| Tx:11.38 | love's presence, for it could not respond at all. You would have to | abandon the ego's guidance, for it would be quite apparent that it |
| Tx:11.80 | is the only answer. God would reunite you with yourself and did not | abandon you in your seeming distress. You are waiting only for Him |
| Tx:14.61 | can hardly judge the truth and value of this course. Yet God did not | abandon you. And so you have another lesson sent from Him, already |
| Tx:14.66 | He will take His rightful place in your awareness the instant you | abandon it and offer it to Him. |
| Tx:14.74 | If you want peace, you must | abandon the teacher of attack. The Teacher of peace will never |

| Tx:19.96 | It seems to you the world will utterly | abandon you if you but raise your eyes. Yet all that will occur is |
| Tx:29.9 | and nothing less. Without the fear of God, what could induce you to | abandon Him? What toys or trinkets in the gap could serve to hold you |
| Tx:31.42 | from what you are. For God is merciful and did not let His Son | abandon Him. For what He is, be thankful, for in that is your escape |
| W1:64.1 | you with a justification for forgetting it. It is the temptation to | abandon God and His Son, taking on a physical appearance. It is this |

| Tx:6.69 | conflicts with the upside-down perception which you have not yet | abandoned, or the change in direction would not have been necessary. |
| Tx:14.73 | you think you know, peace will depart from you because you have | abandoned the Teacher of Peace. Whenever you fully realize that you |
| Tx:15.75 | It is clearly insane to believe that by communicating you will be | abandoned. And yet you do believe it. For you think that your minds |
| Tx:20.50 | and of love's condemnation. For here is love made fearful and hope | abandoned. Even the idols that are worshiped here are shrouded in |

| Tx:10.2 | delusional system in which you made your own father. Make no mistake | about this. It sounds insane when it is stated with perfect honesty, |
| Tx:10.46 | its goal of autonomy is nothing else. The ego is totally confused | about reality, but it does not lose sight of its goal. It is much |
| Tx:10.60 | the same and are answered together. There has been much confusion | about what perception means because the same word is used both for |
| Tx:11.7 | of reality, Who understands what it is. He does not change His Mind | about reality because reality does not change. Although your |
| Tx:11.14 | but which they are denying to themselves. If they knew the truth | about themselves, they could not be sick. The task of the |
| Tx:11.17 | Remember what we said | about the frightening perceptions of little children which terrify |
| Tx:11.28 | way to save it. Any response other than love arises from a confusion | about the “what” and the “how” of salvation, and this is the only |
| Tx:11.69 | for opposition are true, for they attest only to your decision | about reality, returning to you the message you gave them. Love is |
| Tx:12.8 | of redemption, and you believe it will kill you. Make no mistake | about the depth of your fear. For you believe that in the presence of |
| Tx:12.23 | should be apparent. For this is a course on love because it is | about you. You have been told that your function in this world is |
| Tx:12.63 | You have been wrong | about the world because you have misjudged yourself. From such a |
| Tx:12.64 | this distracted world but has seen some glimpses of the other world | about him. Yet while he still lays value on his own, he will deny the |
| Tx:12.65 | pain as God Himself, Who watches over him in everything. The world | about him shines with love because God placed him in Himself where |
| Tx:12.65 | can never be. In perfect sanity he looks on love, for it is all | about him and within him. He must deny the world of pain the instant |
| Tx:12.65 | of love around him. And from this point of safety, he looks quietly | about him and recognizes that the world is one with him. |
| Tx:13.2 | quite apparent if you consider this: There is nothing partial | about knowledge. Every aspect is whole, and therefore no aspect is |
| Tx:13.64 | with all your thinking. The happy learner cannot feel guilty | about learning. This is so essential to learning that it should never |
| Tx:13.76 | not of salvation, for you do not understand it. Make no decisions | about what it is or where it lies, but ask of the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.80 | and it is done. For His decisions are reflections of what God knows | about you, and in this light, error of any kind becomes impossible. |
| Tx:13.90 | Decide that God is right and you are wrong | about yourself. He created you out of Himself but still within Him. |
| Tx:14.26 | only this belief that the unknowing have, and by it they are wrong | about themselves. They have defined themselves as they were not |
| Tx:14.49 | wiser or more productive and valuable than others. And this is true | about the thoughts which cross the mind of those who think they live |
| Tx:15.25 | There is no doubt | about what your function is, for the Holy Spirit knows what it is. |
| Tx:15.25 | function is, for the Holy Spirit knows what it is. There is no doubt | about its magnitude, for it reaches you through Him from Magnitude. |
| Tx:15.28 | you can be content with littleness are the decisions you have made | about yourself. The power and the glory that lie in you from God are |
| Tx:15.75 | is not communication. And if you think it is, you will feel guilty | about communication and will be afraid to hear the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:16.2 | increase itself by sharing what is like itself.] Make no mistake | about this maneuver; the ego always empathizes to weaken, and to |
| Tx:16.6 | This is not knowledge, and the form of empathy that would bring this | about is so distorted that it would imprison what it would release. |
| Tx:16.11 | There is a tendency to fragment and then to be concerned | about the truth of just a little part of the whole. And this is but a |
| Tx:16.12 | they do not remember what is natural to them. And when you are told | about it, you cannot understand it. The recognition of the part as |
| Tx:17.16 | these relationships have as their purpose the exclusion of the truth | about the other and of yourself. This is why you see in both what is |
| Tx:17.23 | not and as it is not. Give the past to Him Who can change your mind | about it for you. But first be sure you fully realize what you have |
| Tx:17.30 | enabled it to be healed. This blessing holds within itself the truth | about everything. And the truth is that the Holy Spirit is in close |
| Tx:17.43 | of the holy instant in living in this world. Like everything | about salvation, the holy instant is a practical device, witnessed to |
| Tx:17.47 | a radical shift in purpose could induce a complete change of mind | about what the whole relationship is for. As this change develops and |
| Tx:17.66 | it is their intrusion on the relationship, an error in your thoughts | about the situation, which then becomes the justification for your |
| Tx:18.9 | ground in which no substitution can enter and where only the truth | about each other can abide. Here you are joined in God, as much |
| Tx:18.43 | Yet it is possible because God wills it. Nor will He change His Mind | about it. The means and purpose both belong to Him. You have accepted |
| Tx:18.91 | you, assuring you that it is all there. Figures stand out and move | about, actions seem real, and forms appear and shift from loveliness |
| Tx:19.77 | it was offered you, and you accepted. Yet you must learn still more | about this strange devotion, for it contains the third of the |
| Tx:20.10 | The Holy Spirit's vision is no idle gift, no plaything to be tossed | about a while and laid aside. Listen and hear this carefully, nor |
| Tx:20.58 | We have said much | about discrepancies of means and end and how these must be brought in |
| Tx:20.63 | imagined in the darkness, and it is here that the illusions you hold | about him are not held up to his reality. Here are illusions and |
| Tx:20.65 | no illusion. Attempt to see him not in darkness, for your imaginings | about him will seem real there. You closed your eyes to shut him out. |
| Tx:20.73 | you made it up? What if you realized that those who seem to walk | about in it, to sin and die, attack and murder and destroy |
| Tx:21.1 | seek not to change the world, but will to change your mind | about the world. Perception is a result, not a cause. And that is why |
| Tx:21.6 | world by their adjustments to it. They think they know their way | about in it. They learned it, not through joyous lessons, but through |
| Tx:21.33 | is he faithless to himself, but strong in faith in his illusions | about himself. For faith, perception, and belief you made as means |
| Tx:21.59 | the belief. For uncorrected error of any kind deceives you | about the power that is in you to make correction. If it can correct |
| Tx:22.10 | him, and they with him. And the strange, shifting ones he sees | about him will become to him his comforters, and he will recognize |
| Tx:22.47 | Only uncertainty can be defensive. And all uncertainty is doubt | about yourself. |
| Tx:22.50 | Forget not, when you feel the need arise to be defensive | about anything, you have identified yourself with an illusion. And |
| Tx:22.60 | more powerful than you. Let us look straight at how this error came | about, for here lies buried the heavy anchor that seems to keep the |
| Tx:23.5 | For who can know his glory and perceive the little and the weak | about him? Who can walk trembling in a fearful world and realize that |
| Tx:23.13 | know when you have learned you cannot be in conflict. One illusion | about yourself can battle with another, yet the war of two illusions |
| Tx:23.24 | believing it. It is not seen as even necessary that He be asked | about the truth of what has been established for His belief. His Son |
| Tx:24.17 | defense against himself will vanish as his mind accepts the truth | about himself as it returns to take their place. This is the only |
| Tx:24.28 | and overblown it seems to be, it still must rock and turn and whirl | about with every breeze. |
| Tx:24.48 | must be doubt before there can be conflict. And every doubt must be | about yourself. Christ has no doubt, and from His certainty His quiet |
| Tx:24.49 | this is so lies in your brother, offered you that all your doubts | about yourself may disappear before his holiness. See in him God's |
| Tx:24.51 | the world began and as He knows you still. God changes not His Mind | about His Son with passing circumstance, which has no meaning in |
| Tx:24.55 | set forever in your brother's holiness that you might see the truth | about yourself set forth at last in terms you recognized and |
| Tx:26.37 | is there to hear where he is now? And how much can his own delusions | about time and place affect a change in where he really is? The |
| Tx:26.58 | a treasure? Can uncertainty be what you want? Or is it a mistake | about your will and what you really are? Let us consider what the |
| Tx:27.7 | body seeks to show how lovely are the witnesses for guilt. Concerns | about the body demonstrate how frail and vulnerable is your life, how |
| Tx:27.22 | your function with the function of Another, you must be confused | about yourself and who you are. What is the separation but a wish to |
| Tx:27.68 | in any way request them for yourself. This is how all illusions come | about. The one who makes them does not see himself as making them, |
| Tx:27.71 | between a tiny you and an enormous world, with different dreams | about the truth in you. The gap between reality and dreams lies not |
| Tx:27.75 | in your dreams on his mistakes. Select his thoughtfulness to dream | about instead of counting up the hurts he gave. Forgive him his |
| Tx:27.78 | and collect more senseless things that it can call its own. It looks | about for special bodies which can share its dream. Sometimes it |
| Tx:28.6 | the other attributes with which you seek to keep concealed the truth | about yourself. Time neither takes away nor can restore. And yet you |
| Tx:28.17 | which are as limitless as is itself. Yet must all healing come | about because the mind is recognized as not within the body, and its |
| Tx:28.25 | dream; the world is neutral, and the bodies which still seem to move | about as separate things need not be feared. And so they are not sick. |
| Tx:29.10 | until you understand there is no loss, you will have some regrets | about the way that you have chosen. And you will not see the many |
| Tx:29.44 | this cannot be so. And therefore by his coming, he denies the truth | about himself and seeks for something more than everything, as if a |
| Tx:29.44 | him what would make himself complete. And thus he wanders aimlessly | about in search of something that he cannot find, believing that he |
| Tx:29.46 | the body's betterment is cast as major beneficiary, you try to bring | about your death. For you believe that you can suffer lack, and lack |
| Tx:29.64 | pretend they rule the world and give their toys the power to move | about and talk and think and feel and speak for them. Yet everything |
| Tx:30.2 | dedication weak, you are not ready. Do not fight yourself. But think | about the kind of day you want and tell yourself there is a way in |
| Tx:30.24 | Now you have changed your mind | about the day and have remembered what you really want. Its purpose |
| Tx:30.52 | His laws which guarantee your safety. All illusions that you believe | about yourself obey no laws. They seem to dance a little while, |
| Tx:30.54 | you will understand that mighty changes have been quickly brought | about when you decide one very simple thing—you do not want |
| Tx:30.75 | appearances are real and not appearances at all. Be not deceived | about the meaning of a fixed belief that some appearances are harder |
| Tx:30.76 | And so there cannot be appearances which have replaced the truth | about God's Son. |
| Tx:30.78 | There is no way to think of him but this if you would know the truth | about yourself: |
| Tx:30.81 | image and a sign of death. Is this your savior? Is his Father wrong | about His Son? Or have you been deceived in him who has been given |
| Tx:30.90 | views of him which you perceive as his reality. The happy dream | about him takes the form of the appearance of his perfect health, his |
| Tx:30.93 | Is it this that you would look upon? Then let there be no dreams | about him which you would prefer to seeing this. And you will see the |
| Tx:31.19 | is what I am asking for. And what I learn of him is what I learn | about myself. |
| Tx:31.21 | not ancient thoughts. Forget the dismal lessons that you learned | about this Son of God who calls to you. Christ calls to all with |
| Tx:31.23 | appearances, which are but ancient lessons that you taught yourself | about the sinfulness in you. Hear but his call for mercy and release |
| Tx:31.54 | There are alternatives | about the thing that you must be. You might for instance be the thing |
| Tx:31.56 | that everything it thinks reflects the deep confusion that it feels | about how it was made and what it is. And vaguely does the concept of |
| Tx:31.65 | matters not where you believe you are nor what you think the truth | about yourself must really be. It makes no difference what you look |
| Tx:31.69 | You cannot give yourself your innocence, for you are too confused | about yourself. But should one brother dawn upon your sight as wholly |
| W1:3.2 | appear to you now, and to realize how little you really understand | about them. It is therefore essential that you keep a perfectly open |
| W1:4.1 | begin with noting the thoughts that are crossing your mind for | about a minute. Then apply the idea to them. If you are already aware |
| W1:4.4 | This thought | about _____ does not mean anything. It is like the things I see in |
| W1:5.11 | I am not worried | about ____ for the reason I think. I am not depressed about ____ for |
| W1:5.11 | am not worried about ____ for the reason I think. I am not depressed | about ____ for the reason I think. |
| W1:6.2 | at ____ because I see something that is not there. I am worried | about ____ because I see something that is not there. |
| W1:7.8 | Old ideas | about time are very difficult to change because everything you |
| W1:7.8 | is rooted in time and depends on your not learning these new ideas | about it. Yet that is precisely why you need new ideas about time. |
| W1:7.8 | new ideas about it. Yet that is precisely why you need new ideas | about time. This first time idea is not really so strange as it may |
| W1:7.9 | or not this kind of cup will break if you drop it? What do you know | about this cup except what you learned in the past? You would have no |
| W1:7.10 | Look | about you. This is equally true of whatever you look at. Acknowledge |
| W1:8.1 | preoccupation with the past is the cause of the total misconception | about time from which your seeing suffers. Your mind cannot grasp the |
| W1:8.2 | The only wholly true thought one can hold | about the past is that it is not here. To think about it at all is |
| W1:8.2 | thought one can hold about the past is that it is not here. To think | about it at all is therefore to think about illusions. Very few minds |
| W1:8.2 | that it is not here. To think about it at all is therefore to think | about illusions. Very few minds have realized what is actually |
| W1:8.2 | actually blank when it does this because it is not really thinking | about anything. |
| W1:8.5 | I seem to be thinking | about _____. |
| W1:8.7 | I seem to be thinking | about [name of person], about [name of object], about [name of |
| W1:8.7 | I seem to be thinking about [name of person], | about [name of object], about [name of emotion]; |
| W1:8.7 | I seem to be thinking about [name of person], about [name of object], | about [name of emotion]; |
| W1:9.3 | which three or four practice periods are sufficient, involve looking | about you and applying the idea for the day to whatever you see, |
| W1:10.7 | This thought | about _____ does not mean anything. That thought about _____ does not |
| W1:10.7 | This thought about _____ does not mean anything. That thought | about _____ does not mean anything. |
| W1:11.2 | and repeat the idea slowly to yourself. Then open your eyes and look | about, near or far, up or down—anywhere. During the minute or so to |
| W1:12.3 | As you look | about you, say to yourself: |
| W1:13.4 | The exercises for today, which should be done | about three or four times for not more than a minute or so at most |
| W1:13.4 | repeat today's idea to yourself. Then open your eyes and look | about you slowly, saying: |
| W1:13.6 | Repeat this statement to yourself as you look | about. Then close your eyes and conclude with: |
| W1:14.6 | include anything you are afraid might happen to you or to anyone | about whom you are concerned. In each case, name the “disaster” quite |
| W1:16.3 | fear thoughts as unimportant, trivial, and not worth bothering | about that it is essential you recognize them all as equally |
| W1:16.6 | This thought | about _____ is not a neutral thought. That thought about _____ is not |
| W1:16.6 | This thought about _____ is not a neutral thought. That thought | about _____ is not a neutral thought. |
| W1:16.8 | This thought | about _____ is not a neutral thought, because I have no neutral |
| W1:17.4 | Then look | about you, resting your glance on each thing that catches your eye |
| W1:17.5 | I do not see a neutral _____, because my thoughts | about _____ are not neutral. |
| W1:17.7 | I do not see a neutral wall, because my thoughts | about walls are not neutral. I do not see a neutral body, because my |
| W1:17.7 | are not neutral. I do not see a neutral body, because my thoughts | about bodies are not neutral. |
| W1:19.4 | I am not alone in experiencing the effects of this thought | about ___. |
| W1:20.1 | We have been quite casual | about our practice periods thus far. There has been virtually no |
| W1:22.1 | world. Having projected his anger onto the world, he sees vengeance | about to strike at him. His own attack is thus perceived as self |
| W1:22.3 | Look at the world | about you at least five times today, for at least a minute each time. |
| W1:23.2 | an effect. But there is indeed a point in changing your thoughts | about the world. Here you are changing the cause. The effects will |
| W1:23.6 | practice periods are required in applying today's idea. As you look | about you, repeat the idea slowly to yourself and then close your |
| W1:23.6 | the idea slowly to yourself and then close your eyes and devote | about a minute to searching your mind for as many attack thoughts as |
| W1:23.7 | I can escape from the world by giving up attack thoughts | about _____. |
| W1:24.4 | by searching the mind with closed eyes for unresolved situations | about which you are currently concerned. The emphasis should be on |
| W1:25.6 | with a slow repetition of the idea for today followed by looking | about you and letting your glance rest on whatever happens to catch |
| W1:26.8 | I am concerned | about ______. |
| W1:27.1 | It gives vision priority among your desires. You may feel hesitant | about using the idea on the ground that you are not sure you really |
| W1:27.2 | when you say you want to see above all else. If you become uneasy | about the lack of reservation involved, add: |
| W1:28.2 | And what does “in itself” mean? You see a lot of separate things | about you, which really means you are not seeing at all. You either |
| W1:28.3 | you are making a commitment to withdraw your preconceived ideas | about the table and open your mind to what it is and what it is for. |
| W1:28.5 | value, full of happiness and hope. Hidden under all your ideas | about it is its real purpose, the purpose it shares with all the |
| W1:28.7 | day is stated first and then applied to whatever you see in looking | about you. Not only should the subjects be chosen randomly, but each |
| W1:29.4 | the idea to yourself, and then apply it to randomly chosen subjects | about you, naming each one specifically. Try to avoid the tendency |
| W1:29.7 | repeat the idea for today at least once an hour, looking slowly | about you as you say the words unhurriedly to yourself. At least once |
| W1:30.3 | you have a moment or so, repeat it to yourself slowly, looking | about you and trying to realize that the idea applies to everything |
| W1:31.2 | minutes for each of them are recommended. During that time, look | about you slowly while repeating the idea two or three times. Then |
| W1:34.3 | situations, “offending” personalities or events, or anything else | about which you are harboring unloving thoughts. Note them all |
| W1:34.8 | replace my feelings of depression, anxiety or worry [or my thoughts | about this situation, personality, or event] with peace. |
| W1:35.5 | your mind. Try to recognize that the direction of your fantasies | about yourself does not matter. Illusions have no direction in |
| W1:36.3 | several times slowly. Then open your eyes and look quite slowly | about you, applying the idea specifically to whatever you note in |
| W1:36.6 | shorter exercise periods, close your eyes and repeat the idea; look | about you as you repeat it again; and conclude with one more |
| W1:37.4 | of the idea for today followed by a minute or so of looking | about you as you apply the idea to whatever you see: |
| W1:39.3 | already said that your holiness is the salvation of the world. What | about your own salvation? You cannot give what you do not have. A |
| W1:39.9 | My unloving thoughts | about _____ are keeping me in hell. My holiness is my salvation. |
| W1:41.8 | what the words mean. Concentrate on the holiness which they imply | about you; on the unfailing companionship which is yours; on the |
| W1:42.4 | by repeating the idea for today slowly with eyes open, looking | about you. Then close your eyes and repeat the idea again, quite |
| W1:42.7 | open your eyes and repeat the thought once more while looking slowly | about; close your eyes, repeat the idea once more, and then continue |
| W1:50.3 | from the belief in idols. It is your acknowledgment of the truth | about yourself. |
| W1:50.4 | idea for today sink deep into your consciousness. Repeat it, think | about it, let related thoughts come to help you recognize its truth, |
| W1:R1.2 | once. Devote two minutes or more to each practice period, thinking | about the idea and the related comments. Do this as often as possible |
| W1:R1.3 | periods. Rather, try merely to emphasize the central point and think | about it as part of your review of the idea to which it relates. |
| W1:52.3 | [7] I see only the past. As I look | about, I condemn the world I look upon. I call this seeing. I hold |
| W1:55.6 | for. To me, the purpose of everything is to prove that my illusions | about myself are real. It is for that purpose that I attempt to use |
| W1:55.6 | by withdrawing the one I have given it, and learning the truth | about it. |
| W1:57.6 | back at me. In this light, I begin to see what my illusions | about myself had kept hidden. I begin to understand the holiness of |
| W1:58.2 | see myself as guilty. I can accept the innocence that is the truth | about me. Seen through understanding eyes, the holiness of the world |
| W1:58.2 | the world is all I see, for I can picture only the thoughts I hold | about myself. |
| W1:58.4 | from except illusions? And what are all illusions except false ideas | about myself? My holiness undoes them all by asserting the truth |
| W1:58.4 | about myself? My holiness undoes them all by asserting the truth | about me. In the presence of my holiness, which I share with God |
| W1:59.2 | love and joy surround me through Him? Let me not cherish illusions | about myself. I am perfect because God goes with me wherever I go. |
| W1:61.1 | except God's Son? This, then, is merely a statement of the truth | about yourself. It is the opposite of a statement of pride, of |
| W1:61.4 | You will want to think | about this idea as often as possible today. It is the perfect answer |
| W1:61.4 | therefore to all temptation. It brings all the images you have made | about yourself to the truth and helps you depart in peace, unburdened |
| W1:61.7 | Then think | about these statements for a short while, preferably with your eyes |
| W1:61.8 | period. Thus you will awaken with an acknowledgment of the truth | about yourself, reinforce it throughout the day, and turn to sleep as |
| W1:62.1 | are the light of the world. Through your forgiveness does the truth | about yourself return to your memory. Therefore in your forgiveness |
| W1:62.2 | Illusions | about yourself and the world are one. That is why all forgiveness is |
| W1:64.10 | several minutes to reviewing these thoughts and then to thinking | about them and about nothing else. This will be difficult at first |
| W1:64.10 | to reviewing these thoughts and then to thinking about them and | about nothing else. This will be difficult at first particularly, |
| W1:64.11 | open after reviewing the thoughts and look slowly and unselectively | about you, telling yourself: |
| W1:65.14 | your eyes as you practice, and sometimes keep them open and look | about you. It is what you see now that will be totally changed when |
| W1:66.2 | your function is. So does it do constant battle with the Holy Spirit | about what your happiness is. It is not a two-way battle. The ego |
| W1:66.3 | to go past this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the truth | about your function. We will not engage in ceaseless arguments about |
| W1:66.3 | truth about your function. We will not engage in ceaseless arguments | about what it is. We will not become hopelessly involved in defining |
| W1:66.7 | are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let us, then, think | about the premises for a while, as we are practicing. |
| W1:66.11 | Think | about this during the longer practice period today. Think also about |
| W1:66.11 | Think about this during the longer practice period today. Think also | about the many forms which the illusion of your function has taken in |
| W1:66.12 | to madness or hear the truth. Try to make this choice as you think | about the premises on which our conclusion rests. We can share in |
| W1:66.16 | a minute, and probably less, to repeat these words slowly and think | about them a little while you say them. |
| W1:67.2 | We will make every effort today to reach this truth | about you and to realize fully, if only for a moment, that it is the |
| W1:67.2 | that it is the truth. In the longer practice period, we will think | about your reality and its wholly unchanged and unchangeable nature. |
| W1:67.2 | and unchangeable nature. We will begin by repeating this truth | about you and then spend a few minutes adding some relevant thoughts, |
| W1:67.5 | and then try to reach past all your images and preconceptions | about yourself to the truth in you. If Love created you like Itself, |
| W1:67.6 | that you need to continue adding other thoughts related to the truth | about yourself. Yet perhaps you will succeed in going past that and |
| W1:67.7 | the idea for today as often as you can. You need to hear the truth | about yourself as frequently as possible because your mind is so |
| W1:67.7 | to remind yourself that Love created you like Itself. Hear the truth | about yourself in this. |
| W1:67.8 | is the Voice of truth replacing everything that the ego tells you | about yourself with the simple truth about the Son of God. You were |
| W1:67.8 | that the ego tells you about yourself with the simple truth | about the Son of God. You were created by Love like Itself. |
| W1:69.2 | extended practice period, let us devote several minutes in thinking | about what we are trying to do. We are literally attempting to get in |
| W1:69.6 | After you have thought | about the importance of what you are trying to do for yourself and |
| W1:71.7 | God's plan for salvation will work. There can be no real conflict | about this, because there is no possible alternative to God's plan |
| W1:71.9 | Begin the two longer practice periods for today by thinking | about today's idea, and realizing that it contains two parts, each |
| W1:74.9 | difficult to resolve, single it out for special consideration. Think | about it briefly but very specifically, identify the particular |
| W1:74.10 | There is no will but God's. I share it with Him. My conflicts | about _____ cannot be real. |
| W1:76.11 | you thought you saw. Then listen further. He will tell you more. | About the love your Father has for you. About the endless joy He |
| W1:76.11 | He will tell you more. About the love your Father has for you. | About the endless joy He offers you. About His yearning for His only |

| W1:77.2 | Your claim to miracles does not lie in your illusions | about yourself. It does not depend on any magical powers you have |
| W1:79.3 | yourselves now. You have the answer, but you are still uncertain | about what the problem is. A long series of different problems seems |
| W1:79.8 | is not necessary. All that is necessary is to entertain some doubt | about the reality of our version of what our problems are. We are |

| W1:86.2 | for salvation will work. It is senseless for me to search wildly | about for salvation. I have seen it in many people and in many |
| W1:86.2 | things, but when I reached for it, it was not there. I was mistaken | about where it is. I was mistaken about what it is. I will undertake |
| W1:86.2 | it was not there. I was mistaken about where it is. I was mistaken | about what it is. I will undertake no more idle seeking. Only God's |
| W1:87.2 | I will use the power of my will today. It is not my will to grope | about in darkness, fearful of shadows and afraid of things unseen and |
| W1:91.5 | Three times today, set aside | about ten minutes for a quiet time in which you try to leave your |
| W1:91.10 | and then devote several minutes to allowing your mistaken thoughts | about your attributes to be corrected, and their opposites to take |
| W1:91.12 | second phase of the exercise period, try to experience these truths | about yourself. Concentrate particularly on the experience of |
| W1:92.3 | It is your weakness that sees through the body's eyes, peering | about in darkness to behold the likeness of itself—the small, the |
| W1:92.5 | Strength is the truth | about you; weakness is an idol falsely worshiped and adored that |
| W1:93.1 | of evil, darkness, and sin. You think if anyone could see the truth | about you he would be repelled, recoiling from you as if from a |
| W1:93.1 | from you as if from a poisonous snake. You think if what is true | about you were revealed to you, you would be struck with horror so |
| W1:93.7 | you are as God created you. Whatever mistakes you made, the truth | about you is unchanged. Creation is eternal and unalterable. Your |
| W1:93.8 | minutes of every waking hour, we will begin by stating the truth | about our creation: |
| W1:93.14 | your eyes and realizing that this is a statement of the truth | about you. |
| W1:95.5 | you are reminded of your purpose frequently, you tend to forget | about it for long periods of time. You often fail to remember the |
| W1:95.17 | and let the light in you come through to teach the world the truth | about itself. You are One Self, in perfect harmony with all there is |
| W1:96.10 | Wait patiently, and let Him speak to you | about your Self, and what your mind can do, restored to it and free |
| W1:97.2 | We state again the truth | about your Self, the holy Son of God who rests in you whose mind has |
| W1:R3.4 | whatever reason should be done as soon as you have changed your mind | about your goal. You are unwilling to cooperate in practicing |
| W1:R3.5 | are written first in each day's exercise. And then begin to think | about them while letting your mind relate them to your needs, your |
| W1:121.2 | and release from pain. It suffers and abides in misery, peering | about in darkness, seeing not, yet certain of the danger lurking |
| W1:121.3 | The unforgiving mind is torn with doubt, confused | about itself and all it sees, afraid and angry, weak and blustering, |

| W1:126.1 | is crucial to the thought reversal which this course will bring | about. If you believed this statement, there would be no problem in |
| W1:129.2 | It might be worth a little time to think once more | about the value of this world. Perhaps you will concede there is no |
| W1:131.1 | Failure is all | about you while you seek for goals that cannot be achieved. You look |
| W1:132.11 | To free the world from every kind of pain is but to change your mind | about yourself. There is no world apart from your ideas because ideas |
| W1:132.15 | purpose is to free the world from all the idle thoughts we ever held | about it and about all living things we see upon it. They cannot be |
| W1:132.15 | free the world from all the idle thoughts we ever held about it and | about all living things we see upon it. They cannot be there—no |
| W1:133.12 | is overlaid with many levels of obscurity. If you feel any guilt | about your choice, you have allowed the ego's goals to come between |
| W1:136.21 | allowing your defensiveness to hurt you longer. Do not be confused | about what must be healed, but tell yourself: |
| W1:138.8 | terror and anxiety so strong that it will not relinquish its ideas | about its own protection. It must be saved from salvation, threatened |
| W1:139.2 | certainty it looks on other things as certain as itself. Uncertainty | about what you must be is self-deception on a scale so vast its |
| W1:139.9 | Atonement, not to change reality, but merely to accept the truth | about yourself and go your way rejoicing in the endless Love of God. |
| W1:140.8 | Today we seek to change our minds | about the source of sickness, for we seek a cure for all illusions, |
| W1:152.3 | cannot have an opposite. This cannot be too often said and thought | about. For if what is not true is true as well as what is true, then |

| W1:166.5 | at what is given him. He wanders on, aware of the futility he sees | about him everywhere, perceiving how his little lot but dwindles as |
| W1:166.10 | you have imprisoned in your plan to lose your Self. He does not know | about a plan so alien to His Will. There was a need He did not |
| W1:167.3 | idea is due to its centrality in our attempts to change your mind | about yourself. It is the reason you can heal. It is the cause of |
| W1:170.6 | of your peace, to which you turn for solace and escape from doubts | about your strength and hope of rest in dreamless quiet. And as love |
| W1:170.10 | the escape from fear. Let us remember what the course has stressed | about the obstacles to peace. The final one, the hardest to believe |
| W1:181.3 | this we seek and only this, for just a little while. We do not care | about our future goals, and what we saw an instant previous has no |
| W1:182.3 | who walks this world, for he is not at home. He goes uncertainly | about in endless search, seeking in darkness what he cannot find, not |
| W1:185.3 | outcome wanted not the same for both. Loser and gainer merely shift | about in changing patterns, as the ratio of gain to loss and loss to |
| W1:189.7 | of what you are and what God is, all concepts you have learned | about the world, all images you hold about yourself. Empty your mind |
| W1:189.7 | all concepts you have learned about the world, all images you hold | about yourself. Empty your mind of everything it thinks is either |
| W1:191.12 | light that saves the world. Do not withhold salvation longer. Look | about the world, and see the suffering there. Is not your heart |
| W1:193.15 | and we would linger here no more. And as we practice, let us think | about all things we saved to settle by ourselves and kept apart from |
| W1:194.2 | blackness of depression, thoughts of sin, and devastation brought | about by guilt. Accept today's idea, and you have released the world |
| W1:195.9 | of merciless pursuit where we are badgered ceaselessly and pushed | about without a thought or care for us or for our future. Gratitude |
| W1:200.5 | you beheld but chains and iron doors. For you must change your mind | about the purpose of the world if you would find escape. You will be |

| W2:231.1 | to find. Let me remember You. What else could I desire but the truth | about myself? |
| W2:237.1 | Today I will accept the truth | about myself. I will arise in glory and allow the light in me to |
| W2:239.1 | Let not the truth | about ourselves today be hidden by a false humility. Let us instead |
| W2:248.1 | What dies was never living in reality and did but mock the truth | about myself. Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about |
| W2:248.1 | truth about myself. Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies | about the holy Son of God. Now am I ready to accept him back as God |
| W2:256.1 | who he is? And who would yet remain asleep in heavy clouds of doubt | about the holiness of him whom God created sinless? Here we can but |
| W2:262.2 | We who are one would recognize this day the truth | about ourselves. We would come home and rest in unity. For there is |
| W2:278.2 | I ask for nothing but the truth. I have had many foolish thoughts | about myself and my creation and have brought a dream of fear into my |

| M:1.4 | and it is this that the teachers of God are appointed to bring | about. For time is in their hands. Such was their choice, and it is |
| M:3.3 | other. In time, the teacher of God seems to begin to change his mind | about the world with the single decision, and then learns more and |
| M:3.3 | the world with the single decision, and then learns more and more | about the new direction as he teaches it. We have covered the |

| M:6.4 | It is the relinquishing of all concern | about the gift that makes it truly given. And it is trust that makes |
| M:6.4 | guaranteed by God. What concern, then, can a teacher of God have | about what becomes of his gifts? Given by God to God, who in this |
| M:7.1 | what is there to repeat? For a teacher of God to remain concerned | about the result of healing is to limit the healing. It is now the |
| M:7.1 | He has made a mistake and must be willing to change his mind | about it. He lacked the trust that makes for giving truly, and so he |

| M:7.6 | what you are has entered your mind, and you have become deceived | about yourself. And you are deceived about yourself, because you have |

| M:10.6 | the instant he recognizes its cost. All of the ugliness he sees | about him is its outcome. All of the pain he looks upon is its |
| M:11.2 | Word of God is more likely to be true. For they say different things | about the world, and things so opposite that it is pointless to try |
| M:13.2 | in the world's terms that does not involve the body. Think a while | about what the world calls sacrifice. Power, fame, money, physical |
| M:13.3 | Word could this be possible. For self-condemnation is a decision | about identity, and no one doubts what he believes he is. He can |
| M:13.6 | And it is the course's aim to set him free. But do not be mistaken | about what sacrifice means. It always means the giving up of what you |
| M:16.2 | But what | about those who have not reached his certainty? They are not yet |
| M:17.6 | you. Do not remember the immensity of the “enemy,” and do not think | about your frailty in comparison. Accept your separation, but do not |
| M:17.6 | comparison. Accept your separation, but do not remember how it came | about. Believe that you have won it, but do not retain the slightest |
| M:18.1 | with fact or illusion with truth. If he argues with his pupil | about a magic thought, attacks it, tries to establish its error or |
| M:18.2 | wholly without anger. Only in this way can they proclaim the truth | about themselves. Through them, the Holy Spirit can now speak of the |
| M:19.3 | brothers and yourself, all fears of future states, and all concern | about the past stem from injustice. Here is the lens which, held |
| M:21.5 | in this aspect of his learning is the teacher of God's fear | about the validity of what he hears. And what he hears may indeed be |
| M:22.6 | sick. It is your function to recognize for him that what he believes | about himself is not the truth. It is your forgiveness that must show |
| M:23.3 | your own success. Is he still available for help? What did he say | about this? Remember his promises, and ask yourself honestly whether |
| M:24.1 | eternal nature of life, it is helpful indeed. Is any other question | about it really useful in lighting up the way? Like many other |
| M:24.4 | to any concept or belief that will be helpful, he will be told | about it. He will also be told how to use it. What more need he know? |
| M:25.5 | It is almost inevitable that, unless the individual changes his mind | about its purpose, he will bolster its uncertainties with increasing |
| M:28.1 | of death. It is a reawakening or a rebirth, a change of mind | about the meaning of the world. It is the acceptance of the Holy |
| M:28.6 | judgment is. And in His Final Judgment is restored the truth | about the holy Son of God. He is redeemed, for he has heard God's |
| M:29.2 | to Him is yours. Would you want to be responsible for decisions | about which you understand so little? Be glad you have a Teacher Who |
| M:29.4 | image you made of yourself has none. The Holy Spirit knows the truth | about you. The image you made does not. Yet despite its obvious and |

| Tx:3.37 | To create as He created, you can create only what you know and | accept as yours. God knows His Children with perfect certainty. He |

| Tx:4.71 | ego sponsors eagerly. Yet the ego hates the body because it does not | accept the idea that the body is good enough to be its home. Here is |
| Tx:4.79 | of understanding. It is a symptom of the psychologist's ability to | accept as reasonable a compromise which is clearly senseless—to |
| Tx:4.100 | you should tell Him how wonderful He is. He has no ego with which to | accept such thanks and no perception with which to judge such |
| Tx:5.6 | he reinforces it in your mind, and thus increases it. If you can | accept the concept that the world is one of ideas, the whole belief |
| Tx:5.40 | as knowledge derives meaning from relationships. Those which you | accept are the foundations of your beliefs. The separation is merely |
| Tx:5.44 | knowledge of your real relationships to them, because you did not | accept them as part of you. Understanding is beyond perception |
| Tx:5.63 | Whatever you | accept into your mind has reality for you. It is, however, only your |

| Tx:13.27 | without reason, you will not fear to look upon the Atonement and | accept it wholly. |
| Tx:13.62 | light which shines away the shapes and forms and fears of nothing. | Accept this key to freedom from the hands of Christ Who gives it to |
| Tx:13.67 | to my acceptance of the Atonement, not for its rejection. I would | accept my guiltlessness by making it manifest and sharing it. Let me |
| Tx:13.72 | with this oneness only when you learn to deny the causeless and | accept the Cause of God as yours. The power that God has given to His |
| Tx:13.73 | a constellation larger than anything you ever dreamed of. Those who | accept the Atonement are invulnerable. But those who believe they are |
| Tx:13.75 | of the gift of God. Ask it not therefore of yourselves. Instead, | accept His answer, for He knows that you are worthy of everything God |
| Tx:13.86 | When you | accept a brother's guiltlessness, you will see the Atonement in him. |
| Tx:14.1 | you know Him. Therefore, you must be guiltless. Yet if you do not | accept the necessary conditions for knowing Him, you have denied Him |
| Tx:14.5 | known? You yearn for Him, as He for you. This is forever changeless. | Accept, then, the immutable. Leave the world of death behind, and |
| Tx:14.15 | there. Judge not except in quietness which is not of you. Refuse to | accept anyone as without the blessing of Atonement, and bring him |
| Tx:14.31 | brightness so intense you could not wish for all the world not to | accept what God would have you have. Behold your will, accepting it |
| Tx:14.46 | of creation must continue forever. The reflections which you | accept into the mirror of your minds in time but bring eternity |
| Tx:14.62 | Every dark lesson that you bring to Him Who teaches light He will | accept from you because you do not want it. And He will gladly |
| Tx:14.63 | with which the Holy Spirit will replace the dark ones you do not | accept and hide, teaches you that you will with the Father unto His |
| Tx:14.68 | lessons from Him. And by so limiting the guidance that you would | accept, you are unable to depend on miracles to answer all your |
| Tx:14.70 | from the past would teach you are free of it. He would but have you | accept His accomplishments as yours because he did them for you. And |
| Tx:15.23 | is much too poor a gift to satisfy you. It is essential that you | accept the fact, and accept it gladly, that there is no form of |
| Tx:15.23 | a gift to satisfy you. It is essential that you accept the fact, and | accept it gladly, that there is no form of littleness that can ever |
| Tx:15.28 | of magnitude that can content them. Neither give littleness, nor | accept it. All honor is due the host of God. Your littleness deceives |
| Tx:15.30 | vain? It is not sacrifice to wake to glory. But it is a sacrifice to | accept anything less than glory. Learn that you must be worthy of the |
| Tx:15.32 | forever with Itself. You will be content with nothing but His Will. | Accept no less, remembering that everything I learned is yours. What |
| Tx:15.32 | is yours. What my Father loves, I love as He does, and I can no more | accept it as what it is not than He can. And no more can you. When |
| Tx:15.32 | it is not than He can. And no more can you. When you have learned to | accept what you are, you will make no more gifts to offer to |
| Tx:15.32 | you will know you are complete, in need of nothing, and unable to | accept anything for yourself. But you will gladly give, having |
| Tx:15.39 | would have me. And the extent to which you learn to be willing to | accept me is the measure of the time in which the holy instant will |
| Tx:15.40 | communication. It therefore seeks to change nothing, but merely to | accept everything. |
| Tx:15.43 | if there were no need for Atonement. You will not be able to | accept perfect communication as long as you would hide it from |
| Tx:15.56 | have while guilt remains. And there will be guilt as long as you | accept the possibility, and cherish it, that you can make a brother |
| Tx:15.57 | You have so little faith in yourself because you are unwilling to | accept the fact that perfect love is in you. And so you seek without |
| Tx:15.59 | faith in Him is strengthened by sharing. What you find difficult to | accept is the fact that, like your Father, you are an idea. And like |
| Tx:15.71 | this sacrifice, which he demanded of himself, he demands the other | accept the guilt and sacrifice himself as well. Forgiveness becomes |
| Tx:15.73 | ego would “bless” all unions. And those who are united at its altar | accept suffering and sacrifice as the price of union. In their angry |
| Tx:15.81 | love. He will not fail you, for He comes from One Who cannot fail. | Accept your sense of failure as nothing more than a mistake in who |
| Tx:15.84 | know and what you do not understand. It is His holy function to | accept them both, and by removing every element of disagreement, to |
| Tx:15.87 | it is necessary to give up every use the ego has for the body and to | accept the fact that the ego has no purpose you would share with it. |
| Tx:15.92 | and let me celebrate your birth through Him. The only gift I can | accept of you is the gift I gave to you. Release me as I will your |
| Tx:15.94 | We who are one cannot give separately. When you are willing to | accept our relationship as real, guilt will hold no attraction for |
| Tx:15.94 | guilt will hold no attraction for you. For in our union, you will | accept all of our brothers. The gift of union is the only gift that I |
| Tx:15.96 | You see no other alternatives, for you cannot | accept the fact that sacrifice gets nothing. Sacrifice is so |
| Tx:15.96 | you must look upon—sacrifice is attack, not love. If you would | accept but this one idea, your fear of love would vanish. Guilt |
| Tx:15.99 | the demand of sacrifice is so savage and so fearful that you cannot | accept it where it is. But the real price of not accepting this has |
| Tx:15.102 | See it not outside yourself but shining in the Heaven within and | accept it as the sign the time of Christ has come. He comes demanding |
| Tx:15.112 | joy and freedom. There is much to do, and we have been long delayed. | Accept the holy instant as this year is born and take your place, so |
| Tx:16.5 | not him. Humility is strength in this sense only—to recognize and | accept the fact that you do not know is to recognize and accept the |
| Tx:16.5 | and accept the fact that you do not know is to recognize and | accept the fact that He does know. You are not sure that He will do |
| Tx:16.14 | what has happened you do not understand but that you are willing to | accept it because it has happened. |
| Tx:16.18 | in the disaster you have made. Today let us resolve together to | accept the joyful tidings that disaster is not real and that reality |
| Tx:16.19 | kind to everyone and everything. There is no greater love than to | accept this and be glad. For love asks only that you be happy and |
| Tx:16.21 | You have taught well, and yet you have not learned how to | accept the comfort of your teaching. If you will consider what you |
| Tx:16.24 | And it is this that you have taken in that is not you. What you | accept into your minds does not really change them. Illusions are but |
| Tx:16.38 | illusions. In any relationship in which you are wholly willing to | accept completion, and only this, there is God completed and His Son |
| Tx:16.39 | rests wholly compatible with His. Every illusion which you | accept into your mind by judging it to be attainable removes your own |
| Tx:16.47 | be no disagreement on this, because both the ego and the Holy Spirit | accept it. They are, however, in complete disagreement on what |
| Tx:16.80 | Him and to His majesty. To join in close relationship with Him is to | accept relationships as real and through their reality to give over |
| Tx:16.81 | Forgive us our illusions, Father, and help us to | accept our true relationship with You in which there are no illusions |
| Tx:16.81 | is not Your will. And let us receive only what you have given and | accept but this into the minds which You created and which You love. |
| Tx:17.36 | your own acceptance of the gift of death. When you who are truth | accept an idea so dangerous to truth, you threaten truth with |
| Tx:17.37 | you from Heaven. It is a picture, too, set in a frame. Yet if you | accept this gift, you will not see the frame at all because the gift |
| Tx:17.39 | picture into the wrong frame and so combine what cannot be combined, | accept this and be glad: these pictures are each framed perfectly for |
| Tx:17.48 | are being introduced. If you believed the Holy Spirit was there to | accept the relationship, why would you now not still believe that He |
| Tx:17.50 | Accept with gladness what you do not understand, and let it be | |
| Tx:17.56 | gladness of the Sonship that it is so. As you begin to recognize and | accept the gifts you have so freely given to each other, you will |
| Tx:17.56 | the gifts you have so freely given to each other, you will also | accept the effects of the holy instant and use them to correct all |
| Tx:17.68 | interferes not with the goal, but with the value of the goal to you. | Accept not the illusion of peace it offers, but look upon its |
| Tx:18.1 | To substitute is to | accept instead. If you would but consider exactly what this entails, |
| Tx:18.10 | so firmly joined in truth that only God is there. And He would never | accept something else instead of you. He loves you both, equally and |
| Tx:18.10 | with you, my brothers. Let us join in Him in peace and gratitude and | accept His gift as our most holy and perfect reality, which we share |
| Tx:18.13 | and uniting comfort. This is offered you in your holy relationship. | Accept it here, and you will give as you have accepted. The peace of |
| Tx:18.17 | blot out reality are very fearful, but this you are not willing to | accept. And so you substitute the fantasy that reality is fearful, |
| Tx:18.39 | there must be more that you need do. [You find it difficult to | accept the idea that you need give so little to receive so much.] And |
| Tx:18.66 | It is impossible to | accept the holy instant without reservation unless just for an |
| Tx:18.77 | Do not | accept this little fenced-off aspect as yourself. The sun and ocean |
| Tx:19.30 | belief that your perception is unchangeable and that the mind must | accept as true what it is told through it. If it does not obey, the |
| Tx:19.39 | His Creator in the name of His most holy Son. And the Father will | accept them in His Name. What need is there of seeing in the presence |
| Tx:19.68 | is but to give the Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to | accept the peace He gave instead, without the limits which would hold |
| Tx:19.69 | forever kind, infinite in its patience, and wholly loving. It will | accept you wholly and give you peace. Yet it can unite only with what |
| Tx:19.98 | together will offer you the innocence you need and that you will | accept it for my love and His. |
| Tx:19.102 | the Holy Spirit is in him. Would you hold his sins against him or | accept his gift to you? Is this giver of salvation your friend or |
| Tx:20.6 | they be truly given and received. For bodies can neither offer nor | accept; hold out nor take. Only the mind can value, and only the mind |
| Tx:20.9 | thorns. Yet you have asked for and received another sight. Those who | accept the Holy Spirit's purpose as their own share also His vision. |
| Tx:20.35 | would have a plan for your salvation that does not work. Once you | accept His plan as the one function that you would fulfill, there |
| Tx:20.47 | Idols | accept, but never make return. They can be loved, but cannot love. |
| Tx:20.56 | to the body or let himself be given freedom from it. Here he can | accept the holy instant, offered him to replace the unholy one he |
| Tx:20.59 | You recognize you want the goal. Are you not also willing to | accept the means? If you are not, let us admit that you are |
| Tx:20.74 | are gone. And all you need to do is recognize you did this. Once you | accept this simple fact and take unto yourself the power you gave |
| Tx:20.77 | in dancing brooks that never waste away, who need persuade you to | accept the gift of vision? And after vision, who is there who could |
| Tx:21.2 | you how much joy you have allowed yourself to see in you and to | accept as yours. And if this is its meaning, then the power to give |
| Tx:21.11 | of it within and joined to all as surely as all is joined in you. | Accept the vision which can show you this and not the body. You know |
| Tx:21.18 | this, the power of your wanting must first be recognized. You must | accept its strength and not its weakness. You must perceive that what |
| Tx:21.18 | that what is strong enough to make a world can let it go and can | accept correction if it is willing to see that it was wrong. |
| Tx:21.30 | If you | accept this change, you have accepted the idea of making room for |
| Tx:21.55 | it. And all of it will come with any part. Here is the part you can | accept. What reason points to you can see because the witnesses on |
| Tx:21.59 | you when you think you sin, you call for help. Yet if you will not | accept the help you call for, you will not believe that it is yours |
| Tx:21.64 | your brother nor yourself can be attacked alone. But neither can | accept a miracle instead without the other being blessed by it and |
| Tx:22.54 | will does healing lie. For here your healing is and here will you | accept Atonement. And in your healing is the Sonship healed because |
| Tx:22.58 | to substitute another goal. [This one was given you and only this.] | Accept this one and serve it willingly, for what the Holy Spirit does |
| Tx:23.10 | over. The journey's end is at the place of peace. Would you not now | accept the peace offered you here? This “enemy” you fought as an |
| Tx:23.24 | to make chaos eternal. For if God cannot be mistaken, then He must | accept his Son's belief in what he is and hate him for it. |
| Tx:23.43 | Salvation is no compromise of any kind. To compromise is to | accept but part of what you want—to take a little and give up the |
| Tx:23.45 | cannot perceive it lies within them. How could they know? Could they | accept forgiveness side by side with the belief that murder takes |
| Tx:23.45 | some forms by which their peace is saved? Would they be willing to | accept the fact their savage purpose is directed against themselves? |
| Tx:24.25 | whose holy hands would offer it to you when you were ready to | accept His plan for your salvation in place of yours. How could this |
| Tx:25.18 | Accept God's frame instead of yours, and you will see the | |
| Tx:25.59 | remember this and so emerge from deepest mourning into perfect joy. | Accept the function that has been assigned to you in God's Own plan |
| Tx:25.72 | He recognize all you deserve but understands as well that you cannot | accept it for yourself. It is His special function to hold out to you |
| Tx:25.72 | out to you the gifts the innocent deserve. And every one that you | accept brings joy to Him as well as you. He knows that Heaven is |
| Tx:25.72 | as well as you. He knows that Heaven is richer made by each one you | accept. And God rejoices as His Son receives what loving justice |
| Tx:25.79 | reluctantly is not to gain the gift because you are reluctant to | accept it. It is saved for you until reluctance to receive it |
| Tx:26.3 | you think is yours. For giving and receiving are the same. And to | accept the limits of a body is to impose these limits on each brother |
| Tx:27.4 | you swear he never will escape. This sick and sorry picture you | accept, if only it can serve to punish him. The sick are merciless to |
| Tx:27.28 | you perceive as separate. And each forgives the other, that he may | accept his other half as part of him. |
| Tx:27.44 | extends without your help, but you are needed that it can begin. | Accept the miracle of healing, and it will go forth because of what |
| Tx:27.47 | What stands apart from you when you | accept the blessing that the holy instant brings? Be not afraid of |
| Tx:27.53 | healing offered. And you will learn that peace is given you when you | accept the healing for yourself. Its total value need not be |
| Tx:27.73 | waken gently and with joy. And gave him means to waken without fear. | Accept the dream He gave instead of yours. It is not difficult to |
| Tx:28.19 | perceive this much at least—that you have caused the dream and can | accept another dream as well. But for this change in content of the |
| Tx:28.25 | is seen as causeless now, because they did not make it. And you can | accept the role of maker of their hate, because you see that it has |
| Tx:28.28 | in the rising up to waking and the ending of the dream. When you | accept a miracle, you do not add your dream of fear to one that is |
| Tx:28.29 | it is their joint decision to be sick. If you withhold agreement and | accept the part you play in making sickness real, the other mind |
| Tx:28.48 | you share becomes the only one you have. You have the one which you | accept, because it is the only one you [want] to have. You share no |
| Tx:28.61 | opposite? There is no middle ground in any aspect of salvation. You | accept it wholly or accept it not. What is unseparated must be |
| Tx:28.61 | no middle ground in any aspect of salvation. You accept it wholly or | accept it not. What is unseparated must be joined. And what is joined |
| Tx:29.13 | believing they are separate and alone. They will be healed when you | accept your gifts, because your Guest will welcome everyone whose |
| Tx:29.32 | for any purpose you may see in him. Nothing is asked of you but to | accept the changeless and eternal that abide in him, for your |
| Tx:30.14 | this decision still can be undone by simple methods which you can | accept. |
| Tx:31.57 | that can stand for what you are. What matters it which concept you | accept while you perceive a self which interacts with evil and reacts |
| Tx:31.95 | me as You are sure of what they are and will forever be. They will | accept the gift I offer them because You gave it me on their behalf. |
| W1:I.5 | true. Remember only this—you need not believe them, you need not | accept them, and you need not welcome them. Some of them you may |
| W1:9.1 | follows from the two preceding ones. But while you may be able to | accept it intellectually, it is unlikely that it will mean anything |
| W1:12.8 | bad. Why, then, should a meaningless world upset you? If you could | accept the world as meaningless and let the truth be written upon it |
| W1:13.3 | therefore, that you learn to recognize the meaningless and | accept it without fear. If you are fearful, it is certain that you |
| W1:58.2 | world come. Having forgiven, I no longer see myself as guilty. I can | accept the innocence that is the truth about me. Seen through |
| W1:61.3 | True humility requires that you | accept today's idea because it is God's Voice Which tells you it is |
| W1:63.2 | for his redemption. It is yours to give him, for it belongs to you. | Accept no trivial purpose or meaningless desire in its place or you |
| W1:63.2 | This is no idle request that is being asked of you. You are asked to | accept salvation that it may be yours to give. |
| W1:65.2 | a more sustained practice period in which you try to understand and | accept what today's idea really means. It offers you escape from all |
| W1:65.14 | you. It is what you see now that will be totally changed when you | accept today's idea completely. |
| W1:66.7 | Try to see the logic in this sequence, even if you do not yet | accept the conclusion. It is only if the first two thoughts are wrong |
| W1:66.8 | it is this definition of Him which you are believing if you do not | accept the first premise. |
| W1:71.1 | believe. Since it is the opposite of God's, you also believe that to | accept God's plan in place of the ego's is to be damned. This sounds |
| W1:72.7 | the ego comes to save you. God made you a body. Very well. Let us | accept this and be glad. As a body, do not let yourself be deprived |
| W1:72.10 | the body is to end the attack on God's plan for salvation and to | accept it instead. And wherever His plan is accepted, it is |
| W1:72.19 | Holding grievances is an attack on God's plan for salvation. Let me | accept it instead. What is salvation, Father? |
| W1:73.8 | if you remember that you will salvation for yourself. You will to | accept God's plan because you share in it. You have no will that can |
| W1:75.3 | our sight and hide the world forgiveness offers us. Today we will | accept the new world as what we want to see. We will be given what we |
| W1:78.5 | to please—demanding, irritating, or untrue to the ideal he should | accept as his according to the role you set for him. |
| W1:79.6 | only problem is separation, no matter what form it takes, you could | accept the answer because you would see its relevance. Perceiving the |
| W1:80.1 | Salvation is accomplished. Freedom from conflict has been given you. | Accept that fact, and you are ready to take your rightful place in |
| W1:80.3 | not deceive you while you remember this. One problem—one solution. | Accept the peace this simple statement brings. |
| W1:86.5 | no longer defeat my own best interests in this insane way. I would | accept God's plan for salvation and be happy. |
| W1:89.2 | me from all grievances and replace them with miracles. And I would | accept the miracles in place of the grievances, which are but |
| W1:89.2 | which are but illusions that hide the miracles beyond. Now I would | accept only what the laws of God entitle me to have that I may use it |
| W1:89.5 | with the Holy Spirit's and perceive them as one. By this idea do I | accept my release from hell. By this idea do I express my willingness |
| W1:90.7 | resolved. The answer to this problem is already given me if I will | accept it. Time cannot separate this problem from its solution. |
| W1:95.1 | Your perfect unity makes change in you impossible. You do not | accept this and you fail to realize it must be so, only because you |
| W1:96.17 | store. And all of it is given everyone who asks for it and will | accept the gift. Think, then, how much is given unto you to give this |
| W1:97.6 | misery appear to rule. He will not overlook one open mind that will | accept the healing gift they bring, and He will lay them everywhere |
| W1:97.10 | Expressed through you, the Holy Spirit will | accept this gift which you received of Him, increase its power, and |
| W1:98.1 | else; we will not seek for it where it is not. In gladness we | accept it as it is and take the part assigned to us by God. |
| W1:98.5 | Is it not worth five minutes of your time each hour to be able to | accept the happiness that God has given you? Is it not worth five |
| W1:98.9 | I will | accept my part in God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:98.10 | In each five minutes that you spend with Him, He will | accept your words and give them back to you all bright with faith and |
| W1:98.13 | and spend a happy time again with Him. Tell Him once more that you | accept the part which He would have you take and help you fill, and |
| W1:100.4 | They are the proof that God wills perfect happiness for all who will | accept their Father's gifts as theirs. |
| W1:101.4 | the Voice Which offers it to him? Why would he try to listen and | accept Its offering? If sin is real, its offering is death and meted |
| W1:101.5 | believe must come from sin will never happen, for it has no cause. | Accept Atonement with an open mind which cherishes no lingering |
| W1:102.5 | I share God's Will for happiness for me, and I | accept it as my function now. |
| W1:105.1 | God's peace and joy are yours. Today we will | accept them, knowing they belong to us. And we will try to understand |
| W1:105.4 | Accept God's peace and joy, and you will learn a different way of | |
| W1:105.4 | but increase thereby. As Heaven's peace and joy intensify when you | accept them as God's gift to you, so does the joy of your Creator |
| W1:105.4 | as God's gift to you, so does the joy of your Creator grow when you | accept His joy and peace as yours. |
| W1:105.6 | Today | accept God's peace and joy as yours. Let Him complete Himself as He |
| W1:105.9 | free of all that would prevent success today. Now are you ready to | accept the gift of peace and joy which God has given you. Now are you |
| W1:106.1 | the ego's voice, however loudly it may seem to call; if you will not | accept its petty gifts which give you nothing that you really want; |
| W1:109.6 | dreams of fever that has passed away. Let it be still and thankfully | accept its healing. No more fearful dreams will come now that you |
| W1:R3.4 | you nothing. But your practicing can offer everything to you. And so | accept its offering and be at peace. |
| W1:114.3 | [98] I will | accept my part in God's plan for salvation. What can my function be |
| W1:114.3 | my part in God's plan for salvation. What can my function be but to | accept the Word of God, Who has created me, for what I am and will |
| W1:114.7 | I will | accept my part in God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:117.3 | and with it joy. These are the gifts my Father gave to me. I would | accept all that is mine in truth. |
| W1:118.2 | [105] God's peace and joy are mine. Today I will | accept God's peace and joy in glad exchange for all the substitutes |
| W1:119.3 | in truth. I will forgive all things today, that I may learn how to | accept the truth in me and come to recognize my sinlessness. |
| W1:122.7 | Here is the answer! Do not turn away in aimless wandering again. | Accept salvation now. It is the gift of God and not the world. The |
| W1:124.9 | be less if you believe that nothing happens. You may not be ready to | accept the gain today. Yet sometime, somewhere, it will come to you, |
| W1:128.1 | and from hopes that turn to bitter ashes of despair. No one but must | accept this thought as true, if he would leave this world behind and |
| W1:130.9 | It is impossible to see two worlds. Let me | accept the strength God offers me and see no value in this world that |
| W1:130.12 | Accept a little part of hell as real, and you have damned your eyes | |
| W1:132.7 | thought the course attempts to teach. Not everyone is ready to | accept it, and each one must go as far as he can let himself be led |
| W1:132.8 | gift of those who are prepared to learn there is no world and can | accept the lesson now. Their readiness will bring the lesson to them |
| W1:132.14 | from this idea be real? Can it be anywhere? Deny illusions, but | accept the truth. Deny you are a shadow briefly laid upon a dying |
| W1:134.2 | view of what forgiveness means is easily corrected when you can | accept the fact that pardon is not asked for what is true. It must be |
| W1:135.19 | What could you not | accept if you but knew that everything that happens, all events, |
| W1:136.17 | Sickness is a defense against the truth. I will | accept the truth of what I am and let my mind be wholly healed today. |
| W1:137.3 | and separate. But healing is his own decision to be one again and to | accept his Self with all its parts intact and unassailed. In sickness |
| W1:137.4 | would impose has never really happened. To be healed is merely to | accept what always was the simple truth and always will remain |
| W1:139.1 | Here is the end of choice. For here we come to a decision to | accept ourselves as God created us. And what is choice except |
| W1:139.2 | except one who has refused to recognize himself? Only refusal to | accept yourself could make the question seem to be sincere. The only |
| W1:139.8 | It is more than just our happiness alone we came to gain. What we | accept as what we are proclaims what everyone must be along with us. |
| W1:139.9 | God's Son is unassailed by his belief he knows not what he is. Today | accept Atonement, not to change reality, but merely to accept the |
| W1:139.9 | he is. Today accept Atonement, not to change reality, but merely to | accept the truth about yourself and go your way rejoicing in the |
| W1:139.11 | I will | accept Atonement for myself, for I remain as God created me. |
| W1:139.14 | I will | accept Atonement for myself, for I remain as God created me. |
| W1:150.1 | [139] I will | accept Atonement for myself. |
| W1:151.9 | And thus He judges you. | Accept His word of what you are, for He bears witness to your |
| W1:152.2 | abide? Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the truth at all. | Accept no opposite and no exceptions, for to do so is to contradict |
| W1:152.3 | nothing else is true. This you have heard before, but may not yet | accept both parts of it. Without the first, the second has no |
| W1:152.8 | Let us today be truly humble and | accept what we have made as what it is. The power of decision is our |
| W1:152.8 | made as what it is. The power of decision is our own. Decide but to | accept your rightful place as co-creator of the universe, and all you |
| W1:152.10 | in power and in love. The power of decision is our own. And we | accept of Him that which we are and humbly recognize the Son of God. |
| W1:152.13 | The power of decision is my own. This day I will | accept myself as what my Father's Will created me to be. |
| W1:154.5 | who will receive the message that he brings. It is enough that he | accept it, give it to the ones for whom it is appointed, and fulfill |
| W1:154.6 | they deliver are intended first for them. And it is only as they can | accept them for themselves that they become able to bring them |
| W1:154.15 | about ourselves and what our function is. For as we prove that we | accept no will we do not share, our many gifts from our Creator will |
| W1:155.8 | Such is salvation's call, and nothing more. It asks that you | accept the truth, and let it go before you, lighting up the path of |
| W1:156.5 | they see in you their holiness, saluting you as savior and as God. | Accept their reverence, for it is due to Holiness itself Which walks |
| W1:159.2 | You understand that you are healed when you give healing. You | accept forgiveness as accomplished in yourself when you forgive. You |
| W1:160.10 | He does. Who denies his brother is denying Him and thus refusing to | accept the gift of sight by which his Self is clearly recognized, his |
| W1:161.11 | today. And once you have succeeded, you will not be willing to | accept the witnesses your body's eyes call forth. What you will see |
| W1:162.5 | We honor you today. Yours is the right to perfect holiness you now | accept. With this acceptance is salvation brought to everyone, for |
| W1:163.6 | is possible. For here again we see an obvious position which we must | accept if we be sane; what contradicts one thought entirely cannot be |
| W1:163.9 | with all living things, to be like You and part of You forever. We | accept Your thoughts as ours, and our will is one with Yours |
| W1:164.3 | come from nearer than the world are clear to you who will today | accept the gifts He gives. |
| W1:165.5 | seeing eyes of Christ; your mind has come to lay aside denial and | accept the Thought of God as its inheritance. |
| W1:166.3 | to anyone who holds such strange beliefs. He must believe that, to | accept God's gifts, however evident they may become, however urgently |
| W1:166.12 | has given you. He speaks as well of what becomes your will when you | accept these gifts and recognize they are your own. |
| W1:166.15 | your happiness to how transformed the mind becomes which chooses to | accept His gifts and feel the touch of Christ. Such is your mission |
| W1:169.3 | aware that there are things it does not know and thus is ready to | accept a state completely different from experience with which it is |
| W1:169.13 | Be grateful to return, as you were glad to go an instant and | accept the gifts that grace provided you. You carry them back to |
| W1:R5.3 | now, that we may walk more certainly and quickly unto You. And we | accept the Word You offer us to unify our practicing, as we review |
| W1:I2.3 | achievement while it is denied. It may be there, but you cannot | accept its presence. So we now attempt to go past all defenses for a |
| W1:182.12 | His home is yours. Today He gives you His defenselessness, and you | accept it in exchange for all the toys of battle you have made. And |
| W1:183.10 | what the world forgot and offer it your own remembering. You can | accept today the part you play in its salvation and your own as well, |
| W1:184.6 | for it is the ultimate reality. To question it is madness; to | accept its presence is the proof of sanity. |
| W1:184.11 | little names and symbols which delineate the world of darkness. Yet | accept them not as your reality. The Holy Spirit uses all of them, |
| W1:184.12 | place of Heaven. In our practicing, our purpose is to let our minds | accept what He has given as the answer to the pitiful inheritance you |
| W1:184.13 | God. Experience must come to supplement the word. But first you must | accept One Name for all reality, and realize the many names you gave |
| W1:184.15 | we may be absolved of all effects our errors seemed to have. And we | accept the truth You give in place of every one of them. Your Name is |
| W1:186.2 | it will be perfectly accomplished. All that we are asked to do is to | accept our part in genuine humility and not deny with self-deceiving |
| W1:186.5 | your plan to prove the false is true has brought to you. | Accept the plan you did not make instead. Judge not your value to it. |
| W1:186.8 | And so we find our peace. We will | accept the function God has given us, for all illusions rest upon the |
| W1:186.10 | images will go and leave your mind unclouded and serene when you | accept the function given you. The images you make give rise to but |
| W1:187.3 | to you before you give them. If you are to save the world, you first | accept salvation for yourself. But you will not believe that this is |
| W1:187.7 | Illusions recognized must disappear. | Accept not suffering, and you remove the thought of suffering. Your |
| W1:188.7 | Voice when you refuse to listen. And they urge you gently to | accept His Word for what you are instead of fantasies and shadows. |
| W1:190.5 | what you are. As you perceive the harmlessness in them, they will | accept your holy will as theirs. And what was seen as fearful now |
| W1:191.5 | safety and escape, you will return and set it free. For he who can | accept his true Identity is truly saved. And his salvation is the |
| W1:191.13 | suffer pain until you have denied its hold on you. They die till you | accept your own eternal life. You are the holy Son of God Himself. |
| W1:192.10 | The Son of God deserves your mercy. It is he who asks that you | accept the way to freedom now. Deny him not. His Father's Love for |
| W1:192.10 | Your function here on earth is only to forgive him, that you may | accept him back as your Identity. He is as God created him. And you |
| W1:194.2 | Accept today's idea, and you have passed all anxiety, all pits of | |
| W1:194.2 | depression, thoughts of sin, and devastation brought about by guilt. | Accept today's idea, and you have released the world from all |
| W1:194.9 | can come to us. If we forget, we will be gently reassured. If we | accept an unforgiving thought, it will be soon replaced by love's |
| W1:196.6 | Such is the form of madness you believe if you | accept the fearful thought you can attack another and be free |
| W1:198.5 | Is it not more intelligent to thank the One Who gives salvation, and | accept His gift with gratitude? And is it not a kindness to yourself |
| W1:198.12 | Accept the one illusion which proclaims there is no condemnation in | |
| W1:199.3 | It is essential for your progress in this course that you | accept today's idea and hold it very dear. Be not concerned that to |
| W1:199.7 | and helpless and afraid. Let love replace their fears through you. | Accept salvation now, and give your mind to Him Who calls to you to |
| W1:200.1 | Seek you no further. You will not find peace except the peace of God. | Accept this fact, and save yourself the agony of yet more bitter |
| W1:200.11 | be found in them. The peace of God is ours, and only this will we | accept and want. Peace be to us today. For we have found a simple, |
| W1:207.1 | He abides. I need but turn to Him, and every sorrow melts away as I | accept His boundless Love for me. I am not a body. I am free. For I |
| W1:212.1 | given me can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this will I | accept as mine. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W1:214.1 | am I freed from both. For what God gives can only be for good. And I | accept but what He gives as what belongs to me. I am not a body. I am |
| W2:I.6 | backward now. We look ahead and fix our eyes upon the journey's end. | Accept these little gifts of thanks from us, as through Christ's |
| W2:I.10 | judging, we need but be still and let all things be healed. We will | accept the way God's plan will end, as we received the way it |
| W2:221.2 | together. I am sure that He will speak to you, and you will hear. | Accept my confidence, for it is yours. Our minds are joined. We wait |
| W2:228.1 | and believe in what His knowledge makes impossible? Shall I | accept as true what He proclaims as false? Or shall I take His Word |
| W2:234.1 | happened to disturb the peace of God the Father and the Son. This we | accept as wholly true today. |
| W2:236.2 | to every thought but Yours. I rule my mind and offer it to You. | Accept my gift, for it is Yours to me. |
| W2:237.1 | Today I will | accept the truth about myself. I will arise in glory and allow the |
| W2:246.2 | I will | accept the way You choose for me to come to You, my Father. For in |
| W2:247.1 | is the only means whereby Christ's vision comes to me. Let me | accept what His sight shows me as the simple truth and I am healed |
| W2:248.1 | and deceits and lies about the holy Son of God. Now am I ready to | accept him back as God created him, and as he is. |
| W2:253.1 | What does not occur is what I do not want to happen. This must I | accept. For thus am I led past this world to my creations, children |
| W2:272.1 | me happiness? What but Your memory can satisfy Your Son? I will | accept no less than You have given me. I am surrounded by Your Love, |
| W2:276.1 | Son did not create with Him because in this His Son was born. Let us | accept His Fatherhood, and all is given us. Deny we were created in |
| W2:278.1 | If I | accept that I am prisoner within a body in a world in which all |
| W2:279.2 | I will | accept Your promises today and give my faith to them. My Father loves |
| W2:WIHS.5 | Accept your Father's gift. It is a call from Love to Love that it be | |
| W2:282.1 | reached for all the world. This the decision not to be insane and to | accept myself as God Himself, my Father and my Source, created me. |
| W2:285.1 | been sent by me. And I will ask for only joyous things the instant I | accept my holiness. For what would be the use of pain to me, what |
| W2:285.1 | grief and loss avail me, if insanity departs from me today and I | accept my holiness instead? |
| W2:291.1 | and at peace and offers this same vision to the world. And I | accept this vision in its name, both for myself and for the world as |
| W2:291.2 | This day my mind is quiet to receive the thoughts You offer me. And I | accept what comes from You instead of from myself. I do not know the |
| W2:297.1 | live within a world that needs salvation and that will be saved as I | accept Atonement for myself. |
| W2:298.1 | the end of senseless journeys, mad careers, and artificial values. I | accept instead what God establishes as mine, sure that in that alone |
| W2:305.2 | us because it is Your will that we be saved. Help us today but to | accept Your gift and judge it not. For it has come to us to save us |
| W2:307.1 | only Yours exists. If I would have what only You can give, I must | accept Your will for me and enter into peace where conflict is |
| W2:WILJ.3 | God's Last Judgment would condemn the world to hell along with you, | accept this holy truth: God's Judgment is the gift of the correction |
| W2:316.2 | Father, I would | accept Your gifts today. I do not recognize them. Yet I trust that |
| W2:318.2 | today, my Father, take the role You offer me in Your request that I | accept Atonement for myself. For thus does what is thereby reconciled |
| W2:329.2 | Today we will | accept our union with each other and our Source. We have no will |
| W2:330.1 | Let us this day | accept forgiveness as our only function. Why should we attack our |
| W2:330.1 | them take what is already theirs? The mind that is made willing to | accept God's gifts has been restored to Spirit and extends its |
| W2:334.1 | are woven out of thoughts that rest on false perception. Let me not | accept such meager gifts again today. God's Voice is offering the |
| W2:337.1 | is given me. What must I do to know all this is mine? I must | accept Atonement for myself and nothing more. God has already done |
| W2:337.1 | done. And I must learn I need do nothing of myself, for I need but | accept my Self, my sinlessness, created for me, now already mine, to |
| W2:337.2 | about what I am. I was mistaken when I thought I sinned, but I | accept Atonement for myself. Father, my dream is ended now. Amen. |

| M:27.7 | Teacher of God, your one assignment could be stated thus: | accept no compromise in which death plays a part. Do not believe in |

| Tx:21.37 | to what has been already joined. The faith you give each other can | accomplish this. For He Who loves the world is seeing it for you |
| Tx:25.87 | Each miracle is an example of what justice can | accomplish when it is offered to everyone alike. It is received and |

| Tx:16.17 | of attack have both been brought into awareness. And this has been | accomplished in minds firmly convinced that holiness is weakness and |
| Tx:16.47 | in complete disagreement on what completion is and how it is | accomplished. The Holy Spirit knows that completion lies first in |
| Tx:17.2 | reality that is fearful, because by your wish you think you have | accomplished what you wish. This strange position in a sense |
| Tx:17.6 | not concerned with anything except your willingness to have this be | accomplished. He will accomplish it; not you. But forget not this: |
| Tx:17.44 | In all its aspects, as it begins, develops, and becomes | accomplished, it represents the reversal of the unholy relationship. |
| Tx:17.45 | of asking Him to enter. At once His goal replaces yours. This is | accomplished very rapidly, but it makes the relationship seem |
| Tx:17.47 | whole relationship is for. As this change develops and is finally | accomplished, it grows increasingly beneficent and joyous. But at the |
| Tx:18.6 | it still remains. Invest it not with guilt, for guilt implies it was | accomplished in reality. And above all, be not afraid of it. When you |

| Tx:18.41 | the Holy Spirit's teaching, and all the means by which salvation is | accomplished would have no purpose. For they are all but aspects of |

| Tx:19.39 | to encompass everyone, the Holy Spirit's function here will be | accomplished. What need is there for seeing then? When God has taken |
| Tx:19.44 | the appeal of guilt to the appeal of love. How can this fail to be | accomplished, wherever it is undertaken? Guilt can raise no real |
| Tx:19.75 | to the goal of sin and places in it all its faith that this can be | accomplished. Its sad disciples chant the body's praise continually, |
| Tx:19.83 | than by showing you the one which seems to be the hardest can be | accomplished first? The body can but serve your purpose. As you look |
| Tx:19.99 | How can you know that it is over unless you realize its purpose is | accomplished? Here, with the journey's end before you, you see its |
| Tx:19.105 | to which we come again; to which we will return until redemption is | accomplished and received. Think who your brother is before you would |

| Tx:21.37 | asks for sacrifice, for this is how they think their purpose is | accomplished. Brothers, the Holy Spirit knows that sacrifice brings |
| Tx:21.53 | not apart from him, nor does the Will of God wait upon time to be | accomplished. Therefore, what joined the Will of God must be in you |
| Tx:21.57 | undoing of insanity. Here was the Holy Spirit's purpose accepted and | accomplished both at once. Reason is alien to insanity, and those who |

| W1:159.2 | that you are healed when you give healing. You accept forgiveness as | accomplished in yourself when you forgive. You recognize your brother |
| W1:169.7 | what forgiveness means. All learning was already in His Mind, | accomplished and complete. He recognized all that time holds and gave |

| W1:186.2 | not our idea. The means are given us by which it will be perfectly | accomplished. All that we are asked to do is to accept our part in |

| W2:297.2 | and how truly faithful is every step in my salvation set already and | accomplished by Your grace. Thanks be to You for Your eternal gifts, |

| Tx:2.111 | but dictate. The purpose of time is solely to “give him time” to | achieve this judgment. It is his own perfect judgment of his own |
| Tx:8.22 | To | achieve the goal of the curriculum, then, you cannot listen to the |
| Tx:8.101 | who persisted in attempting the impossible, believing that to | achieve it is success? The belief that you must have the impossible |
| Tx:10.86 | is to heal yourself, and you cannot perceive part of you as sick and | achieve your own goal. Brother, we heal together as we live together |
| Tx:11.51 | merely ridiculous if you look at it. Is it possible that the way to | achieve a goal is not to attain it? Resign now as your own teachers. |
| Tx:18.33 | holy instant. Come to it not in arrogance, assuming that you must | achieve the state its coming brings with it. The miracle of the holy |
| Tx:20.65 | Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How can a holy relationship | achieve its purpose through the means of sin? Judgment you taught |
| Tx:21.15 | I chose the feelings I experience, and I decided on the goal I would | achieve. And everything that seems to happen to me, I asked for and |
| Tx:22.52 | is used as means whose value lies in its ability to contrive ways to | achieve the body's freedom. Yet freedom of the body has no meaning, |
| Tx:26.1 | all desperate attempts to strike a bargain, and all conflicts | achieve a seeming balance. It is the symbol of the central theme that |
| Tx:26.31 | nowhere when it can be used to reach a goal as high as learning can | achieve? Think not the way to Heaven's gate is difficult at all. |
| Tx:29.28 | goal which an event, or body, or a thing should represent and should | achieve for you. If it succeeds, you think you like the dream. If it |

| W1:11.3 | the peace, relaxation, and freedom from worry that we are trying to | achieve. On concluding the exercises, close your eyes and repeat the |
| W1:42.1 | relationship which explains why you cannot fail in your efforts to | achieve the goal of the course. You will see because it is the Will |
| W1:72.11 | God's plan for salvation has already been accomplished in us. To | achieve this goal, we must replace attack with acceptance. As long as |
| W1:127.6 | course requests in your advance toward its established goal. If you | achieve the faintest glimmering of what love means today, you have |
| W1:131.2 | them to gain in anything? Where can they lead? And what could they | achieve that offers any hope of being real? |

| Tx:6.52 | and also of yours. Accomplishments are results which have been | achieved. When they are perfect, abilities are meaningless. It is |
| Tx:8.71 | of every end that the ego has accepted as its own. When you have | achieved it, it has not satisfied you. This is why the ego is forced |
| Tx:8.108 | is. This accounts for why certain specific forms of healing are not | achieved, even though the state of healing is. It frequently happens |

| Tx:18.67 | into the mind given to contemplation; or when the goal is finally | achieved by anyone, it always comes with just one happy realization: |
| Tx:19.56 | die instead of you. To the ego sin means death, and so Atonement is | achieved through murder. Salvation is looked upon as a way by which |

| Tx:30.72 | it had a real foundation, pardon would have none. The real world is | achieved when you perceive the basis of forgiveness is quite real and |
| W1:131.1 | Failure is all about you while you seek for goals that cannot be | achieved. You look for permanence in the impermanent, for love where |
| W1:132.2 | Yet is salvation easily | achieved, for anyone is free to change his mind, and all his thoughts |

| M:4.11 | All other traits of God's teachers rest on trust. Once that has been | achieved, the others cannot fail to follow. Only the trusting can |
| M:4.24 | gone. No clouds remain to hide the face of Christ. Now is the goal | achieved. Forgiveness is the final goal of the curriculum. It paves |

achieving (5) | ||
| Tx:1.102 | limited or defined by what you want it to do. Relating is a way of | achieving an outcome. The danger of defenses lies in their propensity |
| W1:66.1 | lessons on the connection between fulfilling your function and | achieving happiness. This is because you do not really see the |
| W1:66.3 | involved in defining happiness and determining the means for | achieving it. We will not indulge the ego by listening to its attacks |
| M:4.21 | really deserves the name. Yet each degree, however small, is worth | achieving. Readiness, as the text notes, is not mastery. |

| Tx:5.34 | both of you as you become aware of the Call for God in him and thus | acknowledge its being. There are two ways of seeing your brother |
| Tx:5.34 | Spirit in his mind, and you will recognize Him in yours. What you | acknowledge in your brother you are acknowledging in yourself, and |
| Tx:5.46 | a way out of fear. This does not mean that you can safely fail to | acknowledge anything that is true. However, the Holy Spirit will not |
| Tx:7.38 | the Holy Spirit in both of you, because it is a refusal to | acknowledge fear. Love needs only this invitation. It comes freely to |
| Tx:7.97 | know. That is true in a sense, but no more true than your failure to | acknowledge the whole result of the ego's premises. The Kingdom is |
| Tx:8.15 | Kingdom is and for its own acknowledgment of what it is. When you | acknowledge this, you bring the acknowledgment automatically to |
| Tx:8.25 | and joy, unless you experience only this you must be refusing to | acknowledge His Will. His Will does not vacillate, being changeless |
| Tx:8.32 | can oppose His. God gave your will its power, which I can only | acknowledge in honor of His. If you want to be like me, I will help |

| Tx:9.100 | When you acknowledge Him, you will know that He has never ceased to | acknowledge you and that in His acknowledgment of you lies your |
| Tx:9.101 | you, you will be incapable of suffering. Yet to do this, you must | acknowledge Him as your Creator. This is not because you will be |
| Tx:14.68 | That is impossible. But be sure that you are willing to | acknowledge that it is impossible. It is only because you think that |
| Tx:15.44 | readiness for purity He offers you. Thus will He make you ready to | acknowledge that you are host to God and hostage to no one and |
| Tx:16.14 | Spirit and in the effects of His teaching if you were not afraid to | acknowledge what He taught you. For this acknowledgment means that |
| Tx:16.16 | the glad tidings He has come. It is true, just as you fear, that to | acknowledge Him is to deny all that you think you know. But it was |
| Tx:21.16 | no longer that you are helpless in the face of what is done to you. | Acknowledge but that you have been mistaken, and all effects of your |
| Tx:22.39 | way is decided. There will be nothing you will not be told if you | acknowledge this. |
| Tx:28.40 | by your claim on brotherhood and not on dreams of fear. Let him | acknowledge who he is by not supporting his illusions by your faith, |
| W1:7.10 | Look about you. This is equally true of whatever you look at. | Acknowledge this by applying the idea for today indiscriminately to |
| W1:28.7 | equal sincerity as today's idea is applied to it in an attempt to | acknowledge the equal value of them all in their contribution to your |
| W1:83.2 | to do, what to say, and what to think. All doubt must disappear as I | acknowledge that my only function is the one God gave me. |
| W1:131.12 | This we | acknowledge as we start upon our practice periods. Begin with this: |
| W1:135.28 | plans, remind yourself this is a special day for learning, and | acknowledge it with this: |
| W1:164.9 | your consent and your acceptance. We can change the world if you | acknowledge them. You may not see the value your acceptance gives the |
| W1:167.2 | a little sigh of weariness, a slight discomfort or the merest frown, | acknowledge death. And thus deny you live. |
| W1:168.5 | given us. Our faith lies in the Giver, not our own acceptance. We | acknowledge our mistakes, but He to Whom all error is unknown is yet |
| W1:170.11 | above all else, cruel beyond conception, striking down all who | acknowledge Him to be their God. |
| W1:183.9 | Repeat His Name, and you | acknowledge Him as sole Creator of reality. And you acknowledge also |
| W1:183.9 | Name, and you acknowledge Him as sole Creator of reality. And you | acknowledge also that His Son is part of Him, creating in His Name. |
| W1:188.9 | Thus are our minds restored with them, and we | acknowledge that the peace of God still shines in us and from us to |
| W2:223.2 | we are at home. Today we would return. Our Name is Yours, and we | acknowledge that we are Your Son. |
| W2:276.1 | Father is, and for what purpose we have come. And yet we need but to | acknowledge Him Who gave His Word to us in our creation, to remember |
| W2:WISC.4 | is Christ restored as one Identity, in which all Sons of God | acknowledge that they all are one. And God the Father smiles upon His |
| M:8.6 | but the mind which has let itself be healed will no longer | acknowledge them. There will be those who seem to be “sicker” than |
| M:12.6 | Unity alone is not a thing of dreams. And it is this God's teachers | acknowledge as behind the dream, beyond all seeing and yet surely |
| M:29.5 | himself. Yet to accept the power given him by God is but to | acknowledge his Creator and accept His gifts. And His gifts have no |
acknowledged (11) | ||
| Tx:7.111 | only equally. If you recognize His gift in anyone else, you have | acknowledged what He has given you. Nothing is as easy to perceive as |
| Tx:8.15 | bring the acknowledgment automatically to everyone, because you have | acknowledged everyone. By your recognition you awaken theirs, and |
| Tx:9.92 | light will create. Yet in the returning, the little light must be | acknowledged first, for the separation was a descent from magnitude |
| Tx:9.105 | your creations are as real as His. Yet the real Fatherhood must be | acknowledged if the real Son is to be known. You believe that the |
| Tx:13.86 | Grant it to him, and you will see the truth of what you have | acknowledged. Yet truth is offered first to be received, even as God |
| Tx:17.77 | To you who have | acknowledged the call of your Redeemer, the strain of not responding |
| Tx:19.63 | with Him nor with himself. When you agreed to join each other, you | acknowledged this is so. This has no cost, but it has release from |
| W1:168.3 | He has most carefully preserved within our hearts, waiting to be | acknowledged. This the gift by which God leans to us and lifts us up, |
| W1:188.5 | is shining in you now and in all living things. In quietness is it | acknowledged universally. For what your inward vision looks upon is |
| W1:192.2 | to let illusion go. Creation merely waits for your return to be | acknowledged, not to be complete. |

| M:16.9 | as merely nothing, the teacher of God has reached the most | advanced state. All intermediate lessons will but lead to this and |

advancement (2) | ||
| M:4.21 | The extent of the teacher of God's faithfulness is the measure of his | advancement in the curriculum. Does he still select some aspects of |
| M:4.21 | life to bring to his learning while keeping others apart? If so, his | advancement is limited and his trust not yet firmly established. |

| Tx:31.55 | rise to them. Nor can this be explained by either view. The main | advantage of the shifting to the second from the first is that you |

| Tx:5.86 | The concept of fixation as Freud saw it has a number of learning | advantages. First, it recognizes that man can be fixated at a point |

advocating (2) | ||
| Tx:5.49 | Your concept lacked the idea of undoing it. What you were really | advocating, then, was adopting a policy of sharing without a real |

| Tx:5.1 | with sorrow. Depression is often contagious but, although it may | affect those who come in contact with it, they do not yield to the |
| Tx:5.70 | results of this decision at that time. Any decision of the mind will | affect both behavior and experience. What you will, you expect. This |

| Tx:21.51 | perfectly aware of this. And thus It recognizes that miracles do not | affect another's mind, only Its own. [They always change your mind.] |
| Tx:26.34 | for anything to notice it had come. What disappeared too quickly to | affect the simple knowledge of the Son of God can hardly still be |
| Tx:26.37 | he is now? And how much can his own delusions about time and place | affect a change in where he really is? The unforgiven is a voice that |
| Tx:26.49 | it is needed. Yet because it is of God, the laws of time do not | affect its workings. It is in this world, but not a part of it. For |
| Tx:30.82 | as with one purpose, changelessly established. And no situation can | affect its aim but must be in accord with it. For only if its aim |
| Tx:31.69 | thoughts have been forgiven with his, because you let them all | affect you not. No longer did you choose that you should be the sign |
| W1:19.1 | The idea for today is obviously the reason why your seeing does not | affect you alone. You will notice that at times the ideas related to |

| W2:WISC.4 | The Second Coming is the one event in time which time itself cannot | affect. For everyone who ever came to die or yet will come or who is |
| M:8.5 | a shout? And do the number of pitchforks the devils he sees carrying | affect their credibility in his perception? His Mind has categorized |
affected (3) | ||
| Tx:19.29 | but as you approach the line, you realize that it was not | affected by the drop into another plane at all. Yet from the plane, |
| W1:52.2 | and thus regard reality as an illusion. Nothing in God's creation is | affected in any way by this confusion of mine. I am always upset by |
| W1:91.1 | your failure to see. It is only your awareness of miracles that is | affected. You will see them in the light; you will not see them in |

| Tx:28.64 | This world is but the dream that you can be alone and think without | affecting those apart from you. To be alone must mean you are apart, |

affirmation (6) | ||
| Tx:1.65 | Otherwise, there has been a confusion of levels. Death is a human | affirmation of a belief in “[hate],” or level confusion. That is why |
| Tx:2.23 | in the Atonement is one of true projection; I can project to you the | affirmation of truth. If you project error to me or to yourself, you |
| Tx:3.7 | 4. The miracle is always a denial of this error and an | affirmation of the truth. Only right-mindedness can create in a way |
| Tx:3.31 | True perception is the basis for knowledge, but knowing is the | affirmation of truth. All your difficulties ultimately stem from the |
| Tx:6.79 | is really only a thought reversal. The second step is a positive | affirmation of what you want. This, then, is a step in the direction |
| Tx:11.12 | By interpreting fear correctly as a positive | affirmation of the underlying belief it masks, you are undermining |
affirmations (2) | ||
| Tx:1.13 | and endings. They thus alter the temporal order. They are always | affirmations of rebirth which seem to go back but really go forward. |
| Tx:1.68 | Miracles are | affirmations of Sonship, which is a state of completion and |
affirming (5) | ||
| Tx:1.41 | praise God through men. They praise God by honoring His creations, | affirming their perfection. They heal because they deny |
| Tx:2.65 | constructive and that their miscreations cannot hurt them. By | affirming this, the miracle worker releases the mind from |
| Tx:3.45 | it derives its whole power to create. Even in miscreation will is | affirming its Source or it would merely cease to be. This is |
| Tx:4.2 | If you speak from the ego, you are disclaiming knowledge instead of | affirming it and are thus dispiriting yourself. Do not embark on |
| Tx:7.90 | that you can be alone, thus dispelling the idea of separation and | affirming your true identification with the whole Kingdom as |
affliction (2) | ||

| Tx:2.18 | When you are | afraid of anything, you are acknowledging its power to hurt you. |
| Tx:2.18 | also. This means that you believe in what you value. If you are | afraid, you are valuing wrongly. Human understanding will inevitably |
| Tx:2.20 | not be shaken and would be unable to be deceived. Whenever you are | afraid, you are deceived. Your mind is not serving the Soul. This |
| Tx:2.21 | is capable of injustice if that is what his mind creates. You are | afraid of God's Will because you have used your own will, which He |
| Tx:2.62 | the mind. Physical medications are forms of “spells.” Those who are | afraid to use the mind to heal should not attempt to do so. The very |
| Tx:2.62 | to heal should not attempt to do so. The very fact that they are | afraid has made them vulnerable to miscreation. They are therefore |
| Tx:2.67 | sight. The reason this so often entails fear is because man is | afraid of what his Spiritual eye will see. We said before that the |
| Tx:2.74 | soon as you place what you think under my guidance. Whenever you are | afraid, it is a sure sign that you have allowed your mind to |
| Tx:2.87 | by the Atonement. It is obvious, then, that when you are | afraid you have placed yourself in a position where you need |
| Tx:2.90 | their thoughts cannot exert real control, because they are literally | afraid of them. Many psychotherapists attempt to help people who are |
| Tx:2.90 | afraid of them. Many psychotherapists attempt to help people who are | afraid, say, of their death wishes by depreciating the power of the |
| Tx:2.91 | that what you think is ineffectual you may cease to be overly | afraid of it, but you are hardly likely to respect it. |
| Tx:2.92 | is full of examples of how man has depreciated himself because he is | afraid of his own thoughts. In some forms of insanity, thoughts are |
| Tx:2.92 | All thinking produces form at some level. The reason people are | afraid of ESP and so often react against it is because they know that |
| Tx:2.95 | By choosing the miracle, you have rejected fear. You have been | afraid of God, of me, of yourselves, and of practically everyone you |
| Tx:2.95 | what you have made. You would never have done this if you were not | afraid of your own thoughts. The vulnerable are essentially |
| Tx:3.12 | number of my would-be followers, has led many people to be bitterly | afraid of God. This particularly anti-religious concept enters into |

| Tx:3.42 | in which attack is always possible. Man has every reason to feel | afraid as he perceives himself. This is why he cannot escape from |
| Tx:4.12 | all. If you perceive a teacher as merely a “larger ego,” you will be | afraid because to enlarge an ego is to increase separation anxiety. I |
| Tx:4.15 | reach of your ego but within easy reach of your Soul. When you are | afraid, be still and know that God is real and you are His beloved |
| Tx:4.16 | responsibility which you are not meeting. You know this, and you are | afraid. In fact, your egos have chosen to be afraid instead of |
| Tx:4.16 | know this, and you are afraid. In fact, your egos have chosen to be | afraid instead of meeting it. When you awaken you will not be able to |
| Tx:4.17 | and you cannot avoid Him any more than He can avoid you. The ego is | afraid of the Soul's joy because, once you have experienced it, you |
| Tx:4.54 | means the ego does not exist and which therefore makes it profoundly | afraid. In the ego's language, remember, “to have” and “to be” are |
| Tx:4.104 | tolerate ego weakness either without ambivalence because it is | afraid of its own weakness as well as the weakness of its chosen |
| Tx:5.74 | it as fearful, it interprets it fearfully. Having made you | afraid, you do not appeal to the Higher Court, because you believe |
| Tx:5.83 | perfectly. Unfortunately, he lost his understanding because he was | afraid and, as you know all too well, fear is incompatible with good |
| Tx:5.84 | what fixation really means and yet does not yield to it is terribly | afraid. |

| Tx:6.47 | obscure the question, because you have the answer and the ego is | afraid of you. You cannot understand the conflict until you fully |
| Tx:6.48 | based on separation. If you side with this alliance, you will be | afraid, because you are siding with an alliance of fear. |

| Tx:7.86 | who project from the ego are vigilant for their own safety. They are | afraid that their projections will return and hurt them. They do |
| Tx:7.88 | Do not be | afraid of the ego. It does depend on your mind and, as you made it by |
| Tx:8.11 | attempt to learn it is a violation of your own freedom and makes you | afraid of your will because it is free. The Holy Spirit opposes any |

| Tx:8.95 | be when you ask for what you do not want? Yet as long as you are | afraid of your will, this is precisely what you will ask for. You may |
| Tx:8.96 | You do not ask only for what you want. This is solely because you are | afraid you might receive it, and you would. That is really why you |
| Tx:8.108 | of the Holy Spirit is what you really want, but you are still | afraid of it. Should this be the case, your attainment of it would no |
| Tx:9.39 | so obvious that it is often overlooked. That is because the ego is | afraid of the obvious since obviousness is the essential |
| Tx:9.52 | because you did not make it. You have made grandiosity and are | afraid of it because it is a form of attack, but your grandeur is of |
| Tx:9.58 | Ask the Holy Spirit what it is and He will tell you, but do not be | afraid of His answer, for it comes from God. It is an exalted answer |
| Tx:9.68 | replaced your knowledge by an awareness of dreams because you are | afraid of your dissociation, not of what you have dissociated. Even |
| Tx:9.73 | against God and His Kingdom. And it is this vigilance that makes you | afraid to remember Him. |
| Tx:9.75 | your power to help them, because He has given it to you. Do not be | afraid of it, because it is your salvation. What Comforter can there |
| Tx:9.78 | Is this the image you would be vigilant to save? [Are you really | afraid of losing this?] Look calmly at the logical conclusion of the |

| Tx:9.82 | you may believe you are afraid of nothingness, but you are really | afraid of nothing. And in that awareness you are healed. You will |

| Tx:10.40 | except by looking at them directly without protecting them? Be not | afraid, therefore, for what you will be looking at is the source of |
| Tx:10.41 | Do not be | afraid, then, to look upon fear, for it cannot be seen. Clarity |
| Tx:10.47 | is that the last thing the ego wishes you to realize is that you are | afraid of it. For if the ego gives rise to fear, it is diminishing |
| Tx:10.48 | shallow, callous, uninvolved, and even desperate, but not really | afraid. Minimizing fear but not its undoing is the ego's constant |
| Tx:10.49 | believing that attack has power. Very simply, then, you have become | afraid of yourself. And no one wills to learn what he believes would |
| Tx:10.80 | as long as you believe that the one is many. Realize that you are | afraid of His specificity for fear of what you think it will demand |
| Tx:10.82 | by that perception, you have lost sight of the real world. You are | afraid of the world as you see it, but the real world is still yours |
| Tx:10.88 | into a shadow, and his “dragon” into a dream, he is no longer | afraid and laughs happily at his own fear. You, my children, are |
| Tx:10.88 | afraid and laughs happily at his own fear. You, my children, are | afraid of your brothers and of your Father and of yourselves. But you |
| Tx:10.89 | frightens them, and when they learn to perceive truly, they are not | afraid. And because of this, they will ask for truth again when they |
| Tx:11.18 | not fit gifts for you. Take off the covers and look at what you are | afraid of. Only the anticipation will frighten you, for the reality |
| Tx:11.29 | what he did is to exchange his self-love for self-hate, making him | afraid of himself. He does not realize this. Even if he is fully |
| Tx:11.33 | of what you do not want, projected from your mind because you were | afraid of it. |
| Tx:11.37 | love, and in its frantic search for love, it is seeking what it is | afraid to find. The search is inevitable because the ego is part of |
| Tx:11.71 | You are | afraid of me because you looked within and are afraid of what you |
| Tx:11.71 | You are afraid of me because you looked within and are | afraid of what you saw. Yet you could not have seen reality, for the |
| Tx:11.71 | could only bring you peace if you really looked upon it. If you are | afraid, it is because you saw something that is not there. Yet in |
| Tx:12.3 | guiltlessness anywhere, and it will try to destroy it because it is | afraid. |
| Tx:12.5 | wish has hidden him from you because it is very fearful, and you are | afraid to find him. You have handled this wish to kill yourself by |
| Tx:12.7 | stated that its goal for you is happiness and peace. Yet you are | afraid of it. You have been told again and again that it will make |
| Tx:12.8 | the ego, you do not look upon the alternative with gladness. You are | afraid of redemption, and you believe it will kill you. Make no |
| Tx:12.10 | fear if he recognizes it. Yet in your disordered state, you are not | afraid of fear. You do not like it, but it is not your desire to |
| Tx:12.10 | disturbed by your hostility. You keep it hidden because you are more | afraid of what it covers. |
| Tx:12.11 | would find within yourself something you fear even more. You are not | afraid of crucifixion. Your real terror is of redemption. Under the |
| Tx:12.11 | is the memory of God, and it is of this that you are really | afraid. For this memory would instantly restore you to your proper |
| Tx:12.14 | love because you think it would crush you into nothingness. You are | afraid it would sweep you away from yourself and make you little. For |
| Tx:12.15 | and what is given you is not so dear as what you made. You are more | afraid of God than of the ego, and love cannot enter where it is not |
| Tx:12.23 | And now the reason why you are | afraid of this course should be apparent. For this is a course on |
| Tx:12.46 | For the past can cast no shadow to darken the present unless you are | afraid of light. And only if you are would you choose to bring this |
| Tx:13.17 | over it and cannot see it because you cannot look within. You are | afraid of what you would see there, but it is not there. The thing |
| Tx:13.18 | Do not be | afraid to look within. The ego tells you all is black with guilt |
| Tx:13.18 | the dark, and guilty in the dark in which they shroud them, are too | afraid to look upon the light within. Within you is not what you |
| Tx:13.70 | that nothing has no power. And by not dispelling darkness, he became | afraid of darkness and of light. The joy of learning that darkness |
| Tx:14.17 | and you who made these guardians of illusion out of nothing are now | afraid of them. |
| Tx:15.8 | is what prevents you from understanding the present, because you are | afraid of it. The Holy Spirit leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego |
| Tx:15.45 | apparent to you that you do not know what anything means. You are | afraid of this because you believe that without the ego all would be |
| Tx:15.49 | arises from your use of it. All the love from His. Do not, then, be | afraid to let go your imagined needs, which would destroy the |
| Tx:15.75 | think it is, you will feel guilty about communication and will be | afraid to hear the Holy Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own |
| Tx:16.14 | the Holy Spirit and in the effects of His teaching if you were not | afraid to acknowledge what He taught you. For this acknowledgment |
| Tx:16.30 | Be not | afraid to look upon the special hate relationship, for freedom lies |
| Tx:16.35 | yourself, you can be certain that you perceive hatred within and are | afraid of it. Yet peace will never come from the illusion of love, |
| Tx:16.52 | And hating it, you have made it little and unworthy because you are | afraid of it. |
| Tx:18.6 | guilt implies it was accomplished in reality. And above all, be not | afraid of it. When you seem to see some twisted form of the original |
| Tx:18.25 | your willingness. Fear seems to live in darkness, and when you are | afraid, you have stepped back. Let us then join quickly in an instant |
| Tx:18.26 | so long despised. You go toward love, still hating it and terribly | afraid of its judgment upon you. And you do not realize that you are |
| Tx:18.26 | of its judgment upon you. And you do not realize that you are not | afraid of love, but only of what you have made of it. You are |
| Tx:19.49 | it sees no fear. Being wholly without attack, it could not be | afraid. Fear is attracted to what love sees not, and each believes |
| Tx:19.53 | the happy things they found, to share them lovingly with you. Be not | afraid of them. They offer you salvation. Theirs are the messages of |
| Tx:19.93 | makes life seem to be ugly, cruel, and tyrannical. You are no more | afraid of death than of the ego. These are your chosen friends. For |
| Tx:19.100 | Before complete forgiveness, you still stand unforgiving. You are | afraid of God because you fear each other. Those you do not forgive |
| Tx:20.11 | no obstacles to peace. The fear of God is nothing to you now. Who is | afraid to look upon illusions, knowing his savior stands beside him? |
| Tx:20.18 | The holy do not interfere with truth. They are not | afraid of it, for it is within the truth they recognized their |
| Tx:20.37 | eternity. No one who has a single purpose, unified and sure, can be | afraid. No one who shares his purpose with him can not be one with |
| Tx:20.51 | Idolaters will always be | afraid of love, for nothing so severely threatens them as love's |
| Tx:21.7 | life and where they live, adjusting to it as they think they must, | afraid to lose the little that they have. And so it is with all who |
| Tx:21.9 | remembered how dear it was to you. You could remember, yet you are | afraid, believing you would lose the world you learned since then. |
| Tx:21.37 | And if you seek to limit Him, you will hate Him because you are | afraid. The gift that He has given you is more than anything that |
| Tx:21.41 | He will correct, but this makes no one fearful. You are indeed | afraid to look within and see the sin you think is there. This you |
| Tx:21.44 | more did you. And yet this part with which you now identify is not | afraid to look upon itself. It knows no sin. How, otherwise, could it |
| Tx:21.46 | of the sane. You have perceived the ego's madness and not been made | afraid because you did not choose to share in it. At times it still |
| Tx:21.47 | And now the ego is | afraid. Yet what it hears in terror, the other part hears as the |
| Tx:21.50 | and it is sure that you will see yourself as tiny, vulnerable, and | afraid. You will experience depression, a sense of worthlessness, and |
| Tx:21.71 | can they do but envy him his power and by their envy make themselves | afraid of it? These are the dark ones, silent and afraid, alone and |
| Tx:21.71 | make themselves afraid of it? These are the dark ones, silent and | afraid, alone and not communicating, fearful the power of the Son of |
| Tx:25.38 | makes Christ your enemy and God along with Him. Must you not be | afraid with “enemies” like these? And must you not be fearful of |
| Tx:25.68 | by God's own angry hand. They do believe that Heaven is hell and are | afraid of love. And deep suspicion and the chill of fear comes over |
| Tx:26.58 | This is the treasure he has sought to find. And he could only be | afraid of it. Is fear a treasure? Can uncertainty be what you want? |
| Tx:26.70 | Salvation is immediate. Unless you so perceive it, you will be | afraid of it, believing that the risk of loss is great between the |
| Tx:27.45 | you heal. Your single purpose makes this possible. But if you are | afraid of healing, then it cannot come through you. The only thing |
| Tx:27.47 | when you accept the blessing that the holy instant brings? Be not | afraid of blessing, for the One Who blesses you loves all the world |
| Tx:27.47 | by the one who could have saved it but stepped back because he was | afraid of being healed? The eyes of all the dying bring reproach, and |
| Tx:28.12 | that instant does the Son of God do nothing that would make himself | afraid. |
| Tx:28.22 | true. This is a crucial step in dealing with illusions. No one is | afraid of them when he perceives he made them up. The fear was held |
| Tx:28.35 | Be not | afraid, but let your world be lit by miracles. And where the gap was |
| Tx:29.2 | since fear and hate can never be apart. No one who hates but is | afraid of love and therefore must he be afraid of God. Certain it is |
| Tx:29.2 | No one who hates but is afraid of love and therefore must he be | afraid of God. Certain it is he knows not what love means. He fears |

| Tx:29.66 | hurts and what will heal. And bad things seem to happen, and he is | afraid of all the chaos in a world he thinks is governed by the laws |
| Tx:30.50 | him and have broken his “control” of what surrounds him. And he is | afraid because he thought the rules protected him. Now must he learn |

| Tx:30.94 | a dream allow uncertainty to enter here. Be not made guilty and | afraid when you are tempted by a dream of what he is. But do not give |
| Tx:31.23 | fearful images he holds of what he is and of what you must be. He is | afraid to walk with you and thinks perhaps a bit behind, a bit ahead, |
| Tx:31.59 | and free of guilt. There is no statement that the world is more | afraid to hear than this: |
| W1:4.2 | of today's idea, the usual specificity is required. Do not be | afraid to use “good” thoughts as well as “bad.” None of them |
| W1:5.3 | I am not angry at ____ for the reason I think. I am not | afraid of ____ for the reason I think. |

| W1:26.13 | After you have named each outcome of which you are | afraid, tell yourself: |

| W1:87.2 | It is not my will to grope about in darkness, fearful of shadows and | afraid of things unseen and unreal. Light shall be my guide today. I |

| W1:191.1 | role of jailer to the Son of God. What could it be but vicious and | afraid, fearful of shadows, punitive and wild, lacking all reason, |
| W1:195.5 | for all who will escape with you—the sick, the weak, the needy and | afraid, and those who mourn a seeming loss or feel apparent pain, who |

| Tx:28.11 | and what has come to take its place will not be wholly unremembered | afterwards. |
| Tx:31.14 | in its relinquishment. The first is a decision that you make. But | afterwards the truth is given you. You would establish truth. And by |
| W1:27.6 | a definite time interval for using the idea when you wake or shortly | afterwards and attempt to adhere to it throughout the day. It will |

| W1:136.4 | has been judged as real? All this cannot be done unconsciously. But | afterwards your plan requires that you must forget you made it, so it |
| W2:I.11 | and the periods of wordless, deep experience which should come | afterwards. These special thoughts should be reviewed each day, each |

| Tx:2.66 | It should be emphasized | again that the body does not learn any more than it creates. As a |
| Tx:3.31 | or know yourselves, each other, or God. To recognize means to “know | again,” implying that you knew before. You can see in many ways, |
| Tx:3.39 | Consciousness is thus the level of perception but not of knowledge. | Again, to perceive is not to know. |
| Tx:4.14 | because I have no right to set your learning limits for you. Once | again—nothing you do or think or wish or make is necessary to |
| Tx:4.48 | experienced the revelation of this can ever fully believe in the ego | again. How can its meager offering to you prevail against the |
| Tx:4.50 | used quite literally here—you will never be able to cover or hide | again. It is necessary to repeat here that your belief in darkness |
| Tx:4.104 | allow your ego to recover and to gain enough strength to be helpful | again on a basis limited enough not to threaten your ego but too |
| Tx:5.19 | the Voice that calls you back to where you were before and will be | again. |
| Tx:5.21 | the separation you did not need guidance. You knew as you will know | again, but as you do not know now. God does not guide because He can |
| Tx:5.59 | at its disposal to side with Heaven or earth, as it elects. But | again, let us remember that both are in you. In Heaven there is no |
| Tx:5.66 | changed. This is repeated here because you have not learned it. But | again, your decision can be unmade as well as made. Remember, though, |
| Tx:5.87 | to itself than the external reality with which it disagrees. This | again could have been a powerful release mechanism had Freud not |
| Tx:6.4 | For teaching purposes, let us consider the crucifixion | again. We have not dwelt on it before because of its fearful |
| Tx:6.24 | God thinks, and you must think as He thinks if you are to know Him | again. |
| Tx:6.62 | what you have made and translates it into a learning device for you. | Again as always, He re-interprets what the ego uses as an argument |
| Tx:7.110 | remember are literally denying Heaven to yourselves. I call upon you | again to remember that I have chosen you to teach the Kingdom to the |
| Tx:9.66 | so. And it is in this remembering that you will know it can be so | again. What is possible has not yet been accomplished. Yet what has |
| Tx:9.69 | Him when you are willing to remember Him and know your own reality | again. Let nothing in this world delay your remembering of Him, for |
| Tx:9.70 | already there. You do not make what you remember; you merely accept | again what has been made but was rejected. The ability to accept |
| Tx:10.4 | upon ours. I come to you from our Father to offer you everything | again. Do not refuse it in order to keep a dark cornerstone hidden, |
| Tx:10.5 | of knowledge, the foundation on which God will help you build | again the thought system which you share with Him. Not one stone you |
| Tx:10.69 | eternal are not re-created. To perceive anew is merely to perceive | again, implying that before, or in the interval, you were not |
| Tx:10.89 | they are not afraid. And because of this, they will ask for truth | again when they are frightened. It is not the reality of your |
| Tx:12.7 | is happiness and peace. Yet you are afraid of it. You have been told | again and again that it will make you free, yet you react as if it is |
| Tx:12.7 | and peace. Yet you are afraid of it. You have been told again and | again that it will make you free, yet you react as if it is trying to |
| Tx:12.35 | him. Projection makes perception, and you cannot see beyond it. | Again and again have men attacked each other because they saw in them |
| Tx:12.35 | Projection makes perception, and you cannot see beyond it. Again and | again have men attacked each other because they saw in them a shadow |
| Tx:12.47 | in everyone you meet because you see Him through Himself. To be born | again is to let the past go and look without condemnation upon the |
| Tx:12.48 | miracle, which could intervene between them, to free you to be born | again. |
| Tx:12.49 | you to see your brother without his past and so perceive him as born | again. His errors are all past, and by perceiving him without them, |
| Tx:12.69 | you that you need will hurt you. For although the ego urges you | again and again to get, it leaves you nothing, for what you get, it |
| Tx:12.69 | you need will hurt you. For although the ego urges you again and | again to get, it leaves you nothing, for what you get, it will demand |
| Tx:13.24 | to hold you to the past, but with each one each day be born | again. A minute, even less, will be enough to free you from the past |
| Tx:15.5 | Again the ego tries and all too frequently succeeds in doing both by | |
| Tx:15.10 | condemnation. From this holy instant wherein holiness was born | again, you will go forth in time without fear and with no sense of |
| Tx:15.21 | God in you. Use it but for one instant, and you will never deny it | again. Who can deny the Presence of what the universe bows to in |
| Tx:16.16 | while. The Host of God has called to you, and you have heard. Never | again will you be wholly willing not to listen. |
| Tx:17.21 | attract you that you will be unwilling ever to lose the sight of it | again. And you will let it transform the relationship so you can see |
| Tx:17.42 | into His rightful place and you to yours, you will experience | again the meaning of relationship and know it to be true. Let us |
| Tx:17.45 | unholy relationship has accepted the goal of holiness, it can never | again be what it was. |
| Tx:17.51 | not this is loss. In your newness, remember that you have started | again together. And take each other's hand to walk together along a |
| Tx:17.61 | And you will recognize the outcome because you are at peace. Here | again, you see the opposite of the ego's way of looking, for the ego |
| Tx:18.4 | wholeness. It has become so splintered and subdivided and divided | again, over and over, that it is now almost impossible to perceive it |
| Tx:18.64 | the miracle of Atonement happens. Afterwards, you will see the body | again, but never quite the same. And every instant that you spend |
| Tx:19.14 | There will you see the miracle of your relationship as it was made | again through faith. And there it is that you will realize that there |
| Tx:19.36 | behold what He would show you in each other, and let not sin arise | again to blind your eyes. For sin would keep you separate, but your |
| Tx:19.96 | will to look on this. No mad desire, no trivial impulse to forget | again, no stab of fear, nor the cold sweat of seeming death can stand |
| Tx:19.99 | to look upon it or wander on, only to return and make the choice | again. |
| Tx:19.105 | Here is the holy place of resurrection to which we come | again; to which we will return until redemption is accomplished and |
| Tx:19.107 | together the way unto the resurrection of God's Son and let him rise | again to glad remembrance of his Father, Who knows no sin, no death, |
| Tx:20.55 | he is more dead than living. Yet it is also here he makes his choice | again between idolatry and love. |
| Tx:20.68 | for certainty? Would you not willingly be free of misery and learn | again of joy? Your holy relationship offers all this to you. As it |
| Tx:20.74 | each different and with different values. Yet they are all the same. | Again there is no order but a seeming hierarchy of values. |
| Tx:21.7 | brothers have. They try to reach each other, and they fail and fail | again. And they adjust to loneliness, believing that to keep the body |
| Tx:21.22 | interference with what will happen of itself; simply to recognize | again the presence of what you thought you gave away. |
| Tx:21.45 | began. And it desired nothing but to join with him and to be free | again, as once it was. It has been waiting for the birth of freedom, |
| Tx:21.81 | The others are decisions which can be made and then unmade and made | again. But truth is constant and implies a state where vacillations |
| Tx:21.82 | For only then have you renounced the option to change your mind | again. When it is this you do not want, the rest are wholly answered. |
| Tx:22.24 | would not be the mind's extensions but its enemies. And here we see | again another form of the same fundamental illusion we have seen many |
| Tx:22.55 | bring is given you. And every empty place in Heaven that you fill | again with the Eternal Light you bring shines now on you. The means |
| Tx:23.2 | it because of this; and you will think that you succeeded and attack | again. It is as certain you will fear what you attack as it is sure |
| Tx:23.23 | the Father and the Son. Now it appears that they can never be one | again. For one must always be condemned and by the other. Now are |
| Tx:24.67 | means. Not till you go past learning to the Given; not till you make | again a holy home for your creations is it understood. |
| Tx:25.32 | change unless the aim is changed. And then the means are chosen once | again, as what will bring rejoicing is defined another way and sought |
| Tx:25.36 | that falls is given life in you. Each bird that ever sang will sing | again in you. And every flower that ever bloomed has saved its |
| Tx:25.42 | attack believe He hates you, thinking Heaven must be hell. Look once | again upon your brother, not without the understanding that he is the |
| Tx:26.7 | Yet every instant can you be reborn and given life | again. His holiness gives life to you, who cannot die because his |
| Tx:26.8 | must he be eternally and everywhere. He is the same forever—born | again each instant, untouched by time, and far beyond the reach of |
| Tx:26.10 | attempt to solve it in a special form. It will recur and then recur | again and yet again until it has been answered for all time and will |
| Tx:26.10 | it in a special form. It will recur and then recur again and yet | again until it has been answered for all time and will not rise again |
| Tx:26.10 | yet again until it has been answered for all time and will not rise | again in any form. And only then are you released from it. |
| Tx:26.15 | whom you wish to be preserved from sacrifice entirely. Consider once | again your special function. One is given you to see in him his |
| Tx:26.25 | to his real function of creating, which his forgiveness offers him | again. |
| Tx:26.27 | is what was lost restored to them and all their radiance made whole | again. |
| Tx:26.35 | sin, is that one instant still called back, as if it could be made | again in time. You keep an ancient memory before your eyes. And he |
| Tx:26.37 | to it as real is but a wish that what is gone could be made real | again and seen as here and now in place of what is really now and |
| Tx:26.42 | time of terror was replaced by love. And so you die each day to live | again until you cross the gap between past and present, which is not |
| Tx:26.42 | is each life—a seeming interval from birth to death and on to life | again, a repetition of an instant gone by long ago, which cannot be |
| Tx:26.43 | is no hindrance to the Will of God nor any need that you repeat | again a journey that was over long ago. Look gently on each other and |
| Tx:26.63 | Each instant is the Son of God reborn, until he chooses not to die | again. In every wish to hurt, he chooses death instead of what his |
| Tx:26.79 | The blood of hatred fades to let the grass grow green | again and let the flowers be all white and sparkling in the summer |
| Tx:26.79 | Because of Them. It is Their Presence which has lifted holiness | again to take its ancient place upon an ancient throne. Because of |
| Tx:26.80 | brighter as each one comes home. The incomplete is made complete | again, and Heaven's joy has been increased because what is its own |
| Tx:26.84 | Now is the temple of the Living God rebuilt as host | again to Him by Whom it was created. Where He dwells, His Son dwells |
| Tx:27.10 | to nothing yet, its purpose being open and the mind made free | again to choose what it is for. Now is it not condemned, but waiting |
| Tx:27.13 | and could love and trust him still? He has attacked and will attack | again. Protect him not, because your damaged body shows that you must |
| Tx:27.55 | Sin shifts from pain to pleasure and | again to pain. For either witness is the same and carries but one |
| Tx:27.79 | taught in many ways. This single lesson does it try to teach | again, and still again, and yet once more that it is cause and not |
| Tx:27.79 | many ways. This single lesson does it try to teach again, and still | again, and yet once more that it is cause and not effect. And you are |
| Tx:28.5 | it, waiting your command that they be brought to you and lived | again. And thus do their effects appear to be increased by time, |
| Tx:28.44 | the broken picture of the Son of God and put the pieces into place | again. This holy picture, healed entirely, does He hold out to every |
| Tx:28.57 | every brother who would walk apart. This is the secret oath you take | again, whenever you perceive yourself attacked. No one can suffer if |
| Tx:29.3 | a little while. But not without a gap between you, lest he turn | again into an enemy. [Let him come close to you, and you jumped back; |
| Tx:29.4 | to meet when you prefer and separate until you both elect to meet | again. And then your bodies seem to get in touch and signify a |
| Tx:29.4 | gets away from total sacrifice and gives you time in which to build | again your separate selves, which you believe diminish as you meet. |
| Tx:29.68 | forever deep within the Son of God. And when he hears this song | again, he knows he never heard it not. And where is time, when dreams |
| Tx:30.2 | is a way in which this very day can happen just like that. Then try | again to have the day you want. |
| Tx:30.7 | think of it and have a quiet moment for reflection, tell yourself | again the kind of day you want, the feelings you would have, the |
| Tx:30.11 | 3. Remember once | again the day you want and recognize that something has occurred |
| Tx:30.28 | practicing the rules for its undoing. Let us, then, consider once | again the very first of the decisions which are offered here. |
| Tx:30.35 | Look once | again upon your enemy, the one you chose to hate instead of love. For |
| Tx:30.44 | aware of them and sometimes not. An unremembered thought is born | again to you when it returns to your awareness. Yet it did not die |
| Tx:30.52 | to the rules you set for them. But then they fall and cannot rise | again. They are but toys, my children. Do not grieve for them. Their |
| Tx:30.62 | forgiveness washes joyfully away. Yet God need not create His Son | again that what is his be given back to him. The gap between your |
| Tx:30.62 | never there. And what the Son of God knew in creation, he must know | again. |
| Tx:30.88 | forgiveness has been given to us all, and thus we can communicate | again. |
| Tx:30.89 | and yet you thought it real before, and now you think it real | again. Reality is thus reduced to form and capable of change. Reality |
| Tx:31.12 | you are free to learn of him and learn of him anew. Now is he born | again to you, and you are born again to him without the past that |
| Tx:31.12 | and learn of him anew. Now is he born again to you, and you are born | again to him without the past that sentenced him to die, and you with |
| Tx:31.14 | Let us review | again what seems to stand between you and the truth of what you are. |
| Tx:31.40 | can but decide how you would choose the better to deceive yourself | again. This course attempts to teach no more than that the power of |
| Tx:31.84 | Choose once | again if you would take your place among the saviors of the world, or |
| Tx:31.87 | Trials are but lessons which you failed to learn presented once | again, so where you made a faulty choice before, you now can make a |
| Tx:31.87 | perplexity Christ calls to you and gently says, “My brother, choose | again.” He would not leave one source of pain unhealed nor any image |
| Tx:31.88 | of temptation then, but see it as it is—another chance to choose | again and let Christ's strength prevail in every circumstance and |
| Tx:31.92 | weakness, opening the way to his salvation and release. Choose once | again what you would have him be, remembering that every choice you |
| Tx:31.94 | many chances to perceive another situation where God's gift can once | again be recognized as ours! And thus will all the vestiges of hell, |
| Tx:31.94 | His certainty I rest content. For you will hear, and you will choose | again. And in this choice is everyone made free. |
| W1:5.4 | But | again, this should not be substituted for practice periods in which |
| W1:6.1 | The exercises with this idea are very similar to the preceding ones. | Again, it is necessary to name both the form of upset (anger, fear, |
| W1:6.4 | Again, if you resist applying the idea to some upsetting thoughts | |
| W1:9.7 | It is emphasized | again that while complete inclusion should not be attempted, specific |
| W1:10.1 | your real thoughts. We have made this distinction before and will | again. You have no basis for comparison as yet. When you do, you will |
| W1:19.2 | Today we are | again emphasizing the fact that minds are joined. This is rarely a |
| W1:31.1 | Today's idea is the introduction to your declaration of release. | Again, the idea should be applied to both the world you see without |
| W1:32.2 | since you see them as different, the practice periods for today will | again include two phases, one involving the world you see outside you |
| W1:32.3 | Again we will begin the practice periods for the morning and evening | |
| W1:36.6 | close your eyes and repeat the idea; look about you as you repeat it | again; and conclude with one more repetition with your eyes closed. |
| W1:37.8 | the practice period with your eyes closed; you may open your eyes | again and apply the idea for today to your outer world if you so |
| W1:40.1 | schedule and to adhere to it whenever possible. If you forget, try | again. If there are long interruptions, try again. Whenever you |
| W1:40.1 | If you forget, try again. If there are long interruptions, try | again. Whenever you remember, try again. |
| W1:40.1 | there are long interruptions, try again. Whenever you remember, try | again. |
| W1:42.4 | open, looking about you. Then close your eyes and repeat the idea | again, quite slowly. After this, try to think of nothing except |
| W1:43.8 | phase of the exercise period, close your eyes, repeat today's idea | again, and then let whatever relevant thoughts occur to you add to |
| W1:43.11 | your eyes, repeat the first phase, and then try the second phase | again. Do not allow any protracted period to occur in which you |
| W1:45.6 | have added some four or five thoughts of your own, repeat the idea | again, and tell yourself gently: |
| W1:52.5 | What I have chosen to see has cost me vision. Now I would choose | again that I may see. |
| W1:64.5 | this today. Let us remind ourselves of it in the morning and | again at night and all through the day as well. |
| W1:65.5 | for today. Then close your eyes, repeat the idea to yourself once | again, and watch your mind carefully to catch whatever thoughts cross |
| W1:68.5 | by ever so little, there will never be a problem in motivation ever | again. |
| W1:70.7 | We will follow this practice for a number of lessons, and it would | again be well to decide in advance when would be a good time to lay |
| W1:70.12 | Now we will try | again to reach the light in you, which is where your salvation is. |
| W1:73.15 | In the shorter practice periods, | again make a declaration of what you really want. Say: |
| W1:74.12 | off into withdrawal, quickly repeat the idea for today and try | again. Do this as often as necessary. There is definite gain in |
| W1:76.2 | where it is not and never find it. The idea for today tells you once | again how simple is salvation. Look for it where it waits for you, |
| W1:77.1 | God is. And you will offer miracles because you are one with God. | Again, how simple is salvation! It is merely a statement of your true |
| W1:79.5 | of denial and rise to haunt you from time to time, only to be hidden | again but still unsolved. |
| W1:92.8 | shift from night to day and back to darkness till the morning comes | again. The light of strength is constant, sure as love, forever glad |
| W1:92.9 | of God is where your Self, His Son, is waiting now to meet itself | again and be as one. |
| W1:92.11 | use the day in preparation for the time at night when we will meet | again in hope and trust. Let us repeat as often as we can the idea |
| W1:93.15 | quickly dispel the illusion of fear by repeating these thoughts | again. Should you be tempted to become angry with someone, tell him |
| W1:94.3 | Today we will | again devote the first five minutes of each waking hour to the |
| W1:95.3 | of only what can hear and see and what makes perfect sense. We will | again direct our exercises towards reaching your One Self, which is |
| W1:95.3 | which is united with its Creator. In patience and in hope we try | again today. |
| W1:95.7 | use your lapses from this schedule as an excuse not to return to it | again as soon as you can. |
| W1:95.8 | to let your mistakes be corrected and an unwillingness to try | again. |
| W1:95.12 | the truth, and nothing else is true. Today we will affirm this truth | again and try to reach the place in you in which there is no doubt |
| W1:95.14 | Then close your eyes and tell yourself | again, slowly and thoughtfully, attempting to allow the meaning of |
| W1:96.15 | will welcome it and give it peace. Restored in strength, it will | again flow out from Spirit to the Spirit in all things created by the |
| W1:97.2 | We state | again the truth about your Self, the holy Son of God who rests in you |
| W1:97.7 | leads you out of darkness, nor will you be able to forget the way | again. |
| W1:98.4 | we heard and answer it, when they have come to make their choice | again. We do not choose but for ourselves today. |
| W1:98.12 | spent in happy preparation for the next five minutes you will spend | again with Him. Repeat today's idea while you wait for the glad time |
| W1:98.12 | Repeat today's idea while you wait for the glad time to come to you | again. Repeat it often, and do not forget each time you do so, you |
| W1:98.13 | tasks, all little thoughts and limited ideas, and spend a happy time | again with Him. Tell Him once more that you accept the part which He |
| W1:101.9 | So should you start your practice periods, and then attempt | again to find the joy these thoughts will introduce into your mind. |
| W1:103.3 | This basic error we will try | again to bring to truth today and teach ourselves: |
| W1:106.11 | hear the holy Word you hear. And when the hour is past, you will | again release a thousand more who pause to ask that truth be given |
| W1:107.5 | not shift and alter in its form, nor come and go and go and come | again. It stays exactly as it always was, to be depended on in every |
| W1:107.14 | And yet you will be glad to look | again upon this world. For you will bring with you the promise of the |
| W1:109.2 | for a while. Here is the thought in which the Son of God is born | again, to recognize himself. |
| W1:109.7 | with broken wings begins to sing, a stream long dry begins to flow | again. The world is born again each time you rest, and hourly |
| W1:109.7 | to sing, a stream long dry begins to flow again. The world is born | again each time you rest, and hourly remember that you came to bring |
| W1:109.8 | will hear the bird begin to sing and see the stream begin to flow | again, with hope reborn and energy restored to walk with lightened |
| W1:R3.11 | peace throughout the day as well. If you are shaken, think of it | again. These practice periods are planned to help you form the habit |
| W1:R3.13 | come from these reviews with learning gains so great that we begin | again on solid ground, with firmer footsteps and with stronger faith. |
| W1:122.2 | no dreams of fear and evil, malice, and attack. And when you wake | again, it offers you another day of happiness and peace. All this |
| W1:122.7 | Here is the answer! Do not turn away in aimless wandering | again. Accept salvation now. It is the gift of God and not the world. |
| W1:122.13 | Let not your gifts recede throughout the day, as you return | again to meet a world of shifting change and bleak appearances. |
| W1:124.1 | Today we will | again give thanks for our Identity in God. Our home is safe, |
| W1:129.5 | from timelessness. Here can you but look forward, never back to see | again the world you do not want. Here is the world that comes to take |
| W1:132.7 | and go still farther, or perhaps step back a while and then return | again. |
| W1:132.10 | A lesson earlier repeated once must now be stressed | again, for it contains the firm foundation for today's idea. You are |
| W1:134.5 | —first by themselves for what they think they did and once | again by those who pardon them. |
| W1:135.27 | remember Him. For this is Eastertime in your salvation. And you rise | again from what was seeming death and hopelessness. Now is the light |
| W1:136.7 | upon the whole, successful in effect, and never to be seen as whole | again. And yet you have forgotten that they stand but for your own |
| W1:136.21 | to judgment, or make plans against uncertainties to come, you have | again misplaced yourself, and made a bodily identity which will |
| W1:137.3 | he be apart and separate. But healing is his own decision to be one | again and to accept his Self with all its parts intact and |
| W1:138.9 | is veiled in shadows must be raised to understanding to be judged | again, this time with Heaven's help, and all mistakes in judgment |
| W1:138.12 | which we awoke. As every hour passed, we have declared our choice | again in a brief quiet time devoted to maintaining sanity. And |
| W1:139.7 | And they will come | again until the time Atonement is accepted, and they learn it is |
| W1:140.11 | to us five minutes as the day begins and end the day by listening | again five minutes more before we go to sleep. Our only preparation |
| W1:R4.1 | Now we review | again, this time aware we are preparing for the second part of |
| W1:R4.12 | of His Word. And as you give your mind to the ideas for the day | again before you sleep, His gratitude surrounds you in the peace |
| W1:R4.12 | peace wherein He wills you be forever and are learning now to claim | again as your inheritance. |
| W1:152.14 | Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left will come | again to our awareness, grateful to restore His home to God as it was |
| W1:153.1 | brief relationships and all the “gifts” it merely lends to take away | again, attend this lesson well. The world provides no safety. It is |
| W1:153.1 | seeming safety are illusory deceptions. It attacks and then attacks | again. No peace of mind is possible where danger threatens thus. |
| W1:153.3 | in heavy bands of steel with iron overlaid, returning but to start | again. There seems to be no break nor ending in the ever-tightening |
| W1:154.4 | in the mind that God created sinless. Now this mind becomes aware | again of Who created it and of His lasting union with itself. So is |
| W1:155.8 | but from illusions he is saved. As they step back, he finds himself | again. |
| W1:157.9 | your remembrance of what you knew that instant and will surely know | again. |
| W1:158.4 | at which it ended, looking back on it, imagining we make it once | again; reviewing mentally what has gone by. |
| W1:159.7 | what was lost when it was made. For here it is repaired, made new | again but in a different light. What was to be the home of sin |
| W1:159.9 | world into a garden like the one they came from and to which they go | again with added fragrance. Now are they twice blessed. The messages |
| W1:160.9 | they give Him welcome, they remember. And He leads them gently home | again where they belong. |
| W1:161.8 | external to himself, poised to attack and howling to unite with him | again. Mistake not the intensity of rage projected fear must spawn. |
| W1:163.5 | says but this: “Here lies a witness God is dead.” And this it writes | again and still again, while all the while its worshipers agree, and |
| W1:163.5 | lies a witness God is dead.” And this it writes again and still | again, while all the while its worshipers agree, and kneeling down |
| W1:163.6 | else they live and cannot die. No compromise is possible. For here | again we see an obvious position which we must accept if we be sane; |
| W1:170.14 | bless the world with what we have received from You alone. We choose | again and make our choice for all our brothers, knowing they are one |
| W1:R5.1 | We now review | again. This time we are ready to give more effort and more time to |
| W1:R5.1 | understanding. We would take this step completely, that we may go on | again more certain, more sincere, with faith upheld more surely. Our |
| W1:R5.4 | more descriptive of the holy Self we share and now prepare to know | again: |
| W1:R5.9 | My resurrection comes | again each time I lead a brother safely to the place at which the |
| W1:R5.10 | Release me as you practice once | again the thoughts I brought to you from Him Who sees your bitter |
| W1:R5.14 | of practice time. And with this thought we sleep, to waken once | again with these same words upon our lips to greet another day. No |
| W1:R5.15 | it is only here conviction lies. We use the words, and try and try | again to go beyond them to their meaning, which is far beyond their |
| W1:181.4 | that, even if you should succeed, you will inevitably lose your way | again. How could this matter? For the past is gone, the future but |
| W1:182.1 | hardly remembered, actively dismissed, but surely to return to mind | again. |
| W1:182.4 | Perhaps you think it is your childhood home that you would find | again. The childhood of your body and its place of shelter are a |
| W1:182.5 | of respite—just an interval in which He can return to breathe | again the holy air that fills His Father's house. You are His home as |
| W1:182.7 | bring you back with Him, that He Himself might stay and not return | again where He does not belong and where He lives an outcast in a |
| W1:183.6 | and to His Son. Practice but this today; repeat God's Name slowly | again and still again. Become oblivious to every name but His. |
| W1:183.6 | Practice but this today; repeat God's Name slowly again and still | again. Become oblivious to every name but His. |
| W1:186.9 | leaves that form a patterning an instant, break apart to group | again, and scamper off. Or like mirages seen above a desert, rising |
| W1:190.11 | And so | again we make the only choice that ever can be made—we choose |
| W1:191.10 | Who could see the world as dark and sinful when God's Son has come | again at last to set it free? |
| W1:191.12 | Son of God awaken from his sleep, and opening his holy eyes return | again to bless the world he made. In error it began. But it will end |
| W1:192.6 | for His holy Son. Only forgiveness can persuade the Son to look | again upon his holiness. With anger gone, you will indeed perceive |
| W1:192.8 | Who can be born | again in Christ but him who has forgiven everyone he sees or thinks |
| W1:193.13 | that laughter should replace each one and that His Son be free | again. |
| W1:194.7 | may be faulty but will never lack correction. He is free to choose | again when he has been deceived, to change his mind when he has made |
| W1:194.8 | in the hands of God. For thus you call the memory of Him to come | again, replacing all your thoughts of sin and evil with the truth of |
| W1:195.7 | the way is opening at last to us. An ancient door is swinging free | again; a long forgotten Word re-echoes in our memory and gathers |
| W1:195.7 | re-echoes in our memory and gathers clarity as we are willing once | again to hear. |
| W1:197.1 | attempts at kindness and forgiveness. Yet you turn them to attack | again unless you find external gratitude and lavish thanks. Your |
| W1:197.5 | and adding to your never-ending joy, while you forgive but to attack | again. |
| W1:197.6 | of God are lent but for a little while before He snatches them away | again in death. For death will have no meaning for you then. |
| W1:198.7 | his Father. You may think They have accepted, but if you will look | again upon the place where you beheld Their blood, you will perceive |
| W1:200.3 | find. For what could be more foolish than to seek and seek and seek | again for hell, when you have but to look with open eyes to find that |
| W1:200.9 | Let us not lose our way | again today. We go to Heaven, and the path is straight. Only if we |
| W1:R6.1 | from every form of bondage and invite the memory of God to come | again. |
| W2:I.9 | the wide horizons of our minds. A moment more, and it will rise | again. A moment more, and we who are God's Sons are safely home, |
| W2:227.2 | this day lays down his dreams. The Son of God this day comes home | again, released from sin and clad in holiness, with his right mind |
| W2:WS.4 | birds have come to live within their branches. Earth is being born | again in new perception. Night has gone, and we have come together in |
| W2:234.1 | the time when dreams of sin and guilt are gone and we have reached | again the holy peace we never left. Merely a tiny instant has elapsed |
| W2:238.2 | And so | again today we pause to think how much our Father loves us. And how |
| W2:241.2 | We have forgiven one another now, and so we come at last to You | again. Father, Your Son, who never left, returns to Heaven and his |
| W2:248.2 | Father, my ancient love for You returns and lets me love Your Son | again as well. Father, I am as You created me. Now is Your Love |
| W2:249.2 | them with thoughts of violence and death. Now would we rest | again in You, as You created us. |
| W2:260.1 | me. Let me remember my Identity. And let my sinlessness arise | again before Christ's vision, through which I would look upon my |
| W2:303.1 | Father's Love. Let Him no longer be a stranger here, for He is born | again in me today. |
| W2:304.2 | gift, my Father, given me to offer to Your holy Son that he may find | again the memory of You and of Your Son as You created him. |
| W2:323.2 | longer. Love has now returned to our awareness. And we are at peace | again, for fear has gone and only love remains. |
| W2:332.2 | We would not bind the world | again today. Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has given us |
| W2:334.1 | that rest on false perception. Let me not accept such meager gifts | again today. God's Voice is offering the peace of God to all who hear |
| W2:342.1 | wondering if I should enter in and be at home. Let me not wait | again today. Let me forgive all things, and let creation be as You |
| W2:352.1 | here, reminds me You have given me a way to find Your peace | again. I am redeemed when I elect to follow in this way. You have not |
| W2:FL.1 | as to Him we give our lives henceforth. For we would not return | again to the belief in sin, which made the world seem ugly and |
| M:2.1 | His pupils have been waiting for him, for his coming is certain. | Again, it is only a matter of time. Once he has chosen to fulfill his |
| M:2.4 | of remembering. Yet because it is an instant that is relived | again and again and still again, it seems to be now. And thus it is |
| M:2.4 | remembering. Yet because it is an instant that is relived again and | again and still again, it seems to be now. And thus it is that pupil |
| M:2.4 | because it is an instant that is relived again and again and still | again, it seems to be now. And thus it is that pupil and teacher seem |
| M:3.4 | nor is what appears to be the end of the relationship a real end. | Again, each has learned the most he can at the time. Yet all who meet |
| M:3.4 | the most he can at the time. Yet all who meet will someday meet | again, for it is the destiny of all relationships to become holy. God |
| M:4.4 | been experienced, it is impossible to trust one's own petty strength | again. Who would attempt to fly with the tiny wings of a sparrow when |
| M:11.2 | Again we come to the question of judgment. This time, ask yourself | |
| M:11.4 | its gracious Presence, and it leans down in answer to raise it up | again. Now is the question different. It is no longer, “Can peace be |
| M:16.2 | it is well to start the day right. It is always possible to begin | again, should the day begin with error, yet there are obvious |
| M:16.11 | go. And thus the Gate of Heaven is reopened, and its light can shine | again on an untroubled mind. |
| M:17.6 | must be death. How then can one believe in one's defenses? Magic | again must help. Forget the battle. Accept it as a fact, and then |
| M:19.5 | indefensible. Perception rests, the mind is still, and light returns | again. Vision is now restored. What had been lost has now been found. |
| M:20.4 | Returning anger, in whatever form, will drop the heavy curtain once | again, and the belief that peace cannot exist will certainly return. |
| M:20.4 | and the belief that peace cannot exist will certainly return. War is | again accepted as the one reality. Now must you once again lay down |

| M:20.4 | sword, although you may not recognize that you have picked it up | again. But you will learn, as you remember even faintly now what |
| M:20.4 | now what happiness was yours without it, that you must have taken it | again as your defense. Stop for a moment now and think of this: is |
| M:23.5 | of salvation through his learning? Why would you choose to start | again when he has made the journey for you? |

| Tx:24.38 | Long | ago we said consider not the means by which salvation is attained nor |

| Tx:26.33 | in your mind. Uncertainty was brought to certainty so long | ago that it is hard indeed to hold it to your heart as if it were |

| Tx:26.43 | God nor any need that you repeat again a journey that was over long | ago. Look gently on each other and behold the world in which |
| Tx:28.1 | memory, appears to have immediate effects. This world was over long | ago. The thoughts that made it are no longer in the mind that thought |
| M:2.2 | same instant was God's Answer given. In time this happened very long | ago. In reality it never happened at all. |
| M:2.3 | The world of time is the world of illusion. What happened long | ago seems to be happening now. Choices made long since appear to be |
| M:2.3 | open, yet to be made. What has been learned and understood and long | ago passed by is looked upon as a new thought, a fresh idea, a |

| Tx:30.65 | it goes all hatred and all fear. Look back no longer, for what lies | ahead is all you ever wanted in your hearts. Give up the world! But |
| Tx:31.23 | He is afraid to walk with you and thinks perhaps a bit behind, a bit | ahead, would be a safer place for him to be. Can you make progress if |
| Tx:31.23 | only when he would step back and falling back when he would go | ahead? For so do you forget the journey's goal, which is but to |
| W1:69.7 | you will begin to feel a sense of being lifted up and carried | ahead. Your little effort and small determination call on the power |
| W1:121.3 | and all it sees, afraid and angry, weak and blustering, afraid to go | ahead, afraid to stay, afraid to waken or to go to sleep, afraid of |

| W1:196.8 | next steps will be easy if you take this one today. From there we go | ahead quite rapidly. For once you understand it is impossible that |
| W2:I.6 | its replacement given us by You. We look not backward now. We look | ahead and fix our eyes upon the journey's end. Accept these little |
| W2:225.1 | kindly light, inviolate—beloved, with fear behind and only peace | ahead. How still the way Your loving Son is led along to You! |

| Tx:14.14 | to whomever you see as guiltless. Crucifixion is always the ego's | aim. It sees as guilty, and by its condemnation, it would kill. The |
| Tx:17.29 | which you have ever undertaken has as its fundamental purpose the | aim of occupying your minds so completely that you will not hear the |
| Tx:18.66 | not attempt to teach more than they learned in time, but it does | aim at saving time. You are attempting to follow a very long road to |
| Tx:24.68 | one thought with purpose still uncertain, or one wish with a divided | aim. |
| Tx:25.9 | The Holy Spirit serves Christ's purpose in your mind, so that the | aim of specialness can be corrected where the error lies. Because His |
| Tx:25.32 | seeks for what will bring him joy as he defines it. It is not the | aim as such that varies. Yet it is the way in which the aim is seen |
| Tx:25.32 | is not the aim as such that varies. Yet it is the way in which the | aim is seen that makes the choice of means inevitable and beyond the |
| Tx:25.32 | choice of means inevitable and beyond the hope of change unless the | aim is changed. And then the means are chosen once again, as what |
| Tx:25.36 | ever bloomed has saved its perfume and its loveliness for you. What | aim can supersede the Will of God and of His Son that Heaven be |
| Tx:25.37 | of sin. Attack and sin are bound as one illusion, each the cause and | aim and justifier of the other. Each is meaningless alone, but seems |
| Tx:25.45 | the world for them to fill, no place where they are needed, and no | aim which only they can perfectly fulfill. |
| Tx:26.22 | is the learning goal this course has set. It will not go beyond this | aim. Its only purpose is to teach what is the same and what is |
| Tx:27.33 | aid has use which can extend beyond the goal of learning. When its | aim has been accomplished, it is functionless. Yet in the learning |
| Tx:28.3 | an application. They await their use. They have no dedication and no | aim. |
| Tx:29.41 | that time might be preserved, excepting one. Forgiveness does not | aim at keeping time but at its ending when it has no use. Its purpose |
| Tx:30.57 | Fear is not its goal, and the escape from guilt becomes its | aim. The value of forgiveness is perceived and takes the place of |
| Tx:30.82 | purpose, changelessly established. And no situation can affect its | aim but must be in accord with it. For only if its aim could change |
| Tx:30.82 | can affect its aim but must be in accord with it. For only if its | aim could change with every situation could each one be open to |
| Tx:31.42 | and insane it is to think that there could be a road with such an | aim! Where could it go? And how could you be made to travel on it, |
| Tx:31.48 | for your accusing finger points to him, unwavering and deadly in its | aim. It points to you as well, but this is kept still deeper in the |
| Tx:31.50 | all learning which the world directs begun and ended with the single | aim of teaching you this concept of yourself, that you will choose to |

| W1:I.4 | things you see to which the idea for the day is inapplicable. The | aim of the exercises will always be to increase the application of |
| W1:4.3 | will be repeated from time to time in somewhat different form. The | aim here is to train you in the first steps toward the goal of |

| W1:105.5 | before. It adds by letting what cannot contain itself fulfill its | aim of giving everything it has away, securing it forever for itself. |
| W1:R3.2 | be sure that you catch up in terms of numbers. Rituals are not our | aim and would defeat our goal. |
| W1:126.11 | As often as you can, remind yourself you have a goal today—an | aim which makes this day of special value to yourself and all your |
| W1:135.18 | Defenses are the plans you undertake to make against the truth. Their | aim is to select what you approve and disregard what you consider |
| W1:136.2 | twist it, or reduce it to a little pile of unassembled parts. The | aim of all defenses is to keep the truth from being whole. The parts |
| W1:136.6 | this not for fact. Defenses must make facts unrecognizable. They | aim at doing this, and this they seem to do. Every defense takes |
| W1:136.15 | you will choose to practice giving welcome to the truth. This is our | aim today. And we will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the |
| W1:138.3 | as opposites. Decision lets one of conflicting goals become the | aim of effort and expenditure of time. Without decision, time is but |
| W1:139.13 | as we lay aside all thoughts that would distract us from our holy | aim. For several minutes let your mind be cleared of all the foolish |
| W1:R4.1 | to concentrate on readiness for what will follow next. Such is our | aim for this review and for the lessons following. Thus we review the |
| W1:193.14 | is. Morning and night, devote what time you can to serve its proper | aim, and do not let the time be less than meets your deepest need. |
| W1:205.1 | of God is everything I want. The peace of God is my one goal; the | aim of all my living here, the end I seek, my purpose and my function |
| W2:WF.2 | kept from reason. What can come between a fixed projection and the | aim that it has chosen as its needed goal? |
| W2:WIW.3 | And now they go to find what has been given them to seek. Their | aim is to fulfill the purpose which the world was made to witness and |
| W2:WIS.2 | can the goal of striving change. And now the body serves a different | aim for striving. What it seeks for now is chosen by the aim the mind |
| W2:WIS.2 | a different aim for striving. What it seeks for now is chosen by the | aim the mind has taken as replacement for the goal of self-deception. |
| W2:WIS.2 | as replacement for the goal of self-deception. Truth can be its | aim as well as lies. The senses then will seek instead for witnesses |
| W2:258.1 | are sought instead? God is our only goal, our only Love. We have no | aim but to remember Him. |
| W2:308.1 | I have conceived of time in such a way that I defeat my | aim. If I elect to reach past time to timelessness, I must change my |
| W2:318.1 | What could conflict when all the parts have but one purpose and one | aim? How could there be a single part that stands aside or one of |
| W2:319.2 | is total. And the goal that stems from it shares its totality. What | aim but the salvation of the world could You have given me? And what |
| W2:WAI.5 | is written on our hearts. And thus our minds are changed about the | aim for which we came and which we seek to serve. We bring glad |
| W2:FL.3 | all our thoughts to serve the function of salvation. Unto us the | aim is given to forgive the world. It is the goal that God has given |
| M:4.24 | no effort to exceed its legitimate goal. Forgiveness is its single | aim at which all learning ultimately converges. It is indeed enough. |
| M:10.3 | The | aim of our curriculum, unlike the goal of the world's learning, is |
| M:13.6 | hold dear the things that crucify God's Son. And it is the course's | aim to set him free. But do not be mistaken about what sacrifice |
| M:17.3 | have been the case if the result is anything but joy. The single | aim of the teacher turns the divided goal of the pupil into one |

| Tx:6.48 | badly in need of allies though not of brothers. Perceiving something | alien to itself in your mind, the ego turns to the body, not the |

| Tx:12.20 | for special favor. And God did not give it, for the request was | alien to Him, and you could not ask this of a Father Who truly loved |

| W1:12.2 | thing to another involves a fairly constant time interval. Do not | allow the time of the shift to become markedly longer or shorter, but |

| W1:74.12 | Do this as often as necessary. There is definite gain in refusing to | allow retreat into withdrawal, even if you do not experience the |
| W1:78.12 | God's salvation plan, and not our own. Temptation falls away when we | allow each one we meet to save us and refuse to hide his light behind |

| Tx:10.6 | To be | alone is to be separated from infinity, but how can this be if |
| Tx:10.9 | incomplete, and He is not childless. Because He did not will to be | alone, He created a Son like Himself. Do not deny Him His Son, for |
| Tx:10.10 | could keep it only by giving it, as it was given you. Could you be | alone there if it was given you because God did not will to be alone? |
| Tx:10.10 | be alone there if it was given you because God did not will to be | alone? God's Mind cannot be lessened. It can only be increased, and |

| Tx:10.24 | is friendless. Would God let this be real if He did not will to be | alone Himself? And if your will is His, it cannot be true of you |
| Tx:10.29 | with the dark companions beside you, but you also cannot enter | alone. |
| Tx:10.30 | to dwell in the temple with Him because it is your will not to be | alone. God blessed His Son forever. If you will bless him in time, |

| Tx:11.20 | crucifixion, not redemption. Trust in my help, for I did not walk | alone, and I will walk with you as our Father walked with me. Did you |

| Tx:12.35 | and no one hears their answer save him who called upon them, and he | alone believes they answered him. Projection makes perception, and |
| Tx:12.38 | with no one, and you are as isolated from reality as if you were | alone in all the universe. In your madness, you overlook reality |

| Tx:13.8 | will move in us, and we will leave no one untouched and no one left | alone. And suddenly time will be over, and we will all unite in the |
| Tx:13.27 | yet it is not now. The Son of God believes that he is lost in guilt, | alone in a dark world where pain is pressing everywhere upon him from |
| Tx:13.34 | Praise be unto you who make the Father one with His own Son. | Alone we are all lowly, but together we shine with brightness so |
| Tx:13.34 | but together we shine with brightness so intense that none of us | alone can even think on it. Before the glorious radiance of the |
| Tx:13.47 | have realized that they cannot be seen but in illusions, for there | alone their seeming clearness seems to be clearly seen. Let us now |
| Tx:13.65 | from what the other does not offer you. You do not want either | alone, for without both, you do not see yourselves as whole and |
| Tx:13.73 | is not true that you can make decisions by yourself or for yourself | alone. No thought of God's Son can be separate or isolated in its |
| Tx:13.74 | strain, or the impossible burden of deciding what they want and need | alone. |
| Tx:13.75 | the answer. Would you be content with little, which is all that you | alone can offer yourself, when He Who gives you everything will |
| Tx:13.77 | is capable of guiding you to follow it. Every decision you undertake | alone but signifies that you would define what salvation is and what |
| Tx:13.78 | for you is your will. Without His guidance, you will think you know | alone and will decide against your peace as surely as you made the |
| Tx:13.78 | made the wrong decision in ever thinking that salvation lay in you | alone. Salvation is of Him to Whom God gave it for you. He has not |
| Tx:13.81 | given equally to all alike! He leaves you no one outside yourself, | alone without you. And so He gives you what is yours because your |
| Tx:14.7 | them not what is their due, for you will not withhold it from them | alone. |
| Tx:14.12 | is its unifying attribute, with no one left outside to suffer guilt | alone. The power of God draws everyone to its safe embrace of love |
| Tx:14.30 | look with Him, He cannot see. The vision of Christ is not for Him | alone but for Him with you. Bring, therefore, all your dark and |
| Tx:14.31 | You cannot see | alone. Sharing perception with Him Whom God has given you teaches you |
| Tx:14.31 | you see. It is the recognition that nothing you see means anything | alone. Seeing with Him will show you that all meaning, including |
| Tx:14.54 | Separation therefore remains the ego's chosen condition. For no one | alone can judge the ego truly. Yet when two or more join together in |
| Tx:14.55 | It is impossible to remember God in secret and | alone. For remembering Him means you are not alone and willing to |
| Tx:14.55 | God in secret and alone. For remembering Him means you are not | alone and willing to remember it. Take no thought for yourself, for |
| Tx:14.68 | can run some little part or deal with certain aspects of your lives | alone that the guidance of the Holy Spirit is limited. Thus would you |
| Tx:14.72 | for peace and understanding go together and never can be found | alone. Each brings the other with it, for it is the law of God they |
| Tx:14.75 | as surely as it is His. You think you know Him not only because, | alone, it is impossible to know Him. Yet see the mighty works that He |
| Tx:15.13 | theirs. For the instant of holiness is shared, and cannot be yours | alone. Remember, then, when you are tempted to attack a brother, that |
| Tx:15.25 | to your magnitude and not your littleness. Nor is it asked of you | alone. |
| Tx:15.31 | Remember that you learn not for yourself | alone, no more than I did. It is because I learned for you that you |
| Tx:15.38 | It is not there. Use the holy instant only to recognize that you | alone cannot know where it is and can only deceive yourself. |
| Tx:15.41 | share and that salvation lies in keeping your thoughts to yourself | alone. For in private thoughts, known only to yourself, you think you |
| Tx:15.41 | to yourself, you think you find a way to keep what you would have | alone and share what you would share. And then you wonder why it is |
| Tx:15.46 | of guilt, and to appeal to it for salvation is to believe you are | alone. To be alone is to be guilty. For to experience yourself as |
| Tx:15.46 | and to appeal to it for salvation is to believe you are alone. To be | alone is to be guilty. For to experience yourself as alone is to deny |
| Tx:15.46 | alone. To be alone is to be guilty. For to experience yourself as | alone is to deny the oneness of the Father and his Son and thus to |
| Tx:15.48 | and change so frequently. They are not based on changeless love | alone. And love where fear has entered cannot be depended on because |
| Tx:15.60 | From this it follows you can only give. And this is love, for this | alone is natural under the laws of God. |
| Tx:15.75 | with you while you believe that to communicate is to make yourself | alone? It is clearly insane to believe that by communicating you will |
| Tx:15.80 | that God and His Son share and will to meet together. You are not | alone in this. The will of your creations calls to you to share your |
| Tx:15.84 | and yet He understands it because you have made it. In Him | alone lies the awareness of what God cannot know and what you do not |
| Tx:16.4 | I am not | alone, and I would not intrude the past upon my Guest. I have invited |
| Tx:16.13 | done miracles, but it is quite apparent that you have not done them | alone. You have succeeded whenever you have reached another mind and |
| Tx:16.20 | what you have really seen and heard and recognize it. Can you be | alone with witnesses like these? |
| Tx:16.26 | your faith in what you taught. For what you taught is true. | Alone you stand outside your teaching and apart from it. But with |
| Tx:16.44 | directed against God. For the ego would have you see Him, and Him | alone, as guilty, leaving the Sonship open to attack and unprotected |
| Tx:17.73 | in every situation. You are no longer wholly insane, nor no longer | alone. For loneliness in God must be a dream. You whose relationship |
| Tx:18.20 | guilt, but as a source of joy and freedom. It will not be for you | alone, for therein lay its misery. As its unholiness kept it a thing |
| Tx:18.27 | hand also hold mine, for when you joined each other you were not | alone. Do you believe that I would leave you in the darkness you |
| Tx:18.35 | The holy instant does not come from your little willingness | alone. It is always the result of your small willingness combined |
| Tx:18.36 | than simple willingness to make way for it. Purification is of God | alone and therefore for you. Rather than seek to prepare yourself for |
| Tx:18.42 | and rising even to Heaven. Nor will you use it to ascend to Heaven | alone. |
| Tx:18.46 | fact that it is now impossible for either of you to experience fear | alone or to attempt to deal with it alone. Never believe that this is |
| Tx:18.46 | either of you to experience fear alone or to attempt to deal with it | alone. Never believe that this is necessary or even possible. Yet |
| Tx:18.51 | possible. And it is mind that seems to be fragmented and private and | alone. Its guilt, which keeps it separate, is projected to the body, |
| Tx:18.73 | almost imperceptible ripple hails itself as the ocean. Think how | alone and frightened is this little thought, this infinitesimal |
| Tx:18.75 | body seems to house a separate mind, a disconnected thought living | alone and in no way joined to the Thought by which it was created. |
| Tx:18.79 | one into this holy place, but they will not depart as they had come, | alone. The love they brought with them will stay with them, as it |
| Tx:18.79 | who thirsts for living water but has grown too weary to go on | alone. |
| Tx:18.82 | be able to give love welcome separately. You could no more know God | alone than He knows you without your brother. But together you could |
| Tx:19.41 | you reinforce it now? You are not asked to let it go for yourselves | alone. Christ asks it of you for Himself. He would bring peace to |
| Tx:19.98 | illusions are not real. No one can stand before this obstacle | alone, for he could not have reached thus far unless his brother |
| Tx:19.102 | to forgive your sins, as you for him. Neither can give it to himself | alone. And yet your savior stands beside each one. Let him be what he |
| Tx:20.19 | through which you thread your timid way through constant dangers, | alone and frightened, hoping at most that death will wait a little |
| Tx:20.30 | own. For this you share. What God has given follows His laws and His | alone. Nor is it possible for those who follow them to suffer the |
| Tx:20.34 | Think not that your forgiveness of each other serves but you two | alone. For the whole new world rests in the hands of every two who |
| Tx:21.42 | Remember that the ego is not | alone. Its rule is tempered, and its unknown “enemy,” Whom it cannot |
| Tx:21.55 | Oh yes, you know this and more than this | alone. Yet any part of knowledge threatens dissociation as much as |
| Tx:21.59 | and yourself. For reason would not make way for correction in you | alone. |
| Tx:21.60 | And how could thoughts that enter into what but seems like yours | alone have no effect at all on what is yours? If minds are joined, |
| Tx:21.64 | is your release. Neither your brother nor yourself can be attacked | alone. But neither can accept a miracle instead without the other |
| Tx:21.68 | you of the thanks your Father gives you for completing Him. And here | alone does reason tell you that you can understand what you must be. |
| Tx:21.71 | themselves afraid of it? These are the dark ones, silent and afraid, | alone and not communicating, fearful the power of the Son of God will |
| Tx:22.2 | for sin gone with them. Who has need for sin? Only the lonely and | alone who see their brothers different from themselves. It is this |
| Tx:22.10 | the messages you have received and failed to understand, this course | alone is open to your understanding and can be understood. This is |
| Tx:22.12 | you, never to “something else.” Where Christ has entered, no one is | alone, for never could He find a home in separate ones. Yet must He |
| Tx:22.22 | Forsake not now each other. For you who are the same will not decide | alone nor differently. Either you give each other life or death; |
| Tx:22.40 | it together, for it is but a veil that stands between you. Either | alone will see it as a solid block, nor realize how thin the drapery |
| Tx:22.41 | to be together after such a long and lonely journey where you walked | alone. The gates of Heaven, open now for you, will you now open to |
| Tx:22.44 | it difficult. For by receiving it, he learned it was not given him | alone. Such is the function of a holy relationship—to receive |
| Tx:22.47 | in quiet, undefended and wholly undefending, for in this quiet state | alone is strength and power. Here can no weakness enter, for here is |
| Tx:22.50 | an illusion. And therefore feel that you are weak because you are | alone. This is the cost of all illusions. Not one but rests on the |
| Tx:22.54 | the power to heal all pain, regardless of its form. Neither of you | alone can serve at all. Only in your joint will does healing lie. For |
| Tx:22.65 | And in Him is all creation joined. Would you regret you cannot fear | alone when your relationship can also teach the power of love is |
| Tx:23.5 | time intrude upon your sight of him. Leave him not frightened and | alone in his temptation but help him rise above it and perceive the |
| Tx:23.40 | And are you sure the goal of Heaven can be reached? If not, you walk | alone. Ask, then, your Friend to join with you and give you certainty |
| Tx:24.8 | Specialness can never share, for it depends on goals that you | alone can reach. And he must never reach them, or your goal is |
| Tx:24.21 | of what He is unto Himself, not given to His Son but kept for Him | alone. And it is this you fear, for if He is not special, then He |
| Tx:24.24 | but your tiny self. Nothing is sacred here but unto you and you | alone, apart and separate from all your brothers, safe from all |
| Tx:24.27 | For you have given your brother's birthright to it, leaving him | alone and unforgiven and yourself in sin beside him, both in misery |
| Tx:24.34 | of trust in anyone except yourself. Faith is invested in yourself | alone. Everything else becomes your enemy—feared and attacked, |
| Tx:24.59 | is the function which you gave yourself. It stands for you | alone, as self-created, self-maintained, in need of nothing, and |
| Tx:24.63 | The memory of God shines not | alone. What is within your brother still contains all of creation, |
| Tx:25.20 | offered to everyone who shares His purpose. It is not His Will to be | alone. And neither is it yours. |
| Tx:25.27 | not. Everyone here has entered darkness, yet no one has entered it | alone. [Nor need he stay more than an instant.] For he has come with |
| Tx:25.37 | the cause and aim and justifier of the other. Each is meaningless | alone, but seems to draw a meaning from the other. Each depends upon |
| Tx:25.40 | you return to him what is his due that you may share in it with him. | Alone does neither have it. So must it remain useless to both. |
| Tx:25.40 | the role God gave to him. But think not Heaven is lost to him | alone. Nor can it be regained unless the way is shown to him through |
| Tx:25.41 | let yours be. And so you walk toward Heaven or toward hell, but not | alone. How beautiful his sinlessness will be when you perceive it! |
| Tx:25.46 | instead of harm. To each He gives a special function in salvation he | alone can fill—a part for only him. Nor is the plan complete until |
| Tx:25.62 | fulfilled. Salvation is His Will because you share it. Not for you | alone but for the Self which is the Son of God. He cannot lose, for |
| Tx:25.63 | —that you prefer He take it than that you keep it for yourself | alone and recognize that what brings loss to no one you would not |
| Tx:26.3 | sign that sacrifice is limited and something still remains for you | alone. And for this little to belong to you are limits placed on |
| Tx:26.31 | song, is difficult to do. But it is hard indeed to wander off, | alone and miserable, down a road which leads to nothing and which has |
| Tx:26.35 | an ancient memory before your eyes. And he who lives in memories | alone is unaware of where he is. |
| Tx:26.44 | to keep the ones which he prefers and find the safety that the truth | alone can give? Who can believe illusions are the same and still |

| W1:185.12 | what He wills for you? And how could your request be limited to you | alone? No gift of God can be unshared. It is this attribute that sets |
| W1:188.6 | quietly and close your eyes. The light within you is sufficient. It | alone has power to give the gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer |
| W1:190.5 | It is your thoughts | alone that cause you pain. Nothing external to your mind can hurt or |
| W1:190.10 | reality. Pain is but sleep; joy is awakening. Pain is deception; joy | alone is truth. |

| W1:195.6 | We thank our Father for one thing | alone—that we are separate from no living thing and therefore one |
| W1:198.13 | of earth, made quiet in a dreamless sleep. And now the Word of God | alone remains upon it. Only that can be perceived an instant longer. |
| W1:200.9 | can there be delay and needless wasted time on thorny byways. God | alone is sure, and He will guide our footsteps. He will not desert |
| W1:R6.1 | use the idea as often as you can between them. Each of these ideas | alone would be sufficient for salvation, if it were learned truly. |
| W2:I.1 | we do not now depend. For now we seek direct experience of truth | alone. The lessons which remain are merely introductions to the times |
| W2:221.1 | Father, I come to You today to seek the peace that You | alone can give. I come in silence. In the quiet of my heart, the deep |
| W2:228.2 | dreams. I let them go today. And I stand ready to receive Your Word | alone for what I really am. |
| W2:236.1 | Holy Spirit to employ as He sees fit. I thus direct my mind, which I | alone can rule. And thus I set it free to do the Will of God. |
| W2:WIW.4 | Follow His light and see the world as He beholds it. Hear His Voice | alone in all that speaks to you. And let Him give you peace and |
| W2:242.1 | I will not lead my life | alone today. I do not understand the world. And so to try to lead my |
| W2:242.1 | today. I do not understand the world. And so to try to lead my life | alone must be but foolishness. For there is One Who knows all that is |
| W2:265.1 | I to think that what I feared was in the world instead of in my mind | alone. Today I see the world in the celestial gentleness with which |
| W2:WIC.3 | Home of the Holy Spirit and at home in God | alone, does Christ remain at peace within the Heaven of your holy |
| W2:275.1 | For the Voice of God tells us of things we cannot understand | alone, nor learn apart. It is in this that all things are protected. |
| W2:280.2 | Today let me give honor to Your Son, for thus | alone I find the way to You. Father, I lay no limits on the Son You |
| W2:281.1 | I think with You can only bless. The thoughts I think with You | alone are true. |
| W2:296.2 | We teach today what we would learn and that | alone. And so our learning goal becomes an unconflicted one and |
| W2:298.1 | I accept instead what God establishes as mine, sure that in that | alone I will be saved, sure that I go through fear to meet my Love. |
| W2:307.1 | another will, for it is senseless and will cause me pain. Your will | alone can bring me happiness, and only Yours exists. If I would have |
| W2:WILJ.4 | the eternal peace He shares with him. Be not afraid of love. For it | alone can heal all sorrow, wipe away all tears, and gently waken from |
| W2:317.1 | I have a special place to fill—a role for me | alone. Salvation waits until I take this part as what I choose to do. |
| W2:321.1 | You is opening and clear to me at last. Father, my freedom is in You | alone. Father, it is my will that I return. |
| W2:321.2 | the world's salvation when we learn our freedom can be found in God | alone. |
| W2:325.2 | dreams. Let me behold what only Yours reflect, for Yours and Yours | alone establish truth. |
| W2:WIE.1 | weak and love is fearful, life is really death, and what opposes God | alone is true. |
| W2:333.2 | end our evil dreams. No light but this can save the world. For this | alone will never fail in anything, being Your gift to Your beloved |
| W2:335.1 | see because it stands for what I want to be the truth. It is to this | alone that I respond, however much I seem to be impelled by outside |
| W2:338.1 | thoughts can frighten him, but since these thoughts belong to him | alone, he has the power to change them and exchange each fear thought |
| W2:338.2 | You have given me the only Thought which leads me to salvation. Mine | alone will fail and lead me nowhere. But the Thought You gave me |
| W2:344.1 | what giving means and thought to save what I desired for myself | alone. And as I looked upon the treasure that I thought I had, I |
| W2:344.1 | my forgiven brothers fill my store with Heaven's treasures, which | alone are real. Thus is the law of love fulfilled. And thus Your Son |
| W2:345.1 | than any other gift which I can give. Then let me give this gift | alone today, which, born of true forgiveness, lights the way that I |
| W2:348.1 | Father, let me remember You are here, and I am not | alone. Surrounding me is everlasting Love. I have no cause for |
| W2:351.1 | if I see him sinful, I proclaim myself a sinner, not a Son of God, | alone and friendless in a fearful world. Yet this perception is a |
| W2:351.1 | clear. Choose, then, for me, my Father, through Your Voice. For He | alone gives judgment in Your Name. |
| W2:352.1 | Forgiveness looks on sinlessness | alone and judges not. Through this I come to You. Judgment will bind |
| W2:353.1 | best will serve the purpose that I share with Him. Nothing is mine | alone, for He and I have joined in purpose. Thus has learning come |
| W2:358.1 | You Who remember what I really am | alone remember what I really want. You speak for God, and so You |
| W2:E.1 | is a beginning, not an end. Your Friend goes with you. You are not | alone. No one who calls on Him can call in vain. Whatever troubles |
| W2:E.6 | behold him through His eyes and love him as He does. You do not walk | alone. God's angels hover close and all about. His Love surrounds |

| W1:106.11 | release a thousand more who pause to ask that truth be given them | along with you. |
| W1:109.7 | to bring the peace of God into the world that it might take its rest | along with you. |

| W1:132.7 | accept it, and each one must go as far as he can let himself be led | along the road to truth. He will return and go still farther, or |
| W1:132.15 | —no more than we. For we are in the home our Father set for us | along with them. And we who are as He created us would loose the |
| W1:132.18 | and let your mind in quietness be changed so that the world is freed | along with you. |
| W1:137.10 | whom you touch or those who seem to have no contact with you healed | along with you. Perhaps you will not recognize them all, nor realize |
| W1:139.8 | gain. What we accept as what we are proclaims what everyone must be | along with us. |
| W1:R4.9 | Five minutes with this thought will be enough to set the day | along the lines which God appointed and to place His Mind in charge |
| W1:155.11 | rather than the truth. And we step forth toward this as we progress | along the way that truth points out to us. This is our final journey, |
| W1:155.15 | I will step back and let Him lead the way, for I would walk | along the road to Him. |
| W1:157.3 | you will return to paths of learning. Yet you have come far enough | along the way to alter time sufficiently to rise above its laws and |
| W1:158.3 | set already. It appears to be quite arbitrary. Yet there is no step | along the road that anyone but takes by chance. It has already been |
| W1:R5.2 | it ours. Lead our practicing as does a father lead a little child | along a way he does not understand. Yet does he follow, sure that he |
| W1:R5.8 | will lead you out with him. God's Son is crucified until you walk | along the road with me. |

| W1:195.10 | for being what you are—His own completion and the source of love, | along with Him. Your gratitude to Him is one with His to you. For |
| W1:196.7 | to you. From there you can at least consider if you want to go | along this painful path. Until this shift has been accomplished, you |
| W1:199.8 | Your brothers stand released with you in it; the world is blessed | along with you; God's Son will weep no more, and Heaven offers thanks |
| W1:R6.6 | for this review. For we attempt this time to reach a quickened pace | along a shorter path to the serenity and peace of God. We merely |
| W1:208.1 | God is shining in me now. I will be still and let the earth be still | along with me. And in that stillness, we will find the peace of God. |
| W2:I.2 | Himself. And we are sure His promises are kept. We have come far | along the road, and now we wait for Him. We will continue spending |
| W2:225.1 | and only peace ahead. How still the way Your loving Son is led | along to You! |

| W2:286.2 | today will give us hope that we have found the way and traveled far | along it to a wholly certain goal. Today we will not doubt the end |

| Tx:3.47 | sense. This is not an active process of destruction at all. We have | already emphasized that knowledge does not do anything. It can be |
| Tx:3.56 | more than a request that we may be able to recognize something we | already have. In electing to perceive instead of to know, man placed |
| Tx:3.61 | We have | already discussed the Last Judgment in some though insufficient |
| Tx:3.72 | either a making or a creating, a difference which we have discussed | already. Their resemblance lies in their power as foundations. Their |
| Tx:4.40 | another ingenious way of trying to impose order on chaos. We have | already credited the ego with considerable ingenuity, though not with |
| Tx:4.51 | failed to answer this request because it asks only for what He has | already willed. Those who call truly are always answered. Thou shalt |
| Tx:4.54 | only when the idea of “getting,” which implies a lack, has | already been accepted. That is why we made no distinction before |
| Tx:4.87 | you and your ego cannot be identical. You may believe that you have | already accepted the difference, but you are by no means convinced as |
| Tx:5.32 | know your brother is by perceiving the Holy Spirit in him. We have | already said that the Holy Spirit is the bridge or thought-transfer |
| Tx:5.41 | The Holy Spirit is the perfect teacher. He uses only what your minds | already understand to teach you that you do not understand it. The |
| Tx:5.94 | I have | already told you that whenever you are not wholly joyous it is |
| Tx:5.95 | cannot be difficult. This is obvious if you realize that you must | already have made a decision not to be wholly joyous if that is how |
| Tx:6.3 | faithfully you have observed it. It was quite evident that you had | already developed the ability to follow a better model if you could |
| Tx:6.5 | I have | already told you that you can always call on me to share my decision |
| Tx:6.10 | but rebirth itself is merely the dawning on your minds of what is | already in them. God placed it there Himself, and so it is true |
| Tx:6.26 | against what you project, you continue to attack it because you have | already attacked it by projecting it. By doing this unconsciously, |
| Tx:6.57 | He teaches only to make you equal with Him. This is because you had | already taught wrongly, having believed what was not true. You did |
| Tx:6.87 | extent, this one calls for consistent effort against it. We said | already that you can be as vigilant against the ego as for it. This |
| Tx:6.91 | only with the center, where God placed the altar to Himself. We have | already said that altars are beliefs, but God and His creations are |
| Tx:6.95 | have and are. This recognition is wholly without effort since it is | already true and needs no protection. It is in the perfect safety of |
| Tx:7.1 | to God, since He created you, but you did not create Him. We have | already said that only in this respect your creative power differs |
| Tx:7.31 | an art, because it depends on inspiration in the sense that we have | already used the term. Inspiration is the opposite of dispiriting and |
| Tx:7.31 | not be real healing. You do, however, recognize the Spirit that is | already there and thereby reawaken it. This is why the healer is part |
| Tx:7.32 | over them at all. Science is nothing more than an approach to what | already is. Like inspiration it can be misunderstood as magic and |
| Tx:7.32 | as magic and will be whenever it is undertaken as separate from what | already is and perceived as a means for establishing it. To believe |
| Tx:7.41 | ego can hurt other bodies, but this cannot occur unless the body has | already been confused with the mind. This fact, too, can be used |
| Tx:7.60 | because conflict is meaningless, it cannot be understood. We have | already said that understanding brings appreciation, and appreciation |

| Tx:8.91 | the purpose of this course is to learn what you are and if you have | already decided that what you are is fearful, then it must follow |
| Tx:8.105 | Remember, then, that God's Will is | already possible and nothing else will ever be. This is the simple |
| Tx:8.109 | however, that it will be lost. There are many answers which you have | already received but have not yet heard. I assure you that they are |
| Tx:9.70 | To remember is merely to restore to your mind what is | already there. You do not make what you remember; you merely accept |
| Tx:10.22 | Know, then, who abides with you merely by recognizing what is there | already and do not be satisfied with imaginary comforters, for the |
| Tx:10.40 | learned by now that fear is not real. We have accepted the fact | already that its effects can be dispelled merely by denying their |
| Tx:10.50 | Spirit's teaching, only God's purpose is accomplishment, and it is | already accomplished. |

| Tx:10.79 | and you will have it, for you will see it as it is, and it is yours | already. |
| Tx:11.21 | fear in perfect love. We will but be making perfect to you what is | already perfect in you. You do not fear the unknown, but the known. |
| Tx:12.75 | In me you have | already overcome every temptation that would hold you back. We walk |
| Tx:13.55 | that you sought. Yet you will add another burden to your mind, | already burdened or you would not have sought another. You will |
| Tx:13.85 | Him teach you quietly how to perceive your guiltlessness, which is | already there. |
| Tx:13.88 | and therefore cannot be given. Ask not to be forgiven, for this has | already been accomplished. Ask, rather, to learn how to forgive and |
| Tx:14.57 | will teach you what you are, restoring to you your identity. We have | already learned that this identity is shared. The miracle becomes the |
| Tx:14.61 | did not abandon you. And so you have another lesson sent from Him, | already learned for every Child of light by Him to Whom God gave it. |
| Tx:14.69 | and recognized they never were. There are no dark lessons He has not | already lightened for you. The lessons you would teach yourselves He |
| Tx:14.69 | for you. The lessons you would teach yourselves He has corrected | already. They do not exist in His Mind at all. For the past binds Him |
| Tx:14.72 | They have destroyed their motivation for learning by thinking they | already know. Think not you understand anything until you pass the |
| Tx:15.88 | cannot give it. And seek it not through yours. Yet your minds are | already continuous, and their union need only be accepted, and the |
| Tx:15.102 | For He is Host to God. And you need but invite Him in Who is there | already, by recognizing that His Host is One, and no thought alien to |
| Tx:16.20 | ideas are mighty forces to be used and not held idly by. They have | already proved their power sufficiently for you to place your faith |
| Tx:16.25 | Your teaching has | already done this, for the Holy Spirit is part of you. Created by |
| Tx:16.71 | on it, for the past is gone. You cannot really not let go what has | already gone. It must be, therefore, that you are maintaining the |
| Tx:17.17 | the bodies of those who are not there. Even the body of the other, | already a severely limited perception of him, is not the central |
| Tx:17.42 | all relationships, for in it they are one. For here is only healing, | already complete and perfect. For here is God, and where He is, only |
| Tx:17.59 | the situation just seems to happen and makes no sense until it has | already happened. Then you look back at it and try to piece together |
| Tx:18.12 | within it. Would you still further weaken and break apart what is | already broken and hopeless? Is it here that you would look for |
| Tx:18.40 | centered on this. Everything God wills is not only possible but has | already happened. And that is why the past has gone. It never |
| Tx:18.41 | Prepare you not for the undoing of what never was. If you | already understood the difference between truth and illusion, the |
| Tx:19.12 | forgiveness. But through the eyes of faith, the Son of God is seen | already forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid upon himself. Faith |
| Tx:19.15 | peace, and so it calls on truth to enter and make lovely what has | already been prepared for loveliness. Truth follows faith and peace, |
| Tx:19.37 | from your relationship to others to bring them gently in [has | already begun. This is the way in which He will bring means and goal |
| Tx:19.38 | rest, as it was given you. All this will you do. Yet the peace which | already lies deeply within must first expand and flow across the |
| Tx:19.64 | place before our union, for in your holy relationship, I am there | already. We will surmount all obstacles together, for we stand within |
| Tx:19.67 | my way to you. Yet it is not possible to keep away One Who is there | already. And in Him it is possible that our communion, where we are |
| Tx:19.67 | And in Him it is possible that our communion, where we are joined | already, will be the focus of the new perception that will bring |
| Tx:19.69 | you wholly and give you peace. Yet it can unite only with what | already is at peace in you, immortal as itself. The body can bring |
| Tx:20.3 | He started with the sign of victory the promise of the resurrection | already given him. Let him not wander into the temptation of |
| Tx:20.28 | you are, the Holy Spirit merely gives everything to God, Who has | already given and received all that is true. The untrue He has |
| Tx:20.42 | of your relationship, with means and end in perfect harmony | already. Here is the perfect faith that you will one day offer to |
| Tx:20.42 | Here is the perfect faith that you will one day offer to each other | already offered you. And here the limitless forgiveness you will give |
| Tx:20.42 | you. And here the limitless forgiveness you will give each other | already given; the face of Christ you yet will look upon already seen. |
| Tx:20.42 | each other already given; the face of Christ you yet will look upon | already seen. |
| Tx:21.24 | We have | already said that wishful thinking is how the ego deals with what it |
| Tx:21.37 | for its recognition is at hand. Join your awareness to what has been | already joined. The faith you give each other can accomplish this. |
| Tx:21.43 | with what is part of you in truth. And your belief in sin has been | already shaken, nor are you now entirely unwilling to look within and |
| Tx:21.45 | your reason tells you, and it follows perfectly from what you have | already learned. |
| Tx:21.69 | to it. Where could his freedom lie but in himself if he be free | already? And who could bind him but himself if he deny his freedom? |
| Tx:21.76 | You have | already answered the first three questions but not yet the last. For |
| Tx:21.82 | final question “yes,” you add sincerity to the decisions you have | already made to all the rest. For only then have you renounced the |
| Tx:21.88 | and made by one whom God Himself will never fail to answer. God has | already given him all that he really wants. Yet what he is uncertain |
| Tx:21.90 | denial has denied revealed to you. For here the final question is | already answered and what you ask for given. Here is the future now, |
| Tx:24.1 | Him what to do. He will not fail. Where He can enter, there He is | already. And can it be He cannot enter where He wills to be? Peace |
| Tx:24.43 | upon decay and madness and believe this crumbling thing, with flesh | already loosened from the bone and sightless holes for eyes, is like |
| Tx:26.20 | that they are temporary, out of place, and every choice has been | already made. |
| Tx:26.67 | answer, for on Him you call. Could He refuse to answer when He has | already answered all who call on Him? A miracle can make no change at |
| Tx:26.72 | here and now. Yet only here and now its cause must be if its effects | already have been judged as fearful. And in overlooking this, is it |
| Tx:26.72 | and kept separate from healing. For a miracle is now. It stands | already here in present grace, within the only interval of time which |
| Tx:26.73 | wait till they unfold in time and fear they may not come, although | already there? You have been told that everything brings good that |
| Tx:26.75 | Yet this illusion has a cause which, though untrue, must be | already in your mind. And this illusion is but one effect which it |
| Tx:27.36 | must be a way in which your problems are resolved, for what He wills | already has been done. |
| Tx:27.37 | a way of reaching to another state of mind in which the answer is | already there. Such is the holy instant. It is here that all your |
| Tx:28.28 | accept a miracle, you do not add your dream of fear to one that is | already being dreamed. Without support, the dream will fade away |
| Tx:30.10 | But there will still be times when you have judged | already. Now the answer will provoke attack unless you quickly |
| Tx:30.14 | this rule without delay despite your opposition. For you have | already gotten angry, and your fear of being answered in a different |
| Tx:30.41 | of God. What idol can be called upon to give the Son of God what he | already has? |
| Tx:30.63 | When brothers join in purpose in the world of fear, they stand | already at the edge of the real world. Perhaps they still look back |
| Tx:30.93 | Because reality is changeless is a miracle | already there to heal all things that change and offer them to you to |

| W1:28.4 | You will not question what we have | already defined. And the purpose of these exercises is to ask |
| W1:39.2 | not need a workbook at all. No one needs practice to gain what is | already his. |
| W1:39.3 | We have | already said that your holiness is the salvation of the world. What |
| W1:45.11 | are trying to go. Yet even with the little understanding you have | already gained, you should be able to remind yourself that this is no |
| W1:46.11 | I cannot be guilty because I am a Son of God. I have | already been forgiven. No fear is possible in a mind beloved of God. |
| W1:R1.1 | series of review periods. Each of them will cover five of the ideas | already presented, starting with the first and ending with the |
| W1:R1.4 | situations which appear to be upsetting, rather than in those which | already seem to be calm and quiet. |
| W1:72.10 | it instead. And wherever His plan is accepted, it is accomplished | already. |
| W1:72.11 | periods today is to become aware that God's plan for salvation has | already been accomplished in us. To achieve this goal, we must |
| W1:78.6 | You know the one to choose; his name has crossed your mind | already. He will be the one of whom we ask God's Son be shown to us. |
| W1:79.1 | be solved if you do not know what it is. Even if it is really solved | already, you will still have the problem because you cannot recognize |
| W1:79.1 | The problem of separation, which is really the only problem, has | already been solved. But the solution is not recognized because the |
| W1:79.7 | problem is and what is the answer to it. We will not assume that we | already know. We will try to free our minds of all the many different |
| W1:88.2 | salvation rather than attack, I merely choose to recognize what is | already here. Salvation is a decision made already. Attack and |
| W1:88.2 | to recognize what is already here. Salvation is a decision made | already. Attack and grievances are not there to choose. That is why I |
| W1:90.5 | is impossible that I could have a problem which has not been solved | already. |
| W1:90.7 | need not wait for this to be resolved. The answer to this problem is | already given me if I will accept it. Time cannot separate this |
| W1:95.1 | must be so, only because you believe that you have changed yourself | already. You see yourself as a ridiculous parody on God's creation— |
| W1:95.8 | may well be a temptation to regard the day as lost because you have | already failed to do what is required. This should, however, merely |
| W1:104.8 | the way for Him today by simply recognizing that His Will is done | already and that joy and peace belong to us as His eternal gifts. We |
| W1:105.5 | timelessness, and love unto itself. It adds to all that is complete | already, not in simple terms of adding more, for that implies that it |
| W1:109.11 | our rest is made complete, and what we give today we have received | already. Time is not the guardian of what we give today. We give to |

| W1:186.13 | complete; a gift to you, although He knows that you have everything | already. He has thoughts which answer every need His Son perceives, |

| Tx:6.79 | then, is a step in the direction out of conflict since it means that | alternatives have been considered and one has been chosen as more |
| Tx:13.68 | is yours. What you can decide between is fixed because there are no | alternatives except truth and illusion. And there is no overlap |
| Tx:15.96 | You see no other | alternatives, for you cannot accept the fact that sacrifice gets |
| Tx:15.100 | to choose between total freedom and total bondage, for there are no | alternatives but these. You have tried many compromises in the |
| Tx:22.16 | ego, to which truth is meaningless, do they appear to be the only | alternatives and different from each other. In truth they are the |
| Tx:22.63 | what you understand, you seem to be and therefore can attack. Of the | alternatives, this seems more natural and more in line with your |
| Tx:26.23 | of choice made real, not in the outcome but in the perception of | alternatives for choice. That there is choice is an illusion. Yet |
| Tx:28.48 | fear has gone, there love must come because there are but these | alternatives. Where one appears, the other disappears. And which you |

| Tx:31.40 | is a choice which you have power to make when you have seen the real | alternatives. Until that point is reached, you have no choice, and |
| Tx:31.54 | There are | alternatives about the thing that you must be. You might for instance |
| Tx:31.54 | did the choosing first? If you are what you chose your brother be, | alternatives were there to choose among, and someone must have first |
| Tx:31.73 | you to bring you peace that you may offer peace to have it yours. | Alternatives are in your mind to use, and you can see yourself |
| Tx:31.81 | to choose against? Consider what temptation is, and see the real | alternatives you choose between. There are but two. Be not deceived |
| Tx:31.91 | was made. For in that choice are false distinctions gone, illusory | alternatives laid by, and nothing left to interfere with truth. |
| W1:133.4 | laws which govern choice you cannot make, no more than you can make | alternatives from which to choose. The choosing you can do; indeed |
| W1:133.4 | is wise to learn the laws you set in motion when you choose and what | alternatives you choose between. We have already stressed there are |
| W1:133.5 | and this we cannot change. It would be most ungenerous to you to let | alternatives be limitless and thus delay your final choice until you |
| W1:133.12 | choice, you have allowed the ego's goals to come between the real | alternatives, and thus you do not realize there are but two. And the |
| W1:134.10 | Thus will you see | alternatives for choice in terms which render choosing meaningful and |

| W1:52.2 | [6] I | am upset because I see what is not there. Reality is never |
| W1:52.2 | that it could upset me. Reality brings only perfect peace. When I | am upset, it is always because I have replaced reality with illusions |

| W1:53.3 | [12] I | am upset because I see a meaningless world. Insane thoughts are |
| W1:53.3 | and chaos has no laws. I cannot live in peace in such a world. I | am grateful that this world is not real and that I need not see it at |

| W1:55.5 | interests would merely bind me closer to the world of illusions. I | am willing to follow the Guide God has given me to find out what my |
| W1:56.2 | thoughts are attacking my invulnerability. How can I know who I | am when I see myself as under constant attack? Pain, illness, loss, |
| W1:56.3 | I want to see. Recognizing that what I see reflects what I think I | am, I realize that vision is my greatest need. The world I see |
| W1:56.3 | nature of the self-image I have made. If I would remember who I | am, it is essential that I let this image of myself go. As it is |
| W1:56.6 | that all is one forever. I have not lost the knowledge of who I | am because I have forgotten it. It has been kept for me in the Mind |
| W1:56.6 | for me in the Mind of God, Who has not left His thoughts. And I, who | am among them, am one with them and one with Him. |

| W1:57.2 | [31] I | am not the victim of the world I see. How can I be the victim of a |
| W1:57.3 | prison in which I see myself. All I need do is recognize this, and I | am free. I have deluded myself into believing it is possible to |
| W1:57.6 | [35] My mind is part of God's. I | am very holy. As I share the peace of the world with my brothers, I |
| W1:58.5 | have accepted my holiness, nothing can make me afraid. And because I | am unafraid, everyone must share in my understanding, which is the |
| W1:58.6 | [40] I | am blessed as a Son of God. Herein lies my claim to all good and only |
| W1:58.6 | as a Son of God. Herein lies my claim to all good and only good. I | am blessed as a Son of God. All good things are mine because God |
| W1:58.6 | me. I cannot suffer any loss or deprivation or pain because of who I | am. My Father supports me, protects me, and directs me in all things. |
| W1:58.6 | in all things. His care for me is infinite and is with me forever. I | am eternally blessed as His Son. |
| W1:59.2 | me through Him? Let me not cherish illusions about myself. I | am perfect because God goes with me wherever I go. |
| W1:59.5 | see. I cannot see in darkness. God is the only Light. Therefore if I | am to see, it must be through Him. I have tried to define what seeing |
| W1:60.3 | which I forgive. It is through the strength of God in me, which I | am remembering as I forgive. As I begin to see, I recognize His |
| W1:60.5 | fails to direct my thoughts, guide my actions, and lead my feet. I | am walking steadily on toward truth. There is nowhere else I can go, |
| W1:60.6 | [50] I | am sustained by the Love of God. As I listen to God's Voice, I am |
| W1:60.6 | [50] I am sustained by the Love of God. As I listen to God's Voice, I | am sustained by His Love. As I open my eyes, His love lights up the |

| W1:68.10 | holds no grievances. When I let all my grievances go, I will know I | am perfectly safe. |
| W1:74.6 | I | am at peace. Nothing can disturb me. My will is God's My will and |
| W1:76.13 | I | am under no laws but God's. |

| W1:81.2 | let all my conflicts disappear. In its peace, let me remember who I | am. |
| W1:83.2 | it means I cannot have conflicting goals. With one purpose only, I | am always certain what to do, what to say, and what to think. All |
| W1:84.2 | [67] Love created me like Itself. I | am in the likeness of my Creator. I cannot suffer, I cannot |
| W1:84.2 | I cannot suffer, I cannot experience loss, and I cannot die. I | am not a body. I would recognize my reality today. I will worship no |
| W1:84.2 | no idols nor raise my own self-concepts to replace my Self. I | am in the likeness of my Creator. Love created me like Itself. |
| W1:84.5 | attack love and keep its light obscure. If I hold grievances I | am attacking love and therefore attacking my Self. My Self thus |
| W1:84.5 | and therefore attacking my Self. My Self thus becomes alien to me. I | am determined not to attack my Self today, so that I can remember who |
| W1:84.5 | determined not to attack my Self today, so that I can remember who I | am. |
| W1:86.5 | will not work. Yet only His plan will work. By holding grievances, I | am therefore excluding my only hope of salvation from my awareness. I |
| W1:86.7 | I | am choosing between misperception and salvation as I look on this. If |
| W1:87.5 | [74] There is no will but God's. I | am safe today because there is no will but God's. I can become afraid |
| W1:87.5 | I believe that there is another will. I try to attack only when I | am afraid, and only when I try to attack can I believe that my |
| W1:87.5 | threatened. Today I will recognize that all this has not occurred. I | am safe because there is no will but God's. |
| W1:88.5 | [76] I | am under no laws but God's. Here is the perfect statement of my |
| W1:88.5 | no laws but God's. Here is the perfect statement of my freedom. I | am under no laws but God's. I am constantly tempted to make up other |
| W1:88.5 | the perfect statement of my freedom. I am under no laws but God's. I | am constantly tempted to make up other laws and give them power over |
| W1:88.5 | of my belief in them. They have no real effect on me at all. I | am perfectly free of the effects of all laws save God's. And His are |
| W1:89.2 | [77] I | am entitled to miracles. I am entitled to miracles because I am under |

| W1:89.2 | [77] I am entitled to miracles. I am entitled to miracles because I | am under no laws but God's. His laws release me from all grievances |
| W1:89.4 | Behind this is a miracle to which I | am entitled. Let me not hold a grievance against you [name], but |
| W1:90.5 | my problems have been solved. I seem to have problems only because I | am misusing time. I believe that the problem comes first, and time |

| W1:95.21 | united with our Creator in this Self. I honor you because of what I | am, and what He is, Who loves us both as one. |
| W1:97.9 | Spirit | am I, a holy Son of God, free of all limits, safe and healed and |
| W1:106.13 | Let me be still and listen to the truth. I | am the messenger of God today. My voice is His, to give what I |
| W1:108.9 | To give and to receive are one in truth. I will receive what I | am giving now. |

| W1:112.2 | and peace. I welcome them into the home I share with God, because I | am a part of Him. |
| W1:112.3 | [94] I | am as God created me. I will remain forever as I was, Created by the |
| W1:112.3 | forever as I was, Created by the Changeless like Himself. And I | am one with Him, and He with me. |
| W1:112.7 | I | am as God created me. |
| W1:113.2 | [95] I | am One Self, united with my Creator. Serenity and perfect peace are |
| W1:113.2 | with my Creator. Serenity and perfect peace are mine because I | am One Self, completely whole, at one with all creation and with God. |
| W1:113.5 | I | am One Self, united with my Creator. |
| W1:114.2 | [97] I | am Spirit. I am the Son of God. No body can contain my spirit nor |

| W1:121.14 | the dream that I am mortal, fallible, and full of sin and know I | am the perfect Son of God. |

| W2:I.6 | I | am so close to you we cannot fail. Father, we give these holy times |
| W2:221.2 | Now do we wait in quiet. God is here because we wait together. I | am sure that He will speak to you, and you will hear. Accept my |
| W2:222.1 | of life, the life within, the air I breathe, the food by which I | am sustained, the water which renews and cleanses me. He is my home, |
| W2:224.2 | still is known to You. I have forgotten it and do not know where I | am going, who I am, or what it is I do. Remind me, Father, now, for I |
| W2:224.2 | to You. I have forgotten it and do not know where I am going, who I | am, or what it is I do. Remind me, Father, now, for I am weary of the |
| W2:224.2 | going, who I am, or what it is I do. Remind me, Father, now, for I | am weary of the world I see. Reveal what You would have me see |
| W2:227.1 | Father, it is today that I | am free because my will is Yours. I thought to make another will. Yet |
| W2:227.1 | will. Yet nothing that I thought apart from You exists. And I | am free because I was mistaken and did not affect my own reality at |
| W2:228.1 | true what He proclaims as false? Or shall I take His Word for what I | am since He is my Creator and the One Who knows the true condition of |
| W2:228.2 | enter in a body and to die. My holiness remains a part of me, as I | am part of You. And my mistakes about myself are dreams. I let them |
| W2:228.2 | And I stand ready to receive Your Word alone for what I really | am. |
| W2:229.1 | and find it in these words: “Love, Which created me, is what I | am.” Now need I seek no more. Love has prevailed. So still it waited |
| W2:229.2 | Father, my thanks to You for what I | am; for keeping my Identity untouched and sinless in the midst of all |
| W2:230.1 | He created me He gave me peace forever. Now I ask but to be what I | am. And can this be denied me, when it is forever so? |
| W2:230.2 | which Your Son was born into Your Mind is shining there unchanged. I | am as You created me. I need but call on You to find the peace You |
| W2:232.1 | sleep sure of my safety, certain of Your care, and happily aware I | am Your Son. |
| W2:235.1 | His Son and keeps his sinlessness forever perfect to be sure that I | am saved and safe forever in His arms. I am the Son He loves. And I |
| W2:235.1 | perfect to be sure that I am saved and safe forever in His arms. I | am the Son He loves. And I am saved because God in His mercy wills it |
| W2:235.1 | am saved and safe forever in His arms. I am the Son He loves. And I | am saved because God in His mercy wills it so. |
| W2:236.1 | I have a kingdom I must rule. At times, it does not seem I | am its king at all. It seems to triumph over me and tell me what to |
| W2:238.1 | has been so great I must be worthy. You created me and know me as I | am. And yet You placed Your Son's salvation in my hands and let it |
| W2:243.1 | are all that I can see. Today I recognize that this is so. And so I | am relieved of judgment which I cannot make. Thus do I free myself |
| W2:243.2 | leave creation free to be itself. I honor all its parts, in which I | am included. We are one because each part contains Your memory, and |
| W2:247.1 | me. Let me accept what His sight shows me as the simple truth and I | am healed completely. Brother, come and let me look on you. Your |
| W2:248.1 | self-concepts and deceits and lies about the holy Son of God. Now | am I ready to accept him back as God created him, and as he is. |
| W2:248.2 | for You returns and lets me love Your Son again as well. Father, I | am as You created me. Now is Your Love remembered and my own. Now do |
| W2:250.2 | I would behold his gentleness instead of my illusions. He is what I | am, and as I see him, so I see myself. Today I would see truly that |
| W2:252.2 | Father, You know my true Identity. Reveal it now to me who | am Your Son, that I may waken to the truth in You and know that |
| W2:253.1 | occur is what I do not want to happen. This must I accept. For thus | am I led past this world to my creations, children of my Will, in |
| W2:255.1 | Son is like Himself. Let me this day have faith in Him Who says I | am God's Son. And let the peace I choose be mine today bear witness |
| W2:257.1 | If I forget my goal, I can be but confused, unsure of what I | am and thus conflicted in my actions. No one can serve contradicting |
| W2:261.1 | I perceive my strength and think I live within the citadel where I | am safe and cannot be attacked. Let me today seek not security in |
| W2:261.1 | is everlasting peace. And only there will I remember who I really | am. |
| W2:267.1 | heartbeat brings me peace; each breath infuses me with strength. I | am a messenger of God, directed by His Voice, sustained by Him in |
| W2:267.1 | His Name, and every one is answered by His Voice, assuring me I | am at home in Him. |
| W2:271.1 | Each day, each hour, every instant, I | am choosing what I want to look upon, the sounds I want to hear, the |
| W2:272.1 | satisfy Your Son? I will accept no less than You have given me. I | am surrounded by Your Love, forever still, forever gentle, and |
| W2:274.1 | the love of brother to his brother and his friend. Through this I | am redeemed. Through this as well the truth will enter where |
| W2:276.2 | to all my brothers, who are given me to cherish as my own, as I | am loved and blessed and saved by You. |
| W2:278.1 | If I accept that I | am prisoner within a body in a world in which all things that seem to |
| W2:278.1 | and the sins which I perceive are real and cannot be escaped. If I | am bound in any way, I do not know my Father or my Self. And I am |
| W2:278.1 | If I am bound in any way, I do not know my Father or my Self. And I | am lost to all reality. For truth is free, and what is bound is not a |
| W2:281.1 | created him. Your Thoughts can only bring me happiness. If ever I | am sad or hurt or ill, I have forgotten what You think and put my |
| W2:281.2 | I will not hurt myself today. For I | am far beyond all pain. My Father placed me safe in Heaven, watching |
| W2:283.1 | was, for Your creation is unchangeable. Let me not worship idols. I | am He my Father loves. His holiness remains the light of Heaven and |
| W2:288.1 | on the way to You. His sins are in the past along with mine. And I | am saved because the past is gone. Let me not cherish it within my |
| W2:289.1 | past is over in my mind, the real world must escape my sight. For I | am really looking nowhere, seeing but what is not there. How can I |
| W2:289.2 | left untouched and free of sin. Here is the end of guilt. And here | am I made ready for Your final step. Shall I demand that You wait |
| W2:290.2 | fail to hear me, Father. What I ask have You already given me, and I | am sure that I will see my happiness today. |
| W2:294.1 | I | am a Son of God. And can I be another thing as well? Did God create |
| W2:295.1 | seemed to settle on the world are gone. Redemption must be one. As I | am saved, the world is saved with me. For all of us must be redeemed |
| W2:296.1 | the world may listen to Your Voice and hear Your Word through me. I | am resolved to let You speak through me, for I would use no words but |
| W2:298.1 | My gratitude permits my love to be accepted without fear. And thus | am I restored to my reality at last. All that intruded on my holy |
| W2:298.2 | any way but Yours. You are beside me. Certain is Your way. And I | am grateful for Your holy gifts of certain sanctuary and escape from |
| W2:301.1 | Father, unless I judge I cannot weep. Nor can I suffer pain or feel I | am abandoned and unneeded in the world. This is my home because I |
| W2:303.1 | Son is born. Let earthly sounds be quiet and the sights to which I | am accustomed disappear. Let Christ be welcomed where He is at home, |
| W2:303.2 | made. He is the Self that You have given me. He is but what I really | am in truth. He is the Son You love above all things. He is my Self |
| W2:306.1 | all fear and be restored to love and holiness and peace. Today I | am redeemed and born anew into a world of mercy and of care; of |
| W2:308.2 | Thanks for this instant, Father. It is now I | am redeemed. This instant is the time You have appointed for Your |
| W2:WILJ.5 | changeless and forever pure. Therefore awaken and return to Me. I | am your Father and you are My Son.” |
| W2:315.1 | Each day a thousand treasures come to me with every passing moment. I | am blessed with gifts throughout the day, in value far beyond all |
| W2:316.1 | added. Let me come to where my treasures are and enter in where I | am truly welcome and at home among the gifts that God has given me. |
| W2:317.1 | I take this part as what I choose to do. Until I make this choice, I | am the slave of time and human destiny. But when I willingly and |
| W2:318.1 | that stands aside or one of more or less importance than the rest? I | am the means by which God's Son is saved because salvation's purpose |
| W2:318.1 | which God has placed in me. I was created as the thing I seek. I | am the goal the world is searching for. I am God's Son, His one |

| W2:318.1 | the world is searching for. I am God's Son, His one Eternal Love. I | am salvation's means and end as well. |
| W2:320.1 | and lays before it all the strength and love in earth and Heaven. I | am he to whom all this is given. I am he in whom the power of my |
| W2:320.1 | and love in earth and Heaven. I am he to whom all this is given. I | am he in whom the power of my Father's Will abides. |
| W2:324.1 | One Who gave the plan for my salvation to me. You have set the way I | am to go, the role to take, and every step in my appointed path. I |
| W2:326.1 | was created in Your Mind, a holy thought that never left its home. I | am forever Your Effect, and You forever and forever are my Cause. As |
| W2:326.1 | that Cause and Its Effect are indistinguishable. Let me know that I | am an Effect of God, and so I have the power to create like You. And |
| W2:327.1 | I | am not asked to take salvation on the basis of an unsupported faith. |
| W2:328.2 | There is no will but Yours. And I | am glad that nothing I imagine contradicts what You would have me be. |
| W2:329.1 | and interposed a second will more powerful than Yours. Yet what I | am in truth is but Your Will, extended and extending. This am I. And |
| W2:329.1 | what I am in truth is but Your Will, extended and extending. This | am I. And this will never change. As You are One, so am I one with |

| W2:337.1 | me from harm, to understand my Father loves His Son, to know I | am the Son my Father loves. |
| W2:337.2 | You who created me in sinlessness are not mistaken about what I | am. I was mistaken when I thought I sinned, but I accept Atonement |
| W2:340.1 | Father, I thank You for today and for the freedom I | am certain it will bring. This day is holy, for today Your Son will |

| Tx:11.8 | if you want it in truth, it will be truly yours. Every appeal you | answer in the name of Christ brings the remembrance of your Father |
| Tx:11.8 | your need, then, hear every call for help as what it is, so God can | answer you. |
| Tx:11.15 | to remember God. For you forgot your brothers with Him, and God's | answer to your forgetting is but the way to remember. |
| Tx:11.16 | for your Father wills you to know your brother as yourself. | Answer his call for love and yours is answered. Healing is the love |
| Tx:11.28 | about the “what” and the “how” of salvation, and this is the only | answer. Never lose sight of this, and never allow yourself to believe |
| Tx:11.28 | allow yourself to believe even for an instant that there is another | answer. For you will surely place yourself among the poor, who do not |
| Tx:11.72 | and I have answered it, but you will not look upon me nor hear the | answer which you sought. That is because you do not yet want only |
| Tx:11.80 | in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot lose it. A Voice will | answer every question you ask, and a Vision will correct the |
| Tx:11.80 | invisible is the only truth, and what you have not heard is the only | answer. God would reunite you with yourself and did not abandon you |
| Tx:12.12 | cloud that obscures it, your love for your Father would impel you to | answer His call and leap into Heaven. You believe that attack is |
| Tx:12.22 | given you creation, He could not take it from you. He could but | answer your insane request with a sane answer which would abide with |
| Tx:12.22 | it from you. He could but answer your insane request with a sane | answer which would abide with you in your insanity. [And this He did. |
| Tx:12.22 | with you in your insanity. [And this He did. No one who hears His | answer but will give up insanity.] For His answer is the reference |
| Tx:12.22 | did. No one who hears His answer but will give up insanity.] For His | answer is the reference point beyond illusions from which you can |
| Tx:12.35 | do they communicate with those who are not there, and it is they who | answer them, and no one hears their answer save him who called upon |
| Tx:12.35 | not there, and it is they who answer them, and no one hears their | answer save him who called upon them, and he alone believes they |
| Tx:12.39 | of Him. Yet He would release you from it and set you free. His sane | answer tells you that what you have offered yourself is not true, but |
| Tx:12.53 | rise to your Creator, He will return your thanks in His clear | answer to your call. For it can never be that His Son called upon Him |
| Tx:12.68 | can you find yourself in such a world? Without the Holy Spirit, the | answer would be no. Yet because of Him, the answer is a joyous yes! |
| Tx:12.68 | the Holy Spirit, the answer would be no. Yet because of Him, the | answer is a joyous yes! As Mediator between the two worlds, He knows |
| Tx:13.40 | and what to seek. When you have learned this, you will find the | answer that makes the need for any differences disappear. Truth comes |
| Tx:13.75 | for yourself. You are not bereft of help, and Help that knows the | answer. Would you be content with little, which is all that you alone |
| Tx:13.75 | gift of God. Ask it not therefore of yourselves. Instead, accept His | answer, for He knows that you are worthy of everything God wills for |
| Tx:13.80 | Spirit makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and teach His | answer to everyone who struggles in the dark. For you decide for them |
| Tx:13.81 | Him. In everything be led by Him and do not reconsider. Trust Him to | answer quickly, surely, and with love for everyone who will be |
| Tx:14.4 | the knowledge of what you are with God. And only the Holy Spirit can | answer God for you, for only He knows what God is. Everything else |
| Tx:14.8 | it away and keep it from his sight. Bring innocence to light in | answer to the call of the Atonement. Never allow purity to remain |
| Tx:14.51 | can be asked to do that which requires no judgment of your own. The | answer is very simple. The power of God, and not of you, engenders |
| Tx:14.55 | Father, let the Holy Spirit order your thoughts and give only the | answer with which He answers you. Everyone seeks for love as you do |
| Tx:14.68 | that you would accept, you are unable to depend on miracles to | answer all your problems for you. |
| Tx:15.26 | you every time you make a decision. For every decision you make does | answer this and invites sorrow or joy accordingly. |
| Tx:15.34 | for Heaven and greatness. Forget not that his call is yours, and | answer him with me. God's power is forever on the side of His host, |
| Tx:15.42 | to let everything that interferes with it go forever?” If the | answer is no, then the Holy Spirit's readiness to give it to you is |
| Tx:15.59 | love, your call remains as strong. Nor do you think that, by God's | answer to him, your hope of answer is diminished. On the contrary, |
| Tx:15.59 | strong. Nor do you think that, by God's answer to him, your hope of | answer is diminished. On the contrary, you are far more inclined to |
| Tx:15.98 | only question is who is to be destroyed, you or another? You seek to | answer this question in your special relationships, in which you are |
| Tx:15.100 | and see it outside yourself. In you are both the question and the | answer—the demand for sacrifice and the peace of God. |
| Tx:16.25 | He is both God and you, as you are God and Him together. For God's | answer to the separation added more to you than you tried to take |
| Tx:16.40 | help which rises ceaselessly from you to your Creator. Would He not | answer you whose completion is His? He loves you wholly without |
| Tx:16.41 | truth together, and then together we go straight to God in joyous | answer to His call for His completion. |
| Tx:16.42 | you across lifts you from time into eternity. Waken from time and | answer fearlessly the call of Him Who gave eternity to you in your |
| Tx:17.29 | that when truth calls to you, as it does constantly, you | answer with a substitute. Every special relationship which you have |
| Tx:17.29 | the call of truth. In a sense the special relationship was the ego's | answer to the creation of the Holy Spirit, Who was God's answer to |
| Tx:17.29 | the ego's answer to the creation of the Holy Spirit, Who was God's | answer to the separation. For although the ego did not understand |
| Tx:17.49 | Him Who answered you. He heard. Has He not been very explicit in His | answer? You are not now wholly insane. Can you deny that He has given |
| Tx:17.74 | of faithlessness, withheld and left unused, that faith might | answer to the call of truth. The holy instant is the shining example, |
| Tx:17.76 | faith to truth is enormous and far greater than you realize. But to | answer truth with faith entails no strain at all. |
| Tx:18.32 | instant is the result of your determination to be holy. It is the | answer. The desire and the willingness to let it come precedes its |
| Tx:18.36 | You merely ask the question. The | answer is given. Seek not to answer it, but merely receive the answer |
| Tx:18.36 | You merely ask the question. The answer is given. Seek not to | answer it, but merely receive the answer as it is given. In preparing |
| Tx:18.36 | The answer is given. Seek not to answer it, but merely receive the | answer as it is given. In preparing for the holy instant, do not |
| Tx:18.62 | placed upon love and joined it where it is and where it led you in | answer to its gentle call to be at peace. |
| Tx:18.81 | Love's | answer is inevitable. It will come because you came without the body |
| Tx:19.38 | will not wait to give him this, for you will call to him and he will | answer you, recognizing in your call the Call of God. And you will |
| Tx:19.66 | world the joyous message of the end of guilt, and all the world will | answer. Think of your happiness as everyone offers you witness of the |
| Tx:19.82 | be corrected. For God has answered this insane idea with His own, an | Answer which left Him not and therefore brings the Creator to the |
| Tx:19.82 | brings the Creator to the awareness of every mind which heard His | Answer and accepted it. |
| Tx:19.84 | seen as safety, the great dark savior from the light of truth, the | answer to the Answer, the silencer of the Voice that speaks for God. |
| Tx:19.84 | the great dark savior from the light of truth, the answer to the | Answer, the silencer of the Voice that speaks for God. Yet the |
| Tx:19.84 | God. Yet the retreat to death is not the end of conflict. Only God's | Answer is its end. The obstacle of your seeming love for death that |
| Tx:20.19 | A simple question yet remains and needs an | answer. Do you like what you have made—a world of murder and attack |
| Tx:20.21 | over all perception answered. Take not the judgment of the world as | answer to the question, “What am I?” |
| Tx:20.23 | that does not know. Yet it is he you asked, and it is to his | answer that you would adjust. This one wild thought, fierce in its |
| Tx:20.24 | totally bereft of judgment? And if you have, would you believe the | answer and adjust to it as if it were the truth? The world you look |
| Tx:20.24 | adjust to it as if it were the truth? The world you look on is the | answer that it gave you, and you have given it power to adjust the |
| Tx:20.24 | you, and you have given it power to adjust the world to make its | answer true. You asked this puff of madness for the meaning of your |
| Tx:20.24 | of your unholy relationship and adjusted it according to its insane | answer. How happy did it make you? Did you meet with joy to bless the |
| Tx:21.52 | obvious, simple, and remains unasked. But think not reason could not | answer it. |
| Tx:21.53 | Its alien nature to the ego is proof you will not find the | answer there. Yet if it must be so, it must exist. And if it exists |
| Tx:21.54 | to ask why you are unaware of what is so, for this must have an | answer if the plan of God for your salvation is complete. And it must |
| Tx:21.54 | because its Source knows not of incompletion. Where would the | answer be but in the Source? And where are you but there, where this |
| Tx:21.54 | be but in the Source? And where are you but there, where this same | answer is? Your Identity, as much a true effect of this same Source |
| Tx:21.54 | Your Identity, as much a true effect of this same Source as is the | answer, must therefore be together and the same. |
| Tx:21.78 | Consider carefully your | answer to the last question you have left unanswered still. And let |
| Tx:21.83 | so often, if they had? Until the last decision has been made, the | answer is both “yes” and “no.” For you have answered “yes” without |
| Tx:21.88 | an asking for, and made by one whom God Himself will never fail to | answer. God has already given him all that he really wants. Yet what |
| Tx:21.89 | carefully why it should be you have not yet decided how you would | answer the final question. Your answer to the others has made it |
| Tx:21.89 | have not yet decided how you would answer the final question. Your | answer to the others has made it possible to help you be but |
| Tx:24.15 | the truth of what you really are, how can you know the truth? What | answer that the Holy Spirit gives can reach you, when it is your |
| Tx:24.15 | specialness to which you listen and which asks and answers? Its tiny | answer, soundless in the melody which pours from God to you eternally |
| Tx:24.38 | wish that you might see your brother sinless. To specialness the | answer must be “no.” A sinless brother is its enemy, while sin, if it |
| Tx:24.67 | The test of everything on earth is simply this: “What is it for?” The | answer makes it what it is for you. It has no meaning of itself, yet |
| Tx:25.39 | God has given him that you might hear in him His Call to you and | answer by returning unto God what is His own. |
| Tx:25.66 | You who know not of justice still can ask and learn the | answer. Justice looks on all in the same way. It is not just that one |
| Tx:25.78 | Are you willing to be released from all effects of sin? You cannot | answer this until you see all that the answer must entail. For if you |
| Tx:25.78 | effects of sin? You cannot answer this until you see all that the | answer must entail. For if you answer “yes,” it means you will forgo |
| Tx:25.78 | this until you see all that the answer must entail. For if you | answer “yes,” it means you will forgo all values of this world in |
| Tx:25.80 | Be certain any | answer to a problem the Holy Spirit solves will always be one in |
| Tx:25.80 | And this must be true because He asks no sacrifice of anyone. An | answer which demands the slightest loss to anyone has not resolved |
| Tx:26.32 | instant time was gone, for that was all it ever was. What God gave | Answer to is answered and is gone. |
| Tx:26.34 | Only in the past—an ancient past, too short to make a world in | answer to creation—did this world appear to rise. So very long ago, |
| Tx:26.41 | illusion was denied in but the time it took for God to give His | answer to illusion for all time and every circumstance. And then it |
| Tx:26.49 | is not true of anything that is apart from it. Yet has God given | answer to the world of sickness which applies to all its forms. God's |
| Tx:26.49 | to the world of sickness which applies to all its forms. God's | answer is eternal, though it operates in time where it is needed. Yet |
| Tx:26.50 | God's | answer lies where the belief in sin must be, for only there can its |
| Tx:26.51 | in any way, and all must yield with equal ease to what God gave as | answer to them all. God's Will is One. And any wish that seems to go |
| Tx:26.56 | to this world which death and desolation seem to rule. In joyous | answer will creation rise within you to replace the world you see |
| Tx:26.62 | form they took. In every miracle all healing lies, for God gave | answer to them all as one. And what is one to Him must be the same. |
| Tx:26.64 | not needed where there is no pain or suffering. Forgiveness is the | answer to attack of any kind. So is attack deprived of its effects, |
| Tx:26.65 | arrogant to be as He created you or to make use of what He gave to | answer all His Son's mistakes and set him free. But it is arrogant to |
| Tx:26.65 | gift of God to you is limitless. There is no circumstance it cannot | answer and no problem which is not resolved within its gracious light. |
| Tx:26.67 | everyone, as theirs to you. Call on your brother's name and God will | answer, for on Him you call. Could He refuse to answer when He has |
| Tx:26.67 | name and God will answer, for on Him you call. Could He refuse to | answer when He has already answered all who call on Him? A miracle |
| Tx:27.36 | and is every problem quietly resolved. In conflict there can be no | answer and no resolution, for its purpose is to make no resolution |
| Tx:27.36 | for its purpose is to make no resolution possible and to ensure no | answer will be plain. A problem set in conflict has no answer, for it |
| Tx:27.36 | to ensure no answer will be plain. A problem set in conflict has no | answer, for it is seen in different ways. And what would be an answer |
| Tx:27.36 | no answer, for it is seen in different ways. And what would be an | answer from one point of view is not an answer in another light. You |
| Tx:27.36 | ways. And what would be an answer from one point of view is not an | answer in another light. You are in conflict. Thus it must be clear |
| Tx:27.36 | another light. You are in conflict. Thus it must be clear you cannot | answer anything at all, for conflict has no limited effects. Yet if |
| Tx:27.36 | at all, for conflict has no limited effects. Yet if God gave an | answer, there must be a way in which your problems are resolved, for |
| Tx:27.37 | given you a way of reaching to another state of mind in which the | answer is already there. Such is the holy instant. It is here that |
| Tx:27.37 | should be brought and left. Here they belong, for here their | answer is. [And where its answer is, a problem must be simple and be |
| Tx:27.37 | and left. Here they belong, for here their answer is. [And where its | answer is, a problem must be simple and be easily resolved.] It must |
| Tx:27.37 | It must be pointless to attempt to solve a problem where the | answer cannot be. Yet just as surely it must be resolved if it is |
| Tx:27.37 | Yet just as surely it must be resolved if it is brought to where the | answer is. |
| Tx:27.38 | and resolved. Outside there will be no solution, for there is no | answer there that could be found. Nowhere outside a single simple |
| Tx:27.38 | asked. A question asked in hate cannot be answered, because it is an | answer in itself. A double question asks and answers, both attesting |
| Tx:27.40 | A pseudo-question has no | answer. It dictates the answer even as it asks. Thus is all |
| Tx:27.40 | A pseudo-question has no answer. It dictates the | answer even as it asks. Thus is all questioning within the world a |
| Tx:27.41 | state is free to ask this question, for he does not want an honest | answer where the conflict ends. Only within the holy instant can an |
| Tx:27.41 | And from the meaning of the question does the meaningfulness of the | answer come. Here is it possible to separate your wishes from the |
| Tx:27.41 | answer come. Here is it possible to separate your wishes from the | answer, so it can be given you and also be received. The answer is |
| Tx:27.41 | from the answer, so it can be given you and also be received. The | answer is provided everywhere. Yet it is only here it can be heard. |
| Tx:27.42 | An honest | answer asks no sacrifice because it answers questions truly asked. |
| Tx:27.42 | asking not if sacrifice is meaningful at all. And so unless the | answer tells “of whom,” it will remain unrecognized, unheard, and |
| Tx:27.42 | and thus the question is preserved intact because it gave the | answer to itself. The holy instant is the interval in which the mind |
| Tx:27.42 | instant is the interval in which the mind is still enough to hear an | answer which is not entailed within the question asked. It offers |
| Tx:27.43 | Therefore, attempt to solve no problems in a world from which the | answer has been barred. But bring the problem to the only place which |
| Tx:27.43 | been barred. But bring the problem to the only place which holds the | answer lovingly for you. Here are the answers which will solve your |
| Tx:27.43 | unanswered. In the holy instant, you can bring the question to the | answer and receive the answer that was made for you. |
| Tx:27.43 | instant, you can bring the question to the answer and receive the | answer that was made for you. |
| Tx:27.52 | from the rest. Yet they are solved together. And their common | answer shows the questions could not have been separate. |
| Tx:27.55 | seems different because it has a different name, and so it seems to | answer to a different sound. Except for this, the witnesses of sin |
| Tx:27.87 | that brings you pain. Whatever hurt you bring to Him He will make | answer with this very simple truth. For this one answer takes away |
| Tx:27.87 | to Him He will make answer with this very simple truth. For this one | answer takes away the cause of every form of sorrow and of pain. The |
| Tx:27.87 | the cause of every form of sorrow and of pain. The form affects His | answer not at all, for He would teach you but the single cause of all |
| Tx:29.43 | there. Each idol that you worship when God calls will never | answer in His place. There is no other answer you can substitute and |
| Tx:29.43 | when God calls will never answer in His place. There is no other | answer you can substitute and find the happiness His answer brings. |
| Tx:29.43 | is no other answer you can substitute and find the happiness His | answer brings. Seek not outside yourself. For all your pain comes |
| Tx:30.5 | set the rules for how you should react to them. And then another | answer cannot but produce confusion and uncertainty and fear. |
| Tx:30.10 | But there will still be times when you have judged already. Now the | answer will provoke attack unless you quickly straighten out your |
| Tx:30.10 | attack unless you quickly straighten out your mind to want an | answer that will work. Be certain this has happened if you feel |
| Tx:30.10 | if you feel yourself unwilling to sit by and ask to have the | answer given you. This means you have decided by yourself and cannot |
| Tx:30.11 | that you have asked a question by yourself and must have set an | answer in your terms. Then say, |
| Tx:30.13 | This cancels out the terms which you have set and lets the | answer show you what the question must have really been. |
| Tx:30.14 | until you believe the day you want is one in which you get your | answer to your question. And you will not get it, for it would |
| Tx:30.27 | Thus you now can ask a question that makes sense, and so the | answer will make sense as well. Nor will you fight against it, for |
| Tx:30.34 | that you would never lose your will when He gave you His perfect | answer. Hear it now that you may be reminded of His love and learn |
| Tx:30.41 | and this is given you by being His. God knows not form. He cannot | answer you in terms which have no meaning. And your will could not be |
| Tx:30.70 | in a way which is not justified, your pardon will become the | answer to attack that has been made. And thus is pardon |
| Tx:30.91 | obscure and give to them reality instead. And Heaven gives no | answer to the prayer, nor can a miracle be given you to heal |
| Tx:31.9 | it be whole and that you do not leave its call unheard. Without your | answer is it left to die, as it is saved from death when you have |
| Tx:31.10 | hate, each call to war. Yet you will recognize Him as you give Him | answer in the language that He calls. He will appear when you have |
| Tx:31.11 | And all the world will give you joy and peace. For as you hear, you | answer. And behold! Your answer is the proof of what you learned. Its |
| Tx:31.11 | you joy and peace. For as you hear, you answer. And behold! Your | answer is the proof of what you learned. Its outcome is the world you |
| Tx:31.17 | and are lost. But hear the other, and you join with him, and in your | answer is salvation found. The voice you hear in him is but your own. |
| Tx:31.18 | Before you | answer, pause to think of this: |
| Tx:31.19 | The | answer that I give my brother is what I am asking for. And what I |
| Tx:31.21 | your equal in God's love, you will be saved from all appearances and | answer to the Christ Who calls to you. Be still and listen. Think not |
| Tx:31.21 | tenderness, seeing no leaders and no followers and hearing but one | answer to them all. Because He hears one Voice, He cannot hear a |
| Tx:31.21 | to them all. Because He hears one Voice, He cannot hear a different | answer from the one He gave when God appointed Him His only Son. |
| Tx:31.24 | It takes perhaps a different form in him, but it is not the form you | answer to. He asks and you receive, for you have come with but one |
| Tx:31.27 | attack them everywhere, except you hate yourself? Are you a sin? You | answer “yes” whenever you attack, for by attack do you assert that |
| Tx:31.36 | starts but do not yet perceive what it is for? Its purpose is the | answer to the search that all must undertake who still believe there |
| Tx:31.36 | search that all must undertake who still believe there is another | answer to be found. Learn now, without despair, there is no hope of |
| Tx:31.36 | answer to be found. Learn now, without despair, there is no hope of | answer in the world. But do not judge the lesson which is but begun |
| Tx:31.56 | of the world. And everyone believes that he must find the | answer to the riddle of himself. Salvation can be seen as nothing |
| Tx:31.56 | and what it is. And vaguely does the concept of the self appear to | answer what it does not know. |
| Tx:31.80 | it merely asks, “What is the meaning of what I behold?” Then is the | answer given. And the door held open for the face of Christ to shine |
| W1:22.7 | The | answer is surely obvious. |
| W1:27.7 | will you remember? How much do you want today's idea to be true? | Answer one of these questions, and you have answered the other. You |
| W1:39.4 | Your holiness is the | answer to every question that was ever asked, is being asked now, or |
| W1:47.9 | Repeat the idea for today often. Use it as your | answer to any disturbance. Remember that peace is your right because |
| W1:50.1 | Here is the | answer to every problem that confronts you today and tomorrow and |
| W1:50.3 | within you, eternal, changeless and forever unfailing. This is the | answer to whatever confronts you today. Through the Love of God in |
| W1:61.4 | think about this idea as often as possible today. It is the perfect | answer to all illusions and therefore to all temptation. It brings |
| W1:65.2 | you have closed upon yourself, in your own hands. It gives you the | answer to all the searching you have done since time began. |
| W1:69.8 | He has heard you and has answered you. You may not recognize His | answer yet, but you can indeed be sure that it is given you, and you |
| W1:71.7 | How can you escape all this? Very simply. The idea for today is the | answer. Only God's plan for salvation will work. There can be no real |
| W1:71.8 | this certainty today. And let us rejoice that there is an | answer to what seems to be a conflict with no resolution possible. |
| W1:71.12 | what needs to be done by you in His plan for your salvation. He will | answer you in proportion to your willingness to hear His Voice. |
| W1:71.12 | to listen. This is enough to establish your claim to God's | answer. |
| W1:72.13 | Then we will wait in quiet for His | answer. |
| W1:72.15 | to find it. We are asking it of truth. Be certain, then, that the | answer will be true because of Whom you ask. Whenever you feel your |
| W1:72.17 | He will | answer. Be determined to hear. |
| W1:72.20 | so in silence, preferably with your eyes closed, and listen for His | answer. |
| W1:77.6 | and uncertainty today. We are asking a real question at last. The | answer is a simple statement of a simple fact. You will receive the |
| W1:77.10 | Remember, too, not to be satisfied with less than the perfect | answer. Be quick to tell yourself, should you be tempted: |
| W1:79.2 | if he thinks the problem is something else? Even if he is given the | answer, he cannot see its relevance. |
| W1:79.3 | That is the position in which you find yourselves now. You have the | answer, but you are still uncertain about what the problem is. A long |
| W1:79.4 | you with a vast number of problems, each requiring a different | answer. This perception places you in a position in which your |
| W1:79.6 | is separation, no matter what form it takes, you could accept the | answer because you would see its relevance. Perceiving the underlying |
| W1:79.7 | periods today, we will ask what the problem is and what is the | answer to it. We will not assume that we already know. We will try to |
| W1:79.7 | we have failed to recognize. We will ask what it is and wait for the | answer. We will be told. Then we will ask for the solution to it. And |
| W1:79.8 | problems are. We are trying to recognize that we have been given the | answer by recognizing the problem so that the problem and the answer |
| W1:79.8 | the answer by recognizing the problem so that the problem and the | answer can be brought together and we can be at peace. |
| W1:79.9 | by need. You will see many problems today, each one calling for an | answer. Our efforts will be directed toward recognizing that there is |
| W1:79.9 | directed toward recognizing that there is only one problem and one | answer. In this recognition are all problems resolved. In this |
| W1:80.2 | only problem, opening the way for the Holy Spirit to give you God's | answer. You have laid deception aside and seen the light of truth. |
| W1:80.2 | have accepted salvation for yourself by bringing the problem to the | answer. And you can recognize the answer because the problem has been |

| W1:80.4 | we will claim the peace that must be ours when the problem and the | answer have been brought together. The problem must be gone because |
| W1:80.4 | have been brought together. The problem must be gone because God's | answer cannot fail. Having recognized one, you have recognized the |
| W1:80.4 | is inherent in the problem. You are answered and have accepted the | answer. You are saved. |

| W1:90.5 | That is because I do not yet realize that God has placed the | answer together with the problem, so that they cannot be separated by |
| W1:90.7 | I need not wait for this to be resolved. The | answer to this problem is already given me if I will accept it. Time |
| W1:98.4 | still. While those as yet unborn will hear the call we heard and | answer it, when they have come to make their choice again. We do not |
| W1:98.11 | up the way to happiness, and peace and trust will be His gifts, His | answer to your words. He will respond with all His faith and joy and |
| W1:99.7 | Now are you entrusted with this plan, along with Him. He has one | answer to appearances regardless of their form, their size, their |
| W1:100.11 | periods. It is your Self Who calls to you today. And it is Him you | answer every time you tell yourself you are essential to God's plan |
| W1:106.10 | Ask and expect an | answer. Your request is one whose answer has been waiting long to be |
| W1:106.10 | Ask and expect an answer. Your request is one whose | answer has been waiting long to be received by you. It will begin the |
| W1:109.1 | to look on danger and on sorrow. And we have the thought that will | answer our asking with what we request. |
| W1:121.1 | Here is the | answer to your search for peace. Here is the key to meaning in a |
| W1:122.4 | hold more hope than what forgiveness brings? Why would you seek an | answer other than the answer that will answer everything? Here is the |
| W1:122.4 | what forgiveness brings? Why would you seek an answer other than the | answer that will answer everything? Here is the perfect answer, given |
| W1:122.4 | brings? Why would you seek an answer other than the answer that will | answer everything? Here is the perfect answer, given to imperfect |
| W1:122.4 | than the answer that will answer everything? Here is the perfect | answer, given to imperfect questions, meaningless requests, |
| W1:122.5 | Here is the | answer! Seek for it no more. You will not find another one instead. |
| W1:122.6 | Here is the | answer! Would you stand outside while all of Heaven waits for you |
| W1:122.6 | of God. Let us today rejoice that this is so, for here we have an | answer, clear and plain, beyond deceit in its simplicity. All the |
| W1:122.7 | Here is the | answer! Do not turn away in aimless wandering again. Accept salvation |
| W1:122.9 | it today, aware we hold the key within our hands, accepting Heaven's | answer to the hell we made, but where we would remain no more. |
| W1:122.11 | sure rewards of questions answered, and what your acceptance of the | answer brings. Today it will be given you to feel the peace |
| W1:127.8 | Call to your Father, certain that His Voice will | answer. He Himself has promised this. And He Himself will place a |
| W1:133.17 | or believe you see some difficult decisions facing you, be quick to | answer with this simple thought: |
| W1:135.25 | question which remains unanswered yet in need of answering until the | Answer comes to you at last. |
| W1:139.3 | is the doubter? What is it he doubts? Whom does he question? Who can | answer him? He merely states that he is not himself and therefore, |
| W1:139.4 | Yet he could never be alive at all unless he knew the | answer. If he asks as if he did not know, it merely shows he does not |
| W1:139.5 | of you that asks this question, for it asks of one who knows the | answer. Were it part of you, certainty would be impossible. |
| W1:140.14 | for healing hourly and take a minute as the hour strikes to hear the | answer to our prayer be given us as we attend in silence and in joy. |
| W1:152.15 | it with this same invitation to your Self. God's Voice will | answer, for He speaks for you and for your Father. He will substitute |
| W1:161.1 | in the simple words in which we practice today's idea. Here is the | answer to temptation which can never fail to welcome in the Christ |
| W1:161.1 | the world passed safely by, and Heaven now restored. Here is the | answer of the Voice of God. |
| W1:161.15 | And He will | answer Whom you called upon, for He will hear the Voice of God in you |
| W1:161.15 | Whom you called upon, for He will hear the Voice of God in you and | answer in your own. Behold him now whom you had seen as merely flesh |
| W1:162.1 | advance. These words are sacred, for they are the words God gave in | answer to the world you made. By them it disappears, and all things |
| W1:162.2 | trumpet of awakening that sounds around the world. The dead awake in | answer to its call. And those who live and hear this sound will never |
| W1:164.2 | and more distinct—an ancient call to which He gives an ancient | answer. You will recognize them both. For they are but your answer to |
| W1:164.2 | ancient answer. You will recognize them both. For they are but your | answer to your Father's call to you. Christ answers for you, echoing |
| W1:166.10 | Will. There was a need He did not understand, to which He gave an | Answer. That is all. And you who have this Answer given you have need |
| W1:166.10 | to which He gave an Answer. That is all. And you who have this | Answer given you have need no more of anything but this. |
| W1:168.2 | be forever satisfied; despair of any kind unthinkable. His grace His | answer is to all despair, for in it lies remembrance of His Love. |
| W1:168.3 | the cobwebs of our sleep. His gift of grace is more than just an | answer. It restores all memories the sleeping mind forgot; all |
| W1:R5.10 | I brought to you from Him Who sees your bitter need and knows the | answer God has given Him. Together we review these thoughts. Together |
| W1:183.8 | give an invitation which can never be refused. And God will come and | answer it Himself. Think not He hears the little prayers of those who |
| W1:183.12 | Son of God who calls upon his Father. And his Father's Voice gives | answer in his Father's holy Name. In this eternal, still |
| W1:184.12 | our purpose is to let our minds accept what He has given as the | answer to the pitiful inheritance you made as fitting tribute to the |
| W1:185.11 | for what he has already? Who could be unanswered who requests an | answer which is his to give? The peace of God is yours. |
| W1:186.13 | He knows that you have everything already. He has thoughts which | answer every need His Son perceives, although He sees them not. For |
| W1:193.3 | He could not see nor understand by giving of His Love and making | Answer to a question which, though meaningless, His Son had asked of |
| W1:193.18 | To all that speaks of terror, | answer thus: |
| W1:198.2 | Illusion makes illusion. Except one. Forgiveness is illusion that is | answer to the rest. |
| W1:198.5 | Is it not wiser to be glad you hold the | answer to your problems in your hand? Is it not more intelligent to |
| W1:200.8 | perception to the gate of Heaven and the way beyond. Peace is the | answer to conflicting goals, to senseless journeys, frantic, vain |
| W2:221.1 | in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will hear my call and | answer me. |
| W2:221.2 | Our minds are joined. We wait with one intent—to hear our Father's | answer to our call, to let our thoughts be still and find His peace, |
| W2:232.1 | remained with me and always will be there to hear my call to You and | answer me. As evening comes, let all my thoughts be still of You and |
| W2:267.2 | Let me attend Your | Answer, not my own. Father, my heart is beating in the peace the |
| W2:WIC.2 | mind is part of His and His of yours. He is the part in which God's | Answer lies, where all decisions are already made and dreams are |
| W2:321.2 | Today we | answer for the world, which will be freed along with us. How glad are |
| W2:327.1 | an unsupported faith. For God has promised He will hear my call and | answer me Himself. Let me but learn from my experience that this is |
| W2:356.1 | Father, You promised You would never fail to | answer any call Your Son might make to You. It does not matter where |
| W2:356.1 | nor what he believes he has become. He is Your Son, and You will | answer him. The miracle reflects Your Love, and thus it answers him. |
| W2:356.1 | of sin, and who is sinless cannot suffer pain. Your Name gives | answer to Your Son because to call Your Name is but to call his own. |
| W2:FL.6 | Voice of His own Teacher. Would He hurt His Son? Or would He rush to | answer him and say, “This is My Son, and all I have is his”? Be |
| W2:FL.6 | and say, “This is My Son, and all I have is his”? Be certain He will | answer thus, for these are His own Words to you. And more than that |
| W2:361.1 | receive of Him. He is in charge by my request. And He will hear and | answer me because He speaks for God, my Father, and His holy Son. |
| W2:E.1 | can call in vain. Whatever troubles you, be certain that He has the | answer and will gladly give it to you if you simply turn to Him and |
| M:I.5 | salvation and the salvation of the world? This manual attempts to | answer these questions. |

| Tx:7.73 | You are not there, and that is not you. Do not see this picture in | anyone, or you have accepted it as you. All illusions about the |

| Tx:2.19 | This is the proper use of denial. It is not used to hide | anything but to correct error. It brings all error into the light, |
| Tx:2.19 | The “right mind” of the mentally healthy depends on it. You can do | anything I ask. I have asked you to perform miracles and have made it |
| Tx:2.75 | only at the level where creation is possible. The term does not mean | anything at the symptom level, where it cannot work. The correction |

| Tx:3.30 | you must get your perceptions straightened out before you can know | anything. To know is to be certain. Uncertainty merely means that you |

| Tx:3.51 | was introduced only after the separation. No one has been sure of | anything since. You will also remember, however, that I made it clear |
| Tx:3.52 | When you make something, you make it out of a sense of lack or need. | Anything that is made is made for a specific purpose and has no true |
| Tx:3.52 | fill a perceived lack, which is obviously why you would want to make | anything, you are tacitly implying that you believe in separation. |
| Tx:3.53 | so profound that it has become literally impossible for you to know | anything. Knowledge is always stable, and it is quite evident that |
| Tx:3.55 | when method and content are separated, it has not been utilized for | anything but an attempt to escape a fundamental and entirely |
| Tx:4.28 | thought system must be perceived as painful, even though this is | anything but true. Babies scream in rage if you take away a knife or |
| Tx:4.30 | obvious when you consider the concepts involved. To the ego, to give | anything implies that you will do without it. When you associate |
| Tx:4.35 | for this lapse, even though in reality it could not possibly know | anything about it. |
| Tx:4.39 | are many theologians. Data from one realm of discourse do not mean | anything in another, because they can be understood only within the |
| Tx:4.40 | effort, even in its most ingenious forms. We do not have to explain | anything. This is why we need not trouble ourselves with |
| Tx:4.41 | it as if something outside is inside, and this does not mean | anything. The word “within” is unnecessary. The Kingdom of Heaven is |
| Tx:4.50 | to get.” There is a kind of experience which is so different from | anything the ego can offer that you will never recover. The word |
| Tx:4.64 | of God into everything you think and will and do. Do not settle for | anything less than this, and refuse to accept anything but this as |
| Tx:4.64 | do. Do not settle for anything less than this, and refuse to accept | anything but this as your goal. Watch your minds carefully for any |
| Tx:4.74 | not last. The ego thinks it is an advantage not to commit itself to | anything that is eternal because the eternal must come from God. |
| Tx:4.96 | way to everything it knows is true and does not respond at all to | anything else. Nor does it make any attempt to establish what is |
| Tx:4.103 | ego. The “team” approach generally leads more to confusion than to | anything else because it is too often misused as a way of exerting |
| Tx:5.14 | it could ever believe for one instant that sharing it involves | anything but gain. |
| Tx:5.37 | the only time.” The literal nature of this statement does not mean | anything to the ego, which interprets it at best to mean “don't worry |
| Tx:5.46 | of fear. This does not mean that you can safely fail to acknowledge | anything that is true. However, the Holy Spirit will not fail to help |
| Tx:5.53 | means that you cannot be hurt and do not want to show your brother | anything except your wholeness. Show him that he cannot hurt you and |
| Tx:5.60 | to disruption because it is whole. Guilt is always disruptive. | Anything that engenders fear is divisive because it obeys the law of |
| Tx:5.64 | of illness, because it cannot conceive of attacking anyone or | anything. |
| Tx:5.66 | and every second, and each moment of decision is a judgment which is | anything but ineffectual. Its effects will follow automatically until |
| Tx:6.7 | can even destroy it. Yet if destruction itself is impossible, then | anything that is destructible cannot be real. Therefore, its |
| Tx:6.19 | it and always for the same reason that makes anyone misunderstand | anything. Their own imperfect love made them vulnerable to |
| Tx:6.30 | it now or ever. It is forever true. It is not a belief but a fact. | Anything that God create[s] is as true as He is. Its truth lies only |
| Tx:6.53 | must be developed, or you cannot use them. This is not true of | anything that God created, but it is the kindest solution possible to |
| Tx:6.66 | communicates only what each one can give to all. He never takes | anything back, because He wants you to keep it. Therefore, His |
| Tx:6.88 | As long as you must be vigilant against | anything, however, you are not recognizing this mutual exclusiveness |
| Tx:7.19 | position by how much it is not there. Actually, this does not mean | anything. It is like negative numbers in that the concept can be used |
| Tx:7.20 | former, because if the latter were true, the subject would not do | anything. Given variable motivation, he will do something, but you |
| Tx:7.28 | they cannot compete. Yet if they perceive any of their brothers as | anything other than their perfect equals, the idea of competition has |
| Tx:7.44 | He is therefore in conflict and teaching conflict. Can | anything of God not be for all and for always? |
| Tx:7.57 | you will not know your own safety. The ego cannot afford to know | anything. Knowledge is total, and the ego does not believe in |
| Tx:7.59 | itself from you who are mind, it is willing to attach itself to | anything else. But there is nothing else. It does not follow that the |
| Tx:7.61 | in mind what the Holy Spirit offers you, you cannot be vigilant for | anything but God and His Kingdom. The only reason you find this |
| Tx:7.69 | your will because it is God's, and nothing that opposes this means | anything at all. Being a perfect accomplishment, the Sonship can only |
| Tx:7.78 | a means of depriving you of something you want. Yet you cannot lose | anything unless you did not value it and therefore did not want it. |
| Tx:7.80 | You are the Will of God. Do not accept | anything else as your will, or you are denying what you are. Deny |
| Tx:7.85 | to keep part of it and get rid of another part does not really mean | anything. Remember that a conflicted teacher is a poor teacher and a |
| Tx:7.102 | as powerful as His because it is His. The ego's wishes do not mean | anything, because the ego wishes for the impossible. You can wish for |
| Tx:7.105 | way out of the fallacy is to decide that you do not have to decide | anything. Everything has been given you by God's decision. That is |
| Tx:7.108 | environment that is worthy of him, because his own worth is beyond | anything he can make. |
| Tx:8.8 | it. The ego is expert only in confusion. It does not understand | anything else. As a teacher, then, it is totally confused and totally |
| Tx:8.9 | for choosing a teacher such as this? Does the total disregard of | anything it teaches make anything but sense? Is this the teacher to |
| Tx:8.9 | such as this? Does the total disregard of anything it teaches make | anything but sense? Is this the teacher to whom a Son of God should |
| Tx:8.9 | to find himself? The ego has never given you a sensible answer to | anything. Simply on the grounds of your own experience with the ego's |
| Tx:8.10 | The ego cannot teach you | anything as long as your will is free, because you will not listen to |
| Tx:8.22 | its own goal. The ego does not know this, because it does not know | anything. But you can know this, and you will know it if you are |
| Tx:8.42 | welcome us as I am welcoming you. Forget not the Kingdom of God for | anything the world has to offer. The world can add nothing to the |
| Tx:8.43 | His Kingdom, it has no power. No one created by God can find joy in | anything except the eternal. That is not because he is deprived of |
| Tx:8.43 | anything except the eternal. That is not because he is deprived of | anything else, but because nothing else is worthy of him. What God |
| Tx:8.46 | How, then, can you accept | anything else or give anything else and expect joy in return? And |
| Tx:8.46 | How, then, can you accept anything else or give | anything else and expect joy in return? And what else but joy would |
| Tx:8.48 | An “unwilling will” does not mean | anything, [because it is] a contradiction in terms which actually |
| Tx:8.50 | yourselves as valuable. Given this belief, you cannot understand | anything. I share with God the knowledge of the value He puts upon |
| Tx:8.55 | does not see the body as you do, because He knows the only reality | anything can have is the service it can render God on behalf of the |
| Tx:8.56 | Spirit to use on behalf of union of the Sonship, you will not see | anything physical except as what it is. Use it for truth, and you |
| Tx:8.56 | it, because you have already done so by misusing it. Interpret | anything apart from the Holy Spirit, and you will mistrust it. This |
| Tx:8.63 | A medium of communication will lose its usefulness if it is used for | anything else. To use a medium of communication as a medium of attack |
| Tx:8.65 | joyous Teacher, and you must be learning amiss. To see a body as | anything except a means of pure extension is to limit your mind and |
| Tx:8.74 | which He is perfectly equipped to fulfill. The ego as a judge gives | anything but an impartial judgment. When the ego calls on a witness, |
| Tx:8.77 | of knowing how you feel. When we said that the ego does not know | anything, we said the one thing about the ego that is wholly true. |
| Tx:8.78 | doubt your willingness to listen until you will not to tolerate | anything except truth. When you lay the ego aside, it will be gone. |
| Tx:8.79 | let it reflect your will to attack. Health is the natural state of | anything whose interpretation is left to the Holy Spirit, Who |
| Tx:8.79 | is left to the Holy Spirit, Who perceives no attack on | anything. Health is the result of relinquishing all attempts to use |
| Tx:8.89 | healing. This is because it is the only level at which healing means | anything. The re-establishing of meaning in a chaotic thought system |
| Tx:8.90 | of what it really is. It is apparent that reality cannot “threaten” | anything except illusions, since reality can only uphold truth. The |
| Tx:8.91 | It is impossible to learn | anything consistently in a state of panic. If the purpose of this |
| Tx:8.94 | times that the Holy Spirit will never call upon you to sacrifice | anything. But if you ask the sacrifice of reality of yourselves, the |
| Tx:8.95 | to communicate simply because confused communication does not mean | anything. A message cannot be said to be communicated unless it makes |
| Tx:8.98 | to receive them? [The Holy Spirit is totally incapable of giving you | anything that does not come from God. His task is not to make |
| Tx:8.98 | you anything that does not come from God. His task is not to make | anything for you.] He cannot make you want something you do not want. |
| Tx:8.100 | being aware only of meaning. The ego cannot ask the Holy Spirit for | anything because there is complete communication failure between |
| Tx:8.109 | is wasted. The very fact that one has asked the Holy Spirit for | anything will ensure a response. Yet it is equally certain that no |
| Tx:8.113 | be answered as you hear the answer in everyone. Do not listen to | anything else, or you will not hear truth. |
| Tx:9.3 | makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not attempt to understand | anything that arises from it. Since He does not understand it, He |
| Tx:9.3 | it, He does not judge it, knowing that nothing it engenders means | anything. |
| Tx:9.9 | Atonement is for all, because it is the way to undo the belief that | anything is for you alone. To forgive is to overlook. Look, then, |
| Tx:9.15 | confusion which makes it likely that the ego will attack anyone and | anything for no reason at all. This is exactly what the ego does. It |
| Tx:9.21 | into awareness, but only to teach that they are not real and that | anything they contain is meaningless. The unhealed healer cannot do |
| Tx:9.37 | is one time, its only dimension being “always.” This cannot mean | anything to you, however, until you remember God's open arms and |
| Tx:9.37 | understanding. Could you but accept one of them, you would not want | anything the world has to offer. Everything else would be totally |
| Tx:9.39 | you are all united, and in this only. There will be disagreement on | anything else, but not on this. This, then, is where peace abides. |
| Tx:9.41 | the Holy Spirit's perception of you really is. He is not deceived by | anything you do, because He never forgets what you are. The ego is |
| Tx:9.44 | foundation is not true. Therefore, nothing that arises from it means | anything. The Holy Spirit judges every belief you hold in terms of |
| Tx:9.47 | not offer to God as wholly fitting for Him, for you do not want | anything else. Return your part of Him, and He will give you all of |
| Tx:9.59 | to regain eternity. You cannot do this as long as you believe that | anything which happens to you is caused by factors outside yourself. |
| Tx:9.61 | self so you could be like Him. That is why your will is holy. Can | anything exceed the love of God? Can anything, then, exceed your |
| Tx:9.61 | is why your will is holy. Can anything exceed the love of God? Can | anything, then, exceed your will? Nothing can reach you from beyond |
| Tx:9.61 | Believe this, and you will realize how much is up to you. When | anything threatens your peace of mind, ask yourself, |
| Tx:9.72 | [All attack is self-attack. It cannot be | anything else. Arising from your own decision not to be what you are, |
| Tx:9.100 | of God. Would He allow Himself to suffer? And would He offer His Son | anything that is not acceptable to Him? |
| Tx:9.105 | Do not perceive | anything God did not create, or you are denying Him. His is the only |
| Tx:9.106 | Only if you accept the Fatherhood of God will you have | anything, because His fatherhood gave you everything. That is why to |
| Tx:10.5 | You have learned your need of healing. Would you bring | anything else to the Sonship, recognizing your need of healing for |
| Tx:10.31 | your mind needs to learn what salvation is. You are not saved from | anything, but you are saved for glory. Glory is your inheritance, |
| Tx:10.34 | Only you can deprive yourself of | anything. Do not oppose this realization, for it is truly the |
| Tx:10.41 | “ego dynamics” by understanding that the term itself does not mean | anything. In fact, it contains exactly the contradiction in terms |
| Tx:10.41 | fallacy lies in the belief that the ego has the power to do | anything. The ego is fearful to you because you believe this. Yet the |
| Tx:10.42 | All power is of God. What is not of Him has no power to do | anything. |
| Tx:10.56 | its source. Yet reasoning without meaning cannot demonstrate | anything, and those who are convinced by it must be deluded. Can the |
| Tx:10.76 | You do not know the meaning of | anything you perceive. Not one thought you hold is wholly true. The |
| Tx:10.80 | only by asking will you learn that nothing that is of God demands | anything of you. God gives; He does not take. |
| Tx:10.83 | but has the answer in him, to give to anyone who asks it of him. Ask | anything of God's Son and His Father will answer you, for Christ is |
| Tx:11.1 | in its own right, and to believe in truth, you do not have to do | anything. Understand that you do not respond to stimuli, but to |
| Tx:11.3 | to him, for this and only this is what he is asking for. Offer him | anything else, and you are assuming the right to attack his reality |
| Tx:11.24 | and follow me. This is what I meant: If you had no investment in | anything in this world, you could teach the poor where their treasure |
| Tx:11.44 | that nothing happened. Therefore, by attacking you have not done | anything. Once you realize this, there is no longer any sense in |
| Tx:11.53 | perceive your Soul, but you will not know it while you perceive | anything else as more valuable. |
| Tx:11.70 | for its reality is only what you gave it. You cannot really give | anything but love to anyone or anything, nor can you really receive |
| Tx:11.70 | you gave it. You cannot really give anything but love to anyone or | anything, nor can you really receive anything else from them. If you |
| Tx:11.70 | anything but love to anyone or anything, nor can you really receive | anything else from them. If you think you have received anything |
| Tx:11.70 | receive anything else from them. If you think you have received | anything else, it is because you have looked within and thought you |
| Tx:13.1 | not consider where it is because the concept “where” does not mean | anything to it. It knows that it is everywhere, just as it has |
| Tx:13.46 | accomplished. You will be released, and you will not remember | anything you made that was not created for you and by you in return. |
| Tx:13.52 | will lead you where the Holy Spirit leads you not goes nowhere. | Anything you deny which He knows to be true, you have denied |
| Tx:13.73 | directed in and out and influencing a constellation larger than | anything you ever dreamed of. Those who accept the Atonement are |
| Tx:13.74 | There is nothing their wills will not provide that offers them | anything of value. Yet because they do not understand their will, the |
| Tx:13.89 | you release them, they are gone. God will not fail nor ever has in | anything. |
| Tx:14.1 | not endow Him with attributes you understand. You made Him not, and | anything you understand is not of Him. |
| Tx:14.19 | them with each other. And so you do not realize that only one means | anything, and the other is wholly without sense of any kind. |
| Tx:14.21 | the purpose of language is communication, how can this tongue mean | anything? Yet even this strange and twisted effort to communicate |
| Tx:14.31 | what you see. It is the recognition that nothing you see means | anything alone. Seeing with Him will show you that all meaning, |
| Tx:14.35 | separation vanishes. Unite with what you are. You cannot join with | anything except reality. God's glory and His Son's belong to you in |
| Tx:14.47 | of his Father dawns on him, and he can no longer be satisfied with | anything but his own reality. You on earth have no conception of |
| Tx:14.47 | to live in is a world of limits. In this world, it is not true that | anything without order of difficulty can occur. The miracle, |
| Tx:14.60 | yourselves. Let it all go. Do not attempt to understand any event or | anything or anyone in its light, for the light of darkness by which |
| Tx:14.62 | Never believe that any lesson you have learned apart from Him means | anything. |
| Tx:14.65 | I do not know what | anything, including this, means. And so I do not know how to respond |
| Tx:14.72 | for learning by thinking they already know. Think not you understand | anything until you pass the test of perfect peace, for peace and |
| Tx:14.73 | so by abandoning the ego on behalf of Him. Call not upon the ego for | anything. It is only this that you need do. The Holy Spirit will, of |
| Tx:15.22 | strange belief that littleness can content you. When you strive for | anything in this world with the belief that it will bring you peace, |
| Tx:15.30 | is not sacrifice to wake to glory. But it is a sacrifice to accept | anything less than glory. Learn that you must be worthy of the Prince |
| Tx:15.32 | will know you are complete, in need of nothing, and unable to accept | anything for yourself. But you will gladly give, having received. The |
| Tx:15.32 | gladly give, having received. The host of God need not seek to find | anything. |
| Tx:15.45 | impossible without the past, for without it you do not understand | anything. You would make no attempt to judge because it would be |
| Tx:15.45 | because it would be quite apparent to you that you do not know what | anything means. You are afraid of this because you believe that |
| Tx:15.91 | attract you and when you place no value on it as a means for getting | anything, then there will be no interference in communication, and |
| Tx:15.92 | of guilt does stand between them. Neither time nor season means | anything in eternity. But here it is the Holy Spirit's function to |
| Tx:16.3 | Your part is only to remember this—you do not want | anything you value to come of the relationship. You will neither to |
| Tx:16.19 | for you, nor will you ever do so. You have never tried to solve | anything yourself and been successful. Is it not time you brought |
| Tx:17.6 | will be complete or will be not at all.] Be not concerned with | anything except your willingness to have this be accomplished. He |
| Tx:17.7 | those you forgive will look to you? In no fantasy have you ever seen | anything so lovely. Nothing you see here, sleeping or waking, comes |
| Tx:17.9 | This step, the smallest ever taken by | anything, is still the greatest accomplishment of all in God's plan |
| Tx:17.27 | does not share His purpose can be real. The purpose God ascribed to | anything is its only function. Because of His reason for creating His |
| Tx:17.58 | The situation becomes the determiner of the outcome, which can be | anything. The reason for this disorganized approach is evident. The |
| Tx:17.62 | part in its accomplishment. This is inevitable. No one will fail in | anything. This seems to ask for faith beyond you and beyond what you |
| Tx:17.66 | of bodies is the sign of faithlessness, for bodies cannot solve | anything. And it is their intrusion on the relationship, an error in |
| Tx:18.46 | When you feel the holiness of your relationship is threatened by | anything, stop instantly and offer the Holy Spirit your willingness |
| Tx:18.60 | with something past, present, or anticipated. The “something” can be | anything and anywhere—a sound, a sight, a thought, a memory, and |
| Tx:18.69 | To do | anything involves the body. And if you recognize you need do nothing, |
| Tx:19.10 | gift of freedom from the past, which you received. You do not use | anything your brother has done before to condemn him now. You freely |
| Tx:19.46 | uprooted and floating aimlessly, can land and settle briefly upon | anything, for it has no purpose now. Before the Holy Spirit entered |
| Tx:19.73 | Why should the body be | anything to you? Certainly what it is made of is not precious. And |
| Tx:19.88 | When | anything seems to you to be a source of fear, when any situation |
| Tx:19.109 | his choice by what he gives and what is given him. Nor is it given | anything in hell or Heaven to interfere with his decision. |
| Tx:20.33 | The plan is not of you, nor need you be concerned with | anything except the part that has been given you to learn. For He Who |
| Tx:20.37 | was held outside them and finding what was lost. Only in time can | anything be lost, and never lost forever. So do the parts of God's |
| Tx:21.1 | with vision is healed and holy. Nothing perceived without it means | anything. And where there is no meaning, there is chaos. |
| Tx:21.8 | just a little wisp of melody, attached not to a person or a place or | anything particular. But you remember from just this little part how |
| Tx:21.10 | is joined in perfect continuity. Nor is it possible to imagine that | anything could be outside, for there is nowhere that this light is |
| Tx:21.21 | idea you have enshrined upon your altars and which you worship. And | anything which threatens this seems to attack your faith, for here is |
| Tx:21.37 | because you are afraid. The gift that He has given you is more than | anything that stands this side of Heaven. The instant for its |
| Tx:21.72 | in dreams? Any way at all. It could be seen attacking anyone with | anything. Dreams have no reason in them. A flower turns into a |
| Tx:22.11 | you thought was you. He was not given there, nor was received by | anything except yourself. For no two people can unite except through |
| Tx:22.13 | is part of Him is worthy of being joined. Nor is it possible that | anything not part of Him can join. Communication must have been |
| Tx:22.27 | as it would have it be. Here is no separate will nor the desire that | anything be separate. Its will has no exceptions, and what it wills |
| Tx:22.45 | need no defense. Everything that needs defense you do not want, for | anything that needs defense will weaken you. |
| Tx:22.50 | Forget not, when you feel the need arise to be defensive about | anything, you have identified yourself with an illusion. And |
| Tx:22.56 | bring is your remembrance of everything that is eternal. No trace of | anything in time can long remain in minds that serve the timeless. |
| Tx:22.62 | will not remember this while you believe attack of any kind means | anything. It is unjustified in any form because it has no meaning. |
| Tx:23.14 | in conflict with each other. And this occurs whenever you look on | anything that God created with anything but love. Conflict is |
| Tx:23.14 | And this occurs whenever you look on anything that God created with | anything but love. Conflict is fearful, for it is the birth of fear. |
| Tx:23.54 | the battleground can offer something that you can win. Can it be | anything that offers you a perfect calmness and a sense of love so |
| Tx:24.22 | And only specialness could make the truth of God and you as one seem | anything but Heaven and the hope of peace at last in sight. |
| Tx:24.28 | specialness is not the truth in you. It can be thrown off balance by | anything. What rests on nothing never can be stable. However large |
| Tx:24.59 | self-created, self-maintained, in need of nothing, and unjoined with | anything beyond the body. In its eyes, you are a separate universe |
| Tx:24.62 | the tiniest attack, the whispered doubt, the hint of threat, or | anything but deepest reverence. This is your son, beloved of you as |
| Tx:25.6 | from which it never separates nor gives the slightest witness unto | anything the purpose in your mind upholdeth not. Perception is a part |
| Tx:25.13 | from the world you see? In no respect at any time or place has | anything but fear and guilt been your reward. How long is needed for |

| Tx:26.57 | guaranteed when He created him as everything. It is impossible that | anything be lost if what you have is what you are. This is the |

| Tx:27.7 | you love. Depression speaks of death and vanity of real concern with | anything at all. The strongest witness to futility, which bolsters |
| Tx:27.36 | light. You are in conflict. Thus it must be clear you cannot answer | anything at all, for conflict has no limited effects. Yet if God gave |

| Tx:29.58 | beyond where God has set all things forever and has left no room for | anything to be except His Will. Nothing and nowhere must an idol be |
| Tx:29.65 | because he thinks the thoughts are real. And so he makes of | anything a toy to make his world remain outside himself, and play |
| Tx:30.30 | your happiness. You always ask advice before you can decide on | anything. Let this be understood, and you can see there cannot be |

| W1:14.6 | Suitable subjects for the application of today's idea also include | anything you are afraid might happen to you or to anyone about whom |
| W1:14.9 | The idea for today can, of course, be applied to | anything that disturbs you during the day, aside from the practice |
| W1:17.8 | or unpleasant. Regardless of what you may believe, you do not see | anything which is really alive and really joyous. That is because you |
| W1:21.3 | anger in you, and nothing that you believe in this connection means | anything. You will probably be tempted to dwell more on some |
| W1:25.1 | Purpose is meaning. Today's idea explains why nothing you see means | anything. You do not know what it is for. Therefore it is meaningless |
| W1:25.2 | This false identification makes you incapable of understanding what | anything is for. As a result, you are bound to misuse it. When you |
| W1:25.3 | therefore, you have no goals at all. And thus you do not know what | anything is for. |
| W1:27.6 | can still repeat one short sentence to yourself without disturbing | anything that is going on. |
| W1:28.4 | It is a commitment which applies to the table just as much as to | anything else, neither more nor less. |
| W1:29.1 | The idea for today explains why you can see all purpose in | anything. It explains why nothing is separate, by itself or in |
| W1:29.1 | by itself or in itself. And it explains why nothing you see means | anything. In fact, it explains every idea we have used thus far and |
| W1:34.3 | provoking situations, “offending” personalities or events, or | anything else about which you are harboring unloving thoughts. Note |
| W1:34.4 | the idea to yourself in an unhurried manner, without applying it to | anything in particular. Be sure, however, not to make any specific |
| W1:37.3 | that it is one with you, not by preaching to it, not by telling it | anything, but merely by your quiet recognition that in your holiness |
| W1:39.10 | intervals in which you just relax and do not seem to be thinking of | anything. Sustained concentration is very difficult at first. It will |

| W1:51.4 | [3] I do not understand | anything I see. How could I understand what I see when I have judged |
| W1:51.5 | [4] These thoughts do not mean | anything. The thoughts of which I am aware do not mean anything |

| W1:52.6 | [10] My thoughts do not mean | anything. I have no private thoughts. Yet it is only private thoughts |
| W1:53.2 | world. Since the thoughts of which I am aware do not mean | anything, the world which pictures them can have no meaning. What is |
| W1:54.5 | of God cannot think or speak or act in vain. He cannot be alone in | anything. It is therefore in my power to change every mind along with |

| W1:59.2 | when perfect certainty abides in Him? How can I be disturbed by | anything when He rests in me in absolute peace? How can I suffer when |
| W1:59.4 | see apart from Him. I can see what God wants me to see. I cannot see | anything else. Beyond His Will lie only illusions. It is these I |
| W1:60.4 | safe the world will look to me when I can see it! It will not look | anything like what I imagine I see now. Everyone and everything I see |
| W1:64.2 | Nothing the body's eyes seem to see can be | anything but a form of temptation, since this was the purpose of the |

| W1:69.13 | if you are tempted to hold | anything against anyone today. |
| W1:70.12 | you can reach the light. But remember also that you have never found | anything in the cloud patterns you imagined that endured or that you |
| W1:77.5 | the Will of God be done. In doing this, you do not really ask for | anything. You state a fact that cannot be denied. |
| W1:93.5 | not the Son of God. Therefore, this self does not exist at all. And | anything it seems to do and think means nothing. It is neither bad |
| W1:102.2 | is purposeless, without a cause, and with no power to accomplish | anything. It cannot purchase anything at all. It offers nothing and |

| W1:128.1 | that you need to offer you, nothing that you can use in any way, nor | anything at all that serves to give you joy. Believe this thought, |
| W1:128.4 | to salvation, nor permit temptation to believe the world has | anything you want to hold you back. Nothing is here to cherish. |
| W1:128.7 | today. And when your eyes are opened afterwards, you will not value | anything you see as much as when you looked at it before. Your whole |
| W1:131.2 | Who can use such senseless means and hope through them to gain in | anything? Where can they lead? And what could they achieve that |

| W1:151.12 | Such is your resurrection, for your life is not a part of | anything you see. It stands beyond the body and the world, past every |

| W2:WICR.1 | all that It created was not there. Nor will there be a time when | anything that It created suffers any change. Forever and forever are |

| Tx:13.30 | only as God loves. Seek not to love unlike Him, for there is no love | apart from His. Until you recognize that this is true, you will have |
| Tx:14.2 | on earth with which it can compare and nothing you have ever felt, | apart from Him, that resembles it ever so faintly. You cannot even |
| Tx:14.10 | curriculum of the Atonement. There is no unity of learning goals | apart from this. There is no conflict in this curriculum, which has |
| Tx:14.16 | cannot be shared, and so its value is unknown. The hidden is kept | apart, but value always lies in joint appreciation. What is concealed |
| Tx:14.17 | dispel, unless it is concealed from love's beneficence. What is kept | apart from love cannot share its healing power, because it has been |
| Tx:14.19 | of its opposite perfectly clear. Keep not guilt and guiltlessness | apart, for your belief that you can have them both is meaningless. |
| Tx:14.19 | can have them both is meaningless. All you have done by keeping them | apart is lose their meaning by confusing them with each other. And so |
| Tx:14.24 | yours, but not both. Opposites must be brought together and not kept | apart. For their separation is only in your mind, and they are |
| Tx:14.28 | You cannot have them both, for each denies the other. | Apart, this fact is lost from sight, for each in a separate place can |
| Tx:14.33 | to God? You cannot, then, offer it to His Son. For they are not | apart, and gifts to one are offered to the other. |
| Tx:14.38 | and of yourselves. The knowledge is safe, but wherein is your safety | apart from it? The making of time to take the place of timelessness |
| Tx:14.49 | about the thoughts which cross the mind of those who think they live | apart. For some are reflections of Heaven, while others are motivated |
| Tx:14.62 | has learned for you. Never believe that any lesson you have learned | apart from Him means anything. |
| Tx:15.37 | in perfect freedom. Every allegiance to a plan of salvation that is | apart from Him diminishes the value of His Will for you in your own |
| Tx:15.54 | of love is the meaning God gave to it. Give to it any meaning | apart from His, and it is impossible to understand it. Every brother |
| Tx:15.75 | union of bodies thus becomes the way in which you would keep minds | apart. For bodies cannot forgive. They can only do as the mind |
| Tx:15.92 | of Christ we celebrate together, for it has no meaning if we are | apart. |
| Tx:15.96 | Sacrifice is so essential to your thought system that salvation | apart from sacrifice means nothing to you. Your confusion of |
| Tx:15.101 | you think you see some scraps of safety. Do not try longer to keep | apart your thoughts and the Thought that has been given you. When |
| Tx:15.106 | in what you have cast outside yourself, and it has no meaning at all | apart from you. It is what you preferred to keep that has no meaning, |
| Tx:15.106 | its meaning. For unless the universe were joined in you, it would be | apart from God, and to be without Him is to be without meaning. |
| Tx:15.108 | darken the joy of Christmas, for the time of Christ is meaningless | apart from joy. Let us join in celebrating peace by demanding no |
| Tx:16.26 | what you taught is true. Alone you stand outside your teaching and | apart from it. But with them you must learn that you but taught |
| Tx:16.32 | but as a place of safety from which hatred is split off and kept | apart. The special love partner is acceptable only as long as he |
| Tx:16.54 | love has lost its meaning. Would you want this to be possible, even | apart from its evident impossibility? For if it were possible, you |
| Tx:16.66 | a relationship where it could not go with you, for you would not be | apart from it. |
| Tx:16.77 | given and will be truly received. For God's gifts have no reality | apart from your receiving them. Your receiving completes His giving. |
| Tx:17.22 | God's Son is one. Whom God has joined as one, the ego cannot break | apart. The spark of holiness must be safe, however hidden it may be, |
| Tx:17.27 | relate to your creations as God to His. For nothing God created is | apart from happiness, and nothing God created but would extend |
| Tx:17.61 | for truth and sanity, its outcome must be peace. And this is quite | apart from what the outcome is. If peace is the condition of truth |
| Tx:17.73 | dream. You whose relationship shares the Holy Spirit's goal are set | apart from loneliness because the truth has come. Its call for faith |
| Tx:17.79 | Father gave peace to you. For the goal of peace cannot be accepted | apart from its conditions, and you had faith in it, for no one |
| Tx:18.12 | the other holds within it. Would you still further weaken and break | apart what is already broken and hopeless? Is it here that you would |
| Tx:18.20 | alone, for therein lay its misery. As its unholiness kept it a thing | apart, its holiness will become an offering to everyone. |
| Tx:18.31 | together after a long and meaningless journey which you undertook | apart and which led nowhere. You have found each other and will light |
| Tx:18.49 | of the Son of God, who left not his Father and dwells not | apart from Him. Heaven is not a place nor a condition. It is merely |
| Tx:18.57 | seems to surround you, shutting you off from others and keeping you | apart from them [and them from you]. It is not there. There is no |
| Tx:18.72 | Limits on love will always seem to shut Him out and to keep you | apart from Him. The body is a tiny fence around a little part of a |
| Tx:18.73 | is this little thought, this infinitesimal illusion, holding itself | apart against the universe. The sun becomes the sunbeam's “enemy” |
| Tx:18.74 | Even that segment is not lost to them, for it could not survive | apart from them. And what it thinks it is in no way changes its total |
| Tx:18.75 | for by themselves they do mean nothing. Nor have they any life | apart and by themselves. |
| Tx:18.76 | surround it, preventing it from joining with the rest and keeping it | apart from its Creator. This little aspect is no different from the |
| Tx:18.77 | content to every part. The little aspect which you think you set | apart is no exception. |
| Tx:18.84 | Son of God, whole and omnipotent, sole ruler of the kingdom it set | apart to tyrannize by madness into obedience and slavery. |
| Tx:18.88 | joyless. Yet its intensity is veiled by its heavy coverings and kept | apart from what was made to keep it hidden. The body cannot see this, |
| Tx:19.4 | faithlessness to him has separated you from him and kept you both | apart from being healed. Your faithlessness has thus opposed the Holy |
| Tx:19.7 | needed. And it is here that healing is. For God gave healing not | apart from sickness, nor established remedy where sickness cannot be. |
| Tx:19.13 | you faith to give unto each other. Your faithlessness had driven you | apart, and so you did not recognize salvation in each other. Yet |
| Tx:19.32 | seems to be everywhere. And God and His creation seem to be split | apart and overthrown. For sin would prove what God created holy could |
| Tx:19.33 | which could attack His Will and overcome it and give His Son a will | apart from His and stronger. And each part of God's fragmented |
| Tx:19.39 | you are beholding Him. For you are looking where He is and not | apart from Him. You cannot see the Holy Spirit, but you can see your |
| Tx:19.43 | cannot be withheld from you. It is your purpose. You cannot will | apart from this. You have no purpose apart from each other nor apart |
| Tx:19.43 | your purpose. You cannot will apart from this. You have no purpose | apart from each other nor apart from the one you asked the Holy |
| Tx:19.43 | will apart from this. You have no purpose apart from each other nor | apart from the one you asked the Holy Spirit to share with you. The |
| Tx:19.57 | knowing its littleness? Or would I teach that bodies cannot keep us | apart? Mine was no greater value than yours; no better means for |
| Tx:19.66 | to the holy union of the Father and Son in you! And keep you not | apart from what is offered you in gratitude for giving peace its home |
| Tx:19.70 | in it will come with it, and what you think you are can never be | apart from it. The body is the great seeming betrayer of faith. In it |
| Tx:20.46 | and shared. It has no secrets; nothing that it would keep | apart and hide. It walks in sunlight, open-eyed and calm, in smiling |
| Tx:20.50 | the idols that are worshiped here are shrouded in mystery and kept | apart from those who worship them. This is the temple dedicated to no |
| Tx:20.57 | with their Father from themselves and keep remembrance of His love | apart from their awareness? |
| Tx:20.64 | end for which it was intended, nor is it valued as a separate thing | apart from the intention. The means seem real because the goal is |
| Tx:21.27 | of his Source. His union with It is the Source of his creating. | Apart from this he has no power to create, and what he makes is |
| Tx:21.48 | ego's weakness is revealed in both your sight. What it would keep | apart has met and joined, and looks upon the ego unafraid. Little |
| Tx:21.53 | God, for what God wills for him he must receive. For God wills not | apart from him, nor does the Will of God wait upon time to be |
| Tx:21.60 | sinless world? And who can see a sinful world and look upon himself | apart from it? Sin would maintain you must be separate. But reason |
| Tx:21.68 | who blessed him, reason will tell you that it cannot be you stand | apart from blessing. The gratitude he offers you reminds you of the |
| Tx:22.1 | God hath joined have come together and need no longer look on sin | apart. No two can look on sin together, for they could never see it |
| Tx:22.2 | common roof that shelters neither—in the same room and yet a world | apart. |
| Tx:22.8 | What could your secrets be except another will that is your own, | apart from His? Reason would tell you that this is no secret that |
| Tx:22.19 | in sin if the belief excludes one living thing and holds it out | apart from its forgiveness. |
| Tx:22.25 | Nothing you made has any power over you unless you still would be | apart from your Creator and with a will opposed to His. For only if |
| Tx:23.11 | is it up to you to say what shall be part of you and what is kept | apart. The war against yourself was undertaken to teach the Son of |
| Tx:23.13 | is no victor, and there is no victory. And truth stands radiant, | apart from conflict, untouched and quiet in the peace of God. |
| Tx:23.16 | Him and of yourself is home to both of you, who dwell as one and not | apart. Open the door of His most holy home and let forgiveness sweep |
| Tx:23.37 | of Heaven. Where God created life, there life must be. In any state | apart from Heaven, life is illusion. At best, it seems like life; at |
| Tx:24.6 | become a means and end at once. For specialness not only sets | apart but serves as grounds from which attack on those who seem |
| Tx:24.9 | only partial welcome or would let you think that you are better off | apart. Is it not always your belief your specialness is limited by |
| Tx:24.16 | messages the special hear convince them they are different and | apart—each in his special sins and “safe” from love, which does not |
| Tx:24.24 | your tiny self. Nothing is sacred here but unto you and you alone, | apart and separate from all your brothers, safe from all intrusions |
| Tx:24.24 | yourself, to rule in madness and in loneliness your special kingdom, | apart from God, away from truth and from salvation. |
| Tx:24.71 | and withers, flourishes and dies. And you cannot conceive of you | apart from it. You brand it sinful, and you hate its acts, judging it |
| Tx:25.1 | within you cannot be outside. And it is certain that you cannot be | apart from what is at the very center of your life. What gives you |
| Tx:25.6 | end are never separate. And thus you learn what seems to have a life | apart has none. |
| Tx:25.7 | You are the means for God—not separate nor with a life | apart from His. His Life is manifest in you who are His Son. Each |
| Tx:25.7 | to let Him draw aside the veil that seems to keep you separate and | apart. |
| Tx:25.14 | Is it not also true that you have found some hope | apart from this—some glimmering, inconstant, wavering, yet dimly |
| Tx:25.17 | The frame that God has given it but serves His purpose, not yours | apart from His. It is your separate purpose that obscures the picture |
| Tx:25.22 | to share; that you may see as one what never has been separate nor | apart from all God's love as given equally. |
| Tx:25.33 | will they be there for you to see. Nothing is harmful or beneficent | apart from what you wish. It is your wish that makes it what it is in |
| Tx:25.53 | is not his Father's Son because the Son is mad, and sanity must lie | apart from both the Father and the Son. This you believe. Think not |
| Tx:25.71 | vengeance without love has gained in strength by being separate and | apart from love. And what but vengeance now can help and save, while |
| Tx:25.83 | to be withheld from others as less worthy, more condemned, and thus | apart from healing. Who is there who can be separate from salvation |
| Tx:25.84 | gift, were given specially to an elect and special group and kept | apart from others as less deserving, then is He ally to specialness. |
| Tx:26.4 | can be made to sacrifice. And while you see your brother as a body, | apart from you and separate in his cell, you are demanding sacrifice |
| Tx:26.9 | he made to keep himself from justice? Could your function be a task | apart and separate from His Own? |
| Tx:26.19 | this world and Heaven. It is not a place, and when you reach it is | apart from time. Here is the meeting-place where thoughts are brought |
| Tx:26.26 | must join, for nothing stands between to keep them separate and | apart. The sinless must perceive that they are one, for nothing |
| Tx:26.26 | one, in gladness recognizing what is part of them has not been kept | apart and separate. |
| Tx:26.48 | meaning. Brought to truth, its senselessness is quite apparent. Kept | apart from truth, it seems to have a meaning and be real. |
| Tx:26.49 | truth, and what is true of knowledge is not true of anything that is | apart from it. Yet has God given answer to the world of sickness |
| Tx:26.49 | be. Ideas leave not their source, and their effects but seem to be | apart from them. Ideas are of the mind. What is projected out and |
| Tx:26.52 | of two opposing powers until God becomes impatient, splits the world | apart, and relegates attack unto Himself. Thus has He lost His Mind, |
| Tx:26.54 | in your perception by a body which is clearly separate and a thing | apart. Yet what this symbol represents is but your wish to be apart |
| Tx:26.54 | thing apart. Yet what this symbol represents is but your wish to be | apart and separate. Forgiveness takes away what stands between your |
| Tx:26.54 | and yourself. It is the wish that you be joined with him and not | apart. We call it “wish” because it still conceives of other choices |
| Tx:26.57 | became your function, sharing it with God. It is not understood | apart from Him and therefore has no meaning in this world. |
| Tx:26.59 | seem to be beyond you to control or to prevent. What is thus kept | apart can never join. |
| Tx:26.69 | There is a distance you would keep | apart from one another, and this space you see as time because you |
| Tx:26.81 | gather in Their Own. What has been locked is opened; what was held | apart from light is given up, that light may shine on it, and leave |
| Tx:27.10 | in any way at all. It has no life, but neither is it dead. It stands | apart from all experience of fear or love. For now it witnesses to |
| Tx:27.20 | Holy Spirit knows your healing is the witness unto his and cannot be | apart from his at all. As long as he consents to suffer, you will be |
| Tx:27.28 | one. Here is the function given It conceived to be Its own and not | apart from that Its Giver keeps because it has been shared. In His |
| Tx:27.43 | are the answers which will solve your problems because they stand | apart from them, and see what can be answered—what the question is. |
| Tx:27.47 | What stands | apart from you when you accept the blessing that the holy instant |
| Tx:27.64 | what I do. Your presence justifies my wrath, and you exist and think | apart from me. While you attack, I must be innocent. And what I |
| Tx:27.66 | not themselves a cause. Nor will the cause be changed by seeing it | apart from its effects. The cause produces the effects which then |
| Tx:27.68 | does not depend on him. Whatever cause they have is something quite | apart from him, and what he sees is separate from his mind. He cannot |
| Tx:27.77 | to teach itself its pains and joys are different and can be told | apart. |
| Tx:28.5 | The Holy Spirit's use of memory is quite | apart from time. He does not seek to use it as a means to keep the |
| Tx:28.17 | is recognized as not within the body, and its innocence is quite | apart from it and where all healing is. Where then is healing? Only |
| Tx:28.29 | guilt without your aid in letting it perceive itself as separate and | apart from you. Thus is the body not perceived as sick by both your |
| Tx:28.31 | of pestilence and every form of ill because it is a wish to keep | apart and not to join. And thus it seems to give a cause to sickness |
| Tx:28.34 | What is the world except a little gap perceived to tear eternity | apart and break it into days and months and years? And what are you |
| Tx:28.36 | Love has set Its table in the space that seemed to keep your Guests | apart from you. |
| Tx:28.38 | not accepting them as causing you and giving you effects. You stand | apart from them but not apart from him who dreams them. Thus you |
| Tx:28.38 | you and giving you effects. You stand apart from them but not | apart from him who dreams them. Thus you separate the dreamer from |
| Tx:28.38 | and what is but illusion in yourself you do not know and cannot tell | apart. |
| Tx:28.57 | the secret vow which you have made with every brother who would walk | apart. This is the secret oath you take again, whenever you perceive |
| Tx:28.58 | was made in secret, in agreement with another's secret wish to be | apart from you, as you would be apart from him. Unless you both agree |
| Tx:28.58 | with another's secret wish to be apart from you, as you would be | apart from him. Unless you both agree that is your wish, it can have |
| Tx:28.59 | be your agreement with each one—that you be one with him and not | apart. And he will keep the promise that you make with him because it |
| Tx:28.59 | and I of you forever. Be you perfect as Myself, for you can never be | apart from Me.” His Son remembers not that he replied “I will,” |
| Tx:28.61 | savior waits for healing, and the world waits with him. Nor are you | apart from it. For healing will be one or not at all, its oneness |
| Tx:28.64 | the dream that you can be alone and think without affecting those | apart from you. To be alone must mean you are apart, and if you are, |
| Tx:28.64 | affecting those apart from you. To be alone must mean you are | apart, and if you are, you cannot but be sick. This seems to prove |
| Tx:28.64 | are, you cannot but be sick. This seems to prove that you must be | apart. Yet all it means is that you tried to keep a promise to be |
| Tx:28.64 | solid and substantial in itself. Yet its stability cannot be judged | apart from its foundation. If it rests on straw, there is no need to |
| Tx:29.2 | is treacherous to those who fear, since fear and hate can never be | apart. No one who hates but is afraid of love and therefore must he |
| Tx:29.4 | to separate will you agree to meet from time to time and keep | apart in intervals of separation, which protect you from the |
| Tx:29.13 | them for your own. He needs your help in giving them to all who walk | apart believing they are separate and alone. They will be healed when |
| Tx:29.15 | given “life” is not alive and symbolizes but your wish to be alive | apart from life, alive in death, with death perceived as life, and |
| Tx:29.21 | a body, one with him, without the wall the world has built to keep | apart all living things who know not that they live. Within the dream |
| Tx:29.22 | what really fills the gap so long perceived as keeping you | apart. |
| Tx:29.37 | Such is the core of fear in every dream that has been kept | apart from use by Him Who sees a different function for a dream. When |
| Tx:29.53 | seek beyond his little self for strength to raise his head and stand | apart from all the misery the world reflects. This is the penalty for |
| Tx:29.53 | and quiet calm which liberates you from the world and lets you stand | apart in quiet and in peace [unlimited]. |
| Tx:29.54 | and cannot leave the mind that is its source. Nor is its form | apart from the idea it represents. All forms of anti-Christ oppose |
| Tx:29.55 | this place where what is everywhere has been excluded and been kept | apart? What hand could be held up to block God's way? Whose voice |
| Tx:30.37 | it is by your will the world is given freedom. Nor can you be free | apart from Him Whose holy will you share. God turns to you to ask the |
| Tx:30.43 | share the attributes of their creator, nor have they a separate life | apart from his. The thoughts you think are in your mind, as you are |
| Tx:30.48 | God holds of you exist but where you are? Is your reality a thing | apart from you and in a world which your reality knows nothing of? |
| Tx:30.75 | be except a false forgiveness of yourself and everyone who seems | apart from you? |
| Tx:30.76 | real and which appearances are true. If one appearance must remain | apart from healing, one illusion must be part of truth. And you could |
| Tx:30.86 | who gains and him who loses. There could be no thought of sacrifice | apart from this idea. And it is this idea of different goals which |
| Tx:31.5 | God but to uphold a wish that It could be opposed, and that a will | apart from It was yet more real than It. And this has learning sought |
| Tx:31.49 | Concepts are learned. They are not natural. | Apart from learning, they do not exist. They are not given, and they |
| Tx:31.64 | the body without help but do not understand how to behold a world | apart from it. It is your world salvation will undo and let you see |
| Tx:31.76 | one error—that there is a space between you and your brother, kept | apart by an illusion of yourself which holds him off from you and you |
| Tx:31.78 | of the Son of God? How would you know his holiness while you see him | apart from yours? For holiness is seen through holy eyes that look |
| Tx:31.79 | choice of whether you would join with what you see or keep yourself | apart and separate. |
| Tx:31.88 | those who chose His strength instead of their own weakness, seen | apart from Him. They will redeem the world, for they are joined in |

| W1:30.2 | Thus we are trying to join with what we see, rather than keeping it | apart from us. That is the fundamental difference between vision and |
| W1:43.3 | You cannot see | apart from God because you cannot be apart from God. Whatever you do, |
| W1:43.3 | You cannot see apart from God because you cannot be | apart from God. Whatever you do, you do in Him because whatever you |

| W1:154.4 | this joining through the Voice of God of Father and of Son that sets | apart salvation from the world. It is this Voice which speaks of laws |
| W1:154.10 | we undertake to recognize today. We will not seek to keep our minds | apart from Him Who speaks for us, for it is but our voice we hear as |
| W1:155.10 | will be gone from you as well, with nothing left to keep the truth | apart from God's completion, holy as Himself. Step back in faith, and |
| W1:156.1 | text—ideas leave not their source. If this be true, how can you be | apart from God? How could you walk the world alone and separate from |
| W1:156.2 | be in parts uncertain and in others sure. You cannot walk the world | apart from God because you could not be without Him. He is what your |
| W1:156.2 | is. There is one Life. That Life you share with Him. Nothing can be | apart from Him and live. |

| W1:193.15 | us think about all things we saved to settle by ourselves and kept | apart from healing. Let us give them all to Him Who knows the way to |

| M:20.6 | for Himself. Why would you seek to keep your tiny, frail imaginings | apart from Him? The Will of God is one and all there is. This is your |
| M:22.7 | of God, accepting him as God created him. No longer does he stand | apart from God, determining where healing should be given and where |

| W1:193.7 | Certain it is that all distress does not | appear to be but unforgiveness. Yet that is the content underneath |

| M:6.2 | should feel disappointed if he has offered healing and it does not | appear to have been received. It is not up to him to judge when his |

| Tx:24.52 | as all you wish to be accomplished by the world, by time, and all | appearances, you will not know the Father nor yourself. For you will |

| Tx:30.74 | the Will of God. Only if this were possible could there be some | appearances which could withstand the miracle and not be healed by it. |
| Tx:30.75 | prepared as yet to let all idols go. And thus you think that some | appearances are real and not appearances at all. Be not deceived |
| Tx:30.75 | idols go. And thus you think that some appearances are real and not | appearances at all. Be not deceived about the meaning of a fixed |
| Tx:30.75 | all. Be not deceived about the meaning of a fixed belief that some | appearances are harder to look past than others are. It always means |
| Tx:30.76 | heal. Its purpose cannot be to judge which forms are real and which | appearances are true. If one appearance must remain apart from |
| Tx:30.76 | some forms of guilt which you cannot forgive. And so there cannot be | appearances which have replaced the truth about God's Son. |
| Tx:30.89 | Appearances deceive but can be changed. Reality is changeless. It | |
| Tx:30.89 | It does not deceive at all, and if you fail to see beyond | appearances, you are deceived. For everything you see will change, |

| Tx:30.90 | effects which anything in Heaven or on earth could ever alter. But | appearances are shown to be unreal because they change. |
| Tx:30.91 | no answer to the prayer, nor can a miracle be given you to heal | appearances you do not like. You have established limits. What you |
| Tx:30.92 | does not interfere at all. The cost of the belief there must be some | appearances beyond the hope of change is that the miracle cannot come |
| Tx:31.21 | Because he is your equal in God's love, you will be saved from all | appearances and answer to the Christ Who calls to you. Be still and |
| Tx:31.23 | Forgive your brother all | appearances, which are but ancient lessons that you taught yourself |
| Tx:31.25 | back and forward in the darkness and alone. Yet these are but | appearances of what the journey is and how it must be made. For next |
| Tx:31.29 | could never change unless the mind preferred the body change in its | appearances to suit the purpose given by the mind. For it can learn, |

| W1:56.5 | forever. And we who are part of Him will yet look past all | appearances and recognize the truth beyond them all. |

| W1:99.7 | you entrusted with this plan, along with Him. He has one answer to | appearances regardless of their form, their size, their depth, or any |
| W1:99.16 | your mind. If you are tempted to believe them true, remember that | appearances cannot withstand the truth these mighty words contain: |
| W1:107.5 | trust in all the seeming difficulties and the doubts that the | appearances the world presents engender. They will merely blow away |
| W1:109.1 | We ask for rest today and quietness unshaken by the world's | appearances. We ask for peace and stillness in the midst of all the |
| W1:109.2 | power to wake the sleeping truth in you, whose vision sees beyond | appearances to that same truth in everyone and everything there is. |
| W1:109.4 | rest remains completely undisturbed. Yours is the rest of truth. | Appearances cannot intrude on you. You call to all to join you in |
| W1:110.3 | If you remain as God created you, | appearances cannot replace the truth, health cannot turn to sickness, |
| W1:122.13 | as you return again to meet a world of shifting change and bleak | appearances. Retain your gifts in clear awareness as you see the |
| W1:122.13 | see the changeless in the heart of change, the light of truth behind | appearances. Be tempted not to let your gifts slip by and drift into |
| W1:124.5 | We see it in | appearances of pain, and pain gives way to peace. We see it in the |

| M:8.6 | “sicker” than others, and the body's eyes will report their changed | appearances as before. But the mind will put them all in one category |
| M:12.4 | they use the body for, they do not believe in the illusion despite | appearances. |

| Tx:31.81 | you choose between. There are but two. Be not deceived by what | appears as many choices. There is hell or Heaven, and of these you |

| W1:68.3 | while the part of your mind that weaves illusions in its sleep | appears to be awake. Can all this arise from holding grievances? Oh, |
| W1:72.1 | attributes which are actually associated with the ego, while the ego | appears to take on the attributes of God. |

| W1:187.7 | The thought of sacrifice gives rise to all the forms that suffering | appears to take. And sacrifice is an idea so mad that sanity |

| W1:196.10 | in which terror seems to grip your mind so wholly that escape | appears quite hopeless. When you realize once and for all that it is |
| W1:198.7 | many seeming separate haunts where mercy has no meaning and attack | appears as justified. Yet all are one—a place where death is |
| W1:198.12 | all its weird beliefs forgotten with it, as the face of Christ | appears unveiled at last in this one dream. This is the gift the Holy |
| W1:200.6 | are true, a worthy purpose? Who could hope for more while there | appears to be a choice to make between success and failure, love and |
| W1:200.9 | Father calls; the Son will hear. And that is all there is to what | appears to be a world apart from God where bodies have reality. |
| W2:WIS.4 | A madman's dreams are frightening, and sin | appears indeed to terrify. And yet what sin perceives is but a |

| W1:15.7 | Although you will obviously not be able to | apply the idea to very many things during the minute or so of |
| W1:25.8 | have completed the statement. Then move on to the next subject, and | apply today's idea as before. |

| W1:30.4 | your present range as well as those you can actually see, as you | apply today's idea. Real vision is not only unlimited by space and |
| W1:31.1 | Generally speaking, the form includes two aspects, one in which you | apply the idea on a more sustained basis, and the other consisting of |
| W1:31.2 | repeating the idea two or three times. Then close your eyes and | apply the same idea to your inner world. You will escape from both |

| W1:33.5 | Remember to | apply today's idea the instant you are aware of distress. It may be |
| W1:35.11 | or attributes you are ascribing to yourself at the time and | apply the idea for today to them, adding the idea to each of them in |
| W1:37.4 | for today followed by a minute or so of looking about you as you | apply the idea to whatever you see: |
| W1:37.6 | Then close your eyes and | apply the idea to any person who occurs to you, using his name and |
| W1:37.8 | period with your eyes closed; you may open your eyes again and | apply the idea for today to your outer world if you so desire; you |
| W1:37.9 | the idea as often as you can. It is particularly helpful to | apply it silently to anyone you meet, using his name as you do so. It |
| W1:38.3 | In today's exercises, we will | apply the power of your holiness to all problems, difficulties, or |
| W1:38.9 | In the frequent shorter applications, | apply the idea in its original form unless a specific problem |
| W1:39.3 | be saved. How else can he teach salvation? Today's exercises will | apply to you alone, recognizing that your salvation is crucial to the |
| W1:39.3 | that your salvation is crucial to the salvation of the world. As you | apply the exercises to your own world, the whole world stands to |
| W1:39.8 | mind for every thought that stands between you and your salvation. | Apply the idea for today to each one of them in this way: |
| W1:R1.4 | however, that you learn to require no special settings in which to | apply what you have learned. You will need it most in situations |
| W1:R1.6 | It is not necessary to return to the original statements nor to | apply the ideas as was suggested then. We are now emphasizing the |

| W1:80.6 | as frequently as possible. And be particularly sure to remember to | apply the idea for today to any specific problem that may arise. Say |
| W1:193.10 | hold these words in full awareness, and do not forget these words | apply to everything you see or any brother looks upon amiss. |

| W1:I.5 | decrease their efficacy. But allow yourself to make no exceptions in | applying the ideas the exercises contain. Whatever your reactions to |
| W1:1.1 | Now look slowly around you, and practice | applying this idea very specifically to whatever you see: |
| W1:1.5 | The statement is merely applied to anything you see. As you practice | applying the idea for the day, use it totally indiscriminately. Do |
| W1:2.2 | button, a fly or a floor, an arm or an apple. The sole criterion for | applying the idea to anything is merely that your eyes have lighted |
| W1:3.1 | of any kind. Whatever you see becomes a proper subject for | applying the idea. Be sure that you do not question the suitability |
| W1:5.1 | each form becomes a proper subject for the exercises for the day. | Applying the same idea to each of them separately is the first step |
| W1:6.4 | Again, if you resist | applying the idea to some upsetting thoughts more than to others, |
| W1:7.10 | This is equally true of whatever you look at. Acknowledge this by | applying the idea for today indiscriminately to whatever catches your |
| W1:9.2 | active resistance in any number of forms. Yet that does not preclude | applying it. No more than that is required for these or any other |
| W1:9.3 | four practice periods are sufficient, involve looking about you and | applying the idea for the day to whatever you see, remembering the |
| W1:10.8 | discomfort. Remember, however, to repeat the idea slowly before | applying it specifically, and also to add: |
| W1:12.6 | Be sure that you do not alter the time intervals between | applying today's idea to what you think is pleasant and what you |
| W1:14.9 | during the day, aside from the practice periods. Be very specific in | applying it. Say: |
| W1:16.4 | In | applying the idea for today, search your mind for a minute or so, |
| W1:16.4 | of the quality which you assign to it, is a suitable subject for | applying today's idea. |
| W1:17.2 | In | applying today's idea, say to yourself, with eyes open: |
| W1:21.1 | specific mind searching periods are necessary in addition to | applying the idea to particular situations as they arise. Five |
| W1:23.6 | the day as the need arises, five practice periods are required in | applying today's idea. As you look about you, repeat the idea slowly |

| W1:31.1 | to both the world you see without and the world you see within. In | applying the idea, we will use a form of practice which will be used |

| W1:36.3 | times slowly. Then open your eyes and look quite slowly about you, | applying the idea specifically to whatever you note in your casual |
| W1:37.8 | to your outer world if you so desire; you may alternate between | applying the idea to what you see around you and to those who are in |
| W1:38.4 | and also the name of the person concerned. Use this form in | applying the idea for today: |
| W1:39.11 | Do not, however, change the idea itself in varying the method of | applying it. However you elect to use it, the idea should be stated |
| W1:40.3 | of the attributes which you associate with being a Son of God, | applying them to yourself. One practice period might, for example, |

| Tx:10.53 | by breaking it up is clearly the characteristically contradictory | approach of the ego to everything. Never forget that the ego believes |
| Tx:17.58 | the outcome, which can be anything. The reason for this disorganized | approach is evident. The ego does not know what it wants to come of |
| Tx:17.60 | everything which helps you meet it. It is quite noticeable that this | approach has brought you closer to the Holy Spirit's sorting out of |
| Tx:18.42 | Never | approach the holy instant after you have tried to remove all fear and |
| Tx:19.24 | think you carefully before you allow yourself to make this choice. | Approach it not lightly, for it is the choice of hell or Heaven. |
| Tx:19.29 | Everything seen from the spiral is misperceived, but as you | approach the line, you realize that it was not affected by the drop |
| Tx:19.92 | promise made in secret to the ego never to lift this veil, not to | approach it nor even to suspect that it is there. This is the secret |

| Tx:26.10 | each one is solved in just the same respect and through the same | approach. The aspects which need solving do not change, whatever form |
| Tx:31.55 | Although this step has gains, it does not yet | approach a basic question. Something must have gone before these |
| W1:20.1 | even active cooperation and interest have been asked. This casual | approach has been intentional and very carefully planned. We have not |
| W1:41.6 | reach past all these things. You are trying to leave appearances and | approach reality. |
| W1:44.8 | While no particular form of | approach is advocated, what is needful is a sense of the importance |
| W1:45.11 | For this kind of practice, only one thing is necessary— | approach it as you would an altar dedicated in Heaven itself to God |
| W1:49.3 | to hear the Voice reminding you of God and of your Self. We will | approach this happiest and holiest of thoughts with confidence, |
| W1:107.9 | of truth. The shaky and unsteady footsteps of illusion is not our | approach today. We are as certain of success as we are sure we live |
| W1:121.3 | of stillness; terrified of darkness, yet more terrified at the | approach of light. |
| W1:131.17 | There walks with you the Spirit Heaven sent you that you might | approach this door some day and through His aid slip effortlessly |
| W1:136.1 | is automatic. It dispels this meaningless illusion by the same | approach that carries all of them to truth and merely leaves them |
| W1:156.6 | frightening, ridiculous perhaps, but who would waste an instant in | approach to God Himself for such a senseless whim? |
| W1:156.7 | is gone with all its fantasies. They keep you bound no longer. The | approach to God is near. And in the little interval of doubt which |
| W1:R5.1 | on the road this course sets forth. But now we hasten on, for we | approach a greater certainty, a firmer purpose and a surer goal. |
| W1:R5.15 | is far beyond their sound. The sound grows dim and disappears as we | approach the Source of meaning. It is here that we find rest. |
| M:2.3 | passed by is looked upon as a new thought, a fresh idea, a different | approach. Because your will is free, you can accept what has already |
| M:5.4 | mind, not of the body. If sickness is but a faulty problem-solving | approach, it is a decision. And if it is a decision, it is the mind |
| M:14.4 | of God in this concluding lesson? He need merely learn how to | approach it, to be willing to go in its direction. He need merely |

| W1:R5.7 | remains our goal, and as we practice, it is This to which we are | approaching. Let us raise our hearts from dust to life as we remember |
| W1:194.1 | of God. How far are we progressing now from earth! How close are we | approaching to our goal! How short the journey still to be pursued! |

| Tx:11.6 | motivation, but you do need His. Only appreciation is an | appropriate response to your brother. Gratitude is due him for both |
| Tx:17.49 | for this another relationship to which your former goal was quite | appropriate. You can escape from your distress only by getting rid of |
| Tx:20.64 | lies not in them, but in their purpose. Both are but means, each one | appropriate to the end for which it is employed. Neither can serve |
| Tx:21.41 | fearful to admit. Fear in association with sin the ego deems quite | appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no fear to let you feel |
| W1:23.3 | fantasy a better word for such a process and hallucination a more | appropriate term for the result? |
| W1:24.1 | outcome that would make you happy. Therefore you have no guide to | appropriate action and no way of judging the result. What you do is |
| W1:40.2 | of situations during the day when closing your eyes would not be | appropriate. Do not miss a practice period because of this. You can |
| W1:42.8 | Remember, though, that active searching for relevant thoughts is not | appropriate for today's exercises. Try merely to step back and let |
| W1:67.4 | Any attribute which is in accord with God as He defines Himself is | appropriate for use. We are trying today to undo your definition of |
| W1:135.2 | a belief that there is danger which has power to call on you to make | appropriate defense. |

| Tx:3.21 | fear. This is particularly unfortunate because frightened people are | apt to be vicious. Sacrificing another in any way is a clear cut |
| Tx:3.27 | The partly innocent are | apt to be quite stupid at times. It is not until their innocence |
| Tx:6.4 | be and has been misunderstood. This is only because the fearful are | apt to perceive fearfully. |
| Tx:6.72 | first lesson was “to have, give all to all.” We said that this is | apt to increase conflict temporarily, and we can clarify this still |
| Tx:7.101 | what is painful than you know what is joyful and are in fact very | apt to confuse the two. The Holy Spirit's main function is to teach |
| W1:72.3 | for salvation. But let us consider the kinds of things which you are | apt to hold grievances for. Are they not always associated with |
| W1:134.1 | Let us review the meaning of “forgive,” for it is | apt to be distorted and to be perceived as something which entails an |
| W1:163.3 | too quickly lost however hard to gain, uncertain in their outcome, | apt to fail the hopes they once engendered and to leave the taste of |
| M:4.7 | until the second is complete. Therefore, the period of overlap is | apt to be one in which the teacher of God feels called upon to |

arbitrarily (2) | ||
| Tx:8.92 | truth is. All that this kind of association means is that you are | arbitrarily endowing something quite beyond your awareness with |

| Tx:11.33 | will. The world you made is therefore totally chaotic, governed by | arbitrary and senseless “laws,” and without meaning of any kind. For |

| W1:184.7 | of learning can begin, a new perception can be gained, and all the | arbitrary names the world bestows can be withdrawn as they are raised |
| M:10.4 | without ever realizing you were wrong? Why would you choose such an | arbitrary basis for decision-making? Wisdom is not judgment; it is |

| W1:2.1 | in particular, and do not attempt to include everything in an | area or you will introduce strain. Merely glance easily and fairly |
| W1:74.9 | If there is one conflict | area which seems particularly difficult to resolve, single it out for |
areas (9) | ||
| Tx:3.44 | always involves some misuse of will, because it involves the mind in | areas of uncertainty. The mind is very active because it has |
| Tx:7.22 | purpose than this course. The Holy Spirit has taken very diversified | areas of your learning and has applied them to a unified curriculum. |
| Tx:8.70 | Knowledge never changes, so its constellation is permanent. The only | areas in which part-whole relationships have any meaning are those in |
| Tx:11.47 | There are | areas in your learning skills which are so impaired that you can |
| Tx:17.49 | part entirely if you choose not to do so. But you must exclude major | areas of fantasy from each other to save your sanity. Hear not this |
| Tx:20.58 | parts you find more difficult than others are merely indications of | areas where means and end are still discrepant. And this produces |
| W1:108.6 | where it is tried, the thought behind it can be generalized to other | areas of doubt and double vision. And from there it will extend and |
| M:22.1 | perception. Partial Atonement is a meaningless idea, just as special | areas of hell in Heaven is inconceivable. Accept Atonement, and you |

| W1:132.6 | and that it changes as you change your mind. But it is pride that | argues you have come into a world quite separate from yourself, |
| M:18.1 | to confuse interpretation with fact or illusion with truth. If he | argues with his pupil about a magic thought, attacks it, tries to |

| Tx:7.11 | why they perceive “the freedoms” as many instead of as one. Yet the | argument that underlies the defense of freedom is perfectly valid. |
| Tx:8.72 | that you are not invulnerable? This is a particularly appealing | argument from the ego's point of view because it obscures the obvious |
| Tx:8.76 | need to depend on external guidance. The ego uses this as its best | argument for your need for its guidance. It dictates endless |
| Tx:27.21 | the Holy Spirit be deterred an instant, even less, to reason with an | argument for sickness such as this? And need your healing be delayed |
arguments (4) | ||
| Tx:7.11 | and you do respond to two conflicting voices. You have heard many | arguments on behalf of “the freedoms,” which would indeed have been |
| W1:66.3 | at the truth about your function. We will not engage in ceaseless | arguments about what it is. We will not become hopelessly involved in |
| W1:73.6 | Do you really want to weep and suffer and die? Forget the ego's | arguments which seek to prove all this is really Heaven. You know it |
| W1:188.2 | already or was never there? It can so easily be looked upon that | arguments which prove it is not there become ridiculous. Who can deny |

| Tx:9.99 | message, He has answered you, and you will learn of Him if you hear | aright. The love of God is in everything He created, for His Son is |
| Tx:11.52 | Everything else will be given you. For it is your will to learn | aright, and nothing can oppose the Will of God's Son. His learning is |
| W1:190.1 | at all. There is no form it takes which will not disappear if seen | aright. For pain proclaims God cruel. How could it be real in any |

| Tx:1.71 | 44. Miracles | arise from a miraculous state of mind. By being one, this state of |
| Tx:2.44 | the body. The many body fantasies with which men's minds are engaged | arise from the distorted belief that the body can be used as a means |
| Tx:3.38 | no levels, and all conflict arises from the concept of levels. [Wars | arise where some regard others as if they were on a different level. |
| Tx:3.38 | as if they were on a different level. All interpersonal conflicts | arise from this fallacy.] Only the levels of the Trinity are capable |
| Tx:4.45 | the impulses from the superconscious and perceives them as if they | arise in the unconscious. The ego judges what is to be accepted, and |
| Tx:8.70 | they may well be inaccurate. Functions are part of being since they | arise from it, but the relationship is not reciprocal. The whole does |

| Tx:19.37 | obstacles. Some of them you will try to impose. Others will seem to | arise from elsewhere—from your brothers and from various aspects of |
| Tx:21.52 | or grasp the information it would give? All sorts of questions may | arise in it, but if the basic question stems from reason, it will not |
| Tx:22.5 | disconnected, and your haunting fear of lack of meaning in yourself | arise? It is as though you wandered in without a plan of any kind |
| Tx:22.50 | Forget not, when you feel the need | arise to be defensive about anything, you have identified yourself |
| Tx:24.42 | Where could your peace | arise but from forgiveness? The Christ in you looks only on the truth |
| Tx:26.59 | meaningful. And from this error does the world of sin and sacrifice | arise. This world is an attempt to prove your innocence while |
| Tx:27.58 | for it is the effects of life it brings. The dying live, the dead | arise, and pain has vanished. Yet a miracle speaks not but for |
| Tx:29.28 | merely wanted. It is the idea that they exist from which the fears | arise. Dreams are not wanted more or less. They are desired or not. |

| W1:34.3 | all casually, repeating the idea for today slowly as you watch them | arise in your mind, and let each one go, to be replaced by the next. |
| W1:39.14 | question, repeat today's idea, or preferably both. If temptations | arise, a particularly helpful form of the idea is: |

| W1:79.3 | to confront you, and as one is settled the next one and the next | arise. There seems to be no end to them. There is no time in which |
| W1:80.6 | to apply the idea for today to any specific problem that may | arise. Say quickly: |
| W1:81.3 | forms for applying today's idea when specific difficulties seem to | arise might be: |

| W1:17.1 | despite the temptation to believe that it is really the other way | around. This is not the way the world thinks, but you must learn that |
| W1:32.3 | by repeating the idea for today two or three times while looking | around at the world you see as outside yourself. Then close your eyes |
| W1:32.3 | the world you see as outside yourself. Then close your eyes and look | around your inner world. Try to treat them both as equally as |
| W1:33.2 | but without an abrupt sense of shifting. Merely glance casually | around the world you perceive as outside yourself, then close your |
| W1:37.8 | desire; you may alternate between applying the idea to what you see | around you and to those who are in your thoughts; or you may use any |
| W1:43.5 | periods, repeat the idea to yourself with eyes open. Then glance | around you for a short time, applying the idea specifically to what |

| W1:65.2 | Today and for a number of days to follow, set | aside ten to 15 minutes for a more sustained practice period in which |
| W1:68.14 | no grievances. I would wake to my Self by laying all my grievances | aside and wakening in Him. |
| W1:69.6 | past the clouds. Reach out and touch them in your mind; brush them | aside with your hand; feel them resting on your cheeks and forehead |
| W1:70.7 | again be well to decide in advance when would be a good time to lay | aside for each of them and adhere to your own decision as closely as |
| W1:72.11 | what we do not recognize. Now we are going to try to lay judgment | aside and ask what God's plan for us is: |
| W1:78.5 | you have used as target for your grievances and lay the grievances | aside and look at him. Someone perhaps you fear and even hate; |
| W1:78.11 | thanks you for these quiet times today in which you laid your images | aside and looked upon the miracle of love the Holy Spirit showed you |
| W1:80.2 | the Holy Spirit to give you God's answer. You have laid deception | aside and seen the light of truth. You have accepted salvation for |
| W1:85.2 | vision must be joined for me to see. To see, I must lay grievances | aside. I want to see, and this will be the means by which I will |
| W1:91.5 | Three times today, set | aside about ten minutes for a quiet time in which you try to leave |
| W1:94.6 | of you to reach this goal except to lay all idols and self-images | aside, go past the long list of attributes, both “good” and “bad,” |
| W1:95.11 | the first and reinforcing it. It is this process that must be laid | aside, for it is but another way in which you would defend illusions |
| W1:98.2 | How happy to be certain! All our doubts we lay | aside today and take our stand with certainty of purpose and with |
| W1:99.14 | here, and let Him teach you what you need to learn to lay all fear | aside and know your Self as Love Which has no opposite in you. |
| W1:99.20 | do you lay forgiveness on your mind and let all fear be gently laid | aside that Love may find Its rightful place in you and show you that |
| W1:104.6 | Then lay | aside the conflicts of the world that offer other gifts and other |
| W1:104.6 | by them, and sought for only in a world of dreams. All this we lay | aside and seek instead that which is truly ours, as we ask to |
| W1:106.1 | If you will lay | aside the ego's voice, however loudly it may seem to call; if you |
| W1:120.3 | [110] I am as God created me. I am God's Son. Today I lay | aside all sick illusions of myself and let my Father tell me Who I |
| W1:127.10 | and health to shed its blessing upon all who come to learn to cast | aside the world they thought was made in hate to be love's enemy. Now |
| W1:133.14 | We will attempt to reach this state today, with self-deception laid | aside and with an honest willingness to value but the truly valuable |
| W1:135.21 | the world is lighted up with joy. And gladly will our brothers lay | aside their cumbersome defenses which availed them nothing and could |

| W1:152.10 | We lay | aside the arrogance which says that we are sinners, guilty and |
| W1:152.11 | God's Son implies as well that all self-concepts have been laid | aside and recognized as false. Their arrogance has been perceived. |

| W1:165.5 | blindness for the seeing eyes of Christ; your mind has come to lay | aside denial and accept the Thought of God as its inheritance. |
| W1:182.11 | Take time today to lay | aside your shield which profits nothing and lay down the spear and |
| W1:186.4 | All false humility we lay | aside today that we may listen to God's Voice reveal to us what He |

| Tx:8.98 | you.] He cannot make you want something you do not want. When you | ask the Universal Giver for what you do not want, you are asking for |
| Tx:8.99 | the only Cause. God is Love, and you do want Him. This is your will. | Ask for this and you will be answered because you will be asking only |
| Tx:8.100 | When you | ask the Holy Spirit for what would hurt you, He cannot answer, |
| Tx:8.100 | Any desire which stems from the ego is a desire for nothing and to | ask for it is not a request. It is merely a denial in the form of a |
| Tx:8.100 | with form at all, being aware only of meaning. The ego cannot | ask the Holy Spirit for anything because there is complete |
| Tx:8.100 | there is complete communication failure between them. Yet you can | ask for everything of the Holy Spirit because your requests are real, |
| Tx:8.110 | Answer, believe in me whose faith in you cannot be shaken. Can you | ask of the Holy Spirit truly and doubt your brother? Believe his |
| Tx:8.114 | the sake of what God gave them. They will answer you if you learn to | ask truth of them. Do not ask for blessings without blessing them, |
| Tx:8.114 | them. They will answer you if you learn to ask truth of them. Do not | ask for blessings without blessing them, for only in this way can you |
| Tx:8.118 | You can | ask of the Holy Spirit, then, only by giving to Him, and you can give |
| Tx:8.118 | the only way, to have His answer because His answer is all you can | ask for and want. Say, then, to everyone, |
| Tx:9.16 | how appropriately can you expect him to react? You might still | ask yourself, regardless of how you can account for the reactions, |
| Tx:9.43 | Your littleness is taken for granted there, and you do not | ask, “Who granted it?” The question is meaningless within the ego's |
| Tx:9.58 | can attack it or prevail over it. It does not vary. It merely is. | Ask the Holy Spirit what it is and He will tell you, but do not be |
| Tx:9.61 | how much is up to you. When anything threatens your peace of mind, | ask yourself, |
| Tx:9.79 | from God through me to you. It was for you, although you did not | ask. |
| Tx:10.12 | own will and therefore do not know what it is. The reason you must | ask what God's Will is in everything is merely because it is yours. |
| Tx:10.12 | do not know what it is, but the Holy Spirit remembers it for you. | Ask Him, therefore, what God's Will is for you, and He will tell you |
| Tx:10.20 | fills your mind so that He becomes your only Guest. Whenever you | ask the ego to enter, you lessen His welcome. He will remain, but you |
| Tx:10.75 | that they do not understand what they perceive, and so they | ask what it means. Do not make the mistake of believing that you |
| Tx:10.75 | As long as you think you know its meaning, you will see no need to | ask it of Him. |
| Tx:10.77 | except from himself. Yet God will not refuse the answer He gave you. | Ask, then, for what is yours but which you did not make, and do not |
| Tx:10.77 | yourself against truth. You made the problem which God has answered. | Ask yourselves, therefore, but one simple question— |
| Tx:10.80 | could be more specific than to be told very clearly that if you | ask you will receive. The Holy Spirit will answer every specific |
| Tx:10.81 | You are refusing to | ask because you believe that asking is taking, and you do not |
| Tx:10.81 | only to restore, be capable of misinterpreting the question you must | ask to learn His answer? |
| Tx:10.82 | but you have misunderstood the question. You have believed that to | ask for guidance of the Holy Spirit is to ask for deprivation. Little |
| Tx:10.82 | You have believed that to ask for guidance of the Holy Spirit is to | ask for deprivation. Little Children of God, you do not understand |
| Tx:10.83 | Blessed are you who will | ask the truth of God without fear, for only thus can you learn that |
| Tx:10.83 | that it is in you. God's Sons have nothing which they do not share. | Ask for truth of any Son of God, and you have asked it of me. No one |
| Tx:10.83 | us but has the answer in him, to give to anyone who asks it of him. | Ask anything of God's Son and His Father will answer you, for Christ |
| Tx:10.85 | What problems will not disappear in the presence of God's answer? | Ask, then, to learn of the reality of your brother because this is |
| Tx:10.88 | ghosts and monsters and dragons, and they are terrified. Yet if they | ask someone they trust for the real meaning of what they perceive and |
| Tx:10.89 | Ask what they are of the Teacher of Reality, and hearing His answer, | |
| Tx:10.89 | perceive truly, they are not afraid. And because of this, they will | ask for truth again when they are frightened. It is not the reality |
| Tx:10.89 | are, and so you perceive them as ghosts and monsters and dragons. | Ask of their reality from the One who knows it, and He will tell you |
| Tx:11.17 | which terrify them because they do not understand them. If they | ask for enlightenment and accept it, their fears vanish, but if they |
| Tx:11.27 | Recognize what does not matter, and if your brothers | ask you for something “outrageous,” do it because it does not matter. |
| Tx:11.48 | the ability to generalize is a crucial learning failure. Would you | ask those who have failed to learn what learning aids are for? They |
| Tx:11.80 | it, but you cannot lose it. A Voice will answer every question you | ask, and a Vision will correct the perception of everything you see. |
| Tx:11.81 | You have but to | ask for this memory, and you will remember. Yet the memory of God |
| Tx:12.20 | did not give it, for the request was alien to Him, and you could not | ask this of a Father Who truly loved His Son. Therefore you made of |
| Tx:12.45 | made and cherish instead of him. In your questioning of illusions, | ask yourself if it is really sane to perceive what was now. If you |
| Tx:12.54 | to your own awareness. Love always leads to love. The sick who | ask for love are grateful for it, and in their joy, they shine with |
| Tx:12.69 | and so you lose whatever you have gotten in its name. Therefore | ask not of yourselves what you need, for you do not know and your |
| Tx:13.75 | Who gives you everything will simply offer it to you? He will never | ask what you have done to make you worthy of the gift of God. Ask it |
| Tx:13.75 | never ask what you have done to make you worthy of the gift of God. | Ask it not therefore of yourselves. Instead, accept His answer, for |
| Tx:13.76 | it. Make no decisions about what it is or where it lies, but | ask of the Holy Spirit everything and leave all decisions to His |
| Tx:13.88 | For what He knows not cannot be and therefore cannot be given. | Ask not to be forgiven, for this has already been accomplished. Ask, |
| Tx:13.88 | Ask not to be forgiven, for this has already been accomplished. | Ask, rather, to learn how to forgive and restore what always was to |
| Tx:14.8 | him in his creation. Do not try to steal it from him, or you will | ask for guilt and will experience it. Protect his purity from every |
| Tx:14.64 | You need only recognize that everything you learned you do not want. | Ask to be taught and do not use your experiences to confirm what you |
| Tx:15.12 | thought of how long it would take to change your mind so completely, | ask yourself, “How long is an instant?” Could you not give so short a |
| Tx:15.42 | communication while breaking communication holds value to you. | Ask yourselves honestly, “Would I want to have perfect communication, |
| Tx:15.93 | incapable of receiving sacrifice as God is, and every sacrifice you | ask of yourself, you ask of me. Learn now that sacrifice of any kind |
| Tx:15.93 | sacrifice as God is, and every sacrifice you ask of yourself, you | ask of me. Learn now that sacrifice of any kind is nothing but a |
| Tx:16.9 | of it. Leave Him His function, for He will fulfill it if you but | ask Him to enter your relationships and bless them for you. |
| Tx:17.2 | it also makes it unreal. You cannot be faithful to two masters who | ask of you conflicting things. What you use in fantasy, you deny to |
| Tx:17.62 | This is inevitable. No one will fail in anything. This seems to | ask for faith beyond you and beyond what you can give. Yet this is so |
| Tx:17.66 | used against truth will always destroy faith. If you lack faith, | ask that it be restored where it was lost and seek not to have it |
| Tx:18.32 | do more. Do not attempt to give the Holy Spirit what He does not | ask, or you will add the ego unto Him and confuse the two. He asks |
| Tx:18.34 | Humility will never | ask that you remain content with littleness. But it does require that |
| Tx:18.36 | You merely | ask the question. The answer is given. Seek not to answer it, but |
| Tx:18.42 | is its function. Never attempt to overlook your guilt before you | ask the Holy Spirit's help. That is His function. Your part is only |
| Tx:18.81 | which would interfere with its glad coming. In the holy instant, you | ask of love only what it offers everyone, neither less nor more. |
| Tx:19.54 | contains no fear which you laid not upon it. And none you cannot | ask love's messengers to remove from it and see it still. The Holy |
| Tx:19.60 | This “sacrifice” you feel to be too great to make, too much to | ask of you. |
| Tx:19.65 | forgiveness, he will remember who he is and forget what never was. I | ask for your forgiveness, for if you are guilty, so must I be. But if |
| Tx:19.70 | lies disillusionment and the seeds of faithlessness, but only if you | ask of it what it cannot give. Can your mistake be reasonable grounds |
| Tx:19.85 | nor twisted rituals of condemnation to which the body leads you. | Ask not release of it. But free it from the merciless and unrelenting |
| Tx:20.23 | Ask not this transient stranger, “What am I?” He is the only thing in | |
| Tx:20.23 | through the universe of truth, becomes your guide. To it you turn to | ask the meaning of the universe. And of the one blind thing in all |
| Tx:20.23 | And of the one blind thing in all the seeing universe of truth you | ask, “How shall I look upon the Son of God?” |
| Tx:20.24 | Does one | ask judgment of what is totally bereft of judgment? And if you have, |
| Tx:20.24 | to bless the other? That is the purpose of your holy relationship. | Ask not the means of its attainment of the one thing that still would |
| Tx:20.31 | be imprisoned. It is of them who learned of freedom that you should | ask what freedom is. Ask not the sparrow how the eagle soars, for |
| Tx:20.31 | of them who learned of freedom that you should ask what freedom is. | Ask not the sparrow how the eagle soars, for those with little wings |
| Tx:20.35 | the way to peace is open. Perhaps this seems impossible to you. But | ask yourself if it is possible that God would have a plan for your |
| Tx:20.66 | question should not be, “How can I see my brother without the body?” | Ask only, “Do I really wish to see him sinless?” And as you ask, |
| Tx:20.66 | body?” Ask only, “Do I really wish to see him sinless?” And as you | ask, forget not that his sinlessness is your escape from fear. |
| Tx:20.68 | your desire but to receive it. Vision is freely given to those who | ask to see. |
| Tx:20.69 | and to rejoice in along with Him. For peace will come to all who | ask for it with real desire and sincerity of purpose, shared with the |
| Tx:21.38 | be exacted of a body and by another body. The mind could neither | ask it nor receive it of itself. And no more could the body. The |
| Tx:21.43 | sin? This “fearful” question is one the ego never asks. And you who | ask it now are threatening the ego's whole defensive system too |
| Tx:21.52 | in it, but if the basic question stems from reason, it will not | ask it. Like all that stems from reason, the basic question is |
| Tx:21.54 | of you that knows His Will and shares it. It is not meaningful to | ask if what must be is so. But it is meaningful to ask why you are |
| Tx:21.54 | not meaningful to ask if what must be is so. But it is meaningful to | ask why you are unaware of what is so, for this must have an answer |
| Tx:21.58 | shifted, and you have asked the question which the ego will never | ask. Does not your reason tell you now the question must have come |
| Tx:21.74 | let sin tell him that his enemy must be himself. But let him only | ask himself these questions, which he must decide to have it done for |
| Tx:21.78 | look on the effects of sin in any form, all you need do is simply | ask yourself, |
| Tx:21.88 | Reason will tell you that you cannot | ask for happiness inconstantly. For if what you desire you receive |
| Tx:21.88 | what you desire you receive and happiness is constant, then you need | ask for it but once to have it always. And if you do not have it |
| Tx:21.88 | And if you do not have it always, being what it is, you did not | ask for it. For no one fails to ask for his desire of something he |
| Tx:21.88 | being what it is, you did not ask for it. For no one fails to | ask for his desire of something he believes holds out some promise of |
| Tx:21.88 | it. He may be wrong in what he asks, where, and of what. Yet he will | ask because desire is a request, an asking for, and made by one whom |
| Tx:21.90 | to you. For here the final question is already answered and what you | ask for given. Here is the future now, for time is powerless because |
| Tx:23.40 | you sure the goal of Heaven can be reached? If not, you walk alone. | Ask, then, your Friend to join with you and give you certainty of |
| Tx:24.31 | is the hell you chose to be your home. He chose not this for you. | Ask not He enter this. The way is barred to love and to salvation. |
| Tx:24.33 | God asks your mercy on His Son and on Himself. Deny them not. They | ask of you but that your will be done. They seek your love that you |
| Tx:24.65 | Ask yourself this: can you protect the mind? The body, yes, a little | |
| Tx:25.66 | You who know not of justice still can | ask and learn the answer. Justice looks on all in the same way. It is |
| Tx:25.70 | Yet justice cannot punish those who | ask for punishment but have a Judge Who knows that they are wholly |
| Tx:25.71 | bereft of justice and vitality and powerless to save? What can Love | ask of you who think that all of this is true? Could He, in justice |
| Tx:25.74 | truly. Simple justice asks no more. Of each one does the Holy Spirit | ask if he will be that one, so justice may return to love and there |
| Tx:26.5 | who would see the witnesses to truth instead of to illusion merely | ask that they might see a purpose in the world that gives it sense |
| Tx:26.10 | It is not difficult to understand the reasons why you do not | ask the Holy Spirit to solve all problems for you. He has not greater |
| Tx:26.14 | he condemned, and he deserves no mercy from the God of justice. But | ask not God to punish him because you find him guilty and would have |
| Tx:26.15 | One is given you to see in him his perfect sinlessness. And you will | ask no sacrifice of him because you could not will he suffer loss. |
| Tx:26.58 | Here does the Son of God | ask not too much but far too little. He would sacrifice his own |
| Tx:26.78 | Is it too much to | ask a little trust for him who carries Christ to you, that you may be |
| Tx:26.87 | perceived to be unfair and not your just deserts. Yet it is you who | ask this of yourself in deep injustice to the Son of God. You have no |
| Tx:27.38 | outside a single simple question is ever asked. The world can only | ask a double question with many answers, none of which will do. It |
| Tx:27.38 | question with many answers, none of which will do. It does not | ask a question to be answered, but only to restate its point of view. |
| Tx:27.41 | the response should be. But no one in a conflict state is free to | ask this question, for he does not want an honest answer where the |
| Tx:27.42 | it answers questions truly asked. The questions of the world but | ask of whom is sacrifice demanded, asking not if sacrifice is |
| Tx:27.44 | And it is born the instant it is offered and received. No one can | ask another to be healed. But he can let himself be healed and thus |
| Tx:28.20 | are the happy dreams the miracle exchanges for your own. It does not | ask you make another—only that you see you made the one you would |
| Tx:28.60 | God asks for nothing, and His Son, like Him, need | ask for nothing. For there is no lack in him. An empty space, a |
| Tx:29.61 | they raise him up? Hear then your story in the dream you made, and | ask yourself if it be not the truth that you believe that it is not a |
| Tx:30.6 | major problem now. You still make up your mind and then decide to | ask what you should do. And what you hear may not resolve the problem |
| Tx:30.10 | this has happened if you feel yourself unwilling to sit by and | ask to have the answer given you. This means you have decided by |
| Tx:30.10 | cannot see the question. Now you need a quick restorative before you | ask. |
| Tx:30.24 | brought to your awareness, for you cannot be in conflict when you | ask for what you want and see that it is this for which you ask. |
| Tx:30.24 | when you ask for what you want and see that it is this for which you | ask. |
| Tx:30.27 | Thus you now can | ask a question that makes sense, and so the answer will make sense as |
| Tx:30.29 | you decide. For they are made with idols or with God. And you | ask help of Christ or anti-Christ, and which you choose will join |
| Tx:30.30 | whose counsel you have sought perceives your happiness. You always | ask advice before you can decide on anything. Let this be understood, |
| Tx:30.37 | free apart from Him Whose holy will you share. God turns to you to | ask the world be saved, for by your own salvation it is healed. And |
| Tx:30.38 | it is your will that everything be yours. Decide for idols, and you | ask for loss. Decide for truth, and everything is yours. |
| Tx:30.41 | what you think it offers you, you want indeed and have the right to | ask for. Nor could it be possible it be denied. Your will to be |
| Tx:30.91 | appearances you do not like. You have established limits. What you | ask is given you, but not of God Who knows no limits. You have |
| Tx:31.17 | found. The voice you hear in him is but your own. What does he | ask you for? And listen well! For he is asking what will come to you |
| Tx:31.64 | Salvation does not | ask that you behold the Spirit and perceive the body not. It merely |
| Tx:31.93 | Deny me not the little gift I | ask when in exchange I lay before your feet the peace of God and |
| Tx:31.93 | in salvation, do not fail to hear my voice and listen to my words. I | ask for nothing but your own release. There is no place for hell |
| W1:22.5 | At the end of each practice period, | ask yourself: |
| W1:23.3 | a pictorial representation of your own attack thoughts. One can well | ask if this can be called seeing. Is not fantasy a better word for |
| W1:28.4 | we have already defined. And the purpose of these exercises is to | ask questions and receive the answers. In saying, “Above all else I |
| W1:39.14 | made some three or four times an hour and more if possible, you may | ask yourself this question, repeat today's idea, or preferably both. |
| W1:71.10 | extended practice periods to asking God to reveal His plan to us. | Ask Him very specifically: |
| W1:72.11 | do not recognize. Now we are going to try to lay judgment aside and | ask what God's plan for us is: |
| W1:72.14 | Now we would see and hear and learn. “What is salvation, Father?” | Ask and you will be answered. Seek and you will find. |
| W1:72.15 | Be certain, then, that the answer will be true because of Whom you | ask. Whenever you feel your confidence wane and your hope of success |
| W1:77.3 | that the Kingdom of God is within you and can never be lost. We | ask no more than what belongs to us in truth. Today, however, we will |
| W1:77.5 | that the Will of God be done. In doing this, you do not really | ask for anything. You state a fact that cannot be denied. |
| W1:77.9 | Ask for them whenever a situation arises in which they are called | |
| W1:77.9 | them, you are therefore fully entitled to receive them whenever you | ask. |
| W1:78.6 | name has crossed your mind already. He will be the one of whom we | ask God's Son be shown to us. Through seeing him behind the |
| W1:78.8 | Then let us | ask of Him Who knows this Son of God in his reality and truth that we |
| W1:78.8 | savior shining in the light of true forgiveness given unto us. We | ask Him in the holy Name of God and of His Son, as holy as Himself: |
| W1:78.9 | behold my savior in this one You have appointed as the one for me to | ask to lead me to the holy light In which he stands, that I may join |
| W1:79.7 | In our longer practice periods today, we will | ask what the problem is and what is the answer to it. We will not |
| W1:79.7 | we have only one problem, which we have failed to recognize. We will | ask what it is and wait for the answer. We will be told. Then we will |
| W1:79.7 | what it is and wait for the answer. We will be told. Then we will | ask for the solution to it. And we will be told. |
| W1:79.12 | what the problem is. If possible, close your eyes for a moment and | ask what it is. You will be heard and you will be answered. |
| W1:91.10 | If you are not a body, what are you? | Ask this in honesty, and then devote several minutes to allowing your |
| W1:92.8 | to give itself away because it cannot give but to itself. No one can | ask in vain to share its sight, and none who enters its abode can |
| W1:94.6 | truth. God has Himself promised that it will be revealed to all who | ask for it. You are asking now. You cannot fail because He cannot |
| W1:101.2 | be true. The sinful warrant only death and pain, and it is this they | ask for, for they know it waits for them and it will seek them out |
| W1:104.6 | this we lay aside and seek instead that which is truly ours, as we | ask to recognize what God has given us. |
| W1:106.10 | Ask and expect an answer. Your request is one whose answer has been | |
| W1:106.11 | hour is past, you will again release a thousand more who pause to | ask that truth be given them along with you. |
| W1:107.8 | wills these dreams be gone. Let truth correct them all. We do not | ask for what we do not have. We merely ask for what belongs to us, |
| W1:107.8 | correct them all. We do not ask for what we do not have. We merely | ask for what belongs to us, that we may recognize it as our own. |
| W1:107.10 | your Father knows that you are both the same. It is your Self you | ask to go with you, and how could He be absent where you are? |
| W1:109.1 | We | ask for rest today and quietness unshaken by the world's appearances. |
| W1:109.1 | for rest today and quietness unshaken by the world's appearances. We | ask for peace and stillness in the midst of all the turmoil born of |
| W1:109.1 | in the midst of all the turmoil born of clashing dreams. We | ask for safety and for happiness, although we seem to look on danger |
| W1:121.5 | what it sees bears witness that its judgment is correct. It does not | ask because it thinks it knows. It does not question, certain it is |
| W1:126.7 | His gifts and think He has not given them to you. Yet would He | ask you for a gift unless it was for you? Could He be satisfied with |
| W1:126.8 | But the Help you need is there. Give Him your faith today and | ask Him that He share your practicing in truth today. And if you only |
| W1:126.10 | are changed and false beliefs laid by. Repeat today's idea, and | ask for help in understanding what it really means. Be willing to be |
| W1:131.3 | it is the search for nothingness, and while you seek for life you | ask for death. You look for safety and security while in your heart |
| W1:131.11 | No one can fail who asks to reach the truth, and it is truth we | ask to reach today. We will devote ten minutes to this goal three |
| W1:131.11 | will devote ten minutes to this goal three times today, and we will | ask to see the rising of the real world to replace the foolish images |
| W1:131.13 | I | ask to see a different world and think a different kind of thought |
| W1:133.2 | You do not | ask too much of life, but far too little. When you let your mind be |
| W1:133.2 | concerns, to things you buy, to eminence as valued by the world, you | ask for sorrow, not for happiness. This course does not attempt to |
| W1:134.9 | mind to dwell on what you think he did, for this is self-deception. | Ask instead, “Should I accuse myself of doing this?” |
| W1:134.15 | the meaning of forgiveness and was sent to us to teach it. Let us | ask of Him: |
| W1:134.17 | consider all the evil things you thought of him, and each time | ask yourself “Would I condemn myself for doing this?” |
| W1:135.4 | real and terror justified. Is it not strange you do not pause to | ask, as you elaborate your plans and make your armor thicker and your |
| W1:136.15 | is our aim today. And we will give a quarter of an hour twice to | ask the truth to come to us and set us free. |
| W1:137.12 | invite your Self to be at home, and can this invitation be refused? | Ask the inevitable to occur, and you will never fail. The other |
| W1:137.12 | to occur, and you will never fail. The other choice is but to | ask what cannot be to be, and this cannot succeed. Today we ask that |
| W1:137.12 | but to ask what cannot be to be, and this cannot succeed. Today we | ask that only truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing |
| W1:139.2 | Yet who could | ask this question except one who has refused to recognize himself? |
| W1:139.5 | There is no doubt of this, and yet you doubt it. But you do not | ask what part of you can really doubt yourself. It cannot really be a |
| W1:139.7 | and in your own. It is so far beyond all doubt and question that to | ask what it must be is all the proof you need to show that you |
| W1:151.2 | question what is shown you through the body's eyes. Nor do you | ask why you believe it, even though you learned a long while since |
| W1:152.14 | will we wait in silence, giving up all self-deceptions as we humbly | ask our Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left will |
| W1:154.5 | he delivers. Nor does he question the right of him who does nor | ask why he has chosen those who will receive the message that he |
| W1:157.4 | He will direct your practicing today, for what you | ask for now is what He wills. And having joined your will with His |
| W1:160.8 | belongs where He has set His Son forever. He has answered you who | ask, “Who is the stranger?” Hear His Voice assure you, quietly and |
| W1:161.10 | you, for you will not perceive that in his hands is your salvation. | Ask him but for this, and he will give it to you. Ask him not to |
| W1:161.10 | is your salvation. Ask him but for this, and he will give it to you. | Ask him not to symbolize your fear. Would you request that love |
| W1:161.12 | Select one brother, symbol of the rest, and | ask salvation of him. See him first as clearly as you can in that |
| W1:161.13 | Ask this of him that he may set you free: | |
| W1:165.4 | the gift, how changed your mind will be before it comes to you. | Ask to receive, and it is given you. Conviction lies within it. Till |
| W1:165.5 | Ask with desire. You need not be sure that you request the only thing | |
| W1:167.10 | he sleeps and sees in dreams an opposite to what he is? We will not | ask for death in any form today. Nor will we let imagined opposites |
| W1:168.3 | Today we | ask of God the gift He has most carefully preserved within our |
| W1:169.11 | And now we | ask for grace, the final gift salvation can bestow. Experience that |
| W1:169.13 | And revelation stands not far behind. Its coming is ensured. We | ask for grace and for experience that comes from grace. We welcome |
| W1:169.13 | from grace. We welcome the release it offers everyone. We do not | ask for the unaskable. We do not look beyond what grace can give. For |
| W1:169.14 | this prayer, yet in the world, what could be more than what we | ask this day of Him Who gives the grace we ask as it was given Him? |
| W1:169.14 | be more than what we ask this day of Him Who gives the grace we | ask as it was given Him? |

| W1:170.7 | them. Harsh punishment is meted out relentlessly to those who | ask if the demands are sensible or even sane. It is their enemies who |
| W1:181.9 | Nor do we | ask for fantasies. For what we seek to look upon is really there. And |
| W1:181.10 | into the present. And we give our trust to the experience we | ask for now. Our sinlessness is but the Will of God. This instant is |
| W1:182.5 | His voice cries unto you to let Him rest a while. He does not | ask for more than just a few instants of respite—just an interval |
| W1:182.11 | Christ has called you friend and brother. He has even come to you to | ask your help in letting Him go home completed and completely. He has |
| W1:185.7 | These words do not request another dream be given us. They do not | ask for compromise nor try to make another bargain in the hope that |
| W1:185.8 | of your mind to find the dreams you cherish still. What do you | ask for in your heart? Forget the words you use in making your |
| W1:185.10 | who seem to seek for dreams. For them as well as for yourself you | ask but this when you make this request with deep sincerity. For thus |
| W1:185.12 | established as His own eternal gift. How can you fail when you but | ask for what He wills for you? And how could your request be limited |
| W1:186.3 | you the perfect trust He holds in you who are His Son. It does not | ask that you be different in any way from what you are. What could |
| W1:189.8 | forever. God will do His part in joyful and immediate response. | Ask and receive. But do not make demands nor point the road to God by |
| W1:189.10 | created us. Yours is the way that we would find and follow. And we | ask but that Your Will, which is our own as well, be done in us and |
| W1:200.3 | Yet you can | ask as easily for love, for happiness, and for eternal life in peace |
| W1:200.3 | for happiness, and for eternal life in peace that has no ending. | Ask for this, and you can only win. To ask for what you have already |
| W1:200.3 | in peace that has no ending. Ask for this, and you can only win. To | ask for what you have already must succeed. To ask that what is false |
| W1:200.3 | you can only win. To ask for what you have already must succeed. To | ask that what is false be true can only fail. Forgive yourself for |
| W2:I.7 | did not forget us. And we know that You will not forget us now. We | ask but that Your ancient promises be kept which are Your will to |
| W2:222.2 | lips and in our minds as we come quietly into Your Presence now and | ask to rest with You in peace a while. |
| W2:230.1 | my Father, that when He created me He gave me peace forever. Now I | ask but to be what I am. And can this be denied me, when it is |
| W2:242.2 | so we give today to You. We come with wholly open minds. We do not | ask for anything that we may think we want. Give us what You would |
| W2:254.1 | to receive Your Word. I have no prayer but this: I come to You to | ask You for the truth. And truth is but Your Will, which I would |
| W2:269.1 | I | ask Your blessing on my sight today. It is the means which You have |
| W2:269.1 | and through His lessons to surpass perception and return to truth. I | ask for the illusion which transcends all those I made. Today I |
| W2:272.2 | call to us to stay and linger in a dream, we turn aside and | ask ourselves if we, the Sons of God, could be content with dreams |
| W2:278.2 | Father, I | ask for nothing but the truth. I have had many foolish thoughts about |
| W2:285.1 | with joy, expecting but the happy things of God to come to me. I | ask but them to come and realize my invitation will be answered by |
| W2:285.1 | by the thoughts to which they have been sent by me. And I will | ask for only joyous things the instant I accept my holiness. For what |
| W2:290.2 | With this resolve, I come to You and | ask Your strength to hold me up today while I but seek to do Your |
| W2:290.2 | but seek to do Your Will. You cannot fail to hear me, Father. What I | ask have You already given me, and I am sure that I will see my |
| W2:323.1 | Here is the only “sacrifice” You | ask of Your beloved Son—You ask him to give up all suffering, all |
| W2:323.1 | Here is the only “sacrifice” You ask of Your beloved Son—You | ask him to give up all suffering, all sense of loss and sadness, all |
| W2:323.1 | and giving him Your own eternal joy. Such is the “sacrifice” You | ask of me, and one I gladly make, the only “cost” of restoration of |
| W2:339.1 | will frighten him and bring him suffering. Let us resolve today to | ask for what we really want, and only this, that we may spend this |
| W2:WIM.4 | The miracle is taken first on faith because to | ask for it implies the mind has been made ready to conceive of what |
| W2:FL.6 | We come in honesty to Him and say we did not understand and | ask Him to help us to learn His lessons through the Voice of His own |
| W2:E.1 | answer and will gladly give it to you if you simply turn to Him and | ask it of Him. He will not withhold all answers that you need for |
| W2:E.1 | and resolve all doubts. His certainty is yours. You need but | ask it of Him, and it will be given you. |
| W2:E.6 | trust all things to Him. In confidence we wait His answers, as we | ask His Will in everything we do. He loves God's Son as we would love |
| M:4.9 | for a long, long time. He must learn to lay all judgment aside and | ask only what he really wants in every circumstance. Were not each |
| M:5.9 | The simple presence of a teacher of God is a reminder. His thoughts | ask for the right to question what the patient has accepted is true. |
| M:5.9 | As God's messengers, His teachers are the symbols of salvation. They | ask the patient for forgiveness for God's Son in his own name. They |
| M:6.1 | even try to destroy himself. Having nothing to live for, he may | ask for death. Healing must wait, for his protection. |
| M:11.1 | This is a question everyone must | ask. Certainly peace seems to be impossible. Yet the Word of God |
| M:11.2 | Again we come to the question of judgment. This time, | ask yourself whether your judgment or the Word of God is more likely |
| M:21.1 | all in healing. The motivating factor is prayer, or asking. What you | ask for, you receive. But this refers to the prayer of the heart, not |
| M:21.2 | help the healing process. The prayer of the heart does not really | ask for concrete things. It always requests some kind of experience, |
| M:23.3 | for help? What did he say about this? Remember his promises, and | ask yourself honestly whether it is likely that he will fail to keep |
| M:26.4 | to be escaped. Salvation is not theoretical. Behold the problem, | ask for the answer, and then accept it when it comes. Nor will its |
| M:29.2 | aspects are under the Holy Spirit's particular care and guidance. | Ask and He will answer. The responsibility is His, and He alone is |
| M:29.5 | his Creator and accept His gifts. And His gifts have no limit. To | ask the Holy Spirit to decide for you is simply to accept your true |
| M:29.5 | which this course is most concerned. If you have made it a habit to | ask for help when and where you can, you can be confident that wisdom |
| M:29.5 | for this each morning, remember God when you can throughout the day, | ask the Holy Spirit's help when it is possible to do so, and thank |
| M:29.6 | not let his child harm himself or choose his own destruction. He may | ask for injury, but his father will protect him still. And how much |
| M:29.7 | is but illusion. And He has given you the means to prove it so. | Ask all things of His Teacher, and all things are given you. Not in |

| Tx:5.46 | Joining the Atonement, which I have repeatedly | asked you to do, is always a way out of fear. This does not mean that |
| Tx:5.91 | worthy of being healed because God created it whole. You are merely | asked to return to God the mind as He created it. He asks you only |
| Tx:5.93 | But the time is now. You have not been | asked to work out the plan of salvation yourselves because, as I told |
| Tx:6.2 | and you are responsible for what you believe. You have been | asked to take me as your model for learning, since an extreme example |
| Tx:6.9 | yourselves, or you have believed that it is assailable. You are not | asked to be crucified, which was part of my own teaching |
| Tx:6.9 | which was part of my own teaching contribution. You are merely | asked to follow my example in the face of much less extreme |
| Tx:6.14 | His way for all. You are not persecuted, nor was I. You are not | asked to repeat my experiences, because the Holy Spirit, Whom we |

| Tx:6.77 | You are not | asked to make insane decisions, although you are free to think you |
| Tx:8.3 | are inaccurate perceptions of reality. Yet you are not | asked to dispel them alone. You are merely asked to evaluate them in |
| Tx:8.3 | reality. Yet you are not asked to dispel them alone. You are merely | asked to evaluate them in terms of their results to you. If you do |
| Tx:8.49 | for me?” He will not hide it. He has revealed it to me, because I | asked it of Him and learned of what He had already given. Our |
| Tx:8.109 | this must be true if no effort is wasted. The very fact that one has | asked the Holy Spirit for anything will ensure a response. Yet it is |
| Tx:10.15 | You are | asked to trust the Holy Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is |
| Tx:10.83 | they do not share. Ask for truth of any Son of God, and you have | asked it of me. No one of us but has the answer in him, to give to |
| Tx:11.24 | I once | asked if you were willing to sell all you have and give to the poor |
| Tx:11.27 | therefore, who have made the request outrageous, for nothing can be | asked of you, and every request of a brother is for you. Why would |
| Tx:11.90 | upon yourselves and judge what you do honestly, as you have been | asked to do, you may be tempted to wonder how you can be guiltless. |
| Tx:12.20 | could not obtain it in your right minds. You were at peace until you | asked for special favor. And God did not give it, for the request was |
| Tx:12.21 | In peace he needed nothing and | asked for nothing. In war he demanded everything and found nothing. |
| Tx:12.44 | revealed. And all who would behold Him can see Him, for they have | asked for light. Nor will they see Him alone, for He is no more alone |
| Tx:13.70 | No penalty is ever | asked of God's Son except by himself and of himself. Every chance |
| Tx:14.29 | God has given Him to do. Leave that to Him Who knows. You are not | asked to do mighty tasks yourself. You are merely asked to do the |
| Tx:14.29 | knows. You are not asked to do mighty tasks yourself. You are merely | asked to do the little He suggests you do, trusting Him only to the |
| Tx:14.51 | You may wonder how you who are still bound to judgment can be | asked to do that which requires no judgment of your own. The answer |
| Tx:15.25 | world of littleness is a task the little cannot undertake. Yet it is | asked of you in tribute to your magnitude and not your littleness. |
| Tx:15.25 | you in tribute to your magnitude and not your littleness. Nor is it | asked of you alone. |
| Tx:15.26 | Son cannot be content with less than his Father has given him. We | asked you once before, “Would you be hostage to the ego or host to |
| Tx:15.26 | you be hostage to the ego or host to God?” Let this question be | asked you by the Holy Spirit in you every time you make a decision. |
| Tx:15.70 | but does not seem to be. For the guilty expect attack, and having | asked for it, they are attracted to it. |
| Tx:15.102 | He comes demanding nothing. No sacrifice of any kind of anyone is | asked by Him. In His Presence, the whole idea of sacrifice loses all |
| Tx:16.50 | “a union made in Heaven.” For neither one will recognize that he has | asked for hell, and so he will not interfere with the ego's illusion |
| Tx:17.75 | it encompass every situation and bring you peace. Not even faith is | asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it enter, and it will call |
| Tx:18.38 | is all. Add more and you will merely take away the little that is | asked. Remember you made guilt and that your plan for the escape from |
| Tx:18.64 | your sight, but it has not yet completely disappeared. You are not | asked to let this happen for more than an instant, yet it is in this |
| Tx:19.41 | still stands between you. Would you reinforce it now? You are not | asked to let it go for yourselves alone. Christ asks it of you for |
| Tx:19.43 | You have no purpose apart from each other nor apart from the one you | asked the Holy Spirit to share with you. The little wall will fall |
| Tx:19.49 | with messages written in the language in which their going forth was | asked. |
| Tx:19.64 | not glad that Heaven cannot be sacrificed, and sacrifice cannot be | asked of you? There is no obstacle which you can place before our |
| Tx:20.9 | with the body's eyes, and they can see but thorns. Yet you have | asked for and received another sight. Those who accept the Holy |
| Tx:20.11 | The Son of God looks unto you for his release. For you have | asked for and been given the strength to look upon this final |
| Tx:20.18 | not deciding first where they would have it be. Their looking merely | asked a question, and it was what they saw that answered them. You |
| Tx:20.23 | only thing in all the universe that does not know. Yet it is he you | asked, and it is to his answer that you would adjust. This one wild |
| Tx:20.24 | have given it power to adjust the world to make its answer true. You | asked this puff of madness for the meaning of your unholy |
| Tx:20.60 | To obtain the goal, the Holy Spirit indeed | asked little. He asks no more to give the means as well. The means |
| Tx:21.13 | We have repeated how little is | asked of you to learn this course. It is the same small willingness |
| Tx:21.15 | goal I would achieve. And everything that seems to happen to me, I | asked for and received as I had asked. |
| Tx:21.15 | that seems to happen to me, I asked for and received as I had | asked. |
| Tx:21.22 | would show you otherwise must therefore seem unreal. All that is | asked of you is to make room for truth. You are not asked to make or |
| Tx:21.22 | All that is asked of you is to make room for truth. You are not | asked to make or do what lies beyond your understanding. All you are |
| Tx:21.22 | asked to make or do what lies beyond your understanding. All you are | asked to do is let it in; only to stop your interference with what |
| Tx:21.58 | come very close to this. Faith and belief have shifted, and you have | asked the question which the ego will never ask. Does not your reason |
| Tx:21.83 | unsure the others have been answered? Could it be necessary they be | asked so often, if they had? Until the last decision has been made, |
| Tx:21.90 | because of your desire for what will never change. For you have | asked that nothing stand between the holiness of your relationship |
| Tx:22.58 | world released. This is your part in bringing peace. For you have | asked what is your function here and have been answered. Seek not to |
| Tx:23.24 | respond, believing it. It is not seen as even necessary that He be | asked about the truth of what has been established for His belief. |
| Tx:23.47 | enters, and what is all the same cannot conflict. You are not | asked to fight against your wish to murder. But you are asked to |
| Tx:23.47 | You are not asked to fight against your wish to murder. But you are | asked to realize the form it takes conceals the same intent. And it |
| Tx:24.3 | Hold back but one belief, one offering, and love is gone because you | asked a substitute to take its place. And now must war, the |
| Tx:24.60 | Now you are merely | asked that you pursue another goal with far less vigilance—with |
| Tx:24.60 | to the dedication to the truth as God established it no sacrifice is | asked, no strain called forth, and all the power of Heaven and the |
| Tx:25.64 | such a state of mind. But be you thankful that only little faith is | asked of you. What but a little faith remains to those who still |
| Tx:25.71 | in love believe in your confusion you have much to give? You are not | asked to trust Him far. No further than what you see He offers you |
| Tx:26.4 | the other. The memory of God must be denied if any sacrifice is | asked of anyone. What witness to the wholeness of God's Son is seen |
| Tx:26.87 | he be deprived of what he is, denied the right to be himself, and | asked to sacrifice his Father's love and yours as not his due? |
| Tx:27.38 | could be found. Nowhere outside a single simple question is ever | asked. The world can only ask a double question with many answers, |
| Tx:27.38 | to be answered, but only to restate its point of view. All questions | asked within this world are but a way of looking, not a question |
| Tx:27.38 | asked within this world are but a way of looking, not a question | asked. A question asked in hate cannot be answered, because it is an |
| Tx:27.38 | world are but a way of looking, not a question asked. A question | asked in hate cannot be answered, because it is an answer in itself. |
| Tx:27.41 | Only within the holy instant can an honest question honestly be | asked. And from the meaning of the question does the meaningfulness |
| Tx:27.42 | An honest answer asks no sacrifice because it answers questions truly | asked. The questions of the world but ask of whom is sacrifice |
| Tx:27.42 | enough to hear an answer which is not entailed within the question | asked. It offers something new and different from the question. How |
| Tx:27.47 | whispers, “What is there to fear?” Consider well its question. It is | asked of you on your behalf. A dying world asks only that you rest an |
| Tx:28.5 | of injustices and hurts which you were saving, this is what you | asked its message be, and this is what it is. Committed to its |
| Tx:28.20 | the victim in a dying body slain. But in forgiving dreams is no one | asked to be the victim and the sufferer. These are the happy dreams |
| Tx:28.35 | there. And they will meet with your invited Guests the miracle has | asked to come to you. |
| Tx:29.13 | Your Guest has come. You | asked Him, and He came. You did not hear Him enter, for you did not |
| Tx:29.17 | What, then, becomes of you, for it is you of whom the sacrifice is | asked? For He is told that part of Him belongs to Him no longer. He |
| Tx:29.18 | The body that is | asked to be a god will be attacked because its nothingness has not |
| Tx:29.19 | As “something” is the body | asked to be God's enemy, replacing what He is with littleness and |
| Tx:29.32 | Father's Son and not for any purpose you may see in him. Nothing is | asked of you but to accept the changeless and eternal that abide in |
| Tx:29.59 | answers, each depending on the one of whom the question has been | asked. The world believes in idols. No one comes unless he worshiped |
| Tx:30.11 | has occurred which is not part of it. Then realize that you have | asked a question by yourself and must have set an answer in your |
| Tx:30.31 | day you want you offer to the world, for it will be what you have | asked for and will reinforce the rule of your advisor in the world. |
| Tx:30.32 | understand that they cannot decide alone to guarantee the joy they | asked for will be wholly shared. For they have understood the basic |
| Tx:30.42 | of him away? What is not whole cannot make whole. But what is really | asked for cannot be denied. Your will is granted. Not in any form |
| Tx:30.55 | not there, and not to look upon the unreal as reality. You are but | asked to let your will be done and seek no longer for the things you |
| Tx:30.55 | done and seek no longer for the things you do not want. And you are | asked to let yourself be free of all the dreams of what you never |
| Tx:30.56 | without the toys of terror that you made. No more than this is | asked. Be glad indeed salvation asks so little, not so much. It asks |
| Tx:30.70 | For it is on this forgiveness rests and is but natural. You are not | asked to offer pardon where attack is due and would be justified. For |
| Tx:30.71 | attack that calls for punishment. Salvation does not lie in being | asked to make unnatural responses which are inappropriate to what is |
| Tx:30.71 | what has not occurred. If pardon were unjustified, you would be | asked to sacrifice your rights when you return forgiveness for |
| Tx:30.71 | rights when you return forgiveness for attack. But you are merely | asked to see forgiveness as the natural reaction to distress which |
| Tx:30.92 | the miracle cannot come forth from you consistently. For you have | asked it be withheld from power to heal all dreams. There is no |
| Tx:31.22 | the truth of what you really want. No more than this will you be | asked to learn. But as you hear it, you will understand you need but |
| Tx:31.32 | or yourself. For God has said there is no sacrifice that can be | asked; there is no sacrifice that can be made. |
| Tx:31.50 | to teach that you are something else. For otherwise you would be | asked to make exchange of what you now believe for total loss of |
| Tx:31.72 | you be willing that this happy change occur. No more than this is | asked. On its behalf, remember what the concept of yourself which now |
| W1:I.5 | others will seem quite startling. It does not matter. You are merely | asked to apply them to what you see. You are not asked to judge them |
| W1:I.5 | You are merely asked to apply them to what you see. You are not | asked to judge them nor even to believe them. You are asked only to |
| W1:I.5 | You are not asked to judge them nor even to believe them. You are | asked only to use them. It is their use which will give them meaning |
| W1:20.1 | required, and not even active cooperation and interest have been | asked. This casual approach has been intentional and very carefully |
| W1:20.3 | What you want is yours. Do not mistake the little effort that is | asked of you for a sign that our goal is of little worth. Can the |
| W1:23.9 | are exactly the same. You do not yet recognize this, and you are | asked at this time only to treat them as the same in today's practice |
| W1:27.2 | a great temptation to believe that some sort of sacrifice is being | asked of you when you say you want to see above all else. If you |
| W1:39.4 | Your holiness is the answer to every question that was ever | asked, is being asked now, or will be asked in the future. Your |
| W1:39.4 | is the answer to every question that was ever asked, is being | asked now, or will be asked in the future. Your holiness means the |
| W1:39.4 | every question that was ever asked, is being asked now, or will be | asked in the future. Your holiness means the end of guilt and |
| W1:63.2 | leave the Son of God in hell. This is no idle request that is being | asked of you. You are asked to accept salvation that it may be yours |
| W1:63.2 | in hell. This is no idle request that is being asked of you. You are | asked to accept salvation that it may be yours to give. |
| W1:77.5 | quietly for the assurance that your request is granted. You have | asked for the salvation of the world and for your own. You have |
| W1:78.10 | mind be shown the light in him beyond your grievances. What you have | asked for cannot be denied. Your savior has been waiting long for |
| W1:98.6 | of complete success. And since time has no meaning, you are being | asked for nothing in return for everything. Here is a bargain that |
| W1:100.8 | idea contains. Then realize your part is to be happy. Only this is | asked of you or anyone who wants to take his place among God's |
| W1:100.8 | means. You have indeed been wrong in your belief that sacrifice is | asked. You but receive according to God's plan and never lose or |
| W1:108.12 | gave it. You will find you have exact return, for this is what you | asked. It might be helpful, too, to think of one to whom to give your |
| W1:R3.3 | because you are unwilling to devote the time to it which you are | asked to give. Do not deceive yourself in this. Unwillingness can be |
| W1:134.2 | is easily corrected when you can accept the fact that pardon is not | asked for what is true. It must be limited to what is false. It is |
| W1:139.7 | yourself and not to be aware of what you are. Only acceptance can be | asked of you, for what you are is certain. It is set forever in the |
| W1:139.9 | way rejoicing in the endless Love of God. It is but this that we are | asked to do. It is but this that we will do today. |
| W1:155.4 | demanded they give up the world, it would appear to them as if it | asked the sacrifice of something that is real. Many have chosen to |
| W1:156.8 | “Who walks with me?” This question should be | asked a thousand times a day, till certainty has ended doubting and |
| W1:160.3 | for not saying this? What could the reason be except that you had | asked this stranger in to take your place and let you be a stranger |
| W1:160.6 | now. The miracle will come. For in his home his Self remains. It | asked no stranger in and took no alien thought to be Itself. And It |
| W1:I2.1 | strong, your scattered goals blend into one intent. You are not | asked for total dedication all the time, as yet. But you are asked to |
| W1:I2.1 | are not asked for total dedication all the time, as yet. But you are | asked to practice now in order to attain the sense of peace such |
| W1:I2.3 | past all defenses for a little while each day. No more than this is | asked because no more than this is needed. It will be enough to |
| W1:184.9 | It would indeed be strange if you were | asked to go beyond all symbols of the world, forgetting them forever; |
| W1:184.9 | beyond all symbols of the world, forgetting them forever; yet were | asked to take a teaching function. You have need to use the symbols |
| W1:185.9 | And being one, one question should be | asked of all of them: “Is this what I would have, in place of Heaven |
| W1:185.9 | compromise is possible in this. You choose God's peace, or you have | asked for dreams. And dreams will come as you requested them. Yet |

| Tx:4.53 | unequivocal call. Watch carefully and see what it is you are really | asking for. Be very honest with yourself about this, for we must hide |

| Tx:9.12 | The ego, too, has a plan of forgiveness because you are | asking for one, though not of the right teacher. The ego's plan, of |

| Tx:10.83 | His answer is the release from fear. Beautiful Child of God, you are | asking only for what I promised you. Do you believe I would deceive |

| Tx:17.45 | Holy Spirit wastes no time in introducing the practical results of | asking Him to enter. At once His goal replaces yours. This is |
| Tx:18.59 | and would not limit it. You have escaped from fear to peace, | asking no questions of reality but merely accepting it. You have |

| W1:71.10 | let us devote the remainder of the extended practice periods to | asking God to reveal His plan to us. Ask Him very specifically: |
| W1:72.15 | We are no longer | asking the ego what salvation is and where to find it. We are asking |
| W1:72.15 | longer asking the ego what salvation is and where to find it. We are | asking it of truth. Be certain, then, that the answer will be true |
| W1:72.15 | out, repeat your question and your request, remembering that you are | asking them of the infinite Creator of infinity, Who created you like |
| W1:77.4 | to miracles. Closing your eyes, remind yourself that you are | asking only for what is rightfully yours. Remind yourself also that |
| W1:77.4 | miracles are never taken from one and given to another and that in | asking for your rights you are upholding the rights of everyone. |
| W1:77.5 | is accomplished. You cannot fail to be assured in this. You are but | asking that the Will of God be done. In doing this, you do not really |
| W1:77.6 | must be so. There is no room for doubt and uncertainty today. We are | asking a real question at last. The answer is a simple statement of a |
| W1:92.10 | we will practice seeing in the light, closing the body's eyes and | asking truth to show us how to find the meeting place of self and |
| W1:94.6 | promised that it will be revealed to all who ask for it. You are | asking now. You cannot fail because He cannot fail. |
| W1:107.10 | Begin by | asking Him Who goes with you upon this undertaking that He be in your |
| W1:109.1 | danger and on sorrow. And we have the thought that will answer our | asking with what we request. |
| W1:110.8 | saved, with power to save whoever touches Him however lightly, | asking for the Word that tells him he is brother unto Him. |
| W1:130.8 | Begin your searching for the other world by | asking for a strength beyond your own, and recognize what it is you |
| W1:157.4 | wills. And having joined your will with His this day, what you are | asking must be given you. Nothing is needed but today's idea to light |
| W1:159.6 | All are laid here already. All can be received but for the | asking. Here the door is never locked, and no one is denied his least |

| W1:200.2 | no more to win through losing, nor to die to live. You cannot but be | asking for defeat. |
| W2:I.7 | promises be kept which are Your will to keep. We will with You in | asking this. The Father and the Son, Whose holy will created all that |
| W2:306.2 | thankfulness, we come, with empty hands and open hearts and minds, | asking but what You give. We cannot make an offering sufficient for |
| W2:WAI.4 | from the oneness that we have attained we call to all our brothers, | asking them to share our peace and consummate our joy. |
| W2:E.3 | to do, how to direct your mind, and when to come to Him in silence, | asking for His sure direction and His certain Word. His is the Word |
| M:13.5 | idea of sacrifice that makes him blind. He does not see what he is | asking for. And so he seeks it in a thousand ways and in a thousand |
| M:21.1 | play no part at all in healing. The motivating factor is prayer, or | asking. What you ask for, you receive. But this refers to the prayer |

| Tx:4.1 | The Bible says that you should go with a brother twice as far as he | asks. It certainly does not suggest that you set him back on his |
| Tx:4.51 | yours for Him. He has never failed to answer this request because it | asks only for what He has already willed. Those who call truly are |
| Tx:4.72 | Therefore the mind | asks, “Where can I go for protection?” to which the ego replies, |
| Tx:5.9 | this as a blessing. It is the blessing of miracle-mindedness. It | asks that you may think as I thought, joining with me in |
| Tx:5.19 | and that one is not of God. But the other is given you by God Who | asks you only to listen to it. The Holy Spirit is in you in a very |
| Tx:5.91 | You are merely asked to return to God the mind as He created it. He | asks you only for what He gave, knowing that this giving will heal |
| Tx:5.92 | Voice of God Himself is in you? God commended His Spirit to you and | asks that you commend yours to Him. He wills to keep it in perfect |
| Tx:7.103 | mean except that you want to be fearful? The Holy Spirit never | asks for sacrifice, but the ego always does. When you are confused |
| Tx:8.2 | you would hardly be willing to throw it away so readily when the ego | asks for your allegiance. The distraction of the ego seems to |
| Tx:8.80 | is. The ego does not know what a real question is, although it | asks an endless number. Yet you can learn this as you learn to |
| Tx:8.108 | the state of healing is. It frequently happens that an individual | asks for physical healing because he is fearful of bodily harm. At |
| Tx:10.83 | of me. No one of us but has the answer in him, to give to anyone who | asks it of him. Ask anything of God's Son and His Father will answer |
| Tx:11.26 | it. Remember that those who attack are poor. Their poverty | asks for gifts, not for further impoverishment. You who could help |
| Tx:11.78 | Father's love holds him in perfect peace, and needing nothing, he | asks for nothing. Yet he is far from you whose Self he is, for you |
| Tx:14.29 | do, trusting Him only to the small extent of believing that if He | asks it, you can do it. You will see how easily all that He asks can |
| Tx:14.29 | if He asks it, you can do it. You will see how easily all that He | asks can be accomplished. |
| Tx:14.30 | The Holy Spirit | asks of you but this—bring to Him every secret you have locked away |
| Tx:15.12 | not give so short a time to the Holy Spirit for your salvation? He | asks no more, for He has no need of more. It takes far longer to |
| Tx:15.65 | only love that is fully given and fully returned. Being complete, it | asks nothing. Being wholly pure, everyone joined in it has |
| Tx:15.83 | of the Source of the attempt, it will succeed. The Holy Spirit | asks you to respond as God does, for He would teach you what you do |
| Tx:16.7 | substitute your “miracle” for this. We once said that if a brother | asks a foolish thing of you, to do it. But be certain that this does |
| Tx:16.19 | There is no greater love than to accept this and be glad. For love | asks only that you be happy and will give you everything that makes |
| Tx:16.60 | to find you and comfort you. There is a way in which the Holy Spirit | asks your help if you would have His. The holy instant is His most |
| Tx:16.69 | The Holy Spirit | asks only this little help of you. Whenever your thoughts wander to a |
| Tx:17.49 | Can you deny that He has given you a most explicit statement? Now He | asks for faith a little longer, even in bewilderment. For this will |
| Tx:17.75 | This simple courtesy is all the Holy Spirit | asks of you. Let truth be what it is. Do not intrude upon it, do not |
| Tx:17.75 | and bring you peace. Not even faith is asked of you, for truth | asks nothing. Let it enter, and it will call forth and secure for you |
| Tx:18.32 | not ask, or you will add the ego unto Him and confuse the two. He | asks but little. It is He who adds the greatness and the might. He |
| Tx:18.38 | is release. Do not assume His function for Him. Give Him but what He | asks, that you may learn how little is your part and how great is His. |
| Tx:18.39 | that you need understand nothing. Salvation is easy just because it | asks nothing that you cannot give right now. |
| Tx:19.38 | you see outside you, but of this you can be sure: the Holy Spirit | asks that you offer Him a resting-place where you will rest in Him. |
| Tx:19.39 | The gratitude you owe to Him He | asks but that you receive for Him. And when you look with gentle |
| Tx:19.41 | it now? You are not asked to let it go for yourselves alone. Christ | asks it of you for Himself. He would bring peace to everyone, and how |
| Tx:19.62 | bring you fear of pain. Pain is the only “sacrifice” the Holy Spirit | asks, and this He would remove. |
| Tx:20.58 | requires almost nothing of you. It is impossible to imagine one that | asks so little or could offer more. |
| Tx:20.60 | To obtain the goal, the Holy Spirit indeed asked little. He | asks no more to give the means as well. The means are second to the |
| Tx:21.37 | Those who believe in sin must think the Holy Spirit | asks for sacrifice, for this is how they think their purpose is |
| Tx:21.43 | within and saw no sin? This “fearful” question is one the ego never | asks. And you who ask it now are threatening the ego's whole |
| Tx:21.82 | In content, all the questions are the same. For each one | asks if you are willing to exchange the world of sin for what the |
| Tx:21.88 | some promise of the power of giving it. He may be wrong in what he | asks, where, and of what. Yet he will ask because desire is a |

| Tx:24.30 | God | asks for your forgiveness. He would have no separation, like an alien |
| Tx:24.33 | of nails upon his hands that he holds out for your forgiveness. God | asks your mercy on His Son and on Himself. Deny them not. They ask of |
| Tx:24.37 | has ever been in them that you would keep the gift your Father | asks from Him and give it there instead? Given to Him, the universe |
| Tx:25.40 | The Son of God | asks only this of you—that you return to him what is his due that |
| Tx:25.74 | For just one witness is enough if he sees truly. Simple justice | asks no more. Of each one does the Holy Spirit ask if he will be that |
| Tx:25.80 | be one in which no one loses. And this must be true because He | asks no sacrifice of anyone. An answer which demands the slightest |
| Tx:26.48 | Guilt | asks for punishment, and its request is granted—not in truth but in |
| Tx:26.56 | Salvation, perfect and complete, | asks but a little wish that what is true be true; a little |
| Tx:26.74 | is a sacrifice of now, which could not be the cost the Holy Spirit | asks for what He gave without a cost at all. |
| Tx:27.38 | be answered, because it is an answer in itself. A double question | asks and answers, both attesting the same thing in different form. |
| Tx:27.39 | The world | asks but one question. It is this: “Of these illusions, which of them |
| Tx:27.39 | made?” Whatever form the question takes, its purpose is the same. It | asks but to establish sin is real and answers in the form of |
| Tx:27.40 | A pseudo-question has no answer. It dictates the answer even as it | asks. Thus is all questioning within the world a form of propaganda |
| Tx:27.41 | An honest question is a learning tool which | asks for something that you do not know. It does not set conditions |
| Tx:27.41 | you do not know. It does not set conditions for response, but merely | asks what the response should be. But no one in a conflict state is |
| Tx:27.42 | An honest answer | asks no sacrifice because it answers questions truly asked. The |
| Tx:27.47 | well its question. It is asked of you on your behalf. A dying world | asks only that you rest an instant from attack upon yourself, that it |
| Tx:28.60 | God | asks for nothing, and His Son, like Him, need ask for nothing. For |
| Tx:29.7 | It is not love that | asks a sacrifice. But fear demands the sacrifice of love, for in |
| Tx:29.13 | And yet His gifts came with Him. He has laid them at your feet and | asks you now that you will look on them and take them for your own. |
| Tx:29.17 | demand that it be more than this lies the idea of sickness. For it | asks that God be less than all He really is. What, then, becomes of |
| Tx:29.30 | you assigned to him in what you dream your life was meant to be. He | asks for help in every dream he has, and you have help to give him if |
| Tx:29.34 | There is no gift the Father | asks of you but that you see in all creation but the shining glory of |
| Tx:29.38 | and of murder, grief and loss. This is the “sacrifice” salvation | asks and gladly offers peace instead of this. |
| Tx:30.14 | answered in a different way from what your version of the question | asks will gain momentum until you believe the day you want is one in |
| Tx:30.33 | knowledge, saved for you that you may do your will through Him. God | asks you do your will. He joins with you. He did not set His Kingdom |
| Tx:30.33 | but waited for your blessing to be born. God is no enemy to you. He | asks no more than that He hear you call Him “Friend.” |
| Tx:30.55 | is a paradox indeed! What could it be except a happy dream? It | asks you but that you forgive all things that no one ever did, to |
| Tx:30.56 | that you made. No more than this is asked. Be glad indeed salvation | asks so little, not so much. It asks for nothing in reality. And even |
| Tx:30.56 | is asked. Be glad indeed salvation asks so little, not so much. It | asks for nothing in reality. And even in illusions it but asks |
| Tx:30.56 | much. It asks for nothing in reality. And even in illusions it but | asks forgiveness be the substitute for fear. Such is the only rule |
| Tx:30.71 | which are inappropriate to what is real. Instead, it merely | asks that you respond appropriately to what is not real by not |
| Tx:31.2 | But confuse it not with difficulty in the simple things salvation | asks you learn. It teaches but the very obvious. It merely goes from |
| Tx:31.24 | happen. And you will perceive his purpose is the same as yours. He | asks for what you want and needs the same as you. It takes perhaps a |
| Tx:31.24 | a different form in him, but it is not the form you answer to. He | asks and you receive, for you have come with but one purpose—that |
| Tx:31.53 | The Holy Spirit does not seek to throw you into panic. So He merely | asks if just a little question might be raised. |
| Tx:31.64 | ask that you behold the Spirit and perceive the body not. It merely | asks that this should be your choice. For you can see the body |
| Tx:31.80 | judge because it does not know. And recognizing this, it merely | asks, “What is the meaning of what I behold?” Then is the answer |
| Tx:31.80 | the door held open for the face of Christ to shine upon the one who | asks in innocence to see beyond the veil of old ideas and ancient |
| Tx:31.82 | be tempted not to listen when you learn that it is you for whom He | asks release? And what but this is what this course would teach? And |
| W1:92.6 | and peace for everyone. It gives its strength to everyone who | asks, in limitless supply. It sees that lack in anyone would be a |
| W1:96.17 | treasure in your growing store. And all of it is given everyone who | asks for it and will accept the gift. Think, then, how much is given |
| W1:97.5 | His Voice to every living thing; offers His sight to everyone who | asks; replaces error with the simple truth. |
| W1:100.6 | and all the world is thus deprived of joy along with you. God | asks that you be happy so the world can see how much He loves His Son |
| W1:101.1 | key idea in understanding what salvation means. You still believe it | asks for suffering as penance for your “sins.” This is not so. Yet |
| W1:126.7 | Not having given Him the gift He | asks of you, you cannot recognize His gifts and think He has not |
| W1:131.11 | No one can fail who | asks to reach the truth, and it is truth we ask to reach today. We |
| W1:131.15 | But before you try to open it, remind yourself no one can fail who | asks to reach the truth, and it is this request you make today. |
| W1:131.19 | that I want. My single purpose offers it to me. No one can fail who | asks to reach the truth. |
| W1:135.26 | why you ever thought that you must be defended from release. Heaven | asks nothing. It is hell that makes extravagant demands for |
| W1:136.10 | Thus is the body stronger than the truth, which | asks you live but cannot overcome your choice to die. And so the body |
| W1:137.10 | His life becomes your own as you extend the little help He | asks in freeing you from everything that ever caused you pain. And as |
| W1:139.4 | Yet he could never be alive at all unless he knew the answer. If he | asks as if he did not know, it merely shows he does not want to be |

| W1:146.1 | [131] No one can fail who | asks to reach the truth. |
| W1:155.8 | Such is salvation's call, and nothing more. It | asks that you accept the truth, and let it go before you, lighting up |
| W1:155.14 | And now He | asks but that you think of Him a while each day that He may speak to |
| W1:158.5 | is not lost because He has a vision He can give to anyone who | asks. The Father's Will and His are joined in knowledge. Yet there is |
| W1:159.7 | home where his salvation waits. No one is stranger to him. No one | asks for anything of him except the gift of his acceptance of his |
| W1:168.2 | by your acknowledgment. And memory of Him awakens in the mind which | asks the means of Him whereby its sleep is done. |
| W1:168.7 | I claim it now. Father, I come to You. And You will come to me who | asks. I am the Son You love. |
| W1:182.9 | strength to them that they may see He would be Friend to them. He | asks but they protect Him, for His home is far away, and He will not |

| Tx:19.30 | You see the line as broken, and as you shift to different | aspects of the spiral, the line looks different. Yet in your mind is |
| Tx:19.37 | seem to arise from elsewhere—from your brothers and from various | aspects of the world outside. Yet peace will gently cover them, |
| Tx:22.17 | All that is possible in the dark world of misery is to select some | aspects out of it, see them as different, and define the difference |
| Tx:23.23 | And their relationship is one of opposition, just as the separate | aspects of the Son meet only to conflict but not to join. One becomes |
| Tx:24.72 | It is this that joins them to their like and separates each from all | aspects with a different purpose. The Son of God retains His Father's |
| Tx:25.4 | unto Himself; nor are any differences perceived to stand between the | aspects of His holiness, which meet and join and raise Him to His |
| Tx:26.10 | solved in just the same respect and through the same approach. The | aspects which need solving do not change, whatever form the problem |
| Tx:30.83 | which these labels change with other judgments made on different | aspects of experience. And then in looking back you think you see |
| W1:31.1 | with changes as indicated. Generally speaking, the form includes two | aspects, one in which you apply the idea on a more sustained basis, |
| W1:33.1 | can shift your perception of the world in both its outer and inner | aspects. A full five minutes should be devoted to the morning and |
| W1:35.5 | will probably emphasize what you consider to be the more negative | aspects of your perception of yourself. Toward the latter part of the |
| W1:44.1 | coexist, but light and life must go together, being but different | aspects of creation. |

| W1:108.4 | Here are both giving and receiving seen as different | aspects of one Thought Whose truth does not depend on which is seen |
| W1:128.5 | we have given to the world. We leave it free of purposes we gave its | aspects and its phases and its dreams. We hold it purposeless within |
| W1:139.13 | all creation, in the name of its Creator and His oneness with all | aspects of creation, we repeat our dedication to our cause today each |
| W1:151.11 | the elements in them that represent the truth and disregard those | aspects which reflect but idle dreams. And He will reinterpret all |
| W1:152.4 | to be entirely your own. And thus the truth appears to have some | aspects that belie consistency but do not seem to be but |
| W1:184.13 | One Name for all reality, and realize the many names you gave its | aspects have distorted what you see but have not interfered with |
| M:4.21 | of his advancement in the curriculum. Does he still select some | aspects of his life to bring to his learning while keeping others |
| M:16.10 | that it is meaningless. Rooted in sacrifice and separation, two | aspects of one error and no more, he merely chooses to give up all |
| M:24.4 | time, draining it away from its appointed purpose. If there are | aspects to any concept or belief that will be helpful, he will be |

| Tx:2.39 | in their right minds, they turned their defenses from protection to | assault and acted literally insanely. It was essential to introduce a |

| Tx:5.78 | completion of the Kingdom, but you cannot introduce the concept of | assault into it. |
| Tx:6.6 | they have done to themselves. Projection means anger, anger fosters | assault, and assault promotes fear. The real meaning of the |
| Tx:6.6 | to themselves. Projection means anger, anger fosters assault, and | assault promotes fear. The real meaning of the crucifixion lies in |
| Tx:6.6 | meaning of the crucifixion lies in the apparent intensity of the | assault of some of the Sons of God upon another. This, of course, is |

| Tx:1.88 | contributions to the Sonship will no longer be necessary. When the | Atonement has been completed, all talents will be shared by all the |
| Tx:1.96 | inevitable that they will extend them to others, a strong chain of | Atonement is welded. However, Christ-control takes no account at all |
| Tx:1.106 | you that you are now restored to your former role in the plan of | Atonement, but you must still choose freely to devote yourselves to |
| Tx:2.15 | from fear. The escape is brought about by his acceptance of the | Atonement, which places him in a position to realize that his own |
| Tx:2.23 | out of false denial, not out of its proper use. My own role in the | Atonement is one of true projection; I can project to you the |
| Tx:2.36 | The | Atonement is the only defense which cannot be used destructively. |
| Tx:2.36 | join it, it is not a device which was generated by man. The | Atonement principle was in effect long before the Atonement itself |
| Tx:2.36 | by man. The Atonement principle was in effect long before the | Atonement itself began. The principle was love, and the Atonement |
| Tx:2.36 | before the Atonement itself began. The principle was love, and the | Atonement itself was an act of love. Acts were not necessary before |
| Tx:2.36 | did not exist. It was only after the separation that the defense of | Atonement and the necessary conditions for its fulfillment were |
| Tx:2.37 | which is the inherent characteristic of all other defenses. The | Atonement thus becomes the only defense which is not a two-edged |
| Tx:2.38 | The | Atonement actually began long before the crucifixion. Many Souls |
| Tx:2.39 | device which could be used only to heal, if it were used at all. The | Atonement was built into the space-time belief in order to set a |
| Tx:2.39 | need for the belief and ultimately to make learning complete. The | Atonement is the final lesson. Learning itself, like the classrooms |
| Tx:2.41 | The | Atonement is the device by which he can free himself from the past as |
| Tx:2.41 | his steps without advancing to his return. In this sense the | Atonement saves time but, like the miracle which serves it, does not |
| Tx:2.41 | which serves it, does not abolish it. As long as there is need for | Atonement, there is need for time. But the Atonement as a completed |
| Tx:2.41 | long as there is need for Atonement, there is need for time. But the | Atonement as a completed plan does have a unique relationship to |
| Tx:2.41 | a completed plan does have a unique relationship to time. Until the | Atonement is finished, its various phases will proceed in time, but |
| Tx:2.41 | is finished, its various phases will proceed in time, but the whole | Atonement stands at time's end. At this point, the bridge of the |
| Tx:2.42 | The | Atonement is a total commitment. You still think this is associated |
| Tx:2.43 | The miracle turns the defense of | Atonement to the protection of the inner self, which, as it becomes |
| Tx:2.43 | much stronger and much more dependable. They no longer oppose the | Atonement but greatly facilitate it. |
| Tx:2.44 | The | Atonement can only be accepted within you. You have perceived it |
| Tx:2.44 | have been used almost entirely to defend himself against the | Atonement and thus maintain the separation. They themselves generally |
| Tx:2.45 | but not all of it. It does recognize, however, that the concept of | Atonement in physical terms is not appropriate. However, the next |
| Tx:2.45 | have put on beautiful church buildings is a sign of their fear of | Atonement and their unwillingness to reach the altar itself. The real |
| Tx:2.46 | For perfect effectiveness, the | Atonement belongs at the center of the inner altar, where it undoes |
| Tx:2.46 | of the building but the opening of the altar to receive the | Atonement. This heals the separation and places within man the one |
| Tx:2.47 | The acceptance of the | Atonement by everyone is only a matter of time. In fact, both time |
| Tx:2.49 | The Spiritual eye literally cannot see error and merely looks for | Atonement. All the solutions which the physical eyes seek dissolve in |
| Tx:2.51 | The | Atonement is the only gift that is worthy of being offered to the |
| Tx:2.51 | to perceive the world as a means of healing the separation. The | Atonement is the guarantee that they will ultimately succeed. |
| Tx:2.52 | The emphasis will now be on healing. The miracle is the means, the | Atonement is the principle, and healing is the result. Those who |
| Tx:2.52 | two orders of reality inappropriately. Healing is not a miracle. The | Atonement or the final miracle is a remedy, while any type of healing |
| Tx:2.52 | while any type of healing is a result. The kind of error to which | Atonement is applied is irrelevant. Essentially, all healing is the |
| Tx:2.53 | A major step in the | Atonement plan is to undo error at all levels. Illness, which is |
| Tx:2.56 | The body, if properly understood, shares the invulnerability of the | Atonement to two-edged application. This is not because the body is a |
| Tx:2.57 | great hold over a mind to render a person inaccessible to | Atonement. In this case it may be wise to utilize a compromise |
| Tx:2.59 | The value of the | Atonement does not lie in the manner in which it is expressed. In |
| Tx:2.64 | of not-right-mindedness are the result of refusal to accept the | Atonement for yourself. If the miracle worker does accept it, he |
| Tx:2.65 | The sole responsibility of the miracle worker is to accept the | Atonement for himself. This means that he recognizes that mind is the |
| Tx:2.65 | is the only creative level and that its errors are healed by the | Atonement. Once he accepts this, his mind can only heal. By denying |
| Tx:2.67 | see error and is capable only of looking beyond it to the defense of | Atonement. There is no doubt that the Spiritual eye does produce |
| Tx:2.67 | the defilement of the altar, it also looks immediately toward the | Atonement. |
| Tx:2.70 | in time. Since his own thinking is faulty, he cannot see the | Atonement for himself or he would have no need for charity. The |
| Tx:2.82 | a series of pragmatic steps in the larger process of accepting the | Atonement as the remedy. These steps can be summarized as follows: |
| Tx:2.86 | 4. Perfect love is the | Atonement. |
| Tx:2.87 | We have emphasized that the miracle, or the expression of | Atonement, is always a sign of real respect from the worthy to the |
| Tx:2.87 | from the worthy to the worthy. This worth is re-established by the | Atonement. It is obvious, then, that when you are afraid you have |
| Tx:2.87 | you are afraid you have placed yourself in a position where you need | Atonement, because you have done something loveless, having willed |
| Tx:2.87 | willed without love. This is precisely the situation for which the | Atonement was offered. The need for the remedy inspired its creation. |
| Tx:2.99 | is mandatory. This establishes a state of mind in which the | Atonement can be accepted without delay. |
| Tx:2.103 | in the existence of nothingness. The correction of this error is the | Atonement. We have already briefly spoken about readiness, but there |
| Tx:2.111 | is no reason for fear to remain with him. This is his part in the | Atonement. |
| Tx:3.2 | of your Creator. I have been careful to clarify my own role in the | Atonement, without either over- or understating it. I have also tried |
| Tx:3.11 | becomes entirely groundless. The crucifixion did not establish the | Atonement. The resurrection did. This is a point which many very |
| Tx:3.14 | was not punished because you were bad. The wholly benign lesson the | Atonement teaches is lost if it is tainted with this kind of |
| Tx:3.17 | God Himself is not symbolic; He is fact. The | Atonement too is totally without symbolism. It is perfectly clear |
| Tx:3.17 | to the unwilling and ambiguous to the partly willing. The | Atonement itself radiates nothing but truth. It therefore epitomizes |
| Tx:3.18 | any form of evil because light abolishes all forms of darkness. The | Atonement is thus the perfect lesson. It is the final demonstration |
| Tx:3.20 | of defending themselves against it. Understanding the lesson of the | Atonement, they are without the will to attack, and therefore they |
| Tx:3.24 | the state of innocence, or grace, is one in which the meaning of the | Atonement is perfectly apparent. The innocence of God is the true |
| Tx:3.24 | does see God [and because] he sees Him as he is[, he knows] that the | Atonement, not sacrifice, is the only appropriate gift to His own |
| Tx:3.49 | your choice is certain. Sane perception induces sane choosing. The | Atonement was an act based on true perception. I cannot choose for |
| Tx:3.60 | rests on lack, those who perceive have not totally accepted the | Atonement and given themselves over to truth. Perception is a |
| Tx:4.41 | what else but you is His Kingdom? This is the whole message of the | Atonement, a message which in its totality transcends the sum of its |
| Tx:4.61 | God, but you have not. Leave the sins of the ego to me. That is what | Atonement is for. But until you change your mind about those your ego |
| Tx:4.61 | But until you change your mind about those your ego has hurt, the | Atonement cannot release you. As long as you feel guilty, your ego is |
| Tx:4.89 | wrongly. The Holy One shares my trust and always approves my | Atonement decisions because my will is never out of accord with His. |
| Tx:4.89 | with His. I have told you before that I am in charge of the whole | Atonement. This is only because I completed my part in it as a man |
| Tx:5.11 | with the separation as a protection, inspiring the beginning of the | Atonement at the same time. Before that, there was no need for |
| Tx:5.12 | could reach almost back to Him. The Holy Spirit is the Mind of the | Atonement. It represents a state of mind that comes close enough to |
| Tx:5.18 | Spirit was God's Answer to the separation, the means by which the | Atonement could repair until the whole mind returned to creating. |
| Tx:5.19 | The | Atonement and the separation began at the same time. When man made |
| Tx:5.20 | as they are as Souls. The Voice of the Holy Spirit is the call to | Atonement or the restoration of the integrity of the mind. When the |
| Tx:5.20 | Atonement or the restoration of the integrity of the mind. When the | Atonement is complete and the whole Sonship is healed, there will be |
| Tx:5.46 | Joining the | Atonement, which I have repeatedly asked you to do, is always a way |
| Tx:5.47 | The | Atonement is the guarantee of the safety of the Kingdom. Nothing good |
| Tx:5.48 | and for asking pardon without change. The ego never calls for real | Atonement and cannot tolerate forgiveness, which is change. |
| Tx:5.49 | “healthy guilt feelings” has merit, but without the concept of the | Atonement, it lacks the healing potential it holds. You made the |
| Tx:5.50 | remedy. The remedy is not of your making, any more than you are. The | Atonement cannot be understood except as a pure act of sharing. That |
| Tx:5.55 | My part in the | Atonement is not complete until you join it and give it away. As you |
| Tx:5.57 | The | Atonement gives you the power of a healed mind, but the power to |
| Tx:5.59 | there is no guilt, because the Kingdom is attained through the | Atonement, which releases you to create. The word “create” is |
| Tx:5.68 | If the sole responsibility of the miracle worker is to accept the | Atonement for himself, and I assure you that it is, then the |
| Tx:5.69 | your wrong thinking if it could not be undone. The purpose of the | Atonement is to save the past in purified form only. If you accept |
| Tx:5.70 | it can turn it back to full creation at any minute if it accepts the | Atonement first. It will also turn back to full creation the instant |
| Tx:5.92 | you are of one mind and spirit with Him. Excluding yourself from the | Atonement is the ego's last-ditch defense of its own existence. It |
| Tx:5.95 | to the point at which the error was made and give it over to the | Atonement in peace. Say to yourselves the following as sincerely as |
| Tx:6.3 | You have been chosen to teach the | Atonement precisely because you have been extreme examples of |
| Tx:6.20 | the several slips into impatience which I made. I had learned the | Atonement prayer, which I also came to teach, too well to engage in |
| Tx:6.29 | equality, the Holy Spirit perceives equal needs. This invites | Atonement automatically, because Atonement is the one need which in |
| Tx:6.29 | perceives equal needs. This invites Atonement automatically, because | Atonement is the one need which in this world is universal. To |
| Tx:6.34 | only perceive it as it is to be returned. The full awareness of the | Atonement, then, is the recognition that the separation never |
| Tx:7.90 | the unbelievable cannot make this judgment alone. By accepting the | Atonement for yourself, you are deciding against the belief that you |
| Tx:8.5 | it means that you did not get what you want. The curriculum of the | Atonement is the opposite of the curriculum you have established for |
| Tx:8.22 | because once you have really done this, you will accept the | Atonement for yourself. What other choice could you make? Having made |
| Tx:9.7 | in you and in your brother. His errors are forgiven with yours. | Atonement is no more separate than love. Atonement cannot be |
| Tx:9.7 | are forgiven with yours. Atonement is no more separate than love. | Atonement cannot be separate, because it comes from love. Any attempt |
| Tx:9.9 | Atonement is for all, because it is the way to undo the belief that | |
| Tx:9.10 | You have a part to play in the | Atonement, but the plan of the Atonement is beyond you. You do not |
| Tx:9.10 | You have a part to play in the Atonement, but the plan of the | Atonement is beyond you. You do not know how to overlook errors, or |
| Tx:9.11 | The | Atonement is a lesson in sharing, which is given you because you have |
| Tx:9.39 | you so decide. Yet you cannot abide in peace unless you accept the | Atonement, because the Atonement is the way to peace. The reason is |
| Tx:9.39 | cannot abide in peace unless you accept the Atonement, because the | Atonement is the way to peace. The reason is very simple and so |
| Tx:11.35 | have defiled the altar but not the world. Yet Christ has placed the | Atonement on the altar for you. Bring your perceptions of the world |
| Tx:11.42 | The | Atonement was not the price of our wholeness, but it was the price of |
| Tx:11.61 | world. For in this holy perception, you will be made whole, and the | Atonement will radiate from your acceptance of it for yourself to |
| Tx:11.84 | it gives place to knowledge, which is forever the only reality. The | Atonement is but the way back to what was never lost. Your Father |
| Tx:11.86 | Son was the beginning of the separation, as the acceptance of the | Atonement is its end. The world you see is the delusional system of |
| Tx:11.88 | love. He cannot be condemned because he has never condemned. The | Atonement is the final lesson he need learn, for it teaches him that, |
| Tx:11.94 | When you have accepted the | Atonement for yourselves, you will realize that there is no guilt in |
| Tx:11.97 | Accepting the | Atonement teaches you what immortality is, for by accepting your |
| Tx:11.98 | plan, which it offers instead of dispelling it. The ego believes in | atonement through attack, being fully committed to the insane notion |
| Tx:12.8 | The | Atonement has always been interpreted as the release from guilt, and |
| Tx:12.10 | more complication which you have interposed between yourself and the | Atonement, which you do not yet realize. We have said that no one |
| Tx:13.11 | past, the laws of God must intervene if you would free yourselves. | Atonement stands between them like a lamp that shines so brightly |
| Tx:13.14 | Atonement brings a re-evaluation of everything you cherish, for it is | |
| Tx:13.16 | would have the Holy Spirit make you free of it, accept His offer of | Atonement for all your brothers. For so you learn that it is true for |
| Tx:13.17 | you fear is gone. If you would look within, you would see only the | Atonement, shining in quiet and in peace upon the altar to your |
| Tx:13.24 | to free you from the past and give your mind in peace over to the | Atonement. When everyone is welcome to you as you would have yourself |
| Tx:13.24 | Father, you will see no guilt in you. For you will have accepted the | Atonement, which shone within you all the while you dreamed of guilt |
| Tx:13.25 | he may do, you will not look within, where you would always find | Atonement. The end of guilt will never come as long as you believe |
| Tx:13.25 | The Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. If guilt were real, | Atonement would not be. The purpose of Atonement is to dispel |
| Tx:13.25 | reality. If guilt were real, Atonement would not be. The purpose of | Atonement is to dispel illusions, not to establish them as real and |
| Tx:13.27 | and wholly without reason, you will not fear to look upon the | Atonement and accept it wholly. |
| Tx:13.49 | is complete forgiveness, you must have let guilt go, accepting the | Atonement for yourself and learning you are guiltless. How could you |
| Tx:13.67 | I have nothing to fear. I choose to testify to my acceptance of the | Atonement, not for its rejection. I would accept my guiltlessness by |
| Tx:13.71 | and by refusing to allow him to think he can, you teach him that the | Atonement, which you have accepted for yourself, is also his. There |
| Tx:13.73 | larger than anything you ever dreamed of. Those who accept the | Atonement are invulnerable. But those who believe they are guilty |
| Tx:13.76 | every mind that quietly accepts the plan which God has set for his | Atonement, relinquishing his own. You know not of salvation, for you |
| Tx:13.86 | When you accept a brother's guiltlessness, you will see the | Atonement in him. For by proclaiming it in him, you make it yours, |
| Tx:13.86 | while you still believe it is not there. His guiltlessness is your | Atonement. Grant it to him, and you will see the truth of what you |
| Tx:13.88 | how to forgive and restore what always was to your unforgiving mind. | Atonement becomes real and visible to them that use it. On earth this |
| Tx:14.3 | of their Father because they know that they are sinless. The | Atonement was established as the means of restoring guiltlessness to |
| Tx:14.3 | to the mind which has denied it and thus denied Heaven to itself. | Atonement teaches you the true condition of the Son of God. It does |
| Tx:14.6 | Each one of you has a special part to play in the | Atonement, but the message given to each to share is always the same |
| Tx:14.7 | its forms. To accuse is not to understand. The happy learners of the | Atonement become the teachers of the innocence that is the right of |
| Tx:14.8 | his sight. Bring innocence to light in answer to the call of the | Atonement. Never allow purity to remain hidden, but shine away the |
| Tx:14.8 | God has hidden himself from his own sight. We are all joined in the | Atonement here, and nothing else can unite us in this world. So will |
| Tx:14.10 | joined together, taking their part in the unified curriculum of the | Atonement. There is no unity of learning goals apart from this. There |
| Tx:14.11 | from guilt, you will inevitably learn your innocence. The circle of | Atonement has no end. And you will find ever-increasing confidence in |
| Tx:14.12 | of its peace and holiness. Abide with me within it as teachers of | Atonement, not of guilt. |
| Tx:14.14 | The crucifixion has no part in the | Atonement. Only the resurrection became my part in it. That is the |
| Tx:14.15 | Each one you see you place within the holy circle of | Atonement or leave outside, judging him fit for crucifixion or for |
| Tx:14.15 | is not of you. Refuse to accept anyone as without the blessing of | Atonement, and bring him into it by blessing him. Holiness must be |
| Tx:14.38 | The | Atonement does not make holy. You were created holy. It merely brings |
| Tx:14.40 | it is does truth release you from everything that it is not. The | Atonement is so gentle you need but whisper to it, and all its power |
| Tx:14.40 | not frail with God beside you. Yet without Him you are nothing. The | Atonement offers you God. The gift which you refused is held by Him |
| Tx:14.60 | Atonement teaches you how to escape forever from everything that you | |
| Tx:15.16 | The | Atonement is in time but not for time. Being in you, it is eternal. |
| Tx:15.43 | It is given you the instant you would have it. Yet it would not be | Atonement if there were no need for Atonement. You will not be able |
| Tx:15.43 | have it. Yet it would not be Atonement if there were no need for | Atonement. You will not be able to accept perfect communication as |
| Tx:15.47 | that separation is salvation. For it is the complete equality of the | Atonement in which salvation lies. How can you decide that special |
| Tx:15.85 | translated into knowledge by the part which God Himself plays in the | Atonement, for it is the only step in it He understands. Therefore, |
| Tx:15.90 | the Father from the Son and limit their communication. Seek not | Atonement in further separation. And limit not your vision of God's |
| Tx:16.74 | your substitute for it. And vengeance becomes your substitute for | Atonement, and the escape from vengeance becomes your loss. |
| Tx:16.79 | that you always choose between truth and illusion—between the real | Atonement which would heal and the ego's “atonement” which would |
| Tx:16.79 | limit, will support you as you seek only your place in the plan of | Atonement arising from His Love. Be an ally of God and not the ego in |
| Tx:16.79 | from His Love. Be an ally of God and not the ego in seeking how | Atonement can come to you. His help suffices, for His Messenger |
| Tx:17.9 | is still the greatest accomplishment of all in God's plan of | Atonement. All else is learned, but this is given, complete and |
| Tx:17.20 | is given to Him Who gives it life and beauty. That is why | Atonement centers on the past, which is the source of separation, and |
| Tx:17.26 | of madness. Be not separate from me, and let not the holy purpose of | Atonement be lost to you in dreams of vengeance. Relationships in |
| Tx:18.36 | be ready to receive it. That is but to confuse your role with God's. | Atonement cannot come to those who think that they must first atone, |
| Tx:18.38 | guilt and that your plan for the escape from guilt has been to bring | Atonement to it and make salvation fearful. And it is only fear that |
| Tx:18.41 | already understood the difference between truth and illusion, the | Atonement would have no meaning. The holy instant, your holy |
| Tx:18.42 | faith, joined with His understanding, He will build your part in the | Atonement and make sure that you fulfill it easily. And with Him you |
| Tx:18.63 | and this always means you still find sin attractive. No one accepts | Atonement for himself who still accepts sin as his goal. You have |
| Tx:18.63 | sin as his goal. You have thus not met your one responsibility. | Atonement is not welcomed by those who prefer pain and destruction. |
| Tx:18.64 | more than an instant, yet it is in this instant that the miracle of | Atonement happens. Afterwards, you will see the body again, but never |
| Tx:18.66 | to the goal you have accepted. It is extremely difficult to reach | Atonement by fighting against sin. [Enormous effort is expended in |
| Tx:19.10 | To have faith is to heal. It is the sign that you have accepted the | Atonement for yourself and would therefore share it. By faith you |
| Tx:19.56 | so I had to die instead of you. To the ego sin means death, and so | Atonement is achieved through murder. Salvation is looked upon as a |
| Tx:19.61 | this is the belief in death? Here is the focus of the perception of | Atonement as murder. Here is the source of the idea that love is |
| Tx:19.98 | can look upon the fear of God unterrified unless he has accepted the | Atonement and learned illusions are not real. No one can stand before |
| Tx:19.102 | Beside each of you is one who offers you the chalice of | Atonement, for the Holy Spirit is in him. Would you hold his sins |
| Tx:22.54 | does healing lie. For here your healing is and here will you accept | Atonement. And in your healing is the Sonship healed because your |
| Tx:22.55 | confusion, observing merely, “This was a mistake.” And then the same | Atonement you accepted in your relationship corrects the error and |
| Tx:23.26 | There can be no release and no escape. | Atonement thus becomes a myth, and vengeance, not forgiveness, is the |
| Tx:28.37 | Accepting the | Atonement for yourself means not to give support to someone's dream |
| W1:101.5 | must come from sin will never happen, for it has no cause. Accept | Atonement with an open mind which cherishes no lingering belief that |
| W1:139.5 | It is for this denial that you need | Atonement. Your denial made no change in what you are. But you have |
| W1:139.6 | Atonement remedies the strange idea that it is possible to doubt | |
| W1:139.7 | And they will come again until the time | Atonement is accepted, and they learn it is impossible to doubt |
| W1:139.9 | they may know that they are part of you and you of them. This does | Atonement teach and demonstrates the oneness of God's Son is |
| W1:139.9 | is unassailed by his belief he knows not what he is. Today accept | Atonement, not to change reality, but merely to accept the truth |
| W1:139.11 | I will accept | Atonement for myself, for I remain as God created me. |
| W1:139.14 | I will accept | Atonement for myself, for I remain as God created me. |
| W1:140.4 | Atonement heals with certainty and cures all sickness. For the mind | |
| W1:140.4 | guilt is absent cannot come, for it is but another form of guilt. | Atonement does not heal the sick, for that is not a cure. It takes |
| W1:150.1 | [139] I will accept | Atonement for myself. |
| W1:161.1 | in the Christ where fear and anger had prevailed before. Here is | Atonement made complete, the world passed safely by, and Heaven now |
| W2:WIC.5 | symbol that the time for learning now is over and the goal of the | Atonement has been reached at last? So therefore let us seek to find |
| W2:297.1 | a world that needs salvation and that will be saved as I accept | Atonement for myself. |
| W2:318.2 | my Father, take the role You offer me in Your request that I accept | Atonement for myself. For thus does what is thereby reconciled in me |
| W2:337.1 | is given me. What must I do to know all this is mine? I must accept | Atonement for myself and nothing more. God has already done all |
| W2:337.2 | what I am. I was mistaken when I thought I sinned, but I accept | Atonement for myself. Father, my dream is ended now. Amen. |

| M:24.6 | that you can accept it. This is still your one responsibility. | Atonement might be equated with total escape from the past and total |
| M:28.1 | interpretation of the world's purpose; the acceptance of the | Atonement for oneself. It is the end of dreams of misery and the glad |
| M:29.3 | is to let yourself be absolved of guilt. It is the essence of the | Atonement. It is the core of the curriculum. The imagined usurping of |

| Tx:2.42 | one way or another. They cannot believe that a defense which cannot | attack is the best defense. This is what is meant by “the meek shall |
| Tx:2.43 | same thing. In the reinterpretation of defenses, only their use for | attack is lost. Since this means they can be used only one way, they |
| Tx:3.13 | The best defense, as always, is not to | attack another's position but rather to protect the truth. It is |
| Tx:3.20 | the lesson of the Atonement, they are without the will to | attack, and therefore they see truly. This is what the Bible means |
| Tx:3.21 | Good teachers never terrorize their students. To terrorize is to | attack, and this results in rejection of what the teacher offers. The |

| Tx:3.47 | as an attacker, but it cannot attack. What man perceives as its | attack is merely his own vague recognition of the fact that it can |

| Tx:5.24 | it does not seek control. It does not overcome, because it does not | attack. It merely reminds. It is compelling only because of what it |
| Tx:5.60 | guilt. Guilt is more than merely not of God. It is the symbol of the | attack on God. This is a totally meaningless concept except to the |

| Tx:6.1 | occur unless you believe that you have been attacked, that [the | attack was unjust, and] you are in no way responsible. Given these |
| Tx:6.1 | the equally irrational conclusion that a brother is worthy of | attack rather than of love follows. What can be expected from insane |
| Tx:6.2 | sanity of the premises on which it rests. You cannot be attacked; | attack has no justification; and you are responsible for what you |
| Tx:6.8 | not strengthen it. I therefore offered a different interpretation of | attack and one which I do want to share with you. If you will believe |
| Tx:6.26 | Since you have also judged against what you project, you continue to | attack it because you have already attacked it by projecting it. By |
| Tx:6.27 | thus obscuring your equality with them still further. Projection and | attack are inevitably related, because projection is always a means |

| Tx:6.46 | When God created you, He made you part of Him. That is why | attack within the Kingdom is impossible. You made the ego without |

| Tx:6.49 | both merely by knowing they are not part of him, they join in the | attack together. This is perhaps the strangest perception of all if |
| Tx:6.56 | yours. God did not blot it out, because to eradicate it would be to | attack it. Being questioned, He did not question. He merely gave the |
| Tx:6.65 | [You do not lose what you communicate.] The ego uses the body for | attack, for pleasure, and for pride. The insanity of this perception |

| Tx:6.65 | as it sounds. Those who communicate fear are promoting attack, and | attack always breaks communication, making it impossible. |
| Tx:6.70 | fear of retaliation and abandonment. This is because they believe in | attack and rejection, so this is what they perceive and teach and |
| Tx:6.71 | weakening it. Those who believe in it therefore perceive this as an | attack on them. This is because everyone identifies himself with his |

| Tx:7.54 | attribute to all of it. That is why attack is never discrete and why | attack must be relinquished entirely. If it is not relinquished |
| Tx:7.55 | The mind that accepts | attack cannot love. That is because it believes that it can destroy |
| Tx:7.62 | Him. We have repeatedly emphasized that the ego does believe it can | attack God and tries to persuade you that you have done this. If the |
| Tx:7.62 | tries to persuade you that you have done this. If the mind cannot | attack, the ego proceeds perfectly logically to the position that you |
| Tx:7.66 | is perceived as weak, and those who see themselves as weakened do | attack. The attack must be blind, however, because there is nothing |
| Tx:7.66 | as weak, and those who see themselves as weakened do attack. The | attack must be blind, however, because there is nothing to attack. |
| Tx:7.66 | The attack must be blind, however, because there is nothing to | attack. Therefore, they make up images, perceive them as unworthy, |
| Tx:7.66 | Therefore, they make up images, perceive them as unworthy, and | attack them for their unworthiness. That is all the world of the ego |
| Tx:7.67 | will make something else, but because it is something else, it will | attack your thought system and divide your allegiance. You cannot |
| Tx:7.71 | Used negatively it will be destructive because it will be used for | attack, but in the service of the Holy Spirit, [the law becomes as |
| Tx:7.77 | patience born of the [love of Him for whom] He speaks. Every | attack is a call for His patience, since only His patience can |
| Tx:7.77 | is a call for His patience, since only His patience can translate | attack into blessing. Those who attack do not know they are blessed. |
| Tx:7.77 | only His patience can translate attack into blessing. Those who | attack do not know they are blessed. They attack because they believe |
| Tx:7.77 | into blessing. Those who attack do not know they are blessed. They | attack because they believe they are deprived. Give therefore of your |

| Tx:7.78 | Attack could never promote | attack unless you perceived it as a means of depriving you of |
| Tx:7.80 | your will, or you are denying what you are. Deny this and you will | attack, believing you have been attacked. But see the love of God in |
| Tx:7.87 | To fragment is to break into pieces, and mind cannot | attack or be attacked. The belief that it can, a fallacy which the |
| Tx:7.88 | ego's existence yourself, you will have laid aside all anger and all | attack, because they come from an attempt to project responsibility |
| Tx:8.26 | are not alone. My purpose, then, is to overcome the world. I do not | attack it, but my light must dispel it because of what it is. |
| Tx:8.27 | Light does not | attack darkness, but it does shine it away. If my light goes with you |
| Tx:8.53 | Attack is always physical. When attack in any form enters your mind, | |
| Tx:8.53 | Attack is always physical. When | attack in any form enters your mind, you are equating yourself with a |
| Tx:8.53 | This is the ego's interpretation of the body. You do not have to | attack physically to accept this interpretation. You are accepting it |
| Tx:8.53 | this interpretation. You are accepting it simply by the belief that | attack can get you something you want. If you did not believe this, |
| Tx:8.53 | get you something you want. If you did not believe this, the idea of | attack would have no appeal for you. When you equate yourself with a |
| Tx:8.55 | If you use the body for | attack, it is harmful to you. If you use it only to reach the minds |
| Tx:8.55 | you use the body for this and only for this, you cannot use it for | attack. In the service of uniting, it becomes a beautiful lesson in |
| Tx:8.56 | Communication ends separation. | Attack promotes it. The body is beautiful or ugly, holy or savage, |
| Tx:8.56 | Spirit, and you will mistrust it. This will lead you to hatred and | attack and loss of peace. |
| Tx:8.62 | A mind which has been blocked has allowed itself to be vulnerable to | attack because it has turned against itself. |
| Tx:8.63 | for anything else. To use a medium of communication as a medium of | attack is an obvious confusion in purpose. |
| Tx:8.64 | To communicate is to join and to | attack is to separate. How can you do both simultaneously with the |
| Tx:8.65 | the mind, the body becomes whole, because the mind's purpose is one. | Attack can only be an assumed purpose of the body, because apart from |
| Tx:8.66 | be to escape from limitations? To conceive of the body as a means of | attack of any kind and to entertain even the possibility that joy |
| Tx:8.67 | condemnation is unreal, and it must be unreal since it is a form of | attack, then it can have no results. |
| Tx:8.68 | Freedom from illusions lies only in not believing them. There is no | attack, but there is unlimited communication and therefore unlimited |
| Tx:8.69 | Attitudes toward the body are attitudes toward | attack. The ego's definitions of everything are childish and always |
| Tx:8.69 | It does not equate it with what it is. To the ego, the body is to | attack with. Equating you with the body, it teaches that you are to |
| Tx:8.69 | attack with. Equating you with the body, it teaches that you are to | attack with, because this is what it believes. The body, then, is not |
| Tx:8.72 | in the body as an end, because this is synonymous with the belief in | attack as an end. The ego has a real investment in sickness. If you |
| Tx:8.72 | from the ego's point of view because it obscures the obvious | attack which underlies the sickness. If you accepted this and also |
| Tx:8.72 | the sickness. If you accepted this and also decided against | attack, you could not give this false witness to the ego's stand. |
| Tx:8.75 | body rests are true. Specifically, these are that the body is for | attack and that you are a body. Without these premises, sickness is |
| Tx:8.79 | own perception of littleness. Do not let it reflect your will to | attack. Health is the natural state of anything whose interpretation |
| Tx:8.79 | whose interpretation is left to the Holy Spirit, Who perceives no | attack on anything. Health is the result of relinquishing all |
| Tx:8.85 | To the ego this is perfectly sensible. Believing in the power of | attack, the ego wants attack. |
| Tx:8.85 | perfectly sensible. Believing in the power of attack, the ego wants | attack. |
| Tx:8.115 | To disbelieve is to side against or to | attack. To believe is to accept and to side with. To believe is not |
| Tx:9.11 | of what is your natural ability. By reinterpreting the ability to | attack, which you did make, into the ability to share, He translates |
| Tx:9.15 | of grandiosity and confusion which makes it likely that the ego will | attack anyone and anything for no reason at all. This is exactly what |
| Tx:9.20 | to start with the equally incredible idea that he really believes in | attack and so does the patient, but it does not matter in either case. |
| Tx:9.41 | confusion increases. The ego is, therefore, particularly likely to | attack you when you react lovingly, because it has evaluated you as |
| Tx:9.42 | The ego will begin to | attack your motives as soon as they become clearly out of accord with |
| Tx:9.42 | since its uncertainty is increased. Yet it is surely pointless to | attack in return. What can this mean except that you are agreeing |
| Tx:9.49 | of grandiosity is competitiveness, because it always involves | attack. It is a delusional attempt to outdo but not to undo. We said |
| Tx:9.49 | self-abasement and seek relief. Then it offers you the illusion of | attack as a solution. |
| Tx:9.50 | of vulnerability renders it incapable of judgment except in terms of | attack. When it experiences threat, its only decision is whether to |
| Tx:9.50 | attack. When it experiences threat, its only decision is whether to | attack now or to withdraw to attack later. If you accept its offer of |
| Tx:9.50 | threat, its only decision is whether to attack now or to withdraw to | attack later. If you accept its offer of grandiosity, it will attack |
| Tx:9.50 | to attack later. If you accept its offer of grandiosity, it will | attack immediately. If you do not, it will wait. |
| Tx:9.51 | reality will not remain with you unless you do not allow the ego to | attack it. The ego will make every effort to recover and mobilize its |
| Tx:9.52 | have made grandiosity and are afraid of it because it is a form of | attack, but your grandeur is of God, Who created it out of His Love. |
| Tx:9.52 | Mind of God. When you forget this, you will despair, and you will | attack. |
| Tx:9.58 | did not establish your value, and it needs no defense. Nothing can | attack it or prevail over it. It does not vary. It merely is. Ask the |
| Tx:9.64 | would decide against them as long as your minds are split, and to | attack what you have created is impossible. But remember that it is |
| Tx:9.68 | then appears to be fearful, but only because the dissociation was an | attack on truth. You are fearful because you have forgotten. And you |
| Tx:9.71 | When you | attack, you are denying yourself. You are specifically teaching |
| Tx:9.71 | If you understand that the misuse of defenses always constitutes an | attack on truth and truth is God, you will realize why this is always |
| Tx:9.71 | you are part of God, you will understand why it is that you always | attack yourself first. |
| Tx:9.72 | [All | attack is self-attack. It cannot be anything else. Arising from your |
| Tx:9.72 | Arising from your own decision not to be what you are, it is an | attack on your identification. Attack is thus the way in which your |
| Tx:9.72 | not to be what you are, it is an attack on your identification. | Attack is thus the way in which your identification is lost because, |
| Tx:9.72 | thus the way in which your identification is lost because, when you | attack, you must have forgotten what you are. And if your reality is |
| Tx:9.72 | have forgotten what you are. And if your reality is God's, when you | attack you are not remembering Him. This is not because He is gone, |
| Tx:9.76 | that part of God can suffer. Love cannot suffer, because it cannot | attack. The remembrance of love therefore brings invulnerability with |
| Tx:9.78 | for this is what it offers you. To obtain this you are willing to | attack the divinity of your brothers and thus lose sight of yours. |
| Tx:9.85 | of him, because he cannot be reconciled with God's Will. If you | attack him, you will make him real to you. But if you refuse to |
| Tx:9.102 | know His Son if he were not free. To interfere with you would be to | attack Himself, and God is not insane. When you denied Him, you were |
| Tx:10.16 | is the first step toward recognizing what you truly want. Every | attack is a step away from this, and every healing thought brings it |
| Tx:10.16 | understanding of Him, you know there is but one will. Yet when you | attack any part of God and His Kingdom, your understanding is not |
| Tx:10.23 | is not God's Will for His Son. Pain is not of Him, for He knows no | attack and His peace surrounds you silently. God is very quiet, for |
| Tx:10.35 | defense as blaming others. You cannot enter God's Presence if you | attack His Son. When His Son lifts his voice in praise of his |
| Tx:10.49 | that you have successfully attacked truth, you are believing that | attack has power. Very simply, then, you have become afraid of |
| Tx:10.52 | love, and only the insane could believe that love can be gained by | attack. But the sane know that only attack could produce fear from |
| Tx:10.52 | that love can be gained by attack. But the sane know that only | attack could produce fear from which the love of God completely |
| Tx:10.53 | and truth lie in separation, and to establish this belief it must | attack. Unaware that the belief cannot be established and obsessed |
| Tx:10.55 | attempt to demonstrate it, and this it does constantly. Analyzing to | attack meaning, the ego does succeed in overlooking it and is left |
| Tx:10.59 | resurrection is the complete triumph of Christ over the ego, not by | attack but by transcendence. For Christ does rise above the ego and |
| Tx:11.1 | is hazardous to you. If you decide that someone is really trying to | attack you or desert you or enslave you, you will respond as if he |
| Tx:11.3 | for. Offer him anything else, and you are assuming the right to | attack his reality by interpreting it as you see fit. |
| Tx:11.4 | for help as exactly what they are except your own perceived need to | attack. It is only this that makes you willing to engage in endless |
| Tx:11.10 | it. That is the ultimate value to you in learning to perceive | attack as a call for love. We have learned surely that fear and |
| Tx:11.10 | attack as a call for love. We have learned surely that fear and | attack are inevitably associated. If only attack produces fear and if |
| Tx:11.10 | surely that fear and attack are inevitably associated. If only | attack produces fear and if you see attack as the call for help that |
| Tx:11.10 | inevitably associated. If only attack produces fear and if you see | attack as the call for help that it is, the unreality of fear must |
| Tx:11.26 | you are believing that the ego is to be saved and to be saved by | attack. If he attacks, you are agreeing with this belief, and if you |
| Tx:11.26 | attack. If he attacks, you are agreeing with this belief, and if you | attack, you are reinforcing it. Remember that those who attack are |
| Tx:11.26 | and if you attack, you are reinforcing it. Remember that those who | attack are poor. Their poverty asks for gifts, not for further |
| Tx:11.29 | To identify with the ego is to | attack yourself and make yourself poor. That is why everyone who |
| Tx:11.34 | mind is the mechanism of decision. If you will recognize that all | attack which you perceive is in your own mind and nowhere else, you |
| Tx:11.43 | Only love is strong because it is undivided. The strong do not | attack because they see no need to do so. Before the idea of attack |
| Tx:11.43 | do not attack because they see no need to do so. Before the idea of | attack can enter your mind, you must have perceived yourself as weak. |
| Tx:11.43 | as weak. Because you had attacked yourself and believed that the | attack was effective, you behold yourself as weakened. No longer |
| Tx:11.43 | you attempt to “equalize” the situation you have made. You use | attack to do so because you believe that attack was successful in |
| Tx:11.43 | you have made. You use attack to do so because you believe that | attack was successful in weakening you. |
| Tx:11.44 | For if you accept your invulnerability, you are recognizing that | attack has no effect. Although you have attacked yourself, and very |
| Tx:11.44 | anything. Once you realize this, there is no longer any sense in | attack, for it manifestly does not work and cannot protect you. Yet |
| Tx:11.45 | You will never realize the utter uselessness of | attack except by recognizing that your attack on yourself had no |
| Tx:11.45 | the utter uselessness of attack except by recognizing that your | attack on yourself had no effects. For others do react to attack if |
| Tx:11.45 | that your attack on yourself had no effects. For others do react to | attack if they perceive it, and if you are trying to attack them, you |
| Tx:11.45 | do react to attack if they perceive it, and if you are trying to | attack them, you will be unable to avoid interpreting this as |
| Tx:11.45 | is in yourself. For you are always the first point of your | attack, and if this has never been, it has no consequences. |
| Tx:11.50 | you have chosen is against love and amounts to a course in how to | attack yourself. A necessary minor, supplementing this major |
| Tx:11.77 | but you know neither the Father nor the Son because of them. You | attack the real world every day and every hour and every minute, and |
| Tx:11.77 | are surprised that you cannot see it. If you seek love in order to | attack it, you will never find it. For if love is sharing, how can |
| Tx:11.77 | it and it will come to you because it is drawn to itself. But offer | attack and it will remain hidden, for it can live only in peace. |
| Tx:11.78 | nothing. Yet he is far from you whose Self he is, for you chose to | attack him, and he disappeared from your sight into his Father. He |
| Tx:11.85 | If you did not feel guilty, you could not | attack, for condemnation is the root of attack. It is the judgment of |
| Tx:11.85 | feel guilty, you could not attack, for condemnation is the root of | attack. It is the judgment of one mind by another as unworthy of love |
| Tx:11.87 | of salvation and be loving. Love does not kill to save. If it did, | attack would be salvation, and this is the ego's interpretation, not |
| Tx:11.98 | instead of dispelling it. The ego believes in atonement through | attack, being fully committed to the insane notion that attack is |
| Tx:11.98 | through attack, being fully committed to the insane notion that | attack is salvation. And you who cherish guilt must also believe it, |
| Tx:11.99 | The ego teaches you to | attack yourself because you are guilty, and this must increase the |
| Tx:11.99 | guilty, and this must increase the guilt, for guilt is the result of | attack. In the ego's teaching, then, there is no escape from guilt. |
| Tx:11.99 | In the ego's teaching, then, there is no escape from guilt. For | attack makes guilt real, and if it is real, there is no way to |
| Tx:11.99 | of God, he knows this is true. And being true for you, you cannot | attack yourself, for without guilt, attack is impossible. You, then, |
| Tx:11.99 | being true for you, you cannot attack yourself, for without guilt, | attack is impossible. You, then, are saved because God's Son is |
| Tx:12.4 | of guilt. To the ego, the guiltless are guilty. Those who do not | attack are its “enemies” because, by not valuing its interpretation |
| Tx:12.10 | not afraid of fear. You do not like it, but it is not your desire to | attack which really frightens you. You are not seriously disturbed by |
| Tx:12.12 | Your fear of | attack is nothing compared to your fear of love. You would be willing |
| Tx:12.12 | impel you to answer His call and leap into Heaven. You believe that | attack is salvation to prevent you from this. For still deeper than |
| Tx:12.14 | you little. For you believe that magnitude lies in defiance and that | attack is grandeur. You think you have made a world which God would |
| Tx:12.24 | is questioned, you believe that yours is. For you believe that | attack is your reality and that your destruction is the final proof |
| Tx:12.28 | you. They carry the spots of pain in your minds, directing you to | attack in the present in retaliation for a past that is no more. And |
| Tx:12.35 | figure in their own private world. And thus it is that you must | attack yourself first, for what you attack is not in others. Its only |
| Tx:12.35 | And thus it is that you must attack yourself first, for what you | attack is not in others. Its only reality is in your own mind, and by |

| Tx:13.11 | Guilt remains the only thing that hides the Father, for guilt is the | attack upon His Son. The guilty always condemn, and having done so, |
| Tx:13.15 | is right in his delusion? The idea that the guiltless Son of God can | attack himself and make himself guilty is insane. In any form, in |
| Tx:13.53 | to deceive yourselves. Those who choose to be deceived will merely | attack direct approaches, which would seem but to encroach upon |
| Tx:13.69 | of guilt. Everyone you offer healing to returns it. Everyone you | attack keeps it and cherishes it by holding it against you. Whether |
| Tx:14.9 | pain be his. Yet those who have failed to learn need teaching, not | attack. To attack those who have need of teaching is to fail to learn |
| Tx:14.9 | Yet those who have failed to learn need teaching, not attack. To | attack those who have need of teaching is to fail to learn from them. |

| Tx:14.23 | keep no source of interference from His sight, for He will not | attack your sentinels. But bring them to Him, and let His gentleness |
| Tx:14.28 | it go. Truth does not struggle against ignorance, and love does not | attack fear. What needs no protection does not defend itself. Defense |
| Tx:14.53 | if the form is acceptable, the content must be. Otherwise, it will | attack the form. You who believe you understand something of the |
| Tx:14.74 | If you want peace, you must abandon the teacher of | attack. The Teacher of peace will never abandon you. You can desert |
| Tx:15.13 | and cannot be yours alone. Remember, then, when you are tempted to | attack a brother, that his instant of release is yours. Miracles are |
| Tx:15.15 | state is beyond time, for his purity remains forever beyond | attack and without variability. Time stands still in his holiness and |
| Tx:15.46 | alone is to deny the oneness of the Father and his Son and thus to | attack reality. |
| Tx:15.70 | the root of its bitter resentment. For it would much prefer to | attack directly and avoid delaying what it really wants. Yet the ego |
| Tx:15.70 | as it sees it and recognizes that no one could interpret direct | attack as love. Yet to make guilty is direct attack but does not seem |
| Tx:15.70 | could interpret direct attack as love. Yet to make guilty is direct | attack but does not seem to be. For the guilty expect attack, and |
| Tx:15.70 | is direct attack but does not seem to be. For the guilty expect | attack, and having asked for it, they are attracted to it. |
| Tx:15.71 | believes that to forgive another is to lose him. For it is only by | attack without forgiveness that the ego can ensure the guilt which |
| Tx:15.91 | purposes of communication and renounce its use for separation and | attack which the ego sees in it, you will learn you have no need of a |
| Tx:15.96 | sacrifice. And it is this that you must look upon—sacrifice is | attack, not love. If you would accept but this one idea, your fear of |
| Tx:15.98 | all—that love demands sacrifice and is therefore inseparable from | attack and fear. And that guilt is the price of love, which must be |
| Tx:15.105 | the belief in the reality of the deprivation? For deprivation breeds | attack, being the belief that attack is justified. And as long as you |
| Tx:15.105 | deprivation? For deprivation breeds attack, being the belief that | attack is justified. And as long as you would retain the deprivation, |
| Tx:15.105 | is justified. And as long as you would retain the deprivation, | attack becomes salvation, and sacrifice becomes love. |
| Tx:16.2 | the ego always empathizes to weaken, and to weaken is always to | attack. You do not know what empathizing means. Yet of this you may |
| Tx:16.17 | grow with its increase. The power of holiness and the weakness of | attack have both been brought into awareness. And this has been |
| Tx:16.17 | accomplished in minds firmly convinced that holiness is weakness and | attack is power. Should not this be a sufficient miracle to teach you |
| Tx:16.43 | it involves a great amount of pain. Anxiety, despair, guilt, and | attack all enter into it, broken into by periods in which they seem |
| Tx:16.43 | for what they are. Whatever form they take, they are always an | attack on the self to make the other guilty. We have spoken of this |
| Tx:16.44 | you see Him, and Him alone, as guilty, leaving the Sonship open to | attack and unprotected from it. The special love relationship is the |
| Tx:16.52 | relationship. Through the death of your self, you think you can | attack another self and snatch it from the other to replace the self |

| Tx:17.54 | have denied yourself its benefit. You reinforce this every time you | attack each other, for the attack must blind you to yourself. And it |
| Tx:17.54 | You reinforce this every time you attack each other, for the | attack must blind you to yourself. And it is impossible to deny |
| Tx:17.65 | impossible. Some idea of bodies must have entered, for minds cannot | attack. |
| Tx:17.75 | asks of you. Let truth be what it is. Do not intrude upon it, do not | attack it, do not interrupt its coming. Let it encompass every |
| Tx:18.14 | have preferred. Here, you are “free” to make over whatever seemed to | attack you and change it into a tribute to your ego, which was |
| Tx:18.14 | ego, which always looks upon itself and therefore on you as under | attack and highly vulnerable to it. |
| Tx:18.51 | separation in the mind and let it not know its identity. Mind cannot | attack, but it can make fantasies and direct the body to act them |
| Tx:18.51 | mind believes the body is actually acting out its fantasies, it will | attack the body by increasing the projection of its guilt upon it. |
| Tx:18.52 | In this, the mind is clearly delusional. It cannot | attack, but it maintains it can and uses what it does to hurt the |
| Tx:18.52 | uses what it does to hurt the body to prove it can. The mind cannot | attack, but it can deceive itself. And this is all it does when it |
| Tx:18.54 | is insane to use the body as the scapegoat for guilt, directing its | attack and blaming it for what you wished it to do. It is impossible |
| Tx:18.85 | kingdom in which you set it off, surrounded by darkness, guarded by | attack, and reinforced by hate. Within its barricades is still a tiny |
| Tx:18.93 | of every evil thought you had laid upon it. Here there is no | attack upon the Son of God, and you are welcome. Here is your |
| Tx:19.5 | difference in what they are. Faithlessness would always limit and | attack; faith would remove all limitations and make whole. |
| Tx:19.6 | the body, thought of as a means for seeking out reality through | attack, while the other part would heal and therefore calls upon the |
| Tx:19.9 | devastation wrought by your faithlessness. For faithlessness is an | attack which seems to be justified by its results. For by withholding |
| Tx:19.11 | Faith is the opposite of fear, as much a part of love as fear is of | attack. Faith is the acknowledgment of union. It is the gracious |
| Tx:19.17 | necessarily based on the firm conviction that minds, not bodies, can | attack. And thus the mind is guilty and will forever so remain unless |
| Tx:19.18 | be to violate reality and to succeed. Sin is the proclamation that | attack is real and guilt is justified. It assumes the Son of God is |
| Tx:19.33 | be a power beyond God's, capable of making another will which could | attack His Will and overcome it and give His Son a will apart from |
| Tx:19.41 | your brothers and salvation? And yet, it is this little remnant of | attack you cherish still against each other that is the first |
| Tx:19.49 | Overlooking guilt completely, it sees no fear. Being wholly without | attack, it could not be afraid. Fear is attracted to what love sees |
| Tx:19.70 | grounds for depression and disillusionment and for retaliative | attack on what you think has failed you? Use not your error as the |
| Tx:19.73 | would keep you unaware of it. Who would send messages of hatred and | attack if he but understood he sends them to himself? Who would |
| Tx:19.74 | are always sent away from you in the belief that for your message of | attack and guilt will someone other than yourself suffer. And even if |
| Tx:19.74 | convince you this is possible, it bids the body search for pain in | attack upon another, calling it pleasure and offering it to you as |
| Tx:19.74 | another, calling it pleasure and offering it to you as freedom from | attack. |
| Tx:19.86 | carefully guarded by love, preserved from every thought that would | attack it and quietly made ready to fulfill the mighty task for which |
| Tx:19.87 | What danger can assail the wholly innocent? What can | attack the guiltless? What fear can enter and disturb the peace of |
| Tx:19.101 | know him, and your interpretation of him is very fearful. And you | attack him still, to keep what seems to be yourself unharmed. Yet in |
| Tx:19.103 | The “enemies” of Christ, the worshipers of sin, know not Whom they | attack. This is your brother, crucified by sin, and waiting for |
| Tx:20.19 | an answer. Do you like what you have made—a world of murder and | attack through which you thread your timid way through constant |
| Tx:20.73 | realized that those who seem to walk about in it, to sin and die, | attack and murder and destroy themselves, are wholly unreal? Could |
| Tx:21.21 | and which you worship. And anything which threatens this seems to | attack your faith, for here is it invested. Think not that you are |
| Tx:21.62 | Madness is an | attack on reason that drives it out of mind and takes its place. |
| Tx:21.62 | that drives it out of mind and takes its place. Reason does not | attack but takes the place of madness quietly, replacing madness if |
| Tx:21.70 | with him. And you are for him or against him; either you love him or | attack him, protect his unity or see him shattered and slain by your |
| Tx:21.70 | attack him, protect his unity or see him shattered and slain by your | attack. |
| Tx:21.71 | whom they hate. They are indeed a sorry army, each one as likely to | attack his brother or turn upon himself as to remember they thought |
| Tx:21.72 | easily. This is no army, but a madhouse. What seems to be a planned | attack is bedlam. |
| Tx:21.73 | a glimpse of the great enemy which always eludes its murderous | attack by turning into something else. How treacherous does this |
| Tx:21.77 | of truth or sin, power or helplessness, is the choice of whether to | attack or heal. For healing comes of power and attack of |
| Tx:21.77 | choice of whether to attack or heal. For healing comes of power and | attack of helplessness. Whom you attack you cannot want to heal. And |
| Tx:21.77 | For healing comes of power and attack of helplessness. Whom you | attack you cannot want to heal. And whom you would have healed must |
| Tx:21.77 | you would have healed must be the one you chose to be protected from | attack. And what is this decision but the choice whether to see him |
| Tx:22.5 | Let reason take another step. If you | attack whom God would heal and hate the one He loves, then you and |
| Tx:22.15 | you. Here are His sweetness and His gentle innocence protected from | attack. And here can He return in confidence, for faith in one |
| Tx:22.36 | of his sins and of his body. What is there in him that you would | attack except what you associate with his body, which you believe can |
| Tx:22.47 | is strength and power. Here can no weakness enter, for here is no | attack and therefore no illusions. Love rests in certainty. Only |
| Tx:22.48 | has joined! This is your “enemy”—a frightened mouse that would | attack the universe. How likely is it that it will succeed? Can it be |
| Tx:22.61 | Who can | attack the Son of God and not attack his Father? How can God's Son be |
| Tx:22.61 | Who can attack the Son of God and not | attack his Father? How can God's Son be weak and frail and easily |
| Tx:22.61 | sin and every condemnation which you perceive and justify is an | attack upon your Father. And that is why it has not happened nor |
| Tx:22.61 | think that they are separate because of fear. For it seems safer to | attack another or yourself than to attack the great Creator of the |
| Tx:22.61 | of fear. For it seems safer to attack another or yourself than to | attack the great Creator of the universe, whose power you know. |
| Tx:22.62 | His power is yours. But you will not remember this while you believe | attack of any kind means anything. It is unjustified in any form |
| Tx:22.62 | separate from your Creator. For only then would it be possible to | attack a part of the creation without the whole, the Son without the |
| Tx:22.62 | the creation without the whole, the Son without the Father, and to | attack another without yourself or hurt yourself without the other |
| Tx:22.62 | belief you want. Yet wherein lies its value except in the desire to | attack in safety? Attack is neither safe nor dangerous. It is |
| Tx:22.62 | Yet wherein lies its value except in the desire to attack in safety? | Attack is neither safe nor dangerous. It is impossible. And this is |
| Tx:22.62 | And this is so because the universe is one. You would not choose | attack on its reality if it were not essential to attack to see it |
| Tx:22.62 | would not choose attack on its reality if it were not essential to | attack to see it [separate from its Creator]. And thus it seems as if |
| Tx:22.62 | it [separate from its Creator]. And thus it seems as if love could | attack and become fearful. |
| Tx:22.63 | Only the different can | attack. So you conclude because you can attack you must be different. |
| Tx:22.63 | Only the different can attack. So you conclude because you can | attack you must be different. Yet does the Holy Spirit explain this |
| Tx:22.63 | explain this differently. Because you are not different, you cannot | attack. Either position is a logical conclusion if only the different |
| Tx:22.63 | Either position is a logical conclusion if only the different can | attack. Either could be maintained, but never both. The only question |
| Tx:22.63 | position of what you understand, you seem to be and therefore can | attack. Of the alternatives, this seems more natural and more in line |
| Tx:23.1 | cannot fear, for sin of any kind is weakness. The show of strength | attack would use to cover frailty conceals it not, for how can the |
| Tx:23.1 | unreal be hidden? No one is strong who has an enemy, and no one can | attack unless he thinks he has. Belief in enemies is therefore the |
| Tx:23.2 | weaken it because of this; and you will think that you succeeded and | attack again. It is as certain you will fear what you attack as it is |
| Tx:23.2 | succeeded and attack again. It is as certain you will fear what you | attack as it is sure that you will love what you perceive as sinless. |
| Tx:23.2 | him from fear. And he will see only the sinless, who can not | attack. |
| Tx:23.10 | Your “enemy” was God Himself, to Whom all conflict, triumph, and | attack of any kind are all unknown. He loves you perfectly, |
| Tx:23.14 | exist between one power and nothingness. There is nothing you could | attack that is not part of you. And by attacking it, you make two |
| Tx:23.19 | they are for, because it is their purpose to make meaningless and to | attack the truth. Here are the laws that rule the world you made. And |
| Tx:23.20 | true. Each one establishes this for himself and makes it true by his | attack on what another values. And this is justified because the |
| Tx:23.22 | worshiper of sin, is that each one must sin and therefore deserves | attack and death. This principle, closely related to the first, is |
| Tx:23.25 | whose every aspect seems to be at war with Him and justified in its | attack. And now is conflict made inevitable and beyond the help of |
| Tx:23.28 | inheritance which should be yours; your justified position and | attack for what has been withheld; and the inevitable loss the enemy |
| Tx:23.28 | ones protest their “innocence.” Were they not forced into this foul | attack by the unscrupulous behavior of the enemy, they would respond |
| Tx:23.29 | to you. His treachery demands his death that you may live. And you | attack only in self defense. |
| Tx:23.30 | is it you want that needs his death? Can you be sure your murderous | attack is justified unless you know what it is for? And here a final |
| Tx:23.30 | your madness that makes it “sane.” This is the reason why you must | attack. Here is what makes your vengeance justified. Behold, |
| Tx:23.31 | your possession made complete. And never will your brother cease his | attack on you for what you stole. Nor will God end His vengeance upon |
| Tx:23.32 | completely turned around, with madness sanity, illusions true, | attack a kindness, hatred love and murder benediction, is the goal |
| Tx:23.35 | How can some forms of murder not mean death? Can an | attack in any form be love? What form of condemnation is a blessing? |
| Tx:23.35 | his savior powerless and finds salvation? Let not the form of the | attack on him deceive you. You cannot seek to harm him and be saved. |
| Tx:23.35 | You cannot seek to harm him and be saved. Who can find safety from | attack by turning on himself? How can it matter what the form this |
| Tx:23.38 | witness that these laws are true. The seeming gentler forms of the | attack are no less certain in their witnessing or their results. |
| Tx:23.40 | will not recognize the rest for what they are. And they will follow. | Attack in any form has placed your foot upon the twisted stairway |
| Tx:23.41 | Is it not true you do not recognize some of the forms | attack can take? If it is true attack in any form will hurt you and |
| Tx:23.41 | do not recognize some of the forms attack can take? If it is true | attack in any form will hurt you and will do so just as much as in |
| Tx:23.41 | it must follow that you do not always recognize the source of pain. | Attack in any form is equally destructive. Its purpose does not |
| Tx:23.42 | is long deceived. Withhold forgiveness from your brother, and you | attack him. You give him nothing and receive of him but what you gave. |
| Tx:23.43 | is the belief salvation is impossible. It would maintain you can | attack a little, love a little, and know the difference. Thus it |
| Tx:23.44 | compromise is possible. They do not see that, if it is, salvation is | attack. Yet it is certain the belief that salvation is impossible |
| Tx:23.44 | come. Forgiveness cannot be withheld a little. Nor is it possible to | attack for this and love for that and understand forgiveness. Would |
| Tx:23.45 | Those who believe that peace can be defended and that | attack is justified on its behalf cannot perceive it lies within |
| Tx:23.46 | battlefield? [Do not remain in conflict, for there is no war without | attack.] |
| Tx:23.47 | not of death. Yet He remains the only place of safety. In Him is no | attack, and no illusion in any form stalks Heaven. Heaven is wholly |
| Tx:23.47 | the form. What is not love is murder. What is not loving must be an | attack. Every illusion is an assault on truth, and every one does |
| Tx:23.50 | so it cannot be extended to all creation. Each form of murder and | attack that still attracts you and that you do not recognize for what |
| Tx:23.52 | When the temptation to | attack rises to make your mind darkened and murderous, remember you |
| Tx:23.52 | have chosen to remain where He would have you, and no illusion can | attack the peace of God together with His Son. |
| Tx:23.53 | look, where meaning can be given what you see. For only bodies could | attack and murder, and if this is your purpose, then you must be one |
| Tx:24.4 | Beliefs will never openly | attack each other, because conflicting outcomes are impossible. But |
| Tx:24.4 | it there. The secret enemies of peace, your least decision to choose | attack instead of love, unrecognized and swift to challenge you to |
| Tx:24.5 | and with the grandeur which He gave His Son. What else could justify | attack? For who could hate someone whose Self is his and whom He |
| Tx:24.6 | For specialness not only sets apart but serves as grounds from which | attack on those who seem “beneath” the special one is “natural” and |
| Tx:24.7 | and worth preserving. Specialness must be defended. Illusions can | attack it, and they do. For what your brother must become to keep |
| Tx:24.8 | for you to hate your brother if you were like him? Could you | attack him if you realized you journey with him to a goal that is the |
| Tx:24.9 | Could you | attack each other if you chose to see no specialness of any kind |
| Tx:24.11 | defend illusions against the truth. For what is specialness but an | attack upon the Will of God? You love your brother not while it is |
| Tx:24.13 | Pursuit of specialness is always at the cost of peace. Who can | attack his savior and cut him down yet recognize his strong support? |
| Tx:24.19 | enemy of specialness but only friend to what is real in you. Not one | attack you thought you made on him has taken from him the gift that |
| Tx:24.28 | It is not you that is so vulnerable and open to | attack that just a word, a little whisper that you do not like, a |
| Tx:24.29 | or creeps or crawls or even lives at all. Nothing is safe from its | attack, and it is safe from nothing. It will forever more be |
| Tx:24.30 | they will the death of love itself? Yet they are powerless to make | attack upon illusions. They are not bodies; as One mind they wait for |
| Tx:24.36 | specialness, it is impossible. Yet to those who wish to heal and not | attack, it is quite obvious. The purpose of attack is in the mind, |
| Tx:24.36 | who wish to heal and not attack, it is quite obvious. The purpose of | attack is in the mind, and its effects are felt but where it is. Nor |
| Tx:24.62 | too dear to save his specialness from the least slight, the tiniest | attack, the whispered doubt, the hint of threat, or anything but |
| Tx:25.23 | you value guilt, to that extent will you perceive a world in which | attack is justified. To the extent to which you recognize that guilt |
| Tx:25.23 | that guilt is meaningless, to that extent will you perceive | attack cannot be justified. This is in strict accord with vision's |
| Tx:25.28 | are really calls to peace. He will perceive that where he gave | attack is but another altar where he can with equal ease and far more |
| Tx:25.32 | are joined and recognize they are can feel no guilt. For they cannot | attack, and they rejoice that this is so, seeing their safety in this |
| Tx:25.37 | The state of sinlessness is merely this: the whole desire to | attack is gone, and so there is no reason to perceive the Son of God |
| Tx:25.37 | it has no purpose and is meaningless without the goal of sin. | Attack and sin are bound as one illusion, each the cause and aim and |
| Tx:25.38 | Attack makes Christ your enemy and God along with Him. Must you not | |
| Tx:25.38 | else,” a “something” to be feared instead of loved. Who would | attack whatever he perceives as wholly innocent? And who, because he |
| Tx:25.38 | he perceives as wholly innocent? And who, because he wishes to | attack, can fail to think it must be guilty to deserve the wish and |
| Tx:25.42 | your forgiveness will you understand His love for you; through your | attack believe He hates you, thinking Heaven must be hell. Look once |
| Tx:25.49 | against himself. Only in darkness does your specialness appear to be | attack. In light, you see it as your special function in the plan to |
| Tx:25.49 | as your special function in the plan to save the Son of God from all | attack and let him understand that he is safe, as he has always been |
| Tx:25.57 | is given the choice of form most suitable to him; one which will not | attack the world he sees, but enter into it in quietness and show him |
| Tx:25.64 | necessary that your faith in it be strong, unswerving, and without | attack from all beliefs opposed to it. You have no fixed allegiance. |
| Tx:25.74 | and cannot chasten without cause. What cause can be to warrant an | attack upon the innocent? In justice then does love correct mistakes, |
| Tx:25.81 | justice sure. The Holy Spirit's perception leaves no ground for an | attack. Only a loss could justify attack, and loss of any kind He |
| Tx:25.81 | perception leaves no ground for an attack. Only a loss could justify | attack, and loss of any kind He cannot see. The world solves problems |
| Tx:25.83 | occur. Healing must be for everyone because he does not merit an | attack of any kind. What order can there be in miracles, unless |
| Tx:25.84 | unsettled, unresolved, and lasting in its power of injustice and | attack. No one can be unjust to you, unless you have decided first to |
| Tx:26.1 | In the “dynamics” of | attack is sacrifice a key idea. It is the pivot upon which all |
| Tx:26.11 | If this were true, then God would be unfair, sin would be possible, | attack be justified, and vengeance fair. |
| Tx:26.17 | be as He created it. Nothing He loves but must be sinless and beyond | attack. Your special function opens wide the door beyond which is the |
| Tx:26.20 | of the universe made true. This is because knowledge makes no | attack upon perception. They are brought together, and only one |
| Tx:26.44 | all the world of sick illusions. All belief in sin, in power of | attack, in hurt and harm, in sacrifice and death has come to you. For |
| Tx:26.52 | until God becomes impatient, splits the world apart, and relegates | attack unto Himself. Thus has He lost His Mind, proclaiming sin has |
| Tx:26.59 | Sin is belief | attack can be projected outside the mind where the belief arose. Here |
| Tx:26.59 | This world is an attempt to prove your innocence while cherishing | attack. Its failure lies in that you still feel guilty, though |
| Tx:26.64 | where there is no pain or suffering. Forgiveness is the answer to | attack of any kind. So is attack deprived of its effects, and hate is |
| Tx:26.64 | or suffering. Forgiveness is the answer to attack of any kind. So is | attack deprived of its effects, and hate is answered in the name of |
| Tx:26.77 | is in him. And never will you know He is in you as well, while you | attack His chosen home and battle with His host. Regard him gently. |
| Tx:26.85 | Their Presence? Only this—you have a differential view of when | attack is justified and when you think it is unfair and not to be |
| Tx:26.86 | What does it mean if you perceive | attack in certain forms to be unfair to you? It means that there must |
| Tx:26.87 | Unfairness and | attack are one mistake, so firmly joined that where one is perceived, |
| Tx:26.88 | of your guilt to someone else? And is this innocence which your | attack on him attempts to get? Is it not retribution for your own |
| Tx:26.88 | attack on him attempts to get? Is it not retribution for your own | attack upon the Son of God you seek? Is it not safer to believe that |
| Tx:27.1 | to be unfairly treated is a compromise attempt that would combine | attack and innocence. Who can combine the wholly incompatible and |
| Tx:27.2 | But every pain you suffer do you see as proof that he is guilty of | attack. Thus would you make yourself to be the sign that he has lost |
| Tx:27.3 | treated, or in need of anything, you but accuse your brother of | attack upon God's Son. You hold a picture of your crucifixion before |
| Tx:27.3 | Yet this is writ in hell and not in Heaven, where you are beyond | attack and prove his innocence. The picture of yourself you offer him |
| Tx:27.5 | be seen nor pictured. Yet this one has not been used for purpose of | attack and therefore never suffered pain at all. It witnesses to the |
| Tx:27.6 | that no reproach he laid upon his heart was ever justified, and no | attack can ever touch him with the poisoned and relentless sting of |
| Tx:27.13 | brother and could love and trust him still? He has attacked and will | attack again. Protect him not, because your damaged body shows that |
| Tx:27.31 | of your brother that you see means nothing. There is nothing to | attack or to deny, love, or hate, or to endow with power or to see as |
| Tx:27.45 | then. But it does mean, if only for an instant, you love without | attack. An instant is sufficient. Miracles wait not on time. |
| Tx:27.46 | to heal. And nothing more than just one instant of your love without | attack is necessary that all this occur. In that one instant are you |
| Tx:27.47 | your behalf. A dying world asks only that you rest an instant from | attack upon yourself, that it be healed. |
| Tx:27.53 | it. What occurred within the instant which love entered in without | attack will stay with you forever. Your healing will be one of its |
| Tx:27.62 | in which the dreamer is unconscious of what brought on the | attack against himself, he sees himself attacked unjustly and by |
| Tx:27.62 | he knows not what he does, but what is done to him. Yet is his own | attack upon himself apparent still, for it is he who bears the |
| Tx:27.64 | justifies my wrath, and you exist and think apart from me. While you | attack, I must be innocent. And what I suffer from is your attack.” |
| Tx:27.64 | While you attack, I must be innocent. And what I suffer from is your | attack.” No one who looks upon this “reasoning” exactly as it is |
| Tx:27.65 | And he must see it in another's hand if he would be a victim of | attack he did not choose. And thus he suffers from the wounds a knife |
| Tx:27.67 | was first beheld. In separation from your brother was the first | attack upon yourself begun. And it is this the world bears witness |
| Tx:27.81 | in the first. No one asleep and dreaming in the world remembers his | attack upon himself. No one believes there really was a time when he |
| Tx:27.83 | A timelessness in which is time made real; a part of God which can | attack itself; a separate brother as an enemy; a mind within a body, |
| Tx:27.86 | you are doing this unto yourself. No matter what the form of the | attack, this still is true. Whoever takes the role of enemy and of |
| Tx:28.20 | In dreams of murder and | attack are you the victim in a dying body slain. But in forgiving |
| Tx:28.22 | show him that his wishes have been done. Thus does he fear his own | attack but sees it at another's hands. As victim, he is suffering |
| Tx:28.22 | from its effects but not their cause. He authored not his own | attack, and he is innocent of what he caused. The miracle does |
| Tx:28.49 | will make war upon your Self, which seems to be your enemy, and will | attack your brother as a part of what you hate. There is no |
| Tx:28.54 | as victim. It accepts no role but does what it is told, without | attack. |
| Tx:28.57 | No one can suffer if he does not see himself attacked and losing by | attack. Unstated and unheard in consciousness is every pledge to |
| Tx:28.57 | to sickness. Yet it is a promise to another to be hurt by him and to | attack him in return. |
| Tx:29.1 | could harbor just a hint of hate; His gentleness turn sometimes to | attack; and His eternal patience sometimes fail. All this do you |
| Tx:29.12 | and pain. For pain and sin are one illusion, as are hate and fear, | attack and guilt but one. Where they are causeless, their effects are |
| Tx:29.12 | of pain and sickness, misery and loss, and all effects of hatred and | attack. No more is pain your friend and guilt your god, and you |
| Tx:29.27 | In simplest form it can be said | attack is a response to function unfulfilled as you perceive the |
| Tx:29.28 | you allotted him? And does not this become the “reason” your | attack is justified? The dreams you think you like are those in which |
| Tx:29.35 | Father as His home? If God esteems him worthy of Himself, would you | attack him with the hands of hate? Who would lay bloody hands on |
| Tx:29.37 | for a dream. When dreams are shared, they lose the function of | attack and separation, even though it was for this that every dream |
| Tx:29.63 | knows of justice, not of penalty. But in the dream of judgment, you | attack and are condemned and wish to be the slave of idols which are |
| Tx:29.65 | against the child who thought he made them real. Yet can a dream | attack? Or can a toy grow large and dangerous and fierce and wild? |
| Tx:29.70 | made a new beginning, not another try to worship idols and to keep | attack. Forgiving dreams are kind to everyone who figures in the |
| Tx:30.10 | be times when you have judged already. Now the answer will provoke | attack unless you quickly straighten out your mind to want an answer |
| Tx:30.49 | You will | attack what does not satisfy, and thus you will not see you made it |
| Tx:30.49 | you made idols. They were made that this might be forgotten. You | attack but false ideas and never truthful ones. All idols are the |
| Tx:30.49 | the gap you think arose between yourself and what is true. And you | attack them for the things you think they represent. What lies beyond |
| Tx:30.53 | reality, and they bring fear because they hide the truth. Do not | attack what you have made to let you be deceived, for thus you prove |
| Tx:30.53 | let you be deceived, for thus you prove that you have been deceived. | Attack has power to make illusions real. Yet what it makes is |
| Tx:30.53 | worship, for they are not there. Yet this is equally forgotten in | attack. God's Son needs no defense against his dreams. His idols do |
| Tx:30.58 | Here, it is thought that understanding is acquired by | attack. There, it is clear that by attack is understanding lost. The |
| Tx:30.58 | that understanding is acquired by attack. There, it is clear that by | attack is understanding lost. The folly of pursuing guilt as goal is |
| Tx:30.70 | Anger is never justified. | Attack has no foundation. It is here escape from fear begins and will |
| Tx:30.70 | rests and is but natural. You are not asked to offer pardon where | attack is due and would be justified. For this would mean that you |
| Tx:30.70 | a way which is not justified, your pardon will become the answer to | attack that has been made. And thus is pardon inappropriate, by being |
| Tx:30.71 | foundation. You do not forgive the unforgivable nor overlook a real | attack that calls for punishment. Salvation does not lie in being |
| Tx:30.71 | be asked to sacrifice your rights when you return forgiveness for | attack. But you are merely asked to see forgiveness as the natural |
| Tx:30.72 | rise to take the place of dreams of terror. Fear cannot arise unless | attack is justified, and if it had a real foundation, pardon would |
| Tx:30.72 | uphold the guilt you would “forgive.” Unjustified forgiveness is | attack. And this is all the world can ever give. It pardons “sinners” |
| Tx:31.10 | past each seeming call to death, that sings behind each murderous | attack and pleads that love restore the dying world! You do not |
| Tx:31.22 | before the new without your opposition or intent. There will be no | attack upon the things you thought were precious and in need of care. |
| Tx:31.26 | that you believe them to be yours and therefore meriting a “just” | attack. |
| Tx:31.27 | if you did not believe that they are your reality? And why do you | attack them everywhere, except you hate yourself? Are you a sin? You |
| Tx:31.27 | you hate yourself? Are you a sin? You answer “yes” whenever you | attack, for by attack do you assert that you are guilty and must give |
| Tx:31.27 | Are you a sin? You answer “yes” whenever you attack, for by | attack do you assert that you are guilty and must give as you |
| Tx:31.27 | deserve but what you are? If you did not believe that you deserved | attack, it never would occur to you to give attack to anyone at all. |
| Tx:31.27 | that you deserved attack, it never would occur to you to give | attack to anyone at all. Why should you? What would be the gain to |
| Tx:31.30 | prisoner to the snarling dogs of hate and evil, sickness and | attack, of pain and age, of grief and suffering. Here are the |
| Tx:31.45 | who would be generous and good. This aspect never makes the first | attack. But every day a hundred little things make small assaults |
| Tx:31.46 | of innocence the concept of the self so proudly wears can tolerate | attack in self-defense, for is it not a well-known fact the world |
| Tx:31.69 | could not recognize your “evil” thoughts as long as you see value in | attack. You will perceive them sometimes, but will not see them as |
| W1:21.3 | is not so. It is merely an example of the belief that some forms of | attack are more justified than others. |
| W1:21.4 | As you search your mind for all the forms in which | attack thoughts present themselves, hold each one in mind and tell |
| W1:22.1 | Today's idea accurately describes the way anyone who holds | attack thoughts in his mind must see the world. Having projected his |
| W1:22.1 | onto the world, he sees vengeance about to strike at him. His own | attack is thus perceived as self defense. This becomes an |
| W1:22.1 | until he is willing to change how he sees. Otherwise, thoughts of | attack and counter-attack will preoccupy him and people his entire |
| W1:22.2 | You made what you would destroy—everything that you hate and would | attack and kill. All that you fear does not exist. |
| W1:23.2 | If the cause of the world you see is | attack thoughts, you must learn that it is these thoughts which you |
| W1:23.3 | of “external reality” is a pictorial representation of your own | attack thoughts. One can well ask if this can be called seeing. Is |
| W1:23.6 | eyes and devote about a minute to searching your mind for as many | attack thoughts as occur to you. As each one crosses your mind say: |
| W1:23.7 | I can escape from the world by giving up | attack thoughts about _____. |
| W1:23.8 | Hold each | attack thought in mind as you say this, and then dismiss that thought |
| W1:23.9 | of the world you see. When you finally realize that thoughts of | attack and of being attacked are not different, you will be ready to |
| W1:26.1 | that if you can be attacked, you are not invulnerable. You see | attack as a real threat. That is because you believe that you can |
| W1:26.1 | as a real threat. That is because you believe that you can really | attack. And what would have effects through you must also have |
| W1:26.2 | Because your | attack thoughts will be projected, you will fear attack. And if you |
| W1:26.2 | Because your attack thoughts will be projected, you will fear | attack. And if you fear attack, you must believe that you are not |
| W1:26.2 | thoughts will be projected, you will fear attack. And if you fear | attack, you must believe that you are not invulnerable. Attack |
| W1:26.2 | if you fear attack, you must believe that you are not invulnerable. | Attack thoughts therefore make you vulnerable in your own mind, which |
| W1:26.2 | therefore make you vulnerable in your own mind, which is where the | attack thoughts are. Attack thoughts and invulnerability cannot be |
| W1:26.2 | vulnerable in your own mind, which is where the attack thoughts are. | Attack thoughts and invulnerability cannot be accepted together. They |
| W1:26.3 | The idea for today introduces the thought that you always | attack yourself. If attack thoughts must entail the belief that you |
| W1:26.3 | for today introduces the thought that you always attack yourself. If | attack thoughts must entail the belief that you are vulnerable, their |
| W1:26.4 | is the result of your own thoughts. Nothing except your thoughts can | attack you. Nothing except your thoughts can make you think you are |
| W1:26.14 | That thought is an | attack upon myself. |
| W1:39.6 | form they appear—uneasiness, depression, anger, fear, worry, | attack, insecurity, and so on. Whatever form they take, they are |
| W1:46.11 | No fear is possible in a mind beloved of God. There is no need to | attack, because Love has forgiven me. |
| W1:55.3 | is hardly the representation of loving thoughts. It is a picture of | attack on everything by everything. It is anything but a reflection |
| W1:55.3 | reflection of the Love of God and the love of His Son. It is my own | attack thoughts which give rise to this picture. My loving thoughts |
| W1:55.4 | [23] I can escape from the world by giving up | attack thoughts. Herein lies my salvation, and nowhere else. Without |
| W1:55.4 | attack thoughts. Herein lies my salvation, and nowhere else. Without | attack thoughts I could not see a world of attack. As forgiveness |
| W1:55.4 | and nowhere else. Without attack thoughts I could not see a world of | attack. As forgiveness allows love to return to my awareness, I will |
| W1:56.2 | [26] My | attack thoughts are attacking my invulnerability. How can I know who |
| W1:56.2 | How can I know who I am when I see myself as under constant | attack? Pain, illness, loss, age, and death seem to threaten me. All |
| W1:56.6 | In my own mind, behind all my insane thoughts of separation and | attack, is the knowledge that all is one forever. I have not lost the |
| W1:62.2 | Creator. Now you are learning how to remember the truth. For this, | attack must be replaced by forgiveness so that thoughts of life may |
| W1:62.3 | Remember that in every | attack you call upon your own weakness, while every time you forgive |
| W1:72.1 | opposite of God's, we have not yet emphasized that it is an active | attack on His plan and a deliberate attempt to destroy it. In the |
| W1:72.1 | attack on His plan and a deliberate attempt to destroy it. In the | attack, God is assigned the attributes which are actually associated |
| W1:72.3 | here, it is perhaps not so apparent why holding grievances is an | attack on God's plan for salvation. But let us consider the kinds of |
| W1:72.6 | it. And it asserts that his salvation must be death, projecting this | attack onto God and holding Him responsible for it. |
| W1:72.10 | as we are. To see our Self as separate from the body is to end the | attack on God's plan for salvation and to accept it instead. And |
| W1:72.11 | been accomplished in us. To achieve this goal, we must replace | attack with acceptance. As long as we attack it, we cannot understand |
| W1:72.11 | this goal, we must replace attack with acceptance. As long as we | attack it, we cannot understand what God's plan for us is. We are |
| W1:72.19 | Holding grievances is an | attack on God's plan for salvation. Let me accept it instead. What is |
| W1:73.2 | are necessary to maintain it, peoples it with figures that seem to | attack you and call for “righteous” judgment. They become the |
| W1:84.5 | no grievances. Grievances are completely alien to love. Grievances | attack love and keep its light obscure. If I hold grievances I am |
| W1:84.5 | my Self. My Self thus becomes alien to me. I am determined not to | attack my Self today, so that I can remember who I am. |
| W1:84.7 | This is no justification for denying my Self. I will not use this to | attack love. Let this not tempt me to attack myself. |
| W1:84.7 | Self. I will not use this to attack love. Let this not tempt me to | attack myself. |
| W1:86.5 | [72] Holding grievances is an | attack on God's plan for salvation. Holding grievances is an attempt |
| W1:86.7 | not see the grounds for my salvation. This calls for salvation, not | attack. |
| W1:87.5 | afraid only when I believe that there is another will. I try to | attack only when I am afraid, and only when I try to attack can I |
| W1:87.5 | will. I try to attack only when I am afraid, and only when I try to | attack can I believe that my eternal safety is threatened. Today I |
| W1:88.2 | [75] The light has come. In choosing salvation rather than | attack, I merely choose to recognize what is already here. Salvation |
| W1:88.2 | what is already here. Salvation is a decision made already. | Attack and grievances are not there to choose. That is why I always |
| W1:93.5 | It does not battle with the Son of God. It does not hurt him nor | attack his peace. It has not changed creation nor reduced eternal |
| W1:99.4 | illusions bring and offer means by which they are undone without | attack and with no touch of pain? What but a thought of God could be |
| W1:107.4 | Without illusions there could be no fear, no doubt, and no | attack. When truth has come, all pain is over, for there is no room |
| W1:107.6 | gift of healing, for the truth needs no defense, and therefore no | attack is possible. Illusions can be brought to truth to be |
| W1:121.4 | eyes and shrieks as it beholds its own projections rising to | attack its miserable parody of life. It wants to live, yet wishes it |
| W1:122.2 | upon your eyelids so you see no dreams of fear and evil, malice, and | attack. And when you wake again, it offers you another day of |
| W1:126.6 | understand forgiveness. As you see it, it is but a check upon overt | attack, without requiring correction in your mind. It cannot give you |
| W1:134.11 | laid Its blessing on it, are all dreams of evil and of hatred and | attack brought silently to truth. They are not kept to swell and |
| W1:134.19 | day, for there will be so many times when you forget its meaning and | attack yourself. When this occurs, allow your mind to see through |
| W1:135.1 | Who would defend himself unless he thought he was attacked, that the | attack is real, and that his own defense can save himself? And herein |
| W1:135.18 | it is your reality which is the “threat” that your defenses would | attack, obscure, and take apart and crucify. |
| W1:136.2 | And like all the rest, its purpose is to hide reality, | attack it, change it, render it inept, distort it, twist it, or |
| W1:136.7 | and as wholes within themselves, they become symbols standing for | attack upon the whole, successful in effect, and never to be seen as |
| W1:136.21 | to be preserved by careful watching. If you let your mind harbor | attack thoughts, yield to judgment, or make plans against |
| W1:136.21 | have again misplaced yourself, and made a bodily identity which will | attack the body, for the mind is sick. Give instant remedy should |
| W1:136.22 | a defense against the truth, but I am not a body. And my mind cannot | attack. So I cannot be sick. |
| W1:137.3 | But healing is accomplished as he sees the body has no power to | attack the universal oneness of God's Son. |
| W1:137.16 | to make well all that was sick and offer blessing where there was | attack. Nor will we let this function be forgot as every hour of the |
| W1:153.1 | this lesson well. The world provides no safety. It is rooted in | attack and all its “gifts” of seeming safety are illusory deceptions. |
| W1:153.2 | rise but to defensiveness. For threat brings anger, anger makes | attack seem reasonable, honestly provoked, and righteous in the name |
| W1:153.3 | in that one, until escape no longer can be hoped for nor obtained. | Attack, defense; defense, attack, become the circles of the hours and |
| W1:153.3 | no longer can be hoped for nor obtained. Attack, defense; defense, | attack, become the circles of the hours and the days that bind the |
| W1:153.5 | your defensiveness. For you behold the Son of God as but a victim to | attack by fantasies, by dreams, and by illusions he has made; yet |
| W1:153.6 | can never be attacked because it recognizes strength so great | attack is folly or a silly game a tired child might play when he |
| W1:153.9 | created unassailable, without all thought or wish or dream in which | attack has any meaning. Now we cannot fear, for we have left all |
| W1:161.6 | Bodies | attack but minds do not. This thought is surely reminiscent of our |
| W1:161.6 | “enemy” Christ's vision does not see. The body is the target for | attack, for no one thinks he hates a mind. Yet what but mind directs |
| W1:161.6 | no one thinks he hates a mind. Yet what but mind directs the body to | attack? What else could be the seat of fear except what thinks of |
| W1:161.8 | Who sees a brother as a body sees him as fear's symbol. And he will | attack because what he beholds is his own fear external to himself, |
| W1:161.8 | what he beholds is his own fear external to himself, poised to | attack and howling to unite with him again. Mistake not the intensity |
| W1:161.10 | Attack on him is enemy to you, for you will not perceive that in his | |
| W1:161.16 | from fear. Be sure you use it instantly, should you be tempted to | attack a brother and perceive in him the symbol of your fear. And you |
| W1:170.1 | intent to hurt. This can have no exception. When you think that you | attack in self defense, you mean that to be cruel is protection; you |
| W1:170.1 | you believe to hurt another brings you freedom. And you mean that to | attack is to exchange the state in which you are for something |
| W1:170.2 | How thoroughly insane is the idea that to defend from fear is to | attack! For here is fear begot and fed with blood, to make it grow |
| W1:170.4 | It seems to be the enemy without that you | attack. Yet your defense sets up an enemy within—an alien thought |
| W1:170.5 | it is obvious ideas must leave their source. For it is you who make | attack and must have first conceived of it. Yet you attack outside |
| W1:170.5 | is you who make attack and must have first conceived of it. Yet you | attack outside yourself and separate your mind from him who is to be |
| W1:181.1 | to transcend doubt and lack of sure conviction in yourself. When you | attack a brother, you proclaim that he is limited by what you have |
| W1:185.14 | the call of every mind, the hope that lies beyond despair, the love | attack would hide, the brotherhood that hate has sought to sever, but |
| W1:186.7 | relates to you. And as He speaks, the image trembles and seeks to | attack the threat it does not know, sensing its basis crumble. Let it |
| W1:189.3 | is inconceivable to those who see a world of hatred, rising from | attack, poised to avenge, to murder and destroy. |
| W1:190.2 | of fierce retaliation for a crime that could not be committed, for | attack on what is wholly unassailable. It is a nightmare of |
| W1:190.9 | still at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and of fear. Let no | attack enter with you. Lay down the cruel sword of judgment that you |
| W1:192.1 | what can such a function mean within a world of envy, hatred, and | attack? Therefore you have a function in the world in its own terms. |
| W1:192.5 | It cannot think that it will die nor be the prey of merciless | attack. Anger becomes impossible, and where is terror then? What |
| W1:192.5 | What fears could still assail those who have lost the source of all | attack, the core of anguish, and the seat of fear? |
| W1:192.7 | we grope in darkness, using reason but to justify our rage and our | attack. Our understanding is so limited that what we think we |
| W1:194.9 | will be soon replaced by love's reflection. And if we are tempted to | attack, we will appeal to Him Who guards our rest to make the choice |
| W1:196.1 | to harm yourself nor make your body slave to vengeance. You will not | attack yourself, and you will realize that to attack another is but |
| W1:196.1 | You will not attack yourself, and you will realize that to | attack another is but to attack yourself. You will be free of the |
| W1:196.1 | yourself, and you will realize that to attack another is but to | attack yourself. You will be free of the insane belief that to attack |
| W1:196.1 | to attack yourself. You will be free of the insane belief that to | attack a brother saves yourself. And you will understand his safety |
| W1:196.6 | of madness you believe if you accept the fearful thought you can | attack another and be free yourself. Until this form is changed, |
| W1:196.10 | itself as split. And this had been concealed while you believed | attack could be directed outward and returned from outside to within. |
| W1:197.1 | You make attempts at kindness and forgiveness. Yet you turn them to | attack again unless you find external gratitude and lavish thanks. |
| W1:197.5 | love, and adding to your never-ending joy, while you forgive but to | attack again. |
| W1:198.7 | has many seeming separate haunts where mercy has no meaning and | attack appears as justified. Yet all are one—a place where death is |
| W1:198.8 | to believe that They could die! How foolish to believe you can | attack! How mad to think that you could be condemned and that the |
| W1:199.2 | and with strength and power to do whatever it is asked. | Attack thoughts cannot enter such a mind because it has been given to |
| W1:216.1 | can be but myself I crucify. All that I do, I do unto myself. If I | attack, I suffer. But if I forgive, salvation will be given me. I am |
| W2:WIW.2 | The world was made as an | attack on God. It symbolizes fear. And what is fear except love's |
| W2:247.1 | Sin is the symbol of | attack. Behold it anywhere, and I will suffer. For forgiveness is the |
| W2:249.1 | is over, loss becomes impossible, and anger makes no sense. | Attack is gone, and madness has an end. What suffering is now |
| W2:250.1 | reduced to frailty nor perceive the lacks in him with which I would | attack his sovereignty. |
| W2:259.1 | obscuring God's creation, giving love the attributes of fear and of | attack? |
| W2:WIB.2 | to them. For if his oneness still remained untouched, who could | attack and who could be attacked? Who could be victor? Who could be |
| W2:261.1 | not security in danger, nor attempt to find my peace in murderous | attack. I live in God. In Him I find my refuge and my strength. In |
| W2:281.2 | Father placed me safe in Heaven, watching over me. And I would not | attack the Son He loves, for what He loves is mine to love as well. |
| W2:288.1 | lose the way to walk to You. My brother is my savior. Let me not | attack the savior You have given me. But let me honor him who bears |
| W2:WIRW.3 | What need has such a mind for thoughts of death, | attack, and murder? What can it perceive surrounding it but safety, |
| W2:299.2 | It is not mine to be destroyed by sin. It is not mine to suffer from | attack. Illusions can obscure it but cannot put out its radiance nor |
| W2:330.1 | us this day accept forgiveness as our only function. Why should we | attack our minds and give them images of pain? Why should we teach |
| W2:WIE.3 | can he know of fear and punishment, of sin and guilt, of hatred and | attack when all there is surrounding him is everlasting peace, |
| W2:332.1 | Truth undoes its evil dreams by shining them away. Truth never makes | attack. It merely is. And by its presence is the mind recalled from |
| W2:341.2 | Let us not then | attack our sinlessness. For it contains the Word of God to us, and in |
| W2:FL.5 | are restored to sanity in which we understand that anger is insane, | attack is mad, and vengeance merely foolish fantasy. We have been |
| M:4.16 | must be safe. Joy goes with gentleness as surely as grief attends | attack. God's teachers trust in Him. And they are sure His Teacher |
| M:7.4 | is a mistake in the form of lack of trust. As such, it is an | attack. Usually it seems to be just the opposite. It does appear |
| M:7.4 | appear unreasonable at first to be told that continued concern is | attack. It has all the appearances of love. Yet love without trust is |
| M:12.5 | you use the body for, it will become to you. Use it for sin or for | attack, which is the same as sin, and you will see it as sinful. |
| M:13.7 | to God. It is its holiness that makes you safe. It is denied if you | attack any brother for anything. For it is here the split with God |
| M:17.1 | teacher of God to master. His first responsibility in this is not to | attack it. If a magic thought arouses anger in any form, God's |
| M:17.3 | but release for teacher and pupil who have shared in one intent. | Attack can enter only if perception of separate goals has entered. |
| M:19.1 | In this world, however, forgiveness depends on justice since all | attack can only be unjust. Justice is the Holy Spirit's verdict upon |
| M:19.5 | From this one standpoint does it judge, and this alone. Here all | attack and condemnation becomes meaningless and indefensible. |
| M:20.3 | than this, given forgiveness there must be peace. For what except | attack will lead to war? And what but peace is opposite to war? Here |
| M:22.3 | the body autonomy, separates it from the mind, and keeps the idea of | attack inviolate. If the body could be sick, Atonement would be |
| M:27.7 | in which death plays a part. Do not believe in cruelty nor let | attack conceal the truth from you. What seems to die has but been |
| M:28.3 | are needed. Vision is wholly corrected and all mistakes undone. | Attack is meaningless, and peace has come. The goal of the curriculum |
| M:28.3 | spreads over the world, forgiving all things and replacing all | attack. The whole reversal is accomplished. Nothing is left to |
| M:29.4 | it. His decisions bring benefit to all, being wholly devoid of | attack. And therefore incapable of arousing guilt. |

| Tx:6.2 | consider the sanity of the premises on which it rests. You cannot be | attacked; attack has no justification; and you are responsible for |
| Tx:6.26 | what you project, you continue to attack it because you have already | attacked it by projecting it. By doing this unconsciously, you try to |
| Tx:6.26 | this unconsciously, you try to keep the fact that you must have | attacked yourself first out of awareness and thus imagine that you |
| Tx:7.80 | what you are. Deny this and you will attack, believing you have been | attacked. But see the love of God in you, and you will see it |
| Tx:7.87 | To fragment is to break into pieces, and mind cannot attack or be | attacked. The belief that it can, a fallacy which the ego always |
| Tx:8.57 | his power and glory are lost to you, and so are yours. You have | attacked him, but you must have attacked yourself first. Do not see |
| Tx:8.57 | to you, and so are yours. You have attacked him, but you must have | attacked yourself first. Do not see him this way for your own |
| Tx:9.7 | more than yours are of you. Accept his errors as real, and you have | attacked yourself. If you would find your way and keep it, see only |
| Tx:9.74 | You have not | attacked God, and you do love Him. Can you change your reality? No |
| Tx:9.74 | you hate what you think you are. And this, and only this, can be | attacked by you. What you think you are can be hateful, and what this |
| Tx:10.49 | you have denied yourself. By believing that you have successfully | attacked truth, you are believing that attack has power. Very simply, |
| Tx:11.2 | This is quite evidently a mental split in which you have | attacked the integrity of your mind and pitted one level within it |
| Tx:11.5 | for in both a brother's errors are “uncovered” and he is then | attacked for his own good. What can this be but projection? For his |
| Tx:11.43 | your mind, you must have perceived yourself as weak. Because you had | attacked yourself and believed that the attack was effective, you |
| Tx:11.44 | you are recognizing that attack has no effect. Although you have | attacked yourself, and very brutally, you will demonstrate that |
| Tx:11.46 | therefore not real. You could not trust your own love when you have | attacked it. You cannot learn of perfect love with a split mind |
| Tx:12.20 | what he had made, but still more did he fear his real Father, having | attacked his own glorious equality with Him. |

| Tx:14.39 | nature is clearly revealed? What disappears in light is not | attacked. It merely vanishes because it is not true. Different |
| Tx:16.53 | How can you grant unlimited power to what you think you have | attacked? So fearful has the truth become to you that unless it is |

| Tx:18.52 | can deceive itself. And this is all it does when it believes it has | attacked the body. It can project its guilt, but it will not lose it |
| Tx:18.61 | There is no violence at all in this escape. The body is not | attacked, but simply properly perceived. It does not limit you merely |
| Tx:21.64 | this fact is your release. Neither your brother nor yourself can be | attacked alone. But neither can accept a miracle instead without the |
| Tx:23.8 | This is no war—only the mad belief the Will of God can be | attacked and overthrown. You may identify with this belief, but never |
| Tx:24.6 | What God created cannot be | attacked, for there is nothing in the universe unlike itself. But |
| Tx:24.7 | your specialness is an illusion. He who is “worse” than you must be | attacked so that your specialness can live on his defeat. For |
| Tx:24.29 | No, His Son is safe, resting on Him. It is your specialness that is | attacked by everything that walks and breathes or creeps or crawls or |
| Tx:24.34 | in yourself alone. Everything else becomes your enemy—feared and | attacked, deadly and dangerous, hated and worthy only of destruction. |
| Tx:24.59 | against intrusion and every window barred against the light. Always | attacked and always furious, with anger always fully justified, you |
| Tx:24.66 | not your foolish fancies frighten you. What is immortal cannot be | attacked; what is but temporal has no effect. Only the purpose that |
| Tx:25.30 | not a sin. For what it claimed could never be has been. Sin is | attacked by punishment and so preserved. But to forgive it is to |
| Tx:27.13 | injured by his brother and could love and trust him still? He has | attacked and will attack again. Protect him not, because your damaged |
| Tx:27.62 | of what brought on the attack against himself, he sees himself | attacked unjustly and by something not himself. He is the victim of |
| Tx:28.57 | is the secret oath you take again, whenever you perceive yourself | attacked. No one can suffer if he does not see himself attacked and |
| Tx:28.57 | yourself attacked. No one can suffer if he does not see himself | attacked and losing by attack. Unstated and unheard in consciousness |
| Tx:29.18 | The body that is asked to be a god will be | attacked because its nothingness has not been recognized. And so it |
| Tx:29.27 | or someone else, but where it is perceived, it will be there it is | attacked. Depression or assault must be the theme of every dream, for |
| Tx:29.70 | Forgiving dreams remind you that you live in safety and have not | attacked yourself. So do your childish terrors melt away and dreams |
| Tx:30.6 | to fear because it contradicts what you perceive, and so you feel | attacked. And therefore angry. There are rules by which this will not |
| Tx:30.49 | entirely and rush to its embrace. The truth could never be | attacked. And this you knew when you made idols. They were made that |
| Tx:30.49 | the things you think they represent. What lies beyond them cannot be | attacked. |
| Tx:30.52 | safe if they obeyed your rules. They must be neither cherished nor | attacked but merely looked upon as children's toys without a single |

| W1:136.12 | apart from all of this. Defenses are plans to defeat what cannot be | attacked. What is unalterable cannot change. And what is wholly |

| Tx:7.60 | The Holy Spirit undoes illusions without | attacking them merely because He cannot perceive them at all. They |
| Tx:7.62 | seems to contradict His, and this makes it appear as if you are | attacking Him. We have repeatedly emphasized that the ego does |
| Tx:7.78 | it from you. One must be fearful if he believes that his brother is | attacking him to tear the Kingdom of Heaven from him. This is the |
| Tx:8.4 | as opponents are part of your peace, which you are giving up by | attacking them. How can you have what you give up? You share to have, |
| Tx:9.74 | reality? No one can will to destroy himself. When you think you are | attacking yourself, it is a sure sign that you hate what you think |
| Tx:11.44 | brutally, you will demonstrate that nothing happened. Therefore, by | attacking you have not done anything. Once you realize this, there is |
| Tx:12.13 | think you control would vanish. The Holy Spirit, then, seems to be | attacking your fortress, for you would shut out God, and He does not |

| Tx:4.66 | which is used only for protection, cannot be wrong because it never | attacks. Yours is so distorted that you believe I was mistaken in |
| Tx:7.56 | the power of the mind, which the ego denies. This means that the ego | attacks what is preserving it, and this must be a source of extreme |
| Tx:7.79 | of this as you are, are out to take God from you. Whenever a brother | attacks another, this is what he believes. Projection always sees |

| Tx:10.53 | obsessed with the conviction that separation is salvation, the ego | attacks everything it perceives by breaking it up into small and |
| Tx:11.26 | that the ego is to be saved and to be saved by attack. If he | attacks, you are agreeing with this belief, and if you attack, you |
| Tx:11.44 | of your invulnerability has more than negative value. If your | attacks on yourself have failed to weaken you, you are still strong. |

| Tx:4.33 | can only turn to other egos and try to unite with them in a feeble | attempt at identification or attack them in an equally feeble show of |
| Tx:4.39 | is why psychologists are concentrating increasingly on the ego in an | attempt to unify their clearly unrelated data. It need hardly be said |
| Tx:4.39 | unify their clearly unrelated data. It need hardly be said that an | attempt to relate the unrelated cannot succeed. |
| Tx:4.77 | and carrying pi to infinity are good examples. A more recent ego | attempt is particularly noteworthy. The idea of preserving the body |
| Tx:4.96 | and does not respond at all to anything else. Nor does it make any | attempt to establish what is true. It knows that what is true is |
| Tx:4.103 | of those in need of help, but it is often little more than a painful | attempt on the part of the halt to lead the blind. |
| Tx:5.2 | Those who | attempt to heal without being wholly joyous themselves call forth |
| Tx:5.64 | because as soon as you regard sin as a lack you will automatically | attempt to remedy the situation. And you will succeed. The ego |
| Tx:5.77 | by the ego, is particularly vicious. It is used, in fact, as an | attempt to guarantee its survival beyond itself. Actually, all the |
| Tx:6.61 | the same mind, you can overcome death because I did. Death is an | attempt to resolve conflict by not willing at all. Like any other |
| Tx:7.66 | cannot make the meaningless meaningful. This can only be an insane | attempt. |
| Tx:7.84 | purpose. It projects conflict from your mind to other minds in an | attempt to persuade you that you have gotten rid of it. This has |
| Tx:7.85 | be projected, precisely because it cannot be fully shared. Any | attempt to keep part of it and get rid of another part does not |
| Tx:7.88 | have laid aside all anger and all attack, because they come from an | attempt to project responsibility for your own errors. But having |
| Tx:8.11 | oppose God's Will. This unnatural lesson cannot be learned, but the | attempt to learn it is a violation of your own freedom and makes you |
| Tx:8.85 | the will, wants to separate the body from the mind. This is an | attempt to destroy it, yet the ego actually believes that it is |
| Tx:9.3 | Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not | attempt to understand anything that arises from it. Since He does not |
| Tx:9.7 | love. Atonement cannot be separate, because it comes from love. Any | attempt you make to correct a brother means that you believe |
| Tx:9.49 | for despair. It is without hope because it is not real. It is an | attempt to counteract your littleness, based on the belief that the |
| Tx:9.49 | because it always involves attack. It is a delusional | attempt to outdo but not to undo. We said before that the ego |
| Tx:9.90 | by them He established the universe as what it is. No false gods you | attempt to interpose between yourself and your reality affect truth |
| Tx:10.53 | only through acceptance, for to analyze means to separate out. The | attempt to understand totality by breaking it up is clearly the |
| Tx:10.55 | The ego makes no | attempt to understand this, and it is clearly not understandable, but |
| Tx:10.55 | and it is clearly not understandable, but the ego does make every | attempt to demonstrate it, and this it does constantly. Analyzing to |
| Tx:11.2 | your own ego-involvement. The whole process represents a clear-cut | attempt to demonstrate your own ability to understand what you |
| Tx:11.7 | true. He gives them to you because they are for you. Do not | attempt to “help” a brother in your way, for you cannot help |
| Tx:11.30 | reality. Everything you perceive as the outside world is merely your | attempt to maintain your ego identification, for everyone believes |
| Tx:11.43 | and all your brothers as equal and regarding yourself as weaker, you | attempt to “equalize” the situation you have made. You use attack to |
| Tx:11.48 | do not know the meaning of love, and that is your handicap. Do not | attempt to teach yourselves what you do not understand, and do not |
| Tx:11.85 | another, it will escape punishment. All this is but the delusional | attempt of the mind to deny itself and escape the penalty of denial. |
| Tx:11.85 | mind to deny itself and escape the penalty of denial. It is not an | attempt to relinquish denial but to hold on to it. For it is guilt |
| Tx:12.6 | it was confronted with the real guiltlessness of God's Son, it did | attempt to kill him, and the reason it gave was that guiltlessness is |
| Tx:13.22 | you put it there. It is inevitable that those who suffer guilt will | attempt to displace it, because they do believe in it. Yet, though |
| Tx:13.91 | to teach him guilt instead of love. Give up this frantic and insane | attempt, which cheats you of the joy of living with your God and |
| Tx:14.22 | perceives the meaning in your alien language. He will not | attempt to communicate the meaningless. But He will separate out all |
| Tx:14.60 | Your past is what you have taught yourselves. Let it all go. Do not | attempt to understand any event or anything or anyone in its light, |
| Tx:14.66 | By this refusal to | attempt to teach yourself what you do not know, the Guide Whom God |
| Tx:15.18 | hours, and even years in chaining your brothers to your egos in an | attempt to support it and uphold its weakness, do not perceive the |
| Tx:15.33 | willing to leave salvation to the plan of God and unwilling to | attempt to grasp for peace yourself, salvation will be given you. Yet |
| Tx:15.39 | simple. Complexity is of the ego and is nothing more than the ego's | attempt to obscure the obvious. |
| Tx:15.45 | for without it you do not understand anything. You would make no | attempt to judge because it would be quite apparent to you that you |
| Tx:15.50 | Spirit for His use. There is no substitute for love. If you would | attempt to substitute one aspect of love for another, you have placed |
| Tx:15.63 | ever was. Yet as long as you prefer to be something else, or would | attempt to be nothing else and something else together, the language |
| Tx:15.74 | cannot be love and must be anger. All anger is nothing more than an | attempt to make someone feel guilty, and this attempt is the only |
| Tx:15.74 | nothing more than an attempt to make someone feel guilty, and this | attempt is the only basis which the ego accepts for special |
| Tx:15.76 | that to be with a body is companionship, you will be compelled to | attempt to keep your brother in his body, held there by guilt. And |
| Tx:15.83 | The Holy Spirit is God's | attempt to free you of what He does not understand. And because of |
| Tx:15.83 | you of what He does not understand. And because of the Source of the | attempt, it will succeed. The Holy Spirit asks you to respond as God |
| Tx:15.100 | no alternatives but these. You have tried many compromises in the | attempt to avoid recognizing the one decision which must be made. And |
| Tx:16.6 | release. The unredeemed cannot redeem, yet they have a Redeemer. | Attempt to teach Him not. You are the learner; He the Teacher. Do not |
| Tx:16.8 | You will | attempt to do this only in secrecy. And you will think that, by |
| Tx:16.30 | out of sight. It is essential to bring it into sight and to make no | attempt to hide it. For it is the attempt to balance hate with love |
| Tx:16.30 | bring it into sight and to make no attempt to hide it. For it is the | attempt to balance hate with love that makes love meaningless to you. |
| Tx:16.32 | The special love relationship is an | attempt to limit the destructive effects of hate by finding a haven |
| Tx:16.32 | of hate by finding a haven in the storm of guilt. It makes no | attempt to rise above the storm into the sunlight. On the contrary, |
| Tx:16.35 | Every illusion is one of fear, whatever form it takes. And the | attempt to escape from one illusion into another must fail. If you |
| Tx:16.36 | be distinguished from illusion: The special love relationship is an | attempt [to bring love into separation. And, as such, it is nothing |
| Tx:16.44 | Very simply, the | attempt to make guilty is always directed against God. For the ego |
| Tx:16.46 | special relationship is the renunciation of the love of God and the | attempt to secure for the self the specialness which He denied. It is |
| Tx:16.48 | joining hell and Heaven and making them indistinguishable. And the | attempt to find the imagined “best” of both worlds has merely led to |
| Tx:16.48 | a kind of union from which union is excluded, and the basis for the | attempt at union rests on exclusion. What better example could there |
| Tx:16.55 | it. See in the special relationship nothing more than a meaningless | attempt to raise other gods before Him and by worshiping them to |
| Tx:16.70 | the special relationship. For the special relationship is an | attempt to reenact the past and change it. Imagined slights, |
| Tx:16.76 | For a time you may | attempt to bring illusions into the holy instant to hinder your full |
| Tx:16.76 | between your experience of truth and illusion. Yet you will not | attempt this long. In the holy instant, the power of the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:17.6 | fantasy, you are refusing to forgive yourself for just this same | attempt. And you are holding both of you away from truth and from |
| Tx:17.16 | the name of love. And finally why all such relationships become the | attempt at union through the body, for only bodies can be seen as |
| Tx:17.19 | the other really brings to it, the “better” it becomes. Thus, the | attempt at union becomes a way of excluding even the one with whom |
| Tx:17.63 | aspect of the situation which seems to be difficult, the ego will | attempt to take this aspect elsewhere and resolve it there. And it |
| Tx:17.63 | it there. And it will seem to be successful, except that this | attempt conflicts with unity and must obscure the goal of truth. And |
| Tx:18.32 | it is necessary that you realize that you cannot do more. Do not | attempt to give the Holy Spirit what He does not ask, or you will add |
| Tx:18.36 | the answer as it is given. In preparing for the holy instant, do not | attempt to make yourself holy to be ready to receive it. That is but |
| Tx:18.42 | all fear and hatred from your mind. That is its function. Never | attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the Holy Spirit's help. |
| Tx:18.46 | is now impossible for either of you to experience fear alone or to | attempt to deal with it alone. Never believe that this is necessary |
| Tx:18.66 | have indeed achieved their instants of success. This course does not | attempt to teach more than they learned in time, but it does aim at |
| Tx:18.66 | by fighting against sin. [Enormous effort is expended in the | attempt to make holy what is hated and despised.] Nor is a lifetime |
| Tx:18.90 | an illusion of a foundation.] Try but to touch it and it disappears; | attempt to grasp it and your hands hold nothing. |
| Tx:19.20 | willed that he be forever. Is this humility? Or is it, rather, an | attempt to wrest creation away from truth and keep it separate? |
| Tx:19.21 | Any | attempt to reinterpret sin as error is always indefensible to the |
| Tx:19.44 | you would call. His home is in your holy relationship. Do not | attempt to stand between Him and His holy purpose, for it is yours. |
| Tx:20.39 | evaluated. Do you recognize the fear that rises from the meaningless | attempt to judge what lies so far beyond your judgment you cannot |
| Tx:20.65 | Your holy brother, sight of whom is your release, is no illusion. | Attempt to see him not in darkness, for your imaginings about him |
| Tx:21.4 | How foolish it is to | attempt to judge what could be seen instead. It is not necessary to |
| Tx:21.29 | brother with whom you have a limited relationship you hate. You may | attempt to keep the bargain in the name of “fairness,” sometimes |
| Tx:21.29 | perhaps more often of the other. Thus in the “fairness” you | attempt to ease the guilt that comes from the accepted purpose of the |
| Tx:22.31 | eyes behold it as solid granite, so thick it would be madness to | attempt to pass it. Yet reason sees through it easily because it is |
| Tx:22.61 | has not happened nor could be real. You do not see that this is your | attempt because you think the Father and the Son are separate. And |
| Tx:22.65 | the power of love is there, which makes all fear impossible? Do not | attempt to keep a little of the ego with this gift. For it was given |
| Tx:24.69 | This course makes no | attempt to teach what cannot easily be learned. Its scope does not |
| Tx:25.52 | false and make no sense at all. This is the choice you make. Do not | attempt to see it differently nor twist it into something it is not. |
| Tx:26.1 | must lose. Its focus on the body is apparent, for it is always an | attempt to limit loss. The body is itself a sacrifice—a giving up |
| Tx:26.10 | and it will do so while the problem lasts. It serves no purpose to | attempt to solve it in a special form. It will recur and then recur |
| Tx:26.59 | error does the world of sin and sacrifice arise. This world is an | attempt to prove your innocence while cherishing attack. Its failure |
| Tx:27.1 | The wish to be unfairly treated is a compromise | attempt that would combine attack and innocence. Who can combine the |
| Tx:27.37 | must be simple and be easily resolved.] It must be pointless to | attempt to solve a problem where the answer cannot be. Yet just as |
| Tx:27.38 | Attempt to solve no problems but within the holy instant's surety. | |
| Tx:27.43 | Therefore, | attempt to solve no problems in a world from which the answer has |
| Tx:28.17 | where its cause is given its effects. For sickness is a meaningless | attempt to give effects to causelessness and make it be a cause. |
| Tx:28.18 | Always in sickness does the Son of God | attempt to make himself his cause and not allow himself to be his |
| Tx:29.12 | It has been hopeless to | attempt to find the hope of peace upon a battleground. It has been |
| Tx:29.46 | Whenever you | attempt to reach a goal in which the body's betterment is cast as |
| W1:1.5 | the idea for the day, use it totally indiscriminately. Do not | attempt to apply it to everything you see, for these exercises should |
| W1:2.1 | do not concentrate on anything in particular, and do not | attempt to include everything in an area or you will introduce |
| W1:2.2 | to anything is merely that your eyes have lighted on it. Make no | attempt to include anything particular, but be sure that nothing is |
| W1:4.3 | of separating the meaningless from the meaningful. It is a first | attempt in the long-range purpose of learning to see the meaningless |
| W1:13.8 | signs of overt or covert fear which it may arouse. This is our first | attempt at stating an explicit cause and effect relationship of a |
| W1:19.6 | shortening the length of time involved if necessary. Do not | attempt more than four. |
| W1:20.1 | about our practice periods thus far. There has been virtually no | attempt to direct the time for undertaking them, minimal effort has |
| W1:20.2 | This is our first | attempt to introduce structure. Do not misconstrue it as an effort to |
| W1:27.6 | interval for using the idea when you wake or shortly afterwards and | attempt to adhere to it throughout the day. It will not be difficult |
| W1:28.7 | be accorded equal sincerity as today's idea is applied to it in an | attempt to acknowledge the equal value of them all in their |
| W1:33.1 | Today's idea is an | attempt to recognize that you can shift your perception of the world |
| W1:40.1 | every ten minutes would be highly desirable, and you are urged to | attempt this schedule and to adhere to it whenever possible. If you |
| W1:41.4 | yet representing all you see? Today we will make our first real | attempt to get past this dark and heavy cloud and to go through it to |
| W1:44.3 | Today we are going to | attempt to reach that light. For this purpose, we will use a form of |
| W1:45.3 | Where, then, are your real thoughts? Today we will | attempt to reach them. We will have to look for them in your mind |
| W1:45.4 | same general form that we used in applying yesterday's idea. We will | attempt to leave the unreal and seek for the real. We will deny the |
| W1:45.11 | that this is no idle game but an exercise in holiness and an | attempt to reach the Kingdom of Heaven. |
| W1:55.6 | my illusions about myself are real. It is for that purpose that I | attempt to use everyone and everything. It is this that I believe the |
| W1:65.6 | At first, make no | attempt to concentrate only on thoughts related to the idea for |
| W1:66.4 | even if it appears to be different. Today's exercises are an | attempt to go beyond these differences in appearance, and recognize a |
| W1:69.2 | Today let us make another real | attempt to reach the light in you. Before we undertake this in our |
| W1:69.5 | reality. They seem to be all there is to see. Therefore you do not | attempt to go through them and past them, which is the only way in |
| W1:69.5 | be really convinced of their lack of substance. We will make this | attempt today. |
| W1:69.8 | sure that it is given you, and you will yet receive it. Try, as you | attempt to go through the clouds to the light, to hold this |
| W1:70.4 | healing lies. You have tried to do just the opposite, making every | attempt, however distorted and fantastic it might be, to separate |
| W1:71.6 | to seek there only. Otherwise your purpose is divided, and you will | attempt to follow two plans for salvation which are diametrically |
| W1:72.1 | emphasized that it is an active attack on His plan and a deliberate | attempt to destroy it. In the attack, God is assigned the attributes |
| W1:72.3 | Although the | attempt to keep the limitations which a body would impose is obvious |
| W1:78.4 | Today we will | attempt to see God's Son. We will not let ourselves be blind to him; |
| W1:78.7 | Our longer practice periods today will see him in this role. We will | attempt to hold him in our mind, first as you now consider him. We |
| W1:79.6 | All this complexity is but a desperate | attempt not to recognize the problem and therefore not to let it be |
| W1:86.5 | is an attack on God's plan for salvation. Holding grievances is an | attempt to prove that God's plan for salvation will not work. Yet |
| W1:91.4 | your doubts would vanish. Today we will devote ourselves to the | attempt to let you feel this strength. When you have felt the |
| W1:94.3 | will again devote the first five minutes of each waking hour to the | attempt to feel the truth in you. Begin these times of searching with |
| W1:95.3 | We will | attempt today to be aware of only what can hear and see and what |
| W1:95.16 | Repeat this several times, and then | attempt to feel the meaning which the words convey. You are One Self, |
| W1:96.2 | if you would be saved. Until you have accepted this, you will | attempt endless lists of goals you cannot reach; a senseless series |
| W1:96.4 | A mind and body cannot both exist. Make no | attempt to reconcile the two, for one denies the other can be real. |
| W1:96.9 | We will | attempt today to find this thought, whose presence in your mind is |
| W1:100.6 | Today we will | attempt to understand joy is our function here. If you are sad, your |
| W1:101.4 | seek out such savage punishment? Who would not flee salvation and | attempt in every way he can to drown the Voice Which offers it to |
| W1:101.9 | So should you start your practice periods, and then | attempt again to find the joy these thoughts will introduce into your |

| W1:R3.10 | your learning not lie idly by between your longer practice periods. | Attempt to give your daily two ideas a brief but serious review each |
| W1:124.8 | an hour to the thought that you are one with God. This is our first | attempt at an extended period for which we give no rules nor special |
| W1:126.9 | Give 15 minutes twice today to the | attempt to understand today's idea. It is the thought by which |
| W1:130.6 | Today we will | attempt no compromise where none is possible. The world you see is |
| W1:130.7 | as one. We will not make a thousand meaningless distinctions, nor | attempt to bring with us a little part of unreality as we devote our |
| W1:133.2 | world, you ask for sorrow, not for happiness. This course does not | attempt to take from you the little that you have. It does not try to |
| W1:133.14 | with nothing to find everything and claim it as their own. We will | attempt to reach this state today, with self-deception laid aside and |
| W1:134.3 | the truth and not illusions. You conceive of pardon as a vain | attempt to look past what is there; to overlook the truth in an |
| W1:135.2 | And it is this you do when you | attempt to plan the future, activate the past, or organize the |
| W1:136.3 | in which the choice is made, you recognize exactly what you would | attempt to do and then proceed to think that it is done. |
| W1:168.1 | to us. Shall we not speak to Him? He is not distant. He makes no | attempt to hide from us. We try to hide from Him and suffer from |
| W1:I2.3 | It may be there, but you cannot accept its presence. So we now | attempt to go past all defenses for a little while each day. No more |
| W1:185.10 | you wanted, where to look for it, and where to turn for help in the | attempt. Help has been given you. And would you not avail yourself of |
| W1:193.14 | We will | attempt today to overcome a thousand seeming obstacles to peace in |
| W1:196.1 | this is firmly understood and kept in full awareness, you will not | attempt to harm yourself nor make your body slave to vengeance. You |
| W1:200.2 | hurt, of making peace of chaos, joy of pain, and Heaven out of hell. | Attempt no more to win through losing, nor to die to live. You cannot |
| W1:200.9 | again today. We go to Heaven, and the path is straight. Only if we | attempt to wander can there be delay and needless wasted time on |
| W1:R6.6 | We will | attempt to get beyond all words and special forms of practicing for |
| W1:R6.6 | all words and special forms of practicing for this review. For we | attempt this time to reach a quickened pace along a shorter path to |
| W2:I.2 | Now we | attempt to let the exercise be merely a beginning. For we wait in |
| W2:WIW.5 | satisfied until forgiveness has been made complete. And let us not | attempt to change our function. We must save the world. For we who |
| W2:261.1 | cannot be attacked. Let me today seek not security in danger, nor | attempt to find my peace in murderous attack. I live in God. In Him I |
| W2:268.1 | not be Your critic, Lord, today, and judge against You. Let me not | attempt to interfere with Your creation and distort it into sickly |
| W2:327.2 | will never fail in my experience if I but test them out. Let me | attempt therefore to try them and to judge them not. Your word is one |

| Tx:19.92 | the darkest veil, upheld by the belief in death and protected by its | attraction. The dedication to death and to its sovereignty is but the |
| Tx:19.93 | you. For if this is gone, what can you fear but life? It is the | attraction of death that makes life seem to be ugly, cruel, and |
| Tx:19.94 | love the body. And the appeal of death is lost forever as love's | attraction stirs and calls to you. From beyond each of the obstacles |
| Tx:19.94 | Itself has called, and each has been surmounted by the power of the | attraction of what lies beyond. Your wanting fear seemed to be |
| Tx:20.53 | powerful and so bitterly misunderstood and so invested in a false | attraction, your preference to the holy instant which offers you |
| Tx:21.70 | And only those who first believe that they are little could see | attraction there. Treachery to the Son of God is the defense of those |
| Tx:22.8 | indeed! Let not your fear of sin protect it from correction, for the | attraction of guilt is only fear. Here is the one emotion that you |
| Tx:23.4 | not the little interferers pull you to littleness. There can be no | attraction of guilt in innocence. Think what a happy world you walk |
| Tx:23.4 | for a little sigh of seeming sin nor for a tiny stirring of guilt's | attraction. Would you, for all these meaningless distractions, lay |
| Tx:24.34 | kill, and you are drawn to it to kill it first. And such is guilt's | attraction. Here is death enthroned as savior; crucifixion is now |

attributable (1) | ||
| Tx:12.4 | Much of the ego's strange behavior is directly | attributable to its definition of guilt. To the ego, the guiltless |
attribute (25) | ||
| Tx:1.90 | essentially motivated by needs, but behavior itself is not a divine | attribute. The body is the mechanism for behavior. The belief that he |
| Tx:2.5 | To “project,” as defined above, is a fundamental | attribute of God which He gave to His Son. In the creation, God |
| Tx:2.17 | others or from yourself to others or from others to you. Peace is an | attribute in you. You cannot find it outside. All mental illness is |
| Tx:2.106 | only because he does not understand it. Judgment is not an essential | attribute of God. Man brought judgment into being only because of the |
| Tx:3.26 | emptiness never find any lasting solace. Innocence is not a partial | attribute. It is not a real defense until it is total. When it is |
| Tx:3.30 | and certainty is strength. Perception is merely temporary. It is an | attribute of the space-time belief and is therefore subject to fear |
| Tx:4.68 | be restored. I raised the dead by knowing that life is an eternal | attribute of everything that the living God created. Why do you |
| Tx:4.79 | to accept as reasonable a compromise which is clearly senseless—to | attribute it to the mental illness of the patient rather than his own |
| Tx:7.54 | however, for you to see something in part of it that you will not | attribute to all of it. That is why attack is never discrete and why |
| Tx:9.94 | but you have judged them by the message you give to them. Do not | attribute your denial of joy to them, or you cannot see the spark in |
| Tx:14.12 | circle is everyone whom God created as His Son. Joy is its unifying | attribute, with no one left outside to suffer guilt alone. The power |

| W1:21.6 | as possible. You may, for example, focus your anger on a particular | attribute of a particular person, believing that the anger is limited |
| W1:35.11 | As often as possible during the day, pick up a specific | attribute or attributes you are ascribing to yourself at the time and |
| W1:43.1 | Perception is not an | attribute of God. His is the realm of knowledge. Yet He has created |
| W1:67.4 | Any | attribute which is in accord with God as He defines Himself is |
| W1:99.7 | regardless of their form, their size, their depth, or any | attribute they seem to have: |
| W1:103.1 | Happiness is an | attribute of love. It cannot be apart from it, nor can it be |
| W1:127.9 | a different present, where a future shines unlike the past in every | attribute. |
| W1:137.8 | will not prevail against the truth. Healing is shared. And by this | attribute, it proves that laws unlike the ones which hold that |
| W1:156.3 | Yet where He is there must be holiness as well as life. No | attribute of His remains unshared by everything that lives. What |
| W1:185.12 | be limited to you alone? No gift of God can be unshared. It is this | attribute that sets the gifts of God apart from every dream that ever |
attributed (1) | ||
| Tx:17.77 | than before. This is not so. Before, the strain was there but you | attributed it to something else, believing that the “something else” |
attributes (40) | ||
| Tx:4.29 | and very commendable effort to become both harmless and helpful, two | attributes which must go together. Your attitudes, even toward this, |
| Tx:5.65 | mitigate the punishment of God. Yet even in this it is arrogant. It | attributes to God a punishing intent, and then takes over this intent |
| Tx:5.84 | extremely ingenious, and a mind must endow its thoughts with its own | attributes. This is its inherent strength, although it may misuse its |
| Tx:14.1 | but listen and learn how impossible this is! Do not endow Him with | attributes you understand. You made Him not, and anything you |
| Tx:15.104 | of Heaven and hell in him by casting Heaven out and giving it the | attributes of hell without experiencing himself as incomplete and |
| Tx:16.10 | to understand than is the whole. If miracles are at all, their | attributes would have to be miraculous, being part of them. |

| Tx:16.52 | entail nor of the sadness and the loneliness. For these are only | attributes of the whole religion of the separation and of the total |
| Tx:17.25 | and the ego. Thought systems are but true or false, and all their | attributes come simply from what they are. Only the Thoughts of God |
| Tx:20.61 | nothing, which it is, the body cannot meaningfully be invested with | attributes of Christ or of the ego. Either must be an error, for both |
| Tx:20.61 | or of the ego. Either must be an error, for both would place the | attributes where they cannot be. And both must be undone for purposes |
| Tx:24.35 | And minds can change as they desire. What they are and all their | attributes, they cannot change. But what they hold as purpose can be |
| Tx:25.50 | it change. Yet is it possible what God created not should share the | attributes of His creation when it opposes it in every way? |
| Tx:25.51 | changed? What is immutable besides His Will? And what can share Its | attributes except Itself? What wish can rise against His Will and be |
| Tx:28.6 | phase of what does nothing. It works hand in hand with all the other | attributes with which you seek to keep concealed the truth about |
| Tx:30.43 | suffer change. Thoughts are not born and cannot die. They share the | attributes of their creator, nor have they a separate life apart from |
| W1:12.1 | or a sad world, or a violent world, or an insane world. All these | attributes are given it by you. The world is meaningless in itself. |
| W1:13.3 | If you are fearful, it is certain that you will endow the world with | attributes which it does not possess and crowd it with images that do |
| W1:35.4 | terms in which you see yourself. Include all of the ego-based | attributes which you ascribe to yourself, positive or negative, |
| W1:35.11 | As often as possible during the day, pick up a specific attribute or | attributes you are ascribing to yourself at the time and apply the |
| W1:40.3 | time and no effort. Repeat today's idea, and then add several of the | attributes which you associate with being a Son of God, applying them |
| W1:72.1 | deliberate attempt to destroy it. In the attack, God is assigned the | attributes which are actually associated with the ego, while the ego |
| W1:72.1 | associated with the ego, while the ego appears to take on the | attributes of God. |
| W1:91.10 | devote several minutes to allowing your mistaken thoughts about your | attributes to be corrected, and their opposites to take their place. |
| W1:94.6 | to lay all idols and self-images aside, go past the long list of | attributes, both “good” and “bad,” you have ascribed to yourself and |
| W1:140.7 | change but this. For how can one illusion differ from another but in | attributes that have no substance, no reality, no core, and nothing |
| W1:167.6 | no source. For mind creates all things that are and cannot give them | attributes it lacks nor change its own eternal, mindful state. It |

| W1:170.11 | belief in gods of vengeance come from? Love has not confused its | attributes with those of fear. Yet must the worshipers of fear |
| W1:170.13 | at peace forever. You have chosen Him in place of idols, and your | attributes, given by your Creator, are restored to you at last. The |
| W1:184.1 | By this you carve it out of unity. By this you designate its special | attributes and set it off from other things by emphasizing space |
| W1:186.9 | such instability and call it Son? He Who is changeless shares His | attributes with His creation. All the images His Son appears to make |
| W2:259.1 | be the source of fear, obscuring God's creation, giving love the | attributes of fear and of attack? |
| W2:320.1 | There are no limits on his strength, his peace, his joy, or any | attributes his Father gave in his creation. What he wills with his |
| W2:326.1 | have remained. Where You established me, I still abide, and all Your | attributes abide in me because it is Your will to have a Son so like |
| M:4.18 | that must be learned and learned very carefully. Like all the other | attributes of God's teachers, this one rests ultimately on trust, for |
| M:4.22 | is its condition. Faithfulness, then, combines in itself the other | attributes of God's teachers. It implies acceptance of the word of |
| M:4.23 | The centrality of open-mindedness, perhaps the last of the | attributes the teacher of God acquires, is easily understood when its |
| M:4.25 | You may have noticed that the list of | attributes of God's teachers does not include those things which are |

automatically (15) | ||
| Tx:1.57 | This is the same as saying that by perceiving light, darkness | automatically disappears. |
| Tx:2.19 | light, and since error and darkness are the same, it corrects error | automatically. True denial is a powerful protective device. You can |
| Tx:2.35 | treasure. You do not have to tell him to do so because he will do it | automatically. The real questions still remain. What do you treasure, |

| Tx:10.43 | expended on nothing. The ego's goal is quite explicitly ego | autonomy. From the beginning, then, its purpose is to be separate, |
| Tx:10.45 | Yours is the independence of creation, not of | autonomy. Your whole creative function lies in your complete |

| Tx:10.50 | If the ego's goal of | autonomy could be accomplished, God's purpose could be defeated, and |
| Tx:10.51 | God is as dependent on you as you are on Him because His | autonomy encompasses yours and is therefore incomplete without it. |
| Tx:10.51 | and is therefore incomplete without it. You can only establish your | autonomy by identifying with Him and fulfilling your function as it |

| Tx:15.76 | loneliness is but the working of the ego's plan to establish its own | autonomy. As long as you believe that to be with a body is |
| W2:328.1 | until we listen to the Voice of God. It seems that we will gain | autonomy but by our striving to be separate and that our independence |
| W2:WIE.2 | thinks it has become a victor over God Himself, and in its terrible | autonomy, it “sees” the Will of God has been destroyed. It dreams of |

| Tx:3.61 | if you judge the reality of others at all, you will be unable to | avoid judging your own. The choice to judge rather than to know was |

| Tx:7.100 | His Kingdom and yours. The Holy Spirit will direct you only so as to | avoid pain. The undoing of pain must obviously avoid pain. Surely no |
| Tx:7.100 | you only so as to avoid pain. The undoing of pain must obviously | avoid pain. Surely no one would object to this goal if he recognized |
| Tx:7.103 | Spirit always sides with you and with your strength. As long as you | avoid His guidance in any way, you want to be weak. Yet weakness is |

| Tx:13.21 | For all relationships which guilt has touched are used but to | avoid the person and the guilt. What strange relationships you have |
| Tx:13.40 | are necessary teaching aids, for by them you learn what to | avoid and what to seek. When you have learned this, you will find the |
| Tx:15.70 | bitter resentment. For it would much prefer to attack directly and | avoid delaying what it really wants. Yet the ego acknowledges |
| Tx:15.100 | but these. You have tried many compromises in the attempt to | avoid recognizing the one decision which must be made. And yet it is |
| Tx:16.24 | have not let what you are teach you. You have been very careful to | avoid the obvious and not to see the real cause and effect |
| Tx:22.21 | of yourself. Not both, but one. There is no point in trying to | avoid this one decision. It must be made. Faith and belief can fall |
| Tx:25.68 | They must believe He shares their own confusion and cannot | avoid the vengeance that their own belief in justice must entail. And |
| Tx:27.77 | Its comfort is its guiding rule. It tries to look for pleasure and | avoid the things that would be hurtful. Above all, it tries to teach |
| Tx:30.73 | of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who sees himself as guilty can | avoid the fear of God. But he is saved from this dilemma if he can |
| W1:2.1 | Merely glance easily and fairly quickly around you, trying to | avoid selection by size, brightness, color, material, or relative |
| W1:4.5 | for more than a minute or so. You are too inexperienced as yet to | avoid a tendency to become pointlessly preoccupied. Further, since |

| Tx:30.48 | can have no end. You have not two realities, but one. Nor can you be | aware of more than one. An idol or the Thought God holds of you is |
| Tx:30.49 | behind them is so lovely and so still in loving gentleness, were you | aware of it you would forget defensiveness entirely and rush to its |
| Tx:30.72 | the world can ever give. It pardons “sinners” sometimes but remains | aware that they have sinned. And so they do not merit the forgiveness |
| W1:4.1 | for about a minute. Then apply the idea to them. If you are already | aware of unhappy thoughts, use them as subjects for the idea. Do not, |

| W1:16.7 | As usual, use today's idea whenever you are | aware of a particular thought which arouses uneasiness. The following |
| W1:21.2 | emotion you experience does not matter. You will become increasingly | aware that a slight twinge of annoyance is nothing but a veil drawn |
| W1:33.5 | Remember to apply today's idea the instant you are | aware of distress. It may be necessary to take a minute or so to sit |
| W1:43.11 | If you should find your mind wandering, if you begin to be | aware of thoughts which are clearly out of accord with today's idea, |
| W1:44.9 | to repeat today's idea, keeping your eyes closed unless you are | aware of fear. In that case, you will probably find it more |

| W1:47.1 | in you that can be counted on? What would give you the ability to be | aware of all the facets of any problem and to resolve it in such a |
| W1:49.1 | truth abides is in constant communication with God, whether you are | aware of it or not. It is the other part of your mind that functions |
| W1:51.5 | [4] These thoughts do not mean anything. The thoughts of which I am | aware do not mean anything because I am trying to think without God. |
| W1:51.5 | My real thoughts are the thoughts I think with God. I am not | aware of them because I have made my thoughts to take their place. I |
| W1:52.6 | no private thoughts. Yet it is only private thoughts of which I am | aware. What can these thoughts mean? They do not exist, and so they |
| W1:53.2 | are showing me a meaningless world. Since the thoughts of which I am | aware do not mean anything, the world which pictures them can have no |

| W1:95.3 | We will attempt today to be | aware of only what can hear and see and what makes perfect sense. We |
| W1:95.4 | and of your need for mind training. It is necessary that you be | aware of this, for it is indeed a hindrance to your advance. |
| W1:104.7 | to find what has been given us by Him. We come in confidence today, | aware that what belongs to us in truth is what He gives. And we would |

| W1:169.3 | to waken. It is not shut tight against God's Voice. It has become | aware that there are things it does not know and thus is ready to |

| Tx:1.20 | 20. Miracles reawaken the | awareness that the spirit, not the body, is the altar of truth. This |
| Tx:1.31 | is to restore everything to you, or rather to restore it to your | awareness. You were given everything when you were created, just as |
| Tx:1.71 | being one, this state of mind goes out to anyone, even without the | awareness of the miracle worker himself. The impersonal nature of |
| Tx:1.72 | 45. The miracle is an expression of an inner | awareness of Christ and the acceptance of His Atonement. The mind is |
| Tx:1.74 | of the miracle should be Christ-controlled because of His complete | awareness of the whole plan. The impersonal nature of |
| Tx:1.96 | plane that is itself unreal. Since the miracle aims at restoring the | awareness of reality, it would hardly be useful if it were bound by |
| Tx:2.68 | can induce fear. Everything that results from accurate spiritual | awareness is merely channelized toward correction. Discomfort is |
| Tx:2.68 | is aroused only to bring the need for correction forcibly into | awareness. What the physical eye sees is not corrective nor can it be |
| Tx:2.89 | many other expressions clearly illustrate the prevailing lack of | awareness of thought-power. For example, you say, “Just an idle |
| Tx:2.91 | wishes do not kill in the physical sense, but they do kill spiritual | awareness. All destructive thinking is dangerous. Given a death wish, |
| Tx:3.10 | are not in the same order of reality. The latter involves a time | awareness, since to remember implies recalling the past in the |
| Tx:3.58 | part of it is to know all of it. Only perception involves partial | awareness. Knowledge transcends all the laws which govern perception |
| Tx:3.64 | dreams. Nothing that you have refused to accept can be brought into | awareness. It does not follow that it is dangerous, but it does |
| Tx:4.45 | what you have repressed can retain a very active life beyond your | awareness. |
| Tx:4.46 | not only the baser impulses but also the most lofty ones from | awareness because both are threatening to the ego and, being |
| Tx:4.72 | have a typical solution. It obliterates the question from the mind's | awareness. Once unconscious, the question can and does produce |
| Tx:5.53 | Teaching is therapy, because it means the sharing of ideas and the | awareness that to share them is to strengthen them. The union of the |

| Tx:6.34 | Him, you need only perceive it as it is to be returned. The full | awareness of the Atonement, then, is the recognition that the |
| Tx:6.54 | that the perfect were inadequate to bring themselves to the | awareness of their perfection and thus side with the belief that |
| Tx:6.81 | fact that you have accepted that is a demonstration of your growing | awareness that the Holy Spirit will lead you on. |

| Tx:6.93 | but your awareness of its wholeness does. It is only your | awareness which needs protection since your being cannot be assailed. |
| Tx:7.55 | what love is, it cannot perceive itself as loving. This loses the | awareness of being, induces feelings of unreality, and results in |
| Tx:7.70 | appreciated. That is why denying any part of it means you have lost | awareness of all of it. |
| Tx:7.95 | Who is in your mind, knows of them and can bring them into your | awareness whenever you will let Him. They are there as part of your |
| Tx:7.97 | of your own proper identification with your brothers and of your own | awareness that your identification is maintained by extension. The |
| Tx:8.27 | the Father by being aware of the Father's Will myself. This is the | awareness I came to give you, and your problem in accepting it is the |
| Tx:8.37 | and His. By joining your will with mine, you are signifying your | awareness that the Will of God is one. |
| Tx:8.68 | that this is possible. In its complete impossibility and your full | awareness of its complete impossibility lie your only hope for |
| Tx:8.81 | is the condition of its reality. It is also the condition of your | awareness of its reality. You do not have to seek reality. It will |
| Tx:8.92 | is that you are arbitrarily endowing something quite beyond your | awareness with something you do not want. It is evident, then, that |
| Tx:9.19 | Reality has not gone in the meanwhile. The Second Coming is the | awareness of reality, not its return. Behold, my children, reality is |
| Tx:9.19 | and me and God and is perfectly satisfying to all of us. Only this | awareness heals, because it is the awareness of truth. |
| Tx:9.19 | to all of us. Only this awareness heals, because it is the | awareness of truth. |
| Tx:9.21 | of healing. There is an advantage to bringing nightmares into | awareness, but only to teach that they are not real and that anything |
| Tx:9.53 | cannot co-exist, nor is it possible for them to alternate in your | awareness. Littleness and grandiosity can and must alternate in your |
| Tx:9.53 | awareness. Littleness and grandiosity can and must alternate in your | awareness since both are untrue and are therefore on the same level. |
| Tx:9.68 | you have forgotten. And you have replaced your knowledge by an | awareness of dreams because you are afraid of your dissociation, not |
| Tx:9.76 | them to Him. To be aware of this is to heal them, because it is the | awareness that no one is separate, and so no one is sick. To believe |
| Tx:9.82 | of nothingness, but you are really afraid of nothing. And in that | awareness you are healed. You will hear the god you listen to. You |
| Tx:10.49 | threat. Its dream of autonomy is shaken to its foundation by this | awareness. For though you may countenance a false idea of |
| Tx:10.60 | about what perception means because the same word is used both for | awareness and for the interpretation of awareness. Yet you cannot be |
| Tx:10.60 | same word is used both for awareness and for the interpretation of | awareness. Yet you cannot be aware without interpretation, and what |
| Tx:10.61 | with Him involves no strain at all. His perceptions are your natural | awareness, and it is only distortions which you introduce that tire |
| Tx:10.66 | and have not yet forgotten them. The forgetting of dreams and the | awareness of Christ comes with the awakening of others to share your |
| Tx:10.68 | God's Son is saved. Bring only this | awareness to the Sonship, and you will have a part in the redemption |
| Tx:10.72 | do not exist. And this is the condition of knowledge. Without this | awareness, you have not met its conditions, and until you do you will |
| Tx:11.6 | appeals for help, for both are capable of bringing love into your | awareness if you perceive them truly. And all your sense of strain |
| Tx:11.8 | name of Christ brings the remembrance of your Father closer to your | awareness. For the sake of your need, then, hear every call for help |
| Tx:11.9 | of others more and more consistently, you will gain an increasing | awareness that His criteria are equally applicable to you. For to |
| Tx:11.13 | it? The Holy Spirit's interpretation of fear does dispel it, for the | awareness of truth cannot be denied. Thus does the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:11.22 | the peace out of which He was created. Would you not exchange this | awareness for the awareness of your fear? When we have overcome fear |
| Tx:11.22 | which He was created. Would you not exchange this awareness for the | awareness of your fear? When we have overcome fear—not by hiding |
| Tx:11.42 | was not the price of our wholeness, but it was the price of your | awareness of your wholeness. For what you chose to “sell” had to be |
| Tx:11.53 | nothing in return. You cannot sell your Soul, but you can sell your | awareness of it. You cannot perceive your Soul, but you will not know |
| Tx:11.82 | matter how much distance you have tried to interpose between your | awareness and truth. God's Son can be seen because his vision is |
| Tx:12.3 | of your hidden cornerstones holds your belief in guilt from your | awareness. For in that dark and secret place is the realization that |
| Tx:12.10 | it to you and dispel it, without the need for you to raise it to | awareness yourself. Yet there is one more complication which you have |
| Tx:12.45 | To perceive truly is to be aware of all reality through the | awareness of your own. But for this no illusions can rise to meet |
| Tx:12.54 | it. Everyone you see in light brings your light closer to your own | awareness. Love always leads to love. The sick who ask for love are |
| Tx:12.56 | it is they who hold it out to you. In sleep you are alone, and your | awareness is narrowed to yourself. And that is why the nightmares |
| Tx:13.20 | is to hide the real source of your guilt and keep from your | awareness the full perception that it is insane. Displacement always |
| Tx:13.20 | little opposition to look upon all sorts of “sources” underneath | awareness, provided that they are not the deeper source to which they |
| Tx:14.6 | until he teaches it and learns it, he will suffer the pain of dim | awareness that his true function remains unfulfilled in him. The |
| Tx:14.58 | have the power, but you have interposed so much between it and your | awareness of it that you cannot use it. Everything you have taught |
| Tx:14.66 | given you will speak to you. He will take His rightful place in your | awareness the instant you abandon it and offer it to Him. |
| Tx:15.25 | your magnitude in this world. To hold your magnitude in perfect | awareness in a world of littleness is a task the little cannot |
| Tx:15.27 | Every decision you make is for Heaven or for hell and will bring you | awareness of what you decided for. The Holy Spirit can hold your |
| Tx:15.29 | decided for holiness for you. It is our task together to restore the | awareness of magnitude to the host whom God appointed for Himself. It |
| Tx:15.31 | that binds the host of God to guilt and weakness with the glad | awareness of the glory that is in him. My birth in you is your |
| Tx:15.35 | readiness for your acceptance. Yet you cannot bring it into glad | awareness while you do not want it, for it holds the whole release |
| Tx:15.44 | Let the Holy Spirit's purity shine them away and bring all your | awareness to the readiness for purity He offers you. Thus will He |
| Tx:15.62 | been drawn across reality is lifted. Nothing has changed. Yet the | awareness of changelessness comes swiftly as the veil of time is |
| Tx:15.64 | your Source and that of all your brothers to replace it in your | awareness. God and the power of God will take their rightful place in |
| Tx:15.73 | The fury of those joined at the ego's altar far exceeds your | awareness of it. For what the ego really wants, you do not realize. |
| Tx:15.78 | to have you be complete. For your completion makes you His in your | awareness. And here it is that you experience yourself as you were |
| Tx:15.81 | of God's Son is the loneliness of his Father. Refuse not the | awareness of your completion and seek not to restore it to |
| Tx:15.84 | He understands it because you have made it. In Him alone lies the | awareness of what God cannot know and what you do not understand. It |
| Tx:15.87 | God. In the holy instant, where the Great Rays replace the body in | awareness, the recognition of relationships without limits is given |
| Tx:15.104 | is the condition of sacrifice, as peace is the condition for the | awareness of your relationship with God. Through guilt you exclude |
| Tx:16.13 | minds join as one and share one idea equally, the first link in the | awareness of the Sonship as one has been made. When you have made |
| Tx:16.17 | of holiness and the weakness of attack have both been brought into | awareness. And this has been accomplished in minds firmly convinced |
| Tx:16.74 | And even when the hatred and the savagery break briefly through into | awareness, the illusion of love is not profoundly shaken. Yet the one |
| Tx:16.74 | shaken. Yet the one thing which the ego never allows to reach | awareness is that the special relationship is the acting out of |
| Tx:16.76 | attempt to bring illusions into the holy instant to hinder your full | awareness of the complete difference in all respects between your |
| Tx:17.54 | time to close over it. It must be kept shining and gracious in your | awareness of time but not concealed within it. The instant remains. |
| Tx:18.37 | only that I do not interfere with His plan to restore to me my own | awareness of my readiness, which is eternal. I need add nothing to |
| Tx:18.49 | from Him. Heaven is not a place nor a condition. It is merely an | awareness of perfect Oneness and the knowledge that there is nothing |
| Tx:18.50 | and get something else, something outside yourself, has cost you the | awareness of Heaven and the loss of your Identity. And you have done |
| Tx:18.59 | really happens is that you have given up the illusion of a limited | awareness and lost your fear of union. The love that instantly |
| Tx:18.61 | the sudden experience of peace and joy, and, above all, the lack of | awareness of the body and of the questioning whether or not all this |
| Tx:18.64 | but never quite the same. And every instant that you spend without | awareness of it gives you a different view of it when you return. |
| Tx:18.70 | center, from which the body is absent, that will keep it so in your | awareness of it. |
| Tx:18.71 | It is only the | awareness of the body that makes love seem limited. For the body is a |
| Tx:18.72 | The body cannot know. And while you limit your | awareness to its tiny senses, you will not see the grandeur which |
| Tx:18.86 | and the messages it transmits to you who made it to limit your | awareness are little and limited and so fragmented they are |
| Tx:19.37 | lives, surrounding both of you with glowing happiness and the calm | awareness of complete protection. And you will carry its message of |
| Tx:19.68 | limits which would hold its extension back and so would limit your | awareness of it. For what He gives must be extended if you would have |
| Tx:19.82 | an Answer which left Him not and therefore brings the Creator to the | awareness of every mind which heard His Answer and accepted it. |
| Tx:20.14 | way to Heaven and to the peace of Easter, in which we join in glad | awareness that the Son of God is risen from the past and has awakened |
| Tx:20.15 | where the strength and freedom wait, to offer and receive the bright | awareness that leads you home. The lamp is lit in both of you for one |
| Tx:20.57 | from themselves and keep remembrance of His love apart from their | awareness? |
| Tx:20.76 | and screaming sounds the ego's purpose brought to your horrified | awareness. They step away from sin, reminding you that it is not |
| Tx:21.37 | of Heaven. The instant for its recognition is at hand. Join your | awareness to what has been already joined. The faith you give each |
| Tx:21.49 | and never to reality. Yet it can show you the conditions in which | awareness of reality is possible or those where it could never be. |
| Tx:21.50 | Reality needs no cooperation from you to be itself. But your | awareness of it needs your help because it is your choice. Listen to |
| Tx:21.52 | reason. Reason lies in the other Self you have cut off from your | awareness. And nothing you have allowed to stay in it is capable of |
| Tx:21.90 | what He has given you? Here is the great appeal to reason; the | awareness of what is always there to see, the happiness that could be |
| Tx:21.90 | nothing stand between the holiness of your relationship and your | awareness of its holiness. |
| Tx:22.14 | the first direct perception that you have made. You made it through | awareness older than perception and yet reborn in just an instant. |
| Tx:22.29 | are contradictory. Nor is it possible for them to co-exist in your | awareness. And reason's goal is to make plain and therefore obvious. |
| Tx:22.36 | be kept from you by what the body's eyes can see. Let your | awareness of your brother not be blocked by your perception of his |
| Tx:22.37 | above all else. Unholy values will produce confusion, and in | awareness. In an unholy relationship, each one is valued because he |
| Tx:22.40 | the drapery that separates you now. Yet it is almost over in your | awareness, and peace has reached you even here before the veil. Think |
| Tx:22.49 | If you but recognized how little stands between you and your | awareness of your union! Be not deceived by the illusions it presents |
| Tx:23.3 | they share their innocence. Nothing they see is harmful, for their | awareness of the truth releases everything from the illusion of |
| Tx:23.5 | light the way to his, and so is yours protected and kept in your | awareness. For who can know his glory and perceive the little and the |
| Tx:23.40 | or the way to hell? Quite easily. How do you feel? Is peace in your | awareness? Are you certain which way you go? And are you sure the |
| Tx:23.41 | smiles are gone and where the purpose rises to meet his horrified | awareness and pursue him still. For no one thinks of murder and |
| Tx:23.43 | complete for everyone. Let the idea of compromise but enter, and the | awareness of salvation's purpose is lost because it is not |
| Tx:23.54 | Sorrow of any kind is inconceivable. Only the light they love is in | awareness, and only love shines upon them forever. It is their past, |
| Tx:23.55 | Those with the strength of God in their | awareness could never think of battle. What could they gain but loss |
| Tx:24.25 | be reached save through the sight of all your misery and the | awareness that your plan has failed and will forever fail to bring |
| Tx:25.87 | offered to everyone alike. It is received and given equally. It is | awareness that giving and receiving are the same. Because it does not |
| Tx:26.47 | are seen as consequence and cause in a relationship kept hidden from | awareness that it may be carefully preserved from reason's light. |
| Tx:26.86 | by any veil which stands between Their shining innocence and your | awareness it is your own and equally belongs to every living thing |
| Tx:27.30 | and empty space can not be interference. What can interfere with the | awareness of reality is the belief that there is something there. |
| Tx:27.54 | would silence what the Holy Spirit says and keep His words from your | awareness. Pain compels attention, drawing it away from Him and |
| Tx:29.41 | is now restored the function God established for His Son in full | awareness. Time can set no end to its fulfillment nor its |
| Tx:30.24 | when you are wrong. Thus is the readiness for asking brought to your | awareness, for you cannot be in conflict when you ask for what you |
| Tx:30.44 | An unremembered thought is born again to you when it returns to your | awareness. Yet it did not die when you forgot it. It was always |
| Tx:30.62 | Thus is the real world's purpose gently brought into | awareness, to replace the goal of sin and guilt. And all that stood |
| Tx:30.69 | their will is one. And thus the Will of God must reach to their | awareness. Nor can they forget for long that it is but their own. |
| Tx:30.92 | Miracles but show what you have interposed between reality and your | awareness is unreal and does not interfere at all. The cost of the |
| W1:16.5 | repeat the idea, and then as each one crosses your mind, hold it in | awareness while you tell yourself: |
| W1:31.3 | world, merely let whatever thoughts cross your mind come into your | awareness, each to be considered for a moment and then replaced by |
| W1:32.3 | you wish as you watch the images your imagination presents to your | awareness. |
| W1:34.5 | throughout the day. If a specific form of temptation arises in your | awareness, the exercise should take this form: |
| W1:37.2 | have any idea why he is losing. Yet is his wholeness restored to his | awareness through your vision. Your holiness blesses him by asking |
| W1:37.9 | your holiness immediately that you may learn to keep it in your own | awareness. |
| W1:43.2 | it must become the means for the restoration of his holiness to his | awareness. Perception has no meaning. Yet does the Holy Spirit give |
| W1:43.17 | If no particular subject presents itself to your | awareness, merely repeat the idea in its original form. |
| W1:44.8 | of what you are doing, its inestimable value to you, and an | awareness that you are attempting something very holy. Salvation is |
| W1:46.2 | thus undoes what fear has produced, returning the mind to the | awareness of God. For this reason, forgiveness can truly be called |
| W1:47.7 | which you need and to which you are entitled. You must also gain an | awareness that your confidence in your real strength is fully |
| W1:48.3 | fear is a sure sign that you are trusting in your own strength. The | awareness that there is nothing to fear shows that somewhere in your |
| W1:55.4 | see a world of attack. As forgiveness allows love to return to my | awareness, I will see a world of peace and safety and joy. It is this |
| W1:56.4 | While I see the world as I see it now, truth cannot enter my | awareness. I would let the door behind this world be opened for me |
| W1:62.3 | will restore the invulnerability and power God gave His Son to your | awareness. |
| W1:62.8 | for your heart will recognize these words, and in your mind is the | awareness that they are true. Should your attention wander, repeat |
| W1:63.3 | by acknowledging it and close the day with the thought of it in our | awareness. And throughout the day, we will repeat this as often as we |
| W1:67.6 | going past that and through the interval of thoughtlessness to the | awareness of a blazing light in which you recognize yourself as Love |
| W1:67.6 | created you. Be confident that you will do much today to bring that | awareness nearer, whether you feel you have succeeded or not. |
| W1:68.2 | do not yet fully realize just what holding grievances does to your | awareness. It seems to split you off from your Source and make you |
| W1:69.9 | that your grievances are hiding the light of the world from your | awareness. Remind yourself also that you are not searching for it |
| W1:72.9 | yourself in a body and the truth outside you, locked away from your | awareness by the body's limitations. Now we are going to try to see |
| W1:73.2 | the ego employs to traffic in grievances and stand between your | awareness and your brothers' reality. Beholding them, you do not know |
| W1:73.11 | from hell and from all idle wishes. His will is now restored to his | awareness. He is willing this very day to look upon the light in him |
| W1:75.15 | day to the serenity in which God would have you be. Keep it in your | awareness of yourself and see it everywhere today, as we celebrate |
| W1:85.7 | away from me for my salvation. I will not let this interfere with my | awareness of the Source of my salvation. This has no power to remove |
| W1:86.5 | I am therefore excluding my only hope of salvation from my | awareness. I would no longer defeat my own best interests in this |
| W1:91.1 | absence is not the result of your failure to see. It is only your | awareness of miracles that is affected. You will see them in the |
| W1:91.4 | not doubt. The miracles your sense of weakness hides will leap into | awareness as you feel the strength in you. |
| W1:91.8 | truth of what you are calls on the strength in you to bring to your | awareness what the mistake concealed. |
| W1:95.16 | You are God's Son, One Self with one Creator and one goal—to bring | awareness of this oneness to all minds, that true creation may extend |
| W1:96.16 | experiences it will save for you, and it will yet be yours in full | awareness. Every time you spend five minutes of the hour seeking Him |
| W1:97.3 | to bring reality still closer to your mind. Each time you practice, | awareness is brought a little nearer at least; sometimes a thousand |
| W1:107.10 | Him Who goes with you upon this undertaking that He be in your | awareness as you go with Him. You are not made of flesh and blood and |
| W1:110.5 | birthplace of all miracles, the great restorer of the truth to the | awareness of the world. Practice today's idea with gratitude. This is |
| W1:122.8 | tranquility as ancient truths, forever newly born, arise in your | awareness. What you will remember then can never be described. Yet |
| W1:122.13 | of shifting change and bleak appearances. Retain your gifts in clear | awareness as you see the changeless in the heart of change, the light |
| W1:122.14 | gifts with this reminder, which has power to hold your gifts in your | awareness through the day: |
| W1:124.4 | No meaningless anxieties can come between our faith and our | awareness of His Presence. We are one with Him today in recognition |
| W1:124.7 | We join in this | awareness as we say that we are one with God. For in these words we |
| W1:124.8 | Peace be to you today. Secure your peace by practicing | awareness you are one with your Creator, as He is with you. Sometime |
| W1:126.6 | yourself. It has no power to restore your unity with him to your | awareness. It is not what God intended it to be for you. |
| W1:128.3 | from you, and add another bar across the door that leads to true | awareness of your Self. |
| W1:136.3 | Defenses are not unintentional nor are they made without | awareness. They are secret magic wands you wave when truth appears to |
| W1:139.13 | chains that seem to keep the knowledge of yourself apart from your | awareness, as you say: |
| W1:R4.4 | his Father shares. Lack of forgiveness blocks this thought from his | awareness. Yet it is forever true. |
| W1:151.3 | think your fingers touch reality and close upon the truth. This is | awareness which you understand and think more real than what is |
| W1:152.5 | feeling, alterations in conditions of the body and the mind, in all | awareness, and in all response. This is the all-inclusiveness which |
| W1:152.8 | universe, and all you think you made will disappear. What rises to | awareness then will be all that there ever was, eternally as it is |
| W1:152.14 | reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left will come again to our | awareness, grateful to restore His home to God as it was meant to be. |
| W1:157.1 | for it ushers in a new experience, a different kind of feeling and | awareness. You have spent long days and nights in celebrating death. |
| W1:181.1 | his errors. Rather, they are magnified, becoming blocks to your | awareness of the Self that lies beyond your own mistakes and past his |
| W1:184.14 | And though we use a different name for each | awareness of an aspect of God's Son, we understand that they have but |
| W1:185.1 | in any place or time. Heaven would be completely given back to full | awareness, memory of God entirely restored, the resurrection of all |
| W1:193.10 | over you. You see them rightly when you hold these words in full | awareness, and do not forget these words apply to everything you see |
| W1:195.5 | not compare ourselves with them, for thus we split them off in our | awareness from the unity we share with them, as they must share with |
| W1:196.1 | When this is firmly understood and kept in full | awareness, you will not attempt to harm yourself nor make your body |
| W2:225.1 | all Your love to me. I must return it, for I want it mine in full | awareness, blazing in my mind, and keeping it within its kindly |
| W2:246.1 | Self. Let me not fail to recognize myself and still believe that my | awareness can contain my Father, or my mind conceive of all the love |
| W2:323.1 | anxiety and doubt and freely let Your Love come streaming in to his | awareness, healing him of pain and giving him Your own eternal joy. |
| W2:323.2 | and in joy. We are deceived no longer. Love has now returned to our | awareness. And we are at peace again, for fear has gone and only love |
| W2:347.1 | it is healed. He gives the miracles my dreams would hide from my | awareness. Let Him judge today. I do not know my will, but He is sure |
| W2:358.1 | forget Your Love and care, keeping Your promise to Your Son in my | awareness always. Let me not forget myself is nothing, but my Self is |
| M:4.14 | —that harmfulness completely obliterates his function from his | awareness. It will make him confused, fearful, angry, and suspicious. |
| M:12.6 | they have learned that all choices are made consciously, with full | awareness of their consequences. The dream says otherwise, but who |
| M:12.6 | put his faith in dreams, once they are recognized for what they are? | Awareness of dreaming is the real function of God's teachers. They |
| M:13.8 | Decide against Him, and you choose nothing at the expense of the | awareness of everything. What would you teach? Remember only what you |
| M:16.10 | he never had. And for this “sacrifice” is Heaven restored to his | awareness. |
| M:19.4 | Salvation is God's justice. It restores to your | awareness the wholeness of the fragments you perceive as broken off |
| M:22.2 | problem areas from it. In some cases, there is a sudden and complete | awareness of the perfect applicability of the lesson of the Atonement |
| M:25.1 | each individual has many abilities of which he is unaware. As his | awareness increases, he may well develop abilities that seem quite |
| M:26.1 | directly, for there is no distance between Him and His Son. His | awareness is in everyone's memory, and His Word is written on |
| M:26.1 | memory, and His Word is written on everyone's heart. Yet this | awareness and this memory can arise across the threshold of the |
| M:26.3 | states must be illusory. If God were reached directly in sustained | awareness, the body would not be long maintained. Those who have laid |
| M:27.3 | of God. His love is blotted out in the idea, which holds it from | awareness like a shield held to obscure the sun. The grimness of the |
| M:28.1 | for oneself. It is the end of dreams of misery and the glad | awareness of the Holy Spirit's final dream. It is the recognition of |
awarenesses (1) | ||
| W1:184.3 | of bodies kept apart and holding bits of mind as separate | awarenesses? You gave these names to them, establishing perception as |

| Tx:1.17 | transcendence of the body. They are sudden shifts into invisibility, | away from a sense of lower-order reality. That is why they heal. |
| Tx:1.34 | My word, which is the resurrection and the light, shall not pass | away, because light is eternal. You are the work of God, and His work |
| Tx:2.67 | begins with the awakening of the Spiritual eye and the turning | away from the belief in physical sight. The reason this so often |
| Tx:3.22 | I have been correctly referred to as “the Lamb of God who taketh | away the sins of the world.” Those who represent the lamb as |
| Tx:3.24 | of the truly loved to others who are like them. The lamb taketh | away the sins of the world only in the sense that the state of |
| Tx:3.80 | that the branch that bears no fruit will be cut off and will wither | away. Be glad! The light will shine from the true Foundation of Life, |
| Tx:4.26 | made the ego. You do have knowledge at times, but when you throw it | away, it is as if you never had it. This willfulness is so apparent |
| Tx:4.28 | though this is anything but true. Babies scream in rage if you take | away a knife or a scissors, even though they may well harm themselves |
| Tx:4.46 | them as the same, the ego attempts to save itself from being swept | away, as it would surely be in the presence of knowledge. |
| Tx:4.63 | is easily made if you actively refuse to let your minds slip | away. The problem is not one of concentration; it is the belief that |
| Tx:4.64 | Your mind and mine can unite in shining your ego | away and releasing the strength of God into everything you think and |
| Tx:4.64 | carefully for any beliefs that hinder its accomplishment, and step | away from them. Judge how well you have done this by your own |
| Tx:4.85 | you react egotistically towards each other, you are throwing | away the graciousness of your indebtedness and the holy perception it |
| Tx:4.92 | you teach someone the value of something he has deliberately thrown | away? He must have thrown it away because he did not value it. You |
| Tx:4.92 | of something he has deliberately thrown away? He must have thrown it | away because he did not value it. You can only show him how miserable |
| Tx:5.6 | it. All of it is still yours, although all of it has been given | away. Further, if the person to whom you give it accepts it as his, |
| Tx:5.8 | Thoughts increase by being given | away. The more who believe in them, the stronger they become. |
| Tx:5.21 | idea of darkness. His is the glory before which dissociation falls | away and the Kingdom of Heaven breaks through into its own. Before |
| Tx:5.31 | the unlimited. Child of God, my message is for you to hear and give | away as you answer the Holy Spirit within you. |
| Tx:5.33 | of which it is a part. Therefore, it is strengthened by being given | away. It increases in you as you give it to your brothers. Since |
| Tx:5.40 | act, but a thought. Therefore, the idea of separation can be given | away, just as the idea of unity can. Either way, the idea will be |
| Tx:5.44 | is misdirected. The misdirection is quite apparent; it is directed | away from you. |
| Tx:5.53 | prevail against the Kingdom because it is united, and the ego fades | away and is undone in the presence of the attraction of the parts of |
| Tx:5.55 | part in the Atonement is not complete until you join it and give it | away. As you teach, so shall you learn. I will never leave you or |
| Tx:5.56 | When they have been sufficiently purified, He lets you give them | away. The will to share them is their purification. |
| Tx:5.62 | possible to attack God. You believe that a part of Him has been torn | away by you. The classic picture of fear of retaliation from without |
| Tx:6.44 | Only thus can you win back the knowledge that you threw | away. An idea which you share, you must have. It awakens in you |
| Tx:6.60 | Holy Spirit makes no distinction among dreams. He merely shines them | away. His light is always the call to awake, whatever you have been |
| Tx:6.64 | accomplish on behalf of the Kingdom to let this crucial concept slip | away. It is a real foundation stone of the thought system I teach and |
| Tx:6.94 | illusion, but you must learn to accept truth, because you threw it | away. You therefore saw yourself as if you were without it. By making |
| Tx:7.19 | is true that if you put three apples on the table and then take them | away, the three apples are not there. But it is not true that the |
| Tx:7.50 | not appreciate it; and it does not love it. It incorporates to take | away. It literally believes that every time it deprives someone of |
| Tx:7.85 | idea that you can get rid of something you do not want by giving it | away. Giving it is how you keep it. The belief that by giving it out |
| Tx:8.2 | desirable. If you did, you would hardly be willing to throw it | away so readily when the ego asks for your allegiance. The |
| Tx:8.27 | Light does not attack darkness, but it does shine it | away. If my light goes with you everywhere, you shine it away with |
| Tx:8.27 | shine it away. If my light goes with you everywhere, you shine it | away with me. The light becomes ours, and you cannot abide in |
| Tx:9.54 | Truth does not vacillate; it is always true. When grandeur slips | away from you, you have replaced it with something you have made. |
| Tx:9.67 | wholly, for if to desire wholly is to create, you will have willed | away the separation, returning your mind simultaneously to your |
| Tx:10.16 | step toward recognizing what you truly want. Every attack is a step | away from this, and every healing thought brings it closer. The Son |
| Tx:10.63 | of the resurrection demands nothing, for He does not will to take | away. He does not require obedience, for obedience implies |
| Tx:10.75 | let Him interpret it for you, He will restore what you have thrown | away. As long as you think you know its meaning, you will see no need |
| Tx:11.9 | with the fear, having recognized it, you would have taken a step | away from reality, not towards it. Yet we have repeatedly emphasized |
| Tx:11.22 | the Holy Spirit will judge and will judge truly. He cannot shine | away what you keep hidden, for you have not offered it to Him, and He |
| Tx:11.77 | The Father has hidden His Son safely within Himself and kept him far | away from your destructive thoughts, but you know neither the Father |
| Tx:11.95 | him. And so it has always been. Let the holiness of God's Son shine | away the cloud of guilt that darkens your mind, and by accepting his |
| Tx:11.96 | the ego's. And immortality is the opposite of time, for time passes | away, while immortality is constant. |
| Tx:12.14 | would crush you into nothingness. You are afraid it would sweep you | away from yourself and make you little. For you believe that |
| Tx:12.14 | destroy; and by loving Him, which you do, you would throw this world | away, which you would. Therefore, you have used the world to cover |
| Tx:12.37 | recoils from what he fears. And you react with fear to love and draw | away from it. Yet fear attracts you, and believing it is love, you |
| Tx:12.61 | turn in sadness from it, you cannot find in it the road that leads | away from it into another world. |
| Tx:12.62 | but do not want. The only effort you need make to give this world | away in glad exchange for what you did not make is willingness to |
| Tx:12.63 | cannot see it, for whenever judgment enters, reality has slipped | away. The out of mind is out of sight because what is denied is there |
| Tx:12.72 | you are tempted to undertake a foolish journey that would lead | away from light, remember what you really want and say, |
| Tx:12.75 | it of me in glad exchange for all the world has offered but to take | away. And we will spread it like a veil of light across the world's |
| Tx:13.34 | on it. Before the glorious radiance of the Kingdom, guilt melts | away and, transformed into kindness, will never more be what it was. |
| Tx:13.47 | their seeming clearness seems to be clearly seen. Let us now turn | away from them and follow the simple logic by which the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.48 | conditions must be acquired, for it is they that have been thrown | away. You can learn to bless and cannot give what you have not. If, |
| Tx:13.48 | must also have accepted it as yours, for how else could you give it | away? |
| Tx:13.62 | and behind it is nothing. The key is only the light which shines | away the shapes and forms and fears of nothing. Accept this key to |
| Tx:13.70 | and enter light with him. By giving power to nothing, he threw | away the joyous opportunity to learn that nothing has no power. And |
| Tx:13.82 | and learn of all the happy communication that you have thrown | away but could not lose. |
| Tx:14.1 | guilty is denial of the Father so complete that knowledge is swept | away from recognition in the very mind where God Himself has placed |
| Tx:14.2 | your making, but not without you. You who have thrown your selves | away and valued God so little, hear me speak for Him and for |
| Tx:14.8 | it. Protect his purity from every thought that would steal it | away and keep it from his sight. Bring innocence to light in answer |
| Tx:14.8 | of the Atonement. Never allow purity to remain hidden, but shine | away the heavy veils of guilt within which the Son of God has hidden |
| Tx:14.8 | can unite us in this world. So will the world of separation slip | away and full communication be restored between the Father and the |
| Tx:14.16 | and in ignorance that you perceive the frightening, and you shrink | away from it to further darkness. And yet it is only the hidden that |
| Tx:14.19 | destruction is not true. The light of guiltlessness shines guilt | away because, when they are brought together, the truth of one must |
| Tx:14.24 | truth is union. As darkness disappears in light, so ignorance fades | away when knowledge dawns. Perception is the medium by which |
| Tx:14.30 | asks of you but this—bring to Him every secret you have locked | away from Him. Open every door to Him and bid Him enter the darkness |
| Tx:14.30 | Open every door to Him and bid Him enter the darkness and lighten it | away. At your request He enters gladly. He brings the light to |
| Tx:14.35 | Let your minds wander not through darkened corridors, | away from light's center. You may choose to lead yourselves astray, |
| Tx:15.36 | go. The instant in which magnitude will dawn upon you is but as far | away as your desire for it. As long as you desire it not and cherish |
| Tx:15.44 | would keep unto yourself. Let the Holy Spirit's purity shine them | away and bring all your awareness to the readiness for purity He |
| Tx:15.80 | relationships at all. You but seek in them what you have thrown | away. And through them you will never learn the value of what you |
| Tx:15.90 | but because your power, being His, is as great as His, you can turn | away from love. What you invest in guilt, you withdraw from God. And |
| Tx:15.97 | As host to the ego, you believe that you can give all your guilt | away whatever you think and purchase peace. And the payment does not |
| Tx:15.99 | of not accepting this has been so great that you have given God | away rather than look at it. For if God would demand total sacrifice |
| Tx:15.99 | sacrifice of you, you thought it safer to project Him outward and | away from you and not be host to Him. To Him you ascribed the ego's |
| Tx:15.106 | preferred to keep that has no meaning, while all that you would keep | away holds all the meaning of the universe and holds the universe |
| Tx:16.11 | part of the whole. And this is but a way of avoiding or looking | away from the whole to what you think you might be better able to |
| Tx:16.15 | His understanding of the miracle be enough for you, and do not turn | away from all the witnesses that He has given you to His reality. |
| Tx:16.25 | answer to the separation added more to you than you tried to take | away. He protected both your creations and you together, keeping one |
| Tx:16.41 | is very near. You have almost recognized it. Turn with me firmly | away from all illusions now, and let nothing stand in the way of |
| Tx:16.41 | stand in the way of truth. We will take the last foolish journey | away from truth together, and then together we go straight to God in |
| Tx:16.49 | in which it thinks it can accomplish this, it gives itself | away and tries to “trade” itself for the self of another. This is not |
| Tx:16.49 | For how much value can he place upon a self that he would give | away to get a better one? |
| Tx:16.57 | system is a carefully contrived learning experience designed to lead | away from truth and into fantasy. Yet for every learning that would |
| Tx:17.3 | appreciation of the whole! What you reserve unto yourself, you take | away from Him Who would release you. Unless you give it back, it is |
| Tx:17.6 | yourself for just this same attempt. And you are holding both of you | away from truth and from salvation. As you forgive him, you restore |
| Tx:18.20 | in your special relationship. He does not destroy it nor snatch it | away from you. [But He does use it differently, as a help to make His |
| Tx:18.26 | of what you have made of it. You are advancing to love's meaning and | away from all illusions in which you have surrounded it. When you |
| Tx:18.26 | fearful. Yet what is that to us who travel surely and very swiftly | away from fear? |
| Tx:18.27 | And fear must disappear before you now. Be tempted not to snatch | away the gift of faith you offered to each other. You will succeed |
| Tx:18.31 | Great Rays extend back into darkness and forward unto God to shine | away the past and so make room for His eternal Presence, in which |
| Tx:18.38 | And that is all. Add more and you will merely take | away the little that is asked. Remember you made guilt and that your |
| Tx:18.60 | be with it. And so you rush to meet it, letting your limits melt | away, suspending all the “laws” your body obeys and gently setting |
| Tx:18.80 | stretch across the desert, leaving no lonely little kingdoms locked | away from love and leaving you inside. And you will recognize |
| Tx:18.83 | you. Blow on it lightly and with happy laughter, and it will fall | away. And walk into the garden love has prepared for both of you. |
| Tx:19.20 | Is this humility? Or is it, rather, an attempt to wrest creation | away from truth and keep it separate? |
| Tx:19.43 | Would you thrust salvation | away from the giver of salvation? For such have you become. Peace |
| Tx:19.43 | asked the Holy Spirit to share with you. The little wall will fall | away so quietly beneath the wings of peace! For peace will send its |
| Tx:19.43 | its messengers from you to all the world. And barriers will fall | away before their coming as easily as those which you would interpose |
| Tx:19.44 | against it. And all that seems to stand between you must fall | away because of the appeal you answered. For from you who answered, |
| Tx:19.48 | snow? See but how easily this little wisp is lifted up and carried | away, never to return, and part with it in gladness, not regret. For |
| Tx:19.51 | fear is merciless even to its friends. Its messengers steal guiltily | away in hungry search of guilt, for they are kept cold and starving |
| Tx:19.67 | to freedom and bar my way to you. Yet it is not possible to keep | away One Who is there already. And in Him it is possible that our |
| Tx:19.74 | The ego's messages are always sent | away from you in the belief that for your message of attack and guilt |
| Tx:19.78 | “sinners,” the ego's mournful chorus, plodding so heavily | away from life, dragging their chains and marching in the slow |
| Tx:19.78 | them with the gentle hands of forgiveness and watch the chains fall | away along with yours. See him throw aside the black robe he was |
| Tx:19.105 | he accepted as his own, and toss it lightly and with happy laughter | away from him. Press it not like thorns against his brow, nor nail |
| Tx:20.2 | in the other, uncertain which to give. Join now with me and throw | away the thorns, offering the lilies to replace them. This Easter, I |
| Tx:20.36 | need will be denied you. Not one seeming difficulty but will melt | away before you reach it. You need take thought for nothing, careless |
| Tx:20.48 | the offerings on which its idols thrive. The rest it merely throws | away, for all that it could offer is seen as valueless. Homeless, the |
| Tx:20.76 | the ego's purpose brought to your horrified awareness. They step | away from sin, reminding you that it is not reality which frightens |
| Tx:20.77 | water running happily beside them in dancing brooks that never waste | away, who need persuade you to accept the gift of vision? And after |
| Tx:21.18 | Withhold it, and you keep the world as now you see it. Give it | away, and everything you see goes with it. Never was so much given |
| Tx:21.22 | simply to recognize again the presence of what you thought you gave | away. |
| Tx:21.31 | faith in opposite directions. What faith you give to sin you take | away from holiness. And what you offer holiness has been removed from |
| Tx:21.32 | Through them the Holy Spirit leads you to the real world and | away from all illusions where your faith was laid. This is His |
| Tx:21.34 | sin by which you sought to find it. But as He uses them, they lead | away from sin because His purpose lies in the opposite direction. He |
| Tx:21.36 | this decision are also born of faith. For all who choose to look | away from sin are given vision and are led to holiness. |
| Tx:21.56 | But reason enters not at all in this. For the perception would fall | away at once if reason were applied. There is no reason in insanity, |
| Tx:21.63 | And if there is nothing in between, how can what enters part be kept | away from other parts? Reason would tell you this. But think what you |
| Tx:21.65 | kind as is the purpose for which it is the means, leads steadily | away from madness toward the goal of truth. And here you will lay |
| Tx:22.59 | the other lights up the world. Be not concerned with darkness; look | away from it and toward each other. And let the darkness be dispelled |
| Tx:23.16 | apart. Open the door of His most holy home and let forgiveness sweep | away all trace of the belief in sin that keeps God homeless and His |
| Tx:23.27 | your gain, and thus it fails to recognize that you can never take | away save from yourself. Yet all the other laws must lead to this. |
| Tx:23.39 | of truth's reversal, leading still deeper into terror and | away from truth. Think not one step is smaller than another nor that |
| Tx:24.20 | Just one step more and every vestige of the fear of God will melt | away in love. Your brother's specialness and yours are enemies and |
| Tx:24.24 | in madness and in loneliness your special kingdom, apart from God, | away from truth and from salvation. |
| Tx:24.25 | The key you threw | away God gave your brother, whose holy hands would offer it to you |
| Tx:24.27 | not. And yet this idol that seems to give you power has taken it | away. For you have given your brother's birthright to it, leaving him |
| Tx:25.1 | where they thought their bodies were. Then will their bodies melt | away that they may frame His holiness in them. |
| Tx:25.34 | world of light, the darkness they thought was there is pushed | away until it is but distant shadows, far away, not long to be |
| Tx:25.34 | was there is pushed away until it is but distant shadows, far | away, not long to be remembered as the sun shines them to |
| Tx:25.35 | thoughts that haunt you now will seem increasingly remote and far | away from you. And they go farther and farther off because the sun in |
| Tx:25.35 | farther off because the sun in you has risen that they may be pushed | away before the light. They linger for a while, a little while, in |
| Tx:25.35 | They linger for a while, a little while, in twisted forms too far | away for recognition and are gone forever. And in the sunlight you |
| Tx:25.35 | will the rest you found extend, so that your peace can never fall | away and leave you homeless. Those who offer peace to everyone have |
| Tx:25.44 | accustomed to the dim effects perceived at twilight. And they turn | away from sunlight and the clarity it brings to what they look upon. |
| Tx:25.76 | he thinks he is deprived. And so must he be envious and try to take | away from whom he judges. He is not impartial and cannot fairly see |
| Tx:26.2 | and what is out can never reach and join with what is locked | away within the wall. Each part must sacrifice the other part to keep |
| Tx:26.13 | is suffering, but needlessly. And so He takes the thorns and nails | away. He does not pause to judge whether the hurt be large or little. |
| Tx:26.16 | And in its place the love of God can be remembered and will shine | away all memory of sacrifice and loss. |
| Tx:26.17 | seems to hold the door securely barred and locked will merely fall | away and disappear. For it is not your Father's Will that you should |
| Tx:26.30 | the way to Heaven. You but choose whether to go toward Heaven or | away to nowhere. There is nothing else to choose. |
| Tx:26.34 | The tiny instant you would keep and make eternal passed | away in Heaven too soon for anything to notice it had come. What |
| Tx:26.54 | is but your wish to be apart and separate. Forgiveness takes | away what stands between your brother and yourself. It is the wish |
| Tx:26.60 | each idea the mind conceives but adds to its abundance, never takes | away. This is as true of what is idly wished as what is truly willed, |
| Tx:26.83 | Around you angels hover lovingly, to keep | away all darkened thoughts of sin and keep the light where it has |
| Tx:26.89 | added, for the world is purposeless except for this. To add or take | away from this one goal is but to take away all purpose from the |
| Tx:26.89 | for this. To add or take away from this one goal is but to take | away all purpose from the world and from yourself. And each |
| Tx:26.91 | rather know of Them than see injustice which Their Presence shines | away. |
| Tx:27.6 | who will see that every scar is healed and every tear is wiped | away in laughter and in love. And he will look on his forgiveness |
| Tx:27.10 | picture changes not the body into something it is not. It only takes | away from it all signs of accusation and of blamefulness. Pictured |
| Tx:27.22 | is not His, it is not yours, for you must lose what you would take | away. |
| Tx:27.54 | His words from your awareness. Pain compels attention, drawing it | away from Him and focusing upon itself. Its purpose is the same as |
| Tx:27.71 | The dreaming of the world is but a part of your own dream you gave | away and saw as if it were its start and ending both. Yet was it |
| Tx:27.78 | good. It works to get them, doing senseless things, and tosses them | away for senseless things it does not need and does not even want. It |
| Tx:27.81 | are one illusion, too ridiculous for anything but to be laughed | away. How serious they now appear to be! And no one can remember when |
| Tx:27.82 | for laughter, not a cause for fear. Let us return the dream he gave | away unto the dreamer who perceives the dream as separate from |
| Tx:27.82 | accomplishment and real effects. Together, we can laugh them both | away and understand that time cannot intrude upon eternity. It is a |
| Tx:27.87 | make answer with this very simple truth. For this one answer takes | away the cause of every form of sorrow and of pain. The form affects |
| Tx:28.1 | to what has been done. It does not add, but merely takes | away. And what it takes away is long since gone, but being kept in |
| Tx:28.1 | been done. It does not add, but merely takes away. And what it takes | away is long since gone, but being kept in memory, appears to have |
| Tx:28.5 | And thus do their effects appear to be increased by time, which took | away their cause. |
| Tx:28.6 | seek to keep concealed the truth about yourself. Time neither takes | away nor can restore. And yet you make strange use of it, as if the |
| Tx:28.13 | memory of God arises in the mind that has no fear to keep the memory | away. Its own remembering has gone. There is no past to keep its |
| Tx:28.28 | that is already being dreamed. Without support, the dream will fade | away without effects. For it is your support that strengthens it. |
| Tx:28.42 | dreams are yours because you let them be. But if you took your own | away would he be free of them and of his own as well. Your dreams are |
| Tx:28.66 | rain will beat against it but with no effect. The world will wash | away, and yet this house will stand forever, for its strength lies |
| Tx:29.4 | you from the “sacrifice” of love. The body saves you, for it gets | away from total sacrifice and gives you time in which to build again |
| Tx:29.7 | is your allegiance and how frequently you have demanded that love go | away and leave you quietly alone in “peace.” |
| Tx:29.40 | you would make eternal, to ensure that only Heaven would not pass | away. |
| Tx:29.66 | gone forever. Seek not to retain the toys of children. Put them all | away, for you have need of them no more. The dream of judgment is a |
| Tx:29.67 | used for something he is not, for childish things have all been put | away. And what was once a dream of judgment now has changed into a |
| Tx:29.68 | it not. And where is time, when dreams of judgment have been put | away? |
| Tx:29.70 | and have not attacked yourself. So do your childish terrors melt | away and dreams become a sign that you have made a new beginning, not |
| Tx:30.42 | What idol can he need to be himself? For can he give a part of him | away? What is not whole cannot make whole. But what is really asked |
| Tx:30.59 | himself. He has no wish for anything but this. And fear has dropped | away because he is united in his purpose with himself. There is a |
| Tx:30.62 | your image of yourself and what you are, forgiveness washes joyfully | away. Yet God need not create His Son again that what is his be given |
| Tx:30.63 | they see an idol that they want. Yet has their path been surely set | away from idols toward reality. For when they joined their hands, it |
| Tx:30.64 | your hand is everything you need to walk with perfect confidence | away from fear forever and to go straight on and quickly reach the |
| Tx:30.82 | in the day, and all that happens now means something else. You take | away another element, and every meaning shifts accordingly. |
| Tx:31.12 | every image held of [anyone] be loosened from our minds and swept | away. Be innocent of judgment, unaware of any thoughts of evil or of |
| Tx:31.12 | he free to live, as you are free because an ancient learning passed | away and left a place for truth to be reborn. |
| Tx:31.16 | it at times you want to let the follower in you arise and give | away the role of leadership. And this is what you made your brother |
| Tx:31.20 | walks beside us on the selfsame road. He is like us, as near or far | away from what we want as we will let him be. We make no gains he |
| Tx:31.22 | learned before and put aside all images you made. The old will fall | away before the new without your opposition or intent. There will be |
| Tx:31.22 | to learn. But as you hear it, you will understand you need but come | away without the thoughts you did not want and that were never true. |
| Tx:31.33 | you, but you can choose which road will lead you out of conflict and | away from difficulties which concern you not. Yet they are your |
| Tx:31.37 | Who would be willing to be turned | away from all the roadways of the world unless he understood their |
| Tx:31.39 | Think not that happiness is ever found by following a road | away from it. This makes no sense and cannot be the way. To you who |
| Tx:31.39 | repeat that to achieve a goal you must proceed in its direction, not | away from it. And every road that leads the other way will not |
| Tx:31.41 | it must have unless it be but futile wandering? All roads that lead | away from what you are will lead you to confusion and despair. Yet |
| Tx:31.42 | There is no road that leads | away from Him. A journey from yourself does not exist. How foolish |
| Tx:31.47 | so devastating that the face which smiles above it must forever look | away, lest it perceive the treachery it hides. The lesson teaches |
| Tx:31.76 | by an illusion of yourself which holds him off from you and you | away from him. The sword of judgment is the weapon which you give to |
| W1:1.3 | Then look farther | away from your immediate area, and apply the idea to a wider range: |
| W1:9.2 | exercises. Each little step will clear a little of the darkness | away, and understanding will finally come to lighten every corner of |
| W1:37.1 | you and the world blessed together. No one loses; nothing is taken | away from anyone; everyone gains through your holy vision. It |
| W1:41.6 | you find it helpful. But most of all, try to sink down and inward, | away from the world and all the foolish thoughts of the world. You |
| W1:52.4 | I am trying to use time against God. Let me learn to give the past | away, realizing that in so doing I am giving up nothing. |
| W1:56.2 | fulfillment are my inheritance. I have tried to give my inheritance | away in exchange for the world I see. But God has kept my inheritance |
| W1:61.7 | come to you, and repeat the idea to yourself if your mind wanders | away from the central thought. |
| W1:62.3 | sense of weakness, strain, and fatigue from your mind. It will take | away all fear and guilt and pain. It will restore the invulnerability |
| W1:62.4 | it will help those around you as well as those who seem to be far | away in space and time to share this happiness with you. |
| W1:67.5 | over several such related thoughts, try to let all thoughts drop | away for a brief preparatory interval, and then try to reach past all |
| W1:72.9 | You have seen yourself in a body and the truth outside you, locked | away from your awareness by the body's limitations. Now we are going |
| W1:78.4 | So is the seeing of the world reversed, as we look out toward truth, | away from fear. |
| W1:78.12 | as part of God's salvation plan, and not our own. Temptation falls | away when we allow each one we meet to save us and refuse to hide his |
| W1:85.4 | this as a block to sight. The light of the world will shine all this | away. I have no need for this. I want to see. |
| W1:85.7 | Let this not tempt me to look | away from me for my salvation. I will not let this interfere with my |
| W1:92.8 | of strength is constant, sure as love, forever glad to give itself | away because it cannot give but to itself. No one can ask in vain to |
| W1:92.11 | today and recognize that we are being introduced to sight and led | away from darkness to the light, where only miracles can be perceived. |
| W1:93.10 | Then put | away your foolish self-images and spend the rest of the practice |
| W1:94.1 | disappear, and all the thoughts that this world ever held are wiped | away forever by this one idea. Here is salvation accomplished. Here |
| W1:95.18 | Feel this One Self in you, and let it shine | away all your illusions and your doubts. This is your Self, the Son |
| W1:98.2 | way, for we have been absolved from errors. All our sins are washed | away by realizing that they were but mistakes. |
| W1:101.3 | must be feared, for it will kill but slowly, taking everything | away before it grants the welcome boon of death to victims who are |
| W1:105.4 | looking at a gift. God's gifts will never lessen when they are given | away. They but increase thereby. As Heaven's peace and joy intensify |
| W1:105.5 | cannot contain itself fulfill its aim of giving everything it has | away, securing it forever for itself. |
| W1:106.7 | and thus it ends; when everything is yours, and everything is given | away, it will remain with you forever. And the lesson has been |
| W1:106.12 | Today the holy Word of God is kept through your receiving it to give | away, so you can teach the world what giving means by listening and |
| W1:107.5 | the appearances the world presents engender. They will merely blow | away when truth corrects the errors in your mind. |
| W1:109.6 | its frantic fantasies were but the dreams of fever that has passed | away. Let it be still and thankfully accept its healing. No more |
| W1:109.6 | dreams will come now that you rest in God. Take time today to slip | away from dreams and into peace. |
| W1:122.7 | Here is the answer! Do not turn | away in aimless wandering again. Accept salvation now. It is the gift |
| W1:129.2 | to avenge, and pitiless with hate. It gives but to rescind and takes | away all things that you have cherished for a while. No lasting love |
| W1:129.5 | How far | away from this are you who stay bound to this world. And yet how near |
| W1:129.5 | want. Now is the last step certain; now you stand an instant's space | away from timelessness. Here can you but look forward, never back to |
| W1:131.6 | Love. You will find Heaven. Everything you seek but this will fall | away, yet not because it has been taken from you. It will go because |
| W1:131.10 | in place of truth. How could the Son of God make time to take | away the Will of God? He thus denies himself and contradicts what has |
| W1:131.16 | reflects the truth you knew and did not quite forget in wandering | away in dreams. |
| W1:132.14 | apart from God and made to separate the Father and the Son and break | away a part of God Himself and thus destroy His wholeness. Can a |
| W1:133.7 | A temporary value is without all value. Time can never take | away a value that is real. What fades and dies was never there and |
| W1:133.8 | Next, if you choose to take a thing | away from someone else, you will have nothing left. This is because |
| W1:133.8 | things you really have, denying they are there. Who seeks to take | away has been deceived by the illusion loss can offer gain. Yet loss |
| W1:135.11 | adds to your distress of mind. You do not heal but merely take | away the hope of healing, for you fail to see where hope must lie if |
| W1:136.8 | to totter and prepare to fall. Now are you sick that truth may go | away and threaten your establishments no more. |
| W1:136.13 | for such its purpose is. Perhaps it sighs a little when you throw | away its gifts, and yet it knows with perfect certainty that what God |
| W1:137.7 | Just as forgiveness shines | away all sin and the real world will occupy the place of what you |
| W1:140.4 | Atonement does not heal the sick, for that is not a cure. It takes | away the guilt that makes the sickness possible. And that is cure |
| W1:153.1 | its brief relationships and all the “gifts” it merely lends to take | away again, attend this lesson well. The world provides no safety. It |
| W1:153.13 | now. That game is over. Now a quiet time has come in which we put | away the toys of guilt and lock our quaint and childish thoughts of |
| W1:153.18 | will know that Heaven goes with you. Nor would you keep your mind | away from Him a moment, even though your time is spent in offering |
| W1:154.7 | An earthly messenger fulfills his role by giving all the messages | away. The messengers of God perform their part by their acceptance of |
| W1:154.7 | for themselves and show they understand the messages by giving them | away. They choose no roles that are not given them by His authority. |
| W1:154.7 | by His authority. And so they gain by every message which they give | away. |
| W1:155.5 | Between these paths there is another road that leads | away from loss of every kind, for sacrifice and deprivation both are |
| W1:159.2 | the storehouse of your mind where they are laid and giving them | away. |
| W1:159.7 | where the suffering are healed and welcome. No one will be turned | away from this new home where his salvation waits. No one is stranger |
| W1:161.12 | sins, whose sacred hands can take the nails which pierce your own | away and lift the crown of thorns which you have placed upon your |
| W1:162.2 | of sin, and no illusion that the dream contains that will not fade | away before their might. They are the trumpet of awakening that |
| W1:164.2 | The world fades easily | away before His sight. Its sounds grow dim. A melody from far beyond |
| W1:164.8 | go all things you think you want. Your trifling treasures put | away and leave a clean and open space within your mind where Christ |
| W1:165.5 | you then exchange it for? What would induce you now to let it fade | away from your ecstatic vision? For this sight proves that you have |
| W1:166.4 | and homeless too—an outcast wandering so far from home, so long | away, he does not realize he has forgotten where he came from, where |
| W1:168.3 | But finally He comes Himself and takes us in His arms and sweeps | away the cobwebs of our sleep. His gift of grace is more than just an |
| W1:182.9 | be Friend to them. He asks but they protect Him, for His home is far | away, and He will not return to it alone. |
| W1:185.13 | requested and received by anyone. God gives but to unite. To take | away is meaningless to Him. And when it is as meaningless to you, you |
| W1:186.1 | Here is the statement that will one day take all arrogance | away from every mind. Here is the thought of true humility which |
| W1:187.2 | How is this possible? For it is sure that if you give a finite thing | away, your body's eyes will not perceive it yours. Yet we have |
| W1:187.2 | make them. And you do not lack for proof that when you give ideas | away, you strengthen them in your own mind. Perhaps the form in which |
| W1:187.4 | Protect all things you value by the act of giving them | away, and you are sure that you will never lose them. What you |
| W1:187.9 | Be not afraid to look. The blessedness you will behold will take | away all thought of form and leave instead the perfect gift forever |
| W1:187.9 | forever there, forever to increase, forever yours, forever given | away. |
| W1:193.13 | home which cares for him. And He would have all tears be wiped | away with none remaining yet unshed and none but waiting their |
| W1:195.8 | overlook some things and yet retain some other things still locked | away as sins. When your forgiveness is complete, you will have total |
| W1:197.6 | is given you has been withdrawn. But learn to let forgiveness take | away the sins you think you see outside yourself, and you can never |
| W1:197.6 | gifts of God are lent but for a little while before He snatches them | away again in death. For death will have no meaning for you then. |
| W1:198.3 | Forgiveness sweeps all other dreams | away, and though it is itself a dream, it breeds no others. All |
| W1:198.4 | road that leads out of disaster, past all suffering, and finally | away from death. How could there be another way, when this one is the |
| W1:198.6 | in which all will merge as one at last. And as this one will fade | away, the Word of God will come to take its place, for it will be |
| W1:207.1 | where He abides. I need but turn to Him, and every sorrow melts | away as I accept His boundless Love for me. I am not a body. I am |
| W2:229.1 | prevailed. So still it waited for my coming home that I will turn | away no longer from the holy face of Christ. And what I look upon |
| W2:WS.5 | until his Father is remembered, dreams are done, eternity has shined | away the world, and only Heaven now exists at all. |
| W2:WIW.4 | As sight was made to lead | away from truth, it can be redirected. Sounds become the call of God. |
| W2:WIW.4 | you. And let Him give you peace and certainty, which you have thrown | away but Heaven has preserved for you in Him. |
| W2:241.1 | world where its release is set. The day has come when sorrows pass | away and pain is gone. The glory of salvation dawns today upon a |
| W2:WIS.5 | oh Son of God, will you maintain the game of sin? Shall we not put | away these sharp-edged children's toys? How soon will you be ready to |
| W2:WIHS.3 | sinlessness, you would not let His Voice appeal in vain nor turn | away from His replacement for the fearful images and dreams you made. |
| W2:295.1 | He asks this gift that He may offer peace of mind to me and take | away all terror and all pain. And as they are removed from me, the |
| W2:298.1 | at last. All that intruded on my holy sight forgiveness takes | away. And I draw near the end of senseless journeys, mad careers, and |
| W2:306.2 | And so, our Father, we return to You, remembering we never went | away, remembering Your holy gifts to us. In gratitude and |
| W2:WILJ.2 | cause and now without a function in Christ's sight, it merely slips | away to nothingness. There it was born, and there it ends as well. |
| W2:WILJ.2 | began go with it. Bodies now are useless and will therefore fade | away because the Son of God is limitless. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | him. Be not afraid of love. For it alone can heal all sorrow, wipe | away all tears, and gently waken from his dream of pain the Son whom |
| W2:332.1 | The ego makes illusions. Truth undoes its evil dreams by shining them | away. Truth never makes attack. It merely is. And by its presence is |
| W2:333.2 | Father, forgiveness is the light You chose to shine | away all conflict and all doubt and light the way for our return to |
| W2:336.1 | to recall the memory that lies beyond them all. Forgiveness sweeps | away distortions and opens the hidden altar to the truth. Its lilies |
| W2:336.2 | In quiet may forgiveness wipe | away my dreams of separation and of sin. Then let me, Father, look |
| W2:WIM.1 | the return of timelessness and love's awakening, for fear must slip | away under the gentle remedy it gives. |
| W2:343.1 | gift of everything can but be gain. You only give. You never take | away. And You created me to be like You, so sacrifice becomes |
| W2:E.4 | you may think is real. Nor will He give you pleasures that will pass | away, for He gives only the eternal and the good. Let Him prepare you |
| M:4.5 | it usually is so experienced. It seems as if things are being taken | away, and it is rarely understood initially that their lack of value |

| Tx:5.70 | delusional. Your mind does create your future, and it can turn it | back to full creation at any minute if it accepts the Atonement |
| Tx:5.70 | at any minute if it accepts the Atonement first. It will also turn | back to full creation the instant it has done so. Having given up its |
| Tx:5.85 | Holy Spirit's irrevocable set. “Irrevocable” means “cannot be called | back or redirected.” The irrevocable nature of the Holy Spirit's set |
| Tx:5.89 | so high that it cannot be surmounted. You are always being pulled | back to your Creator, because you belong to Him. |
| Tx:6.44 | Only thus can you win | back the knowledge that you threw away. An idea which you share, you |
| Tx:6.66 | only what each one can give to all. He never takes anything | back, because He wants you to keep it. Therefore, His teaching begins |
| Tx:7.53 | This light will shine | back upon you and on the whole Sonship, because this is your proper |
| Tx:7.86 | minds, but they also believe their projections are trying to creep | back into them. That is because the projections have not left their |
| Tx:8.11 | you how to disregard or look beyond everything that would hold you | back. |
| Tx:8.39 | this confidence for both of us and all of us. I bring God's peace | back to all His Children, because I received it of Him for us all. |
| Tx:8.40 | Ours is simply the journey | back to God, Who is our home. Whenever fear intrudes anywhere along |
| Tx:8.41 | behind and reach beyond all attempts of the ego to hold you | back. I go before you, because I am beyond the ego. Reach therefore |
| Tx:8.42 | of the Sonship, whose wholeness is for all. We begin the journey | back by setting out together and gather in our brothers as we |
| Tx:9.43 | it. Its own range precludes this. You can only go beyond it, look | back from a point where sanity exists, and see the contrast. Only by |
| Tx:10.21 | for His function became yours with His gift. Invite this knowledge | back into your minds, and let nothing that will obscure it enter. The |
| Tx:10.33 | realized that you can only darken your own mind. As you bring him | back, so will your mind return. That is the law of God for the |
| Tx:11.42 | chose to “sell” had to be kept for you since you could not “buy” it | back. Yet you must invest in it, not with money but with your spirit. |
| Tx:11.84 | which is forever the only reality. The Atonement is but the way | back to what was never lost. Your Father could not cease to love His |
| Tx:12.22 | is the reference point beyond illusions from which you can look | back on them and see them as insane. But seek this place, and you |
| Tx:12.75 | In me you have already overcome every temptation that would hold you | back. We walk together on the way to quietness that is the gift of |
| Tx:13.61 | its gracious simplicity. With truth before you, you will not look | back. |
| Tx:15.104 | and your brothers from yourself. Through peace you invite them | back and realize that they are where your invitation bids them be. |
| Tx:16.67 | the mockery of salvation which the ego offered you and look not | back with longing on the travesty it made of your relationships. Now |
| Tx:17.3 | you take away from Him Who would release you. Unless you give it | back, it is inevitable that your perspective on reality be warped and |
| Tx:17.59 | and makes no sense until it has already happened. Then you look | back at it and try to piece together what it must have meant. And you |
| Tx:17.79 | that you have risen far beyond any situation that could hold you | back and keep you separate from Him Whose call you answered. |
| Tx:18.8 | with you your mad journey outside yourself, leading you gently | back to the truth and safety within. He brings all your insane |
| Tx:18.25 | seems to live in darkness, and when you are afraid, you have stepped | back. Let us then join quickly in an instant of light, and it will be |
| Tx:18.27 | is given forever, for God Himself received it. You cannot take it | back. You have accepted God. The holiness of your relationship is |
| Tx:18.30 | to darkness. The darkness in you has been brought to light. Carry it | back to darkness from the holy instant to which you brought it. We |
| Tx:18.31 | each other's way. And from this light will the Great Rays extend | back into darkness and forward unto God to shine away the past and so |
| Tx:18.85 | is the little part of you, you think you stole from Heaven. Give it | back to Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of |
| Tx:18.86 | it as true. For you sent forth these messengers to bring this | back to you. |
| Tx:18.90 | mountain tops which rise above it and has no power at all to hold | back anyone willing to climb above it and see the sun. It is not |
| Tx:18.91 | and forms appear and shift from loveliness to the grotesque. And | back and forth they go, as long as you would play the game of |
| Tx:19.42 | from each other seems mightier than the universe, for it would hold | back the universe and its Creator. This little wall would hide the |
| Tx:19.68 | He gave instead, without the limits which would hold its extension | back and so would limit your awareness of it. For what He gives must |
| Tx:20.3 | lighting his way to his redemption and release. Hold him not | back with thorns and nails when his redemption is so near. But let |
| Tx:20.20 | you who made it merciless, and now if mercilessness seems to look | back at you, it can be corrected. |
| Tx:20.53 | welcome what you really want. And from His holy temple, look you not | back on what you have awakened from. For no illusions can attract the |
| Tx:20.57 | given one true relationship beyond the body? Can they be long held | back from looking on the face of Christ? And can they long withhold |
| Tx:21.19 | is insane. You trained it in its testimony, and as it gave it | back to you, you listened and convinced yourself that what it saw was |
| Tx:21.40 | and belief and faith from mind to body. Let them now be given | back to what produced them and can use them still to save itself from |
| Tx:21.48 | of sin, follow in gladness the way to certainty. Be not held | back by fear's insane insistence that sureness lies in doubt. This |
| Tx:22.6 | must make no sense to you. To whom would vision such as this send | back its messages? Surely not you, whose sight is wholly independent |
| Tx:22.33 | at nothingness as if it were a solid wall see truly? It is held | back by form, having been made to guarantee that nothing else but |
| Tx:22.39 | hard, for you have chosen, although you still may think you can go | back and make the other choice. This is not so. A choice made with |
| Tx:24.1 | be yours because it is His Will. Can you believe a shadow can hold | back the Will that holds the universe secure? God does not wait upon |
| Tx:24.3 | is not to know love's purpose. Love offers everything forever. Hold | back but one belief, one offering, and love is gone because you asked |
| Tx:24.32 | the savior God gave to you that you might look on him and give him | back his birthright. It is yours. |
| Tx:25.52 | Let us go | back to what we said before and think of it more carefully. It must |
| Tx:26.9 | door be opened that he may come forth to shine on you and give you | back the gift of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the Holy |
| Tx:26.29 | This tiny spot of sin that stands between you still is holding | back the happy opening of Heaven's gate. How little is the hindrance |
| Tx:26.35 | judgment, and in all belief in sin, is that one instant still called | back, as if it could be made again in time. You keep an ancient |
| Tx:26.38 | up to you to see the past and put it in the present? You can not go | back. And everything that points the way in the direction of the past |
| Tx:26.40 | past that God remembers not and is not there? Now you are shifting | back and forth between the past and present. Sometimes the past seems |
| Tx:26.72 | in sin arouses fear and, like its cause, is looking forward, looking | back but overlooking what is here and now. Yet only here and now its |
| Tx:27.47 | on as a condemnation by the one who could have saved it but stepped | back because he was afraid of being healed? The eyes of all the dying |
| Tx:27.55 | but shift from name to name, as one steps forward and another | back. Yet which is foremost makes no difference. Sin's witnesses hear |
| Tx:28.11 | And they will join in doing nothing to prevent its radiant extension | back into the mind Which caused all minds to be. Born out of sharing, |
| Tx:28.24 | appearing as a cause. The miracle is the first step in giving | back to cause the function of causation, not effect. For this |
| Tx:28.27 | role in making up the dream. They are the glad effects of taking | back the consequence of sickness to its cause. The body is released |
| Tx:29.3 | turn again into an enemy. [Let him come close to you, and you jumped | back; as you approached, he instantly withdrew.] A cautious |
| Tx:29.9 | Him? What toys or trinkets in the gap could serve to hold you | back an instant from His love? Would you allow the body to say “no” |
| Tx:29.26 | The dreams you think you like would hold you | back as much as those in which the fear is seen. For every dream is |
| Tx:30.62 | Yet God need not create His Son again that what is his be given | back to him. The gap between your brother and yourself was never |
| Tx:30.63 | stand already at the edge of the real world. Perhaps they still look | back and think they see an idol that they want. Yet has their path |
| Tx:30.65 | from the world. And with it goes all hatred and all fear. Look | back no longer, for what lies ahead is all you ever wanted in your |
| Tx:30.66 | Do not look | back except in honesty. And when an idol tempts you, think of this: |
| Tx:30.68 | pay the cost as well as you. For he will be delayed when you look | back, and you will not perceive Whose loving hand you hold. Look |
| Tx:30.83 | made on different aspects of experience. And then in looking | back you think you see another meaning in what went before. What have |
| Tx:31.20 | let him be. We make no gains he does not make with us, and we fall | back if he does not advance. Take not his hand in anger but in love, |
| Tx:31.23 | progress if you think the same, advancing only when he would step | back and falling back when he would go ahead? For so do you forget |
| Tx:31.23 | think the same, advancing only when he would step back and falling | back when he would go ahead? For so do you forget the journey's goal, |
| Tx:31.25 | there is confusion and a sense of endless doubting as you stagger | back and forward in the darkness and alone. Yet these are but |
| W1:42.8 | is not appropriate for today's exercises. Try merely to step | back and let the thoughts come. If you find this difficult, it is |
| W1:45.4 | in favor of truth. We will not let the thoughts of the world hold us | back, and we will not let the beliefs of the world tell us that what |
| W1:57.6 | upon has taken on the light of my forgiveness and shines forgiveness | back at me. In this light, I begin to see what my illusions about |
| W1:70.15 | My salvation comes from me. Nothing outside of me can hold me | back. Within me is the world's salvation and my own. |
| W1:73.3 | is lost to you in this strange bartering, in which guilt is traded | back and forth and grievances increase with each exchange. Can such a |
| W1:75.13 | Should you be tempted, say to anyone who seems to pull you | back to darkness: |
| W1:92.8 | and flicker and go out. It does not shift from night to day and | back to darkness till the morning comes again. The light of strength |
| W1:95.9 | is not delayed in His teaching by your mistakes. He can be held | back only by your unwillingness to let them go. Let us therefore be |
| W1:97.10 | this gift which you received of Him, increase its power, and give it | back to you. |
| W1:98.10 | that you spend with Him, He will accept your words and give them | back to you all bright with faith and confidence so strong and steady |
| W1:100.10 | that you may look on Him? What little thought has power to hold you | back? What foolish goal can keep you from success when He Who calls |
| W1:R3.6 | come to your assistance. Give direction at the start, and then lean | back in quiet faith and let the mind employ the thoughts you gave as |
| W1:123.1 | pathways and to smoother roads. There is no thought of turning | back and no implacable resistance to the truth. A bit of wavering |
| W1:123.6 | since He receives your gifts in loving gratitude and gives them | back a thousand and a hundred thousand more than they were given. He |
| W1:128.4 | temptation to believe the world has anything you want to hold you | back. Nothing is here to cherish. Nothing here is worth one instant |
| W1:129.5 | space away from timelessness. Here can you but look forward, never | back to see again the world you do not want. Here is the world that |
| W1:131.5 | he is wrong, he finds correction; when he wanders off, he is led | back to his appointed task. |
| W1:132.7 | road to truth. He will return and go still farther, or perhaps step | back a while and then return again. |
| W1:133.1 | and far from what the student has already learned, to bring him | back to practical concerns. This we will do today. We will not speak |
| W1:151.13 | that comes to mind, remove the elements of dreams, and give them | back to you as clean ideas that do not contradict the Will of God. |
| W1:151.14 | Give Him your thoughts, and He will give them | back as miracles which joyously proclaim the wholeness and the |
| W1:155.2 | Yet when they find their own reality is even here, then they step | back and let it lead the way. What other choice is really theirs to |
| W1:155.6 | appears to cling to you that you may reach them. Yet it has stepped | back, and it is not illusion that they hear you speak of nor illusion |
| W1:155.7 | for defeat, and aims which will remain impossible. All this steps | back as truth comes forth in you to lead your brothers from the ways |
| W1:155.8 | holy Son of God. It is but from illusions he is saved. As they step | back, he finds himself again. |
| W1:155.10 | to keep the truth apart from God's completion, holy as Himself. Step | back in faith, and let truth lead the way. You know not where you go, |
| W1:155.15 | I will step | back and let Him lead the way, for I would walk along the road to Him. |
| W1:156.6 | This is the way salvation works. As you step | back, the Light in you steps forward and encompasses the world. It |
| W1:158.4 | For we but see the journey from the point at which it ended, looking | back on it, imagining we make it once again; reviewing mentally what |
| W1:159.8 | set their roots. This is their home. They can be brought from here | back to the world, but they can never grow in its unnourishing and |
| W1:159.9 | increase. His lilies do not leave their home when they are carried | back into the world. Their roots remain. They do not leave their |
| W1:164.6 | vision, given you from far beyond all things within the world, looks | back on them in a new light. And what you see becomes the healing and |
| W1:166.1 | He knows His Son. He gives without exception, holding nothing | back that can contribute to your happiness. And yet unless your will |
| W1:169.12 | and brought a clear reflection of the unity he felt an instant | back to bless the world? How could you finally attain to it forever |
| W1:169.13 | instant and accept the gifts that grace provided you. You carry them | back to yourself. And revelation stands not far behind. Its coming is |
| W1:R5.3 | sure remembering. We wander off, but You will not forget to call us | back. Quicken our footsteps now, that we may walk more certainly and |
| W1:R5.9 | and looks for me. I have forgotten no one. Help me now to lead you | back to where the journey was begun, to make another choice with me. |
| W1:173.2 | [155] I will step | back and let Him lead the way. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:182.7 | He whispers of His home unceasingly to you. For He would bring you | back with Him, that He Himself might stay and not return again where |
| W1:184.10 | things share; the one acknowledgment of what is true. And then step | back to darkness, not because you think it real, but only to proclaim |
| W1:185.1 | in any form, in any place or time. Heaven would be completely given | back to full awareness, memory of God entirely restored, the |
| W1:188.1 | Source. It shines in you because it lights your home and leads you | back to where it came from and you are at home. |
| W1:188.7 | were born within your mind as yours was born in God's. They lead you | back to peace from where they came but to remind you how you must |
| W1:188.8 | in us today. We take our wandering thoughts and gently bring them | back to where they fall in line with all the thoughts we share with |
| W1:188.8 | them, ordering that they depart from us. But now we call them | back and wash them clean of strange desires and disordered wishes. We |
| W1:192.10 | here on earth is only to forgive him, that you may accept him | back as your Identity. He is as God created him. And you are what he |
| W1:193.2 | can correct his erring sight and give him vision that will lead him | back to where perception ceases. God does not perceive at all. Yet it |
| W1:196.8 | without. And God, Whom you had thought to banish, can be welcomed | back within the holy mind He never left. |
| W1:196.11 | yourself His Son. Pray that the instant may be soon—today. Step | back from fear and make advance to love. |
| W1:197.3 | released from hell forever. Is it this you would undo by taking | back your gifts because they were not honored? It is you who honor |
| W1:197.4 | acknowledged by the Heart of God Himself. And would you take them | back when He has gratefully accepted them? |
| W2:233.1 | wasting time in vain imaginings. Today I come to You. I will step | back and merely follow You. Be You the Guide and I the follower who |
| W2:248.1 | and lies about the holy Son of God. Now am I ready to accept him | back as God created him, and as he is. |
| W2:WIS.5 | no sin. Creation is unchanged. Would you still hold return to Heaven | back? How long, oh holy Son of God, how long? |
| W2:254.2 | our words or actions. When such thoughts occur, we quietly step | back and look at them, and then we let them go. We do not want what |
| W2:265.1 | the world because I laid my “sins” on it and saw them looking | back at me. How fierce they seemed! And how deceived was I to think |
| W2:266.1 | Voice to me. In them are You reflected, and in them does Christ look | back upon me from my Self. Let not Your Son forget Your holy Name. |
| W2:WICR.4 | seem to be discrete and unaware of our eternal unity with Him. Yet | back of all our doubts, past all our fears, there still is certainty. |
| W2:324.1 | off a while and then return. Your loving Voice will always call me | back and guide my feet aright. My brothers all can follow in the way |
| W2:341.1 | love and tenderness so deep and dear and still the universe smiles | back on You and shares Your holiness. How pure, how safe, how sacred |
| W2:345.1 | can be recognized and seen to work. The miracles I give are given | back in just the form I need to help me with the problems I perceive. |
| W2:FL.3 | to recognize as part of God Himself. And thus His memory is given | back completely and complete. |
| M:13.4 | Does one whose vision has already glimpsed the face of Christ look | back with longing on a slaughter house? No one who has escaped the |
| M:13.4 | house? No one who has escaped the world and all its ills looks | back on it with condemnation. Yet he must rejoice that he is free of |
| M:19.3 | eyes, distorts perception and brings witness of the distorted world | back to the mind that made the lens and holds it very dear. |
| M:21.4 | process is merely a special case of the workbook lesson “I will step | back and let Him lead the way.” The teacher of God accepts the words |
| M:22.5 | not correct mistakes, and distorted perception does not heal. Step | back now, teacher of God. You have been wrong. Lead not the way, for |
| M:25.5 | may still be strong enough to rally under this new temptation to win | back strength by guile. Many have not seen through the ego's defenses |

| Tx:20.46 | experience of both a holy and an unholy relationship. The first is | based on love and rests on it, serene and undisturbed. The body does |
| Tx:20.46 | not intrude upon it. Any relationship in which the body enters is | based not on love, but on idolatry. Love wishes to be known, |
| Tx:22.2 | all this would be real if sin were so. For an unholy relationship is | based on differences, where each one thinks the other has what he has |

| Tx:2.107 | shortening but not abolishing time. If a sufficient number of people | become truly miracle-minded quickly, the shortening process can be |
| Tx:3.1 | You will also need them for preparation. Without this, you may | become much too fearful when the unexpected does occur to make |
| Tx:3.53 | your own creation and what you create is so profound that it has | become literally impossible for you to know anything. Knowledge is |
| Tx:3.79 | conflict. You have not yet gone back far enough, and that is why you | become so fearful. As you approach the beginning, you feel the fear |
| Tx:4.17 | experienced it, you will withdraw all protection from the ego and | become totally without the investment in fear. Your investment is |
| Tx:4.29 | willed to cooperate in a concerted and very commendable effort to | become both harmless and helpful, two attributes which must go |
| Tx:4.76 | was, “What for?” He could not ask this because it would immediately | become apparent that there was no sense in his efforts even if he |
| Tx:4.91 | to a brother, you do approach me and, as you withdraw from him, I | become distant to you. Your giant step forward was to insist on a |
| Tx:5.5 | is an act of thought by which two minds perceive their oneness and | become glad. This gladness calls to every part of the Sonship to |
| Tx:5.8 | by being given away. The more who believe in them, the stronger they | become. Everything is an idea. How, then, is it possible that giving |
| Tx:5.30 | I could come to provide the model for how to think. Psychology has | become the study of behavior, but no one denies the basic law that |
| Tx:5.34 | just as you have. The dissociation is healed in both of you as you | become aware of the Call for God in him and thus acknowledge its |
| Tx:5.51 | You have | become willing to receive my messages as I give them without |
| Tx:5.59 | Perhaps some of our concepts will | become clearer and more personally meaningful if the ego's use of |
| Tx:5.94 | love to some Soul which God created. Perceiving this as “sin,” you | become defensive because you expect attack. The decision to react in |
| Tx:6.10 | that what you believe you will teach. Believe with me, and we will | become equal as teachers. Your resurrection is your reawakening. I am |
| Tx:6.52 | as true as He is, but what was once quite certain in your minds has | become only the ability for certainty. The introduction of abilities |
| Tx:6.63 | miracles. This is familiar enough to you by now, but it has not yet | become believable. Therefore, you do not understand it and cannot use |
| Tx:7.2 | to add to the Creator of the Kingdom. You claim this power when you | become vigilant only for God and His Kingdom. By accepting this power |
| Tx:7.23 | are applied long enough to one goal, the abilities themselves | become unified. This is because they are channelized in one direction |
| Tx:7.61 | it which have engendered a state of war, and vigilance therefore has | become essential. Vigilance has no place at all in peace. It is |
| Tx:7.110 | Sonship and given thanks to God. Everyone who learns this lesson has | become the perfect teacher, because he has learned it of the Holy |
| Tx:8.60 | which he cannot learn. His sense of adequacy suffers, and he must | become depressed. Being faced with an impossible learning situation, |
| Tx:8.61 | to Him replaces devotion to the ego. In this sense, the body does | become a temple to God, because His Voice abides in it by directing |
| Tx:8.76 | you handle them results in nothing. The more complicated the results | become, the harder it may be to recognize their nothingness, but it |
| Tx:8.98 | that God has left him, but he does not care. He will, however, | become very fearful and hence very angry if anyone suggests that God |
| Tx:9.31 | How can you | become increasingly aware of the Holy Spirit in you except by His |
| Tx:9.35 | of what you have given them will teach you its value. They will | become the witnesses to your reality, as you were created witnesses |
| Tx:9.42 | The ego will begin to attack your motives as soon as they | become clearly out of accord with its perception of you. This is when |
| Tx:9.48 | is of God and only of Him. Therefore, it is in you. Whenever you | become aware of it, however dimly, you abandon the ego automatically, |
| Tx:9.79 | for you do not value yourselves. When you do not value yourself, you | become sick, but my value of you can heal you because the value of |
| Tx:9.87 | To be out of control is to be out of reason, and the mind does | become unreasonable without reason. This is merely a matter of |
| Tx:9.107 | must learn to look only on the eternal. If you allow yourselves to | become preoccupied with the temporal, you are living in time. As |
| Tx:10.17 | and the more you practice it, the better teacher and learner you | become. If you have denied truth, what better witnesses to its |
| Tx:10.49 | you are believing that attack has power. Very simply, then, you have | become afraid of yourself. And no one wills to learn what he believes |
| Tx:10.61 | I am leading you to a new kind of experience, which you will | become less and less willing to deny. Learning of Christ is easy, for |
| Tx:10.75 | good and the bad, the false and the true. For as Heaven and earth | become one, even the real world will vanish from your sight. The end |
| Tx:10.75 | the transfer of all perception to knowledge. The Bible tells you to | become as little children. Little children recognize that they do not |
| Tx:10.85 | without your help, the Help of God goes with you everywhere. As you | become willing to accept this Help by asking for it, you will give it |
| Tx:11.5 | a personal investment is a reliable witness, for truth to him has | become what he wants it to be. If you are unwilling to perceive an |
| Tx:11.26 | Whenever you | become angry with a brother, for whatever reason, you are believing |
| Tx:11.51 | conditions, which you can neither provide nor understand, you will | become excellent learners and teachers. But it is not so yet and will |
| Tx:11.59 | His Father, perception fuses into knowledge because perception has | become so holy that its transfer to holiness is merely its natural |
| Tx:11.59 | When this has been accomplished, perception and knowledge have | become so similar that they share the unification of the laws of God. |
| Tx:11.64 | for it. For you can be aware of what you cannot see, and it can | become compellingly real to you as its presence becomes manifest |
| Tx:11.72 | you sought. That is because you do not yet want only that. Yet as I | become more real to you, you will learn that you do want only that. |
| Tx:11.84 | upon it, you will remember that it was always so. Nothingness will | become invisible, for you will at last have seen truly. Redeemed |
| Tx:12.6 | but if you will consider your reactions to it, you will | become increasingly convinced that this is so. |
| Tx:12.56 | and willingness is signified by giving. Those who accept love of you | become your willing witnesses to the love you gave them, and it is |
| Tx:12.71 | comes to you of Him comes safely, for He will ensure it never can | become a dark spot, hidden in your mind and kept to hurt you. Under |
| Tx:12.71 | not a traveler through outer worlds. However holy his perception may | become, no world outside himself holds his inheritance. Within |
| Tx:13.14 | Therefore, you cannot value one without the other, and guilt has | become as true for you as innocence. You do not believe the Son of |
| Tx:13.16 | to condemn the Son of God in part. Those whom you see as guilty | become the witnesses to guilt in you, and you will see it there, for |
| Tx:13.35 | Forgetfulness and sleep and even death | become the ego's best advice for how to deal with the perceived and |
| Tx:13.53 | He must introduce the simple truth into a thought system which has | become so twisted and so complex that you cannot see that it means |
| Tx:13.59 | with them. Because you taught them gladness and release, they will | become your teachers in release and gladness. |
| Tx:13.92 | When you have learned how to decide with God, all decisions | become as easy and as right as breathing. There is no effort, and you |
| Tx:14.7 | To accuse is not to understand. The happy learners of the Atonement | become the teachers of the innocence that is the right of all that |
| Tx:14.27 | that if they were brought together their joint acceptance would | become impossible. But if one is kept in darkness from the other, |
| Tx:14.42 | In this world you can | become a spotless mirror in which the Holiness of your Creator shines |
| Tx:14.72 | Those who remember always that they know nothing, but who have | become willing to learn everything, will learn it. But whenever they |
| Tx:15.1 | learning. He has not fulfilled His teaching function until you have | become such a consistent learner that you learn only of Him. When |
| Tx:15.68 | —that the more anger you invest outside yourself, the safer you | become. |
| Tx:15.69 | to Him. What He can make of them, you do not know, but you will | become willing to find out if you are willing, first, to perceive |
| Tx:15.82 | For all its parts are joined in God through Christ, where they | become like to their Father. For Christ knows of no separation from |
| Tx:15.85 | needful for you to learn just what this shift entails, so you will | become willing to make it permanent. Given this willingness, it will |
| Tx:15.98 | of love, which must be paid by fear. How fearful, then, has God | become to you, and how great a sacrifice do you believe His love |
| Tx:15.101 | yourself from where it is not. Your brothers and your Father have | become very fearful to you. And you would bargain with them for a few |
| Tx:16.53 | power to what you think you have attacked? So fearful has the truth | become to you that unless it is weak and little, [and unworthy of |
| Tx:16.58 | How simple does this choice | become when it is perceived as only what it is. For only fantasies |
| Tx:16.62 | separate bodies seeking to join each other in separate unions and to | become one by losing. When two individuals seek to become one, they |
| Tx:16.62 | unions and to become one by losing. When two individuals seek to | become one, they are trying to decrease their magnitude. Each would |
| Tx:16.68 | the bridge. Yet as you cross to join it, it will join with you and | become one with you. And you will think in glad astonishment that for |
| Tx:17.1 | Only in waking is the full release from them, for only then does it | become perfectly apparent that they had no effect on reality at all |
| Tx:17.6 | He will accomplish it; not you. But forget not this: When you | become disturbed and lose your peace of mind because another is |
| Tx:17.12 | knows that he has always rested there in peace. Even salvation will | become a dream and vanish from his mind. For salvation is the end of |
| Tx:17.16 | to go by the name of love. And finally why all such relationships | become the attempt at union through the body, for only bodies can be |
| Tx:17.21 | you can see it more and more. For you will want it more and more and | become increasingly unwilling to let it be hidden from you. And you |
| Tx:17.47 | inevitably appalled. Their perception of the relationship may even | become quite disorganized. And yet, the former organization of their |
| Tx:18.4 | of illusion for truth, of fragmentation for wholeness. It has | become so splintered and subdivided and divided again, over and over, |
| Tx:18.16 | not expect it to be gone. In dreams you arrange everything. People | become what you would have them be, and what they do you order. No |
| Tx:18.20 | misery. As its unholiness kept it a thing apart, its holiness will | become an offering to everyone. |
| Tx:18.22 | is unreal. The wish to make it is incredible. Your relationship has | become one in which the wish has been removed because its purpose has |
| Tx:18.40 | the holy instant is difficult for you, it is because you have | become the arbiter of what is possible and remain unwilling to give |
| Tx:18.45 | useful to the Holy Spirit, Who has a special function here. It will | become the happy dream through which He can spread joy to thousands |
| Tx:18.59 | encompass it. It becomes part of you as you unite with it. And both | become whole as neither is perceived as separate. What really happens |
| Tx:19.9 | has hurt your mind and how confused your own identification has | become because of it! You do not see how great [is] the devastation |
| Tx:19.25 | not error. Sin will be repeated because of this attraction. Fear can | become so acute that the sin is denied the acting out, but while the |
| Tx:19.43 | thrust salvation away from the giver of salvation? For such have you | become. Peace could no more depart from you than from God. Fear not |
| Tx:19.71 | which is the invitation to pain. For it invites fear to enter and | become your purpose. The attraction of guilt must enter with it, and |
| Tx:20.11 | knowing his savior stands beside him? With him, your vision has | become the greatest power for the undoing of illusion that God |
| Tx:20.26 | and on ourselves. Here all thoughts of any separation between us | become impossible. You who were prisoners in separation are now made |
| Tx:21.6 | The blind | become accustomed to their world by their adjustments to it. They |
| Tx:21.35 | Faith and belief | become attached to vision, as all the means that once served sin are |
| Tx:22.10 | they with him. And the strange, shifting ones he sees about him will | become to him his comforters, and he will recognize his home and see |
| Tx:22.37 | other and is attracted to him to perpetuate his sins. And so it must | become impossible for each to see himself as causing sin by his |
| Tx:22.40 | holy place He will return with you, not leaving it nor you. You will | become His messengers, returning Him unto Himself. |
| Tx:22.42 | Into your joined hands is it safely given, for you who share it have | become its willing guardians and protectors. |
| Tx:22.56 | And no illusion can disturb the peace of a relationship which has | become the means of peace. |
| Tx:22.62 | from its Creator]. And thus it seems as if love could attack and | become fearful. |
| Tx:23.2 | You will believe that everything you use for sin can hurt you and | become your enemy. And you will fight against it and try to weaken it |
| Tx:23.18 | disappears. So is the memory of God obscured in minds that have | become illusion's battleground. Yet far beyond this senseless war it |
| Tx:23.25 | becomes impossible to turn to Him for help in misery. For now He has | become the “enemy” Who caused it and to Whom appeal is useless. Nor |
| Tx:23.25 | God. And now salvation must remain impossible because the savior has | become the enemy. |
| Tx:23.44 | recognize assault upon your peace in any form, if only thus does it | become impossible that you lose sight of it? It can be kept shining |
| Tx:24.4 | reached, and meaningless decisions have been made and kept hidden to | become beliefs, now given power to direct all subsequent decisions. |
| Tx:24.6 | “above” it, sinless by comparison with it. And thus does specialness | become a means and end at once. For specialness not only sets apart |
| Tx:24.7 | Illusions can attack it, and they do. For what your brother must | become to keep your specialness is an illusion. He who is “worse” |
| Tx:24.71 | my own beloved son, in whom I am well pleased.” Thus does the “son” | become the means to serve his “father's” purpose. Not identical, not |
| Tx:25.44 | Eyes | become used to darkness, and the light of brilliant day seems painful |
| Tx:25.48 | but changed in form to let it serve his brother and himself and thus | become a means to save instead of lose. Salvation is no more than a |
| Tx:25.86 | The little problems that you keep and hide | become your secret sins because you did not choose to let them be |
| Tx:26.5 | your special function has this world no meaning for you. Yet it can | become a treasure house as rich and limitless as Heaven itself. No |
| Tx:26.29 | Where sin once was perceived will rise a world which will | become an altar to the truth, and you will join the lights of Heaven |
| Tx:26.70 | wipe out the space you see between you still and let you instantly | become as one. And it is here you fear the loss would lie. Do not |
| Tx:26.79 | and sparkling in the summer sun. What was a place of death has now | become a living temple in a world of light. Because of Them. It is |
| Tx:26.82 | The holiest of all the spots on earth is where an ancient hatred has | become a present love. And They come quickly to the living temple, |
| Tx:27.11 | can come and perfect healing take the place of death. The body can | become a sign of life, a promise of redemption, and a breath of |
| Tx:27.23 | to punish sins you think are yours in someone else. And thus does he | become your victim, not your brother, different from you in that he |
| Tx:27.25 | half the error, which you think is all of it. Your brother's sins | become the central target for correction, lest your errors and his |
| Tx:27.72 | you dream. Yet underneath this dream is yet another in which you | become the murderer, the secret enemy, the scavenger and the |
| Tx:27.82 | of God remembered not to laugh. In his forgetting did the thought | become a serious idea and possible of both accomplishment and real |
| Tx:28.37 | you will suffer pain with him because that is your wish. And you | become a figure in his dream of pain, as he in yours. So do you both |
| Tx:28.37 | become a figure in his dream of pain, as he in yours. So do you both | become illusions and without identity. You could be anyone or |
| Tx:28.41 | as well as his. You cannot do his part, but this you do when you | become a passive figure in his dream instead of dreamer of your own. |
| Tx:29.15 | to those who are confused is meaningless, and shift and change | become the law on which they predicate their lives. |
| Tx:29.28 | has failed to fill the function you allotted him? And does not this | become the “reason” your attack is justified? The dreams you think |
| Tx:29.29 | How happy would your dreams | become if you were not the one who gave the “proper” role to every |
| Tx:29.70 | attacked yourself. So do your childish terrors melt away and dreams | become a sign that you have made a new beginning, not another try to |
| Tx:30.2 | form which sees you through the rest. It is not wise to let yourself | become preoccupied with every step you take. The proper set, adopted |
| Tx:30.9 | directed without fear, for opposition will not first arise and then | become a problem in itself. |
| Tx:30.70 | by responding in a way which is not justified, your pardon will | become the answer to attack that has been made. And thus is pardon |
| Tx:30.81 | to make an idol of the Son of God you will not pardon. For he has | become to you a graven image and a sign of death. Is this your |
| Tx:30.86 | perception shift and meaning change. In one united goal does this | become impossible, for your agreement makes interpretation stabilize |
| Tx:31.1 | exactly how to tell one from the other and just what to do if you | become confused. Why then do you persist in learning not such simple |
| Tx:31.26 | outcomes, there is first one thing that must be overlearned. It must | become a habit of response so typical of everything you do that it |
| Tx:31.29 | would abide in it. It sickens at the bidding of the mind that would | become its prisoner. And it grows old and dies because that mind is |
| Tx:31.48 | your brother is condemned eternally. For what you are has now | become his sin. For this is no forgiveness possible. No longer does |
| W1:1.5 | to apply it to everything you see, for these exercises should not | become ritualistic. Only be sure that nothing you see is specifically |
| W1:4.5 | or so. You are too inexperienced as yet to avoid a tendency to | become pointlessly preoccupied. Further, since these exercises are |
| W1:10.1 | This idea applies to all the thoughts of which you are aware or | become aware in the practice periods. The reason the idea is |
| W1:12.2 | fairly constant time interval. Do not allow the time of the shift to | become markedly longer or shorter, but try, instead, to keep a |
| W1:21.2 | The degree of the emotion you experience does not matter. You will | become increasingly aware that a slight twinge of annoyance is |
| W1:25.1 | that is what it means. It is in recognizing this that your goals | become unified. It is in recognizing this that what you see is given |
| W1:27.2 | asked of you when you say you want to see above all else. If you | become uneasy about the lack of reservation involved, add: |
| W1:30.5 | To aid in helping you to | become more accustomed to this idea as well, devote several practice |
| W1:33.3 | be made immediately when any situation arises which tempts you to | become disturbed. For these applications, say: |
| W1:39.10 | Sustained concentration is very difficult at first. It will | become much easier as your mind becomes more disciplined and less |
| W1:43.1 | forever in your minds. With this link with God, perception will | become so changed and purified that it will lead to knowledge. That |
| W1:43.2 | purpose. Made by the Son of God for an unholy purpose, it must | become the means for the restoration of his holiness to his |
| W1:43.11 | again. Do not allow any protracted period to occur in which you | become preoccupied with irrelevant thoughts. Return to the first |
| W1:46.13 | are needed. They will be needed at any time during the day when you | become aware of any kind of negative reaction to anyone, present or |
| W1:65.8 | After a while, interfering thoughts will | become harder to find. Try, however, to continue a minute or so |
| W1:66.3 | will not engage in ceaseless arguments about what it is. We will not | become hopelessly involved in defining happiness and determining the |
| W1:68.2 | Him. It makes you believe that He is like what you think you have | become, for no one can conceive of his Creator as unlike himself. |
| W1:68.3 | holds grievances denies he was created by Love, and his Creator has | become fearful to him in his dream of hate. Who can dream of hatred |
| W1:68.6 | hold against those you like and even think you love. It will quickly | become apparent that there is no one against whom you do not cherish |
| W1:71.9 | will work, and other plans will not. Do not allow yourself to | become depressed or angry at the second part; it is inherent in the |
| W1:72.11 | Our goal in the longer practice periods today is to | become aware that God's plan for salvation has already been |
| W1:73.2 | that seem to attack you and call for “righteous” judgment. They | become the middlemen the ego employs to traffic in grievances and |
| W1:82.2 | finds expression through me. My forgiveness is the means by which I | become aware of the light of the world in me. My forgiveness is the |
| W1:87.5 | but God's. I am safe today because there is no will but God's. I can | become afraid only when I believe that there is another will. I try |
| W1:91.3 | do not see is there sounds like insanity. It is very difficult to | become convinced that it is insanity not to see what is there and to |
| W1:91.12 | Try to remove your faith from it, if only for a moment. You will | become accustomed to keeping faith with the more worthy in you as we |
| W1:93.15 | of fear by repeating these thoughts again. Should you be tempted to | become angry with someone, tell him silently: |
| W1:101.4 | vicious wishes in which sin is born. If sin is real, salvation has | become your bitter enemy, the curse of God upon you who have |
| W1:103.2 | and no opposite. Fear is associated then with love, and its results | become the heritage of minds that think what they have made is real. |
| W1:105.3 | to reverse your view of giving, so you can receive. For giving has | become a source of fear, and so you would avoid the only means by |
| W1:106.7 | of all miracles has need that you receive them first and thus | become the joyous giver of what you received. Thus does salvation |
| W1:108.2 | the light the body's eyes behold. It is a state of mind which has | become so unified that darkness cannot be perceived at all. And thus |
| W1:121.7 | to you imploringly for Heaven here and now. It has no hope, but you | become its hope. And as its hope, do you become your own. The |
| W1:121.7 | It has no hope, but you become its hope. And as its hope, do you | become your own. The unforgiving mind must learn through your |
| W1:123.5 | loving may the message be. Thanks be to you who heard, for you | become the messenger who brings His Voice with you and let it echo |
| W1:135.21 | Without defenses, you | become a light which Heaven gratefully acknowledges to be its own. |
| W1:136.7 | the whole and seen as separate and as wholes within themselves, they | become symbols standing for attack upon the whole, successful in |
| W1:136.20 | before. You need do nothing now to make it well, for sickness has | become impossible. |
| W1:137.11 | Those who are healed | become the instruments of healing. Nor does time elapse between the |
| W1:138.3 | what appears as opposites. Decision lets one of conflicting goals | become the aim of effort and expenditure of time. Without decision, |
| W1:153.3 | can be hoped for nor obtained. Attack, defense; defense, attack, | become the circles of the hours and the days that bind the mind in |
| W1:154.3 | It is through His ability to hear One Voice Which is His own that you | become aware at last there is One Voice in you. And that One Voice |
| W1:154.6 | And it is only as they can accept them for themselves that they | become able to bring them further and to give them everywhere that |
| W1:154.6 | messengers, they did not write the messages they bear, but they | become their first receivers in the truest sense, receiving to |
| W1:154.8 | Would you receive the messages of God? For thus do you | become His messengers. You are appointed now. And yet you wait to |
| W1:157.7 | As this experience increases and all goals but this | become of little worth, the world to which you will return becomes a |
| W1:159.8 | provides. They need the love with which He looks on them. And they | become His messengers who give as they received. |
| W1:161.6 | text, where it is often emphasized. This is the reason bodies easily | become fear's symbols. You have many times been urged to look beyond |
| W1:163.5 | Unholy in defeat, he has | become what death would have him be. His epitaph, which death itself |
| W1:166.3 | must believe that, to accept God's gifts, however evident they may | become, however urgently he may be called to claim them as his own, |
| W1:166.15 | Betray it not. | Become the living proof of what Christ's touch can offer everyone. |
| W1:169.3 | the call to waken. It is not shut tight against God's Voice. It has | become aware that there are things it does not know and thus is ready |
| W1:170.7 | With love as enemy must cruelty | become a god, and gods demand that those who worship them obey their |
| W1:R5.12 | Let this review | become a time in which we share a new experience for you, yet one as |
| W1:I2.2 | speaks for itself. Your motivation will be so intensified that words | become of little consequence. You will be sure of what you want and |
| W1:181.3 | little focuses give way to our great need to let our sinlessness | become apparent. We instruct our minds that it is this we seek and |
| W1:181.9 | And the love He feels for us becomes our own as well. This will | become the only thing we see reflected in the world and in ourselves. |
| W1:182.9 | Rest with Him frequently today. For He was willing to | become a little child that you might learn of Him how strong is he |
| W1:183.4 | gods you value. They have lost the name of god you gave them. They | become anonymous and valueless to you, although before you let the |
| W1:183.6 | but this today; repeat God's Name slowly again and still again. | Become oblivious to every name but His. |
| W1:183.7 | Hear nothing else. Let all your thoughts | become anchored on this. No other words we use except at the |
| W1:183.9 | is part of Him, creating in His Name. Sit silently, and let His Name | become the all-encompassing idea which holds your mind completely. |
| W1:183.11 | when God's Son calls on his Father's Name. His Father's Thoughts | become his own. He makes his claim to all his Father gave, is giving |
| W1:184.4 | a lack of space, a sense of unity or vision which sees differently | become the threats which it must overcome, conflict with, and deny. |
| W1:184.9 | practicing, it is this thought that will release you from them. They | become but means by which you can communicate in ways the world can |
| W1:185.3 | Two minds with one intent | become so strong that what they will becomes the Will of God. For |
| W1:188.2 | so easily be looked upon that arguments which prove it is not there | become ridiculous. Who can deny the presence of what he beholds in |

| W1:192.8 | he spends his time in keeping watch on him. The bars which limit him | become the world in which the jailer lives, along with him. And it is |
| W1:197.2 | what their thoughts can do. Deny your strength, and weakness must | become salvation to you. See yourself as bound, and bars become your |

| W2:WIW.2 | thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely. Now mistakes | become quite possible, for certainty has gone. |
| W2:WIW.4 | sight was made to lead away from truth, it can be redirected. Sounds | become the call of God. And all perception can be given a new purpose |
| W2:WIS.4 | sin perceives is but a childish game. The Son of God may play he has | become a body, prey to evil and to guilt, with but a little life that |
| W2:269.1 | blessing on my sight today. It is the means which You have chosen to | become the way to show me my mistakes and look beyond them. It is |
| W2:276.1 | Word of God? “My Son is pure and holy as Myself.” And thus did God | become the Father of the Son He loves, for thus was he created. This |
| W2:318.2 | Atonement for myself. For thus does what is thereby reconciled in me | become as surely reconciled to You. |
| W2:WIE.2 | in separation from the Infinite. In its insanity it thinks it has | become a victor over God Himself, and in its terrible autonomy, it |
| W2:356.1 | he is, what seems to be his problem, nor what he believes he has | become. He is Your Son, and You will answer him. The miracle reflects |
| M:I.5 | not perfect or they would not be here. Yet it is their mission to | become perfect here, and so they teach perfection over and over in |
| M:1.1 | an agreement with God even if he does not yet believe in Him. He has | become a bringer of salvation. He has become a teacher of God. |
| M:1.1 | not yet believe in Him. He has become a bringer of salvation. He has | become a teacher of God. |
| M:1.3 | does not matter who the teacher was before he heard the Call. He has | become a savior by his answering. He has seen someone else as |
| M:3.2 | not scold the child for bumping into him; perhaps the students will | become friends. Even at the level of the most casual encounter, it is |
| M:3.4 | someday meet again, for it is the destiny of all relationships to | become holy. God is not mistaken in His Son. |
| M:3.5 | and can be learned. And if they decide to learn that lesson, they | become the saviors of the teachers who falter and may even seem to |
| M:4.1 | relationship toward which the teaching-learning situation is geared, | become characteristic of all teachers of God who have advanced in |
| M:4.17 | Who created them. And does what God created need defense? No one can | become an advanced teacher of God until he fully understands that |
| M:5.8 | mind he has no function except to rejoice with them, for they have | become teachers of God with him. He has, however, a more specific |
| M:7.2 | is not love but fear and therefore hate. His position has thus | become untenable, for he is offering hate to one to whom he offered |
| M:7.6 | Conflict about what you are has entered your mind, and you have | become deceived about yourself. And you are deceived about yourself, |
| M:10.2 | or better, he has an illusion of giving up. He has actually merely | become more honest. Recognizing that judgment was always impossible |
| M:12.2 | Thus does the son of man | become the Son of God. It is not really a change; it is a change of |
| M:12.4 | purpose of the body. As they advance in their profession, they | become more and more certain that the body's function is but to let |
| M:12.5 | lesson is always this—that what you use the body for, it will | become to you. Use it for sin or for attack, which is the same as |
| M:16.2 | in his own way. Routines as such are dangerous because they easily | become gods in their own right, threatening the very goals for which |
| M:18.3 | its ears alone are thought to hear. Its little space and tiny breath | become the measure of reality. And truth becomes diminutive and |
| M:22.3 | salvation is impossible. What then is left to heal? The body has | become lord of the mind. How could the mind be returned to the Holy |
| M:23.2 | so. Temptation may recur to others, but never to this one. He has | become the risen Son of God. He has overcome death, because he has |
| M:23.2 | limit on his power, because it is the Power of God. So has his name | become the name of God, for he no longer sees himself as separate |
| M:23.5 | complete and flawless that he sees in it an image of his Father. You | become the symbol of his Father here on earth. To you he looks for |
| M:23.6 | would we teach the limitations we have laid on us. No one who has | become a true and dedicated teacher of God forgets his brothers. Yet |
| M:24.4 | finally accomplished, issues such as the validity of reincarnation | become meaningless. Until then they are likely to be merely |
| M:27.2 | not of love, because he has denied that life is real. Death has | become life's symbol. His world is now a battleground where |

| Tx:3.27 | a genuine viewpoint which is universal in its application that it | becomes wisdom. Innocent (or true) perception means that you never |
| Tx:3.56 | Once forgiveness has been accepted, prayer in the usual sense | becomes utterly meaningless. Essentially, a prayer for forgiveness is |
| Tx:3.58 | no judgments and there is nothing but perfect equality? Perception | becomes impossible. Truth can only be known. All of it is equally |
| Tx:4.6 | the idea to others to be their own. The idea does not lessen; it | becomes stronger. |
| Tx:4.32 | This means that equality is beyond its grasp and charity | becomes impossible. The ego never gives out of abundance, because it |

| Tx:4.71 | that the body is good enough to be its home. Here is where the mind | becomes actually dazed. Being told by the ego that it is really part |

| Tx:6.65 | as a means of communication and because communicating is sharing, it | becomes communion. You might argue that fear as well as love can be |
| Tx:7.71 | be used for attack, but in the service of the Holy Spirit, [the law | becomes as beneficent as all of the laws of God. Stated positively,] |

| Tx:8.40 | defeat and angered by it, the ego regards itself as rejected and | becomes retaliative. You are invulnerable to its retaliation, because |
| Tx:8.55 | this, you cannot use it for attack. In the service of uniting, it | becomes a beautiful lesson in communion, which has value until |
| Tx:8.56 | you will see the use to which you have put yours. If the body | becomes for you a means which you give to the Holy Spirit to use on |
| Tx:8.61 | Guided by the ego, it is. Guided by the Holy Spirit, it is not. It | becomes only a means by which the part of the mind you have separated |
| Tx:8.61 | beyond its distortions and return to the Soul. The ego's temple thus | becomes the temple of the Holy Spirit, where devotion to Him replaces |
| Tx:8.65 | If the body is brought under the purpose of the mind, the body | becomes whole, because the mind's purpose is one. Attack can only be |
| Tx:8.86 | its results. Thus, “hellfire” means “burning,” but raising the dead | becomes allegorical. Actually, it is particularly the references to |
| Tx:9.5 | over to the Holy Spirit, you must do this with his. Unless this | becomes the one way in which you handle all errors, you cannot |
| Tx:9.33 | them, you call upon in yourself. And as you call upon it in them, it | becomes real to you. God has but one Son, knowing them all as one. |
| Tx:9.48 | the presence of the grandeur of God the meaninglessness of the ego | becomes perfectly apparent. Though it does not understand this, the |
| Tx:9.90 | When you have experienced the protection of God, the making of idols | becomes inconceivable. There are no strange images in the Mind of |
| Tx:10.3 | you approach the center of His thought system, the clearer the light | becomes. The closer you come to [the foundation of] the ego's thought |
| Tx:10.3 | foundation of] the ego's thought system, the darker and more obscure | becomes the way. Yet even the little spark in your mind is enough to |
| Tx:10.17 | Healing thus | becomes a lesson in understanding, and the more you practice it, the |
| Tx:10.20 | you want Him. Think like Him ever so slightly, and the little spark | becomes a blazing light that fills your mind so that He becomes your |
| Tx:10.20 | little spark becomes a blazing light that fills your mind so that He | becomes your only Guest. Whenever you ask the ego to enter, you |
| Tx:10.43 | fear, for it cannot have any effects if its source is not true. Fear | becomes more obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the ego's |
| Tx:10.51 | have pursued quite diligently, has [only] brought you fear, and it | becomes difficult to maintain that fear is happiness. |
| Tx:10.55 | perceptions which it unifies on behalf of itself. This, then, | becomes the universe it perceives. And it is this universe which, in |
| Tx:10.55 | the universe it perceives. And it is this universe which, in turn, | becomes its demonstration of its own reality. |
| Tx:10.58 | Every brother you meet | becomes a witness for Christ or for the ego, depending on what you |
| Tx:11.1 | but to stimuli as you interpret them. Your interpretation thus | becomes the justification for the response. That is why analyzing the |
| Tx:11.12 | what fear conceals to clear-cut, unequivocal predominance, fear | becomes meaningless. You have denied its power to conceal love, which |
| Tx:11.14 | they could not be sick. The task of the miracle-worker thus | becomes to deny the denial of truth. The sick must heal themselves, |
| Tx:11.47 | provided by a Teacher Who can transcend your limited resources. He | becomes your resource because, of yourself, you cannot learn. The |
| Tx:11.59 | of your training under the Holy Spirit's guidance increases and | becomes generalized. Gradually you learn to apply it to everyone and |
| Tx:11.60 | of knowledge. At the altar of God, the holy perception of God's Son | becomes so enlightened that light streams into it, and the Spirit of |
| Tx:11.60 | it, and the Spirit of God's Son shines in the Mind of the Father and | becomes one with it. Very gently does God shine upon Himself, loving |
| Tx:11.64 | are His witnesses and speak for His Presence. What you cannot see | becomes real to you only through the witnesses who speak for it. For |
| Tx:11.64 | see, and it can become compellingly real to you as its presence | becomes manifest through you. Do the Holy Spirit's work, for you |
| Tx:12.23 | with you, as its reasoning goes, it offers you oblivion. When it | becomes overtly savage, it offers you hell. |
| Tx:12.26 | By the notion of paying for the past in the future, the past | becomes the determiner of the future, making them continuous without |
| Tx:13.2 | The very real difference between perception and knowledge | becomes quite apparent if you consider this: There is nothing partial |
| Tx:13.80 | of what God knows about you, and in this light, error of any kind | becomes impossible. Why would you struggle so frantically to |
| Tx:13.88 | and restore what always was to your unforgiving mind. Atonement | becomes real and visible to them that use it. On earth this is your |
| Tx:14.12 | Peace, then, be unto everyone who | becomes a teacher of peace. For peace is the acknowledgment of |
| Tx:14.14 | cannot crucify nor suffer crucifixion. The temple you restore | becomes your altar, for it was rebuilt through you. And everything |
| Tx:14.24 | Yet the perception must be without deceit, for otherwise it | becomes the messenger of ignorance rather than a helper in the search |
| Tx:14.25 | recognized or unrecognized, real or false to you. If you hide it, it | becomes unreal to you because you hid it and surrounded it with fear. |
| Tx:14.25 | look at fear, the less you see it, and the clearer what it conceals | becomes. |
| Tx:14.27 | keep them both alive and equal in their reality. Their joining thus | becomes the source of fear, for if they meet, acceptance must be |
| Tx:14.47 | shared and not reflected. By sharing its reflection here, its truth | becomes the only perception the Son of God accepts. And thus, |
| Tx:14.57 | We have already learned that this identity is shared. The miracle | becomes the means of sharing it. By supplying your identity wherever |
| Tx:14.61 | be seen, for it is nothing more than a condition in which seeing | becomes impossible. You who have not yet brought all of the darkness |
| Tx:15.8 | is nothing but a teaching device for compounding guilt until it | becomes all-encompassing and demands vengeance forever. |
| Tx:15.45 | past, for past experience is the basis on which you judge. Judgment | becomes impossible without the past, for without it you do not |
| Tx:15.48 | which points to truth. Under His teaching, every relationship | becomes a lesson in love. |
| Tx:15.54 | instant, the Sonship gains as one. And united in your blessing, it | becomes one to you. The meaning of love is the meaning God gave to |
| Tx:15.60 | holding it within itself, there was no loss. The holy instant thus | becomes a lesson in how to hold all of your brothers in your mind, |
| Tx:15.70 | the ego makes is based on the idea that by sacrificing itself, it | becomes bigger. The “sacrifice,” which it regards as purification, is |
| Tx:15.71 | other accept the guilt and sacrifice himself as well. Forgiveness | becomes impossible, for the ego believes that to forgive another is |
| Tx:15.75 | are together your minds remain your own. The union of bodies thus | becomes the way in which you would keep minds apart. For bodies |
| Tx:15.91 | no limits on your union with Him.] The reality of this relationship | becomes the only truth that you could ever want. All truth is here. |
| Tx:15.105 | justified. And as long as you would retain the deprivation, attack | becomes salvation, and sacrifice becomes love. |
| Tx:15.105 | retain the deprivation, attack becomes salvation, and sacrifice | becomes love. |
| Tx:16.32 | of love. If the illusion goes, the relationship is broken or | becomes unsatisfying on the grounds of disillusionment. |
| Tx:16.60 | closer you look at the special relationship, the more apparent it | becomes that it must foster guilt and therefore must imprison. |
| Tx:16.70 | and deprivations all enter into the special relationship, which | becomes a way in which you seek to restore your wounded self-esteem. |
| Tx:16.74 | in yourself. You have denied that it is there, and the relationship | becomes your substitute for it. And vengeance becomes your substitute |
| Tx:16.74 | and the relationship becomes your substitute for it. And vengeance | becomes your substitute for Atonement, and the escape from vengeance |
| Tx:16.74 | becomes your substitute for Atonement, and the escape from vengeance | becomes your loss. |
| Tx:17.12 | twisted your perception and fixed it on the past. The smallest leaf | becomes a thing of wonder and a blade of grass a sign of God's |
| Tx:17.18 | that enters into the unholy relationship, the less satisfying it | becomes. And the more the fantasies can encompass, the greater the |
| Tx:17.19 | The “ideal” of the unholy relationship thus | becomes one in which the reality of the other does not enter at all |
| Tx:17.19 | dream. And the less the other really brings to it, the “better” it | becomes. Thus, the attempt at union becomes a way of excluding even |
| Tx:17.19 | brings to it, the “better” it becomes. Thus, the attempt at union | becomes a way of excluding even the one with whom the union was |
| Tx:17.39 | seems to shine in darkness from the frame is exposed to light, it | becomes dull and lifeless and ceases to distract you from the |
| Tx:17.44 | accomplishment. In all its aspects, as it begins, develops, and | becomes accomplished, it represents the reversal of the unholy |
| Tx:17.46 | The temptation of the ego | becomes extremely intense with this shift in goals. For the |
| Tx:17.58 | the outcome. In the ego's procedure, this is reversed. The situation | becomes the determiner of the outcome, which can be anything. The |
| Tx:17.60 | to the Holy Spirit's sorting out of truth and falsity. The true | becomes what can be used to meet the goal. The false becomes the |
| Tx:17.60 | The true becomes what can be used to meet the goal. The false | becomes the useless from this point of view. The situation now has |
| Tx:17.66 | an error in your thoughts about the situation, which then | becomes the justification for your lack of faith. You will make this |
| Tx:17.76 | been demonstrated has called for faith and has been given it. Now it | becomes a fact from which faith can no longer be withheld. The strain |
| Tx:18.15 | because the fact that reality is so outrageously violated in them | becomes apparent. Yet they are a way of looking at the world and |
| Tx:18.59 | and something else in which your mind enlarges to encompass it. It | becomes part of you as you unite with it. And both become whole as |
| Tx:18.73 | illusion, holding itself apart against the universe. The sun | becomes the sunbeam's “enemy” which would devour it, and the ocean |
| Tx:18.79 | the barren ground. See how life springs up everywhere! The desert | becomes a garden, green and deep and quiet, offering rest to those |
| Tx:19.2 | Every situation properly perceived | becomes an opportunity to heal the Son of God. And he is healed |
| Tx:19.3 | as separated from the Universal Purpose. When this occurs, the body | becomes its weapon used against this Purpose to demonstrate the |
| Tx:19.3 | demonstrate the “fact” that separation has occurred. The body thus | becomes the instrument of illusion, acting accordingly; seeing what |
| Tx:19.4 | a body, you have established a condition in which uniting with him | becomes impossible. Your faithlessness to him has separated you from |
| Tx:19.34 | perception, the mind corrects it when it seems to be seen, and it | becomes invisible. And errors are quickly recognized and quickly |
| Tx:19.72 | then, is the attraction of pain. Ruled by this perception, the body | becomes the servant of pain, seeking it dutifully and obeying the |
| Tx:20.1 | peace, not pain. A slain Christ has no meaning. But a risen Christ | becomes the symbol of the Son of God's forgiveness of himself; the |
| Tx:20.23 | and so meaningless it slips unnoticed through the universe of truth, | becomes your guide. To it you turn to ask the meaning of the |
| Tx:20.72 | in unadjusted form and suited perfectly to meet it. Destructiveness | becomes benign, and sin is turned to blessing under His gentle gaze. |
| Tx:21.25 | When vision is denied, confusion of cause and effect | becomes inevitable. The purpose now becomes to keep obscure the cause |
| Tx:21.25 | confusion of cause and effect becomes inevitable. The purpose now | becomes to keep obscure the cause of the effect and make effect |
| Tx:21.72 | no reason in them. A flower turns into a poisoned spear, a child | becomes a giant, and a mouse roars like a lion. And love is turned to |
| Tx:21.82 | for constancy in your desire to see the real world, so the desire | becomes the only one you have. By answering the final question “yes,” |
| Tx:22.4 | sense of differences so that the sameness that lies beneath them all | becomes apparent. Here is the golden circle where you recognize the |
| Tx:23.2 | How strange indeed | becomes this war against yourself! You will believe that everything |
| Tx:23.17 | altar disappears, the light grows dim, the temple of the Holy One | becomes a house of sin. And nothing is remembered except illusions. |
| Tx:23.22 | the Son of God can make mistakes for which his own destruction | becomes inevitable. |
| Tx:23.23 | aspects of the Son meet only to conflict but not to join. One | becomes weak, the other strong by his defeat. And fear of God and of |
| Tx:23.25 | See how the fear of God is reinforced by this third principle. Now it | becomes impossible to turn to Him for help in misery. For now He has |
| Tx:23.26 | There can be no release and no escape. Atonement thus | becomes a myth, and vengeance, not forgiveness, is the Will of God. |
| Tx:23.27 | is the belief you have what you have taken. By this, another's loss | becomes your gain, and thus it fails to recognize that you can never |
| Tx:24.10 | wish to separate arises here. For here the purpose which you share | becomes obscured from both of you. You would oppose this course |
| Tx:24.34 | yourself. Faith is invested in yourself alone. Everything else | becomes your enemy—feared and attacked, deadly and dangerous, hated |
| Tx:24.48 | the way that He must go to find Himself complete. His quietness | becomes your certainty. And where is doubt when certainty has come? |
| Tx:25.19 | you to look upon. His sinlessness but pictures yours. His gentleness | becomes your strength, and both will gladly look within and see the |
| Tx:25.31 | choice your future? For you make it now, the instant when all time | becomes a means to reach a goal. Make then your choice. But recognize |
| Tx:25.80 | When anyone is seen as losing, he has been condemned. And punishment | becomes his due instead of justice. |
| Tx:25.86 | for yourself. The miracle that you receive, you give. Each one | becomes an illustration of the law on which salvation rests—that |
| Tx:26.3 | The little that the body fences off | becomes the self, preserved through sacrifice of all the rest. And |
| Tx:26.3 | the body's loss would be a sacrifice indeed. For sight of bodies | becomes the sign that sacrifice is limited and something still |
| Tx:26.25 | and still believes that he has much to be forgiven. Forgiveness thus | becomes the means by which he learns he has done nothing to forgive. |
| Tx:26.52 | creation be subjected to the laws of two opposing powers until God | becomes impatient, splits the world apart, and relegates attack unto |
| Tx:26.82 | resting-place as well as yours. What hatred has released to love | becomes the brightest light in Heaven's radiance. And all the lights |
| Tx:27.3 | no pain and no reproach at all. And what was martyred to his guilt | becomes the perfect witness to his innocence. |
| Tx:27.9 | perceived as neutral and without a goal inherent in itself. For it | becomes the symbol of reproach, the sign of guilt whose consequences |
| Tx:27.32 | an unused interval of time not seen as spent and fully occupied, | becomes a silent invitation to the truth to enter and to make itself |
| Tx:27.50 | despite their different forms. All learning aims at transfer, which | becomes complete within two situations which are seen as one, for |
| Tx:27.69 | No one can waken from a dream the world is dreaming for him. He | becomes a part of someone else's dream. He cannot choose to waken |
| Tx:28.23 | and cause are first split off and then reversed, so that effect | becomes a cause; the cause, effect. |
| Tx:28.48 | Where one appears, the other disappears. And which you share | becomes the only one you have. You have the one which you accept, |
| Tx:29.17 | For it asks that God be less than all He really is. What, then, | becomes of you, for it is you of whom the sacrifice is asked? For He |
| Tx:29.17 | and He is lessened by the loss of you. And what is gone from Him | becomes your god, protecting you from being part of Him. |
| Tx:29.22 | brother's dreams. So perfectly can you forgive him his illusions, he | becomes your savior from your dreams. And as you see him shining in |
| Tx:29.25 | They are dreams because they are not true. Their equal lack of truth | becomes the basis for the miracle, which means that you have |
| Tx:29.29 | that they seem to be what they are for. A shadow figure who attacks | becomes a brother giving you a chance to help if this becomes the |
| Tx:29.29 | who attacks becomes a brother giving you a chance to help if this | becomes the function of the dream. And dreams of sadness thus are |
| Tx:29.30 | given Him. Because He loves the dreamer not the dream, each dream | becomes an offering of love. For at its center is His love for you, |
| Tx:29.50 | which you must protect against the light of truth. And all the world | becomes the means by which this idol can be saved. Salvation thus |
| Tx:29.65 | his thoughts and gives them to the toys instead. And their reality | becomes his own because they seem to save him from his thoughts. Yet |
| Tx:29.66 | more. The dream of judgment is a children's game in which the child | becomes the father, powerful, but with the little wisdom of a child. |
| Tx:30.1 | The new beginning now | becomes the focus of the curriculum. The goal is clear, but now you |
| Tx:30.57 | to be forgiveness. Fear is not its goal, and the escape from guilt | becomes its aim. The value of forgiveness is perceived and takes the |
| Tx:30.58 | the means by which it can be gained can now be understood. The world | becomes a place of hope because its only purpose is to be a place |
| Tx:30.92 | gifts upon God's Son. When he is tempted, he denies reality. And he | becomes the willing slave of what he chose instead. |
| Tx:31.11 | want? It is the recognition that it is a state of mind unwanted that | becomes the means whereby the choice is reassessed; another outcome |
| Tx:31.15 | roles, forever split between the two. And every friend or enemy | becomes a means to help you save yourself from this. |
| Tx:31.26 | become a habit of response so typical of everything you do that it | becomes your first response to all temptation and to every situation |
| Tx:31.68 | “bad” must lurk behind. This concept emphasizes treachery, and trust | becomes impossible. Nor could it change while you perceive the “bad” |
| W1:3.1 | ones, without making distinctions of any kind. Whatever you see | becomes a proper subject for applying the idea. Be sure that you do |
| W1:5.1 | true. However, until you learn that form does not matter, each form | becomes a proper subject for the exercises for the day. Applying the |
| W1:22.1 | at him. His own attack is thus perceived as self defense. This | becomes an increasingly vicious circle until he is willing to change |
| W1:39.10 | is very difficult at first. It will become much easier as your mind | becomes more disciplined and less distractible. |
| W1:43.2 | Holy Spirit give it a meaning very close to God's. Healed perception | becomes the means by which the Son of God forgives his brother and |
| W1:64.2 | your sins. In this perception, the physical appearance of temptation | becomes the spiritual recognition of salvation. |
| W1:64.4 | your function is to be happy by using the means by which happiness | becomes inevitable. |
| W1:84.5 | I am attacking love and therefore attacking my Self. My Self thus | becomes alien to me. I am determined not to attack my Self today, so |
| W1:91.13 | will see miracles because Their strength is yours. Their strength | becomes your eyes that you may see. |
| W1:97.4 | still; the miracle in which a minute spent in using these ideas | becomes a time which has no length and which has no end. Give, then, |
| W1:99.2 | illusions both are equal now, for both have happened. The impossible | becomes the thing you need forgiveness for, salvation from. Salvation |
| W1:103.6 | welcome all the happiness it brings, as truth replaces fear, and joy | becomes what you expect to take the place of pain. God being Love, it |
| W1:106.10 | the world from thinking giving is a way to lose. And so the world | becomes ready to understand and to receive. |
| W1:122.10 | hopefulness, for we have reached the turning point at which the road | becomes far easier. And now the way is short that yet we travel. We |
| W1:134.8 | illusions as illusions, not as truth. It is because of this that it | becomes the undeceiver in the face of lies, the great restorer of the |
| W1:134.14 | would meet with our reality in freedom and in peace. Our practicing | becomes the footsteps lightening up the way for all our brothers, who |
| W1:135.9 | defense, need merely be perceived as quite apart from you, and it | becomes a healthy, serviceable instrument through which the mind can |
| W1:135.16 | it will be provided for unless it makes its own provisions. Time | becomes a future emphasis to be controlled by learning and experience |
| W1:135.17 | is thus refusing to allow for change. What it has learned before | becomes the basis for its future goals. Its past experience directs |
| W1:135.20 | trace of sorrow and with joy which constantly increases as this life | becomes a holy instant, set in time but heeding only immortality. Let |
| W1:135.20 | no defenses but your present trust direct the future, and this life | becomes a meaningful encounter with the truth that only your defenses |
| W1:137.1 | Sickness is a retreat from others and a shutting off of joining. It | becomes a door that closes on a separate self and keeps it isolated |
| W1:137.6 | think not healing is unworthy of your function here. For anti-Christ | becomes more powerful than Christ to those who dream the world is |
| W1:137.6 | body seems to be more solid and more stable than the mind. And love | becomes a dream, while fear remains the one reality that can be seen |
| W1:137.10 | His life | becomes your own as you extend the little help He asks in freeing you |
| W1:137.11 | to God does not exist. And who accepts it not within his mind | becomes a haven where the weary can remain to rest. For here is truth |
| W1:139.3 | states that he is not himself and therefore, being something else, | becomes a questioner of what that something is. |
| W1:139.4 | that he does not know the only certainty by which he lives. Thus he | becomes uncertain of his life, for what it is has been denied by him. |
| W1:153.6 | attack is folly or a silly game a tired child might play when he | becomes too sleepy to remember what he wants. |
| W1:153.15 | attention to the daily thought as long as possible. Five minutes now | becomes the least we give to preparation for a day in which salvation |
| W1:154.3 | is related to it. God has joined His Son in this, and thus His Son | becomes His messenger of unity with Him. |
| W1:154.4 | guilt abolished in the mind that God created sinless. Now this mind | becomes aware again of Who created it and of His lasting union with |
| W1:157.5 | you. For your experience today will so transform your mind that it | becomes the touchstone for the holy thoughts of God. |
| W1:157.7 | but this become of little worth, the world to which you will return | becomes a little closer to the end of time, a little more like Heaven |
| W1:159.7 | new again but in a different light. What was to be the home of sin | becomes the center of redemption and the hearth of mercy where the |
| W1:164.6 | the world, looks back on them in a new light. And what you see | becomes the healing and salvation of the world. The valuable and |
| W1:164.7 | given us from judgment made beyond the world. Our practicing today | becomes our gift of thankfulness for our release from blindness and |
| W1:166.8 | at this perception of yourself. Where is self-pity then? And what | becomes of all the tragedy you sought to make for him whom God |
| W1:166.12 | of all the gifts that God has given you. He speaks as well of what | becomes your will when you accept these gifts and recognize they are |
| W1:166.14 | What you fear but teaches them their fears are justified. Your hand | becomes the giver of Christ's touch; your change of mind becomes the |
| W1:166.14 | Your hand becomes the giver of Christ's touch; your change of mind | becomes the proof that who accepts God's gifts can never suffer |
| W1:166.15 | to you. Be witness in your happiness to how transformed the mind | becomes which chooses to accept His gifts and feel the touch of |
| W1:167.12 | what is reflected there. And now it is no more a mere reflection. It | becomes the thing reflected and the light which makes reflection |
| W1:169.1 | come until the mind prepares itself for true acceptance. Grace | becomes inevitable instantly in those who have prepared a table where |
| W1:170.6 | Next are the attributes of love bestowed upon its “enemy.” For fear | becomes your safety and protector of your peace, to which you turn |
| W1:170.11 | in fear's “enemy,” its cruelty as now a part of love. And what | becomes more fearful than the heart of Love Itself? The blood appears |
| W1:181.9 | are the eyes of Christ inevitably ours. And the love He feels for us | becomes our own as well. This will become the only thing we see |
| W1:181.10 | The world which once proclaimed our sins | becomes the proof that we are sinless. And our love for everyone we |
| W1:183.4 | of God and little names have lost their meaning. No temptation but | becomes a nameless and unwanted thing before God's Name. Repeat His |
| W1:183.7 | beginning, when we say today's idea but once. And then God's Name | becomes our only thought, our only word, the only thing that occupies |
| W1:183.11 | he made be nameless now, and in their place the holy Name of God | becomes his judgment of their worthlessness. |
| W1:184.1 | by symbols. You have made up names for everything you see. Each one | becomes a separate entity, identified by its own name. By this you |
| W1:184.3 | What are these names by which the world | becomes a series of discrete events, of things un-unified, of bodies |
| W1:184.10 | you need are intervals each day in which the learning of the world | becomes a transitory phase—a prison house from which you go into |
| W1:184.12 | God has no name. And yet His Name | becomes the final lesson that all things are one, and at this single |
| W1:185.3 | Two minds with one intent become so strong that what they will | becomes the Will of God. For minds can only join in truth. In dreams |
| W1:189.10 | which is our own as well, be done in us and in the world, that it | becomes a part of Heaven now. Amen. |
| W1:190.5 | accept your holy will as theirs. And what was seen as fearful now | becomes a source of innocence and holiness. |
| W1:190.8 | over love and time replace eternity and Heaven. And the world | becomes a cruel and a bitter place, where sorrow rules and little |
| W1:192.5 | think that it will die nor be the prey of merciless attack. Anger | becomes impossible, and where is terror then? What fears could still |
| W1:193.10 | words when we are tempted to believe that pain is real and death | becomes our choice instead of life? Shall we not learn to say these |
| W1:194.2 | the door to freedom on it. You are saved, and your salvation thus | becomes the gift you give the world because you have received. |
| W1:194.5 | freed from its bequest of grief and misery, of pain and loss, | becomes the instant in which time escapes the bondage of illusions |
| W1:194.6 | much consistent effort as you can to make it be a part of you. As it | becomes a thought which rules your mind, a habit in your |
| W1:195.9 | about without a thought or care for us or for our future. Gratitude | becomes the single thought we substitute for these insane |
| W1:199.4 | body will appear as useful form for what the mind must do. It thus | becomes a vehicle which helps forgiveness be extended to the |
| W1:199.6 | what they have sought. The body's purpose now is unambiguous. And it | becomes perfect in the ability to serve an undivided goal. In |
| W1:213.1 | to me in place of thoughts I made that hurt me. What I learn of Him | becomes the way I am set free. And so I choose to learn His lessons |
| W2:249.1 | Forgiveness paints a picture of a world where suffering is over, loss | becomes impossible, and anger makes no sense. Attack is gone, and |
| W2:249.1 | suffering is now conceivable? What loss can be sustained? The world | becomes a place of joy, abundance, charity, and endless giving. It is |
| W2:264.1 | every hand that reaches for my own. In You time disappears and place | becomes a meaningless belief. For what surrounds Your Son and keeps |
| W2:WIHS.2 | as the Holy Spirit guides it to the outcome He perceives for it, | becomes the means to go beyond itself, to be replaced by the Eternal |
| W2:296.2 | today what we would learn and that alone. And so our learning goal | becomes an unconflicted one and possible of easy reach and quick |
| W2:313.2 | me today. We save the world when we are joined. For in our vision it | becomes as holy as the light in us. |
| W2:315.1 | gift and takes it as its own. And everyone who finds the way to God | becomes my savior, pointing out the way to me and giving me his |
| W2:343.1 | You never take away. And You created me to be like You, so sacrifice | becomes impossible for me as well as You. I too must give, and so all |
| W2:350.1 | What we forgive | becomes a part of us as we perceive ourselves. The Son of God |
| M:I.4 | as they teach His lessons of joy and hope, their learning finally | becomes complete. |
| M:2.5 | share one interest and one goal. And thus he who was the learner | becomes a teacher of God himself, for he has made the one decision |
| M:4.10 | learning is consolidated. Now what was seen as merely shadows before | becomes solid gains, to be counted on in all “emergencies” as well as |
| M:4.15 | of gentleness, for it is in this that the function of salvation | becomes easy. To those who would do harm, it is impossible. To those |
| M:6.4 | by God. What concern, then, can a teacher of God have about what | becomes of his gifts? Given by God to God, who in this holy exchange |
| M:7.6 | result of conflicting wishes. Be sure of what you want, and doubt | becomes impossible. |
| M:9.2 | His answer, and it is this he follows as his guide for action. This | becomes easier and easier as the teacher of God learns to give up his |
| M:12.1 | learning is complete suffices. This One, sanctified and redeemed, | becomes the Self Who is the Son of God. He who was always wholly |
| M:12.3 | Which gave them. They need a medium through which communication | becomes possible to those who do not realize that they are spirit. A |
| M:12.5 | it to bring the Word of God to those who have it not, and the body | becomes holy. Because it is holy it cannot be sick, nor can it die. |
| M:13.3 | Once this confusion has occurred, it | becomes impossible for the mind to understand that all the |
| M:14.2 | Until forgiveness is complete, the world does have a purpose. It | becomes the home in which forgiveness is born and where it grows and |
| M:14.2 | becomes the home in which forgiveness is born and where it grows and | becomes stronger and more all embracing. Here is it nourished, for |
| M:16.3 | although it remains important throughout the learning process, | becomes less and less emphasized. At the outset, we can safely say |
| M:16.3 | practice periods which the workbook contains, individual need | becomes the chief consideration. |
| M:17.1 | magic seem quite real to both of them. How to deal with magic thus | becomes a major lesson for the teacher of God to master. His first |
| M:17.5 | reaction means, and its centrality in the world's thought system | becomes apparent. A magic thought, by its mere presence, acknowledges |
| M:17.9 | In truth it has no power to make anything. Like the magic which | becomes its servant, it neither attacks nor protects. To see it and |
| M:18.3 | space and tiny breath become the measure of reality. And truth | becomes diminutive and meaningless. Correction has one answer to all |
| M:18.5 | In order to heal, it thus | becomes essential for the teacher of God to let all his own mistakes |
| M:18.5 | of errors. When this has been accomplished, the teacher of God | becomes a miracle worker by definition. His sins have been forgiven |
| M:19.2 | It is, however, the one interpretation that leads to truth. This | becomes possible because, while it is not true in itself, justice |
| M:19.2 | is but the first small step in the direction of the other. The path | becomes quite different as one goes along. Nor could all the |
| M:19.5 | does it judge, and this alone. Here all attack and condemnation | becomes meaningless and indefensible. Perception rests, the mind is |
| M:21.3 | what does not exist or seeks for illusions in his heart, all this | becomes his own. The power of his decision offers it to him, as he |
| M:22.5 | it is because he has forgotten Who he is. Another's sickness thus | becomes his own. In allowing this to happen, he has identified with |
| M:23.4 | as a replacement for the many names of all the gods you pray to. It | becomes the shining symbol for the Word of God, so close to what it |
| M:23.4 | for all the gifts that God has given you. And gratitude to God | becomes the way in which He is remembered, for love cannot be far |
| M:27.5 | the perception of the real world and that of the world of illusions | becomes more sharply evident. Death is indeed the death of God if He |
| M:27.7 | to die has but been misperceived and carried to illusion. Now it | becomes your task to let the illusion be brought to the truth. Be |

| Tx:1.97 | The power and strength of man's creative will must be understood | before the real meaning of denial can be appreciated and |
| Tx:2.4 | also an overly literal figure. These concepts need to be clarified | before the real meaning of the separation, or the “detour into fear,” |
| Tx:2.11 | of what actually occurred in the separation. None of this existed | before, nor does it actually exist now. The world was made as “a |

| Tx:2.38 | The Atonement actually began long | before the crucifixion. Many Souls offered their efforts on behalf of |

| Tx:2.60 | Before miracle workers are ready to undertake their function in this | |
| Tx:2.67 | is because man is afraid of what his Spiritual eye will see. We said | before that the Spiritual eye cannot see error and is capable only of |
| Tx:2.69 | to himself. Healing is an ability lent to man after the separation, | before which it was completely unnecessary. Like all aspects of the |
| Tx:2.71 | the human limitations, though toward its higher levels. We said | before that only revelation transcends time. The miracle, as an |

| Tx:3.11 | There is another point which must be perfectly clear | before any residual fear which may still be associated with miracles |
| Tx:3.30 | cognition is because you must get your perceptions straightened out | before you can know anything. To know is to be certain. Uncertainty |
| Tx:3.31 | or God. To recognize means to “know again,” implying that you knew | before. You can see in many ways, because perception involves |

| Tx:3.61 | which perception, but not cognition, rests. We have discussed this | before in terms of the selectivity of perception, pointing out that |
| Tx:3.74 | as beyond his control. We have discussed the fall, or separation, | before, but its meaning must be clearly understood without symbols. |

| Tx:4.35 | with physical birth, because no one maintains that the ego existed | before that point in time. The religiously ego-oriented believe that |
| Tx:4.35 | in time. The religiously ego-oriented believe that the Soul existed | before and will continue to exist afterwards, after a temporary lapse |

| Tx:4.57 | by changing your behavior, but we have also said, and many times | before, that you can change your mind. When your mood tells you that |

| Tx:5.61 | of God detach itself without believing it is attacking Him? We spoke | before of the authority problem as involving the concept of usurping |
| Tx:5.63 | the mind, as God created it, is capable of creating reality. We said | before that you must learn to think with God. To think with Him is to |

| Tx:5.70 | possible reason for continuing guilt feelings. We have said this | before, but we did not emphasize the destructive results of this |
| Tx:5.73 | until the first one was made, and speaking itself was unnecessary | before the ego was made. |
| Tx:5.79 | to share the light with you. Remember the symbolic reference we made | before to the ego's dark glass, and remember also that we said, “Do |
| Tx:5.93 | to work out the plan of salvation yourselves because, as I told you | before, the remedy is not of your making. God Himself gave you the |
| Tx:6.4 | let us consider the crucifixion again. We have not dwelt on it | before because of its fearful connotations. The only emphasis we laid |
| Tx:6.5 | anyone who understands it. While we emphasized only the resurrection | before, the purpose of the crucifixion and how it actually led to the |
| Tx:6.9 | We have said | before, “As you teach, so shall you learn.” If you react as if you |
| Tx:6.25 | are synonymous, as are separation and dissociation. We have said | before that the separation was and is dissociation and also that, |
| Tx:6.39 | above all, projecting and being. This is because, as we have said | before, every idea begins in the mind of the thinker and extends |
| Tx:6.41 | denied this, you made what you are something you must learn. We said | before that the message of the crucifixion was, “Teach only love, for |
| Tx:6.76 | which was made irrevocably for you. That is why we suggested | before that there was help in reminding yourselves to allow the Holy |
| Tx:6.82 | since your salvation is critical to the whole Sonship. We said | before that the Holy Spirit is evaluative and must be. Yet His |
| Tx:7.13 | that exists among different or separate people. When we spoke | before of the extremely personal nature of revelation, we followed |
| Tx:7.17 | That is why the Holy Spirit is a lesson in remembering. We said | before that He teaches remembering and forgetting, but the forgetting |
| Tx:7.27 | to peace. The ego's “enemy” is therefore your friend. We said | before that the ego's friend is not part of you, since the ego |
| Tx:7.34 | the laws of God and forgetting the laws of the ego. We said | before that forgetting is merely a way of remembering better. It is |
| Tx:7.60 | which they engender by perceiving conflict as meaningless. We said | before that the Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is, |
| Tx:7.83 | mind is life. The ego's use of projection must be fully understood | before its inevitable association between projection and anger can be |
| Tx:7.105 | We said | before that you are the Will of God. His Will is not an idle wish, |
| Tx:7.112 | you do not know your brothers, who created them with you. We said | before that only the whole Sonship is worthy to be co-creator with |
| Tx:8.7 | The total senselessness of such a curriculum must be fully recognized | before a real change in direction becomes possible. You cannot learn |
| Tx:8.12 | We said | before that the Holy Spirit teaches you the difference between pain |
| Tx:8.41 | and reach beyond all attempts of the ego to hold you back. I go | before you, because I am beyond the ego. Reach therefore for my hand, |
| Tx:9.44 | We said | before that the ego does not know what a real question is. Lack of |
| Tx:9.49 | attack. It is a delusional attempt to outdo but not to undo. We said | before that the ego vacillates between suspiciousness and |
| Tx:9.81 | freedom from all illusions because you heard. But have no other gods | before Him, or you will not hear. God is not jealous of the gods you |
| Tx:9.82 | with Him, because reality is not divided. To accept other gods | before Him is to place other images before yourself. |
| Tx:9.82 | divided. To accept other gods before Him is to place other images | before yourself. |
| Tx:9.84 | you to return, and He will be heard when you place no other gods | before Him. You can give up the god of sickness for your brothers; in |
| Tx:9.85 | perfect. If you believe you can be sick, you have placed other gods | before Him. God is not at war with the god of sickness you made, but |
| Tx:9.96 | Son is helpless without the Father, Who alone is his help. We said | before that of yourselves you can do nothing, but you are not of |

| Tx:10.69 | To perceive anew is merely to perceive again, implying that | before, or in the interval, you were not perceiving at all. What, |
| Tx:11.31 | you must realize that your hatred is in your mind and not outside it | before you can get rid of it and why you must get rid of it before |
| Tx:11.31 | it before you can get rid of it and why you must get rid of it | before you can perceive the world as it really is. |

| Tx:11.67 | We said | before that what you project is up to you, but it is not up to you |
| Tx:11.67 | is a law of mind. Perception is projection, and you look in | before you look out. As you look in you choose the guide for seeing, |

| Tx:13.34 | brightness so intense that none of us alone can even think on it. | Before the glorious radiance of the Kingdom, guilt melts away and, |

| Tx:13.60 | for when you look at it in simple honesty, it is undone. We said | before, “Be not content with nothing,” for you have believed that |
| Tx:13.61 | is true and built on truth. The universe of learning will open up | before you in all its gracious simplicity. With truth before you, you |
| Tx:13.61 | will open up before you in all its gracious simplicity. With truth | before you, you will not look back. |
| Tx:13.88 | truth in your most holy mind be undone for you and stand in grace | before your Father, He will give Himself to you as He has always |
| Tx:13.89 | here? You need not understand creation to do what must be done | before that knowledge would be meaningful to you. God breaks no |
| Tx:13.91 | Before you make any decisions for yourself, remember that you have | |
| Tx:14.35 | your recognition. They are joined in giving you the gift of oneness, | before which all separation vanishes. Unite with what you are. You |
| Tx:14.60 | by showing you only what you are now. Learning has been accomplished | before its effects are manifest. Learning is therefore in the past, |
| Tx:14.71 | your voice against Him. For He teaches the miracle of oneness, and | before His lesson division disappears. Teach like Him here, and you |
| Tx:15.4 | We have seen this strange paradox in the ego's thought system | before, but never so clearly as here. For the ego must seem to keep |
| Tx:15.17 | teaching is for you because His joy is yours. Through Him you stand | before God's altar, where He gently translates hell into Heaven. For |
| Tx:15.21 | Presence of what the universe bows to in appreciation and gladness? | Before the recognition of the universe which witnesses to It, your |
| Tx:15.26 | content with less than his Father has given him. We asked you once | before, “Would you be hostage to the ego or host to God?” Let this |
| Tx:15.30 | Love is not little, and love dwells in you, for you are host to Him. | Before the greatness that lives in you, your poor appreciation of |
| Tx:15.34 | it protects only the peace in which He dwells. Lay not littleness | before His holy altar, which rises above the stars and reaches even |
| Tx:15.37 | Be humble | before Him and yet great in Him. And value no plan of the ego before |
| Tx:15.37 | humble before Him and yet great in Him. And value no plan of the ego | before the plan of God. For you leave empty your place in His plan, |
| Tx:15.46 | and acquired methods for meeting them on your own terms. We said | before that to limit love to part of the Sonship is to bring guilt |
| Tx:15.68 | We said | before that the ego attempts to maintain and increase guilt, but in |
| Tx:16.21 | have taught through Him, have nothing in common with what you taught | before He came. And the results have been to bring peace where there |
| Tx:16.30 | the hate but not to let it go. Your salvation will rise clearly | before your open eyes as you look on this. You cannot limit hate. The |
| Tx:16.43 | attack on the self to make the other guilty. We have spoken of this | before, but there are some aspects of what is really being attempted |
| Tx:16.55 | nothing more than a meaningless attempt to raise other gods | before Him and by worshiping them to obscure their tininess and His |
| Tx:16.55 | you do not want this. For every idol which you raise to place | before Him stands before you in place of what you are. |
| Tx:16.55 | want this. For every idol which you raise to place before Him stands | before you in place of what you are. |
| Tx:16.65 | your minds so firmly on illusions. Delay will hurt you now more than | before only because you realize it is delay and that escape from pain |
| Tx:16.75 | of salvation, the Holy Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said | before that the Holy Spirit must teach through comparisons and uses |
| Tx:17.22 | All this you will do gladly if you but let Him hold the spark | before you to light your way and make it clear to you. God's Son is |
| Tx:17.77 | the strain of not responding to His call seems to be greater than | before. This is not so. Before, the strain was there but you |
| Tx:17.77 | to His call seems to be greater than before. This is not so. | Before, the strain was there but you attributed it to something else, |
| Tx:17.78 | the Son of God. His faithlessness did this to him. Think carefully | before you let yourself use faithlessness against him. For he is |
| Tx:18.14 | Yet think what this world is. It is clearly not the world you saw | before you slept. Rather, it is a distortion of the world, planned |
| Tx:18.20 | have used them to remain asleep. We once said that the first change, | before dreams disappear, is that your dreams of fear are changed to |
| Tx:18.27 | In your relationship is this world's light. And fear must disappear | before you now. Be tempted not to snatch away the gift of faith you |
| Tx:18.42 | mind. That is its function. Never attempt to overlook your guilt | before you ask the Holy Spirit's help. That is His function. Your |
| Tx:18.89 | you see the light behind it. And then you see it as a fragile veil | before the light. |
| Tx:18.90 | is like a bank of low dark clouds that seems to be a solid wall | before the sun. Its impenetrable appearance is wholly an illusion. It |
| Tx:18.95 | way. Where learning ends there God begins, for learning ends | before Him Who is complete where He begins and where there is no end. |
| Tx:18.97 | the course it took, lifted high above the darkness and gently placed | before the gates of Heaven. The holy instant in which you were united |
| Tx:19.1 | We said | before that when a situation has been dedicated wholly to truth, |
| Tx:19.10 | which you received. You do not use anything your brother has done | before to condemn him now. You freely choose to overlook his errors, |
| Tx:19.14 | In the holy instant, you stand | before the altar God has raised unto Himself and both of you. Lay |
| Tx:19.14 | the glad tidings that it was done to you who stand together | before the altar from which they were sent forth. |
| Tx:19.24 | it is far better to be sinful than mistaken. Yet think you carefully | before you allow yourself to make this choice. Approach it not |
| Tx:19.32 | what God created holy could not prevail against it nor remain itself | before the power of sin. Sin is perceived as mightier than God, |
| Tx:19.32 | before the power of sin. Sin is perceived as mightier than God, | before which God Himself must bow and offer His creation to its |
| Tx:19.33 | has been removed, and so it can be cherished but a little while | before it vanishes. Only the habit of looking for it still remains. |
| Tx:19.35 | faith to what you now can see. The barriers to heaven will disappear | before your holy sight, for you who were sightless have been given |
| Tx:19.38 | within must first expand and flow across the obstacles you placed | before it. This will you do, for nothing undertaken with the Holy |
| Tx:19.39 | thanks and gratitude which you have offered Him and lay them gently | before His Creator in the name of His most holy Son. And the Father |
| Tx:19.43 | messengers from you to all the world. And barriers will fall away | before their coming as easily as those which you would interpose will |
| Tx:19.46 | land and settle briefly upon anything, for it has no purpose now. | Before the Holy Spirit entered to abide with you, it seemed to have a |
| Tx:19.47 | makes its results appear to be more erratic and unpredictable than | before. Yet what could be more unstable than a tightly-organized |
| Tx:19.48 | How mighty can a little feather be | before the great wings of truth? Can it oppose an eagle's flight or |
| Tx:19.50 | losing none of them on pain of death and laying them respectfully | before their lord and master. Perception cannot obey two masters, |
| Tx:19.54 | but theirs, you will see fear no more. The world will be transformed | before your sight, cleansed of all guilt and softly brushed with |
| Tx:19.55 | Love, too, would set a feast | before you on a table covered with a spotless cloth, set in a quiet |
| Tx:19.55 | grace is said by everyone together as they join in gentleness | before the table of communion. And I will join you there, as long ago |
| Tx:19.64 | cannot be asked of you? There is no obstacle which you can place | before our union, for in your holy relationship, I am there already. |
| Tx:19.85 | by its orders, proof in his decay that God Himself is powerless | before the ego's might, unable to protect the life that He created |
| Tx:19.91 | The fourth obstacle to be surmounted hangs like a heavy veil | before the face of Christ. Yet as His face rises beyond it, shining |
| Tx:19.95 | And now you stand in terror | before what you swore never to look upon. Your eyes look down, |
| Tx:19.98 | the Atonement and learned illusions are not real. No one can stand | before this obstacle alone, for he could not have reached thus far |
| Tx:19.99 | realize its purpose is accomplished? Here, with the journey's end | before you, you see its purpose. And it is here you choose whether to |
| Tx:19.100 | you look upon each other with perfect faith and love and tenderness. | Before complete forgiveness, you still stand unforgiving. You are |
| Tx:19.105 | redemption is accomplished and received. Think who your brother is | before you would condemn him. And offer thanks to God that he is holy |
| Tx:20.15 | one another the freedom and the strength to lead you there. And come | before each other's holy altar where the strength and freedom wait, |
| Tx:20.16 | is a change; a shift in perception or a belief that what was so | before has been made different. Every adjustment is therefore a |
| Tx:20.19 | and frightened, hoping at most that death will wait a little longer | before it overtakes you and you disappear? You made this up. It is a |
| Tx:20.22 | will wander off. He came without a purpose, but he will not remain | before the shining light the Holy Spirit offered and you accepted. |
| Tx:20.35 | when, while you are in time, there is so much that must be done | before the way to peace is open. Perhaps this seems impossible to |
| Tx:20.36 | He will go | before you making straight your path and leaving in your way no |
| Tx:20.36 | will be denied you. Not one seeming difficulty but will melt away | before you reach it. You need take thought for nothing, careless of |
| Tx:20.41 | that runs through time like golden light is all the same—nothing | before it, nothing afterwards. |
| Tx:20.56 | the holy instant, offered him to replace the unholy one he chose | before. And here can he learn relationships are his salvation and not |
| Tx:20.58 | discrepancies of means and end and how these must be brought in line | before your holy relationship can bring you only joy. But we have |
| Tx:20.60 | They guarantee the goal, and they are perfectly in line with it. | Before we look at them a little closer, remember that if you think |
| Tx:20.63 | relationships with other bodies, serving the cause of sin an instant | before he dies. |
| Tx:20.69 | Be willing, then, to see your brother sinless that Christ may rise | before your vision and give you joy. And place no value on your |
| Tx:20.72 | Look through its eyes, and everything will stand condemned | before you. All that could save you, you will never see. Your holy |
| Tx:21.3 | go through the doors you thought were closed but which stand open | before unseeing eyes, waiting to welcome you. |
| Tx:21.4 | necessary to imagine what the world must look like. It must be seen | before you recognize it for what it is. You can be shown which doors |
| Tx:21.10 | into a great and shining circle. And all the circle fills with light | before your eyes. The edges of the circle disappear, and what is in |
| Tx:21.32 | them no longer. For faith and vision and belief are meaningful only | before the state of certainty is reached. In Heaven they are unknown. |
| Tx:22.24 | form of the same fundamental illusion we have seen many times | before. Only if it were possible the Son of God could leave his |
| Tx:22.38 | way or the other. For now if you go straight ahead, the way you went | before you reached the branch, you will go nowhere. The whole purpose |
| Tx:22.40 | And so you stand, here in this holy place, | before the veil of sin that hangs between you and the face of Christ. |
| Tx:22.40 | almost over in your awareness, and peace has reached you even here | before the veil. Think what will happen after! The love of Christ |
| Tx:22.43 | And so they learn that it is theirs forever. All barriers disappear | before their coming, as every obstacle was finally surmounted which |
| Tx:22.43 | was finally surmounted which seemed to rise and block their way | before. This veil you lift together opens the way to truth to more |
| Tx:22.44 | —to receive together and give as you received. Standing | before the veil, it still seems difficult. But hold out your joined |
| Tx:22.48 | How weak is fear—how little and how meaningless! How insignificant | before the quiet strength of those whom love has joined! This is your |
| Tx:22.53 | from means to end as easy as is the shift from hate to gratitude | before forgiving eyes. You will be sanctified by one another, using |
| Tx:22.55 | Before a holy relationship there is no sin. The form of error is no | |
| Tx:23.10 | “enemy” you fought as an intruder on your peace is here transformed | before your sight into the giver of your peace. Your “enemy” was God |
| Tx:23.32 | And if it is the truth, then must its opposite, which was the truth | before, be madness now. Such a reversal, completely turned around, |
| Tx:23.34 | is it unfamiliar; we have seen how it appears to function many times | before. In truth it does not function, yet in dreams, where only |
| Tx:23.44 | become impossible that you lose sight of it? It can be kept shining | before your vision, forever clear and never out of sight if you |
| Tx:24.15 | song of honor and of love for what you are seems silent and unheard | before its “mightiness.” You strain your ears to hear its soundless |
| Tx:24.27 | alone and unforgiven and yourself in sin beside him, both in misery | before the idol that can save you not. |
| Tx:24.37 | all illusions are “threatened” by the truth. They will not stand | before it. Yet what comfort has ever been in them that you would keep |
| Tx:24.43 | Yet think not that it looked upon your brother first, nor hated him | before it hated you. The sin its eyes behold in him and love to look |
| Tx:24.48 | There must be doubt | before there can be conflict. And every doubt must be about yourself. |
| Tx:24.48 | your hands are His. He is within you, yet He walks beside you and | before, leading the way that He must go to find Himself complete. His |
| Tx:24.49 | Before your brother's holiness the world is still and peace descends | |
| Tx:24.49 | offered you that all your doubts about yourself may disappear | before his holiness. See in him God's creation. For in him, his |
| Tx:24.51 | in all the universe. Nothing that God created has He failed to lay | before you lovingly as yours forever. And no thought within His Mind |
| Tx:24.51 | for you and look upon yourself as lovingly as He conceived of you | before the world began and as He knows you still. God changes not His |
| Tx:24.58 | happiness. And never doubt but that your specialness will disappear | before the Will of God, Who loves each part of Him with equal love |
| Tx:25.7 | the face of Christ from its beholders. And both of you stand there, | before Him now, to let Him draw aside the veil that seems to keep you |
| Tx:25.14 | that it will suddenly succeed and bring what it has never brought | before? |
| Tx:25.16 | Who hangs an empty frame upon a wall and stands | before it, deep in reverence, as if a masterpiece were there to see? |
| Tx:25.28 | what is given him, then will he see each situation that he thought | before was means to justify his anger turned to an event which |
| Tx:25.28 | his love. He will hear plainly that the calls to war he heard | before are really calls to peace. He will perceive that where he gave |
| Tx:25.34 | revenge, and every wish to hurt and kill and die will disappear | before the sun you bring. |
| Tx:25.35 | off because the sun in you has risen that they may be pushed away | before the light. They linger for a while, a little while, in twisted |
| Tx:25.36 | be restored to him for whom it was created as his only home? Nothing | before and nothing after it. No other place, no other state nor time. |
| Tx:25.38 | see the Son of God as innocent and wish him dead? Christ stands | before you both each time you look on one another. He has not gone |
| Tx:25.52 | Let us go back to what we said | before and think of it more carefully. It must be so that either God |
| Tx:25.57 | points to an alternative, another way of looking at what he has seen | before and recognizes as the world in which he lives and thought he |
| Tx:25.57 | recognizes as the world in which he lives and thought he understood | before. |
| Tx:26.4 | love be heard at all. Yet is it given him to make the world recede | before his song and sight of him replace the body's eyes. |
| Tx:26.16 | form you will not want. And you will see each little hurt resolved | before the Holy Spirit's gentle sight. For all of them are little in |
| Tx:26.16 | them are little in His sight and worth no more than just a tiny sigh | before they disappear, to be forever undone and unremembered. What |
| Tx:26.28 | Forgiveness brings no little miracles to lay | before the gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God Himself comes to |
| Tx:26.32 | eternity. And so is all time passed and everything exactly as it was | before the way to nothingness was made. The tiny tick of time in |
| Tx:26.33 | past. Each thing you look upon you saw but for an instant, long ago | before its unreality gave way to truth. Not one illusion still |
| Tx:26.33 | ago that it is hard indeed to hold it to your heart as if it were | before you still. |
| Tx:26.35 | as if it could be made again in time. You keep an ancient memory | before your eyes. And he who lives in memories alone is unaware of |
| Tx:26.47 | in miracles. And as such, the laws of healing must be understood | before the purpose of the course can be accomplished. Let us review |
| Tx:26.55 | Yet facts can be denied and thus unknown, though they were known | before they were denied. |
| Tx:27.3 | of attack upon God's Son. You hold a picture of your crucifixion | before his eyes that he may see his sins are writ in Heaven in your |
| Tx:27.3 | may see his sins are writ in Heaven in your blood and death and go | before him, closing off the gate and damning him to hell. Yet this is |
| Tx:27.15 | true forgiveness reigns can suffer. He holds not the proof of sin | before his brother's eyes. And thus he must have overlooked it and |
| Tx:27.18 | can never be undone. And hopelessness and death must disappear | before the ancient clarion call of life. This call has power far |
| Tx:28.13 | speaks in gentle sounds of love the Son of God remembers from | before his own remembering came in between the present and the past |
| Tx:28.24 | the other way, begins. This final step is an effect of what has gone | before, appearing as a cause. The miracle is the first step in giving |
| Tx:28.35 | who would no longer starve and would enjoy the feast of plenty set | before them there. And they will meet with your invited Guests the |
| Tx:28.36 | no one is deprived or can deprive. Here is a feast the Father lays | before His Son and shares it equally with him. And in Their sharing |
| Tx:28.42 | if you see there is no truth in yours, his dreams will [disappear | before his eyes], and he will understand what made the dream. |
| Tx:28.59 | lets his mind be healed and unified. His secret vows are powerless | before the Will of God, Whose promises he shares. And what he |
| Tx:29.16 | is to attain a state unlike the one in which you found yourself | before. There is no change in immortality, and Heaven knows it not. |
| Tx:29.20 | his dreams is his reality. But he must learn he is a savior first, | before he can remember what he is. And he must save who would be |
| Tx:29.22 | the darkness, you will see that God Himself is where his body is. | Before this light the body disappears, as heavy shadows must give way |
| Tx:29.54 | it represents. All forms of anti-Christ oppose the Christ and fall | before His face like a dark veil which seems to shut you off from |
| Tx:29.56 | What is an idol? Nothing! It must be believed | before it seems to come to life and given power that it may be |
| Tx:29.68 | is heard which everyone remembers, though he has not heard it since | before all time began. Forgiveness, once complete, brings |
| Tx:30.10 | and cannot see the question. Now you need a quick restorative | before you ask. |
| Tx:30.30 | you have sought perceives your happiness. You always ask advice | before you can decide on anything. Let this be understood, and you |
| Tx:30.31 | is but a fact. For you and your advisor must agree on what you want | before it can occur. It is but this agreement which permits all |
| Tx:30.32 | that it will ever have. It needs but two. These two are joined | before there can be a decision. Let this be the one reminder that you |
| Tx:30.44 | unchanged by your forgetting. It will always be exactly as it was | before the time when you forgot and will be just the same when you |
| Tx:30.63 | look on Him Whose hand they hold. The face of Christ is looked upon | before the Father is remembered. For He must be unremembered till His |
| Tx:30.83 | then in looking back you think you see another meaning in what went | before. What have you really done except to show there was no meaning |
| Tx:30.89 | For everything you see will change, and yet you thought it real | before, and now you think it real again. Reality is thus reduced to |
| Tx:31.4 | —an enormity so great the Holy Spirit's Voice seems small and still | before its magnitude. The world began with one strange lesson, |
| Tx:31.5 | made to teach. Now does your ancient overlearning stand implacable | before the Voice of truth and teach you that Its lessons are not |
| Tx:31.14 | Neither is true. Nor are they different. Yet must we see them both | before you can look past them to the one alternative that is a |
| Tx:31.18 | Before you answer, pause to think of this: | |
| Tx:31.22 | still an instant. Come without all thought of what you ever learned | before and put aside all images you made. The old will fall away |
| Tx:31.22 | before and put aside all images you made. The old will fall away | before the new without your opposition or intent. There will be no |
| Tx:31.25 | and how it must be made. For next to you is One Who holds the light | before you so that every step is made in certainty and sureness of |
| Tx:31.34 | All of them will lead to death. On some you travel gaily for a while | before the bleakness enters. And on some the thorns are felt at once. |
| Tx:31.35 | where every end is sure. Perhaps you would prefer to try them all | before you really learn they are but one. The roads this world can |
| Tx:31.51 | know exactly what would happen? Could he see your future and ordain | before it came what you should do in every circumstance? He must have |
| Tx:31.55 | it does not yet approach a basic question. Something must have gone | before these concepts of the self. And something must have done the |
| Tx:31.55 | it for him in the image of your own. While only he was treacherous | before, now must you be condemned along with him. |
| Tx:31.66 | clearly seen, that does not fit the picture as it was perceived | before will change the world for eyes that learn to see, because the |
| Tx:31.74 | The concept of the self stands like a shield, a silent barricade | before the truth, and hides it from your sight. All things you see |
| Tx:31.75 | as he beholds this One. For there is light where darkness was | before, and now the veil is lifted from his sight. |
| Tx:31.87 | to learn presented once again, so where you made a faulty choice | before, you now can make a better one and thus escape all pain which |
| Tx:31.87 | can make a better one and thus escape all pain which what you chose | before has brought to you. In every difficulty, all distress, and |
| Tx:31.88 | every circumstance and every place you raised an image of yourself | before. For what appears to hide the face of Christ is powerless |
| Tx:31.88 | before. For what appears to hide the face of Christ is powerless | before His majesty and disappears before His holy sight. The saviors |
| Tx:31.88 | the face of Christ is powerless before His majesty and disappears | before His holy sight. The saviors of the world who see like Him are |
| Tx:31.91 | And thus are miracles as natural as fear and agony appeared to be | before the choice for holiness was made. For in that choice are false |
| Tx:31.92 | see all pain in every form wherever it occurs but disappear as mists | before the sun. A miracle has come to heal God's Son and close the |
| Tx:31.93 | Deny me not the little gift I ask when in exchange I lay | before your feet the peace of God and power to bring this peace to |
| Tx:31.93 | and clean and fresh you will forget the pain and sorrow that you saw | before. Yet this a vision is which you must share with everyone you |
| Tx:31.94 | to our sight to lift us high above the thorny roads we traveled on | before the Christ appeared. Hear me, my brothers, hear and join with |
| Tx:31.97 | “Amen.” For Christ has come to dwell in the abode You set for Him | before time was, in calm eternity. The journey closes, ending at the |
| W1:6.3 | required should be preceded by a minute or so of mind searching, as | before, and the application of the idea to each upsetting thought |
| W1:9.2 | for the untrained mind to believe that what seems to be pictured | before it is not there. This idea can be quite disturbing and may |
| W1:10.1 | that they are not your real thoughts. We have made this distinction | before and will again. You have no basis for comparison as yet. When |
| W1:10.6 | The exercises consist, as | before, in searching your mind for all the thoughts which are |
| W1:10.8 | experience discomfort. Remember, however, to repeat the idea slowly | before applying it specifically, and also to add: |
| W1:16.3 | but equally unreal. We will practice this idea in many forms | before you really understand it. |
| W1:25.4 | Before you can make any sense out of the exercises for today, one | |
| W1:25.8 | Then move on to the next subject, and apply today's idea as | before. |
| W1:30.1 | is the springboard for vision. From this idea will the world open up | before you, and you will look upon it and see in it what you have |
| W1:30.1 | and you will look upon it and see in it what you have never seen | before. Nor will what you saw before be even faintly visible to you. |
| W1:30.1 | and see in it what you have never seen before. Nor will what you saw | before be even faintly visible to you. |
| W1:36.5 | and repeat the idea to yourself. Then open your eyes and continue as | before. |
| W1:44.3 | purpose, we will use a form of practice which has been suggested | before and which we will utilize increasingly. It is a particularly |
| W1:46.1 | because He has never condemned. And there must be condemnation | before forgiveness is necessary. Forgiveness is the great need of |
| W1:51.4 | willing to do so. Is not this a better choice than the one I made | before? |
| W1:52.3 | no “enemies.” And I will look with love on all that I failed to see | before. |
| W1:53.6 | will that they do so. My will is His, and I will place no other gods | before Him. |
| W1:54.2 | I see arises from my thinking errors, so will the real world rise | before my eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My thoughts cannot be |
| W1:54.4 | a private world. Even the mad idea of separation had to be shared | before it could form the basis of the world I see. Yet that sharing |
| W1:65.8 | to catch a few of the idle thoughts which escaped your attention | before, but do not strain or make undue effort in doing this. Then |
| W1:69.2 | Today let us make another real attempt to reach the light in you. | Before we undertake this in our more extended practice period, let us |

| W1:73.9 | Today it is the ego which stands powerless | before your will. Your will is free, and nothing can prevail against |
| W1:75.4 | single purpose makes our goal inevitable. Today the real world rises | before us in gladness, to be seen at last. Sight is given us, now |
| W1:75.7 | the world today. You can look upon it now as if you never saw it | before. You do not know yet what it looks like. You merely wait to |
| W1:76.1 | We have observed | before how many senseless things have seemed to you to be salvation. |
| W1:78.1 | and a miracle. Each grievance stands like a dark shield of hate | before the miracle it would conceal. And as you raise it up before |
| W1:78.1 | of hate before the miracle it would conceal. And as you raise it up | before your eyes, you will not see the miracle beyond. Yet all the |
| W1:78.2 | We will reverse the way you see by not allowing sight to stop | before it sees. We will not wait before the shield of hate, but lay |
| W1:78.2 | see by not allowing sight to stop before it sees. We will not wait | before the shield of hate, but lay it down and gently lift our eyes |
| W1:78.3 | lay them down, he will appear in shining light where each one stood | before. For every grievance is a block to sight, and as it lifts, you |
| W1:81.2 | been given the function of lighting up the world! Let me be still | before my holiness. In its calm light, let all my conflicts |
| W1:81.4 | of the world shine through this appearance. This shadow will vanish | before the light. |
| W1:81.5 | in this light will my function stand clear and perfectly unambiguous | before my sight. My acceptance does not depend on my recognizing what |
| W1:90.5 | time. I believe that the problem comes first, and time must elapse | before it can be worked out. I do not see the problem and the answer |
| W1:92.1 | what you see by putting little bits of glass or other clear material | before your eyes held in a frame or placed against the eye. |
| W1:92.8 | its sight, and none who enters its abode can leave without a miracle | before his eyes and strength and light abiding in his heart. |
| W1:96.2 | and effort, hopefulness and doubt, each one as futile as the one | before and failing as the next one surely will. |
| W1:101.3 | must be feared, for it will kill but slowly, taking everything away | before it grants the welcome boon of death to victims who are little |
| W1:101.3 | the welcome boon of death to victims who are little more than bones | before salvation is appeased. Its wrath is boundless, merciless, but |
| W1:104.2 | which are our own in truth. His are the gifts which we inherited | before time was and which will still be ours when time has passed |
| W1:104.7 | We clear a holy place within our minds | before His altar, where His gifts of peace and joy are welcome and to |
| W1:105.5 | in simple terms of adding more, for that implies that it was less | before. It adds by letting what cannot contain itself fulfill its aim |
| W1:109.3 | which it cannot solve. And no appearance but will turn to truth | before the eyes of you who rest in God. |
| W1:R3.8 | so you undertake one in the morning and the other in the hour just | before you go to sleep. |
| W1:122.5 | thankful it remains exactly as He planned it. Changelessly it stands | before you, like an open door with warmth and welcome calling from |
| W1:122.6 | All the complexities the world has spun of fragile cobwebs disappear | before the power and the majesty of this extremely simple statement |
| W1:122.12 | Before the light you will receive today the world will fade until it | |
| W1:124.3 | is our eternal gift to those who follow after and to those who went | before or stayed with us a while. And God, Who loves us with the |
| W1:127.9 | the legion of the future years of waiting for salvation disappears | before the timelessness of what you learn. Let us give thanks today |
| W1:128.7 | you will not value anything you see as much as when you looked at it | before. Your whole perspective on the world will shift by just a |
| W1:130.10 | it is not the kind of seeing that your eyes alone have ever seen | before. And you will know God's strength upheld as you made this |
| W1:131.15 | Seek for that door and find it. But | before you try to open it, remind yourself no one can fail who asks |
| W1:131.15 | has any meaning now; no other goal is valued now nor sought; nothing | before this door you really want, and only what lies past it do you |
| W1:131.16 | you see. A tiny moment of surprise, perhaps, will make you pause | before you realize the world you see before you in the light reflects |
| W1:131.16 | perhaps, will make you pause before you realize the world you see | before you in the light reflects the truth you knew and did not quite |
| W1:132.3 | You free the past from what you thought | before. You free the future from all ancient thoughts of seeking what |
| W1:135.17 | that plans is thus refusing to allow for change. What it has learned | before becomes the basis for its future goals. Its past experience |
| W1:136.11 | planning for your own defense. And you believe that Heaven quails | before such mad attacks as these, with God made blind by your |
| W1:136.20 | weather or fatigue, by food and drink, or any laws you made it serve | before. You need do nothing now to make it well, for sickness has |
| W1:137.7 | so healing must replace the fantasies of sickness which you hold | before the simple truth. When sickness has been seen to disappear in |
| W1:138.9 | Heaven's help, and all mistakes in judgment which the mind had made | before are open to correction as the truth dismisses them as |
| W1:138.12 | Before we close our eyes in sleep tonight, we reaffirm the choice | |
| W1:140.2 | awakened from the dream, and so his mind remains exactly as it was | before. He has not seen the light that would awaken him and end the |
| W1:140.11 | the day begins and end the day by listening again five minutes more | before we go to sleep. Our only preparation is to let our interfering |
| W1:R4.12 | His Word. And as you give your mind to the ideas for the day again | before you sleep, His gratitude surrounds you in the peace wherein He |
| W1:151.7 | light of what He sees do all the ego's dreams of what you are vanish | before the splendor He beholds. |
| W1:151.8 | because it rests on certainty so great that doubt is meaningless | before Its face. Christ cannot doubt Himself. The Voice of God can |
| W1:151.8 | now to play with toys of sin, unheeding of the body's witnesses | before the rapture of His holy face. |
| W1:151.15 | Spend 15 minutes thus when you awake, and gladly give another 15 more | before you go to sleep. Your ministry begins as all your thoughts are |
| W1:152.3 | that the truth is true and nothing else is true. This you have heard | before, but may not yet accept both parts of it. Without the first, |
| W1:155.1 | recognize you also and believe that you are like them as you were | before. |
| W1:155.8 | and nothing more. It asks that you accept the truth, and let it go | before you, lighting up the path of ransom from illusion. It is not a |
| W1:155.9 | as you walk with certainty of purpose to the truth. It goes | before you now, that they may see something with which they can |
| W1:155.11 | we make for everyone. We must not lose our way. For as truth goes | before us, so it goes before our brothers who will follow us. |
| W1:155.11 | We must not lose our way. For as truth goes before us, so it goes | before our brothers who will follow us. |
| W1:155.12 | content the holy Son of God? We walk to God. The truth that walks | before us now is one with Him and leads us to where He has always |
| W1:156.4 | feet. The scent of flowers is their gift to you. The waves bow down | before you, and the trees extend their arms to shield you from the |
| W1:156.4 | extend their arms to shield you from the heat and lay their leaves | before you on the ground that you may walk in softness, while the |
| W1:156.5 | is what the universe longs to behold. All living things are still | before you, for they recognize Who walks with you. The light you |
| W1:161.1 | fail to welcome in the Christ where fear and anger had prevailed | before. Here is Atonement made complete, the world passed safely by, |
| W1:162.2 | sin, and no illusion that the dream contains that will not fade away | before their might. They are the trumpet of awakening that sounds |
| W1:162.3 | and his body healed because he sleeps and wakens with the truth | before him always. He will save the world because he gives the world |
| W1:163.2 | its sightless eyes. The frail, the helpless, and the sick bow down | before its image, thinking it alone is real, inevitable, worthy of |
| W1:164.2 | The world fades easily away | before His sight. Its sounds grow dim. A melody from far beyond the |
| W1:164.4 | so great and so completely different from all things you sought | before that you will know that here your treasure is and here your |
| W1:164.5 | true. And in His judgment will a world unfold in perfect innocence | before your eyes. Now will you see it with the eyes of Christ. Now is |
| W1:165.4 | need you perceive how great the gift, how changed your mind will be | before it comes to you. Ask to receive, and it is given you. |
| W1:166.5 | his so great that everything the world contains is valueless | before its magnitude. |
| W1:169.8 | We have repeated several times | before that you but make a journey that is done. For oneness must be |
| W1:170.9 | of your release from abject slavery. You make a choice, standing | before this idol, seeing him exactly as he is. Will you restore to |
| W1:170.9 | you restore to love what you have sought to wrest from it and lay | before this mindless piece of stone? Or will you make another idol to |
| W1:170.12 | you made and call it god no longer. You have reached this place | before, but you have chosen that this cruel god remain with you in |
| W1:R5.10 | I am made whole, we go together to our ancient home, prepared for us | before time was and kept unchanged by time, immaculate and safe, as |
| W1:R5.12 | His extension in your own. We practice but an ancient truth we knew | before illusion seemed to claim the world. And we remind the world |
| W1:R5.14 | we review but we surround with it and use the thoughts to hold it up | before our minds and keep it clear in our remembrance throughout the |
| W1:181.2 | to give support to the intent which has replaced the one you held | before. Remove your focus on your brother's sins, and you experience |
| W1:181.4 | the goals this course is advocating are from those you held | before. And you have also been dismayed by the depressing and |
| W1:183.4 | meaning. No temptation but becomes a nameless and unwanted thing | before God's Name. Repeat His Name and see how easily you will forget |
| W1:183.4 | you gave them. They become anonymous and valueless to you, although | before you let the Name of God replace their little names, you stood |
| W1:183.4 | before you let the Name of God replace their little names, you stood | before them worshipfully, naming them as gods. |
| W1:187.1 | he has. In fact, giving is proof of having. We have made this point | before. What seems to make it hard to credit is not this. No one can |
| W1:187.3 | Ideas must first belong to you | before you give them. If you are to save the world, you first accept |
| W1:187.8 | to give as well. No form of sacrifice and suffering can long endure | before the face of one who has forgiven and has blessed himself. |
| W1:187.9 | The great illusion of the fear of God diminishes to nothingness | before the purity that you will look on here. Be not afraid to look. |
| W1:187.10 | Now are we one in thought, for fear has gone. And here, | before the altar to one God, one Father, one Creator and one thought, |
| W1:189.7 | you one thought the past has taught nor one belief you ever learned | before from anything. Forget this world, forget this course, and come |
| W1:190.8 | and a bitter place, where sorrow rules and little joys give way | before the onslaught of the savage pain that waits to end all joy in |
| W1:192.4 | the Word of God can now replace the senseless symbols written there | before. Forgiveness is the means by which the fear of death is |
| W1:193.12 | Would you fail to learn the simple lessons Heaven's Teacher sets | before you that all pain may disappear and God may be remembered by |
| W1:193.16 | happenings the hour brought, so that the next one is free of the one | before. The chains of time are easily unloosened in this way. |
| W1:195.2 | to take the steps which He directs and follow in the way He sets | before them to escape a prison that they thought contained no door to |
| W1:197.6 | you can never think the gifts of God are lent but for a little while | before He snatches them away again in death. For death will have no |
| W1:198.13 | is there silence all around the world. Now is there stillness where | before there was a frantic rush of thoughts that made no sense. Now |
| W1:200.3 | when you have but to look with open eyes to find that Heaven lies | before you, through a door that opens easily to welcome you? |
| W1:200.10 | of false desires, fallen from the trees of hopelessness you sought | before. Now are they underfoot. And you look up and on toward Heaven, |
| W2:227.1 | reality at all by my illusions. Now I give them up and lay them down | before the feet of truth, to be removed forever from my mind. This is |
| W2:WS.2 | his mind had thought of war. There was no need for such a thought | before, for peace was given without opposite and merely was. But when |
| W2:WS.3 | whereon His Word is written, with the gifts of your forgiveness laid | before it and the memory of God not far behind. |
| W2:251.1 | in that one is all I need and only what I need. All that I sought | before I needed not and did not even want. My only need I did not |
| W2:260.1 | me. Let me remember my Identity. And let my sinlessness arise again | before Christ's vision, through which I would look upon my brothers |
| W2:264.1 | Father, You stand | before me and behind, beside me, in the place I see myself, and |
| W2:WIC.3 | rest is dreams. Yet will these dreams be given unto Christ to fade | before His glory and reveal your holy Self, the Christ, to you at |
| W2:WIHS.1 | He provides are dreams all carried to the truth, to be dispelled | before the light of knowledge. There are sights and sounds forever |
| W2:WIHS.1 | sights and sounds forever laid aside. And where they were perceived | before, forgiveness has made possible perception's tranquil end. |
| W2:287.1 | What could be a substitute for happiness? What gift could I prefer | before the peace of God? What treasure would I seek and find and keep |
| W2:293.2 | holds safe from all past mistakes. And I would see only this world | before my eyes today. |
| W2:300.1 | are the certain lot of all who come here. For their joys are gone | before they are possessed, or even grasped. Yet this is also the idea |
| W2:305.1 | that the world contains no counterpart. Comparisons are still | before this peace. And all the world departs in silence as this peace |
| W2:320.1 | can never be denied because his Father shines upon his mind and lays | before it all the strength and love in earth and Heaven. I am he to |
| W2:WICR.2 | not be changed throughout the course of time, remaining as it was | before the thought of time began. |
| W2:325.1 | Son of God, to offer him a kindly home where he can rest a while | before he journeys on and help his brothers walk ahead with him and |

| W2:WIM.2 | its ways. A miracle inverts perception which was upside-down | before, and thus it ends the strange distortions that were manifest. |
| W2:WIM.3 | offers all the world the silent miracle of love. And each is laid | before the Word of God upon the universal altar to Creator and |
| W2:WIM.4 | in it and show it rested on a world more real than what you saw | before—a world redeemed from what you thought you saw. |
| W2:342.1 | I have reached the door beyond which lies the end of dreams. I stand | before the gate of Heaven, wondering if I should enter in and be at |
| W2:WAI.5 | Now is he redeemed. And as he sees the gate of Heaven stand open | before him, he will enter in and disappear into the Heart of God. |
| W2:E.2 | as certain of arriving home as is the pathway of the sun laid down | before it rises, after it has set, and in the half-lit hours in |
| M:1.3 | any place or time or manner. It does not matter who the teacher was | before he heard the Call. He has become a savior by his answering. He |
| M:2.4 | together in the present, finding each other as if they had not met | before. The pupil comes at the right time to the right place. This is |
| M:3.5 | for life. Yet should they decide to learn it, the perfect lesson is | before them and can be learned. And if they decide to learn that |
| M:4.4 | in the shabby offerings of the ego when the gifts of God are laid | before him? What is it that induces them to make the shift? |
| M:4.6 | it. He will find that many if not most of the things he valued | before will merely hinder his ability to transfer what he has learned |
| M:4.8 | mighty companions beside him. Now he rests a while and gathers them | before going on. He will not go on from here alone. |
| M:4.10 | that learning is consolidated. Now what was seen as merely shadows | before becomes solid gains, to be counted on in all “emergencies” as |
| M:4.16 | God's teachers trust in Him. And they are sure His Teacher goes | before them, making sure no harm can come to them. They hold His |
| M:4.24 | formerly. Nothing but sparkles now which seemed so dull and lifeless | before. And above all are all things welcoming, for threat is gone. |
| M:6.2 | Where healing has been given, it will be received. And what is time | before the gifts of God? We have referred many times in the text to |
| M:8.6 | others, and the body's eyes will report their changed appearances as | before. But the mind will put them all in one category—they are |
| M:11.4 | turns hell to Heaven merely by being what it is? The earth bows down | before its gracious Presence, and it leans down in answer to raise it |
| M:13.1 | can finally disappear. The first illusion, which must be displaced | before another thought system can take hold, is that it is a |
| M:16.1 | set and sees the road on which he walks stretch surely and smoothly | before him. |
| M:16.5 | early in the evening if it is not feasible for you to take it just | before going to sleep. It is not wise to lie down for it. It is |
| M:16.5 | come to some conclusions in this respect. If possible, however, just | before going to sleep is a desirable time to devote to God. It sets |
| M:16.7 | the teacher of God who has accepted His protection! All that he did | before in the name of safety no longer interests him. For he is safe |
| M:16.7 | difficulty in resolving them. He is as safe in the present as he was | before illusions were accepted into his mind and as he will be when |
| M:19.3 | about the past stem from injustice. Here is the lens which, held | before the body's eyes, distorts perception and brings witness of the |
| M:19.5 | it is entirely impartial. It accepts all evidence that is brought | before it, omitting nothing and assessing nothing as separate and |
| M:20.2 | unlike all previous experiences. It calls to mind nothing that went | before. It brings with it no past associations. It is a new thing |
| M:22.2 | teacher of God may have accepted the function God has given him long | before he has learned all that his acceptance holds out to him. It is |
| M:27.1 | losing vitality, and dying in the end? We have asked this question | before, but now we need to consider it still more carefully. It is |
| M:28.6 | because he let God's Voice proclaim the truth. And all he sought | before to crucify are resurrected with him, by his side as he |

| Tx:31.6 | lessons being taught to you in every moment of each day, since time | began and learning had been made? |
| Tx:31.97 | in calm eternity. The journey closes, ending at the place where it | began. No trace of it remains. Not one illusion is accorded faith, |

| W1:R2.1 | We are now ready for another review. We will | begin where our last review left off and cover two ideas each day. |
| W1:R2.2 | this general form: take about 15 minutes for each of them, and | begin by thinking about the idea and the comments which are included |
| W1:91.6 | Begin the longer practice periods with this statement of true cause | |
| W1:93.8 | if done for the first five minutes of every waking hour, we will | begin by stating the truth about our creation: |
| W1:94.3 | minutes of each waking hour to the attempt to feel the truth in you. | Begin these times of searching with these words: |
| W1:95.12 | the place in you in which there is no doubt that only this is true. | Begin the practice periods today with this assurance, given to your |
| W1:96.11 | Begin by saying this: | |
| W1:97.8 | Begin these happy exercises with the words the Holy Spirit speaks to | |
| W1:100.8 | Begin the exercises with the thought today's idea contains. Then | |
| W1:102.4 | Begin the longer practice periods today with this acceptance of God's | |
| W1:103.5 | Begin your periods of practicing today with this association, which | |
| W1:104.4 | the hourly five minutes given truth for your salvation, should | begin with this: |
| W1:105.7 | Today our practice periods will start a little differently. | Begin today by thinking of those brothers who have been denied by you |
| W1:106.8 | you understand it now, but as it is. Each hour's exercises should | begin with this request for your enlightenment: |
| W1:106.10 | whose answer has been waiting long to be received by you. It will | begin the ministry for which you came and which will free the world |
| W1:107.10 | Begin by asking Him Who goes with you upon this undertaking that He | |
| W1:108.8 | So we | begin the practice periods with the instruction for today and say: |
| W1:109.8 | too weary now to go their way alone. And they will hear the bird | begin to sing and see the stream begin to flow again, with hope |
| W1:109.8 | alone. And they will hear the bird begin to sing and see the stream | begin to flow again, with hope reborn and energy restored to walk |
| W1:110.6 | For your five minute practice periods, | begin with this quotation from the text: |
| W1:R3.5 | comments which are written first in each day's exercise. And then | begin to think about them while letting your mind relate them to your |
| W1:R3.13 | that we come from these reviews with learning gains so great that we | begin again on solid ground, with firmer footsteps and with stronger |
| W1:121.10 | Begin the longer practice periods by thinking of someone you do not | |
| W1:122.10 | of an hour to the search in which the end of hell is guaranteed. | Begin in hopefulness, for we have reached the turning point at which |
| W1:122.11 | Sink into happiness as you | begin these practice periods, for they hold out the sure rewards of |
| W1:129.7 | ten minutes in the morning and at night and once more in between. | Begin with this: |
| W1:130.8 | Begin your searching for the other world by asking for a strength | |
| W1:131.12 | This we acknowledge as we start upon our practice periods. | Begin with this: |
| W1:132.13 | is not apart from Him, and nowhere does the Father end, the Son | begin as something separate from Him. |
| W1:132.16 | Begin the 15 minute periods in which we practice twice today with | |
| W1:133.15 | Our two extended practice periods of 15 minutes will | begin with this: |
| W1:133.17 | to the gate of Heaven, which swings open as he comes. Should you | begin to let yourself collect some needless burdens or believe you |
| W1:134.18 | have been practicing thus far in willingness and honesty, you will | begin to sense a lifting up, a lightening of weight across your |
| W1:137.14 | Yet must we be prepared for such a gift. And so we will | begin the day with this and give ten minutes to these thoughts with |
| W1:138.7 | So we | begin today considering the choice that time was made to help us |
| W1:R4.1 | second part of learning how the truth can be applied. Today we will | begin to concentrate on readiness for what will follow next. Such is |
| W1:R4.5 | Let us | begin our preparation with some understanding of the many forms in |
| W1:R4.7 | Begin each day with time devoted to the preparation of your mind to | |
| W1:153.15 | we practice in a form we will maintain for quite a while. We will | begin each day by giving our attention to the daily thought as long |
| W1:153.20 | pause a moment as He tells us, “I am here.” Your practicing will now | begin to take the earnestness of love to help you keep your mind from |

| Tx:4.13 | not be a devoted teacher as long as you maintain it. I am constantly | being perceived as a teacher either to be exalted or rejected, but I |
| Tx:4.46 | ones from awareness because both are threatening to the ego and, | being concerned primarily with its own preservation in the face of |
| Tx:4.46 | By perceiving them as the same, the ego attempts to save itself from | being swept away, as it would surely be in the presence of knowledge. |
| Tx:4.48 | the Soul offers you the knowledge of permanence and unshakable | being. No one who has experienced the revelation of this can ever |
| Tx:4.49 | do not love what you have made, and what you made does not love you. | Being made out of the denial of the Father, the ego has no allegiance |
| Tx:4.54 | we made no distinction before between having the Kingdom of God and | being the Kingdom of God. |
| Tx:4.55 | The calm | being of God's Kingdom, which in your sane mind is perfectly |
| Tx:4.59 | need not be. Depression always arises ultimately from a sense of | being deprived of something you want and do not have. Know you are |
| Tx:4.65 | His Mind shone on you in your creation and brought your mind into | being. His Mind still shines on you and must shine through you. Your |
| Tx:4.71 | to be its home. Here is where the mind becomes actually dazed. | Being told by the ego that it is really part of the body and that the |
| Tx:4.74 | accurate perception, a state of clarity which the ego, fearful of | being judged truly, must avoid. |
| Tx:4.82 | no change at all. It is not a continuum nor is it understood by | being compared to an opposite. Knowledge never involves comparisons. |
| Tx:4.82 | is not dangerous except to the ego. Vaguely it senses threat, and | being unable to realize that “a little knowledge” is a meaningless |
| Tx:4.95 | perceives is a separate whole, without the relationships that imply | being. The ego is thus against communication except in so far as it |
| Tx:4.97 | to communicate, even though it may refuse to utilize it on behalf of | being. |
| Tx:4.98 | Existence as well as | being rests on communication. Existence, however, is specific in how, |
| Tx:4.98 | what, and with whom communication is judged to be worth undertaking. | Being is completely without these distinctions. It is a state in |
| Tx:4.99 | God, Who encompasses all | being, nevertheless created beings who have everything individually |
| Tx:4.99 | everything, since it can create only like itself. Remember that in | being there is no difference between “having” and “being” as there is |
| Tx:4.99 | “having” and “being” as there is in existence. In the state of | being, the mind gives everything always. |
| Tx:4.100 | yours is incomplete. And this He does know. He knows it in His own | Being and its experience of His Son's experience. The constant going |
| Tx:4.102 | any mind learns to be wholly helpful. This is impossible without | being wholly harmless because the two beliefs coexist. The truly |
| Tx:5.2 | Those who attempt to heal without | being wholly joyous themselves call forth different kinds of |
| Tx:5.3 | You are | being blessed by every beneficent thought of any of your brothers |
| Tx:5.8 | Thoughts increase by | being given away. The more who believe in them, the stronger they |
| Tx:5.11 | which senses the knowledge that lies beyond perception. It came into | being with the separation as a protection, inspiring the beginning of |
| Tx:5.18 | had no calling until the separation, because before that it had only | being and would not have understood the call to right thinking. The |
| Tx:5.33 | The Holy Spirit is the idea of healing. | Being thought, the idea gains as it is shared. Being the Call for |
| Tx:5.33 | the idea of healing. Being thought, the idea gains as it is shared. | Being the Call for God, it is also the idea of God. Since you are |
| Tx:5.33 | the Universe of which it is a part. Therefore, it is strengthened by | being given away. It increases in you as you give it to your |
| Tx:5.34 | you become aware of the Call for God in him and thus acknowledge its | being. There are two ways of seeing your brother which are |
| Tx:5.35 | to hear it. Will itself is an idea and is therefore strengthened by | being shared. If you make the mistake of looking for the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:5.56 | Ideas do not leave the mind which thought them to have a separate | being, nor do separate thoughts conflict with one another in space, |
| Tx:5.56 | them in the light of the Kingdom, making them, too, worthy of | being shared. When they have been sufficiently purified, He lets you |
| Tx:5.58 | as strong as the wisdom of God, in Whose heart and hands we have our | being. His quiet Children are His blessed Sons. The thoughts of God |
| Tx:5.64 | learn to regard it as freedom. The guiltless mind cannot suffer. | Being sane, it heals the body because it has been healed. The sane |
| Tx:5.76 | is easily explained if you remember that ideas increase only by | being shared. This quotation therefore emphasizes the fact that |
| Tx:5.88 | fixation remained and could never be eliminated by any living human | being. Essentially, this was the basis of Freud's pessimism, |
| Tx:5.89 | is on a level so high that it cannot be surmounted. You are always | being pulled back to your Creator, because you belong to Him. |
| Tx:5.91 | He has not learned that every mind God created is equally worthy of | being healed because God created it whole. You are merely asked to |
| Tx:6.6 | You have reacted for years as if you were | being crucified. This is a marked tendency of the separated ones, who |
| Tx:6.11 | offer to defend me with the sword, which I naturally refused, not | being at all in need of bodily protection. I am sorry when my |
| Tx:6.39 | are not ordinarily regarded as the same. We began with having and | being and more recently have used others. Hearing and being are |
| Tx:6.39 | having and being and more recently have used others. Hearing and | being are examples, to which we can also add teaching and being, |
| Tx:6.39 | and being are examples, to which we can also add teaching and | being, learning and being and, above all, projecting and being. This |
| Tx:6.39 | examples, to which we can also add teaching and being, learning and | being and, above all, projecting and being. This is because, as we |
| Tx:6.39 | and being, learning and being and, above all, projecting and | being. This is because, as we have said before, every idea begins in |
| Tx:6.39 | here, even though the ego does not know and is not concerned with | being at all. |
| Tx:6.40 | He presents no barrier at all to the communication of God. Thus, | being is never threatened. Your Godlike mind can never be defiled. |
| Tx:6.44 | through the conviction of teaching. Remember that, if teaching is | being and learning is being, [then] teaching is learning. Everything |
| Tx:6.44 | of teaching. Remember that, if teaching is being and learning is | being, [then] teaching is learning. Everything you teach, you are |
| Tx:6.51 | never asked. Having finally been wholly answered, it has never been. | Being alone lives in the Kingdom, where everything lives in God |
| Tx:6.52 | only the ability for certainty. The introduction of abilities into | being was the beginning of uncertainty because abilities are |
| Tx:6.56 | did not blot it out, because to eradicate it would be to attack it. | Being questioned, He did not question. He merely gave the Answer. His |
| Tx:6.65 | The Holy Spirit, who leads to God, translates communication into | being, just as He ultimately translates perception into knowledge. |
| Tx:6.73 | the first lesson seems to contain a contradiction since it is | being learned by a conflicted mind. This means conflicting |
| Tx:6.73 | ego in himself and responding primarily to the ego in others, he is | being taught to react to both as if what he does believe is not true. |
| Tx:6.79 | This is still a preliminary step since having and | being are still not equated. It is, however, more advanced than the |
| Tx:6.83 | is because they are in fundamental disagreement about everything, | being in fundamental disagreement about what you are. The ego's |
| Tx:6.89 | for God. He is getting you ready for the translation of having into | being by the very nature of the steps you must take with Him. |
| Tx:6.91 | speaks only for belief beyond question, which is the preparation for | being without question. As long as belief in God and His Kingdom is |
| Tx:6.93 | does. It is only your awareness which needs protection since your | being cannot be assailed. Yet a real sense of being cannot be yours |
| Tx:6.93 | protection since your being cannot be assailed. Yet a real sense of | being cannot be yours while you are doubtful of what you are. This is |
| Tx:6.93 | of what you are. This is why vigilance is essential. Doubts about | being must not enter your mind, or you cannot know what you are with |
| Tx:6.95 | it. Only this can cancel out the need for effort and call upon the | being which you both have and are. This recognition is wholly without |
| Tx:7.3 | to love. Love extends outward simply because it cannot be contained. | Being limitless, it does not stop. It creates forever, but not in |
| Tx:7.6 | must know yourself, since by it you know what you are. This is your | being. |
| Tx:7.8 | What is timeless is always there, because its | being is eternally changeless. It does not change by increase, |
| Tx:7.14 | belief. There is only certainty. God and His Sons, in the surety of | being, know that what you project you are. That form of the law is |
| Tx:7.14 | you project you are. That form of the law is not adapted at all, | being the law of creation. God Himself created the law by creating by |
| Tx:7.24 | one lesson and applies it to all individuals in all situations. | Being conflict-free, He maximizes all efforts and all results. By |
| Tx:7.27 | The ego, then, is always | being undone and does suspect your motives. Your mind cannot be |
| Tx:7.29 | Reality is yours, because you are reality. This is how having and | being are ultimately reconciled, not in the Kingdom, but in your |
| Tx:7.36 | of healing. Healing is the way to undo the belief in differences, | being the only way of perceiving the Sonship without this belief. |
| Tx:7.38 | is nothing else. God is all in all in a very literal sense. All | being is in Him who is all Being. You are therefore in Him since your |
| Tx:7.38 | all in all in a very literal sense. All being is in Him who is all | Being. You are therefore in Him since your being is His. Healing is a |
| Tx:7.38 | is in Him who is all Being. You are therefore in Him since your | being is His. Healing is a way of forgetting the sense of danger the |
| Tx:7.38 | Love needs only this invitation. It comes freely to all the Sonship, | being what the Sonship is. By your awakening to it, you are merely |
| Tx:7.46 | separate your self from your Creator, Who created you by sharing His | being with you. |
| Tx:7.55 | is, it cannot perceive itself as loving. This loses the awareness of | being, induces feelings of unreality, and results in utter confusion. |
| Tx:7.57 | as threatened by projecting the threat onto you and perceiving your | being as nonexistent. This ensures its continuance if you side with |
| Tx:7.64 | understand is up to you to decide. The ego believes this totally, | being fully committed to it. It is not true. The ego therefore is |
| Tx:7.65 | can be perceived with meaning only by the Holy Spirit, because your | being is the knowledge of God. Any belief that you accept which is |
| Tx:7.66 | are believing that it can be understood and is therefore capable of | being appreciated and loved. That would justify it, and it cannot be |
| Tx:7.69 | it is God's, and nothing that opposes this means anything at all. | Being a perfect accomplishment, the Sonship can only accomplish |
| Tx:7.71 | in this world. Yet denial is a defense, and so it is as capable of | being used positively as it is of being used destructively. Used |
| Tx:7.71 | and so it is as capable of being used positively as it is of | being used destructively. Used negatively it will be destructive |
| Tx:7.75 | the gift you both have and are, and so you do not know your | being. All confusion comes from not extending life, since that is not |
| Tx:7.79 | Being the part of your mind which does not believe it is responsible | |
| Tx:7.79 | of your mind which does not believe it is responsible for itself and | being without allegiance to God, the ego is incapable of trust. |
| Tx:7.90 | doubt as it is beyond belief. Your wholeness has no limits, because | being is in infinity. |
| Tx:7.91 | partiality, and it therefore responds as if it were the part that is | being sided against. To the Soul, this is truth, because it knows its |
| Tx:7.92 | is given all His power, because it is part of Him and shares His | Being with Him. Creating is the opposite of loss, as blessing is the |
| Tx:7.92 | is the opposite of loss, as blessing is the opposite of sacrifice. | Being must be extended. That is how it retains the knowledge of |
| Tx:7.93 | The Soul yearns to share its | being as its Creator did. Created by sharing, its will is to create. |
| Tx:7.93 | will is to create. It does not wish to contain God but to extend His | Being. The extension of God's Being is the Soul's only function. Its |
| Tx:7.93 | wish to contain God but to extend His Being. The extension of God's | Being is the Soul's only function. Its fullness cannot be contained |
| Tx:7.93 | reality than your unawareness of your Soul can interfere with its | being. |
| Tx:7.95 | whenever you will let Him. They are there as part of your own | being, because your fulfillment includes them. The creations of every |
| Tx:7.95 | every Son of God are yours since every creation belongs to everyone, | being created for the Sonship as a whole. |
| Tx:7.106 | are denying joy. The miracle is therefore a lesson in what joy is. | Being a lesson in sharing, it is a lesson in love, which is joy. |
| Tx:7.107 | world and is therefore natural. The world goes against your nature, | being out of accord with God's laws. The world perceives orders of |
| Tx:7.113 | any more than you can establish God's. But you can know both. | Being is known by sharing. Because God shared His Being with you, you |
| Tx:7.113 | you can know both. Being is known by sharing. Because God shared His | Being with you, you can know Him. But you must also know all He |
| Tx:8.17 | its accomplishment, because God's Will cannot be forced upon you, | being an experience of total willingness. The Holy Spirit knows how |
| Tx:8.17 | as God shares them, because this is the natural outcome of their | being. |
| Tx:8.25 | be refusing to acknowledge His Will. His Will does not vacillate, | being changeless forever. When you are not at peace, it can only be |
| Tx:8.27 | to unite the will of the Sonship with the Will of the Father by | being aware of the Father's Will myself. This is the awareness I came |
| Tx:8.32 | dominion of one will over another. God's Sons are equal in will, all | being the Will of their Father. This is the only lesson I came to |
| Tx:8.34 | Freedom is the only gift you can offer to God's Sons, | being an acknowledgment of what they are and what He is. Freedom is |
| Tx:8.36 | whose power is far beyond the power of its separate parts. By not | being separate, the Will of God is established in ours and as ours. |
| Tx:8.36 | undivided. The undivided will of the Sonship is the perfect creator, | being wholly in the likeness of God, Whose Will it is. You cannot be |
| Tx:8.50 | of the value He puts upon you. My devotion to you is of Him, | being born of my knowledge of myself and Him. We cannot be separated. |
| Tx:8.50 | His Sons with Himself. Can you be separated from your life and your | being? |
| Tx:8.54 | Holy Spirit interprets the body only as a means of communication. | Being the communication link between God and His separated Sons, the |
| Tx:8.60 | learn. His sense of adequacy suffers, and he must become depressed. | Being faced with an impossible learning situation, regardless of why |
| Tx:8.70 | inferior is that they may well be inaccurate. Functions are part of | being since they arise from it, but the relationship is not |
| Tx:8.77 | ego that is wholly true. But there is a corollary; if knowledge is | being and the ego has no knowledge, then the ego has no being. |
| Tx:8.77 | knowledge is being and the ego has no knowledge, then the ego has no | being. |
| Tx:8.79 | life under the guidance of the one Teacher Who knows what life is, | being the Voice for Life Itself. |
| Tx:8.86 | which should be taken literally because the Bible is about love, | being about God. |
| Tx:8.100 | of a request. The Holy Spirit is not concerned with form at all, | being aware only of meaning. The ego cannot ask the Holy Spirit for |
| Tx:8.100 | for everything of the Holy Spirit because your requests are real, | being of your will. Would the Holy Spirit deny the Will of God? And |
| Tx:8.102 | you will not know it because your cooperation is the law of its | being. You cannot change laws you did not make, and the laws of |
| Tx:8.117 | have. What you give is therefore the value you put on what you have, | being the exact measure of the value you put upon it. And this, in |
| Tx:9.6 | You will not escape paying the price for this, not because you are | being punished for it, but because you are following the wrong guide |
| Tx:9.28 | but he cannot bring light of himself, for light is not of him. Yet, | being for him, it must also be for his patient. The Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:9.29 | work. Nothing else works at all. This course is a guide to behavior. | Being a very direct and very simple learning situation, it provides |
| Tx:9.37 | Eternity is one time, its only dimension | being “always.” This cannot mean anything to you, however, until you |
| Tx:9.53 | awareness since both are untrue and are therefore on the same level. | Being the level of shift, it is experienced as shifting, and extremes |
| Tx:9.58 | in littleness with His own exalted answer to the question of your | being, so that you can cease to question it and know it for what it |
| Tx:9.61 | exceed your will? Nothing can reach you from beyond it because, | being in God, you encompass everything. Believe this, and you will |
| Tx:9.66 | that reality is in accord with neither? You do not remember | being awake. When you hear the Holy Spirit, you merely feel better |
| Tx:9.67 | Dreams will be impossible, because you will want only truth, and | being at last your will, it will be yours. |
| Tx:9.100 | to acknowledge you and that in His acknowledgment of you lies your | Being. You are not sick, and you cannot die. But you can confuse |
| Tx:10.11 | then, that you will to create since your will follows from His. And | being an extension of His Will, yours must be the same. |
| Tx:10.16 | and Son because he is both Father and Son. To unite having and | being is only to unite your will with His, for He wills you Himself. |
| Tx:10.18 | will seem to be unintegrated and therefore without meaning. And | being without meaning to you, you will not understand it. To deny |
| Tx:10.23 | there is no conflict in Him. Conflict is the root of all evil, for | being blind, it does not see whom it attacks. Yet it always attacks |
| Tx:10.44 | its results is merely to recognize that their source is not natural, | being out of accord with your true nature. We once said that to will |
| Tx:10.70 | he is separate. Yet they are eternal because they are loving. And | being loving, they are like the Father and therefore cannot die. The |
| Tx:10.71 | create unlike your Father, believing what you made to be capable of | being unlike Him. Yet everything in what you have made that is true |
| Tx:10.82 | His Son, whom He created free and whose freedom is protected by His | Being. |
| Tx:10.84 | in God's Son, for thereby you must be deceived in yourself. And | being deceived in yourself, you are deceived in your Father in Whom |
| Tx:11.38 | obvious that no one wants to find what would utterly defeat him. | Being unable to love, the ego would be totally inadequate in love's |
| Tx:11.59 | Every Child of God is one in Christ, for his | Being is in Christ as Christ's is in God. Christ's love for you is |
| Tx:11.60 | in perfect love of God and of each other. Heaven is your home, and | being in God, it must also be in you. |
| Tx:11.62 | know it must be there. By perceiving what it does, you recognize its | being. And by what it does, you learn what it is. You cannot see your |
| Tx:11.80 | minds and cannot be obliterated. It is no more past than future, | being forever always. |
| Tx:11.83 | is a thing of despair, for it can never be. And you who share God's | Being with Him could never be content without reality. What God did |
| Tx:11.84 | only perception is capable of error, and perception has never been. | Being corrected, it gives place to knowledge, which is forever the |
| Tx:11.85 | For the mind that judges perceives itself as separate from the mind | being judged, believing that by punishing another, it will escape |
| Tx:11.93 | prison he has made, and the way to find release is not denied him. | Being in him, he has found it. When he finds it is only a matter of |
| Tx:11.94 | know that you are God's Son. You have denied the condition of his | Being, which is his perfect blamelessness. Out of love he was |
| Tx:11.95 | no time to travel through. For God waits not for His Son in time, | being forever unwilling to be without him. And so it has always been. |
| Tx:11.97 | and what he is in truth. For God has never condemned His Son, and | being guiltless, he is eternal. |
| Tx:11.98 | of dispelling it. The ego believes in atonement through attack, | being fully committed to the insane notion that attack is salvation. |
| Tx:11.99 | He looks upon the guiltless Son of God, he knows this is true. And | being true for you, you cannot attack yourself, for without guilt, |
| Tx:11.99 | impossible. You, then, are saved because God's Son is guiltless. And | being wholly pure, you are invulnerable. |
| Tx:12.33 | love and fear. One is changeless but continually exchanged, | being offered by the eternal to the eternal. In this exchange it is |
| Tx:12.34 | and that they are not whole. For these figures have no witnesses, | being perceived in one separate mind only. |
| Tx:12.62 | And what you call with love will come to you. Love always answers, | being unable to deny a call for help or not to hear the cries of pain |
| Tx:12.63 | recognized. Christ is still there, although you know Him not. His | Being does not depend upon your recognition. He lives within you in |
| Tx:12.66 | in time, and it will fade. But this one thing is always yours, | being the gift of God unto His Son. Your one reality was given you, |
| Tx:13.2 | and therefore no aspect is separate. You are an aspect of knowledge, | being in the Mind of God, Who knows you. All knowledge must be yours, |
| Tx:13.4 | the Holy Spirit has no function. He is not separate from either, | being in the mind of both and knowing that mind is one. He is a |
| Tx:13.6 | Reality that is his Father. Christ's vision is His gift to you. His | Being is His Father's gift to Him. |
| Tx:13.13 | The world can give you only what you gave it, for | being nothing but your own projection, it has no meaning apart from |
| Tx:13.38 | shared. Perfect perception can merely show you what is capable of | being wholly shared. It can also show you the results of sharing |
| Tx:13.66 | only guiltlessness allays. Learning is living here, as creating is | being in Heaven. Whenever the pain of guilt seems to attract you, |
| Tx:13.71 | one can hurt the Son of God. His guilt is wholly without cause, and | being without cause, cannot exist. |
| Tx:13.76 | He created, for it is wholly pure. Do not decide against it, for | being of Him, it must be true. Peace abides in every mind that |
| Tx:13.92 | There is no effort, and you will be led as gently as if you were | being carried along a quiet path in summer. Only your own volition |
| Tx:14.18 | They do not protect; neither do they attack. They do nothing at all, | being nothing at all. As guardians of darkness and of ignorance, look |
| Tx:14.25 | be neither lost nor sought nor found. It is there, wherever you are, | being within you. Yet it can be recognized or unrecognized, real or |
| Tx:14.40 | Merely by | being what it is does truth release you from everything that it is |
| Tx:14.47 | one. The miracle is the one thing you can do that transcends order, | being based not on differences but on equality. |
| Tx:14.51 | also why everyone shares in it. The power of God is limitless. And | being always maximal, it offers everything to every call from anyone. |
| Tx:14.56 | everything of Him is perfectly open and freely accessible to all, | being for all. Nothing lives in secret, and what you would hide from |
| Tx:14.67 | that God lose His Identity, for if He did, you would lose yours. And | being yours, He cannot change Himself, for your identity is |
| Tx:15.16 | The Atonement is in time but not for time. | Being in you, it is eternal. What holds remembrance of God cannot be |
| Tx:15.17 | of peace is eternal because it is wholly without fear. It will come, | being the lesson God gives you through the Teacher He has appointed |
| Tx:15.42 | For the holy instant is given and received with equal willingness, | being the acceptance of the single will that governs all thought. |
| Tx:15.65 | love. This is the only love that is fully given and fully returned. | Being complete, it asks nothing. Being wholly pure, everyone joined |
| Tx:15.65 | is fully given and fully returned. Being complete, it asks nothing. | Being wholly pure, everyone joined in it has everything. This is not |
| Tx:15.82 | yours. Your relationships are with the universe. And this universe, | being of God, is far beyond the petty sum of all the separate bodies |
| Tx:15.90 | His attraction for you remains unlimited, but because your power, | being His, is as great as His, you can turn away from love. What you |
| Tx:15.98 | you are both destroyer and destroyed in part, but with the idea of | being able to be neither completely. And this you think saves you |
| Tx:15.100 | You will not succeed in | being partial hostage to the ego, for it keeps no bargains and would |
| Tx:15.100 | just as it is that makes the decision so easy! Salvation is simple, | being of God and therefore very easy to understand. Do not try to |
| Tx:15.105 | in the reality of the deprivation? For deprivation breeds attack, | being the belief that attack is justified. And as long as you would |
| Tx:15.109 | Him into ourselves. Those who receive the Father are one with Him, | being host to Him Who created them. And by allowing Him to enter, the |
| Tx:16.10 | miracles are at all, their attributes would have to be miraculous, | being part of them. |
| Tx:16.28 | of Heaven and by the united will of all who make Heaven what it is, | being joined within it. And so the one who would cross over is |
| Tx:16.43 | spoken of this before, but there are some aspects of what is really | being attempted that we have not touched upon. |
| Tx:16.45 | to be the unnatural ones. For this world is the opposite of Heaven, | being made to be its opposite, and everything here takes a direction |
| Tx:16.46 | the ego would never have you see that separation can only be loss, | being the one condition in which Heaven cannot be. |
| Tx:16.76 | and your illusions of time will not prevent the timeless from | being what it is nor you from experiencing it as it is. |
| Tx:17.17 | whom vengeance is really sought are centered on and separated off as | being the only parts of value. Every step taken in the making, the |
| Tx:17.36 | marshaled to defend you from your own attack. For you attack Them, | being part of Them, and They must save you, for They love Themselves. |
| Tx:17.48 | of faith. Do not abandon faith, now that the rewards of faith are | being introduced. If you believed the Holy Spirit was there to accept |
| Tx:17.63 | except in fantasy. Truth has not come because faith has been denied, | being withheld from where it rightfully belonged. Thus do you lose |
| Tx:17.65 | been done and where you see it done. A situation is a relationship, | being the joining of thoughts. If problems are perceived, it is |
| Tx:18.2 | indivisible. He does not judge between them, knowing they are one. | Being united, they are one because they are the same. Substitution is |
| Tx:18.21 | gratitude! Or mine through His! For we are joined as in one purpose, | being of one mind with Him. |
| Tx:18.53 | at all. And what God created is only what He would have it be, | being His Will. You cannot make His Will destructive. You can make |
| Tx:18.55 | prison, removed and unreachable, incapable of reaching out as | being reached. You hate this prison you have made and would destroy |
| Tx:18.58 | encompasses? Everyone has experienced what he would call a sense of | being transported beyond himself. This feeling of liberation far |

| Tx:18.76 | from its Creator. This little aspect is no different from the whole, | being continuous with it and at one with it. It leads no separate |
| Tx:18.76 | leads no separate life because its life is the oneness in which its | being was created. |
| Tx:18.86 | How is this done? It is extremely simple, | being based on what this little kingdom really is. The barren sands, |
| Tx:19.3 | not there, hearing what truth has never said, and behaving insanely, | being imprisoned by insanity. |
| Tx:19.4 | to him has separated you from him and kept you both apart from | being healed. Your faithlessness has thus opposed the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:19.16 | you do to you. Whom God created as His Son is slave to nothing, | being lord of all along with his Creator. You can enslave a body, but |
| Tx:19.16 | Creator. You can enslave a body, but an idea is free, incapable of | being kept in prison or limited in any way except by the mind that |
| Tx:19.49 | only to love.] Overlooking guilt completely, it sees no fear. | Being wholly without attack, it could not be afraid. Fear is |
| Tx:20.28 | power to their seeming source. Thus would He keep you free of them. | Being without illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit merely gives |
| Tx:20.58 | Spirit's goal will come from the same Source as does His purpose. | Being so simple and direct, this course has nothing in it that is not |
| Tx:21.13 | of mind by which the crucifixion is changed to resurrection. And | being true, it is so simple that it cannot fail to be completely |
| Tx:21.53 | Therefore, what joined the Will of God must be in you now, | being eternal. You must have set aside a place in which the Holy |
| Tx:21.64 | alone. But neither can accept a miracle instead without the other | being blessed by it and healed of pain. |
| Tx:21.67 | was given love by Love. And what Love plans is like Itself in this: | being united, It would have you learn what you must be. And being one |
| Tx:21.67 | in this: being united, It would have you learn what you must be. And | being one with It, it must be given you to give what It has given and |
| Tx:21.70 | your misery comes from the strange belief that you are powerless? | Being helpless is the cost of sin. Helplessness is sin's condition— |
| Tx:21.88 | for it but once to have it always. And if you do not have it always, | being what it is, you did not ask for it. For no one fails to ask for |
| Tx:22.5 | And where, you wonder, does your strange uneasiness, your sense of | being disconnected, and your haunting fear of lack of meaning in |
| Tx:22.13 | Son to the unworthy. Nothing but what is part of Him is worthy of | being joined. Nor is it possible that anything not part of Him can |
| Tx:22.21 | impossible, and no one undertakes to do what holds no hope of ever | being done. You know what your Creator wills is possible, but what |
| Tx:22.64 | Joy is unlimited because each shining thought of love extends its | being and creates more of itself. There is no difference anywhere in |
| Tx:23.1 | the belief in weakness, and what is weak is not the Will of God. | Being opposed to it, it is its “enemy.” And God is feared as an |
| Tx:23.9 | as meaningless as one or as a thousand. The ego joins with nothing, | being nothing. The victory it seeks is meaningless as is itself. |
| Tx:23.13 | fight against the truth. Illusions battle only with themselves. | Being fragmented, they fragment. But truth is indivisible and far |
| Tx:23.15 | it is His home. And you who are beloved of Him are no illusions, | being as true and holy as Himself. |
| Tx:23.22 | which God Himself is powerless to overcome. Sin cannot be remitted, | being the belief the Son of God can make mistakes for which his own |
| Tx:24.6 | and this must come from someone “better,” someone incapable of | being like what he condemns, “above” it, sinless by comparison with |
| Tx:24.53 | Voice that speaks for God in everything that lives and shares His | Being. |
| Tx:24.68 | a Son. Yet must this Son have been created like Himself. A perfect | being, all-encompassing and all-encompassed, nothing to add and |
| Tx:25.20 | you. And He is glad and thankful when you thank His perfect Son for | being what he is. And all His thanks and gladness shine on you who |
| Tx:25.30 | cannot change. What has been damned is damned and damned forever, | being forever unforgivable. If then it is forgiven, sin's perception |
| Tx:25.43 | it offers others. For he would only heal and only bless. And | being in accord with what God wills, he has the power to heal and |
| Tx:25.58 | him his sanity and stands between him and whatever hope he has of | being sane. Nor is he left without escape from madness, for he has a |
| Tx:25.66 | in the total cost, the greater his, the less is yours. And justice, | being blind, is satisfied by being paid, it matters not by whom. Can |
| Tx:25.66 | his, the less is yours. And justice, being blind, is satisfied by | being paid, it matters not by whom. Can this be justice? God knows |
| Tx:25.71 | punishment. But vengeance without love has gained in strength by | being separate and apart from love. And what but vengeance now can |
| Tx:27.10 | of fear or love. For now it witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose | being open and the mind made free again to choose what it is for. Now |
| Tx:27.25 | the fact that every thought extends because that is its purpose, | being what it really is. From an idea of self as two, there comes a |
| Tx:27.27 | goal divided and distinct for each of you preserves your Self from | being made aware of any function other than Its own. And thus is |
| Tx:27.47 | who could have saved it but stepped back because he was afraid of | being healed? The eyes of all the dying bring reproach, and suffering |
| Tx:27.48 | is there received is left behind on your returning to the world. And | being blessed, you will bring blessing. Life is given you to give the |
| Tx:27.63 | Now you are | being shown you can escape. All that is needed is you look upon the |
| Tx:27.83 | you thought you did. Except that now you think that what you did is | being done to you. The guilt for what you thought is being placed |
| Tx:27.83 | what you did is being done to you. The guilt for what you thought is | being placed outside yourself and on a guilty world which dreams your |
| Tx:28.1 | merely takes away. And what it takes away is long since gone, but | being kept in memory, appears to have immediate effects. This world |
| Tx:28.2 | not desire its effects? Remembering is as selective as perception, | being its past tense. It is perception of the past as if it were |
| Tx:28.28 | a miracle, you do not add your dream of fear to one that is already | being dreamed. Without support, the dream will fade away without |
| Tx:28.45 | all. How holy is the smallest grain of sand when it is recognized as | being part of the completed picture of God's Son! The forms the |
| Tx:28.61 | apart from it. For healing will be one or not at all, its oneness | being where the healing lies. What could correct for separation but |
| Tx:29.9 | to find a loss of self in finding God? Yet can your Self be lost by | being found? |
| Tx:29.11 | have accepted healing's Cause, and so it must be you are healed. And | being healed, the power to heal must also now be yours. The miracle |

| Tx:29.34 | they have left their hold on every vain illusion of the world. And | being empty, they received instead a brother's hand in which |
| Tx:29.48 | All idols of this world were made to keep the truth within from | being known to you and to maintain allegiance to the dream that you |
| Tx:29.56 | out. It merely lifts the veil and lets the truth shine unencumbered, | being what it is. It does not need belief to be itself, for it has |
| Tx:29.60 | establish you as more than God. But you will never be content with | being less. |
| Tx:29.68 | the mind from what it thinks. They do not seek to prove the dream is | being dreamed by someone else. And in these dreams a melody is heard |
| Tx:30.14 | your opposition. For you have already gotten angry, and your fear of | being answered in a different way from what your version of the |
| Tx:30.20 | against the sense of opposition and reminds you that help is not | being thrust upon you but is something that you want and that you |
| Tx:30.21 | this point is reached, you will believe your happiness depends on | being right. But this much reason have you now attained—you would |
| Tx:30.24 | been obscured by the insane belief you want it for the goal of | being right when you are wrong. Thus is the readiness for asking |
| Tx:30.38 | Idols are quite specific. But your will is universal, | being limitless. And so it has no form nor is content for its |
| Tx:30.41 | Your will to be complete is but God's Will, and this is given you by | being His. God knows not form. He cannot answer you in terms which |
| Tx:30.70 | to attack that has been made. And thus is pardon inappropriate, by | being granted where it is not due. |
| Tx:30.71 | a real attack that calls for punishment. Salvation does not lie in | being asked to make unnatural responses which are inappropriate to |

| Tx:31.6 | and incredible in difficulty, will withstand the simple lessons | being taught to you in every moment of each day, since time began and |
| Tx:31.13 | need be laid for bringing in the new. There is an ancient battle | being waged against the truth, but truth does not respond. Who could |

| W1:96.1 | both good and evil, loving and hating, mind and body. This sense of | being split into opposites induces feelings of acute and constant |
| W1:98.6 | promise of complete success. And since time has no meaning, you are | being asked for nothing in return for everything. Here is a bargain |
| W1:103.1 | it, nor can it be experienced where love is not. Love has no limits, | being everywhere. And therefore joy is everywhere as well. Yet can |
| W1:103.2 | no reality in truth, bear witness to the fear of God, forgetting | being Love, He must be joy. |
| W1:103.4 | God, | being Love, is also happiness. To fear Him is to be afraid of joy. |
| W1:103.6 | fear, and joy becomes what you expect to take the place of pain. God | being Love, it will be given you. Bolster this expectation frequently |

| W1:R4.5 | they are—defenses which protect your unforgiving thoughts from | being seen and recognized. Their purpose is to show you something |
| W1:156.1 | of sin impossible. It promises there is no cause for guilt, and | being causeless it does not exist. It follows surely from the basic |
| W1:157.6 | Your body will be sanctified today, its only purpose | being now to bring the vision of what you experience this day to |

| Tx:4.28 | Belief is an ego function, and as long as your origin is open to | |
| Tx:4.28 | Belief is an ego function, and as long as your origin is open to | belief at all, you are regarding it from an ego viewpoint. [That is |
| Tx:4.28 | Bible quotes me as saying “Ye believe in God, believe also in me.” | Belief does apply to me, because I am the teacher of the ego.] When |
| Tx:4.28 | When teaching is no longer necessary, you will merely know God. | Belief that there is another way is the loftiest idea of which ego |
| Tx:4.33 | itself, because this premise is its foundation. The ego is the | belief of the mind that it is completely on its own. Its ceaseless |
| Tx:4.48 | separation, and its continued existence depends on your continuing | belief in the separation. Having reduced the Soul impulses to the |
| Tx:4.48 | the ego has to offer you some sort of reward for maintaining this | belief. All it can offer is a sense of temporary existence, which |
| Tx:4.50 | to cover or hide again. It is necessary to repeat here that your | belief in darkness and in hiding is why the light cannot enter. The |
| Tx:4.55 | would undertake to believe what is not true and then protect this | belief at the cost of truth? |
| Tx:4.63 | minds slip away. The problem is not one of concentration; it is the | belief that no one, including yourself, is worth consistent effort. |
| Tx:4.63 | consistently against this deception, and do not permit this shabby | belief to pull you back. The disheartened are useless to themselves |
| Tx:4.71 | is its own best argument that you cannot be of God. This is the | belief that the ego sponsors eagerly. Yet the ego hates the body |
| Tx:4.85 | The ego is nothing more than a part of your | belief about yourselves. Your other life has continued without |
| Tx:4.88 | to believe that you are. The ego is a device for maintaining this | belief, but it is still only your willingness to use the device that |
| Tx:4.104 | broken bodies are often looked down on by the ego because of its | belief that nothing but a perfect body is worthy as its own temple. |
| Tx:5.6 | you can accept the concept that the world is one of ideas, the whole | belief in the false association which the ego makes between giving |
| Tx:5.21 | You are the Kingdom of Heaven, but you have let the | belief in darkness enter your minds, and so you need a new light. The |
| Tx:5.31 | The power of our joint motivation is beyond | belief but not beyond accomplishment. What we can accomplish together |
| Tx:5.37 | is an idea of God, so the Soul understands it perfectly. Time is a | belief of the ego, so the lower mind, which is the ego's domain, |
| Tx:5.60 | except to the ego, but do not underestimate the power of the ego's | belief in it. This is the belief from which all guilt really stems. |
| Tx:5.60 | not underestimate the power of the ego's belief in it. This is the | belief from which all guilt really stems. |
| Tx:5.63 | thinking will always be attended with guilt because it is the | belief in sin. |
| Tx:5.71 | to be in time rather than eternity and have therefore changed your | belief in your status. Yet your election is both free and alterable. |
| Tx:5.72 | ego's continuity and gives it a false sense of security through the | belief that you cannot escape from it. But you can and must. God |
| Tx:5.86 | clearly could have been a means toward real release from the time | belief, had Freud pursued it with an open mind. Freud, however, |
| Tx:5.89 | This knowledge plagued Freud's | belief in his own thought system at every turn because he was both an |
| Tx:6.25 | in will must involve a rejection of part of it, and this is the | belief in separation. The wholeness of God, which is His peace, |
| Tx:6.27 | Projection will always hurt you. It reinforces your | belief in your own split mind, and its only purpose is to keep the |
| Tx:6.30 | You cannot change it now or ever. It is forever true. It is not a | belief but a fact. Anything that God create[s] is as true as He is. |
| Tx:6.54 | to the awareness of their perfection and thus side with the | belief that those who have everything need help and are therefore |
| Tx:6.64 | You cannot perform miracles without believing it, because it is a | belief in perfect equality. Only one equal gift can be offered to the |
| Tx:6.88 | are not recognizing this mutual exclusiveness and are holding the | belief that you can choose either one. By teaching what to choose, |
| Tx:6.90 | the Kingdom and have therefore excluded yourself from it in your | belief. It is therefore essential to teach you that you must be |
| Tx:6.90 | essential to teach you that you must be included and that the | belief that you are not is the only thing that you must exclude. |
| Tx:6.91 | said that altars are beliefs, but God and His creations are beyond | belief, because they are beyond question. The Voice for God speaks |
| Tx:6.91 | because they are beyond question. The Voice for God speaks only for | belief beyond question, which is the preparation for being without |
| Tx:6.91 | which is the preparation for being without question. As long as | belief in God and His Kingdom is assailed by any doubts in your |
| Tx:6.91 | His creation and therefore does engender doubt. You cannot go beyond | belief until you believe fully. |
| Tx:7.14 | In the Kingdom there is no teaching or learning, because there is no | belief. There is only certainty. God and His Sons, in the surety of |
| Tx:7.28 | this idea, because all your conflicts come from it. It is the | belief that conflicting interests are possible, and therefore you |
| Tx:7.36 | Holy Spirit sees no order of healing. Healing is the way to undo the | belief in differences, being the only way of perceiving the Sonship |
| Tx:7.36 | being the only way of perceiving the Sonship without this | belief. This perception is therefore in accord with the laws of God, |
| Tx:7.41 | healing or for magic, but you must remember that magic is always the | belief that healing is harmful. This is its totally insane premise, |
| Tx:7.43 | not be experiencing himself as truly helpful at the time, but the | belief that he is, in the mind of another, helps him. |
| Tx:7.55 | the power of your thought and thus rendered it powerless in your | belief. |
| Tx:7.61 | find this difficult is because you think there is something else. | Belief does not require vigilance unless it is conflicted. If it is, |
| Tx:7.65 | by the Holy Spirit, because your being is the knowledge of God. Any | belief that you accept which is apart from this will obscure God's |
| Tx:7.79 | to God, the ego is incapable of trust. Projecting its insane | belief that you have been treacherous to your Creator, it believes |
| Tx:7.85 | you do not want by giving it away. Giving it is how you keep it. The | belief that by giving it out you have excluded it from within is a |
| Tx:7.87 | is to break into pieces, and mind cannot attack or be attacked. The | belief that it can, a fallacy which the ego always makes, underlies |
| Tx:7.87 | Yet its existence is dependent on your mind, because the ego is your | belief. The ego is therefore a confusion in identification which |
| Tx:7.88 | you made it by believing in it, so you can dispel it by withdrawing | belief from it. Do not project the responsibility for your belief in |
| Tx:7.88 | belief from it. Do not project the responsibility for your | belief in it onto anyone else, or you will preserve the belief. When |
| Tx:7.88 | for your belief in it onto anyone else, or you will preserve the | belief. When you are willing to accept sole responsibility for the |
| Tx:7.89 | The Holy Spirit will teach you to perceive beyond | belief, because truth is beyond belief, and His perception is true. |
| Tx:7.89 | will teach you to perceive beyond belief, because truth is beyond | belief, and His perception is true. The ego can be completely |
| Tx:7.89 | ego can be completely forgotten at any time, because it was always a | belief that is totally incredible. No one can keep a belief he has |
| Tx:7.89 | it was always a belief that is totally incredible. No one can keep a | belief he has judged to be unbelievable. The more you learn about the |
| Tx:7.89 | unbelievable must be apparent, but it is not recognized as beyond | belief, because it was made by belief. |
| Tx:7.89 | but it is not recognized as beyond belief, because it was made by | belief. |
| Tx:7.90 | accepting the Atonement for yourself, you are deciding against the | belief that you can be alone, thus dispelling the idea of separation |
| Tx:7.90 | part of you. This identification is as beyond doubt as it is beyond | belief. Your wholeness has no limits, because being is in infinity. |
| Tx:7.104 | the follower is. However, this too is merely a matter of his own | belief. Believing that he can betray, he believes that everything can |
| Tx:8.28 | The world must despise and reject me, because the world is the | belief that love is impossible. Your reactions to me are the |
| Tx:8.50 | God's own treasure do not regard yourselves as valuable. Given this | belief, you cannot understand anything. I share with God the |
| Tx:8.53 | to accept this interpretation. You are accepting it simply by the | belief that attack can get you something you want. If you did not |
| Tx:8.57 | him to belittle himself in your mind, but give him freedom from his | belief in littleness and thus escape from yours. As part of you, he |
| Tx:8.59 | orders of miracles do. Thought cannot be made into flesh except by | belief, since thought is not physical. Yet thought is communication, |
| Tx:8.62 | by making whole, which is also natural. All mind is whole, and the | belief that part of it is physical, or not mind, is a fragmented (or |
| Tx:8.68 | from the results of what is not true. Free your minds from the | belief that this is possible. In its complete impossibility and your |
| Tx:8.72 | It has been particularly difficult to overcome the ego's | belief in the body as an end, because this is synonymous with the |
| Tx:8.72 | belief in the body as an end, because this is synonymous with the | belief in attack as an end. The ego has a real investment in |
| Tx:8.72 | in sickness. If you are sick, how can you object to the ego's firm | belief that you are not invulnerable? This is a particularly |
| Tx:8.80 | to heal the body, for this would merely be to accept the ego's | belief that the body is the proper aim for healing. Ask rather that |
| Tx:8.96 | it is the same as God's. The separation is nothing more than the | belief that it is different. |
| Tx:8.101 | the impossible, believing that to achieve it is success? The | belief that you must have the impossible in order to be happy is |
| Tx:8.102 | The fact that God is love does not require | belief, but it does require acceptance. It is indeed possible for you |
| Tx:8.114 | your brothers because I believe in you, and you will learn that my | belief in you is justified. Believe in me by believing in them for |
| Tx:9.9 | Atonement is for all, because it is the way to undo the | belief that anything is for you alone. To forgive is to overlook. |
| Tx:9.14 | the beginning and thus keeping it unreal for you. Do not let any | belief in its realness enter your minds at all, or you will also |
| Tx:9.43 | You cannot evaluate an insane | belief system from within it. Its own range precludes this. You can |
| Tx:9.44 | that arises from it means anything. The Holy Spirit judges every | belief you hold in terms of where it comes from. If it comes from |
| Tx:9.49 | real. It is an attempt to counteract your littleness, based on the | belief that the littleness is real. Without this belief, grandiosity |
| Tx:9.49 | based on the belief that the littleness is real. Without this | belief, grandiosity is meaningless, and you could not possibly want |
| Tx:9.54 | you have replaced it with something you have made. Perhaps it is the | belief in littleness; perhaps it is the belief in grandiosity. Yet it |
| Tx:9.54 | have made. Perhaps it is the belief in littleness; perhaps it is the | belief in grandiosity. Yet it must be insane because it is not true. |
| Tx:9.58 | hear, for God does not deceive. He would have you replace the ego's | belief in littleness with His own exalted answer to the question of |
| Tx:9.77 | power and never usurps it. Sickness is idolatry, because it is the | belief that power can be taken from you. Yet this is impossible, |
| Tx:9.84 | and worship him because he was made as God's replacement. He is the | belief that you can choose which god is real. Although it is |
| Tx:9.91 | Him, he strengthens His Voice in a sick brother by weakening his | belief in sickness, which he does not share. The power of one mind |
| Tx:10.14 | afraid to know God's Will because you believe it is not yours. This | belief is your whole sickness and your whole fear. Every symptom of |
| Tx:10.14 | Every symptom of sickness and fear arises here because this is the | belief that makes you want not to know. Believing this, you hide in |
| Tx:10.41 | power to do something, and the whole separation fallacy lies in the | belief that the ego has the power to do anything. The ego is fearful |
| Tx:10.44 | that stems from the ego is the natural outcome of its central | belief, and the way to undo its results is merely to recognize that |
| Tx:10.45 | Can you believe that autonomy is meaningful apart from Him? The | belief in ego autonomy is costing you the knowledge of your |
| Tx:10.47 | to your allegiance is that it can give power to you. Without this | belief, you would not listen to it at all. How, then, can its |
| Tx:10.53 | understanding, and truth lie in separation, and to establish this | belief it must attack. Unaware that the belief cannot be established |
| Tx:10.53 | and to establish this belief it must attack. Unaware that the | belief cannot be established and obsessed with the conviction that |
| Tx:10.60 | are interpreting against it and therefore do not believe it. And if | belief determines perception, you do not perceive what it means and |
| Tx:11.11 | false, for it was made out of denial, and denial depends on the real | belief in what is denied for its own existence. |
| Tx:11.12 | fear correctly as a positive affirmation of the underlying | belief it masks, you are undermining its perceived usefulness by |
| Tx:11.26 | and to be saved by attack. If he attacks, you are agreeing with this | belief, and if you attack, you are reinforcing it. Remember that |
| Tx:11.65 | you have two functions, so long will you need correction. For this | belief is the destruction of peace, a goal in direct opposition to |
| Tx:11.86 | They appear to lose what they love, perhaps the most insane | belief of all. And their bodies wither and gasp and are laid in the |
| Tx:11.87 | that it was the Father Who drove him out of paradise. For in that | belief, the knowledge of the Father was lost, since only those who do |
| Tx:11.94 | can you understand his oneness. For the idea of guilt brings a | belief in condemnation of one by another, projecting separation in |
| Tx:12.3 | The darkest of your hidden cornerstones holds your | belief in guilt from your awareness. For in that dark and secret |
| Tx:12.14 | You have built your whole insane | belief system because you think you would be helpless in God's |
| Tx:13.12 | faith in it is pain. And faith can be rewarded only in terms of the | belief in which the faith was placed. Faith makes the power of |
| Tx:13.12 | the belief in which the faith was placed. Faith makes the power of | belief, and where it is invested determines its reward. For faith is |
| Tx:13.15 | believe this not. For sin and condemnation are the same, and the | belief in one is faith in the other, calling for punishment instead |
| Tx:13.33 | Like you my faith and my | belief are centered on what I treasure. The difference is that I love |
| Tx:13.33 | placed upon you. I love all that He created, and all my faith and my | belief I offer unto it. My faith in you is strong as all the love I |
| Tx:13.42 | His, cannot be broken. You may believe you want it broken, and this | belief does interfere with the deep peace in which the sweet and |
| Tx:13.51 | he gives to them. The thoughts he shares with God are beyond his | belief, but those he made are his beliefs. And it is these, and not |
| Tx:13.71 | that whatever he may try to do to you, your perfect freedom from the | belief that you can be harmed shows him he is guiltless. He can do |
| Tx:13.72 | you. The causeless cannot be. Do not attest to it, and do not foster | belief in it in any mind. Remember always that mind is one and cause |
| Tx:14.19 | perfectly clear. Keep not guilt and guiltlessness apart, for your | belief that you can have them both is meaningless. All you have done |
| Tx:14.25 | cornerstone of fear on which you have erected your insane system of | belief, the truth lies hidden. Yet you cannot know this, for by |
| Tx:14.26 | impossible. It is therefore not a point of view at all but merely a | belief in something that does not exist. It is only this belief that |
| Tx:14.26 | merely a belief in something that does not exist. It is only this | belief that the unknowing have, and by it they are wrong about |
| Tx:14.27 | is a distorted process of thinking whereby two systems of | belief which cannot coexist are both maintained. It has been |
| Tx:14.28 | from sight, for each in a separate place can be endowed with firm | belief. Bring them together, and the fact of their complete |
| Tx:15.2 | One source of perceived discouragement from which you suffer is your | belief that this takes time, and that the results of the Holy |
| Tx:15.2 | to your identification with the ego, which uses time to support its | belief in destruction. The ego, like the Holy Spirit, uses time to |
| Tx:15.3 | that Heaven is not for you. How can the guilty hope for Heaven? The | belief in hell is inescapable to those who identify with the ego. |
| Tx:15.7 | still believe that it can offer the escape from it. But the | belief in guilt must lead to the belief in hell, and always does. The |
| Tx:15.7 | offer the escape from it. But the belief in guilt must lead to the | belief in hell, and always does. The only way in which the ego allows |
| Tx:15.8 | is no hell. Hell is only what the ego has made of the present. The | belief in hell is what prevents you from understanding the present, |
| Tx:15.22 | little because it is a world made out of littleness in the strange | belief that littleness can content you. When you strive for anything |
| Tx:15.22 | can content you. When you strive for anything in this world with the | belief that it will bring you peace, you are belittling yourself and |
| Tx:15.28 | Decide for God through Him. For littleness and the | belief that you can be content with littleness are the decisions you |
| Tx:15.47 | relationships, with special love, can offer you salvation is the | belief that separation is salvation. For it is the complete equality |
| Tx:15.68 | The ego wishes no one well. Yet its survival depends on your | belief that you are exempt from its evil intentions. It counsels, |
| Tx:15.68 | relationships, forged out of anger and dedicated to but one insane | belief—that the more anger you invest outside yourself, the safer |
| Tx:15.90 | release and what the Holy Spirit must undo to set him free. For his | belief in limits has imprisoned him. |
| Tx:15.105 | accomplish this yourselves when the basis of your attempts is the | belief in the reality of the deprivation? For deprivation breeds |
| Tx:15.105 | reality of the deprivation? For deprivation breeds attack, being the | belief that attack is justified. And as long as you would retain the |
| Tx:16.75 | point to truth. The holy instant is the opposite of the ego's fixed | belief in salvation through vengeance for the past. In the holy |
| Tx:17.5 | are trying to make illusions real and keep them by justifying your | belief in them. But to give illusions to truth is to enable truth to |
| Tx:18.40 | and remain unwilling to give place to One Who knows. The whole | belief in orders of difficulty in miracles is centered on this. |
| Tx:18.50 | God give but knowledge of Himself? What else is there to give? The | belief that you could give and get something else, something outside |
| Tx:18.71 | that makes love seem limited. For the body is a limit on love. The | belief in limited love was its origin, and it was made to limit the |
| Tx:19.6 | upon the mind and not the body. The inevitable compromise is the | belief that the body must be healed, and not the mind. For this |
| Tx:19.17 | made right. But sin, were it possible, would be irreversible. The | belief in sin is necessarily based on the firm conviction that minds, |
| Tx:19.17 | Sin calls for punishment as error for correction, and the | belief that punishment is correction is clearly insane. |
| Tx:19.30 | In error, yes; for this can be corrected by the mind. But sin is the | belief that your perception is unchangeable and that the mind must |
| Tx:19.32 | will find guilt attractive and believe that sin is precious. For the | belief that bodies limit mind leads to a perception of the world in |
| Tx:19.33 | of proving this is impossible. Heaven has smiled upon it, and the | belief in sin has been uprooted in its smile of love. You see it |
| Tx:19.34 | other overcome mistakes by joyously releasing one another from the | belief in sin. |
| Tx:19.47 | of a wish, this tiny illusion, this microscopic remnant of the | belief in sin, is all that remains of what once seemed to be the |
| Tx:19.59 | peace must flow across, and closely related to the first, is the | belief that the body is valuable for what it offers. For here is the |
| Tx:19.61 | What has the body really given you that justifies your strange | belief that in it lies salvation? Do you not see that this is the |
| Tx:19.61 | belief that in it lies salvation? Do you not see that this is the | belief in death? Here is the focus of the perception of Atonement as |
| Tx:19.66 | you that its power is gone forever. Where can guilt be, when the | belief in sin is gone? And where is death, when its great advocate is |
| Tx:19.74 | The ego's messages are always sent away from you in the | belief that for your message of attack and guilt will someone other |
| Tx:19.92 | This is the darkest veil, upheld by the | belief in death and protected by its attraction. The dedication to |
| Tx:19.93 | See how the | belief in death would seem to “save” you. For if this is gone, what |
| Tx:20.16 | The | belief in sin is an adjustment. And an adjustment is a change; a |
| Tx:20.16 | And an adjustment is a change; a shift in perception or a | belief that what was so before has been made different. Every |
| Tx:20.17 | Adjustments of any kind are of the ego. For it is the ego's fixed | belief that all relationships depend upon adjustments to make of them |
| Tx:20.22 | The world believes in sin, but the | belief that made it as you see it is not outside you. Seek not to |
| Tx:20.55 | The body is the ego's idol; the | belief in sin made flesh and then projected outward. This produces |
| Tx:21.21 | for here is it invested. Think not that you are faithless, for your | belief and trust in this is strong indeed. |
| Tx:21.32 | Faith and | belief and vision are the means by which the goal of holiness is |
| Tx:21.32 | when you wander, He reminds you there is but one. His faith and His | belief and vision are all for you. And when you have accepted them |
| Tx:21.32 | you will have need of them no longer. For faith and vision and | belief are meaningful only before the state of certainty is reached. |
| Tx:21.33 | in faith in his illusions about himself. For faith, perception, and | belief you made as means for losing certainty and finding sin. This |
| Tx:21.35 | Faith and | belief become attached to vision, as all the means that once served |
| Tx:21.35 | for sin are dear to you. And so the body has your faith and your | belief. But holiness would set your brother free, removing hatred by |
| Tx:21.36 | Desiring to look upon their brothers in holiness, the power of | belief and faith goes far beyond the body, supporting vision, not |
| Tx:21.38 | mind believes. Thus is the joining of mind and body an inescapable | belief of those who value sin. And so is sacrifice invariably a means |
| Tx:21.40 | But in their seeing, they look past it, as do you. The faith and the | belief you gave it belongs beyond. You gave perception and belief and |
| Tx:21.40 | and the belief you gave it belongs beyond. You gave perception and | belief and faith from mind to body. Let them now be given back to |
| Tx:21.41 | It has no fear to let you feel ashamed. It doubts not your | belief and faith in sin. Its temples do not shake because of this. |
| Tx:21.43 | who have joined their brothers have detached themselves from their | belief that their identity lies in the ego. A holy relationship is |
| Tx:21.43 | is one in which you join with what is part of you in truth. And your | belief in sin has been already shaken, nor are you now entirely |
| Tx:21.49 | and on the sights you choose to see, depends entirely your whole | belief in what you are. Perception is a witness but to this and never |
| Tx:21.56 | Faith and perception and | belief can be misplaced and serve the great deceiver's needs as well |
| Tx:21.56 | at all in madness, nor can it be adjusted to fit its end. Faith and | belief are strong in madness, guiding perception toward what the mind |
| Tx:21.58 | You have come very close to this. Faith and | belief have shifted, and you have asked the question which the ego |
| Tx:21.58 | something that you do not know but must belong to you? Faith and | belief, upheld by reason, cannot fail to lead to changed perception. |
| Tx:21.59 | is yours to give. And so you will not give it, thus maintaining the | belief. For uncorrected error of any kind deceives you about the |
| Tx:21.59 | deny it to yourself and to your brother. And if he shares this same | belief, you both will think that you are damned. This you could spare |
| Tx:21.70 | Do you not see that all your misery comes from the strange | belief that you are powerless? Being helpless is the cost of sin. |
| Tx:21.76 | rest have lost for you. And this imagined difference attests to your | belief that truth may be the enemy you yet may find. Here, then, |
| Tx:22.4 | Think what a holy relationship can teach! Here is | belief in differences undone. Here is the faith in differences |
| Tx:22.19 | all truth meaningless and all illusions real. Such is the power of | belief. It cannot compromise. And faith in innocence is faith in sin |
| Tx:22.19 | It cannot compromise. And faith in innocence is faith in sin if the | belief excludes one living thing and holds it out apart from its |
| Tx:22.20 | the only means by which escape from guilt can be attained, then the | belief in sin must be eternal. Yet reason looks on this another way, |
| Tx:22.21 | in trying to avoid this one decision. It must be made. Faith and | belief can fall to either side, but reason tells you that misery lies |
| Tx:22.24 | that what you made has power to enslave its maker. This is the same | belief that caused the separation. It is the meaningless idea that |
| Tx:22.30 | The ego's whole continuance depends on its | belief you cannot learn this course. Share this belief, and reason |
| Tx:22.30 | depends on its belief you cannot learn this course. Share this | belief, and reason will be unable to see your errors and make way for |
| Tx:22.30 | been an error. The ego's opposition to correction leads to its fixed | belief in sin and disregard of errors. It looks on nothing that can |
| Tx:22.46 | from the truth? And what would you be saved from but what you fear? | Belief in sin needs great defense and at enormous cost. All that the |
| Tx:22.50 | alone. This is the cost of all illusions. Not one but rests on the | belief that you are separate. Not one that does not seem to stand, |
| Tx:22.60 | Will of God is powerless? Is this humility? You do not see what this | belief has done. You see yourself as vulnerable, frail, and easily |
| Tx:22.62 | yourself or hurt yourself without the other feeling pain. And this | belief you want. Yet wherein lies its value except in the desire to |
| Tx:23.1 | who has an enemy, and no one can attack unless he thinks he has. | Belief in enemies is therefore the belief in weakness, and what is |
| Tx:23.1 | attack unless he thinks he has. Belief in enemies is therefore the | belief in weakness, and what is weak is not the Will of God. Being |
| Tx:23.7 | the warlike would remember is not love. War is impossible unless | belief in victory is cherished. Conflict within you must imply that |
| Tx:23.7 | God. Certain it is it has no enemy. Yet just as certain is its fixed | belief it has an enemy that it must overcome and will succeed. |
| Tx:23.8 | is possible. And God thinks otherwise. This is no war—only the mad | belief the Will of God can be attacked and overthrown. You may |
| Tx:23.8 | of God can be attacked and overthrown. You may identify with this | belief, but never will it be more than madness. And fear will reign |
| Tx:23.12 | illusions, struggling to make them different from each other in the | belief the one which conquers will be true. There is no conflict |

| Tx:23.20 | which sets him off from others. This principle evolves from the | belief there is a hierarchy of illusions; some are more valuable and |
| Tx:23.22 | Himself is powerless to overcome. Sin cannot be remitted, being the | belief the Son of God can make mistakes for which his own destruction |
| Tx:23.24 | He be asked about the truth of what has been established for His | belief. His Son can tell Him this, and He has but the choice whether |
| Tx:23.24 | for it or be mistaken. This leads directly to the third preposterous | belief that seems to make chaos eternal. For if God cannot be |

| Tx:23.27 | if the others are accepted, must be true. This seeming law is the | belief you have what you have taken. By this, another's loss becomes |
| Tx:23.32 | if he sees that this is what it is. What protects madness is the | belief that it is true. It is the function of insanity to take the |
| Tx:23.34 | major roles, it seems most powerful. No law of chaos could compel | belief but for the emphasis on form and disregard of content. No one |
| Tx:23.38 | to value some above the others. Yet each one rests as surely on the | belief the laws of chaos are the laws of order as do the others. Each |
| Tx:23.39 | From the | belief in sin, the faith in chaos must follow. It is because it |
| Tx:23.43 | is denied where compromise has been accepted, for compromise is the | belief salvation is impossible. It would maintain you can attack a |

| Tx:24.3 | love's purpose. Love offers everything forever. Hold back but one | belief, one offering, and love is gone because you asked a substitute |
| Tx:24.4 | because conflicting outcomes are impossible. But an unrecognized | belief is a decision to war in secret, where the results of conflict |

| Tx:25.30 | eyes. And therefore it need not be there in yours. Sin is the fixed | belief perception cannot change. What has been damned is damned and |
| Tx:25.42 | His Will be done. In each of you, you see the picture of your own | belief in what the Will of God must be for you. In your forgiveness |
| Tx:25.52 | meaning is insanity. And what is madness cannot be the truth. If one | belief so deeply valued here were true, then every Thought God ever |
| Tx:25.53 | both the Father and the Son. This you believe. Think not that this | belief depends upon the form it takes. Who thinks the world is sane |
| Tx:25.60 | The whole | belief that someone loses but reflects the underlying tenet God must |

| Tx:25.62 | Remember all temptation is but this—a mad | belief that God's insanity would make you sane and give you what you |
| Tx:25.68 | their own confusion and cannot avoid the vengeance that their own | belief in justice must entail. And so they fear the Holy Spirit and |
| Tx:26.6 | it and rejoice with him. Make not his holiness a sacrifice to your | belief in sin. You sacrifice your innocence with his and die each |

| Tx:26.36 | delude himself that this is true and pass from mere imagining into | belief and into madness, quite convinced that where he would prefer |
| Tx:26.42 | by long ago, which cannot be relived. And all of time is but the mad | belief that what is over is still here and now. |
| Tx:26.44 | perceived reality has entered all the world of sick illusions. All | belief in sin, in power of attack, in hurt and harm, in sacrifice and |
| Tx:26.50 | God's answer lies where the | belief in sin must be, for only there can its effects be utterly |

| Tx:26.59 | Sin is belief attack can be projected outside the mind where the | belief arose. Here is the firm conviction that ideas can leave their |

| Tx:26.87 | the other must be seen. You cannot be unfairly treated. The | belief you are is but another form of the idea you are deprived by |
| Tx:27.4 | The power of witness is beyond | belief because it brings conviction in its wake. The witness is |
| Tx:27.9 | These are not sins, but witnesses unto the strange | belief that sin and death are real, and innocence and sin will end |
| Tx:27.16 | prove to him, you will believe. The power of witness comes from your | belief. And everything you say or do or think but testifies to what |
| Tx:27.30 | What can interfere with the awareness of reality is the | belief that there is something there. |
| Tx:27.45 | Only when demonstrated has it been proved and must compel | belief. No one is healed through double messages. If you wish only to |
| Tx:28.30 | sickness is kept carefully protected, cherished, and upheld by firm | belief, lest God should come to bridge the little gap that leads to |
| Tx:28.46 | you perceive within the gap? The seeds of sickness come from the | belief that there is joy in separation, and its giving up would be a |
| Tx:29.16 | to alter it. Yet this but means the mind remains unchanged in its | belief of what the purpose of the body is. |
| Tx:29.54 | An idol is a false impression or a false | belief—some form of anti-Christ which constitutes a gap between the |

| W1:99.5 | that its Source is timeless. Yet it operates in time because of your | belief that time is real. Unshaken does the Holy Spirit look on what |

| W1:135.13 | A healed mind is relieved from the | belief that it must plan, although it cannot know the outcome which |
| W1:139.6 | this prove except the world is mad? Why share its madness in the sad | belief that what is universal here is true? Nothing the world |
| W1:139.9 | teach and demonstrates the oneness of God's Son is unassailed by his | belief he knows not what he is. Today accept Atonement, not to change |
| W1:140.1 | Its forms of healing thus must substitute illusion for illusion. One | belief in sickness takes another form, and so the patient now |
| W1:151.6 | let the Voice for God alone be Judge of what is worthy of your own | belief. |
| W1:154.12 | You have heard this said a hundred ways, a hundred times, and yet | belief is lacking still. But this is sure—until belief is given it, |

| W1:167.4 | is the thought that you are separate from your Creator. It is the | belief conditions change, emotions alternate because of causes you |

| M:8.1 | The | belief in order of difficulties is the basis for the world's |
| M:8.5 | merely because all sickness is illusion. Is it harder to dispel the | belief of the insane in a larger hallucination as opposed to a |

| M:15.3 | judgment and to recognize that it is true. One instant of complete | belief in this, and you will go beyond belief to certainty. One |
| M:15.3 | true. One instant of complete belief in this, and you will go beyond | belief to certainty. One instant out of time can bring time's end. |
| M:16.11 | this is so and have learned that everything but this is magic. All | belief in magic is maintained by just one simple-minded illusion— |

| M:18.3 | screeches, “Guilt is real.” Reality is blotted out as this insane | belief is taken as replacement for God's Word. The body's eyes now |

| Tx:2.42 | all the separated ones make in one way or another. They cannot | believe that a defense which cannot attack is the best defense. This |
| Tx:2.57 | of magic principles. It was the first level of the error to | believe that the body created its own illness. It is a second misstep |
| Tx:2.72 | You | believe that “being afraid” is involuntary, something beyond your |
| Tx:2.73 | is a confusion here which you would do well to look at clearly. You | believe that you are responsible for what you do but not for what you |
| Tx:2.74 | to miscreate or have not allowed me to guide it. It is pointless to | believe that controlling the outcome of mis-thought can result in |
| Tx:2.90 | can literally move mountains. It appears at first glance that to | believe such power about yourself is merely arrogant, but that is not |
| Tx:2.90 | is merely arrogant, but that is not the real reason why you do not | believe it. People prefer to believe that their thoughts cannot exert |
| Tx:2.90 | is not the real reason why you do not believe it. People prefer to | believe that their thoughts cannot exert real control, because they |
| Tx:2.91 | allay guilt but at the cost of rendering thinking impotent. If you | believe that what you think is ineffectual you may cease to be overly |
| Tx:2.95 | another. This is because you have misperceived or miscreated us and | believe in what you have made. You would never have done this if you |
| Tx:2.103 | Any part of the Sonship can | believe in error or incompleteness if he so elects. However, if he |

| Tx:3.14 | than it hurts you,” and feels exonerated in beating a child. Can you | believe that the Father really thinks this way? It is so essential |
| Tx:3.15 | God. He did not create it, and He does not maintain it. God does not | believe in karmic retribution. His Divine Mind does not create that |
| Tx:3.16 | the Garden of Eden. It is also responsible for the fact that you may | believe from time to time that I am misdirecting you. I have made |
| Tx:3.52 | you would want to make anything, you are tacitly implying that you | believe in separation. Knowing, as we have frequently observed, does |
| Tx:3.62 | that what he judged against does not exist. He evidently does not | believe this, or he would not have judged against it. It does not |
| Tx:3.66 | for his authorship. This is the fundamental error of all those who | believe they have usurped the power of God. |
| Tx:3.67 | great cruelty because, being uncertain of their true Authorship, men | believe that their creation was anonymous. This has left them in a |
| Tx:3.72 | for systems of belief by which men live. It is a mistake to | believe that a thought system which is based on lies is weak. Nothing |
| Tx:3.77 | can perceive himself as self-creating, but he cannot do more than | believe it. He cannot make it true. And, as we said before, when you |
| Tx:3.77 | are used to attack ideas which might bring it to light. You still | believe you are images of your own creation. Your minds are split |
| Tx:3.77 | with your Souls on this point, and there is no resolution while you | believe the one thing that is literally inconceivable. That is why |
| Tx:3.80 | light and darkness, knowledge and perception are irreconcilable. To | believe that they can be reconciled is to believe that God and man |
| Tx:3.80 | are irreconcilable. To believe that they can be reconciled is to | believe that God and man can not. Only the oneness of knowledge is |
| Tx:4.7 | share their lessons, they will lack conviction. A good teacher must | believe in the ideas which he professes, but he must meet another |
| Tx:4.7 | which he professes, but he must meet another condition; he must also | believe in the students to whom he offers his ideas. Many stand guard |
| Tx:4.8 | You | believe that if you allow no change to enter into your ego, your Soul |
| Tx:4.10 | theirs. It is pointless to refuse to tolerate change because you | believe you can demonstrate that by doing so the separation has not |
| Tx:4.11 | teacher, and therapist. This goal will not be achieved by those who | believe that they will lose their child or pupil or patient if they |
| Tx:4.12 | but it is not natural for you to want to obey its laws unless you | believe in them. The ego cannot make this choice because of the |
| Tx:4.15 | its doubts. It will be doubtful forever, or rather as long as you | believe in it. You who made it cannot trust it because you know it is |
| Tx:4.16 | able to understand this because it is literally incredible. Do not | believe the incredible now. Any attempt to increase its believability |
| Tx:4.20 | understand their importance to you if I had not once been tempted to | believe in them myself. |

| Tx:4.35 | exist afterwards, after a temporary lapse in ego life. Some actually | believe that the Soul will be punished for this lapse, even though in |
| Tx:4.48 | No one who has experienced the revelation of this can ever fully | believe in the ego again. How can its meager offering to you prevail |
| Tx:4.49 | You who identify with your egos cannot | believe that God loves you. You do not love what you have made, and |
| Tx:4.55 | to protect your higher mind. Who but the insane would undertake to | believe what is not true and then protect this belief at the cost of |
| Tx:4.66 | be wrong because it never attacks. Yours is so distorted that you | believe I was mistaken in choosing you. I assure you this is a |
| Tx:4.68 | attribute of everything that the living God created. Why do you | believe it is harder for me to inspire the dispirited or to stabilize |
| Tx:4.68 | me to inspire the dispirited or to stabilize the unstable? I do not | believe that there is an order of difficulty in miracles; you do. I |
| Tx:4.73 | wanting to learn are inseparable. All learners learn best when they | believe that what they are trying to learn is of value to them. |
| Tx:4.84 | conflicted as long as you are here, or more properly, as long as you | believe that you are here. |
| Tx:4.85 | ego-illusion, but dissociation is always involved or you would not | believe that you are here. In learning to escape from the illusions |
| Tx:4.87 | establishes that you and your ego cannot be identical. You may | believe that you have already accepted the difference, but you are by |
| Tx:4.88 | not because the ego is a separate thing, but because you want to | believe that you are. The ego is a device for maintaining this |
| Tx:5.8 | Thoughts increase by being given away. The more who | believe in them, the stronger they become. Everything is an idea. |
| Tx:5.14 | is perfectly clear, and no one who receives it could ever | believe for one instant that sharing it involves anything but gain. |
| Tx:5.39 | guarantee of its survival. The ego becomes strong in strife. If you | believe there is strife, you will react viciously because the idea of |
| Tx:5.62 | and it speaks for it. Listening to the ego's voice means that you | believe it is possible to attack God. You believe that a part of Him |
| Tx:5.62 | ego's voice means that you believe it is possible to attack God. You | believe that a part of Him has been torn away by you. The classic |
| Tx:5.67 | at all. Delusional ideas are not real thoughts, although you can | believe in them. But you are wrong. The function of thought comes |
| Tx:5.68 | are always a sign that you do not know this. They also show that you | believe you can think apart from God and want to. Every thought |
| Tx:5.68 | by guilt in its continuance. Guilt is inescapable for those who | believe they order their own thought and must therefore obey its |
| Tx:5.74 | made you afraid, you do not appeal to the Higher Court, because you | believe its judgment would be against you. |
| Tx:5.76 | “As ye sow, so shall ye reap” merely means that what you | believe to be worth cultivating you will cultivate in yourself. Your |
| Tx:5.80 | Appeal everything you | believe gladly to God's own Higher Court, because it speaks for Him |
| Tx:5.90 | Do you really | believe you can make a voice that can drown out His? Do you really |
| Tx:5.90 | believe you can make a voice that can drown out His? Do you really | believe that you can devise a thought system which can separate you |
| Tx:5.90 | a thought system which can separate you from His? Do you really | believe that you can plan for your safety and joy better than He can? |
| Tx:5.91 | not raised the dead. Unless the healer heals himself, he does not | believe that there is no order of difficulty in miracles. He has not |
| Tx:5.93 | there need not be. God weeps at the “sacrifice” of His Children, who | believe they are lost to Him. |
| Tx:6.1 | as entirely one's own responsibility. Anger cannot occur unless you | believe that you have been attacked, that [the attack was unjust, |
| Tx:6.2 | attack has no justification; and you are responsible for what you | believe. You have been asked to take me as your model for learning, |
| Tx:6.7 | its destruction does not justify anger. To the extent to which you | believe that it does, you must be accepting false premises and |
| Tx:6.8 | of attack and one which I do want to share with you. If you will | believe it, you will help me to teach it. |
| Tx:6.10 | There can be no justification for the unjustifiable. Do not | believe there is, and do not teach that there is. Remember always |
| Tx:6.10 | is, and do not teach that there is. Remember always that what you | believe you will teach. Believe with me, and we will become equal as |
| Tx:6.10 | that there is. Remember always that what you believe you will teach. | Believe with me, and we will become equal as teachers. Your |
| Tx:6.10 | it to our brothers in the name of the Kingdom of God, but first | believe that it is true for you, or you will teach amiss. |
| Tx:6.24 | is the notion of rejection. As long as you teach this, you still | believe it. This is not as God thinks, and you must think as He |
| Tx:6.26 | referring, what you project you disown and therefore do not | believe is yours. You are excluding yourself by the very statement |
| Tx:6.31 | you will ultimately meet it and know it. The ego would prefer to | believe that this meeting is impossible, yet it is your perception |
| Tx:6.34 | The Holy Spirit uses time but does not | believe in it. Coming from God, He uses everything for good, but He |
| Tx:6.34 | in it. Coming from God, He uses everything for good, but He does not | believe in what is not true. Since the Holy Spirit is in your minds, |
| Tx:6.34 | the Holy Spirit is in your minds, your minds must also be able to | believe only what is true. The Holy Spirit can speak only for this |
| Tx:6.40 | true. From this, which you have made, you have taught yourselves to | believe that you are not what you are. You cannot teach what you have |
| Tx:6.41 | forget that what you teach is teaching you. What you project you | believe. |
| Tx:6.46 | within the Kingdom without love, and since the Kingdom is love, you | believe that you are without it. This enables the ego to regard |
| Tx:6.48 | The ego cannot hear the Holy Spirit, but it does | believe that part of the same mind that made it is against it. It |
| Tx:6.48 | maker. It believes that the best defense is attack and wants you to | believe it. Unless you do believe it you will not side with it, and |
| Tx:6.48 | best defense is attack and wants you to believe it. Unless you do | believe it you will not side with it, and the ego feels badly in need |
| Tx:6.49 | is more real than it is. No one in his right mind could possibly | believe this, and no one in his right mind does believe it. |
| Tx:6.49 | mind could possibly believe this, and no one in his right mind does | believe it. |
| Tx:6.50 | you will see the truth around you and in you, and you will no longer | believe in dreams because they will have no reality for you. |
| Tx:6.57 | taught wrongly, having believed what was not true. You did not | believe in your own perfection. Could God teach you that you had made |
| Tx:6.58 | which frightened them so badly were not real because children | believe in magic. You merely reassure them that they are safe now. |
| Tx:6.70 | a basic fear of retaliation and abandonment. This is because they | believe in attack and rejection, so this is what they perceive and |
| Tx:6.71 | you do not share a thought system, you are weakening it. Those who | believe in it therefore perceive this as an attack on them. This is |
| Tx:6.71 | his thought system, and every thought system centers on what you | believe you are. If the center of the thought system is true, only |
| Tx:6.73 | in others, he is being taught to react to both as if what he does | believe is not true. |
| Tx:6.77 | you are free to think you are. It must, however, be insane to | believe that it is up to you to decide what God's creations are. The |
| Tx:6.89 | it as it is. Since it is whole, you are teaching peace because you | believe in it. The final step will still be taken for you by God, but |
| Tx:6.91 | therefore does engender doubt. You cannot go beyond belief until you | believe fully. |
| Tx:6.94 | will to teach the same thing must be in agreement about what they | believe. |
| Tx:6.95 | The third step, then, is a statement of what you want to | believe and entails a willingness to relinquish everything else. I |
| Tx:7.5 | love to the Kingdom because I believed that was what I was. What you | believe you are determines your gifts, and if God created you by |
| Tx:7.10 | by increasing and integrates by extending. What you project you | believe. This is an immutable law of the mind in this world as well |
| Tx:7.12 | Those who are against freedom | believe that its outcome will hurt them, which cannot be true. But |
| Tx:7.14 | the law which prevails inside it is adapted to “what you project you | believe.” This is its teaching form, since outside the Kingdom |
| Tx:7.14 | what you are from what you have projected onto others and therefore | believe they are. In the Kingdom there is no teaching or learning, |
| Tx:7.29 | Kingdom is merely to focus your full attention on it. As long as you | believe that you can attend to what is not true, you are accepting |
| Tx:7.31 | means to make joyous. The dispirited are depressed, because they | believe that they are literally “without the Spirit,” which is an |
| Tx:7.32 | what already is and perceived as a means for establishing it. To | believe this is possible is to believe you can do it. This can only |
| Tx:7.32 | as a means for establishing it. To believe this is possible is to | believe you can do it. This can only be the voice of the ego. |
| Tx:7.35 | ego tries to use all abilities, since its goal is always to make you | believe that you are in opposition. |
| Tx:7.40 | must be so, since you can act in accordance with what you do not | believe. To do this, however, will weaken you as teachers and |
| Tx:7.40 | because, as has been repeatedly emphasized, you teach what you do | believe. An inconsistent lesson will be poorly taught and poorly |
| Tx:7.42 | he can offer as a gift to someone who does not have it. He may | believe that the gift comes from God to Him, but it is quite evident |
| Tx:7.55 | direct your thinking as you will is part of its power. If you do not | believe you can do this, you have denied the power of your thought |
| Tx:7.57 | afford to know anything. Knowledge is total, and the ego does not | believe in totality. This unbelief is its origin and, while the ego |
| Tx:7.59 | illusions, but it does follow that if it makes illusions it will | believe in them, because that is how it made them. |
| Tx:7.61 | if you had not believed the untrue. You cannot deny that, when you | believe something, you have made it true for you. |
| Tx:7.62 | When you | believe what God does not know, your thought seems to contradict His, |
| Tx:7.62 | are attacking Him. We have repeatedly emphasized that the ego does | believe it can attack God and tries to persuade you that you have |
| Tx:7.63 | only as long as you do not recognize what is true.] While you | believe that two totally contradictory thought systems share truth, |
| Tx:7.64 | fact. They are problems of understanding, since they mean that you | believe what you can understand is up to you to decide. The ego |
| Tx:7.65 | in the universe [of thought] as if it were weak, because you do not | believe you are part of it. |
| Tx:7.77 | who attack do not know they are blessed. They attack because they | believe they are deprived. Give therefore of your abundance and teach |
| Tx:7.78 | you feel deprived of it, and by projecting your own rejection, you | believe that others are taking it from you. One must be fearful if he |
| Tx:7.79 | Being the part of your mind which does not | believe it is responsible for itself and being without allegiance to |
| Tx:7.86 | are afraid that their projections will return and hurt them. They do | believe they have blotted their projections from their own minds, but |
| Tx:7.86 | have blotted their projections from their own minds, but they also | believe their projections are trying to creep back into them. That is |
| Tx:7.98 | which is total confusion about everything. Yet you do not really | believe this, or you could not possibly maintain it. If you really |
| Tx:7.99 | of what is in your mind depend at any given moment on what you | believe about your mind. Whatever these beliefs may be, they are the |
| Tx:7.102 | demonstrate the obvious to yourself. It is not obvious to you. You | believe that doing the opposite of God's Will can be better for you. |
| Tx:7.102 | doing the opposite of God's Will can be better for you. You also | believe that it is possible to do the opposite of God's Will. |
| Tx:7.102 | that it is possible to do the opposite of God's Will. Therefore, you | believe that an impossible choice is open to you and one which is |
| Tx:8.12 | them apart? Can you ask the part of your mind that taught you to | believe they are the same to teach you the difference between them? |
| Tx:8.25 | When you are not at peace, it can only be because you do not | believe you are in Him. Yet He is all in all. His peace is complete, |
| Tx:8.35 | Dissociation is not a solution; it is a delusion. The delusional | believe that truth will assail them, and so they do not see it, |
| Tx:8.53 | belief that attack can get you something you want. If you did not | believe this, the idea of attack would have no appeal for you. When |
| Tx:8.55 | harmful to you. If you use it only to reach the minds of those who | believe they are bodies and teach them through the body that this is |
| Tx:8.97 | No mind can | believe that its will is stronger than God's. If, then, a mind |
| Tx:8.104 | of reality is fearful, and fear cannot be created. As long as you | believe that fear is possible, you will not create. Opposing orders |
| Tx:8.110 | him is your faith in yourself. If you would know God and His Answer, | believe in me whose faith in you cannot be shaken. Can you ask of the |
| Tx:8.110 | shaken. Can you ask of the Holy Spirit truly and doubt your brother? | Believe his words are true because of the truth which is in him. You |
| Tx:8.112 | you extend it. You will not trust the guidance of the Holy Spirit or | believe that it is for you unless you hear it in others. It must be |
| Tx:8.114 | Believe in your brothers because I believe in you, and you will learn | |
| Tx:8.114 | Believe in your brothers because I | believe in you, and you will learn that my belief in you is |
| Tx:8.114 | in you, and you will learn that my belief in you is justified. | Believe in me by believing in them for the sake of what God gave |
| Tx:8.115 | To disbelieve is to side against or to attack. To | believe is to accept and to side with. To believe is not to be |
| Tx:8.115 | against or to attack. To believe is to accept and to side with. To | believe is not to be credulous but to accept and appreciate. What you |
| Tx:8.115 | is not to be credulous but to accept and appreciate. What you do not | believe, you do not appreciate, and you cannot be grateful for what |
| Tx:8.117 | value on what you receive and have priced it by what you give. To | believe that it is possible to get much for little is to believe that |
| Tx:8.117 | give. To believe that it is possible to get much for little is to | believe that you can bargain with God. God's laws are always fair and |
| Tx:9.7 | from love. Any attempt you make to correct a brother means that you | believe correction by you is possible, and this can only be the |
| Tx:9.9 | error, and do not let your perception rest upon it, for you will | believe what your perception holds. Accept as true only what your |
| Tx:9.14 | any belief in its realness enter your minds at all, or you will also | believe that you must undo what you have made in order to be |
| Tx:9.19 | or fearful, pretty or ugly, but no one calls them true. Children may | believe them, and so for a while the tales are true for them. Yet |
| Tx:9.21 | meaningless. The unhealed healer cannot do this, because he does not | believe it. |
| Tx:9.22 | a revolt against this concept, but to revolt against it is still to | believe in it. The form of the revolt, then, is different but not the |
| Tx:9.57 | To accept your littleness is arrogant, because it means that you | believe your evaluation of yourself is truer than God's. |
| Tx:9.59 | as a means to regain eternity. You cannot do this as long as you | believe that anything which happens to you is caused by factors |
| Tx:9.61 | you from beyond it because, being in God, you encompass everything. | Believe this, and you will realize how much is up to you. When |
| Tx:9.73 | not make such an insane decision. You make it only because you still | believe that it can get you something you want. It follows, then, |
| Tx:9.76 | is the awareness that no one is separate, and so no one is sick. To | believe that a Son of God can be sick is to believe that part of God |
| Tx:9.76 | so no one is sick. To believe that a Son of God can be sick is to | believe that part of God can suffer. Love cannot suffer, because it |
| Tx:9.77 | remind him of his wholeness and remember your Creator with him? To | believe a Son of God is sick is to worship the same idol he does. God |
| Tx:9.81 | make, but you are. You would save them and serve them, because you | believe that they made you. You think they are your father because |
| Tx:9.82 | Very simply, then, you may | believe you are afraid of nothingness, but you are really afraid of |
| Tx:9.85 | irreconcilable. If God created you perfect, you are perfect. If you | believe you can be sick, you have placed other gods before Him. God |
| Tx:9.93 | not. No one can really do this, but that you can think you can and | believe you have is beyond dispute. |
| Tx:9.94 | that to deny God will inevitably result in projection, and you will | believe that others, and not yourself, have done this to you. You |
| Tx:9.94 | the message you give, because it is the message you want. You may | believe that you judge your brothers by the messages they give you, |
| Tx:9.105 | Fatherhood must be acknowledged if the real Son is to be known. You | believe that the sick things which you have made are your real |
| Tx:9.105 | sick things which you have made are your real creations, because you | believe that the sick images you perceive are the Sons of God. |
| Tx:10.6 | my Father are one with you, for you are part of us. Do you really | believe that part of God can be missing or lost to Him? |
| Tx:10.8 | simply because you have tried to limit what He created, and so you | believe that all creation is limited. How, then, could you know your |
| Tx:10.8 | not permit contradiction. What holds for God holds for you. If you | believe you are absent from God, you will believe that He is absent |
| Tx:10.8 | God holds for you. If you believe you are absent from God, you will | believe that He is absent from you. |
| Tx:10.14 | have been extended. You are afraid to know God's Will because you | believe it is not yours. This belief is your whole sickness and your |
| Tx:10.36 | Son. But come wholly without condemnation, for otherwise you will | believe that the door is barred and you cannot enter. The door is not |
| Tx:10.41 | has the power to do anything. The ego is fearful to you because you | believe this. Yet the truth is very simple: |
| Tx:10.45 | be independent of you. He has included you in His Autonomy. Can you | believe that autonomy is meaningful apart from Him? The belief in ego |
| Tx:10.52 | Upheld by fear, this is what the ego would have you | believe. Yet God's Son is not insane and cannot believe it. Let him |
| Tx:10.52 | ego would have you believe. Yet God's Son is not insane and cannot | believe it. Let him but recognize it, and he will not accept it. For |
| Tx:10.52 | insane would choose fear in place of love, and only the insane could | believe that love can be gained by attack. But the sane know that |
| Tx:10.59 | It is impossible not to | believe what you see, but it is equally impossible to see what you do |
| Tx:10.59 | what you see, but it is equally impossible to see what you do not | believe. Perceptions are built up on the basis of experience, and |
| Tx:10.59 | are fixed that perceptions stabilize. In effect, then, what you | believe, you do see. That is what I meant when I said, “Blessed are |
| Tx:10.59 | I meant when I said, “Blessed are ye who have not seen and still | believe,” for those who believe in the resurrection will see it. The |
| Tx:10.59 | “Blessed are ye who have not seen and still believe,” for those who | believe in the resurrection will see it. The resurrection is the |
| Tx:10.60 | clearly because you are interpreting against it and therefore do not | believe it. And if belief determines perception, you do not perceive |
| Tx:10.62 | And can you perceive it in yourself and not perceive it in God? | Believe in the resurrection because it has been accomplished, and it |
| Tx:10.66 | the Son of God as crucified, you are asleep. And as long as you | believe that you can crucify him, you are only having nightmares. You |
| Tx:10.67 | that I have done them unto you. Do not set limits on what you | believe I can do through you, or you will not accept what I can do |
| Tx:10.68 | mine. For your part must be like mine if you learn it of me. If you | believe that yours is limited, you are limiting mine. There is no |
| Tx:10.71 | illusion and reality. For perceptions cannot be partly true. If you | believe in truth and illusion, you cannot tell which is true. To |
| Tx:10.73 | To | believe that you can perceive the real world is to believe that you |
| Tx:10.73 | To believe that you can perceive the real world is to | believe that you can know yourself. You can know God because it is |
| Tx:10.74 | nothing more than that only reality is true is necessary. But do you | believe it? When you have perceived the real world, you will |
| Tx:10.74 | have perceived the real world, you will recognize that you did not | believe it. Yet the swiftness with which your new and only real |
| Tx:10.80 | The Holy Spirit will answer every specific problem as long as you | believe that problems are specific. His answer is both many and one, |
| Tx:10.80 | are specific. His answer is both many and one, as long as you | believe that the one is many. Realize that you are afraid of His |
| Tx:10.81 | You are refusing to ask because you | believe that asking is taking, and you do not perceive it as sharing. |
| Tx:10.82 | Little Children of God, you do not understand your Father. You | believe in a world that takes, because you believe that you can get |
| Tx:10.82 | your Father. You believe in a world that takes, because you | believe that you can get by taking. And by that perception, you have |
| Tx:10.83 | Child of God, you are asking only for what I promised you. Do you | believe I would deceive you? The Kingdom of Heaven is within you. |
| Tx:10.83 | believe I would deceive you? The Kingdom of Heaven is within you. | Believe that the truth is in me, for I know that it is in you. God's |
| Tx:11.1 | error real, and the way to do this is very simple. If you want to | believe in error, you would have to make it real because it is not |
| Tx:11.1 | because it is not true. But truth is real in its own right, and to | believe in truth, you do not have to do anything. Understand that you |
| Tx:11.17 | recognizes that he does not know what his perceptions mean. Yet you | believe that you do know. Little children, you are hiding your heads |
| Tx:11.28 | only answer. Never lose sight of this, and never allow yourself to | believe even for an instant that there is another answer. For you |
| Tx:11.34 | only in the mind of its maker along with his real salvation. Do not | believe it is outside of yourself, for only by recognizing where it |
| Tx:11.40 | search for your home whether you know where it is or not. If you | believe it is outside yourself, the search will be futile, for you |
| Tx:11.40 | is not. You do not know how to look within yourself, for you do not | believe your home is there. Yet the Holy Spirit knows it for you, and |
| Tx:11.41 | treasure, you will sell everything else to purchase it. And you will | believe that you have purchased it because you have sold everything |
| Tx:11.43 | the situation you have made. You use attack to do so because you | believe that attack was successful in weakening you. |
| Tx:11.65 | As long as you | believe you have two functions, so long will you need correction. For |
| Tx:11.65 | you see? Of whose presence would you be convinced? For you will | believe in what you manifest, and as you look out, so will you see |
| Tx:11.66 | integration, and if it is split and wants to keep the split, it will | believe it has one goal by making it one. |
| Tx:11.68 | not within. This gives it an illusion of integrity and enables it to | believe that it is pursuing one goal. As long as you perceive the |
| Tx:11.69 | accepted opposition there, having sought it there. But do not then | believe that the witnesses for opposition are true, for they attest |
| Tx:11.75 | God to Whom treachery is impossible, but it is a traitor to you who | believe you have been treacherous to your Father. That is why the |
| Tx:11.75 | not from the ego because, by confusing yourself with the ego, you | believe that you want death. And from what you want, God does not |
| Tx:11.77 | Do you really | believe that you can kill the Son of God? The Father has hidden His |
| Tx:11.87 | Father was lost, since only those who do not understand Him could | believe it. |
| Tx:11.91 | spread along the past behind you and will disappear. As long as you | believe the Son of God is guilty, you will walk along this carpet, |
| Tx:11.98 | notion that attack is salvation. And you who cherish guilt must also | believe it, for how else but by identifying with the ego could you |
| Tx:12.5 | In the calm light of truth, let us recognize that you | believe you have crucified God's Son. You have not admitted to this |
| Tx:12.5 | the ego does want to kill you, and if you identify with it, you must | believe its goal is yours. |
| Tx:12.7 | seen its results and you still lack faith in it. You must, then, | believe that by not learning the course, you are protecting yourself. |
| Tx:12.8 | the alternative with gladness. You are afraid of redemption, and you | believe it will kill you. Make no mistake about the depth of your |
| Tx:12.8 | will kill you. Make no mistake about the depth of your fear. For you | believe that in the presence of truth you will turn on yourself and |
| Tx:12.11 | even upon the ego's darkest cornerstone without fear if you did not | believe that, without the ego, you would find within yourself |
| Tx:12.12 | to look even upon your savage wish to kill God's Son if you did not | believe that it saves you from love. For this wish caused the |
| Tx:12.12 | Father would impel you to answer His call and leap into Heaven. You | believe that attack is salvation to prevent you from this. For still |
| Tx:12.14 | it would sweep you away from yourself and make you little. For you | believe that magnitude lies in defiance and that attack is grandeur. |
| Tx:12.21 | live in the light, and it must seek a place of darkness where it can | believe it is where it is not. God did not allow this to happen. Yet |
| Tx:12.24 | reality to establish yours. If their reality is questioned, you | believe that yours is. For you believe that attack is your reality |
| Tx:12.24 | If their reality is questioned, you believe that yours is. For you | believe that attack is your reality and that your destruction is the |
| Tx:12.48 | continuous and make them so for you. But do not be deceived and then | believe that this is how it is, for to believe that reality is what |
| Tx:12.48 | do not be deceived and then believe that this is how it is, for to | believe that reality is what you would have it be according to your |
| Tx:13.11 | its laws, for they are laws of punishment. And those who follow them | believe that they are guilty, and so they must condemn. Between the |
| Tx:13.14 | other, and guilt has become as true for you as innocence. You do not | believe the Son of God is guiltless because you see the past and see |
| Tx:13.15 | himself and make himself guilty is insane. In any form, in anyone, | believe this not. For sin and condemnation are the same, and the |
| Tx:13.18 | too afraid to look upon the light within. Within you is not what you | believe is there and what you put your faith in. |
| Tx:13.22 | those who suffer guilt will attempt to displace it, because they do | believe in it. Yet, though they suffer, they will not look within and |
| Tx:13.25 | As long as you | believe that guilt is justified in any way in anyone whatever he may |
| Tx:13.25 | find Atonement. The end of guilt will never come as long as you | believe there is a reason for it. For you must learn that guilt is |
| Tx:13.42 | within you, joining your minds with His, cannot be broken. You may | believe you want it broken, and this belief does interfere with the |
| Tx:13.52 | And while you think it possible to learn to do this, you will not | believe all that is possible to learn to do. |
| Tx:13.54 | happy. The Holy Spirit cannot teach without this contrast, for you | believe that misery is happiness. This has so confused you that you |
| Tx:13.55 | already burdened or you would not have sought another. You will | believe that nothing is of value and will value it. A little piece of |
| Tx:13.62 | was? This simple lesson holds the key to the dark door which you | believe is locked forever. You made this door of nothing and behind |
| Tx:13.65 | pain of guilt and do not look upon it as having value in itself. You | believe that guilt and guiltlessness are both of value, each |
| Tx:13.73 | of. Those who accept the Atonement are invulnerable. But those who | believe they are guilty will respond to guilt because they think it |
| Tx:13.73 | is salvation and will not refuse to see it and side with it. [They | believe that increasing guilt is self-protection.] And they will fail |
| Tx:13.74 | All this arises because they do not | believe that what they want is good. Yet will was given them because |
| Tx:13.86 | of your brother's guiltlessness shining within him while you still | believe it is not there. His guiltlessness is your Atonement. Grant |
| Tx:14.13 | Remember for everyone your Father's power that He has given him. | Believe not that you cannot teach His perfect peace. Stand not |
| Tx:14.25 | cannot know this, for by hiding truth in fear, you see no reason to | believe the more you look at fear, the less you see it, and the |
| Tx:14.52 | for you are much too confused either to recognize love or to | believe that everything else is nothing but a need for love. You are |
| Tx:14.53 | the content must be. Otherwise, it will attack the form. You who | believe you understand something of the dynamics of the mind, let me |
| Tx:14.62 | each one for the bright lesson He has learned for you. Never | believe that any lesson you have learned apart from Him means |
| Tx:15.4 | the ego aims at death and dissolution as an end, it does not | believe it. The goal of death, which it craves for you, leaves it |
| Tx:15.7 | advertise its final threat, for it would have its worshipers still | believe that it can offer the escape from it. But the belief in guilt |
| Tx:15.7 | the future. For no one who considers himself as deserving hell can | believe that punishment will end in peace. |
| Tx:15.24 | think you are and represents the value that you put upon yourself. | Believe the little can content you, and by limiting yourself, you |
| Tx:15.35 | This course is not beyond immediate learning unless you prefer to | believe that what God wills takes time. And this means only that you |
| Tx:15.41 | perfect communication that makes the holy instant what it is. You | believe that it is possible to harbor thoughts you would not share |
| Tx:15.45 | do not know what anything means. You are afraid of this because you | believe that without the ego all would be chaos. Yet I assure you |
| Tx:15.46 | is the source of guilt, and to appeal to it for salvation is to | believe you are alone. To be alone is to be guilty. For to experience |
| Tx:15.47 | to God, Who knows no special love, how can you understand it? To | believe that special relationships, with special love, can offer you |
| Tx:15.58 | satisfaction in gratifying your needs as you perceive them, you must | believe that strength comes from another, and what you gain he loses. |
| Tx:15.59 | You do not find it difficult to | believe that, when another calls on God for love, your call remains |
| Tx:15.72 | What releases him from guilt is “bad,” because he would no longer | believe that bodies communicate, and so he would be “gone.” |
| Tx:15.73 | they seek relief from guilt by increasing it in the other. For they | believe that this decreases it in them. The other seems always to be |
| Tx:15.75 | teach through fear. And how can He communicate with you while you | believe that to communicate is to make yourself alone? It is clearly |
| Tx:15.75 | to communicate is to make yourself alone? It is clearly insane to | believe that by communicating you will be abandoned. And yet you do |
| Tx:15.75 | believe that by communicating you will be abandoned. And yet you do | believe it. For you think that your minds must be kept private or you |
| Tx:15.76 | of the ego's plan to establish its own autonomy. As long as you | believe that to be with a body is companionship, you will be |
| Tx:15.77 | It is the Holy Spirit's teaching function to instruct those who | believe that communication is damnation that communication is |
| Tx:15.83 | communication, for He does not share it with you. It is only you who | believe that it is understandable. |
| Tx:15.95 | one you do not want, they go together. The idea is simply this—you | believe that it is possible to be host to the ego or hostage to God. |
| Tx:15.95 | This is the choice you think you have, and the decision which you | believe that you must make. |
| Tx:15.97 | As host to the ego, you | believe that you can give all your guilt away whatever you think and |
| Tx:15.98 | then, has God become to you, and how great a sacrifice do you | believe His love demands! For total love would demand total |
| Tx:15.104 | You who | believe that sacrifice is love must learn that sacrifice is |
| Tx:16.13 | clearly been accomplished through your willingness, as long as you | believe that you must understand it or else it is not real. |
| Tx:16.14 | lack of understanding is a loss to you, and so you are unwilling to | believe that what has happened is true. But can you really believe |
| Tx:16.14 | to believe that what has happened is true. But can you really | believe that all that has happened, even though you do not understand |
| Tx:16.22 | you not have faith in what you have so diligently taught yourself to | believe? Yet remember how much care you have exerted in choosing its |
| Tx:16.23 | outside of you. You could never have taught freedom unless you did | believe in it. And it must be that what you taught came from |
| Tx:16.44 | considers it bizarre to love and hate together, and even those who | believe that hate is sin merely feel guilty and do not correct it. |
| Tx:16.46 | He denied. It is essential to the preservation of the ego that you | believe this specialness is not hell, but Heaven. For the ego would |
| Tx:17.3 | is that there are some things you would withhold from truth. You | believe that truth cannot deal with them only because you would keep |
| Tx:17.8 | world and this is so little and so easy to cross that you could not | believe it is the meeting place of worlds so different. Yet this |
| Tx:17.35 | gift is given you for your damnation, and if you take it, you will | believe that you are damned. You cannot have the frame without the |
| Tx:17.48 | was there to accept the relationship, why would you now not still | believe that He is there to purify what He has taken under His |
| Tx:17.51 | hand to walk together along a road far more familiar than you now | believe. Is it not certain that you will remember a goal unchanged |
| Tx:17.64 | witnesses to your lack of faith. They demonstrate that you did not | believe that the situation and the problem were in the same place. |
| Tx:17.79 | and you had faith in it, for no one accepts what he does not | believe is real. Your purpose has not changed and will not change, |
| Tx:18.4 | You who | believe that God is fear made but one substitution. It has taken many |
| Tx:18.7 | depart from you. Inward is sanity; insanity is outside you. You but | believe it is the other way; that truth is outside and error and |
| Tx:18.27 | hold mine, for when you joined each other you were not alone. Do you | believe that I would leave you in the darkness you agreed to leave |
| Tx:18.34 | God did not create His dwelling-place unworthy of Him. And if you | believe He cannot enter where He wills to be, you must be interfering |
| Tx:18.35 | It is impossible to make arrogant preparations for holiness and not | believe that it is up to you to establish the conditions for peace. |
| Tx:18.40 | everything that is natural and easy for you impossible. What you | believe to be impossible will be if God so wills it, but you will |
| Tx:18.40 | if God so wills it, but you will remain quite unaware of it. If you | believe the holy instant is difficult for you, it is because you have |
| Tx:18.45 | dream through which He can spread joy to thousands on thousands who | believe that love is fear, not happiness. Let Him fulfill the |
| Tx:18.46 | to experience fear alone or to attempt to deal with it alone. Never | believe that this is necessary or even possible. Yet just as this is |
| Tx:18.68 | do nothing” is a statement of allegiance, a truly undivided loyalty. | Believe it for just one instant, and you will accomplish more than is |
| Tx:18.89 | remain guilt's messenger and will act as it directs as long as you | believe that guilt is real. For the reality of guilt is the illusion |
| Tx:19.30 | how to look on time differently and see beyond it, but not while you | believe in sin. In error, yes; for this can be corrected by the mind. |
| Tx:19.31 | When you are tempted to | believe that sin is real, remember this: If sin is real, both God and |
| Tx:19.31 | wills to destroy Him and has the power to do so. Is it not easier to | believe that you have been mistaken than to believe in this? |
| Tx:19.31 | so. Is it not easier to believe that you have been mistaken than to | believe in this? |
| Tx:19.32 | While you | believe that your reality or your brother's is bounded by a body, you |
| Tx:19.32 | that your reality or your brother's is bounded by a body, you will | believe in sin. While you believe that bodies can unite, you will |
| Tx:19.32 | brother's is bounded by a body, you will believe in sin. While you | believe that bodies can unite, you will find guilt attractive and |
| Tx:19.32 | believe that bodies can unite, you will find guilt attractive and | believe that sin is precious. For the belief that bodies limit mind |
| Tx:19.57 | is not real. The body does appear to be the symbol of sin while you | believe that it can get you what you want. While you believe that it |
| Tx:19.57 | sin while you believe that it can get you what you want. While you | believe that it can give you pleasure, you will also believe that it |
| Tx:19.57 | want. While you believe that it can give you pleasure, you will also | believe that it can bring you pain. |
| Tx:19.60 | the value that you think peace would rob you of. This is what you | believe that it would dispossess and leave you homeless. And it is |
| Tx:19.75 | Hear not its madness, and | believe not the impossible is true. Forget not that the ego has |
| Tx:19.75 | in solemn celebration of the ego's rule. Not one but must | believe that yielding to the attraction of guilt is the escape from |
| Tx:19.81 | and lamented by every mourner who looks upon it as himself. You who | believe you have condemned the Son of God to this are arrogant. But |
| Tx:19.96 | of your will. Look upon it open-eyed and you will nevermore | believe that you are at the mercy of things beyond you, forces you |
| Tx:20.20 | you in the world. And to this world must you adjust, as long as you | believe this picture is outside and has you at its mercy. This world |
| Tx:20.24 | of what is totally bereft of judgment? And if you have, would you | believe the answer and adjust to it as if it were the truth? The |
| Tx:20.74 | recognized for what they are. This is the healing and the remedy. | Believe them not, and they are gone. And all you need to do is |
| Tx:21.6 | They do not understand the lessons keep them blind. This they do not | believe. And so they keep the world they learned to “see” in their |
| Tx:21.33 | to illusions does not lack power, for by it does the Son of God | believe that he is powerless. Thus is he faithless to himself, but |
| Tx:21.37 | Those who | believe in sin must think the Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for |
| Tx:21.42 | your eyes will light on sin, and God will strike you blind. This you | believe, and so you do not look. Yet this is not the ego's hidden |
| Tx:21.50 | worthlessness, and feelings of impermanence and unreality. You will | believe that you are helpless prey to forces far beyond your own |
| Tx:21.50 | made directs your destiny. For this will be your faith. But never | believe because it is your faith it makes reality. |
| Tx:21.59 | help. Yet if you will not accept the help you call for, you will not | believe that it is yours to give. And so you will not give it, thus |
| Tx:21.62 | insane to listen to it. But the insane know not their will. For they | believe they see the body and let their madness tell them it is real. |
| Tx:21.70 | requirement that it demands to be believed. Only the helpless could | believe in it. Enormity has no appeal save to the little. And only |
| Tx:21.70 | Enormity has no appeal save to the little. And only those who first | believe that they are little could see attraction there. Treachery to |
| Tx:21.71 | of God is powerless. And those who see themselves as helpless must | believe that they are not the Son of God. What can they be except his |
| Tx:21.74 | faith in sin without an enemy. Who that believes in sin would dare | believe he has no enemy? Could he admit that no one made him |
| Tx:22.5 | have a different will. Yet if you are his will, what you must then | believe is that you are not yourself. You can indeed believe this, |
| Tx:22.5 | you must then believe is that you are not yourself. You can indeed | believe this, and you do. And you have faith in this and see much |
| Tx:22.8 | What could be secret from God's Will? Yet you | believe that you have secrets. What could your secrets be except |
| Tx:22.19 | other in every way, in every instance, and without exception. To | believe that one exception can exist is to confuse what is the same |
| Tx:22.25 | your Creator and with a will opposed to His. For only if you would | believe His Son could be His enemy does it seem possible that what |
| Tx:22.32 | its church is built and where its worshipers are bound to bodies and | believe the body's freedom is their own. |
| Tx:22.36 | you would attack except what you associate with his body, which you | believe can sin? Beyond his errors is his holiness and your |
| Tx:22.51 | will seek for it where he believes it is and can be found. He will | believe it possible of mind or body, and he will make the other serve |
| Tx:22.62 | know His power is yours. But you will not remember this while you | believe attack of any kind means anything. It is unjustified in any |
| Tx:23.2 | How strange indeed becomes this war against yourself! You will | believe that everything you use for sin can hurt you and become your |
| Tx:23.7 | in victory is cherished. Conflict within you must imply that you | believe the ego has the power to be victorious. Why else would you |
| Tx:23.9 | beliefs converge upon the body, the ego's chosen home, which you | believe is yours. You meet at a mistake—an error in your |
| Tx:23.11 | in the body's life, and if you think you are a body, you will | believe you have forgotten it. Yet truth can never be forgotten by |
| Tx:23.24 | the Creator of reality must be; what He must think and what He must | believe; and how He must respond, believing it. It is not seen as |
| Tx:23.31 | He must have this substitute for love and kill you both. You who | believe you walk in sanity, with feet on solid ground and through a |
| Tx:23.36 | You would maintain and think it true that you do not | believe these senseless laws nor act upon them. And when you look at |
| Tx:23.36 | you look at what they say, they cannot be believed. Brothers, you do | believe them. For how else could you perceive the form they take with |
| Tx:23.36 | with content such as this? Can any form of this be tenable? Yet you | believe them for the form they take and do not recognize the content. |
| Tx:23.44 | it makes no compromise. Yet it seems difficult to those who still | believe that compromise is possible. They do not see that, if it is, |
| Tx:23.45 | Those who | believe that peace can be defended and that attack is justified on |
| Tx:23.49 | to create unto His Son because it is His own. It is not sinful to | believe the function of the Son is murder, but it is insanity. What |
| Tx:24.1 | He wills to be? Peace will be yours because it is His Will. Can you | believe a shadow can hold back the Will that holds the universe |
| Tx:24.2 | make. For a decision is a conclusion based on everything that you | believe. It is the outcome of belief and follows it as surely as does |
| Tx:24.43 | on still with joy. Yet is it joy to look upon decay and madness and | believe this crumbling thing, with flesh already loosened from the |
| Tx:24.61 | You who | believe it easier to see your brother's body than his holiness, be |
| Tx:25.2 | to recognize Him everywhere. Except in bodies. And as long as they | believe they are in bodies, where they think they are He cannot be. |
| Tx:25.5 | you, you are manifest in what you see. Behold the body, and you will | believe that you are there. And every body that you look upon reminds |
| Tx:25.8 | Since you | believe that you are separate, Heaven presents itself to you as |
| Tx:25.21 | may see His Son as one and thank his Father as He thanks you. Nor | believe that all His praise is given not to you. For what you give is |
| Tx:25.23 | is in strict accord with vision's fundamental law: you see what you | believe is there, and you believe it there because you want it there. |
| Tx:25.23 | vision's fundamental law: you see what you believe is there, and you | believe it there because you want it there. Perception has no other |
| Tx:25.37 | upon the other for whatever sense it seems to have. And no one could | believe in one unless the other were the truth, for each attests the |
| Tx:25.38 | have hurt yourself and made your Self your “enemy.” And now you must | believe you are not you but something alien to yourself and |
| Tx:25.42 | will you understand His love for you; through your attack | believe He hates you, thinking Heaven must be hell. Look once again |
| Tx:25.51 | would not be difficult for you. For it is this that you do not | believe. Yet there is nothing else you could believe if you but |
| Tx:25.51 | is this that you do not believe. Yet there is nothing else you could | believe if you but looked at what it really is. |
| Tx:25.53 | with the mind Whose Thought created him. And if he chooses to | believe one thought opposed to truth, he has decided he is not his |
| Tx:25.53 | and sanity must lie apart from both the Father and the Son. This you | believe. Think not that this belief depends upon the form it takes. |
| Tx:25.55 | Test everything that you | believe against this one requirement. And understand that everything |
| Tx:25.55 | Love is the basis for a world perceived as wholly mad to sinners who | believe theirs is the way to sanity. But sin is equally insane within |
| Tx:25.56 | and where you can be free of place and time and all that you | believe must limit you. The Son of God cannot be bound by time nor |
| Tx:25.60 | and destruction be the total cost of any gain at all. You who | believe that God is mad, look carefully at this and understand that |
| Tx:25.63 | take it from you without your willingness. For if He did, you would | believe He wrested it from you against your will. And so you would |
| Tx:25.64 | is asked of you. What but a little faith remains to those who still | believe in sin? What could they know of Heaven and the justice of the |
| Tx:25.67 | perceive it is not true? It is extremely hard for those who still | believe sin meaningful to understand the Holy Spirit's justice. |
| Tx:25.68 | They must | believe He shares their own confusion and cannot avoid the vengeance |
| Tx:25.68 | torn from the “fires” of Heaven by God's own angry hand. They do | believe that Heaven is hell and are afraid of love. And deep |
| Tx:25.71 | who think that all of this is true? Could He, in justice and in love | believe in your confusion you have much to give? You are not asked to |
| Tx:25.86 | that you perceive and leave you fair to no one. Not one right do you | believe you have. And bitterness, with vengeance justified and mercy |
| Tx:26.14 | You who | believe it safe to give but some mistakes to be corrected while you |
| Tx:26.15 | then can there be no problems that justice cannot solve. But you | believe that some injustices are fair and good and necessary to |
| Tx:26.31 | quite meaningless to the real Teacher of the world. Yet since you do | believe in [its reality], why should you waste it going nowhere when |
| Tx:26.33 | To you who still | believe you live in time and know not it is gone, the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:26.44 | Anything in this world that you | believe is good and valuable and worth striving for can hurt you and |
| Tx:26.44 | prefers and find the safety that the truth alone can give? Who can | believe illusions are the same and still maintain that even one is |
| Tx:26.60 | can wish to be deceived but cannot make it be what it is not. And to | believe ideas can leave their source is to invite illusions to be |
| Tx:26.62 | to them all as one. And what is one to Him must be the same. If you | believe what is the same is different, you but deceive yourself. What |
| Tx:26.69 | from one another, and this space you see as time because you still | believe you are external to each other. This makes trust impossible. |
| Tx:26.69 | external to each other. This makes trust impossible. And you cannot | believe that trust would settle every problem now. Thus do you think |
| Tx:26.88 | for your own attack upon the Son of God you seek? Is it not safer to | believe that you are innocent of this and victimized despite your |
| Tx:27.8 | could there be that will endure? Are not the frail entitled to | believe that every stolen scrap of pleasure is their righteous |
| Tx:27.16 | separation is without effect. What you would prove to him, you will | believe. The power of witness comes from your belief. And everything |
| Tx:27.57 | reality. He knows it is not real. For nothing could contain what you | believe it holds within. Nor could it tell a part of God Himself what |
| Tx:27.84 | The world but demonstrates an ancient truth—you will | believe that others do to you exactly what you think you did to them. |
| Tx:28.4 | events, but only of a present state. You are so long accustomed to | believe that memory holds only what is past that it is hard for you |
| Tx:28.18 | to be his Father's Son. For this impossible desire, he does not | believe that he is Love's effect and must be cause because of what he |
| Tx:28.41 | Call not to him to meet you in the gap between you, or you must | believe that it is your reality as well as his. You cannot do his |
| Tx:28.49 | Remember if you share an evil dream, you will | believe you are the dream you share. And fearing it, you will not |
| Tx:28.53 | You who | believe there is a little gap between you, do not understand that it |
| Tx:29.1 | to attack; and His eternal patience sometimes fail. All this do you | believe, when you perceive a gap between your brother and yourself. |

| Tx:29.46 | as major beneficiary, you try to bring about your death. For you | believe that you can suffer lack, and lack is death. To sacrifice is |
| Tx:29.53 | you. Idols are but substitutes for your reality. In some way, you | believe they will complete your little self [and let you walk in] |
| Tx:29.61 | the dream you made, and ask yourself if it be not the truth that you | believe that it is not a dream. A dream of judgment came into the |
| Tx:29.64 | dreaming it. For idols must be part of it to save you from what you | believe you have accomplished and have done to make you sinful and |
| Tx:29.65 | grow large and dangerous and fierce and wild? This does the child | believe because he fears his thoughts and gives them to the toys |

| Tx:30.40 | thing to add to you to make yourself complete can only mean that you | believe some form is missing. And by finding this, you will achieve |
| Tx:30.52 | It is His laws which guarantee your safety. All illusions that you | believe about yourself obey no laws. They seem to dance a little |
| Tx:30.54 | when you decide one very simple thing—you do not want whatever you | believe an idol gives. For thus the Son of God declares that he is |

| Tx:31.27 | not be forgiven in you? Why are they real in him if you did not | believe that they are your reality? And why do you attack them |

| W1:I.5 | them to what you see. You are not asked to judge them nor even to | believe them. You are asked only to use them. It is their use which |
| W1:I.5 | to you and show you they are true. Remember only this—you need not | believe them, you need not accept them, and you need not welcome |
| W1:5.1 | you think is causing you pain. Apply it specifically to whatever you | believe is the cause of your upset, using the description of the |
| W1:5.4 | which you first search your mind for “sources” of upset in which you | believe and forms of upset which you think result. |
| W1:7.1 | This idea is particularly difficult to | believe at first. Yet it is the rationale for all of the preceding |
| W1:7.8 | ideas about time are very difficult to change because everything you | believe is rooted in time and depends on your not learning these new |
| W1:9.2 | It is difficult for the untrained mind to | believe that what seems to be pictured before it is not there. This |
| W1:10.5 | This idea will help to release me from all that I now | believe. |
| W1:10.9 | This idea will help to release me from all that I now | believe. |
| W1:13.8 | because of the “vengeance” of the “enemy.” You are not expected to | believe the statement at this point and will probably try to dismiss |
| W1:17.1 | It is always the thought that comes first, despite the temptation to | believe that it is really the other way around. This is not the way |
| W1:17.8 | As usual, it is essential to make no distinction between what you | believe to be animate or inanimate, pleasant or unpleasant. |
| W1:17.8 | or inanimate, pleasant or unpleasant. Regardless of what you may | believe, you do not see anything which is really alive and really |
| W1:21.3 | not really recognize what arouses anger in you, and nothing that you | believe in this connection means anything. You will probably be |
| W1:25.2 | anything is for. As a result, you are bound to misuse it. When you | believe this, you will try to withdraw the goals you have assigned to |
| W1:26.1 | invulnerable. You see attack as a real threat. That is because you | believe that you can really attack. And what would have effects |
| W1:26.2 | be projected, you will fear attack. And if you fear attack, you must | believe that you are not invulnerable. Attack thoughts therefore make |
| W1:26.3 | Thus they have attacked your perception of yourself. And because you | believe in them, you can no longer believe in yourself. A false image |
| W1:26.3 | of yourself. And because you believe in them, you can no longer | believe in yourself. A false image of yourself has come to take the |
| W1:27.2 | There may be a great temptation to | believe that some sort of sacrifice is being asked of you when you |
| W1:35.1 | you. It is difficult for anyone who thinks he is in this world to | believe this of himself. Yet the reason he thinks he is in this world |
| W1:35.1 | Yet the reason he thinks he is in this world is because he does not | believe it. |
| W1:35.2 | You will | believe that you are part of where you think you are. That is because |
| W1:35.2 | made. The image is part of this environment. What you see while you | believe you are in it is seen through the eyes of the image. This is |
| W1:39.2 | in answering is not due to the ambiguity of the question. But do you | believe that guilt is hell? If you did, you would see at once how |
| W1:41.1 | of loss. The separated ones have invented many “cures” for what they | believe to be the “ills of the world.” But the one thing they do not |
| W1:41.4 | We understand that you do not | believe all this. How could you, when the truth is hidden deep within |
| W1:41.7 | it is the only natural thing in the world. The way will open if you | believe that it is possible. This exercise can bring very startling |
| W1:44.5 | you practice in this form, you leave behind everything that you now | believe and all the thoughts which you have made up. Properly |
| W1:44.6 | that to reach light is to escape from darkness, whatever you may | believe to the contrary. God is the Light in which you see. You are |
| W1:47.2 | Of yourself, you can do none of these things. To | believe that you can is to put your trust where trust is unwarranted |
| W1:47.6 | is associated with feelings of inadequacy, since otherwise you would | believe that you could deal with the situation successfully. It is |
| W1:48.1 | idea for today simply states a fact. It is not a fact to those who | believe in illusions, but illusions are not facts. In truth there is |
| W1:50.1 | you today and tomorrow and throughout time. In this world, you | believe you are sustained by everything but God. Your faith is placed |
| W1:55.6 | that I attempt to use everyone and everything. It is this that I | believe the world is for. Therefore I do not recognize its real |
| W1:68.2 | split you off from your Source and make you unlike Him. It makes you | believe that He is like what you think you have become, for no one |
| W1:68.9 | surrounding you, hovering over you, and holding you up. Try to | believe, however briefly, that nothing can harm you in any way. At |
| W1:69.5 | From where you stand, you can see no reason to | believe there is a brilliant light hidden by the clouds. The clouds |
| W1:70.1 | is nothing more than some form of the basic temptation not to | believe the idea for today. Salvation seems to come from anywhere |
| W1:71.1 | for salvation in opposition to God's. It is this plan in which you | believe. Since it is the opposite of God's, you also believe that to |
| W1:71.1 | in which you believe. Since it is the opposite of God's, you also | believe that to accept God's plan in place of the ego's is to be |
| W1:71.1 | you will realize that, however preposterous it may be, you do | believe it. |
| W1:71.3 | grievance you hold is a declaration and an assertion in which you | believe that says, “If this were different, I would be saved.” The |
| W1:72.2 | the best means to expand communication. Yet the ego would have you | believe that it is. |
| W1:75.9 | Holy Spirit never fails to give the gift of sight to the forgiving. | Believe He will not fail you now. You have forgiven the world. He |
| W1:76.8 | of the body's protection in innumerable ways. Think further—you | believe in the laws of friendship, of “good” relationships, and |
| W1:87.5 | because there is no will but God's. I can become afraid only when I | believe that there is another will. I try to attack only when I am |
| W1:87.5 | to attack only when I am afraid, and only when I try to attack can I | believe that my eternal safety is threatened. Today I will recognize |
| W1:88.7 | My perception of this shows me I | believe in laws which do not exist. I see only the laws of God at |
| W1:90.5 | solved. I seem to have problems only because I am misusing time. I | believe that the problem comes first, and time must elapse before it |
| W1:92.1 | is tied up with the body and its eyes and brain. This is why you | believe that you can change what you see by putting little bits of |
| W1:92.2 | the conviction you are a body and the body's eyes can see. You also | believe the body's brain can think. If you but understood the nature |
| W1:92.2 | bound until you let it go. Yet this is no more foolish than to | believe the body's eyes can see, the brain can think. |
| W1:93.2 | bowed down to idols made of dust—all this is true by what you now | believe. |
| W1:95.1 | accept this and you fail to realize it must be so, only because you | believe that you have changed yourself already. You see yourself as a |
| W1:99.16 | of doubt and fear forever from your mind. If you are tempted to | believe them true, remember that appearances cannot withstand the |
| W1:101.1 | This is a key idea in understanding what salvation means. You still | believe it asks for suffering as penance for your “sins.” This is not |
| W1:101.1 | for your “sins.” This is not so. Yet you must think it so while you | believe that sin is real and that God's Son can sin. If sin is real, |
| W1:101.5 | periods today. The exercises teach sin is not real, and all that you | believe must come from sin will never happen, for it has no cause. |
| W1:102.1 | want to suffer. You may think it buys you something and may still | believe a little that it buys you what you want. Yet this belief is |
| W1:121.9 | The unforgiving mind does not | believe that giving and receiving are the same. Yet we will try to |
| W1:124.9 | Your benefit will not be less if you | believe that nothing happens. You may not be ready to accept the gain |
| W1:126.2 | Let us consider what you do | believe in place of this idea. It seems to you that other people are |
| W1:126.13 | to His correction and His Love. And what you hear of Him you will | believe, for what He gives will be received by you. |
| W1:127.2 | on one and yet remain itself although it is withheld from others. To | believe these things of love is not to understand it. If it could |
| W1:127.7 | For 15 minutes twice today escape from every law in which you now | believe. Open your mind and rest. The world that seems to hold you |
| W1:128.1 | can use in any way, nor anything at all that serves to give you joy. | Believe this thought, and you are saved from years of misery, from |
| W1:128.4 | thoughts delay your progress to salvation, nor permit temptation to | believe the world has anything you want to hold you back. Nothing is |
| W1:130.4 | separation, all distinctions, and the multitude of differences you | believe make up the world. They are not there. Love's enemy has made |
| W1:133.10 | will not perceive that he has merely failed to gain. He will | believe that he has served the ego's hidden goals. And though he |
| W1:133.11 | to the dictates of his guide. This guidance teaches it is error to | believe that sins are but mistakes, for who would suffer for his sins |
| W1:133.12 | And so we come to the criterion for choice which is the hardest to | believe, because its obviousness is overlaid with many levels of |
| W1:133.17 | Should you begin to let yourself collect some needless burdens or | believe you see some difficult decisions facing you, be quick to |
| W1:134.3 | that you find in genuine forgiveness on your part is that you still | believe you must forgive the truth and not illusions. You conceive of |
| W1:134.4 | as deception. For it is impossible to think of sin as true and not | believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is forgiveness really but a sin, |
| W1:135.28 | Try not to shape this day as you | believe would benefit you most. For you cannot conceive of all the |
| W1:136.3 | magic wands you wave when truth appears to threaten what you would | believe. They seem to be unconscious but because of the rapidity with |
| W1:136.11 | Such is your planning for your own defense. And you | believe that Heaven quails before such mad attacks as these, with God |
| W1:138.1 | In this world, Heaven is a choice because here we | believe there are alternatives to choose between. We think that all |
| W1:139.3 | To be alive and not to know yourself is to | believe that you are really dead. For what is life except to be |
| W1:139.7 | to ask what it must be is all the proof you need to show that you | believe the contradiction that you know not what you cannot fail to |
| W1:151.2 | what is shown you through the body's eyes. Nor do you ask why you | believe it, even though you learned a long while since your senses do |
| W1:151.2 | you learned a long while since your senses do deceive. That you | believe them to the last detail which they report is even stranger |
| W1:151.4 | is a right to be withheld from you. You cannot judge. You merely can | believe the ego's judgments, all of which are false. It guides your |
| W1:151.5 | it speaks of and would yet defend it tells you is yourself. And you | believe that this is so with stubborn certainty. Yet underneath |
| W1:151.5 | that what it shows you as reality with such conviction it does not | believe. It is itself alone that it condemns. It is within itself it |
| W1:151.6 | not share the doubts their lord cannot completely vanquish. You | believe to doubt his vassals is to doubt yourself. Yet you must learn |
| W1:152.2 | You may | believe that this position is extreme and too inclusive to be true. |
| W1:152.6 | Is it not strange that you | believe to think you made the world you see is arrogance? God made it |
| W1:152.7 | And can you see what God created not? To think you can is merely to | believe you can perceive what God willed not to be. And what could be |
| W1:153.7 | you now from your delusion of an angry god whose fearful image you | believe you see at work in all the evils of the world? What but |
| W1:154.1 | not in hell. And what we think is weakness can be strength; what we | believe to be our strength is often arrogance. |
| W1:155.1 | those who have not yet perceived the way will recognize you also and | believe that you are like them as you were before. |
| W1:160.1 | Who could be sane in such a circumstance? Who but a madman could | believe he is what he is not and judge against himself? |
| W1:166.2 | God, and so it is not real. Yet those who think it real must still | believe there is another will, and one that leads to opposite effects |
| W1:166.3 | are not acceptable to anyone who holds such strange beliefs. He must | believe that, to accept God's gifts, however evident they may become, |
| W1:169.2 | that those whose minds are lighted by the gift of grace cannot | believe the world of fear is real. |
| W1:170.1 | is protection; you are safe because of cruelty. You mean that you | believe to hurt another brings you freedom. And you mean that to |
| W1:170.10 | stressed about the obstacles to peace. The final one, the hardest to | believe is nothing and a seeming obstacle with the appearance of a |
| W1:181.5 | by a little while. We do not look to past beliefs, and what we will | believe will not intrude upon us now. We enter in the time of |
| W1:184.5 | to teach the mind a thousand alien names and thousands more. Yet you | believe this is what learning means—its one essential goal by which |
| W1:184.8 | you make appeal. His true Identity is hidden from you by what you | believe he really is. His body makes response to what you call him, |
| W1:185.8 | the words you use in making your requests. Consider but what you | believe will comfort you and bring you happiness. But be you not |
| W1:187.3 | the world, you first accept salvation for yourself. But you will not | believe that this is done until you see the miracles it brings to |
| W1:187.8 | Never | believe that you can sacrifice. There is no place for sacrifice in |
| W1:188.2 | This light cannot be lost. Why wait to find it in the future or | believe it has been lost already or was never there? It can so easily |
| W1:191.4 | You are as God created you. All else but this one thing is folly to | believe. In this one thought is everything set free. In this one |
| W1:193.10 | Shall we not learn to say these words when we are tempted to | believe that pain is real and death becomes our choice instead of |
| W1:196.3 | would distort the truth will not deceive you longer. You will not | believe you are a body to be crucified. And you will see within |
| W1:196.5 | belief the fear of God is real. And what is that but hell? Who could | believe his Father is his deadly enemy, separate from him and waiting |
| W1:196.6 | Such is the form of madness you | believe if you accept the fearful thought you can attack another and |
| W1:196.8 | by your own thoughts, the fear of God must disappear. You do not now | believe that fear is caused without. And God, Whom you had thought to |
| W1:198.8 | How foolish to | believe that They could die! How foolish to believe you can attack! |
| W1:198.8 | How foolish to believe that They could die! How foolish to | believe you can attack! How mad to think that you could be condemned |
| W1:199.7 | Be free today, and carry freedom as your gift to those who still | believe they are enslaved within a body. Be you free, so that the |
| W2:226.1 | but it is change of mind about the purpose of the world. If I | believe it has a value as I see it now, so will it still remain for |
| W2:228.1 | My Father knows my holiness. Shall I deny His knowledge and | believe in what His knowledge makes impossible? Shall I accept as |
| W2:246.1 | his Father or my Self. Let me not fail to recognize myself and still | believe that my awareness can contain my Father, or my mind conceive |
| W2:WIB.5 | with what you think will make you safe. Whatever it may be, you will | believe that it is one with you. Your safety lies in truth and not in |
| W2:277.2 | Let us not worship idols nor | believe in any laws idolatry would make to hide the freedom of the |
| W2:278.1 | appear to die, then is my Father prisoner with me. And this do I | believe when I maintain the laws the world obeys must I obey—the |
| W2:331.1 | How foolish, Father, to | believe Your Son could cause himself to suffer! Could he make a plan |
| M:I.2 | There are only two thought systems, and you demonstrate that you | believe one or the other is true all the time. From your |
| M:I.2 | teaching. Teaching is but a call to witnesses to attest to what you | believe. It is a method of conversion. This is not done by words |
| M:I.3 | determined exclusively by what you think you are and what you | believe the relationship of others is to you. In the formal teaching |
| M:I.3 | what you say that teaches you. Teaching but reinforces what you | believe about yourself. Its fundamental purpose is to diminish self |
| M:1.1 | enough. He has entered an agreement with God even if he does not yet | believe in Him. He has become a bringer of salvation. He has become a |
| M:5.8 | do not realize they have chosen sickness. On the contrary, they | believe that sickness has chosen them. Nor are they open-minded on |
| M:5.10 | for God's Voice in this brother who would so deceive himself as to | believe God's Son can suffer. And they remind him that he has not |
| M:11.3 | These problems are not real, but that is meaningless to those who | believe in them. And everyone believes in what he made, for it was |
| M:12.4 | separation, but because of what they use the body for, they do not | believe in the illusion despite appearances. |
| M:13.6 | You may | believe this course requires sacrifice of all you really hold dear. |
| M:13.7 | A split that cannot happen. Yet a split in which you surely will | believe, because you have set up a situation that is impossible. And |
| M:15.3 | Is this your judgment on yourself, teacher of God? Do you | believe that this is wholly true? No, not yet, not yet. But this is |
| M:17.6 | is inevitable, for its outcome must be death. How then can one | believe in one's defenses? Magic again must help. Forget the battle. |
| M:17.6 | Accept your separation, but do not remember how it came about. | Believe that you have won it, but do not retain the slightest memory |
| M:17.9 | that is not there, yet is the anger certain witness that you do | believe in it as fact. Now is escape impossible until you see you |
| M:20.3 | way or any circumstance proclaims that peace is meaningless and must | believe that it cannot exist. In this condition peace cannot be |
| M:22.4 | sickness does not appear to be a decision. Nor would anyone actually | believe he wants to be sick. Perhaps he can accept the idea in |
| M:22.6 | the power to heal all individuals of all forms of sickness. Not to | believe this is to be unfair to God and thus unfaithful to Him. A |
| M:24.2 | however, that the way to salvation can be found by those who | believe in reincarnation and by those who do not. The idea cannot, |
| M:24.3 | on reincarnation. A teacher of God should be as helpful to those who | believe in it as to those who do not. If a definite stand on it were |
| M:24.5 | Does this mean that the teacher of God should not | believe in reincarnation himself or discuss it with others who do? |
| M:24.5 | it with others who do? The answer is certainly not! If he does | believe in reincarnation, it would be a mistake for him to renounce |
| M:27.7 | thus: accept no compromise in which death plays a part. Do not | believe in cruelty nor let attack conceal the truth from you. What |

| Tx:6.21 | not have said, “Betrayest thou the Son of Man with a kiss?” unless I | believed in betrayal. The whole message of the crucifixion was simply |
| Tx:6.52 | that when you put yourselves in an impossible situation, you | believed that the impossible was possible. |

| Tx:7.5 | I gave only love to the Kingdom because I | believed that was what I was. What you believe you are determines |

| Tx:7.89 | more you learn about the ego, the more you realize that it cannot be | believed. The incredible cannot be understood, because it is |
| Tx:7.101 | nothing. On the contrary, you will be gaining everything. If you | believed this, there would be no conflict. |

| Tx:7.64 | you believe what you can understand is up to you to decide. The ego | believes this totally, being fully committed to it. It is not true. |
| Tx:7.78 | that others are taking it from you. One must be fearful if he | believes that his brother is attacking him to tear the Kingdom of |
| Tx:7.79 | its insane belief that you have been treacherous to your Creator, it | believes that your brothers, who are as incapable of this as you are, |
| Tx:7.79 | God from you. Whenever a brother attacks another, this is what he | believes. Projection always sees your will in others. If you will to |

| Tx:8.69 | definitions of everything are childish and always based on what it | believes a thing is for. This is because it is incapable of true |
| Tx:8.69 | it teaches that you are to attack with, because this is what it | believes. The body, then, is not the source of its own health. The |
| Tx:8.85 | the mind. This is an attempt to destroy it, yet the ego actually | believes that it is protecting it. This is because the ego believes |
| Tx:8.85 | actually believes that it is protecting it. This is because the ego | believes that mind is dangerous and that to make mindless is to heal. |
| Tx:8.97 | can believe that its will is stronger than God's. If, then, a mind | believes that its will is different from His, it can only decide |

| Tx:8.97 | panic, because the atheist believes he is alone, and the martyr | believes that God is crucifying him. Both really fear abandonment and |
| Tx:9.15 | of the ego that you should be quite familiar with it by now. The ego | believes that all functions belong to it, even though it has no idea |
| Tx:9.20 | more likely to start with the equally incredible idea that he really | believes in attack and so does the patient, but it does not matter in |
| Tx:9.25 | share. He cannot correct because he is not working correctively. He | believes that it is up to him to teach the patient what is real, but |
| Tx:9.27 | of one whose direction has been changed for him and who no longer | believes in nightmares of any kind. The light in his mind will |
| Tx:9.48 | perfectly apparent. Though it does not understand this, the ego | believes that its “enemy” has struck and attempts to offer gifts to |
| Tx:9.51 | cannot be a real part of you because of the littleness in which it | believes. |
| Tx:9.77 | Do not side with sickness in the presence of a Son of God even if he | believes in it, for your acceptance of God in him acknowledges the |
| Tx:10.49 | have become afraid of yourself. And no one wills to learn what he | believes would destroy him. |
| Tx:10.51 | with Him and fulfilling your function as it exists in truth. The ego | believes that to accomplish its goal is happiness. But it is given |
| Tx:10.53 | approach of the ego to everything. Never forget that the ego | believes that power, understanding, and truth lie in separation, and |
| Tx:10.70 | world's only reality. They are still perceptions because he still | believes that he is separate. Yet they are eternal because they are |
| Tx:11.16 | in sickness but another call for love and offer your brother what he | believes he cannot offer himself. Whatever the sickness, there is but |
| Tx:11.25 | want to do. The very fact of his insistence should tell you that he | believes salvation lies in it. If you insist on refusing and |
| Tx:11.30 | your attempt to maintain your ego identification, for everyone | believes that identification is salvation. Yet consider what has |
| Tx:11.36 | teaching. It never puts it this way; on the contrary, everyone who | believes that the ego is salvation is intensely engaged in the search |
| Tx:11.37 | off, or it could not be believed at all. For it is your mind that | believes in it and gives existence to it. Yet it is also your mind |
| Tx:11.74 | to death. The death penalty is the ego's ultimate goal, for it fully | believes that you are a criminal, as deserving of death as God knows |
| Tx:11.92 | he fears and which he sees will never touch him, for although he | believes in it, the Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:11.96 | on one-dimensional time, proceeding from past to future. No one who | believes this can understand what always means. And therefore guilt |
| Tx:11.98 | is the ego's plan, which it offers instead of dispelling it. The ego | believes in atonement through attack, being fully committed to the |
| Tx:12.26 | might well begin. The ego invests heavily in the past and in the end | believes that the past is the only aspect of time that is meaningful. |
| Tx:12.35 | one hears their answer save him who called upon them, and he alone | believes they answered him. Projection makes perception, and you |
| Tx:13.27 | to make what will be now. As yet it is not now. The Son of God | believes that he is lost in guilt, alone in a dark world where pain |
| Tx:13.35 | no one sees himself in conflict and ravaged by a cruel war unless he | believes that both opponents in the war are real. Believing this, he |
| Tx:14.28 | is seen in the same place. Light cannot enter darkness when a mind | believes in darkness and will not let it go. Truth does not struggle |
| Tx:15.66 | the ego to enter into any relationship without anger, for the ego | believes that anger makes friends. This is not its statement, but it |
| Tx:15.66 | This is not its statement, but it is its purpose. For the ego really | believes that it can get and keep by making guilty. This is its one |
| Tx:15.67 | in it, to learn to let it go. No one would choose to let go what he | believes has value. Yet the attraction of guilt has value to you only |
| Tx:15.71 | thinks he wants. He is not in love with the other at all. He merely | believes he is in love with sacrifice. And for this sacrifice, which |
| Tx:15.71 | himself as well. Forgiveness becomes impossible, for the ego | believes that to forgive another is to lose him. For it is only by |
| Tx:16.72 | escape from the past, it sees itself deprived of the vengeance it | believes that you so justly merit. Yet without your alliance in your |
| Tx:17.61 | again, you see the opposite of the ego's way of looking, for the ego | believes the situation brings the experience. The Holy Spirit knows |
| Tx:17.62 | give. Yet this is so only from the viewpoint of the ego, for the ego | believes in “solving” conflict through fragmentation and does not |
| Tx:18.51 | is never what the body does that seems to satisfy. Unless the mind | believes the body is actually acting out its fantasies, it will |
| Tx:18.52 | attack, but it can deceive itself. And this is all it does when it | believes it has attacked the body. It can project its guilt, but it |
| Tx:18.57 | from himself except in illusions. This is not his reality, though he | believes it is. Yet this could only be if God were wrong. God would |
| Tx:19.49 | not be afraid. Fear is attracted to what love sees not, and each | believes that what the other looks upon does not exist. Fear looks on |
| Tx:19.110 | the journey was your choice. And no one undertakes to do what he | believes is meaningless. What you had faith in still is faithful and |
| Tx:20.22 | The world | believes in sin, but the belief that made it as you see it is not |
| Tx:21.23 | to welcome it or not. Faith and desire go hand in hand, for everyone | believes in what he wants. |
| Tx:21.31 | a power. For faith can keep the Son of God in chains as long as he | believes he is in chains. And when he is released from them, it will |
| Tx:21.31 | he is released from them, it will be simply because he no longer | believes in them, withdrawing faith that they can hold him and |
| Tx:21.38 | to use the body to carry out the means for sin in which the mind | believes. Thus is the joining of mind and body an inescapable belief |
| Tx:21.63 | if you think it does, you are insane. But madness has a purpose and | believes it also has the means to make its purpose real. To see the |
| Tx:21.71 | No one | believes the Son of God is powerless. And those who see themselves as |
| Tx:21.74 | a target. There can be no faith in sin without an enemy. Who that | believes in sin would dare believe he has no enemy? Could he admit |
| Tx:21.88 | ask for it. For no one fails to ask for his desire of something he | believes holds out some promise of the power of giving it. He may be |
| Tx:22.21 | You know what your Creator wills is possible, but what you made | believes it is not so. Now must you choose between yourself and an |
| Tx:22.51 | for freedom and tries to find it. Yet he will seek for it where he | believes it is and can be found. He will believe it possible of mind |
| Tx:24.41 | effect and cause are interchanged, for here the maker of the dream | believes that what he made is happening to him. He does not realize |
| Tx:25.24 | world where this reflection is, is real at all. Only because His Son | believes it is, and from His Son's belief He could not let Himself be |
| Tx:25.26 | God created it, but in some form adapted to the need the Son of God | believes he has. Corrected error is the error's end. And thus has God |
| Tx:25.52 | makes any sense at all within this world. And nothing that the world | believes as true has any meaning in His Mind at all. What makes no |
| Tx:25.53 | in anything it thinks, or is maintained by any form of reason | believes this to be true. Sin is not real because the Father and the |
| Tx:26.21 | Nothing the Son of God | believes can be destroyed. But what is truth to him must be brought |
| Tx:26.25 | into Heaven. No one forgives unless he has believed in sin and still | believes that he has much to be forgiven. Forgiveness thus becomes |
| Tx:27.14 | of the guilt they overlook. Yet no one can forgive a sin which he | believes is real. And what has consequences must be real because what |
| Tx:27.81 | and dreaming in the world remembers his attack upon himself. No one | believes there really was a time when he knew nothing of a body and |
| Tx:29.53 | to supply your lacks and add the value which you do not have. No one | believes in idols who has not enslaved himself to littleness and |
| Tx:29.59 | depending on the one of whom the question has been asked. The world | believes in idols. No one comes unless he worshiped them and still |
| Tx:31.44 | at times with pity on the suffering and sometimes offers solace. It | believes that it is good within an evil world. |
| Tx:31.56 | has always been the great preoccupation of the world. And everyone | believes that he must find the answer to the riddle of himself. |
| W1:127.5 | the world obeys can help you grasp love's meaning. What the world | believes was made to hide love's meaning and to keep it dark and |
| W1:130.1 | has not accorded value. And no one can fail to look upon what he | believes he wants. |
| W1:131.10 | what has no opposite. He thinks he made a hell opposing Heaven and | believes that he abides in what does not exist, while Heaven is the |
| W1:134.11 | not kept to swell and bluster and to terrify the foolish dreamer who | believes in them. He has been gently wakened from his dream by |
| W1:136.11 | made slave to laws which your defenses would impose on it. Yet who | believes illusions but the one who made them up? Who else can see |
| W1:139.6 | sad belief that what is universal here is true? Nothing the world | believes is true. It is a place whose purpose is to be a home where |
| W1:159.1 | Heaven and the world agree. But here they also separate. The world | believes that to possess a thing, it must be kept. Salvation teaches |
| W1:166.2 | the world and judges it as certain, solid, trustworthy, and true | believes in two creators or in one, himself alone. But never in one |
| W1:166.4 | Here is the only home he thinks he knows. Here is the only safety he | believes that he can find. Without the world he made is he an |
| W1:167.7 | opposite in anything created nor in what it seems to make when it | believes it sleeps. |
| W1:193.2 | God sees no contradictions. Yet His Son | believes he sees them. Thus he has a need for One Who can correct his |
| W1:200.6 | escape of God's beloved Son from evil dreams that he imagines, yet | believes are true, a worthy purpose? Who could hope for more while |
| W2:356.1 | not matter where he is, what seems to be his problem, nor what he | believes he has become. He is Your Son, and You will answer him. The |
| M:5.10 | of God consider the forms of sickness in which their brother | believes. To do this is to forget that all of them have the same |
| M:10.1 | says about them, and the teacher himself is inconsistent in what he | believes. |
| M:11.3 | but that is meaningless to those who believe in them. And everyone | believes in what he made, for it was made by his believing it. Into |

| W1:25.2 | in terms of ego goals. These goals have nothing to do with your own | best interests, because the ego is not you. This false identification |
| W1:26.1 | it now. You must therefore learn how it can be used for your own | best interests rather than against them. |
| W1:46.6 | purpose of the first phase of today's practice is to put you in the | best position to forgive yourself. After you have applied the idea |

| W1:86.5 | hope of salvation from my awareness. I would no longer defeat my own | best interests in this insane way. I would accept God's plan for |

| W1:154.2 | strengths exactly as they are and equally aware of where they can be | best applied, for what, to whom, and when, He chooses and accepts |
| W1:197.1 | lest they be withdrawn. And so you think God's gifts are loans at | best; at worst, deceptions which would cheat you of defenses to |
| W1:R6.11 | go, and trusting Him completely for the way each practice period can | best become a loving gift of freedom to the world. |

| M:4.7 | in which the teacher of God feels called upon to sacrifice his own | best interests on behalf of truth. He has not realized as yet how |

| Tx:1.90 | Until the “separation,” which is a | better term than the “fall,” nothing was lacking. This meant that man |
| Tx:1.90 | The body is the mechanism for behavior. The belief that he could be | better off is the reason why man has this mechanism at his disposal. |
| Tx:2.34 | is that you can defend truth as well as error and, in fact, much | better. |

| Tx:2.81 | willing and doing become discordant. This cannot be corrected by | better doing, but it can be corrected by higher willing. |
| Tx:3.61 | be no more. This is symbolic only in the sense that everyone is much | better off without judgment. When the Bible says, “Judge not that ye |
| Tx:4.19 | inherit the earth because their egos are humble, and this gives them | better perception. The Kingdom of Heaven is the right of the Soul, |
| Tx:4.25 | relative perception as is physical interaction. There could be no | better example of the fact that the ego is an idea, though not a |
| Tx:4.30 | give only because you believe that you are somehow getting something | better so that you can do without the thing you give. “Giving to get” |
| Tx:5.11 | Holy Inspiration is so close to knowledge that it calls it forth; or | better, allows it to come. We have spoken before of the higher or the |
| Tx:5.28 | the Call of the Holy Spirit, or the Sonship cannot be as one. What | better vocation could there be for any part of the Kingdom than to |
| Tx:5.55 | that he belongs to God as you do. How could you treat your brother | better than by rendering unto God the things which are God's? |
| Tx:5.65 | We said before that illness is a form of magic. It might be | better to say that it is a form of magical solution. The ego believes |
| Tx:5.83 | The idea of “set” is among the | better psychological concepts. Actually, it is used quite frequently |
| Tx:5.87 | although Freud misinterpreted what the Holy Spirit told him, or | better, reminded him of, he was too honest to deny more than was |
| Tx:5.90 | His? Do you really believe that you can plan for your safety and joy | better than He can? You need be neither careful nor careless; you |
| Tx:6.3 | quite evident that you had already developed the ability to follow a | better model if you could accept it. |
| Tx:6.28 | there is another use of projection. Every ability of the ego has a | better counterpart, because its abilities are directed by the mind |
| Tx:6.28 | because its abilities are directed by the mind which has a | better Voice. The Holy Spirit as well as the ego utilizes projection, |
| Tx:6.58 | How can you wake children | better and more kindly than by a gentle Voice that will not frighten |
| Tx:7.17 | to make the remembering consistent. You forget in order to remember | better. You will not understand His translations while you listen to |

| Tx:7.34 | ego. We said before that forgetting is merely a way of remembering | better. It is therefore not the opposite of remembering, when it is |
| Tx:7.49 | voices, so you can see in two ways. One way shows you an image, or | better, an idol which you may worship out of fear but which you will |
| Tx:7.73 | You cannot love this. Yet you can very easily escape from it or, | better, leave it behind. You are not there, and that is not you. Do |
| Tx:7.102 | to you. You believe that doing the opposite of God's Will can be | better for you. You also believe that it is possible to do the |
| Tx:9.66 | remember being awake. When you hear the Holy Spirit, you merely feel | better because loving seems possible to you, but you do not remember |
| Tx:10.17 | becomes a lesson in understanding, and the more you practice it, the | better teacher and learner you become. If you have denied truth, what |
| Tx:10.17 | teacher and learner you become. If you have denied truth, what | better witnesses to its reality could you have than those who have |
| Tx:11.13 | would look upon love, which is the world's reality, how could you do | better than to recognize in every defense against it the underlying |
| Tx:11.13 | defense against it the underlying appeal for it? And how could you | better learn of its reality than by answering the appeal for it by |
| Tx:14.49 | to classifying some of your thoughts as more important, larger or | better, wiser or more productive and valuable than others. And this |
| Tx:14.50 | examples to show you that your way of ordering is wrong, but that a | better way is offered you. |
| Tx:16.11 | or looking away from the whole to what you think you might be | better able to understand. For this is but another way in which you |
| Tx:16.11 | in which you would still try to keep understanding to yourself. A | better and far more helpful way to think of miracles is this: You do |
| Tx:16.17 | considering honestly what they have been? God wills you | better. Could you not look with greater charity on whom God loves |
| Tx:16.48 | and the basis for the attempt at union rests on exclusion. What | better example could there be of the ego's maxim, “Seek but do not |
| Tx:16.49 | much value can he place upon a self that he would give away to get a | better one? |
| Tx:17.39 | You who have tried so hard and are still trying to fit the | better picture into the wrong frame and so combine what cannot be |
| Tx:18.15 | are a way of looking at the world and changing it to suit the ego | better. They provide striking examples both of the ego's inability to |
| Tx:19.24 | Perhaps you would be tempted to agree with the ego that it is far | better to be sinful than mistaken. Yet think you carefully before you |
| Tx:19.57 | cannot keep us apart? Mine was no greater value than yours; no | better means for communication of salvation, but not its Source. No |
| Tx:19.83 | through your acceptance the power to release from corruption. What | better way to teach the first and fundamental principle in a course |
| Tx:20.46 | Nothing can show the contrast | better than the experience of both a holy and an unholy relationship. |
| Tx:20.70 | What can you value more than this? Why do you think the body is a | better home, a safer shelter for God's Son? Why would you rather look |
| Tx:20.76 | the world outside must thus reflect the sight you saw within; or | better, if you saw at all or merely judged against. Vision is the |
| Tx:21.24 | is how the ego deals with what it wants to make it so. There is no | better demonstration of the power of wanting, and therefore of faith, |
| Tx:24.9 | each other only partial welcome or would let you think that you are | better off apart. Is it not always your belief your specialness is |
| Tx:24.65 | show, as bait to catch another fish, to house your specialness in | better style or weave a frame of loveliness around your hate, and you |
| Tx:25.13 | in this respect is hardly worth delaying change that might result in | better outcome? For one thing is sure—the way you see, and long |
| Tx:25.36 | thoughts that entered it and were mistaken for a little while. How | better could your own mistakes be brought to truth than by your |
| Tx:25.44 | and the clarity it brings to what they look upon. Dimness seems | better—easier to see and better recognized. Somehow, the vague and |

| Tx:30.21 | right. But this much reason have you now attained—you would be | better off if you were wrong. |
| Tx:31.40 | you have no choice, and you can but decide how you would choose the | better to deceive yourself again. This course attempts to teach no |

| Tx:4.15 | let your ego dispute this because the ego cannot know what is as far | beyond its reach as you are. |
| Tx:4.19 | Humility is a lesson for the ego, not for the Soul. The Soul is | beyond humility because it recognizes its radiance and gladly sheds |

| Tx:4.19 | right of the Soul, whose beauty and dignity are far beyond doubt, | beyond perception, and stand forever as the mark of the Love of God |
| Tx:4.21 | teachers who share my aim of healing the mind. The Soul is far | beyond the need of your protection or mine. Remember this: |
| Tx:4.32 | The ego literally lives by comparisons. This means that equality is | beyond its grasp and charity becomes impossible. The ego never gives |
| Tx:4.45 | pointed out, what you have repressed can retain a very active life | beyond your awareness. |
| Tx:4.49 | no ego has experienced love without ambivalence, the concept is | beyond its understanding. |
| Tx:5.11 | Holy Spirit is the Christ Mind, which senses the knowledge that lies | beyond perception. It came into being with the separation as a |
| Tx:5.16 | is the point at which the shift occurs. Finally, it points the way | beyond the healing which it brings and leads the mind beyond its own |
| Tx:5.16 | points the way beyond the healing which it brings and leads the mind | beyond its own integration into the paths of creation. |
| Tx:5.17 | it is reparation. The Holy Spirit promotes healing by looking | beyond it to what the Children of God were before healing was needed |
| Tx:5.31 | The power of our joint motivation is | beyond belief but not beyond accomplishment. What we can accomplish |
| Tx:5.31 | The power of our joint motivation is beyond belief but not | beyond accomplishment. What we can accomplish together has no limits, |
| Tx:5.38 | the ego's beliefs in its own language. His equal ability to look | beyond symbols into eternity also enables Him to understand the laws |
| Tx:5.44 | because you did not accept them as part of you. Understanding is | beyond perception because it introduces meaning. It is, however, |
| Tx:5.45 | and have kept them for you in their own perfect radiance. They are | beyond destruction and beyond guilt. They came from the Holy Spirit |

| Tx:5.46 | as fearful and teach you that only what is loving is true. Truth is | beyond your ability to destroy but entirely within your grasp. It |
| Tx:5.69 | the remedy for a thought disorder, and a remedy whose efficacy is | beyond doubt, how can its symptoms remain? You have reason to |

| Tx:6.82 | Spirit is evaluative and must be. Yet His evaluation does not extend | beyond you, or you would share it. In your mind, and your mind only, |
| Tx:6.88 | which brings together the lessons implied in the others and goes | beyond them towards real integration. |
| Tx:6.91 | already said that altars are beliefs, but God and His creations are | beyond belief, because they are beyond question. The Voice for God |
| Tx:6.91 | but God and His creations are beyond belief, because they are | beyond question. The Voice for God speaks only for belief beyond |

| Tx:6.91 | His creation and therefore does engender doubt. You cannot go | beyond belief until you believe fully. |
| Tx:7.5 | forever, since joy and eternity are inseparable. God extends outward | beyond limits and beyond time, and you who are co-creators with Him |
| Tx:7.5 | and eternity are inseparable. God extends outward beyond limits and | beyond time, and you who are co-creators with Him extend His Kingdom |
| Tx:7.5 | and you who are co-creators with Him extend His Kingdom forever and | beyond limit. Eternity is the indelible stamp of creation. The |
| Tx:7.30 | His light, because His light is what your minds are. This is totally | beyond question, and when you questioned it you were answered. The |
| Tx:7.64 | Your identification with the Kingdom is totally | beyond question, except by you when you are thinking insanely. What |
| Tx:7.89 | The Holy Spirit will teach you to perceive | beyond belief, because truth is beyond belief, and His perception is |
| Tx:7.89 | Spirit will teach you to perceive beyond belief, because truth is | beyond belief, and His perception is true. The ego can be completely |
| Tx:7.89 | from the unbelievable must be apparent, but it is not recognized as | beyond belief, because it was made by belief. |
| Tx:7.90 | whole Kingdom as literally part of you. This identification is as | beyond doubt as it is beyond belief. Your wholeness has no limits, |
| Tx:7.90 | part of you. This identification is as beyond doubt as it is | beyond belief. Your wholeness has no limits, because being is in |

| Tx:8.36 | but together our wills fuse into something whose power is far | beyond the power of its separate parts. By not being separate, the |
| Tx:8.39 | the way to renounce the ego in yourself. The truth in both of us is | beyond the ego. By willing that, you have gone beyond it toward |
| Tx:8.39 | in both of us is beyond the ego. By willing that, you have gone | beyond it toward truth. Our success in transcending the ego is |
| Tx:8.41 | is the way to what is true. Leave all deception behind and reach | beyond all attempts of the ego to hold you back. I go before you, |
| Tx:8.41 | attempts of the ego to hold you back. I go before you, because I am | beyond the ego. Reach therefore for my hand, because you want to |
| Tx:8.57 | of me, you are. To communicate with part of God Himself is to reach | beyond the Kingdom to its Creator through His Voice, which He has |
| Tx:8.61 | the part of the mind you have separated from your Soul can reach | beyond its distortions and return to the Soul. The ego's temple thus |
| Tx:8.62 | can be made manifest through the physical if it uses the body to go | beyond itself. By reaching out, the mind extends itself. It does not |
| Tx:8.63 | its perception of the body and, by blocking its own extension | beyond it, will induce illness by fostering separation. Perceiving |
| Tx:8.64 | either the aids or the learning's real purpose. Learning must lead | beyond the body to the reestablishment of the power of the mind in |
| Tx:8.66 | made flesh. Yet mind can be manifested through the body if it goes | beyond it and does not interpret it as limitation. Whenever you see |
| Tx:8.92 | means is that you are arbitrarily endowing something quite | beyond your awareness with something you do not want. It is evident, |
| Tx:8.105 | make yourself unreal. When you feel these things, do not try to look | beyond yourself for truth, for truth can only be within you. Say, |
| Tx:8.114 | this way, you are looking for the truth in you. This is not going | beyond yourself but toward yourself. Hear only God's Answer in His |
| Tx:9.9 | anything is for you alone. To forgive is to overlook. Look, then, | beyond error, and do not let your perception rest upon it, for you |
| Tx:9.10 | a part to play in the Atonement, but the plan of the Atonement is | beyond you. You do not know how to overlook errors, or you would not |
| Tx:9.14 | Forgiveness through the Holy Spirit lies simply in looking | beyond error from the beginning and thus keeping it unreal for you. |
| Tx:9.32 | you offer to your brother, you offer to Him because He cannot go | beyond your offering in His giving. This is not because He limits His |

| Tx:9.43 | system from within it. Its own range precludes this. You can only go | beyond it, look back from a point where sanity exists, and see the |
| Tx:9.44 | questioned only at its foundation. And this must be questioned from | beyond it, because, within it, its foundation does stand. The Holy |
| Tx:9.59 | Nothing | beyond yourself can make you fearful or loving, because nothing is |
| Tx:9.59 | beyond yourself can make you fearful or loving, because nothing is | beyond you. Time and eternity are both in your mind and will conflict |
| Tx:9.60 | exists, for you are part of Him. What except Him can exist? Nothing | beyond Him can happen, because nothing except Him is real. Your |
| Tx:9.61 | Can anything, then, exceed your will? Nothing can reach you from | beyond it because, being in God, you encompass everything. Believe |
| Tx:9.70 | for yours is the exchange of knowledge for perception. Nothing is | beyond His Will for you. But signify your will to remember Him and |
| Tx:9.89 | You will see nothing at all. And your vision will automatically look | beyond it to what is in you and all around you. Reality cannot break |
| Tx:9.93 | do this, but that you can think you can and believe you have is | beyond dispute. |
| Tx:10.6 | infinity, but how can this be if infinity has no end? No one can be | beyond the limitless because what has no limits must be everywhere. |
| Tx:10.19 | Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He will enable you to go far | beyond the healing you would undertake, for beside your small |

| Tx:10.39 | made it real. We will undo this error quietly together and then look | beyond it to truth. |

| Tx:11.63 | transcended, for what the Holy Spirit enables you to do is clearly | beyond all of them. Perceiving His results, you will understand where |
| Tx:12.22 | but will give up insanity.] For His answer is the reference point | beyond illusions from which you can look back on them and see them as |
| Tx:12.35 | they answered him. Projection makes perception, and you cannot see | beyond it. Again and again have men attacked each other because they |
| Tx:12.39 | You who know not what you do can learn what insanity is and look | beyond it. It is given you to learn how to deny insanity and come |
| Tx:12.42 | seeing that you might see in darkness, and in this you are deceived. | Beyond this darkness and yet still within you is the vision of |
| Tx:12.43 | He beholds Himself. And seeing what He is, He knows His Father. | Beyond your darkest dreams, He sees God's guiltless Son within you, |
| Tx:12.44 | And all this will they understand because they looked within and saw | beyond the darkness the Christ in them and recognized Him. In the |
| Tx:13.4 | under His loving gaze are partial glimpses of the Heaven that lies | beyond them. |
| Tx:13.7 | and who are seeking you and where to find them. Knowledge is far | beyond your individual concern. You, who are part of it and all of |
| Tx:13.10 | them. For never would He leave His own beloved Son outside them and | beyond Himself. |
| Tx:13.22 | main concern is to perceive the source of guilt outside themselves, | beyond their own control. |
| Tx:13.33 | only what God loves with me, and because of this, I treasure you | beyond the value that you set on yourselves, even unto the worth that |
| Tx:13.51 | the power that he gives to them. The thoughts he shares with God are | beyond his belief, but those he made are his beliefs. And it is |
| Tx:13.86 | the First in eternity is God the Father, Who is both First and One. | Beyond the First, there is no other, for there is no order, no second |
| Tx:14.11 | can be untouched by teaching such as this. You will not see yourself | beyond the power of God if you teach only this. You will not be |
| Tx:14.46 | in time but bring eternity nearer or farther. But eternity itself is | beyond all time. Reach out of time and touch it, with the help of its |
| Tx:14.58 | it must fail you. For power is not a seeming strength, and truth is | beyond semblance of any kind. Yet all that stands between you and the |
| Tx:15.3 | religion must therefore be the conviction that it can pursue you | beyond the grave. And out of its unwillingness for you to find peace |
| Tx:15.15 | in which God's Son could lose his purity. His changeless state is | beyond time, for his purity remains forever beyond attack and without |
| Tx:15.15 | His changeless state is beyond time, for his purity remains forever | beyond attack and without variability. Time stands still in his |
| Tx:15.16 | all the obstacles to learning it have been removed? Truth is so far | beyond time that all of it happens at once. For as it was created |
| Tx:15.29 | of magnitude to the host whom God appointed for Himself. It is | beyond all your littleness to give the gift of God, but not beyond |
| Tx:15.29 | It is beyond all your littleness to give the gift of God, but not | beyond you. For God would give Himself through you. He reaches from |
| Tx:15.29 | would give Himself through you. He reaches from you to everyone and | beyond everyone to His Son's creations, but without leaving you. Far |
| Tx:15.29 | beyond everyone to His Son's creations, but without leaving you. Far | beyond your little world but still in you, He extends forever. Yet He |
| Tx:15.31 | of your Father. Let us join in honoring you, who must remain forever | beyond littleness. |
| Tx:15.35 | This course is not | beyond immediate learning unless you prefer to believe that what God |
| Tx:15.35 | be is lost to you. You must decide on when it is. Delay it not. For | beyond the past and future, in which you will not find it, it stands |
| Tx:15.55 | Think you that you can judge the Self of God? God has created it | beyond judgment out of His need to extend His Love. With love in you, |
| Tx:15.65 | Beyond the poor attraction of the special love relationship and | |
| Tx:15.79 | leave you as your Teacher until the holy instant has extended far | beyond time. For a teaching assignment such as His, He must use |
| Tx:15.81 | more than a mistake in who you are. For the holy host of God is | beyond failure, and nothing that he wills can be denied. You are |
| Tx:15.82 | are with the universe. And this universe, being of God, is far | beyond the petty sum of all the separate bodies you perceive. For all |
| Tx:16.10 | do not understand. Nor do you do them. It is their extension, far | beyond the limits you perceive, that demonstrates you did not do |
| Tx:16.21 | knew, you will be compelled to recognize that your Teacher came from | beyond your thought system and so could look upon it fairly and |
| Tx:16.26 | You are not two selves in conflict. What is | beyond God? If you who hold Him and whom He holds are the universe, |
| Tx:16.26 | is. You have taught this, and from far off in the universe, yet not | beyond yourself, the witnesses to your teaching have gathered to help |
| Tx:16.39 | which seems so dark and heavy, it is only needful to value truth | beyond all fantasy and to be entirely unwilling to settle for |
| Tx:17.8 | has escaped your notice, is a stride through time into eternity and | beyond all ugliness into beauty that will enchant you and will never |
| Tx:17.40 | it is—a picture of what you thought was real and nothing more. For | beyond this picture, you will see nothing. |
| Tx:17.41 | clear cut and unmistakable contrast, is transformed into what lies | beyond the picture. As you look on this, you realize that it is not a |
| Tx:17.57 | them in each situation separately, until you can more safely look | beyond each situation in an understanding far broader than you now |
| Tx:17.62 | No one will fail in anything. This seems to ask for faith | beyond you and beyond what you can give. Yet this is so only from the |
| Tx:17.62 | will fail in anything. This seems to ask for faith beyond you and | beyond what you can give. Yet this is so only from the viewpoint of |

| Tx:17.70 | so great it reaches past the stars and to the universe that lies | beyond them, your little faithlessness can make it useless if you |
| Tx:17.79 | Give as you have received. And demonstrate that you have risen far | beyond any situation that could hold you back and keep you separate |
| Tx:18.58 | and reach to Heaven. You whose hands are joined have begun to reach | beyond the body, but not outside yourselves, to reach your shared |
| Tx:18.58 | has experienced what he would call a sense of being transported | beyond himself. This feeling of liberation far exceeds the dream of |
| Tx:18.59 | this instead of the body and have let yourself be one with something | beyond it simply by not letting your mind be limited by it. |
| Tx:18.87 | outside ring of fear, but He would lead you safely through and far | beyond. |
| Tx:18.92 | light whereon they cast no shadows. Their shadows lie upon the world | beyond them, still further from the light. Yet from them to the light |
| Tx:18.94 | here does nothing interfere with love, letting it be itself. A step | beyond this holy place [of forgiveness], a step still further inward |
| Tx:18.95 | This course will lead to knowledge, but knowledge itself is still | beyond the scope of our curriculum. Nor is there any need for us to |
| Tx:18.95 | is there any need for us to try to speak of what must forever lie | beyond words. We need remember only that whoever attains the real |
| Tx:18.95 | words. We need remember only that whoever attains the real world, | beyond which learning cannot go, will go beyond it but in a different |
| Tx:18.95 | attains the real world, beyond which learning cannot go, will go | beyond it but in a different way. Where learning ends there God |
| Tx:18.97 | in which you were united is but the messenger of love, sent from | beyond forgiveness to remind you of all that lies beyond it. Yet it |
| Tx:18.97 | of love, sent from beyond forgiveness to remind you of all that lies | beyond it. Yet it is through forgiveness that it will be remembered. |
| Tx:19.9 | by withholding faith, you see what is unworthy of it and cannot look | beyond the barrier to what is joined with you. |
| Tx:19.13 | a body, but to a mind. And the mind that receives it looks instantly | beyond the body and sees the holy place where it was healed. There is |
| Tx:19.30 | This One can teach you how to look on time differently and see | beyond it, but not while you believe in sin. In error, yes; for this |
| Tx:19.33 | If sin were real, it would forever be | beyond the hope of healing. For there would be a power beyond God's, |
| Tx:19.33 | forever be beyond the hope of healing. For there would be a power | beyond God's, capable of making another will which could attack His |
| Tx:19.58 | for it. Communion is another kind of completion which goes | beyond guilt because it goes beyond the body. |
| Tx:19.58 | another kind of completion which goes beyond guilt because it goes | beyond the body. |
| Tx:19.61 | idea that love is fear. The Holy Spirit's messengers are sent far | beyond the body, calling the mind to join in holy communion and be at |
| Tx:19.90 | and of the universe of universes and of everything that lies even | beyond them would you remember. And as this memory rises in your |
| Tx:19.91 | like a heavy veil before the face of Christ. Yet as His face rises | beyond it, shining with joy because He is in His Father's Love, peace |
| Tx:19.91 | with glory appear as streams of blood, fades in the blazing light | beyond it when the fear of death is gone. |
| Tx:19.92 | This is the secret bargain made with the ego to keep what lies | beyond the veil forever blotted out and unremembered. Here is your |
| Tx:19.94 | is lost forever as love's attraction stirs and calls to you. From | beyond each of the obstacles to love, Love Itself has called, and |
| Tx:19.94 | each has been surmounted by the power of the attraction of what lies | beyond. Your wanting fear seemed to be holding them in place. Yet |
| Tx:19.94 | to be holding them in place. Yet when you heard the voice of love | beyond them, you answered and they disappeared. |
| Tx:19.96 | and you will nevermore believe that you are at the mercy of things | beyond you, forces you cannot control, and thoughts that come to you |
| Tx:19.96 | death can stand against your will. For what attracts you from | beyond the veil is also deep within you, unseparated from it and |
| Tx:19.97 | It does not open up its secrets and bid you look on them and go | beyond them. It would not have you see its weakness and learn it has |
| Tx:19.108 | Together we will disappear into the Presence | beyond the veil, not to be lost, but found; not to be seen, but |
| Tx:19.110 | over you in faith so gentle yet so strong that it would lift you far | beyond the veil and place the Son of God safely within the sure |
| Tx:19.110 | the long journey through this world whatever meaning lies in them. | Beyond this they are meaningless. You stand together, still without |
| Tx:20.3 | of crucifixion and delay him there. Help him to go in peace | beyond it, with the light of his own innocence lighting his way to |
| Tx:20.11 | and crown him king of death. Your chosen home is on the other side, | beyond the veil. It has been carefully prepared for you, and it is |
| Tx:20.13 | the new vision that looks upon the lilies and brings you joy. We go | beyond the veil of fear, lighting each other's way. The holiness that |
| Tx:20.14 | and his strong arm is free to guide you safely through them and | beyond. Walk with him now rejoicing, for the savior from illusions |
| Tx:20.38 | sings of the end of sin and fear. Each speaks in time of what is far | beyond it. Two voices raised together call to the hearts of everyone |
| Tx:20.39 | that rises from the meaningless attempt to judge what lies so far | beyond your judgment you cannot even see it? Judge not what is |
| Tx:20.57 | Yet what is that to those who have been given one true relationship | beyond the body? Can they be long held back from looking on the face |
| Tx:21.10 | Beyond the body, beyond the sun and stars, past everything you see | |
| Tx:21.10 | Beyond the body, | beyond the sun and stars, past everything you see and yet somehow |
| Tx:21.22 | is to make room for truth. You are not asked to make or do what lies | beyond your understanding. All you are asked to do is let it in; only |
| Tx:21.36 | their brothers in holiness, the power of belief and faith goes far | beyond the body, supporting vision, not obstructing it. But first |
| Tx:21.40 | past it, as do you. The faith and the belief you gave it belongs | beyond. You gave perception and belief and faith from mind to body. |
| Tx:21.50 | unreality. You will believe that you are helpless prey to forces far | beyond your own control and far more powerful than you. And you will |
| Tx:21.55 | and redirected from the goal of sin as are the others. For reason is | beyond the ego's range of means. |
| Tx:21.57 | have gained a means which cannot be applied to sin. Knowledge is far | beyond attainment of any kind. But reason can serve to open doors you |
| Tx:21.58 | And in this change is room made way for vision. Vision extends | beyond itself, as does the purpose which it serves and all the means |
| Tx:22.4 | It must extend, as you extended when you joined. It must reach out | beyond itself, as you reached out beyond the body to let yourselves |
| Tx:22.4 | when you joined. It must reach out beyond itself, as you reached out | beyond the body to let yourselves be joined. And now the sameness |
| Tx:22.23 | bless. Whose function is to save will save. How he will do it is | beyond your understanding, but when must be your choice. For time you |
| Tx:22.27 | Beyond the bodies that you interposed between you and shining in the | |
| Tx:22.27 | beloved of God Himself. How still it rests, in time and yet | beyond, immortal yet on earth. How great the power that lies in it. |
| Tx:22.28 | who is but willing to see his brother sinless. And no one can remain | beyond this willingness if you would be released entirely from all |
| Tx:22.33 | prevent correction. The body's eyes see only form. They cannot see | beyond what they were made to see. And they were made to look on |
| Tx:22.33 | strange perception, for they can see only illusions, unable to look | beyond the granite block of sin and stopping at the outside form of |
| Tx:22.34 | for seeing. See how the body's eyes rest on externals and cannot go | beyond. Watch how they stop at nothingness, unable to go beyond the |
| Tx:22.34 | cannot go beyond. Watch how they stop at nothingness, unable to go | beyond the form to meaning. Nothing so blinding as perception of |
| Tx:22.35 | you are seeing what can not be real as if it were. What cannot see | beyond what is not there must be distorted perception and must |
| Tx:22.36 | except what you associate with his body, which you believe can sin? | Beyond his errors is his holiness and your salvation. You gave him |
| Tx:22.41 | the Christ in you but will rejoice. How beautiful the sight you saw | beyond the veil which you will bring to light the tired eyes of those |
| Tx:22.49 | be long defended from what is quietly passed through and gone | beyond? |
| Tx:23.4 | distractions, lay Heaven aside? Your destiny and purpose are far | beyond them in the clean place where littleness does not exist. Your |
| Tx:23.5 | us not let littleness lead God's Son into temptation. His glory is | beyond it, measureless and timeless as eternity. Do not let time |
| Tx:23.13 | Being fragmented, they fragment. But truth is indivisible and far | beyond their little reach. You will remember what you know when you |
| Tx:23.18 | obscured in minds that have become illusion's battleground. Yet far | beyond this senseless war it shines, ready to be remembered when you |
| Tx:23.19 | and to truth. Let us, then, look upon them calmly, that we may look | beyond them, understanding what they are, not what they would |
| Tx:23.19 | govern nothing and need not be broken; merely looked upon and gone | beyond. |
| Tx:23.22 | For the destruction of the one who makes the error places him | beyond correction and beyond forgiveness. What he has done is thus |
| Tx:23.22 | of the one who makes the error places him beyond correction and | beyond forgiveness. What he has done is thus interpreted as an |
| Tx:23.25 | and justified in its attack. And now is conflict made inevitable and | beyond the help of God. And now salvation must remain impossible |
| Tx:23.37 | only the conflict of illusions stands; senseless, impossible, and | beyond all reason, and yet perceived as an eternal barrier to Heaven. |
| Tx:24.39 | dream in which God is bereft of what He loves and you remain | beyond salvation. Only this is certain in this shifting world which |
| Tx:24.52 | not escape its laws of violence and death. Yet it is given you to be | beyond its laws in all respects, in every way, and every |
| Tx:24.59 | self-maintained, in need of nothing, and unjoined with anything | beyond the body. In its eyes, you are a separate universe with all |
| Tx:24.71 | body made a theory of yourself with no provisions made for evidence | beyond itself and no escape within its sight. Its course is sure when |
| Tx:25.10 | to the truth, taking all false ideas of what you are and leading you | beyond them to the truth that is beyond them. All this can very |
| Tx:25.10 | of what you are and leading you beyond them to the truth that is | beyond them. All this can very simply be reduced to this: |
| Tx:25.27 | remains an instant to obscure the sinlessness that shines unchanged | beyond the pitiful attempts of specialness to put it out of mind |
| Tx:25.30 | change made possible. The Holy Spirit too sees what He sees as far | beyond the chance of change. But on His vision sin cannot encroach, |
| Tx:25.32 | which the aim is seen that makes the choice of means inevitable and | beyond the hope of change unless the aim is changed. And then the |
| Tx:25.36 | nothing after it. No other place, no other state nor time. Nothing | beyond nor nearer. Nothing else. In any form. This can you bring to |
| Tx:25.36 | your willingness to bring the light of Heaven with you as you walk | beyond the world of darkness into light? |
| Tx:25.55 | insane within the sight of love, whose gentle eyes would look | beyond the madness and rest peacefully on truth. Each sees a world |
| Tx:26.1 | Look at the world, and you will see nothing attached to anything | beyond itself. All seeming entities can come a little nearer or go a |

| Tx:26.17 | be as He created it. Nothing He loves but must be sinless and | beyond attack. Your special function opens wide the door beyond which |
| Tx:26.17 | sinless and beyond attack. Your special function opens wide the door | beyond which is the memory of His love kept perfectly intact and |
| Tx:26.19 | Yet is this magnitude | beyond the scope of this curriculum. Nor is it necessary we dwell on |
| Tx:26.19 | truth where they are judged to be untrue. This borderland is just | beyond the gate of Heaven. Here is every thought made pure and wholly |
| Tx:26.22 | difference is the learning goal this course has set. It will not go | beyond this aim. Its only purpose is to teach what is the same and |
| Tx:26.25 | world of sin into a simple world where justice can be reflected from | beyond the gate behind which total lack of limits lies. Nothing in |
| Tx:26.27 | for Heaven's altar to rise and tower far above the world and reach | beyond the universe to touch the heart of all creation? What is |
| Tx:26.52 | Sin is not error, for it goes | beyond correction to impossibility. Yet the belief that it is real |
| Tx:26.54 | because it still conceives of other choices and has not yet reached | beyond the world of choice entirely. |
| Tx:26.59 | why. Effects are seen as separate from their source and seem to be | beyond you to control or to prevent. What is thus kept apart can |
| Tx:26.68 | one illusion which takes different forms. If it has been projected | beyond your minds, you think of it as time. The nearer it is brought |
| Tx:27.3 | to hell. Yet this is writ in hell and not in Heaven, where you are | beyond attack and prove his innocence. The picture of yourself you |
| Tx:27.4 | The power of witness is | beyond belief because it brings conviction in its wake. The witness |
| Tx:27.4 | conviction in its wake. The witness is believed because he points | beyond himself to what he represents. A sick and suffering you but |
| Tx:27.5 | It witnesses to the eternal truth that you cannot be hurt and points | beyond itself to both your innocence and his. |
| Tx:27.6 | he will look on his forgiveness there and with healed eyes will look | beyond it to the innocence that he beholds in you. Here is the proof |
| Tx:27.16 | justified unless his sins have no effect to warrant guilt? Sins are | beyond forgiveness just because they would entail effects which |
| Tx:27.18 | before the ancient clarion call of life. This call has power far | beyond the weak and miserable cry of death and guilt. The ancient |
| Tx:27.32 | is what creation is. For this there are no symbols. Nothing points | beyond the truth, for what can stand for more than everything? Yet |
| Tx:27.33 | and learning done. No learning aid has use which can extend | beyond the goal of learning. When its aim has been accomplished, it |
| Tx:27.35 | nothing. Yet no other kind can be at all. Give welcome to the Power | beyond forgiveness and beyond the world of symbols and of |
| Tx:27.35 | kind can be at all. Give welcome to the Power beyond forgiveness and | beyond the world of symbols and of limitations. He would merely be, |
| Tx:27.48 | instant's radiance will light your eyes and give them sight to see | beyond all suffering and see Christ's face instead. Healing replaces |

| Tx:27.66 | which then bear witness to the cause and not themselves. Look, then, | beyond effects. It is not here the cause of suffering and sin must |
| Tx:28.14 | a different past or future. Its effects are changelessly eternal, | beyond fear, and past the world of sin entirely. |
| Tx:28.15 | flow across it, making it a bridge an instant will suffice to reach | beyond? For God has closed it with Himself. His memory has not gone |
| Tx:28.28 | What waits in perfect certainty | beyond salvation is not our concern. For you have barely started to |
| Tx:29.20 | Condemn your savior not because he thinks he is a body. For | beyond his dreams is his reality. But he must learn he is a savior |
| Tx:29.35 | If you but knew the glorious goal that lies | beyond forgiveness, you would not keep hold on any thought, however |
| Tx:29.37 | aside from dreaming of a world outside yourself. And leading finally | beyond all dreams unto the peace of everlasting life. |
| Tx:29.45 | illusion will impel him to seek out a thousand idols and to seek | beyond them for a thousand more. And each will fail him, all |
| Tx:29.53 | has not enslaved himself to littleness and loss. And thus must seek | beyond his little self for strength to raise his head and stand apart |
| Tx:29.57 | —the strange idea there is a power past omnipotence, a place | beyond the infinite, a time transcending the eternal. Here the world |
| Tx:29.58 | separated off from what is endless, has no place to be. An idol is | beyond where God has set all things forever and has left no room for |
| Tx:30.40 | you like. This is the purpose of an idol—that you will not look | beyond it to the source of the belief that you are incomplete. Only |
| Tx:30.40 | thus it would be necessary for the search for wholeness to be made | beyond the boundaries of limits on yourself. |
| Tx:30.42 | is the function of God's Son. He has no need to seek for it at all. | Beyond all idols stands his holy will to be but what he is. For more |
| Tx:30.45 | The Thoughts of God are far | beyond all change and shine forever. They await not birth. They wait |
| Tx:30.47 | Beyond all idols is the Thought God holds of you. Completely | |
| Tx:30.49 | you attack them for the things you think they represent. What lies | beyond them cannot be attacked. |
| Tx:30.54 | And you can make a simple choice that will forever place you far | beyond deception. You need not concern yourself with how this will be |
| Tx:30.59 | of forgiveness still remains. Yet everyone is certain he will go | beyond forgiveness, and he but remains until it is made perfect in |
| Tx:30.63 | is remembered. For He must be unremembered till His Son has reached | beyond forgiveness to the love of God. Yet is the love of Christ |
| Tx:30.74 | were, it would be necessary first there be some sin which stands | beyond forgiveness. There would be an error that is more than a |
| Tx:30.74 | —a special form of error which remains unchangeable, eternal, and | beyond correction or escape. There would be one mistake which had the |
| Tx:30.89 | is changeless. It does not deceive at all, and if you fail to see | beyond appearances, you are deceived. For everything you see will |
| Tx:30.90 | by showing they can change. Your brother has a changelessness in him | beyond appearance and deception both. It is obscured by changing |
| Tx:30.92 | at all. The cost of the belief there must be some appearances | beyond the hope of change is that the miracle cannot come forth from |
| Tx:31.6 | will you learn? What outcome is inevitable, sure as God, and far | beyond all doubt and question? Can it be your little learning, |
| Tx:31.10 | love restore the dying world! You do not understand Who calls to you | beyond each form of hate, each call to war. Yet you will recognize |
| Tx:31.11 | for this within yourself. But listen, rather, to the deeper call | beyond it that appeals for peace and joy. And all the world will give |
| Tx:31.35 | have learned their greatest lesson. All must reach this point and go | beyond it. It is true indeed there is no choice at all within the |
| Tx:31.36 | your learning now, and understand you but waste time unless you go | beyond what you have learned to what is yet to learn. For from this |
| Tx:31.50 | you will choose to follow this world's laws and never seek to go | beyond its roads nor realize the way you see yourself. Now must the |
| Tx:31.70 | will be your concept of yourself, when you have reached the world | beyond the sight your eyes alone can offer you to see. For you will |
| Tx:31.74 | from everything you see. At most, you glimpse a shadow of what lies | beyond. At least, you merely look on darkness and perceive the |
| Tx:31.80 | face of Christ to shine upon the one who asks in innocence to see | beyond the veil of old ideas and ancient concepts held so long and |
| Tx:31.96 | and who looks with fixed determination toward the light that shines | beyond in perfect constancy. Give me my own, for they belong to You. |
| W1:4.2 | The “good” ones of which you are aware are but shadows of what lies | beyond, and shadows make sight difficult. The “bad” ones are blocks |
| W1:14.3 | you directly into fear. You will not be left there. You will go far | beyond it. Our direction is toward perfect safety and perfect peace. |

| W1:61.9 | Today's idea goes far | beyond the ego's petty views of what you are and what your purpose |
| W1:66.4 | it appears to be different. Today's exercises are an attempt to go | beyond these differences in appearance, and recognize a common |
| W1:70.12 | for it. It is not there. It is past the clouds and in the light | beyond. Remember that you will have to go through the clouds before |
| W1:73.6 | it is not so. You cannot want this for yourself. There is a point | beyond which illusions cannot go. |
| W1:78.1 | as you raise it up before your eyes, you will not see the miracle | beyond. Yet all the while it waits for you in light, but you behold |
| W1:78.2 | Today we go | beyond the grievances to look upon the miracle instead. We will |

| W1:R2.3 | all fantasies and dreams. Trust it to see you through and carry you | beyond them all. |
| W1:85.5 | found outside and then brought in. But from within me it will reach | beyond, and everything I see will but reflect the light that shines |
| W1:89.2 | of the grievances, which are but illusions that hide the miracles | beyond. Now I would accept only what the laws of God entitle me to |
| W1:89.7 | my salvation. Let our grievances be replaced by miracles, [name]. | Beyond this is the miracle by which all my grievances are replaced. |

| W1:98.8 | you will bring the light to all the words you say, and you will go | beyond their sound to what they really mean. Today you practice with |
| W1:107.6 | and love which does not falter in the face of pain but looks | beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the gift of healing, for the |

| W1:122.5 | before you, like an open door with warmth and welcome calling from | beyond the doorway, bidding you to enter in and make yourself at home |
| W1:122.6 | that this is so, for here we have an answer, clear and plain, | beyond deceit in its simplicity. All the complexities the world has |
| W1:127.6 | today, you have advanced in distance without measure and in time | beyond the count of years to your release. |
| W1:128.1 | this thought as true, if he would leave this world behind and soar | beyond its petty scope and little ways. |
| W1:128.5 | lift the chains which bar the door to freedom from the world and go | beyond all little values and diminished goals. |
| W1:129.8 | Beyond this world there is a world I want. I choose to see that world | |
| W1:129.10 | lights of Heaven bend to you, to shine upon your eyelids as you rest | beyond the world of darkness. Here is light your eyes cannot behold. |
| W1:129.12 | The world I see has nothing that I want. | Beyond this world there is a world I want. |
| W1:130.5 | the other disappears. But one remains. They are the range of choice | beyond which your decision cannot go. The real and the unreal are all |
| W1:130.7 | minutes to the thought which ends all compromise and doubt and go | beyond them all as one. We will not make a thousand meaningless |
| W1:130.8 | Begin your searching for the other world by asking for a strength | beyond your own, and recognize what it is you seek. You do not want |
| W1:131.4 | to do so. Otherwise, you still are free to choose a goal that lies | beyond the world and every worldly thought and one which comes to you |
| W1:131.9 | He is here because He wills to be, and what He wills is present now | beyond the reach of time. |
| W1:131.14 | in your mind which you could not completely lock to hide what lies | beyond. |
| W1:131.16 | and see how easily the door swings open with your one intent to go | beyond it. Angels light the way, so that all darkness vanishes and |
| W1:131.17 | and all the seeking of the world, which ends together as you pass | beyond the door. |
| W1:134.10 | and the truth, between the world you see and that which lies | beyond, between the hell of guilt and Heaven's gate. |
| W1:135.7 | the body all the functions that you see in it and set its value far | beyond a little pile of dust and water. Who would make defense of |
| W1:135.8 | not abuse it by assigning it to roles it cannot fill, to purposes | beyond its scope, and to exalted aims which it cannot accomplish. |
| W1:136.4 | made it, so it seems to be external to your own intent—a happening | beyond your state of mind, an outcome with a real effect on you |
| W1:136.5 | you play in making your “reality” which makes defenses seem to be | beyond your own control. But what you have forgot can be remembered, |
| W1:136.9 | and the strange, haunting thought that you might be something | beyond this little pile of dust silenced and stilled. For see, this |
| W1:136.15 | Truth has a power far | beyond defense, for no illusions can remain where it has been allowed |
| W1:138.5 | lies, and as it is accepted, it is known. But knowledge is | beyond the goals we seek to teach within the framework of this |
| W1:139.7 | is set forever in the holy Mind of God and in your own. It is so far | beyond all doubt and question that to ask what it must be is all the |
| W1:140.9 | We will not be misled today by what appears to us as sick. We go | beyond appearances today and reach the source of healing from which |
| W1:145.1 | [129] | Beyond this world there is a world I want. |
| W1:151.10 | disaster, suffering, and loss. He gives you vision which can look | beyond these grim appearances and can behold the gentle face of |
| W1:151.11 | of reference, wholly unified and sure. And you will see the love | beyond the hate, the constancy in change, the pure in sin, and only |
| W1:151.12 | for your life is not a part of anything you see. It stands | beyond the body and the world, past every witness for unholiness, |
| W1:153.4 | in a form so grim that hope of sanity seems but to be an idle dream, | beyond the possible. The sense of threat the world encourages is so |
| W1:153.4 | sense of threat the world encourages is so much deeper and so far | beyond the frenzy and intensity of which you can conceive that you |
| W1:154.1 | Let us today be neither arrogant nor falsely humble. We have gone | beyond such foolishness. We cannot judge ourselves, nor need we do |
| W1:154.12 | a thousand more but will not know that God Himself has left no gift | beyond what you already have nor has denied the tiniest of blessings |
| W1:155.3 | need a teacher who perceives their madness, but who still can look | beyond illusion to the simple truth in them. |
| W1:157.2 | it can possibly attain. It leaves us there an instant and we go | beyond it, sure of our direction and our only goal. |
| W1:158.6 | Experience, unlearned, untaught, unseen, is merely there. This is | beyond our goal, for it transcends what needs to be accomplished. Our |
| W1:158.7 | body and mistake it for the Son whom God created. It beholds a light | beyond the body, an idea beyond what can be touched, a purity |
| W1:158.7 | Son whom God created. It beholds a light beyond the body, an idea | beyond what can be touched, a purity undimmed by errors, pitiful |
| W1:158.9 | they merely disappear because a vision of the holiness which lies | beyond them comes to take their place. It matters not what form they |
| W1:159.3 | Christ's vision is a miracle. It comes from far | beyond itself, for it reflects eternal love and the rebirth of love |
| W1:159.5 | at times forgot, and never able to obscure the light that shines | beyond them. Holiness has been restored to vision, and the blind can |
| W1:161.6 | easily become fear's symbols. You have many times been urged to look | beyond the body, for its sight presents the symbol of love's “enemy” |
| W1:162.4 | simply. For the words we use are mighty, and they need no thoughts | beyond themselves to change the mind of him who uses them. So wholly |
| W1:163.8 | take today. And it is given us to look past death and see the life | beyond. |
| W1:164.1 | the senseless busy world engenders, yet He hears them faintly, for | beyond them all He hears the song of Heaven and the Voice of God more |
| W1:164.2 | easily away before His sight. Its sounds grow dim. A melody from far | beyond the world increasingly is more and more distinct—an ancient |
| W1:164.3 | the call He hears. How quiet is the time you give to spend with Him | beyond the world. How easily are all your seeming sins forgot and all |
| W1:164.5 | the day when vain imaginings part like a curtain to reveal what lies | beyond them. Now is what is really there made visible, while all the |
| W1:164.6 | this day is sacred to the world. Your vision, given you from far | beyond all things within the world, looks back on them in a new |
| W1:164.7 | judge today. We will receive but what is given us from judgment made | beyond the world. Our practicing today becomes our gift of |
| W1:165.1 | this world seem real except your own denial of the truth which lies | beyond? What but your thoughts of misery and death obscure the |
| W1:165.7 | in His Name we practice as His Word directs we do. His sureness lies | beyond our every doubt. His love remains beyond our every fear. The |
| W1:165.7 | we do. His sureness lies beyond our every doubt. His love remains | beyond our every fear. The thought of Him is still beyond all dreams |
| W1:165.7 | His love remains beyond our every fear. The thought of Him is still | beyond all dreams and in our minds according to His Will. |
| W1:167.5 | can extend all that their source contains. In that they can go far | beyond themselves. But they cannot give birth to what was never given |
| W1:169.1 | of truth. It is the world's most lofty aspiration, for it leads | beyond the world entirely. It is past learning yet the goal of |
| W1:169.3 | Grace is not learned. The final step must go | beyond all learning. Grace is not the goal this course aspires to |
| W1:169.6 | present, where the past and future cannot be conceived. It lies | beyond salvation—past all thought of time, forgiveness, and the |
| W1:169.7 | This is | beyond experience we try to hasten. Yet forgiveness, taught and |
| W1:169.9 | Now we have work to do, for those in time can speak of things | beyond and listen to words which explain what is to come is past |
| W1:169.13 | it offers everyone. We do not ask for the unaskable. We do not look | beyond what grace can give. For this we can give in the grace that |
| W1:170.10 | with the appearance of a solid block, impenetrable, fearful and | beyond surmounting, is the fear of God Himself. Here is the basic |
| W1:170.11 | the fire comes from Him. And He is terrible above all else, cruel | beyond conception, striking down all who acknowledge Him to be their |
| W1:R5.15 | here conviction lies. We use the words, and try and try again to go | beyond them to their meaning, which is far beyond their sound. The |
| W1:R5.15 | try and try again to go beyond them to their meaning, which is far | beyond their sound. The sound grows dim and disappears as we approach |
| W1:I2.3 | And so we start our journey | beyond words by concentrating first on what impedes our progress |
| W1:I2.3 | first on what impedes our progress still. Experience of what exists | beyond defensiveness remains beyond achievement while it is denied. |
| W1:I2.3 | still. Experience of what exists beyond defensiveness remains | beyond achievement while it is denied. It may be there, but you |
| W1:181.1 | he is limited by what you have perceived in him. You do not look | beyond his errors. Rather, they are magnified, becoming blocks to |
| W1:181.1 | magnified, becoming blocks to your awareness of the Self that lies | beyond your own mistakes and past his seeming sins as well as yours. |
| W1:181.2 | you will not transcend their sight and see the sinlessness that lies | beyond. |
| W1:181.9 | For what we seek to look upon is really there. And as our focus goes | beyond mistakes, we will behold a wholly sinless world. When seeing |
| W1:182.8 | you will stay with Him in perfect stillness, silent and at peace, | beyond all words, untouched by fear and doubt, sublimely certain that |
| W1:184.8 | the world. Illusions, yes! But what is true in earth and Heaven is | beyond your naming. When you call upon a brother, it is to his body |
| W1:184.9 | It would indeed be strange if you were asked to go | beyond all symbols of the world, forgetting them forever; yet were |
| W1:184.14 | disappear which kept us blind. And we are given strength to see | beyond them. Now our sight is blessed with blessings we can give as |
| W1:185.5 | He has looked on them and found them wanting. Now he seeks to go | beyond them, recognizing that another dream would offer nothing more |
| W1:185.14 | the need of every heart, the call of every mind, the hope that lies | beyond despair, the love attack would hide, the brotherhood that hate |
| W1:186.5 | sure that it is so. The arrogant must cling to words, afraid to go | beyond them to experience which might affront their stance. Yet are |
| W1:186.6 | you that you have the strength, the wisdom, and the holiness to go | beyond all images. You are not weak, as is the image of yourself. You |
| W1:188.4 | the memory to you as well. From you salvation radiates with gifts | beyond all measure, given and returned. To you, the giver of the |
| W1:190.5 | to your mind can hurt or injure you in any way. There is no cause | beyond yourself that can reach down and bring oppression. No one but |
| W1:192.1 | in the world in its own terms. For who can understand a language far | beyond his simple grasp? |
| W1:196.12 | that does not go with you to help you reach that instant and to go | beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. When the fear of God is gone, |
| W1:199.2 | mind that serves the Holy Spirit is unlimited forever, in all ways, | beyond the laws of time and space, unbound by any preconceptions, and |
| W1:200.8 | leading from this fresh perception to the gate of Heaven and the way | beyond. Peace is the answer to conflicting goals, to senseless |
| W1:R6.5 | in between we have a function that transcends the world we see. | Beyond this and a repetition of the special thought we practice for |
| W1:R6.6 | We will attempt to get | beyond all words and special forms of practicing for this review. For |
| W1:R6.10 | the idea for the day, and let it take the place of what you thought. | Beyond such special applications of each day's idea, we will add but |
| W2:I.6 | of thanks from us, as through Christ's vision we behold a world | beyond the one we made and take that world to be the full replacement |
| W2:230.2 | be here now, for my creation was apart from time and still remains | beyond all change. The peace in which Your Son was born into Your |
| W2:243.1 | myself today. I will not think that I already know what must remain | beyond my present grasp. I will not think I understand the whole from |
| W2:252.1 | My Self is holy | beyond all the thoughts of holiness of which I now conceive. Its |
| W2:252.1 | move the world but from the boundless Love of God Himself. How far | beyond this world my Self must be, and yet how near to me and close |
| W2:264.1 | This, and nothing is that does not share Its holiness, that stands | beyond Your one creation or without the Love Which holds all things |
| W2:269.1 | You have chosen to become the way to show me my mistakes and look | beyond them. It is given me to find a new perception through the |
| W2:277.2 | God. He is not bound except by his beliefs. Yet what he is, is far | beyond his faith in slavery or freedom. He is free, because he is his |
| W2:WIHS.2 | it to the outcome He perceives for it, becomes the means to go | beyond itself, to be replaced by the Eternal Truth. |
| W2:281.2 | I will not hurt myself today. For I am far | beyond all pain. My Father placed me safe in Heaven, watching over |
| W2:284.1 | truth. I can elect to change all thoughts that hurt. And I would go | beyond these words today, go past all reservations, and arrive at |
| W2:299.1 | My holiness is far | beyond my own ability to understand or know. Yet God my Father, Who |
| W2:300.2 | give thanks today the world endures but for an instant. We would go | beyond that tiny instant to eternity. |
| W2:WISC.3 | in which learning ends in one last summary that will extend | beyond itself and reaches up to God. The Second Coming is the time in |
| W2:315.1 | moment. I am blessed with gifts throughout the day, in value far | beyond all things of which I can conceive. A brother smiles upon |
| W2:WICR.3 | is forever guaranteed inviolate, forever held within His holy will | beyond all possibility of harm, of separation, imperfection, and of |
| W2:WIE.2 | The ego is insane. In fear it stands | beyond the Everywhere, apart from All, in separation from the |
| W2:335.1 | is a choice. I never see my brother as he is, for that is far | beyond perception. What I see in him is merely what I wish to see |
| W2:336.1 | and sounds at best can serve but to recall the memory that lies | beyond them all. Forgiveness sweeps away distortions and opens the |
| W2:WIM.1 | what it sees is false. It undoes error but does not attempt to go | beyond perception nor exceed the function of forgiveness. Thus it |
| W2:342.1 | unreality to me. The key is in my hand, and I have reached the door | beyond which lies the end of dreams. I stand before the gate of |
| W2:344.1 | can an illusion offer me? Yet he whom I forgive will give me gifts | beyond the worth of anything on earth. Let my forgiven brothers fill |
| W2:354.1 | My oneness with the Christ establishes me as Your Son, | beyond the reach of time and wholly free of every law but Yours. I |
| W2:FL.1 | beginning of our practicing and only to remind us that we seek to go | beyond them. Let us turn to Him Who leads the way and makes our |
| W2:FL.1 | attacking and destroying, dangerous in all its ways, and treacherous | beyond the hope of trust and the escape from pain. |
| M:2.4 | Time really, then, goes backward to an instant so ancient that it is | beyond all memory and past even the possibility of remembering. Yet |
| M:4.12 | the world and all things in it, for the unchanging and unchangeable | beyond appearances, and for the Son of God and his Creator. How could |

| Tx:27.47 | within the world that could be feared. But if you shrink from | blessing will the world indeed seem fearful, for you have withheld |
| Tx:27.48 | on your returning to the world. And being blessed, you will bring | blessing. Life is given you to give the dying world. And suffering |
| Tx:27.48 | suffering eyes no longer will accuse, but shine in thanks to you who | blessing gave. The holy instant's radiance will light your eyes and |
| Tx:29.40 | this purpose as its own. Change is the only thing that can be made a | blessing here, where purpose is not fixed, however changeless it |

| Tx:30.36 | What cause have you for anger in a world which merely waits your | blessing to be free? If you be prisoner, then God Himself could not |
| Tx:30.64 | He delay in showing you the way that He must walk with you? His | blessing lies on you as surely as His Father's love rests upon Him. |

| W1:R4.12 | repeating first the thought that made the day a special time of | blessing and of happiness for us and through our faithfulness |
| W1:151.11 | hate, the constancy in change, the pure in sin, and only Heaven's | blessing on the world. |
| W1:153.9 | we will fulfill our chosen purpose as our ministry extends its holy | blessing through the world. |

| W1:187.8 | proves that error has arisen and correction must be made. Your | blessing will correct it. Given first to you, it now is yours to give |
| W1:188.3 | around the world. It pauses to caress each living thing and leave a | blessing with it which remains forever and forever. What it gives |
| W1:188.4 | you, the giver of the gift, does God Himself give thanks. And in His | blessing does the light in you shine brighter, adding to the gifts |
| W1:188.9 | devoid of sin, and open to salvation. And we lay our saving | blessing on it as we say: |
| W1:198.6 | will work. His words will save. His words contain all hope, all | blessing and all joy that ever can be found upon this earth. His |
| W1:207.1 | [187] I bless the world because I bless myself. God's | blessing shines upon me from within my heart where He abides. I need |

| W2:274.2 | A special | blessing comes to us today from Him Who is our Father. Give this day |
| W2:283.2 | our only Source and everything created part of us. And so we offer | blessing to all things, uniting lovingly with all the world, which |
| W2:308.1 | is now, without a past or future. He has come to give His present | blessing to the world, restoring it to timelessness and love. And |
| W2:WILJ.1 | corrected mind. And with this holy sight, perception gives a silent | blessing and then disappears, its goal accomplished and its mission |
| M:6.2 | and trust that it will be accepted when it is recognized as a | blessing and not a curse. |

| Tx:19.32 | attractive and believe that sin is precious. For the belief that | bodies limit mind leads to a perception of the world in which the |

| Tx:4.20 | he does this, although the child may. I can be entrusted with your | body and your ego simply because this enables you not to be concerned |
| Tx:4.32 | Bodily appetites are not physical in origin. The ego regards the | body as its home and does try to satisfy itself through the body, but |
| Tx:4.32 | the body as its home and does try to satisfy itself through the | body, but the idea that this is possible is a decision of the ego, |
| Tx:4.47 | unconscious thus contains the Call of God as well as the call of the | body. That is why the basic conflict between love and fear is |
| Tx:4.70 | is its lack of discrimination between impulses from God and from the | body. Any thought system which makes this confusion must be insane. |
| Tx:4.70 | Higher Source, then, makes some sense in ego-terms. But fear of the | body, with which the ego identifies so closely, is more blatantly |
| Tx:4.71 | The | body is the ego's home by its own election. It is the only |
| Tx:4.71 | is the belief that the ego sponsors eagerly. Yet the ego hates the | body because it does not accept the idea that the body is good enough |
| Tx:4.71 | the ego hates the body because it does not accept the idea that the | body is good enough to be its home. Here is where the mind becomes |
| Tx:4.71 | actually dazed. Being told by the ego that it is really part of the | body and that the body is its protector, the mind is also constantly |
| Tx:4.71 | told by the ego that it is really part of the body and that the | body is its protector, the mind is also constantly informed that the |
| Tx:4.71 | body is its protector, the mind is also constantly informed that the | body can not protect it. This, of course, is not only accurate but |
| Tx:4.72 | the ego that it has itself insisted that it is identified with the | body, so there is no point in turning to it for protection. The ego |
| Tx:4.77 | ego attempt is particularly noteworthy. The idea of preserving the | body by suspension, thus giving it the kind of limited immortality |
| Tx:4.103 | The medical orientation to rehabilitation emphasizes the | body, while the vocational orientation stresses the ego. The “team” |
| Tx:4.104 | down on by the ego because of its belief that nothing but a perfect | body is worthy as its own temple. |
| Tx:4.105 | A mind that recoils from a hurt | body is in great need of rehabilitation itself. All symptoms of hurt |
| Tx:5.64 | freedom. The guiltless mind cannot suffer. Being sane, it heals the | body because it has been healed. The sane mind cannot conceive of |
| Tx:6.7 | Assault can ultimately be made only on the | body. There is little doubt that one body can assault another and can |
| Tx:6.7 | ultimately be made only on the body. There is little doubt that one | body can assault another and can even destroy it. Yet if destruction |
| Tx:6.48 | something alien to itself in your mind, the ego turns to the | body, not the mind, as its ally, because the body is not part of you. |
| Tx:6.48 | the ego turns to the body, not the mind, as its ally, because the | body is not part of you. This makes the body the ego's friend. It is |
| Tx:6.48 | as its ally, because the body is not part of you. This makes the | body the ego's friend. It is an alliance frankly based on separation. |
| Tx:6.49 | The ego and the | body conspire against your minds, and because the ego realizes that |
| Tx:6.61 | When your | body and your ego and your dreams are gone, you will know that you |
| Tx:6.61 | through life, and life is of the mind and in the mind. The | body neither lives nor dies, because it cannot contain you who are |
| Tx:6.62 | God did not make the | body because it is destructible and therefore not of the Kingdom. The |
| Tx:6.62 | because it is destructible and therefore not of the Kingdom. The | body is the symbol of what you think you are. It is clearly a |
| Tx:6.62 | separation into a demonstration against it. If the mind can heal the | body but the body cannot heal the mind, then the mind must be |
| Tx:6.62 | a demonstration against it. If the mind can heal the body but the | body cannot heal the mind, then the mind must be stronger. Every |
| Tx:6.63 | that only the mind is real since only the mind can be shared. The | body is separate and therefore cannot be part of you. To be of one |
| Tx:6.63 | be part of you. To be of one mind is meaningful, but to be of one | body is meaningless. By the laws of mind, then, the body is |
| Tx:6.63 | but to be of one body is meaningless. By the laws of mind, then, the | body is meaningless. To the Holy Spirit, there is no order of |
| Tx:6.65 | knowledge. [You do not lose what you communicate.] The ego uses the | body for attack, for pleasure, and for pride. The insanity of this |
| Tx:6.65 | perception makes it a fearful one indeed. The Holy Spirit sees the | body only as a means of communication and because communicating is |
| Tx:7.13 | as separate largely because he perceives of himself as bounded by a | body. Only if he perceives himself as a mind can [he overcome this]. |
| Tx:7.39 | The | body is nothing more than a framework for developing abilities. It is |
| Tx:7.39 | need no elaboration here, but the Holy Spirit's decision to use the | body only for communication has such a direct connection with healing |
| Tx:7.40 | is also the impulse to create, the ego can only teach you that the | body can both communicate and create and therefore does not need the |
| Tx:7.40 | does not need the mind. The ego thus tries to teach you that the | body can act like the mind and is therefore self-sufficient. Yet we |
| Tx:7.41 | no other, because He does not accept the ego's confusion of mind and | body. Minds can communicate, but they cannot hurt. The body in the |
| Tx:7.41 | of mind and body. Minds can communicate, but they cannot hurt. The | body in the service of the ego can hurt other bodies, but this cannot |
| Tx:7.41 | of the ego can hurt other bodies, but this cannot occur unless the | body has already been confused with the mind. This fact, too, can be |
| Tx:7.51 | enlighten them, as I can enlighten yours. I do not want to share my | body in communion, because that is to share nothing. [Would I try to |
| Tx:8.53 | in any form enters your mind, you are equating yourself with a | body. This is the ego's interpretation of the body. You do not have |
| Tx:8.53 | yourself with a body. This is the ego's interpretation of the | body. You do not have to attack physically to accept this |
| Tx:8.53 | attack would have no appeal for you. When you equate yourself with a | body, you will always experience depression. When a Child of God |
| Tx:8.54 | Remember that the Holy Spirit interprets the | body only as a means of communication. Being the communication link |
| Tx:8.54 | have made in the light of what He is. The ego separates through the | body. The Holy Spirit reaches through it to others. You do not |
| Tx:8.54 | and uniting them with yours and mine. This interpretation of the | body will change your mind entirely about its value. Of itself it has |
| Tx:8.55 | If you use the | body for attack, it is harmful to you. If you use it only to reach |
| Tx:8.55 | of those who believe they are bodies and teach them through the | body that this is not so, you will begin to understand the power of |
| Tx:8.55 | the power of the mind that is in both of you. If you use the | body for this and only for this, you cannot use it for attack. In the |
| Tx:8.55 | unlimited what you have limited. The Holy Spirit does not see the | body as you do, because He knows the only reality anything can have |
| Tx:8.56 | Communication ends separation. Attack promotes it. The | body is beautiful or ugly, holy or savage, helpful or harmful, |
| Tx:8.56 | or harmful, according to the use to which it is put. And in the | body of another you will see the use to which you have put yours. If |
| Tx:8.56 | of another you will see the use to which you have put yours. If the | body becomes for you a means which you give to the Holy Spirit to use |
| Tx:8.59 | thought is not physical. Yet thought is communication, for which the | body can be used. This is the only natural use to which it can be |
| Tx:8.59 | This is the only natural use to which it can be put. To use the | body unnaturally is to lose sight of the Holy Spirit's purpose and |
| Tx:8.61 | In the world, not even the | body is perceived as whole. Its purpose is seen as fragmented into |
| Tx:8.61 | devotion to Him replaces devotion to the ego. In this sense, the | body does become a temple to God, because His Voice abides in it by |
| Tx:8.62 | Healing is the result of using the | body solely for communication. Since this is natural, it heals by |
| Tx:8.62 | but it can be made manifest through the physical if it uses the | body to go beyond itself. By reaching out, the mind extends itself. |
| Tx:8.62 | By reaching out, the mind extends itself. It does not stop at the | body, for if it does, it is blocked in its purpose. A mind which has |
| Tx:8.63 | are the normal expressions of a mind which is working through the | body but not in it. If the mind believes the body is its goal, it |
| Tx:8.63 | is working through the body but not in it. If the mind believes the | body is its goal, it will distort its perception of the body and, by |
| Tx:8.63 | believes the body is its goal, it will distort its perception of the | body and, by blocking its own extension beyond it, will induce |
| Tx:8.63 | it, will induce illness by fostering separation. Perceiving the | body as a separate entity cannot but foster illness because it is not |
| Tx:8.64 | simultaneously with the same thing and not suffer? Perception of the | body can be unified only by one purpose. This releases the mind from |
| Tx:8.64 | one purpose. This releases the mind from the temptation to see the | body in many lights and gives it over entirely to the One Light in |
| Tx:8.64 | aids or the learning's real purpose. Learning must lead beyond the | body to the reestablishment of the power of the mind in it. This can |
| Tx:8.65 | to God's joyous Teacher, and you must be learning amiss. To see a | body as anything except a means of pure extension is to limit your |
| Tx:8.65 | Health is therefore nothing more than united purpose. If the | body is brought under the purpose of the mind, the body becomes |
| Tx:8.65 | purpose. If the body is brought under the purpose of the mind, the | body becomes whole, because the mind's purpose is one. Attack can |
| Tx:8.65 | mind's purpose is one. Attack can only be an assumed purpose of the | body, because apart from the mind the body has no purpose at all. |
| Tx:8.65 | be an assumed purpose of the body, because apart from the mind the | body has no purpose at all. |
| Tx:8.66 | You are not limited by the | body, and thought cannot be made flesh. Yet mind can be manifested |
| Tx:8.66 | thought cannot be made flesh. Yet mind can be manifested through the | body if it goes beyond it and does not interpret it as limitation. |
| Tx:8.66 | it as limitation. Whenever you see another as limited to or by the | body, you are imposing this limit on yourself. Are you willing to |
| Tx:8.66 | learning should be to escape from limitations? To conceive of the | body as a means of attack of any kind and to entertain even the |
| Tx:8.67 | any of the results of your condemnation. When you see a brother as a | body, you are condemning him because you have condemned yourself. Yet |
| Tx:8.69 | Attitudes toward the | body are attitudes toward attack. The ego's definitions of everything |
| Tx:8.69 | to it. It does not equate it with what it is. To the ego, the | body is to attack with. Equating you with the body, it teaches that |
| Tx:8.69 | it is. To the ego, the body is to attack with. Equating you with the | body, it teaches that you are to attack with, because this is what it |
| Tx:8.69 | that you are to attack with, because this is what it believes. The | body, then, is not the source of its own health. The body's condition |
| Tx:8.71 | The | body exists in a world which seems to contain two voices which are |
| Tx:8.71 | fighting for its possession. In this perceived constellation, the | body is regarded as capable of shifting its control from one to the |
| Tx:8.71 | confusion between means and ends, as it always does. Regarding the | body as an end, the ego has no real use for it because it is not an |
| Tx:8.72 | has been particularly difficult to overcome the ego's belief in the | body as an end, because this is synonymous with the belief in attack |
| Tx:8.75 | It is still true that the | body has no function of itself, because it is not an end. The ego, |
| Tx:8.75 | Its sole aim is to lose sight of the function of everything. A sick | body does not make any sense. It could not make sense, because |
| Tx:8.75 | any sense. It could not make sense, because sickness is not what the | body is for. Sickness is meaningful only if the two basic premises on |
| Tx:8.75 | if the two basic premises on which the ego's interpretation of the | body rests are true. Specifically, these are that the body is for |
| Tx:8.75 | of the body rests are true. Specifically, these are that the | body is for attack and that you are a body. Without these premises, |
| Tx:8.75 | these are that the body is for attack and that you are a | body. Without these premises, sickness is completely inconceivable. |
| Tx:8.79 | The Holy Spirit teaches you to use your | body only to reach your brothers, so He can teach His message through |
| Tx:8.79 | it cannot be sick. Everything used otherwise is. Do not allow the | body to be a mirror of a split mind. Do not let it be an image of |
| Tx:8.79 | Health is the result of relinquishing all attempts to use the | body lovelessly. Health is the beginning of the proper perspective on |
| Tx:8.80 | ego tempts you to sickness, do not ask the Holy Spirit to heal the | body, for this would merely be to accept the ego's belief that the |
| Tx:8.80 | body, for this would merely be to accept the ego's belief that the | body is the proper aim for healing. Ask rather that the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:8.80 | rather that the Holy Spirit teach you the right perception of the | body, for perception alone can be distorted. Only perception can be |
| Tx:8.85 | The ego, which always weakens the will, wants to separate the | body from the mind. This is an attempt to destroy it, yet the ego |
| Tx:8.87 | you to be perfect, to heal all errors, to take no thought of the | body as separate, and to accomplish all things in my name. This is |
| Tx:8.88 | are not of one mind and that is sickness. Yet sickness is not of the | body, but of the mind. All forms of dysfunction are merely signs that |
| Tx:13.55 | value and will value it. A little piece of glass, a speck of dust, a | body or a war are one to you. For if you value one thing made of |
| Tx:15.72 | goes or what it thinks, for this seems unimportant. As long as the | body is there to receive its sacrifice, it is content. To the ego, |
| Tx:15.72 | it is content. To the ego, the mind is private, and only the | body can be shared. Ideas are basically of no concern, except as they |
| Tx:15.72 | shared. Ideas are basically of no concern, except as they draw the | body of another closer or farther. And it is in these terms that it |
| Tx:15.75 | Yet remember this—to be with a | body is not communication. And if you think it is, you will feel |
| Tx:15.76 | The illusion of the autonomy of the | body and its ability to overcome loneliness is but the working of the |
| Tx:15.76 | establish its own autonomy. As long as you believe that to be with a | body is companionship, you will be compelled to attempt to keep your |
| Tx:15.76 | you will be compelled to attempt to keep your brother in his | body, held there by guilt. And you will see safety in guilt and |
| Tx:15.85 | As the ego would limit your perception of your brothers to the | body, so would the Holy Spirit release your vision and let you see |
| Tx:15.86 | as wholly without gratification what you think you want. The | body is the symbol of the ego, as the ego is the symbol of the |
| Tx:15.87 | by God. In the holy instant, where the Great Rays replace the | body in awareness, the recognition of relationships without limits is |
| Tx:15.87 | see this, it is necessary to give up every use the ego has for the | body and to accept the fact that the ego has no purpose you would |
| Tx:15.87 | you would share with it. For the ego would limit everyone to a | body for its purposes, and while you think it has a purpose, you will |
| Tx:15.88 | make little and ineffectual. Limit your vision of a brother to his | body, which you will do as long as you would not release him from it, |
| Tx:15.88 | not release him from it, and you have denied his gift to you. His | body cannot give it. And seek it not through yours. Yet your minds |
| Tx:15.89 | Would you not exchange your little relationships for this? For the | body is little and limited, and only those whom you would see without |
| Tx:15.91 | When the | body ceases to attract you and when you place no value on it as a |
| Tx:15.91 | free as God's. As you let the Holy Spirit teach you how to use the | body only for purposes of communication and renounce its use for |
| Tx:15.91 | which the ego sees in it, you will learn you have no need of a | body at all. In the holy instant there are no bodies, and you |
| Tx:15.105 | As long as you perceive the | body as your reality, so long will you perceive yourself as lonely |
| Tx:15.107 | of love by teaching that communication remains unbroken, even if the | body is destroyed, provided that you see not the body as the |
| Tx:15.107 | even if the body is destroyed, provided that you see not the | body as the necessary means of communication. And if you understand |
| Tx:15.107 | you understand this lesson, you will realize that to sacrifice the | body is to sacrifice nothing, and communication, which must be of the |
| Tx:16.53 | two separate people on which each seeks to kill his self and on his | body raise another self which takes its power from his death. Over |
| Tx:16.61 | The special relationship is totally without meaning without a | body. And if you value it, you must also value the body. And what you |
| Tx:16.61 | meaning without a body. And if you value it, you must also value the | body. And what you value, you will keep. The special relationship is |
| Tx:16.61 | The special relationship is a device for limiting your self to a | body and for limiting your perception of others to theirs. The Great |
| Tx:16.61 | the special relationship if they were seen. For in seeing them, the | body would disappear because its value would be lost. And so your |
| Tx:16.63 | Across the bridge, it is so different! For a time the | body is still seen but not exclusively, as it is seen here. For the |
| Tx:16.63 | to littleness. Once you have crossed the bridge, the value of the | body is so diminished in your sight that you will see no need at all |
| Tx:16.63 | to magnify it. For you will realize that the only value which the | body has is to enable you to bring your brothers to the bridge with |
| Tx:17.16 | why all such relationships become the attempt at union through the | body, for only bodies can be seen as means for vengeance. That bodies |
| Tx:17.17 | In the unholy relationship, it is not the | body of the other with which union is attempted but the bodies of |
| Tx:17.17 | is attempted but the bodies of those who are not there. Even the | body of the other, already a severely limited perception of him, is |
| Tx:17.19 | “bliss.” How can the Holy Spirit bring His interpretation of the | body as a means of communication into relationships whose only |
| Tx:18.3 | from which the behavior stems. No one is seen complete. The | body is emphasized, with special emphasis on certain parts, and used |
| Tx:18.50 | You have displaced your guilt to your bodies from your minds. Yet a | body cannot be guilty, for it can do nothing of itself. You who think |
| Tx:18.51 | bodies are not. Only by assigning to the mind the properties of the | body does separation seem to be possible. And it is mind that seems |
| Tx:18.51 | and alone. Its guilt, which keeps it separate, is projected to the | body, which suffers and dies because it is attacked, to hold the |
| Tx:18.51 | Mind cannot attack, but it can make fantasies and direct the | body to act them out. Yet it is never what the body does that seems |
| Tx:18.51 | and direct the body to act them out. Yet it is never what the | body does that seems to satisfy. Unless the mind believes the body is |
| Tx:18.51 | the body does that seems to satisfy. Unless the mind believes the | body is actually acting out its fantasies, it will attack the body by |
| Tx:18.51 | the body is actually acting out its fantasies, it will attack the | body by increasing the projection of its guilt upon it. |
| Tx:18.52 | attack, but it maintains it can and uses what it does to hurt the | body to prove it can. The mind cannot attack, but it can deceive |
| Tx:18.52 | itself. And this is all it does when it believes it has attacked the | body. It can project its guilt, but it will not lose it through |
| Tx:18.52 | And though it clearly can misperceive the function of the | body, it cannot change its function from what the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:18.52 | its function from what the Holy Spirit establishes it to be. The | body was not made by love. Yet love does not condemn it and can use |
| Tx:18.53 | fantasies of vengeance to release from them? Your perception of the | body can clearly be sick, but project not this upon the body. For |
| Tx:18.53 | of the body can clearly be sick, but project not this upon the | body. For your wish to make destructive what cannot destroy can have |
| Tx:18.54 | It is insane to use the | body as the scapegoat for guilt, directing its attack and blaming it |
| Tx:18.54 | the fantasies you want, and they have nothing to do with what the | body does. It does not dream of them, and they but make it a |
| Tx:18.54 | a liability where it could be an asset. For fantasies have made your | body your “enemy,” weak, vulnerable, and treacherous, worthy of the |
| Tx:18.56 | to house your hate is not a prison but an illusion of yourself. The | body is a limit imposed on the universal communication which is an |
| Tx:18.57 | The | body is outside you, and but seems to surround you, shutting you off |
| Tx:18.58 | to Heaven. You whose hands are joined have begun to reach beyond the | body, but not outside yourselves, to reach your shared Identity |
| Tx:18.58 | together. Could this be outside you? Where God is not? Is He a | body, and did He create you as He is not and where He cannot be? You |
| Tx:18.59 | entails, you will realize that it is a sudden unawareness of the | body and a joining of yourself and something else in which your mind |
| Tx:18.59 | but merely accepting it. You have accepted this instead of the | body and have let yourself be one with something beyond it simply by |
| Tx:18.60 | it, letting your limits melt away, suspending all the “laws” your | body obeys and gently setting them aside. |
| Tx:18.61 | There is no violence at all in this escape. The | body is not attacked, but simply properly perceived. It does not |
| Tx:18.61 | of peace and joy, and, above all, the lack of awareness of the | body and of the questioning whether or not all this is possible. |
| Tx:18.63 | You still have too much faith in the | body as a source of strength. What plans do you make that do not |
| Tx:18.64 | have never done—not for one instant have you utterly forgotten the | body. It has faded at times from your sight, but it has not yet |
| Tx:18.64 | that the miracle of Atonement happens. Afterwards, you will see the | body again, but never quite the same. And every instant that you |
| Tx:18.65 | At no single instant does the | body exist at all. It is always remembered or anticipated, but never |
| Tx:18.66 | and long periods of meditation aimed at detachment from the | body necessary. All such attempts will ultimately succeed because of |
| Tx:18.69 | To do anything involves the | body. And if you recognize you need do nothing, you have withdrawn |
| Tx:18.69 | is to rest and make a place within you where the activity of the | body ceases to demand attention. Into this place the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:18.70 | are sent. For from this center will you be directed how to use the | body sinlessly. It is this center, from which the body is absent, |
| Tx:18.70 | how to use the body sinlessly. It is this center, from which the | body is absent, that will keep it so in your awareness of it. |
| Tx:18.71 | It is only the awareness of the | body that makes love seem limited. For the body is a limit on love. |
| Tx:18.71 | only the awareness of the body that makes love seem limited. For the | body is a limit on love. The belief in limited love was its origin, |
| Tx:18.71 | for it was made to limit you. Can you who see yourselves within a | body know yourself as an idea? Everything you recognize you identify |
| Tx:18.71 | something outside itself. You cannot even think of God without a | body or some form you think you recognize. |
| Tx:18.72 | The | body cannot know. And while you limit your awareness to its tiny |
| Tx:18.72 | not see the grandeur which surrounds you. God cannot come into a | body, nor can you join Him there. Limits on love will always seem to |
| Tx:18.72 | will always seem to shut Him out and to keep you apart from Him. The | body is a tiny fence around a little part of a glorious and complete |
| Tx:18.75 | in which those in a world inhabited by bodies seem to be. Each | body seems to house a separate mind, a disconnected thought living |
| Tx:18.81 | answer is inevitable. It will come because you came without the | body and interposed no barriers which would interfere with its glad |
| Tx:18.87 | no messages which speak of what lies underneath, for it is not the | body that could speak of this. Its eyes perceive it not; its senses |
| Tx:18.88 | The circle of fear lies just below the level the | body sees and seems to be the whole foundation on which the world is |
| Tx:18.88 | coverings and kept apart from what was made to keep it hidden. The | body cannot see this, for the body arose from this for its |
| Tx:18.88 | what was made to keep it hidden. The body cannot see this, for the | body arose from this for its protection, which must always depend on |
| Tx:18.89 | The | body will remain guilt's messenger and will act as it directs as long |
| Tx:19.2 | purpose real because you make it whole. And this is healing. The | body is healed because you came without it and joined the mind in |
| Tx:19.3 | The | body cannot heal because it cannot make itself sick. It needs no |
| Tx:19.3 | as separated from the Universal Purpose. When this occurs, the | body becomes its weapon used against this Purpose to demonstrate the |
| Tx:19.3 | Purpose to demonstrate the “fact” that separation has occurred. The | body thus becomes the instrument of illusion, acting accordingly; |
| Tx:19.4 | to illusions. For faithlessness is the perception of a brother as a | body, and the body cannot be used for purposes of union. If, then, |
| Tx:19.4 | For faithlessness is the perception of a brother as a body, and the | body cannot be used for purposes of union. If, then, you see your |
| Tx:19.4 | be used for purposes of union. If, then, you see your brother as a | body, you have established a condition in which uniting with him |
| Tx:19.4 | the Holy Spirit's purpose and brought illusions centered on the | body to stand between you. And the body will seem to be sick, for you |
| Tx:19.4 | brought illusions centered on the body to stand between you. And the | body will seem to be sick, for you have made of it an “enemy” of |
| Tx:19.6 | forever impossible to attain, for part of it is sought through the | body, thought of as a means for seeking out reality through attack, |
| Tx:19.6 | other part would heal and therefore calls upon the mind and not the | body. The inevitable compromise is the belief that the body must be |
| Tx:19.6 | and not the body. The inevitable compromise is the belief that the | body must be healed, and not the mind. For this divided goal has |
| Tx:19.6 | reality, which could be possible only if the mind is limited to the | body and divided into little parts of seeming wholeness but without |
| Tx:19.6 | of seeming wholeness but without connection. This will not harm the | body, but it will keep the delusional thought system in the mind. |
| Tx:19.8 | never separate from its source. The idea of separation produced the | body and remains connected to it, making it sick because of its |
| Tx:19.8 | of its identification with it. You think you are protecting the | body by hiding this connection, for this concealment seems to keep |
| Tx:19.13 | Who joined you and in Whom you are united. Grace is not given to a | body, but to a mind. And the mind that receives it looks instantly |
| Tx:19.13 | to a mind. And the mind that receives it looks instantly beyond the | body and sees the holy place where it was healed. There is the altar |
| Tx:19.16 | nothing, being lord of all along with his Creator. You can enslave a | body, but an idea is free, incapable of being kept in prison or |
| Tx:19.30 | which could change perception is thus kept impotent, held to the | body by the fear of changed perception which its teacher, who is one |
| Tx:19.32 | While you believe that your reality or your brother's is bounded by a | body, you will believe in sin. While you believe that bodies can |
| Tx:19.57 | Yet would I offer you my | body, you whom I love, knowing its littleness? Or would I teach that |
| Tx:19.57 | does not atone for sin. Yet you can live to show it is not real. The | body does appear to be the symbol of sin while you believe that it |
| Tx:19.58 | of completion which goes beyond guilt because it goes beyond the | body. |
| Tx:19.59 | across, and closely related to the first, is the belief that the | body is valuable for what it offers. For here is the attraction of |
| Tx:19.59 | it offers. For here is the attraction of guilt made manifest in the | body and seen in it. |
| Tx:19.61 | Is it a sacrifice or a release? What has the | body really given you that justifies your strange belief that in it |
| Tx:19.61 | love is fear. The Holy Spirit's messengers are sent far beyond the | body, calling the mind to join in holy communion and be at peace. |
| Tx:19.62 | It is only the messengers of fear that see the | body, for they look for what can suffer. Is it a sacrifice to be |
| Tx:19.69 | only with what already is at peace in you, immortal as itself. The | body can bring you neither peace nor turmoil; neither pain nor joy. |
| Tx:19.69 | end. It has no purpose of itself, but only what is given to it. The | body will seem to be whatever is the means for reaching the goal that |
| Tx:19.70 | with it, and what you think you are can never be apart from it. The | body is the great seeming betrayer of faith. In it lies |
| Tx:19.71 | It is impossible to seek for pleasure through the | body and not find pain. It is essential that this relationship be |
| Tx:19.71 | all. It is but the inevitable result of equating yourself with the | body, which is the invitation to pain. For it invites fear to enter |
| Tx:19.71 | of guilt must enter with it, and whatever fear directs the | body to do is therefore painful. It will share the pain of all |
| Tx:19.72 | Is not this inevitable? Under fear's orders, the | body will pursue guilt, serving its master whose attraction to guilt |
| Tx:19.72 | This, then, is the attraction of pain. Ruled by this perception, the | body becomes the servant of pain, seeking it dutifully and obeying |
| Tx:19.72 | is this idea that underlies all of the ego's heavy investment in the | body. And it is this insane relationship which it keeps hidden and |
| Tx:19.73 | Why should the | body be anything to you? Certainly what it is made of is not |
| Tx:19.73 | you the feelings that you want. Like any communication medium, the | body receives and sends the messages that it is given. It has no |
| Tx:19.74 | and free yourself. And to convince you this is possible, it bids the | body search for pain in attack upon another, calling it pleasure and |
| Tx:19.75 | the impossible is true. Forget not that the ego has dedicated the | body to the goal of sin and places in it all its faith that this can |
| Tx:19.75 | of guilt is the escape from pain. Not one but must regard the | body as himself, without which he would die, and yet within which is |
| Tx:19.81 | And what is the black-draped | body they would bury? A body which they dedicated to death, a symbol |
| Tx:19.81 | And what is the black-draped body they would bury? A | body which they dedicated to death, a symbol of corruption, a |
| Tx:19.81 | dedication to death. The glitter of guilt you laid upon the | body would kill it. For what the ego loves, it kills for its |
| Tx:19.82 | You have another dedication which would keep the | body incorruptible and perfect as long as it is useful for your holy |
| Tx:19.82 | and perfect as long as it is useful for your holy purpose. The | body no more dies than it can feel. It does nothing. Of itself, it is |
| Tx:19.83 | the one which seems to be the hardest can be accomplished first? The | body can but serve your purpose. As you look upon it, so will it seem |
| Tx:19.85 | grim commandments nor twisted rituals of condemnation to which the | body leads you. Ask not release of it. But free it from the merciless |
| Tx:19.88 | of fear, when any situation strikes you with terror and makes your | body tremble and the cold sweat of fear comes over it, remember it is |
| Tx:19.94 | of the quiet recognition that you love Him. The exaltation of the | body is given up in favor of the Spirit, which you love as you could |
| Tx:19.94 | in favor of the Spirit, which you love as you could never love the | body. And the appeal of death is lost forever as love's attraction |
| Tx:20.5 | Look upon all the trinkets made to hang upon the | body or to cover it or for its use. See all the useless things made |
| Tx:20.8 | If it be thorns whose points gleam sharply in a blood-red light, the | body is your chosen home, and it is separation that you offer me. And |
| Tx:20.41 | Your brother's | body is as little use to you as it is to him. When it is used only as |
| Tx:20.41 | the Holy Spirit teaches, it has no function, for minds need not the | body to communicate. The sight that sees the body has no use which |
| Tx:20.41 | for minds need not the body to communicate. The sight that sees the | body has no use which serves the purpose of a holy relationship. And |
| Tx:20.43 | to pain and death must be forgotten. This is no gift your brother's | body offers you. The veil that hides the gift hides him as well. He |
| Tx:20.46 | first is based on love and rests on it, serene and undisturbed. The | body does not intrude upon it. Any relationship in which the body |
| Tx:20.46 | The body does not intrude upon it. Any relationship in which the | body enters is based not on love, but on idolatry. Love wishes to be |
| Tx:20.48 | from the sun. It does not seek for power, but for relationships. The | body is the ego's chosen weapon for seeking power through |
| Tx:20.49 | The Holy Spirit's temple is not a | body, but a relationship. The body is an isolated speck of darkness; |
| Tx:20.49 | The Holy Spirit's temple is not a body, but a relationship. The | body is an isolated speck of darkness; a hidden secret room, a tiny |
| Tx:20.50 | You cannot make the | body the Holy Spirit's temple, and it will never be the seat of love. |
| Tx:20.51 | them as love's approach. Let love draw near them and overlook the | body, as it will surely do, and they retreat in fear, feeling the |
| Tx:20.51 | safe in your relationship and not your bodies. You have escaped the | body. Where you are the body cannot enter, for the Holy Spirit has |
| Tx:20.51 | and not your bodies. You have escaped the body. Where you are the | body cannot enter, for the Holy Spirit has set His temple there. |
| Tx:20.53 | instant which offers you peace and understanding? Then lay aside the | body and quietly transcend it, rising to welcome what you really |
| Tx:20.54 | held gently open, through which you walk together, leaving the | body thankfully behind and resting in the Everlasting Arms. Love's |
| Tx:20.55 | The | body is the ego's idol; the belief in sin made flesh and then |
| Tx:20.56 | is given him to choose to spend this instant paying tribute to the | body or let himself be given freedom from it. Here he can accept the |
| Tx:20.57 | that to those who have been given one true relationship beyond the | body? Can they be long held back from looking on the face of Christ? |
| Tx:20.61 | to see your brother as sinless and yet to look upon him as a | body. Is this not perfectly consistent with the goal of holiness? For |
| Tx:20.61 | be lifted so what was always true is recognized. To see a sinless | body is impossible, for holiness is positive, and the body is merely |
| Tx:20.61 | see a sinless body is impossible, for holiness is positive, and the | body is merely neutral. It is not sinful, but neither is it sinless. |
| Tx:20.61 | not sinful, but neither is it sinless. As nothing, which it is, the | body cannot meaningfully be invested with attributes of Christ or of |
| Tx:20.62 | The | body is the means by which the ego tries to make the unholy |
| Tx:20.62 | be attained but in illusion, and so the illusion of a brother as a | body is quite in keeping with the purpose of unholiness. Because of |
| Tx:20.62 | to wish, for sight is always secondary to desire. And if you see the | body, you have chosen judgment and not vision. For vision, like |
| Tx:20.63 | Who sees a brother's | body has laid a judgment on him and sees him not. He does not really |
| Tx:20.63 | it. And here in darkness is your brother's reality imagined as a | body, in unholy relationships with other bodies, serving the cause of |
| Tx:20.65 | The | body cannot be looked upon except through judgment. To see the body |
| Tx:20.65 | The body cannot be looked upon except through judgment. To see the | body is the sign that you lack vision and have denied the means the |
| Tx:20.65 | from Him Who would undo your teaching. His vision cannot see the | body because it cannot look on sin. And thus it leads you to reality. |
| Tx:20.66 | Your question should not be, “How can I see my brother without the | body?” Ask only, “Do I really wish to see him sinless?” And as you |
| Tx:20.69 | your vision and give you joy. And place no value on your brother's | body, which holds him to illusions of what he is. It is his desire to |
| Tx:20.70 | to be given. You have the vision which enables each one to see the | body not. And as you look upon each other, you will see an altar to |
| Tx:20.70 | upon it. What can you value more than this? Why do you think the | body is a better home, a safer shelter for God's Son? Why would you |
| Tx:20.71 | The | body is the sign of weakness, vulnerability, and loss of power. Can |
| Tx:21.7 | to lose the little that they have. And so it is with all who see the | body as all they have and all their brothers have. They try to reach |
| Tx:21.7 | again. And they adjust to loneliness, believing that to keep the | body is to save the little that they have. Listen and try to think if |
| Tx:21.10 | Beyond the | body, beyond the sun and stars, past everything you see and yet |
| Tx:21.11 | joined in you. Accept the vision which can show you this and not the | body. You know the ancient song and know it well. Nothing will ever |
| Tx:21.35 | you think is sin is limitation, and whom you try to limit to the | body you hate because you fear. In your refusal to forgive him, you |
| Tx:21.35 | fear. In your refusal to forgive him, you would condemn him to the | body because the means for sin are dear to you. And so the body has |
| Tx:21.35 | to the body because the means for sin are dear to you. And so the | body has your faith and your belief. But holiness would set your |
| Tx:21.36 | Those who would free their brothers from the | body can have no fear. They have renounced the means for sin by |
| Tx:21.36 | in holiness, the power of belief and faith goes far beyond the | body, supporting vision, not obstructing it. But first they chose to |
| Tx:21.38 | you cannot see because of it. For sacrifice must be exacted of a | body and by another body. The mind could neither ask it nor receive |
| Tx:21.38 | of it. For sacrifice must be exacted of a body and by another | body. The mind could neither ask it nor receive it of itself. And no |
| Tx:21.38 | could neither ask it nor receive it of itself. And no more could the | body. The intention is in the mind, which tries to use the body to |
| Tx:21.38 | could the body. The intention is in the mind, which tries to use the | body to carry out the means for sin in which the mind believes. Thus |
| Tx:21.38 | for sin in which the mind believes. Thus is the joining of mind and | body an inescapable belief of those who value sin. And so is |
| Tx:21.40 | The | body was made to be a sacrifice to sin, and in the darkness so it |
| Tx:21.40 | beyond. You gave perception and belief and faith from mind to | body. Let them now be given back to what produced them and can use |
| Tx:21.51 | as natural. They are as simple and natural to It as breathing to the | body. They are the obvious response to calls for help, the only one |
| Tx:21.61 | could this be. Nor could one mind think only for itself unless the | body were the mind. For only bodies can be separate and therefore |
| Tx:21.62 | But the insane know not their will. For they believe they see the | body and let their madness tell them it is real. Reason would be |
| Tx:21.62 | real. Reason would be incapable of this. And if you would defend the | body against your reason, you will not understand the body or |
| Tx:21.62 | defend the body against your reason, you will not understand the | body or yourself. |
| Tx:21.63 | The | body does not separate you from your brother, and if you think it |
| Tx:21.63 | believes it also has the means to make its purpose real. To see the | body as a barrier between what reason tells you must be joined must |
| Tx:22.3 | no difference between these selves, for differences are only of the | body. Therefore, he looks on nothing he would take. He denies not his |
| Tx:22.4 | It must reach out beyond itself, as you reached out beyond the | body to let yourselves be joined. And now the sameness which you saw |
| Tx:22.6 | vision sees. This you would understand. The brain interprets to the | body, of which it is a part. But what it says, you cannot understand. |
| Tx:22.8 | be. This is the emotion of secrecy, of private thoughts, and of the | body. This is the one emotion that opposes love and always leads to |
| Tx:22.13 | you that they must have seen each other through a vision not of the | body and communicated in a language the body does not speak. Nor |
| Tx:22.13 | through a vision not of the body and communicated in a language the | body does not speak. Nor could it be a fearful sight or sound that |
| Tx:22.36 | brother not be blocked by your perception of his sins and of his | body. What is there in him that you would attack except what you |
| Tx:22.36 | in him that you would attack except what you associate with his | body, which you believe can sin? Beyond his errors is his holiness |
| Tx:22.49 | foundation. Yes, to the body's eyes it looks like an enormous solid | body, immovable as is a mountain. Yet within you there is a Force |
| Tx:22.49 | Yet within you there is a Force which no illusions can resist. This | body only seems to be immovable; this Force is irresistible in truth. |
| Tx:22.51 | Do you want freedom of the | body or of the mind? For both you cannot have. Which do you value? |
| Tx:22.51 | it is and can be found. He will believe it possible of mind or | body, and he will make the other serve his choice as means to find it. |
| Tx:22.52 | Where freedom of the | body has been chosen, the mind is used as means whose value lies in |
| Tx:22.52 | to contrive ways to achieve the body's freedom. Yet freedom of the | body has no meaning, and so the mind is dedicated to serve illusions. |
| Tx:22.53 | is the only service which leads to freedom. To serve this end, the | body must be perceived as sinless because the goal is sinlessness. |
| Tx:23.9 | on grounds that have no meaning. For your beliefs converge upon the | body, the ego's chosen home, which you believe is yours. You meet at |
| Tx:23.11 | It is forgotten in the body's life, and if you think you are a | body, you will believe you have forgotten it. Yet truth can never be |
| Tx:23.29 | enemy and hidden where you would not think to look. He hid it in his | body, making it the cover for his guilt, the hiding place for what |
| Tx:23.29 | his guilt, the hiding place for what belongs to you. Now must his | body be destroyed and sacrificed that you may have that which belongs |
| Tx:23.30 | Behold, unveiled, the ego's secret gift, torn from your brother's | body, hidden there in malice and in hatred for the one to whom the |
| Tx:23.46 | of protection stands against the faith in murder. Here stands the | body, torn between the natural desire to communicate and the |
| Tx:23.48 | from one another. So will they be to those who see God's Son a | body. For it is not the body that is like the Son's Creator. And what |
| Tx:23.48 | So will they be to those who see God's Son a body. For it is not the | body that is like the Son's Creator. And what is lifeless cannot be |
| Tx:23.48 | Creator. And what is lifeless cannot be the Son of Life. How can a | body be extended to hold the universe? Can it create and be what it |
| Tx:23.49 | God does not share His function with a | body. He gave the function to create unto His Son because it is His |
| Tx:23.53 | unifies, and those who share a purpose have a mind as one. The | body has no purpose and must be solitary. From below, it cannot be |
| Tx:23.53 | it exerts on those in battle still are gone and not perceived. The | body stands between the Father and the Heaven He created for His Son |
| Tx:23.55 | perfection? For everything fought for on the battleground is of the | body—something it seems to offer or to own. No one who knows that |
| Tx:24.7 | you are and what your brother is. And here is what must make the | body dear and worth preserving. Specialness must be defended. |
| Tx:24.24 | The hope of specialness makes it seem possible God made the | body as the prison-house which keeps His Son from Him. For it demands |
| Tx:24.35 | What could the purpose of the | body be but specialness? And it is this that makes it frail and |
| Tx:24.35 | cannot change. But what they hold as purpose can be changed, and | body states must shift accordingly. Of itself the body can do |
| Tx:24.35 | be changed, and body states must shift accordingly. Of itself the | body can do nothing. See it as means to hurt, and it is hurt. See it |
| Tx:24.54 | hold the vision you were meant to see from you. Your brother's | body shows not Christ to you. He is set forth within his holiness. |
| Tx:24.55 | Choose, then, his | body or his holiness as what you want to see, and which you choose is |
| Tx:24.55 | denial of Christ in him. And where is your salvation if he is but a | body? Where is your peace but in his holiness? And where is God |
| Tx:24.56 | Christ in you beholds his holiness. Your specialness looks on his | body and beholds him not. |
| Tx:24.59 | in need of nothing, and unjoined with anything beyond the | body. In its eyes, you are a separate universe with all the power to |
| Tx:24.61 | You who believe it easier to see your brother's | body than his holiness, be sure you understand what made this |
| Tx:24.65 | Ask yourself this: can you protect the mind? The | body, yes, a little—not from time, but temporarily. And much you |
| Tx:24.70 | Look at yourself, and you will see a | body. Look at this body in a different light, and it looks different. |
| Tx:24.70 | Look at yourself, and you will see a body. Look at this | body in a different light, and it looks different. And without a |
| Tx:24.71 | Thus is the | body made a theory of yourself with no provisions made for evidence |
| Tx:24.71 | Him joy and witness to His love and shared His purpose, so does the | body testify to the idea that made it and speak for its reality and |
| Tx:25.1 | The Christ in you inhabits not a | body. Yet He is in you. And thus it must be that you are not within a |
| Tx:25.1 | Yet He is in you. And thus it must be that you are not within a | body. What is within you cannot be outside. And it is certain that |
| Tx:25.2 | holiness, as plain to see as is his specialness set forth within his | body. |
| Tx:25.3 | The | body needs no healing. But the mind that thinks it is a body is sick |
| Tx:25.3 | The body needs no healing. But the mind that thinks it is a | body is sick indeed! And it is here that Christ sets forth the |
| Tx:25.3 | it is here that Christ sets forth the remedy. His purpose folds the | body in His light and fills it with the holiness that shines from |
| Tx:25.3 | it with the holiness that shines from Him. And nothing that the | body says or does but makes Him manifest. To those who know Him not, |
| Tx:25.4 | it is He Who does it. And in the doing of it will you learn the | body merely seems to be the means to do it. For the mind is His. And |
| Tx:25.4 | the mind is His. And so it must be yours. His holiness directs the | body through the mind at one with Him. And you are manifest unto your |
| Tx:25.5 | Perception tells you, you are manifest in what you see. Behold the | body, and you will believe that you are there. And every body that |
| Tx:25.5 | Behold the body, and you will believe that you are there. And every | body that you look upon reminds you of yourself—your sinfulness, |
| Tx:25.5 | are one. And you must see your brother as yourself. Framed in his | body, you will see your sinfulness wherein you stand condemned. Set |
| Tx:25.7 | all that it looks upon unto itself. Its radiance shines through each | body that it looks upon and brushes all its darkness into light |
| Tx:25.16 | if a masterpiece were there to see? Yet if you see your brother as a | body, it is but this you do. The masterpiece that God has set within |
| Tx:25.16 | that God has set within this frame is all there is to see. The | body holds it for a while without obscuring it in any way. Yet what |
| Tx:25.27 | of specialness to put it out of mind where it must be and light the | body up instead of it. The lamps of Heaven are not for it to choose |
| Tx:26.1 | of the central theme that somebody must lose. Its focus on the | body is apparent, for it is always an attempt to limit loss. The body |
| Tx:26.1 | the body is apparent, for it is always an attempt to limit loss. The | body is itself a sacrifice—a giving up of power in the name of |
| Tx:26.1 | of saving just a little for yourself. To see a brother in another | body separate from yours is the expression of a wish to see a little |
| Tx:26.3 | The little that the | body fences off becomes the self, preserved through sacrifice of all |
| Tx:26.3 | For giving and receiving are the same. And to accept the limits of a | body is to impose these limits on each brother whom you see. For you |
| Tx:26.4 | The | body is a loss and can be made to sacrifice. And while you see your |
| Tx:26.4 | and can be made to sacrifice. And while you see your brother as a | body, apart from you and separate in his cell, you are demanding |
| Tx:26.7 | God willed not they be. In Heaven God's Son is not imprisoned in a | body nor is sacrificed in solitude to sin. |
| Tx:26.54 | to him. This separating off is symbolized in your perception by a | body which is clearly separate and a thing apart. Yet what this |
| Tx:26.70 | time is not the enemy that you perceive. Time is as neutral as the | body is except in terms of what you see it for. If you would keep a |
| Tx:27.5 | Holy Spirit lays a picture of a different you. It is a picture of a | body still, for what you really are cannot be seen nor pictured. Yet |
| Tx:27.7 | tongues. And yet to both the message is the same. Adornment of the | body seeks to show how lovely are the witnesses for guilt. Concerns |
| Tx:27.7 | to show how lovely are the witnesses for guilt. Concerns about the | body demonstrate how frail and vulnerable is your life, how easily |
| Tx:27.9 | cherish little pleasures where you can. Yet in this picture is the | body not perceived as neutral and without a goal inherent in itself. |
| Tx:27.10 | function is can never be! The Holy Spirit's picture changes not the | body into something it is not. It only takes away from it all signs |
| Tx:27.11 | its peace can come and perfect healing take the place of death. The | body can become a sign of life, a promise of redemption, and a breath |
| Tx:27.12 | The simple way to let this be achieved is merely this—to let the | body have no purpose from the past, when you were sure you knew its |
| Tx:27.13 | and will attack again. Protect him not, because your damaged | body shows that you must be protected from him. To forgive may be an |
| Tx:27.16 | forgiving, offering salvation to your brother and yourself. A broken | body shows the mind has not been healed. A miracle of healing proves |
| Tx:27.17 | Your | body can be means to teach that it has never suffered pain because of |
| Tx:27.39 | one which you should choose. The others are not true. What can the | body get that you would want the most of all? It is your servant and |
| Tx:27.54 | Pain demonstrates the | body must be real. It is a loud, obscuring voice whose shrieks would |
| Tx:27.54 | purpose is the same as pleasure, for they both are means to make the | body real. What shares a common purpose is the same. This is the law |
| Tx:27.55 | is the same and carries but one message: “You are here within this | body, and you can be hurt. You can have pleasure, too, but only at |
| Tx:27.56 | This | body, purposeless within itself, holds all your memories and all your |
| Tx:27.57 | God's Witness sees no witnesses against the | body. Neither does He harken to the witnesses by other names which |
| Tx:27.57 | Him Who knows no death. Each miracle He brings is witness that the | body is not real. Its pains and pleasures does He heal alike, for all |
| Tx:27.77 | The | body is the central figure in the dreaming of the world. There is no |
| Tx:27.77 | of how it was made by other bodies, born into the world outside the | body, lives a little while and dies, to be united in the dust with |
| Tx:27.78 | The dreaming of the world takes many forms, because the | body seeks in many ways to prove it is autonomous and real. It puts |
| Tx:27.80 | out of places and events which it contrives. That this is all the | body does is true, for it is but a figure in a dream. But who reacts |
| Tx:27.81 | No one believes there really was a time when he knew nothing of a | body and could never have conceived this world as real. He would have |
| Tx:27.83 | can attack itself; a separate brother as an enemy; a mind within a | body, all are forms of circularity whose ending starts at its |
| Tx:27.83 | its vengeance, not your own. It keeps you narrowly confined within a | body, which it punishes because of all the sinful things the body |
| Tx:27.83 | a body, which it punishes because of all the sinful things the | body does within its dream. You have no power to make the body stop |
| Tx:27.83 | things the body does within its dream. You have no power to make the | body stop its evil deeds because you did not make it and cannot |
| Tx:28.5 | does not write the message nor appoint what it is for. Like to the | body, it is purposeless within itself. And if it seems to serve to |
| Tx:28.17 | without a barrier or limitation. Thus is purity not of the | body. Nor can it be found where limitation is. The body can be healed |
| Tx:28.17 | purity not of the body. Nor can it be found where limitation is. The | body can be healed by its effects, which are as limitless as is |
| Tx:28.17 | healing come about because the mind is recognized as not within the | body, and its innocence is quite apart from it and where all healing |
| Tx:28.18 | causelessness is given no effects and none are seen. A mind within a | body and a world of other bodies, each with separate minds, are your |
| Tx:28.20 | In dreams of murder and attack are you the victim in a dying | body slain. But in forgiving dreams is no one asked to be the victim |
| Tx:28.23 | hated his Creator, so the figures in the dream have hated him. His | body is their slave which they abuse because the motives he has given |
| Tx:28.23 | for the vengeance it would offer them. It is their vengeance on the | body which appears to prove the dreamer could not be the maker of the |
| Tx:28.26 | effects. And where effects are gone, there is no cause. Thus is the | body healed by miracles because they show the mind made sickness and |
| Tx:28.26 | miracles because they show the mind made sickness and employed the | body to be victim or effect of what it made. Yet half the lesson will |
| Tx:28.26 | teach the whole. The miracle is useless if you learn but that the | body can be healed, for this is not the lesson it was sent to teach. |
| Tx:28.26 | was sent to teach. The lesson is the mind was sick that thought the | body could be sick; projecting out its guilt caused nothing and had |
| Tx:28.27 | effects of taking back the consequence of sickness to its cause. The | body is released because the mind acknowledges “this is not done to |
| Tx:28.29 | it perceive itself as separate and apart from you. Thus is the | body not perceived as sick by both your minds, from separate points |
| Tx:28.31 | cause that sickness has. For it was made to keep you separated in a | body which you see as if it were the cause of pain. |
| Tx:28.32 | The cause of pain is separation, not the | body, which is only its effect. Yet separation is but empty space, |
| Tx:28.39 | is to you. He is not brother made by what he dreams, nor is his | body, “hero” of the dream, your brother. It is his reality that is |
| Tx:28.39 | as is yours to him. Your mind and his are joined in brotherhood. His | body and his dreams but seem to make a little gap, where yours have |
| Tx:28.50 | voices which its ears were made to hear. Yet sights and sounds the | body can perceive are meaningless. It cannot see nor hear. It does |
| Tx:28.54 | Who punishes the | body is insane. For here the little gap is seen, and yet it is not |
| Tx:28.56 | The thing you hate and fear and loathe and want, the | body does not know. You send it forth to seek for separation and to |
| Tx:28.57 | The | body represents the gap between the little bit of mind you call your |
| Tx:28.58 | Sickness is anger taken out upon the | body, so that it will suffer pain. It is the obvious effect of what |
| Tx:28.62 | his home upon a straw and count on it as shelter from the wind? The | body can be made a home like this because it lacks foundation in the |
| Tx:28.63 | With this as purpose is the | body healed. It is not used to witness to the dream of separation and |
| Tx:28.66 | between the safety of this shelter and its Source? From here the | body can be seen as what it is and neither less nor more in worth |
| Tx:29.4 | of separation, which protect you from the “sacrifice” of love. The | body saves you, for it gets away from total sacrifice and gives you |
| Tx:29.5 | The | body could not separate your minds unless you wanted it to be a cause |
| Tx:29.6 | The | body will accommodate to this if you would have it so. It will allow |
| Tx:29.8 | The | body, innocent of any goal, is your excuse for variable goals you |
| Tx:29.8 | any goal, is your excuse for variable goals you hold and force the | body to maintain. You do not fear its weakness, but its lack of |
| Tx:29.8 | no more. There is a wariness that is aroused by learning that the | body is not real. And there are overtones of seeming fear around the |
| Tx:29.9 | serve to hold you back an instant from His love? Would you allow the | body to say “no” to Heaven's calling, were you not afraid to find a |
| Tx:29.16 | The | body does not change. It represents the larger dream that change is |
| Tx:29.16 | things. And they reflect the teacher who is teaching them. The | body can appear to change with time, with sickness or with health, |
| Tx:29.16 | the mind remains unchanged in its belief of what the purpose of the | body is. |
| Tx:29.17 | Sickness is a demand the | body be a thing that it is not. Its nothingness is guarantee that it |
| Tx:29.18 | The | body that is asked to be a god will be attacked because its |
| Tx:29.19 | As “something” is the | body asked to be God's enemy, replacing what He is with littleness |
| Tx:29.19 | limit and despair. It is His loss you celebrate when you behold the | body as a thing you love, or look upon it as a thing you hate. For if |
| Tx:29.20 | Condemn your savior not because he thinks he is a | body. For beyond his dreams is his reality. But he must learn he is a |
| Tx:29.21 | he made, that he be free of it. He must see someone else as not a | body, one with him, without the wall the world has built to keep |
| Tx:29.22 | within the darkness, you will see that God Himself is where his | body is. Before this light the body disappears, as heavy shadows must |
| Tx:29.22 | see that God Himself is where his body is. Before this light the | body disappears, as heavy shadows must give way to light. The |
| Tx:29.28 | some function which you have assigned, some goal which an event, or | body, or a thing should represent and should achieve for you. If it |
| Tx:29.42 | This world will bind your feet and tie your hands and kill your | body only if you think that it was made to crucify God's Son. For |
| Tx:29.44 | all the rest of it is not. This is the purpose he bestows upon the | body—that it seek for what he lacks and give him what would make |
| Tx:29.52 | And it is this which never is perceived and recognized. Be it a | body or a thing, a place, a situation or a circumstance, an object |
| Tx:31.28 | but actions. Bodies act, and minds do not. And therefore must the | body be at fault for what it does. It is not seen to be a passive |
| Tx:31.28 | and doing nothing of itself at all. If you are sin you are a | body, for the mind acts not. And purpose must be in the body, not the |
| Tx:31.28 | you are a body, for the mind acts not. And purpose must be in the | body, not the mind. The body must act on its own and motivate itself. |
| Tx:31.28 | mind acts not. And purpose must be in the body, not the mind. The | body must act on its own and motivate itself. If you are sin, you |
| Tx:31.28 | and motivate itself. If you are sin, you lock the mind within the | body, and you give its purpose to its prison-house, which acts |
| Tx:31.29 | Yet is the | body prisoner and not the mind. The body thinks no thoughts. It has |
| Tx:31.29 | Yet is the body prisoner and not the mind. The | body thinks no thoughts. It has no power to learn, to pardon, nor |
| Tx:31.29 | sick within itself. Learning is all that causes change. And so the | body, where no learning can occur, could never change unless the mind |
| Tx:31.29 | learning can occur, could never change unless the mind preferred the | body change in its appearances to suit the purpose given by the mind. |
| Tx:31.30 | The mind that thinks it is a sin has but one purpose—that the | body be the source of sin and keep it in the prison-house it chose |
| Tx:31.31 | and that it has been given you to change what you believe. The | body will but follow. It can never lead you where you would not be. |
| Tx:31.31 | not guard your sleep nor interfere with your awakening. Release your | body from imprisonment, and you will see no one as prisoner to what |
| Tx:31.62 | in your own belief. If you choose flesh, you never will escape the | body as your own reality, for you have chosen that you want it so. |
| Tx:31.63 | Salvation is undoing. If you choose to see the | body, you behold a world of separation, unrelated things, and |
| Tx:31.64 | Salvation does not ask that you behold the Spirit and perceive the | body not. It merely asks that this should be your choice. For you can |
| Tx:31.64 | It merely asks that this should be your choice. For you can see the | body without help but do not understand how to behold a world apart |
| Tx:31.66 | and so it looks on you with eyes that see as yours. Are you a | body? So is all the world perceived as treacherous and out to kill. |
| Tx:31.70 | In terms of concepts, it is thus you see him more than just a | body, for the good is never what the body seems to be. The actions of |
| Tx:31.70 | you see him more than just a body, for the good is never what the | body seems to be. The actions of the body are perceived as coming |
| Tx:31.70 | for the good is never what the body seems to be. The actions of the | body are perceived as coming from the “baser” part of you and thus of |
| Tx:31.70 | you and thus of him as well. By focusing upon the good in him, the | body grows decreasingly persistent in your sight and will at length |
| Tx:31.76 | by love. Yet while you hold this sword, you must perceive the | body as yourself, for you are bound to separation from the sight of |
| Tx:31.83 | wherever it occurs. It would persuade the holy Son of God he is a | body, born in what must die, unable to escape its frailty and bound |

| W1:72.3 | Although the attempt to keep the limitations which a | body would impose is obvious here, it is perhaps not so apparent why |
| W1:72.3 | hold grievances for. Are they not always associated with something a | body does? A person says something we do not like; he does something |
| W1:72.4 | On the contrary, we are exclusively concerned with what he does in a | body. We are doing more than failing to help in freeing him from its |
| W1:72.4 | them as one. Herein is God attacked, for if His Son is only a | body, so must He be as well. A creator wholly unlike his creation is |
| W1:72.5 | If God is a | body, what must His plan for salvation be? What could it be but |
| W1:72.6 | reality makes this view of God quite convincing. In fact, if the | body were real, it would be difficult indeed to escape this |
| W1:72.6 | this conclusion. And every grievance that you hold insists that the | body is real. It overlooks entirely what your brother is. It |

| W1:76.5 | madness. The body is endangered by the mind that hurts itself. The | body suffers that the mind will fail to see it is the victim of |

| W1:91.7 | in light. The body's eyes do not perceive the light. But I am not a | body. What am I? |
| W1:91.8 | what you really are must be revealed to you. The belief you are a | body calls for correction, being a mistake. The truth of what you are |
| W1:91.9 | If you are not a | body, what are you? You need to be aware of what the Holy Spirit uses |
| W1:91.9 | to be aware of what the Holy Spirit uses to replace the image of a | body in your mind. You need to feel something to put your faith in, |
| W1:91.9 | need to feel something to put your faith in, as you lift it from the | body. You need a real experience of something else, something more |
| W1:91.10 | If you are not a | body, what are you? Ask this in honesty, and then devote several |
| W1:91.12 | all sense of weakness is associated with the belief that you are a | body, a belief that is mistaken and deserves no faith. Try to remove |
| W1:92.1 | That is because your idea of what seeing means is tied up with the | body and its eyes and brain. This is why you believe that you can |
| W1:92.2 | the many magical beliefs that come from the conviction you are a | body and the body's eyes can see. You also believe the body's brain |
| W1:96.1 | yourself as two—as both good and evil, loving and hating, mind and | body. This sense of being split into opposites induces feelings of |
| W1:96.4 | A mind and | body cannot both exist. Make no attempt to reconcile the two, for one |
| W1:96.4 | in which it could be really part of you. If you are Spirit, then the | body must be meaningless to your reality. |
| W1:96.5 | also see itself divorced from Spirit and perceive itself within a | body it confuses with itself. Without its function then, it has no |
| W1:114.2 | [97] I am Spirit. I am the Son of God. No | body can contain my spirit nor impose on me a limitation God created |
| W1:128.4 | Let nothing which relates to | body thoughts delay your progress to salvation, nor permit temptation |
| W1:135.5 | unable to protect itself, and needing your defense. What but the | body has such frailty that constant care and watchful, deep concern |
| W1:135.5 | deep concern are needful to protect its little life? What but the | body falters and must fail to serve the Son of God as worthy host? |
| W1:135.6 | Yet it is not the | body that can fear, nor be a thing to fear. It has no needs but those |
| W1:135.7 | be at peace with such a concept of your home? Yet what endowed the | body with the right to serve you thus except your own belief? It is |
| W1:135.7 | you thus except your own belief? It is your mind which gave the | body all the functions that you see in it and set its value far |
| W1:135.8 | The | body is in need of no defense. This cannot be too often emphasized. |
| W1:135.9 | The “self” that needs protection is not real. The | body, valueless and hardly worth the least defense, need merely be |
| W1:135.10 | Defend the | body, and you have attacked your mind. For you have seen in it the |
| W1:135.10 | the weaknesses, the limits, and the lacks from which you think the | body must be saved. You will not see the mind as separate from bodily |
| W1:135.10 | as separate from bodily conditions. And you will impose upon the | body all the pain that comes from the conception of the mind as |
| W1:135.11 | These are the thoughts in need of healing, and the | body will respond with health when they have been corrected and |
| W1:135.13 | the problem that the plan is made to solve. It must misuse the | body in its plans until it recognizes this is so. But when it has |
| W1:135.13 | when it has accepted this as true, then is it healed and lets the | body go. |
| W1:135.14 | Enslavement of the | body to the plans the unhealed mind sets up to save itself must make |
| W1:135.14 | to the plans the unhealed mind sets up to save itself must make the | body sick. It is not free to be a means of helping in a plan which |
| W1:136.9 | can succeed in shielding you from truth? Because it proves the | body is not separate from you, and so you must be separate from the |
| W1:136.9 | so you must be separate from the truth. You suffer pain because the | body does, and in this pain are you made one with it. Thus is your |
| W1:136.10 | Thus is the | body stronger than the truth, which asks you live but cannot overcome |
| W1:136.10 | asks you live but cannot overcome your choice to die. And so the | body is more powerful than everlasting life, Heaven more frail than |
| W1:136.18 | be healed of all the sickly wishes that it tried to authorize the | body to obey. |
| W1:136.19 | Now is the | body healed because the source of sickness has been opened to relief. |
| W1:136.19 | to relief. And you will recognize you practiced well by this—the | body should not feel at all. If you have been successful, there will |
| W1:136.19 | of pain or pleasure. No response at all is in the mind to what the | body does. Its usefulness remains and nothing more. |
| W1:136.20 | do not realize that this removes the limits you had placed upon the | body by the purposes you gave to it. As these are laid aside, the |
| W1:136.20 | purposes you gave to it. As these are laid aside, the strength the | body has will always be enough to serve all truly useful purposes. |
| W1:136.21 | misplaced yourself, and made a bodily identity which will attack the | body, for the mind is sick. Give instant remedy should this occur by |
| W1:136.22 | I have forgotten what I really am for I mistook my | body for myself. Sickness is a defense against the truth, but I am |
| W1:136.22 | for myself. Sickness is a defense against the truth, but I am not a | body. And my mind cannot attack. So I cannot be sick. |
| W1:137.2 | all the rest to suffer what the others do not feel. It gives the | body final power to make the separation real and keep the mind in |
| W1:137.3 | unity that gives it life. But healing is accomplished as he sees the | body has no power to attack the universal oneness of God's Son. |
| W1:137.6 | more powerful than Christ to those who dream the world is real. The | body seems to be more solid and more stable than the mind. And love |
| W1:137.8 | hand is weakness overcome. And minds which were walled off within a | body free to join with other minds, to be forever strong. |
| W1:140.1 | What the world perceives as therapeutic is but what will make the | body “better.” When it tries to heal the mind, it sees no separation |
| W1:140.1 | When it tries to heal the mind, it sees no separation from the | body, where it thinks the mind exists. Its forms of healing thus must |
| W1:151.9 | and the Mind Whose thought created your reality. What can the | body mean to Him Who knows the glory of the Father and the Son? What |
| W1:151.12 | your life is not a part of anything you see. It stands beyond the | body and the world, past every witness for unholiness, within the |
| W1:152.5 | includes all shifts in feeling, alterations in conditions of the | body and the mind, in all awareness, and in all response. This is the |
| W1:152.6 | afraid, the suffering and lonely, and the mind that lives within a | body that must die? You but accuse Him of insanity, to think He made |
| W1:157.6 | Your | body will be sanctified today, its only purpose being now to bring |
| W1:158.7 | Christ's vision has one law. It does not look upon a | body and mistake it for the Son whom God created. It beholds a light |
| W1:158.7 | it for the Son whom God created. It beholds a light beyond the | body, an idea beyond what can be touched, a purity undimmed by |
| W1:158.8 | this has been perceived. And this you give today—see no one as a | body. Greet him as the Son of God he is, acknowledging that he is one |
| W1:161.5 | It seems to be the | body that we feel limits our freedom, makes us suffer, and at last |
| W1:161.6 | fear's symbols. You have many times been urged to look beyond the | body, for its sight presents the symbol of love's “enemy” Christ's |
| W1:161.6 | the symbol of love's “enemy” Christ's vision does not see. The | body is the target for attack, for no one thinks he hates a mind. Yet |
| W1:161.6 | for no one thinks he hates a mind. Yet what but mind directs the | body to attack? What else could be the seat of fear except what |
| W1:161.8 | Who sees a brother as a | body sees him as fear's symbol. And he will attack because what he |
| W1:162.3 | His dreams are happy and his rest secure, his safety certain and his | body healed because he sleeps and wakens with the truth before him |
| W1:163.4 | and laid to rest beneath the headstone death has placed upon the | body of the holy Son of God. |
| W1:167.3 | You think that death is of the | body. Yet it is but an idea, irrelevant to what is seen as physical. |
| W1:167.6 | is all. It cannot change what is its waking state. It cannot make a | body nor abide within a body. What is alien to the mind does not |
| W1:167.6 | what is its waking state. It cannot make a body nor abide within a | body. What is alien to the mind does not exist because it has no |
| W1:182.4 | your childhood home that you would find again. The childhood of your | body and its place of shelter are a memory now so distorted that you |
| W1:184.8 | is beyond your naming. When you call upon a brother, it is to his | body that you make appeal. His true Identity is hidden from you by |
| W1:184.8 | Identity is hidden from you by what you believe he really is. His | body makes response to what you call him, for his mind consents to |
| W1:190.3 | that God is dead, has shown that death is victor over life. The | body is the Son of God, corruptible in death, as mortal as the Father |
| W1:192.5 | Forgiveness lets the | body be perceived as what it is—a simple teaching aid to be laid by |
| W1:192.5 | but hardly changing him who learns at all. The mind without the | body cannot make mistakes. It cannot think that it will die nor be |
| W1:192.6 | Only forgiveness can relieve the mind of thinking that the | body is its home. Only forgiveness can restore the peace that God |
| W1:196.1 | full awareness, you will not attempt to harm yourself nor make your | body slave to vengeance. You will not attack yourself, and you will |
| W1:196.3 | truth will not deceive you longer. You will not believe you are a | body to be crucified. And you will see within today's idea the light |
| W1:199.1 | Freedom must be impossible as long as you perceive a | body as yourself. The body is a limit. Who would seek for freedom in |
| W1:199.1 | must be impossible as long as you perceive a body as yourself. The | body is a limit. Who would seek for freedom in a body looks for it |
| W1:199.1 | as yourself. The body is a limit. Who would seek for freedom in a | body looks for it where it cannot be found. The mind can be made free |
| W1:199.1 | The mind can be made free when it no longer sees itself as in a | body, firmly tied to it and sheltered by its presence. If this were |
| W1:199.3 | not concerned that to the ego it is quite insane. The ego holds the | body dear because it dwells in it and lives united with the home that |
| W1:199.4 | be seen as what it is. Declare your innocence, and you are free. The | body disappears because you have no need of it except the need the |
| W1:199.4 | no need of it except the need the Holy Spirit sees. For this, the | body will appear as useful form for what the mind must do. It thus |
| W1:199.6 | response to mind with but the thought of freedom as its goal, the | body serves, and serves its purpose well. Without the power to |
| W1:199.7 | as your gift to those who still believe they are enslaved within a | body. Be you free, so that the Holy Spirit can make use of your |
| W1:199.9 | I am not a | body. I am free. I hear the Voice that God has given me, and it is |

| W1:204.1 | illusions, free in God, forever and forever one with Him. I am not a | body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:205.1 | and my life while I abide where I am not at home. I am not a | body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:206.1 | And I would give His gifts where He intended them to be. I am not a | body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:207.1 | sorrow melts away as I accept His boundless Love for me. I am not a | body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:208.1 | It is within my heart, which witnesses to God Himself. I am not a | body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |

| Tx:7.77 | worth of every Son of God, teaching it with infinite patience | born of the [love of Him for whom] He speaks. Every attack is a call |
| Tx:7.96 | so intense that it creates in perfect joy, and only the whole can be | born of its wholeness. |
| Tx:8.50 | of the value He puts upon you. My devotion to you is of Him, being | born of my knowledge of myself and Him. We cannot be separated. Whom |
| Tx:9.37 | His. In your open mind are your creations, in perfect communication | born of perfect understanding. Could you but accept one of them, you |
| Tx:10.63 | crucify themselves, believing that the power of the Son of God is | born of sacrifice and pain. The God of the resurrection demands |
| Tx:11.86 | the laws which seem to govern it are the laws of death. Children are | born into it through pain and in pain. Their growth is attended by |
| Tx:12.47 | in everyone you meet because you see Him through Himself. To be | born again is to let the past go and look without condemnation upon |
| Tx:12.48 | the miracle, which could intervene between them, to free you to be | born again. |
| Tx:12.49 | you to see your brother without his past and so perceive him as | born again. His errors are all past, and by perceiving him without |
| Tx:13.24 | relationship to hold you to the past, but with each one each day be | born again. A minute, even less, will be enough to free you from the |
| Tx:13.66 | be happy. Say therefore to yourself gently, but with the conviction | born of the love of God and of His Son, |
| Tx:15.10 | without condemnation. From this holy instant wherein holiness was | born again, you will go forth in time without fear and with no sense |
| Tx:15.30 | than glory. Learn that you must be worthy of the Prince of Peace, | born in you in honor of Him Whose host you are. You know not what |
| Tx:15.73 | and sacrifice as the price of union. In their angry alliances, | born of the fear of loneliness and yet dedicated to the continuance |
| Tx:15.94 | all of our brothers. The gift of union is the only gift that I was | born to give. Give it to me, that you may have it. The time of Christ |
| Tx:15.107 | there is communication, there is peace. The Prince of Peace was | born to reestablish the condition of love by teaching that |
| Tx:15.108 | The lesson I was | born to teach and still would teach to all my brothers is that |
| Tx:15.110 | This is the weekend in which a new year will be | born from the time of Christ. I have perfect faith in you to do all |
| Tx:15.112 | we have been long delayed. Accept the holy instant as this year is | born and take your place, so long left unfulfilled, in the Great |
| Tx:16.46 | It is in the special relationship, | born of the hidden wish for special love from God, that the ego's |
| Tx:17.9 | this final blessing of God's Son upon himself, the real perception, | born of the new perspective he has learned, has served its purpose. |
| Tx:19.87 | you will perform, held out to you. The miracle of life is ageless, | born in time but nourished in eternity. Behold this infant to whom |

| Tx:20.52 | were made meaningless. In that unholy instant, time was | born and bodies made to house the mad idea and give it the illusion |
| Tx:21.36 | view be given them. The miracles which follow this decision are also | born of faith. For all who choose to look away from sin are given |
| Tx:21.44 | liberation still is only partial—still limited and incomplete, yet | born within you. Not wholly mad, you have been willing to look on |
| Tx:22.4 | is the golden circle where you recognize the Son of God. For what is | born into a holy relationship can never end. |
| Tx:22.37 | A holy relationship, however newly | born, must value holiness above all else. Unholy values will produce |
| Tx:23.14 | love. Conflict is fearful, for it is the birth of fear. Yet what is | born of nothing cannot win reality through battle. Why would you fill |
| Tx:23.18 | on itself, extends itself. War is the condition in which fear is | born and grows and seeks to dominate. Peace is the state where love |

| Tx:27.77 | dream, which tells the story of how it was made by other bodies, | born into the world outside the body, lives a little while and dies, |
| Tx:28.11 | radiant extension back into the mind Which caused all minds to be. | Born out of sharing, there can be no pause in time to cause the |

| Tx:30.33 | one Thought that God has ever had but waited for your blessing to be | born. God is no enemy to you. He asks no more than that He hear you |
| Tx:30.35 | the one you chose to hate instead of love. For thus was hatred | born into the world, and thus the rule of fear established there. Now |
| Tx:30.35 | thing but gives you thanks, for it is by your will that it was | born. No light of Heaven shines except for you, for it was set in |
| Tx:30.43 | His Thoughts were absent or could suffer change. Thoughts are not | born and cannot die. They share the attributes of their creator, nor |
| Tx:30.44 | aware of them and sometimes not. An unremembered thought is | born again to you when it returns to your awareness. Yet it did not |

| Tx:31.49 | the world is real. For all of them are made within the world, | born in its shadow, growing in its ways, and finally “maturing” in |

| Tx:31.74 | the terrified imaginings that come from guilty thoughts and concepts | born of fear. And what you see is hell, for fear is hell. All that is |
| Tx:31.77 | since, and those you will yet meet, the unremembered and the not yet | born. For God has given you His Son to save from every concept that |
| Tx:31.83 | it occurs. It would persuade the holy Son of God he is a body, | born in what must die, unable to escape its frailty and bound by what |
| W1:75.2 | begins for you and everyone. It is a new era in which a new world is | born. The old one has left no trace upon it in its passing. Today we |
| W1:101.4 | meted out in cruel form to match the vicious wishes in which sin is | born. If sin is real, salvation has become your bitter enemy, the |
| W1:107.9 | Today we practice on the happy note of certainty that has been | born of truth. The shaky and unsteady footsteps of illusion is not |

| W1:109.1 | We ask for peace and stillness in the midst of all the turmoil | born of clashing dreams. We ask for safety and for happiness, |
| W1:109.2 | linger for a while. Here is the thought in which the Son of God is | born again, to recognize himself. |
| W1:109.7 | begins to sing, a stream long dry begins to flow again. The world is | born again each time you rest, and hourly remember that you came to |
| W1:109.11 | every Thought of God, and to the Mind in Which these Thoughts were | born and where they rest. And we remind them of their resting place |
| W1:122.8 | your heart with deep tranquility as ancient truths, forever newly | born, arise in your awareness. What you will remember then can never |

| W1:188.7 | on them, but they must remain with you as well, for they were | born within your mind as yours was born in God's. They lead you back |

| W1:191.11 | yourself as weak and frail, with futile hopes and devastated dreams, | born but to die, to weep, and suffer pain, hear this: all power is |
| W1:192.7 | is so limited that what we think we understand is but confusion | born of error. We are lost in mists of shifting dreams and fearful |
| W1:192.8 | Who can be | born again in Christ but him who has forgiven everyone he sees or |

| W2:WS.1 | that time will have an end, and all the thoughts that have been | born in time will end as well. God's Word is given every mind which |
| W2:WS.4 | and birds have come to live within their branches. Earth is being | born again in new perception. Night has gone, and we have come |
| W2:WIW.1 | The world is false perception. It is | born of error, and it has not left its source. It will remain no |
| W2:WIW.2 | not and where His Son could be apart from Him. Here was perception | born, for knowledge could not cause such insane thoughts. But eyes |
| W2:WIW.3 | The mechanisms of illusion have been | born instead. And now they go to find what has been given them to |
| W2:WIB.3 | but can quite suddenly revert to fear, where every dream is | born. For only love creates in truth, and truth can never fear. Made |
| W2:276.1 | the Word His Son did not create with Him because in this His Son was | born. Let us accept His Fatherhood, and all is given us. Deny we were |
| W2:303.1 | holy thoughts surround me and be still with me while Heaven's Son is | born. Let earthly sounds be quiet and the sights to which I am |
| W2:303.1 | His Father's Love. Let Him no longer be a stranger here, for He is | born again in me today. |
| W2:306.1 | be restored to love and holiness and peace. Today I am redeemed and | born anew into a world of mercy and of care; of loving kindness and |
| W2:WILJ.2 | in Christ's sight, it merely slips away to nothingness. There it was | born, and there it ends as well. And all the figures in the dream in |
| W2:WIE.1 | The ego is idolatry—the sign of limited and separated self, | born in a body, doomed to suffer and to end its life in death. It is |
| W2:340.1 | free forever from all suffering. Thanks for today, my Father. I was | born into this world but to achieve this day and what it holds in joy |

| M:14.2 | does have a purpose. It becomes the home in which forgiveness is | born and where it grows and becomes stronger and more all embracing. |
| M:14.2 | Here is it nourished, for here it is needed. A gentle Savior, | born where sin was made and guilt seemed real. Here is His home, for |
| M:27.1 | all illusions stem. Is it not madness to think of life as being | born, aging, losing vitality, and dying in the end? We have asked |
| M:27.1 | fixed, unchangeable belief of the world that all things in it are | born only to die. This is regarded as “the way of nature,” not to be |
| M:27.6 | final goal, the end of all illusions. And in death are all illusions | born. What can be born of death and still have life? But what is born |
| M:27.6 | of all illusions. And in death are all illusions born. What can be | born of death and still have life? But what is born of God and still |

| Tx:16.42 | Him Who gave eternity to you in your creation. On this side of the | bridge to timelessness you understand nothing. But as you step |
| Tx:16.58 | that ever confronted you and also the only one. You will cross the | bridge into reality simply because you will recognize that God is on |
| Tx:16.62 | On this side of the | bridge, you see the world of separate bodies seeking to join each |
| Tx:16.63 | Across the | bridge, it is so different! For a time the body is still seen but not |

| Tx:16.64 | The | bridge itself is nothing more than a transition in your perspective |

| Tx:28.15 | wills that he be lifted up and gently carried over. He has built the | bridge, and it is He Who will transport His Son across it. Have no |

| Tx:4.92 | value it. You can only show him how miserable he is without it and | bring it near very slowly, so he can learn how his misery lessens as |
| Tx:5.9 | invitation to the Holy Spirit. I told you that I could reach up and | bring the Holy Spirit down to you, but I can bring Him to you only at |
| Tx:5.9 | I could reach up and bring the Holy Spirit down to you, but I can | bring Him to you only at your own invitation. The Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:5.29 | this goal we increase its power to attract the whole Sonship and to | bring it back into the Oneness in which it was created. Remember that |
| Tx:6.20 | guilty, they never could have quoted me as saying, “I come not to | bring peace but a sword.” This is clearly the exact opposite of |
| Tx:6.54 | wrong. This would demonstrate that the perfect were inadequate to | bring themselves to the awareness of their perfection and thus side |
| Tx:7.95 | because the Holy Spirit, Who is in your mind, knows of them and can | bring them into your awareness whenever you will let Him. They are |
| Tx:8.15 | its own acknowledgment of what it is. When you acknowledge this, you | bring the acknowledgment automatically to everyone, because you have |
| Tx:8.39 | I know He gave me] this confidence for both of us and all of us. I | bring God's peace back to all His Children, because I received it of |
| Tx:8.57 | first. Do not see him this way for your own salvation, which must | bring him his. Do not allow him to belittle himself in your mind, but |
| Tx:8.81 | do so little, because it is so powerful that your little part will | bring the whole to you. Accept then your little part, and let the |
| Tx:9.28 | heal; he lets healing be. He can point to darkness, but he cannot | bring light of himself, for light is not of him. Yet, being for him, |
| Tx:9.55 | obscure nor hidden, but its obviousness to you lies in the joy you | bring to its witnesses, who show it to you. They attest to your |
| Tx:9.81 | I do not | bring God's message with deception, and you will learn this as you |
| Tx:9.89 | because what He did not intend does not happen. Your gods do not | bring chaos; you are endowing them with chaos and accepting it of |
| Tx:9.94 | of joy to them, or you cannot see the spark in them that could | bring joy to you. It is the denial of the spark that brings |
| Tx:9.101 | pain, and wholly without suffering of any kind. If you deny Him, you | bring sin, pain, and suffering into your own mind because of the |
| Tx:10.3 | way. Yet even the little spark in your mind is enough to lighten it. | Bring this light fearlessly with you and hold it up to the foundation |
| Tx:10.3 | honesty. Open the dark cornerstone of terror on which it rests and | bring it out into the light. There you will see that it rests on |
| Tx:10.5 | You have learned your need of healing. Would you | bring anything else to the Sonship, recognizing your need of healing |
| Tx:10.10 | To give without limit is God's Will for you because only this can | bring you the joy which is His and which He wills to share with you. |
| Tx:10.33 | do so if you realized that you can only darken your own mind. As you | bring him back, so will your mind return. That is the law of God for |
| Tx:10.68 | God's Son is saved. | Bring only this awareness to the Sonship, and you will have a part in |
| Tx:11.35 | the world. Yet Christ has placed the Atonement on the altar for you. | Bring your perceptions of the world to this altar, for it is the |
| Tx:11.71 | creations. Coming only from God, its power and grandeur could only | bring you peace if you really looked upon it. If you are afraid, it |
| Tx:12.9 | this is not so. Your “guilty secret” is nothing, and if you will but | bring it to the light, the light will dispel it. And then no dark |
| Tx:12.17 | and His remedy is quick. Do not hide suffering from His sight, but | bring it gladly to Him. Lay before His eternal sanity all your hurt, |
| Tx:12.28 | escape. For they are not real and have no hold over you unless you | bring them with you. They carry the spots of pain in your minds, |
| Tx:12.46 | you are afraid of light. And only if you are would you choose to | bring this darkness with you, and by holding it in your minds, see it |
| Tx:12.49 | holds. Judgment and condemnation are behind you, and unless you | bring them with you, you will see that you are free of them. |
| Tx:13.12 | his guilt is yours, and by obeying the ego's harsh commandments, you | bring its condemnation of yourself, and you will not escape the |
| Tx:13.59 | seem to bind them unto despair they do not see as nothing until you | bring the light to them. And then they see the chains have |
| Tx:13.67 | accept my guiltlessness by making it manifest and sharing it. Let me | bring peace to God's Son from his Father. |
| Tx:13.74 | want is good. Yet will was given them because it is holy and will | bring to them all that they need, coming as naturally as peace that |
| Tx:13.81 | you take unto yourself the sole responsibility for deciding what can | bring only good to everyone? Would you know this? |
| Tx:13.92 | consider whether this is not more restful than sleep. For you can | bring your guilt into sleeping but not into this. |
| Tx:14.8 | every thought that would steal it away and keep it from his sight. | Bring innocence to light in answer to the call of the Atonement. |
| Tx:14.11 | confidence in your safe inclusion in what is for all in everyone you | bring within its safety and its perfect peace. |
| Tx:14.15 | outside, judging him fit for crucifixion or for redemption. If you | bring him into the circle of purity, you will rest there with him. If |
| Tx:14.15 | Refuse to accept anyone as without the blessing of Atonement, and | bring him into it by blessing him. Holiness must be shared, for |
| Tx:14.23 | from His sight, for He will not attack your sentinels. But | bring them to Him, and let His gentleness teach you that in the light |
| Tx:14.28 | sight, for each in a separate place can be endowed with firm belief. | Bring them together, and the fact of their complete incompatibility |
| Tx:14.30 | The Holy Spirit asks of you but this— | bring to Him every secret you have locked away from Him. Open every |
| Tx:14.30 | see. The vision of Christ is not for Him alone but for Him with you. | Bring, therefore, all your dark and secret thoughts to Him and look |
| Tx:14.31 | with you. The single vision which the Holy Spirit offers you will | bring this oneness to your mind with clarity and brightness so |
| Tx:14.39 | Bringing the ego to God is but to | bring error to truth, where it stands corrected because it is the |
| Tx:14.44 | the power of healing that the reflection of God, shining in you, can | bring to all the world, you could not wait to make the mirror of your |
| Tx:14.44 | upon it is not obscure, for everyone perceives it as the same. All | bring their different problems to its healing light, but all their |
| Tx:14.46 | which you accept into the mirror of your minds in time but | bring eternity nearer or farther. But eternity itself is beyond all |
| Tx:14.46 | to lay all guilt aside. Reflect the peace of Heaven here and | bring this world to Heaven. For the reflection of truth draws |
| Tx:14.50 | which you establish. Yet the very fact that you can do this and | bring any order into chaos shows you that you are not an ego and that |
| Tx:14.55 | with you in seeking it. If you undertake the search together, you | bring with you a light so powerful that what you see is given |
| Tx:14.62 | open to receive, not closed to take. Every dark lesson that you | bring to Him Who teaches light He will accept from you because you do |
| Tx:14.67 | himself. The miracle brings the effects which only guiltlessness can | bring and thus establishes the fact that guiltlessness must be. |
| Tx:15.2 | not waste Him as it does you.] And all the waste that time seems to | bring with it is due but to your identification with the ego, which |
| Tx:15.7 | way in which the ego allows the fear of hell to be experienced is to | bring hell here, but always as a foretaste of the future. For no one |
| Tx:15.22 | you strive for anything in this world with the belief that it will | bring you peace, you are belittling yourself and blinding yourself to |
| Tx:15.27 | with Him. Every decision you make is for Heaven or for hell and will | bring you awareness of what you decided for. The Holy Spirit can hold |
| Tx:15.35 | stands in shimmering readiness for your acceptance. Yet you cannot | bring it into glad awareness while you do not want it, for it holds |
| Tx:15.36 | by so much is it far from you. By so much as you want it will you | bring it nearer. Think not that you can find salvation in your own |
| Tx:15.36 | for God's. His will content you, and there is nothing else that can | bring you peace. For peace is of God and of no one beside Him. |
| Tx:15.44 | keep unto yourself. Let the Holy Spirit's purity shine them away and | bring all your awareness to the readiness for purity He offers you. |
| Tx:15.46 | We said before that to limit love to part of the Sonship is to | bring guilt into your relationships and thus make them unreal. If you |
| Tx:15.52 | and although this is not so in Heaven, the Holy Spirit knows how to | bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the holy instant no one is |
| Tx:15.54 | told to offer miracles as Christ directs and let the Holy Spirit | bring to you those who are seeking you. Yet in the holy instant, you |
| Tx:15.67 | at what it is and have judged it completely in the dark. As we | bring it to light, your only question will be why it was you ever |
| Tx:16.6 | but this. This is not knowledge, and the form of empathy that would | bring this about is so distorted that it would imprison what it would |
| Tx:16.6 | the Teacher. Do not confuse your role with His, for this will never | bring peace to anyone. Offer your empathy to Him, for it is His |
| Tx:16.16 | upon is with you. Bid Him welcome and honor His witnesses, who | bring you the glad tidings He has come. It is true, just as you fear, |
| Tx:16.21 | with what you taught before He came. And the results have been to | bring peace where there was pain, and suffering has disappeared, to |
| Tx:16.30 | merely drive it underground and out of sight. It is essential to | bring it into sight and to make no attempt to hide it. For it is the |
| Tx:16.36 | from illusion: The special love relationship is an attempt [to | bring love into separation. And, as such, it is nothing more than an |
| Tx:16.36 | separation. And, as such, it is nothing more than an attempt] to | bring love into fear and make it real in fear. In fundamental |
| Tx:16.55 | that you have set up in which the dance of death delights you can | bring death to the eternal. Nor can your chosen substitute for the |
| Tx:16.63 | realize that the only value which the body has is to enable you to | bring your brothers to the bridge with you and to be released |
| Tx:16.76 | For a time you may attempt to | bring illusions into the holy instant to hinder your full awareness |
| Tx:16.76 | Holy Spirit will prevail because you joined Him. The illusions you | bring with you will weaken the experience of Him for a while and will |
| Tx:16.78 | them illusions. In the holy instant, this is done for you in time to | bring to you the true condition of Heaven. |
| Tx:17.5 | Think you that you can | bring truth to fantasy and learn what truth means from the |
| Tx:17.5 | frame of reference for its meaning must be itself. When you try to | bring truth to illusions, you are trying to make illusions real and |
| Tx:17.7 | ever brought you even a little part of the happiness this sight will | bring you. For you will see the Son of God. You will behold the |
| Tx:17.14 | God for what he did not do. The shadow figures are the witnesses you | bring with you to demonstrate he did what he did not. Because you |
| Tx:17.15 | They represent the evil that you think was done to you. You | bring them with you only that you may return evil for evil, hoping |
| Tx:17.19 | with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” How can the Holy Spirit | bring His interpretation of the body as a means of communication into |
| Tx:17.26 | fantasies. Let my relationship to you be real to you, and let me | bring reality to your perception of your brothers. They were not |
| Tx:17.26 | are cherished have excluded me. Let me enter in the Name of God and | bring you peace that you may offer peace to me. |
| Tx:17.33 | defend is placed in them for safekeeping, and as they operate, they | bring it to you. Every defense operates by giving gifts, and the gift |
| Tx:17.49 | will go, and you will see the justification for your faith emerge to | bring you shining conviction. Abandon Him not now, nor each other. |
| Tx:17.59 | you have no idea what should happen. No goal was set with which to | bring the means in line. And now the only judgment left to make is |
| Tx:17.63 | you lose the understanding of the situation the goal of truth would | bring. For fantasy solutions bring but the illusion of experience, |
| Tx:17.63 | the situation the goal of truth would bring. For fantasy solutions | bring but the illusion of experience, and the illusion of peace is |
| Tx:17.75 | do not interrupt its coming. Let it encompass every situation and | bring you peace. Not even faith is asked of you, for truth asks |
| Tx:18.9 | to which the Holy Spirit has committed your relationship. Let Him | bring it here, where you would have it be. Give Him but a little |
| Tx:18.24 | dream has led to other dreams, and every fantasy which seemed to | bring a light into the darkness but made the darkness deeper. Your |
| Tx:18.29 | to the Son of God, who hid in darkness. You have been willing to | bring the darkness to light, and this willingness has given strength |
| Tx:18.38 | made guilt and that your plan for the escape from guilt has been to | bring Atonement to it and make salvation fearful. And it is only fear |
| Tx:18.44 | accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose as your own, and you would merely | bring unholy means to its accomplishment. The little faith it needed |
| Tx:18.78 | your little kingdom. And realize the life and joy which love would | bring to it from where it comes and where it would return with you. |
| Tx:18.79 | love for them where once a desert was. And everyone you welcome will | bring love with him from Heaven for you. They enter one by one into |
| Tx:18.80 | Go out and find them, for they | bring your Self with them. And lead them gently to your quiet garden |
| Tx:18.84 | You have been told to | bring the darkness to the light and guilt to holiness. And you have |
| Tx:18.86 | pronouncing it as true. For you sent forth these messengers to | bring this back to you. |
| Tx:18.87 | unaware of it; its tongue cannot relay its messages. Yet God can | bring you there if you are willing to follow the Holy Spirit through |
| Tx:18.88 | enough to hold its most external manifestations in darkness and to | bring despair and loneliness to it and keep it joyless. Yet its |
| Tx:18.91 | however long you play it, and regardless of how much imagination you | bring to it, you do not confuse it with the world below, nor seek to |
| Tx:19.30 | of changed perception which its teacher, who is one with it, would | bring. |
| Tx:19.37 | of the Holy Spirit's purpose from your relationship to others to | bring them gently in [has already begun. This is the way in which He |
| Tx:19.37 | them gently in [has already begun. This is the way in which He will | bring means and goal in line. The peace He laid deep within both of |
| Tx:19.40 | it must begin with you and from you reach to everyone who calls and | bring him rest by joining you. |
| Tx:19.41 | go for yourselves alone. Christ asks it of you for Himself. He would | bring peace to everyone, and how can He do this except through you? |
| Tx:19.52 | the world to feast upon it and to prey upon reality. For they will | bring you word of bones and skin and flesh. They have been taught to |
| Tx:19.57 | that it can give you pleasure, you will also believe that it can | bring you pain. |
| Tx:19.62 | the body's pleasure; it has no hope of pleasure. But neither can it | bring you fear of pain. Pain is the only “sacrifice” the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:19.67 | joined already, will be the focus of the new perception that will | bring light to all the world, contained in you. |
| Tx:19.69 | what already is at peace in you, immortal as itself. The body can | bring you neither peace nor turmoil; neither pain nor joy. It is a |
| Tx:20.58 | how these must be brought in line before your holy relationship can | bring you only joy. But we have also said the means to meet the Holy |
| Tx:21.5 | question is whether the means by which this course is learned will | bring to you the joy it promises. If you believed it would, the |
| Tx:21.65 | which is one with you, in just an instant. And any instant serves to | bring complete correction of his errors and make him whole. The |
| Tx:22.16 | and different from each other. In truth they are the same. Both | bring the same amount of misery, though each one seems to be the way |
| Tx:22.41 | How beautiful the sight you saw beyond the veil which you will | bring to light the tired eyes of those as weary now as once you were. |
| Tx:22.55 | are you who let this gift be given! Each part of Heaven that you | bring is given you. And every empty place in Heaven that you fill |
| Tx:22.55 | empty place in Heaven that you fill again with the Eternal Light you | bring shines now on you. The means of sinlessness can know no fear |
| Tx:22.56 | Children of peace, the light has come to you. The light you | bring you do not recognize, and yet you will remember. Who can deny |
| Tx:22.56 | You who are now His means must love all that He loves. And what you | bring is your remembrance of everything that is eternal. No trace of |
| Tx:23.38 | in their witnessing or their results. Certain it is illusions will | bring fear because of the beliefs that they imply, not for their |
| Tx:24.13 | from limits? You have a function in salvation. Its pursuit will | bring you joy. But the pursuit of specialness must bring you pain. |
| Tx:24.13 | Its pursuit will bring you joy. But the pursuit of specialness must | bring you pain. Here is a goal that would defeat salvation and thus |
| Tx:24.25 | and the awareness that your plan has failed and will forever fail to | bring you peace and joy of any kind? Through this despair you travel |
| Tx:25.14 | what has always failed on grounds that it will suddenly succeed and | bring what it has never brought before? |
| Tx:25.28 | And he will reinterpret all temptation as just another chance to | bring him joy. How can a misperception be a sin? Let all your |
| Tx:25.32 | their purpose to behold it and rejoice. Everyone seeks for what will | bring him joy as he defines it. It is not the aim as such that |
| Tx:25.32 | is changed. And then the means are chosen once again, as what will | bring rejoicing is defined another way and sought for differently. |
| Tx:25.33 | see it to rejoice.” And while you think that suffering and sin will | bring you joy, so long will they be there for you to see. Nothing is |
| Tx:25.33 | joy. Even in Heaven does this law obtain. The Son of God creates to | bring him joy, sharing his Father's purpose in his own creation that |
| Tx:25.34 | rest and comfort in another world where peace abides. This world you | bring with you to all the weary eyes and tired hearts that look on |
| Tx:25.34 | wish to hurt and kill and die will disappear before the sun you | bring. |
| Tx:25.36 | Nothing beyond nor nearer. Nothing else. In any form. This can you | bring to all the world and all the thoughts that entered it and were |
| Tx:25.36 | your own mistakes be brought to truth than by your willingness to | bring the light of Heaven with you as you walk beyond the world of |
| Tx:25.82 | vengeance. Problem solving cannot be vengeance, which at best can | bring another problem added to the first, in which the murder is not |
| Tx:26.11 | now has been corrected. One mistake is not more difficult for Him to | bring to truth than is another. For there is but one mistake—the |
| Tx:26.18 | an opposite. And how could strife enter in its simple presence and | bring complexity where oneness is? The truth makes no decisions, for |
| Tx:26.53 | is but deceived. Forgiveness is the only function here and serves to | bring the joy this world denies to every aspect of God's Son where |
| Tx:27.39 | are true? Which ones establish peace and offer joy? And which can | bring escape from all the pain of which this world is made?” Whatever |
| Tx:27.43 | no problems in a world from which the answer has been barred. But | bring the problem to the only place which holds the answer lovingly |
| Tx:27.43 | though they leave the first unanswered. In the holy instant, you can | bring the question to the answer and receive the answer that was made |
| Tx:27.46 | that war has no effects. For all the hurt that war has sought to | bring, the broken bodies, and the shattered limbs, the screaming |
| Tx:27.47 | because he was afraid of being healed? The eyes of all the dying | bring reproach, and suffering whispers, “What is there to fear?” |
| Tx:27.48 | behind on your returning to the world. And being blessed, you will | bring blessing. Life is given you to give the dying world. And |
| Tx:27.51 | for learning does not jump from situations to their opposites and | bring the same results. All healing must proceed in lawful manner in |
| Tx:27.85 | your error, who have overlooked the cause entirely? He bids you | bring each terrible effect to Him that you may look together on its |
| Tx:27.87 | of the form of suffering that brings you pain. Whatever hurt you | bring to Him He will make answer with this very simple truth. For |
| Tx:27.89 | Bring, then, all forms of suffering to Him Who knows that every one | |
| Tx:28.7 | will surprise you with their loveliness. The ancient new ideas they | bring will be the happy consequences of a cause so ancient that it |
| Tx:28.35 | that you never sinned. The miracle would leave no proof of guilt to | bring you witness to what never was. And in your storehouse it will |
| Tx:29.2 | fearful—hate is love. This is the consequence the little gap must | bring to those who cherish it and think that it is their salvation |
| Tx:29.30 | obscure to you. Do not ascribe a role to him which you imagine would | bring happiness to you. And do not try to hurt him when he fails to |
| Tx:29.44 | or some dream that there is something outside of himself that will | bring happiness and peace to him. If everything is in him, this |
| Tx:29.46 | which the body's betterment is cast as major beneficiary, you try to | bring about your death. For you believe that you can suffer lack, and |
| Tx:29.70 | dreams are kind to everyone who figures in the dream. And so they | bring the dreamer full release from dreams of fear. He does not fear |
| Tx:30.38 | are limits. They are the belief that there are forms which will | bring happiness and that, by limiting, is all attained. It is as if |
| Tx:30.53 | Dwell not on them in any form. They but obscure reality, and they | bring fear because they hide the truth. Do not attack what you have |
| Tx:30.65 | never wanted it. What happiness have you sought here that did not | bring you pain? What moment of content has not been bought at fearful |
| Tx:31.27 | What could the outcome be that you would want? And how could murder | bring you benefit? |
| Tx:31.73 | the changes that it needs to let it serve the function given you to | bring you peace that you may offer peace to have it yours. |
| Tx:31.93 | in exchange I lay before your feet the peace of God and power to | bring this peace to everyone who wanders in the world uncertain, |
| Tx:31.93 | it is but a step from there to Heaven. To your tired eyes I | bring a vision of a different world, so new and clean and fresh you |
| W1:27.1 | it. This does not matter. The purpose of today's exercises is to | bring the time when the idea will be wholly true a little nearer. |
| W1:41.7 | way will open if you believe that it is possible. This exercise can | bring very startling results even the first time it is attempted. And |
| W1:R1.5 | The purpose of your learning is to enable you to | bring the quiet with you and to heal distress and turmoil. This is |
| W1:60.2 | my innocence. It is the reflection of God's Love on earth. It will | bring me near enough to Heaven that the Love of God can reach down to |
| W1:62.1 | It is your forgiveness that will | bring the world of darkness to the light. It is your forgiveness that |
| W1:62.7 | to considering your function and the happiness and release it will | bring you. |
| W1:63.1 | How holy are you who have the power to | bring peace to every mind! How blessed are you who can learn to |
| W1:63.1 | this be done through you! What purpose could you have that would | bring you greater happiness? |
| W1:65.11 | to focus on its importance to you, the relief its acceptance will | bring you by resolving your conflicts once and for all, and the |
| W1:66.11 | under the ego's guidance. Did you find it? Were you happy? Did they | bring you peace? |
| W1:67.6 | as Love created you. Be confident that you will do much today to | bring that awareness nearer, whether you feel you have succeeded or |
| W1:71.6 | which are diametrically opposed in all ways. The result can only | bring confusion, misery, and a deep sense of failure and despair. |
| W1:75.1 | has come. You are saved, and you can save. You are at peace, and you | bring peace with you wherever you go. Darkness and turmoil and death |
| W1:91.8 | a mistake. The truth of what you are calls on the strength in you to | bring to your awareness what the mistake concealed. |
| W1:92.6 | all may see and benefit as one. Its strength is shared that it may | bring to all the miracle in which they will unite in purpose and |
| W1:93.17 | do much for the world's salvation today. You can do much today to | bring you closer to accepting the part in salvation which God has |
| W1:93.17 | which God has assigned to you. And you can do much today to | bring the conviction to your mind that the idea for the day is true |
| W1:95.16 | You are God's Son, One Self with one Creator and one goal—to | bring awareness of this oneness to all minds, that true creation may |
| W1:96.7 | can. Yet would you have God's plan for the release of His dear Son | bring pain to him and fail to set him free? |
| W1:97.1 | truth. Practice this truth today as often as you can, for it will | bring your mind from conflict to the quiet fields of peace. No chill |
| W1:97.3 | Today we try to | bring reality still closer to your mind. Each time you practice, |
| W1:97.6 | not overlook one open mind that will accept the healing gift they | bring, and He will lay them everywhere He knows they will be welcome. |
| W1:98.8 | His confidence in you will | bring the light to all the words you say, and you will go beyond |
| W1:99.4 | could hold the truth inviolate, yet recognize the need illusions | bring and offer means by which they are undone without attack and |
| W1:100.7 | You are God's messenger today. You | bring His happiness to all you look upon, His peace to everyone who |
| W1:103.3 | This basic error we will try again to | bring to truth today and teach ourselves: |
| W1:104.8 | come to seek for them where He has laid them. This reminder will we | bring to mind as often as we can: |
| W1:107.14 | And yet you will be glad to look again upon this world. For you will | bring with you the promise of the changes which the truth that goes |
| W1:108.5 | all correction or that to forgive one brother wholly is enough to | bring salvation to all minds. For these are but some special cases of |
| W1:109.2 | “I rest in God.” This thought will | bring to you the rest and quiet, peace and stillness, and the safety |
| W1:109.7 | born again each time you rest, and hourly remember that you came to | bring the peace of God into the world that it might take its rest |
| W1:110.2 | to learn escape from time and every change that time appears to | bring in passing by. |
| W1:R3.13 | Forget them not. This second chance with each of these ideas will | bring such large advances that we come from these reviews with |
| W1:121.1 | in apparent dangers which appear to threaten you at every turn and | bring uncertainty to all your hopes of ever finding quietness and |
| W1:126.1 | the world, is crucial to the thought reversal which this course will | bring about. If you believed this statement, there would be no |

| W1:156.4 | that the world is sanctified because of you. All things that live | bring gifts to you and offer them in gratitude and gladness at your |
| W1:157.6 | Your body will be sanctified today, its only purpose being now to | bring the vision of what you experience this day to light the world. |
| W1:157.7 | Heaven in its ways, a little nearer its deliverance. And you who | bring it light will come to see the light more sure, the vision more |
| W1:161.4 | do these thoughts make clear the meaning of creation? Do these words | bring perfect clarity with them to you? What can they seem to be but |
| W1:164.4 | this today you will remember. Faithfulness in practicing today will | bring rewards so great and so completely different from all things |
| W1:170.14 | our choice for all our brothers, knowing they are one with us. We | bring them Your salvation as we have received it now. And we give |

| W1:185.8 | your requests. Consider but what you believe will comfort you and | bring you happiness. But be you not dismayed by lingering illusions, |
| W1:188.1 | and stayed with you because it is your own. It is the only thing you | bring with you from Him Who is your Source. It shines in you because |
| W1:188.8 | to the light in us today. We take our wandering thoughts and gently | bring them back to where they fall in line with all the thoughts we |
| W1:189.7 | and all the ideas of which it is ashamed. Hold onto nothing. Do not | bring with you one thought the past has taught nor one belief you |
| W1:190.5 | any way. There is no cause beyond yourself that can reach down and | bring oppression. No one but yourself affects you. There is nothing |
| W1:190.7 | you will. Your idle wishes represent its pains. Your strange desires | bring it evil dreams. Your thoughts of death envelop it in fear, |
| W1:191.2 | within you and without, no breath you draw that does not seem to | bring you nearer death, no hope you hold but will dissolve in tears. |
| W1:191.12 | the world, and see the suffering there. Is not your heart willing to | bring your weary brothers rest? |
| W1:194.7 | loving hands of God? What can he suffer? What can cause him pain or | bring experience of loss to him? What can he fear? And what can he |
| W1:195.3 | Now is vengeance all there is to wish for. Now can you but try to | bring him down to lie in death with you, as useless as yourself, as |
| W1:196.7 | accomplished, you cannot perceive that it is but your thoughts that | bring you fear and your deliverance depends on you. |
| W2:237.1 | allow the light in me to shine upon the world throughout the day. I | bring the world the tidings of salvation that I hear as God my Father |

| W2:254.2 | at them, and then we let them go. We do not want what they would | bring with them. And so we do not choose to keep them. They are |
| W2:272.1 | Heaven by Your will and mine. Can dreams content me? Can illusions | bring me happiness? What but Your memory can satisfy Your Son? I will |
| W2:275.2 | thoughts to think, what words to give the world. The safety that I | bring is given me. Father, Your Voice protects all things through me. |
| W2:281.1 | who he is, and that he is as You created him. Your Thoughts can only | bring me happiness. If ever I am sad or hurt or ill, I have forgotten |
| W2:307.1 | for it is senseless and will cause me pain. Your will alone can | bring me happiness, and only Yours exists. If I would have what only |
| W2:334.2 | his bewildered mind and frightened heart, to give him certainty and | bring him peace? Today I would behold my brother sinless. This Your |
| W2:339.1 | when he receives it? He has asked for what will frighten him and | bring him suffering. Let us resolve today to ask for what we really |
| W2:340.1 | I thank You for today and for the freedom I am certain it will | bring. This day is holy, for today Your Son will be redeemed. His |
| W2:WIM.4 | of what it cannot see and does not understand. Yet faith will | bring its witnesses to show that what it rested on is really there. |
| W2:WAI.5 | about the aim for which we came and which we seek to serve. We | bring glad tidings to the Son of God, who thought he suffered. Now is |
| M:1.4 | an ending, and it is this that the teachers of God are appointed to | bring about. For time is in their hands. Such was their choice, and |
| M:4.21 | in the curriculum. Does he still select some aspects of his life to | bring to his learning while keeping others apart? If so, his |
| M:4.25 | belongs on the curriculum. It is the function of God's teachers to | bring true learning to the world. Properly speaking it is unlearning |
| M:4.25 | learning to the world. Properly speaking it is unlearning that they | bring, for that is “true learning” in the world. It is given to the |
| M:4.25 | “true learning” in the world. It is given to the teachers of God to | bring the glad tidings of complete forgiveness to the world. Blessed |
| M:5.5 | to him, yet they but give form to his own choice. He chooses them to | bring tangible form to his desires. And it is this they do, and |
| M:8.2 | it for itself. Illusions are travesties of creation, attempts to | bring truth to lies. Finding truth unacceptable, the mind revolts |
| M:8.3 | see except through differences. Yet it is not the messages they | bring on which perception rests. Only the mind evaluates their |
| M:8.4 | correction must be made. The mind classifies what the body's eyes | bring to it according to its preconceived values, judging where each |
| M:10.6 | choice, have fallen from him. Teacher of God, this step will | bring you peace. Can it be difficult to want but this? |
| M:12.1 | upon God's Judgment, not His own. Thus does He share God's Will and | bring His Thoughts to still deluded minds. He is forever One, because |
| M:12.5 | it is weak, and being weak, it suffers and it dies. Use it to | bring the Word of God to those who have it not, and the body becomes |
| M:15.3 | you will go beyond belief to certainty. One instant out of time can | bring time's end. Judge not, for you but judge yourself and thus |
| M:16.9 | advanced state. All intermediate lessons will but lead to this and | bring this goal nearer to recognition. For magic of any kind, in all |
| M:17.8 | Into this hopeless situation God sends His teachers. They | bring the light of hope from God Himself. There is a way in which |
| M:18.2 | God created. Now He can speak the Word of God to listening ears and | bring Christ's vision to the eyes that see. Now is He free to teach |
| M:21.3 | The prayer for things of this world will | bring experiences of this world. If the prayer of the heart asks for |
| M:29.4 | the Teacher Who knows the truth has not forgotten it. His decisions | bring benefit to all, being wholly devoid of attack. And therefore |
| M:29.8 | He offers you, and all the world stands silent in the grace you | bring from Him. You are the Son He loves, and it is given you to be |

| Tx:11.6 | loving thoughts and his appeals for help, for both are capable of | bringing love into your awareness if you perceive them truly. And all |
| Tx:13.5 | seen without the past thus brings you nearer to the end of time by | bringing healed and healing sight into the darkness and enabling the |
| Tx:13.62 | Christ Who gives it to you that you may join Him in the holy task of | bringing light to darkness. For, like your brothers, you do not |
| Tx:14.27 | You must have noticed that the emphasis has been on | bringing what is undesirable to the desirable; what you do not want |
| Tx:14.38 | brings unholiness to holiness, or what you made to what you are. The | bringing together of truth and illusion, of the ego to God, is the |
| Tx:14.39 | Bringing the ego to God is but to bring error to truth, where it | |
| Tx:15.53 | as He knows you now. The holy instant parallels His knowing by | bringing all perception out of the past, thus removing the frame of |
| Tx:17.78 | See only this in every situation, and it will be a means for | bringing only this. |

| Tx:3.34 | for knowing. It is, however, a means of right perception, which | brings it into the proper domain of the miracle. Properly speaking, |
| Tx:3.35 | you are really confusing perception and cognition. Knowledge | brings the mental strength for creative thinking but not for right |
| Tx:4.86 | you can make. No one who has learned from experience that one choice | brings peace and joy while another brings chaos and disaster needs |
| Tx:4.86 | from experience that one choice brings peace and joy while another | brings chaos and disaster needs much conditioning. |
| Tx:4.101 | its attitudes to other minds which the knowledge from the revelation | brings. |
| Tx:5.16 | shift occurs. Finally, it points the way beyond the healing which it | brings and leads the mind beyond its own integration into the paths |
| Tx:5.24 | reminds. It is compelling only because of what it reminds you of. It | brings to your mind the other way, remaining quiet even in the midst |
| Tx:6.88 | must learn. The way to learn it is inherent in the third step, which | brings together the lessons implied in the others and goes beyond |
| Tx:7.36 | with His. The strength of right perception is so great that it | brings the mind into accord with His, because it yields to His pull |
| Tx:7.60 | it cannot be understood. We have already said that understanding | brings appreciation, and appreciation brings love. Nothing else can |
| Tx:7.60 | said that understanding brings appreciation, and appreciation | brings love. Nothing else can be understood, because nothing else is |
| Tx:8.93 | therefore He is your reality. If, then, His perception of your mind | brings its reality to you, He is teaching you what you are. |
| Tx:9.69 | Yet to give up the dissociation of reality | brings more than merely lack of fear. In this decision lie joy and |
| Tx:9.76 | suffer, because it cannot attack. The remembrance of love therefore | brings invulnerability with it. |
| Tx:9.94 | them that could bring joy to you. It is the denial of the spark that | brings depression, and whenever you see your brothers without it, you |
| Tx:10.16 | Every attack is a step away from this, and every healing thought | brings it closer. The Son of God has both Father and Son because he |
| Tx:11.8 | will be truly yours. Every appeal you answer in the name of Christ | brings the remembrance of your Father closer to your awareness. For |
| Tx:11.94 | as guiltless can you understand his oneness. For the idea of guilt | brings a belief in condemnation of one by another, projecting |
| Tx:12.26 | the present only as a brief transition to the future, in which it | brings the past to the future by interpreting the present in past |
| Tx:12.54 | given light to them, they will return it. Everyone you see in light | brings your light closer to your own awareness. Love always leads to |
| Tx:13.5 | same light and therefore one. Everyone seen without the past thus | brings you nearer to the end of time by bringing healed and healing |
| Tx:13.14 | Atonement | brings a re-evaluation of everything you cherish, for it is the means |
| Tx:13.59 | Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He | brings the light of truth into the darkness and lets it shine on you. |
| Tx:13.59 | you see. They will be happy learners of the lesson which this light | brings to them because it teaches them release from nothing and from |
| Tx:14.30 | darkness and lighten it away. At your request He enters gladly. He | brings the light to darkness if you make the darkness open to Him. |
| Tx:14.38 | The Atonement does not make holy. You were created holy. It merely | brings unholiness to holiness, or what you made to what you are. The |
| Tx:14.47 | has a unique function and is motivated by a unique Teacher, Who | brings the laws of another world to this one. The miracle is the one |
| Tx:14.67 | Son as he always was and not as he would make himself. The miracle | brings the effects which only guiltlessness can bring and thus |
| Tx:14.72 | and understanding go together and never can be found alone. Each | brings the other with it, for it is the law of God they be not |
| Tx:15.29 | your little world but still in you, He extends forever. Yet He | brings all his extensions to you as host to Him. |
| Tx:15.74 | forms, but it cannot long deceive those who will learn that love | brings no guilt at all, and what brings guilt cannot be love and must |
| Tx:15.74 | those who will learn that love brings no guilt at all, and what | brings guilt cannot be love and must be anger. All anger is nothing |
| Tx:15.104 | must learn that sacrifice is separation from love. For sacrifice | brings guilt as surely as love brings peace. Guilt is the condition |
| Tx:15.104 | separation from love. For sacrifice brings guilt as surely as love | brings peace. Guilt is the condition of sacrifice, as peace is the |
| Tx:16.72 | which offended it and seeks retribution of you. The fantasies it | brings to the special relationships it chooses in which to act out |
| Tx:17.11 | reasons for your making it. In the light of the real reason which He | brings, as you follow Him, He will show you that there is no reason |
| Tx:17.19 | not enter at all to “spoil” the dream. And the less the other really | brings to it, the “better” it becomes. Thus, the attempt at union |
| Tx:17.61 | of the ego's way of looking, for the ego believes the situation | brings the experience. The Holy Spirit knows that the situation is as |
| Tx:18.8 | yourself, leading you gently back to the truth and safety within. He | brings all your insane projections and your wild substitutions which |
| Tx:18.33 | in arrogance, assuming that you must achieve the state its coming | brings with it. The miracle of the holy instant lies in your |
| Tx:19.14 | faith cannot forgive. No error interferes with its calm sight, which | brings the miracle of healing with equal ease to all of them. For |
| Tx:19.15 | ground for the most holy garden which He would make of it. For faith | brings peace, and so it calls on truth to enter and make lovely what |
| Tx:19.26 | fear, is really called upon by sin and always answers. For the ego | brings sin to fear, demanding punishment. Yet punishment is but |
| Tx:19.82 | insane idea with His own, an Answer which left Him not and therefore | brings the Creator to the awareness of every mind which heard His |
| Tx:20.13 | and look on him with the new vision that looks upon the lilies and | brings you joy. We go beyond the veil of fear, lighting each other's |
| Tx:20.71 | when looked upon with vision. For this is not your sight, and | brings with it the laws beloved of Him Whose sight it is. |
| Tx:21.30 | but always with faith and with the persistence that faith inevitably | brings. The power of faith is never recognized if it is placed in |
| Tx:21.37 | is accomplished. Brothers, the Holy Spirit knows that sacrifice | brings nothing. He makes no bargains. And if you seek to limit Him, |
| Tx:21.47 | The song of freedom, which sings the praises of another world, | brings to it hope of peace. For it remembers Heaven, and now it sees |
| Tx:21.66 | you want, and all you want. Listen to Him Who speaks with reason and | brings your reason into line with His. Be willing to let reason be |
| Tx:22.16 | though each one seems to be the way to lose the misery the other | brings. Every illusion carries pain and suffering in the dark folds |
| Tx:22.31 | Reason is not salvation in itself, but it makes way for peace and | brings you to a state of mind in which salvation can be given you. |
| Tx:22.56 | and yet you will remember. Who can deny himself the vision that he | brings to others? And who would fail to recognize a gift he let be |
| Tx:22.64 | From loving minds there is no separation. And every thought in one | brings gladness to the other because they are the same. Joy is |
| Tx:24.18 | one meaning. And it is one you both can understand, and one which | brings release to both of you. Here stands your brother with the key |
| Tx:25.29 | as the same, your choice is made. For it is seeing them as one that | brings release from the belief there are two ways to see. This world |
| Tx:25.44 | at twilight. And they turn away from sunlight and the clarity it | brings to what they look upon. Dimness seems better—easier to see |
| Tx:25.44 | see? The wish to see calls down the grace of God upon your eyes and | brings the gift of light that makes sight possible. |
| Tx:25.63 | it than that you keep it for yourself alone and recognize that what | brings loss to no one you would not know. This much is necessary to |
| Tx:25.72 | to you the gifts the innocent deserve. And every one that you accept | brings joy to Him as well as you. He knows that Heaven is richer made |
| Tx:25.77 | Son. This is the only justice Heaven knows, and all the Holy Spirit | brings to earth. Your special function shows you nothing else but |
| Tx:26.28 | Forgiveness | brings no little miracles to lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the |
| Tx:26.28 | Heaven. Here the Son of God Himself comes to receive each gift that | brings him nearer to his home. Not one is lost, and none is cherished |
| Tx:26.46 | your Friend. And it is He who is your only Friend in truth. He | brings you gifts that are not of this world, and only He to whom they |
| Tx:26.73 | not come, although already there? You have been told that everything | brings good that comes from God. And yet it seems as if this is not |
| Tx:27.4 | The power of witness is beyond belief because it | brings conviction in its wake. The witness is believed because he |
| Tx:27.16 | Forgiveness is not real unless it | brings a healing to your brother and yourself. You must attest his |
| Tx:27.47 | apart from you when you accept the blessing that the holy instant | brings? Be not afraid of blessing, for the One Who blesses you loves |
| Tx:27.57 | a witness to your life in Him Who knows no death. Each miracle He | brings is witness that the body is not real. Its pains and pleasures |
| Tx:27.58 | which you called your suffering. It is no longer there. The One Who | brings the miracle perceived them all as one and called by name of |
| Tx:27.58 | It is a witness no one can deny, for it is the effects of life it | brings. The dying live, the dead arise, and pain has vanished. Yet a |
| Tx:27.74 | the place of those you dreamed in terror and in fear of death. He | brings forgiving dreams in which the choice is not who is the |
| Tx:27.74 | who is the murderer and who shall be the victim. In the dreams He | brings, there is no murder and there is no death. The dream of guilt |
| Tx:27.83 | which dreams your dreams and thinks your thoughts instead of you. It | brings its vengeance, not your own. It keeps you narrowly confined |
| Tx:27.87 | until it has been learned, regardless of the form of suffering that | brings you pain. Whatever hurt you bring to Him He will make answer |
| Tx:28.56 | punish you and thus deserve your hatred for the limitations which it | brings to you. Yet you have made of it a symbol for the limitations |
| Tx:29.14 | else His gifts of peace and joy and all the happiness His Presence | brings can be obtained. For they are where He is Who brought them |
| Tx:29.32 | can but be found in him. And every thought of love you offer him but | brings you nearer to your wakening to peace eternal and to endless |
| Tx:29.43 | no other answer you can substitute and find the happiness His answer | brings. Seek not outside yourself. For all your pain comes simply |
| Tx:29.63 | idols which are interposed between your judgment and the penalty it | brings. |
| Tx:29.68 | heard it since before all time began. Forgiveness, once complete, | brings timelessness so close the song of Heaven can be heard, not |
| Tx:31.8 | to the whole is heard throughout the world this second lesson | brings. |
| Tx:31.72 | yours. And let the cruel concept of yourself be changed to one which | brings the peace of God. |
| Tx:31.78 | of himself between his calm and open eyes and what he sees. He | brings the light to what he looks upon, that he may see it as it |
| W1:16.3 | salvation requires that you recognize that every thought you have | brings either peace or war, either love or fear. A neutral result is |
| W1:52.2 | never frightening. It is impossible that it could upset me. Reality | brings only perfect peace. When I am upset, it is always because I |
| W1:58.3 | Everyone and everything I see in its light shares in the joy it | brings to me. There is nothing that is apart from this joy because |
| W1:61.4 | perfect answer to all illusions and therefore to all temptation. It | brings all the images you have made about yourself to the truth and |
| W1:63.4 | The light of the world | brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. I am the means God |
| W1:74.2 | to recognize this today and experience the peace this recognition | brings. |
| W1:80.3 | One problem—one solution. Accept the peace this simple statement | brings. |
| W1:80.5 | Now let the peace that your acceptance | brings be given you. Close your eyes and receive your reward. |
| W1:82.2 | [63] The light of the world | brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. My forgiveness is |

| W1:94.1 | Today we continue with the one idea which | brings complete salvation; the one statement which makes all forms of |
| W1:99.6 | This is the thought which | brings illusions to the truth, and sees them as appearances behind |
| W1:101.10 | from madness. You are set on freedom's road, and now today's idea | brings wings to speed you on and hope to go still faster to the |
| W1:103.6 | your mind each waking hour today. Then welcome all the happiness it | brings, as truth replaces fear, and joy becomes what you expect to |
| W1:108.3 | and vision, being healed, has power to heal. This is the light that | brings your peace of mind to other minds, to share it and be glad |
| W1:108.3 | you and with themselves. This is the light which heals because it | brings single perception, based upon one frame of reference from |
| W1:117.2 | also happiness. Let me remember love is happiness and nothing else | brings joy. And so I choose to entertain no substitutes for love. |
| W1:122.4 | promise never to be kept can hold more hope than what forgiveness | brings? Why would you seek an answer other than the answer that will |
| W1:122.11 | of questions answered, and what your acceptance of the answer | brings. Today it will be given you to feel the peace forgiveness |
| W1:123.5 | be. Thanks be to you who heard, for you become the messenger who | brings His Voice with you and let it echo round and round the world. |
| W1:133.6 | you just a little, for there is no in-between. Each choice you make | brings everything to you or nothing. Therefore, if you learn the |
| W1:136.8 | a thing that happens to you quite unsought, which makes you weak and | brings you suffering. It is a choice you make, a plan you lay when |
| W1:140.3 | The happy dreams the Holy Spirit | brings are different from the dreaming of the world, where one can |
| W1:140.7 | world provides that can effect a change in anything. The mind that | brings illusions to the truth is really changed. There is no change |
| W1:153.2 | The world gives rise but to defensiveness. For threat | brings anger, anger makes attack seem reasonable, honestly provoked, |
| W1:153.12 | gladly laid aside when children come to see the benefits salvation | brings. |
| W1:154.5 | nor ask why he has chosen those who will receive the message that he | brings. It is enough that he accept it, give it to the ones for whom |
| W1:157.2 | learned already and prepares us for what we have yet to learn. It | brings us to the door where learning ceases, and we catch a glimpse |
| W1:157.3 | learn to do increasingly, as every lesson, faithfully rehearsed, | brings you more swiftly to this holy place and leaves you for a |
| W1:161.2 | of all seeing is to show you what you wish to see. All hearing but | brings to your mind the sounds it wants to hear. |
| W1:169.7 | experience we try to hasten. Yet forgiveness, taught and learned, | brings with it the experiences which bear witness that the time the |
| W1:170.1 | safe because of cruelty. You mean that you believe to hurt another | brings you freedom. And you mean that to attack is to exchange the |
| W1:R5.7 | that waits to meet us at the journey's ending. Every step we take | brings us a little nearer. This review will shorten time immeasurably |
| W1:I2.2 | alone cannot convey the sense of liberation which their lifting | brings. But the experience of freedom and of peace that comes as you |
| W1:182.4 | go is holy ground. It is His holiness that lights up Heaven and that | brings to earth the pure reflection of the light above, wherein are |
| W1:187.3 | you will not believe that this is done until you see the miracles it | brings to everyone you look upon. Herein is the idea of giving |
| W1:188.3 | eternal. It removes all thoughts of the ephemeral and valueless. It | brings renewal to all tired hearts and lights all vision as it passes |
| W1:193.12 | God would have him not forget His Love and all the gifts His Love | brings with it. Would you now renounce your own salvation? Would you |
| W1:193.20 | words. And then you hold the key that opens Heaven's gate and | brings the Love of God the Father down to earth at last, to raise it |
| W1:198.8 | but Truth could have a thought which builds a bridge to truth which | brings illusions to the other side? |
| W1:199.8 | more, and Heaven offers thanks for the increase of joy your practice | brings even to it. And God Himself extends His Love and happiness |
| W2:267.1 | healed, and all I need to save the world is given me. Each heartbeat | brings me peace; each breath infuses me with strength. I am a |
| W2:288.1 | This is the thought that leads the way to You and | brings me to my goal. I cannot come to You without my brother. And to |
| W2:WIRW.1 | to what you made. Your world is seen through eyes of fear and | brings the witnesses of terror to your mind. The real world cannot be |
| W2:WISC.2 | things with you. There is no end to the release the Second Coming | brings, as God's creation must be limitless. Forgiveness lights the |
| W2:E.5 | sure that hell will claim you not and that each choice you make | brings Heaven nearer to your reach. And so we walk with Him from this |
| M:14.2 | real. Here is His home, for here there is need of Him indeed. He | brings the ending of the world with Him. It is His Call God's |
| M:14.4 | of its thinking will still seem sensible. The final lesson which | brings the ending of the world cannot be grasped by those not yet |
| M:14.5 | is laughter, who can longer weep? And only complete forgiveness | brings all this to bless the world. In blessing it departs, for it |
| M:19.3 | the lens which, held before the body's eyes, distorts perception and | brings witness of the distorted world back to the mind that made the |
| M:20.2 | previous experiences. It calls to mind nothing that went before. It | brings with it no past associations. It is a new thing entirely. |

| Tx:18.12 | it. Would you still further weaken and break apart what is already | broken and hopeless? Is it here that you would look for happiness? Or |

brother (365) | ||
| Tx:1.72 | the stranger without. By bringing in the stranger, he becomes your | brother. |
| Tx:1.78 | It is therefore an inappropriate reaction to me. An elder | brother is entitled to respect for his greater experience and a |
| Tx:1.78 | for his greater wisdom. He is also entitled to love because he is a | brother and also to devotion if he is devoted. It is only my devotion |
| Tx:1.80 | I bridge the distance as an elder | brother to man on the one hand and as a Son of God on the other. My |
| Tx:2.43 | talent of protecting others. The inner self knows itself as both a | brother and a Son. You know that when defenses are disrupted, there |
| Tx:4.1 | The Bible says that you should go with a | brother twice as far as he asks. It certainly does not suggest that |
| Tx:4.1 | does not suggest that you set him back on his journey. Devotion to a | brother cannot set you back either. It can lead only to mutual |
| Tx:4.20 | never for your Soul. A father can safely leave a child with an elder | brother who has shown himself responsible, but this involves no |
| Tx:4.20 | but this involves no confusion about the child's origin. The | brother can protect the child's body and his ego, which are very |
| Tx:4.58 | your ego together but has literally split your mind. As a loving | brother, I am deeply concerned with your mind and urge you to follow |
| Tx:4.90 | I want. I will bring it to God for you, knowing that to know your | brother is to know God. A little knowledge is an all-encompassing |
| Tx:4.91 | As you come closer to a | brother, you do approach me and, as you withdraw from him, I become |
| Tx:5.4 | Let me know this | brother as I know myself. |
| Tx:5.32 | The way to learn to know your | brother is by perceiving the Holy Spirit in him. We have already said |
| Tx:5.33 | brothers. Since thoughts do not have to be conscious to exist, your | brother does not have to be aware of the Holy Spirit either in |
| Tx:5.34 | Your | brother may have dissociated the Call for God, just as you have. The |
| Tx:5.34 | and thus acknowledge its being. There are two ways of seeing your | brother which are diametrically opposed to each other. They must both |
| Tx:5.34 | and you will recognize Him in yours. What you acknowledge in your | brother you are acknowledging in yourself, and what you share you |
| Tx:5.53 | It means that you cannot be hurt and do not want to show your | brother anything except your wholeness. Show him that he cannot hurt |
| Tx:5.54 | you belong, and how can you find this way except by taking your | brother with you? |
| Tx:5.55 | and know that he belongs to God as you do. How could you treat your | brother better than by rendering unto God the things which are God's? |
| Tx:6.1 | wholly irrational premises, the equally irrational conclusion that a | brother is worthy of attack rather than of love follows. What can be |
| Tx:6.21 | to have called forth upon Judas was a similar reversal. Judas was my | brother and a Son of God, as much a part of the Sonship as myself. |
| Tx:7.9 | because of the elements which they share, can transfer to it. When a | brother perceives himself as sick, he is perceiving himself as not |
| Tx:7.10 | To heal, then, is to correct perception in your | brother and yourself by sharing the Holy Spirit with him. This places |
| Tx:7.48 | you are learning. You are recognizing the changeless mind in your | brother by realizing that he could not have changed his mind. That is |
| Tx:7.70 | Whenever you deny a blessing to a | brother, you will feel deprived. This is because denial is as total |
| Tx:7.72 | When a | brother acts insanely, he is offering you an opportunity to bless |
| Tx:7.73 | Teach no one that he is what you would not want to be. Your | brother is the mirror in which you will see the image of yourself as |
| Tx:7.78 | are taking it from you. One must be fearful if he believes that his | brother is attacking him to tear the Kingdom of Heaven from him. This |
| Tx:7.79 | of this as you are, are out to take God from you. Whenever a | brother attacks another, this is what he believes. Projection always |
| Tx:7.111 | and appreciate and know. Perceiving the Majesty of God as your | brother is to accept your own inheritance. God gives only equally. If |
| Tx:7.112 | only the whole Sonship can create like Him. Whenever you heal a | brother by recognizing his worth, you are acknowledging his power to |
| Tx:8.21 | Whenever you are with a | brother, you are learning what you are because you are teaching what |
| Tx:8.57 | Loss of any kind is impossible. When you look upon a | brother as a physical entity, his power and glory are lost to you, |
| Tx:8.67 | No more are any of the results of your condemnation. When you see a | brother as a body, you are condemning him because you have condemned |
| Tx:8.110 | be shaken. Can you ask of the Holy Spirit truly and doubt your | brother? Believe his words are true because of the truth which is in |
| Tx:8.111 | The message your | brother gives you is up to you. What does he say to you? What would |
| Tx:8.111 | in him, and His Voice speaks to you through him. What can so holy a | brother tell you except truth? But are you listening to it? Your |
| Tx:8.111 | a brother tell you except truth? But are you listening to it? Your | brother may not know who he is, but there is a light in his mind |
| Tx:8.112 | Salvation is of your | brother. The Holy Spirit extends from your mind to his and answers |
| Tx:8.112 | that it is for you unless you hear it in others. It must be for your | brother because it is for you. Would God have created a Voice for you |
| Tx:8.112 | hear His answer except as He answers all of God's Sons? Hear of your | brother what you would have me hear of you, for you would not want me |
| Tx:8.119 | Because I will to know myself, I see you as God's Son and my | brother. |
| Tx:9.2 | lies solely in the relinquishment of the ego. When you correct a | brother, you are telling him that he is wrong. He may be making no |
| Tx:9.4 | Him, you are listening to your ego and making as little sense as the | brother whose errors you perceive. This cannot be correction. Yet it |
| Tx:9.5 | When a | brother behaves insanely, you can heal him only by perceiving the |
| Tx:9.5 | this different from telling you that what you teach you learn? Your | brother is as right as you are, and if you think he is wrong, you are |
| Tx:9.7 | The Holy Spirit in you forgives all things in you and in your | brother. His errors are forgiven with yours. Atonement is no more |
| Tx:9.7 | because it comes from love. Any attempt you make to correct a | brother means that you believe correction by you is possible, and |
| Tx:9.9 | believe what your perception holds. Accept as true only what your | brother is if you would know yourself. Perceive what he is not, and |
| Tx:9.32 | will not always recognize His consistency. What you offer to your | brother, you offer to Him because He cannot go beyond your offering |
| Tx:9.33 | than He is. Would you know what this means? If what you do to my | brother you do to me, and if you do everything for yourself because |
| Tx:9.37 | you, and you are incomplete without your creations. Accept your | brother in this world and accept nothing else, for in him you will |
| Tx:9.37 | know that you are co-creator with God until you learn that your | brother is a co-creator with you. |
| Tx:9.80 | When a | brother is sick, it is because he is not asking for peace and |
| Tx:9.91 | It is an act of faith, because it is the recognition that his | brother can do it. It is a call to the Holy Spirit in his mind, a |
| Tx:9.91 | the miracle worker has heard Him, he strengthens His Voice in a sick | brother by weakening his belief in sickness, which he does not share. |
| Tx:10.4 | My | brother, you are part of God and part of me. When you have at last |
| Tx:10.5 | restore it to yourself. For you dwell in the Mind of God with your | brother, for God Himself did not will to be alone. |
| Tx:10.17 | of God. Every healing thought which you accept, either from your | brother or in your own mind, teaches you that you are God's Son. In |
| Tx:10.33 | because the light He created is one with Him. Would you cut off a | brother from the light that is yours? You would not do so if you |
| Tx:10.58 | Every | brother you meet becomes a witness for Christ or for the ego, |
| Tx:10.58 | is a witness to the thought system you want to be true. Every | brother has the power to release you if you will to be free. You |
| Tx:10.62 | as you live in everyone. Can you, then, perceive unworthiness in a | brother and not perceive it in yourself? And can you perceive it in |
| Tx:10.84 | Do not, then, be deceived in your | brother and see only his loving thoughts as his reality, for by |
| Tx:10.85 | presence of God's answer? Ask, then, to learn of the reality of your | brother because this is what you will perceive in him, and you will |
| Tx:10.86 | you cannot perceive part of you as sick and achieve your own goal. | Brother, we heal together as we live together and love together. Be |
| Tx:10.87 | If you perceive offense in a | brother, pluck the offense from your mind, for you are offended by |
| Tx:11.6 | do need His. Only appreciation is an appropriate response to your | brother. Gratitude is due him for both his loving thoughts and his |
| Tx:11.7 | them to you because they are for you. Do not attempt to “help” a | brother in your way, for you cannot help yourselves. But hear his |
| Tx:11.15 | of God. You can remember this for all the Sonship. Do not allow your | brother not to remember, for his forgetfulness is yours. But your |
| Tx:11.15 | This is what you have forgotten. To perceive the healing of your | brother as the healing of yourself is thus the way to remember God. |
| Tx:11.16 | Perceive in sickness but another call for love and offer your | brother what he believes he cannot offer himself. Whatever the |
| Tx:11.16 | health is to recognize in hatred the call for love. And to give a | brother what he really wants is to offer it unto yourself, for your |
| Tx:11.16 | is to offer it unto yourself, for your Father wills you to know your | brother as yourself. Answer his call for love and yours is answered. |
| Tx:11.25 | Suppose a | brother insists on having you do something you think you do not want |
| Tx:11.26 | Whenever you become angry with a | brother, for whatever reason, you are believing that the ego is to be |
| Tx:11.27 | outrageous, for nothing can be asked of you, and every request of a | brother is for you. Why would you insist in denying him? For to do so |
| Tx:12.27 | let it go. You thus deny yourself the message of release that every | brother offers you now. |
| Tx:12.37 | it comes it is not recognized. If you see your own hatred as your | brother, you are not seeing him. Everyone draws nigh unto what he |
| Tx:12.45 | reality leaves no room for any error. This means that you perceive a | brother only as you see him now. His past has no reality in the |
| Tx:12.45 | what was now. If you remember the past as you look upon your | brother, you will be unable to perceive the reality that is now. |
| Tx:12.49 | The miracle enables you to see your | brother without his past and so perceive him as born again. His |
| Tx:13.9 | the power to create the witnesses to [yours, which is as His. Deny a | brother here, and you deny the witnesses to] your fatherhood in |
| Tx:13.14 | because you see the past and see him not. When you condemn a | brother, you are saying, “I who was guilty choose to remain so.” You |
| Tx:13.22 | In any union with a | brother in which you seek to lay your guilt upon him or share it with |
| Tx:13.30 | true, you will have no idea what love is like. No one who condemns a | brother can see himself as guiltless in the peace of God. If he is |
| Tx:13.70 | he binds himself to darkness because he did not choose to free his | brother and enter light with him. By giving power to nothing, he |
| Tx:14.52 | is merely form, and nothing else. For you do not respond to what a | brother really offers you, but only to the particular perception of |
| Tx:14.56 | Holy Spirit is nothing. Every interpretation you would lay upon a | brother is senseless. Let the Holy Spirit show him to you and teach |
| Tx:14.57 | is the recognition that this is true. Where there is love, your | brother must give it to you because of what it is. But where there is |
| Tx:15.13 | be yours alone. Remember, then, when you are tempted to attack a | brother, that his instant of release is yours. Miracles are the |
| Tx:15.13 | for His use of it. How long is an instant? It is as short for your | brother as it is for you. Practice giving this blessed instant of |
| Tx:15.19 | A Son of God who has been released through the Holy Spirit in a | brother, if the release is complete, is always recognized. He cannot |
| Tx:15.34 | God and of the Heaven that is in him. For where you would help your | brother be, there will you think you are. Hear not his call for hell |
| Tx:15.54 | meaning apart from His, and it is impossible to understand it. Every | brother God loves as He loves you—neither less nor more. He needs |
| Tx:15.56 | as you accept the possibility, and cherish it, that you can make a | brother what he is not because you would have him so. |
| Tx:15.76 | body is companionship, you will be compelled to attempt to keep your | brother in his body, held there by guilt. And you will see safety in |
| Tx:15.88 | its demands to make little and ineffectual. Limit your vision of a | brother to his body, which you will do as long as you would not |
| Tx:16.6 | The triumph of weakness is not what you would offer to a | brother. And yet you know no triumph but this. This is not knowledge, |
| Tx:16.7 | try to substitute your “miracle” for this. We once said that if a | brother asks a foolish thing of you, to do it. But be certain that |
| Tx:18.45 | It is no dream to love your | brother as yourself. Nor is your holy relationship a dream. All that |
| Tx:18.48 | I desire this holy instant for myself that I may share it with my | brother, whom I love. It is not possible that I can have it without |
| Tx:18.82 | You could no more know God alone than He knows you without your | brother. But together you could no more be unaware of love than love |
| Tx:19.4 | straight to illusions. For faithlessness is the perception of a | brother as a body, and the body cannot be used for purposes of union. |
| Tx:19.4 | body cannot be used for purposes of union. If, then, you see your | brother as a body, you have established a condition in which uniting |
| Tx:19.10 | from the past, which you received. You do not use anything your | brother has done before to condemn him now. You freely choose to |
| Tx:19.98 | obstacle alone, for he could not have reached thus far unless his | brother walked beside him. And no one would dare to look on it |
| Tx:19.98 | no one would dare to look on it without complete forgiveness of his | brother in his heart. Stand you here a while and tremble not. You |
| Tx:19.99 | to which everyone must come when he is ready. Once he has found his | brother, he is ready. Yet merely to reach the place is not enough. A |
| Tx:19.101 | This | brother who stands beside you still seems to be a stranger. You do |
| Tx:19.103 | the worshipers of sin, know not Whom they attack. This is your | brother, crucified by sin, and waiting for release from pain. Would |
| Tx:19.104 | forgive is free, and what you give you share. Forgive the sins your | brother thinks he has committed and all the guilt you think you see |
| Tx:19.105 | return until redemption is accomplished and received. Think who your | brother is before you would condemn him. And offer thanks to God that |
| Tx:19.106 | to give. Into the hands that give the gift is given. Look on your | brother, and see in him the gift of God you would receive. It is |
| Tx:19.107 | Free your | brother here, as I freed you. Give him the self-same gift, nor look |
| Tx:20.5 | lovely what you hate. Would you employ this hated thing to draw your | brother to you and to attract his body's eyes? Learn you but offer |
| Tx:20.7 | and take it for their own. Here is the value that you lay upon your | brother and on yourself. Here is your gift to both; your judgment on |
| Tx:20.13 | Would you not have your holy | brother lead you there? His innocence will light your way, offering |
| Tx:20.27 | as surely as God created His Son holy and kept him so. In your | brother is the light of God's eternal promise of your immortality. |
| Tx:20.29 | enter than can their source. And therein lies your need to see your | brother sinless. In him is Heaven. See sin in him instead, and Heaven |
| Tx:20.32 | as they received. See, then, the power of sinlessness within your | brother and share with him the power of the release from sin you |
| Tx:20.50 | from Him. But what you do not realize is what you fear within your | brother and would not see in him is what makes God seem fearful to |
| Tx:20.61 | It is impossible to see your | brother as sinless and yet to look upon him as a body. Is this not |
| Tx:20.62 | sin. It cannot be attained but in illusion, and so the illusion of a | brother as a body is quite in keeping with the purpose of unholiness. |
| Tx:20.65 | it cannot look on sin. And thus it leads you to reality. Your holy | brother, sight of whom is your release, is no illusion. Attempt to |
| Tx:20.66 | Your question should not be, “How can I see my | brother without the body?” Ask only, “Do I really wish to see him |
| Tx:20.67 | but they will be enough to show you what is given you who see your | brother sinless. Truth is restored to you through your desire, as it |
| Tx:20.68 | either means or end. All this is given you who would but see your | brother sinless. All this is given, waiting on your desire but to |
| Tx:20.69 | at one with Him on what salvation is. Be willing, then, to see your | brother sinless that Christ may rise before your vision and give you |
| Tx:21.19 | rests. This was not given you. This was your gift to you and to your | brother. Be willing, then, to have it taken from him and be replaced |
| Tx:21.27 | madness of its maker, and cannot serve to justify the madness. Your | brother thinks he made the world with you. Thus he denies creation. |
| Tx:21.29 | is adjusted. Forget not this—to bargain is to set a limit, and any | brother with whom you have a limited relationship you hate. You may |
| Tx:21.35 | the body has your faith and your belief. But holiness would set your | brother free, removing hatred by removing fear, not as a symptom, but |
| Tx:21.45 | This part has seen your | brother and recognized him perfectly since time began. And it desired |
| Tx:21.59 | and you allow it not to do so, you deny it to yourself and to your | brother. And if he shares this same belief, you both will think that |
| Tx:21.60 | Correction cannot be accepted or refused by you without your | brother. Sin would maintain it can. Yet reason tells you that you |
| Tx:21.60 | would maintain it can. Yet reason tells you that you cannot see your | brother or yourself as sinful and still perceive the other innocent. |
| Tx:21.63 | The body does not separate you from your | brother, and if you think it does, you are insane. But madness has a |
| Tx:21.64 | Reason will tell you that this fact is your release. Neither your | brother nor yourself can be attacked alone. But neither can accept a |
| Tx:21.67 | an instant in the glad acceptance of what is given you to give your | brother, and learn with him what has been given both of you. To give |
| Tx:21.68 | what you must be. Your Father is as close to you as is your | brother. Yet what is there that could be nearer you than is your Self? |
| Tx:21.71 | hate. They are indeed a sorry army, each one as likely to attack his | brother or turn upon himself as to remember they thought they had a |
| Tx:22.28 | gladly is His vision given to anyone who is but willing to see his | brother sinless. And no one can remain beyond this willingness if you |
| Tx:22.28 | of perfect purity, and God created it for you. Look on your holy | brother, sinless as yourself, and let him lead you there. |
| Tx:22.36 | from you by what the body's eyes can see. Let your awareness of your | brother not be blocked by your perception of his sins and of his |
| Tx:22.50 | seem to stand, heavy and solid and immovable, between you and your | brother. And not one that truth cannot pass over lightly and so |
| Tx:23.16 | with Him. You are not strangers in the house of God. Welcome your | brother to the home where God has set him in serenity and peace and |
| Tx:23.31 | Never is your possession made complete. And never will your | brother cease his attack on you for what you stole. Nor will God end |
| Tx:23.42 | a blessing and a sign the Voice for God speaks through you to your | brother? The wrapping does not make the gift you give. An empty box, |
| Tx:23.42 | nor the giver is long deceived. Withhold forgiveness from your | brother, and you attack him. You give him nothing and receive of him |
| Tx:24.7 | decisions. Here is the grand illusion of what you are and what your | brother is. And here is what must make the body dear and worth |
| Tx:24.7 | be defended. Illusions can attack it, and they do. For what your | brother must become to keep your specialness is an illusion. He who |
| Tx:24.8 | Would it be possible for you to hate your | brother if you were like him? Could you attack him if you realized |
| Tx:24.8 | And what decision can be made for this that will not hurt you? Your | brother is your friend because his Father created him like you. There |
| Tx:24.11 | is specialness but an attack upon the Will of God? You love your | brother not while it is this you would defend against him. This is |
| Tx:24.18 | and one which brings release to both of you. Here stands your | brother with the key to Heaven in his hand held out to you. Let not |
| Tx:24.21 | if He is not special, then He willed His Son be like Him, and your | brother is like you. Not special, but possessed of everything |
| Tx:24.25 | The key you threw away God gave your | brother, whose holy hands would offer it to you when you were ready |
| Tx:24.31 | is barred to love and to salvation. Yet if you would release your | brother from the depths of hell, you have forgiven Him Whose Will it |
| Tx:24.38 | and consider well, whether it is your wish that you might see your | brother sinless. To specialness the answer must be “no.” A sinless |
| Tx:24.38 | brother sinless. To specialness the answer must be “no.” A sinless | brother is its enemy, while sin, if it were possible, would be its |
| Tx:24.39 | you suffer pain of any kind, you have beheld some sin within your | brother and have rejoiced at what you thought was there. Your |
| Tx:24.43 | it lead but to destruction? Yet think not that it looked upon your | brother first, nor hated him before it hated you. The sin its eyes |
| Tx:24.47 | Son could never will that you be brotherless. And would He give a | brother unto you except he be as perfect as yourself and just as like |
| Tx:24.49 | leave His own creation. And the sign that this is so lies in your | brother, offered you that all your doubts about yourself may |
| Tx:24.51 | has no meaning in eternity where He abides and you with Him. Your | brother is as He created him. And it is this that saves you from a |
| Tx:24.53 | Look on your | brother and behold in him the whole reversal of the laws that seem to |
| Tx:24.54 | and the world's, is set the shining memory of Him in Whom your | brother lives and you along with him. Let not your eyes be blinded by |
| Tx:24.57 | you. Futility of function not fulfilled will haunt you while your | brother lies asleep, till what has been assigned to you is done and |
| Tx:24.58 | of Him with equal love [and care]. The Christ in you can see your | brother truly. Would you decide against the holiness He sees? |
| Tx:24.63 | The memory of God shines not alone. What is within your | brother still contains all of creation, everything created and |
| Tx:24.72 | beloved son. The other rests within, His Father's Son, within your | brother as he is in you. Their difference does not lie in how they |
| Tx:25.3 | and love to heal their minds. Such is the mission that your | brother has for you. And such it must be that your mission is for him. |
| Tx:25.4 | the mind at one with Him. And you are manifest unto your holy | brother, as he to you. Here is the meeting of the holy Christ unto |
| Tx:25.5 | The message and the messenger are one. And you must see your | brother as yourself. Framed in his body, you will see your sinfulness |
| Tx:25.16 | as if a masterpiece were there to see? Yet if you see your | brother as a body, it is but this you do. The masterpiece that God |
| Tx:25.19 | Within the darkness, see the savior from the dark and understand your | brother as his Father's Mind shows him to you. He will step forth |
| Tx:25.20 | when any part of Him joins in His praise, to share His joy. This | brother is His perfect gift to you. And He is glad and thankful when |
| Tx:25.21 | Forgive your | brother, and you cannot separate yourself from him nor from his |
| Tx:25.21 | who but extend His Will. It was for this you were created and your | brother with you and at one with you. |
| Tx:25.22 | in will that you be made complete by offering completion to your | brother. See not in him the sinfulness he sees, but give him honor |
| Tx:25.42 | hates you, thinking Heaven must be hell. Look once again upon your | brother, not without the understanding that he is the way to Heaven |
| Tx:25.45 | Will you behold your | brother? God is glad to have you look on him. He does not will your |
| Tx:25.48 | His wish was not denied but changed in form to let it serve his | brother and himself and thus become a means to save instead of lose. |
| Tx:26.1 | of power in the name of saving just a little for yourself. To see a | brother in another body separate from yours is the expression of a |
| Tx:26.3 | And to accept the limits of a body is to impose these limits on each | brother whom you see. For you must see him as you see yourself. |
| Tx:26.4 | body is a loss and can be made to sacrifice. And while you see your | brother as a body, apart from you and separate in his cell, you are |
| Tx:26.6 | of showing you that it has not been lost. Hear then the song your | brother sings to you. And let the world recede and take the rest his |
| Tx:26.54 | Sins are beliefs which you impose between your | brother and yourself. They limit you to time and place and give a |
| Tx:26.54 | apart and separate. Forgiveness takes away what stands between your | brother and yourself. It is the wish that you be joined with him and |
| Tx:26.63 | because the truth is in your memory. And to this name, your | brother calls for his release and yours. Heaven is shining on the Son |
| Tx:26.66 | in peace, where God would have you be, and be the means whereby your | brother finds the peace in which your wishes are fulfilled. Let us |
| Tx:26.66 | And everything belongs to each of them. No wishes lie between a | brother and his own. To get from one is to deprive them all. And yet |
| Tx:26.77 | you must be from whom the Voice for God calls lovingly unto your | brother, that you may awake in him the Voice that answers to your |
| Tx:26.78 | one you cherish still? Forget not that a shadow held between your | brother and yourself obscures the face of Christ and memory of God. |
| Tx:26.89 | You think your | brother is unfair to you because you think that one must be unfair to |
| Tx:27.1 | on your path, or you will weave a crown of thorns from which your | brother and yourself will not escape. You cannot crucify yourself |
| Tx:27.3 | unfairly treated, or in need of anything, you but accuse your | brother of attack upon God's Son. You hold a picture of your |
| Tx:27.4 | seek to kill. Death seems an easy price if they can say, “Behold me, | brother; at your hand I die.” For sickness is the witness to his |
| Tx:27.5 | what it represents. The bleak and bitter picture you have sent your | brother you have looked upon in grief. And everything that it has |
| Tx:27.6 | Show this unto your | brother, who will see that every scar is healed and every tear is |
| Tx:27.7 | speak for and represent. And each has many voices, speaking to your | brother and yourself in different tongues. And yet to both the |
| Tx:27.10 | Your function is to [prove to] your | brother that sin can have no cause. How futile must it be to see |
| Tx:27.11 | power to represent an endless life, forever unattacked. And to your | brother let its message be, “Behold me, brother; at your hand I live.” |
| Tx:27.11 | unattacked. And to your brother let its message be, “Behold me, | brother; at your hand I live.” |
| Tx:27.13 | the damaged have no grounds for peace. Who has been injured by his | brother and could love and trust him still? He has attacked and will |
| Tx:27.14 | first establish sin and then forgive it. Who can say and mean, “My | brother, you have injured me, and yet because I am the better of the |
| Tx:27.15 | done to you deserves no pardon. And by giving it, you grant your | brother mercy but retain the proof he is not really innocent. The |
| Tx:27.16 | Forgiveness is not real unless it brings a healing to your | brother and yourself. You must attest his sins had no effect on you |
| Tx:27.16 | be healed that you may be forgiving, offering salvation to your | brother and yourself. A broken body shows the mind has not been |
| Tx:27.18 | his own, will yet be the last trumpet that the world will ever hear. | Brother, there is no death. And this you learn when you but wish to |
| Tx:27.18 | there is no death. And this you learn when you but wish to show your | brother that you had no hurt of him. He thinks your blood is on his |
| Tx:27.19 | they bestow an equal gift of full deliverance from guilt upon your | brother and yourself. Your healing saves him pain as well as you, and |
| Tx:27.19 | with no effects. Your health is a result of your desire to see your | brother with no blood upon his hands nor guilt upon his heart made |
| Tx:27.23 | yours in someone else. And thus does he become your victim, not your | brother, different from you in that he is more guilty, thus in need |
| Tx:27.26 | to its accuser, who hated it and hates it still. This is your | brother, focus of your hate, unworthy to be part of you and thus |
| Tx:27.30 | You have decided that your | brother is a symbol for a “hateful-love,” a “weakened-power,” and |
| Tx:27.31 | The picture of your | brother that you see means nothing. There is nothing to attack or to |
| Tx:27.31 | What can the causeless be but nothingness? The picture of your | brother that you see is wholly absent and has never been. Let then |
| Tx:27.34 | The picture of your | brother given you to occupy the space so lately left unoccupied and |
| Tx:27.49 | upon the Friend who brought them their release. And happily your | brother will perceive the many friends he thought were enemies. |
| Tx:27.52 | be proved to you by all the many different witnesses it finds. Your | brother first among them will be seen, but thousands stand behind |
| Tx:27.67 | this is where your guilt was first beheld. In separation from your | brother was the first attack upon yourself begun. And it is this the |
| Tx:27.72 | A | brother separated from yourself, an ancient enemy, a murderer who |
| Tx:27.72 | murderer, the secret enemy, the scavenger and the destroyer of [the] | brother and the world alike. Here is the cause of suffering, the |
| Tx:27.73 | [A gentler dream, in which his suffering was healed and where his | brother was his friend.] God willed he waken gently and with joy. And |
| Tx:27.75 | Dream softly of your sinless | brother, who unites with you in holy innocence. And from this dream, |
| Tx:27.76 | his Father, Whom you see as offering both life and death to you. | Brother, He gives but life. Yet what you see as gifts your brother |
| Tx:27.76 | to you. Brother, He gives but life. Yet what you see as gifts your | brother offers represent the gifts you dream your Father gives to |
| Tx:27.83 | is time made real; a part of God which can attack itself; a separate | brother as an enemy; a mind within a body, all are forms of |
| Tx:27.85 | effects removed. Perhaps you come in tears, but hear Him say, “My | brother, Holy Son of God, behold your idle dream in which this could |
| Tx:27.90 | this that has maintained you separate from the world and kept your | brother separate from you. Now need you but to learn that both of you |
| Tx:28.22 | dream. He gives himself the consequences which he dreams he gave his | brother. And it is but this the dream has put together and has |
| Tx:28.30 | bodies which are separated and which cannot join. Do not allow your | brother to be sick, for if he is, have you abandoned him to his own |
| Tx:28.35 | miracles. And where the gap was seen to stand between you, join your | brother there. And sickness will be seen without a cause. The dream |
| Tx:28.39 | Like you, your | brother thinks he is a dream. Share not in his illusion of himself, |
| Tx:28.39 | him as a mind in which illusions still persist, but as a mind which | brother is to you. He is not brother made by what he dreams, nor is |
| Tx:28.39 | still persist, but as a mind which brother is to you. He is not | brother made by what he dreams, nor is his body, “hero” of the dream, |
| Tx:28.39 | made by what he dreams, nor is his body, “hero” of the dream, your | brother. It is his reality that is your brother, as is yours to him. |
| Tx:28.39 | “hero” of the dream, your brother. It is his reality that is your | brother, as is yours to him. Your mind and his are joined in |
| Tx:28.43 | be united with him. He has dream[ed] that he was separated from his | brother who, by sharing not his dream, has left the space between |
| Tx:28.49 | upon your Self, which seems to be your enemy, and will attack your | brother as a part of what you hate. There is no compromise. You are |
| Tx:28.57 | self be lost. This is the secret vow which you have made with every | brother who would walk apart. This is the secret oath you take again, |
| Tx:28.58 | oath to be forever faithful unto death. And by his healing is his | brother healed. |
| Tx:28.62 | Either there is a gap between you and your | brother, or you are as one. There is no in between, no other choice, |
| Tx:29.1 | fail. All this do you believe, when you perceive a gap between your | brother and yourself. How could you trust Him, then? For He must be |
| Tx:29.3 | seem dark and fearful, perilous and bleak. You had decided that your | brother is your enemy. Sometimes a friend, perhaps, provided that |
| Tx:29.22 | The coming of the light means it is gone. In glory will you see your | brother then and understand what really fills the gap so long |
| Tx:29.23 | create, but which you can extend. On earth this means forgive your | brother, that the darkness may be lifted from your mind. When light |
| Tx:29.29 | seem to be what they are for. A shadow figure who attacks becomes a | brother giving you a chance to help if this becomes the function of |
| Tx:29.30 | What is your | brother for? You do not know because your function is obscure to you. |
| Tx:29.35 | lay bloody hands on Heaven itself and hope to find its peace? Your | brother thinks he holds the hand of death. Believe him not. But learn |
| Tx:29.38 | How willing are you to forgive your | brother? How much do you desire peace instead of endless strife and |
| Tx:29.52 | are for and why they have been made. An idol is an image of your | brother which you would value more than what he is. Idols are made |
| Tx:29.55 | across the face of Christ because its purpose is to separate your | brother from yourself. A dark and fearful purpose, yet a thought |
| Tx:29.60 | make of Heaven less, to give you more than God bestowed upon your | brother and on you as one with Him? God gave you all there is. And to |
| Tx:30.37 | is healed. And now is God forgiven, for you chose to look upon your | brother as a friend. |
| Tx:30.62 | again that what is his be given back to him. The gap between your | brother and yourself was never there. And what the Son of God knew in |
| Tx:30.68 | Be merciful unto your | brother, then. And do not choose an idol thoughtlessly, remembering |
| Tx:30.73 | think of its Creator as it looks upon itself. If you can see your | brother merits pardon, you have learned forgiveness is your right as |
| Tx:30.73 | you think that God intends for you a fearful judgment which your | brother does not merit. For it is the truth that you can merit |
| Tx:30.77 | Look on your | brother with the willingness to see him as he is. And do not keep a |
| Tx:30.81 | Look on your | brother with this hope in you, and you will understand he could not |
| Tx:30.87 | goal gives one interpretation, meaningful to you and to your | brother. Thus can you communicate with him and he with you. In |
| Tx:30.90 | attests salvation from appearances by showing they can change. Your | brother has a changelessness in him beyond appearance and deception |
| Tx:30.93 | happy form, devoid of fear. It will be given you to look upon your | brother thus. But not while you would have it otherwise in some |
| Tx:30.93 | will be certain you are like Him, for He is the changeless in your | brother and in you. |
| Tx:30.94 | there is not one appearance you would hold in place of what your | brother really is. Let no temptation to prefer a dream allow |
| Tx:31.16 | and give away the role of leadership. And this is what you made your | brother for and learned to think that this his purpose is. Unless he |
| Tx:31.19 | The answer that I give my | brother is what I am asking for. And what I learn of him is what I |
| Tx:31.20 | we thought we heard; remembering how much we do not know. This | brother neither leads nor follows us but walks beside us on the |
| Tx:31.23 | Forgive your | brother all appearances, which are but ancient lessons that you |
| Tx:31.24 | both may learn you love each other with a brother's love. And as a | brother, must his Father be the same as yours, as he is like yourself. |
| Tx:31.26 | shortened by a span of time you cannot realize. You never hate your | brother for his sins, but only for your own. Whatever form his sins |
| Tx:31.32 | to change, and there will be no ancient penalty exacted from your | brother or yourself. For God has said there is no sacrifice that can |
| Tx:31.40 | All choices in the world depend on this—you choose between your | brother and yourself, and you will gain as much as he will lose, and |
| Tx:31.40 | truth is this, when the lesson's purpose is to teach that what your | brother loses you have lost and what he gains is what is given you. |
| Tx:31.48 | Here is the central lesson that ensures your | brother is condemned eternally. For what you are has now become his |
| Tx:31.48 | silently, and yet with ceaseless urgency condemning still your | brother for the hated thing you are. |
| Tx:31.51 | Let us consider then what proof there is that you are what your | brother made of you. For even though you do not yet perceive that |
| Tx:31.52 | That you are what your | brother made of you seems most unlikely. Even if he did, who gave the |
| Tx:31.52 | parts to what you think yourself to be. If one was generated by your | brother, who was there to make the other? And from whom must |
| Tx:31.54 | must be. You might for instance be the thing you chose to have your | brother be. This shifts the concept of the self from what is wholly |
| Tx:31.54 | was it that did the choosing first? If you are what you chose your | brother be, alternatives were there to choose among, and someone must |
| Tx:31.55 | almost equal loss, for now you stand accused of guilt for what your | brother is. And you must share his guilt because you chose it for him |
| Tx:31.69 | innocence, for you are too confused about yourself. But should one | brother dawn upon your sight as wholly worthy of forgiveness, then |
| Tx:31.75 | to his care. And this he learns when first he looks upon one | brother as he looks upon himself and sees the mirror of himself in |
| Tx:31.76 | for just one error—that there is a space between you and your | brother, kept apart by an illusion of yourself which holds him off |
| Tx:31.76 | of yourself that it may fight to keep the space that holds your | brother off unoccupied by love. Yet while you hold this sword, you |
| Tx:31.77 | miserable and remain in hell and torment? Who has learned to see his | brother not as this has saved himself, and thus is he a savior to the |
| Tx:31.79 | longer is held dear. But while you cherish it, you will behold your | brother in the likeness of the self whose image has the wish begot of |
| Tx:31.80 | The savior's vision is as innocent of what your | brother is as it is free of any judgment made upon yourself. It sees |
| Tx:31.87 | and each perplexity Christ calls to you and gently says, “My | brother, choose again.” He would not leave one source of pain |
| Tx:31.96 | In joyous welcome is my hand outstretched to every | brother who would join with me in reaching past temptation and who |
| W1:43.2 | perception becomes the means by which the Son of God forgives his | brother and thus forgives himself. |
| W1:69.1 | now with him who stood beside you when you were in hell. He is your | brother in the light of the world which saves you both. |
| W1:72.6 | hold insists that the body is real. It overlooks entirely what your | brother is. It reinforces your belief that he is a body and condemns |
| W1:105.8 | My | brother, peace and joy I offer you, that I may have God's peace and |
| W1:105.12 | Determine not to interfere today with what He wills. And if a | brother seems to tempt you to deny God's gift to him, see it as but |
| W1:105.12 | to let yourself receive the gifts of God as yours. Then bless your | brother thankfully, and say: |
| W1:105.13 | My | brother, peace and joy I offer you, that I may have God's peace and |
| W1:107.10 | thought which gave the gift of life to Him as well. He is your | brother and so like to you your Father knows that you are both the |
| W1:108.5 | correction will suffice for all correction or that to forgive one | brother wholly is enough to bring salvation to all minds. For these |
| W1:109.10 | You rest within the peace of God today, quiet and unafraid. Each | brother comes to take his rest and offer it to you. |
| W1:110.8 | Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of God and | brother to the world—the savior who has been forever saved, with |
| W1:110.8 | Him however lightly, asking for the Word that tells him he is | brother unto Him. |
| W1:127.12 | I bless you, | brother, with the Love of God which I would share with you. For I |
| W1:134.7 | guilt. It looks on them with quiet eyes and merely says to them, “My | brother, what you think is not the truth.” |
| W1:134.9 | follow in the way your true forgiveness opens up to you. For if one | brother has received this gift of you, the door is open to yourself. |
| W1:134.17 | Then choose one | brother as He will direct, and catalogue his “sins,” as one by one |
| W1:134.18 | the escape from all the heavy chains you sought to lay upon your | brother which were laid upon yourself. |
| W1:151.7 | He will not tell you that your | brother should be judged by what your eyes behold in him, nor what |
| W1:158.10 | well. This lesson is not difficult to learn if you remember in your | brother you but see yourself. If he be lost in sin, so must you be; |
| W1:158.10 | you see light in him, your sins have been forgiven by yourself. Each | brother whom you meet today provides another chance to let Christ's |
| W1:159.2 | as accomplished in yourself when you forgive. You recognize your | brother as yourself and thus do you perceive that you are whole. |
| W1:160.10 | not remember Him until you look on all as He does. Who denies his | brother is denying Him and thus refusing to accept the gift of sight |
| W1:161.4 | One | brother is all brothers. Every mind contains all minds, for every |
| W1:161.8 | Who sees a | brother as a body sees him as fear's symbol. And he will attack |
| W1:161.12 | Select one | brother, symbol of the rest, and ask salvation of him. See him first |
| W1:161.16 | Be sure you use it instantly, should you be tempted to attack a | brother and perceive in him the symbol of your fear. And you will see |
| W1:162.6 | And who would not be | brother to you now—you, his redeemer and his savior. Who could fail |
| W1:R5.9 | My resurrection comes again each time I lead a | brother safely to the place at which the journey ends and is forgot. |
| W1:R5.9 | at which the journey ends and is forgot. I am renewed each time a | brother learns there is a way from misery and pain. I am reborn each |
| W1:181.1 | doubt and lack of sure conviction in yourself. When you attack a | brother, you proclaim that he is limited by what you have perceived |
| W1:182.11 | against an enemy without existence. Christ has called you friend and | brother. He has even come to you to ask your help in letting Him go |
| W1:183.6 | And should you join a | brother as you sit with him in silence and repeat God's Name along |
| W1:184.8 | true in earth and Heaven is beyond your naming. When you call upon a | brother, it is to his body that you make appeal. His true Identity is |

| W2:247.1 | His sight shows me as the simple truth and I am healed completely. | Brother, come and let me look on you. Your loveliness reflects my |

| W2:288.1 | cherish it within my heart or I will lose the way to walk to You. My | brother is my savior. Let me not attack the savior You have given me. |
| W2:288.2 | today. And you will know you have forgiven me if you behold your | brother in the light of holiness. He cannot be less holy than can I, |

| W2:315.1 | the day, in value far beyond all things of which I can conceive. A | brother smiles upon another, and my heart is gladdened. Someone |
| W2:316.1 | the holy mind my Father loves. His grace is given me in every gift a | brother has received throughout all time and past all time as well. |
| W2:334.2 | to give him certainty and bring him peace? Today I would behold my | brother sinless. This Your Will for me, for thus will I behold my |

| W2:342.2 | Brother, forgive me now. I come to you to take you home with me. And | |

| Tx:9.3 | If you point out the errors of your | brother's ego, you must be seeing through yours, because the Holy |
| Tx:9.7 | Your | brother's errors are not of him any more than yours are of you. |
| Tx:10.86 | Do not accept your | brother's variable perception of himself, for his split mind is |
| Tx:11.5 | is the modern equivalent of the inquisition, for in both a | brother's errors are “uncovered” and he is then attacked for his own |
| Tx:11.6 | Yet this is what you are maintaining when you refuse to recognize a | brother's appeal, for only by answering his appeal can you be helped. |
| Tx:11.8 | Your interpretations of your | brother's need is your interpretation of yours. By giving help you |
| Tx:13.86 | When you accept a | brother's guiltlessness, you will see the Atonement in him. For by |
| Tx:13.86 | you will see what you sought. You will not see the symbol of your | brother's guiltlessness shining within him while you still believe it |
| Tx:19.32 | While you believe that your reality or your | brother's is bounded by a body, you will believe in sin. While you |
| Tx:20.39 | It is impossible to overestimate your | brother's value. Only the ego does this, but all it means is that it |
| Tx:20.39 | wait in patience for its coming. It will be given you to see your | brother's worth when all you want for him is peace. And what you want |
| Tx:20.41 | Your | brother's body is as little use to you as it is to him. When it is |
| Tx:20.43 | prisoner to pain and death must be forgotten. This is no gift your | brother's body offers you. The veil that hides the gift hides him as |
| Tx:20.63 | Who sees a | brother's body has laid a judgment on him and sees him not. He does |
| Tx:20.63 | to truth and always hidden from it. And here in darkness is your | brother's reality imagined as a body, in unholy relationships with |
| Tx:20.69 | Your | brother's sinlessness is given you in shining light, to look on with |
| Tx:20.69 | rise before your vision and give you joy. And place no value on your | brother's body, which holds him to illusions of what he is. It is his |
| Tx:21.67 | You are your | brother's savior. He is yours. Reason speaks happily indeed of this. |
| Tx:23.30 | justified. Behold, unveiled, the ego's secret gift, torn from your | brother's body, hidden there in malice and in hatred for the one to |
| Tx:24.20 | and every vestige of the fear of God will melt away in love. Your | brother's specialness and yours are enemies and bound in hate to kill |
| Tx:24.22 | and kept separate from what it is and must forever be. You are your | brother's; part of love was not denied to him. But can it be that you |
| Tx:24.27 | seems to give you power has taken it away. For you have given your | brother's birthright to it, leaving him alone and unforgiven and |
| Tx:24.38 | its enemy, while sin, if it were possible, would be its friend. Your | brother's sins would justify itself and give it meaning that the |
| Tx:24.42 | He sees, the sounds He hears. How beautiful His hand that holds His | brother's, and how lovingly He walks beside him, showing him what can |
| Tx:24.46 | in you now and safely held in you by that same hand that holds your | brother's in your own. Christ's hand holds all His brothers in |
| Tx:24.49 | Before your | brother's holiness the world is still and peace descends on it in |
| Tx:24.50 | that is not part of Him, and nothing is but is alive in Him. Your | brother's holiness shows you that God is one with him and you—that |
| Tx:24.54 | and find no sight nor place nor time where He is not. Within your | brother's holiness, the perfect frame for your salvation and the |
| Tx:24.54 | God no longer hold the vision you were meant to see from you. Your | brother's body shows not Christ to you. He is set forth within his |
| Tx:24.55 | where is God Himself but in that part of Him He set forever in your | brother's holiness that you might see the truth about yourself set |
| Tx:24.56 | Your | brother's holiness is sacrament and benediction unto you. His errors |
| Tx:24.61 | You who believe it easier to see your | brother's body than his holiness, be sure you understand what made |
| Tx:24.65 | condemn it to decay and death. And if you see this purpose in your | brother's, such is your condemnation of your own. Weave, rather then, |
| Tx:25.28 | to bring him joy. How can a misperception be a sin? Let all your | brother's errors be to you nothing except a chance for you to see the |
| Tx:26.5 | and limitless as Heaven itself. No instant passes here in which your | brother's holiness cannot be seen, to add a limitless supply to every |
| Tx:26.67 | Your ancient name belongs to everyone, as theirs to you. Call on your | brother's name and God will answer, for on Him you call. Could He |
| Tx:27.4 | to what he represents. A sick and suffering you but represents your | brother's guilt—the witness which you send lest he forget the |
| Tx:27.15 | reigns can suffer. He holds not the proof of sin before his | brother's eyes. And thus he must have overlooked it and removed it |
| Tx:27.21 | Who then fears healing? Only those to whom their | brother's sacrifice and pain are seen to represent their own |
| Tx:27.25 | correct is only half the error, which you think is all of it. Your | brother's sins become the central target for correction, lest your |
| Tx:27.53 | you forever. Your healing will be one of its effects, as will your | brother's. Everywhere you go will you behold its multiplied effects. |
| Tx:27.75 | Lord of Heaven will Himself awaken His beloved Son. Dream of your | brother's kindnesses instead of dwelling in your dreams on his |
| Tx:27.76 | represent the gifts you dream your Father gives to you. Let all your | brother's gifts be seen in light of charity and kindness offered you. |
| Tx:27.85 | and you will leave the holy instant with your laughter and your | brother's joined with His. |
| Tx:28.29 | by both your minds, from separate points of view. Uniting with a | brother's mind prevents the cause of sickness and perceived effects. |
| Tx:28.44 | sees this picture, he will recognize himself. If you share not your | brother's evil dream, this is the picture that the miracle will place |
| Tx:28.46 | Join not your | brother's dreams but join with him, and where you join His Son, the |
| Tx:28.66 | Your home is built upon your | brother's health, upon his happiness, his sinlessness, and everything |
| Tx:29.22 | yourself. Yet you can let yourself be wakened. You can overlook your | brother's dreams. So perfectly can you forgive him his illusions, he |
| Tx:29.34 | vain illusion of the world. And being empty, they received instead a | brother's hand in which completion lay. |
| Tx:31.24 | but one purpose—that you both may learn you love each other with a | brother's love. And as a brother, must his Father be the same as |
| W1:R5.9 | learns there is a way from misery and pain. I am reborn each time a | brother's mind turns to the light in him and looks for me. I have |

| W1:181.5 | we have lost this goal if anger blocks our way in any form. And if a | brother's sins occur to us, our narrowed focus will restrict our |
| W2:288.1 | my Source, I first must recognize what You created one with me. My | brother's is the hand that leads me on the way to You. His sins are |
| W2:335.1 | to see what I would look upon, and this I see and only this. My | brother's sinlessness shows me that I would look upon my own. And I |

brotherhood (4) | ||
| Tx:28.39 | is your brother, as is yours to him. Your mind and his are joined in | brotherhood. His body and his dreams but seem to make a little gap, |
| Tx:28.40 | separate from you. Therefore, release him, merely by your claim on | brotherhood and not on dreams of fear. Let him acknowledge who he is |
| W1:185.14 | the hope that lies beyond despair, the love attack would hide, the | brotherhood that hate has sought to sever, but which still remains as |

brotherless (1) | ||
| Tx:24.47 | He Who willed not to be without His Son could never will that you be | brotherless. And would He give a brother unto you except he be as |
brothers (218) | ||
| Tx:1.29 | which I undertook to begin. When you offer a miracle unto any of my | brothers, you do it unto yourself and me. The reason you come before |
| Tx:1.33 | 27. A miracle is a universal blessing from God through me to all my | brothers. It is the privilege of the forgiven to forgive. |
| Tx:1.47 | forgive in return. It is the duty of the released to release their | brothers. |
| Tx:1.48 | of Atonement. Those released by Christ must join in releasing their | brothers, for this is the plan of the Atonement. Miracles are the way |
| Tx:1.59 | 41. The miracle acknowledges all men as your | brothers and mine. It is a way of perceiving the universal mark of |
| Tx:1.59 | God's Sons does not stem from exclusion but from inclusion. All my | brothers are special. If they believe they are deprived of anything, |
| Tx:1.80 | on the one hand and as a Son of God on the other. My devotion to my | brothers has placed me in charge of the Sonship, which I can render |
| Tx:1.80 | close to the Holy Spirit and alert to the revelation-readiness of my | brothers. I can thus bring down to them more than they can draw down |
| Tx:1.104 | into believing that we can relate in peace to God or to our | brothers with anything external.” |
| Tx:3.63 | release and deep peace that comes from meeting yourselves and your | brothers totally without judgment. When you recognize what you and |
| Tx:3.63 | totally without judgment. When you recognize what you and your | brothers are, you will realize that judging them in any way is |
| Tx:4.90 | each other, and one moment of real recognition makes all men your | brothers because they are all of your Father. Love does not conquer |
| Tx:4.91 | from me. God will come to you only as you will give Him to your | brothers. Learn first of them, and you will be ready to hear God as |
| Tx:5.3 | You are being blessed by every beneficent thought of any of your | brothers anywhere. You should want to bless them in return out of |
| Tx:5.29 | Hear only this through the Holy Spirit within you, and teach your | brothers to listen as I am teaching you. When you are tempted by the |
| Tx:5.33 | by being given away. It increases in you as you give it to your | brothers. Since thoughts do not have to be conscious to exist, your |
| Tx:5.55 | me. You will forsake yourselves and God if you forsake any of your | brothers. You are more than your brother's keeper. In fact, you do |
| Tx:5.56 | opposing thoughts. The Holy Spirit does not let you forsake your | brothers. Therefore, you can really share only the parts of your |
| Tx:5.73 | of His fairness, and let me teach you how to share it with your | brothers. How else can the chance to claim it for yourself be given |
| Tx:5.91 | giving will heal you. Sanity is wholeness, and the sanity of your | brothers is yours. |
| Tx:6.10 | therefore made it forever true for me. Help me to teach it to our | brothers in the name of the Kingdom of God, but first believe that it |
| Tx:6.11 | My | brothers slept during the so-called “agony in the garden,” but I |
| Tx:6.11 | not being at all in need of bodily protection. I am sorry when my | brothers do not share my decision to hear only one voice, because it |
| Tx:6.15 | My | brothers and yours are constantly engaged in justifying the |
| Tx:6.27 | is solely a device of the ego to make you feel different from your | brothers and separated from them. The ego justifies this on the |
| Tx:6.28 | projection only to distort your perception both of yourself and your | brothers. The process begins by excluding something [you think] |
| Tx:6.28 | which you do not want and leads directly to excluding you from your | brothers. We have learned, however, that there is another use of |
| Tx:6.48 | with it, and the ego feels badly in need of allies though not of | brothers. Perceiving something alien to itself in your mind, the ego |
| Tx:7.27 | therefore in need of allies. You who are not at war must look for | brothers and recognize all whom you see as brothers, because only |
| Tx:7.27 | not at war must look for brothers and recognize all whom you see as | brothers, because only equals are at peace. |
| Tx:7.28 | everything, they cannot compete. Yet if they perceive any of their | brothers as anything other than their perfect equals, the idea of |
| Tx:7.29 | thought, because it is a reflection of perfect Thought. It sees only | brothers, because it sees only in its own light. |
| Tx:7.38 | the ego has induced in you by not recognizing its existence in your | brothers. This strengthens the Holy Spirit in both of you, because it |
| Tx:7.47 | The unhealed healer wants gratitude from his | brothers, but he is not grateful to them. This is because he thinks |
| Tx:7.51 | Him. To forget me is to forget yourself and Him Who created you. Our | brothers are forgetful. That is why they need your remembrance of me |
| Tx:7.52 | learn of the truth in you. The mind we share is shared by all our | brothers, and as we see them truly, they will be healed. Let your |
| Tx:7.77 | they are deprived. Give therefore of your abundance and teach your | brothers theirs. Do not share their delusions of scarcity, or you |
| Tx:7.79 | you have been treacherous to your Creator, it believes that your | brothers, who are as incapable of this as you are, are out to take |
| Tx:7.92 | The Soul knows that the consciousness of all its | brothers is included in its own, as it is included in God. The power |
| Tx:7.97 | are reflections both of your own proper identification with your | brothers and of your own awareness that your identification is |
| Tx:7.112 | You do not know your creations, because you do not know your | brothers, who created them with you. We said before that only the |
| Tx:8.23 | your wrong decisions are undone, completely releasing you and your | brothers from every imprisoning thought any part of the Sonship has |
| Tx:8.42 | We begin the journey back by setting out together and gather in our | brothers as we continue together. Every gain in our strength is |
| Tx:8.53 | of himself in this way, he is belittling himself and seeing his | brothers as similarly belittled. Since he can find himself only in |
| Tx:8.54 | Holy Spirit reaches through it to others. You do not perceive your | brothers as the Holy Spirit does, because you do not interpret their |
| Tx:8.79 | The Holy Spirit teaches you to use your body only to reach your | brothers, so He can teach His message through you. This will heal |
| Tx:8.113 | in you, who speaks to me through you. If you would hear me, hear my | brothers in whom God's Voice speaks. The answer to all prayers lies |
| Tx:8.114 | Believe in your | brothers because I believe in you, and you will learn that my belief |
| Tx:9.33 | If your | brothers are part of you, will you accept them? Only they can teach |
| Tx:9.34 | as yours, but meanwhile you will judge it as you judge your | brothers' and will accept it as you accept theirs. |
| Tx:9.38 | it, He must have made it possible and very easy to obtain it. Your | brothers are everywhere. You do not have to seek far for salvation. |
| Tx:9.38 | your will? And is it possible that this is not also the will of your | brothers? |
| Tx:9.75 | the remembrance of Him awakens throughout the Sonship. Heal your | brothers simply by accepting God for them. |
| Tx:9.78 | you. To obtain this you are willing to attack the divinity of your | brothers and thus lose sight of yours. And you are willing to keep it |
| Tx:9.84 | other gods before Him. You can give up the god of sickness for your | brothers; in fact, you would have to do so if you give him up for |
| Tx:9.91 | a Son of God who has laid aside all false gods and who calls on his | brothers to do likewise. It is an act of faith, because it is the |
| Tx:9.94 | it is the message you want. You may believe that you judge your | brothers by the messages they give you, but you have judged them by |
| Tx:9.94 | of the spark that brings depression, and whenever you see your | brothers without it, you are denying God. |
| Tx:9.99 | He created, for His Son is everywhere. Look with peace upon your | brothers, and God will come rushing into your heart in gratitude for |
| Tx:10.24 | wanders homelessly. At home in God, he is lonely, and amid all his | brothers, he is friendless. Would God let this be real if He did not |
| Tx:10.30 | All your | brothers must enter with you, for until you have accepted them, you |
| Tx:10.32 | remembering that it is yours because it is His, and join with your | brothers in His peace. |
| Tx:10.35 | If your | brothers are part of you and you blame them for your deprivation, you |
| Tx:10.60 | join in the resurrection or the crucifixion? Would you condemn your | brothers or free them? Would you transcend your prison and ascend to |
| Tx:10.88 | laughs happily at his own fear. You, my children, are afraid of your | brothers and of your Father and of yourselves. But you are merely |
| Tx:10.89 | truth again when they are frightened. It is not the reality of your | brothers or your Father or yourself which frightens you. You do not |
| Tx:11.15 | of yourself is thus the way to remember God. For you forgot your | brothers with Him, and God's answer to your forgetting is but the way |
| Tx:11.27 | Recognize what does not matter, and if your | brothers ask you for something “outrageous,” do it because it does |
| Tx:11.40 | you yours, for your mission is the same as His. By guiding your | brothers home, you are but following Him. |
| Tx:11.43 | yourself as weakened. No longer perceiving yourself and all your | brothers as equal and regarding yourself as weaker, you attempt to |
| Tx:11.71 | Yet in that same place, you could have looked upon me and all your | brothers in the perfect safety of the mind which created us. For we |
| Tx:12.18 | of Him. You will find this place of truth as you see it in your | brothers, for though they may deceive themselves, like you they long |
| Tx:12.27 | In effect, if you follow the ego's dictates, you will react to your | brothers as though they were someone else, and this will surely |
| Tx:12.34 | were never real, for they are made up only of his reactions to his | brothers and do not include their reactions to him. Therefore he does |
| Tx:12.36 | Yet what is within they do not see, for the reality of their | brothers they cannot see. |
| Tx:12.37 | the figures of fear you have invited into it, and all the love your | brothers offer you, you do not see. As you look with open eyes upon |
| Tx:12.40 | You will see all that you denied in your | brothers because you denied it in yourself. For you will love them, |
| Tx:12.46 | holding it in your minds, see it as a dark cloud that shrouds your | brothers and conceals their reality from your sight. |
| Tx:12.51 | The present offers you your | brothers in the light that would unite you with them and free you |
| Tx:12.52 | salvation, for now is the release from time. Reach out to all your | brothers and touch them with the touch of Christ. In timeless union |
| Tx:12.52 | There is no darkness in him anywhere, for he is whole. Call all your | brothers to witness to his wholeness, as I am calling you to join |
| Tx:12.53 | Shine on your | brothers in remembrance of your Creator, for you will remember Him as |
| Tx:12.56 | dream of isolation because your eyes are closed. You do not see your | brothers, and in the darkness you cannot look upon the light you gave |
| Tx:12.75 | that is the gift of God. Hold me dear, for what except your | brothers can you need? We will restore to you the peace of mind that |
| Tx:12.75 | a veil of light across the world's sad face, in which we hide our | brothers from the world, and it from them. |
| Tx:13.8 | When you have seen your | brothers as yourself, you will be released to knowledge, having |
| Tx:13.8 | light you saw outside yourself in every miracle you offered to your | brothers will be returned to you. And knowing that the light is in |
| Tx:13.9 | As miracles in this world join you to your | brothers, so do your creations establish your fatherhood in Heaven. |
| Tx:13.16 | make you free of it, accept His offer of Atonement for all your | brothers. For so you learn that it is true for you. Remember always |
| Tx:13.18 | you and bids you not to look. Instead, it bids you look upon your | brothers and see the guilt in them. Yet this you cannot do without |
| Tx:13.18 | this you cannot do without remaining blind. For those who see their | brothers in the dark, and guilty in the dark in which they shroud |
| Tx:13.23 | meaning in the present. Yet you let them stand between you and your | brothers, with whom you find no real relationships at all. Can you |
| Tx:13.23 | you find no real relationships at all. Can you expect to use your | brothers as a means to “solve” the past and still to see them as they |
| Tx:13.23 | as they really are? Salvation is not found by those who use their | brothers to resolve problems which are not there. You wanted not |
| Tx:13.28 | not remember your Father's Love. And looking without mercy upon your | brothers, you do not remember how much you love Him. Yet it is |
| Tx:13.59 | into the darkness and lets it shine on you. And as it shines, your | brothers see it, and realizing that this light is not what you have |
| Tx:13.62 | Him in the holy task of bringing light to darkness. For, like your | brothers, you do not realize the light has come and freed you from |
| Tx:13.63 | Behold your | brothers in their freedom and learn of them how to be free of |
| Tx:15.13 | on behalf of your release while you are unwilling to give it to your | brothers on behalf of theirs. For the instant of holiness is shared, |
| Tx:15.18 | you. You who have spent days, hours, and even years in chaining your | brothers to your egos in an attempt to support it and uphold its |
| Tx:15.18 | Source of strength. In the holy instant, you will unchain all your | brothers and refuse to support either their weakness or your own. |
| Tx:15.19 | You do not realize how much you have misused your | brothers by seeing them as sources of ego support. As a result, they |
| Tx:15.53 | the frame of reference you have built by which to judge your | brothers. Once this is gone, the Holy Spirit substitutes His frame of |
| Tx:15.54 | Yet in the holy instant, you unite directly with God, and all your | brothers join in Christ. Those who are joined in Christ are in no way |
| Tx:15.57 | doubt. But forget not that my faith must be as perfect in all your | brothers as it is in you, or it would be a limited gift to you. In |
| Tx:15.60 | The holy instant thus becomes a lesson in how to hold all of your | brothers in your mind, experiencing not loss, but completion. From |
| Tx:15.64 | God is remembered, and the language of communication with all your | brothers is remembered with Him. For communication is remembered |
| Tx:15.64 | vanishes. And this permits your Source and that of all your | brothers to replace it in your awareness. God and the power of God |
| Tx:15.85 | As the ego would limit your perception of your | brothers to the body, so would the Holy Spirit release your vision |
| Tx:15.94 | no attraction for you. For in our union, you will accept all of our | brothers. The gift of union is the only gift that I was born to give. |
| Tx:15.101 | safety by attempting to protect yourself from where it is not. Your | brothers and your Father have become very fearful to you. And you |
| Tx:15.104 | with God. Through guilt you exclude your Father and your | brothers from yourself. Through peace you invite them back and |
| Tx:15.108 | The lesson I was born to teach and still would teach to all my | brothers is that sacrifice is nowhere and love is everywhere. For |
| Tx:16.37 | with them is without guilt, and this enables you to look on all your | brothers with gratitude because your creations were created in union |
| Tx:16.63 | the only value which the body has is to enable you to bring your | brothers to the bridge with you and to be released together there. |
| Tx:16.78 | that must be forgiven are the illusions you have held against your | brothers. Their reality has no past, and only illusions can be |
| Tx:16.78 | anyone, for He is incapable of illusions of any kind. Release your | brothers from the slavery of their illusions by forgiving them for |
| Tx:17.1 | forgiven, but awakened. In his dreams he has betrayed himself, his | brothers, and his God. Yet what is done in dreams has not been really |
| Tx:17.26 | My holy | brothers, I would enter into all your relationships and step between |
| Tx:17.26 | be real to you, and let me bring reality to your perception of your | brothers. They were not created to enable you to hurt yourselves |
| Tx:18.10 | the holy place in which you stand together. God is with you, my | brothers. Let us join in Him in peace and gratitude and accept His |
| Tx:19.37 | try to impose. Others will seem to arise from elsewhere—from your | brothers and from various aspects of the world outside. Yet peace |
| Tx:19.39 | apart from Him. You cannot see the Holy Spirit, but you can see your | brothers truly. And the light in them will show you all that you need |
| Tx:19.41 | of sand, a wall of dust, a tiny seeming barrier, stand between your | brothers and salvation? And yet, it is this little remnant of attack |
| Tx:19.85 | the life that He created against the ego's savage wish to kill. My | brothers, children of our Father, this is a dream of death. There is |
| Tx:19.101 | all the pity and forgiveness that would heal it gives way to fear. | Brothers, you need forgiveness of each other, for you will share in |
| Tx:20.26 | free in Paradise. And here would I unite with you, my friends, my | brothers, and my Self. Your gift unto each other has given me the |
| Tx:20.34 | only to have His laws perfectly fulfilled in them and all their | brothers. Think you when this has been achieved that you will rest |
| Tx:20.49 | and seeks for crumbs to keep itself alive. Here it would drag its | brothers, holding them here in its idolatry. Here it is “safe,” for |
| Tx:20.51 | seeming firm foundation of their temple begin to shake and loosen. | Brothers, you tremble with them. Yet what you fear is but the herald |
| Tx:21.7 | so it is with all who see the body as all they have and all their | brothers have. They try to reach each other, and they fail and fail |
| Tx:21.34 | wills for you. You made perception that you might choose among your | brothers and seek for sin with them. The Holy Spirit sees perception |
| Tx:21.36 | Those who would free their | brothers from the body can have no fear. They have renounced the |
| Tx:21.36 | to let all limitations be removed. Desiring to look upon their | brothers in holiness, the power of belief and faith goes far beyond |
| Tx:21.37 | sacrifice, for this is how they think their purpose is accomplished. | Brothers, the Holy Spirit knows that sacrifice brings nothing. He |
| Tx:21.43 | to bother to pretend it is your friend. Those who have joined their | brothers have detached themselves from their belief that their |
| Tx:22.1 | to make a different error, and one the other cannot understand. | Brothers, it is the same, made by the same, and forgiven for its |
| Tx:22.2 | them. Who has need for sin? Only the lonely and alone who see their | brothers different from themselves. It is this difference, seen but |
| Tx:22.12 | Think what is given you, my holy | brothers. This child will teach you what you do not understand and |
| Tx:23.10 | Brothers, the war against yourself is almost over. The journey's end | |
| Tx:23.36 | them. And when you look at what they say, they cannot be believed. | Brothers, you do believe them. For how else could you perceive the |
| Tx:23.40 | Brothers, take not one step in the descent to hell. For having taken | |
| Tx:24.24 | here but unto you and you alone, apart and separate from all your | brothers, safe from all intrusions of sanity upon illusions, safe |
| Tx:24.46 | that holds your brother's in your own. Christ's hand holds all His | brothers in Himself. He gives them vision for their sightless eyes |
| Tx:25.8 | understand. Father and Son and Holy Spirit are as One, as all your | brothers join as one in truth. Christ and His Father never have been |
| Tx:25.85 | Unless you think that all your | brothers have an equal right to miracles with you, you will not claim |
| Tx:27.15 | really innocent. The sick remain accusers. They cannot forgive their | brothers and themselves as well. For no one in whom true forgiveness |
| Tx:28.34 | of the world. The door is open, not to thieves but to your starving | brothers who mistook for gold the shining of a pebble and who stored |
| Tx:28.61 | The beautiful relationship you have with all your | brothers is a part of you because it is a part of God Himself. Are |
| Tx:29.50 | making real the pictures it projects outside itself? Save time, my | brothers; learn what time is for. And speed the end of idols in a |
| Tx:29.67 | over. And the forms which enter in the dream are now perceived as | brothers, not in judgment but in love. |
| Tx:30.63 | When | brothers join in purpose in the world of fear, they stand already at |
| Tx:30.88 | so seemingly unsafe that fear must rise. Do not continue thus, my | brothers. We have one Interpreter. And through His use of symbols are |
| Tx:30.88 | the same to all of us. Our common language lets us speak to all our | brothers and to understand with them forgiveness has been given to us |
| Tx:31.84 | the saviors of the world, or would remain in hell and hold your | brothers there. |
| Tx:31.93 | in you unveil his eyes and let him look upon the Christ in him. My | brothers in salvation, do not fail to hear my voice and listen to my |
| Tx:31.94 | thorny roads we traveled on before the Christ appeared. Hear me, my | brothers, hear and join with me. God has ordained I cannot call in |
| Tx:31.95 | I thank You, Father, for these holy ones who are my | brothers as they are Your Sons. My faith in them is Yours. I am as |
| Tx:31.96 | can You fail in what is but Your Will? I give You thanks for what my | brothers are. And as each one elects to join with me, the song of |
| W1:57.6 | of God's. I am very holy. As I share the peace of the world with my | brothers, I begin to understand that this peace comes from deep |
| W1:73.2 | to traffic in grievances and stand between your awareness and your | brothers' reality. Beholding them, you do not know your brothers nor |
| W1:73.2 | and your brothers' reality. Beholding them, you do not know your | brothers nor your Self. |
| W1:95.17 | will be. You are One Self, the holy Son of God, united with your | brothers in this Self, united with your Father in His Will. |
| W1:97.11 | you, reminding you that you are Spirit, one with Him and God, your | brothers and your Self. Listen for His assurance every time you speak |
| W1:105.7 | will start a little differently. Begin today by thinking of those | brothers who have been denied by you the peace and joy that are their |
| W1:106.5 | today. Today allow your Father's ancient pledge to you and all your | brothers to be kept. Hear Him today, and listen to the Word which |
| W1:109.9 | You rest within the peace of God today and call upon your | brothers from your rest, to draw them to their rest along with you. |
| W1:109.10 | them come from far across the world, and near as well—your distant | brothers and your closest friends—bid them all enter here and rest |
| W1:124.13 | Let me remember I am one with God, at one with all my | brothers and my Self, in everlasting holiness and peace. |
| W1:126.11 | aim which makes this day of special value to yourself and all your | brothers. Do not let your mind forget this goal for long, but tell |
| W1:127.10 | Now are they all made free along with us. Now are they all our | brothers in God's Love. |
| W1:132.19 | You need not realize that healing comes to many | brothers far across the world as well as to the ones you see near by |
| W1:134.14 | practicing becomes the footsteps lightening up the way for all our | brothers, who will follow us to the reality we share with them. |
| W1:135.21 | until the world is lighted up with joy. And gladly will our | brothers lay aside their cumbersome defenses which availed them |
| W1:137.17 | When I am healed, I am not healed alone. And I would bless my | brothers, for I would be healed with them as they are healed with me. |
| W1:139.9 | Fail not your | brothers, or you fail yourself. Look lovingly on them that they may |
| W1:139.12 | are all minds as one and in our memory is the recall how dear our | brothers are to us in truth, how much a part of us is every mind, how |
| W1:153.11 | It is the function of God's ministers to help their | brothers choose as they have done. God has elected all, but few have |
| W1:153.11 | For you will not see the light until you offer it to all your | brothers. As they take it from your hands, so will you recognize it |
| W1:153.21 | the love and strength and peace that shine from them to all their | brothers come from Him. These are His gifts to you. Defenselessness |
| W1:155.7 | All this steps back as truth comes forth in you to lead your | brothers from the ways of death and set them on the way to happiness. |
| W1:155.9 | to walk ahead of truth and let illusions be your guide. Your holy | brothers have been given you to follow in your footsteps as you walk |
| W1:155.11 | not lose our way. For as truth goes before us, so it goes before our | brothers who will follow us. |
| W1:155.13 | Son. Forget not He has placed His hand in yours and given you your | brothers in His trust that you are worthy of His trust in you. He |
| W1:155.13 | your pathway certain and your goal secure. You will not fail your | brothers nor your Self. |
| W1:161.4 | One brother is all | brothers. Every mind contains all minds, for every mind is one. Such |
| W1:164.6 | Brothers, this day is sacred to the world. Your vision, given you | |
| W1:170.14 | from You alone. We choose again and make our choice for all our | brothers, knowing they are one with us. We bring them Your salvation |
| W1:R5.10 | our time and effort to them. And together we will teach them to our | brothers. God would not have Heaven incomplete. It waits for you, as |
| W1:181.1 | Trusting your | brothers is essential to establishing and holding up your faith in |
| W1:181.7 | It is not this that I would look upon. I trust my | brothers, who are one with me. |
| W1:183.1 | gives his son his name, and thus identifies the son with him. His | brothers share his name, and thus are they united in a bond to which |
| W1:185.13 | He with you. And you will also know you share one will with all your | brothers, whose intent is yours. |
| W1:190.6 | My holy | brothers, think of this awhile—the world you see does nothing. It |
| W1:191.12 | the suffering there. Is not your heart willing to bring your weary | brothers rest? |
| W1:195.7 | Then let our | brothers lean their tired heads against our shoulders as they rest a |
| W1:199.8 | practice well the thought the Holy Spirit gives you for today. Your | brothers stand released with you in it; the world is blessed along |
| W1:200.1 | [181] I trust my | brothers, who are one with me. No one but is my brother. I am blessed |
| W2:247.2 | So would I look on everyone today. My | brothers are Your Sons. Your Fatherhood created them and gave them |
| W2:260.1 | again before Christ's vision, through which I would look upon my | brothers and myself today. |
| W2:263.2 | pass them by in innocence and walk together to our Father's house as | brothers and the holy Sons of God. |
| W2:264.2 | My | brothers, join with me in this today. This is salvation's prayer. |
| W2:276.2 | Your Word is mine. And it is this that I would speak to all my | brothers, who are given me to cherish as my own, as I am loved and |
| W2:315.2 | gifts that come to me today and every day from every Son of God. My | brothers are unlimited in all their gifts to me. Now may I offer them |
| W2:316.1 | As every gift my | brothers give is mine, so every gift I give belongs to me. Each one |
| W2:317.1 | will I recognize salvation is already here, already given all my | brothers and already mine as well. |
| W2:324.1 | loving Voice will always call me back and guide my feet aright. My | brothers all can follow in the way I lead them. Yet I merely follow |
| W2:325.1 | home where he can rest a while before he journeys on and help his | brothers walk ahead with him and find the way to Heaven and to God. |
| W2:344.1 | give me gifts beyond the worth of anything on earth. Let my forgiven | brothers fill my store with Heaven's treasures, which alone are real. |
| W2:WAI.3 | And this, our gift, is therefore given us. We look on everyone as | brothers and perceive all things as kindly and as good. We do not |
| W2:WAI.4 | world. And from the oneness that we have attained we call to all our | brothers, asking them to share our peace and consummate our joy. |
| W2:FL.2 | that truth points out to us. And let us be the leaders of our many | brothers who are seeking for the way but find it not. |
| M:4.13 | is impossible. Judgment implies that you have been deceived in your | brothers. How then could you not have been deceived in yourself? |
| M:4.13 | for who could judge otherwise? Without judgment are all men | brothers, for who is there who stands apart? Judgment destroys |
| M:5.9 | merely give what has been given them. Very gently they call to their | brothers to turn away from death. Behold, you Son of God, what life |
| M:5.10 | truth in their minds reaches out to the truth in the minds of their | brothers, so that illusions are not reinforced. They are thus brought |
| M:19.3 | All concepts of your | brothers and yourself, all fears of future states, and all concern |

| Tx:2.15 | lies the real justification for his escape from fear. The escape is | brought about by his acceptance of the Atonement, which places him in |
| Tx:2.38 | they could not withstand the strength of the attack and had to be | brought back. Angels came, too, but their protection did not suffice |
| Tx:2.66 | therefore unamenable to independent learning. It is, however, easily | brought into alignment with a mind which has learned to look beyond |
| Tx:2.72 | the unimportant to a higher level than it warrants. You have thus | brought it under your will, where it does not belong. This means that |
| Tx:2.75 | is not. You should ask instead for help in the conditions which have | brought the fear about. These conditions always entail a separated |
| Tx:2.106 | understand it. Judgment is not an essential attribute of God. Man | brought judgment into being only because of the separation. After the |
| Tx:3.64 | his happier dreams. Nothing that you have refused to accept can be | brought into awareness. It does not follow that it is dangerous, but |
| Tx:4.64 | be used to attack or protect, to hurt or to heal. The ego should be | brought to your judgment and found wanting there. Without your own |
| Tx:4.65 | and only this must be. His Mind shone on you in your creation and | brought your mind into being. His Mind still shines on you and must |
| Tx:4.101 | Him, which would clearly be impossible, but He does want revelation | brought to others. This cannot be done with the actual revelation |
| Tx:6.45 | well, it would be glad, as the Holy Spirit will be glad when He has | brought you home and you no longer need His guidance. The ego does |
| Tx:8.5 | its purpose, are you satisfied with the changes your learning has | brought you? Dissatisfaction with learning outcomes must be a sign of |
| Tx:8.65 | Health is therefore nothing more than united purpose. If the body is | brought under the purpose of the mind, the body becomes whole, |
| Tx:10.51 | the ego's goal, which you have pursued quite diligently, has [only] | brought you fear, and it becomes difficult to maintain that fear is |
| Tx:12.55 | unlimited and spreads across this world in quiet joy. All those you | brought with you will shine on you, and you will shine on them in |
| Tx:12.55 | shine on you, and you will shine on them in gratitude because they | brought you here. Your light will join with theirs in power so |
| Tx:13.37 | is a sense of peace so deep that no dream in this world has ever | brought even a dim imagining of what it is. |
| Tx:14.17 | nothing is fearful. Attack will always yield to love if it is | brought to love, not hidden from it. There is no darkness that the |
| Tx:14.19 | The light of guiltlessness shines guilt away because, when they are | brought together, the truth of one must make the falsity of its |
| Tx:14.24 | knowledge or ignorance are yours, but not both. Opposites must be | brought together and not kept apart. For their separation is only in |
| Tx:14.24 | when knowledge dawns. Perception is the medium by which ignorance is | brought to knowledge. Yet the perception must be without deceit, for |
| Tx:14.26 | was not a point of view, but rather a certainty. Uncertainty | brought to certainty does not retain any conviction of reality. |
| Tx:14.27 | are both maintained. It has been recognized that if they were | brought together their joint acceptance would become impossible. But |
| Tx:14.32 | not power from your mind, but let all that would hide your glory be | brought to the judgment of the Holy Spirit and there undone. Whom He |
| Tx:14.33 | and His Son. No altar stands to God without His Son. And nothing | brought there that is not equally worthy of both but will be replaced |
| Tx:14.35 | You may choose to lead yourselves astray, but you can only be | brought together by the Guide appointed for you. He will surely lead |
| Tx:14.36 | for truth. And truth will make this plain to you as you are | brought into the place where you must meet with truth. And there you |
| Tx:14.37 | for nothing can coexist beside it. Here your meager offerings are | brought together with the gift of God, and only what is worthy of the |
| Tx:14.45 | calls forth. Its one response is healing, without regard for what is | brought to it. Those who have learned to offer only healing because |
| Tx:14.61 | a condition in which seeing becomes impossible. You who have not yet | brought all of the darkness you have taught yourselves unto the light |
| Tx:14.62 | is yours. But to accomplish this, all your dark lessons must be | brought willingly to truth and joyously laid down by hands open to |
| Tx:14.69 | And every fear or pain or trial you have has been undone. He has | brought all of them to light, having accepted them instead of you and |
| Tx:15.101 | your thoughts and the Thought that has been given you. When they are | brought together and perceived where they are, the choice between |
| Tx:15.103 | as our relationship with our Father, and as powerful. Pain will be | brought to us and disappear in our presence, and without pain there |
| Tx:16.17 | The power of holiness and the weakness of attack have both been | brought into awareness. And this has been accomplished in minds |
| Tx:16.17 | whenever you have listened to His interpretation, the results have | brought you joy. Would you prefer the results of your interpretation, |
| Tx:16.19 | to solve anything yourself and been successful. Is it not time you | brought these facts together and made sense of them? |
| Tx:17.6 | held outside the truth to Him who knows the truth and in Whom all is | brought to truth. [Salvation from separation will be complete or will |
| Tx:17.7 | you remember that made your heart seem to sing with joy has ever | brought you even a little part of the happiness this sight will bring |
| Tx:17.14 | bring with you to demonstrate he did what he did not. Because you | brought them, you will hear them. And you who kept them by your own |
| Tx:17.21 | step in His undoing is the separation more and more undone and union | brought closer. He is not at all confused by any “reasons” for |
| Tx:17.40 | when both are seen in relation to each other. The dark picture | brought to light is not perceived as fearful, but the fact that it is |
| Tx:17.40 | not perceived as fearful, but the fact that it is just a picture is | brought home at last. And what you see there, you will recognize as |
| Tx:17.60 | helps you meet it. It is quite noticeable that this approach has | brought you closer to the Holy Spirit's sorting out of truth and |
| Tx:17.66 | at all concerned with that. The error does not matter. Faithlessness | brought to faith will never interfere with truth. But faithlessness |
| Tx:18.4 | it once was one and still is what it was. That one error, which | brought truth to illusion, infinity to time, and life to death, was |
| Tx:18.6 | and upside-down arose from this? [It was inevitable.] For truth | brought to this could only remain within in quiet and take no part in |
| Tx:18.11 | love. Heaven has entered quietly, for all illusions have been gently | brought unto the truth in you and love has shined upon you, blessing |
| Tx:18.13 | you with the glowing purpose in which you join. The holy light that | brought you together must extend, as you accepted it. |
| Tx:18.30 | function of bringing light to darkness. The darkness in you has been | brought to light. Carry it back to darkness from the holy instant to |
| Tx:18.30 | light. Carry it back to darkness from the holy instant to which you | brought it. We are made whole in our desire to make whole. Let not |
| Tx:18.79 | but they will not depart as they had come, alone. The love they | brought with them will stay with them, as it will stay with you. And |
| Tx:18.85 | it. Be you not separate, for the One Who does surround it has | brought union to you, returning your little offering of darkness to |
| Tx:18.97 | from the world of shadows, and its unholy purpose has been safely | brought through the barriers of guilt, washed with forgiveness, and |
| Tx:19.1 | attained, for what is wholly dedicated to truth as its only goal is | brought to truth by faith. This faith encompasses everyone involved, |
| Tx:19.4 | Your faithlessness has thus opposed the Holy Spirit's purpose and | brought illusions centered on the body to stand between you. And the |
| Tx:19.7 | must be, are recognized as dedication to illusion and given up when | brought to truth and seen as totally irreconcilable with truth in any |
| Tx:19.22 | But if the mistake is given the status of truth, to what can it be | brought? The “holiness” of sin is kept in place by just this strange |
| Tx:19.22 | this strange device. As truth it is inviolate, and everything is | brought to it for judgment. As a mistake, it must be brought to |
| Tx:19.22 | everything is brought to it for judgment. As a mistake, it must be | brought to truth. It is impossible to have faith in sin, for sin is |
| Tx:19.36 | Here is the rest that waits for all after the journey. And it is | brought nearer to all by your relationship. |
| Tx:19.64 | paid very dearly for your illusions, and nothing you have paid for | brought you peace. Are you not glad that Heaven cannot be sacrificed, |
| Tx:19.97 | and learn it has no power to keep you from the truth. The Guide Who | brought you here remains with you, and when you raise your eyes, you |
| Tx:19.98 | in a holy instant has led you. And let us join in faith that He Who | brought us here together will offer you the innocence you need and |
| Tx:20.37 | Son gradually join in time, and with each joining is the end of time | brought nearer. Each miracle of joining is a mighty herald of |
| Tx:20.41 | while you look upon each other thus, the means and end have not been | brought in line. Why should it take so many holy instants to let this |
| Tx:20.58 | said much about discrepancies of means and end and how these must be | brought in line before your holy relationship can bring you only joy. |
| Tx:20.63 | are illusions and reality kept separated. Here are illusions never | brought to truth and always hidden from it. And here in darkness is |
| Tx:20.72 | upon with vision falls gently into place according to the laws | brought to it by His calm and certain sight. The end for everything |
| Tx:20.76 | for all the terrifying sights and screaming sounds the ego's purpose | brought to your horrified awareness. They step away from sin, |
| Tx:21.18 | exchange effected and maintained. Here is the world you do not want | brought to the one you do. And here the one you do is given you |
| Tx:22.14 | For what is time to what was always so? Think what that instant | brought—the recognition that the “something else” you thought was |
| Tx:22.27 | will has no exceptions, and what it wills is true. Every illusion | brought to its forgiveness is gently overlooked and disappears. For |
| Tx:23.15 | See how the conflict of illusions disappears when it is | brought to truth! For it seems real only as long as it is seen as war |
| Tx:23.19 | The “laws” of chaos can be | brought to light, though never understood. Chaotic laws are hardly |
| Tx:23.21 | Errors of any kind can be corrected because they are untrue. When | brought to truth instead of to each other, they merely disappear. No |
| Tx:24.4 | in secret, where the results of conflict are kept unknown and never | brought to reason to be considered sensible or not. And many |
| Tx:24.30 | They are not bodies; as One mind they wait for all illusions to be | brought to them and left behind. Salvation challenges not even death. |
| Tx:25.14 | on grounds that it will suddenly succeed and bring what it has never | brought before? |
| Tx:25.19 | will see the dark no more. The darkness touched him not, nor you who | brought him forth for you to look upon. His sinlessness but pictures |
| Tx:25.22 | have one purpose, since He gave the same to both of you. His Will is | brought together as you join in will that you be made complete by |
| Tx:25.36 | mistaken for a little while. How better could your own mistakes be | brought to truth than by your willingness to bring the light of |
| Tx:26.19 | it is apart from time. Here is the meeting-place where thoughts are | brought together—where conflicting values meet and all illusions |
| Tx:26.20 | This is because knowledge makes no attack upon perception. They are | brought together, and only one continues past the gate where Oneness |
| Tx:26.21 | of God believes can be destroyed. But what is truth to him must be | brought to the last comparison that he will ever make, the last |
| Tx:26.33 | one illusion still remains unanswered in your mind. Uncertainty was | brought to certainty so long ago that it is hard indeed to hold it to |
| Tx:26.47 | is denied, it goes. For it is gone as soon as the idea which | brought it has been healed and been replaced by sanity. Sickness and |
| Tx:26.48 | known. What is perceived takes many forms, but none has meaning. | Brought to truth, its senselessness is quite apparent. Kept apart |
| Tx:26.52 | lost His Mind, proclaiming sin has taken His reality from Him, and | brought His love at last to vengeance's heels. For such an insane |
| Tx:26.61 | The miracle is possible when cause and consequence are | brought together, not kept separate. The healing of effect without |
| Tx:26.68 | beyond your minds, you think of it as time. The nearer it is | brought to where it is, the more you think of it in terms of space. |
| Tx:26.73 | out can seem to take forever. The change of purpose the Holy Spirit | brought to your relationship has in it all effects that you will see. |

| Tx:6.5 | I have already told you that you can always | call on me to share my decision and thus make it stronger. I also |
| Tx:6.19 | way, you are using it as a weapon for assault rather than as the | call for peace for which it was intended. The Apostles often |
| Tx:6.22 | into the thought system toward which I am guiding you. I do not | call for martyrs but for teachers. No one is “punished” for sins, and |
| Tx:6.58 | need not be afraid of dreams. Then when bad dreams come, they will | call on the light themselves to dispel them. |
| Tx:6.60 | and those who lack wisdom are children. Yet He always answers their | call, and His dependability makes them more certain. Children do |
| Tx:6.60 | among dreams. He merely shines them away. His light is always the | call to awake, whatever you have been dreaming. Nothing lasting lies |
| Tx:6.95 | effort against it. Only this can cancel out the need for effort and | call upon the being which you both have and are. This recognition is |
| Tx:7.77 | born of the [love of Him for whom] He speaks. Every attack is a | call for His patience, since only His patience can translate attack |
| Tx:7.110 | and touch and remember are literally denying Heaven to yourselves. I | call upon you again to remember that I have chosen you to teach the |
| Tx:8.3 | be removed from your mind for you. Every response to the ego is a | call to war, and war does deprive you of peace. Yet in this war there |
| Tx:8.15 | runs easily and gladly through the Kingdom in answer to the | call of God. This is the natural response of every Son of God to the |
| Tx:8.74 | of witnesses should be suspect from the beginning. The ego does not | call upon witnesses who would disagree with its case, nor does the |
| Tx:8.94 | have. We have emphasized many times that the Holy Spirit will never | call upon you to sacrifice anything. But if you ask the sacrifice of |
| Tx:9.33 | and your learning is the result of what you taught them. What you | call upon in them, you call upon in yourself. And as you call upon it |
| Tx:9.33 | the result of what you taught them. What you call upon in them, you | call upon in yourself. And as you call upon it in them, it becomes |
| Tx:9.33 | What you call upon in them, you call upon in yourself. And as you | call upon it in them, it becomes real to you. God has but one Son, |
| Tx:9.91 | because it is the recognition that his brother can do it. It is a | call to the Holy Spirit in his mind, a call to Him which is |
| Tx:9.91 | brother can do it. It is a call to the Holy Spirit in his mind, a | call to Him which is strengthened by this joining. Because the |
| Tx:9.92 | is still as pure as the great light, because it is the remaining | call of creation. Put all your faith in it, and God Himself will |
| Tx:9.99 | Your Father has not denied you. He does not retaliate, but He does | call to you to return. When you think He has not answered your call, |
| Tx:9.99 | does call to you to return. When you think He has not answered your | call, you have not answered His. He calls to you from every part of |
| Tx:10.4 | true Father, Who hath need of you as I have. Will you not answer the | call of love with joy? |
| Tx:10.67 | You will awaken to your own | call, for the Call to awake is within you. If I live in you, you are |
| Tx:10.67 | You will awaken to your own call, for the | Call to awake is within you. If I live in you, you are awake. Yet you |
| Tx:11.6 | Whenever you fail to recognize a | call for help, you are refusing help. Would you maintain that you do |
| Tx:11.7 | a brother in your way, for you cannot help yourselves. But hear his | call for the help of God, and you will recognize your own need for |
| Tx:11.8 | to your awareness. For the sake of your need, then, hear every | call for help as what it is, so God can answer you. |
| Tx:11.10 | is the ultimate value to you in learning to perceive attack as a | call for love. We have learned surely that fear and attack are |
| Tx:11.10 | If only attack produces fear and if you see attack as the | call for help that it is, the unreality of fear must dawn upon you. |
| Tx:11.10 | that it is, the unreality of fear must dawn upon you. For fear is a | call for love in unconscious recognition of what has been denied. |
| Tx:11.16 | Perceive in sickness but another | call for love and offer your brother what he believes he cannot offer |
| Tx:11.16 | in sickness the appeal for health is to recognize in hatred the | call for love. And to give a brother what he really wants is to offer |
| Tx:11.16 | your Father wills you to know your brother as yourself. Answer his | call for love and yours is answered. Healing is the love of Christ |
| Tx:11.72 | you called upon them and they will come to you. I have heard your | call and I have answered it, but you will not look upon me nor hear |
| Tx:12.12 | obscures it, your love for your Father would impel you to answer His | call and leap into Heaven. You believe that attack is salvation to |
| Tx:12.13 | real weakness. For you could not control your joyous response to the | call of love if you heard it, and the whole world you think you |
| Tx:12.18 | Beneath all your grandiosity, which you hold so dear, is your real | call for help. For you call for love to your Father as your Father |
| Tx:12.18 | which you hold so dear, is your real call for help. For you | call for love to your Father as your Father calls you to Himself. In |
| Tx:12.37 | away from it. Yet fear attracts you, and believing it is love, you | call it to yourself. Your private world is filled with the figures of |
| Tx:12.51 | and where there is no sight of what you were, you look at Christ and | call His witnesses to shine on you because you called them forth. And |
| Tx:12.52 | only light. There is no darkness in him anywhere, for he is whole. | Call all your brothers to witness to his wholeness, as I am calling |
| Tx:12.53 | in remembrance of your Creator, for you will remember Him as you | call forth the witnesses to His creation. Those whom you heal bear |
| Tx:12.53 | your Creator, He will return your thanks in His clear answer to your | call. For it can never be that His Son called upon Him and remained |
| Tx:12.53 | never be that His Son called upon Him and remained unanswered. His | call to you is but your call to Him. And in Him you are answered by |
| Tx:12.53 | called upon Him and remained unanswered. His call to you is but your | call to Him. And in Him you are answered by His peace. |
| Tx:12.55 | give it, as it was given you. And as you give it, it shines forth to | call you from the world and follow it. For this light will attract |
| Tx:12.57 | slept, Christ's vision did not leave him. And so it is that he can | call unto himself the witnesses that teach him that he never slept. |
| Tx:12.62 | the power to touch you even here because you love it. And what you | call with love will come to you. Love always answers, being unable to |
| Tx:12.62 | love will come to you. Love always answers, being unable to deny a | call for help or not to hear the cries of pain that rise to it from |
| Tx:12.67 | real world is but your welcome of what always was. Therefore, the | call of joy is in it, and your glad response is your awakening to |
| Tx:13.15 | for punishment instead of love. Nothing can justify insanity, and to | call for punishment upon yourself must be insane. |
| Tx:13.44 | Son lose himself in dreams when God has placed within him the glad | call to waken and be glad? He cannot separate himself from what is in |
| Tx:13.44 | himself from what is in him. His sleep will not withstand the | call to wake. The mission of redemption will be fulfilled as surely |
| Tx:14.8 | keep it from his sight. Bring innocence to light in answer to the | call of the Atonement. Never allow purity to remain hidden, but shine |
| Tx:14.28 | of them, according to His purpose, merely changes them into a | call for what you have attacked with them. |
| Tx:14.51 | The miracle offers exactly the same response to every | call for help. It does not judge the call. It merely recognizes what |
| Tx:14.51 | the same response to every call for help. It does not judge the | call. It merely recognizes what it is and answers accordingly. It |
| Tx:14.51 | what it is and answers accordingly. It does not consider which | call is louder or greater or more important. You may wonder how you |
| Tx:14.51 | limitless. And being always maximal, it offers everything to every | call from anyone. There is no order of difficulty here. A call for |
| Tx:14.51 | to every call from anyone. There is no order of difficulty here. A | call for help is given help. |
| Tx:14.52 | one division into two categories—one of love and the other the | call for love. You cannot safely make this division, for you are much |
| Tx:14.70 | has made you free of what you made. You can deny Him, but you cannot | call on Him in vain. He always gives what He has made in place of |
| Tx:14.73 | have invited Him to do so by abandoning the ego on behalf of Him. | Call not upon the ego for anything. It is only this that you need do. |
| Tx:15.34 | Call forth in everyone only the remembrance of God and of the Heaven | |
| Tx:15.34 | help your brother be, there will you think you are. Hear not his | call for hell and littleness, but only his call for Heaven and |
| Tx:15.34 | you are. Hear not his call for hell and littleness, but only his | call for Heaven and greatness. Forget not that his call is yours, and |
| Tx:15.34 | but only his call for Heaven and greatness. Forget not that his | call is yours, and answer him with me. God's power is forever on the |
| Tx:15.37 | would join with me, by your decision to join in any plan but His. I | call you to fulfill your holy part in the plan that He has given to |
| Tx:15.39 | the measure of the time in which the holy instant will be yours. I | call to you to make the holy instant yours at once, for the release |
| Tx:15.59 | difficult to believe that, when another calls on God for love, your | call remains as strong. Nor do you think that, by God's answer to |
| Tx:16.40 | seems to be. Love calls, but hate would have you stay. Hear not the | call of hate, and see no fantasies[, for your completion lies in |
| Tx:16.40 | for your completion lies in truth and nowhere else]. See in the | call of hate and in every fantasy that rises to delay you but the |
| Tx:16.40 | call of hate and in every fantasy that rises to delay you but the | call for help which rises ceaselessly from you to your Creator. Would |
| Tx:16.41 | and then together we go straight to God in joyous answer to His | call for His completion. |
| Tx:16.42 | from time into eternity. Waken from time and answer fearlessly the | call of Him Who gave eternity to you in your creation. On this side |
| Tx:16.69 | for your release, His perfect willingness is given you. | Call upon Him, for Heaven is at His call. And let Him call on Heaven |
| Tx:16.69 | willingness is given you. Call upon Him, for Heaven is at His | call. And let Him call on Heaven for you. |
| Tx:16.69 | is given you. Call upon Him, for Heaven is at His call. And let Him | call on Heaven for you. |
| Tx:17.29 | aim of occupying your minds so completely that you will not hear the | call of truth. In a sense the special relationship was the ego's |
| Tx:17.59 | is whether or not the ego likes it—is it acceptable, or does it | call for vengeance? The absence of a criterion for outcome set in |
| Tx:17.67 | grow to meet the goal that has been set. The goal's reality will | call this forth, for you will see that peace and faith will not come |
| Tx:17.69 | so must its faith go everywhere with it. The goal's reality will | call forth and accomplish every miracle needed for its fulfillment. |
| Tx:17.72 | or you are faithless to your own relationship. Your faith will | call the others to share your purpose, as this same purpose called |
| Tx:17.73 | You | call for faith because of Him Who walks with you in every situation. |
| Tx:17.73 | goal are set apart from loneliness because the truth has come. Its | call for faith is strong. Use not your faithlessness against it, for |
| Tx:17.74 | withheld and left unused, that faith might answer to the | call of truth. The holy instant is the shining example, the clear and |
| Tx:17.75 | is asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it enter, and it will | call forth and secure for you the faith you need for peace. But rise |
| Tx:17.77 | To you who have acknowledged the | call of your Redeemer, the strain of not responding to His call seems |
| Tx:17.77 | the call of your Redeemer, the strain of not responding to His | call seems to be greater than before. This is not so. Before, the |
| Tx:17.79 | that could hold you back and keep you separate from Him Whose | call you answered. |
| Tx:18.6 | take no part in all the mad projection by which this world was made. | Call it not sin but madness, for such it was, and so it still |
| Tx:18.12 | Whom God has called should hear no substitutes. Their | call is but an echo of the original error which shattered Heaven. And |
| Tx:18.58 | on you whom He encompasses? Everyone has experienced what he would | call a sense of being transported beyond himself. This feeling of |
| Tx:18.62 | joined it where it is and where it led you in answer to its gentle | call to be at peace. |
| Tx:18.78 | you have so little! Should it not, then, be there that you would | call on love to enter? Look at the desert, dry and unproductive, |
| Tx:19.28 | Mistakes are for correction, and they | call for nothing else. What calls for punishment must call for |
| Tx:19.28 | and they call for nothing else. What calls for punishment must | call for nothing. Every mistake must be a call for love. What, then, |
| Tx:19.28 | calls for punishment must call for nothing. Every mistake must be a | call for love. What, then, is sin? What could it be but a mistake you |
| Tx:19.28 | is sin? What could it be but a mistake you would keep hidden—a | call for help that you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In |
| Tx:19.38 | You will not wait to give him this, for you will | call to him and he will answer you, recognizing in your call the Call |
| Tx:19.38 | for you will call to him and he will answer you, recognizing in your | call the Call of God. And you will draw him in and give him rest, as |
| Tx:19.38 | call to him and he will answer you, recognizing in your call the | Call of God. And you will draw him in and give him rest, as it was |
| Tx:19.40 | you keep it. You are the center from which it radiates outward to | call the others in. You are its home, its tranquil dwelling-place |
| Tx:19.44 | you answered. For from you who answered, He Who answered you would | call. His home is in your holy relationship. Do not attempt to stand |
| Tx:19.79 | leaves not its source. And death is the result of the thought we | call the ego as surely as life is the result of the Thought of God. |
| Tx:19.84 | Those who fear death see not how often and how loudly they | call to it and bid it come to save them from communication. For death |
| Tx:19.92 | out and unremembered. Here is your promise never to allow union to | call you out of separation; the great amnesia in which the memory of |
| Tx:20.38 | speaks in time of what is far beyond it. Two voices raised together | call to the hearts of everyone and let them beat as one. And in that |
| Tx:20.71 | unto the helpless? Is the pitifully little the perfect choice to | call upon for strength? Judgment will seem to make your savior weak. |
| Tx:21.59 | correction. Reason will also tell you when you think you sin, you | call for help. Yet if you will not accept the help you call for, you |
| Tx:21.59 | you sin, you call for help. Yet if you will not accept the help you | call for, you will not believe that it is yours to give. And so you |
| Tx:23.22 | principle, closely related to the first, is the demand that errors | call for punishment and not correction. For the destruction of the |
| Tx:24.6 | make them special is their enemy. Yet they protect its enmity and | call it “friend.” On its behalf they fight against the universe, for |
| Tx:24.15 | You strain your ears to hear its soundless voice, and yet the | Call of God Himself is soundless to you. |
| Tx:24.32 | peace and joy stand there beside the bier on which they sleep and | call them to come forth and waken from their dream of death. Yet they |
| Tx:24.32 | hear nothing. They are lost in dreams of specialness. They hate the | call that would awaken them, and they curse God because He did not |
| Tx:25.1 | that He may be made manifest to those who know Him not, that He may | call to them to come to Him and see Him where they thought their |
| Tx:25.39 | there is no sin in him for you to see. Nor do you hear his plaintive | call, unchanged in content in whatever form the call is made, that |
| Tx:25.39 | hear his plaintive call, unchanged in content in whatever form the | call is made, that you unite with him and join with him in innocence |
| Tx:25.39 | and peace. And yet beneath the ego's senseless shrieks, such is the | call that God has given him that you might hear in him His Call to |
| Tx:25.39 | is the call that God has given him that you might hear in him His | Call to you and answer by returning unto God what is His own. |
| Tx:25.73 | and could not see his worth at all. What honest witnesses could they | call forth to speak on his behalf? And who would come to plead for |
| Tx:25.75 | that He could not doubt His innocence. Your special function is a | call to Him that He may smile on you whose sinlessness He shares. His |
| Tx:26.15 | you could not will he suffer loss. The miracle of justice you | call forth will rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the Holy |
| Tx:26.54 | It is the wish that you be joined with him and not apart. We | call it “wish” because it still conceives of other choices and has |
| Tx:26.67 | Your ancient name belongs to everyone, as theirs to you. | Call on your brother's name and God will answer, for on Him you call. |
| Tx:26.67 | you. Call on your brother's name and God will answer, for on Him you | call. Could He refuse to answer when He has already answered all who |
| Tx:26.67 | call. Could He refuse to answer when He has already answered all who | call on Him? A miracle can make no change at all. But it can make |
| Tx:26.67 | —the Son of God allowed to be himself and all creation freed to | call upon the Name of God as one. |
| Tx:26.77 | brother, that you may awake in him the Voice that answers to your | call! And think how holy he must be when in him sleeps your own |
| Tx:27.18 | And hopelessness and death must disappear before the ancient clarion | call of life. This call has power far beyond the weak and miserable |
| Tx:27.18 | death must disappear before the ancient clarion call of life. This | call has power far beyond the weak and miserable cry of death and |
| Tx:27.49 | from you who let yourself be healed that it might live. It will | call forth its witnesses to show the face of Christ to you who |
| Tx:27.55 | sound. Except for this, the witnesses of sin are all alike. | Call pleasure pain, and it will hurt. Call pain a pleasure, and the |
| Tx:27.55 | of sin are all alike. Call pleasure pain, and it will hurt. | Call pain a pleasure, and the pain behind the pleasure will be felt |
| Tx:27.55 | which is foremost makes no difference. Sin's witnesses hear but the | call of death. |
| Tx:27.56 | not know. It tells you but the names you gave it to use when you | call forth the witnesses to its reality. You cannot choose among them |
| Tx:27.56 | if it is truth he represents. And otherwise he lies, if you should | call him by the holy Name of God Himself. |
| Tx:27.59 | pleasure, and the throes of death itself are but a single sound—a | call for healing and a plaintive cry for help within a world of |
| Tx:27.60 | The laws which | call them different are dissolved and shown as powerless. The purpose |
| Tx:27.78 | they may protect it, and collect more senseless things that it can | call its own. It looks about for special bodies which can share its |
| Tx:28.24 | the dream, and while it lasts, will wakening be feared. Nor will the | call to wakening be heard, because it seems to be the call to fear. |
| Tx:28.24 | Nor will the call to wakening be heard, because it seems to be the | call to fear. |
| Tx:28.41 | do your part, he will do his, for he will join you where you stand. | Call not to him to meet you in the gap between you, or you must |
| Tx:28.57 | The body represents the gap between the little bit of mind you | call your own and all the rest of what is really yours. You hate it, |
| Tx:28.61 | yourself your wholeness and your health, the Source of help, the | Call to healing, and the Call to heal? Your savior waits for healing, |
| Tx:28.61 | and your health, the Source of help, the Call to healing, and the | Call to heal? Your savior waits for healing, and the world waits with |
| Tx:30.33 | born. God is no enemy to you. He asks no more than that He hear you | call Him “Friend.” |
| Tx:31.5 | lessons in forgiveness have a power mightier than yours because they | call from God and from your Self to you. |
| Tx:31.8 | appeal to be your friend and let it join with you. And never does a | call remain unheard, misunderstood, nor left unanswered in the |
| Tx:31.8 | nor left unanswered in the selfsame tongue in which the | call was made. And you will understand it was this call that everyone |
| Tx:31.8 | in which the call was made. And you will understand it was this | call that everyone and everything within the world has always made, |
| Tx:31.8 | now you see you were mistaken. You had been deceived by forms the | call was hidden in. And so you did not hear it and had lost a friend |
| Tx:31.9 | the universal will that it be whole and that you do not leave its | call unheard. Without your answer is it left to die, as it is saved |
| Tx:31.9 | is saved from death when you have heard its calling as the ancient | call to life and understood that it is but your own. The Christ in |
| Tx:31.10 | upon its father as itself. How wrong are you who fail to hear the | call that echoes past each seeming call to death, that sings behind |
| Tx:31.10 | are you who fail to hear the call that echoes past each seeming | call to death, that sings behind each murderous attack and pleads |
| Tx:31.10 | do not understand Who calls to you beyond each form of hate, each | call to war. Yet you will recognize Him as you give Him answer in the |
| Tx:31.11 | if you believe you want disaster and disunity and pain. Hear not the | call for this within yourself. But listen, rather, to the deeper call |
| Tx:31.11 | the call for this within yourself. But listen, rather, to the deeper | call beyond it that appeals for peace and joy. And all the world will |
| Tx:31.16 | Perhaps you | call it love. Perhaps you think that it is murder justified at last. |
| Tx:31.22 | in need of care. There will be no assault upon your wish to hear a | call that never has been made. Nothing will hurt you in this holy |
| Tx:31.23 | that you taught yourself about the sinfulness in you. Hear but his | call for mercy and release from all the fearful images he holds of |
| Tx:31.78 | innocence within and thus expect to see it everywhere. And so they | call it forth in everyone they look upon that he may be what they |
| Tx:31.94 | me, my brothers, hear and join with me. God has ordained I cannot | call in vain, and in His certainty I rest content. For you will hear, |
| W1:15.2 | This introductory idea to the process of image-making which you | call seeing will not have much meaning for you. You will begin to |
| W1:47.3 | in every aspect of all situations, telling you exactly what to do to | call upon His strength and His protection. There are no exceptions |
| W1:49.2 | where stillness and peace reign forever. Try to hear God's Voice | call to you lovingly, reminding you that your Creator has not |
| W1:51.5 | not mean anything because I am trying to think without God. What I | call “my” thoughts are not my real thoughts. My real thoughts are the |
| W1:52.3 | only the past. As I look about, I condemn the world I look upon. I | call this seeing. I hold the past against everyone and everything, |
| W1:54.4 | world I see. Yet that sharing was a sharing of nothing. I can also | call upon my real thoughts, which share everything with everybody. As |
| W1:54.4 | which share everything with everybody. As my thoughts of separation | call to the separation thoughts of others, so my real thoughts awaken |
| W1:59.3 | God. Christ's vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. Let me | call upon this gift today, so that this day may help me to understand |
| W1:60.5 | the day. There is not a moment in which God's Voice ceases to | call on my forgiveness to save me. There is not a moment in which His |
| W1:62.3 | Remember that in every attack you | call upon your own weakness, while every time you forgive you call |
| W1:62.3 | you call upon your own weakness, while every time you forgive you | call upon the strength of Christ in you. Do you not then begin to |
| W1:69.7 | up and carried ahead. Your little effort and small determination | call on the power of the universe to help you, and God Himself will |
| W1:73.2 | to maintain it, peoples it with figures that seem to attack you and | call for “righteous” judgment. They become the middlemen the ego |
| W1:76.4 | It is insanity that thinks these things. You | call them laws and put them under different names in a long catalogue |
| W1:78.5 | even hate; someone you think you love who angers you; someone you | call a friend, but whom you see as difficult at times or hard to |
| W1:95.20 | own acknowledgment you are One Self, united with your Father, is a | call to all the world to be at one with you. To everyone you meet |
| W1:98.4 | will make it stronger still. While those as yet unborn will hear the | call we heard and answer it, when they have come to make their choice |
| W1:105.11 | give Him more. At least remember hourly to say the words which | call on Him to give you what He wills to give and wills you to |
| W1:106.1 | If you will lay aside the ego's voice, however loudly it may seem to | call; if you will not accept its petty gifts which give you nothing |
| W1:109.4 | Yours is the rest of truth. Appearances cannot intrude on you. You | call to all to join you in your rest, and they will hear and come to |
| W1:109.9 | You rest within the peace of God today and | call upon your brothers from your rest, to draw them to their rest |
| W1:121.12 | this changed perception for a while, and turn your mind to one you | call a friend. Try to transfer the light you learned to see around |
| W1:127.8 | Call to your Father, certain that His Voice will answer. He Himself | |
| W1:135.2 | inherent weakness, a belief that there is danger which has power to | call on you to make appropriate defense. |
| W1:153.20 | We | call upon His strength each time we feel the threat of our defenses |
| W1:155.6 | illusion, for the road leads past illusion now, while on the way you | call to them that they may follow you. |
| W1:155.8 | Such is salvation's | call, and nothing more. It asks that you accept the truth, and let it |
| W1:160.6 | no stranger in and took no alien thought to be Itself. And It will | call Its own unto Itself, in recognition of what is Its own. |
| W1:161.11 | you will not be willing to accept the witnesses your body's eyes | call forth. What you will see will sing to you of ancient melodies |
| W1:162.2 | that sounds around the world. The dead awake in answer to its | call. And those who live and hear this sound will never look on death. |
| W1:164.2 | beyond the world increasingly is more and more distinct—an ancient | call to which He gives an ancient answer. You will recognize them |
| W1:164.2 | recognize them both. For they are but your answer to your Father's | call to you. Christ answers for you, echoing your Self, using your |
| W1:164.3 | gives you His sight and hears for you and answers in your name the | call He hears. How quiet is the time you give to spend with Him |
| W1:167.2 | this world there appears to be a state that is life's opposite. You | call it death. Yet we have learned that the idea of death takes many |

| W1:170.8 | those who see in him their safety have no guardian, no strength to | call upon in danger, and no mighty warrior to fight for them. |
| W1:170.12 | look for the last time upon this bit of carven stone you made and | call it god no longer. You have reached this place before, but you |
| W1:170.13 | attributes, given by your Creator, are restored to you at last. The | Call of God is heard and answered. Now has fear made way for love, as |
| W1:R5.3 | Your sure remembering. We wander off, but You will not forget to | call us back. Quicken our footsteps now, that we may walk more |
| W1:R5.11 | my hands, through which I save the world. The Self from Which I | call to you is but your own. To Him we go together. Take your |
| W1:181.5 | and turn our eyes upon our own mistakes, which we will magnify and | call our “sins.” |
| W1:182.12 | is your heart's desire. This is the Voice you hear, and this the | Call which cannot be denied. The holy Child remains with you. His |
| W1:183.1 | God's Name is holy, but no holier than yours. To | call upon His Name is but to call upon your own. A father gives his |
| W1:183.1 | is holy, but no holier than yours. To call upon His Name is but to | call upon your own. A father gives his son his name, and thus |
| W1:183.5 | Repeat the Name of God and | call upon your Self, Whose Name is His. Repeat His Name and all the |
| W1:183.5 | nameless things on earth slip into right perspective. Those who | call upon the Name of God cannot mistake the nameless for the Name, |
| W1:183.7 | of everything that we desire to see; of everything that we would | call our own. |
| W1:183.8 | it Himself. Think not He hears the little prayers of those who | call on Him with names of idols cherished by the world. They cannot |
| W1:184.8 | But what is true in earth and Heaven is beyond your naming. When you | call upon a brother, it is to his body that you make appeal. His true |
| W1:184.8 | what you believe he really is. His body makes response to what you | call him, for his mind consents to take the name you give him as his |
| W1:184.15 | living things and You Who are their One Creator. What we made and | call by many different names is but a shadow we have tried to cast |
| W1:185.14 | we seek today, uniting our desires with the need of every heart, the | call of every mind, the hope that lies beyond despair, the love |
| W1:186.3 | grounds that modesty is outraged. It is pride that would deny the | call of God Himself. |
| W1:186.9 | Is this the Son of God? Could He create such instability and | call it Son? He Who is changeless shares His attributes with His |
| W1:188.8 | We have betrayed them, ordering that they depart from us. But now we | call them back and wash them clean of strange desires and disordered |
| W1:194.8 | Place, then, your future in the hands of God. For thus you | call the memory of Him to come again, replacing all your thoughts of |
| W1:196.11 | which salvation comes. For fear of God has disappeared. And you can | call on Him to save you from illusions in His Love, calling Him |
| W1:199.5 | none which will not gain in added gifts to you as well. We sound the | call of freedom round the world with this idea. And would you be |
| W1:R6.11 | turn to Him. He will not fail to be available to you each time you | call to Him to help you. Let us offer Him the whole review we now |
| W1:202.1 | where I do not belong, when God Himself has given me His Voice to | call me home? I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W1:203.1 | [183] I | call upon God's Name and on my own. The Name of God is my deliverance |
| W2:I.10 | in this final section we will come to understand that we need only | call to God and all temptations disappear. Instead of words, we need |
| W2:I.10 | of words, we need but feel His Love. Instead of prayer, we need but | call His Name. Instead of judging, we need but be still and let all |
| W2:221.1 | Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will hear my | call and answer me. |
| W2:221.2 | joined. We wait with one intent—to hear our Father's answer to our | call, to let our thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear Him |
| W2:230.2 | Mind is shining there unchanged. I am as You created me. I need but | call on You to find the peace You gave. It is Your will that gave it |
| W2:WS.5 | it is here salvation was received. The song of our rejoicing is the | call to all the world that freedom is returned, that time is almost |
| W2:232.1 | that You have remained with me and always will be there to hear my | call to You and answer me. As evening comes, let all my thoughts be |
| W2:237.1 | aware it ends the bitter dream of death, aware it is my Father's | call to me. |
| W2:WIW.4 | to lead away from truth, it can be redirected. Sounds become the | call of God. And all perception can be given a new purpose by the One |
| W2:244.1 | is safe wherever he may be, for You are there with him. He need but | call upon Your Name, and he will recollect his safety and Your Love, |
| W2:272.2 | Today we pass illusions by. And if we hear temptation | call to us to stay and linger in a dream, we turn aside and ask |
| W2:WIHS.5 | Accept your Father's gift. It is a | call from Love to Love that it be but itself. The Holy Spirit is His |
| W2:283.1 | Father, I made an image of myself, and it is this I | call the Son of God. Yet is creation as it always was, for Your |
| W2:WILJ.4 | as merciful as every step in His appointed plan to bless His Son and | call him to return to the eternal peace He shares with him. Be not |
| W2:324.1 | to wander off a while and then return. Your loving Voice will always | call me back and guide my feet aright. My brothers all can follow in |
| W2:327.1 | basis of an unsupported faith. For God has promised He will hear my | call and answer me Himself. Let me but learn from my experience that |
| W2:327.1 | that He has not abandoned me and loves me still, awaiting but my | call to give me all the help I need to come to Him. |
| W2:336.1 | the hidden altar to the truth. Its lilies shine into the mind and | call it to return and look within, to find what it has vainly sought |
| W2:347.1 | will, but He is sure it is Your own. And He will speak for me, and | call Your miracle to come to me. |
| W2:WAI.4 | as we bless the world. And from the oneness that we have attained we | call to all our brothers, asking them to share our peace and |
| W2:356.1 | Father, You promised You would never fail to answer any | call Your Son might make to You. It does not matter where he is, what |
| W2:356.1 | cannot suffer pain. Your Name gives answer to Your Son because to | call Your Name is but to call his own. |

| M:1.3 | manner. It does not matter who the teacher was before he heard the | Call. He has become a savior by his answering. He has seen someone |

| Tx:18.81 | you tried to hide from Heaven straight into Heaven. No part of love | calls on the whole in vain. No Son of God remains outside His |
| Tx:18.97 | set shining and firmly rooted in the world of light. From there, it | calls to you to follow the course it took, lifted high above the |

| Tx:19.27 | This is not really a change in your perception, for it is sin that | calls for punishment, not error. The Holy Spirit cannot punish sin. |

| Tx:22.14 | to show you where your Self must be. It is denial of illusions that | calls on truth, for to deny illusions is to recognize that fear is |
| Tx:24.6 | is nothing in the universe unlike itself. But what is different | calls for judgment, and this must come from someone “better,” someone |
| Tx:24.26 | for he holds one error to himself as lovely still. And so he | calls it “unforgivable” and makes it sin. How can he then give his |
| Tx:24.33 | damnation? And do you will that this be done unto your savior? God | calls to you from him to join His Will to save you both from hell. |
| Tx:24.62 | Nothing it needs does he deny to what he loves. And while it | calls to him, he hears no other Voice. No effort is too great, no |

| Tx:26.37 | a change in where he really is? The unforgiven is a voice that | calls out from a past forever more gone by. And everything which |
| Tx:26.62 | what is the same is different, you but deceive yourself. What God | calls one will be forever one, not separate. His Kingdom is united— |
| Tx:26.63 | The miracle but | calls your ancient name, which you will recognize because the truth |

| Tx:2.59 | that it is the highest level of communication of which he is | capable now. The whole aim of the miracle is to raise the level of |
| Tx:2.66 | to the very learning it should facilitate. Only the mind is | capable of illumination. The Soul is already illuminated, and the |

| Tx:2.70 | Most of the loftier concepts of which man is | capable now are time-dependent. Charity is really a weaker reflection |
| Tx:3.12 | and ask, “How could this be?” Is it likely that God Himself would be | capable of the kind of thinking which His own words have clearly |
| Tx:3.23 | This is not really open to question at all. The body is not | capable of understanding, and only the mind can perceive anything. A |

| Tx:3.65 | You are not really capable of being tired, but you are very | capable of wearying yourselves. The strain of constant judgment is |
| Tx:3.75 | that any interpretation which sees either God or His creations as | capable of destroying their own purpose is in error. |
| Tx:4.28 | there is another way is the loftiest idea of which ego thinking is | capable. That is because it contains a hint of recognition that the |
| Tx:4.30 | principle” since Freud thought of the ego as very weak and deprived, | capable of functioning only as a thing in need. |
| Tx:4.79 | Psychologists are in a good position to realize that the ego is | capable of making and accepting as real some very distorted |

| Tx:7.66 | you do, you are believing that it can be understood and is therefore | capable of being appreciated and loved. That would justify it, and it |
| Tx:7.71 | it operates in this world. Yet denial is a defense, and so it is as | capable of being used positively as it is of being used |
| Tx:8.71 | possession. In this perceived constellation, the body is regarded as | capable of shifting its control from one to the other, making the |

| Tx:9.101 | into your own mind because of the power He gave it. Your mind is | capable of creating worlds, but it can also deny what it creates |
| Tx:10.13 | you of what you want. Would God, who wants only your will, be | capable of this? Your will is His Life, which He has given to you. |

| Tx:10.71 | only this will lead you to the real Heaven because it will make you | capable of understanding it. |
| Tx:10.81 | is its reality. Would the Holy Spirit, Who wills only to restore, be | capable of misinterpreting the question you must ask to learn His |
| Tx:11.6 | for both his loving thoughts and his appeals for help, for both are | capable of bringing love into your awareness if you perceive them |
| Tx:11.11 | by giving it. Fear and love are the only emotions of which you are | capable. One is false, for it was made out of denial, and denial |
| Tx:11.84 | is easily translated into knowledge, for only perception is | capable of error, and perception has never been. Being corrected, it |
| Tx:13.38 | is wholly shared. Perfect perception can merely show you what is | capable of being wholly shared. It can also show you the results of |

| Tx:19.22 | the ego wants; a world it rules, made up of bodies, mindless and | capable of complete corruption and decay. If this is a mistake, it |
| Tx:19.33 | beyond the hope of healing. For there would be a power beyond God's, | capable of making another will which could attack His Will and |

| Tx:21.52 | from your awareness. And nothing you have allowed to stay in it is | capable of reason. How can the segment of the mind devoid of reason |
| Tx:30.89 | and now you think it real again. Reality is thus reduced to form and | capable of change. Reality is changeless. It is this that makes it |

| Tx:5.90 | plan for your safety and joy better than He can? You need be neither | careful nor careless; you need merely cast your cares upon Him, |
| Tx:14.53 | with meaningless content. For their teacher is senseless, though | careful to conceal this fact behind a lot of words which sound |
| Tx:16.24 | you are but have not let what you are teach you. You have been very | careful to avoid the obvious and not to see the real cause and effect |

| Tx:19.53 | and the beautiful, the gentle and the kind. They will be as | careful to let no little act of charity, no tiny expression of |
| Tx:26.69 | every problem now. Thus do you think it safer to remain a little | careful and a little watchful of interests perceived as separate. |
| W1:136.21 | Yet this protection needs to be preserved by | careful watching. If you let your mind harbor attack thoughts, yield |

| Tx:10.29 | must be as pure as His if you would know what belongs to you. Guard | carefully His temple, for He Himself dwells there and abides in |

| Tx:21.1 | to change your mind about the world. Perception is a result, not a | cause. And that is why order of difficulty in miracles is |
| Tx:21.25 | When vision is denied, confusion of | cause and effect becomes inevitable. The purpose now becomes to keep |
| Tx:21.25 | becomes inevitable. The purpose now becomes to keep obscure the | cause of the effect and make effect appear to be a cause. This |
| Tx:21.25 | keep obscure the cause of the effect and make effect appear to be a | cause. This seeming independence of effect enables it to be regarded |
| Tx:21.25 | it to be regarded as standing by itself and capable of serving as a | cause of the events and feelings its maker thinks it causes. Long ago |
| Tx:21.25 | son to Him. This is the same desire. The Son is the effect, whose | Cause he would deny. And so he seems to be the cause, producing real |
| Tx:21.25 | is the effect, whose Cause he would deny. And so he seems to be the | cause, producing real effects. Nothing can have effects without a |
| Tx:21.25 | cause, producing real effects. Nothing can have effects without a | cause and to confuse the two is merely to fail to understand them |
| Tx:21.71 | or turn upon himself as to remember they thought they had a common | cause. |
| Tx:21.77 | But what you want to see must be your choice. This is a course in | cause and not effect. |
| Tx:24.41 | —in which you suffer not your condemnation. In dreams, effect and | cause are interchanged, for here the maker of the dream believes that |
| Tx:24.56 | blessing from himself nor you who see him truly. His mistakes can | cause delay, which it is given you to take from him that both may end |
| Tx:25.37 | the goal of sin. Attack and sin are bound as one illusion, each the | cause and aim and justifier of the other. Each is meaningless alone, |
| Tx:25.74 | justice is impossible. For love is fair and cannot chasten without | cause. What cause can be to warrant an attack upon the innocent? In |
| Tx:25.74 | impossible. For love is fair and cannot chasten without cause. What | cause can be to warrant an attack upon the innocent? In justice then |
| Tx:26.47 | replaced by sanity. Sickness and sin are seen as consequence and | cause in a relationship kept hidden from awareness that it may be |
| Tx:26.50 | be, for only there can its effects be utterly undone and without | cause. Perception's laws must be reversed, because they are reversals |
| Tx:26.60 | Cause and effect are one, not separate. God wills you learn what | |
| Tx:26.61 | The miracle is possible when | cause and consequence are brought together, not kept separate. The |
| Tx:26.61 | together, not kept separate. The healing of effect without the | cause can merely shift effects to other forms. And this is not |
| Tx:26.71 | joining is your dread. Who can feel desolation except now? A future | cause as yet has no effects. And therefore must it be that if you |
| Tx:26.71 | And therefore must it be that if you fear, there is a present | cause. And it is this that needs correction, not a future state. |
| Tx:26.72 | purpose has been given it as yet, and what will happen has as yet no | cause. Who can predict effects without a cause? And who could fear |
| Tx:26.72 | will happen has as yet no cause. Who can predict effects without a | cause? And who could fear effects unless he thought they had been |
| Tx:26.72 | and judged disastrous now? Belief in sin arouses fear and, like its | cause, is looking forward, looking back but overlooking what is here |
| Tx:26.72 | back but overlooking what is here and now. Yet only here and now its | cause must be if its effects already have been judged as fearful. And |
| Tx:26.74 | good appear in evil's form? And is it not deception if it does? Its | cause is here if it appears at all. Why are not its effects apparent |
| Tx:26.75 | Yet this illusion has a | cause which, though untrue, must be already in your mind. And this |
| Tx:26.76 | It has no meaning and is not your just reward. For you have | cause for freedom now. What profits freedom in a prisoner's form? Why |
| Tx:26.76 | and the “reasoning” which would maintain effects of present | cause must be delayed until a future time is merely a denial of the |
| Tx:26.76 | a future time is merely a denial of the fact that consequence and | cause must come as one. Look not to time but to the little space |
| Tx:26.86 | And this denies the fact that all are senseless—equally without a | cause or consequence and cannot have effects of any kind. Their |
| Tx:26.87 | the idea you are deprived by someone not yourself. Projection of the | cause of sacrifice is at the root of everything perceived to be |
| Tx:27.9 | sign of guilt whose consequences still are there to see, so that the | cause can never be denied. |
| Tx:27.10 | Your function is to [prove to] your brother that sin can have no | cause. How futile must it be to see yourself a picture of the proof |
| Tx:27.20 | can show him that his suffering is purposeless and wholly without | cause. Show him your healing, and he will consent no more to suffer. |
| Tx:27.31 | canceled out the thought it represents. And thus the picture has no | cause at all. Who can perceive effect without a cause? What can the |
| Tx:27.31 | the picture has no cause at all. Who can perceive effect without a | cause? What can the causeless be but nothingness? The picture of your |
| Tx:27.64 | it rests, by which it is maintained, is simply this: “You are the | cause of what I do. Your presence justifies my wrath, and you exist |
| Tx:27.64 | it seems as if there is no need to go beyond the obvious in terms of | cause. |
| Tx:27.66 | The means attest the purpose but are not themselves a | cause. Nor will the cause be changed by seeing it apart from its |
| Tx:27.66 | attest the purpose but are not themselves a cause. Nor will the | cause be changed by seeing it apart from its effects. The cause |
| Tx:27.66 | will the cause be changed by seeing it apart from its effects. The | cause produces the effects which then bear witness to the cause and |
| Tx:27.66 | The cause produces the effects which then bear witness to the | cause and not themselves. Look, then, beyond effects. It is not here |
| Tx:27.66 | and not themselves. Look, then, beyond effects. It is not here the | cause of suffering and sin must lie. And dwell not on the suffering |
| Tx:27.66 | not on the suffering and sin, for they are but reflections of their | cause. |
| Tx:27.67 | begun. And it is this the world bears witness to. Seek not another | cause nor look among the mighty legions of its witnesses for its |
| Tx:27.67 | sin all stand within one little space. And it is here you find the | cause of your perspective on the world. |
| Tx:27.68 | Once you were unaware of what the | cause of everything the world appeared to thrust upon you, uninvited |
| Tx:27.68 | as making them, and their reality does not depend on him. Whatever | cause they have is something quite apart from him, and what he sees |
| Tx:27.70 | the one alternative that you can choose, the other possibility of | cause if you be not the dreamer of your dreams. And this is what you |
| Tx:27.70 | dreamer of your dreams. And this is what you choose if you deny the | cause of suffering is in your mind. Be glad indeed it is, for thus |
| Tx:27.71 | could you doubt it while you lie asleep and dream in secret that its | cause is real? |
| Tx:27.72 | and the destroyer of [the] brother and the world alike. Here is the | cause of suffering, the space between your dreams and your reality. |
| Tx:27.72 | of ancient hate, the instant of disaster, all are here. Here is the | cause of unreality. And it is here that it will be undone. |
| Tx:27.73 | You are the dreamer of the world of dreams. No other | cause it has, nor ever will. Nothing more fearful than an idle dream |
| Tx:27.79 | it try to teach again, and still again, and yet once more that it is | cause and not effect. And you are its effect and cannot be its cause. |
| Tx:27.79 | it is cause and not effect. And you are its effect and cannot be its | cause. |
| Tx:27.81 | world has ever had? Is it your wish to let no dream appear to be the | cause of what it is you do? Then let us merely look upon the dream's |
| Tx:27.81 | beginning, for the part you see is but the second part, whose | cause lies in the first. No one asleep and dreaming in the world |
| Tx:27.82 | We can remember this if we but look directly at their | cause. And we will see the grounds for laughter, not a cause for |
| Tx:27.82 | at their cause. And we will see the grounds for laughter, not a | cause for fear. Let us return the dream he gave away unto the dreamer |
| Tx:27.83 | of circularity whose ending starts at its beginning, ending at its | cause. The world you see depicts exactly what you thought you did. |
| Tx:27.84 | to them. But once deluded into blaming them, you will not see the | cause of what they do because you want the guilt to rest on them. How |
| Tx:27.84 | your eyes behold its heavy consequences, but without their trifling | cause. Without the cause do its effects seem serious and sad indeed. |
| Tx:27.84 | heavy consequences, but without their trifling cause. Without the | cause do its effects seem serious and sad indeed. Yet they but |
| Tx:27.84 | seem serious and sad indeed. Yet they but follow. And it is their | cause which follows nothing and is but a jest. |
| Tx:27.85 | In gentle laughter does the Holy Spirit perceive the | cause and looks not to effects. How else could He correct your error, |
| Tx:27.85 | How else could He correct your error, who have overlooked the | cause entirely? He bids you bring each terrible effect to Him that |
| Tx:27.85 | terrible effect to Him that you may look together on its foolish | cause and laugh with Him a while. You judge effects, but He has |
| Tx:27.85 | laugh with Him a while. You judge effects, but He has judged their | cause. And by His judgment are effects removed. Perhaps you come in |
| Tx:27.86 | and of attacker, still is this the truth. Whatever seems to be the | cause of any pain and suffering you feel, this is still true. For you |
| Tx:27.87 | with this very simple truth. For this one answer takes away the | cause of every form of sorrow and of pain. The form affects His |
| Tx:27.87 | affects His answer not at all, for He would teach you but the single | cause of all of them, no matter what their form. And you will |
| Tx:27.89 | and He will teach you how each one is caused. None has a different | cause from all the rest, and all of them are easily undone by but a |
| Tx:28.1 | past is gone, and what has truly gone has no effects. Remembering a | cause can but produce illusions of its presence, not effects. |
| Tx:28.2 | guilt is over. In its passing went its consequences, left without a | cause. Why would you cling to it in memory if you did not desire its |
| Tx:28.5 | their effects appear to be increased by time, which took away their | cause. |
| Tx:28.6 | a consequence in which no change can be made possible because its | cause has gone. Yet change must have a cause that will endure or else |
| Tx:28.6 | be made possible because its cause has gone. Yet change must have a | cause that will endure or else it will not last. No change can be |
| Tx:28.6 | else it will not last. No change can be made in the present if its | cause is past. Only the past is held in memory as you make use of it, |
| Tx:28.7 | one? When ancient memories of hate appear, remember that their | cause is gone. And so you cannot understand what they are for. Let |
| Tx:28.7 | is gone. And so you cannot understand what they are for. Let not the | cause that you would give them now be what it was which made them |
| Tx:28.7 | what you would be pardoned from. And see instead the new effects of | cause accepted now, with consequences here. They will surprise you |
| Tx:28.7 | The ancient new ideas they bring will be the happy consequences of a | cause so ancient that it far exceeds the span of memory which your |
| Tx:28.8 | This is the | Cause the Holy Spirit has remembered for you, when you would forget. |
| Tx:28.8 | indeed seem new because you thought that you remembered not their | Cause. Yet was It never absent from your mind, for it was not your |
| Tx:28.9 | never was. It came from causelessness which you confused with | cause. It can deserve but laughter when you learn you have remembered |
| Tx:28.9 | causeless and could never be effects. The miracle reminds you of a | Cause forever present, perfectly untouched by time and interference— |
| Tx:28.10 | to be healed. In quietness, see in the miracle a lesson in allowing | Cause to have Its own effects and doing nothing that would interfere. |
| Tx:28.11 | minds to be. Born out of sharing, there can be no pause in time to | cause the miracle delay in hastening to all unquiet minds and |
| Tx:28.13 | it not. And what is now remembered is not fear, but rather is the | cause that fear was made to render unremembered and undone. The |
| Tx:28.14 | Now is the Son of God at last aware of present | Cause and Its benign effects. Now does he understand what he has made |
| Tx:28.14 | he never had a need for doing anything and never did. His | Cause is Its effects. There never was a cause beside It that could |
| Tx:28.14 | anything and never did. His Cause is Its effects. There never was a | cause beside It that could generate a different past or future. Its |
| Tx:28.16 | Without a | cause there can be no effects, and yet without effects there is no |
| Tx:28.16 | a cause there can be no effects, and yet without effects there is no | cause. The cause a cause is made by its effects; the Father is a |
| Tx:28.16 | can be no effects, and yet without effects there is no cause. The | cause a cause is made by its effects; the Father is a father by His |
| Tx:28.16 | no effects, and yet without effects there is no cause. The cause a | cause is made by its effects; the Father is a father by His Son. |
| Tx:28.16 | the Father is a father by His Son. Effects do not create their | cause, but they establish its causation. Thus, the Son gives |
| Tx:28.17 | it and where all healing is. Where then is healing? Only where its | cause is given its effects. For sickness is a meaningless attempt to |
| Tx:28.17 | attempt to give effects to causelessness and make it be a | cause. |
| Tx:28.18 | Always in sickness does the Son of God attempt to make himself his | cause and not allow himself to be his Father's Son. For this |
| Tx:28.18 | desire, he does not believe that he is Love's effect and must be | cause because of what he is. The cause of healing is the only Cause |
| Tx:28.18 | he is Love's effect and must be cause because of what he is. The | cause of healing is the only Cause of everything. It has but one |
| Tx:28.18 | be cause because of what he is. The cause of healing is the only | Cause of everything. It has but one effect. And in that recognition, |
| Tx:28.19 | It is but an effect which you have caused, and you would not be | cause of this effect. |
| Tx:28.21 | What else could be expected from a thing that has no | cause? Yet if it has no cause, it has no purpose. You may cause a |
| Tx:28.21 | could be expected from a thing that has no cause? Yet if it has no | cause, it has no purpose. You may cause a dream, but never will you |
| Tx:28.21 | has no cause? Yet if it has no cause, it has no purpose. You may | cause a dream, but never will you give it real effects. For that |
| Tx:28.21 | but never will you give it real effects. For that would change its | cause, and it is this you cannot do. The dreamer of a dream is not |
| Tx:28.21 | of himself as sick or well, depressed or happy, but without a stable | cause with guaranteed effects. |
| Tx:28.22 | hands. As victim, he is suffering from its effects but not their | cause. He authored not his own attack, and he is innocent of what he |
| Tx:28.22 | nothing but to show him that he has done nothing. What he fears is | cause without the consequences which would make it cause. And so it |
| Tx:28.22 | What he fears is cause without the consequences which would make it | cause. And so it never was. |
| Tx:28.23 | to prove the dreamer could not be the maker of the dream. Effect and | cause are first split off and then reversed, so that effect becomes a |
| Tx:28.23 | are first split off and then reversed, so that effect becomes a | cause; the cause, effect. |
| Tx:28.23 | split off and then reversed, so that effect becomes a cause; the | cause, effect. |
| Tx:28.24 | This final step is an effect of what has gone before, appearing as a | cause. The miracle is the first step in giving back to cause the |
| Tx:28.24 | as a cause. The miracle is the first step in giving back to | cause the function of causation, not effect. For this confusion has |
| Tx:28.26 | The miracle returns the | cause of fear to you who made it. But it also shows that, having no |
| Tx:28.26 | who made it. But it also shows that, having no effects, it is not | cause because the function of causation is to have effects. And where |
| Tx:28.26 | is to have effects. And where effects are gone, there is no | cause. Thus is the body healed by miracles because they show the mind |
| Tx:28.27 | the glad effects of taking back the consequence of sickness to its | cause. The body is released because the mind acknowledges “this is |
| Tx:28.29 | separate points of view. Uniting with a brother's mind prevents the | cause of sickness and perceived effects. Healing is the effect of |
| Tx:28.30 | him to his own dream by sharing it with him. He has not seen the | cause of sickness where it is, and you have overlooked the gap |
| Tx:28.31 | is a wish to keep apart and not to join. And thus it seems to give a | cause to sickness which is not its cause. The purpose of the gap is |
| Tx:28.31 | join. And thus it seems to give a cause to sickness which is not its | cause. The purpose of the gap is all the cause that sickness has. For |
| Tx:28.31 | sickness which is not its cause. The purpose of the gap is all the | cause that sickness has. For it was made to keep you separated in a |
| Tx:28.31 | made to keep you separated in a body which you see as if it were the | cause of pain. |
| Tx:28.32 | The | cause of pain is separation, not the body, which is only its effect. |
| Tx:28.35 | you, join your brother there. And sickness will be seen without a | cause. The dream of healing in forgiveness lies and gently shows you |
| Tx:28.41 | shares a dream must be the dream he shares because by sharing is a | cause produced. |
| Tx:28.43 | to be a sick and separated mind cannot remain without a witness or a | cause. And both are gone if someone wills to be united with him. He |
| Tx:29.5 | The body could not separate your minds unless you wanted it to be a | cause of separation and of distance seen between you. Thus do you |
| Tx:29.10 | offered you. Yet though you do not see them, they are there. Their | cause has been effected, and they must be present where their cause |
| Tx:29.10 | Their cause has been effected, and they must be present where their | cause has entered in. |
| Tx:29.11 | You have accepted healing's | Cause, and so it must be you are healed. And being healed, the power |
| Tx:29.11 | not a separate thing which happens suddenly, as an effect without a | cause. Nor is it in itself a cause. But where its cause is must it |
| Tx:29.11 | suddenly, as an effect without a cause. Nor is it in itself a | cause. But where its cause is must it be. Now is it caused, though |
| Tx:29.11 | effect without a cause. Nor is it in itself a cause. But where its | cause is must it be. Now is it caused, though not as yet perceived. |
| Tx:29.11 | Look inward now, and you will not behold a reason for regret but | cause indeed for glad rejoicing and for hope of peace. |
| Tx:30.31 | be it with a dream of judgment or the Voice for God. Decisions | cause results because they are not made in isolation. They are made |
| Tx:30.36 | What | cause have you for anger in a world which merely waits your blessing |
| Tx:30.58 | And idols are not wanted there, for guilt is understood as the sole | cause of pain in any form. No one is tempted by its vain appeal, for |
| W1:5.1 | you pain. Apply it specifically to whatever you believe is the | cause of your upset, using the description of the feeling in whatever |
| W1:5.2 | When using the idea for today for a specific perceived | cause of an upset in any form, use both the name of the form in which |
| W1:5.2 | use both the name of the form in which you see the upset and the | cause which you ascribe to it. For example: |
| W1:8.1 | projected outward. The mind's preoccupation with the past is the | cause of the total misconception about time from which your seeing |
| W1:13.8 | it may arouse. This is our first attempt at stating an explicit | cause and effect relationship of a kind which you are very |
| W1:17.1 | This idea is another step in the direction of identifying | cause and effect as it really operates. You see no neutral things |
| W1:17.1 | it is the way you think. If it were not so, perception would have no | cause and would itself be the cause of reality. In view of its highly |
| W1:17.1 | were not so, perception would have no cause and would itself be the | cause of reality. In view of its highly variable nature, this is |
| W1:19.1 | matter. Thinking and its results are really simultaneous, for | cause and effect are never separate. |
| W1:20.5 | and you will. What you desire, you will see. Such is the real law of | cause and effect as it operates in the world. |
| W1:23.2 | If the | cause of the world you see is attack thoughts, you must learn that it |
| W1:23.2 | in changing your thoughts about the world. Here you are changing the | cause. The effects will change automatically. |
| W1:23.4 | You cannot be saved from the world, but you can escape from its | cause. This is what salvation means, for where is the world you see |
| W1:23.4 | is what salvation means, for where is the world you see when its | cause is gone? Vision already holds a replacement for everything you |
| W1:23.5 | thought that you are not trapped in the world you see, because its | cause can be changed. This change requires, first, that the cause be |
| W1:23.5 | its cause can be changed. This change requires, first, that the | cause be identified and then let go, so that it can be replaced. The |
| W1:23.9 | practice periods. We are still at the stage of identifying the | cause of the world you see. When you finally realize that thoughts of |
| W1:23.9 | of being attacked are not different, you will be ready to let the | cause go. |
| W1:31.2 | world. You will escape from both together, for the inner is the | cause of the outer. |
| W1:32.1 | Today we are continuing to develop the theme of | cause and effect. You are not the victim of the world you see because |
| W1:37.9 | as you do so. It is essential to use the idea if anyone seems to | cause an adverse reaction in you. Offer him the blessing of your |
| W1:42.1 | powerful thoughts, both of major importance. It also sets forth a | cause and effect relationship which explains why you cannot fail in |
| W1:91.6 | Begin the longer practice periods with this statement of true | cause and effect relationships: |
| W1:101.5 | that you believe must come from sin will never happen, for it has no | cause. Accept Atonement with an open mind which cherishes no |
| W1:102.2 | still further. And to realize that pain is purposeless, without a | cause, and with no power to accomplish anything. It cannot purchase |
| W1:108.13 | Our very simple lesson for today will teach you much. Effect and | cause will be far better understood from this time on, and we will |
| W1:121.10 | thinking of someone you do not like, who seems to irritate you or to | cause regret in you if you should meet him; one you actively despise |
| W1:130.4 | has made them up. Yet love can have no enemy, and so they have no | cause, no being, and no consequence. They can be valued but remain |
| W1:139.13 | with all aspects of creation, we repeat our dedication to our | cause today each hour, as we lay aside all thoughts that would |
| W1:156.1 | that makes the thought of sin impossible. It promises there is no | cause for guilt, and being causeless it does not exist. It follows |
| W1:167.3 | your mind about yourself. It is the reason you can heal. It is the | cause of healing. It is why you cannot die. Its truth established you |
| W1:184.3 | is named is given meaning and will then be seen as meaningful, a | cause of true effects with consequence inherent in itself. |
| W1:190.4 | with weighty consequence. Who but a madman could conceive of them as | cause of anything? Their witness, pain, is mad as they and no more to |
| W1:190.5 | It is your thoughts alone that | cause you pain. Nothing external to your mind can hurt or injure you |
| W1:190.5 | external to your mind can hurt or injure you in any way. There is no | cause beyond yourself that can reach down and bring oppression. No |
| W1:190.7 | The world may seem to | cause you pain. And yet the world, as causeless, has no power to |
| W1:190.7 | to cause you pain. And yet the world, as causeless, has no power to | cause. As an effect, it cannot make effects. As an illusion it is |
| W1:194.7 | his future to the loving hands of God? What can he suffer? What can | cause him pain or bring experience of loss to him? What can he fear? |
| W1:195.1 | they. How pitiful and deprecating are such thoughts! For who has | cause for thanks while others have less cause, and who could suffer |
| W1:195.1 | such thoughts! For who has cause for thanks while others have less | cause, and who could suffer less because he sees another suffer more? |
| W1:195.1 | another suffer more? Your gratitude is due to Him alone Who made all | cause of sorrow disappear throughout the world. |
| W2:WIW.2 | be apart from Him. Here was perception born, for knowledge could not | cause such insane thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely. |
| W2:284.1 | properly perceived. Pain is impossible. There is no grief with any | cause at all. And suffering of any kind is nothing but a dream. Such |
| W2:301.2 | Those who look on it can only add their joy to it and bless it as a | cause of further joy in them. We wept because we did not understand. |
| W2:307.1 | Let me not try to make another will, for it is senseless and will | cause me pain. Your will alone can bring me happiness, and only Yours |
| W2:WILJ.2 | as totally forgiven, without sin and wholly purposeless. Without a | cause and now without a function in Christ's sight, it merely slips |
| W2:326.1 | home. I am forever Your Effect, and You forever and forever are my | Cause. As You created me, I have remained. Where You established me, |
| W2:326.1 | abide in me because it is Your will to have a Son so like his | Cause that Cause and Its Effect are indistinguishable. Let me know |
| W2:326.1 | in me because it is Your will to have a Son so like his Cause that | Cause and Its Effect are indistinguishable. Let me know that I am an |
| W2:331.1 | How foolish, Father, to believe Your Son could | cause himself to suffer! Could he make a plan for his damnation and |
| W2:348.1 | and I am not alone. Surrounding me is everlasting Love. I have no | cause for anything except the perfect peace and joy I share with You. |
| M:4.3 | is the result of learning. In fact, perception is learning, because | cause and effect are never separated. The teachers of God have trust |
| M:4.20 | of all things in time, no outcome already seen or yet to come can | cause them fear. |
| M:5.7 | confusion about creation. Does not this follow of necessity? Place | cause and effect in their true sequence in one respect, and the |
| M:5.7 | they are gone. And with them also go all the effects they seemed to | cause. Cause and effect but replicate creation. Seen in their proper |
| M:5.7 | gone. And with them also go all the effects they seemed to cause. | Cause and effect but replicate creation. Seen in their proper |
| M:10.6 | these things need not be. Not one is true. For he has given up their | cause, and they, which never were but the effects of his mistaken |
| M:12.2 | the Love of God. God can no longer be feared, for the mind sees no | cause for punishment. God's teachers appear to be many, for that is |
| M:17.5 | Anger in response to perceived magic thoughts is the basic | cause of fear. Consider what this reaction means, and its centrality |

| Tx:26.72 | a cause? And who could fear effects unless he thought they had been | caused and judged disastrous now? Belief in sin arouses fear and, |

| Tx:17.71 | Yet you are as innocent of what you were as he is. What never was is | causeless and is not there to interfere with truth. There is no cause |
| Tx:27.31 | cause at all. Who can perceive effect without a cause? What can the | causeless be but nothingness? The picture of your brother that you |
| Tx:28.9 | laughter when you learn you have remembered consequences which were | causeless and could never be effects. The miracle reminds you of a |
| Tx:28.10 | There was no time in which His Son could be condemned for what was | causeless and against His Will. What your remembering would witness |
| Tx:28.14 | and Its benign effects. Now does he understand what he has made is | causeless, making no effects at all. He has done nothing. And in |
| Tx:28.15 | What has been lost, to see the | causeless not? And where is sacrifice, when memory of God has come to |
| Tx:28.20 | you see you made the one you would exchange for this. This world is | causeless, as is every dream that anyone has dreamed within the |
| Tx:28.25 | perceived as friends with merciful intent. Their enmity is seen as | causeless now, because they did not make it. And you can accept the |
| Tx:29.12 | as are hate and fear, attack and guilt but one. Where they are | causeless, their effects are gone, and love must come wherever they |

| Tx:13.34 | See only praise of Him in what He has created, for He will never | cease His praise of you. United in this praise, we stand before the |

| W1:4.3 | for application of the idea for today, identify each thought by the | central figure or event it contains. For example: |
| W1:8.4 | so, merely noting the thoughts you find there. Name each one by the | central figure or theme it contains, and pass on to the next. |
| W1:19.3 | at that time. As you consider each one, name it in terms of the | central person or theme it contains and, holding it in your mind as |
| W1:46.10 | The form of the applications may vary considerably, but the | central idea should not be lost sight of. You might say, for example: |
| W1:R1.3 | in the practice periods. Rather, try merely to emphasize the | central point and think about it as part of your review of the idea |
| W1:61.7 | and repeat the idea to yourself if your mind wanders away from the | central thought. |
| W1:74.1 | The idea for today can be regarded as the | central thought toward which all our exercises are directed. God's is |
| W1:80.1 | problems, you will recognize that you have no problems. Your one | central problem has been answered, and you have no other. Therefore |
| W1:91.1 | go together. This needs repeating and frequent repeating. It is a | central idea in your new thought system and the perception which it |
| W1:132.6 | Ideas leave not their source. This | central theme is often stated in the text and must be borne in mind |
| W1:132.7 | There is no world! This is the | central thought the course attempts to teach. Not everyone is ready |
| W1:137.1 | Today's idea remains the | central thought on which salvation rests. For healing is the opposite |
| W1:R4.1 | the lessons following. Thus we review the recent lessons and their | central thoughts in such a way as will facilitate the readiness which |
| W1:R4.2 | There is a | central theme that unifies each step in the review we undertake, |
| W1:169.10 | heart that does not beat as yet in tune with God. Forgiveness is the | central theme which runs throughout salvation, holding all its parts |

| W1:R6.3 | These practice sessions, like our last review, are centered round a | central theme with which we start and end each lesson. It is this: |
| W2:I.3 | We will continue with a | central thought for all the days to come. And we will use that |
| M:1.3 | aids involved. But the content of the course never changes. Its | central theme is always, “God's Son is guiltless, and in his |

| W2:I.7 | Whose holy will created all that is, can fail in nothing. In this | certainty, we undertake these last few steps to You and rest in |
| W2:221.1 | speak to me today. I come to hear Your Voice in silence and in | certainty and love, sure You will hear my call and answer me. |
| W2:235.1 | I need but look upon all things that seem to hurt me and with perfect | certainty assure myself, “God wills that I be saved from this,” and |

| W2:252.1 | an intensity that holds all things within it in the calm of quiet | certainty. Its strength comes not from burning impulses which move |
| W2:273.1 | to dismiss it and return to peace. We need but tell our minds with | certainty, “The stillness of the peace of God is mine,” and nothing |

| Tx:4.57 | behavior, but we have also said, and many times before, that you can | change your mind. When your mood tells you that you have chosen |

| Tx:5.28 | that made the decision for me is also in you and that you can let it | change you just as it changed me. This mind is unequivocal, because |

| Tx:6.71 | but they do not begin at that level. Strengthening motivation for | change is their first and foremost goal. It is also their last and |
| Tx:6.72 | Increasing motivation for | change in the learner is all that a teacher need do to guarantee |
| Tx:6.72 | for change in the learner is all that a teacher need do to guarantee | change. This is because a change in motivation is a change of mind, |
| Tx:6.72 | is all that a teacher need do to guarantee change. This is because a | change in motivation is a change of mind, and this will inevitably |
| Tx:6.72 | do to guarantee change. This is because a change in motivation is a | change of mind, and this will inevitably produce fundamental change, |
| Tx:6.72 | is a change of mind, and this will inevitably produce fundamental | change, because the mind is fundamental. The first step in the |

| Tx:7.47 | change that a Son of God can recognize his power in one instant and | change the world in the next. That is because by changing his mind he |

| Tx:7.51 | of me and Him who created me. Through this remembrance, you can | change their minds about themselves, as I can change yours. Your |

| Tx:8.32 | we are alike. If you want to be different, I will wait until you | change your mind. I can teach you, but only you can choose to listen |
| Tx:8.54 | them with yours and mine. This interpretation of the body will | change your mind entirely about its value. Of itself it has none. |

| Tx:9.61 | God does not | change His Mind about you, for He is not uncertain of Himself. And |
| Tx:9.63 | Then accept His decision, for it is indeed changeless, and refuse to | change your mind about yourself. God will never decide against you, |
| Tx:9.74 | You have not attacked God, and you do love Him. Can you | change your reality? No one can will to destroy himself. When you |

| Tx:13.39 | find the peace in which He has established you, because He does not | change His Mind. He is invariable as the peace in which you dwell and |
| Tx:13.40 | You will not remember | change and shift in Heaven. You have need of contrast only here. |
| Tx:14.36 | else. Where God is, there are you. Such is the truth. Nothing can | change the knowledge given you by God into unknowingness. Everything |
| Tx:14.39 | realities are meaningless, for reality must be one. It cannot | change with time or mood or chance. Its changelessness is what makes |
| Tx:14.44 | of holiness which shines in your mind is not obscure and will not | change. Its meaning to those who look upon it is not obscure, for |

| Tx:16.24 | in that is not you. What you accept into your minds does not really | change them. Illusions are but beliefs in what is not there. And the |
| Tx:16.33 | there was not love but hate. For hate is an illusion, and what can | change was never love. It is certain that those who select certain |
| Tx:16.54 | God is not angry. He merely could not let this happen. You cannot | change His Mind. |
| Tx:16.70 | For the special relationship is an attempt to reenact the past and | change it. Imagined slights, remembered pain, past disappointments, |
| Tx:16.71 | nothing now, it cannot have any real meaning at all. How can you | change the past except in fantasy? And who can give you what you |
| Tx:17.1 | apparent that they had no effect on reality at all and did not | change it. Fantasies change reality. That is their purpose. They |
| Tx:17.1 | had no effect on reality at all and did not change it. Fantasies | change reality. That is their purpose. They cannot do so in reality, |
| Tx:17.2 | It is, then, only your wish to | change reality that is fearful, because by your wish you think you |
| Tx:17.10 | has been used for learning will have no function. Nothing will ever | change; no shifts nor shadings, no differences, no variations which |
| Tx:17.23 | it where it is not and as it is not. Give the past to Him Who can | change your mind about it for you. But first be sure you fully |
| Tx:17.46 | Set firmly in the unholy relationship, there is no course except to | change the relationship to fit the goal. Until this happy solution is |
| Tx:17.47 | its liking. Only a radical shift in purpose could induce a complete | change of mind about what the whole relationship is for. As this |
| Tx:17.47 | change of mind about what the whole relationship is for. As this | change develops and is finally accomplished, it grows increasingly |
| Tx:17.79 | does not believe is real. Your purpose has not changed and will not | change, for you accepted what can never change. And nothing that it |
| Tx:17.79 | has not changed and will not change, for you accepted what can never | change. And nothing that it needs to be forever changeless can you |
| Tx:18.14 | Here, you are “free” to make over whatever seemed to attack you and | change it into a tribute to your ego, which was outraged by the |
| Tx:18.15 | of the ego's inability to tolerate reality and your willingness to | change reality on its behalf. |
| Tx:18.19 | protest against reality and your fixed and insane idea that you can | change it. In your waking dreams, the special relationship [has a |
| Tx:18.20 | would have used them to remain asleep. We once said that the first | change, before dreams disappear, is that your dreams of fear are |
| Tx:18.41 | would have no purpose. For they are all but aspects of the plan to | change your dreams of fear to happy dreams from which you waken |
| Tx:18.43 | a function? Yet it is possible because God wills it. Nor will He | change His Mind about it. The means and purpose both belong to Him. |
| Tx:18.44 | unholy means to its accomplishment. The little faith it needed to | change the purpose is all that is required to receive the means and |
| Tx:18.52 | it clearly can misperceive the function of the body, it cannot | change its function from what the Holy Spirit establishes it to be. |
| Tx:19.19 | But he cannot sin. There is nothing he can do that would really | change his reality in any way nor make him really guilty. That is |
| Tx:19.27 | results but without the loss of its appeal. And suddenly you | change its status from a sin to a mistake. Now you will not repeat |
| Tx:19.27 | stop and let it go unless the guilt remains. For then you will but | change the form of sin, granting that it was an error but keeping it |
| Tx:19.27 | it was an error but keeping it uncorrectable. This is not really a | change in your perception, for it is sin that calls for punishment, |
| Tx:19.29 | easily corrected in the mind, although the body's eyes will see no | change. The eyes see many things the mind corrects, and you respond, |
| Tx:19.30 | does not obey, the mind is judged insane. The only power which could | change perception is thus kept impotent, held to the body by the fear |
| Tx:20.16 | The belief in sin is an adjustment. And an adjustment is a | change; a shift in perception or a belief that what was so before has |
| Tx:20.16 | Knowledge requires no adjustment and in fact is lost if any shift or | change is undertaken. For this reduces it at once to mere perception |
| Tx:20.59 | The period of discomfort that follows the sudden | change in a relationship from sin to holiness should now be almost |
| Tx:20.77 | When you have looked on what seemed terrifying and seen it | change to sights of loveliness and peace; when you have looked on |
| Tx:20.77 | you have looked on scenes of violence and death and watched them | change to quiet views of gardens under open skies, with clear, |
| Tx:21.1 | As a man thinketh, so does he perceive. Therefore, seek not to | change the world, but will to change your mind about the world. |
| Tx:21.1 | he perceive. Therefore, seek not to change the world, but will to | change your mind about the world. Perception is a result, not a |
| Tx:21.13 | you everything; the very little on which salvation rests; the tiny | change of mind by which the crucifixion is changed to resurrection. |
| Tx:21.19 | taken from him and be replaced with truth. And as you look upon the | change in him, it will be given you to see it in yourself. |
| Tx:21.29 | purpose of the relationship. And that is why the Holy Spirit must | change its purpose to make it useful to Him and harmless unto you. |
| Tx:21.30 | If you accept this | change, you have accepted the idea of making room for truth. The |
| Tx:21.51 | miracles do not affect another's mind, only Its own. [They always | change your mind.] There is no other. |
| Tx:21.58 | by reason, cannot fail to lead to changed perception. And in this | change is room made way for vision. Vision extends beyond itself, as |
| Tx:21.65 | for how he sees himself. And reason tells you it is given you to | change his whole mind, which is one with you, in just an instant. And |
| Tx:21.81 | impossible. You can desire a world you rule which rules you not, and | change your mind. You can desire to exchange your helplessness for |
| Tx:21.81 | world and let an “enemy” tempt you to use the body's eyes and | change what you desire. |
| Tx:21.82 | made to all the rest. For only then have you renounced the option to | change your mind again. When it is this you do not want, the rest are |
| Tx:21.87 | The constancy of happiness has no exceptions—no | change of any kind. It is unshakable as is the love of God for His |
| Tx:21.90 | for time is powerless because of your desire for what will never | change. For you have asked that nothing stand between the holiness of |
| Tx:22.17 | To leave one kind of misery and seek another is hardly an escape. To | change illusions is to make no change. The search for joy in misery |
| Tx:22.17 | seek another is hardly an escape. To change illusions is to make no | change. The search for joy in misery is senseless, for how could joy |
| Tx:22.18 | is really fear. Joy does not turn to sorrow, for the eternal cannot | change. But sorrow can be turned to joy, for time gives way to the |
| Tx:22.18 | Only the timeless must remain unchanged, but everything in time can | change with time. Yet if the change be real and not imagined, |
| Tx:22.18 | unchanged, but everything in time can change with time. Yet if the | change be real and not imagined, illusions must give way to truth and |
| Tx:22.35 | Only mistakes have different forms, and so they can deceive. You can | change form because it is not true. It could not be reality, because |
| Tx:22.53 | Be not disturbed at all to think how He can | change the role of means and end so easily in what God loves and |
| Tx:22.58 | asked what is your function here and have been answered. Seek not to | change it nor to substitute another goal. [This one was given you and |
| Tx:23.41 | Attack in any form is equally destructive. Its purpose does not | change. Its sole intent is murder, and what form of murder serves to |
| Tx:23.54 | shared. They know it is impossible their happiness could ever suffer | change of any kind. Perhaps you think the battleground can offer |
| Tx:24.10 | Heaven gave it? What perspective can the special have that does not | change with every seeming blow, each slight, or fancied judgment on |
| Tx:24.18 | him and the function of salvation given him for you. Nor will you | change his function, any more than you can change the truth in him |
| Tx:24.18 | him for you. Nor will you change his function, any more than you can | change the truth in him and in yourself. But be you certain that the |
| Tx:24.35 | Yet bodies have no goal. Purpose is of the mind. And minds can | change as they desire. What they are and all their attributes, they |
| Tx:24.35 | as they desire. What they are and all their attributes, they cannot | change. But what they hold as purpose can be changed, and body states |
| Tx:24.36 | Nothing could make more sense to miracles. For miracles are merely | change of purpose from hurt to healing. |
| Tx:25.12 | as you perceive it. Yet it must be evident the outcome does not | change. Despite your hopes and fancies, always does despair result. |
| Tx:25.13 | your reward. How long is needed for you to realize the chance of | change in this respect is hardly worth delaying change that might |
| Tx:25.13 | the chance of change in this respect is hardly worth delaying | change that might result in better outcome? For one thing is sure— |
| Tx:25.30 | not be there in yours. Sin is the fixed belief perception cannot | change. What has been damned is damned and damned forever, being |
| Tx:25.30 | it is forgiven, sin's perception must have been wrong. And thus is | change made possible. The Holy Spirit too sees what He sees as far |
| Tx:25.30 | The Holy Spirit too sees what He sees as far beyond the chance of | change. But on His vision sin cannot encroach, for sin has been |
| Tx:25.30 | is attacked by punishment and so preserved. But to forgive it is to | change its state from error into truth. |
| Tx:25.32 | that makes the choice of means inevitable and beyond the hope of | change unless the aim is changed. And then the means are chosen once |
| Tx:25.50 | cannot be a sin. Sin is the one thing in all the world that cannot | change. It is immutable. And on its changelessness the world depends. |
| Tx:25.50 | is safe from love to everyone who thinks sin possible. Nor will it | change. Yet is it possible what God created not should share the |
| Tx:25.54 | The Holy Spirit has the power to | change the whole foundation of the world you see to something else— |
| Tx:26.10 | and through the same approach. The aspects which need solving do not | change, whatever form the problem seems to take. A problem can appear |
| Tx:26.24 | this like your special function, where the separation is undone by | change of purpose in what once was specialness and now is union? All |
| Tx:26.28 | that what he fear[s,] he loves the most. What but a miracle could | change his mind, so that he understands that love cannot be feared? |
| Tx:26.36 | this dream be to where he really is? For this is fact and does not | change whatever dreams he has. Yet can he still imagine he is |
| Tx:26.37 | And how much can his own delusions about time and place affect a | change in where he really is? The unforgiven is a voice that calls |
| Tx:26.41 | The shadow voices do not | change the laws of time or of eternity. They come from what is past |
| Tx:26.67 | He has already answered all who call on Him? A miracle can make no | change at all. But it can make what always has been true be |
| Tx:26.73 | Yet the acceptance of the working out can seem to take forever. The | change of purpose the Holy Spirit brought to your relationship has in |
| Tx:26.74 | hints at punishment until the time of liberation is at hand. Given a | change of purpose for the good, there is no reason for an interval in |
| Tx:27.79 | dream the world has ever had. The “hero” of this dream will never | change nor will its purpose. Though the dream itself takes many forms |
| Tx:28.6 | past had caused the present, which is but a consequence in which no | change can be made possible because its cause has gone. Yet change |
| Tx:28.6 | which no change can be made possible because its cause has gone. Yet | change must have a cause that will endure or else it will not last. |
| Tx:28.6 | must have a cause that will endure or else it will not last. No | change can be made in the present if its cause is past. Only the past |
| Tx:28.19 | caused the dream and can accept another dream as well. But for this | change in content of the dream, it must be realized that it is you |
| Tx:28.21 | a dream, but never will you give it real effects. For that would | change its cause, and it is this you cannot do. The dreamer of a |
| Tx:28.27 | another choice instead. Beginning here, salvation will proceed to | change the course of every step in the descent to separation, until |
| Tx:29.15 | based, and there is nothing else it rests upon. Its basis does not | change, although it seems to be in constant change. Yet what is that |
| Tx:29.15 | upon. Its basis does not change, although it seems to be in constant | change. Yet what is that except the state confusion really means? |
| Tx:29.15 | Stability to those who are confused is meaningless, and shift and | change become the law on which they predicate their lives. |
| Tx:29.16 | The body does not | change. It represents the larger dream that change is possible. To |
| Tx:29.16 | The body does not change. It represents the larger dream that | change is possible. To change is to attain a state unlike the one in |
| Tx:29.16 | change. It represents the larger dream that change is possible. To | change is to attain a state unlike the one in which you found |
| Tx:29.16 | state unlike the one in which you found yourself before. There is no | change in immortality, and Heaven knows it not. Yet here on earth it |
| Tx:29.16 | reflect the teacher who is teaching them. The body can appear to | change with time, with sickness or with health, and with events that |
| Tx:29.26 | the material of dreams from which they all are made. Their form can | change, but they cannot be made of something else. The miracle were |
| Tx:29.29 | Spirit gives is never one of fear. The coverings may not appear to | change, but what they mean has changed because they cover something |
| Tx:29.31 | And where They are is Heaven and is peace. Think not that you can | change Their dwelling place. For your Identity abides in Them, and |
| Tx:29.37 | made. Yet nothing in the world of dreams remains without the hope of | change and betterment, for here is not where changelessness is found. |
| Tx:29.39 | go, the tides, the seasons, and the lives of men; all things that | change with time and bloom and fade will not return. Where time has |
| Tx:29.39 | time has set an end is not where the eternal is. God's Son can never | change by what men made of him. He will be as he was and as he is, |
| Tx:29.39 | nor set the hour of his birth and death. Forgiveness will not | change him. Yet time waits upon forgiveness that the things of time |
| Tx:29.40 | then die it must unless it does not take this purpose as its own. | Change is the only thing that can be made a blessing here, where |
| Tx:29.40 | a purpose that you do not have. But you can not remove the power to | change your mind and see another purpose there. Change is the |
| Tx:29.40 | remove the power to change your mind and see another purpose there. | Change is the greatest gift God gave to all that you would make |
| Tx:29.41 | You were not born to die. You cannot | change, because your function has been fixed by God. All other goals |
| Tx:29.41 | function has been fixed by God. All other goals are set in time and | change that time might be preserved, excepting one. Forgiveness does |
| Tx:29.49 | To | change all this and open up a road of hope and of release in what |
| Tx:29.55 | A dark and fearful purpose, yet a thought without the power to | change one blade of grass from something living to a sign of death. |
| Tx:29.57 | the timeless to be made the slaves of time. Here does the changeless | change, the peace of God, forever given to all living things, give |
| Tx:30.15 | to receive you cannot even let your question go, you can begin to | change your mind with this: |
| Tx:30.42 | be but what he is. For more than whole is meaningless. If there were | change in him, if he could be reduced to any form and limited to what |
| Tx:30.43 | ending nor a time in which His Thoughts were absent or could suffer | change. Thoughts are not born and cannot die. They share the |
| Tx:30.45 | The Thoughts of God are far beyond all | change and shine forever. They await not birth. They wait for welcome |
| Tx:30.72 | This understanding is the only | change that lets the real world rise to take the place of dreams of |
| Tx:30.81 | you, and you will understand he could not make an error that could | change the truth in him. It is not difficult to overlook mistakes |
| Tx:30.82 | its aim but must be in accord with it. For only if its aim could | change with every situation could each one be open to interpretation |
| Tx:30.83 | in themselves is demonstrated by the ease with which these labels | change with other judgments made on different aspects of experience. |
| Tx:30.83 | meaning there? But you assigned a meaning in the light of goals that | change, with every meaning shifting as they change. |
| Tx:30.83 | the light of goals that change, with every meaning shifting as they | change. |
| Tx:30.85 | given everything, and you are glad to see it everywhere. It cannot | change because you would perceive it everywhere, unchanged by |
| Tx:30.86 | idea of different goals which makes perception shift and meaning | change. In one united goal does this become impossible, for your |
| Tx:30.89 | beyond appearances, you are deceived. For everything you see will | change, and yet you thought it real before, and now you think it real |
| Tx:30.89 | think it real again. Reality is thus reduced to form and capable of | change. Reality is changeless. It is this that makes it real and |
| Tx:30.89 | all appearances. It must transcend all form to be itself. It cannot | change. |
| Tx:30.90 | The miracle is means to demonstrate that all appearances can | change because they are appearances and cannot have the |

| W1:83.4 | My perception of this does not | change my function. This does not give me a function other than the |
| W1:92.1 | body and its eyes and brain. This is why you believe that you can | change what you see by putting little bits of glass or other clear |

| W1:122.13 | throughout the day, as you return again to meet a world of shifting | change and bleak appearances. Retain your gifts in clear awareness as |
| W1:122.13 | gifts in clear awareness as you see the changeless in the heart of | change, the light of truth behind appearances. Be tempted not to let |
| W1:123.3 | that His Love forever will remain shining on you, forever without | change. Give thanks as well that you are changeless, for the Son He |

| W1:132.11 | of the world? To free the world from every kind of pain is but to | change your mind about yourself. There is no world apart from your |
| W1:132.20 | and say whenever you are tempted to deny the power of your simple | change of mind: |
| W1:133.5 | The range is set, and this we cannot | change. It would be most ungenerous to you to let alternatives be |
| W1:135.17 | The mind that plans is thus refusing to allow for | change. What it has learned before becomes the basis for its future |
| W1:136.2 | And like all the rest, its purpose is to hide reality, attack it, | change it, render it inept, distort it, twist it, or reduce it to a |
| W1:136.12 | God knows not of your plans to | change His Will. The universe remains unheeding of the laws by which |
| W1:136.12 | plans to defeat what cannot be attacked. What is unalterable cannot | change. And what is wholly sinless cannot sin. |
| W1:138.13 | Heaven is the decision I must make. I make it now and will not | change my mind, because it is the only thing I want. |
| W1:139.5 | It is for this denial that you need Atonement. Your denial made no | change in what you are. But you have split your mind into what knows |

| W1:140.7 | be cured. There is no remedy the world provides that can effect a | change in anything. The mind that brings illusions to the truth is |

| W1:151.11 | sure. And you will see the love beyond the hate, the constancy in | change, the pure in sin, and only Heaven's blessing on the world. |
| W1:155.1 | in the world that is not here, although it seems to be. You do not | change appearance, though you smile more frequently. Your forehead is |
| W1:158.4 | if by magic. Yet there is a plan behind appearances which does not | change. The script is written. When experience will come to end your |
| W1:162.4 | we use are mighty, and they need no thoughts beyond themselves to | change the mind of him who uses them. So wholly is it changed that it |
| W1:164.9 | it holds for you receiving your consent and your acceptance. We can | change the world if you acknowledge them. You may not see the value |
| W1:166.14 | are justified. Your hand becomes the giver of Christ's touch; your | change of mind becomes the proof that who accepts God's gifts can |
| W1:167.3 | as mind directs it. But its origin is where it must be changed if | change occurs. Ideas leave not their source. The emphasis this course |
| W1:167.3 | has placed on that idea is due to its centrality in our attempts to | change your mind about yourself. It is the reason you can heal. It is |
| W1:167.4 | that you are separate from your Creator. It is the belief conditions | change, emotions alternate because of causes you cannot control, you |
| W1:167.4 | of causes you cannot control, you did not make, and you can never | change. It is the fixed belief ideas can leave their source and take |
| W1:167.6 | The mind can think it sleeps, but that is all. It cannot | change what is its waking state. It cannot make a body nor abide |
| W1:167.6 | all things that are and cannot give them attributes it lacks nor | change its own eternal, mindful state. It cannot make the physical. |
| W1:167.7 | what created it because it is not opposite in truth. Its form may | change; it may appear to be what it is not. Yet mind is mind, awake |
| W1:181.2 | has a focus. It is this which gives consistency to what you see. | Change but this focus, and what you behold will change accordingly. |
| W1:181.2 | to what you see. Change but this focus, and what you behold will | change accordingly. Your vision now will shift to give support to the |

| W1:181.6 | arise, we will transcend them with instructions to our minds to | change their focus, as we say: |
| W1:185.7 | requesting the eternal in the place of shifting dreams which seem to | change in what they offer, but are one in nothingness. |
| W1:185.9 | of the road to reappear unrecognized in forms which shift and | change with every step you take. |
| W1:186.8 | for ourselves. Our self-made roles are shifting, and they seem to | change from mourner to ecstatic bliss of loved and loving. We can |
| W1:186.8 | greet the day with welcome or with tears. Our very being seems to | change as we experience a thousand shifts in mood, and our emotions |
| W1:186.10 | The functions which the world esteems are so uncertain that they | change ten times an hour at their most secure. What hope of gain can |
| W1:186.11 | no error. And His Voice is certain of its messages. They will not | change nor be in conflict. All of them point to one goal, and one you |
| W1:187.4 | have is thereby proven yours. Yet value not its form. For this will | change and grow unrecognizable in time, however much you try to keep |
| W1:188.1 | The light is in them now. Enlightenment is but a recognition, not a | change at all. Light is not of the world, yet you who bear the light |

| W1:190.6 | your thoughts. And it will change entirely as you elect to | change your mind and choose the joy of God as what you really want. |
| W1:194.7 | correction. He is free to choose again when he has been deceived, to | change his mind when he has made mistakes. |
| W1:195.6 | ever can be made which would reduce our wholeness nor impair or | change our function to complete the One Who is Himself completion. We |
| W1:200.5 | given you where you beheld but chains and iron doors. For you must | change your mind about the purpose of the world if you would find |
| W2:I.9 | fail to have the Son whom He created for Himself. We wanted God to | change Himself and be what we would make of Him. And we believed that |
| W2:226.1 | world entirely. It is not death which makes this possible, but it is | change of mind about the purpose of the world. If I believe it has a |
| W2:230.1 | peace I was created. And in peace do I remain. It is not given me to | change my Self. How merciful is God my Father, that when He created |
| W2:230.2 | for my creation was apart from time and still remains beyond all | change. The peace in which Your Son was born into Your Mind is |
| W2:WIW.5 | until forgiveness has been made complete. And let us not attempt to | change our function. We must save the world. For we who made it must |
| W2:WIS.2 | itself. Its purpose is to strive. Yet can the goal of striving | change. And now the body serves a different aim for striving. What it |
| W2:WIS.4 | and loves him with an everlasting Love which his pretenses cannot | change at all. |
| W2:WIB.3 | to be fearful, must the body serve the purpose given it. But we can | change the purpose which the body will obey by changing what we think |
| W2:284.1 | more and more, and finally accepted as the truth. I can elect to | change all thoughts that hurt. And I would go beyond these words |
| W2:308.1 | defeat my aim. If I elect to reach past time to timelessness, I must | change my perception of what time is for. Time's purpose cannot be to |
| W2:309.1 | I, His Son, whose will is limitless as is His own, can will no | change in this. For to deny my Father's Will is to deny my own. To |
| W2:WICR.1 | Nor will there be a time when anything that It created suffers any | change. Forever and forever are God's thoughts exactly as they were |
| W2:329.1 | Your Will, extended and extending. This am I. And this will never | change. As You are One, so am I one with You. And this I chose in my |
| W2:329.1 | one with Yours. That choice was made for all eternity. It cannot | change and be in opposition to itself. Father, my will is Yours. And |
| W2:WIE.5 | Yet will one lily of forgiveness | change the darkness into light, the altar to illusions to the shrine |
| W2:338.1 | but since these thoughts belong to him alone, he has the power to | change them and exchange each fear thought for a happy thought of |
| W2:WIM.1 | A miracle is a correction. It does not create nor really | change at all. It merely looks on devastation and reminds the mind |
| W2:E.2 | your pathway is more certain still, for it cannot be possible to | change the course of those whom God has called to Him. Therefore, |
| M:1.4 | without hope. There was never a question of outcome, for what can | change the Will of God? But time, with its illusions of change and |
| M:1.4 | for what can change the Will of God? But time, with its illusions of | change and death, wears out the world and all things in it. Yet time |
| M:3.3 | illusion of the other. In time, the teacher of God seems to begin to | change his mind about the world with the single decision, and then |
| M:4.10 | anywhere if peace of mind is already complete? And who would seek to | change tranquility for something more desirable? What could be more |
| M:4.24 | and in joy so glorious they could never have conceived of such a | change. Nothing is now as it was formerly. Nothing but sparkles now |
| M:5.8 | If the patient must | change his mind in order to be healed, what does the teacher of God |
| M:5.8 | mind in order to be healed, what does the teacher of God do? Can he | change the patient's mind for him? Certainly not. For those already |
| M:5.8 | patient's mind for him? Certainly not. For those already willing to | change their mind he has no function except to rejoice with them, for |
| M:6.4 | And it is trust that makes true giving possible. Healing is the | change of mind that the Holy Spirit in the patient's mind is seeking |
| M:7.1 | must so regard himself. He has made a mistake and must be willing to | change his mind about it. He lacked the trust that makes for giving |
| M:9.1 | always highly individualized. There are those who are called upon to | change their life situation almost immediately, but these are |

| Tx:21.17 | It is impossible that the happenings that come to him were not his | choice. His power of decision is the determiner of every situation in |
| Tx:21.33 | for losing certainty and finding sin. This mad direction was your | choice, and by your faith in what you chose, you made what you |
| Tx:21.49 | and senseless ravings to those who want to hear it. Perception is a | choice and not a fact. But on this choice depends far more than you |
| Tx:21.49 | want to hear it. Perception is a choice and not a fact. But on this | choice depends far more than you may realize as yet. For on the voice |
| Tx:21.50 | itself. But your awareness of it needs your help because it is your | choice. Listen to what the ego says and see what it directs you see, |
| Tx:21.51 | and another Voice in which your freedom lies awaiting but your | choice. And if you place your faith in them, you will perceive |
| Tx:21.64 | the Son of God to what can never be corrected. You tell him by your | choice that he is damned—separate from you and from his Father |
| Tx:21.64 | he is as you would have him, and what you choose he be is but your | choice for you. Yet think not this is fearful. That you are joined to |
| Tx:21.77 | Forget not that the | choice of truth or sin, power or helplessness, is the choice of |
| Tx:21.77 | not that the choice of truth or sin, power or helplessness, is the | choice of whether to attack or heal. For healing comes of power and |
| Tx:21.77 | chose to be protected from attack. And what is this decision but the | choice whether to see him through the body's eyes or let him be |
| Tx:21.77 | effects is not your problem. But what you want to see must be your | choice. This is a course in cause and not effect. |
| Tx:22.23 | he will do it is beyond your understanding, but when must be your | choice. For time you made, and time you can command. You are no more |
| Tx:22.39 | although you still may think you can go back and make the other | choice. This is not so. A choice made with the power of Heaven to |
| Tx:22.39 | think you can go back and make the other choice. This is not so. A | choice made with the power of Heaven to uphold it cannot be undone. |
| Tx:22.51 | it possible of mind or body, and he will make the other serve his | choice as means to find it. |
| Tx:23.15 | was less real, made an illusion by defeat. Thus, conflict is the | choice between illusions, one to be crowned as real, the other |
| Tx:23.24 | for His belief. His Son can tell Him this, and He has but the | choice whether to take his word for it or be mistaken. This leads |
| Tx:23.51 | real. Here you have chosen to be part of it. Here murder is your | choice. Yet from above, the choice is miracles instead of murder. And |
| Tx:23.51 | to be part of it. Here murder is your choice. Yet from above, the | choice is miracles instead of murder. And the perspective coming from |
| Tx:23.51 | is miracles instead of murder. And the perspective coming from this | choice shows you the battle is not real and easily escaped. Bodies |
| Tx:23.51 | in it? How can the truth of miracles be recognized if murder is your | choice? |
| Tx:23.55 | wanted more? Who with the love of God upholding him could find the | choice of miracles or murder hard to make? |
| Tx:24.57 | a purpose and without accomplishment of any kind, is all the other | choice can offer you. Futility of function not fulfilled will haunt |
| Tx:24.65 | think you save, you hurt. What would you save it for? For in that | choice lie both its health and harm. Save it for show, as bait to |
| Tx:24.72 | serve another goal. It is not bound to specialness but by your | choice. And it is given you to make a different choice and use |
| Tx:24.72 | but by your choice. And it is given you to make a different | choice and use perception for a different purpose. And what you see |
| Tx:25.6 | Perception is a | choice of what you want yourself to be—the world you want to live |
| Tx:25.13 | no hope lies must make you hopeless. Yet is this hopelessness your | choice, while you would seek for hope where none is ever found. |
| Tx:25.28 | time he chooses can be any time, for help is there, awaiting but his | choice. And when he chooses to avail himself of what is given him, |
| Tx:25.29 | two questions are the same. And when you see them as the same, your | choice is made. For it is seeing them as one that brings release from |
| Tx:25.31 | or damned? Forgetting not that what he is to you will make this | choice your future? For you make it now, the instant when all time |
| Tx:25.31 | when all time becomes a means to reach a goal. Make then your | choice. But recognize that in this choice the purpose of the world |
| Tx:25.31 | to reach a goal. Make then your choice. But recognize that in this | choice the purpose of the world you see is chosen and will be |
| Tx:25.32 | varies. Yet it is the way in which the aim is seen that makes the | choice of means inevitable and beyond the hope of change unless the |
| Tx:25.47 | perfect form, can he yet do one perfect thing and make one perfect | choice. And by this act of special faithfulness to one perceived as |
| Tx:25.48 | to be the means for his salvation from the very instant that the | choice was made. His special sin was made his special grace. His |
| Tx:25.49 | made can serve salvation easily and well. The Son of God can make no | choice the Holy Spirit cannot employ on his behalf and not against |
| Tx:25.52 | gives any meaning to are false and make no sense at all. This is the | choice you make. Do not attempt to see it differently nor twist it |
| Tx:25.56 | makes it most acceptable to those who are insane requires special | choice. Nor can this choice be made by the insane, whose problem is |
| Tx:25.56 | to those who are insane requires special choice. Nor can this | choice be made by the insane, whose problem is their choices are not |
| Tx:25.57 | who chose insanity as his salvation. To this One is given the | choice of form most suitable to him; one which will not attack the |
| Tx:26.18 | in Him? What is there to decide? For it is conflict that makes | choice [complex]. The truth is simple—it is one, without an |
| Tx:26.20 | where Oneness is. Salvation is a borderland where place and time and | choice have meaning still, and yet it can be seen that they are |
| Tx:26.20 | yet it can be seen that they are temporary, out of place, and every | choice has been already made. |
| Tx:26.21 | what is different remain unclear. The one essential thing to make a | choice at all is this distinction. And herein lies the difference |
| Tx:26.21 | And herein lies the difference between the worlds. In this one, | choice is made impossible. In the real world is choosing simplified. |
| Tx:26.22 | Heaven was never lost and so cannot be saved. Yet who can make a | choice between the wish for Heaven and the wish for hell unless he |
| Tx:26.22 | is the same and what is different, leaving room to make the only | choice which can be made. |
| Tx:26.23 | There is no basis for | choice in this complex and over-complicated world. For no one |
| Tx:26.23 | For no one understands what is the same and seems to choose where no | choice really is. The real world is the area of choice made real, not |
| Tx:26.23 | to choose where no choice really is. The real world is the area of | choice made real, not in the outcome but in the perception of |
| Tx:26.23 | real, not in the outcome but in the perception of alternatives for | choice. That there is choice is an illusion. Yet within this one lies |
| Tx:26.23 | but in the perception of alternatives for choice. That there is | choice is an illusion. Yet within this one lies the undoing of every |
| Tx:26.24 | choose between them and to make them different. [How simple is the | choice between two things so clearly unalike.] There is no conflict |
| Tx:26.30 | There are but two directions you can take while time remains and | choice is meaningful. For never will another road be made except the |
| Tx:26.54 | of other choices and has not yet reached beyond the world of | choice entirely. |
| Tx:27.35 | has come, not to destroy, but to receive Its own. There is no | choice of function anywhere. The choice you fear to lose you never |
| Tx:27.35 | but to receive Its own. There is no choice of function anywhere. The | choice you fear to lose you never had. Yet only this appears to |
| Tx:27.63 | clouds, the problem will emerge in all its primitive simplicity. The | choice will not be difficult, because the problem is absurd when |
| Tx:27.70 | it is, for thus are you the one decider of your destiny in time. The | choice is yours to make between a sleeping death and dreams of evil |
| Tx:27.70 | or sleeping, peace or war, your dreams or your reality? Yet if the | choice is really given you, then you must see the causes of the |
| Tx:27.71 | An honest | choice could never be perceived as one in which the choice is split |
| Tx:27.71 | An honest choice could never be perceived as one in which the | choice is split between a tiny you and an enormous world, with |
| Tx:27.74 | terror and in fear of death. He brings forgiving dreams in which the | choice is not who is the murderer and who shall be the victim. In the |
| Tx:28.19 | but merely shows you who the dreamer is. It teaches you there is a | choice of dreams while you are still asleep, depending on the purpose |
| Tx:28.27 | suffering, of sin and guilt. They are the dream's alternative, the | choice to be the dreamer rather than deny the active role in making |
| Tx:28.27 | me, but I am doing this.” And thus the mind is free to make another | choice instead. Beginning here, salvation will proceed to change the |
| Tx:28.47 | his mind from sharing them is sharing Him. There is no other | choice. Except you share it, nothing can exist. And you exist because |
| Tx:28.55 | it has no feeling. It behaves in ways you want but never makes the | choice. It is not born and does not die. It can but follow aimlessly |
| Tx:28.62 | your brother, or you are as one. There is no in between, no other | choice, and no allegiance to be split between the two. A split |
| Tx:28.63 | have chosen that it not be sick. All miracles are based upon this | choice and given you the instant it is made. No forms of sickness are |
| Tx:28.63 | the instant it is made. No forms of sickness are immune because the | choice cannot be made in terms of form. The choice of sickness seems |
| Tx:28.63 | are immune because the choice cannot be made in terms of form. The | choice of sickness seems to be a form, yet it is one, as is its |
| Tx:29.10 | way that you have chosen. And you will not see the many gains your | choice has offered you. Yet though you do not see them, they are |
| Tx:29.25 | Could it be some dreams are kept and others wakened from? The | choice is not between which dreams to keep, but only if you want to |
| Tx:30.34 | with you in willing you be free. And to oppose Him is to make a | choice against yourself and choose that you be bound. |
| Tx:30.54 | the mind that wants to be deceived. And you can make a simple | choice that will forever place you far beyond deception. You need not |
| Tx:31.11 | it is a state of mind unwanted that becomes the means whereby the | choice is reassessed; another outcome seen to be preferred. You are |
| Tx:31.14 | you can look past them to the one alternative that is a different | choice. But not in dreams you made that this might be obscured to you. |
| Tx:31.15 | What you would choose between is not a | choice and gives but the illusion it is free, for it will have one |
| Tx:31.15 | for it will have one outcome either way. Thus is it really not a | choice at all. The leader and the follower emerge as separate roles, |
| Tx:31.17 | him. Two calls you make to him, as he to you. Between these two is | choice because from them there is a different outcome. If he be the |
| Tx:31.23 | follows. Thus it is a way you go together, not alone. And in this | choice is learning's outcome changed, for Christ has been reborn to |
| Tx:31.26 | Only the self-accused condemn. As you prepare to make a | choice that will result in different outcomes, there is first one |
| Tx:31.33 | purpose is to keep. Why should this be? Because it is a place where | choice among illusions seems to be the only choice. And you are in |
| Tx:31.33 | it is a place where choice among illusions seems to be the only | choice. And you are in control of outcomes of your choosing. Thus you |
| Tx:31.34 | Real | choice is no illusion. But the world has none to offer. All its roads |
| Tx:31.34 | but lead to disappointment, nothingness, and death. There is no | choice in its alternatives. Seek not escape from problems here. The |
| Tx:31.34 | differently they seem to go. Their end is certain, for there is no | choice among them. All of them will lead to death. On some you travel |
| Tx:31.34 | the bleakness enters. And on some the thorns are felt at once. The | choice is not what will the ending be but when it comes. |
| Tx:31.35 | There is no | choice where every end is sure. Perhaps you would prefer to try them |
| Tx:31.35 | reach this point and go beyond it. It is true indeed there is no | choice at all within the world. But this is not the lesson in itself. |
| Tx:31.37 | begin with this, to seek another way instead? For while he sees a | choice where there is none, what power of decision can he use? The |
| Tx:31.37 | And what decision has power if it be applied in situations without | choice? |
| Tx:31.38 | The learning that the world can offer but one | choice, no matter what its form may be, is the beginning of |
| Tx:31.40 | There is a | choice which you have power to make when you have seen the real |
| Tx:31.40 | seen the real alternatives. Until that point is reached, you have no | choice, and you can but decide how you would choose the better to |
| Tx:31.54 | self from what is wholly passive and at least makes way for active | choice and some acknowledgment that interaction must have entered in. |
| Tx:31.55 | to the second from the first is that you somehow entered in the | choice by your decision. But this gain is paid in almost equal loss, |
| Tx:31.56 | but with the simple statement that it thinks. And what can think has | choice and can be shown that different thoughts have different |
| Tx:31.62 | must be false, for what is real denies its opposite. There is no | choice in vision but this one. What you decide in this determines all |
| Tx:31.62 | all you see and think is real and hold as true. On this one | choice does all your world depend, for here have you established what |
| Tx:31.64 | and perceive the body not. It merely asks that this should be your | choice. For you can see the body without help but do not understand |
| Tx:31.79 | can look with love or look with hate, depending only on the simple | choice of whether you would join with what you see or keep yourself |
| Tx:31.86 | How do you make the | choice? How easily is this explained! You always choose between your |
| Tx:31.87 | you failed to learn presented once again, so where you made a faulty | choice before, you now can make a better one and thus escape all pain |
| Tx:31.91 | are miracles as natural as fear and agony appeared to be before the | choice for holiness was made. For in that choice are false |
| Tx:31.91 | appeared to be before the choice for holiness was made. For in that | choice are false distinctions gone, illusory alternatives laid by, |
| Tx:31.92 | Choose once again what you would have him be, remembering that every | choice you make establishes your own identity as you will see it and |
| Tx:31.94 | content. For you will hear, and you will choose again. And in this | choice is everyone made free. |
| Tx:31.95 | for them. Salvation's song will echo through the world with every | choice they make. For we are one in purpose, and the end of hell is |
| W1:51.4 | now for this merely by being willing to do so. Is not this a better | choice than the one I made before? |
| W1:52.5 | truly be said that I see nothing. I can see only what is now. The | choice is not whether to see the past or the present: it is whether |
| W1:64.6 | on earth can have a content different from just this one simple | choice. That is the only choice the Holy Spirit sees. Therefore it is |
| W1:64.6 | content different from just this one simple choice. That is the only | choice the Holy Spirit sees. Therefore it is the only choice there is. |
| W1:64.6 | is the only choice the Holy Spirit sees. Therefore it is the only | choice there is. |
| W1:66.9 | to choose between and no other outcomes possible as a result of your | choice but the fear which the ego always engenders and the love which |
| W1:66.12 | You will listen to madness or hear the truth. Try to make this | choice as you think about the premises on which our conclusion rests. |
| W1:98.4 | the call we heard and answer it, when they have come to make their | choice again. We do not choose but for ourselves today. |
| W1:98.13 | you take and help you fill, and He will make you sure you want this | choice, which He has made with you and you with Him. |
| W1:102.6 | function deep within your mind, for it is there, awaiting but your | choice. You cannot fail to find it when you learn it is your choice |
| W1:102.6 | your choice. You cannot fail to find it when you learn it is your | choice and that you share God's Will. |
| W1:106.12 | and learning it of Him. Do not forget today to reinforce your | choice to hear and to receive the Word by this reminder, given to |
| W1:129.6 | Such is the | choice. What loss can be for you in choosing not to value |
| W1:129.11 | for we have seen its opposite at last, and we are grateful that the | choice is made. Remember your decision hourly, and take a moment to |
| W1:129.11 | Remember your decision hourly, and take a moment to confirm your | choice by laying by whatever thoughts you have, and dwelling briefly |
| W1:130.1 | you see reflects your thinking. And your thinking but reflects your | choice of what you want to see. Your values are determiners of this, |
| W1:130.5 | one; the other disappears. But one remains. They are the range of | choice beyond which your decision cannot go. The real and the unreal |
| W1:130.6 | none is possible. The world you see is proof you have already made a | choice as all-embracing as its opposite. What we would learn today is |
| W1:130.10 | before. And you will know God's strength upheld as you made this | choice. |
| W1:130.11 | today whenever it arises merely by remembering the limits on your | choice. The unreal or the real, the false or true is what you see, |
| W1:130.11 | you see, and only what you see. Perception is consistent with your | choice, and hell or Heaven comes to you as one. |
| W1:130.12 | indeed. Yet the release of Heaven still remains within your range of | choice to take the place of everything that hell would show to you. |
| W1:133.4 | The laws which govern | choice you cannot make, no more than you can make alternatives from |
| W1:133.5 | to you to let alternatives be limitless and thus delay your final | choice until you had considered all of them in time and not been |
| W1:133.5 | and not been brought so clearly to the place where there is but one | choice that must be made. |
| W1:133.6 | kindly and related law is that there is no compromise in what your | choice must bring. It cannot give you just a little, for there is no |
| W1:133.6 | It cannot give you just a little, for there is no in-between. Each | choice you make brings everything to you or nothing. Therefore, if |
| W1:133.6 | can distinguish everything from nothing, you will make the better | choice. |
| W1:133.9 | next consideration is the one on which the others rest. Why is the | choice you make of value to you? What attracts your mind to it? What |
| W1:133.12 | And so we come to the criterion for | choice which is the hardest to believe, because its obviousness is |
| W1:133.12 | with many levels of obscurity. If you feel any guilt about your | choice, you have allowed the ego's goals to come between the real |
| W1:134.10 | Thus will you see alternatives for | choice in terms which render choosing meaningful and keep your mind |
| W1:135.17 | the basis for its future goals. Its past experience directs its | choice of what will happen. And it does not see that here and now is |
| W1:136.3 | you choose to use them. In that second, even less, in which the | choice is made, you recognize exactly what you would attempt to do |
| W1:136.8 | unsought, which makes you weak and brings you suffering. It is a | choice you make, a plan you lay when for an instant truth arises in |
| W1:136.10 | than the truth, which asks you live but cannot overcome your | choice to die. And so the body is more powerful than everlasting |
| W1:137.12 | Ask the inevitable to occur, and you will never fail. The other | choice is but to ask what cannot be to be, and this cannot succeed. |
| W1:138.1 | In this world, Heaven is a | choice because here we believe there are alternatives to choose |
| W1:138.2 | It is this strange perception of the truth that makes the | choice of Heaven seem to be the same as the relinquishment of hell. |
| W1:138.3 | Choice is the obvious escape from what appears as opposites. Decision | |
| W1:138.4 | there is really only one to make. And even this but seems to be a | choice. Do not confuse yourself with all the doubts that myriad |
| W1:138.4 | make but one. And when that one is made, you will perceive it was no | choice at all, for truth is true and nothing else is real. There is |
| W1:138.6 | this insanely complicated world, Heaven appears to take the form of | choice rather than merely being what it is. Of all the choices you |
| W1:138.6 | this one by taking different forms. Here is the final and the only | choice in which is truth accepted or denied. |
| W1:138.7 | So we begin today considering the | choice that time was made to help us make. Such is its holy purpose, |
| W1:138.9 | Heaven is chosen consciously. The | choice cannot be made until alternatives are accurately seen and |
| W1:138.10 | The conscious | choice of Heaven is as sure as is the ending of the fear of hell when |
| W1:138.10 | the clearly seen and the unrecognized? Yet who can fail to make a | choice between alternatives when only one is seen as valuable, the |
| W1:138.10 | a but imagined source of guilt and pain? Who hesitates to make a | choice like this? And shall we hesitate to choose today? |
| W1:138.11 | We make the | choice for Heaven as we wake and spend five minutes making sure that |
| W1:138.11 | made the one decision that is sane. We recognize we make a conscious | choice between what has existence and what has nothing but an |
| W1:138.12 | Before we close our eyes in sleep tonight, we reaffirm the | choice that we have made each hour in between. And now we give the |
| W1:138.12 | with which we awoke. As every hour passed, we have declared our | choice again in a brief quiet time devoted to maintaining sanity. And |
| W1:139.1 | Here is the end of | choice. For here we come to a decision to accept ourselves as God |
| W1:139.1 | to a decision to accept ourselves as God created us. And what is | choice except uncertainty of what we are? There is no doubt that is |
| W1:152.1 | loss unless it be his own decision. No one suffers pain except his | choice elects this state for him. No one can grieve nor fear nor |
| W1:153.6 | the Christ in you. Perhaps you will recall the course maintains that | choice is always made between His strength and your own weakness seen |
| W1:155.2 | even here, then they step back and let it lead the way. What other | choice is really theirs to make? To let illusion walk ahead of truth |
| W1:155.3 | This is the simple | choice we make today. The mad illusion will remain awhile in evidence |
| W1:155.3 | to come and have not yet rejoiced to find they were mistaken in the | choice. They cannot learn directly from the truth because they have |
| W1:165.1 | illusion? What could keep from you what you already have except your | choice to see it not, denying it is there? |
| W1:170.9 | can also be the time of your release from abject slavery. You make a | choice, standing before this idol, seeing him exactly as he is. Will |
| W1:170.12 | The | choice you make today is certain. For you look for the last time upon |
| W1:170.12 | weight; beheld not in its sightless eyes but in the vision that your | choice restored to you. |
| W1:170.14 | what we have received from You alone. We choose again and make our | choice for all our brothers, knowing they are one with us. We bring |
| W1:R5.9 | now to lead you back to where the journey was begun, to make another | choice with me. |
| W1:185.9 | I would have, in place of Heaven and the peace of God?” This is the | choice you make. Be not deceived that it is otherwise. No compromise |
| W1:189.5 | What would you see? The | choice is given you. But learn and do not let your mind forget this |
| W1:189.9 | which we go to Him. But we do choose to let Him come. And with this | choice we rest. And in our quiet hearts and open minds His love will |
| W1:190.11 | And so again we make the only | choice that ever can be made—we choose between illusions and the |
| W1:193.10 | we are tempted to believe that pain is real and death becomes our | choice instead of life? Shall we not learn to say these words when we |
| W1:194.9 | to attack, we will appeal to Him Who guards our rest to make the | choice for us that leaves temptation far behind. No longer is the |
| W1:200.6 | worthy purpose? Who could hope for more while there appears to be a | choice to make between success and failure, love and fear? |
| W2:I.8 | its one Creator. We have found the way He chose for us and made the | choice to follow it as He would have us go. His hand has held us up. |
| W2:263.1 | dark and fearful images. A madman's dream is hardly fit to be my | choice instead of all the loveliness with which You blessed creation |
| W2:282.1 | while truth remains forever living in the joy of life. And this the | choice to recognize the Self Whom God created as the Son He loves and |
| W2:286.1 | the lesson that there is no need that I do anything. In You is every | choice already made. In You has every conflict been resolved. In You |
| W2:317.1 | until I take this part as what I choose to do. Until I make this | choice, I am the slave of time and human destiny. But when I |
| W2:329.1 | in my creation, where my will became forever one with Yours. That | choice was made for all eternity. It cannot change and be in |
| W2:334.1 | peace of God to all who hear and choose to follow Him. This is my | choice today. And so I go to find the treasures God has given me. |
| W2:335.1 | Forgiveness is a | choice. I never see my brother as he is, for that is far beyond |
| W2:351.1 | alone and friendless in a fearful world. Yet this perception is a | choice I make and can relinquish. I can also see my brother sinless |
| W2:351.1 | I can also see my brother sinless as Your holy Son. And with this | choice I see my sinlessness, my everlasting Comforter and Friend |
| W2:E.5 | We will be told exactly what God wills for us each time there is a | choice to make. And He will speak for God and for your Self, thus |
| W2:E.5 | Self, thus making sure that hell will claim you not and that each | choice you make brings Heaven nearer to your reach. And so we walk |
| M:I.2 | The question is not whether you will teach, for in that there is no | choice. The purpose of the course might be said to provide you with a |
| M:1.1 | consist solely in this; somehow, somewhere he has made a deliberate | choice in which he did not see his interests as apart from someone |
| M:1.4 | appointed to bring about. For time is in their hands. Such was their | choice, and it is given them. |
| M:2.1 | his role, they are ready to fulfill theirs. Time waits on his | choice but not whom he will serve. When he is ready to learn, the |
| M:2.4 | to the right place. This is inevitable, because he made the right | choice in that ancient instant which he now relives. So has the |

| Tx:7.83 | It therefore produces abundance or scarcity, depending on how you | choose to apply it. This choice is up to you, but it is not up to you |
| Tx:8.6 | but not to change. The volatile have no direction. They cannot | choose one because they cannot relinquish the other, even if the |
| Tx:8.20 | The goal of the curriculum, regardless of the teacher you | choose, is know thyself. There is nothing else to learn. Everyone is |
| Tx:8.30 | by believing that I know what to do. Only then will your mind | choose to follow me. Without your will, you cannot be rehabilitated. |
| Tx:8.32 | wait until you change your mind. I can teach you, but only you can | choose to listen to my teaching. How else can it be, if God's Kingdom |
| Tx:8.48 | that they can even imprison the mind of God's Son if they so | choose. This choice does make the Son's function unknown to him, but |
| Tx:9.47 | about you is so lofty that nothing unworthy of God is worthy of you. | Choose, then, what you want in these terms and accept nothing that |
| Tx:9.48 | of the ego is its alternative to the grandeur of God. Which will you | choose? |
| Tx:9.84 | he was made as God's replacement. He is the belief that you can | choose which god is real. Although it is perfectly clear that this |
| Tx:10.1 | “Who is my father?” And you will be faithful to the father you | choose. |
| Tx:10.20 | but you have allied yourself against Him. Whatever journey you | choose to take, He will go with you, waiting. You can safely trust |
| Tx:10.52 | recognize it, and he will not accept it. For only the insane would | choose fear in place of love, and only the insane could believe that |
| Tx:11.22 | You who have tried to banish love have not succeeded, but you who | choose to banish fear will succeed. The Lord is with you, but you |
| Tx:11.67 | projection, and you look in before you look out. As you look in you | choose the guide for seeing, and then you look out and behold his |
| Tx:12.46 | unless you are afraid of light. And only if you are would you | choose to bring this darkness with you, and by holding it in your |
| Tx:13.14 | not. When you condemn a brother, you are saying, “I who was guilty | choose to remain so.” You have denied his freedom, and by so doing |
| Tx:13.39 | your reactions to the Holy Spirit's Voice may be, whatever voice you | choose to listen to, whatever strange thoughts may occur to you, |
| Tx:13.53 | It deceives you because you chose to deceive yourselves. Those who | choose to be deceived will merely attack direct approaches, which |
| Tx:13.67 | I will make manifest. If I am guiltless, I have nothing to fear. I | choose to testify to my acceptance of the Atonement, not for its |
| Tx:13.70 | If he refuses it, he binds himself to darkness because he did not | choose to free his brother and enter light with him. By giving power |
| Tx:13.72 | God has given to His Son is his, and nothing else can His Son see or | choose to look upon without imposing on himself the penalty of guilt |
| Tx:14.35 | not through darkened corridors, away from light's center. You may | choose to lead yourselves astray, but you can only be brought |
| Tx:15.22 | choices open to your striving and your vigilance. You will always | choose one at the expense of the other. |
| Tx:15.23 | Yet what you do not realize each time you | choose is that your choice is your evaluation of yourself. Choose |
| Tx:15.23 | time you choose is that your choice is your evaluation of yourself. | Choose littleness and you will not have peace, for you will have |
| Tx:15.67 | your investment in it, to learn to let it go. No one would | choose to let go what he believes has value. Yet the attraction of |
| Tx:15.87 | for its purposes, and while you think it has a purpose, you will | choose to utilize the means by which it tries to turn its purpose |
| Tx:15.100 | you nothing. [Nor can you be partial host to it.] You will have to | choose between total freedom and total bondage, for there are no |
| Tx:16.79 | Remember that you always | choose between truth and illusion—between the real Atonement which |
| Tx:16.80 | with Him and to no other. The truth lies here and nowhere else. You | choose this or nothing. |
| Tx:17.25 | It is still up to you to | choose to be willing to join with truth or illusion. But remember |
| Tx:17.25 | to be willing to join with truth or illusion. But remember that to | choose one is to let the other go. Which one you choose you will |
| Tx:17.25 | remember that to choose one is to let the other go. Which one you | choose you will endow with beauty and reality because the choice |
| Tx:17.25 | illusion, freedom or slavery—it is all the same. For you can never | choose except between God and the ego. Thought systems are but true |
| Tx:17.38 | that is the gift. And only on this basis are you really free to | choose. Look at the pictures. Both of them. One is a tiny picture, |
| Tx:17.49 | only by getting rid of each other. You need not part entirely if you | choose not to do so. But you must exclude major areas of fantasy from |
| Tx:18.1 | has given you and would accomplish for you. To substitute is to | choose between, renouncing one in favor of the other. For this |
| Tx:18.48 | me. Yet it is wholly possible for us to share it now. And so I | choose this instant as the one to offer to the Holy Spirit, that His |
| Tx:19.10 | anything your brother has done before to condemn him now. You freely | choose to overlook his errors, looking past all barriers between your |
| Tx:19.99 | journey's end before you, you see its purpose. And it is here you | choose whether to look upon it or wander on, only to return and make |
| Tx:19.102 | his gift to you? Is this giver of salvation your friend or enemy? | Choose which he is, remembering that you will receive of him |
| Tx:19.109 | have been healed of pain. Everyone gives as he receives, but he must | choose what it will be that he receives. And he will recognize his |
| Tx:20.31 | Those who | choose freedom will experience only its results. Their power is of |
| Tx:20.49 | where love can never be. Would He Who sees the face of Christ | choose as His home the only place in all the universe where it can |
| Tx:20.56 | Here it is given him to | choose to spend this instant paying tribute to the body or let |
| Tx:20.75 | one is sin, the other holiness. Nothing is in between, and which you | choose determines what you see. For what you see is merely how you |
| Tx:21.13 | completely understood. Rejected yes, but not ambiguous. And if you | choose against it now, it will not be because it is obscure, but |
| Tx:21.33 | It is impossible that the Son of God lack faith, but he can | choose where he would have it be. Faithlessness is not a lack of |
| Tx:21.34 | means for what He wills for you. You made perception that you might | choose among your brothers and seek for sin with them. The Holy |
| Tx:21.36 | which follow this decision are also born of faith. For all who | choose to look away from sin are given vision and are led to holiness. |
| Tx:21.46 | the ego's madness and not been made afraid because you did not | choose to share in it. At times it still deceives you. Yet in your |
| Tx:21.49 | depends far more than you may realize as yet. For on the voice you | choose to hear and on the sights you choose to see, depends entirely |
| Tx:21.49 | as yet. For on the voice you choose to hear and on the sights you | choose to see, depends entirely your whole belief in what you are. |
| Tx:21.64 | If you | choose sin instead of healing, you would condemn the Son of God to |
| Tx:21.64 | can teach him only that he is as you would have him, and what you | choose he be is but your choice for you. Yet think not this is |
| Tx:21.65 | correction of his errors and make him whole. The instant that you | choose to let yourself be healed, in that same instant is his whole |
| Tx:21.80 | how it happens but not to why. You have control of this. And if you | choose to see a world without an enemy in which you are not helpless, |
| Tx:21.87 | question is necessary to the rest, as peace must come to those who | choose to heal and not to judge. |
| Tx:22.21 | is possible, but what you made believes it is not so. Now must you | choose between yourself and an illusion of yourself. Not both, but |
| Tx:22.22 | is no middle ground where you can pause uncertainly, waiting to | choose between the joy of Heaven and the misery of hell. Until you |
| Tx:22.22 | choose between the joy of Heaven and the misery of hell. Until you | choose Heaven, you are in hell and misery. |
| Tx:22.62 | And this is so because the universe is one. You would not | choose attack on its reality if it were not essential to attack to |
| Tx:23.52 | know well. When it occurs, leave not your place on high but quickly | choose a miracle instead of murder. And God Himself and all the |
| Tx:24.3 | the substitute for peace, come with the one alternative that you can | choose for love. Your choosing it has given it all the reality it |
| Tx:24.4 | leave it there. The secret enemies of peace, your least decision to | choose attack instead of love, unrecognized and swift to challenge |
| Tx:24.55 | Choose, then, his body or his holiness as what you want to see, and | |
| Tx:24.55 | his body or his holiness as what you want to see, and which you | choose is yours to look upon. Yet will you choose in countless |
| Tx:24.55 | to see, and which you choose is yours to look upon. Yet will you | choose in countless situations and through time which seems to have |
| Tx:25.17 | its purpose, and you do not make the frame into the picture when you | choose to see it in its place. The frame that God has given it but |
| Tx:25.27 | the body up instead of it. The lamps of Heaven are not for it to | choose to see them where it will. If it elects to see them elsewhere |
| Tx:25.86 | that you keep and hide become your secret sins because you did not | choose to let them be removed for you. And so they gather dust and |
| Tx:26.23 | world. For no one understands what is the same and seems to | choose where no choice really is. The real world is the area of |
| Tx:26.24 | recognition this is so lies the ability to give up all attempts to | choose between them and to make them different. [How simple is the |
| Tx:26.24 | withdrawn from what was never true, can it be hard to give it up and | choose what must be true? |
| Tx:26.30 | never will another road be made except the way to Heaven. You but | choose whether to go toward Heaven or away to nowhere. There is |
| Tx:26.30 | to go toward Heaven or away to nowhere. There is nothing else to | choose. |
| Tx:26.34 | knowledge of the Son of God can hardly still be there for you to | choose to be your teacher. Only in the past—an ancient past, too |
| Tx:26.44 | can make one illusion real and still escape the rest. For who can | choose to keep the ones which he prefers and find the safety that the |
| Tx:26.65 | him free. But it is arrogant to lay aside the power that He gave and | choose a little senseless wish instead of what He wills. The gift of |
| Tx:27.10 | nothing yet, its purpose being open and the mind made free again to | choose what it is for. Now is it not condemned, but waiting for a |
| Tx:27.39 | “Which sin do you prefer? That is the one which you should | choose. The others are not true. What can the body get that you would |
| Tx:27.56 | to use when you call forth the witnesses to its reality. You cannot | choose among them which are real, for any one you choose is like the |
| Tx:27.56 | You cannot choose among them which are real, for any one you | choose is like the rest. This name or that, but nothing more, you |
| Tx:27.56 | choose is like the rest. This name or that, but nothing more, you | choose. You do not make a witness true because you called him by |
| Tx:27.65 | it in another's hand if he would be a victim of attack he did not | choose. And thus he suffers from the wounds a knife he does not hold |
| Tx:27.69 | for him. He becomes a part of someone else's dream. He cannot | choose to waken from a dream he did not make. Helpless he stands, a |
| Tx:27.70 | is the only picture you can see, the one alternative that you can | choose, the other possibility of cause if you be not the dreamer of |
| Tx:27.70 | cause if you be not the dreamer of your dreams. And this is what you | choose if you deny the cause of suffering is in your mind. Be glad |
| Tx:27.70 | dreams of evil or a happy wakening and joy of life. What could you | choose between but life or death, waking or sleeping, peace or war, |
| Tx:27.70 | is really given you, then you must see the causes of the things you | choose between exactly as they are and where they are. What choices |
| Tx:27.70 | states, but one of which is clearly recognized? Who could be free to | choose between effects when only one is seen as up to him? |
| Tx:27.89 | They seem to keep it secret from you. Yet you need but learn you | choose but not to listen, not to see. How differently will you |
| Tx:29.22 | as heavy shadows must give way to light. The darkness cannot | choose that it remain. The coming of the light means it is gone. In |
| Tx:29.49 | what is within by splitting what you are between the two. You | choose your dreams, for they are what you wish, perceived as if it |
| Tx:30.29 | decisions by yourself. The only question really is with what you | choose to make them. That is really all. The first rule, then, is not |
| Tx:30.29 | with God. And you ask help of Christ or anti-Christ, and which you | choose will join with you and tell you what to do. |
| Tx:30.30 | Your day is not at random. It is set by what you | choose to live it with and how the friend whose counsel you have |
| Tx:30.34 | be free. And to oppose Him is to make a choice against yourself and | choose that you be bound. |
| Tx:30.68 | Be merciful unto your brother, then. And do not | choose an idol thoughtlessly, remembering that he will pay the cost |
| Tx:30.92 | But there is no miracle that can be given you unless you want it. | Choose what you would heal, and He Who gives all miracles has not |
| Tx:31.15 | What you would | choose between is not a choice and gives but the illusion it is free, |
| Tx:31.17 | you want of him? Herein is life as easily as death, for what you | choose, you choose as well for him. Two calls you make to him, as he |
| Tx:31.17 | of him? Herein is life as easily as death, for what you choose, you | choose as well for him. Two calls you make to him, as he to you. |
| Tx:31.33 | for you alone, a time when everyone conflicts with you, but you can | choose which road will lead you out of conflict and away from |
| Tx:31.33 | What must go with you, you will take with you whatever road you | choose to walk along. |
| Tx:31.40 | is reached, you have no choice, and you can but decide how you would | choose the better to deceive yourself again. This course attempts to |
| Tx:31.40 | and the same mistake. All choices in the world depend on this—you | choose between your brother and yourself, and you will gain as much |
| Tx:31.50 | single aim of teaching you this concept of yourself, that you will | choose to follow this world's laws and never seek to go beyond its |
| Tx:31.54 | you are what you chose your brother be, alternatives were there to | choose among, and someone must have first decided on the one to |
| Tx:31.54 | to choose among, and someone must have first decided on the one to | choose and let the others go. |
| Tx:31.62 | what you are, as flesh or Spirit in your own belief. If you | choose flesh, you never will escape the body as your own reality, for |
| Tx:31.62 | as your own reality, for you have chosen that you want it so. But | choose the Spirit, and all Heaven bends to touch your eyes and bless |
| Tx:31.63 | Salvation is undoing. If you | choose to see the body, you behold a world of separation, unrelated |
| Tx:31.65 | really be. It makes no difference what you look upon nor what you | choose to feel or think or wish. For God Himself has said, “Your will |
| Tx:31.66 | You who believe that you can | choose to see the Son of God as you would have him be, forget not |
| Tx:31.69 | with his, because you let them all affect you not. No longer did you | choose that you should be the sign of evil and of guilt in him. And |
| Tx:31.73 | of deep depression and futility. Yet it need not be fixed unless you | choose to hold it past the hope of change and keep it static and |
| Tx:31.81 | This is temptation, nothing more than this. Can this be difficult to | choose against? Consider what temptation is, and see the real |
| Tx:31.81 | Consider what temptation is, and see the real alternatives you | choose between. There are but two. Be not deceived by what appears as |
| Tx:31.81 | appears as many choices. There is hell or Heaven, and of these you | choose but one. |
| Tx:31.84 | Choose once again if you would take your place among the saviors of | |
| Tx:31.86 | How do you make the choice? How easily is this explained! You always | choose between your weakness and the strength of Christ in you. And |
| Tx:31.86 | your weakness and the strength of Christ in you. And what you | choose is what you think is real. Simply by never using weakness to |
| Tx:31.87 | each perplexity Christ calls to you and gently says, “My brother, | choose again.” He would not leave one source of pain unhealed nor any |
| Tx:31.88 | fearful of temptation then, but see it as it is—another chance to | choose again and let Christ's strength prevail in every circumstance |
| Tx:31.92 | dreams of weakness, opening the way to his salvation and release. | Choose once again what you would have him be, remembering that every |
| Tx:31.94 | and in His certainty I rest content. For you will hear, and you will | choose again. And in this choice is everyone made free. |
| Tx:31.95 | on their behalf. And as I would but do Your holy Will, so will they | choose. And I give thanks for them. Salvation's song will echo |
| W1:32.5 | either your inner or outer world. It does not matter which you | choose. |
| W1:44.7 | sinking past them. Your mind cannot be stopped in this unless you | choose to stop it. It is merely taking its natural course. Try to |
| W1:51.5 | that my thoughts do not mean anything and to let them go. I | choose to have them be replaced by what they were intended to |
| W1:52.5 | or not. What I have chosen to see has cost me vision. Now I would | choose again that I may see. |
| W1:53.3 | this world is not real and that I need not see it at all unless I | choose to value it. And I do not choose to value what is totally |
| W1:53.3 | I need not see it at all unless I choose to value it. And I do not | choose to value what is totally insane and has no meaning. |
| W1:53.4 | illusion of reality, and have suffered from my belief in it. Now I | choose to withdraw this belief and place my trust in reality. In |
| W1:55.4 | I will see a world of peace and safety and joy. It is this I | choose to see in place of what I look on now. |
| W1:57.2 | can I be the victim of a world that can be completely undone if I so | choose? My chains are loosened. I can drop them off merely by |
| W1:59.4 | see anything else. Beyond His Will lie only illusions. It is these I | choose when I think I can see apart from Him. It is these I choose |
| W1:59.4 | these I choose when I think I can see apart from Him. It is these I | choose when I try to see through the body's eyes. Yet the vision of |
| W1:59.4 | has been given me to replace them. It is through this vision that I | choose to see. |
| W1:64.5 | There is no other way. Therefore every time you | choose whether or not to fulfill your function, you are really |
| W1:66.9 | Spirit, where truth abides. There are no other guides but these to | choose between and no other outcomes possible as a result of your |
| W1:73.9 | the insane belief that it is hell in place of Heaven that you | choose. |
| W1:78.6 | You know the one to | choose; his name has crossed your mind already. He will be the one of |
| W1:88.2 | light has come. In choosing salvation rather than attack, I merely | choose to recognize what is already here. Salvation is a decision |
| W1:88.2 | is a decision made already. Attack and grievances are not there to | choose. That is why I always choose between truth and illusion, |
| W1:88.2 | Attack and grievances are not there to choose. That is why I always | choose between truth and illusion, between what is there and what is |
| W1:88.2 | between what is there and what is not. The light has come. I can but | choose the light, for it has no alternative. It has replaced the |
| W1:91.5 | the strength to do what it desires. You can escape the body if you | choose. You can experience the strength in you. |
| W1:98.4 | answer it, when they have come to make their choice again. We do not | choose but for ourselves today. |
| W1:100.2 | God's Will for you is perfect happiness. Why should you | choose to go against His Will? The part that He has saved for you to |
| W1:117.2 | me remember love is happiness and nothing else brings joy. And so I | choose to entertain no substitutes for love. |
| W1:125.7 | silence, give ten minutes set apart from listening to the world and | choose instead a gentle listening to the Word of God. He speaks from |
| W1:126.5 | dependably and sure. It is an eccentricity in which you sometimes | choose to give indulgently an undeserved reprieve. Yet it remains |
| W1:129.6 | This world holds nothing that you really want, but what you | choose instead you want indeed! Let it be given you today. It waits |
| W1:129.8 | Beyond this world there is a world I want. I | choose to see that world instead of this, for here is nothing that I |
| W1:130.2 | Who can desire what he does not want to have reality? And who can | choose to see a world of which he is afraid? Fear must make blind, |
| W1:130.5 | your decision cannot go. The real and the unreal are all there is to | choose between, and nothing more than these. |
| W1:131.4 | unless you give it power to do so. Otherwise, you still are free to | choose a goal that lies beyond the world and every worldly thought |
| W1:131.10 | Today we will not | choose a paradox in place of truth. How could the Son of God make |
| W1:132.21 | I loose the world from all I thought it was and | choose my own reality instead. |
| W1:133.4 | cannot make, no more than you can make alternatives from which to | choose. The choosing you can do; indeed you must. But it is wise to |
| W1:133.4 | must. But it is wise to learn the laws you set in motion when you | choose and what alternatives you choose between. We have already |
| W1:133.4 | the laws you set in motion when you choose and what alternatives you | choose between. We have already stressed there are but two, however |
| W1:133.7 | First, if you | choose a thing that will not last forever, what you chose is |
| W1:133.8 | Next, if you | choose to take a thing away from someone else, you will have nothing |
| W1:134.17 | Then | choose one brother as He will direct, and catalogue his “sins,” as |
| W1:136.3 | seem to be unconscious but because of the rapidity with which you | choose to use them. In that second, even less, in which the choice is |
| W1:136.12 | it. And Heaven has not bowed to hell, nor life to death. You can but | choose to think you die or suffer sickness or distort the truth in |
| W1:136.15 | to play with folly. It is found at any time—today, if you will | choose to practice giving welcome to the truth. This is our aim |
| W1:138.1 | Heaven is a choice because here we believe there are alternatives to | choose between. We think that all things have an opposite, and what |
| W1:138.1 | We think that all things have an opposite, and what we want we | choose. If Heaven exists, there must be hell as well, for |
| W1:138.4 | for truth is true and nothing else is real. There is no opposite to | choose instead. There is no contradiction to the truth. |
| W1:138.10 | Who hesitates to make a choice like this? And shall we hesitate to | choose today? |
| W1:152.1 | occurs but represents your wish, and nothing is omitted that you | choose. Here is your world, complete in all details. Here is its |
| W1:153.11 | It is the function of God's ministers to help their brothers | choose as they have done. God has elected all, but few have come to |
| W1:154.7 | and show they understand the messages by giving them away. They | choose no roles that are not given them by His authority. And so they |
| W1:155.2 | The world is an illusion. Those who | choose to come to it are seeking for a place where they can be |
| W1:155.12 | He has always been. What way but this could be a path that you would | choose instead? |
| W1:156.3 | is part of Holiness and could no more be sinful than the sun could | choose to be of ice, the sea elect to be apart from water, or the |
| W1:170.14 | And we bless the world with what we have received from You alone. We | choose again and make our choice for all our brothers, knowing they |
| W1:185.9 | that it is otherwise. No compromise is possible in this. You | choose God's peace, or you have asked for dreams. And dreams will |
| W1:187.7 | of suffering. Your blessing lies on everyone who suffers when you | choose to see all suffering as what it is. The thought of sacrifice |
| W1:188.9 | to us. For it is we who make the world as we would have it. Now we | choose that it be innocent, devoid of sin, and open to salvation. And |
| W1:189.9 | And so today we do not | choose the way in which we go to Him. But we do choose to let Him |
| W1:189.9 | so today we do not choose the way in which we go to Him. But we do | choose to let Him come. And with this choice we rest. And in our |
| W1:190.6 | And it will change entirely as you elect to change your mind and | choose the joy of God as what you really want. Your Self is radiant |
| W1:190.11 | And so again we make the only choice that ever can be made—we | choose between illusions and the truth, or pain and joy, or hell and |
| W1:190.11 | Let our gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are free to | choose our joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, the |
| W1:192.9 | hold a sword above your head. And it will fall or be averted as you | choose to be condemned or free. Thus does each one who seems to tempt |
| W1:194.7 | may be faulty but will never lack correction. He is free to | choose again when he has been deceived, to change his mind when he |
| W1:195.8 | now undone at last, and we forgive without comparing. Thus we cannot | choose to overlook some things and yet retain some other things still |
| W1:R6.9 | This thought I do not want. I | choose instead…. |
| W1:202.1 | [182] I will be still a moment and go home. Why would I | choose to stay an instant more where I do not belong, when God |
| W1:210.1 | [190] I | choose the joy of God instead of pain. Pain is my own idea. It is not |
| W1:210.1 | Will. His Will is joy and only joy for His beloved Son. And that I | choose instead of what I made. I am not a body. I am free. For I am |
| W1:213.1 | hurt me. What I learn of Him becomes the way I am set free. And so I | choose to learn His lessons and forget my own. I am not a body. I am |
| W2:226.1 | If I so | choose, I can depart this world entirely. It is not death which makes |
| W2:246.2 | I will accept the way You | choose for me to come to You, my Father. For in that will I succeed |
| W2:246.2 | that what You will is what I will as well and only that. And so I | choose to love Your Son. Amen. |
| W2:254.2 | go. We do not want what they would bring with them. And so we do not | choose to keep them. They are silent now. And in the stillness, |
| W2:255.1 | It does not seem to me that I can | choose to have but peace today. And yet my God assures me that His |
| W2:255.1 | day have faith in Him Who says I am God's Son. And let the peace I | choose be mine today bear witness to the truth of what He says. God's |
| W2:255.2 | You. The peace You gave him still is in his mind, and it is there I | choose to spend today. |
| W2:256.1 | forgiven him in whom all sin remains impossible, and it is this we | choose to dream today. God is our goal; forgiveness is the means by |
| W2:261.2 | me not seek for idols. I would come, my Father, home to You today. I | choose to be as You created me and find the Son whom You created as |
| W2:269.1 | I ask for the illusion which transcends all those I made. Today I | choose to see a world forgiven in which everyone shows me the face of |
| W2:271.1 | hear, the witnesses to what I want to be the truth for me. Today I | choose to look upon what Christ would have me see, to listen to God's |
| W2:271.2 | What He beholds invites Your memory to be restored to me. And this I | choose to be what I would look upon today. |
| W2:278.2 | brought a dream of fear into my mind. Today I would not dream. I | choose the way to You instead of madness and instead of fear. For |
| W2:WIRW.3 | surrounding it but safety, love, and joy? What is there it would | choose to be condemned, and what is there that it would judge |
| W2:314.2 | Father, we were mistaken in the past and | choose to use the present to be free. Now do we leave the future in |
| W2:317.1 | role for me alone. Salvation waits until I take this part as what I | choose to do. Until I make this choice, I am the slave of time and |
| W2:317.2 | Father, Your way is what I | choose today. Where it would lead me, do I choose to go; what it |
| W2:317.2 | Father, Your way is what I choose today. Where it would lead me, do I | choose to go; what it would have me do, I choose to do. Your way is |
| W2:317.2 | it would lead me, do I choose to go; what it would have me do, I | choose to do. Your way is certain and the end secure. The memory of |
| W2:324.1 | every step in my appointed path. I cannot lose the way. I can but | choose to wander off a while and then return. Your loving Voice will |
| W2:330.1 | which God created cannot sin and therefore cannot suffer. Let us | choose today that He be our Identity and thus escape forever from all |
| W2:334.1 | today. God's Voice is offering the peace of God to all who hear and | choose to follow Him. This is my choice today. And so I go to find |
| W2:335.1 | respond, however much I seem to be impelled by outside happenings. I | choose to see what I would look upon, and this I see and only this. |
| W2:347.1 | my mind, my Father. It is sick. But You have offered freedom, and I | choose to claim Your gift today. And so I give all judgment to the |
| W2:348.2 | suffices us in everything that He would have us do. And only that we | choose to be our will, as well as His. |
| W2:351.1 | Comforter and Friend beside me, and my way secure and clear. | Choose, then, for me, my Father, through Your Voice. For He alone |
| W2:355.1 | I need not wait an instant more to be at peace forever. It is You I | choose and my Identity along with You. Your Son would be Himself and |
| M:2.3 | is free, you can accept what has already happened at any time you | choose, and only then will you realize that it was always there. As |
| M:2.3 | it was always there. As the course emphasizes, you are not free to | choose the curriculum or even the form in which you will learn it. |
| M:4.12 | They can only succeed because they never do their will alone. They | choose for all mankind, for all the world and all things in it, for |
| M:4.12 | for the Son of God and his Creator. How could they not succeed? They | choose in perfect honesty, sure of their choice themselves. |
| M:4.15 | Who chooses hell when he perceives a way to Heaven? And who would | choose the weakness that must come from harm in place of the |
| M:5.2 | the instant the sufferer no longer sees any value in pain. Who would | choose suffering unless he thought it brought him something, and |
| M:5.9 | death. Behold, you Son of God, what life can offer you. Would you | choose sickness in place of this? |
| M:10.4 | you were right, without ever realizing you were wrong? Why would you | choose such an arbitrary basis for decision-making? Wisdom is not |

| Tx:24.31 | of your specialness. Here is the hell you chose to be your home. He | chose not this for you. Ask not He enter this. The way is barred to |
| Tx:25.33 | wish that makes it what it is in its effects on you. Because you | chose it as a means to gain these same effects, believing them to be |
| Tx:25.40 | death to you. In everyone you see but the reflection of what you | chose to have him be to you. If you decide against his proper |
| Tx:25.48 | does all the plan depend. He has a special part in time, for so he | chose, and choosing it, he made it for himself. His wish was not |
| Tx:25.48 | He has the means for either, as he always did. The specialness he | chose to hurt himself did God appoint to be the means for his |
| Tx:25.57 | sane as He to raise a saner world to meet the sight of everyone who | chose insanity as his salvation. To this One is given the choice of |
| Tx:25.59 | The One Who speaks for Him can show you this in the alternative He | chose especially for you. It is God's Will that you remember this and |
| Tx:26.40 | is as free as God created him. He was reborn the instant that he | chose to die instead of live. And will you not forgive him now |
| Tx:27.61 | of sin to be applied to you. And truth will be revealed to you who | chose to let love's symbols take the place of sin. |
| Tx:30.35 | Look once again upon your enemy, the one you | chose to hate instead of love. For thus was hatred born into the |
| Tx:30.37 | decided with him, he is healed. And now is God forgiven, for you | chose to look upon your brother as a friend. |
| Tx:30.92 | he denies reality. And he becomes the willing slave of what he | chose instead. |
| Tx:31.30 | the body be the source of sin and keep it in the prison-house it | chose and guard and hold itself at bay, a sleeping prisoner to the |
| Tx:31.54 | the thing that you must be. You might for instance be the thing you | chose to have your brother be. This shifts the concept of the self |
| Tx:31.54 | must have entered in. There is some understanding that you | chose for both of you, and what he represents has meaning that was |
| Tx:31.54 | Yet who was it that did the choosing first? If you are what you | chose your brother be, alternatives were there to choose among, and |
| Tx:31.55 | for what your brother is. And you must share his guilt because you | chose it for him in the image of your own. While only he was |
| Tx:31.63 | has released from looking at the cost of keeping guilt because they | chose to let it go instead. |
| Tx:31.87 | now can make a better one and thus escape all pain which what you | chose before has brought to you. In every difficulty, all distress, |
| Tx:31.88 | The saviors of the world who see like Him are merely those who | chose His strength instead of their own weakness, seen apart from |
| W1:60.3 | stirring of His strength in me. And I begin to remember the love I | chose to forget, but Which has not forgotten me. |
| W1:106.6 | be given unto you. And you will learn your function from the One Who | chose it in your Father's Name for you. |
| W1:131.7 | from time as is a tiny candle from a distant star, or what you | chose from what you really want. |
| W1:133.7 | First, if you choose a thing that will not last forever, what you | chose is valueless. A temporary value is without all value. Time can |
| W1:133.12 | do not realize there are but two. And the alternative you think you | chose seems fearful and too dangerous to be the nothingness it |
| W1:138.12 | sanity. And finally we close the day with this, acknowledging we | chose but what we want: |
| W1:153.18 | to the world. Think you He will not make this possible for you who | chose to carry out His plan for the salvation of the world and yours? |
| W1:155.3 | illusion will remain awhile in evidence for those to look upon who | chose to come and have not yet rejoiced to find they were mistaken in |
| W1:166.6 | Yet is he really tragic when you see that he is following the way he | chose and needs but realize Who walks with him and open up his |

| W1:166.13 | The gifts are yours, entrusted to your care to give to all who | chose the lonely road you have escaped. They do not understand they |

chosen (107) | ||
| Tx:1.70 | The miracle is thus a sign that the mind has | chosen to be led by Christ in His service. The abundance of Christ is |
| Tx:4.2 | ego, precisely as you choose. If you speak from the Soul, you have | chosen “to be still and know that I am God.” These words are inspired |
| Tx:4.16 | God is not the author of fear. You are. You have | chosen, therefore, to create unlike Him, and you have made fear for |
| Tx:4.16 | meeting. You know this, and you are afraid. In fact, your egos have | chosen to be afraid instead of meeting it. When you awaken you will |
| Tx:4.18 | Only God could make a home that is worthy of His creations, who have | chosen to leave it empty by their own dispossession. Yet His home |
| Tx:4.57 | you can change your mind. When your mood tells you that you have | chosen wrongly, and this is so whenever you are not joyous, then know |
| Tx:4.74 | Indeed, many of the things you want to learn are | chosen because their value will not last. The ego thinks it is an |
| Tx:4.89 | not always be that way. Your mission is very simple. You have been | chosen to live so as to demonstrate that you are not an ego. I repeat |
| Tx:4.89 | my part in it as a man and can now complete it through other men. My | chosen receiving and sending channels cannot fail because I will lend |
| Tx:4.104 | it is afraid of its own weakness as well as the weakness of its | chosen home. When it is threatened, the ego blocks your natural |
| Tx:5.21 | it implies that there is a right way and also a wrong way, one to be | chosen and the other to be avoided. By choosing one, you give up the |
| Tx:5.22 | The Holy Spirit calls you both to remember and to forget. You have | chosen to be in a state of opposition in which opposites are |
| Tx:6.3 | You have been | chosen to teach the Atonement precisely because you have been extreme |
| Tx:6.12 | disciples. Disciples are followers, but if the model they follow has | chosen to save them pain in all respects, they are probably unwise |
| Tx:6.50 | as part of Him. Nothing else exists, and only this is real. You have | chosen a sleep in which you have had bad dreams, but the sleep is not |
| Tx:6.68 | but it is necessary that you turn in that direction. Having | chosen to go that way, you place yourself in charge of the journey, |
| Tx:6.69 | taken the first step, however, they will be helped. Once they have | chosen what they cannot complete alone, they are no longer alone. |
| Tx:6.79 | it means that alternatives have been considered and one has been | chosen as more desirable. |
| Tx:7.11 | “the freedoms,” which would indeed have been freedom if man had not | chosen to fight for them. That is why they perceive “the freedoms” as |
| Tx:7.110 | Heaven to yourselves. I call upon you again to remember that I have | chosen you to teach the Kingdom to the Kingdom. There are no |
| Tx:8.40 | to its retaliation, because I am with you. On this journey, you have | chosen me as your companion instead of the ego. Do not try to hold on |
| Tx:9.43 | be judged as insane. With the grandeur of God in you, you have | chosen to be little and to lament your littleness. Within the system |
| Tx:9.83 | fear is not due them either, for nothing cannot be fearful. You have | chosen to fear love because of its perfect harmlessness, and because |
| Tx:10.58 | what you want to perceive and of the reality of the kingdom you have | chosen for your vigilance. Everything you perceive is a witness to |
| Tx:11.50 | weakened your mind that you cannot love, for the curriculum you have | chosen is against love and amounts to a course in how to attack |
| Tx:13.51 | are his beliefs. And it is these, and not the truth, that he has | chosen to defend and love. They will not be taken from him. But they |
| Tx:13.69 | The miracle teaches you that you have | chosen guiltlessness, freedom, and joy. It is not a cause, but an |
| Tx:14.54 | a cohesive system impossible. Separation therefore remains the ego's | chosen condition. For no one alone can judge the ego truly. Yet when |
| Tx:15.19 | the ego or the Holy Spirit in you. And you will know which you have | chosen by their reactions. A Son of God who has been released through |
| Tx:15.48 | made, the Holy Spirit uses special relationships, which you have | chosen to support the ego, as a learning experience which points to |
| Tx:15.69 | from his holy mind. For the chain of savagery belongs not around the | chosen host of God, who cannot make himself host to the ego. In the |
| Tx:16.27 | to learn and make learning commensurate with teaching. You have | chosen this by your own willingness to teach. Though you seemed to |
| Tx:16.55 | of death delights you can bring death to the eternal. Nor can your | chosen substitute for the wholeness of God have any influence at all |
| Tx:17.51 | you will remember a goal unchanged throughout eternity? For you have | chosen but the goal of God from which your true intent was never |
| Tx:18.23 | Yet Heaven is sure. This is no dream. Its coming means that you have | chosen truth, and it has come because you have been willing to let |
| Tx:18.26 | If you knew Who walks beside you on this way which you have | chosen, fear would be impossible. You do not know because the journey |
| Tx:19.93 | You are no more afraid of death than of the ego. These are your | chosen friends. For in your secret alliance with them, you have |
| Tx:20.6 | And every gift it offers depends on what it wants. It will adorn its | chosen home most carefully, making it ready to receive the gifts it |
| Tx:20.6 | the gifts it wants by offering them to those who come unto its | chosen home or those it would attract to it. And there they will |
| Tx:20.7 | an evaluation of the receiver and the giver. No one but sees in his | chosen home an altar to himself. No one but seeks to draw to it the |
| Tx:20.8 | the Son of God as whole. But look you first upon the altar in your | chosen home and see what you have laid upon it to offer me. If it be |
| Tx:20.8 | whose points gleam sharply in a blood-red light, the body is your | chosen home, and it is separation that you offer me. And yet the |
| Tx:20.11 | nails to crucify the Son of God and crown him king of death. Your | chosen home is on the other side, beyond the veil. It has been |
| Tx:20.48 | not seek for power, but for relationships. The body is the ego's | chosen weapon for seeking power through relationships. And its |
| Tx:20.62 | is always secondary to desire. And if you see the body, you have | chosen judgment and not vision. For vision, like relationships, has |
| Tx:20.70 | on the truth? How can the engine of destruction be preferred and | chosen to replace the holy home the Holy Spirit offers, where He will |
| Tx:22.15 | faith in Him. You are indeed correct in looking on each other as His | chosen home, for here you will with Him and with His Father. This is |
| Tx:22.39 | the first few steps along the right way that seem hard, for you have | chosen, although you still may think you can go back and make the |
| Tx:22.52 | Where freedom of the body has been | chosen, the mind is used as means whose value lies in its ability to |
| Tx:22.54 | a light far brighter than the sun which lights the sky you see, is | chosen of your Father as a means for His own plan. Be thankful that |
| Tx:23.9 | have no meaning. For your beliefs converge upon the body, the ego's | chosen home, which you believe is yours. You meet at a mistake—an |
| Tx:23.51 | different. Here in the midst of it, it does seem real. Here you have | chosen to be part of it. Here murder is your choice. Yet from above, |
| Tx:23.52 | of Heaven will gently lean to you and hold you up. For you have | chosen to remain where He would have you, and no illusion can attack |
| Tx:24.12 | And always whom it thus diminishes would be your savior, had you not | chosen to make of him a tiny measure of your specialness instead. |
| Tx:25.31 | recognize that in this choice the purpose of the world you see is | chosen and will be justified. |
| Tx:25.32 | the hope of change unless the aim is changed. And then the means are | chosen once again, as what will bring rejoicing is defined another |
| Tx:26.30 | who point in different ways. And you will go along the way your | chosen teacher leads. There are but two directions you can take while |
| Tx:26.77 | And never will you know He is in you as well, while you attack His | chosen home and battle with His host. Regard him gently. Look with |
| Tx:27.33 | power known as wholly free of limits. Yet it sets no limits you have | chosen to impose. Forgiveness is the means by which the truth is |
| Tx:28.63 | be sick. It will not join a purpose not your own, and you have | chosen that it not be sick. All miracles are based upon this choice |
| Tx:29.10 | is no loss, you will have some regrets about the way that you have | chosen. And you will not see the many gains your choice has offered |
| Tx:30.34 | you are not free. And would God leave His Son without what he has | chosen for himself? God but ensured that you would never lose your |
| Tx:31.7 | learning can produce. However much you may have overlearned your | chosen task, the lesson which reflects the love of God is stronger |
| Tx:31.17 | be the leader or the follower to you, it matters not, for you have | chosen death. But if he calls for death or calls for life, for hate |
| Tx:31.31 | to what you have escaped. You will not want to hold in guilt your | chosen enemies nor keep in chains to the illusion of a changing love |
| Tx:31.62 | you never will escape the body as your own reality, for you have | chosen that you want it so. But choose the Spirit, and all Heaven |
| W1:28.7 | you see in looking about you. Not only should the subjects be | chosen randomly, but each one should be accorded equal sincerity as |
| W1:29.4 | with repeating the idea to yourself, and then apply it to randomly | chosen subjects about you, naming each one specifically. Try to avoid |
| W1:52.5 | the past or the present: it is whether to see or not. What I have | chosen to see has cost me vision. Now I would choose again that I may |
| W1:72.8 | you may not hear the Voice of truth and welcome it as Friend. Your | chosen savior takes His place instead. It is your friend; He is your |
| W1:R3.7 | and confidence and faith. It will not fail. It is the Holy Spirit's | chosen means for your salvation. Since it has His trust, His means |
| W1:121.10 | It does not matter what the form your anger takes. You probably have | chosen him already. He will do. |
| W1:138.9 | Heaven is | chosen consciously. The choice cannot be made until alternatives are |
| W1:153.9 | of our safety now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill our | chosen purpose as our ministry extends its holy blessing through the |
| W1:153.10 | secure you rest, untouchable within its light. God's ministers have | chosen that the truth be with them. Who is holier than they? Who |
| W1:153.10 | What defense could possibly be needed by the ones who are among the | chosen ones of God by His election and their own as well? |
| W1:154.5 | Nor does he question the right of him who does nor ask why he has | chosen those who will receive the message that he brings. It is |
| W1:155.4 | as if it asked the sacrifice of something that is real. Many have | chosen to renounce the world while still believing its reality, and |
| W1:155.4 | a sense of loss and have not been released accordingly. Others have | chosen nothing but the world, and they have suffered from a sense of |
| W1:166.7 | This is your | chosen self, the one you made as a replacement for reality. This is |
| W1:170.12 | it god no longer. You have reached this place before, but you have | chosen that this cruel god remain with you in still another form, and |
| W1:170.13 | echoes His. And now your heart remains at peace forever. You have | chosen Him in place of idols, and your attributes, given by your |
| W1:194.9 | temptation far behind. No longer is the world our enemy, for we have | chosen that we be its friends. |
| W2:WF.2 | What can come between a fixed projection and the aim that it has | chosen as its needed goal? |
| W2:WF.3 | goal, twisting and overturning what it sees as interfering with its | chosen path. Distortion is its purpose and the means by which it |
| W2:WIS.2 | body serves a different aim for striving. What it seeks for now is | chosen by the aim the mind has taken as replacement for the goal of |
| W2:254.2 | by His Love, God speaks to us and tells us of our will, as we have | chosen to remember Him. |
| W2:257.2 | Father, forgiveness is Your | chosen means for our salvation. Let us not forget that we can have no |
| W2:269.1 | I ask Your blessing on my sight today. It is the means which You have | chosen to become the way to show me my mistakes and look beyond them. |
| W2:272.2 | we, the Sons of God, could be content with dreams when Heaven can be | chosen just as easily as hell and love will happily replace all fear. |
| W2:275.1 | lesson, no more true today than any other day. Yet has this day been | chosen as the time when we will seek and hear and learn and |
| W2:286.1 | quietly do all things fall in place! This is the day that has been | chosen as the time in which I come to understand the lesson that |
| W2:310.1 | This day, my Father, would I spend with You, as You have | chosen all my days should be. And what I will experience is not of |
| W2:312.1 | to overlook what you would see and fail to see what you have | chosen to behold. How surely, therefore, must the real world come to |
| W2:335.1 | shows me that I would look upon my own. And I will see it, having | chosen to behold my brother in its holy light. |
| W2:349.1 | I would find and make my own. It will be given me because I have | chosen it as the gift I want to give. Father, Your gifts are mine. |
| M:I.5 | a source of strength and truth forever. Who are they? How are they | chosen? What do they do? How can they work out their own salvation |
| M:2.1 | begin to look for him as soon as he has answered the Call. They were | chosen for him, because the form of the universal curriculum that he |
| M:2.1 | coming is certain. Again, it is only a matter of time. Once he has | chosen to fulfill his role, they are ready to fulfill theirs. Time |
| M:3.5 | are teaching-learning situations in which each person is given a | chosen learning partner who presents him with unlimited opportunities |
| M:5.8 | understand what healing is. These patients do not realize they have | chosen sickness. On the contrary, they believe that sickness has |
| M:5.8 | chosen sickness. On the contrary, they believe that sickness has | chosen them. Nor are they open-minded on this point. The body tells |
| M:10.5 | along with judgment. He gave himself to Him Whose judgment he has | chosen now to trust instead of his own. Now he makes no mistakes. His |
| M:17.2 | his gift most clearly given him. For he will give only what he has | chosen for himself. And in this gift is his judgment upon the holy |
| M:21.4 | use words in a new way. Gradually, he learns how to let his words be | chosen for him by ceasing to decide for himself what he will say. |

| Tx:10.37 | Himself, and He is approached through the appreciation of His Son. | Christ waits for your acceptance of Him as yourself and of His |

| Tx:11.59 | Father's love for Him. When the Holy Spirit has at last led you to | Christ at the altar to His Father, perception fuses into knowledge |
| Tx:11.72 | look upon the world as God created it together. Through the eyes of | Christ, only the real world exists and can be seen. As you decide, so |
| Tx:11.82 | nothing real to you, you have seen it. But it is not there. And | Christ is invisible to you because of what you have made visible to |
| Tx:11.84 | the world you made and which you see. But take it from the hand of | Christ and look upon it. Its reality will make everything else |
| Tx:11.89 | cannot coexist, and to accept one is to deny the other. Guilt hides | Christ from your sight, for it is the denial of the blamelessness of |
| Tx:11.90 | which you accepted, and you hold it dear. For the blamelessness of | Christ is the proof that the ego never was and can never be. Without |
| Tx:12.38 | hear, for you are preoccupied with your own voice. And the vision of | Christ is not in your sight, for you look upon yourself alone. |
| Tx:12.42 | Beyond this darkness and yet still within you is the vision of | Christ, Who looks on all in light. Your vision comes from fear, as |
| Tx:12.44 | The Holy Spirit is the light in which | Christ stands revealed. And all who would behold Him can see Him, for |
| Tx:12.44 | because they looked within and saw beyond the darkness the | Christ in them and recognized Him. In the sanity of His vision, they |
| Tx:12.47 | This darkness is in you. The | Christ revealed to you now has no past, for He is changeless, and in |
| Tx:12.51 | not change and where there is no sight of what you were, you look at | Christ and call His witnesses to shine on you because you called them |
| Tx:12.52 | Reach out to all your brothers and touch them with the touch of | Christ. In timeless union with them is your continuity, unbroken |
| Tx:12.56 | Awakening unto | Christ is following the laws of love of your free will and out of |
| Tx:12.57 | faithful in your giving, for you were not alone. Even in sleep has | Christ protected you, ensuring the real world for you when you wake. |
| Tx:12.63 | out of sight because what is denied is there but is not recognized. | Christ is still there, although you know Him not. His Being does not |
| Tx:12.64 | and exchange your errors for the peace of God is but your will. And | Christ will always offer you the Will of God in recognition that you |
| Tx:12.73 | The Holy Spirit leads me unto | Christ, and where else would I go? What need have I but to awake in |
| Tx:13.2 | can reach everywhere under His guidance, for the vision of | Christ beholds everything in light. Yet no perception, however holy, |
| Tx:13.28 | pure as He Who raised it to Himself. Nothing can keep from you what | Christ would have you see. His Will is like His Father's, and He |
| Tx:13.62 | and fears of nothing. Accept this key to freedom from the hands of | Christ Who gives it to you that you may join Him in the holy task of |
| Tx:13.63 | will waken them, and they will not leave you asleep. The vision of | Christ is given the very instant that it is perceived. Where |
| Tx:14.30 | for you, and unless you look with Him, He cannot see. The vision of | Christ is not for Him alone but for Him with you. Bring, therefore, |
| Tx:15.28 | Whom you dwell. Touch no one, then, with littleness, in the name of | Christ, eternal Host unto His Father. |
| Tx:15.54 | and so do you. In time you have been told to offer miracles as | Christ directs and let the Holy Spirit bring to you those who are |
| Tx:15.54 | instant, you unite directly with God, and all your brothers join in | Christ. Those who are joined in Christ are in no way separate. For |
| Tx:15.54 | God, and all your brothers join in Christ. Those who are joined in | Christ are in no way separate. For Christ is the Self the Sonship |
| Tx:15.54 | Christ. Those who are joined in Christ are in no way separate. For | Christ is the Self the Sonship shares, as God shares His Self with |
| Tx:15.54 | Christ is the Self the Sonship shares, as God shares His Self with | Christ. |
| Tx:15.82 | bodies you perceive. For all its parts are joined in God through | Christ, where they become like to their Father. For Christ knows of |
| Tx:15.82 | in God through Christ, where they become like to their Father. For | Christ knows of no separation from His Father, Who is His one |
| Tx:15.92 | gift I gave to you. Release me as I will your release. The time of | Christ we celebrate together, for it has no meaning if we are apart. |
| Tx:15.93 | The holy instant is truly the time of | Christ. For in this liberating instant, no guilt is laid upon the Son |
| Tx:15.94 | I was born to give. Give it to me, that you may have it. The time of | Christ is the time appointed for the gift of freedom, offered to |
| Tx:15.94 | make this season holy, for it is in your power to make the time of | Christ be now. |
| Tx:15.102 | shining in the Heaven within and accept it as the sign the time of | Christ has come. He comes demanding nothing. No sacrifice of any kind |
| Tx:15.102 | it. No fear can touch the host who cradles God in the time of | Christ, for the Host is as holy as the Perfect Innocence which He |
| Tx:15.108 | itself. Let no despair darken the joy of Christmas, for the time of | Christ is meaningless apart from joy. Let us join in celebrating |
| Tx:15.108 | we are deprived of nothing? Such is the message of the time of | Christ, which I give you that you may give it and return it to the |
| Tx:15.108 | and return it to the Father, Who gave it to me. For in the time of | Christ, communication is restored, and He joins us in the celebration |
| Tx:15.110 | This is the weekend in which a new year will be born from the time of | Christ. I have perfect faith in you to do all that you would |
| Tx:17.36 | keep truth whole. The power of Heaven, the love of God, the tears of | Christ, and the joy of His eternal Spirit are marshaled to defend you |
| Tx:19.11 | united in your purpose to be released from guilt. You saw the | Christ in him, and he was healed because you looked on what makes |
| Tx:19.41 | it now? You are not asked to let it go for yourselves alone. | Christ asks it of you for Himself. He would bring peace to everyone, |
| Tx:19.91 | obstacle to be surmounted hangs like a heavy veil before the face of | Christ. Yet as His face rises beyond it, shining with joy because He |
| Tx:19.91 | Him at last. For this dark veil, which seems to make the face of | Christ Himself like to a leper's and the bright rays of His Father's |
| Tx:19.93 | to let the fear of God be lifted so you could look upon the face of | Christ and join Him in His Father. |
| Tx:19.103 | Behold your Friend, the | Christ Who stands beside you. How holy and how beautiful He is! You |
| Tx:19.103 | still offers you salvation as His Friend. The “enemies” of | Christ, the worshipers of sin, know not Whom they attack. This is |
| Tx:20.1 | of his release. For Easter is the sign of peace, not pain. A slain | Christ has no meaning. But a risen Christ becomes the symbol of the |
| Tx:20.1 | sign of peace, not pain. A slain Christ has no meaning. But a risen | Christ becomes the symbol of the Son of God's forgiveness of himself; |
| Tx:20.3 | Nor can the resurrection be complete till your forgiveness rests on | Christ, along with mine. A week is short, and yet this holy week is |
| Tx:20.4 | the cost of sin but of its end.] If you see glimpses of the face of | Christ behind the veil looking between the snow white petals of the |
| Tx:20.32 | each one finds his savior when he is ready to look upon the face of | Christ and see Him sinless. |
| Tx:20.34 | of every two who enter here to rest. And as they rest, the face of | Christ shines on them, and they remember the laws of God, forgetting |
| Tx:20.40 | glad. You will not think to judge him, for who would see the face of | Christ and yet insist that judgment still has meaning? For this |
| Tx:20.42 | forgiveness you will give each other already given; the face of | Christ you yet will look upon already seen. |
| Tx:20.49 | His temples where love can never be. Would He Who sees the face of | Christ choose as His home the only place in all the universe where it |
| Tx:20.57 | the body? Can they be long held back from looking on the face of | Christ? And can they long withhold the memory of their relationship |
| Tx:20.61 | it is, the body cannot meaningfully be invested with attributes of | Christ or of the ego. Either must be an error, for both would place |
| Tx:20.69 | salvation is. Be willing, then, to see your brother sinless that | Christ may rise before your vision and give you joy. And place no |
| Tx:22.11 | anything except yourself. For no two people can unite except through | Christ, Whose vision sees them one. |
| Tx:22.12 | could not come to anyone but you, never to “something else.” Where | Christ has entered, no one is alone, for never could He find a home |
| Tx:22.15 | Christ comes to what is like Himself; the same, not different. For He | |
| Tx:22.15 | your Father's Will for you, and yours with His. And who is drawn to | Christ is drawn to God as surely as both are drawn to every holy |
| Tx:22.27 | forgiveness is gently overlooked and disappears. For at its center | Christ has been reborn to light His home with vision that overlooks |
| Tx:22.28 | All you need do to dwell in quiet here with | Christ is share His vision. Quickly and gladly is His vision given to |
| Tx:22.40 | place, before the veil of sin that hangs between you and the face of | Christ. Let it be lifted! Raise it together, for it is but a veil |
| Tx:22.40 | even here before the veil. Think what will happen after! The love of | Christ will light your faces and shine from them into a darkened |
| Tx:22.41 | you, will you now open to the sorrowful. And none who looks upon the | Christ in you but will rejoice. How beautiful the sight you saw |
| Tx:24.40 | The | Christ in you is very still. He looks on what He loves and knows it |
| Tx:24.42 | Where could your peace arise but from forgiveness? The | Christ in you looks only on the truth and sees no condemnation that |
| Tx:24.44 | to listen, and no hands to hold nor feet to guide. Be glad that only | Christ can lend you His while you have need of them. They are |
| Tx:24.45 | The | Christ in you is very still. He knows where you are going, and He |
| Tx:24.45 | you lead to Him. And what you see is like yourself. For what but | Christ is there to see and hear and love and follow home? He looked |
| Tx:24.46 | gift of life that your forgiveness offers to your Self. The sight of | Christ is all there is to see. The song of Christ is all there is to |
| Tx:24.46 | your Self. The sight of Christ is all there is to see. The song of | Christ is all there is to hear. The hand of Christ is all there is to |
| Tx:24.46 | is to see. The song of Christ is all there is to hear. The hand of | Christ is all there is to hold. There is no journey but to walk with |
| Tx:24.48 | there can be conflict. And every doubt must be about yourself. | Christ has no doubt, and from His certainty His quiet comes. He will |
| Tx:24.54 | eyes be blinded by the veil of specialness that hides the face of | Christ from him, and you as well. And let the fear of God no longer |
| Tx:24.54 | vision you were meant to see from you. Your brother's body shows not | Christ to you. He is set forth within his holiness. |
| Tx:24.55 | decision. For eternity is not regained by still one more denial of | Christ in him. And where is your salvation if he is but a body? Where |
| Tx:24.56 | wherein you see the judgment you have laid on both of you. The | Christ in you beholds his holiness. Your specialness looks on his |
| Tx:24.58 | of God, Who loves each part of Him with equal love [and care]. The | Christ in you can see your brother truly. Would you decide against |
| Tx:24.60 | too heavy. But a tiny willingness, a nod to God, a greeting to the | Christ in you, you find a burden wearisome and tedious, too heavy to |
| Tx:24.61 | Here is the voice of specialness heard clearly, judging against the | Christ and setting forth for you the purpose that you can attain and |
| Tx:24.61 | apply to what you do with it as your ally. For what you do through | Christ it does not know. To Him this judgment makes no sense at all, |
| Tx:25.1 | The | Christ in you inhabits not a body. Yet He is in you. And thus it must |
| Tx:25.1 | What gives you life cannot be housed in death. No more can you. | Christ is within a frame of holiness whose only purpose is that He |
| Tx:25.2 | No one who carries | Christ in him can fail to recognize Him everywhere. Except in bodies. |
| Tx:25.2 | do not recognize Him where He is. The son of man is not the risen | Christ. Yet does the Son of God abide exactly where he is and walks |
| Tx:25.3 | mind that thinks it is a body is sick indeed! And it is here that | Christ sets forth the remedy. His purpose folds the body in His light |
| Tx:25.4 | It cannot be that it is hard to do the task that | Christ appointed you to do, since it is He Who does it. And in the |
| Tx:25.4 | your holy brother, as he to you. Here is the meeting of the holy | Christ unto Himself; nor are any differences perceived to stand |
| Tx:25.5 | How can you manifest the | Christ in you except you look on holiness and see Him there? |
| Tx:25.5 | sinfulness wherein you stand condemned. Set in his holiness, the | Christ in him proclaims himself as you. |
| Tx:25.7 | veil is lifted through its gentleness, and nothing hides the face of | Christ from its beholders. And both of you stand there, before Him |
| Tx:25.8 | Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in truth. | Christ and His Father never have been separate, and Christ abides |
| Tx:25.8 | as one in truth. Christ and His Father never have been separate, and | Christ abides within your understanding in the part of you that |
| Tx:25.8 | the tiny mad desire to be separate, different, and special, to the | Christ, to make the oneness clear to what is really one. In this |
| Tx:25.19 | he sees not. And in this seeing is the vision shared that looks on | Christ instead of seeing death. |
| Tx:25.38 | Attack makes | Christ your enemy and God along with Him. Must you not be afraid with |
| Tx:25.38 | And who would see the Son of God as innocent and wish him dead? | Christ stands before you both each time you look on one another. He |
| Tx:25.39 | It is not | Christ you see by looking thus. It is the “enemy” confused with |
| Tx:25.39 | not Christ you see by looking thus. It is the “enemy” confused with | Christ you look upon. And hate because there is no sin in him for you |
| Tx:26.27 | is but the space that sin has left. And here you see the face of | Christ arising in its place. Who could behold the face of Christ and |
| Tx:26.27 | face of Christ arising in its place. Who could behold the face of | Christ and not recall His Father as He really is? Who could fear love |
| Tx:26.77 | host. Regard him gently. Look with loving eyes on him who carries | Christ within him, that you may behold His glory and rejoice that |
| Tx:26.78 | Is it too much to ask a little trust for him who carries | Christ to you, that you may be forgiven all your sins and left |
| Tx:26.78 | a shadow held between your brother and yourself obscures the face of | Christ and memory of God. And would you trade Them for an ancient |
| Tx:26.84 | are welcome made at last. Where stood a cross stands now the risen | Christ, and ancient scars are healed within His sight. An ancient |
| Tx:27.49 | it might live. It will call forth its witnesses to show the face of | Christ to you who brought the sight to them by which they witnessed |
| Tx:29.54 | —some form of anti-Christ which constitutes a gap between the | Christ and what you see. An idol is a wish made tangible and given |
| Tx:29.54 | from the idea it represents. All forms of anti-Christ oppose the | Christ and fall before His face like a dark veil which seems to shut |
| Tx:29.55 | This world of idols is a veil across the face of | Christ because its purpose is to separate your brother from yourself. |
| Tx:30.29 | For they are made with idols or with God. And you ask help of | Christ or anti-Christ, and which you choose will join with you and |
| Tx:30.63 | took, and they will look on Him Whose hand they hold. The face of | Christ is looked upon before the Father is remembered. For He must be |
| Tx:30.63 | reached beyond forgiveness to the love of God. Yet is the love of | Christ accepted first. And then will come the knowledge They are One. |
| Tx:30.93 | For this but means you would not have him healed and whole. The | Christ in him is perfect. Is it this that you would look upon? Then |
| Tx:30.93 | him which you would prefer to seeing this. And you will see the | Christ in him because you let Him come to you. And when He has |
| Tx:30.94 | you would have him be but what he is. Why should you fear to see the | Christ in him? You but behold your Self in what you see. As he is |
| Tx:31.9 | the ancient call to life and understood that it is but your own. The | Christ in you remembers God with all the certainty with which He |
| Tx:31.21 | God's love, you will be saved from all appearances and answer to the | Christ Who calls to you. Be still and listen. Think not ancient |
| Tx:31.21 | lessons that you learned about this Son of God who calls to you. | Christ calls to all with equal tenderness, seeing no leaders and no |
| Tx:31.23 | not alone. And in this choice is learning's outcome changed, for | Christ has been reborn to both of you. |
| Tx:31.75 | what he beholds. And in this single vision does he see the face of | Christ and understands he looks on everyone as he beholds this One. |
| Tx:31.76 | The veil across the face of | Christ, the fear of God and of salvation, and the love of guilt and |
| Tx:31.80 | Then is the answer given. And the door held open for the face of | Christ to shine upon the one who asks in innocence to see beyond the |
| Tx:31.80 | and ancient concepts held so long and dear against the vision of the | Christ in you. |
| Tx:31.83 | he has; his grasp cannot exceed its tiny reach. Would you be this if | Christ appeared to you in all His glory, asking you but this: |
| Tx:31.86 | You always choose between your weakness and the strength of | Christ in you. And what you choose is what you think is real. Simply |
| Tx:31.86 | to direct your actions, you have given it no power. And the light of | Christ in you is given charge of everything you do. For you have |
| Tx:31.87 | to you. In every difficulty, all distress, and each perplexity | Christ calls to you and gently says, “My brother, choose again.” He |
| Tx:31.88 | an image of yourself before. For what appears to hide the face of | Christ is powerless before His majesty and disappears before His holy |
| Tx:31.93 | constant fear. For it is given you to join with him, and through the | Christ in you unveil his eyes and let him look upon the Christ in |
| Tx:31.93 | through the Christ in you unveil his eyes and let him look upon the | Christ in him. My brothers in salvation, do not fail to hear my voice |
| Tx:31.94 | to lift us high above the thorny roads we traveled on before the | Christ appeared. Hear me, my brothers, hear and join with me. God has |
| Tx:31.97 | And now we say “Amen.” For | Christ has come to dwell in the abode You set for Him before time |
| Tx:31.97 | and not one spot of darkness still remains to hide the face of | Christ from anyone. Thy Will is done, complete and perfectly, and all |
| W1:59.4 | choose when I try to see through the body's eyes. Yet the vision of | Christ has been given me to replace them. It is through this vision |
| W1:62.3 | weakness, while every time you forgive you call upon the strength of | Christ in you. Do you not then begin to understand what forgiveness |
| W1:100.9 | little thoughts and foolish goals you pass as you ascend to meet the | Christ in you. |
| W1:110.8 | Self Who is the holy Son of God Himself. Seek Him within you Who is | Christ in you, the Son of God and brother to the world—the savior |
| W1:110.9 | of what He is be worshiped not today. Deep in your mind the holy | Christ in you is waiting your acknowledgment as you. And you are lost |
| W1:110.11 | we will say, that we may be reminded of His Son, our holy Self, the | Christ in each of us: |
| W1:122.3 | Forgiveness lets the veil be lifted up which hides the face of | Christ from those who look with unforgiving eyes upon the world. It |
| W1:137.6 | of your function here. For anti-Christ becomes more powerful than | Christ to those who dream the world is real. The body seems to be |
| W1:151.8 | on certainty so great that doubt is meaningless before Its face. | Christ cannot doubt Himself. The Voice of God can only honor Him, |
| W1:151.10 | look beyond these grim appearances and can behold the gentle face of | Christ in all of them. You will no longer doubt that only good can |
| W1:151.12 | your Creator, Who is one with Him. So will you see the holy face of | Christ in everything and hear in everything no sound except the echo |
| W1:153.6 | Defenselessness is strength. It testifies to recognition of the | Christ in you. Perhaps you will recall the course maintains that |
| W1:153.7 | Defensiveness is weakness. It proclaims you have denied the | Christ and come to fear His Father's anger. What can save you now |
| W1:153.19 | ourselves in it as we prepare to meet the day. We rise up strong in | Christ and let our weakness disappear as we remember that His |
| W1:153.21 | give Him in return. You lay aside but what was never real to look on | Christ and see His sinlessness. |
| W1:158.5 | Yet there is a vision which the Holy Spirit sees because the mind of | Christ beholds it too. |
| W1:158.9 | Thus are his sins forgiven him, for | Christ has vision which has power to overlook them all. In His |
| W1:158.11 | shines with its immortal love. We practice seeing with the eyes of | Christ today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ's vision looks |
| W1:159.4 | are united in extension here on earth as they are one in Heaven. | Christ beholds no sin in anyone, and in His sight the sinless are as |
| W1:159.6 | no lack unsatisfied, no need unmet within this golden treasury of | Christ. |
| W1:159.9 | Now are they twice blessed. The messages they brought from | Christ have been delivered and returned to them. And they return them |
| W1:159.10 | you? Judge not God's Son, but follow in the way He has established. | Christ has dreamed the dream of a forgiven world. It is His gift |
| W1:160.9 | Today we offer thanks that | Christ has come to search the world for what belongs to Him. His |
| W1:161.1 | is the answer to temptation which can never fail to welcome in the | Christ where fear and anger had prevailed before. Here is Atonement |
| W1:161.14 | your blessing, holy Son of God. I would behold you with the eyes of | Christ, and see my perfect sinlessness in you. |
| W1:161.15 | now whom you had seen as merely flesh and bone and recognize that | Christ has come to you. |
| W1:161.16 | him suddenly transformed from enemy to savior, from the devil into | Christ. |
| W1:164.1 | upon what is forever there—not in our sight, but in the eyes of | Christ. He looks past time and sees eternity as represented there. He |
| W1:164.2 | both. For they are but your answer to your Father's call to you. | Christ answers for you, echoing your Self, using your voice to give |
| W1:164.3 | How holy is your practicing today, as | Christ gives you His sight and hears for you and answers in your name |
| W1:164.5 | innocence before your eyes. Now will you see it with the eyes of | Christ. Now is its transformation clear to you. |
| W1:164.7 | its holiness reflects our own. We stand forgiven in the sight of | Christ, with all the world forgiven in our own. |
| W1:164.8 | put away and leave a clean and open space within your mind where | Christ can come and offer you the treasure of salvation. He has need |
| W1:165.5 | proves that you have exchanged your blindness for the seeing eyes of | Christ; your mind has come to lay aside denial and accept the Thought |
| W1:166.13 | their wishes. It is you who teach them now. For you have learned of | Christ there is another way for them to walk. Teach them by showing |
| W1:166.13 | showing them the happiness that comes to those who feel the touch of | Christ and recognize God's gifts. Let sorrow not tempt you to be |
| W1:166.15 | mind becomes which chooses to accept His gifts and feel the touch of | Christ. Such is your mission now. For God entrusts the giving of His |
| W1:169.6 | —past all thought of time, forgiveness, and the holy face of | Christ. The Son of God has merely disappeared into His Father, as his |
| W1:169.12 | What is the face of | Christ but his who went a moment into timelessness and brought a |
| W1:170.13 | Now do your eyes belong to | Christ, and He looks through them. Now your voice belongs to God and |
| W1:181.9 | is all we seek for in the name of true perception, are the eyes of | Christ inevitably ours. And the love He feels for us becomes our own |
| W1:182.10 | Christ is reborn as but a little Child each time a wanderer would | |
| W1:182.11 | the spear and sword you raised against an enemy without existence. | Christ has called you friend and brother. He has even come to you to |
| W1:192.8 | Who can be born again in | Christ but him who has forgiven everyone he sees or thinks of or |
| W1:197.7 | and He gives thanks for you unto Himself. To everyone who lives will | Christ yet come, for everyone must live and breathe in Him. His Being |
| W1:198.12 | forgotten, all its weird beliefs forgotten with it, as the face of | Christ appears unveiled at last in this one dream. This is the gift |
| W1:198.12 | guilty of, and see your innocence shining upon you from the face of | Christ. |
| W2:223.2 | Our Father, let us see the face of | Christ instead of our mistakes. For we who are Your holy Son are |
| W2:229.1 | my coming home that I will turn away no longer from the holy face of | Christ. And what I look upon attests the truth of the Identity I |
| W2:237.1 | I hear as God my Father speaks to me. And I behold the world that | Christ would have me see, aware it ends the bitter dream of death, |
| W2:237.2 | Christ is my eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice | |
| W2:WIW.5 | the world. For we who made it must behold it through the eyes of | Christ, that what was made to die be restored to Everlasting Life. |
| W2:263.2 | let us look on all we see through holy vision and the eyes of | Christ. Let all appearances seem pure to us that we may pass them by |
| W2:266.1 | Your holy Voice to me. In them are You reflected, and in them does | Christ look back upon me from my Self. Let not Your Son forget Your |
| W2:269.1 | to see a world forgiven in which everyone shows me the face of | Christ and teaches me that what I look upon belongs to me, that |
| W2:270.2 | will bless our hearts, and through them peace will come to everyone. | Christ is our eyes today. And through His sight, we offer healing to |
| W2:WIC.1 | Christ is God's Son as He created Him. He is the Self we share, | |
| W2:WIC.2 | Christ is the link that keeps you one with God and guarantees that | |
| W2:WIC.3 | Home of the Holy Spirit and at home in God alone, does | Christ remain at peace within the Heaven of your holy mind. This is |
| W2:WIC.3 | in truth. The rest is dreams. Yet will these dreams be given unto | Christ to fade before His glory and reveal your holy Self, the |
| W2:WIC.3 | unto Christ to fade before His glory and reveal your holy Self, the | Christ, to you at last. |
| W2:WIC.4 | The Holy Spirit reaches from the | Christ in you to all your dreams and bids them come to Him to be |
| W2:WIC.5 | or perception or of time, or anything except the holy Self, the | Christ Whom God created as His Son. |

| W2:295.1 | Christ asks that He may use my eyes today and thus redeem the world. | |
| W2:295.2 | My Father, | Christ has asked a gift of me, and one I give that it be given me. |
| W2:295.2 | me, and one I give that it be given me. Help me to use the eyes of | Christ today and thus allow the Holy Spirit's love to bless all |
| W2:WISC.3 | Coming is the time in which all minds are given to the hands of | Christ, to be returned to Spirit in the name of true creation and the |
| W2:WISC.4 | now is equally released from what he made. In this equality is | Christ restored as one Identity, in which all Sons of God acknowledge |
| W2:303.1 | be quiet and the sights to which I am accustomed disappear. Let | Christ be welcomed where He is at home, and let Him hear the sounds |
| W2:303.2 | love above all things. He is my Self as You created me. It is not | Christ that can be crucified. Safe in Your arms, let me receive Your |
| W2:304.1 | if I intrude my world upon it. Nor can I behold the holy sights | Christ looks upon unless it is His vision that I use. Perception is a |
| W2:304.1 | I would bless the world by looking on it through the eyes of | Christ. And I will look upon the certain signs that all my sins have |
| W2:305.2 | Father, the peace of | Christ is given us because it is Your will that we be saved. Help us |
| W2:306.2 | an offering sufficient for Your Son. But in Your Love, the gift of | Christ is his. |
| W2:308.1 | in this instant has forgiveness come to set me free. The birth of | Christ is now, without a past or future. He has come to give His |
| W2:312.1 | purpose as his goal for seeing. And he cannot fail to look upon what | Christ would have him see and share Christ's love for what he looks |
| W2:313.1 | come wherever it is asked. This vision is Your gift. The eyes of | Christ look on a world forgiven. In His sight are all its sins |
| W2:313.2 | Let us today behold each other in the sight of | Christ. How beautiful we are! How holy and how loving! Brother, come |
| W2:WIM.3 | Forgiveness is the home of miracles. The eyes of | Christ deliver them to all they look upon in mercy and in love. |
| W2:353.1 | Father, I give all that is mine today to | Christ to use in any way that best will serve the purpose that I |
| W2:353.1 | His purpose. Then I lose myself in my Identity and recognize that | Christ is but my Self. |
| W2:354.1 | My oneness with the | Christ establishes me as Your Son, beyond the reach of time and |
| W2:354.1 | and wholly free of every law but Yours. I have no self except the | Christ in me. I have no purpose but His own. And He is like His |
| W2:354.1 | His Father. Thus must I be one with You as well as Him. For who is | Christ except Your Son as You created Him? And what am I except the |
| W2:354.1 | Christ except Your Son as You created Him? And what am I except the | Christ in me? |
| M:4.16 | Voice directs them in all things. Joy is their song of thanks. And | Christ looks down on them in thanks as well. His need of them is just |
| M:4.24 | welcoming, for threat is gone. No clouds remain to hide the face of | Christ. Now is the goal achieved. Forgiveness is the final goal of |
| M:12.1 | He is forever One, because He is as God created Him. He has accepted | Christ, and He is saved. |
| M:13.4 | toys? Does one whose vision has already glimpsed the face of | Christ look back with longing on a slaughter house? No one who has |
| M:22.4 | of healing. He overlooks the mind and body, seeing only the face of | Christ shining in front of him, correcting all mistakes and healing |
| M:23.1 | healing because of this? The Bible says, “Ask in the name of Jesus | Christ.” Is this merely an appeal to magic? A name does not heal, nor |
| M:23.1 | call forth any special power. What does it mean to call on Jesus | Christ? What does calling on his name confer? Why is the appeal to |
| M:23.4 | The name of Jesus | Christ as such is but a symbol. But it stands for love that is not of |
| M:28.5 | What remains that vision could accomplish? We have seen the face of | Christ, His sinlessness, His love behind all forms, beyond all |

| W1:59.3 | my pitiful illusion of seeing for the vision that is given by God. | Christ's vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. Let me call |
| W1:124.9 | the mirror that this exercise will offer you. And you will see | Christ's face upon it, in reflection of your own. |
| W1:157.9 | Into | Christ's Presence will we enter now, serenely unaware of everything |
| W1:158.5 | time. But vision is his gift. This he can give directly, for | Christ's knowledge is not lost because He has a vision He can give to |
| W1:158.6 | for it transcends what needs to be accomplished. Our concern is with | Christ's vision. This we can attain. |
| W1:158.7 | Christ's vision has one law. It does not look upon a body and mistake | |
| W1:158.10 | Thus do you learn to give as you receive. And thus | Christ's vision looks on you as well. This lesson is not difficult to |
| W1:158.10 | Each brother whom you meet today provides another chance to let | Christ's vision shine on you and offer you the peace of God. |
| W1:158.11 | seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts we give, | Christ's vision looks upon ourselves as well. |
| W1:159.3 | Christ's vision is a miracle. It comes from far beyond itself, for it | |
| W1:159.3 | and the rebirth of love which never died but has been kept obscure. | Christ's vision pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so like to |
| W1:159.4 | Christ's vision is the miracle in which all miracles are born. It is | |
| W1:159.5 | Christ's vision is the bridge between the worlds. And in its power | |
| W1:159.8 | Christ's vision is the holy ground in which the lilies of forgiveness | |

| W1:161.6 | beyond the body, for its sight presents the symbol of love's “enemy” | Christ's vision does not see. The body is the target for attack, for |
| W1:161.9 | angels love, and God created perfect. This is his reality. And in | Christ's vision is his loveliness reflected in a form so holy and so |
| W1:161.11 | Your readiness is closer now, and you will come today nearer | Christ's vision. If you are intent on reaching it, you will succeed |
| W1:162.4 | its sharing is unlimited. And thus you learn to think with God. | Christ's vision has restored your sight by salvaging your mind. |
| W1:164.9 | Is not this purpose worthy to be yours? Is not | Christ's vision worthy to be sought above the world's unsatisfying |
| W1:165.6 | the journey's end made certain, and salvation given you. Now is | Christ's power in your mind to heal as you were healed. For now you |
| W1:166.8 | You cower fearfully lest you should feel | Christ's touch upon your shoulder and perceive His gentle hand |
| W1:166.9 | has come upon you now, and justice has caught up with you at last. | Christ's hand has touched your shoulder, and you feel that you are |
| W1:166.14 | them their fears are justified. Your hand becomes the giver of | Christ's touch; your change of mind becomes the proof that who |
| W1:166.15 | Betray it not. Become the living proof of what | Christ's touch can offer everyone. God has entrusted all His gifts to |
| W1:192.6 | his holiness. With anger gone, you will indeed perceive that for | Christ's vision and the gift of sight no sacrifice was asked, and |
| W2:I.6 | end. Accept these little gifts of thanks from us, as through | Christ's vision we behold a world beyond the one we made and take |
| W2:247.1 | and I will suffer. For forgiveness is the only means whereby | Christ's vision comes to me. Let me accept what His sight shows me as |
| W2:260.1 | me remember my Identity. And let my sinlessness arise again before | Christ's vision, through which I would look upon my brothers and |
| W2:270.1 | Father, | Christ's vision is Your gift to me, and it has power to translate all |
| W2:WIC.4 | could remain to keep things separate, for what remains to see except | Christ's face? |
| W2:WIC.5 | Atonement has been reached at last? So therefore let us seek to find | Christ's face and look on nothing else. As we behold His glory will |

| W2:271.2 | Father, | Christ's vision is the way to You. What He beholds invites Your |
| W2:290.1 | is all I see. Eyes that begin to open see at last. And I would have | Christ's vision come to me this very day. What I perceive without |

| W2:WISC.1 | Christ's Second Coming, which is sure as God, is merely the | |

| W2:305.1 | Who uses but | Christ's vision finds a peace so deep and quiet, undisturbable and |
| W2:305.1 | home of fear. For Love has come and healed the world by giving it | Christ's peace. |

| W2:WAI.4 | Ours are the eyes through which | Christ's vision sees a world redeemed from every thought of sin. Ours |

| M:22.5 | the Atonement for himself and can hardly offer it to his brother in | Christ's Name. He will, in fact, be unable to recognize his brother |
| M:23.5 | no limit and no stain to mar your beautiful perfection. In his eyes | Christ's vision shines in perfect constancy. He has remained with |
| M:25.6 | these gifts, and those who offer them to Him and Him alone go with | Christ's gratitude upon their hearts, and His holy sight not far |
| M:28.2 | and the remembrance of God shines unimpeded across the world. | Christ's face is seen in every living thing, and nothing is held in |

| Tx:1.96 | Christ-controlled miracles are selective only in the sense that they | |

| Tx:3.11 | There is another point which must be perfectly | clear before any residual fear which may still be associated with |
| Tx:3.17 | The Atonement too is totally without symbolism. It is perfectly | clear because it exists in light. Only man's attempts to shroud it in |
| Tx:3.21 | people are apt to be vicious. Sacrificing another in any way is a | clear cut violation of God's own injunction that man should be |
| Tx:3.44 | it willed ambiguously, and the only way out of ambiguity is | clear perception. The mind returns to its proper function only when |
| Tx:3.51 | of anything since. You will also remember, however, that I made it | clear that the resurrection was the means for the return to |
| Tx:3.60 | yourself in the One Light where the miracle that is you is perfectly | clear. |
| Tx:4.94 | It should be | clear by now that, while the content of any particular ego-illusion |
| Tx:5.14 | First, its universality is perfectly | clear, and no one who receives it could ever believe for one instant |
| Tx:5.85 | of vacillation. Unless a mind is fixed in its purpose, it is not | clear. Clarity literally means the state of light, and enlightenment |
| Tx:5.89 | so strong that you will never overcome it. The reason is perfectly | clear. The fixation is on a level so high that it cannot be |
| Tx:6.1 | but the inevitable association of anger and fear is not always so | clear. Anger always involves projection of separation, which must |
| Tx:6.8 | I have made it perfectly | clear that I am like you and you are like me, but our fundamental |
| Tx:6.13 | abandoned, beaten, torn, and finally killed. It was perfectly | clear that this was only because of the projection of others, because |
| Tx:6.17 | The message of the crucifixion is [very simple and] perfectly | clear: |
| Tx:6.25 | the device that keeps it going. The reason, however, may not be as | clear as you think. |
| Tx:6.35 | make the idea of return [both] necessary and difficult. It is surely | clear, however, that the perfect need nothing and cannot experience |
| Tx:6.59 | only three words: “Do only that!” This simple statement is perfectly | clear, easily understood, and very easily remembered. |
| Tx:6.80 | for the ultimate decision, it is clearly not the final one. It is | clear at this point that the lack of order of difficulty in miracles |
| Tx:6.87 | be. It does not concern itself with order of difficulty but with | clear cut priority for vigilance. This step is unequivocal in that it |
| Tx:7.20 | and “nothing” are dichotomous, without a range. This is perfectly | clear in considering psychological tests of maximal performance. You |
| Tx:7.29 | minds. The altar there is the only reality. The altar is perfectly | clear in thought, because it is a reflection of perfect Thought. It |
| Tx:7.99 | which will determine what you accept into your mind. It is surely | clear that you can both accept into your mind what is not really |
| Tx:7.103 | but the ego always does. When you are confused about this very | clear distinction in motivation, it can only be due to projection. |
| Tx:7.111 | to perceive as truth. This is the perception which is immediate, | clear, and natural. You have trained yourselves not to see it, and |
| Tx:8.2 | have knowledge? I have told you what knowledge offers you, but it is | clear that you do not regard this as wholly desirable. If you did, |
| Tx:9.28 | The Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He makes healing perfectly | clear in any situation in which he is the Guide. The human therapist |
| Tx:9.73 | it must be. Yet the logical outcome of your decision is perfectly | clear if you will look at it. By deciding against your reality, you |

| Tx:10.60 | what you perceive is your interpretation. This course is perfectly | clear. You do not see it clearly because you are interpreting against |
| Tx:11.4 | to you, but this by no means signifies that it is not perfectly | clear. If you maintain that an appeal for help is something else, you |
| Tx:12.29 | of time is the exact opposite of the ego's. The reason is equally | clear, for they perceive the goal of time as diametrically opposed. |
| Tx:12.53 | and gladness rise to your Creator, He will return your thanks in His | clear answer to your call. For it can never be that His Son called |
| Tx:13.37 | and nothing else. Heaven is perfectly unambiguous. Everything is | clear and bright and calls forth one response. There is no darkness, |
| Tx:13.63 | is given the very instant that it is perceived. Where everything is | clear, it is all holy. The quietness of its simplicity is so |
| Tx:14.16 | because you do not understand its meaning. If you did, it would be | clear, and you would be no longer in the dark. Nothing has hidden |
| Tx:14.19 | the truth of one must make the falsity of its opposite perfectly | clear. Keep not guilt and guiltlessness apart, for your belief that |
| Tx:14.42 | or hell; God or the ego. You need but leave the mirror clean and | clear of all the images of hidden darkness you have drawn upon it. |
| Tx:14.42 | you have drawn upon it. God will shine upon it of Himself. Only the | clear reflection of Himself can be perceived upon it. Reflections are |
| Tx:14.43 | The reflection of God needs no interpretation. It is | clear. Clean but the mirror, and the message which shines forth from |
| Tx:15.9 | not exist. There is no fear in the present when each instant stands | clear and separated from the past, without its shadow reaching out |
| Tx:15.38 | gladly give over every plan but His. For there lies peace, perfectly | clear because you have been willing to meet its conditions. You can |
| Tx:15.39 | I stand within the holy instant, as | clear as you would have me. And the extent to which you learn to be |
| Tx:16.22 | are willing to judge yourself accordingly. Cause and effect are very | clear in the ego's thought system because all your learning has been |
| Tx:17.22 | but let Him hold the spark before you to light your way and make it | clear to you. God's Son is one. Whom God has joined as one, the ego |
| Tx:17.41 | The picture of light, in | clear cut and unmistakable contrast, is transformed into what lies |
| Tx:17.45 | disjunctive, and even quite distressing. The reason is quite | clear. For the relationship as it is, is out of line with its own |
| Tx:17.57 | is easily understood, and for this it is apparent that it must be | clear. The setting of the Holy Spirit's goal is general. Now He will |
| Tx:17.59 | Without a | clear cut positive goal, set at the outset, the situation just seems |
| Tx:17.74 | to the call of truth. The holy instant is the shining example, the | clear and unequivocal demonstration of the meaning of every |

| Tx:21.78 | be answered and is answered in the other three. And then it will be | clear to you that, as you look on the effects of sin in any form, all |
| Tx:23.44 | lose sight of it? It can be kept shining before your vision, forever | clear and never out of sight if you defend it not. |

| Tx:25.44 | easier to look upon; less painful to the eyes than what is wholly | clear and unambiguous. Yet this is not what eyes are for. And who can |
| Tx:26.74 | understand it now but will some day. And then its meaning will be | clear. This is not reason, for it is unjust and clearly hints at |
| Tx:27.36 | not an answer in another light. You are in conflict. Thus it must be | clear you cannot answer anything at all, for conflict has no limited |
| Tx:28.25 | lesson which the Holy Spirit requests you learn, the miracle is | clear. It demonstrates what He would have you learn and shows you its |

| W1:122.13 | world of shifting change and bleak appearances. Retain your gifts in | clear awareness as you see the changeless in the heart of change, the |
| W1:131.16 | all darkness vanishes and you are standing in a light so bright and | clear that you can understand all things you see. A tiny moment of |
| W1:133.10 | served the ego's hidden goals. And though he tries to keep its halo | clear within his vision, yet must he perceive its tarnished edges and |
| W1:R4.7 | that day can offer you in freedom and in peace. Open your mind and | clear it of all thoughts that would deceive, and let this thought |

| Tx:5.59 | Perhaps some of our concepts will become | clearer and more personally meaningful if the ego's use of guilt is |
| Tx:10.3 | unseen. The more you approach the center of His thought system, the | clearer the light becomes. The closer you come to [the foundation of] |
| Tx:14.25 | to believe the more you look at fear, the less you see it, and the | clearer what it conceals becomes. |

| Tx:16.2 | The | clearest proof that empathy as the ego uses it is destructive lies in |

| Tx:2.71 | The way in which both of these perceptions are stated | clearly implies their dependence on time, making it quite apparent |
| Tx:2.73 | There is a confusion here which you would do well to look at | clearly. You believe that you are responsible for what you do but not |
| Tx:2.89 | On the other hand, many other expressions | clearly illustrate the prevailing lack of awareness of thought-power. |
| Tx:3.12 | would be capable of the kind of thinking which His own words have | clearly stated is unworthy of man? |
| Tx:3.35 | that you can know him. While you ask questions about God, you are | clearly implying that you do not know Him. Certainty does not require |
| Tx:3.43 | or wrong-minded, and even this is subject to degrees, a fact which | clearly demonstrates a lack of association with knowledge. The term |
| Tx:3.74 | discussed the fall, or separation, before, but its meaning must be | clearly understood without symbols. The separation is not symbolic. |
| Tx:3.78 | this belief is the “devil.” It is powerful, active, destructive, and | clearly in opposition to God because it literally denies His |

| Tx:4.39 | concentrating increasingly on the ego in an attempt to unify their | clearly unrelated data. It need hardly be said that an attempt to |
| Tx:4.45 | impulses from the superconscious are unacceptable to it because they | clearly point to the nonexistence of the ego itself. The ego |
| Tx:4.73 | organized, and consciously directed. The goal must be formulated | clearly and kept in mind. As a teacher with some experience, let me |
| Tx:4.79 | psychologist's ability to accept as reasonable a compromise which is | clearly senseless—to attribute it to the mental illness of the |
| Tx:4.101 | is shared. God does not need revelation returned to Him, which would | clearly be impossible, but He does want revelation brought to others. |
| Tx:5.86 | in development which does not accord with a point in time. This | clearly could have been a means toward real release from the time |
| Tx:6.20 | me as saying, “I come not to bring peace but a sword.” This is | clearly the exact opposite of everything I taught. |
| Tx:6.23 | it. The crucifixion was a complex of behaviors arising out of | clearly opposed thought systems. As such, it [is] the perfect symbol |
| Tx:6.62 | the Kingdom. The body is the symbol of what you think you are. It is | clearly a separation device and therefore does not exist. The Holy |
| Tx:6.70 | is what they perceive and teach and learn. These insane concepts are | clearly the result of their own dissociation and projection. What you |
| Tx:6.75 | The way out of conflict between two opposing thought systems is | clearly to choose one and relinquish the other. If you identify with |
| Tx:6.80 | although this step is essential for the ultimate decision, it is | clearly not the final one. It is clear at this point that the lack of |
| Tx:7.14 | is mandatory, because learning is essential. This form of the law | clearly implies that you will learn what you are from what you have |
| Tx:7.26 | that you are not what you are. This is so contradictory that it is | clearly impossible. It is therefore a lesson which you cannot really |
| Tx:7.56 | the ego never knows what it is doing. It is perfectly logical but | clearly insane. The ego draws upon the one source which is totally |
| Tx:7.99 | these possibilities requires further elaboration here, but both are | clearly indefensible, even if you elect to defend them. |
| Tx:9.12 | the ego always leads you. The ego's plan is to have you see error | clearly first and then overlook it. Yet how can you overlook what you |
| Tx:9.12 | it. Yet how can you overlook what you have made real? By seeing it | clearly, you have made it real and cannot overlook it. |
| Tx:9.22 | they have done is merely to identify with the ego and, by perceiving | clearly what it does, condemn themselves because of this profound |
| Tx:9.42 | The ego will begin to attack your motives as soon as they become | clearly out of accord with its perception of you. This is when it |
| Tx:10.43 | inappropriate if one recognizes the ego's goal, which is so | clearly senseless that any effort exerted on its behalf is |
| Tx:10.53 | out. The attempt to understand totality by breaking it up is | clearly the characteristically contradictory approach of the ego to |
| Tx:10.54 | inconsistency must be true if truth has meaning. Holding error | clearly in mind and protecting what it has made real, the ego |
| Tx:10.55 | The ego makes no attempt to understand this, and it is | clearly not understandable, but the ego does make every attempt to |
| Tx:10.60 | interpretation. This course is perfectly clear. You do not see it | clearly because you are interpreting against it and therefore do not |
| Tx:10.80 | application. Nothing could be more specific than to be told very | clearly that if you ask you will receive. The Holy Spirit will answer |
| Tx:11.47 | which you placed yourself is impossible, and in this situation you | clearly require a special Teacher and a special curriculum. Poor |
| Tx:11.48 | and do not try to set up curriculum goals where yours have | clearly failed. Your learning goal has been not to learn, and this |
| Tx:11.63 | them you will learn that He is there. What He enables you to do is | clearly not of this world, for miracles violate every law of reality |
| Tx:11.63 | is transcended, for what the Holy Spirit enables you to do is | clearly beyond all of them. Perceiving His results, you will |
| Tx:13.47 | know it. But you have the means for learning it and seeing it quite | clearly. The Holy Spirit uses logic as easily and as well as does the |
| Tx:13.47 | are not insane. They take a direction exactly opposite, pointing as | clearly to Heaven as the ego points to darkness and to death. We have |
| Tx:13.47 | in illusions, for there alone their seeming clearness seems to be | clearly seen. Let us now turn away from them and follow the simple |
| Tx:14.26 | view, it is not true. Yet it is true because God knows it. These are | clearly opposite viewpoints of what the “unknowing” are. To God, |
| Tx:14.39 | How long can contradiction stand when its impossible nature is | clearly revealed? What disappears in light is not attacked. It merely |
| Tx:15.4 | strange paradox in the ego's thought system before, but never so | clearly as here. For the ego must seem to keep fear from you to keep |
| Tx:15.19 | you have. You will be sure because the witness to Him will speak so | clearly of Him that you will hear and understand. |
| Tx:15.27 | The Holy Spirit can hold your magnitude, clean of all littleness, | clearly and in perfect safety in your minds, untouched by every |
| Tx:15.67 | is. For having been made real to you, it is essential to look at it | clearly, and by withdrawing your investment in it, to learn to let it |
| Tx:15.75 | you believe that to communicate is to make yourself alone? It is | clearly insane to believe that by communicating you will be |
| Tx:15.79 | In the face of your fear of forgiveness, which He perceives as | clearly as He knows forgiveness is release, He will teach you to |
| Tx:15.97 | recognition would make it homeless. For when this recognition dawns | clearly, you will not be deceived by any form the ego takes to |
| Tx:16.13 | behalf. It is impossible to convince you of the reality of what has | clearly been accomplished through your willingness, as long as you |
| Tx:16.18 | against God's Love, for you have many witnesses which speak of it so | clearly that only the blind and deaf could fail to see and hear them. |
| Tx:16.18 | that is the only reason He has called to you. His Voice has spoken | clearly, and yet you have so little faith in what you heard because |
| Tx:16.23 | be that what you taught came from yourself. And yet, this Self you | clearly do not know and do not recognize It even though It functions. |
| Tx:16.30 | to offset the hate but not to let it go. Your salvation will rise | clearly before your open eyes as you look on this. You cannot limit |
| Tx:17.15 | to think guiltily of another and not harm yourself. They speak so | clearly for the separation that no one not obsessed with keeping |
| Tx:17.28 | the function given them by God. The function you have given them is | clearly not to make happy. But the holy relationship shares God's |
| Tx:17.45 | For the relationship as it is, is out of line with its own goal and | clearly unsuited to the purpose which has been accepted for it. In |
| Tx:18.2 | united, they are one because they are the same. Substitution is | clearly a process in which they are perceived as different. One would |
| Tx:18.14 | quite real arise in dreams? Yet think what this world is. It is | clearly not the world you saw before you slept. Rather, it is a |
| Tx:18.18 | you see it, you do not doubt that it is real. Yet here is a world, | clearly within your mind, that seems to be outside. You do not |
| Tx:18.52 | In this, the mind is | clearly delusional. It cannot attack, but it maintains it can and |
| Tx:18.52 | its guilt, but it will not lose it through projection. And though it | clearly can misperceive the function of the body, it cannot change |
| Tx:18.53 | of vengeance to release from them? Your perception of the body can | clearly be sick, but project not this upon the body. For your wish to |
| Tx:19.17 | for correction, and the belief that punishment is correction is | clearly insane. |
| Tx:19.26 | it go. An error, on the other hand, is not attractive. What you see | clearly as a mistake you want corrected. |
| Tx:19.28 | you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In time the Holy Spirit | clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes. On this you share His |
| Tx:20.39 | for itself and therefore values him too little. What is inestimable | clearly cannot be evaluated. Do you recognize the fear that rises |
| Tx:21.53 | Such would your reason tell you if you listened. Yet such is | clearly not the ego's “reasoning.” Its alien nature to the ego is |
| Tx:24.61 | what made this judgment. Here is the voice of specialness heard | clearly, judging against the Christ and setting forth for you the |
| Tx:26.24 | make them different. [How simple is the choice between two things so | clearly unalike.] There is no conflict here. No sacrifice is possible |
| Tx:26.51 | in it. Yet it appears some are more true than others, although this | clearly makes no sense at all. All that a hierarchy of illusions can |
| Tx:26.54 | separating off is symbolized in your perception by a body which is | clearly separate and a thing apart. Yet what this symbol represents |
| Tx:26.74 | its meaning will be clear. This is not reason, for it is unjust and | clearly hints at punishment until the time of liberation is at hand. |
| Tx:27.62 | to injure you. Here is the world's demented version of salvation | clearly shown. Like to a dream of punishment in which the dreamer is |
| Tx:27.63 | The choice will not be difficult, because the problem is absurd when | clearly seen. No one has difficulty making up his mind to let a |
| Tx:27.70 | What choices can be made between two states, but one of which is | clearly recognized? Who could be free to choose between effects when |
| Tx:29.10 | instead of looking on it as an enemy? Why does an easy path, so | clearly marked it is impossible to lose the way, seem thorny, rough, |
| Tx:31.66 | be impossible. But concepts are not difficult to change. One vision, | clearly seen, that does not fit the picture as it was perceived |
| W1:34.1 | conditions that prevail in the other way of seeing. Peace of mind is | clearly an internal matter. It must begin with your own thoughts and |
| W1:42.7 | Any thought that is | clearly related to the idea is suitable. You may, in fact, be |
| W1:43.11 | your mind wandering, if you begin to be aware of thoughts which are | clearly out of accord with today's idea, or if you seem to be unable |
| W1:69.8 | you are at last joining your will to God's. Try to keep the thought | clearly in mind that what you undertake with God must succeed. Then |
| W1:73.12 | After reminding yourself of this and determining to keep your will | clearly in mind, tell yourself with gentle firmness and quiet |
| W1:132.8 | not exist because what they behold must be the truth, and yet it | clearly contradicts the world. And some will find it in this course |
| W1:133.5 | until you had considered all of them in time and not been brought so | clearly to the place where there is but one choice that must be made. |
| W1:138.10 | of unawareness and is brought to light. Who can decide between the | clearly seen and the unrecognized? Yet who can fail to make a choice |
| W1:160.10 | and thus refusing to accept the gift of sight by which his Self is | clearly recognized, his home remembered, and salvation come. |
| W1:161.12 | symbol of the rest, and ask salvation of him. See him first as | clearly as you can in that same form to which you are accustomed. See |
| M:17.2 | the teacher gives to those who need his aid? Here is his gift most | clearly given him. For he will give only what he has chosen for |
| M:17.4 | It may be merely slight irritation, perhaps too mild to be even | clearly recognized. Or it may also take the form of intense rage |
| M:17.7 | guilt, which you have hidden but have not let go. Each one says | clearly to your frightened mind, “You have usurped the place of God. |

| W1:65.14 | Sometimes | close your eyes as you practice, and sometimes keep them open and |
| W1:72.14 | we have not listened to His Voice. We have used our grievances to | close our eyes and stop our ears. Now we would see and hear and |

| W1:95.14 | Then | close your eyes and tell yourself again, slowly and thoughtfully, |

| W1:70.12 | them you have been looking for it. It is not there. It is past the | clouds and in the light beyond. Remember that you will have to go |
| W1:70.12 | in the light beyond. Remember that you will have to go through the | clouds before you can reach the light. But remember also that you |
| W1:70.13 | salvation have failed you, surely you do not want to remain in the | clouds looking vainly for idols there when you could so easily walk |
| W1:70.13 | so easily walk on into the light of real salvation. Try to pass the | clouds by whatever means appeals to you. If it helps you, think of me |
| W1:162.1 | made. By them it disappears, and all things seen within its misty | clouds and vaporous illusions vanish as these words are spoken. For |
| W2:256.1 | be unsure of who he is? And who would yet remain asleep in heavy | clouds of doubt about the holiness of him whom God created sinless? |
| M:4.24 | And above all are all things welcoming, for threat is gone. No | clouds remain to hide the face of Christ. Now is the goal achieved. |

| Tx:3.76 | This is the only sense in which God and His Souls are not | co-creators. The belief that they are is implicit in the “self |
| Tx:4.42 | more fatherless than you are. Your ego and your Soul will never be | co-creators, but your Soul and your Creator will always be. Be |
| Tx:7.2 | thought. Creation would therefore be limited, and you would not be | co-creators with God. As God's creative Thought proceeds from Him to |
| Tx:7.5 | God extends outward beyond limits and beyond time, and you who are | co-creators with Him extend His Kingdom forever and beyond limit. |
| Tx:7.7 | Holy Trinity itself. He is the Prime Creator, because He created His | co-creators. Because He did, time applies neither to Him nor to what |

co-exist (4) | ||
| Tx:9.53 | answer to the ego because it is true. Littleness and grandeur cannot | co-exist, nor is it possible for them to alternate in your awareness. |
| Tx:22.29 | reason and the ego are contradictory. Nor is it possible for them to | co-exist in your awareness. And reason's goal is to make plain and |
| M:12.6 | Oneness and sickness cannot | co-exist. God's teachers choose to look on dreams a while. It is a |
| M:27.3 | the sun. The grimness of the symbol is enough to show it cannot | co-exist with God. It holds an image of the Son of God in which he is |

coerces (1) | ||
| Tx:8.10 | That is why the ego is the denial of free will. It is never God who | coerces you because He shares His Will with you. His Voice teaches |
coercion (4) | ||
| Tx:2.79 | in which you are doing what you do not will. This arouses a sense of | coercion, which usually produces rage. The rage then invades the mind |
| Tx:3.63 | comes from a totally fallacious belief that you are under the | coercion of judgment. You do not need judgment to organize your life, |
| Tx:30.29 | to make them. That is really all. The first rule, then, is not | coercion but a simple statement of a simple fact. You will not make |
| Tx:30.30 | on anything. Let this be understood, and you can see there cannot be | coercion here nor grounds for opposition that you may be free. There |
coercive (2) | ||
| Tx:4.95 | forms of perceived demands may be classified or judged by the ego as | coercive communication which must be disrupted, the response of |
| Tx:10.12 | not know it. Whenever what the Holy Spirit tells you appears to be | coercive, it is only because you do not recognize your own will. |

| Tx:2.50 | misperception of themselves. Egocentricity and communion cannot | coexist. Even the terms are contradictory. |
| Tx:2.99 | Two concepts which cannot | coexist are “nothing” and “everything.” To whatever extent one is |

| Tx:7.63 | cannot exist. Commitment to either must be total, since they cannot | coexist in your minds without splitting them. If they cannot coexist |
| Tx:7.63 | cannot coexist in your minds without splitting them. If they cannot | coexist in peace and if you want peace, you must give up the idea of |
| Tx:11.89 | the Father can be remembered only in peace. Love and guilt cannot | coexist, and to accept one is to deny the other. Guilt hides Christ |
| Tx:14.27 | process of thinking whereby two systems of belief which cannot | coexist are both maintained. It has been recognized that if they were |

| Tx:14.37 | you. Lay no gifts other than this upon your altars, for nothing can | coexist beside it. Here your meager offerings are brought together |
| Tx:17.46 | the structure of the relationship is so apparent that they cannot | coexist. Yet now the goal will not be changed. Set firmly in the |

cognition (4) | ||
| Tx:3.30 | We have been emphasizing perception and have said very little about | cognition as yet, because you are confused about the difference |
| Tx:3.30 | the difference between them. The reason we have dealt so little with | cognition is because you must get your perceptions straightened out |
| Tx:3.35 | on the basis of knowledge, you are really confusing perception and | cognition. Knowledge brings the mental strength for creative thinking |
| Tx:3.61 | loss of peace. Judgment is the process on which perception, but not | cognition, rests. We have discussed this before in terms of the |
cognitive (1) | ||
| Tx:3.41 | questions but not of perceiving valid answers because these are | cognitive and cannot be perceived. The endless speculation about the |

| Tx:8.76 | there is no point in considering them. The function of truth is to | collect data which are true. There is no point in trying to make |

| Tx:17.39 | better picture into the wrong frame and so combine what cannot be | combined, accept this and be glad: these pictures are each framed |

| Tx:1.36 | Miracles come from the below or subconscious level. Revelations | come from the above or superconscious level. The conscious level is |

| Tx:4.67 | and I assure you that it is knowledge, means that Christ must | come into your minds and heal them. Although I am not attacking your |

| Tx:4.86 | much you are indebted to the whole Sonship, which includes me, you | come as close to knowledge as perception ever can. The gap is then so |
| Tx:4.90 | grateful to God for what He created. Through your gratitude, you can | come to know each other, and one moment of real recognition makes all |
| Tx:4.91 | As you | come closer to a brother, you do approach me and, as you withdraw |

| Tx:5.1 | Depression is often contagious but, although it may affect those who | come in contact with it, they do not yield to the influence |
| Tx:5.11 | close to knowledge that it calls it forth; or better, allows it to | come. We have spoken before of the higher or the “true” perception, |
| Tx:5.28 | only one way. You are the light of the world with me. Rest does not | come from sleeping but from waking. The Holy Spirit is the call to |
| Tx:5.30 | Voice. Having given this invitation to the Holy Spirit, I could | come to provide the model for how to think. Psychology has become the |
| Tx:5.43 | to salvation, because He holds the remembrance of things past and to | come. He holds this gladness gently in your minds, asking only that |
| Tx:5.49 | was adopting a policy of sharing without a real foundation. I have | come to give you the foundation, so your own thoughts can make you |
| Tx:5.79 | When I said, “I am | come as a light into the world,” I surely came to share the light |
| Tx:5.95 | fully aware of the fact that the undoing process, which does not | come from you, is nevertheless within you because God placed it |
| Tx:6.20 | had not felt guilty, they never could have quoted me as saying, “I | come not to bring peace but a sword.” This is clearly the exact |
| Tx:6.58 | but will merely remind them that the night is over and the light has | come? You do not inform them that the nightmares which frightened |
| Tx:6.58 | understand they need not be afraid of dreams. Then when bad dreams | come, they will call on the light themselves to dispel them. |
| Tx:7.28 | need to be vigilant against this idea, because all your conflicts | come from it. It is the belief that conflicting interests are |
| Tx:7.33 | and certainty is of God according to His laws. Both, therefore, | come from the same Source, [because] inspiration comes from the Voice |
| Tx:7.33 | for God, and certainty comes from the laws of God. Healing does not | come directly from God, Who knows His creations as perfectly whole. |
| Tx:7.52 | you who perceive only this, because you perceive only what is true. | Come therefore unto me and learn of the truth in you. The mind we |
| Tx:7.88 | you will have laid aside all anger and all attack, because they | come from an attempt to project responsibility for your own errors. |
| Tx:8.26 | I am | come as a light into a world that does deny itself everything. It |
| Tx:8.29 | you will to have it of me, you must give it. Rehabilitation does not | come from anyone else. You can have guidance from without, but you |
| Tx:8.43 | I am | come to tell you that the choice of which is true is not yours. If it |

| Tx:9.56 | that has no witnesses? What good can come of it? And if no good can | come of it, the Holy Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot transform |
| Tx:9.99 | Son is everywhere. Look with peace upon your brothers, and God will | come rushing into your heart in gratitude for your gift to Him. |
| Tx:10.3 | of His thought system, the clearer the light becomes. The closer you | come to [the foundation of] the ego's thought system, the darker and |
| Tx:10.4 | foundation without shrinking, you will also have looked upon ours. I | come to you from our Father to offer you everything again. Do not |
| Tx:10.19 | with the Fatherhood of God in him? And yet the invitation must | come from you, for you have surely learned that whom you invite as |
| Tx:10.36 | Christ is at God's altar, waiting to welcome His Son. But | come wholly without condemnation, for otherwise you will believe that |
| Tx:10.36 | to enter, but you cannot bar the door which Christ holds open. | Come unto me who holds it open for you, for while I live it cannot be |
| Tx:11.28 | do not understand that they dwell in abundance and that salvation is | come. |
| Tx:11.55 | comes from self-extension, so does the perception of self-value | come from the projection of loving thoughts outward. Make the world |
| Tx:11.69 | by its messengers. If you make love manifest, its messengers will | come to you because you invited them. |
| Tx:11.72 | will surround you because you called upon them and they will | come to you. I have heard your call and I have answered it, but you |
| Tx:11.77 | how can you find it except through itself? Offer it and it will | come to you because it is drawn to itself. But offer attack and it |
| Tx:12.14 | you go into the blackness of the ego's foundation, the closer you | come to the love that is hidden there. And it is this that frightens |
| Tx:12.25 | which death might indicate could only have been futile if it must | come to this and needs this to prove that it was. You question |
| Tx:12.39 | look beyond it. It is given you to learn how to deny insanity and | come forth from your private world in peace. |
| Tx:12.41 | for this, light must be excluded. Dreams disappear when light has | come and you can see. |
| Tx:12.56 | awareness is narrowed to yourself. And that is why the nightmares | come. You dream of isolation because your eyes are closed. You do not |
| Tx:12.62 | you even here because you love it. And what you call with love will | come to you. Love always answers, being unable to deny a call for |
| Tx:13.5 | into the darkness and enabling the world to see. For light must | come into the darkened world to make Christ's vision possible even |
| Tx:13.25 | where you would always find Atonement. The end of guilt will never | come as long as you believe there is a reason for it. For you must |
| Tx:13.48 | give what you have not. If, then, you offer blessing, it must have | come first to yourself. And you must also have accepted it as yours, |
| Tx:13.61 | unlearned for you. And then begin to learn the joyous lessons that | come quickly on the firm foundation that truth is true. For what is |
| Tx:13.62 | darkness. For, like your brothers, you do not realize the light has | come and freed you from the sleep of darkness. |
| Tx:14.15 | must be shared, for therein lies everything that makes it holy. | Come gladly to the holy circle, and look out in peace on all who |
| Tx:14.15 | outside. Cast no one out, for this is what he seeks, along with you. | Come, let us join him in the holy place of peace, which is for all of |
| Tx:14.23 | all is carefully concealed. We must open all doors and let the light | come streaming through. There are no hidden chambers in God's temple. |
| Tx:14.23 | temple. Its gates are open wide to greet His Son. No one can fail to | come where God has called him if he close not the door himself upon |
| Tx:14.27 | you do not want to what you do. You will realize that salvation must | come to you this way if you consider what dissociation is. |
| Tx:14.48 | order of difficulty which stamps the miracle as something that must | come from elsewhere, not from here. From the world's viewpoint, this |
| Tx:14.74 | for peace and who would have it. Make way for peace, and it will | come. For understanding is in you, and from it peace must come. |
| Tx:14.74 | it will come. For understanding is in you, and from it peace must | come. |
| Tx:15.17 | of peace is eternal because it is wholly without fear. It will | come, being the lesson God gives you through the Teacher He has |
| Tx:15.42 | it yours, for you are not ready to share it with Him. And it cannot | come into a mind that has decided to oppose it. For the holy instant |
| Tx:15.63 | It is through us that peace will | come. Join me in the idea of peace, for in ideas minds can |
| Tx:15.102 | the Heaven within and accept it as the sign the time of Christ has | come. He comes demanding nothing. No sacrifice of any kind of anyone |
| Tx:16.3 | is only to remember this—you do not want anything you value to | come of the relationship. You will neither to hurt it nor to heal it |
| Tx:16.16 | and honor His witnesses, who bring you the glad tidings He has | come. It is true, just as you fear, that to acknowledge Him is to |
| Tx:16.16 | in clinging to it and denying the evidence for truth? For you have | come too near to truth to renounce it now, and you will yield to its |
| Tx:16.29 | side and wait for you will not draw you safely across. For you will | come where you would be and where your Self awaits you. |
| Tx:16.33 | seek it desperately but not in the peace in which it would gladly | come quietly to them. And when they find the fear of death is still |
| Tx:16.35 | perceive hatred within and are afraid of it. Yet peace will never | come from the illusion of love, but only from its reality. |
| Tx:16.36 | which seems very real to you, but which does not exist. You have | come very close to truth, and only this stands between you and the |
| Tx:16.67 | it made of your relationships. Now no one need suffer, for you have | come too far to yield to the illusion of the beauty and holiness of |
| Tx:16.68 | instant speed you on the way, as it will surely do if you but let it | come to you. |
| Tx:16.79 | Love. Be an ally of God and not the ego in seeking how Atonement can | come to you. His help suffices, for His Messenger understands how to |
| Tx:17.20 | unholy relationship in which the hatred is remembered, yet there to | come alive as the relationship is given to Him Who gives it life and |
| Tx:17.25 | ego. Thought systems are but true or false, and all their attributes | come simply from what they are. Only the Thoughts of God are true. |
| Tx:17.50 | will seem at times to have no purpose. A sense of aimlessness will | come to haunt you and to remind you of all the ways you once sought |
| Tx:17.52 | see that in it rests salvation. Condemn salvation not, for it has | come to you. And welcome it together, for it has come to join you |
| Tx:17.52 | not, for it has come to you. And welcome it together, for it has | come to join you together in a relationship in which all the Sonship |
| Tx:17.58 | the first thing to consider, very simply, is, “What do I want to | come of this? What is it for?” The clarification of the goal belongs |
| Tx:17.58 | approach is evident. The ego does not know what it wants to | come of it. It is aware of what it does not want, but only that. It |
| Tx:17.61 | of itself. If you experience peace, it is because the truth has | come to you, and you will see the outcome truly, for deception cannot |
| Tx:17.63 | And peace will not be experienced except in fantasy. Truth has not | come because faith has been denied, being withheld from where it |
| Tx:17.67 | will call this forth, for you will see that peace and faith will not | come separately. What situation can you be in without faith and |
| Tx:17.73 | Spirit's goal are set apart from loneliness because the truth has | come. Its call for faith is strong. Use not your faithlessness |
| Tx:17.75 | But rise you not against it, for against your opposition it cannot | come. |
| Tx:18.2 | as different. One would unite; the other separate. Nothing can | come between what God has joined and what the Holy Spirit sees as |
| Tx:18.2 | joined and what the Holy Spirit sees as one. But everything seems to | come between the fragmented relationships the ego sponsors to destroy. |
| Tx:18.5 | from it a world of total unreality had to emerge. What else could | come of it? Its fragmented aspects are fearful enough, as you begin |
| Tx:18.11 | shining upon it! Heaven beholds it and rejoices that you have let it | come to you. [And God Himself is glad that your relationship is as it |
| Tx:18.18 | nor do you realize that the emotions which the dream produces must | come from you. It is the figures in the dream and what they do that |
| Tx:18.19 | place. It is the means by which you try to make your sleeping dreams | come true. From this you do not awaken. The special relationship] is |
| Tx:18.21 | It will be a happy dream, and one which you will share with all who | come within your sight. Through it, the blessing which the Holy |
| Tx:18.23 | is no dream. Its coming means that you have chosen truth, and it has | come because you have been willing to let your special relationship |
| Tx:18.32 | be holy. It is the answer. The desire and the willingness to let it | come precedes its coming. You prepare your minds for it only to the |
| Tx:18.33 | that shadows surround it. That is why you came. If you could | come without them, you would not need the holy instant. Come to it |
| Tx:18.33 | If you could come without them, you would not need the holy instant. | Come to it not in arrogance, assuming that you must achieve the state |
| Tx:18.34 | with His Will. You do not need the strength of willingness to | come from you, but only from His Will. |
| Tx:18.35 | The holy instant does not | come from your little willingness alone. It is always the result of |
| Tx:18.36 | it. That is but to confuse your role with God's. Atonement cannot | come to those who think that they must first atone, but only to those |
| Tx:18.44 | Happy dreams | come true, not because they are dreams, but only because they are |
| Tx:18.46 | is impossible, so is it equally impossible that the holy instant | come to either of you without the other. And it will come to both at |
| Tx:18.46 | holy instant come to either of you without the other. And it will | come to both at the request of either. |
| Tx:18.62 | lifted for you, to welcome you to openness of mind and freedom. | Come to this place of refuge, where you can be yourself in peace. Not |
| Tx:18.72 | you will not see the grandeur which surrounds you. God cannot | come into a body, nor can you join Him there. Limits on love will |
| Tx:18.79 | surrounds your little kingdom, waiting at the barrier you built to | come inside and shine upon the barren ground. See how life springs up |
| Tx:18.79 | by one into this holy place, but they will not depart as they had | come, alone. The love they brought with them will stay with them, as |
| Tx:18.81 | Love's answer is inevitable. It will | come because you came without the body and interposed no barriers |
| Tx:18.82 | fully at your weak request. You do not recognize that love has | come because you have not yet let go of all the barriers you hold |
| Tx:18.83 | cloud your eyes and keep you sightless. Yet He Whom you welcomed has | come to you and would welcome you. He has waited long to give you |
| Tx:18.98 | And when the memory of God has | come to you in the holy place of forgiveness, you will remember |
| Tx:19.14 | has raised unto Himself and both of you. Lay faithlessness aside and | come to it together. There will you see the miracle of your |
| Tx:19.36 | is now a temple of healing—a place where all the weary ones can | come and find rest. Here is the rest that waits for all after the |
| Tx:19.66 | the quiet communion in which the Father and the Son are joined. Oh | come ye faithful to the holy union of the Father and Son in you! And |
| Tx:19.70 | Here is your choice, and it is free. But all that lies in it will | come with it, and what you think you are can never be apart from it. |
| Tx:19.84 | death see not how often and how loudly they call to it and bid it | come to save them from communication. For death is seen as safety, |
| Tx:19.96 | of things beyond you, forces you cannot control, and thoughts that | come to you against your will. It is your will to look on this. No |
| Tx:19.99 | to look on this too soon. This is the place to which everyone must | come when he is ready. Once he has found his brother, he is ready. |
| Tx:19.105 | Here is the holy place of resurrection to which we | come again; to which we will return until redemption is accomplished |
| Tx:20.6 | it ready to receive the gifts it wants by offering them to those who | come unto its chosen home or those it would attract to it. And there |
| Tx:20.14 | Walk with him now rejoicing, for the savior from illusions has | come to greet you and lead you home with him. |
| Tx:20.15 | to one another the freedom and the strength to lead you there. And | come before each other's holy altar where the strength and freedom |
| Tx:20.58 | But we have also said the means to meet the Holy Spirit's goal will | come from the same Source as does His purpose. Being so simple and |
| Tx:20.67 | Vision will | come to you at first in glimpses, but they will be enough to show you |
| Tx:20.69 | Spirit's vision and to rejoice in along with Him. For peace will | come to all who ask for it with real desire and sincerity of purpose, |
| Tx:20.77 | of vision? And after vision, who is there who could refuse what must | come after? Think but an instant just on this—you can behold the |
| Tx:21.17 | by events outside of him. It is impossible that the happenings that | come to him were not his choice. His power of decision is the |
| Tx:21.28 | from your Father, you made in secret, and the instant of release has | come to you. All its effects are gone because its source has been |
| Tx:21.39 | way. It is like saying that the moon and sun are one because they | come with night and day, and so they must be joined. Yet sight of one |
| Tx:21.45 | been waiting for the birth of freedom, the acceptance of release to | come to you. And now you recognize that it was not the ego that |
| Tx:21.47 | of peace. For it remembers Heaven, and now it sees that Heaven has | come to earth at last, from which the ego's rule has kept it out so |
| Tx:21.47 | last, from which the ego's rule has kept it out so long. Heaven has | come because it found a home in your relationship on earth. And earth |
| Tx:21.55 | threatens dissociation as much as all of it. And all of it will | come with any part. Here is the part you can accept. What reason |
| Tx:21.58 | You have | come very close to this. Faith and belief have shifted, and you have |
| Tx:21.58 | never ask. Does not your reason tell you now the question must have | come from something that you do not know but must belong to you? |
| Tx:21.72 | they know not their enemy, except they hate him. In hatred they have | come together but have not joined each other. For had they done so, |
| Tx:21.87 | who see the final question is necessary to the rest, as peace must | come to those who choose to heal and not to judge. |
| Tx:22.1 | on yourselves, so long enslaved. Rejoice whom God hath joined have | come together and need no longer look on sin apart. No two can look |
| Tx:22.2 | where each one thinks the other has what he has not. They | come together, each to complete himself and rob the other. They stay |
| Tx:22.12 | you who taught him what he knows because you knew it. He could not | come to anyone but you, never to “something else.” Where Christ has |
| Tx:22.38 | When you | come to the place where the branch in the road is quite apparent, you |
| Tx:22.41 | as weary now as once you were. How thankful will they be to see you | come among them, offering Christ's forgiveness to dispel their faith |
| Tx:22.49 | Force is irresistible in truth. What, then, must happen when they | come together? Can the illusion of immovability be long defended from |
| Tx:22.56 | Children of peace, the light has | come to you. The light you bring you do not recognize, and yet you |
| Tx:23.6 | Look on it lovingly, and see the light of Heaven in it. So will you | come to understand all that is given you. In kind forgiveness will |
| Tx:23.7 | The memory of God comes to the quiet mind. It cannot | come where there is conflict, for a mind at war against itself |
| Tx:23.44 | salvation is impossible cannot uphold a quiet, calm assurance it has | come. Forgiveness cannot be withheld a little. Nor is it possible to |
| Tx:24.2 | alternative. The truth arises from what He knows. And your decisions | come from your beliefs as certainly as all creation rose in His Mind |
| Tx:24.3 | to take its place. And now must war, the substitute for peace, | come with the one alternative that you can choose for love. Your |
| Tx:24.6 | itself. But what is different calls for judgment, and this must | come from someone “better,” someone incapable of being like what he |
| Tx:24.20 | You have | come far along the way of truth—too far to falter now. Just one |
| Tx:24.20 | Leave all illusions of yourself outside this place to which you | come in hope and honesty. |
| Tx:24.32 | joy stand there beside the bier on which they sleep and call them to | come forth and waken from their dream of death. Yet they hear |
| Tx:24.47 | a war with love, consider this: the holy Lord of Heaven has Himself | come down to you to offer you your own completion. What is His is |
| Tx:24.48 | becomes your certainty. And where is doubt when certainty has | come? |
| Tx:24.69 | does not exceed your own, except to say that what is yours will | come to you when you are ready. Here are the means and purpose |
| Tx:24.70 | that you want to be yourself. It is the means to make your wish | come true. It gives the eyes with which you look on it, the hands |
| Tx:25.1 | made manifest to those who know Him not, that He may call to them to | come to Him and see Him where they thought their bodies were. Then |
| Tx:25.27 | it alone. [Nor need he stay more than an instant.] For he has | come with Heaven's Help within him ready to lead him out of darkness |
| Tx:25.34 | tired hearts that look on sin and beat its sad refrain. From you can | come their rest. From you can rise a world they will rejoice to look |
| Tx:25.73 | could they call forth to speak on his behalf? And who would | come to plead for him and not against his life? No justice would be |
| Tx:26.1 | nothing attached to anything beyond itself. All seeming entities can | come a little nearer or go a little farther off but cannot join. |
| Tx:26.9 | It is your special function to ensure the door be opened that he may | come forth to shine on you and give you back the gift of freedom by |
| Tx:26.27 | once sin was believed to be. And here does every light of heaven | come to be rekindled and increased in joy. For here is what was lost |
| Tx:26.29 | there and sing their song of gratitude and praise. And as they | come to you to be complete, so will you go with them. For no one |
| Tx:26.34 | eternal passed away in Heaven too soon for anything to notice it had | come. What disappeared too quickly to affect the simple knowledge of |
| Tx:26.38 | unreal. Such is the justice your ever-loving Father has ensured must | come to you. And from your own unfairness to yourself has He |
| Tx:26.39 | Let the dead and gone be peacefully forgotten. Resurrection has | come to take its place. And now you are a part of resurrection, not |
| Tx:26.41 | The shadow voices do not change the laws of time or of eternity. They | come from what is past and gone and hinder not the true existence of |
| Tx:26.44 | in power of attack, in hurt and harm, in sacrifice and death has | come to you. For no one can make one illusion real and still escape |
| Tx:26.70 | between the time its purpose is made yours and its effects will | come to you. In this form is the error still obscured that is the |
| Tx:26.73 | at now. Why wait till they unfold in time and fear they may not | come, although already there? You have been told that everything |
| Tx:26.76 | time is merely a denial of the fact that consequence and cause must | come as one. Look not to time but to the little space between you |
| Tx:26.79 | and withering have passed forever from the land where They have | come. |
| Tx:26.80 | hundred or a thousand years to Them, or tens of thousands? When They | come, time's purpose is fulfilled. What never was passes to |
| Tx:26.80 | is fulfilled. What never was passes to nothingness when They have | come. What hatred claimed is given up to love, and freedom lights up |
| Tx:26.81 | for this gift of what has been withheld so long. For They have | come to gather in Their Own. What has been locked is opened; what was |
| Tx:26.82 | earth is where an ancient hatred has become a present love. And They | come quickly to the living temple, where a home for Them has been set |
| Tx:26.82 | has been set up. There is no place in Heaven holier. And They have | come to dwell within the temple offered them, to be Their |
| Tx:26.84 | ancient scars are healed within His sight. An ancient miracle has | come to bless and to replace an ancient enmity that came to kill. In |
| Tx:26.84 | forever be. Now is the Holy Spirit's purpose done. For They have | come! For They have come at last! |
| Tx:26.84 | is the Holy Spirit's purpose done. For They have come! For They have | come at last! |
| Tx:27.2 | that he has been condemned. And what to you has been unfair will | come to him in righteousness. The unjust vengeance that you suffer |
| Tx:27.8 | of them if they enjoy their benefits or not. The end of life must | come, whatever way that life be spent. And so take pleasure in the |
| Tx:27.11 | been removed, is Heaven free to be remembered. Here its peace can | come and perfect healing take the place of death. The body can become |
| Tx:27.19 | miracle obeys; that healing sees no specialness at all. It does not | come from pity but from love. And love would prove all suffering is |
| Tx:27.35 | A Power wholly limitless has | come, not to destroy, but to receive Its own. There is no choice of |
| Tx:27.41 | the meaning of the question does the meaningfulness of the answer | come. Here is it possible to separate your wishes from the answer, so |
| Tx:27.45 | this possible. But if you are afraid of healing, then it cannot | come through you. The only thing that is required for a healing is a |
| Tx:27.46 | lifted up and comforted. There is no sadness where a miracle has | come to heal. And nothing more than just one instant of your love |
| Tx:27.48 | Come to the holy instant and be healed, for nothing that is there | |
| Tx:27.58 | has no effects. And this it proves because its own effects have | come to take their place. It matters not the name by which you called |
| Tx:27.68 | you in any way request them for yourself. This is how all illusions | come about. The one who makes them does not see himself as making |
| Tx:27.74 | fading from your sight, although your eyes are closed. A smile has | come to lighten up your sleeping face. The sleep is peaceful now, for |
| Tx:27.82 | cannot intrude upon eternity. It is a joke to think that time can | come to circumvent eternity, which means there is no time. |
| Tx:27.85 | their cause. And by His judgment are effects removed. Perhaps you | come in tears, but hear Him say, “My brother, Holy Son of God, behold |
| Tx:28.11 | returns to them. Their own remembering is quiet now, and what has | come to take its place will not be wholly unremembered afterwards. |
| Tx:28.15 | the causeless not? And where is sacrifice, when memory of God has | come to take the place of loss? What better way to close the little |
| Tx:28.17 | effects, which are as limitless as is itself. Yet must all healing | come about because the mind is recognized as not within the body, and |
| Tx:28.30 | protected, cherished, and upheld by firm belief, lest God should | come to bridge the little gap that leads to Him. Fight not His coming |
| Tx:28.33 | will brush them all aside and thus make room for Him Who wills to | come and bridge His Son's returning to Himself. |
| Tx:28.35 | for your Father and your Self. The door is open that all those may | come who would no longer starve and would enjoy the feast of plenty |
| Tx:28.35 | And they will meet with your invited Guests the miracle has asked to | come to you. |
| Tx:28.45 | I thank you, Father, knowing you will | come to close each little gap that lies between the broken pieces of |
| Tx:28.46 | What then would you perceive within the gap? The seeds of sickness | come from the belief that there is joy in separation, and its giving |
| Tx:28.48 | did not give them your support. Where fear has gone, there love must | come because there are but these alternatives. Where one appears, the |
| Tx:28.60 | no gap between Himself and what He is cannot be false. What will can | come between what must be one, and in Whose wholeness there can be no |
| Tx:28.64 | and make fast the bolts. The wind will topple it, and rain will | come and carry it into oblivion. |
| Tx:29.1 | For He must be deceptive in His Love. Be wary, then; let Him not | come too close, and leave a gap between you and His love through |
| Tx:29.3 | a gap between you, lest he turn again into an enemy. [Let him | come close to you, and you jumped back; as you approached, he |
| Tx:29.7 | sometimes gone. Thus is love seen as treacherous because it seems to | come and go uncertainly and offer no stability to you. You do not see |
| Tx:29.12 | one. Where they are causeless, their effects are gone, and love must | come wherever they are not. Why are you not rejoicing? You are free |
| Tx:29.13 | Your Guest has | come. You asked Him, and He came. You did not hear Him enter, for you |
| Tx:29.14 | you have received. Yet He Who entered in but waits for you to | come where you invited Him to be. There is no other place where He |
| Tx:29.23 | that the darkness may be lifted from your mind. When light has | come to him through your forgiveness, he will not forget his savior, |
| Tx:29.34 | The quiet that surrounds you dwells in him, and from this quiet | come the happy dreams in which your hands are joined in innocence. |
| Tx:29.36 | some way calls for death. And those who serve the lord of death have | come to worship in a separated world, each with his tiny spear and |
| Tx:29.39 | will disappear, and night and day will be no more. All things that | come and go, the tides, the seasons, and the lives of men; all things |
| Tx:29.56 | What is an idol? Nothing! It must be believed before it seems to | come to life and given power that it may be feared. Its life and |
| Tx:29.57 | the world where the impossible has happened. Here the deathless | come to die, the all-encompassing to suffer loss, the timeless to be |
| Tx:29.57 | and the Son of God, as perfect, sinless and as loving as his Father, | come to hate a little while, to suffer pain, and finally to die. |
| Tx:29.63 | is the worship of despair and terror and the dream from which they | come. Judgment is an injustice to God's Son, and it is justice that |
| Tx:30.44 | Thoughts seem to | come and go. Yet all this means is that you are sometimes aware of |
| Tx:30.63 | love of God. Yet is the love of Christ accepted first. And then will | come the knowledge They are One. |
| Tx:30.64 | hand you hold was waiting but for you to join Him. Now that you have | come, would He delay in showing you the way that He must walk with |
| Tx:30.92 | appearances beyond the hope of change is that the miracle cannot | come forth from you consistently. For you have asked it be withheld |
| Tx:30.93 | seeing this. And you will see the Christ in him because you let Him | come to you. And when He has appeared to you, you will be certain you |
| Tx:31.17 | does he ask you for? And listen well! For he is asking what will | come to you because you see an image of yourself and hear your voice |
| Tx:31.22 | Be very still an instant. | Come without all thought of what you ever learned before and put |
| Tx:31.22 | has been made. Nothing will hurt you in this holy place to which you | come to listen silently and learn the truth of what you really want. |
| Tx:31.22 | asked to learn. But as you hear it, you will understand you need but | come away without the thoughts you did not want and that were never |
| Tx:31.24 | is not the form you answer to. He asks and you receive, for you have | come with but one purpose—that you both may learn you love each |
| Tx:31.35 | world can offer seem to be quite large in number, but the time must | come when everyone begins to see how like they are to one another. |
| Tx:31.35 | not the lesson in itself. The lesson has a purpose, and in this you | come to understand what it is for. |
| Tx:31.38 | fight against this step is to defeat your purpose here. You did not | come to learn to find a road the world does not contain. The search |
| Tx:31.43 | the learning of the world is for. This is its purpose—that you | come without a self and make one as you go along. And by the time you |
| Tx:31.49 | not given, and they must be made. Not one of them is true, and many | come from feverish imaginations, hot with hatred and distortions born |
| Tx:31.51 | the world as well as you to have such prescience in the things to | come. |
| Tx:31.59 | can teach no images of you unless you want to learn them. There will | come a time when images have all gone by, and you will see you know |
| Tx:31.69 | them sometimes, but will not see them as meaningless. And so they | come in fearful form, with content still concealed, to shake your |
| Tx:31.74 | merely look on darkness and perceive the terrified imaginings that | come from guilty thoughts and concepts born of fear. And what you see |
| Tx:31.85 | For He has | come, and He is asking this. |
| Tx:31.92 | it occurs but disappear as mists before the sun. A miracle has | come to heal God's Son and close the door upon his dreams of |
| Tx:31.95 | Your Sons. My faith in them is Yours. I am as sure that they will | come to me as You are sure of what they are and will forever be. They |
| Tx:31.97 | And now we say “Amen.” For Christ has | come to dwell in the abode You set for Him before time was, in calm |
| W1:9.2 | clear a little of the darkness away, and understanding will finally | come to lighten every corner of the mind which has been cleared of |
| W1:15.2 | beginning of real vision. You can be certain that real vision will | come quickly when this has occurred. |
| W1:26.3 | you can no longer believe in yourself. A false image of yourself has | come to take the place of what you are. |
| W1:30.5 | applying today's idea with your eyes closed, using whatever subjects | come to mind and looking within rather than without. Today's idea |
| W1:31.3 | your inner world, merely let whatever thoughts cross your mind | come into your awareness, each to be considered for a moment and then |
| W1:31.3 | Try not to establish any thought of hierarchy among them. Watch them | come and go as dispassionately as possible. Do not dwell on any one |
| W1:42.7 | understanding some of your own thoughts contain. Let them | come without censoring unless you realize your mind is merely |
| W1:42.7 | intrude. You may also reach a point where no thoughts at all seem to | come to mind. If such interferences occur, open your eyes and repeat |
| W1:42.8 | for today's exercises. Try merely to step back and let the thoughts | come. If you find this difficult, it is better to spend the practice |
| W1:46.6 | After you have applied the idea for today to all those who have | come to mind, tell yourself, |
| W1:47.1 | of any problem and to resolve it in such a way that only good can | come of it? What is there in you that gives you the recognition of |
| W1:50.4 | your consciousness. Repeat it, think about it, let related thoughts | come to help you recognize its truth, and allow peace to flow over |
| W1:58.2 | I see. From my holiness does the perception of the real world | come. Having forgiven, I no longer see myself as guilty. I can accept |
| W1:61.7 | eyes closed if the situation permits. Let a few related thoughts | come to you, and repeat the idea to yourself if your mind wanders |
| W1:62.8 | Let related thoughts | come freely, for your heart will recognize these words, and in your |
| W1:63.5 | your eyes, you will probably find it easier to let related thoughts | come to you in the minute or two which you should devote to |
| W1:64.9 | to reflecting on this with closed eyes. Related thoughts will | come to help you if you remember the crucial importance of your |
| W1:68.8 | see you as my friend that I may remember you are part of me and | come to know myself. |
| W1:70.1 | temptation not to believe the idea for today. Salvation seems to | come from anywhere except from you. So, too, does the source of |
| W1:70.9 | My salvation comes from me. It cannot | come from anywhere else. |
| W1:70.11 | My salvation cannot | come from any of these things. My salvation comes from me, and only |
| W1:75.1 | The light has | come. You are healed and you can heal. The light has come. You are |
| W1:75.1 | The light has come. You are healed and you can heal. The light has | come. You are saved, and you can save. You are at peace, and you |
| W1:75.1 | go. Darkness and turmoil and death have disappeared. The light has | come. |
| W1:75.2 | long dream of disaster. There are no dark dreams now. The light has | come. Today the time of light begins for you and everyone. It is a |
| W1:75.2 | in its passing. Today we see a different world because the light has | come. |
| W1:75.3 | be given what we desire. We will to see the light; the light has | come. |
| W1:75.4 | to be seen at last. Sight is given us, now that the light has | come. |
| W1:75.6 | The light has | come. I have forgiven the world. |
| W1:75.8 | The light has | come. I have forgiven the world. |
| W1:75.9 | with Him. Wait patiently for Him. He will be there. The light has | come. You have forgiven the world. |
| W1:75.10 | From this time forth you will see differently. Today the light has | come. And you will see the world that has been promised you since |
| W1:75.12 | The light has | come. I have forgiven the world. |
| W1:75.14 | The light has | come. I have forgiven you. |
| W1:75.15 | beginning of your vision and the sight of the real world which has | come to replace the unforgiven world you thought was real. |
| W1:76.7 | Magic imprisons, but the laws of God set free. The light has | come because there are no laws but His. |
| W1:83.5 | [66] My happiness and my function are one. All things that | come from God are one. They come from Oneness and must be received as |
| W1:83.5 | and my function are one. All things that come from God are one. They | come from Oneness and must be received as one. Fulfilling my function |
| W1:83.5 | received as one. Fulfilling my function is my happiness because both | come from the same Source. And I must learn to recognize what makes |
| W1:88.2 | [75] The light has | come. In choosing salvation rather than attack, I merely choose to |
| W1:88.2 | and illusion, between what is there and what is not. The light has | come. I can but choose the light, for it has no alternative. It has |
| W1:88.4 | This cannot show me darkness, for the light has | come. The light in you is all that I would see, [name]. I would see |
| W1:90.2 | a grievance; the solution is a miracle. And I invite the solution to | come to me through my forgiveness of the grievance and my welcome of |
| W1:91.13 | of God and all His thoughts. It is from Them your strength will | come. It is through Their strong support that you will feel the |
| W1:92.2 | These are among the many magical beliefs that | come from the conviction you are a body and the body's eyes can see. |
| W1:93.11 | idols of evil and sinfulness you have made to replace it. Let it | come into its own. Here you are. This is you. And light and joy and |
| W1:95.17 | to lift the veil of darkness from the world and let the light in you | come through to teach the world the truth about itself. You are One |
| W1:96.15 | If you succeed, the thoughts that | come to you will tell you you are saved and that your mind has found |
| W1:98.2 | of purpose and with thanks that doubt is gone and surety has | come. We have a mighty purpose to fulfill and have been given |
| W1:98.4 | yet unborn will hear the call we heard and answer it, when they have | come to make their choice again. We do not choose but for ourselves |
| W1:98.12 | with Him. Repeat today's idea while you wait for the glad time to | come to you again. Repeat it often, and do not forget each time you |
| W1:98.12 | you do so, you have let your mind be readied for the happy time to | come. |
| W1:101.5 | The exercises teach sin is not real, and all that you believe must | come from sin will never happen, for it has no cause. Accept |
| W1:104.1 | but idle dreams. They are your right because of what you are. They | come to you from God, Who cannot fail to give you what He wills. Yet |
| W1:104.7 | altar, where His gifts of peace and joy are welcome and to which we | come to find what has been given us by Him. We come in confidence |
| W1:104.7 | and to which we come to find what has been given us by Him. We | come in confidence today, aware that what belongs to us in truth is |
| W1:104.8 | We will not let ourselves lose sight of them between the times we | come to seek for them where He has laid them. This reminder will we |
| W1:105.10 | let all bars to peace and joy be lifted up, and what is yours can | come to you at last. So tell yourself “God's peace and joy are mine,” |
| W1:106.4 | dreaming ends. They end the dream instead and last forever, for they | come from God to His dear Son, whose other name is you. |
| W1:107.1 | to nothingness, returning whence they came. From dust to dust they | come and go, for only truth remains. |
| W1:107.3 | intimation of the state your mind will rest in when the truth has | come. |
| W1:107.4 | there could be no fear, no doubt, and no attack. When truth has | come, all pain is over, for there is no room for transitory thoughts |
| W1:107.4 | beliefs in the ephemeral. They have no place because the truth has | come, and they are nowhere. They cannot be found, for truth is |
| W1:107.5 | When truth has | come, it does not stay a while to disappear or change to something |
| W1:107.5 | to something else. It does not shift and alter in its form, nor | come and go and go and come again. It stays exactly as it always was, |
| W1:107.5 | It does not shift and alter in its form, nor come and go and go and | come again. It stays exactly as it always was, to be depended on in |
| W1:107.6 | When truth has | come, it harbors in its wings the gift of perfect constancy and love |
| W1:107.7 | Truth does not | come and go nor shift nor change, in this appearance now and then in |
| W1:108.12 | pause a while, expecting to receive the gift you gave, and it will | come to you in the amount in which you gave it. You will find you |
| W1:109.2 | suffering for all the world and everyone who ever came and yet will | come to linger for a while. Here is the thought in which the Son of |
| W1:109.4 | You call to all to join you in your rest, and they will hear and | come to you because you rest in God. They will not hear another voice |
| W1:109.6 | still and thankfully accept its healing. No more fearful dreams will | come now that you rest in God. Take time today to slip away from |
| W1:109.10 | Open the temple doors, and let them | come from far across the world, and near as well—your distant |
| W1:110.3 | created you. You need no thought but just this one to let redemption | come to light the world and free it from the past. |
| W1:R3.6 | the Holy Spirit uses will not fail. The wisdom of your mind will | come to your assistance. Give direction at the start, and then lean |
| W1:R3.13 | with each of these ideas will bring such large advances that we | come from these reviews with learning gains so great that we begin |
| W1:119.3 | all things today, that I may learn how to accept the truth in me and | come to recognize my sinlessness. |
| W1:123.1 | Today let us be thankful. We have | come to gentler pathways and to smoother roads. There is no thought |
| W1:123.4 | not go alone. And we give thanks that in our solitude a Friend has | come to speak the saving Word of God to us. |
| W1:124.2 | is our Companion as we walk the world a little while. And those who | come to follow us will recognize the way because the light we carry |
| W1:124.4 | No meaningless anxieties can | come between our faith and our awareness of His Presence. We are one |
| W1:124.6 | forms of suffering in anyone in times gone by and times as yet to | come, as easily as in the ones who walk beside them now. Their |
| W1:124.9 | be ready to accept the gain today. Yet sometime, somewhere, it will | come to you, nor will you fail to recognize it when it dawns with |
| W1:127.10 | it grow in strength and health to shed its blessing upon all who | come to learn to cast aside the world they thought was made in hate |
| W1:130.8 | recognize what it is you seek. You do not want illusions. And you | come to these five minutes emptying your hands of all the petty |
| W1:131.17 | His aid slip effortlessly past it to the light. Today that day has | come. Today God keeps His ancient promise to His holy Son, as does |
| W1:131.17 | does His Son remember his to Him. This is a day of gladness, for we | come to the appointed time and place where you will find the goal of |
| W1:131.18 | from dismal thoughts and meaningless laments. Salvation's time has | come. Today is set by Heaven Itself to be a time of grace for you and |
| W1:132.6 | as you change your mind. But it is pride that argues you have | come into a world quite separate from yourself, impervious to what |
| W1:133.12 | And so we | come to the criterion for choice which is the hardest to believe, |
| W1:133.12 | any guilt about your choice, you have allowed the ego's goals to | come between the real alternatives, and thus you do not realize there |
| W1:133.14 | pain. Heaven Itself is reached by empty hands and open minds, which | come with nothing to find everything and claim it as their own. We |
| W1:135.19 | knew that everything that happens, all events, past, present, and to | come, are gently planned by One Whose only purpose is your good? |
| W1:135.27 | hopelessness. Now is the light of hope reborn in you, for now you | come without defense to learn the part for you within the plan of |
| W1:136.15 | And we will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth to | come to us and set us free. |
| W1:136.16 | And truth will | come, for it has never been apart from us. It merely waits for just |
| W1:136.21 | thoughts, yield to judgment, or make plans against uncertainties to | come, you have again misplaced yourself, and made a bodily identity |
| W1:137.10 | how great your offering to all the world when you let healing | come to you. But you are never healed alone. And legions upon legions |
| W1:137.16 | place of all the foolish thoughts that ever were imagined. Now we | come together to make well all that was sick and offer blessing where |
| W1:138.2 | it is reflected in some form the world can understand. Truth cannot | come where it could only be perceived with fear, for this would be |
| W1:138.2 | to illusions. Opposition makes the truth unwelcome, and it cannot | come. |
| W1:139.1 | Here is the end of choice. For here we | come to a decision to accept ourselves as God created us. And what is |
| W1:139.6 | to be a home where those who claim they do not know themselves can | come to question what it is they are. |
| W1:139.7 | And they will | come again until the time Atonement is accepted, and they learn it is |
| W1:139.8 | senseless musings such as this. We have a mission here. We did not | come to reinforce the madness which we once believed in. Let us not |
| W1:140.4 | by forms the dream may take. Sickness where guilt is absent cannot | come, for it is but another form of guilt. Atonement does not heal |
| W1:140.5 | you who have been cured in God and not in idle dreams. For cure must | come from holiness, and holiness cannot be found where sin is |
| W1:140.11 | time when we can hear our Father speak to us. We hear Him now. We | come to Him today. |
| W1:R4.9 | charge of all the thoughts you will receive that day. They will not | come from you alone, for they will all be shared with Him. And so |
| W1:151.10 | Christ in all of them. You will no longer doubt that only good can | come to you who are beloved of God, for He will judge all happenings |
| W1:152.14 | our Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left will | come again to our awareness, grateful to restore His home to God as |
| W1:153.7 | is weakness. It proclaims you have denied the Christ and | come to fear His Father's anger. What can save you now from your |
| W1:153.11 | brothers choose as they have done. God has elected all, but few have | come to realize His Will is but their own. And while you fail to |
| W1:153.11 | the world in grim imprisonment. Nor will you learn that light has | come to you, and your escape has been accomplished. For you will not |
| W1:153.12 | ensured. The game of fear is gladly laid aside when children | come to see the benefits salvation brings. |
| W1:153.13 | sin and guilt, be happy now. That game is over. Now a quiet time has | come in which we put away the toys of guilt and lock our quaint and |
| W1:153.14 | escape, were but his own deluded fantasy. God's ministers have | come to waken him from the dark dreams this story has evoked in his |
| W1:153.17 | His Voice and learn what He would have us do the hour that is yet to | come, while thanking Him for all the gifts He gave us in the one gone |
| W1:153.21 | and strength and peace that shine from them to all their brothers | come from Him. These are His gifts to you. Defenselessness is all you |
| W1:155.2 | The world is an illusion. Those who choose to | come to it are seeking for a place where they can be illusions and |
| W1:155.3 | will remain awhile in evidence for those to look upon who chose to | come and have not yet rejoiced to find they were mistaken in the |
| W1:157.3 | of Heaven, though you will return to paths of learning. Yet you have | come far enough along the way to alter time sufficiently to rise |
| W1:157.6 | leaves a vision in our eyes which we can offer everyone that he may | come the sooner to the same experience in which the world is quietly |
| W1:157.7 | a little nearer its deliverance. And you who bring it light will | come to see the light more sure, the vision more distinct. |
| W1:157.8 | The time will | come when you will not return in the same form in which you now |
| W1:158.2 | vision can. The revelation that the Father and the Son are one will | come in time to every mind. Yet is that time determined by the mind |
| W1:158.4 | Time is a trick—a sleight of hand, a vast illusion in which figures | come and go as if by magic. Yet there is a plan behind appearances |
| W1:158.4 | which does not change. The script is written. When experience will | come to end your doubting has been set. For we but see the journey |
| W1:160.6 | him out and show him that he is no stranger now. The miracle will | come. For in his home his Self remains. It asked no stranger in and |
| W1:160.9 | Today we offer thanks that Christ has | come to search the world for what belongs to Him. His vision sees no |
| W1:160.10 | his Self is clearly recognized, his home remembered, and salvation | come. |
| W1:161.11 | have attempted earlier. Your readiness is closer now, and you will | come today nearer Christ's vision. If you are intent on reaching it, |
| W1:161.15 | you had seen as merely flesh and bone and recognize that Christ has | come to you. |
| W1:162.1 | and vaporous illusions vanish as these words are spoken. For they | come from God. |
| W1:162.6 | These words dispel the night, and darkness is no more. The light is | come today to bless the world, for you have recognized the Son of |
| W1:163.1 | envy, and all forms in which the wish to be as you are not may | come to tempt you. All such thoughts are but reflections of the |
| W1:163.2 | is real, inevitable, worthy of their trust. For it alone will surely | come. |
| W1:163.3 | of aspirations and of dreams. But death is counted on. For it will | come with certain footsteps when the time has come for its arrival. |
| W1:163.3 | on. For it will come with certain footsteps when the time has | come for its arrival. It will never fail to take all life as hostage |
| W1:164.1 | is the only time there is. And so today, this instant, now, we | come to look upon what is forever there—not in our sight, but in |
| W1:164.3 | On this day is grief laid by, for sights and sounds which | come from nearer than the world are clear to you who will today |
| W1:164.8 | and leave a clean and open space within your mind where Christ can | come and offer you the treasure of salvation. He has need of your |
| W1:165.5 | your blindness for the seeing eyes of Christ; your mind has | come to lay aside denial and accept the Thought of God as its |
| W1:166.9 | Your ancient fear has | come upon you now, and justice has caught up with you at last. |
| W1:166.12 | like Himself. The gifts you have are not for you alone. What He has | come to offer you, you now must learn to give. This is the lesson |
| W1:167.5 | Death cannot | come from life. Ideas remain united to their source. They can extend |
| W1:167.5 | be. As they were born, so will they then give birth. And where they | come from, there will they return. |
| W1:168.4 | the means by which this world will disappear, and vision first will | come with knowledge but an instant later. For in grace you see a |
| W1:168.6 | And He descends to meet us as we | come to Him, for what He has prepared for us He gives and we receive. |
| W1:168.7 | Your grace is given me. I claim it now. Father, I | come to You. And You will come to me who asks. I am the Son You love. |
| W1:168.7 | is given me. I claim it now. Father, I come to You. And You will | come to me who asks. I am the Son You love. |
| W1:169.1 | It is past learning yet the goal of learning, for grace cannot | come until the mind prepares itself for true acceptance. Grace |
| W1:169.9 | speak of things beyond and listen to words which explain what is to | come is past already. Yet what meaning can the words convey to those |
| W1:170.11 | Where does the totally insane belief in gods of vengeance | come from? Love has not confused its attributes with those of fear. |
| W1:R5.8 | you. For I share your doubts and fears a little while, that you may | come to me who recognize the road by which all fears and doubts are |
| W1:I2.3 | than this is needed. It will be enough to guarantee the rest will | come. |
| W1:182.11 | existence. Christ has called you friend and brother. He has even | come to you to ask your help in letting Him go home completed and |
| W1:182.11 | your help in letting Him go home completed and completely. He has | come as does a little child who must beseech his father for |
| W1:183.8 | do we give an invitation which can never be refused. And God will | come and answer it Himself. Think not He hears the little prayers of |
| W1:184.13 | can fail who seeks the meaning of the Name of God. Experience must | come to supplement the word. But first you must accept One Name for |
| W1:185.4 | bargain. And what bargain can give them the peace of God? Illusions | come to take His place. And what He means is lost to sleeping minds |
| W1:185.9 | choose God's peace, or you have asked for dreams. And dreams will | come as you requested them. Yet will God's peace come just as |
| W1:185.9 | And dreams will come as you requested them. Yet will God's peace | come just as certainly and to remain with you forever. It will not be |
| W1:186.6 | and helpless. Sin cannot tarnish the truth in you, and misery can | come not near the holy home of God. |
| W1:186.14 | These are the forms which never can deceive, although they | come from Formlessness Itself. Forgiveness is an earthly form of love |
| W1:188.8 | not let them stray. We let the light within our minds direct them to | come home. We have betrayed them, ordering that they depart from us. |
| W1:189.7 | before from anything. Forget this world, forget this course, and | come with wholly empty hands unto your God. |
| W1:189.9 | choose the way in which we go to Him. But we do choose to let Him | come. And with this choice we rest. And in our quiet hearts and open |
| W1:190.4 | Peace to such foolishness! The time has | come to laugh at such insane ideas. There is no need to think of them |
| W1:190.6 | it as a hospital for pain, a sickly place where living things must | come at last to die? |
| W1:190.9 | Lay down your arms and | come without defense into the quiet place where Heaven's peace holds |
| W1:191.10 | began. For time has lost its hold upon the world. The Son of God has | come in glory to redeem the lost, to save the helpless, and to give |
| W1:191.10 | Who could see the world as dark and sinful when God's Son has | come again at last to set it free? |
| W1:192.3 | the world. It has no meaning here. Forgiveness is the closest it can | come to earth. For being Heaven-borne, it has no form at all. Yet God |
| W1:193.14 | a thousand seeming obstacles to peace in just one day. Let mercy | come to you more quickly. Do not try to hold it off another day, |
| W1:193.16 | Each hour spend a little time today, and in the days to | come, in practicing the lesson in forgiveness in the form established |
| W1:194.8 | future in the hands of God. For thus you call the memory of Him to | come again, replacing all your thoughts of sin and evil with the |
| W1:194.9 | For in God's hands we rest untroubled, sure that only good can | come to us. If we forget, we will be gently reassured. If we accept |
| W1:196.12 | but you your mind can try to crucify. Yet your redemption, too, will | come from you. |
| W1:197.7 | thanks for you unto Himself. To everyone who lives will Christ yet | come, for everyone must live and breathe in Him. His Being in His |
| W1:198.6 | ever can be found upon this earth. His words are born in God, and | come to you with Heaven's love upon them. Those who hear His words |
| W1:198.6 | as one at last. And as this one will fade away, the Word of God will | come to take its place, for it will be remembered then and loved. |
| W1:198.9 | Today we practice letting freedom | come to make its home with you. The truth bestows these words upon |
| W1:198.15 | Today we | come still nearer to the end of everything that yet would stand |
| W1:198.15 | between this vision and our sight. And we are glad that we have | come this far and recognize that He Who brought us here will not |
| W1:198.15 | through Him today. Now is it time for your deliverance. The time has | come. The time has come today. |
| W1:198.15 | Now is it time for your deliverance. The time has come. The time has | come today. |
| W1:200.2 | This is the final point to which each one must | come at last, to lay aside all hope of finding happiness where there |
| W1:200.4 | Come home. You have not found your happiness in foreign places and in | |
| W1:200.10 | Now is there silence. Seek no further. You have | come to where the road is carpeted with leaves of false desires, |
| W1:R6.1 | the world from every form of bondage and invite the memory of God to | come again. |
| W2:I.2 | final step Himself. And we are sure His promises are kept. We have | come far along the road, and now we wait for Him. We will continue |
| W2:I.3 | We will continue with a central thought for all the days to | come. And we will use that thought to introduce our times of rest and |
| W2:I.4 | Now do we | come to Him with but His Word upon our minds and hearts. And wait for |
| W2:I.4 | of invitation that His Voice suggests, and then we wait for Him to | come to us. |
| W2:I.5 | fail. Sit silently and wait upon your Father. He has willed to | come to you when you have recognized it is your will He do so. And |
| W2:I.5 | have recognized it is your will He do so. And you could have never | come this far unless you saw, however dimly, that it is your will. |
| W2:I.10 | the need for practice almost done. For in this final section we will | come to understand that we need only call to God and all temptations |
| W2:I.11 | lessons and the periods of wordless, deep experience which should | come afterwards. These special thoughts should be reviewed each day, |
| W2:WF.2 | easily accessible to doubt, and further kept from reason. What can | come between a fixed projection and the aim that it has chosen as its |
| W2:221.1 | Father, I | come to You today to seek the peace that You alone can give. I come |
| W2:221.1 | I come to You today to seek the peace that You alone can give. I | come in silence. In the quiet of my heart, the deep recesses of my |
| W2:221.1 | I wait and listen for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me today. I | come to hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure |
| W2:222.2 | have no words except Your Name upon our lips and in our minds as we | come quietly into Your Presence now and ask to rest with You in peace |
| W2:WS.4 | Let us | come daily to this holy place and spend a while together. Here we |
| W2:WS.4 | pushing through the soil, the trees are budding now, and birds have | come to live within their branches. Earth is being born again in new |
| W2:WS.4 | is being born again in new perception. Night has gone, and we have | come together in the light. |
| W2:233.1 | cannot be obtained and wasting time in vain imaginings. Today I | come to You. I will step back and merely follow You. Be You the Guide |
| W2:235.1 | Will for me is only happiness to find that only happiness has | come to me. And I need but remember that His Love surrounds His Son |
| W2:237.2 | and His the ears which listen to the Voice of God today. Father, I | come to You through Him Who is Your Son and my true Self as well. |
| W2:241.1 | instant to the darkened world where its release is set. The day has | come when sorrows pass away and pain is gone. The glory of salvation |
| W2:241.2 | We have forgiven one another now, and so we | come at last to You again. Father, Your Son, who never left, returns |
| W2:242.2 | And so we give today to You. We | come with wholly open minds. We do not ask for anything that we may |
| W2:244.2 | And there we are in truth. No storms can | come into the hallowed haven of our home. In God are we secure. For |
| W2:244.2 | the hallowed haven of our home. In God are we secure. For what can | come to threaten God Himself or make afraid what will forever be a |
| W2:245.1 | peace with me. For I would save Your Son as is Your Will, that I may | come to recognize my Self. |
| W2:245.2 | all the world we give the message that we have received. And thus we | come to hear the Voice of God, Who speaks to us as we relate His |
| W2:246.2 | I will accept the way You choose for me to | come to You, my Father. For in that will I succeed because it is Your |
| W2:247.1 | shows me as the simple truth and I am healed completely. Brother, | come and let me look on you. Your loveliness reflects my own. Your |
| W2:WIS.5 | these sharp-edged children's toys? How soon will you be ready to | come home? Perhaps today? There is no sin. Creation is unchanged. |
| W2:253.1 | It is impossible that anything should | come to me unbidden by myself. Even in this world, it is I who rule |
| W2:254.1 | today I would but hear Your Voice. In deepest silence, I would | come to You to hear Your Voice and to receive Your Word. I have no |
| W2:254.1 | Your Voice and to receive Your Word. I have no prayer but this: I | come to You to ask You for the truth. And truth is but Your Will, |
| W2:256.2 | And so, our Father, would we | come to You in Your appointed way. We have no goal except to hear |
| W2:261.2 | Let me not seek for idols. I would | come, my Father, home to You today. I choose to be as You created me |
| W2:262.2 | are one would recognize this day the truth about ourselves. We would | come home and rest in unity. For there is peace, and nowhere else can |
| W2:264.1 | all things within Itself. Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We | come to You in Your own Name today, to be at peace within Your |
| W2:270.2 | The quiet of today will bless our hearts, and through them peace will | come to everyone. Christ is our eyes today. And through His sight, we |
| W2:WIC.4 | reaches from the Christ in you to all your dreams and bids them | come to Him to be translated into truth. He will exchange them for |
| W2:WIC.4 | of dreams. For when forgiveness rests upon the world and peace has | come to every Son of God, what could remain to keep things separate, |
| W2:271.1 | In Christ's sight, the world and God's creation meet, and as they | come together, all perception disappears. His kindly sight redeems |
| W2:276.1 | of who we are, of who our Father is, and for what purpose we have | come. And yet we need but to acknowledge Him Who gave His Word to us |
| W2:WIHS.4 | your Father's Love will not return to signify the end of dreams has | come. |
| W2:285.1 | Today I wake with joy, expecting but the happy things of God to | come to me. I ask but them to come and realize my invitation will be |
| W2:285.1 | but the happy things of God to come to me. I ask but them to | come and realize my invitation will be answered by the thoughts to |
| W2:286.1 | place! This is the day that has been chosen as the time in which I | come to understand the lesson that there is no need that I do |
| W2:288.1 | thought that leads the way to You and brings me to my goal. I cannot | come to You without my brother. And to know my Source, I first must |
| W2:290.1 | that begin to open see at last. And I would have Christ's vision | come to me this very day. What I perceive without God's own |
| W2:290.2 | With this resolve, I | come to You and ask Your strength to hold me up today while I but |
| W2:296.2 | easy reach and quick accomplishment. How gladly does the Holy Spirit | come to rescue us from hell when we allow His teaching to persuade |
| W2:298.2 | Father, I | come to You today, because I would not follow any way but Yours. You |
| W2:300.1 | be used to say that death and sorrow are the certain lot of all who | come here. For their joys are gone before they are possessed, or even |
| W2:WISC.4 | itself cannot affect. For everyone who ever came to die or yet will | come or who is present now is equally released from what he made. In |
| W2:302.1 | changes darkness into light, for fear must disappear when love has | come. Let me forgive Your holy world today that I may look upon its |
| W2:302.2 | fails in nothing. He the end we seek, and He the means by which we | come to Him. |
| W2:303.2 | Your Son is welcome, Father. He has | come to save me from the evil self I made. He is the Self that You |
| W2:305.1 | carries it to truth, no more to be the home of fear. For Love has | come and healed the world by giving it Christ's peace. |
| W2:305.2 | Help us today but to accept Your gift and judge it not. For it has | come to us to save us from our judgment on ourselves. |
| W2:306.2 | remembering Your holy gifts to us. In gratitude and thankfulness, we | come, with empty hands and open hearts and minds, asking but what You |
| W2:307.2 | this prayer, we enter silently into a state where conflict cannot | come because we join our holy will with God's in recognition that |
| W2:308.1 | I can be saved from time is now. For in this instant has forgiveness | come to set me free. The birth of Christ is now, without a past or |
| W2:308.1 | free. The birth of Christ is now, without a past or future. He has | come to give His present blessing to the world, restoring it to |
| W2:310.1 | You, Your gracious calling to Your holy Son, the sign Your grace has | come to me and that it is Your will that I be free today. |
| W2:312.1 | have chosen to behold. How surely, therefore, must the real world | come to greet the holy sight of anyone who takes the Holy Spirit's |
| W2:313.1 | fear has gone and where it was is love invited in. And love will | come wherever it is asked. This vision is Your gift. The eyes of |
| W2:313.1 | sees no sin in anything He looks upon. Now let His true perception | come to me that I may waken from the dream of guilt and look within |
| W2:313.2 | of Christ. How beautiful we are! How holy and how loving! Brother, | come and join with me today. We save the world when we are joined. |
| W2:315.1 | Each day a thousand treasures | come to me with every passing moment. I am blessed with gifts |
| W2:315.2 | I thank You, Father, for the many gifts that | come to me today and every day from every Son of God. My brothers are |
| W2:316.1 | open doors that not one gift is lost and only more are added. Let me | come to where my treasures are and enter in where I am truly welcome |
| W2:319.1 | opposes truth. But where there is no arrogance, the truth will | come immediately and fill up the space the ego left unoccupied by |
| W2:323.1 | of loss and sadness, all anxiety and doubt and freely let Your Love | come streaming in to his awareness, healing him of pain and giving |
| W2:327.1 | from my experience that this is true, and faith in Him must surely | come to me. This is the faith that will endure and take me farther |
| W2:327.1 | me still, awaiting but my call to give me all the help I need to | come to Him. |
| W2:338.1 | It needs but this to let salvation | come to all the world. For in this single thought is everyone |
| W2:WIM.3 | stands corrected in His sight, and what was meant to curse has | come to bless. Each lily of forgiveness offers all the world the |
| W2:342.2 | Brother, forgive me now. I | come to you to take you home with me. And as we go, the world goes |
| W2:345.2 | Peace to all seeking hearts today. The light has | come to offer miracles to bless the tired world. It will find rest |
| W2:347.1 | it is Your own. And He will speak for me, and call Your miracle to | come to me. |
| W2:352.1 | Forgiveness looks on sinlessness alone and judges not. Through this I | come to You. Judgment will bind my eyes and make me blind. Yet love, |
| W2:353.1 | mine alone, for He and I have joined in purpose. Thus has learning | come almost to its appointed end. A while I work with Him to serve |
| W2:FL.6 | We | come in honesty to Him and say we did not understand and ask Him to |
| W2:E.3 | telling you exactly what to do, how to direct your mind, and when to | come to Him in silence, asking for His sure direction and His certain |
| M:1.2 | They | come from all over the world. They come from all religions and from |
| M:1.2 | They come from all over the world. They | come from all religions and from no religion. They are the ones who |
| M:2.4 | it seems to be now. And thus it is that pupil and teacher seem to | come together in the present, finding each other as if they had not |
| M:2.5 | When pupil and teacher | come together, a teaching-learning situation begins. For the teacher |
| M:3.2 | if only for a moment. That moment will be enough. Salvation has | come. |
| M:4.1 | not at all alike. They do not look alike to the body's eyes, they | come from vastly different backgrounds, their experiences of the |
| M:4.8 | do! The teacher of God needs this period of respite. He has not yet | come as far as he thinks. Yet when he is ready to go on, he goes with |
| M:4.14 | who realize that harm can actually achieve nothing. No gain can | come of it. |
| M:4.15 | a way to Heaven? And who would choose the weakness that must | come from harm in place of the unfailing, all-encompassing, and |
| M:4.16 | Gentleness means that fear is now impossible, and what could | come to interfere with joy? The open hands of gentleness are always |
| M:4.16 | they are sure His Teacher goes before them, making sure no harm can | come to them. They hold His gifts and follow in His way because God's |
| M:4.20 | of all things in time, no outcome already seen or yet to | come can cause them fear. |
| M:4.23 | the mind against God's Teacher, so open-mindedness invites Him to | come in. As condemnation judges the Son of God as evil, so |
| M:5.9 | To them God's teachers | come to represent another choice which they had forgotten. The simple |
| M:5.9 | They stand for the alternative. With God's Word in their minds they | come in benediction, not to heal the sick but to remind them of the |
| M:8.3 | Where do all these differences | come from? Certainly they seem to be in the world outside. Yet it is |
| M:10.3 | of an inconceivably wide range of things, past, present, and to | come. One would have to recognize in advance all the effects of his |
| M:10.4 | is perfect. He does know all the facts, past, present, and to | come. He does know all the effects of His judgment on everyone and |
| M:10.5 | he came to judge, he comes to bless. Where now he laughs, he used to | come to weep. |
| M:10.6 | of sickening despair and fear of death—all these have | come of it. And now he knows that these things need not be. Not one |
| M:11.2 | Again we | come to the question of judgment. This time, ask yourself whether |
| M:12.3 | that truth would encounter in them. Do not forget that truth can | come only where it is welcomed without fear. So do God's teachers |
| M:12.4 | understand because of their Source. From this understanding will | come the recognition in this new teacher of God of what the body's |
| M:12.4 | really is for it. This lesson is enough to let the thought of unity | come in, and what is one is recognized as one. The teachers of God |
| M:12.6 | is the real function of God's teachers. They watch the dream figures | come and go, shift and change, suffer and die. Yet they are not |
| M:14.5 | world will end in joy because it is a place of sorrow. When joy has | come, the purpose of the world has gone. The world will end in peace |
| M:14.5 | world will end in peace because it is a place of war. When peace has | come, what is the purpose of the world? The world will end in |
| M:15.1 | could flee forever from the truth? But the Final Judgment will not | come until it is no longer associated with fear. One day each one |
| M:16.5 | position you prefer. Having gone through the workbook you must have | come to some conclusions in this respect. If possible, however, just |
| M:17.1 | well that he has asked for depression, pain, fear, and disaster to | come to him. Let him remember, then, it is not this that he would |
| M:17.2 | Nor should it be forgotten that the outcome that results will always | come to teacher and to pupil. How many times has it been emphasized |
| M:20.3 | to find it who but seeks out its conditions. God's peace can never | come where anger is, for anger must deny that peace exists. Who sees |
| M:21.5 | self-perception that he would leave behind. Judge not the words that | come to you, but offer them in confidence. They are far wiser than |
| M:23.7 | This course has | come from him, because his words have reached you in a language you |
| M:23.7 | because symbols must shift and change to suit the need. Jesus has | come to answer yours. In him you find God's Answer. Do you then teach |
| M:25.1 | and he will not be content to be delayed by the little ones that may | come to him on the way. |
| M:26.2 | all mistakes are recognized and overlooked by them. The time will | come when this is understood. And meanwhile they give all their gifts |
| M:28.2 | There is no sorrow still upon the earth. The joy of Heaven has | come upon it. |
| M:28.3 | and all mistakes undone. Attack is meaningless, and peace has | come. The goal of the curriculum has been achieved. Thoughts turn to |
| M:28.3 | of God. There is no opposition to the truth. And now the truth can | come at last. How quickly will it come as it is asked to enter and |
| M:28.3 | the truth. And now the truth can come at last. How quickly will it | come as it is asked to enter and envelop such a world! |
| M:29.2 | to answer these questions alone. Surely no teacher of God has | come this far without realizing that. The curriculum is highly |

| Tx:17.7 | seen anything so lovely. Nothing you see here, sleeping or waking, | comes near to such loveliness. And nothing will you value like unto |
| Tx:17.25 | Only the Thoughts of God are true. And all that follows from them | comes from what they are and is as true as is the holy Source from |
| Tx:17.61 | and cannot be without them, where peace is they must be. Truth | comes of itself. If you experience peace, it is because the truth has |
| Tx:18.23 | dream of waking is easily transferred to its reality. For this dream | comes from your will joined with the Will of God. And what this will |
| Tx:18.25 | As the light | comes nearer, you will rush to darkness, shrinking from the truth, |
| Tx:18.34 | does require that you be not content with less than greatness, which | comes not of you. Your difficulty with the holy instant arises from |
| Tx:18.67 | concentrate on this than to consider what you should do. When peace | comes at last to those who wrestle with temptation and fight against |
| Tx:18.67 | temptation and fight against the giving in to sin; when the light | comes at last into the mind given to contemplation; or when the goal |
| Tx:18.67 | or when the goal is finally achieved by anyone, it always | comes with just one happy realization: “I need do nothing.” |
| Tx:18.69 | the body ceases to demand attention. Into this place the Holy Spirit | comes and there abides. He will remain when you forget and the body's |
| Tx:18.78 | realize the life and joy which love would bring to it from where it | comes and where it would return with you. |
| Tx:19.88 | with terror and makes your body tremble and the cold sweat of fear | comes over it, remember it is always for one reason—the ego has |
| Tx:20.37 | In this world, God's Son | comes closest to himself in a holy relationship. There he begins to |
| Tx:21.23 | is not an instant of creation but of recognition. For recognition | comes of vision and suspended judgment. Then only is it possible to |
| Tx:21.29 | the other. Thus in the “fairness” you attempt to ease the guilt that | comes from the accepted purpose of the relationship. And that is why |
| Tx:21.70 | Do you not see that all your misery | comes from the strange belief that you are powerless? Being helpless |
| Tx:21.73 | as it attacks, so that it runs at once to find another and never | comes to rest in victory. And as it runs, it turns against itself, |
| Tx:21.77 | is the choice of whether to attack or heal. For healing | comes of power and attack of helplessness. Whom you attack you cannot |
| Tx:21.87 | confound its constancy because its own desire cannot be shaken. It | comes as surely unto those who see the final question is necessary to |
| Tx:22.15 | Christ | comes to what is like Himself; the same, not different. For He is |
| Tx:22.45 | reality. They go against what must be true. The opposition | comes from them and not reality. Reality opposes nothing. What merely |
| Tx:23.7 | The memory of God | comes to the quiet mind. It cannot come where there is conflict, for |
| Tx:23.30 | unless you know what it is for? And here a final principle of chaos | comes to the rescue. It holds there is a substitute for love. This is |
| Tx:24.10 | The fear of God and of each other | comes from each unrecognized belief in specialness. For each demands |
| Tx:24.48 | yourself. Christ has no doubt, and from His certainty His quiet | comes. He will exchange His certainty for all your doubts if you |
| Tx:24.61 | there is no alternative for Him to see. Out of His lack of conflict | comes your peace. And from His purpose comes the means for effortless |
| Tx:24.61 | Out of His lack of conflict comes your peace. And from His purpose | comes the means for effortless accomplishment and rest. |
| Tx:25.58 | the sin he sees within the world offer him less and less— until he | comes to understand it cost him his sanity and stands between him and |
| Tx:25.68 | and are afraid of love. And deep suspicion and the chill of fear | comes over them when they are told that they have never sinned. Their |
| Tx:25.75 | really happening within yourself. The understanding which you need | comes not of you but from a larger Self, so great and holy that He |
| Tx:26.28 | to lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God Himself | comes to receive each gift that brings him nearer to his home. Not |
| Tx:26.47 | possible. For when it once is possible, it must occur. All sickness | comes from separation. When the separation is denied, it goes. For it |
| Tx:26.73 | already there? You have been told that everything brings good that | comes from God. And yet it seems as if this is not so. Good in |
| Tx:26.80 | it into Heaven, where the lights grow ever brighter as each one | comes home. The incomplete is made complete again, and Heaven's joy |
| Tx:27.16 | What you would prove to him, you will believe. The power of witness | comes from your belief. And everything you say or do or think but |
| Tx:27.25 | purpose, being what it really is. From an idea of self as two, there | comes a necessary view of function split between the two. And what |
| Tx:28.11 | The miracle | comes quietly into the mind that stops an instant and is still. It |
| Tx:28.29 | effects. Healing is the effect of minds which join, as sickness | comes from minds which separate. |
| Tx:28.43 | his dream, has left the space between them vacant. And the Father | comes to join His Son the Holy Spirit joined. |
| Tx:29.8 | there is no gap behind which you can hide? There is a shock that | comes to those who learn their savior is their enemy no more. There |
| Tx:29.24 | the midst of dreams of desolation and disaster. See how eagerly he | comes and steps aside from heavy shadows that have hidden him and |
| Tx:29.42 | it be forgot in such a world, it is a little while till timelessness | comes quietly to take the place of time. |
| Tx:29.43 | His answer brings. Seek not outside yourself. For all your pain | comes simply from a futile search for what you want, insisting where |
| Tx:29.44 | No one who | comes here but must still have hope, some lingering illusion, or some |
| Tx:29.59 | the question has been asked. The world believes in idols. No one | comes unless he worshiped them and still attempts to seek for one |
| Tx:30.47 | always was. Surrounded by a stillness so complete no sound of battle | comes remotely near, it rests in certainty and perfect peace. Here is |
| Tx:31.34 | felt at once. The choice is not what will the ending be but when it | comes. |
| Tx:31.91 | to prevail, replacing all your weakness with the strength that | comes from God and that can never fail. And thus are miracles as |
| W1:17.1 | because you have no neutral thoughts. It is always the thought that | comes first, despite the temptation to believe that it is really the |
| W1:38.9 | unless a specific problem concerning you or someone else arises or | comes to mind. In that event, use the more specific form of |
| W1:57.6 | of the world with my brothers, I begin to understand that this peace | comes from deep within myself. The world I look upon has taken on the |
| W1:65.6 | that arises which would interfere with it. Note each one as it | comes to you with as little involvement or concern as possible, |
| W1:70.8 | today, adding a statement signifying your recognition that salvation | comes from nothing outside of you. You might put it this way: |
| W1:70.9 | My salvation | comes from me. It cannot come from anywhere else. |
| W1:70.11 | My salvation cannot come from any of these things. My salvation | comes from me, and only from me. |
| W1:70.14 | frequent practice periods today, remind yourself that your salvation | comes from you and nothing but your own thoughts can hamper your |
| W1:70.15 | My salvation | comes from me. Nothing outside of me can hold me back. Within me is |
| W1:72.7 | where angry animals seek for prey and mercy cannot enter, the ego | comes to save you. God made you a body. Very well. Let us accept this |
| W1:85.5 | [70] My salvation | comes from me. Today I will recognize where my salvation is. It is in |
| W1:90.5 | problems only because I am misusing time. I believe that the problem | comes first, and time must elapse before it can be worked out. I do |
| W1:91.2 | is not there. This follows from the premises from which the darkness | comes. Denial of light leads to failure to perceive it. Failure to |
| W1:92.5 | rule where God appointed that there should be light. Strength | comes from truth and shines with light its Source has given it; |
| W1:92.8 | not shift from night to day and back to darkness till the morning | comes again. The light of strength is constant, sure as love, forever |
| W1:96.5 | which serves the Spirit is at peace and filled with joy. Its power | comes from Spirit, and it is fulfilling happily its function here. |
| W1:96.9 | practicing will be a search for Him within your mind. Salvation | comes from this One Self through Him Who is the bridge between your |
| W1:96.12 | Salvation | comes from my One Self. Its thoughts are mine to use. |
| W1:96.17 | Each time today you tell your frantic mind salvation | comes from your One Self, you lay another treasure in your growing |
| W1:106.4 | of God's Word is kept. Hear and be silent. He would speak to you. He | comes with miracles a thousand times as happy and as wonderful as |
| W1:108.3 | perception, based upon one frame of reference from which one meaning | comes. |
| W1:109.8 | waking. And the time when rest will be the only thing there is | comes closer to all worn and tired minds, too weary now to go their |

| W1:110.5 | world. Practice today's idea with gratitude. This is the truth that | comes to set you free. This is the truth that God has promised you. |
| W1:113.3 | [96] Salvation | comes from my One Self. From my One Self, Whose knowledge still |

| W1:122.8 | world of safety and of peace. Forgiveness is the means by which it | comes to take the place of hell. In quietness it rises up to greet |
| W1:126.1 | sure direction. You would understand the means by which salvation | comes to you and would not hesitate to use it now. |
| W1:127.11 | with you and who came to learn what you must learn. And as he | comes to mind, give him this message from your Self: |
| W1:129.5 | back to see again the world you do not want. Here is the world that | comes to take its place as you unbind your mind from little things |
| W1:130.11 | see. Perception is consistent with your choice, and hell or Heaven | comes to you as one. |
| W1:131.1 | is the setting of his searching and the place to which he | comes to find stability? |
| W1:131.4 | that lies beyond the world and every worldly thought and one which | comes to you from an idea relinquished yet remembered, old yet new— |
| W1:132.1 | but when their source is raised to question that the hope of freedom | comes to him at last. |
| W1:132.14 | of God Himself and thus destroy His wholeness. Can a world which | comes from this idea be real? Can it be anywhere? Deny illusions, but |
| W1:132.19 | You need not realize that healing | comes to many brothers far across the world as well as to the ones |
| W1:133.17 | reaches unencumbered to the gate of Heaven, which swings open as he | comes. Should you begin to let yourself collect some needless burdens |
| W1:135.10 | conditions. And you will impose upon the body all the pain that | comes from the conception of the mind as limited and fragile, and |
| W1:135.25 | which remains unanswered yet in need of answering until the Answer | comes to you at last. |
| W1:135.28 | benefit you most. For you cannot conceive of all the happiness that | comes to you without your planning. Learn today. And all the world |
| W1:136.15 | no illusions can remain where it has been allowed to enter. And it | comes to any mind that would lay down its arms and cease to play with |
| W1:140.14 | us as we attend in silence and in joy. This is the day when healing | comes to us. This is the day when separation ends and we remember Who |
| W1:151.13 | the elements of truth in them. Let Him evaluate each thought that | comes to mind, remove the elements of dreams, and give them back to |
| W1:155.7 | and aims which will remain impossible. All this steps back as truth | comes forth in you to lead your brothers from the ways of death and |
| W1:158.9 | disappear because a vision of the holiness which lies beyond them | comes to take their place. It matters not what form they took nor how |
| W1:158.11 | It matters not when revelation | comes, for that is not of time. Yet time has still one gift to give |
| W1:159.3 | Christ's vision is a miracle. It | comes from far beyond itself, for it reflects eternal love and the |
| W1:160.2 | There is a stranger in our midst who | comes from an idea so foreign to the truth he speaks a different |
| W1:160.2 | regards as senseless. Stranger yet, he does not recognize to whom he | comes and yet maintains his home belongs to him, while he is alien |
| W1:165.4 | perceive how great the gift, how changed your mind will be before it | comes to you. Ask to receive, and it is given you. Conviction lies |
| W1:166.6 | road he walks. No one but has identified with him, for everyone who | comes here has pursued the path he follows and has felt defeat and |
| W1:166.13 | way for them to walk. Teach them by showing them the happiness that | comes to those who feel the touch of Christ and recognize God's |
| W1:167.12 | our life because we have one Source, a Source from Which perfection | comes to us, remaining always in the holy minds which He created |
| W1:168.3 | All steps but this we learn, instructed by His Voice. But finally He | comes Himself and takes us in His arms and sweeps away the cobwebs of |
| W1:169.6 | We cannot speak nor write nor even think of this at all. It | comes to every mind when total recognition that its will is God's has |
| W1:169.9 | no one in the world can understand. When revelation of your oneness | comes, it will be known and fully understood. Now we have work to do, |
| W1:169.10 | the rest depends on. As you take the role assigned to you, salvation | comes a little nearer each uncertain heart that does not beat as yet |
| W1:169.13 | Its coming is ensured. We ask for grace and for experience that | comes from grace. We welcome the release it offers everyone. We do |
| W1:170.11 | of Love Itself? The blood appears to be upon His lips; the fire | comes from Him. And He is terrible above all else, cruel beyond |
| W1:R5.9 | My resurrection | comes again each time I lead a brother safely to the place at which |
| W1:R5.15 | mind as needed to its purpose. We place faith in the experience that | comes from practice, not the means we use. We wait for the experience |
| W1:I2.2 | lifting brings. But the experience of freedom and of peace that | comes as you give up your tight control of what you see speaks for |
| W1:181.2 | your focus on your brother's sins, and you experience the peace that | comes from faith in sinlessness. This faith receives its only sure |
| W1:182.9 | a little child that you might learn of Him how strong is he who | comes without defenses, offering only love's messages to those who |
| W1:182.10 | For he must learn that what he would protect is but this Child, Who | comes defenseless and Who is protected by defenselessness. Go home |
| W1:183.3 | their mourning, and the tears of pain are dried as happy laughter | comes to bless the world. |
| W1:184.7 | is the teaching of the world. It is a phase of learning everyone who | comes must go through. But the sooner he perceives on what it rests, |
| W1:186.11 | clear and wholly unambiguous. There is no doubt of its validity. It | comes from One Who knows no error. And His Voice is certain of its |
| W1:193.9 | sin and rid the mind of fear. These are the words by which salvation | comes to all the world. |
| W1:196.11 | at last. Yet in this instant is the time as well in which salvation | comes. For fear of God has disappeared. And you can call on Him to |
| W2:227.2 | Son of God this day lays down his dreams. The Son of God this day | comes home again, released from sin and clad in holiness, with his |
| W2:232.1 | will be there to hear my call to You and answer me. As evening | comes, let all my thoughts be still of You and of Your Love, and let |
| W2:247.1 | suffer. For forgiveness is the only means whereby Christ's vision | comes to me. Let me accept what His sight shows me as the simple |
| W2:252.1 | all things within it in the calm of quiet certainty. Its strength | comes not from burning impulses which move the world but from the |
| W2:274.2 | A special blessing | comes to us today from Him Who is our Father. Give this day to Him |
| W2:WIRW.5 | And as we look upon a world forgiven, it is He Who calls to us and | comes to take us home, reminding us of our Identity which our |
| W2:291.2 | is quiet to receive the thoughts You offer me. And I accept what | comes from You instead of from myself. I do not know the way to You. |
| W2:310.1 | be. And what I will experience is not of time at all. The joy that | comes to me is not of days nor hours, for it comes from Heaven to |
| W2:310.1 | at all. The joy that comes to me is not of days nor hours, for it | comes from Heaven to Your Son. This day will be Your sweet reminder |
| W2:314.1 | From new perception of the world there | comes a future very different from the past. The future now is |
| W2:325.1 | upon, esteemed as real, and guarded as one's own. From insane wishes | comes an insane world. From judgment comes a world condemned. And |
| W2:325.1 | one's own. From insane wishes comes an insane world. From judgment | comes a world condemned. And from forgiving thoughts a gentle world |
| W2:325.1 | comes a world condemned. And from forgiving thoughts a gentle world | comes forth, with mercy for the holy Son of God, to offer him a |
| W2:327.2 | Your word is one with You. You give the means whereby conviction | comes, and surety of Your abiding Love is gained at last. |
| W2:346.2 | And when the evening | comes today, we will remember nothing but the peace of God. For we |
| W2:358.1 | You speak for God, and so You speak for me. And what You give me | comes from God Himself. Your Voice, my Father, then is mine as well, |
| M:2.4 | present, finding each other as if they had not met before. The pupil | comes at the right time to the right place. This is inevitable, |

coming (46) | ||
| Tx:4.66 | The first | coming of Christ is just another name for the creation, for Christ is |

| Tx:6.34 | The Holy Spirit uses time but does not believe in it. | Coming from God, He uses everything for good, but He does not believe |
| Tx:9.17 | the ego's time is borrowed from your eternity. This is the Second | Coming, which was made for you as the First was created. The Second |
| Tx:9.17 | Coming, which was made for you as the First was created. The Second | Coming is merely the return of sense. Can this possibly be fearful? |

| Tx:11.65 | what you invite. Your perception is the result of your invitation, | coming to you as you sent for it. Whose manifestations would you see? |
| Tx:11.71 | for the reality of your mind is the loveliest of God's creations. | Coming only from God, its power and grandeur could only bring you |
| Tx:13.74 | them because it is holy and will bring to them all that they need, | coming as naturally as peace that knows no limits. There is nothing |
| Tx:17.75 | is. Do not intrude upon it, do not attack it, do not interrupt its | coming. Let it encompass every situation and bring you peace. Not |
| Tx:18.23 | Yet Heaven is sure. This is no dream. Its | coming means that you have chosen truth, and it has come because you |
| Tx:18.31 | desire the power of God Himself, can you remain in darkness? You are | coming home together after a long and meaningless journey which you |
| Tx:18.32 | answer. The desire and the willingness to let it come precedes its | coming. You prepare your minds for it only to the extent of |
| Tx:18.33 | to it not in arrogance, assuming that you must achieve the state its | coming brings with it. The miracle of the holy instant lies in your |
| Tx:18.81 | body and interposed no barriers which would interfere with its glad | coming. In the holy instant, you ask of love only what it offers |
| Tx:19.12 | of the new perception sent forth to gather witnesses unto its | coming and to return their messages to you. Faith is as easily |
| Tx:19.43 | from you to all the world. And barriers will fall away before their | coming as easily as those which you would interpose will be |

| Tx:22.38 | you reached the branch, you will go nowhere. The whole purpose of | coming this far was to decide which branch you will take now. The way |
| Tx:22.43 | learn that it is theirs forever. All barriers disappear before their | coming, as every obstacle was finally surmounted which seemed to rise |
| Tx:23.51 | above, the choice is miracles instead of murder. And the perspective | coming from this choice shows you the battle is not real and easily |
| Tx:28.30 | come to bridge the little gap that leads to Him. Fight not His | coming with illusions, for it is His coming that you want above all |

| Tx:31.70 | what the body seems to be. The actions of the body are perceived as | coming from the “baser” part of you and thus of him as well. By |
| W1:R4.6 | more than can a child who throws a stick into the ocean change the | coming and the going of the tides, the warming of the water by the |
| W1:169.13 | them back to yourself. And revelation stands not far behind. Its | coming is ensured. We ask for grace and for experience that comes |
| W1:188.8 | We practice | coming nearer to the light in us today. We take our wandering |
| W2:I.7 | And now we wait in silence, unafraid and certain of Your | coming. We have sought to find our way by following the Guide You |
| W2:229.1 | need I seek no more. Love has prevailed. So still it waited for my | coming home that I will turn away no longer from the holy face of |
| W2:242.1 | that lead to God. This day I give to Him, for I would not delay my | coming home, and it is He Who knows the way to Him. |
| W2:WISC.1 | Christ's Second | Coming, which is sure as God, is merely the correction of mistakes |

| W2:WISC.3 | The Second | Coming ends the lessons which the Holy Spirit teaches, making way for |
| W2:WISC.3 | that will extend beyond itself and reaches up to God. The Second | Coming is the time in which all minds are given to the hands of |
| W2:WISC.4 | The Second | Coming is the one event in time which time itself cannot affect. For |
| W2:WISC.5 | Pray that this Second | Coming will be soon, but do not rest with that. It needs your eyes |

| M:21.5 | All these are judgments which have no value. They are his own, | coming from a shabby self-perception that he would leave behind. |

| Tx:14.23 | The Holy Spirit's function is entirely | communication. He therefore must remove whatever interferes with it |
| Tx:14.34 | place where God, united with His Son, speaks to His Son through Him. | Communication between what cannot be divided cannot cease. The holy |

| Tx:15.40 | to receive and give. It is the recognition that all minds are in | communication. It therefore seeks to change nothing, but merely to |
| Tx:15.41 | and keep them? The only way you could do that is to deny the perfect | communication that makes the holy instant what it is. You believe |
| Tx:15.41 | would share. And then you wonder why it is that you are not in full | communication with those around you and with God Who surrounds all of |
| Tx:15.42 | Every thought you would keep hidden shuts | communication off because you would have it so. It is impossible to |

| Tx:15.75 | communication. And if you think it is, you will feel guilty about | communication and will be afraid to hear the Holy Spirit, recognizing |
| Tx:15.76 | held there by guilt. And you will see safety in guilt and danger in | communication. For the ego will always teach that loneliness is |
| Tx:15.76 | ego will always teach that loneliness is solved by guilt and that | communication is the cause of loneliness. And despite the evident |
| Tx:15.77 | Forgiveness lies in | communication as surely as damnation lies in guilt. It is the Holy |

| Tx:15.77 | has been restored. And guilt, whose only purpose is to disrupt | communication, has no function here. |
| Tx:15.78 | and no private thoughts. The willingness to communicate attracts | communication to it and overcomes loneliness completely. There is |
| Tx:15.83 | form it takes. And so He has kept this channel open to receive His | communication to you and yours to Him. God does not understand your |

| Tx:15.91 | a means for getting anything, then there will be no interference in | communication, and your thoughts will be as free as God's. As you let |

| Tx:15.108 | it to the Father, Who gave it to me. For in the time of Christ, | communication is restored, and He joins us in the celebration of His |
| Tx:17.19 | the Holy Spirit bring His interpretation of the body as a means of | communication into relationships whose only purpose is separation |
| Tx:18.56 | illusion of yourself. The body is a limit imposed on the universal | communication which is an eternal property of mind. But the |
| Tx:18.56 | communication which is an eternal property of mind. But the | communication is internal. [It is not made up of different parts |
| Tx:19.57 | us apart? Mine was no greater value than yours; no better means for | communication of salvation, but not its Source. No one can die for |
| Tx:19.73 | no feeling. It transmits to you the feelings that you want. Like any | communication medium, the body receives and sends the messages that |
| Tx:19.76 | also be received to be truly given. For the Holy Spirit, too, is a | communication medium, receiving from the Father and offering His |
| Tx:19.83 | Death, were it true, would be the final and complete disruption of | communication which is the ego's goal. |
| Tx:19.84 | and how loudly they call to it and bid it come to save them from | communication. For death is seen as safety, the great dark savior |
| Tx:19.87 | What has been given you, even in its infancy, is in full | communication with God and you. In its tiny hands, it holds in |
| Tx:22.10 | your language. You do not understand it yet, only because your whole | communication is like a baby's. The sounds a baby makes and what he |
| Tx:22.13 | joined. Nor is it possible that anything not part of Him can join. | Communication must have been restored to those that join, for this |
| Tx:30.87 | How can | communication really be established while the symbols which are used |
| Tx:30.87 | with meaning. It must be forever unintelligible. This is not | communication. Your dark dreams are but the senseless, isolated |
| W1:49.1 | any way. The part of your mind in which truth abides is in constant | communication with God, whether you are aware of it or not. It is the |
| W1:72.2 | except through the body which was made to imprison it. The limit on | communication cannot be the best means to expand communication. Yet |

| W1:183.12 | Father's holy Name. In this eternal, still relationship, in which | communication far transcends all words and yet exceeds in depth and |
| W1:184.5 | this is what learning means—its one essential goal by which | communication is achieved and concepts can be meaningfully shared. |

| M:25.2 | It would be impossible to do so. The limits the world places on | communication are the chief barrier to direct experience of the Holy |

communications (2) | ||
| Tx:14.56 | to the Holy Spirit in you, so does the Holy Spirit translate His | communications through you so you can understand them. God has no |
| Tx:14.56 | through you so you can understand them. God has no secret | communications, for everything of Him is perfectly open and freely |
communion (21) | ||
| Tx:1.26 | willing to hide nothing, you will not only be willing to enter into | communion but will also understand peace and joy. Your commitment is |
| Tx:1.43 | truth. It thus dispels man's illusions about himself and puts him in | communion with himself and God. |
| Tx:1.45 | The Soul never loses its | communion with God. Only the mind needs Atonement. The miracle joins |
| Tx:2.50 | arises from their misperception of themselves. Egocentricity and | communion cannot coexist. Even the terms are contradictory. |
| Tx:3.60 | Perception is a separated state, and a perceiver does need healing. | Communion, not prayer, is the natural state of those who know. God |
| Tx:5.43 | understanding looks back to God in remembrance of me. He is in Holy | Communion always, and He is part of you. He is your Guide to |

| Tx:17.54 | The experience of an instant, however | compelling it may be, is easily forgotten if you allow time to close |

| Tx:2.39 | a limit on the need for the belief and ultimately to make learning | complete. The Atonement is the final lesson. Learning itself, like |
| Tx:2.104 | only to your readiness. Mastery of love involves a much more | complete confidence than either of you has attained. However, the |

| Tx:4.52 | as our Father created us. I will love you and honor you and maintain | complete respect for what you have made, but I will neither honor it |

| Tx:4.96 | direct communication with every aspect of creation because it is in | complete and direct communication with its Creator. |
| Tx:4.100 | But unless you take your part in the creation, His joy is not | complete because yours is incomplete. And this He does know. He knows |
| Tx:5.20 | the restoration of the integrity of the mind. When the Atonement is | complete and the whole Sonship is healed, there will be no call to |
| Tx:5.55 | My part in the Atonement is not | complete until you join it and give it away. As you teach, so shall |

| Tx:5.74 | The ego's decisions are always wrong, because they are based on a | complete fallacy which they were made to uphold. Nothing the ego |
| Tx:6.43 | Safety is the | complete relinquishment of attack. No compromise is possible in this. |
| Tx:6.68 | one you must take for yourself. It is not even necessary that you | complete the step yourself, but it is necessary that you turn in that |
| Tx:6.69 | however, they will be helped. Once they have chosen what they cannot | complete alone, they are no longer alone. |
| Tx:6.75 | escape this, and if you accept two thought systems which are in | complete disagreement, peace of mind is impossible. If you teach |
| Tx:7.6 | with you. To this the Holy Spirit leads you that your joy may be | complete, because the Kingdom of God is whole. We have said that the |
| Tx:7.85 | belief that by giving it out you have excluded it from within is a | complete distortion of the power of extension. |
| Tx:7.94 | in the Kingdom. Every Soul is fulfilling its function, and only | complete fulfillment is peace. |
| Tx:8.25 | If God's Will for you is | complete peace and joy, unless you experience only this you must be |
| Tx:8.25 | do not believe you are in Him. Yet He is all in all. His peace is | complete, and you must be included in it. His laws govern you, |
| Tx:8.68 | true. Free your minds from the belief that this is possible. In its | complete impossibility and your full awareness of its complete |
| Tx:8.68 | In its complete impossibility and your full awareness of its | complete impossibility lie your only hope for release. But what other |
| Tx:8.100 | The ego cannot ask the Holy Spirit for anything because there is | complete communication failure between them. Yet you can ask for |
| Tx:9.47 | in exchange for your return of what belongs to Him and renders Him | complete. |
| Tx:9.51 | of your reality literally drives the ego from your mind because of | complete lack of investment in it. Grandeur is totally without |
| Tx:9.73 | If you realized the | complete havoc this makes of your peace of mind, you could not make |
| Tx:10.19 | for beside your small willingness to make whole, He will lay His own | complete will and make yours whole. What can the Son of God not |
| Tx:10.24 | my children, if you knew what God wills for you, your joy would be | complete! And what He wills has happened, for it was always true. |
| Tx:10.45 | creation, not of autonomy. Your whole creative function lies in your | complete dependence on God, Whose function He shares with you. By His |
| Tx:10.59 | who believe in the resurrection will see it. The resurrection is the | complete triumph of Christ over the ego, not by attack but by |
| Tx:10.63 | he made or the God who created him. That is why his slavery is as | complete as his freedom, for he will obey only the god he accepts. |
| Tx:11.21 | I failed not in mine. Give me but a little trust in the name of the | complete trust I have in you, and we will easily accomplish the goal |
| Tx:11.52 | because the goal is not divided, and the means and the end are in | complete accord. You need offer only undivided attention. Everything |
| Tx:12.19 | total love, you will not be healed completely. Healing must be as | complete as fear, for love cannot enter where there is one spot of |
| Tx:13.2 | for in you is all knowledge. Perception at its loftiest is never | complete. Even the perception of the Holy Spirit, as perfect as |
| Tx:13.49 | offer you the testimony that you are blessed. If what you offer is | complete forgiveness, you must have let guilt go, accepting the |
| Tx:14.1 | knowing Him. Accepting His Son as guilty is denial of the Father so | complete that knowledge is swept away from recognition in the very |
| Tx:14.28 | endowed with firm belief. Bring them together, and the fact of their | complete incompatibility is instantly apparent. One will go because |
| Tx:15.19 | released through the Holy Spirit in a brother, if the release is | complete, is always recognized. He cannot be denied. As long as you |
| Tx:15.19 | as you remain uncertain, it can be only because you have not given | complete release. And because of this, you have not given one single |
| Tx:15.20 | own vision, you cannot supply. And here it is, all in this instant, | complete, accomplished, and given wholly. |
| Tx:15.32 | make no more gifts to offer to yourselves, for you will know you are | complete, in need of nothing, and unable to accept anything for |
| Tx:15.47 | salvation is the belief that separation is salvation. For it is the | complete equality of the Atonement in which salvation lies. How can |
| Tx:15.65 | This is the only love that is fully given and fully returned. Being | complete, it asks nothing. Being wholly pure, everyone joined in it |
| Tx:15.78 | communication to it and overcomes loneliness completely. There is | complete forgiveness here, for there is no desire to exclude anyone |
| Tx:15.78 | that your completion is God's, Whose only need is to have you be | complete. For your completion makes you His in your awareness. And |
| Tx:15.79 | that forgiveness is not loss but your salvation. And that in | complete forgiveness, in which you recognize that there is nothing to |
| Tx:15.89 | to linger here. For it is your will to be in Heaven, where you are | complete and quiet in such sure and loving relationships that any |
| Tx:15.99 | who but seems to offer kindness, but always to make the sacrifice | complete. |
| Tx:15.110 | you would accomplish. Nothing will be lacking, and you will make | complete and not destroy. Say and understand this: |
| Tx:16.37 | You seek but for your own completion, and it is they who render you | complete. The special love relationship is but a shabby substitute |
| Tx:16.37 | of the oneness of creation, without which you could never be | complete. No specialness can offer you what God has given and what |
| Tx:16.41 | in union with you. The journey that seemed to be endless is almost | complete, for what is endless is very near. You have almost |
| Tx:16.42 | At its center, and only there, you are safe forever because you are | complete forever. There is no veil the love of God in us together |
| Tx:16.47 | both the ego and the Holy Spirit accept it. They are, however, in | complete disagreement on what completion is and how it is |
| Tx:16.49 | relationship. This “self” seeks the relationship to make itself | complete. Yet when it finds the special relationship in which it |
| Tx:16.53 | nor ever will be completed. For the ritual of completion cannot | complete, and life arises not from death, nor Heaven from hell. |
| Tx:16.57 | every learning that would hurt you, God offers you correction and | complete escape from all its consequences. The decision whether or |
| Tx:16.69 | to give it to you completely. And your willingness need not be | complete because His is perfect. It is His task to atone for your |
| Tx:16.76 | illusions into the holy instant to hinder your full awareness of the | complete difference in all respects between your experience of truth |
| Tx:17.6 | in Whom all is brought to truth. [Salvation from separation will be | complete or will be not at all.] Be not concerned with anything |
| Tx:17.9 | in God's plan of Atonement. All else is learned, but this is given, | complete and wholly perfect. No one but Him Who planned salvation |
| Tx:17.9 | and wholly perfect. No one but Him Who planned salvation could | complete it thus. The real world, in its loveliness, you learn to |
| Tx:17.11 | The real world is attained simply by the | complete forgiveness of the old, the world you see without |
| Tx:17.21 | The Holy Spirit wills only to make His resolutions | complete and perfect, and so He seeks and finds the source of |
| Tx:17.35 | aspects of this thought system, for these aspects enclose the whole, | complete in every aspect. Death lies in this glittering gift. Let not |
| Tx:17.38 | Two gifts are offered you. Each is | complete and cannot be partially accepted. Each is a picture of all |
| Tx:17.42 | for in it they are one. For here is only healing, already | complete and perfect. For here is God, and where He is, only the |
| Tx:17.42 | and perfect. For here is God, and where He is, only the perfect and | complete can be. |
| Tx:17.47 | to its liking. Only a radical shift in purpose could induce a | complete change of mind about what the whole relationship is for. As |
| Tx:17.71 | which does not involve your whole relationship in every aspect and | complete in every part. You can leave nothing of yourself outside it |
| Tx:18.3 | fragmented perception from which the behavior stems. No one is seen | complete. The body is emphasized, with special emphasis on certain |
| Tx:18.24 | in which no ray of light could enter. And you sought a blackness so | complete that you could hide from truth forever in complete insanity. |
| Tx:18.24 | a blackness so complete that you could hide from truth forever in | complete insanity. What you forgot was simply that God cannot destroy |
| Tx:18.28 | And in your desire lies its accomplishment. Your desire is now in | complete accord with all the power of the Holy Spirit's will. No |
| Tx:18.72 | Him. The body is a tiny fence around a little part of a glorious and | complete idea. It draws a circle, infinitely small, around a very |
| Tx:18.78 | impartial in its giving, encompassing only to preserve and keep | complete what it would give. In your tiny kingdom, you have so |
| Tx:18.85 | Within its barricades is still a tiny segment of the Son of God, | complete and holy, serene and unaware of what you think surrounds it. |
| Tx:18.95 | learning ends there God begins, for learning ends before Him Who is | complete where He begins and where there is no end. It is not for us |
| Tx:19.8 | But illusions are always connected, as is truth. Each is united, a | complete thought system, but totally disconnected to each other. |
| Tx:19.8 | to each other. Where there is no overlap, there separation must be | complete. And to perceive this is to recognize where separation is |
| Tx:19.22 | wants; a world it rules, made up of bodies, mindless and capable of | complete corruption and decay. If this is a mistake, it can be undone |
| Tx:19.37 | both of you with glowing happiness and the calm awareness of | complete protection. And you will carry its message of love and |
| Tx:19.58 | have calls upon pain to fill your meager store and make your lives | complete. This is completion, as the ego sees it. For guilt creeps in |
| Tx:19.83 | so will it seem to be. Death, were it true, would be the final and | complete disruption of communication which is the ego's goal. |
| Tx:19.97 | lift up your eyes and look upon each other in innocence born of | complete forgiveness of each other's illusions and through the eyes |
| Tx:19.98 | walked beside him. And no one would dare to look on it without | complete forgiveness of his brother in his heart. Stand you here a |
| Tx:19.100 | upon each other with perfect faith and love and tenderness. Before | complete forgiveness, you still stand unforgiving. You are afraid of |
| Tx:19.107 | sins he thinks he sees within himself. Offer each other freedom and | complete release from sin here in the garden of seeming agony and |
| Tx:20.3 | be united in crucifixion and in death. Nor can the resurrection be | complete till your forgiveness rests on Christ, along with mine. A |
| Tx:20.33 | the rest. For in your part lies all of it, without which is no part | complete, nor is the whole completed without your part. The ark of |
| Tx:20.33 | to rest and to remember, without you? Except you be there, he is not | complete. And it is his completion that he remembers there. |
| Tx:21.14 | that you need do for vision, happiness, release from pain, and the | complete escape from sin, all to be given you. Say only this, but |
| Tx:21.54 | this must have an answer if the plan of God for your salvation is | complete. And it must be complete because its Source knows not of |
| Tx:21.54 | if the plan of God for your salvation is complete. And it must be | complete because its Source knows not of incompletion. Where would |
| Tx:21.65 | is one with you, in just an instant. And any instant serves to bring | complete correction of his errors and make him whole. The instant |
| Tx:21.65 | be healed, in that same instant is his whole salvation seen as | complete with yours. Reason is given you to understand that this is |
| Tx:21.89 | You who | complete God's Will and are His happiness, whose will is powerful as |
| Tx:22.2 | thinks the other has what he has not. They come together, each to | complete himself and rob the other. They stay until they think |
| Tx:22.21 | this course, for here the separation of you and the ego must be made | complete. For if you have the means to let the Holy Spirit's purpose |
| Tx:22.57 | When you have looked upon each other with | complete forgiveness from which no error is excluded and nothing kept |
| Tx:23.6 | this? For here is your salvation and your freedom. And it must be | complete if you would recognize it. |
| Tx:23.31 | Never is your possession made | complete. And never will your brother cease his attack on you for |
| Tx:23.43 | a little and give up the rest. Salvation gives up nothing. It is | complete for everyone. Let the idea of compromise but enter, and the |
| Tx:23.50 | God gave His Son, for your forgiveness of one another is not | complete as yet, and so it cannot be extended to all creation. Each |
| Tx:23.54 | past, their present, and their future always the same, eternally | complete, and wholly shared. They know it is impossible their |
| Tx:24.22 | not denied to him. But can it be that you have lost because he is | complete? What has been given him makes you complete, as it does him. |
| Tx:24.22 | have lost because he is complete? What has been given him makes you | complete, as it does him. God's love gave you to him and him to you |
| Tx:24.45 | home? He looked upon you first but recognized that you were not | complete. And so He sought for your completion in each living thing |
| Tx:24.48 | you and before, leading the way that He must go to find Himself | complete. His quietness becomes your certainty. And where is doubt |
| Tx:24.49 | is still and peace descends on it in gentleness and blessing so | complete that not one trace of conflict still remains to haunt you in |
| Tx:24.59 | eyes, you are a separate universe with all the power to hold itself | complete within itself, with every entry shut against intrusion and |
| Tx:25.7 | is framed in holiness and perfect purity, in love celestial and so | complete it wishes only that it may release all that it looks upon |
| Tx:25.20 | creation as the perfect Father that He is. And so His joy is made | complete when any part of Him joins in His praise, to share His joy. |
| Tx:25.20 | what he is. And all His thanks and gladness shine on you who would | complete His joy along with Him. And thus is yours completed. Not one |
| Tx:25.20 | can be seen by those who will to make their Father's happiness | complete and theirs along with His. The gratitude of God Himself is |
| Tx:25.22 | His Will is brought together as you join in will that you be made | complete by offering completion to your brother. See not in him the |
| Tx:25.26 | of perfect sinlessness. Nothing arises but is met with instant and | complete forgiveness. |
| Tx:25.41 | him for you! He has no need but this—that you allow him freedom to | complete the task God gave to him. Remembering but this—that what |
| Tx:25.46 | salvation he alone can fill—a part for only him. Nor is the plan | complete until he finds his special function and fulfills the part |
| Tx:25.46 | function and fulfills the part assigned to him to make himself | complete within a world where incompletion rules. |
| Tx:25.47 | salvation. Forgiveness is for all. But when it rests on all, it is | complete and every function of this world completed with it. Then is |
| Tx:25.77 | You have the right to all the universe—to perfect peace, | complete deliverance from all effects of sin, and to the life |
| Tx:25.77 | from all effects of sin, and to the life eternal, joyous and | complete in every way, as God appointed for His holy Son. This is the |
| Tx:26.2 | you see is based on “sacrifice” of oneness. It is a picture of a | complete disunity and total lack of joining. Around each entity is |
| Tx:26.2 | the wall. Each part must sacrifice the other part to keep itself | complete. For if they joined, each one would lose its own identity, |
| Tx:26.29 | their song of gratitude and praise. And as they come to you to be | complete, so will you go with them. For no one hears the song of |
| Tx:26.56 | Salvation, perfect and | complete, asks but a little wish that what is true be true; a little |
| Tx:26.56 | you to replace the world you see with Heaven, wholly perfect and | complete. What is forgiveness but a willingness that truth be true? |
| Tx:26.80 | grow ever brighter as each one comes home. The incomplete is made | complete again, and Heaven's joy has been increased because what is |
| Tx:27.35 | this appears to interfere with power unlimited and single thoughts, | complete and happy, without opposite. You do not know the peace of |
| Tx:27.50 | their different forms. All learning aims at transfer, which becomes | complete within two situations which are seen as one, for only common |
| Tx:28.45 | that lies between the broken pieces of Your holy Son. Your holiness, | complete and perfect, lies in every one of them. And they are joined |
| Tx:29.21 | by your perfection? Or are you the proof that He is perfect and | complete? Deny Him not His witness in the dream His Son prefers to |
| Tx:29.33 | function is. He was created that you might be whole, for only the | complete can be a part of God's completion, Which created you. |
| Tx:29.44 | that it seek for what he lacks and give him what would make himself | complete. And thus he wanders aimlessly about in search of something |
| Tx:29.48 | to the dream that you must find what is outside yourself to be | complete and happy. It is vain to worship idols in the hope of peace. |
| Tx:29.49 | in it a place of idols found outside yourself, with power to make | complete what is within by splitting what you are between the two. |
| Tx:29.53 | but substitutes for your reality. In some way, you believe they will | complete your little self [and let you walk in] safety in a world |
| Tx:29.68 | he has not heard it since before all time began. Forgiveness, once | complete, brings timelessness so close the song of Heaven can be |
| Tx:30.40 | To seek a special person or a thing to add to you to make yourself | complete can only mean that you believe some form is missing. And by |
| Tx:30.41 | to ask for. Nor could it be possible it be denied. Your will to be | complete is but God's Will, and this is given you by being His. God |
| Tx:30.41 | Creation gives no separate person and no separate thing the power to | complete the Son of God. What idol can be called upon to give the Son |
| Tx:30.47 | you remains exactly as it always was. Surrounded by a stillness so | complete no sound of battle comes remotely near, it rests in |
| Tx:30.70 | no foundation. It is here escape from fear begins and will be made | complete. Here is the real world given in exchange for dreams of |
| Tx:31.41 | In unity with Him do they abide, and in their Oneness both are kept | complete. |
| Tx:31.97 | remains to hide the face of Christ from anyone. Thy Will is done, | complete and perfectly, and all creation recognizes You and knows You |

| W1:75.7 | it shown to you. While you wait, repeat several times slowly and in | complete patience: |
| W1:94.1 | Today we continue with the one idea which brings | complete salvation; the one statement which makes all forms of |
| W1:95.17 | You are One Self, | complete and healed and whole, with power to lift the veil of |
| W1:98.6 | time for peace of mind and certainty of purpose with the promise of | complete success. And since time has no meaning, you are being asked |
| W1:100.2 | is as essential to His plan as to your happiness. Your joy must be | complete to let His plan be understood by those to whom He sends you. |
| W1:105.5 | to timelessness, and love unto itself. It adds to all that is | complete already, not in simple terms of adding more, for that |
| W1:105.6 | Today accept God's peace and joy as yours. Let Him | complete Himself as He defines completion. You will understand that |
| W1:105.6 | defines completion. You will understand that what completes Him must | complete His Son as well. He cannot give through loss. No more can |
| W1:108.4 | it is understood that both occur together, that the thought remain | complete. And in this understanding is the base on which all |
| W1:109.11 | We rest together here, for thus our rest is made | complete, and what we give today we have received already. Time is |
| W1:110.2 | death do not exist. Today's idea is therefore all you need to let | complete correction heal your mind and give you perfect vision which |
| W1:126.1 | about. If you believed this statement, there would be no problem in | complete forgiveness, certainty of goal, and sure direction. You |

| W1:152.1 | wish, and nothing is omitted that you choose. Here is your world, | complete in all details. Here is its whole reality for you. And it is |
| W1:160.10 | Not one He fails to give you to remember that your home may be | complete and perfect as it was established. He has not forgotten you. |
| W1:161.1 | where fear and anger had prevailed before. Here is Atonement made | complete, the world passed safely by, and Heaven now restored. Here |
| W1:161.2 | Complete abstraction is the natural condition of the mind. But part | |
| W1:162.4 | Love to be distributed to all the world, increased in giving, kept | complete because its sharing is unlimited. And thus you learn to |
| W1:162.5 | to all as remedy for grief and misery, all sense of loss, and for | complete escape from sin and guilt? |
| W1:164.9 | His promise fail? Can you withhold so little when His Hand holds out | complete salvation to His Son? |
| W1:169.7 | means. All learning was already in His Mind, accomplished and | complete. He recognized all that time holds and gave it to all minds |
| W1:170.14 | we have received it now. And we give thanks for them who render us | complete. In them we see Your glory, and in them we find our peace. |
| W1:R5.12 | your name. Your glory undefiled forever. And your wholeness now | complete, as God established it. You are His Son, completing His |
| W1:186.13 | He knows no sorrow. He would make a restitution, though He is | complete; a gift to you, although He knows that you have everything |
| W1:192.1 | It is your Father's holy will that you | complete Himself and that your Self shall be His sacred Son, forever |
| W1:192.2 | Creation merely waits for your return to be acknowledged, not to be | complete. |
| W1:192.5 | as what it is—a simple teaching aid to be laid by when learning is | complete, but hardly changing him who learns at all. The mind without |
| W1:195.6 | would reduce our wholeness nor impair or change our function to | complete the One Who is Himself completion. We give thanks for every |
| W1:195.8 | other things still locked away as sins. When your forgiveness is | complete, you will have total gratitude, for you will see that |
| W1:197.9 | it. Be you free of all ingratitude to anyone who makes your Self | complete. And from this Self is no one left outside. Give thanks for |
| W2:I.10 | God's plan will end, as we received the way it started. Now it is | complete. This year has brought us to eternity. |

| W2:WIS.3 | And God Himself has lost the Son He loves, with but corruption to | complete Himself, His Will forever overcome by death, love slain by |

| W2:291.2 | Son along the quiet path that ends in You. Let my forgiveness be | complete, and let the memory of You return to me. |
| W2:WILJ.3 | they ever seemed to have. To fear God's saving grace is but to fear | complete release from suffering, return to peace, security and |
| W2:WICR.3 | truth. Creation is the holy Son of God, for in creation is His Will | complete in every aspect, making every part container of the whole. |
| W2:337.1 | safety, everlasting love, freedom forever from all thought of loss, | complete deliverance from suffering. And only happiness can be my |
| W2:341.1 | bestowed upon us, living one with You in brotherhood and Fatherhood | complete, in sinlessness so perfect that the Lord of Sinlessness |
| W2:343.1 | created, I remain. Your Son can make no sacrifice, for he must be | complete, having the function of completing You. I am complete |
| W2:343.1 | for he must be complete, having the function of completing You. I am | complete because I am Your Son. I cannot lose, for I can only give. |
| W2:WAI.1 | I am God's Son, | complete and healed and whole, shining in the reflection of His Love. |

| M:14.4 | The world will end when its thought system has been | completely reversed. Until then, bits and pieces of its thinking will |
| M:16.4 | easily give God only an instant, and in that instant join with Him | completely. Perhaps the one generalization that can be made is this— |
| M:18.2 | gladly be returned to Him. And now is guilt forgiven, overlooked | completely in His sight and in God's Word. |

| Tx:16.77 | gifts have no reality apart from your receiving them. Your receiving | completes His giving. You will receive because it is His Will to |

| W1:100.1 | Just as God's Son | completes his Father, so your part in it completes your Father's |
| W1:100.1 | Just as God's Son completes his Father, so your part in it | completes your Father's plan. Salvation must reverse the mad belief |
| W1:105.6 | Himself as He defines completion. You will understand that what | completes Him must complete His Son as well. He cannot give through |
| W1:160.4 | Son? Is fear His own, created in His likeness? Is it fear that love | completes and is completed by? There is no home can shelter love and |

| Tx:21.68 | he offers you reminds you of the thanks your Father gives you for | completing Him. And here alone does reason tell you that you can |
| W1:R5.12 | your wholeness now complete, as God established it. You are His Son, | completing His extension in your own. We practice but an ancient |

| Tx:1.68 | Miracles are affirmations of Sonship, which is a state of | completion and abundance. Whatever is true and real is eternal and |

| Tx:15.78 | forgiveness here, for there is no desire to exclude anyone from your | completion in sudden recognition of the value of his part in it. In |
| Tx:15.78 | all are invited and made welcome. And you understand that your | completion is God's, Whose only need is to have you be complete. For |
| Tx:15.78 | is God's, Whose only need is to have you be complete. For your | completion makes you His in your awareness. And here it is that you |

| Tx:16.37 | and welcome them. For it is they you seek. You seek but for your own | completion, and it is they who render you complete. The special love |
| Tx:16.38 | Across the bridge is your | completion, for you will be wholly in God, willing for nothing |
| Tx:16.38 | special but only to be wholly like unto Him, completing Him by your | completion. Fear not to cross to the abode of peace and perfect |

| Tx:16.39 | with God beside you and will lead you straight to Him, where your | completion rests wholly compatible with His. Every illusion which you |
| Tx:16.39 | your mind by judging it to be attainable removes your own sense of | completion and thus denies the wholeness of your Father. Every |
| Tx:16.40 | you stay. Hear not the call of hate, and see no fantasies[, for your | completion lies in truth and nowhere else]. See in the call of hate |
| Tx:16.40 | ceaselessly from you to your Creator. Would He not answer you whose | completion is His? He loves you wholly without illusion, as you must |
| Tx:16.40 | be whole. And God has never forgotten what makes Him whole. In your | completion lies the memory of His wholeness and His gratitude to you |
| Tx:16.40 | lies the memory of His wholeness and His gratitude to you for His | completion. In His link with you lie both His inability to forget and |
| Tx:16.41 | together we go straight to God in joyous answer to His call for His | completion. |
| Tx:16.42 | If special relationships of any kind would hinder God's | completion, can they have value to you? What would interfere with God |
| Tx:16.42 | God must interfere with you. Only in time does interference in God's | completion seem to be possible. The bridge that He would carry you |
| Tx:16.47 | To everyone Heaven is | completion. There can be no disagreement on this, because both the |
| Tx:16.47 | accept it. They are, however, in complete disagreement on what | completion is and how it is accomplished. The Holy Spirit knows that |
| Tx:16.47 | completion is and how it is accomplished. The Holy Spirit knows that | completion lies first in union and then in the extension of union. To |
| Tx:16.47 | lies first in union and then in the extension of union. To the ego, | completion lies in triumph and in the extension of the “victory” even |
| Tx:16.53 | it is never completed nor ever will be completed. For the ritual of | completion cannot complete, and life arises not from death, nor |
| Tx:16.55 | to obscure their tininess and His greatness. In the name of your | completion, you do not want this. For every idol which you raise to |
| Tx:19.49 | there it sees itself, with which it would unite in holy union and | completion. As love must look past fear, so must fear see love not. |
| Tx:19.58 | pain to fill your meager store and make your lives complete. This is | completion, as the ego sees it. For guilt creeps in where happiness |
| Tx:19.58 | been removed and substitutes for it. Communion is another kind of | completion which goes beyond guilt because it goes beyond the body. |
| Tx:20.33 | without you? Except you be there, he is not complete. And it is his | completion that he remembers there. |
| Tx:22.3 | premise. Each one has looked within and seen no lack. Accepting his | completion, he would extend it by joining with another, whole as |
| Tx:24.45 | but recognized that you were not complete. And so He sought for your | completion in each living thing that He beholds and loves. And seeks |
| Tx:24.47 | Lord of Heaven has Himself come down to you to offer you your own | completion. What is His is yours because in your completion is His |
| Tx:24.47 | offer you your own completion. What is His is yours because in your | completion is His Own. He Who willed not to be without His Son could |
| Tx:25.22 | together as you join in will that you be made complete by offering | completion to your brother. See not in him the sinfulness he sees, |
| Tx:29.19 | sum of everything, then what is not in Him does not exist, and His | completion is its nothingness. Your savior is not dead, nor does he |
| Tx:29.33 | you might be whole, for only the complete can be a part of God's | completion, Which created you. |
| Tx:29.34 | And being empty, they received instead a brother's hand in which | completion lay. |
| Tx:29.48 | to worship idols in the hope of peace. God dwells within, and your | completion lies in Him. No idol takes His place. Look not to idols. |
| Tx:30.40 | Behind the search for every idol lies the yearning for | completion. Wholeness has no form because it is unlimited. To seek a |
| Tx:30.40 | believe some form is missing. And by finding this, you will achieve | completion in a form you like. This is the purpose of an idol—that |
| Tx:30.42 | Completion is the function of God's Son. He has no need to seek for | |
| W1:105.6 | God's peace and joy as yours. Let Him complete Himself as He defines | completion. You will understand that what completes Him must complete |
| W1:R4.9 | of Hosts be yours, as He Himself has willed it be. And as His own | completion joins with Him, so will He join with you who are complete |
| W1:155.10 | you as well, with nothing left to keep the truth apart from God's | completion, holy as Himself. Step back in faith, and let truth lead |
| W1:162.2 | by which the Son became His Father's happiness, His Love, and His | completion. Here creation is proclaimed and honored as it is. There |
| W1:195.6 | nor impair or change our function to complete the One Who is Himself | completion. We give thanks for every living thing, for otherwise we |
| W1:195.10 | God gives thanks to you, His Son, for being what you are—His own | completion and the source of love, along with Him. Your gratitude to |
| W2:FL.4 | function to remember Him on earth, as it is given us to be His own | completion in reality. So let us not forget our goal is shared. For |

| Tx:16.49 | Most curious of all is the | concept of the self which the ego fosters in the special |

| Tx:25.10 | were discrete, for while you think that part of you is separate, the | concept of a oneness joined as one is meaningless. It is apparent |
| Tx:27.29 | To weaken is to limit and impose an opposite that contradicts the | concept which it attacks. And by this does it join to the idea a |
| Tx:27.29 | it is not and make it unintelligible. Who can understand a double | concept, such as “weakened-power” or as “hateful-love?” |
| Tx:31.43 | The learning of the world is built upon a | concept of the self adjusted to the world's reality. It fits it well. |
| Tx:31.43 | walks at home, where what it sees is one with it. The building of a | concept of the self is what the learning of the world is for. This is |
| Tx:31.44 | A | concept of the self is made by you. It bears no likeness to yourself |
| Tx:31.44 | an idol, made to take the place of your reality as Son of God. The | concept of the self the world would teach is not the thing that it |
| Tx:31.46 | The face of innocence the | concept of the self so proudly wears can tolerate attack in |
| Tx:31.47 | Beneath the face of innocence there is a lesson that the | concept of the self was made to teach. It is a lesson in a terrible |
| Tx:31.49 | hot with hatred and distortions born of fear. What is a | concept but a thought to which its maker gives a meaning of his own? |
| Tx:31.50 | A | concept of the self is meaningless, for no one here can see what it |
| Tx:31.50 | directs begun and ended with the single aim of teaching you this | concept of yourself, that you will choose to follow this world's laws |
| Tx:31.50 | yourself. Now must the Holy Spirit find a way to help you see this | concept of the self must be undone if any peace of mind is to be |
| Tx:31.53 | Perhaps the reason why this | concept must be kept in darkness is that in the light the one who |
| Tx:31.53 | to the world you know if all its underpinnings were removed? Your | concept of the world depends upon this concept of the self. And both |
| Tx:31.53 | were removed? Your concept of the world depends upon this | concept of the self. And both would go if either one were ever raised |
| Tx:31.54 | be the thing you chose to have your brother be. This shifts the | concept of the self from what is wholly passive and at least makes |
| Tx:31.56 | The | concept of the self has always been the great preoccupation of the |
| Tx:31.56 | it feels about how it was made and what it is. And vaguely does the | concept of the self appear to answer what it does not know. |
| Tx:31.57 | Seek not your Self in symbols. There can be no | concept that can stand for what you are. What matters it which |
| Tx:31.57 | be no concept that can stand for what you are. What matters it which | concept you accept while you perceive a self which interacts with |
| Tx:31.57 | a self which interacts with evil and reacts to wicked things? Your | concept of yourself will still remain quite meaningless. And you will |

| Tx:31.66 | before will change the world for eyes that learn to see, because the | concept of the self has changed. Are you invulnerable? Then the world |
| Tx:31.68 | guilty “bad;” the “good” are innocent. And no one here but holds a | concept of himself in which he counts the “good” to pardon him the |
| Tx:31.68 | “good” in anyone, believing that the “bad” must lurk behind. This | concept emphasizes treachery, and trust becomes impossible. Nor could |
| Tx:31.69 | in fearful form, with content still concealed, to shake your sorry | concept of yourself and blacken it with still another “crime.” You |
| Tx:31.69 | dawn upon your sight as wholly worthy of forgiveness, then your | concept of yourself is wholly changed. Your “evil” thoughts have been |
| Tx:31.70 | than just a shadow circling round the good. And this will be your | concept of yourself, when you have reached the world beyond the sight |
| Tx:31.71 | The contrast is far greater than you think, for you will love this | concept of yourself because it was not made for you alone. Born as a |
| Tx:31.72 | Have faith in him who walks with you, so that your fearful | concept of yourself may change. And look upon the good in him that |
| Tx:31.72 | occur. No more than this is asked. On its behalf, remember what the | concept of yourself which now you hold has brought you in its wake, |
| Tx:31.72 | one whose need for it is just the same as yours. And let the cruel | concept of yourself be changed to one which brings the peace of God. |
| Tx:31.73 | The | concept of yourself which now you hold would guarantee your function |
| Tx:31.74 | The | concept of the self stands like a shield, a silent barricade before |
| Tx:31.75 | upon himself and sees the mirror of himself in him. Thus is the | concept of himself laid by, for nothing stands between his sight and |
| Tx:31.77 | the not yet born. For God has given you His Son to save from every | concept that he ever held. |
| Tx:31.78 | all he looks upon and sees his own salvation everywhere. He holds no | concept of himself between his calm and open eyes and what he sees. |
| Tx:31.79 | a wish to be a self which you are not. And from that wish, a | concept rises, teaching that you are the thing you wish to be. It |

| W1:72.8 | to glorify and exalt it. But while it stands at the center of your | concept of yourself, you are attacking God's plan for salvation and |
| W1:75.7 | a completely open mind, washed of all past ideas and clean of every | concept you have made. You have forgiven the world today. You can |

| W1:135.7 | Is not this picture fearful? Can you be at peace with such a | concept of your home? Yet what endowed the body with the right to |
| M:2.2 | teaching-learning plan of salvation, it is necessary to grasp the | concept of time which the course sets forth. Atonement corrects |
| M:3.3 | to understand that levels of teaching the universal course is a | concept as meaningless in reality as is time. The illusion of one |

| Tx:31.58 | You will make many | concepts of the self as learning goes along. Each one will show the |

| Tx:14.14 | Crucifixion is always the ego's aim. It sees as guilty, and by its | condemnation, it would kill. The Holy Spirit sees only guiltlessness, |

| Tx:20.50 | be the seat of love. It is the home of the idolater and of love's | condemnation. For here is love made fearful and hope abandoned. Even |

| Tx:22.61 | unless his Father is? You do not see that every sin and every | condemnation which you perceive and justify is an attack upon your |
| Tx:23.35 | not mean death? Can an attack in any form be love? What form of | condemnation is a blessing? Who makes his savior powerless and finds |
| Tx:24.41 | of peace and the escape from pain—in which you suffer not your | condemnation. In dreams, effect and cause are interchanged, for here |

| Tx:24.57 | He who condemned himself, and you as well, is given you to save from | condemnation along with you. And both shall see God's glory in His |
| Tx:24.65 | death. And if you see this purpose in your brother's, such is your | condemnation of your own. Weave, rather then, a frame of holiness |
| Tx:25.31 | Is this a sin or a mistake, forgivable or not? Does he need help or | condemnation? Is it your purpose that he be saved or damned? |
| Tx:27.15 | lies the proof that he has truly pardoned and retains no trace of | condemnation that he still would hold against himself or any living |

| Tx:27.67 | The part you play in salvaging the world from | condemnation is your own escape. Forget not that the witness to the |
| W1:46.1 | does not forgive because He has never condemned. And there must be | condemnation before forgiveness is necessary. Forgiveness is the |

| W1:46.1 | God does not forgive because He has never | condemned. And there must be condemnation before forgiveness is |
| W1:60.2 | Love in which I forgive. God does not forgive, because He has never | condemned. The blameless cannot blame, and those who have accepted |

| Tx:7.68 | without meaning. Yet because God's Will is unchangeable, no real | conflict of will is possible. This is the Holy Spirit's perfectly |

| Tx:7.84 | up. Therefore, the ego tries to persuade you that it can free you of | conflict, lest you give the ego up and free yourself. The ego, using |
| Tx:7.84 | of the mind only to defeat the mind's real purpose. It projects | conflict from your mind to other minds in an attempt to persuade you |
| Tx:7.85 | Strictly speaking, | conflict cannot be projected, precisely because it cannot be fully |
| Tx:7.101 | will be gaining everything. If you believed this, there would be no | conflict. |
| Tx:8.1 | peace must be learned. This is only because those who are in | conflict are not peaceful, and peace is the condition of knowledge, |
| Tx:9.59 | is beyond you. Time and eternity are both in your mind and will | conflict until you perceive time solely as a means to regain |
| Tx:10.2 | would you say to someone who really believed this question involves | conflict? If you made the ego, how can the ego have made you? The |
| Tx:10.2 | made you? The authority problem remains the only source of perceived | conflict, because the ego was made out of the wish of God's Son to |
| Tx:10.13 | In this interpretation, it is possible for God's Will and yours to | conflict. God then may seem to demand of you what you do not want to |
| Tx:10.23 | His peace surrounds you silently. God is very quiet, for there is no | conflict in Him. Conflict is the root of all evil, for being blind, |
| Tx:10.23 | you silently. God is very quiet, for there is no conflict in Him. | Conflict is the root of all evil, for being blind, it does not see |
| Tx:10.44 | because the extension of His Will cannot be unlike itself. The real | conflict you experience, then, is between the ego's idle wishes and |
| Tx:10.44 | idle wishes and the Will of God, which you share. Can this be a real | conflict? |
| Tx:10.45 | itself. But do not be deceived by its interpretation of your | conflict. |
| Tx:11.7 | There is but one response to reality, for reality evokes no | conflict at all. There is but one Teacher of reality, Who understands |
| Tx:11.30 | mind. His insane thoughts, too, must be in his mind, but an internal | conflict of this magnitude he cannot tolerate. A split mind is |
| Tx:13.35 | and harsh intrusion of guilt on peace. Yet no one sees himself in | conflict and ravaged by a cruel war unless he believes that both |
| Tx:13.65 | and only in your guiltlessness can you be happy. There is no | conflict here. To wish for guilt in any way, in any form, will lose |
| Tx:14.10 | There is no unity of learning goals apart from this. There is no | conflict in this curriculum, which has one aim however it is taught. |
| Tx:14.21 | its interpreter is not its maker. You who made it are but expressing | conflict, from which the Holy Spirit would release you. Leave what |
| Tx:14.48 | lack of competition among your thoughts, which, even though they may | conflict, can occur to you together and in great numbers. You are so |
| Tx:15.55 | have no need except to extend it. In the holy instant, there is no | conflict of needs, for there is only one. For the holy instant |
| Tx:15.56 | all relationships are seen as total commitments, yet they do not | conflict with one another in any way. Perfect faith in each one for |
| Tx:15.60 | Herein lies peace, for here there is no | conflict. In the world of scarcity, love has no meaning, and peace is |
| Tx:15.104 | within himself in peace? And who can try to resolve the perceived | conflict of Heaven and hell in him by casting Heaven out and giving |
| Tx:16.7 | other. Foolish requests are foolish for the simple reason that they | conflict because they contain an element of specialness. Only the |
| Tx:16.24 | Illusions are but beliefs in what is not there. And the seeming | conflict between truth and illusion can only be resolved by |
| Tx:16.26 | You are not two selves in | conflict. What is beyond God? If you who hold Him and whom He holds |
| Tx:16.31 | The symbols of hate against the symbols of love play out a | conflict which does not exist. For symbols stand for something else, |
| Tx:16.34 | which remains possible is which illusion you prefer. There is no | conflict in the choice between truth and illusion. Seen in these |
| Tx:16.34 | truth and illusion. Seen in these terms, no one would hesitate. But | conflict enters the instant the choice seems to be one between |
| Tx:17.20 | transformed past is made like the present. No longer does the past | conflict with now. This continuity extends the present by increasing |
| Tx:17.35 | the picture. What you value is the frame, for there you see no | conflict. Yet the frame is only the wrapping for the gift of |
| Tx:17.35 | see no conflict. Yet the frame is only the wrapping for the gift of | conflict. The frame is not the gift. Be not deceived by the most |
| Tx:17.46 | of its inappropriateness for meeting its new purpose. The | conflict between the goal and the structure of the relationship is so |
| Tx:17.46 | this happy solution is seen and accepted as the only way out of the | conflict, the relationship seems to be severely strained. |
| Tx:17.62 | from the viewpoint of the ego, for the ego believes in “solving” | conflict through fragmentation and does not perceive the situation as |
| Tx:17.65 | are perceived, it is because the thoughts are judged to be in | conflict. But if the goal is truth, this is impossible. Some idea of |
| Tx:19.46 | to get rid of Him Who you invited in and push Him out must produce | conflict. As you look upon the world, this little wish, uprooted and |
| Tx:19.84 | that speaks for God. Yet the retreat to death is not the end of | conflict. Only God's Answer is its end. The obstacle of your seeming |
| Tx:22.45 | only weakness interferes? You are the strong ones in this seeming | conflict. And you need no defense. Everything that needs defense you |
| Tx:23.7 | memory of God comes to the quiet mind. It cannot come where there is | conflict, for a mind at war against itself remembers not eternal |
| Tx:23.7 | not love. War is impossible unless belief in victory is cherished. | Conflict within you must imply that you believe the ego has the power |
| Tx:23.10 | the giver of your peace. Your “enemy” was God Himself, to Whom all | conflict, triumph, and attack of any kind are all unknown. He loves |
| Tx:23.12 | other in the belief the one which conquers will be true. There is no | conflict between them and the truth. Nor are they different from each |
| Tx:23.13 | will remember what you know when you have learned you cannot be in | conflict. One illusion about yourself can battle with another, yet |
| Tx:23.13 | and there is no victory. And truth stands radiant, apart from | conflict, untouched and quiet in the peace of God. |
| Tx:23.14 | Conflict must be between two forces. It cannot exist between one | |
| Tx:23.14 | of you. And by attacking it, you make two illusions of yourself in | conflict with each other. And this occurs whenever you look on |
| Tx:23.14 | you look on anything that God created with anything but love. | Conflict is fearful, for it is the birth of fear. Yet what is born of |
| Tx:23.15 | See how the | conflict of illusions disappears when it is brought to truth! For it |
| Tx:23.15 | the illusion that was less real, made an illusion by defeat. Thus, | conflict is the choice between illusions, one to be crowned as real, |
| Tx:23.17 | of sin. And nothing is remembered except illusions. Illusions can | conflict because their forms are different. And they do battle only |
| Tx:23.18 | Peace is the state where love abides and seeks to share itself. | Conflict and peace are opposites. Where one abides the other cannot |
| Tx:23.23 | of opposition, just as the separate aspects of the Son meet only to | conflict but not to join. One becomes weak, the other strong by his |
| Tx:23.25 | seems to be at war with Him and justified in its attack. And now is | conflict made inevitable and beyond the help of God. And now |
| Tx:23.37 | what is not in Heaven is not anywhere. Outside of Heaven, only the | conflict of illusions stands; senseless, impossible, and beyond all |
| Tx:23.38 | The laws of chaos govern all illusions. Their forms | conflict, making it seem quite possible to value some above the |
| Tx:23.46 | Mistake not truce for peace, nor compromise for the escape from | conflict. To be released from conflict means that it is over. The |
| Tx:23.46 | nor compromise for the escape from conflict. To be released from | conflict means that it is over. The door is open; you have left the |
| Tx:23.46 | safety? Can guilt be absent from a battlefield? [Do not remain in | conflict, for there is no war without attack.] |
| Tx:23.47 | wholly true. No difference enters, and what is all the same cannot | conflict. You are not asked to fight against your wish to murder. But |
| Tx:23.55 | apparent from the quiet sphere above the battleground. What can | conflict with everything? And what is there that offers less, yet |
| Tx:24.4 | belief is a decision to war in secret, where the results of | conflict are kept unknown and never brought to reason to be |
| Tx:24.24 | all intrusions of sanity upon illusions, safe from God, and safe for | conflict everlasting. Here are the gates of hell you closed upon |
| Tx:24.48 | There must be doubt before there can be | conflict. And every doubt must be about yourself. Christ has no |
| Tx:24.49 | on it in gentleness and blessing so complete that not one trace of | conflict still remains to haunt you in the darkness of the night. He |
| Tx:24.61 | and there is no alternative for Him to see. Out of His lack of | conflict comes your peace. And from His purpose comes the means for |
| Tx:26.18 | could there be complexity in Him? What is there to decide? For it is | conflict that makes choice [complex]. The truth is simple—it is |
| Tx:26.24 | is the choice between two things so clearly unalike.] There is no | conflict here. No sacrifice is possible in the relinquishment of an |
| Tx:26.32 | God gave His Teacher to replace the one you made, not to | conflict with it. And what He would replace has been replaced. Time |
| Tx:27.36 | are all things answered and is every problem quietly resolved. In | conflict there can be no answer and no resolution, for its purpose is |
| Tx:27.36 | possible and to ensure no answer will be plain. A problem set in | conflict has no answer, for it is seen in different ways. And what |
| Tx:27.36 | from one point of view is not an answer in another light. You are in | conflict. Thus it must be clear you cannot answer anything at all, |
| Tx:27.36 | Thus it must be clear you cannot answer anything at all, for | conflict has no limited effects. Yet if God gave an answer, there |
| Tx:27.41 | but merely asks what the response should be. But no one in a | conflict state is free to ask this question, for he does not want an |
| Tx:27.41 | ask this question, for he does not want an honest answer where the | conflict ends. Only within the holy instant can an honest question |
| Tx:27.45 | The fearful are not healed and cannot heal. This does not mean the | conflict must be gone forever from your mind. For if it were, there'd |
| Tx:27.46 | into this world as witness to a state of mind which has transcended | conflict and has reached to peace. It carries comfort from the place |
| Tx:30.24 | readiness for asking brought to your awareness, for you cannot be in | conflict when you ask for what you want and see that it is this for |
| Tx:31.33 | with you, but you can choose which road will lead you out of | conflict and away from difficulties which concern you not. Yet they |
| W1:24.4 | outcome and also that these goals are on different levels and often | conflict. |
| W1:71.7 | Only God's plan for salvation will work. There can be no real | conflict about this, because there is no possible alternative to |
| W1:71.8 | And let us rejoice that there is an answer to what seems to be a | conflict with no resolution possible. All things are possible to God. |
| W1:74.1 | this, you have recognized that your will is His. The belief that | conflict is possible has gone. Peace has replaced the strange idea |
| W1:74.2 | true. Therefore it cannot give rise to illusions. Without illusions, | conflict is impossible. Let us try to recognize this today and |
| W1:74.4 | There is no will but God's. I cannot be in | conflict. |
| W1:74.7 | During this introductory phase, be sure to deal quickly with any | conflict thoughts that may cross your mind. Tell yourself immediately: |
| W1:74.8 | There is no will but God's. These | conflict thoughts are meaningless. |
| W1:74.9 | If there is one | conflict area which seems particularly difficult to resolve, single |
| W1:80.1 | One problem—one solution. Salvation is accomplished. Freedom from | conflict has been given you. Accept that fact, and you are ready to |
| W1:80.5 | that your problems have been solved. Recognize that you are out of | conflict, free, and at peace. Above all, remember that you have one |
| W1:83.2 | but the one God gave me. This recognition releases me from all | conflict because it means I cannot have conflicting goals. With one |
| W1:96.1 | of being split into opposites induces feelings of acute and constant | conflict and leads to frantic attempts to reconcile the contradictory |
| W1:96.3 | cannot be resolved within the framework they are set. Two selves in | conflict could not be resolved, and good and evil have no meeting |
| W1:97.1 | truth today as often as you can, for it will bring your mind from | conflict to the quiet fields of peace. No chill of fear can enter, |
| W1:99.1 | of the impossible which has occurred, resulting in a state of | conflict now between what is and what could never be. |
| W1:131.9 | God does not suffer | conflict. Nor is His creation split in two. How could it be His Son |
| W1:138.7 | die. And thus salvation must be seen as death, for life is seen as | conflict. To resolve the conflict is to end your life as well. |
| W1:138.7 | must be seen as death, for life is seen as conflict. To resolve the | conflict is to end your life as well. |

| W2:WS.1 | that it has separate thoughts and will replace these thoughts of | conflict with the thought of peace. |
| W2:286.1 | I do anything. In You is every choice already made. In You has every | conflict been resolved. In You is everything I hope to find already |
| W2:307.1 | can give, I must accept Your will for me and enter into peace where | conflict is impossible. Your Son is one with You in being and in |
| W2:307.2 | And with this prayer, we enter silently into a state where | conflict cannot come because we join our holy will with God's in |
| W2:318.1 | reconciled all parts of Heaven's plan to save the world. What could | conflict when all the parts have but one purpose and one aim? How |
| W2:331.1 | except the will of Love. Fear is a dream and has no will that can | conflict with Yours. Conflict is sleep, and peace awakening. Death is |
| W2:331.1 | Love. Fear is a dream and has no will that can conflict with Yours. | Conflict is sleep, and peace awakening. Death is illusion; life, |
| W2:331.1 | Eternal Truth. There is no opposition to Your Will. There is no | conflict, for my will is Yours. |
| W2:333.1 | Conflict must be resolved. It cannot be evaded, set aside, denied, | |
| W2:333.2 | Father, forgiveness is the light You chose to shine away all | conflict and all doubt and light the way for our return to You. No |

| M:4.11 | with themselves. Therefore it is impossible for them to be in | conflict with anyone or anything. |
| M:4.12 | that makes for war. No one at one with himself can even conceive of | conflict. Conflict is the inevitable result of self-deception, and |
| M:4.12 | for war. No one at one with himself can even conceive of conflict. | Conflict is the inevitable result of self-deception, and |
| M:7.6 | him as part of the self and thus represents a confusion in identity. | Conflict about what you are has entered your mind, and you have |
| M:8.1 | upsets the mental balance. What the body's eyes behold is only | conflict. Look not to them for peace and understanding. |
| M:19.2 | justice includes nothing that opposes truth. There is no inherent | conflict between justice and truth; one is but the first small step |
| M:20.3 | apparent. Yet when peace is found, the war is meaningless. And it is | conflict now that is perceived as non-existent and unreal. |
| M:20.4 | again as your defense. Stop for a moment now and think of this: is | conflict what you want, or is God's peace the better choice? Which |

| Tx:11.49 | using the aim of teaching to defeat itself, what can you expect but | confusion? The curriculum does not make sense. |
| Tx:15.96 | that salvation apart from sacrifice means nothing to you. Your | confusion of sacrifice and love is so profound that you cannot |
| Tx:16.48 | either one as it is. The special relationship is the triumph of this | confusion. It is a kind of union from which union is excluded, and |
| Tx:16.58 | when it is perceived as only what it is. For only fantasies made | confusion in choosing possible, and they are totally unreal. This |

| Tx:25.71 | of this is true? Could He, in justice and in love believe in your | confusion you have much to give? You are not asked to trust Him far. |
| Tx:26.85 | anger now is just. And thus you see what is the same as different. | Confusion is not limited. If it occurs at all, it will be total. And |
| Tx:26.85 | will block knowledge. It is not a question of the size of the | confusion or how much it interferes. Its simple presence shuts the |

| Tx:30.84 | And this is all the meaning that they have. Can this be meaning? Can | confusion be what meaning means? Perception cannot be in constant |
| Tx:31.25 | alone, and so you cannot see which way you go. And thus there is | confusion and a sense of endless doubting as you stagger back and |
| Tx:31.41 | All roads that lead away from what you are will lead you to | confusion and despair. Yet has He never left His Thoughts to die, |

| Tx:4.94 | It should be clear by now that, while the | content of any particular ego-illusion does not matter, it is usually |
| Tx:4.101 | others. This cannot be done with the actual revelation because its | content cannot be expressed, and it is intensely personal to the mind |
| Tx:4.106 | to say or what to do because He Who sent me will direct me. I am | content to be wherever He wishes, knowing He goes there with me. I |
| Tx:5.56 | do not occupy space at all. However, human ideas can conflict in | content, because they occur at different levels and include opposite |
| Tx:7.10 | of the mind in this world as well as in the Kingdom. However, the | content is different in this world, because the thoughts it governs |

| Tx:15.22 | made out of littleness in the strange belief that littleness can | content you. When you strive for anything in this world with the |
| Tx:15.23 | accept it gladly, that there is no form of littleness that can ever | content you. You are free to try as many as you wish, but all you |
| Tx:15.23 | all you will be doing is to delay your homecoming. For you will be | content only in magnitude, which is your home. |
| Tx:15.24 | the value that you put upon yourself. Believe the little can | content you, and by limiting yourself, you will not be satisfied. For |
| Tx:15.26 | and you deny yourself His power. God is not willing that His Son be | content with less than everything. For He is not content without His |

| Tx:15.26 | For He is not content without His Son, and His Son cannot be | content with less than his Father has given him. We asked you once |
| Tx:15.28 | for God through Him. For littleness and the belief that you can be | content with littleness are the decisions you have made about |
| Tx:15.28 | can be blown up by them into a sense of magnitude that can | content them. Neither give littleness, nor accept it. All honor is |

| Tx:15.32 | His Will is constant and at peace forever with Itself. You will be | content with nothing but His Will. Accept no less, remembering that |
| Tx:15.36 | you have made for your salvation in exchange for God's. His will | content you, and there is nothing else that can bring you peace. For |

| Tx:18.19 | and your waking dreams have different forms, and that is all. Their | content is the same. They are your protest against reality and your |
| Tx:18.34 | Humility will never ask that you remain | content with littleness. But it does require that you be not content |
| Tx:18.34 | remain content with littleness. But it does require that you be not | content with less than greatness, which comes not of you. Your |
| Tx:18.77 | love is the glorious whole, which offers all its happiness and deep | content to every part. The little aspect which you think you set |
| Tx:21.82 | In | content, all the questions are the same. For each one asks if you are |
| Tx:23.34 | could compel belief but for the emphasis on form and disregard of | content. No one who thinks that one of them is true sees what it |
| Tx:23.36 | them. For how else could you perceive the form they take with | content such as this? Can any form of this be tenable? Yet you |
| Tx:23.36 | Yet you believe them for the form they take and do not recognize the | content. It never changes. Can you paint rosy lips upon a skeleton, |
| Tx:23.36 | loveliness, pet it and pamper it, and make it live? And can you be | content with an illusion that you are living? |
| Tx:23.37 | as an eternal barrier to Heaven. Illusions are but forms. Their | content is never true. |
| Tx:24.47 | You who would be | content with specialness and seek salvation in a war with love, |
| Tx:25.6 | want to live in and the state in which you think your mind will be | content and satisfied. It chooses where you think your safety lies, |

| Tx:25.15 | Take not the form for content, for the form is but a means for | content. And the frame is but a means to hold the picture up so that |
| Tx:25.39 | him for you to see. Nor do you hear his plaintive call, unchanged in | content in whatever form the call is made, that you unite with him |
| Tx:25.56 | God is not insane appears most sensible and meaningful to you. The | content is the same. The form is suited to your special needs and to |
| Tx:26.15 | will rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the Holy Spirit be | content until it is received by everyone. For what you give to Him is |
| Tx:26.45 | friendship worthy of God's Son, nor one with which he could remain | content. Yet God has given him a better Friend in Whom all power in |
| Tx:26.61 | to other forms. And this is not release. God's Son could never be | content with less than full salvation and escape from guilt. For |
| Tx:26.74 | not its effects apparent then? Why in the future? And you seek to be | content with sighing and with “reasoning” you do not understand it |
| Tx:26.76 | Be not | content with future happiness. It has no meaning and is not your just |
| Tx:27.9 | of the grave. If this were true, there would be reason to remain | content to seek for passing joys and cherish little pleasures where |
| Tx:28.3 | Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been given Him, without the | content and the purposes for which they have been made. They are but |
| Tx:28.19 | dream and can accept another dream as well. But for this change in | content of the dream, it must be realized that it is you who dreamed |
| Tx:28.22 | The miracle establishes you dream a dream and that its | content is not true. This is a crucial step in dealing with |
| Tx:29.60 | No idol can establish you as more than God. But you will never be | content with being less. |
| Tx:29.69 | fear in any form—and you are fearful if you do not feel a deep | content, a certainty of help, a calm assurance Heaven goes with you— |
| Tx:30.38 | will is universal, being limitless. And so it has no form nor is | content for its expression in the terms of form. Idols are limits. |
| Tx:30.39 | never be your will because what shares in all creation cannot be | content with small ideas and little things. |
| Tx:30.42 | cannot be denied. Your will is granted. Not in any form that would | content you not, but in the whole completely lovely Thought God holds |
| Tx:30.65 | have you sought here that did not bring you pain? What moment of | content has not been bought at fearful price in coins of suffering? |
| Tx:31.56 | more than the escape from concepts. It does not concern itself with | content of the mind, but with the simple statement that it thinks. |
| Tx:31.69 | not see them as meaningless. And so they come in fearful form, with | content still concealed, to shake your sorry concept of yourself and |
| Tx:31.94 | God has ordained I cannot call in vain, and in His certainty I rest | content. For you will hear, and you will choose again. And in this |
| W1:64.6 | deceive you. Complexity of form does not imply complexity of | content. It is impossible that any decision on earth can have a |
| W1:64.6 | of content. It is impossible that any decision on earth can have a | content different from just this one simple choice. That is the only |
| W1:66.1 | them; they are the same. Their forms are different, but their | content is completely one. |
| W1:66.4 | to go beyond these differences in appearance, and recognize a common | content where it exists in truth. |
| W1:69.4 | Very quietly now, with your eyes closed, try to let go of all the | content which generally occupies your consciousness. Think of your |
| W1:77.3 | us in truth. Today, however, we will also make sure that we will not | content ourselves with less. |
| W1:79.5 | to be on so many levels, in such varying forms, and with such varied | content that they confront you with an impossible situation. Dismay |
| W1:133.10 | its camouflage a thin veneer which could deceive but those who are | content to be deceived. Its goals are obvious to anyone who cares to |
| W1:140.2 | that would awaken him and end the dream. What difference does the | content of a dream make in reality? One either sleeps or wakens. |
| W1:155.12 | What way could give you more than everything or offer less and still | content the holy Son of God? We walk to God. The truth that walks |
| W1:193.5 | themes apparent but not real. They are the same in fundamental | content. It is this: |
| W1:193.7 | distress does not appear to be but unforgiveness. Yet that is the | content underneath the form. It is this sameness which makes learning |
| W1:195.1 | do is see themselves as better off than others. And they try to be | content because another seems to suffer more than they. How pitiful |
| W2:I.3 | our times of rest and calm our minds at need. Yet we will not | content ourselves with simple practicing in the remaining holy |
| W2:WIW.5 | Let us not rest | content until the world has joined our changed perception. Let us not |
| W2:272.1 | to me. My home is set in Heaven by Your will and mine. Can dreams | content me? Can illusions bring me happiness? What but Your memory |
| W2:272.2 | we turn aside and ask ourselves if we, the Sons of God, could be | content with dreams when Heaven can be chosen just as easily as hell |
| W2:273.1 | day of undisturbed tranquility. If this is not yet feasible, we are | content and even more than satisfied to learn how such a day can be |
| W2:334.2 | I seek but the eternal. For Your Son can be | content with nothing less than this. What then can be his solace but |
| M:I.3 | what you think you are teaching. Yet it is impossible not to use the | content of any situation on behalf of what you really teach and |
| M:I.3 | of what you really teach and therefore learn. To this the verbal | content of your teaching is quite irrelevant. It may coincide with it |
| M:1.3 | varies greatly. So do the particular teaching aids involved. But the | content of the course never changes. Its central theme is always, |

| Tx:21.59 | you could spare him and yourself. For reason would not make way for | correction in you alone. |
| Tx:21.60 | Correction cannot be accepted or refused by you without your brother. | |

| Tx:22.8 | sin. But a mistake indeed! Let not your fear of sin protect it from | correction, for the attraction of guilt is only fear. Here is the one |
| Tx:22.30 | and reason will be unable to see your errors and make way for their | correction. For reason sees through errors, telling you what you |
| Tx:22.30 | can see the difference between sin and mistakes because it wants | correction. Therefore, it tells you what you thought was |
| Tx:22.30 | and thus it must have been an error. The ego's opposition to | correction leads to its fixed belief in sin and disregard of errors. |
| Tx:22.33 | If what the form conceals is a mistake, the form cannot prevent | correction. The body's eyes see only form. They cannot see beyond |
| Tx:22.37 | it is—a common state of mind, where both give errors gladly to | correction that both may happily be healed as one. |

| Tx:23.22 | For the destruction of the one who makes the error places him beyond | correction and beyond forgiveness. What he has done is thus |

| Tx:26.52 | Sin is not error, for it goes beyond | correction to impossibility. Yet the belief that it is real has made |
| Tx:26.71 | if you fear, there is a present cause. And it is this that needs | correction, not a future state. |
| Tx:26.72 | overlooked but which is all there is to time. The working out of all | correction takes no time at all. |

| Tx:27.22 | to accuse. Alone, you cannot see they are the same, and therefore is | correction not of you. Identity and function are the same, and by |
| Tx:27.23 | function unified which has conflicting purposes and different ends. | Correction, to a mind so split, must be a way to punish sins you |
| Tx:27.23 | different from you in that he is more guilty, thus in need of your | correction as the one more innocent than he. This splits his function |
| Tx:27.24 | because that is the function given it by you. When you perceive | correction is the same as pardon, then you also know the Holy |
| Tx:27.25 | is all of it. Your brother's sins become the central target for | correction, lest your errors and his own be seen as one. Yours are |
| Tx:27.26 | In this interpretation of | correction, your own mistakes you will not even see. The focus of |
| Tx:27.26 | of correction, your own mistakes you will not even see. The focus of | correction has been placed outside yourself on one who cannot be a |

| W1:12.1 | The importance of this idea lies in the fact that it contains a | correction for a major perceptual distortion. You think that what |
| W1:47.7 | The recognition of your own frailty is a necessary step in the | correction of your errors, but it is hardly a sufficient one in |

| W1:103.6 | Allow this one | correction to be placed within your mind each waking hour today. Then |
| W1:108.5 | will serve to unify all thought. This is the same as saying one | correction will suffice for all correction or that to forgive one |

| W1:126.13 | Then spend a quiet moment, opening your mind to His | correction and His Love. And what you hear of Him you will believe, |
| W1:131.5 | and think that it is hell he seeks. When he is wrong, he finds | correction; when he wanders off, he is led back to his appointed task. |
| W1:135.1 | to handle them as real. It adds illusions to illusions, thus making | correction doubly difficult. |
| W1:138.9 | all mistakes in judgment which the mind had made before are open to | correction as the truth dismisses them as causeless. Now are they |

| Tx:4.71 | also constantly informed that the body can not protect it. This, of | course, is not only accurate but perfectly obvious. |

| Tx:8.86 | You have surely begun to realize that this is a very practical | course which means exactly what it says. So does the Bible, if it is |

| Tx:9.29 | statement. Only the good can work. Nothing else works at all. This | course is a guide to behavior. Being a very direct and very simple |

| Tx:10.80 | You complain that this | course is not sufficiently specific for you to understand it and use |
| Tx:10.80 | and you have not done what it specifically advocates. This is not a | course in the play of ideas, but in their practical application. |
| Tx:11.50 | for the curriculum you have chosen is against love and amounts to a | course in how to attack yourself. A necessary minor, supplementing |
| Tx:12.6 | murder. You do not yet understand that all your fear of this | course stems ultimately from this interpretation, but if you will |
| Tx:12.7 | This | course has explicitly stated that its goal for you is happiness and |
| Tx:12.7 | lack faith in it. You must, then, believe that by not learning the | course, you are protecting yourself. And you do not realize that it |
| Tx:12.23 | And now the reason why you are afraid of this | course should be apparent. For this is a course on love because it is |
| Tx:12.23 | why you are afraid of this course should be apparent. For this is a | course on love because it is about you. You have been told that your |

| Tx:15.35 | This | course is not beyond immediate learning unless you prefer to believe |
| Tx:15.39 | of God depends on willingness and not on time. The reason why this | course is simple is that truth is simple. Complexity is of the ego |
| Tx:16.24 | This is a | course in how to know yourself. You have taught what you are but have |
| Tx:16.57 | all its consequences. The decision whether or not to listen to this | course and follow it is but the choice between truth and illusion. |

| Tx:19.83 | What better way to teach the first and fundamental principle in a | course on miracles than by showing you the one which seems to be the |
| Tx:20.58 | same Source as does His purpose. Being so simple and direct, this | course has nothing in it that is not consistent. The seeming |
| Tx:20.58 | And this produces great discomfort. This need not be. This | course requires almost nothing of you. It is impossible to imagine |
| Tx:21.5 | you would deny. Your question is whether the means by which this | course is learned will bring to you the joy it promises. If you |
| Tx:21.13 | We have repeated how little is asked of you to learn this | course. It is the same small willingness you need to have your whole |
| Tx:21.77 | problem. But what you want to see must be your choice. This is a | course in cause and not effect. |
| Tx:22.7 | and as not you, explains its sight to you. Your vision would, of | course, render this quite unnecessary. Yet if your eyes are closed |
| Tx:22.10 | Of all the messages you have received and failed to understand, this | course alone is open to your understanding and can be understood. |
| Tx:22.21 | This is a crucial period in this | course, for here the separation of you and the ego must be made |
| Tx:22.22 | savior or his judge, offering him sanctuary or condemnation. This | course will be believed entirely or not at all. For it is wholly true |
| Tx:22.30 | ego's whole continuance depends on its belief you cannot learn this | course. Share this belief, and reason will be unable to see your |
| Tx:23.26 | you to find escape from what it wants. That is the function of this | course, which does not value what the ego cherishes. |
| Tx:23.44 | This | course is easy just because it makes no compromise. Yet it seems |
| Tx:24.1 | Forget not that the motivation for this | course is the attainment and the keeping of the state of peace. Given |
| Tx:24.2 | To learn this | course requires willingness to question every value that you hold. |
| Tx:24.10 | you share becomes obscured from both of you. You would oppose this | course because it teaches you you are alike. You have no purpose that |
| Tx:24.69 | This | course makes no attempt to teach what cannot easily be learned. Its |
| Tx:24.71 | made for evidence beyond itself and no escape within its sight. Its | course is sure when seen through its own eyes. It grows and withers, |
| Tx:25.51 | If you could realize nothing is changeless but the Will of God, this | course would not be difficult for you. For it is this that you do not |
| Tx:25.82 | The principle that justice means no one can lose is crucial to this | course. For miracles depend on justice. Not as it is seen through |
| Tx:26.22 | they are not the same? This difference is the learning goal this | course has set. It will not go beyond this aim. Its only purpose is |
| Tx:26.30 | that miracles are all the same. Yet teaching that is what this | course is for. This is its only purpose, for only that is all there |
| Tx:26.39 | lose his way along a road long since a memory of time gone by? [This | course will teach you only what is now.] A dreadful instant in a |

| Tx:26.47 | the laws of healing must be understood before the purpose of the | course can be accomplished. Let us review the principles that we have |
| Tx:28.27 | choice instead. Beginning here, salvation will proceed to change the | course of every step in the descent to separation, until all the |
| Tx:31.39 | makes no sense and cannot be the way. To you who seem to find this | course to be too difficult to learn, let me repeat that to achieve a |
| Tx:31.39 | to be found. If this be difficult to understand, then is this | course impossible to learn. But only then. For otherwise, it is a |
| Tx:31.40 | how you would choose the better to deceive yourself again. This | course attempts to teach no more than that the power of decision |
| Tx:31.82 | it is you for whom He asks release? And what but this is what this | course would teach? And what but this is there for you to learn? |
| W1:I.1 | these exercises to train the mind to think along the lines which the | course sets forth. |
| W1:8.1 | This idea is, of | course, the reason why you see only the past. No one really sees |
| W1:14.1 | The idea for today is, of | course, the reason why a meaningless world is impossible. What God |
| W1:14.9 | The idea for today can, of | course, be applied to anything that disturbs you during the day, |
| W1:36.6 | more repetition with your eyes closed. All applications should, of | course, be made quite slowly, as effortlessly and unhurriedly as |
| W1:42.1 | why you cannot fail in your efforts to achieve the goal of the | course. You will see because it is the Will of God. It is His |
| W1:42.10 | the more often you will be reminding yourself that the goal of the | course is important to you and that you have not forgotten it. |
| W1:44.7 | this unless you choose to stop it. It is merely taking its natural | course. Try to observe your passing thoughts without involvement and |
| W1:66.8 | is that God gives you only happiness. This could be false, of | course, but in order to be false it is necessary to define God as |
| W1:71.1 | in place of the ego's is to be damned. This sounds preposterous, of | course. Yet after we have considered just what the ego's plan is, |
| W1:94.11 | release and a milestone in learning the thought system which this | course sets forth. |
| W1:95.10 | with weakness. When you fail to comply with the requirements of this | course, you have merely made a mistake. This calls for correction and |
| W1:105.3 | leaves you nothing in the ones you take. A major learning goal this | course has set is to reverse your view of giving, so you can receive. |
| W1:R3.1 | are urged to follow just as closely as you can. We understand, of | course, that it may be impossible for you to undertake what is |
| W1:126.1 | thinking of the world, is crucial to the thought reversal which this | course will bring about. If you believed this statement, there would |
| W1:127.4 | No | course whose purpose is to teach you what you really are could fail |
| W1:127.6 | part of human destiny. Today we take the largest single step this | course requests in your advance toward its established goal. If you |
| W1:132.7 | There is no world! This is the central thought the | course attempts to teach. Not everyone is ready to accept it, and |
| W1:132.8 | yet it clearly contradicts the world. And some will find it in this | course and in the exercises that we do today. |
| W1:133.2 | as valued by the world, you ask for sorrow, not for happiness. This | course does not attempt to take from you the little that you have. It |
| W1:134.1 | a view, forgiveness must be seen as mere eccentric folly, and this | course appear to rest salvation on a whim. |
| W1:135.16 | idea the past has taught enough to let the mind direct its future | course. |
| W1:138.5 | is beyond the goals we seek to teach within the framework of this | course. Ours are teaching goals to be attained through learning how |
| W1:153.6 | to recognition of the Christ in you. Perhaps you will recall the | course maintains that choice is always made between His strength and |
| W1:157.8 | it has a purpose and will serve it well. Today we will embark upon a | course you have not dreamed of. But the Holy One, the Giver of the |
| W1:165.7 | absent. Sureness must abide within you who are host to Him. This | course removes all doubts which you have interposed between Him and |
| W1:167.3 | if change occurs. Ideas leave not their source. The emphasis this | course has placed on that idea is due to its centrality in our |
| W1:169.3 | final step must go beyond all learning. Grace is not the goal this | course aspires to attain. Yet we prepare for grace in that an open |
| W1:169.10 | salvation, holding all its parts in meaningful relationships, the | course it runs directed, and its outcome sure. |
| W1:170.10 | think that fear is the escape from fear. Let us remember what the | course has stressed about the obstacles to peace. The final one, the |
| W1:R5.1 | and doubts have made us walk uncertainly and slowly on the road this | course sets forth. But now we hasten on, for we approach a greater |
| W1:R5.7 | from dust to life as we remember This is promised us, and that this | course was sent to open up the path of light to us, and teach us, |
| W1:I2.1 | that you will give your total willingness to following the way the | course sets forth. |

| W1:189.7 | ever learned before from anything. Forget this world, forget this | course, and come with wholly empty hands unto your God. |
| W1:193.17 | follows, and when that one goes, let everything that happens in its | course go with it. Thus will you remain unbound, in peace eternal in |
| W1:194.5 | the bondage of illusions where it runs its pitiless, inevitable | course. Then is each instant, which was slave to time, transformed |
| W1:199.3 | It is essential for your progress in this | course that you accept today's idea and hold it very dear. Be not |
| W2:I.1 | of pain and go to enter peace. Now we begin to reach the goal this | course has set and find the end toward which our practicing was |

| M:2.2 | of salvation, it is necessary to grasp the concept of time which the | course sets forth. Atonement corrects illusions, not the truth. |
| M:2.3 | and only then will you realize that it was always there. As the | course emphasizes, you are not free to choose the curriculum or even |

| M:16.3 | the workbook, since we are learning within the framework of our | course. After completion of the more structured practice periods |
| M:16.4 | This | course is always practical. It may be that the teacher of God is not |

| M:23.7 | This | course has come from him, because his words have reached you in a |
| M:24.1 | question should be, “Is the concept helpful?” And that depends of | course on what it is used for. If it is used to strengthen the |
| M:24.3 | merely limit his usefulness as well as his own decision-making. Our | course is not concerned with any concept that is not acceptable to |
| M:24.3 | Nor would there be an advantage in his premature acceptance of the | course merely because it advocates a long-held belief of his own. |
| M:24.4 | It cannot be too strongly emphasized that this | course aims at a complete reversal of thought. When this is finally |

| Tx:1.105 | Child of God, you were created to | create the good, the beautiful, and the holy. Do not lose sight of |
| Tx:2.3 | health and mental illness. We have already observed that man can | create an empty shell, but he cannot create nothing at all. This |
| Tx:2.3 | already observed that man can create an empty shell, but he cannot | create nothing at all. This emptiness provides the screen for the |
| Tx:2.5 | He created, and He also imbued them with the same loving will to | create. The Soul has not only been fully created but has also been |

| Tx:2.24 | use had not been sufficiently understood as yet. They can indeed | create man's perception both of himself and of the world. They can |
| Tx:2.53 | is only because it is responding to mis-thought. The body cannot | create, and the belief that it can, a fundamental error, produces all |
| Tx:2.54 | that the mind, which is the only level of creation, cannot | create beyond itself, neither type of confusion need occur. |
| Tx:2.55 | The reason only the mind can | create is more obvious than may be immediately apparent. The Soul has |
| Tx:2.61 | It is essential to remember that only the mind can | create. Implicit in this is the corollary that correction belongs at |
| Tx:2.105 | correct his magic-miracle confusion is to remember that he did not | create himself. He is apt to forget this when he becomes egocentric, |
| Tx:2.105 | belief in magic in some form is virtually inevitable. His will to | create was given him by his own Creator, Who was expressing the same |
| Tx:3.7 | error and an affirmation of the truth. Only right-mindedness can | create in a way that has any real effect. Pragmatically, what has no |
| Tx:3.15 | conscience” from the past has nothing to do with God. He did not | create it, and He does not maintain it. God does not believe in |
| Tx:3.15 | God does not believe in karmic retribution. His Divine Mind does not | create that way. He does not hold the evil deeds of a man even |
| Tx:3.37 | accept His certainty.” There are no strangers in His creation. To | create as He created, you can create only what you know and accept as |
| Tx:3.37 | are no strangers in His creation. To create as He created, you can | create only what you know and accept as yours. God knows His Children |
| Tx:3.38 | of knowledge, because he can perceive lovelessly. He cannot | create surely, because his perception deceives [and illusions are not |
| Tx:3.42 | cannot escape from fear until he knows that he did not and could not | create himself. He can never make his misperceptions valid. His |
| Tx:3.45 | The mind chose to divide itself when it willed to | create both its own levels and the ability to perceive, but it could |
| Tx:3.45 | Soul because it is from the Soul that it derives its whole power to | create. Even in miscreation will is affirming its Source or it would |
| Tx:3.53 | The confusion between your own creation and what you | create is so profound that it has become literally impossible for you |
| Tx:3.57 | “thought” and “likeness” is taken as “of a like quality.” God did | create the Soul in His own Thought and of a quality like to His own. |
| Tx:3.76 | by its weakness and explained by a tendency of the self to | create an image of itself. Its fear aspect is often ascribed to fear |
| Tx:3.77 | one thing that is literally inconceivable. That is why you cannot | create and are filled with fear about what you make. |
| Tx:4.14 | except in delusions. Your ego is never at stake because God did not | create it. Your Soul is never at stake because He did. Any confusion |
| Tx:4.16 | is not the author of fear. You are. You have chosen, therefore, to | create unlike Him, and you have made fear for yourselves. You are not |
| Tx:4.34 | in ego terms must be a delusion. The creations of God do not | create myths, although the creative efforts of man can turn to |
| Tx:4.41 | The Kingdom of Heaven is you. What else but you did the Creator | create, and what else but you is His Kingdom? This is the whole |
| Tx:4.42 | You too have a kingdom which your Soul created. It has not ceased to | create because your ego has set you on the road of perception. Your |
| Tx:4.99 | are irrelevant because real creation gives everything, since it can | create only like itself. Remember that in being there is no |
| Tx:5.23 | Freedom to choose is the same power as freedom to | create, but its application is different. Choosing means divided |
| Tx:5.57 | The Atonement gives you the power of a healed mind, but the power to | create is of God. Therefore, those who have been forgiven must devote |
| Tx:5.57 | The joint will of all the Sonship is the only creator that can | create like the Father, because only the complete can think |
| Tx:5.59 | the Kingdom is attained through the Atonement, which releases you to | create. The word “create” is appropriate here because, once what you |
| Tx:5.70 | What you will, you expect. This is not delusional. Your mind does | create your future, and it can turn it back to full creation at any |
| Tx:6.32 | by the Holy Spirit under the laws of God. God created you to | create. You cannot extend His Kingdom until you know of its wholeness. |
| Tx:6.80 | nothing is difficult that is wholly desired. To desire wholly is to | create, and creating cannot be difficult if God Himself created you |
| Tx:6.88 | Choosing through the Holy Spirit will lead you to the Kingdom. You | create by what you are, but this is what you must learn. The way to |
| Tx:7.1 | in which you share, and because you share it, you are inspired to | create like God. Yet in creation you are not in reciprocal relation |
| Tx:7.1 | in reciprocal relation to God, since He created you, but you did not | create Him. We have already said that only in this respect your |
| Tx:7.3 | in God. You are part of God, as your sons are part of His Sons. To | create is to love. Love extends outward simply because it cannot be |
| Tx:7.3 | He has always been. Your creations have always been, because you can | create only as God creates. Eternity is yours, because He created you |
| Tx:7.4 | to limit giving, and this is not God's Will. To will with God is to | create like Him. God does not limit His gifts in any way. You are His |
| Tx:7.6 | To think like God is to share His certainty of what you are and to | create like Him is to share the perfect love He shares with you. To |
| Tx:7.14 | God Himself created the law by creating by it. And His Sons, who | create like Him, follow it gladly, knowing that the increase of the |
| Tx:7.40 | the impulse to communicate because it is also the impulse to | create, the ego can only teach you that the body can both communicate |
| Tx:7.40 | the ego can only teach you that the body can both communicate and | create and therefore does not need the mind. The ego thus tries to |
| Tx:7.54 | at all. Fear and love are equally reciprocal. They make or | create, depending on whether the ego or the Holy Spirit begets or |
| Tx:7.67 | attack your thought system and divide your allegiance. You cannot | create in this divided state, and you must be vigilant against this |
| Tx:7.82 | and therefore one which always operates. It is the law by which you | create and were created. It is the law which unifies the Kingdom and |
| Tx:7.93 | its being as its Creator did. Created by sharing, its will is to | create. It does not wish to contain God but to extend His Being. The |
| Tx:7.93 | and that is why you perceive yourselves as unfulfilled. Unless you | create, you are unfulfilled; but God does not know of unfulfillment, |
| Tx:7.93 | but God does not know of unfulfillment, and therefore you must | create. You may not know your own creations, but this can no more |
| Tx:7.112 | worthy to be co-creator with God, because only the whole Sonship can | create like Him. Whenever you heal a brother by recognizing his |
| Tx:7.112 | brother by recognizing his worth, you are acknowledging his power to | create and yours. He cannot have lost what you recognize, and you |
| Tx:8.43 | but because nothing else is worthy of him. What God and His Sons | create is eternal, and in this and this only is their joy. |
| Tx:8.47 | who he is. Creation is the Will of God. His Will created you to | create. Your will was not created separate from His, and so it wills |
| Tx:8.49 | be alone. That is why He created His Son and gave him the power to | create with Him. |
| Tx:8.104 | created. As long as you believe that fear is possible, you will not | create. Opposing orders of reality make reality meaningless, and |
| Tx:9.8 | time, because that is what time is for. God gave you the function to | create in eternity. You do not need to learn this, but you do need to |
| Tx:9.34 | you, but not even this would He keep from you. Therefore you can | create as He did, and your dissociation will not alter this. Neither |
| Tx:9.34 | nor yours is dimmed because you do not see. Because the Sonship must | create as one, you remember creation whenever you recognize part of |
| Tx:9.61 | Himself. He created you for Himself, but He gave you the power to | create for your self so you could be like Him. That is why your will |
| Tx:9.67 | the instant you desire it wholly, for if to desire wholly is to | create, you will have willed away the separation, returning your mind |
| Tx:9.82 | by making him, you made yourself able to hear him. Yet you did not | create him, because he is not the Will of the Father. He is therefore |
| Tx:9.92 | unseen. Perceiving the spark will heal, but knowing the light will | create. Yet in the returning, the little light must be acknowledged |
| Tx:9.97 | by nothing. Your gods are nothing, because your Father did not | create them. You cannot make creators who are unlike your Creator any |
| Tx:9.97 | created a Son who was unlike Him. If creation is sharing, it cannot | create what is unlike itself. It can share only what it is. |
| Tx:9.105 | Do not perceive anything God did not | create, or you are denying Him. His is the only Fatherhood, and it is |
| Tx:10.8 | the Eternal, Who placed no limits on His creation nor upon those who | create like Him. You do not know this simply because you have tried |
| Tx:10.11 | as He gives. Your fatherhood and your Father are one. God willed to | create, and your will is His. It follows, then, that you will to |
| Tx:10.11 | to create, and your will is His. It follows, then, that you will to | create since your will follows from His. And being an extension of |
| Tx:10.25 | beauty that you will know it is not of you. Out of your joy you will | create beauty in His name, for your joy could no more be contained |
| Tx:10.71 | which is true. To establish your personal autonomy, you tried to | create unlike your Father, believing what you made to be capable of |
| Tx:13.9 | to the Fatherhood of God, and He has given you the power to | create the witnesses to [yours, which is as His. Deny a brother here, |
| Tx:13.52 | deny it. Undoing is indirect, as doing is. You were created only to | create, neither to see nor do. These are but indirect expressions of |
| Tx:14.37 | with which the Father joins Himself to those He gives the power to | create like Him can never be dissolved. Heaven itself is union with |
| Tx:17.26 | to enable you to hurt yourselves through them. They were created to | create with you. This is the truth that I would interpose between you |
| Tx:17.28 | In this world it is impossible to | create, yet it is possible to make happy. We have said repeatedly |
| Tx:18.34 | but the determination to be as you would make yourself? God did not | create His dwelling-place unworthy of Him. And if you believe He |
| Tx:18.57 | is. Yet this could only be if God were wrong. God would have had to | create differently and to have separated Himself from His Son to make |
| Tx:18.57 | Himself from His Son to make this possible. He would have had to | create different things and to establish different orders of reality, |
| Tx:18.58 | this be outside you? Where God is not? Is He a body, and did He | create you as He is not and where He cannot be? You are surrounded |
| Tx:18.94 | is not the end. Forgiveness does make lovely, but it does not | create. It is the source of healing, but it is the messenger of love |
| Tx:21.25 | its maker thinks it causes. Long ago we spoke of your desire to | create your own Creator and be father and not son to Him. This is the |
| Tx:21.26 | you made the world you see as that you recognize that you did not | create yourself. They are the same mistake. Nothing created not by |
| Tx:21.27 | It is the Source of his creating. Apart from this he has no power to | create, and what he makes is meaningless. It changes nothing in |
| Tx:23.48 | Son of Life. How can a body be extended to hold the universe? Can it | create and be what it creates? And can it offer its creations all |
| Tx:23.49 | God does not share His function with a body. He gave the function to | create unto His Son because it is His own. It is not sinful to |
| Tx:24.40 | lack faith that it is so. Wishing makes real, as surely as does will | create. The power of a wish upholds illusions as strongly as does |
| Tx:25.53 | insane. This world is meaningless because it rests on sin. Who could | create the changeless if it does not rest on truth? |
| Tx:28.16 | by its effects; the Father is a father by His Son. Effects do not | create their cause, but they establish its causation. Thus, the Son |
| Tx:28.47 | exist because God shared His Will with you, that His creation might | create. |
| Tx:29.23 | freedom is it given unto you. Make way for love, which you did not | create, but which you can extend. On earth this means forgive your |
| Tx:30.60 | The final step is God's because it is but God Who could | create a perfect Son and share His Fatherhood with him. No one |
| Tx:30.62 | and what you are, forgiveness washes joyfully away. Yet God need not | create His Son again that what is his be given back to him. The gap |
| Tx:31.79 | you. For vision can but represent a wish, because it has no power to | create. Yet it can look with love or look with hate, depending only |
| W1:14.1 | the reason why a meaningless world is impossible. What God did not | create does not exist. And everything that does exist exists as He |
| W1:14.4 | each one as it occurs to you, and then deny its reality. God did not | create it, and so it is not real. Say, for example: |
| W1:14.5 | God did not | create that war, and so it is not real. God did not create that |
| W1:14.5 | God did not create that war, and so it is not real. God did not | create that airplane crash, and so it is not real. God did not create |
| W1:14.5 | not create that airplane crash, and so it is not real. God did not | create that disaster [specify], and so it is not real. |
| W1:14.6 | Do not use general terms. For example, do not say, “God did not | create illness,” but, “God did not create cancer,” or heart attacks, |
| W1:14.6 | example, do not say, “God did not create illness,” but, “God did not | create cancer,” or heart attacks, or whatever may arouse fear in you. |
| W1:14.7 | are part of your personal hell. It does not matter. What God did not | create can only be in your own mind apart from His. Therefore, it has |
| W1:14.8 | God did not | create a meaningless world. |
| W1:14.10 | God did not | create a meaningless world. He did not create [specify the situation |
| W1:14.10 | God did not create a meaningless world. He did not | create [specify the situation which is disturbing you], and so it is |
| W1:16.1 | or weak. They are merely true or false. Those which are true | create their own likeness. Those which are false make theirs. |
| W1:53.5 | [14] God did not | create a meaningless world. How can a meaningless world exist if God |
| W1:53.5 | meaningless world. How can a meaningless world exist if God did not | create it? He is the Source of all meaning, and everything that is |
| W1:73.3 | created by the will the Son of God shares with his Father? Did God | create disaster for His Son? Creation is the will of Both together. |
| W1:73.3 | for His Son? Creation is the will of Both together. Would God | create a world that kills Himself? |
| W1:84.4 | As I look on this, let me remember my Creator. My Creator did not | create this as I see it. |
| W1:132.12 | and love. Are these inherent in the world you see? Does it | create like Him? Unless it does, it is not real and cannot be at all. |
| W1:186.9 | Is this the Son of God? Could He | create such instability and call it Son? He Who is changeless shares |
| W2:276.1 | Son He loves, for thus was he created. This the Word His Son did not | create with Him because in this His Son was born. Let us accept His |
| W2:294.1 | I am a Son of God. And can I be another thing as well? Did God | create the mortal and corruptible? What use has God's beloved Son for |
| W2:WICR.2 | Thus His Son shares in creation and must therefore share in power to | create. What God has willed to be forever one will still be one when |
| W2:326.1 | Let me know that I am an Effect of God, and so I have the power to | create like You. And as it is in Heaven, so on earth. Your plan I |
| W2:WIM.1 | A miracle is a correction. It does not | create nor really change at all. It merely looks on devastation and |

| Tx:2.51 | This is because of the inestimable value of the altar itself. It was | created perfect and is entirely worthy of receiving perfection. God |
| Tx:2.54 | illness represents a belief in magic. The whole distortion which | created magic rests on the belief that there is a creative ability in |
| Tx:2.55 | is more obvious than may be immediately apparent. The Soul has been | created. The body is a learning device for the mind. Learning devices |
| Tx:2.57 | It was the first level of the error to believe that the body | created its own illness. It is a second misstep to attempt to heal it |
| Tx:2.61 | learning device is not subject to errors of its own because it was | created but is not creating. It should be obvious, then, that |
| Tx:2.98 | said that man believes he cannot control fear because he himself | created it. His belief in it seems to render it out of his control by |
| Tx:2.101 | especially be noted that God has only one Son. If all the Souls God | created are His Sons, then every Soul must be an integral part of the |
| Tx:2.109 | only what is good, just as God Himself looked upon what He had | created and knew that it was good. |
| Tx:2.111 | however, apply it meaningfully and at any time to everything he has | created and retain in his memory only what is good. This is what his |

| Tx:3.5 | 2. Clear distinction between what has been created and what is being | created is essential. All forms of correction (or healing) rest on |
| Tx:3.37 | certainty.” There are no strangers in His creation. To create as He | created, you can create only what you know and accept as yours. God |
| Tx:3.37 | accept as yours. God knows His Children with perfect certainty. He | created them by knowing them. He recognized them perfectly. When they |
| Tx:3.38 | the levels of the Trinity are capable of unity. The levels which man | created by the separation cannot but conflict. This is because they |
| Tx:3.41 | the questioning compartment in the post-separation psyche which man | created for himself. It is capable of asking valid questions but not |
| Tx:3.45 | to be. This is impossible because it is part of the Soul which God | created and which is therefore eternal. |
| Tx:3.48 | God and the Souls He | created remain in surety, and therefore know that no miscreation |
| Tx:3.53 | human beings are not. Nevertheless, they are perfectly stable as God | created them. In this sense, when their behavior is unstable they are |
| Tx:3.57 | “God | created man in His own image and likeness” is correct in meaning, but |
| Tx:3.67 | it sounds meaningful to consider the possibility that they must have | created themselves. |
| Tx:3.68 | position, it is in one sense more tenable than the view that they | created themselves. At least it acknowledges the fact that some true |
| Tx:3.73 | in combat with God, battling Him for possession of the Souls He | created. He deceives by lies and builds kingdoms of his own in which |
| Tx:3.75 | which was forbidden was named the “tree of knowledge.” Yet God | created knowledge and gave it freely to His creations. The symbolism |
| Tx:3.80 | truth, and truth can be known by all those for whom the Kingdom was | created and for whom it waits. |
| Tx:4.17 | only to God, Who is as incapable of deception as are the Souls He | created. |
| Tx:4.42 | You too have a kingdom which your Soul | created. It has not ceased to create because your ego has set you on |
| Tx:4.52 | will be unable to ask me to do so. I can help you only as our Father | created us. I will love you and honor you and maintain complete |
| Tx:4.57 | be. In every case you have thought wrongly about some Soul that God | created and are perceiving images your ego makes in a darkened glass. |
| Tx:4.66 | over part of the minds of men and the healing of the mind. I was | created like you in the first, and I have called you to join with me |
| Tx:4.68 | that life is an eternal attribute of everything that the living God | created. Why do you believe it is harder for me to inspire the |
| Tx:4.90 | you are grateful to each other, you are grateful to God for what He | created. Through your gratitude, you can come to know each other, and |
| Tx:4.96 | what is true. It knows that what is true is everything that God | created. It is in complete and direct communication with every aspect |
| Tx:4.97 | is the Will of God. Creation and communication are synonymous. God | created every mind by communicating His Mind to it, thus establishing |
| Tx:4.97 | not subject to any judgment, any exception, or any alteration. God | created you by this and for this. The mind can distort its function, |
| Tx:4.99 | God, Who encompasses all being, nevertheless | created beings who have everything individually but who want to share |
| Tx:4.99 | is real can be increased except by sharing. That is why God Himself | created you. Divine Abstraction takes joy in application, and that is |
| Tx:4.100 | when His channels are closed, and He is lonely when the minds He | created do not communicate fully with Him. |
| Tx:5.5 | Soul holds everything by giving it and thus creates as the Father | created. |
| Tx:5.27 | My mind will always be like yours, because we were | created as equals. It was only my decision that gave me all power in |
| Tx:5.29 | whole Sonship and to bring it back into the Oneness in which it was | created. Remember that “yoke” means “join together” and “burden” |
| Tx:5.46 | but entirely within your grasp. It belongs to you because you | created it. It is yours because it is a part of you, just as you are |
| Tx:5.46 | because it is a part of you, just as you are part of God because He | created you. |
| Tx:5.47 | Spirit, the Voice for creation. Nothing that is not good was ever | created and therefore cannot be protected. What the ego makes, it |
| Tx:5.52 | The mind that was in me is still irresistibly drawn to every mind | created by God, because God's Wholeness is the wholeness of His Son. |
| Tx:5.55 | you, because to forsake you would be to forsake myself and God who | created me. You will forsake yourselves and God if you forsake any of |
| Tx:5.63 | it to enter makes it your reality. This is because the mind, as God | created it, is capable of creating reality. We said before that you |
| Tx:5.67 | The ego and the Holy Spirit are the only choices open to you. God | created one, and so you cannot eradicate it. You made the other, and |
| Tx:5.68 | disorder. God Himself orders your thought because your thought was | created by Him. Guilt feelings are always a sign that you do not know |
| Tx:5.90 | His care and use the infinite power of His care for all those He | created by it. |
| Tx:5.91 | of difficulty in miracles. He has not learned that every mind God | created is equally worthy of being healed because God created it |
| Tx:5.91 | every mind God created is equally worthy of being healed because God | created it whole. You are merely asked to return to God the mind as |
| Tx:5.91 | it whole. You are merely asked to return to God the mind as He | created it. He asks you only for what He gave, knowing that this |
| Tx:5.94 | because you have reacted with a lack of love to some Soul which God | created. Perceiving this as “sin,” you become defensive because you |
| Tx:6.24 | power of the Sons of God is operating all the time because they were | created as creators. Their influence on each other is without limit |
| Tx:6.30 | not there? You cannot be anywhere that God did not put you, and God | created you as part of Him. That is both where you are and what you |
| Tx:6.31 | end where it began. Everything meets in God, because everything was | created by Him and in Him. |
| Tx:6.32 | God | created His Sons by extending His Thought and retaining the |
| Tx:6.32 | united within themselves and with each other, because they were | created neither partially nor in part. The Holy Spirit enables you to |
| Tx:6.32 | of inclusion, directed by the Holy Spirit under the laws of God. God | created you to create. You cannot extend His Kingdom until you know |
| Tx:6.46 | When God | created you, He made you part of Him. That is why attack within the |
| Tx:6.50 | You are a Child of God, a priceless part of His Kingdom, which He | created as part of Him. Nothing else exists, and only this is real. |
| Tx:6.51 | Yet the Kingdom and all that you have | created there will have great reality for you, because they are |
| Tx:6.53 | or you cannot use them. This is not true of anything that God | created, but it is the kindest solution possible to what you have |
| Tx:6.55 | not exist. Fidelity to premises is a law of mind, and everything God | created is faithful to His laws. Fidelity to other laws is also |
| Tx:6.55 | have sinned? If He confronted the self you made with the truth He | created for you, what could you be but afraid? You would doubt your |
| Tx:6.56 | not there. God is not conflicted. Teaching aims at change, but God | created only the changeless. The separation was not a loss of |
| Tx:6.76 | which voice is true, but the Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was | created by God, and your decision cannot change it. As you begin to |
| Tx:6.80 | wholly is to create, and creating cannot be difficult if God Himself | created you as a creator. The second step, then, is still perceptual, |
| Tx:6.89 | only what God put there, you are acknowledging your mind as God | created it. Therefore, you are accepting it as it is. Since it is |
| Tx:6.92 | transfers to the whole Sonship, which is immeasurable because it was | created by the Immeasurable, the learning itself must be incomplete. |
| Tx:7.1 | Yet in creation you are not in reciprocal relation to God, since He | created you, but you did not create Him. We have already said that |
| Tx:7.2 | If you | created God and He created you, the Kingdom could not increase |
| Tx:7.2 | If you created God and He | created you, the Kingdom could not increase through its own creative |
| Tx:7.2 | God's accomplishments are not yours. But yours are like His. He | created the Sonship, and you increase it. You have the power to add |
| Tx:7.3 | you can create only as God creates. Eternity is yours, because He | created you eternal. |
| Tx:7.5 | I was. What you believe you are determines your gifts, and if God | created you by extending Himself as you, you can only extend yourself |
| Tx:7.7 | His creations are changeless. He does nothing last, because He | created first and for always. It must be understood that the word |
| Tx:7.7 | in the Holy Trinity itself. He is the Prime Creator, because He | created His co-creators. Because He did, time applies neither to Him |
| Tx:7.7 | Because He did, time applies neither to Him nor to what He | created. The “last step” that God [was said to] take was therefore |
| Tx:7.8 | changeless. It does not change by increase, because it was forever | created to increase. If you perceive it as not increasing, you do not |
| Tx:7.8 | increasing, you do not know what it is. You also do not know what | created it or Who He is. God does not reveal this to you, because it |
| Tx:7.14 | law is not adapted at all, being the law of creation. God Himself | created the law by creating by it. And His Sons, who create like Him, |
| Tx:7.25 | the light. You did not make this power, any more than I did. It was | created to be shared and therefore cannot be meaningfully perceived |
| Tx:7.46 | with Him. You cannot separate your self from your Creator, Who | created you by sharing His being with you. |
| Tx:7.47 | his mind he has changed the most powerful device that was ever | created for change. |
| Tx:7.48 | This in no way contradicts the changelessness of mind as God | created it, but you think that you have changed it as long as you |
| Tx:7.50 | That is how God Himself | created you—in understanding, in appreciation, and in love. The ego |
| Tx:7.50 | of the increase of the Kingdom by your creations, which can only be | created as you were. The whole glory and perfect joy that is the |
| Tx:7.51 | I cannot forget Him. To forget me is to forget yourself and Him Who | created you. Our brothers are forgetful. That is why they need your |
| Tx:7.51 | forgetful. That is why they need your remembrance of me and Him who | created me. Through this remembrance, you can change their minds |
| Tx:7.67 | Kingdom, you are not thinking with your Creator and creating as He | created. |
| Tx:7.69 | can only accomplish perfectly, extending the joy in which it was | created and identifying itself with both its Creator and its |
| Tx:7.76 | Only honor is a fitting gift for those whom God Himself | created worthy of honor and whom He honors. Give them the |
| Tx:7.76 | in His love and protect your rest by loving. But love everything He | created of which you are a part, or you cannot learn of His peace and |
| Tx:7.76 | know your own perfection until you have honored all those who were | created like you. |
| Tx:7.82 | which always operates. It is the law by which you create and were | created. It is the law which unifies the Kingdom and keeps it in the |
| Tx:7.91 | the ego, but self-fullness is of the Soul, because that is how God | created it. The Holy Spirit is the part of the mind that lies between |
| Tx:7.92 | which includes God, and any totality must include God. Everything He | created is given all His power, because it is part of Him and shares |
| Tx:7.93 | The Soul yearns to share its being as its Creator did. | Created by sharing, its will is to create. It does not wish to |
| Tx:7.95 | Son of God are yours since every creation belongs to everyone, being | created for the Sonship as a whole. |
| Tx:7.108 | well. Everything he does becomes a strain, because he was not | created for the environment that he has made. He therefore cannot |
| Tx:7.109 | cannot make it any more than you can make yourselves. It has been | created for you, as you were created for it. God watches over His |
| Tx:7.109 | you can make yourselves. It has been created for you, as you were | created for it. God watches over His Children and denies them |
| Tx:7.111 | since truth is the environment by which and for which you were | created. |
| Tx:7.112 | not know your creations, because you do not know your brothers, who | created them with you. We said before that only the whole Sonship is |
| Tx:7.112 | his creative power, and you are denying yours and that of God, Who | created you. You cannot deny part of truth. You do not know your |
| Tx:7.113 | His Being with you, you can know Him. But you must also know all He | created to know what they have shared. Without your Father, you will |
| Tx:8.13 | Deny yourself this and you are denying God His Kingdom because He | created you for this. When we said, “All power and glory are yours |
| Tx:8.14 | its extension is unlimited, and it encompasses all things because it | created all things. By creating all things, it made them part of |
| Tx:8.14 | of itself. You are the Will of God, because this is how you were | created. Because your Creator creates only like Himself, you are like |
| Tx:8.16 | your minds. There is no limit on His Will to teach, because He was | created [by unlimited Will in order] to teach. Knowing His function |
| Tx:8.18 | their joint will. This is perfect creation by the perfectly | created in union with Perfect Creator. The Father must give |
| Tx:8.32 | Nothing God | created can oppose your will, as nothing God created can oppose His. |
| Tx:8.32 | Nothing God created can oppose your will, as nothing God | created can oppose His. God gave your will its power, which I can |
| Tx:8.33 | is in Him. Join then with me in praise of Him and you whom He | created. This is our gift of gratitude to Him, which He will share |
| Tx:8.43 | Yet God did not will the destruction of His creations, having | created them for eternity. His Will has saved you, not from |
| Tx:8.43 | whom the world denies, for over His Kingdom, it has no power. No one | created by God can find joy in anything except the eternal. That is |
| Tx:8.45 | as He wants His. Your creations are your gift to the Holy Trinity, | created in gratitude for your creation. They do not leave you, any |
| Tx:8.45 | And what is real except the creations of God and those which are | created like His? Your creations love you as your Soul loves your |
| Tx:8.47 | unless he knows who he is. Creation is the Will of God. His Will | created you to create. Your will was not created separate from His, |
| Tx:8.47 | the Will of God. His Will created you to create. Your will was not | created separate from His, and so it wills as He wills. |
| Tx:8.49 | us be alone, because He does not will to be alone. That is why He | created His Son and gave him the power to create with Him. |
| Tx:8.85 | is impossible since it would mean to make nothing out of what God | created. The ego despises weakness, even though it makes every effort |
| Tx:8.98 | want, you are asking for what cannot be given, because it was never | created. It was never created, because it was never your will for you. |
| Tx:8.98 | for what cannot be given, because it was never created. It was never | created, because it was never your will for you. |
| Tx:8.102 | cannot change laws you did not make, and the laws of happiness were | created for you, not by you. |
| Tx:8.103 | How real can this devotion be? If you do not want it, it was never | created. If it was never created, it is nothing. Can you really |
| Tx:8.103 | be? If you do not want it, it was never created. If it was never | created, it is nothing. Can you really devote yourself to nothing? |
| Tx:8.104 | God in His devotion to you | created you devoted to everything and gave you what you are devoted |
| Tx:8.104 | gave you what you are devoted to. Otherwise, you would not have been | created perfect. Reality is everything, and therefore you have |
| Tx:8.104 | because the absence of reality is fearful, and fear cannot be | created. As long as you believe that fear is possible, you will not |
| Tx:8.112 | It must be for your brother because it is for you. Would God have | created a Voice for you alone? Could you hear His answer except as He |
| Tx:9.7 | know of arrogance. The Holy Spirit forgives everything, because God | created everything. |
| Tx:9.11 | the ability to share, He translates what you have made into what God | created. If you would accomplish this through Him, you cannot look on |
| Tx:9.17 | This is the Second Coming, which was made for you as the First was | created. The Second Coming is merely the return of sense. Can this |
| Tx:9.33 | part of you, everything we do belongs to you as well. Every Soul God | created is part of you and shares His glory with you. His Glory |
| Tx:9.34 | God is more than you only because He | created you, but not even this would He keep from you. Therefore you |
| Tx:9.35 | value. They will become the witnesses to your reality, as you were | created witnesses to God's. Yet when the Sonship comes together and |
| Tx:9.37 | nothing else, for in him you will find your creations, because he | created them with you. You will never know that you are co-creator |
| Tx:9.52 | it because it is a form of attack, but your grandeur is of God, Who | created it out of His Love. From your grandeur you can only bless, |
| Tx:9.55 | pride, because pride is not shared. God wants you to behold what He | created, because it is His joy. |
| Tx:9.56 | because it is used to replace your grandeur. Yet what God has | created cannot be replaced. God is incomplete without you, because |
| Tx:9.57 | Mind and therefore not in yours alone. To accept yourself as God | created you cannot be arrogance, because it is the denial of |
| Tx:9.60 | God | created nothing beside you, and nothing beside you exists, for you |
| Tx:9.60 | how can the ephemeral be real if you are God's only creation, and He | created you eternal? Your holy will establishes everything that |
| Tx:9.61 | He knows can be known because He does not know only for Himself. He | created you for Himself, but He gave you the power to create for your |
| Tx:9.64 | them as long as your minds are split, and to attack what you have | created is impossible. But remember that it is as impossible for God. |
| Tx:9.64 | as yourself because they are part of you. Everything that was | created is therefore perfectly safe, because the laws of God protect |
| Tx:9.77 | a Son of God is sick is to worship the same idol he does. God | created love, not idolatry. All forms of idolatry are caricatures of |
| Tx:9.79 | Kingdom, but there is great appreciation for every Soul which God | created because of the calm knowledge that each one is part of Him. |
| Tx:9.85 | be reconciled. Sickness and perfection are irreconcilable. If God | created you perfect, you are perfect. If you believe you can be sick, |
| Tx:9.88 | and therefore chaotic. Yet God Himself has protected everything He | created by His laws. Therefore, everything that is not under them |
| Tx:9.89 | ever operated, and nothing except His Will will ever be. You were | created through His laws and by His Will, and the manner of your |
| Tx:9.90 | and your reality affect truth at all. Peace is yours because God | created you. And He created nothing else. |
| Tx:9.90 | affect truth at all. Peace is yours because God created you. And He | created nothing else. |
| Tx:9.96 | not accept the fact that, although he was a creator, he had been | created. Yet the Son is helpless without the Father, Who alone is his |
| Tx:9.97 | creators who are unlike your Creator any more than He could have | created a Son who was unlike Him. If creation is sharing, it cannot |
| Tx:9.97 | what it is. Depression is isolation, and so it could not have been | created. |
| Tx:9.99 | learn of Him if you hear aright. The love of God is in everything He | created, for His Son is everywhere. Look with peace upon your |
| Tx:9.101 | If you will accept yourself as God | created you, you will be incapable of suffering. Yet to do this, you |
| Tx:9.101 | Father is the acknowledgment of yourself as you are. Your Father | created you wholly without sin, wholly without pain, and wholly |
| Tx:9.103 | removed himself from His gift by refusing to accept what had been | created for him and what he himself had created in the Name of his |
| Tx:9.103 | to accept what had been created for him and what he himself had | created in the Name of his Father. Heaven waits for his return, for |
| Tx:9.103 | in the Name of his Father. Heaven waits for his return, for it was | created as the dwelling place of God's Son. You are not at home |
| Tx:9.103 | or in any other condition. Do not deny yourself the joy which was | created for you for the misery you have made for yourselves. God has |
| Tx:9.104 | blasphemy may take are refusals to accept creation as it is. If God | created His Son perfect, that is how you must learn to see him to |
| Tx:10.3 | You have made by projection, but God has | created by extension. The cornerstone of God's creation is you, for |
| Tx:10.8 | simply by recognizing that neither beginnings nor endings were | created by the Eternal, Who placed no limits on His creation nor upon |
| Tx:10.8 | You do not know this simply because you have tried to limit what He | created, and so you believe that all creation is limited. How, then, |
| Tx:10.9 | and He is not childless. Because He did not will to be alone, He | created a Son like Himself. Do not deny Him His Son, for your |
| Tx:10.9 | has denied you yours. See His creations as His Son, for yours were | created in honor of Him. The universe of love does not stop because |
| Tx:10.13 | time you cannot live apart from Him, for sleep is not death. What He | created can sleep, but it cannot die. Immortality is His Will for His |
| Tx:10.26 | for they are not fit companions for the Son of God, who was | created of light and in light. The Great Light always surrounds you |
| Tx:10.31 | all your understanding is lost because you are looking on what God | created as yourself without love. And since what He created is part |
| Tx:10.31 | on what God created as yourself without love. And since what He | created is part of Him, you are denying Him His place in His own |
| Tx:10.33 | to you. Every altar to God is part of your Soul because the light He | created is one with Him. Would you cut off a brother from the light |
| Tx:10.57 | truth. The witnesses for God stand in His light and behold what He | created. Their silence is the sign that they have beheld God's Son, |
| Tx:10.62 | and ever shall be, for such is the nature of God's Son as His Father | created him. |
| Tx:10.63 | the altar of his god, whether it be the god he made or the God who | created him. That is why his slavery is as complete as his freedom, |
| Tx:10.69 | The world as you perceive it cannot have been | created by the Father, for the world is not as you see it. God |
| Tx:10.69 | been created by the Father, for the world is not as you see it. God | created only the eternal, and everything you see is perishable. |
| Tx:10.72 | do not know the difference between what you have made and what God | created, and so you do not know the difference between what you have |
| Tx:10.72 | not know the difference between what you have made and what you have | created. |
| Tx:10.82 | it can only free you. Nothing of God will enslave His Son, whom He | created free and whose freedom is protected by His Being. |
| Tx:10.84 | thought is as loving as the Thought of His Father by which He was | created. Be not deceived in God's Son, for thereby you must be |
| Tx:11.22 | Redeemer liveth and abideth in you in the peace out of which He was | created. Would you not exchange this awareness for the awareness of |
| Tx:11.71 | me and all your brothers in the perfect safety of the mind which | created us. For we are there in the peace of the Father, Who wills to |
| Tx:11.72 | see me as you look within, and we will look upon the world as God | created it together. Through the eyes of Christ, only the real world |
| Tx:11.78 | not change, but you did. For a split mind and all its works were not | created by the Father and could not live in the knowledge of Him. |
| Tx:11.79 | Holy Spirit sees. The definition of reality is God's, not yours. He | created it, and He knows what it is. You who knew have forgotten, and |
| Tx:11.93 | untouched forever in God's Mind. God's Son will always be as he was | created. Deny your world and judge him not, for his eternal |
| Tx:11.94 | of his Being, which is his perfect blamelessness. Out of love he was | created, and in love he abides. Goodness and mercy have always |
| Tx:12.47 | and in His changelessness lies your release. For if He is as He was | created, there is no guilt in Him. No cloud of guilt has risen to |
| Tx:12.66 | of God unto His Son. Your one reality was given you, and by it God | created you as one with Him. |
| Tx:13.6 | of God. The only miracle that ever was is God's most holy Son, | created in the One Reality that is his Father. Christ's vision is His |
| Tx:13.9 | the witnesses to] your fatherhood in Heaven. The miracle which God | created is perfect, as are the miracles which you created in His |
| Tx:13.9 | miracle which God created is perfect, as are the miracles which you | created in His name. They need no healing, nor do you when you know |
| Tx:13.28 | In shining peace within you is the perfect purity in which you were | created. Fear not to look upon the lovely truth in you. Look through |
| Tx:13.32 | You, Father, for the purity of Your most holy Son, whom You have | created guiltless forever. |
| Tx:13.33 | even unto the worth that God has placed upon you. I love all that He | created, and all my faith and my belief I offer unto it. My faith in |
| Tx:13.34 | of praise unto your Father. See only praise of Him in what He has | created, for He will never cease His praise of you. United in this |
| Tx:13.46 | released, and you will not remember anything you made that was not | created for you and by you in return. For how can you remember what |
| Tx:13.52 | teach you not to deny it. Undoing is indirect, as doing is. You were | created only to create, neither to see nor do. These are but indirect |
| Tx:13.76 | shake God's conviction of the perfect purity of everything that He | created, for it is wholly pure. Do not decide against it, for being |
| Tx:13.79 | Seek not to appraise the worth of God's Son, whom He | created holy, for to do so is to evaluate his Father and judge |
| Tx:13.79 | He could ever let His Son drop from His loving mind wherein he was | created and where his abode was fixed in perfect peace forever. |
| Tx:13.87 | You who belong to the First Cause, | created by Him like unto Himself and part of Him, are more than |
| Tx:13.90 | Decide that God is right and you are wrong about yourself. He | created you out of Himself but still within Him. He knows what you |
| Tx:14.7 | Blessed Son of a wholly blessing Father, joy was | created for you. Who can condemn whom God has blessed? There is |
| Tx:14.7 | the teachers of the innocence that is the right of all that God | created. Deny them not what is their due, for you will not withhold |
| Tx:14.12 | no one is excluded. Within its holy circle is everyone whom God | created as His Son. Joy is its unifying attribute, with no one left |
| Tx:14.13 | purpose to which my teaching calls you. Restore to God His Son as He | created him by teaching him his innocence. |
| Tx:14.26 | about themselves. They have defined themselves as they were not | created. Their creation was not a point of view, but rather a |
| Tx:14.36 | the knowledge given you by God into unknowingness. Everything God | created knows its Creator. For this is how creation is accomplished |
| Tx:14.38 | The Atonement does not make holy. You were | created holy. It merely brings unholiness to holiness, or what you |
| Tx:14.41 | they abide in Life. [Life is as holy as the Holiness by Which it was | created.] The Presence of Holiness lives in everything that lives, |
| Tx:14.41 | Presence of Holiness lives in everything that lives, for Holiness | created life and leaves not what It created holy as Itself. |
| Tx:14.41 | that lives, for Holiness created life and leaves not what It | created holy as Itself. |
| Tx:14.71 | Teach like Him here, and you will remember that you have always | created like your Father. The miracle of creation has never ceased, |
| Tx:15.16 | is so far beyond time that all of it happens at once. For as it was | created one, so its oneness depends not on time at all. |
| Tx:15.55 | Think you that you can judge the Self of God? God has | created it beyond judgment out of His need to extend His Love. With |
| Tx:15.78 | awareness. And here it is that you experience yourself as you were | created and as you are. |
| Tx:15.82 | not from you, He withheld not His creation. Nothing that ever was | created but is yours. Your relationships are with the universe. And |
| Tx:15.84 | is only of God teach you the only meaning of relationships. For God | created the only relationship which has meaning, and that is His |
| Tx:15.109 | Those who receive the Father are one with Him, being host to Him Who | created them. And by allowing Him to enter, the remembrance of the |
| Tx:16.25 | teaching has already done this, for the Holy Spirit is part of you. | Created by God, He left neither God nor His creation. He is both God |
| Tx:16.28 | holy Self, all praise is due for what you are and for what He is Who | created you as you are. Sooner or later must everyone bridge the gap |
| Tx:16.37 | look on all your brothers with gratitude because your creations were | created in union with them. Acceptance of your creations is the |
| Tx:16.41 | the bridge to Him, made from your willingness to unite with Him and | created by His joy in union with you. The journey that seemed to be |
| Tx:16.59 | relationships that are unlike this one must be unnatural. For God | created love as He would have it be and gave it as it is. Love has no |
| Tx:16.77 | is His reminder that His Son will always be exactly as he was | created. And everything the Holy Spirit teaches you is to remind you |
| Tx:16.81 | what you have given and accept but this into the minds which You | created and which You love. Amen. |
| Tx:17.7 | Spirit loves to look upon and which He thanks the Father for. He was | created to see this for you until you learn to see it for yourself. |
| Tx:17.26 | me bring reality to your perception of your brothers. They were not | created to enable you to hurt yourselves through them. They were |
| Tx:17.26 | not created to enable you to hurt yourselves through them. They were | created to create with you. This is the truth that I would interpose |
| Tx:17.27 | you relate to your creations as God to His. For nothing God | created is apart from happiness, and nothing God created but would |
| Tx:17.27 | For nothing God created is apart from happiness, and nothing God | created but would extend happiness as its Creator did. Whatever |
| Tx:17.29 | separation. For although the ego did not understand what had been | created, it was aware of threat. |
| Tx:18.11 | to you. [And God Himself is glad that your relationship is as it was | created.] The universe within you stands with you, together. And |
| Tx:18.37 | to God am worthy of Him. He Who established His dwelling-place in me | created it as He would have it be. It is not needful that I make it |
| Tx:18.49 | realization that the Kingdom of Heaven is restored to you. For God | created only this, and He did not depart from it nor leave it |
| Tx:18.53 | what cannot destroy can have no real effect at all. And what God | created is only what He would have it be, being His Will. You cannot |
| Tx:18.75 | living alone and in no way joined to the Thought by which it was | created. Each tiny fragment seems to be self-contained, needing each |
| Tx:18.76 | separate life because its life is the oneness in which its being was | created. |
| Tx:18.78 | Love knows no bodies and reaches to everything | created like itself. Its total lack of limit is its meaning. It is |
| Tx:19.16 | For what you think you do to the eternal you do to you. Whom God | created as His Son is slave to nothing, being lord of all along with |
| Tx:19.18 | thus succeeded in losing his innocence and making himself what God | created not. Thus is creation seen as not eternal, and the Will of |
| Tx:19.20 | doctrine which replaces the reality of the Son of God as his Father | created him and willed that he be forever. Is this humility? Or is |
| Tx:19.31 | good and evil—partly sane and partially insane. For He must have | created what wills to destroy Him and has the power to do so. Is it |
| Tx:19.32 | seem to be split apart and overthrown. For sin would prove what God | created holy could not prevail against it nor remain itself before |
| Tx:19.80 | and set against the peace of Heaven? One thing is sure—God, Who | created neither sin nor death, wills not that you be bound by them. |
| Tx:19.85 | powerless before the ego's might, unable to protect the life that He | created against the ego's savage wish to kill. My brothers, children |
| Tx:19.103 | to you? For his redemption, he will give you yours as surely as God | created every living thing and loves it. And he will give it truly, |
| Tx:19.108 | offer to the Son of God in thanks for what he is and what his Father | created him to be. |
| Tx:20.27 | Each of you now will lead the other to the Father as surely as God | created His Son holy and kept him so. In your brother is the light of |
| Tx:20.29 | have established other laws and given them power to enforce what God | created not. |
| Tx:20.45 | self-centered, broken into fragments, and full of fear. The one | created by his Father is wholly self-encompassing and self-extending. |
| Tx:21.17 | No accident nor chance is possible within the universe as God | created it, outside of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided sin |
| Tx:21.26 | that you did not create yourself. They are the same mistake. Nothing | created not by your Creator has any influence over you. And if you |
| Tx:21.28 | Yet the truth is you were both | created by a loving Father Who created you together and as one. See |
| Tx:21.28 | Yet the truth is you were both created by a loving Father Who | created you together and as one. See what “proves” otherwise, and you |
| Tx:21.28 | delusion that you are independent of the Source by which you were | created and have never left. |
| Tx:22.28 | to remain in misery? Heaven is the home of perfect purity, and God | created it for you. Look on your holy brother, sinless as yourself, |
| Tx:22.48 | Which is the stronger? Is it this tiny mouse or everything that God | created? You are not joined together by this mouse but by the Will of |
| Tx:23.13 | What you remember is a part of you. For you must be as God | created you. Truth does not fight against illusions, nor do illusions |
| Tx:23.14 | each other. And this occurs whenever you look on anything that God | created with anything but love. Conflict is fearful, for it is the |
| Tx:23.37 | There is no life outside of Heaven. Where God | created life, there life must be. In any state apart from Heaven, |
| Tx:23.53 | not perceived. The body stands between the Father and the Heaven He | created for His Son because it has no purpose. |
| Tx:24.6 | What God | created cannot be attacked, for there is nothing in the universe |
| Tx:24.8 | will not hurt you? Your brother is your friend because his Father | created him like you. There is no difference. You have been given to |
| Tx:24.14 | and Him of Whom they are a part. Nor do they love the Oneness Which | created them as one with Him. They chose their specialness instead of |
| Tx:24.25 | an illusion of what you are to the acceptance of yourself as God | created you. |
| Tx:24.27 | you separate from Him as its defender. You would protect what God | created not. And yet this idol that seems to give you power has taken |
| Tx:24.49 | For in him, his Father waits for your acknowledgment that He | created you as part of Him. |
| Tx:24.51 | Nothing is lost to you in all the universe. Nothing that God | created has He failed to lay before you lovingly as yours forever. |
| Tx:24.51 | in eternity where He abides and you with Him. Your brother is as He | created him. And it is this that saves you from a world that He |
| Tx:24.51 | He created him. And it is this that saves you from a world that He | created not. |
| Tx:24.63 | is within your brother still contains all of creation, everything | created and creating, born and unborn as yet, still in the future or |
| Tx:24.66 | The Father keeps what He | created safe. You cannot touch it with the false ideas you made |
| Tx:24.66 | You cannot touch it with the false ideas you made because it was | created not by you. Let not your foolish fancies frighten you. What |
| Tx:24.68 | with the Father must have a Son. Yet must this Son have been | created like Himself. A perfect being, all-encompassing and |
| Tx:25.16 | it for a while without obscuring it in any way. Yet what God has | created needs no frame, for what He has created He supports and |
| Tx:25.16 | in any way. Yet what God has created needs no frame, for what He has | created He supports and frames within Himself. His masterpiece He |
| Tx:25.21 | Will and yours, who but extend His Will. It was for this you were | created and your brother with you and at one with you. |
| Tx:25.24 | to a world perception rules, for such a world could not have been | created by the Mind to which perception has no meaning. Yet are His |
| Tx:25.26 | the laws of God; not as the law itself upholds the universe as God | created it, but in some form adapted to the need the Son of God |
| Tx:25.36 | of God and of His Son that Heaven be restored to him for whom it was | created as his only home? Nothing before and nothing after it. No |
| Tx:25.42 | himself is God believed to be without the power to save what He | created from the pain of hell. But in the love he shows himself is |
| Tx:25.50 | thinks sin possible. Nor will it change. Yet is it possible what God | created not should share the attributes of His creation when it |
| Tx:25.53 | thought that makes the Son a co-creator with the mind Whose Thought | created him. And if he chooses to believe one thought opposed to |
| Tx:26.17 | that everything that is belongs to Him and will forever be as He | created it. Nothing He loves but must be sinless and beyond attack. |
| Tx:26.17 | Will that you should offer or receive less than He gave when He | created you in perfect love. |
| Tx:26.27 | is Heaven but a song of gratitude and love and praise by everything | created to the Source of its creation? The holiest of altars is set |
| Tx:26.40 | The Son that God | created is as free as God created him. He was reborn the instant that |
| Tx:26.40 | The Son that God created is as free as God | created him. He was reborn the instant that he chose to die instead |
| Tx:26.57 | He wills His Son have everything. And this He guaranteed when He | created him as everything. It is impossible that anything be lost if |
| Tx:26.60 | separate. God wills you learn what always has been true—that He | created you as part of Him, and this must still be true because ideas |
| Tx:26.62 | be forever one, not separate. His Kingdom is united—thus it was | created, and thus will it ever be. |
| Tx:26.65 | as He would have it used is natural. It is not arrogant to be as He | created you or to make use of what He gave to answer all His Son's |
| Tx:26.84 | temple of the Living God rebuilt as host again to Him by Whom it was | created. Where He dwells, His Son dwells with Him, never separate. |
| Tx:28.16 | he is God's Son that he must also be a father who creates as God | created him. The circle of creation has no end. Its starting and its |
| Tx:28.33 | [sin] He cannot bridge, for He cannot destroy the alien will that He | created not. Let its effects be gone and clutch them not with eager |
| Tx:28.51 | What is there God | created to be sick? And what that He created not can be? Let not your |
| Tx:28.51 | What is there God created to be sick? And what that He | created not can be? Let not your eyes behold a dream, your ears bear |
| Tx:29.21 | Think you the Father lost Himself when He | created you? Was He made weak because He shared His love? Was He made |
| Tx:29.21 | truth—no more, perhaps, than just a tiny spark, a space of light | created in the dark, where God still shines. |
| Tx:29.33 | love for you, the soft reminder of his Father's love by which he was | created and which still abides in him, as it abides in you. Be very |
| Tx:29.33 | God's Voice in him and let It tell you what his function is. He was | created that you might be whole, for only the complete can be a part |
| Tx:29.33 | for only the complete can be a part of God's completion, Which | created you. |
| Tx:29.35 | unto his Father's house. Would you not want to be a friend to him, | created by his Father as His home? If God esteems him worthy of |
| Tx:29.56 | what it is. It does not need belief to be itself, for it has been | created, so it is. An idol is established by belief, and when it is |
| Tx:29.61 | it is not a dream. A dream of judgment came into the mind that God | created perfect as Himself. And in that dream was Heaven changed to |
| Tx:30.33 | alone. And Heaven itself but represents your will, where everything | created is for you. No spark of life but was created with your glad |
| Tx:30.33 | will, where everything created is for you. No spark of life but was | created with your glad consent, as you would have it be. And not one |
| Tx:30.35 | joined with God Himself in all creation's birth. Remember He Who has | created you and through your will created everything. Not one created |
| Tx:30.35 | birth. Remember He Who has created you and through your will | created everything. Not one created thing but gives you thanks, for |
| Tx:30.35 | has created you and through your will created everything. Not one | created thing but gives you thanks, for it is by your will that it |
| Tx:30.42 | any form and limited to what is not in him, he would not be as God | created him. What idol can he need to be himself? For can he give a |
| Tx:30.57 | the dream of fear. Instead, there is a wish to understand all things | created as they really are. And it is recognized that all things must |
| Tx:31.9 | is innocent can He be Love. For God were fear indeed if he whom He | created innocent could be a slave to guilt. God's perfect Son |
| Tx:31.64 | not done at all. What could there be within the universe which God | created that must still be done? |
| Tx:31.87 | to veil the truth. [He would remove all misery from you, whom God | created altars unto joy.] He would not leave you comfortless, alone |
| Tx:31.87 | real in you. His strength is yours because He is the Self that God | created as His only Son. |
| Tx:31.90 | I am as God | created me. His Son can suffer nothing. And I am His Son. |
| Tx:31.92 | You are as God | created you, and so is every living thing you look upon, regardless |
| W1:14.1 | create does not exist. And everything that does exist exists as He | created it. The world you see has nothing to do with reality. It is |
| W1:38.2 | in its power to save anyone. If you are holy, so is everything God | created. You are holy because all things He created are holy. And all |
| W1:38.2 | so is everything God created. You are holy because all things He | created are holy. And all things He created are holy because you are. |
| W1:38.2 | are holy because all things He created are holy. And all things He | created are holy because you are. |
| W1:43.1 | not an attribute of God. His is the realm of knowledge. Yet He has | created the Holy Spirit as the Mediator between perception and |
| W1:53.5 | that is real is in His Mind. It is in my mind too because He | created it with me. Why should I continue to suffer from the effects |
| W1:55.2 | but signs of disease, disaster, and death. This cannot be what God | created for His beloved Son. The very fact that I see such things is |
| W1:57.3 | I no longer want. The Son of God must be forever free. He is as God | created him, and not what I would make of him. He is where God would |
| W1:61.1 | with which you have endowed your idols. It refers to you as you were | created by God. It simply states the truth. |
| W1:67.3 | Holiness | created me holy. Kindness created me kind. Helpfulness created me |
| W1:67.3 | Holiness created me holy. Kindness | created me kind. Helpfulness created me helpful. Perfection created |
| W1:67.3 | Holiness created me holy. Kindness created me kind. Helpfulness | created me helpful. Perfection created me perfect. |
| W1:67.3 | Kindness created me kind. Helpfulness created me helpful. Perfection | created me perfect. |
| W1:67.5 | and preconceptions about yourself to the truth in you. If Love | created you like Itself, this Self must be in you. And somewhere in |
| W1:67.6 | awareness of a blazing light in which you recognize yourself as Love | created you. Be confident that you will do much today to bring that |
| W1:67.7 | even more, it would be most beneficial to remind yourself that Love | created you like Itself. Hear the truth about yourself in this. |
| W1:67.8 | about yourself with the simple truth about the Son of God. You were | created by Love like Itself. |
| W1:68.1 | You who were | created by Love like Itself can hold no grievances and know your |
| W1:68.3 | grievances? Oh, yes! For he who holds grievances denies he was | created by Love, and his Creator has become fearful to him in his |
| W1:68.4 | will redefine God in their own image as it is certain that God | created them like Himself and defined them as part of Him. It is as |
| W1:72.15 | that you are asking them of the infinite Creator of infinity, Who | created you like Himself: |
| W1:73.3 | grievances increase with each exchange. Can such a world have been | created by the will the Son of God shares with his Father? Did God |
| W1:76.11 | the endless joy He offers you. About His yearning for His only Son, | created as His channel for creation, denied to Him by his belief in |
| W1:84.2 | [67] Love | created me like Itself. I am in the likeness of my Creator. I cannot |
| W1:84.2 | to replace my Self. I am in the likeness of my Creator. Love | created me like Itself. |
| W1:93.4 | your “sins” are nothing, that you are as pure and holy as you were | created, and that light and joy and peace abide in you? Your image of |
| W1:93.6 | is guaranteed by God. Nothing can touch it nor can change what God | created as eternal. The self you made, evil and full of sin, is |
| W1:93.7 | Salvation requires the acceptance of but one thought—you are as God | created you, not what you made of yourself. Whatever evil you may |
| W1:93.7 | of yourself. Whatever evil you may think you did, you are as God | created you. Whatever mistakes you made, the truth about you is |
| W1:93.7 | guaranteed by God. You are and will forever be exactly as you were | created. Light and joy and peace abide in you because God put them |
| W1:93.11 | You are what God | created or what you made. One Self is true; the other is not there. |
| W1:93.11 | Self. Try to appreciate its holiness and the love from which it was | created. Try not to interfere with the Self which God created as you |
| W1:93.11 | which it was created. Try not to interfere with the Self which God | created as you by hiding its majesty behind the tiny idols of evil |
| W1:94.1 | which renders the ego silent and entirely undone. You are as God | created you. The sounds of this world are still, the sights of this |
| W1:94.2 | light is strength, and strength is sinlessness. If you remain as God | created you, you must be strong and light must be in you. He Who |
| W1:94.2 | must be the guarantee of strength and light as well. You are as God | created you. Darkness cannot obscure the glory of the Son of God. You |
| W1:94.2 | God. You stand in light, strong in the sinlessness in which you were | created and in which you will remain throughout eternity. |
| W1:94.4 | I am as God | created me. I am His Son eternally. |
| W1:94.8 | I am as God | created me. I am His Son eternally. |
| W1:94.9 | Tell yourself frequently today that you are as God | created you. And be sure to respond to anyone who seems to irritate |
| W1:94.10 | You are as God | created you. You are His Son eternally. |
| W1:95.1 | Today's idea accurately describes you as God | created you. You are one within yourself and one with Him. Yours is |
| W1:96.15 | it will again flow out from Spirit to the Spirit in all things | created by the Spirit as Itself. Your mind will bless all things. |
| W1:99.6 | saves and which forgives, because it lays no faith in what is not | created by the only Source it knows. This is the thought whose |
| W1:102.7 | You have no need to be less loving to God's Son than He Whose Love | created him as loving as Himself. Besides these hourly five minute |
| W1:107.10 | go with Him. You are not made of flesh and blood and bone but were | created by the self-same thought which gave the gift of life to Him |
| W1:110.1 | which have reality, nor changed the universe so that what God | created was replaced by fear and evil, misery and death. |
| W1:110.2 | If you remain as God | created you, fear has no meaning, evil is not real, and misery and |
| W1:110.3 | If you remain as God | created you, appearances cannot replace the truth, health cannot turn |
| W1:110.3 | or fear for love. All this has not occurred if you remain as God | created you. You need no thought but just this one to let redemption |
| W1:110.4 | saved to quietly extend into a timeless future. If you are as God | created you, then there has been no separation of your mind from His, |
| W1:110.7 | I am as God | created me. His Son can suffer nothing. And I am His Son. |
| W1:110.9 | You are as God | created you. Today honor your Self. Let graven images you made to be |
| W1:110.12 | I am as God | created me. |
| W1:112.3 | [94] I am as God | created me. I will remain forever as I was, Created by the Changeless |
| W1:112.3 | [94] I am as God created me. I will remain forever as I was, | Created by the Changeless like Himself. And I am one with Him, and He |
| W1:112.7 | I am as God | created me. |
| W1:114.2 | God. No body can contain my spirit nor impose on me a limitation God | created not. |
| W1:114.3 | What can my function be but to accept the Word of God, Who has | created me, for what I am and will forever be? |
| W1:120.3 | [110] I am as God | created me. I am God's Son. Today I lay aside all sick illusions of |
| W1:120.7 | I am as God | created me. |
| W1:124.3 | a while. And God, Who loves us with the equal love in which we were | created, smiles on us and offers us the happiness we gave. Today we |
| W1:124.5 | are restored to the tranquility and peace of mind in which they were | created. And we see it in the dying and the dead as well, restoring |
| W1:125.4 | within the mind where He abides forever in the holiness which He | created and will never leave. |
| W1:131.6 | want it. You will reach the goal you really want as certainly as God | created you in sinlessness. |
| W1:132.10 | for it contains the firm foundation for today's idea. You are as God | created you. There is no place where you can suffer and no time that |
| W1:132.10 | state. How can a world of time and place exist if you remain as God | created you? |
| W1:132.12 | Yet if you are as God | created you, you cannot think apart from Him nor make what does not |
| W1:132.12 | the world in every way. And as it was His thought by which you were | created, so it is your thoughts which made it and must set it free |
| W1:132.15 | the home our Father set for us along with them. And we who are as He | created us would loose the world this day from every one of our |
| W1:132.17 | I who remain as God | created me would loose the world from all I thought it was. For I am |
| W1:136.12 | you die or suffer sickness or distort the truth in any way. What is | created is apart from all of this. Defenses are plans to defeat what |
| W1:136.14 | against the truth. Yet what God wills is here, and you remain as He | created you. |
| W1:139.1 | of choice. For here we come to a decision to accept ourselves as God | created us. And what is choice except uncertainty of what we are? |
| W1:139.11 | I will accept Atonement for myself, for I remain as God | created me. |
| W1:139.12 | We have not lost the knowledge that God gave to us when He | created us like Him. We can remember it for everyone, for in creation |
| W1:139.14 | I will accept Atonement for myself, for I remain as God | created me. |
| W1:151.9 | bears witness to your beautiful creation and the Mind Whose thought | created your reality. What can the body mean to Him Who knows the |
| W1:152.5 | As God | created you, you must remain unchangeable with transitory states by |
| W1:152.7 | see at once these things are not of Him. And can you see what God | created not? To think you can is merely to believe you can perceive |
| W1:152.10 | are. And we lift our hearts in true humility instead to Him Who has | created us immaculate, like to Himself in power and in love. The |
| W1:152.13 | is my own. This day I will accept myself as what my Father's Will | created me to be. |
| W1:153.9 | dreams today and recognize that we need no defense because we are | created unassailable, without all thought or wish or dream in which |
| W1:154.4 | salvation from all sin, with guilt abolished in the mind that God | created sinless. Now this mind becomes aware again of Who created it |
| W1:154.4 | that God created sinless. Now this mind becomes aware again of Who | created it and of His lasting union with itself. So is its Self the |
| W1:156.9 | I light the world, I light my mind and all the minds which God | created one with me. |
| W1:158.1 | and purely mind, sinless forever, wholly unafraid because you were | created out of Love. Nor have you left your Source, remaining as you |
| W1:158.1 | out of Love. Nor have you left your Source, remaining as you were | created. This was given you as knowledge which you cannot lose. It |
| W1:158.7 | It does not look upon a body and mistake it for the Son whom God | created. It beholds a light beyond the body, an idea beyond what can |
| W1:159.3 | pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so like to Heaven that what God | created perfect can be mirrored there. The darkened glass the world |
| W1:160.4 | to the home which God provided for His Son? Is fear His own, | created in His likeness? Is it fear that love completes and is |
| W1:161.9 | eyes behold in one whom Heaven cherishes, the angels love, and God | created perfect. This is his reality. And in Christ's vision is his |
| W1:162.6 | eager to unite with one like him in holiness? You are as God | created you. These words dispel the night, and darkness is no more. |
| W1:165.2 | The Thought of God | created you. It left you not, nor have you ever been apart from It an |
| W1:167.1 | does not have degrees. It is the one condition in which all that God | created share. Like all His thoughts, it has no opposite. There is no |
| W1:167.1 | His thoughts, it has no opposite. There is no death because what God | created shares His Life. There is no death because an opposite to God |
| W1:167.7 | be another form of life. As such, it can be reconciled with what | created it because it is not opposite in truth. Its form may change; |
| W1:167.7 | mind is mind, awake or sleeping. It is not its opposite in anything | created nor in what it seems to make when it believes it sleeps. |
| W1:167.11 | with Him, with all creation, with their thoughts as well, whom He | created in a unity of life that cannot separate in death and leave |
| W1:167.12 | perfection comes to us, remaining always in the holy minds which He | created perfect. As we were, so are we now and will forever be. A |
| W1:176.3 | [162] I am as God | created me. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:185.12 | For you it was | created, given you by its Creator and established as His own eternal |
| W1:185.14 | that hate has sought to sever, but which still remains as God | created it. With help like this beside us, can we fail today as we |
| W1:189.10 | we think apart from You and cherish no beliefs of what we are or who | created us. Yours is the way that we would find and follow. And we |
| W1:190.2 | abandonment by an eternal Love which could not leave the Son whom It | created out of love. |
| W1:191.4 | a game you play in which identity can be denied? You are as God | created you. All else but this one thing is folly to believe. In this |
| W1:192.1 | that your Self shall be His sacred Son, forever pure as He, of love | created and in love preserved, extending love, creating in its name, |
| W1:192.3 | to earth. For being Heaven-borne, it has no form at all. Yet God | created One Who has the power to translate into form the wholly |
| W1:192.10 | him, that you may accept him back as your Identity. He is as God | created him. And you are what he is. Forgive him now his sins, and |
| W1:193.3 | Love be given form in which it could be offered to the world. And He | created One Who could perceive what form this law should take, to be |
| W1:193.4 | The One Whom God | created to replace the foolish thoughts which crept into the mind of |
| W1:197.7 | secure because Their will is one. Their gratitude to all They have | created has no end, for gratitude remains a part of love. |
| W1:197.8 | Thanks be to you, the holy Son of God, for as you were | created you contain all things within your Self. And you are still as |
| W1:197.8 | you contain all things within your Self. And you are still as God | created you. Nor can you dim the light of your perfection. In your |
| W1:200.7 | to find in such a world? It cannot have reality because it never was | created. Is it here that he would seek for peace? Or must he see |
| W1:R6.4 | I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:200.1 | one with me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:202.1 | to call me home? I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:203.1 | as well as His. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:204.1 | one with Him. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:205.1 | I am not at home. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:206.1 | them to be. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:207.1 | Love for me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:208.1 | to God Himself. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:209.1 | [189] I feel the Love of God within me now. The Love of God is what | created me. The Love of God is everything I am. The Love of God |
| W1:209.1 | me sets me free. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:210.1 | of what I made. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:211.1 | in true humility, I seek God's glory to behold it in the Son whom He | created as my Self. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W1:211.1 | as my Self. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:212.1 | I accept as mine. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:213.1 | and forget my own. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:214.1 | belongs to me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:215.1 | me the way to go. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:216.1 | will be given me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:217.1 | my thanks are due? I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:218.1 | glory and be glad. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:219.1 | as His Son. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W1:220.1 | the Love of God. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God | created me. |
| W2:I.7 | with You in asking this. The Father and the Son, Whose holy will | created all that is, can fail in nothing. In this certainty, we |
| W2:I.9 | We had a wish that God would fail to have the Son whom He | created for Himself. We wanted God to change Himself and be what we |
| W2:229.1 | I seek my own Identity and find it in these words: “Love, Which | created me, is what I am.” Now need I seek no more. Love has |
| W2:230.1 | In peace I was | created. And in peace do I remain. It is not given me to change my |
| W2:230.1 | me to change my Self. How merciful is God my Father, that when He | created me He gave me peace forever. Now I ask but to be what I am. |
| W2:230.2 | Son was born into Your Mind is shining there unchanged. I am as You | created me. I need but call on You to find the peace You gave. It is |
| W2:235.2 | Father, Your holiness is mine. Your Love | created me and made my sinlessness forever part of You. I have no |
| W2:238.1 | Father, Your trust in me has been so great I must be worthy. You | created me and know me as I am. And yet You placed Your Son's |
| W2:238.2 | pause to think how much our Father loves us. And how dear His Son, | created by His Love, remains to Him Whose Love is made complete in |
| W2:239.1 | His Son forever and with perfect constancy, knowing he is as He | created him? |
| W2:243.1 | Thus do I free myself and what I look upon, to be in peace as God | created us. |
| W2:247.2 | I look on everyone today. My brothers are Your Sons. Your Fatherhood | created them and gave them all to me as part of You and my own Self |
| W2:248.1 | about the holy Son of God. Now am I ready to accept him back as God | created him, and as he is. |
| W2:248.2 | returns and lets me love Your Son again as well. Father, I am as You | created me. Now is Your Love remembered and my own. Now do I |
| W2:249.2 | of violence and death. Now would we rest again in You, as You | created us. |
| W2:253.1 | Will, in Heaven where my holy Self abides with them and Him Who has | created me. |
| W2:253.2 | You are the Self Whom You | created Son, creating like Yourself and one with You. My Self, Which |
| W2:256.1 | asleep in heavy clouds of doubt about the holiness of him whom God | created sinless? Here we can but dream. But we can dream we have |
| W2:260.1 | as Your thought, I have not left my Source, remaining part of What | created me. Your Son, my Father, calls on You today. Let me remember |
| W2:260.1 | me. Your Son, my Father, calls on You today. Let me remember You | created me. Let me remember my Identity. And let my sinlessness arise |
| W2:261.2 | I would come, my Father, home to You today. I choose to be as You | created me and find the Son whom You created as my Self. |
| W2:261.2 | today. I choose to be as You created me and find the Son whom You | created as my Self. |
| W2:262.1 | when only one suffices? For Your Son must bear Your Name, for You | created him. Let me not see him as a stranger to his Father, nor as |
| W2:263.1 | Father, Your Mind | created all that is; Your Spirit entered into it; Your Love gave life |
| W2:263.1 | into it; Your Love gave life to it. And would I look upon what You | created as if it could be made sinful? I would not perceive such dark |
| W2:267.1 | Surrounding me is all the life that God | created in His Love. It calls to me in every heartbeat and in every |
| W2:267.2 | my own. Father, my heart is beating in the peace the Heart of Love | created. It is there and only there that I can be at home. |
| W2:268.1 | to withdraw my wishes from its unity and thus to let it be as You | created it. For thus will I be able, too, to recognize my Self as You |
| W2:268.1 | it. For thus will I be able, too, to recognize my Self as You | created me. In Love was I created, and in Love will I remain forever. |
| W2:268.1 | be able, too, to recognize my Self as You created me. In Love was I | created, and in Love will I remain forever. What can frighten me when |
| W2:270.2 | we offer healing to the world through Him, the holy Son whom God | created whole, the holy Son whom God created one. |
| W2:270.2 | Him, the holy Son whom God created whole, the holy Son whom God | created one. |
| W2:WIC.1 | Christ is God's Son as He | created Him. He is the Self we share, uniting us with one another and |
| W2:WIC.1 | He has not left His holy home nor lost the innocence in which He was | created. He abides unchanged forever in the Mind of God. |
| W2:WIC.5 | or of time, or anything except the holy Self, the Christ Whom God | created as His Son. |
| W2:272.1 | still, forever gentle, and forever safe. God's Son must be as You | created him. |
| W2:274.1 | Father, today I would let all things be as You | created them and give Your Son the honor due his sinlessness, the |
| W2:274.1 | light will replace all darkness, and Your Son will know he is as You | created him. |
| W2:276.1 | thus did God become the Father of the Son He loves, for thus was he | created. This the Word His Son did not create with Him because in |
| W2:276.1 | Let us accept His Fatherhood, and all is given us. Deny we were | created in His Love, and we deny our Self, to be unsure of who we |
| W2:277.1 | is changeable. He is not slave to any laws of time. He is as You | created him, because he knows no laws except the Law of Love. |
| W2:279.2 | today and give my faith to them. My Father loves the Son Whom He | created as His own. Would You withhold the gifts You gave to me? |
| W2:280.1 | Whom God | created limitless is free. I can invent imprisonment for him, but |
| W2:280.2 | the way to You. Father, I lay no limits on the Son You love and You | created limitless. The honor that I give to him is Yours, and what is |
| W2:281.1 | way, it is because he has forgotten who he is, and that he is as You | created him. Your Thoughts can only bring me happiness. If ever I am |
| W2:282.1 | insane and to accept myself as God Himself, my Father and my Source, | created me. This the determination not to be asleep in dreams of |
| W2:282.1 | the joy of life. And this the choice to recognize the Self Whom God | created as the Son He loves and Who remains my one Reality. |
| W2:283.1 | light of Heaven infinite? Is not Your Son my true Identity, when You | created everything that is? |
| W2:283.2 | Identity, with God our Father as our only Source and everything | created part of us. And so we offer blessing to all things, uniting |
| W2:285.2 | through forgiveness be restored to sanity. Your Son is still as You | created him. My holiness is part of me and also part of You. And what |
| W2:287.2 | for the truth? You are my only goal. Your Son would be as You | created him. What way but this could I expect to recognize my Self |
| W2:288.1 | my brother. And to know my Source, I first must recognize what You | created one with me. My brother's is the hand that leads me on the |
| W2:294.2 | My body, Father, cannot be Your Son. And what is not | created cannot be sinful or sinless, neither good nor bad. Let me, |
| W2:299.1 | beyond my own ability to understand or know. Yet God my Father, Who | created it, acknowledges my holiness as His. Our will together |
| W2:299.2 | and untouched. In it are all things healed, for they remain as You | created them. And I can know my holiness. For Holiness Itself created |
| W2:299.2 | as You created them. And I can know my holiness. For Holiness Itself | created me, and I can know my Source because it is Your will that You |
| W2:302.1 | can see. We thought we suffered. But we had forgot the Son whom You | created. Now we see that darkness is our own imagining and light is |
| W2:303.2 | truth. He is the Son You love above all things. He is my Self as You | created me. It is not Christ that can be crucified. Safe in Your |
| W2:304.2 | Son that he may find again the memory of You and of Your Son as You | created him. |
| W2:307.1 | in will, and nothing contradicts the holy truth that I remain as You | created me. |
| W2:309.1 | Will is to deny my own. To look within is but to find my will as God | created it and as it is. I fear to look within because I think I made |
| W2:311.2 | and we cannot judge. And so we let Your Love decide what he whom You | created as Your Son must be. |
| W2:318.1 | purpose is to find the sinlessness which God has placed in me. I was | created as the thing I seek. I am the goal the world is searching |
| W2:WICR.1 | creates and only like Itself. There was no time when all that It | created was not there. Nor will there be a time when anything that It |
| W2:WICR.1 | was not there. Nor will there be a time when anything that It | created suffers any change. Forever and forever are God's thoughts |
| W2:WICR.4 | done on earth, only to be restored to sanity, and to be but as God | created us. |
| W2:322.2 | inconceivable. And so I cannot sacrifice except in dreams. As You | created me, I can give up nothing You gave me. What You did not give |
| W2:326.1 | Father, I was | created in Your Mind, a holy thought that never left its home. I am |
| W2:326.1 | Your Effect, and You forever and forever are my Cause. As You | created me, I have remained. Where You established me, I still abide, |
| W2:330.1 | joy, as is the Will of God united with its own. The Self which God | created cannot sin and therefore cannot suffer. Let us choose today |
| W2:WIE.5 | And peace will be restored forever to the holy minds which God | created as His Son, His dwelling-place, His joy, His love, completely |
| W2:335.2 | to see my brother's sinlessness? His holiness reminds me that he was | created one with me and like myself. In him I find my Self, and in |
| W2:337.1 | do nothing of myself, for I need but accept my Self, my sinlessness, | created for me, now already mine, to feel God's Love protecting me |
| W2:337.2 | You who | created me in sinlessness are not mistaken about what I am. I was |
| W2:343.1 | can but be gain. You only give. You never take away. And You | created me to be like You, so sacrifice becomes impossible for me as |
| W2:343.1 | and so all things are given unto me forever and forever. As I was | created, I remain. Your Son can make no sacrifice, for he must be |
| W2:346.1 | laws except Your law of Love. And I would find the peace which You | created for Your Son, forgetting all the foolish toys I made as I |
| W2:348.1 | me? Surrounding me is perfect sinlessness. What can I fear when You | created me in holiness as perfect as Your own? |
| W2:350.1 | The Son of God incorporates all things within himself as You | created him. Your memory depends on his forgiveness. What he is, is |
| W2:354.1 | with You as well as Him. For who is Christ except Your Son as You | created Him? And what am I except the Christ in me? |
| W2:359.1 | But we have not made sinners of the holy Sons of God. What You | created sinless so abides forever and forever. Such are we. And we |
| W2:360.1 | would give, receiving it of You. I am Your Son, forever just as You | created me, for the Great Rays remain forever still and undisturbed |
| W2:360.1 | Peace be to me and peace to all the world. In holiness were we | created, and in holiness do we remain. Your Son is like to You in |
| M:4.17 | try to make themselves. Their joy comes from their understanding Who | created them. And does what God created need defense? No one can |
| M:4.17 | comes from their understanding Who created them. And does what God | created need defense? No one can become an advanced teacher of God |
| M:5.10 | they remind him that he has not made himself and must remain as God | created him. They recognize illusions can have no effect. The truth |
| M:12.1 | to still deluded minds. He is forever One, because He is as God | created Him. He has accepted Christ, and He is saved. |
| M:18.2 | the one unchanged, unchangeable condition of all that God | created. Now He can speak the Word of God to listening ears and bring |
| M:20.5 | Forgive the world, and you will understand that everything which God | created cannot have an end, and nothing He did not create is real. In |
| M:22.4 | has no special reference. It is true of all things that God | created. In it are all illusions healed. |
| M:22.7 | he withdraws his judgment from the Son of God, accepting him as God | created him. No longer does he stand apart from God, determining |
| M:22.7 | be withheld. Now can he say with God, “This is my beloved Son, | created perfect and forever so.” |
| M:23.2 | because he has accepted life. He has recognized himself as God | created him, and in so doing he has recognized all living things as |
| M:27.2 | In this perception of the universe as God | created it, it would not be possible to think of Him as loving. For |
| M:27.5 | is firmly rooted in the belief that God's Son is a body. And if God | created bodies, death would indeed be real. But God would not be |
| M:27.6 | mindless magic, ineffectual and meaningless. God is, and in Him all | created things must be eternal. Do you not see that otherwise He has |
| M:28.5 | us free indeed, and we accept His holiness as ours, as it is. As God | created us, so will we be forever and forever, and we wish for |
| M:29.4 | is to gain all power. And yet it is but a seeming paradox. As God | created you, you have all power. The image you made of yourself has |
| M:29.7 | danger and selected “wrongs.” God knows but His Son, and as he was | created, so he is. In confidence I place you in His hands, and I give |

| Tx:15.102 | Love must be total to give Him welcome, for the Presence of Holiness | creates the holiness which surrounds it. No fear can touch the host |

| Tx:7.92 | His power, because it is part of Him and shares His Being with Him. | Creating is the opposite of loss, as blessing is the opposite of |
| Tx:8.14 | and it encompasses all things because it created all things. By | creating all things, it made them part of itself. You are the Will of |
| Tx:8.47 | Your function is to add to God's treasure by | creating yours. His Will to you is His Will for you. He would not |

| Tx:9.101 | own mind because of the power He gave it. Your mind is capable of | creating worlds, but it can also deny what it creates because it is |
| Tx:10.10 | can only be increased, and everything He creates has the function of | creating. Love does not limit, and what it creates is not limited. To |
| Tx:12.23 | function in this world is healing, and your function in Heaven is | creating. The ego teaches that your function on earth is destruction |
| Tx:13.66 | pain which only guiltlessness allays. Learning is living here, as | creating is being in Heaven. Whenever the pain of guilt seems to |
| Tx:17.27 | ascribed to anything is its only function. Because of His reason for | creating His relationship with you, the function of relationships |
| Tx:18.98 | memory will be as useless as learning, for your only purpose will be | creating. Yet this you cannot know until every perception has been |
| Tx:21.27 | The Son's creations are like his Father's. Yet in | creating them, the Son does not delude himself that he is independent |
| Tx:21.27 | is independent of his Source. His union with It is the Source of his | creating. Apart from this he has no power to create, and what he |
| Tx:23.49 | and the Son are murderers or neither is. Life makes not death, | creating like itself. |
| Tx:24.63 | your brother still contains all of creation, everything created and | creating, born and unborn as yet, still in the future or apparently |
| Tx:26.25 | needing it no more. And thus is he returned to his real function of | creating, which his forgiveness offers him again. |
| Tx:28.18 | with separate minds, are your “creations,” you the “other” mind, | creating with effects unlike yourself. And as their “father,” you |
| W1:183.9 | of reality. And you acknowledge also that His Son is part of Him, | creating in His Name. Sit silently, and let His Name become the |
| W1:192.1 | pure as He, of love created and in love preserved, extending love, | creating in its name, forever one with God and with your Self. Yet |
| W2:253.2 | You are the Self Whom You created Son, | creating like Yourself and one with You. My Self, Which rules the |
creation (310) | ||
| Tx:1.37 | and His Souls, involving an extremely personal sense of closeness to | creation which man tries to find in physical relationships. Physical |
| Tx:1.60 | God would be mocked if any of His creations lacked holiness. The | creation is whole, and the mark of wholeness is holiness. |
| Tx:1.69 | becomes a medium by which the Soul creates along the line of its own | creation. If it does not freely elect to do so, it retains its |
| Tx:1.89 | that he needs it. While the concept of lack does not exist in the | creation of God, it is very apparent in the creations of man. It is, |
| Tx:1.93 | perfect faith in His creations because He created them. Belief in a | creation produces its existence. That is why a man can believe in |
| Tx:1.97 | in by its maker, it does not exist at all at the level of true | creation. |
| Tx:1.98 | 53. The miracle compares what man has made with the higher level | creation, accepting what is in accord as true and rejecting the |
| Tx:1.105 | unnecessary. Learning to do this is the only real reason for its | creation. |
| Tx:2.5 | is a fundamental attribute of God which He gave to His Son. In the | creation, God projected His creative ability from Himself to the |
| Tx:2.10 | the idea that since man can create himself, the direction of his own | creation is up to him is implied. |
| Tx:2.12 | in the original connotation of the term, included both the proper | creation of man by God and the proper creation by man in his right |
| Tx:2.12 | term, included both the proper creation of man by God and the proper | creation by man in his right mind. The latter required the endowment |
| Tx:2.12 | the endowment of man by God with free will because all loving | creation is freely given. Nothing in these statements implies any |
| Tx:2.12 | level involvement or in fact anything except one continuous line of | creation in which all aspects are of the same order. |
| Tx:2.20 | and the Souls He created are completely dependent on each other. The | creation of the Soul has already been perfectly accomplished, but the |
| Tx:2.20 | of the Soul has already been perfectly accomplished, but the | creation by Souls has not. God created Souls so He could depend on |
| Tx:2.40 | closer accord with the Sonship, but the Sonship itself is a perfect | creation, and perfection is not a matter of degree. Only while there |
| Tx:2.47 | is not true. Everything is limited in some way by the manner of its | creation. Free will can temporize and is capable of enormous |
| Tx:2.54 | mind. If it is understood that the mind, which is the only level of | creation, cannot create beyond itself, neither type of confusion need |
| Tx:2.75 | except at the mind level. Correction belongs only at the level where | creation is possible. The term does not mean anything at the symptom |
| Tx:2.87 | the Atonement was offered. The need for the remedy inspired its | creation. As long as you recognize only the need for the remedy, you |
| Tx:2.95 | The vulnerable are essentially miscreators because they misperceive | creation. |
| Tx:2.97 | The fundamental opponents in the real basic conflict are | creation and miscreation. All fear is implicit in the second, just as |
| Tx:2.100 | a concept of intervals which do not really exist. The faulty use of | creation made this necessary as a corrective device. “And God so |
| Tx:2.105 | him by his own Creator, Who was expressing the same will in His | creation. Since creative ability rests in the mind, everything that |
| Tx:2.111 | judgment cannot be directed toward himself because he is not his own | creation. He can, however, apply it meaningfully and at any time to |
| Tx:3.37 | “Know God and accept His certainty.” There are no strangers in His | creation. To create as He created, you can create only what you know |
| Tx:3.42 | not create himself. He can never make his misperceptions valid. His | creation is beyond his own error, and that is why he must eventually |
| Tx:3.46 | interpretive function of perception, actually a distorted form of | creation, then permitted man to interpret the body as himself, which, |
| Tx:3.53 | The confusion between your own | creation and what you create is so profound that it has become |
| Tx:3.53 | behavior is unstable they are disagreeing with God's idea of the | creation. Man can do this if he chooses, but he would hardly want to |
| Tx:3.56 | He has lost the knowledge that he himself is a miracle. Miraculous | creation was his Source and also his real function. |
| Tx:3.67 | being uncertain of their true Authorship, men believe that their | creation was anonymous. This has left them in a position where it |
| Tx:3.77 | bring it to light. You still believe you are images of your own | creation. Your minds are split with your Souls on this point, and |
| Tx:3.79 | Your | creation by God is the only foundation which cannot be shaken because |
| Tx:4.8 | Man's self and God's Self are in opposition. They are opposed in | creation, in will, and in outcome. They are fundamentally |
| Tx:4.9 | how their thought system[s] arose. When I remind you of your true | creation, your egos cannot but respond with fear. |
| Tx:4.19 | only of Him. Nothing else is sufficiently worthy to be a gift for a | creation of God Himself. |
| Tx:4.65 | that this and only this must be. His Mind shone on you in your | creation and brought your mind into being. His Mind still shines on |
| Tx:4.66 | The first coming of Christ is just another name for the | creation, for Christ is the Son of God. The second coming of Christ |
| Tx:4.96 | It is in complete and direct communication with every aspect of | creation because it is in complete and direct communication with its |
| Tx:4.97 | This communication is the Will of God. | Creation and communication are synonymous. God created every mind by |
| Tx:4.99 | you. Divine Abstraction takes joy in application, and that is what | creation means. “How,” “what,” and “to whom” are irrelevant because |
| Tx:4.99 | means. “How,” “what,” and “to whom” are irrelevant because real | creation gives everything, since it can create only like itself. |
| Tx:4.100 | which to judge such offerings. But unless you take your part in the | creation, His joy is not complete because yours is incomplete. And |
| Tx:5.16 | and leads the mind beyond its own integration into the paths of | creation. |
| Tx:5.27 | by giving and is therefore the one act of mind that resembles true | creation. You understand the role of “models” in the learning process |
| Tx:5.47 | good is lost because it comes from the Holy Spirit, the Voice for | creation. Nothing that is not good was ever created and therefore |
| Tx:5.57 | the idea of healing, they must give it to hold it. The full power of | creation cannot be expressed as long as any of God's ideas withhold |
| Tx:5.59 | Spirit, the blessed residue is restored and therefore continues in | creation. |
| Tx:5.70 | Your mind does create your future, and it can turn it back to full | creation at any minute if it accepts the Atonement first. It will |
| Tx:5.70 | if it accepts the Atonement first. It will also turn back to full | creation the instant it has done so. Having given up its thought |
| Tx:5.89 | are in the same position. You were eternally fixated on God in your | creation, and the pull of this fixation is so strong that you will |
| Tx:6.25 | except by a whole mind which recognizes the wholeness of God's | creation and by this recognition knows its Creator. Exclusion and |
| Tx:6.51 | The time that was spent on questioning in the dream has given way to | creation and to its eternity. |
| Tx:6.88 | will finally liberate your will from choice and direct it towards | creation within the Kingdom. Choosing through the Holy Spirit will |
| Tx:6.91 | why you must be vigilant on God's behalf. The ego speaks against His | creation and therefore does engender doubt. You cannot go beyond |
| Tx:6.95 | It is in the perfect safety of God. Therefore inclusion is total and | creation is without limit. |
| Tx:7.1 | because you share it, you are inspired to create like God. Yet in | creation you are not in reciprocal relation to God, since He created |
| Tx:7.2 | the Kingdom could not increase through its own creative thought. | Creation would therefore be limited, and you would not be co-creators |
| Tx:7.5 | Kingdom forever and beyond limit. Eternity is the indelible stamp of | creation. The eternal are in peace and joy forever. |
| Tx:7.10 | the Kingdom and restores its wholeness in your minds. This parallels | creation, because it unifies by increasing and integrates by |
| Tx:7.14 | are. That form of the law is not adapted at all, being the law of | creation. God Himself created the law by creating by it. And His |
| Tx:7.14 | that the increase of the Kingdom depends on it, just as their own | creation did. |
| Tx:7.16 | is always the same, and only the meaning matters. God's law of | Creation in perfect form does not involve the use of truth to |
| Tx:7.34 | inspires can have no order of difficulty, because every part of | creation is of one order. This is God's Will and yours. The laws of |
| Tx:7.53 | can appreciate the Sonship only as one. This is part of the Law of | Creation and therefore governs all thought. |
| Tx:7.65 | you and will therefore obscure God to you. Unless you perceive His | creation truly, you cannot know the Creator, since God and His |
| Tx:7.65 | His creation truly, you cannot know the Creator, since God and His | creation are not separate. The Oneness of the Creator and the |
| Tx:7.65 | His creation are not separate. The Oneness of the Creator and the | creation is your wholeness, your sanity, and your limitless power. |
| Tx:7.66 | Perceived without your part in it, God's | creation is perceived as weak, and those who see themselves as |
| Tx:7.69 | Creation, not separation, is your will because it is God's, and | |
| Tx:7.81 | all of it. This correction enables you to perceive any part of | creation as wholly real, wholly perfect, and wholly desirable. |
| Tx:7.95 | the non-extension of truth, which blocks joy because it blocks | creation and thus blocks self-fulfillment. The unfulfilled must be |
| Tx:7.95 | them. The creations of every Son of God are yours since every | creation belongs to everyone, being created for the Sonship as a |
| Tx:7.113 | like the Father. Know then the Sons of God, and you will know all | creation. |
| Tx:8.18 | their unity together by extending their joint will. This is perfect | creation by the perfectly created in union with Perfect Creator. The |
| Tx:8.34 | being an acknowledgment of what they are and what He is. Freedom is | creation, because it is love. What you seek to imprison you do not |
| Tx:8.37 | the recognition of yourself. There is no separation of God and His | creation. You will learn this as you learn that there is no |
| Tx:8.45 | are your gift to the Holy Trinity, created in gratitude for your | creation. They do not leave you, any more than you have left your |
| Tx:8.45 | you, any more than you have left your Creator, but they extend your | creation as God extended Himself to you. Can the creations of God |
| Tx:8.45 | creations love you as your Soul loves your Father for the gift of | creation. There is no other gift which is eternal, and therefore |
| Tx:8.47 | yours. His Will to you is His Will for you. He would not withhold | creation from you, because His joy is in it. You cannot find joy |
| Tx:8.47 | it, and no one can know his function unless he knows who he is. | Creation is the Will of God. His Will created you to create. Your |
| Tx:8.68 | arrest your thought in this world, and you will open your mind to | creation in God. |
| Tx:8.94 | in alien tongues. You and your Creator can communicate through | creation because that, and only that, is your joint will. |
| Tx:8.101 | The energy which you withdraw from | creation you expend on fear. This is not because your energy is |
| Tx:8.101 | in order to be happy is totally at variance with the principle of | creation. God could not will that happiness depended on what you |
| Tx:9.34 | you do not see. Because the Sonship must create as one, you remember | creation whenever you recognize part of creation. Each part you |
| Tx:9.34 | create as one, you remember creation whenever you recognize part of | creation. Each part you remember adds to your wholeness, because each |
| Tx:9.60 | ephemeral, and how can the ephemeral be real if you are God's only | creation, and He created you eternal? Your holy will establishes |
| Tx:9.64 | But remember that it is as impossible for God. The law of | creation is that you love your creations as yourself because they are |
| Tx:9.69 | lack of fear. In this decision lie joy and peace and the glory of | creation. Offer the Holy Spirit only your will to remember, for He |
| Tx:9.77 | created love, not idolatry. All forms of idolatry are caricatures of | creation, taught by sick minds which are too divided to know that |
| Tx:9.77 | of creation, taught by sick minds which are too divided to know that | creation shares power and never usurps it. Sickness is idolatry, |
| Tx:9.88 | them does not exist. “Laws of chaos” are meaningless by definition. | Creation is perfectly lawful, and the chaotic is without meaning |
| Tx:9.89 | created through His laws and by His Will, and the manner of your | creation established you as creators. What you have made is so |
| Tx:9.92 | as pure as the great light, because it is the remaining call of | creation. Put all your faith in it, and God Himself will answer you. |
| Tx:9.97 | any more than He could have created a Son who was unlike Him. If | creation is sharing, it cannot create what is unlike itself. It can |
| Tx:9.100 | for it means that you are looking without love on God and His | creation, from which He cannot be separated. Only the eternal can be |
| Tx:9.102 | will never cease to love Him. That was the condition of His Son's | creation, fixed forever in the Mind of God. To know that is sanity. |
| Tx:9.102 | is sanity. To deny it is insanity. God gave Himself to you in your | creation, and His gifts are eternal. Would you deny yourself to Him? |
| Tx:9.104 | the many other forms which blasphemy may take are refusals to accept | creation as it is. If God created His Son perfect, that is how you |
| Tx:10.1 | by your vacillations. Nothing alive is fatherless, for life is | creation. Therefore, your decision is always an answer to the |
| Tx:10.3 | but God has created by extension. The cornerstone of God's | creation is you, for His thought system is light. Remember the rays |
| Tx:10.7 | cannot be filled by anyone except you, and your filling it was your | creation, without you there would be an empty place in God's Mind. |
| Tx:10.8 | nor endings were created by the Eternal, Who placed no limits on His | creation nor upon those who create like Him. You do not know this |
| Tx:10.8 | you have tried to limit what He created, and so you believe that all | creation is limited. How, then, could you know your creations, having |
| Tx:10.9 | eyes have not lost the ability to see. Look upon the glory of His | creation, and you will learn what God has kept for you. |
| Tx:10.13 | for himself because His Father is Life and His Son is like Him. | Creation is your will because it is His. |
| Tx:10.21 | gladly extend it. And by this extending, you will begin to remember | creation. |
| Tx:10.31 | Sonship is your salvation, for the Sonship is your Soul. As God's | creation, it is yours, and belonging to you, it is His. Your Soul |
| Tx:10.45 | Yours is the independence of | creation, not of autonomy. Your whole creative function lies in your |
| Tx:11.46 | eternal because you wanted to retain the characteristics of | creation with your own content. Yet creation is not of you, and poor |
| Tx:11.46 | to retain the characteristics of creation with your own content. Yet | creation is not of you, and poor learners need special teaching. You |
| Tx:11.64 | work, for you share in His function. As your function in Heaven is | creation, so your function on earth is healing. God shares His |
| Tx:12.22 | denied you only your request for pain, for suffering is not of His | creation. Having given you creation, He could not take it from you. |
| Tx:12.22 | for pain, for suffering is not of His creation. Having given you | creation, He could not take it from you. He could but answer your |
| Tx:12.53 | for you will remember Him as you call forth the witnesses to His | creation. Those whom you heal bear witness to your healing, for in |
| Tx:13.3 | which seems to be in the future, was accomplished by God in your | creation. The separation has not interrupted it. Creation cannot be |
| Tx:13.3 | by God in your creation. The separation has not interrupted it. | Creation cannot be interrupted. The separation is merely a faulty |
| Tx:13.5 | This is the miracle of | creation; that it is one forever. Every miracle you offer to the Son |
| Tx:13.26 | but knows of union. He teaches healing, but He also knows of | creation. He would have you see and teach as He does, and through |
| Tx:13.44 | wake. The mission of redemption will be fulfilled as surely as the | creation will remain unchanged throughout eternity. You do not have |
| Tx:13.89 | by failing to fulfill your function here? You need not understand | creation to do what must be done before that knowledge would be |
| Tx:14.7 | in the Mind of God that does not share His shining innocence. | Creation is the natural extension of perfect purity. Your only |
| Tx:14.8 | of the Kingdom is the right of God's Son, given him in his | creation. Do not try to steal it from him, or you will ask for guilt |
| Tx:14.10 | purpose of release from guilt to the eternal glory of God and His | creation. And every teaching that points to this points straight to |
| Tx:14.11 | holy lesson, which seeks but to restore what is the right of God's | creation. From everyone whom you accord release from guilt, you will |
| Tx:14.20 | you. The power of decision, which you made in place of the power of | creation, He would teach you how to use on your behalf. You who made |
| Tx:14.26 | They have defined themselves as they were not created. Their | creation was not a point of view, but rather a certainty. Uncertainty |
| Tx:14.36 | Everything God created knows its Creator. For this is how | creation is accomplished by the Creator and by His creations. In the |
| Tx:14.36 | joins them all together, holding them in the oneness out of which | creation happens. |
| Tx:14.37 | like Him can never be dissolved. Heaven itself is union with all of | creation and with its One Creator. And Heaven remains the Will of God |
| Tx:14.46 | creations, or between His Children and their own, the knowledge of | creation must continue forever. The reflections which you accept into |
| Tx:14.71 | that you have always created like your Father. The miracle of | creation has never ceased, having the holy stamp of immortality upon |
| Tx:14.71 | holy stamp of immortality upon it. This is the Will of God for all | creation, and all creation joins in willing this. |
| Tx:14.71 | upon it. This is the Will of God for all creation, and all | creation joins in willing this. |
| Tx:14.74 | and He knows that faith in His Creator must encompass faith in His | creation. In this consistency lies His holiness, which He cannot |
| Tx:15.15 | For, caught in the single instant of the eternal sanctity of God's | creation, it is transformed into forever. Give the eternal instant |
| Tx:15.27 | When God gave Himself to you in your | creation, He established you as host to Him forever. He has not left |
| Tx:15.64 | for you will begin to understand what your Creator is and what His | creation is along with Him. |
| Tx:15.82 | instant on this: God gave the Sonship to you to ensure your perfect | creation. This was His gift, for as He withheld Himself not from you, |
| Tx:15.82 | gift, for as He withheld Himself not from you, He withheld not His | creation. Nothing that ever was created but is yours. Your |
| Tx:15.88 | Heaven and hell, God and the ego, and release your power unto | creation, which is the only purpose for which it was given you. Love |
| Tx:15.108 | is restored, and He joins us in the celebration of His Son's | creation. |
| Tx:16.25 | Spirit is part of you. Created by God, He left neither God nor His | creation. He is both God and you, as you are God and Him together. |
| Tx:16.25 | the Holy Spirit, and their power and gratitude to you for their | creation they offer gladly to your teaching of yourself, who is their |
| Tx:16.37 | Acceptance of your creations is the acceptance of the oneness of | creation, without which you could never be complete. No specialness |
| Tx:16.42 | answer fearlessly the call of Him Who gave eternity to you in your | creation. On this side of the bridge to timelessness you understand |
| Tx:17.29 | In a sense the special relationship was the ego's answer to the | creation of the Holy Spirit, Who was God's answer to the separation. |
| Tx:17.41 | gently, and God rises to your remembrance, offering you the whole of | creation in exchange for your little picture, wholly without value |
| Tx:18.9 | no substitute can keep you from each other. Your reality was God's | creation and has no substitute. |
| Tx:18.11 | upon you, blessing your relationship with truth. God and His whole | creation have entered it together. How lovely and how holy is your |
| Tx:19.18 | his innocence and making himself what God created not. Thus is | creation seen as not eternal, and the Will of God open to opposition |
| Tx:19.20 | be forever. Is this humility? Or is it, rather, an attempt to wrest | creation away from truth and keep it separate? |
| Tx:19.22 | foundation seems to have is found in this. For sin has changed | creation from an idea of God to an ideal the ego wants; a world it |
| Tx:19.31 | is real, remember this: If sin is real, both God and you are not. If | creation is extension, the Creator must have extended Himself, and it |
| Tx:19.32 | the proof of separation seems to be everywhere. And God and His | creation seem to be split apart and overthrown. For sin would prove |
| Tx:19.32 | mightier than God, before which God Himself must bow and offer His | creation to its conqueror. Is this humility or madness? |
| Tx:19.33 | will apart from His and stronger. And each part of God's fragmented | creation would have a different will, opposed to His and in eternal |
| Tx:19.40 | it abide within the Son of God? If it would spread across the whole | creation, it must begin with you and from you reach to everyone who |
| Tx:19.84 | Here is the final end of union, the triumph of the ego's making over | creation, the victory of lifelessness on Life Itself. |
| Tx:21.23 | there you cannot fail to see. The holy instant is not an instant of | creation but of recognition. For recognition comes of vision and |
| Tx:21.27 | to create, and what he makes is meaningless. It changes nothing in | creation, depends entirely upon the madness of its maker, and cannot |
| Tx:21.27 | Your brother thinks he made the world with you. Thus he denies | creation. With you, he thinks the world he made, made him. Thus he |
| Tx:21.87 | change of any kind. It is unshakable as is the love of God for His | creation. Sure in its vision as its Creator is in what He knows, it |
| Tx:22.62 | Creator. For only then would it be possible to attack a part of the | creation without the whole, the Son without the Father, and to attack |
| Tx:22.65 | joins you, so it makes you one with your Creator. And in Him is all | creation joined. Would you regret you cannot fear alone when your |
| Tx:23.49 | but it is insanity. What is the same can have no different function. | Creation is the means for God's extension, and what is His must be |
| Tx:23.50 | another is not complete as yet, and so it cannot be extended to all | creation. Each form of murder and attack that still attracts you and |
| Tx:24.2 | knows. And your decisions come from your beliefs as certainly as all | creation rose in His Mind because of what He knows. |
| Tx:24.5 | This takes many forms but always clashes with the reality of God's | creation and with the grandeur which He gave His Son. What else could |
| Tx:24.49 | knowable and will be known to you. For He could never leave His own | creation. And the sign that this is so lies in your brother, offered |
| Tx:24.49 | about yourself may disappear before his holiness. See in him God's | creation. For in him, his Father waits for your acknowledgment that |
| Tx:24.62 | of earth on whom such love is lavished? What is this parody of God's | creation that takes the place of yours? And where are they, now that |
| Tx:24.63 | shines not alone. What is within your brother still contains all of | creation, everything created and creating, born and unborn as yet, |
| Tx:24.67 | means and end are one, and one with Him. This is the state of true | creation, found not within time, but in eternity. To no one here is |
| Tx:24.71 | offer to the “father” what he wants. Such is the travesty on God's | creation. For as His Son's creation gave Him joy and witness to His |
| Tx:24.71 | he wants. Such is the travesty on God's creation. For as His Son's | creation gave Him joy and witness to His love and shared His purpose, |
| Tx:25.20 | His love if you but share His praise of what He loves? God cherishes | creation as the perfect Father that He is. And so His joy is made |
| Tx:25.33 | creates to bring him joy, sharing his Father's purpose in his own | creation that his joy might be increased and God's along with his. |
| Tx:25.50 | it possible what God created not should share the attributes of His | creation when it opposes it in every way? |
| Tx:26.18 | of God. How could it be, when all He knows is one? He knows of one | creation, one reality, one truth, and but one Son. Nothing conflicts |
| Tx:26.27 | the world and reach beyond the universe to touch the heart of all | creation? What is Heaven but a song of gratitude and love and praise |
| Tx:26.27 | and love and praise by everything created to the Source of its | creation? The holiest of altars is set where once sin was believed to |
| Tx:26.34 | the past—an ancient past, too short to make a world in answer to | creation—did this world appear to rise. So very long ago, for such |

| Tx:26.56 | world which death and desolation seem to rule. In joyous answer will | creation rise within you to replace the world you see with Heaven, |
| Tx:26.57 | lost if what you have is what you are. This is the miracle by which | creation became your function, sharing it with God. It is not |

| Tx:27.32 | must the truth abide. Unweakened power with no opposite is what | creation is. For this there are no symbols. Nothing points beyond the |

| Tx:28.16 | its ending are the same. But in itself it holds the universe of all | creation, without beginning and without an end. |

| Tx:28.52 | Creation proves reality because it shares the function all | creation shares. It is not made of little bits of glass, a piece of |
| Tx:28.59 | has made to him. God keeps His promises; His Son keeps his. In his | creation did his Father say, “You are beloved of Me and I of you |
| Tx:29.24 | not himself alone. And as his Father lost not part of Him in your | creation, so the light in him is brighter still because you gave your |

| Tx:29.34 | perfect gift in whom his Father shines forever and to whom is all | creation given as his own. Because he has it is it given you, and |
| Tx:30.39 | form. Yet this could never be your will because what shares in all | creation cannot be content with small ideas and little things. |
| Tx:30.41 | made but to fill a gap which is not there. It is not this you want. | Creation gives no separate person and no separate thing the power to |

| Tx:30.60 | is Heaven itself. Even the real world has a purpose still beneath | creation and eternity. But fear is gone because its purpose is |
| Tx:30.62 | and yourself was never there. And what the Son of God knew in | creation, he must know again. |
| Tx:30.74 | or escape. There would be one mistake which had the power to undo | creation and to make a world which could replace it and destroy the |

| W1:44.1 | you see in it, but light reflects life and is therefore an aspect of | creation. Creation and darkness cannot coexist, but light and life |
| W1:44.1 | it, but light reflects life and is therefore an aspect of creation. | Creation and darkness cannot coexist, but light and life must go |
| W1:44.1 | but light and life must go together, being but different aspects of | creation. |
| W1:45.3 | left. What is thought by the Mind of God is eternal, being part of | creation. |
| W1:51.5 | they were intended to replace. My thoughts are meaningless, but all | creation lies in the thoughts I think with God. |
| W1:52.2 | reality and thus regard reality as an illusion. Nothing in God's | creation is affected in any way by this confusion of mine. I am |
| W1:52.6 | They do not exist, and so they mean nothing. Yet my mind is part of | creation and part of its Creator. Would I not rather join the |
| W1:53.5 | from the effects of my own insane thoughts when the perfection of | creation is my home? Let me remember the power of my decision and |
| W1:62.2 | is to find out who you are, having denied your Identity by attacking | creation and its Creator. Now you are learning how to remember the |
| W1:72.4 | is only a body, so must He be as well. A creator wholly unlike his | creation is inconceivable. |
| W1:72.8 | plan for salvation and holding your grievances against Him and His | creation, that you may not hear the Voice of truth and welcome it as |
| W1:73.1 | nothingness arise. The will you share with God has all the power of | creation in it. The ego's idle wishes are unshared and therefore have |
| W1:73.1 | your belief can be very strong. But they are idle indeed in terms of | creation. They make nothing that is real. |
| W1:73.3 | of God shares with his Father? Did God create disaster for His Son? | Creation is the will of Both together. Would God create a world that |
| W1:76.11 | you. About His yearning for His only Son, created as His channel for | creation, denied to Him by his belief in hell. |
| W1:76.12 | channels to Him and let His Will extend through us to Him. Thus is | creation endlessly increased. His Voice will speak of this to us, as |
| W1:77.2 | It is implicit in what God your Father is. It was ensured in your | creation and guaranteed by the laws of God. |
| W1:93.5 | God. It does not hurt him nor attack his peace. It has not changed | creation nor reduced eternal sinlessness to sin and love to hate. |
| W1:93.7 | you. Whatever mistakes you made, the truth about you is unchanged. | Creation is eternal and unalterable. Your sinlessness is guaranteed |
| W1:93.8 | of every waking hour, we will begin by stating the truth about our | creation: |
| W1:95.1 | are one within yourself and one with Him. Yours is the unity of all | creation. Your perfect unity makes change in you impossible. You do |
| W1:95.1 | yourself already. You see yourself as a ridiculous parody on God's | creation—weak, vicious, ugly and sinful, miserable and beset with |
| W1:95.11 | are One Self, united with your Creator, at one with every aspect of | creation, and limitless in power and in peace. |
| W1:95.13 | I am One Self, united with my Creator, at one with every aspect of | creation, and limitless in power and in peace. |
| W1:95.16 | goal—to bring awareness of this oneness to all minds, that true | creation may extend the Allness and the Unity of God. |
| W1:105.5 | True giving is | creation. It extends the limitless to the unlimited, eternity to |
| W1:113.2 | are mine because I am One Self, completely whole, at one with all | creation and with God. |
| W1:123.2 | from the self you thought you made to take the place of Him and His | creation. Give Him thanks today. |
| W1:131.9 | God does not suffer conflict. Nor is His | creation split in two. How could it be His Son could be in hell when |
| W1:132.12 | be at all. If you are real, the world you see is false, for God's | creation is unlike the world in every way. And as it was His thought |
| W1:134.2 | It is irrelevant to everything except illusions. Truth is God's | creation, and to pardon this is meaningless. All truth belongs to |
| W1:138.1 | is the way we make what we perceive and what we think is real. | Creation knows no opposite. But here is opposition part of being |
| W1:138.2 | of hell. It is not really thus. Yet what is true in God's | creation cannot enter here unless it is reflected in some form the |
| W1:139.12 | when He created us like Him. We can remember it for everyone, for in | creation are all minds as one and in our memory is the recall how |
| W1:139.13 | In thanks for all | creation, in the name of its Creator and His oneness with all aspects |
| W1:139.13 | in the name of its Creator and His oneness with all aspects of | creation, we repeat our dedication to our cause today each hour, as |
| W1:R4.4 | and what your Father is. It is this thought by which the Father gave | creation to the Son, establishing the Son as co-creator with Himself. |
| W1:151.9 | His word of what you are, for He bears witness to your beautiful | creation and the Mind Whose thought created your reality. What can |
| W1:158.2 | it. It is not this knowledge which you give, for that is what | creation gave. All this cannot be learned. What, then, are you to |
| W1:160.7 | certain of Its own as God is of His Son. He cannot be confused about | creation. He is sure of what belongs to Him. No stranger can be |
| W1:161.4 | Such is the truth. Yet do these thoughts make clear the meaning of | creation? Do these words bring perfect clarity with them to you? What |
| W1:162.2 | became His Father's happiness, His Love, and His completion. Here | creation is proclaimed and honored as it is. There is no dream these |
| W1:163.4 | made of dust. Here is the opposite of God proclaimed as lord of all | creation, stronger than God's Will for life, the endlessness of love |
| W1:167.11 | we understand there is one life and that we share with Him, with all | creation, with their thoughts as well, whom He created in a unity of |
| W1:184.11 | reality. The Holy Spirit uses all of them, but He does not forget | Creation has One Name, One Meaning, and a single Source Which unifies |
| W1:185.1 | awareness, memory of God entirely restored, the resurrection of all | creation fully recognized. |
| W1:186.9 | and call it Son? He Who is changeless shares His attributes with His | creation. All the images His Son appears to make have no effect on |
| W1:191.3 | which induced this weird, unnatural, and ghostly thought which mocks | creation and which laughs at God. Deny your own Identity, and you |
| W1:192.2 | Forgiveness represents your function here. It is not God's | creation, for it is the means by which untruth can be undone. And who |
| W1:192.2 | pardon Heaven? Yet on earth you need the means to let illusion go. | Creation merely waits for your return to be acknowledged, not to be |
| W1:192.3 | Creation cannot even be conceived of in the world. It has no meaning | |
| W1:193.1 | and forever gaining scope, eternally expanding in the joy of full | creation, and eternally open and wholly limitless in Him. This is His |
| W1:195.10 | gratitude is but an aspect of the love which is the Source of all | creation. God gives thanks to you, His Son, for being what you are— |
| W2:230.2 | Father, I seek the peace You gave as mine in my | creation. What was given then must be here now, for my creation was |
| W2:230.2 | as mine in my creation. What was given then must be here now, for my | creation was apart from time and still remains beyond all change. The |
| W2:239.2 | are one, united in this light, and one with You, at peace with all | creation and ourselves. |
| W2:243.2 | Father, today I leave | creation free to be itself. I honor all its parts, in which I am |
| W2:WIS.5 | soon will you be ready to come home? Perhaps today? There is no sin. | Creation is unchanged. Would you still hold return to Heaven back? |
| W2:259.1 | And what but this could be the source of fear, obscuring God's | creation, giving love the attributes of fear and of attack? |
| W2:262.1 | one Son. And it is he that I would look upon today. He is Your one | creation. Why should I perceive a thousand forms in what remains as |
| W2:263.1 | to be my choice instead of all the loveliness with which You blessed | creation—all its purity, its joy, and its eternal, quiet home in |
| W2:264.1 | is that does not share Its holiness, that stands beyond Your one | creation or without the Love Which holds all things within Itself. |
| W2:265.1 | alone. Today I see the world in the celestial gentleness with which | creation shines. There is no fear in it. Let no appearance of my |
| W2:268.1 | and judge against You. Let me not attempt to interfere with Your | creation and distort it into sickly forms. Let me be willing to |
| W2:271.1 | to God's Voice, and seek the witnesses to what is true in God's | creation. In Christ's sight, the world and God's creation meet, and |
| W2:271.1 | is true in God's creation. In Christ's sight, the world and God's | creation meet, and as they come together, all perception disappears. |
| W2:271.1 | on but must live, remembering the Father and the Son; Creator and | creation unified. |
| W2:276.1 | yet we need but to acknowledge Him Who gave His Word to us in our | creation, to remember Him and so recall our Self. |
| W2:278.2 | but the truth. I have had many foolish thoughts about myself and my | creation and have brought a dream of fear into my mind. Today I would |
| W2:283.1 | an image of myself, and it is this I call the Son of God. Yet is | creation as it always was, for Your creation is unchangeable. Let me |
| W2:283.1 | I call the Son of God. Yet is creation as it always was, for Your | creation is unchangeable. Let me not worship idols. I am He my Father |
| W2:WISC.2 | There is no end to the release the Second Coming brings, as God's | creation must be limitless. Forgiveness lights the Second Coming's |
| W2:WISC.3 | to the hands of Christ, to be returned to Spirit in the name of true | creation and the Will of God. |
| W2:WISC.4 | they all are one. And God the Father smiles upon His Son, His one | creation and His only joy. |
| W2:320.1 | his peace, his joy, or any attributes his Father gave in his | creation. What he wills with his Creator and Redeemer must be done. |
| W2:WICR.1 | Creation is the sum of all God's thoughts, in number infinite and | |
| W2:WICR.2 | For He would add to Love by its extension. Thus His Son shares in | creation and must therefore share in power to create. What God has |
| W2:WICR.3 | Creation is the opposite of all illusions, for creation is the truth. | |
| W2:WICR.3 | Creation is the opposite of all illusions, for | creation is the truth. Creation is the holy Son of God, for in |
| W2:WICR.3 | Creation is the opposite of all illusions, for creation is the truth. | Creation is the holy Son of God, for in creation is His Will complete |
| W2:WICR.3 | for creation is the truth. Creation is the holy Son of God, for in | creation is His Will complete in every aspect, making every part |
| W2:WICR.4 | We are | creation—we the Sons of God. We seem to be discrete and unaware of |
| W2:WICR.5 | Our Father calls to us. We hear His Voice, and we forgive | creation in the name of its Creator, Holiness Itself, Whose holiness |
| W2:WICR.5 | in the name of its Creator, Holiness Itself, Whose holiness His own | creation shares; Whose holiness is still a part of us. |
| W2:328.1 | to be separate and that our independence from the rest of God's | creation is the way in which salvation is obtained. Yet all we find |
| W2:329.1 | change. As You are One, so am I one with You. And this I chose in my | creation, where my will became forever one with Yours. That choice |
| W2:WIM.3 | laid before the Word of God upon the universal altar to Creator and | creation, in the light of perfect purity and endless joy. |
| W2:342.1 | Let me not wait again today. Let me forgive all things, and let | creation be as You would have it be and as it is. Let me remember |
| W2:WAI.1 | and whole, shining in the reflection of His Love. In me is His | creation sanctified and guaranteed eternal life. In me is love |
| W2:359.1 | Father, today we will forgive Your world and let | creation be Your own. We have misunderstood all things. But we have |
| M:5.7 | pain forever gone. But with this idea goes also all confusion about | creation. Does not this follow of necessity? Place cause and effect |
| M:5.7 | all the effects they seemed to cause. Cause and effect but replicate | creation. Seen in their proper perspective, without distortion and |
| M:7.6 | deceived about yourself, because you have denied the Source of your | creation. If you are offering only healing, you cannot doubt. If you |
| M:8.2 | of desire to have it for itself. Illusions are travesties of | creation, attempts to bring truth to lies. Finding truth |
| M:27.5 | Death is indeed the death of God if He is Love. And now His own | creation must stand in fear of Him. He is not Father but destroyer. |

| W2:265.1 | my thoughts. Yet is my mind at one with God's. And so I can perceive | creation's gentleness. |

| Tx:4.40 | of invention is not worthy of the abstract creativity of God's | creations. |
| Tx:4.42 | because your ego has set you on the road of perception. Your Soul's | creations are no more fatherless than you are. Your ego and your Soul |

| Tx:13.9 | As miracles in this world join you to your brothers, so do your | creations establish your fatherhood in Heaven. You are the witnesses |
| Tx:14.36 | For this is how creation is accomplished by the Creator and by His | creations. In the holy meeting place are joined the Father and His |
| Tx:14.36 | creations. In the holy meeting place are joined the Father and His | creations, and the creations of His Son with them together. There is |

| Tx:15.89 | Holy Spirit tell you of the love of God for you and the need your | creations have to be with you forever, you would experience the |
| Tx:16.25 | more to you than you tried to take away. He protected both your | creations and you together, keeping one with you what you would |
| Tx:16.37 | Heaven waits silently, and your | creations are holding out their hands to help you cross and welcome |
| Tx:16.37 | enables you to look on all your brothers with gratitude because your | creations were created in union with them. Acceptance of your |
| Tx:16.37 | your creations were created in union with them. Acceptance of your | creations is the acceptance of the oneness of creation, without which |
| Tx:17.27 | And nothing else. To fulfill this function, you relate to your | creations as God to His. For nothing God created is apart from |
| Tx:21.27 | The Son's | creations are like his Father's. Yet in creating them, the Son does |
| Tx:23.48 | universe? Can it create and be what it creates? And can it offer its | creations all that it is and never suffer loss? |
| Tx:24.17 | instantly to mind. And with this memory, the Son remembers his own | creations, as like to him as he is to his Father. And all the world |
| Tx:24.62 | of you as you are to your Father. Yet it stands in place of your | creations, who are son to you, that you might share the Fatherhood of |

| Tx:24.67 | learning to the Given; not till you make again a holy home for your | creations is it understood. |
| W1:132.13 | Release the world! Your real | creations wait for this release to give you fatherhood, not of |
| W1:167.8 | God creates only mind awake. He does not sleep, and His | creations cannot share what He gives not nor make conditions which He |
| W2:253.1 | happen. This must I accept. For thus am I led past this world to my | creations, children of my Will, in Heaven where my holy Self abides |

| Tx:1.97 | The power and strength of man's | creative will must be understood before the real meaning of denial |
| Tx:1.98 | aspects of fear are untrue because they do not exist at the higher | creative level, and therefore do not exist at all. To whatever extent |

| Tx:2.39 | when change of understanding is no longer necessary. The eternally | creative have nothing to learn. Only after the separation was it |
| Tx:2.39 | to learn. Only after the separation was it necessary to direct the | creative forces to learning because changed behavior had become |

| Tx:2.54 | distortion which created magic rests on the belief that there is a | creative ability in matter which the mind cannot control. This error |

| Tx:2.65 | for himself. This means that he recognizes that mind is the only | creative level and that its errors are healed by the Atonement. Once |
| Tx:2.88 | fully. The mind is a very powerful creator, and it never loses its | creative force. It never sleeps. Every instant it is creating and |
| Tx:2.105 | own Creator, Who was expressing the same will in His creation. Since | creative ability rests in the mind, everything that man creates is |
| Tx:3.27 | frame of reference. It also has the disastrous effect of denying the | creative power of the miracle. |
| Tx:3.35 | perception and cognition. Knowledge brings the mental strength for | creative thinking but not for right doing. Perception, miracles, and |
| Tx:3.55 | Methodologically, man's mind has been very | creative but, as always occurs when method and content are separated, |
| Tx:3.55 | inescapable impasse. This kind of thinking cannot result in a | creative outcome, although it has resulted in considerable ingenuity. |
| Tx:4.34 | a delusion. The creations of God do not create myths, although the | creative efforts of man can turn to mythology. It can do so, however, |
| Tx:4.34 | however, only under one condition; what man then makes is no longer | creative. Myths are entirely perceptions and are so ambiguous in form |
| Tx:5.22 | must make. In the holy state, the will is free in the sense that its | creative power is unlimited, but choice itself is meaningless. |
| Tx:7.1 | The | creative power of both God and His creations is limitless, but they |
| Tx:7.1 | not create Him. We have already said that only in this respect your | creative power differs from His. Even in this world there is a |
| Tx:7.2 | and He created you, the Kingdom could not increase through its own | creative thought. Creation would therefore be limited, and you would |
| Tx:7.2 | be limited, and you would not be co-creators with God. As God's | creative Thought proceeds from Him to you, so must your creative |
| Tx:7.2 | As God's creative Thought proceeds from Him to you, so must your | creative thought proceed from you to your creations. Only in this way |
| Tx:7.2 | thought proceed from you to your creations. Only in this way can all | creative power extend outward. God's accomplishments are not yours. |
| Tx:7.91 | Only you can limit your | creative power, but God wills to release it. He no more wills you to |
| Tx:7.112 | glory you see in him. He is a co-creator with God with you. Deny his | creative power, and you are denying yours and that of God, Who |
| Tx:10.45 | Yours is the independence of creation, not of autonomy. Your whole | creative function lies in your complete dependence on God, Whose |
creativeness (1) | ||
| Tx:4.40 | credited the ego with considerable ingenuity, though not with | creativeness. It should, however, be remembered that inventiveness is |
creativity (3) | ||
| Tx:1.86 | nothing at all. He can wait, delay, paralyze himself, reduce his | creativity to almost nothing, and even introduce a developmental |
| Tx:1.86 | developmental arrest or even a regression. But he cannot abolish his | creativity. He can destroy his medium of communication but not his |
| Tx:4.40 | highly specific nature of invention is not worthy of the abstract | creativity of God's creations. |

| Tx:1.11 | Prayer is the natural communication of the created with the | Creator. Through prayer love is received, and through miracles love |
| Tx:1.27 | both. You are a miracle, capable of creating in the likeness of your | Creator. Everything else is only your own nightmare and does not |
| Tx:1.71 | the Atonement itself is one, uniting all creations with their | Creator. |
| Tx:1.77 | a greater one. This is the case only when a Soul stands before its | Creator. Souls are perfect creations and experience awe only in the |

| Tx:1.93 | made. In attitude, then, though not in content, he resembles his own | Creator, Who has perfect faith in His creations because He created |
| Tx:2.5 | perfect. There is no emptiness in it. Because of its likeness to its | Creator, it is creative. No Child of God can lose this ability |
| Tx:2.47 | of enormous procrastination. But it cannot depart entirely from its | Creator, Who set the limits on its ability to miscreate by virtue of |
| Tx:2.61 | but is not creating. It should be obvious, then, that correcting the | creator or inducing it to give up its miscreations is the only |
| Tx:2.88 | he must realize and realize fully. The mind is a very powerful | creator, and it never loses its creative force. It never sleeps. |
| Tx:2.105 | is virtually inevitable. His will to create was given him by his own | Creator, Who was expressing the same will in His creation. Since |
| Tx:3.2 | emphasized that awe is a proper reaction in the Presence of your | Creator. I have been careful to clarify my own role in the Atonement, |
| Tx:3.19 | this, the mind awakens from its sleep and [the Soul] remembers its | Creator. All sense of separation disappears, and level confusion |
| Tx:3.40 | man introduced into himself. He became a perceiver rather than a | creator in the true sense. Consciousness is correctly identified as |
| Tx:3.48 | body and the power of the mind. By uniting my will with that of my | Creator, I naturally remembered the Soul and its own real purpose. |
| Tx:4.41 | unnecessary. The Kingdom of Heaven is you. What else but you did the | Creator create, and what else but you is His Kingdom? This is the |
| Tx:4.42 | ego and your Soul will never be co-creators, but your Soul and your | Creator will always be. Be confident that your creations are as safe |
| Tx:4.74 | as a product of the mind, it is endowed with the power of its own | creator. However, the decision to do this, rather than the ability to |
| Tx:4.96 | creation because it is in complete and direct communication with its | Creator. |
| Tx:5.57 | it from the Kingdom. The joint will of all the Sonship is the only | creator that can create like the Father, because only the complete |
| Tx:5.81 | in you, speaking for patience towards the Sonship in the name of its | Creator. What you need to learn now is that only infinite patience |
| Tx:5.89 | it cannot be surmounted. You are always being pulled back to your | Creator, because you belong to Him. |
| Tx:6.25 | the wholeness of God's creation and by this recognition knows its | Creator. Exclusion and separation are synonymous, as are separation |
| Tx:6.80 | and creating cannot be difficult if God Himself created you as a | creator. The second step, then, is still perceptual, although it is a |
| Tx:7.2 | it. You have the power to add to the Kingdom, but not to add to the | Creator of the Kingdom. You claim this power when you become vigilant |
| Tx:7.7 | that He is the first in the Holy Trinity itself. He is the Prime | Creator, because He created His co-creators. Because He did, time |
| Tx:7.18 | is God. Because it is also you, you share it and extend it as your | Creator did. This needs no translation, because it is perfectly |
| Tx:7.46 | be out of accord with Him. You cannot separate your self from your | Creator, Who created you by sharing His being with you. |
| Tx:7.65 | to you. Unless you perceive His creation truly, you cannot know the | Creator, since God and His creation are not separate. The Oneness of |
| Tx:7.65 | since God and His creation are not separate. The Oneness of the | Creator and the creation is your wholeness, your sanity, and your |
| Tx:7.67 | If you do not extend the Kingdom, you are not thinking with your | Creator and creating as He created. |
| Tx:7.69 | the joy in which it was created and identifying itself with both its | Creator and its creations, knowing they are one. |
| Tx:7.75 | comes from not extending life, since that is not the Will of your | Creator. You can do nothing apart from Him, and you do do nothing |
| Tx:7.79 | Projecting its insane belief that you have been treacherous to your | Creator, it believes that your brothers, who are as incapable of this |
| Tx:7.92 | as it is included in God. The power of the whole Sonship and of its | Creator is therefore the Soul's own fullness, rendering its creations |
| Tx:7.93 | The Soul yearns to share its being as its | Creator did. Created by sharing, its will is to create. It does not |
| Tx:7.93 | fullness cannot be contained any more than can the fullness of its | Creator. Fullness is extension. The ego's whole thought system blocks |
| Tx:7.112 | You do not know yourselves, because you do not know your | Creator. You do not know your creations, because you do not know your |
| Tx:7.112 | truth. You do not know your creations, because you do not know their | creator. You do not know yourselves, because you do not know yours. |
| Tx:8.14 | the Will of God, because this is how you were created. Because your | Creator creates only like Himself, you are like Him. You are part of |
| Tx:8.15 | This is the natural response of every Son of God to the Voice of his | Creator, because it is the Voice for his creations and for his own |
| Tx:8.18 | is perfect creation by the perfectly created in union with Perfect | Creator. The Father must give fatherhood to His Son, because His own |
| Tx:8.36 | it is undivided. The undivided will of the Sonship is the perfect | creator, being wholly in the likeness of God, Whose Will it is. You |
| Tx:8.45 | creation. They do not leave you, any more than you have left your | Creator, but they extend your creation as God extended Himself to |
| Tx:8.48 | choice does make the Son's function unknown to him, but never to his | Creator. And because it is not unknown to his Creator, it is forever |
| Tx:8.48 | him, but never to his Creator. And because it is not unknown to his | Creator, it is forever knowable to him. |
| Tx:8.57 | with part of God Himself is to reach beyond the Kingdom to its | Creator through His Voice, which He has established as part of you. |
| Tx:8.94 | It is impossible to communicate in alien tongues. You and your | Creator can communicate through creation because that, and only that, |
| Tx:9.67 | away the separation, returning your mind simultaneously to your | Creator and your creations. Knowing them, you will have no wish to |
| Tx:9.77 | yourself? Or would you remind him of his wholeness and remember your | Creator with him? To believe a Son of God is sick is to worship the |
| Tx:9.96 | to joy, because he would not accept the fact that, although he was a | creator, he had been created. Yet the Son is helpless without the |
| Tx:9.97 | did not create them. You cannot make creators who are unlike your | Creator any more than He could have created a Son who was unlike Him. |
| Tx:9.101 | of suffering. Yet to do this, you must acknowledge Him as your | Creator. This is not because you will be punished otherwise. It is |
| Tx:10.27 | can sweep you out of all darkness forever. For your Father is your | Creator, and you are like Him. |
| Tx:10.31 | saved for glory. Glory is your inheritance, given your Soul by its | Creator that you might extend it. Yet if you hate part of your own |
| Tx:10.35 | if you attack His Son. When His Son lifts his voice in praise of his | Creator, he will hear the Voice of his Father. Yet the Creator cannot |
| Tx:10.35 | praise of his Creator, he will hear the Voice of his Father. Yet the | Creator cannot be praised without His Son, for their glory is shared, |
| Tx:10.37 | wholeness as yours. For Christ is the Son of God who lives in his | Creator and shines with His glory. Christ is the extension of the |
| Tx:10.37 | extension of the love and the loveliness of God, as perfect as his | Creator and at peace with Him. |
| Tx:10.72 | made many ideas which you have placed between yourselves and your | Creator, and these beliefs are the world as you perceive it. Truth is |
| Tx:12.52 | the hymn of gladness and thanksgiving for the light to the | Creator of light. The holy light that shines forth from God's Son is |
| Tx:12.53 | Shine on your brothers in remembrance of your | Creator, for you will remember Him as you call forth the witnesses to |
| Tx:12.53 | see your own. And as your hymns of praise and gladness rise to your | Creator, He will return your thanks in His clear answer to your call. |
| Tx:13.82 | yourselves the most unnatural habit of not communicating with your | Creator. Yet you remain in close communication with Him and with |
| Tx:14.36 | you by God into unknowingness. Everything God created knows its | Creator. For this is how creation is accomplished by the Creator and |
| Tx:14.36 | knows its Creator. For this is how creation is accomplished by the | Creator and by His creations. In the holy meeting place are joined |
| Tx:14.37 | Heaven itself is union with all of creation and with its One | Creator. And Heaven remains the Will of God for you. Lay no gifts |
| Tx:14.42 | world you can become a spotless mirror in which the Holiness of your | Creator shines forth from you to all around you. You can reflect |
| Tx:14.71 | God, so do we learn as one in Him. God's Teacher is as like to His | Creator as is His Son, and through His Teacher does God proclaim His |
| Tx:14.74 | in you is His understanding. It is as firm as is His faith in His | Creator, and He knows that faith in His Creator must encompass faith |
| Tx:14.74 | firm as is His faith in His Creator, and He knows that faith in His | Creator must encompass faith in His creation. In this consistency |
| Tx:15.64 | learn what you must be, for you will begin to understand what your | Creator is and what His creation is along with Him. |
| Tx:15.105 | justified in sacrificing others. For who could thrust Heaven and its | Creator aside without a sense of sacrifice and loss? And who can |
| Tx:16.25 | also host to them. For nothing real has ever left the mind of its | creator. And what is not real was never there. |
| Tx:16.40 | you but the call for help which rises ceaselessly from you to your | Creator. Would He not answer you whose completion is His? He loves |
| Tx:16.59 | have it be and gave it as it is. Love has no meaning except as its | Creator defined it by His Will. It is impossible to define it |
| Tx:17.22 | be safe, however hidden it may be, in every relationship. For the | Creator of the one relationship has left no part of it without |
| Tx:17.27 | happiness, and nothing God created but would extend happiness as its | Creator did. Whatever fulfills this function not cannot be real. |
| Tx:18.11 | And Heaven looks with love on what is joined in it, along with its | Creator. |
| Tx:18.75 | other for some things but by no means totally dependent on their one | Creator for everything and needing the whole to give them any |
| Tx:18.76 | it from joining with the rest and keeping it apart from its | Creator. This little aspect is no different from the whole, being |
| Tx:18.80 | transformed into the Kingdom of Heaven with all the love of its | Creator shining upon it. The holy instant is your invitation to love, |
| Tx:18.96 | which you knew it not. Learning is useless in the Presence of your | Creator, Whose acknowledgment of you and yours of Him so far |
| Tx:19.5 | would interpose illusions between the Son of God and his | Creator; faith would remove all obstacles that seem to rise between |
| Tx:19.16 | as His Son is slave to nothing, being lord of all along with his | Creator. You can enslave a body, but an idea is free, incapable of |
| Tx:19.31 | sin is real, both God and you are not. If creation is extension, the | Creator must have extended Himself, and it is impossible that what is |
| Tx:19.39 | gratitude which you have offered Him and lay them gently before His | Creator in the name of His most holy Son. And the Father will accept |
| Tx:19.42 | than the universe, for it would hold back the universe and its | Creator. This little wall would hide the purpose of Heaven and keep |
| Tx:19.80 | figures in the funeral procession march not in honor of their | Creator, Whose Will it is they live. They are not following it; they |
| Tx:19.81 | But you who would release him are but honoring the Will of his | Creator. The arrogance of sin, the pride of guilt, the sepulcher of |
| Tx:19.82 | with His own, an Answer which left Him not and therefore brings the | Creator to the awareness of every mind which heard His Answer and |
| Tx:19.90 | attraction for you? Very simply, you would remember your Father. The | Creator of life, the Source of everything that lives, the Father of |
| Tx:20.44 | learn, to share his Father's confidence in him. What is he, that the | Creator of the universe should offer it to him and know it rests in |
| Tx:20.45 | meaning of the Son of God lies solely in his relationship with his | Creator. If it were elsewhere, it would rest upon contingency, but |
| Tx:21.12 | the blind can see, for that same song they sing in honor of their | Creator gives praise to them as well. The blindness which they made |
| Tx:21.20 | to the Son of God without his will and thus without the Will of his | Creator, Whose Will cannot be separate from his own. |
| Tx:21.25 | it causes. Long ago we spoke of your desire to create your own | Creator and be father and not son to Him. This is the same desire. |
| Tx:21.26 | yourself. They are the same mistake. Nothing created not by your | Creator has any influence over you. And if you think what you have |
| Tx:21.26 | and place your faith in its ability to do so, you are denying your | Creator and believing that you made yourself. For if you think the |
| Tx:21.87 | as is the love of God for His creation. Sure in its vision as its | Creator is in what He knows, it looks on everything and sees it is |
| Tx:22.5 | whom God would heal and hate the one He loves, then you and your | Creator have a different will. Yet if you are his will, what you must |
| Tx:22.21 | to do what holds no hope of ever being done. You know what your | Creator wills is possible, but what you made believes it is not so. |
| Tx:22.25 | has any power over you unless you still would be apart from your | Creator and with a will opposed to His. For only if you would believe |
| Tx:22.48 | of its omnipotence and would drown out the hymn of praise to its | Creator which every heart throughout the universe forever sings as |
| Tx:22.52 | love. He knows this mad decision was made by one as dear to His | Creator as love is to itself. |
| Tx:22.61 | seems safer to attack another or yourself than to attack the great | Creator of the universe, whose power you know. |
| Tx:22.62 | of you were separate from the other, and all were separate from your | Creator. For only then would it be possible to attack a part of the |
| Tx:22.64 | realize that your relationship is a reflection of the union of the | Creator and His Son. From loving minds there is no separation. And |
| Tx:22.65 | universe, and because it joins you, so it makes you one with your | Creator. And in Him is all creation joined. Would you regret you |
| Tx:23.10 | perfectly, completely, and eternally. The Son of God at war with his | Creator is a condition as ridiculous as nature roaring at the wind in |
| Tx:23.16 | everything that is not true. You dwell in peace as limitless as its | Creator, and everything is given those who would remember Him. Over |
| Tx:23.23 | made real by what the Son of God has done both to himself and his | Creator. The arrogance on which the laws of chaos stand could not be |
| Tx:23.24 | Here is a principle which would define what the | Creator of reality must be; what He must think and what He must |
| Tx:23.48 | see God's Son a body. For it is not the body that is like the Son's | Creator. And what is lifeless cannot be the Son of Life. How can a |
| Tx:24.31 | Forgive the great | Creator of the universe, the Source of life, of love and holiness, |
| Tx:25.17 | Him that you would see as separate. Yet its frame is joined to its | Creator, one with Him and with His masterpiece. This is its purpose, |
| Tx:25.18 | face, which but reflects the light that shines from it to its | Creator. Think not this face was ever darkened because you saw it in |
| Tx:25.25 | knowledge does not. Knowledge has but one law because it has but one | Creator. But this world has two who made it, and they do not see it |
| Tx:28.10 | You who have sought to lay a judgment on your own | Creator cannot understand it is not He Who laid a judgment on His |
| Tx:28.12 | He offer them unto the one for whom He has been given them! And His | Creator shares His thanks because He would not be deprived of His |
| Tx:28.16 | they establish its causation. Thus, the Son gives fatherhood to his | Creator and receives the gift that he has given Him. It is because he |
| Tx:28.23 | His effects and powerless to keep them since He was no longer their | Creator. In the dream, the dreamer made himself, but what he made has |
| Tx:28.23 | but what he made has turned against him, taking on the role of its | creator as the dreamer had. And as he hated his Creator, so the |
| Tx:28.23 | on the role of its creator as the dreamer had. And as he hated his | Creator, so the figures in the dream have hated him. His body is |
| Tx:28.49 | And you will deny your Self and walk upon an alien ground which your | Creator did not make and where you seem to be a “something” you are |
| Tx:29.32 | its soft embrace, so strong and quiet, tranquil in the might of its | Creator; nothing can intrude upon the sacred Son of God within. Here |
| Tx:29.41 | There is no death because the living share the function their | Creator gave to them. Life's function cannot be to die. It must be |
| Tx:30.43 | are not born and cannot die. They share the attributes of their | creator, nor have they a separate life apart from his. The thoughts |
| Tx:30.47 | home, the Thought God holds of you has never left the mind of its | Creator Whom it knows, as its Creator knows that it is there. |
| Tx:30.47 | of you has never left the mind of its Creator Whom it knows, as its | Creator knows that it is there. |
| Tx:30.73 | from this dilemma if he can forgive. The mind must think of its | Creator as it looks upon itself. If you can see your brother merits |
| W1:29.2 | what shares the purpose of the universe shares the purpose of its | Creator. |
| W1:38.1 | it establishes you as a Son of God, at one with the Mind of his | Creator. Through your holiness, the power of God is made manifest. |
| W1:49.2 | to hear God's Voice call to you lovingly, reminding you that your | Creator has not forgotten His Son. |
| W1:52.6 | they mean nothing. Yet my mind is part of creation and part of its | Creator. Would I not rather join the thinking of the universe than to |
| W1:62.2 | you are, having denied your Identity by attacking creation and its | Creator. Now you are learning how to remember the truth. For this, |
| W1:68.2 | like what you think you have become, for no one can conceive of his | Creator as unlike himself. |
| W1:68.3 | Shut off from your Self, which remains aware of its likeness to its | Creator, your Self seems to sleep, while the part of your mind that |
| W1:68.3 | For he who holds grievances denies he was created by Love, and his | Creator has become fearful to him in his dream of hate. Who can dream |
| W1:72.4 | attacked, for if His Son is only a body, so must He be as well. A | creator wholly unlike his creation is inconceivable. |
| W1:72.15 | your request, remembering that you are asking them of the infinite | Creator of infinity, Who created you like Himself: |
| W1:84.2 | [67] Love created me like Itself. I am in the likeness of my | Creator. I cannot suffer, I cannot experience loss, and I cannot die. |
| W1:84.2 | my own self-concepts to replace my Self. I am in the likeness of my | Creator. Love created me like Itself. |

| W1:95.13 | I am One Self, united with my | Creator, at one with every aspect of creation, and limitless in power |
| W1:95.16 | in light and joy and peace. You are God's Son, One Self with one | Creator and one goal—to bring awareness of this oneness to all |
| W1:95.18 | doubts. This is your Self, the Son of God Himself, sinless as its | Creator, with His strength within you and His love forever yours. You |
| W1:95.21 | You are One Self with me, united with our | Creator in this Self. I honor you because of what I am, and what He |
| W1:97.2 | are the Spirit which completes Himself and shares His function as | Creator. He is with you always, as you are with Him. |
| W1:105.4 | when you accept them as God's gift to you, so does the joy of your | Creator grow when you accept His joy and peace as yours. |
| W1:113.2 | [95] I am One Self, united with my | Creator. Serenity and perfect peace are mine because I am One Self, |
| W1:113.5 | I am One Self, united with my | Creator. |

| W1:154.15 | holy words are true. They are the message sent to us today from our | Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed our minds about |
| W1:154.15 | that we accept no will we do not share, our many gifts from our | Creator will spring to our sight and leap into our hands, and we will |
| W1:160.8 | and sure, that you are not a stranger to your Father, nor is your | Creator stranger made to you. Whom God has joined remains forever |

| Tx:6.21 | a kiss?” unless I believed in betrayal. The whole message of the | crucifixion was simply that I did not. The “punishment” which I am |
| Tx:6.23 | just as all behavior teaches the beliefs which motivate it. The | crucifixion was a complex of behaviors arising out of clearly opposed |
| Tx:6.41 | are something you must learn. We said before that the message of the | crucifixion was, “Teach only love, for that is what you are.” This is |

| Tx:10.65 | his forehead. The love of God surrounds His Son, whom the god of the | crucifixion condemns. Teach not that I died in vain. Teach rather |
| Tx:10.65 | not die by demonstrating that I live in you. For the undoing of the | crucifixion of God's Son is the work of the redemption, in which |
| Tx:10.66 | the Will of God cannot die. His Son has been redeemed from his own | crucifixion, and you cannot assign to death whom God has given |
| Tx:10.66 | cannot assign to death whom God has given eternal life. The dream of | crucifixion still lies heavy on your eyes, but what you see in dreams |

| Tx:12.3 | the ego's destructive urge is so intense that nothing short of the | crucifixion of God's Son can ultimately satisfy it. It does not know |
| Tx:12.6 | We once said that the | crucifixion is the symbol of the ego. When it was confronted with the |
| Tx:12.11 | within yourself something you fear even more. You are not afraid of | crucifixion. Your real terror is of redemption. Under the ego's dark |
| Tx:12.15 | accept love because you did not. You would rather be slaves of the | crucifixion than Sons of God in redemption. For your individual death |
| Tx:12.16 | the tricks and games you offer it can heal it, for here is the real | crucifixion of God's Son. |
| Tx:13.68 | hour and minute, even every second, you are deciding between the | crucifixion and the resurrection, between the ego and the Holy |
| Tx:14.14 | The | crucifixion has no part in the Atonement. Only the resurrection |
| Tx:14.14 | Yet you restore guiltlessness to whomever you see as guiltless. | Crucifixion is always the ego's aim. It sees as guilty, and by its |
| Tx:14.14 | gentleness, which is of God and therefore cannot crucify nor suffer | crucifixion. The temple you restore becomes your altar, for it was |
| Tx:14.15 | the holy circle of Atonement or leave outside, judging him fit for | crucifixion or for redemption. If you bring him into the circle of |

| Tx:20.2 | white and holy sign the Son of God is innocent. Let no dark sign of | crucifixion intervene between the journey and its purpose; between |
| Tx:20.3 | We cannot be united in | crucifixion and in death. Nor can the resurrection be complete till |
| Tx:20.3 | already given him. Let him not wander into the temptation of | crucifixion and delay him there. Help him to go in peace beyond it, |
| Tx:20.15 | Here is your savior and your friend, released from | crucifixion through your vision and free to lead you now where he |
| Tx:21.13 | on which salvation rests; the tiny change of mind by which the | crucifixion is changed to resurrection. And being true, it is so |
| Tx:24.34 | And such is guilt's attraction. Here is death enthroned as savior; | crucifixion is now redemption, and salvation can only mean |
| Tx:26.64 | In | crucifixion is redemption laid, for healing is not needed where there |
| Tx:26.64 | love. To you to whom it has been given to save the Son of God from | crucifixion and from hell and death, all glory be forever. For you |

| Tx:16.39 | veil behind which truth is hidden. To lift the veil which seems so | dark and heavy, it is only needful to value truth beyond all fantasy |
| Tx:17.40 | rightful place, when both are seen in relation to each other. The | dark picture brought to light is not perceived as fearful, but the |
| Tx:18.90 | this artificial floor which looks like rock, is like a bank of low | dark clouds that seems to be a solid wall before the sun. Its |

| Tx:20.2 | lilies, the white and holy sign the Son of God is innocent. Let no | dark sign of crucifixion intervene between the journey and its |
| Tx:21.71 | power and by their envy make themselves afraid of it? These are the | dark ones, silent and afraid, alone and not communicating, fearful |
| Tx:21.72 | Frantic and loud and strong the | dark ones seem to be. Yet they know not their enemy, except they hate |

| Tx:25.19 | Within the darkness, see the savior from the | dark and understand your brother as his Father's Mind shows him to |
| Tx:25.19 | step forth from darkness as you look on him, and you will see the | dark no more. The darkness touched him not, nor you who brought him |
| Tx:26.90 | way. And so you see yourself deprived of light, abandoned to the | dark, unfairly left without a purpose in a futile world. The world is |

| Tx:31.82 | unto you, be hidden from the world. It needs the light, for it is | dark indeed, and men despair because the savior's vision is withheld, |

| W1:69.4 | Think of your mind as a vast circle, surrounded by a layer of heavy | dark clouds. You can see only the clouds because you seem to be |
| W1:75.2 | the happy ending to your long dream of disaster. There are no | dark dreams now. The light has come. Today the time of light begins |
| W1:78.1 | one between a grievance and a miracle. Each grievance stands like a | dark shield of hate before the miracle it would conceal. And as you |
| W1:78.3 | where he has always been. He stands in light, but you were in the | dark. Each grievance made the darkness deeper, and you could not see. |
| W1:78.11 | Be very quiet now and look upon your shining savior. No | dark grievances obscure the sight of him. You have allowed the Holy |

| W1:111.3 | I see through strength, the gift of God to me. My weakness is the | dark His gift dispels by giving me His strength to take its place. |
| W1:123.2 | your Father has not left you to yourself, nor let you wander in the | dark alone. Be grateful He has saved you from the self you thought |

| W1:127.8 | of truth within your mind wherever you give up a false belief, a | dark illusion of your own reality and what love means. He will shine |
| W1:136.18 | arise to take the place of war and vain imaginings. There will be no | dark corners sickness can conceal and keep defended from the light of |

| Tx:20.48 | Love has no | darkened temples where mysteries are kept obscure and hidden from the |

| Tx:1.22 | are associated with fear only because of the fallacious belief that | darkness can hide. Man believes that what he cannot see does not |
| Tx:1.22 | and has led to a denial of the Spiritual eye. The escape from | darkness involves two stages: |
| Tx:1.23 | A. The recognition that | darkness cannot hide. This step usually entails fear. |
| Tx:1.43 | the light where it belongs. Holiness can never be really hidden in | darkness, but man can deceive himself about it. This illusion makes |
| Tx:1.57 | or unreal. This is the same as saying that by perceiving light, | darkness automatically disappears. |
| Tx:1.58 | Darkness is lack of light, as sin is lack of love. It has no unique | |
| Tx:2.19 | error. It brings all error into the light, and since error and | darkness are the same, it corrects error automatically. True denial |
| Tx:2.99 | and love is everything. This is because whenever light enters | darkness, the darkness is abolished. What man believes is true for |
| Tx:2.99 | is everything. This is because whenever light enters darkness, the | darkness is abolished. What man believes is true for him. In this |
| Tx:3.17 | because it exists in light. Only man's attempts to shroud it in | darkness have made it inaccessible to the unwilling and ambiguous to |
| Tx:3.18 | can withstand any form of evil because light abolishes all forms of | darkness. The Atonement is thus the perfect lesson. It is the final |
| Tx:3.26 | A firm commitment to | darkness or nothingness is impossible. No one has ever lived who has |
| Tx:3.26 | himself in this connection. That is why those who live largely in | darkness and emptiness never find any lasting solace. Innocence is |
| Tx:3.46 | not be reconciled with this loss of power because it is incapable of | darkness. This is why it became almost inaccessible to the mind and |
| Tx:3.47 | superconscious was perceived as a threat, because light does abolish | darkness merely by establishing the fact that it is not there. The |
| Tx:3.80 | You who fear salvation are willing death. Life and death, light and | darkness, knowledge and perception are irreconcilable. To believe |
| Tx:4.1 | in the Soul. The truly inspired are enlightened and cannot abide in | darkness. |

| Tx:5.21 | You are the Kingdom of Heaven, but you have let the belief in | darkness enter your minds, and so you need a new light. The Holy |
| Tx:5.21 | The Holy Spirit is the radiance that you must let banish the idea of | darkness. His is the glory before which dissociation falls away and |
| Tx:6.38 | Him at all. The ego is legion, but the Holy Spirit is One. No | darkness abides anywhere in the Kingdom, but your part is only to |
| Tx:6.38 | abides anywhere in the Kingdom, but your part is only to allow no | darkness to abide in your own mind. This alignment with light is |
| Tx:7.110 | Its own radiance shines all around it and extends out into the | darkness of other minds, transforming them into majesty. |
| Tx:8.27 | Light does not attack | darkness, but it does shine it away. If my light goes with you |
| Tx:8.27 | it away with me. The light becomes ours, and you cannot abide in | darkness any more than darkness can abide wherever you go. The |
| Tx:8.27 | light becomes ours, and you cannot abide in darkness any more than | darkness can abide wherever you go. The remembrance of me is the |
| Tx:8.27 | remembrance of yourself and of Him Who sent me to you. You were in | darkness until God's Will was done completely by any part of the |
| Tx:9.25 | there be light,” there was light. Can you find light by analyzing | darkness as the psychotherapist does or like the theologian, by |
| Tx:9.25 | as the psychotherapist does or like the theologian, by acknowledging | darkness in yourself and looking for a distant light to remove it |
| Tx:9.28 | The therapist does not heal; he lets healing be. He can point to | darkness, but he cannot bring light of himself, for light is not of |
| Tx:10.14 | belief that makes you want not to know. Believing this, you hide in | darkness, denying that the light is in you. |
| Tx:10.27 | in you is part of a light so great that it can sweep you out of all | darkness forever. For your Father is your Creator, and you are like |

| Tx:11.17 | you have laid upon yourselves. You are hiding your nightmares in the | darkness of your own certainty and refusing to open your eyes and |
| Tx:12.21 | darkened mind cannot live in the light, and it must seek a place of | darkness where it can believe it is where it is not. God did not |

| Tx:12.41 | Vision depends on light, and you cannot see in darkness. Yet in the | darkness in the private world of sleep, you see in dreams, although |

| Tx:12.42 | your eyes, for you made your way of seeing that you might see in | darkness, and in this you are deceived. Beyond this darkness and yet |
| Tx:12.42 | you might see in darkness, and in this you are deceived. Beyond this | darkness and yet still within you is the vision of Christ, Who looks |
| Tx:12.44 | will they understand because they looked within and saw beyond the | darkness the Christ in them and recognized Him. In the sanity of His |

| Tx:12.47 | This | darkness is in you. The Christ revealed to you now has no past, for |
| Tx:12.51 | past against them? For if you do, you are choosing to remain in the | darkness that is not there and refusing to accept the light that is |
| Tx:12.52 | it is wholly shared. God's guiltless Son is only light. There is no | darkness in him anywhere, for he is whole. Call all your brothers to |
| Tx:12.55 | theirs in power so compelling that it will draw the others out of | darkness as you look on them. |
| Tx:12.56 | your eyes are closed. You do not see your brothers, and in the | darkness you cannot look upon the light you gave to them. |
| Tx:13.5 | to the end of time by bringing healed and healing sight into the | darkness and enabling the world to see. For light must come into the |
| Tx:13.5 | Him to give His gift of light to all who think they wander in the | darkness, and let Him gather them into His quiet sight that makes |
| Tx:13.11 | Fidelity unto this law lets no light in, for it demands fidelity to | darkness and forbids awakening. The ego's laws are strict, and |
| Tx:13.11 | between them like a lamp that shines so brightly that the chain of | darkness in which you bound yourselves will disappear. |
| Tx:13.13 | from what you found in it and placed your faith in. Be faithful unto | darkness and you will not see, because your faith will be rewarded as |
| Tx:13.28 | Look through the cloud of guilt that dims your vision, and look past | darkness to the holy place where you will see the light. The altar to |
| Tx:13.37 | is clear and bright and calls forth one response. There is no | darkness, and there is no contrast. There is no variation. There is |
| Tx:13.47 | exactly opposite, pointing as clearly to Heaven as the ego points to | darkness and to death. We have followed much of the ego's logic and |
| Tx:13.59 | God, He knows it to be true. He brings the light of truth into the | darkness and lets it shine on you. And as it shines, your brothers |

| Tx:14.24 | everything that is not real must disappear, for truth is union. As | darkness disappears in light, so ignorance fades away when knowledge |
| Tx:14.27 | joint acceptance would become impossible. But if one is kept in | darkness from the other, their separation seems to keep them both |

| Tx:20.63 | the darkness of sin, he is invisible. He can but be imagined in the | darkness, and it is here that the illusions you hold about him are |
| Tx:20.63 | never brought to truth and always hidden from it. And here in | darkness is your brother's reality imagined as a body, in unholy |
| Tx:20.65 | of whom is your release, is no illusion. Attempt to see him not in | darkness, for your imaginings about him will seem real there. You |
| Tx:21.4 | are open, and you can see where safety lies and which way leads to | darkness, which to light. Judgment will always give you false |
| Tx:21.39 | Nor is it possible that what gives light be one with what depends on | darkness to be seen. Neither demands the sacrifice of the other. Yet |
| Tx:21.40 | The body was made to be a sacrifice to sin, and in the | darkness so it still is seen. Yet in the light of vision, it is |
| Tx:22.59 | you offer to the other lights up the world. Be not concerned with | darkness; look away from it and toward each other. And let the |

| Tx:24.49 | that not one trace of conflict still remains to haunt you in the | darkness of the night. He is your savior from the dreams of fear. He |
| Tx:25.7 | shines through each body that it looks upon and brushes all its | darkness into light merely by looking past it to the light. The veil |

| Tx:25.19 | Within the | darkness, see the savior from the dark and understand your brother as |
| Tx:25.19 | as his Father's Mind shows him to you. He will step forth from | darkness as you look on him, and you will see the dark no more. The |
| Tx:25.19 | darkness as you look on him, and you will see the dark no more. The | darkness touched him not, nor you who brought him forth for you to |
| Tx:25.19 | much he overlooks the masterpiece in him and sees only a frame of | darkness, it is still your only function to behold in him what he |
| Tx:25.20 | His joy along with Him. And thus is yours completed. Not one ray of | darkness can be seen by those who will to make their Father's |
| Tx:25.22 | him. To each of you is given the power of salvation that escape from | darkness into light be yours to share; that you may see as one what |
| Tx:25.27 | must the Maker of the world correct your error, lest you remain in | darkness where the lamps are not. Everyone here has entered darkness, |
| Tx:25.27 | in darkness where the lamps are not. Everyone here has entered | darkness, yet no one has entered it alone. [Nor need he stay more |
| Tx:25.27 | he has come with Heaven's Help within him ready to lead him out of | darkness into light at any time. |
| Tx:25.34 | in gentleness and light. And in this widening world of light, the | darkness they thought was there is pushed away until it is but |
| Tx:25.36 | bring the light of Heaven with you as you walk beyond the world of | darkness into light? |
| Tx:25.44 | Eyes become used to | darkness, and the light of brilliant day seems painful to the eyes |
| Tx:25.44 | this is not what eyes are for. And who can say that he prefers the | darkness and maintain he wants to see? The wish to see calls down the |
| Tx:25.49 | Spirit cannot employ on his behalf and not against himself. Only in | darkness does your specialness appear to be attack. In light, you see |
| Tx:29.22 | see him shining in the space of light where God abides within the | darkness, you will see that God Himself is where his body is. Before |
| Tx:29.22 | the body disappears, as heavy shadows must give way to light. The | darkness cannot choose that it remain. The coming of the light means |
| Tx:29.23 | you can extend. On earth this means forgive your brother, that the | darkness may be lifted from your mind. When light has come to him |
| Tx:29.23 | he saw the light that he would keep beside him as he walks through | darkness to the everlasting light. |
| Tx:29.54 | face like a dark veil which seems to shut you off from Him, alone in | darkness. Yet the light is there. A cloud does not put out the sun. |
| Tx:29.58 | is infinite, a place where time can interrupt eternity? A place of | darkness set where all is light, a dismal alcove separated off from |
| Tx:31.25 | a sense of endless doubting as you stagger back and forward in the | darkness and alone. Yet these are but appearances of what the journey |
| Tx:31.48 | shrouded vaults are all his sins and yours preserved and kept in | darkness where they cannot be perceived as errors, which the light |
| Tx:31.53 | Perhaps the reason why this concept must be kept in | darkness is that in the light the one who would not think it true is |
| Tx:31.74 | glimpse a shadow of what lies beyond. At least, you merely look on | darkness and perceive the terrified imaginings that come from guilty |
| Tx:31.75 | looks on everyone as he beholds this One. For there is light where | darkness was before, and now the veil is lifted from his sight. |
| Tx:31.97 | it remains. Not one illusion is accorded faith, and not one spot of | darkness still remains to hide the face of Christ from anyone. Thy |
| W1:9.2 | or any other exercises. Each little step will clear a little of the | darkness away, and understanding will finally come to lighten every |
| W1:44.1 | for yesterday, adding another dimension to it. You cannot see in | darkness, and you cannot make light. You can make darkness and then |
| W1:44.1 | You cannot see in darkness, and you cannot make light. You can make | darkness and then think you see in it, but light reflects life and is |
| W1:44.1 | reflects life and is therefore an aspect of creation. Creation and | darkness cannot coexist, but light and life must go together, being |
| W1:44.6 | yourself from time to time that to reach light is to escape from | darkness, whatever you may believe to the contrary. God is the Light |
| W1:59.5 | [44] God is the Light in which I see. I cannot see in | darkness. God is the only Light. Therefore if I am to see, it must be |
| W1:62.1 | It is your forgiveness that will bring the world of | darkness to the light. It is your forgiveness that lets you recognize |
| W1:69.1 | are hiding the light of the world in you, everyone stands in | darkness, and you beside him. But as the veil of your grievances is |
| W1:69.2 | the salvation of the world. We are trying to see past the veil of | darkness that keeps it concealed. We are trying to let the veil be |
| W1:69.7 | of the universe to help you, and God Himself will raise you from | darkness into light. You are in accord with His Will. You cannot fail |
| W1:73.1 | God. This is not the same as the ego's idle wishes, out of which | darkness and nothingness arise. The will you share with God has all |
| W1:73.4 | Will of God. It is not Heaven, but the light of Heaven shines on it. | Darkness has vanished; the ego's idle wishes have been withdrawn. |
| W1:73.5 | can only mirror what is within. The source of neither light nor | darkness can be found without. Grievances darken your mind, and you |
| W1:73.5 | mind, and you look out on a darkened world. Forgiveness lifts the | darkness, reasserts your will, and lets you look upon a world of |
| W1:73.16 | I will there be light. | Darkness is not my will. |
| W1:73.17 | your grievances go instead of cherishing them and hiding them in the | darkness. |
| W1:75.1 | You are at peace, and you bring peace with you wherever you go. | Darkness and turmoil and death have disappeared. The light has come. |
| W1:75.11 | Be confident that on this day there is a new beginning. Without the | darkness of the past upon your eyes, you cannot fail to see today. |
| W1:75.13 | Should you be tempted, say to anyone who seems to pull you back to | darkness: |
| W1:78.3 | stands in light, but you were in the dark. Each grievance made the | darkness deeper, and you could not see. |
| W1:85.2 | Recognizing this, what do I want my grievances for? They keep me in | darkness and hide the light. Grievances and light cannot go together, |
| W1:87.2 | use the power of my will today. It is not my will to grope about in | darkness, fearful of shadows and afraid of things unseen and unreal. |
| W1:88.2 | but choose the light, for it has no alternative. It has replaced the | darkness, and the dark is gone. |
| W1:88.4 | This cannot show me | darkness, for the light has come. The light in you is all that I |
| W1:91.2 | To you, then, light is crucial. While you remain in | darkness, the miracle remains unseen. Thus you are convinced it is |
| W1:91.2 | it is not there. This follows from the premises from which the | darkness comes. Denial of light leads to failure to perceive it. |
| W1:91.2 | to failure to perceive it. Failure to perceive light is to perceive | darkness. The light is useless to you then, even though it is there. |
| W1:91.2 | its presence is unknown to you. And the seeming reality of the | darkness makes the idea of light meaningless. |
| W1:91.3 | doubt the images they show you are reality. Your faith lies in the | darkness, not the light. |
| W1:91.11 | but certain. I am not an illusion, but a reality. I cannot see in | darkness, but in light. |
| W1:92.1 | the previous one. You do not think of light in terms of strength and | darkness in terms of weakness. That is because your idea of what |
| W1:92.3 | is your weakness that sees through the body's eyes, peering about in | darkness to behold the likeness of itself—the small, the weak, the |
| W1:92.4 | It sees itself. It brings the light in which your Self appears. In | darkness you perceive a self that is not there. |
| W1:92.5 | idol falsely worshiped and adored that strength may be dispelled and | darkness rule where God appointed that there should be light. |
| W1:92.5 | and shines with light its Source has given it; weakness reflects the | darkness of its maker. It is sick and looks on sickness, which is |
| W1:92.7 | Weakness, which looks in | darkness, cannot see a purpose in forgiveness and in love. It sees |
| W1:92.7 | that it would share. It judges and condemns but does not love. In | darkness it remains to hide itself and dreams that it is strong and |
| W1:92.7 | is strong and conquering, a victor over limitations that but grow in | darkness to enormous size. It fears and it attacks and hates itself, |
| W1:92.7 | to enormous size. It fears and it attacks and hates itself, and | darkness covers everything it sees, leaving its dreams as fearful as |
| W1:92.8 | flicker and go out. It does not shift from night to day and back to | darkness till the morning comes again. The light of strength is |
| W1:92.11 | recognize that we are being introduced to sight and led away from | darkness to the light, where only miracles can be perceived. |
| W1:93.1 | You think you are the home of evil, | darkness, and sin. You think if anyone could see the truth about you |
| W1:94.2 | guarantee of strength and light as well. You are as God created you. | Darkness cannot obscure the glory of the Son of God. You stand in |
| W1:95.17 | Self, complete and healed and whole, with power to lift the veil of | darkness from the world and let the light in you come through to |
| W1:97.7 | the steady brilliance of this light remain, and leads you out of | darkness, nor will you be able to forget the way again. |
| W1:108.2 | eyes behold. It is a state of mind which has become so unified that | darkness cannot be perceived at all. And thus what is the same is |
| W1:111.2 | [91] Miracles are seen in light. I cannot see in | darkness. Let the light of holiness and truth light up my mind And |
| W1:121.2 | release from pain. It suffers and abides in misery, peering about in | darkness, seeing not, yet certain of the danger lurking there. |
| W1:121.3 | afraid of every sound, yet more afraid of stillness; terrified of | darkness, yet more terrified at the approach of light. |
| W1:127.5 | Seek not within the world to find your Self. Love is not found in | darkness and in death. Yet it is perfectly apparent to eyes that see |
| W1:129.9 | Then close your eyes upon the world you see, and in the silent | darkness watch the lights that are not of this world light one by one |
| W1:129.10 | to you, to shine upon your eyelids as you rest beyond the world of | darkness. Here is light your eyes cannot behold. And yet your mind |
| W1:130.2 | see. Love and perception thus go hand in hand, but fear obscures in | darkness what is there. |
| W1:130.3 | What, then, can fear project upon the world? What can be seen in | darkness that is real? Truth is eclipsed by fear, and what remains is |
| W1:131.1 | is none, for safety in the midst of danger, immortality within the | darkness of the dream of death. Who could succeed where contradiction |
| W1:131.16 | your one intent to go beyond it. Angels light the way, so that all | darkness vanishes and you are standing in a light so bright and clear |
| W1:R4.12 | for us and through our faithfulness restored the world from | darkness to the light, from grief to joy, from pain to peace, from |
| W1:153.11 | while you fail to teach what you have learned, salvation waits and | darkness holds the world in grim imprisonment. Nor will you learn |
| W1:162.6 | You are as God created you. These words dispel the night, and | darkness is no more. The light is come today to bless the world, for |
| W1:182.3 | not at home. He goes uncertainly about in endless search, seeking in | darkness what he cannot find, not recognizing what it is he seeks. A |
| W1:184.10 | —a prison house from which you go into the sunlight and forget the | darkness. Here you understand the Word, the Name Which God has given |
| W1:184.10 | share; the one acknowledgment of what is true. And then step back to | darkness, not because you think it real, but only to proclaim its |
| W1:184.10 | its unreality in terms which still have meaning in the world which | darkness rules. |
| W1:184.11 | Use all the little names and symbols which delineate the world of | darkness. Yet accept them not as your reality. The Holy Spirit uses |
| W1:190.11 | peace of God instead of conflict, and the light of Heaven for the | darkness of the world. |
| W1:192.7 | to perceive that this is so. Without its kindly light we grope in | darkness, using reason but to justify our rage and our attack. Our |
| W1:198.9 | words upon your mind that you may find the key to light and let the | darkness end: |
| W2:I.8 | would have us go. His hand has held us up. His thoughts have lit the | darkness of our minds. His Love has called to us unceasingly since |
| W2:274.1 | the truth will enter where illusions were, light will replace all | darkness, and Your Son will know he is as You created him. |
| W2:302.1 | But we had forgot the Son whom You created. Now we see that | darkness is our own imagining and light is there for us to look upon. |
| W2:302.1 | and light is there for us to look upon. Christ's vision changes | darkness into light, for fear must disappear when love has come. Let |
| W2:304.2 | You lead me from the | darkness to the light, from sin to holiness. Let me forgive and thus |
| W2:WIE.5 | Yet will one lily of forgiveness change the | darkness into light, the altar to illusions to the shrine of Life |
| W2:332.1 | Yet with forgiveness does the light shine through the dream of | darkness, offering it hope and giving it the means to realize the |
| M:1.1 | is established and his direction is sure. A light has entered the | darkness. It may be a single light, but that is enough. He has |
| M:8.1 | on unequal heights and diverse sizes, on varying degrees of | darkness and light, and thousands of contrasts in which each thing |
| M:28.2 | Christ's face is seen in every living thing, and nothing is held in | darkness apart from the light of forgiveness. There is no sorrow |

| Tx:4.39 | generally quite deficient in this respect, as are many theologians. | Data from one realm of discourse do not mean anything in another, |
| Tx:4.39 | on the ego in an attempt to unify their clearly unrelated | data. It need hardly be said that an attempt to relate the unrelated |
| Tx:4.45 | experiences threat and not only censors but also reinterprets the | data. However, as Freud correctly pointed out, what you have |
| Tx:8.76 | catastrophic outcomes. The Holy Spirit, perfectly aware of the same | data, does not bother to analyze them at all. If the data are |
| Tx:8.76 | of the same data, does not bother to analyze them at all. If the | data are meaningless, there is no point in considering them. The |
| Tx:8.76 | is no point in considering them. The function of truth is to collect | data which are true. There is no point in trying to make sense out of |

| Tx:9.86 | Reality can | dawn only on an unclouded mind. It is always there to be accepted, |
| Tx:9.86 | of your ability to evaluate it truly, to let it go. Knowledge cannot | dawn on a mind full of illusions because truth and illusions are |
| Tx:10.34 | Do not oppose this realization, for it is truly the beginning of the | dawn of light. Remember also that the denial of this simple fact |
| Tx:11.10 | attack as the call for help that it is, the unreality of fear must | dawn upon you. For fear is a call for love in unconscious recognition |
| Tx:11.81 | made it invisible and wants to keep it so. For the memory of God can | dawn only in a mind that wills to remember and that has relinquished |
| Tx:12.49 | have not found it. Learn, then, to seek it where it is, and it will | dawn on eyes that see. Your past was made in anger, and if you use it |
| Tx:15.36 | to let all littleness go. The instant in which magnitude will | dawn upon you is but as far away as your desire for it. As long as |
| Tx:31.69 | for you are too confused about yourself. But should one brother | dawn upon your sight as wholly worthy of forgiveness, then your |

| Tx:4.11 | to give his students so much of his own thinking that they will one | day no longer need him. This is the one real goal of the parent, |

| Tx:5.51 | ego, so we can clarify an earlier point. We said that you will one | day teach as much as you learn and that will keep you in balance. The |
| Tx:11.77 | Father nor the Son because of them. You attack the real world every | day and every hour and every minute, and yet you are surprised that |

| Tx:21.39 | that the moon and sun are one because they come with night and | day, and so they must be joined. Yet sight of one is but the sign the |

| Tx:30.29 | We said you can begin a happy | day with the determination not to make decisions by yourself. This |
| Tx:30.30 | Your | day is not at random. It is set by what you choose to live it with |

| Tx:30.31 | in the world. Whose kingdom is the world for you today? What kind of | day will you decide to have? |

| Tx:30.32 | be the one reminder that you keep in mind, and you will have the | day you want and give it to the world by having it yourself. Your |
| Tx:30.32 | judgment has been lifted from the world by your decision for a happy | day. And as you have received, so must you give. |
| Tx:30.82 | You add an element into the script you write for every minute in the | day, and all that happens now means something else. You take away |
| Tx:30.83 | What do your scripts reflect except your plans for what the | day should be? And thus you judge disaster and success, advance, |
| Tx:31.6 | the simple lessons being taught to you in every moment of each | day, since time began and learning had been made? |
| Tx:31.45 | and good. This aspect never makes the first attack. But every | day a hundred little things make small assaults upon its innocence, |
| W1:I.2 | period is one year. Do not undertake more than one exercise a | day. |
| W1:I.3 | It is recommended that each exercise be repeated several times a | day, preferably in a different place each time and, if possible, in |
| W1:I.4 | decide that there are some things you see to which the idea for the | day is inapplicable. The aim of the exercises will always be to |
| W1:1.5 | to anything you see. As you practice applying the idea for the | day, use it totally indiscriminately. Do not attempt to apply it to |
| W1:3.2 | by judgment, in selecting the things to which the idea for the | day is to be applied. For this purpose one thing is like another— |
| W1:4.1 | preceding ones, these exercises do not begin with the idea for the | day. In these practice periods, begin with noting the thoughts that |
| W1:4.5 | not repeat these exercises more than three or four times during the | day. We will return to them later. |
| W1:5.1 | matter, each form becomes a proper subject for the exercises for the | day. Applying the same idea to each of them separately is the first |
| W1:5.12 | Three or four times during the | day are enough. |
| W1:6.3 | that seems to upset you and can profitably be used throughout the | day for that purpose. However, the three or four practice periods |
| W1:8.10 | This can be done four or five times during the | day, unless you find it irritates you. If you find it trying, three |
| W1:9.3 | sufficient, involve looking about you and applying the idea for the | day to whatever you see, remembering the need for its indiscriminate |
| W1:14.9 | can, of course, be applied to anything that disturbs you during the | day, aside from the practice periods. Be very specific in applying |
| W1:15.7 | four. However, the idea can be applied as needed throughout the | day. |
| W1:19.5 | be quite familiar to you by now and will no longer be repeated each | day, although it will occasionally be included as a reminder. Do not |
| W1:20.4 | exercises for today consist in reminding yourselves throughout the | day that you want to see. Today's idea also tacitly implies the |
| W1:23.6 | Besides using it throughout the | day as the need arises, five practice periods are required in |
| W1:26.6 | as yet unsettled which tends to recur in your thoughts during the | day is a suitable subject. You will not be able to use very many for |
| W1:27.6 | or shortly afterwards and attempt to adhere to it throughout the | day. It will not be difficult to do this, even if you are engaged in |
| W1:27.7 | try to keep on your schedule from then on. If only once during the | day you feel that you were perfectly sincere while you were repeating |
| W1:28.7 | have six two minute practice periods today in which the idea for the | day is stated first and then applied to whatever you see in looking |
| W1:30.3 | Today's idea should be applied as often as possible throughout the | day. Whenever you have a moment or so, repeat it to yourself slowly, |
| W1:31.1 | other consisting of frequent applications of the idea throughout the | day. |
| W1:31.4 | addition, repeat the idea for today as often as possible during the | day. Remind yourself that you are making a declaration of |
| W1:32.5 | These exercises are also to be continued during the | day as often as possible. The shorter applications consist of |
| W1:33.2 | to maintain this detachment as you repeat the idea throughout the | day. |
| W1:34.5 | The purpose is to protect yourself from temptation throughout the | day. If a specific form of temptation arises in your awareness, the |
| W1:35.11 | As often as possible during the | day, pick up a specific attribute or attributes you are ascribing to |
| W1:36.2 | applications frequently to protect your protection throughout the | day. The longer practice periods should take this form: |
| W1:40.2 | if you do. However, you may be in a number of situations during the | day when closing your eyes would not be appropriate. Do not miss a |
| W1:41.8 | Throughout the | day, use today's idea often, repeating it very slowly and preferably |
| W1:42.9 | practice periods which would be most beneficial. The idea for the | day is a beginning step in bringing thoughts together and teaching |
| W1:42.10 | The more often you repeat the idea during the | day, the more often you will be reminding yourself that the goal of |
| W1:43.12 | circumstances and situations in which you find yourself during the | day. When you are with someone else, for example, try to remember to |
| W1:43.15 | The idea should also be applied throughout the | day to various situations and events which may occur, particularly to |
| W1:44.11 | Throughout the | day, repeat the idea often with eyes open or closed as seems better |
| W1:45.12 | with God. Take a minute or two as you repeat the idea throughout the | day to appreciate your mind's holiness. Stand aside, however briefly, |
| W1:46.13 | if they are needed. They will be needed at any time during the | day when you become aware of any kind of negative reaction to anyone, |
| W1:49.1 | It is quite possible to listen to God's Voice all through the | day without interrupting your regular activities in any way. The part |
| W1:R1.2 | Begin the | day by reading the five ideas, with the comments included. |
| W1:R1.2 | and the related comments. Do this as often as possible during the | day. If any one of the five ideas appeals to you more than the |
| W1:R1.2 | you more than the others, concentrate on that one. At the end of the | day, however, be sure to review all of them once more. |
| W1:59.3 | has given it to me. Let me call upon this gift today, so that this | day may help me to understand eternity. |
| W1:60.5 | [49] God's Voice speaks to me all through the | day. There is not a moment in which God's Voice ceases to call on my |
| W1:61.8 | Be sure both to begin and end the | day with a practice period. Thus you will awaken with an |
| W1:61.8 | of the truth about yourself, reinforce it throughout the | day, and turn to sleep as you reaffirm your function and your only |
| W1:62.4 | Let us be glad to begin and end this | day by practicing today's idea and to use it as frequently as |
| W1:62.4 | today's idea and to use it as frequently as possible throughout the | day. It will help to make the day as happy for you as God wants you |
| W1:62.4 | frequently as possible throughout the day. It will help to make the | day as happy for you as God wants you to be. And it will help those |
| W1:63.3 | we will be happy to remember it very often today. We will begin the | day by acknowledging it and close the day with the thought of it in |
| W1:63.3 | often today. We will begin the day by acknowledging it and close the | day with the thought of it in our awareness. And throughout the day, |
| W1:63.3 | the day with the thought of it in our awareness. And throughout the | day, we will repeat this as often as we can: |
| W1:64.5 | of it in the morning and again at night and all through the | day as well. |
| W1:64.10 | the frequent applications of today's idea to be made throughout the | day, devote several minutes to reviewing these thoughts and then to |
| W1:65.3 | daily extended practice periods at approximately the same time each | day. Try, also, to determine this time today in advance and then |
| W1:65.4 | The purpose of this is to arrange your | day so that you have set apart the time for God, as well as for all |
| W1:73.11 | His will is now restored to his awareness. He is willing this very | day to look upon the light in him and be saved. |
| W1:75.11 | forgiveness to heal your sight completely. Be confident that on this | day there is a new beginning. Without the darkness of the past upon |
| W1:75.15 | We dedicate this | day to the serenity in which God would have you be. Keep it in your |
| W1:76.14 | to experience ourselves as subject to other laws throughout the | day. It is our statement of freedom from all danger and all tyranny. |
| W1:78.12 | We will remember this throughout the | day and take the role assigned to us as part of God's salvation plan, |
| W1:R2.1 | will begin where our last review left off and cover two ideas each | day. The earlier part of each day will be devoted to one of these |
| W1:R2.1 | left off and cover two ideas each day. The earlier part of each | day will be devoted to one of these ideas, and the latter part of the |
| W1:R2.1 | will be devoted to one of these ideas, and the latter part of the | day to the other. We will have one longer exercise period and |
| W1:R2.4 | of death. You are dedicated to salvation. Be determined each | day not to leave your function unfulfilled. |
| W1:87.2 | it where it leads me, and I will look only on what it shows me. This | day I will experience the peace of true perception. |
| W1:92.8 | not change and flicker and go out. It does not shift from night to | day and back to darkness till the morning comes again. The light of |
| W1:92.11 | we will practice thus. After the morning meeting, we will use the | day in preparation for the time at night when we will meet again in |
| W1:93.17 | today to bring the conviction to your mind that the idea for the | day is true indeed. |
| W1:95.4 | five minutes of every waking hour for practicing the idea for the | day has special advantages at the stage of learning in which you are |
| W1:95.5 | often fail to remember the short applications of the idea for the | day, and you have not yet formed the habit of using it as an |
| W1:95.8 | There may well be a temptation to regard the | day as lost because you have already failed to do what is required. |
| W1:95.20 | Throughout the | day do not forget your goal. Repeat today's idea as frequently as |
| W1:96.17 | the gift. Think, then, how much is given unto you to give this | day, that it be given you! |
| W1:98.1 | Today is a | day of special dedication. We take a stand on but one side today. We |
| W1:100.9 | and that you find it now. For this you came. Let this one be the | day that you succeed! Look deep within you, undismayed by all the |
| W1:103.6 | be given you. Bolster this expectation frequently throughout the | day, and quiet all your fears with this assurance, kind and wholly |
| W1:107.9 | and count on it to enter into all the exercises that we do this | day. |
| W1:109.4 | This is the | day of peace. You rest in God, and while the world is torn by winds |
| W1:110.11 | We will remember Him throughout the | day with thankful hearts and loving thoughts for all who meet with us |
| W1:R3.1 | review begins today. We will review two of the last 20 ideas each | day until we have reviewed them all. We will observe a special format |
| W1:R3.1 | for you to undertake what is suggested here as optimal each | day and every hour of the day. |
| W1:R3.1 | what is suggested here as optimal each day and every hour of the | day. |
| W1:R3.5 | should use for these reviews is this: devote five minutes twice a | day, or longer if you would prefer, to considering the thoughts that |
| W1:R3.8 | the benefits to you if you devote the first five minutes of the | day to your review and also give the last five minutes of your waking |
| W1:R3.8 | to your review and also give the last five minutes of your waking | day to it. If this cannot be done, at least try to divide them so you |
| W1:R3.9 | The exercises to be done throughout the | day are equally important and perhaps of even greater value. You have |
| W1:R3.11 | with you and let it serve to help you keep your peace throughout the | day as well. If you are shaken, think of it again. These practice |
| W1:R3.11 | planned to help you form the habit of applying what you learn each | day to everything you do. |
| W1:R3.12 | of any kind. Try, then, to take it with you in the business of the | day and make it holy, worthy of God's Son, acceptable to God and to |
| W1:121.13 | Do not forget throughout the | day the role forgiveness plays in bringing happiness to every |
| W1:122.2 | in your eyes as you awake and gives you joy with which to meet the | day. It soothes your forehead while you sleep and rests upon your |
| W1:122.2 | malice, and attack. And when you wake again, it offers you another | day of happiness and peace. All this forgiveness offers you, and more. |
| W1:122.9 | our practicing today with hope and faith that this will be the | day salvation will be ours. Earnestly and gladly will we seek for it |
| W1:122.13 | Let not your gifts recede throughout the | day, as you return again to meet a world of shifting change and bleak |
| W1:122.14 | which has power to hold your gifts in your awareness through the | day: |
| W1:123.2 | A | day devoted now to gratitude will add the benefit of some insight |
| W1:125.1 | Let this | day be a day of stillness and of quiet listening. Your Father wills |
| W1:125.1 | Let this day be a | day of stillness and of quiet listening. Your Father wills you hear |
| W1:125.10 | a moment and remind yourself you have a special purpose for this | day—in quiet to receive the Word of God. |
| W1:126.8 | the release which lies in the idea we practice for today, this is a | day of glory for the world. |
| W1:126.11 | can, remind yourself you have a goal today—an aim which makes this | day of special value to yourself and all your brothers. Do not let |
| W1:127.11 | We will remember them throughout the | day because we cannot leave a part of us outside our love if we would |
| W1:128.8 | Protect your mind throughout the | day as well. And when you think you see some value in an aspect or an |
| W1:129.4 | and yet surely understood. Communication, unambiguous and plain as | day, remains unlimited for all eternity. And God Himself speaks to |
| W1:129.10 | behold. And yet your mind can see it plainly and can understand. A | day of grace is given you today, and we give thanks. This day we |
| W1:129.10 | A day of grace is given you today, and we give thanks. This | day we realize that what you feared to lose was only loss. |
| W1:130.5 | Today we will not seek for them nor waste this | day in seeking not what cannot be found. It is impossible to see two |
| W1:131.17 | the Spirit Heaven sent you that you might approach this door some | day and through His aid slip effortlessly past it to the light. Today |
| W1:131.17 | through His aid slip effortlessly past it to the light. Today that | day has come. Today God keeps His ancient promise to His holy Son, as |
| W1:131.17 | to His holy Son, as does His Son remember his to Him. This is a | day of gladness, for we come to the appointed time and place where |
| W1:132.15 | them. And we who are as He created us would loose the world this | day from every one of our illusions that we may be free. |
| W1:132.20 | Throughout the | day, increase the freedom sent through your ideas to all the world, |
| W1:134.19 | Forgiveness should be practiced through the | day, for there will be so many times when you forget its meaning and |
| W1:135.28 | Try not to shape this | day as you believe would benefit you most. For you cannot conceive of |
| W1:135.28 | giant stride and celebrate your Eastertime with you. Throughout the | day, as foolish little things appear to raise defensiveness in you |
| W1:135.28 | you to engage in weaving plans, remind yourself this is a special | day for learning, and acknowledge it with this: |
| W1:137.12 | only truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing will this | day go forth from what is healed to what must yet be healed, aware |
| W1:137.14 | Yet must we be prepared for such a gift. And so we will begin the | day with this and give ten minutes to these thoughts with which we |
| W1:137.16 | Let healing be through you this very | day. And as you rest in quiet, be prepared to give as you receive, to |
| W1:137.16 | attack. Nor will we let this function be forgot as every hour of the | day slips by, remembering our function with this thought: |
| W1:138.12 | hour in between. And now we give the last five minutes of our waking | day to the decision with which we awoke. As every hour passed, we |
| W1:138.12 | quiet time devoted to maintaining sanity. And finally we close the | day with this, acknowledging we chose but what we want: |
| W1:140.11 | We waken hearing Him and let Him speak to us five minutes as the | day begins and end the day by listening again five minutes more |
| W1:140.11 | and let Him speak to us five minutes as the day begins and end the | day by listening again five minutes more before we go to sleep. Our |
| W1:140.14 | prayer be given us as we attend in silence and in joy. This is the | day when healing comes to us. This is the day when separation ends |
| W1:140.14 | and in joy. This is the day when healing comes to us. This is the | day when separation ends and we remember Who we really are. |
| W1:R4.7 | Begin each | day with time devoted to the preparation of your mind to learn what |
| W1:R4.7 | of your mind to learn what each idea you will review that | day can offer you in freedom and in peace. Open your mind and clear |
| W1:R4.9 | Five minutes with this thought will be enough to set the | day along the lines which God appointed and to place His Mind in |
| W1:R4.9 | place His Mind in charge of all the thoughts you will receive that | day. They will not come from you alone, for they will all be shared |
| W1:R4.10 | read each of the two ideas assigned to you to be reviewed that | day. Then close your eyes and say them slowly to yourself. There is |
| W1:R4.10 | given to you through His Voice. Let each idea that you review that | day give you the gift which He has laid in it for you to have of Him. |
| W1:R4.11 | Each hour of the | day bring to your mind the thought with which the day began and spend |
| W1:R4.11 | Each hour of the day bring to your mind the thought with which the | day began and spend a quiet moment with it. Then repeat the two ideas |
| W1:R4.11 | quiet moment with it. Then repeat the two ideas you practice for the | day unhurriedly, with time enough to see the gifts which they contain |
| W1:R4.12 | Each | day of practicing, as we review, we close as we began, repeating |
| W1:R4.12 | we close as we began, repeating first the thought that made the | day a special time of blessing and of happiness for us and through |
| W1:R4.12 | keeping of His Word. And as you give your mind to the ideas for the | day again before you sleep, His gratitude surrounds you in the peace |
| W1:151.13 | with but a single, slow repeating of the thought with which the | day begins. And then we watch our thoughts, appealing silently to Him |
| W1:152.13 | The power of decision is my own. This | day I will accept myself as what my Father's Will created me to be. |
| W1:152.15 | In patience wait for Him throughout the | day and hourly invite Him with the words with which the day began, |
| W1:152.15 | the day and hourly invite Him with the words with which the | day began, concluding it with this same invitation to your Self. |
| W1:153.14 | So is the story ended. Let this | day bring the last chapter closer to the world that everyone may |
| W1:153.15 | in a form we will maintain for quite a while. We will begin each | day by giving our attention to the daily thought as long as possible. |
| W1:153.15 | Five minutes now becomes the least we give to preparation for a | day in which salvation is the only goal we have. Ten would be better; |
| W1:153.19 | defenselessness. We clothe ourselves in it as we prepare to meet the | day. We rise up strong in Christ and let our weakness disappear as we |
| W1:153.19 | us. We will remind ourselves that He remains beside us through the | day and never leaves our weakness unsupported by His strength. |
| W1:155.14 | And now He asks but that you think of Him a while each | day that He may speak to you and tell you of His Love, reminding you |
| W1:156.8 | “Who walks with me?” This question should be asked a thousand times a | day, till certainty has ended doubting and established peace. Today |
| W1:157.1 | This is a | day of silence and of trust. It is a special time of promise in your |
| W1:157.1 | has set apart to shine upon and cast a timeless light upon this | day when echoes of eternity are heard. This day is holy, for it |
| W1:157.1 | timeless light upon this day when echoes of eternity are heard. This | day is holy, for it ushers in a new experience, a different kind of |
| W1:157.4 | for now is what He wills. And having joined your will with His this | day, what you are asking must be given you. Nothing is needed but |
| W1:157.5 | From this | day forth, your ministry takes on a genuine devotion and a glow that |
| W1:157.6 | purpose being now to bring the vision of what you experience this | day to light the world. We cannot give experience like this directly. |
| W1:157.8 | this journey which you make and start today with the experience this | day holds out to you to be your own. |
| W1:162.3 | own—arising with them in his mind, recalling them throughout the | day, at night bringing them with him as he goes to sleep. His dreams |
| W1:164.3 | your seeming sins forgot and all your sorrows unremembered. On this | day is grief laid by, for sights and sounds which come from nearer |
| W1:164.5 | This is the | day when vain imaginings part like a curtain to reveal what lies |
| W1:164.6 | Brothers, this | day is sacred to the world. Your vision, given you from far beyond |
| W1:164.9 | you surely want—you can exchange all suffering for joy this very | day. Practice in earnest, and the gift is yours. Would God deceive |
| W1:168.5 | It is a new and holy | day today, for we receive what has been given us. Our faith lies in |
| W1:169.14 | prayer, yet in the world, what could be more than what we ask this | day of Him Who gives the grace we ask as it was given Him? |
| W1:R5.14 | With this we start each | day of our review. With this we start and end each period of practice |
| W1:R5.14 | once again with these same words upon our lips to greet another | day. No thought that we review but we surround with it and use the |
| W1:R5.14 | before our minds and keep it clear in our remembrance throughout the | day. And thus when we have finished this review, we will have |
| W1:I2.3 | So we now attempt to go past all defenses for a little while each | day. No more than this is asked because no more than this is needed. |
| W1:181.8 | And we will also use these thoughts to keep us safe throughout the | day. We do not seek for long range goals. As each obstruction seems |
| W1:184.10 | Thus what you need are intervals each | day in which the learning of the world becomes a transitory phase—a |
| W1:186.1 | Here is the statement that will one | day take all arrogance away from every mind. Here is the thought of |
| W1:186.8 | bliss of loved and loving. We can laugh or weep and greet the | day with welcome or with tears. Our very being seems to change as we |
| W1:189.2 | gentle home in which to stay a while. It blesses you throughout the | day and watches through the night as silent guardian of your holy |
| W1:190.10 | This is the | day when it is given you to realize the lesson which contains all of |
| W1:192.3 | makes are dreams, but of a kind so close to waking that the light of | day already shines in them. And eyes already opening behold the |
| W1:193.14 | today to overcome a thousand seeming obstacles to peace in just one | day. Let mercy come to you more quickly. Do not try to hold it off |
| W1:193.14 | mercy come to you more quickly. Do not try to hold it off another | day, another minute, or another instant. Time was made for this. Use |
| W1:193.16 | practicing the lesson in forgiveness in the form established for the | day. And try to give it application to the happenings the hour |
| W1:199.5 | Cherish today's idea, and practice it today and every | day. Make it a part of every practice period you take. There is no |
| W1:R6.1 | For this review, we take but one idea each | day, and practice it as often as is possible. Besides the time we |
| W1:R6.1 | than 15 minutes, and the hourly remembrances we make throughout the | day, use the idea as often as you can between them. Each of these |
| W1:R6.2 | accepted, and applied to all the seeming happenings throughout the | day. One is enough. But for that one, there must be no exceptions |
| W1:R6.5 | The | day begins and ends with this. And we repeat it every time the hour |
| W1:R6.5 | this and a repetition of the special thought we practice for the | day, no form of exercise is urged except a deep relinquishment of |
| W1:R6.7 | given up in sure and quick exchange for the idea we practice for the | day. |
| W1:R6.10 | And then repeat the idea for the | day, and let it take the place of what you thought. Beyond such |
| W1:R6.11 | and let us also not forget to Whom it has been given as we practice | day by day, advancing toward the goal He set for us, allowing Him to |
| W1:R6.11 | us also not forget to Whom it has been given as we practice day by | day, advancing toward the goal He set for us, allowing Him to teach |
| W2:I.11 | come afterwards. These special thoughts should be reviewed each | day, each one of them to be continued till the next is given you. |
| W2:I.11 | little while, preceding one of the holy and blessed instants in the | day. We give the first of these instructions now. |
| W2:227.2 | return to Heaven, which we never really left. The Son of God this | day lays down his dreams. The Son of God this day comes home again, |
| W2:227.2 | The Son of God this day lays down his dreams. The Son of God this | day comes home again, released from sin and clad in holiness, with |
| W2:232.1 | Be in my mind, my Father, when I wake and shine on me throughout the | day today. Let every minute be a time in which I dwell with You. And |
| W2:232.2 | This is as every | day should be. Today practice the end of fear. Have faith in Him Who |
| W2:233.2 | one Guide to lead us on. And as we walk together, we will give this | day to Him with no reserve at all. This is His day. And so it is a |
| W2:233.2 | we will give this day to Him with no reserve at all. This is His | day. And so it is a day of countless gifts and mercies unto us. |
| W2:233.2 | day to Him with no reserve at all. This is His day. And so it is a | day of countless gifts and mercies unto us. |
| W2:237.1 | and allow the light in me to shine upon the world throughout the | day. I bring the world the tidings of salvation that I hear as God my |
| W2:241.1 | out the instant to the darkened world where its release is set. The | day has come when sorrows pass away and pain is gone. The glory of |
| W2:242.1 | glad to make no choices for me but the ones that lead to God. This | day I give to Him, for I would not delay my coming home, and it is He |
| W2:247.2 | Self as well. Today I honor You through them, and thus I hope this | day to recognize my Self. |
| W2:250.2 | and as I see him, so I see myself. Today I would see truly that this | day I may at last identify with him. |
| W2:255.1 | And yet my God assures me that His Son is like Himself. Let me this | day have faith in Him Who says I am God's Son. And let the peace I |
| W2:255.2 | And so, my Father, would I pass this | day with You. Your Son has not forgotten You. The peace You gave him |
| W2:262.2 | We who are one would recognize this | day the truth about ourselves. We would come home and rest in unity. |
| W2:266.2 | This | day we enter into paradise, calling upon God's name and on our own, |
| W2:271.1 | Each | day, each hour, every instant, I am choosing what I want to look |

| M:16.1 | a learning goal already set, and one which can be met that very | day. For the advanced teacher of God, then, this question is |
| M:16.2 | on their own part. What must they do to learn to give the | day to God? There are some general rules which do apply, although |

| M:16.10 | statement, it is to this fact that the teacher of God devotes his | day. Each substitute he may accept as real can but deceive him. But |
| M:16.11 | sure that they have learned it. No risk is possible throughout the | day except to put your trust in magic, for it is only this that leads |
| M:16.11 | illusion—that it works. All through his training, every | day and hour, and even every minute and second, must God's teachers |

| Tx:8.83 | it on behalf of sickness. Sleep is no more a form of death than | death is a form of unconsciousness. Unconsciousness is impossible. |
| Tx:9.93 | is to deny their own identity, and in this sense the wages of sin is | death. The sense is very literal; denial of life perceives its |
| Tx:9.96 | Sickness and | death entered the Mind of God's Son against His Will. The “attack on |
| Tx:10.13 | you. Even in time you cannot live apart from Him, for sleep is not | death. What He created can sleep, but it cannot die. Immortality is |
| Tx:10.13 | for His Son and His Son's will for himself. God's Son cannot will | death for himself because His Father is Life and His Son is like Him. |
| Tx:10.66 | has been redeemed from his own crucifixion, and you cannot assign to | death whom God has given eternal life. The dream of crucifixion still |
| Tx:11.32 | world, and those who perceive its reality cannot see the world of | death. For death is not of the real world, in which everything is |
| Tx:11.32 | those who perceive its reality cannot see the world of death. For | death is not of the real world, in which everything is eternal. God |
| Tx:11.32 | the one you made out of your split mind, and which is the symbol of | death. For if you could really separate yourselves from the Mind of |
| Tx:11.33 | You were willing to accept even | death to deny your Father. Yet He would not have it so, and so it is |
| Tx:11.41 | your Father gave you that you might learn you have eternal life. For | death is not your Father's Will nor yours, and whatever is true is |
| Tx:11.41 | price for life, for that was given you, but you do pay a price for | death, and a very heavy one. If death is your treasure, you will sell |
| Tx:11.41 | you, but you do pay a price for death, and a very heavy one. If | death is your treasure, you will sell everything else to purchase it. |
| Tx:11.42 | you into life eternal, but you must relinquish your investment in | death, or you will not see life though it is all around you. |
| Tx:11.74 | you have judged yourself unworthy and have condemned yourself to | death. The death penalty is the ego's ultimate goal, for it fully |
| Tx:11.74 | judged yourself unworthy and have condemned yourself to death. The | death penalty is the ego's ultimate goal, for it fully believes that |
| Tx:11.74 | goal, for it fully believes that you are a criminal, as deserving of | death as God knows you are deserving of life. The death penalty never |
| Tx:11.74 | as deserving of death as God knows you are deserving of life. The | death penalty never leaves the ego's mind, for that is what it always |
| Tx:11.74 | expression of its feeling for you, it lets you live but to await | death. It will torment you while you live, but its hatred is not |
| Tx:11.75 | you that you have been treacherous to God and therefore deserve | death. You will think that death comes from God and not from the ego |
| Tx:11.75 | treacherous to God and therefore deserve death. You will think that | death comes from God and not from the ego because, by confusing |
| Tx:11.75 | by confusing yourself with the ego, you believe that you want | death. And from what you want, God does not save you. |
| Tx:11.76 | When you are tempted to yield to the desire for | death, remember that I did not die. You will realize that this is |
| Tx:11.76 | this is true when you look within and see me. Would I have overcome | death for myself alone? And would eternal life have been given me of |
| Tx:11.76 | it to you? When you learn to make me manifest, you will never see | death. For you will have looked upon the deathless in yourself, and |
| Tx:11.86 | punishment, and all the laws which seem to govern it are the laws of | death. Children are born into it through pain and in pain. Their |
| Tx:11.86 | attended by suffering, and they learn of sorrow and separation and | death. Their minds are trapped in their brain, and its powers decline |
| Tx:11.91 | guilty, you will walk along this carpet, believing that it leads to | death. And the journey will seem long and cruel and senseless, for so |
| Tx:12.3 | realization that you have betrayed God's Son by condemning him to | death. You do not even suspect this murderous but insane idea lies |
| Tx:12.15 | the crucifixion than Sons of God in redemption. For your individual | death is more valued than your living oneness, and what is given you |
| Tx:12.25 | the fact that you were wrong? While it could perhaps be argued that | death suggests there was life, no one would claim that it proves |
| Tx:12.25 | would claim that it proves there is life. Even the past life which | death might indicate could only have been futile if it must come to |
| Tx:12.25 | even though you know not Heaven, might it not be more desirable than | death? You have been as selective in your questioning as in your |
| Tx:12.61 | the crumbling assault of time. Nothing you made but has the mark of | death upon it. Hold it not dear, for it is old and tired and ready to |
| Tx:13.35 | Forgetfulness and sleep and even | death become the ego's best advice for how to deal with the perceived |
| Tx:13.47 | pointing as clearly to Heaven as the ego points to darkness and to | death. We have followed much of the ego's logic and have seen its |
| Tx:13.52 | to live, which has been blocked by the capricious and unholy whim of | death and murder that your Father shared not with you. You have set |
| Tx:14.5 | forever changeless. Accept, then, the immutable. Leave the world of | death behind, and return quietly to Heaven. There is nothing of value |
| Tx:14.19 | Death yields to life simply because destruction is not true. The | |
| Tx:14.41 | with the immortal assurance of their Father's Love. There, fear of | death will be replaced with joy of living. For God is Life, and they |
| Tx:15.2 | of the goal and end of teaching. To the ego the goal is | death, which is its end. But to the Holy Spirit the goal is life, |
| Tx:15.3 | is an ally of time, but not a friend. For it is as mistrustful of | death as it is of life, and what it wants for you it cannot tolerate. |
| Tx:15.3 | And out of its unwillingness for you to find peace even in the | death it wants for you, it offers you immortality in hell. It speaks |
| Tx:15.4 | is directed to. Hell is its goal, for although the ego aims at | death and dissolution as an end, it does not believe it. The goal of |
| Tx:15.4 | death and dissolution as an end, it does not believe it. The goal of | death, which it craves for you, leaves it unsatisfied. No one who |
| Tx:15.4 | No one who follows the ego's teaching is without the fear of | death. Yet if death were thought of merely as an end to pain, would |
| Tx:15.4 | who follows the ego's teaching is without the fear of death. Yet if | death were thought of merely as an end to pain, would it be feared? |
| Tx:15.5 | together so that they seem to be reconciled. The ego teaches thus: | Death is the end as far as hope of Heaven goes. Yet because you and |
| Tx:15.5 | cannot be separated, and because it cannot conceive of its own | death, it will pursue you still because guilt is eternal. Such is the |
| Tx:16.33 | This is the choice they see. And love to them is only an escape from | death. They seek it desperately but not in the peace in which it |
| Tx:16.33 | it would gladly come quietly to them. And when they find the fear of | death is still upon them, the love relationship loses the illusion |
| Tx:16.52 | theme which is acted out in the special relationship. Through the | death of your self, you think you can attack another self and snatch |
| Tx:16.53 | and on his body raise another self which takes its power from his | death. Over and over and over this ritual is enacted. And it is never |
| Tx:16.53 | the ritual of completion cannot complete, and life arises not from | death, nor Heaven from hell. |
| Tx:16.54 | it is—a senseless ritual in which strength is extracted from the | death of God and invested in His killer as the sign that form has |
| Tx:16.55 | No rituals that you have set up in which the dance of | death delights you can bring death to the eternal. Nor can your |
| Tx:16.55 | you have set up in which the dance of death delights you can bring | death to the eternal. Nor can your chosen substitute for the |
| Tx:16.67 | beauty and holiness of guilt. Only the wholly insane could look on | death and suffering, sickness and despair and see it thus. What guilt |
| Tx:17.35 | for these aspects enclose the whole, complete in every aspect. | Death lies in this glittering gift. Let not your gaze dwell on the |
| Tx:17.35 | gleaming of the frame. Look at the picture, and realize that | death is offered you. |
| Tx:17.36 | but you do need defense against your own acceptance of the gift of | death. When you who are truth accept an idea so dangerous to truth, |
| Tx:17.39 | other is framed for perfect clarity. The picture of darkness and of | death grows less convincing as you search it out amid its wrappings. |
| Tx:18.4 | which brought truth to illusion, infinity to time, and life to | death, was all you ever made. Your whole world rests upon it. |
| Tx:18.55 | hate and where you have sown the seeds of vengeance, violence, and | death. This thing you made to serve your guilt stands between you and |
| Tx:19.19 | in the whole idea of sin, it is impossible. For the wages of sin is | death, and how can the immortal die? |
| Tx:19.23 | corrupt his Father and changed His Mind completely. Mourn, then, the | death of God, Whom sin has killed! And this would be the ego's wish, |
| Tx:19.50 | evil and of sin which they can find, losing none of them on pain of | death and laying them respectfully before their lord and master. |
| Tx:19.56 | your sin, and so I had to die instead of you. To the ego sin means | death, and so Atonement is achieved through murder. Salvation is |
| Tx:19.57 | of salvation, but not its Source. No one can die for anyone, and | death does not atone for sin. Yet you can live to show it is not |
| Tx:19.61 | that in it lies salvation? Do you not see that this is the belief in | death? Here is the focus of the perception of Atonement as murder. |
| Tx:19.66 | Where can guilt be, when the belief in sin is gone? And where is | death, when its great advocate is heard no more? |
| Tx:19.72 | the body's pleasure is happiness. Yet to itself it whispers, “It is | death.” |
| Tx:19.75 | as himself, without which he would die, and yet within which is his | death equally inevitable. |
| Tx:19.76 | ego's disciples to realize that they have dedicated themselves to | death. Freedom is offered them, but they have not accepted it, and |
| Tx:19.76 | along the way and finding what it seeks. So does the ego find the | death it seeks, returning it to you. |
| Tx:19.77 | it is given to release and be released from the dedication to | death. For it was offered you, and you accepted. Yet you must learn |
| Tx:19.77 | which peace must flow across. No one can die unless he chooses | death. What seems to be the fear of death is really its attraction. |
| Tx:19.77 | No one can die unless he chooses death. What seems to be the fear of | death is really its attraction. Guilt, too, is feared and fearful. |
| Tx:19.77 | on those who are attracted to it and seek it out. And so it is with | death. Made by the ego, its dark shadow falls across all living |
| Tx:19.78 | in the slow procession which honors their grim master, lord of | death? Touch any one of them with the gentle hands of forgiveness and |
| Tx:19.78 | the black robe he was wearing to his funeral and hear him laugh at | death. The sentence sin would lay upon him he can escape through your |
| Tx:19.79 | God. What is impossible to you who chose His Will as yours? What is | death to you? Your dedication is not to death nor to its master. When |
| Tx:19.79 | His Will as yours? What is death to you? Your dedication is not to | death nor to its master. When you accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose |
| Tx:19.79 | the Holy Spirit's purpose in place of the ego's, you renounced | death, exchanging it for life. We know that an idea leaves not its |
| Tx:19.79 | it for life. We know that an idea leaves not its source. And | death is the result of the thought we call the ego as surely as life |
| Tx:19.80 | From the ego came sin and guilt and | death, in opposition to life and innocence and to the Will of God |
| Tx:19.80 | of Heaven? One thing is sure—God, Who created neither sin nor | death, wills not that you be bound by them. He knows of neither sin |
| Tx:19.81 | black-draped body they would bury? A body which they dedicated to | death, a symbol of corruption, a sacrifice to sin, offered to sin to |
| Tx:19.81 | of separation—all are part of your unrecognized dedication to | death. The glitter of guilt you laid upon the body would kill it. For |
| Tx:19.83 | but serve your purpose. As you look upon it, so will it seem to be. | Death, were it true, would be the final and complete disruption of |
| Tx:19.84 | Those who fear | death see not how often and how loudly they call to it and bid it |
| Tx:19.84 | they call to it and bid it come to save them from communication. For | death is seen as safety, the great dark savior from the light of |
| Tx:19.84 | the silencer of the Voice that speaks for God. Yet the retreat to | death is not the end of conflict. Only God's Answer is its end. The |
| Tx:19.84 | Only God's Answer is its end. The obstacle of your seeming love for | death that peace must flow across seems to be very great. For in it |
| Tx:19.85 | to kill. My brothers, children of our Father, this is a dream of | death. There is no funeral, no dark altars, no grim commandments nor |
| Tx:19.85 | it to do. In its exaltation you commanded it to die, for only | death could conquer life. And what but insanity could look upon the |
| Tx:19.86 | The fear of | death will go as its appeal is yielded to love's real attraction. The |
| Tx:19.86 | it is yours. For it is deathless, and within it lies the end of | death. |
| Tx:19.88 | —the ego has perceived it as a symbol of fear, a sign of sin and | death. Remember then that neither sign nor symbol should be confused |
| Tx:19.89 | upon it, judging it for me. Let me not see it as a sign of sin and | death nor use it for destruction. Teach me how not to make of it an |
| Tx:19.90 | What would you see without the fear of | death? What would you feel and think if death held no attraction for |
| Tx:19.90 | you see without the fear of death? What would you feel and think if | death held no attraction for you? Very simply, you would remember |
| Tx:19.91 | of blood, fades in the blazing light beyond it when the fear of | death is gone. |
| Tx:19.92 | This is the darkest veil, upheld by the belief in | death and protected by its attraction. The dedication to death and to |
| Tx:19.92 | belief in death and protected by its attraction. The dedication to | death and to its sovereignty is but the solemn vow, the promise made |
| Tx:19.93 | See how the belief in | death would seem to “save” you. For if this is gone, what can you |
| Tx:19.93 | if this is gone, what can you fear but life? It is the attraction of | death that makes life seem to be ugly, cruel, and tyrannical. You are |
| Tx:19.93 | seem to be ugly, cruel, and tyrannical. You are no more afraid of | death than of the ego. These are your chosen friends. For in your |
| Tx:19.94 | which you love as you could never love the body. And the appeal of | death is lost forever as love's attraction stirs and calls to you. |
| Tx:19.95 | of sin, the delicate appeal of guilt, the “holy” waxen image of | death, and the fear of vengeance of the ego you swore in blood not to |
| Tx:19.96 | to forget again, no stab of fear, nor the cold sweat of seeming | death can stand against your will. For what attracts you from beyond |
| Tx:19.106 | in it that we may rise as one in resurrection and not separate in | death. Behold the gift of freedom that I gave the Holy Spirit for |
| Tx:19.107 | complete release from sin here in the garden of seeming agony and | death. So will we prepare together the way unto the resurrection of |
| Tx:19.107 | rise again to glad remembrance of his Father, Who knows no sin, no | death, but only life eternal. |
| Tx:20.2 | of the truth and its expression. This week we celebrate life, not | death. And we honor the perfect purity of the Son of God and not his |
| Tx:20.3 | We cannot be united in crucifixion and in | death. Nor can the resurrection be complete till your forgiveness |
| Tx:20.11 | no thorns nor nails to crucify the Son of God and crown him king of | death. Your chosen home is on the other side, beyond the veil. It has |
| Tx:20.19 | through constant dangers, alone and frightened, hoping at most that | death will wait a little longer before it overtakes you and you |
| Tx:20.19 | you see yourself. A murderer is frightened, and those who kill fear | death. All these are but the fearful thoughts of those who would |
| Tx:20.28 | has none; nor to its results as this world sees them—sickness and | death and misery and pain. These things have not occurred because the |
| Tx:20.43 | by remembering them, the laws that held you prisoner to pain and | death must be forgotten. This is no gift your brother's body offers |
| Tx:20.55 | keeping it prisoner in a tiny spot of space and time, beholden unto | death and given but an instant in which to sigh and grieve and die in |
| Tx:20.73 | is but a toy, a whim, the senseless means to play the idle game of | death in your imagination. But vision sets all things right, bringing |
| Tx:20.77 | loveliness and peace; when you have looked on scenes of violence and | death and watched them change to quiet views of gardens under open |
| Tx:21.85 | And so he dies because of what he learned. He goes from life to | death, the final proof he valued the inconstant more than constancy. |
| Tx:22.18 | Illusions carry only guilt and suffering, sickness and | death to their believers. The form in which they are accepted is |
| Tx:22.22 | not decide alone nor differently. Either you give each other life or | death; either you are each other's savior or his judge, offering him |
| Tx:23.8 | And if it were, is this a victory that you would want? The | death of God, if it were possible, would be your death. Is this a |
| Tx:23.8 | you would want? The death of God, if it were possible, would be your | death. Is this a victory? The ego always marches to defeat because it |
| Tx:23.22 | of sin, is that each one must sin and therefore deserves attack and | death. This principle, closely related to the first, is the demand |
| Tx:23.29 | you may have that which belongs to you. His treachery demands his | death that you may live. And you attack only in self defense. |
| Tx:23.30 | But what is it you want that needs his | death? Can you be sure your murderous attack is justified unless you |
| Tx:23.33 | the savior from salvation. How lovely do the laws of fear make | death appear! Give thanks unto the hero on love's throne, who saved |
| Tx:23.33 | the hero on love's throne, who saved the Son of God for fear and | death! |
| Tx:23.35 | How can some forms of murder not mean | death? Can an attack in any form be love? What form of condemnation |
| Tx:23.37 | life is illusion. At best, it seems like life; at worst, like | death. Yet both are judgments on what is not life, equal in their |
| Tx:23.41 | murder and escapes the guilt the thought entails. If the intent is | death, what matter the form it takes? |
| Tx:23.42 | Is | death in any form, however lovely and charitable it may seem to be, a |
| Tx:23.46 | guns are stilled an instant and the fear that haunts the place of | death is not apparent, that it will not return. There is no safety in |
| Tx:23.47 | The fear of God is fear of life and not of | death. Yet He remains the only place of safety. In Him is no attack, |
| Tx:23.49 | the Father and the Son are murderers or neither is. Life makes not | death, creating like itself. |
| Tx:24.23 | receiver. Not one glance from eyes it veils but looks on sight of | death. Not one believer in its potency but seeks for bargains and for |
| Tx:24.25 | this despair you travel now, yet it is but illusion of despair. The | death of specialness is not your death but your awaking into life |
| Tx:24.25 | it is but illusion of despair. The death of specialness is not your | death but your awaking into life eternal. You but emerge from an |
| Tx:24.29 | ever be the same while specialness stands like a flaming sword of | death between them and makes them “enemies.” |
| Tx:24.30 | the same, for neither one wills specialness. How could they will the | death of love itself? Yet they are powerless to make attack upon |
| Tx:24.30 | to be brought to them and left behind. Salvation challenges not even | death. And God Himself, Who knows that death is not your will, must |
| Tx:24.30 | Salvation challenges not even death. And God Himself, Who knows that | death is not your will, must say, “Thy will be done” because you |
| Tx:24.32 | they sleep and call them to come forth and waken from their dream of | death. Yet they hear nothing. They are lost in dreams of specialness. |
| Tx:24.32 | their dream reality. Curse God and die, but not by Him Who made not | death, but only in the dream. Open your eyes a little; see the savior |
| Tx:24.34 | to it to kill it first. And such is guilt's attraction. Here is | death enthroned as savior; crucifixion is now redemption, and |
| Tx:24.43 | delight in but to kill? What does it seek for but the sight of | death? Where does it lead but to destruction? Yet think not that it |
| Tx:24.46 | Heaven that their ears may hear no more the sound of battle and of | death. He reaches through them, holding out His hand that everyone |
| Tx:24.46 | specialness He offers you that you may save all living things from | death, receiving from each one the gift of life that your forgiveness |
| Tx:24.52 | what is not its purpose and will not escape its laws of violence and | death. Yet it is given you to be beyond its laws in all respects, in |
| Tx:24.53 | Let not his specialness obscure the truth in him, for not one law of | death you bind him to will you escape. And not one sin you see in him |
| Tx:24.65 | of loveliness around your hate, and you condemn it to decay and | death. And if you see this purpose in your brother's, such is your |
| Tx:25.1 | very center of your life. What gives you life cannot be housed in | death. No more can you. Christ is within a frame of holiness whose |
| Tx:25.5 | you of yourself—your sinfulness, your evil, and above all, your | death. And would you not despise the one who tells you this and seek |
| Tx:25.5 | And would you not despise the one who tells you this and seek his | death instead? The message and the messenger are one. And you must |
| Tx:25.18 | not this face was ever darkened because you saw it in a frame of | death. God kept it safe that you might look on it and see the |
| Tx:25.19 | seeing is the vision shared that looks on Christ instead of seeing | death. |
| Tx:25.40 | you, your savior offers you salvation. Condemned by you, he offers | death to you. In everyone you see but the reflection of what you |
| Tx:25.50 | with glitter and with guile. Yet each one knows the cost of sin is | death. And so it is. For sin is a request for death, a wish to make |
| Tx:25.50 | the cost of sin is death. And so it is. For sin is a request for | death, a wish to make this world's foundation sure as love, |
| Tx:25.51 | It cannot be the “sinner's” wish for | death is just as strong as is God's Will for life. Nor can the basis |
| Tx:25.54 | that would lead the Son of God to sanity and joy. Nothing attests to | death and cruelty, to separation, and to differences. For here is |
| Tx:25.62 | or you must lose to madness because your aims can not be reconciled. | Death demands life, but life is not maintained at any cost. No one |
| Tx:25.65 | of sin demand a victim. Who it may be makes little difference. But | death must be the cost and must be paid. This is not justice but |
| Tx:25.65 | could justice be defined without insanity where love means hate and | death is seen as victory and triumph over eternity and timelessness |
| Tx:25.73 | He would not allow His Son be judged by those who seek his | death and could not see his worth at all. What honest witnesses could |
| Tx:26.6 | innocence with his and die each time you see in him a sin deserving | death. |
| Tx:26.7 | a sacrifice of life and make your eyes and ears bear witness to the | death of God and of His holy Son, think not that you have power to |
| Tx:26.8 | by time, and far beyond the reach of any sacrifice of life or | death. For neither did he make, and only one was given him by One Who |
| Tx:26.39 | to take its place. And now you are a part of resurrection, not of | death. No past illusions have the power to keep you in a place of |
| Tx:26.39 | of death. No past illusions have the power to keep you in a place of | death, a vault God's Son entered an instant, to be instantly restored |
| Tx:26.41 | now. The real world is the second part of the hallucination time and | death are real and have existence which can be perceived. This |
| Tx:26.42 | a gap at all. Such is each life—a seeming interval from birth to | death and on to life again, a repetition of an instant gone by long |
| Tx:26.44 | in sin, in power of attack, in hurt and harm, in sacrifice and | death has come to you. For no one can make one illusion real and |
| Tx:26.53 | to rule. Perhaps you do not see the role forgiveness plays in ending | death and all beliefs that rise from mists of guilt. |
| Tx:26.56 | sigh that speaks for Heaven as a preference to this world which | death and desolation seem to rule. In joyous answer will creation |
| Tx:26.63 | until he chooses not to die again. In every wish to hurt, he chooses | death instead of what his Father wills for him. Yet every instant |
| Tx:26.64 | been given to save the Son of God from crucifixion and from hell and | death, all glory be forever. For you have power to save the Son of |
| Tx:26.66 | fulfilled. Let us unite in bringing blessing to the world of sin and | death. For what can save each one of us can save us all. There is no |
| Tx:26.76 | freedom in a prisoner's form? Why should deliverance be disguised as | death? Delay is senseless, and the “reasoning” which would maintain |
| Tx:26.79 | be all white and sparkling in the summer sun. What was a place of | death has now become a living temple in a world of light. Because of |
| Tx:27.2 | yourself a living symbol of his guilt, for you will not escape the | death you made for him. But in his innocence, you find your own. |
| Tx:27.3 | eyes that he may see his sins are writ in Heaven in your blood and | death and go before him, closing off the gate and damning him to |
| Tx:27.4 | are merciless to everyone, and in contagion do they seek to kill. | Death seems an easy price if they can say, “Behold me, brother; at |
| Tx:27.4 | at your hand I die.” For sickness is the witness to his guilt, and | death would prove his errors must be sins. |
| Tx:27.5 | Sickness is but a “little” | death; a form of vengeance not yet total. Yet it speaks with |
| Tx:27.7 | It is not will for life, but wish for | death that is the motivation for this world. Its only purpose is to |
| Tx:27.7 | life, how easily destroyed is what you love. Depression speaks of | death and vanity of real concern with anything at all. The strongest |
| Tx:27.8 | of pleasure is their righteous payment for their little lives? Their | death will pay the price for all of them if they enjoy their benefits |
| Tx:27.9 | are not sins, but witnesses unto the strange belief that sin and | death are real, and innocence and sin will end alike within the |
| Tx:27.11 | Here its peace can come and perfect healing take the place of | death. The body can become a sign of life, a promise of redemption, |
| Tx:27.11 | immortality to those grown sick of breathing in the fetid scent of | death. Let it have healing as its purpose. Then will it send forth |
| Tx:27.18 | things the world attests can never be undone. And hopelessness and | death must disappear before the ancient clarion call of life. This |
| Tx:27.18 | life. This call has power far beyond the weak and miserable cry of | death and guilt. The ancient calling of the Father to His Son, and of |
| Tx:27.18 | the last trumpet that the world will ever hear. Brother, there is no | death. And this you learn when you but wish to show your brother that |
| Tx:27.55 | foremost makes no difference. Sin's witnesses hear but the call of | death. |
| Tx:27.57 | He love whatever you hold dear. And for each witness to the body's | death He sends a witness to your life in Him Who knows no death. Each |
| Tx:27.57 | the body's death He sends a witness to your life in Him Who knows no | death. Each miracle He brings is witness that the body is not real. |
| Tx:27.58 | them all as one and called by name of fear. As fear is witness unto | death, so is the miracle the witness unto life. It is a witness no |
| Tx:27.59 | a tiny stab of pain, a little worldly pleasure, and the throes of | death itself are but a single sound—a call for healing and a |
| Tx:27.70 | your destiny in time. The choice is yours to make between a sleeping | death and dreams of evil or a happy wakening and joy of life. What |
| Tx:27.70 | wakening and joy of life. What could you choose between but life or | death, waking or sleeping, peace or war, your dreams or your reality? |
| Tx:27.72 | ancient enemy, a murderer who stalks you in the night and plots your | death, yet plans that it be lingering and slow—of this you dream. |
| Tx:27.74 | to take the place of those you dreamed in terror and in fear of | death. He brings forgiving dreams in which the choice is not who is |
| Tx:27.74 | victim. In the dreams He brings, there is no murder and there is no | death. The dream of guilt is fading from your sight, although your |
| Tx:27.76 | He represents his Father, Whom you see as offering both life and | death to you. Brother, He gives but life. Yet what you see as gifts |
| Tx:28.19 | of your dreaming. Do you wish for dreams of healing or for dreams of | death? A dream is like a memory in that it pictures what you wanted |
| Tx:28.37 | means not to give support to someone's dream of sickness and of | death. It means that you share not his wish to separate and let him |
| Tx:28.48 | is the sharing of the evil dreams of hate and malice, bitterness and | death, of sin and suffering, [of] pain and loss, that makes them |
| Tx:28.53 | secrets and no darkened tombs where terror rises from the bones of | death. Look at the little gap, and you behold the innocence and |
| Tx:28.58 | kept God's promise, not his tiny oath to be forever faithful unto | death. And by his healing is his brother healed. |
| Tx:29.15 | and symbolizes but your wish to be alive apart from life, alive in | death, with death perceived as life, and living, death. Confusion |
| Tx:29.15 | but your wish to be alive apart from life, alive in death, with | death perceived as life, and living, death. Confusion follows on |
| Tx:29.15 | from life, alive in death, with death perceived as life, and living, | death. Confusion follows on confusion here, for on confusion has this |
| Tx:29.19 | is not dead, nor does he dwell in what was built as temple unto | death. He lives in God, and it is this that makes him savior unto |
| Tx:29.19 | this. His body's nothingness releases yours from sickness and from | death. For what is yours cannot be more nor less than what is his. |
| Tx:29.21 | who know not that they live. Within the dream of bodies and of | death is yet one theme of truth—no more, perhaps, than just a tiny |
| Tx:29.35 | and hope to find its peace? Your brother thinks he holds the hand of | death. Believe him not. But learn instead how blessed are you who can |
| Tx:29.36 | is given you in which you have forgiven him for all his dreams of | death—a dream of hope you share with him instead of dreaming evil |
| Tx:29.36 | in death's services. Each form it takes in some way calls for | death. And those who serve the lord of death have come to worship in |
| Tx:29.36 | takes in some way calls for death. And those who serve the lord of | death have come to worship in a separated world, each with his tiny |
| Tx:29.38 | end of separation and the dream of danger and destruction, sin, and | death; of madness and of murder, grief and loss. This is the |
| Tx:29.39 | for time appointed not his destiny nor set the hour of his birth and | death. Forgiveness will not change him. Yet time waits upon |
| Tx:29.41 | set no end to its fulfillment nor its changelessness. There is no | death because the living share the function their Creator gave to |
| Tx:29.42 | it was made to crucify God's Son. For even though it was a dream of | death, you need not let it stand for this to you. Let this be |
| Tx:29.45 | will die and does not understand the idol that he seeks is but his | death. Its form appears to be outside himself. Yet does he seek to |
| Tx:29.46 | betterment is cast as major beneficiary, you try to bring about your | death. For you believe that you can suffer lack, and lack is death. |
| Tx:29.46 | your death. For you believe that you can suffer lack, and lack is | death. To sacrifice is to give up and thus to be without and to have |
| Tx:29.47 | fall because they have no life, and what is lifeless is a sign of | death. You came to die, and what would you expect but to perceive the |
| Tx:29.47 | came to die, and what would you expect but to perceive the signs of | death you seek? No sadness and no suffering proclaims a message other |
| Tx:29.47 | that represents a parody of life which in its lifelessness is really | death, conceived as real and given living form. Yet each must fail |
| Tx:29.47 | form. Yet each must fail and crumble and decay because a form of | death cannot be life, and what is sacrificed cannot be whole. |
| Tx:29.48 | dreams in which all idols fail you one by one, and you see | death and disappointment everywhere. |
| Tx:29.50 | idol can be saved. Salvation thus appears to threaten life and offer | death. |
| Tx:29.51 | It is not so. Salvation seeks to prove there is no | death, and only life exists. The sacrifice of death is nothing lost. |
| Tx:29.51 | to prove there is no death, and only life exists. The sacrifice of | death is nothing lost. An idol cannot take the place of God. Let Him |
| Tx:29.55 | to change one blade of grass from something living to a sign of | death. Its form is nowhere, for its source abides within your mind, |
| Tx:29.69 | is judgment, leading surely to the frantic search for idols and for | death. |
| Tx:30.35 | it is not your will to hate and be a prisoner to fear, a slave to | death, a little creature with a little life. Your will is boundless; |
| Tx:30.37 | walks upon the earth but must depend on your decision, that he learn | death has no power over him because he shares your freedom as he |
| Tx:30.47 | by the turmoil and the terror of the world, the dreams of birth and | death that here are dreamed, the myriad of forms that fear can take; |
| Tx:30.58 | in any form. No one is tempted by its vain appeal, for suffering and | death have been perceived as things not wanted and not striven for. |
| Tx:30.81 | not pardon. For he has become to you a graven image and a sign of | death. Is this your savior? Is his Father wrong about His Son? Or |
| Tx:31.9 | unheard. Without your answer is it left to die, as it is saved from | death when you have heard its calling as the ancient call to life and |
| Tx:31.10 | you who fail to hear the call that echoes past each seeming call to | death, that sings behind each murderous attack and pleads that love |
| Tx:31.16 | fulfilled the function that was given him by you. And thus he merits | death because he has no purpose and no usefulness to you. |
| Tx:31.17 | could he want, but what you want of him? Herein is life as easily as | death, for what you choose, you choose as well for him. Two calls you |
| Tx:31.17 | leader or the follower to you, it matters not, for you have chosen | death. But if he calls for death or calls for life, for hate or for |
| Tx:31.17 | you, it matters not, for you have chosen death. But if he calls for | death or calls for life, for hate or for forgiveness and for help, is |
| Tx:31.30 | find mercy or survive the ravages of fear except in murder and in | death. For here are you made sin, and sin cannot abide the joyous and |
| Tx:31.30 | joyous and the free, for they are enemies which sin must kill. In | death is sin preserved, and those who think that they are sin must |
| Tx:31.32 | And what they see upholds their freedom from imprisonment and | death. Open your mind to change, and there will be no ancient penalty |
| Tx:31.33 | your choosing. Thus you think within the narrow band from birth to | death a little time is given you to use for you alone, a time when |
| Tx:31.34 | to offer. All its roads but lead to disappointment, nothingness, and | death. There is no choice in its alternatives. Seek not escape from |
| Tx:31.34 | certain, for there is no choice among them. All of them will lead to | death. On some you travel gaily for a while before the bleakness |
| Tx:31.42 | He is, be thankful, for in that is your escape from madness and from | death. Nowhere but where He is can you be found. There is no path |
| Tx:31.63 | that make no sense at all. This one appears and disappears in | death; that one is doomed to suffering and loss. And no one is |
| Tx:31.76 | Christ, the fear of God and of salvation, and the love of guilt and | death, they all are different names for just one error—that there |
| Tx:31.81 | thing that you would be instead. It is a thing of madness, pain, and | death; a thing of treachery and black despair, of failing dreams and |
| Tx:31.82 | because the savior's vision is withheld, and what they see is | death. Their savior stands, unknowing and unknown, beholding them |
| W1:53.6 | The fact that I see a world in which there is suffering and loss and | death shows me that I am seeing only the representation of my insane |
| W1:55.2 | differently. What I see now are but signs of disease, disaster, and | death. This cannot be what God created for His beloved Son. The very |
| W1:56.2 | I see myself as under constant attack? Pain, illness, loss, age, and | death seem to threaten me. All my hopes and wishes and plans appear |
| W1:62.2 | by forgiveness so that thoughts of life may replace thoughts of | death. |
| W1:68.1 | decision to let the ego rule your mind and to condemn the body to | death. |
| W1:72.5 | is a body, what must His plan for salvation be? What could it be but | death? In trying to present Himself as the Author of life and not of |
| W1:72.5 | death? In trying to present Himself as the Author of life and not of | death, He is a liar and a deceiver, full of false promises and |
| W1:72.6 | and condemns him for it. And it asserts that his salvation must be | death, projecting this attack onto God and holding Him responsible |
| W1:72.7 | get. God gave you nothing. The body is your only savior. It is the | death of God and your salvation. |
| W1:75.1 | you bring peace with you wherever you go. Darkness and turmoil and | death have disappeared. The light has come. |
| W1:76.3 | pushed into your veins through a sharpened needle will ward off | death. You really think you are alone unless another body is with you. |
| W1:R2.4 | Refuse to be side-tracked into detours, illusions, and thoughts of | death. You are dedicated to salvation. Be determined each day not to |
| W1:93.1 | you would be struck with horror so intense that you would rush to | death by your own hand, living on after seeing this being impossible. |
| W1:93.4 | of yourself cannot withstand the Will of God. You think that this is | death, but it is life. You think you are destroyed, but you are saved. |
| W1:94.5 | Self which knows no fear nor could conceive of loss or suffering or | death. |
| W1:99.5 | does the Holy Spirit look on what you see—on sin and pain and | death, on grief and separation, and on loss. Yet does He know one |
| W1:101.2 | be illusion, for they cannot both be true. The sinful warrant only | death and pain, and it is this they ask for, for they know it waits |
| W1:101.3 | slowly, taking everything away before it grants the welcome boon of | death to victims who are little more than bones before salvation is |
| W1:101.4 | to listen and accept Its offering? If sin is real, its offering is | death and meted out in cruel form to match the vicious wishes in |
| W1:109.3 | you through storms and strife, past misery and pain, past loss and | death, and onward to the certainty of God. There is no suffering it |
| W1:110.1 | so that what God created was replaced by fear and evil, misery and | death. |
| W1:110.2 | created you, fear has no meaning, evil is not real, and misery and | death do not exist. Today's idea is therefore all you need to let |
| W1:110.3 | cannot replace the truth, health cannot turn to sickness, nor can | death be substitute for life or fear for love. All this has not |
| W1:124.2 | at one with God and with itself. How easily do errors disappear and | death give place to everlasting life. Our shining footprints point |
| W1:127.5 | the world to find your Self. Love is not found in darkness and in | death. Yet it is perfectly apparent to eyes that see and ears that |
| W1:131.1 | the midst of danger, immortality within the darkness of the dream of | death. Who could succeed where contradiction is the setting of his |
| W1:131.3 | Pursuit of the imagined leads to | death because it is the search for nothingness, and while you seek |
| W1:131.3 | the search for nothingness, and while you seek for life you ask for | death. You look for safety and security while in your heart you pray |
| W1:132.4 | your sorrows press upon it and keep it a prisoner to your beliefs. | Death strikes it everywhere because you hold the bitter thought of |
| W1:132.4 | Death strikes it everywhere because you hold the bitter thought of | death within your mind. The world is nothing in itself. Your mind |
| W1:132.8 | they can understand and recognize. Some see it suddenly on point of | death and rise to teach it. Others find it in experience that is not |
| W1:132.9 | when you let thoughts of life replace all thoughts you ever held of | death. |
| W1:135.19 | blessing shine in every step you ever took. While you made plans for | death, He led you gently to eternal life. |
| W1:135.27 | in your salvation. And you rise again from what was seeming | death and hopelessness. Now is the light of hope reborn in you, for |
| W1:136.12 | thought to govern it. And Heaven has not bowed to hell, nor life to | death. You can but choose to think you die or suffer sickness or |
| W1:137.9 | His laws replace the ones you made to hold yourself a prisoner to | death. |
| W1:138.7 | changes to despair, and life itself must in the end be overcome by | death. In death alone are opposites resolved, for ending opposition |
| W1:138.7 | to despair, and life itself must in the end be overcome by death. In | death alone are opposites resolved, for ending opposition is to die. |
| W1:138.7 | for ending opposition is to die. And thus salvation must be seen as | death, for life is seen as conflict. To resolve the conflict is to |
| W1:151.16 | of snow-white lilies on the world, replacing witnesses to sin and | death. Through your transfiguration is the world redeemed and |
| W1:152.7 | contradicts His Will, invented opposites to truth, and suffers | death to triumph over life—all this is arrogance. Humility would |
| W1:155.7 | as truth comes forth in you to lead your brothers from the ways of | death and set them on the way to happiness. Their suffering is but |
| W1:156.6 | the world. It heralds not the end of sin in punishment and | death. In lightness and in laughter is it gone, because its quaint |
| W1:157.1 | and awareness. You have spent long days and nights in celebrating | death. Today you learn to feel the joy of life. |
| W1:159.10 | world. It is His gift whereby a sweet transition can be made from | death to life, from hopelessness to hope. Let us an instant dream |
| W1:161.7 | and ultimately killed. When hatred rests upon a thing, it calls for | death as surely as God's Voice proclaims there is no death. Fear is |
| W1:161.7 | it calls for death as surely as God's Voice proclaims there is no | death. Fear is insatiable, consuming everything its eyes behold, |
| W1:162.2 | its call. And those who live and hear this sound will never look on | death. |
| W1:163.1 | Death is a thought which takes on many forms, often unrecognized. It | |
| W1:163.1 | you. All such thoughts are but reflections of the worshipping of | death as savior and as giver of release. |
| W1:163.2 | and the lord of all illusions and deceptions, does the thought of | death seem mighty. For it seems to hold all living things within its |
| W1:163.3 | All things but | death are seen to be unsure, too quickly lost however hard to gain, |
| W1:163.3 | and ashes in their wake in place of aspirations and of dreams. But | death is counted on. For it will come with certain footsteps when the |
| W1:163.4 | and of Son defeated finally and laid to rest beneath the headstone | death has placed upon the body of the holy Son of God. |
| W1:163.5 | Unholy in defeat, he has become what | death would have him be. His epitaph, which death itself has written, |
| W1:163.5 | he has become what death would have him be. His epitaph, which | death itself has written, gives no name to him, for he has passed to |
| W1:163.6 | It is impossible to worship | death in any form and still select a few you would not cherish and |
| W1:163.6 | cherish and would yet avoid while still believing in the rest. For | death is total. Either all things die or else they live and cannot |
| W1:163.7 | The idea of the | death of God is so preposterous that even the insane have difficulty |
| W1:163.7 | will could triumph over His, and so eternal life gave way to | death. And with the Father died the Son as well. |
| W1:163.8 | instantly released. And you will show them this today. There is no | death, and we renounce it now in every form for their salvation and |
| W1:163.8 | in every form for their salvation and our own as well. God made not | death. Whatever form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the |
| W1:163.8 | This the stand we take today. And it is given us to look past | death and see the life beyond. |
| W1:163.9 | You alone. We are not separate from Your eternal life. There is no | death, for death is not Your Will. And we abide where You have placed |
| W1:163.9 | We are not separate from Your eternal life. There is no death, for | death is not Your Will. And we abide where You have placed us, in the |
| W1:165.1 | of the truth which lies beyond? What but your thoughts of misery and | death obscure the perfect happiness and the Eternal Life your Father |
| W1:166.11 | Now do we live, for now we cannot die. The wish for | death is answered, and the sight that looked upon it now has been |
| W1:167.1 | share. Like all His thoughts, it has no opposite. There is no | death because what God created shares His Life. There is no death |
| W1:167.1 | is no death because what God created shares His Life. There is no | death because an opposite to God does not exist. There is no death |
| W1:167.1 | is no death because an opposite to God does not exist. There is no | death because the Father and the Son are one. |
| W1:167.2 | there appears to be a state that is life's opposite. You call it | death. Yet we have learned that the idea of death takes many forms. |
| W1:167.2 | opposite. You call it death. Yet we have learned that the idea of | death takes many forms. It is the one idea which underlies all |
| W1:167.2 | of weariness, a slight discomfort or the merest frown, acknowledge | death. And thus deny you live. |
| W1:167.3 | You think that | death is of the body. Yet it is but an idea, irrelevant to what is |
| W1:167.4 | Death is the thought that you are separate from your Creator. It is | |
| W1:167.5 | Death cannot come from life. Ideas remain united to their source. | |
| W1:167.8 | make conditions which He does not share with them. The thought of | death is not the opposite to thoughts of life. Forever unopposed by |
| W1:167.10 | and sees in dreams an opposite to what he is? We will not ask for | death in any form today. Nor will we let imagined opposites to life |
| W1:167.11 | as well, whom He created in a unity of life that cannot separate in | death and leave the Source of Life from where it came. |
| W1:177.2 | [163] There is no | death. The Son of God is free. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:187.6 | and loss, at sickness and at grief, at poverty, starvation and at | death. He recognizes sacrifice remains the one idea that stands |
| W1:190.1 | the sinfulness He sees in him, and His insane desire for revenge and | death. Can such projections be attested to? Can they be anything but |
| W1:190.3 | love and using pain to prove that God is dead, has shown that | death is victor over life. The body is the Son of God, corruptible in |
| W1:190.3 | is victor over life. The body is the Son of God, corruptible in | death, as mortal as the Father he has slain. |
| W1:190.7 | pains. Your strange desires bring it evil dreams. Your thoughts of | death envelop it in fear, while in your kind forgiveness does it live. |
| W1:191.2 | without, no breath you draw that does not seem to bring you nearer | death, no hope you hold but will dissolve in tears. |
| W1:191.3 | of your enemies. Deny your own Identity and look on evil, sin, and | death. And watch despair snatch from your fingers every scrap of |
| W1:191.6 | the world twisting in agony because your fears have laid the mark of | death upon its heart. |
| W1:191.10 | has lighted up all dark and ancient caverns where the rites of | death echoed since time began. For time has lost its hold upon the |
| W1:191.11 | Heaven. There is nothing that you cannot do. You play the game of | death, of being helpless, pitifully tied to dissolution in a world |
| W1:191.12 | reflection of his holiness. And we will sleep no more and dream of | death. Then join with me today. Your glory is the light that saves |
| W1:192.4 | written there before. Forgiveness is the means by which the fear of | death is overcome because it holds no fierce attraction now, and |
| W1:192.9 | tempt you to be angry represent your savior from the prison-house of | death. And so you owe him thanks instead of pain. |
| W1:193.10 | say these words when we are tempted to believe that pain is real and | death becomes our choice instead of life? Shall we not learn to say |
| W1:194.3 | Him already, is a time of your release from sadness, pain and even | death itself. |
| W1:195.3 | is to wish for. Now can you but try to bring him down to lie in | death with you, as useless as yourself, as little left within his |
| W1:195.5 | suffer cold or hunger, or who walk the way of hatred and the path of | death. All these go with you. Let us not compare ourselves with them, |
| W1:196.3 | of resurrection, looking past all thoughts of crucifixion and of | death to thoughts of liberation and of life. |
| W1:196.11 | Now for an instant is a murderer perceived within you, eager for your | death, intent on plotting punishment for you until the time when it |
| W1:197.6 | lent but for a little while before He snatches them away again in | death. For death will have no meaning for you then. |
| W1:197.6 | for a little while before He snatches them away again in death. For | death will have no meaning for you then. |
| W1:198.4 | leads out of disaster, past all suffering, and finally away from | death. How could there be another way, when this one is the plan of |
| W1:198.7 | and attack appears as justified. Yet all are one—a place where | death is offered to God's Son and to his Father. You may think They |
| W2:226.1 | If I so choose, I can depart this world entirely. It is not | death which makes this possible, but it is change of mind about the |
| W2:237.1 | that Christ would have me see, aware it ends the bitter dream of | death, aware it is my Father's call to me. |
| W2:249.2 | of bitterness, and frightened them with thoughts of violence and | death. Now would we rest again in You, as You created us. |
| W2:WIS.3 | but corruption to complete Himself, His Will forever overcome by | death, love slain by hate, and peace to be no more. |
| W2:WIS.4 | body, prey to evil and to guilt, with but a little life that ends in | death. But all the while his Father shines on him and loves him with |
| W2:271.1 | all perception disappears. His kindly sight redeems the world from | death. For nothing that He looks on but must live, remembering the |
| W2:282.1 | created me. This the determination not to be asleep in dreams of | death while truth remains forever living in the joy of life. And this |
| W2:WIRW.3 | What need has such a mind for thoughts of | death, attack, and murder? What can it perceive surrounding it but |
| W2:294.1 | beloved Son for what must die? And yet a neutral thing does not see | death, for thoughts of fear are not invested there, nor is a mockery |
| W2:300.1 | This is the thought that can be used to say that | death and sorrow are the certain lot of all who come here. For their |
| W2:314.1 | its idols and its images, and being formless, it has no effects. | Death will not claim the future now, for life is now its goal, and |
| W2:328.1 | is obtained. Yet all we find is sickness, suffering and loss, and | death. This is not what our Father wills for us, nor is there any |
| W2:WIE.1 | self, born in a body, doomed to suffer and to end its life in | death. It is the will that sees the Will of God as enemy and takes a |
| W2:WIE.1 | “proof” that strength is weak and love is fearful, life is really | death, and what opposes God alone is true. |
| W2:WIE.3 | The Son of God is egoless. What can he know of madness and the | death of God when he abides in Him? What can he know of sorrow and of |
| W2:331.1 | can conflict with Yours. Conflict is sleep, and peace awakening. | Death is illusion; life, Eternal Truth. There is no opposition to |
| M:I.4 | and closed learning situation which teaches nothing but despair and | death, God sends His teachers. And as they teach His lessons of joy |
| M:1.4 | change the Will of God? But time, with its illusions of change and | death, wears out the world and all things in it. Yet time has an |
| M:5.2 | and powerful, eager to keep all power for Himself. Only by His | death can He be conquered by His Son. |
| M:5.3 | killed to prove to him how weak and pitiful he is. But if he chooses | death himself, his weakness is his strength. Now has he given himself |
| M:5.9 | them. Very gently they call to their brothers to turn away from | death. Behold, you Son of God, what life can offer you. Would you |
| M:6.1 | uses sickness as a way of life, believing healing is the way to | death? When this is so, a sudden healing might precipitate intense |
| M:6.1 | try to destroy himself. Having nothing to live for, he may ask for | death. Healing must wait, for his protection. |
| M:10.6 | time and growing hopelessness; of sickening despair and fear of | death—all these have come of it. And now he knows that these things |
| M:11.1 | His Word has promised peace. It has also promised that there is no | death, that resurrection must occur, and that rebirth is man's |
| M:11.2 | salvation; your judgment would condemn it. God says there is no | death; your judgment sees but death as the inevitable end of life. |
| M:11.2 | would condemn it. God says there is no death; your judgment sees but | death as the inevitable end of life. God's Word assures you that He |
| M:17.6 | be resolved? Its ending is inevitable, for its outcome must be | death. How then can one believe in one's defenses? Magic again must |
| M:17.7 | be removed, and anyone who bears this stain on him must meet with | death. |

| M:20.5 | do not see—that you made death, and it is but illusion of an end. | Death cannot be escape, because it is not life in which the problem |

| M:24.5 | must be recognized, however, is that birth was not the beginning and | death is not the end. Yet even this much is not required of the |
| M:27.1 | Death is the central dream from which all illusions stem. Is it not | |
| M:27.2 | a god knows not of love, because he has denied that life is real. | Death has become life's symbol. His world is now a battleground where |
| M:27.2 | contradiction reigns and opposites make endless war. Where there is | death is peace impossible. |
| M:27.3 | Death is the symbol of the fear of God. His love is blotted out in | |
| M:27.3 | to be destroyed as certainly. And so do all things live because of | death. Devouring is nature's “law of life.” God is insane, and fear |
| M:27.4 | not proclaim a loving God nor re-establish any grounds for trust. If | death is real for anything, there is no life. Death denies life, but |
| M:27.4 | grounds for trust. If death is real for anything, there is no life. | Death denies life, but if there is reality in life, death is denied. |
| M:27.4 | is no life. Death denies life, but if there is reality in life, | death is denied. No compromise in this is possible. There is either a |
| M:27.4 | teachers because not one could be acceptable to God. He did not make | death, because He did not make fear. Both are equally meaningless to |
| M:27.5 | The “reality” of | death is firmly rooted in the belief that God's Son is a body. And if |
| M:27.5 | in the belief that God's Son is a body. And if God created bodies, | death would indeed be real. But God would not be loving. There is no |
| M:27.5 | and that of the world of illusions becomes more sharply evident. | Death is indeed the death of God if He is Love. And now His own |
| M:27.5 | world of illusions becomes more sharply evident. Death is indeed the | death of God if He is Love. And now His own creation must stand in |
| M:27.6 | “And the last to be overcome will be | death.” Of course! Without the idea of death, there is no world. All |
| M:27.6 | last to be overcome will be death.” Of course! Without the idea of | death, there is no world. All dreams will end with this one. This is |
| M:27.6 | This is salvation's final goal, the end of all illusions. And in | death are all illusions born. What can be born of death and still |
| M:27.6 | illusions. And in death are all illusions born. What can be born of | death and still have life? But what is born of God and still can die? |
| M:27.6 | and the rituals the world fosters in its vain attempts to cling to | death and yet to think love real are mindless magic, ineffectual and |
| M:27.7 | one assignment could be stated thus: accept no compromise in which | death plays a part. Do not believe in cruelty nor let attack conceal |
| M:27.7 | any changing form. Truth neither moves nor wavers nor sinks down to | death and dissolution. And what is the end of death? Nothing but |
| M:27.7 | nor sinks down to death and dissolution. And what is the end of | death? Nothing but this: the realization that the Son of God is |
| M:28.1 | Very simply, the resurrection is the overcoming or surmounting of | death. It is a reawakening or a rebirth, a change of mind about the |
| M:28.2 | The resurrection is the denial of | death, being the assertion of life. Thus is all the thinking of the |
| M:28.4 | for the time of everlasting things is now at hand. There is no | death. The Son of God is free. And in his freedom is the end of fear. |

| Tx:4.32 | itself through the body, but the idea that this is possible is a | decision of the ego, which is completely confused about what is |

| Tx:5.27 | your model for decision. By deciding for God, I showed you that this | decision can be made and that you can make it. |

| Tx:5.49 | holds. You made the distinction in terms of feelings, which led to a | decision not to repeat the error, which is only part of healing. Your |
| Tx:5.66 | are answering it every minute and every second, and each moment of | decision is a judgment which is anything but ineffectual. Its effects |

| Tx:5.72 | free. Your ego cannot accept this freedom and will oppose your free | decision at every possible moment and in every possible way. And as |
| Tx:5.94 | this as “sin,” you become defensive because you expect attack. The | decision to react in this way, however, is yours and can therefore be |
| Tx:5.95 | This is obvious if you realize that you must already have made a | decision not to be wholly joyous if that is how you feel. Therefore, |
| Tx:5.96 | I must have decided wrongly, because I am not at peace. I made the | decision myself, but I can also decide otherwise. I will to decide |
| Tx:5.96 | because the Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences of my wrong | decision if I will let Him. I will to let Him, by allowing Him to |
| Tx:6.5 | I have already told you that you can always call on me to share my | decision and thus make it stronger. I also told you that the |
| Tx:6.8 | but our fundamental equality can be demonstrated only through joint | decision. You are free to perceive yourselves as persecuted if you |
| Tx:6.11 | of bodily protection. I am sorry when my brothers do not share my | decision to hear only one voice, because it weakens them as teachers |
| Tx:6.76 | the Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created by God, and your | decision cannot change it. As you begin to realize the quiet power of |
| Tx:6.76 | it must dawn on your minds that you are trying to undo a | decision which was made irrevocably for you. That is why we suggested |
| Tx:6.80 | degrees. Therefore, although this step is essential for the ultimate | decision, it is clearly not the final one. It is clear at this point |
| Tx:7.12 | can listen fairly to both sides of any issue, he will make the right | decision. This is because he has the answer. Conflict can seem to be |
| Tx:7.39 | which is quite apart from what the potential is used for. That is a | decision. The effects of the ego's decision in this matter are so |
| Tx:7.39 | potential is used for. That is a decision. The effects of the ego's | decision in this matter are so apparent that they need no elaboration |
| Tx:7.39 | apparent that they need no elaboration here, but the Holy Spirit's | decision to use the body only for communication has such a direct |
| Tx:7.58 | own maker, then, does not want it. Rejection is therefore the only | decision which the ego could possibly encounter, if the mind which |
| Tx:7.103 | to be weak. Yet weakness is frightening. What else, then, can this | decision mean except that you want to be fearful? The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:7.104 | and refuses to follow any guidance at all. [If the result of this | decision is confusion, this is hardly surprising.] The Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:7.105 | not have to decide anything. Everything has been given you by God's | decision. That is His Will, and you can not undo it. Even the |
| Tx:8.16 | you will learn it, because your will to learn it is your | decision to listen to the Teacher who knows of light and can |
| Tx:8.21 | are following. He will be imprisoned or released according to your | decision, and so will you. Never forget your responsibility to him, |
| Tx:8.23 | wills no one suffer. He does not will anyone to suffer for a wrong | decision, including you. That is why He has given you the means for |
| Tx:8.28 | and accepting God. My will is His, and your will to hear me is the | decision to hear His Voice and abide in His Will. As God sent me to |
| Tx:8.31 | you determine your own condition, because will is the mechanism of | decision. It is the power by which you separate or join and |
| Tx:8.46 | want? You made neither yourself nor your function. You made only the | decision to be unworthy of both. Yet you could not make yourself |
| Tx:8.97 | that God demands sacrifices of any kind. Either basic type of insane | decision will induce panic, because the atheist believes he is alone, |
| Tx:8.103 | though you do not want it. But consider the result of this strange | decision. You are devoting your mind to what you do not want. How |
| Tx:8.111 | to you. What does he say to you? What would you have him say? Your | decision about him determines the message you receive. Remember that |
| Tx:9.18 | that his only hope is to change his mind about reality. Only if the | decision that reality is fearful is wrong can God be right. And I |
| Tx:9.50 | except in terms of attack. When it experiences threat, its only | decision is whether to attack now or to withdraw to attack later. If |
| Tx:9.63 | Then accept His | decision, for it is indeed changeless, and refuse to change your mind |
| Tx:9.68 | precedes dissociation, and dissociation is nothing more than a | decision to forget. What has been forgotten then appears to be |
| Tx:9.69 | of reality brings more than merely lack of fear. In this | decision lie joy and peace and the glory of creation. Offer the Holy |
| Tx:9.72 | is self-attack. It cannot be anything else. Arising from your own | decision not to be what you are, it is an attack on your |
| Tx:9.73 | this makes of your peace of mind, you could not make such an insane | decision. You make it only because you still believe that it can get |
| Tx:9.73 | have not considered what it must be. Yet the logical outcome of your | decision is perfectly clear if you will look at it. By deciding |
| Tx:10.1 | Nothing alive is fatherless, for life is creation. Therefore, your | decision is always an answer to the question, “Who is my father?” And |
| Tx:11.34 | do have control over your mind since the mind is the mechanism of | decision. If you will recognize that all attack which you perceive is |
| Tx:11.54 | will to do so, and therefore you can decide otherwise. As it was my | decision, so is it yours. |
| Tx:11.69 | the witnesses for opposition are true, for they attest only to your | decision about reality, returning to you the message you gave them. |
| Tx:11.70 | The power of | decision is your one remaining freedom as a prisoner of this world. |
| Tx:11.70 | the power to give something else within yourself. It was only this | decision that determined what you found, for it was the decision of |
| Tx:11.70 | only this decision that determined what you found, for it was the | decision of what you sought. |
| Tx:11.72 | decide, so will you see. And all that you see but witnesses to your | decision. |
| Tx:12.28 | in the present in retaliation for a past that is no more. And this | decision is one of future pain. Unless you learn that past pain is |
| Tx:13.49 | perceive the need for this if you will realize that to deny is the | decision not to know. The logic of the world must therefore lead to |
| Tx:13.68 | Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy Spirit the | decision for guiltlessness. The power of decision is all that is |
| Tx:13.68 | guilt; the Holy Spirit the decision for guiltlessness. The power of | decision is all that is yours. What you can decide between is fixed |
| Tx:13.73 | make decisions for yourself, you are thinking destructively, and the | decision will be wrong. It will hurt you because of the concept of |
| Tx:13.73 | decision will be wrong. It will hurt you because of the concept of | decision which led to it. It is not true that you can make decisions |
| Tx:13.73 | of God's Son can be separate or isolated in its effects. Every | decision is made for the whole Sonship, directed in and out and |
| Tx:13.76 | Would you deny the truth of God's | decision and place your pitiful appraisal of yourself in place of His |
| Tx:13.77 | it is. Only His wisdom is capable of guiding you to follow it. Every | decision you undertake alone but signifies that you would define what |
| Tx:13.77 | protector of your innocence, which sets you free. And it is His | decision to undo everything that would obscure your innocence from |
| Tx:13.78 | and will decide against your peace as surely as you made the wrong | decision in ever thinking that salvation lay in you alone. Salvation |
| Tx:13.78 | you. He has not forgotten it. Forget Him not, and He will make every | decision for you, for your salvation, and the peace of God in you. |
| Tx:13.80 | all that you cannot know when all knowledge lies behind every | decision which the Holy Spirit makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and |
| Tx:13.81 | and with love for everyone who will be touched in any way by the | decision. And everyone will be. Would you take unto yourself the sole |
| Tx:14.20 | All this, and nothing else, would He separate from you. The power of | decision, which you made in place of the power of creation, He would |
| Tx:14.38 | it? The making of time to take the place of timelessness lay in the | decision to be not as you were. Thus, truth was made past, and the |
| Tx:15.24 | You who have sought and found littleness, remember this: Every | decision which you make stems from what you think you are and |
| Tx:15.26 | be asked you by the Holy Spirit in you every time you make a | decision. For every decision you make does answer this and invites |
| Tx:15.26 | by the Holy Spirit in you every time you make a decision. For every | decision you make does answer this and invites sorrow or joy |
| Tx:15.27 | to the ego cannot make little whom God has joined with Him. Every | decision you make is for Heaven or for hell and will bring you |
| Tx:15.37 | His plan, which you must fulfill if you would join with me, by your | decision to join in any plan but His. I call you to fulfill your holy |
| Tx:15.95 | or hostage to God. This is the choice you think you have, and the | decision which you believe that you must make. |
| Tx:15.100 | tried many compromises in the attempt to avoid recognizing the one | decision which must be made. And yet it is the recognition of the |
| Tx:15.100 | decision which must be made. And yet it is the recognition of the | decision just as it is that makes the decision so easy! Salvation is |
| Tx:15.100 | it is the recognition of the decision just as it is that makes the | decision so easy! Salvation is simple, being of God and therefore |
| Tx:16.34 | does not matter. Where one choice is as dangerous as the other, the | decision must be one of despair. |
| Tx:16.56 | Remember this and you will have no difficulty in perceiving the | decision as just what it is and nothing more. |
| Tx:16.57 | cannot know yourself, who shares its meaning. Separation is only the | decision not to know yourself. Its whole thought system is a |
| Tx:16.57 | you correction and complete escape from all its consequences. The | decision whether or not to listen to this course and follow it is but |
| Tx:16.58 | are totally unreal. This year is thus the time to make the easiest | decision that ever confronted you and also the only one. You will |
| Tx:16.58 | and nothing at all is here. It is impossible not to make the natural | decision as this is realized. |
| Tx:18.40 | Forget not that it has been your | decision to make everything that is natural and easy for you |
| Tx:19.106 | that we might meet here in this holy place and make the same | decision. |
| Tx:19.109 | Nor is it given anything in hell or Heaven to interfere with his | decision. |
| Tx:21.17 | the happenings that come to him were not his choice. His power of | decision is the determiner of every situation in which he seems to |
| Tx:21.17 | you decided sin was your goal. Be happy, and you gave the power of | decision to Him Who must decide for God for you. This is the little |
| Tx:21.36 | another point of view be given them. The miracles which follow this | decision are also born of faith. For all who choose to look away from |
| Tx:21.77 | be the one you chose to be protected from attack. And what is this | decision but the choice whether to see him through the body's eyes or |
| Tx:21.77 | body's eyes or let him be revealed to you through vision? How this | decision leads to its effects is not your problem. But what you want |
| Tx:21.80 | This is your one | decision; this the condition for what occurs. It is irrelevant to how |
| Tx:21.83 | it be necessary they be asked so often, if they had? Until the last | decision has been made, the answer is both “yes” and “no.” For you |
| Tx:22.21 | Not both, but one. There is no point in trying to avoid this one | decision. It must be made. Faith and belief can fall to either side, |
| Tx:22.25 | Behold the great projection, but look on it with the | decision that it must be healed and not with fear. Nothing you made |
| Tx:22.38 | can no longer serve. No one who reaches this far can make the wrong | decision, but he can delay. And there is no part of the journey that |

| Tx:24.2 | No belief is neutral. Every one has the power to dictate each | decision you make. For a decision is a conclusion based on everything |
| Tx:24.2 | Every one has the power to dictate each decision you make. For a | decision is a conclusion based on everything that you believe. It is |

| Tx:24.4 | decide to leave it there. The secret enemies of peace, your least | decision to choose attack instead of love, unrecognized and swift to |
| Tx:24.8 | Can love have meaning where the goal is triumph? And what | decision can be made for this that will not hurt you? Your brother is |
| Tx:24.55 | and through time which seems to have no end until the truth be your | decision. For eternity is not regained by still one more denial of |
| Tx:25.6 | and satisfied. It chooses where you think your safety lies, at your | decision. It reveals yourself to you as you would have you be. And |
| Tx:25.52 | it differently nor twist it into something it is not. For only this | decision can you make. The rest is up to God and not to you. |
| Tx:26.21 | perception—it has no meaning and does not exist. This is not your | decision. It is but a simple statement of a simple fact. But in this |
| Tx:28.29 | mind agrees that they are separate. And thus it is their joint | decision to be sick. If you withhold agreement and accept the part |
| Tx:30.4 | Today I will make no | decision by myself. |
| Tx:30.8 | If I make no | decision by myself, This is the day that will be given me. |
| Tx:30.14 | by yourself the rules which promise you a happy day. Yet this | decision still can be undone by simple methods which you can accept. |
| Tx:30.29 | not to make decisions by yourself. This seems to be a real | decision in itself. And yet, you cannot make decisions by yourself. |
| Tx:30.32 | be wholly shared. For they have understood the basic law that makes | decision powerful and gives it all effects that it will ever have. It |
| Tx:30.32 | have. It needs but two. These two are joined before there can be a | decision. Let this be the one reminder that you keep in mind, and you |
| Tx:30.32 | it yourself. Your judgment has been lifted from the world by your | decision for a happy day. And as you have received, so must you give. |
| Tx:30.37 | is healed. And no one walks upon the earth but must depend on your | decision, that he learn death has no power over him because he shares |
| Tx:31.11 | What is temptation but a wish to make the wrong | decision on what you would learn and have an outcome that you do not |
| Tx:31.14 | you are. For there are steps in its relinquishment. The first is a | decision that you make. But afterwards the truth is given you. You |
| Tx:31.37 | For while he sees a choice where there is none, what power of | decision can he use? The great release of power must begin with |
| Tx:31.37 | power must begin with learning where it really has a use. And what | decision has power if it be applied in situations without choice? |
| Tx:31.40 | again. This course attempts to teach no more than that the power of | decision cannot lie in choosing different forms of what is still the |
| Tx:31.55 | from the first is that you somehow entered in the choice by your | decision. But this gain is paid in almost equal loss, for now you |
| W1:20.3 | Your | decision to see is all that vision requires. What you want is yours. |
| W1:53.5 | perfection of creation is my home? Let me remember the power of my | decision and recognize where I really abide. |
| W1:64.6 | Each one will lead to happiness or unhappiness. Can such a simple | decision really be difficult to make? Let not the form of the |
| W1:64.6 | simple decision really be difficult to make? Let not the form of the | decision deceive you. Complexity of form does not imply complexity of |
| W1:64.6 | form does not imply complexity of content. It is impossible that any | decision on earth can have a content different from just this one |
| W1:68.1 | you are. To hold a grievance is to see yourself as a body. It is the | decision to let the ego rule your mind and to condemn the body to |
| W1:70.7 | be a good time to lay aside for each of them and adhere to your own | decision as closely as possible. |
| W1:78.1 | Perhaps it is not yet quite clear to you that each | decision that you make is one between a grievance and a miracle. Each |
| W1:88.2 | I merely choose to recognize what is already here. Salvation is a | decision made already. Attack and grievances are not there to choose. |
| W1:129.11 | at last, and we are grateful that the choice is made. Remember your | decision hourly, and take a moment to confirm your choice by laying |
| W1:130.5 | But one remains. They are the range of choice beyond which your | decision cannot go. The real and the unreal are all there is to |
| W1:133.13 | but a screen of smoke which hides the very simple fact that no | decision can be difficult. |
| W1:136.5 | have forgot can be remembered, given willingness to reconsider the | decision which is doubly shielded by oblivion. Your not remembering |
| W1:136.5 | shielded by oblivion. Your not remembering is but the sign that this | decision still remains in force as far as your desires are concerned. |
| W1:136.7 | again. And yet you have forgotten that they stand but for your own | decision of what should be real, to take the place of what is real. |
| W1:136.8 | Sickness is a | decision. It is not a thing that happens to you quite unsought, which |
| W1:136.10 | hell, and God's design for the salvation of His Son opposed by a | decision stronger than His Will. His Son is dust, the Father |
| W1:137.3 | In sickness must he be apart and separate. But healing is his own | decision to be one again and to accept his Self with all its parts |
| W1:138.3 | Choice is the obvious escape from what appears as opposites. | Decision lets one of conflicting goals become the aim of effort and |
| W1:138.3 | goals become the aim of effort and expenditure of time. Without | decision, time is but a waste and effort dissipated. It is spent for |
| W1:138.11 | we wake and spend five minutes making sure that we have made the one | decision that is sane. We recognize we make a conscious choice |
| W1:138.12 | And now we give the last five minutes of our waking day to the | decision with which we awoke. As every hour passed, we have declared |
| W1:138.13 | Heaven is the | decision I must make. I make it now and will not change my mind, |
| W1:139.1 | Here is the end of choice. For here we come to a | decision to accept ourselves as God created us. And what is choice |
| W1:149.2 | [138] Heaven is the | decision I must make. |
| W1:152.1 | No one can suffer loss unless it be his own | decision. No one suffers pain except his choice elects this state for |
| W1:152.8 | humble and accept what we have made as what it is. The power of | decision is our own. Decide but to accept your rightful place as |
| W1:152.10 | us immaculate, like to Himself in power and in love. The power of | decision is our own. And we accept of Him that which we are and |
| W1:152.13 | The power of | decision is my own. This day I will accept myself as what my Father's |
| W1:154.1 | judge ourselves, nor need we do so. These are but attempts to hold | decision off, and to delay commitment to our function. It is not our |
| W1:171.3 | [152] The power of | decision is my own. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W2:238.1 | You placed Your Son's salvation in my hands and let it rest on my | decision. I must be beloved of You indeed. And I must be steadfast in |
| W2:282.1 | this today, salvation would be reached for all the world. This the | decision not to be insane and to accept myself as God Himself, my |
| M:2.5 | learner becomes a teacher of God himself, for he has made the one | decision that gave his teacher to him. He has seen in another person |
| M:3.3 | seems to begin to change his mind about the world with the single | decision, and then learns more and more about the new direction as he |
| M:5.2 | pay for something of greater worth. For sickness is an election, a | decision. It is the choice of weakness in the mistaken conviction |
| M:5.4 | body. If sickness is but a faulty problem-solving approach, it is a | decision. And if it is a decision, it is the mind and not the body |
| M:5.4 | a faulty problem-solving approach, it is a decision. And if it is a | decision, it is the mind and not the body that makes it. The |
| M:5.5 | The acceptance of sickness as a | decision of the mind for a purpose for which it would use the body is |
| M:12.5 | is done, it is laid by, and that is all. The mind makes this | decision, as it makes all decisions which are responsible for the |
| M:12.5 | for the body's condition. Yet the teacher of God does not make this | decision alone. To do that would be to give the body another purpose |
| M:13.3 | God's Word could this be possible. For self-condemnation is a | decision about identity, and no one doubts what he believes he is. He |
| M:13.8 | God, do not forget the meaning of sacrifice, and remember what each | decision you make must mean in terms of cost. Decide for God, and |
| M:21.3 | illusions in his heart, all this becomes his own. The power of his | decision offers it to him, as he requests. Herein lie hell and |
| M:22.4 | Certainly sickness does not appear to be a | decision. Nor would anyone actually believe he wants to be sick. |

| Tx:15.28 | and the belief that you can be content with littleness are the | decisions you have made about yourself. The power and the glory that |
| Tx:16.22 | teaching. The ego's teaching produces immediate results because its | decisions are immediately accepted as your choice. And this |
| Tx:21.2 | God to set him free. There is no choice that lies between these two | decisions. And you will see the witness to the choice you made and |
| Tx:21.81 | It is the same as are the other three except in time. The others are | decisions which can be made and then unmade and made again. But truth |
| Tx:21.82 | By answering the final question “yes,” you add sincerity to the | decisions you have already made to all the rest. For only then have |
| Tx:24.2 | has no alternative. The truth arises from what He knows. And your | decisions come from your beliefs as certainly as all creation rose in |
| Tx:24.4 | not. And many senseless outcomes have been reached, and meaningless | decisions have been made and kept hidden to become beliefs, now given |
| Tx:24.4 | hidden to become beliefs, now given power to direct all subsequent | decisions. Mistake you not the power of these hidden warriors to |
| Tx:24.7 | Specialness is the great dictator of the wrong | decisions. Here is the grand illusion of what you are and what your |
| Tx:26.18 | presence and bring complexity where oneness is? The truth makes no | decisions, for there is nothing to decide between. And only if there |
| Tx:30.2 | Decisions are continuous. You do not always know when you are making | |
| Tx:30.28 | its undoing. Let us, then, consider once again the very first of the | decisions which are offered here. |
| Tx:30.29 | We said you can begin a happy day with the determination not to make | decisions by yourself. This seems to be a real decision in itself. |
| Tx:30.29 | This seems to be a real decision in itself. And yet, you cannot make | decisions by yourself. The only question really is with what you |
| Tx:30.29 | coercion but a simple statement of a simple fact. You will not make | decisions by yourself whatever you decide. For they are made with |
| Tx:30.31 | form of union, be it with a dream of judgment or the Voice for God. | Decisions cause results because they are not made in isolation. They |
| W1:64.6 | Prepare yourself in advance for all the | decisions you will make today by remembering that they are really |
| W1:R3.6 | Give it faith that it will use them wisely, being helped in its | decisions by the One Who gave the thoughts to you. What can you trust |
| W1:133.17 | collect some needless burdens or believe you see some difficult | decisions facing you, be quick to answer with this simple thought: |
| W1:138.4 | be a choice. Do not confuse yourself with all the doubts that myriad | decisions would induce. You make but one. And when that one is made, |
| W1:138.5 | learning how to reach them, what they are, and what they offer you. | Decisions are the outcome of your learning, for they rest on what you |
| W1:138.6 | definitive, the prototype of all the rest, the one which settles all | decisions. If you could decide the rest, this one remains unsolved. |
| W1:138.6 | when you solve this one, the others are resolved with it, for all | decisions but conceal this one by taking different forms. Here is the |
| W1:138.8 | to be safe, and magically armored against truth. And these | decisions are made unaware to keep them safely undisturbed, apart |
| W2:WIC.2 | His of yours. He is the part in which God's Answer lies, where all | decisions are already made and dreams are over. He remains untouched |
| M:4.20 | Even so, the teacher of God is willing to reconsider all his past | decisions if they are causing pain to anyone. Patience is natural to |
| M:5.4 | one must first recognize certain facts. First, it is obvious that | decisions are of the mind, not of the body. If sickness is but a |
| M:9.2 | one lesson with increasing thoroughness. He does not make his own | decisions; he asks his Teacher for His answer, and it is this he |
| M:12.5 | by, and that is all. The mind makes this decision, as it makes all | decisions which are responsible for the body's condition. Yet the |
| M:29.2 | the questions to Him is yours. Would you want to be responsible for | decisions about which you understand so little? Be glad you have a |
| M:29.3 | There is another advantage—and a very important one—in referring | decisions to the Holy Spirit with increasing frequency. Perhaps you |
| M:29.4 | it. But the Teacher Who knows the truth has not forgotten it. His | decisions bring benefit to all, being wholly devoid of attack. And |
declaration (9) | ||
| Tx:4.44 | thing to use as a kind of a prayer in moments of temptation. It is a | Declaration of Independence. You will find it very helpful if you |
| Tx:4.54 | In your own unconscious, deeply repressed by the ego, is the | declaration of your release. God has given you everything. This is |
| W1:31.1 | Today's idea is the introduction to your | declaration of release. Again, the idea should be applied to both the |
| W1:31.4 | as possible during the day. Remind yourself that you are making a | declaration of independence in the name of your own freedom. And in |
| W1:31.5 | useful one to use as a response to any form of temptation. It is a | declaration that you will not yield to it and put yourself in bondage. |
| W1:50.3 | and in sure confidence. Tell yourself this often today. It is a | declaration of release from the belief in idols. It is your |
| W1:71.3 | Each grievance you hold is a | declaration and an assertion in which you believe that says, “If this |

| W1:98.1 | vacillate between the two but take a firm position with the one. We | dedicate ourselves to truth today and to salvation as God planned it |
| W1:139.10 | Five minutes in the morning and at night we will devote to | dedicate our minds to our assignment for today. We start with this |
| W2:FL.3 | And to this purpose let us | dedicate our minds, directing all our thoughts to serve the function |
dedicated (18) | ||
| Tx:14.38 | be not as you were. Thus, truth was made past, and the present was | dedicated to illusion. And the past, too, was changed and interposed |
| Tx:15.68 | unrewarding chain of special relationships, forged out of anger and | dedicated to but one insane belief—that the more anger you invest |
| Tx:15.73 | In their angry alliances, born of the fear of loneliness and yet | dedicated to the continuance of loneliness, they seek relief from |
| Tx:17.69 | faith in anyone to fulfill, and perfectly, his part in any situation | dedicated in advance to truth, your dedication is divided. And so you |
| Tx:19.1 | We said before that when a situation has been | dedicated wholly to truth, peace is inevitable. Its attainment is the |
| Tx:19.1 | that peace without faith will never be attained, for what is wholly | dedicated to truth as its only goal is brought to truth by faith. |
| Tx:19.5 | obstacles that seem to rise between them. Faithlessness is wholly | dedicated to illusions; faith wholly to truth. Partial dedication is |
| Tx:19.75 | and believe not the impossible is true. Forget not that the ego has | dedicated the body to the goal of sin and places in it all its faith |
| Tx:19.76 | It is not given to the ego's disciples to realize that they have | dedicated themselves to death. Freedom is offered them, but they have |
| Tx:19.80 | Where can such opposition lie but in the sick minds of the insane, | dedicated to madness and set against the peace of Heaven? One thing |
| Tx:19.81 | And what is the black-draped body they would bury? A body which they | dedicated to death, a symbol of corruption, a sacrifice to sin, |
| Tx:19.83 | You who are | dedicated to the incorruptible have been given through your |
| Tx:20.50 | and kept apart from those who worship them. This is the temple | dedicated to no relationships and no return. Here is the “mystery” of |
| Tx:21.57 | The part of mind where reason lies was | dedicated by your will in union with your Father's to the undoing of |
| Tx:22.52 | freedom. Yet freedom of the body has no meaning, and so the mind is | dedicated to serve illusions. This is a situation so contradictory |
| W1:45.11 | only one thing is necessary—approach it as you would an altar | dedicated in Heaven itself to God the Father and God the Son. For |
| W1:R2.4 | side-tracked into detours, illusions, and thoughts of death. You are | dedicated to salvation. Be determined each day not to leave your |
| M:23.6 | the limitations we have laid on us. No one who has become a true and | dedicated teacher of God forgets his brothers. Yet what he can offer |
dedication (23) | ||
| Tx:17.69 | his part in any situation dedicated in advance to truth, your | dedication is divided. And so you have been faithless to each other |
| Tx:19.1 | Its attainment is the criterion by which the wholeness of the | dedication can be safely assumed. Yet we also said that peace without |
| Tx:19.1 | must be involved in it, or else your faith is limited and your | dedication incomplete. |
| Tx:19.5 | is wholly dedicated to illusions; faith wholly to truth. Partial | dedication is impossible. Truth is the absence of illusion; illusion |
| Tx:19.7 | and illusion in the mind, where both must be, are recognized as | dedication to illusion and given up when brought to truth and seen as |
| Tx:19.16 | Let then your | dedication be to the eternal and learn how not to interfere with it |
| Tx:19.46 | you, it seemed to have a mighty purpose; the fixed and unchangeable | dedication to sin and its results. Now it is aimless, wandering |
| Tx:19.77 | Holy Spirit entered, it is given to release and be released from the | dedication to death. For it was offered you, and you accepted. Yet |
| Tx:19.78 | living? They but walk past, and it is gone. But what of those whose | dedication it is not to live—the black-draped “sinners,” the ego's |
| Tx:19.79 | to you who chose His Will as yours? What is death to you? Your | dedication is not to death nor to its master. When you accepted the |
| Tx:19.81 | the sepulcher of separation—all are part of your unrecognized | dedication to death. The glitter of guilt you laid upon the body |
| Tx:19.82 | You have another | dedication which would keep the body incorruptible and perfect as |
| Tx:19.92 | upheld by the belief in death and protected by its attraction. The | dedication to death and to its sovereignty is but the solemn vow, the |
| Tx:24.60 | a burden wearisome and tedious, too heavy to be borne. Yet to the | dedication to the truth as God established it no sacrifice is asked, |
| Tx:28.3 | skills without an application. They await their use. They have no | dedication and no aim. |
| Tx:30.2 | wake, will put you well ahead. And if you find resistance strong and | dedication weak, you are not ready. Do not fight yourself. But think |
| W1:76.12 | there are no laws but God's. Then we will tell ourselves as a | dedication with which the practice period concludes: |
| W1:76.14 | We will repeat this | dedication as often as possible today—at least four or five times |
| W1:98.1 | Today is a day of special | dedication. We take a stand on but one side today. We side with truth |
| W1:98.7 | join with yours and make each repetition of today's idea a total | dedication, made in faith as perfect and as sure as His in you. |
| W1:139.13 | Creator and His oneness with all aspects of creation, we repeat our | dedication to our cause today each hour, as we lay aside all thoughts |
| W1:I2.1 | scattered goals blend into one intent. You are not asked for total | dedication all the time, as yet. But you are asked to practice now in |
| M:26.3 | that this endure. It can, perhaps, be won after much devotion and | dedication and then be maintained for most of the time on earth. But |
dedications (1) | ||
| W1:R2.4 | Regard these practice periods as | dedications to the way, the truth, and the life. Refuse to be |
deductive (1) | ||
| Tx:3.18 | true. Man is released from all errors if he believes in this. The | deductive approach to teaching accepts the generalization which is |
deeds (2) | ||
| Tx:3.15 | His Divine Mind does not create that way. He does not hold the evil | deeds of a man even against himself. Is it likely, then, that He |
| Tx:27.83 | within its dream. You have no power to make the body stop its evil | deeds because you did not make it and cannot control its actions or |
deem (1) | ||
| Tx:24.60 | more difficult. The “sacrifice” of self you understand, nor do you | deem this cost too heavy. But a tiny willingness, a nod to God, a |
deems (4) | ||
| Tx:20.17 | mediator of all relationships, making whatever adjustments it | deems necessary and interposing them between those who would meet to |
| Tx:21.41 | would not be fearful to admit. Fear in association with sin the ego | deems quite appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no fear to let |
| W1:186.4 | that He knows our strengths, our wisdom, and our holiness. And if He | deems us worthy, so we are. It is but arrogance that judges otherwise. |
| M:6.3 | a gift and then remains with it to be sure it is used as the giver | deems appropriate? Such is not giving but imprisoning. |
deep (66) | ||
| Tx:1.70 | follow Him. All shallow roots must be uprooted because they are not | deep enough to sustain you. The illusion that shallow roots can be |
| Tx:2.13 | is seen in dreams seems to be very real. The Bible mentions that “a | deep sleep fell upon Adam,” and nowhere is there any reference to his |
| Tx:3.63 | You have no idea of the tremendous release and | deep peace that comes from meeting yourselves and your brothers |
| Tx:11.11 | Fear is a symptom of your | deep sense of loss. If when you perceive it in others you learn to |
| Tx:13.37 | no variation. There is no interruption. There is a sense of peace so | deep that no dream in this world has ever brought even a dim |
| Tx:13.42 | believe you want it broken, and this belief does interfere with the | deep peace in which the sweet and constant communication which God |
| Tx:15.24 | There is a | deep responsibility you owe yourself, and one which you must learn to |
| Tx:16.50 | more than an “attractive” form of fear in which the guilt is buried | deep and rises in the form of “love.” |
| Tx:18.26 | the journey into darkness has been long and cruel, and you have gone | deep into it. A little flicker of your eyelids, closed so long, has |

| Tx:18.77 | with love is the glorious whole, which offers all its happiness and | deep content to every part. The little aspect which you think you set |
| Tx:18.79 | life springs up everywhere! The desert becomes a garden, green and | deep and quiet, offering rest to those who lost their way and wander |
| Tx:19.37 | As this peace extends from | deep inside yourselves to embrace all the Sonship and give it rest, |
| Tx:19.37 | way in which He will bring means and goal in line. The peace He laid | deep within both of you] will quietly extend to every aspect of your |
| Tx:19.66 | proclaims the truth, and love looks on itself. Salvation flows from | deep within the home you offered to my Father and to me. And we are |
| Tx:19.96 | your will. For what attracts you from beyond the veil is also | deep within you, unseparated from it and completely one. |
| Tx:23.54 | anything that offers you a perfect calmness and a sense of love so | deep and quiet that no touch of doubt can ever mar your certainty? |
| Tx:24.63 | and care, the strong protection, the thought by day and night, the | deep concern, the powerful conviction this is you belong to him. |
| Tx:25.16 | Who hangs an empty frame upon a wall and stands before it, | deep in reverence, as if a masterpiece were there to see? Yet if you |
| Tx:25.68 | They do believe that Heaven is hell and are afraid of love. And | deep suspicion and the chill of fear comes over them when they are |
| Tx:26.87 | and not your just deserts. Yet it is you who ask this of yourself in | deep injustice to the Son of God. You have no enemy except yourself, |
| Tx:27.76 | and kindness offered you. And let no pain disturb your dream of | deep appreciation for his gifts to you. |
| Tx:29.32 | The changelessness of Heaven is in you, so | deep within that nothing in this world but passes by, unnoticed and |
| Tx:29.51 | of His love for you, and do not seek to drown His Voice in chants of | deep despair to idols of yourself. Seek not outside your Father for |
| Tx:29.68 | with the holiness which never left the altar which abides forever | deep within the Son of God. And when he hears this song again, he |
| Tx:29.69 | you feel fear in any form—and you are fearful if you do not feel a | deep content, a certainty of help, a calm assurance Heaven goes with |
| Tx:29.69 | save you lie the guilt and pain of self-betrayal and uncertainty, so | deep and bitter that the dream cannot conceal completely all your |
| Tx:31.56 | consequence. So it can learn that everything it thinks reflects the | deep confusion that it feels about how it was made and what it is. |
| Tx:31.73 | and undone. And thus it dooms you to a bitter sense of | deep depression and futility. Yet it need not be fixed unless you |
| W1:41.1 | is an inevitable consequence of separation. So are anxiety, worry, a | deep sense of helplessness, misery, suffering, and intense fear of |
| W1:41.2 | foolishness it is, despite the serious and tragic forms it may take. | Deep within you is everything that is perfect, ready to radiate |
| W1:41.4 | you do not believe all this. How could you, when the truth is hidden | deep within under a heavy cloud of insane thoughts, dense and |
| W1:47.8 | You will recognize that you have reached it if you feel a sense of | deep peace, however briefly. Let go all the trivial things that churn |
| W1:49.4 | Listen in | deep silence. Be very still, and open your mind. Go past all the |
| W1:49.4 | your real thoughts and obscure your eternal link with God. Sink | deep into the peace that waits for you beyond the frantic, riotous |
| W1:50.4 | twice today, morning and evening, let the idea for today sink | deep into your consciousness. Repeat it, think about it, let related |
| W1:57.6 | with my brothers, I begin to understand that this peace comes from | deep within myself. The world I look upon has taken on the light of |
| W1:71.6 | in all ways. The result can only bring confusion, misery, and a | deep sense of failure and despair. |
| W1:74.11 | is easily detected. If you are succeeding, you will feel a | deep sense of joy and an increased alertness rather than a feeling of |
| W1:80.6 | today that your problems have been solved. Repeat the idea with | deep conviction as frequently as possible. And be particularly sure |
| W1:98.7 | He will give the words you use in practicing today's idea the | deep conviction and the certainty you lack. His words will join with |
| W1:100.9 | For this you came. Let this one be the day that you succeed! Look | deep within you, undismayed by all the little thoughts and foolish |
| W1:102.6 | Then seek this function | deep within your mind, for it is there, awaiting but your choice. You |
| W1:107.13 | you gently to the truth which will envelop you and give you peace so | deep and tranquil that you will return to the familiar world |
| W1:110.9 | to be the Son of God instead of what He is be worshiped not today. | Deep in your mind the holy Christ in you is waiting your |
| W1:122.1 | that cannot be disturbed, a gentleness that never can be hurt, a | deep, abiding comfort, and a rest so perfect it can never be upset? |
| W1:122.8 | it rises up to greet your open eyes and fill your heart with | deep tranquility as ancient truths, forever newly born, arise in your |
| W1:123.8 | and you will understand how lovingly He holds you in His Mind, how | deep and limitless His care for you, how perfect is His gratitude to |
| W1:124.11 | His return will be a sense of love you cannot understand, a joy too | deep for you to comprehend, a sight too holy for the body's eyes to |
| W1:125.1 | Your Father wills you hear His Word today. He calls to you from | deep within your mind where He abides. Hear Him today. No peace is |
| W1:133.11 | because he looks upon the tarnished as his own—the rust a sign of | deep unworthiness within himself. He who would still preserve the |
| W1:134.6 | is sin's unreality that makes forgiveness natural and wholly sane, a | deep relief to those who offer it; a quiet blessing where it is |
| W1:134.18 | to sense a lifting up, a lightening of weight across your chest, a | deep and certain feeling of relief. The time remaining should be |
| W1:135.5 | What but the body has such frailty that constant care and watchful, | deep concern are needful to protect its little life? What but the |
| W1:140.14 | will feel salvation cover us with soft protection and with peace so | deep that no illusion can disturb our minds nor offer proof to us |
| W1:166.9 | He has not wholly been outwitted by your plan to keep His Son in | deep oblivion and go the way you chose without your Self. |
| W1:185.10 | as for yourself you ask but this when you make this request with | deep sincerity. For thus you reach to what they really want and join |
| W1:R6.5 | we practice for the day, no form of exercise is urged except a | deep relinquishment of everything that clutters up the mind and makes |
| W2:I.11 | will intersperse our daily lessons and the periods of wordless, | deep experience which should come afterwards. These special thoughts |
| W2:221.1 | You alone can give. I come in silence. In the quiet of my heart, the | deep recesses of my mind, I wait and listen for Your Voice. My |
| W2:257.1 | contradicting goals and serve them well. Nor can he function without | deep distress and great depression. Let us therefore be determined to |
| W2:305.1 | Who uses but Christ's vision finds a peace so | deep and quiet, undisturbable and wholly changeless that the world |
| W2:341.1 | Son is holy. I am he on whom You smile in love and tenderness so | deep and dear and still the universe smiles back on You and shares |

| Tx:7.4 | The ego | demands reciprocal rights because it is competitive rather than |
| Tx:8.1 | You are hampered in your progress by your | demands to know what you do not know. This is actually a way of |
| Tx:8.97 | many forms, the category including all doctrines which hold that God | demands sacrifices of any kind. Either basic type of insane decision |
| Tx:9.95 | denial of God is the ego's religion. The god of sickness obviously | demands the denial of health, because health is in direct opposition |
| Tx:9.95 | yourself in order to be sick. This is the offering which your god | demands because, having made him out of your insanity, he is an |
| Tx:10.63 | for he will obey only the god he accepts. The god of the crucifixion | demands that he crucify, and his worshipers obey. In his name they |
| Tx:10.63 | of God is born of sacrifice and pain. The God of the resurrection | demands nothing, for He does not will to take away. He does not |

| Tx:13.11 | as is the ego's law. Fidelity unto this law lets no light in, for it | demands fidelity to darkness and forbids awakening. The ego's laws |

| Tx:15.71 | sacrifice. And for this sacrifice, which he demanded of himself, he | demands the other accept the guilt and sacrifice himself as well. |
| Tx:15.72 | bodies are together. It is always physical closeness that the ego | demands, and it does not object where the mind goes or what it |
| Tx:15.88 | give increase. Limits are demanded by the ego, representing its | demands to make little and ineffectual. Limit your vision of a |
| Tx:15.98 | but a cover for the one idea that hides behind them all—that love | demands sacrifice and is therefore inseparable from attack and fear. |
| Tx:15.98 | God become to you, and how great a sacrifice do you believe His love | demands! For total love would demand total sacrifice. And so the ego |
| Tx:15.99 | You think that everyone outside yourself | demands your sacrifice, but you do not see that only you demand |
| Tx:19.50 | languages. What fear would feed upon, love overlooks. What fear | demands, love cannot even see. |

| Tx:21.70 | sin. Helplessness is sin's condition—the one requirement that it | demands to be believed. Only the helpless could believe in it. |
| Tx:23.29 | that you may have that which belongs to you. His treachery | demands his death that you may live. And you attack only in self |
| Tx:24.10 | other comes from each unrecognized belief in specialness. For each | demands the other bow to it against his will. And God Himself must |
| Tx:24.24 | the body as the prison-house which keeps His Son from Him. For it | demands a special place God cannot enter and a hiding-place where |
| Tx:24.62 | His wish is law unto him, and he obeys. Nothing his specialness | demands does he withhold. Nothing it needs does he deny to what he |
| Tx:25.62 | must lose to madness because your aims can not be reconciled. Death | demands life, but life is not maintained at any cost. No one can |
| Tx:25.66 | has. For that is vengeance in whatever form it takes. Justice | demands no sacrifice, for any sacrifice is made that sin may be |
| Tx:25.80 | must be true because He asks no sacrifice of anyone. An answer which | demands the slightest loss to anyone has not resolved the problem but |
| Tx:26.4 | his Father? And his Father be without His Son? Yet every sacrifice | demands that they be separate and without the other. The memory of |
| Tx:26.61 | than full salvation and escape from guilt. For otherwise he still | demands that he must make some sacrifice and thus denies that |
| Tx:29.7 | It is not love that asks a sacrifice. But fear | demands the sacrifice of love, for in love's presence fear cannot |
| Tx:30.57 | for their “gifts” are not held dear. No rules are idly set, and no | demands are made of anyone or anything to twist and fit into the |

| W1:24.8 | you will quickly recognize that you are making a large number of | demands of the situation which have nothing to do with it. You will |

| W1:135.26 | from release. Heaven asks nothing. It is hell that makes extravagant | demands for sacrifice. You give up nothing in these times today when |
| W1:138.11 | terror now, for what was made enormous, vengeful, pitiless with hate | demands obscurity for fear to be invested there. Now it is recognized |
| W1:170.7 | Harsh punishment is meted out relentlessly to those who ask if the | demands are sensible or even sane. It is their enemies who are |
| W1:189.8 | in joyful and immediate response. Ask and receive. But do not make | demands nor point the road to God by which He should appear to you. |

| Tx:4.10 | pointless to refuse to tolerate change because you believe you can | demonstrate that by doing so the separation has not occurred. The |
| Tx:4.80 | miracle-mindedness is unthinkable. That state in itself is enough to | demonstrate that the perception is wrong. |
| Tx:4.89 | Your mission is very simple. You have been chosen to live so as to | demonstrate that you are not an ego. I repeat that I do not choose |
| Tx:6.13 | I elected both for your sake and mine to | demonstrate that the most outrageous assault as judged by the ego did |
| Tx:6.14 | the Holy Spirit is one, and anyone who listens is inevitably led to | demonstrate His way for all. You are not persecuted, nor was I. You |
| Tx:6.21 | myself. Was it likely that I would condemn him when I was ready to | demonstrate that condemnation is impossible? |
| Tx:6.54 | your perfection and proved to you that you were wrong. This would | demonstrate that the perfect were inadequate to bring themselves to |
| Tx:7.102 | That is why you need to | demonstrate the obvious to yourself. It is not obvious to you. You |
| Tx:10.55 | clearly not understandable, but the ego does make every attempt to | demonstrate it, and this it does constantly. Analyzing to attack |
| Tx:10.56 | system transcends its source. Yet reasoning without meaning cannot | demonstrate anything, and those who are convinced by it must be |
| Tx:10.57 | the Father? Accept His Son, and you will remember Him. Nothing can | demonstrate that His Son is unworthy, for nothing can prove that a |
| Tx:10.57 | is, the Father must be. Accept what God does not deny, and He will | demonstrate its truth. The witnesses for God stand in His light and |
| Tx:10.57 | they have beheld God's Son, and in the Presence of Christ they need | demonstrate nothing, for Christ speaks to them of Himself and of His |
| Tx:11.2 | ego-involvement. The whole process represents a clear-cut attempt to | demonstrate your own ability to understand what you perceive. This is |
| Tx:11.9 | enough to escape from it, although the recognition is necessary to | demonstrate the need for escape. The Holy Spirit must still translate |
| Tx:11.44 | Although you have attacked yourself, and very brutally, you will | demonstrate that nothing happened. Therefore, by attacking you have |
| Tx:11.61 | Miracles | demonstrate that learning has occurred under the right guidance, for |
| Tx:13.26 | in your mind to frighten you and show them to you fearfully to | demonstrate what He has saved you from. What He has saved you from is |
| Tx:13.38 | will finally let Him judge the difference for you, allowing Him to | demonstrate which must be true. He has perfect faith in your final |
| Tx:17.14 | not do. The shadow figures are the witnesses you bring with you to | demonstrate he did what he did not. Because you brought them, you |
| Tx:17.64 | of the situation are the witnesses to your lack of faith. They | demonstrate that you did not believe that the situation and the |
| Tx:17.64 | same place. The problem was the lack of faith, and it is this you | demonstrate when you remove it from its source and place it |
| Tx:17.79 | from it. Your release is certain. Give as you have received. And | demonstrate that you have risen far beyond any situation that could |
| Tx:19.3 | occurs, the body becomes its weapon used against this Purpose to | demonstrate the “fact” that separation has occurred. The body thus |
| Tx:27.7 | show how lovely are the witnesses for guilt. Concerns about the body | demonstrate how frail and vulnerable is your life, how easily |
| Tx:27.16 | and yourself. You must attest his sins had no effect on you to | demonstrate they were not real. How else could he be guiltless? And |
| Tx:27.61 | of the world awaits your healing and your happiness, that you may | demonstrate the healing of the world. The holy instant will replace |
| Tx:30.90 | The miracle is means to | demonstrate that all appearances can change because they are |
| Tx:31.5 | from It was yet more real than It. And this has learning sought to | demonstrate, and you have learned what it was made to teach. Now does |
| Tx:31.49 | of his own? Concepts maintain the world. But they cannot be used to | demonstrate the world is real. For all of them are made within the |
| W1:13.2 | own “ideas” there, fearful that the void may otherwise be used to | demonstrate its own unreality. And on this alone it is correct. |
| W1:137.4 | they look upon is false. So healing, never needed by the truth, must | demonstrate that sickness is not real. |

| M:3.3 | of teaching seems to be something different. Perhaps the best way to | demonstrate that these levels cannot exist is simply to say that any |
| M:18.1 | about a magic thought, attacks it, tries to establish its error or | demonstrate its falsity, he is but witnessing to its reality. |

| Tx:1.65 | confusion. That is why the Bible says, “There is no death” and why I | demonstrated that death does not exist. I came to fulfill the law by |
| Tx:3.18 | The Resurrection | demonstrated that nothing can destroy truth. Good can withstand any |
| Tx:3.48 | with knowledge so much as to correct error from the bottom up. I | demonstrated both the powerlessness of the body and the power of the |
| Tx:4.56 | to listen. The fact that you do listen to the voice of your ego is | demonstrated by your attitudes, your feelings, and your behavior. |
| Tx:6.8 | am like you and you are like me, but our fundamental equality can be | demonstrated only through joint decision. You are free to perceive |
| Tx:11.11 | in you, for you have in yourself the means for removing it and have | demonstrated this by giving it. Fear and love are the only emotions |
| Tx:11.61 | learned can be recognized only by its results. Its generalization is | demonstrated as you use it in more and more situations. You will |

| Tx:27.45 | long as it is unattested, it remains without conviction. Only when | demonstrated has it been proved and must compel belief. No one is |

| Tx:4.87 | cannot withstand the conditioning process because the process itself | demonstrates that there is another way. Conditioning by rewards has |
| Tx:6.53 | the central place in your perceived enslavement, a fact which itself | demonstrates that you are not enslaved. |
| Tx:6.55 | commands. To command is to assume inequality, which the Holy Spirit | demonstrates does not exist. Fidelity to premises is a law of mind, |
| Tx:6.62 | cannot heal the mind, then the mind must be stronger. Every miracle | demonstrates this. |

| Tx:27.21 | that he is slave but they are free. The constant pain they suffer | demonstrates that they are free because they hold him bound. And |
| Tx:27.46 | It carries comfort from the place of peace into the battleground and | demonstrates that war has no effects. For all the hurt that war has |

| Tx:30.90 | or suffering in any form because it can so easily be changed. This | demonstrates that it was never real and could not stem from his |
| W1:136.14 | It is this fact which | demonstrates that time is an illusion. For it lets you think what God |

| M:6.1 | to let illusions be brought to truth and keep the illusions. Truth | demonstrates illusions have no value. The teacher of God has seen the |

| Tx:3.18 | darkness. The Atonement is thus the perfect lesson. It is the final | demonstration that all of the other lessons which I taught are true. |
| Tx:6.62 | re-interprets what the ego uses as an argument for separation into a | demonstration against it. If the mind can heal the body but the body |
| Tx:6.81 | because it follows. The very fact that you have accepted that is a | demonstration of your growing awareness that the Holy Spirit will |
| Tx:10.55 | it perceives. And it is this universe which, in turn, becomes its | demonstration of its own reality. |
| Tx:10.57 | is true. What you see of His Son through the eyes of the ego is a | demonstration that His Son does not exist, yet where the Son is, the |
| Tx:17.74 | The holy instant is the shining example, the clear and unequivocal | demonstration of the meaning of every relationship and every |

| Tx:1.94 | free him by ordinary means because he is more consistent in his own | denial of truth. The miracle, however, makes no such distinctions. It |
| Tx:1.97 | of man's creative will must be understood before the real meaning of | denial can be appreciated and relinquished. It is not mere negation. |
| Tx:1.104 | comes from doing God's Will. This is because not doing it is a | denial of self. Denial of error results in projection. Correction of |
| Tx:1.104 | doing God's Will. This is because not doing it is a denial of self. | Denial of error results in projection. Correction of error brings |
| Tx:2.19 | This is the proper use of | denial. It is not used to hide anything but to correct error. It |
| Tx:2.19 | and darkness are the same, it corrects error automatically. True | denial is a powerful protective device. You can and should deny any |
| Tx:2.19 | can and should deny any belief that error can hurt you. This kind of | denial is not a concealment device but a correction device. The |
| Tx:2.22 | Denial of error is a powerful defense of truth. You will note that we | |
| Tx:2.22 | been shifting the emphasis from the negative to the positive use of | denial. As we have already stated, denial is not a purely negative |
| Tx:2.22 | negative to the positive use of denial. As we have already stated, | denial is not a purely negative device; it results in positive |
| Tx:2.22 | a very early thought of your own—“Never underestimate the power of | denial.” In the service of the “right mind,” the denial of error |
| Tx:2.22 | the power of denial.” In the service of the “right mind,” the | denial of error frees the mind and reestablishes the freedom of the |
| Tx:2.23 | False projection arises out of false | denial, not out of its proper use. My own role in the Atonement is |
| Tx:2.23 | use of projection, which can also be yours, is not based on faulty | denial. It does involve, however, the very powerful use of the denial |
| Tx:2.23 | denial. It does involve, however, the very powerful use of the | denial of errors. The miracle worker is one who accepts my kind of |
| Tx:2.23 | denial of errors. The miracle worker is one who accepts my kind of | denial and projection, unites his own inherent abilities to deny and |
| Tx:2.25 | Denial should be directed only to error, and projection should be | |
| Tx:2.56 | Those who do so are engaging in a particularly unworthy form of | denial. The term “unworthy” here implies simply that it is not |
| Tx:2.99 | the separation has occurred, and to deny this is merely to misuse | denial. However, to concentrate on error is merely a further misuse |
| Tx:3.7 | 4. The miracle is always a | denial of this error and an affirmation of the truth. Only |
| Tx:3.70 | ultimately and sometimes by way of very devious routes from the | denial of Authorship. The offense is never to God, but only to those |
| Tx:3.78 | denies His Fatherhood. Never underestimate the power of this | denial. Look at your lives and see what the devil has made. But know |
| Tx:4.49 | made, and what you made does not love you. Being made out of the | denial of the Father, the ego has no allegiance to its own maker. You |
| Tx:7.70 | a blessing to a brother, you will feel deprived. This is because | denial is as total as love. It is as impossible to deny part of the |
| Tx:7.70 | Remember a very early lesson—“Never underestimate the power of | denial.” It has no power in itself, but you can give it the power of |
| Tx:7.71 | is the negative side of the law as it operates in this world. Yet | denial is a defense, and so it is as capable of being used positively |
| Tx:8.10 | be imprisoned, because your will is free. That is why the ego is the | denial of free will. It is never God who coerces you because He |
| Tx:8.100 | for nothing and to ask for it is not a request. It is merely a | denial in the form of a request. The Holy Spirit is not concerned |
| Tx:9.57 | yourself as God created you cannot be arrogance, because it is the | denial of arrogance. To accept your littleness is arrogant, because |
| Tx:9.71 | specifically teaching yourself that you are not what you are. Your | denial of reality precludes the acceptance of God's gift, because you |
| Tx:9.77 | truth about himself, which he is denying. Would you strengthen his | denial of God and thus lose sight of yourself? Or would you remind |
| Tx:9.80 | therefore does not know he has it. The acceptance of peace is the | denial of illusion, and sickness is an illusion. Yet every Son of God |
| Tx:9.93 | in this sense the wages of sin is death. The sense is very literal; | denial of life perceives its opposite, as all forms of denial replace |
| Tx:9.93 | very literal; denial of life perceives its opposite, as all forms of | denial replace what is with what is not. No one can really do this, |
| Tx:9.94 | judged them by the message you give to them. Do not attribute your | denial of joy to them, or you cannot see the spark in them that could |
| Tx:9.94 | cannot see the spark in them that could bring joy to you. It is the | denial of the spark that brings depression, and whenever you see your |
| Tx:9.95 | Allegiance to the | denial of God is the ego's religion. The god of sickness obviously |
| Tx:9.95 | God is the ego's religion. The god of sickness obviously demands the | denial of health, because health is in direct opposition to its own |
| Tx:9.95 | he may seem like many different things he is but one idea—the | denial of God. |
| Tx:9.98 | if you recognized your love for Him, you could not deny Him. Your | denial of Him therefore means that you love Him and that you know He |
| Tx:9.98 | Remember that what you deny, you must have known. And if you accept | denial, you can accept its undoing. |
| Tx:9.106 | That is why to deny Him is to deny yourself. Arrogance is the | denial of love, because love shares and arrogance withholds. As long |
| Tx:10.7 | has no voids. It continues forever, however much it is denied. Your | denial of its reality arrests it in time but not in eternity. That is |
| Tx:10.17 | every hurtful thought you hold, wherever you perceive it, lies the | denial of God's Fatherhood and your Sonship. |
| Tx:10.18 | And | denial is as total as love. You cannot deny part of yourself because |
| Tx:10.34 | is truly the beginning of the dawn of light. Remember also that the | denial of this simple fact takes many forms, and these you must learn |
| Tx:10.56 | Can it perceive what it has denied? Its witnesses do attest to its | denial but hardly to what it has denied! The ego looks straight at |
| Tx:10.72 | The perception of goodness is not knowledge, but the | denial of the opposite of goodness enables you to perceive a |
| Tx:11.11 | of which you are capable. One is false, for it was made out of | denial, and denial depends on the real belief in what is denied for |
| Tx:11.11 | you are capable. One is false, for it was made out of denial, and | denial depends on the real belief in what is denied for its own |
| Tx:11.13 | of separation with the fact of unity. For the separation is only the | denial of union and, correctly interpreted, attests to your eternal |
| Tx:11.14 | Miracles are merely the translation of | denial into truth. If to love oneself is to heal oneself, those who |
| Tx:11.14 | not be sick. The task of the miracle-worker thus becomes to deny the | denial of truth. The sick must heal themselves, for the truth is in |
| Tx:11.21 | together. For perfection is and cannot be denied. To deny the | denial of perfection is not so difficult as the denial of truth, and |
| Tx:11.21 | denied. To deny the denial of perfection is not so difficult as the | denial of truth, and what we can accomplish together must be believed |
| Tx:11.60 | What is one cannot be perceived as separate, and the | denial of the separation is the reinstatement of knowledge. At the |
| Tx:11.85 | attempt of the mind to deny itself and escape the penalty of | denial. It is not an attempt to relinquish denial but to hold on to |
| Tx:11.85 | and escape the penalty of denial. It is not an attempt to relinquish | denial but to hold on to it. For it is guilt that has obscured the |
| Tx:11.89 | to deny the other. Guilt hides Christ from your sight, for it is the | denial of the blamelessness of God's Son. |
| Tx:12.41 | vision, it does not follow that you cannot see. But this is what | denial does, for by it you accept insanity, believing you can make a |
| Tx:13.49 | done unto you? Indirect proof of truth is needed in a world made of | denial and without direction. You will perceive the need for this if |
| Tx:14.1 | is the condition for knowing Him. Accepting His Son as guilty is | denial of the Father so complete that knowledge is swept away from |
| Tx:14.7 | calling here is to devote yourself with active willingness to the | denial of guilt in all its forms. To accuse is not to understand. The |
| Tx:14.32 | hidden in every darkened place shrouded in guilt and in the dark | denial of innocence. Behind the dark doors which you have closed lies |
| Tx:14.38 | now. The past which you remember never was and represents only the | denial of what always was. |
| Tx:16.20 | sufficiently for you to place your faith in them and not in their | denial. This year invest in truth, and let it work in peace. Have |
| Tx:21.82 | of sin denies. And therefore those who look on sin are seeing the | denial of the real world. Yet the last question adds the wish for |
| Tx:21.90 | is the constant peace you could experience forever. Here is what | denial has denied revealed to you. For here the final question is |
| Tx:22.14 | And truth came instantly to show you where your Self must be. It is | denial of illusions that calls on truth, for to deny illusions is to |
| Tx:24.55 | be your decision. For eternity is not regained by still one more | denial of Christ in him. And where is your salvation if he is but a |
| Tx:26.76 | of present cause must be delayed until a future time is merely a | denial of the fact that consequence and cause must come as one. Look |
| W1:79.5 | resolved the previous ones. Others remain unsolved under a cloud of | denial and rise to haunt you from time to time, only to be hidden |
| W1:91.2 | there. This follows from the premises from which the darkness comes. | Denial of light leads to failure to perceive it. Failure to perceive |
| W1:134.1 | righteous wrath, a gift unjustified and undeserved, and a complete | denial of the truth. In such a view, forgiveness must be seen as mere |
| W1:135.15 | to realize in some forms which these self-deceptions take, for the | denial of reality is very obvious. Yet planning is not often |
| W1:139.5 | It is for this | denial that you need Atonement. Your denial made no change in what |

| Tx:11.13 | of fear does dispel it, for the awareness of truth cannot be | denied. Thus does the Holy Spirit replace fear with love and |
| Tx:11.21 | the goal of perfection together. For perfection is and cannot be | denied. To deny the denial of perfection is not so difficult as the |

| Tx:12.16 | so apparent when it is uncovered that its need of healing cannot be | denied. Not all the tricks and games you offer it can heal it, for |
| Tx:12.22 | He set you apart, knowing that your peace lies in His Oneness? He | denied you only your request for pain, for suffering is not of His |

| Tx:12.63 | has slipped away. The out of mind is out of sight because what is | denied is there but is not recognized. Christ is still there, |
| Tx:13.14 | you are saying, “I who was guilty choose to remain so.” You have | denied his freedom, and by so doing you have denied the witness unto |
| Tx:13.14 | to remain so.” You have denied his freedom, and by so doing you have | denied the witness unto yours. You could as easily have freed him |
| Tx:13.50 | And if you have and give and are everything, and all this has been | denied, your thought system is closed off and wholly separated from |

| Tx:14.1 | you do not accept the necessary conditions for knowing Him, you have | denied Him and do not recognize Him, though He is all around you. He |

| Tx:14.3 | of restoring guiltlessness to the mind which has denied it and thus | denied Heaven to itself. Atonement teaches you the true condition of |

| Tx:15.88 | will do as long as you would not release him from it, and you have | denied his gift to you. His body cannot give it. And seek it not |
| Tx:16.46 | God and the attempt to secure for the self the specialness which He | denied. It is essential to the preservation of the ego that you |

| Tx:17.6 | from salvation. As you forgive him, you restore to truth what was | denied by both of you. And you will see forgiveness where you have |
| Tx:17.54 | you still. And by cutting yourself off from its expression, you have | denied yourself its benefit. You reinforce this every time you attack |
| Tx:17.63 | except in fantasy. Truth has not come because faith has been | denied, being withheld from where it rightfully belonged. Thus do you |
| Tx:18.69 | way in which sin loses all attraction right now. For here is time | denied and past and future gone. Who need do nothing has no need for |

| Tx:20.36 | trip on and no obstacles to bar your way. Nothing you need will be | denied you. Not one seeming difficulty but will melt away before you |
| Tx:20.65 | judgment. To see the body is the sign that you lack vision and have | denied the means the Holy Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How |
| Tx:21.25 | When vision is | denied, confusion of cause and effect becomes inevitable. The purpose |
| Tx:21.75 | which I have no enemies and cannot sin? And do I want to see what I | denied because it is the truth? |
| Tx:21.90 | constant peace you could experience forever. Here is what denial has | denied revealed to you. For here the final question is already |
| Tx:23.43 | of salvation's purpose is lost because it is not recognized. It is | denied where compromise has been accepted, for compromise is the |
| Tx:24.4 | not deny their presence nor their terrible results. All that can be | denied is their reality, but not their outcome. |
| Tx:24.22 | is and must forever be. You are your brother's; part of love was not | denied to him. But can it be that you have lost because he is |
| Tx:25.48 | he chose, and choosing it, he made it for himself. His wish was not | denied but changed in form to let it serve his brother and himself |
| Tx:25.70 | to set them free and give them all the honor they deserve and have | denied themselves because they are not fair and cannot understand |
| Tx:25.85 | unjust to one with equal rights. Seek to deny, and you will feel | denied. Seek to deprive, and you have been deprived. A miracle can |

| Tx:27.73 | God's Son and made him think that he has lost his innocence, | denied his Father, and made war upon himself. So fearful is the |

| Tx:28.10 | on His Son. You would deny Him His effects, yet have they never been | denied. There was no time in which His Son could be condemned for |
| Tx:30.41 | indeed and have the right to ask for. Nor could it be possible it be | denied. Your will to be complete is but God's Will, and this is given |
| Tx:30.42 | not whole cannot make whole. But what is really asked for cannot be | denied. Your will is granted. Not in any form that would content you |
| Tx:31.25 | joint inheritance remembered and accepted by you both. Alone it is | denied to both of you. Is it not clear that while you still insist on |
| W1:62.2 | is a gift to yourself. Your goal is to find out who you are, having | denied your Identity by attacking creation and its Creator. Now you |

| W1:77.5 | you do not really ask for anything. You state a fact that cannot be | denied. |

| W1:96.14 | These are your own real thoughts you have | denied, and let your mind go wandering in a world of dreams, to find |
| W1:105.7 | differently. Begin today by thinking of those brothers who have been | denied by you the peace and joy that are their right under the equal |

| W1:105.9 | you. Now are you ready to experience the joy and peace you have | denied yourself. Now you can say, “God's peace and joy are mine,” for |
| W1:124.6 | No miracle can ever be | denied to those who know that they are one with God. No thought of |

| W1:138.6 | Here is the final and the only choice in which is truth accepted or | denied. |

| W1:153.7 | Defensiveness is weakness. It proclaims you have | denied the Christ and come to fear His Father's anger. What can save |
| W1:154.12 | God Himself has left no gift beyond what you already have nor has | denied the tiniest of blessings to His Son. What can this mean to you |
| W1:155.3 | choice. They cannot learn directly from the truth because they have | denied that it is so. And so they need a teacher who perceives their |

| W1:160.5 | How simply, then, the question is resolved. Who fears has but | denied himself and said, “I am the stranger here. And so I leave my |

| W1:184.8 | take the name you give him as his own. And thus his unity is twice | denied, for you perceive him separate from you, and he accepts this |
| W1:189.9 | minds His love will blaze its pathway of itself. What has not been | denied is surely there if it be true, and can be surely reached. God |
| W1:190.3 | is a sign illusions reign in place of truth. It demonstrates God is | denied, confused with fear, perceived as mad, and seen as traitor to |
| W1:190.8 | is the ransom you have gladly paid not to be free. In pain is God | denied the Son He loves. In pain does fear appear to triumph over |
| W1:191.4 | Yet what is it except a game you play in which identity can be | denied? You are as God created you. All else but this one thing is |
| W1:191.13 | until you find it for yourself. They suffer pain until you have | denied its hold on you. They die till you accept your own eternal |
| W1:197.9 | with Him the holy thoughts of God. Earn now the gratitude you have | denied yourself when you forgot the function God has given you. But |
| W1:R6.7 | is not what it would have. Then gently let the thought which you | denied be given up in sure and quick exchange for the idea we |
| W2:230.1 | me peace forever. Now I ask but to be what I am. And can this be | denied me, when it is forever so? |

| M:13.7 | that points to God. It is its holiness that makes you safe. It is | denied if you attack any brother for anything. For it is here the |
| M:23.1 | to temptation in this world. Would it be fair if their pupils were | denied healing because of this? The Bible says, “Ask in the name of |

| Tx:7.100 | Truth is God's Will. Share His Will, and you share what He knows. | Deny His Will as yours, and you are denying His Kingdom and yours. |
| Tx:7.109 | God watches over His Children and denies them nothing. Yet when they | deny Him, they do not know this, because they deny themselves |
| Tx:7.109 | nothing. Yet when they deny Him, they do not know this, because they | deny themselves everything. |
| Tx:7.112 | have the glory you see in him. He is a co-creator with God with you. | Deny his creative power, and you are denying yours and that of God, |
| Tx:7.112 | you are denying yours and that of God, Who created you. You cannot | deny part of truth. You do not know your creations, because you do |
| Tx:8.13 | He could will to be without you. This is freedom and this is joy. | Deny yourself this and you are denying God His Kingdom because He |
| Tx:8.26 | I am come as a light into a world that does | deny itself everything. It does this simply by dissociating itself |
| Tx:8.33 | and you are nothing without me, because by denying the Father you | deny yourself. I will always remember you, and in my remembrance of |
| Tx:8.39 | you? Ask it of me who knows it for you, and you will find it. I will | deny you nothing, as God denies me nothing. |
| Tx:8.99 | In the security of reality, fear is totally meaningless. To | deny what is can only seem to be fearful. Fear cannot be real without |
| Tx:8.100 | your requests are real, being of your will. Would the Holy Spirit | deny the Will of God? And could He fail to recognize it in His Sons? |
| Tx:8.102 | but it does require acceptance. It is indeed possible for you to | deny facts, although it is impossible for you to change them. If you |
| Tx:8.102 | not see because you are interfering with the laws of seeing. If you | deny love, you will not know it because your cooperation is the law |
| Tx:8.103 | Attempts of any kind to | deny what is are fearful, and if they are strong, they will induce |
| Tx:8.118 | you will be asking of Him and how much you will receive. He will | deny you nothing because you have denied Him nothing, and so you can |
| Tx:9.44 | is total. Not to question your littleness, therefore, is to | deny all knowledge and keep the ego's whole thought system intact. |
| Tx:9.80 | and sickness is an illusion. Yet every Son of God has the power to | deny illusions anywhere in the Kingdom merely by denying them |
| Tx:9.89 | You are not free to give up freedom, but only to | deny it. You cannot do what God did not intend, because what He did |
| Tx:9.93 | but they do not know what it means. They do not realize that to | deny God is to deny their own identity, and in this sense the wages |
| Tx:9.93 | not know what it means. They do not realize that to deny God is to | deny their own identity, and in this sense the wages of sin is death. |
| Tx:9.94 | Do not forget, however, that to | deny God will inevitably result in projection, and you will believe |
| Tx:9.98 | Him, knowing that if you recognized your love for Him, you could not | deny Him. Your denial of Him therefore means that you love Him and |
| Tx:9.98 | you love Him and that you know He loves you. Remember that what you | deny, you must have known. And if you accept denial, you can accept |
| Tx:9.101 | without pain, and wholly without suffering of any kind. If you | deny Him, you bring sin, pain, and suffering into your own mind |
| Tx:9.101 | He gave it. Your mind is capable of creating worlds, but it can also | deny what it creates because it is free. |
| Tx:9.102 | fixed forever in the Mind of God. To know that is sanity. To | deny it is insanity. God gave Himself to you in your creation, and |
| Tx:9.102 | to you in your creation, and His gifts are eternal. Would you | deny yourself to Him? |
| Tx:9.103 | You are not at home anywhere else or in any other condition. Do not | deny yourself the joy which was created for you for the misery you |
| Tx:9.106 | anything, because His fatherhood gave you everything. That is why to | deny Him is to deny yourself. Arrogance is the denial of love, |
| Tx:9.106 | His fatherhood gave you everything. That is why to deny Him is to | deny yourself. Arrogance is the denial of love, because love shares |
| Tx:10.9 | He did not will to be alone, He created a Son like Himself. Do not | deny Him His Son, for your unwillingness to accept His Fatherhood has |
| Tx:10.12 | will you do not know. This is not strange when you realize that to | deny is to “not know.” God's Will is that you are His Son. By denying |
| Tx:10.18 | And denial is as total as love. You cannot | deny part of yourself because the remainder will seem to be |
| Tx:10.18 | And being without meaning to you, you will not understand it. To | deny meaning must be to fail to understand. You can heal only |
| Tx:10.26 | If you see them, it is only because you are denying the light. But | deny them instead, for the light is here, and the way is clear. |
| Tx:10.28 | Son, for they have no place in His temple. When you are tempted to | deny Him, remember that there are no other gods that you can place |
| Tx:10.32 | try to make God homeless and know that you are at home? Can the Son | deny the Father without believing that the Father has denied him? |
| Tx:10.32 | and they never hold in vain. What you experience when you | deny your Father is still for your protection, for the power of your |
| Tx:10.57 | yet where the Son is, the Father must be. Accept what God does not | deny, and He will demonstrate its truth. The witnesses for God stand |
| Tx:10.61 | kind of experience, which you will become less and less willing to | deny. Learning of Christ is easy, for to perceive with Him involves |
| Tx:10.82 | you see it, but the real world is still yours for the asking. Do not | deny it to yourself, for it can only free you. Nothing of God will |
| Tx:11.4 | you willing to engage in endless “battles” with reality in which you | deny the reality of the need for healing by making it unreal. You |
| Tx:11.6 | appeal, for only by answering his appeal can you be helped. | Deny him your help, and you will not perceive God's answer to you. |
| Tx:11.14 | could not be sick. The task of the miracle-worker thus becomes to | deny the denial of truth. The sick must heal themselves, for the |
| Tx:11.21 | of perfection together. For perfection is and cannot be denied. To | deny the denial of perfection is not so difficult as the denial of |
| Tx:11.27 | is for you. Why would you insist in denying him? For to do so is to | deny yourself and impoverish both. He is asking for salvation, as you |
| Tx:11.33 | You were willing to accept even death to | deny your Father. Yet He would not have it so, and so it is not so. |
| Tx:11.37 | existence to it. Yet it is also your mind that has the power to | deny the ego's existence, and you will surely do so when you realize |
| Tx:11.80 | for no one can forget what God Himself placed in his memory. You can | deny it, but you cannot lose it. A Voice will answer every question |
| Tx:11.85 | punishment. All this is but the delusional attempt of the mind to | deny itself and escape the penalty of denial. It is not an attempt to |
| Tx:11.89 | in peace. Love and guilt cannot coexist, and to accept one is to | deny the other. Guilt hides Christ from your sight, for it is the |
| Tx:11.93 | forever in God's Mind. God's Son will always be as he was created. | Deny your world and judge him not, for his eternal guiltlessness is |
| Tx:12.27 | in the present, you are forbidding yourself to let it go. You thus | deny yourself the message of release that every brother offers you |
| Tx:12.39 | what insanity is and look beyond it. It is given you to learn how to | deny insanity and come forth from your private world in peace. |
| Tx:12.51 | to shine on you because you called them forth. And they will not | deny the truth in you because you looked for it in them and found it |
| Tx:12.62 | with love will come to you. Love always answers, being unable to | deny a call for help or not to hear the cries of pain that rise to it |
| Tx:12.64 | world about him. Yet while he still lays value on his own, he will | deny the vision of the other world, maintaining that he loves what he |
| Tx:12.65 | he looks on love, for it is all about him and within him. He must | deny the world of pain the instant he perceives the arms of love |
| Tx:13.9 | you the power to create the witnesses to [yours, which is as His. | Deny a brother here, and you deny the witnesses to] your fatherhood |
| Tx:13.9 | witnesses to [yours, which is as His. Deny a brother here, and you | deny the witnesses to] your fatherhood in Heaven. The miracle which |
| Tx:13.19 | you see guilt where God knows there is perfect innocence? You can | deny His knowledge, but you cannot change it. Look, then, upon the |
| Tx:13.49 | You will perceive the need for this if you will realize that to | deny is the decision not to know. The logic of the world must |
| Tx:13.52 | you where the Holy Spirit leads you not goes nowhere. Anything you | deny which He knows to be true, you have denied yourself, and He must |
| Tx:13.52 | you have denied yourself, and He must therefore teach you not to | deny it. Undoing is indirect, as doing is. You were created only to |
| Tx:13.63 | is so compelling that you will realize it is impossible to | deny the simple truth. For there is nothing else. God is everywhere, |
| Tx:13.72 | will learn communication with this oneness only when you learn to | deny the causeless and accept the Cause of God as yours. The power |
| Tx:13.76 | Would you | deny the truth of God's decision and place your pitiful appraisal of |
| Tx:14.5 | ones who denied Him with you? God makes this possible. Would you | deny His yearning to be known? You yearn for Him, as He for you. This |
| Tx:14.7 | teachers of the innocence that is the right of all that God created. | Deny them not what is their due, for you will not withhold it from |
| Tx:14.70 | did, they are yours. He has made you free of what you made. You can | deny Him, but you cannot call on Him in vain. He always gives what He |
| Tx:14.75 | you must be convinced you did them through Him. It is impossible to | deny the Source of effects so powerful they could not be of you. |
| Tx:15.21 | power of God in you. Use it but for one instant, and you will never | deny it again. Who can deny the Presence of what the universe bows to |
| Tx:15.21 | it but for one instant, and you will never deny it again. Who can | deny the Presence of what the universe bows to in appreciation and |
| Tx:15.26 | you make on behalf of His dear Son. Search for the little, and you | deny yourself His power. God is not willing that His Son be content |
| Tx:15.27 | He has not left you, and you have not left Him. All your attempts to | deny His magnitude and make His Son hostage to the ego cannot make |
| Tx:15.41 | private thoughts and keep them? The only way you could do that is to | deny the perfect communication that makes the holy instant what it |
| Tx:15.46 | be alone is to be guilty. For to experience yourself as alone is to | deny the oneness of the Father and his Son and thus to attack reality. |
| Tx:15.106 | sacrifice and find it. Yet you find not love. It is impossible to | deny what love is and still recognize it. The meaning of love lies in |
| Tx:16.16 | come. It is true, just as you fear, that to acknowledge Him is to | deny all that you think you know. But it was never true. What gain is |
| Tx:16.18 | deaf could fail to see and hear them. This year, determine not to | deny what has been given you by God[. Awake and share it], for that |
| Tx:16.23 | It functions. What functions must be there. And it is only if you | deny what It has done that you could possibly deny Its Presence. |
| Tx:16.23 | And it is only if you deny what It has done that you could possibly | deny Its Presence. |
| Tx:16.62 | become one, they are trying to decrease their magnitude. Each would | deny his power, for the separate union excludes the universe. Far |
| Tx:17.2 | who ask of you conflicting things. What you use in fantasy, you | deny to truth. Yet what you give to truth to use for you is safe from |
| Tx:17.49 | very explicit in His answer? You are not now wholly insane. Can you | deny that He has given you a most explicit statement? Now He asks for |
| Tx:17.54 | for the attack must blind you to yourself. And it is impossible to | deny yourself and recognize what has been given and received by you. |
| Tx:19.60 | and leave you homeless. And it is this for which you would | deny a home to peace. This “sacrifice” you feel to be too great to |
| Tx:21.5 | happiness you want to learn and not forget. It is not this you would | deny. Your question is whether the means by which this course is |
| Tx:21.25 | This is the same desire. The Son is the effect, whose Cause he would | deny. And so he seems to be the cause, producing real effects. |
| Tx:21.28 | you together and as one. See what “proves” otherwise, and you | deny your whole reality. But grant that everything which seems to |
| Tx:21.59 | correction. If it can correct and you allow it not to do so, you | deny it to yourself and to your brother. And if he shares this same |
| Tx:21.69 | if he be free already? And who could bind him but himself if he | deny his freedom? God is not mocked; no more His Son can be |
| Tx:22.14 | Self must be. It is denial of illusions that calls on truth, for to | deny illusions is to recognize that fear is meaningless. Into the |
| Tx:22.56 | you bring you do not recognize, and yet you will remember. Who can | deny himself the vision that he brings to others? And who would fail |
| Tx:22.60 | the welfare of the world. And it is only arrogance that would | deny the power of your will. Think you the Will of God is powerless? |
| Tx:23.12 | nor can they threaten it in any way. And the reality which they | deny is not a part of them. |
| Tx:23.41 | guilt and frantic fear of punishment the murderer must feel? He may | deny he is a murderer and justify his savagery with smiles as he |
| Tx:24.4 | more inclusive than you think, are there by your election. Do not | deny their presence nor their terrible results. All that can be |
| Tx:24.20 | and yours are enemies and bound in hate to kill each other and | deny they are the same. Yet it is not illusions which have reached |
| Tx:24.33 | for your forgiveness. God asks your mercy on His Son and on Himself. | Deny them not. They ask of you but that your will be done. They seek |
| Tx:24.62 | his specialness demands does he withhold. Nothing it needs does he | deny to what he loves. And while it calls to him, he hears no other |
| Tx:25.53 | To justify one value that the world upholds is to | deny your Father's sanity and yours. For God and His beloved Son do |
| Tx:25.58 | this because the form of the alternative is one which he cannot | deny nor overlook nor fail completely to perceive at all. To each his |
| Tx:25.85 | to them because you were unjust to one with equal rights. Seek to | deny, and you will feel denied. Seek to deprive, and you have been |
| Tx:26.14 | resolution, you have made it great and past the hope of healing. You | deny the miracle of justice can be fair. |
| Tx:26.63 | for his release and yours. Heaven is shining on the Son of God. | Deny him not, that you may be released. Each instant is the Son of |
| Tx:26.91 | By this do I | deny the Presence of the Father and the Son. And I would rather know |
| Tx:27.22 | is the separation but a wish to take God's function from Him and | deny that it is His? Yet if it is not His, it is not yours, for you |
| Tx:27.31 | brother that you see means nothing. There is nothing to attack or to | deny, love, or hate, or to endow with power or to see as weak. The |
| Tx:27.58 | so is the miracle the witness unto life. It is a witness no one can | deny, for it is the effects of life it brings. The dying live, the |
| Tx:27.70 | not the dreamer of your dreams. And this is what you choose if you | deny the cause of suffering is in your mind. Be glad indeed it is, |
| Tx:28.10 | understand it is not He Who laid a judgment on His Son. You would | deny Him His effects, yet have they never been denied. There was no |
| Tx:28.27 | the dream's alternative, the choice to be the dreamer rather than | deny the active role in making up the dream. They are the glad |
| Tx:28.49 | your own Identity because you think that it is fearful. And you will | deny your Self and walk upon an alien ground which your Creator did |
| Tx:28.61 | of you because it is a part of God Himself. Are you not sick if you | deny yourself your wholeness and your health, the Source of help, the |
| Tx:29.21 | perfection? Or are you the proof that He is perfect and complete? | Deny Him not His witness in the dream His Son prefers to his reality. |
| Tx:31.93 | Deny me not the little gift I ask when in exchange I lay before your | |
| W1:14.4 | that cross your mind. Name each one as it occurs to you, and then | deny its reality. God did not create it, and so it is not real. Say, |
| W1:45.4 | We will attempt to leave the unreal and seek for the real. We will | deny the world in favor of truth. We will not let the thoughts of the |
| W1:103.1 | And therefore joy is everywhere as well. Yet can the mind | deny that this is so, believing there are gaps in love where sin can |
| W1:105.12 | today with what He wills. And if a brother seems to tempt you to | deny God's gift to him, see it as but another chance to let yourself |
| W1:124.7 | recognition of reality. In our experience the world is freed; as we | deny our separation from our Father, it is healed along with us. |
| W1:132.14 | Can a world which comes from this idea be real? Can it be anywhere? | Deny illusions, but accept the truth. Deny you are a shadow briefly |
| W1:132.14 | be real? Can it be anywhere? Deny illusions, but accept the truth. | Deny you are a shadow briefly laid upon a dying world. Release your |
| W1:132.20 | your ideas to all the world, and say whenever you are tempted to | deny the power of your simple change of mind: |
| W1:133.8 | someone else, you will have nothing left. This is because when you | deny his right to everything, you have denied your own. You therefore |
| W1:165.3 | Who would | deny his safety and his peace, his joy, his healing and his peace of |

| W1:167.2 | a slight discomfort or the merest frown, acknowledge death. And thus | deny you live. |
| W1:167.10 | Let us today be children of the truth and not | deny our holy heritage. Our life is not as we imagine it. Who changes |

| W1:182.2 | to occupy their time and keep their sadness from them. Others will | deny that they are sad and do not recognize their tears at all. Still |

| W1:184.4 | become the threats which it must overcome, conflict with, and | deny. |
| W1:186.2 | we are asked to do is to accept our part in genuine humility and not | deny with self-deceiving arrogance that we are worthy. What is given |
| W1:186.3 | are. What could humility request but this? And what could arrogance | deny but this? Today we will not shrink from our assignment on the |
| W1:186.3 | specious grounds that modesty is outraged. It is pride that would | deny the call of God Himself. |
| W1:188.2 | arguments which prove it is not there become ridiculous. Who can | deny the presence of what he beholds in him? It is not difficult to |
| W1:190.6 | unchanging, and unchangeable forever and forever. And would you | deny a little corner of your mind its own inheritance and keep it as |
| W1:191.2 | should be your world? What have you done that this is what you see? | Deny your own Identity, and this is what remains. You look on chaos |
| W1:191.3 | Deny your own Identity, and you will not escape the madness which | |
| W1:191.3 | and ghostly thought which mocks creation and which laughs at God. | Deny your own Identity, and you assail the universe alone, without a |
| W1:191.3 | friend, a tiny particle of dust against the legions of your enemies. | Deny your own Identity and look on evil, sin, and death. And watch |
| W1:192.10 | mercy. It is he who asks that you accept the way to freedom now. | Deny him not. His Father's Love for him belongs to you. Your function |
| W1:193.20 | raise it up to Heaven. God will take this final step Himself. Do not | deny the little steps He asks you take to Him. |
| W1:196.2 | uses thus. But you can learn to see these foolish applications and | deny the meaning they appear to have. |
| W1:197.2 | and guilt confused by those who know not what their thoughts can do. | Deny your strength, and weakness must become salvation to you. See |
| W1:R6.7 | Permit no idle thought to go unchallenged. If you notice one, | deny its hold and hasten to assure your mind that this is not what it |
| W2:228.1 | My Father knows my holiness. Shall I | deny His knowledge and believe in what His knowledge makes |
| W2:276.1 | His Son was born. Let us accept His Fatherhood, and all is given us. | Deny we were created in His Love, and we deny our Self, to be unsure |
| W2:276.1 | and all is given us. Deny we were created in His Love, and we | deny our Self, to be unsure of who we are, of who our Father is, and |

| W2:309.1 | own, can will no change in this. For to deny my Father's Will is to | deny my own. To look within is but to find my will as God created it |

| Tx:2.20 | mind is not serving the Soul. This literally starves the Soul by | denying its daily bread. God offers only mercy. Your words should |

| Tx:3.27 | frame of reference. It also has the disastrous effect of | denying the creative power of the miracle. |
| Tx:4.58 | easier than trying to think against it. Your mind is one with God's. | Denying this and thinking otherwise has held your ego together but |
| Tx:7.70 | is gone for you. Reality cannot be partly appreciated. That is why | denying any part of it means you have lost awareness of all of it. |
| Tx:7.80 | Will of God. Do not accept anything else as your will, or you are | denying what you are. Deny this and you will attack, believing you |
| Tx:7.100 | and you share what He knows. Deny His Will as yours, and you are | denying His Kingdom and yours. The Holy Spirit will direct you only |
| Tx:7.106 | accepting what you are. But if your joy is what you are], you are | denying joy. The miracle is therefore a lesson in what joy is. Being |
| Tx:7.110 | of God to everything you see and touch and remember are literally | denying Heaven to yourselves. I call upon you again to remember that |
| Tx:7.112 | a co-creator with God with you. Deny his creative power, and you are | denying yours and that of God, Who created you. You cannot deny part |
| Tx:8.13 | you. This is freedom and this is joy. Deny yourself this and you are | denying God His Kingdom because He created you for this. When we |
| Tx:8.25 | only if you do, you will feel lonely and helpless, because you are | denying yourself everything. |
| Tx:8.28 | to God. If you will accept the fact that I am with you, you are | denying the world and accepting God. My will is His, and your will to |
| Tx:8.33 | without the Father, and you are nothing without me, because by | denying the Father you deny yourself. I will always remember you, and |
| Tx:8.101 | do not recognize the enormous waste of energy which you expend in | denying truth. What would you say of someone who persisted in |
| Tx:9.71 | When you attack, you are | denying yourself. You are specifically teaching yourself that you are |
| Tx:9.77 | him as part of God teaches him the truth about himself, which he is | denying. Would you strengthen his denial of God and thus lose sight |
| Tx:9.80 | has the power to deny illusions anywhere in the Kingdom merely by | denying them completely in himself. I can heal you because I know |
| Tx:9.94 | depression, and whenever you see your brothers without it, you are | denying God. |
| Tx:9.105 | Do not perceive anything God did not create, or you are | denying Him. His is the only Fatherhood, and it is yours only because |
| Tx:10.12 | to deny is to “not know.” God's Will is that you are His Son. By | denying this, you denied your own will and therefore do not know what |
| Tx:10.14 | makes you want not to know. Believing this, you hide in darkness, | denying that the light is in you. |
| Tx:10.26 | in a light such as this? If you see them, it is only because you are | denying the light. But deny them instead, for the light is here, and |
| Tx:10.31 | without love. And since what He created is part of Him, you are | denying Him His place in His own altar. |
| Tx:10.40 | the fact already that its effects can be dispelled merely by | denying their reality. The next step is obviously to recognize that |
| Tx:10.84 | your brother and see only his loving thoughts as his reality, for by | denying that his mind is split, you will heal yours. Accept him as |
| Tx:11.14 | they are asking for the love that would heal them but which they are | denying to themselves. If they knew the truth about themselves, they |
| Tx:11.22 | have overcome fear—not by hiding it, not by minimizing it, not by | denying its full import in any way—this is what you will really |
| Tx:11.27 | and every request of a brother is for you. Why would you insist in | denying him? For to do so is to deny yourself and impoverish both. He |
| Tx:11.53 | is enormous. For this investment costs you the world's reality by | denying yours and gives you nothing in return. You cannot sell your |
| Tx:12.41 | all you made you will no longer see, for sight of it depends upon | denying vision. Yet from denying vision, it does not follow that you |
| Tx:12.41 | no longer see, for sight of it depends upon denying vision. Yet from | denying vision, it does not follow that you cannot see. But this is |
| Tx:16.16 | it was never true. What gain is there to you in clinging to it and | denying the evidence for truth? For you have come too near to truth |
| Tx:16.56 | to which you want them to be true. And to the same extent you are | denying truth, and so are making yourself unable to make the simple |
| Tx:21.26 | see and feel and place your faith in its ability to do so, you are | denying your Creator and believing that you made yourself. For if you |

| Tx:22.7 | to what can never communicate at all. Think, then, what happened. | Denying what you are and firm in faith that you are something else, |
| W1:84.7 | This is no justification for | denying my Self. I will not use this to attack love. Let this not |

| Tx:21.87 | it so. Nothing has power to confound its constancy because its own | desire cannot be shaken. It comes as surely unto those who see the |
| Tx:21.88 | you that you cannot ask for happiness inconstantly. For if what you | desire you receive and happiness is constant, then you need ask for |
| Tx:21.88 | what it is, you did not ask for it. For no one fails to ask for his | desire of something he believes holds out some promise of the power |
| Tx:21.88 | wrong in what he asks, where, and of what. Yet he will ask because | desire is a request, an asking for, and made by one whom God Himself |

| Tx:21.90 | given. Here is the future now, for time is powerless because of your | desire for what will never change. For you have asked that nothing |
| Tx:22.27 | will be as it would have it be. Here is no separate will nor the | desire that anything be separate. Its will has no exceptions, and |
| Tx:22.37 | must become impossible for each to see himself as causing sin by his | desire to have sin real. Yet reason sees a holy relationship as what |

| Tx:25.37 | The state of sinlessness is merely this: the whole | desire to attack is gone, and so there is no reason to perceive the |
| Tx:27.19 | a foolish wish with no effects. Your health is a result of your | desire to see your brother with no blood upon his hands nor guilt |
| Tx:28.2 | without a cause. Why would you cling to it in memory if you did not | desire its effects? Remembering is as selective as perception, being |
| Tx:28.4 | past. If you would have it there, then there it is. But only your | desire made the link, and only you have held it to a part of time |
| Tx:28.18 | and not allow himself to be his Father's Son. For this impossible | desire, he does not believe that he is Love's effect and must be |
| Tx:28.43 | one. No one is sick if someone else accepts his union with him. His | desire to be a sick and separated mind cannot remain without a |

| Tx:4.1 | either. It can lead only to mutual progress. The result of genuine | devotion is inspiration, a word which properly understood is the |

| Tx:4.60 | of the ego and need not be. You can be as vigilant against the ego's | dictates as for them. |
| Tx:4.95 | the ego is based on its own thought system, as is everything else it | dictates. Its communication is controlled by its need to protect |

| Tx:12.27 | to preserve its image by responding as if it were present. Thus it | dictates reactions to those you meet now from a past reference point, |
| Tx:12.27 | obscuring their present reality. In effect, if you follow the ego's | dictates, you will react to your brothers as though they were someone |
| Tx:17.24 | forgiveness. Therefore, the relationships which the unholy alliance | dictates are not perceived nor felt as now. Yet the frame of |
| Tx:18.88 | The body's eyes will never look on it. Yet they will see what it | dictates. |

| Tx:10.66 | head. Yet you cannot crucify God's Son, for the Will of God cannot | die. His Son has been redeemed from his own crucifixion, and you |
| Tx:10.70 | And being loving, they are like the Father and therefore cannot | die. The real world can actually be perceived. All that is necessary |
| Tx:11.32 | you could really separate yourselves from the Mind of God, you would | die, and the world you perceive is a world of separation. |
| Tx:11.74 | you while you live, but its hatred is not satisfied until you | die. For your destruction is the one end toward which it works, and |
| Tx:11.76 | tempted to yield to the desire for death, remember that I did not | die. You will realize that this is true when you look within and see |
| Tx:11.76 | will see only the eternal as you look out upon a world that cannot | die. |
| Tx:12.9 | of your Father, for you will remember His guiltless Son, who did not | die because he is immortal. And you will see that you were redeemed |
| Tx:12.36 | recognize that they have condemned themselves. They do not wish to | die, yet they will not let condemnation go. And so they separate into |
| Tx:16.33 | not share with others, are trying to live with guilt rather than | die of it. This is the choice they see. And love to them is only an |
| Tx:16.52 | occur. The central theme in its litany to sacrifice is that God must | die so you can live. And it is this theme which is acted out in the |
| Tx:18.77 | ruler of all he surveys who looks on nothing, yet who would still | die to defend it? This little self is not your kingdom. Arched high |
| Tx:19.19 | impossible. For the wages of sin is death, and how can the immortal | die? |
| Tx:19.56 | forgiven me. For I became the symbol of your sin, and so I had to | die instead of you. To the ego sin means death, and so Atonement is |
| Tx:19.57 | means for communication of salvation, but not its Source. No one can | die for anyone, and death does not atone for sin. Yet you can live to |
| Tx:19.75 | Not one but must regard the body as himself, without which he would | die, and yet within which is his death equally inevitable. |
| Tx:19.77 | the third of the obstacles which peace must flow across. No one can | die unless he chooses death. What seems to be the fear of death is |
| Tx:19.85 | it what you ordered it to do. In its exaltation you commanded it to | die, for only death could conquer life. And what but insanity could |

| Tx:20.73 | if you realized that those who seem to walk about in it, to sin and | die, attack and murder and destroy themselves, are wholly unreal? |
| Tx:23.46 | desire to communicate and the unnatural intent to murder and to | die. Think you the form that murder takes can offer safety? Can guilt |
| Tx:24.32 | curse God because He did not make their dream reality. Curse God and | die, but not by Him Who made not death, but only in the dream. Open |
| Tx:25.34 | of guilt and merciless revenge, and every wish to hurt and kill and | die will disappear before the sun you bring. |
| Tx:26.6 | to your belief in sin. You sacrifice your innocence with his and | die each time you see in him a sin deserving death. |
| Tx:26.7 | and given life again. His holiness gives life to you, who cannot | die because his sinlessness is known to God and can no more be |
| Tx:26.14 | not God to punish him because you find him guilty and would have him | die. God offers you the means to see his innocence. Would it be fair |
| Tx:26.40 | free as God created him. He was reborn the instant that he chose to | die instead of live. And will you not forgive him now because he made |
| Tx:26.42 | instant when the time of terror was replaced by love. And so you | die each day to live again until you cross the gap between past and |
| Tx:26.63 | Each instant is the Son of God reborn, until he chooses not to | die again. In every wish to hurt, he chooses death instead of what |
| Tx:27.4 | an easy price if they can say, “Behold me, brother; at your hand I | die.” For sickness is the witness to his guilt, and death would prove |
| Tx:27.47 | fearful, for you have withheld its peace and comfort, leaving it to | die. Would not a world so bitterly bereft be looked on as a |
| Tx:28.55 | you want but never makes the choice. It is not born and does not | die. It can but follow aimlessly the path on which it has been set. |
| Tx:29.36 | with his tiny spear and rusted sword to keep his ancient promises to | die. |

| Tx:29.41 | function their Creator gave to them. Life's function cannot be to | die. It must be life's extension, that it be as one forever and |
| Tx:29.45 | more. And each will fail him, all excepting one; for he will | die and does not understand the idol that he seeks is but his death. |

| Tx:5.73 | you? What you do not understand is that the two voices speak for | different interpretations of the same thing simultaneously, or almost |
| Tx:5.83 | quite frequently in the Bible and also in this course under many | different terms. For example, “God will keep him in perfect peace |
| Tx:6.8 | I did not share it, I did not strengthen it. I therefore offered a | different interpretation of attack and one which I do want to share |
| Tx:6.26 | excluding yourself by the very statement you are making that you are | different from the one on whom you project. Since you have also |
| Tx:6.27 | separation going. It is solely a device of the ego to make you feel | different from your brothers and separated from them. The ego |
| Tx:6.83 | beliefs on this crucial issue vary, and that is why it promotes | different moods. The Holy Spirit never varies on this point, and so |
| Tx:7.10 | in this world as well as in the Kingdom. However, the content is | different in this world, because the thoughts it governs are very |
| Tx:7.10 | is different in this world, because the thoughts it governs are very | different from the thoughts in the Kingdom. Laws must be adapted to |

| Tx:7.13 | terms like “intramental” and “intermental” without seeing them as | different [and] conflicting, because minds can be in perfect accord. |
| Tx:7.15 | be helpful. In effect, they must be translated for those who speak a | different language. Nevertheless, a good translator, although he must |
| Tx:7.23 | makes them useless for the ego's purpose but very useful for His. If | different abilities are applied long enough to one goal, the |
| Tx:7.23 | rather than their differences is emphasized. You can excel in many | different ways, but you can equalize in one way only. Equality is not |
| Tx:7.28 | and therefore you have accepted the impossible as true. How is that | different from saying that you are perceiving yourself as unreal? |
| Tx:8.5 | If the outcome of yours has made you unhappy and if you want a | different one, a change in the curriculum is obviously necessary. |
| Tx:8.7 | presents an impossible learning task. They are teaching you entirely | different things in entirely different ways, which might be possible |
| Tx:8.7 | task. They are teaching you entirely different things in entirely | different ways, which might be possible except for the crucial fact |
| Tx:8.32 | me, I will help you, knowing that we are alike. If you want to be | different, I will wait until you change your mind. I can teach you, |
| Tx:8.40 | of the ego. Do not try to hold on to both, or you will try to go in | different directions and will lose the way. |
| Tx:8.59 | to involve the translation of one order of reality into another. | Different orders of reality merely appear to exist, just as different |
| Tx:8.59 | another. Different orders of reality merely appear to exist, just as | different orders of miracles do. Thought cannot be made into flesh |
| Tx:8.70 | the whole is built up of parts, which can separate and reassemble in | different constellations. Knowledge never changes, so its |
| Tx:8.95 | Divided wills do not communicate because they speak for | different things to the same mind. This loses the ability to |
| Tx:8.96 | as God's. The separation is nothing more than the belief that it is | different. |
| Tx:8.97 | is stronger than God's. If, then, a mind believes that its will is | different from His, it can only decide either that there is no God or |
| Tx:9.5 | errors, you cannot understand how all errors are undone. How is this | different from telling you that what you teach you learn? Your |
| Tx:9.22 | it is still to believe in it. The form of the revolt, then, is | different but not the content. |
| Tx:9.41 | and they cannot both be true. You do not yet realize how completely | different these evaluations are, because you do not understand how |
| Tx:9.50 | aware of threat, but does not make distinctions between two entirely | different kinds of threat to its existence. Its own profound sense of |
| Tx:9.60 | Your creations add to Him as you do, but nothing is added that is | different, because everything has always been. What can upset you |
| Tx:9.95 | insane idea. He has many forms, but although he may seem like many | different things he is but one idea—the denial of God. |
| Tx:10.1 | allegiance is impossible. Remember, too, that their results are as | different as their foundations, and their fundamentally |
| Tx:10.26 | The way is not hard, but it is very | different. Yours is the way of pain, of which God knows nothing. That |
| Tx:10.61 | Yet | different experiences lead to different beliefs, [and with them, |
| Tx:10.61 | Yet different experiences lead to | different beliefs, [and with them, different perceptions. For |
| Tx:10.61 | Yet different experiences lead to different beliefs, [and with them, | different perceptions. For perceptions are learned with beliefs,] and |
| Tx:11.68 | for it represents the acceptance of two goals, each perceived in a | different place, separated from each other because you made them |
| Tx:11.68 | a different place, separated from each other because you made them | different. The mind then sees a divided world outside itself but not |
| Tx:12.43 | and one you made and one was given you. Each is a way of seeing, and | different worlds arise from their different visions. See through the |
| Tx:12.43 | you. Each is a way of seeing, and different worlds arise from their | different visions. See through the vision that is given you, for |
| Tx:12.60 | The world you see must be denied, for sight of it is costing you a | different kind of vision. You cannot see both worlds, for each of |
| Tx:12.60 | of vision. You cannot see both worlds, for each of them involves a | different kind of seeing and depends on what you cherish. The sight |
| Tx:13.45 | unto sanity and unto peace. The Holy Spirit has a very | different kind of reconciliation in His Mind for you, and one which |
| Tx:14.39 | in light is not attacked. It merely vanishes because it is not true. | Different realities are meaningless, for reality must be one. It |
| Tx:14.44 | not obscure, for everyone perceives it as the same. All bring their | different problems to its healing light, but all their problems are |
| Tx:14.64 | Do not be concerned how you can learn a lesson so completely | different from everything you have taught yourselves. How would you |
| Tx:15.51 | —one part of one aspect suits its purposes, while it prefers | different parts of another aspect. Thus does it assemble reality to |
| Tx:15.52 | is special, for your personal needs intrude on no one to make them | different. Without the values from the past, you would see them all |
| Tx:15.95 | burrows underground and hides in darkness, to emerge in forms quite | different from what it is. Yet it is necessary to examine each one as |
| Tx:15.95 | of them. When you are willing to regard them not as separate but as | different manifestations of the same idea, and one you do not want, |
| Tx:15.112 | so long left unfulfilled, in the Great Awakening. Make this year | different by making it all the same. And let all your relationships |
| Tx:16.1 | Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His way. [His way is very | different.] He does not understand suffering and would have you teach |
| Tx:16.21 | it was untrue. And He must have done so from the basis of a very | different thought system and one with nothing in common with yours. |
| Tx:16.63 | Across the bridge, it is so | different! For a time the body is still seen but not exclusively, as |
| Tx:17.1 | in reality, but they can do so in the mind that would have reality | different. |
| Tx:17.8 | that you could not believe it is the meeting place of worlds so | different. Yet this little bridge is the strongest thing that touches |
| Tx:17.28 | glorifies yours instead of His because of the delusion that they are | different. |
| Tx:17.32 | one remains, you will not let the others go. For this one is not | different. Retain this one, and you have retained the whole. |
| Tx:18.2 | Substitution is clearly a process in which they are perceived as | different. One would unite; the other separate. Nothing can come |
| Tx:18.3 | emotion. It seems to take many forms, and each seems to require a | different form of acting out for satisfaction. While this appears to |
| Tx:18.5 | You have expressed surprise at hearing how very | different is reality from what you see. You do not realize the |
| Tx:18.19 | time is spent in dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking dreams have | different forms, and that is all. Their content is the same. They are |
| Tx:18.35 | interfering with the lesson by believing that you make the learner | different. You did not make the learner, nor can you make him |
| Tx:18.35 | different. You did not make the learner, nor can you make him | different. Would you first make a miracle yourself and then expect |
| Tx:18.56 | of mind. But the communication is internal. [It is not made up of | different parts which reach each other.] Mind reaches to itself. It |
| Tx:18.57 | from His Son to make this possible. He would have had to create | different things and to establish different orders of reality, only |
| Tx:18.57 | He would have had to create different things and to establish | different orders of reality, only some of which were love. Yet love |
| Tx:18.64 | And every instant that you spend without awareness of it gives you a | different view of it when you return. |
| Tx:18.67 | Your way will be | different, not in purpose but in means. A holy relationship is a |
| Tx:18.76 | rest and keeping it apart from its Creator. This little aspect is no | different from the whole, being continuous with it and at one with |
| Tx:18.94 | but the one you cannot take, transports you to something completely | different. Here is the Source of light—nothing perceived, forgiven, |
| Tx:18.95 | world, beyond which learning cannot go, will go beyond it but in a | different way. Where learning ends there God begins, for learning |
| Tx:19.30 | You see the line as broken, and as you shift to | different aspects of the spiral, the line looks different. Yet in |
| Tx:19.30 | and as you shift to different aspects of the spiral, the line looks | different. Yet in your mind is One Who knows it is unbroken and |
| Tx:19.33 | stronger. And each part of God's fragmented creation would have a | different will, opposed to His and in eternal opposition to Him and |
| Tx:19.50 | Perception cannot obey two masters, each asking for messages of | different things in different languages. What fear would feed upon, |
| Tx:19.50 | obey two masters, each asking for messages of different things in | different languages. What fear would feed upon, love overlooks. What |
| Tx:20.10 | This Easter look with | different eyes upon each other. You have forgiven me. And yet I |
| Tx:20.16 | in perception or a belief that what was so before has been made | different. Every adjustment is therefore a distortion and calls upon |
| Tx:20.42 | You look upon each holy instant as a | different point in time. It never changes. All that it ever held or |
| Tx:20.74 | which they serve? This world seems to hold out many purposes, each | different and with different values. Yet they are all the same. Again |
| Tx:20.74 | This world seems to hold out many purposes, each different and with | different values. Yet they are all the same. Again there is no order |
| Tx:22.1 | believed by each to be within himself. And each one seems to make a | different error, and one the other cannot understand. Brothers, it is |
| Tx:22.2 | has need for sin? Only the lonely and alone who see their brothers | different from themselves. It is this difference, seen but not real, |
| Tx:22.3 | A holy relationship starts from a | different premise. Each one has looked within and seen no lack. |
| Tx:22.5 | heal and hate the one He loves, then you and your Creator have a | different will. Yet if you are his will, what you must then believe |
| Tx:22.10 | sounds a baby makes and what he hears are highly unreliable, meaning | different things to him at different times. Neither the sounds he |
| Tx:22.10 | he hears are highly unreliable, meaning different things to him at | different times. Neither the sounds he hears nor sights he sees are |
| Tx:22.15 | Christ comes to what is like Himself; the same, not | different. For He is always drawn unto Himself. What is as like Him |
| Tx:22.16 | truth is meaningless, do they appear to be the only alternatives and | different from each other. In truth they are the same. Both bring the |
| Tx:22.17 | world of misery is to select some aspects out of it, see them as | different, and define the difference as joy. Yet to perceive a |
| Tx:22.19 | the other way. Truth is the same and misery the same, but they are | different from each other in every way, in every instance, and |
| Tx:22.19 | one exception can exist is to confuse what is the same with what is | different. One illusion cherished and defended against the truth |
| Tx:22.24 | the meaningless idea that thoughts can leave the thinker's mind, be | different from it, and in opposition to it. If this were true, |
| Tx:22.24 | possible the Son of God could leave his Father's Mind, make himself | different, and oppose His Will, would it be possible that the self he |
| Tx:22.25 | you made is yours. You would condemn His joy to misery and make Him | different. And all the misery you made has been your own. Are you not |
| Tx:22.29 | be understood. And here do reason and the ego separate to go their | different ways. |
| Tx:22.35 | Only mistakes have | different forms, and so they can deceive. You can change form because |
| Tx:22.63 | Only the | different can attack. So you conclude because you can attack you must |
| Tx:22.63 | can attack. So you conclude because you can attack you must be | different. Yet does the Holy Spirit explain this differently. Because |
| Tx:22.63 | does the Holy Spirit explain this differently. Because you are not | different, you cannot attack. Either position is a logical conclusion |
| Tx:22.63 | cannot attack. Either position is a logical conclusion if only the | different can attack. Either could be maintained, but never both. The |
| Tx:22.63 | to be answered to decide which must be true is whether you are | different. From the position of what you understand, you seem to be |
| Tx:22.65 | you you cannot separate, denies the ego. Let truth decide if you be | different or the same and teach you which is true. |
| Tx:23.12 | yourself is but the battle of two illusions, struggling to make them | different from each other in the belief the one which conquers will |
| Tx:23.12 | true. There is no conflict between them and the truth. Nor are they | different from each other. Both are not true. And so it matters not |
| Tx:23.17 | except illusions. Illusions can conflict because their forms are | different. And they do battle only to establish which form is true. |
| Tx:23.20 | The first chaotic law is that the truth is | different for everyone. Like all these principles, this one maintains |
| Tx:23.20 | these principles, this one maintains that each is separate and has a | different set of thoughts which sets him off from others. This |
| Tx:23.23 | For one must always be condemned and by the other. Now are they | different and enemies. And their relationship is one of opposition, |
| Tx:23.39 | steps to chaos do follow neatly from their starting point. Each is a | different form in the progression of truth's reversal, leading still |
| Tx:23.43 | difference. Thus it would teach a little of the same can still be | different, and yet the same remain intact as one. Does this make |
| Tx:23.48 | What can be equal to the truth yet | different? Murder and love are incompatible. Yet if they both are |
| Tx:23.49 | the Son is murder, but it is insanity. What is the same can have no | different function. Creation is the means for God's extension, and |
| Tx:23.51 | place look down upon it. From there will your perspective be quite | different. Here in the midst of it, it does seem real. Here you have |
| Tx:24.5 | and whom He knows? Only the special could have enemies, for they are | different and not the same. And difference of any kind imposes orders |
| Tx:24.6 | for there is nothing in the universe unlike itself. But what is | different calls for judgment, and this must come from someone |
| Tx:24.11 | your enemy and not your friend. Never can there be peace among the | different. He is your friend because you are the same. |
| Tx:24.16 | but never will you hear the Voice for God beside it. They speak a | different language and they fall on different ears. To every special |
| Tx:24.16 | for God beside it. They speak a different language and they fall on | different ears. To every special one a different message, and one |
| Tx:24.16 | language and they fall on different ears. To every special one a | different message, and one with different meaning, is the truth. Yet |
| Tx:24.16 | ears. To every special one a different message, and one with | different meaning, is the truth. Yet how can truth be different to |
| Tx:24.16 | and one with different meaning, is the truth. Yet how can truth be | different to each one? The special messages the special hear convince |
| Tx:24.16 | one? The special messages the special hear convince them they are | different and apart—each in his special sins and “safe” from love, |
| Tx:24.18 | be you certain that the truth is just the same in both. It gives no | different messages and has one meaning. And it is one you both can |
| Tx:24.44 | are illusions too, as much as yours. And yet, because they serve a | different purpose, the strength their purpose holds is given them. |
| Tx:24.70 | Look at yourself, and you will see a body. Look at this body in a | different light, and it looks different. And without a light, it |
| Tx:24.70 | see a body. Look at this body in a different light, and it looks | different. And without a light, it seems that it is gone. Yet you are |
| Tx:24.72 | how they look, nor where they go, nor even what they do. They have a | different purpose. It is this that joins them to their like and |
| Tx:24.72 | joins them to their like and separates each from all aspects with a | different purpose. The Son of God retains His Father's Will. The son |
| Tx:24.72 | to specialness but by your choice. And it is given you to make a | different choice and use perception for a different purpose. And what |
| Tx:24.72 | it is given you to make a different choice and use perception for a | different purpose. And what you see will serve that purpose well and |
| Tx:25.8 | Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad desire to be separate, | different, and special, to the Christ, to make the oneness clear to |
| Tx:25.11 | What is the same can not be | different, and what is one can not have separate parts. |
| Tx:25.25 | who made it, and they do not see it as the same. To each it has a | different purpose, and to each it is a perfect means to serve the |
| Tx:25.43 | He can see no evil, nothing in the world to fear, and no one who is | different from himself. And as he loves them, so he looks upon |
| Tx:25.59 | to you in God's Own plan to show His Sons that hell and Heaven are | different, not the same. And that in Heaven they are all the same, |
| Tx:25.72 | loving justice knows to be his due. For love and justice are not | different. Because they are the same does mercy stand at God's right |
| Tx:26.12 | time, or any attribute which you perceive that makes each one seem | different from the rest. Think not the limits you impose on what you |
| Tx:26.21 | there are no simple facts because what is the same and what is | different remain unclear. The one essential thing to make a choice at |
| Tx:26.22 | this aim. Its only purpose is to teach what is the same and what is | different, leaving room to make the only choice which can be made. |
| Tx:26.24 | to give up all attempts to choose between them and to make them | different. [How simple is the choice between two things so clearly |
| Tx:26.30 | for only that is all there is to learn. And you can learn it many | different ways. All learning is a help or hindrance to the gate of |
| Tx:26.30 | in between is possible. There are two teachers only, who point in | different ways. And you will go along the way your chosen teacher |
| Tx:26.62 | is one to Him must be the same. If you believe what is the same is | different, you but deceive yourself. What God calls one will be |
| Tx:26.68 | a little separate. For time and space are one illusion which takes | different forms. If it has been projected beyond your minds, you |
| Tx:26.85 | response of anger now is just. And thus you see what is the same as | different. Confusion is not limited. If it occurs at all, it will be |
| Tx:27.5 | hands made gentle by His touch, the Holy Spirit lays a picture of a | different you. It is a picture of a body still, for what you really |
| Tx:27.7 | And each has many voices, speaking to your brother and yourself in | different tongues. And yet to both the message is the same. Adornment |
| Tx:27.12 | lasting sign of what it represents. This leaves no space in which a | different view, another purpose, can be given it. You do not know its |
| Tx:27.23 | perceive a function unified which has conflicting purposes and | different ends. Correction, to a mind so split, must be a way to |
| Tx:27.23 | someone else. And thus does he become your victim, not your brother, | different from you in that he is more guilty, thus in need of your |
| Tx:27.23 | he. This splits his function off from yours and gives you both a | different role. And so you cannot be perceived as one and, with a |
| Tx:27.24 | your mind. And thus He represents the other half and seems to have a | different purpose from the one you cherish and you think is yours. |
| Tx:27.26 | And this He does by giving both of you a function that is one, not | different. |
| Tx:27.36 | be plain. A problem set in conflict has no answer, for it is seen in | different ways. And what would be an answer from one point of view is |
| Tx:27.38 | A double question asks and answers, both attesting the same thing in | different form. |
| Tx:27.42 | not entailed within the question asked. It offers something new and | different from the question. How could it be answered if it but |
| Tx:27.50 | them all. This is because they really are the same despite their | different forms. All learning aims at transfer, which becomes |
| Tx:27.51 | were not your own. And it will also be apparent that your many | different problems will be solved as any one of them has been |
| Tx:27.52 | the power of your learning will be proved to you by all the many | different witnesses it finds. Your brother first among them will be |
| Tx:27.52 | are a thousand more. Each one may seem to have a problem which is | different from the rest. Yet they are solved together. And their |
| Tx:27.55 | of pain.” These witnesses are joined by many more. Each one seems | different because it has a different name, and so it seems to answer |
| Tx:27.55 | are joined by many more. Each one seems different because it has a | different name, and so it seems to answer to a different sound. |
| Tx:27.55 | because it has a different name, and so it seems to answer to a | different sound. Except for this, the witnesses of sin are all alike. |
| Tx:27.59 | is bound by laws which it came solely to undo! The laws of sin have | different witnesses with different strengths. And they attest to |
| Tx:27.59 | came solely to undo! The laws of sin have different witnesses with | different strengths. And they attest to different sufferings. Yet to |
| Tx:27.59 | different witnesses with different strengths. And they attest to | different sufferings. Yet to the One Who sends forth miracles to |
| Tx:27.60 | The laws which call them | different are dissolved and shown as powerless. The purpose of a |
| Tx:27.71 | the choice is split between a tiny you and an enormous world, with | different dreams about the truth in you. The gap between reality and |
| Tx:27.77 | hurtful. Above all, it tries to teach itself its pains and joys are | different and can be told apart. |
| Tx:27.89 | none exist, and He will teach you how each one is caused. None has a | different cause from all the rest, and all of them are easily undone |
| Tx:28.14 | Its effects. There never was a cause beside It that could generate a | different past or future. Its effects are changelessly eternal, |
| Tx:28.42 | for in the gap no stable self exists. What is the same seems | different because what is the same appears to be unlike. His dreams |
| Tx:29.37 | in every dream that has been kept apart from use by Him Who sees a | different function for a dream. When dreams are shared, they lose the |
| Tx:29.38 | endless strife and misery and pain? These questions are the same in | different form. Forgiveness is your peace, for herein lies the end of |
| Tx:30.14 | you have already gotten angry, and your fear of being answered in a | different way from what your version of the question asks will gain |
| Tx:30.82 | every situation could each one be open to interpretation which is | different every time you think of it. You add an element into the |
| Tx:30.83 | the ease with which these labels change with other judgments made on | different aspects of experience. And then in looking back you think |
| Tx:30.84 | But it must accord one meaning to them all. If they are given | different meanings, it must be that they reflect but different |
| Tx:30.84 | they are given different meanings, it must be that they reflect but | different purposes. And this is all the meaning that they have. Can |
| Tx:30.86 | purpose is the end of all ideas of sacrifice, which must assume a | different purpose for the one who gains and him who loses. There |
| Tx:30.86 | no thought of sacrifice apart from this idea. And it is this idea of | different goals which makes perception shift and meaning change. In |
| Tx:30.87 | really be established while the symbols which are used mean | different things? The Holy Spirit's goal gives one interpretation, |
| Tx:31.7 | The lessons to be learned are only two. Each has its outcome in a | different world. And each world follows surely from its source. The |
| Tx:31.14 | you think you must decide on anything. Neither is true. Nor are they | different. Yet must we see them both before you can look past them to |
| Tx:31.14 | both before you can look past them to the one alternative that is a | different choice. But not in dreams you made that this might be |
| Tx:31.17 | he to you. Between these two is choice because from them there is a | different outcome. If he be the leader or the follower to you, it |
| Tx:31.21 | one answer to them all. Because He hears one Voice, He cannot hear a | different answer from the one He gave when God appointed Him His only |
| Tx:31.24 | asks for what you want and needs the same as you. It takes perhaps a | different form in him, but it is not the form you answer to. He asks |
| Tx:31.26 | condemn. As you prepare to make a choice that will result in | different outcomes, there is first one thing that must be |
| Tx:31.34 | made that problems could not be escaped. Be not deceived by all the | different names its roads are given. They have but one end. And each |
| Tx:31.38 | to learn to find a road the world does not contain. The search for | different pathways in the world is but the search for different forms |
| Tx:31.38 | The search for different pathways in the world is but the search for | different forms of truth. And this would keep the truth from being |
| Tx:31.40 | teach no more than that the power of decision cannot lie in choosing | different forms of what is still the same illusion and the same |
| Tx:31.56 | that it thinks. And what can think has choice and can be shown that | different thoughts have different consequence. So it can learn that |
| Tx:31.56 | can think has choice and can be shown that different thoughts have | different consequence. So it can learn that everything it thinks |
| Tx:31.76 | God and of salvation, and the love of guilt and death, they all are | different names for just one error—that there is a space between |
| Tx:31.93 | step from there to Heaven. To your tired eyes I bring a vision of a | different world, so new and clean and fresh you will forget the pain |
| W1:I.3 | The purpose of these exercises is to train the mind to a | different perception of everything in the world. The workbook is |
| W1:I.3 | that each exercise be repeated several times a day, preferably in a | different place each time and, if possible, in every situation in |
| W1:4.3 | a major exercise and will be repeated from time to time in somewhat | different form. The aim here is to train you in the first steps |
| W1:4.3 | of training your mind to recognize what is the same and what is | different. In using your thoughts for application of the idea for |
| W1:5.1 | jealousy, or any number of forms, all of which will be perceived as | different. This is not true. However, until you learn that form does |
| W1:5.10 | for no more than a minute or so, and try to identify a number of | different forms of upset that are disturbing you, regardless of the |
| W1:10.2 | time we have used this kind of idea. The form is only slightly | different. This time the idea is introduced with “My thoughts” |
| W1:13.4 | a minute or so at most each time, are to be practiced in a somewhat | different way from the preceding ones. With eyes closed, repeat |
| W1:15.3 | we go along, you may have many “light episodes.” They may take many | different forms, some of them quite unexpected. Do not be afraid of |
| W1:23.9 | realize that thoughts of attack and of being attacked are not | different, you will be ready to let the cause go. |
| W1:24.4 | mind as part of the desired outcome and also that these goals are on | different levels and often conflict. |
| W1:24.7 | and so on. Try to cover as many | different kinds of outcome as may honestly occur to you, even if some |
| W1:32.2 | worlds, which are actually the same. However, since you see them as | different, the practice periods for today will again include two |
| W1:35.3 | The idea for today presents a very | different view of yourself. By establishing your Source, it |
| W1:35.3 | describes you as you must really be in truth. We will use a somewhat | different kind of application for today's idea because the emphasis |
| W1:44.1 | cannot coexist, but light and life must go together, being but | different aspects of creation. |
| W1:64.6 | It is impossible that any decision on earth can have a content | different from just this one simple choice. That is the only choice |
| W1:66.1 | just a connection between them; they are the same. Their forms are | different, but their content is completely one. |
| W1:66.4 | the function He gave you must be happiness, even if it appears to be | different. Today's exercises are an attempt to go beyond these |
| W1:66.13 | giant stride in the perception of the same as the same and the | different as different. On one side stand all illusions. All truth |
| W1:66.13 | in the perception of the same as the same and the different as | different. On one side stand all illusions. All truth stands on the |
| W1:71.3 | and an assertion in which you believe that says, “If this were | different, I would be saved.” The change of mind that is necessary |
| W1:75.2 | The old one has left no trace upon it in its passing. Today we see a | different world because the light has come. |
| W1:76.4 | that thinks these things. You call them laws and put them under | different names in a long catalogue of rituals that have no use and |
| W1:76.8 | begin the longer practice period today with a short review of the | different kinds of “laws” we have believed we must obey. These would |
| W1:78.8 | this Son of God in his reality and truth that we may look on him a | different way and see our savior shining in the light of true |
| W1:79.3 | you are still uncertain about what the problem is. A long series of | different problems seems to confront you, and as one is settled the |
| W1:79.4 | to present you with a vast number of problems, each requiring a | different answer. This perception places you in a position in which |
| W1:79.7 | that we already know. We will try to free our minds of all the many | different kinds of problems that we think we have. We will try to |
| W1:87.4 | see. You stand with me in light, [name]. In the light this will look | different. |
| W1:92.7 | cannot see a purpose in forgiveness and in love. It sees all others | different from itself and nothing in the world that it would share. |
| W1:93.3 | this, not from the point of view of what you think, but from a very | different reference point from which such idle thoughts are |
| W1:99.1 | something amiss that needs corrective change, something apart or | different from the Will of God. Thus do both terms imply the thought |
| W1:105.4 | Accept God's peace and joy, and you will learn a | different way of looking at a gift. God's gifts will never lessen |
| W1:108.4 | Here are both giving and receiving seen as | different aspects of one Thought Whose truth does not depend on which |
| W1:127.1 | Perhaps you think that | different kinds of love are possible. Perhaps you think there is a |
| W1:127.9 | behind us, never more to be remembered. And we raise our eyes upon a | different present, where a future shines unlike the past in every |
| W1:128.2 | everything must serve the purpose you have given it until you see a | different purpose there. The only purpose worthy of your mind this |
| W1:131.13 | I ask to see a | different world and think a different kind of thought from those I |
| W1:131.13 | I ask to see a different world and think a | different kind of thought from those I made. The world I seek I did |
| W1:138.6 | resolved with it, for all decisions but conceal this one by taking | different forms. Here is the final and the only choice in which is |
| W1:140.3 | The happy dreams the Holy Spirit brings are | different from the dreaming of the world, where one can merely dream |
| W1:140.7 | have no substance, no reality, no core, and nothing that is truly | different? |
| W1:140.11 | all of them as one. They are the same. We have no need to make them | different and thus delay the time when we can hear our Father speak |
| W1:157.1 | are heard. This day is holy, for it ushers in a new experience, a | different kind of feeling and awareness. You have spent long days and |
| W1:159.7 | when it was made. For here it is repaired, made new again but in a | different light. What was to be the home of sin becomes the center of |
| W1:160.1 | remains an alien to the part of you which thinks that it is real but | different from yourself. Who could be sane in such a circumstance? |
| W1:160.2 | our midst who comes from an idea so foreign to the truth he speaks a | different language, looks upon a world truth does not know, and |
| W1:161.3 | to the Holy Spirit that He may employ them for a purpose which is | different from the one we gave to them. Yet He can use but what we |
| W1:161.3 | we gave to them. Yet He can use but what we made to teach us from a | different point of view, so we can see a different use in everything. |
| W1:161.3 | we made to teach us from a different point of view, so we can see a | different use in everything. |
| W1:164.4 | in practicing today will bring rewards so great and so completely | different from all things you sought before that you will know that |
| W1:167.1 | There are not | different kinds of life, for life is like the truth. It does not have |
| W1:167.4 | source and take on qualities the source does not contain, becoming | different from their own origin, apart from it in kind as well as |
| W1:169.3 | it does not know and thus is ready to accept a state completely | different from experience with which it is familiarly at home. |
| W1:181.4 | and future goals. You have been quite preoccupied with how extremely | different the goals this course is advocating are from those you held |
| W1:184.1 | it. This space you lay between all things to which you give a | different name—all happenings in terms of place and time, all |
| W1:184.14 | And though we use a | different name for each awareness of an aspect of God's Son, we |
| W1:184.15 | and You Who are their One Creator. What we made and call by many | different names is but a shadow we have tried to cast across Your Own |
| W1:185.3 | no two can share the same intent. To each the hero of the dream is | different—the outcome wanted not the same for both. Loser and |
| W1:185.3 | patterns, as the ratio of gain to loss and loss to gain takes on a | different aspect or another form. |
| W1:186.3 | trust He holds in you who are His Son. It does not ask that you be | different in any way from what you are. What could humility request |
| W1:189.3 | This is the world the Love of God reveals. It is so | different from the world you see through darkened eyes of malice and |
| W1:193.5 | thought, the same in all of them. The form alone is changed, with | different circumstances and events, with different characters and |
| W1:193.5 | form alone is changed, with different circumstances and events, with | different characters and different themes apparent but not real. They |
| W1:193.5 | different circumstances and events, with different characters and | different themes apparent but not real. They are the same in |
| W1:200.8 | this world behind. But peace begins within the world perceived as | different and leading from this fresh perception to the gate of |
| W2:WIS.2 | Yet can the goal of striving change. And now the body serves a | different aim for striving. What it seeks for now is chosen by the |
| W2:295.1 | me. For all of us must be redeemed together. Fear appears in many | different forms, but love is one. |
| W2:311.1 | Let us not use it today but make a gift of it to Him Who has a | different use for it. He will relieve you of the agony of all the |
| W2:314.1 | From new perception of the world there comes a future very | different from the past. The future now is recognized as but |
| W2:345.1 | to help me with the problems I perceive. Father, in Heaven it is | different, for there, there are no needs. But here on earth, the |
| M:2.3 | long ago passed by is looked upon as a new thought, a fresh idea, a | different approach. Because your will is free, you can accept what |
| M:3.1 | no set teaching level. Each teaching-learning situation involves a | different relationship at the beginning, although the ultimate goal |
| M:3.3 | but the illusion of levels of teaching seems to be something | different. Perhaps the best way to demonstrate that these levels |
| M:3.3 | Salvation is always ready and always there. God's teachers work at | different levels, but the result is always the same. |
| M:4.1 | They do not look alike to the body's eyes, they come from vastly | different backgrounds, their experiences of the world vary greatly, |
| M:4.5 | unless the perceiver is in a position where he must see things in a | different light? He is not yet at a point at which he can make the |
| M:5.10 | that all of them have the same purpose and therefore are not really | different. They seek for God's Voice in this brother who would so |

| M:19.2 | small step in the direction of the other. The path becomes quite | different as one goes along. Nor could all the magnificence, the |
| M:20.1 | us consider each of these questions separately, for each reflects a | different step along the way. |

| Tx:31.1 | true? Only unwillingness to learn it could make such an easy lesson | difficult. How hard is it to see that what is false cannot be true, |
| Tx:31.4 | more than this. You have continued, taking every step, however | difficult, without complaint until a world was built that suited you. |
| Tx:31.5 | and teach you that Its lessons are not true, too hard to learn, too | difficult to see, and too opposed to what is really true. Yet you |

| Tx:31.39 | the other way will not advance the purpose to be found. If this be | difficult to understand, then is this course impossible to learn. But |
| Tx:31.66 | you are. Undoing truth would be impossible. But concepts are not | difficult to change. One vision, clearly seen, that does not fit the |
| Tx:31.81 | of fear. This is temptation, nothing more than this. Can this be | difficult to choose against? Consider what temptation is, and see the |

| W1:64.10 | and then to thinking about them and about nothing else. This will be | difficult at first particularly, since you are not proficient in the |

| Tx:7.107 | being out of accord with God's laws. The world perceives orders of | difficulty in everything. This is because the ego perceives nothing |

| Tx:31.92 | this, and you will see all pain in every form wherever it occurs but | disappear as mists before the sun. A miracle has come to heal God's |

| W1:94.1 | you. The sounds of this world are still, the sights of this world | disappear, and all the thoughts that this world ever held are wiped |
| W1:107.1 | unrecognized for what they are? Where truth has entered, errors | disappear. They merely vanish, leaving not a trace by which to be |

| W1:168.4 | you see a light that covers all the world in love and watch fear | disappear from every face as hearts rise up and claim the light as |
| W1:184.14 | we use in practicing. And through Its use, all foolish separations | disappear which kept us blind. And we are given strength to see |
| W1:187.7 | Illusions recognized must | disappear. Accept not suffering, and you remove the thought of |

| W1:192.4 | Forgiveness gently looks upon all things unknown in Heaven, sees them | disappear, and leaves the world a clean and unmarked slate on which |

| W2:WIW.1 | light, and one which leads to truth, where all the world must | disappear and all its errors vanish. Now its source has gone, and its |

disorientation (3) | ||

| Tx:9.23 | that the nightmare is real. Having made it real, he then attempts to | dispel its effects by depreciating the importance of the dreamer. |
| Tx:10.39 | the ego's thought system because together we have the lamp that will | dispel it, and since you realize you do not want it, you must be |
| Tx:10.40 | of all that stands in the way of knowledge? And how else can one | dispel illusions except by looking at them directly without |
| Tx:10.41 | by definition, and to look upon darkness through light must | dispel it. Let us begin this lesson in “ego dynamics” by |
| Tx:10.89 | and because you are deceived by what you see, you need reality to | dispel your fears. |
| Tx:11.13 | for it by giving it? The Holy Spirit's interpretation of fear does | dispel it, for the awareness of truth cannot be denied. Thus does the |
| Tx:11.98 | You cannot | dispel guilt by making it real and then atoning for it. This is the |
| Tx:12.9 | nothing, and if you will but bring it to the light, the light will | dispel it. And then no dark cloud will remain between you and the |
| Tx:12.10 | it would be easy enough for the Holy Spirit to show it to you and | dispel it, without the need for you to raise it to awareness |
| Tx:13.25 | totally insane and has no reason. The Holy Spirit seeks not to | dispel reality. If guilt were real, Atonement would not be. The |
| Tx:13.25 | were real, Atonement would not be. The purpose of Atonement is to | dispel illusions, not to establish them as real and then forgive them. |
| Tx:14.17 | hidden from it. There is no darkness that the light of love will not | dispel, unless it is concealed from love's beneficence. What is kept |
| Tx:22.41 | they be to see you come among them, offering Christ's forgiveness to | dispel their faith in sin. |

| Tx:3.14 | really thinks this way? It is so essential that all such thinking be | dispelled that we must be very sure that nothing of this kind remains |
| Tx:7.73 | or you have accepted it as you. All illusions about the Sonship are | dispelled together, as they were made together. Teach no one that he |
| Tx:10.40 | not real. We have accepted the fact already that its effects can be | dispelled merely by denying their reality. The next step is obviously |
| Tx:12.4 | ego cannot protect you against truth, and in its presence the ego is | dispelled. |
| Tx:21.66 | a burden to you? In madness, yes. And yet what madness sees must be | dispelled by reason. Reason assures you Heaven is what you want, and |
| Tx:22.59 | look away from it and toward each other. And let the darkness be | dispelled by Him Who knows the light and lays it gently in each quiet |
| W1:92.5 | is an idol falsely worshiped and adored that strength may be | dispelled and darkness rule where God appointed that there should be |
| W2:WIHS.1 | bridge that He provides are dreams all carried to the truth, to be | dispelled before the light of knowledge. There are sights and sounds |
| M:5.10 | thus brought to truth, and truth is not brought to them. So are they | dispelled, not by the will of another but by the union of the One |
dispelling (5) | ||
| Tx:7.90 | you are deciding against the belief that you can be alone, thus | dispelling the idea of separation and affirming your true |
| Tx:8.27 | you, and your problem in accepting it is the problem of this world. | Dispelling it is salvation, and in this sense I am the salvation of |
| Tx:11.98 | atoning for it. This is the ego's plan, which it offers instead of | dispelling it. The ego believes in atonement through attack, being |
| Tx:13.70 | joyous opportunity to learn that nothing has no power. And by not | dispelling darkness, he became afraid of darkness and of light. The |
| W1:16.1 | The idea for today is a beginning step in | dispelling the belief that your thoughts have no effect. Everything |
dispels (4) | ||
| Tx:1.43 | to the Soul, and the miracle acknowledges only the truth. It thus | dispels man's illusions about himself and puts him in communion with |
| Tx:11.99 | and if it is real, there is no way to overcome it. The Holy Spirit | dispels it simply through the calm recognition that it has never |
| W1:111.3 | strength, the gift of God to me. My weakness is the dark His gift | dispels by giving me His strength to take its place. |
| W1:136.1 | it cannot be at all. When this is seen, healing is automatic. It | dispels this meaningless illusion by the same approach that carries |
dispersions (1) | ||
| Tx:2.38 | each other, and they established differences, divisions, cleavages, | dispersions, and all the other concepts related to the increasing |
dispirited (4) | ||
| Tx:4.1 | but to be inspired is to be in the spirit. To be egocentric is to be | dispirited, but to be Self-centered in the right sense is to be |
| Tx:4.68 | God created. Why do you believe it is harder for me to inspire the | dispirited or to stabilize the unstable? I do not believe that there |
| Tx:7.31 | the opposite of dispiriting and therefore means to make joyous. The | dispirited are depressed, because they believe that they are |
| Tx:15.12 | Whenever you are tempted to be | dispirited by the thought of how long it would take to change your |
dispiritedly (1) | ||
| Tx:8.83 | you give it? Under which teacher did you place it? Whenever you wake | dispiritedly, it was not of the Holy Spirit. Only when you awaken |
dispiriting (3) | ||
| Tx:4.2 | you are disclaiming knowledge instead of affirming it and are thus | dispiriting yourself. Do not embark on foolish journeys, because they |
| Tx:4.62 | Know it offers you nothing. When you have given up this voluntary | dispiriting, you will see how your mind can focus and rise above |
| Tx:7.31 | that we have already used the term. Inspiration is the opposite of | dispiriting and therefore means to make joyous. The dispirited are |
displace (2) | ||
| Tx:13.21 | by the Holy Spirit, and it is that which makes them pure. [If you | displace your guilt upon them, the Holy Spirit cannot use them.] For |
| Tx:13.22 | there. It is inevitable that those who suffer guilt will attempt to | displace it, because they do believe in it. Yet, though they suffer, |
displaced (3) | ||
| Tx:13.20 | is diverted, must be true and must be fearful, or you would not have | displaced the guilt onto what you believed to be less fearful. You |
| Tx:18.50 | And you have done a stranger thing than you yet realize. You have | displaced your guilt to your bodies from your minds. Yet a body |
| M:13.1 | so both can finally disappear. The first illusion, which must be | displaced before another thought system can take hold, is that it is |
displacement (3) | ||
| Tx:13.20 | can see the source of pain where it is not. The doubtful service of | displacement is to hide the real source of your guilt and keep from |
| Tx:13.20 | and keep from your awareness the full perception that it is insane. | Displacement always is maintained by the illusion that the source, |
| Tx:31.47 | concept of the self was made to teach. It is a lesson in a terrible | displacement and a fear so devastating that the face which smiles |
displeases (1) | ||
| W1:72.3 | does? A person says something we do not like; he does something that | displeases us, he “betrays” his hostile thoughts in his behavior. |
disposal (6) | ||
| Tx:1.69 | dictates of tyrants. To change your mind means to place it at the | disposal of true Authority. |
| Tx:1.85 | 51. The miracle is the only device which man has at his immediate | disposal for controlling time. Only revelation transcends time, |
| Tx:1.90 | could be better off is the reason why man has this mechanism at his | disposal. |
| Tx:5.59 | that of the Holy Spirit, because your mind has all the means at its | disposal to side with Heaven or earth, as it elects. But again, let |
| Tx:9.59 | factors outside yourself. You must learn that time is solely at your | disposal, and that nothing in the world can take this responsibility |
| Tx:19.21 | wholly true, and necessarily protected with every defense at its | disposal. For here lies its “best” defense which all the others |
dispossess (2) | ||
| Tx:19.41 | Why would you want peace homeless? What do you think that it must | dispossess to dwell with you? What seems to be the cost you are so |
| Tx:19.60 | think peace would rob you of. This is what you believe that it would | dispossess and leave you homeless. And it is this for which you would |

| W1:160.3 | and let you be a stranger to yourself? No one would let himself be | dispossessed so needlessly unless he thought there was another home |
dispossession (1) | ||
| Tx:4.18 | of His creations, who have chosen to leave it empty by their own | dispossession. Yet His home will stand forever and is ready for you |
disproportionate (2) | ||
| Tx:17.38 | hard to see at all beneath the heavy shadows of its enormous and | disproportionate enclosure. The other is lightly framed and hung in |
| Tx:18.39 | that your contribution and the Holy Spirit's are so extremely | disproportionate. You are still convinced your understanding is a |
dispute (4) | ||
| Tx:3.68 | The | dispute over authorship has left such uncertainty in the minds of men |
| Tx:4.14 | or your learning. Your worth was established by God. As long as you | dispute this, everything you do will be fearful, particularly any |
| Tx:4.15 | are His beloved Son in whom He is well pleased. Do not let your ego | dispute this because the ego cannot know what is as far beyond its |
| Tx:9.93 | this, but that you can think you can and believe you have is beyond | dispute. |
disqualify (1) | ||
| Tx:8.9 | your own experience with the ego's teaching, should not this alone | disqualify it as your future teacher? Yet the ego has done more harm |
disregard (9) | ||
| Tx:8.8 | it is totally confused and totally confusing. Even if you could | disregard the Holy Spirit entirely, which is quite impossible, you |
| Tx:8.9 | possible reason for choosing a teacher such as this? Does the total | disregard of anything it teaches make anything but sense? Is this the |
| Tx:8.11 | leads you steadily along the path of freedom, teaching you how to | disregard or look beyond everything that would hold you back. |
| Tx:21.55 | the witnesses on its behalf are clear. Only the totally insane can | disregard them, and you have gone past this. Reason is a means which |
| Tx:22.30 | ego's opposition to correction leads to its fixed belief in sin and | disregard of errors. It looks on nothing that can be corrected. Thus |
| Tx:22.48 | How likely is it that it will succeed? Can it be difficult to | disregard its feeble squeaks that tell of its omnipotence and would |
| Tx:23.34 | No law of chaos could compel belief but for the emphasis on form and | disregard of content. No one who thinks that one of them is true sees |
| W1:135.18 | make against the truth. Their aim is to select what you approve and | disregard what you consider incompatible with your beliefs of your |
| W1:151.11 | He will select the elements in them that represent the truth and | disregard those aspects which reflect but idle dreams. And He will |

disrupt (3) | ||
| Tx:4.95 | is controlled by its need to protect itself, and it will | disrupt communication when it experiences threat. While this is |
| Tx:15.77 | communication has been restored. And guilt, whose only purpose is to | disrupt communication, has no function here. |
| Tx:24.4 | decisions. Mistake you not the power of these hidden warriors to | disrupt your peace. For it is at their mercy while you decide to |
disrupted (4) | ||
| Tx:2.43 | itself as both a brother and a Son. You know that when defenses are | disrupted, there is a period of real disorientation accompanied by |
| Tx:2.43 | depression. This course is different in that defenses are not being | disrupted but reinterpreted, even though you may experience it as the |
| Tx:4.95 | or judged by the ego as coercive communication which must be | disrupted, the response of breaking communication will nevertheless |
| Tx:17.50 | life into your failing egos. For your relationship has not been | disrupted. It has been saved. |
disruption (3) | ||
| Tx:5.60 | to the ego because its peace is unassailable. It is invulnerable to | disruption because it is whole. Guilt is always disruptive. Anything |
| Tx:14.21 | has no meaning, for its purpose is not communication, but rather the | disruption of communication. If the purpose of language is |
| Tx:19.83 | it seem to be. Death, were it true, would be the final and complete | disruption of communication which is the ego's goal. |

dissociate (4) | ||
| Tx:2.28 | Dissociation is quite similar. You should split off or | dissociate yourself from error but only in defense of integration. |
| Tx:4.85 | has been and always will be totally unaffected by your attempts to | dissociate. The ratio of repression and dissociation varies with the |
| Tx:7.65 | power is God's gift to you, because it is what you are. If you | dissociate your mind from it, you are perceiving the most powerful |
| Tx:9.68 | Unless you know something, you cannot | dissociate it. Knowledge therefore precedes dissociation, and |
dissociated (7) | ||
| Tx:4.90 | back to your own creations, which you do not yet know. What has been | dissociated is still there. |
| Tx:5.34 | Your brother may have | dissociated the Call for God, just as you have. The dissociation is |
| Tx:5.84 | thought system, because he did not include himself in it. This is a | dissociated state, because the thinker cuts himself off from his |
| Tx:6.43 | a part of what you know, because you cannot teach what you have | dissociated. |
| Tx:9.68 | because you are afraid of your dissociation, not of what you have | dissociated. Even in this world's therapy, when dissociated material |
| Tx:9.68 | not of what you have dissociated. Even in this world's therapy, when | dissociated material is accepted, it ceases to be fearful, for the |
| W1:96.6 | Source of strength and sees itself as helpless, limited, and weak. | Dissociated from its function now, it thinks it is alone and |
dissociating (3) | ||
| Tx:4.88 | other. The separated mind cannot maintain the separation except by | dissociating. Having done this, it utilizes repression against all |
| Tx:8.26 | a world that does deny itself everything. It does this simply by | dissociating itself from everything. It is therefore an illusion of |

| Tx:18.68 | for you. Save time for me by only this one preparation and practice, | doing nothing else. “I need do nothing” is a statement of allegiance, |
| Tx:18.70 | will remain with you, giving you rest in the midst of every busy | doing on which you are sent. For from this center will you be |
| Tx:25.4 | Christ appointed you to do, since it is He Who does it. And in the | doing of it will you learn the body merely seems to be the means to |

| Tx:27.86 | The secret of salvation is but this: that you are | doing this unto yourself. No matter what the form of the attack, this |
| Tx:28.10 | the miracle a lesson in allowing Cause to have Its own effects and | doing nothing that would interfere. |
| Tx:28.11 | then, to other minds to share its quietness. And they will join in | doing nothing to prevent its radiant extension back into the mind |

| Tx:28.27 | because the mind acknowledges “this is not done to me, but I am | doing this.” And thus the mind is free to make another choice |
| Tx:28.32 | its effect. Yet separation is but empty space, enclosing nothing, | doing nothing, and as unsubstantial as the empty place between the |
| Tx:31.28 | It is not seen to be a passive thing, obeying your commands and | doing nothing of itself at all. If you are sin you are a body, for |

| W1:5.7 | you, regardless of how much or how little you think it is | doing so. |
| W1:16.2 | You can indeed multiply nothing, but you will not extend it by | doing so. |
| W1:26.11 | If you are | doing the exercises properly, you should have some five or six |
| W1:44.8 | what is needful is a sense of the importance of what you are | doing, its inestimable value to you, and an awareness that you are |
| W1:44.10 | If you are | doing the exercises correctly, you should experience some sense of |
| W1:45.5 | want to do. And we will also try to remember that we cannot fail in | doing what He would have us do. There is every reason to feel |
| W1:46.4 | If you are | doing the exercises well, you should have no difficulty in finding a |
| W1:49.3 | happiest and holiest of thoughts with confidence, knowing that in | doing so we are joining our will with the Will of God. He wants you |
| W1:52.4 | God. Let me learn to give the past away, realizing that in so | doing I am giving up nothing. |
| W1:65.8 | your attention before, but do not strain or make undue effort in | doing this. Then tell yourself: |
| W1:69.7 | If you are | doing the exercises properly, you will begin to feel a sense of being |
| W1:71.12 | to hear His Voice. Refuse not to hear. The very fact that you are | doing the exercises proves that you have some willingness to listen. |
| W1:72.4 | we are exclusively concerned with what he does in a body. We are | doing more than failing to help in freeing him from its limitations. |
| W1:77.5 | assured in this. You are but asking that the Will of God be done. In | doing this, you do not really ask for anything. You state a fact that |
| W1:102.7 | one function. And be sure that you are joining with God's Will in | doing this. |
| W1:134.9 | for this is self-deception. Ask instead, “Should I accuse myself of | doing this?” |
| W1:134.17 | of him, and each time ask yourself “Would I condemn myself for | doing this?” |
| W1:134.20 | Let me perceive forgiveness as it is. Should I accuse myself of | doing this? I will not lay this chain upon myself. |
| W1:136.6 | not for fact. Defenses must make facts unrecognizable. They aim at | doing this, and this they seem to do. Every defense takes fragments |
| M:22.5 | with another's ego and has thus confused him with a body. In so | doing, he has refused to accept the Atonement for himself and can |
| M:23.2 | life. He has recognized himself as God created him, and in so | doing he has recognized all living things as part of him. There is |

| Tx:2.69 | that healing is necessary. Man is not willing to look on what he has | done to himself. Healing is an ability lent to man after the |
| Tx:2.87 | yourself in a position where you need Atonement, because you have | done something loveless, having willed without love. This is |
| Tx:2.95 | us and believe in what you have made. You would never have | done this if you were not afraid of your own thoughts. The vulnerable |
| Tx:4.57 | that God would have you think. Search sincerely for what you have | done and left undone accordingly, and then change your minds to think |
| Tx:4.64 | its accomplishment, and step away from them. Judge how well you have | done this by your own feelings, for this is the one right use of |
| Tx:4.88 | mind cannot maintain the separation except by dissociating. Having | done this, it utilizes repression against all truly natural impulses, |
| Tx:4.101 | but He does want revelation brought to others. This cannot be | done with the actual revelation because its content cannot be |
| Tx:5.2 | to what part or by what part of the Sonship the healing is | done. Every part benefits and benefits equally. |
| Tx:5.26 | The Holy Spirit is the way in which God's Will can be | done on earth as it is in Heaven. Both Heaven and earth are in you, |
| Tx:5.53 | nothing against him, or you hold it against yourself. Teaching is | done in many ways: by formal means, by guidance, and above all by |
| Tx:5.70 | first. It will also turn back to full creation the instant it has | done so. Having given up its thought disorder, the proper ordering of |
| Tx:6.6 | of the separated ones, who always refuse to consider what they have | done to themselves. Projection means anger, anger fosters assault, |
| Tx:6.47 | a great many. The most inventive activities of the ego have never | done more than obscure the question, because you have the answer and |
| Tx:7.55 | of unreality, and results in utter confusion. Your own thinking has | done this because of its power, but your own thinking can also save |
| Tx:7.62 | believe it can attack God and tries to persuade you that you have | done this. If the mind cannot attack, the ego proceeds perfectly |
| Tx:7.96 | have it forever, He gave you the means for keeping it, and you have | done so. Disobeying God's Will is meaningful only to the insane. In |
| Tx:7.98 | but not at their logical outcome. Is it not possible that you have | done the same thing with the premises of God? |
| Tx:8.9 | not this alone disqualify it as your future teacher? Yet the ego has | done more harm to your learning than this alone. Learning is joyful |
| Tx:8.22 | of you. This is your responsibility, because once you have really | done this, you will accept the Atonement for yourself. What other |
| Tx:8.27 | of Him Who sent me to you. You were in darkness until God's Will was | done completely by any part of the Sonship. When this was done, it |
| Tx:8.27 | Will was done completely by any part of the Sonship. When this was | done, it was perfectly accomplished by all. How else could it be |
| Tx:8.56 | Misuse it, and you will misunderstand it, because you have already | done so by misusing it. Interpret anything apart from the Holy |
| Tx:9.22 | make Him appear retaliative and fear His retribution. What they have | done is merely to identify with the ego and, by perceiving clearly |
| Tx:9.65 | Who could have | done this but you? Recognize this gladly, for in this recognition |
| Tx:9.94 | projection, and you will believe that others, and not yourself, have | done this to you. You will receive the message you give, because it |
| Tx:10.67 | see the works I do through you, or you will not perceive that I have | done them unto you. Do not set limits on what you believe I can do |
| Tx:10.67 | through you, or you will not accept what I can do for you. For it is | done already, and unless you give all that you have received, you |
| Tx:10.80 | it and use it. Yet it has been very specific, and you have not | done what it specifically advocates. This is not a course in the play |
| Tx:11.1 | or desert you or enslave you, you will respond as if he had actually | done so, because you have made his error real to you. To interpret |
| Tx:11.1 | real to you. To interpret error is to give it power, and having | done this, you will overlook truth. |
| Tx:11.31 | to you. This is a necessary consequence of what you have | done. You have projected outward what is antagonistic to what is |
| Tx:11.44 | that nothing happened. Therefore, by attacking you have not | done anything. Once you realize this, there is no longer any sense in |
| Tx:11.96 | For guilt establishes that you will be punished for what you have | done and thus depends on one-dimensional time, proceeding from past |
| Tx:13.11 | is the attack upon His Son. The guilty always condemn, and having | done so, they will condemn, linking the future to the past as is the |
| Tx:13.15 | him, for his guilt lies in his secret that he thinks that he has | done this unto you. Would you, then, teach him that he is right in |
| Tx:13.26 | it. The Holy Spirit does what God would have Him do and has always | done so. He has seen separation, but knows of union. He teaches |
| Tx:13.39 | listen to, whatever strange thoughts may occur to you, God's Will is | done. You will find the peace in which He has established you, |
| Tx:13.49 | and learning you are guiltless. How could you learn what has been | done for you, but which you do not know, unless you do what you would |
| Tx:13.49 | do not know, unless you do what you would have to do if it had been | done unto you? Indirect proof of truth is needed in a world made of |
| Tx:13.75 | will simply offer it to you? He will never ask what you have | done to make you worthy of the gift of God. Ask it not therefore of |
| Tx:13.80 | Say to the Holy Spirit only, “Decide for me,” and it is | done. For His decisions are reflections of what God knows about you, |
| Tx:13.88 | before your Father, He will give Himself to you as He has always | done. Giving Himself is all He knows, and so it is all knowledge. For |
| Tx:13.89 | function here? You need not understand creation to do what must be | done before that knowledge would be meaningful to you. God breaks no |
| Tx:14.19 | your belief that you can have them both is meaningless. All you have | done by keeping them apart is lose their meaning by confusing them |
| Tx:16.3 | real and so perpetuate it. Step gently aside and let the healing be | done for you. Keep but one thought in mind and do not lose sight of |
| Tx:16.5 | You are not sure that He will do His part because you have never yet | done yours completely. You will not know how to respond to what you |
| Tx:16.11 | You do not understand them, either in part or whole. Yet you have | done them. Therefore, your understanding cannot be necessary. Yet it |
| Tx:16.12 | To you the miracle cannot seem natural because what you have | done to hurt your minds has made them so unnatural that they do not |
| Tx:16.13 | You have | done miracles, but it is quite apparent that you have not done them |
| Tx:16.13 | You have done miracles, but it is quite apparent that you have not | done them alone. You have succeeded whenever you have reached another |
| Tx:16.21 | look upon it fairly and perceive it was untrue. And He must have | done so from the basis of a very different thought system and one |
| Tx:16.23 | What functions must be there. And it is only if you deny what It has | done that you could possibly deny Its Presence. |
| Tx:16.25 | Your teaching has already | done this, for the Holy Spirit is part of you. Created by God, He |
| Tx:16.36 | would accomplish the impossible. How but in illusion could this be | done? It is essential that we look very closely at exactly what it is |
| Tx:16.72 | completely insane. For the ego remembers everything that you have | done which offended it and seeks retribution of you. The fantasies it |
| Tx:16.78 | it is you who offered them illusions. In the holy instant, this is | done for you in time to bring to you the true condition of Heaven. |
| Tx:17.1 | he has betrayed himself, his brothers, and his God. Yet what is | done in dreams has not been really done. It is impossible to convince |
| Tx:17.1 | and his God. Yet what is done in dreams has not been really | done. It is impossible to convince the dreamer that this is so, for |
| Tx:17.15 | They represent the evil that you think was | done to you. You bring them with you only that you may return evil |
| Tx:17.53 | work. And He has not been lacking in appreciation for all you have | done for Him. Nor does He see the mistakes at all. Have you been |
| Tx:17.65 | from the solution? Yet faith must be where something has been | done and where you see it done. A situation is a relationship, being |
| Tx:17.65 | Yet faith must be where something has been done and where you see it | done. A situation is a relationship, being the joining of thoughts. |
| Tx:17.71 | of faithlessness: You think you hold against the other what he has | done to you. But what you really blame him for is what you did to |
| Tx:18.23 | God. And what this will would have accomplished has never not been | done. |
| Tx:18.44 | happy. And so they must be loving. Their message is, “Thy will be | done,” and not, “I want it otherwise.” The alignment of means and |
| Tx:18.50 | the awareness of Heaven and the loss of your Identity. And you have | done a stranger thing than you yet realize. You have displaced your |
| Tx:18.54 | of vengeance and the perceived source of your guilt. You have | done this to a thing that has no meaning, proclaiming it to be the |
| Tx:18.64 | trying to make still more, but there is one thing you have never | done—not for one instant have you utterly forgotten the body. It |
| Tx:18.86 | How is this | done? It is extremely simple, being based on what this little kingdom |
| Tx:19.10 | past, which you received. You do not use anything your brother has | done before to condemn him now. You freely choose to overlook his |
| Tx:19.14 | love are sent to do they do, returning the glad tidings that it was | done to you who stand together before the altar from which they were |
| Tx:19.26 | protection, for what is deserving punishment must have been really | done. Punishment is always the great preserver of sin, treating it |
| Tx:19.67 | me your illusions and release me from punishment for what I have not | done. So will you learn the freedom that I taught by teaching freedom |
| Tx:20.35 | at peace when, while you are in time, there is so much that must be | done before the way to peace is open. Perhaps this seems impossible |
| Tx:20.67 | had judgment not been made. Desire now its whole undoing, and it is | done for you. |
| Tx:21.16 | yourself no longer that you are helpless in the face of what is | done to you. Acknowledge but that you have been mistaken, and all |
| Tx:21.72 | they have come together but have not joined each other. For had they | done so, hatred would be impossible. The army of the powerless must |
| Tx:21.74 | only ask himself these questions, which he must decide to have it | done for him: |
| Tx:22.21 | and no one undertakes to do what holds no hope of ever being | done. You know what your Creator wills is possible, but what you made |
| Tx:22.60 | is powerless? Is this humility? You do not see what this belief has | done. You see yourself as vulnerable, frail, and easily destroyed and |
| Tx:23.22 | places him beyond correction and beyond forgiveness. What he has | done is thus interpreted as an irrevocable sentence upon himself, |
| Tx:23.23 | other now appears as sensible, made real by what the Son of God has | done both to himself and his Creator. The arrogance on which the laws |
| Tx:24.33 | Himself to hell and to damnation? And do you will that this be | done unto your savior? God calls to you from him to join His Will to |
| Tx:24.33 | and on Himself. Deny them not. They ask of you but that your will be | done. They seek your love that you may love yourself. Love not your |
| Tx:24.57 | your brother lies asleep, till what has been assigned to you is | done and he is risen from the past. He who condemned himself, and you |
| Tx:25.42 | But in the love he shows himself is God made free to let His Will be | done. In each of you, you see the picture of your own belief in what |
| Tx:25.73 | would be given him by you. Yet God ensured that justice would be | done unto the Son He loves and would protect from all unfairness you |
| Tx:25.86 | of the law on which salvation rests—that justice must be | done to all if anyone is to be healed. No one can lose, and everyone |
| Tx:26.25 | Forgiveness thus becomes the means by which he learns he has | done nothing to forgive. Forgiveness always rests upon the one who |
| Tx:26.84 | what is Theirs and will forever be. Now is the Holy Spirit's purpose | done. For They have come! For They have come at last! |
| Tx:27.6 | never sinned—that nothing which his madness bid him do was ever | done or ever had effects of any kind; that no reproach he laid upon |
| Tx:27.14 | is real. And what has consequences must be real because what it has | done is there to see. Forgiveness is not pity which but seeks to |
| Tx:27.15 | is a paradox which reason cannot see. For it maintains what has been | done to you deserves no pardon. And by giving it, you grant your |
| Tx:27.33 | possible until the time when aids are meaningless and learning | done. No learning aid has use which can extend beyond the goal of |
| Tx:27.36 | which your problems are resolved, for what He wills already has been | done. |
| Tx:27.46 | instant are you healed, and in that single instant is all healing | done. |
| Tx:27.62 | Suffering is an emphasis upon all that the world has | done to injure you. Here is the world's demented version of salvation |
| Tx:27.62 | He must be innocent because he knows not what he does, but what is | done to him. Yet is his own attack upon himself apparent still, for |
| Tx:27.82 | the dreamer who perceives the dream as separate from himself and | done to him. Into eternity, where all is one, there crept a tiny mad |
| Tx:27.83 | you did. Except that now you think that what you did is being | done to you. The guilt for what you thought is being placed outside |
| Tx:27.88 | I have | done this thing, and it is this I would undo. |
| Tx:28.1 | to undo. And thus it cancels out the interference to what has been | done. It does not add, but merely takes away. And what it takes away |
| Tx:28.3 | recognition that you have no needs which mean that something must be | done. It is an unselective memory, which is not used to interfere |
| Tx:28.10 | your remembering would witness to is but the fear of God. He has not | done the thing you fear. No more have you. And so your innocence has |
| Tx:28.14 | what he has made is causeless, making no effects at all. He has | done nothing. And in seeing this, he understands he never had a need |
| Tx:28.22 | together and has offered him to show him that his wishes have been | done. Thus does he fear his own attack but sees it at another's |
| Tx:28.22 | what he caused. The miracle does nothing but to show him that he has | done nothing. What he fears is cause without the consequences which |
| Tx:28.27 | The body is released because the mind acknowledges “this is not | done to me, but I am doing this.” And thus the mind is free to make |
| Tx:29.14 | His Presence must be there. For what you now can do could not be | done without the love and grace His Presence holds. |
| Tx:29.64 | it to save you from what you believe you have accomplished and have | done to make you sinful and put out the light within you. Little |
| Tx:30.36 | If you be prisoner, then God Himself could not be free. For what is | done to him whom God so loves is done to God Himself. Think not He |
| Tx:30.36 | could not be free. For what is done to him whom God so loves is | done to God Himself. Think not He wills to bind you, Who has made you |
| Tx:30.54 | deception. You need not concern yourself with how this will be | done, for this you cannot understand. But you will understand that |
| Tx:30.55 | upon the unreal as reality. You are but asked to let your will be | done and seek no longer for the things you do not want. And you are |
| Tx:30.83 | you see another meaning in what went before. What have you really | done except to show there was no meaning there? But you assigned a |
| Tx:31.55 | have gone before these concepts of the self. And something must have | done the learning which gave rise to them. Nor can this be explained |
| Tx:31.64 | may disappear, so that perception finds no hiding place. How is this | done? It is not done at all. What could there be within the universe |
| Tx:31.64 | that perception finds no hiding place. How is this done? It is not | done at all. What could there be within the universe which God |
| Tx:31.64 | there be within the universe which God created that must still be | done? |
| Tx:31.65 | to see the world that will replace the one you made. Your will be | done! In Heaven as on earth, this is forever true. It matters not |
| Tx:31.65 | to feel or think or wish. For God Himself has said, “Your will be | done.” And it is done to you accordingly. |
| Tx:31.65 | or wish. For God Himself has said, “Your will be done.” And it is | done to you accordingly. |
| Tx:31.67 | kind in heart? And what could hurt the truly innocent? Your will be | done, you holy Child of God. It does not matter if you think you are |
| Tx:31.67 | as innocent as Love Itself. And you are worthy that your will be | done! |
| Tx:31.97 | still remains to hide the face of Christ from anyone. Thy Will is | done, complete and perfectly, and all creation recognizes You and |

| W1:69.8 | of God work in you and through you, that His Will and yours may be | done. |
| W1:71.12 | rest of the practice period, and let Him tell you what needs to be | done by you in His plan for your salvation. He will answer you in |
| W1:73.9 | nor deceive us with an illusion of strength. Today let your will be | done. And end forever the insane belief that it is hell in place of |
| W1:77.5 | to be assured in this. You are but asking that the Will of God be | done. In doing this, you do not really ask for anything. You state a |
| W1:93.4 | to be assured that all the evil that you think you did was never | done, that all your “sins” are nothing, that you are as pure and holy |
| W1:93.8 | our longer exercise periods today, which would be most profitable if | done for the first five minutes of every waking hour, we will begin |
| W1:96.8 | His Voice accepted it for you and answered in your name that it was | done. Thus is salvation kept among the thoughts your Self holds dear |
| W1:96.15 | by the Spirit as Itself. Your mind will bless all things. Confusion | done, you are restored, for you have found your Self. |
| W1:99.2 | illusions. Yet it is not truth because it undoes what was never | done. |
| W1:99.4 | What but a thought of God could be this plan by which the never | done is overlooked and sins forgotten which were never real? |
| W1:104.8 | clear the way for Him today by simply recognizing that His Will is | done already and that joy and peace belong to us as His eternal |
| W1:R3.4 | because you did not want to do them for whatever reason should be | done as soon as you have changed your mind about your goal. You are |

| W1:135.12 | is not its own. It waits until it has been taught what should be | done and then proceeds to do it. It does not depend upon itself for |
| W1:135.22 | accomplishment of this today. We make no plans for how it will be | done but realize that our defenselessness is all that is required for |
| W1:136.3 | what you would attempt to do and then proceed to think that it is | done. |

| W1:107.9 | as we are sure we live and hope and breathe and think. We do not | doubt we walk with truth today and count on it to enter into all the |
| W1:108.6 | is tried, the thought behind it can be generalized to other areas of | doubt and double vision. And from there it will extend and finally |
| W1:121.3 | The unforgiving mind is torn with | doubt, confused about itself and all it sees, afraid and angry, weak |
| W1:124.3 | smiles on us and offers us the happiness we gave. Today we will not | doubt His Love for us nor question His protection and His care. |
| W1:128.4 | worth one instant of delay and pain, one moment of uncertainty and | doubt. The worthless offer nothing. Certainty of worth cannot be |
| W1:130.7 | give five minutes to the thought which ends all compromise and | doubt and go beyond them all as one. We will not make a thousand |
| W1:130.10 | thanks expressed in tangible perception and in truth. You will not | doubt what you will look upon. For though it is perception, it is not |
| W1:132.1 | is the truth. A madman thinks the world he sees is real and does not | doubt it. Nor can he be swayed by questioning his thoughts' effects. |
| W1:138.8 | safely undisturbed, apart from question and from reason and from | doubt. |
| W1:139.1 | And what is choice except uncertainty of what we are? There is no | doubt that is not rooted here. There is no question but reflects this |
| W1:139.5 | knows and does not know the truth. You are yourself. There is no | doubt of this, and yet you doubt it. But you do not ask what part of |
| W1:139.5 | the truth. You are yourself. There is no doubt of this, and yet you | doubt it. But you do not ask what part of you can really doubt |
| W1:139.5 | and yet you doubt it. But you do not ask what part of you can really | doubt yourself. It cannot really be a part of you that asks this |
| W1:139.6 | Atonement remedies the strange idea that it is possible to | doubt yourself and be unsure of what you really are. This is the |
| W1:139.7 | the time Atonement is accepted, and they learn it is impossible to | doubt yourself and not to be aware of what you are. Only acceptance |
| W1:139.7 | in the holy Mind of God and in your own. It is so far beyond all | doubt and question that to ask what it must be is all the proof you |
| W1:151.1 | That is not judgment. It is merely an opinion based on ignorance and | doubt. Its seeming certainty is but a cloak for the uncertainty it |
| W1:151.1 | irrational. And its defense seems strong, convincing, and without a | doubt because of all the doubting underneath. |
| W1:151.2 | You do not seem to | doubt the world you see. You do not really question what is shown you |
| W1:151.2 | would you trust them so implicitly? Why but because of underlying | doubt which you would hide with show of certainty? |
| W1:151.5 | is so with stubborn certainty. Yet underneath remains the hidden | doubt that what it shows you as reality with such conviction it does |
| W1:151.6 | the doubts their lord cannot completely vanquish. You believe to | doubt his vassals is to doubt yourself. Yet you must learn to doubt |
| W1:151.6 | cannot completely vanquish. You believe to doubt his vassals is to | doubt yourself. Yet you must learn to doubt their evidence will clear |
| W1:151.6 | to doubt his vassals is to doubt yourself. Yet you must learn to | doubt their evidence will clear the way to recognize yourself and let |
| W1:151.8 | be judge of what you are, for He has certainty in which there is no | doubt, because it rests on certainty so great that doubt is |
| W1:151.8 | which there is no doubt, because it rests on certainty so great that | doubt is meaningless before Its face. Christ cannot doubt Himself. |
| W1:151.8 | so great that doubt is meaningless before Its face. Christ cannot | doubt Himself. The Voice of God can only honor Him, rejoicing in His |
| W1:151.10 | behold the gentle face of Christ in all of them. You will no longer | doubt that only good can come to you who are beloved of God, for He |
| W1:153.21 | Be not afraid nor timid. There can be no | doubt that you will reach your final goal. The ministers of God can |
| W1:156.7 | longer. The approach to God is near. And in the little interval of | doubt which still remains, you may perhaps lose sight of your |
| W1:158.6 | Here is the joining of the world of | doubt and shadows made with the intangible. Here is a quiet place |
| W1:163.1 | often unrecognized. It may appear as sadness, fear, anxiety, or | doubt; as anger, faithlessness, and lack of trust; concern for |
| W1:165.7 | as His Word directs we do. His sureness lies beyond our every | doubt. His love remains beyond our every fear. The thought of Him is |
| W1:181.1 | establishing and holding up your faith in your ability to transcend | doubt and lack of sure conviction in yourself. When you attack a |
| W1:182.8 | silent and at peace, beyond all words, untouched by fear and | doubt, sublimely certain that you are at home. |
| W1:184.6 | assert the world is real. It is for this they stand. They leave no | doubt that what is named is there. It can be seen, as is anticipated. |

| W1:187.1 | before. What seems to make it hard to credit is not this. No one can | doubt that you must first possess what you would give. It is the |
| W1:200.1 | disappointments, bleak despair, and sense of icy hopelessness and | doubt. Seek you no further. There is nothing else for you to find |
| W2:WF.2 | thought is one which makes a judgment that it will not raise to | doubt, although it is not true. The mind is closed and will not be |

| W2:244.1 | his safety and Your Love, for they are one. How can he fear or | doubt or fail to know he cannot suffer, be endangered, or experience |
| W2:256.1 | of who he is? And who would yet remain asleep in heavy clouds of | doubt about the holiness of him whom God created sinless? Here we can |
| W2:286.2 | traveled far along it to a wholly certain goal. Today we will not | doubt the end which God Himself has promised us. We trust in Him and |
| W2:323.1 | up all suffering, all sense of loss and sadness, all anxiety and | doubt and freely let Your Love come streaming in to his awareness, |
| W2:333.2 | is the light You chose to shine away all conflict and all | doubt and light the way for our return to You. No light but this can |
| M:I.3 | believe about yourself. Its fundamental purpose is to diminish self | doubt. This does not mean that the self you are trying to protect is |
| M:4.12 | There is no challenge to a teacher of God. Challenge implies | doubt, and the trust on which God's teachers rest secure makes doubt |
| M:4.12 | doubt, and the trust on which God's teachers rest secure makes | doubt impossible. Therefore they can only succeed. In this, as in all |

| M:7.3 | let him remember Who gave the gift and Who received it. Thus is his | doubt corrected. He thought the gifts of God could be withdrawn. That |
| M:7.4 | One of the most difficult temptations to recognize is that to | doubt a healing because of the appearance of continuing symptoms is a |
| M:7.4 | the appearances of love. Yet love without trust is impossible, and | doubt and trust cannot coexist. And hate must be the opposite of |
| M:7.4 | hate must be the opposite of love, regardless of the form it takes. | Doubt not the gift, and it is impossible to doubt its result. This is |
| M:7.4 | of the form it takes. Doubt not the gift, and it is impossible to | doubt its result. This is the certainty that gives God's teachers the |
| M:7.5 | The real basis for | doubt about the outcome of any problem that has been given to God's |
| M:7.6 | of your creation. If you are offering only healing, you cannot | doubt. If you really want the problem solved, you cannot doubt. If |
| M:7.6 | you cannot doubt. If you really want the problem solved, you cannot | doubt. If you are certain what the problem is, you cannot doubt. |
| M:7.6 | you cannot doubt. If you are certain what the problem is, you cannot | doubt. Doubt is the result of conflicting wishes. Be sure of what you |
| M:7.6 | doubt. If you are certain what the problem is, you cannot doubt. | Doubt is the result of conflicting wishes. Be sure of what you want, |
| M:7.6 | is the result of conflicting wishes. Be sure of what you want, and | doubt becomes impossible. |
| M:13.3 | about identity, and no one doubts what he believes he is. He can | doubt all things but never this. |

| Tx:15.62 | who has not yet experienced the lifting of the veil and felt himself | drawn irresistibly into the light behind it can have faith in love |

| Tx:17.18 | Where no reality has entered, there is nothing to intrude upon the | dream of happiness. Yet consider what this means—the more reality |
| Tx:17.19 | which the reality of the other does not enter at all to “spoil” the | dream. And the less the other really brings to it, the “better” it |
| Tx:17.73 | wholly insane, nor no longer alone. For loneliness in God must be a | dream. You whose relationship shares the Holy Spirit's goal are set |
| Tx:18.17 | scream, “I want it thus!” And thus it seems to be. And yet the | dream cannot escape its origin. Anger and fear pervade it, and in an |
| Tx:18.17 | of satisfaction is invaded by the illusion of terror. For the | dream of your ability to control reality by substituting a world |
| Tx:18.18 | though you made it, nor do you realize that the emotions which the | dream produces must come from you. It is the figures in the dream and |

| Tx:18.23 | Yet Heaven is sure. This is no | dream. Its coming means that you have chosen truth, and it has come |

| Tx:18.45 | to love your brother as yourself. Nor is your holy relationship a | dream. All that remains of dreams within it is that it is still a |

| Tx:18.54 | and they have nothing to do with what the body does. It does not | dream of them, and they but make it a liability where it could be an |
| Tx:18.58 | beyond himself. This feeling of liberation far exceeds the | dream of freedom sometimes experienced in special relationships. It |
| Tx:19.85 | savage wish to kill. My brothers, children of our Father, this is a | dream of death. There is no funeral, no dark altars, no grim |
| Tx:20.10 | and laid aside. Listen and hear this carefully, nor think it but a | dream—a careless thought to play with or a toy you would pick up |

| Tx:24.18 | with the key to Heaven in his hand held out to you. Let not the | dream of specialness remain between you. What is one is joined in |
| Tx:24.32 | on which they sleep and call them to come forth and waken from their | dream of death. Yet they hear nothing. They are lost in dreams of |
| Tx:24.32 | would awaken them, and they curse God because He did not make their | dream reality. Curse God and die, but not by Him Who made not death, |
| Tx:24.32 | God and die, but not by Him Who made not death, but only in the | dream. Open your eyes a little; see the savior God gave to you that |
| Tx:24.38 | as real. If he is sinful, then is your reality not real but just a | dream of specialness which lasts an instant, crumbling into dust. |
| Tx:24.39 | Do not defend this senseless | dream in which God is bereft of what He loves and you remain beyond |
| Tx:24.41 | There is no | dream of specialness—however hidden or disguised the form; however |
| Tx:24.41 | dreams, effect and cause are interchanged, for here the maker of the | dream believes that what he made is happening to him. He does not |
| Tx:26.36 | been undone no longer is. And who can stand upon a distant shore and | dream himself across an ocean to a place and time that have long |
| Tx:26.36 | and time that have long since gone by? How real a hindrance can this | dream be to where he really is? For this is fact and does not change |
| Tx:27.18 | him by your healing that his guilt is but the fabric of a senseless | dream. |
| Tx:27.62 | the world's demented version of salvation clearly shown. Like to a | dream of punishment in which the dreamer is unconscious of what |
| Tx:27.69 | No one can waken from a | dream the world is dreaming for him. He becomes a part of someone |
| Tx:27.69 | the world is dreaming for him. He becomes a part of someone else's | dream. He cannot choose to waken from a dream he did not make. |

| Tx:27.71 | and dreams lies not between the dreaming of the world and what you | dream in secret. They are one. The dreaming of the world is but a |
| Tx:27.71 | They are one. The dreaming of the world is but a part of your own | dream you gave away and saw as if it were its start and ending both. |
| Tx:27.71 | it were its start and ending both. Yet was it started by your secret | dream, which you do not perceive, although it caused the part you see |
| Tx:27.71 | not doubt is real. How could you doubt it while you lie asleep and | dream in secret that its cause is real? |
| Tx:27.72 | your death, yet plans that it be lingering and slow—of this you | dream. Yet underneath this dream is yet another in which you become |
| Tx:27.72 | it be lingering and slow—of this you dream. Yet underneath this | dream is yet another in which you become the murderer, the secret |
| Tx:27.73 | other cause it has, nor ever will. Nothing more fearful than an idle | dream has terrified God's Son and made him think that he has lost his |
| Tx:27.73 | denied his Father, and made war upon himself. So fearful is the | dream, so seeming real, he could not waken to reality without the |
| Tx:27.73 | the sweat of terror and a scream of mortal fear unless a gentler | dream preceded his awaking and allowed his calmer mind to welcome, |
| Tx:27.73 | not to fear, the Voice that calls with love to waken him. [A gentler | dream, in which his suffering was healed and where his brother was |
| Tx:27.73 | and with joy. And gave him means to waken without fear. Accept the | dream He gave instead of yours. It is not difficult to [shift] a |

| Tx:27.75 | brother, who unites with you in holy innocence. And from this | dream, the Lord of Heaven will Himself awaken His beloved Son. Dream |
| Tx:27.75 | this dream, the Lord of Heaven will Himself awaken His beloved Son. | Dream of your brother's kindnesses instead of dwelling in your dreams |
| Tx:27.75 | in your dreams on his mistakes. Select his thoughtfulness to | dream about instead of counting up the hurts he gave. Forgive him his |
| Tx:27.76 | what you see as gifts your brother offers represent the gifts you | dream your Father gives to you. Let all your brother's gifts be seen |
| Tx:27.76 | of charity and kindness offered you. And let no pain disturb your | dream of deep appreciation for his gifts to you. |
| Tx:27.77 | body is the central figure in the dreaming of the world. There is no | dream without it, nor does it exist without the dream, in which it |
| Tx:27.77 | world. There is no dream without it, nor does it exist without the | dream, in which it acts as if it were a person, to be seen and be |
| Tx:27.77 | to be seen and be believed. It takes the central place in every | dream, which tells the story of how it was made by other bodies, born |
| Tx:27.78 | call its own. It looks about for special bodies which can share its | dream. Sometimes it dreams it is a conqueror of bodies weaker than |
| Tx:27.78 | a conqueror of bodies weaker than itself. But in some phases of the | dream, it is the slave of bodies that would hurt and torture it. |
| Tx:27.79 | adventures from the time of birth to dying is the theme of every | dream the world has ever had. The “hero” of this dream will never |

| Tx:27.79 | of this dream will never change nor will its purpose. Though the | dream itself takes many forms and seems to show a great variety of |
| Tx:27.79 | variety of places and events wherein its “hero” finds itself, the | dream has but one purpose, taught in many ways. This single lesson |
| Tx:27.80 | Thus are you not the dreamer but the | dream. And so you wander idly in and out of places and events which |
| Tx:27.80 | That this is all the body does is true, for it is but a figure in a | dream. But who reacts to figures in a dream unless he sees them as if |
| Tx:27.80 | for it is but a figure in a dream. But who reacts to figures in a | dream unless he sees them as if they were real? The instant that he |

| Tx:27.82 | the grounds for laughter, not a cause for fear. Let us return the | dream he gave away unto the dreamer who perceives the dream as |
| Tx:27.82 | us return the dream he gave away unto the dreamer who perceives the | dream as separate from himself and done to him. Into eternity, where |
| Tx:27.83 | punishes because of all the sinful things the body does within its | dream. You have no power to make the body stop its evil deeds because |
| Tx:27.85 | but hear Him say, “My brother, Holy Son of God, behold your idle | dream in which this could occur,” and you will leave the holy instant |
| Tx:27.86 | this is still true. For you would not react at all to figures in a | dream you knew that you were dreaming. Let them be as hateful and as |
| Tx:27.86 | have no effect on you unless you failed to recognize it is your | dream. This single lesson learned will set you free from suffering, |
| Tx:28.18 | has happened but that you have put yourself to sleep and dreamed a | dream in which you were an alien to yourself and but a part of |
| Tx:28.18 | which you were an alien to yourself and but a part of someone else's | dream. |
| Tx:28.19 | Do you wish for dreams of healing or for dreams of death? A | dream is like a memory in that it pictures what you wanted shown to |
| Tx:28.19 | dreamer, you perceive this much at least—that you have caused the | dream and can accept another dream as well. But for this change in |
| Tx:28.19 | at least—that you have caused the dream and can accept another | dream as well. But for this change in content of the dream, it must |
| Tx:28.19 | accept another dream as well. But for this change in content of the | dream, it must be realized that it is you who dreamed the dreaming |
| Tx:28.20 | you would exchange for this. This world is causeless, as is every | dream that anyone has dreamed within the world. No plans are possible |
| Tx:28.21 | no cause? Yet if it has no cause, it has no purpose. You may cause a | dream, but never will you give it real effects. For that would change |
| Tx:28.21 | change its cause, and it is this you cannot do. The dreamer of a | dream is not awake but does not know he sleeps. He sees illusions of |
| Tx:28.22 | The miracle establishes you | dream a dream and that its content is not true. This is a crucial |
| Tx:28.22 | The miracle establishes you dream a | dream and that its content is not true. This is a crucial step in |
| Tx:28.22 | was held in place because he did not see that he was author of the | dream, and not a figure in the dream. He gives himself the |
| Tx:28.22 | did not see that he was author of the dream, and not a figure in the | dream. He gives himself the consequences which he dreams he gave his |
| Tx:28.22 | which he dreams he gave his brother. And it is but this the | dream has put together and has offered him to show him that his |
| Tx:28.23 | The separation started with the | dream the Father was deprived of His effects and powerless to keep |
| Tx:28.23 | powerless to keep them since He was no longer their Creator. In the | dream, the dreamer made himself, but what he made has turned against |
| Tx:28.23 | the dreamer had. And as he hated his Creator, so the figures in the | dream have hated him. His body is their slave which they abuse |
| Tx:28.23 | which appears to prove the dreamer could not be the maker of the | dream. Effect and cause are first split off and then reversed, so |
| Tx:28.24 | of causation, not effect. For this confusion has produced the | dream, and while it lasts, will wakening be feared. Nor will the call |
| Tx:28.25 | see that it has no effects. Now are you freed from this much of the | dream; the world is neutral, and the bodies which still seem to move |
| Tx:28.27 | is full of miracles. They stand in shining silence next to every | dream of pain and suffering, of sin and guilt. They are the dream's |
| Tx:28.27 | to be the dreamer rather than deny the active role in making up the | dream. They are the glad effects of taking back the consequence of |
| Tx:28.28 | serene and simple in the rising up to waking and the ending of the | dream. When you accept a miracle, you do not add your dream of fear |
| Tx:28.28 | ending of the dream. When you accept a miracle, you do not add your | dream of fear to one that is already being dreamed. Without support, |
| Tx:28.28 | of fear to one that is already being dreamed. Without support, the | dream will fade away without effects. For it is your support that |
| Tx:28.30 | brother to be sick, for if he is, have you abandoned him to his own | dream by sharing it with him. He has not seen the cause of sickness |
| Tx:28.30 | coming that you want above all things that seem to glisten in the | dream. |
| Tx:28.35 | your brother there. And sickness will be seen without a cause. The | dream of healing in forgiveness lies and gently shows you that you |
| Tx:28.37 | the Atonement for yourself means not to give support to someone's | dream of sickness and of death. It means that you share not his wish |
| Tx:28.37 | with him because that is your wish. And you become a figure in his | dream of pain, as he in yours. So do you both become illusions and |
| Tx:28.37 | identity. You could be anyone or anything, depending on whose evil | dream you share. You can be sure of just one thing—that you are |
| Tx:28.38 | from him who dreams them. Thus you separate the dreamer from the | dream and join [with] one but let the other go. The dream is but |
| Tx:28.38 | dreamer from the dream and join [with] one but let the other go. The | dream is but illusion in the mind. And with the mind you would unite, |
| Tx:28.38 | in the mind. And with the mind you would unite, but never with the | dream. It is the dream you fear and not the mind. You see them as the |
| Tx:28.38 | with the mind you would unite, but never with the dream. It is the | dream you fear and not the mind. You see them as the same because you |
| Tx:28.38 | mind. You see them as the same because you think that you are but a | dream. And what is real and what is but illusion in yourself you do |
| Tx:28.39 | Like you, your brother thinks he is a | dream. Share not in his illusion of himself, for your identity |
| Tx:28.39 | not brother made by what he dreams, nor is his body, “hero” of the | dream, your brother. It is his reality that is your brother, as is |
| Tx:28.40 | yours, he will not be released, and you are kept in bondage to his | dream. And dreams of fear will haunt the little gap, inhabited but by |

| Tx:28.43 | that he was separated from his brother who, by sharing not his | dream, has left the space between them vacant. And the Father comes |

| Tx:28.48 | dreams if you forgive the dreamer and perceive that he is not the | dream he made. And so he cannot be a part of yours, from which you |
| Tx:28.48 | you both are free. Forgiveness separates the dreamer from the evil | dream and thus releases him. |
| Tx:28.49 | Remember if you share an evil | dream, you will believe you are the dream you share. And fearing it, |

| Tx:29.29 | not the one who gave the “proper” role to every figure which the | dream contains. No one can fail but your idea of him, and there is no |
| Tx:29.29 | giving you a chance to help if this becomes the function of the | dream. And dreams of sadness thus are turned to joy. |
| Tx:29.30 | when he fails to take the part which you assigned to him in what you | dream your life was meant to be. He asks for help in every dream he |
| Tx:29.30 | what you dream your life was meant to be. He asks for help in every | dream he has, and you have help to give him if you see the function |
| Tx:29.30 | he has, and you have help to give him if you see the function of the | dream as He perceives its function, Who can utilize all dreams as |

| Tx:29.36 | you in which you have forgiven him for all his dreams of death—a | dream of hope you share with him instead of dreaming evil separate |
| Tx:29.36 | evil separate dreams of hate. Why does it seem so hard to share this | dream? Because unless the Holy Spirit gives the dream its function, |
| Tx:29.36 | hard to share this dream? Because unless the Holy Spirit gives the | dream its function, it was made for hate and will continue in death's |

| Tx:29.37 | been kept apart from use by Him Who sees a different function for a | dream. When dreams are shared, they lose the function of attack and |
| Tx:29.37 | of attack and separation, even though it was for this that every | dream was made. Yet nothing in the world of dreams remains without |
| Tx:29.38 | is your peace, for herein lies the end of separation and the | dream of danger and destruction, sin, and death; of madness and of |
| Tx:29.42 | that it was made to crucify God's Son. For even though it was a | dream of death, you need not let it stand for this to you. Let this |

| Tx:29.49 | the power you ascribe to them. And you pursue them vainly in the | dream because you want their power as your own. |
| Tx:29.50 | Yet where are dreams but in a mind asleep? And can a | dream succeed in making real the pictures it projects outside itself? |
| Tx:29.61 | look to idols that they raise him up? Hear then your story in the | dream you made, and ask yourself if it be not the truth that you |

| Tx:29.63 | All figures in the dream are idols made to save you from the | dream. Yet they are part of what they have been made to save you |
| Tx:29.63 | they have been made to save you from. Thus does an idol keep the | dream alive and terrible, for who could wish for one unless he were |
| Tx:29.63 | and so its worship is the worship of despair and terror and the | dream from which they come. Judgment is an injustice to God's Son, |
| Tx:29.63 | him will not escape the penalty he laid upon himself within the | dream he made. God knows of justice, not of penalty. But in the dream |
| Tx:29.63 | the dream he made. God knows of justice, not of penalty. But in the | dream of judgment, you attack and are condemned and wish to be the |
| Tx:29.64 | There can be no salvation in the | dream as you are dreaming it. For idols must be part of it to save |

| Tx:29.64 | children, it is there. You do but dream, and idols are the toys you | dream you play with. Who has need of toys but children? They pretend |
| Tx:29.64 | play with them. But they are eager to forget that they made up the | dream in which their toys are real, nor recognize their wishes are |
| Tx:29.65 | turned against the child who thought he made them real. Yet can a | dream attack? Or can a toy grow large and dangerous and fierce and |
| Tx:29.66 | children. Put them all away, for you have need of them no more. The | dream of judgment is a children's game in which the child becomes the |
| Tx:29.67 | The real world still is but a | dream. Except the figures have been changed. They are not seen as |
| Tx:29.67 | have been changed. They are not seen as idols which betray. It is a | dream in which no one is used to substitute for something else nor |
| Tx:29.67 | not, for childish things have all been put away. And what was once a | dream of judgment now has changed into a dream where all is joy |
| Tx:29.67 | away. And what was once a dream of judgment now has changed into a | dream where all is joy because that is the purpose which it has. Only |
| Tx:29.67 | here, for time is almost over. And the forms which enter in the | dream are now perceived as brothers, not in judgment but in love. |
| Tx:29.68 | separate the mind from what it thinks. They do not seek to prove the | dream is being dreamed by someone else. And in these dreams a melody |
| Tx:29.69 | pain of self-betrayal and uncertainty, so deep and bitter that the | dream cannot conceal completely all your sense of doom. Your |
| Tx:29.70 | attack. Forgiving dreams are kind to everyone who figures in the | dream. And so they bring the dreamer full release from dreams of |
| Tx:30.28 | you from the ravages of fear. When this has been achieved, the sorry | dream of judgment has forever been undone. But meanwhile, you have |
| Tx:30.31 | Nothing can be caused without some form of union, be it with a | dream of judgment or the Voice for God. Decisions cause results |
| Tx:30.55 | Salvation is a paradox indeed! What could it be except a happy | dream? It asks you but that you forgive all things that no one ever |
| Tx:30.56 | Here does the | dream of separation start to fade and disappear. For here the gap |
| Tx:30.57 | no demands are made of anyone or anything to twist and fit into the | dream of fear. Instead, there is a wish to understand all things |
| Tx:30.58 | of the world is one which all must share if hope be more than just a | dream. |
| Tx:30.90 | changing views of him which you perceive as his reality. The happy | dream about him takes the form of the appearance of his perfect |
| Tx:30.94 | place of what your brother really is. Let no temptation to prefer a | dream allow uncertainty to enter here. Be not made guilty and afraid |
| Tx:30.94 | enter here. Be not made guilty and afraid when you are tempted by a | dream of what he is. But do not give it power to replace the |
| Tx:31.81 | of failing dreams and no remaining hope except to die and end the | dream of fear. This is temptation, nothing more than this. Can this |

| W1:108.1 | instead, to take its place. And now we are at peace forever, for the | dream is over now. |
| W1:121.14 | Forgiveness is the key to happiness. I will awaken from the | dream that I am mortal, fallible, and full of sin and know I am the |

| W1:130.3 | that this is shown to you? What would you wish to keep in such a | dream? |
| W1:131.1 | in the midst of danger, immortality within the darkness of the | dream of death. Who could succeed where contradiction is the setting |

| W1:137.5 | Healing might thus be called a counter-dream which cancels out the | dream of sickness in the name of truth but not in truth itself. Just |
| W1:137.6 | here. For anti-Christ becomes more powerful than Christ to those who | dream the world is real. The body seems to be more solid and more |
| W1:137.6 | to be more solid and more stable than the mind. And love becomes a | dream, while fear remains the one reality that can be seen and |

| W1:140.2 | a magic formula to make him well. Yet he has not awakened from the | dream, and so his mind remains exactly as it was before. He has not |
| W1:140.2 | before. He has not seen the light that would awaken him and end the | dream. What difference does the content of a dream make in reality? |
| W1:140.2 | awaken him and end the dream. What difference does the content of a | dream make in reality? One either sleeps or wakens. There is nothing |
| W1:140.3 | are different from the dreaming of the world, where one can merely | dream he is awake. The dreams forgiveness lets the mind perceive do |
| W1:140.3 | not induce another form of sleep, so that the dreamer dreams another | dream. His happy dreams are heralds of the dawn of truth upon the |

| W1:140.4 | sickness can be nothing but a dream is not deceived by forms the | dream may take. Sickness where guilt is absent cannot come, for it is |
| W1:153.4 | in a form so grim that hope of sanity seems but to be an idle | dream, beyond the possible. The sense of threat the world encourages |
| W1:153.8 | not let our happiness slip by because a senseless fragment of a | dream happened to cross our minds, and we mistook the figures in it |
| W1:153.9 | because we are created unassailable, without all thought or wish or | dream in which attack has any meaning. Now we cannot fear, for we |
| W1:156.6 | its quaint absurdity is seen. It is a foolish thought, a silly | dream, not frightening, ridiculous perhaps, but who would waste an |
| W1:156.7 | sight of your Companion, and mistake Him for the senseless, ancient | dream that now is past. |
| W1:159.10 | but follow in the way He has established. Christ has dreamed the | dream of a forgiven world. It is His gift whereby a sweet transition |
| W1:159.10 | from death to life, from hopelessness to hope. Let us an instant | dream with Him. His dream awakens us to truth. His vision gives the |
| W1:159.10 | from hopelessness to hope. Let us an instant dream with Him. His | dream awakens us to truth. His vision gives the means for a return to |

| W1:162.2 | words will not dispel, no thought of sin, and no illusion that the | dream contains that will not fade away before their might. They are |
| W1:182.2 | what we speak of is illusion, not to be considered more than but a | dream. Yet who in simple honesty, without defensiveness and |
| W1:183.3 | Name and all the world responds by laying down illusions. Every | dream the world holds dear has suddenly gone by, and where it seemed |
| W1:185.2 | not be healed. He cannot play with dreams nor think he is himself a | dream. He cannot make a hell and think it real. He wants the peace of |
| W1:185.3 | In dreams no two can share the same intent. To each the hero of the | dream is different—the outcome wanted not the same for both. Loser |
| W1:185.4 | Yet compromise alone a | dream can bring. Sometimes it takes the form of union, but only the |
| W1:185.4 | the form of union, but only the form. The meaning must escape the | dream, for compromising is the goal of dreaming. Minds cannot unite |
| W1:185.5 | wanting. Now he seeks to go beyond them, recognizing that another | dream would offer nothing more than all the others. Dreams are one to |
| W1:185.7 | of God. This is no idle wish. These words do not request another | dream be given us. They do not ask for compromise nor try to make |
| W1:185.12 | It is this attribute that sets the gifts of God apart from every | dream that ever seemed to take the place of truth. |

| W1:193.9 | abandoned, is revered no more. These are the words which end the | dream of sin and rid the mind of fear. These are the words by which |
| W1:195.10 | way to Him and shorten our learning time by more than you could ever | dream of. Gratitude goes hand in hand with love, and where one is, |
| W1:198.3 | Forgiveness sweeps all other dreams away, and though it is itself a | dream, it breeds no others. All illusions save this one must multiply |
| W1:198.3 | illusions end. Forgiveness is the end of dreams because it is a | dream of waking. It is not itself the truth. Yet does it point to |
| W1:198.3 | be and gives direction with the certainty of God Himself. It is a | dream in which the Son of God awakens to his Self and to his Father, |

| W2:WIB.3 | The body is a | dream. Like other dreams, it sometimes seems to picture happiness but |
| W2:WIB.3 | picture happiness but can quite suddenly revert to fear, where every | dream is born. For only love creates in truth, and truth can never |
| W2:263.1 | I would not perceive such dark and fearful images. A madman's | dream is hardly fit to be my choice instead of all the loveliness |

| W2:278.2 | and have brought a dream of fear into my mind. Today I would not | dream. I choose the way to You instead of madness and instead of |
| W2:284.1 | with any cause at all. And suffering of any kind is nothing but a | dream. Such is the truth—at first to be but said and then repeated |
| W2:290.1 | Yet I would not allow my mind to be deceived by the belief the | dream I made is real an instant longer. This the day I seek my |

| W2:WILJ.2 | it was born, and there it ends as well. And all the figures in the | dream in which the world began go with it. Bodies now are useless and |
| W2:WILJ.4 | can heal all sorrow, wipe away all tears, and gently waken from his | dream of pain the Son whom God acknowledges as His. Be not afraid of |
| W2:313.1 | Now let His true perception come to me that I may waken from the | dream of guilt and look within upon my sinlessness which You have |
| W2:322.1 | me. His memory abides in every gift that I receive of Him. And every | dream serves only to conceal the Self which is God's only Son, the |
| W2:330.1 | that He be our Identity and thus escape forever from all things the | dream of fear appears to offer us. |
| W2:331.1 | has left Itself? There is no will except the will of Love. Fear is a | dream and has no will that can conflict with Yours. Conflict is |
| W2:332.1 | own futility. Yet with forgiveness does the light shine through the | dream of darkness, offering it hope and giving it the means to |
| W2:337.2 | I thought I sinned, but I accept Atonement for myself. Father, my | dream is ended now. Amen. |
| W2:344.1 | empty place where nothing ever was or is or will be. Who can share a | dream? And what can an illusion offer me? Yet he whom I forgive will |

| W2:FL.2 | in the end, because it is this ending God Himself appointed. In the | dream of time, it seems to be far off. And yet in truth, it is |
| W2:FL.3 | world. It is the goal that God has given us. It is His ending to the | dream we seek, and not our own. For all that we forgive we will not |
| W2:FL.5 | from all the wrath we thought belonged to God and found it was a | dream. We are restored to sanity in which we understand that anger is |
| M:4.17 | but the foolish guardians of mad illusions. The more grotesque the | dream, the fiercer and more powerful its defenses seem to be. Yet |
| M:12.6 | are made consciously, with full awareness of their consequences. The | dream says otherwise, but who would put his faith in dreams, once |
| M:12.6 | of dreaming is the real function of God's teachers. They watch the | dream figures come and go, shift and change, suffer and die. Yet they |
| M:12.6 | are not deceived by what they see. They recognize that to behold a | dream figure as sick and separate is no more real than to regard it |
| M:12.6 | of dreams. And it is this God's teachers acknowledge as behind the | dream, beyond all seeing and yet surely theirs. |

| Tx:9.23 | if the dreamer were properly identified as unreal. Yet if the | dreamer is equated with the mind, the mind's corrective power through |
| Tx:17.1 | in dreams has not been really done. It is impossible to convince the | dreamer that this is so, for dreams are what they are because of |
| Tx:27.62 | salvation clearly shown. Like to a dream of punishment in which the | dreamer is unconscious of what brought on the attack against himself, |
| Tx:27.70 | you can choose, the other possibility of cause if you be not the | dreamer of your dreams. And this is what you choose if you deny the |
| Tx:27.73 | You are the | dreamer of the world of dreams. No other cause it has, nor ever will. |
| Tx:27.73 | of yours. It is not difficult to [shift] a dream when once the | dreamer has been recognized. |
| Tx:27.80 | Thus are you not the | dreamer but the dream. And so you wander idly in and out of places |
| Tx:27.82 | not a cause for fear. Let us return the dream he gave away unto the | dreamer who perceives the dream as separate from himself and done to |
| Tx:28.19 | The miracle does not awaken you but merely shows you who the | dreamer is. It teaches you there is a choice of dreams while you are |
| Tx:28.19 | holds all your shreds of memories and dreams. Yet if you are the | dreamer, you perceive this much at least—that you have caused the |
| Tx:28.21 | For that would change its cause, and it is this you cannot do. The | dreamer of a dream is not awake but does not know he sleeps. He sees |
| Tx:28.23 | to keep them since He was no longer their Creator. In the dream, the | dreamer made himself, but what he made has turned against him, taking |
| Tx:28.23 | has turned against him, taking on the role of its creator as the | dreamer had. And as he hated his Creator, so the figures in the dream |
| Tx:28.23 | them. It is their vengeance on the body which appears to prove the | dreamer could not be the maker of the dream. Effect and cause are |
| Tx:28.27 | and guilt. They are the dream's alternative, the choice to be the | dreamer rather than deny the active role in making up the dream. They |
| Tx:28.38 | them but not apart from him who dreams them. Thus you separate the | dreamer from the dream and join [with] one but let the other go. The |
| Tx:28.41 | this you do when you become a passive figure in his dream instead of | dreamer of your own. Identity in dreams is meaningless because the |
| Tx:28.41 | dreamer of your own. Identity in dreams is meaningless because the | dreamer and the dream are one. Who shares a dream must be the dream |
| Tx:28.48 | one you [want] to have. You share no evil dreams if you forgive the | dreamer and perceive that he is not the dream he made. And so he |
| Tx:28.48 | of yours, from which you both are free. Forgiveness separates the | dreamer from the evil dream and thus releases him. |
| Tx:29.30 | as means to serve the function given Him. Because He loves the | dreamer not the dream, each dream becomes an offering of love. For at |
| Tx:29.70 | are kind to everyone who figures in the dream. And so they bring the | dreamer full release from dreams of fear. He does not fear his |

| Tx:2.15 | he was asleep. If a light is suddenly turned on while someone is | dreaming a fearful dream, he may initially interpret the light itself |
| Tx:4.10 | The dreamer who doubts the reality of his dream while he is still | dreaming is not really healing the level-split. You have dreamed of a |
| Tx:6.60 | away. His light is always the call to awake, whatever you have been | dreaming. Nothing lasting lies in dreams, and the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:9.65 | is not of God and therefore does not exist. You are at home in God, | dreaming of exile but perfectly capable of awakening to reality. Is |
| Tx:18.19 | form of this same world you see in dreams. All your time is spent in | dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking dreams have different forms, |
| Tx:27.69 | No one can waken from a dream the world is | dreaming for him. He becomes a part of someone else's dream. He |
| Tx:27.69 | up and down according to a senseless plot conceived within the idle | dreaming of the world. |
| Tx:27.71 | in you. The gap between reality and dreams lies not between the | dreaming of the world and what you dream in secret. They are one. The |
| Tx:27.71 | of the world and what you dream in secret. They are one. The | dreaming of the world is but a part of your own dream you gave away |
| Tx:27.77 | The body is the central figure in the | dreaming of the world. There is no dream without it, nor does it |
| Tx:27.78 | The | dreaming of the world takes many forms, because the body seeks in |
| Tx:27.81 | the second part, whose cause lies in the first. No one asleep and | dreaming in the world remembers his attack upon himself. No one |
| Tx:27.86 | would not react at all to figures in a dream you knew that you were | dreaming. Let them be as hateful and as vicious as they may, they |
| Tx:28.19 | dreams while you are still asleep, depending on the purpose of your | dreaming. Do you wish for dreams of healing or for dreams of death? A |
| Tx:28.19 | of the dream, it must be realized that it is you who dreamed the | dreaming that you do not like. It is but an effect which you have |
| Tx:28.27 | until all the steps have been retraced, the ladder gone, and all the | dreaming of the world undone. |
| Tx:28.30 | just because the minds are joined and cannot separate. Yet in the | dreaming has this been reversed, and separate minds are seen as |
| Tx:28.31 | The end of | dreaming is the end of fear, and love was never in the world of |
| Tx:28.36 | This is a feast unlike indeed to those the | dreaming of the world has shown. For here, the more that anyone |
| Tx:29.25 | dreams and wake from some, for you are either sleeping or awake. And | dreaming goes with only one of these. |
| Tx:29.36 | his dreams of death—a dream of hope you share with him instead of | dreaming evil separate dreams of hate. Why does it seem so hard to |
| Tx:29.37 | eternal in this world. Forgiving dreams are means to step aside from | dreaming of a world outside yourself. And leading finally beyond all |
| Tx:29.64 | There can be no salvation in the dream as you are | dreaming it. For idols must be part of it to save you from what you |
| W1:106.4 | for in your dreams. His miracles are true. They will not fade when | dreaming ends. They end the dream instead and last forever, for they |
| W1:140.3 | The happy dreams the Holy Spirit brings are different from the | dreaming of the world, where one can merely dream he is awake. The |
| W1:185.4 | The meaning must escape the dream, for compromising is the goal of | dreaming. Minds cannot unite in dreams. They merely bargain. And what |
| M:12.6 | in dreams, once they are recognized for what they are? Awareness of | dreaming is the real function of God's teachers. They watch the dream |
dreamless (2) | ||
| W1:170.6 | and escape from doubts about your strength and hope of rest in | dreamless quiet. And as love is shorn of what belongs to it and it |
| W1:198.13 | is there tranquil light across the face of earth, made quiet in a | dreamless sleep. And now the Word of God alone remains upon it. Only |
dreams (309) | ||
| Tx:2.13 | eye can sleep, but a sleeping eye can still see. What is seen in | dreams seems to be very real. The Bible mentions that “a deep sleep |
| Tx:3.64 | nightmares or in pleasant disguises in what seem to be his happier | dreams. Nothing that you have refused to accept can be brought into |
| Tx:6.50 | only this is real. You have chosen a sleep in which you have had bad | dreams, but the sleep is not real, and God calls you to awake. There |
| Tx:6.50 | of your dream when you hear Him, because you will be awake. Your | dreams have contained many of the ego's symbols, and they have |
| Tx:6.50 | the truth around you and in you, and you will no longer believe in | dreams because they will have no reality for you. |
| Tx:6.58 | and waking, so that they will understand they need not be afraid of | dreams. Then when bad dreams come, they will call on the light |
| Tx:6.58 | will understand they need not be afraid of dreams. Then when bad | dreams come, they will call on the light themselves to dispel them. |
| Tx:6.60 | not know the difference. The Holy Spirit makes no distinction among | dreams. He merely shines them away. His light is always the call to |
| Tx:6.60 | to awake, whatever you have been dreaming. Nothing lasting lies in | dreams, and the Holy Spirit, shining with the light from God Himself, |
| Tx:6.61 | When your body and your ego and your | dreams are gone, you will know that you will last forever. Many think |
| Tx:8.82 | waking, not from sleeping. Sleep is withdrawing; waking is joining. | Dreams are illusions of joining, taking on the ego's distortions |
| Tx:8.82 | guidance. Yet the Holy Spirit, too, has use for sleep and can use | dreams on behalf of waking if you will let Him. |
| Tx:9.65 | to do so? You know from your own experience that what you see in | dreams you think is real as long as you are asleep. Yet the instant |
| Tx:9.66 | Would you bother to reconcile what happened in conflicting | dreams, or would you dismiss both together if you discovered that |
| Tx:9.67 | will have no wish to sleep but only the will to waken and be glad. | Dreams will be impossible, because you will want only truth, and |
| Tx:9.68 | forgotten. And you have replaced your knowledge by an awareness of | dreams because you are afraid of your dissociation, not of what you |
| Tx:10.66 | of crucifixion still lies heavy on your eyes, but what you see in | dreams is not reality. While you perceive the Son of God as |
| Tx:10.66 | having nightmares. You who are beginning to wake are still aware of | dreams and have not yet forgotten them. The forgetting of dreams and |
| Tx:10.66 | aware of dreams and have not yet forgotten them. The forgetting of | dreams and the awareness of Christ comes with the awakening of others |
| Tx:12.29 | ego teaches that you always encounter your past, and because your | dreams were not holy, the future cannot be, and the present is |
| Tx:12.41 | Yet in the darkness in the private world of sleep, you see in | dreams, although your eyes are closed. And it is here that what you |
| Tx:12.41 | and rule your own perceptions. Yet for this, light must be excluded. | Dreams disappear when light has come and you can see. |
| Tx:12.43 | And seeing what He is, He knows His Father. Beyond your darkest | dreams, He sees God's guiltless Son within you, shining in perfect |
| Tx:12.43 | within you, shining in perfect radiance, which is undimmed by your | dreams. And this you will see as you look with Him, for His vision is |
| Tx:12.67 | made for what you want is the exchange of nightmares for the happy | dreams of love. In these lie your true perceptions, for the Holy |
| Tx:12.67 | lie your true perceptions, for the Holy Spirit corrects the world of | dreams, where all perception is. Knowledge needs no correction. Yet |
| Tx:12.67 | where all perception is. Knowledge needs no correction. Yet the | dreams of love lead unto knowledge. In them you see nothing fearful, |
| Tx:12.76 | dwells. You dwell not here, but in eternity. You travel but in | dreams while safe at home. Give thanks to every part of you that you |
| Tx:13.44 | Can God's Son lose himself in | dreams when God has placed within him the glad call to waken and be |

| Tx:17.1 | has betrayed himself, his brothers, and his God. Yet what is done in | dreams has not been really done. It is impossible to convince the |
| Tx:17.1 | done. It is impossible to convince the dreamer that this is so, for | dreams are what they are because of their illusion of reality. Only |
| Tx:17.12 | become a dream and vanish from his mind. For salvation is the end of | dreams and with the closing of the dream will have no meaning. Who |
| Tx:17.24 | for its reality, while what is kept but witnesses to the reality of | dreams. |

| Tx:17.26 | be lost to you in dreams of vengeance. Relationships in which such | dreams are cherished have excluded me. Let me enter in the Name of |
| Tx:17.34 | all sorts of fanciful and fragmented illusions of love, set with | dreams of sacrifice and self-aggrandizement and interlaced with |
| Tx:17.77 | and dim imaginings of terror, cold fantasies of fear and fiery | dreams of hell. And it was nothing but the intolerable strain of |
| Tx:18.14 | Does not a world that seems quite real arise in | dreams? Yet think what this world is. It is clearly not the world you |
| Tx:18.15 | Dreams are chaotic because they are governed by your conflicting | |
| Tx:18.16 | You recognize that what you see on waking is blotted out in | dreams. Yet on awakening, you do not expect it to be gone. In dreams |
| Tx:18.16 | out in dreams. Yet on awakening, you do not expect it to be gone. In | dreams you arrange everything. People become what you would have them |
| Tx:18.17 | Dreams are perceptual temper tantrums in which you literally scream, | |
| Tx:18.18 | Dreams show you that you have the power to make a world as you would | |
| Tx:18.18 | not be theirs, and the illusion of satisfaction would be gone. In | dreams these features are not obscure. You seem to waken, and the |
| Tx:18.19 | seem to wake to is but another form of this same world you see in | dreams. All your time is spent in dreaming. Your sleeping and your |
| Tx:18.19 | All your time is spent in dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking | dreams have different forms, and that is all. Their content is the |
| Tx:18.19 | your fixed and insane idea that you can change it. In your waking | dreams, the special relationship [has a special place. It is the |
| Tx:18.19 | place. It is the means by which you try to make your sleeping | dreams come true. From this you do not awaken. The special |
| Tx:18.20 | The Holy Spirit, ever practical in His wisdom, accepts your | dreams and uses them as means for waking. You would have used them to |
| Tx:18.20 | them to remain asleep. We once said that the first change, before | dreams disappear, is that your dreams of fear are changed to happy |
| Tx:18.20 | said that the first change, before dreams disappear, is that your | dreams of fear are changed to happy dreams. That is what the Holy |
| Tx:18.20 | dreams disappear, is that your dreams of fear are changed to happy | dreams. That is what the Holy Spirit does in your special |
| Tx:18.22 | not the dream take hold to close your eyes. It is not strange that | dreams can make a world that is unreal. The wish to make it is |
| Tx:18.22 | has been removed because its purpose has been changed from one of | dreams to one of truth. You are not sure of this because you think it |
| Tx:18.22 | may be this that is the dream. You are so used to choosing between | dreams you do not see that you have made, at last, the choice between |
| Tx:18.23 | the Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world—the world of happy | dreams from which awaking is so easy and so natural. For as your |
| Tx:18.23 | is so easy and so natural. For as your sleeping and your waking | dreams represent the same wishes in your mind, so do the real world |
| Tx:18.24 | truth to illusion, reality to fantasy, have walked the way of | dreams. For you have gone from waking to sleeping and on and on to a |
| Tx:18.24 | and on and on to a yet deeper sleep. Each dream has led to other | dreams, and every fantasy which seemed to bring a light into the |
| Tx:18.41 | no purpose. For they are all but aspects of the plan to change your | dreams of fear to happy dreams from which you waken easily to |
| Tx:18.41 | all but aspects of the plan to change your dreams of fear to happy | dreams from which you waken easily to knowledge. Put yourself not in |
| Tx:18.44 | Happy | dreams come true, not because they are dreams, but only because they |
| Tx:18.44 | Happy dreams come true, not because they are | dreams, but only because they are happy. And so they must be loving. |
| Tx:18.45 | yourself. Nor is your holy relationship a dream. All that remains of | dreams within it is that it is still a special relationship. Yet it |
| Tx:20.76 | means by which the Holy Spirit translates your nightmares into happy | dreams; your wild hallucinations that show you all the fearful |
| Tx:21.72 | dream of power and to act out their dream. How would an army act in | dreams? Any way at all. It could be seen attacking anyone with |
| Tx:21.72 | Any way at all. It could be seen attacking anyone with anything. | Dreams have no reason in them. A flower turns into a poisoned spear, |
| Tx:22.18 | and not imagined, illusions must give way to truth and not to other | dreams that are but equally unreal. This is no difference. |
| Tx:22.47 | See how the means and the material of evil | dreams are nothing. In truth you stand together with nothing in |
| Tx:23.34 | to function many times before. In truth it does not function, yet in | dreams, where only shadows play the major roles, it seems most |
| Tx:24.32 | from their dream of death. Yet they hear nothing. They are lost in | dreams of specialness. They hate the call that would awaken them, and |
| Tx:24.41 | the escape from pain—in which you suffer not your condemnation. In | dreams, effect and cause are interchanged, for here the maker of the |
| Tx:24.49 | haunt you in the darkness of the night. He is your savior from the | dreams of fear. He is the healing of your sense of sacrifice and fear |
| Tx:25.34 | nothingness. And all their “evil” thoughts and “sinful” hopes, their | dreams of guilt and merciless revenge, and every wish to hurt and |
| Tx:26.36 | to where he really is? For this is fact and does not change whatever | dreams he has. Yet can he still imagine he is elsewhere and in |
| Tx:27.68 | him, and what he sees is separate from his mind. He cannot doubt his | dreams' reality because he does not see the part he plays in making |
| Tx:27.70 | the other possibility of cause if you be not the dreamer of your | dreams. And this is what you choose if you deny the cause of |
| Tx:27.70 | in time. The choice is yours to make between a sleeping death and | dreams of evil or a happy wakening and joy of life. What could you |
| Tx:27.70 | between but life or death, waking or sleeping, peace or war, your | dreams or your reality? Yet if the choice is really given you, then |
| Tx:27.71 | is split between a tiny you and an enormous world, with different | dreams about the truth in you. The gap between reality and dreams |
| Tx:27.71 | different dreams about the truth in you. The gap between reality and | dreams lies not between the dreaming of the world and what you dream |
| Tx:27.72 | world alike. Here is the cause of suffering, the space between your | dreams and your reality. The little gap you do not even see, the |
| Tx:27.73 | You are the dreamer of the world of | dreams. No other cause it has, nor ever will. Nothing more fearful |
| Tx:27.74 | Rest in the Holy Spirit and allow His gentle | dreams to take the place of those you dreamed in terror and in fear |
| Tx:27.74 | you dreamed in terror and in fear of death. He brings forgiving | dreams in which the choice is not who is the murderer and who shall |
| Tx:27.74 | is not who is the murderer and who shall be the victim. In the | dreams He brings, there is no murder and there is no death. The dream |
| Tx:27.74 | your sleeping face. The sleep is peaceful now, for these are happy | dreams. |
| Tx:27.75 | Son. Dream of your brother's kindnesses instead of dwelling in your | dreams on his mistakes. Select his thoughtfulness to dream about |
| Tx:27.75 | do not brush aside his many gifts because he is not perfect in your | dreams. |
| Tx:27.78 | about for special bodies which can share its dream. Sometimes it | dreams it is a conqueror of bodies weaker than itself. But in some |
| Tx:27.81 | How willing are you to escape effects of all the | dreams the world has ever had? Is it your wish to let no dream appear |
| Tx:27.83 | thought is being placed outside yourself and on a guilty world which | dreams your dreams and thinks your thoughts instead of you. It brings |
| Tx:27.83 | placed outside yourself and on a guilty world which dreams your | dreams and thinks your thoughts instead of you. It brings its |
| Tx:28.19 | shows you who the dreamer is. It teaches you there is a choice of | dreams while you are still asleep, depending on the purpose of your |
| Tx:28.19 | asleep, depending on the purpose of your dreaming. Do you wish for | dreams of healing or for dreams of death? A dream is like a memory in |
| Tx:28.19 | purpose of your dreaming. Do you wish for dreams of healing or for | dreams of death? A dream is like a memory in that it pictures what |
| Tx:28.19 | storehouse with an open door holds all your shreds of memories and | dreams. Yet if you are the dreamer, you perceive this much at least— |
| Tx:28.20 | In | dreams of murder and attack are you the victim in a dying body slain. |
| Tx:28.20 | attack are you the victim in a dying body slain. But in forgiving | dreams is no one asked to be the victim and the sufferer. These are |
| Tx:28.20 | no one asked to be the victim and the sufferer. These are the happy | dreams the miracle exchanges for your own. It does not ask you make |
| Tx:28.22 | a figure in the dream. He gives himself the consequences which he | dreams he gave his brother. And it is but this the dream has put |
| Tx:28.25 | learn and shows you its effects are what you want. In His forgiving | dreams are the effects of yours undone and hated enemies perceived as |
| Tx:28.31 | of dreaming is the end of fear, and love was never in the world of | dreams. The gap is little. Yet it holds the seeds of pestilence and |
| Tx:28.34 | Count, then, the silver miracles and golden | dreams of happiness as all the treasures you would keep within the |
| Tx:28.37 | instead on you. Thus have they no effects. And you are free of | dreams of pain because you let him be. Unless you help him, you will |
| Tx:28.37 | can be sure of just one thing—that you are evil, for you share in | dreams of fear. |
| Tx:28.38 | finding certainty right here and now. Refuse to be a part of fearful | dreams whatever form they take, for you will lose identity in them. |
| Tx:28.38 | you effects. You stand apart from them but not apart from him who | dreams them. Thus you separate the dreamer from the dream and join |
| Tx:28.39 | as a mind which brother is to you. He is not brother made by what he | dreams, nor is his body, “hero” of the dream, your brother. It is his |
| Tx:28.39 | him. Your mind and his are joined in brotherhood. His body and his | dreams but seem to make a little gap, where yours have joined with |
| Tx:28.40 | And yet, between your minds there is no gap. To join his | dreams is thus to meet him not because his dreams would separate from |
| Tx:28.40 | is no gap. To join his dreams is thus to meet him not because his | dreams would separate from you. Therefore, release him, merely by |
| Tx:28.40 | release him, merely by your claim on brotherhood and not on | dreams of fear. Let him acknowledge who he is by not supporting his |
| Tx:28.40 | will not be released, and you are kept in bondage to his dream. And | dreams of fear will haunt the little gap, inhabited but by illusions |
| Tx:28.41 | figure in his dream instead of dreamer of your own. Identity in | dreams is meaningless because the dreamer and the dream are one. Who |
| Tx:28.42 | seems different because what is the same appears to be unlike. His | dreams are yours because you let them be. But if you took your own |
| Tx:28.42 | your own away would he be free of them and of his own as well. Your | dreams are witnesses to his, and his attest the truth of yours. Yet |
| Tx:28.42 | the truth of yours. Yet if you see there is no truth in yours, his | dreams will [disappear before his eyes], and he will understand what |
| Tx:28.46 | Join not your brother's | dreams but join with him, and where you join His Son, the Father is. |
| Tx:28.47 | off the self from good and keeping evil in. God is the alternate to | dreams of fear. Who shares in them can never share in Him. But who |
| Tx:28.48 | It is the sharing of the evil | dreams of hate and malice, bitterness and death, of sin and |
| Tx:28.48 | because it is the only one you [want] to have. You share no evil | dreams if you forgive the dreamer and perceive that he is not the |
| Tx:28.52 | not depend on this. There is no gap which separates the truth from | dreams and from illusions. Truth has left no room for them in any |
| Tx:29.20 | your savior not because he thinks he is a body. For beyond his | dreams is his reality. But he must learn he is a savior first, before |
| Tx:29.22 | Yet you can let yourself be wakened. You can overlook your brother's | dreams. So perfectly can you forgive him his illusions, he becomes |
| Tx:29.22 | can you forgive him his illusions, he becomes your savior from your | dreams. And as you see him shining in the space of light where God |
| Tx:29.24 | holy are you, that the Son of God can be your savior in the midst of | dreams of desolation and disaster. See how eagerly he comes and steps |
| Tx:29.25 | Do you believe that truth can be but some illusions? They are | dreams because they are not true. Their equal lack of truth becomes |
| Tx:29.25 | the basis for the miracle, which means that you have understood that | dreams are dreams and that escape depends not on the dream, but only |
| Tx:29.25 | the miracle, which means that you have understood that dreams are | dreams and that escape depends not on the dream, but only on awaking. |
| Tx:29.25 | depends not on the dream, but only on awaking. Could it be some | dreams are kept and others wakened from? The choice is not between |
| Tx:29.25 | are kept and others wakened from? The choice is not between which | dreams to keep, but only if you want to live in dreams or to awaken |
| Tx:29.25 | is not between which dreams to keep, but only if you want to live in | dreams or to awaken from them. Thus it is the miracle does not select |
| Tx:29.25 | or to awaken from them. Thus it is the miracle does not select some | dreams to leave untouched by its beneficence. You cannot dream some |
| Tx:29.25 | dreams to leave untouched by its beneficence. You cannot dream some | dreams and wake from some, for you are either sleeping or awake. And |
| Tx:29.26 | The | dreams you think you like would hold you back as much as those in |
| Tx:29.26 | But never is it absent from the dream, for fear is the material of | dreams from which they all are made. Their form can change, but they |
| Tx:29.28 | And does not this become the “reason” your attack is justified? The | dreams you think you like are those in which the functions you have |
| Tx:29.28 | wanted. It is the idea that they exist from which the fears arise. | Dreams are not wanted more or less. They are desired or not. And each |
| Tx:29.29 | How happy would your | dreams become if you were not the one who gave the “proper” role to |
| Tx:29.29 | your idea of him, and there is no betrayal but of this. The core of | dreams the Holy Spirit gives is never one of fear. The coverings may |
| Tx:29.29 | you a chance to help if this becomes the function of the dream. And | dreams of sadness thus are turned to joy. |
| Tx:29.30 | of the dream as He perceives its function, Who can utilize all | dreams as means to serve the function given Him. Because He loves the |
| Tx:29.34 | that surrounds you dwells in him, and from this quiet come the happy | dreams in which your hands are joined in innocence. These are not |
| Tx:29.34 | hands are joined in innocence. These are not hands that grasp in | dreams of pain. They hold no sword, for they have left their hold on |
| Tx:29.36 | A dream is given you in which you have forgiven him for all his | dreams of death—a dream of hope you share with him instead of |
| Tx:29.36 | a dream of hope you share with him instead of dreaming evil separate | dreams of hate. Why does it seem so hard to share this dream? Because |
| Tx:29.37 | from use by Him Who sees a different function for a dream. When | dreams are shared, they lose the function of attack and separation, |
| Tx:29.37 | was for this that every dream was made. Yet nothing in the world of | dreams remains without the hope of change and betterment, for here is |
| Tx:29.37 | that this is so and seek not the eternal in this world. Forgiving | dreams are means to step aside from dreaming of a world outside |
| Tx:29.37 | dreaming of a world outside yourself. And leading finally beyond all | dreams unto the peace of everlasting life. |
| Tx:29.48 | the future will be like the past and but a series of depressing | dreams in which all idols fail you one by one, and you see death and |
| Tx:29.49 | is within by splitting what you are between the two. You choose your | dreams, for they are what you wish, perceived as if it had been given |
| Tx:29.50 | Yet where are | dreams but in a mind asleep? And can a dream succeed in making real |
| Tx:29.62 | has condemned. Judge not, because you make yourself a part of evil | dreams where idols are your “true” identity and your salvation from |
| Tx:29.65 | Nightmares are childish | dreams. The toys have turned against the child who thought he made |
| Tx:29.67 | all is joy because that is the purpose which it has. Only forgiving | dreams can enter here, for time is almost over. And the forms which |
| Tx:29.68 | Forgiving | dreams have little need to last. They are not made to separate the |
| Tx:29.68 | to prove the dream is being dreamed by someone else. And in these | dreams a melody is heard which everyone remembers, though he has not |
| Tx:29.68 | song again, he knows he never heard it not. And where is time, when | dreams of judgment have been put away? |
| Tx:29.70 | Forgiving | dreams remind you that you live in safety and have not attacked |
| Tx:29.70 | not attacked yourself. So do your childish terrors melt away and | dreams become a sign that you have made a new beginning, not another |
| Tx:29.70 | not another try to worship idols and to keep attack. Forgiving | dreams are kind to everyone who figures in the dream. And so they |
| Tx:29.70 | in the dream. And so they bring the dreamer full release from | dreams of fear. He does not fear his judgment, for he has judged no |
| Tx:30.1 | time it is attempted. And together will these steps lead you from | dreams of judgment to forgiving dreams and out of pain and fear. They |
| Tx:30.1 | will these steps lead you from dreams of judgment to forgiving | dreams and out of pain and fear. They are not new to you, but they |
| Tx:30.47 | unaffected by the turmoil and the terror of the world, the | dreams of birth and death that here are dreamed, the myriad of forms |
| Tx:30.53 | equally forgotten in attack. God's Son needs no defense against his | dreams. His idols do not threaten him at all. His one mistake is that |
| Tx:30.55 | do not want. And you are asked to let yourself be free of all the | dreams of what you never were and seek no more to substitute the |
| Tx:30.56 | be the substitute for fear. Such is the only rule for happy | dreams. The gap is emptied of the toys of fear, and then its |
| Tx:30.56 | gap is emptied of the toys of fear, and then its unreality is plain. | Dreams are for nothing. And the Son of God can have no need of them. |
| Tx:30.70 | will be made complete. Here is the real world given in exchange for | dreams of terror. For it is on this forgiveness rests and is but |
| Tx:30.72 | the only change that lets the real world rise to take the place of | dreams of terror. Fear cannot arise unless attack is justified, and |
| Tx:30.87 | must be forever unintelligible. This is not communication. Your dark | dreams are but the senseless, isolated scripts you write in sleep. |
| Tx:30.87 | senseless, isolated scripts you write in sleep. Look not to separate | dreams for meaning. Only dreams of pardon can be shared. They mean |
| Tx:30.87 | you write in sleep. Look not to separate dreams for meaning. Only | dreams of pardon can be shared. They mean the same to both of you. |

| W1:104.6 | illusions, witnessed to by them, and sought for only in a world of | dreams. All this we lay aside and seek instead that which is truly |

| W1:125.5 | His Son and wills that he remain as part of Him regardless of his | dreams, regardless of his madness that his will is not his own. |
| W1:128.5 | leave it free of purposes we gave its aspects and its phases and its | dreams. We hold it purposeless within our minds and loosen it from |
| W1:131.16 | the truth you knew and did not quite forget in wandering away in | dreams. |
| W1:134.8 | not there, it opens up the way to truth, which had been blocked by | dreams of guilt. |
| W1:134.11 | bridge, as powerful as Love Which laid Its blessing on it, are all | dreams of evil and of hatred and attack brought silently to truth. |

| W1:137.8 | Healing is freedom. For it demonstrates that | dreams will not prevail against the truth. Healing is shared. And by |
| W1:140.3 | The happy | dreams the Holy Spirit brings are different from the dreaming of the |
| W1:140.3 | dreaming of the world, where one can merely dream he is awake. The | dreams forgiveness lets the mind perceive do not induce another form |
| W1:140.3 | perceive do not induce another form of sleep, so that the dreamer | dreams another dream. His happy dreams are heralds of the dawn of |
| W1:140.3 | form of sleep, so that the dreamer dreams another dream. His happy | dreams are heralds of the dawn of truth upon the mind. They lead from |
| W1:140.3 | truth upon the mind. They lead from sleep to gentle waking, so that | dreams are gone. And thus they cure for all eternity. |
| W1:140.5 | Peace be to you who have been cured in God and not in idle | dreams. For cure must come from holiness, and holiness cannot be |
| W1:151.7 | God loves, and in the holy light of what He sees do all the ego's | dreams of what you are vanish before the splendor He beholds. |
| W1:151.11 | the truth and disregard those aspects which reflect but idle | dreams. And He will reinterpret all you see and all occurrences, each |
| W1:151.13 | Him evaluate each thought that comes to mind, remove the elements of | dreams, and give them back to you as clean ideas that do not |
| W1:153.5 | you behold the Son of God as but a victim to attack by fantasies, by | dreams, and by illusions he has made; yet helpless he is in their |
| W1:153.5 | their presence, needful only of defense by still more fantasies and | dreams by which illusions of his safety comfort him. |
| W1:153.9 | We look past | dreams today and recognize that we need no defense because we are |
| W1:153.14 | fantasy. God's ministers have come to waken him from the dark | dreams this story has evoked in his confused, bewildered memory of |
| W1:155.11 | When | dreams are over, time has closed the door on all the things that |
| W1:155.13 | the world to God. Look not to ways which seem to lead you elsewhere. | Dreams are not a worthy guide for you who are God's Son. Forget not |
| W1:157.8 | you have not dreamed of. But the Holy One, the Giver of the happy | dreams of life, Translator of perception into truth, the holy Guide |
| W1:158.7 | by errors, pitiful mistakes, and fearful thoughts of guilt from | dreams of sin. It sees no separation. And it looks on everyone, on |
| W1:162.3 | the day, at night bringing them with him as he goes to sleep. His | dreams are happy and his rest secure, his safety certain and his body |
| W1:163.3 | taste of dust and ashes in their wake in place of aspirations and of | dreams. But death is counted on. For it will come with certain |
| W1:165.7 | beyond our every fear. The thought of Him is still beyond all | dreams and in our minds according to His Will. |
| W1:167.9 | not within its Source, it merely seems to go to sleep a while. It | dreams of time—an interval in which what seems to happen never has |
| W1:167.10 | eyes or makes himself what he is not because he sleeps and sees in | dreams an opposite to what he is? We will not ask for death in any |
| W1:185.2 | No one can mean these words and not be healed. He cannot play with | dreams nor think he is himself a dream. He cannot make a hell and |
| W1:185.3 | will becomes the Will of God. For minds can only join in truth. In | dreams no two can share the same intent. To each the hero of the |
| W1:185.4 | for compromising is the goal of dreaming. Minds cannot unite in | dreams. They merely bargain. And what bargain can give them the peace |
| W1:185.5 | To mean you want the peace of God is to renounce all | dreams. For no one means these words who wants illusions and who |
| W1:185.5 | that another dream would offer nothing more than all the others. | Dreams are one to him. And he has learned their only difference is |
| W1:185.7 | are in vain, requesting the eternal in the place of shifting | dreams which seem to change in what they offer, but are one in |
| W1:185.8 | your practice periods to careful searching of your mind to find the | dreams you cherish still. What do you ask for in your heart? Forget |
| W1:185.8 | illusions, for their form is not what matters now. Let not some | dreams be more acceptable, reserving shame and secrecy for others. |
| W1:185.9 | is possible in this. You choose God's peace, or you have asked for | dreams. And dreams will come as you requested them. Yet will God's |
| W1:185.9 | in this. You choose God's peace, or you have asked for dreams. And | dreams will come as you requested them. Yet will God's peace come |
| W1:185.10 | You want the peace of God. And so do all who seem to seek for | dreams. For them as well as for yourself you ask but this when you |
| W1:188.2 | within, for there all vision starts. There is no sight, be it of | dreams or from a truer source, that is not but the shadow of the seen |
| W1:190.7 | idle wishes represent its pains. Your strange desires bring it evil | dreams. Your thoughts of death envelop it in fear, while in your kind |
| W1:191.11 | yourself as weak and frail, with futile hopes and devastated | dreams, born but to die, to weep, and suffer pain, hear this: all |
| W1:192.3 | power to translate into form the wholly formless. What He makes are | dreams, but of a kind so close to waking that the light of day |
| W1:192.7 | is but confusion born of error. We are lost in mists of shifting | dreams and fearful thoughts, our eyes shut tight against the light, |
| W1:198.3 | Forgiveness sweeps all other | dreams away, and though it is itself a dream, it breeds no others. |
| W1:198.3 | fold. But this is where illusions end. Forgiveness is the end of | dreams because it is a dream of waking. It is not itself the truth. |
| W1:198.8 | these, and unaware of any condemnation which could need forgiveness. | Dreams of any kind are strange and alien to the truth. Yet what but |
| W1:200.6 | a mighty function. Is not the escape of God's beloved Son from evil | dreams that he imagines, yet believes are true, a worthy purpose? Who |

| W2:226.2 | What need have I to linger in a place of vain desires and of broken | dreams when Heaven can so easily be mine? |
| W2:227.2 | which we never really left. The Son of God this day lays down his | dreams. The Son of God this day comes home again, released from sin |
| W2:228.2 | a part of me, as I am part of You. And my mistakes about myself are | dreams. I let them go today. And I stand ready to receive Your Word |
| W2:WS.3 | in the sense that it does nothing, failing to support the world of | dreams and malice. Thus it lets illusions go. By not supporting them, |
| W2:WS.5 | Son has but an instant more to wait until his Father is remembered, | dreams are done, eternity has shined away the world, and only Heaven |
| W2:234.1 | Today we will anticipate the time when | dreams of sin and guilt are gone and we have reached again the holy |
| W2:WIS.4 | A madman's | dreams are frightening, and sin appears indeed to terrify. And yet |

| W2:WIC.2 | in which God's Answer lies, where all decisions are already made and | dreams are over. He remains untouched by anything the body's eyes |
| W2:WIC.3 | This is the only part of you that has reality in truth. The rest is | dreams. Yet will these dreams be given unto Christ to fade before His |
| W2:WIC.3 | of you that has reality in truth. The rest is dreams. Yet will these | dreams be given unto Christ to fade before His glory and reveal your |
| W2:WIC.4 | The Holy Spirit reaches from the Christ in you to all your | dreams and bids them come to Him to be translated into truth. He will |
| W2:WIC.4 | exchange them for the final dream which God appointed as the end of | dreams. For when forgiveness rests upon the world and peace has come |
| W2:272.1 | belongs to me. My home is set in Heaven by Your will and mine. Can | dreams content me? Can illusions bring me happiness? What but Your |
| W2:272.2 | and ask ourselves if we, the Sons of God, could be content with | dreams when Heaven can be chosen just as easily as hell and love will |
| W2:279.1 | The end of | dreams is promised me because God's Son is not abandoned by His Love. |
| W2:279.1 | promised me because God's Son is not abandoned by His Love. Only in | dreams is there a time when he appears to be in prison and awaits a |
| W2:279.1 | and awaits a future freedom if it be at all. Yet in reality his | dreams are gone, with truth established in their place. And now is |
| W2:WIHS.1 | and the truth. As He must bridge the gap between reality and | dreams, perception leads to knowledge through the grace that God has |
| W2:WIHS.1 | who turns to Him for truth. Across the bridge that He provides are | dreams all carried to the truth, to be dispelled before the light of |
| W2:WIHS.2 | The goal the Holy Spirit's teaching sets is just this end of | dreams. For sights and sounds must be translated from the witnesses |

| W2:WIHS.4 | God, the Holy Spirit calls to you to let forgiveness rest upon your | dreams and be restored to sanity and peace of mind. Without |
| W2:WIHS.4 | restored to sanity and peace of mind. Without forgiveness will your | dreams remain to terrify you. And the memory of all your Father's |
| W2:WIHS.4 | of all your Father's Love will not return to signify the end of | dreams has come. |

| M:4.17 | God's teachers have learned how to be simple. They have no | dreams that need defense against the truth. They do not try to make |

| M:8.2 | health a burden, it retreats into feverish dreams. And in these | dreams, the mind is separate, different from other minds, with |
| M:12.6 | and sickness cannot co-exist. God's teachers choose to look on | dreams a while. It is a conscious choice. For they have learned that |
| M:12.6 | The dream says otherwise, but who would put his faith in | dreams, once they are recognized for what they are? Awareness of |
| M:12.6 | to regard it as healthy and beautiful. Unity alone is not a thing of | dreams. And it is this God's teachers acknowledge as behind the |
| M:16.6 | a power that can save you from all the fearful things you see in | dreams. It is not so. Your safety lies not there. What you give up is |
| M:27.6 | death.” Of course! Without the idea of death, there is no world. All | dreams will end with this one. This is salvation's final goal, the |

| Tx:16.58 | and they are totally unreal. This year is thus the time to make the | easiest decision that ever confronted you and also the only one. You |

| Tx:6.35 | ego can accept the idea that return is necessary because it can so | easily make the idea seem so difficult. Yet the Holy Spirit tells you |

| Tx:11.84 | for you will at last have seen truly. Redeemed perception is | easily translated into knowledge, for only perception is capable of |

| Tx:13.64 | that it should never be forgotten. The guiltless learner learns so | easily because his thoughts are free. Yet this entails the |
| Tx:14.29 | of believing that if He asks it, you can do it. You will see how | easily all that He asks can be accomplished. |
| Tx:17.12 | God's perfection. From the forgiven world, the Son of God is lifted | easily into his home. And there he knows that he has always rested |
| Tx:17.54 | The experience of an instant, however compelling it may be, is | easily forgotten if you allow time to close over it. It must be kept |

| Tx:18.42 | build your part in the Atonement and make sure that you fulfill it | easily. And with Him you will build a ladder planted in the solid |

| Tx:22.31 | would be madness to attempt to pass it. Yet reason sees through it | easily because it is an error. The form it takes cannot conceal its |
| Tx:22.44 | hands and touch this heavy-seeming block, and you will learn how | easily your fingers slip through its nothingness. It is no solid |
| Tx:22.50 | your brother. And not one that truth cannot pass over lightly and so | easily that you must be convinced, in spite of what you thought it |
| Tx:22.53 | at all to think how He can change the role of means and end so | easily in what God loves and would have free forever. But be you |

| Tx:24.69 | This course makes no attempt to teach what cannot | easily be learned. Its scope does not exceed your own, except to say |
| Tx:25.49 | it, and it is given you. All that you made can serve salvation | easily and well. The Son of God can make no choice the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:27.7 | the body demonstrate how frail and vulnerable is your life, how | easily destroyed is what you love. Depression speaks of death and |
| Tx:27.37 | answer is. [And where its answer is, a problem must be simple and be | easily resolved.] It must be pointless to attempt to solve a problem |

| Tx:27.89 | None has a different cause from all the rest, and all of them are | easily undone by but a single lesson truly learned. Salvation is a |
| Tx:28.55 | on which it has been set. And if that path is changed, it walks as | easily another way. It takes no sides and judges not the road it |
| Tx:30.61 | The real world is a state in which the mind has learned how | easily do idols go when they are still perceived, but wanted not. How |
| Tx:30.90 | he is not bound by loss or suffering in any form because it can so | easily be changed. This demonstrates that it was never real and could |
| Tx:31.17 | you? What could he want, but what you want of him? Herein is life as | easily as death, for what you choose, you choose as well for him. Two |
| Tx:31.86 | How do you make the choice? How | easily is this explained! You always choose between your weakness and |
| W1:2.1 | everything in an area or you will introduce strain. Merely glance | easily and fairly quickly around you, trying to avoid selection by |
| W1:32.1 | of the world you see because you invented it. You can give it up as | easily as you made it up. You will see it or not see it, as you wish. |
| W1:70.13 | in the clouds looking vainly for idols there when you could so | easily walk on into the light of real salvation. Try to pass the |
| W1:73.6 | We have repeatedly emphasized that the barrier of grievances is | easily passed and cannot stand between you and your salvation. The |
| W1:74.11 | to mistake these attempts for withdrawal, but the difference is | easily detected. If you are succeeding, you will feel a deep sense of |
| W1:108.6 | are the same has special usefulness because it can be tried so | easily and seen as true. And when this special case has proved it |
| W1:124.2 | the holiness within the mind at one with God and with itself. How | easily do errors disappear and death give place to everlasting life. |
| W1:124.6 | of suffering in anyone in times gone by and times as yet to come, as | easily as in the ones who walk beside them now. Their thoughts are |
| W1:130.11 | Dismiss temptation | easily today whenever it arises merely by remembering the limits on |
| W1:131.16 | Put out your hand and see how | easily the door swings open with your one intent to go beyond it. |
| W1:132.2 | Yet is salvation | easily achieved, for anyone is free to change his mind, and all his |
| W1:133.14 | learning this? It is far more than merely letting you make choices | easily and without pain. Heaven Itself is reached by empty hands and |
| W1:134.2 | This twisted view of what forgiveness means is | easily corrected when you can accept the fact that pardon is not |
| W1:135.5 | first what you defend. It must be something that is very weak and | easily assaulted. It must be something made easy prey, unable to |
| W1:137.9 | Holy Spirit urges you to follow Him. His gentle lessons teach how | easily salvation can be yours, how little practice you need undertake |
| W1:161.6 | of our text, where it is often emphasized. This is the reason bodies | easily become fear's symbols. You have many times been urged to look |
| W1:164.2 | The world fades | easily away before His sight. Its sounds grow dim. A melody from far |
| W1:164.3 | quiet is the time you give to spend with Him beyond the world. How | easily are all your seeming sins forgot and all your sorrows |
| W1:182.6 | protection. He is far from home. He is so little that He seems so | easily shut out, His tiny Voice so readily obscured, His calls for |
| W1:183.4 | and unwanted thing before God's Name. Repeat His Name and see how | easily you will forget the names of all the gods you value. They have |
| W1:188.2 | or believe it has been lost already or was never there? It can so | easily be looked upon that arguments which prove it is not there |
| W1:191.7 | Be glad today how very | easily is hell undone. You need but tell yourself: |
| W1:193.7 | obvious that it appears in countless forms and yet is recognized as | easily in all of them if one but wants to see the simple lesson there. |
| W1:193.16 | that the next one is free of the one before. The chains of time are | easily unloosened in this way. |
| W1:196.4 | is but willingness. And what would seem to need a thousand years can | easily be done in just one instant by the grace of God. |
| W1:197.2 | How | easily are God and guilt confused by those who know not what their |
| W1:200.3 | Yet you can ask as | easily for love, for happiness, and for eternal life in peace that |
| W1:200.3 | eyes to find that Heaven lies before you, through a door that opens | easily to welcome you? |
| W2:WF.2 | chains so that distortions are more veiled and more obscure, less | easily accessible to doubt, and further kept from reason. What can |
| W2:226.2 | in a place of vain desires and of broken dreams when Heaven can so | easily be mine? |
| W2:272.2 | God, could be content with dreams when Heaven can be chosen just as | easily as hell and love will happily replace all fear. |
| M:4.23 | perhaps the last of the attributes the teacher of God acquires, is | easily understood when its relation to forgiveness is recognized. |
| M:8.5 | voice he hears than to that of a softer one? Will he dismiss more | easily a whispered demand to kill than a shout? And do the number of |
| M:11.4 | who look on war. Peace is inevitable to those who offer peace. How | easily, then, is your judgment of the world escaped! It is not the |
| M:16.2 | he can in his own way. Routines as such are dangerous because they | easily become gods in their own right, threatening the very goals for |
| M:16.4 | and let him do so. Duration is not the major concern. One can | easily sit still an hour with closed eyes and accomplish nothing. One |
| M:16.4 | still an hour with closed eyes and accomplish nothing. One can as | easily give God only an instant, and in that instant join with Him |
| M:16.7 | How simply and how | easily does the day slip by for the teacher of God who has accepted |
| M:16.9 | simply does nothing. Its powerlessness is the reason it can be so | easily escaped. What has no effects can hardly terrify. |
| M:17.2 | that reinforces it. Nor is this always obvious. It can, in fact, be | easily concealed beneath a wish to help. It is this double wish that |
| M:17.3 | with the call for help becoming his one appeal. This then is | easily responded to with just one answer, and this answer will enter |

| Tx:17.8 | truth. The bridge between that world and this is so little and so | easy to cross that you could not believe it is the meeting place of |
| Tx:18.23 | the real world—the world of happy dreams from which awaking is so | easy and so natural. For as your sleeping and your waking dreams |
| Tx:18.39 | It is this that makes the holy instant so | easy and so natural. You make it difficult because you insist there |
| Tx:18.39 | we have emphasized that you need understand nothing. Salvation is | easy just because it asks nothing that you cannot give right now. |

| Tx:22.44 | How | easy is it to offer this miracle to everyone! No one who has received |

| Tx:30.17 | This much is obvious and paves the way for the next | easy step. |
| Tx:30.64 | How light and | easy is the step across the narrow boundaries of the world of fear |
| Tx:31.1 | it to be true? Only unwillingness to learn it could make such an | easy lesson difficult. How hard is it to see that what is false |
| Tx:31.2 | very obvious. It merely goes from one apparent lesson to the next in | easy steps which lead you gently from one to another with no strain |
| Tx:31.4 | Who could maintain that lessons such as these are | easy? Yet you have learned more than this. You have continued, taking |
| Tx:31.51 | Thus are the Holy Spirit's lesson plans arranged in | easy steps that though there be some lack of ease at times and some |

| W1:133.13 | desirable or not worth the slightest effort to obtain. Choosing is | easy just because of this. Complexity is nothing but a screen of |
| W1:135.5 | that is very weak and easily assaulted. It must be something made | easy prey, unable to protect itself, and needing your defense. What |

| W2:296.2 | And so our learning goal becomes an unconflicted one and possible of | easy reach and quick accomplishment. How gladly does the Holy Spirit |
| W2:296.2 | His teaching to persuade the world through us to seek and find the | easy path to God! |
| M:4.8 | not want and keep what you do.” How simple is the obvious! And how | easy to do! The teacher of God needs this period of respite. He has |
| M:4.10 | state fully reflected. From here the way to Heaven is open and | easy. In fact, it is here. Who would “go” anywhere if peace of mind |
| M:4.15 | gentleness, for it is in this that the function of salvation becomes | easy. To those who would do harm, it is impossible. To those to whom |
| M:14.4 | can learn, he can learn it. He does not judge it either as hard or | easy. His Teacher points to it, and he trusts that He will show him |
| M:25.5 | Yet, given a remaining wish to be deceived, deception is made | easy. Now the “power” is no longer a genuine ability and cannot be |
eaten (1) | ||
| Tx:3.75 | But God could not have forbidden it or it could not have been | eaten. If God knows His Children, and I assure you that He does, |
eating (1) | ||
| Tx:3.76 | Eating of the fruit of the tree of knowledge is a symbolic expression | |
eccentric (1) | ||
| W1:134.1 | of the truth. In such a view, forgiveness must be seen as mere | eccentric folly, and this course appear to rest salvation on a whim. |
eccentricity (1) | ||
| W1:126.5 | has no grounds on which to rest dependably and sure. It is an | eccentricity in which you sometimes choose to give indulgently an |
echo (10) | ||
| Tx:17.52 | Throughout the Sonship is the song of freedom heard in joyous | echo of your choice. You have joined with many in the holy instant, |
| Tx:18.12 | Whom God has called should hear no substitutes. Their call is but an | echo of the original error which shattered Heaven. And what became of |
| Tx:26.37 | Is this a hindrance to the place whereon he stands? Is any | echo from the past that he may hear a fact in what is there to hear |
| Tx:31.95 | will they choose. And I give thanks for them. Salvation's song will | echo through the world with every choice they make. For we are one in |
| W1:97.8 | exercises with the words the Holy Spirit speaks to you, and let them | echo round the world through Him: |
| W1:100.3 | dim and lusterless. And no one laughs, because all laughter can but | echo yours. |
| W1:123.5 | you become the messenger who brings His Voice with you and let it | echo round and round the world. |

| W1:157.1 | set apart to shine upon and cast a timeless light upon this day when | echoes of eternity are heard. This day is holy, for it ushers in a |

| Tx:2.89 | you say, “Just an idle thought,” and mean that the thought has no | effect. You also speak of some actions as “thoughtless,” implying |
| Tx:2.90 | persuading him that he can think whatever he wants without any real | effect at all. |
| Tx:2.93 | their results, I would be tampering with a basic law of cause and | effect, the most fundamental law there is in this world. I would |

| Tx:2.97 | When man miscreates he is in pain. The cause and | effect principle here is temporarily a real expediter. Actually, |

| Tx:3.62 | which man suffers is the belief that what he judged against has no | effect. This cannot be true unless he also believes that what he |
| Tx:4.13 | of the ego-oriented teacher's goal. He is concerned with the | effect of his ego on other egos and therefore interprets their |
| Tx:4.78 | a decision about your future effort, a decision which will remain in | effect unless you change the decision. |
| Tx:4.87 | pain is an ego-illusion and can never induce more than a temporary | effect. The rewards of God, however, are immediately recognized as |
| Tx:5.5 | them. Only the healed mind can experience revelation with lasting | effect, because revelation is an experience of pure joy. If you do |
| Tx:7.15 | Laws must be communicated if they are to be helpful. In | effect, they must be translated for those who speak a different |

| Tx:10.59 | It is not until beliefs are fixed that perceptions stabilize. In | effect, then, what you believe, you do see. That is what I meant when |

| Tx:13.3 | The separation is merely a faulty formulation of reality with no | effect at all. The miracle, without a function in Heaven, is needful |
| Tx:13.45 | kind of reconciliation in His Mind for you, and one which He will | effect as surely as the ego will not effect what it attempts. |

| Tx:21.25 | When vision is denied, confusion of cause and | effect becomes inevitable. The purpose now becomes to keep obscure |
| Tx:21.25 | inevitable. The purpose now becomes to keep obscure the cause of the | effect and make effect appear to be a cause. This seeming |
| Tx:21.25 | purpose now becomes to keep obscure the cause of the effect and make | effect appear to be a cause. This seeming independence of effect |
| Tx:21.25 | and make effect appear to be a cause. This seeming independence of | effect enables it to be regarded as standing by itself and capable of |
| Tx:21.25 | father and not son to Him. This is the same desire. The Son is the | effect, whose Cause he would deny. And so he seems to be the cause, |
| Tx:21.26 | power to make you what it wills, you are confusing Son and Father, | effect and Source. |
| Tx:21.54 | but there, where this same answer is? Your Identity, as much a true | effect of this same Source as is the answer, must therefore be |
| Tx:21.60 | thoughts that enter into what but seems like yours alone have no | effect at all on what is yours? If minds are joined, this is |
| Tx:21.77 | want to see must be your choice. This is a course in cause and not | effect. |
| Tx:24.41 | from pain—in which you suffer not your condemnation. In dreams, | effect and cause are interchanged, for here the maker of the dream |
| Tx:24.66 | What is immortal cannot be attacked; what is but temporal has no | effect. Only the purpose that you see in it has meaning, and if that |
| Tx:26.32 | has been replaced. Time lasted but an instant in your mind, with no | effect upon eternity. And so is all time passed and everything |
| Tx:26.49 | and seems to be external to the mind is not outside at all but an | effect of what is in and has not left its source. |
| Tx:26.60 | Cause and | effect are one, not separate. God wills you learn what always has |
| Tx:26.61 | consequence are brought together, not kept separate. The healing of | effect without the cause can merely shift effects to other forms. And |
| Tx:26.75 | untrue, must be already in your mind. And this illusion is but one | effect which it engenders and one form in which its outcome is |
| Tx:27.16 | to your brother and yourself. You must attest his sins had no | effect on you to demonstrate they were not real. How else could he be |
| Tx:27.16 | And how could his innocence be justified unless his sins have no | effect to warrant guilt? Sins are beyond forgiveness just because |
| Tx:27.16 | been healed. A miracle of healing proves that separation is without | effect. What you would prove to him, you will believe. The power of |
| Tx:27.31 | And thus the picture has no cause at all. Who can perceive | effect without a cause? What can the causeless be but nothingness? |
| Tx:27.79 | again, and still again, and yet once more that it is cause and not | effect. And you are its effect and cannot be its cause. |
| Tx:27.79 | and yet once more that it is cause and not effect. And you are its | effect and cannot be its cause. |
| Tx:27.85 | have overlooked the cause entirely? He bids you bring each terrible | effect to Him that you may look together on its foolish cause and |
| Tx:27.86 | them be as hateful and as vicious as they may, they could have no | effect on you unless you failed to recognize it is your dream. This |
| Tx:28.18 | For this impossible desire, he does not believe that he is Love's | effect and must be cause because of what he is. The cause of healing |
| Tx:28.18 | The cause of healing is the only Cause of everything. It has but one | effect. And in that recognition, causelessness is given no effects |
| Tx:28.19 | is you who dreamed the dreaming that you do not like. It is but an | effect which you have caused, and you would not be cause of this |
| Tx:28.19 | an effect which you have caused, and you would not be cause of this | effect. |
| Tx:28.23 | appears to prove the dreamer could not be the maker of the dream. | Effect and cause are first split off and then reversed, so that |
| Tx:28.23 | Effect and cause are first split off and then reversed, so that | effect becomes a cause; the cause, effect. |
| Tx:28.23 | off and then reversed, so that effect becomes a cause; the cause, | effect. |
| Tx:28.24 | which proceeds to go the other way, begins. This final step is an | effect of what has gone before, appearing as a cause. The miracle is |
| Tx:28.24 | first step in giving back to cause the function of causation, not | effect. For this confusion has produced the dream, and while it |
| Tx:28.26 | show the mind made sickness and employed the body to be victim or | effect of what it made. Yet half the lesson will not teach the whole. |
| Tx:28.29 | prevents the cause of sickness and perceived effects. Healing is the | effect of minds which join, as sickness comes from minds which |
| Tx:28.32 | The cause of pain is separation, not the body, which is only its | effect. Yet separation is but empty space, enclosing nothing, doing |
| Tx:28.58 | out upon the body, so that it will suffer pain. It is the obvious | effect of what was made in secret, in agreement with another's secret |
| Tx:28.66 | will blow upon it, and the rain will beat against it but with no | effect. The world will wash away, and yet this house will stand |
| Tx:29.11 | The miracle is not a separate thing which happens suddenly, as an | effect without a cause. Nor is it in itself a cause. But where its |
| W1:13.8 | arouse. This is our first attempt at stating an explicit cause and | effect relationship of a kind which you are very inexperienced in |
| W1:16.1 | a beginning step in dispelling the belief that your thoughts have no | effect. Everything you see is the result of your thoughts. There is |
| W1:17.1 | This idea is another step in the direction of identifying cause and | effect as it really operates. You see no neutral things because you |
| W1:19.1 | Thinking and its results are really simultaneous, for cause and | effect are never separate. |
| W1:20.5 | What you desire, you will see. Such is the real law of cause and | effect as it operates in the world. |
| W1:23.2 | change the world. It is incapable of change because it is merely an | effect. But there is indeed a point in changing your thoughts about |
| W1:26.3 | thoughts must entail the belief that you are vulnerable, their | effect is to weaken you in your own eyes. Thus they have attacked |
| W1:32.1 | Today we are continuing to develop the theme of cause and | effect. You are not the victim of the world you see because you |
| W1:42.1 | thoughts, both of major importance. It also sets forth a cause and | effect relationship which explains why you cannot fail in your |
| W1:88.5 | me. I suffer only because of my belief in them. They have no real | effect on me at all. I am perfectly free of the effects of all laws |
| W1:91.6 | the longer practice periods with this statement of true cause and | effect relationships: |
| W1:108.13 | Our very simple lesson for today will teach you much. | Effect and cause will be far better understood from this time on, and |
| W1:122.4 | gifts but these are worthy to be sought? What fancied value, trivial | effect, or transient promise never to be kept can hold more hope than |
| W1:126.2 | thoughts, nor theirs on [yourself]. Therefore your attitudes have no | effect on them, and their appeals for help are not in any way related |
| W1:131.8 | is not of Him. He did not make two minds, with Heaven as the glad | effect of one and earth the other's sorry outcome that is Heaven's |
| W1:131.11 | ideas arising in the place of thoughts which have no meaning, no | effect, and neither source nor substance in the truth. |
| W1:136.4 | —a happening beyond your state of mind, an outcome with a real | effect on you instead of one effected by your self. |
| W1:136.7 | become symbols standing for attack upon the whole, successful in | effect, and never to be seen as whole again. And yet you have |
| W1:140.7 | that it can be cured. There is no remedy the world provides that can | effect a change in anything. The mind that brings illusions to the |
| W1:186.9 | with His creation. All the images His Son appears to make have no | effect on what he is. They blow across his mind like windswept leaves |
| W1:190.7 | pain. And yet the world, as causeless, has no power to cause. As an | effect, it cannot make effects. As an illusion it is what you will. |
| W2:326.1 | Mind, a holy thought that never left its home. I am forever Your | Effect, and You forever and forever are my Cause. As You created me, |
| W2:326.1 | it is Your will to have a Son so like his Cause that Cause and Its | Effect are indistinguishable. Let me know that I am an Effect of God, |
| W2:326.1 | Cause and Its Effect are indistinguishable. Let me know that I am an | Effect of God, and so I have the power to create like You. And as it |
| M:4.3 | of learning. In fact, perception is learning, because cause and | effect are never separated. The teachers of God have trust in the |
| M:5.7 | about creation. Does not this follow of necessity? Place cause and | effect in their true sequence in one respect, and the learning will |
| M:5.7 | with them also go all the effects they seemed to cause. Cause and | effect but replicate creation. Seen in their proper perspective, |
| M:5.10 | must remain as God created him. They recognize illusions can have no | effect. The truth in their minds reaches out to the truth in the |

| Tx:4.25 | when it involves physical presence. Thinking about another ego is as | effective in changing relative perception as is physical interaction. |
| Tx:4.87 | there is another way. Conditioning by rewards has always been more | effective than conditioning by pain because pain is an ego-illusion |
| Tx:11.43 | Because you had attacked yourself and believed that the attack was | effective, you behold yourself as weakened. No longer perceiving |

| Tx:5.81 | to learn now is that only infinite patience can produce immediate | effects. This is the way in which time is exchanged for eternity. |
| Tx:7.39 | apart from what the potential is used for. That is a decision. The | effects of the ego's decision in this matter are so apparent that |

| Tx:8.86 | and also its translators to be entirely literal about fear and its | effects but not about love and its results. Thus, “hellfire” means |
| Tx:9.14 | What has no effect does not exist, and to the Holy Spirit, the | effects of error are totally non-existent. By steadily and |
| Tx:9.14 | non-existent. By steadily and consistently canceling out all its | effects everywhere and in all respects, He teaches that the ego does |
| Tx:9.23 | is real. Having made it real, he then attempts to dispel its | effects by depreciating the importance of the dreamer. This would be |
| Tx:9.27 | by continually extending it and accepting its acknowledgment. Its | effects assure him it is there. |

| Tx:10.40 | that fear is not real. We have accepted the fact already that its | effects can be dispelled merely by denying their reality. The next |
| Tx:10.40 | reality. The next step is obviously to recognize that what has no | effects does not exist. Laws do not operate in a vacuum, and what |
| Tx:10.43 | regard a delusional system without fear, for it cannot have any | effects if its source is not true. Fear becomes more obviously |
| Tx:11.45 | of attack except by recognizing that your attack on yourself had no | effects. For others do react to attack if they perceive it, and if |
| Tx:11.62 | has been redeemed. You cannot see the invisible. Yet if you see its | effects, you know it must be there. By perceiving what it does, you |
| Tx:13.73 | alone. No thought of God's Son can be separate or isolated in its | effects. Every decision is made for the whole Sonship, directed in |
| Tx:13.79 | of God is not a source of guilt. What cannot happen can have no | effects to fear. Be quiet in your faith in Him Who loves you and |
| Tx:14.11 | power of God if you teach only this. You will not be exempt from the | effects of this most holy lesson, which seeks but to restore what is |
| Tx:14.60 | you only what you are now. Learning has been accomplished before its | effects are manifest. Learning is therefore in the past, but its |
| Tx:14.67 | always was and not as he would make himself. The miracle brings the | effects which only guiltlessness can bring and thus establishes the |
| Tx:14.73 | Only those who see they cannot know unless the | effects of understanding are with them can really learn at all. And |
| Tx:14.75 | you did them through Him. It is impossible to deny the Source of | effects so powerful they could not be of you. Leave room for Him, and |
| Tx:16.14 | position. You would have perfect faith in the Holy Spirit and in the | effects of His teaching if you were not afraid to acknowledge what He |
| Tx:16.22 | and in avoiding those which spoke for the cause of truth and its | effects. |
| Tx:16.32 | The special love relationship is an attempt to limit the destructive | effects of hate by finding a haven in the storm of guilt. It makes no |
| Tx:17.54 | other is not to lose the instant but to make it powerless in its | effects. You have received the holy instant, but you have established |
| Tx:17.56 | you have so freely given to each other, you will also accept the | effects of the holy instant and use them to correct all your mistakes |
| Tx:19.48 | flight or hinder the advance of summer? Can it interfere with the | effects of summer's sun upon a garden covered by the snow? See but |
| Tx:20.61 | goal of holiness? For holiness is merely the result of letting the | effects of sin be lifted so what was always true is recognized. To |
| Tx:20.68 | offers all this to you. As it was given you, so will be its | effects. And as its holy purpose was not made by you, the means by |
| Tx:21.16 | is done to you. Acknowledge but that you have been mistaken, and all | effects of your mistakes will disappear. |
| Tx:21.25 | Cause he would deny. And so he seems to be the cause, producing real | effects. Nothing can have effects without a cause and to confuse the |
| Tx:21.25 | he seems to be the cause, producing real effects. Nothing can have | effects without a cause and to confuse the two is merely to fail to |
| Tx:21.28 | made in secret, and the instant of release has come to you. All its | effects are gone because its source has been uncovered. It is its |
| Tx:21.30 | source of sin is gone. You may imagine that you still experience its | effects, but it is not your purpose, and you no longer want it. No |
| Tx:21.77 | be revealed to you through vision? How this decision leads to its | effects is not your problem. But what you want to see must be your |
| Tx:21.78 | three. And then it will be clear to you that, as you look on the | effects of sin in any form, all you need do is simply ask yourself, |
| Tx:22.2 | The holiness of your relationship forgives you both, undoing the | effects of what you both believed and saw. And with their going is |
| Tx:22.28 | beyond this willingness if you would be released entirely from all | effects of sin. Would you have partial forgiveness for yourself? Can |
| Tx:24.36 | it is quite obvious. The purpose of attack is in the mind, and its | effects are felt but where it is. Nor is mind limited; so must it be |
| Tx:25.33 | from what you wish. It is your wish that makes it what it is in its | effects on you. Because you chose it as a means to gain these same |
| Tx:25.33 | effects on you. Because you chose it as a means to gain these same | effects, believing them to be the bringers of rejoicing and of joy. |
| Tx:25.44 | day seems painful to the eyes grown long accustomed to the dim | effects perceived at twilight. And they turn away from sunlight and |
| Tx:25.77 | all the universe—to perfect peace, complete deliverance from all | effects of sin, and to the life eternal, joyous and complete in every |
| Tx:25.78 | vengeance not with justice? Are you willing to be released from all | effects of sin? You cannot answer this until you see all that the |
| Tx:26.49 | where all reality must be. Ideas leave not their source, and their | effects but seem to be apart from them. Ideas are of the mind. What |
| Tx:26.50 | answer lies where the belief in sin must be, for only there can its | effects be utterly undone and without cause. Perception's laws must |
| Tx:26.53 | needs no defense to make it true. Illusions have no witnesses and no | effects. Who looks on them is but deceived. Forgiveness is the only |
| Tx:26.59 | in that you still feel guilty, though without understanding why. | Effects are seen as separate from their source and seem to be beyond |
| Tx:26.61 | separate. The healing of effect without the cause can merely shift | effects to other forms. And this is not release. God's Son could |
| Tx:26.61 | by loss of any kind. A tiny sacrifice is just the same in its | effects as is the whole idea of sacrifice. If loss in any form is |
| Tx:26.64 | is the answer to attack of any kind. So is attack deprived of its | effects, and hate is answered in the name of love. To you to whom it |
| Tx:26.70 | of loss is great between the time its purpose is made yours and its | effects will come to you. In this form is the error still obscured |
| Tx:26.71 | Who can feel desolation except now? A future cause as yet has no | effects. And therefore must it be that if you fear, there is a |
| Tx:26.72 | it as yet, and what will happen has as yet no cause. Who can predict | effects without a cause? And who could fear effects unless he thought |
| Tx:26.72 | cause. Who can predict effects without a cause? And who could fear | effects unless he thought they had been caused and judged disastrous |
| Tx:26.72 | what is here and now. Yet only here and now its cause must be if its | effects already have been judged as fearful. And in overlooking this, |
| Tx:26.73 | purpose the Holy Spirit brought to your relationship has in it all | effects that you will see. They can be looked at now. Why wait till |
| Tx:26.74 | if it does? Its cause is here if it appears at all. Why are not its | effects apparent then? Why in the future? And you seek to be content |
| Tx:26.76 | death? Delay is senseless, and the “reasoning” which would maintain | effects of present cause must be delayed until a future time is |
| Tx:26.86 | senseless—equally without a cause or consequence and cannot have | effects of any kind. Their Presence is obscured by any veil which |
| Tx:27.6 | that nothing which his madness bid him do was ever done or ever had | effects of any kind; that no reproach he laid upon his heart was ever |
| Tx:27.16 | guilt? Sins are beyond forgiveness just because they would entail | effects which cannot be undone and overlooked entirely. In their |
| Tx:27.19 | prove all suffering is but a vain imagining, a foolish wish with no | effects. Your health is a result of your desire to see your brother |
| Tx:27.36 | clear you cannot answer anything at all, for conflict has no limited | effects. Yet if God gave an answer, there must be a way in which your |
| Tx:27.46 | of peace into the battleground and demonstrates that war has no | effects. For all the hurt that war has sought to bring, the broken |
| Tx:27.53 | attack will stay with you forever. Your healing will be one of its | effects, as will your brother's. Everywhere you go will you behold |
| Tx:27.53 | your brother's. Everywhere you go will you behold its multiplied | effects. Yet all the witnesses that you behold will be far less than |
| Tx:27.58 | are called. It merely proves that what they represent has no | effects. And this it proves because its own effects have come to take |
| Tx:27.58 | they represent has no effects. And this it proves because its own | effects have come to take their place. It matters not the name by |
| Tx:27.58 | witness unto life. It is a witness no one can deny, for it is the | effects of life it brings. The dying live, the dead arise, and pain |
| Tx:27.61 | world. The holy instant will replace all sin if you but carry its | effects with you. And no one will elect to suffer more. What better |
| Tx:27.66 | a cause. Nor will the cause be changed by seeing it apart from its | effects. The cause produces the effects which then bear witness to |
| Tx:27.66 | changed by seeing it apart from its effects. The cause produces the | effects which then bear witness to the cause and not themselves. |
| Tx:27.66 | bear witness to the cause and not themselves. Look, then, beyond | effects. It is not here the cause of suffering and sin must lie. And |
| Tx:27.70 | of which is clearly recognized? Who could be free to choose between | effects when only one is seen as up to him? |
| Tx:27.80 | real? The instant that he sees them as they are, they have no more | effects on him because he understands he gave them their effects by |
| Tx:27.80 | no more effects on him because he understands he gave them their | effects by causing them and making them seem real. |
| Tx:27.81 | How willing are you to escape | effects of all the dreams the world has ever had? Is it your wish to |
| Tx:27.82 | become a serious idea and possible of both accomplishment and real | effects. Together, we can laugh them both away and understand that |
| Tx:27.84 | but without their trifling cause. Without the cause do its | effects seem serious and sad indeed. Yet they but follow. And it is |
| Tx:27.85 | laughter does the Holy Spirit perceive the cause and looks not to | effects. How else could He correct your error, who have overlooked |

| Tx:4.6 | in terms. This is because the mind is split between the | ego and the Soul, so that whatever the ego makes is incomplete and |
| Tx:4.6 | the mind is split between the ego and the Soul, so that whatever the | ego makes is incomplete and contradictory. This untenable position is |
| Tx:4.8 | You believe that if you allow no change to enter into your | ego, your Soul will find peace. This profound confusion is possible |
| Tx:4.8 | can stand on two foundations. Nothing can reach the Soul from the | ego, and nothing from the Soul can strengthen the ego or reduce the |
| Tx:4.8 | the Soul from the ego, and nothing from the Soul can strengthen the | ego or reduce the conflict within it. The ego is a contradiction. |
| Tx:4.8 | Soul can strengthen the ego or reduce the conflict within it. The | ego is a contradiction. Man's self and God's Self are in opposition. |
| Tx:4.8 | irreconcilable because the Soul cannot perceive and the | ego cannot know. They are therefore not in communication and can |
| Tx:4.8 | communication and can never be in communication. Nevertheless, the | ego can learn because its maker can be misguided but cannot make the |
| Tx:4.8 | lifeless out of the life-given. The Soul need not be taught, but the | ego must. |
| Tx:4.9 | learning does lead to the relinquishment (not destruction) of the | ego to the light of the Soul. This is the change the ego must fear |
| Tx:4.9 | of the ego to the light of the Soul. This is the change the | ego must fear because it does not share my charity. My lesson was |
| Tx:4.10 | not really healing the level-split. You have dreamed of a separated | ego, and you have believed in a world which rests upon it. This is |
| Tx:4.11 | pupil or patient if they succeed. It is impossible to convince the | ego of this because it goes against all of its own laws. But remember |
| Tx:4.12 | It is natural enough for the | ego to try to protect itself once you have made it, but it is not |
| Tx:4.12 | for you to want to obey its laws unless you believe in them. The | ego cannot make this choice because of the nature of its origin. You |
| Tx:4.12 | cannot clash at all. If you perceive a teacher as merely a “larger | ego,” you will be afraid because to enlarge an ego is to increase |
| Tx:4.12 | as merely a “larger ego,” you will be afraid because to enlarge an | ego is to increase separation anxiety. I will teach with you and live |
| Tx:4.13 | ego-oriented teacher's goal. He is concerned with the effect of his | ego on other egos and therefore interprets their interaction as a |
| Tx:4.13 | other egos and therefore interprets their interaction as a means of | ego preservation. I would not be able to devote myself to teaching if |
| Tx:4.14 | your worth. This point is not debatable except in delusions. Your | ego is never at stake because God did not create it. Your Soul is |
| Tx:4.15 | The | ego tries to exploit all situations into forms of praise for itself |
| Tx:4.15 | are part of reality, which stands unchanged beyond the reach of your | ego but within easy reach of your Soul. When you are afraid, be still |
| Tx:4.15 | you are His beloved Son in whom He is well pleased. Do not let your | ego dispute this because the ego cannot know what is as far beyond |
| Tx:4.15 | He is well pleased. Do not let your ego dispute this because the | ego cannot know what is as far beyond its reach as you are. |
| Tx:4.17 | The word “inevitable” is fearful to the | ego but joyous to the Soul. God is inevitable, and you cannot avoid |
| Tx:4.17 | and you cannot avoid Him any more than He can avoid you. The | ego is afraid of the Soul's joy because, once you have experienced |
| Tx:4.17 | you have experienced it, you will withdraw all protection from the | ego and become totally without the investment in fear. Your |
| Tx:4.17 | is great now because fear is a witness to the separation, and your | ego rejoices when you witness to it. Leave it behind! Do not listen |
| Tx:4.18 | to others, and do not accept such a picture of them yourselves. The | ego has built a shabby and unsheltering home for you because it |
| Tx:4.18 | certain. God is as incapable of creating the perishable as the | ego is of making the eternal. |
| Tx:4.19 | everything for the salvation of both. Humility is a lesson for the | ego, not for the Soul. The Soul is beyond humility because it |
| Tx:4.20 | I will substitute for your | ego if you wish but never for your Soul. A father can safely leave a |
| Tx:4.20 | the child's origin. The brother can protect the child's body and his | ego, which are very closely related, but he does not confuse himself |
| Tx:4.20 | although the child may. I can be entrusted with your body and your | ego simply because this enables you not to be concerned with them and |
| Tx:4.25 | Each man makes one | ego for himself, although it is subject to enormous variation because |
| Tx:4.25 | mind as when it involves physical presence. Thinking about another | ego is as effective in changing relative perception as is physical |
| Tx:4.25 | interaction. There could be no better example of the fact that the | ego is an idea, though not a reality-based thought. |
| Tx:4.26 | Your own present state is a good example of how the mind made the | ego. You do have knowledge at times, but when you throw it away, it |
| Tx:4.27 | he regards as a very real part of himself. Man reacts to his | ego much as God does to His Souls: with love, protection, and great |
| Tx:4.27 | as timeless as he is. The question is not how man responds to his | ego, but what he believes he is. |
| Tx:4.28 | Belief is an | ego function, and as long as your origin is open to belief at all, |
| Tx:4.28 | your origin is open to belief at all, you are regarding it from an | ego viewpoint. [That is why the Bible quotes me as saying “Ye believe |
| Tx:4.28 | in me.” Belief does apply to me, because I am the teacher of the | ego.] When teaching is no longer necessary, you will merely know God. |
| Tx:4.28 | God. Belief that there is another way is the loftiest idea of which | ego thinking is capable. That is because it contains a hint of |
| Tx:4.28 | capable. That is because it contains a hint of recognition that the | ego is not the self. Undermining the ego's thought system must be |
| Tx:4.30 | is quite obvious when you consider the concepts involved. To the | ego, to give anything implies that you will do without it. When you |
| Tx:4.30 | the thing you give. “Giving to get” is an inescapable law of the | ego, which always evaluates itself in relation to other egos and is |
| Tx:4.30 | meaning of Freud's “reality principle” since Freud thought of the | ego as very weak and deprived, capable of functioning only as a thing |
| Tx:4.31 | The “reality principle” of the | ego is not real at all. The ego is forced to perceive the “reality” |
| Tx:4.31 | The “reality principle” of the ego is not real at all. The | ego is forced to perceive the “reality” of other egos because it |
| Tx:4.31 | only an attempt to convince itself that it is real. “Self esteem” in | ego terms means nothing more than that the ego has deluded itself |
| Tx:4.31 | is real. “Self esteem” in ego terms means nothing more than that the | ego has deluded itself into accepting its reality and is therefore |
| Tx:4.31 | delusion of the ego's reality is threatened. This produces either | ego deflation or ego inflation, resulting in either withdrawal or |
| Tx:4.31 | ego's reality is threatened. This produces either ego deflation or | ego inflation, resulting in either withdrawal or attack. |
| Tx:4.32 | The | ego literally lives by comparisons. This means that equality is |
| Tx:4.32 | equality is beyond its grasp and charity becomes impossible. The | ego never gives out of abundance, because it was made as a substitute |
| Tx:4.32 | is as true of bodily appetites as it is of the so-called “higher” | ego needs. Bodily appetites are not physical in origin. The ego |
| Tx:4.32 | “higher” ego needs. Bodily appetites are not physical in origin. The | ego regards the body as its home and does try to satisfy itself |
| Tx:4.32 | the body, but the idea that this is possible is a decision of the | ego, which is completely confused about what is really possible. This |
| Tx:4.33 | The | ego believes it is completely on its own, which is merely another way |
| Tx:4.33 | of the premise itself, because this premise is its foundation. The | ego is the belief of the mind that it is completely on its own. Its |
| Tx:4.34 | The Soul in its knowledge is unaware of the | ego. It does not attack it; it merely cannot conceive of it at all. |
| Tx:4.34 | not attack it; it merely cannot conceive of it at all. While the | ego is equally unaware of the Soul, it does perceive itself as |
| Tx:4.34 | “something” which is greater than itself. This is why self-esteem in | ego terms must be a delusion. The creations of God do not create |
| Tx:4.35 | are closely associated in that myths are usually related to the | ego origins and magic to the powers which the ego ascribes to itself. |
| Tx:4.35 | usually related to the ego origins and magic to the powers which the | ego ascribes to itself. Every mythological system includes some |
| Tx:4.35 | associated with physical birth, because no one maintains that the | ego existed before that point in time. The religiously ego-oriented |
| Tx:4.35 | and will continue to exist afterwards, after a temporary lapse in | ego life. Some actually believe that the Soul will be punished for |
| Tx:4.36 | without attack, so that wrong-mindedness is obliterated. The | ego cannot survive without judgment and is laid aside accordingly. |
| Tx:4.37 | validity. “Reliable behavior” is a meaningful perception as far as | ego thinking goes. However, “valid behavior” is an expression which |
| Tx:4.38 | it unless its status as fact is questioned. Every idea to which the | ego has accorded the status of fact is questionable, because facts |
| Tx:4.39 | That is why psychologists are concentrating increasingly on the | ego in an attempt to unify their clearly unrelated data. It need |
| Tx:4.40 | way of trying to impose order on chaos. We have already credited the | ego with considerable ingenuity, though not with creativeness. It |
| Tx:4.41 | have not understood it is because it is not understandable to the | ego, which interprets it as if something outside is inside, and this |
| Tx:4.41 | a state of mind. The Christ Mind wills from the Soul, not from the | ego, and the Christ Mind is yours. |
| Tx:4.42 | which your Soul created. It has not ceased to create because your | ego has set you on the road of perception. Your Soul's creations are |
| Tx:4.42 | Your Soul's creations are no more fatherless than you are. Your | ego and your Soul will never be co-creators, but your Soul and your |
| Tx:4.43 | The Kingdom is perfectly united and perfectly protected, and the | ego will not prevail against it. Amen. |
| Tx:4.45 | In its characteristically upside-down way, the | ego has taken the impulses from the superconscious and perceives them |
| Tx:4.45 | and perceives them as if they arise in the unconscious. The | ego judges what is to be accepted, and the impulses from the |
| Tx:4.45 | to it because they clearly point to the nonexistence of the | ego itself. The ego therefore experiences threat and not only censors |
| Tx:4.45 | they clearly point to the nonexistence of the ego itself. The | ego therefore experiences threat and not only censors but also |
| Tx:4.46 | most lofty ones from awareness because both are threatening to the | ego and, being concerned primarily with its own preservation in the |
| Tx:4.46 | primarily with its own preservation in the face of threat, the | ego perceives them as the same. The threat-value of the lofty is |
| Tx:4.46 | same. The threat-value of the lofty is actually much greater to the | ego because the pull of God Himself can hardly be equated with the |
| Tx:4.46 | the pull of human appetites. By perceiving them as the same, the | ego attempts to save itself from being swept away, as it would surely |
| Tx:4.47 | is why the basic conflict between love and fear is unconscious; the | ego cannot tolerate either and represses both by resorting to |
| Tx:4.47 | false in your unconscious so it can break through the barriers the | ego has set up and shine into your minds. Against our united |
| Tx:4.47 | set up and shine into your minds. Against our united strength, the | ego cannot prevail. |
| Tx:4.48 | It should be apparent to you by now why the | ego regards the Soul as its “enemy.” The ego arose from the |
| Tx:4.48 | to you by now why the ego regards the Soul as its “enemy.” The | ego arose from the separation, and its continued existence depends on |
| Tx:4.48 | separation. Having reduced the Soul impulses to the unconscious, the | ego has to offer you some sort of reward for maintaining this belief. |
| Tx:4.48 | has experienced the revelation of this can ever fully believe in the | ego again. How can its meager offering to you prevail against the |
| Tx:4.49 | does not love you. Being made out of the denial of the Father, the | ego has no allegiance to its own maker. You cannot conceive of the |
| Tx:4.49 | you made it. No human love is without this ambivalence, and since no | ego has experienced love without ambivalence, the concept is beyond |
| Tx:4.50 | is a kind of experience which is so different from anything the | ego can offer that you will never recover. The word “recover” is used |
| Tx:4.50 | for you but for which you must ask. This is not a condition as the | ego sets conditions. It is the glorious condition of what you are. |
| Tx:4.54 | In your own unconscious, deeply repressed by the | ego, is the declaration of your release. God has given you |
| Tx:4.54 | God has given you everything. This is the one fact that means the | ego does not exist and which therefore makes it profoundly afraid. In |
| Tx:4.55 | is ruthlessly banished from the part of the mind which the | ego rules. The ego is desperate because it opposes literally |
| Tx:4.55 | banished from the part of the mind which the ego rules. The | ego is desperate because it opposes literally invincible odds, |
| Tx:4.55 | how much vigilance you have been willing to exert to protect your | ego and how little you have been willing to expend to protect your |
| Tx:4.56 | choose to listen. The fact that you do listen to the voice of your | ego is demonstrated by your attitudes, your feelings, and your |
| Tx:4.56 | egos, and you do not seek the Face of God. The glass in which the | ego seeks to see its face is dark indeed. How can it maintain the |
| Tx:4.57 | about some Soul that God created and are perceiving images your | ego makes in a darkened glass. Think honestly what you have thought |
| Tx:4.58 | is one with God's. Denying this and thinking otherwise has held your | ego together but has literally split your mind. As a loving brother, |
| Tx:4.60 | anxious, know that all anxiety comes from the capriciousness of the | ego and need not be. You can be as vigilant against the ego's |
| Tx:4.61 | When you feel guilty, know that the | ego has indeed violated the laws of God, but you have not. Leave the |
| Tx:4.61 | violated the laws of God, but you have not. Leave the sins of the | ego to me. That is what Atonement is for. But until you change your |
| Tx:4.61 | Atonement is for. But until you change your mind about those your | ego has hurt, the Atonement cannot release you. As long as you feel |
| Tx:4.61 | the Atonement cannot release you. As long as you feel guilty, your | ego is in command because only the ego can experience guilt. This |
| Tx:4.61 | As long as you feel guilty, your ego is in command because only the | ego can experience guilt. This need not be. |
| Tx:4.62 | Watch your mind for the temptations of the | ego and do not be deceived by it. Know it offers you nothing. When |
| Tx:4.62 | Yet you are not sufficiently vigilant against the demands of the | ego to disengage yourself. This need not be. |
| Tx:4.63 | The disheartened are useless to themselves and to me, but only the | ego can be disheartened. Have you really considered how many |
| Tx:4.64 | Your mind and mine can unite in shining your | ego away and releasing the strength of God into everything you think |
| Tx:4.64 | defense, can be used to attack or protect, to hurt or to heal. The | ego should be brought to your judgment and found wanting there. |
| Tx:4.64 | own allegiance, protection, and love, it cannot exist. Judge your | ego truly, and you must withdraw allegiance, protection, and love |
| Tx:4.65 | being. His Mind still shines on you and must shine through you. Your | ego cannot prevent Him from shining on you, but it can prevent you |
| Tx:4.67 | with your higher mind whether you are asleep or awake, just as your | ego does with your lower mind. I am your vigilance in this, because |
| Tx:4.69 | in the ego's judgment. Control is a central factor in what the | ego permits into consciousness and one to which it devotes its |
| Tx:4.69 | way a balanced mind holds together. Its control is unconscious. The | ego is further off balance by keeping its primary motivation |
| Tx:4.69 | raising control rather than sensible judgment to predominance. The | ego has every reason to do this according to the thought system which |
| Tx:4.69 | which it serves. Sane judgment would inevitably judge against the | ego and must be obliterated by the ego in the interest of its |
| Tx:4.69 | inevitably judge against the ego and must be obliterated by the | ego in the interest of its self-preservation. |
| Tx:4.70 | must be insane. Yet this demented state is essential to the | ego, which judges only in terms of threat or non-threat to itself. In |
| Tx:4.70 | the idea of God is at least logical, since this idea does dispel the | ego. Fear of dissolution from the Higher Source, then, makes some |
| Tx:4.70 | makes some sense in ego-terms. But fear of the body, with which the | ego identifies so closely, is more blatantly senseless. |
| Tx:4.71 | by its own election. It is the only identification with which the | ego feels safe, because the body's vulnerability is its own best |
| Tx:4.71 | best argument that you cannot be of God. This is the belief that the | ego sponsors eagerly. Yet the ego hates the body because it does not |
| Tx:4.71 | be of God. This is the belief that the ego sponsors eagerly. Yet the | ego hates the body because it does not accept the idea that the body |
| Tx:4.71 | Here is where the mind becomes actually dazed. Being told by the | ego that it is really part of the body and that the body is its |
| Tx:4.72 | the mind asks, “Where can I go for protection?” to which the | ego replies, “Turn to me.” The mind, and not without cause, reminds |
| Tx:4.72 | replies, “Turn to me.” The mind, and not without cause, reminds the | ego that it has itself insisted that it is identified with the body, |
| Tx:4.72 | the body, so there is no point in turning to it for protection. The | ego has no real answer to this because there is none, but it does |
| Tx:4.74 | you want to learn are chosen because their value will not last. The | ego thinks it is an advantage not to commit itself to anything that |
| Tx:4.74 | must come from God. Eternalness is the one function which the | ego has tried to develop but has systematically failed. It may |
| Tx:4.74 | has systematically failed. It may surprise you to learn that had the | ego wished to do so it could have made the eternal because, as a |
| Tx:4.74 | decision to do this, rather than the ability to do it, is what the | ego cannot tolerate. That is because the decision, from which the |
| Tx:4.74 | involve accurate perception, a state of clarity which the | ego, fearful of being judged truly, must avoid. |
| Tx:4.75 | dilemma are peculiar, but no more so than the dilemma itself. The | ego has reacted characteristically here as elsewhere because mental |
| Tx:4.75 | here as elsewhere because mental illness, which is always a form of | ego involvement, is not a matter of reliability as much as of |
| Tx:4.75 | is not a matter of reliability as much as of validity. The | ego compromises with the issue of the eternal, just as it does with |
| Tx:4.76 | its value would decrease, and his own purpose would be defeated. The | ego has countenanced some strange compromises with the idea of the |
| Tx:4.77 | with problems set up to be incapable of solution are also favorite | ego devices for impeding the strong-willed from making real learning |
| Tx:4.77 | circle and carrying pi to infinity are good examples. A more recent | ego attempt is particularly noteworthy. The idea of preserving the |
| Tx:4.77 | suspension, thus giving it the kind of limited immortality which the | ego can tolerate, is among its more recent appeals to the mind. It is |
| Tx:4.79 | Psychologists are in a good position to realize that the | ego is capable of making and accepting as real some very distorted |
| Tx:4.80 | Such relatively minor confusions of the | ego are not among its more profound misassociations, although they do |
| Tx:4.82 | mind can grasp. “A little knowledge” is not dangerous except to the | ego. Vaguely it senses threat, and being unable to realize that “a |
| Tx:4.82 | phrase since “all” and “a little” in this context are the same, the | ego decides that, since “all” is impossible, the fear does not lie |
| Tx:4.82 | lie there. “A little,” however, is a scarcity concept, and this the | ego understands well. “A little,” then, is perceived as the real |
| Tx:4.83 | The essential thing to remember is that the | ego does not recognize the real source of its perceived threat, and |
| Tx:4.83 | of its perceived threat, and if you associate yourself with the | ego, you do not perceive the whole situation as it is. Only your |
| Tx:4.83 | the whole situation as it is. Only your allegiance to it gives the | ego any power over you. |
| Tx:4.84 | We have spoken of the | ego as if it were a separate thing acting on its own. This was |
| Tx:4.85 | The | ego is nothing more than a part of your belief about yourselves. Your |
| Tx:4.87 | The | ego cannot withstand the conditioning process because the process |
| Tx:4.87 | as eternal. Since this recognition is made by you and not the | ego, the recognition itself establishes that you and your ego cannot |
| Tx:4.87 | not the ego, the recognition itself establishes that you and your | ego cannot be identical. You may believe that you have already |
| Tx:4.87 | fact that you are preoccupied with the idea of escaping from the | ego shows this. |
| Tx:4.88 | You cannot escape from the | ego by humbling it or controlling it or punishing it. Remember that |
| Tx:4.88 | by humbling it or controlling it or punishing it. Remember that the | ego and the Soul do not know each other. The separated mind cannot |
| Tx:4.88 | repression against all truly natural impulses, not because the | ego is a separate thing, but because you want to believe that you |
| Tx:4.88 | a separate thing, but because you want to believe that you are. The | ego is a device for maintaining this belief, but it is still only |
| Tx:4.89 | have been chosen to live so as to demonstrate that you are not an | ego. I repeat that I do not choose God's channels wrongly. The Holy |
| Tx:4.93 | I am conditioning you to associate misery with the | ego and joy with the Soul. You have conditioned yourselves the other |
| Tx:4.93 | are still free to choose, but can you really want the rewards of the | ego in the presence of the rewards of God? |
| Tx:4.94 | is concrete. The concrete part is the same part that believes in the | ego because the ego depends on the specific. It is the part that |
| Tx:4.94 | concrete part is the same part that believes in the ego because the | ego depends on the specific. It is the part that believes your |
| Tx:4.95 | Everything the | ego perceives is a separate whole, without the relationships that |
| Tx:4.95 | is a separate whole, without the relationships that imply being. The | ego is thus against communication except in so far as it is utilized |
| Tx:4.95 | rather than to abolish it. The communication system of the | ego is based on its own thought system, as is everything else it |
| Tx:4.95 | all forms of perceived demands may be classified or judged by the | ego as coercive communication which must be disrupted, the response |
| Tx:4.100 | hardly means that you should tell Him how wonderful He is. He has no | ego with which to accept such thanks and no perception with which to |
| Tx:4.103 | emphasizes the body, while the vocational orientation stresses the | ego. The “team” approach generally leads more to confusion than to |
| Tx:4.104 | The | ego is likely to fear broken bodies because it cannot tolerate them. |
| Tx:4.104 | is likely to fear broken bodies because it cannot tolerate them. The | ego cannot tolerate ego weakness either without ambivalence because |
| Tx:4.104 | bodies because it cannot tolerate them. The ego cannot tolerate | ego weakness either without ambivalence because it is afraid of its |
| Tx:4.104 | well as the weakness of its chosen home. When it is threatened, the | ego blocks your natural impulse to help, placing you under the strain |
| Tx:4.104 | of divided will. You may then be tempted to withdraw to allow your | ego to recover and to gain enough strength to be helpful again on a |
| Tx:4.104 | to be helpful again on a basis limited enough not to threaten your | ego but too limited to give you joy. Those with broken bodies are |
| Tx:4.104 | you joy. Those with broken bodies are often looked down on by the | ego because of its belief that nothing but a perfect body is worthy |
| Tx:5.6 | is one of ideas, the whole belief in the false association which the | ego makes between giving and losing is gone. |
| Tx:5.19 | and the separation began at the same time. When man made the | ego, God placed in him the call to joy. This call is so strong that |
| Tx:5.19 | God placed in him the call to joy. This call is so strong that the | ego always dissolves at its sound. That is why you can choose to |
| Tx:5.35 | ego's viewpoint you are undertaking an ego-alien journey with the | ego as guide. This is bound to produce fear. |
| Tx:5.36 | Delay is of the | ego, because time is its concept. Delay is obviously a time idea. |
| Tx:5.36 | We have said before that the Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the | ego. Everything of which the Holy Spirit reminds you is in direct |
| Tx:5.36 | themselves opposed. The Holy Spirit has the task of undoing what the | ego has made. He undoes it in the same realm of discourse in which |
| Tx:5.36 | has made. He undoes it in the same realm of discourse in which the | ego itself operates, or the mind would be unable to understand the |
| Tx:5.37 | of the mind is not understandable to another. So it is with the | ego and the Soul, with time and eternity. Eternity is an idea of God, |
| Tx:5.37 | God, so the Soul understands it perfectly. Time is a belief of the | ego, so the lower mind, which is the ego's domain, accepts it without |
| Tx:5.37 | The literal nature of this statement does not mean anything to the | ego, which interprets it at best to mean “don't worry about the |
| Tx:5.38 | The Holy Spirit is the Mediator between the interpretations of the | ego and the knowledge of the Soul. His ability to deal with symbols |
| Tx:5.38 | speaks. He can thus perform the function of reinterpreting what the | ego makes, not by destruction but by understanding. Understanding is |
| Tx:5.39 | this that the Holy Spirit sees. This vision invariably frightens the | ego because it is so calm. Peace is the ego's greatest enemy because, |
| Tx:5.39 | interpretation of reality, war is the guarantee of its survival. The | ego becomes strong in strife. If you believe there is strife, you |
| Tx:5.39 | of danger has entered your mind. The idea itself is an appeal to the | ego. |
| Tx:5.40 | The Holy Spirit is as vigilant as the | ego to the call of danger, opposing it with His strength, just as the |
| Tx:5.40 | to the call of danger, opposing it with His strength, just as the | ego welcomes it with all its might. The Holy Spirit counters this |
| Tx:5.41 | The | ego is the symbol of separation, just as the Holy Spirit is the |
| Tx:5.41 | attempts to conceal this part, it is still much stronger than the | ego, even though the ego does not recognize it. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:5.41 | this part, it is still much stronger than the ego, even though the | ego does not recognize it. The Holy Spirit recognizes it perfectly, |
| Tx:5.42 | peace. If peace is eternal, you are at home only in eternity. The | ego made the world as it perceives it, but the Holy Spirit, the |
| Tx:5.42 | it perceives it, but the Holy Spirit, the reinterpreter of what the | ego made, sees it only as a teaching device for bringing you home. |
| Tx:5.47 | good was ever created and therefore cannot be protected. What the | ego makes, it keeps to itself, and so it is without strength. Its |
| Tx:5.48 | a little sharper now. Neurotic guilt feelings are a device of the | ego for “atoning” without sharing and for asking pardon without |
| Tx:5.48 | “atoning” without sharing and for asking pardon without change. The | ego never calls for real Atonement and cannot tolerate forgiveness, |
| Tx:5.50 | God and the Sonship is one, you cannot be limited to the “self” the | ego sees. Every loving thought held in any part of the Sonship |
| Tx:5.50 | it is loving. Sharing is God's way of creating and also yours. Your | ego can keep you in exile from the Kingdom, but in the Kingdom itself |
| Tx:5.51 | to receive my messages as I give them without interference by the | ego, so we can clarify an earlier point. We said that you will one |
| Tx:5.53 | to strengthen them. The union of the Sonship is its protection. The | ego cannot prevail against the Kingdom because it is united, and the |
| Tx:5.53 | ego cannot prevail against the Kingdom because it is united, and the | ego fades away and is undone in the presence of the attraction of the |
| Tx:5.59 | personally meaningful if the ego's use of guilt is clarified. The | ego has a purpose, just as the Holy Spirit has. The ego's purpose is |
| Tx:5.60 | guilt and must give rise to joy. This makes it invulnerable to the | ego because its peace is unassailable. It is invulnerable to |
| Tx:5.60 | fear is divisive because it obeys the law of division. If the | ego is the symbol of the separation, it is also the symbol of guilt. |
| Tx:5.60 | attack on God. This is a totally meaningless concept except to the | ego, but do not underestimate the power of the ego's belief in it. |
| Tx:5.61 | The | ego is the part of the mind which believes in division. How can part |
| Tx:5.61 | problem as involving the concept of usurping God's power. The | ego believes that this is what you did because it believes it is you. |
| Tx:5.61 | believes it is you. It follows, then, that if you identify with the | ego, you must perceive yourself as guilty. Whenever you respond to |
| Tx:5.61 | you must perceive yourself as guilty. Whenever you respond to your | ego, you will experience guilt and you will fear punishment. The ego |
| Tx:5.61 | ego, you will experience guilt and you will fear punishment. The | ego is quite literally a fearful thought. |
| Tx:5.62 | idea of attacking God may be to the sane mind, never forget that the | ego is not sane. It represents a delusional system, and it speaks for |
| Tx:5.63 | only your acceptance of it that makes it real. If you enthrone the | ego in it, the fact that you have accepted it or allowed it to enter |
| Tx:5.64 | The | ego does not perceive sin as a lack of love. It perceives sin as a |
| Tx:5.64 | attempt to remedy the situation. And you will succeed. The | ego regards this as doom, but you must learn to regard it as freedom. |
| Tx:5.65 | It might be better to say that it is a form of magical solution. The | ego believes that by punishing itself it will mitigate the punishment |
| Tx:5.66 | The | ego cannot oppose the laws of God any more than you can, but it can |
| Tx:5.67 | The Holy Spirit, like the | ego, is a decision. Together they constitute all the alternatives |
| Tx:5.67 | all the alternatives which the mind can accept and obey. The | ego and the Holy Spirit are the only choices open to you. God created |
| Tx:5.72 | peace. My role is only to unchain your will and make it free. Your | ego cannot accept this freedom and will oppose your free decision at |
| Tx:5.73 | of the same thing simultaneously, or almost simultaneously, for the | ego always speaks first. Alternate interpretations were unnecessary |
| Tx:5.73 | first one was made, and speaking itself was unnecessary before the | ego was made. |
| Tx:5.74 | The | ego speaks in judgment and the Holy Spirit reverses its decisions, |
| Tx:5.74 | on a complete fallacy which they were made to uphold. Nothing the | ego perceives is interpreted correctly. Not only does it cite |
| Tx:5.74 | as a witness for itself. The Bible is a fearful thing to the | ego because of its prejudiced judgment. Perceiving it as fearful, it |
| Tx:5.75 | to see how the ego's interpretations have misled you. A favorite | ego quotation is “As ye sow, so shall ye reap.” Another is “Vengeance |
| Tx:5.77 | fathers unto the third and fourth generation,” as interpreted by the | ego, is particularly vicious. It is used, in fact, as an attempt to |
| Tx:5.77 | thought must be undone. Even the word “undone” is fearful to the | ego, which interprets “I am undone” as “I am destroyed.” |
| Tx:5.78 | The | ego will not be destroyed because it is part of your thought, but |
| Tx:5.78 | you from fear. The part of your thought which you have given to the | ego will merely return to the Kingdom, where your whole mind belongs. |
| Tx:5.78 | merely return to the Kingdom, where your whole mind belongs. The | ego is a form of arrest, but arrest is merely delay. It does not |
| Tx:5.78 | delay. It does not involve the concept of punishment, although the | ego welcomes that interpretation. You can delay the completion of the |
| Tx:6.13 | to demonstrate that the most outrageous assault as judged by the | ego did not matter. As the world judges these things, but not as God |
| Tx:6.23 | systems. As such, it [is] the perfect symbol of conflict between the | ego and the Son of God. [It was as much intrapersonal as |
| Tx:6.27 | is to keep the separation going. It is solely a device of the | ego to make you feel different from your brothers and separated from |
| Tx:6.27 | you feel different from your brothers and separated from them. The | ego justifies this on the wholly spurious grounds that it makes you |
| Tx:6.28 | The | ego uses projection only to distort your perception both of yourself |
| Tx:6.28 | that there is another use of projection. Every ability of the | ego has a better counterpart, because its abilities are directed by |
| Tx:6.28 | by the mind which has a better Voice. The Holy Spirit as well as the | ego utilizes projection, but since their goals are opposed, so is the |
| Tx:6.31 | parallels knowledge, you will ultimately meet it and know it. The | ego would prefer to believe that this meeting is impossible, yet it |
| Tx:6.34 | then, is the recognition that the separation never occurred. The | ego cannot prevail against this because it is an explicit statement |
| Tx:6.34 | prevail against this because it is an explicit statement that the | ego never occurred. |
| Tx:6.35 | The | ego can accept the idea that return is necessary because it can so |
| Tx:6.37 | and projection as the Holy Spirit uses it is very simple. The | ego projects to exclude and therefore to deceive. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:6.38 | only by perceiving Him impartially can you perceive Him at all. The | ego is legion, but the Holy Spirit is One. No darkness abides |
| Tx:6.39 | natural talent. The word “knows” is correct here, even though the | ego does not know and is not concerned with being at all. |
| Tx:6.40 | is never threatened. Your Godlike mind can never be defiled. The | ego never was and never will be part of it, but through the ego you |
| Tx:6.40 | The ego never was and never will be part of it, but through the | ego you can hear and teach and learn what is not true. From this, |
| Tx:6.43 | your salvation lies in teaching the exact opposite of everything the | ego believes. This is how you will learn the truth that will set you |
| Tx:6.45 | Remember that the Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the question. The | ego always speaks first because it is capricious and does not mean |
| Tx:6.45 | He has brought you home and you no longer need His guidance. The | ego does not regard itself as part of you. Herein lies its primary |
| Tx:6.46 | That is why attack within the Kingdom is impossible. You made the | ego without love, and so it does not love you. You could not remain |
| Tx:6.46 | is love, you believe that you are without it. This enables the | ego to regard itself as separate and outside its maker, thus speaking |
| Tx:6.46 | mind that believes you are separate and outside the Mind of God. The | ego, then, raised the first question that was ever asked, but one |
| Tx:6.47 | The | ego has never answered any questions since, although it has raised a |
| Tx:6.47 | it has raised a great many. The most inventive activities of the | ego have never done more than obscure the question, because you have |
| Tx:6.47 | more than obscure the question, because you have the answer and the | ego is afraid of you. You cannot understand the conflict until you |
| Tx:6.47 | the conflict until you fully understand one basic fact that the | ego does not know. The Holy Spirit does not speak first, but He |
| Tx:6.48 | The | ego cannot hear the Holy Spirit, but it does believe that part of the |
| Tx:6.48 | it. Unless you do believe it you will not side with it, and the | ego feels badly in need of allies though not of brothers. Perceiving |
| Tx:6.48 | of brothers. Perceiving something alien to itself in your mind, the | ego turns to the body, not the mind, as its ally, because the body is |
| Tx:6.49 | The | ego and the body conspire against your minds, and because the ego |
| Tx:6.49 | The ego and the body conspire against your minds, and because the | ego realizes that its “enemy” can end them both merely by knowing |
| Tx:6.49 | perception of all if you consider what it really involves. The | ego, which is not real, attempts to persuade the mind, which is real, |
| Tx:6.50 | the one answer of the Holy Spirit to all the questions which the | ego raises. You are a Child of God, a priceless part of His Kingdom, |
| Tx:6.54 | are therefore helpless. This is the kind of “reasoning” which the | ego engages in, but God, Who knows that His creations are perfect, |
| Tx:6.61 | When your body and your | ego and your dreams are gone, you will know that you will last |
| Tx:6.61 | by not willing at all. Like any other impossible solution which the | ego attempts, it will not work. |
| Tx:6.62 | learning device for you. Again as always, He re-interprets what the | ego uses as an argument for separation into a demonstration against |
| Tx:6.65 | into knowledge. [You do not lose what you communicate.] The | ego uses the body for attack, for pleasure, and for pride. The |
| Tx:6.73 | first lesson is the hardest to learn. Still strongly aware of the | ego in himself and responding primarily to the ego in others, he is |
| Tx:6.73 | strongly aware of the ego in himself and responding primarily to the | ego in others, he is being taught to react to both as if what he does |
| Tx:6.74 | Upside-down as always, the | ego perceives the first lesson as insane. In fact this is its only |
| Tx:6.76 | and insanity. Only one is true, and therefore only one is real. The | ego tries to persuade you that it is up to you to decide which voice |
| Tx:6.83 | must remember, however, is that what the Holy Spirit rejects, the | ego accepts. This is because they are in fundamental disagreement |
| Tx:6.87 | against it. We said already that you can be as vigilant against the | ego as for it. This lesson teaches not only that you can be, but that |
| Tx:6.91 | to you. This is why you must be vigilant on God's behalf. The | ego speaks against His creation and therefore does engender doubt. |
| Tx:7.4 | The | ego demands reciprocal rights because it is competitive rather than |
| Tx:7.13 | The term “intrapersonal” is an | ego term, because “personal” implies “of one person” and not of |
| Tx:7.21 | the term “abilities” in the plural, because abilities began with the | ego, which perceived them as potentials for excelling. This is how |
| Tx:7.21 | which perceived them as potentials for excelling. This is how the | ego still perceives them and uses them. |
| Tx:7.22 | The | ego does not want to teach everyone all it has learned, because that |
| Tx:7.22 | not really learn at all. The Holy Spirit teaches you to use what the | ego has made to teach the opposite of what the ego has learned. The |
| Tx:7.22 | you to use what the ego has made to teach the opposite of what the | ego has learned. The kind of learning is as irrelevant as is the |
| Tx:7.24 | of your work with ease when you have learned this course. To the | ego there appears to be no connection, because the ego is |
| Tx:7.24 | course. To the ego there appears to be no connection, because the | ego is discontinuous. Yet the Holy Spirit teaches one lesson and |
| Tx:7.26 | meaning only by experiencing yourself as unreal. This is why the | ego is insane; it teaches that you are not what you are. This is so |
| Tx:7.26 | must therefore be teaching something else as well, even though the | ego does not know what it is. |
| Tx:7.27 | The | ego, then, is always being undone and does suspect your motives. Your |
| Tx:7.27 | your motives. Your mind cannot be unified in allegiance to the | ego, because the mind does not belong to it. Yet what is |
| Tx:7.27 | the mind does not belong to it. Yet what is “treacherous” to the | ego is faithful to peace. The ego's “enemy” is therefore your friend. |
| Tx:7.27 | We said before that the ego's friend is not part of you, since the | ego perceives itself as at war and therefore in need of allies. You |
| Tx:7.32 | is to believe you can do it. This can only be the voice of the | ego. |
| Tx:7.34 | you are remembering the laws of God and forgetting the laws of the | ego. We said before that forgetting is merely a way of remembering |
| Tx:7.35 | ability which opposes an opposite. That is the way in which the | ego tries to use all abilities, since its goal is always to make you |
| Tx:7.36 | their goals can never be reconciled in any way or to any extent. The | ego always seeks to divide and separate. The Holy Spirit always seeks |
| Tx:7.37 | pull or the Will of God is not an ability but a real delusion. The | ego believes that it has this ability and can offer it to you as a |
| Tx:7.38 | being is His. Healing is a way of forgetting the sense of danger the | ego has induced in you by not recognizing its existence in your |
| Tx:7.40 | Only minds communicate. Since the | ego cannot obliterate the impulse to communicate because it is also |
| Tx:7.40 | impulse to communicate because it is also the impulse to create, the | ego can only teach you that the body can both communicate and create |
| Tx:7.40 | communicate and create and therefore does not need the mind. The | ego thus tries to teach you that the body can act like the mind and |
| Tx:7.41 | communicate, but they cannot hurt. The body in the service of the | ego can hurt other bodies, but this cannot occur unless the body has |
| Tx:7.48 | you think that you have changed it as long as you learn through the | ego. This does place you in a position of needing to learn a lesson |
| Tx:7.49 | your mind about his for him, you help him undo the change his | ego thinks it has made in him. As you can hear two voices, so you can |
| Tx:7.50 | created you—in understanding, in appreciation, and in love. The | ego is totally unable to understand this, because it does not |
| Tx:7.54 | equally reciprocal. They make or create, depending on whether the | ego or the Holy Spirit begets or inspires them, but they will return |
| Tx:7.56 | The ingeniousness of the | ego to preserve itself is enormous, but it stems from the power of |
| Tx:7.56 | is enormous, but it stems from the power of the mind, which the | ego denies. This means that the ego attacks what is preserving it, |
| Tx:7.56 | the power of the mind, which the ego denies. This means that the | ego attacks what is preserving it, and this must be a source of |
| Tx:7.56 | it, and this must be a source of extreme anxiety. That is why the | ego never knows what it is doing. It is perfectly logical but clearly |
| Tx:7.56 | what it is doing. It is perfectly logical but clearly insane. The | ego draws upon the one source which is totally inimical to its |
| Tx:7.57 | Remaining logical but still insane, the | ego resolves this completely insane dilemma in a completely insane |
| Tx:7.57 | with it by guaranteeing that you will not know your own safety. The | ego cannot afford to know anything. Knowledge is total, and the ego |
| Tx:7.57 | The ego cannot afford to know anything. Knowledge is total, and the | ego does not believe in totality. This unbelief is its origin and, |
| Tx:7.57 | not believe in totality. This unbelief is its origin and, while the | ego does not love you, it is faithful to its own antecedents, |
| Tx:7.58 | Mind always reproduces as it was produced. Produced by fear, the | ego reproduces fear. This is its allegiance, and this allegiance |
| Tx:7.58 | to love, because you are love. Love is your power, which the | ego must deny. It must also deny everything which this power gives |
| Tx:7.58 | because it gives you everything. No one who has everything wants the | ego. Its own maker, then, does not want it. Rejection is therefore |
| Tx:7.58 | does not want it. Rejection is therefore the only decision which the | ego could possibly encounter, if the mind which made it knew itself. |
| Tx:7.59 | The | ego therefore opposes all appreciation, all recognition, all sane |
| Tx:7.62 | as if you are attacking Him. We have repeatedly emphasized that the | ego does believe it can attack God and tries to persuade you that you |
| Tx:7.62 | persuade you that you have done this. If the mind cannot attack, the | ego proceeds perfectly logically to the position that you cannot be |
| Tx:7.62 | are, it can see itself as it wants to be. Aware of its weakness, the | ego wants your allegiance, but not as you really are. The ego |
| Tx:7.62 | the ego wants your allegiance, but not as you really are. The | ego therefore wants to engage your mind in its own delusional system, |
| Tx:7.63 | The | ego wants no part of truth, because the truth is that the ego is not |
| Tx:7.63 | The ego wants no part of truth, because the truth is that the | ego is not true. If truth is total, the untrue cannot exist. |
| Tx:7.64 | that you believe what you can understand is up to you to decide. The | ego believes this totally, being fully committed to it. It is not |
| Tx:7.64 | this totally, being fully committed to it. It is not true. The | ego therefore is totally committed to untruth, perceiving in total |
| Tx:7.66 | and attack them for their unworthiness. That is all the world of the | ego is—nothing. It has no meaning. It does not exist. Do not try to |
| Tx:7.79 | is responsible for itself and being without allegiance to God, the | ego is incapable of trust. Projecting its insane belief that you have |
| Tx:7.81 | giving this only, you will be only this. The gifts you offer to the | ego are always experienced as sacrifices, but the gifts you offer to |
| Tx:7.82 | which unifies the Kingdom and keeps it in the Mind of God. To the | ego, the law is perceived as a way of getting rid of something it |
| Tx:7.83 | Projection, to the Holy Spirit, is the law of extension. To the | ego, it is the law of deprivation. It therefore produces abundance or |
| Tx:7.84 | The | ego always tries to preserve conflict. It is very ingenious in |
| Tx:7.84 | so intolerable that you will insist on giving it up. Therefore, the | ego tries to persuade you that it can free you of conflict, lest you |
| Tx:7.84 | to persuade you that it can free you of conflict, lest you give the | ego up and free yourself. The ego, using its own warped version of |
| Tx:7.84 | you of conflict, lest you give the ego up and free yourself. The | ego, using its own warped version of the laws of God, utilizes the |
| Tx:7.86 | That is why those who project from the | ego are vigilant for their own safety. They are afraid that their |
| Tx:7.87 | attack or be attacked. The belief that it can, a fallacy which the | ego always makes, underlies its whole use of projection. It does not |
| Tx:7.87 | you are. Yet its existence is dependent on your mind, because the | ego is your belief. The ego is therefore a confusion in |
| Tx:7.87 | is dependent on your mind, because the ego is your belief. The | ego is therefore a confusion in identification which never had a |
| Tx:7.88 | Do not be afraid of the | ego. It does depend on your mind and, as you made it by believing in |
| Tx:7.89 | because truth is beyond belief, and His perception is true. The | ego can be completely forgotten at any time, because it was always a |
| Tx:7.89 | he has judged to be unbelievable. The more you learn about the | ego, the more you realize that it cannot be believed. The incredible |
| Tx:7.90 | The whole purpose of this course is to teach you that the | ego is unbelievable and will forever be unbelievable. You who made |
| Tx:7.90 | is unbelievable and will forever be unbelievable. You who made the | ego by believing the unbelievable cannot make this judgment alone. By |
| Tx:7.91 | Sonship, or you withhold yourself from God. Selfishness is of the | ego, but self-fullness is of the Soul, because that is how God |
| Tx:7.91 | it. The Holy Spirit is the part of the mind that lies between the | ego and the Soul, mediating between them always in favor of the Soul. |
| Tx:7.91 | the Soul, mediating between them always in favor of the Soul. To the | ego, this is partiality, and it therefore responds as if it were the |
| Tx:7.92 | rendering its creations equally whole and equal in perfection. The | ego cannot prevail against a totality which includes God, and any |
| Tx:7.101 | reason is equally obvious. What is joyful to you is painful to the | ego and, as long as you are in doubt about what you are, you will be |
| Tx:7.101 | of sacrifice. Obey the Holy Spirit, and you will be giving up the | ego. But you will be sacrificing nothing. On the contrary, you will |
| Tx:7.102 | it is His. The ego's wishes do not mean anything, because the | ego wishes for the impossible. You can wish for the impossible, but |
| Tx:7.103 | to be fearful? The Holy Spirit never asks for sacrifice, but the | ego always does. When you are confused about this very clear |
| Tx:7.105 | relinquishment of your false decision-making prerogative, which the | ego guards so jealously, is not accomplished by your wish. It was |
| Tx:7.107 | perceives orders of difficulty in everything. This is because the | ego perceives nothing as wholly desirable. By demonstrating to |
| Tx:8.2 | you would hardly be willing to throw it away so readily when the | ego asks for your allegiance. The distraction of the ego seems to |
| Tx:8.2 | when the ego asks for your allegiance. The distraction of the | ego seems to interfere with your learning, but the ego has no power |
| Tx:8.2 | of the ego seems to interfere with your learning, but the | ego has no power to distract you unless you give it the power. |
| Tx:8.3 | they will be removed from your mind for you. Every response to the | ego is a call to war, and war does deprive you of peace. Yet in this |
| Tx:8.8 | that is the purpose of the curriculum, you must learn it of Him. The | ego does not know what it is trying to teach. It is trying to teach |
| Tx:8.8 | It is trying to teach you what you are without knowing it. The | ego is expert only in confusion. It does not understand anything |
| Tx:8.8 | which is quite impossible, you could learn nothing from the | ego because the ego knows nothing. |
| Tx:8.8 | quite impossible, you could learn nothing from the ego because the | ego knows nothing. |
| Tx:8.9 | the teacher to whom a Son of God should turn to find himself? The | ego has never given you a sensible answer to anything. Simply on the |
| Tx:8.9 | should not this alone disqualify it as your future teacher? Yet the | ego has done more harm to your learning than this alone. Learning is |
| Tx:8.10 | The | ego cannot teach you anything as long as your will is free, because |
| Tx:8.10 | will to be imprisoned, because your will is free. That is why the | ego is the denial of free will. It is never God who coerces you |
| Tx:8.10 | accord, because they are one. This is the undoing of everything the | ego tries to teach. It is not, then, only the direction of the |
| Tx:8.11 | The | ego wants to teach you that you want to oppose God's Will. This |
| Tx:8.20 | them. Your power and glory are in him, because they are yours. The | ego tries to find them in yourself, because it does not know where to |
| Tx:8.22 | To achieve the goal of the curriculum, then, you cannot listen to the | ego. Its purpose is to defeat its own goal. The ego does not know |
| Tx:8.22 | cannot listen to the ego. Its purpose is to defeat its own goal. The | ego does not know this, because it does not know anything. But you |
| Tx:8.22 | this, and you will know it if you are willing to look at what the | ego has made of you. This is your responsibility, because once you |
| Tx:8.23 | and glory are everywhere, and you cannot be excluded from them. The | ego teaches that your strength is in you alone. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:8.39 | When you unite with me, you are uniting without the | ego, because I have renounced the ego in myself and therefore cannot |
| Tx:8.39 | me, you are uniting without the ego, because I have renounced the | ego in myself and therefore cannot unite with yours. Our union is |
| Tx:8.39 | unite with yours. Our union is therefore the way to renounce the | ego in yourself. The truth in both of us is beyond the ego. By |
| Tx:8.39 | renounce the ego in yourself. The truth in both of us is beyond the | ego. By willing that, you have gone beyond it toward truth. Our |
| Tx:8.39 | have gone beyond it toward truth. Our success in transcending the | ego is guaranteed by God, and I can share [my perfect confidence in |
| Tx:8.40 | intrudes anywhere along the road to peace, it is always because the | ego has attempted to join the journey with us and cannot do so. |
| Tx:8.40 | with us and cannot do so. Sensing defeat and angered by it, the | ego regards itself as rejected and becomes retaliative. You are |
| Tx:8.40 | On this journey, you have chosen me as your companion instead of the | ego. Do not try to hold on to both, or you will try to go in |
| Tx:8.41 | the one for which God's Voice speaks in all of us. Never accord the | ego the power to interfere with the journey because it has none, |
| Tx:8.41 | Leave all deception behind and reach beyond all attempts of the | ego to hold you back. I go before you, because I am beyond the ego. |
| Tx:8.41 | the ego to hold you back. I go before you, because I am beyond the | ego. Reach therefore for my hand, because you want to transcend the |
| Tx:8.41 | ego. Reach therefore for my hand, because you want to transcend the | ego. My will will never be wanting, and if you want to share it you |
| Tx:8.54 | interprets everything you have made in the light of what He is. The | ego separates through the body. The Holy Spirit reaches through it to |
| Tx:8.61 | each other, so that it appears to be ruled by chaos. Guided by the | ego, it is. Guided by the Holy Spirit, it is not. It becomes only a |
| Tx:8.61 | of the Holy Spirit, where devotion to Him replaces devotion to the | ego. In this sense, the body does become a temple to God, because His |
| Tx:8.69 | it ascribes to it. It does not equate it with what it is. To the | ego, the body is to attack with. Equating you with the body, it |
| Tx:8.71 | other, making the concept of both health and sickness possible. The | ego makes a fundamental confusion between means and ends, as it |
| Tx:8.71 | means and ends, as it always does. Regarding the body as an end, the | ego has no real use for it because it is not an end. You must have |
| Tx:8.71 | have noticed an outstanding characteristic of every end that the | ego has accepted as its own. When you have achieved it, it has not |
| Tx:8.71 | When you have achieved it, it has not satisfied you. This is why the | ego is forced to shift from one end to another without ceasing, so |
| Tx:8.72 | because this is synonymous with the belief in attack as an end. The | ego has a real investment in sickness. If you are sick, how can you |
| Tx:8.74 | A more honest statement would be as follows: Those who want the | ego are predisposed to defend it. Therefore, their choice of |
| Tx:8.74 | their choice of witnesses should be suspect from the beginning. The | ego does not call upon witnesses who would disagree with its case, |
| Tx:8.74 | Holy Spirit and one which He is perfectly equipped to fulfill. The | ego as a judge gives anything but an impartial judgment. When the ego |
| Tx:8.74 | ego as a judge gives anything but an impartial judgment. When the | ego calls on a witness, it has already made the witness an ally. |
| Tx:8.75 | the body has no function of itself, because it is not an end. The | ego, however, establishes it as an end because as such it will lose |
| Tx:8.75 | will lose its true function. This is the purpose of everything the | ego does. Its sole aim is to lose sight of the function of |
| Tx:8.76 | and your extreme need to depend on external guidance. The | ego uses this as its best argument for your need for its guidance. It |
| Tx:8.77 | asking the guidance of a teacher who does not know the answer. The | ego is incapable of knowing how you feel. When we said that the ego |
| Tx:8.77 | The ego is incapable of knowing how you feel. When we said that the | ego does not know anything, we said the one thing about the ego that |
| Tx:8.77 | that the ego does not know anything, we said the one thing about the | ego that is wholly true. But there is a corollary; if knowledge is |
| Tx:8.77 | wholly true. But there is a corollary; if knowledge is being and the | ego has no knowledge, then the ego has no being. |
| Tx:8.77 | if knowledge is being and the ego has no knowledge, then the | ego has no being. |
| Tx:8.78 | you will not to tolerate anything except truth. When you lay the | ego aside, it will be gone. The Holy Spirit's Voice is as loud as |
| Tx:8.80 | everything, because He knows what the answer to everything is. The | ego does not know what a real question is, although it asks an |
| Tx:8.80 | Yet you can learn this as you learn to question the value of the | ego and thus establish your ability to evaluate its questions. When |
| Tx:8.80 | and thus establish your ability to evaluate its questions. When the | ego tempts you to sickness, do not ask the Holy Spirit to heal the |
| Tx:8.85 | The | ego, which always weakens the will, wants to separate the body from |
| Tx:8.85 | the body from the mind. This is an attempt to destroy it, yet the | ego actually believes that it is protecting it. This is because the |
| Tx:8.85 | ego actually believes that it is protecting it. This is because the | ego believes that mind is dangerous and that to make mindless is to |
| Tx:8.85 | since it would mean to make nothing out of what God created. The | ego despises weakness, even though it makes every effort to induce |
| Tx:8.85 | weakness, even though it makes every effort to induce it. The | ego wants only what it hates. To the ego this is perfectly sensible. |
| Tx:8.85 | every effort to induce it. The ego wants only what it hates. To the | ego this is perfectly sensible. Believing in the power of attack, the |
| Tx:8.85 | this is perfectly sensible. Believing in the power of attack, the | ego wants attack. |
| Tx:8.90 | afraid, but yours. Your will is not the ego's, and that is why the | ego is against you. What seems to be the fear of God is really only |
| Tx:8.100 | and so you are asking for nothing. Any desire which stems from the | ego is a desire for nothing and to ask for it is not a request. It is |
| Tx:8.100 | is not concerned with form at all, being aware only of meaning. The | ego cannot ask the Holy Spirit for anything because there is complete |
| Tx:9.1 | The alertness of the | ego to the errors which other egos make is not the kind of vigilance |
| Tx:9.1 | to them. To the Holy Spirit, it makes no sense at all. To the | ego, it is kind and right and good to point out errors and “correct” |
| Tx:9.1 | point out errors and “correct” them. This makes perfect sense to the | ego, which is totally unaware of what errors are and what correction |
| Tx:9.2 | Errors are of the | ego, and correction of errors of any kind lies solely in the |
| Tx:9.2 | of errors of any kind lies solely in the relinquishment of the | ego. When you correct a brother, you are telling him that he is |
| Tx:9.2 | sense at the time, and it is certain that if he is speaking from the | ego, he will be making no sense. But your task is still to tell him |
| Tx:9.2 | at another level. He is still right, because he is a Son of God. His | ego is always wrong, no matter what it says or does. |
| Tx:9.3 | If you point out the errors of your brother's | ego, you must be seeing through yours, because the Holy Spirit does |
| Tx:9.3 | This must be true if there is no communication at all between the | ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:9.3 | is no communication at all between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The | ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not attempt to |
| Tx:9.4 | not hearing Him. If you do not hear Him, you are listening to your | ego and making as little sense as the brother whose errors you |
| Tx:9.7 | by you is possible, and this can only be the arrogance of the | ego. Correction is of God, Who does not know of arrogance. The Holy |
| Tx:9.11 | Him, you cannot look on your abilities through the eyes of the | ego, or you will judge them as it does. All their harmfulness lies in |
| Tx:9.12 | The | ego, too, has a plan of forgiveness because you are asking for one, |
| Tx:9.12 | will merely place yourself in an impossible situation to which the | ego always leads you. The ego's plan is to have you see error clearly |
| Tx:9.13 | This is where the | ego is forced to appeal to “mysteries” and begins to insist that you |
| Tx:9.14 | all its effects everywhere and in all respects, He teaches that the | ego does not exist and proves it. Follow His teaching in forgiveness |
| Tx:9.15 | your function is. The confusion of functions is so typical of the | ego that you should be quite familiar with it by now. The ego |
| Tx:9.15 | of the ego that you should be quite familiar with it by now. The | ego believes that all functions belong to it, even though it has no |
| Tx:9.15 | of grandiosity and confusion which makes it likely that the | ego will attack anyone and anything for no reason at all. This is |
| Tx:9.15 | anyone and anything for no reason at all. This is exactly what the | ego does. It is totally unpredictable in its responses, because it |
| Tx:9.16 | of how you can account for the reactions, whether they place the | ego in a very sound position as the guide for yours. It seems absurd |
| Tx:9.17 | know it, and you have judged it by the same standard as I have. The | ego literally lives on borrowed time, and its days are numbered. Do |
| Tx:9.18 | fantasies, you will not find it. The symbols of fantasy are of the | ego, and of these you will find many. But do not look for meaning in |
| Tx:9.20 | because it is undertaken by unhealed healers and is therefore of the | ego. Let us consider the unhealed healer more carefully now. By |
| Tx:9.21 | We have repeatedly stated that beliefs of the | ego cannot be shared, and this is why they are unreal. How, then, can |
| Tx:9.22 | His retribution. What they have done is merely to identify with the | ego and, by perceiving clearly what it does, condemn themselves |
| Tx:9.24 | fear is to reduce the importance of the fearer, how can this build | ego strength? These perfectly self-evident inconsistencies account |
| Tx:9.25 | Because his | ego is involved, it always attempts to gain some support from the |
| Tx:9.26 | an impasse, the characteristic “impossible situation” to which the | ego always leads. It can be helpful to point out to a patient where |
| Tx:9.39 | and so obvious that it is often overlooked. That is because the | ego is afraid of the obvious since obviousness is the essential |
| Tx:9.40 | truly. And this evaluation must be in your mind because He is. The | ego is also in your mind, because you have accepted it there. Its |
| Tx:9.40 | however, is the exact opposite of the Holy Spirit's, because the | ego does not love you. It is unaware of what you are and wholly |
| Tx:9.40 | it perceives, because its own perceptions are so shifting. The | ego is therefore capable of suspiciousness at best and viciousness at |
| Tx:9.41 | by anything you do, because He never forgets what you are. The | ego is deceived by everything you do, even when you respond to the |
| Tx:9.41 | the Holy Spirit, because at such times its confusion increases. The | ego is, therefore, particularly likely to attack you when you react |
| Tx:9.42 | The | ego will begin to attack your motives as soon as they become clearly |
| Tx:9.42 | must therefore regard yourself as inadequate. Would you look to the | ego to help you escape from a sense of inadequacy it has produced and |
| Tx:9.44 | We said before that the | ego does not know what a real question is. Lack of knowledge of any |
| Tx:9.47 | Remember this when the | ego speaks, and you will not hear it. The truth about you is so lofty |
| Tx:9.48 | you. Whenever you become aware of it, however dimly, you abandon the | ego automatically, because in the presence of the grandeur of God the |
| Tx:9.48 | in the presence of the grandeur of God the meaninglessness of the | ego becomes perfectly apparent. Though it does not understand this, |
| Tx:9.48 | becomes perfectly apparent. Though it does not understand this, the | ego believes that its “enemy” has struck and attempts to offer gifts |
| Tx:9.48 | [is the only offering it can make. The grandiosity] of the | ego is its alternative to the grandeur of God. Which will you choose? |
| Tx:9.49 | delusional attempt to outdo but not to undo. We said before that the | ego vacillates between suspiciousness and viciousness. It remains |
| Tx:9.50 | The | ego does not know the difference between grandeur and grandiosity, |
| Tx:9.50 | impulses and ego-alien beliefs of its own. We once said that the | ego is aware of threat, but does not make distinctions between two |
| Tx:9.51 | The | ego is immobilized in the presence of God's grandeur, because His |
| Tx:9.51 | freedom. Even the faintest hint of your reality literally drives the | ego from your mind because of complete lack of investment in it. |
| Tx:9.51 | of reality will not remain with you unless you do not allow the | ego to attack it. The ego will make every effort to recover and |
| Tx:9.51 | remain with you unless you do not allow the ego to attack it. The | ego will make every effort to recover and mobilize its energies |
| Tx:9.53 | The | ego depends solely on your willingness to tolerate it. If you are |
| Tx:9.53 | your grandeur, you cannot despair, and therefore you cannot want the | ego. Your grandeur is God's answer to the ego because it is true. |
| Tx:9.53 | you cannot want the ego. Your grandeur is God's answer to the | ego because it is true. Littleness and grandeur cannot co-exist, nor |
| Tx:9.78 | image of what its maker thinks he is. And that is exactly what the | ego does perceive in a Son of God; a sick god, self-created, |
| Tx:10.1 | Either God or the | ego is insane. If you will examine the evidence on both sides fairly, |
| Tx:10.1 | fairly, you will realize that this must be true. Neither God nor the | ego proposes a partial thought system. Each is internally consistent, |
| Tx:10.2 | who really believed this question involves conflict? If you made the | ego, how can the ego have made you? The authority problem remains the |
| Tx:10.2 | this question involves conflict? If you made the ego, how can the | ego have made you? The authority problem remains the only source of |
| Tx:10.2 | problem remains the only source of perceived conflict, because the | ego was made out of the wish of God's Son to father Him. The ego, |
| Tx:10.2 | the ego was made out of the wish of God's Son to father Him. The | ego, then, is nothing more than a delusional system in which you made |
| Tx:10.2 | It sounds insane when it is stated with perfect honesty, but the | ego never looks upon what it does with perfect honesty. Yet that is |
| Tx:10.2 | hidden in the dark cornerstone of its thought system. And either the | ego, which you made, is your father, or its whole thought system will |
| Tx:10.13 | The projection of the | ego makes it appear as if God's Will is outside yourself and |
| Tx:10.20 | your mind so that He becomes your only Guest. Whenever you ask the | ego to enter, you lessen His welcome. He will remain, but you have |
| Tx:10.22 | Would you be hostage to the | ego or host to God? You will accept only whom you invite. You are |
| Tx:10.22 | there, although He cannot help you without your invitation, and the | ego is nothing whether you invite it in or not. Real freedom depends |
| Tx:10.35 | Lay it to yourself and you cannot know yourself, for only the | ego blames at all. Self-blame is therefore ego identification and as |
| Tx:10.35 | yourself, for only the ego blames at all. Self-blame is therefore | ego identification and as strong an ego defense as blaming others. |
| Tx:10.35 | at all. Self-blame is therefore ego identification and as strong an | ego defense as blaming others. You cannot enter God's Presence if you |
| Tx:10.39 | for we are merely looking honestly for truth. The “dynamics” of the | ego will be our lesson for a while, for we must look first at this to |
| Tx:10.41 | and the whole separation fallacy lies in the belief that the | ego has the power to do anything. The ego is fearful to you because |
| Tx:10.41 | lies in the belief that the ego has the power to do anything. The | ego is fearful to you because you believe this. Yet the truth is very |
| Tx:10.43 | When we look at the | ego, then, we are not considering dynamics but delusions. We can |
| Tx:10.43 | necessarily expended on nothing. The ego's goal is quite explicitly | ego autonomy. From the beginning, then, its purpose is to be |
| Tx:10.44 | the natural extension of what it is. Everything that stems from the | ego is the natural outcome of its central belief, and the way to undo |
| Tx:10.45 | believe that autonomy is meaningful apart from Him? The belief in | ego autonomy is costing you the knowledge of your dependence on God |
| Tx:10.45 | knowledge of your dependence on God in which your freedom lies. The | ego sees all dependency as threatening and has twisted even your |
| Tx:10.46 | The | ego always attacks on behalf of separation. Believing it has the |
| Tx:10.46 | does nothing else because its goal of autonomy is nothing else. The | ego is totally confused about reality, but it does not lose sight of |
| Tx:10.47 | What you must learn to recognize is that the last thing the | ego wishes you to realize is that you are afraid of it. For if the |
| Tx:10.47 | ego wishes you to realize is that you are afraid of it. For if the | ego gives rise to fear, it is diminishing your independence and |
| Tx:10.48 | The | ego can and does allow you to regard yourself as supercilious, |
| Tx:10.49 | fear, regardless of the form it takes and quite apart from how the | ego wants you to experience it, is therefore the basic ego threat. |
| Tx:10.49 | from how the ego wants you to experience it, is therefore the basic | ego threat. Its dream of autonomy is shaken to its foundation by this |
| Tx:10.49 | the cost of fear if you recognize it. Yet this is the cost, and the | ego cannot minimize it. For if you overlook love, you are overlooking |
| Tx:10.51 | with Him and fulfilling your function as it exists in truth. The | ego believes that to accomplish its goal is happiness. But it is |
| Tx:10.52 | Upheld by fear, this is what the | ego would have you believe. Yet God's Son is not insane and cannot |
| Tx:10.53 | The | ego analyzes; the Holy Spirit accepts. The appreciation of wholeness |
| Tx:10.53 | up is clearly the characteristically contradictory approach of the | ego to everything. Never forget that the ego believes that power, |
| Tx:10.53 | approach of the ego to everything. Never forget that the | ego believes that power, understanding, and truth lie in separation, |
| Tx:10.53 | and obsessed with the conviction that separation is salvation, the | ego attacks everything it perceives by breaking it up into small and |
| Tx:10.53 | parts without meaningful relationships and thus without meaning. The | ego will always substitute chaos for meaning, for if separation is |
| Tx:10.54 | and would have to be, the exact opposite of the Holy Spirit's. The | ego focuses on error and overlooks truth. It makes real every mistake |
| Tx:10.54 | error clearly in mind and protecting what it has made real, the | ego proceeds to the next step in its thought system—that error is |
| Tx:10.55 | The | ego makes no attempt to understand this, and it is clearly not |
| Tx:10.55 | to understand this, and it is clearly not understandable, but the | ego does make every attempt to demonstrate it, and this it does |
| Tx:10.55 | it, and this it does constantly. Analyzing to attack meaning, the | ego does succeed in overlooking it and is left with a series of |
| Tx:10.56 | anything, and those who are convinced by it must be deluded. Can the | ego teach truly when it overlooks truth? Can it perceive what it has |
| Tx:10.56 | do attest to its denial but hardly to what it has denied! The | ego looks straight at the Father and does not see Him, for it has |
| Tx:10.57 | that a lie is true. What you see of His Son through the eyes of the | ego is a demonstration that His Son does not exist, yet where the Son |
| Tx:10.58 | Every brother you meet becomes a witness for Christ or for the | ego, depending on what you perceive in him. Everyone convinces you of |
| Tx:10.59 | see it. The resurrection is the complete triumph of Christ over the | ego, not by attack but by transcendence. For Christ does rise above |
| Tx:10.59 | not by attack but by transcendence. For Christ does rise above the | ego and all its works and ascends to the Father and His Kingdom. |
| Tx:10.71 | The | ego sees some good but never only good. That is why its perceptions |
| Tx:11.9 | and face it without disguise as a crucial step in the undoing of the | ego. Consider how well the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the |
| Tx:11.26 | with a brother, for whatever reason, you are believing that the | ego is to be saved and to be saved by attack. If he attacks, you are |
| Tx:11.27 | both. He is asking for salvation, as you are. Poverty is of the | ego and never of God. No “outrageous” request can be made of one who |
| Tx:11.29 | To identify with the | ego is to attack yourself and make yourself poor. That is why |
| Tx:11.29 | and make yourself poor. That is why everyone who identifies with the | ego feels deprived. What he experiences then is depression or anger, |
| Tx:11.29 | fully aware of anxiety, he does not perceive its source as his own | ego identification, and he always tries to handle it by making some |
| Tx:11.30 | as the outside world is merely your attempt to maintain your | ego identification, for everyone believes that identification is |
| Tx:11.36 | The | ego is certain that love is dangerous, and this is always its central |
| Tx:11.36 | puts it this way; on the contrary, everyone who believes that the | ego is salvation is intensely engaged in the search for love. Yet the |
| Tx:11.36 | is salvation is intensely engaged in the search for love. Yet the | ego, though encouraging the search very actively, makes one proviso— |
| Tx:11.36 | up simply as, “Seek and do not find.” This is the one promise the | ego holds out to you and the one promise it will keep. For the ego |
| Tx:11.36 | the ego holds out to you and the one promise it will keep. For the | ego pursues its goal with fanatic insistence, and its reality |
| Tx:11.37 | The search which the | ego undertakes is therefore bound to be defeated. And since it also |
| Tx:11.37 | you to a journey which must end in perceived self-defeat. For the | ego cannot love, and in its frantic search for love, it is seeking |
| Tx:11.37 | what it is afraid to find. The search is inevitable because the | ego is part of your mind, and because of its source, the ego is not |
| Tx:11.37 | because the ego is part of your mind, and because of its source, the | ego is not wholly split off, or it could not be believed at all. For |
| Tx:11.37 | do so when you realize exactly what the journey is on which the | ego sets you. |
| Tx:11.38 | to find what would utterly defeat him. Being unable to love, the | ego would be totally inadequate in love's presence, for it could not |
| Tx:11.38 | that it had not taught you the response pattern you need. The | ego will therefore distort love and teach you that love calls forth |
| Tx:11.38 | love and teach you that love calls forth the responses which the | ego can teach. Follow its teaching, then, and you will search for |
| Tx:11.39 | Do you realize that the | ego must set you on a journey which cannot but lead to a sense of |
| Tx:11.53 | The | ego is trying to teach you how to gain the whole world and lose your |
| Tx:11.66 | that you see what you seek, for what you seek you will find. The | ego finds what it seeks and only that. It does not find love, for |
| Tx:11.75 | The | ego is not a traitor to God to Whom treachery is impossible, but it |
| Tx:11.75 | as long as you feel guilty, you are listening to the voice of the | ego, which tells you that you have been treacherous to God and |
| Tx:11.75 | death. You will think that death comes from God and not from the | ego because, by confusing yourself with the ego, you believe that you |
| Tx:11.75 | God and not from the ego because, by confusing yourself with the | ego, you believe that you want death. And from what you want, God |
| Tx:11.90 | hold it dear. For the blamelessness of Christ is the proof that the | ego never was and can never be. Without guilt the ego has no life, |
| Tx:11.90 | the proof that the ego never was and can never be. Without guilt the | ego has no life, and God's Son is without guilt. As you look upon |
| Tx:11.98 | is the ego's plan, which it offers instead of dispelling it. The | ego believes in atonement through attack, being fully committed to |
| Tx:11.98 | guilt must also believe it, for how else but by identifying with the | ego could you hold dear what you do not want? |
| Tx:11.99 | The | ego teaches you to attack yourself because you are guilty, and this |
| Tx:12.1 | The ultimate purpose of projection, as the | ego uses it, is always to get rid of guilt. Yet, characteristically, |
| Tx:12.1 | uses it, is always to get rid of guilt. Yet, characteristically, the | ego attempts to get rid of guilt from its viewpoint only, for much as |
| Tx:12.1 | to get rid of guilt from its viewpoint only, for much as the | ego wants to retain guilt, you find it intolerable, since guilt |
| Tx:12.1 | deepest split of all occurs, for if you are to retain guilt as the | ego insists, you cannot be you. Only by persuading you that it is |
| Tx:12.1 | you cannot be you. Only by persuading you that it is you, could the | ego possibly induce you to project guilt and thereby keep it in your |
| Tx:12.2 | why. On the contrary, you associate them with a weird assortment of | ego ideals which the ego claims you have failed. Yet you have no idea |
| Tx:12.2 | you associate them with a weird assortment of ego ideals which the | ego claims you have failed. Yet you have no idea that you are failing |
| Tx:12.4 | behavior is directly attributable to its definition of guilt. To the | ego, the guiltless are guilty. Those who do not attack are its |
| Tx:12.4 | and deepest cornerstone in the ego's foundation, and while the | ego can withstand your raising all else to question, it guards this |
| Tx:12.4 | secret. So it is this secret that we must look upon calmly, for the | ego cannot protect you against truth, and in its presence the ego is |
| Tx:12.4 | the ego cannot protect you against truth, and in its presence the | ego is dispelled. |
| Tx:12.5 | and indiscriminately, but you have not uncovered its source. For the | ego does want to kill you, and if you identify with it, you must |
| Tx:12.6 | We once said that the crucifixion is the symbol of the | ego. When it was confronted with the real guiltlessness of God's Son, |
| Tx:12.6 | reason it gave was that guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the | ego the ego is god, and guiltlessness must be interpreted as the |
| Tx:12.6 | it gave was that guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the ego the | ego is god, and guiltlessness must be interpreted as the final guilt |
| Tx:12.8 | accepted it for yourself. You have recognized the futility of the | ego and its offerings, but though you do not want the ego, you do not |
| Tx:12.8 | of the ego and its offerings, but though you do not want the | ego, you do not look upon the alternative with gladness. You are |
| Tx:12.11 | cornerstone without fear if you did not believe that, without the | ego, you would find within yourself something you fear even more. You |
| Tx:12.15 | not so dear as what you made. You are more afraid of God than of the | ego, and love cannot enter where it is not welcome. But hatred can, |
| Tx:12.23 | this world is healing, and your function in Heaven is creating. The | ego teaches that your function on earth is destruction and that you |
| Tx:12.26 | The | ego has a very strange notion of time, and it is with this notion |
| Tx:12.26 | it is with this notion that your questioning might well begin. The | ego invests heavily in the past and in the end believes that the past |
| Tx:12.26 | making them continuous without an intervening present. For the | ego uses the present only as a brief transition to the future, in |
| Tx:12.27 | Now has no meaning to the | ego. The present merely reminds it of past hurts, and it reacts to |
| Tx:12.27 | past hurts, and it reacts to the present as if it were the past. The | ego cannot tolerate release from the past, and although the past is |
| Tx:12.27 | release from the past, and although the past is no more, the | ego tries to preserve its image by responding as if it were present. |
| Tx:12.28 | opportunities which you could find for release in the present. The | ego would preserve your nightmares and prevent you from awakening and |
| Tx:12.29 | always meet yourself and the encounter is holy because you are. The | ego teaches that you always encounter your past, and because your |
| Tx:12.31 | The | ego, on the other hand, regards the function of time as one of |
| Tx:12.31 | extending itself in place of eternity, for like the Holy Spirit, the | ego interprets the goal of time as its own. The continuity of past |
| Tx:12.31 | of past and future under its direction is the only purpose the | ego perceives in time, and it closes over the present so that no gap |
| Tx:12.68 | hurt you. Ownership is a dangerous concept if it is left to you. The | ego wants to have things for salvation, for possession is its law. |
| Tx:12.69 | Everything that the | ego tells you that you need will hurt you. For although the ego urges |
| Tx:12.69 | that the ego tells you that you need will hurt you. For although the | ego urges you again and again to get, it leaves you nothing, for what |
| Tx:12.69 | it, it will be wrenched and hurled into the dust. For where the | ego sees salvation, it sees separation, and so you lose whatever you |
| Tx:13.12 | you will not escape the punishment it offers those who obey it. The | ego rewards fidelity to it with pain, for faith in it is pain. And |
| Tx:13.18 | Do not be afraid to look within. The | ego tells you all is black with guilt within you and bids you not to |
| Tx:13.45 | must be reconciled with truth. This is the reconciliation which the | ego would substitute for your reconciliation unto sanity and unto |
| Tx:13.45 | in His Mind for you, and one which He will effect as surely as the | ego will not effect what it attempts. |
| Tx:13.46 | Failure is of the | ego, not of God. From Him you cannot wander, and there is no |
| Tx:13.47 | The Holy Spirit uses logic as easily and as well as does the | ego, except that His conclusions are not insane. They take a |
| Tx:13.47 | a direction exactly opposite, pointing as clearly to Heaven as the | ego points to darkness and to death. We have followed much of the |
| Tx:13.68 | deciding between the crucifixion and the resurrection, between the | ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy |
| Tx:13.68 | and the resurrection, between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The | ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy Spirit the decision for |
| Tx:14.38 | to what you are. The bringing together of truth and illusion, of the | ego to God, is the Holy Spirit's only function. Keep not your making |
| Tx:14.39 | Bringing the | ego to God is but to bring error to truth, where it stands corrected |
| Tx:14.42 | God's reflection in it. Earth can reflect Heaven or hell; God or the | ego. You need but leave the mirror clean and clear of all the images |
| Tx:14.49 | some are reflections of Heaven, while others are motivated by the | ego, which but seems to think. The result is a weaving, changing |
| Tx:14.50 | do this and bring any order into chaos shows you that you are not an | ego and that more than an ego must be in you. For the ego is chaos, |
| Tx:14.50 | into chaos shows you that you are not an ego and that more than an | ego must be in you. For the ego is chaos, and if it were all of you, |
| Tx:14.50 | you are not an ego and that more than an ego must be in you. For the | ego is chaos, and if it were all of you, no order at all would be |
| Tx:14.50 | Yet though the order which you impose upon your minds limits the | ego, it also limits you. To order is to judge and to arrange by |
| Tx:14.52 | but only to the particular perception of his offering by which the | ego judges it. |
| Tx:14.53 | The | ego is incapable of understanding content and is totally unconcerned |
| Tx:14.53 | of understanding content and is totally unconcerned with it. To the | ego, if the form is acceptable, the content must be. Otherwise, it |
| Tx:14.53 | at all. For of yourselves you could not know of it. The study of the | ego is not the study of the mind. In fact, the ego enjoys the study |
| Tx:14.53 | it. The study of the ego is not the study of the mind. In fact, the | ego enjoys the study of itself and thoroughly approves the |
| Tx:14.54 | remains the ego's chosen condition. For no one alone can judge the | ego truly. Yet when two or more join together in searching for truth, |
| Tx:14.54 | Yet when two or more join together in searching for truth, the | ego can no longer defend its lack of content. The fact of union tells |
| Tx:14.73 | return, for you will have invited Him to do so by abandoning the | ego on behalf of Him. Call not upon the ego for anything. It is only |
| Tx:14.73 | to do so by abandoning the ego on behalf of Him. Call not upon the | ego for anything. It is only this that you need do. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:15.2 | seems to bring with it is due but to your identification with the | ego, which uses time to support its belief in destruction. The ego, |
| Tx:15.2 | the ego, which uses time to support its belief in destruction. The | ego, like the Holy Spirit, uses time to convince you of the |
| Tx:15.2 | you of the inevitability of the goal and end of teaching. To the | ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to the Holy Spirit the |
| Tx:15.3 | The | ego is an ally of time, but not a friend. For it is as mistrustful of |
| Tx:15.3 | as it is of life, and what it wants for you it cannot tolerate. The | ego wants you dead, but not itself. The outcome of its strange |
| Tx:15.3 | The belief in hell is inescapable to those who identify with the | ego. Their nightmares and their fears are all associated with it. |
| Tx:15.4 | The | ego teaches that hell is in the future, for this is what all its |
| Tx:15.4 | all its teaching is directed to. Hell is its goal, for although the | ego aims at death and dissolution as an end, it does not believe it. |
| Tx:15.4 | ego's thought system before, but never so clearly as here. For the | ego must seem to keep fear from you to keep your allegiance. Yet it |
| Tx:15.5 | Again the | ego tries and all too frequently succeeds in doing both by using |
| Tx:15.5 | contradictory aims together so that they seem to be reconciled. The | ego teaches thus: Death is the end as far as hope of Heaven goes. Yet |
| Tx:15.6 | The | ego teaches that Heaven is here and now because the future is hell. |
| Tx:15.6 | is here and bids him leap from hell into oblivion. The only time the | ego allows anyone to look upon with some amount of equanimity is the |
| Tx:15.7 | be the same is hidden a far more insidious threat to peace. The | ego does not advertise its final threat, for it would have its |
| Tx:15.7 | to the belief in hell, and always does. The only way in which the | ego allows the fear of hell to be experienced is to bring hell here, |
| Tx:15.8 | The Holy Spirit teaches thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the | ego has made of the present. The belief in hell is what prevents you |
| Tx:15.8 | are afraid of it. The Holy Spirit leads as steadily to Heaven as the | ego drives to hell. For the Holy Spirit, Who knows only the present, |
| Tx:15.8 | Who knows only the present, uses it to undo the fear by which the | ego would make the present useless. There is no escape from fear in |
| Tx:15.19 | how much you have misused your brothers by seeing them as sources of | ego support. As a result, they witness to the ego in your perception |
| Tx:15.19 | them as sources of ego support. As a result, they witness to the | ego in your perception and seem to provide reasons for not letting it |
| Tx:15.19 | His strength. It is, therefore, your choice whether they support the | ego or the Holy Spirit in you. And you will know which you have |
| Tx:15.26 | given him. We asked you once before, “Would you be hostage to the | ego or host to God?” Let this question be asked you by the Holy |
| Tx:15.27 | your attempts to deny His magnitude and make His Son hostage to the | ego cannot make little whom God has joined with Him. Every decision |
| Tx:15.37 | Be humble before Him and yet great in Him. And value no plan of the | ego before the plan of God. For you leave empty your place in His |
| Tx:15.39 | this course is simple is that truth is simple. Complexity is of the | ego and is nothing more than the ego's attempt to obscure the obvious. |
| Tx:15.45 | means. You are afraid of this because you believe that without the | ego all would be chaos. Yet I assure you that without the ego all |
| Tx:15.45 | the ego all would be chaos. Yet I assure you that without the | ego all would be love. |
| Tx:15.48 | uses special relationships, which you have chosen to support the | ego, as a learning experience which points to truth. Under His |
| Tx:15.65 | everything. This is not the basis for any relationship in which the | ego enters. For every relationship on which the ego embarks is |
| Tx:15.65 | in which the ego enters. For every relationship on which the | ego embarks is special. The ego establishes relationships only to get |
| Tx:15.65 | For every relationship on which the ego embarks is special. The | ego establishes relationships only to get something. And it would |
| Tx:15.66 | It is impossible for the | ego to enter into any relationship without anger, for the ego |
| Tx:15.66 | for the ego to enter into any relationship without anger, for the | ego believes that anger makes friends. This is not its statement, but |
| Tx:15.66 | friends. This is not its statement, but it is its purpose. For the | ego really believes that it can get and keep by making guilty. This |
| Tx:15.66 | would have no hold at all, except that no one recognizes it. For the | ego always seems to attract through love and has no attraction at all |
| Tx:15.68 | We said before that the | ego attempts to maintain and increase guilt, but in such a way that |
| Tx:15.68 | doctrine that what you do to others, you have escaped. The | ego wishes no one well. Yet its survival depends on your belief that |
| Tx:15.69 | around the chosen host of God, who cannot make himself host to the | ego. In the name of his release, and in the name of Him Who would |
| Tx:15.69 | release him, let us look more closely at the relationships which the | ego contrives and let the Holy Spirit judge them truly. For it is |
| Tx:15.70 | In one way or another, every relationship which the | ego makes is based on the idea that by sacrificing itself, it becomes |
| Tx:15.70 | to attack directly and avoid delaying what it really wants. Yet the | ego acknowledges “reality” as it sees it and recognizes that no one |
| Tx:15.71 | sacrifice himself as well. Forgiveness becomes impossible, for the | ego believes that to forgive another is to lose him. For it is only |
| Tx:15.71 | to lose him. For it is only by attack without forgiveness that the | ego can ensure the guilt which holds all its relationships together. |
| Tx:15.72 | Yet they only seem to be together. For relationships, to the | ego, mean only that bodies are together. It is always physical |
| Tx:15.72 | that bodies are together. It is always physical closeness that the | ego demands, and it does not object where the mind goes or what it |
| Tx:15.72 | as the body is there to receive its sacrifice, it is content. To the | ego, the mind is private, and only the body can be shared. Ideas are |
| Tx:15.73 | Suffering and sacrifice are the gifts with which the | ego would “bless” all unions. And those who are united at its altar |
| Tx:15.73 | at the ego's altar far exceeds your awareness of it. For what the | ego really wants, you do not realize. |
| Tx:15.74 | can be sure that you have formed a special relationship which the | ego has “blessed,” for anger is its blessing. Anger takes many forms, |
| Tx:15.74 | someone feel guilty, and this attempt is the only basis which the | ego accepts for special relationships. Guilt is the only need the ego |
| Tx:15.74 | ego accepts for special relationships. Guilt is the only need the | ego has, and as long as you identify with it, guilt will remain |
| Tx:15.76 | you will see safety in guilt and danger in communication. For the | ego will always teach that loneliness is solved by guilt and that |
| Tx:15.85 | As the | ego would limit your perception of your brothers to the body, so |
| Tx:15.86 | gratification what you think you want. The body is the symbol of the | ego, as the ego is the symbol of the separation. And both are nothing |
| Tx:15.86 | what you think you want. The body is the symbol of the ego, as the | ego is the symbol of the separation. And both are nothing more than |
| Tx:15.87 | given you. But to see this, it is necessary to give up every use the | ego has for the body and to accept the fact that the ego has no |
| Tx:15.87 | every use the ego has for the body and to accept the fact that the | ego has no purpose you would share with it. For the ego would limit |
| Tx:15.87 | fact that the ego has no purpose you would share with it. For the | ego would limit everyone to a body for its purposes, and while you |
| Tx:15.87 | will never be accomplished. Yet you have surely recognized that the | ego, whose goals are altogether unattainable, will strive for them |
| Tx:15.88 | to divide your strength between Heaven and hell, God and the | ego, and release your power unto creation, which is the only purpose |
| Tx:15.88 | you. Love would always give increase. Limits are demanded by the | ego, representing its demands to make little and ineffectual. Limit |
| Tx:15.89 | limited, and only those whom you would see without the limits the | ego would impose on them can offer you the gift of freedom. |
| Tx:15.91 | and renounce its use for separation and attack which the | ego sees in it, you will learn you have no need of a body at all. In |
| Tx:15.92 | it is the Holy Spirit's function to use them both, though not as the | ego uses them. This is the season when you would celebrate my birth |
| Tx:15.95 | mistake. It seems like many, but it is all the same. For though the | ego takes many forms, it is always the same idea. What is not love is |
| Tx:15.95 | is simply this—you believe that it is possible to be host to the | ego or hostage to God. This is the choice you think you have, and the |
| Tx:15.97 | As host to the | ego, you believe that you can give all your guilt away whatever you |
| Tx:15.97 | the payment does not seem to be yours. While it is obvious that the | ego does demand payment, it never seems to be demanding it of you. |
| Tx:15.97 | be demanding it of you. For you are unwilling to recognize that the | ego, which you invited, is treacherous only to those who think they |
| Tx:15.97 | is treacherous only to those who think they are its host. The | ego will never let you perceive this, since this recognition would |
| Tx:15.97 | recognition dawns clearly, you will not be deceived by any form the | ego takes to protect itself from your sight. |
| Tx:15.98 | demands! For total love would demand total sacrifice. And so the | ego seems to demand less of you than God, and of the two is judged as |
| Tx:15.100 | You will not succeed in being partial hostage to the | ego, for it keeps no bargains and would leave you nothing. [Nor can |
| Tx:16.1 | When He relates through you, He does not relate through the | ego to another ego. He does not join in pain, knowing that healing |
| Tx:16.1 | relates through you, He does not relate through the ego to another | ego. He does not join in pain, knowing that healing pain is not |
| Tx:16.2 | The clearest proof that empathy as the | ego uses it is destructive lies in the fact that it is applied only |
| Tx:16.2 | what is like itself.] Make no mistake about this maneuver; the | ego always empathizes to weaken, and to weaken is always to attack. |
| Tx:16.44 | the attempt to make guilty is always directed against God. For the | ego would have you see Him, and Him alone, as guilty, leaving the |
| Tx:16.44 | appeal to those unwilling to relinquish guilt. The “dynamics” of the | ego are clearest here, for counting on the attraction of this |
| Tx:16.46 | which He denied. It is essential to the preservation of the | ego that you believe this specialness is not hell, but Heaven. For |
| Tx:16.46 | that you believe this specialness is not hell, but Heaven. For the | ego would never have you see that separation can only be loss, being |
| Tx:16.47 | completion. There can be no disagreement on this, because both the | ego and the Holy Spirit accept it. They are, however, in complete |
| Tx:16.47 | lies first in union and then in the extension of union. To the | ego, completion lies in triumph and in the extension of the “victory” |
| Tx:16.47 | From this it follows that union, which is a condition in which the | ego cannot interfere, must be hell. |
| Tx:16.48 | The special relationship is a strange and unnatural | ego device for joining hell and Heaven and making them |
| Tx:16.49 | Most curious of all is the concept of the self which the | ego fosters in the special relationship. This “self” seeks the |
| Tx:16.50 | The “better” self the | ego seeks is always one that is more special. And whoever seems to |
| Tx:16.50 | him. Where both partners see this special self in each other, the | ego sees “a union made in Heaven.” For neither one will recognize |
| Tx:16.51 | of hell lies only in the terrible attraction of guilt, which the | ego holds out to those who place their faith in littleness. The |
| Tx:16.51 | ego's goals, is to destroy reality and substitute illusion. For the | ego is itself an illusion, and only illusions can be the witnesses to |
| Tx:16.59 | special relationship is the sign that you equate yourself with the | ego and not with God. For the special relationship has value only to |
| Tx:16.59 | and not with God. For the special relationship has value only to the | ego. To the ego unless a relationship has special value, it has no |
| Tx:16.59 | God. For the special relationship has value only to the ego. To the | ego unless a relationship has special value, it has no meaning, and |
| Tx:16.60 | You do not recognize that this is its real appeal, for the | ego has taught you that freedom lies in it. Yet the closer you look |
| Tx:16.62 | universe would enter into it. Yet the special relationship which the | ego seeks does not include even one whole individual. For the ego |
| Tx:16.62 | the ego seeks does not include even one whole individual. For the | ego wants but part of him and sees only this part and nothing else. |
| Tx:16.67 | Be glad you have escaped the mockery of salvation which the | ego offered you and look not back with longing on the travesty it |
| Tx:16.72 | on the past. It is completely savage and completely insane. For the | ego remembers everything that you have done which offended it and |
| Tx:16.72 | which to act out its hate are fantasies of your destruction. For the | ego holds the past against you, and in your escape from the past, it |
| Tx:16.72 | justly merit. Yet without your alliance in your own destruction, the | ego could not hold you to the past. |
| Tx:16.74 | of love is not profoundly shaken. Yet the one thing which the | ego never allows to reach awareness is that the special relationship |
| Tx:16.79 | of Atonement arising from His Love. Be an ally of God and not the | ego in seeking how Atonement can come to you. His help suffices, for |
| Tx:17.15 | to its power. It is these shadow figures which would make the | ego holy in your sight and teach you what you do to keep it safe is |
| Tx:17.20 | be undone. For separation must be corrected where it was made. The | ego seeks to “resolve” its problems, not at their source, but where |
| Tx:17.22 | it clear to you. God's Son is one. Whom God has joined as one, the | ego cannot break apart. The spark of holiness must be safe, however |
| Tx:17.24 | for entering into a continuing, unholy alliance with the | ego against the present. For the present is forgiveness. Therefore, |
| Tx:17.25 | is all the same. For you can never choose except between God and the | ego. Thought systems are but true or false, and all their attributes |
| Tx:17.29 | Spirit, Who was God's answer to the separation. For although the | ego did not understand what had been created, it was aware of threat. |
| Tx:17.30 | The whole defense system which the | ego evolved to protect the separation from the Holy Spirit was in |
| Tx:17.31 | The | ego is hyperalert to threat, and the part of your mind into which the |
| Tx:17.31 | is hyperalert to threat, and the part of your mind into which the | ego was accepted is very anxious to preserve its reason as it sees |
| Tx:17.32 | of delusions. You recognize, at least in general terms, that the | ego is insane. Yet the special relationship still seems to you |
| Tx:17.34 | has the most imposing and deceptive frame of all the defenses the | ego uses. Its thought system is offered here, surrounded by a frame |
| Tx:17.37 | seen as what it represents. For as the whole thought system of the | ego lies in its gifts, so the whole of Heaven lies in this instant, |
| Tx:17.46 | The temptation of the | ego becomes extremely intense with this shift in goals. For the |
| Tx:17.47 | the goal more slowly, for the contrast would be obscured and the | ego given time to reinterpret each slow step according to its liking. |
| Tx:17.49 | Now the | ego counsels thus—substitute for this another relationship to which |
| Tx:17.58 | anything. The reason for this disorganized approach is evident. The | ego does not know what it wants to come of it. It is aware of what it |
| Tx:17.59 | line. And now the only judgment left to make is whether or not the | ego likes it—is it acceptable, or does it call for vengeance? The |
| Tx:17.61 | again, you see the opposite of the ego's way of looking, for the | ego believes the situation brings the experience. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:17.62 | what you can give. Yet this is so only from the viewpoint of the | ego, for the ego believes in “solving” conflict through fragmentation |
| Tx:17.62 | can give. Yet this is so only from the viewpoint of the ego, for the | ego believes in “solving” conflict through fragmentation and does not |
| Tx:17.63 | with any aspect of the situation which seems to be difficult, the | ego will attempt to take this aspect elsewhere and resolve it there. |
| Tx:18.1 | is to exclude, and substitution is the strongest defense the | ego has for separation. |
| Tx:18.2 | The Holy Spirit never uses substitutes. Where the | ego perceives one person as a replacement for another, the Holy |
| Tx:18.2 | everything seems to come between the fragmented relationships the | ego sponsors to destroy. |
| Tx:18.14 | whatever seemed to attack you and change it into a tribute to your | ego, which was outraged by the “attack.” This would not be your wish |
| Tx:18.14 | This would not be your wish unless you saw yourself as one with the | ego, which always looks upon itself and therefore on you as under |
| Tx:18.15 | they are a way of looking at the world and changing it to suit the | ego better. They provide striking examples both of the ego's |
| Tx:18.32 | to give the Holy Spirit what He does not ask, or you will add the | ego unto Him and confuse the two. He asks but little. It is He who |
| Tx:18.73 | Within this kingdom the | ego rules, and cruelly. And to defend this little speck of dust, it |
| Tx:19.2 | him to the Holy Spirit and releasing him from every demand your | ego would make of him. Thus do you see him free, and in this vision |
| Tx:19.21 | Any attempt to reinterpret sin as error is always indefensible to the | ego. The idea of sin is wholly sacrosanct to its thought system and |
| Tx:19.22 | It can indeed be said the | ego made its world on sin. Only in such a world could everything be |
| Tx:19.22 | For sin has changed creation from an idea of God to an ideal the | ego wants; a world it rules, made up of bodies, mindless and capable |
| Tx:19.23 | of what the Son of God has made himself to be and what he is. To the | ego, this is no mistake. For this is its reality; this is the “truth” |
| Tx:19.24 | that is all it is. Perhaps you would be tempted to agree with the | ego that it is far better to be sinful than mistaken. Yet think you |
| Tx:19.25 | and will be forever desirable. As an essential part of what the | ego thinks you are, you will always want it. And only an avenger with |
| Tx:19.26 | The | ego does not think it possible that love, not fear, is really called |
| Tx:19.26 | not fear, is really called upon by sin and always answers. For the | ego brings sin to fear, demanding punishment. Yet punishment is but |
| Tx:19.56 | the symbol of your sin, and so I had to die instead of you. To the | ego sin means death, and so Atonement is achieved through murder. |
| Tx:19.58 | store and make your lives complete. This is completion, as the | ego sees it. For guilt creeps in where happiness has been removed and |
| Tx:19.71 | is essential that this relationship be understood, for it is one the | ego sees as proof of sin. It is not really punitive at all. It is but |
| Tx:19.73 | which they are invested is given by the sender and the receiver. The | ego and the Holy Spirit both recognize this, and both also recognize |
| Tx:19.73 | receiver are the same. The Holy Spirit tells you this with joy. The | ego hides it, for it would keep you unaware of it. Who would send |
| Tx:19.75 | madness, and believe not the impossible is true. Forget not that the | ego has dedicated the body to the goal of sin and places in it all |
| Tx:19.76 | from the Father and offering His messages unto the Son. Like the | ego, the Holy Spirit is both the sender and the receiver. For what is |
| Tx:19.76 | seeking itself along the way and finding what it seeks. So does the | ego find the death it seeks, returning it to you. |
| Tx:19.77 | to it and seek it out. And so it is with death. Made by the | ego, its dark shadow falls across all living things because the ego |
| Tx:19.77 | the ego, its dark shadow falls across all living things because the | ego is the “enemy” of life. |
| Tx:19.79 | not its source. And death is the result of the thought we call the | ego as surely as life is the result of the Thought of God. |
| Tx:19.80 | From the | ego came sin and guilt and death, in opposition to life and innocence |
| Tx:19.81 | glitter of guilt you laid upon the body would kill it. For what the | ego loves, it kills for its obedience. But what obeys it not, it |
| Tx:19.85 | Under the dusty edge of its distorted world, the | ego would lay the Son of God, slain by its orders, proof in his decay |
| Tx:19.88 | of fear comes over it, remember it is always for one reason—the | ego has perceived it as a symbol of fear, a sign of sin and death. |
| Tx:19.92 | sovereignty is but the solemn vow, the promise made in secret to the | ego never to lift this veil, not to approach it nor even to suspect |
| Tx:19.92 | suspect that it is there. This is the secret bargain made with the | ego to keep what lies beyond the veil forever blotted out and |
| Tx:19.93 | cruel, and tyrannical. You are no more afraid of death than of the | ego. These are your chosen friends. For in your secret alliance with |
| Tx:19.95 | the “holy” waxen image of death, and the fear of vengeance of the | ego you swore in blood not to desert, all rise and bid you not to |
| Tx:19.97 | Forget not that you came this far together. And it was surely not the | ego that led you here. No obstacle to peace can be surmounted through |
| Tx:20.17 | Adjustments of any kind are of the | ego. For it is the ego's fixed belief that all relationships depend |
| Tx:20.17 | which there are no interferences, are always seen as dangerous. The | ego is the self-appointed mediator of all relationships, making |
| Tx:20.20 | you. This sickly picture of yourself is carefully preserved by the | ego, whose image it is and which it loves, and placed outside you in |
| Tx:20.21 | The world the holy see is one with them, just as the world the | ego looks upon is like itself. The world the holy see is beautiful |
| Tx:20.39 | It is impossible to overestimate your brother's value. Only the | ego does this, but all it means is that it wants the other for itself |
| Tx:20.48 | for all that it could offer is seen as valueless. Homeless, the | ego seeks as many bodies as it can collect to place its idols in and |
| Tx:20.61 | cannot meaningfully be invested with attributes of Christ or of the | ego. Either must be an error, for both would place the attributes |
| Tx:20.62 | The body is the means by which the | ego tries to make the unholy relationship seem real. The unholy |
| Tx:21.20 | in it the whole exchange of separation for salvation. All that the | ego is, is an idea that it is possible that things should happen to |
| Tx:21.24 | We have already said that wishful thinking is how the | ego deals with what it wants to make it so. There is no better |
| Tx:21.41 | you would not be fearful to admit. Fear in association with sin the | ego deems quite appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no fear to |
| Tx:21.42 | Remember that the | ego is not alone. Its rule is tempered, and its unknown “enemy,” Whom |
| Tx:21.42 | its unknown “enemy,” Whom it cannot even see, it fears. Loudly the | ego tells you not to look inward, for if you do, your eyes will light |
| Tx:21.42 | not the ego's hidden fear, nor yours who serve it. Loudly indeed the | ego claims it is—too loudly and too often. For underneath this |
| Tx:21.42 | For underneath this constant shout and frantic proclamation, the | ego is not certain it is so. Beneath your fear to look within because |
| Tx:21.42 | within because of sin is yet another fear and one which makes the | ego tremble. |
| Tx:21.43 | you looked within and saw no sin? This “fearful” question is one the | ego never asks. And you who ask it now are threatening the ego's |
| Tx:21.43 | themselves from their belief that their identity lies in the | ego. A holy relationship is one in which you join with what is part |
| Tx:21.44 | insanity and on to reason. And what your reason tells you now, the | ego would not hear. The Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted by the |
| Tx:21.44 | The Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted by the part of your mind the | ego knows not of. No more did you. And yet this part with which you |
| Tx:21.45 | of release to come to you. And now you recognize that it was not the | ego that joined the Holy Spirit's purpose, and so there must be |
| Tx:21.47 | And now the | ego is afraid. Yet what it hears in terror, the other part hears as |
| Tx:21.47 | as the sweetest music—the song it longed to hear since first the | ego came into your minds. The ego's weakness is its strength. The |
| Tx:21.48 | What it would keep apart has met and joined, and looks upon the | ego unafraid. Little children, innocent of sin, follow in gladness |
| Tx:21.50 | of it needs your help because it is your choice. Listen to what the | ego says and see what it directs you see, and it is sure that you |
| Tx:21.51 | for help, the only one It makes. Miracles seem unnatural to the | ego because it does not understand how separate minds can influence |
| Tx:21.53 | such is clearly not the ego's “reasoning.” Its alien nature to the | ego is proof you will not find the answer there. Yet if it must be |
| Tx:21.56 | reason in insanity, for it depends entirely on reason's absence. The | ego never uses it because it does not realize that it exists. The |
| Tx:21.58 | and belief have shifted, and you have asked the question which the | ego will never ask. Does not your reason tell you now the question |
| Tx:22.16 | opposite of illusions is not disillusionment, but truth. Only to the | ego, to which truth is meaningless, do they appear to be the only |
| Tx:22.20 | Both reason and the | ego will tell you this, but what they make of it is not the same. The |
| Tx:22.20 | will tell you this, but what they make of it is not the same. The | ego will assure you now that it is impossible for you to see no guilt |
| Tx:22.21 | period in this course, for here the separation of you and the | ego must be made complete. For if you have the means to let the Holy |
| Tx:22.21 | used. And through their use will you gain faith in them. Yet to the | ego this must be impossible, and no one undertakes to do what holds |
| Tx:22.29 | thought system is the beginning of its undoing. For reason and the | ego are contradictory. Nor is it possible for them to co-exist in |
| Tx:22.29 | is not ambiguous. It can be understood. And here do reason and the | ego separate to go their different ways. |
| Tx:22.30 | of errors. It looks on nothing that can be corrected. Thus does the | ego damn and reason save. |
| Tx:22.32 | Only the form of error attracts the | ego. Meaning it does not recognize and does not know if it is there |
| Tx:22.32 | their form, can be corrected. Sin is but error in a special form the | ego venerates. It would preserve all errors and make them sins. For |
| Tx:22.46 | Consider what the | ego wants defenses for—always to justify what goes against the |
| Tx:22.65 | makes all fear impossible? Do not attempt to keep a little of the | ego with this gift. For it was given you to be used and not obscured. |
| Tx:22.65 | and not obscured. What teaches you you cannot separate, denies the | ego. Let truth decide if you be different or the same and teach you |
| Tx:23.7 | is cherished. Conflict within you must imply that you believe the | ego has the power to be victorious. Why else would you identify with |
| Tx:23.7 | Why else would you identify with it? Surely you realize the | ego is at war with God. Certain it is it has no enemy. Yet just as |

| Tx:4.31 | which actually refers to a condition in which the delusion of the | ego's reality is threatened. This produces either ego deflation or |
| Tx:4.32 | substitute for it. That is why the concept of “getting” arose in the | ego's thought system. All appetites are “getting” mechanisms, |
| Tx:4.32 | system. All appetites are “getting” mechanisms, representing the | ego's need to confirm itself. This is as true of bodily appetites as |
| Tx:4.35 | of magic. The “battle for survival” is nothing more than the | ego's struggle to preserve itself and its interpretation of its own |
| Tx:4.50 | without ambivalence, and this kind of wanting is wholly without the | ego's “drive to get.” There is a kind of experience which is so |
| Tx:4.54 | not exist and which therefore makes it profoundly afraid. In the | ego's language, remember, “to have” and “to be” are different, but |

| Tx:4.69 | things work together for good. There are no exceptions except in the | ego's judgment. Control is a central factor in what the ego permits |
| Tx:4.70 | A major source of the | ego's off-balanced state is its lack of discrimination between |
| Tx:4.70 | only in terms of threat or non-threat to itself. In one sense the | ego's fear of the idea of God is at least logical, since this idea |
| Tx:4.71 | The body is the | ego's home by its own election. It is the only identification with |
| Tx:4.75 | it hopes to hide the real question and keep it out of mind. The | ego's characteristic busyness with non-essentials is for precisely |
| Tx:4.96 | The specificity of the | ego's thinking, then, results in a spurious kind of generalization |
| Tx:4.103 | else because it is too often misused as a way of exerting the | ego's domination over other egos, rather than as a real experiment in |
| Tx:4.105 | rehabilitation back. Rehabilitation is not concerned either with the | ego's fight for control or its need to avoid and withdraw. You can do |
| Tx:5.35 | alone, your meditations will frighten you because by adopting the | ego's viewpoint you are undertaking an ego-alien journey with the ego |
| Tx:5.36 | of which the Holy Spirit reminds you is in direct opposition to the | ego's notions, because true and false perceptions are themselves |
| Tx:5.37 | Time is a belief of the ego, so the lower mind, which is the | ego's domain, accepts it without question. The only aspect of time |
| Tx:5.38 | His ability to deal with symbols enables Him to work against the | ego's beliefs in its own language. His equal ability to look beyond |
| Tx:5.39 | invariably frightens the ego because it is so calm. Peace is the | ego's greatest enemy because, according to its interpretation of |
| Tx:5.41 | to his will because part of his will is still for God. Despite the | ego's attempts to conceal this part, it is still much stronger than |
| Tx:5.59 | concepts will become clearer and more personally meaningful if the | ego's use of guilt is clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the |
| Tx:5.59 | clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the Holy Spirit has. The | ego's purpose is fear because only the fearful can be egotistic. The |
| Tx:5.59 | ego's purpose is fear because only the fearful can be egotistic. The | ego's logic is as impeccable as that of the Holy Spirit, because your |
| Tx:5.60 | concept except to the ego, but do not underestimate the power of the | ego's belief in it. This is the belief from which all guilt really |
| Tx:5.62 | a delusional system, and it speaks for it. Listening to the | ego's voice means that you believe it is possible to attack God. You |
| Tx:5.64 | act of assault. This is an interpretation which is necessary to the | ego's survival, because as soon as you regard sin as a lack you will |
| Tx:5.72 | thus ensure that the future will remain like the past. This is the | ego's continuity and gives it a false sense of security through the |
| Tx:5.74 | the lower courts' decisions about the laws of this world. The | ego's decisions are always wrong, because they are based on a |
| Tx:5.75 | We need cite only a few examples to see how the | ego's interpretations have misled you. A favorite ego quotation is |
| Tx:5.79 | with you. Remember the symbolic reference we made before to the | ego's dark glass, and remember also that we said, “Do not look |
| Tx:5.92 | and spirit with Him. Excluding yourself from the Atonement is the | ego's last-ditch defense of its own existence. It reflects both the |
| Tx:5.92 | ego's last-ditch defense of its own existence. It reflects both the | ego's need to separate and your willingness to side with its |
| Tx:6.26 | In the | ego's use of projection, to which we are obviously referring, what |
| Tx:6.31 | is the counterpart of the perfect equality of God's knowing. The | ego's perception has no counterpart in God, but the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:6.37 | The difference between the | ego's use of projection and projection as the Holy Spirit uses it is |
| Tx:6.48 | ally, because the body is not part of you. This makes the body the | ego's friend. It is an alliance frankly based on separation. If you |
| Tx:6.50 | because you will be awake. Your dreams have contained many of the | ego's symbols, and they have confused you. Yet that was only because |
| Tx:6.54 | perfect, does not insult them. This would be as impossible as the | ego's notion that it has insulted Him. |
| Tx:6.56 | A harsh and strident form of communication arose as the | ego's voice. It could not shatter the peace of God, but it could |
| Tx:6.74 | less acceptable to it, would obviously be that it is insane. The | ego's judgment, then, is predetermined by what it is, though no more |
| Tx:6.83 | being in fundamental disagreement about what you are. The | ego's beliefs on this crucial issue vary, and that is why it promotes |
| Tx:7.22 | applied them to a unified curriculum. The fact that this was not the | ego's reason for learning is totally irrelevant. |
| Tx:7.23 | and the Holy Spirit has a unified goal for all effort. He adapts the | ego's potentials for excelling to potentials for equalizing. This |
| Tx:7.23 | to potentials for equalizing. This makes them useless for the | ego's purpose but very useful for His. If different abilities are |
| Tx:7.27 | it. Yet what is “treacherous” to the ego is faithful to peace. The | ego's “enemy” is therefore your friend. We said before that the ego's |
| Tx:7.27 | The ego's “enemy” is therefore your friend. We said before that the | ego's friend is not part of you, since the ego perceives itself as at |
| Tx:7.36 | The | ego's goal is as unified as the Holy Spirit's, and it is because of |
| Tx:7.39 | the potential is used for. That is a decision. The effects of the | ego's decision in this matter are so apparent that they need no |
| Tx:7.41 | one He knows. He recognizes no other, because He does not accept the | ego's confusion of mind and body. Minds can communicate, but they |
| Tx:7.78 | of Heaven from him. This is the ultimate basis for all of the | ego's projection. |
| Tx:7.81 | Perceive any part of the | ego's thought system as wholly insane, wholly delusional, and wholly |
| Tx:7.83 | project, because that is how it lives, and every mind is life. The | ego's use of projection must be fully understood before its |
| Tx:7.88 | belief. When you are willing to accept sole responsibility for the | ego's existence yourself, you will have laid aside all anger and all |
| Tx:7.93 | than can the fullness of its Creator. Fullness is extension. The | ego's whole thought system blocks extension and thus blocks your only |
| Tx:7.97 | more true than your failure to acknowledge the whole result of the | ego's premises. The Kingdom is the result of premises, just as this |
| Tx:7.98 | You have carried the | ego's reasoning to its logical conclusion, which is total confusion |
| Tx:7.98 | not see the whole of it. You [therefore] are willing to look at the | ego's premises but not at their logical outcome. Is it not possible |
| Tx:7.102 | not wish. Your will is as powerful as His because it is His. The | ego's wishes do not mean anything, because the ego wishes for the |
| Tx:7.102 | wish for the impossible, but you can will only with God. This is the | ego's weakness and your strength. |
| Tx:8.3 | The | ego's voice is an hallucination. You cannot expect it to say, “I am |
| Tx:8.9 | to anything. Simply on the grounds of your own experience with the | ego's teaching, should not this alone disqualify it as your future |
| Tx:8.41 | The | ego's way is not mine, but it is also not yours. The Holy Spirit has |
| Tx:8.53 | enters your mind, you are equating yourself with a body. This is the | ego's interpretation of the body. You do not have to attack |
| Tx:8.61 | Soul can reach beyond its distortions and return to the Soul. The | ego's temple thus becomes the temple of the Holy Spirit, where |
| Tx:8.69 | Attitudes toward the body are attitudes toward attack. The | ego's definitions of everything are childish and always based on what |
| Tx:8.72 | It has been particularly difficult to overcome the | ego's belief in the body as an end, because this is synonymous with |
| Tx:8.72 | investment in sickness. If you are sick, how can you object to the | ego's firm belief that you are not invulnerable? This is a |
| Tx:8.72 | not invulnerable? This is a particularly appealing argument from the | ego's point of view because it obscures the obvious attack which |
| Tx:8.72 | decided against attack, you could not give this false witness to the | ego's stand. |
| Tx:8.73 | would not consider sickness such a strong witness on behalf of the | ego's views. |
| Tx:8.75 | Sickness is meaningful only if the two basic premises on which the | ego's interpretation of the body rests are true. Specifically, these |
| Tx:8.77 | feel. You do not know how you feel, because you have accepted the | ego's confusion, and you think that a learning device can tell you |
| Tx:8.78 | you want can distort what you see and hear. No one can doubt the | ego's skill in building up false cases. Nor can anyone doubt your |
| Tx:8.80 | Holy Spirit to heal the body, for this would merely be to accept the | ego's belief that the body is the proper aim for healing. Ask rather |
| Tx:8.82 | waking is joining. Dreams are illusions of joining, taking on the | ego's distortions about what joining means if you are sleeping under |
| Tx:8.90 | Will of God of which you are afraid, but yours. Your will is not the | ego's, and that is why the ego is against you. What seems to be the |
| Tx:9.12 | because you are asking for one, though not of the right teacher. The | ego's plan, of course, makes no sense and will not work. By following |
| Tx:9.12 | in an impossible situation to which the ego always leads you. The | ego's plan is to have you see error clearly first and then overlook |
| Tx:9.16 | for yours. It seems absurd to have to emphasize repeatedly that the | ego's qualifications as a guide are singularly unfortunate and that |
| Tx:9.17 | not fear the Last Judgment, but welcome it and do not wait, for the | ego's time is borrowed from your eternity. This is the Second Coming, |
| Tx:9.20 | The | ego's plan for forgiveness is far more widely used than God's. This |
| Tx:9.22 | All unhealed healers follow the | ego's plan for forgiveness in one form or another. If they are |
| Tx:9.23 | The newer forms of the | ego's plan are as unhelpful as the older ones, because form does not |
| Tx:9.23 | does not matter at all. According to the newer forms of the | ego's plan, the therapist interprets the ego's symbols in the |
| Tx:9.23 | to the newer forms of the ego's plan, the therapist interprets the | ego's symbols in the nightmare and then uses them to prove that the |
| Tx:9.24 | It is noteworthy that this is a contradiction even in the | ego's terms, and one which it usually does note, even in its |
| Tx:9.26 | an “unimportant mind” esteem itself without magic. Both forms of the | ego's approach, then, must arrive at an impasse, the characteristic |
| Tx:9.42 | in return. What can this mean except that you are agreeing with the | ego's evaluation of what you are? If you are willing to see yourself |
| Tx:9.43 | do not ask, “Who granted it?” The question is meaningless within the | ego's thought system, because it opens the whole thought system to |
| Tx:9.44 | your littleness, therefore, is to deny all knowledge and keep the | ego's whole thought system intact. You cannot retain part of a |
| Tx:9.44 | does stand. The Holy Spirit judges against the reality of the | ego's thought system merely because He knows its foundation is not |
| Tx:9.58 | you hear, for God does not deceive. He would have you replace the | ego's belief in littleness with His own exalted answer to the |
| Tx:9.78 | afraid of losing this?] Look calmly at the logical conclusion of the | ego's thought system and judge whether its offering is really what |
| Tx:9.95 | Allegiance to the denial of God is the | ego's religion. The god of sickness obviously demands the denial of |

| Tx:10.39 | they cannot be dangerous. We are ready to look more closely at the | ego's thought system because together we have the lamp that will |
| Tx:10.43 | Fear becomes more obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the | ego's goal, which is so clearly senseless that any effort exerted on |
| Tx:10.43 | effort exerted on its behalf is necessarily expended on nothing. The | ego's goal is quite explicitly ego autonomy. From the beginning, |
| Tx:10.44 | itself. The real conflict you experience, then, is between the | ego's idle wishes and the Will of God, which you share. Can this be a |
| Tx:10.45 | He became as dependent on you as you are on Him. Do not ascribe the | ego's arrogance to Him, Who wills not to be independent of you. He |
| Tx:10.48 | but not really afraid. Minimizing fear but not its undoing is the | ego's constant effort and is indeed the skill at which it is very |
| Tx:10.50 | If the | ego's goal of autonomy could be accomplished, God's purpose could be |
| Tx:10.50 | from the impossible and the false from the true. According to the | ego's teaching, its goal can be accomplished, and God's purpose can |
| Tx:10.51 | cannot be found apart from your joint will. Recognize only that the | ego's goal, which you have pursued quite diligently, has [only] |
| Tx:10.54 | The | ego's interpretation of the laws of perception are, and would have to |
| Tx:10.56 | Do not underestimate the appeal of the | ego's demonstrations to those who would listen. Selective perception |
| Tx:11.5 | are unwilling to give help and to receive it. The analysis of the | ego's “real” motivation is the modern equivalent of the inquisition, |
| Tx:11.37 | to it. Yet it is also your mind that has the power to deny the | ego's existence, and you will surely do so when you realize exactly |
| Tx:11.38 | for it could not respond at all. You would have to abandon the | ego's guidance, for it would be quite apparent that it had not taught |
| Tx:11.49 | We have said that the | ego's rule is, “Seek and do not find.” Translated into curricular |
| Tx:11.74 | and have condemned yourself to death. The death penalty is the | ego's ultimate goal, for it fully believes that you are a criminal, |
| Tx:11.74 | knows you are deserving of life. The death penalty never leaves the | ego's mind, for that is what it always reserves for you in the end. |
| Tx:11.87 | kill to save. If it did, attack would be salvation, and this is the | ego's interpretation, not God's. Only the world of guilt could demand |
| Tx:11.96 | is a way of holding past and future in your minds to ensure the | ego's continuity. For if what has been will be punished, the ego's |
| Tx:11.96 | the ego's continuity. For if what has been will be punished, the | ego's continuity is guaranteed. Yet the guarantee of your continuity |
| Tx:11.96 | guaranteed. Yet the guarantee of your continuity is God's, not the | ego's. And immortality is the opposite of time, for time passes away, |
| Tx:11.98 | dispel guilt by making it real and then atoning for it. This is the | ego's plan, which it offers instead of dispelling it. The ego |
| Tx:11.99 | must increase the guilt, for guilt is the result of attack. In the | ego's teaching, then, there is no escape from guilt. For attack makes |
| Tx:12.2 | Yet consider how strange a solution the | ego's arrangement is. You project guilt to get rid of it, but you are |
| Tx:12.3 | suspect this murderous but insane idea lies hidden there, for the | ego's destructive urge is so intense that nothing short of the |
| Tx:12.4 | Much of the | ego's strange behavior is directly attributable to its definition of |
| Tx:12.4 | go. They have approached the darkest and deepest cornerstone in the | ego's foundation, and while the ego can withstand your raising all |
| Tx:12.7 | you. Most of the time you dismiss it, but you do not dismiss the | ego's thought system. You have seen its results and you still lack |
| Tx:12.11 | You could look even upon the | ego's darkest cornerstone without fear if you did not believe that, |
| Tx:12.11 | afraid of crucifixion. Your real terror is of redemption. Under the | ego's dark foundation is the memory of God, and it is of this that |
| Tx:12.12 | is salvation to prevent you from this. For still deeper than the | ego's foundation, and much stronger than it will ever be, is your |
| Tx:12.14 | to cover your love, and the deeper you go into the blackness of the | ego's foundation, the closer you come to the love that is hidden |
| Tx:12.27 | point, obscuring their present reality. In effect, if you follow the | ego's dictates, you will react to your brothers as though they were |
| Tx:12.29 | the Holy Spirit's perception of time is the exact opposite of the | ego's. The reason is equally clear, for they perceive the goal of |
| Tx:12.68 | for possession is its law. Possession for its own sake is the | ego's fundamental creed, a basic cornerstone in the churches that it |
| Tx:13.11 | done so, they will condemn, linking the future to the past as is the | ego's law. Fidelity unto this law lets no light in, for it demands |
| Tx:13.11 | in, for it demands fidelity to darkness and forbids awakening. The | ego's laws are strict, and breaches are severely punished. Therefore |
| Tx:13.12 | Release from guilt is the | ego's whole undoing. Make no one fearful, for his guilt is yours, and |
| Tx:13.12 | Make no one fearful, for his guilt is yours, and by obeying the | ego's harsh commandments, you bring its condemnation of yourself, and |
| Tx:13.35 | Forgetfulness and sleep and even death become the | ego's best advice for how to deal with the perceived and harsh |
| Tx:13.47 | ego points to darkness and to death. We have followed much of the | ego's logic and have seen its logical conclusions. And having seen |
| Tx:14.14 | to whomever you see as guiltless. Crucifixion is always the | ego's aim. It sees as guilty, and by its condemnation, it would kill. |
| Tx:14.54 | This is characteristic of the | ego's judgments. Separately, they seem to hold, but put them together |
| Tx:14.54 | makes a cohesive system impossible. Separation therefore remains the | ego's chosen condition. For no one alone can judge the ego truly. Yet |
| Tx:15.4 | it craves for you, leaves it unsatisfied. No one who follows the | ego's teaching is without the fear of death. Yet if death were |
| Tx:15.4 | pain, would it be feared? We have seen this strange paradox in the | ego's thought system before, but never so clearly as here. For the |
| Tx:15.5 | it will pursue you still because guilt is eternal. Such is the | ego's version of immortality. And it is this the ego's version of |
| Tx:15.5 | Such is the ego's version of immortality. And it is this the | ego's version of time supports. |
| Tx:15.7 | How bleak and despairing is the | ego's use of time! And how terrifying! For underneath its fanatical |
| Tx:15.8 | would make the present useless. There is no escape from fear in the | ego's use of time. For time, according to its teaching, is nothing |
| Tx:15.14 | to exchange hell for Heaven. Long enough to transcend all of the | ego's making and ascend unto your Father. |
| Tx:15.39 | is simple. Complexity is of the ego and is nothing more than the | ego's attempt to obscure the obvious. |
| Tx:15.46 | The past is the | ego's chief learning device, for it is in the past that you learned |
| Tx:15.51 | The | ego's use of relationships is so fragmented that it frequently goes |
| Tx:15.68 | way that you do not recognize what it would do to you. For it is the | ego's fundamental doctrine that what you do to others, you have |
| Tx:15.73 | never without demand of sacrifice. The fury of those joined at the | ego's altar far exceeds your awareness of it. For what the ego really |
| Tx:15.76 | and its ability to overcome loneliness is but the working of the | ego's plan to establish its own autonomy. As long as you believe that |
| Tx:15.99 | and away from you and not be host to Him. To Him you ascribed the | ego's treachery, inviting it to take His place to protect you from |
| Tx:16.1 | for that is what you must refuse to understand. That is the | ego's interpretation of empathy and is always used to form a special |
| Tx:16.5 | you do not understand. Be tempted not in this, and yield not to the | ego's triumphant use of empathy for its glory. |
| Tx:16.22 | is certain that you judge yourself according to your teaching. The | ego's teaching produces immediate results because its decisions are |
| Tx:16.22 | judge yourself accordingly. Cause and effect are very clear in the | ego's thought system because all your learning has been directed |
| Tx:16.44 | attack and unprotected from it. The special love relationship is the | ego's chief weapon for keeping you from Heaven. It does not appear to |
| Tx:16.44 | will realize what it must be. The special love relationship is the | ego's most boasted gift, and one which has the most appeal to those |
| Tx:16.46 | born of the hidden wish for special love from God, that the | ego's hatred triumphs. For the special relationship is the |
| Tx:16.48 | union rests on exclusion. What better example could there be of the | ego's maxim, “Seek but do not find?” |
| Tx:16.50 | that he has asked for hell, and so he will not interfere with the | ego's illusion of Heaven, which it offered him to interfere with |
| Tx:16.51 | purpose of the special relationship, in strict accordance with the | ego's goals, is to destroy reality and substitute illusion. For the |
| Tx:16.72 | Do not underestimate the intensity of the | ego's drive for vengeance on the past. It is completely savage and |
| Tx:16.73 | to you is that the present is useless to you while you pursue the | ego's goal as its ally. The past is gone; seek not to preserve it in |
| Tx:16.75 | Against the | ego's insane notion of salvation, the Holy Spirit gently lays the |
| Tx:16.75 | opposites to point to truth. The holy instant is the opposite of the | ego's fixed belief in salvation through vengeance for the past. In |
| Tx:16.79 | and illusion—between the real Atonement which would heal and the | ego's “atonement” which would destroy. The power of God and all His |
| Tx:17.15 | why you should enter into unholy alliances which support the | ego's goals and make your relationships the witness to its power. It |
| Tx:17.18 | indeed unkind to the unholy relationship. For time is cruel in the | ego's hands, as it is kind when used for gentleness. The attraction |
| Tx:17.29 | hear the call of truth. In a sense the special relationship was the | ego's answer to the creation of the Holy Spirit, Who was God's answer |
| Tx:17.32 | we have looked at it far closer than at many other aspects of the | ego's thought system which you have been more willing to let go. |
| Tx:17.58 | beginning, for it is this which will determine the outcome. In the | ego's procedure, this is reversed. The situation becomes the |
| Tx:17.61 | because you are at peace. Here again, you see the opposite of the | ego's way of looking, for the ego believes the situation brings the |
| Tx:18.15 | to suit the ego better. They provide striking examples both of the | ego's inability to tolerate reality and your willingness to change |
| Tx:18.89 | it heavy and opaque, impenetrable, and a real foundation for the | ego's thought system. Its thinness and transparency are not apparent |
| Tx:19.18 | and defeat. Sin is the “grand illusion” underlying all the | ego's grandiosity. For by it, God Himself is changed and rendered |
| Tx:19.20 | A major tenet in the | ego's insane religion is that sin is not error but truth, and it is |
| Tx:19.21 | through reverence and awe. It is the most “holy” concept in the | ego's system—lovely and powerful, wholly true, and necessarily |
| Tx:19.23 | There is no stone in all the | ego's embattled citadel more heavily defended than the idea that sin |
| Tx:19.23 | then, the death of God, Whom sin has killed! And this would be the | ego's wish, which in its madness it thinks it has accomplished. |
| Tx:19.72 | that pain is pleasure. It is this idea that underlies all of the | ego's heavy investment in the body. And it is this insane |
| Tx:19.74 | The | ego's messages are always sent away from you in the belief that for |
| Tx:19.75 | chant the body's praise continually, in solemn celebration of the | ego's rule. Not one but must believe that yielding to the attraction |
| Tx:19.76 | It is not given to the | ego's disciples to realize that they have dedicated themselves to |
| Tx:19.78 | whose dedication it is not to live—the black-draped “sinners,” the | ego's mournful chorus, plodding so heavily away from life, dragging |
| Tx:19.79 | master. When you accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose in place of the | ego's, you renounced death, exchanging it for life. We know that an |
| Tx:19.83 | be the final and complete disruption of communication which is the | ego's goal. |
| Tx:19.84 | flow across seems to be very great. For in it lies hidden all the | ego's secrets, all its strange devices for deception, all its sick |
| Tx:19.84 | weird imaginings. Here is the final end of union, the triumph of the | ego's making over creation, the victory of lifelessness on Life |
| Tx:19.85 | orders, proof in his decay that God Himself is powerless before the | ego's might, unable to protect the life that He created against the |
| Tx:19.85 | ego's might, unable to protect the life that He created against the | ego's savage wish to kill. My brothers, children of our Father, this |
| Tx:20.17 | Adjustments of any kind are of the ego. For it is the | ego's fixed belief that all relationships depend upon adjustments to |
| Tx:20.48 | It does not seek for power, but for relationships. The body is the | ego's chosen weapon for seeking power through relationships. And its |
| Tx:20.55 | The body is the | ego's idol; the belief in sin made flesh and then projected outward. |
| Tx:20.76 | substitutes for all the terrifying sights and screaming sounds the | ego's purpose brought to your horrified awareness. They step away |
| Tx:21.42 | blind. This you believe, and so you do not look. Yet this is not the | ego's hidden fear, nor yours who serve it. Loudly indeed the ego |
| Tx:21.43 | one the ego never asks. And you who ask it now are threatening the | ego's whole defensive system too seriously for it to bother to |
| Tx:21.46 | teaches. This is the reasoning of the sane. You have perceived the | ego's madness and not been made afraid because you did not choose to |
| Tx:21.47 | song it longed to hear since first the ego came into your minds. The | ego's weakness is its strength. The song of freedom, which sings the |
| Tx:21.47 | now it sees that Heaven has come to earth at last, from which the | ego's rule has kept it out so long. Heaven has come because it found |
| Tx:21.48 | Look gently on each other and remember the | ego's weakness is revealed in both your sight. What it would keep |
| Tx:21.49 | The still small Voice for God is not drowned out by all the | ego's raucous screams and senseless ravings to those who want to hear |
| Tx:21.53 | your reason tell you if you listened. Yet such is clearly not the | ego's “reasoning.” Its alien nature to the ego is proof you will not |
| Tx:21.55 | from the goal of sin as are the others. For reason is beyond the | ego's range of means. |
| Tx:22.29 | The introduction of reason into the | ego's thought system is the beginning of its undoing. For reason and |
| Tx:22.30 | The | ego's whole continuance depends on its belief you cannot learn this |
| Tx:22.30 | can be corrected, and thus it must have been an error. The | ego's opposition to correction leads to its fixed belief in sin and |
| Tx:23.9 | that have no meaning. For your beliefs converge upon the body, the | ego's chosen home, which you believe is yours. You meet at a mistake |
| Tx:23.30 | Here is what makes your vengeance justified. Behold, unveiled, the | ego's secret gift, torn from your brother's body, hidden there in |
| Tx:25.39 | him and join with him in innocence and peace. And yet beneath the | ego's senseless shrieks, such is the call that God has given him that |
| W1:44.5 | speaking, this is the release from hell. Perceived through the | ego's eyes, it is loss of identity and a descent into hell. |
| W1:61.9 | Today's idea goes far beyond the | ego's petty views of what you are and what your purpose is. As a |
| W1:66.11 | and the many ways in which you tried to find salvation under the | ego's guidance. Did you find it? Were you happy? Did they bring you |
| W1:71.1 | of God's, you also believe that to accept God's plan in place of the | ego's is to be damned. This sounds preposterous, of course. Yet after |
| W1:71.1 | preposterous, of course. Yet after we have considered just what the | ego's plan is, perhaps you will realize that, however preposterous it |
| W1:71.2 | The | ego's plan for salvation centers around holding grievances. It |
| W1:71.5 | Such is the | ego's plan for your salvation. Surely you can see how it is in strict |
| W1:71.5 | salvation. Surely you can see how it is in strict accord with the | ego's basic doctrine, “Seek but do not find.” For what could more |
| W1:72.1 | While we have recognized that the | ego's plan for salvation is the opposite of God's, we have not yet |
| W1:72.2 | The | ego's fundamental wish is to replace God. In fact, the ego is the |
| W1:73.1 | considering the will you share with God. This is not the same as the | ego's idle wishes, out of which darkness and nothingness arise. The |
| W1:73.1 | The will you share with God has all the power of creation in it. The | ego's idle wishes are unshared and therefore have no power at all. |
| W1:73.2 | the world you see. The wishes of the ego gave rise to it, and the | ego's need for grievances, which are necessary to maintain it, |
| W1:73.4 | but the light of Heaven shines on it. Darkness has vanished; the | ego's idle wishes have been withdrawn. |
| W1:73.6 | in hell? Do you really want to weep and suffer and die? Forget the | ego's arguments which seek to prove all this is really Heaven. You |
| W1:75.5 | We do not see the | ego's shadow on the world today. We see the light, and in it we see |
| W1:106.1 | If you will lay aside the | ego's voice, however loudly it may seem to call; if you will not |
| W1:133.10 | he has merely failed to gain. He will believe that he has served the | ego's hidden goals. And though he tries to keep its halo clear within |
| W1:133.11 | of deep unworthiness within himself. He who would still preserve the | ego's goals and serve them as his own makes no mistakes according to |
| W1:133.12 | If you feel any guilt about your choice, you have allowed the | ego's goals to come between the real alternatives, and thus you do |
| W1:151.4 | be withheld from you. You cannot judge. You merely can believe the | ego's judgments, all of which are false. It guides your senses |
| W1:151.7 | what God loves, and in the holy light of what He sees do all the | ego's dreams of what you are vanish before the splendor He beholds. |
| M:22.3 | The idea that a body can be sick is a central concept in the | ego's thought system. This thought gives the body autonomy, separates |
| M:25.5 | to win back strength by guile. Many have not seen through the | ego's defenses here, although they are not particularly subtle. Yet, |

| Tx:16.11 | way to think of miracles is this: You do not understand them, | either in part or whole. Yet you have done them. Therefore, your |
| Tx:16.48 | has merely led to fantasies of both and to the inability to perceive | either one as it is. The special relationship is the triumph of this |

| Tx:11.9 | a step away from reality, not towards it. Yet we have repeatedly | emphasized the need to recognize fear and face it without disguise as |
| Tx:18.3 | from which the behavior stems. No one is seen complete. The body is | emphasized, with special emphasis on certain parts, and used as the |

| Tx:6.46 | since the Kingdom is love, you believe that you are without it. This | enables the ego to regard itself as separate and outside its maker, |
| Tx:6.84 | in order to unify the mind so it can perceive without judgment. This | enables the mind to teach without judgment and therefore to learn to |

| Tx:7.81 | and you have correctly evaluated all of it. This correction | enables you to perceive any part of creation as wholly real, wholly |

| Tx:12.26 | is meaningful. You will remember that we said its emphasis on guilt | enables it to ensure its continuity by making the future like the |

| Tx:20.70 | that makes it yours is ready to be given. You have the vision which | enables each one to see the body not. And as you look upon each |
| Tx:21.25 | effect appear to be a cause. This seeming independence of effect | enables it to be regarded as standing by itself and capable of |

| Tx:14.74 | faith in His Creator, and He knows that faith in His Creator must | encompass faith in His creation. In this consistency lies His |
| Tx:15.18 | that you have, you have forever. The blessed instant reaches out to | encompass time, as God extends Himself to encompass you. You who have |

| Tx:18.59 | of yourself and something else in which your mind enlarges to | encompass it. It becomes part of you as you unite with it. And both |

| Tx:8.14 | It has no boundaries because its extension is unlimited, and it | encompasses all things because it created all things. By creating all |
| Tx:8.38 | God's Oneness and ours are not separate, because His Oneness | encompasses ours. To join with me is to restore His power to you, |
| Tx:10.51 | God is as dependent on you as you are on Him because His autonomy | encompasses yours and is therefore incomplete without it. You can |
| Tx:11.30 | tolerate. A split mind is endangered, and the recognition that it | encompasses completely opposed thoughts within itself is intolerable. |

| Tx:8.19 | When you meet anyone, remember it is a holy | encounter. As you see him, you will see yourself. As you treat him, |
| Tx:8.22 | else, you had thought that he was someone else. And every holy | encounter in which you enter fully will teach you this is not so. |
| Tx:8.23 | You can | encounter only part of yourself, because you are part of God, Who is |
| Tx:12.29 | Would you recognize a holy | encounter if you are merely perceiving it as a meeting with your own |
| Tx:12.29 | are meeting no one, and the sharing of salvation, which makes the | encounter holy, is excluded from your sight. The Holy Spirit teaches |
| Tx:12.29 | sight. The Holy Spirit teaches that you always meet yourself and the | encounter is holy because you are. The ego teaches that you always |
| Tx:12.29 | encounter is holy because you are. The ego teaches that you always | encounter your past, and because your dreams were not holy, the |
| Tx:19.37 | yourselves to embrace all the Sonship and give it rest, it will | encounter many obstacles. Some of them you will try to impose. Others |
| Tx:24.72 | and both appear to walk this earth without a meeting-place and no | encounter. One do you see outside yourself, your own beloved son. The |
| W1:44.5 | form of exercise we will use today, but you may find that you will | encounter strong resistance. The reason is very simple. While you |
| W1:135.20 | present trust direct the future, and this life becomes a meaningful | encounter with the truth that only your defenses would conceal. |
| M:3.2 | students will become friends. Even at the level of the most casual | encounter, it is possible for two people to lose sight of separate |

| W1:152.12 | truth alone as we arise and spend five minutes practicing its ways, | encouraging our frightened minds with this: |
encroach (2) | ||
| Tx:13.53 | will merely attack direct approaches, which would seem but to | encroach upon deception and strike at it. |
| Tx:25.30 | as far beyond the chance of change. But on His vision sin cannot | encroach, for sin has been corrected by His sight. And thus it must |
end (270) | ||
| Tx:1.15 | it constructively. Time is thus a teaching device and a means to an | end. It will cease when it is no longer useful in facilitating |
| Tx:1.29 | that I do not need miracles for my own Atonement, but I stand at the | end in case you fail temporarily. The purpose of my part in the |
| Tx:1.40 | been abolished. Miracles are thus a means, and revelation is an | end. [In this sense, they work together.] Miracles do not depend on |
| Tx:2.41 | will proceed in time, but the whole Atonement stands at time's | end. At this point, the bridge of the return has been built. |
| Tx:2.69 | The fear of healing arises, in the | end, from an unwillingness to accept the unequivocal fact that |
| Tx:3.3 | will be more traumatic than beatific. Healing is of God in the | end. The means are being carefully explained to you. Revelation may |

| Tx:4.37 | expression which is inherently contradictory, because validity is an | end and behavior is a means. These cannot be combined logically, |
| Tx:4.37 | is a means. These cannot be combined logically, because when an | end has been attained, the means for its attainment are no longer |
| Tx:4.66 | Son of God. The second coming of Christ means nothing more than the | end of the ego's rule over part of the minds of men and the healing |
| Tx:6.31 | the future if time and space are one dimension. Your perception will | end where it began. Everything meets in God, because everything was |
| Tx:6.49 | your minds, and because the ego realizes that its “enemy” can | end them both merely by knowing they are not part of him, they join |
| Tx:8.26 | its illusion. I have told you that I am with you always, even to the | end of the world. That is why I am the light of the world. If I am |
| Tx:8.71 | between means and ends, as it always does. Regarding the body as an | end, the ego has no real use for it because it is not an end. You |
| Tx:8.71 | body as an end, the ego has no real use for it because it is not an | end. You must have noticed an outstanding characteristic of every end |
| Tx:8.71 | an end. You must have noticed an outstanding characteristic of every | end that the ego has accepted as its own. When you have achieved it, |
| Tx:8.71 | not satisfied you. This is why the ego is forced to shift from one | end to another without ceasing, so that you will continue to hope |
| Tx:8.72 | difficult to overcome the ego's belief in the body as an | end, because this is synonymous with the belief in attack as an end. |
| Tx:8.72 | an end, because this is synonymous with the belief in attack as an | end. The ego has a real investment in sickness. If you are sick, how |
| Tx:8.75 | true that the body has no function of itself, because it is not an | end. The ego, however, establishes it as an end because as such it |
| Tx:8.75 | because it is not an end. The ego, however, establishes it as an | end because as such it will lose its true function. This is the |
| Tx:10.6 | be separated from infinity, but how can this be if infinity has no | end? No one can be beyond the limitless because what has no limits |
| Tx:10.9 | without you, and you are meaningless without God. There is no | end to God and His Son, for we are the universe. God is not |
| Tx:10.11 | would know His gift to you? Give, then, without limit and without | end to learn how much He has given you. Your ability to accept Him |
| Tx:10.74 | simple course. Perhaps you do not feel that a course which, in the | end, teaches nothing more than that only reality is true is |
| Tx:10.75 | become one, even the real world will vanish from your sight. The | end of the world is not its destruction, but its translation into |
| Tx:11.18 | Learn to be quiet in the midst of turmoil, for quietness is the | end of strife and this is the journey to peace. Look straight at |
| Tx:11.34 | you will at last have placed its source, and where it began it must | end. For in this same place also lies salvation. The altar of God |
| Tx:11.37 | your identification, its guidance leads you to a journey which must | end in perceived self-defeat. For the ego cannot love, and in its |
| Tx:11.52 | unambiguous because the goal is not divided, and the means and the | end are in complete accord. You need offer only undivided attention. |
| Tx:11.74 | the ego's mind, for that is what it always reserves for you in the | end. Wanting to kill you as the final expression of its feeling for |
| Tx:11.74 | is not satisfied until you die. For your destruction is the one | end toward which it works, and the only end with which it will be |
| Tx:11.74 | your destruction is the one end toward which it works, and the only | end with which it will be satisfied. |
| Tx:11.86 | of the separation, as the acceptance of the Atonement is its | end. The world you see is the delusional system of those made mad by |
| Tx:11.91 | direction. Time seems to go in one direction, but when you reach its | end, it will roll up like a long carpet which has spread along the |
| Tx:11.92 | the Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The Holy Spirit stands at the | end of time, where you must be because He is with you. He has always |
| Tx:12.26 | might well begin. The ego invests heavily in the past and in the | end believes that the past is the only aspect of time that is |
| Tx:12.65 | him in Himself where pain is not and love surrounds him without | end or flaw. Disturbance of his peace can never be. In perfect sanity |
| Tx:12.71 | light and journey lightly, for His sight is ever on the journey's | end which is His goal. God's Son is not a traveler through outer |
| Tx:13.5 | one. Everyone seen without the past thus brings you nearer to the | end of time by bringing healed and healing sight into the darkness |
| Tx:13.25 | you will not look within, where you would always find Atonement. The | end of guilt will never come as long as you believe there is a reason |
| Tx:13.35 | real. Believing this, he must escape, for such a war would surely | end his peace of mind and so destroy him. Yet if he could but realize |
| Tx:13.56 | is true. This is the hardest lesson you will ever learn, and in the | end the only one. Simplicity is very difficult for twisted minds. |
| Tx:13.89 | You will feel guilty till you learn this. For in the | end, whatever form it takes, your guilt arises from your failure to |
| Tx:14.11 | will inevitably learn your innocence. The circle of Atonement has no | end. And you will find ever-increasing confidence in your safe |
| Tx:15.2 | uses time to convince you of the inevitability of the goal and | end of teaching. To the ego the goal is death, which is its end. But |
| Tx:15.2 | goal and end of teaching. To the ego the goal is death, which is its | end. But to the Holy Spirit the goal is life, which has no end. |
| Tx:15.2 | is its end. But to the Holy Spirit the goal is life, which has no | end. |
| Tx:15.4 | its goal, for although the ego aims at death and dissolution as an | end, it does not believe it. The goal of death, which it craves for |
| Tx:15.4 | without the fear of death. Yet if death were thought of merely as an | end to pain, would it be feared? We have seen this strange paradox in |
| Tx:15.5 | that they seem to be reconciled. The ego teaches thus: Death is the | end as far as hope of Heaven goes. Yet because you and itself cannot |
| Tx:15.7 | considers himself as deserving hell can believe that punishment will | end in peace. |
| Tx:16.27 | and love Him as His Father does. His Kingdom has no limits and no | end, and there is nothing in Him that is not perfect and eternal. All |
| Tx:17.12 | will become a dream and vanish from his mind. For salvation is the | end of dreams and with the closing of the dream will have no meaning. |
| Tx:18.63 | its comfort or protection or enjoyment in some way? This makes it an | end and not a means in your interpretation, and this always means you |
| Tx:18.83 | You have reached the | end of an ancient journey, not realizing yet that it is over. You are |
| Tx:18.94 | Yet even forgiveness is not the | end. Forgiveness does make lovely, but it does not create. It is the |
| Tx:18.95 | before Him Who is complete where He begins and where there is no | end. It is not for us to dwell on what cannot be attained. There is |
| Tx:19.45 | a little pause of gladness in acknowledgment of the journey's | end. For Heaven knows you well, as you know Heaven. No illusions |
| Tx:19.45 | No more can you be kept by shadows from the light in which illusions | end. Every miracle is but the end of an illusion. Such was the |
| Tx:19.45 | from the light in which illusions end. Every miracle is but the | end of an illusion. Such was the journey; such its ending. And in the |
| Tx:19.45 | And in the goal of truth which you accepted must all illusions | end. |
| Tx:19.49 | look past fear, so must fear see love not. For love contains the | end of guilt as surely as fear depends on it. [Love is attracted only |
| Tx:19.54 | dogs of fear you sent instead. And they go forth to signify the | end of fear. |
| Tx:19.64 | walk past barriers together when you have joined the limitless? The | end of guilt is in your hands to give. Would you stop now to look for |
| Tx:19.65 | Let me be to you the symbol of the | end of guilt, and look upon each other as you would look on me. |
| Tx:19.65 | you were with me. Would you see in me the symbol of guilt or of the | end of guilt, remembering that what I signify to you, you see within |
| Tx:19.66 | in Heaven. Send forth to all the world the joyous message of the | end of guilt, and all the world will answer. Think of your happiness |
| Tx:19.66 | Think of your happiness as everyone offers you witness of the | end of sin and shows you that its power is gone forever. Where can |
| Tx:19.69 | peace nor turmoil; neither pain nor joy. It is a means and not an | end. It has no purpose of itself, but only what is given to it. The |
| Tx:19.84 | the Voice that speaks for God. Yet the retreat to death is not the | end of conflict. Only God's Answer is its end. The obstacle of your |
| Tx:19.84 | to death is not the end of conflict. Only God's Answer is its | end. The obstacle of your seeming love for death that peace must flow |
| Tx:19.84 | all its sick ideas and weird imaginings. Here is the final | end of union, the triumph of the ego's making over creation, the |
| Tx:19.86 | will go as its appeal is yielded to love's real attraction. The | end of sin, which nestles quietly in the safety of your relationship, |
| Tx:19.86 | protection; it is yours. For it is deathless, and within it lies the | end of death. |
| Tx:19.90 | the Son of God entirely restored to sanity. For here your world does | end. |
| Tx:19.99 | you realize its purpose is accomplished? Here, with the journey's | end before you, you see its purpose. And it is here you choose |
| Tx:20.4 | [Easter is not the celebration of the cost of sin but of its | end.] If you see glimpses of the face of Christ behind the veil |
| Tx:20.24 | would have it be unholy. Give it no power to adjust the means and | end. |
| Tx:20.37 | of God's Son gradually join in time, and with each joining is the | end of time brought nearer. Each miracle of joining is a mighty |
| Tx:20.38 | Each herald of eternity sings of the | end of sin and fear. Each speaks in time of what is far beyond it. |
| Tx:20.41 | relationship. And while you look upon each other thus, the means and | end have not been brought in line. Why should it take so many holy |
| Tx:20.42 | Here is the loveliness of your relationship, with means and | end in perfect harmony already. Here is the perfect faith that you |
| Tx:20.58 | We have said much about discrepancies of means and | end and how these must be brought in line before your holy |
| Tx:20.58 | than others are merely indications of areas where means and | end are still discrepant. And this produces great discomfort. This |
| Tx:20.62 | Because of this consistency, the means remain unquestioned while the | end is cherished. Vision adapts to wish, for sight is always |
| Tx:20.64 | in their purpose. Both are but means, each one appropriate to the | end for which it is employed. Neither can serve the purpose of the |
| Tx:20.64 | purpose, employed on its behalf. Either is meaningless without the | end for which it was intended, nor is it valued as a separate thing |
| Tx:20.68 | its holy purpose was not made by you, the means by which its happy | end is yours is also not of you. Rejoice in what is yours but for the |
| Tx:20.68 | but for the asking and think not that you need make either means or | end. All this is given you who would but see your brother sinless. |
| Tx:20.72 | to the laws brought to it by His calm and certain sight. The | end for everything He looks upon is always sure. For it will meet His |
| Tx:21.56 | has no place at all in madness, nor can it be adjusted to fit its | end. Faith and belief are strong in madness, guiding perception |
| Tx:22.4 | the Son of God. For what is born into a holy relationship can never | end. |
| Tx:22.7 | you through a world of misery, waiting to tell you at the journey's | end why He did this to you. |
| Tx:22.51 | you value? Which is your goal? For one you see as means; the other, | end. And one must serve the other and lead to its predominance, |
| Tx:22.51 | increasing its importance by diminishing its own. Means serve the | end, and as the end is reached, the value of the means decreases, |
| Tx:22.51 | importance by diminishing its own. Means serve the end, and as the | end is reached, the value of the means decreases, eclipsed entirely |
| Tx:22.53 | disturbed at all to think how He can change the role of means and | end so easily in what God loves and would have free forever. But be |
| Tx:22.53 | But be you rather grateful that you can be the means to serve His | end. This is the only service which leads to freedom. To serve this |
| Tx:22.53 | end. This is the only service which leads to freedom. To serve this | end, the body must be perceived as sinless because the goal is |
| Tx:22.53 | The lack of contradiction makes the soft transition from means to | end as easy as is the shift from hate to gratitude before forgiving |
| Tx:23.10 | Brothers, the war against yourself is almost over. The journey's | end is at the place of peace. Would you not now accept the peace |
| Tx:23.31 | brother cease his attack on you for what you stole. Nor will God | end His vengeance upon both, for in His madness He must have this |
| Tx:23.39 | lies in each one. And where your thinking starts, there must it | end. |
| Tx:24.6 | by comparison with it. And thus does specialness become a means and | end at once. For specialness not only sets apart but serves as |
| Tx:24.26 | Forgiveness is the | end of specialness. Only illusions can be forgiven, and then they |
| Tx:24.55 | in countless situations and through time which seems to have no | end until the truth be your decision. For eternity is not regained by |
| Tx:24.56 | cause delay, which it is given you to take from him that both may | end a journey that has never been begun and needs no end. What never |
| Tx:24.56 | that both may end a journey that has never been begun and needs no | end. What never was is not a part of you. Yet you will think it is |
| Tx:24.67 | Here you are but means, along with it. God is a Means as well as | End. In Heaven, means and end are one, and one with Him. This is the |
| Tx:24.67 | along with it. God is a Means as well as End. In Heaven, means and | end are one, and one with Him. This is the state of true creation, |

| Tx:24.68 | Here do the means and end unite as one, nor does this one have any | end at all. All this is true, and yet it has no meaning to anyone who |
| Tx:25.6 | is a part of what it is your purpose to behold, for means and | end are never separate. And thus you learn what seems to have a life |
| Tx:25.26 | need the Son of God believes he has. Corrected error is the error's | end. And thus has God protected still His Son, even in error. There |
| Tx:25.83 | is there who can be separate from salvation if its purpose is the | end of specialness? Where is salvation's justice if some errors are |
| Tx:26.20 | This is the journey's | end. We have referred to it as the “real world.” And yet there is a |
| Tx:26.31 | Nothing is ever lost but time, which in the | end is [nothing. It] is but a little hindrance to eternity, quite |
| Tx:27.8 | the price for all of them if they enjoy their benefits or not. The | end of life must come, whatever way that life be spent. And so take |
| Tx:27.9 | belief that sin and death are real, and innocence and sin will | end alike within the termination of the grave. If this were true, |
| Tx:27.23 | a single function, that would mean a shared identity with but one | end. |

| Tx:28.31 | The end of dreaming is the | end of fear, and love was never in the world of dreams. The gap is |
| Tx:28.36 | years enter not, for time waits not upon this feast, which has no | end. For Love has set Its table in the space that seemed to keep your |
| Tx:29.38 | in different form. Forgiveness is your peace, for herein lies the | end of separation and the dream of danger and destruction, sin, and |
| Tx:29.39 | the universe that must be one. What seems eternal all will have an | end. The stars will disappear, and night and day will be no more. All |
| Tx:29.39 | with time and bloom and fade will not return. Where time has set an | end is not where the eternal is. God's Son can never change by what |
| Tx:29.41 | God established for His Son in full awareness. Time can set no | end to its fulfillment nor its changelessness. There is no death |

| Tx:31.34 | they seem to start, however differently they seem to go. Their | end is certain, for there is no choice among them. All of them will |
| Tx:31.35 | There is no choice where every | end is sure. Perhaps you would prefer to try them all before you |
| Tx:31.81 | despair, of failing dreams and no remaining hope except to die and | end the dream of fear. This is temptation, nothing more than this. |

| W1:8.8 | and so on, concluding at the | end of the mind-searching period with: |
| W1:12.6 | of these exercises, there is no difference between them. At the | end of the practice period, add: |
| W1:22.5 | At the | end of each practice period, ask yourself: |
| W1:26.12 | find some of them, especially those which occur to you toward the | end, less acceptable to you. Try, however, to treat them all alike to |
| W1:37.1 | anyone; everyone gains through your holy vision. It signifies the | end of sacrifice because it offers everyone his full due. And he is |
| W1:38.2 | Your holiness, then, can remove all pain, can | end all sorrow, and can solve all problems. It can do so in |
| W1:39.4 | asked now, or will be asked in the future. Your holiness means the | end of guilt and therefore the end of hell. Your holiness is the |
| W1:39.4 | the future. Your holiness means the end of guilt and therefore the | end of hell. Your holiness is the salvation of the world and your |
| W1:39.12 | End each practice period by repeating the idea in its original form | |
| W1:41.2 | The idea for today has the power to | end all this foolishness forever. And foolishness it is, despite the |
| W1:46.12 | The practice period should | end, however, with a repetition of today's idea as originally stated. |
| W1:R1.2 | appeals to you more than the others, concentrate on that one. At the | end of the day, however, be sure to review all of them once more. |
| W1:61.8 | Be sure both to begin and | end the day with a practice period. Thus you will awaken with an |
| W1:62.4 | Let us be glad to begin and | end this day by practicing today's idea and to use it as frequently |
| W1:68.9 | however briefly, that nothing can harm you in any way. At the | end of the practice period tell yourself: |
| W1:69.3 | function to fulfill. Learning salvation is our only goal. Let us | end the ancient search today by finding the light in us and holding |
| W1:72.10 | ourselves as we are. To see our Self as separate from the body is to | end the attack on God's plan for salvation and to accept it instead. |
| W1:73.9 | us with an illusion of strength. Today let your will be done. And | end forever the insane belief that it is hell in place of Heaven that |
| W1:75.10 | that has been promised you since time began, and in which is the | end of time ensured. |
| W1:79.3 | one is settled the next one and the next arise. There seems to be no | end to them. There is no time in which you feel completely free of |
| W1:97.4 | these ideas becomes a time which has no length and which has no | end. Give, then, these minutes willingly, and count on Him Who |
| W1:106.4 | His miracles are true. They will not fade when dreaming ends. They | end the dream instead and last forever, for they come from God to His |
| W1:107.2 | picture what it would be like to have that moment be extended to the | end of time and to eternity. |
| W1:109.2 | to that same truth in everyone and everything there is. Here is the | end of suffering for all the world and everyone who ever came and yet |
| W1:121.1 | quietness and peace. Here are all questions answered; here the | end of all uncertainty ensured at last. |
| W1:122.10 | do we gladly give a quarter of an hour to the search in which the | end of hell is guaranteed. Begin in hopefulness, for we have reached |
| W1:128.2 | but a chain that binds you to the world, and it will serve no other | end but this. For everything must serve the purpose you have given it |
| W1:129.2 | found, for none is here. This is the world of time, where all things | end. |
| W1:131.5 | really want. No one can fail to want this goal and reach it in the | end. God's Son cannot seek vainly, though he try to force delay, |
| W1:132.13 | What He creates is not apart from Him, and nowhere does the Father | end, the Son begin as something separate from Him. |
| W1:138.7 | hell is real, hope changes to despair, and life itself must in the | end be overcome by death. In death alone are opposites resolved, for |
| W1:138.7 | death, for life is seen as conflict. To resolve the conflict is to | end your life as well. |
| W1:139.1 | Here is the | end of choice. For here we come to a decision to accept ourselves as |
| W1:140.2 | it was before. He has not seen the light that would awaken him and | end the dream. What difference does the content of a dream make in |
| W1:140.10 | hear a single Voice which speaks to us of truth where all illusions | end, and peace returns to the eternal quiet home of God. |
| W1:140.11 | Him and let Him speak to us five minutes as the day begins and | end the day by listening again five minutes more before we go to |
| W1:155.7 | All roads will lead to this one in the | end. For sacrifice and deprivation are paths which lead nowhere, |
| W1:156.6 | in you steps forward and encompasses the world. It heralds not the | end of sin in punishment and death. In lightness and in laughter is |
| W1:157.7 | the world to which you will return becomes a little closer to the | end of time, a little more like Heaven in its ways, a little nearer |
| W1:158.4 | does not change. The script is written. When experience will come to | end your doubting has been set. For we but see the journey from the |
| W1:165.6 | Now is all doubting past, the journey's | end made certain, and salvation given you. Now is Christ's power in |
| W1:169.11 | final gift salvation can bestow. Experience that grace provides will | end in time, for grace foreshadows Heaven yet does not replace the |
| W1:R5.14 | With this we start each day of our review. With this we start and | end each period of practice time. And with this thought we sleep, to |
| W1:R5.15 | the words but aids and to be used, except at the beginning and the | end of practice periods, but to recall the mind as needed to its |
| W1:182.12 | you have made. And now the way is open, and the journey has an | end in sight at last. Be still a moment and go home with Him, and be |
| W1:190.8 | joys give way before the onslaught of the savage pain that waits to | end all joy in misery. |
| W1:191.12 | again to bless the world he made. In error it began. But it will | end in the reflection of his holiness. And we will sleep no more and |
| W1:193.7 | because the lesson is so simple that it cannot be rejected in the | end. No one can hide forever from a truth so very obvious that it |
| W1:193.9 | and guilt, abandoned, is revered no more. These are the words which | end the dream of sin and rid the mind of fear. These are the words by |
| W1:197.7 | And with the | end of this belief is fear forever over. Thank your Self for this, |
| W1:197.7 | Their will is one. Their gratitude to all They have created has no | end, for gratitude remains a part of love. |
| W1:198.3 | this one must multiply a thousand fold. But this is where illusions | end. Forgiveness is the end of dreams because it is a dream of |
| W1:198.3 | a thousand fold. But this is where illusions end. Forgiveness is the | end of dreams because it is a dream of waking. It is not itself the |
| W1:198.9 | your mind that you may find the key to light and let the darkness | end: |
| W1:198.15 | Today we come still nearer to the | end of everything that yet would stand between this vision and our |
| W1:R6.3 | review, are centered round a central theme with which we start and | end each lesson. It is this: |
| W1:205.1 | The peace of God is my one goal; the aim of all my living here, the | end I seek, my purpose and my function and my life while I abide |
| W2:I.1 | Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set and find the | end toward which our practicing was geared. |
| W2:I.6 | not backward now. We look ahead and fix our eyes upon the journey's | end. Accept these little gifts of thanks from us, as through Christ's |
| W2:I.10 | and let all things be healed. We will accept the way God's plan will | end, as we received the way it started. Now it is complete. This year |
| W2:224.1 | or received. This is reality, and only this. This is illusion's | end. It is the Truth. |
| W2:225.2 | oneness that we seek as we accomplish these few final steps which | end a journey that was not begun. |
| W2:WS.1 | at last. It cannot but be kept. It guarantees that time will have an | end, and all the thoughts that have been born in time will end as |
| W2:WS.1 | have an end, and all the thoughts that have been born in time will | end as well. God's Word is given every mind which thinks that it has |
| W2:232.2 | This is as every day should be. Today practice the | end of fear. Have faith in Him Who is your Father. Trust all things |
| W2:249.1 | and anger makes no sense. Attack is gone, and madness has an | end. What suffering is now conceivable? What loss can be sustained? |
| W2:WIS.3 | is real. Sin “proves” God's Son is evil; timelessness must have an | end; eternal life must die. And God Himself has lost the Son He |
| W2:251.1 | I need only truth. In that, all needs are satisfied, all cravings | end, all hopes are finally fulfilled, and dreams are gone. Now have I |
| W2:WIC.4 | He will exchange them for the final dream which God appointed as the | end of dreams. For when forgiveness rests upon the world and peace |
| W2:279.1 | The | end of dreams is promised me because God's Son is not abandoned by |
| W2:WIHS.1 | before, forgiveness has made possible perception's tranquil | end. |
| W2:WIHS.2 | The goal the Holy Spirit's teaching sets is just this | end of dreams. For sights and sounds must be translated from the |
| W2:WIHS.4 | the memory of all your Father's Love will not return to signify the | end of dreams has come. |
| W2:286.2 | far along it to a wholly certain goal. Today we will not doubt the | end which God Himself has promised us. We trust in Him and in our |
| W2:287.2 | to walk? And what except the memory of You could signify to me the | end of dreams and futile substitutions for the truth? You are my only |
| W2:289.2 | world the past has left untouched and free of sin. Here is the | end of guilt. And here am I made ready for Your final step. Shall I |
| W2:289.2 | longer for Your Son to find the loveliness You planned to be the | end of all his dreams and all his pain? |
| W2:WIRW.4 | certain promise that he is redeemed. The real world signifies the | end of time, for its perception makes time purposeless. |
| W2:292.1 | His. And while we think this will is real, we will not find the | end He has appointed as the outcome of all problems we perceive, all |
| W2:292.2 | thank You, Father, for Your guarantee of only happy outcomes in the | end. Help us not interfere and so delay the happy endings You have |
| W2:298.1 | on my holy sight forgiveness takes away. And I draw near the | end of senseless journeys, mad careers, and artificial values. I |
| W2:WISC.2 | advent, which encompasses all living things with you. There is no | end to the release the Second Coming brings, as God's creation must |
| W2:302.2 | and walks beside us, showing us the way. He fails in nothing. He the | end we seek, and He the means by which we come to Him. |
| W2:317.2 | it would have me do, I choose to do. Your way is certain and the | end secure. The memory of You awaits me there, and all my sorrows end |
| W2:317.2 | end secure. The memory of You awaits me there, and all my sorrows | end in Your embrace, which You have promised to Your Son, who thought |
| W2:318.1 | I am God's Son, His one Eternal Love. I am salvation's means and | end as well. |
| W2:326.1 | as it is in Heaven, so on earth. Your plan I follow here, and at the | end I know that You will gather Your Effects into the tranquil Heaven |
| W2:WIE.1 | limited and separated self, born in a body, doomed to suffer and to | end its life in death. It is the will that sees the Will of God as |
| W2:333.2 | doubt and light the way for our return to You. No light but this can | end our evil dreams. No light but this can save the world. For this |
| W2:342.1 | key is in my hand, and I have reached the door beyond which lies the | end of dreams. I stand before the gate of Heaven, wondering if I |
| W2:343.1 | The | end of suffering cannot be loss. The gift of everything can but be |
| W2:353.1 | joined in purpose. Thus has learning come almost to its appointed | end. A while I work with Him to serve His purpose. Then I lose myself |
| W2:FL.2 | God has given us. It is His way that everyone must travel in the | end, because it is this ending God Himself appointed. In the dream of |
| W2:FL.5 | We will not | end this year without the gift our Father promised to His holy Son. |
| W2:E.1 | This course is a beginning, not an | end. Your Friend goes with you. You are not alone. No one who calls |
| W2:E.4 | as confident as He is of the goal and of your safe arrival in the | end. |
| W2:E.5 | The | end is certain and the means as well. To this we say “Amen.” We will |
| M:1.2 | answer. But it is all a matter of time. Everyone will answer in the | end, but the end can be a long, long way off. It is because of this |
| M:1.2 | it is all a matter of time. Everyone will answer in the end, but the | end can be a long, long way off. It is because of this that the plan |

| M:11.2 | there is no death; your judgment sees but death as the inevitable | end of life. God's Word assures you that He loves the world; your |
| M:13.5 | each time believing it is there and each time disappointed in the | end. “Seek but do not find,” remains this world's stern decree, and |
| M:14.1 | Can what has no beginning really | end? The world will end in an illusion, as it began. Yet will its |
| M:14.1 | Can what has no beginning really end? The world will | end in an illusion, as it began. Yet will its ending be an illusion |
| M:14.2 | turning to Him in silence to receive His Word. The world will | end when all things in it have been rightly judged by His judgment. |
| M:14.2 | in it have been rightly judged by His judgment. The world will | end with the benediction of holiness upon it. When not one thought of |
| M:14.4 | The world will | end when its thought system has been completely reversed. Until then, |
| M:14.5 | The world will | end in joy because it is a place of sorrow. When joy has come, the |
| M:14.5 | When joy has come, the purpose of the world has gone. The world will | end in peace because it is a place of war. When peace has come, what |
| M:14.5 | peace has come, what is the purpose of the world? The world will | end in laughter because it is a place of tears. Where there is |
| M:14.5 | all this to bless the world. In blessing it departs, for it will not | end as it began. To turn hell into Heaven is the function of God's |
| M:15.3 | beyond belief to certainty. One instant out of time can bring time's | end. Judge not, for you but judge yourself and thus delay this Final |
| M:15.4 | guaranteed that His judgment, and His alone, will be accepted in the | end. It is your function to make that end be soon. It is your |
| M:15.4 | alone, will be accepted in the end. It is your function to make that | end be soon. It is your function to hold it to your heart and offer |
| M:20.5 | you do not see—that you made death, and it is but illusion of an | end. Death cannot be escape, because it is not life in which the |
| M:20.5 | you will understand that everything which God created cannot have an | end, and nothing He did not create is real. In this one sentence is |
| M:22.2 | has learned all that his acceptance holds out to him. It is only the | end that is certain. Anywhere along the way, the necessary |
| M:24.5 | however, is that birth was not the beginning and death is not the | end. Yet even this much is not required of the beginner. He need |
| M:27.1 | of life as being born, aging, losing vitality, and dying in the | end? We have asked this question before, but now we need to consider |
| M:27.6 | Without the idea of death, there is no world. All dreams will | end with this one. This is salvation's final goal, the end of all |
| M:27.6 | dreams will end with this one. This is salvation's final goal, the | end of all illusions. And in death are all illusions born. What can |
| M:27.7 | nor wavers nor sinks down to death and dissolution. And what is the | end of death? Nothing but this: the realization that the Son of God |
| M:28.1 | purpose; the acceptance of the Atonement for oneself. It is the | end of dreams of misery and the glad awareness of the Holy Spirit's |
| M:28.4 | There is no death. The Son of God is free. And in his freedom is the | end of fear. No hidden places now remain on earth to shelter sick |

| W1:158.4 | has been set. For we but see the journey from the point at which it | ended, looking back on it, imagining we make it once again; reviewing |
| W1:169.7 | all minds that each one might determine from a point where time has | ended when it is released to revelation and eternity. |

| M:3.2 | of separate interests, if only for a moment. That moment will be | enough. Salvation has come. |
| M:4.24 | single aim at which all learning ultimately converges. It is indeed | enough. |
| M:12.4 | really is; the only use there really is for it. This lesson is | enough to let the thought of unity come in, and what is one is |

| M:16.8 | It is not good enough for God's teacher, because it is not | enough for God's Son. |
| M:21.3 | The sleeping Son of God has but this power left to him. It is | enough. His words do not matter. Only the Word of God has any |

| Tx:31.29 | body thinks no thoughts. It has no power to learn, to pardon, nor | enslave. It gives no orders that the mind need serve nor sets |

| Tx:29.53 | value which you do not have. No one believes in idols who has not | enslaved himself to littleness and loss. And thus must seek beyond |
| W1:132.4 | You have | enslaved the world with all your fears, your doubts and miseries, |
| W1:199.7 | and carry freedom as your gift to those who still believe they are | enslaved within a body. Be you free, so that the Holy Spirit can make |

| Tx:8.109 | The very fact that one has asked the Holy Spirit for anything will | ensure a response. Yet it is equally certain that no response given |
| Tx:11.96 | Guilt, then, is a way of holding past and future in your minds to | ensure the ego's continuity. For if what has been will be punished, |
| Tx:12.26 | You will remember that we said its emphasis on guilt enables it to | ensure its continuity by making the future like the past and thus |
| Tx:12.32 | you will lose sight of the present and hold on to the past to | ensure a destructive future. And time will be as you interpret it, |
| Tx:12.71 | at all upon them. What comes to you of Him comes safely, for He will | ensure it never can become a dark spot, hidden in your mind and kept |
| Tx:15.71 | him. For it is only by attack without forgiveness that the ego can | ensure the guilt which holds all its relationships together. |
| Tx:15.82 | Think but an instant on this: God gave the Sonship to you to | ensure your perfect creation. This was His gift, for as He withheld |
| Tx:26.9 | rotting prison where he sees himself. It is your special function to | ensure the door be opened that he may come forth to shine on you and |

| W1:50.1 | replacements for the Love of God. All these things are cherished to | ensure a body identification. They are songs of praise to the ego. |
| W1:70.5 | Your purpose was to | ensure that healing did not occur; God's purpose was to ensure that |
| W1:70.5 | was to ensure that healing did not occur; God's purpose was to | ensure that it did. Today we practice realizing that God's Will and |
| W1:187.11 | We would not have it be withheld from anything we look upon. And to | ensure this holy sight is ours, we offer it to everything we see. For |
| W1:193.13 | nor one thorn or nail to hurt His sacred Son in any way. He would | ensure his holy rest remain untroubled and serene, without a care in |

| W1:121.1 | Here are all questions answered; here the end of all uncertainty | ensured at last. |

| Tx:31.48 | Here is the central lesson that | ensures your brother is condemned eternally. For what you are has now |
| W1:71.4 | of salvation is acceptable, provided that it will not work. This | ensures that the fruitless search will continue, for the illusion |

| Tx:2.109 | will cannot but continue. The first step toward freedom must | entail a sorting out of the false from the true. This is a process of |
| Tx:16.52 | it? Let us not think of its fearful nature nor of the guilt it must | entail nor of the sadness and the loneliness. For these are only |
| Tx:25.68 | and cannot avoid the vengeance that their own belief in justice must | entail. And so they fear the Holy Spirit and perceive the “wrath” of |
| Tx:25.78 | sin? You cannot answer this until you see all that the answer must | entail. For if you answer “yes,” it means you will forgo all values |
| Tx:27.1 | alone. For sacrifice is total. If it could occur at all, it would | entail the whole of God's creation and the Father with the sacrifice |
| Tx:27.16 | warrant guilt? Sins are beyond forgiveness just because they would | entail effects which cannot be undone and overlooked entirely. In |
| W1:26.3 | the thought that you always attack yourself. If attack thoughts must | entail the belief that you are vulnerable, their effect is to weaken |
| W1:139.1 | question but reflects this one. There is no conflict that does not | entail the single simple question, “What am I?” |
entailed (2) | ||
| Tx:27.42 | in which the mind is still enough to hear an answer which is not | entailed within the question asked. It offers something new and |
| W1:8.2 | think about illusions. Very few minds have realized what is actually | entailed in picturing the past or in anticipating the future. The |
entails (28) | ||
| Tx:1.23 | A. The recognition that darkness cannot hide. This step usually | entails fear. |
| Tx:1.82 | shift from horizontal to vertical perception which the miracle | entails introduces an interval from which the doer and the receiver |
| Tx:2.6 | If you consider carefully what this | entails, the following will become quite apparent: |
| Tx:2.53 | is the result of level confusion in the sense that it always | entails the belief that what is amiss in one level can adversely |
| Tx:2.67 | away from the belief in physical sight. The reason this so often | entails fear is because man is afraid of what his Spiritual eye will |
| Tx:2.78 | entirely willing to do so. This produces consistent behavior but | entails great strain within the self. |
| Tx:2.94 | unguarded, or they will not be able to help me. Miracle working | entails a full realization of the power of thought and real avoidance |
| Tx:2.97 | and “Effect,” which should also be capitalized, is His Son. This | entails a set of Cause and Effect relationships which are totally |
| Tx:3.8 | cannot be understood. Forgiveness is an empty gesture unless it | entails correction. Without this it is essentially judgmental rather |
| Tx:4.81 | value of right perception lies in the inevitable judgment which it | entails that it is unnecessary. This removes the block entirely. You |
| Tx:6.87 | the first step seems to increase conflict and the second step still | entails it to some extent, this one calls for consistent effort |
| Tx:6.95 | The third step, then, is a statement of what you want to believe and | entails a willingness to relinquish everything else. I told you that |
| Tx:13.64 | learner learns so easily because his thoughts are free. Yet this | entails the recognition that guilt is interference, not salvation, |
| Tx:15.85 | instant. Yet it is needful for you to learn just what this shift | entails, so you will become willing to make it permanent. Given this |
| Tx:17.76 | and far greater than you realize. But to answer truth with faith | entails no strain at all. |
| Tx:18.1 | is to accept instead. If you would but consider exactly what this | entails, you would perceive at once how much at variance this is with |
| Tx:18.59 | If you will consider what this “transportation” really | entails, you will realize that it is a sudden unawareness of the body |
| Tx:19.18 | Sin is not an error, for sin | entails an arrogance which the idea of error lacks. To sin would be |
| Tx:23.41 | still. For no one thinks of murder and escapes the guilt the thought | entails. If the intent is death, what matter the form it takes? |
| Tx:30.87 | can understand, the sacrifice of meaning is undone. All sacrifice | entails the loss of your ability to see relationships among events. |
| Tx:30.90 | they are appearances and cannot have the changelessness reality | entails. The miracle attests salvation from appearances by showing |
| W1:65.1 | The full acceptance of salvation as your only function necessarily | entails two phases: the recognition of salvation as your function and |
| W1:70.3 | be clear to you why the recognition that guilt is in your own mind | entails the realization that salvation is there as well. |
| W1:105.2 | The truly given gift | entails no loss. It is impossible that one can gain because another |
| W1:134.1 | for it is apt to be distorted and to be perceived as something which | entails an unfair sacrifice of righteous wrath, a gift unjustified |
| W1:154.3 | it to you, giving you the strength to understand it, do what it | entails, and to succeed in everything you do that is related to it. |
| W2:WIE.4 | its hopes, its plans for its salvation, and the cost belief in it | entails. In suffering, the price for faith in it is so immense that |
| M:13.3 | But what a sacrifice—and it is sacrifice indeed—all this | entails! Now has the mind condemned itself to seek without finding, |
entente (1) | ||
| Tx:29.3 | became the treaty you had made with him. You shared a qualified | entente in which a clause of separation was a point on which you both |
enter (153) | ||
| Tx:1.26 | have become willing to hide nothing, you will not only be willing to | enter into communion but will also understand peace and joy. Your |
| Tx:4.8 | You believe that if you allow no change to | enter into your ego, your Soul will find peace. This profound |
| Tx:4.18 | His home will stand forever and is ready for you when you choose to | enter it. Of this you can be wholly certain. God is as incapable of |
| Tx:4.50 | Love will | enter immediately into any mind which truly wants it, but it must |
| Tx:4.50 | that your belief in darkness and in hiding is why the light cannot | enter. The Bible gives many references to the immeasurable gifts |
| Tx:4.53 | taken the first step toward preparing your mind for the Holy One to | enter. We will prepare for this together, for once He has come, you |
| Tx:5.21 | are the Kingdom of Heaven, but you have let the belief in darkness | enter your minds, and so you need a new light. The Holy Spirit is the |
| Tx:5.63 | the ego in it, the fact that you have accepted it or allowed it to | enter makes it your reality. This is because the mind, as God created |
| Tx:6.22 | I emphasize this only because I do not want you to allow any fear to | enter into the thought system toward which I am guiding you. I do not |
| Tx:6.82 | the false and teaches you to judge every thought that you allow to | enter your mind in the light of what God put there. Whatever is in |
| Tx:6.92 | vigilant to hold its oneness in your minds because, if you let doubt | enter, you will lose awareness of its wholeness and will be unable to |
| Tx:6.93 | are. This is why vigilance is essential. Doubts about being must not | enter your mind, or you cannot know what you are with certainty. |
| Tx:7.67 | Allowing insanity to | enter your minds means that you have not judged sanity as wholly |
| Tx:8.22 | that he was someone else. And every holy encounter in which you | enter fully will teach you this is not so. |
| Tx:9.14 | keeping it unreal for you. Do not let any belief in its realness | enter your minds at all, or you will also believe that you must undo |
| Tx:10.20 | mind so that He becomes your only Guest. Whenever you ask the ego to | enter, you lessen His welcome. He will remain, but you have allied |
| Tx:10.21 | knowledge back into your minds, and let nothing that will obscure it | enter. The Guest whom God sent you will teach you how to do this if |
| Tx:10.28 | them. Do not be deceived by the dark comforters, and never let them | enter the Mind of God's Son, for they have no place in His temple. |
| Tx:10.29 | to give you the peace that is yours. Give His peace that you may | enter the temple and find it waiting for you. But be holy in the |
| Tx:10.29 | you will not know that you are there. For what is unlike God cannot | enter His Mind because it was not His Thought and therefore does not |
| Tx:10.29 | temple, for He Himself dwells there and abides in peace. You cannot | enter God's Presence with the dark companions beside you, but you |
| Tx:10.29 | Presence with the dark companions beside you, but you also cannot | enter alone. |
| Tx:10.30 | All your brothers must | enter with you, for until you have accepted them, you cannot enter. |
| Tx:10.30 | must enter with you, for until you have accepted them, you cannot | enter. For you cannot understand Wholeness unless you are whole, and |
| Tx:10.35 | and as strong an ego defense as blaming others. You cannot | enter God's Presence if you attack His Son. When His Son lifts his |
| Tx:10.36 | otherwise you will believe that the door is barred and you cannot | enter. The door is not barred, and it is impossible for you to be |
| Tx:10.36 | The door is not barred, and it is impossible for you to be unable to | enter the place where God would have you be. But love yourself with |
| Tx:10.36 | love of Christ, for so does your Father love you. You can refuse to | enter, but you cannot bar the door which Christ holds open. Come unto |
| Tx:11.43 | because they see no need to do so. Before the idea of attack can | enter your mind, you must have perceived yourself as weak. Because |
| Tx:12.15 | made. You are more afraid of God than of the ego, and love cannot | enter where it is not welcome. But hatred can, for it enters of its |
| Tx:12.19 | completely. Healing must be as complete as fear, for love cannot | enter where there is one spot of fear to mar its welcome. |
| Tx:12.63 | in the quiet present and waits for you to leave the past behind and | enter into the world He holds out to you in love. |
| Tx:13.30 | You cannot | enter into real relationships with any of God's Sons unless you love |
| Tx:13.34 | praise, we stand before the gates of Heaven where we will surely | enter in our blamelessness. God loves you. Could I, then, lack faith |
| Tx:13.70 | to darkness because he did not choose to free his brother and | enter light with him. By giving power to nothing, he threw away the |
| Tx:14.28 | will go because the other is seen in the same place. Light cannot | enter darkness when a mind believes in darkness and will not let it |
| Tx:14.30 | you have locked away from Him. Open every door to Him and bid Him | enter the darkness and lighten it away. At your request He enters |
| Tx:14.46 | For the reflection of truth draws everyone to truth, and as they | enter into it, they leave all reflections behind. |
| Tx:15.46 | attempting to use separation to save you. How, then, could guilt not | enter? For separation is the source of guilt, and to appeal to it for |
| Tx:15.66 | It is impossible for the ego to | enter into any relationship without anger, for the ego believes that |
| Tx:15.109 | God offers thanks to the holy host who would receive Him and let Him | enter and abide where He would be. And by your welcome does He |
| Tx:15.109 | with Him, being host to Him Who created them. And by allowing Him to | enter, the remembrance of the Father enters with Him, and with Him |
| Tx:16.1 | that healing pain is not accomplished by delusional attempts to | enter into it and lighten it by sharing the delusion. |
| Tx:16.9 | Leave Him His function, for He will fulfill it if you but ask Him to | enter your relationships and bless them for you. |
| Tx:16.32 | is acceptable only as long as he serves this purpose. Hatred can | enter and indeed is welcome in some aspects of the relationship, but |
| Tx:16.43 | a great amount of pain. Anxiety, despair, guilt, and attack all | enter into it, broken into by periods in which they seem to be gone. |
| Tx:16.62 | in. If one such union were made in perfect faith, the universe would | enter into it. Yet the special relationship which the ego seeks does |
| Tx:16.66 | knows what you are. You have allowed the Thought of your reality to | enter your minds, and because you invited it, it will abide with you. |
| Tx:16.66 | love for it will not allow you to betray yourself, and you could not | enter into a relationship where it could not go with you, for you |
| Tx:16.69 | thoughts wander to a special relationship which still attracts you, | enter with Him into a holy instant and there let Him release you. He |
| Tx:16.70 | past disappointments, perceived injustices, and deprivations all | enter into the special relationship, which becomes a way in which you |
| Tx:16.81 | with You in which there are no illusions and where none can ever | enter. Our holiness is Yours. What can there be in us that needs |
| Tx:17.15 | could hear them. They offer you the “reasons” why you should | enter into unholy alliances which support the ego's goals and make |
| Tx:17.16 | always speak for vengeance, and all relationships into which they | enter are totally insane. Without exception, these relationships have |
| Tx:17.17 | move toward further fragmentation and unreality. The shadow figures | enter more and more, and the one in whom they seem to be decreases in |
| Tx:17.18 | and to be questioned almost at once. Once it is formed, doubt must | enter in because its purpose is impossible. The only such |
| Tx:17.19 | thus becomes one in which the reality of the other does not | enter at all to “spoil” the dream. And the less the other really |
| Tx:17.26 | My holy brothers, I would | enter into all your relationships and step between you and your |
| Tx:17.26 | in which such dreams are cherished have excluded me. Let me | enter in the Name of God and bring you peace that you may offer peace |
| Tx:17.45 | wastes no time in introducing the practical results of asking Him to | enter. At once His goal replaces yours. This is accomplished very |
| Tx:17.63 | the illusion of peace is not the condition in which the truth can | enter. |
| Tx:17.68 | else, and you are faithless. Use not your faithlessness. Let it | enter and look upon it calmly, but do not use it. Faithlessness is |
| Tx:17.72 | Enter each situation with the faith that you give to each other, or | |
| Tx:17.72 | goal He placed there was extended to every situation in which you | enter or will ever enter. And every situation was thus made free of |
| Tx:17.72 | was extended to every situation in which you enter or will ever | enter. And every situation was thus made free of the past, which |
| Tx:17.75 | Not even faith is asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it | enter, and it will call forth and secure for you the faith you need |
| Tx:18.9 | a perfect love. Here is holy ground in which no substitution can | enter and where only the truth about each other can abide. Here you |
| Tx:18.24 | deeper. Your goal was darkness in which no ray of light could | enter. And you sought a blackness so complete that you could hide |
| Tx:18.33 | not enough. But trust implicitly your willingness, whatever else may | enter. Concentrate only on this and be not disturbed that shadows |
| Tx:18.34 | His dwelling-place unworthy of Him. And if you believe He cannot | enter where He wills to be, you must be interfering with His Will. |
| Tx:18.55 | of God that you have made. And neither God nor His most holy Son can | enter an abode which harbors hate and where you have sown the seeds |
| Tx:18.72 | the whole, proclaiming that within it is your kingdom, where God can | enter not. |
| Tx:18.78 | little! Should it not, then, be there that you would call on love to | enter? Look at the desert, dry and unproductive, scorched and |
| Tx:18.79 | you welcome will bring love with him from Heaven for you. They | enter one by one into this holy place, but they will not depart as |
| Tx:18.80 | shining upon it. The holy instant is your invitation to love, to | enter into your bleak and joyless kingdom, and to transform it into a |
| Tx:19.15 | make of it. For faith brings peace, and so it calls on truth to | enter and make lovely what has already been prepared for loveliness. |
| Tx:19.38 | your relationship. Would you not now return His graciousness and | enter into a relationship with Him? For it is He Who offered your |
| Tx:19.71 | the body, which is the invitation to pain. For it invites fear to | enter and become your purpose. The attraction of guilt must enter |
| Tx:19.71 | fear to enter and become your purpose. The attraction of guilt must | enter with it, and whatever fear directs the body to do is therefore |
| Tx:19.87 | the wholly innocent? What can attack the guiltless? What fear can | enter and disturb the peace of sinlessness? What has been given you, |
| Tx:20.25 | untouched and perfect, and with him beside you, you shall this day | enter with him to Paradise and know the peace of God. |
| Tx:20.29 | has no place in Heaven, where its results are alien and can no more | enter than can their source. And therein lies your need to see your |
| Tx:20.33 | of another world goes with them. Each holy relationship must | enter here to learn its special function in the Holy Spirit's plan, |
| Tx:20.33 | And as this purpose is fulfilled, a new world rises in which sin can | enter not, and where the Son of God can enter without fear, and where |
| Tx:20.33 | world rises in which sin can enter not, and where the Son of God can | enter without fear, and where he rests a while to forget imprisonment |
| Tx:20.33 | a while to forget imprisonment and to remember freedom. How can he | enter, to rest and to remember, without you? Except you be there, he |
| Tx:20.34 | alone. For the whole new world rests in the hands of every two who | enter here to rest. And as they rest, the face of Christ shines on |

| Tx:23.43 | nothing. It is complete for everyone. Let the idea of compromise but | enter, and the awareness of salvation's purpose is lost because it is |
| Tx:24.1 | not necessary to tell Him what to do. He will not fail. Where He can | enter, there He is already. And can it be He cannot enter where He |

| Tx:28.36 | in which abundance falters and grows thin. Here can the lean years | enter not, for time waits not upon this feast, which has no end. For |

| Tx:29.67 | because that is the purpose which it has. Only forgiving dreams can | enter here, for time is almost over. And the forms which enter in the |
| Tx:29.67 | dreams can enter here, for time is almost over. And the forms which | enter in the dream are now perceived as brothers, not in judgment but |
| Tx:30.94 | really is. Let no temptation to prefer a dream allow uncertainty to | enter here. Be not made guilty and afraid when you are tempted by a |
| Tx:31.59 | which would stand the light, then is the truth left free to | enter in its sanctuary, clean and free of guilt. There is no |
| W1:41.5 | of turning inward, past all the idle thoughts of the world. Try to | enter very deeply into your own mind, keeping it clear of any |
| W1:50.4 | a blanket of protection and surety. Let no idle and foolish thoughts | enter to disturb the holy mind of the Son of God. Such is the Kingdom |

| W1:99.9 | Then let the thought with which He has replaced all your mistakes | enter the darkened places of your mind which thought the thoughts |

| W1:181.5 | beliefs, and what we will believe will not intrude upon us now. We | enter in the time of practicing with one intent—to look upon the |
| W1:190.9 | at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and of fear. Let no attack | enter with you. Lay down the cruel sword of judgment that you hold |
| W1:193.4 | the hate to love, so that the fear is gone. And now guilt cannot | enter, for its source has been excluded as the purpose of the lesson |
| W1:199.2 | and power to do whatever it is asked. Attack thoughts cannot | enter such a mind because it has been given to the Source of Love. |
| W1:199.2 | because it has been given to the Source of Love. And fear can never | enter in a mind that has attached itself to Love. It rests in God, |
| W2:I.1 | to the times in which we leave the world of pain and go to | enter peace. Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set and |
| W2:228.2 | realize the Source from Which I came. I have not left that Source to | enter in a body and to die. My holiness remains a part of me, as I am |
| W2:WIW.2 | absence? Thus the world was meant to be a place where God could | enter not and where His Son could be apart from Him. Here was |
| W2:266.2 | This day we | enter into paradise, calling upon God's name and on our own, |
| W2:274.1 | Through this I am redeemed. Through this as well the truth will | enter where illusions were, light will replace all darkness, and Your |

| W2:WIM.2 | the law of truth the world does not obey because it fails | entirely to understand its ways. A miracle inverts perception which |
| M:2.2 | was established and completed simultaneously, for the Will of God is | entirely apart from time. So is all reality, being of Him. The |
| M:4.5 | light? He is not yet at a point at which he can make the shift | entirely internally. And so the plan will sometimes call for changes |
| M:4.7 | engender enormous conflict. Few teachers of God escape this distress | entirely. There is, however, no point in sorting out the valuable |

| Tx:6.29 | inclusion. Perceiving equality, the Holy Spirit perceives | equal needs. This invites Atonement automatically, because Atonement |
| Tx:6.57 | does know more than you do now, but He teaches only to make you | equal with Him. This is because you had already taught wrongly, |
| Tx:6.64 | believing it, because it is a belief in perfect equality. Only one | equal gift can be offered to the equal Sons of God, and that is full |
| Tx:6.64 | in perfect equality. Only one equal gift can be offered to the | equal Sons of God, and that is full appreciation. Nothing more and |
| Tx:7.28 | Because God's | equal Sons have everything, they cannot compete. Yet if they perceive |
| Tx:7.92 | the Soul's own fullness, rendering its creations equally whole and | equal in perfection. The ego cannot prevail against a totality which |
| Tx:8.32 | through the dominion of one will over another. God's Sons are | equal in will, all being the Will of their Father. This is the only |
| Tx:10.65 | Son is the work of the redemption, in which everyone has a part of | equal value. God does not judge His blameless Son. Having given |
| Tx:10.68 | no order of difficulty in miracles because all of God's Sons are of | equal value, and their equality is their oneness. The whole power of |
| Tx:11.43 | as weakened. No longer perceiving yourself and all your brothers as | equal and regarding yourself as weaker, you attempt to “equalize” the |
| Tx:13.6 | They are all the same; all beautiful and | equal in their holiness. And He will offer them unto His Father as |
| Tx:13.81 | How gracious is it to decide all things through Him Whose | equal love is given equally to all alike! He leaves you no one |
| Tx:14.27 | from the other, their separation seems to keep them both alive and | equal in their reality. Their joining thus becomes the source of |
| Tx:14.51 | the power of God in you. That is the reason why the miracle gives | equal blessing to all who share in it, and that is also why everyone |
| Tx:15.42 | to oppose it. For the holy instant is given and received with | equal willingness, being the acceptance of the single will that |
| Tx:18.46 | and so it must be that whatever threatens the peace of one is an | equal threat to the other. The power of joining and its blessing lie |
| Tx:19.6 | be healed, and not the mind. For this divided goal has given both an | equal reality, which could be possible only if the mind is limited to |
| Tx:19.14 | with its calm sight, which brings the miracle of healing with | equal ease to all of them. For what the messengers of love are sent |
| Tx:20.57 | and it has meaning. It is as like your real relationship with God as | equal things are like unto each other. Idolatry is past and |
| Tx:21.31 | him and placing it in his freedom instead. It is impossible to place | equal faith in opposite directions. What faith you give to sin you |

| Tx:25.76 | to give another must be an injustice to them both, since they are | equal in the Holy Spirit's sight. Their Father gave the same |
| Tx:25.85 | Unless you think that all your brothers have an | equal right to miracles with you, you will not claim your right to |
| Tx:25.85 | not claim your right to them because you were unjust to one with | equal rights. Seek to deny, and you will feel denied. Seek to |
| Tx:26.51 | them no reality. Not one is true in any way, and all must yield with | equal ease to what God gave as answer to them all. God's Will is One. |
| Tx:27.19 | How just are miracles! For they bestow an | equal gift of full deliverance from guilt upon your brother and |
| Tx:29.25 | but some illusions? They are dreams because they are not true. Their | equal lack of truth becomes the basis for the miracle, which means |
| Tx:31.21 | Because he is your | equal in God's love, you will be saved from all appearances and |

| Tx:1.82 | In the longitudinal or horizontal plane, the recognition of the true | equality of all the members of the Sonship appears to involve almost |

| Tx:4.34 | attack it; it merely cannot conceive of it at all. While the ego is | equally unaware of the Soul, it does perceive itself as rejected by |
| Tx:5.2 | of the Sonship the healing is done. Every part benefits and benefits | equally. |
| Tx:5.91 | in miracles. He has not learned that every mind God created is | equally worthy of being healed because God created it whole. You are |
| Tx:6.1 | way responsible. Given these three wholly irrational premises, the | equally irrational conclusion that a brother is worthy of attack |
| Tx:7.47 | thinks he is giving something to them and is not receiving something | equally desirable in return. His teaching is limited, because he is |
| Tx:7.54 | entirely, it is not relinquished at all. Fear and love are | equally reciprocal. They make or create, depending on whether the ego |
| Tx:7.92 | is therefore the Soul's own fullness, rendering its creations | equally whole and equal in perfection. The ego cannot prevail against |
| Tx:7.101 | it may seem that this is necessary, it obviously is. The reason is | equally obvious. What is joyful to you is painful to the ego and, as |
| Tx:7.111 | as your brother is to accept your own inheritance. God gives only | equally. If you recognize His gift in anyone else, you have |
| Tx:8.33 | to Him, which He will share with all His creations, to whom He gives | equally whatever is acceptable to Him. Because it is acceptable to |

| Tx:12.29 | perception of time is the exact opposite of the ego's. The reason is | equally clear, for they perceive the goal of time as diametrically |
| Tx:13.30 | relationships with any of God's Sons unless you love them all and | equally. Love is not special. If you single out part of the Sonship |
| Tx:13.81 | is it to decide all things through Him Whose equal love is given | equally to all alike! He leaves you no one outside yourself, alone |
| Tx:14.33 | stands to God without His Son. And nothing brought there that is not | equally worthy of both but will be replaced by gifts wholly |
| Tx:15.54 | God loves as He loves you—neither less nor more. He needs them all | equally, and so do you. In time you have been told to offer miracles |
| Tx:15.56 | at the expense of another and not suffer guilt. And it is | equally impossible to condemn part of a relationship and find peace |
| Tx:15.62 | you will recognize the only need the aspects of the Son of God share | equally, and by this recognition you will join with me in offering |
| Tx:16.13 | and joined with it. When two minds join as one and share one idea | equally, the first link in the awareness of the Sonship as one has |
| Tx:16.23 | to teach successfully wholly without conviction, and it is | equally impossible that conviction be outside of you. You could never |
| Tx:18.10 | would never accept something else instead of you. He loves you both, | equally and as one. And as He loves you, so you are. You are not |
| Tx:18.46 | necessary or even possible. Yet just as this is impossible, so is it | equally impossible that the holy instant come to either of you |

| Tx:23.41 | do not always recognize the source of pain. Attack in any form is | equally destructive. Its purpose does not change. Its sole intent is |
| Tx:25.22 | what never has been separate nor apart from all God's love as given | equally. |
| Tx:25.55 | mad to sinners who believe theirs is the way to sanity. But sin is | equally insane within the sight of love, whose gentle eyes would look |

| Tx:25.87 | when it is offered to everyone alike. It is received and given | equally. It is awareness that giving and receiving are the same. |
| Tx:26.15 | and by your giving it can He ensure that everyone receives it | equally. |

| Tx:1.95 | effective quite apart from either the degree or the direction of the | error. This is its true indiscriminateness. |
| Tx:1.96 | would hardly be useful if it were bound by the laws which govern the | error it aims to correct. Only man makes this kind of mistake. It is |

| Tx:2.34 | understood from this section is that you can defend truth as well as | error and, in fact, much better. |

| Tx:3.22 | Those who represent the lamb as blood-stained, an all-too-widespread | error, do not understand the meaning of the symbol. Correctly |

| Tx:4.4 | they are given up by an act of will. Do not make the pathetic human | error of “clinging to the old rugged cross.” The only message of the |
| Tx:4.39 | Confusing realms of discourse is a thinking | error which philosophers have recognized for centuries. Psychologists |
| Tx:5.49 | in terms of feelings, which led to a decision not to repeat the | error, which is only part of healing. Your concept lacked the idea of |
| Tx:5.94 | guilt. If you allow yourself to feel guilty, you will reinforce the | error rather than allow it to be undone for you. |
| Tx:5.95 | part is merely to return your thinking to the point at which the | error was made and give it over to the Atonement in peace. Say to |
| Tx:6.45 | not regard itself as part of you. Herein lies its primary perceptual | error, the foundation of its whole thought system. |
| Tx:7.13 | “of one person” and not of others. “Interpersonal” has a similar | error in that it refers to something that exists among different or |
| Tx:8.84 | fear with love. The Holy Spirit cannot distinguish among degrees of | error, for if He taught that one form of sickness is more serious |
| Tx:8.84 | sickness is more serious than another, He would be teaching that one | error can be more real than another. His function is to distinguish |
| Tx:9.2 | foolishly because he needs correction at another level, since his | error is at another level. He is still right, because he is a Son of |
| Tx:9.9 | is for you alone. To forgive is to overlook. Look, then, beyond | error, and do not let your perception rest upon it, for you will |
| Tx:9.10 | errors, or you would not make them. It would merely be further | error to think either that you do not make them or that you can |
| Tx:9.12 | to which the ego always leads you. The ego's plan is to have you see | error clearly first and then overlook it. Yet how can you overlook |
| Tx:9.14 | Forgiveness through the Holy Spirit lies simply in looking beyond | error from the beginning and thus keeping it unreal for you. Do not |
| Tx:9.14 | has no effect does not exist, and to the Holy Spirit, the effects of | error are totally non-existent. By steadily and consistently |
| Tx:10.39 | to look beyond it since you have made it real. We will undo this | error quietly together and then look beyond it to truth. |
| Tx:10.54 | to be, the exact opposite of the Holy Spirit's. The ego focuses on | error and overlooks truth. It makes real every mistake it perceives, |
| Tx:10.54 | inconsistency must be true if truth has meaning. Holding | error clearly in mind and protecting what it has made real, the ego |
| Tx:10.54 | real, the ego proceeds to the next step in its thought system—that | error is real, and truth is error. |
| Tx:10.54 | next step in its thought system—that error is real, and truth is | error. |
| Tx:11.1 | You have been told not to make | error real, and the way to do this is very simple. If you want to |
| Tx:11.1 | and the way to do this is very simple. If you want to believe in | error, you would have to make it real because it is not true. But |
| Tx:11.1 | respond as if he had actually done so, because you have made his | error real to you. To interpret error is to give it power, and having |
| Tx:11.1 | done so, because you have made his error real to you. To interpret | error is to give it power, and having done this, you will overlook |
| Tx:11.13 | Thus does the Holy Spirit replace fear with love and translate | error into truth. And thus will you learn of Him how to replace your |
| Tx:11.25 | You, then, are making the same mistake that he is and are making his | error real to both of you. Insistence means investment, and what you |
| Tx:11.84 | easily translated into knowledge, for only perception is capable of | error, and perception has never been. Being corrected, it gives place |
| Tx:12.45 | can rise to meet your sight, for all reality leaves no room for any | error. This means that you perceive a brother only as you see him |
| Tx:13.80 | are reflections of what God knows about you, and in this light, | error of any kind becomes impossible. Why would you struggle so |
| Tx:14.39 | Bringing the ego to God is but to bring | error to truth, where it stands corrected because it is the opposite |
| Tx:14.45 | The response of holiness to any form of | error is always the same. There is no contradiction in what holiness |
| Tx:17.66 | solve anything. And it is their intrusion on the relationship, an | error in your thoughts about the situation, which then becomes the |

| Tx:18.5 | from what you see. You do not realize the magnitude of that one | error. It was so vast and so completely incredible that from it a |
| Tx:18.5 | you have seen begins to show you the enormity of the original | error, which seemed to cast you out of Heaven, to shatter knowledge |
| Tx:18.6 | That was the first projection of | error outward. The world arose to hide it and became the screen on |
| Tx:18.6 | afraid of it. When you seem to see some twisted form of the original | error rise to frighten you, say only, “God is not fear, but love,” |
| Tx:18.7 | you. You but believe it is the other way; that truth is outside and | error and guilt within. Your little senseless substitutions, touched |
| Tx:18.9 | joined in God, as much together as you are with Him. The original | error has not entered here, nor ever will. Here is the radiant truth |

| Tx:19.17 | and it is this distinction which makes salvation possible. For | error can be corrected, and the wrong made right. But sin, were it |
| Tx:19.17 | not part of it can give it absolution. Sin calls for punishment as | error for correction, and the belief that punishment is correction is |

| Tx:19.21 | Any attempt to reinterpret sin as | error is always indefensible to the ego. The idea of sin is wholly |
| Tx:19.25 | The attraction of guilt is found in sin, not | error. Sin will be repeated because of this attraction. Fear can |
| Tx:19.26 | For what you think is real you want and will not let it go. An | error, on the other hand, is not attractive. What you see clearly as |
| Tx:19.27 | then you will but change the form of sin, granting that it was an | error but keeping it uncorrectable. This is not really a change in |
| Tx:19.27 | in your perception, for it is sin that calls for punishment, not | error. The Holy Spirit cannot punish sin. Mistakes He recognizes and |
| Tx:19.29 | Yet from the plane, the line seems discontinuous. And this is but an | error in perception which can be easily corrected in the mind, |
| Tx:19.30 | differently and see beyond it, but not while you believe in sin. In | error, yes; for this can be corrected by the mind. But sin is the |
| Tx:19.70 | retaliative attack on what you think has failed you? Use not your | error as the justification for your faithlessness. You have not |
| Tx:20.60 | and not the means. Remember this, for otherwise you will make the | error of believing the means are difficult. Yet how can they be |
| Tx:20.61 | invested with attributes of Christ or of the ego. Either must be an | error, for both would place the attributes where they cannot be. And |
| Tx:21.59 | you will not give it, thus maintaining the belief. For uncorrected | error of any kind deceives you about the power that is in you to make |
| Tx:22.1 | by each to be within himself. And each one seems to make a different | error, and one the other cannot understand. Brothers, it is the same, |
| Tx:22.30 | was uncorrectable can be corrected, and thus it must have been an | error. The ego's opposition to correction leads to its fixed belief |
| Tx:22.31 | to pass it. Yet reason sees through it easily because it is an | error. The form it takes cannot conceal its emptiness from reason's |
| Tx:22.32 | Only the form of | error attracts the ego. Meaning it does not recognize and does not |
| Tx:22.32 | or not. Everything which the body's eyes can see is a mistake, an | error in perception, a distorted fragment of the whole, without the |
| Tx:22.32 | yet mistakes, regardless of their form, can be corrected. Sin is but | error in a special form the ego venerates. It would preserve all |
| Tx:22.33 | Reason will tell you that the form of | error is not what makes it a mistake. If what the form conceals is a |
| Tx:22.33 | see beyond what they were made to see. And they were made to look on | error and not see past it. Theirs is indeed a strange perception, for |
| Tx:22.55 | Before a holy relationship there is no sin. The form of | error is no longer seen, and reason, joined with love, looks quietly |
| Tx:22.55 | the same Atonement you accepted in your relationship corrects the | error and lays a part of Heaven in its place. How blessed are you who |
| Tx:22.57 | have looked upon each other with complete forgiveness from which no | error is excluded and nothing kept hidden what mistake can there be |
| Tx:22.60 | attackers more powerful than you. Let us look straight at how this | error came about, for here lies buried the heavy anchor that seems to |
| Tx:23.3 | the strength of love because they looked on innocence. And every | error disappeared because they saw it not. Who looks for glory finds |
| Tx:23.9 | chosen home, which you believe is yours. You meet at a mistake—an | error in your self-appraisal. The ego joins with an illusion of |
| Tx:23.22 | and not correction. For the destruction of the one who makes the | error places him beyond correction and beyond forgiveness. What he |
| Tx:24.26 | clings to one illusion can see himself as sinless, for he holds one | error to himself as lovely still. And so he calls it “unforgivable” |
| Tx:25.9 | your mind, so that the aim of specialness can be corrected where the | error lies. Because His purpose still is one with both the Father and |
| Tx:25.26 | form adapted to the need the Son of God believes he has. Corrected | error is the error's end. And thus has God protected still His Son, |
| Tx:25.26 | the error's end. And thus has God protected still His Son, even in | error. There is another purpose in the world that error made because |
| Tx:25.26 | His Son, even in error. There is another purpose in the world that | error made because it has another Maker Who can reconcile its goal |
| Tx:25.27 | be, and you agree, then must the Maker of the world correct your | error, lest you remain in darkness where the lamps are not. Everyone |
| Tx:25.30 | sin has been corrected by His sight. And thus it must have been an | error, not a sin. For what it claimed could never be has been. Sin is |
| Tx:25.30 | and so preserved. But to forgive it is to change its state from | error into truth. |
| Tx:25.80 | what is unfair must be corrected because it is unfair. And every | error is a perception in which one at least is seen unfairly. Thus is |
| Tx:26.11 | worked out so no one loses, is the problem gone, because it was an | error in perception which now has been corrected. One mistake is not |
| Tx:26.13 | The miracle of justice can correct all errors. Every problem is an | error. It does injustice to the Son of God and therefore is not true. |
| Tx:26.40 | instead of live. And will you not forgive him now because he made an | error in the past that God remembers not and is not there? Now you |
| Tx:26.52 | Sin is not | error, for it goes beyond correction to impossibility. Yet the belief |
| Tx:26.58 | about your will and what you really are? Let us consider what the | error is, so it can be corrected, not protected. |
| Tx:26.59 | ideas can leave their source made real and meaningful. And from this | error does the world of sin and sacrifice arise. This world is an |
| Tx:26.70 | is made yours and its effects will come to you. In this form is the | error still obscured that is the source of fear. Salvation would wipe |
| Tx:27.25 | split between the two. And what you would correct is only half the | error, which you think is all of it. Your brother's sins become the |
| Tx:27.85 | the cause and looks not to effects. How else could He correct your | error, who have overlooked the cause entirely? He bids you bring each |

| Tx:30.74 | there be some sin which stands beyond forgiveness. There would be an | error that is more than a mistake—a special form of error which |
| Tx:30.74 | would be an error that is more than a mistake—a special form of | error which remains unchangeable, eternal, and beyond correction or |

| Tx:21.41 | The Holy Spirit will never teach you that you are sinful. | Errors He will correct, but this makes no one fearful. You are indeed |
| Tx:21.59 | Reason cannot see sin but can see | errors and leads to their correction. It does not value them, but |
| Tx:21.65 | instant. And any instant serves to bring complete correction of his | errors and make him whole. The instant that you choose to let |
| Tx:22.30 | course. Share this belief, and reason will be unable to see your | errors and make way for their correction. For reason sees through |
| Tx:22.30 | errors and make way for their correction. For reason sees through | errors, telling you what you thought was real is not. Reason can see |
| Tx:22.30 | to correction leads to its fixed belief in sin and disregard of | errors. It looks on nothing that can be corrected. Thus does the ego |
| Tx:22.32 | but error in a special form the ego venerates. It would preserve all | errors and make them sins. For here is its own stability, its heavy |

| Tx:23.22 | This principle, closely related to the first, is the demand that | errors call for punishment and not correction. For the destruction of |
| Tx:24.56 | Your brother's holiness is sacrament and benediction unto you. His | errors cannot withhold God's blessing from himself nor you who see |
| Tx:25.28 | him joy. How can a misperception be a sin? Let all your brother's | errors be to you nothing except a chance for you to see the workings |
| Tx:25.78 | What can it be but arrogance to think your little | errors cannot be undone by Heaven's justice? And what could this mean |

| Tx:26.13 | The miracle of justice can correct all | errors. Every problem is an error. It does injustice to the Son of |

| Tx:9.42 | regard yourself as inadequate. Would you look to the ego to help you | escape from a sense of inadequacy it has produced and must maintain |
| Tx:9.42 | it has produced and must maintain for its existence? Can you | escape from its evaluation of you by using its methods for keeping |
| Tx:9.59 | you. You can violate God's laws in your imagination, but you cannot | escape from them. They were established for your protection and are |
| Tx:9.96 | If you were, what you have made would be true, and you could never | escape. |
| Tx:10.39 | No one can | escape from illusions unless he looks at them, for not looking is the |
| Tx:11.9 | equally applicable to you. For to recognize fear is not enough to | escape from it, although the recognition is necessary to demonstrate |
| Tx:11.9 | although the recognition is necessary to demonstrate the need for | escape. The Holy Spirit must still translate it into truth. If you |
| Tx:11.20 | awoke for you. In my resurrection is your release. Our mission is to | escape crucifixion, not redemption. Trust in my help, for I did not |
| Tx:11.47 | hardly turn to them to establish the curriculum by which they can | escape from their limitations. If they understood what is beyond |
| Tx:11.85 | the mind being judged, believing that by punishing another, it will | escape punishment. All this is but the delusional attempt of the mind |
| Tx:11.85 | this is but the delusional attempt of the mind to deny itself and | escape the penalty of denial. It is not an attempt to relinquish |
| Tx:11.93 | his guiltlessness, and he has found it. For everyone is seeking to | escape from the prison he has made, and the way to find release is |
| Tx:11.99 | is the result of attack. In the ego's teaching, then, there is no | escape from guilt. For attack makes guilt real, and if it is real, |
| Tx:12.28 | The shadowy figures from the past are precisely what you must | escape. For they are not real and have no hold over you unless you |
| Tx:13.12 | you bring its condemnation of yourself, and you will not | escape the punishment it offers those who obey it. The ego rewards |
| Tx:13.35 | that both opponents in the war are real. Believing this, he must | escape, for such a war would surely end his peace of mind and so |
| Tx:13.36 | “enemy,” which he made, is totally unreal. You are but trying to | escape a bitter war from which you have escaped. The war is gone. For |
| Tx:13.53 | and dismisses it. But you, who cannot undo what you have made [nor | escape the heavy burden of its dullness that lies upon your minds], |
| Tx:13.65 | that guilt and guiltlessness are both of value, each representing an | escape from what the other does not offer you. You do not want either |
| Tx:13.66 | There is no compromise that you can make with guilt and | escape the pain which only guiltlessness allays. Learning is living |
| Tx:13.75 | that you are worthy of everything God wills for you. Do not try to | escape the gift of God which He so freely and so gladly offers you. |
| Tx:13.77 | you would be saved from. The Holy Spirit knows that all salvation is | escape from guilt. You have no other “enemy,” and against this |
| Tx:13.89 | to fulfill your function in God's Mind with all of yours. Can you | escape this guilt by failing to fulfill your function here? You need |
| Tx:14.60 | Atonement teaches you how to | escape forever from everything that you have taught yourselves in the |
| Tx:15.7 | for it would have its worshipers still believe that it can offer the | escape from it. But the belief in guilt must lead to the belief in |
| Tx:15.8 | fear by which the ego would make the present useless. There is no | escape from fear in the ego's use of time. For time, according to its |
| Tx:15.14 | the crystal cleanness of the release you give is your instantaneous | escape from guilt. You must be holy if you offer holiness. How long |
| Tx:15.24 | it is only by finding your function and fulfilling it that you can | escape from littleness. |
| Tx:15.81 | are forever in a relationship so holy that it calls to everyone to | escape from loneliness and join you in your love. And where you are |
| Tx:16.33 | die of it. This is the choice they see. And love to them is only an | escape from death. They seek it desperately but not in the peace in |
| Tx:16.35 | illusion is one of fear, whatever form it takes. And the attempt to | escape from one illusion into another must fail. If you seek love |
| Tx:16.57 | learning that would hurt you, God offers you correction and complete | escape from all its consequences. The decision whether or not to |
| Tx:16.65 | now more than before only because you realize it is delay and that | escape from pain is really possible. Find hope and comfort rather |
| Tx:16.72 | destruction. For the ego holds the past against you, and in your | escape from the past, it sees itself deprived of the vengeance it |
| Tx:16.74 | for it. And vengeance becomes your substitute for Atonement, and the | escape from vengeance becomes your loss. |
| Tx:17.5 | truth to teach that the illusions are unreal and thus enable you to | escape from them. Reserve not one idea aside from truth, or you |
| Tx:17.49 | to which your former goal was quite appropriate. You can | escape from your distress only by getting rid of each other. You need |
| Tx:18.17 | “I want it thus!” And thus it seems to be. And yet the dream cannot | escape its origin. Anger and fear pervade it, and in an instant, the |
| Tx:18.38 | that is asked. Remember you made guilt and that your plan for the | escape from guilt has been to bring Atonement to it and make |
| Tx:18.55 | this prison you have made and would destroy it. But you would not | escape from it, leaving it unharmed, without your guilt upon it. |
| Tx:18.56 | Yet only thus can you | escape. The home of vengeance is not yours; the place you set aside |
| Tx:18.58 | experienced in special relationships. It is a sense of actual | escape from limitations. |
| Tx:18.61 | There is no violence at all in this | escape. The body is not attacked, but simply properly perceived. It |
| Tx:18.69 | and open door through which you slip past centuries of effort and | escape from time. This is the way in which sin loses all attraction |
| Tx:19.23 | no mistake. For this is its reality; this is the “truth” from which | escape will always be impossible. This is his past, his present, and |
| Tx:19.53 | charity, no tiny expression of forgiveness, no little breath of love | escape their notice. And they will return with all the happy things |
| Tx:19.75 | one but must believe that yielding to the attraction of guilt is the | escape from pain. Not one but must regard the body as himself, |
| Tx:19.78 | hear him laugh at death. The sentence sin would lay upon him he can | escape through your forgiveness. |
| Tx:20.51 | you tremble with them. Yet what you fear is but the herald of | escape. This place of darkness is not your home. Your temple is not |
| Tx:20.66 | sinless?” And as you ask, forget not that his sinlessness is your | escape from fear. Salvation is the Holy Spirit's goal. The means is |
| Tx:21.14 | need do for vision, happiness, release from pain, and the complete | escape from sin, all to be given you. Say only this, but mean it with |
| Tx:21.66 | how to leave insanity behind. Hide not behind insanity in order to | escape from reason. What madness would conceal, the Holy Spirit still |
| Tx:22.17 | of misery? To leave one kind of misery and seek another is hardly an | escape. To change illusions is to make no change. The search for joy |
| Tx:22.19 | Reason will tell you that the only way to | escape from misery is to recognize it and go the other way. Truth is |
| Tx:22.20 | no guilt in anyone. And if this vision is the only means by which | escape from guilt can be attained, then the belief in sin must be |
| Tx:22.20 | be so if the idea is like its source. Therefore, says reason, if | escape from guilt was given to the Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by |
| Tx:22.22 | false and cannot be but partially believed. And you will either | escape from misery entirely or not at all. Reason will tell you that |
| Tx:23.26 | There can be no release and no | escape. Atonement thus becomes a myth, and vengeance, not |
| Tx:23.26 | it to overcome His Son. Think not the ego will enable you to find | escape from what it wants. That is the function of this course, which |
| Tx:23.46 | Mistake not truce for peace, nor compromise for the | escape from conflict. To be released from conflict means that it is |
| Tx:24.41 | to be; however much it delicately offers the hope of peace and the | escape from pain—in which you suffer not your condemnation. In |
| Tx:24.52 | For you will use the world for what is not its purpose and will not | escape its laws of violence and death. Yet it is given you to be |
| Tx:24.53 | the truth in him, for not one law of death you bind him to will you | escape. And not one sin you see in him but keeps you both in hell. |
| Tx:24.71 | yourself with no provisions made for evidence beyond itself and no | escape within its sight. Its course is sure when seen through its own |
| Tx:25.22 | and him. To each of you is given the power of salvation that | escape from darkness into light be yours to share; that you may see |
| Tx:25.58 | him and whatever hope he has of being sane. Nor is he left without | escape from madness, for he has a special part in everyone's escape. |
| Tx:25.58 | without escape from madness, for he has a special part in everyone's | escape. He can no more be left outside without a special function in |
| Tx:25.69 | except a devil dressed to deceive within an angel's cloak? And what | escape has He for them except a door to hell that seems to look like |
| Tx:26.44 | has come to you. For no one can make one illusion real and still | escape the rest. For who can choose to keep the ones which he prefers |
| Tx:26.61 | God's Son could never be content with less than full salvation and | escape from guilt. For otherwise he still demands that he must make |
| Tx:27.1 | a crown of thorns from which your brother and yourself will not | escape. You cannot crucify yourself alone. And if you are unfairly |
| Tx:27.2 | not to make yourself a living symbol of his guilt, for you will not | escape the death you made for him. But in his innocence, you find |
| Tx:27.4 | he forget the injuries he gave from which you swear he never will | escape. This sick and sorry picture you accept, if only it can serve |
| Tx:27.39 | true? Which ones establish peace and offer joy? And which can bring | escape from all the pain of which this world is made?” Whatever form |
| Tx:27.62 | apparent still, for it is he who bears the suffering. And he cannot | escape because its source is seen outside himself. |
| Tx:27.63 | Now you are being shown you can | escape. All that is needed is you look upon the problem as it is, and |
| Tx:27.65 | There is indeed a need. The world's | escape from condemnation is a need which those within the world are |
| Tx:27.67 | part you play in salvaging the world from condemnation is your own | escape. Forget not that the witness to the world of evil cannot speak |
| Tx:27.81 | How willing are you to | escape effects of all the dreams the world has ever had? Is it your |
| Tx:29.1 | and leave a gap between you and His love through which you can | escape if there be need for you to flee. |
| Tx:29.12 | the hope of peace upon a battleground. It has been futile to demand | escape from sin and pain of what was made to serve the function of |
| Tx:29.25 | which means that you have understood that dreams are dreams and that | escape depends not on the dream, but only on awaking. Could it be |
| Tx:29.63 | to God's Son, and it is justice that who judges him will not | escape the penalty he laid upon himself within the dream he made. God |
| Tx:29.65 | him for his treachery to them. He thinks he needs them that he may | escape his thoughts, because he thinks the thoughts are real. And so |
| Tx:30.57 | the world is seen to be forgiveness. Fear is not its goal, and the | escape from guilt becomes its aim. The value of forgiveness is |
| Tx:30.70 | Anger is never justified. Attack has no foundation. It is here | escape from fear begins and will be made complete. Here is the real |
| Tx:30.74 | error which remains unchangeable, eternal, and beyond correction or | escape. There would be one mistake which had the power to undo |
| Tx:30.75 | be limited. And you have set a goal of partial pardon and a limited | escape from guilt for you. What can this be except a false |
| Tx:30.76 | from healing, one illusion must be part of truth. And you could not | escape all guilt, but only some of it. You must forgive God's Son |
| Tx:30.76 | that is not whole and will remain afraid to look within and find | escape from every idol there. Salvation rests on faith there cannot |
| Tx:30.78 | God's Son. Nor will you know him if you think he does not merit the | escape from guilt in all its forms and all its consequence. There is |
| Tx:30.86 | Escape from judgment simply lies in this—all things have but one | |
| Tx:31.33 | There is a tendency to think the world can offer consolation and | escape from problems which its purpose is to keep. Why should this |
| Tx:31.33 | which concern you not. Yet they are your concern. How then can you | escape from them by leaving them behind? What must go with you, you |
| Tx:31.34 | and death. There is no choice in its alternatives. Seek not | escape from problems here. The world was made that problems could not |
| Tx:31.42 | journeys and all goal-less aims. They have no meaning. You can not | escape from what you are. For God is merciful and did not let His Son |
| Tx:31.42 | Son abandon Him. For what He is, be thankful, for in that is your | escape from madness and from death. Nowhere but where He is can you |
| Tx:31.47 | of the world are safely kept and those who walk on them will not | escape. |
| Tx:31.56 | riddle of himself. Salvation can be seen as nothing more than the | escape from concepts. It does not concern itself with content of the |
| Tx:31.62 | or Spirit in your own belief. If you choose flesh, you never will | escape the body as your own reality, for you have chosen that you |
| Tx:31.83 | the holy Son of God he is a body, born in what must die, unable to | escape its frailty and bound by what it orders him to feel. It sets |
| Tx:31.87 | made a faulty choice before, you now can make a better one and thus | escape all pain which what you chose before has brought to you. In |
| W1:21.3 | Try, therefore, not to let the “little” thoughts of anger | escape you in the practice periods. Remember that you do not really |
| W1:22.2 | It is from this savage fantasy that you want to | escape. Is it not joyous news to hear that it is not real? Is it not |
| W1:22.2 | it is not real? Is it not a happy discovery to find that you can | escape? You made what you would destroy—everything that you hate |
| W1:23.4 | as the image-maker. You cannot be saved from the world, but you can | escape from its cause. This is what salvation means, for where is the |
| W1:23.7 | I can | escape from the world by giving up attack thoughts about _____. |
| W1:31.2 | your eyes and apply the same idea to your inner world. You will | escape from both together, for the inner is the cause of the outer. |
| W1:44.6 | to remind yourself from time to time that to reach light is to | escape from darkness, whatever you may believe to the contrary. God |
| W1:53.4 | this belief and place my trust in reality. In choosing this, I will | escape all the effects of the world of fear because I am |
| W1:55.4 | [23] I can | escape from the world by giving up attack thoughts. Herein lies my |
| W1:64.4 | awaits your forgiveness, because through it does the Son of God | escape from all illusions and thus from all temptation. The Son of |
| W1:65.2 | understand and accept what today's idea really means. It offers you | escape from all your perceived difficulties. It places the key to the |
| W1:71.7 | How can you | escape all this? Very simply. The idea for today is the answer. Only |
| W1:72.6 | In fact, if the body were real, it would be difficult indeed to | escape this conclusion. And every grievance that you hold insists |
| W1:91.5 | and your will has all the strength to do what it desires. You can | escape the body if you choose. You can experience the strength in you. |
| W1:97.12 | Use them against temptation, and | escape its sorry consequences if you yield to the belief that you are |
| W1:99.2 | It reflects the truth because it is the means by which you can | escape illusions. Yet it is not truth because it undoes what was |
| W1:101.2 | in some form which evens the account they owe to God. They would | escape Him in their fear. And yet He will pursue, and they cannot |
| W1:101.2 | escape Him in their fear. And yet He will pursue, and they cannot | escape. |
| W1:101.10 | Today | escape from madness. You are set on freedom's road, and now today's |
| W1:110.2 | is. It is enough to let time be the means for all the world to learn | escape from time and every change that time appears to bring in |
| W1:121.4 | it were dead. It wants forgiveness, yet it sees no hope. It wants | escape, yet can conceive of none because it sees the sinful |
| W1:121.9 | as one, we will extend the lesson to yourself and see that their | escape included yours. |
| W1:126.5 | undeserved reprieve. Yet it remains your right to let the sinner not | escape the justified repayment for his sin. Think you the Lord of |
| W1:127.7 | is no better use for time than this. For 15 minutes twice today | escape from every law in which you now believe. Open your mind and |
| W1:128.3 | Escape today the chains you place upon your mind when you perceive | |
| W1:128.7 | the world will shift by just a little every time you let your mind | escape its chains. The world is not where it belongs. And you belong |
| W1:132.3 | be lifted and release the future from your ancient fears, you find | escape and give it to the world. |
| W1:134.5 | Pardon is no | escape in such a view. It merely is a further sign that sin is |
| W1:134.11 | he thought he saw was never there. And now he cannot feel that all | escape has been denied to him. |
| W1:134.18 | of relief. The time remaining should be given to experiencing the | escape from all the heavy chains you sought to lay upon your brother |
| W1:136.4 | Who but yourself evaluates a threat, decides | escape is necessary, and sets up a series of defenses to reduce the |
| W1:138.3 | Choice is the obvious | escape from what appears as opposites. Decision lets one of |
| W1:153.2 | within. The mind is now confused and knows not where to turn to find | escape from its imaginings. |
| W1:153.3 | wherein another circle bound it, and another in that one, until | escape no longer can be hoped for nor obtained. Attack, defense; |
| W1:153.11 | Nor will you learn that light has come to you, and your | escape has been accomplished. For you will not see the light until |
| W1:153.14 | of all his hopes, his pitiful defense against a vengeance he cannot | escape, were but his own deluded fantasy. God's ministers have come |
| W1:161.16 | Today's idea is your safe | escape from anger and from fear. Be sure you use it instantly, should |
| W1:162.5 | as remedy for grief and misery, all sense of loss, and for complete | escape from sin and guilt? |
| W1:170.6 | safety and protector of your peace, to which you turn for solace and | escape from doubts about your strength and hope of rest in dreamless |
| W1:170.10 | Yet do not think that fear is the | escape from fear. Let us remember what the course has stressed about |
| W1:183.10 | a state in which you will experience the gifts of grace. You can | escape all bondage of the world and give the world the same release |
| W1:184.15 | give in place of every one of them. Your Name is our salvation and | escape from what we made. Your Name unites us in the Oneness which is |
| W1:185.4 | it takes the form of union, but only the form. The meaning must | escape the dream, for compromising is the goal of dreaming. Minds |
| W1:191.3 | Deny your own Identity, and you will not | escape the madness which induced this weird, unnatural, and ghostly |
| W1:191.5 | thoughts that hold it prisoner. And from this place of safety and | escape, you will return and set it free. For he who can accept his |
| W1:192.8 | bound together with his prisoner. He must be sure that he does not | escape, and so he spends his time in keeping watch on him. The bars |
| W1:195.2 | steps which He directs and follow in the way He sets before them to | escape a prison that they thought contained no door to the |
| W1:195.5 | but in sincerity. And let your gratitude make room for all who will | escape with you—the sick, the weak, the needy and afraid, and those |
| W1:196.5 | The dreary, hopeless thought that you can make attacks on others and | escape yourself has nailed you to the cross. Perhaps it seemed to be |
| W1:196.6 | that this, at least, must be entirely impossible, how could there be | escape? The fear of God is real to anyone who thinks this thought is |
| W1:196.10 | is an instant in which terror seems to grip your mind so wholly that | escape appears quite hopeless. When you realize once and for all that |
| W1:199.7 | a body. Be you free, so that the Holy Spirit can make use of your | escape from bondage to set free the many who perceive themselves as |
| W1:200.5 | change your mind about the purpose of the world if you would find | escape. You will be bound till all the world is seen by you as |
| W1:200.6 | it is needed and where it must serve a mighty function. Is not the | escape of God's beloved Son from evil dreams that he imagines, yet |
| W2:WIB.4 | returns to sanity. Though it was made to fence him into hell without | escape, yet has the goal of Heaven been exchanged for the pursuit of |
| W2:289.1 | Unless the past is over in my mind, the real world must | escape my sight. For I am really looking nowhere, seeing but what is |
| W2:293.2 | Father, let not Your holy world | escape my sight today. Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns of |
| W2:296.1 | I made. For having damned it, I would set it free that I may find | escape and hear the Word Your holy Voice will speak to me today. |
| W2:298.2 | way. And I am grateful for Your holy gifts of certain sanctuary and | escape from everything that would obscure my love for God, my Father, |
| W2:330.1 | cannot suffer. Let us choose today that He be our Identity and thus | escape forever from all things the dream of fear appears to offer us. |
| W2:357.1 | truth's reflection, tells me how to offer miracles and thus | escape the prison house in which I think I live. Your holy Son is |
| W2:FL.1 | in all its ways, and treacherous beyond the hope of trust and the | escape from pain. |
| M:I.4 | This is inevitable. There is no | escape from it. How could it be otherwise? Everyone who follows the |
| M:4.7 | desirable, it will engender enormous conflict. Few teachers of God | escape this distress entirely. There is, however, no point in sorting |
| M:13.3 | and discontented, to know not what it really wants to find. Who can | escape this self-condemnation? Only through God's Word could this be |
| M:15.1 | Indeed yes! No one can | escape God's Final Judgment. Who could flee forever from the truth? |
| M:17.8 | bring the light of hope from God Himself. There is a way in which | escape is possible. It can be learned and taught, but it requires |
| M:17.9 | the anger certain witness that you do believe in it as fact. Now is | escape impossible until you see you have responded to your own |
| M:18.1 | “proved,” both to his pupil and himself, that it is their task to | escape from what is real. And this can only be impossible. Reality is |
| M:20.5 | Living is joy, but death can only weep. You see in death | escape from what you made. But this you do not see—that you made |
| M:20.5 | you made death, and it is but illusion of an end. Death cannot be | escape, because it is not life in which the problem lies. Life has no |
| M:24.2 | the individual faces now, his task would still be only to | escape from them now. If he is laying the groundwork for a future |
| M:24.6 | still your one responsibility. Atonement might be equated with total | escape from the past and total lack of interest in the future. Heaven |
| M:26.4 | Do not despair, then, because of limitations. It is your function to | escape from them, but not to be without them. If you would be heard |
| M:29.3 | To return the function to the One to Whom it belongs is thus the | escape from fear. And it is this that lets the memory of love return |

| Tx:8.89 | since meaning itself is of God. Yet your return to meaning is | essential to His because your meaning is part of His. Your healing, |
| Tx:9.39 | is because the ego is afraid of the obvious since obviousness is the | essential characteristic of reality. Yet you cannot overlook it |
| Tx:9.53 | level of shift, it is experienced as shifting, and extremes are its | essential characteristic. |

| Tx:19.25 | evil that cannot be corrected and will be forever desirable. As an | essential part of what the ego thinks you are, you will always want |
| Tx:19.71 | to seek for pleasure through the body and not find pain. It is | essential that this relationship be understood, for it is one the ego |
| Tx:22.62 | is one. You would not choose attack on its reality if it were not | essential to attack to see it [separate from its Creator]. And thus |

| Tx:24.69 | perceived. And therefore do we deal with them as if they were. It is | essential it be kept in mind that all perception still is upside down |
| Tx:26.21 | what is the same and what is different remain unclear. The one | essential thing to make a choice at all is this distinction. And |
| W1:3.2 | realize how little you really understand about them. It is therefore | essential that you keep a perfectly open mind, unhampered by |
| W1:9.3 | see, remembering the need for its indiscriminate application and the | essential rule of excluding nothing. For example: |
| W1:13.3 | It is | essential, therefore, that you learn to recognize the meaningless and |
| W1:16.3 | as unimportant, trivial, and not worth bothering about that it is | essential you recognize them all as equally destructive but equally |
| W1:17.8 | As usual, it is | essential to make no distinction between what you believe to be |

| W1:56.3 | of the self-image I have made. If I would remember who I am, it is | essential that I let this image of myself go. As it is replaced by |

| W1:100.4 | You are indeed | essential to God's plan. Just as your light increases every light |

| W1:100.10 | when He Who calls to you is God Himself? He will be there. You are | essential to His plan. You are His messenger today. And you must find |

| Tx:7.24 | does not matter. It is always maximal. Your vigilance does not | establish it as yours, but it does enable you to use it always and in |
| Tx:7.32 | nor control but only understanding. This is because it does not | establish the laws it seeks, cannot discover them through prediction, |
| Tx:7.34 | is of one order. This is God's Will and yours. The laws of God | establish this, and the Holy Spirit reminds you of it. When you heal, |
| Tx:7.113 | Your creations cannot | establish your reality any more than you can establish God's. But you |
| Tx:7.113 | Your creations cannot establish your reality any more than you can | establish God's. But you can know both. Being is known by sharing. |
| Tx:8.80 | learn this as you learn to question the value of the ego and thus | establish your ability to evaluate its questions. When the ego tempts |
| Tx:9.58 | indivisible, your evaluation of yourself must be God's. You did not | establish your value, and it needs no defense. Nothing can attack it |
| Tx:10.51 | yours and is therefore incomplete without it. You can only | establish your autonomy by identifying with Him and fulfilling your |
| Tx:10.53 | that power, understanding, and truth lie in separation, and to | establish this belief it must attack. Unaware that the belief cannot |

| Tx:14.50 | which still remains is held together by a sense of order which you | establish. Yet the very fact that you can do this and bring any order |

| Tx:11.46 | has made itself a poor learner. You tried to make the separation | eternal because you wanted to retain the characteristics of creation |

| Tx:11.76 | looked upon the deathless in yourself, and you will see only the | eternal as you look out upon a world that cannot die. |
| Tx:11.88 | you will see. Yet you will not realize this until you accept the | eternal fact that God's Son is not guilty. He deserves only love |
| Tx:11.93 | be as he was created. Deny your world and judge him not, for his | eternal guiltlessness is in the mind of his Father, and protects him |
| Tx:11.96 | of the appreciation of eternity. You are immortal because you are | eternal and always must be now. Guilt, then, is a way of holding past |
| Tx:11.97 | For God has never condemned His Son, and being guiltless, he is | eternal. |

| Tx:14.10 | is offered for the single purpose of release from guilt to the | eternal glory of God and His creation. And every teaching that points |
| Tx:15.5 | conceive of its own death, it will pursue you still because guilt is | eternal. Such is the ego's version of immortality. And it is this the |
| Tx:15.15 | is no longer time at all. For, caught in the single instant of the | eternal sanctity of God's creation, it is transformed into forever. |
| Tx:15.15 | sanctity of God's creation, it is transformed into forever. Give the | eternal instant that eternity may be remembered for you in that |
| Tx:15.16 | The Atonement is in time but not for time. Being in you, it is | eternal. What holds remembrance of God cannot be bound by time. No |
| Tx:15.17 | of holiness which will remove all fear. For the instant of peace is | eternal because it is wholly without fear. It will come, being the |
| Tx:15.28 | dwell. Touch no one, then, with littleness, in the name of Christ, | eternal Host unto His Father. |
| Tx:15.89 | to be with you forever, you would experience the attraction of the | eternal. No one can hear Him speak of this and long remain willing to |

| Tx:16.55 | up in which the dance of death delights you can bring death to the | eternal. Nor can your chosen substitute for the wholeness of God have |
| Tx:16.76 | from keeping the experience in your mind. Yet the holy instant is | eternal, and your illusions of time will not prevent the timeless |
| Tx:17.20 | If all but loving thoughts has been forgotten, what remains is | eternal. And the transformed past is made like the present. No longer |
| Tx:17.36 | of Heaven, the love of God, the tears of Christ, and the joy of His | eternal Spirit are marshaled to defend you from your own attack. For |

| Tx:19.16 | with it and make it slave to time. For what you think you do to the | eternal you do to you. Whom God created as His Son is slave to |

| Tx:20.24 | which he held out to you? Did you recognize each other as the | eternal gift of God to you? Did you see the holiness that shone in |
| Tx:20.27 | His Son holy and kept him so. In your brother is the light of God's | eternal promise of your immortality. See him as sinless, and there |
| Tx:20.53 | but without its loveliness. Is this the substitute you want for the | eternal blessing of the holy instant and its unlimited beneficence? |
| Tx:21.53 | Therefore, what joined the Will of God must be in you now, being | eternal. You must have set aside a place in which the Holy Spirit can |
| Tx:22.18 | No form of misery in reason's eyes can be confused with joy. Joy is | eternal. You can be sure indeed that any seeming happiness that does |
| Tx:22.18 | does not last is really fear. Joy does not turn to sorrow, for the | eternal cannot change. But sorrow can be turned to joy, for time |
| Tx:22.18 | change. But sorrow can be turned to joy, for time gives way to the | eternal. Only the timeless must remain unchanged, but everything in |
| Tx:22.20 | escape from guilt can be attained, then the belief in sin must be | eternal. Yet reason looks on this another way, for reason sees the |
| Tx:22.55 | you. And every empty place in Heaven that you fill again with the | Eternal Light you bring shines now on you. The means of sinlessness |
| Tx:22.56 | loves. And what you bring is your remembrance of everything that is | eternal. No trace of anything in time can long remain in minds that |
| Tx:23.7 | there is conflict, for a mind at war against itself remembers not | eternal gentleness. The means of war are not the means of peace, and |
| Tx:23.24 | directly to the third preposterous belief that seems to make chaos | eternal. For if God cannot be mistaken, then He must accept his Son's |
| Tx:23.37 | impossible, and beyond all reason, and yet perceived as an | eternal barrier to Heaven. Illusions are but forms. Their content is |
| Tx:24.25 | death of specialness is not your death but your awaking into life | eternal. You but emerge from an illusion of what you are to the |
| Tx:25.55 | Each sees a world immutable, as each defines the changeless and | eternal truth of what you are. And each reflects a view of what the |
| Tx:25.61 | sanity restored. And on this single rock of truth can faith in God's | eternal saneness rest in perfect confidence and perfect peace. Reason |

| Tx:28.14 | generate a different past or future. Its effects are changelessly | eternal, beyond fear, and past the world of sin entirely. |
| Tx:29.1 | The compromise the least and littlest gap would represent in His | eternal love is quite impossible. For it would mean His love could |
| Tx:29.1 | a hint of hate; His gentleness turn sometimes to attack; and His | eternal patience sometimes fail. All this do you believe, when you |

| Tx:29.32 | love you offer him but brings you nearer to your wakening to peace | eternal and to endless joy. |
| Tx:29.37 | is found. Let us be glad indeed that this is so and seek not the | eternal in this world. Forgiving dreams are means to step aside from |

| Tx:29.39 | and fade will not return. Where time has set an end is not where the | eternal is. God's Son can never change by what men made of him. He |
| Tx:29.40 | goal unlike God's purpose for you and establish it as changeless and | eternal. You can give yourself a purpose that you do not have. But |
| Tx:29.40 | Change is the greatest gift God gave to all that you would make | eternal, to ensure that only Heaven would not pass away. |

| W1:45.8 | unreal thoughts that cover the truth in your mind, and reach to the | eternal. |
| W1:49.4 | and sick imaginings that cover your real thoughts and obscure your | eternal link with God. Sink deep into the peace that waits for you |

| W1:50.3 | will fail you. Put all your faith in the Love of God within you, | eternal, changeless and forever unfailing. This is the answer to |
| W1:87.5 | I am afraid, and only when I try to attack can I believe that my | eternal safety is threatened. Today I will recognize that all this |

| W1:93.6 | by God. Nothing can touch it nor can change what God created as | eternal. The self you made, evil and full of sin, is meaningless. |
| W1:93.7 | mistakes you made, the truth about you is unchanged. Creation is | eternal and unalterable. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. You |
| W1:104.8 | His Will is done already and that joy and peace belong to us as His | eternal gifts. We will not let ourselves lose sight of them between |
| W1:124.3 | What we receive is our | eternal gift to those who follow after and to those who went before |

| W1:188.3 | with it which remains forever and forever. What it gives must be | eternal. It removes all thoughts of the ephemeral and valueless. It |
| W1:190.2 | what is wholly unassailable. It is a nightmare of abandonment by an | eternal Love which could not leave the Son whom It created out of |

| W1:193.13 | his holy rest remain untroubled and serene, without a care in an | eternal home which cares for him. And He would have all tears be |
| W1:193.17 | in its course go with it. Thus will you remain unbound, in peace | eternal in the world of time. This is the lesson God would have you |
| W1:197.5 | God must be His own. Yet you will never realize His gifts are sure, | eternal, changeless, limitless, forever giving out, extending love, |

| W2:WIS.3 | real. Sin “proves” God's Son is evil; timelessness must have an end; | eternal life must die. And God Himself has lost the Son He loves, |
| W2:WIB.2 | murderer? And if he did not die, what “proof” is there that God's | eternal Son can be destroyed? |
| W2:263.1 | with which You blessed creation—all its purity, its joy, and its | eternal, quiet home in You. |
| W2:273.2 | peace You gave Your Son is with me still, in quietness and in my own | eternal love for You. |

| W2:WILJ.4 | in His appointed plan to bless His Son and call him to return to the | eternal peace He shares with him. Be not afraid of love. For it alone |

| W2:331.1 | Conflict is sleep, and peace awakening. Death is illusion; life, | Eternal Truth. There is no opposition to Your Will. There is no |
| W2:334.2 | I seek but the | eternal. For Your Son can be content with nothing less than this. |
| W2:337.1 | My sinlessness ensures me perfect peace, | eternal safety, everlasting love, freedom forever from all thought of |

| Tx:5.36 | is obviously a time idea. Both time and delay are meaningless in | eternity. We have said before that the Holy Spirit is God's Answer to |

| Tx:5.39 | the rightful place of the Sonship [is] God. This is your life, your | eternity, and yourself. It is of this that the Holy Spirit reminds |
| Tx:5.40 | The Holy Spirit counters this welcome by welcoming peace. Peace and | eternity are as closely related as are time and war. Perception as |
| Tx:5.42 | except in His peace. If peace is eternal, you are at home only in | eternity. The ego made the world as it perceives it, but the Holy |
| Tx:5.42 | time and reinterpret it into the timeless. The mind must be led into | eternity through time because, having made time, it is capable of |

| Tx:5.71 | but it is tragic in time. You have elected to be in time rather than | eternity and have therefore changed your belief in your status. Yet |
| Tx:5.71 | free and alterable. You do not belong in time. Your place is only in | eternity, where God Himself placed you forever. |

| Tx:5.82 | moment of time, because it is His special function to return you to | eternity and remain to bless your creations there. He is the only |
| Tx:5.86 | mind. Freud, however, suffered all his life from refusal to allow | eternity to dawn upon his mind and enlighten it truly. As a result, |

| Tx:7.5 | extend yourself as He did. Only joy increases forever, since joy and | eternity are inseparable. God extends outward beyond limits and |

| Tx:9.8 | that is what time is for. God gave you the function to create in | eternity. You do not need to learn this, but you do need to learn to |
| Tx:9.17 | welcome it and do not wait, for the ego's time is borrowed from your | eternity. This is the Second Coming, which was made for you as the |
| Tx:9.36 | Miracles have no place in | eternity because they are reparative. Yet while you still need |
| Tx:9.36 | it. In time, the giving comes first, though they are simultaneous in | eternity, where they cannot be separated. When you have learned that |
| Tx:9.37 | Eternity is one time, its only dimension being “always.” This cannot | |
| Tx:9.59 | make you fearful or loving, because nothing is beyond you. Time and | eternity are both in your mind and will conflict until you perceive |
| Tx:9.59 | will conflict until you perceive time solely as a means to regain | eternity. You cannot do this as long as you believe that anything |
| Tx:9.106 | which is not of God, will remain with you. While this is not true in | eternity, it is true in time, so that while time lasts in your minds, |
| Tx:9.107 | If you would remember | eternity, you must learn to look only on the eternal. If you allow |
| Tx:9.107 | As always, your choice is determined by what you value. Time and | eternity cannot both be real, because they contradict each other. If |
| Tx:9.107 | accept only what is timeless as real, you will begin to understand | eternity and make it yours. |

| Tx:11.91 | Yet consider this: You are not guiltless in time, but in | eternity. You have “sinned” in the past, but there is no past. Always |

| Tx:12.30 | without past or future, that the beginning of the appreciation of | eternity lies. For only now is here, and it presents the |
| Tx:12.31 | regards the function of time as one of extending itself in place of | eternity, for like the Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of |
| Tx:12.68 | need of nothing. In Heaven this is so, for what could you need in | eternity? In your world you do need things because it is a world of |
| Tx:12.76 | its eternal reign where sorrow dwells. You dwell not here, but in | eternity. You travel but in dreams while safe at home. Give thanks to |
| Tx:13.1 | the mind that knows this unequivocally knows also that it dwells in | eternity and utilizes no perception at all. It therefore does not |
| Tx:13.3 | gather them together by crowning them as one with the final gift of | eternity. |
| Tx:13.8 | alone. And suddenly time will be over, and we will all unite in the | eternity of God the Father. The holy light you saw outside yourself |
| Tx:13.44 | fulfilled as surely as the creation will remain unchanged throughout | eternity. You do not have to know that Heaven is yours to make it so. |
| Tx:13.86 | first to His Son. The first in time means nothing, but the First in | eternity is God the Father, Who is both First and One. Beyond the |

| Tx:15.12 | for this instant, He stands ready to give you the remembrance of | eternity. |
| Tx:15.15 | you understands what time is for. Holiness lies not in time but in | eternity. There never was an instant in which God's Son could lose |
| Tx:15.15 | it is transformed into forever. Give the eternal instant that | eternity may be remembered for you in that shining instant of perfect |
| Tx:15.17 | you through the Teacher He has appointed to translate time into | eternity. Blessed is God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to teach God's |
| Tx:15.40 | live forever in the holy instant, beginning now and reaching to | eternity, but for a very simple reason. Do not obscure the simplicity |
| Tx:15.55 | of needs, for there is only one. For the holy instant reaches to | eternity and to the Mind of God. And it is only there love has |
| Tx:15.92 | does stand between them. Neither time nor season means anything in | eternity. But here it is the Holy Spirit's function to use them both, |
| Tx:16.42 | The bridge that He would carry you across lifts you from time into | eternity. Waken from time and answer fearlessly the call of Him Who |
| Tx:16.42 | Waken from time and answer fearlessly the call of Him Who gave | eternity to you in your creation. On this side of the bridge to |
| Tx:17.8 | so small it has escaped your notice, is a stride through time into | eternity and beyond all ugliness into beauty that will enchant you |
| Tx:17.37 | your attention on the picture. The holy instant is a miniature of | eternity. It is a picture of timelessness, set in a frame of time. If |
| Tx:17.37 | gifts, so the whole of Heaven lies in this instant, borrowed from | eternity and set in time for you. |
| Tx:17.40 | The other picture is lightly framed, for time cannot contain | eternity. There is no distraction here. The picture of Heaven and |
| Tx:17.40 | eternity. There is no distraction here. The picture of Heaven and | eternity grows more convincing as you look at it. And now by real |
| Tx:17.51 | Is it not certain that you will remember a goal unchanged throughout | eternity? For you have chosen but the goal of God from which your |
| Tx:19.28 | you do not share His recognition of the difference between time and | eternity. And when correction is completed, time is eternity. |
| Tx:19.28 | between time and eternity. And when correction is completed, time is | eternity. |
| Tx:19.87 | you. The miracle of life is ageless, born in time but nourished in | eternity. Behold this infant to whom you gave a resting-place by your |
| Tx:20.37 | time brought nearer. Each miracle of joining is a mighty herald of | eternity. No one who has a single purpose, unified and sure, can be |
| Tx:20.38 | Each herald of | eternity sings of the end of sin and fear. Each speaks in time of |
| Tx:20.41 | when one would do? There is but one. The little breath of | eternity that runs through time like golden light is all the same— |
| Tx:23.5 | into temptation. His glory is beyond it, measureless and timeless as | eternity. Do not let time intrude upon your sight of him. Leave him |
| Tx:24.51 | about His Son with passing circumstance, which has no meaning in | eternity where He abides and you with Him. Your brother is as He |
| Tx:24.55 | which seems to have no end until the truth be your decision. For | eternity is not regained by still one more denial of Christ in him. |
| Tx:24.67 | This is the state of true creation, found not within time, but in | eternity. To no one here is this describable. Nor is there any way to |
| Tx:25.17 | God creates is safe from all corruption, unchanged and perfect in | eternity. |
| Tx:25.49 | he is safe, as he has always been and will remain in time and in | eternity alike. This is the function given each of you for one |
| Tx:25.65 | where love means hate and death is seen as victory and triumph over | eternity and timelessness and life? |
| Tx:26.31 | time, which in the end is [nothing. It] is but a little hindrance to | eternity, quite meaningless to the real Teacher of the world. Yet |
| Tx:26.32 | Time lasted but an instant in your mind, with no effect upon | eternity. And so is all time passed and everything exactly as it was |
| Tx:26.41 | The shadow voices do not change the laws of time or of | eternity. They come from what is past and gone and hinder not the |

| Tx:27.82 | eternity. It is a joke to think that time can come to circumvent | eternity, which means there is no time. |
| Tx:28.12 | effects. The instant's silence that His Son accepts gives welcome to | eternity and Him and lets Them enter where They would abide. For in |
| Tx:28.13 | image in the way of glad awakening to present peace. The trumpets of | eternity resound throughout the stillness, yet disturb it not. And |
| Tx:28.34 | open door. What is the world except a little gap perceived to tear | eternity apart and break it into days and months and years? And what |
| Tx:29.31 | still. There is a place in you which time has left, and echoes of | eternity are heard. There is a resting place so still no sound except |
| Tx:29.58 | there be a gap in what is infinite, a place where time can interrupt | eternity? A place of darkness set where all is light, a dismal alcove |
| Tx:30.45 | is there. Yet still and white and lovely will it shine through all | eternity. There was no time it was not there; no instant when its |
| Tx:30.60 | itself. Even the real world has a purpose still beneath creation and | eternity. But fear is gone because its purpose is forgiveness, not |

| W1:157.3 | way to alter time sufficiently to rise above its laws and walk into | eternity a while. This you will learn to do increasingly, as every |
| W1:164.1 | in our sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks past time and sees | eternity as represented there. He hears the sounds the senseless busy |

| Tx:5.6 | that, while this kind of thinking is totally alien to having things, | even to the lower mind it is quite comprehensible in connection with |
| Tx:5.12 | God honored | even the miscreations of His Children because they had made them, but |

| Tx:5.41 | to conceal this part, it is still much stronger than the ego, | even though the ego does not recognize it. The Holy Spirit recognizes |
| Tx:5.44 | because it introduces meaning. It is, however, below knowledge | even though it can grow towards it. It is possible, with great |
| Tx:5.50 | act of sharing. That is what is meant when we said it is possible | even in this world to listen to one voice. If you are part of God and |
| Tx:5.65 | that by punishing itself it will mitigate the punishment of God. Yet | even in this it is arrogant. It attributes to God a punishing intent, |

| Tx:6.13 | harmed anyone and had healed many. We are still equal as learners, | even though we need not have equal experiences. The Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:6.35 | make the idea seem so difficult. Yet the Holy Spirit tells you that | even return is unnecessary because what never happened cannot involve |
| Tx:6.39 | That is its natural talent. The word “knows” is correct here, | even though the ego does not know and is not concerned with being at |
| Tx:6.59 | harm so much as what you need to learn to have joy. This is true | even of the world's teachers. Consider the confusion a child would |
| Tx:6.68 | step, and the only one you must take for yourself. It is not | even necessary that you complete the step yourself, but it is |
| Tx:6.70 | teach yourselves wrong. Many thought that I was attacking them, | even though it was quite apparent that I was not. An insane learner |
| Tx:7.1 | said that only in this respect your creative power differs from His. | Even in this world there is a parallel. Parents give birth to |
| Tx:7.12 | will hurt them, which cannot be true. But those who are for freedom, | even if they are misguided in how [they] defend it, are siding with |
| Tx:7.26 | teaching. You must therefore be teaching something else as well, | even though the ego does not know what it is. |
| Tx:7.36 | belief. This perception is therefore in accord with the laws of God, | even in a state of mind which is out of accord with His. The strength |
| Tx:7.99 | further elaboration here, but both are clearly indefensible, | even if you elect to defend them. |
| Tx:7.105 | you by God's decision. That is His Will, and you can not undo it. | Even the relinquishment of your false decision-making prerogative, |
| Tx:8.6 | They cannot choose one because they cannot relinquish the other, | even if the other does not exist. Their conflicted curriculum teaches |
| Tx:8.8 | As a teacher, then, it is totally confused and totally confusing. | Even if you could disregard the Holy Spirit entirely, which is quite |
| Tx:8.26 | which is its illusion. I have told you that I am with you always, | even to the end of the world. That is why I am the light of the |
| Tx:8.48 | themselves or Him. Yet their thought is so powerful that they can | even imprison the mind of God's Son if they so choose. This choice |
| Tx:8.61 | In the world, not | even the body is perceived as whole. Its purpose is seen as |
| Tx:8.66 | of the body as a means of attack of any kind and to entertain | even the possibility that joy could possibly result is a clear-cut |
| Tx:8.78 | you seriously considered the distorting power of something you want, | even if it is not true? You have had many instances of how what you |
| Tx:8.82 | Wholeness heals because it is of the mind. All forms of sickness, | even unto death, are physical expressions of the fear of awakening. |
| Tx:8.85 | to make nothing out of what God created. The ego despises weakness, | even though it makes every effort to induce it. The ego wants only |
| Tx:8.103 | reality, though impossible, can be made into a very persistent goal, | even though you do not want it. But consider the result of this |
| Tx:8.108 | be the case, your attainment of it would no longer be what you want, | even if it is. This accounts for why certain specific forms of |
| Tx:8.108 | accounts for why certain specific forms of healing are not achieved, | even though the state of healing is. It frequently happens that an |
| Tx:9.15 | with it by now. The ego believes that all functions belong to it, | even though it has no idea what they are. This is more than mere |
| Tx:9.24 | It is noteworthy that this is a contradiction | even in the ego's terms, and one which it usually does note, even in |
| Tx:9.24 | even in the ego's terms, and one which it usually does note, | even in its confusion. If the way to counteract fear is to reduce the |
| Tx:9.31 | Him at all? If you inspire joy, and others react to you with joy | even though you are not experiencing joy yourself, there must be |
| Tx:9.34 | God is more than you only because He created you, but not | even this would He keep from you. Therefore you can create as He did, |
| Tx:9.41 | forgets what you are. The ego is deceived by everything you do, | even when you respond to the Holy Spirit, because at such times its |
| Tx:9.51 | of God's grandeur, because His grandeur establishes your freedom. | Even the faintest hint of your reality literally drives the ego from |
| Tx:9.65 | to happen did not happen at all. You do not think this mysterious, | even though all the laws of what you awakened to were violated while |
| Tx:9.68 | are afraid of your dissociation, not of what you have dissociated. | Even in this world's therapy, when dissociated material is accepted, |
| Tx:9.77 | Do not side with sickness in the presence of a Son of God | even if he believes in it, for your acceptance of God in him |
| Tx:10.3 | thought system, the darker and more obscure becomes the way. Yet | even the little spark in your mind is enough to lighten it. Bring |
| Tx:10.13 | capable of this? Your will is His Life, which He has given to you. | Even in time you cannot live apart from Him, for sleep is not death. |
| Tx:10.27 | God hides nothing from His Son, | even though His Son would hide himself. Yet the Son of God cannot |
| Tx:10.45 | lies. The ego sees all dependency as threatening and has twisted | even your longing for God into a means of establishing itself. But do |
| Tx:10.48 | distant, emotionally shallow, callous, uninvolved, and | even desperate, but not really afraid. Minimizing fear but not its |
| Tx:10.75 | the bad, the false and the true. For as Heaven and earth become one, | even the real world will vanish from your sight. The end of the world |
| Tx:11.28 | Never lose sight of this, and never allow yourself to believe | even for an instant that there is another answer. For you will surely |
| Tx:11.29 | self-hate, making him afraid of himself. He does not realize this. | Even if he is fully aware of anxiety, he does not perceive its source |
| Tx:11.33 | You were willing to accept | even death to deny your Father. Yet He would not have it so, and so |
| Tx:11.50 | learning and succeed, for that is your will. But you do not realize | even yet that there is something you do will to learn, and that you |
| Tx:11.81 | relinquished the insane desire to control reality. You who cannot | even control yourselves should hardly aspire to control the universe. |
| Tx:12.3 | you have betrayed God's Son by condemning him to death. You do not | even suspect this murderous but insane idea lies hidden there, for |
| Tx:12.8 | the release from guilt, and this is correct if it is understood. Yet | even when I have interpreted it for you, you have rejected it and |
| Tx:12.11 | You could look | even upon the ego's darkest cornerstone without fear if you did not |
| Tx:12.11 | without the ego, you would find within yourself something you fear | even more. You are not afraid of crucifixion. Your real terror is of |
| Tx:12.12 | nothing compared to your fear of love. You would be willing to look | even upon your savage wish to kill God's Son if you did not believe |
| Tx:12.25 | circumstances, would it not be more desirable to have been wrong, | even apart from the fact that you were wrong? While it could perhaps |
| Tx:12.25 | there was life, no one would claim that it proves there is life. | Even the past life which death might indicate could only have been |
| Tx:12.25 | this. You could heal and be healed if you did question it. And | even though you know not Heaven, might it not be more desirable than |
| Tx:12.42 | not return unto the Father until He has extended your perception | even unto Him. And there perception is no more, for He has returned |
| Tx:12.57 | and have been faithful in your giving, for you were not alone. | Even in sleep has Christ protected you, ensuring the real world for |
| Tx:12.61 | it not dear, for it is old and tired and ready to return to dust | even as you made it. This aching world has not the power to touch the |
| Tx:12.62 | Yet the real world has the power to touch you | even here because you love it. And what you call with love will come |

| Tx:13.2 | you is all knowledge. Perception at its loftiest is never complete. | Even the perception of the Holy Spirit, as perfect as perception can |
| Tx:13.4 | and that is why Christ's vision looks on everything with love. Yet | even Christ's vision is not His reality. The golden aspects of |
| Tx:13.5 | must come into the darkened world to make Christ's vision possible | even here. Help Him to give His gift of light to all who think they |

| Tx:13.34 | we shine with brightness so intense that none of us alone can | even think on it. Before the glorious radiance of the Kingdom, guilt |
| Tx:13.35 | Forgetfulness and sleep and | even death become the ego's best advice for how to deal with the |
| Tx:13.37 | sense of peace so deep that no dream in this world has ever brought | even a dim imagining of what it is. |
| Tx:13.43 | you. Salvation is as sure as God. His certainty suffices. Learn that | even the darkest nightmare that disturbed the Mind of God's sleeping |
| Tx:13.68 | Each day, each hour and minute, | even every second, you are deciding between the crucifixion and the |
| Tx:13.86 | you have acknowledged. Yet truth is offered first to be received, | even as God gave it first to His Son. The first in time means |
| Tx:14.2 | felt, apart from Him, that resembles it ever so faintly. You cannot | even give a blessing in perfect gentleness. Would you know of One Who |
| Tx:14.21 | of language is communication, how can this tongue mean anything? Yet | even this strange and twisted effort to communicate through not |
| Tx:14.48 | You have experienced lack of competition among your thoughts, which, | even though they may conflict, can occur to you together and in great |
| Tx:14.59 | lesson so unthinkable that only the insane, in deepest sleep, could | even dream of it. Can God learn how not to be God? And can His Son, |
| Tx:14.63 | are wholly free of fear of any kind, and if all those who meet or | even think of you share in your perfect peace, then you can be sure |
| Tx:15.3 | beyond the grave. And out of its unwillingness for you to find peace | even in the death it wants for you, it offers you immortality in |
| Tx:15.6 | ego teaches that Heaven is here and now because the future is hell. | Even when it attacks so savagely that it tries to take the life of |
| Tx:15.6 | who hears it temporarily as the only voice, it speaks of hell | even to him. For it tells him hell is here and bids him leap from |
| Tx:15.6 | anyone to look upon with some amount of equanimity is the past. And | even there its only value is that it is no more. |
| Tx:15.18 | Himself to encompass you. You who have spent days, hours, and | even years in chaining your brothers to your egos in an attempt to |
| Tx:15.34 | before His holy altar, which rises above the stars and reaches | even to Heaven because of what is given it. |
| Tx:15.51 | ego's use of relationships is so fragmented that it frequently goes | even further—one part of one aspect suits its purposes, while it |
| Tx:15.77 | in real relationship, so holy and so strong that it can overcome | even this without fear. It is through the holy instant that what |
| Tx:15.107 | condition of love by teaching that communication remains unbroken, | even if the body is destroyed, provided that you see not the body as |
| Tx:16.14 | is true. But can you really believe that all that has happened, | even though you do not understand it, has not happened? Yet this is |
| Tx:16.23 | And yet, this Self you clearly do not know and do not recognize It | even though It functions. What functions must be there. And it is |
| Tx:16.44 | often quite open. Here they are usually judged to be acceptable and | even natural. No one considers it bizarre to love and hate together, |

| Tx:16.47 | completion lies in triumph and in the extension of the “victory” | even to the final triumph over God. In this it sees the ultimate |
| Tx:16.54 | and love has lost its meaning. Would you want this to be possible, | even apart from its evident impossibility? For if it were possible, |
| Tx:16.62 | Yet the special relationship which the ego seeks does not include | even one whole individual. For the ego wants but part of him and sees |
| Tx:16.65 | and comfort rather than despair in this: You could no longer find | even the illusion of love in any special relationship here. For you |
| Tx:16.74 | does not seem to be an acting out of vengeance which you seek. And | even when the hatred and the savagery break briefly through into |
| Tx:17.7 | that made your heart seem to sing with joy has ever brought you | even a little part of the happiness this sight will bring you. For |
| Tx:17.11 | of your lack of reason is suddenly released to loveliness. Not | even what the Son of God made in insanity could be without a hidden |
| Tx:17.12 | home. And there he knows that he has always rested there in peace. | Even salvation will become a dream and vanish from his mind. For |
| Tx:17.17 | which union is attempted but the bodies of those who are not there. | Even the body of the other, already a severely limited perception of |
| Tx:17.19 | it becomes. Thus, the attempt at union becomes a way of excluding | even the one with whom the union was sought. For it was formed to get |
| Tx:17.29 | You have made very real relationships | even in this world which you do not recognize simply because you have |
| Tx:17.45 | but it makes the relationship seem disturbed, disjunctive, and | even quite distressing. The reason is quite clear. For the |
| Tx:17.47 | are inevitably appalled. Their perception of the relationship may | even become quite disorganized. And yet, the former organization of |
| Tx:17.49 | a most explicit statement? Now He asks for faith a little longer, | even in bewilderment. For this will go, and you will see the |
| Tx:17.75 | coming. Let it encompass every situation and bring you peace. Not | even faith is asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it enter, and |
| Tx:18.42 | will build a ladder planted in the solid rock of faith and rising | even to Heaven. Nor will you use it to ascend to Heaven alone. |
| Tx:18.44 | is an undertaking impossible for you to understand. You do not | even realize you have accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose as your own, |
| Tx:18.46 | to deal with it alone. Never believe that this is necessary or | even possible. Yet just as this is impossible, so is it equally |
| Tx:18.60 | anything and anywhere—a sound, a sight, a thought, a memory, and | even a general idea without specific reference. Yet in every case, |
| Tx:18.71 | you identify with externals, something outside itself. You cannot | even think of God without a body or some form you think you recognize. |
| Tx:18.74 | Yet neither sun nor ocean is | even aware of all this strange and meaningless activity. They merely |
| Tx:18.74 | that they are feared and hated by a tiny segment of themselves. | Even that segment is not lost to them, for it could not survive apart |
| Tx:18.94 | Yet | even forgiveness is not the end. Forgiveness does make lovely, but it |
| Tx:19.19 | The Son of God can be mistaken; he can deceive himself; he can | even turn the power of his mind against himself. But he cannot sin. |
| Tx:19.50 | fear would feed upon, love overlooks. What fear demands, love cannot | even see. |
| Tx:19.51 | their master calls upon them to serve him. For fear is merciless | even to its friends. Its messengers steal guiltily away in hungry |
| Tx:19.74 | of attack and guilt will someone other than yourself suffer. And | even if you suffer, yet someone else will suffer more. The great |
| Tx:19.87 | enter and disturb the peace of sinlessness? What has been given you, | even in its infancy, is in full communication with God and you. In |
| Tx:19.90 | and of the universe of universes and of everything that lies | even beyond them would you remember. And as this memory rises in your |
| Tx:19.92 | in secret to the ego never to lift this veil, not to approach it nor | even to suspect that it is there. This is the secret bargain made |
| Tx:19.99 | is not enough. A journey without a purpose is still meaningless, and | even when it is over, it seems to make no sense. How can you know |
| Tx:20.39 | attempt to judge what lies so far beyond your judgment you cannot | even see it? Judge not what is invisible to you or you will never see |
| Tx:20.48 | And its relationships must be unholy, for what they are, it does not | even see. It wants them solely for the offerings on which its idols |
| Tx:20.50 | condemnation. For here is love made fearful and hope abandoned. | Even the idols that are worshiped here are shrouded in mystery and |
| Tx:21.17 | for you. This is the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, and | even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by this gift is given |
| Tx:21.42 | alone. Its rule is tempered, and its unknown “enemy,” Whom it cannot | even see, it fears. Loudly the ego tells you not to look inward, for |
| Tx:21.73 | not there. Yes, it can dream it found an enemy, but this will shift | even as it attacks, so that it runs at once to find another and never |
| Tx:21.73 | treacherous does this enemy appear, who changes so it is impossible | even to recognize him! |
| Tx:21.86 | is a condition quite alien to your understanding. Yet if you could | even imagine what it must be, you would desire it although you |
| Tx:22.40 | Yet it is almost over in your awareness, and peace has reached you | even here before the veil. Think what will happen after! The love of |
| Tx:22.52 | that anyone who chooses this has no idea of what is valuable. Yet | even in this confusion, so profound it cannot be described, the Holy |
| Tx:23.24 | believe; and how He must respond, believing it. It is not seen as | even necessary that He be asked about the truth of what has been |
| Tx:23.52 | darkened and murderous, remember you can see the battle from above. | Even in forms you do not recognize, the signs you know. There is a |
| Tx:24.14 | Specialness is the idea of sin made real. Sin is impossible | even to imagine without this base. For sin arose from it out of |
| Tx:24.29 | by everything that walks and breathes or creeps or crawls or | even lives at all. Nothing is safe from its attack, and it is safe |
| Tx:24.30 | to be brought to them and left behind. Salvation challenges not | even death. And God Himself, Who knows that death is not your will, |
| Tx:24.71 | become the means to serve his “father's” purpose. Not identical, not | even like, but still a means to offer to the “father” what he wants. |
| Tx:24.72 | difference does not lie in how they look, nor where they go, nor | even what they do. They have a different purpose. It is this that |
| Tx:25.26 | error is the error's end. And thus has God protected still His Son, | even in error. There is another purpose in the world that error made |
| Tx:25.33 | effects, believing them to be the bringers of rejoicing and of joy. | Even in Heaven does this law obtain. The Son of God creates to bring |
| Tx:26.44 | give? Who can believe illusions are the same and still maintain that | even one is best? |
| Tx:27.21 | in the sacrifice. How could the Holy Spirit be deterred an instant, | even less, to reason with an argument for sickness such as this? And |
| Tx:27.26 | In this interpretation of correction, your own mistakes you will not | even see. The focus of correction has been placed outside yourself on |
| Tx:27.30 | thought, where half is canceled out by the remaining half. Yet | even this is quickly contradicted by the half it canceled out, and so |
| Tx:27.40 | A pseudo-question has no answer. It dictates the answer | even as it asks. Thus is all questioning within the world a form of |
| Tx:27.72 | between your dreams and your reality. The little gap you do not | even see, the birthplace of illusions and of fear, the time of terror |
| Tx:27.78 | tosses them away for senseless things it does not need and does not | even want. It hires other bodies, that they may protect it, and |
| Tx:29.37 | dreams are shared, they lose the function of attack and separation, | even though it was for this that every dream was made. Yet nothing in |
| Tx:29.42 | body only if you think that it was made to crucify God's Son. For | even though it was a dream of death, you need not let it stand for |
| Tx:29.59 | more of what—more beauty, more intelligence, more wealth, or | even more affliction and more pain. But more of something is an idol |
| Tx:30.15 | 4. If you are so unwilling to receive you cannot | even let your question go, you can begin to change your mind with |
| Tx:30.56 | asks so little, not so much. It asks for nothing in reality. And | even in illusions it but asks forgiveness be the substitute for fear. |
| Tx:30.60 | knows how this can be, for understanding this is Heaven itself. | Even the real world has a purpose still beneath creation and |
| Tx:31.3 | There is no greater power in the world. The world was made by it and | even now depends on nothing else. The lessons you have taught |
| Tx:31.3 | your will is not your own, your thoughts do not belong to you, and | even you are someone else. |
| Tx:31.44 | the aspect acted on. It is this face that smiles and charms and | even seems to love. It searches for companions, and it looks at times |
| Tx:31.51 | what proof there is that you are what your brother made of you. For | even though you do not yet perceive that this is what you think, you |
| Tx:31.52 | That you are what your brother made of you seems most unlikely. | Even if he did, who gave the face of innocence to you? Is this your |
| W1:I.5 | to apply them to what you see. You are not asked to judge them nor | even to believe them. You are asked only to use them. It is their use |
| W1:10.8 | period be extended, and it should be reduced to half a minute or | even less if you experience discomfort. Remember, however, to repeat |
| W1:11.3 | in particular. The words, however, should be used in an unhurried, | even leisurely fashion. The introduction to this idea should be |
| W1:12.2 | markedly longer or shorter, but try, instead, to keep a measured, | even tempo throughout. What you see does not matter. You teach |
| W1:12.9 | today. Nor should the practice periods exceed a minute. You may find | even this too long. Terminate the exercises whenever you experience a |
| W1:13.8 | recognizing. Do not dwell on the concluding statement, and try not | even to think of it except during the exercise periods. That will |
| W1:14.3 | which can truly be called salvation, can be quite difficult and | even quite painful. Some of them will lead you directly into fear. |
| W1:17.9 | recommended and no less than three are required for maximum benefit | even if you experience resistance. However, if you do, the length of |
| W1:18.7 | A minute or so or | even less will be sufficient. |
| W1:19.2 | seems to carry with it an enormous sense of responsibility and may | even be regarded as an “invasion of privacy.” Yet it is a fact that |
| W1:20.1 | time for undertaking them, minimal effort has been required, and not | even active cooperation and interest have been asked. This casual |
| W1:23.4 | can light your images and so transform them that you will love them | even though they were made of hate. For you will not be making them |
| W1:24.7 | as many different kinds of outcome as may honestly occur to you, | even if some of them do not appear to you to be directly related to |
| W1:24.7 | them do not appear to you to be directly related to the situation or | even to be inherent in it at all. |
| W1:27.6 | to it throughout the day. It will not be difficult to do this, | even if you are engaged in conversation or otherwise occupied at the |
| W1:29.2 | this point. You may find it silly, irreverent, senseless, funny, and | even objectionable. Certainly God is not in a table, for example, as |
| W1:30.1 | it what you have never seen before. Nor will what you saw before be | even faintly visible to you. |
| W1:41.7 | easy because it is the most natural thing in the world. You might | even say it is the only natural thing in the world. The way will open |
| W1:41.7 | that it is possible. This exercise can bring very startling results | even the first time it is attempted. And sooner or later, it is |
| W1:44.10 | correctly, you should experience some sense of relaxation and | even a feeling that you are approaching if not actually entering into |
| W1:45.11 | be unable as yet to realize how high you are trying to go. Yet | even with the little understanding you have already gained, you |
| W1:54.4 | seeing. If I have no private thoughts, I cannot see a private world. | Even the mad idea of separation had to be shared before it could form |
| W1:66.4 | happiness. Therefore the function He gave you must be happiness, | even if it appears to be different. Today's exercises are an attempt |
| W1:66.7 | Try to see the logic in this sequence, | even if you do not yet accept the conclusion. It is only if the first |
| W1:67.7 | with false self-images. Four or five times an hour, and perhaps | even more, it would be most beneficial to remind yourself that Love |
| W1:68.5 | will try to find out how you would feel without them. If you succeed | even by ever so little, there will never be a problem in motivation |
| W1:68.6 | the seemingly minor grievances you hold against those you like and | even think you love. It will quickly become apparent that there is no |
| W1:74.12 | There is definite gain in refusing to allow retreat into withdrawal, | even if you do not experience the peace you seek. |
| W1:76.9 | Perhaps you | even think that there are laws which set forth what is God's and what |
| W1:78.5 | the grievances aside and look at him. Someone perhaps you fear and | even hate; someone you think you love who angers you; someone you |
| W1:78.7 | and better points as well, and we will think of his mistakes and | even of his “sins.” |
| W1:79.1 | A problem cannot be solved if you do not know what it is. | Even if it is really solved already, you will still have the problem |
| W1:79.2 | problem has been solved if he thinks the problem is something else? | Even if he is given the answer, he cannot see its relevance. |
| W1:91.2 | light is to perceive darkness. The light is useless to you then, | even though it is there. You cannot use it because its presence is |
| W1:93.12 | You may not be willing or | even able to use the first five minutes of each hour for these |
| W1:107.2 | Try to remember when there was a time—perhaps a minute, maybe | even less—when nothing came to interrupt your peace; when you were |
| W1:108.1 | and mistaken thoughts into one concept which is wholly true? | Even that one will disappear because the Thought behind it will |
| W1:R3.9 | to be done throughout the day are equally important and perhaps of | even greater value. You have been inclined to practice only at |
| W1:129.4 | Yet | even they will be exchanged at last for what we cannot speak of, for |
| W1:133.9 | deceived, for what the ego wants it fails to recognize. It does not | even tell the truth as it perceives it, for it needs to keep the halo |
| W1:136.3 | of the rapidity with which you choose to use them. In that second, | even less, in which the choice is made, you recognize exactly what |
| W1:138.4 | are confronting you when there is really only one to make. And | even this but seems to be a choice. Do not confuse yourself with all |
| W1:151.2 | you through the body's eyes. Nor do you ask why you believe it, | even though you learned a long while since your senses do deceive. |
| W1:151.2 | That you believe them to the last detail which they report is | even stranger when you pause to recollect how frequently they have |
| W1:153.16 | faithful to the will we share with God. At times, perhaps, a minute, | even less, will be the most that we can offer as the hour strikes. |
| W1:153.18 | goes with you. Nor would you keep your mind away from Him a moment, | even though your time is spent in offering salvation to the world. |
| W1:155.2 | and avoid their own reality. Yet when they find their own reality is | even here, then they step back and let it lead the way. What other |
| W1:157.9 | with you, but there will be an instant which transcends all vision, | even this, the holiest. This you will never teach, for you attained |
| W1:163.7 | The idea of the death of God is so preposterous that | even the insane have difficulty in believing it. For it implies that |
| W1:166.4 | not realize he has forgotten where he came from, where he goes, and | even who he really is. |
| W1:166.9 | has touched your shoulder, and you feel that you are not alone. You | even think the miserable self you thought was you may not be your |
| W1:167.2 | not perfect joy. All sorrow, loss, anxiety, and suffering and pain, | even a little sigh of weariness, a slight discomfort or the merest |
| W1:167.10 | in any form today. Nor will we let imagined opposites to life abide | even an instant where the thought of life eternal has been set by God |
| W1:169.6 | We cannot speak nor write nor | even think of this at all. It comes to every mind when total |
| W1:170.7 | out relentlessly to those who ask if the demands are sensible or | even sane. It is their enemies who are unreasonable and insane, while |
| W1:181.4 | also been dismayed by the depressing and restricting thought that, | even if you should succeed, you will inevitably lose your way again. |
| W1:182.11 | without existence. Christ has called you friend and brother. He has | even come to you to ask your help in letting Him go home completed |
| W1:183.1 | turn for their identity. Your Father's Name reminds you who you are, | even within a world that does not know; even though you have not |
| W1:183.1 | reminds you who you are, even within a world that does not know; | even though you have not remembered it. |
| W1:186.14 | here as it is needed. In this form, you can fulfill your function | even here, although what love will mean to you when formlessness has |
| W1:192.3 | Creation cannot | even be conceived of in the world. It has no meaning here. |
| W1:194.3 | upon a throne and worshiped faithfully. In no one instant can one | even die. And so each instant given unto God in passing, with the |
| W1:194.3 | given Him already, is a time of your release from sadness, pain and | even death itself. |
| W1:195.2 | suffering replaced with laughter and with happiness. Nor could the | even partly sane refuse to take the steps which He directs and follow |
| W1:195.8 | see that everything has earned the right to love by being loving, | even as your Self. |
| W1:196.6 | this thought is true. And he will not perceive its foolishness nor | even see that it is there so that it would be possible to question it. |
| W1:199.8 | Heaven offers thanks for the increase of joy your practice brings | even to it. And God Himself extends His Love and happiness each time |
| W2:251.1 | only what I need. All that I sought before I needed not and did not | even want. My only need I did not recognize. But now I see that I |
| W2:253.1 | It is impossible that anything should come to me unbidden by myself. | Even in this world, it is I who rule my destiny. What happens is what |
| W2:273.1 | tranquility. If this is not yet feasible, we are content and | even more than satisfied to learn how such a day can be achieved. If |
| W2:300.1 | who come here. For their joys are gone before they are possessed, or | even grasped. Yet this is also the idea that lets no false perception |
| W2:334.1 | my Father offers me. Illusions must be vain and dreams are gone, | even while they are woven out of thoughts that rest on false |
| W2:345.1 | one I give returns to me, reminding me the law of love is universal. | Even here it takes a form which can be recognized and seen to work. |
| W2:355.1 | treasure waits for me, and I need but reach out my hand to find it. | Even now my fingers touch it. It is very close. I need not wait an |
| M:1.1 | light, but that is enough. He has entered an agreement with God | even if he does not yet believe in Him. He has become a bringer of |
| M:2.3 | the course emphasizes, you are not free to choose the curriculum or | even the form in which you will learn it. You are free, however, to |
| M:2.4 | to an instant so ancient that it is beyond all memory and past | even the possibility of remembering. Yet because it is an instant |
| M:3.2 | for bumping into him; perhaps the students will become friends. | Even at the level of the most casual encounter, it is possible for |
| M:3.5 | necessarily recognize this; in fact, they generally do not. They may | even be quite hostile to each other for some time, and perhaps for |
| M:3.5 | lesson, they become the saviors of the teachers who falter and may | even seem to fail. No teacher of God can fail to find the Help he |
| M:4.12 | wish to deceive that makes for war. No one at one with himself can | even conceive of conflict. Conflict is the inevitable result of |
| M:4.20 | whom it seemed to happen. Perhaps it was not understood at the time. | Even so, the teacher of God is willing to reconsider all his past |
| M:5.8 | and they obey. They have no idea how insane this concept is. If they | even suspected it, they would be healed. Yet they suspect nothing. To |
| M:6.1 | depression, and a sense of loss so deep that the patient might | even try to destroy himself. Having nothing to live for, he may ask |
| M:10.1 | is “good judgment” to one is “bad judgment” to another. Further, | even the same person classifies the same action as showing “good” |
| M:12.1 | who was always wholly spirit now no longer sees Himself as a body or | even as in a body. Therefore He is limitless. And being limitless, |
| M:12.3 | to the deluded. Only a very few can hear God's Voice at all, and | even they cannot communicate His messages directly through the Spirit |
| M:14.2 | the world is over. It will not be destroyed nor attacked nor | even touched. It will merely cease to seem to be. |
| M:15.4 | given you and your best efforts meet with lack of appreciation and | even contempt, give up these foolish thoughts. They are too small and |
| M:16.11 | —that it works. All through his training, every day and hour, and | even every minute and second, must God's teachers learn to recognize |
| M:17.4 | aroused. It may be merely slight irritation, perhaps too mild to be | even clearly recognized. Or it may also take the form of intense rage |
| M:17.8 | interpretation and not a fact, it is never justified. Once this is | even dimly grasped, the way is open. Now it is possible to take the |
| M:18.5 | of God to let all his own mistakes be corrected. If he senses | even the faintest hint of irritation in himself as he responds to |
| M:19.2 | rise to meet one as he travels on, be foretold from the outset. Yet | even these, whose splendor reaches indescribable heights as one |
| M:20.4 | you have picked it up again. But you will learn, as you remember | even faintly now what happiness was yours without it, that you must |

| M:23.1 | God's gifts can rarely be received directly. | Even the most advanced of God's teachers will give way to temptation |
| M:24.5 | is that birth was not the beginning and death is not the end. Yet | even this much is not required of the beginner. He need merely accept |
| M:25.1 | that seem quite startling to him. Yet nothing he can do can compare | even in the slightest with the glorious surprise of remembering who |

| W2:346.2 | And when the | evening comes today, we will remember nothing but the peace of God. |

| W1:4.3 | the idea for today, identify each thought by the central figure or | event it contains. For example: |
| W1:5.1 | like the preceding one, can be used with any person, situation, or | event you think is causing you pain. Apply it specifically to |
| W1:20.5 | The extra repetitions should be applied to any situation, person, or | event which upsets you. You can see them differently, and you will. |
| W1:38.9 | concerning you or someone else arises or comes to mind. In that | event, use the more specific form of application. |
| W1:46.13 | of any kind of negative reaction to anyone, present or not. In this | event, tell him silently, |
| W1:71.2 | else spoke or acted differently, if some external circumstance or | event were changed, you would be saved. Thus the source of salvation |

| Tx:27.79 | takes many forms and seems to show a great variety of places and | events wherein its “hero” finds itself, the dream has but one |
| Tx:27.80 | but the dream. And so you wander idly in and out of places and | events which it contrives. That this is all the body does is true, |
| Tx:28.4 | memory, for God Himself is there. Yet this is not a memory of past | events, but only of a present state. You are so long accustomed to |
| Tx:29.16 | appear to change with time, with sickness or with health, and with | events that seem to alter it. Yet this but means the mind remains |
| Tx:30.84 | Only a constant purpose can endow | events with stable meaning. But it must accord one meaning to them |
| Tx:30.85 | it everywhere, unchanged by circumstance. And so you offer it to all | events, and let them offer you stability. |
| Tx:30.87 | entails the loss of your ability to see relationships among | events. And looked at separately, they have no meaning. For there is |
| W1:34.3 | thoughts, anxiety provoking situations, “offending” personalities or | events, or anything else about which you are harboring unloving |
| W1:35.8 | way. They will occur to you as various situations, personalities and | events in which you figure cross your mind. Pick up any specific |

| Tx:8.90 | Will of God is one of the strangest beliefs that the human mind has | ever made. This could not possibly have occurred unless the mind were |
| Tx:8.105 | then, that God's Will is already possible and nothing else will | ever be. This is the simple acceptance of reality, because only this |
| Tx:8.107 | Everyone who has | ever tried to use prayer to request something has experienced what |
| Tx:8.109 | it is equally certain that no response given by the Holy Spirit will | ever be one which would increase fear. It is possible that His answer |
| Tx:9.13 | sense because they come from God. They are as sensible now as they | ever were, because they speak of ideas which are eternal. Forgiveness |
| Tx:9.89 | it of them. All this has never been. Nothing but the laws of God has | ever operated, and nothing except His Will will ever be. You were |

| Tx:10.62 | unto the Father together, as it was in the beginning, is now, and | ever shall be, for such is the nature of God's Son as His Father |
| Tx:10.70 | Every loving thought that the Son of God | ever had is eternal. Those which his mind perceived in this world are |
| Tx:11.55 | it you look upon with love. This gives it the only reality it will | ever have. Its value is not in itself, but yours is in you. As |
| Tx:12.12 | deeper than the ego's foundation, and much stronger than it will | ever be, is your intense and burning love of God, and His for you. |
| Tx:12.71 | you will travel light and journey lightly, for His sight is | ever on the journey's end which is His goal. God's Son is not a |
| Tx:13.6 | blends quietly into the One Reality of God. The only miracle that | ever was is God's most holy Son, created in the One Reality that is |
| Tx:13.27 | much his Father loves him. And it will seem incredible that he has | ever thought his Father loved him not and looked upon him as |
| Tx:13.31 | upon his holiness and offer thanks unto his Father that no guilt has | ever touched him. |
| Tx:13.32 | No illusion that you have | ever held against him has touched his innocence in any way. His |
| Tx:13.36 | you made not a war that could endanger freedom. Nothing destructive | ever was or will be. The war, the guilt, the past are gone as one |
| Tx:13.37 | There is a sense of peace so deep that no dream in this world has | ever brought even a dim imagining of what it is. |

| Tx:13.78 | against your peace as surely as you made the wrong decision in | ever thinking that salvation lay in you alone. Salvation is of Him to |
| Tx:13.79 | Who has remembered you. For it is quite impossible that He could | ever let His Son drop from His loving mind wherein he was created and |
| Tx:13.89 | them. When you release them, they are gone. God will not fail nor | ever has in anything. |
| Tx:14.2 | is nothing on earth with which it can compare and nothing you have | ever felt, apart from Him, that resembles it ever so faintly. You |
| Tx:14.2 | and nothing you have ever felt, apart from Him, that resembles it | ever so faintly. You cannot even give a blessing in perfect |
| Tx:14.60 | Your learning gives the present no meaning at all. Nothing you have | ever learned can help you understand the present or teach you how to |
| Tx:14.67 | Son can make no needs His Father will not meet if he but turn to Him | ever so little. Yet He cannot compel His Son to turn to Him and |
| Tx:14.74 | abandon, for it is not His Will to do so. With your perfection | ever in His sight, He gives the gift of peace to everyone who |
| Tx:15.23 | and accept it gladly, that there is no form of littleness that can | ever content you. You are free to try as many as you wish, but all |
| Tx:15.63 | nothing else, you could not be in full communication with all that | ever was. Yet as long as you prefer to be something else, or would |
| Tx:15.67 | As we bring it to light, your only question will be why it was you | ever wanted it. You have nothing to lose by looking open-eyed at |
| Tx:15.82 | Himself not from you, He withheld not His creation. Nothing that | ever was created but is yours. Your relationships are with the |
| Tx:15.91 | reality of this relationship becomes the only truth that you could | ever want. All truth is here. |
| Tx:15.109 | with Him, and with Him they remember the only relationship they | ever had and ever want to have. |
| Tx:15.109 | and with Him they remember the only relationship they ever had and | ever want to have. |
| Tx:16.19 | problem to the Holy Spirit He has not solved for you, nor will you | ever do so. You have never tried to solve anything yourself and been |
| Tx:16.25 | You who are host to God are also host to them. For nothing real has | ever left the mind of its creator. And what is not real was never |
| Tx:16.53 | over and over this ritual is enacted. And it is never completed nor | ever will be completed. For the ritual of completion cannot complete, |
| Tx:16.58 | unreal. This year is thus the time to make the easiest decision that | ever confronted you and also the only one. You will cross the bridge |
| Tx:16.81 | with You in which there are no illusions and where none can | ever enter. Our holiness is Yours. What can there be in us that needs |
| Tx:17.7 | beautiful those you forgive will look to you? In no fantasy have you | ever seen anything so lovely. Nothing you see here, sleeping or |
| Tx:17.7 | that you remember that made your heart seem to sing with joy has | ever brought you even a little part of the happiness this sight will |
| Tx:17.9 | This step, the smallest | ever taken by anything, is still the greatest accomplishment of all |
| Tx:17.10 | that has been used for learning will have no function. Nothing will | ever change; no shifts nor shadings, no differences, no variations |
| Tx:17.12 | have no meaning. Who awake in Heaven could dream that there could | ever be need of salvation? |
| Tx:17.21 | you. Its loveliness will so attract you that you will be unwilling | ever to lose the sight of it again. And you will let it transform the |
| Tx:17.24 | rest let go. And what is thus let go is all the truth the past could | ever offer to the present as witnesses for its reality, while what is |
| Tx:17.29 | answer with a substitute. Every special relationship which you have | ever undertaken has as its fundamental purpose the aim of occupying |
| Tx:17.72 | there was extended to every situation in which you enter or will | ever enter. And every situation was thus made free of the past, which |
| Tx:18.4 | truth to illusion, infinity to time, and life to death, was all you | ever made. Your whole world rests upon it. Everything you see |
| Tx:18.4 | you see reflects it, and every special relationship which you have | ever made is part of it. |
| Tx:18.9 | as you are with Him. The original error has not entered here, nor | ever will. Here is the radiant truth to which the Holy Spirit has |
| Tx:18.20 | The Holy Spirit, | ever practical in His wisdom, accepts your dreams and uses them as |
| Tx:18.27 | The Will of God is granted you. For you desire the only thing you | ever had or ever were. |
| Tx:18.27 | of God is granted you. For you desire the only thing you ever had or | ever were. |
| Tx:18.56 | you within it, and it within you. There is nothing else, anywhere or | ever. |
| Tx:19.55 | garden where no sound but singing and a softly joyous whispering is | ever heard. This is a feast which honors your holy relationship and |
| Tx:20.12 | Your home has called to you since time began, nor have you | ever failed entirely to hear. You heard but knew not how to look nor |
| Tx:20.42 | instant as a different point in time. It never changes. All that it | ever held or will ever hold is here right now. The past takes nothing |
| Tx:20.42 | point in time. It never changes. All that it ever held or will | ever hold is here right now. The past takes nothing from it, and the |
| Tx:21.11 | the body. You know the ancient song and know it well. Nothing will | ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn [of love] the Son of |
| Tx:21.32 | where your faith was laid. This is His direction, the only one He | ever sees. And when you wander, He reminds you there is but one. His |
| Tx:21.83 | do so if he does not see he does it. And if he sees his happiness as | ever changing, now this, now that, and now an elusive shadow attached |
| Tx:22.9 | to you. What needs interpretation must be alien. Nor will it | ever be made understandable by an interpreter you cannot understand. |
| Tx:22.21 | be impossible, and no one undertakes to do what holds no hope of | ever being done. You know what your Creator wills is possible, but |
| Tx:23.9 | that it is impossible God and the ego, or yourself and it, will | ever meet. You seem to meet and make your strange alliances on |
| Tx:23.54 | and wholly shared. They know it is impossible their happiness could | ever suffer change of any kind. Perhaps you think the battleground |
| Tx:23.54 | and a sense of love so deep and quiet that no touch of doubt can | ever mar your certainty? And that will last forever? |
| Tx:24.5 | All that is | ever cherished as a hidden belief, to be defended though |
| Tx:24.29 | you will oppose His Will forever. Nor is it possible the two can | ever be the same while specialness stands like a flaming sword of |
| Tx:24.37 | by the truth. They will not stand before it. Yet what comfort has | ever been in them that you would keep the gift your Father asks from |
| Tx:25.12 | does despair result. And there is no exception, nor will there | ever be. The only value that the past can hold is that you learn it |
| Tx:25.13 | your choice, while you would seek for hope where none is | ever found. |
| Tx:25.18 | light that shines from it to its Creator. Think not this face was | ever darkened because you saw it in a frame of death. God kept it |
| Tx:25.36 | Heaven. Every leaf that falls is given life in you. Each bird that | ever sang will sing again in you. And every flower that ever bloomed |
| Tx:25.36 | bird that ever sang will sing again in you. And every flower that | ever bloomed has saved its perfume and its loveliness for you. What |
| Tx:25.52 | one belief so deeply valued here were true, then every Thought God | ever had is an illusion. And if but one Thought of His is true, then |
| Tx:26.21 | is truth to him must be brought to the last comparison that he will | ever make, the last evaluation that will be possible, the final |
| Tx:26.31 | Nothing is | ever lost but time, which in the end is [nothing. It] is but a little |
| Tx:26.32 | first. And in that tiny instant time was gone, for that was all it | ever was. What God gave Answer to is answered and is gone. |
| Tx:26.62 | His Kingdom is united—thus it was created, and thus will it | ever be. |
| Tx:26.80 | every living thing and lifts it into Heaven, where the lights grow | ever brighter as each one comes home. The incomplete is made complete |
| Tx:27.6 | he has never sinned—that nothing which his madness bid him do was | ever done or ever had effects of any kind; that no reproach he laid |
| Tx:27.6 | sinned—that nothing which his madness bid him do was ever done or | ever had effects of any kind; that no reproach he laid upon his heart |
| Tx:27.6 | had effects of any kind; that no reproach he laid upon his heart was | ever justified, and no attack can ever touch him with the poisoned |
| Tx:27.6 | he laid upon his heart was ever justified, and no attack can | ever touch him with the poisoned and relentless sting of fear. Attest |
| Tx:27.18 | Son unto his own, will yet be the last trumpet that the world will | ever hear. Brother, there is no death. And this you learn when you |
| Tx:27.34 | vanishes and symbols fade, and nothing which the eyes have | ever seen or ears have heard remains to be perceived. |
| Tx:27.38 | that could be found. Nowhere outside a single simple question is | ever asked. The world can only ask a double question with many |
| Tx:27.73 | are the dreamer of the world of dreams. No other cause it has, nor | ever will. Nothing more fearful than an idle dream has terrified |
| Tx:27.79 | the time of birth to dying is the theme of every dream the world has | ever had. The “hero” of this dream will never change nor will its |
| Tx:27.81 | How willing are you to escape effects of all the dreams the world has | ever had? Is it your wish to let no dream appear to be the cause of |
| Tx:29.55 | in fear. Christ's enemy is nowhere. He can take no form in which he | ever will be real. |
| Tx:30.32 | that makes decision powerful and gives it all effects that it will | ever have. It needs but two. These two are joined before there can be |
| Tx:30.33 | consent, as you would have it be. And not one Thought that God has | ever had but waited for your blessing to be born. God is no enemy to |
| Tx:30.34 | is to do your will! For that is freedom. There is nothing else that | ever should be called by freedom's name. Unless you do your will, you |
| Tx:30.45 | was not there; no instant when its light grew dimmer or less perfect | ever was. |
| Tx:30.55 | happy dream? It asks you but that you forgive all things that no one | ever did, to overlook what is not there, and not to look upon the |
| Tx:30.56 | have no need of them. They offer him no single thing that he could | ever want. He is delivered from illusions by his will and but |
| Tx:30.65 | and all fear. Look back no longer, for what lies ahead is all you | ever wanted in your hearts. Give up the world! But not to sacrifice. |
| Tx:30.67 | of guilt. Not one was bought except at cost of pain, nor was it | ever paid by you alone. |
| Tx:30.72 | Unjustified forgiveness is attack. And this is all the world can | ever give. It pardons “sinners” sometimes but remains aware that they |
| Tx:30.90 | and has no effects which anything in Heaven or on earth could | ever alter. But appearances are shown to be unreal because they |
| Tx:31.3 | the lessons endlessly in every form you could conceive of them could | ever doubt the power of your learning skill. There is no greater |
| Tx:31.7 | of happiness in it. There is no plan for safety you can make that | ever will succeed. There is no joy that you can seek for here and |
| Tx:31.12 | Let us be still an instant and forget all things we | ever learned, all thoughts we had, and every preconception which we |
| Tx:31.12 | of judgment, unaware of any thoughts of evil or of good that | ever crossed your mind of anyone. Now do [you] know him not. But you |
| Tx:31.22 | Be very still an instant. Come without all thought of what you | ever learned before and put aside all images you made. The old will |
| Tx:31.39 | Think not that happiness is | ever found by following a road away from it. This makes no sense and |
| Tx:31.53 | upon this concept of the self. And both would go if either one were | ever raised to doubt. The Holy Spirit does not seek to throw you into |
| Tx:31.64 | world your eyes could never find. Be not concerned how this could | ever be. You do not understand how what you see arose to meet your |
| Tx:31.77 | For God has given you His Son to save from every concept that he | ever held. |
| W1:23.1 | The idea for today contains the only way out of fear that will | ever succeed. Nothing else will work; everything else is meaningless. |
| W1:29.3 | today's idea perfectly. And you will not understand how you could | ever have found it difficult. |
| W1:39.4 | Your holiness is the answer to every question that was | ever asked, is being asked now, or will be asked in the future. Your |
| W1:44.6 | If you can stand aside from the ego by | ever so little, you will have no difficulty in recognizing that its |
| W1:66.12 | today. Remember the outcomes fairly and consider also whether it was | ever reasonable to expect happiness from anything the ego ever |
| W1:66.12 | it was ever reasonable to expect happiness from anything the ego | ever proposed. Yet the ego is the only alternative to the Holy |
| W1:68.5 | to find out how you would feel without them. If you succeed even by | ever so little, there will never be a problem in motivation ever |
| W1:68.5 | even by ever so little, there will never be a problem in motivation | ever again. |
| W1:94.1 | sights of this world disappear, and all the thoughts that this world | ever held are wiped away forever by this one idea. Here is salvation |
| W1:106.4 | miracles a thousand times as happy and as wonderful as those you | ever dreamt or wished for in your dreams. His miracles are true. They |
| W1:109.2 | is. Here is the end of suffering for all the world and everyone who | ever came and yet will come to linger for a while. Here is the |
| W1:121.1 | you at every turn and bring uncertainty to all your hopes of | ever finding quietness and peace. Here are all questions answered; |
| W1:124.6 | No miracle can | ever be denied to those who know that they are one with God. No |
| W1:124.10 | to which you gave this half an hour, thankfully aware no time was | ever better spent. |
| W1:130.10 | perception, it is not the kind of seeing that your eyes alone have | ever seen before. And you will know God's strength upheld as you made |
| W1:132.2 | mind means you have changed the source of all ideas you think or | ever thought or yet will think. |
| W1:132.9 | indeed your own imagining, then you can loose it from all things you | ever thought it was by merely changing all the thoughts that gave it |
| W1:132.9 | dead arise when you let thoughts of life replace all thoughts you | ever held of death. |
| W1:132.15 | Today our purpose is to free the world from all the idle thoughts we | ever held about it and about all living things we see upon it. They |
| W1:135.19 | did not let you see His loving blessing shine in every step you | ever took. While you made plans for death, He led you gently to |
| W1:135.26 | in the light and joy of simple truth, you will but wonder why you | ever thought that you must be defended from release. Heaven asks |
| W1:137.10 | extend the little help He asks in freeing you from everything that | ever caused you pain. And as you let yourself be healed, you see all |
| W1:137.16 | the Word of God to take the place of all the foolish thoughts that | ever were imagined. Now we come together to make well all that was |
| W1:152.8 | will disappear. What rises to awareness then will be all that there | ever was, eternally as it is now. And it will take the place of |
| W1:165.2 | The Thought of God created you. It left you not, nor have you | ever been apart from It an instant. It belongs to you. By It you |
| W1:182.3 | cannot be made by him. There is no substitute for Heaven. All he | ever made was hell. |
| W1:185.12 | attribute that sets the gifts of God apart from every dream that | ever seemed to take the place of truth. |
| W1:189.7 | bring with you one thought the past has taught nor one belief you | ever learned before from anything. Forget this world, forget this |
| W1:190.11 | And so again we make the only choice that | ever can be made—we choose between illusions and the truth, or pain |
| W1:195.6 | thing and therefore one with Him. And we rejoice that no exceptions | ever can be made which would reduce our wholeness nor impair or |
| W1:195.10 | the way to Him and shorten our learning time by more than you could | ever dream of. Gratitude goes hand in hand with love, and where one |
| W1:197.9 | forgot the function God has given you. But never think that He has | ever ceased to offer thanks to you. |
| W1:198.6 | will save. His words contain all hope, all blessing and all joy that | ever can be found upon this earth. His words are born in God, and |
| W1:198.13 | an instant longer. Then are symbols done and everything you | ever thought you made completely vanished from the mind which God |
| W2:231.1 | have called by many names. Yet is Your Love the only thing I seek or | ever sought. For there is nothing else that I could ever really want |
| W2:231.1 | thing I seek or ever sought. For there is nothing else that I could | ever really want to find. Let me remember You. What else could I |
| W2:234.1 | nor break in thoughts which are forever unified as one. Nothing has | ever happened to disturb the peace of God the Father and the Son. |
| W2:252.1 | perfect purity is far more brilliant than is any light that I have | ever looked upon. Its love is limitless, with an intensity that holds |
| W2:281.1 | is as You created him. Your Thoughts can only bring me happiness. If | ever I am sad or hurt or ill, I have forgotten what You think and put |
| W2:WISC.4 | one event in time which time itself cannot affect. For everyone who | ever came to die or yet will come or who is present now is equally |
| W2:WILJ.3 | on all your errors, freeing you from them and all effects they | ever seemed to have. To fear God's saving grace is but to fear |
| W2:344.1 | treasure that I thought I had, I found an empty place where nothing | ever was or is or will be. Who can share a dream? And what can an |
| W2:FL.6 | for these are His own Words to you. And more than that can no one | ever have, for in these Words is all there is and all that there will |
| M:4.7 | unless the next obvious step is taken. The third step is rarely if | ever begun until the second is complete. Therefore, the period of |
| M:10.4 | you know how many times you merely thought you were right, without | ever realizing you were wrong? Why would you choose such an arbitrary |
| M:12.1 | And being limitless, His Thoughts are joined with God's forever and | ever. His perception of Himself is based upon God's Judgment, not His |
| M:22.4 | sick. Perhaps he can accept the idea in theory, but it is rarely, if | ever, consistently applied to all specific forms of sickness, both in |

| Tx:25.4 | join and raise Him to His Father, whole and pure and worthy of His | everlasting Love. |
| Tx:29.23 | that he would keep beside him as he walks through darkness to the | everlasting light. |
| Tx:29.37 | yourself. And leading finally beyond all dreams unto the peace of | everlasting life. |
| W1:124.2 | with itself. How easily do errors disappear and death give place to | everlasting life. Our shining footprints point the way to truth, for |
| W1:124.13 | I am one with God, at one with all my brothers and my Self, in | everlasting holiness and peace. |
| W1:134.5 | to truth. Guilt cannot be forgiven. If you sin, your guilt is | everlasting. Those who are forgiven from the view their sins are real |
| W1:136.10 | overcome your choice to die. And so the body is more powerful than | everlasting life, Heaven more frail than hell, and God's design for |

| Tx:1.88 | Equality does not imply homogeneity now. When | everyone recognizes that he has everything, individual contributions |
| Tx:1.88 | Children have His total love, and all His gifts are freely given to | everyone alike. “Except ye become as little children” means that, |
| Tx:1.105 | one body to another, because the real vision is still so dim. | Everyone can use his body best by enlarging man's perception so he |
| Tx:2.35 | to clarify after the value of the goal itself is firmly established. | Everyone defends his own treasure. You do not have to tell him to do |
| Tx:2.36 | defense which cannot be used destructively. That is because, while | everyone must eventually join it, it is not a device which was |
| Tx:2.47 | The acceptance of the Atonement by | everyone is only a matter of time. In fact, both time and matter were |

| Tx:3.26 | has not experienced some light and some [of everything]. This makes | everyone really unable to deny truth totally, even if he generally |
| Tx:3.61 | there will be no more. This is symbolic only in the sense that | everyone is much better off without judgment. When the Bible says, |
| Tx:3.70 | Peace is a natural heritage of the Soul. | Everyone is free to refuse to accept his inheritance, but he is not |
| Tx:3.70 | is not free to establish what his inheritance is. The problem which | everyone must decide is the fundamental question of authorship. All |

| Tx:5.28 | Our task is the joyous one of waking it to the Call for God. | Everyone will answer the Call of the Holy Spirit, or the Sonship |
| Tx:6.2 | since an extreme example is a particularly helpful learning device. | Everyone teaches and teaches all the time. This is a responsibility |
| Tx:6.47 | know. The Holy Spirit does not speak first, but He always answers. | Everyone has called upon Him for help at one time or another and in |
| Tx:6.47 | Holy Spirit answers truly, He answers for all time, which means that | everyone has the answer now. |
| Tx:6.71 | in it therefore perceive this as an attack on them. This is because | everyone identifies himself with his thought system, and every |
| Tx:7.22 | The ego does not want to teach | everyone all it has learned, because that would defeat its purpose. |
| Tx:7.41 | Healing is the one ability which | everyone can develop and must develop if he is to be healed. Healing |
| Tx:7.42 | always tries to weaken. Healing perceives nothing in the healer that | everyone else does not share with him. Magic always sees something |
| Tx:7.53 | is the true communion of the Spirit, Who sees the altar of God in | everyone and, by bringing it to your appreciation, calls upon you to |
| Tx:7.80 | see it everywhere, because it is everywhere. See His abundance in | everyone, and you will know that you are in Him with them. They are |
| Tx:7.95 | of every Son of God are yours since every creation belongs to | everyone, being created for the Sonship as a whole. |

| Tx:8.15 | you acknowledge this, you bring the acknowledgment automatically to | everyone, because you have acknowledged everyone. By your recognition |
| Tx:8.15 | automatically to everyone, because you have acknowledged | everyone. By your recognition you awaken theirs, and through theirs |
| Tx:8.20 | teacher you choose, is know thyself. There is nothing else to learn. | Everyone is looking for himself and for the power and glory he thinks |
| Tx:8.99 | Ultimately | everyone must remember the Will of God, because ultimately everyone |

| Tx:8.107 | Everyone who has ever tried to use prayer to request something has | |
| Tx:8.113 | prayers lies in them. You will be answered as you hear the answer in | everyone. Do not listen to anything else, or you will not hear truth. |
| Tx:8.118 | and you can give to Him only where you see Him. If you see Him in | everyone, consider how much you will be asking of Him and how much |
| Tx:8.118 | because His answer is all you can ask for and want. Say, then, to | everyone, |
| Tx:9.81 | always receive as much as you accept. You could accept peace now for | everyone you meet and offer them perfect freedom from all illusions |
| Tx:10.58 | for Christ or for the ego, depending on what you perceive in him. | Everyone convinces you of what you want to perceive and of the |
| Tx:10.62 | and your life. You live in me because you live in God. And | everyone lives in you, as you live in everyone. Can you, then, |
| Tx:10.62 | because you live in God. And everyone lives in you, as you live in | everyone. Can you, then, perceive unworthiness in a brother and not |
| Tx:10.65 | the crucifixion of God's Son is the work of the redemption, in which | everyone has a part of equal value. God does not judge His blameless |
| Tx:11.29 | the ego is to attack yourself and make yourself poor. That is why | everyone who identifies with the ego feels deprived. What he |
| Tx:11.30 | is merely your attempt to maintain your ego identification, for | everyone believes that identification is salvation. Yet consider what |
| Tx:11.36 | its central teaching. It never puts it this way; on the contrary, | everyone who believes that the ego is salvation is intensely engaged |
| Tx:11.58 | light of the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the Holy Spirit will lead | everyone home to his Father, where Christ waits as his Self. |
| Tx:11.59 | and becomes generalized. Gradually you learn to apply it to | everyone and everything, for its applicability is universal. When |
| Tx:11.61 | Atonement will radiate from your acceptance of it for yourself to | everyone the Holy Spirit sends you for your blessing. In every Child |
| Tx:11.62 | Everyone in the world must play his part in the redemption of the | |
| Tx:11.93 | He has always sought his guiltlessness, and he has found it. For | everyone is seeking to escape from the prison he has made, and the |
| Tx:12.37 | If you see your own hatred as your brother, you are not seeing him. | Everyone draws nigh unto what he loves and recoils from what he |
| Tx:12.46 | because it is delusional. When you have learned to look upon | everyone with no reference at all to the past, either his or yours as |
| Tx:12.47 | cloud of guilt has risen to obscure Him, and He stands revealed in | everyone you meet because you see Him through Himself. To be born |
| Tx:12.54 | its witnesses, for having given light to them, they will return it. | Everyone you see in light brings your light closer to your own |
| Tx:13.5 | aspect is the same, perceived in the same light and therefore one. | Everyone seen without the past thus brings you nearer to the end of |
| Tx:13.7 | and your Father's gift you cannot lose. Offer Christ's gift to | everyone and everywhere, for miracles offered the Son of God through |
| Tx:13.16 | itself. Project it not, for while you do, it cannot be undone. With | everyone whom you release from guilt, great is the joy in Heaven, |
| Tx:13.24 | the past and give your mind in peace over to the Atonement. When | everyone is welcome to you as you would have yourself be welcome to |
| Tx:13.46 | and there is no possibility that the plan the Holy Spirit offers to | everyone for the salvation of everyone will not be perfectly |
| Tx:13.46 | the plan the Holy Spirit offers to everyone for the salvation of | everyone will not be perfectly accomplished. You will be released, |
| Tx:13.69 | to your happiness that comes from choosing to be free of guilt. | Everyone you offer healing to returns it. Everyone you attack keeps |
| Tx:13.69 | to be free of guilt. Everyone you offer healing to returns it. | Everyone you attack keeps it and cherishes it by holding it against |
| Tx:13.71 | is invulnerability. Therefore, make your invulnerability manifest to | everyone, and teach him that whatever he may try to do to you, your |
| Tx:13.80 | for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and teach His answer to | everyone who struggles in the dark. For you decide for them and for |
| Tx:13.81 | reconsider. Trust Him to answer quickly, surely, and with love for | everyone who will be touched in any way by the decision. And everyone |
| Tx:13.81 | for everyone who will be touched in any way by the decision. And | everyone will be. Would you take unto yourself the sole |
| Tx:13.81 | the sole responsibility for deciding what can bring only good to | everyone? Would you know this? |
| Tx:14.11 | which seeks but to restore what is the right of God's creation. From | everyone whom you accord release from guilt, you will inevitably |
| Tx:14.11 | confidence in your safe inclusion in what is for all in | everyone you bring within its safety and its perfect peace. |
| Tx:14.12 | Peace, then, be unto | everyone who becomes a teacher of peace. For peace is the |
| Tx:14.12 | purity from which no one is excluded. Within its holy circle is | everyone whom God created as His Son. Joy is its unifying attribute, |
| Tx:14.12 | no one left outside to suffer guilt alone. The power of God draws | everyone to its safe embrace of love and union. Stand quietly within |
| Tx:14.13 | Teach peace with me and stand with me on holy ground. Remember for | everyone your Father's power that He has given him. Believe not that |
| Tx:14.43 | the message which shines forth from what the mirror holds out for | everyone to see no one can fail to understand. It is the message that |
| Tx:14.44 | change. Its meaning to those who look upon it is not obscure, for | everyone perceives it as the same. All bring their different problems |
| Tx:14.46 | from time to holiness as surely as the reflection of holiness calls | everyone to lay all guilt aside. Reflect the peace of Heaven here and |
| Tx:14.46 | and bring this world to Heaven. For the reflection of truth draws | everyone to truth, and as they enter into it, they leave all |
| Tx:14.51 | gives equal blessing to all who share in it, and that is also why | everyone shares in it. The power of God is limitless. And being |
| Tx:14.55 | your thoughts and give only the answer with which He answers you. | Everyone seeks for love as you do and knows it not unless he joins |
| Tx:14.63 | there are dark lessons in your minds which hurt and hinder you and | everyone around you. The absence of perfect peace means but one |
| Tx:14.74 | your perfection ever in His sight, He gives the gift of peace to | everyone who perceives the need for peace and who would have it. Make |
| Tx:15.14 | to reestablish perfect sanity, perfect peace, and perfect love for | everyone, for God, and for yourself. As long as it takes to remember |
| Tx:15.29 | you. For God would give Himself through you. He reaches from you to | everyone and beyond everyone to His Son's creations, but without |
| Tx:15.29 | give Himself through you. He reaches from you to everyone and beyond | everyone to His Son's creations, but without leaving you. Far beyond |
| Tx:15.34 | Call forth in | everyone only the remembrance of God and of the Heaven that is in |
| Tx:15.52 | Everyone on earth has formed special relationships, and although this | |
| Tx:15.65 | fully returned. Being complete, it asks nothing. Being wholly pure, | everyone joined in it has everything. This is not the basis for any |
| Tx:15.81 | denied. You are forever in a relationship so holy that it calls to | everyone to escape from loneliness and join you in your love. And |
| Tx:15.81 | from loneliness and join you in your love. And where you are must | everyone seek and find you there. |
| Tx:15.87 | ego has no purpose you would share with it. For the ego would limit | everyone to a body for its purposes, and while you think it has a |
| Tx:15.93 | when only this I will to offer you? And to see me is to see me in | everyone and offer everyone the gift you offer me. I am as incapable |
| Tx:15.93 | will to offer you? And to see me is to see me in everyone and offer | everyone the gift you offer me. I am as incapable of receiving |
| Tx:15.94 | of Christ is the time appointed for the gift of freedom, offered to | everyone. And by your acceptance of it, you have offered it to |
| Tx:15.94 | to everyone. And by your acceptance of it, you have offered it to | everyone. It is in your power to make this season holy, for it is in |
| Tx:15.99 | You think that | everyone outside yourself demands your sacrifice, but you do not see |
| Tx:15.103 | in healing, and let us celebrate our release together by releasing | everyone with us. Leave nothing behind, for release is total, and |
| Tx:16.10 | difficult because you cannot see how it can be extended to include | everyone. And you have learned that it must include everyone to be |
| Tx:16.10 | to include everyone. And you have learned that it must include | everyone to be holy. Concern yourselves not with the extension of |
| Tx:16.19 | Reality is safe and sure and wholly kind to | everyone and everything. There is no greater love than to accept this |
| Tx:16.28 | and for what He is Who created you as you are. Sooner or later must | everyone bridge the gap which he imagines exists between his selves. |
| Tx:16.47 | To | everyone Heaven is completion. There can be no disagreement on this, |
| Tx:16.80 | all illusions are forgiven. From there the miracle extends to bless | everyone and to resolve all problems, be they perceived as great or |
| Tx:17.62 | sees the situation as a whole. The goal establishes the fact that | everyone involved in it will play his part in its accomplishment. |
| Tx:17.71 | light of truth shines from the center of the situation and touches | everyone to whom the situation's purpose calls. It calls to everyone. |
| Tx:17.71 | touches everyone to whom the situation's purpose calls. It calls to | everyone. There is no situation which does not involve your whole |
| Tx:18.20 | kept it a thing apart, its holiness will become an offering to | everyone. |
| Tx:18.21 | Your special relationship will be a means for undoing guilt in | everyone blessed through your holy relationship. It will be a happy |
| Tx:18.21 | not that He has forgotten you to whom He gave the gift. He uses | everyone who calls on Him as means for the salvation of everyone. And |
| Tx:18.21 | He uses everyone who calls on Him as means for the salvation of | everyone. And He will waken everyone through you who offered your |
| Tx:18.21 | on Him as means for the salvation of everyone. And He will waken | everyone through you who offered your relationship to Him. If you but |
| Tx:18.29 | the darkness to light, and this willingness has given strength to | everyone who would remain in darkness. Those who would see will see. |
| Tx:18.58 | only by Him. What limit can there be on you whom He encompasses? | Everyone has experienced what he would call a sense of being |
| Tx:18.68 | Here is the ultimate release which | everyone will one day find in his own way, at his own time. We do not |
| Tx:18.79 | of refuge, prepared by love for them where once a desert was. And | everyone you welcome will bring love with him from Heaven for you. |
| Tx:18.79 | its beneficence, your little garden will expand and reach out to | everyone who thirsts for living water but has grown too weary to go |
| Tx:18.81 | coming. In the holy instant, you ask of love only what it offers | everyone, neither less nor more. Asking for everything, you will |
| Tx:18.93 | of guilt upon it. Here are you forgiven, for here you have forgiven | everyone. Here is the new perception, where everything is bright and |
| Tx:19.1 | its only goal is brought to truth by faith. This faith encompasses | everyone involved, for only thus the situation is perceived as |
| Tx:19.1 | thus the situation is perceived as meaningful and as a whole. And | everyone must be involved in it, or else your faith is limited and |
| Tx:19.11 | is the acknowledgment of union. It is the gracious acknowledgment of | everyone as a Son of your most loving Father, loved by Him like you |
| Tx:19.11 | healed because you looked on what makes faith forever justified in | everyone. |
| Tx:19.37 | And you will carry its message of love and safety and freedom to | everyone who draws nigh unto your temple, where healing waits for him. |
| Tx:19.39 | need to see. When the peace in you has been extended to encompass | everyone, the Holy Spirit's function here will be accomplished. What |
| Tx:19.40 | the whole creation, it must begin with you and from you reach to | everyone who calls and bring him rest by joining you. |
| Tx:19.41 | alone. Christ asks it of you for Himself. He would bring peace to | everyone, and how can He do this except through you? Would you let a |
| Tx:19.44 | But let Him quietly extend the miracle of your relationship to | everyone contained in it, as it was given. |
| Tx:19.55 | This is a feast which honors your holy relationship and at which | everyone is welcomed as an honored guest. And in a holy instant, |
| Tx:19.55 | as an honored guest. And in a holy instant, grace is said by | everyone together as they join in gentleness before the table of |
| Tx:19.66 | of guilt, and all the world will answer. Think of your happiness as | everyone offers you witness of the end of sin and shows you that its |
| Tx:19.87 | see in it the Will of God. Here is the babe of Bethlehem reborn. And | everyone who gives him shelter will follow him, not to the cross, but |
| Tx:19.99 | is it possible to look on this too soon. This is the place to which | everyone must come when he is ready. Once he has found his brother, |
| Tx:19.109 | But the redeemed give joy because they have been healed of pain. | Everyone gives as he receives, but he must choose what it will be |
| Tx:20.38 | is far beyond it. Two voices raised together call to the hearts of | everyone and let them beat as one. And in that single heart beat is |
| Tx:20.38 | the unity of the Son of God together. You give to one another for | everyone, and in your gift is everyone made glad. Forget not Who has |
| Tx:20.38 | together. You give to one another for everyone, and in your gift is | everyone made glad. Forget not Who has given you the gifts you give, |
| Tx:21.12 | in all. And when you see it in each other, you are remembering for | everyone. |
| Tx:21.23 | to you to welcome it or not. Faith and desire go hand in hand, for | everyone believes in what he wants. |
| Tx:21.66 | What madness would conceal, the Holy Spirit still holds out for | everyone to look upon with gladness. |
| Tx:22.9 | no difficulty in understanding what this vision tells you, for | everyone sees only what he thinks he is. And what your sight would |
| Tx:22.42 | you walk the world with me, whose message has not yet been given to | everyone. For you are here to let it be received. God's offer still |
| Tx:22.43 | His message of hope and freedom and release from suffering to | everyone who needs a miracle to save him. |
| Tx:22.44 | How easy is it to offer this miracle to | everyone! No one who has received it for himself could find it |
| Tx:22.59 | given Him to make each little gift of love a source of healing for | everyone. Each little gift you offer to the other lights up the |
| Tx:23.20 | The first chaotic law is that the truth is different for | everyone. Like all these principles, this one maintains that each is |
| Tx:23.43 | and give up the rest. Salvation gives up nothing. It is complete for | everyone. Let the idea of compromise but enter, and the awareness of |
| Tx:24.46 | and of death. He reaches through them, holding out His hand that | everyone may bless all living things and see their holiness. And He |
| Tx:24.62 | How bitterly does | everyone tied to this world defend the specialness he wants to be the |
| Tx:25.20 | along with His. The gratitude of God Himself is freely offered to | everyone who shares His purpose. It is not His Will to be alone. And |
| Tx:25.27 | your error, lest you remain in darkness where the lamps are not. | Everyone here has entered darkness, yet no one has entered it alone. |
| Tx:25.32 | seek for it because it is their purpose to behold it and rejoice. | Everyone seeks for what will bring him joy as he defines it. It is |
| Tx:25.35 | can never fall away and leave you homeless. Those who offer peace to | everyone have found a home in Heaven the world cannot destroy. For it |
| Tx:25.40 | offers you salvation. Condemned by you, he offers death to you. In | everyone you see but the reflection of what you chose to have him be |
| Tx:25.50 | Heaven, and as strong as God Himself. The world is safe from love to | everyone who thinks sin possible. Nor will it change. Yet is it |
| Tx:25.57 | One as sane as He to raise a saner world to meet the sight of | everyone who chose insanity as his salvation. To this One is given |
| Tx:25.61 | is rebirth of the idea no one can lose for anyone to gain. And | everyone must gain if anyone would be a gainer. Here is sanity |
| Tx:25.66 | But justice does He know and knows it well. For He is wholly fair to | everyone. |
| Tx:25.76 | How can the special really understand that justice is the same for | everyone? To take from one to give another must be an injustice to |
| Tx:25.79 | Him. Yet would His justice not be satisfied until it is received by | everyone. |
| Tx:25.83 | And what would be unjust to him cannot occur. Healing must be for | everyone because he does not merit an attack of any kind. What order |
| Tx:25.84 | to specialness. What He cannot perceive He bears no witness to. And | everyone is equally entitled to His gift of healing and deliverance |
| Tx:25.85 | it not. Only forgiveness offers miracles. And pardon must be just to | everyone. |
| Tx:25.86 | must be done to all if anyone is to be healed. No one can lose, and | everyone must benefit. |
| Tx:25.87 | is an example of what justice can accomplish when it is offered to | everyone alike. It is received and given equally. It is awareness |
| Tx:25.87 | it sees no differences where none exist. And thus it is the same for | everyone, because it sees no differences in them. Its offering is |
| Tx:25.88 | What is God's belongs to | everyone and is his due. |
| Tx:26.15 | on him. Nor will the Holy Spirit be content until it is received by | everyone. For what you give to Him is everyone's, and by your giving |
| Tx:26.15 | give to Him is everyone's, and by your giving it can He ensure that | everyone receives it equally. |
| Tx:26.67 | Your ancient name belongs to | everyone, as theirs to you. Call on your brother's name and God will |
| Tx:27.4 | if only it can serve to punish him. The sick are merciless to | everyone, and in contagion do they seek to kill. Death seems an easy |
| Tx:29.6 | know what loving means. And so you must misuse each circumstance and | everyone you meet and see in them a purpose not your own. |
| Tx:29.13 | healed when you accept your gifts, because your Guest will welcome | everyone whose feet have touched the holy ground whereon you stand |
| Tx:29.68 | dreamed by someone else. And in these dreams a melody is heard which | everyone remembers, though he has not heard it since before all time |
| Tx:29.70 | to worship idols and to keep attack. Forgiving dreams are kind to | everyone who figures in the dream. And so they bring the dreamer full |
| Tx:30.59 | quite remembered, for the purpose of forgiveness still remains. Yet | everyone is certain he will go beyond forgiveness, and he but remains |
| Tx:30.75 | for you. What can this be except a false forgiveness of yourself and | everyone who seems apart from you? |
| Tx:30.85 | experiences here. In this shared purpose is one [meaning] shared by | everyone and everything you see. You do not have to judge, for you |
| Tx:31.8 | the call was made. And you will understand it was this call that | everyone and everything within the world has always made, but you had |
| Tx:31.33 | death a little time is given you to use for you alone, a time when | everyone conflicts with you, but you can choose which road will lead |
| Tx:31.35 | offer seem to be quite large in number, but the time must come when | everyone begins to see how like they are to one another. Men have |
| Tx:31.56 | the self has always been the great preoccupation of the world. And | everyone believes that he must find the answer to the riddle of |
| Tx:31.75 | vision does he see the face of Christ and understands he looks on | everyone as he beholds this One. For there is light where darkness |
| Tx:31.77 | as this has saved himself, and thus is he a savior to the rest. To | everyone has God entrusted all, because a partial savior would be one |
| Tx:31.77 | saved. The holy ones whom God has given each of you to save are | everyone you meet or look upon, not knowing who they are, all those |
| Tx:31.78 | and thus expect to see it everywhere. And so they call it forth in | everyone they look upon that he may be what they expect of him. This |
| Tx:31.93 | before your feet the peace of God and power to bring this peace to | everyone who wanders in the world uncertain, lonely, and in constant |
| Tx:31.93 | that you saw before. Yet this a vision is which you must share with | everyone you see, for otherwise you will behold it not. To give this |
| Tx:31.94 | For you will hear, and you will choose again. And in this choice is | everyone made free. |
| W1:37.1 | blessed together. No one loses; nothing is taken away from anyone; | everyone gains through your holy vision. It signifies the end of |
| W1:37.1 | holy vision. It signifies the end of sacrifice because it offers | everyone his full due. And he is entitled to everything because it is |
| W1:52.3 | the world I look upon. I call this seeing. I hold the past against | everyone and everything, making them my “enemies.” When I have |
| W1:52.3 | When I have forgiven myself and remembered who I am, I will bless | everyone and everything I see. There will be no past and therefore no |
| W1:55.6 | about myself are real. It is for that purpose that I attempt to use | everyone and everything. It is this that I believe the world is for. |
| W1:58.3 | the world. The perception of my holiness does not bless me alone. | Everyone and everything I see in its light shares in the joy it |
| W1:58.3 | my holiness, so does the holiness of the world shine forth for | everyone to see. |
| W1:58.5 | my holiness, nothing can make me afraid. And because I am unafraid, | everyone must share in my understanding, which is the gift of God to |
| W1:60.4 | can see it! It will not look anything like what I imagine I see now. | Everyone and everything I see will lean toward me to bless me. I will |
| W1:60.4 | I see will lean toward me to bless me. I will recognize in | everyone my dearest Friend. What could there be to fear in a world |
| W1:68.9 | period trying to think of yourself as completely at peace with | everyone and everything, safe in a world which protects you and loves |
| W1:69.1 | Because your grievances are hiding the light of the world in you, | everyone stands in darkness, and you beside him. But as the veil of |
| W1:69.3 | search today by finding the light in us and holding it up for | everyone who searches with us to look upon and rejoice. |
| W1:71.3 | change of mind that is necessary for salvation is thus demanded of | everyone and everything except yourself. |
| W1:75.2 | now. The light has come. Today the time of light begins for you and | everyone. It is a new era in which a new world is born. The old one |
| W1:77.4 | and that in asking for your rights you are upholding the rights of | everyone. Miracles do not obey the laws of this world. They merely |
| W1:78.6 | will learn that what lay hidden while you saw him not is there in | everyone and can be seen. He who was enemy is more than friend when |
| W1:78.12 | to save us and refuse to hide his light behind our grievances. To | everyone you meet and to the ones you think of or remember from the |
| W1:79.2 | Everyone in this world seems to have his own special problems. Yet | |
| W1:92.6 | Truth is a savior and can only will for happiness and peace for | everyone. It gives its strength to everyone who asks, in limitless |
| W1:92.6 | will for happiness and peace for everyone. It gives its strength to | everyone who asks, in limitless supply. It sees that lack in anyone |
| W1:95.20 | your Father, is a call to all the world to be at one with you. To | everyone you meet today be sure to give the promise of today's idea |
| W1:96.17 | lay another treasure in your growing store. And all of it is given | everyone who asks for it and will accept the gift. Think, then, how |
| W1:97.5 | calls through His Voice to every living thing; offers His sight to | everyone who asks; replaces error with the simple truth. |
| W1:100.7 | today. You bring His happiness to all you look upon, His peace to | everyone who looks on you and sees His message in your happy face. We |
| W1:108.7 | miss. To give is to receive. Today we will attempt to offer peace to | everyone and see how quickly peace returns to us. Light is |
| W1:108.10 | your eyes, and for five minutes think of what you would hold out to | everyone to have it yours. You might, for instance, say: |
| W1:108.11 | To | everyone I offer quietness. To everyone I offer peace of mind. To |
| W1:108.11 | To everyone I offer quietness. To | everyone I offer peace of mind. To everyone I offer gentleness. |
| W1:108.11 | To everyone I offer quietness. To everyone I offer peace of mind. To | everyone I offer gentleness. |
| W1:109.2 | in you, whose vision sees beyond appearances to that same truth in | everyone and everything there is. Here is the end of suffering for |
| W1:109.2 | there is. Here is the end of suffering for all the world and | everyone who ever came and yet will come to linger for a while. Here |
| W1:109.9 | will be faithful to your trust today, forgetting no one, bringing | everyone into the boundless circle of your peace, the holy sanctuary |
| W1:123.4 | God has willed to be our true Identity in Him. Today we smile on | everyone we see and walk with lightened footsteps as we go to do what |
| W1:132.7 | world! This is the central thought the course attempts to teach. Not | everyone is ready to accept it, and each one must go as far as he can |
| W1:133.17 | And then receive what waits for | everyone who reaches unencumbered to the gate of Heaven, which swings |
| W1:135.12 | any goal which serves the greater plan established for the good of | everyone. |
| W1:139.8 | alone we came to gain. What we accept as what we are proclaims what | everyone must be along with us. |
| W1:139.12 | God gave to us when He created us like Him. We can remember it for | everyone, for in creation are all minds as one and in our memory is |
| W1:151.12 | every witness for unholiness, within the Holy, holy as Itself. In | everyone and everything, His Voice would speak to you of nothing but |
| W1:151.15 | listen when you hear the Voice for God give honor to God's Son. And | everyone will share the thoughts with you which He has retranslated |
| W1:151.17 | truth has no illusions and the peace of God, through us, belongs to | everyone. |
| W1:153.12 | is gone. His game instructs in happiness because there is no loser. | Everyone who plays must win, and in his winning is the gain to |
| W1:153.12 | Everyone who plays must win, and in his winning is the gain to | everyone ensured. The game of fear is gladly laid aside when children |
| W1:153.14 | ended. Let this day bring the last chapter closer to the world that | everyone may learn the tales he reads of terrifying destiny, defeat |
| W1:155.11 | truth points out to us. This is our final journey, which we make for | everyone. We must not lose our way. For as truth goes before us, so |
| W1:157.5 | to those you touch and blesses those you look upon. A vision reaches | everyone you meet, and everyone you think of, or who thinks of you. |
| W1:157.5 | blesses those you look upon. A vision reaches everyone you meet, and | everyone you think of, or who thinks of you. For your experience |
| W1:157.6 | this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in our eyes which we can offer | everyone that he may come the sooner to the same experience in which |
| W1:158.7 | of guilt from dreams of sin. It sees no separation. And it looks on | everyone, on every circumstance, all happenings, and all events |
| W1:162.5 | you now accept. With this acceptance is salvation brought to | everyone, for who could cherish sin when holiness like this has |
| W1:166.6 | the rocky road he walks. No one but has identified with him, for | everyone who comes here has pursued the path he follows and has felt |
| W1:166.15 | it not. Become the living proof of what Christ's touch can offer | everyone. God has entrusted all His gifts to you. Be witness in your |
| W1:169.13 | experience that comes from grace. We welcome the release it offers | everyone. We do not ask for the unaskable. We do not look beyond what |
| W1:181.10 | our sins becomes the proof that we are sinless. And our love for | everyone we look upon attests to our remembrance of the holy Self |
| W1:182.3 | We speak today for | everyone who walks this world, for he is not at home. He goes |
| W1:184.6 | This is the sum of the inheritance the world bestows. And | everyone who learns to think that it is so accepts the signs and |
| W1:184.7 | Such is the teaching of the world. It is a phase of learning | everyone who comes must go through. But the sooner he perceives on |
| W1:185.13 | No one can lose and | everyone must gain whenever any gift of God has been requested and |
| W1:187.3 | believe that this is done until you see the miracles it brings to | everyone you look upon. Herein is the idea of giving clarified and |
| W1:187.7 | and you remove the thought of suffering. Your blessing lies on | everyone who suffers when you choose to see all suffering as what it |
| W1:187.11 | it everywhere. We would behold it shining with the grace of God in | everyone. We would not have it be withheld from anything we look |
| W1:188.3 | and lights all vision as it passes by. All of its gifts are given | everyone, and everyone unites in giving thanks to you who give and |
| W1:188.3 | all vision as it passes by. All of its gifts are given everyone, and | everyone unites in giving thanks to you who give and you who have |
| W1:189.3 | shines on everything and peace offers its gentle light to | everyone is inconceivable to those who see a world of hatred, rising |
| W1:191.5 | Identity is truly saved. And his salvation is the gift he gives to | everyone in gratitude to Him Who pointed out the way to happiness |
| W1:192.8 | Who can be born again in Christ but him who has forgiven | everyone he sees or thinks of or imagines? Who could be set free |
| W1:197.7 | grateful only unto God, and He gives thanks for you unto Himself. To | everyone who lives will Christ yet come, for everyone must live and |
| W1:197.7 | you unto Himself. To everyone who lives will Christ yet come, for | everyone must live and breathe in Him. His Being in His Father is |
| W1:200.5 | You will be bound till all the world is seen by you as blessed and | everyone made free of your mistakes and honored as he is. You made |
| W1:200.8 | Peace is the bridge that | everyone will cross to leave this world behind. But peace begins |
| W2:245.1 | Where I go, Your peace goes there with me. It sheds its light on | everyone I meet. I bring it to the desolate and lonely and afraid. I |
| W2:247.2 | So would I look on | everyone today. My brothers are Your Sons. Your Fatherhood created |
| W2:269.1 | all those I made. Today I choose to see a world forgiven in which | everyone shows me the face of Christ and teaches me that what I look |
| W2:270.2 | of today will bless our hearts, and through them peace will come to | everyone. Christ is our eyes today. And through His sight, we offer |
| W2:WIHS.1 | through the grace that God has given Him, to be His gift to | everyone who turns to Him for truth. Across the bridge that He |
| W2:WISC.2 | Forgiveness lights the Second Coming's way because it shines on | everyone as one. And thus is oneness recognized at last. |
| W2:WISC.4 | Coming is the one event in time which time itself cannot affect. For | everyone who ever came to die or yet will come or who is present now |
| W2:315.1 | mercy, and my mind perceives this gift and takes it as its own. And | everyone who finds the way to God becomes my savior, pointing out the |
| W2:338.1 | let salvation come to all the world. For in this single thought is | everyone released at last from fear. Now he has learned that no one |
| W2:339.1 | But he can think that joy is painful, threatening, and dangerous. | Everyone will receive what he requests. But he can be confused indeed |
| W2:WAI.3 | is redeemed. And this, our gift, is therefore given us. We look on | everyone as brothers and perceive all things as kindly and as good. |
| W2:WAI.5 | holy messengers of God who speak for Him, and carrying His Word to | everyone whom He has sent to us, we learn that it is written on our |
| W2:FL.2 | only way to find the peace that God has given us. It is His way that | everyone must travel in the end, because it is this ending God |
| M:I.4 | inevitable. There is no escape from it. How could it be otherwise? | Everyone who follows the world's curriculum, and everyone here does |

| Tx:7.107 | accord with God's laws. The world perceives orders of difficulty in | everything. This is because the ego perceives nothing as wholly |
| Tx:7.108 | he is out of his natural environment and does not function well. | Everything he does becomes a strain, because he was not created for |
| Tx:7.109 | they deny Him, they do not know this, because they deny themselves | everything. |
| Tx:7.110 | You who could give the love of God to | everything you see and touch and remember are literally denying |
| Tx:7.110 | because he has learned it of the Holy Spirit, Who wants to teach him | everything He knows. When a mind has only light, it knows only light. |
| Tx:8.7 | simultaneously from two teachers who are in total disagreement about | everything. Their joint curriculum presents an impossible learning |
| Tx:8.10 | be out of accord, because they are one. This is the undoing of | everything the ego tries to teach. It is not, then, only the |
| Tx:8.11 | the path of freedom, teaching you how to disregard or look beyond | everything that would hold you back. |
| Tx:8.23 | encounter only part of yourself, because you are part of God, Who is | everything. His power and glory are everywhere, and you cannot be |
| Tx:8.24 | God gives whatever belongs to Him, because He gives of Himself, and | everything belongs to Him. Giving of your self is the function He |
| Tx:8.25 | you must be included in it. His laws govern you, because they govern | everything. You cannot exempt yourself from His laws, although you |
| Tx:8.25 | you will feel lonely and helpless, because you are denying yourself | everything. |
| Tx:8.26 | I am come as a light into a world that does deny itself | everything. It does this simply by dissociating itself from |
| Tx:8.26 | itself everything. It does this simply by dissociating itself from | everything. It is therefore an illusion of isolation, maintained by |
| Tx:8.35 | Holy Trinity as separated. You must be included in It, because It is | everything. Unless you take your place in It and fulfill your |
| Tx:8.44 | This son of a loving father left his home and thought he squandered | everything for nothing of any value, although he did not know its |
| Tx:8.54 | link between God and His separated Sons, the Holy Spirit interprets | everything you have made in the light of what He is. The ego |
| Tx:8.69 | the body are attitudes toward attack. The ego's definitions of | everything are childish and always based on what it believes a thing |
| Tx:8.75 | as such it will lose its true function. This is the purpose of | everything the ego does. Its sole aim is to lose sight of the |
| Tx:8.75 | the ego does. Its sole aim is to lose sight of the function of | everything. A sick body does not make any sense. It could not make |
| Tx:8.79 | His message through you. This will heal them and therefore heal you. | Everything used in accordance with its function as the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:8.79 | with its function as the Holy Spirit sees it cannot be sick. | Everything used otherwise is. Do not allow the body to be a mirror of |
| Tx:8.80 | We once said that the Holy Spirit is the Answer. He is the Answer to | everything, because He knows what the answer to everything is. The |
| Tx:8.80 | He is the Answer to everything, because He knows what the answer to | everything is. The ego does not know what a real question is, |
| Tx:8.81 | willing, which wants things to be as they are not. The reality of | everything is totally harmless, because total harmlessness is the |

| Tx:9.8 | how to see yourself without condemnation by learning how to look on | everything without it. Condemnation will then not be real to you, and |
| Tx:9.33 | this means? If what you do to my brother you do to me, and if you do | everything for yourself because we are part of you, everything we do |
| Tx:9.33 | and if you do everything for yourself because we are part of you, | everything we do belongs to you as well. Every Soul God created is |
| Tx:9.37 | one of them, you would not want anything the world has to offer. | Everything else would be totally meaningless. God's meaning is |
| Tx:9.40 | love you. It is unaware of what you are and wholly mistrustful of | everything it perceives, because its own perceptions are so shifting. |
| Tx:9.41 | do, because He never forgets what you are. The ego is deceived by | everything you do, even when you respond to the Holy Spirit, because |
| Tx:9.60 | to Him as you do, but nothing is added that is different, because | everything has always been. What can upset you except the ephemeral, |
| Tx:9.60 | creation, and He created you eternal? Your holy will establishes | everything that happens to you. Every response you make to everything |
| Tx:9.60 | everything that happens to you. Every response you make to | everything you perceive is up to you, because your will determines |
| Tx:9.61 | can reach you from beyond it because, being in God, you encompass | everything. Believe this, and you will realize how much is up to you. |
| Tx:9.64 | you love your creations as yourself because they are part of you. | Everything that was created is therefore perfectly safe, because the |
| Tx:9.65 | as long as you are asleep. Yet the instant you waken, you know that | everything that seemed to happen did not happen at all. You do not |
| Tx:9.67 | You will remember | everything the instant you desire it wholly, for if to desire wholly |
| Tx:9.69 | and of yourself for you, waiting for your acceptance. Give up gladly | everything that would stand in the way of your remembering, for God |
| Tx:9.70 | But signify your will to remember Him and behold! He will give you | everything but for the asking. |
| Tx:9.84 | this has nothing to do with reality, it is equally clear that it has | everything to do with reality as you perceive it. |
| Tx:9.88 | God work only for your good, and there are no other laws beside His. | Everything else is merely lawless and therefore chaotic. Yet God |
| Tx:9.88 | merely lawless and therefore chaotic. Yet God Himself has protected | everything He created by His laws. Therefore, everything that is not |
| Tx:9.88 | Himself has protected everything He created by His laws. Therefore, | everything that is not under them does not exist. “Laws of chaos” are |
| Tx:9.99 | and you will learn of Him if you hear aright. The love of God is in | everything He created, for His Son is everywhere. Look with peace |
| Tx:9.106 | of God will you have anything, because His fatherhood gave you | everything. That is why to deny Him is to deny yourself. Arrogance is |
| Tx:10.3 | light. There you will see that it rests on meaninglessness and that | everything of which you have been afraid was based on nothing. |
| Tx:10.4 | have looked upon ours. I come to you from our Father to offer you | everything again. Do not refuse it in order to keep a dark |
| Tx:10.10 | alone? God's Mind cannot be lessened. It can only be increased, and | everything He creates has the function of creating. Love does not |
| Tx:10.12 | not know what it is. The reason you must ask what God's Will is in | everything is merely because it is yours. You do not know what it is, |
| Tx:10.44 | and its purpose is always the natural extension of what it is. | Everything that stems from the ego is the natural outcome of its |
| Tx:10.53 | clearly the characteristically contradictory approach of the ego to | everything. Never forget that the ego believes that power, |
| Tx:10.53 | with the conviction that separation is salvation, the ego attacks | everything it perceives by breaking it up into small and disconnected |
| Tx:10.58 | of the reality of the kingdom you have chosen for your vigilance. | Everything you perceive is a witness to the thought system you want |
| Tx:10.64 | that it represents what you want to be. The freedom to leave behind | everything that hurts you and humbles you and frightens you cannot be |
| Tx:10.69 | the world is not as you see it. God created only the eternal, and | everything you see is perishable. Therefore, there must be another |
| Tx:10.71 | believing what you made to be capable of being unlike Him. Yet | everything in what you have made that is true is like Him. Only this |
| Tx:10.75 | And then | everything you made will be forgotten, the good and the bad, the |
| Tx:10.76 | willingness to learn of Him depends on your willingness to question | everything you have learned of yourself, for you who have learned |
| Tx:10.81 | what is yours and will take nothing in return. For what is yours is | everything, and you share it with God. This is its reality. Would the |
| Tx:11.3 | no effort at all on your part. Every loving thought is true. | Everything else is an appeal for healing and help. That is what it |
| Tx:11.10 | taught you to accept only loving thoughts in others and to regard | everything else as an appeal for help, He has taught you that fear is |
| Tx:11.23 | planned program aimed at learning how to offer to the Holy Spirit | everything you do not want. He knows what to do with it. You do not |
| Tx:11.30 | intolerable. Therefore the mind projects the split, not the reality. | Everything you perceive as the outside world is merely your attempt |
| Tx:11.32 | see the world of death. For death is not of the real world, in which | everything is eternal. God gave you the real world in exchange for |
| Tx:11.41 | and a very heavy one. If death is your treasure, you will sell | everything else to purchase it. And you will believe that you have |
| Tx:11.41 | you will believe that you have purchased it because you have sold | everything else. Yet you cannot sell the Kingdom of Heaven. Your |
| Tx:11.52 | end are in complete accord. You need offer only undivided attention. | Everything else will be given you. For it is your will to learn |
| Tx:11.59 | becomes generalized. Gradually you learn to apply it to everyone and | everything, for its applicability is universal. When this has been |
| Tx:11.60 | of God. For the real world has slipped quietly into Heaven, where | everything eternal in it has always been. There the Redeemer and the |
| Tx:11.73 | within, for you will see it without because you saw it first within. | Everything you behold without is a judgment of what you beheld |
| Tx:11.80 | every question you ask, and a Vision will correct the perception of | everything you see. For what you have made invisible is the only |
| Tx:11.82 | Everything you made has never been and is invisible because the Holy | |
| Tx:11.84 | it from the hand of Christ and look upon it. Its reality will make | everything else invisible, for beholding it is total perception. And |
| Tx:11.92 | time, where you must be because He is with you. He has always undone | everything unworthy of the Son of God, for such was His mission, |
| Tx:12.21 | In peace he needed nothing and asked for nothing. In war he demanded | everything and found nothing. For how could the gentleness of love |
| Tx:12.36 | go. And so they separate into their private worlds, where | everything is disordered and where what is within appears to be |
| Tx:12.50 | is before time was and will be when time is no more. In it is | everything that is eternal, and they are one. Their continuity is |
| Tx:12.55 | world is bright with love, which you have given it. And here will | everything remind you of your Father and His Holy Son. Light is |
| Tx:12.65 | him. He is as safe from pain as God Himself, Who watches over him in | everything. The world about him shines with love because God placed |
| Tx:12.69 | Everything that the ego tells you that you need will hurt you. For | |
| Tx:12.70 | from you as long as you have any need of it. And yet He knows that | everything you need is temporary and will but last until you step |
| Tx:13.1 | mean anything to it. It knows that it is everywhere, just as it has | everything, and forever. |
| Tx:13.2 | everywhere under His guidance, for the vision of Christ beholds | everything in light. Yet no perception, however holy, will last |
| Tx:13.3 | will replace aspects of unreality. Aspects of reality can be seen in | everything and everywhere. Yet only God can gather them together by |
| Tx:13.4 | of timelessness in time, and that is why Christ's vision looks on | everything with love. Yet even Christ's vision is not His reality. |
| Tx:13.14 | Atonement brings a re-evaluation of | everything you cherish, for it is the means by which the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.37 | or not. To value it partially is not to know its value. In Heaven is | everything God valued and nothing else. Heaven is perfectly |
| Tx:13.37 | God valued and nothing else. Heaven is perfectly unambiguous. | Everything is clear and bright and calls forth one response. There is |
| Tx:13.45 | The Holy Spirit cannot fail to undo for you | everything you have learned that teaches you what is not true must be |
| Tx:13.50 | direct your thoughts unto oblivion. And if you have and give and are | everything, and all this has been denied, your thought system is |
| Tx:13.51 | logic, there is One Who knows it leads to nothing, for He knows | everything. |
| Tx:13.58 | The truth is true. Nothing else matters, nothing else is real, and | everything beside it is not there. Let Me make the one distinction |
| Tx:13.60 | Learn to be happy learners. You will never learn how to make nothing | everything. Yet see that this has been your goal and recognize how |
| Tx:13.61 | If you would be a happy learner, you must give | everything that you have learned over to the Holy Spirit to be |
| Tx:13.63 | of Christ is given the very instant that it is perceived. Where | everything is clear, it is all holy. The quietness of its simplicity |
| Tx:13.63 | there is nothing else. God is everywhere, and His Son is in Him with | everything. Can he sing the dirge of sorrow when this is true? |
| Tx:13.75 | is all that you alone can offer yourself, when He Who gives you | everything will simply offer it to you? He will never ask what you |
| Tx:13.75 | Instead, accept His answer, for He knows that you are worthy of | everything God wills for you. Do not try to escape the gift of God |
| Tx:13.76 | His Son? Nothing can shake God's conviction of the perfect purity of | everything that He created, for it is wholly pure. Do not decide |
| Tx:13.76 | about what it is or where it lies, but ask of the Holy Spirit | everything and leave all decisions to His gentle counsel. |
| Tx:13.77 | your innocence, which sets you free. And it is His decision to undo | everything that would obscure your innocence from your unclouded mind. |
| Tx:13.81 | is yours because your Father would have you share it with Him. In | everything be led by Him and do not reconsider. Trust Him to answer |
| Tx:13.82 | Creator. Yet you remain in close communication with Him and with | everything that is within Him, as it is within yourself. Unlearn |
| Tx:14.4 | Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He knows what God is. | Everything else that you have placed within your mind cannot exist, |
| Tx:14.5 | and return quietly to Heaven. There is nothing of value here and | everything of value there. Listen to the Holy Spirit and to God |
| Tx:14.14 | you restore becomes your altar, for it was rebuilt through you. And | everything you give to God is yours. Thus He creates, and thus must |
| Tx:14.15 | into it by blessing him. Holiness must be shared, for therein lies | everything that makes it holy. Come gladly to the holy circle, and |
| Tx:14.18 | of love remains, for only this has meaning and can live in light. | Everything else must disappear. |
| Tx:14.22 | lead to unintelligibility. Yet if one means nothing and the other | everything, only that one is possible for purposes of communication. |
| Tx:14.24 | your mind, and they are reconciled by union, as you are. In union, | everything that is not real must disappear, for truth is union. As |
| Tx:14.25 | The search for truth is but the honest searching out of | everything that interferes with truth. Truth is. It can be neither |
| Tx:14.29 | Defenses, like | everything you made, must be gently turned to your own good, |
| Tx:14.31 | yours, comes not from double vision but from the gentle fusing of | everything into one meaning, one emotion, and one purpose. God has |
| Tx:14.33 | He shares it still, for you. | Everything that promises otherwise, great or small, however much or |
| Tx:14.36 | can change the knowledge given you by God into unknowingness. | Everything God created knows its Creator. For this is how creation is |
| Tx:14.40 | Merely by being what it is does truth release you from | everything that it is not. The Atonement is so gentle you need but |
| Tx:14.41 | Holiness by Which it was created.] The Presence of Holiness lives in | everything that lives, for Holiness created life and leaves not what |
| Tx:14.51 | The power of God is limitless. And being always maximal, it offers | everything to every call from anyone. There is no order of difficulty |
| Tx:14.52 | are much too confused either to recognize love or to believe that | everything else is nothing but a need for love. You are too bound to |
| Tx:14.56 | so you can understand them. God has no secret communications, for | everything of Him is perfectly open and freely accessible to all, |
| Tx:14.58 | so much between it and your awareness of it that you cannot use it. | Everything you have taught yourselves has made your power more and |
| Tx:14.60 | Atonement teaches you how to escape forever from | everything that you have taught yourselves in the past by showing you |
| Tx:14.64 | be concerned how you can learn a lesson so completely different from | everything you have taught yourselves. How would you know? Your part |
| Tx:14.64 | you know? Your part is very simple. You need only recognize that | everything you learned you do not want. Ask to be taught and do not |
| Tx:14.72 | always that they know nothing, but who have become willing to learn | everything, will learn it. But whenever they trust themselves, they |
| Tx:15.22 | You offered this in place of magnitude, and you accepted it. | Everything in this world is little because it is a world made out of |
| Tx:15.26 | His power. God is not willing that His Son be content with less than | everything. For He is not content without His Son, and His Son cannot |
| Tx:15.32 | content with nothing but His Will. Accept no less, remembering that | everything I learned is yours. What my Father loves, I love as He |
| Tx:15.40 | It therefore seeks to change nothing, but merely to accept | everything. |
| Tx:15.42 | I want to have perfect communication, and am I wholly willing to let | everything that interferes with it go forever?” If the answer is no, |
| Tx:15.65 | it asks nothing. Being wholly pure, everyone joined in it has | everything. This is not the basis for any relationship in which the |
| Tx:15.79 | far beyond time. For a teaching assignment such as His, He must use | everything in this world for your release. He must side with every |
| Tx:15.103 | This Christmas, give the Holy Spirit | everything that would hurt you. Let yourself be healed completely |
| Tx:15.108 | is nowhere and love is everywhere. For communication embraces | everything, and in the peace it re-establishes, love comes of itself. |
| Tx:16.8 | and not yours. He will not meet them secretly, for He would share | everything you give through Him. And that is why He gives it. |
| Tx:16.19 | Reality is safe and sure and wholly kind to everyone and | everything. There is no greater love than to accept this and be glad. |
| Tx:16.19 | and be glad. For love asks only that you be happy and will give you | everything that makes for happiness. You have never given any problem |
| Tx:16.24 | effect relationship that is perfectly apparent. Yet within you is | everything you taught. What can it be that has not learned it? It |
| Tx:16.31 | something else, and the symbol of love is without meaning if love is | everything. You will go through this last undoing quite unharmed and |
| Tx:16.31 | but its reality, which awaits you on the other side, will give you | everything. |
| Tx:16.38 | in the bleak world of illusion, where nothing is certain, and where | everything fails to satisfy. In the Name of God, be wholly willing to |
| Tx:16.45 | world is the opposite of Heaven, being made to be its opposite, and | everything here takes a direction exactly opposite of what is true. |
| Tx:16.64 | more than a transition in your perspective of reality. On this side, | everything you see is grossly distorted and completely out of |
| Tx:16.72 | It is completely savage and completely insane. For the ego remembers | everything that you have done which offended it and seeks retribution |
| Tx:16.75 | stillness and the peace of now enfolds you in perfect gentleness. | Everything is gone except the truth. |
| Tx:16.77 | reminder that His Son will always be exactly as he was created. And | everything the Holy Spirit teaches you is to remind you that you have |
| Tx:17.5 | which must imprison you. There is no order in reality because | everything there is true. |
| Tx:17.8 | not a fantasy. It is the real world, bright and clean and new with | everything sparkling under the open sun. Nothing is hidden here, for |
| Tx:17.8 | everything sparkling under the open sun. Nothing is hidden here, for | everything has been forgiven, and there are no fantasies to hide the |
| Tx:17.10 | Perception will be meaningless when it has been perfected, for | everything that has been used for learning will have no function. |
| Tx:17.30 | it to be healed. This blessing holds within itself the truth about | everything. And the truth is that the Holy Spirit is in close |
| Tx:17.42 | to the Father by giving Him ascendance in our minds. We will gain | everything by giving Him the power and the glory and keeping no |
| Tx:17.43 | is the expression of the holy instant in living in this world. Like | everything about salvation, the holy instant is a practical device, |
| Tx:17.60 | with the accomplishment of your objective and concentrate on | everything which helps you meet it. It is quite noticeable that this |
| Tx:18.2 | what God has joined and what the Holy Spirit sees as one. But | everything seems to come between the fragmented relationships the ego |
| Tx:18.4 | to death, was all you ever made. Your whole world rests upon it. | Everything you see reflects it, and every special relationship which |
| Tx:18.6 | is conceivable. Do you really think it strange that a world in which | everything is backwards and upside-down arose from this? [It was |
| Tx:18.9 | In your relationship, where He has taken charge of | everything at your request, He has set the course inward to the truth |
| Tx:18.16 | on awakening, you do not expect it to be gone. In dreams you arrange | everything. People become what you would have them be, and what they |
| Tx:18.31 | away the past and so make room for His eternal Presence, in which | everything is radiant in the light. |
| Tx:18.40 | Forget not that it has been your decision to make | everything that is natural and easy for you impossible. What you |
| Tx:18.40 | belief in orders of difficulty in miracles is centered on this. | Everything God wills is not only possible but has already happened. |
| Tx:18.56 | it has no limits, and there is nothing outside it. [It encompasses | everything.] It encompasses you entirely; you within it, and it |
| Tx:18.71 | Can you who see yourselves within a body know yourself as an idea? | Everything you recognize you identify with externals, something |
| Tx:18.75 | things but by no means totally dependent on their one Creator for | everything and needing the whole to give them any meaning, for by |
| Tx:18.78 | Love knows no bodies and reaches to | everything created like itself. Its total lack of limit is its |
| Tx:18.81 | love only what it offers everyone, neither less nor more. Asking for | everything, you will receive it. And your shining Self will lift the |
| Tx:18.87 | Everything these messages relay to you is quite external. There are | |
| Tx:18.93 | here you have forgiven everyone. Here is the new perception, where | everything is bright and shining with innocence, washed in the waters |
| Tx:18.96 | of you and yours of Him so far transcend all learning that | everything you learned is meaningless, replaced forever by the |
| Tx:19.22 | be said the ego made its world on sin. Only in such a world could | everything be upside-down. This is the strange illusion which makes |
| Tx:19.22 | in place by just this strange device. As truth it is inviolate, and | everything is brought to it for judgment. As a mistake, it must be |
| Tx:19.29 | must have been broken. Yet at the line, its wholeness is apparent. | Everything seen from the spiral is misperceived, but as you approach |
| Tx:19.47 | Its seeming stability is its pervasive weakness, which extends to | everything. The variability which the little remnant induces merely |
| Tx:19.88 | but must be sought in what they represent. And they may thus mean | everything or nothing, according to the truth or falsity of the idea |
| Tx:19.90 | you would remember your Father. The Creator of life, the Source of | everything that lives, the Father of the universe and of the universe |
| Tx:19.90 | the Father of the universe and of the universe of universes and of | everything that lies even beyond them would you remember. And as this |
| Tx:20.9 | but only lilies, gleaming in the gentle glow of peace that shines on | everything He looks upon and loves. |
| Tx:20.28 | Being without illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit merely gives | everything to God, Who has already given and received all that is |
| Tx:20.36 | before you reach it. You need take thought for nothing, careless of | everything except the only purpose that you would fulfill. As that |
| Tx:20.42 | nothing from it, and the future will add no more. Here, then, is | everything. Here is the loveliness of your relationship, with means |
| Tx:20.72 | Everything looked upon with vision falls gently into place according | |
| Tx:20.72 | to the laws brought to it by His calm and certain sight. The end for | everything He looks upon is always sure. For it will meet His |
| Tx:20.72 | sin, unable to overlook it in any form and seeing it everywhere, in | everything. Look through its eyes, and everything will stand |
| Tx:20.72 | and seeing it everywhere, in everything. Look through its eyes, and | everything will stand condemned before you. All that could save you, |
| Tx:21.1 | And that is why order of difficulty in miracles is meaningless. | Everything looked upon with vision is healed and holy. Nothing |
| Tx:21.6 | that or nothing. They hate the world they learned through pain. And | everything they think is in it serves to remind them that they are |
| Tx:21.10 | Beyond the body, beyond the sun and stars, past | everything you see and yet somehow familiar, is an arc of golden |
| Tx:21.10 | is in it is no longer contained at all. The light expands and covers | everything, extending to infinity, forever shining and with no break |
| Tx:21.10 | forever shining and with no break or limit anywhere. Within it | everything is joined in perfect continuity. Nor is it possible to |
| Tx:21.13 | the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit for which He gives you | everything; the very little on which salvation rests; the tiny change |
| Tx:21.15 | I experience, and I decided on the goal I would achieve. And | everything that seems to happen to me, I asked for and received as I |
| Tx:21.18 | it, and you keep the world as now you see it. Give it away, and | everything you see goes with it. Never was so much given for so |
| Tx:21.28 | “proves” otherwise, and you deny your whole reality. But grant that | everything which seems to stand between you, keeping you from each |
| Tx:21.87 | Sure in its vision as its Creator is in what He knows, it looks on | everything and sees it is the same. It sees not the ephemeral, for it |
| Tx:21.87 | sees it is the same. It sees not the ephemeral, for it desires that | everything be like itself and sees it so. Nothing has power to |
| Tx:22.9 | Your sight was given you, along with | everything that you can understand. You will perceive no difficulty |
| Tx:22.18 | way to the eternal. Only the timeless must remain unchanged, but | everything in time can change with time. Yet if the change be real |
| Tx:22.32 | it does not recognize and does not know if it is there or not. | Everything which the body's eyes can see is a mistake, an error in |
| Tx:22.33 | form of nothing. To this distorted form of vision, the outside of | everything, the wall that stands between you and the truth, is wholly |
| Tx:22.42 | from harm. And each will be the other's strong protector from | everything that seems to rise between you. So shall you walk the |
| Tx:22.45 | the strong ones in this seeming conflict. And you need no defense. | Everything that needs defense you do not want, for anything that |
| Tx:22.48 | sings as one? Which is the stronger? Is it this tiny mouse or | everything that God created? You are not joined together by this |
| Tx:22.56 | love all that He loves. And what you bring is your remembrance of | everything that is eternal. No trace of anything in time can long |
| Tx:23.2 | indeed becomes this war against yourself! You will believe that | everything you use for sin can hurt you and become your enemy. And |
| Tx:23.3 | they see is harmful, for their awareness of the truth releases | everything from the illusion of harmfulness. And what seemed harmful |
| Tx:23.6 | given you. In kind forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and | everything you once thought sinful now will be reinterpreted as part |
| Tx:23.16 | him. Illusions have no place where love abides, protecting you from | everything that is not true. You dwell in peace as limitless as its |
| Tx:23.16 | is not true. You dwell in peace as limitless as its Creator, and | everything is given those who would remember Him. Over His home the |
| Tx:23.55 | of battle. What could they gain but loss of their perfection? For | everything fought for on the battleground is of the body—something |
| Tx:23.55 | something it seems to offer or to own. No one who knows that he has | everything could seek for limitation, nor could he value the body's |
| Tx:23.55 | from the quiet sphere above the battleground. What can conflict with | everything? And what is there that offers less, yet could be wanted |
| Tx:24.2 | each decision you make. For a decision is a conclusion based on | everything that you believe. It is the outcome of belief and follows |
| Tx:24.3 | the smallest gift is not to know love's purpose. Love offers | everything forever. Hold back but one belief, one offering, and love |
| Tx:24.21 | Him, and your brother is like you. Not special, but possessed of | everything including you. |
| Tx:24.29 | is safe, resting on Him. It is your specialness that is attacked by | everything that walks and breathes or creeps or crawls or even lives |
| Tx:24.34 | in anyone except yourself. Faith is invested in yourself alone. | Everything else becomes your enemy—feared and attacked, deadly and |
| Tx:24.37 | and your treasure house barren and empty with an open door inviting | everything that would disturb your peace to enter and destroy. |
| Tx:24.53 | is made, not of itself, but through the Voice that speaks for God in | everything that lives and shares His Being. |
| Tx:24.54 | that eyes which see can look upon. It is His loveliness they see in | everything. And it is He they look for everywhere and find no sight |
| Tx:24.63 | alone. What is within your brother still contains all of creation, | everything created and creating, born and unborn as yet, still in the |
| Tx:24.67 | The test of | everything on earth is simply this: “What is it for?” The answer |
| Tx:25.43 | The grace of God rests gently on forgiving eyes, and | everything they look on speaks of Him to the beholder. He can see no |
| Tx:25.49 | be perfectly fulfilled in both of you. Do this one thing, that | everything be given you. |
| Tx:25.54 | to death and cruelty, to separation, and to differences. For here is | everything perceived as one, and no one loses that each one may gain. |
| Tx:25.55 | Test | everything that you believe against this one requirement. And |
| Tx:25.55 | that you believe against this one requirement. And understand that | everything that meets this one demand is worthy of your faith. But |
| Tx:25.73 | To him who merits | everything, how can it be that anything be kept from him? For that |
| Tx:25.76 | to both. Who would have more or less is not aware that he has | everything. He is no judge of what must be another's due, because he |
| Tx:25.86 | removed for you. And so they gather dust and grow until they cover | everything that you perceive and leave you fair to no one. Not one |
| Tx:26.3 | you alone. And for this little to belong to you are limits placed on | everything outside, just as they are on everything you think is |
| Tx:26.3 | to you are limits placed on everything outside, just as they are on | everything you think is yours. For giving and receiving are the same. |
| Tx:26.17 | He cannot be unjust to anyone or anything because He knows that | everything that is belongs to Him and will forever be as He created |
| Tx:26.18 | choosing be a necessary step in the advance toward oneness. What is | everything leaves room for nothing else. |
| Tx:26.19 | is every thought made pure and wholly simple. Here is sin denied and | everything that is received instead. |
| Tx:26.26 | of Heaven. There is no sadness, and there is no parting here, for | everything is totally forgiven. And what has been forgiven must join, |
| Tx:26.27 | What is Heaven but a song of gratitude and love and praise by | everything created to the Source of its creation? The holiest of |
| Tx:26.32 | mind, with no effect upon eternity. And so is all time passed and | everything exactly as it was before the way to nothingness was made. |
| Tx:26.37 | is a voice that calls out from a past forever more gone by. And | everything which points to it as real is but a wish that what is gone |
| Tx:26.38 | to see the past and put it in the present? You can not go back. And | everything that points the way in the direction of the past but sets |
| Tx:26.57 | What is the Will of God? He wills His Son have | everything. And this He guaranteed when He created him as everything. |
| Tx:26.57 | Son have everything. And this He guaranteed when He created him as | everything. It is impossible that anything be lost if what you have |
| Tx:26.58 | much but far too little. He would sacrifice his own identity with | everything to find a little treasure of his own. And this he cannot |
| Tx:26.61 | still demands that he must make some sacrifice and thus denies that | everything is his, unlimited by loss of any kind. A tiny sacrifice is |
| Tx:26.66 | will save them all, for what is one can have no specialness. And | everything belongs to each of them. No wishes lie between a brother |
| Tx:26.73 | they may not come, although already there? You have been told that | everything brings good that comes from God. And yet it seems as if |
| Tx:26.87 | not yourself. Projection of the cause of sacrifice is at the root of | everything perceived to be unfair and not your just deserts. Yet it |
| Tx:27.5 | you have sent your brother you have looked upon in grief. And | everything that it has shown to him have you believed because it |
| Tx:27.16 | you will believe. The power of witness comes from your belief. And | everything you say or do or think but testifies to what you teach to |
| Tx:27.32 | Nothing points beyond the truth, for what can stand for more than | everything? Yet true undoing must be kind. And so the first |
| Tx:27.49 | Thus is your healing | everything the world requires that it may be healed. It needs one |
| Tx:27.68 | Once you were unaware of what the cause of | everything the world appeared to thrust upon you, uninvited and |
| Tx:28.18 | because of what he is. The cause of healing is the only Cause of | everything. It has but one effect. And in that recognition, |
| Tx:28.66 | upon your brother's health, upon his happiness, his sinlessness, and | everything his Father promised him. No secret promise you have made |
| Tx:29.14 | You do not see how much you now can give because of | everything you have received. Yet He Who entered in but waits for you |
| Tx:29.19 | love, or look upon it as a thing you hate. For if He be the sum of | everything, then what is not in Him does not exist, and His |
| Tx:29.44 | outside of himself that will bring happiness and peace to him. If | everything is in him, this cannot be so. And therefore by his coming, |
| Tx:29.44 | he denies the truth about himself and seeks for something more than | everything, as if a part of it were separated off and found where all |
| Tx:29.58 | be except His Will. Nothing and nowhere must an idol be while God is | everything and everywhere. |
| Tx:29.64 | to move about and talk and think and feel and speak for them. Yet | everything their toys appear to do is in the minds of those who play |
| Tx:30.33 | Kingdom up alone. And Heaven itself but represents your will, where | everything created is for you. No spark of life but was created with |
| Tx:30.35 | birth. Remember He Who has created you and through your will created | everything. Not one created thing but gives you thanks, for it is by |
| Tx:30.38 | limiting, is all attained. It is as if you said, “I have no need of | everything. This little thing I want, and it will be as everything to |
| Tx:30.38 | no need of everything. This little thing I want, and it will be as | everything to me.” And this must fail to satisfy because it is your |
| Tx:30.38 | to me.” And this must fail to satisfy because it is your will that | everything be yours. Decide for idols, and you ask for loss. Decide |
| Tx:30.38 | yours. Decide for idols, and you ask for loss. Decide for truth, and | everything is yours. |
| Tx:30.60 | prepared to be himself, and to remember that the Son of God knows | everything his Father understands and understands it perfectly with |
| Tx:30.64 | when you have recognized Whose hand you hold! Within your hand is | everything you need to walk with perfect confidence away from fear |
| Tx:30.85 | here. In this shared purpose is one [meaning] shared by everyone and | everything you see. You do not have to judge, for you have learned |
| Tx:30.85 | not have to judge, for you have learned one meaning has been given | everything, and you are glad to see it everywhere. It cannot change |
| Tx:30.86 | And nothing in the world can be opposed to it, for it belongs to | everything as it belongs to you. In single purpose is the end of all |
| Tx:30.89 | and if you fail to see beyond appearances, you are deceived. For | everything you see will change, and yet you thought it real before, |
| Tx:31.8 | that God's Son is guiltless is a world in which there is no fear and | everything is lit with hope and sparkles with a gentle friendliness. |
| Tx:31.8 | was made. And you will understand it was this call that everyone and | everything within the world has always made, but you had not |
| Tx:31.20 | Then let us wait an instant and be still, forgetting | everything we thought we heard; remembering how much we do not know. |
| Tx:31.26 | be overlearned. It must become a habit of response so typical of | everything you do that it becomes your first response to all |
| Tx:31.56 | different thoughts have different consequence. So it can learn that | everything it thinks reflects the deep confusion that it feels about |
| Tx:31.74 | so that you behold nothing with clarity. The light is kept from | everything you see. At most, you glimpse a shadow of what lies |
| Tx:31.86 | given it no power. And the light of Christ in you is given charge of | everything you do. For you have brought your weakness unto Him, and |
| Tx:31.87 | alone in dreams of hell, but would release your minds from | everything that hides His face from you. His holiness is yours |
| Tx:31.97 | it has. Clear in Your Likeness does the Light shine forth from | everything that lives and moves in You. For we have reached where all |
| W1:I.3 | of these exercises is to train the mind to a different perception of | everything in the world. The workbook is divided into two sections, |
| W1:I.4 | one applies to every situation in which you find yourself and to | everything you see in it. Each day's exercises are planned around one |
| W1:I.4 | exercises will always be to increase the application of the idea to | everything. This will not require effort. Only be sure that you make |
| W1:1.5 | day, use it totally indiscriminately. Do not attempt to apply it to | everything you see, for these exercises should not become |
| W1:2.1 | concentrate on anything in particular, and do not attempt to include | everything in an area or you will introduce strain. Merely glance |
| W1:7.3 | It is the reason why you have given | everything you see all the meaning that it has for you. |
| W1:7.8 | Old ideas about time are very difficult to change because | everything you believe is rooted in time and depends on your not |
| W1:14.1 | world is impossible. What God did not create does not exist. And | everything that does exist exists as He created it. The world you see |
| W1:16.1 | step in dispelling the belief that your thoughts have no effect. | Everything you see is the result of your thoughts. There is no |
| W1:22.2 | to find that you can escape? You made what you would destroy— | everything that you hate and would attack and kill. All that you fear |
| W1:23.1 | only way out of fear that will ever succeed. Nothing else will work; | everything else is meaningless. But this way cannot fail. Every |
| W1:23.3 | The world you see is a vengeful world, and | everything in it is a symbol of vengeance. Each of your perceptions |
| W1:23.4 | see when its cause is gone? Vision already holds a replacement for | everything you think you see now. Loveliness can light your images |
| W1:25.1 | You do not know what it is for. Therefore it is meaningless to you. | Everything is for your own best interests. That is what it is for; |
| W1:25.2 | You perceive the world and | everything in it as meaningful in terms of ego goals. These goals |
| W1:25.5 | learning to be willing to give up the goals you have established for | everything. The recognition that they are meaningless, rather than |
| W1:30.3 | looking about you and trying to realize that the idea applies to | everything you do see now or could see now if it were within the |
| W1:37.1 | because it offers everyone his full due. And he is entitled to | everything because it is his birthright as a Son of God. |
| W1:38.2 | it is equal in its power to save anyone. If you are holy, so is | everything God created. You are holy because all things He created |
| W1:41.2 | despite the serious and tragic forms it may take. Deep within you is | everything that is perfect, ready to radiate through you and out into |
| W1:44.5 | is very simple. While you practice in this form, you leave behind | everything that you now believe and all the thoughts which you have |
| W1:45.10 | Everything that you have thought since then will change, but the | |
| W1:50.1 | and throughout time. In this world, you believe you are sustained by | everything but God. Your faith is placed in the most trivial and |
| W1:51.3 | I have given what I see all the meaning it has for me. I have judged | everything I look upon. And it is this and only this that I see. This |
| W1:51.6 | attacks are warranted. I have not realized how much I have misused | everything I see by assigning this role to it. I have done this to |
| W1:52.3 | look upon. I call this seeing. I hold the past against everyone and | everything, making them my “enemies.” When I have forgiven myself and |
| W1:52.3 | forgiven myself and remembered who I am, I will bless everyone and | everything I see. There will be no past and therefore no “enemies.” |
| W1:53.5 | exist if God did not create it? He is the Source of all meaning, and | everything that is real is in His Mind. It is in my mind too because |
| W1:54.4 | of nothing. I can also call upon my real thoughts, which share | everything with everybody. As my thoughts of separation call to the |
| W1:54.5 | in experiencing the effects of my thoughts. I am alone in nothing. | Everything I think or say or do touches all the universe. A Son of |
| W1:55.3 | the representation of loving thoughts. It is a picture of attack on | everything by everything. It is anything but a reflection of the Love |
| W1:55.3 | of loving thoughts. It is a picture of attack on everything by | everything. It is anything but a reflection of the Love of God and |
| W1:55.6 | [25] I do not know what anything is for. To me, the purpose of | everything is to prove that my illusions about myself are real. It is |
| W1:55.6 | are real. It is for that purpose that I attempt to use everyone and | everything. It is this that I believe the world is for. Therefore I |
| W1:56.5 | [29] God is in | everything I see. Behind every image I have made, the truth remains |
| W1:56.5 | united with the Will of my Father. God is still everywhere and in | everything forever. And we who are part of Him will yet look past all |
| W1:56.6 | [30] God is in | everything I see because God is in my mind. In my own mind, behind |
| W1:57.4 | I ascribed to it, there must be another way of looking at it. I see | everything upside down, and my thoughts are the opposite of truth. I |
| W1:58.2 | [36] My holiness envelops | everything I see. From my holiness does the perception of the real |
| W1:58.3 | The perception of my holiness does not bless me alone. Everyone and | everything I see in its light shares in the joy it brings to me. |
| W1:60.4 | will not look anything like what I imagine I see now. Everyone and | everything I see will lean toward me to bless me. I will recognize in |
| W1:67.8 | your Father and of your Self. This is the Voice of truth replacing | everything that the ego tells you about yourself with the simple |
| W1:68.9 | trying to think of yourself as completely at peace with everyone and | everything, safe in a world which protects you and loves you and |
| W1:71.3 | that is necessary for salvation is thus demanded of everyone and | everything except yourself. |
| W1:76.6 | needs repeating over and over until you realize that it applies to | everything that you have made in opposition to His Will. Your magic |
| W1:85.5 | and then brought in. But from within me it will reach beyond, and | everything I see will but reflect the light that shines in me and in |
| W1:92.7 | size. It fears and it attacks and hates itself, and darkness covers | everything it sees, leaving its dreams as fearful as itself. No |
| W1:98.2 | has come. We have a mighty purpose to fulfill and have been given | everything we need with which to reach the goal. Not one mistake |
| W1:98.6 | time has no meaning, you are being asked for nothing in return for | everything. Here is a bargain that you cannot lose. And what you gain |
| W1:101.3 | real. Salvation must be feared, for it will kill but slowly, taking | everything away before it grants the welcome boon of death to victims |
| W1:102.2 | purchase anything at all. It offers nothing and does not exist. And | everything you think it offers you is lacking in existence like |
| W1:105.5 | adds by letting what cannot contain itself fulfill its aim of giving | everything it has away, securing it forever for itself. |
| W1:106.7 | what you received. Thus does salvation start and thus it ends; when | everything is yours, and everything is given away, it will remain |
| W1:106.7 | does salvation start and thus it ends; when everything is yours, and | everything is given away, it will remain with you forever. And the |
| W1:109.2 | vision sees beyond appearances to that same truth in everyone and | everything there is. Here is the end of suffering for all the world |
| W1:R3.4 | to them. They gave you nothing. But your practicing can offer | everything to you. And so accept its offering and be at peace. |
| W1:R3.11 | to help you form the habit of applying what you learn each day to | everything you do. |
| W1:122.4 | Why would you seek an answer other than the answer that will answer | everything? Here is the perfect answer, given to imperfect questions, |
| W1:122.12 | for us since time began, kept waiting for today. Forgiveness offers | everything you want. Today all things you want are given you. |
| W1:122.15 | Forgiveness offers | everything I want. Today I have accepted this as true. Today I have |
| W1:123.8 | to you. Remember hourly to think of Him and give Him thanks for | everything He gave His Son that he might rise above the world |
| W1:124.1 | available to us in all our undertakings. We can fail in nothing. | Everything we touch takes on a shining light which blesses and which |
| W1:124.2 | How holy are our minds! And | everything we see reflects the holiness within the mind at one with |
| W1:125.7 | your heart to you. His Voice is closer than your hand. His Love is | everything you are and that He is—the same as you, and you the same |
| W1:127.3 | is a law without an opposite. Its wholeness is the power holding | everything as one, the link between the Father and the Son which |
| W1:127.4 | you are is what He is. There is no love but His, and what He is, is | everything there is. There is no limit placed upon Himself, and so |
| W1:128.2 | binds you to the world, and it will serve no other end but this. For | everything must serve the purpose you have given it until you see a |
| W1:130.4 | Fear has made | everything you think you see. All separation, all distinctions, and |
| W1:130.6 | a piece because it stems from one emotion and reflects its source in | everything you see. |
| W1:130.12 | still remains within your range of choice to take the place of | everything that hell would show to you. All you need say to any part |
| W1:131.4 | remembered, old yet new—an echo of a heritage forgot, yet holding | everything you really want. |
| W1:131.6 | His perfect, timeless, and unchanging Love. You will find Heaven. | Everything you seek but this will fall away, yet not because it has |
| W1:133.6 | a little, for there is no in-between. Each choice you make brings | everything to you or nothing. Therefore, if you learn the tests by |
| W1:133.6 | Therefore, if you learn the tests by which you can distinguish | everything from nothing, you will make the better choice. |
| W1:133.8 | will have nothing left. This is because when you deny his right to | everything, you have denied your own. You therefore will not |
| W1:133.14 | by empty hands and open minds, which come with nothing to find | everything and claim it as their own. We will attempt to reach this |
| W1:134.2 | is true. It must be limited to what is false. It is irrelevant to | everything except illusions. Truth is God's creation, and to pardon |
| W1:134.21 | In | everything you do, remember this: |
| W1:135.14 | service for a little while. In this capacity is health assured. For | everything the mind employs for this will function flawlessly and |
| W1:135.17 | choice of what will happen. And it does not see that here and now is | everything it needs to guarantee a future quite unlike the past |
| W1:135.19 | What could you not accept if you but knew that | everything that happens, all events, past, present, and to come, are |
| W1:135.22 | for this is part of what was planned for us. We will be sure that | everything we need is given us for our accomplishment of this today. |
| W1:137.10 | your own as you extend the little help He asks in freeing you from | everything that ever caused you pain. And as you let yourself be |
| W1:137.13 | this? Is not a little time a small expense to offer for the gift of | everything? |
| W1:141.2 | [122] Forgiveness offers | everything I want. |
| W1:151.10 | Let Him be judge as well of | everything that seems to happen to you in this world. His lessons |
| W1:151.12 | for unholiness, within the Holy, holy as Itself. In everyone and | everything, His Voice would speak to you of nothing but your Self and |
| W1:151.12 | Who is one with Him. So will you see the holy face of Christ in | everything and hear in everything no sound except the echo of God's |
| W1:151.12 | So will you see the holy face of Christ in everything and hear in | everything no sound except the echo of God's Voice. |
| W1:152.2 | to be true. Yet can truth have exceptions? If you have the gift of | everything, can loss be real? Can pain be part of peace, or grief of |
| W1:154.3 | the strength to understand it, do what it entails, and to succeed in | everything you do that is related to it. God has joined His Son in |
| W1:155.12 | love, and of your full intent? What way could give you more than | everything or offer less and still content the holy Son of God? We |
| W1:156.3 | be holiness as well as life. No attribute of His remains unshared by | everything that lives. What lives is holy as Himself because what |
| W1:157.9 | Into Christ's Presence will we enter now, serenely unaware of | everything except His shining face and perfect Love. The vision of |
| W1:159.6 | treasure house to which you can appeal with perfect certainty for | everything that can contribute to your happiness. All are laid here |
| W1:161.2 | of the mind. But part of it is now unnatural. It does not look on | everything as one. It sees instead but fragments of the whole, for |
| W1:161.3 | us from a different point of view, so we can see a different use in | everything. |
| W1:161.7 | Voice proclaims there is no death. Fear is insatiable, consuming | everything its eyes behold, seeing itself in everything, compelled to |
| W1:161.7 | insatiable, consuming everything its eyes behold, seeing itself in | everything, compelled to turn upon itself and to destroy. |
| W1:163.9 | would look upon the glorious reflection of Your love which shines in | everything. We live and breathe in You alone. We are not separate |
| W1:165.2 | It you live. It is your Source of life, holding you one with It, and | everything is one with you because It left you not. The Thought of |
| W1:166.5 | alone though God is with him, and a treasure his so great that | everything the world contains is valueless before its magnitude. |
| W1:168.4 | instant longer? What remains undone when your forgiveness rests on | everything? |
| W1:169.2 | hate and fear are gone, for grace presents a state so opposite to | everything the world contains that those whose minds are lighted by |
| W1:183.7 | wish we have, the only sound with any meaning, and the only name of | everything that we desire to see; of everything that we would call |
| W1:183.7 | meaning, and the only name of everything that we desire to see; of | everything that we would call our own. |
| W1:184.1 | You live by symbols. You have made up names for | everything you see. Each one becomes a separate entity, identified by |
| W1:185.1 | To say these words is nothing. But to mean these words is | everything. If you could but mean them for just an instant, there |
| W1:186.12 | image of yourself, confused, bewildered, inconsistent and unsure of | everything? Let not its voice direct you. Hear instead a certain |
| W1:186.13 | He is complete; a gift to you, although He knows that you have | everything already. He has thoughts which answer every need His Son |
| W1:187.11 | we look upon. And to ensure this holy sight is ours, we offer it to | everything we see. For where we see it, it will be returned to us in |
| W1:189.3 | one is wholly meaningless. A world in which forgiveness shines on | everything and peace offers its gentle light to everyone is |
| W1:189.7 | the world, all images you hold about yourself. Empty your mind of | everything it thinks is either true or false or good or bad, of every |
| W1:191.4 | else but this one thing is folly to believe. In this one thought is | everything set free. In this one truth are all illusions gone. In |
| W1:191.4 | In this one fact is sinlessness proclaimed to be forever part of | everything, the central core of its existence, and its guarantee of |
| W1:191.9 | And in that thought is | everything you look on wholly changed. |
| W1:192.7 | are one and therefore give up nothing. But we have indeed been given | everything by God. Yet do we need forgiveness to perceive that this |
| W1:193.10 | words in full awareness, and do not forget these words apply to | everything you see or any brother looks upon amiss. |
| W1:193.17 | cast its shadow on the one that follows, and when that one goes, let | everything that happens in its course go with it. Thus will you |
| W1:193.17 | is the lesson God would have you learn: there is a way to look on | everything that lets it be to you another step to Him and to |
| W1:195.8 | is complete, you will have total gratitude, for you will see that | everything has earned the right to love by being loving, even as your |
| W1:195.9 | gratitude in place of anger, malice, and revenge. We have been given | everything. If we refuse to recognize it, we are not entitled |
| W1:198.13 | that can be perceived an instant longer. Then are symbols done and | everything you ever thought you made completely vanished from the |
| W1:198.14 | He needs no thoughts of mercy. Who could give him gifts when | everything is his? And who could dream of offering forgiveness to the |
| W1:198.15 | Today we come still nearer to the end of | everything that yet would stand between this vision and our sight. |
| W1:R6.5 | day, no form of exercise is urged except a deep relinquishment of | everything that clutters up the mind and makes it deaf to reason, |
| W1:205.1 | [185] I want the peace of God. The peace of God is | everything I want. The peace of God is my one goal; the aim of all my |
| W1:209.1 | me now. The Love of God is what created me. The Love of God is | everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love |
| W2:WIW.3 | but a solid base where truth exists, upheld apart from lies. Yet | everything that they report is but illusion, which is kept apart from |
| W2:242.2 | by us. You know all our desires and our needs. And You will give us | everything we want and that will help us find the way to You. |
| W2:251.1 | all hopes are finally fulfilled, and dreams are gone. Now have I | everything that I could need. Now have I everything that I could |
| W2:251.1 | dreams are gone. Now have I everything that I could need. Now have I | everything that I could want. And now at last I find myself at peace. |
| W2:259.2 | its opposite. For love can have no opposite. You are the Source of | everything that is. And everything that is remains with You and You |
| W2:259.2 | can have no opposite. You are the Source of everything that is. And | everything that is remains with You and You with it. |
| W2:283.1 | Heaven infinite? Is not Your Son my true Identity, when You created | everything that is? |
| W2:283.2 | one in shared Identity, with God our Father as our only Source and | everything created part of us. And so we offer blessing to all |
| W2:286.1 | already made. In You has every conflict been resolved. In You is | everything I hope to find already given me. Your peace is mine. My |
| W2:292.1 | And He guarantees that only joy can be the final outcome found for | everything. Yet it is up to us when this is reached—how long we let |
| W2:297.1 | is the only gift I give because it is the only gift I want, and | everything I give I give myself. This is salvation's simple formula. |
| W2:298.2 | am grateful for Your holy gifts of certain sanctuary and escape from | everything that would obscure my love for God, my Father, and His |
| W2:339.2 | a day in which I would do nothing by myself but hear Your Voice in | everything I do; requesting only what You offer me, accepting only |
| W2:343.1 | The end of suffering cannot be loss. The gift of | everything can but be gain. You only give. You never take away. And |
| W2:343.1 | because I am Your Son. I cannot lose, for I can only give. And | everything is mine eternally. |
| W2:348.2 | God's grace suffices us in | everything that He would have us do. And only that we choose to be |
| W2:E.6 | to Him. In confidence we wait His answers, as we ask His Will in | everything we do. He loves God's Son as we would love him, and He |
| M:2.4 | too, made an inevitable choice out of an ancient past. God's Will in | everything but seems to take time in the working-out. What could |
| M:4.20 | The time will be as right as is the answer. And this is true for | everything that happens now or in the future. The past as well held |
| M:6.4 | Given by God to God, who in this holy exchange can receive less than | everything? |
| M:10.3 | in advance all the effects of his judgments on everyone and | everything involved in them in any way. And one would have to be |
| M:10.4 | come. He does know all the effects of His judgment on everyone and | everything involved in any way. And He is wholly fair to everyone, |
| M:12.2 | a change; it is a change of mind. Nothing external alters, but | everything internal now reflects only the Love of God. God can no |
| M:13.4 | Love. Who in his sane mind chooses nothing as a substitute for | everything? |
| M:13.8 | decision you make must mean in terms of cost. Decide for God, and | everything is given you at no cost at all. Decide against Him, and |
| M:13.8 | Him, and you choose nothing at the expense of the awareness of | everything. What would you teach? Remember only what you would learn. |
| M:16.11 | but God's.” His teachers know that this is so and have learned that | everything but this is magic. All belief in magic is maintained by |
| M:17.9 | not exist. The fear of God is causeless. But His love is Cause of | everything beyond all fear and thus forever real and always true. |
| M:20.2 | contrast first perceived has merely gone. Quiet has reached to cover | everything. |
| M:20.5 | death ends life. Forgive the world, and you will understand that | everything which God created cannot have an end, and nothing He did |

| W1:66.8 | is necessary to define God as something He is not. Love cannot give | evil, and what is not happiness is evil. God cannot give what He does |
| W1:66.8 | He is not. Love cannot give evil, and what is not happiness is | evil. God cannot give what He does not have, and He cannot have what |
| W1:66.8 | have what He is not. Unless God gives you only happiness, He must be | evil. And it is this definition of Him which you are believing if you |
| W1:93.1 | You think you are the home of | evil, darkness, and sin. You think if anyone could see the truth |
| W1:93.4 | Why would you not be overjoyed to be assured that all the | evil that you think you did was never done, that all your “sins” are |
| W1:93.6 | it nor can change what God created as eternal. The self you made, | evil and full of sin, is meaningless. Your sinlessness is guaranteed |
| W1:93.7 | you are as God created you, not what you made of yourself. Whatever | evil you may think you did, you are as God created you. Whatever |
| W1:93.11 | God created as you by hiding its majesty behind the tiny idols of | evil and sinfulness you have made to replace it. Let it come into its |
| W1:96.1 | you are One Self, you experience yourself as two—as both good and | evil, loving and hating, mind and body. This sense of being split |
| W1:96.3 | are set. Two selves in conflict could not be resolved, and good and | evil have no meeting place. The self you made can never be your Self, |
| W1:110.1 | the universe so that what God created was replaced by fear and | evil, misery and death. |
| W1:110.2 | If you remain as God created you, fear has no meaning, | evil is not real, and misery and death do not exist. Today's idea is |

| W1:190.8 | Pain is the thought of | evil taking form and working havoc in your holy mind. Pain is the |
| W1:191.3 | the legions of your enemies. Deny your own Identity and look on | evil, sin, and death. And watch despair snatch from your fingers |
| W1:194.8 | memory of Him to come again, replacing all your thoughts of sin and | evil with the truth of love. Think you the world could fail to gain |
| W1:200.6 | serve a mighty function. Is not the escape of God's beloved Son from | evil dreams that he imagines, yet believes are true, a worthy |

| W2:WIS.3 | “proof” that what has no reality is real. Sin “proves” God's Son is | evil; timelessness must have an end; eternal life must die. And God |

| M:4.15 | teachers lies in their gentleness, for they have understood their | evil thoughts came neither from God's Son nor his Creator. Thus did |

| M:14.1 | excluding no one, limitless in gentleness, will cover it, hiding all | evil, concealing all sin, and ending guilt forever. So ends the world |
| M:28.6 | to welcome them with joy. As long as any mind remains possessed of | evil dreams, the thought of hell is real. God's teachers have the |

| Tx:7.48 | by this can you learn that it is changeless. When you heal that is | exactly what you are learning. You are recognizing the changeless |

| Tx:8.86 | begun to realize that this is a very practical course which means | exactly what it says. So does the Bible, if it is properly |
| Tx:8.88 | quite literally, there can be nothing which prevents you from doing | exactly what I ask, and everything which argues for your doing it. I |
| Tx:9.15 | ego will attack anyone and anything for no reason at all. This is | exactly what the ego does. It is totally unpredictable in its |
| Tx:9.28 | fulfill His function. He needs no help for this. He will tell you | exactly what to do to help anyone He sends to you for help and will |
| Tx:9.78 | idol, made in the image of what its maker thinks he is. And that is | exactly what the ego does perceive in a Son of God; a sick god, |
| Tx:10.34 | harbor it within. It is difficult at first to realize that this is | exactly the same thing, for there is no distinction between within |
| Tx:10.41 | that the term itself does not mean anything. In fact, it contains | exactly the contradiction in terms which makes it meaningless. |
| Tx:11.4 | is nothing to prevent you from recognizing all calls for help as | exactly what they are except your own perceived need to attack. It is |
| Tx:11.37 | deny the ego's existence, and you will surely do so when you realize | exactly what the journey is on which the ego sets you. |
| Tx:13.47 | except that His conclusions are not insane. They take a direction | exactly opposite, pointing as clearly to Heaven as the ego points to |
| Tx:13.64 | motivation, and the interference in your motivation for learning is | exactly the same as that which interferes with all your thinking. The |
| Tx:14.51 | The miracle offers | exactly the same response to every call for help. It does not judge |
| Tx:15.53 | God knows you now. He remembers nothing, having always known you | exactly as He knows you now. The holy instant parallels His knowing |
| Tx:15.86 | process of looking straight at all the interference and seeing it | exactly as it is. For it is impossible to recognize as wholly without |
| Tx:16.36 | could this be done? It is essential that we look very closely at | exactly what it is you think you can do to solve the dilemma, which |
| Tx:16.45 | being made to be its opposite, and everything here takes a direction | exactly opposite of what is true. In Heaven, where the meaning of |
| Tx:16.53 | from truth, triumphing over it and leaving it helpless. See how | exactly is this ritual enacted in the special relationship. An altar |
| Tx:16.77 | In the holy instant is His reminder that His Son will always be | exactly as he was created. And everything the Holy Spirit teaches you |
| Tx:18.1 | To substitute is to accept instead. If you would but consider | exactly what this entails, you would perceive at once how much at |
| Tx:21.64 | a hope of safe return. You teach him this, and you will learn of him | exactly what you taught. For you can teach him only that he is as you |
| Tx:25.2 | son of man is not the risen Christ. Yet does the Son of God abide | exactly where he is and walks with him within his holiness, as plain |
| Tx:26.32 | no effect upon eternity. And so is all time passed and everything | exactly as it was before the way to nothingness was made. The tiny |
| Tx:27.64 | suffer from is your attack.” No one who looks upon this “reasoning” | exactly as it is could fail to see it does not follow, and it makes |
| Tx:27.70 | you, then you must see the causes of the things you choose between | exactly as they are and where they are. What choices can be made |
| Tx:27.83 | at its beginning, ending at its cause. The world you see depicts | exactly what you thought you did. Except that now you think that what |

| Tx:30.44 | of you is perfectly unchanged by your forgetting. It will always be | exactly as it was before the time when you forgot and will be just |
| Tx:30.47 | can take; quite undisturbed, the Thought God holds of you remains | exactly as it always was. Surrounded by a stillness so complete no |
| Tx:31.1 | you perceive no differences in false and true. You have been told | exactly how to tell one from the other and just what to do if you |
| Tx:31.51 | you behave as if it were. Does he react for you? And did he know | exactly what would happen? Could he see your future and ordain before |
| Tx:31.59 | Where concepts of the self have been laid by is truth revealed | exactly as it is. When every concept has been raised to doubt and |

| W1:132.5 | waiting for your thoughts to give it meaning. Yet in truth you found | exactly what you looked for when you came. There is no world apart |

| W2:E.5 | and the means as well. To this we say “Amen.” We will be told | exactly what God wills for us each time there is a choice to make. |

| Tx:1.96 | it aims to correct. Only man makes this kind of mistake. It is an | example of the foolish consistency which his own false beliefs have |
| Tx:2.88 | as you will. Many of your ordinary expressions reflect this. For | example, when you say, “Don't give it a thought,” you imply that if |
| Tx:2.89 | illustrate the prevailing lack of awareness of thought-power. For | example, you say, “Just an idle thought,” and mean that the thought |

| Tx:5.83 | in the Bible and also in this course under many different terms. For | example, “God will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed (or |

| Tx:6.9 | of my own teaching contribution. You are merely asked to follow my | example in the face of much less extreme temptations to misperceive |
| Tx:6.14 | use my experiences constructively, however, you must still follow my | example in how to perceive them. |
| Tx:7.22 | which was applied to the learning. You could not have a better | example of the Holy Spirit's unified purpose than this course. The |
| Tx:8.77 | device can tell you how you feel. Sickness is merely another | example of your insistence on asking the guidance of a teacher who |

| W1:29.5 | should therefore be as free of self-selection as possible. For | example, a suitable list might include: |
| W1:36.3 | specifically to whatever you note in your casual survey. Say, for | example: |
| W1:38.6 | and add some relevant thoughts of your own. You might like, for | example, to include thoughts such as: |

| W1:46.10 | but the central idea should not be lost sight of. You might say, for | example: |
| W1:76.8 | of “laws” we have believed we must obey. These would include, for | example, the laws of nutrition, of immunization, of medication, and |

| Tx:17.16 | Without exception, these relationships have as their purpose the | exclusion of the truth about the other and of yourself. This is why |
| Tx:17.74 | every aspect of the situation, and faithlessness has not forced any | exclusion on it. It is a situation of perfect peace simply because |

| W1:4.5 | a tendency to become pointlessly preoccupied. Further, since these | exercises are the first of their kind, you may find the suspension of |
| W1:4.5 | connection with thoughts particularly difficult. Do not repeat these | exercises more than three or four times during the day. We will |
| W1:5.1 | form does not matter, each form becomes a proper subject for the | exercises for the day. Applying the same idea to each of them |
| W1:5.5 | In these | exercises, more than in the preceding ones, you may find it hard to |
| W1:5.5 | weight to some subjects than to others. It might help to precede the | exercises with the statement: |
| W1:5.9 | this form of upset and let the others go. For the purposes of these | exercises, then, I will regard them all as the same. |
| W1:6.1 | The | exercises with this idea are very similar to the preceding ones. |
| W1:6.7 | this form of upset and let the others go. For the purposes of these | exercises, then, I will regard them all as the same. |
| W1:8.3 | The purpose of the | exercises for today is to begin to train your mind to recognize when |
| W1:8.4 | The | exercises for today should be done with eyes closed. This is because |
| W1:9.1 | not understand is a prerequisite for undoing your false ideas. These | exercises are concerned with practice, not with understanding. You do |
| W1:9.2 | applying it. No more than that is required for these or any other | exercises. Each little step will clear a little of the darkness away, |
| W1:9.3 | These | exercises, for which three or four practice periods are sufficient, |
| W1:10.4 | Close your eyes for these | exercises and introduce them by repeating the idea for today quite |
| W1:10.6 | The | exercises consist, as before, in searching your mind for all the |
| W1:11.3 | To do these | exercises for maximum benefit, the eyes should move from one thing to |
| W1:11.3 | freedom from worry that we are trying to achieve. On concluding the | exercises, close your eyes and repeat the idea once more, slowly, to |
| W1:12.2 | These | exercises are done with eyes open. Look around you, this time quite |
| W1:12.5 | may not yet understand why these “nice” adjectives belong in these | exercises, but remember that a “good world” implies a “bad” one, and |
| W1:12.5 | All terms which cross your mind are suitable subjects for today's | exercises. Their seeming quality does not matter. |
| W1:12.6 | pleasant and what you think is unpleasant. For the purposes of these | exercises, there is no difference between them. At the end of the |
| W1:12.8 | been erased, you will see His. That is the ultimate purpose of these | exercises. |
| W1:12.9 | exceed a minute. You may find even this too long. Terminate the | exercises whenever you experience a sense of strain. |
| W1:13.4 | The | exercises for today, which should be done about three or four times |
| W1:14.2 | The | exercises for today are to be practiced with eyes closed throughout. |
| W1:15.3 | true perception, and they are not related to knowledge. These | exercises will not reveal knowledge to you. But they will prepare the |
| W1:18.2 | refer to what you see as much as to how you see it. Therefore, the | exercises for today will emphasize this aspect of your perception. |
| W1:19.3 | The minute or so of mind searching which today's | exercises require are to be undertaken with eyes closed. The idea is |
| W1:20.4 | The | exercises for today consist in reminding yourselves throughout the |
| W1:24.3 | The | exercises for today require much more honesty than you are accustomed |
| W1:24.3 | are suggested for each of the mind searching periods which the | exercises involve. |
| W1:24.8 | If these | exercises are done properly, you will quickly recognize that you are |
| W1:25.4 | Before you can make any sense out of the | exercises for today, one more thought is necessary. At the most |
| W1:26.11 | If you are doing the | exercises properly, you should have some five or six distressing |
| W1:27.1 | you really mean it. This does not matter. The purpose of today's | exercises is to bring the time when the idea will be wholly true a |
| W1:28.4 | not question what we have already defined. And the purpose of these | exercises is to ask questions and receive the answers. In saying, |
| W1:32.2 | outside you and the other the world you see in your mind. In today's | exercises, try to introduce the thought that both are in your own |
| W1:32.4 | than three required. More than five can be utilized if you find the | exercises restful. To facilitate this, select a time when few |
| W1:32.5 | These | exercises are also to be continued during the day as often as |
| W1:34.2 | Three longer practice periods are required for today's | exercises. One in the morning and one in the evening are advised, |
| W1:35.10 | to you. Although nothing that does occur should be omitted from the | exercises, nothing should be “dug out” with effort. Neither force nor |
| W1:37.9 | The shorter | exercises consist of repeating the idea as often as you can. It is |
| W1:38.3 | In today's | exercises, we will apply the power of your holiness to all problems, |
| W1:38.8 | Introduce whatever variations appeal to you, but keep the | exercises focused on the theme “There is nothing my holiness cannot |
| W1:38.8 | “There is nothing my holiness cannot do.” The purpose of today's | exercises is to begin to instill in you a sense that you have |
| W1:39.1 | which this workbook was written, the ideas which are used for the | exercises are very simple, very clear, and totally unambiguous. We |
| W1:39.3 | A savior must be saved. How else can he teach salvation? Today's | exercises will apply to you alone, recognizing that your salvation is |
| W1:39.3 | salvation is crucial to the salvation of the world. As you apply the | exercises to your own world, the whole world stands to benefit. |
| W1:39.7 | with unloving thoughts of any kind are suitable subjects for today's | exercises. It is imperative for your own salvation that you see them |
| W1:40.3 | Today's | exercises take little time and no effort. Repeat today's idea, and |
| W1:42.8 | searching for relevant thoughts is not appropriate for today's | exercises. Try merely to step back and let the thoughts come. If you |
| W1:43.5 | to what you see. Four or five subjects for this phase of the | exercises are sufficient. You might say, for example: |
| W1:43.11 | with irrelevant thoughts. Return to the first phase of the | exercises as often as necessary to prevent this. |
| W1:44.9 | reassuring to open your eyes briefly. Try, however, to return to the | exercises as soon as possible. |
| W1:44.10 | If you are doing the | exercises correctly, you should experience some sense of relaxation |
| W1:45.6 | Begin the | exercises for today by repeating the idea to yourself, closing your |
| W1:45.10 | rest is wholly changeless. It is this foundation toward which the | exercises for today are directed. Here is your mind joined with the |
| W1:46.3 | Today's | exercises require at least three full five-minute practice periods |
| W1:46.4 | If you are doing the | exercises well, you should have no difficulty in finding a number of |
| W1:R1.1 | you should consider in your review. In the practice periods, the | exercises should be done as follows: |
| W1:R1.4 | After you have read the idea and the related comments, the | exercises should be done with your eyes closed and when you are alone |
| W1:64.11 | Two forms of shorter practice periods are required. At times, do the | exercises with your eyes closed, trying to concentrate on the |
| W1:66.4 | you must be happiness, even if it appears to be different. Today's | exercises are an attempt to go beyond these differences in |
| W1:69.7 | If you are doing the | exercises properly, you will begin to feel a sense of being lifted up |
| W1:71.12 | His Voice. Refuse not to hear. The very fact that you are doing the | exercises proves that you have some willingness to listen. This is |
| W1:72.18 | for today since they will be somewhat longer than usual. These | exercises begin with this: |
| W1:73.9 | free, and nothing can prevail against it. Therefore we undertake the | exercises for today in happy confidence, certain that we will find |
| W1:74.1 | today can be regarded as the central thought toward which all our | exercises are directed. God's is the only will. When you have |
| W1:74.2 | There is great peace in today's idea. And the | exercises for today are directed towards finding it. The idea itself |
| W1:75.3 | Our | exercises for today will be happy ones in which we offer thanks for |
| W1:79.8 | Our | exercises for today will be successful to the extent to which we do |
| W1:91.8 | The question with which this statement ends is needed for our | exercises today. What you think you are is a belief to be undone. But |
| W1:93.12 | or even able to use the first five minutes of each hour for these | exercises. Try, however, to do so when you can. At least remember to |
| W1:94.11 | Make every effort to do the hourly | exercises today. Each one you do will be a giant stride toward your |
| W1:95.3 | hear and see and what makes perfect sense. We will again direct our | exercises towards reaching your One Self, which is united with its |
| W1:97.8 | Begin these happy | exercises with the words the Holy Spirit speaks to you, and let them |
| W1:100.8 | Begin the | exercises with the thought today's idea contains. Then realize your |
| W1:101.5 | You need the practice periods today. The | exercises teach sin is not real, and all that you believe must come |
| W1:102.3 | days we will continue to devote our longer practice periods to | exercises planned to help you reach the happiness God's Will has |
| W1:106.8 | giving, not the way you understand it now, but as it is. Each hour's | exercises should begin with this request for your enlightenment: |
| W1:107.9 | doubt we walk with truth today and count on it to enter into all the | exercises that we do this day. |
| W1:108.13 | time on, and we will make much faster progress now. Think of the | exercises for today as quick advances in your learning, made still |
| W1:R3.9 | The | exercises to be done throughout the day are equally important and |
| W1:132.8 | the world. And some will find it in this course and in the | exercises that we do today. |

| Tx:1.97 | the miscreation is necessarily believed in by its maker, it does not | exist at all at the level of true creation. |
| Tx:1.98 | as false. All aspects of fear are untrue because they do not | exist at the higher creative level, and therefore do not exist at |

| Tx:2.36 | before the separation because the time-space belief did not | exist. It was only after the separation that the defense of Atonement |
| Tx:2.46 | separation, the mind was invulnerable to fear because fear did not | exist. Both the separation and the fear are miscreations of the mind |
| Tx:2.60 | meaningful, because the miscreations of the mind do not really | exist. This recognition is a far better protective device than any |
| Tx:2.61 | and therefore does not require correction. The body does not really | exist except as a learning device for the mind. This learning device |

| Tx:6.55 | is to assume inequality, which the Holy Spirit demonstrates does not | exist. Fidelity to premises is a law of mind, and everything God |
| Tx:6.62 | you are. It is clearly a separation device and therefore does not | exist. The Holy Spirit, as always, takes what you have made and |
| Tx:7.33 | not know Him. The state is unknown to Him and therefore does not | exist, but those who sleep are stupefied, or better, unaware. [And |

| Tx:9.14 | everywhere and in all respects, He teaches that the ego does not | exist and proves it. Follow His teaching in forgiveness then, because |
| Tx:9.56 | cannot use it. What He cannot transform to the Will of God does not | exist at all. Grandiosity is delusional, because it is used to |
| Tx:9.60 | beside you exists, for you are part of Him. What except Him can | exist? Nothing beyond Him can happen, because nothing except Him is |
| Tx:9.65 | that your banishment is not of God and therefore does not | exist. You are at home in God, dreaming of exile but perfectly |
| Tx:9.78 | from the dangers which the idol itself stands for, but which do not | exist. |
| Tx:9.83 | to your gods and how vigilant you are on their behalf. Yet they | exist only because you honor them. Place honor where it is due, and |
| Tx:9.88 | by His laws. Therefore, everything that is not under them does not | exist. “Laws of chaos” are meaningless by definition. Creation is |
| Tx:10.40 | step is obviously to recognize that what has no effects does not | exist. Laws do not operate in a vacuum, and what leads to nothing has |
| Tx:10.57 | through the eyes of the ego is a demonstration that His Son does not | exist, yet where the Son is, the Father must be. Accept what God does |
| Tx:10.68 | contradictory to His Will is either great or small. What does not | exist has no size and no measure. To God all things are possible. And |
| Tx:10.72 | enables you to perceive a condition in which opposites do not | exist. And this is the condition of knowledge. Without this |
| Tx:11.11 | of fear is removed. Thereby you teach yourself that fear does not | exist in you, for you have in yourself the means for removing it and |
| Tx:13.1 | Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He teaches that the past does not | exist, a fact which belongs to the sphere of knowledge and which |
| Tx:13.71 | His guilt is wholly without cause, and being without cause, cannot | exist. |
| Tx:14.4 | God is. Everything else that you have placed within your mind cannot | exist, for what is not in communication with the Mind of God has |
| Tx:14.26 | point of view at all but merely a belief in something that does not | exist. It is only this belief that the unknowing have, and by it they |
| Tx:14.69 | you would teach yourselves He has corrected already. They do not | exist in His Mind at all. For the past binds Him not and therefore |
| Tx:15.9 | is not of the present but only of the past and future, which do not | exist. There is no fear in the present when each instant stands clear |
| Tx:15.11 | not change. Learn from this instant more than merely hell does not | exist. In this redeeming instant lies Heaven. And Heaven will not |
| Tx:15.51 | liking, offering for your seeking a picture whose likeness does not | exist. For there is nothing in Heaven or earth that it resembles, and |
| Tx:16.31 | hate against the symbols of love play out a conflict which does not | exist. For symbols stand for something else, and the symbol of love |
| Tx:16.36 | solve the dilemma, which seems very real to you, but which does not | exist. You have come very close to truth, and only this stands |
| Tx:18.65 | At no single instant does the body | exist at all. It is always remembered or anticipated, but never |
| Tx:18.76 | tiny part regards itself as you. It is not missing; it could not | exist if it were separate, nor would the whole be whole without it. |
| Tx:19.49 | sees not, and each believes that what the other looks upon does not | exist. Fear looks on guilt with just the same devotion that love |
| Tx:21.53 | you will not find the answer there. Yet if it must be so, it must | exist. And if it exists for you and has your freedom as the purpose |
| Tx:22.19 | instance, and without exception. To believe that one exception can | exist is to confuse what is the same with what is different. One |
| Tx:23.4 | are far beyond them in the clean place where littleness does not | exist. Your purpose is at variance with littleness of any kind. And |
| Tx:23.14 | Conflict must be between two forces. It cannot | exist between one power and nothingness. There is nothing you could |
| Tx:25.87 | it does not make the same unlike, it sees no differences where none | exist. And thus it is the same for everyone, because it sees no |
| Tx:26.21 | of knowledge on perception—it has no meaning and does not | exist. This is not your decision. It is but a simple statement of a |
| Tx:27.14 | of the two, I pardon you my hurt.” His pardon and your hurt cannot | exist together. One denies the other and must make it false. |
| Tx:27.64 | the cause of what I do. Your presence justifies my wrath, and you | exist and think apart from me. While you attack, I must be innocent. |
| Tx:27.77 | the dreaming of the world. There is no dream without it, nor does it | exist without the dream, in which it acts as if it were a person, to |
| Tx:27.89 | that every one is like the rest. He sees no differences where none | exist, and He will teach you how each one is caused. None has a |
| Tx:28.47 | Him. There is no other choice. Except you share it, nothing can | exist. And you exist because God shared His Will with you, that His |
| Tx:28.47 | is no other choice. Except you share it, nothing can exist. And you | exist because God shared His Will with you, that His creation might |
| Tx:28.53 | in a world perceived to be existing here. The world you see does not | exist because the place where you perceive it is not real. The gap is |
| Tx:29.19 | For if He be the sum of everything, then what is not in Him does not | exist, and His completion is its nothingness. Your savior is not |
| Tx:29.28 | if they be fulfilled or merely wanted. It is the idea that they | exist from which the fears arise. Dreams are not wanted more or less. |
| Tx:30.48 | Where could the Thought God holds of you | exist but where you are? Is your reality a thing apart from you and |
| Tx:31.42 | no road that leads away from Him. A journey from yourself does not | exist. How foolish and insane it is to think that there could be a |
| Tx:31.49 | are learned. They are not natural. Apart from learning, they do not | exist. They are not given, and they must be made. Not one of them is |
| W1:13.3 | which it does not possess and crowd it with images that do not | exist. To the ego, illusions are safety devices, as they must also be |
| W1:14.1 | a meaningless world is impossible. What God did not create does not | exist. And everything that does exist exists as He created it. The |
| W1:14.1 | What God did not create does not exist. And everything that does | exist exists as He created it. The world you see has nothing to do |
| W1:14.1 | to do with reality. It is of your own making, and it does not | exist. |
| W1:22.2 | that you hate and would attack and kill. All that you fear does not | exist. |
| W1:43.2 | In God you cannot see. Perception has no function in God and does not | exist. Yet in salvation, which is the undoing of what never was, |
| W1:52.6 | of which I am aware. What can these thoughts mean? They do not | exist, and so they mean nothing. Yet my mind is part of creation and |
| W1:53.4 | of the world of fear because I am acknowledging that it does not | exist. |
| W1:53.5 | God did not create a meaningless world. How can a meaningless world | exist if God did not create it? He is the Source of all meaning, and |
| W1:54.3 | I see witnesses to what I think. If I did not think, I would not | exist, because life is thought. Let me look on the world I see as the |
| W1:76.6 | Will. Your magic has no meaning. What it is meant to save does not | exist. Only what it is meant to hide will save you. |
| W1:80.8 | today. Let us be determined to be free of problems that do not | exist. The means is simple honesty. Do not deceive yourself about |
| W1:88.7 | My perception of this shows me I believe in laws which do not | exist. I see only the laws of God at work in this. Let me allow God's |
| W1:93.5 | self you made is not the Son of God. Therefore, this self does not | exist at all. And anything it seems to do and think means nothing. It |
| W1:96.4 | A mind and body cannot both | exist. Make no attempt to reconcile the two, for one denies the other |
| W1:96.7 | cannot make illusions real and solve a problem that does not | exist. Perhaps you hope it can. Yet would you have God's plan for the |
| W1:99.3 | earth and Heaven can be reconciled within a mind where both of them | exist? The mind that sees illusions thinks them real. They have |
| W1:102.2 | It cannot purchase anything at all. It offers nothing and does not | exist. And everything you think it offers you is lacking in existence |
| W1:110.2 | fear has no meaning, evil is not real, and misery and death do not | exist. Today's idea is therefore all you need to let complete |
| W1:129.3 | where losing is impossible, where love endures forever, hate cannot | exist, and vengeance has no meaning? Is it loss to find all things |
| W1:131.10 | a hell opposing Heaven and believes that he abides in what does not | exist, while Heaven is the place he cannot find. Leave foolish |
| W1:132.8 | that is not of this world, which shows them that the world does not | exist because what they behold must be the truth, and yet it clearly |
| W1:132.9 | Today's idea is true because the world does not | exist. And if it is indeed your own imagining, then you can loose it |

| Tx:8.105 | reality and know what it is. And if you do distort reality, you will | experience anxiety, depression, and ultimately panic, because you are |
| Tx:9.65 | to reality. Is it your will to do so? You know from your own | experience that what you see in dreams you think is real as long as |
| Tx:10.32 | hold only for your protection, and they never hold in vain. What you | experience when you deny your Father is still for your protection, |
| Tx:10.44 | extension of His Will cannot be unlike itself. The real conflict you | experience, then, is between the ego's idle wishes and the Will of |
| Tx:10.49 | of the form it takes and quite apart from how the ego wants you to | experience it, is therefore the basic ego threat. Its dream of |
| Tx:10.59 | what you do not believe. Perceptions are built up on the basis of | experience, and experience leads to beliefs. It is not until beliefs |
| Tx:10.59 | believe. Perceptions are built up on the basis of experience, and | experience leads to beliefs. It is not until beliefs are fixed that |
| Tx:10.61 | perceptions. For perceptions are learned with beliefs,] and | experience teaches. I am leading you to a new kind of experience, |
| Tx:10.61 | beliefs,] and experience teaches. I am leading you to a new kind of | experience, which you will become less and less willing to deny. |
| Tx:11.25 | that he believes salvation lies in it. If you insist on refusing and | experience a quick response of opposition, you are believing that |
| Tx:12.2 | to get rid of it, but you are actually merely concealing it. You do | experience guilt feelings, but you have no idea why. On the contrary, |
| Tx:12.24 | and the real Heaven is the greatest threat you think you could | experience. For hell and oblivion are ideas which you made up, and |
| Tx:12.46 | You consider it “natural” to use your past | experience as the reference point from which to judge the present. |
| Tx:12.48 | purposes. You would anticipate the future on the basis of your past | experience and plan for it accordingly. Yet by doing so, you are |
| Tx:13.34 | kindness, will never more be what it was. Every reaction that you | experience will be so purified that it is fitting as a hymn of praise |
| Tx:13.67 | What I | experience, I will make manifest. If I am guiltless, I have nothing |
| Tx:14.2 | how much your Father loves you, for there is no parallel in your | experience of the world to help you understand it. There is nothing |
| Tx:14.8 | Do not try to steal it from him, or you will ask for guilt and will | experience it. Protect his purity from every thought that would steal |
| Tx:15.21 | go along. To learn to separate out this single second and begin to | experience it as timeless, is to begin to experience yourself as not |
| Tx:15.21 | single second and begin to experience it as timeless, is to begin to | experience yourself as not separate. Fear not that you will not be |
| Tx:15.45 | judgment entirely. Judgment always rests on the past, for past | experience is the basis on which you judge. Judgment becomes |
| Tx:15.46 | is to believe you are alone. To be alone is to be guilty. For to | experience yourself as alone is to deny the oneness of the Father and |
| Tx:15.48 | which you have chosen to support the ego, as a learning | experience which points to truth. Under His teaching, every |
| Tx:15.64 | the power of God will take their rightful place in you, and you will | experience the full communication of ideas with ideas. Through your |
| Tx:15.78 | completion makes you His in your awareness. And here it is that you | experience yourself as you were created and as you are. |
| Tx:15.89 | and the need your creations have to be with you forever, you would | experience the attraction of the eternal. No one can hear Him speak |
| Tx:15.91 | of a body at all. In the holy instant there are no bodies, and you | experience only the attraction of God. Accepting it as undivided, you |
| Tx:16.57 | yourself. Its whole thought system is a carefully contrived learning | experience designed to lead away from truth and into fantasy. Yet for |
| Tx:16.76 | awareness of the complete difference in all respects between your | experience of truth and illusion. Yet you will not attempt this long. |
| Tx:16.76 | you joined Him. The illusions you bring with you will weaken the | experience of Him for a while and will prevent you from keeping the |
| Tx:16.76 | experience of Him for a while and will prevent you from keeping the | experience in your mind. Yet the holy instant is eternal, and your |
| Tx:17.16 | bodies are central to all unholy relationships is evident. Your own | experience has taught you this. But what you do not realize are all |
| Tx:17.42 | As God ascends into His rightful place and you to yours, you will | experience again the meaning of relationship and know it to be true. |
| Tx:17.43 | witnessed to by its results. The holy instant never fails. The | experience of it is always felt. Yet without expression, it is not |
| Tx:17.43 | not remembered. The holy relationship is a constant reminder of the | experience in which the relationship became what it is. And as the |
| Tx:17.54 | The | experience of an instant, however compelling it may be, is easily |
| Tx:17.61 | them, where peace is they must be. Truth comes of itself. If you | experience peace, it is because the truth has come to you, and you |
| Tx:17.61 | ego's way of looking, for the ego believes the situation brings the | experience. The Holy Spirit knows that the situation is as the goal |
| Tx:17.63 | truth would bring. For fantasy solutions bring but the illusion of | experience, and the illusion of peace is not the condition in which |
| Tx:18.30 | to make whole. Let not time worry you, for all the fear that you | experience is really past. Time has been readjusted to help us do |
| Tx:18.46 | lie in the fact that it is now impossible for either of you to | experience fear alone or to attempt to deal with it alone. Never |
| Tx:18.61 | self. In these instants of release from physical restrictions, you | experience much of what happens in the holy instant; the lifting of |
| Tx:18.61 | instant; the lifting of the barriers of time and space, the sudden | experience of peace and joy, and, above all, the lack of awareness of |
| Tx:20.31 | Those who choose freedom will | experience only its results. Their power is of God, and they will |
| Tx:20.46 | Nothing can show the contrast better than the | experience of both a holy and an unholy relationship. The first is |
| Tx:20.59 | sin to holiness should now be almost over. To the extent you still | experience it, you are refusing to leave the means to Him Who changed |
| Tx:21.15 | I am responsible for what I see. I chose the feelings I | experience, and I decided on the goal I would achieve. And everything |
| Tx:21.30 | for truth. The source of sin is gone. You may imagine that you still | experience its effects, but it is not your purpose, and you no longer |
| Tx:21.50 | that you will see yourself as tiny, vulnerable, and afraid. You will | experience depression, a sense of worthlessness, and feelings of |
| Tx:21.90 | that could be always yours. Here is the constant peace you could | experience forever. Here is what denial has denied revealed to you. |
| Tx:22.63 | the alternatives, this seems more natural and more in line with your | experience. And therefore it is necessary that you have other |
| Tx:22.64 | of your holy relationship. For what one thinks the other will | experience with him. What can this mean except your minds are one? |
| Tx:25.75 | in every circumstance that this is true. Nor need you look to your | experience within the world, which is but shadows of all that is |
| Tx:27.10 | It has no life, but neither is it dead. It stands apart from all | experience of fear or love. For now it witnesses to nothing yet, its |
| Tx:30.7 | have, the things you want to happen to you, and the things you would | experience and say, |
| Tx:30.83 | labels change with other judgments made on different aspects of | experience. And then in looking back you think you see another |
| W1:5.10 | source of the upset as you perceive it and of the feelings as you | experience it. Further examples are: |
| W1:10.8 | and it should be reduced to half a minute or even less if you | experience discomfort. Remember, however, to repeat the idea slowly |
| W1:12.9 | may find even this too long. Terminate the exercises whenever you | experience a sense of strain. |
| W1:17.9 | and no less than three are required for maximum benefit even if you | experience resistance. However, if you do, the length of the practice |
| W1:21.2 | ranging from mild irritation to rage. The degree of the emotion you | experience does not matter. You will become increasingly aware that a |
| W1:24.8 | that you have no unified outcome in mind, and that you must | experience disappointment in connection with some of your goals |
| W1:28.3 | telling it what it is. You are not binding its meaning to your tiny | experience of tables, nor are you limiting its purpose to your little |
| W1:29.7 | the words unhurriedly to yourself. At least once or twice you should | experience a sense of restfulness as you do this. |
| W1:34.4 | If you begin to | experience difficulty in thinking of specific subjects, continue to |
| W1:41.1 | the sense of loneliness and abandonment which all the separated ones | experience. Depression is an inevitable consequence of separation. So |
| W1:44.10 | If you are doing the exercises correctly, you should | experience some sense of relaxation and even a feeling that you are |
| W1:74.2 | conflict is impossible. Let us try to recognize this today and | experience the peace this recognition brings. |
| W1:74.11 | you have cleared your mind in this way, close your eyes and try to | experience the peace to which your reality entitles you. Sink into |
| W1:74.11 | of drowsiness and enervation. Joy characterizes peace. By this | experience will you recognize that you have reached it. |
| W1:74.12 | in refusing to allow retreat into withdrawal, even if you do not | experience the peace you seek. |
| W1:76.14 | or five times an hour, as well as in response to any temptation to | experience ourselves as subject to other laws throughout the day. It |
| W1:82.5 | function by forgetting. And unless I fulfill my function, I will not | experience the joy that God intends for me. |
| W1:84.2 | I am in the likeness of my Creator. I cannot suffer, I cannot | experience loss, and I cannot die. I am not a body. I would recognize |
| W1:87.2 | leads me, and I will look only on what it shows me. This day I will | experience the peace of true perception. |
| W1:91.5 | do what it desires. You can escape the body if you choose. You can | experience the strength in you. |
| W1:91.9 | to put your faith in, as you lift it from the body. You need a real | experience of something else, something more solid and more sure, |
| W1:91.12 | In the second phase of the exercise period, try to | experience these truths about yourself. Concentrate particularly on |
| W1:91.12 | these truths about yourself. Concentrate particularly on the | experience of strength. Remember that all sense of weakness is |
| W1:93.10 | self-images and spend the rest of the practice period in trying to | experience what God has given you in place of what you have decreed |
| W1:93.11 | or what you made. One Self is true; the other is not there. Try to | experience the unity of your One Self. Try to appreciate its holiness |
| W1:96.1 | Although you are One Self, you | experience yourself as two—as both good and evil, loving and |
| W1:105.9 | gift of peace and joy which God has given you. Now are you ready to | experience the joy and peace you have denied yourself. Now you can |
| W1:124.7 | give, for we would keep the gifts our Father gave. Today we would | experience ourselves at one with Him, so that the world may share our |
| W1:124.7 | Him, so that the world may share our recognition of reality. In our | experience the world is freed; as we deny our separation from our |
| W1:132.8 | suddenly on point of death and rise to teach it. Others find it in | experience that is not of this world, which shows them that the world |
| W1:135.16 | Time becomes a future emphasis to be controlled by learning and | experience obtained from past events and previous beliefs. It |
| W1:135.17 | has learned before becomes the basis for its future goals. Its past | experience directs its choice of what will happen. And it does not |
| W1:157.1 | of eternity are heard. This day is holy, for it ushers in a new | experience, a different kind of feeling and awareness. You have spent |
| W1:157.2 | point in the curriculum. We add a new dimension now—a fresh | experience that sheds a light on all that we have learned already and |
| W1:157.5 | you meet, and everyone you think of, or who thinks of you. For your | experience today will so transform your mind that it becomes the |
| W1:157.6 | today, its only purpose being now to bring the vision of what you | experience this day to light the world. We cannot give experience |
| W1:157.6 | of what you experience this day to light the world. We cannot give | experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in our eyes |
| W1:157.6 | which we can offer everyone that he may come the sooner to the same | experience in which the world is quietly forgot and Heaven is |
| W1:157.7 | As this | experience increases and all goals but this become of little worth, |
| W1:157.8 | dreamed for you this journey which you make and start today with the | experience this day holds out to you to be your own. |
| W1:158.2 | today? Our lesson yesterday evoked a theme found early in the text. | Experience cannot be shared directly in the way that vision can. The |
| W1:158.4 | appearances which does not change. The script is written. When | experience will come to end your doubting has been set. For we but |
| W1:158.5 | The teacher does not give | experience because he did not learn it. It revealed itself to him at |
| W1:158.6 | Here are all contradictions reconciled, for here the journey ends. | Experience, unlearned, untaught, unseen, is merely there. This is |
| W1:169.3 | know and thus is ready to accept a state completely different from | experience with which it is familiarly at home. |
| W1:169.4 | And yet we urge you to bear witness to the Word of God to hasten the | experience of truth and speed its advent into every mind which |
| W1:169.7 | This is beyond | experience we try to hasten. Yet forgiveness, taught and learned, |
| W1:169.11 | And now we ask for grace, the final gift salvation can bestow. | Experience that grace provides will end in time, for grace |
| W1:169.11 | returned by you from holy instants you receive through grace in your | experience to all who see the light that lingers on your face. |
| W1:169.13 | not far behind. Its coming is ensured. We ask for grace and for | experience that comes from grace. We welcome the release it offers |
| W1:R5.12 | Let this review become a time in which we share a new | experience for you, yet one as old as time, and older still. Hallowed |
| W1:R5.15 | to recall the mind as needed to its purpose. We place faith in the | experience that comes from practice, not the means we use. We wait |
| W1:R5.15 | that comes from practice, not the means we use. We wait for the | experience and recognize that it is only here conviction lies. We use |
| W1:I2.2 | convey the sense of liberation which their lifting brings. But the | experience of freedom and of peace that comes as you give up your |
| W1:I2.3 | words by concentrating first on what impedes our progress still. | Experience of what exists beyond defensiveness remains beyond |
| W1:181.2 | you held before. Remove your focus on your brother's sins, and you | experience the peace that comes from faith in sinlessness. This faith |
| W1:181.10 | We look straight into the present. And we give our trust to the | experience we ask for now. Our sinlessness is but the Will of God. |
| W1:183.10 | Today you can achieve a state in which you will | experience the gifts of grace. You can escape all bondage of the |
| W1:183.12 | possibly convey, is peace eternal. In our Father's Name, we would | experience this peace today. And in His Name it shall be given us. |
| W1:184.13 | No one can fail who seeks the meaning of the Name of God. | Experience must come to supplement the word. But first you must |
| W1:186.5 | is so. The arrogant must cling to words, afraid to go beyond them to | experience which might affront their stance. Yet are the humble free |
| W1:186.8 | day with welcome or with tears. Our very being seems to change as we | experience a thousand shifts in mood, and our emotions raise us high |
| W1:194.4 | the future go and place it in God's hands. And you will see by your | experience that you have laid the past and present in His hands as |
| W1:194.7 | hands of God? What can he suffer? What can cause him pain or bring | experience of loss to him? What can he fear? And what can he regard |
| W2:I.1 | but as guides on which we do not now depend. For now we seek direct | experience of truth alone. The lessons which remain are merely |
| W2:I.11 | will intersperse our daily lessons and the periods of wordless, deep | experience which should come afterwards. These special thoughts |

| W2:310.1 | with You, as You have chosen all my days should be. And what I will | experience is not of time at all. The joy that comes to me is not of |
| W2:327.1 | He will hear my call and answer me Himself. Let me but learn from my | experience that this is true, and faith in Him must surely come to |

| Tx:1.70 | false underpinnings are given up, the equilibrium is temporarily | experienced as unstable. However, the fact is that nothing is less |

| Tx:4.17 | you. The ego is afraid of the Soul's joy because, once you have | experienced it, you will withdraw all protection from the ego and |
| Tx:4.48 | you the knowledge of permanence and unshakable being. No one who has | experienced the revelation of this can ever fully believe in the ego |

| Tx:9.90 | When you have | experienced the protection of God, the making of idols becomes |
| Tx:14.48 | from here. From the world's viewpoint, this is impossible. You have | experienced lack of competition among your thoughts, which, even |
| Tx:15.7 | does. The only way in which the ego allows the fear of hell to be | experienced is to bring hell here, but always as a foretaste of the |
| Tx:15.62 | swiftly as the veil of time is pushed aside. No one who has not yet | experienced the lifting of the veil and felt himself drawn |

| Tx:17.47 | beneficent and joyous. But at the beginning, the situation is | experienced as very precarious. A relationship undertaken by two |

| Tx:4.45 | point to the nonexistence of the ego itself. The ego therefore | experiences threat and not only censors but also reinterprets the |

| Tx:1.66 | you that I will witness for anyone who lets me and to whatever | extent he permits it. Your witnessing demonstrates your belief and |
| Tx:1.80 | me in charge of the Sonship, which I can render complete only to the | extent to which I can share it. This may appear to contradict the |

| Tx:13.50 | truth. This is an insane world, and do not underestimate the actual | extent of its insanity. There is no area of your perception that it |
| Tx:14.29 | to do the little He suggests you do, trusting Him only to the small | extent of believing that if He asks it, you can do it. You will see |
| Tx:15.39 | within the holy instant, as clear as you would have me. And the | extent to which you learn to be willing to accept me is the measure |
| Tx:16.30 | to balance hate with love that makes love meaningless to you. The | extent of the split that lies in this you do not realize. And until |

| Tx:1.22 | a very primitive solution and has led to a denial of the Spiritual | eye. The escape from darkness involves two stages: |
| Tx:1.56 | 39. The Spiritual | eye is the mechanism of miracles, because what It perceives is true. |
| Tx:1.57 | 40. The miracle dissolves error, because the Spiritual | eye identifies error as false or unreal. This is the same as saying |
| Tx:1.105 | he can see the real vision. This vision is invisible to the physical | eye. The ultimate purpose of the body is to render itself |

| Tx:2.13 | visual misperceptions. Man's Spiritual eye can sleep, but a sleeping | eye can still see. What is seen in dreams seems to be very real. The |
| Tx:2.45 | The real beauty of the temple cannot be seen with the physical | eye. The Spiritual eye, on the other hand, cannot see the building at |
| Tx:2.45 | of the temple cannot be seen with the physical eye. The Spiritual | eye, on the other hand, cannot see the building at all because it has |
| Tx:2.48 | a perceptual turning-point. This ultimately reawakens the Spiritual | eye, simultaneously weakening the investment in physical sight. The |
| Tx:2.49 | The Spiritual | eye literally cannot see error and merely looks for Atonement. All |
| Tx:2.49 | which the physical eyes seek dissolve in its sight. The Spiritual | eye, which looks within, recognizes immediately that the altar has |
| Tx:2.67 | Corrective learning always begins with the awakening of the Spiritual | eye and the turning away from the belief in physical sight. The |
| Tx:2.67 | so often entails fear is because man is afraid of what his Spiritual | eye will see. We said before that the Spiritual eye cannot see error |
| Tx:2.67 | what his Spiritual eye will see. We said before that the Spiritual | eye cannot see error and is capable only of looking beyond it to the |
| Tx:2.67 | it to the defense of Atonement. There is no doubt that the Spiritual | eye does produce extreme discomfort by what it sees. Yet what man |
| Tx:2.67 | is not the final outcome of its perception. When the Spiritual | eye is permitted to look upon the defilement of the altar, it also |
| Tx:2.68 | Nothing the Spiritual | eye perceives can induce fear. Everything that results from accurate |
| Tx:2.68 | the need for correction forcibly into awareness. What the physical | eye sees is not corrective nor can it be corrected by any device |
| Tx:3.34 | Visions are the natural perception of the Spiritual | eye, but they are still corrections. The Spiritual eye is symbolic |
| Tx:3.34 | of the Spiritual eye, but they are still corrections. The Spiritual | eye is symbolic and therefore not a device for knowing. It is, |
| Tx:6.31 | which the Holy Spirit guides. You might remember that the human | eye perceives parallel lines as if they meet in the distance, which |
| Tx:21.46 | want. A few remaining trinkets still seem to shine and catch your | eye. Yet you would not “sell” Heaven to have them. |
| W1:7.10 | the idea for today indiscriminately to whatever catches your | eye. For example: |
| W1:17.4 | look about you, resting your glance on each thing that catches your | eye long enough to say: |

| Tx:1.22 | believes that what he cannot see does not exist, and his physical | eyes cannot see in the dark. This is a very primitive solution and |
| Tx:2.49 | and merely looks for Atonement. All the solutions which the physical | eyes seek dissolve in its sight. The Spiritual eye, which looks |
| Tx:8.102 | impossible for you to change them. If you hold your hands over your | eyes, you will not see because you are interfering with the laws of |
| Tx:9.11 | this through Him, you cannot look on your abilities through the | eyes of the ego, or you will judge them as it does. All their |
| Tx:9.31 | Spirit in you except by His effects? You cannot see Him with your | eyes nor hear Him with your ears. How, then, can you perceive Him at |
| Tx:10.9 | of love does not stop because you do not see it, and your closed | eyes have not lost the ability to see. Look upon the glory of His |
| Tx:10.57 | can prove that a lie is true. What you see of His Son through the | eyes of the ego is a demonstration that His Son does not exist, yet |
| Tx:10.66 | eternal life. The dream of crucifixion still lies heavy on your | eyes, but what you see in dreams is not reality. While you perceive |
| Tx:11.17 | in the darkness of your own certainty and refusing to open your | eyes and look at them. |
| Tx:11.56 | Correction is for all who cannot see. To open the | eyes of the blind is the Holy Spirit's mission, for He knows that |
| Tx:11.56 | from the sleep of forgetting to the remembering of God. Christ's | eyes are open, and He will look upon whatever you see with love if |
| Tx:11.72 | we will look upon the world as God created it together. Through the | eyes of Christ, only the real world exists and can be seen. As you |
| Tx:12.37 | love your brothers offer you, you do not see. As you look with open | eyes upon your world, it must occur to you that you have withdrawn |
| Tx:12.41 | in the private world of sleep, you see in dreams, although your | eyes are closed. And it is here that what you see you made. But let |
| Tx:12.42 | Do not seek vision through your | eyes, for you made your way of seeing that you might see in darkness, |
| Tx:12.49 | found it. Learn, then, to seek it where it is, and it will dawn on | eyes that see. Your past was made in anger, and if you use it to |
| Tx:12.56 | that is why the nightmares come. You dream of isolation because your | eyes are closed. You do not see your brothers, and in the darkness |
| Tx:15.101 | nothing more than a gentle awakening and as simple as opening your | eyes to daylight when you have no more need of sleep. |
| Tx:16.30 | not to let it go. Your salvation will rise clearly before your open | eyes as you look on this. You cannot limit hate. The special love |
| Tx:17.12 | rise to bless your sight as you look upon the world with forgiving | eyes. For forgiveness literally transforms vision and lets you see |
| Tx:18.22 | Let not the dream take hold to close your | eyes. It is not strange that dreams can make a world that is unreal. |
| Tx:18.83 | still worn and tired and the desert's dust still seems to cloud your | eyes and keep you sightless. Yet He Whom you welcomed has come to you |
| Tx:18.86 | the darkness and the lifelessness are seen only through the body's | eyes. Its vision is distorted, and the messages it transmits to you |
| Tx:18.87 | underneath, for it is not the body that could speak of this. Its | eyes perceive it not; its senses remain quite unaware of it; its |
| Tx:18.88 | which must always depend on keeping it not seen. The body's | eyes will never look on it. Yet they will see what it dictates. |
| Tx:19.12 | Son of God and judges him unworthy of forgiveness. But through the | eyes of faith, the Son of God is seen already forgiven, free of all |
| Tx:19.12 | in him only what it would see in you. It sees not through the body's | eyes nor looks to bodies for its justification. It is the messenger |
| Tx:19.13 | Yet faith unites you in the holiness you see, not through the body's | eyes but in the sight of Him Who joined you and in Whom you are |
| Tx:19.29 | which can be easily corrected in the mind, although the body's | eyes will see no change. The eyes see many things the mind corrects, |
| Tx:19.29 | in the mind, although the body's eyes will see no change. The | eyes see many things the mind corrects, and you respond, not to the |
| Tx:19.29 | eyes see many things the mind corrects, and you respond, not to the | eyes' illusions, but to the mind's corrections. |
| Tx:19.35 | instant Heaven gave you. Forget what you have seen and raise your | eyes in faith to what you now can see. The barriers to heaven will |
| Tx:19.36 | show you in each other, and let not sin arise again to blind your | eyes. For sin would keep you separate, but your Redeemer would have |
| Tx:19.51 | they return to him. No little shred of guilt escapes their hungry | eyes. And in their savage search for sin, they pounce on any living |
| Tx:19.95 | you stand in terror before what you swore never to look upon. Your | eyes look down, remembering your promise to your “friends.” The |
| Tx:19.95 | swore in blood not to desert, all rise and bid you not to raise your | eyes. For you realize that if you look on this and let the veil be |
| Tx:19.96 | to you the world will utterly abandon you if you but raise your | eyes. Yet all that will occur is you will leave the world forever. |
| Tx:19.97 | Guide Who brought you here remains with you, and when you raise your | eyes, you will be ready to look on terror with no fear at all. But |
| Tx:19.97 | ready to look on terror with no fear at all. But first lift up your | eyes and look upon each other in innocence born of complete |
| Tx:19.97 | of complete forgiveness of each other's illusions and through the | eyes of faith, which sees them not. |
| Tx:19.101 | will share in madness or in Heaven together. And you will raise your | eyes in faith together or not at all. |
| Tx:20.5 | to cover it or for its use. See all the useless things made for its | eyes to see. Think on the many offerings made for its pleasure and |
| Tx:20.5 | hated thing to draw your brother to you and to attract his body's | eyes? Learn you but offer him a crown of thorns, not recognizing it |
| Tx:20.9 | You look still with the body's | eyes, and they can see but thorns. Yet you have asked for and |
| Tx:20.10 | This Easter look with different | eyes upon each other. You have forgiven me. And yet I cannot use your |
| Tx:20.11 | it is ready to receive you now. You will not see it with the body's | eyes. Yet all you need you have. |
| Tx:20.12 | glad refrain the Son of God was never crucified. Let us lift up our | eyes together, not in fear, but faith. And there will be no fear in |
| Tx:20.20 | what the world is really like; how it would look through happy | eyes? The world you see is but a judgment on yourself. It is not |
| Tx:20.25 | chains for years, starved and emaciated, weak and exhausted and with | eyes so long cast down in darkness they remember not the light, do |
| Tx:20.25 | hold on life so long forgotten. Strengthen your hold and raise your | eyes unto your strong companion, in whom the meaning of your freedom |
| Tx:20.65 | for your imaginings about him will seem real there. You closed your | eyes to shut him out. Such was your purpose, and while this purpose |
| Tx:20.72 | sin is turned to blessing under His gentle gaze. What can the body's | eyes perceive, with power to correct? Its eyes adjust to sin, unable |
| Tx:20.72 | gaze. What can the body's eyes perceive, with power to correct? Its | eyes adjust to sin, unable to overlook it in any form and seeing it |
| Tx:20.72 | any form and seeing it everywhere, in everything. Look through its | eyes, and everything will stand condemned before you. All that could |
| Tx:21.3 | doors you thought were closed but which stand open before unseeing | eyes, waiting to welcome you. |
| Tx:21.10 | and shining circle. And all the circle fills with light before your | eyes. The edges of the circle disappear, and what is in it is no |
| Tx:21.42 | Loudly the ego tells you not to look inward, for if you do, your | eyes will light on sin, and God will strike you blind. This you |
| Tx:21.77 | this decision but the choice whether to see him through the body's | eyes or let him be revealed to you through vision? How this decision |
| Tx:21.81 | see a sinless world and let an “enemy” tempt you to use the body's | eyes and change what you desire. |
| Tx:22.6 | think is you. Reason would tell you that the world you see through | eyes which are not yours must make no sense to you. To whom would |
| Tx:22.6 | messages? Surely not you, whose sight is wholly independent of the | eyes which look upon the world. If this is not your vision, what can |
| Tx:22.7 | vision would, of course, render this quite unnecessary. Yet if your | eyes are closed and you have called upon this thing to lead you, |
| Tx:22.18 | which they are accepted is irrelevant. No form of misery in reason's | eyes can be confused with joy. Joy is eternal. You can be sure indeed |
| Tx:22.31 | on it without the help of reason would try to pass it. The body's | eyes behold it as solid granite, so thick it would be madness to |
| Tx:22.31 | error. The form it takes cannot conceal its emptiness from reason's | eyes. |
| Tx:22.32 | and does not know if it is there or not. Everything which the body's | eyes can see is a mistake, an error in perception, a distorted |
| Tx:22.33 | is a mistake, the form cannot prevent correction. The body's | eyes see only form. They cannot see beyond what they were made to |
| Tx:22.34 | These | eyes, made not to see, will never see. For the idea they represent |
| Tx:22.34 | them. What was its maker's goal but not to see? For this the body's | eyes are perfect means, but not for seeing. See how the body's eyes |
| Tx:22.34 | eyes are perfect means, but not for seeing. See how the body's | eyes rest on externals and cannot go beyond. Watch how they stop at |
| Tx:22.36 | would show you your forgiveness, be kept from you by what the body's | eyes can see. Let your awareness of your brother not be blocked by |
| Tx:22.41 | you saw beyond the veil which you will bring to light the tired | eyes of those as weary now as once you were. How thankful will they |
| Tx:22.49 | weight, solidity, and firmness of foundation. Yes, to the body's | eyes it looks like an enormous solid body, immovable as is a |
| Tx:22.53 | end as easy as is the shift from hate to gratitude before forgiving | eyes. You will be sanctified by one another, using your bodies only |
| Tx:22.58 | You will see your value through each other's | eyes, and each one is released as he beholds his savior in place of |
| Tx:23.33 | must be seen as sanity. And fear, with ashen lips and sightless | eyes, blinded and terrible to look upon, is lifted to the throne of |
| Tx:24.23 | seal but offers treachery to giver and receiver. Not one glance from | eyes it veils but looks on sight of death. Not one believer in its |
| Tx:24.32 | but not by Him Who made not death, but only in the dream. Open your | eyes a little; see the savior God gave to you that you might look on |
| Tx:24.42 | Identify with Him, and what has He that you have not? He is your | eyes, your ears, your hands, your feet. How gentle are the sights He |
| Tx:24.43 | your brother first, nor hated him before it hated you. The sin its | eyes behold in him and love to look upon, it saw in you and looks on |
| Tx:24.43 | with flesh already loosened from the bone and sightless holes for | eyes, is like yourself? |
| Tx:24.44 | Rejoice you have no | eyes with which to see, no ears to listen, and no hands to hold nor |
| Tx:24.46 | His brothers in Himself. He gives them vision for their sightless | eyes and sings to them of Heaven that their ears may hear no more the |
| Tx:24.54 | It is His sinlessness that | eyes which see can look upon. It is His loveliness they see in |
| Tx:24.54 | Him in Whom your brother lives and you along with him. Let not your | eyes be blinded by the veil of specialness that hides the face of |
| Tx:24.59 | need of nothing, and unjoined with anything beyond the body. In its | eyes, you are a separate universe with all the power to hold itself |
| Tx:24.70 | yourself. It is the means to make your wish come true. It gives the | eyes with which you look on it, the hands that feel it, and the ears |
| Tx:24.71 | within its sight. Its course is sure when seen through its own | eyes. It grows and withers, flourishes and dies. And you cannot |
| Tx:25.12 | Is it not evident that what the body's | eyes perceive fills you with fear? Perhaps you think you find a hope |
| Tx:25.30 | between you and His gentleness. It is not there in His forgiving | eyes. And therefore it need not be there in yours. Sin is the fixed |
| Tx:25.34 | where peace abides. This world you bring with you to all the weary | eyes and tired hearts that look on sin and beat its sad refrain. From |
| Tx:25.38 | both each time you look on one another. He has not gone because your | eyes are closed. But what is there to see by searching for your |
| Tx:25.38 | to see by searching for your savior, seeing Him through sightless | eyes? |
| Tx:25.43 | The grace of God rests gently on forgiving | eyes, and everything they look on speaks of Him to the beholder. He |
| Tx:25.44 | Eyes become used to darkness, and the light of brilliant day seems | |
| Tx:25.44 | to darkness, and the light of brilliant day seems painful to the | eyes grown long accustomed to the dim effects perceived at twilight. |
| Tx:25.44 | and more obscure seems easier to look upon; less painful to the | eyes than what is wholly clear and unambiguous. Yet this is not what |
| Tx:25.44 | eyes than what is wholly clear and unambiguous. Yet this is not what | eyes are for. And who can say that he prefers the darkness and |
| Tx:25.44 | wants to see? The wish to see calls down the grace of God upon your | eyes and brings the gift of light that makes sight possible. |
| Tx:25.55 | But sin is equally insane within the sight of love, whose gentle | eyes would look beyond the madness and rest peacefully on truth. Each |
| Tx:25.82 | miracles depend on justice. Not as it is seen through this world's | eyes, but as God knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight |
| Tx:26.4 | the world recede before his song and sight of him replace the body's | eyes. |
| Tx:26.7 | he sees it not. You who would make a sacrifice of life and make your | eyes and ears bear witness to the death of God and of His holy Son, |
| Tx:26.35 | could be made again in time. You keep an ancient memory before your | eyes. And he who lives in memories alone is unaware of where he is. |
| Tx:26.77 | home and battle with His host. Regard him gently. Look with loving | eyes on him who carries Christ within him, that you may behold His |
| Tx:27.3 | upon God's Son. You hold a picture of your crucifixion before his | eyes that he may see his sins are writ in Heaven in your blood and |
| Tx:27.6 | in love. And he will look on his forgiveness there and with healed | eyes will look beyond it to the innocence that he beholds in you. |
| Tx:27.15 | can suffer. He holds not the proof of sin before his brother's | eyes. And thus he must have overlooked it and removed it from his |
| Tx:27.34 | be. Forgiveness vanishes and symbols fade, and nothing which the | eyes have ever seen or ears have heard remains to be perceived. |
| Tx:27.47 | saved it but stepped back because he was afraid of being healed? The | eyes of all the dying bring reproach, and suffering whispers, “What |
| Tx:27.48 | blessing. Life is given you to give the dying world. And suffering | eyes no longer will accuse, but shine in thanks to you who blessing |
| Tx:27.48 | you who blessing gave. The holy instant's radiance will light your | eyes and give them sight to see beyond all suffering and see Christ's |
| Tx:27.49 | it. The world of accusation is replaced by one in which all | eyes look lovingly upon the Friend who brought them their release. |
| Tx:27.56 | itself, holds all your memories and all your hopes. You use its | eyes to see, its ears to hear, and let it tell you what it is it |
| Tx:27.74 | death. The dream of guilt is fading from your sight, although your | eyes are closed. A smile has come to lighten up your sleeping face. |
| Tx:27.84 | go! It is not easy to perceive the jest when all around you do your | eyes behold its heavy consequences, but without their trifling cause. |
| Tx:28.50 | is a world established that is sick, and this the world the body's | eyes perceive. Here are the sounds it hears—the voices which its |
| Tx:28.50 | little able to perceive as it can judge or understand or know. Its | eyes are blind; its ears are deaf. It cannot think, and so it cannot |
| Tx:28.51 | to be sick? And what that He created not can be? Let not your | eyes behold a dream, your ears bear witness to illusion. They were |
| Tx:28.51 | and other sights which can be seen and heard and understood. For | eyes and ears are senses without sense, and what they see and hear |
| Tx:28.51 | make a witness to the world you want. Let not the body's ears and | eyes perceive these countless fragments seen within the gap which you |
| Tx:29.24 | the dream—that you can help him waken and be sure his waking | eyes will rest on you. And in his glad salvation, you are saved. |
| Tx:31.62 | it so. But choose the Spirit, and all Heaven bends to touch your | eyes and bless your holy sight, that you may see the world of flesh |
| Tx:31.63 | of all this. And constancy arises in the sight of those whose | eyes salvation has released from looking at the cost of keeping guilt |
| Tx:31.64 | is your world salvation will undo and let you see another world your | eyes could never find. Be not concerned how this could ever be. You |
| Tx:31.66 | fit the picture as it was perceived before will change the world for | eyes that learn to see, because the concept of the self has changed. |
| Tx:31.66 | for you have forgiven it its trespasses and so it looks on you with | eyes that see as yours. Are you a body? So is all the world perceived |
| Tx:31.70 | of yourself, when you have reached the world beyond the sight your | eyes alone can offer you to see. For you will not interpret what you |
| Tx:31.78 | you see him apart from yours? For holiness is seen through holy | eyes that look upon the innocence within and thus expect to see it |
| Tx:31.78 | everywhere. He holds no concept of himself between his calm and open | eyes and what he sees. He brings the light to what he looks upon, |
| Tx:31.82 | Their savior stands, unknowing and unknown, beholding them with | eyes unopened. And they cannot see until he looks on them with seeing |
| Tx:31.82 | unopened. And they cannot see until he looks on them with seeing | eyes and offers them forgiveness with his own. Can you to whom God |
| Tx:31.93 | given you to join with him, and through the Christ in you unveil his | eyes and let him look upon the Christ in him. My brothers in |

| W1:I.4 | specified to the contrary, the exercise should be practiced with the | eyes open, since the aim is to learn how to see. The only rule that |
| W1:2.2 | sole criterion for applying the idea to anything is merely that your | eyes have lighted on it. Make no attempt to include anything |
| W1:8.4 | The exercises for today should be done with | eyes closed. This is because you actually cannot see anything, and it |
| W1:10.4 | Close your | eyes for these exercises and introduce them by repeating the idea for |

| W1:11.2 | eyes closed, and repeat the idea slowly to yourself. Then open your | eyes and look about, near or far, up or down—anywhere. During the |
| W1:11.3 | To do these exercises for maximum benefit, the | eyes should move from one thing to another fairly rapidly since they |
| W1:11.3 | we are trying to achieve. On concluding the exercises, close your | eyes and repeat the idea once more, slowly, to yourself. |
| W1:12.2 | These exercises are done with | eyes open. Look around you, this time quite slowly. Try to pace |
| W1:13.4 | practiced in a somewhat different way from the preceding ones. With | eyes closed, repeat today's idea to yourself. Then open your eyes and |
| W1:13.4 | With eyes closed, repeat today's idea to yourself. Then open your | eyes and look about you slowly, saying: |
| W1:13.6 | Repeat this statement to yourself as you look about. Then close your | eyes and conclude with: |
| W1:14.2 | The exercises for today are to be practiced with | eyes closed throughout. The mind searching period should be short, a |
| W1:14.4 | With | eyes closed, think of all the horrors in the world that cross your |
| W1:15.1 | “seeing” was made. This is the function you have given your body's | eyes. It is not seeing. It is image-making. It takes the place of |
| W1:15.3 | Do not be afraid of them. They are signs that you are opening your | eyes at last. They will not persist, because they merely symbolize |
| W1:15.4 | it to whatever you see around you, using its name and letting your | eyes rest on it as you say: |
| W1:16.4 | the idea for today, search your mind for a minute or so, with | eyes closed, and actively seek not to overlook any “little” thought |
| W1:17.2 | In applying today's idea, say to yourself, with | eyes open: |
| W1:19.3 | searching which today's exercises require are to be undertaken with | eyes closed. The idea is to be repeated first, and then the mind |
| W1:21.2 | periods, begin by repeating the idea to yourself. Then close your | eyes and search your mind carefully for situations past, present or |
| W1:22.3 | at least five times today, for at least a minute each time. As your | eyes move slowly from one object to another, from one body to |
| W1:23.6 | about you, repeat the idea slowly to yourself and then close your | eyes and devote about a minute to searching your mind for as many |
| W1:24.4 | repeating today's idea, followed by searching the mind with closed | eyes for unresolved situations about which you are currently |
| W1:25.6 | far, “important” or “unimportant,” “human” or “unhuman.” With your | eyes resting on each subject you so select, say, for example: |
| W1:25.8 | Say this quite slowly, without shifting your | eyes until you have completed the statement. Then move on to the next |
| W1:26.3 | that you are vulnerable, their effect is to weaken you in your own | eyes. Thus they have attacked your perception of yourself. And |
| W1:26.6 | should begin with repeating the idea for today, then closing your | eyes and reviewing the unresolved situations whose outcomes are |
| W1:28.8 | the applications should include the name of the subject which your | eyes happen to light on, and you should rest your eyes on it while |
| W1:28.8 | subject which your eyes happen to light on, and you should rest your | eyes on it while saying: |
| W1:30.4 | by space and distance, but it does not depend on the body's | eyes at all. The mind is its only source. |
| W1:30.5 | devote several practice periods to applying today's idea with your | eyes closed, using whatever subjects come to mind and looking within |
| W1:31.2 | slowly while repeating the idea two or three times. Then close your | eyes and apply the same idea to your inner world. You will escape |
| W1:32.3 | around at the world you see as outside yourself. Then close your | eyes and look around your inner world. Try to treat them both as |
| W1:33.2 | around the world you perceive as outside yourself, then close your | eyes and survey your inner thoughts with equal casualness. Try to |
| W1:33.5 | quietly and repeat the idea to yourself several times. Closing your | eyes will probably help in this form of application. |
| W1:34.2 | conducive to readiness. All applications should be done with your | eyes closed. It is your inner world to which the applications of |
| W1:35.2 | What you see while you believe you are in it is seen through the | eyes of the image. This is not vision. Images cannot see. |
| W1:35.4 | begin by repeating today's idea to yourself and then close your | eyes and search your mind for the various kinds of descriptive terms |
| W1:35.4 | are equally unreal because you do not look upon yourself through the | eyes of holiness. |
| W1:35.11 | occurs to you, merely repeat the idea to yourself with closed | eyes. |
| W1:36.3 | First, close your | eyes and repeat the idea for today several times slowly. Then open |
| W1:36.3 | and repeat the idea for today several times slowly. Then open your | eyes and look quite slowly about you, applying the idea specifically |
| W1:36.5 | Several times during these practice periods, close your | eyes and repeat the idea to yourself. Then open your eyes and |
| W1:36.5 | close your eyes and repeat the idea to yourself. Then open your | eyes and continue as before. |
| W1:36.6 | For the shorter exercise periods, close your | eyes and repeat the idea; look about you as you repeat it again; and |
| W1:36.6 | you repeat it again; and conclude with one more repetition with your | eyes closed. All applications should, of course, be made quite |
| W1:37.6 | Then close your | eyes and apply the idea to any person who occurs to you, using his |
| W1:37.8 | You may continue the practice period with your | eyes closed; you may open your eyes again and apply the idea for |
| W1:37.8 | the practice period with your eyes closed; you may open your | eyes again and apply the idea for today to your outer world if you so |
| W1:37.8 | period should conclude with a repetition of the idea with your | eyes closed and another following immediately with your eyes open. |
| W1:37.8 | with your eyes closed and another following immediately with your | eyes open. |
| W1:38.4 | to last a full five minutes, repeat the idea for today, close your | eyes, and then search your mind for any sense of loss or unhappiness |
| W1:39.6 | as usual by repeating today's idea to yourself. Then with closed | eyes search out your unloving thoughts in whatever form they appear— |
| W1:40.2 | You need not close your | eyes for the exercise periods, although you will probably find it |
| W1:40.2 | may be in a number of situations during the day when closing your | eyes would not be appropriate. Do not miss a practice period because |
| W1:41.5 | up if possible, sit quietly for some three to five minutes with your | eyes closed. At the beginning of the practice period, repeat today's |
| W1:41.8 | use today's idea often, repeating it very slowly and preferably with | eyes closed. Think of what you are saying; what the words mean. |
| W1:42.4 | Begin the practice period by repeating the idea for today slowly with | eyes open, looking about you. Then close your eyes and repeat the |
| W1:42.4 | for today slowly with eyes open, looking about you. Then close your | eyes and repeat the idea again, quite slowly. After this, try to |
| W1:42.7 | at all seem to come to mind. If such interferences occur, open your | eyes and repeat the thought once more while looking slowly about; |
| W1:42.7 | repeat the thought once more while looking slowly about; close your | eyes, repeat the idea once more, and then continue to look for |
| W1:42.8 | period alternating between slow repetitions of the idea with | eyes open, then closed, then open, and so on, than it is to strain in |
| W1:43.5 | of these practice periods, repeat the idea to yourself with | eyes open. Then glance around you for a short time, applying the idea |
| W1:43.8 | For the second and longer phase of the exercise period, close your | eyes, repeat today's idea again, and then let whatever relevant |
| W1:43.9 | I see through the | eyes of forgiveness. I see the world as blessed. The world can show |
| W1:43.11 | idea, or if you seem to be unable to think of anything, open your | eyes, repeat the first phase, and then try the second phase again. Do |
| W1:44.5 | speaking, this is the release from hell. Perceived through the ego's | eyes, it is loss of identity and a descent into hell. |
| W1:44.7 | Begin the practice period by repeating today's idea with your | eyes open and close them slowly, repeating the idea several times |
| W1:44.9 | in any form, pause long enough to repeat today's idea, keeping your | eyes closed unless you are aware of fear. In that case, you will |
| W1:44.9 | In that case, you will probably find it more reassuring to open your | eyes briefly. Try, however, to return to the exercises as soon as |
| W1:44.11 | Throughout the day, repeat the idea often with | eyes open or closed as seems better to you at the time. Do not |
| W1:45.6 | exercises for today by repeating the idea to yourself, closing your | eyes as you do so. Spend a fairly short period in thinking a few |
| W1:46.3 | periods by repeating today's idea to yourself, as usual. Close your | eyes as you do so and spend a minute or two in searching your mind |
| W1:47.4 | today, and longer and more frequent ones are urged. Close your | eyes and begin as usual by repeating today's idea. Then spend a |
| W1:48.2 | repeat the idea as often as possible. You can use it with your | eyes open at any time and in any situation. It is strongly |
| W1:48.2 | that you take a minute or so whenever possible to close your | eyes and repeat the idea slowly to yourself several times. It is |
| W1:49.5 | Do not forget to repeat today's idea very frequently. Do so with your | eyes open when necessary, but closed when possible. And be sure that |
| W1:49.5 | and repeat the idea for today slowly whenever you can, closing your | eyes on the world and realizing that you are inviting God's Voice to |
| W1:R1.4 | and the related comments, the exercises should be done with your | eyes closed and when you are alone in a quiet place if possible. This |
| W1:54.2 | from my thinking errors, so will the real world rise before my | eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My thoughts cannot be neither |
| W1:58.2 | the innocence that is the truth about me. Seen through understanding | eyes, the holiness of the world is all I see, for I can picture only |
| W1:59.3 | God is my strength. Vision is His gift. Let me not look to my own | eyes to see today. Let me be willing to exchange my pitiful illusion |
| W1:59.4 | from Him. It is these I choose when I try to see through the body's | eyes. Yet the vision of Christ has been given me to replace them. It |
| W1:60.6 | As I listen to God's Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I open my | eyes, His love lights up the world for me to see. As I forgive, His |
| W1:61.7 | think about these statements for a short while, preferably with your | eyes closed if the situation permits. Let a few related thoughts come |
| W1:62.5 | As often as you can, closing your | eyes if possible, say to yourself: |
| W1:63.5 | If you can close your | eyes, you will probably find it easier to let related thoughts come |
| W1:64.1 | Son, taking on a physical appearance. It is this which the body's | eyes look upon. |
| W1:64.2 | Nothing the body's | eyes seem to see can be anything but a form of temptation, since this |
| W1:64.9 | once devote ten or 15 minutes to reflecting on this with closed | eyes. Related thoughts will come to help you if you remember the |
| W1:64.11 | practice periods are required. At times, do the exercises with your | eyes closed, trying to concentrate on the thoughts you are applying. |
| W1:64.11 | on the thoughts you are applying. At other times keep your | eyes open after reviewing the thoughts and look slowly and |
| W1:65.5 | period, begin by reviewing the idea for today. Then close your | eyes, repeat the idea to yourself once again, and watch your mind |
| W1:65.14 | Sometimes close your | eyes as you practice, and sometimes keep them open and look about |
| W1:69.4 | Very quietly now, with your | eyes closed, try to let go of all the content which generally |
| W1:70.10 | Then devote a few minutes with your | eyes closed to reviewing some of the external places where you have |
| W1:72.14 | not listened to His Voice. We have used our grievances to close our | eyes and stop our ears. Now we would see and hear and learn. “What is |
| W1:72.20 | Then wait a minute or so in silence, preferably with your | eyes closed, and listen for His answer. |
| W1:74.11 | After you have cleared your mind in this way, close your | eyes and try to experience the peace to which your reality entitles |
| W1:74.15 | to find what you are seeking. A minute or two every half-hour, with | eyes closed if possible, would be well spent on this today. |
| W1:75.11 | there is a new beginning. Without the darkness of the past upon your | eyes, you cannot fail to see today. And what you see will be so |
| W1:77.4 | quite confidently that you are entitled to miracles. Closing your | eyes, remind yourself that you are asking only for what is rightfully |
| W1:78.1 | the miracle it would conceal. And as you raise it up before your | eyes, you will not see the miracle beyond. Yet all the while it waits |
| W1:78.2 | wait before the shield of hate, but lay it down and gently lift our | eyes in silence to behold the Son of God. |
| W1:78.10 | The body's | eyes are closed, and as you think of him who grieved you, let your |
| W1:79.12 | all judgment about what the problem is. If possible, close your | eyes for a moment and ask what it is. You will be heard and you will |
| W1:80.5 | let the peace that your acceptance brings be given you. Close your | eyes and receive your reward. Recognize that your problems have been |
| W1:R2.2 | them over slowly, several times if you wish, and then close your | eyes and listen. Repeat the first phase if you find your mind |
| W1:91.3 | to see what is not there instead. You do not doubt that the body's | eyes can see. You do not doubt the images they show you are reality. |
| W1:91.7 | Miracles are seen in light. The body's | eyes do not perceive the light. But I am not a body. What am I? |
| W1:91.13 | because Their strength is yours. Their strength becomes your | eyes that you may see. |
| W1:91.15 | Miracles are seen in light. Let me not close my | eyes because of this. |
| W1:92.1 | your idea of what seeing means is tied up with the body and its | eyes and brain. This is why you believe that you can change what you |
| W1:92.1 | by putting little bits of glass or other clear material before your | eyes held in a frame or placed against the eye. |
| W1:92.2 | beliefs that come from the conviction you are a body and the body's | eyes can see. You also believe the body's brain can think. If you but |
| W1:92.2 | let it go. Yet this is no more foolish than to believe the body's | eyes can see, the brain can think. |
| W1:92.3 | your weakness. It is your weakness that sees through the body's | eyes, peering about in darkness to behold the likeness of itself— |
| W1:92.3 | sad, the poor, the starving, and the joyless. These are seen through | eyes which cannot see and cannot bless. |
| W1:92.8 | and none who enters its abode can leave without a miracle before his | eyes and strength and light abiding in his heart. |
| W1:92.9 | your seeing, so you do not dwell on idle shadows that the body's | eyes provide for self-deception. Strength and light unite in you, and |
| W1:92.10 | today, and we will practice seeing in the light, closing the body's | eyes and asking truth to show us how to find the meeting place of |
| W1:93.14 | Then try to devote at least a minute or so to closing your | eyes and realizing that this is a statement of the truth about you. |
| W1:95.14 | Then close your | eyes and tell yourself again, slowly and thoughtfully, attempting to |
| W1:105.10 | So tell yourself “God's peace and joy are mine,” and close your | eyes a while, and let His Voice assure you that the words you speak |
| W1:108.2 | light which makes true vision possible is not the light the body's | eyes behold. It is a state of mind which has become so unified that |
| W1:108.10 | Then close your | eyes, and for five minutes think of what you would hold out to |
| W1:109.3 | it cannot solve. And no appearance but will turn to truth before the | eyes of you who rest in God. |
| W1:109.6 | You rest today. And as you close your | eyes, sink into stillness. Let these periods of rest and respite |
| W1:121.4 | no mistakes, but only sins. It looks upon the world with sightless | eyes and shrieks as it beholds its own projections rising to attack |
| W1:121.11 | Now close your | eyes and see him in your mind and look at him a while. Try to |
| W1:122.2 | All this forgiveness offers you, and more. It sparkles in your | eyes as you awake and gives you joy with which to meet the day. It |
| W1:122.3 | which hides the face of Christ from those who look with unforgiving | eyes upon the world. It lets you recognize the Son of God and clears |
| W1:122.8 | Open your | eyes today, and look upon a happy world of safety and of peace. |
| W1:122.8 | take the place of hell. In quietness it rises up to greet your open | eyes and fill your heart with deep tranquility as ancient truths, |
| W1:123.4 | in gratitude we lift our hearts above despair and raise our thankful | eyes, no longer looking downward to the dust. We sing the song of |
| W1:124.4 | We feel Him in our hearts. Our minds contain His thoughts; our | eyes behold His loveliness in all we look upon. Today we see only the |
| W1:124.11 | joy too deep for you to comprehend, a sight too holy for the body's | eyes to see, and yet you can be sure someday, perhaps today, perhaps |
| W1:125.9 | above the thinking of the world and free your vision from the body's | eyes. Only be still and listen. You will hear the Word in which the |
| W1:126.10 | In silence close your | eyes upon the world which does not understand forgiveness and seek |
| W1:127.5 | not found in darkness and in death. Yet it is perfectly apparent to | eyes that see and ears that hear its Voice. |
| W1:127.9 | the past behind us, never more to be remembered. And we raise our | eyes upon a different present, where a future shines unlike the past |
| W1:128.7 | Give it ten minutes rest three times today. And when your | eyes are opened afterwards, you will not value anything you see as |
| W1:129.9 | Then close your | eyes upon the world you see, and in the silent darkness watch the |
| W1:129.10 | eyelids as you rest beyond the world of darkness. Here is light your | eyes cannot behold. And yet your mind can see it plainly and can |
| W1:130.10 | For though it is perception, it is not the kind of seeing that your | eyes alone have ever seen before. And you will know God's strength |
| W1:130.12 | Accept a little part of hell as real, and you have damned your | eyes and cursed your sight, and what you will behold is hell indeed. |
| W1:131.14 | For several minutes watch your mind and see, although your | eyes are closed, the senseless world you think is real. Review the |
| W1:134.7 | shrieks of sinners mad with guilt. It looks on them with quiet | eyes and merely says to them, “My brother, what you think is not the |
| W1:137.4 | truth and always will remain exactly as it has forever been. Yet | eyes accustomed to illusions must be shown that what they look upon |
| W1:138.12 | Before we close our | eyes in sleep tonight, we reaffirm the choice that we have made each |
| W1:R4.10 | two ideas assigned to you to be reviewed that day. Then close your | eyes and say them slowly to yourself. There is no hurry now, for you |
| W1:151.2 | see. You do not really question what is shown you through the body's | eyes. Nor do you ask why you believe it, even though you learned a |
| W1:151.3 | you judge the world you see? You place pathetic faith in what your | eyes and ears report. You think your fingers touch reality and close |
| W1:151.7 | He will not tell you that your brother should be judged by what your | eyes behold in him, nor what his body's mouth says to your ears, nor |
| W1:155.1 | though you smile more frequently. Your forehead is serene; your | eyes are quiet. And the ones who walk the world as you do recognize |
| W1:155.6 | that they hear you speak of nor illusion which you bring their | eyes to look on and their minds to grasp. Now can the truth, which |
| W1:157.6 | give experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in our | eyes which we can offer everyone that he may come the sooner to the |
| W1:158.11 | likeness shines with its immortal love. We practice seeing with the | eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ's vision |
| W1:161.7 | there is no death. Fear is insatiable, consuming everything its | eyes behold, seeing itself in everything, compelled to turn upon |
| W1:161.9 | This do the body's | eyes behold in one whom Heaven cherishes, the angels love, and God |
| W1:161.11 | you will not be willing to accept the witnesses your body's | eyes call forth. What you will see will sing to you of ancient |
| W1:161.14 | Give me your blessing, holy Son of God. I would behold you with the | eyes of Christ, and see my perfect sinlessness in you. |
| W1:163.2 | in its blighting grasp. All goals perceived but in its sightless | eyes. The frail, the helpless, and the sick bow down before its |
| W1:163.9 | Our Father, bless our | eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would look upon the |
| W1:164.1 | to look upon what is forever there—not in our sight, but in the | eyes of Christ. He looks past time and sees eternity as represented |
| W1:164.5 | in His judgment will a world unfold in perfect innocence before your | eyes. Now will you see it with the eyes of Christ. Now is its |
| W1:164.5 | in perfect innocence before your eyes. Now will you see it with the | eyes of Christ. Now is its transformation clear to you. |
| W1:165.5 | sight proves that you have exchanged your blindness for the seeing | eyes of Christ; your mind has come to lay aside denial and accept the |
| W1:166.7 | is not you. You heed them not. You go on your appointed way, with | eyes cast down lest you might catch a glimpse of truth and be |
| W1:167.10 | life is not as we imagine it. Who changes life because he shuts his | eyes or makes himself what he is not because he sleeps and sees in |
| W1:170.12 | to a new world unburdened by its weight; beheld not in its sightless | eyes but in the vision that your choice restored to you. |
| W1:170.13 | Now do your | eyes belong to Christ, and He looks through them. Now your voice |
| W1:R5.11 | the words I speak and give them to the world. You are my voice, my | eyes, my feet, my hands, through which I save the world. The Self |
| W1:181.5 | occur to us, our narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn our | eyes upon our own mistakes, which we will magnify and call our “sins.” |
| W1:181.9 | when this is all we seek for in the name of true perception, are the | eyes of Christ inevitably ours. And the love He feels for us becomes |
| W1:187.2 | For it is sure that if you give a finite thing away, your body's | eyes will not perceive it yours. Yet we have learned that things but |
| W1:188.1 | wait for Heaven? Those who seek the light are merely covering their | eyes. The light is in them now. Enlightenment is but a recognition, |
| W1:188.6 | Sit quietly and close your | eyes. The light within you is sufficient. It alone has power to give |
| W1:189.1 | There is a light in you the world cannot perceive. And with its | eyes you will not see this light, for you are blinded by the world. |
| W1:189.1 | not see this light, for you are blinded by the world. Yet you have | eyes to see it. It is there for you to look upon. It was not placed |
| W1:189.3 | reveals. It is so different from the world you see through darkened | eyes of malice and of fear that one belies the other. Only one can be |
| W1:191.12 | Then let the Son of God awaken from his sleep, and opening his holy | eyes return again to bless the world he made. In error it began. But |
| W1:192.3 | so close to waking that the light of day already shines in them. And | eyes already opening behold the joyful sights their offerings contain. |
| W1:192.7 | We are lost in mists of shifting dreams and fearful thoughts, our | eyes shut tight against the light, our minds engaged in worshipping |
| W1:193.11 | an unforgiveness hiding in the mind which sees the pain through | eyes the mind directs. |
| W1:200.3 | seek and seek again for hell, when you have but to look with open | eyes to find that Heaven lies before you, through a door that opens |
| W1:200.10 | underfoot. And you look up and on toward Heaven, with the body's | eyes but serving for an instant longer now. Peace is already |
| W1:R6.6 | a shorter path to the serenity and peace of God. We merely close our | eyes and then forget all that we thought we knew and understood. For |
| W1:218.1 | me. My condemnation keeps my vision dark, and through my sightless | eyes I cannot see the vision of my glory. Yet today I can behold this |
| W2:I.6 | given us by You. We look not backward now. We look ahead and fix our | eyes upon the journey's end. Accept these little gifts of thanks from |
| W2:237.2 | Christ is my | eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice of God today. |
| W2:WIW.2 | born, for knowledge could not cause such insane thoughts. But | eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely. Now mistakes become quite |
| W2:WIW.5 | must save the world. For we who made it must behold it through the | eyes of Christ, that what was made to die be restored to Everlasting |
| W2:WIS.1 | where the truth should be and where it really is. Sin gave the body | eyes, for what is there the sinless would behold? What need have they |
| W2:263.2 | of Heaven, let us look on all we see through holy vision and the | eyes of Christ. Let all appearances seem pure to us that we may pass |
| W2:270.1 | Your gift to me, and it has power to translate all that the body's | eyes behold into the sight of a forgiven world. How glorious and |
| W2:270.2 | hearts, and through them peace will come to everyone. Christ is our | eyes today. And through His sight, we offer healing to the world |
| W2:WIC.2 | and dreams are over. He remains untouched by anything the body's | eyes perceive. For though in Him His Father placed the means for your |
| W2:290.1 | I look upon what is not there, my present happiness is all I see. | Eyes that begin to open see at last. And I would have Christ's vision |
| W2:WIRW.1 | for what is opposite to what you made. Your world is seen through | eyes of fear and brings the witnesses of terror to your mind. The |
| W2:WIRW.1 | to your mind. The real world cannot be perceived except through | eyes forgiveness blesses, so they see a world where terror is |
| W2:WIRW.2 | The real world shows a world seen differently, through quiet | eyes and with a mind at peace. Nothing but rest is there. There are |
| W2:WIRW.4 | of sin and guilt is over and God's Son no longer sleeps. His waking | eyes perceive the sure reflection of his Father's Love, the certain |
| W2:293.2 | from all past mistakes. And I would see only this world before my | eyes today. |
| W2:295.1 | Christ asks that He may use my | eyes today and thus redeem the world. He asks this gift that He may |
| W2:295.2 | a gift of me, and one I give that it be given me. Help me to use the | eyes of Christ today and thus allow the Holy Spirit's love to bless |
| W2:WISC.5 | Second Coming will be soon, but do not rest with that. It needs your | eyes and ears and hands and feet. It needs your voice. And most of |
| W2:301.1 | only what You will. Let me today behold it uncondemned through happy | eyes forgiveness has released from all distortion. Let me see Your |
| W2:302.1 | Father, our | eyes are opening at last. Your holy world awaits us, as our sight is |
| W2:304.1 | outward. I would bless the world by looking on it through the | eyes of Christ. And I will look upon the certain signs that all my |
| W2:313.1 | love will come wherever it is asked. This vision is Your gift. The | eyes of Christ look on a world forgiven. In His sight are all its |
| W2:WIM.3 | Forgiveness is the home of miracles. The | eyes of Christ deliver them to all they look upon in mercy and in |
| W2:WAI.4 | Ours are the | eyes through which Christ's vision sees a world redeemed from every |
| W2:352.1 | and judges not. Through this I come to You. Judgment will bind my | eyes and make me blind. Yet love, reflected in forgiveness here, |
| W2:E.6 | we would love him, and He teaches us how to behold him through His | eyes and love him as He does. You do not walk alone. God's angels |
| M:4.1 | teachers are not at all alike. They do not look alike to the body's | eyes, they come from vastly different backgrounds, their experiences |
| M:8.1 | standards completely upsets the mental balance. What the body's | eyes behold is only conflict. Look not to them for peace and |
| M:8.3 | in the world outside. Yet it is surely the mind that judges what the | eyes behold. It is the mind that interprets the eyes' messages and |
| M:8.3 | that judges what the eyes behold. It is the mind that interprets the | eyes' messages and gives them “meaning.” And this meaning does not |
| M:8.3 | hierarchy of values is projected outward, and it sends the body's | eyes to find it. The body's eyes will never see except through |
| M:8.3 | outward, and it sends the body's eyes to find it. The body's | eyes will never see except through differences. Yet it is not the |
| M:8.4 | is here correction must be made. The mind classifies what the body's | eyes bring to it according to its preconceived values, judging where |
| M:8.6 | The body's | eyes will continue to see differences, but the mind which has let |
| M:8.6 | will be those who seem to be “sicker” than others, and the body's | eyes will report their changed appearances as before. But the mind |
| M:16.4 | not the major concern. One can easily sit still an hour with closed | eyes and accomplish nothing. One can as easily give God only an |
| M:16.5 | period—not more than a moment will do—in which you close your | eyes and think of God. |
| M:18.2 | the Word of God to listening ears and bring Christ's vision to the | eyes that see. Now is He free to teach all minds the truth of what |
| M:18.3 | insane belief is taken as replacement for God's Word. The body's | eyes now “see”; its ears alone are thought to hear. Its little space |
| M:19.3 | stem from injustice. Here is the lens which, held before the body's | eyes, distorts perception and brings witness of the distorted world |
| M:23.5 | that he might give it to you. You do not love yourself. But in his | eyes your loveliness is so complete and flawless that he sees in it |
| M:23.5 | sees no limit and no stain to mar your beautiful perfection. In his | eyes Christ's vision shines in perfect constancy. He has remained |

| Tx:19.91 | hangs like a heavy veil before the face of Christ. Yet as His | face rises beyond it, shining with joy because He is in His Father's |
| Tx:19.91 | join with Him at last. For this dark veil, which seems to make the | face of Christ Himself like to a leper's and the bright rays of His |
| Tx:19.91 | a leper's and the bright rays of His Father's love which light His | face with glory appear as streams of blood, fades in the blazing |

| Tx:20.34 | the hands of every two who enter here to rest. And as they rest, the | face of Christ shines on them, and they remember the laws of God, |
| Tx:20.40 | and be glad. You will not think to judge him, for who would see the | face of Christ and yet insist that judgment still has meaning? For |
| Tx:20.42 | limitless forgiveness you will give each other already given; the | face of Christ you yet will look upon already seen. |

| Tx:24.54 | not your eyes be blinded by the veil of specialness that hides the | face of Christ from him, and you as well. And let the fear of God no |
| Tx:25.7 | The veil is lifted through its gentleness, and nothing hides the | face of Christ from its beholders. And both of you stand there, |
| Tx:25.18 | of darkness hides and casts a veil of light across the picture's | face, which but reflects the light that shines from it to its |
| Tx:25.18 | the light that shines from it to its Creator. Think not this | face was ever darkened because you saw it in a frame of death. God |
| Tx:26.27 | you stand is but the space that sin has left. And here you see the | face of Christ arising in its place. Who could behold the face of |

| Tx:26.78 | that a shadow held between your brother and yourself obscures the | face of Christ and memory of God. And would you trade Them for an |
| Tx:27.48 | and give them sight to see beyond all suffering and see Christ's | face instead. Healing replaces suffering. Who looks on one cannot |
| Tx:27.49 | that it might live. It will call forth its witnesses to show the | face of Christ to you who brought the sight to them by which they |

| Tx:29.54 | All forms of anti-Christ oppose the Christ and fall before His | face like a dark veil which seems to shut you off from Him, alone in |
| Tx:29.55 | This world of idols is a veil across the | face of Christ because its purpose is to separate your brother from |
| Tx:30.63 | hand they took, and they will look on Him Whose hand they hold. The | face of Christ is looked upon before the Father is remembered. For He |
| Tx:31.44 | but one of which the mind can recognize. The first presents the | face of innocence, the aspect acted on. It is this face that smiles |
| Tx:31.44 | presents the face of innocence, the aspect acted on. It is this | face that smiles and charms and even seems to love. It searches for |
| Tx:31.45 | to provide the love and shelter innocence deserves. And so this | face is often wet with tears at the injustices the world accords to |
| Tx:31.46 | The | face of innocence the concept of the self so proudly wears can |
| Tx:31.46 | innocence? No one who makes a picture of himself omits this | face, for he has need of it. The other side he does not want to see. |
| Tx:31.47 | Beneath the | face of innocence there is a lesson that the concept of the self was |
| Tx:31.47 | lesson in a terrible displacement and a fear so devastating that the | face which smiles above it must forever look away, lest it perceive |
| Tx:31.48 | to you as well, but this is kept still deeper in the mists below the | face of innocence. And in these shrouded vaults are all his sins and |
| Tx:31.52 | made of you seems most unlikely. Even if he did, who gave the | face of innocence to you? Is this your contribution? Who is, then, |
| Tx:31.75 | to judge what he beholds. And in this single vision does he see the | face of Christ and understands he looks on everyone as he beholds |
| Tx:31.76 | The veil across the | face of Christ, the fear of God and of salvation, and the love of |
| Tx:31.80 | I behold?” Then is the answer given. And the door held open for the | face of Christ to shine upon the one who asks in innocence to see |
| Tx:31.87 | of hell, but would release your minds from everything that hides His | face from you. His holiness is yours because He is the only power |
| Tx:31.88 | you raised an image of yourself before. For what appears to hide the | face of Christ is powerless before His majesty and disappears before |
| Tx:31.97 | faith, and not one spot of darkness still remains to hide the | face of Christ from anyone. Thy Will is done, complete and perfectly, |
| W1:7.11 | hand. I see only the past in that body. I see only the past in that | face. |
| W1:9.6 | I do not see that coat rack as it is now. I do not see that | face as it is now. I do not see that door as it is now. |
| W1:56.5 | truth remains unchanged. Behind every veil I have drawn across the | face of love, its light remains undimmed. Beyond all my insane wishes |
| W1:R2.3 | you and that you want it. Do not allow your intent to waver in the | face of distracting thoughts. Realize that, whatever form such |
| W1:100.2 | to whom He sends you. They will see their function in your shining | face and hear God calling to them in your happy laugh. |
| W1:100.7 | to everyone who looks on you and sees His message in your happy | face. We will prepare ourselves for this today in our five minute |
| W1:107.6 | the gift of perfect constancy and love which does not falter in the | face of pain but looks beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the gift |
| W1:122.3 | Forgiveness lets the veil be lifted up which hides the | face of Christ from those who look with unforgiving eyes upon the |
| W1:124.9 | mirror that this exercise will offer you. And you will see Christ's | face upon it, in reflection of your own. |
| W1:134.8 | truth. It is because of this that it becomes the undeceiver in the | face of lies, the great restorer of the simple truth. By its ability |
| W1:151.8 | it rests on certainty so great that doubt is meaningless before Its | face. Christ cannot doubt Himself. The Voice of God can only honor |
| W1:151.8 | unheeding of the body's witnesses before the rapture of His holy | face. |
| W1:151.10 | can look beyond these grim appearances and can behold the gentle | face of Christ in all of them. You will no longer doubt that only |
| W1:151.12 | Self and your Creator, Who is one with Him. So will you see the holy | face of Christ in everything and hear in everything no sound except |
| W1:157.9 | will we enter now, serenely unaware of everything except His shining | face and perfect Love. The vision of His face will stay with you, but |
| W1:157.9 | except His shining face and perfect Love. The vision of His | face will stay with you, but there will be an instant which |
| W1:161.12 | as you can in that same form to which you are accustomed. See his | face, his hands and feet, his clothing. Watch him smile, and see |
| W1:168.4 | covers all the world in love and watch fear disappear from every | face as hearts rise up and claim the light as theirs. What now |
| W1:169.6 | salvation—past all thought of time, forgiveness, and the holy | face of Christ. The Son of God has merely disappeared into His |
| W1:169.11 | in your experience to all who see the light that lingers on your | face. |
| W1:169.12 | What is the | face of Christ but his who went a moment into timelessness and |
| W1:187.8 | well. No form of sacrifice and suffering can long endure before the | face of one who has forgiven and has blessed himself. |
| W1:198.12 | the world forgotten, all its weird beliefs forgotten with it, as the | face of Christ appears unveiled at last in this one dream. This is |
| W1:198.12 | them guilty of, and see your innocence shining upon you from the | face of Christ. |
| W1:198.13 | thoughts that made no sense. Now is there tranquil light across the | face of earth, made quiet in a dreamless sleep. And now the Word of |
| W2:223.2 | Our Father, let us see the | face of Christ instead of our mistakes. For we who are Your holy Son |
| W2:229.1 | for my coming home that I will turn away no longer from the holy | face of Christ. And what I look upon attests the truth of the |
| W2:269.1 | I choose to see a world forgiven in which everyone shows me the | face of Christ and teaches me that what I look upon belongs to me, |
| W2:269.2 | our sight is blessed indeed. We share one vision as we look upon the | face of Him Whose Self is ours. We are one because of Him Who is the |
| W2:WIC.4 | to keep things separate, for what remains to see except Christ's | face? |
| W2:WIC.5 | And how long will this holy | face be seen, when it is but the symbol that the time for learning |
| W2:WIC.5 | has been reached at last? So therefore let us seek to find Christ's | face and look on nothing else. As we behold His glory will we know we |
| M:4.24 | things welcoming, for threat is gone. No clouds remain to hide the | face of Christ. Now is the goal achieved. Forgiveness is the final |
| M:13.4 | of children's toys? Does one whose vision has already glimpsed the | face of Christ look back with longing on a slaughter house? No one |
| M:22.4 | miracle of healing. He overlooks the mind and body, seeing only the | face of Christ shining in front of him, correcting all mistakes and |
| M:28.2 | the remembrance of God shines unimpeded across the world. Christ's | face is seen in every living thing, and nothing is held in darkness |
| M:28.5 | needed? What remains that vision could accomplish? We have seen the | face of Christ, His sinlessness, His love behind all forms, beyond |
| M:28.6 | the minds of those asleep and seeing there the vision of Christ's | face to take the place of what they dreamed. The thought of murder is |

| Tx:2.55 | devices are not lessons in themselves. Their purpose is merely to | facilitate the thinking of the learner. The most that a faulty use of |
| Tx:2.55 | The most that a faulty use of a learning device can do is to fail to | facilitate learning. It has no power in itself to introduce actual |
| Tx:2.66 | it becomes a serious obstruction to the very learning it should | facilitate. Only the mind is capable of illumination. The Soul is |
| Tx:3.51 | with the Father's. We can now make a distinction which will greatly | facilitate clarity in our subsequent statements. |
| Tx:19.89 | not to make of it an obstacle to peace but let You use it for me to | facilitate its coming. |
| W1:32.4 | More than five can be utilized if you find the exercises restful. To | facilitate this, select a time when few distractions are anticipated |

| M:21.1 | helpful, particularly for the beginner, in helping concentration and | facilitating the exclusion or at least the control of extraneous |
facilitation (1) | ||
| Tx:11.49 | to learning will be misinterpreted. For they are all for learning | facilitation, which this strange curriculum goal is against. If you |

fact (187) | ||
| Tx:1.70 | the equilibrium is temporarily experienced as unstable. However, the | fact is that nothing is less stable than an orientation that is |
| Tx:1.89 | of God, it is very apparent in the creations of man. It is, in | fact, the essential difference. A need implies lack by definition. It |
| Tx:1.102 | orientation can be extremely reliable, even if it is upside-down. In | fact, the more consistently upside-down it is, the more reliable it |
| Tx:2.1 | are not the first definitions which are given. Nevertheless, the | fact that each of them does appear in the dictionary should be |
| Tx:2.12 | in these statements implies any sort of level involvement or in | fact anything except one continuous line of creation in which all |
| Tx:2.15 | emphasized that he neither can nor has been able to do this. In this | fact lies the real justification for his escape from fear. The escape |
| Tx:2.34 | this section is that you can defend truth as well as error and, in | fact, much better. |
| Tx:2.47 | acceptance of the Atonement by everyone is only a matter of time. In | fact, both time and matter were created for this purpose. This |
| Tx:2.56 | it is not inherently open to misinterpretation. The body is merely a | fact in human experience. Its abilities can be and frequently are |
| Tx:2.59 | Atonement does not lie in the manner in which it is expressed. In | fact, if it is truly used, it will inevitably be expressed in |

| Tx:2.63 | the miracle need not await the right-mindedness of the receiver. In | fact, its purpose is to restore him to his right mind. It is |
| Tx:2.69 | arises, in the end, from an unwillingness to accept the unequivocal | fact that healing is necessary. Man is not willing to look on what he |
| Tx:2.98 | conflict through the concept of mastery of fear is meaningless. In | fact it asserts the power of fear by the simple assumption that it |
| Tx:3.16 | forced him out of the Garden of Eden. It is also responsible for the | fact that you may believe from time to time that I am misdirecting |
| Tx:3.17 | God Himself is not symbolic; He is | fact. The Atonement too is totally without symbolism. It is perfectly |
| Tx:3.22 | innocence. The lion and the lamb lying down together refers to the | fact that strength and innocence are not in conflict but naturally |
| Tx:3.31 | affirmation of truth. All your difficulties ultimately stem from the | fact that you do not recognize or know yourselves, each other, or |
| Tx:3.34 | “a vision of God” is a miracle rather than a revelation. The | fact that perception is involved at all removes the experience from |
| Tx:3.43 | right-minded or wrong-minded, and even this is subject to degrees, a | fact which clearly demonstrates a lack of association with knowledge. |
| Tx:3.47 | because light does abolish darkness merely by establishing the | fact that it is not there. The truth will always overcome error in |
| Tx:3.47 | perceives as its attack is merely his own vague recognition of the | fact that it can always be remembered, never having been destroyed. |
| Tx:3.59 | knows God completely. That is the miraculous power of the Soul. The | fact that each one has this power completely is a fact that is |
| Tx:3.59 | of the Soul. The fact that each one has this power completely is a | fact that is entirely alien to human thinking, in which if anyone has |
| Tx:3.63 | you will realize that judging them in any way is without meaning. In | fact, their meaning is lost to you precisely because you are judging |
| Tx:3.68 | the view that they created themselves. At least it acknowledges the | fact that some true authorship is necessary for existence. |
| Tx:3.76 | by a “father figure,” a particularly curious idea in view of the | fact that no one uses the term to refer to the physical father. It |
| Tx:4.16 | which you are not meeting. You know this, and you are afraid. In | fact, your egos have chosen to be afraid instead of meeting it. When |
| Tx:4.25 | as is physical interaction. There could be no better example of the | fact that the ego is an idea, though not a reality-based thought. |
| Tx:4.27 | The reaction of man to the self he made is not at all surprising. In | fact it duplicates in many ways how he will one day react to his real |
| Tx:4.31 | of other egos because it cannot establish the reality of itself. In | fact, its whole perception of other egos as real is only an attempt |
| Tx:4.38 | or rejected accordingly. If it is shown to be true, it becomes a | fact, after which no one attempts to evaluate it unless its status as |
| Tx:4.38 | after which no one attempts to evaluate it unless its status as | fact is questioned. Every idea to which the ego has accorded the |

| Tx:4.54 | of your release. God has given you everything. This is the one | fact that means the ego does not exist and which therefore makes it |
| Tx:4.56 | the Voice of God, it is because you do not choose to listen. The | fact that you do listen to the voice of your ego is demonstrated by |
| Tx:4.87 | the difference, but you are by no means convinced as yet. The very | fact that you are preoccupied with the idea of escaping from the ego |
| Tx:5.30 | I came into your minds because you had grown vaguely aware of the | fact that there is another way or another Voice. Having given this |
| Tx:5.55 | any of your brothers. You are more than your brother's keeper. In | fact, you do not want to keep him. You must learn to see him as he is |
| Tx:5.63 | of it that makes it real. If you enthrone the ego in it, the | fact that you have accepted it or allowed it to enter makes it your |
| Tx:5.76 | only by being shared. This quotation therefore emphasizes the | fact that vengeance cannot be shared. Give it therefore to the Holy |
| Tx:5.77 | as interpreted by the ego, is particularly vicious. It is used, in | fact, as an attempt to guarantee its survival beyond itself. |
| Tx:5.77 | in the Sonship. “The wicked shall perish” is merely a statement of | fact if the word “perish” is properly understood. Every loveless |
| Tx:5.95 | firm with yourselves in this, and keep yourselves fully aware of the | fact that the undoing process, which does not come from you, is |
| Tx:6.6 | is impossible and must be fully understood as an impossibility. In | fact unless it is fully understood as only that, I cannot serve as a |
| Tx:6.26 | by projecting it. By doing this unconsciously, you try to keep the | fact that you must have attacked yourself first out of awareness and |
| Tx:6.30 | change it now or ever. It is forever true. It is not a belief but a | fact. Anything that God create[s] is as true as He is. Its truth lies |
| Tx:6.47 | cannot understand the conflict until you fully understand one basic | fact that the ego does not know. The Holy Spirit does not speak |
| Tx:6.52 | It is curious that the perfect must now be perfected. In | fact, it is impossible. You must remember, however, that when you put |
| Tx:6.53 | therefore retain the central place in your perceived enslavement, a | fact which itself demonstrates that you are not enslaved. |
| Tx:6.74 | as always, the ego perceives the first lesson as insane. In | fact this is its only alternative here since the other one, which |
| Tx:6.81 | second step is easier than the first because it follows. The very | fact that you have accepted that is a demonstration of your growing |
| Tx:7.15 | alter the form of what he translates, never changes the meaning. In | fact, his whole purpose is to change the form so that the original |
| Tx:7.22 | of your learning and has applied them to a unified curriculum. The | fact that this was not the ego's reason for learning is totally |
| Tx:7.30 | answered. The answer merely undoes the question by establishing the | fact that to question reality is to question meaninglessly. That is |
| Tx:7.41 | occur unless the body has already been confused with the mind. This | fact, too, can be used either for healing or for magic, but you must |
| Tx:7.59 | knowledge. It perceives their threat as total, because it senses the | fact that all commitments the mind makes are total. Forced, |
| Tx:7.64 | problems in identification at any level are not problems of | fact. They are problems of understanding, since they mean that you |
| Tx:7.101 | recognize what is painful than you know what is joyful and are in | fact very apt to confuse the two. The Holy Spirit's main function is |
| Tx:8.7 | different ways, which might be possible except for the crucial | fact that both are teaching you about yourself. Your reality is |
| Tx:8.28 | to me are the reactions of the world to God. If you will accept the | fact that I am with you, you are denying the world and accepting God. |
| Tx:8.60 | why it is impossible, is the most depressing thing in the world. In | fact, it is ultimately why the world is depressing. The Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:8.90 | except illusions, since reality can only uphold truth. The very | fact that the Will of God, which is what you are, is perceived as |
| Tx:8.102 | The | fact that God is love does not require belief, but it does require |
| Tx:8.109 | are answered, and this must be true if no effort is wasted. The very | fact that one has asked the Holy Spirit for anything will ensure a |
| Tx:9.15 | to follow the Holy Spirit's plan of salvation in recognition of the | fact that you do not know what it is. His work is not your function, |
| Tx:9.81 | are your father because you are projecting onto them the fearful | fact that you made them to replace God. Yet when they seem to speak |
| Tx:9.84 | Him. You can give up the god of sickness for your brothers; in | fact, you would have to do so if you give him up for yourself. For if |
| Tx:9.96 | This was his alternative to joy, because he would not accept the | fact that, although he was a creator, he had been created. Yet the |
| Tx:10.34 | of the dawn of light. Remember also that the denial of this simple | fact takes many forms, and these you must learn to recognize and to |
| Tx:10.40 | surely learned by now that fear is not real. We have accepted the | fact already that its effects can be dispelled merely by denying |
| Tx:10.41 | by understanding that the term itself does not mean anything. In | fact, it contains exactly the contradiction in terms which makes it |
| Tx:10.64 | it is the symbol of joy. Its whole compelling power lies in the | fact that it represents what you want to be. The freedom to leave |
| Tx:11.2 | own ability to understand what you perceive. This is shown by the | fact that you react to your interpretations as if they were correct |
| Tx:11.13 | you learn of Him how to replace your dream of separation with the | fact of unity. For the separation is only the denial of union and, |
| Tx:11.25 | on having you do something you think you do not want to do. The very | fact of his insistence should tell you that he believes salvation |
| Tx:11.88 | will see. Yet you will not realize this until you accept the eternal | fact that God's Son is not guilty. He deserves only love because he |
| Tx:12.25 | it not be more desirable to have been wrong, even apart from the | fact that you were wrong? While it could perhaps be argued that death |
| Tx:13.1 | is the only therapist. He teaches that the past does not exist, a | fact which belongs to the sphere of knowledge and which therefore no |
| Tx:13.73 | is self-protection.] And they will fail to understand the simple | fact that what they do not want must hurt them. |
| Tx:14.28 | You cannot have them both, for each denies the other. Apart, this | fact is lost from sight, for each in a separate place can be endowed |
| Tx:14.28 | place can be endowed with firm belief. Bring them together, and the | fact of their complete incompatibility is instantly apparent. One |
| Tx:14.50 | held together by a sense of order which you establish. Yet the very | fact that you can do this and bring any order into chaos shows you |
| Tx:14.53 | know of it. The study of the ego is not the study of the mind. In | fact, the ego enjoys the study of itself and thoroughly approves the |
| Tx:14.53 | For their teacher is senseless, though careful to conceal this | fact behind a lot of words which sound impressive but which lack any |
| Tx:14.54 | for truth, the ego can no longer defend its lack of content. The | fact of union tells them it is not true. |
| Tx:14.67 | effects which only guiltlessness can bring and thus establishes the | fact that guiltlessness must be. |
| Tx:15.23 | too poor a gift to satisfy you. It is essential that you accept the | fact, and accept it gladly, that there is no form of littleness that |
| Tx:15.57 | so little faith in yourself because you are unwilling to accept the | fact that perfect love is in you. And so you seek without for what |
| Tx:15.59 | is strengthened by sharing. What you find difficult to accept is the | fact that, like your Father, you are an idea. And like Him, you can |
| Tx:15.87 | to give up every use the ego has for the body and to accept the | fact that the ego has no purpose you would share with it. For the ego |
| Tx:15.96 | You see no other alternatives, for you cannot accept the | fact that sacrifice gets nothing. Sacrifice is so essential to your |
| Tx:16.2 | proof that empathy as the ego uses it is destructive lies in the | fact that it is applied only to certain types of problems and in |
| Tx:16.5 | is strength in this sense only—to recognize and accept the | fact that you do not know is to recognize and accept the fact that He |
| Tx:16.5 | accept the fact that you do not know is to recognize and accept the | fact that He does know. You are not sure that He will do His part |
| Tx:16.23 | Does not the | fact that you have not learned what you have taught show you that you |
| Tx:16.33 | Love is not an illusion. It is a | fact. Where disillusionment is possible, there was not love but hate. |
| Tx:16.56 | Salvation lies in the simple | fact that illusions are not fearful because they are not true. They |
| Tx:17.40 | dark picture brought to light is not perceived as fearful, but the | fact that it is just a picture is brought home at last. And what you |
| Tx:17.57 | Holy Spirit's purpose is extremely simple, but it is unequivocal. In | fact in order to be simple, it must be unequivocal. The simple is |
| Tx:17.62 | Holy Spirit sees the situation as a whole. The goal establishes the | fact that everyone involved in it will play his part in its |

| Tx:18.15 | for truth. You do not take them seriously on awaking because the | fact that reality is so outrageously violated in them becomes |
| Tx:18.46 | to the other. The power of joining and its blessing lie in the | fact that it is now impossible for either of you to experience fear |
| Tx:20.16 | uphold it against reality. Knowledge requires no adjustment and in | fact is lost if any shift or change is undertaken. For this reduces |
| Tx:20.74 | need to do is recognize you did this. Once you accept this simple | fact and take unto yourself the power you gave them, you are released |
| Tx:21.49 | to those who want to hear it. Perception is a choice and not a | fact. But on this choice depends far more than you may realize as |

| Tx:21.64 | what you hold more dear than truth? Reason will tell you that this | fact is your release. Neither your brother nor yourself can be |

| Tx:26.21 | This is not your decision. It is but a simple statement of a simple | fact. But in this world, there are no simple facts because what is |
| Tx:26.36 | a hindrance can this dream be to where he really is? For this is | fact and does not change whatever dreams he has. Yet can he still |
| Tx:26.37 | whereon he stands? Is any echo from the past that he may hear a | fact in what is there to hear where he is now? And how much can his |
| Tx:26.76 | cause must be delayed until a future time is merely a denial of the | fact that consequence and cause must come as one. Look not to time |
| Tx:26.86 | sensible. And only some are seen as meaningless. And this denies the | fact that all are senseless—equally without a cause or consequence |

| Tx:30.31 | The second rule as well is but a | fact. For you and your advisor must agree on what you want before it |
| Tx:30.83 | all are made according to the roles the script assigns. The | fact they have no meaning in themselves is demonstrated by the ease |
| Tx:31.26 | your own. Whatever form his sins appear to take, it but obscures the | fact that you believe them to be yours and therefore meriting a |
| Tx:31.46 | can tolerate attack in self-defense, for is it not a well-known | fact the world deals harshly with defenseless innocence? No one who |
| W1:8.1 | time there is. It therefore cannot understand time and cannot, in | fact, understand anything. |
| W1:9.1 | as yet. However, understanding is not necessary at this point. In | fact, the recognition that you do not understand is a prerequisite |
| W1:10.6 | selection or judgment. Try to avoid classification of any kind. In | fact, if you find it helpful to do so, you might imagine that you are |
| W1:12.1 | The importance of this idea lies in the | fact that it contains a correction for a major perceptual distortion. |
| W1:14.7 | apart from His. Therefore, it has no meaning. In recognition of this | fact, conclude the practice periods by repeating today's idea: |
| W1:16.1 | see is the result of your thoughts. There is no exception to this | fact. Thoughts are not big or little, powerful or weak. They are |
| W1:19.2 | Today we are again emphasizing the | fact that minds are joined. This is rarely a wholly welcome idea at |
| W1:19.2 | and may even be regarded as an “invasion of privacy.” Yet it is a | fact that there are no private thoughts. Despite your initial |
| W1:28.5 | You could, in | fact, gain vision from just that table if you could withdraw all your |
| W1:29.1 | or in itself. And it explains why nothing you see means anything. In | fact, it explains every idea we have used thus far and all subsequent |
| W1:41.7 | It is quite possible to reach God. In | fact it is very easy because it is the most natural thing in the |
| W1:42.7 | thought that is clearly related to the idea is suitable. You may, in | fact, be astonished at the amount of course-related understanding |
| W1:43.14 | equally applicable to strangers and to those you know well. Try, in | fact, not to make distinctions of this kind at all. |
| W1:48.1 | The idea for today simply states a | fact. It is not a fact to those who believe in illusions, but |
| W1:48.1 | The idea for today simply states a fact. It is not a | fact to those who believe in illusions, but illusions are not facts. |
| W1:53.6 | It is my thoughts which tell me where I am and what I am. The | fact that I see a world in which there is suffering and loss and |
| W1:55.2 | death. This cannot be what God created for His beloved Son. The very | fact that I see such things is proof that I do not understand God. |
| W1:66.4 | practice period today has as its purpose your acceptance of the | fact that not only is there a very real connection between the |
| W1:71.12 | to your willingness to hear His Voice. Refuse not to hear. The very | fact that you are doing the exercises proves that you have some |
| W1:72.2 | The ego's fundamental wish is to replace God. In | fact, the ego is the physical embodiment of this wish. For it is this |
| W1:72.6 | body's apparent reality makes this view of God quite convincing. In | fact, if the body were real, it would be difficult indeed to escape |
| W1:77.5 | done. In doing this, you do not really ask for anything. You state a | fact that cannot be denied. |
| W1:77.6 | Holy Spirit cannot but assure you that your request is granted. The | fact that you accepted must be so. There is no room for doubt and |
| W1:77.6 | real question at last. The answer is a simple statement of a simple | fact. You will receive the assurance that you seek. |
| W1:77.7 | will be frequent and will also be devoted to a reminder of a simple | fact. Tell yourself often today: |
| W1:80.1 | accomplished. Freedom from conflict has been given you. Accept that | fact, and you are ready to take your rightful place in God's plan for |
| W1:96.2 | The | fact that truth and illusion cannot be reconciled, no matter how you |
| W1:131.18 | a time of grace for you and for the world. If you forget this happy | fact, remind yourself with this: |
| W1:133.13 | is nothing but a screen of smoke which hides the very simple | fact that no decision can be difficult. |
| W1:134.2 | what forgiveness means is easily corrected when you can accept the | fact that pardon is not asked for what is true. It must be limited to |
| W1:136.6 | Mistake this not for | fact. Defenses must make facts unrecognizable. They aim at doing |
| W1:136.14 | It is this | fact which demonstrates that time is an illusion. For it lets you |
| W1:R4.4 | This is a | fact and represents the truth of what you are and what your Father |
| W1:187.1 | No one can give unless he has. In | fact, giving is proof of having. We have made this point before. What |
| W1:190.1 | in any form, it is a proof of self-deception. It is not a | fact at all. There is no form it takes which will not disappear if |
| W1:191.4 | set free. In this one truth are all illusions gone. In this one | fact is sinlessness proclaimed to be forever part of everything, the |
| W1:196.2 | can be found in the idea we practice for today. It may in | fact appear to be a sign that punishment can never be escaped because |
| W1:200.1 | You will not find peace except the peace of God. Accept this | fact, and save yourself the agony of yet more bitter disappointments, |
| W2:304.1 | unless it is His vision that I use. Perception is a mirror, not a | fact. And what I look on is my state of mind reflected outward. I |
| W2:359.1 | which have no real effects on us. Sin is impossible, and on this | fact forgiveness rests upon a certain base more solid than the shadow |
| M:3.5 | perfect. This does not mean that they necessarily recognize this; in | fact, they generally do not. They may even be quite hostile to each |
| M:4.3 | their function rests. Perception is the result of learning. In | fact, perception is learning, because cause and effect are never |
| M:4.10 | fully reflected. From here the way to Heaven is open and easy. In | fact, it is here. Who would “go” anywhere if peace of mind is already |
| M:4.18 | to the teacher of God. It is not the usual meaning of the word; in | fact, it is a meaning that must be learned and learned very |
| M:6.3 | would have the gift. Trust is an essential part of giving; in | fact, it is the part that makes sharing possible, the part that |
| M:10.3 | in the usual sense is impossible. This is not an opinion, but a | fact. In order to judge anything rightly, one would have to be fully |
| M:11.1 | if His promises are to be accepted. What the world is, is but a | fact. You cannot choose what this should be. But you can choose how |
| M:13.2 | It takes great learning both to realize and to accept the | fact that the world has nothing to give. What can the sacrifice of |
| M:16.10 | substitute for the Will of God. In simple statement, it is to this | fact that the teacher of God devotes his day. Each substitute he may |
| M:17.2 | in a way that reinforces it. Nor is this always obvious. It can, in | fact, be easily concealed beneath a wish to help. It is this double |
| M:17.4 | Perhaps it will be helpful to remember that no one can be angry at a | fact. It is always an interpretation that gives rise to negative |
| M:17.5 | can oppose the Will of God and succeed. That this can hardly be a | fact is obvious. Yet that it can be believed as fact is surely so. |
| M:17.5 | this can hardly be a fact is obvious. Yet that it can be believed as | fact is surely so. And herein lies the birthplace of guilt. Who |
| M:17.6 | defenses? Magic again must help. Forget the battle. Accept it as a | fact, and then forget it. Do not remember the impossible odds against |
| M:17.8 | for such it is. If anger comes from an interpretation and not a | fact, it is never justified. Once this is even dimly grasped, the way |
| M:17.9 | there, yet is the anger certain witness that you do believe in it as | fact. Now is escape impossible until you see you have responded to |
| M:18.1 | until the teacher of God has ceased to confuse interpretation with | fact or illusion with truth. If he argues with his pupil about a |
| M:21.5 | irrelevant to the presented problem as he perceives it, and may, in | fact, confront him with a situation that appears to be very |
| M:22.5 | and can hardly offer it to his brother in Christ's Name. He will, in | fact, be unable to recognize his brother at all, for his Father did |
| M:29.1 | to answer all questions that both teacher and pupil may raise. In | fact, it covers only a few of the more obvious ones, in terms of a |

| Tx:17.62 | segments of the situation and deal with them separately, for it has | faith in separation and not in wholeness. |
| Tx:17.63 | not be experienced except in fantasy. Truth has not come because | faith has been denied, being withheld from where it rightfully |
| Tx:17.64 | for aspects of the situation are the witnesses to your lack of | faith. They demonstrate that you did not believe that the situation |
| Tx:17.64 | and the problem were in the same place. The problem was the lack of | faith, and it is this you demonstrate when you remove it from its |
| Tx:17.64 | As a result, you do not see the problem. Had you not lacked the | faith it could be solved, the problem would be gone. And the |
| Tx:17.65 | There is no problem in any situation that | faith will not solve. There is no shift in any aspect of the problem |
| Tx:17.65 | been solved, but you have removed yourself from the solution? Yet | faith must be where something has been done and where you see it |
| Tx:17.66 | the situation, which then becomes the justification for your lack of | faith. You will make this error, but be not at all concerned with |
| Tx:17.66 | with that. The error does not matter. Faithlessness brought to | faith will never interfere with truth. But faithlessness used against |
| Tx:17.66 | with truth. But faithlessness used against truth will always destroy | faith. If you lack faith, ask that it be restored where it was lost |
| Tx:17.66 | used against truth will always destroy faith. If you lack | faith, ask that it be restored where it was lost and seek not to have |

| Tx:17.67 | because your faith in one another was so limited and little. Your | faith must grow to meet the goal that has been set. The goal's |
| Tx:17.67 | goal's reality will call this forth, for you will see that peace and | faith will not come separately. What situation can you be in without |
| Tx:17.67 | faith will not come separately. What situation can you be in without | faith and remain faithful to each other? |
| Tx:17.69 | The goal of illusion is as closely tied to faithlessness as | faith to truth. If you lack faith in anyone to fulfill, and |
| Tx:17.69 | is as closely tied to faithlessness as faith to truth. If you lack | faith in anyone to fulfill, and perfectly, his part in any situation |
| Tx:17.69 | is holy unless its holiness goes with it everywhere. As holiness and | faith go hand in hand, so must its faith go everywhere with it. The |
| Tx:17.69 | it everywhere. As holiness and faith go hand in hand, so must its | faith go everywhere with it. The goal's reality will call forth and |

| Tx:17.71 | truth. There is no cause for faithlessness, but there is a Cause for | faith. That Cause has entered any situation which shares Its purpose. |
| Tx:17.72 | Enter each situation with the | faith that you give to each other, or you are faithless to your own |

| Tx:17.72 | others to share your purpose, as this same purpose called forth the | faith in you. And you will see the means you once employed to lead |

| Tx:17.74 | the same suspension of faithlessness, withheld and left unused, that | faith might answer to the call of truth. The holy instant is the |
| Tx:17.74 | meaning of every relationship and every situation, seen as a whole. | Faith has accepted every aspect of the situation, and faithlessness |
| Tx:17.75 | Let it encompass every situation and bring you peace. Not even | faith is asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it enter, and it |
| Tx:17.75 | nothing. Let it enter, and it will call forth and secure for you the | faith you need for peace. But rise you not against it, for against |
| Tx:17.76 | to make a holy instant of every situation? For such is the gift of | faith, freely given wherever faithlessness is laid aside unused. And |
| Tx:17.76 | demonstrating its reality. What has been demonstrated has called for | faith and has been given it. Now it becomes a fact from which faith |
| Tx:17.76 | for faith and has been given it. Now it becomes a fact from which | faith can no longer be withheld. The strain of refusing faith to |

| Tx:17.76 | enormous and far greater than you realize. But to answer truth with | faith entails no strain at all. |
| Tx:17.77 | And it was nothing but the intolerable strain of refusing to give | faith to truth and see its evident reality. |

| Tx:17.79 | of peace cannot be accepted apart from its conditions, and you had | faith in it, for no one accepts what he does not believe is real. |
| Tx:18.9 | Him bring it here, where you would have it be. Give Him but a little | faith in each other, to help Him show you that no substitute you made |
| Tx:18.27 | disappear before you now. Be tempted not to snatch away the gift of | faith you offered to each other. You will succeed only in frightening |
| Tx:18.42 | Him remove all fear and hatred and to be forgiven. On your little | faith, joined with His understanding, He will build your part in the |

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

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

| Tx:19.15 | will keep your little kingdoms barren and separate, so will | faith help the Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy |
| Tx:19.15 | the ground for the most holy garden which He would make of it. For | faith brings peace, and so it calls on truth to enter and make lovely |
| Tx:19.15 | lovely what has already been prepared for loveliness. Truth follows | faith and peace, completing the process of making lovely which they |

| Tx:20.73 | and murder and destroy themselves, are wholly unreal? Could you have | faith in what you see if you accepted this? And would you see it? |
| Tx:21.21 | you worship. And anything which threatens this seems to attack your | faith, for here is it invested. Think not that you are faithless, for |
| Tx:21.22 | The Holy Spirit can give you | faith in holiness and vision to see it easily enough. But you have |
| Tx:21.23 | Undoing is not your task, but it is up to you to welcome it or not. | Faith and desire go hand in hand, for everyone believes in what he |
| Tx:21.24 | is no better demonstration of the power of wanting, and therefore of | faith, to make its goals seem real and possible. Faith in the unreal |
| Tx:21.24 | and therefore of faith, to make its goals seem real and possible. | Faith in the unreal leads to adjustments of reality to make it fit |
| Tx:21.26 | what you have made can tell you what you see and feel and place your | faith in its ability to do so, you are denying your Creator and |
| Tx:21.30 | accepts. This it will follow, grimly or happily, but always with | faith and with the persistence that faith inevitably brings. The |

| Tx:21.31 | move mountains? This is indeed a little feat for such a power. For | faith can keep the Son of God in chains as long as he believes he is |
| Tx:21.31 | it will be simply because he no longer believes in them, withdrawing | faith that they can hold him and placing it in his freedom instead. |
| Tx:21.31 | placing it in his freedom instead. It is impossible to place equal | faith in opposite directions. What faith you give to sin you take |
| Tx:21.31 | It is impossible to place equal faith in opposite directions. What | faith you give to sin you take away from holiness. And what you offer |
| Tx:21.32 | Faith and belief and vision are the means by which the goal of | |
| Tx:21.32 | leads you to the real world and away from all illusions where your | faith was laid. This is His direction, the only one He ever sees. And |
| Tx:21.32 | ever sees. And when you wander, He reminds you there is but one. His | faith and His belief and vision are all for you. And when you have |
| Tx:21.32 | instead of yours, you will have need of them no longer. For | faith and vision and belief are meaningful only before the state of |
| Tx:21.33 | It is impossible that the Son of God lack | faith, but he can choose where he would have it be. Faithlessness is |
| Tx:21.33 | can choose where he would have it be. Faithlessness is not a lack of | faith, but faith in nothing. Faith given to illusions does not lack |
| Tx:21.33 | where he would have it be. Faithlessness is not a lack of faith, but | faith in nothing. Faith given to illusions does not lack power, for |
| Tx:21.33 | it be. Faithlessness is not a lack of faith, but faith in nothing. | Faith given to illusions does not lack power, for by it does the Son |
| Tx:21.33 | that he is powerless. Thus is he faithless to himself, but strong in | faith in his illusions about himself. For faith, perception, and |
| Tx:21.33 | to himself, but strong in faith in his illusions about himself. For | faith, perception, and belief you made as means for losing certainty |
| Tx:21.33 | and finding sin. This mad direction was your choice, and by your | faith in what you chose, you made what you desired. |
| Tx:21.34 | a holy relationship is all you want to see. Then will you give your | faith to holiness, desiring and believing in it because of your |
| Tx:21.35 | Faith and belief become attached to vision, as all the means that | |
| Tx:21.35 | because the means for sin are dear to you. And so the body has your | faith and your belief. But holiness would set your brother free, |
| Tx:21.36 | to look upon their brothers in holiness, the power of belief and | faith goes far beyond the body, supporting vision, not obstructing |
| Tx:21.36 | not obstructing it. But first they chose to recognize how much their | faith had limited their understanding of the world, desiring to place |
| Tx:21.36 | given them. The miracles which follow this decision are also born of | faith. For all who choose to look away from sin are given vision and |
| Tx:21.37 | is at hand. Join your awareness to what has been already joined. The | faith you give each other can accomplish this. For He Who loves the |
| Tx:21.38 | Your | faith in sacrifice has given it great power in your sight, except you |
| Tx:21.40 | light of vision, it is looked upon quite differently. You can have | faith in it to serve the Holy Spirit's goal and give it power to |
| Tx:21.40 | blind to see. But in their seeing, they look past it, as do you. The | faith and the belief you gave it belongs beyond. You gave perception |
| Tx:21.40 | you gave it belongs beyond. You gave perception and belief and | faith from mind to body. Let them now be given back to what produced |

| Tx:21.41 | and faith in sin. Its temples do not shake because of this. Your | faith that sin is there but witnesses to your desire that it be there |
| Tx:21.44 | to look on much of your insanity and recognize its madness. Your | faith is moving inward, past insanity and on to reason. And what your |

| Tx:21.58 | come from something that you do not know but must belong to you? | Faith and belief, upheld by reason, cannot fail to lead to changed |
| Tx:21.74 | Yet hate must have a target. There can be no | faith in sin without an enemy. Who that believes in sin would dare |
| Tx:22.4 | can teach! Here is belief in differences undone. Here is the | faith in differences shifted to sameness. [And here is sight of |
| Tx:22.5 | not yourself. You can indeed believe this, and you do. And you have | faith in this and see much evidence on its behalf. And where, you |

| Tx:22.21 | is no point in trying to avoid this one decision. It must be made. | Faith and belief can fall to either side, but reason tells you that |
| Tx:22.41 | you come among them, offering Christ's forgiveness to dispel their | faith in sin. |

| Tx:23.39 | From the belief in sin, the | faith in chaos must follow. It is because it follows that it seems to |
| Tx:23.46 | will shelter you. Not one illusion of protection stands against the | faith in murder. Here stands the body, torn between the natural |
| Tx:24.5 | cherished as a hidden belief, to be defended though unrecognized, is | faith in specialness. This takes many forms but always clashes with |
| Tx:24.34 | Specialness is a lack of trust in anyone except yourself. | Faith is invested in yourself alone. Everything else becomes your |
| Tx:24.40 | for you. Nor is it possible that you can wish for something and lack | faith that it is so. Wishing makes real, as surely as does will |
| Tx:25.55 | that everything that meets this one demand is worthy of your | faith. But nothing else. What is not love is sin, and either one |
| Tx:25.61 | Here is sanity restored. And on this single rock of truth can | faith in God's eternal saneness rest in perfect confidence and |

| Tx:25.64 | one divided still against himself would find impossible. Have little | faith that wisdom could be found in such a state of mind. But be you |
| Tx:25.64 | found in such a state of mind. But be you thankful that only little | faith is asked of you. What but a little faith remains to those who |

| W1:161.5 | needs no symbols, being true. But fear attaches to specifics, being | false. |
| W1:163.6 | one thought entirely cannot be true unless its opposite is proven | false. |
| W1:167.9 | power which it does not have, a foreign state it cannot enter, or a | false condition not within its Source, it merely seems to go to sleep |
| W1:170.3 | inescapable. Lay down your arms, and only then do you perceive it | false. |
| W1:186.4 | All | false humility we lay aside today that we may listen to God's Voice |
| W1:186.5 | only one to be released from the imprisonment your plan to prove the | false is true has brought to you. Accept the plan you did not make |
| W1:189.7 | yourself. Empty your mind of everything it thinks is either true or | false or good or bad, of every thought it judges worthy and all the |
| W1:190.1 | Can such projections be attested to? Can they be anything but wholly | false? |
| W1:200.3 | To ask for what you have already must succeed. To ask that what is | false be true can only fail. Forgive yourself for vain imaginings, |
| W1:200.10 | further. You have come to where the road is carpeted with leaves of | false desires, fallen from the trees of hopelessness you sought |
| W2:WF.1 | And in this view are all your sins forgiven. What is sin except a | false idea about God's Son? Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and |
| W2:228.1 | makes impossible? Shall I accept as true what He proclaims as | false? Or shall I take His Word for what I am since He is my Creator |
| W2:239.1 | Let not the truth about ourselves today be hidden by a | false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the gifts our Father |
| W2:WIW.1 | The world is | false perception. It is born of error, and it has not left its |
| W2:300.1 | possessed, or even grasped. Yet this is also the idea that lets no | false perception keep us in its hold nor represent more than a |
| W2:301.2 | we did not understand. But we have learned the world we saw was | false, and we will look upon God's world today. |
| W2:WILJ.1 | Son of God the gift to hear the Voice for God proclaim that what is | false is false and what is true has never changed. And this the |
| W2:WILJ.1 | the gift to hear the Voice for God proclaim that what is false is | false and what is true has never changed. And this the judgment is in |
| W2:334.1 | are gone, even while they are woven out of thoughts that rest on | false perception. Let me not accept such meager gifts again today. |
| W2:WIM.1 | looks on devastation and reminds the mind that what it sees is | false. It undoes error but does not attempt to go beyond perception |
| M:7.5 | of inadequacy. Perhaps there is a guilty embarrassment stemming from | false humility. The form of the mistake is not important. What is |
falsehood (1) | ||
| W1:152.5 | This is the all-inclusiveness which sets the truth apart from | falsehood, and the false kept separate from the truth as what it is. |

| Tx:2.110 | The term “Last Judgment” is frightening not only because it has been | falsely projected onto God, but also because of the association of |
| Tx:6.9 | much less extreme temptations to misperceive and not to accept them | falsely as justifications for anger. |
| Tx:6.84 | undoing is necessary only in your mind so that you cannot project | falsely. God Himself has established what you can project with |
| Tx:9.9 | he is not, and you cannot know what you are, because you see him | falsely. Remember always that your identity is shared and that its |
| W1:92.5 | Strength is the truth about you; weakness is an idol | falsely worshiped and adored that strength may be dispelled and |
| W1:151.14 | Mind Which saw the truth in it and failed to be deceived by what was | falsely added. All the threads of fantasy are gone, and what remains |
| W1:154.1 | Let us today be neither arrogant nor | falsely humble. We have gone beyond such foolishness. We cannot judge |
| W2:WIW.2 | not cause such insane thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears hear | falsely. Now mistakes become quite possible, for certainty has gone. |
| W2:311.1 | understand because it cannot see totality and therefore judges | falsely. Let us not use it today but make a gift of it to Him Who has |
| W2:323.2 | is the letting go of self-deceptions and of images we worshiped | falsely—truth returns to us in wholeness and in joy. We are |

| Tx:14.19 | when they are brought together, the truth of one must make the | falsity of its opposite perfectly clear. Keep not guilt and |
| Tx:17.60 | has brought you closer to the Holy Spirit's sorting out of truth and | falsity. The true becomes what can be used to meet the goal. The |
| Tx:19.88 | they may thus mean everything or nothing, according to the truth or | falsity of the idea which they reflect. Confronted with such seeming |
| W2:WF.1 | sin except a false idea about God's Son? Forgiveness merely sees its | falsity and therefore lets it go. What then is free to take its place |
| W2:248.1 | I have disowned the truth. Now let me be as faithful in disowning | falsity. Whatever suffers is not part of me. What grieves is not |

| Tx:16.39 | Every fantasy, be it of love or hate, deprives you of knowledge, for | fantasies are the veil behind which truth is hidden. To lift the veil |

| Tx:18.51 | let it not know its identity. Mind cannot attack, but it can make | fantasies and direct the body to act them out. Yet it is never what |
| Tx:18.51 | Unless the mind believes the body is actually acting out its | fantasies, it will attack the body by increasing the projection of |
| Tx:18.53 | purposes of love? Would you not welcome and support the shift from | fantasies of vengeance to release from them? Your perception of the |
| Tx:18.53 | being His Will. You cannot make His Will destructive. You can make | fantasies in which your will conflicts with His, but that is all. |

| W1:35.5 | well cross your mind. Try to recognize that the direction of your | fantasies about yourself does not matter. Illusions have no direction |
| W1:R2.3 | to succeed. Do not forget that your will has power over all | fantasies and dreams. Trust it to see you through and carry you |

| Tx:16.56 | unable to make the simple choice between truth and illusion, God and | fantasy. Remember this and you will have no difficulty in perceiving |

| Tx:16.71 | have any real meaning at all. How can you change the past except in | fantasy? And who can give you what you think the past deprived you |
| Tx:16.73 | and that you must return to the past to find salvation. There is no | fantasy which does not contain the dream of retribution for the past. |
| Tx:17.2 | to two masters who ask of you conflicting things. What you use in | fantasy, you deny to truth. Yet what you give to truth to use for you |
| Tx:17.2 | to truth. Yet what you give to truth to use for you is safe from | fantasy. |
| Tx:17.3 | all pain arises from your wish to retain some aspects of reality for | fantasy. If you but realized what this must do to your appreciation |
| Tx:17.5 | Think you that you can bring truth to | fantasy and learn what truth means from the perspective of illusions? |
| Tx:17.6 | of mind because another is attempting to solve his problems through | fantasy, you are refusing to forgive yourself for just this same |
| Tx:17.7 | you imagine how beautiful those you forgive will look to you? In no | fantasy have you ever seen anything so lovely. Nothing you see here, |
| Tx:17.8 | This loveliness is not a | fantasy. It is the real world, bright and clean and new with |
| Tx:17.49 | if you choose not to do so. But you must exclude major areas of | fantasy from each other to save your sanity. Hear not this now! Have |
| Tx:17.63 | the goal of truth. And peace will not be experienced except in | fantasy. Truth has not come because faith has been denied, being |
| Tx:17.63 | understanding of the situation the goal of truth would bring. For | fantasy solutions bring but the illusion of experience, and the |
| Tx:18.17 | but this you are not willing to accept. And so you substitute the | fantasy that reality is fearful, not what you would do to it. And |
| Tx:18.24 | who have spent your lives in bringing truth to illusion, reality to | fantasy, have walked the way of dreams. For you have gone from waking |
| Tx:18.24 | to a yet deeper sleep. Each dream has led to other dreams, and every | fantasy which seemed to bring a light into the darkness but made the |

| Tx:1.2 | do not matter. The only thing that matters is their Source, Which is | far beyond human evaluation. |
| Tx:2.44 | accepted within you. You have perceived it largely as external thus | far, and that is why your experience of it has been minimal. The |
| Tx:2.60 | miscreations of the mind do not really exist. This recognition is a | far better protective device than any form of level confusion, |
| Tx:2.70 | reflection of a much more powerful love-encompassment which is | far beyond any form of charity that man can conceive of as yet. |
| Tx:2.70 | Charity is a way of looking at another as if he had already gone | far beyond his actual accomplishments in time. Since his own thinking |
| Tx:3.79 | even though your minds are in conflict. You have not yet gone back | far enough, and that is why you become so fearful. As you approach |
| Tx:4.1 | The Bible says that you should go with a brother twice as | far as he asks. It certainly does not suggest that you set him back |
| Tx:4.15 | not let your ego dispute this because the ego cannot know what is as | far beyond its reach as you are. |
| Tx:4.19 | of Heaven is the right of the Soul, whose beauty and dignity are | far beyond doubt, beyond perception, and stand forever as the mark of |
| Tx:4.21 | devoted teachers who share my aim of healing the mind. The Soul is | far beyond the need of your protection or mine. Remember this: |
| Tx:4.37 | and not validity. “Reliable behavior” is a meaningful perception as | far as ego thinking goes. However, “valid behavior” is an expression |
| Tx:4.93 | the Soul. You have conditioned yourselves the other way around. A | far greater reward, however, will break through any conditioning if |
| Tx:4.95 | that imply being. The ego is thus against communication except in so | far as it is utilized to establish separateness rather than to |
| Tx:6.33 | thus guarantee their ultimate meeting. This convergence seems to be | far in the future only because your mind is not in perfect alignment |
| Tx:6.86 | there is something you must be vigilant against. It has advanced | far from the first lesson, which was primarily a reversal and also |
| Tx:8.36 | nothing, but together our wills fuse into something whose power is | far beyond the power of its separate parts. By not being separate, |
| Tx:9.20 | The ego's plan for forgiveness is | far more widely used than God's. This is because it is undertaken by |
| Tx:9.38 | to obtain it. Your brothers are everywhere. You do not have to seek | far for salvation. Every minute and every second gives you a chance |
| Tx:10.19 | Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He will enable you to go | far beyond the healing you would undertake, for beside your small |
| Tx:10.20 | trust His patience, for He cannot leave a part of God. Yet you need | far more than patience. |
| Tx:11.77 | The Father has hidden His Son safely within Himself and kept him | far away from your destructive thoughts, but you know neither the |
| Tx:11.78 | perfect peace, and needing nothing, he asks for nothing. Yet he is | far from you whose Self he is, for you chose to attack him, and he |
| Tx:13.7 | and who are seeking you and where to find them. Knowledge is | far beyond your individual concern. You, who are part of it and all |
| Tx:15.2 | takes time, and that the results of the Holy Spirit's teaching are | far in the future. This is not so. For the Holy Spirit uses time in |
| Tx:15.5 | seem to be reconciled. The ego teaches thus: Death is the end as | far as hope of Heaven goes. Yet because you and itself cannot be |
| Tx:15.7 | insistence that the past and future be the same is hidden a | far more insidious threat to peace. The ego does not advertise its |
| Tx:15.12 | salvation? He asks no more, for He has no need of more. It takes | far longer to teach you how to be willing to give Him this than for |
| Tx:15.16 | when all the obstacles to learning it have been removed? Truth is so | far beyond time that all of it happens at once. For as it was created |
| Tx:15.19 | and seem to provide reasons for not letting it go. Yet they are | far stronger and much more compelling witnesses for the Holy Spirit. |
| Tx:15.29 | and beyond everyone to His Son's creations, but without leaving you. | Far beyond your little world but still in you, He extends forever. |

| Tx:15.36 | you desire it not and cherish littleness instead, by so much is it | far from you. By so much as you want it will you bring it nearer. |
| Tx:15.59 | to him, your hope of answer is diminished. On the contrary, you are | far more inclined to regard his success as witness to the possibility |
| Tx:15.73 | demand of sacrifice. The fury of those joined at the ego's altar | far exceeds your awareness of it. For what the ego really wants, you |
| Tx:15.79 | not leave you as your Teacher until the holy instant has extended | far beyond time. For a teaching assignment such as His, He must use |

| Tx:16.10 | you do not understand. Nor do you do them. It is their extension, | far beyond the limits you perceive, that demonstrates you did not do |
| Tx:16.11 | you would still try to keep understanding to yourself. A better and | far more helpful way to think of miracles is this: You do not |
| Tx:16.26 | must be outside, where nothing is. You have taught this, and from | far off in the universe, yet not beyond yourself, the witnesses to |
| Tx:16.62 | would deny his power, for the separate union excludes the universe. | Far more is left outside than would be taken in. For God is left |
| Tx:16.65 | The period of disorientation which precedes the actual transition is | far shorter than the time it took to fix your minds so firmly on |
| Tx:16.67 | of your relationships. Now no one need suffer, for you have come too | far to yield to the illusion of the beauty and holiness of guilt. |
| Tx:17.32 | seems to you somehow to be “different.” Yet we have looked at it | far closer than at many other aspects of the ego's thought system |
| Tx:17.51 | together. And take each other's hand to walk together along a road | far more familiar than you now believe. Is it not certain that you |
| Tx:17.57 | you can more safely look beyond each situation in an understanding | far broader than you now possess. |
| Tx:17.70 | set in you in whom the Holy Spirit's goal has been established is so | far beyond your little conception of the infinite that you have no |
| Tx:17.76 | be withheld. The strain of refusing faith to truth is enormous and | far greater than you realize. But to answer truth with faith entails |

| Tx:7.51 | try to share an illusion with the most holy children of a most holy | Father?] Yet I do want to share my mind with you, because we are of |
| Tx:7.105 | in the mind of a Son of God whose will must be the Will of the | Father, because the Father's Will is His Son. |
| Tx:7.113 | also know all He created to know what they have shared. Without your | Father, you will not know your fatherhood. The Kingdom of God |
| Tx:7.113 | Sons and their children, who are like the Sons as they are like the | Father. Know then the Sons of God, and you will know all creation. |
| Tx:8.18 | The will of | Father and of the Son are one together by their extension. Their |
| Tx:8.18 | creation by the perfectly created in union with Perfect Creator. The | Father must give fatherhood to His Son, because His own Fatherhood |
| Tx:8.27 | was simply to unite the will of the Sonship with the Will of the | Father by being aware of the Father's Will myself. This is the |
| Tx:8.32 | another. God's Sons are equal in will, all being the Will of their | Father. This is the only lesson I came to teach, knowing that it is |
| Tx:8.33 | because of yourselves you are nothing. I am nothing without the | Father, and you are nothing without me, because by denying the Father |
| Tx:8.33 | the Father, and you are nothing without me, because by denying the | Father you deny yourself. I will always remember you, and in my |
| Tx:8.34 | are losing sight of your true identification with me and with the | Father. Your identification is with the Father and with the Son. It |
| Tx:8.34 | with me and with the Father. Your identification is with the | Father and with the Son. It cannot be with one and not the other. If |
| Tx:8.37 | are like you, because perceiving this likeness is to recognize the | Father. If your perfection is in Him and only in Him, how can you |
| Tx:8.38 | they are united. The miracles we do bear witness to the Will of the | Father for His Son and to our joy in uniting with His Will for us. |
| Tx:8.42 | the glory of God and His holy Sons, but it can blind the Sons to the | Father if they behold it. You cannot behold the world and know God. |
| Tx:8.45 | created like His? Your creations love you as your Soul loves your | Father for the gift of creation. There is no other gift which is |
| Tx:9.35 | by its creations, who witness to its reality as the Son does to the | Father. |
| Tx:9.79 | one is part of Him. God's Son knows no idols, but he does know his | Father. Health in this world is the counterpart of value in Heaven. |
| Tx:9.82 | him. Yet you did not create him, because he is not the Will of the | Father. He is therefore not eternal and will be unmade for you the |
| Tx:9.83 | due, and peace will be yours. It is your inheritance from your real | Father. You cannot make your father, and the father you made did not |
| Tx:9.96 | a creator, he had been created. Yet the Son is helpless without the | Father, Who alone is his help. We said before that of yourselves you |
| Tx:9.97 | you need be troubled by nothing. Your gods are nothing, because your | Father did not create them. You cannot make creators who are unlike |
| Tx:9.99 | Your | Father has not denied you. He does not retaliate, but He does call to |
| Tx:9.101 | punished otherwise. It is merely because your acknowledgment of your | Father is the acknowledgment of yourself as you are. Your Father |
| Tx:9.101 | of your Father is the acknowledgment of yourself as you are. Your | Father created you wholly without sin, wholly without pain, and |
| Tx:9.103 | created for him and what he himself had created in the Name of his | Father. Heaven waits for his return, for it was created as the |
| Tx:10.4 | you will also have looked upon ours. I come to you from our | Father to offer you everything again. Do not refuse it in order to |
| Tx:10.4 | You will not take this journey alone. I will lead you to your true | Father, Who hath need of you as I have. Will you not answer the call |
| Tx:10.6 | from the universe or from God, Who is the universe? I and my | Father are one with you, for you are part of us. Do you really |
| Tx:10.11 | on your willingness to give as He gives. Your fatherhood and your | Father are one. God willed to create, and your will is His. It |
| Tx:10.13 | for himself. God's Son cannot will death for himself because His | Father is Life and His Son is like Him. Creation is your will because |
| Tx:10.15 | is knowing. Blessed are you who learn that to hear the Will of your | Father is to know your own. For it is your will to be like Him, Whose |
| Tx:10.16 | and every healing thought brings it closer. The Son of God has both | Father and Son because he is both Father and Son. To unite having and |
| Tx:10.16 | it closer. The Son of God has both Father and Son because he is both | Father and Son. To unite having and being is only to unite your will |
| Tx:10.27 | so great that it can sweep you out of all darkness forever. For your | Father is your Creator, and you are like Him. |
| Tx:10.30 | of the Son can be excluded if he would know the Wholeness of his | Father. In your mind, you can accept the whole Sonship and bless it |
| Tx:10.30 | you can accept the whole Sonship and bless it with the light your | Father gave it. Then you will be worthy to dwell in the temple with |
| Tx:10.32 | God homeless and know that you are at home? Can the Son deny the | Father without believing that the Father has denied him? God's laws |
| Tx:10.32 | are at home? Can the Son deny the Father without believing that the | Father has denied him? God's laws hold only for your protection, and |
| Tx:10.32 | and they never hold in vain. What you experience when you deny your | Father is still for your protection, for the power of your will |
| Tx:10.35 | his voice in praise of his Creator, he will hear the Voice of his | Father. Yet the Creator cannot be praised without His Son, for their |
| Tx:10.36 | you be. But love yourself with the love of Christ, for so does your | Father love you. You can refuse to enter, but you cannot bar the door |
| Tx:10.38 | Blessed is the Son of God, whose radiance is of his | Father and whose glory he wills to share as his Father shares it with |
| Tx:10.38 | radiance is of his Father and whose glory he wills to share as his | Father shares it with him. There is no condemnation in the Son, for |
| Tx:10.38 | is no condemnation in the Son, for there is no condemnation in the | Father. Sharing the perfect love of the Father, the Son must share |
| Tx:10.38 | is no condemnation in the Father. Sharing the perfect love of the | Father, the Son must share what belongs to Him, for otherwise he will |
| Tx:10.38 | must share what belongs to Him, for otherwise he will not know the | Father or the Son. Peace be unto you who rest in God and in whom the |
| Tx:10.56 | but hardly to what it has denied! The ego looks straight at the | Father and does not see Him, for it has denied His Son. |
| Tx:10.57 | Would you remember the | Father? Accept His Son, and you will remember Him. Nothing can |
| Tx:10.57 | demonstration that His Son does not exist, yet where the Son is, the | Father must be. Accept what God does not deny, and He will |
| Tx:10.57 | demonstrate nothing, for Christ speaks to them of Himself and of His | Father. They are silent because Christ speaks to them, and it is His |
| Tx:10.59 | Christ does rise above the ego and all its works and ascends to the | Father and His Kingdom. |
| Tx:10.60 | or free them? Would you transcend your prison and ascend to the | Father? For these questions are all the same and are answered |
| Tx:10.62 | perceive what has been accomplished for you. For we ascend unto the | Father together, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall |
| Tx:10.62 | now, and ever shall be, for such is the nature of God's Son as His | Father created him. |
| Tx:10.64 | him without question as His own. Who, then, is your own? The | Father has given you all that is His, and He Himself is yours with |
| Tx:10.68 | all things are possible. And to Christ it is given to be like the | Father. |
| Tx:10.69 | The world as you perceive it cannot have been created by the | Father, for the world is not as you see it. God created only the |
| Tx:10.70 | eternal because they are loving. And being loving, they are like the | Father and therefore cannot die. The real world can actually be |
| Tx:10.71 | To establish your personal autonomy, you tried to create unlike your | Father, believing what you made to be capable of being unlike Him. |
| Tx:10.82 | for deprivation. Little Children of God, you do not understand your | Father. You believe in a world that takes, because you believe that |
| Tx:10.83 | give to anyone who asks it of him. Ask anything of God's Son and His | Father will answer you, for Christ is not deceived in His Father, and |
| Tx:10.83 | and His Father will answer you, for Christ is not deceived in His | Father, and His Father is not deceived in Him. |
| Tx:10.83 | will answer you, for Christ is not deceived in His Father, and His | Father is not deceived in Him. |
| Tx:10.84 | that his mind is split, you will heal yours. Accept him as his | Father accepts him and heal him unto Christ, for Christ is his |
| Tx:10.84 | yours. Christ is the Son of God, who is in no way separate from His | Father, whose every thought is as loving as the Thought of His Father |
| Tx:10.84 | His Father, whose every thought is as loving as the Thought of His | Father by which He was created. Be not deceived in God's Son, for |
| Tx:10.84 | yourself. And being deceived in yourself, you are deceived in your | Father in Whom no deceit is possible. |
| Tx:10.86 | deceived in God's Son, for he is one with himself and one with his | Father. Love him who is beloved of His Father, and you will learn of |
| Tx:10.86 | with himself and one with his Father. Love him who is beloved of His | Father, and you will learn of the Father's love for you. |
| Tx:10.88 | own fear. You, my children, are afraid of your brothers and of your | Father and of yourselves. But you are merely deceived in them. |
| Tx:10.89 | they are frightened. It is not the reality of your brothers or your | Father or yourself which frightens you. You do not know what they |
| Tx:10.90 | real world in place of the false one you have made. And then your | Father will lean down to you and take the last step for you by |
| Tx:11.7 | for the help of God, and you will recognize your own need for the | Father. |
| Tx:11.8 | you answer in the name of Christ brings the remembrance of your | Father closer to your awareness. For the sake of your need, then, |
| Tx:11.16 | brother what he really wants is to offer it unto yourself, for your | Father wills you to know your brother as yourself. Answer his call |
| Tx:11.16 | love and yours is answered. Healing is the love of Christ for His | Father and for Himself. |
| Tx:11.19 | way of love, for nothing can withstand the love of Christ for His | Father or His Father's love for Him. |
| Tx:11.20 | my help, for I did not walk alone, and I will walk with you as our | Father walked with me. Did you not know that I walked with Him in |
| Tx:11.33 | You were willing to accept even death to deny your | Father. Yet He would not have it so, and so it is not so. You still |
| Tx:11.39 | He will never deceive God's Son, whom He loves with the love of the | Father. |
| Tx:11.41 | Behold the Guide your | Father gave you that you might learn you have eternal life. For death |
| Tx:11.41 | Father's Will nor yours, and whatever is true is the Will of the | Father. You pay no price for life, for that was given you, but you do |
| Tx:11.54 | Remembering you always, He cannot let you forget your worth. For the | Father never ceases to remind Him of His Son, and He never ceases to |
| Tx:11.54 | remind Him of His Son, and He never ceases to remind His Son of the | Father. God is in your memory because of Him. You chose to forget |
| Tx:11.54 | God is in your memory because of Him. You chose to forget your | Father, but you did not will to do so, and therefore you can decide |
| Tx:11.57 | you the real world because God gave you Heaven. Through Him your | Father calls His Son to remember. The awakening of His Son begins |
| Tx:11.57 | he will learn to reinvest in himself. For reality is one with the | Father and the Son, and the Holy Spirit blesses the real world in |
| Tx:11.58 | blessing. For the Holy Spirit will lead everyone home to his | Father, where Christ waits as his Self. |
| Tx:11.59 | as Christ's is in God. Christ's love for you is His love for His | Father, which He knows because He knows His Father's love for Him. |
| Tx:11.59 | the Holy Spirit has at last led you to Christ at the altar to His | Father, perception fuses into knowledge because perception has become |
| Tx:11.60 | into it, and the Spirit of God's Son shines in the Mind of the | Father and becomes one with it. Very gently does God shine upon |
| Tx:11.71 | of the mind which created us. For we are there in the peace of the | Father, Who wills to project His peace through you. |
| Tx:11.75 | it is a traitor to you who believe you have been treacherous to your | Father. That is why the undoing of guilt is an essential part of the |
| Tx:11.76 | for myself alone? And would eternal life have been given me of the | Father unless He had also given it to you? When you learn to make me |
| Tx:11.77 | Do you really believe that you can kill the Son of God? The | Father has hidden His Son safely within Himself and kept him far away |
| Tx:11.77 | far away from your destructive thoughts, but you know neither the | Father nor the Son because of them. You attack the real world every |
| Tx:11.78 | God's Son is as safe as his | Father, for the Son knows his Father's protection and cannot fear. |
| Tx:11.78 | you chose to attack him, and he disappeared from your sight into his | Father. He did not change, but you did. For a split mind and all its |
| Tx:11.78 | you did. For a split mind and all its works were not created by the | Father and could not live in the knowledge of Him. |
| Tx:11.82 | all of it. He has remembered you because He forgot not the | Father. |
| Tx:11.84 | The Atonement is but the way back to what was never lost. Your | Father could not cease to love His Son. |
| Tx:11.85 | denial but to hold on to it. For it is guilt that has obscured the | Father to you, and it is guilt that has driven you insane. |
| Tx:11.87 | could have touched none of you, had you not believed that it was the | Father Who drove him out of paradise. For in that belief, the |
| Tx:11.87 | drove him out of paradise. For in that belief, the knowledge of the | Father was lost, since only those who do not understand Him could |
| Tx:11.89 | He wills to remove all guilt from his mind that he may remember his | Father in peace. For peace and guilt are antithetical, and the Father |
| Tx:11.89 | his Father in peace. For peace and guilt are antithetical, and the | Father can be remembered only in peace. Love and guilt cannot |
| Tx:11.92 | God has set himself is foolish indeed, but the journey on which his | Father sets him is one of release and joy. The Father is not cruel, |
| Tx:11.92 | journey on which his Father sets him is one of release and joy. The | Father is not cruel, and His Son cannot hurt himself. The retaliation |
| Tx:11.93 | judge him not, for his eternal guiltlessness is in the mind of his | Father, and protects him forever. |
| Tx:11.94 | have always followed him, for he has always extended the love of his | Father. |
| Tx:11.95 | awakening. The Son of God, who sleepeth not, has kept faith with his | Father for you. There is no road to travel on and no time to travel |
| Tx:12.9 | no dark cloud will remain between you and the remembrance of your | Father, for you will remember His guiltless Son, who did not die |
| Tx:12.12 | by removing the dark cloud that obscures it, your love for your | Father would impel you to answer His call and leap into Heaven. You |
| Tx:12.18 | so dear, is your real call for help. For you call for love to your | Father as your Father calls you to Himself. In that place which you |
| Tx:12.18 | real call for help. For you call for love to your Father as your | Father calls you to Himself. In that place which you have hidden, you |
| Tx:12.18 | In that place which you have hidden, you will only to unite with the | Father in loving remembrance of Him. You will find this place of |
| Tx:12.19 | Save him from his illusions that you may accept the magnitude of your | Father in peace and joy. But exempt no one from your love, or you |
| Tx:12.20 | for the request was alien to Him, and you could not ask this of a | Father Who truly loved His Son. Therefore you made of Him an unloving |
| Tx:12.20 | peace of God's Son was shattered, for he no longer understood his | Father. He feared what he had made, but still more did he fear his |
| Tx:12.20 | He feared what he had made, but still more did he fear his real | Father, having attacked his own glorious equality with Him. |
| Tx:12.21 | to his demands except by departing in peace and returning to the | Father? If the Son did not wish to remain in peace, he could not |
| Tx:12.39 | Little children, would you offer this to your | Father? For if you offer it to yourself, you are offering it to Him. |
| Tx:12.40 | worlds, for as we are united, so would we unite with them. The | Father welcomes all of us in gladness, and gladness is what we should |
| Tx:12.42 | within you, and He would extend it. And He will not return unto the | Father until He has extended your perception even unto Him. And there |
| Tx:12.42 | Him. And there perception is no more, for He has returned you to the | Father with Him. |
| Tx:12.43 | vision He beholds Himself. And seeing what He is, He knows His | Father. Beyond your darkest dreams, He sees God's guiltless Son |
| Tx:12.43 | Him, for His vision is His gift of love to you, given Him of the | Father for you. |
| Tx:12.44 | they are. Because they saw the Son, they have risen in Him to the | Father. And all this will they understand because they looked within |
| Tx:12.52 | shines forth from God's Son is the witness that his light is of his | Father. |
| Tx:12.55 | which you have given it. And here will everything remind you of your | Father and His Holy Son. Light is unlimited and spreads across this |
| Tx:12.57 | and given you the gifts He gave. God's Son is still as loving as his | Father. Continuous with his Father, he has no past apart from Him. So |
| Tx:12.57 | God's Son is still as loving as his Father. Continuous with his | Father, he has no past apart from Him. So he has never ceased to be |
| Tx:12.67 | is your awakening to what you have not lost. Praise, then, the | Father for the perfect sanity of His most holy Son. |
| Tx:12.68 | Your | Father knoweth that you have need of nothing. In Heaven this is so, |
| Tx:12.76 | how to remember you. Thus does the Son of God give thanks unto his | Father for his purity. |
| Tx:13.4 | Apart from the | Father and the Son, the Holy Spirit has no function. He is not |
| Tx:13.6 | and equal in their holiness. And He will offer them unto His | Father as they were offered unto Him. There is one miracle, as there |
| Tx:13.6 | was is God's most holy Son, created in the One Reality that is his | Father. Christ's vision is His gift to you. His Being is His Father's |
| Tx:13.7 | are part of it and all of it, need only realize that it is of the | Father, not of you. Your role in the redemption leads you to it by |
| Tx:13.8 | time will be over, and we will all unite in the eternity of God the | Father. The holy light you saw outside yourself in every miracle you |
| Tx:13.8 | is in you, your creations will be there with you, as you are in your | Father. |
| Tx:13.11 | Guilt remains the only thing that hides the | Father, for guilt is the attack upon His Son. The guilty always |
| Tx:13.17 | the Atonement, shining in quiet and in peace upon the altar to your | Father. |
| Tx:13.19 | Within you is the holy sign of perfect faith your | Father has in you. He does not value you as you do. He knows Himself |
| Tx:13.24 | is welcome to you as you would have yourself be welcome to your | Father, you will see no guilt in you. For you will have accepted the |
| Tx:13.27 | within and seen the radiance there, he will remember how much his | Father loves him. And it will seem incredible that he has ever |
| Tx:13.27 | loves him. And it will seem incredible that he has ever thought his | Father loved him not and looked upon him as condemned. The moment |
| Tx:13.28 | to the holy place where you will see the light. The altar to your | Father is as pure as He Who raised it to Himself. Nothing can keep |
| Tx:13.29 | fear in love, for love is guiltless. You who have always loved your | Father can have no fear for any reason to look within and see your |
| Tx:13.31 | be still. In quiet look upon his holiness and offer thanks unto his | Father that no guilt has ever touched him. |
| Tx:13.32 | for what you see will banish guilt forever. I thank You, | Father, for the purity of Your most holy Son, whom You have created |
| Tx:13.33 | I offer unto it. My faith in you is strong as all the love I give my | Father. My trust in you is without limit and without the fear that |
| Tx:13.33 | limit and without the fear that you will hear me not. I thank the | Father for your loveliness and for the many gifts that you will let |
| Tx:13.34 | Praise be unto you who make the | Father one with His own Son. Alone we are all lowly, but together we |
| Tx:13.34 | will be so purified that it is fitting as a hymn of praise unto your | Father. See only praise of Him in what He has created, for He will |
| Tx:13.40 | want, and only this. Fear not the Holy Spirit will fail in what your | Father has given Him to do. The Will of God can fail in nothing. |
| Tx:13.52 | by the capricious and unholy whim of death and murder that your | Father shared not with you. You have set yourselves the task of |
| Tx:13.67 | it manifest and sharing it. Let me bring peace to God's Son from his | Father. |
| Tx:13.79 | of God's Son, whom He created holy, for to do so is to evaluate his | Father and judge against Him. And you will feel guilty for this |
| Tx:13.81 | alone without you. And so He gives you what is yours because your | Father would have you share it with Him. In everything be led by Him |
| Tx:13.86 | first in time means nothing, but the First in eternity is God the | Father, Who is both First and One. Beyond the First, there is no |
| Tx:13.88 | your most holy mind be undone for you and stand in grace before your | Father, He will give Himself to you as He has always done. Giving |
| Tx:13.91 | attempt, which cheats you of the joy of living with your God and | Father, and awaking gladly to His love and holiness, which join |
| Tx:14.1 | for knowing Him. Accepting His Son as guilty is denial of the | Father so complete that knowledge is swept away from recognition in |
| Tx:14.2 | for Him and for yourselves. You cannot understand how much your | Father loves you, for there is no parallel in your experience of the |
| Tx:14.3 | The Children of Heaven live in the light of the blessing of their | Father because they know that they are sinless. The Atonement was |
| Tx:14.3 | of the Son of God. It does not teach you what you are or what your | Father is. The Holy Spirit, Who remembers this for you, merely |
| Tx:14.7 | Blessed Son of a wholly blessing | Father, joy was created for you. Who can condemn whom God has |
| Tx:14.8 | separation slip away and full communication be restored between the | Father and the Son. |
| Tx:14.13 | are you who teach with me. Our power comes not of us but of our | Father. In guiltlessness we know Him, as He knows us guiltless. I |
| Tx:14.20 | means which you have made for breaking your communication with your | Father. The Holy Spirit reinterprets it as a means of reestablishing |
| Tx:14.32 | Whom He would save for glory is saved for it. He has promised the | Father that through Him you would be released from littleness to |
| Tx:14.33 | with the one promise given unto Him to lay upon the altar to your | Father and His Son. No altar stands to God without His Son. And |
| Tx:14.33 | worthy of both but will be replaced by gifts wholly acceptable to | Father and to Son. Can you offer guilt to God? You cannot, then, |
| Tx:14.34 | be divided cannot cease. The holy meeting place of the unseparated | Father and His Son lies in the Holy Spirit and in you. All |
| Tx:14.34 | here. Unbroken and uninterrupted love flows constantly between the | Father and the Son, as both would have it be. And so it is. |
| Tx:14.36 | and by His creations. In the holy meeting place are joined the | Father and His creations, and the creations of His Son with them |
| Tx:14.37 | The link with which the | Father joins Himself to those He gives the power to create like Him |
| Tx:14.37 | together with the gift of God, and only what is worthy of the | Father will be accepted by the Son, for whom it was intended. To whom |
| Tx:14.38 | is the Holy Spirit's only function. Keep not your making from your | Father, for hiding it has cost you knowledge of Him and of |
| Tx:14.47 | only perception the Son of God accepts. And thus, remembrance of his | Father dawns on him, and he can no longer be satisfied with anything |
| Tx:14.55 | for no thought you hold is for yourself. If you would remember your | Father, let the Holy Spirit order your thoughts and give only the |
| Tx:14.63 | but one thing: you think you do not will for God's Son what His | Father wills for him. Every dark lesson teaches this in one form or |
| Tx:14.63 | ones you do not accept and hide, teaches you that you will with the | Father unto His Son. |
| Tx:14.67 | miracles has been provided for you. God's Son can make no needs His | Father will not meet if he but turn to Him ever so little. Yet He |
| Tx:14.71 | here, and you will remember that you have always created like your | Father. The miracle of creation has never ceased, having the holy |
| Tx:15.14 | enough to transcend all of the ego's making and ascend unto your | Father. |
| Tx:15.26 | without His Son, and His Son cannot be content with less than his | Father has given him. We asked you once before, “Would you be hostage |
| Tx:15.28 | then, with littleness, in the name of Christ, eternal Host unto His | Father. |
| Tx:15.31 | is not of this world because it is in you. And you are of your | Father. Let us join in honoring you, who must remain forever beyond |
| Tx:15.32 | Decide with me, who have decided to abide with you. I will as my | Father wills, knowing His Will is constant and at peace forever with |
| Tx:15.32 | no less, remembering that everything I learned is yours. What my | Father loves, I love as He does, and I can no more accept it as what |
| Tx:15.38 | you learn how perfect and immaculate is the holy altar on which your | Father has placed Himself? This you will recognize in the holy |
| Tx:15.46 | For to experience yourself as alone is to deny the oneness of the | Father and his Son and thus to attack reality. |
| Tx:15.59 | What you find difficult to accept is the fact that, like your | Father, you are an idea. And like Him, you can give yourself |
| Tx:15.63 | in ideas minds can communicate. If you would give yourself as your | Father gives His Self, you will learn to understand Selfhood. And |
| Tx:15.65 | and always obscured by it is the powerful attraction of the | Father for His Son. There is no other love that can satisfy you, |
| Tx:15.81 | never leave. The loneliness of God's Son is the loneliness of his | Father. Refuse not the awareness of your completion and seek not to |
| Tx:15.82 | are joined in God through Christ, where they become like to their | Father. For Christ knows of no separation from His Father, Who is His |
| Tx:15.82 | like to their Father. For Christ knows of no separation from His | Father, Who is His one relationship, in which He gives as His Father |
| Tx:15.82 | His Father, Who is His one relationship, in which He gives as His | Father gives to Him. |
| Tx:15.90 | weak and dim and limited, for you have attempted to separate the | Father from the Son and limit their communication. Seek not Atonement |
| Tx:15.92 | It is in your power in time to delay the perfect union of the | Father and the Son. For in this world, the attraction of guilt does |
| Tx:15.101 | to protect yourself from where it is not. Your brothers and your | Father have become very fearful to you. And you would bargain with |
| Tx:15.103 | our relationship, which is as innocent as our relationship with our | Father, and as powerful. Pain will be brought to us and disappear in |
| Tx:15.104 | of your relationship with God. Through guilt you exclude your | Father and your brothers from yourself. Through peace you invite them |
| Tx:15.108 | Christ, which I give you that you may give it and return it to the | Father, Who gave it to me. For in the time of Christ, communication |
| Tx:15.109 | Wholeness as we welcome Him into ourselves. Those who receive the | Father are one with Him, being host to Him Who created them. And by |
| Tx:15.109 | created them. And by allowing Him to enter, the remembrance of the | Father enters with Him, and with Him they remember the only |
| Tx:16.27 | will learn His power and strength and purity, and love Him as His | Father does. His Kingdom has no limits and no end, and there is |
| Tx:16.39 | your own sense of completion and thus denies the wholeness of your | Father. Every fantasy, be it of love or hate, deprives you of |
| Tx:16.41 | Your | Father can no more forget the truth in you than you can fail to |
| Tx:16.81 | Forgive us our illusions, | Father, and help us to accept our true relationship with You in which |
| Tx:17.7 | which the Holy Spirit loves to look upon and which He thanks the | Father for. He was created to see this for you until you learn to see |
| Tx:17.42 | and know it to be true. Let us ascend in peace together to the | Father by giving Him ascendance in our minds. We will gain everything |
| Tx:17.79 | for your relationship, you became givers of peace as surely as your | Father gave peace to you. For the goal of peace cannot be accepted |
| Tx:18.49 | of Heaven is the dwelling-place of the Son of God, who left not his | Father and dwells not apart from Him. Heaven is not a place nor a |
| Tx:19.11 | the gracious acknowledgment of everyone as a Son of your most loving | Father, loved by Him like you and therefore loved by you as yourself. |
| Tx:19.12 | offer to the Son of God through Him, and wholly acceptable to his | Father as to him. And therefore offered you. |
| Tx:19.20 | is this doctrine which replaces the reality of the Son of God as his | Father created him and willed that he be forever. Is this humility? |
| Tx:19.23 | present, and his future. For he has somehow managed to corrupt his | Father and changed His Mind completely. Mourn, then, the death of |
| Tx:19.39 | gently before His Creator in the name of His most holy Son. And the | Father will accept them in His Name. What need is there of seeing in |
| Tx:19.63 | fear. You want salvation, not the pain of guilt. And you want your | Father, not a little mound of clay, to be your home. In your holy |
| Tx:19.66 | itself. Salvation flows from deep within the home you offered to my | Father and to me. And we are there together in the quiet communion in |
| Tx:19.66 | to me. And we are there together in the quiet communion in which the | Father and the Son are joined. Oh come ye faithful to the holy union |
| Tx:19.66 | and the Son are joined. Oh come ye faithful to the holy union of the | Father and Son in you! And keep you not apart from what is offered |
| Tx:19.76 | the Holy Spirit, too, is a communication medium, receiving from the | Father and offering His messages unto the Son. Like the ego, the Holy |
| Tx:19.85 | against the ego's savage wish to kill. My brothers, children of our | Father, this is a dream of death. There is no funeral, no dark |
| Tx:19.90 | held no attraction for you? Very simply, you would remember your | Father. The Creator of life, the Source of everything that lives, the |
| Tx:19.90 | The Creator of life, the Source of everything that lives, the | Father of the universe and of the universe of universes and of |
| Tx:19.93 | lifted so you could look upon the face of Christ and join Him in His | Father. |
| Tx:19.107 | of God's Son and let him rise again to glad remembrance of his | Father, Who knows no sin, no death, but only life eternal. |
| Tx:19.108 | you offer to the Son of God in thanks for what he is and what his | Father created him to be. |
| Tx:19.110 | and place the Son of God safely within the sure protection of his | Father. Here is the only purpose that gives this world and the long |
| Tx:20.27 | see God within His Son and look unto the Son to lead them to the | Father. And where else would they go but where they will to be? Each |
| Tx:20.27 | where they will to be? Each of you now will lead the other to the | Father as surely as God created His Son holy and kept him so. In your |
| Tx:20.37 | in a holy relationship. There he begins to find the certainty his | Father has in him. And there he finds his function of restoring his |
| Tx:20.40 | you want except his offering? His worth has been established by his | Father, and you will recognize it as you receive his Father's gift |
| Tx:20.44 | to him and know it rests in safety? He looks upon himself not as his | Father knows him. And yet it is impossible the confidence of God |
| Tx:20.45 | the Son of God invented an unholy relationship between him and his | Father. His real relationship is one of perfect union and unbroken |
| Tx:20.45 | broken into fragments, and full of fear. The one created by his | Father is wholly self-encompassing and self-extending. The one he |
| Tx:20.54 | reflects the true relationship the Son of God has with his | Father in reality. The Holy Spirit rests within it in the certainty |
| Tx:20.57 | can they long withhold the memory of their relationship with their | Father from themselves and keep remembrance of His love apart from |
| Tx:20.70 | not. And as you look upon each other, you will see an altar to your | Father, holy as Heaven, glowing with radiant purity and sparkling |
| Tx:21.11 | of God, whom you know well. Here is the sight of him who knows his | Father. Here is the memory of what you are—a part of this, with all |
| Tx:21.11 | to you as is this ancient hymn [of love] the Son of God sings to his | Father still. |
| Tx:21.26 | made has power to make you what it wills, you are confusing Son and | Father, effect and Source. |
| Tx:21.28 | Yet the truth is you were both created by a loving | Father Who created you together and as one. See what “proves” |
| Tx:21.28 | between you, keeping you from each other and separate from your | Father, you made in secret, and the instant of release has come to |
| Tx:21.64 | by your choice that he is damned—separate from you and from his | Father forever and without a hope of safe return. You teach him this, |
| Tx:21.68 | blessing. The gratitude he offers you reminds you of the thanks your | Father gives you for completing Him. And here alone does reason tell |
| Tx:21.68 | does reason tell you that you can understand what you must be. Your | Father is as close to you as is your brother. Yet what is there that |
| Tx:22.15 | other as His chosen home, for here you will with Him and with His | Father. This is your Father's Will for you, and yours with His. And |
| Tx:22.47 | and what can separate whom He has joined as one with Him? It is your | Father Whom you would defend against. Yet it remains impossible to |
| Tx:22.54 | than the sun which lights the sky you see, is chosen of your | Father as a means for His own plan. Be thankful that it serves yours |
| Tx:22.59 | What can it be but universal blessing to look on what your | Father loves with charity? Extension of forgiveness is the Holy |
| Tx:22.61 | Who can attack the Son of God and not attack his | Father? How can God's Son be weak and frail and easily destroyed |
| Tx:22.61 | How can God's Son be weak and frail and easily destroyed unless his | Father is? You do not see that every sin and every condemnation which |
| Tx:22.61 | condemnation which you perceive and justify is an attack upon your | Father. And that is why it has not happened nor could be real. You do |
| Tx:22.61 | real. You do not see that this is your attempt because you think the | Father and the Son are separate. And you must think that they are |
| Tx:22.62 | attack a part of the creation without the whole, the Son without the | Father, and to attack another without yourself or hurt yourself |
| Tx:23.11 | is not himself and not his Father's Son. For this, the memory of his | Father must be forgotten. It is forgotten in the body's life, and if |
| Tx:23.15 | be crowned as real, the other vanquished and despised. Here will the | Father never be remembered. Yet no illusion can invade His home and |
| Tx:23.23 | Think what this seems to do to the relationship between the | Father and the Son. Now it appears that they can never be one again. |
| Tx:23.49 | extension, and what is His must be His Son's as well. Either the | Father and the Son are murderers or neither is. Life makes not death, |
| Tx:23.53 | battle still are gone and not perceived. The body stands between the | Father and the Heaven He created for His Son because it has no |
| Tx:24.8 | this that will not hurt you? Your brother is your friend because his | Father created him like you. There is no difference. You have been |
| Tx:24.10 | are alike. You have no purpose that is not the same and none your | Father does not share with you. For your relationship has been made |
| Tx:24.14 | Here is the self-made “savior,” the “creator” who creates unlike the | Father and which made His Son like to itself and not like unto Him. |
| Tx:24.17 | The shining radiance of the Son of God—so like his | Father that the memory of Him springs instantly to mind. And with |
| Tx:24.17 | the Son remembers his own creations, as like to him as he is to his | Father. And all the world he made and all his specialness and all the |
| Tx:24.31 | the universe, the Source of life, of love and holiness, the perfect | Father of a perfect Son, for your illusions of your specialness. Here |
| Tx:24.33 | of them. The print of nails are on your hands as well. Forgive your | Father. It was not His Will that you be crucified. |
| Tx:24.37 | what comfort has ever been in them that you would keep the gift your | Father asks from Him and give it there instead? Given to Him, the |
| Tx:24.40 | what He sees because He knows that it is one with Him and with His | Father. Specialness, too, takes joy in what it sees, although it is |
| Tx:24.49 | before his holiness. See in him God's creation. For in him, his | Father waits for your acknowledgment that He created you as part of |
| Tx:24.50 | there would be a lack in God, a Heaven incomplete, a Son without a | Father. There could be no universe and no reality. For what God wills |
| Tx:24.50 | he has is yours because you are not separate from him nor from his | Father. |
| Tx:24.52 | by the world, by time, and all appearances, you will not know the | Father nor yourself. For you will use the world for what is not its |
| Tx:24.61 | know. To Him this judgment makes no sense at all, for only what His | Father wills is possible, and there is no alternative for Him to see. |
| Tx:24.62 | reverence. This is your son, beloved of you as you are to your | Father. Yet it stands in place of your creations, who are son to you, |
| Tx:24.66 | The | Father keeps what He created safe. You cannot touch it with the false |
| Tx:24.68 | A co-creator with the | Father must have a Son. Yet must this Son have been created like |
| Tx:25.4 | aspects of His holiness, which meet and join and raise Him to His | Father, whole and pure and worthy of His everlasting Love. |
| Tx:25.8 | you to join the truth may reach to you through what you understand. | Father and Son and Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join |
| Tx:25.8 | as One, as all your brothers join as one in truth. Christ and His | Father never have been separate, and Christ abides within your |
| Tx:25.9 | where the error lies. Because His purpose still is one with both the | Father and the Son, He knows the Will of God and what you really |
| Tx:25.20 | His praise of what He loves? God cherishes creation as the perfect | Father that He is. And so His joy is made complete when any part of |
| Tx:25.21 | your brother, and you cannot separate yourself from him nor from his | Father. You need no forgiveness, for the wholly pure have never |
| Tx:25.21 | what He has given you that you may see His Son as one and thank his | Father as He thanks you. Nor believe that all His praise is given not |
| Tx:25.21 | His gift to you. And give the Holy Spirit what He offers unto the | Father and the Son alike. Nothing has power over you except His Will |
| Tx:25.53 | Son because the Son is mad, and sanity must lie apart from both the | Father and the Son. This you believe. Think not that this belief |
| Tx:25.53 | form of reason believes this to be true. Sin is not real because the | Father and the Son are not insane. This world is meaningless because |
| Tx:25.55 | eternal truth of what you are. And each reflects a view of what the | Father and the Son must be to make that viewpoint meaningful and sane. |
| Tx:25.58 | without a special function in the hope of peace than could the | Father overlook His Son and pass him by in careless thoughtlessness. |
| Tx:25.76 | to them both, since they are equal in the Holy Spirit's sight. Their | Father gave the same inheritance to both. Who would have more or less |
| Tx:26.4 | could be demanded than that God's Son perceive himself without his | Father? And his Father be without His Son? Yet every sacrifice |
| Tx:26.4 | than that God's Son perceive himself without his Father? And his | Father be without His Son? Yet every sacrifice demands that they be |
| Tx:26.27 | in its place. Who could behold the face of Christ and not recall His | Father as He really is? Who could fear love and stand upon the ground |
| Tx:26.38 | can only be unreal. Such is the justice your ever-loving | Father has ensured must come to you. And from your own unfairness to |
| Tx:26.61 | will he know himself nor recognize his will.] He has forsworn his | Father and himself and made them both his enemies in hate. |
| Tx:26.63 | again. In every wish to hurt, he chooses death instead of what his | Father wills for him. Yet every instant offers life to him because |
| Tx:26.63 | wills for him. Yet every instant offers life to him because his | Father wills that he should live. |
| Tx:26.64 | be forever. For you have power to save the Son of God because his | Father willed that it be so. And in your hands does all salvation |
| Tx:26.84 | an ancient enmity that came to kill. In gentle gratitude do God the | Father and the Son return to what is Theirs and will forever be. Now |
| Tx:26.91 | By this do I deny the Presence of the | Father and the Son. And I would rather know of Them than see |
| Tx:27.1 | occur at all, it would entail the whole of God's creation and the | Father with the sacrifice of his beloved Son. |
| Tx:27.18 | and miserable cry of death and guilt. The ancient calling of the | Father to His Son, and of the Son unto his own, will yet be the last |
| Tx:27.73 | Son and made him think that he has lost his innocence, denied his | Father, and made war upon himself. So fearful is the dream, so |
| Tx:27.76 | He represents his | Father, Whom you see as offering both life and death to you. Brother, |
| Tx:27.76 | see as gifts your brother offers represent the gifts you dream your | Father gives to you. Let all your brother's gifts be seen in light of |
| Tx:28.15 | where he can glimpse another shore which he can never reach. His | Father wills that he be lifted up and gently carried over. He has |
| Tx:28.16 | there is no cause. The cause a cause is made by its effects; the | Father is a father by His Son. Effects do not create their cause, but |
| Tx:28.23 | The separation started with the dream the | Father was deprived of His effects and powerless to keep them since |
| Tx:28.35 | was. And in your storehouse it will make a place of welcome for your | Father and your Self. The door is open that all those may come who |
| Tx:28.36 | Them. And no one is deprived or can deprive. Here is a feast the | Father lays before His Son and shares it equally with him. And in |
| Tx:28.43 | not his dream, has left the space between them vacant. And the | Father comes to join His Son the Holy Spirit joined. |
| Tx:28.44 | left clean of all the seeds of sickness and of sin. And here the | Father will receive His Son, because His Son was gracious to himself. |
| Tx:28.45 | I thank you, | Father, knowing you will come to close each little gap that lies |
| Tx:28.46 | brother's dreams but join with him, and where you join His Son, the | Father is. Who seeks for substitutes when he perceives he has lost |
| Tx:28.59 | God keeps His promises; His Son keeps his. In his creation did his | Father say, “You are beloved of Me and I of you forever. Be you |
| Tx:28.60 | something he has not. A space where God is not, a gap between the | Father and the Son is not the will of either, who have promised to be |
| Tx:28.66 | health, upon his happiness, his sinlessness, and everything his | Father promised him. No secret promise you have made instead has |
| Tx:29.21 | Think you the | Father lost Himself when He created you? Was He made weak because He |
| Tx:29.24 | gratitude and love. He is himself, but not himself alone. And as his | Father lost not part of Him in your creation, so the light in him is |
| Tx:29.31 | still no sound except a hymn to Heaven rises up to gladden God the | Father and the Son. Where both abide are They remembered both. And |
| Tx:29.34 | There is no gift the | Father asks of you but that you see in all creation but the shining |
| Tx:29.34 | of His gift to you. Behold His Son, His perfect gift in whom his | Father shines forever and to whom is all creation given as his own. |
| Tx:29.35 | house. Would you not want to be a friend to him, created by his | Father as His home? If God esteems him worthy of Himself, would you |
| Tx:29.39 | cannot keep. The Son of Life cannot be killed. He is immortal as his | Father. What he is cannot be changed. He is the only thing in all the |
| Tx:29.51 | chants of deep despair to idols of yourself. Seek not outside your | Father for your hope. For hope of happiness is not despair. |
| Tx:29.57 | chaos, and the Son of God, as perfect, sinless and as loving as his | Father, come to hate a little while, to suffer pain, and finally to |
| Tx:30.46 | Who knows the | Father knows this light, for He is the eternal sky which holds it |
| Tx:30.48 | The mind of Heaven's Son in Heaven is, for there the mind of | Father and Son joined in creation which can have no end. You have not |
| Tx:30.60 | be himself, and to remember that the Son of God knows everything his | Father understands and understands it perfectly with Him. |
| Tx:30.63 | Whose hand they hold. The face of Christ is looked upon before the | Father is remembered. For He must be unremembered till His Son has |
| Tx:30.79 | I thank you, | Father, for your perfect Son, and in his glory will I see my own. |
| Tx:30.81 | you a graven image and a sign of death. Is this your savior? Is his | Father wrong about His Son? Or have you been deceived in him who has |
| Tx:31.24 | love each other with a brother's love. And as a brother, must his | Father be the same as yours, as he is like yourself. |
| Tx:31.67 | does not matter if you think you are in earth or Heaven. What your | Father wills for you can never change. The truth in you remains as |
| Tx:31.95 | I thank You, | Father, for these holy ones who are my brothers as they are Your |
| W1:45.11 | it as you would an altar dedicated in Heaven itself to God the | Father and God the Son. For such is the place you are trying to |
| W1:50.4 | Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Such is the resting place where your | Father has placed you forever. |
| W1:56.5 | Beyond all my insane wishes is my will united with the Will of my | Father. God is still everywhere and in everything forever. And we who |
| W1:58.6 | suffer any loss or deprivation or pain because of who I am. My | Father supports me, protects me, and directs me in all things. His |
| W1:67.8 | that tells you this. This is the Voice for God reminding you of your | Father and of your Self. This is the Voice of truth replacing |
| W1:69.8 | Have confidence in your | Father today. And be certain that He has heard you and has answered |
| W1:72.12 | What is salvation, | Father? I do not know. Tell me, that I may understand. |
| W1:72.14 | our ears. Now we would see and hear and learn. “What is salvation, | Father?” Ask and you will be answered. Seek and you will find. |
| W1:72.16 | What is salvation, | Father? I do not know. Tell me, that I may understand. |
| W1:72.19 | plan for salvation. Let me accept it instead. What is salvation, | Father? |
| W1:73.3 | a world have been created by the will the Son of God shares with his | Father? Did God create disaster for His Son? Creation is the will of |
| W1:73.10 | you unwillingly. It is the one purpose here on which you and your | Father are in perfect accord. |
| W1:76.11 | saw. Then listen further. He will tell you more. About the love your | Father has for you. About the endless joy He offers you. About His |
| W1:76.14 | all danger and all tyranny. It is our acknowledgment that God is our | Father and that His Son is saved. |
| W1:77.2 | in the truth of what you are. It is implicit in what God your | Father is. It was ensured in your creation and guaranteed by the laws |
| W1:95.17 | Son of God, united with your brothers in this Self, united with your | Father in His Will. |
| W1:95.20 | of peace. Your own acknowledgment you are One Self, united with your | Father, is a call to all the world to be at one with you. To everyone |
| W1:99.9 | what you say, for these are words in which your freedom lies. Your | Father loves you. All the world of pain is not His Will. Forgive |
| W1:99.15 | your completeness, unity, and peace. You cannot lose the gifts your | Father gave. You do not want to be another self. You have no function |
| W1:100.1 | Just as God's Son completes his | Father, so your part in it completes your Father's plan. Salvation |
| W1:106.2 | Listen and hear your | Father speak to you through His appointed Voice, Which silences the |
| W1:106.5 | voice to speak to them, for who could reach God's Son except his | Father calling through your Self? |
| W1:107.8 | will give you yours. You were not meant to suffer and to die. Your | Father wills these dreams be gone. Let truth correct them all. We do |
| W1:107.10 | of life to Him as well. He is your brother and so like to you your | Father knows that you are both the same. It is your Self you ask to |
| W1:117.3 | truth. Love is my heritage and with it joy. These are the gifts my | Father gave to me. I would accept all that is mine in truth. |
| W1:120.3 | God's Son. Today I lay aside all sick illusions of myself and let my | Father tell me Who I really am. |
| W1:122.3 | clears your memory of all dead thoughts so that remembrance of your | Father can arise across the threshold of your mind. |
| W1:123.2 | gifts you have received. Be glad today in loving thankfulness your | Father has not left you to yourself, nor let you wander in the dark |
| W1:123.8 | He gave His Son that he might rise above the world remembering his | Father and his Self. |
| W1:124.7 | have accepted and we now would give, for we would keep the gifts our | Father gave. Today we would experience ourselves at one with Him, so |
| W1:124.7 | experience the world is freed; as we deny our separation from our | Father, it is healed along with us. |
| W1:125.1 | Let this day be a day of stillness and of quiet listening. Your | Father wills you hear His Word today. He calls to you from deep |
| W1:125.4 | Hear, holy Son of God, your | Father speak. His Voice would give to you His holy Word to spread |
| W1:125.8 | and purpose, with no separation nor division in the single Mind of | Father and of Son. In quiet listen to your Self today, and let Him |
| W1:127.3 | is the power holding everything as one, the link between the | Father and the Son which holds them both forever as the same. |
| W1:127.8 | Call to your | Father, certain that His Voice will answer. He Himself has promised |
| W1:132.13 | Himself. What He creates is not apart from Him, and nowhere does the | Father end, the Son begin as something separate from Him. |
| W1:132.14 | because it is a thought apart from God and made to separate the | Father and the Son and break away a part of God Himself and thus |
| W1:132.15 | They cannot be there—no more than we. For we are in the home our | Father set for us along with them. And we who are as He created us |
| W1:136.10 | opposed by a decision stronger than His Will. His Son is dust, the | Father incomplete, and chaos sits in triumph on His throne. |
| W1:140.8 | to find the source of healing, which is in our minds because our | Father placed it there for us. It is not further from us than |
| W1:140.11 | to make them different and thus delay the time when we can hear our | Father speak to us. We hear Him now. We come to Him today. |
| W1:140.13 | Only salvation can be said to cure. Speak to us, | Father, that we may be healed. |
| W1:R4.4 | This is a fact and represents the truth of what you are and what your | Father is. It is this thought by which the Father gave creation to |
| W1:R4.4 | you are and what your Father is. It is this thought by which the | Father gave creation to the Son, establishing the Son as co-creator |
| W1:R4.4 | to the Son. For in his mind no thoughts can dwell but those his | Father shares. Lack of forgiveness blocks this thought from his |
| W1:R4.11 | happiness and rest and endless quiet, perfect certainty, and all our | Father wills that we receive as the inheritance we have of Him. |
| W1:142.1 | [123] I thank my | Father for His gifts to me. |
| W1:151.9 | reality. What can the body mean to Him Who knows the glory of the | Father and the Son? What whispers of the ego can He hear? What could |
| W1:152.8 | take the place of self-deceptions made but to usurp the altar to the | Father and the Son. |
| W1:152.15 | Self. God's Voice will answer, for He speaks for you and for your | Father. He will substitute the peace of God for all your frantic |
| W1:153.13 | You who have played that you are lost to hope, abandoned by your | Father, left alone in terror in a fearful world made mad by sin and |
| W1:154.4 | It is this joining through the Voice of God of | Father and of Son that sets apart salvation from the world. It is |
| W1:158.2 | shared directly in the way that vision can. The revelation that the | Father and the Son are one will come in time to every mind. Yet is |
| W1:159.4 | in His sight the sinless are as one. Their holiness was given by His | Father and Himself. |
| W1:160.8 | assure you, quietly and sure, that you are not a stranger to your | Father, nor is your Creator stranger made to you. Whom God has joined |
| W1:163.4 | love and Heaven's perfect, changeless constancy. Here is the Will of | Father and of Son defeated finally and laid to rest beneath the |
| W1:163.7 | over His, and so eternal life gave way to death. And with the | Father died the Son as well. |
| W1:163.9 | Our | Father, bless our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would |
| W1:165.1 | and death obscure the perfect happiness and the Eternal Life your | Father wills for you? And what could hide what cannot be concealed |
| W1:167.1 | an opposite to God does not exist. There is no death because the | Father and the Son are one. |
| W1:168.7 | Your grace is given me. I claim it now. | Father, I come to You. And You will come to me who asks. I am the Son |
| W1:169.4 | appeared to contradict our statement that the revelation of the | Father and the Son as one has been already set. But we have also said |
| W1:169.6 | holy face of Christ. The Son of God has merely disappeared into His | Father, as his Father has in him. The world has never been at all. |
| W1:169.6 | The Son of God has merely disappeared into His Father, as his | Father has in him. The world has never been at all. Eternity remains |
| W1:170.14 | Father, we are like You. No cruelty abides in us for there is none in | |
| W1:R5.2 | Steady our feet, our | Father; let our doubts be quiet and our holy minds be still, and |
| W1:R5.6 | love, and never changes from Its constant state of union with Its | Father and Itself. |
| W1:R5.11 | not a way we walk alone. In him I walk with you and you with me. Our | Father wills His Son be one with Him. What lives but must not then be |
| W1:182.5 | It is this Child in you your | Father knows as His own Son. It is this Child Who knows His Father. |
| W1:182.5 | you your Father knows as His own Son. It is this Child Who knows His | Father. He desires to go home so deeply, so unceasingly, His voice |
| W1:183.11 | His Father's Thoughts become his own. He makes his claim to all his | Father gave, is giving still, and will forever give. He calls on Him |
| W1:183.12 | universe consists of nothing but the Son of God who calls upon his | Father. And his Father's Voice gives answer in his Father's holy |
| W1:184.15 | Father, our Name is Yours. In It we are united with all living things | |
| W1:186.3 | quite sobering until you see its meaning. All it says is that your | Father still remembers you and offers you the perfect trust He holds |
| W1:187.10 | for fear has gone. And here, before the altar to one God, one | Father, one Creator and one thought, we stand together as one Son of |
| W1:188.6 | their home. And they point surely to their Source where God the | Father and the Son are one. |
| W1:189.8 | all obstacles that you have interposed between the Son and God the | Father to be quietly removed forever. God will do His part in joyful |
| W1:189.10 | Father, we do not know the way to You. But we have called, and You | |
| W1:190.3 | The body is the Son of God, corruptible in death, as mortal as the | Father he has slain. |
| W1:193.20 | hold the key that opens Heaven's gate and brings the Love of God the | Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. God will take |
| W1:195.4 | only be sincere if it is joined to love. We offer thanks to God our | Father that in us all things will find their freedom. It will never |
| W1:195.6 | We thank our | Father for one thing alone—that we are separate from no living |
| W1:196.5 | of God is real. And what is that but hell? Who could believe his | Father is his deadly enemy, separate from him and waiting to destroy |
| W1:196.11 | can call on Him to save you from illusions in His Love, calling Him | Father and yourself His Son. Pray that the instant may be soon— |
| W1:197.7 | come, for everyone must live and breathe in Him. His Being in His | Father is secure because Their will is one. Their gratitude to all |
| W1:198.3 | It is a dream in which the Son of God awakens to his Self and to his | Father, knowing They are one. |
| W1:198.7 | all are one—a place where death is offered to God's Son and to his | Father. You may think They have accepted, but if you will look again |
| W1:198.12 | dream. This is the gift the Holy Spirit holds for you from God your | Father. Let today be celebrated both on earth and in your holy home |
| W1:198.14 | is, that to behold the Son is to perceive no more and only know the | Father? In this vision of the Son, so brief that not an instant |
| W1:200.9 | desert His Son in need, nor let him stray forever from his home. The | Father calls; the Son will hear. And that is all there is to what |
| W1:200.1 | my brother. I am blessed with oneness with the universe and God, my | Father, One Creator of the whole that is my Self, forever one with |
| W1:219.1 | upon this. And then return to earth without confusion as to what my | Father loves forever as His Son. I am not a body. I am free. For I am |
| W2:I.2 | merely a beginning. For we wait in quiet expectation for our God and | Father. He has promised He will take the final step Himself. And we |
| W2:I.3 | have given God. We say some simple words of welcome and expect our | Father to reveal Himself as He has promised. We have called on Him, |
| W2:I.5 | For now we cannot fail. Sit silently and wait upon your | Father. He has willed to come to you when you have recognized it is |
| W2:I.6 | I am so close to you we cannot fail. | Father, we give these holy times to You in gratitude to Him Who |
| W2:I.7 | which are Your will to keep. We will with You in asking this. The | Father and the Son, Whose holy will created all that is, can fail in |
| W2:221.1 | Father, I come to You today to seek the peace that You alone can | |
| W2:221.1 | the deep recesses of my mind, I wait and listen for Your Voice. My | Father, speak to me today. I come to hear Your Voice in silence and |
| W2:222.2 | Father, we have no words except Your Name upon our lips and in our | |
| W2:223.2 | Our | Father, let us see the face of Christ instead of our mistakes. For we |
| W2:224.1 | it to give it light. It lights the world as well. It is the gift my | Father gave me, the one as well I give the world. There is no gift |
| W2:224.2 | My Name, oh | Father, still is known to You. I have forgotten it and do not know |
| W2:224.2 | not know where I am going, who I am, or what it is I do. Remind me, | Father, now, for I am weary of the world I see. Reveal what You would |
| W2:225.1 | Father, I must return Your love for me. For giving and receiving are | |
| W2:226.2 | Father, my home awaits my glad return. Your arms are open, and I hear | |
| W2:227.1 | Father, it is today that I am free because my will is Yours. I | |
| W2:227.1 | be removed forever from my mind. This is my holy instant of release. | Father, I know my will is one with Yours. |
| W2:228.1 | My | Father knows my holiness. Shall I deny His knowledge and believe in |
| W2:228.2 | Father, I was mistaken in myself because I failed to realize the | |
| W2:229.1 | attests the truth of the Identity I sought to lose, but which my | Father has kept safe for me. |
| W2:229.2 | Father, my thanks to You for what I am; for keeping my Identity | |
| W2:230.1 | remain. It is not given me to change my Self. How merciful is God my | Father, that when He created me He gave me peace forever. Now I ask |
| W2:230.2 | Father, I seek the peace You gave as mine in my creation. What was | |
| W2:WS.5 | almost over, and God's Son has but an instant more to wait until his | Father is remembered, dreams are done, eternity has shined away the |
| W2:231.1 | What can I seek for, | Father, but Your Love? Perhaps I think I seek for something else—a |
| W2:231.2 | And you share this will with me, and with the One as well Who is our | Father. To remember Him is Heaven. This we seek. And only this is |
| W2:232.1 | Be in my mind, my | Father, when I wake and shine on me throughout the day today. Let |
| W2:232.2 | be. Today practice the end of fear. Have faith in Him Who is your | Father. Trust all things to Him. Let Him reveal all things to you, |
| W2:233.1 | Father, I give You all my thoughts today. I would have none of mine. | |
| W2:234.1 | as one. Nothing has ever happened to disturb the peace of God the | Father and the Son. This we accept as wholly true today. |
| W2:234.2 | We thank You, | Father, that we cannot lose the memory of You and of Your Love. We |
| W2:235.2 | Father, Your holiness is mine. Your Love created me and made my | |
| W2:236.2 | Father, my mind is open to Your thoughts and closed today to every | |
| W2:237.1 | I bring the world the tidings of salvation that I hear as God my | Father speaks to me. And I behold the world that Christ would have me |
| W2:237.2 | eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice of God today. | Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your Son and my true Self as |
| W2:238.1 | Father, Your trust in me has been so great I must be worthy. You | |
| W2:238.2 | And so again today we pause to think how much our | Father loves us. And how dear His Son, created by His Love, remains |
| W2:239.1 | by a false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the gifts our | Father gave us. Can we see in those with whom He shares His glory any |
| W2:239.2 | We thank You, | Father, for the light that shines forever in us. And we honor it |
| W2:241.2 | have forgiven one another now, and so we come at last to You again. | Father, Your Son, who never left, returns to Heaven and his home. How |
| W2:243.2 | Father, today I leave creation free to be itself. I honor all its | |
| W2:245.1 | Your peace surrounds me, | Father. Where I go, Your peace goes there with me. It sheds its light |
| W2:245.1 | or think they are bereft of hope and happiness. Send them to me, my | Father. Let me bring Your peace with me. For I would save Your Son as |
| W2:246.1 | Let me not try to hurt God's Son and think that I can know his | Father or my Self. Let me not fail to recognize myself and still |
| W2:246.1 | recognize myself and still believe that my awareness can contain my | Father, or my mind conceive of all the love my Father has for me and |
| W2:246.1 | can contain my Father, or my mind conceive of all the love my | Father has for me and all the love which I return to Him. |
| W2:246.2 | I will accept the way You choose for me to come to You, my | Father. For in that will I succeed because it is Your Will. And I |
| W2:248.2 | Father, my ancient love for You returns and lets me love Your Son | |
| W2:248.2 | love for You returns and lets me love Your Son again as well. | Father, I am as You created me. Now is Your Love remembered and my |
| W2:249.2 | Father, we would return our minds to You. We have betrayed them, held | |
| W2:250.2 | He is Your Son, my | Father. And today I would behold his gentleness instead of my |
| W2:WIS.4 | with but a little life that ends in death. But all the while his | Father shines on him and loves him with an everlasting Love which his |
| W2:251.2 | And for that peace, our | Father, we give thanks. What we denied ourselves You have restored, |
| W2:252.2 | Father, You know my true Identity. Reveal it now to me who am Your | |
| W2:254.1 | Father, today I would but hear Your Voice. In deepest silence, I | |
| W2:255.1 | in the peace of Heaven. In his name I give today to finding what my | Father wills for me, accepting it as mine and giving it to all my |
| W2:255.2 | And so, my | Father, would I pass this day with You. Your Son has not forgotten |
| W2:256.2 | And so, our | Father, would we come to You in Your appointed way. We have no goal |
| W2:257.2 | Father, forgiveness is Your chosen means for our salvation. Let us | |
| W2:259.2 | Father, I would not be insane today. I would not be afraid of love | |
| W2:260.1 | Father, I did not make myself, although in my insanity I thought I | |
| W2:260.1 | not left my Source, remaining part of What created me. Your Son, my | Father, calls on You today. Let me remember You created me. Let me |
| W2:261.2 | Let me not seek for idols. I would come, my | Father, home to You today. I choose to be as You created me and find |
| W2:262.1 | Father, You have one Son. And it is he that I would look upon today. | |
| W2:262.1 | Name, for You created him. Let me not see him as a stranger to his | Father, nor as stranger to myself. For he is part of me and I of him, |
| W2:263.1 | Father, Your Mind created all that is; Your Spirit entered into it; | |
| W2:264.1 | Father, You stand before me and behind, beside me, in the place I see | |
| W2:264.1 | creation or without the Love Which holds all things within Itself. | Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to You in Your own Name |
| W2:266.1 | Father, You gave me all Your Sons to be my saviors and my counselors | |
| W2:267.2 | Let me attend Your Answer, not my own. | Father, my heart is beating in the peace the Heart of Love created. |
| W2:270.1 | Father, Christ's vision is Your gift to me, and it has power to | |
| W2:270.1 | can give. The world forgiven signifies Your Son acknowledges his | Father, lets his dreams be brought to truth, and waits expectantly |
| W2:WIC.2 | by anything the body's eyes perceive. For though in Him His | Father placed the means for your salvation, yet does He remain the |
| W2:WIC.2 | means for your salvation, yet does He remain the Self Who, like His | Father, knows no sin. |
| W2:271.1 | death. For nothing that He looks on but must live, remembering the | Father and the Son; Creator and creation unified. |
| W2:271.2 | Father, Christ's vision is the way to You. What He beholds invites | |
| W2:272.1 | Father, the truth belongs to me. My home is set in Heaven by Your | |
| W2:273.2 | Father, Your peace is mine. What need have I to fear that anything | |
| W2:274.1 | Father, today I would let all things be as You created them and give | |
| W2:274.2 | A special blessing comes to us today from Him Who is our | Father. Give this day to Him and there will be no fear today because |
| W2:275.2 | what words to give the world. The safety that I bring is given me. | Father, Your Voice protects all things through me. |
| W2:276.1 | “My Son is pure and holy as Myself.” And thus did God become the | Father of the Son He loves, for thus was he created. This the Word |
| W2:276.1 | Love, and we deny our Self, to be unsure of who we are, of who our | Father is, and for what purpose we have come. And yet we need but to |
| W2:276.2 | Father, Your Word is mine. And it is this that I would speak to all | |
| W2:277.1 | Your Son is free, my | Father. Let me not imagine I have bound him with the laws I made to |
| W2:278.1 | in which all things that seem to live appear to die, then is my | Father prisoner with me. And this do I believe when I maintain the |
| W2:278.1 | and cannot be escaped. If I am bound in any way, I do not know my | Father or my Self. And I am lost to all reality. For truth is free, |
| W2:278.2 | Father, I ask for nothing but the truth. I have had many foolish | |
| W2:279.2 | I will accept Your promises today and give my faith to them. My | Father loves the Son Whom He created as His own. Would You withhold |
| W2:280.1 | God but is forever pure. Can I lay limits on the Son of God, whose | Father willed that he be limitless and like Himself in freedom and in |
| W2:280.2 | let me give honor to Your Son, for thus alone I find the way to You. | Father, I lay no limits on the Son You love and You created |
| W2:WIHS.3 | If you but knew how much your | Father yearns to have you recognize your sinlessness, you would not |
| W2:281.1 | Father, Your Son is perfect. When he thinks that he is hurt in any | |
| W2:281.2 | I will not hurt myself today. For I am far beyond all pain. My | Father placed me safe in Heaven, watching over me. And I would not |
| W2:282.1 | decision not to be insane and to accept myself as God Himself, my | Father and my Source, created me. This the determination not to be |
| W2:282.2 | Father, Your Name is Love, and so is mine. Such is the truth. And can | |
| W2:283.1 | Father, I made an image of myself, and it is this I call the Son of | |
| W2:283.1 | Your creation is unchangeable. Let me not worship idols. I am He my | Father loves. His holiness remains the light of Heaven and the Love |
| W2:283.2 | Now are we one in shared Identity, with God our | Father as our only Source and everything created part of us. And so |
| W2:284.2 | Father, what You have given cannot hurt, and grief and pain must be | |
| W2:285.2 | Father, my holiness is Yours. Let me rejoice in it and through | |
| W2:286.1 | Father, how still today! How quietly do all things fall in place! | |
| W2:287.2 | You are my goal, my | Father. What but You could I desire to have? What way but that which |
| W2:289.2 | Father, let me not look upon a past that is not there. For You have | |
| W2:290.2 | today while I but seek to do Your Will. You cannot fail to hear me, | Father. What I ask have You already given me, and I am sure that I |
| W2:291.2 | myself. I do not know the way to You. But You are wholly certain. | Father, lead Your Son along the quiet path that ends in You. Let my |
| W2:292.2 | We thank You, | Father, for Your guarantee of only happy outcomes in the end. Help us |
| W2:293.2 | Father, let not Your holy world escape my sight today. Nor let my | |
| W2:294.2 | My body, | Father, cannot be Your Son. And what is not created cannot be sinful |
| W2:295.2 | My | Father, Christ has asked a gift of me, and one I give that it be |
| W2:297.2 | Father, how certain are Your ways, how sure their final outcome, and | |
| W2:298.2 | Father, I come to You today, because I would not follow any way but | |
| W2:298.2 | and escape from everything that would obscure my love for God, my | Father, and His holy Son. |
| W2:299.1 | is far beyond my own ability to understand or know. Yet God my | Father, Who created it, acknowledges my holiness as His. Our will |
| W2:299.2 | Father, my holiness is not of me. It is not mine to be destroyed by | |
| W2:WISC.4 | which all Sons of God acknowledge that they all are one. And God the | Father smiles upon His Son, His one creation and His only joy. |
| W2:301.1 | Father, unless I judge I cannot weep. Nor can I suffer pain or feel I | |
| W2:301.1 | all the tears I shed will be forgotten, for their source is gone. | Father, I will not judge Your world today. |
| W2:302.1 | Father, our eyes are opening at last. Your holy world awaits us, as | |
| W2:303.2 | Your Son is welcome, | Father. He has come to save me from the evil self I made. He is the |
| W2:304.2 | and thus receive salvation for the world. It is Your gift, my | Father, given me to offer to Your holy Son that he may find again the |
| W2:305.2 | Father, the peace of Christ is given us because it is Your will that | |
| W2:306.2 | And so, our | Father, we return to You, remembering we never went away, remembering |
| W2:307.1 | Father, Your will is mine, and only that. There is no other will for | |
| W2:308.2 | Thanks for this instant, | Father. It is now I am redeemed. This instant is the time You have |
| W2:309.2 | The step I take today, my | Father, is my sure release from idle dreams of sin. Your altar stands |
| W2:310.1 | This day, my | Father, would I spend with You, as You have chosen all my days should |
| W2:WILJ.5 | and forever pure. Therefore awaken and return to Me. I am your | Father and you are My Son.” |
| W2:311.2 | Father, we wait with open mind today to hear Your Judgment of the Son | |
| W2:312.2 | upon a liberated world, set free from all the judgments I have made. | Father, this is Your will for me today, and therefore it must be my |
| W2:313.1 | Father, there is a vision which beholds all things as sinless, so | |
| W2:314.2 | Father, we were mistaken in the past and choose to use the present to | |
| W2:315.2 | I thank You, | Father, for the many gifts that come to me today and every day from |
| W2:316.1 | allows a past mistake to go and leave no shadow on the holy mind my | Father loves. His grace is given me in every gift a brother has |
| W2:316.2 | Father, I would accept Your gifts today. I do not recognize them. Yet | |
| W2:317.2 | Father, Your way is what I choose today. Where it would lead me, do I | |
| W2:318.2 | Let me today, my | Father, take the role You offer me in Your request that I accept |
| W2:319.2 | Father, Your Will is total. And the goal that stems from it shares | |
| W2:320.1 | no limits on his strength, his peace, his joy, or any attributes his | Father gave in his creation. What he wills with his Creator and |
| W2:320.1 | Redeemer must be done. His holy will can never be denied because his | Father shines upon his mind and lays before it all the strength and |
| W2:WICR.5 | Our | Father calls to us. We hear His Voice, and we forgive creation in the |
| W2:321.1 | made me free nor what my freedom is nor where to look to find it. | Father, I have searched in vain until I heard Your Voice directing |
| W2:321.1 | directs me. And the way to You is opening and clear to me at last. | Father, my freedom is in You alone. Father, it is my will that I |
| W2:321.1 | opening and clear to me at last. Father, my freedom is in You alone. | Father, it is my will that I return. |
| W2:321.2 | us. How glad are we to find our freedom through the certain way our | Father has established. And how sure is all the world's salvation |
| W2:322.2 | Father, to You all sacrifice remains forever inconceivable. And so I | |
| W2:324.1 | Father, You are the One Who gave the plan for my salvation to me. You | |
| W2:325.2 | Our | Father, Your Ideas reflect the truth, and mine apart from Yours but |
| W2:326.1 | Father, I was created in Your Mind, a holy thought that never left | |
| W2:327.2 | Father, I thank You that Your promises will never fail in my | |
| W2:328.1 | is sickness, suffering and loss, and death. This is not what our | Father wills for us, nor is there any second to His Will. To join |
| W2:328.2 | eternally at peace. And happily I share that will which You, my | Father, gave as part of me. |
| W2:329.1 | Father, I thought I wandered from Your Will, defied it, broke its | |
| W2:329.1 | for all eternity. It cannot change and be in opposition to itself. | Father, my will is Yours. And I am safe, untroubled and serene in |
| W2:330.2 | Father, Your Son cannot be hurt. And if we think we suffer, we but | |
| W2:331.1 | How foolish, | Father, to believe Your Son could cause himself to suffer! Could he |
| W2:331.1 | and be left without a certain way to his release? You love me, | Father. You could never leave me desolate, to die within a world of |
| W2:332.2 | prisoner. And yet Your Love has given us the means to set it free. | Father, we would release it now. For as we offer freedom, it is given |
| W2:333.2 | Father, forgiveness is the light You chose to shine away all conflict | |
| W2:334.1 | I will not wait another day to find the treasures which my | Father offers me. Illusions must be vain and dreams are gone, even |
| W2:336.2 | wipe away my dreams of separation and of sin. Then let me, | Father, look within and find Your promise of my sinlessness is kept; |
| W2:337.1 | mine, to feel God's Love protecting me from harm, to understand my | Father loves His Son, to know I am the Son my Father loves. |
| W2:337.1 | harm, to understand my Father loves His Son, to know I am the Son my | Father loves. |
| W2:337.2 | mistaken when I thought I sinned, but I accept Atonement for myself. | Father, my dream is ended now. Amen. |
| W2:338.2 | Your plan is sure, my | Father—only Yours. All other plans will fail. And I will have |
| W2:339.2 | Father, this is Your day. It is a day in which I would do nothing by | |
| W2:340.1 | Father, I thank You for today and for the freedom I am certain it | |
| W2:340.1 | and be free forever from all suffering. Thanks for today, my | Father. I was born into this world but to achieve this day and what |
| W2:340.2 | Be glad! There is no room for anything but joy and thanks today. Our | Father has redeemed His Son this day! Not one of us but will be saved |
| W2:340.2 | will be saved today. Not one who will remain in fear, and none the | Father will not gather to Himself, awake in Heaven in the Heart of |
| W2:341.1 | Father, Your Son is holy. I am he on whom You smile in love and | |
| W2:342.1 | I thank You, | Father, for Your plan to save me from the hell I made. It is not |
| W2:344.1 | This is Your law, my | Father, not my own. I have not understood what giving means and |
| W2:345.1 | Father, a miracle reflects Your gifts to me, Your Son. And every one | |
| W2:345.1 | in just the form I need to help me with the problems I perceive. | Father, in Heaven it is different, for there, there are no needs. But |
| W2:346.1 | Father, I wake today with miracles correcting my perception of all | |
| W2:347.1 | Father, I want what goes against my will and do not want what is my | |
| W2:347.1 | will and do not want what is my will to have. Straighten my mind, my | Father. It is sick. But You have offered freedom, and I choose to |
| W2:348.1 | Father, let me remember You are here, and I am not alone. Surrounding | |
| W2:349.1 | be given me because I have chosen it as the gift I want to give. | Father, Your gifts are mine. Each one that I accept gives me a |
| W2:349.2 | Our | Father knows our needs. He gives us grace to meet them all. And so we |
| W2:350.1 | But what he looks upon is their direct result. Therefore, my | Father, I would turn to You. Only Your memory will set me free. And |
| W2:351.1 | beside me, and my way secure and clear. Choose, then, for me, my | Father, through Your Voice. For He alone gives judgment in Your Name. |
| W2:352.1 | I have within me both the memory of You and One Who leads me to it. | Father, I would hear Your Voice and find Your peace today. For I |
| W2:353.1 | Father, I give all that is mine today to Christ to use in any way | |
| W2:354.1 | the Christ in me. I have no purpose but His own. And He is like His | Father. Thus must I be one with You as well as Him. For who is Christ |
| W2:355.1 | Why should I wait, my | Father, for the joy You promised me? For You will keep Your Word You |

| Tx:21.57 | mind where reason lies was dedicated by your will in union with your | Father's to the undoing of insanity. Here was the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:22.15 | home, for here you will with Him and with His Father. This is your | Father's Will for you, and yours with His. And who is drawn to Christ |
| Tx:22.24 | before. Only if it were possible the Son of God could leave his | Father's Mind, make himself different, and oppose His Will, would it |
| Tx:23.11 | to teach the Son of God that he is not himself and not his | Father's Son. For this, the memory of his Father must be forgotten. |
| Tx:23.54 | Think what is given those who share their | Father's purpose and who know that it is theirs! They want for |
| Tx:24.72 | outside yourself, your own beloved son. The other rests within, His | Father's Son, within your brother as he is in you. Their difference |
| Tx:24.72 | all aspects with a different purpose. The Son of God retains His | Father's Will. The son of man perceives an alien will and wishes it |
| Tx:25.8 | abides within your understanding in the part of you that shares His | Father's Will. The Holy Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad |
| Tx:25.19 | see the savior from the dark and understand your brother as his | Father's Mind shows him to you. He will step forth from darkness as |

| Tx:25.53 | To justify one value that the world upholds is to deny your | Father's sanity and yours. For God and His beloved Son do not think |
| Tx:25.53 | believe one thought opposed to truth, he has decided he is not his | Father's Son because the Son is mad, and sanity must lie apart from |
| Tx:25.62 | Son of God. He cannot lose, for if he could, the loss would be his | Father's, and in Him no loss is possible. And this is sane because it |
| Tx:26.8 | Could it be that you could make his sins reality and sacrifice his | Father's Will for him? |
| Tx:26.17 | and locked will merely fall away and disappear. For it is not your | Father's Will that you should offer or receive less than He gave when |
| Tx:26.28 | and none is cherished more than any other. Each reminds him of His | Father's love as surely as the rest. And each one teaches him that |
| Tx:26.39 | God's Son entered an instant, to be instantly restored unto His | Father's perfect Love. And how can he be kept in chains long since |
| Tx:26.87 | he is, denied the right to be himself, and asked to sacrifice his | Father's love and yours as not his due? |

| Tx:8.18 | Creator. The Father must give fatherhood to His Son, because His own | Fatherhood must be extended outward. You who belong in God have the |
| Tx:8.18 | You who belong in God have the holy function of extending His | Fatherhood by placing no limits upon it. Let the Holy Spirit teach |
| Tx:8.47 | except as God does. His joy lay in creating you, and He extends His | Fatherhood to you so that you can extend yourself as He did. You do |
| Tx:9.105 | anything God did not create, or you are denying Him. His is the only | Fatherhood, and it is yours only because He has given it to you. Your |

| Tx:10.9 | Do not deny Him His Son, for your unwillingness to accept His | Fatherhood has denied you yours. See His creations as His Son, for |
| Tx:10.11 | to accept Him depends on your willingness to give as He gives. Your | fatherhood and your Father are one. God willed to create, and your |
| Tx:10.17 | Every miracle which you accomplish speaks to you of the | Fatherhood of God. Every healing thought which you accept, either |

| Tx:28.17 | Fatherhood is creation. Love must be extended. Purity is not | |
| Tx:30.60 | because it is but God Who could create a perfect Son and share His | Fatherhood with him. No one outside of Heaven knows how this can be, |
| W1:132.13 | the world! Your real creations wait for this release to give you | fatherhood, not of illusions, but as God in truth. God shares His |

| Tx:2.15 | All | fear is ultimately reducible to the basic misperception that man has |
| Tx:2.15 | this. In this fact lies the real justification for his escape from | fear. The escape is brought about by his acceptance of the Atonement, |

| Tx:2.46 | to fear because fear did not exist. Both the separation and the | fear are miscreations of the mind which must be undone. This is what |
| Tx:2.52 | applied is irrelevant. Essentially, all healing is the release from | fear. To undertake this, you cannot be fearful yourself. You do not |

| Tx:2.58 | that can help the non-right-minded, or the sick, is an increase in | fear. They are already in a fear-weakened state. If they are |
| Tx:2.59 | expressed in a language which the recipient can understand without | fear. It does not follow by any means that this is the highest level |
| Tx:2.60 | in this world, it is essential that they fully understand the | fear of release. Otherwise, they may unwittingly foster the belief |
| Tx:2.60 | can be limited to the body. This was because of the much greater | fear that the mind can hurt itself. Neither error is really |
| Tx:2.62 | any healing they might induce and, because egocentricity and | fear usually occur together, may be unable to accept the real Source |
| Tx:2.64 | propensities are not functioning properly, it is always because | fear has intruded on your right-mindedness and has literally upset it |
| Tx:2.67 | from the belief in physical sight. The reason this so often entails | fear is because man is afraid of what his Spiritual eye will see. We |
| Tx:2.68 | Nothing the Spiritual eye perceives can induce | fear. Everything that results from accurate spiritual awareness is |
| Tx:2.69 | The | fear of healing arises, in the end, from an unwillingness to accept |
| Tx:2.72 | Christ-guidance can direct everything that does if you so choose. | Fear cannot be Christ-controlled, but it can be self-controlled. It |
| Tx:2.73 | The reason I cannot control | fear for you is that you are attempting to raise to the mind level |
| Tx:2.75 | at the symptom level, where it cannot work. The correction of | fear is your responsibility. When you ask for release from fear, you |
| Tx:2.75 | of fear is your responsibility. When you ask for release from | fear, you are implying that it is not. You should ask instead for |

| Tx:2.76 | Fear is always a sign of strain, which arises whenever the will to do | |
| Tx:2.80 | Remember that whenever there is | fear, it is because you have not made up your mind. Your will is |
| Tx:2.80 | second type of strain described above but will not obliterate the | fear. It is possible to reach a state in which you bring your will |
| Tx:2.81 | repeat it, urging you to listen. Only your mind can produce | fear. It does so whenever it is conflicted in what it wills, thus |
| Tx:2.82 | The first corrective step is know first that this is an expression of | fear. Then say to yourself that you must somehow have willed not to |
| Tx:2.82 | to yourself that you must somehow have willed not to love, or the | fear which arises from behavior-will conflict could not have arisen. |
| Tx:2.83 | 1. Know first that this is | fear. |
| Tx:2.84 | 2. | Fear arises from lack of love. |
| Tx:2.87 | However, as soon as you remedy it, you have also abolished the | fear. This is how true healing occurs. |
| Tx:2.88 | Everyone experiences | fear, and no one enjoys it. Yet it would take very little |
| Tx:2.88 | it. Yet it would take very little right-thinking to realize why | fear occurs. Very few people appreciate the real power of the mind, |
| Tx:2.88 | of it all the time. However, if anyone hopes to spare himself from | fear, there are some things he must realize and realize fully. The |

| Tx:2.93 | You who constantly complain about | fear still persist in creating it. I told you before that you cannot |

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

| Tx:3.66 | holding onto judgment. You will also use the term with considerable | fear, believing that judgment will someday be used against you. To |
| Tx:3.70 | everyone must decide is the fundamental question of authorship. All | fear comes ultimately and sometimes by way of very devious routes |
| Tx:3.76 | by a tendency of the self to create an image of itself. Its | fear aspect is often ascribed to fear of retaliation by a “father |
| Tx:3.76 | to create an image of itself. Its fear aspect is often ascribed to | fear of retaliation by a “father figure,” a particularly curious idea |
| Tx:3.77 | inconceivable. That is why you cannot create and are filled with | fear about what you make. |
| Tx:3.79 | you become so fearful. As you approach the beginning, you feel the | fear of the destruction of your thought system upon you, as if it |
| Tx:3.79 | the destruction of your thought system upon you, as if it were the | fear of death. There is no death, but there is a belief in death. |
| Tx:3.80 | system will stand corrected. It cannot stand otherwise. You who | fear salvation are willing death. Life and death, light and darkness, |
| Tx:4.9 | of the ego to the light of the Soul. This is the change the ego must | fear because it does not share my charity. My lesson was like yours, |
| Tx:4.9 | remind you of your true creation, your egos cannot but respond with | fear. |
| Tx:4.16 | God is not the author of | fear. You are. You have chosen, therefore, to create unlike Him, and |
| Tx:4.16 | You have chosen, therefore, to create unlike Him, and you have made | fear for yourselves. You are not at peace because you are not |
| Tx:4.17 | protection from the ego and become totally without the investment in | fear. Your investment is great now because fear is a witness to the |
| Tx:4.17 | without the investment in fear. Your investment is great now because | fear is a witness to the separation, and your ego rejoices when you |
| Tx:4.47 | call of the body. That is why the basic conflict between love and | fear is unconscious; the ego cannot tolerate either and represses |
| Tx:4.70 | in terms of threat or non-threat to itself. In one sense the ego's | fear of the idea of God is at least logical, since this idea does |
| Tx:4.70 | of God is at least logical, since this idea does dispel the ego. | Fear of dissolution from the Higher Source, then, makes some sense in |
| Tx:4.70 | from the Higher Source, then, makes some sense in ego-terms. But | fear of the body, with which the ego identifies so closely, is more |
| Tx:4.82 | are the same, the ego decides that, since “all” is impossible, the | fear does not lie there. “A little,” however, is a scarcity concept, |
| Tx:4.104 | The ego is likely to | fear broken bodies because it cannot tolerate them. The ego cannot |
| Tx:5.2 | whole-heartedly. To be whole-hearted, you must be happy. If | fear and love cannot coexist and if it is impossible to be wholly |
| Tx:5.35 | an ego-alien journey with the ego as guide. This is bound to produce | fear. |
| Tx:5.45 | Spirit within you, and we know what God creates is eternal. What | fear has hidden still is part of you. |
| Tx:5.46 | which I have repeatedly asked you to do, is always a way out of | fear. This does not mean that you can safely fail to acknowledge |
| Tx:5.59 | ego has a purpose, just as the Holy Spirit has. The ego's purpose is | fear because only the fearful can be egotistic. The ego's logic is as |
| Tx:5.60 | it is whole. Guilt is always disruptive. Anything that engenders | fear is divisive because it obeys the law of division. If the ego is |
| Tx:5.61 | you respond to your ego, you will experience guilt and you will | fear punishment. The ego is quite literally a fearful thought. |
| Tx:5.62 | that a part of Him has been torn away by you. The classic picture of | fear of retaliation from without then follows because the severity of |
| Tx:5.77 | thought and thus release their thoughts from the ability to produce | fear anywhere in the Sonship. “The wicked shall perish” is merely a |
| Tx:5.78 | unsharing, it will be reinterpreted entirely to release you from | fear. The part of your thought which you have given to the ego will |
| Tx:5.83 | understanding because he was afraid and, as you know all too well, | fear is incompatible with good judgment. Fear distorts thinking and |
| Tx:5.83 | as you know all too well, fear is incompatible with good judgment. | Fear distorts thinking and therefore disorders thought. |
| Tx:5.87 | of, he was too honest to deny more than was necessary to keep his | fear in tolerable bounds as he perceived the situation. Therefore, he |
| Tx:6.1 | to attack is obvious, but the inevitable association of anger and | fear is not always so clear. Anger always involves projection of |
| Tx:6.4 | positive interpretation of the crucifixion which is wholly devoid of | fear and therefore wholly benign in what it teaches if it is properly |
| Tx:6.5 | that the Sonship need take and that it should mean release from | fear to anyone who understands it. While we emphasized only the |
| Tx:6.5 | to make to your own lives, and if you will consider it without | fear, it will help you understand your own role as teachers. |
| Tx:6.6 | Projection means anger, anger fosters assault, and assault promotes | fear. The real meaning of the crucifixion lies in the apparent |
| Tx:6.19 | love made them vulnerable to projection, and out of their own | fear they spoke of the “wrath of God” as His retaliatory weapon. Nor |
| Tx:6.22 | time. I emphasize this only because I do not want you to allow any | fear to enter into the thought system toward which I am guiding you. |
| Tx:6.24 | You cannot love what you do not appreciate, and | fear makes appreciation impossible. Whenever you are afraid of what |
| Tx:6.48 | you will be afraid, because you are siding with an alliance of | fear. |
| Tx:6.65 | communicating is sharing, it becomes communion. You might argue that | fear as well as love can be communicated and therefore can be shared. |
| Tx:6.65 | shared. Yet this is not so real as it sounds. Those who communicate | fear are promoting attack, and attack always breaks communication, |
| Tx:6.70 | All the separated ones have a basic | fear of retaliation and abandonment. This is because they believe in |
| Tx:7.38 | Holy Spirit in both of you, because it is a refusal to acknowledge | fear. Love needs only this invitation. It comes freely to all the |
| Tx:7.45 | Love is incapable of any exceptions. Only if there is | fear does the idea of exceptions seem to be meaningful. Exceptions |
| Tx:7.45 | to be meaningful. Exceptions are fearful, because they are made by | fear. The “fearful healer” is a contradiction in terms and is |
| Tx:7.45 | which only a conflicted mind could possibly perceive as meaningful. | Fear does not gladden. Healing does. Fear always makes exceptions. |
| Tx:7.45 | perceive as meaningful. Fear does not gladden. Healing does. | Fear always makes exceptions. Healing never does. Fear produces |
| Tx:7.45 | Healing does. Fear always makes exceptions. Healing never does. | Fear produces dissociation, because it induces separation. Healing |
| Tx:7.49 | shows you an image, or better, an idol which you may worship out of | fear but which you will never love. The other shows you only truth, |
| Tx:7.54 | If it is not relinquished entirely, it is not relinquished at all. | Fear and love are equally reciprocal. They make or create, depending |
| Tx:7.58 | Mind always reproduces as it was produced. Produced by | fear, the ego reproduces fear. This is its allegiance, and this |
| Tx:7.58 | reproduces as it was produced. Produced by fear, the ego reproduces | fear. This is its allegiance, and this allegiance makes it |
| Tx:7.104 | to follow false guidance. Unable to follow this guidance without | fear, he associates fear with guidance and refuses to follow any |
| Tx:7.104 | guidance. Unable to follow this guidance without fear, he associates | fear with guidance and refuses to follow any guidance at all. [If the |
| Tx:7.109 | peace and shine love upon him? Does it keep his heart untouched by | fear and allow him to give always without any sense of loss? Does it |
| Tx:8.26 | everything. It is therefore an illusion of isolation, maintained by | fear of the same loneliness which is its illusion. I have told you |
| Tx:8.40 | Ours is simply the journey back to God, Who is our home. Whenever | fear intrudes anywhere along the road to peace, it is always because |
| Tx:8.82 | forms of sickness, even unto death, are physical expressions of the | fear of awakening. They are attempts to reinforce unconsciousness out |
| Tx:8.82 | of awakening. They are attempts to reinforce unconsciousness out of | fear of consciousness. This is a pathetic way of trying not to know |
| Tx:8.84 | Healing is release from the | fear of waking and the substitution of the will to wake. The will to |
| Tx:8.84 | to wake is the will to love, since all healing involves replacing | fear with love. The Holy Spirit cannot distinguish among degrees of |
| Tx:8.86 | followers and also its translators to be entirely literal about | fear and its effects but not about love and its results. Thus, |
| Tx:8.90 | Fear of the Will of God is one of the strangest beliefs that the | |
| Tx:8.90 | ego's, and that is why the ego is against you. What seems to be the | fear of God is really only the fear of your own reality. |
| Tx:8.90 | is against you. What seems to be the fear of God is really only the | fear of your own reality. |
| Tx:8.92 | The association of truth and | fear, which would be highly artificial at most, is particularly |
| Tx:8.94 | The only source of | fear in this whole process can only be what you think you lose. Yet |
| Tx:8.97 | and the martyr believes that God is crucifying him. Both really | fear abandonment and retaliation, but the atheist is more reactive |
| Tx:8.99 | are no unbelievers and no sacrifices. In the security of reality, | fear is totally meaningless. To deny what is can only seem to be |
| Tx:8.99 | is totally meaningless. To deny what is can only seem to be fearful. | Fear cannot be real without a cause, and God is the only Cause. God |
| Tx:8.101 | The energy which you withdraw from creation you expend on | fear. This is not because your energy is limited but because you have |
| Tx:8.104 | make the unreal, because the absence of reality is fearful, and | fear cannot be created. As long as you believe that fear is possible, |
| Tx:8.104 | is fearful, and fear cannot be created. As long as you believe that | fear is possible, you will not create. Opposing orders of reality |
| Tx:8.107 | does state, and repeatedly, that its purpose is the escape from | fear. |
| Tx:8.108 | expression. In this case he is not really asking for release from | fear but for the removal of a symptom which he has selected. This |
| Tx:8.109 | given by the Holy Spirit will ever be one which would increase | fear. It is possible that His answer will not be heard at all. It is |
| Tx:9.13 | which are eternal. Forgiveness that is learned of me does not use | fear to undo fear. Nor does it make real the unreal and then destroy |
| Tx:9.13 | eternal. Forgiveness that is learned of me does not use fear to undo | fear. Nor does it make real the unreal and then destroy it. |
| Tx:9.17 | literally lives on borrowed time, and its days are numbered. Do not | fear the Last Judgment, but welcome it and do not wait, for the ego's |
| Tx:9.22 | condemnation onto God, they make Him appear retaliative and | fear His retribution. What they have done is merely to identify with |
| Tx:9.24 | usually does note, even in its confusion. If the way to counteract | fear is to reduce the importance of the fearer, how can this build |
| Tx:9.69 | give up the dissociation of reality brings more than merely lack of | fear. In this decision lie joy and peace and the glory of creation. |
| Tx:9.83 | is not due to illusions, for to honor them is to honor nothing. Yet | fear is not due them either, for nothing cannot be fearful. You have |
| Tx:9.83 | due them either, for nothing cannot be fearful. You have chosen to | fear love because of its perfect harmlessness, and because of this |
| Tx:9.83 | fear love because of its perfect harmlessness, and because of this | fear, you have been willing to give up your own perfect helpfulness |
| Tx:10.14 | it is not yours. This belief is your whole sickness and your whole | fear. Every symptom of sickness and fear arises here because this is |
| Tx:10.14 | whole sickness and your whole fear. Every symptom of sickness and | fear arises here because this is the belief that makes you want not |
| Tx:10.26 | of which God knows nothing. That way is hard indeed and very lonely. | Fear and grief are your guests, and they go with you and abide with |
| Tx:10.40 | afraid, therefore, for what you will be looking at is the source of | fear, but you have surely learned by now that fear is not real. We |
| Tx:10.40 | at is the source of fear, but you have surely learned by now that | fear is not real. We have accepted the fact already that its effects |
| Tx:10.41 | Do not be afraid, then, to look upon | fear, for it cannot be seen. Clarity undoes confusion by definition, |
| Tx:10.43 | but delusions. We can surely regard a delusional system without | fear, for it cannot have any effects if its source is not true. Fear |
| Tx:10.43 | fear, for it cannot have any effects if its source is not true. | Fear becomes more obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the ego's |
| Tx:10.47 | realize is that you are afraid of it. For if the ego gives rise to | fear, it is diminishing your independence and weakening your power. |
| Tx:10.48 | uninvolved, and even desperate, but not really afraid. Minimizing | fear but not its undoing is the ego's constant effort and is indeed |
| Tx:10.48 | ingenious. How can it preach separation without upholding it through | fear, and would you listen to it if you recognized this is what it is |
| Tx:10.49 | Your recognition that whatever seems to separate you from God is only | fear, regardless of the form it takes and quite apart from how the |
| Tx:10.49 | a false idea of independence, you will not accept the cost of | fear if you recognize it. Yet this is the cost, and the ego cannot |
| Tx:10.49 | For if you overlook love, you are overlooking yourself, and you must | fear unreality because you have denied yourself. By believing that |
| Tx:10.50 | could be defeated, and this is impossible. Only by learning what | fear is, can you finally learn to distinguish the possible from the |
| Tx:10.51 | which you have pursued quite diligently, has [only] brought you | fear, and it becomes difficult to maintain that fear is happiness. |
| Tx:10.51 | [only] brought you fear, and it becomes difficult to maintain that | fear is happiness. |
| Tx:10.52 | Upheld by | fear, this is what the ego would have you believe. Yet God's Son is |
| Tx:10.52 | it, and he will not accept it. For only the insane would choose | fear in place of love, and only the insane could believe that love |
| Tx:10.52 | gained by attack. But the sane know that only attack could produce | fear from which the love of God completely protects them. |
| Tx:10.80 | the one is many. Realize that you are afraid of His specificity for | fear of what you think it will demand of you. Yet only by asking will |
| Tx:10.83 | Blessed are you who will ask the truth of God without | fear, for only thus can you learn that His answer is the release from |
| Tx:10.83 | for only thus can you learn that His answer is the release from | fear. Beautiful Child of God, you are asking only for what I promised |
| Tx:10.88 | willing to let their interpretations go in favor of reality, their | fear goes with them. When a child is helped to translate his “ghost” |
| Tx:10.88 | into a dream, he is no longer afraid and laughs happily at his own | fear. You, my children, are afraid of your brothers and of your |
| Tx:10.89 | you too will laugh at your fears and replace them with peace. For | fear lies not in reality, but in the minds of children who do not |
| Tx:11.9 | that His criteria are equally applicable to you. For to recognize | fear is not enough to escape from it, although the recognition is |
| Tx:11.9 | Spirit must still translate it into truth. If you were left with the | fear, having recognized it, you would have taken a step away from |
| Tx:11.9 | towards it. Yet we have repeatedly emphasized the need to recognize | fear and face it without disguise as a crucial step in the undoing of |

| Tx:11.13 | of truth cannot be denied. Thus does the Holy Spirit replace | fear with love and translate error into truth. And thus will you |
| Tx:11.21 | There is no | fear in perfect love. We will but be making perfect to you what is |
| Tx:11.21 | be making perfect to you what is already perfect in you. You do not | fear the unknown, but the known. You will not fail in your mission |
| Tx:11.22 | to banish love have not succeeded, but you who choose to banish | fear will succeed. The Lord is with you, but you know it not. Yet |
| Tx:11.22 | Would you not exchange this awareness for the awareness of your | fear? When we have overcome fear—not by hiding it, not by |
| Tx:11.22 | this awareness for the awareness of your fear? When we have overcome | fear—not by hiding it, not by minimizing it, not by denying its |
| Tx:11.23 | the world as you perceive it than for looking at the cause of | fear and letting it go forever? |
| Tx:11.78 | as his Father, for the Son knows his Father's protection and cannot | fear. His Father's love holds him in perfect peace, and needing |
| Tx:12.6 | fully justifies murder. You do not yet understand that all your | fear of this course stems ultimately from this interpretation, but if |
| Tx:12.8 | believe it will kill you. Make no mistake about the depth of your | fear. For you believe that in the presence of truth you will turn on |
| Tx:12.9 | lies your remembering, for it is the recognition of love without | fear. There will be great joy in Heaven on your homecoming, and the |
| Tx:12.10 | you do not yet realize. We have said that no one will countenance | fear if he recognizes it. Yet in your disordered state, you are not |

| Tx:12.11 | You could look even upon the ego's darkest cornerstone without | fear if you did not believe that, without the ego, you would find |
| Tx:12.11 | that, without the ego, you would find within yourself something you | fear even more. You are not afraid of crucifixion. Your real terror |
| Tx:12.12 | Your | fear of attack is nothing compared to your fear of love. You would be |
| Tx:12.12 | Your fear of attack is nothing compared to your | fear of love. You would be willing to look even upon your savage wish |
| Tx:12.17 | and search your minds carefully for any thoughts which you may | fear to uncover. For He will heal every little thought which you have |
| Tx:12.19 | you will not be healed completely. Healing must be as complete as | fear, for love cannot enter where there is one spot of fear to mar |

| Tx:12.20 | his Father. He feared what he had made, but still more did he | fear his real Father, having attacked his own glorious equality with |
| Tx:12.33 | We have said that you have but two emotions, love and | fear. One is changeless but continually exchanged, being offered by |
| Tx:12.37 | what he loves and recoils from what he fears. And you react with | fear to love and draw away from it. Yet fear attracts you, and |
| Tx:12.37 | he fears. And you react with fear to love and draw away from it. Yet | fear attracts you, and believing it is love, you call it to yourself. |
| Tx:12.37 | it to yourself. Your private world is filled with the figures of | fear you have invited into it, and all the love your brothers offer |
| Tx:12.42 | vision of Christ, Who looks on all in light. Your vision comes from | fear, as His from love. And He sees for you as your witness to the |
| Tx:13.17 | of what you would see there, but it is not there. The thing you | fear is gone. If you would look within, you would see only the |
| Tx:13.27 | insane, wholly unjustified, and wholly without reason, you will not | fear to look upon the Atonement and accept it wholly. |
| Tx:13.28 | peace within you is the perfect purity in which you were created. | Fear not to look upon the lovely truth in you. Look through the cloud |
| Tx:13.29 | has always loved His Son. And as His son loves Him. There is no | fear in love, for love is guiltless. You who have always loved your |
| Tx:13.29 | love is guiltless. You who have always loved your Father can have no | fear for any reason to look within and see your holiness. You cannot |
| Tx:13.33 | I give my Father. My trust in you is without limit and without the | fear that you will hear me not. I thank the Father for your |
| Tx:13.40 | to help you realize that this is what you want, and only this. | Fear not the Holy Spirit will fail in what your Father has given Him |
| Tx:13.67 | I will make manifest. If I am guiltless, I have nothing to | fear. I choose to testify to my acceptance of the Atonement, not for |
| Tx:13.70 | to heal is another opportunity to replace darkness with light and | fear with love. If he refuses it, he binds himself to darkness |
| Tx:13.79 | is not a source of guilt. What cannot happen can have no effects to | fear. Be quiet in your faith in Him Who loves you and would lead you |
| Tx:14.10 | to Heaven and to the peace of God. There is no pain, no trial, no | fear that teaching this can fail to overcome. The power of God |
| Tx:14.14 | only guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would release from | fear and reestablish the reign of love. The power of love is in His |
| Tx:14.18 | As guardians of darkness and of ignorance, look to them only for | fear, for what they keep obscure is fearful. But let them go, and |
| Tx:14.25 | it becomes unreal to you because you hid it and surrounded it with | fear. Under each cornerstone of fear on which you have erected your |
| Tx:14.25 | you hid it and surrounded it with fear. Under each cornerstone of | fear on which you have erected your insane system of belief, the |
| Tx:14.25 | truth lies hidden. Yet you cannot know this, for by hiding truth in | fear, you see no reason to believe the more you look at fear, the |
| Tx:14.25 | truth in fear, you see no reason to believe the more you look at | fear, the less you see it, and the clearer what it conceals becomes. |
| Tx:14.27 | and equal in their reality. Their joining thus becomes the source of | fear, for if they meet, acceptance must be withdrawn from one of them. |
| Tx:14.28 | Truth does not struggle against ignorance, and love does not attack | fear. What needs no protection does not defend itself. Defense is of |
| Tx:14.41 | and loss with the immortal assurance of their Father's Love. There, | fear of death will be replaced with joy of living. For God is Life, |
| Tx:14.63 | to recognize if what you learned is true. If you are wholly free of | fear of any kind, and if all those who meet or even think of you |
| Tx:14.69 | solve by offering you a miracle. Miracles are for you. And every | fear or pain or trial you have has been undone. He has brought all of |
| Tx:15.4 | it unsatisfied. No one who follows the ego's teaching is without the | fear of death. Yet if death were thought of merely as an end to pain, |
| Tx:15.4 | before, but never so clearly as here. For the ego must seem to keep | fear from you to keep your allegiance. Yet it must engender fear in |
| Tx:15.4 | to keep fear from you to keep your allegiance. Yet it must engender | fear in order to maintain itself. |

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

| Tx:15.17 | For the instant of peace is eternal because it is wholly without | fear. It will come, being the lesson God gives you through the |
| Tx:15.21 | it as timeless, is to begin to experience yourself as not separate. | Fear not that you will not be given help in this. God's Teacher and |
| Tx:15.48 | Because of guilt, all special relationships have some elements of | fear in them. And this is why they shift and change so frequently. |
| Tx:15.48 | They are not based on changeless love alone. And love where | fear has entered cannot be depended on because it is not perfect. In |
| Tx:15.49 | them may be, He can translate them into holiness by removing as much | fear as you will let Him. You can place any relationship under His |
| Tx:15.62 | irresistibly into the light behind it can have faith in love without | fear. Yet the Holy Spirit gives you this faith because He offered it |
| Tx:15.62 | gives you this faith because He offered it to me and I accepted it. | Fear not the holy instant will be denied you, for I denied it not. |
| Tx:15.73 | as the price of union. In their angry alliances, born of the | fear of loneliness and yet dedicated to the continuance of |
| Tx:15.75 | your own need to communicate. The Holy Spirit cannot teach through | fear. And how can He communicate with you while you believe that to |
| Tx:15.77 | so holy and so strong that it can overcome even this without | fear. It is through the holy instant that what seems impossible is |
| Tx:15.79 | His concern and care for you are limitless. In the face of your | fear of forgiveness, which He perceives as clearly as He knows |
| Tx:15.81 | of your completion and seek not to restore it to yourselves. | Fear not to give redemption over to your Redeemer's love. He will not |
| Tx:15.95 | many forms, it is always the same idea. What is not love is always | fear and nothing else. It is not necessary to follow fear through all |
| Tx:15.95 | love is always fear and nothing else. It is not necessary to follow | fear through all the circuitous routes by which it burrows |
| Tx:15.96 | is attack, not love. If you would accept but this one idea, your | fear of love would vanish. Guilt cannot last when the idea of |
| Tx:15.98 | love demands sacrifice and is therefore inseparable from attack and | fear. And that guilt is the price of love, which must be paid by |
| Tx:15.98 | and fear. And that guilt is the price of love, which must be paid by | fear. How fearful, then, has God become to you, and how great a |
| Tx:15.101 | Fear not to recognize the whole idea of sacrifice as solely of your | |
| Tx:15.102 | the Presence of Holiness creates the holiness which surrounds it. No | fear can touch the host who cradles God in the time of Christ, for |
| Tx:15.104 | you excluded from yourself seems fearful, for you endowed it with | fear and tried to cast it out though it was part of you. Who can |
| Tx:16.16 | with Him is real and has been demonstrated. Regard this not with | fear but with rejoicing. The One you called upon is with you. Bid Him |
| Tx:16.16 | who bring you the glad tidings He has come. It is true, just as you | fear, that to acknowledge Him is to deny all that you think you know. |
| Tx:16.29 | than you think, and your foot is planted firmly on it. Have no | fear that the attraction of those who stand on the other side and |
| Tx:16.33 | which it would gladly come quietly to them. And when they find the | fear of death is still upon them, the love relationship loses the |
| Tx:16.33 | it is what it is not. For then the barricades against it are broken, | fear rushes in, and hatred triumphs. |
| Tx:16.35 | it is necessary to seek for what is false. Every illusion is one of | fear, whatever form it takes. And the attempt to escape from one |

| Tx:16.38 | only to be wholly like unto Him, completing Him by your completion. | Fear not to cross to the abode of peace and perfect holiness. Only |
| Tx:16.40 | Would you not go through | fear to love? For such the journey seems to be. Love calls, but hate |
| Tx:16.40 | For love is wholly without illusion and therefore wholly without | fear. Whom God remembers must be whole. And God has never forgotten |
| Tx:16.50 | it offered him to interfere with Heaven. Yet if all illusions are of | fear, and they can be of nothing else, the illusion of Heaven is |
| Tx:16.50 | the illusion of Heaven is nothing more than an “attractive” form of | fear in which the guilt is buried deep and rises in the form of |
| Tx:16.64 | in which a sense of actual disorientation seems to occur. But | fear it not, for it means nothing more than that you have been |
| Tx:16.65 | Fear not that you will be abruptly lifted up and hurled into reality. | |
| Tx:17.25 | or the veil of ugliness, the real world or the world of guilt and | fear, truth or illusion, freedom or slavery—it is all the same. For |
| Tx:17.77 | and pain, darkness and dim imaginings of terror, cold fantasies of | fear and fiery dreams of hell. And it was nothing but the intolerable |
| Tx:18.3 | The one emotion in which substitution is impossible is love. | Fear involves substitution by definition, for it is love's |
| Tx:18.3 | involves substitution by definition, for it is love's replacement. | Fear is both a fragmented and a fragmenting emotion. It seems to take |
| Tx:18.3 | or rejection of suitability for acting out a special form of | fear. |
| Tx:18.4 | You who believe that God is | fear made but one substitution. It has taken many forms because it |
| Tx:18.6 | of the original error rise to frighten you, say only, “God is not | fear, but love,” and it will disappear. |
| Tx:18.17 | seems to be. And yet the dream cannot escape its origin. Anger and | fear pervade it, and in an instant, the illusion of satisfaction is |
| Tx:18.20 | the first change, before dreams disappear, is that your dreams of | fear are changed to happy dreams. That is what the Holy Spirit does |
| Tx:18.25 | from the truth, sometimes retreating to the lesser forms of | fear and sometimes to stark terror. But you will advance because your |
| Tx:18.25 | terror. But you will advance because your goal is the advance from | fear to truth. You know this. The goal which you accepted is the goal |
| Tx:18.25 | is the goal of knowledge, for which you signified your willingness. | Fear seems to live in darkness, and when you are afraid, you have |
| Tx:18.26 | If you knew Who walks beside you on this way which you have chosen, | fear would be impossible. You do not know because the journey into |
| Tx:18.26 | which you have surrounded it. When you retreat to the illusion, your | fear increases, for there is little doubt that what you think it |
| Tx:18.26 | Yet what is that to us who travel surely and very swiftly away from | fear? |
| Tx:18.27 | to leave with me? In your relationship is this world's light. And | fear must disappear before you now. Be tempted not to snatch away the |
| Tx:18.30 | in our desire to make whole. Let not time worry you, for all the | fear that you experience is really past. Time has been readjusted to |
| Tx:18.30 | together what your separate pasts would hinder. You have gone past | fear, for no two minds can join in the desire for love without love's |
| Tx:18.38 | to bring Atonement to it and make salvation fearful. And it is only | fear that you will add if you prepare yourself for love. The |
| Tx:18.41 | For they are all but aspects of the plan to change your dreams of | fear to happy dreams from which you waken easily to knowledge. Put |
| Tx:18.42 | Never approach the holy instant after you have tried to remove all | fear and hatred from your mind. That is its function. Never attempt |
| Tx:18.42 | part is only to offer Him a little willingness to let Him remove all | fear and hatred and to be forgiven. On your little faith, joined with |
| Tx:18.45 | He can spread joy to thousands on thousands who believe that love is | fear, not happiness. Let Him fulfill the function that He gave to |
| Tx:18.46 | instantly and offer the Holy Spirit your willingness in spite of | fear to let Him exchange this instant for the holy one which you |
| Tx:18.46 | the fact that it is now impossible for either of you to experience | fear alone or to attempt to deal with it alone. Never believe that |
| Tx:18.59 | you have given up the illusion of a limited awareness and lost your | fear of union. The love that instantly replaces it extends to what |
| Tx:18.59 | of your Identity and would not limit it. You have escaped from | fear to peace, asking no questions of reality but merely accepting |
| Tx:18.87 | You are severely tempted to abandon Him at the outside ring of | fear, but He would lead you safely through and far beyond. |
| Tx:18.88 | The circle of | fear lies just below the level the body sees and seems to be the |
| Tx:19.11 | Faith is the opposite of | fear, as much a part of love as fear is of attack. Faith is the |
| Tx:19.11 | Faith is the opposite of fear, as much a part of love as | fear is of attack. Faith is the acknowledgment of union. It is the |
| Tx:19.25 | in sin, not error. Sin will be repeated because of this attraction. | Fear can become so acute that the sin is denied the acting out, but |
| Tx:19.25 | an avenger with a mind unlike your own could stamp it out through | fear. |
| Tx:19.26 | The ego does not think it possible that love, not | fear, is really called upon by sin and always answers. For the ego |
| Tx:19.26 | called upon by sin and always answers. For the ego brings sin to | fear, demanding punishment. Yet punishment is but another form of |
| Tx:19.30 | change perception is thus kept impotent, held to the body by the | fear of changed perception which its teacher, who is one with it, |
| Tx:19.43 | have you become. Peace could no more depart from you than from God. | Fear not this little obstacle. It cannot contain the Will of God. |
| Tx:19.49 | The attraction of guilt produces | fear of love, for love would never look on guilt at all. It is the |
| Tx:19.49 | it would unite in holy union and completion. As love must look past | fear, so must fear see love not. For love contains the end of guilt |
| Tx:19.49 | in holy union and completion. As love must look past fear, so must | fear see love not. For love contains the end of guilt as surely as |
| Tx:19.49 | fear see love not. For love contains the end of guilt as surely as | fear depends on it. [Love is attracted only to love.] Overlooking |
| Tx:19.49 | is attracted only to love.] Overlooking guilt completely, it sees no | fear. Being wholly without attack, it could not be afraid. Fear is |
| Tx:19.49 | sees no fear. Being wholly without attack, it could not be afraid. | Fear is attracted to what love sees not, and each believes that what |
| Tx:19.49 | and each believes that what the other looks upon does not exist. | Fear looks on guilt with just the same devotion that love looks on |
| Tx:19.50 | and return with messages of love and gentleness. The messengers of | fear are harshly ordered to seek out guilt and cherish every scrap of |
| Tx:19.50 | asking for messages of different things in different languages. What | fear would feed upon, love overlooks. What fear demands, love cannot |
| Tx:19.50 | different languages. What fear would feed upon, love overlooks. What | fear demands, love cannot even see. |
| Tx:19.51 | The fierce attraction which guilt holds for | fear is wholly absent from love's gentle perception. What love would |
| Tx:19.51 | gentle perception. What love would look upon is meaningless to | fear and quite invisible. Relationships in this world are the result |
| Tx:19.51 | and they tremble when their master calls upon them to serve him. For | fear is merciless even to its friends. Its messengers steal guiltily |
| Tx:19.52 | their savage pangs of hunger. For they are frantic with the pain of | fear and would avert the punishment of him who sends them forth by |
| Tx:19.53 | you love's messengers to send instead of those you trained through | fear. They are as eager to return to you what they hold dear as are |
| Tx:19.54 | Holy Spirit gives you, wanting no messages but theirs, you will see | fear no more. The world will be transformed before your sight, |
| Tx:19.54 | of all guilt and softly brushed with beauty. The world contains no | fear which you laid not upon it. And none you cannot ask love's |
| Tx:19.54 | what love sees. They have been given to replace the hungry dogs of | fear you sent instead. And they go forth to signify the end of fear. |
| Tx:19.54 | of fear you sent instead. And they go forth to signify the end of | fear. |
| Tx:19.61 | of Atonement as murder. Here is the source of the idea that love is | fear. The Holy Spirit's messengers are sent far beyond the body, |
| Tx:19.62 | It is only the messengers of | fear that see the body, for they look for what can suffer. Is it a |
| Tx:19.62 | pleasure; it has no hope of pleasure. But neither can it bring you | fear of pain. Pain is the only “sacrifice” the Holy Spirit asks, and |
| Tx:19.63 | will and its accomplishment? You want communion, not the feast of | fear. You want salvation, not the pain of guilt. And you want your |
| Tx:19.71 | with the body, which is the invitation to pain. For it invites | fear to enter and become your purpose. The attraction of guilt must |
| Tx:19.71 | purpose. The attraction of guilt must enter with it, and whatever | fear directs the body to do is therefore painful. It will share the |
| Tx:19.77 | across. No one can die unless he chooses death. What seems to be the | fear of death is really its attraction. Guilt, too, is feared and |
| Tx:19.84 | Those who | fear death see not how often and how loudly they call to it and bid |
| Tx:19.86 | The | fear of death will go as its appeal is yielded to love's real |
| Tx:19.87 | can assail the wholly innocent? What can attack the guiltless? What | fear can enter and disturb the peace of sinlessness? What has been |
| Tx:19.88 | When anything seems to you to be a source of | fear, when any situation strikes you with terror and makes your body |
| Tx:19.88 | you with terror and makes your body tremble and the cold sweat of | fear comes over it, remember it is always for one reason—the ego |
| Tx:19.88 | is always for one reason—the ego has perceived it as a symbol of | fear, a sign of sin and death. Remember then that neither sign nor |
| Tx:19.90 | What would you see without the | fear of death? What would you feel and think if death held no |
| Tx:19.91 | as streams of blood, fades in the blazing light beyond it when the | fear of death is gone. |
| Tx:19.92 | God seems quite forgotten; the cleavage of your Self from you—the | fear of God, the final step in your dissociation. |
| Tx:19.93 | in death would seem to “save” you. For if this is gone, what can you | fear but life? It is the attraction of death that makes life seem to |
| Tx:19.93 | in your secret alliance with them, you have agreed never to let the | fear of God be lifted so you could look upon the face of Christ and |
| Tx:19.94 | that peace must flow across is surmounted in just the same way; the | fear that raised it yields to the love beneath, and so the fear is |
| Tx:19.94 | way; the fear that raised it yields to the love beneath, and so the | fear is gone. And so it is with this. The desire to get rid of peace |
| Tx:19.94 | by the power of the attraction of what lies beyond. Your wanting | fear seemed to be holding them in place. Yet when you heard the voice |
| Tx:19.95 | delicate appeal of guilt, the “holy” waxen image of death, and the | fear of vengeance of the ego you swore in blood not to desert, all |
| Tx:19.96 | this. No mad desire, no trivial impulse to forget again, no stab of | fear, nor the cold sweat of seeming death can stand against your |
| Tx:19.97 | you raise your eyes, you will be ready to look on terror with no | fear at all. But first lift up your eyes and look upon each other in |
| Tx:19.98 | No one can look upon the | fear of God unterrified unless he has accepted the Atonement and |
| Tx:19.100 | To look upon the | fear of God does need some preparation. Only the sane can look on |
| Tx:19.100 | insanity and raving madness with pity and compassion but not with | fear. For only if they share in it does it seem fearful, and you do |
| Tx:19.100 | you still stand unforgiving. You are afraid of God because you | fear each other. Those you do not forgive you fear. And no one |
| Tx:19.100 | of God because you fear each other. Those you do not forgive you | fear. And no one reaches love with fear beside him. |
| Tx:19.100 | Those you do not forgive you fear. And no one reaches love with | fear beside him. |
| Tx:19.101 | it. And all the pity and forgiveness that would heal it gives way to | fear. Brothers, you need forgiveness of each other, for you will |
| Tx:20.2 | not the crown of thorns; the gift of love and not the “gift” of | fear. You stand beside each other, thorns in one hand and lilies in |
| Tx:20.11 | you to see no thorns, no strangers, and no obstacles to peace. The | fear of God is nothing to you now. Who is afraid to look upon |
| Tx:20.12 | and freed from all the terror that kept it hidden. There is no | fear in love. The song of Easter is the glad refrain the Son of God |
| Tx:20.12 | of God was never crucified. Let us lift up our eyes together, not in | fear, but faith. And there will be no fear in us, for in our vision |
| Tx:20.12 | up our eyes together, not in fear, but faith. And there will be no | fear in us, for in our vision will be no illusions—only a pathway |
| Tx:20.13 | looks upon the lilies and brings you joy. We go beyond the veil of | fear, lighting each other's way. The holiness that leads us is within |
| Tx:20.14 | untouched by guilt and perfectly protected from the cold chill of | fear and withering blight of sin alike. Your gift has saved him from |
| Tx:20.15 | the hands that gave it to each other shall both of you be led past | fear to love. |
| Tx:20.19 | how you see yourself. A murderer is frightened, and those who kill | fear death. All these are but the fearful thoughts of those who would |
| Tx:20.26 | is Heaven but union, direct and perfect, and without the veil of | fear upon it? Here are we one, looking with perfect gentleness upon |
| Tx:20.27 | then, this faith with me and know that it is justified. There is no | fear in perfect love because it knows no sin and it must look on |
| Tx:20.27 | on others as on itself. Looking with charity within, what can it | fear without? The innocent see safety, and the pure in heart see God |
| Tx:20.27 | promise of your immortality. See him as sinless, and there can be no | fear in you. |
| Tx:20.33 | which sin can enter not, and where the Son of God can enter without | fear, and where he rests a while to forget imprisonment and to |
| Tx:20.38 | Each herald of eternity sings of the end of sin and | fear. Each speaks in time of what is far beyond it. Two voices raised |
| Tx:20.39 | is inestimable clearly cannot be evaluated. Do you recognize the | fear that rises from the meaningless attempt to judge what lies so |
| Tx:20.45 | made is partial, self-centered, broken into fragments, and full of | fear. The one created by his Father is wholly self-encompassing and |
| Tx:20.50 | here kept “safe” from Him. But what you do not realize is what you | fear within your brother and would not see in him is what makes God |
| Tx:20.51 | and overlook the body, as it will surely do, and they retreat in | fear, feeling the seeming firm foundation of their temple begin to |
| Tx:20.51 | to shake and loosen. Brothers, you tremble with them. Yet what you | fear is but the herald of escape. This place of darkness is not your |
| Tx:20.57 | like unto each other. Idolatry is past and meaningless. Perhaps you | fear each other a little yet; perhaps a shadow of the fear of God |
| Tx:20.57 | Perhaps you fear each other a little yet; perhaps a shadow of the | fear of God remains with you. Yet what is that to those who have been |

| Tx:21.35 | and whom you try to limit to the body you hate because you | fear. In your refusal to forgive him, you would condemn him to the |
| Tx:21.35 | holiness would set your brother free, removing hatred by removing | fear, not as a symptom, but at its source. |
| Tx:21.36 | Those who would free their brothers from the body can have no | fear. They have renounced the means for sin by choosing to let all |
| Tx:21.41 | the sin you think is there. This you would not be fearful to admit. | Fear in association with sin the ego deems quite appropriate and |
| Tx:21.41 | the ego deems quite appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no | fear to let you feel ashamed. It doubts not your belief and faith in |
| Tx:21.41 | that it be there to see. This merely seems to be the source of | fear. |
| Tx:21.42 | believe, and so you do not look. Yet this is not the ego's hidden | fear, nor yours who serve it. Loudly indeed the ego claims it is— |
| Tx:21.42 | frantic proclamation, the ego is not certain it is so. Beneath your | fear to look within because of sin is yet another fear and one which |
| Tx:21.42 | so. Beneath your fear to look within because of sin is yet another | fear and one which makes the ego tremble. |
| Tx:21.66 | are joined is your salvation—the gift of Heaven, not the gift of | fear. Does Heaven seem to be a burden to you? In madness, yes. And |
| Tx:22.5 | uneasiness, your sense of being disconnected, and your haunting | fear of lack of meaning in yourself arise? It is as though you |
| Tx:22.8 | that need be hidden as a sin. But a mistake indeed! Let not your | fear of sin protect it from correction, for the attraction of guilt |
| Tx:22.8 | sin protect it from correction, for the attraction of guilt is only | fear. Here is the one emotion that you made, whatever it may seem to |
| Tx:22.14 | that calls on truth, for to deny illusions is to recognize that | fear is meaningless. Into the holy home, where fear is powerless, |
| Tx:22.14 | is to recognize that fear is meaningless. Into the holy home, where | fear is powerless, love enters thankfully, grateful that it is one |
| Tx:22.18 | sure indeed that any seeming happiness that does not last is really | fear. Joy does not turn to sorrow, for the eternal cannot change. But |
| Tx:22.25 | but look on it with the decision that it must be healed and not with | fear. Nothing you made has any power over you unless you still would |
| Tx:22.46 | you from the truth? And what would you be saved from but what you | fear? Belief in sin needs great defense and at enormous cost. All |
| Tx:22.48 | How weak is | fear—how little and how meaningless! How insignificant before the |
| Tx:22.55 | you bring shines now on you. The means of sinlessness can know no | fear because they carry only love with them. |
| Tx:22.60 | about, for here lies buried the heavy anchor that seems to keep the | fear of God in place, unmovable and solid as a rock. While this |
| Tx:22.61 | are separate. And you must think that they are separate because of | fear. For it seems safer to attack another or yourself than to attack |
| Tx:22.64 | him. What can this mean except your minds are one? Look not with | fear upon this happy fact and think not that it lays a heavy burden |
| Tx:22.65 | And in Him is all creation joined. Would you regret you cannot | fear alone when your relationship can also teach the power of love is |
| Tx:22.65 | can also teach the power of love is there, which makes all | fear impossible? Do not attempt to keep a little of the ego with this |
| Tx:23.1 | is strength, and nothing else is strong. The sinless cannot | fear, for sin of any kind is weakness. The show of strength attack |
| Tx:23.2 | think that you succeeded and attack again. It is as certain you will | fear what you attack as it is sure that you will love what you |
| Tx:23.2 | love shows him. For love walks with him there, protecting him from | fear. And he will see only the sinless, who can not attack. |
| Tx:23.3 | Walk you in glory with your head held high, and | fear no evil. The innocent are safe because they share their |
| Tx:23.3 | harmful now stands shining in their innocence, released from sin and | fear, and happily returned to love. They share the strength of love |
| Tx:23.8 | with this belief, but never will it be more than madness. And | fear will reign in madness and will seem to have replaced love there. |
| Tx:23.14 | with anything but love. Conflict is fearful, for it is the birth of | fear. Yet what is born of nothing cannot win reality through battle. |
| Tx:23.18 | looking on itself, extends itself. War is the condition in which | fear is born and grows and seeks to dominate. Peace is the state |
| Tx:23.23 | not to join. One becomes weak, the other strong by his defeat. And | fear of God and of each other now appears as sensible, made real by |
| Tx:23.25 | See how the | fear of God is reinforced by this third principle. Now it becomes |
| Tx:23.33 | perceived as real. Their goal of madness must be seen as sanity. And | fear, with ashen lips and sightless eyes, blinded and terrible to |
| Tx:23.33 | its substitute, the savior from salvation. How lovely do the laws of | fear make death appear! Give thanks unto the hero on love's throne, |
| Tx:23.33 | thanks unto the hero on love's throne, who saved the Son of God for | fear and death! |
| Tx:23.38 | witnessing or their results. Certain it is illusions will bring | fear because of the beliefs that they imply, not for their form. And |
| Tx:23.41 | what form of murder serves to cover the massive guilt and frantic | fear of punishment the murderer must feel? He may deny he is a |
| Tx:23.46 | in cowering hope because the guns are stilled an instant and the | fear that haunts the place of death is not apparent, that it will not |
| Tx:23.47 | The | fear of God is fear of life and not of death. Yet He remains the only |
| Tx:23.47 | The fear of God is | fear of life and not of death. Yet He remains the only place of |
| Tx:23.47 | the form it takes conceals the same intent. And it is this you | fear and not the form. What is not love is murder. What is not loving |
| Tx:24.10 | The | fear of God and of each other comes from each unrecognized belief in |
| Tx:24.20 | —too far to falter now. Just one step more and every vestige of the | fear of God will melt away in love. Your brother's specialness and |
| Tx:24.21 | not given to His Son but kept for Him alone. And it is this you | fear, for if He is not special, then He willed His Son be like Him, |
| Tx:24.45 | and blessing all the way. His love for God replaces all the | fear you thought you saw within yourself. His holiness shows you |
| Tx:24.49 | in the darkness of the night. He is your savior from the dreams of | fear. He is the healing of your sense of sacrifice and fear that what |
| Tx:24.49 | the dreams of fear. He is the healing of your sense of sacrifice and | fear that what you have will scatter with the wind and turn to dust. |
| Tx:24.54 | that hides the face of Christ from him, and you as well. And let the | fear of God no longer hold the vision you were meant to see from you. |
| Tx:25.12 | Is it not evident that what the body's eyes perceive fills you with | fear? Perhaps you think you find a hope of satisfaction there. |
| Tx:25.13 | world you see? In no respect at any time or place has anything but | fear and guilt been your reward. How long is needed for you to |
| Tx:25.43 | of Him to the beholder. He can see no evil, nothing in the world to | fear, and no one who is different from himself. And as he loves them, |
| Tx:25.68 | vengeance that their own belief in justice must entail. And so they | fear the Holy Spirit and perceive the “wrath” of God in Him. [They |
| Tx:25.68 | is hell and are afraid of love. And deep suspicion and the chill of | fear comes over them when they are told that they have never sinned. |
| Tx:25.77 | what justice must accord the Son of God. Let love decide and never | fear that you in your unfairness will deprive yourself of what God's |
| Tx:25.79 | are willing it be given you. God's justice warrants gratitude, not | fear. Nothing you give is lost to you or anyone, but cherished and |
| Tx:26.27 | face of Christ and not recall His Father as He really is? Who could | fear love and stand upon the ground where sin has left a place for |
| Tx:26.58 | he has sought to find. And he could only be afraid of it. Is | fear a treasure? Can uncertainty be what you want? Or is it a mistake |
| Tx:26.70 | you. In this form is the error still obscured that is the source of | fear. Salvation would wipe out the space you see between you still |
| Tx:26.70 | you still and let you instantly become as one. And it is here you | fear the loss would lie. Do not project this fear to time, for time |
| Tx:26.70 | one. And it is here you fear the loss would lie. Do not project this | fear to time, for time is not the enemy that you perceive. Time is as |
| Tx:26.71 | it be overlooked except within the present. Future loss is not your | fear. But present joining is your dread. Who can feel desolation |
| Tx:26.71 | cause as yet has no effects. And therefore must it be that if you | fear, there is a present cause. And it is this that needs correction, |
| Tx:26.72 | yet no cause. Who can predict effects without a cause? And who could | fear effects unless he thought they had been caused and judged |
| Tx:26.72 | had been caused and judged disastrous now? Belief in sin arouses | fear and, like its cause, is looking forward, looking back but |
| Tx:26.72 | in present grace, within the only interval of time which sin and | fear have overlooked but which is all there is to time. The working |
| Tx:26.73 | They can be looked at now. Why wait till they unfold in time and | fear they may not come, although already there? You have been told |
| Tx:27.1 | unity of what can never join? Walk you the gentle way, and you will | fear no evil and no shadows in the night. But place no terror symbols |
| Tx:27.6 | attack can ever touch him with the poisoned and relentless sting of | fear. Attest his innocence and not his guilt. Your healing is his |
| Tx:27.10 | life, but neither is it dead. It stands apart from all experience of | fear or love. For now it witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being |
| Tx:27.33 | Yet in the learning interval it has a use which now you | fear, but yet will love. |
| Tx:27.35 | Its own. There is no choice of function anywhere. The choice you | fear to lose you never had. Yet only this appears to interfere with |
| Tx:27.45 | you. The only thing that is required for a healing is a lack of | fear. The fearful are not healed and cannot heal. This does not mean |
| Tx:27.47 | the dying bring reproach, and suffering whispers, “What is there to | fear?” Consider well its question. It is asked of you on your behalf. |
| Tx:27.51 | with laws which have been properly perceived but never violated. | Fear you not the way that you perceive them. You are wrong, but there |
| Tx:27.58 | brings the miracle perceived them all as one and called by name of | fear. As fear is witness unto death, so is the miracle the witness |
| Tx:27.58 | the miracle perceived them all as one and called by name of fear. As | fear is witness unto death, so is the miracle the witness unto life. |
| Tx:27.72 | little gap you do not even see, the birthplace of illusions and of | fear, the time of terror and of ancient hate, the instant of |
| Tx:27.73 | waken to reality without the sweat of terror and a scream of mortal | fear unless a gentler dream preceded his awaking and allowed his |
| Tx:27.73 | preceded his awaking and allowed his calmer mind to welcome, not to | fear, the Voice that calls with love to waken him. [A gentler dream, |
| Tx:27.73 | he waken gently and with joy. And gave him means to waken without | fear. Accept the dream He gave instead of yours. It is not difficult |
| Tx:27.74 | dreams to take the place of those you dreamed in terror and in | fear of death. He brings forgiving dreams in which the choice is not |
| Tx:27.82 | cause. And we will see the grounds for laughter, not a cause for | fear. Let us return the dream he gave away unto the dreamer who |
| Tx:28.10 | against His Will. What your remembering would witness to is but the | fear of God. He has not done the thing you fear. No more have you. |
| Tx:28.10 | witness to is but the fear of God. He has not done the thing you | fear. No more have you. And so your innocence has not been lost. You |
| Tx:28.13 | How instantly the memory of God arises in the mind that has no | fear to keep the memory away. Its own remembering has gone. There is |
| Tx:28.13 | the stillness, yet disturb it not. And what is now remembered is not | fear, but rather is the cause that fear was made to render |
| Tx:28.13 | And what is now remembered is not fear, but rather is the cause that | fear was made to render unremembered and undone. The stillness speaks |
| Tx:28.14 | past or future. Its effects are changelessly eternal, beyond | fear, and past the world of sin entirely. |
| Tx:28.15 | bridge, and it is He Who will transport His Son across it. Have no | fear that He will fail in what He wills. Nor that you be excluded |
| Tx:28.22 | No one is afraid of them when he perceives he made them up. The | fear was held in place because he did not see that he was author of |
| Tx:28.22 | offered him to show him that his wishes have been done. Thus does he | fear his own attack but sees it at another's hands. As victim, he is |
| Tx:28.24 | the call to wakening be heard, because it seems to be the call to | fear. |
| Tx:28.26 | The miracle returns the cause of | fear to you who made it. But it also shows that, having no effects, |
| Tx:28.28 | the dream. When you accept a miracle, you do not add your dream of | fear to one that is already being dreamed. Without support, the dream |
| Tx:28.31 | The end of dreaming is the end of | fear, and love was never in the world of dreams. The gap is little. |
| Tx:28.37 | of just one thing—that you are evil, for you share in dreams of | fear. |
| Tx:28.38 | mind you would unite, but never with the dream. It is the dream you | fear and not the mind. You see them as the same because you think |
| Tx:28.40 | him, merely by your claim on brotherhood and not on dreams of | fear. Let him acknowledge who he is by not supporting his illusions |
| Tx:28.40 | be released, and you are kept in bondage to his dream. And dreams of | fear will haunt the little gap, inhabited but by illusions which you |
| Tx:28.47 | from good and keeping evil in. God is the alternate to dreams of | fear. Who shares in them can never share in Him. But who withdraws |
| Tx:28.48 | makes them real. Unshared, they are perceived as meaningless. The | fear is gone from them because you did not give them your support. |
| Tx:28.48 | is gone from them because you did not give them your support. Where | fear has gone, there love must come because there are but these |
| Tx:28.53 | of sin that you will see within yourself when you have lost the | fear of recognizing love. |
| Tx:28.56 | The thing you hate and | fear and loathe and want, the body does not know. You send it forth |
| Tx:28.65 | the sense in seeking to be safe in what was made for danger and for | fear? Why burden it with further locks and chains and heavy anchors |
| Tx:29.2 | Here is the | fear of God most plainly seen. For love is treacherous to those who |
| Tx:29.2 | fear of God most plainly seen. For love is treacherous to those who | fear, since fear and hate can never be apart. No one who hates but is |
| Tx:29.2 | most plainly seen. For love is treacherous to those who fear, since | fear and hate can never be apart. No one who hates but is afraid of |
| Tx:29.3 | The | fear of God! The greatest obstacle that peace must flow across has |
| Tx:29.6 | take command of when to “love” and when to shrink more safely into | fear. It will be sick because you do not know what loving means. And |
| Tx:29.7 | It is not love that asks a sacrifice. But | fear demands the sacrifice of love, for in love's presence fear |
| Tx:29.7 | But fear demands the sacrifice of love, for in love's presence | fear cannot abide. For hate to be maintained love must be feared and |
| Tx:29.8 | variable goals you hold and force the body to maintain. You do not | fear its weakness, but its lack of strength or weakness. Would you |
| Tx:29.8 | that the body is not real. And there are overtones of seeming | fear around the happy message, “God is love.” |
| Tx:29.9 | peace eternal. Nothing more than that, and nothing less. Without the | fear of God, what could induce you to abandon Him? What toys or |
| Tx:29.12 | sin and pain. For pain and sin are one illusion, as are hate and | fear, attack and guilt but one. Where they are causeless, their |
| Tx:29.26 | you think you like would hold you back as much as those in which the | fear is seen. For every dream is but a dream of fear, no matter what |
| Tx:29.26 | those in which the fear is seen. For every dream is but a dream of | fear, no matter what the form it seems to take. The fear is seen |
| Tx:29.26 | but a dream of fear, no matter what the form it seems to take. The | fear is seen within, without, or both. Or it can be disguised in |
| Tx:29.26 | in pleasant form. But never is it absent from the dream, for | fear is the material of dreams from which they all are made. Their |
| Tx:29.26 | it allowed you still to be afraid because you did not recognize the | fear. You would not then be willing to awake, for which the miracle |
| Tx:29.27 | or assault must be the theme of every dream, for they are made of | fear. The thin disguise of pleasure and of joy in which they may be |
| Tx:29.27 | in which they may be wrapped but slightly veils the heavy lump of | fear which is their core. And it is this the miracle perceives, and |
| Tx:29.29 | of this. The core of dreams the Holy Spirit gives is never one of | fear. The coverings may not appear to change, but what they mean has |
| Tx:29.37 | Such is the core of | fear in every dream that has been kept apart from use by Him Who sees |
| Tx:29.42 | the world whose purpose is forgiveness of God's Son! How free from | fear, how filled with blessing and with happiness! And what a joyous |
| Tx:29.46 | outside yourself. The search implies you are not whole within and | fear to look upon your devastation and prefer to seek outside |
| Tx:29.50 | minds are altars unto God, and where He is, no idols can abide. The | fear of God is but the fear of loss of idols. It is not the fear of |
| Tx:29.50 | God, and where He is, no idols can abide. The fear of God is but the | fear of loss of idols. It is not the fear of loss of your reality. |
| Tx:29.50 | The fear of God is but the fear of loss of idols. It is not the | fear of loss of your reality. But you have made of your reality an |
| Tx:29.55 | is not a thing to make you tremble and to quail in | fear. Christ's enemy is nowhere. He can take no form in which he ever |
| Tx:29.69 | Whenever you feel | fear in any form—and you are fearful if you do not feel a deep |
| Tx:29.69 | completely all your sense of doom. Your self-betrayal must result in | fear, for fear is judgment, leading surely to the frantic search for |
| Tx:29.69 | all your sense of doom. Your self-betrayal must result in fear, for | fear is judgment, leading surely to the frantic search for idols and |
| Tx:29.70 | the dream. And so they bring the dreamer full release from dreams of | fear. He does not fear his judgment, for he has judged no one, nor |
| Tx:29.70 | they bring the dreamer full release from dreams of fear. He does not | fear his judgment, for he has judged no one, nor has sought to be |
| Tx:30.1 | you from dreams of judgment to forgiving dreams and out of pain and | fear. They are not new to you, but they are more ideas than rules of |
| Tx:30.5 | then another answer cannot but produce confusion and uncertainty and | fear. |
| Tx:30.6 | hear may not resolve the problem as you saw it first. This leads to | fear because it contradicts what you perceive, and so you feel |
| Tx:30.9 | practiced well, will serve to let you be directed without | fear, for opposition will not first arise and then become a problem |
| Tx:30.14 | despite your opposition. For you have already gotten angry, and your | fear of being answered in a different way from what your version of |
| Tx:30.28 | practice in the rules which will protect you from the ravages of | fear. When this has been achieved, the sorry dream of judgment has |
| Tx:30.35 | love. For thus was hatred born into the world, and thus the rule of | fear established there. Now hear God speak to you through Him Who is |
| Tx:30.35 | reminding you that it is not your will to hate and be a prisoner to | fear, a slave to death, a little creature with a little life. Your |
| Tx:30.47 | of birth and death that here are dreamed, the myriad of forms that | fear can take; quite undisturbed, the Thought God holds of you |
| Tx:30.53 | not on them in any form. They but obscure reality, and they bring | fear because they hide the truth. Do not attack what you have made to |
| Tx:30.56 | And even in illusions it but asks forgiveness be the substitute for | fear. Such is the only rule for happy dreams. The gap is emptied of |
| Tx:30.56 | is the only rule for happy dreams. The gap is emptied of the toys of | fear, and then its unreality is plain. Dreams are for nothing. And |
| Tx:30.57 | in which the only purpose of the world is seen to be forgiveness. | Fear is not its goal, and the escape from guilt becomes its aim. The |
| Tx:30.57 | are made of anyone or anything to twist and fit into the dream of | fear. Instead, there is a wish to understand all things created as |
| Tx:30.59 | made perfect in himself. He has no wish for anything but this. And | fear has dropped away because he is united in his purpose with |
| Tx:30.60 | real world has a purpose still beneath creation and eternity. But | fear is gone because its purpose is forgiveness, not idolatry. And so |
| Tx:30.63 | When brothers join in purpose in the world of | fear, they stand already at the edge of the real world. Perhaps they |
| Tx:30.64 | and easy is the step across the narrow boundaries of the world of | fear when you have recognized Whose hand you hold! Within your hand |
| Tx:30.64 | is everything you need to walk with perfect confidence away from | fear forever and to go straight on and quickly reach the gate of |
| Tx:30.65 | hate is passing from the world. And with it goes all hatred and all | fear. Look back no longer, for what lies ahead is all you ever wanted |
| Tx:30.68 | confidence with happy hearts that beat in hope and do not pound in | fear. |
| Tx:30.70 | is never justified. Attack has no foundation. It is here escape from | fear begins and will be made complete. Here is the real world given |
| Tx:30.72 | that lets the real world rise to take the place of dreams of terror. | Fear cannot arise unless attack is justified, and if it had a real |
| Tx:30.73 | is just, it seems impossible His pardon could be real. Thus is the | fear of God the sure result of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who |
| Tx:30.73 | pardon as unmerited. No one who sees himself as guilty can avoid the | fear of God. But he is saved from this dilemma if he can forgive. The |
| Tx:30.84 | constant flux and make allowance for stability of meaning anywhere. | Fear is a judgment never justified. Its presence has no meaning but |
| Tx:30.84 | script and are afraid accordingly. But not because the thing you | fear has fearful meaning in itself. |
| Tx:30.88 | with what you really are. This is a state so seemingly unsafe that | fear must rise. Do not continue thus, my brothers. We have one |
| Tx:30.93 | that change and offer them to you to see in happy form, devoid of | fear. It will be given you to look upon your brother thus. But not |
| Tx:30.94 | is not free if you would have him be but what he is. Why should you | fear to see the Christ in him? You but behold your Self in what you |
| Tx:31.8 | lesson that God's Son is guiltless is a world in which there is no | fear and everything is lit with hope and sparkles with a gentle |
| Tx:31.9 | love. But only if His Son is innocent can He be Love. For God were | fear indeed if he whom He created innocent could be a slave to guilt. |
| Tx:31.10 | The | fear of God results as surely from the lesson that His Son is guilty |
| Tx:31.10 | be remembered when he learns his innocence. For hate must father | fear and look upon its father as itself. How wrong are you who fail |
| Tx:31.30 | —a place where nothing can find mercy or survive the ravages of | fear except in murder and in death. For here are you made sin, and |
| Tx:31.47 | was made to teach. It is a lesson in a terrible displacement and a | fear so devastating that the face which smiles above it must forever |
| Tx:31.49 | from feverish imaginations, hot with hatred and distortions born of | fear. What is a concept but a thought to which its maker gives a |
| Tx:31.58 | in many forms. And each will seem to be accusing you. Yet have no | fear it will not be undone. |
| Tx:31.74 | imaginings that come from guilty thoughts and concepts born of | fear. And what you see is hell, for fear is hell. All that is given |
| Tx:31.74 | thoughts and concepts born of fear. And what you see is hell, for | fear is hell. All that is given you is for release—the sight, the |
| Tx:31.76 | The veil across the face of Christ, the | fear of God and of salvation, and the love of guilt and death, they |
| Tx:31.81 | dreams and no remaining hope except to die and end the dream of | fear. This is temptation, nothing more than this. Can this be |
| Tx:31.91 | God and that can never fail. And thus are miracles as natural as | fear and agony appeared to be before the choice for holiness was |
| Tx:31.93 | everyone who wanders in the world uncertain, lonely, and in constant | fear. For it is given you to join with him, and through the Christ in |
| W1:5.1 | in whatever term seems accurate to you. The upset may seem to be | fear, worry, depression, anxiety, anger, hatred, jealousy, or any |
| W1:6.1 | ones. Again, it is necessary to name both the form of upset (anger, | fear, worry, depression, and so on) and the perceived source very |
| W1:13.3 | that you learn to recognize the meaningless and accept it without | fear. If you are fearful, it is certain that you will endow the world |
| W1:13.7 | A meaningless world engenders | fear because I think I am in competition with God. |
| W1:13.8 | preposterous. Note carefully, however, any signs of overt or covert | fear which it may arouse. This is our first attempt at stating an |
| W1:14.3 | and even quite painful. Some of them will lead you directly into | fear. You will not be left there. You will go far beyond it. Our |
| W1:14.6 | did not create cancer,” or heart attacks, or whatever may arouse | fear in you. |
| W1:16.3 | every thought you have brings either peace or war, either love or | fear. A neutral result is impossible because a neutral thought is |
| W1:16.3 | neutral thought is impossible. There is such a temptation to dismiss | fear thoughts as unimportant, trivial, and not worth bothering about |
| W1:20.2 | distinguish between joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, love and | fear. You are now learning how to tell them apart. And great indeed |
| W1:22.2 | —everything that you hate and would attack and kill. All that you | fear does not exist. |
| W1:23.1 | The idea for today contains the only way out of | fear that will ever succeed. Nothing else will work; everything else |
| W1:26.2 | Because your attack thoughts will be projected, you will | fear attack. And if you fear attack, you must believe that you are |
| W1:26.2 | attack thoughts will be projected, you will fear attack. And if you | fear attack, you must believe that you are not invulnerable. Attack |
| W1:26.6 | take the form of depression, worry, anger, a sense of imposition, | fear, foreboding, or preoccupation. Any problem as yet unsettled |
| W1:27.4 | If | fear of loss still persists, add further: |

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

| W1:97.1 | your mind from conflict to the quiet fields of peace. No chill of | fear can enter, for your mind has been absolved from madness, letting |
| W1:98.3 | The guiltless have no | fear, for they are safe and recognize their safety. They do not |

| W1:99.16 | for today which has the power to remove all forms of doubt and | fear forever from your mind. If you are tempted to believe them true, |
| W1:99.20 | Thus do you lay forgiveness on your mind and let all | fear be gently laid aside that Love may find Its rightful place in |
| W1:100.6 | much He loves His Son and wills no sorrow rises to abate his joy; no | fear besets him to disturb his peace. |
| W1:101.2 | evens the account they owe to God. They would escape Him in their | fear. And yet He will pursue, and they cannot escape. |
| W1:101.7 | Fear not the Will of God. But turn to it in confidence that it will | |

| W1:103.4 | God, being Love, is also happiness. To | fear Him is to be afraid of joy. |
| W1:103.5 | with this association, which corrects the false belief that God is | fear. It also emphasizes happiness belongs to you because of what He |

| W1:107.4 | Without illusions there could be no | fear, no doubt, and no attack. When truth has come, all pain is over, |
| W1:109.5 | have no cares and no concerns, no burdens, no anxiety, no pain, no | fear of future, and no past regrets. In timelessness you rest, while |
| W1:110.1 | nor changed the universe so that what God created was replaced by | fear and evil, misery and death. |
| W1:110.2 | If you remain as God created you, | fear has no meaning, evil is not real, and misery and death do not |
| W1:110.3 | cannot turn to sickness, nor can death be substitute for life or | fear for love. All this has not occurred if you remain as God created |
| W1:121.2 | The unforgiving mind is full of | fear and offers love no room to be itself, no place where it can |
| W1:122.2 | while you sleep and rests upon your eyelids so you see no dreams of | fear and evil, malice, and attack. And when you wake again, it offers |
| W1:130.2 | reality? And who can choose to see a world of which he is afraid? | Fear must make blind, for this its weapon is—that which you fear to |
| W1:130.2 | Fear must make blind, for this its weapon is—that which you | fear to see you cannot see. Love and perception thus go hand in hand, |
| W1:130.2 | to see you cannot see. Love and perception thus go hand in hand, but | fear obscures in darkness what is there. |
| W1:130.3 | What, then, can | fear project upon the world? What can be seen in darkness that is |
| W1:130.3 | What can be seen in darkness that is real? Truth is eclipsed by | fear, and what remains is but imagined. Yet what can be real in blind |
| W1:130.4 | Fear has made everything you think you see. All separation, all | |
| W1:134.12 | can remove the ponderous and useless armor made to chain his mind to | fear and misery. His step is light, and as he lifts his foot to |
| W1:135.4 | Defense is frightening. It stems from | fear, increasing fear as each defense is made. You think it offers |
| W1:135.4 | Defense is frightening. It stems from fear, increasing | fear as each defense is made. You think it offers safety. Yet it |
| W1:135.4 | each defense is made. You think it offers safety. Yet it speaks of | fear made real and terror justified. Is it not strange you do not |
| W1:135.6 | Yet it is not the body that can | fear, nor be a thing to fear. It has no needs but those which you |
| W1:135.6 | Yet it is not the body that can fear, nor be a thing to | fear. It has no needs but those which you assign to it. It needs no |
| W1:137.6 | solid and more stable than the mind. And love becomes a dream, while | fear remains the one reality that can be seen and justified and fully |
| W1:138.2 | understand. Truth cannot come where it could only be perceived with | fear, for this would be the error truth can be brought to illusions. |
| W1:138.10 | The conscious choice of Heaven is as sure as is the ending of the | fear of hell when it is raised from its protective shield of |
| W1:138.11 | made enormous, vengeful, pitiless with hate demands obscurity for | fear to be invested there. Now it is recognized as but a foolish, |
| W1:152.1 | except his choice elects this state for him. No one can grieve nor | fear nor think him sick unless these are the outcomes that he wants. |
| W1:152.2 | can loss be real? Can pain be part of peace, or grief of joy? Can | fear and sickness enter in a mind where love and perfect holiness |
| W1:153.4 | it has wrought. You are its slave. You know not what you do in | fear of it. You do not understand how much you have been made to |
| W1:153.7 | is weakness. It proclaims you have denied the Christ and come to | fear His Father's anger. What can save you now from your delusion of |
| W1:153.9 | or wish or dream in which attack has any meaning. Now we cannot | fear, for we have left all fearful thoughts behind. And in |
| W1:153.12 | fearful toys with joyous games which teach them that the game of | fear is gone. His game instructs in happiness because there is no |
| W1:153.12 | win, and in his winning is the gain to everyone ensured. The game of | fear is gladly laid aside when children come to see the benefits |
| W1:160.1 | Fear is a stranger to the ways of love. Identify with fear, and you | |
| W1:160.1 | Fear is a stranger to the ways of love. Identify with | fear, and you will be a stranger to yourself. And thus you are |
| W1:160.4 | Who is the stranger? Is it | fear or you that is unsuited to the home which God provided for His |
| W1:160.4 | you that is unsuited to the home which God provided for His Son? Is | fear His own, created in His likeness? Is it fear that love completes |
| W1:160.4 | for His Son? Is fear His own, created in His likeness? Is it | fear that love completes and is completed by? There is no home can |
| W1:160.4 | completes and is completed by? There is no home can shelter love and | fear. They cannot coexist. If you are real, then fear must be |
| W1:160.4 | shelter love and fear. They cannot coexist. If you are real, then | fear must be illusion. And if fear is real, then you do not exist at |

| W1:161.1 | to temptation which can never fail to welcome in the Christ where | fear and anger had prevailed before. Here is Atonement made complete, |

| W1:161.5 | stand for the meaningless. Love needs no symbols, being true. But | fear attaches to specifics, being false. |
| W1:161.6 | but mind directs the body to attack? What else could be the seat of | fear except what thinks of fear? |
| W1:161.6 | to attack? What else could be the seat of fear except what thinks of | fear? |
| W1:161.7 | for death as surely as God's Voice proclaims there is no death. | Fear is insatiable, consuming everything its eyes behold, seeing |
| W1:161.8 | fear's symbol. And he will attack because what he beholds is his own | fear external to himself, poised to attack and howling to unite with |
| W1:161.8 | to unite with him again. Mistake not the intensity of rage projected | fear must spawn. It shrieks in wrath and claws the air in frantic |
| W1:161.10 | for this, and he will give it to you. Ask him not to symbolize your | fear. Would you request that love destroy itself? Or would you have |
| W1:161.16 | Today's idea is your safe escape from anger and from | fear. Be sure you use it instantly, should you be tempted to attack a |
| W1:161.16 | tempted to attack a brother and perceive in him the symbol of your | fear. And you will see him suddenly transformed from enemy to savior, |
| W1:163.1 | takes on many forms, often unrecognized. It may appear as sadness, | fear, anxiety, or doubt; as anger, faithlessness, and lack of trust; |
| W1:163.2 | Embodiment of | fear, the host of sin, god of the guilty, and the lord of all |
| W1:165.7 | lies beyond our every doubt. His love remains beyond our every | fear. The thought of Him is still beyond all dreams and in our minds |
| W1:166.9 | Your ancient | fear has come upon you now, and justice has caught up with you at |
| W1:166.14 | theirs. If you are sick, you but withhold their healing. What you | fear but teaches them their fears are justified. Your hand becomes |
| W1:168.4 | in grace you see a light that covers all the world in love and watch | fear disappear from every face as hearts rise up and claim the light |
| W1:169.2 | is acceptance of the Love of God within a world of seeming hate and | fear. By grace alone the hate and fear are gone, for grace presents a |
| W1:169.2 | within a world of seeming hate and fear. By grace alone the hate and | fear are gone, for grace presents a state so opposite to everything |
| W1:169.2 | minds are lighted by the gift of grace cannot believe the world of | fear is real. |
| W1:170.1 | better, safer, more secure from dangerous invasion and from | fear. |
| W1:170.2 | How thoroughly insane is the idea that to defend from | fear is to attack! For here is fear begot and fed with blood, to make |
| W1:170.2 | is the idea that to defend from fear is to attack! For here is | fear begot and fed with blood, to make it grow and swell and rage. |
| W1:170.2 | and fed with blood, to make it grow and swell and rage. And thus is | fear protected, not escaped. Today we learn a lesson which can save |
| W1:170.4 | wholly irreconcilable. For love now has an “enemy,” an opposite; and | fear, the alien, now needs your defense against the threat of what |
| W1:170.6 | Next are the attributes of love bestowed upon its “enemy.” For | fear becomes your safety and protector of your peace, to which you |
| W1:170.6 | what belongs to it and it alone, love is endowed with attributes of | fear. For love would ask you lay down all defense as merely foolish. |
| W1:170.10 | Yet do not think that | fear is the escape from fear. Let us remember what the course has |
| W1:170.10 | Yet do not think that fear is the escape from | fear. Let us remember what the course has stressed about the |
| W1:170.10 | a solid block, impenetrable, fearful and beyond surmounting, is the | fear of God Himself. Here is the basic premise which enthrones the |
| W1:170.10 | Himself. Here is the basic premise which enthrones the thought of | fear as god. For fear is loved by those who worship it, and love |
| W1:170.10 | is the basic premise which enthrones the thought of fear as god. For | fear is loved by those who worship it, and love appears to be |
| W1:170.11 | come from? Love has not confused its attributes with those of | fear. Yet must the worshipers of fear perceive their own confusion in |
| W1:170.11 | its attributes with those of fear. Yet must the worshipers of | fear perceive their own confusion in fear's “enemy,” its cruelty as |
| W1:170.12 | this cruel god remain with you in still another form, and so the | fear of God returned with you. This time you leave it here. And you |
| W1:170.13 | to you at last. The Call of God is heard and answered. Now has | fear made way for love, as God Himself replaces cruelty. |
| W1:175.3 | [160] I am at home. | Fear is the stranger here. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:182.8 | stillness, silent and at peace, beyond all words, untouched by | fear and doubt, sublimely certain that you are at home. |
| W1:187.9 | upon your altar, with the ones you offer him beside them. Who could | fear to look upon such lovely holiness? The great illusion of the |
| W1:187.9 | fear to look upon such lovely holiness? The great illusion of the | fear of God diminishes to nothingness before the purity that you will |
| W1:187.10 | Now are we one in thought, for | fear has gone. And here, before the altar to one God, one Father, one |
| W1:189.2 | Who could feel | fear in such a world as this? It welcomes you, rejoices that you |
| W1:189.3 | from the world you see through darkened eyes of malice and of | fear that one belies the other. Only one can be perceived at all. The |
| W1:190.3 | in place of truth. It demonstrates God is denied, confused with | fear, perceived as mad, and seen as traitor to Himself. If God is |
| W1:190.3 | is real, there is no God. For vengeance is not part of love. And | fear, denying love and using pain to prove that God is dead, has |
| W1:190.7 | desires bring it evil dreams. Your thoughts of death envelop it in | fear, while in your kind forgiveness does it live. |
| W1:190.8 | not to be free. In pain is God denied the Son He loves. In pain does | fear appear to triumph over love and time replace eternity and |
| W1:190.9 | all things still at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and of | fear. Let no attack enter with you. Lay down the cruel sword of |
| W1:192.4 | symbols written there before. Forgiveness is the means by which the | fear of death is overcome because it holds no fierce attraction now, |
| W1:192.5 | lost the source of all attack, the core of anguish, and the seat of | fear? |
| W1:193.4 | which forgiveness enters, and returns the hate to love, so that the | fear is gone. And now guilt cannot enter, for its source has been |
| W1:193.9 | These are the words which end the dream of sin and rid the mind of | fear. These are the words by which salvation comes to all the world. |
| W1:194.7 | can cause him pain or bring experience of loss to him? What can he | fear? And what can he regard except with love? For he who has escaped |
| W1:194.7 | And what can he regard except with love? For he who has escaped all | fear of future pain has found his way to present peace and certainty |
| W1:195.8 | lay comparisons aside. What more remains as obstacles to peace? The | fear of God is now undone at last, and we forgive without comparing. |
| W1:196.5 | it seemed to be salvation. Yet it merely stood for the belief the | fear of God is real. And what is that but hell? Who could believe his |
| W1:196.5 | to destroy his life and blot him from the universe, without the | fear of hell upon his heart? |
| W1:196.6 | least, must be entirely impossible, how could there be escape? The | fear of God is real to anyone who thinks this thought is true. And he |
| W1:196.7 | all, its form must first be changed at least as much as will permit | fear of retaliation to abate and the responsibility returned to some |
| W1:196.7 | you cannot perceive that it is but your thoughts that bring you | fear and your deliverance depends on you. |
| W1:196.8 | it is impossible that you be hurt except by your own thoughts, the | fear of God must disappear. You do not now believe that fear is |
| W1:196.8 | the fear of God must disappear. You do not now believe that | fear is caused without. And God, Whom you had thought to banish, can |
| W1:196.9 | can but be you you crucify, you did not hurt the world and need not | fear its vengeance and pursuit. Nor need you hide in terror from the |
| W1:196.9 | vengeance and pursuit. Nor need you hide in terror from the deadly | fear of God projection hides behind. The thing you dread the most is |
| W1:196.10 | quite hopeless. When you realize once and for all that it is you you | fear, the mind perceives itself as split. And this had been concealed |
| W1:196.10 | from outside to within. It seemed to be an enemy outside you had to | fear. And thus a god outside yourself became your mortal enemy—the |
| W1:196.10 | thus a god outside yourself became your mortal enemy—the source of | fear. |
| W1:196.11 | in this instant is the time as well in which salvation comes. For | fear of God has disappeared. And you can call on Him to save you from |
| W1:196.11 | His Son. Pray that the instant may be soon—today. Step back from | fear and make advance to love. |
| W1:196.12 | instant and to go beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. When the | fear of God is gone, there are no obstacles that still remain between |
| W1:197.7 | And with the end of this belief is | fear forever over. Thank your Self for this, for He is grateful only |
| W1:199.2 | such a mind because it has been given to the Source of Love. And | fear can never enter in a mind that has attached itself to Love. It |
| W1:200.6 | appears to be a choice to make between success and failure, love and | fear? |
| W2:225.1 | and keeping it within its kindly light, inviolate—beloved, with | fear behind and only peace ahead. How still the way Your loving Son |
| W2:232.2 | This is as every day should be. Today practice the end of | fear. Have faith in Him Who is your Father. Trust all things to Him. |
| W2:240.1 | Fear is deception. It attests that you have seen yourself as you | |
| W2:240.1 | Let us not be deceived today. We are the Son of God. There is no | fear in us, for we are each a part of Love Itself. |
| W2:WIW.2 | The world was made as an attack on God. It symbolizes | fear. And what is fear except love's absence? Thus the world was |

| W2:244.1 | recollect his safety and Your Love, for they are one. How can he | fear or doubt or fail to know he cannot suffer, be endangered, or |
| W2:259.1 | punishment and suffering? And what but this could be the source of | fear, obscuring God's creation, giving love the attributes of fear |
| W2:259.1 | of fear, obscuring God's creation, giving love the attributes of | fear and of attack? |
| W2:WIB.3 | seems to picture happiness but can quite suddenly revert to | fear, where every dream is born. For only love creates in truth, and |
| W2:WIB.3 | dream is born. For only love creates in truth, and truth can never | fear. Made to be fearful, must the body serve the purpose given it. |
| W2:WIB.5 | you. Your safety lies in truth and not in lies. Love is your safety. | Fear does not exist. Identify with love, and you are safe. Identify |
| W2:265.1 | in the celestial gentleness with which creation shines. There is no | fear in it. Let no appearance of my “sins” obscure the light of |
| W2:272.2 | be chosen just as easily as hell and love will happily replace all | fear. |
| W2:273.2 | Father, Your peace is mine. What need have I to | fear that anything can rob me of what You would have me keep? I |
| W2:274.2 | Him Who is our Father. Give this day to Him and there will be no | fear today because the day is given unto Love. |
| W2:278.2 | thoughts about myself and my creation and have brought a dream of | fear into my mind. Today I would not dream. I choose the way to You |
| W2:278.2 | not dream. I choose the way to You instead of madness and instead of | fear. For truth is safe and only love is sure. |
| W2:WIHS.2 | For sights and sounds must be translated from the witnesses of | fear to those of love. And when this is entirely accomplished, |
| W2:282.2 | the truth be changed by merely giving it another name? The name of | fear is simply a mistake. Let me not be afraid of truth today. |
| W2:287.1 | keep that can compare with my Identity? And would I rather live with | fear than love? |
| W2:WIRW.1 | is opposite to what you made. Your world is seen through eyes of | fear and brings the witnesses of terror to your mind. The real world |
| W2:WIRW.1 | so they see a world where terror is impossible and witnesses to | fear cannot be found. |
| W2:WIRW.2 | thought reflected in your world, a sure correction for the sights of | fear and sounds of battle which your world contains. The real world |
| W2:293.1 | All | fear is past because its source is gone and all its thoughts gone |
| W2:293.2 | the hymns of gratitude the world is singing underneath the sounds of | fear. There is a real world which the present holds safe from all |
| W2:294.1 | die? And yet a neutral thing does not see death, for thoughts of | fear are not invested there, nor is a mockery of love bestowed upon |
| W2:295.1 | the world is saved with me. For all of us must be redeemed together. | Fear appears in many different forms, but love is one. |
| W2:298.1 | My gratitude permits my love to be accepted without | fear. And thus am I restored to my reality at last. All that intruded |
| W2:298.1 | sure that in that alone I will be saved, sure that I go through | fear to meet my Love. |
| W2:302.1 | us to look upon. Christ's vision changes darkness into light, for | fear must disappear when love has come. Let me forgive Your holy |
| W2:305.1 | it and gently carries it to truth, no more to be the home of | fear. For Love has come and healed the world by giving it Christ's |
| W2:306.1 | to me? Today I can forget the world I made. Today I can go past all | fear and be restored to love and holiness and peace. Today I am |
| W2:309.1 | look within is but to find my will as God created it and as it is. I | fear to look within because I think I made another will which is not |
| W2:310.2 | We are restored to peace and holiness. There is no room in us for | fear today, for we have welcomed love into our hearts. |
| W2:WILJ.3 | freeing you from them and all effects they ever seemed to have. To | fear God's saving grace is but to fear complete release from |
| W2:WILJ.3 | they ever seemed to have. To fear God's saving grace is but to | fear complete release from suffering, return to peace, security and |
| W2:313.1 | there is a vision which beholds all things as sinless, so that | fear has gone and where it was is love invited in. And love will come |
| W2:314.1 | of the present. Past mistakes can cast no shadows on it, so that | fear has lost its idols and its images, and being formless, it has no |
| W2:322.2 | give has no reality. What loss can I anticipate except the loss of | fear and the return of Love into my mind? |
| W2:323.2 | has now returned to our awareness. And we are at peace again, for | fear has gone and only love remains. |
| W2:330.1 | be our Identity and thus escape forever from all things the dream of | fear appears to offer us. |
| W2:WIE.2 | The ego is insane. In | fear it stands beyond the Everywhere, apart from All, in separation |
| W2:WIE.3 | and of suffering when he lives in eternal joy? What can he know of | fear and punishment, of sin and guilt, of hatred and attack when all |
| W2:331.1 | that Love has left Itself? There is no will except the will of Love. | Fear is a dream and has no will that can conflict with Yours. |
| W2:332.2 | We would not bind the world again today. | Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has given us the means to |

| Tx:3.79 | You have not yet gone back far enough, and that is why you become so | fearful. As you approach the beginning, you feel the fear of the |
| Tx:4.7 | systems as they are, and learning means change. Change is always | fearful to the separated ones because they cannot conceive of it as a |
| Tx:4.14 | by God. As long as you dispute this, everything you do will be | fearful, particularly any situation which lends itself to the |
| Tx:4.15 | sane solution is not to try to change reality, which is indeed a | fearful attempt, but to see it as it is. You are part of reality, |
| Tx:4.17 | The word “inevitable” is | fearful to the ego but joyous to the Soul. God is inevitable, and you |
| Tx:4.33 | merely another way of describing how it originated. This is such a | fearful state that it can only turn to other egos and try to unite |

| Tx:5.46 | not fail to help you reinterpret everything that you perceive as | fearful and teach you that only what is loving is true. Truth is |
| Tx:5.59 | as the Holy Spirit has. The ego's purpose is fear because only the | fearful can be egotistic. The ego's logic is as impeccable as that of |
| Tx:5.61 | guilt and you will fear punishment. The ego is quite literally a | fearful thought. |
| Tx:5.74 | it even interprets Scripture as a witness for itself. The Bible is a | fearful thing to the ego because of its prejudiced judgment. |

| Tx:6.65 | pleasure, and for pride. The insanity of this perception makes it a | fearful one indeed. The Holy Spirit sees the body only as a means of |
| Tx:7.45 | does the idea of exceptions seem to be meaningful. Exceptions are | fearful, because they are made by fear. The “fearful healer” is a |
| Tx:7.56 | source which is totally inimical to its existence for its existence. | Fearful of perceiving the power of this source, it is forced to |
| Tx:7.78 | you believe that others are taking it from you. One must be | fearful if he believes that his brother is attacking him to tear the |
| Tx:7.102 | that an impossible choice is open to you and one which is both very | fearful and very desirable. Yet God wills. He does not wish. Your |
| Tx:7.103 | What else, then, can this decision mean except that you want to be | fearful? The Holy Spirit never asks for sacrifice, but the ego always |
| Tx:8.90 | fact that the Will of God, which is what you are, is perceived as | fearful to you demonstrates that you are afraid of what you are. It |
| Tx:8.91 | what you are and if you have already decided that what you are is | fearful, then it must follow that you will not learn this course. Yet |
| Tx:8.91 | If you do not know your reality, how would you know whether it is | fearful or not? |
| Tx:8.97 | it can only decide either that there is no God or that God's Will is | fearful. The former accounts for the atheist and the latter for the |

| Tx:8.99 | fear is totally meaningless. To deny what is can only seem to be | fearful. Fear cannot be real without a cause, and God is the only |
| Tx:8.103 | Attempts of any kind to deny what is are | fearful, and if they are strong, they will induce panic. Willing |
| Tx:8.104 | real. You cannot make the unreal, because the absence of reality is | fearful, and fear cannot be created. As long as you believe that fear |
| Tx:8.108 | happens that an individual asks for physical healing because he is | fearful of bodily harm. At the same time, however, if he were healed |

| Tx:9.68 | but only because the dissociation was an attack on truth. You are | fearful because you have forgotten. And you have replaced your |

| Tx:9.71 | on truth and truth is God, you will realize why this is always | fearful. If you further recognize that you are part of God, you will |
| Tx:9.81 | think they are your father because you are projecting onto them the | fearful fact that you made them to replace God. Yet when they seem to |
| Tx:9.83 | nothing. Yet fear is not due them either, for nothing cannot be | fearful. You have chosen to fear love because of its perfect |
| Tx:10.41 | in the belief that the ego has the power to do anything. The ego is | fearful to you because you believe this. Yet the truth is very simple: |
| Tx:12.5 | find him. Yet the wish has hidden him from you because it is very | fearful, and you are afraid to find him. You have handled this wish |
| Tx:12.67 | Yet the dreams of love lead unto knowledge. In them you see nothing | fearful, and because of this, they are the welcome that you offer |
| Tx:13.12 | Release from guilt is the ego's whole undoing. Make no one | fearful, for his guilt is yours, and by obeying the ego's harsh |
| Tx:13.20 | source, from which attention is diverted, must be true and must be | fearful, or you would not have displaced the guilt onto what you |
| Tx:13.20 | would not have displaced the guilt onto what you believed to be less | fearful. You are therefore willing with little opposition to look |
| Tx:14.16 | for light, of ignorance for understanding. Nothing you understand is | fearful. It is only in darkness and in ignorance that you perceive |
| Tx:14.17 | perfect openness in which nothing is hidden and therefore nothing is | fearful. Attack will always yield to love if it is brought to love, |
| Tx:14.18 | ignorance, look to them only for fear, for what they keep obscure is | fearful. But let them go, and what was fearful will be so no longer. |
| Tx:14.18 | for what they keep obscure is fearful. But let them go, and what was | fearful will be so no longer. Without protection of obscurity, only |
| Tx:14.23 | Him, and let His gentleness teach you that in the light they are not | fearful and cannot serve to guard the dark doors behind which nothing |
| Tx:15.98 | And that guilt is the price of love, which must be paid by fear. How | fearful, then, has God become to you, and how great a sacrifice do |
| Tx:15.99 | only of yourself. Yet the demand of sacrifice is so savage and so | fearful that you cannot accept it where it is. But the real price of |
| Tx:15.101 | from where it is not. Your brothers and your Father have become very | fearful to you. And you would bargain with them for a few special |
| Tx:15.104 | your invitation bids them be. What you excluded from yourself seems | fearful, for you endowed it with fear and tried to cast it out though |
| Tx:16.52 | as a triumph over God, would you want it? Let us not think of its | fearful nature nor of the guilt it must entail nor of the sadness and |
| Tx:16.53 | you grant unlimited power to what you think you have attacked? So | fearful has the truth become to you that unless it is weak and |
| Tx:16.56 | Salvation lies in the simple fact that illusions are not | fearful because they are not true. They but seem to be fearful to the |
| Tx:16.56 | are not fearful because they are not true. They but seem to be | fearful to the extent to which you fail to recognize them for what |
| Tx:16.67 | and despair and see it thus. What guilt has wrought is ugly, | fearful, and very dangerous. See no illusion of truth and beauty |
| Tx:17.2 | It is, then, only your wish to change reality that is | fearful, because by your wish you think you have accomplished what |
| Tx:17.40 | to each other. The dark picture brought to light is not perceived as | fearful, but the fact that it is just a picture is brought home at |
| Tx:18.5 | to emerge. What else could come of it? Its fragmented aspects are | fearful enough, as you begin to look at them. But nothing you have |
| Tx:18.17 | you prefer is terrifying. Your attempts to blot out reality are very | fearful, but this you are not willing to accept. And so you |
| Tx:18.17 | willing to accept. And so you substitute the fantasy that reality is | fearful, not what you would do to it. And thus is guilt made real. |
| Tx:18.26 | increases, for there is little doubt that what you think it means is | fearful. Yet what is that to us who travel surely and very swiftly |
| Tx:18.38 | from guilt has been to bring Atonement to it and make salvation | fearful. And it is only fear that you will add if you prepare |
| Tx:19.77 | fear of death is really its attraction. Guilt, too, is feared and | fearful. Yet it could have no hold at all except on those who are |
| Tx:19.100 | but not with fear. For only if they share in it does it seem | fearful, and you do share in it until you look upon each other with |
| Tx:19.101 | You do not know him, and your interpretation of him is very | fearful. And you attack him still, to keep what seems to be yourself |
| Tx:20.19 | is frightened, and those who kill fear death. All these are but the | fearful thoughts of those who would adjust themselves to a world made |
| Tx:20.19 | thoughts of those who would adjust themselves to a world made | fearful by their adjustments. And they look out in sorrow from what |
| Tx:20.20 | world is merciless, and were it outside you, you should indeed be | fearful. Yet it was you who made it merciless, and now if |
| Tx:20.50 | of the idolater and of love's condemnation. For here is love made | fearful and hope abandoned. Even the idols that are worshiped here |
| Tx:20.50 | within your brother and would not see in him is what makes God seem | fearful to you and kept unknown. |
| Tx:20.56 | salvation and not his doom. You who are learning this may still be | fearful, but you are not immobilized. The holy instant is of greater |
| Tx:20.76 | into happy dreams; your wild hallucinations that show you all the | fearful outcomes of imagined sin into the calm and reassuring sights |
| Tx:21.24 | fit the goal of madness. The goal of sin induces the perception of a | fearful world to justify its purpose. What you desire you will see. |
| Tx:21.41 | that you are sinful. Errors He will correct, but this makes no one | fearful. You are indeed afraid to look within and see the sin you |
| Tx:21.41 | within and see the sin you think is there. This you would not be | fearful to admit. Fear in association with sin the ego deems quite |
| Tx:21.64 | you choose he be is but your choice for you. Yet think not this is | fearful. That you are joined to him is but a fact, not an |
| Tx:21.64 | to him is but a fact, not an interpretation. How can a fact be | fearful unless it disagrees with what you hold more dear than truth? |
| Tx:21.71 | are the dark ones, silent and afraid, alone and not communicating, | fearful the power of the Son of God will strike them dead and raising |
| Tx:21.76 | first three questions but not yet the last. For this one still seems | fearful and unlike the others. Yet reason would assure you they are |
| Tx:22.13 | in a language the body does not speak. Nor could it be a | fearful sight or sound that drew them gently into one. Rather, in |
| Tx:22.62 | its Creator]. And thus it seems as if love could attack and become | fearful. |
| Tx:23.5 | the little and the weak about him? Who can walk trembling in a | fearful world and realize that Heaven's glory shines on him? |
| Tx:23.14 | on anything that God created with anything but love. Conflict is | fearful, for it is the birth of fear. Yet what is born of nothing |
| Tx:25.38 | you not be afraid with “enemies” like these? And must you not be | fearful of yourself? For you have hurt yourself and made your Self |
| Tx:26.37 | the past is gone and cannot be returned to you? And do you want that | fearful instant kept, when Heaven seemed to disappear and God was |
| Tx:26.72 | and now its cause must be if its effects already have been judged as | fearful. And in overlooking this, is it protected and kept separate |
| Tx:27.45 | The only thing that is required for a healing is a lack of fear. The | fearful are not healed and cannot heal. This does not mean the |
| Tx:27.47 | feared. But if you shrink from blessing will the world indeed seem | fearful, for you have withheld its peace and comfort, leaving it to |
| Tx:27.73 | world of dreams. No other cause it has, nor ever will. Nothing more | fearful than an idle dream has terrified God's Son and made him think |
| Tx:27.73 | lost his innocence, denied his Father, and made war upon himself. So | fearful is the dream, so seeming real, he could not waken to reality |
| Tx:28.13 | away. Its own remembering has gone. There is no past to keep its | fearful image in the way of glad awakening to present peace. The |
| Tx:28.38 | way of finding certainty right here and now. Refuse to be a part of | fearful dreams whatever form they take, for you will lose identity in |
| Tx:28.49 | will not want to know your own Identity because you think that it is | fearful. And you will deny your Self and walk upon an alien ground |
| Tx:29.2 | He fears to love and loves to hate, and so he thinks that love is | fearful—hate is love. This is the consequence the little gap must |
| Tx:29.3 | remains to block your path and make the way to light seem dark and | fearful, perilous and bleak. You had decided that your brother is |
| Tx:29.55 | its purpose is to separate your brother from yourself. A dark and | fearful purpose, yet a thought without the power to change one blade |
| Tx:29.69 | Whenever you feel fear in any form—and you are | fearful if you do not feel a deep content, a certainty of help, a |

| Tx:30.65 | not bring you pain? What moment of content has not been bought at | fearful price in coins of suffering? Joy has no cost. It is your |
| Tx:30.73 | right as much as his. Nor will you think that God intends for you a | fearful judgment which your brother does not merit. For it is the |
| Tx:30.84 | never justified. Its presence has no meaning but to show you wrote a | fearful script and are afraid accordingly. But not because the thing |

| W1:13.3 | to recognize the meaningless and accept it without fear. If you are | fearful, it is certain that you will endow the world with attributes |
| W1:39.6 | and so on. Whatever form they take, they are unloving and therefore | fearful. And so it is from them that you need to be saved. |
| W1:47.1 | own strength, you have every reason to be apprehensive, anxious, and | fearful. What can you predict or control? What is there in you that |
| W1:56.3 | that vision is my greatest need. The world I see attests to the | fearful nature of the self-image I have made. If I would remember who |
| W1:56.4 | Above all else I want to see differently. The world I see holds my | fearful self-image in place, and guarantees its continuance. While I |
| W1:68.3 | grievances denies he was created by Love, and his Creator has become | fearful to him in his dream of hate. Who can dream of hatred and not |
| W1:87.2 | of my will today. It is not my will to grope about in darkness, | fearful of shadows and afraid of things unseen and unreal. Light |
| W1:92.7 | and darkness covers everything it sees, leaving its dreams as | fearful as itself. No miracles are here, but only hate. It separates |
| W1:109.6 | away. Let it be still and thankfully accept its healing. No more | fearful dreams will come now that you rest in God. Take time today to |
| W1:133.12 | there are but two. And the alternative you think you chose seems | fearful and too dangerous to be the nothingness it actually is. |
| W1:135.7 | Is not this picture | fearful? Can you be at peace with such a concept of your home? Yet |
| W1:153.7 | What can save you now from your delusion of an angry god whose | fearful image you believe you see at work in all the evils of the |
| W1:153.9 | attack has any meaning. Now we cannot fear, for we have left all | fearful thoughts behind. And in defenselessness we stand secure, |
| W1:153.12 | designed by One Who loves His children, and Who would replace their | fearful toys with joyous games which teach them that the game of fear |
| W1:153.13 | lost to hope, abandoned by your Father, left alone in terror in a | fearful world made mad by sin and guilt, be happy now. That game is |
| W1:158.7 | can be touched, a purity undimmed by errors, pitiful mistakes, and | fearful thoughts of guilt from dreams of sin. It sees no separation. |
| W1:163.8 | Death's worshipers may be afraid. And yet can thoughts like these be | fearful? If they saw that it is only this which they believed, they |
| W1:170.10 | seeming obstacle with the appearance of a solid block, impenetrable, | fearful and beyond surmounting, is the fear of God Himself. Here is |
| W1:170.11 | “enemy,” its cruelty as now a part of love. And what becomes more | fearful than the heart of Love Itself? The blood appears to be upon |
| W1:189.5 | If hatred finds a place within your heart, you will perceive a | fearful world, held cruelly in death's sharp-pointed, bony fingers. |
| W1:190.5 | they will accept your holy will as theirs. And what was seen as | fearful now becomes a source of innocence and holiness. |
| W1:191.1 | jailer to the Son of God. What could it be but vicious and afraid, | fearful of shadows, punitive and wild, lacking all reason, blind, |
| W1:192.7 | confusion born of error. We are lost in mists of shifting dreams and | fearful thoughts, our eyes shut tight against the light, our minds |
| W1:196.6 | Such is the form of madness you believe if you accept the | fearful thought you can attack another and be free yourself. Until |
| W2:WIB.3 | For only love creates in truth, and truth can never fear. Made to be | fearful, must the body serve the purpose given it. But we can change |
| W2:263.1 | as if it could be made sinful? I would not perceive such dark and | fearful images. A madman's dream is hardly fit to be my choice |
| W2:WIHS.3 | His Voice appeal in vain nor turn away from His replacement for the | fearful images and dreams you made. The Holy Spirit understands the |

| M:16.9 | nor demanding sacrifice, healing nor destructive, quieting nor | fearful. When all magic is recognized as merely nothing, the teacher |
| M:16.10 | as true must be abandoned through his recognition not that it is | fearful, not that it is sinful, not that it is dangerous, but merely |
| M:25.4 | for what is withheld from love is given to fear and will be | fearful in consequence. |

| W1:132.4 | You have enslaved the world with all your | fears, your doubts and miseries, your pain and tears, and all your |

| W1:199.7 | themselves as bound and helpless and afraid. Let love replace their | fears through you. Accept salvation now, and give your mind to Him |
| W2:240.2 | How foolish are our | fears! Would You allow Your Son to suffer? Give us faith today to |
| W2:WICR.4 | our eternal unity with Him. Yet back of all our doubts, past all our | fears, there still is certainty. For Love remains with all Its |

| Tx:2.72 | it under your will, where it does not belong. This means that you | feel responsible for it. The level confusion here is obvious. |
| Tx:2.74 | When you are fearful, you have willed wrongly. This is why you | feel responsible for it. You must change your mind, not your |
| Tx:2.93 | small part of the day and somewhat inconsistently even then. You may | feel at this point that it would take a miracle to enable you to do |
| Tx:3.42 | in which attack is always possible. Man has every reason to | feel afraid as he perceives himself. This is why he cannot escape |
| Tx:3.65 | When you | feel tired, it is merely because you have judged yourself as capable |
| Tx:3.65 | idea of being more debased than they are. All of this does make you | feel tired because it is essentially disheartening. You are not |
| Tx:3.71 | There is no man who does not | feel that he is imprisoned in some way. If this is the result of his |
| Tx:3.79 | is why you become so fearful. As you approach the beginning, you | feel the fear of the destruction of your thought system upon you, as |
| Tx:4.27 | the love that animals have for their own offspring and the need they | feel to protect them. This is because they regard them as part of |
| Tx:4.49 | of yourself the will to separate, which conflicts with the love you | feel for what you made because you made it. No human love is without |
| Tx:4.61 | When you | feel guilty, know that the ego has indeed violated the laws of God, |
| Tx:4.61 | your ego has hurt, the Atonement cannot release you. As long as you | feel guilty, your ego is in command because only the ego can |
| Tx:5.68 | own thought and must therefore obey its orders. This makes them | feel responsible for their mind errors, without recognizing that by |
| Tx:5.94 | the usual sense because this implies guilt. If you allow yourself to | feel guilty, you will reinforce the error rather than allow it to be |
| Tx:5.95 | have made a decision not to be wholly joyous if that is how you | feel. Therefore, the first step in the undoing is to recognize that |
| Tx:5.96 | I will to decide otherwise, because I want to be at peace. I do not | feel guilty, because the Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences |
| Tx:6.27 | the separation going. It is solely a device of the ego to make you | feel different from your brothers and separated from them. The ego |
| Tx:7.70 | Whenever you deny a blessing to a brother, you will | feel deprived. This is because denial is as total as love. It is as |
| Tx:7.78 | you did not value it and therefore did not want it. This makes you | feel deprived of it, and by projecting your own rejection, you |
| Tx:8.25 | you can disobey them. Yet if you do, and only if you do, you will | feel lonely and helpless, because you are denying yourself everything. |
| Tx:8.77 | A learning device is not a teacher. It cannot tell you how you | feel. You do not know how you feel, because you have accepted the |
| Tx:8.77 | a teacher. It cannot tell you how you feel. You do not know how you | feel, because you have accepted the ego's confusion, and you think |
| Tx:8.77 | confusion, and you think that a learning device can tell you how you | feel. Sickness is merely another example of your insistence on asking |
| Tx:8.77 | does not know the answer. The ego is incapable of knowing how you | feel. When we said that the ego does not know anything, we said the |
| Tx:8.105 | panic, because you are trying to make yourself unreal. When you | feel these things, do not try to look beyond yourself for truth, for |
| Tx:9.66 | not remember being awake. When you hear the Holy Spirit, you merely | feel better because loving seems possible to you, but you do not |
| Tx:9.104 | If God knows His Children to be wholly joyous, it is blasphemous to | feel depressed. All of these illusions and the many other forms which |
| Tx:10.74 | This is a very simple course. Perhaps you do not | feel that a course which, in the end, teaches nothing more than that |
| Tx:11.75 | an essential part of the Holy Spirit's teaching. For as long as you | feel guilty, you are listening to the voice of the ego, which tells |
| Tx:11.85 | If you did not | feel guilty, you could not attack, for condemnation is the root of |
| Tx:13.22 | guilt upon him or share it with him or perceive his own, you will | feel guilty. Nor will you find satisfaction and peace with him, |
| Tx:13.64 | which interferes with all your thinking. The happy learner cannot | feel guilty about learning. This is so essential to learning that it |
| Tx:13.79 | do so is to evaluate his Father and judge against Him. And you will | feel guilty for this imagined crime, which no one in this world or |
| Tx:13.87 | you do, you will still think that you are separate from Him. You can | feel His Presence next to you but cannot know that you are one with |
| Tx:13.89 | You will | feel guilty till you learn this. For in the end, whatever form it |
| Tx:15.74 | be anger. All anger is nothing more than an attempt to make someone | feel guilty, and this attempt is the only basis which the ego accepts |
| Tx:15.75 | with a body is not communication. And if you think it is, you will | feel guilty about communication and will be afraid to hear the Holy |
| Tx:16.44 | hate together, and even those who believe that hate is sin merely | feel guilty and do not correct it. |
| Tx:18.46 | When you | feel the holiness of your relationship is threatened by anything, |
| Tx:19.60 | this for which you would deny a home to peace. This “sacrifice” you | feel to be too great to make, too much to ask of you. |
| Tx:19.82 | is useful for your holy purpose. The body no more dies than it can | feel. It does nothing. Of itself, it is neither corruptible nor |
| Tx:19.90 | What would you see without the fear of death? What would you | feel and think if death held no attraction for you? Very simply, you |
| Tx:20.44 | Be comforted and | feel the Holy Spirit watching over you in love and perfect confidence |
| Tx:21.26 | And if you think what you have made can tell you what you see and | feel and place your faith in its ability to do so, you are denying |
| Tx:21.41 | quite appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no fear to let you | feel ashamed. It doubts not your belief and faith in sin. Its temples |
| Tx:22.50 | Forget not, when you | feel the need arise to be defensive about anything, you have |
| Tx:22.50 | you have identified yourself with an illusion. And therefore | feel that you are weak because you are alone. This is the cost of all |
| Tx:23.40 | the stairs to Heaven or the way to hell? Quite easily. How do you | feel? Is peace in your awareness? Are you certain which way you go? |
| Tx:23.41 | the massive guilt and frantic fear of punishment the murderer must | feel? He may deny he is a murderer and justify his savagery with |
| Tx:24.6 | “beneath” the special one is “natural” and “just.” The special ones | feel weak and frail because of differences, for what would make them |
| Tx:24.70 | gone. Yet you are reassured that it is there because you still can | feel it with your hands and hear it move. Here is an image that you |
| Tx:24.70 | true. It gives the eyes with which you look on it, the hands that | feel it, and the ears with which you listened to the sounds it makes. |
| Tx:25.32 | Minds that are joined and recognize they are can | feel no guilt. For they cannot attack, and they rejoice that this is |
| Tx:25.85 | you were unjust to one with equal rights. Seek to deny, and you will | feel denied. Seek to deprive, and you have been deprived. A miracle |
| Tx:26.59 | while cherishing attack. Its failure lies in that you still | feel guilty, though without understanding why. Effects are seen as |
| Tx:26.71 | loss is not your fear. But present joining is your dread. Who can | feel desolation except now? A future cause as yet has no effects. And |
| Tx:27.57 | holds within. Nor could it tell a part of God Himself what it should | feel and what its function is. Yet must He love whatever you hold |
| Tx:27.86 | truth. Whatever seems to be the cause of any pain and suffering you | feel, this is still true. For you would not react at all to figures |
| Tx:28.54 | so it has no need to be competitive. It can be victimized but cannot | feel itself as victim. It accepts no role but does what it is told, |
| Tx:29.18 | power in itself. As something, it can be perceived and thought to | feel and act and hold you in its grasp as prisoner to itself. And it |
| Tx:29.64 | and give their toys the power to move about and talk and think and | feel and speak for them. Yet everything their toys appear to do is in |

| Tx:29.69 | you feel fear in any form—and you are fearful if you do not | feel a deep content, a certainty of help, a calm assurance Heaven |
| Tx:30.6 | leads to fear because it contradicts what you perceive, and so you | feel attacked. And therefore angry. There are rules by which this |
| Tx:30.10 | want an answer that will work. Be certain this has happened if you | feel yourself unwilling to sit by and ask to have the answer given |
| Tx:30.16 | At least I can decide I do not like what I | feel now. |

| Tx:30.20 | that you want and that you need, because you do not like the way you | feel. This tiny opening will be enough to let you go ahead with just |

| W1:47.2 | in weakness and feel safe? Yet who can put his faith in strength and | feel weak? |
| W1:47.8 | of real safety. You will recognize that you have reached it if you | feel a sense of deep peace, however briefly. Let go all the trivial |
| W1:60.3 | I recognize His reflection on earth. I forgive all things because I | feel the stirring of His strength in me. And I begin to remember the |
| W1:67.6 | you will do much today to bring that awareness nearer, whether you | feel you have succeeded or not. |
| W1:68.5 | question of motivation. Today we will try to find out how you would | feel without them. If you succeed even by ever so little, there will |

| W1:69.7 | If you are doing the exercises properly, you will begin to | feel a sense of being lifted up and carried ahead. Your little effort |
| W1:72.15 | that the answer will be true because of Whom you ask. Whenever you | feel your confidence wane and your hope of success flicker and go |
| W1:74.11 | the peace to which your reality entitles you. Sink into it, and | feel it closing around you. There may be some temptation to mistake |
| W1:74.11 | the difference is easily detected. If you are succeeding, you will | feel a deep sense of joy and an increased alertness rather than a |
| W1:74.12 | If you | feel yourself slipping off into withdrawal, quickly repeat the idea |
| W1:79.3 | There seems to be no end to them. There is no time in which you | feel completely free of problems and at peace. |
| W1:91.4 | vanish. Today we will devote ourselves to the attempt to let you | feel this strength. When you have felt the strength in you which |
| W1:91.4 | your sense of weakness hides will leap into awareness as you | feel the strength in you. |
| W1:91.9 | Spirit uses to replace the image of a body in your mind. You need to | feel something to put your faith in, as you lift it from the body. |
| W1:91.13 | strength will come. It is through Their strong support that you will | feel the strength in you. They are united with you in this practice |
| W1:94.3 | devote the first five minutes of each waking hour to the attempt to | feel the truth in you. Begin these times of searching with these |
| W1:95.16 | Repeat this several times, and then attempt to | feel the meaning which the words convey. You are One Self, united and |
| W1:95.18 | Feel this One Self in you, and let it shine away all your illusions | |
| W1:95.18 | and His love forever yours. You are One Self, and it is given you to | feel this Self within you and to cast all your illusions out of the |
| W1:107.2 | you imagine what a state of mind without illusions is? How it would | feel? Try to remember when there was a time—perhaps a minute, maybe |
| W1:122.11 | your acceptance of the answer brings. Today it will be given you to | feel the peace forgiveness offers and the joy the lifting of the veil |
| W1:124.4 | We are one with Him today in recognition and remembrance. We | feel Him in our hearts. Our minds contain His thoughts; our eyes |
| W1:133.12 | its obviousness is overlaid with many levels of obscurity. If you | feel any guilt about your choice, you have allowed the ego's goals to |
| W1:134.9 | to true forgiveness and perceive it open wide in welcome. When you | feel that you are tempted to accuse someone of sin in any form, do |
| W1:134.11 | what he thought he saw was never there. And now he cannot | feel that all escape has been denied to him. |
| W1:136.19 | you will recognize you practiced well by this—the body should not | feel at all. If you have been successful, there will be no sense of |
| W1:137.2 | one self apart from all the rest to suffer what the others do not | feel. It gives the body final power to make the separation real and |
| W1:140.14 | And we will | feel salvation cover us with soft protection and with peace so deep |

| W1:166.8 | You cower fearfully lest you should | feel Christ's touch upon your shoulder and perceive His gentle hand |
| W1:166.9 | with you at last. Christ's hand has touched your shoulder, and you | feel that you are not alone. You even think the miserable self you |
| W1:166.13 | Teach them by showing them the happiness that comes to those who | feel the touch of Christ and recognize God's gifts. Let sorrow not |
| W1:166.15 | transformed the mind becomes which chooses to accept His gifts and | feel the touch of Christ. Such is your mission now. For God entrusts |
| W1:169.5 | no lips to speak them and no part of mind sufficiently distinct to | feel that it is now aware of something not itself. It has united with |
| W1:182.1 | the Voice nor what it is the Voice reminds you of. Yet still you | feel an alien here, from somewhere all unknown. Nothing so definite |
| W1:189.1 | sight. This light is a reflection of the thought we practice now. To | feel the Love of God within you is to see the world anew, shining in |
| W1:189.2 | Who could | feel fear in such a world as this? It welcomes you, rejoices that you |
| W1:189.4 | is the world of hatred equally unseen and inconceivable to those who | feel God's Love in them. Their world reflects the quietness and peace |

| W2:I.10 | to God and all temptations disappear. Instead of words, we need but | feel His Love. Instead of prayer, we need but call His Name. Instead |
| W2:236.1 | to triumph over me and tell me what to think and what to do and | feel. And yet it has been given me to serve whatever purpose I |

| Tx:5.48 | Let us make the distinction a little sharper now. Neurotic guilt | feelings are a device of the ego for “atoning” without sharing and |

| Tx:2.39 | and ultimately to make learning complete. The Atonement is the | final lesson. Learning itself, like the classrooms in which it |
| Tx:2.47 | appears to contradict free will because of the inevitability of the | final decision. If you review the idea carefully, however, you will |
| Tx:2.52 | inappropriately. Healing is not a miracle. The Atonement or the | final miracle is a remedy, while any type of healing is a result. The |
| Tx:2.67 | what it sees. Yet what man forgets is that the discomfort is not the | final outcome of its perception. When the Spiritual eye is permitted |
| Tx:2.108 | by God. Actually it will be undertaken by man with my help. It is a | final healing rather than a meting out of punishment, however much |
| Tx:3.18 | of darkness. The Atonement is thus the perfect lesson. It is the | final demonstration that all of the other lessons which I taught are |
| Tx:5.20 | no other. It takes effort and great willingness to learn. It is the | final lesson that I learned, and God's Sons are as equal as learners |

| Tx:16.47 | lies in triumph and in the extension of the “victory” even to the | final triumph over God. In this it sees the ultimate freedom of the |

| W1:193.20 | down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. God will take this | final step Himself. Do not deny the little steps He asks you take to |
| W1:194.1 | gate, the quiet place of peace where you await with certainty the | final step of God. How far are we progressing now from earth! How |
| W1:200.2 | This is the | final point to which each one must come at last, to lay aside all |
| W2:I.2 | expectation for our God and Father. He has promised He will take the | final step Himself. And we are sure His promises are kept. We have |
| W2:I.8 | And so we start upon the | final part of this one holy year which we have spent together in the |
| W2:I.10 | Now is the need for practice almost done. For in this | final section we will come to understand that we need only call to |
| W2:225.2 | and it is but this oneness that we seek as we accomplish these few | final steps which end a journey that was not begun. |
| W2:WS.4 | to this holy place and spend a while together. Here we share our | final dream. It is a dream in which there is no sorrow, for it holds |
| W2:WIC.4 | to Him to be translated into truth. He will exchange them for the | final dream which God appointed as the end of dreams. For when |
| W2:289.2 | of sin. Here is the end of guilt. And here am I made ready for Your | final step. Shall I demand that You wait longer for Your Son to find |
| W2:WIRW.5 | purpose. Now He waits but that one instant more for God to take His | final step, and time has disappeared, taking perception with it as it |
| W2:292.1 | make no exceptions. And He guarantees that only joy can be the | final outcome found for everything. Yet it is up to us when this is |
| W2:297.2 | Father, how certain are Your ways, how sure their | final outcome, and how truly faithful is every step in my salvation |
| W2:WILJ.2 | The | final judgment on the world contains no condemnation. For it sees the |
| W2:WILJ.4 | God's | Final Judgment is as merciful as every step in His appointed plan to |
| W2:WILJ.5 | This is God's | Final Judgment: “You are still My holy Son, forever innocent, forever |
| W2:WAI.2 | Our use for words is almost over now. Yet in the | final days of this one year we gave to God together, you and I, we |
| W2:FL.1 | Our | final lessons will be left as free of words as possible. We use them |
| M:4.24 | the face of Christ. Now is the goal achieved. Forgiveness is the | final goal of the curriculum. It paves the way for what goes far |
| M:5.7 | world. The transfer value of one true idea has no end nor limit. The | final outcome of this lesson is the remembrance of God. What do guilt |
| M:14.3 | understand this? No; it is meaningless to anyone here. Yet it is the | final lesson in which unity is restored. It goes against all the |
| M:14.4 | then, bits and pieces of its thinking will still seem sensible. The | final lesson which brings the ending of the world cannot be grasped |
| M:15.1 | Indeed yes! No one can escape God's | Final Judgment. Who could flee forever from the truth? But the Final |
| M:15.1 | God's Final Judgment. Who could flee forever from the truth? But the | Final Judgment will not come until it is no longer associated with |
| M:15.1 | proclaimed around and around the world, setting it free as God's | Final Judgment on him is received. This is the judgment in which |
| M:15.3 | end. Judge not, for you but judge yourself and thus delay this | Final Judgment. What is your judgment on the world, teacher of God? |
| M:25.1 | his learning and all his efforts be directed toward this one great | final surprise, and he will not be content to be delayed by the |

| M:28.1 | end of dreams of misery and the glad awareness of the Holy Spirit's | final dream. It is the recognition of the gifts of God. It is the |
| M:28.1 | and surpassed with this. It is the invitation to God to take His | final step. It is the relinquishment of all other purposes, all other |

| Tx:8.20 | power and glory are in him, because they are yours. The ego tries to | find them in yourself, because it does not know where to look. The |

| Tx:11.39 | that will lead to joy. For His promise is always, “Seek and you will | find,” and under His guidance you cannot be defeated. His is the |
| Tx:11.49 | We have said that the ego's rule is, “Seek and do not | find.” Translated into curricular terms, this is the same as saying, |
| Tx:11.66 | always that you see what you seek, for what you seek you will | find. The ego finds what it seeks and only that. It does not find |
| Tx:11.66 | will find. The ego finds what it seeks and only that. It does not | find love, for that is not what it is seeking. Yet seeking and |
| Tx:11.66 | and finding are the same, and if you seek for two goals you will | find them, but you will recognize neither. For you will think they |
| Tx:11.67 | and then you look out and behold his witnesses. This is why you | find what you seek. What you want in yourself, you will make manifest |
| Tx:11.72 | When you have accepted your mission to project peace, you will | find it, for by making it manifest, you will see it. Its holy |
| Tx:11.77 | see it. If you seek love in order to attack it, you will never | find it. For if love is sharing, how can you find it except through |
| Tx:11.77 | it, you will never find it. For if love is sharing, how can you | find it except through itself? Offer it and it will come to you |

| Tx:12.5 | “terrible” secret because you still wish to crucify him if you could | find him. Yet the wish has hidden him from you because it is very |
| Tx:12.5 | him from you because it is very fearful, and you are afraid to | find him. You have handled this wish to kill yourself by not knowing |
| Tx:12.11 | without fear if you did not believe that, without the ego, you would | find within yourself something you fear even more. You are not afraid |
| Tx:12.18 | only to unite with the Father in loving remembrance of Him. You will | find this place of truth as you see it in your brothers, for though |

| Tx:12.28 | of illusions and losing the endless opportunities which you could | find for release in the present. The ego would preserve your |
| Tx:12.49 | him from you, for truth lies only in the present, and you will | find it if you seek it there. You have looked for it where it is not |
| Tx:12.54 | of light, you know not that the light is in you. Yet you will | find it through its witnesses, for having given light to them, they |
| Tx:12.55 | nothing in this world can do. And you will lay aside the world and | find another. This other world is bright with love, which you have |
| Tx:12.61 | it that, and so although you turn in sadness from it, you cannot | find in it the road that leads away from it into another world. |
| Tx:12.68 | you do need things because it is a world of scarcity in which you | find yourself because you are lacking. Yet can you find yourself in |
| Tx:12.68 | in which you find yourself because you are lacking. Yet can you | find yourself in such a world? Without the Holy Spirit, the answer |
| Tx:12.75 | can you need? We will restore to you the peace of mind that we must | find together. The Holy Spirit will teach you to awaken unto us and |
| Tx:13.7 | your part in the redemption and who are seeking you and where to | find them. Knowledge is far beyond your individual concern. You, who |
| Tx:13.21 | who would unite in any way with anyone for his own salvation will | find it in that strange relationship. It is not shared, and so it is |
| Tx:13.22 | it with him or perceive his own, you will feel guilty. Nor will you | find satisfaction and peace with him, because your union with him is |
| Tx:13.23 | Yet you let them stand between you and your brothers, with whom you | find no real relationships at all. Can you expect to use your |
| Tx:13.23 | past. Would you impose your idle wishes on the present and hope to | find salvation now? |
| Tx:13.25 | whatever he may do, you will not look within, where you would always | find Atonement. The end of guilt will never come as long as you |
| Tx:13.39 | strange thoughts may occur to you, God's Will is done. You will | find the peace in which He has established you, because He does not |
| Tx:13.40 | what to avoid and what to seek. When you have learned this, you will | find the answer that makes the need for any differences disappear. |
| Tx:13.55 | Have faith in nothing, and you will | find the “treasure” that you sought. Yet you will add another burden |
| Tx:13.58 | I will place it gently in the holy place where it belongs. You will | find no deception there but only the simple truth. And you will love |
| Tx:14.11 | your innocence. The circle of Atonement has no end. And you will | find ever-increasing confidence in your safe inclusion in what is for |
| Tx:14.43 | he has been taught his need for it but knows not where to look to | find it. Let him, then, see it in you and share it with you. |
| Tx:14.55 | The lonely journey fails because it has excluded what it would | find. |
| Tx:14.75 | powerful they could not be of you. Leave room for Him, and you will | find yourself so filled with power that nothing will prevail against |
| Tx:15.3 | pursue you beyond the grave. And out of its unwillingness for you to | find peace even in the death it wants for you, it offers you |
| Tx:15.32 | will gladly give, having received. The host of God need not seek to | find anything. |
| Tx:15.35 | Delay it not. For beyond the past and future, in which you will not | find it, it stands in shimmering readiness for your acceptance. Yet |
| Tx:15.36 | much as you want it will you bring it nearer. Think not that you can | find salvation in your own way and have it. Give over every plan that |
| Tx:15.41 | For in private thoughts, known only to yourself, you think you | find a way to keep what you would have alone and share what you would |
| Tx:15.51 | resembles, and so however much you seek for its reality, you cannot | find it because it is not real. |
| Tx:15.56 | And it is equally impossible to condemn part of a relationship and | find peace within it. Under the Holy Spirit's teaching, all |
| Tx:15.57 | perfect love is in you. And so you seek without for what you cannot | find without. I offer you my perfect faith in you in place of all |
| Tx:15.59 | You do not | find it difficult to believe that, when another calls on God for |
| Tx:15.59 | idea, and so your faith in Him is strengthened by sharing. What you | find difficult to accept is the fact that, like your Father, you are |
| Tx:15.69 | He can make of them, you do not know, but you will become willing to | find out if you are willing, first, to perceive what you have made of |
| Tx:15.81 | and join you in your love. And where you are must everyone seek and | find you there. |
| Tx:15.106 | is it that in all your seeking for love, you seek for sacrifice and | find it. Yet you find not love. It is impossible to deny what love is |
| Tx:15.106 | your seeking for love, you seek for sacrifice and find it. Yet you | find not love. It is impossible to deny what love is and still |
| Tx:16.7 | is lost in any relationship which looks to weakness and hopes to | find love there. The power of love, which is its meaning, lies in the |
| Tx:16.33 | peace in which it would gladly come quietly to them. And when they | find the fear of death is still upon them, the love relationship |
| Tx:16.35 | Your task is not to seek for love but merely to seek and | find all of the barriers within yourself which you have built against |
| Tx:16.48 | and Heaven and making them indistinguishable. And the attempt to | find the imagined “best” of both worlds has merely led to fantasies |
| Tx:16.48 | better example could there be of the ego's maxim, “Seek but do not | find?” |
| Tx:16.60 | so will you be released. Forget this not, or love will be unable to | find you and comfort you. There is a way in which the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:16.65 | realize it is delay and that escape from pain is really possible. | Find hope and comfort rather than despair in this: You could no |
| Tx:16.65 | hope and comfort rather than despair in this: You could no longer | find even the illusion of love in any special relationship here. For |
| Tx:16.73 | you that salvation is past and that you must return to the past to | find salvation. There is no fantasy which does not contain the dream |
| Tx:16.80 | Seek and | find his message in the holy instant, where all illusions are |
| Tx:17.48 | is set. And your relationship has sanity as its purpose. For now you | find yourselves in an insane relationship, recognized as such in the |
| Tx:17.50 | you as you perceive its purpose work in it to make it holy. You will | find many opportunities to blame each other for the “failure” of your |
| Tx:17.53 | to blame each other for the discomfort of the situation in which you | find yourselves. And by this lack of thanks and gratitude, you make |
| Tx:17.68 | Every situation in which you | find yourself is but a means to meet the purpose set for your |
| Tx:18.16 | You do not | find the differences between what you see in sleep and on awaking |
| Tx:18.39 | because you insist there must be more that you need do. [You | find it difficult to accept the idea that you need give so little to |
| Tx:18.63 | not a means in your interpretation, and this always means you still | find sin attractive. No one accepts Atonement for himself who still |
| Tx:18.68 | Here is the ultimate release which everyone will one day | find in his own way, at his own time. We do not need this time. Time |
| Tx:18.80 | Go out and | find them, for they bring your Self with them. And lead them gently |
| Tx:19.32 | believe in sin. While you believe that bodies can unite, you will | find guilt attractive and believe that sin is precious. For the |
| Tx:19.36 | a temple of healing—a place where all the weary ones can come and | find rest. Here is the rest that waits for all after the journey. And |
| Tx:19.50 | out guilt and cherish every scrap of evil and of sin which they can | find, losing none of them on pain of death and laying them |
| Tx:19.71 | It is impossible to seek for pleasure through the body and not | find pain. It is essential that this relationship be understood, for |
| Tx:19.76 | itself along the way and finding what it seeks. So does the ego | find the death it seeks, returning it to you. |
| Tx:20.13 | The holiness that leads us is within us, as is our home. So will we | find what we were meant to find by Him Who leads us. |
| Tx:20.13 | is within us, as is our home. So will we find what we were meant to | find by Him Who leads us. |
| Tx:20.37 | comes closest to himself in a holy relationship. There he begins to | find the certainty his Father has in him. And there he finds his |
| Tx:20.58 | it that is not consistent. The seeming inconsistencies or parts you | find more difficult than others are merely indications of areas where |
| Tx:20.76 | no meaning cannot be perceived. And meaning always looks within to | find itself and then looks out. All meaning that you give the world |
| Tx:21.17 | decision is the determiner of every situation in which he seems to | find himself by chance or accident. No accident nor chance is |
| Tx:21.34 | Spirit has a use for all the means for sin by which you sought to | find it. But as He uses them, they lead away from sin because His |
| Tx:21.53 | ego's “reasoning.” Its alien nature to the ego is proof you will not | find the answer there. Yet if it must be so, it must exist. And if it |
| Tx:21.53 | and has your freedom as the purpose given it, you must be free to | find it. |
| Tx:21.73 | Yes, it can overrun the world and seek an enemy. But it can never | find what is not there. Yes, it can dream it found an enemy, but this |
| Tx:21.73 | but this will shift even as it attacks, so that it runs at once to | find another and never comes to rest in victory. And as it runs, it |
| Tx:21.74 | Reason would surely bid him seek no longer what is not there to | find. Yet first he must be willing to perceive a world where it is |
| Tx:21.76 | attests to your belief that truth may be the enemy you yet may | find. Here, then, would seem to be the last remaining hope of finding |
| Tx:22.12 | else.” Where Christ has entered, no one is alone, for never could He | find a home in separate ones. Yet must He be reborn into His ancient |
| Tx:22.44 | miracle to everyone! No one who has received it for himself could | find it difficult. For by receiving it, he learned it was not given |
| Tx:22.51 | as functionless. No one but yearns for freedom and tries to | find it. Yet he will seek for it where he believes it is and can be |
| Tx:22.51 | or body, and he will make the other serve his choice as means to | find it. |
| Tx:23.26 | with it to overcome His Son. Think not the ego will enable you to | find escape from what it wants. That is the function of this course, |
| Tx:23.35 | him deceive you. You cannot seek to harm him and be saved. Who can | find safety from attack by turning on himself? How can it matter what |
| Tx:23.46 | in safety from above and not be touched. But from within it, you can | find no safety. Not one tree left standing still will shelter you. |
| Tx:23.55 | could be wanted more? Who with the love of God upholding him could | find the choice of miracles or murder hard to make? |
| Tx:24.48 | He walks beside you and before, leading the way that He must go to | find Himself complete. His quietness becomes your certainty. And |
| Tx:24.54 | they see in everything. And it is He they look for everywhere and | find no sight nor place nor time where He is not. Within your |
| Tx:24.60 | it and promising success. Yet of the two, it is this one you | find more difficult. The “sacrifice” of self you understand, nor do |
| Tx:24.60 | tiny willingness, a nod to God, a greeting to the Christ in you, you | find a burden wearisome and tedious, too heavy to be borne. Yet to |
| Tx:25.12 | the body's eyes perceive fills you with fear? Perhaps you think you | find a hope of satisfaction there. Perhaps you fancy to attain some |
| Tx:25.40 | be regained unless the way is shown to him through you that you may | find it, walking by his side. |
| Tx:25.56 | needs and to the special time and place in which you think you | find yourself and where you can be free of place and time and all |
| Tx:25.64 | not called upon to do what one divided still against himself would | find impossible. Have little faith that wisdom could be found in such |
| Tx:26.14 | from the God of justice. But ask not God to punish him because you | find him guilty and would have him die. God offers you the means to |
| Tx:26.44 | the rest. For who can choose to keep the ones which he prefers and | find the safety that the truth alone can give? Who can believe |
| Tx:26.58 | too little. He would sacrifice his own identity with everything to | find a little treasure of his own. And this he cannot do without a |
| Tx:26.58 | loss, and loneliness. This is the treasure he has sought to | find. And he could only be afraid of it. Is fear a treasure? Can |
| Tx:26.88 | to perceive yourself unfairly treated. In this view, you seek to | find an innocence which is not Theirs but yours alone and at the cost |
| Tx:27.2 | not escape the death you made for him. But in his innocence, you | find your own. |
| Tx:27.67 | allegiance. What conceals the truth is not where you should look to | find the truth. The witnesses to sin all stand within one little |
| Tx:27.67 | to sin all stand within one little space. And it is here you | find the cause of your perspective on the world. |
| Tx:28.38 | whatever form they take, for you will lose identity in them. You | find yourself by not accepting them as causing you and giving you |
| Tx:29.9 | the body to say “no” to Heaven's calling, were you not afraid to | find a loss of self in finding God? Yet can your Self be lost by |
| Tx:29.10 | looking on it as a simple way, without a sacrifice or any loss, to | find yourself in Heaven and in God? Until you realize you give up |
| Tx:29.12 | It has been hopeless to attempt to | find the hope of peace upon a battleground. It has been futile to |
| Tx:29.14 | where you invited Him to be. There is no other place where He can | find His host nor where His host can meet with Him. And nowhere else |
| Tx:29.35 | of hate? Who would lay bloody hands on Heaven itself and hope to | find its peace? Your brother thinks he holds the hand of death. |
| Tx:29.43 | answer in His place. There is no other answer you can substitute and | find the happiness His answer brings. Seek not outside yourself. For |
| Tx:29.44 | he wanders aimlessly about in search of something that he cannot | find, believing that he is what he is not. |
| Tx:29.48 | known to you and to maintain allegiance to the dream that you must | find what is outside yourself to be complete and happy. It is vain to |
| Tx:30.2 | consciously each time you wake, will put you well ahead. And if you | find resistance strong and dedication weak, you are not ready. Do not |
| Tx:30.76 | yourself that is not whole and will remain afraid to look within and | find escape from every idol there. Salvation rests on faith there |
| Tx:31.7 | will succeed. There is no joy that you can seek for here and hope to | find. Yet this is not the only outcome which your learning can |
| Tx:31.30 | and orders that the world be like itself—a place where nothing can | find mercy or survive the ravages of fear except in murder and in |
| Tx:31.38 | step is to defeat your purpose here. You did not come to learn to | find a road the world does not contain. The search for different |
| Tx:31.39 | it. This makes no sense and cannot be the way. To you who seem to | find this course to be too difficult to learn, let me repeat that to |
| Tx:31.50 | roads nor realize the way you see yourself. Now must the Holy Spirit | find a way to help you see this concept of the self must be undone if |
| Tx:31.56 | great preoccupation of the world. And everyone believes that he must | find the answer to the riddle of himself. Salvation can be seen as |
| Tx:31.64 | will undo and let you see another world your eyes could never | find. Be not concerned how this could ever be. You do not understand |
| Tx:31.94 | Let us be glad that we can walk the world and | find so many chances to perceive another situation where God's gift |
| W1:I.4 | great specificity. Each one applies to every situation in which you | find yourself and to everything you see in it. Each day's exercises |
| W1:I.5 | Some of the ideas you will | find hard to believe, and others will seem quite startling. It does |
| W1:4.1 | not, however, select only the thoughts you think are “bad.” You will | find, if you train yourself to look at your thoughts, that they |
| W1:4.5 | Further, since these exercises are the first of their kind, you may | find the suspension of judgment in connection with thoughts |
| W1:5.5 | In these exercises, more than in the preceding ones, you may | find it hard to be indiscriminate and to avoid giving greater weight |
| W1:5.8 | You may also | find yourself less willing to apply today's idea to some perceived |
| W1:8.4 | your mind for the usual minute or so, merely noting the thoughts you | find there. Name each one by the central figure or theme it contains, |
| W1:8.10 | This can be done four or five times during the day, unless you | find it irritates you. If you find it trying, three or four times are |
| W1:8.10 | five times during the day, unless you find it irritates you. If you | find it trying, three or four times are sufficient. You might find it |
| W1:8.10 | If you find it trying, three or four times are sufficient. You might | find it helpful, however, to include your irritation, or any emotion |
| W1:10.6 | judgment. Try to avoid classification of any kind. In fact, if you | find it helpful to do so, you might imagine that you are watching an |
| W1:12.9 | for today. Nor should the practice periods exceed a minute. You may | find even this too long. Terminate the exercises whenever you |
| W1:13.8 | You may | find it difficult to avoid resistance in one form or another to this |
| W1:14.2 | have more than three practice periods with today's idea unless you | find them comfortable. If you do, it will be because you really |
| W1:16.4 | search. This is quite difficult until you get used to it. You will | find that it is still hard for you not to make artificial |
| W1:16.9 | Four or five practice periods are recommended if you | find them relatively effortless. If strain is experienced, three will |
| W1:22.2 | news to hear that it is not real? Is it not a happy discovery to | find that you can escape? You made what you would destroy— |
| W1:26.12 | anticipated outcomes for each situation continues, you will probably | find some of them, especially those which occur to you toward the |
| W1:29.2 | You will probably | find this idea very difficult to grasp at this point. You may find it |
| W1:29.2 | find this idea very difficult to grasp at this point. You may | find it silly, irreverent, senseless, funny, and even objectionable. |
| W1:32.4 | not less than three required. More than five can be utilized if you | find the exercises restful. To facilitate this, select a time when |
| W1:33.2 | these practice periods, the idea should be repeated as often as you | find profitable, though unhurried applications are essential. |
| W1:34.7 | anxiety, or worry, use the idea in its original form. If you | find you need more than one application of today's idea to help you |
| W1:39.10 | You may | find these sessions easier if you intersperse the applications with |
| W1:39.10 | repeat today's idea to yourself slowly a few times. You may also | find it helpful to include a few short intervals in which you just |
| W1:40.2 | close your eyes for the exercise periods, although you will probably | find it more helpful if you do. However, you may be in a number of |
| W1:41.6 | From time to time, you may repeat today's idea if you | find it helpful. But most of all, try to sink down and inward, away |
| W1:42.2 | and anywhere, wherever you are and in whatever circumstances you | find yourself. Your passage through time and space is not random. You |
| W1:42.8 | exercises. Try merely to step back and let the thoughts come. If you | find this difficult, it is better to spend the practice period |
| W1:42.8 | then closed, then open, and so on, than it is to strain in order to | find suitable thoughts. |
| W1:43.11 | If you should | find your mind wandering, if you begin to be aware of thoughts which |
| W1:43.12 | may vary according to the circumstances and situations in which you | find yourself during the day. When you are with someone else, for |
| W1:44.4 | five minutes. A longer time is highly recommended, but only if you | find the time merely slipping by with little or no sense of strain. |
| W1:44.5 | ready to learn the form of exercise we will use today, but you may | find that you will encounter strong resistance. The reason is very |
| W1:44.6 | recognizing that its opposition and fears are meaningless. You might | find it helpful to remind yourself from time to time that to reach |
| W1:44.9 | closed unless you are aware of fear. In that case, you will probably | find it more reassuring to open your eyes briefly. Try, however, to |
| W1:45.7 | My real thoughts are in my mind. I would like to | find them. |
| W1:55.5 | of illusions. I am willing to follow the Guide God has given me to | find out what my own best interests are, recognizing that I cannot |
| W1:61.8 | here. These two practice periods may be longer than the rest if you | find them helpful and want to extend them. |
| W1:62.2 | That is why all forgiveness is a gift to yourself. Your goal is to | find out who you are, having denied your Identity by attacking |
| W1:63.5 | If you can close your eyes, you will probably | find it easier to let related thoughts come to you in the minute or |
| W1:65.1 | is the one God gave me.” This is the only way in which you can | find peace of mind. |
| W1:65.8 | After a while, interfering thoughts will become harder to | find. Try, however, to continue a minute or so longer, attempting to |
| W1:66.3 | to its attacks on truth. We will merely be glad that we can | find out what truth is. |
| W1:66.11 | has taken in your mind and the many ways in which you tried to | find salvation under the ego's guidance. Did you find it? Were you |
| W1:66.11 | which you tried to find salvation under the ego's guidance. Did you | find it? Were you happy? Did they bring you peace? |
| W1:67.5 | must be in you. And somewhere in your mind, It is there for you to | find. |
| W1:67.6 | You may | find it necessary to repeat the idea for today from time to time to |
| W1:67.6 | from time to time to replace distracting thoughts. You may also | find that this is not sufficient and that you need to continue adding |
| W1:68.4 | will suffer guilt as it is certain that those who forgive will | find peace. It is as sure that those who hold grievances will forget |
| W1:68.5 | however, is simply a question of motivation. Today we will try to | find out how you would feel without them. If you succeed even by ever |
| W1:68.6 | you regard as major grievances. Some of these will be quite easy to | find. Then think of the seemingly minor grievances you hold against |
| W1:70.12 | reach the light in you, which is where your salvation is. You cannot | find it in the clouds that surround the light, and it is in them you |
| W1:71.5 | is in strict accord with the ego's basic doctrine, “Seek but do not | find.” For what could more surely guarantee that you will not find |
| W1:71.5 | do not find.” For what could more surely guarantee that you will not | find salvation than to channelize all your efforts in searching for |
| W1:72.14 | salvation, Father?” Ask and you will be answered. Seek and you will | find. |
| W1:72.15 | We are no longer asking the ego what salvation is and where to | find it. We are asking it of truth. Be certain, then, that the answer |
| W1:73.9 | the exercises for today in happy confidence, certain that we will | find what it is your will to find and remember what it is your will |
| W1:73.9 | happy confidence, certain that we will find what it is your will to | find and remember what it is your will to remember. No idle wishes |
| W1:74.15 | Then try to | find what you are seeking. A minute or two every half-hour, with eyes |
| W1:76.2 | For if you could, you would forever seek where it is not and never | find it. The idea for today tells you once again how simple is |
| W1:77.9 | will recognize these situations; you are not relying on yourself to | find them, you are therefore fully entitled to receive them whenever |
| W1:79.3 | That is the position in which you | find yourselves now. You have the answer, but you are still uncertain |
| W1:R2.2 | and then close your eyes and listen. Repeat the first phase if you | find your mind wandering, but try to spend the major part of the |
| W1:83.5 | Source. And I must learn to recognize what makes me happy if I would | find happiness. |
| W1:84.3 | You might | find these specific forms helpful in applying the idea: |
| W1:92.9 | to embrace you as Its own. Such is the meeting place we try today to | find and rest in, for the peace of God is where your Self, His Son, |
| W1:92.10 | light, closing the body's eyes and asking truth to show us how to | find the meeting place of self and Self, where light and strength are |
| W1:96.5 | Spirit makes use of mind as means to | find its Self-expression. And the mind which serves the Spirit is at |
| W1:96.9 | We will attempt today to | find this thought, whose presence in your mind is guaranteed by Him |
| W1:96.14 | have denied, and let your mind go wandering in a world of dreams, to | find illusions in their place. Here are your thoughts, the only ones |
| W1:96.14 | are your thoughts, the only ones you have. Salvation is among them; | find it there. |
| W1:99.20 | on your mind and let all fear be gently laid aside that Love may | find Its rightful place in you and show you that you are the Son of |
| W1:100.9 | Now let us try to | find that joy which proves to us and all the world God's Will for us. |
| W1:100.9 | us and all the world God's Will for us. It is your function that you | find it here and that you find it now. For this you came. Let this |
| W1:100.9 | Will for us. It is your function that you find it here and that you | find it now. For this you came. Let this one be the day that you |
| W1:100.10 | are essential to His plan. You are His messenger today. And you must | find what He would have you give. |
| W1:101.2 | for, for they know it waits for them and it will seek them out and | find them somewhere, sometime, in some form which evens the account |
| W1:101.9 | So should you start your practice periods, and then attempt again to | find the joy these thoughts will introduce into your mind. Give these |
| W1:102.6 | mind, for it is there, awaiting but your choice. You cannot fail to | find it when you learn it is your choice and that you share God's |
| W1:104.7 | where His gifts of peace and joy are welcome and to which we come to | find what has been given us by Him. We come in confidence today, |
| W1:108.12 | and it will come to you in the amount in which you gave it. You will | find you have exact return, for this is what you asked. It might be |
| W1:110.10 | Seek Him today, and | find Him. He will be your savior from all idols you have made. For |
| W1:110.10 | He will be your savior from all idols you have made. For when you | find Him you will understand how worthless are your idols and how |
| W1:121.11 | him somewhere—a little gleam which you had never noticed. Try to | find some little spark of brightness shining through the ugly picture |
| W1:122.5 | Here is the answer! Seek for it no more. You will not | find another one instead. God's plan for your salvation cannot |
| W1:124.10 | hold out to you to look upon yourself. When you are ready, you will | find it there within your mind and waiting to be found. You will |
| W1:127.5 | what love is, and what you are as well. Seek not within the world to | find your Self. Love is not found in darkness and in death. Yet it is |
| W1:129.3 | Is it a loss to | find a world instead where losing is impossible, where love endures |
| W1:129.3 | hate cannot exist, and vengeance has no meaning? Is it loss to | find all things you really want and know they have no ending, and |
| W1:130.9 | the strength God offers me and see no value in this world that I may | find my freedom and deliverance. |
| W1:131.1 | is the setting of his searching and the place to which he comes to | find stability? |
| W1:131.5 | you must. Be glad as well to learn you search for Heaven and must | find the goal you really want. No one can fail to want this goal and |
| W1:131.6 | nor affect His perfect, timeless, and unchanging Love. You will | find Heaven. Everything you seek but this will fall away, yet not |
| W1:131.10 | abides in what does not exist, while Heaven is the place he cannot | find. Leave foolish thoughts like these behind today, and turn your |
| W1:131.15 | Seek for that door and | find it. But before you try to open it, remind yourself no one can |
| W1:131.17 | gladness, for we come to the appointed time and place where you will | find the goal of all your searching here and all the seeking of the |
| W1:131.19 | Today I seek and | find all that I want. My single purpose offers it to me. No one can |
| W1:132.3 | future from all ancient thoughts of seeking what you do not want to | find. The present now remains the only time. Here in the present is |
| W1:132.3 | past be lifted and release the future from your ancient fears, you | find escape and give it to the world. |
| W1:132.8 | Some see it suddenly on point of death and rise to teach it. Others | find it in experience that is not of this world, which shows them |
| W1:132.8 | the truth, and yet it clearly contradicts the world. And some will | find it in this course and in the exercises that we do today. |
| W1:133.14 | is reached by empty hands and open minds, which come with nothing to | find everything and claim it as their own. We will attempt to reach |
| W1:133.16 | and only what has value do I seek, for only that do I desire to | find. |
| W1:134.3 | The major difficulty that you | find in genuine forgiveness on your part is that you still believe |
| W1:134.9 | of you, the door is open to yourself. There is a very simple way to | find the door to true forgiveness and perceive it open wide in |
| W1:140.8 | all illusions, not another shift among them. We will try today to | find the source of healing, which is in our minds because our Father |
| W1:153.2 | within. The mind is now confused and knows not where to turn to | find escape from its imaginings. |
| W1:153.15 | as distraction ceases to arise to turn us from our purpose, we will | find that half an hour is too short a time to spend with God. Nor |
| W1:155.2 | they can be illusions and avoid their own reality. Yet when they | find their own reality is even here, then they step back and let it |
| W1:155.3 | those to look upon who chose to come and have not yet rejoiced to | find they were mistaken in the choice. They cannot learn directly |
| W1:155.9 | now, yet carefully because this path is new to you. And you may | find that you are tempted still to walk ahead of truth and let |
| W1:160.6 | What does he search for now? What can he | find? A stranger to himself can find no home wherever he may look, |
| W1:160.6 | does he search for now? What can he find? A stranger to himself can | find no home wherever he may look, for he has made return impossible. |
| W1:166.4 | he thinks he knows. Here is the only safety he believes that he can | find. Without the world he made is he an outcast, homeless and |
| W1:170.14 | who render us complete. In them we see Your glory, and in them we | find our peace. Holy are we because Your holiness has set us free. |
| W1:R5.15 | disappears as we approach the Source of meaning. It is here that we | find rest. |
| W1:182.3 | about in endless search, seeking in darkness what he cannot | find, not recognizing what it is he seeks. A thousand homes he makes, |
| W1:182.4 | Perhaps you think it is your childhood home that you would | find again. The childhood of your body and its place of shelter are a |
| W1:183.3 | holds dear has suddenly gone by, and where it seemed to stand you | find a star; a miracle of grace. The sick arise, healed of their |
| W1:185.8 | devote your practice periods to careful searching of your mind to | find the dreams you cherish still. What do you ask for in your heart? |
| W1:185.11 | No one who truly seeks the peace of God can fail to | find it. For he merely asks that he deceive himself no longer by |
| W1:186.8 | And so we | find our peace. We will accept the function God has given us, for all |
| W1:188.2 | This light cannot be lost. Why wait to | find it in the future or believe it has been lost already or was |
| W1:189.9 | knows the way to him. He does not need His Son to show Him how to | find His way. Through every opened door His love shines outward from |
| W1:189.10 | of what we are or who created us. Yours is the way that we would | find and follow. And we ask but that Your Will, which is our own as |
| W1:191.5 | But let today's idea | find a place among your thoughts, and you have risen far above the |
| W1:191.13 | till you are free. They cannot see the mercy of the world until you | find it for yourself. They suffer pain until you have denied its hold |
| W1:195.4 | love. We offer thanks to God our Father that in us all things will | find their freedom. It will never be that some are loosed while |
| W1:195.7 | for them. For if we can direct them to the peace that we would | find, the way is opening at last to us. An ancient door is swinging |
| W1:197.1 | and forgiveness. Yet you turn them to attack again unless you | find external gratitude and lavish thanks. Your gifts must be |
| W1:198.4 | God Himself? And why would you oppose it, quarrel with it, seek to | find a thousand ways in which it must be wrong, a thousand other |
| W1:198.9 | with you. The truth bestows these words upon your mind that you may | find the key to light and let the darkness end: |
| W1:199.6 | Holy Spirit is the home of minds that seek for freedom. In Him they | find what they have sought. The body's purpose now is unambiguous. |
| W1:200.1 | Seek you no further. You will not | find peace except the peace of God. Accept this fact, and save |
| W1:200.1 | and doubt. Seek you no further. There is nothing else for you to | find except the peace of God, unless you seek for misery and pain. |
| W1:200.3 | yourself for vain imaginings, and seek no longer what you cannot | find. For what could be more foolish than to seek and seek and seek |
| W1:200.3 | and seek again for hell, when you have but to look with open eyes to | find that Heaven lies before you, through a door that opens easily to |
| W1:200.4 | where you belong. You are a stranger here. But it is given you to | find the means whereby the world no longer seems to be a prison house |
| W1:200.5 | must change your mind about the purpose of the world if you would | find escape. You will be bound till all the world is seen by you as |
| W1:200.7 | Will and to his own, which is the same as His. What could he hope to | find in such a world? It cannot have reality because it never was |
| W1:200.7 | can but deceive? Yet can he learn to look on it another way and | find the peace of God. |
| W1:208.1 | let the earth be still along with me. And in that stillness, we will | find the peace of God. It is within my heart, which witnesses to God |
| W1:217.1 | for my salvation but myself? And how but through salvation can I | find the Self to Whom my thanks are due? I am not a body. I am free. |
| W2:I.1 | enter peace. Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set and | find the end toward which our practicing was geared. |
| W2:I.7 | in silence, unafraid and certain of Your coming. We have sought to | find our way by following the Guide You sent to us. We did not know |
| W2:221.2 | our Father's answer to our call, to let our thoughts be still and | find His peace, to hear Him speak to us of what we are, and to reveal |
| W2:225.2 | Brother, we | find that stillness now. The way is open. Now we follow it in peace |
| W2:227.2 | And so today we | find our glad return to Heaven, which we never really left. The Son |
| W2:229.1 | I seek my own Identity and | find it in these words: “Love, Which created me, is what I am.” Now |
| W2:230.2 | there unchanged. I am as You created me. I need but call on You to | find the peace You gave. It is Your will that gave it to Your Son. |
| W2:WS.1 | Salvation is a promise made by God that you would | find your way to Him at last. It cannot but be kept. It guarantees |
| W2:231.1 | sought. For there is nothing else that I could ever really want to | find. Let me remember You. What else could I desire but the truth |

| W2:242.2 | needs. And You will give us everything we want and that will help us | find the way to You. |
| W2:246.1 | Let me not think that I can | find the way to God if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not try to |

| W2:269.1 | way to show me my mistakes and look beyond them. It is given me to | find a new perception through the Guide You gave to me and through |
| W2:WIC.5 | the Atonement has been reached at last? So therefore let us seek to | find Christ's face and look on nothing else. As we behold His glory |
| W2:280.2 | Today let me give honor to Your Son, for thus alone I | find the way to You. Father, I lay no limits on the Son You love and |

| W2:318.1 | means by which God's Son is saved because salvation's purpose is to | find the sinlessness which God has placed in me. I was created as the |
| W2:321.1 | what made me free nor what my freedom is nor where to look to | find it. Father, I have searched in vain until I heard Your Voice |
| W2:321.1 | myself no more. For I have neither made nor understood the way to | find my freedom. But I trust in You. You Who endowed me with my |
| W2:321.2 | for the world, which will be freed along with us. How glad are we to | find our freedom through the certain way our Father has established. |
| W2:322.1 | I sacrifice illusions, nothing more. And as illusions go, I | find the gifts illusions tried to hide, awaiting me in shining |
| W2:325.1 | the thing the mind desires, judges valuable, and therefore seeks to | find. These images are then projected outward, looked upon, esteemed |
| W2:325.1 | before he journeys on and help his brothers walk ahead with him and | find the way to Heaven and to God. |
| W2:328.1 | God's creation is the way in which salvation is obtained. Yet all we | find is sickness, suffering and loss, and death. This is not what our |

| W2:329.2 | by all of us. Through it we recognize that we are one. Through it we | find our way at last to God. |
| W2:331.2 | Let us look upon the holy sights forgiveness shows today that we may | find the peace of God. Amen. |
| W2:334.1 | I will not wait another day to | find the treasures which my Father offers me. Illusions must be vain |
| W2:334.1 | and choose to follow Him. This is my choice today. And so I go to | find the treasures God has given me. |
| W2:335.2 | reminds me that he was created one with me and like myself. In him I | find my Self, and in Your Son I find the memory of You as well. |

| W2:349.1 | I seek. For thus do I obey the law of love and give what I would | find and make my own. It will be given me because I have chosen it as |
| W2:352.1 | reflected in forgiveness here, reminds me You have given me a way to | find Your peace again. I am redeemed when I elect to follow in this |

| Tx:4.7 | a change towards further separation because the separation was their | first experience of change. |
| Tx:4.53 | each other. If you will really try to do this, you have taken the | first step toward preparing your mind for the Holy One to enter. We |
| Tx:4.66 | The | first coming of Christ is just another name for the creation, for |
| Tx:4.66 | of men and the healing of the mind. I was created like you in the | first, and I have called you to join with me in the second. If you |
| Tx:4.91 | will come to you only as you will give Him to your brothers. Learn | first of them, and you will be ready to hear God as you hear them. |
| Tx:5.10 | from the Universal Inspiration which is the Holy Spirit, taught me | first and foremost that this Inspiration is for all. I could not have |
| Tx:5.14 | First, its universality is perfectly clear, and no one who receives | |
| Tx:5.57 | God. Therefore, those who have been forgiven must devote themselves | first to healing, because having received the idea of healing, they |
| Tx:5.70 | it back to full creation at any minute if it accepts the Atonement | first. It will also turn back to full creation the instant it has |
| Tx:5.73 | simultaneously, or almost simultaneously, for the ego always speaks | first. Alternate interpretations were unnecessary until the first one |
| Tx:5.73 | speaks first. Alternate interpretations were unnecessary until the | first one was made, and speaking itself was unnecessary before the |
| Tx:5.86 | of fixation as Freud saw it has a number of learning advantages. | First, it recognizes that man can be fixated at a point in |
| Tx:5.95 | not to be wholly joyous if that is how you feel. Therefore, the | first step in the undoing is to recognize that you actively decided |
| Tx:6.10 | to teach it to our brothers in the name of the Kingdom of God, but | first believe that it is true for you, or you will teach amiss. |
| Tx:6.26 | you try to keep the fact that you must have attacked yourself | first out of awareness and thus imagine that you have made yourself |
| Tx:6.45 | Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the question. The ego always speaks | first because it is capricious and does not mean its maker well. That |
| Tx:6.46 | are separate and outside the Mind of God. The ego, then, raised the | first question that was ever asked, but one which it can never |
| Tx:6.47 | fact that the ego does not know. The Holy Spirit does not speak | first, but He always answers. Everyone has called upon Him for help |
| Tx:6.51 | you are is perfectly certain. There is no doubt there because the | first question was never asked. Having finally been wholly answered, |
| Tx:6.69 | than take the next step towards its resolution. Having taken the | first step, however, they will be helped. Once they have chosen what |
| Tx:6.71 | begin at that level. Strengthening motivation for change is their | first and foremost goal. It is also their last and final one. |
| Tx:6.72 | produce fundamental change, because the mind is fundamental. The | first step in the reversal or undoing process, then, is the undoing |
| Tx:6.72 | the undoing of the getting concept. Accordingly, the Holy Spirit's | first lesson was “to have, give all to all.” We said that this is apt |
| Tx:6.73 | is, “having” appears to be the opposite of “being.” Therefore, the | first lesson seems to contain a contradiction since it is being |
| Tx:6.73 | their motivation. This is the real reason why in many respects the | first lesson is the hardest to learn. Still strongly aware of the ego |
| Tx:6.74 | Upside-down as always, the ego perceives the | first lesson as insane. In fact this is its only alternative here |
| Tx:6.79 | being are still not equated. It is, however, more advanced than the | first step, which is really only a thought reversal. The second step |
| Tx:6.81 | progress is intermittent, but the second step is easier than the | first because it follows. The very fact that you have accepted that |
| Tx:6.86 | something you must be vigilant against. It has advanced far from the | first lesson, which was primarily a reversal and also from the |
| Tx:6.86 | step, which follows from the second as the second follows from the | first, emphasizes the dichotomy between the desirable and the |
| Tx:6.87 | While the | first step seems to increase conflict and the second step still |
| Tx:6.90 | You learn | first that having rests on giving and not on getting. Next you learn |
| Tx:7.7 | creations are changeless. He does nothing last, because He created | first and for always. It must be understood that the word “first” as |
| Tx:7.7 | that the word “first” as applied to Him is not a time concept. He is | first in the sense that He is the first in the Holy Trinity itself. |
| Tx:7.7 | Him is not a time concept. He is first in the sense that He is the | first in the Holy Trinity itself. He is the Prime Creator, because He |
| Tx:7.12 | Conflict can seem to be interpersonal, but it must be intrapersonal | first. |
| Tx:7.38 | Seek ye | first the Kingdom of Heaven, because that is where the laws of God |
| Tx:8.6 | The | first change that must be introduced is a change in direction. A |
| Tx:8.57 | yours. You have attacked him, but you must have attacked yourself | first. Do not see him this way for your own salvation, which must |
| Tx:9.12 | always leads you. The ego's plan is to have you see error clearly | first and then overlook it. Yet how can you overlook what you have |
| Tx:9.17 | eternity. This is the Second Coming, which was made for you as the | First was created. The Second Coming is merely the return of sense. |
| Tx:9.36 | way of giving acceptance and receiving it. In time, the giving comes | first, though they are simultaneous in eternity, where they cannot be |
| Tx:9.71 | God, you will understand why it is that you always attack yourself | first. |
| Tx:9.92 | create. Yet in the returning, the little light must be acknowledged | first, for the separation was a descent from magnitude to littleness. |
| Tx:10.16 | If sickness is separation, the will to heal and be healed is the | first step toward recognizing what you truly want. Every attack is a |
| Tx:10.34 | there is a strong tendency to harbor it within. It is difficult at | first to realize that this is exactly the same thing, for there is no |
| Tx:10.39 | of the ego will be our lesson for a while, for we must look | first at this to look beyond it since you have made it real. We will |
| Tx:11.25 | to your notion of salvation. The question is always two-fold— | first, what is to be saved, and second, how can it be saved? |
| Tx:11.45 | cancel out all reinforcement is in yourself. For you are always the | first point of your attack, and if this has never been, it has no |
| Tx:11.73 | without and within, for you will see it without because you saw it | first within. Everything you behold without is a judgment of what you |
| Tx:12.35 | own private world. And thus it is that you must attack yourself | first, for what you attack is not in others. Its only reality is in |
| Tx:12.67 | You will | first dream of peace and then awaken to it. Your first exchange of |
| Tx:12.67 | You will first dream of peace and then awaken to it. Your | first exchange of what you made for what you want is the exchange of |
| Tx:13.48 | what you have not. If, then, you offer blessing, it must have come | first to yourself. And you must also have accepted it as yours, for |
| Tx:13.54 | happily accomplished. You who are steadfastly devoted to misery must | first recognize that you are miserable and not happy. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.86 | see the truth of what you have acknowledged. Yet truth is offered | first to be received, even as God gave it first to His Son. The first |
| Tx:13.86 | Yet truth is offered first to be received, even as God gave it | first to His Son. The first in time means nothing, but the First in |
| Tx:13.86 | first to be received, even as God gave it first to His Son. The | first in time means nothing, but the First in eternity is God the |
| Tx:13.86 | gave it first to His Son. The first in time means nothing, but the | First in eternity is God the Father, Who is both First and One. |
| Tx:13.86 | nothing, but the First in eternity is God the Father, Who is both | First and One. Beyond the First, there is no other, for there is no |
| Tx:13.86 | in eternity is God the Father, Who is both First and One. Beyond the | First, there is no other, for there is no order, no second or third |
| Tx:13.86 | other, for there is no order, no second or third and nothing but the | First. |
| Tx:13.87 | You who belong to the | First Cause, created by Him like unto Himself and part of Him, are |
| Tx:15.24 | must learn to remember all the time. The lesson will seem hard at | first, but you will learn to love it when you realize that it is true |
| Tx:15.50 | have also judged against both. Yet you had judged against yourself | first, or you would never have imagined that you needed them as they |
| Tx:15.69 | know, but you will become willing to find out if you are willing, | first, to perceive what you have made of them. |
| Tx:16.13 | with it. When two minds join as one and share one idea equally, the | first link in the awareness of the Sonship as one has been made. When |
| Tx:16.43 | In looking at the special relationship, it is necessary | first to realize that it involves a great amount of pain. Anxiety, |
| Tx:16.47 | how it is accomplished. The Holy Spirit knows that completion lies | first in union and then in the extension of union. To the ego, |
| Tx:17.23 | Give the past to Him Who can change your mind about it for you. But | first be sure you fully realize what you have made the past to |
| Tx:17.44 | abruptly shifted to the exact opposite of what it was. This is the | first result of offering the relationship to the Holy Spirit to use |
| Tx:17.58 | In any situation in which you are uncertain, the | first thing to consider, very simply, is, “What do I want to come of |
| Tx:18.6 | That was the | first projection of error outward. The world arose to hide it and |
| Tx:18.20 | You would have used them to remain asleep. We once said that the | first change, before dreams disappear, is that your dreams of fear |
| Tx:18.35 | did not make the learner, nor can you make him different. Would you | first make a miracle yourself and then expect one to be made for you? |
| Tx:18.36 | with God's. Atonement cannot come to those who think that they must | first atone, but only to those who offer it nothing more than simple |
| Tx:19.38 | will you do. Yet the peace which already lies deeply within must | first expand and flow across the obstacles you placed before it. This |
| Tx:19.40 | The | first obstacle that peace must flow across is your desire to get rid |
| Tx:19.41 | remnant of attack you cherish still against each other that is the | first obstacle the peace in you encounters in its going forth. This |
| Tx:19.59 | We said that peace must | first surmount the obstacle of your desire to get rid of it. Where |
| Tx:19.59 | obstacle that peace must flow across, and closely related to the | first, is the belief that the body is valuable for what it offers. |
| Tx:19.63 | flows across all else. The second obstacle is no more solid than the | first. For you will neither to get rid of peace nor limit it. What |
| Tx:19.83 | the power to release from corruption. What better way to teach the | first and fundamental principle in a course on miracles than by |
| Tx:19.83 | you the one which seems to be the hardest can be accomplished | first? The body can but serve your purpose. As you look upon it, so |
| Tx:19.97 | eyes, you will be ready to look on terror with no fear at all. But | first lift up your eyes and look upon each other in innocence born of |
| Tx:20.8 | forgiven and you may look upon the Son of God as whole. But look you | first upon the altar in your chosen home and see what you have laid |
| Tx:20.18 | it or it to them. And so they saw that it was in them, not deciding | first where they would have it be. Their looking merely asked a |
| Tx:20.46 | than the experience of both a holy and an unholy relationship. The | first is based on love and rests on it, serene and undisturbed. The |
| Tx:20.67 | Vision will come to you at | first in glimpses, but they will be enough to show you what is given |
| Tx:21.18 | because you want it. Yet for this, the power of your wanting must | first be recognized. You must accept its strength and not its |
| Tx:21.36 | goes far beyond the body, supporting vision, not obstructing it. But | first they chose to recognize how much their faith had limited their |
| Tx:21.47 | part hears as the sweetest music—the song it longed to hear since | first the ego came into your minds. The ego's weakness is its |
| Tx:21.70 | in it. Enormity has no appeal save to the little. And only those who | first believe that they are little could see attraction there. |
| Tx:21.74 | would surely bid him seek no longer what is not there to find. Yet | first he must be willing to perceive a world where it is not. It is |
| Tx:21.76 | You have already answered the | first three questions but not yet the last. For this one still seems |
| Tx:22.14 | Here is the | first direct perception that you have made. You made it through |
| Tx:22.39 | It is but the | first few steps along the right way that seem hard, for you have |
| Tx:23.20 | The | first chaotic law is that the truth is different for everyone. Like |
| Tx:23.21 | Think how this seems to interfere with the | first principle of miracles. For this establishes degrees of truth |
| Tx:23.22 | deserves attack and death. This principle, closely related to the | first, is the demand that errors call for punishment and not |
| Tx:24.34 | of destruction, it must kill, and you are drawn to it to kill it | first. And such is guilt's attraction. Here is death enthroned as |
| Tx:24.43 | but to destruction? Yet think not that it looked upon your brother | first, nor hated him before it hated you. The sin its eyes behold in |
| Tx:24.45 | there to see and hear and love and follow home? He looked upon you | first but recognized that you were not complete. And so He sought for |
| Tx:25.82 | be vengeance, which at best can bring another problem added to the | first, in which the murder is not obvious. The Holy Spirit's problem |
| Tx:25.84 | and attack. No one can be unjust to you, unless you have decided | first to be unjust. And then must problems rise to block your way and |
| Tx:26.32 | the way to nothingness was made. The tiny tick of time in which the | first mistake was made, and all of them within that one mistake, held |
| Tx:26.32 | the Correction for that one and all of them that came within the | first. And in that tiny instant time was gone, for that was all it |
| Tx:27.14 | truth. Good cannot be returned for evil, for forgiveness does not | first establish sin and then forgive it. Who can say and mean, “My |
| Tx:27.32 | for more than everything? Yet true undoing must be kind. And so the | first replacement for your picture is another picture of another kind. |
| Tx:27.43 | the answers merely raise another question, though they leave the | first unanswered. In the holy instant, you can bring the question to |
| Tx:27.52 | to you by all the many different witnesses it finds. Your brother | first among them will be seen, but thousands stand behind him, and |
| Tx:27.67 | seen a need for evil in the world. And this is where your guilt was | first beheld. In separation from your brother was the first attack |
| Tx:27.67 | your guilt was first beheld. In separation from your brother was the | first attack upon yourself begun. And it is this the world bears |
| Tx:27.81 | for the part you see is but the second part, whose cause lies in the | first. No one asleep and dreaming in the world remembers his attack |
| Tx:28.23 | dreamer could not be the maker of the dream. Effect and cause are | first split off and then reversed, so that effect becomes a cause; |
| Tx:28.24 | of what has gone before, appearing as a cause. The miracle is the | first step in giving back to cause the function of causation, not |
| Tx:28.28 | is not our concern. For you have barely started to allow your | first uncertain steps to be directed up the ladder separation led you |
| Tx:29.20 | beyond his dreams is his reality. But he must learn he is a savior | first, before he can remember what he is. And he must save who would |
| Tx:30.6 | do. And what you hear may not resolve the problem as you saw it | first. This leads to fear because it contradicts what you perceive, |
| Tx:30.6 | There are rules by which this will not happen. But it does occur at | first, while you are learning how to hear. |
| Tx:30.9 | serve to let you be directed without fear, for opposition will not | first arise and then become a problem in itself. |
| Tx:30.28 | rules for its undoing. Let us, then, consider once again the very | first of the decisions which are offered here. |
| Tx:30.29 | really is with what you choose to make them. That is really all. The | first rule, then, is not coercion but a simple statement of a simple |
| Tx:30.57 | as they really are. And it is recognized that all things must be | first forgiven, and then understood. |
| Tx:30.63 | forgiveness to the love of God. Yet is the love of Christ accepted | first. And then will come the knowledge They are One. |
| Tx:30.74 | that can not be overlooked. For if there were, it would be necessary | first there be some sin which stands beyond forgiveness. There would |
| Tx:31.4 | suited you. And every lesson that makes up the world arises from the | first accomplishment of learning—an enormity so great the Holy |
| Tx:31.14 | of what you are. For there are steps in its relinquishment. The | first is a decision that you make. But afterwards the truth is given |
| Tx:31.26 | to make a choice that will result in different outcomes, there is | first one thing that must be overlearned. It must become a habit of |
| Tx:31.26 | of response so typical of everything you do that it becomes your | first response to all temptation and to every situation that occurs. |
| Tx:31.44 | to serve two purposes, but one of which the mind can recognize. The | first presents the face of innocence, the aspect acted on. It is this |
| Tx:31.45 | to those who would be generous and good. This aspect never makes the | first attack. But every day a hundred little things make small |
| Tx:31.54 | of [the] perceiver's mind. Yet who was it that did the choosing | first? If you are what you chose your brother be, alternatives were |
| Tx:31.54 | be, alternatives were there to choose among, and someone must have | first decided on the one to choose and let the others go. |
| Tx:31.55 | view. The main advantage of the shifting to the second from the | first is that you somehow entered in the choice by your decision. But |
| Tx:31.75 | holy ones especially entrusted to his care. And this he learns when | first he looks upon one brother as he looks upon himself and sees the |
| W1:I.3 | in the world. The workbook is divided into two sections, the | first dealing with the undoing of what you see now and the second |
| W1:2.1 | The exercises with this idea are the same as those for the | first one. Begin with the things that are near you, and apply the |
| W1:4.3 | time in somewhat different form. The aim here is to train you in the | first steps toward the goal of separating the meaningless from the |
| W1:4.3 | the goal of separating the meaningless from the meaningful. It is a | first attempt in the long-range purpose of learning to see the |
| W1:4.5 | pointlessly preoccupied. Further, since these exercises are the | first of their kind, you may find the suspension of judgment in |
| W1:5.1 | the day. Applying the same idea to each of them separately is the | first step in ultimately recognizing they are all the same. |
| W1:5.4 | this should not be substituted for practice periods in which you | first search your mind for “sources” of upset in which you believe |
| W1:5.8 | perceived sources of upset than to others. If this occurs, think | first of this: |
| W1:7.1 | This idea is particularly difficult to believe at | first. Yet it is the rationale for all of the preceding ones. |
| W1:7.8 | it. Yet that is precisely why you need new ideas about time. This | first time idea is not really so strange as it may sound at first. |
| W1:7.8 | This first time idea is not really so strange as it may sound at | first. Look at a cup, for example. |
| W1:8.3 | rather than believing that it is filled with real ideas, is the | first step to opening the way to vision. |
| W1:11.1 | This is the | first idea we have had which is related to a major phase of the |
| W1:13.8 | any signs of overt or covert fear which it may arouse. This is our | first attempt at stating an explicit cause and effect relationship of |
| W1:15.4 | In practicing the idea for today, repeat it | first to yourself, and then apply it to whatever you see around you, |
| W1:16.5 | In the practice periods, | first repeat the idea, and then as each one crosses your mind, hold |
| W1:17.1 | you have no neutral thoughts. It is always the thought that comes | first, despite the temptation to believe that it is really the other |
| W1:19.2 | fact that minds are joined. This is rarely a wholly welcome idea at | first, since it seems to carry with it an enormous sense of |
| W1:19.3 | are to be undertaken with eyes closed. The idea is to be repeated | first, and then the mind should be carefully searched for the |
| W1:20.2 | This is our | first attempt to introduce structure. Do not misconstrue it as an |
| W1:23.5 | you see, because its cause can be changed. This change requires, | first, that the cause be identified and then let go, so that it can |
| W1:23.5 | cause be identified and then let go, so that it can be replaced. The | first two steps in this process require your cooperation. The final |
| W1:23.5 | one does not. Your images have already been replaced. By taking the | first two steps, you will see that this is so. |
| W1:26.7 | First, name the situation: | |
| W1:28.7 | practice periods today in which the idea for the day is stated | first and then applied to whatever you see in looking about you. Not |
| W1:36.3 | First, close your eyes and repeat the idea for today several times | |
| W1:37.1 | This idea contains the | first glimmerings of your true function in the world or why you are |
| W1:39.10 | thinking of anything. Sustained concentration is very difficult at | first. It will become much easier as your mind becomes more |
| W1:41.4 | and obscuring, yet representing all you see? Today we will make our | first real attempt to get past this dark and heavy cloud and to go |
| W1:41.7 | is possible. This exercise can bring very startling results even the | first time it is attempted. And sooner or later, it is always |
| W1:43.11 | seem to be unable to think of anything, open your eyes, repeat the | first phase, and then try the second phase again. Do not allow any |
| W1:43.11 | which you become preoccupied with irrelevant thoughts. Return to the | first phase of the exercises as often as necessary to prevent this. |
| W1:46.6 | The purpose of the | first phase of today's practice is to put you in the best position to |
| W1:R1.1 | will cover five of the ideas already presented, starting with the | first and ending with the fiftieth. There will be a few short |
| W1:R1.6 | suggested then. We are now emphasizing the relationships among the | first fifty of the ideas we have covered and the cohesiveness of the |
| W1:61.9 | As a bringer of salvation, this is obviously necessary. This is the | first of a number of giant steps we will take in the next few weeks. |
| W1:64.10 | about them and about nothing else. This will be difficult at | first particularly, since you are not proficient in the mind |
| W1:65.6 | At | first, make no attempt to concentrate only on thoughts related to the |
| W1:66.7 | even if you do not yet accept the conclusion. It is only if the | first two thoughts are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let |
| W1:66.8 | The | first premise is that God gives you only happiness. This could be |
| W1:66.8 | definition of Him which you are believing if you do not accept the | first premise. |
| W1:71.9 | become depressed or angry at the second part; it is inherent in the | first. And in the first is your full release from all your own insane |
| W1:71.9 | or angry at the second part; it is inherent in the first. And in the | first is your full release from all your own insane attempts and mad |
| W1:76.1 | are not bound by them. Yet to understand that this is so, you must | first realize salvation lies not there. While you would seek for it |
| W1:78.7 | will see him in this role. We will attempt to hold him in our mind, | first as you now consider him. We will review his faults, the |
| W1:R2.2 | times if you wish, and then close your eyes and listen. Repeat the | first phase if you find your mind wandering, but try to spend the |
| W1:90.5 | only because I am misusing time. I believe that the problem comes | first, and time must elapse before it can be worked out. I do not see |
| W1:93.8 | periods today, which would be most profitable if done for the | first five minutes of every waking hour, we will begin by stating the |
| W1:93.12 | You may not be willing or even able to use the | first five minutes of each hour for these exercises. Try, however, to |
| W1:94.3 | Today we will again devote the | first five minutes of each waking hour to the attempt to feel the |
| W1:94.7 | If you do not meet the requirement of practicing for the | first five minutes of every hour, at least remind yourself hourly: |
| W1:95.4 | The use of the | first five minutes of every waking hour for practicing the idea for |
| W1:95.7 | for a while and urge you to omit as few as possible. Using the | first five minutes of the hour will be particularly helpful since it |
| W1:95.11 | a mistake to continue is to make additional mistakes based on the | first and reinforcing it. It is this process that must be laid aside, |
| W1:97.3 | use of time but is not ruled by it. Salvation is a miracle, the | first and last; the first that is the last, for it is one. |
| W1:97.3 | is not ruled by it. Salvation is a miracle, the first and last; the | first that is the last, for it is one. |
| W1:106.7 | you. The Bringer of all miracles has need that you receive them | first and thus become the joyous giver of what you received. Thus |
| W1:108.4 | of one Thought Whose truth does not depend on which is seen as | first, nor which appears to be in second place. Here it is understood |
| W1:R3.5 | are assigned. Read over the ideas and comments which are written | first in each day's exercise. And then begin to think about them |
| W1:R3.8 | We emphasize the benefits to you if you devote the | first five minutes of the day to your review and also give the last |
| W1:124.5 | as well, restoring them to life. All this we see because we saw it | first within ourselves. |
| W1:124.8 | a half an hour to the thought that you are one with God. This is our | first attempt at an extended period for which we give no rules nor |
| W1:133.7 | First, if you choose a thing that will not last forever, what you | |
| W1:134.5 | view their sins are real are pitifully mocked and twice condemned— | first by themselves for what they think they did and once again by |
| W1:135.5 | Let us consider | first what you defend. It must be something that is very weak and |
| W1:R4.12 | Each day of practicing, as we review, we close as we began, repeating | first the thought that made the day a special time of blessing and of |
| W1:152.3 | heard before, but may not yet accept both parts of it. Without the | first, the second has no meaning, but without the second is the first |
| W1:152.3 | the first, the second has no meaning, but without the second is the | first no longer true. Truth cannot have an opposite. This cannot be |
| W1:154.6 | the world appoints. The messages which they deliver are intended | first for them. And it is only as they can accept them for themselves |
| W1:154.6 | they did not write the messages they bear, but they become their | first receivers in the truest sense, receiving to prepare themselves |
| W1:159.1 | No one can give what he has not received. To give a thing requires | first you have it in your own possession. Here the laws of Heaven and |
| W1:161.12 | one brother, symbol of the rest, and ask salvation of him. See him | first as clearly as you can in that same form to which you are |

| W1:R1.2 | Begin the day by reading the | five ideas, with the comments included. Thereafter, it is not |
| W1:R1.2 | Do this as often as possible during the day. If any one of the | five ideas appeals to you more than the others, concentrate on that |
| W1:67.7 | because your mind is so preoccupied with false self-images. Four or | five times an hour, and perhaps even more, it would be most |
| W1:76.14 | repeat this dedication as often as possible today—at least four or | five times an hour, as well as in response to any temptation to |

| W1:95.4 | The use of the first | five minutes of every waking hour for practicing the idea for the day |
| W1:95.7 | We will therefore keep to the | five minutes an hour practice periods for a while and urge you to |

| W1:96.9 | guaranteed by Him Who speaks to you from your One Self. Our hourly | five minute practicing will be a search for Him within your mind. |

| W1:104.4 | Our longer practice periods today, the hourly | five minutes given truth for your salvation, should begin with this: |
| W1:105.11 | Spend your | five minutes thus with Him each time you can today, but do not think |
| W1:106.11 | Be still and listen to the truth today. For each | five minutes spent in listening, a thousand minds are opened to the |

| W1:110.6 | For your | five minute practice periods, begin with this quotation from the text: |
| W1:R3.5 | The format you should use for these reviews is this: devote | five minutes twice a day, or longer if you would prefer, to |

| W1:R3.8 | first five minutes of the day to your review and also give the last | five minutes of your waking day to it. If this cannot be done, at |
| W1:130.7 | Six times today in thanks and gratitude we gladly give | five minutes to the thought which ends all compromise and doubt and |
| W1:130.8 | it is you seek. You do not want illusions. And you come to these | five minutes emptying your hands of all the petty treasures of this |
| W1:138.11 | We make the choice for Heaven as we wake and spend | five minutes making sure that we have made the one decision that is |
| W1:138.12 | that we have made each hour in between. And now we give the last | five minutes of our waking day to the decision with which we awoke. |
| W1:139.10 | Five minutes in the morning and at night we will devote to dedicate | |
| W1:140.11 | We waken hearing Him and let Him speak to us | five minutes as the day begins and end the day by listening again |
| W1:140.11 | us five minutes as the day begins and end the day by listening again | five minutes more before we go to sleep. Our only preparation is to |
| W1:R4.9 | Five minutes with this thought will be enough to set the day along | |
| W1:152.12 | We think of truth alone as we arise and spend | five minutes practicing its ways, encouraging our frightened minds |

| Tx:25.14 | and unrewarding task you set yourself. Can it make sense to hold the | fixed belief that there is reason to uphold pursuit of what has |
| Tx:25.30 | eyes. And therefore it need not be there in yours. Sin is the | fixed belief perception cannot change. What has been damned is damned |

| W2:233.1 | in vain imaginings. Today I come to You. I will step back and merely | follow You. Be You the Guide and I the follower who questions not the |
| W2:WIW.4 | a new purpose by the One Whom God appointed Savior to the world. | Follow His light and see the world as He beholds it. Hear His Voice |
| W2:258.2 | Our goal is but to | follow in the way that leads to You. We have no goal but this. What |
| W2:298.2 | Father, I come to You today, because I would not | follow any way but Yours. You are beside me. Certain is Your way. And |
| W2:324.1 | always call me back and guide my feet aright. My brothers all can | follow in the way I lead them. Yet I merely follow in the way to You |
| W2:324.1 | My brothers all can follow in the way I lead them. Yet I merely | follow in the way to You as You direct me and would have me go. |
| W2:324.2 | So let us | follow One Who knows the way. We need not tarry, and we cannot stray |
| W2:324.2 | except an instant from His loving hand. We walk together, for we | follow Him. And it is He Who makes the ending sure and guarantees a |
| W2:326.1 | to create like You. And as it is in Heaven, so on earth. Your plan I | follow here, and at the end I know that You will gather Your Effects |
| W2:334.1 | Voice is offering the peace of God to all who hear and choose to | follow Him. This is my choice today. And so I go to find the |

| W2:FL.2 | serving us as gracious guidance in the way to go. Let us together | follow in this way that truth points out to us. And let us be the |
| W2:E.2 | of those whom God has called to Him. Therefore, obey your will and | follow Him Whom you accepted as your Voice, to speak of what you |
| M:I.4 | Everyone who follows the world's curriculum, and everyone here does | follow it until he changes his mind, teaches solely to convince |
| M:4.11 | on trust. Once that has been achieved, the others cannot fail to | follow. Only the trusting can afford honesty, for only they can see |
| M:4.16 | them, making sure no harm can come to them. They hold His gifts and | follow in His way because God's Voice directs them in all things. Joy |
| M:5.7 | with this idea goes also all confusion about creation. Does not this | follow of necessity? Place cause and effect in their true sequence in |
| M:7.2 | it and so used it. Now the teacher of God has only one course to | follow. He must use his reason to tell himself that he has given the |
| M:22.6 | It is in the receiving, then, that healing lies. All else must | follow from this single purpose. |
| M:23.3 | limitation. Would the greatest teacher be unavailable to those who | follow him? |

| Tx:8.86 | There has been a marked tendency on the part of many of the Bible's | followers and also its translators to be entirely literal about fear |

| Tx:1.50 | choice. A guide does not control, but he does direct, leaving the | following up to you. “Lead us not into temptation” means “guide us |

| Tx:1.99 | sorting out the false from the true, the miracle proceeds along the | following lines: |

| Tx:7.107 | for everyone, because He speaks for the Kingdom of God which is joy. | Following Him is therefore the easiest thing in the world and the |
| Tx:8.1 | a way of holding on to deprivation. You cannot reasonably object to | following instructions in a course for knowing on the grounds that |
| Tx:8.21 | either with pain or with joy, depending on which teacher you are | following. He will be imprisoned or released according to your |
| Tx:8.114 | them, for only in this way can you learn how blessed you are. By | following this way, you are looking for the truth in you. This is not |
| Tx:9.6 | this, not because you are being punished for it, but because you are | following the wrong guide and will lose your way. |
| Tx:9.12 | The ego's plan, of course, makes no sense and will not work. By | following it, you will merely place yourself in an impossible |
| Tx:9.29 | than its words. They will convince you that the words are true. By | following the right Guide you will learn the simplest of all lessons— |

| Tx:31.39 | Think not that happiness is ever found by | following a road away from it. This makes no sense and cannot be the |
| W1:16.7 | you are aware of a particular thought which arouses uneasiness. The | following form is suggested for this purpose: |
| W1:37.8 | with a repetition of the idea with your eyes closed and another | following immediately with your eyes open. |
| W1:40.3 | to yourself. One practice period might, for example, consist of the | following: |
| W1:51.1 | The review for today covers the | following ideas: |

| W1:55.1 | Today's review includes the | following: |
| W1:56.1 | Our review for today covers the | following: |
| W1:59.1 | The | following ideas are for review today: |
| W1:71.6 | God's plan for salvation works simply because, by | following His direction, you seek for salvation where it is. But if |

| W1:166.6 | he is feeling them. Yet is he really tragic when you see that he is | following the way he chose and needs but realize Who walks with him |
| W1:I2.1 | which makes it sure that you will give your total willingness to | following the way the course sets forth. |
| W2:I.7 | and certain of Your coming. We have sought to find our way by | following the Guide You sent to us. We did not know the way, but You |
| M:4.2 | in time it can be said that the advanced teachers of God have the | following characteristics: |
| M:29.3 | that lets the memory of love return to you. Do not, then, think that | following the Holy Spirit's guidance is necessary merely because of |
follows (49) | ||
| Tx:1.62 | you first perceive the stimulus and then behave accordingly. It | follows, then, that: |
| Tx:2.66 | not learn any more than it creates. As a learning device, it merely | follows the learner, but if it is falsely endowed with |
| Tx:2.82 | the Atonement as the remedy. These steps can be summarized as | follows: |
| Tx:2.105 | everything that man creates is necessarily a matter of will. It also | follows that whatever he creates is real in his own sight but not |
| Tx:5.33 | of the Holy Spirit shares the property of other ideas, because it | follows the laws of the Universe of which it is a part. Therefore, it |
| Tx:5.61 | believes that this is what you did because it believes it is you. It | follows, then, that if you identify with the ego, you must perceive |
| Tx:5.62 | by you. The classic picture of fear of retaliation from without then | follows because the severity of the guilt is so acute that it must be |
| Tx:6.1 | conclusion that a brother is worthy of attack rather than of love | follows. What can be expected from insane premises except an insane |
| Tx:6.81 | but the second step is easier than the first because it | follows. The very fact that you have accepted that is a demonstration |
| Tx:6.86 | the identification of what is more desirable. This step, which | follows from the second as the second follows from the first, |
| Tx:6.86 | desirable. This step, which follows from the second as the second | follows from the first, emphasizes the dichotomy between the |
| Tx:6.95 | beginning the second step, but I also told you that the third one | follows it. The Holy Spirit will enable you to go on if you follow |
| Tx:8.74 | A more honest statement would be as | follows: Those who want the ego are predisposed to defend it. |
| Tx:9.73 | because you still believe that it can get you something you want. It | follows, then, that you want something other than peace of mind, but |
| Tx:10.11 | your Father are one. God willed to create, and your will is His. It | follows, then, that you will to create since your will follows from |
| Tx:10.11 | is His. It follows, then, that you will to create since your will | follows from His. And being an extension of His Will, yours must be |
| Tx:15.4 | of death, which it craves for you, leaves it unsatisfied. No one who | follows the ego's teaching is without the fear of death. Yet if death |
| Tx:15.60 | in your mind, experiencing not loss, but completion. From this it | follows you can only give. And this is love, for this alone is |
| Tx:16.47 | to interfere with it. This is its idea of Heaven. From this it | follows that union, which is a condition in which the ego cannot |
| Tx:17.25 | from what they are. Only the Thoughts of God are true. And all that | follows from them comes from what they are and is as true as is the |
| Tx:19.5 | Yet the difference in how they operate is less apparent, though it | follows directly from the fundamental difference in what they are. |
| Tx:19.15 | and make lovely what has already been prepared for loveliness. Truth | follows faith and peace, completing the process of making lovely |
| Tx:20.30 | see in him, you see your own. For this you share. What God has given | follows His laws and His alone. Nor is it possible for those who |
| Tx:20.59 | The period of discomfort that | follows the sudden change in a relationship from sin to holiness |
| Tx:21.45 | not that this is madness. For this your reason tells you, and it | follows perfectly from what you have already learned. |
| Tx:23.39 | the belief in sin, the faith in chaos must follow. It is because it | follows that it seems to be a logical conclusion—a valid step in |
| Tx:24.2 | on everything that you believe. It is the outcome of belief and | follows it as surely as does suffering follow guilt and freedom |
| Tx:27.84 | and sad indeed. Yet they but follow. And it is their cause which | follows nothing and is but a jest. |
| Tx:29.15 | in death, with death perceived as life, and living, death. Confusion | follows on confusion here, for on confusion has this world been |
| Tx:31.7 | only two. Each has its outcome in a different world. And each world | follows surely from its source. The certain outcome of the lesson |
| Tx:31.20 | remembering how much we do not know. This brother neither leads nor | follows us but walks beside us on the selfsame road. He is like us, |
| Tx:31.23 | goal, which is but to decide to walk with him, so neither leads nor | follows. Thus it is a way you go together, not alone. And in this |
| W1:9.1 | This idea obviously | follows from the two preceding ones. But while you may be able to |
| W1:18.2 | or four practice periods which are recommended should be done as | follows: |
| W1:24.5 | in its resolution. The form of each application should be roughly as | follows: |
| W1:26.6 | should be spent with each one. Today's idea should be applied as | follows: |
| W1:35.6 | suitable unselected list for applying the idea for today might be as | follows: |
| W1:40.5 | Another might be something as | follows: |
| W1:R1.1 | review. In the practice periods, the exercises should be done as | follows: |
| W1:91.2 | miracle remains unseen. Thus you are convinced it is not there. This | follows from the premises from which the darkness comes. Denial of |
| W1:129.1 | This is the thought which | follows from the one we practiced yesterday. You cannot stop with the |
| W1:134.13 | in all the world which leads to any understanding of the laws it | follows nor the thought which it reflects. It is as alien to the |
| W1:156.1 | is no cause for guilt, and being causeless it does not exist. It | follows surely from the basic thought so often mentioned in the text |
| W1:166.6 | with him, for everyone who comes here has pursued the path he | follows and has felt defeat and hopelessness as he is feeling them. |
| W1:193.17 | Let no one hour cast its shadow on the one that | follows, and when that one goes, let everything that happens in its |
| W2:312.1 | Perception | follows judgment. Having judged, you therefore see what you would |
| M:I.4 | There is no escape from it. How could it be otherwise? Everyone who | follows the world's curriculum, and everyone here does follow it |
| M:4.14 | Harm is the outcome of judgment. It is the dishonest act that | follows a dishonest thought. It is a verdict of guilt upon a brother |
| M:9.2 | own decisions; he asks his Teacher for His answer, and it is this he | follows as his guide for action. This becomes easier and easier as |
folly (7) | ||
| Tx:30.58 | attack. There, it is clear that by attack is understanding lost. The | folly of pursuing guilt as goal is fully recognized. And idols are |
| W1:134.1 | truth. In such a view, forgiveness must be seen as mere eccentric | folly, and this course appear to rest salvation on a whim. |
| W1:135.1 | real, and that his own defense can save himself? And herein lies the | folly of defense—it gives illusions full reality and then attempts |
| W1:136.15 | to any mind that would lay down its arms and cease to play with | folly. It is found at any time—today, if you will choose to |
| W1:153.6 | never be attacked because it recognizes strength so great attack is | folly or a silly game a tired child might play when he becomes too |
| W1:191.4 | denied? You are as God created you. All else but this one thing is | folly to believe. In this one thought is everything set free. In this |
| M:24.1 | worst, it induces inertia in the present. In between many kinds of | folly are possible. |
food (2) | ||
| W1:136.20 | because it is not limited by time, by weather or fatigue, by | food and drink, or any laws you made it serve before. You need do |
| W2:222.1 | me. He is my Source of life, the life within, the air I breathe, the | food by which I am sustained, the water which renews and cleanses me. |
foolish (58) | ||
| Tx:1.96 | Only man makes this kind of mistake. It is an example of the | foolish consistency which his own false beliefs have engendered. |
| Tx:4.2 | of affirming it and are thus dispiriting yourself. Do not embark on | foolish journeys, because they are indeed in vain. The ego may desire |
| Tx:4.3 | The journey to the cross should be the last | foolish journey for every mind. Do not dwell upon it, but dismiss it |
| Tx:4.3 | dismiss it as accomplished. If you can accept it as your own last | foolish journey, you are also free to join my resurrection. Human |
| Tx:4.3 | compulsion. It reenacts the separation, the loss of power, the | foolish journey of the ego in an attempt at reparation, and finally |
| Tx:6.5 | make it stronger. I also told you that the crucifixion was the last | foolish journey that the Sonship need take and that it should mean |
| Tx:11.92 | The journey which the Son of God has set himself is | foolish indeed, but the journey on which his Father sets him is one |
| Tx:12.72 | Whenever you are tempted to undertake a | foolish journey that would lead away from light, remember what you |
| Tx:13.60 | everything. Yet see that this has been your goal and recognize how | foolish it has been. Be glad it is undone, for when you look at it in |
| Tx:16.7 | your “miracle” for this. We once said that if a brother asks a | foolish thing of you, to do it. But be certain that this does not |
| Tx:16.7 | of you, to do it. But be certain that this does not mean to do a | foolish thing that would hurt either him or you, for what would hurt |
| Tx:16.7 | hurt either him or you, for what would hurt one will hurt the other. | Foolish requests are foolish for the simple reason that they conflict |
| Tx:16.7 | for what would hurt one will hurt the other. Foolish requests are | foolish for the simple reason that they conflict because they contain |
| Tx:16.7 | contain an element of specialness. Only the Holy Spirit recognizes | foolish needs as well as real ones. And He will teach you how to meet |
| Tx:16.41 | and let nothing stand in the way of truth. We will take the last | foolish journey away from truth together, and then together we go |
| Tx:21.4 | How | foolish it is to attempt to judge what could be seen instead. It is |
| Tx:24.66 | false ideas you made because it was created not by you. Let not your | foolish fancies frighten you. What is immortal cannot be attacked; |
| Tx:27.19 | love. And love would prove all suffering is but a vain imagining, a | foolish wish with no effects. Your health is a result of your desire |
| Tx:27.59 | because it stands for what is past forgiveness and is true. How | foolish and insane it is to think a miracle is bound by laws which it |
| Tx:27.85 | bring each terrible effect to Him that you may look together on its | foolish cause and laugh with Him a while. You judge effects, but He |
| Tx:31.42 | leads away from Him. A journey from yourself does not exist. How | foolish and insane it is to think that there could be a road with |
| W1:41.6 | of all, try to sink down and inward, away from the world and all the | foolish thoughts of the world. You are trying to reach past all these |
| W1:50.4 | over you like a blanket of protection and surety. Let no idle and | foolish thoughts enter to disturb the holy mind of the Son of God. |
| W1:65.11 | the extent to which you really want salvation in spite of your own | foolish ideas to the contrary. |
| W1:76.10 | There are no laws but God's. Dismiss all | foolish magical beliefs today and hold your mind in silent readiness |
| W1:76.11 | Hear Him Who tells you this, and realize how | foolish are the laws you thought upheld the world you thought you |
| W1:92.2 | your hand, securely bound until you let it go. Yet this is no more | foolish than to believe the body's eyes can see, the brain can think. |
| W1:93.2 | in strange ways—have been deceived, deceiving, and afraid of | foolish fantasies and savage dreams and have bowed down to idols made |
| W1:93.10 | Then put away your | foolish self-images and spend the rest of the practice period in |
| W1:100.9 | Look deep within you, undismayed by all the little thoughts and | foolish goals you pass as you ascend to meet the Christ in you. |
| W1:100.10 | look on Him? What little thought has power to hold you back? What | foolish goal can keep you from success when He Who calls to you is |
| W1:131.10 | what does not exist, while Heaven is the place he cannot find. Leave | foolish thoughts like these behind today, and turn your mind to true |
| W1:131.11 | and we will ask to see the rising of the real world to replace the | foolish images that we held dear, with true ideas arising in the |
| W1:134.11 | to truth. They are not kept to swell and bluster and to terrify the | foolish dreamer who believes in them. He has been gently wakened from |
| W1:135.28 | and celebrate your Eastertime with you. Throughout the day, as | foolish little things appear to raise defensiveness in you and tempt |
| W1:137.16 | give, and to receive the Word of God to take the place of all the | foolish thoughts that ever were imagined. Now we come together to |
| W1:138.11 | for fear to be invested there. Now it is recognized as but a | foolish, trivial mistake. |
| W1:139.13 | holy aim. For several minutes let your mind be cleared of all the | foolish cobwebs which the world would weave around the holy Son of |
| W1:156.6 | laughter is it gone, because its quaint absurdity is seen. It is a | foolish thought, a silly dream, not frightening, ridiculous perhaps, |
| W1:156.7 | Yet you have wasted many, many years on just this | foolish thought. The past is gone with all its fantasies. They keep |
| W1:170.6 | of fear. For love would ask you lay down all defense as merely | foolish. And your arms indeed would crumble into dust. For such they |
| W1:184.14 | them. It is this Name we use in practicing. And through Its use, all | foolish separations disappear which kept us blind. And we are given |
| W1:189.6 | to Which it carries us. For its simplicity avoids the snares the | foolish convolutions of the world's apparent reasoning but serve to |
| W1:193.4 | The One Whom God created to replace the | foolish thoughts which crept into the mind of His most holy Son with |
| W1:196.2 | to understand the truth it uses thus. But you can learn to see these | foolish applications and deny the meaning they appear to have. |
| W1:198.8 | How | foolish to believe that They could die! How foolish to believe you |
| W1:198.8 | How foolish to believe that They could die! How | foolish to believe you can attack! How mad to think that you could be |
| W1:200.3 | and seek no longer what you cannot find. For what could be more | foolish than to seek and seek and seek again for hell, when you have |
| W2:229.2 | untouched and sinless in the midst of all the thoughts of sin my | foolish mind made up. And thanks to You for saving me from them. Amen. |
| W2:240.2 | How | foolish are our fears! Would You allow Your Son to suffer? Give us |
| W2:278.2 | Father, I ask for nothing but the truth. I have had many | foolish thoughts about myself and my creation and have brought a |
| W2:331.1 | How | foolish, Father, to believe Your Son could cause himself to suffer! |
| W2:346.1 | find the peace which You created for Your Son, forgetting all the | foolish toys I made as I behold Your glory and my own. |
| W2:FL.5 | understand that anger is insane, attack is mad, and vengeance merely | foolish fantasy. We have been saved from wrath because we learned we |
| M:4.17 | teacher of God until he fully understands that defenses are but the | foolish guardians of mad illusions. The more grotesque the dream, the |
| M:15.4 | meet with lack of appreciation and even contempt, give up these | foolish thoughts. They are too small and meaningless to occupy your |
| M:16.6 | of protecting illusions. And it is this you fear, and only this. How | foolish to be so afraid of nothing! Nothing at all! Your defenses |
| M:29.7 | not wait, for waiting implies time and He is timeless. Forget your | foolish images, your sense of frailty and your fear of harm, your |
foolishly (1) | ||
| Tx:9.2 | him he is right. You do not tell him this verbally if he is speaking | foolishly because he needs correction at another level, since his |
foolishness (8) | ||
| Tx:31.52 | by all your goodness and attacks it so? Let us forget the concept's | foolishness and merely think of this—there are two parts to what |
| W1:41.2 | The idea for today has the power to end all this | foolishness forever. And foolishness it is, despite the serious and |
| W1:41.2 | for today has the power to end all this foolishness forever. And | foolishness it is, despite the serious and tragic forms it may take. |
| W1:153.8 | our true purpose is to save the world, and we would not exchange for | foolishness the endless joy our function offers us. We would not let |
| W1:154.1 | be neither arrogant nor falsely humble. We have gone beyond such | foolishness. We cannot judge ourselves, nor need we do so. These are |
| W1:190.4 | Peace to such | foolishness! The time has come to laugh at such insane ideas. There |
| W1:196.6 | anyone who thinks this thought is true. And he will not perceive its | foolishness nor even see that it is there so that it would be |
| W2:242.1 | the world. And so to try to lead my life alone must be but | foolishness. For there is One Who knows all that is best for me. And |

| Tx:15.89 | love of God for you and the need your creations have to be with you | forever, you would experience the attraction of the eternal. No one |

| Tx:17.79 | you accepted what can never change. And nothing that it needs to be | forever changeless can you now withhold from it. Your release is |
| Tx:18.24 | you sought a blackness so complete that you could hide from truth | forever in complete insanity. What you forgot was simply that God |
| Tx:18.27 | You will succeed only in frightening yourselves. The gift is given | forever, for God Himself received it. You cannot take it back. You |

| Tx:18.95 | Nor is there any need for us to try to speak of what must | forever lie beyond words. We need remember only that whoever attains |
| Tx:18.96 | all learning that everything you learned is meaningless, replaced | forever by the knowledge of love and its one meaning. |
| Tx:18.98 | every perception has been cleansed and purified and finally removed | forever. Forgiveness removes only the untrue, lifting the shadows |
| Tx:19.6 | in the same place. To dedicate yourself to both is to set up a goal | forever impossible to attain, for part of it is sought through the |

| Tx:19.25 | appeal. Sin is an idea of evil that cannot be corrected and will be | forever desirable. As an essential part of what the ego thinks you |
| Tx:19.30 | different. Yet in your mind is One Who knows it is unbroken and | forever changeless. This One can teach you how to look on time |
| Tx:19.33 | If sin were real, it would | forever be beyond the hope of healing. For there would be a power |

| Tx:19.68 | He Who is our home is homeless with us. Is this your will? Would you | forever be a wanderer in search of peace? Would you invest your hope |
| Tx:19.69 | Faith in the eternal is always justified, for the eternal is | forever kind, infinite in its patience, and wholly loving. It will |
| Tx:19.92 | secret bargain made with the ego to keep what lies beyond the veil | forever blotted out and unremembered. Here is your promise never to |

| Tx:19.95 | if you look on this and let the veil be lifted, they will be gone | forever. All of your “friends,” your “protectors,” and your “home” |
| Tx:19.96 | raise your eyes. Yet all that will occur is you will leave the world | forever. This is the reestablishment of your will. Look upon it |
| Tx:20.37 | what was lost. Only in time can anything be lost, and never lost | forever. So do the parts of God's Son gradually join in time, and |
| Tx:20.45 | but there is nothing else. And this is wholly loving and | forever. Yet has the Son of God invented an unholy relationship |
| Tx:20.54 | The Holy Spirit rests within it in the certainty it will endure | forever. Its firm foundation is eternally upheld by truth, and love |
| Tx:20.54 | Arms. Love's arms are open to receive you and give you peace | forever. |
| Tx:21.3 | is unknown to them. They must infer what could be seen from evidence | forever indirect and reconstruct their inferences as they stumble and |
| Tx:21.10 | all. The light expands and covers everything, extending to infinity, | forever shining and with no break or limit anywhere. Within it |
| Tx:21.21 | of God's replacement for his will, a mad revolt against what must | forever be. This is the statement that he has the power to make God |
| Tx:21.64 | choice that he is damned—separate from you and from his Father | forever and without a hope of safe return. You teach him this, and |
| Tx:21.90 | be always yours. Here is the constant peace you could experience | forever. Here is what denial has denied revealed to you. For here the |
| Tx:22.27 | light which reaches it from the bright endless circle that extends | forever is your holy relationship, beloved of God Himself. How still |
| Tx:22.43 | of what they have received. And so they learn that it is theirs | forever. All barriers disappear before their coming, as every |
| Tx:22.48 | of praise to its Creator which every heart throughout the universe | forever sings as one? Which is the stronger? Is it this tiny mouse or |
| Tx:22.53 | of means and end so easily in what God loves and would have free | forever. But be you rather grateful that you can be the means to |
| Tx:22.59 | that He cannot use, but offer Him the tiny gifts He can extend | forever. He will take each one and make of it a potent force for |
| Tx:23.15 | no illusion can invade His home and drive Him out of what He loves | forever. And what He loves must be forever quiet and at peace because |
| Tx:23.15 | drive Him out of what He loves forever. And what He loves must be | forever quiet and at peace because it is His home. And you who are |
| Tx:23.44 | you lose sight of it? It can be kept shining before your vision, | forever clear and never out of sight if you defend it not. |
| Tx:23.54 | the light they love is in awareness, and only love shines upon them | forever. It is their past, their present, and their future always the |
| Tx:23.54 | no touch of doubt can ever mar your certainty? And that will last | forever? |
| Tx:24.3 | smallest gift is not to know love's purpose. Love offers everything | forever. Hold back but one belief, one offering, and love is gone |
| Tx:24.17 | Is it a sacrifice to give up nothing and to receive the love of God | forever? |
| Tx:24.22 | could never be divided and kept separate from what it is and must | forever be. You are your brother's; part of love was not denied to |
| Tx:24.25 | all your misery and the awareness that your plan has failed and will | forever fail to bring you peace and joy of any kind? Through this |
| Tx:24.29 | is safe from its attack, and it is safe from nothing. It will | forever more be unforgiving, for that is what it is—a secret vow |
| Tx:24.29 | God wants for you will never be and that you will oppose His Will | forever. Nor is it possible the two can ever be the same while |
| Tx:24.31 | the depths of hell, you have forgiven Him Whose Will it is you rest | forever in the arms of peace in perfect safety and without the heat |
| Tx:24.51 | that God created has He failed to lay before you lovingly as yours | forever. And no thought within His Mind is absent from your own. It |
| Tx:24.55 | holiness? And where is God Himself but in that part of Him He set | forever in your brother's holiness that you might see the truth about |
| Tx:25.12 | For only thus will you be willing to relinquish it and have it gone | forever. |
| Tx:25.17 | it. Yet God has set His masterpiece within a frame that will endure | forever when yours has crumbled into dust. But think you not the |
| Tx:25.24 | could be sure His sanity went there with him so he could not be lost | forever in the madness of his wish. |
| Tx:25.30 | perception cannot change. What has been damned is damned and damned | forever, being forever unforgivable. If then it is forgiven, sin's |
| Tx:25.30 | change. What has been damned is damned and damned forever, being | forever unforgivable. If then it is forgiven, sin's perception must |
| Tx:25.35 | while, in twisted forms too far away for recognition and are gone | forever. And in the sunlight you will stand in quiet, in innocence, |

| Tx:26.8 | is in Heaven, so must he be eternally and everywhere. He is the same | forever—born again each instant, untouched by time, and far beyond |
| Tx:26.16 | and worth no more than just a tiny sigh before they disappear, to be | forever undone and unremembered. What seemed once to be a special |
| Tx:26.17 | because He knows that everything that is belongs to Him and will | forever be as He created it. Nothing He loves but must be sinless and |
| Tx:26.37 | he really is? The unforgiven is a voice that calls out from a past | forever more gone by. And everything which points to it as real is |
| Tx:26.39 | Love. And how can he be kept in chains long since removed and gone | forever from his mind? |
| Tx:26.50 | because they are reversals of the laws of truth. The laws of truth | forever will be true and cannot be reversed, yet can be seen as |
| Tx:26.52 | Yet the belief that it is real has made some errors seem | forever past the hope of healing and the lasting grounds for hell. If |
| Tx:26.62 | is different, you but deceive yourself. What God calls one will be | forever one, not separate. His Kingdom is united—thus it was |
| Tx:26.64 | Son of God from crucifixion and from hell and death, all glory be | forever. For you have power to save the Son of God because his Father |
| Tx:26.73 | Yet the acceptance of the working out can seem to take | forever. The change of purpose the Holy Spirit brought to your |
| Tx:26.79 | ancient hate has gone, and all the blight and withering have passed | forever from the land where They have come. |
| Tx:26.84 | do God the Father and the Son return to what is Theirs and will | forever be. Now is the Holy Spirit's purpose done. For They have |
| Tx:27.11 | represents. Let it receive the power to represent an endless life, | forever unattacked. And to your brother let its message be, “Behold |
| Tx:27.45 | healed and cannot heal. This does not mean the conflict must be gone | forever from your mind. For if it were, there'd be no need for |
| Tx:27.53 | the instant which love entered in without attack will stay with you | forever. Your healing will be one of its effects, as will your |
| Tx:28.9 | and could never be effects. The miracle reminds you of a Cause | forever present, perfectly untouched by time and interference—never |
| Tx:28.15 | it with Himself. His memory has not gone by and left a stranded Son | forever on a shore where he can glimpse another shore which he can |
| Tx:28.17 | Purity is not confined. It is the nature of the innocent to be | forever uncontained, without a barrier or limitation. Thus is purity |
| Tx:28.53 | rise to cover it with vague, uncertain forms and changing shapes, | forever unsubstantial and unsure. Yet in the gap is nothing. And |
| Tx:28.58 | my mind and yours” has kept God's promise, not his tiny oath to be | forever faithful unto death. And by his healing is his brother healed. |
| Tx:28.59 | his creation did his Father say, “You are beloved of Me and I of you | forever. Be you perfect as Myself, for you can never be apart from |
| Tx:28.66 | no effect. The world will wash away, and yet this house will stand | forever, for its strength lies not within itself alone. It is an ark |
| Tx:28.66 | is an ark of safety, resting on God's promise that His Son is safe | forever in Himself. What gap can interpose itself between the safety |
| Tx:29.31 | place. For your Identity abides in Them, and where They are, | forever must you be. |
| Tx:29.34 | to you. Behold His Son, His perfect gift in whom his Father shines | forever and to whom is all creation given as his own. Because he has |
| Tx:29.41 | cannot be to die. It must be life's extension, that it be as one | forever and forever without end. |
| Tx:29.41 | to die. It must be life's extension, that it be as one forever and | forever without end. |
| Tx:29.57 | slaves of time. Here does the changeless change, the peace of God, | forever given to all living things, give way to chaos, and the Son of |
| Tx:29.58 | has no place to be. An idol is beyond where God has set all things | forever and has left no room for anything to be except His Will. |
| Tx:29.66 | There is a time when childhood should be passed and gone | forever. Seek not to retain the toys of children. Put them all away, |
| Tx:29.68 | ears, but with the holiness which never left the altar which abides | forever deep within the Son of God. And when he hears this song |
| Tx:30.28 | fear. When this has been achieved, the sorry dream of judgment has | forever been undone. But meanwhile, you have need for practicing the |
| Tx:30.36 | of the universe along with Him. He would but keep your will | forever and forever limitless. |
| Tx:30.36 | the universe along with Him. He would but keep your will forever and | forever limitless. |
| Tx:30.43 | Nothing that God knows not exists. And what He knows exists | forever, changelessly. For thoughts endure as long as does the mind |
| Tx:30.43 | there are no separate parts in what exists within God's Mind. It is | forever one, eternally united and at peace. |
| Tx:30.45 | The Thoughts of God are far beyond all change and shine | forever. They await not birth. They wait for welcome and remembering. |
| Tx:30.46 | knows this light, for He is the eternal sky which holds it safe, | forever lifted up, and anchored sure. Its perfect purity does not |
| Tx:30.54 | wants to be deceived. And you can make a simple choice that will | forever place you far beyond deception. You need not concern yourself |
| Tx:30.64 | everything you need to walk with perfect confidence away from fear | forever and to go straight on and quickly reach the gate of Heaven |
| Tx:30.69 | The Will of God | forever lies in those whose hands are joined. Until they joined, they |
| Tx:30.87 | script which cannot be interpreted with meaning. It must be | forever unintelligible. This is not communication. Your dark dreams |
| Tx:31.15 | and of peace. You see yourself divided into both these roles, | forever split between the two. And every friend or enemy becomes a |
| Tx:31.41 | Yet has He never left His Thoughts to die, without their Source | forever in themselves. He has not left His Thoughts! He could no more |
| Tx:31.47 | and a fear so devastating that the face which smiles above it must | forever look away, lest it perceive the treachery it hides. The |
| Tx:31.65 | the one you made. Your will be done! In Heaven as on earth, this is | forever true. It matters not where you believe you are nor what you |
| Tx:31.73 | which now you hold would guarantee your function here remain | forever unaccomplished and undone. And thus it dooms you to a bitter |
| Tx:31.95 | that they will come to me as You are sure of what they are and will | forever be. They will accept the gift I offer them because You gave |
| W1:41.2 | The idea for today has the power to end all this foolishness | forever. And foolishness it is, despite the serious and tragic forms |
| W1:43.1 | Without this link with God, perception would have replaced knowledge | forever in your minds. With this link with God, perception will |
| W1:49.2 | identify with the part of your mind where stillness and peace reign | forever. Try to hear God's Voice call to you lovingly, reminding you |
| W1:50.3 | your faith in the Love of God within you, eternal, changeless and | forever unfailing. This is the answer to whatever confronts you |
| W1:50.4 | Heaven. Such is the resting place where your Father has placed you | forever. |
| W1:56.5 | the Will of my Father. God is still everywhere and in everything | forever. And we who are part of Him will yet look past all |
| W1:56.6 | thoughts of separation and attack, is the knowledge that all is one | forever. I have not lost the knowledge of who I am because I have |
| W1:57.3 | in this belief, which I no longer want. The Son of God must be | forever free. He is as God created him, and not what I would make of |
| W1:58.6 | directs me in all things. His care for me is infinite and is with me | forever. I am eternally blessed as His Son. |
| W1:73.9 | with an illusion of strength. Today let your will be done. And end | forever the insane belief that it is hell in place of Heaven that you |
| W1:75.11 | what you see will be so welcome that you will gladly extend today | forever. Say, then: |
| W1:76.2 | we will be glad you cannot prove it. For if you could, you would | forever seek where it is not and never find it. The idea for today |
| W1:76.7 | we would hide. We realize instead it is a truth which keeps us free | forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of God set free. The light has |
| W1:76.10 | substitutes, and nothing is replaced by something else. God's laws | forever give and never take. |
| W1:76.12 | us, as well as of the joys of Heaven which His laws keep limitless | forever. We will repeat today's idea until we have listened and |
| W1:92.8 | comes again. The light of strength is constant, sure as love, | forever glad to give itself away because it cannot give but to |
| W1:93.7 | unalterable. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. You are and will | forever be exactly as you were created. Light and joy and peace abide |
| W1:94.1 | and all the thoughts that this world ever held are wiped away | forever by this one idea. Here is salvation accomplished. Here is |
| W1:95.18 | sinless as its Creator, with His strength within you and His love | forever yours. You are One Self, and it is given you to feel this |
| W1:96.3 | nor can your Self be split in two and still be what it is and must | forever be. |
| W1:99.4 | the separated mind and thoughts with Mind and thought which are | forever one? What plan could hold the truth inviolate, yet recognize |
| W1:99.16 | for today which has the power to remove all forms of doubt and fear | forever from your mind. If you are tempted to believe them true, |
| W1:105.5 | itself fulfill its aim of giving everything it has away, securing it | forever for itself. |
| W1:106.4 | not fade when dreaming ends. They end the dream instead and last | forever, for they come from God to His dear Son, whose other name is |
| W1:106.7 | is yours, and everything is given away, it will remain with you | forever. And the lesson has been learned. |
| W1:107.4 | and they are nowhere. They cannot be found, for truth is everywhere | forever now. |
| W1:108.1 | it will appear instead, to take its place. And now we are at peace | forever, for the dream is over now. |
| W1:110.8 | the Son of God and brother to the world—the savior who has been | forever saved, with power to save whoever touches Him however |
| W1:112.3 | [94] I am as God created me. I will remain | forever as I was, Created by the Changeless like Himself. And I am |
| W1:114.3 | accept the Word of God, Who has created me, for what I am and will | forever be? |
| W1:122.8 | eyes and fill your heart with deep tranquility as ancient truths, | forever newly born, arise in your awareness. What you will remember |
| W1:123.3 | Give thanks that He has not abandoned you and that His Love | forever will remain shining on you, forever without change. Give |
| W1:123.3 | abandoned you and that His Love forever will remain shining on you, | forever without change. Give thanks as well that you are changeless, |
| W1:125.2 | God is free to save himself, given the Word of God to be his Guide, | forever in his mind and at his side to lead him surely to his |
| W1:125.2 | his side to lead him surely to his Father's house by his own will, | forever free as God's. He is not led by force, but only love. He is |
| W1:125.4 | throne of God today, the quiet place within the mind where He abides | forever in the holiness which He created and will never leave. |
| W1:127.3 | one, the link between the Father and the Son which holds them both | forever as the same. |
| W1:129.3 | find a world instead where losing is impossible, where love endures | forever, hate cannot exist, and vengeance has no meaning? Is it loss |
| W1:131.9 | Could he lose what the Eternal Will has given him to be his home | forever? Let us not try longer to impose an alien will upon God's |
| W1:133.7 | First, if you choose a thing that will not last | forever, what you chose is valueless. A temporary value is without |
| W1:137.4 | always was the simple truth and always will remain exactly as it has | forever been. Yet eyes accustomed to illusions must be shown that |
| W1:137.8 | were walled off within a body free to join with other minds, to be | forever strong. |
| W1:139.7 | can be asked of you, for what you are is certain. It is set | forever in the holy Mind of God and in your own. It is so far beyond |
| W1:140.6 | It is merely an appeal to truth which cannot fail to heal and heal | forever. It is not a thought which judges an illusion by its size, |
| W1:R4.4 | of forgiveness blocks this thought from his awareness. Yet it is | forever true. |
| W1:R4.12 | His gratitude surrounds you in the peace wherein He wills you be | forever and are learning now to claim again as your inheritance. |
| W1:153.13 | the toys of guilt and lock our quaint and childish thoughts of sin | forever from the pure and holy minds of Heaven's children and the Son |
| W1:158.1 | The knowledge that you are a mind, in Mind and purely mind, sinless | forever, wholly unafraid because you were created out of Love. Nor |
| W1:160.8 | Who He knows to be His Son belongs where He has set His Son | forever. He has answered you who ask, “Who is the stranger?” Hear His |
| W1:160.8 | is your Creator stranger made to you. Whom God has joined remains | forever one, at home in Him, no stranger to Himself. |
| W1:163.9 | with You and with all living things, to be like You and part of You | forever. We accept Your thoughts as ours, and our will is one with |
| W1:164.1 | is. And so today, this instant, now, we come to look upon what is | forever there—not in our sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks |
| W1:165.6 | lies there and nowhere else. Would God consent to let His Son remain | forever starved by his denial of the nourishment he needs to live? |
| W1:167.8 | them. The thought of death is not the opposite to thoughts of life. | Forever unopposed by opposites of any kind, the thoughts of God |
| W1:167.8 | unopposed by opposites of any kind, the thoughts of God remain | forever changeless with the power to extend forever changelessly but |
| W1:167.8 | thoughts of God remain forever changeless with the power to extend | forever changelessly but yet within Themselves, for They are |
| W1:167.11 | home we strive to keep today, as He established it and wills it be | forever and forever. He is Lord of what we think today. And in His |
| W1:167.11 | to keep today, as He established it and wills it be forever and | forever. He is Lord of what we think today. And in His thoughts, |
| W1:167.12 | minds which He created perfect. As we were, so are we now and will | forever be. A sleeping mind must waken as it sees its own perfection |
| W1:168.1 | is no certainty but this, yet this suffices. He will love His Son | forever. When his mind remains asleep, He loves him still. And when |
| W1:168.2 | of His Love, hope and despair would be impossible, for hope would be | forever satisfied; despair of any kind unthinkable. His grace His |
| W1:169.8 | revelation is entirely irrelevant to what must be a constant state, | forever as it always was; forever to remain as it is now. We merely |
| W1:169.8 | to what must be a constant state, forever as it always was; | forever to remain as it is now. We merely take the part assigned long |
| W1:169.12 | instant back to bless the world? How could you finally attain to it | forever while a part of you remains outside, unknowing, unawakened, |
| W1:170.13 | belongs to God and echoes His. And now your heart remains at peace | forever. You have chosen Him in place of idols, and your attributes, |
| W1:R5.12 | as time, and older still. Hallowed your name. Your glory undefiled | forever. And your wholeness now complete, as God established it. You |
| W1:182.4 | here. This Childhood is eternal, with an innocence that will endure | forever. Where this Child shall go is holy ground. It is His holiness |
| W1:183.11 | He makes his claim to all his Father gave, is giving still, and will | forever give. He calls on Him to let all things he thought he made be |
| W1:184.9 | were asked to go beyond all symbols of the world, forgetting them | forever; yet were asked to take a teaching function. You have need to |
| W1:185.9 | Yet will God's peace come just as certainly and to remain with you | forever. It will not be gone with every twist and turning of the road |
| W1:187.9 | take away all thought of form and leave instead the perfect gift | forever there, forever to increase, forever yours, forever given away. |
| W1:187.9 | thought of form and leave instead the perfect gift forever there, | forever to increase, forever yours, forever given away. |
| W1:187.9 | leave instead the perfect gift forever there, forever to increase, | forever yours, forever given away. |
| W1:187.9 | the perfect gift forever there, forever to increase, forever yours, | forever given away. |
| W1:188.3 | caress each living thing and leave a blessing with it which remains | forever and forever. What it gives must be eternal. It removes all |
| W1:188.3 | living thing and leave a blessing with it which remains forever and | forever. What it gives must be eternal. It removes all thoughts of |
| W1:189.8 | interposed between the Son and God the Father to be quietly removed | forever. God will do His part in joyful and immediate response. Ask |
| W1:190.6 | is radiant in this holy joy, unchanged, unchanging, and unchangeable | forever and forever. And would you deny a little corner of your mind |
| W1:190.6 | this holy joy, unchanged, unchanging, and unchangeable forever and | forever. And would you deny a little corner of your mind its own |
| W1:191.4 | all illusions gone. In this one fact is sinlessness proclaimed to be | forever part of everything, the central core of its existence, and |
| W1:192.1 | you complete Himself and that your Self shall be His sacred Son, | forever pure as He, of love created and in love preserved, extending |
| W1:192.1 | created and in love preserved, extending love, creating in its name, | forever one with God and with your Self. Yet what can such a function |
| W1:193.1 | the happiness His Son inherited of Him be undisturbed, eternal and | forever gaining scope, eternally expanding in the joy of full |
| W1:193.2 | Who answers what His Son would contradict and keeps his sinlessness | forever safe. |
| W1:193.7 | is so simple that it cannot be rejected in the end. No one can hide | forever from a truth so very obvious that it appears in countless |
| W1:196.12 | help you reach that instant and to go beyond it quickly, surely, and | forever. When the fear of God is gone, there are no obstacles that |
| W1:197.3 | they be a lasting offering of a thankful heart released from hell | forever. Is it this you would undo by taking back your gifts because |
| W1:197.5 | never realize His gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, | forever giving out, extending love, and adding to your never-ending |
| W1:197.7 | And with the end of this belief is fear | forever over. Thank your Self for this, for He is grateful only unto |
| W1:198.13 | ever thought you made completely vanished from the mind which God | forever knows to be His only Son. |
| W1:198.14 | itself, you see the vision of yourself and then you disappear | forever into God. |
| W1:199.2 | The mind that serves the Holy Spirit is unlimited | forever, in all ways, beyond the laws of time and space, unbound by |
| W1:199.8 | You are God's Son. In immortality you live | forever. Would you not return your mind to this? Then practice well |
| W1:200.9 | our footsteps. He will not desert His Son in need, nor let him stray | forever from his home. The Father calls; the Son will hear. And that |
| W1:200.1 | and God, my Father, One Creator of the whole that is my Self, | forever one with me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as |
| W1:204.1 | unbound by laws which rule the world of sick illusions, free in God, | forever and forever one with Him. I am not a body. I am free. For I |
| W1:204.1 | which rule the world of sick illusions, free in God, forever and | forever one with Him. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as |
| W1:219.1 | then return to earth without confusion as to what my Father loves | forever as His Son. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W2:227.1 | them up and lay them down before the feet of truth, to be removed | forever from my mind. This is my holy instant of release. Father, I |
| W2:230.1 | merciful is God my Father, that when He created me He gave me peace | forever. Now I ask but to be what I am. And can this be denied me, |
| W2:230.1 | Now I ask but to be what I am. And can this be denied me, when it is | forever so? |
| W2:234.1 | there was no lapse in continuity nor break in thoughts which are | forever unified as one. Nothing has ever happened to disturb the |
| W2:235.1 | remember that His Love surrounds His Son and keeps his sinlessness | forever perfect to be sure that I am saved and safe forever in His |
| W2:235.1 | his sinlessness forever perfect to be sure that I am saved and safe | forever in His arms. I am the Son He loves. And I am saved because |
| W2:235.2 | Your holiness is mine. Your Love created me and made my sinlessness | forever part of You. I have no guilt or sin in me, for there is none |
| W2:239.1 | And can it be that we are not among them when He loves His Son | forever and with perfect constancy, knowing he is as He created him? |
| W2:239.2 | We thank You, Father, for the light that shines | forever in us. And we honor it because You share it with us. We are |
| W2:244.2 | For what can come to threaten God Himself or make afraid what will | forever be a part of Him? |
| W2:WIS.3 | the Son He loves, with but corruption to complete Himself, His Will | forever overcome by death, love slain by hate, and peace to be no |
| W2:255.1 | truth of what He says. God's Son can have no cares and must remain | forever in the peace of Heaven. In his name I give today to finding |
| W2:267.1 | of God, directed by His Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held | forever quiet and at peace within His loving arms. Each heartbeat |
| W2:268.1 | as You created me. In Love was I created, and in Love will I remain | forever. What can frighten me when I let all things be exactly as |
| W2:270.1 | waits expectantly the one remaining instant more of time, which ends | forever as Your memory returns to him. And now his will is one with |
| W2:WIC.1 | nor lost the innocence in which He was created. He abides unchanged | forever in the Mind of God. |
| W2:WIC.2 | that separation is no more than an illusion of despair. For hope | forever will abide in Him. Your mind is part of His and His of yours. |
| W2:272.1 | accept no less than You have given me. I am surrounded by Your Love, | forever still, forever gentle, and forever safe. God's Son must be as |
| W2:272.1 | than You have given me. I am surrounded by Your Love, forever still, | forever gentle, and forever safe. God's Son must be as You created |
| W2:272.1 | me. I am surrounded by Your Love, forever still, forever gentle, and | forever safe. God's Son must be as You created him. |

| M:5.7 | With this idea is pain | forever gone. But with this idea goes also all confusion about |
| M:12.1 | limitless. And being limitless, His Thoughts are joined with God's | forever and ever. His perception of Himself is based upon God's |
| M:12.1 | God's Will and bring His Thoughts to still deluded minds. He is | forever One, because He is as God created Him. He has accepted |
| M:13.3 | Now has the mind condemned itself to seek without finding, to be | forever dissatisfied and discontented, to know not what it really |
| M:14.1 | will cover it, hiding all evil, concealing all sin, and ending guilt | forever. So ends the world that guilt had made, for now it has no |
| M:15.1 | Indeed yes! No one can escape God's Final Judgment. Who could flee | forever from the truth? But the Final Judgment will not come until it |
| M:15.2 | Holy are you, eternal, free, and whole, at peace | forever in the Heart of God. Where is the world and where is sorrow |
| M:17.9 | But His love is Cause of everything beyond all fear and thus | forever real and always true. |
| M:18.4 | has reality been taken from its throne by your mistakes. God reigns | forever, and His laws alone prevail upon you and upon the world. His |
| M:19.1 | be no need for salvation. The thought of separation would have been | forever inconceivable. |
| M:19.3 | has no place in such a scheme, for not one “sin” but seems | forever true. |
| M:19.4 | fragments must decay and die, but wholeness is immortal. It remains | forever and forever like its Creator, being one with Him. God's |
| M:19.4 | decay and die, but wholeness is immortal. It remains forever and | forever like its Creator, being one with Him. God's Judgment is His |
| M:22.7 | can he say with God, “This is my beloved Son, created perfect and | forever so.” |
| M:27.7 | but this: the realization that the Son of God is guiltless now and | forever. Nothing but this. But do not let yourself forget it is not |
| M:28.5 | His holiness as ours, as it is. As God created us, so will we be | forever and forever, and we wish for nothing but His Will to be our |
| M:28.5 | as ours, as it is. As God created us, so will we be forever and | forever, and we wish for nothing but His Will to be our own. |

| Tx:26.38 | Forget the time of terror that has been so long ago corrected and | |
| Tx:26.78 | all your sins and left without a single one you cherish still? | Forget not that a shadow held between your brother and yourself |
| Tx:27.4 | represents your brother's guilt—the witness which you send lest he | forget the injuries he gave from which you swear he never will |
| Tx:27.49 | needs one lesson which has perfectly been learned. And then when you | forget it will the world remind you gently of what you have taught. |
| Tx:27.67 | play in salvaging the world from condemnation is your own escape. | Forget not that the witness to the world of evil cannot speak except |

| Tx:30.48 | than one. An idol or the Thought God holds of you is your reality. | Forget not, then, that idols must keep hidden what you are, not from |
| Tx:30.49 | and so still in loving gentleness, were you aware of it you would | forget defensiveness entirely and rush to its embrace. The truth |

| Tx:31.12 | Let us be still an instant and | forget all things we ever learned, all thoughts we had, and every |
| Tx:31.21 | Who calls to you. Be still and listen. Think not ancient thoughts. | Forget the dismal lessons that you learned about this Son of God who |
| Tx:31.23 | step back and falling back when he would go ahead? For so do you | forget the journey's goal, which is but to decide to walk with him, |
| Tx:31.42 | your own reality at one with you? Forgive yourself your madness and | forget all senseless journeys and all goal-less aims. They have no |
| Tx:31.52 | And who is deceived by all your goodness and attacks it so? Let us | forget the concept's foolishness and merely think of this—there are |
| Tx:31.66 | that you can choose to see the Son of God as you would have him be, | forget not that no concept of yourself will stand against the truth |
| Tx:31.93 | a vision of a different world, so new and clean and fresh you will | forget the pain and sorrow that you saw before. Yet this a vision is |
| W1:19.5 | day, although it will occasionally be included as a reminder. Do not | forget, however, that random selection of subjects for all practice |
| W1:20.5 | attempting to do so every half hour. Do not be distressed if you | forget to do so, but make a real effort to remember. The extra |
| W1:40.1 | attempt this schedule and to adhere to it whenever possible. If you | forget, try again. If there are long interruptions, try again. |
| W1:44.10 | without limit, as you pass by the thoughts of this world. And do not | forget that they cannot hold you to the world unless you give them |

| W1:49.5 | Do not | forget to repeat today's idea very frequently. Do so with your eyes |
| W1:60.3 | of His strength in me. And I begin to remember the love I chose to | forget, but Which has not forgotten me. |
| W1:63.2 | no trivial purpose or meaningless desire in its place or you will | forget your function and leave the Son of God in hell. This is no |

| W1:82.5 | [64] Let me not forget my function. I would not | forget my function because I would remember my Self. I cannot fulfill |
| W1:95.5 | unless you are reminded of your purpose frequently, you tend to | forget about it for long periods of time. You often fail to remember |
| W1:95.19 | Do not | forget today. We need your help, your little part in bringing |
| W1:95.19 | today. Share, then, its surety, for it is yours. Be vigilant. Do not | forget today. |
| W1:95.20 | Throughout the day do not | forget your goal. Repeat today's idea as frequently as possible and |
| W1:97.7 | light remain, and leads you out of darkness, nor will you be able to | forget the way again. |
| W1:98.12 | for the glad time to come to you again. Repeat it often, and do not | forget each time you do so, you have let your mind be readied for the |
| W1:100.11 | Do not | forget the idea for today between your longer practice periods. It is |
| W1:106.12 | world what giving means by listening and learning it of Him. Do not | forget today to reinforce your choice to hear and to receive the Word |
| W1:107.15 | Do not | forget your function for today. Each time you tell yourself with |
| W1:R3.13 | use each hour and the one to be applied on each half hour as well. | Forget them not. This second chance with each of these ideas will |

| W1:R3.14 | Do not forget how little you have learned. Do not | forget how much you can learn now. Do not forget your Father's need |
| W1:R3.14 | you have learned. Do not forget how much you can learn now. Do not | forget your Father's need of you as you review these thoughts He gave |
| W1:121.13 | Do not | forget throughout the day the role forgiveness plays in bringing |
| W1:126.11 | value to yourself and all your brothers. Do not let your mind | forget this goal for long, but tell yourself: |
| W1:131.16 | you in the light reflects the truth you knew and did not quite | forget in wandering away in dreams. |
| W1:131.18 | Itself to be a time of grace for you and for the world. If you | forget this happy fact, remind yourself with this: |
| W1:134.19 | practiced through the day, for there will be so many times when you | forget its meaning and attack yourself. When this occurs, allow your |
| W1:136.4 | done unconsciously. But afterwards your plan requires that you must | forget you made it, so it seems to be external to your own intent—a |
| W1:139.8 | come to reinforce the madness which we once believed in. Let us not | forget the goal that we accepted. It is more than just our happiness |
| W1:153.16 | be the most that we can offer as the hour strikes. Sometimes we will | forget. At other times the business of the world will close on us, |
| W1:155.13 | elsewhere. Dreams are not a worthy guide for you who are God's Son. | Forget not He has placed His hand in yours and given you your |
| W1:160.10 | Not one does He | forget. Not one He fails to give you to remember that your home may |
| W1:R5.3 | practicing to You. And if we stumble, You will raise us up. If we | forget the way, we count upon Your sure remembering. We wander off, |
| W1:R5.3 | we count upon Your sure remembering. We wander off, but You will not | forget to call us back. Quicken our footsteps now, that we may walk |
| W1:183.4 | thing before God's Name. Repeat His Name and see how easily you will | forget the names of all the gods you value. They have lost the name |
| W1:184.10 | phase—a prison house from which you go into the sunlight and | forget the darkness. Here you understand the Word, the Name Which God |
| W1:184.11 | as your reality. The Holy Spirit uses all of them, but He does not | forget Creation has One Name, One Meaning, and a single Source Which |
| W1:184.11 | the names the world bestows on them but for convenience, yet do not | forget they share the Name of God along with you. |
| W1:185.8 | the dreams you cherish still. What do you ask for in your heart? | Forget the words you use in making your requests. Consider but what |
| W1:187.6 | Never | forget you give but to yourself. Who understands what giving means |
| W1:189.5 | you see? The choice is given you. But learn and do not let your mind | forget this law of seeing: you will look upon that which you feel |
| W1:189.7 | has taught nor one belief you ever learned before from anything. | Forget this world, forget this course, and come with wholly empty |
| W1:189.7 | one belief you ever learned before from anything. Forget this world, | forget this course, and come with wholly empty hands unto your God. |
| W1:193.10 | them rightly when you hold these words in full awareness, and do not | forget these words apply to everything you see or any brother looks |
| W1:193.12 | His Son does not remember who he is. And God would have him not | forget His Love and all the gifts His Love brings with it. Would you |
| W1:194.9 | hands we rest untroubled, sure that only good can come to us. If we | forget, we will be gently reassured. If we accept an unforgiving |
| W1:198.11 | Do not | forget today that there can be no form of suffering that fails to |
| W1:R6.6 | to the serenity and peace of God. We merely close our eyes and then | forget all that we thought we knew and understood. For thus is |
| W1:R6.11 | Let us offer Him the whole review we now begin, and let us also not | forget to Whom it has been given as we practice day by day, advancing |
| W1:213.1 | the way I am set free. And so I choose to learn His lessons and | forget my own. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W2:I.2 | as much as we will need for the result that we desire. Nor will we | forget our hourly remembrance in between, calling to God when we have |
| W2:I.2 | calling to God when we have need of Him as we are tempted to | forget our goal. |
| W2:I.7 | the Guide You sent to us. We did not know the way, but You did not | forget us. And we know that You will not forget us now. We ask but |
| W2:I.7 | the way, but You did not forget us. And we know that You will not | forget us now. We ask but that Your ancient promises be kept which |

| M:16.8 | will return to earlier attempts to place reliance on himself alone. | Forget not this is magic and that magic is a sorry substitute for |

| Tx:5.57 | but the power to create is of God. Therefore, those who have been | forgiven must devote themselves first to healing, because having |
| Tx:9.7 | you forgives all things in you and in your brother. His errors are | forgiven with yours. Atonement is no more separate than love. |
| Tx:9.8 | will then not be real to you, and all your errors will be | forgiven. |
| Tx:9.14 | also believe that you must undo what you have made in order to be | forgiven. What has no effect does not exist, and to the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:13.88 | He knows not cannot be and therefore cannot be given. Ask not to be | forgiven, for this has already been accomplished. Ask, rather, to |
| Tx:16.78 | There is nothing you can hold against reality. All that must be | forgiven are the illusions you have held against your brothers. Their |
| Tx:16.78 | your brothers. Their reality has no past, and only illusions can be | forgiven. God holds nothing against anyone, for He is incapable of |
| Tx:16.78 | which you perceive in them. Thus will you learn that you have been | forgiven, for it is you who offered them illusions. In the holy |
| Tx:16.80 | and find his message in the holy instant, where all illusions are | forgiven. From there the miracle extends to bless everyone and to |
| Tx:17.1 | his own imagining. His reality is forever sinless. He need not be | forgiven, but awakened. In his dreams he has betrayed himself, his |
| Tx:17.8 | under the open sun. Nothing is hidden here, for everything has been | forgiven, and there are no fantasies to hide the truth. The bridge |
| Tx:17.12 | of wonder and a blade of grass a sign of God's perfection. From the | forgiven world, the Son of God is lifted easily into his home. And |
| Tx:18.42 | a little willingness to let Him remove all fear and hatred and to be | forgiven. On your little faith, joined with His understanding, He |
| Tx:18.93 | is seen anew, without the shadow of guilt upon it. Here are you | forgiven, for here you have forgiven everyone. Here is the new |
| Tx:18.93 | shadow of guilt upon it. Here are you forgiven, for here you have | forgiven everyone. Here is the new perception, where everything is |
| Tx:18.94 | different. Here is the Source of light—nothing perceived, | forgiven, nor transformed, but merely known. |
| Tx:19.12 | But through the eyes of faith, the Son of God is seen already | forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid upon himself. Faith sees him |
| Tx:19.56 | I am made welcome in the state of grace, which means you have at last | forgiven me. For I became the symbol of your sin, and so I had to die |
| Tx:20.8 | I have great need for lilies, for the Son of God has not | forgiven me. And can I offer him forgiveness when he offers thorns to |
| Tx:20.8 | and who is whole without him? Be you his friend for me that I may be | forgiven and you may look upon the Son of God as whole. But look you |
| Tx:20.10 | This Easter look with different eyes upon each other. You have | forgiven me. And yet I cannot use your gift of lilies while you see |
| Tx:22.1 | cannot understand. Brothers, it is the same, made by the same, and | forgiven for its maker in the same way. |
| Tx:24.26 | Forgiveness is the end of specialness. Only illusions can be | forgiven, and then they disappear. Forgiveness is release from all |
| Tx:24.26 | that he gave it so. And thus his secret guilt would disappear, | forgiven by himself. |
| Tx:24.31 | if you would release your brother from the depths of hell, you have | forgiven Him Whose Will it is you rest forever in the arms of peace |
| Tx:25.30 | damned and damned forever, being forever unforgivable. If then it is | forgiven, sin's perception must have been wrong. And thus is change |
| Tx:25.40 | an equal strength to save the other and save himself along with him. | Forgiven by you, your savior offers you salvation. Condemned by you, |
| Tx:26.25 | he has believed in sin and still believes that he has much to be | forgiven. Forgiveness thus becomes the means by which he learns he |
| Tx:26.26 | no sadness, and there is no parting here, for everything is totally | forgiven. And what has been forgiven must join, for nothing stands |
| Tx:26.26 | parting here, for everything is totally forgiven. And what has been | forgiven must join, for nothing stands between to keep them separate |
| Tx:26.78 | a little trust for him who carries Christ to you, that you may be | forgiven all your sins and left without a single one you cherish |
| Tx:27.17 | unto you. So does your healing show your mind is healed and has | forgiven what he did not do. And so is he convinced his innocence was |
| Tx:29.36 | not your enemy in hate. A dream is given you in which you have | forgiven him for all his dreams of death—a dream of hope you share |
| Tx:30.37 | that you are free. But you will not forgive the world until you have | forgiven Him Who gave your will to you. For it is by your will the |
| Tx:30.37 | and because you have decided with him, he is healed. And now is God | forgiven, for you chose to look upon your brother as a friend. |
| Tx:30.57 | they really are. And it is recognized that all things must be first | forgiven, and then understood. |
| Tx:30.74 | to overlook illusions. This is how you learn that you must be | forgiven too. There can be no appearance that can not be overlooked. |
| Tx:31.27 | Why should his sins be sins if you did not believe they could not be | forgiven in you? Why are they real in him if you did not believe that |
| Tx:31.66 | sight. Do you forgive? Then is the world forgiving, for you have | forgiven it its trespasses and so it looks on you with eyes that see |
| Tx:31.69 | of yourself is wholly changed. Your “evil” thoughts have been | forgiven with his, because you let them all affect you not. No longer |

| W1:99.1 | something has gone wrong—something you need to be saved from or | forgiven for, something amiss that needs corrective change, something |

| W1:158.9 | Thus are his sins | forgiven him, for Christ has vision which has power to overlook them |
| W1:158.10 | in sin, so must you be; if you see light in him, your sins have been | forgiven by yourself. Each brother whom you meet today provides |
| W1:159.10 | in the way He has established. Christ has dreamed the dream of a | forgiven world. It is His gift whereby a sweet transition can be made |
| W1:164.7 | but increase our joy because its holiness reflects our own. We stand | forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the world forgiven in our |

| Tx:22.41 | thankful will they be to see you come among them, offering Christ's | forgiveness to dispel their faith in sin. |
| Tx:22.57 | When you have looked upon each other with complete | forgiveness from which no error is excluded and nothing kept hidden |
| Tx:22.59 | to look on what your Father loves with charity? Extension of | forgiveness is the Holy Spirit's function. Leave this to Him. Let |
| Tx:23.6 | in it. So will you come to understand all that is given you. In kind | forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and everything you once |

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

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

| Tx:25.21 | cannot separate yourself from him nor from his Father. You need no | forgiveness, for the wholly pure have never sinned. Give then what He |

| Tx:25.47 | he learns the gift was given to himself, and so they must be one. | Forgiveness is the only function meaningful in time. It is the means |
| Tx:25.47 | Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness from sin into salvation. | Forgiveness is for all. But when it rests on all, it is complete and |
| Tx:25.85 | can never be received because another could receive it not. Only | forgiveness offers miracles. And pardon must be just to everyone. |
| Tx:25.86 | with vengeance justified and mercy lost, condemns you as unworthy of | forgiveness. The unforgiven have no mercy to bestow upon another. |
| Tx:25.86 | upon another. That is why your sole responsibility must be to take | forgiveness for yourself. The miracle that you receive, you give. |
| Tx:26.25 | Forgiveness is this world's equivalent of Heaven's justice. It | |
| Tx:26.25 | total lack of limits lies. Nothing in boundless love could need | forgiveness. And what is charity within the world gives way to simple |

| Tx:26.25 | becomes the means by which he learns he has done nothing to forgive. | Forgiveness always rests upon the one who offers it until he sees |

| Tx:26.53 | Son where sin was thought to rule. Perhaps you do not see the role | forgiveness plays in ending death and all beliefs that rise from |
| Tx:26.54 | this symbol represents is but your wish to be apart and separate. | Forgiveness takes away what stands between your brother and yourself. |
| Tx:26.56 | the world you see with Heaven, wholly perfect and complete. What is | forgiveness but a willingness that truth be true? What can remain |
| Tx:26.64 | laid, for healing is not needed where there is no pain or suffering. | Forgiveness is the answer to attack of any kind. So is attack |
| Tx:26.69 | separate. From this perception you cannot conceive of gaining what | forgiveness offers now. The interval you think lies in between the |
| Tx:26.70 | a little space between you still, you want a little time in which | forgiveness is withheld a little while. This makes the interval |
| Tx:26.70 | a little while. This makes the interval between the time in which | forgiveness is withheld and given seem dangerous, with terror |
| Tx:26.83 | entered in. Your footprints lighten up the world, for where you walk | forgiveness gladly goes with you. No one on earth but offers thanks |
| Tx:27.6 | tear is wiped away in laughter and in love. And he will look on his | forgiveness there and with healed eyes will look beyond it to the |
| Tx:27.14 | consequences must be real because what it has done is there to see. | Forgiveness is not pity which but seeks to pardon what it knows to be |
| Tx:27.14 | what it knows to be the truth. Good cannot be returned for evil, for | forgiveness does not first establish sin and then forgive it. Who can |
| Tx:27.15 | their brothers and themselves as well. For no one in whom true | forgiveness reigns can suffer. He holds not the proof of sin before |
| Tx:27.15 | And thus he must have overlooked it and removed it from his own. | Forgiveness cannot be for one and not the other. Who forgives is |
| Tx:27.16 | Forgiveness is not real unless it brings a healing to your brother | |
| Tx:27.16 | unless his sins have no effect to warrant guilt? Sins are beyond | forgiveness just because they would entail effects which cannot be |
| Tx:27.17 | speak with power greater than a thousand tongues. For here is his | forgiveness proved to him. A miracle can offer nothing less to him |
| Tx:27.22 | of guilt. If you assume correction's role, you lose the function of | forgiveness. No one can forgive until he learns correction is but to |
| Tx:27.28 | Correction must be left to One Who knows correction and | forgiveness are the same. With half a mind, this is not understood. |
| Tx:27.33 | Reality is ultimately known without a form, unpictured and unseen. | Forgiveness is not yet a power known as wholly free of limits. Yet it |
| Tx:27.33 | free of limits. Yet it sets no limits you have chosen to impose. | Forgiveness is the means by which the truth is represented |
| Tx:27.34 | will ultimately take the place of every learning aid will merely be. | Forgiveness vanishes and symbols fade, and nothing which the eyes |
| Tx:27.35 | Yet no other kind can be at all. Give welcome to the Power beyond | forgiveness and beyond the world of symbols and of limitations. He |
| Tx:27.59 | of sin. The miracle forgives because it stands for what is past | forgiveness and is true. How foolish and insane it is to think a |
| Tx:28.35 | And sickness will be seen without a cause. The dream of healing in | forgiveness lies and gently shows you that you never sinned. The |
| Tx:28.48 | And so he cannot be a part of yours, from which you both are free. | Forgiveness separates the dreamer from the evil dream and thus |
| Tx:29.23 | be lifted from your mind. When light has come to him through your | forgiveness, he will not forget his savior, leaving him unsaved. For |
| Tx:29.35 | If you but knew the glorious goal that lies beyond | forgiveness, you would not keep hold on any thought, however light |
| Tx:29.38 | and misery and pain? These questions are the same in different form. | Forgiveness is your peace, for herein lies the end of separation and |
| Tx:29.39 | appointed not his destiny nor set the hour of his birth and death. | Forgiveness will not change him. Yet time waits upon forgiveness that |
| Tx:29.39 | and death. Forgiveness will not change him. Yet time waits upon | forgiveness that the things of time may disappear because they have |
| Tx:29.41 | set in time and change that time might be preserved, excepting one. | Forgiveness does not aim at keeping time but at its ending when it |
| Tx:29.42 | as what you see it for. How lovely is the world whose purpose is | forgiveness of God's Son! How free from fear, how filled with |
| Tx:29.68 | remembers, though he has not heard it since before all time began. | Forgiveness, once complete, brings timelessness so close the song of |
| Tx:30.56 | It asks for nothing in reality. And even in illusions it but asks | forgiveness be the substitute for fear. Such is the only rule for |
| Tx:30.57 | state of mind in which the only purpose of the world is seen to be | forgiveness. Fear is not its goal, and the escape from guilt becomes |
| Tx:30.57 | its goal, and the escape from guilt becomes its aim. The value of | forgiveness is perceived and takes the place of idols which are |
| Tx:30.59 | Not yet is Heaven quite remembered, for the purpose of | forgiveness still remains. Yet everyone is certain he will go beyond |
| Tx:30.59 | forgiveness still remains. Yet everyone is certain he will go beyond | forgiveness, and he but remains until it is made perfect in himself. |
| Tx:30.59 | go with him. For thus is he made ready for the step in which is all | forgiveness left behind. |
| Tx:30.60 | creation and eternity. But fear is gone because its purpose is | forgiveness, not idolatry. And so is Heaven's Son prepared to be |
| Tx:30.62 | And all that stood between your image of yourself and what you are, | forgiveness washes joyfully away. Yet God need not create His Son |
| Tx:30.63 | For He must be unremembered till His Son has reached beyond | forgiveness to the love of God. Yet is the love of Christ accepted |
| Tx:30.70 | real world given in exchange for dreams of terror. For it is on this | forgiveness rests and is but natural. You are not asked to offer |
| Tx:30.71 | you would be asked to sacrifice your rights when you return | forgiveness for attack. But you are merely asked to see forgiveness |
| Tx:30.71 | you return forgiveness for attack. But you are merely asked to see | forgiveness as the natural reaction to distress which rests on error |
| Tx:30.71 | reaction to distress which rests on error and thus calls for help. | Forgiveness is the only sane response. It keeps your rights from |
| Tx:30.72 | have none. The real world is achieved when you perceive the basis of | forgiveness is quite real and fully justified. While you regard it as |
| Tx:30.72 | it must uphold the guilt you would “forgive.” Unjustified | forgiveness is attack. And this is all the world can ever give. It |
| Tx:30.72 | remains aware that they have sinned. And so they do not merit the | forgiveness that it gives. |
| Tx:30.73 | This is the false | forgiveness which the world employs to keep the sense of sin alive. |
| Tx:30.73 | itself. If you can see your brother merits pardon, you have learned | forgiveness is your right as much as his. Nor will you think that God |
| Tx:30.74 | Forgiveness recognized as merited will heal. It gives the miracle its | |
| Tx:30.74 | it would be necessary first there be some sin which stands beyond | forgiveness. There would be an error that is more than a mistake—a |
| Tx:30.75 | than a belief there are some forms of sickness and of joylessness | forgiveness cannot heal. This means that you prefer to keep some |
| Tx:30.75 | are harder to look past than others are. It always means you think | forgiveness must be limited. And you have set a goal of partial |
| Tx:30.75 | a limited escape from guilt for you. What can this be except a false | forgiveness of yourself and everyone who seems apart from you? |
| Tx:30.77 | what is whole can have no missing parts that have been kept outside. | Forgiveness rests on recognizing this and being glad there cannot be |
| Tx:30.88 | lets us speak to all our brothers and to understand with them | forgiveness has been given to us all, and thus we can communicate |
| Tx:31.5 | skill the Holy Spirit sees in all the world. His simple lessons in | forgiveness have a power mightier than yours because they call from |
| Tx:31.17 | death. But if he calls for death or calls for life, for hate or for | forgiveness and for help, is not the same in outcome. Hear the one, |
| Tx:31.48 | eternally. For what you are has now become his sin. For this is no | forgiveness possible. No longer does it matter what he does, for your |
| Tx:31.69 | But should one brother dawn upon your sight as wholly worthy of | forgiveness, then your concept of yourself is wholly changed. Your |
| Tx:31.71 | not perceived to be yourself, it has been given you. For your | forgiveness, offered unto him, has been accepted now for both of you. |
| Tx:31.72 | offered you. Hold out your hand that you may have the gift of kind | forgiveness which you offer one whose need for it is just the same as |
| Tx:31.82 | cannot see until he looks on them with seeing eyes and offers them | forgiveness with his own. Can you to whom God says, “Release My Son!” |
| W1:11.1 | initial form, for in this idea is your release made sure. The key to | forgiveness lies in it. |
| W1:43.9 | I see through the eyes of | forgiveness. I see the world as blessed. The world can show me |
| W1:46.1 | He has never condemned. And there must be condemnation before | forgiveness is necessary. Forgiveness is the great need of this |
| W1:46.1 | And there must be condemnation before forgiveness is necessary. | Forgiveness is the great need of this world, but that is because it |
| W1:46.1 | thus releasing themselves from illusions, while those who withhold | forgiveness are binding themselves to them. As you condemn only |
| W1:46.2 | Although God does not forgive, His love is nevertheless the basis of | forgiveness. Fear condemns, and love forgives. Forgiveness thus |
| W1:46.2 | the basis of forgiveness. Fear condemns, and love forgives. | Forgiveness thus undoes what fear has produced, returning the mind to |
| W1:46.2 | returning the mind to the awareness of God. For this reason, | forgiveness can truly be called salvation. It is the means by which |
| W1:55.4 | else. Without attack thoughts I could not see a world of attack. As | forgiveness allows love to return to my awareness, I will see a world |
| W1:57.6 | within myself. The world I look upon has taken on the light of my | forgiveness and shines forgiveness back at me. In this light, I begin |
| W1:57.6 | I look upon has taken on the light of my forgiveness and shines | forgiveness back at me. In this light, I begin to see what my |
| W1:60.2 | those who have accepted their innocence see nothing to forgive. Yet | forgiveness is the means by which I will recognize my innocence. It |
| W1:60.5 | day. There is not a moment in which God's Voice ceases to call on my | forgiveness to save me. There is not a moment in which His Voice |
| W1:62.1 | It is your | forgiveness that will bring the world of darkness to the light. It is |
| W1:62.1 | that will bring the world of darkness to the light. It is your | forgiveness that lets you recognize the light in which you see. |
| W1:62.1 | your forgiveness that lets you recognize the light in which you see. | Forgiveness is the demonstration that you are the light of the world. |
| W1:62.1 | the demonstration that you are the light of the world. Through your | forgiveness does the truth about yourself return to your memory. |
| W1:62.1 | the truth about yourself return to your memory. Therefore in your | forgiveness lies your salvation. |
| W1:62.2 | Illusions about yourself and the world are one. That is why all | forgiveness is a gift to yourself. Your goal is to find out who you |
| W1:62.2 | how to remember the truth. For this, attack must be replaced by | forgiveness so that thoughts of life may replace thoughts of death. |
| W1:62.3 | strength of Christ in you. Do you not then begin to understand what | forgiveness will do for you? It will remove all sense of weakness, |
| W1:62.6 | Forgiveness is my function as the light of the world. I would fulfill | |
| W1:63.4 | The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my | forgiveness. I am the means God has appointed for the salvation of |
| W1:64.1 | The purpose of the world you see is to obscure your function of | forgiveness and provide you with a justification for forgetting it. |
| W1:64.4 | The world's salvation awaits your | forgiveness, because through it does the Son of God escape from all |
| W1:73.5 | Grievances darken your mind, and you look out on a darkened world. | Forgiveness lifts the darkness, reasserts your will, and lets you |
| W1:75.3 | shadows from the past remain to darken our sight and hide the world | forgiveness offers us. Today we will accept the new world as what we |
| W1:75.4 | practice periods will be devoted to looking at the world which our | forgiveness shows us. This is what we want to see, and only this. Our |
| W1:75.9 | Realize that your | forgiveness entitles you to vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit |
| W1:75.11 | Give thanks for mercy and the Love of God. Rejoice in the power of | forgiveness to heal your sight completely. Be confident that on this |
| W1:78.8 | him a different way and see our savior shining in the light of true | forgiveness given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God and of |
| W1:81.5 | [62] | Forgiveness is my function as the light of the world. It is through |
| W1:81.5 | on my recognizing what my function is, for I do not yet understand | forgiveness. Yet I will trust that in the light I will see it as it |
| W1:81.7 | Let this help me learn what | forgiveness means. Let me not separate my function from my will. I |
| W1:82.2 | [63] The light of the world brings peace to every mind through my | forgiveness. My forgiveness is the means by which the light of the |
| W1:82.2 | of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. My | forgiveness is the means by which the light of the world finds |
| W1:82.2 | by which the light of the world finds expression through me. My | forgiveness is the means by which I become aware of the light of the |
| W1:82.2 | means by which I become aware of the light of the world in me. My | forgiveness is the means by which the world is healed, together with |
| W1:82.4 | [name]. I share the light of the world with you, [name]. Through my | forgiveness I can see this as it is. |
| W1:90.2 | is a miracle. And I invite the solution to come to me through my | forgiveness of the grievance and my welcome of the miracle which |
| W1:92.6 | may bring to all the miracle in which they will unite in purpose and | forgiveness and in love. |
| W1:92.7 | Weakness, which looks in darkness, cannot see a purpose in | forgiveness and in love. It sees all others different from itself and |
| W1:99.1 | Salvation and | forgiveness are the same. They both imply that something has gone |
| W1:99.2 | for both have happened. The impossible becomes the thing you need | forgiveness for, salvation from. Salvation is the borderland between |
| W1:99.13 | Salvation is my only function here. Salvation and | forgiveness are the same. |
| W1:99.15 | that is not of God. Forgive yourself the one you think you made. | Forgiveness and salvation are the same. Forgive what you have made, |
| W1:99.20 | Thus do you lay | forgiveness on your mind and let all fear be gently laid aside that |
| W1:121.4 | parody of life. It wants to live, yet wishes it were dead. It wants | forgiveness, yet it sees no hope. It wants escape, yet can conceive |
| W1:121.6 | Forgiveness is acquired. It is not inherent in a mind which cannot | |
| W1:121.6 | in a mind which cannot sin. As sin was an idea you taught yourself, | forgiveness must be learned by you as well, but from a Teacher other |
| W1:121.7 | do you become your own. The unforgiving mind must learn through your | forgiveness that it has been saved from hell. And as you teach |
| W1:121.8 | in the morning and at night another ten to learning how to give | forgiveness and receive forgiveness too. |
| W1:121.8 | at night another ten to learning how to give forgiveness and receive | forgiveness too. |
| W1:121.13 | Do not forget throughout the day the role | forgiveness plays in bringing happiness to every unforgiving mind, |
| W1:121.14 | Forgiveness is the key to happiness. I will awaken from the dream | |
| W1:122.1 | What could you want | forgiveness cannot give? Do you want peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do |
| W1:122.1 | What could you want forgiveness cannot give? Do you want peace? | Forgiveness offers it. Do you want happiness, a quiet mind, a |
| W1:122.2 | All this | forgiveness offers you, and more. It sparkles in your eyes as you |
| W1:122.2 | again, it offers you another day of happiness and peace. All this | forgiveness offers you, and more. |
| W1:122.3 | Forgiveness lets the veil be lifted up which hides the face of Christ | |
| W1:122.4 | What would you want | forgiveness cannot give? What gifts but these are worthy to be |
| W1:122.4 | or transient promise never to be kept can hold more hope than what | forgiveness brings? Why would you seek an answer other than the |
| W1:122.8 | your eyes today, and look upon a happy world of safety and of peace. | Forgiveness is the means by which it comes to take the place of hell. |
| W1:122.8 | What you will remember then can never be described. Yet your | forgiveness offers it to you. |
| W1:122.9 | Remembering the gifts | forgiveness gives, we undertake our practicing today with hope and |
| W1:122.11 | of the answer brings. Today it will be given you to feel the peace | forgiveness offers and the joy the lifting of the veil holds out to |
| W1:122.12 | been held in store for us since time began, kept waiting for today. | Forgiveness offers everything you want. Today all things you want are |
| W1:122.15 | Forgiveness offers everything I want. Today I have accepted this as | |
| W1:126.1 | you believed this statement, there would be no problem in complete | forgiveness, certainty of goal, and sure direction. You would |
| W1:126.3 | him beneath a true equality with you. He has no claim on your | forgiveness. It holds out a gift to him but hardly to yourself. |
| W1:126.4 | Thus is | forgiveness basically unsound—a charitable whim, benevolent yet |
| W1:126.5 | If this be true, | forgiveness has no grounds on which to rest dependably and sure. It |
| W1:126.6 | You do not understand | forgiveness. As you see it, it is but a check upon overt attack, |
| W1:126.7 | as worthy of His Son? Salvation is a better gift than this, and true | forgiveness, as the means by which it is attained, must heal the mind |
| W1:126.9 | the attempt to understand today's idea. It is the thought by which | forgiveness takes its proper place in your priorities. It is the |
| W1:126.9 | It is the thought that will release your mind from every bar to what | forgiveness means and let you realize its worth to you. |
| W1:126.10 | In silence close your eyes upon the world which does not understand | forgiveness and seek sanctuary in the quiet place where thoughts are |
| W1:134.1 | and undeserved, and a complete denial of the truth. In such a view, | forgiveness must be seen as mere eccentric folly, and this course |
| W1:134.2 | This twisted view of what | forgiveness means is easily corrected when you can accept the fact |
| W1:134.3 | The major difficulty that you find in genuine | forgiveness on your part is that you still believe you must forgive |
| W1:134.4 | For it is impossible to think of sin as true and not believe | forgiveness is a lie. Thus is forgiveness really but a sin, like all |
| W1:134.4 | think of sin as true and not believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is | forgiveness really but a sin, like all the rest. It says the truth is |
| W1:134.6 | It is sin's unreality that makes | forgiveness natural and wholly sane, a deep relief to those who offer |
| W1:134.7 | Forgiveness is the only thing that stands for truth in the illusions | |
| W1:134.9 | Now are you free to follow in the way your true | forgiveness opens up to you. For if one brother has received this |
| W1:134.9 | to yourself. There is a very simple way to find the door to true | forgiveness and perceive it open wide in welcome. When you feel that |
| W1:134.10 | which would condemn. In truth is innocence the only thing there is. | Forgiveness stands between illusions and the truth, between the world |
| W1:134.13 | Forgiveness must be practiced, for the world cannot perceive its | |
| W1:134.14 | Today we practice true | forgiveness that the time of joining be no more delayed. For we would |
| W1:134.15 | today and spend it with the Guide Who understands the meaning of | forgiveness and was sent to us to teach it. Let us ask of Him: |
| W1:134.16 | Let me perceive | forgiveness as it is. |
| W1:134.19 | Forgiveness should be practiced through the day, for there will be so | |
| W1:134.20 | Let me perceive | forgiveness as it is. Should I accuse myself of doing this? I will |
| W1:137.5 | of sickness in the name of truth but not in truth itself. Just as | forgiveness overlooks all sins that never were accomplished, healing |
| W1:137.7 | Just as | forgiveness shines away all sin and the real world will occupy the |
| W1:137.9 | Healing, | forgiveness, and the glad exchange of all the world of sorrow for a |
| W1:140.3 | of the world, where one can merely dream he is awake. The dreams | forgiveness lets the mind perceive do not induce another form of |
| W1:R4.4 | his mind no thoughts can dwell but those his Father shares. Lack of | forgiveness blocks this thought from his awareness. Yet it is forever |
| W1:R4.5 | with some understanding of the many forms in which the lack of true | forgiveness may be carefully concealed. Because they are illusions, |
| W1:141.1 | [121] | Forgiveness is the key to happiness. |
| W1:141.2 | [122] | Forgiveness offers everything I want. |
| W1:147.2 | [134] Let me perceive | forgiveness as it is. |
| W1:158.6 | the intangible. Here is a quiet place within the world made holy by | forgiveness and by love. Here are all contradictions reconciled, for |
| W1:158.9 | for Christ has vision which has power to overlook them all. In His | forgiveness, they are gone. Unseen by One, they merely disappear |
| W1:159.2 | You understand that you are healed when you give healing. You accept | forgiveness as accomplished in yourself when you forgive. You |
| W1:159.5 | you safely trust to carry you from this world into one made holy by | forgiveness. Things which seem quite solid here are merely shadows |
| W1:159.8 | Christ's vision is the holy ground in which the lilies of | forgiveness set their roots. This is their home. They can be brought |
| W1:168.4 | Heaven be delayed an instant longer? What remains undone when your | forgiveness rests on everything? |
| W1:169.6 | be conceived. It lies beyond salvation—past all thought of time, | forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. The Son of God has merely |
| W1:169.7 | This is beyond experience we try to hasten. Yet | forgiveness, taught and learned, brings with it the experiences which |
| W1:169.7 | in that what you will offer was concealed from Him Who teaches what | forgiveness means. All learning was already in His Mind, accomplished |
| W1:169.10 | each uncertain heart that does not beat as yet in tune with God. | Forgiveness is the central theme which runs throughout salvation, |
| W1:186.14 | never can deceive, although they come from Formlessness Itself. | Forgiveness is an earthly form of love which as it is in Heaven has |
| W1:189.3 | at all. The other one is wholly meaningless. A world in which | forgiveness shines on everything and peace offers its gentle light to |
| W1:190.7 | Your thoughts of death envelop it in fear, while in your kind | forgiveness does it live. |
| W1:191.10 | lost, to save the helpless, and to give the world the gift of his | forgiveness. Who could see the world as dark and sinful when God's |
| W1:192.2 | Forgiveness represents your function here. It is not God's creation, | |
| W1:192.3 | cannot even be conceived of in the world. It has no meaning here. | Forgiveness is the closest it can come to earth. For being |
| W1:192.4 | Forgiveness gently looks upon all things unknown in Heaven, sees them | |
| W1:192.4 | of God can now replace the senseless symbols written there before. | Forgiveness is the means by which the fear of death is overcome |
| W1:192.5 | Forgiveness lets the body be perceived as what it is—a simple | |
| W1:192.6 | Only | forgiveness can relieve the mind of thinking that the body is its |
| W1:192.6 | can relieve the mind of thinking that the body is its home. Only | forgiveness can restore the peace that God intended for His holy Son. |
| W1:192.6 | can restore the peace that God intended for His holy Son. Only | forgiveness can persuade the Son to look again upon his holiness. |
| W1:192.7 | But we have indeed been given everything by God. Yet do we need | forgiveness to perceive that this is so. Without its kindly light we |
| W1:193.3 | God offers no | forgiveness, for He knows no sin is possible. And yet He let His holy |
| W1:193.4 | He redirects each lesson you would teach in hate to one in which | forgiveness enters, and returns the hate to love, so that the fear is |
| W1:193.16 | time today, and in the days to come, in practicing the lesson in | forgiveness in the form established for the day. And try to give it |
| W1:195.8 | yet retain some other things still locked away as sins. When your | forgiveness is complete, you will have total gratitude, for you will |
| W1:197.1 | force pitted against your own. You make attempts at kindness and | forgiveness. Yet you turn them to attack again unless you find |
| W1:197.6 | think that what is given you has been withdrawn. But learn to let | forgiveness take away the sins you think you see outside yourself, |
| W1:198.2 | them a while as if they had. Illusion makes illusion. Except one. | Forgiveness is illusion that is answer to the rest. |
| W1:198.3 | Forgiveness sweeps all other dreams away, and though it is itself a | |
| W1:198.3 | one must multiply a thousand fold. But this is where illusions end. | Forgiveness is the end of dreams because it is a dream of waking. It |
| W1:198.4 | Forgiveness is the only road that leads out of disaster, past all | |
| W1:198.8 | like these, and unaware of any condemnation which could need | forgiveness. Dreams of any kind are strange and alien to the truth. |
| W1:198.10 | Only my condemnation injures me. Only my own | forgiveness sets me free. |
| W1:198.11 | to hide an unforgiving thought. Nor can there be a form of pain | forgiveness cannot heal. |
| W1:198.14 | him gifts when everything is his? And who could dream of offering | forgiveness to the Son of Sinlessness Itself, so like to Him Whose |
| W1:199.4 | for what the mind must do. It thus becomes a vehicle which helps | forgiveness be extended to the all-inclusive goal that it must reach |
| W1:200.6 | What does | forgiveness do? In truth it has no function and does nothing, for it |
| W2:WF.1 | Forgiveness recognizes what you thought your brother did to you has | |
| W2:WF.1 | your sins forgiven. What is sin except a false idea about God's Son? | Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and therefore lets it go. What |
| W2:WF.4 | Forgiveness, on the other hand, is still and quietly does nothing. It | |
| W2:WF.5 | Do nothing, then, and let | forgiveness show you what to do through Him Who is your Guide, your |
| W2:WS.3 | holy Name of God whereon His Word is written, with the gifts of your | forgiveness laid before it and the memory of God not far behind. |
| W2:WIW.1 | When the thought of separation has been changed to one of true | forgiveness will the world be seen in quite another light, and one |
| W2:WIW.5 | has joined our changed perception. Let us not be satisfied until | forgiveness has been made complete. And let us not attempt to change |
| W2:247.1 | is the symbol of attack. Behold it anywhere, and I will suffer. For | forgiveness is the only means whereby Christ's vision comes to me. |
| W2:249.1 | Forgiveness paints a picture of a world where suffering is over, loss | |
| W2:256.1 | The way to God is through | forgiveness here. There is no other way. If sin had not been |
| W2:256.1 | and it is this we choose to dream today. God is our goal; | forgiveness is the means by which our minds return to Him at last. |
| W2:257.2 | Father, | forgiveness is Your chosen means for our salvation. Let us not forget |

| W2:297.1 | Forgiveness is the only gift I give because it is the only gift I | |
| W2:298.1 | I restored to my reality at last. All that intruded on my holy sight | forgiveness takes away. And I draw near the end of senseless |

| Tx:5.65 | illness is a form of magic. It might be better to say that it is a | form of magical solution. The ego believes that by punishing itself |

| Tx:6.3 | capacity for allegiance. It has indeed been misplaced, but it is a | form of faith which you yourselves have been willing to redirect. You |

| Tx:7.14 | Kingdom teaching is mandatory, because learning is essential. This | form of the law clearly implies that you will learn what you are from |
| Tx:7.14 | in the surety of being, know that what you project you are. That | form of the law is not adapted at all, being the law of creation. God |
| Tx:7.15 | Nevertheless, a good translator, although he must alter the | form of what he translates, never changes the meaning. In fact, his |
| Tx:7.15 | changes the meaning. In fact, his whole purpose is to change the | form so that the original meaning is retained. The Holy Spirit is the |
| Tx:7.15 | to one meaning and will therefore change the meaning to preserve the | form. |
| Tx:7.16 | respects and in all languages. Therefore, He opposes differences in | form as meaningful, emphasizing always that these differences do not |
| Tx:7.16 | same, and only the meaning matters. God's law of Creation in perfect | form does not involve the use of truth to convince His Sons of truth. |
| Tx:7.41 | and must develop if he is to be healed. Healing is the Holy Spirit's | form of communication and the only one He knows. He recognizes no |
| Tx:8.53 | Attack is always physical. When attack in any | form enters your mind, you are equating yourself with a body. This is |
| Tx:8.67 | if all condemnation is unreal, and it must be unreal since it is a | form of attack, then it can have no results. |
| Tx:8.83 | you have misused it on behalf of sickness. Sleep is no more a | form of death than death is a form of unconsciousness. |
| Tx:8.83 | behalf of sickness. Sleep is no more a form of death than death is a | form of unconsciousness. Unconsciousness is impossible. You can rest |
| Tx:8.84 | cannot distinguish among degrees of error, for if He taught that one | form of sickness is more serious than another, He would be teaching |
| Tx:8.100 | and to ask for it is not a request. It is merely a denial in the | form of a request. The Holy Spirit is not concerned with form at all, |
| Tx:8.100 | in the form of a request. The Holy Spirit is not concerned with | form at all, being aware only of meaning. The ego cannot ask the Holy |
| Tx:9.22 | All unhealed healers follow the ego's plan for forgiveness in one | form or another. If they are theologians, they are likely to condemn |
| Tx:9.22 | concept, but to revolt against it is still to believe in it. The | form of the revolt, then, is different but not the content. |
| Tx:9.23 | forms of the ego's plan are as unhelpful as the older ones, because | form does not matter to the Holy Spirit and therefore does not matter |
| Tx:9.52 | it. You have made grandiosity and are afraid of it because it is a | form of attack, but your grandeur is of God, Who created it out of |
| Tx:9.85 | All magic is a | form of reconciling the irreconcilable. All religion is the |

| Tx:11.3 | appeal for healing and help. That is what it is, regardless of the | form it takes. Can anyone be justified in responding with anger to a |
| Tx:13.15 | of God can attack himself and make himself guilty is insane. In any | form, in anyone, believe this not. For sin and condemnation are the |
| Tx:13.65 | There is no conflict here. To wish for guilt in any way, in any | form, will lose appreciation of the value of your guiltlessness and |
| Tx:13.89 | You will feel guilty till you learn this. For in the end, whatever | form it takes, your guilt arises from your failure to fulfill your |
| Tx:14.45 | The response of holiness to any | form of error is always the same. There is no contradiction in what |
| Tx:14.52 | everything else is nothing but a need for love. You are too bound to | form and not to content. What you consider content is not content at |
| Tx:14.52 | What you consider content is not content at all. It is merely | form, and nothing else. For you do not respond to what a brother |
| Tx:14.53 | content and is totally unconcerned with it. To the ego, if the | form is acceptable, the content must be. Otherwise, it will attack |
| Tx:14.53 | is acceptable, the content must be. Otherwise, it will attack the | form. You who believe you understand something of the dynamics of the |
| Tx:14.53 | who would analyze it, approving its importance. Yet they but study | form with meaningless content. For their teacher is senseless, though |
| Tx:14.54 | arises from joining them is incoherent and utterly chaotic. For | form is not enough for meaning, and the underlying lack of content |
| Tx:14.63 | what His Father wills for him. Every dark lesson teaches this in one | form or another. And each bright lesson, with which the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:15.23 | that you accept the fact, and accept it gladly, that there is no | form of littleness that can ever content you. You are free to try as |
| Tx:15.83 | you do not understand. God would respond to every need, whatever | form it takes. And so He has kept this channel open to receive His |
| Tx:15.97 | when this recognition dawns clearly, you will not be deceived by any | form the ego takes to protect itself from your sight. |
| Tx:15.98 | Each | form will be recognized as but a cover for the one idea that hides |
| Tx:16.1 | That is the ego's interpretation of empathy and is always used to | form a special relationship in which the suffering is shared. The |
| Tx:16.6 | And yet you know no triumph but this. This is not knowledge, and the | form of empathy that would bring this about is so distorted that it |
| Tx:16.35 | to seek for what is false. Every illusion is one of fear, whatever | form it takes. And the attempt to escape from one illusion into |
| Tx:16.43 | to be gone. All these must be understood for what they are. Whatever | form they take, they are always an attack on the self to make the |
| Tx:16.50 | else, the illusion of Heaven is nothing more than an “attractive” | form of fear in which the guilt is buried deep and rises in the form |
| Tx:16.50 | form of fear in which the guilt is buried deep and rises in the | form of “love.” |
| Tx:16.54 | Whenever any | form of special relationship tempts you to seek for love in ritual, |
| Tx:16.54 | you to seek for love in ritual, remember love is content and not | form of any kind. The special relationship is a ritual of form, aimed |
| Tx:16.54 | and not form of any kind. The special relationship is a ritual of | form, aimed at the raising of the form to take the place of God at |
| Tx:16.54 | relationship is a ritual of form, aimed at the raising of the | form to take the place of God at the expense of content. There is no |
| Tx:16.54 | place of God at the expense of content. There is no meaning in the | form, and there will never be. The special relationship must be |
| Tx:16.54 | from the death of God and invested in His killer as the sign that | form has triumphed over content and love has lost its meaning. Would |
| Tx:18.3 | It seems to take many forms, and each seems to require a different | form of acting out for satisfaction. While this appears to introduce |
| Tx:18.3 | acceptance or rejection of suitability for acting out a special | form of fear. |
| Tx:18.6 | above all, be not afraid of it. When you seem to see some twisted | form of the original error rise to frighten you, say only, “God is |
| Tx:18.7 | To judge them individually is pointless. Their tiny differences in | form are no real differences at all. None of them matters. That they |
| Tx:18.19 | real remains with you. And what you seem to wake to is but another | form of this same world you see in dreams. All your time is spent in |
| Tx:18.71 | outside itself. You cannot even think of God without a body or some | form you think you recognize. |
| Tx:19.26 | sin to fear, demanding punishment. Yet punishment is but another | form of guilt's protection, for what is deserving punishment must |
| Tx:19.27 | let it go unless the guilt remains. For then you will but change the | form of sin, granting that it was an error but keeping it |
| Tx:20.72 | is always sure. For it will meet His purpose, seen in unadjusted | form and suited perfectly to meet it. Destructiveness becomes benign, |
| Tx:20.72 | to correct? Its eyes adjust to sin, unable to overlook it in any | form and seeing it everywhere, in everything. Look through its eyes, |
| Tx:21.78 | will be clear to you that, as you look on the effects of sin in any | form, all you need do is simply ask yourself, |
| Tx:21.84 | Elusive happiness, or happiness in changing | form that shifts with time and place, is an illusion which has no |
| Tx:22.18 | only guilt and suffering, sickness and death to their believers. The | form in which they are accepted is irrelevant. No form of misery in |
| Tx:22.18 | believers. The form in which they are accepted is irrelevant. No | form of misery in reason's eyes can be confused with joy. Joy is |
| Tx:22.24 | the mind's extensions but its enemies. And here we see again another | form of the same fundamental illusion we have seen many times before. |
| Tx:22.31 | it. Yet reason sees through it easily because it is an error. The | form it takes cannot conceal its emptiness from reason's eyes. |
| Tx:22.32 | Only the | form of error attracts the ego. Meaning it does not recognize and |
| Tx:22.32 | that the whole would give. And yet mistakes, regardless of their | form, can be corrected. Sin is but error in a special form the ego |
| Tx:22.32 | of their form, can be corrected. Sin is but error in a special | form the ego venerates. It would preserve all errors and make them |
| Tx:22.33 | Reason will tell you that the | form of error is not what makes it a mistake. If what the form |
| Tx:22.33 | that the form of error is not what makes it a mistake. If what the | form conceals is a mistake, the form cannot prevent correction. The |
| Tx:22.33 | what makes it a mistake. If what the form conceals is a mistake, the | form cannot prevent correction. The body's eyes see only form. They |
| Tx:22.33 | the form cannot prevent correction. The body's eyes see only | form. They cannot see beyond what they were made to see. And they |
| Tx:22.33 | to look beyond the granite block of sin and stopping at the outside | form of nothing. To this distorted form of vision, the outside of |
| Tx:22.33 | sin and stopping at the outside form of nothing. To this distorted | form of vision, the outside of everything, the wall that stands |
| Tx:22.33 | nothingness as if it were a solid wall see truly? It is held back by | form, having been made to guarantee that nothing else but form will |
| Tx:22.33 | back by form, having been made to guarantee that nothing else but | form will be perceived. |
| Tx:22.34 | beyond. Watch how they stop at nothingness, unable to go beyond the | form to meaning. Nothing so blinding as perception of form. For sight |
| Tx:22.34 | go beyond the form to meaning. Nothing so blinding as perception of | form. For sight of form means understanding has been obscured. |
| Tx:22.34 | to meaning. Nothing so blinding as perception of form. For sight of | form means understanding has been obscured. |
| Tx:22.35 | have different forms, and so they can deceive. You can change | form because it is not true. It could not be reality, because it can |
| Tx:22.35 | be reality, because it can be changed. Reason will tell you that, if | form is not reality, it must be an illusion and is not there to see. |
| Tx:22.36 | Let not the | form of his mistakes keep you from him whose holiness is yours. Let |
| Tx:22.54 | holy relationship has the power to heal all pain, regardless of its | form. Neither of you alone can serve at all. Only in your joint will |
| Tx:22.55 | Before a holy relationship there is no sin. The | form of error is no longer seen, and reason, joined with love, looks |
| Tx:22.57 | hidden what mistake can there be anywhere you cannot overlook? What | form of suffering could block your sight, preventing you from seeing |
| Tx:22.62 | believe attack of any kind means anything. It is unjustified in any | form because it has no meaning. The only way it could be justified is |
| Tx:23.12 | from each other. Both are not true. And so it matters not what | form they take. What made them is insane, and they remain part of |
| Tx:23.17 | forms are different. And they do battle only to establish which | form is true. |
| Tx:23.34 | No law of chaos could compel belief but for the emphasis on | form and disregard of content. No one who thinks that one of them is |
| Tx:23.35 | How can some forms of murder not mean death? Can an attack in any | form be love? What form of condemnation is a blessing? Who makes his |
| Tx:23.35 | of murder not mean death? Can an attack in any form be love? What | form of condemnation is a blessing? Who makes his savior powerless |
| Tx:23.35 | Who makes his savior powerless and finds salvation? Let not the | form of the attack on him deceive you. You cannot seek to harm him |
| Tx:23.35 | safety from attack by turning on himself? How can it matter what the | form this madness takes? It is a judgment that defeats itself, |
| Tx:23.35 | what it says it wants to save. Be not deceived when madness takes a | form you think is lovely. What is intent on your destruction is not |
| Tx:23.36 | Brothers, you do believe them. For how else could you perceive the | form they take with content such as this? Can any form of this be |
| Tx:23.36 | you perceive the form they take with content such as this? Can any | form of this be tenable? Yet you believe them for the form they take |
| Tx:23.36 | this? Can any form of this be tenable? Yet you believe them for the | form they take and do not recognize the content. It never changes. |
| Tx:23.38 | bring fear because of the beliefs that they imply, not for their | form. And lack of faith in love in any form attests to chaos as |
| Tx:23.38 | they imply, not for their form. And lack of faith in love in any | form attests to chaos as reality. |
| Tx:23.39 | do follow neatly from their starting point. Each is a different | form in the progression of truth's reversal, leading still deeper |
| Tx:23.40 | the rest for what they are. And they will follow. Attack in any | form has placed your foot upon the twisted stairway that leads from |
| Tx:23.41 | some of the forms attack can take? If it is true attack in any | form will hurt you and will do so just as much as in another form |
| Tx:23.41 | in any form will hurt you and will do so just as much as in another | form which you do recognize, then it must follow that you do not |
| Tx:23.41 | that you do not always recognize the source of pain. Attack in any | form is equally destructive. Its purpose does not change. Its sole |
| Tx:23.41 | Its purpose does not change. Its sole intent is murder, and what | form of murder serves to cover the massive guilt and frantic fear of |
| Tx:23.41 | guilt the thought entails. If the intent is death, what matter the | form it takes? |
| Tx:23.42 | Is death in any | form, however lovely and charitable it may seem to be, a blessing and |
| Tx:23.44 | Would you not want to recognize assault upon your peace in any | form, if only thus does it become impossible that you lose sight of |
| Tx:23.46 | and the unnatural intent to murder and to die. Think you the | form that murder takes can offer safety? Can guilt be absent from a |
| Tx:23.47 | only place of safety. In Him is no attack, and no illusion in any | form stalks Heaven. Heaven is wholly true. No difference enters, and |
| Tx:23.47 | fight against your wish to murder. But you are asked to realize the | form it takes conceals the same intent. And it is this you fear and |
| Tx:23.47 | takes conceals the same intent. And it is this you fear and not the | form. What is not love is murder. What is not loving must be an |
| Tx:23.50 | complete as yet, and so it cannot be extended to all creation. Each | form of murder and attack that still attracts you and that you do not |
| Tx:23.50 | in it no more. This is your part—to realize that murder in any | form is not your will. The overlooking of the battleground is now |
| Tx:24.27 | Whatever | form of specialness you cherish, you have made sin. Inviolate it |
| Tx:24.41 | There is no dream of specialness—however hidden or disguised the | form; however lovely it may seem to be; however much it delicately |
| Tx:25.15 | it is gone within your mind to darken what is there. Take not the | form for content, for the form is but a means for content. And the |
| Tx:25.15 | mind to darken what is there. Take not the form for content, for the | form is but a means for content. And the frame is but a means to hold |
| Tx:25.23 | from this, to hold it up and offer it support. This is perception's | form adapted to this world of God's more basic law that love creates |
| Tx:25.26 | the law itself upholds the universe as God created it, but in some | form adapted to the need the Son of God believes he has. Corrected |
| Tx:25.36 | state nor time. Nothing beyond nor nearer. Nothing else. In any | form. This can you bring to all the world and all the thoughts that |
| Tx:25.39 | Nor do you hear his plaintive call, unchanged in content in whatever | form the call is made, that you unite with him and join with him in |
| Tx:25.47 | Here, where the laws of God do not prevail in perfect | form, can he yet do one perfect thing and make one perfect choice. |
| Tx:25.48 | it, he made it for himself. His wish was not denied but changed in | form to let it serve his brother and himself and thus become a means |
| Tx:25.53 | Son. This you believe. Think not that this belief depends upon the | form it takes. Who thinks the world is sane in any way, is justified |
| Tx:25.53 | any way, is justified in anything it thinks, or is maintained by any | form of reason believes this to be true. Sin is not real because the |
| Tx:25.56 | Your special function is the special | form in which the fact that God is not insane appears most sensible |
| Tx:25.56 | most sensible and meaningful to you. The content is the same. The | form is suited to your special needs and to the special time and |
| Tx:25.56 | God did not will. Yet if His Will is seen as madness, then the | form of sanity which makes it most acceptable to those who are insane |
| Tx:25.57 | chose insanity as his salvation. To this One is given the choice of | form most suitable to him; one which will not attack the world he |
| Tx:25.58 | Now must he question this because the | form of the alternative is one which he cannot deny nor overlook nor |
| Tx:25.60 | were true, then God is mad indeed! But what is this belief except a | form of the more basic tenet, “Sin is real and rules the world”? For |
| Tx:25.66 | should lack for what another has. For that is vengeance in whatever | form it takes. Justice demands no sacrifice, for any sacrifice is |
| Tx:26.10 | approach. The aspects which need solving do not change, whatever | form the problem seems to take. A problem can appear in many forms, |
| Tx:26.10 | lasts. It serves no purpose to attempt to solve it in a special | form. It will recur and then recur again and yet again until it has |
| Tx:26.10 | it has been answered for all time and will not rise again in any | form. And only then are you released from it. |
| Tx:26.11 | have. They are the same to Him because each one, regardless of the | form it seems to take, is a demand that someone suffer loss and make |
| Tx:26.12 | This one mistake in any | form has one correction. There is no loss; to think there is, is a |
| Tx:26.16 | for all your problems. You will not keep one, for pain in any | form you will not want. And you will see each little hurt resolved |
| Tx:26.61 | in its effects as is the whole idea of sacrifice. If loss in any | form is possible, then is God's Son made incomplete and not himself. |
| Tx:26.62 | were made another purpose that would justify a miracle, whatever | form they took. In every miracle all healing lies, for God gave |
| Tx:26.70 | its purpose is made yours and its effects will come to you. In this | form is the error still obscured that is the source of fear. |
| Tx:26.73 | from God. And yet it seems as if this is not so. Good in disaster's | form is difficult to credit in advance. Nor is there really sense in |
| Tx:26.74 | Why should the good appear in evil's | form? And is it not deception if it does? Its cause is here if it |
| Tx:26.74 | disaster strikes, to be perceived as “good” some day but now in | form of pain. This is a sacrifice of now, which could not be the cost |
| Tx:26.75 | mind. And this illusion is but one effect which it engenders and one | form in which its outcome is perceived. This interval in time, when |
| Tx:26.75 | This interval in time, when retribution is perceived to be the | form in which the “good” appears, is but one aspect of the little |
| Tx:26.76 | you have cause for freedom now. What profits freedom in a prisoner's | form? Why should deliverance be disguised as death? Delay is |
| Tx:26.76 | And do not let it be disguised as time and so preserved because its | form is changed and what it is cannot be recognized. The Holy |
| Tx:26.85 | If it occurs at all, it will be total. And its presence, in whatever | form, will hide Their Presence. They are known with clarity or not at |
| Tx:26.87 | You cannot be unfairly treated. The belief you are is but another | form of the idea you are deprived by someone not yourself. Projection |
| Tx:27.5 | Sickness is but a “little” death; a | form of vengeance not yet total. Yet it speaks with certainty for |
| Tx:27.7 | paint the picture in which sin is justified, is sickness in whatever | form it takes. |
| Tx:27.33 | is no symbol for totality. Reality is ultimately known without a | form, unpictured and unseen. Forgiveness is not yet a power known as |
| Tx:27.38 | asks and answers, both attesting the same thing in different | form. |
| Tx:27.39 | escape from all the pain of which this world is made?” Whatever | form the question takes, its purpose is the same. It asks but to |
| Tx:27.39 | is the same. It asks but to establish sin is real and answers in the | form of preference. “Which sin do you prefer? That is the one which |
| Tx:27.39 | to question its beliefs, except that what it states takes question's | form. |
| Tx:27.40 | answer even as it asks. Thus is all questioning within the world a | form of propaganda for itself. Just as the body's witnesses are but |
| Tx:27.86 | but this: that you are doing this unto yourself. No matter what the | form of the attack, this still is true. Whoever takes the role of |
| Tx:27.86 | single lesson learned will set you free from suffering, whatever | form it takes. |
| Tx:27.87 | lesson of deliverance until it has been learned, regardless of the | form of suffering that brings you pain. Whatever hurt you bring to |
| Tx:27.87 | very simple truth. For this one answer takes away the cause of every | form of sorrow and of pain. The form affects His answer not at all, |
| Tx:27.87 | answer takes away the cause of every form of sorrow and of pain. The | form affects His answer not at all, for He would teach you but the |
| Tx:27.87 | teach you but the single cause of all of them, no matter what their | form. And you will understand that miracles reflect the simple |
| Tx:28.31 | The gap is little. Yet it holds the seeds of pestilence and every | form of ill because it is a wish to keep apart and not to join. And |
| Tx:28.38 | right here and now. Refuse to be a part of fearful dreams whatever | form they take, for you will lose identity in them. You find yourself |
| Tx:28.63 | of sickness are immune because the choice cannot be made in terms of | form. The choice of sickness seems to be a form, yet it is one, as is |
| Tx:28.63 | be made in terms of form. The choice of sickness seems to be a | form, yet it is one, as is its opposite. And you are sick or well |
| Tx:29.26 | is seen. For every dream is but a dream of fear, no matter what the | form it seems to take. The fear is seen within, without, or both. Or |
| Tx:29.26 | is seen within, without, or both. Or it can be disguised in pleasant | form. But never is it absent from the dream, for fear is the material |
| Tx:29.26 | fear is the material of dreams from which they all are made. Their | form can change, but they cannot be made of something else. The |
| Tx:29.27 | In simplest | form it can be said attack is a response to function unfulfilled as |
| Tx:29.30 | love. For at its center is His love for you, which lights whatever | form it takes with love. |
| Tx:29.36 | it was made for hate and will continue in death's services. Each | form it takes in some way calls for death. And those who serve the |
| Tx:29.38 | and misery and pain? These questions are the same in different | form. Forgiveness is your peace, for herein lies the end of |
| Tx:29.45 | and does not understand the idol that he seeks is but his death. Its | form appears to be outside himself. Yet does he seek to kill God's |
| Tx:29.47 | its lifelessness is really death, conceived as real and given living | form. Yet each must fail and crumble and decay because a form of |
| Tx:29.47 | living form. Yet each must fail and crumble and decay because a | form of death cannot be life, and what is sacrificed cannot be whole. |
| Tx:29.52 | he is. Idols are made that he may be replaced, no matter what their | form. And it is this which never is perceived and recognized. Be it a |
| Tx:29.53 | Let not their | form deceive you. Idols are but substitutes for your reality. In some |
| Tx:29.54 | An idol is a false impression or a false belief—some | form of anti-Christ which constitutes a gap between the Christ and |
| Tx:29.54 | Christ and what you see. An idol is a wish made tangible and given | form and thus perceived as real and seen outside the mind. Yet it is |
| Tx:29.54 | a thought and cannot leave the mind that is its source. Nor is its | form apart from the idea it represents. All forms of anti-Christ |
| Tx:29.55 | one blade of grass from something living to a sign of death. Its | form is nowhere, for its source abides within your mind, where God |
| Tx:29.55 | and to quail in fear. Christ's enemy is nowhere. He can take no | form in which he ever will be real. |
| Tx:29.57 | has been set by the idea this power and place and time are given | form and shape the world where the impossible has happened. Here the |
| Tx:29.69 | Whenever you feel fear in any | form—and you are fearful if you do not feel a deep content, a |
| Tx:30.2 | with a little practice with the ones you recognize, a set begins to | form which sees you through the rest. It is not wise to let yourself |
| Tx:30.31 | permits all things to happen. Nothing can be caused without some | form of union, be it with a dream of judgment or the Voice for God. |
| Tx:30.38 | But your will is universal, being limitless. And so it has no | form nor is content for its expression in the terms of form. Idols |
| Tx:30.38 | so it has no form nor is content for its expression in the terms of | form. Idols are limits. They are the belief that there are forms |
| Tx:30.39 | It is not | form you seek. What form can be a substitute for God the Father's |
| Tx:30.39 | It is not form you seek. What | form can be a substitute for God the Father's love? What form can |
| Tx:30.39 | seek. What form can be a substitute for God the Father's love? What | form can take the place of all the love in the divinity of God the |
| Tx:30.39 | will not bestow on you the gift you seek. When you decide upon the | form of what you want, you lose the understanding of its purpose. So |
| Tx:30.39 | So you see your will within the idol, thus reducing it to a specific | form. Yet this could never be your will because what shares in all |
| Tx:30.40 | for every idol lies the yearning for completion. Wholeness has no | form because it is unlimited. To seek a special person or a thing to |
| Tx:30.40 | to you to make yourself complete can only mean that you believe some | form is missing. And by finding this, you will achieve completion in |
| Tx:30.40 | is missing. And by finding this, you will achieve completion in a | form you like. This is the purpose of an idol—that you will not |
| Tx:30.41 | is but God's Will, and this is given you by being His. God knows not | form. He cannot answer you in terms which have no meaning. And your |
| Tx:30.42 | If there were change in him, if he could be reduced to any | form and limited to what is not in him, he would not be as God |
| Tx:30.42 | really asked for cannot be denied. Your will is granted. Not in any | form that would content you not, but in the whole completely lovely |
| Tx:30.53 | they are appearances and not reality. Dwell not on them in any | form. They but obscure reality, and they bring fear because they hide |
| Tx:30.58 | there, for guilt is understood as the sole cause of pain in any | form. No one is tempted by its vain appeal, for suffering and death |
| Tx:30.74 | There would be an error that is more than a mistake—a special | form of error which remains unchangeable, eternal, and beyond |
| Tx:30.89 | before, and now you think it real again. Reality is thus reduced to | form and capable of change. Reality is changeless. It is this that |
| Tx:30.89 | and keeps it separate from all appearances. It must transcend all | form to be itself. It cannot change. |
| Tx:30.90 | you perceive as his reality. The happy dream about him takes the | form of the appearance of his perfect health, his perfect freedom |
| Tx:30.90 | The miracle is proof he is not bound by loss or suffering in any | form because it can so easily be changed. This demonstrates that it |
| Tx:30.93 | to heal all things that change and offer them to you to see in happy | form, devoid of fear. It will be given you to look upon your brother |
| Tx:31.3 | which you went to practice and repeat the lessons endlessly in every | form you could conceive of them could ever doubt the power of your |
| Tx:31.10 | the dying world! You do not understand Who calls to you beyond each | form of hate, each call to war. Yet you will recognize Him as you |
| Tx:31.24 | you want and needs the same as you. It takes perhaps a different | form in him, but it is not the form you answer to. He asks and you |
| Tx:31.24 | as you. It takes perhaps a different form in him, but it is not the | form you answer to. He asks and you receive, for you have come with |
| Tx:31.26 | hate your brother for his sins, but only for your own. Whatever | form his sins appear to take, it but obscures the fact that you |
| Tx:31.38 | learning that the world can offer but one choice, no matter what its | form may be, is the beginning of acceptance that there is a real |
| Tx:31.69 | but will not see them as meaningless. And so they come in fearful | form, with content still concealed, to shake your sorry concept of |
| Tx:31.79 | Whatever | form temptation seems to take, it always but reflects a wish to be a |
| Tx:31.92 | and in hell. Yield not to this, and you will see all pain in every | form wherever it occurs but disappear as mists before the sun. A |
| W1:4.3 | and will be repeated from time to time in somewhat different | form. The aim here is to train you in the first steps toward the goal |
| W1:5.1 | as different. This is not true. However, until you learn that | form does not matter, each form becomes a proper subject for the |
| W1:5.1 | not true. However, until you learn that form does not matter, each | form becomes a proper subject for the exercises for the day. Applying |
| W1:5.2 | the idea for today for a specific perceived cause of an upset in any | form, use both the name of the form in which you see the upset and |
| W1:5.2 | perceived cause of an upset in any form, use both the name of the | form in which you see the upset and the cause which you ascribe to |
| W1:5.9 | I cannot keep this | form of upset and let the others go. For the purposes of these |
| W1:6.1 | to the preceding ones. Again, it is necessary to name both the | form of upset (anger, fear, worry, depression, and so on) and the |
| W1:6.7 | I cannot keep this | form of upset and let the others go. For the purposes of these |
| W1:10.2 | This is the second time we have used this kind of idea. The | form is only slightly different. This time the idea is introduced |
| W1:11.1 | world you see. Be glad indeed to practice the idea in this initial | form, for in this idea is your release made sure. The key to |
| W1:13.1 | Today's idea is really another | form of the preceding one, except that it is more specific as to the |
| W1:13.8 | You may find it difficult to avoid resistance in one | form or another to this concluding statement. Whatever form such |
| W1:13.8 | in one form or another to this concluding statement. Whatever | form such resistance may take, remind yourself that you are really |
| W1:16.7 | of a particular thought which arouses uneasiness. The following | form is suggested for this purpose: |
| W1:21.2 | or anticipated, which arouse anger in you. The anger may take the | form of any reaction ranging from mild irritation to rage. The degree |
| W1:21.6 | this aspect. If your perception of the person is suffering from this | form of distortion, say: |
| W1:22.4 | see nothing that will last. What I see is not real. What I see is a | form of vengeance. |
| W1:24.5 | as possible that you would like to be met in its resolution. The | form of each application should be roughly as follows: |
| W1:26.6 | whose outcomes are causing you concern. The concern may take the | form of depression, worry, anger, a sense of imposition, fear, |
| W1:31.1 | and the world you see within. In applying the idea, we will use a | form of practice which will be used more and more, with changes as |
| W1:31.1 | more and more, with changes as indicated. Generally speaking, the | form includes two aspects, one in which you apply the idea on a more |
| W1:31.5 | for today is a particularly useful one to use as a response to any | form of temptation. It is a declaration that you will not yield to it |
| W1:33.5 | yourself several times. Closing your eyes will probably help in this | form of application. |
| W1:34.5 | protect yourself from temptation throughout the day. If a specific | form of temptation arises in your awareness, the exercise should take |
| W1:34.5 | temptation arises in your awareness, the exercise should take this | form: |
| W1:34.7 | If the inroads on your peace of mind take the | form of more generalized adverse emotions, such as depression, |
| W1:34.7 | such as depression, anxiety, or worry, use the idea in its original | form. If you find you need more than one application of today's idea |
| W1:35.11 | the idea for today to them, adding the idea to each of them in the | form stated above. If nothing particular occurs to you, merely repeat |
| W1:36.2 | throughout the day. The longer practice periods should take this | form: |
| W1:38.3 | of your holiness to all problems, difficulties, or suffering in any | form that you happen to think of in yourself or someone else. We will |
| W1:38.4 | specifically and also the name of the person concerned. Use this | form in applying the idea for today: |
| W1:38.9 | In the frequent shorter applications, apply the idea in its original | form unless a specific problem concerning you or someone else arises |
| W1:38.9 | else arises or comes to mind. In that event, use the more specific | form of application. |
| W1:39.6 | Then with closed eyes search out your unloving thoughts in whatever | form they appear—uneasiness, depression, anger, fear, worry, |
| W1:39.6 | anger, fear, worry, attack, insecurity, and so on. Whatever | form they take, they are unloving and therefore fearful. And so it is |
| W1:39.11 | free to introduce variety into your practice periods in whatever | form appeals to you. Do not, however, change the idea itself in |
| W1:39.12 | End each practice period by repeating the idea in its original | form once more, and adding: |
| W1:39.14 | or preferably both. If temptations arise, a particularly helpful | form of the idea is: |
| W1:43.12 | In applying today's idea in the shorter practice periods, the | form may vary according to the circumstances and situations in which |
| W1:43.14 | This | form is equally applicable to strangers and to those you know well. |
| W1:43.15 | distress you in any way. For this kind of application, use this | form: |
| W1:43.17 | itself to your awareness, merely repeat the idea in its original | form. |
| W1:44.3 | to attempt to reach that light. For this purpose, we will use a | form of practice which has been suggested before and which we will |
| W1:44.3 | which we will utilize increasingly. It is a particularly difficult | form for the undisciplined mind and represents a major goal of mind |
| W1:44.4 | the time merely slipping by with little or no sense of strain. The | form of exercise we will use today is the most natural and easy one |
| W1:44.5 | mind is no longer wholly untrained. You are quite ready to learn the | form of exercise we will use today, but you may find that you will |
| W1:44.5 | resistance. The reason is very simple. While you practice in this | form, you leave behind everything that you now believe and all the |
| W1:44.8 | While no particular | form of approach is advocated, what is needful is a sense of the |
| W1:44.9 | If resistance rises in any | form, pause long enough to repeat today's idea, keeping your eyes |
| W1:45.4 | five-minute practice periods for today will take the same general | form that we used in applying yesterday's idea. We will attempt to |
| W1:45.12 | In using the shorter | form for applying today's idea, try to remember how important it is |
| W1:46.10 | The | form of the applications may vary considerably, but the central idea |
| W1:46.13 | a repetition of the idea for today in the original or in a related | form as you prefer. Be sure, however, to make more specific |
| W1:R1.6 | purposes the ideas are not always given in quite their original | form of statement. Use them as they are given here. It is not |
| W1:54.4 | Even the mad idea of separation had to be shared before it could | form the basis of the world I see. Yet that sharing was a sharing of |
| W1:55.3 | [22] What I see is a | form of vengeance. The world I see is hardly the representation of |
| W1:64.2 | Nothing the body's eyes seem to see can be anything but a | form of temptation, since this was the purpose of the body itself. |
| W1:64.6 | Can such a simple decision really be difficult to make? Let not the | form of the decision deceive you. Complexity of form does not imply |
| W1:64.6 | to make? Let not the form of the decision deceive you. Complexity of | form does not imply complexity of content. It is impossible that any |
| W1:65.12 | periods, which should be undertaken at least once an hour, use this | form in applying today's idea: |
| W1:66.14 | which would be most helpful today if undertaken twice an hour, this | form of the application is suggested: |
| W1:68.11 | periods should include a quick application of today's idea in this | form, whenever any thought of grievance arises against anyone, |
| W1:68.13 | In addition, repeat the idea several times an hour in this | form: |
| W1:70.1 | All temptation is nothing more than some | form of the basic temptation not to believe the idea for today. |
| W1:71.13 | temptation to hold grievances today, and respond to them with this | form of today's idea: |
| W1:73.17 | hour. It is most important, however, to apply today's idea in this | form immediately you are tempted to hold a grievance of any kind. |
| W1:79.6 | could recognize that your only problem is separation, no matter what | form it takes, you could accept the answer because you would see its |
| W1:79.10 | Be not deceived by the | form of problems today. Whenever any difficulty seems to rise, tell |
| W1:R2.2 | The longer practice periods will follow this general | form: take about 15 minutes for each of them, and begin by thinking |
| W1:R2.3 | to waver in the face of distracting thoughts. Realize that, whatever | form such thoughts may take, they have no meaning and no power. |
| W1:R2.5 | in the shorter practice periods as well, using the original | form of the idea for general application and a more specific form |
| W1:R2.5 | form of the idea for general application and a more specific | form when needed. Some specific forms will be included in the |
| W1:90.2 | can be solved. Let me realize today that the problem is always some | form of grievance which I would cherish. Let me also understand that |
| W1:91.14 | in light. Also, be sure to meet temptation with today's idea. This | form would be helpful for this special purpose: |
| W1:95.6 | terms of time is not the ideal requirement for the most beneficial | form of practice in salvation. It is advantageous, however, for those |
| W1:99.7 | along with Him. He has one answer to appearances regardless of their | form, their size, their depth, or any attribute they seem to have: |
| W1:101.2 | and it will seek them out and find them somewhere, sometime, in some | form which evens the account they owe to God. They would escape Him |
| W1:101.4 | If sin is real, its offering is death and meted out in cruel | form to match the vicious wishes in which sin is born. If sin is |
| W1:107.5 | or change to something else. It does not shift and alter in its | form, nor come and go and go and come again. It stays exactly as it |
| W1:R3.11 | think of it again. These practice periods are planned to help you | form the habit of applying what you learn each day to everything you |
| W1:121.10 | despise or merely try to overlook. It does not matter what the | form your anger takes. You probably have chosen him already. He will |
| W1:130.12 | would show to you. All you need say to any part of hell, whatever | form it takes, is simply this: |
| W1:132.8 | lesson now. Their readiness will bring the lesson to them in some | form which they can understand and recognize. Some see it suddenly on |
| W1:133.7 | no offering to him who chooses it. He is deceived by nothing in a | form he thinks he likes. |
| W1:134.9 | When you feel that you are tempted to accuse someone of sin in any | form, do not allow your mind to dwell on what you think he did, for |
| W1:138.2 | in God's creation cannot enter here unless it is reflected in some | form the world can understand. Truth cannot come where it could only |
| W1:138.6 | In this insanely complicated world, Heaven appears to take the | form of choice rather than merely being what it is. Of all the |
| W1:140.1 | illusion for illusion. One belief in sickness takes another | form, and so the patient now perceives himself as well. |
| W1:140.3 | The dreams forgiveness lets the mind perceive do not induce another | form of sleep, so that the dreamer dreams another dream. His happy |
| W1:140.4 | Sickness where guilt is absent cannot come, for it is but another | form of guilt. Atonement does not heal the sick, for that is not a |
| W1:140.6 | by its size, its seeming gravity, or anything that is related to the | form it takes. It merely focuses on what it is and knows that no |
| W1:140.10 | our charms and medicines, our chants and bits of magic in whatever | form they took. We will be still and listen for the Voice of healing |
| W1:153.4 | all the prices which the ego would exact. In them lies madness in a | form so grim that hope of sanity seems but to be an idle dream, |
| W1:153.15 | Today we practice in a | form we will maintain for quite a while. We will begin each day by |
| W1:157.8 | The time will come when you will not return in the same | form in which you now appear, for you will have no need of it. Yet |
| W1:158.9 | lies beyond them comes to take their place. It matters not what | form they took nor how enormous they appeared to be nor who seemed to |
| W1:161.5 | at last puts out our life. Yet bodies are but symbols of a concrete | form of fear. Fear without symbols calls for no response, for symbols |
| W1:161.7 | must be a thing to be attacked. An enemy must be perceived in such a | form he can be touched and seen and heard and ultimately killed. When |
| W1:161.9 | his reality. And in Christ's vision is his loveliness reflected in a | form so holy and so beautiful that you could scarce refrain from |
| W1:161.11 | Today we practice in a | form we have attempted earlier. Your readiness is closer now, and you |
| W1:161.12 | salvation of him. See him first as clearly as you can in that same | form to which you are accustomed. See his face, his hands and feet, |
| W1:163.6 | It is impossible to worship death in any | form and still select a few you would not cherish and would yet avoid |
| W1:163.8 | them this today. There is no death, and we renounce it now in every | form for their salvation and our own as well. God made not death. |
| W1:163.8 | their salvation and our own as well. God made not death. Whatever | form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the stand we take |
| W1:167.4 | own origin, apart from it in kind as well as distance, time, and | form. |
| W1:167.7 | The opposite of life can only be another | form of life. As such, it can be reconciled with what created it |
| W1:167.7 | with what created it because it is not opposite in truth. Its | form may change; it may appear to be what it is not. Yet mind is |
| W1:167.10 | dreams an opposite to what he is? We will not ask for death in any | form today. Nor will we let imagined opposites to life abide even an |
| W1:170.12 | you have chosen that this cruel god remain with you in still another | form, and so the fear of God returned with you. This time you leave |
| W1:181.5 | recognize that we have lost this goal if anger blocks our way in any | form. And if a brother's sins occur to us, our narrowed focus will |
| W1:185.1 | an instant, there would be no further sorrow possible for you in any | form, in any place or time. Heaven would be completely given back to |
| W1:185.3 | gain to loss and loss to gain takes on a different aspect or another | form. |
| W1:185.4 | Yet compromise alone a dream can bring. Sometimes it takes the | form of union, but only the form. The meaning must escape the dream, |
| W1:185.4 | dream can bring. Sometimes it takes the form of union, but only the | form. The meaning must escape the dream, for compromising is the goal |
| W1:185.5 | are one to him. And he has learned their only difference is one of | form, for one will bring the same despair and misery as do the rest. |
| W1:185.6 | wish for peace is genuine, the means for finding it are given in a | form each mind which seeks for it in honesty can understand. Whatever |
| W1:185.6 | each mind which seeks for it in honesty can understand. Whatever | form the lesson takes is planned for him in such a way that he cannot |
| W1:185.6 | his asking is sincere. And if he asks without sincerity, there is no | form in which the lesson will meet with acceptance and be truly |
| W1:185.8 | happiness. But be you not dismayed by lingering illusions, for their | form is not what matters now. Let not some dreams be more acceptable, |
| W1:186.9 | on what he is. They blow across his mind like windswept leaves that | form a patterning an instant, break apart to group again, and scamper |
| W1:186.13 | not. For Love must give, and what is given in His Name takes on the | form most useful in a world of form. |
| W1:186.13 | is given in His Name takes on the form most useful in a world of | form. |
| W1:186.14 | they come from Formlessness Itself. Forgiveness is an earthly | form of love which as it is in Heaven has no form. Yet what is needed |
| W1:186.14 | is an earthly form of love which as it is in Heaven has no | form. Yet what is needed here is given here as it is needed. In this |
| W1:186.14 | form. Yet what is needed here is given here as it is needed. In this | form, you can fulfill your function even here, although what love |
| W1:187.2 | give ideas away, you strengthen them in your own mind. Perhaps the | form in which the thought seems to appear is changed in giving. Yet |
| W1:187.2 | changed in giving. Yet it must return to him who gives. Nor can the | form it takes be less acceptable. It must be more. |
| W1:187.4 | thought you did not have is thereby proven yours. Yet value not its | form. For this will change and grow unrecognizable in time, however |
| W1:187.4 | unrecognizable in time, however much you try to keep it safe. No | form endures. It is the thought behind the form of things that lives |
| W1:187.4 | try to keep it safe. No form endures. It is the thought behind the | form of things that lives unchangeable. |
| W1:187.5 | both must gain in this exchange, for each will have the thought in | form most helpful to him. What he seems to lose is always something |
| W1:187.8 | correct it. Given first to you, it now is yours to give as well. No | form of sacrifice and suffering can long endure before the face of |
| W1:187.9 | look. The blessedness you will behold will take away all thought of | form and leave instead the perfect gift forever there, forever to |
| W1:187.11 | everything we see. For where we see it, it will be returned to us in | form of lilies we can lay upon our altar, making it a home for |
| W1:189.2 | you came, and sings your praises as it keeps you safe from every | form of danger and of pain. It offers you a warm and gentle home in |
| W1:190.1 | Pain is a wrong perspective. When it is experienced in any | form, it is a proof of self-deception. It is not a fact at all. There |
| W1:190.1 | is a proof of self-deception. It is not a fact at all. There is no | form it takes which will not disappear if seen aright. For pain |
| W1:190.1 | aright. For pain proclaims God cruel. How could it be real in any | form? It witnesses to God the Father's hatred of His Son, the |
| W1:190.8 | Pain is the thought of evil taking | form and working havoc in your holy mind. Pain is the ransom you have |
| W1:192.3 | the closest it can come to earth. For being Heaven-borne, it has no | form at all. Yet God created One Who has the power to translate into |
| W1:192.3 | form at all. Yet God created One Who has the power to translate into | form the wholly formless. What He makes are dreams, but of a kind so |
| W1:193.3 | no sin is possible. And yet He let His holy law of Love be given | form in which it could be offered to the world. And He created One |
| W1:193.3 | be offered to the world. And He created One Who could perceive what | form this law should take, to be received by every mind which had |
| W1:193.5 | Each lesson has a central thought, the same in all of them. The | form alone is changed, with different circumstances and events, with |
| W1:193.7 | to be but unforgiveness. Yet that is the content underneath the | form. It is this sameness which makes learning sure because the |
| W1:193.16 | in the days to come, in practicing the lesson in forgiveness in the | form established for the day. And try to give it application to the |
| W1:193.20 | To every apprehension, every care, and every | form of suffering, repeat these selfsame words. And then you hold the |
| W1:196.6 | Such is the | form of madness you believe if you accept the fearful thought you can |
| W1:196.6 | thought you can attack another and be free yourself. Until this | form is changed, there is no hope. Until you see that this, at least, |
| W1:196.7 | To question it at all, its | form must first be changed at least as much as will permit fear of |
| W1:198.11 | Do not forget today that there can be no | form of suffering that fails to hide an unforgiving thought. Nor can |
| W1:198.11 | that fails to hide an unforgiving thought. Nor can there be a | form of pain forgiveness cannot heal. |
| W1:199.4 | need the Holy Spirit sees. For this, the body will appear as useful | form for what the mind must do. It thus becomes a vehicle which helps |
| W1:R6.1 | would be enough to give release to you and to the world from every | form of bondage and invite the memory of God to come again. |
| W1:R6.5 | and a repetition of the special thought we practice for the day, no | form of exercise is urged except a deep relinquishment of everything |
| W2:240.1 | Not one thing in this world is true. It does not matter what the | form in which it may appear. It witnesses but to your own illusions |
| W2:WIE.1 | death. It is the will that sees the Will of God as enemy and takes a | form in which It is denied. The ego is the “proof” that strength is |
| W2:345.1 | me, reminding me the law of love is universal. Even here it takes a | form which can be recognized and seen to work. The miracles I give |
| W2:345.1 | and seen to work. The miracles I give are given back in just the | form I need to help me with the problems I perceive. Father, in |
| W2:358.1 | is mine as well, and all I want is what You offer me, in just the | form You chose that it be mine. Let me remember all I do not know, |
| M:1.3 | There is a course for every teacher of God. The | form of the course varies greatly. So do the particular teaching aids |
| M:1.4 | manual for a special curriculum, intended for teachers of a special | form of the universal course. There are many thousands of other |
| M:2.1 | as he has answered the Call. They were chosen for him, because the | form of the universal curriculum that he will teach is best for them |
| M:2.3 | emphasizes, you are not free to choose the curriculum or even the | form in which you will learn it. You are free, however, to decide |
| M:5.3 | his Father over him. It represents the ultimate defiance in a direct | form which the Son of God is forced to recognize. It stands for all |
| M:5.5 | is. Special agents seem to be ministering to him, yet they but give | form to his own choice. He chooses them to bring tangible form to his |
| M:5.5 | but give form to his own choice. He chooses them to bring tangible | form to his desires. And it is this they do, and nothing else. They |
| M:5.5 | up without their aid and say, “I have no use for this.” There is no | form of sickness that would not be cured at once. |
| M:7.4 | because of the appearance of continuing symptoms is a mistake in the | form of lack of trust. As such, it is an attack. Usually it seems to |
| M:7.4 | coexist. And hate must be the opposite of love, regardless of the | form it takes. Doubt not the gift, and it is impossible to doubt its |
| M:7.5 | there is a guilty embarrassment stemming from false humility. The | form of the mistake is not important. What is important is only the |
| M:7.6 | The mistake is always some | form of concern with the self to the exclusion of the patient. It is |
| M:17.1 | in this is not to attack it. If a magic thought arouses anger in any | form, God's teacher can be sure that he is strengthening his own |

| W1:R3.5 | The | format you should use for these reviews is this: devote five minutes |
| W1:R4.10 | which He has laid in it for you to have of Him. And we will use no | format for our practicing but this: |
formed (6) | ||
| Tx:15.52 | Everyone on earth has | formed special relationships, and although this is not so in Heaven, |
| Tx:15.74 | Whenever you are angry, you can be sure that you have | formed a special relationship which the ego has “blessed,” for anger |
| Tx:17.18 | begins to fade and to be questioned almost at once. Once it is | formed, doubt must enter in because its purpose is impossible. The |
| Tx:17.19 | of excluding even the one with whom the union was sought. For it was | formed to get him out of it and join with fantasies in uninterrupted |
| W1:95.5 | the short applications of the idea for the day, and you have not yet | formed the habit of using it as an automatic response to temptation. |
| M:3.5 | third level of teaching occurs in relationships which, once they are | formed, are lifelong. These are teaching-learning situations in which |
former (10) | ||
| Tx:1.106 | turn produced tyranny. I told you that you are now restored to your | former role in the plan of Atonement, but you must still choose |
| Tx:4.47 | on inhibiting the latter, but salvation depends on disinhibiting the | former. The reason you need my help is because you have repressed |
| Tx:5.77 | in later generations retains the power to interpret correctly what | former generations have thought and thus release their thoughts from |
| Tx:7.20 | can you validly compare responses, and you must assume the | former, because if the latter were true, the subject would not do |
| Tx:8.97 | either that there is no God or that God's Will is fearful. The | former accounts for the atheist and the latter for the martyr. |
| Tx:17.46 | relationship has not as yet been changed sufficiently to make its | former goal completely without attraction, and its structure is |
| Tx:17.47 | of the relationship may even become quite disorganized. And yet, the | former organization of their perception no longer serves the purpose |
| Tx:17.49 | thus—substitute for this another relationship to which your | former goal was quite appropriate. You can escape from your distress |
| W1:121.12 | a friend. Try to transfer the light you learned to see around your | former “enemy” to him. Perceive him now as more than friend to you, |
| M:10.1 | and “bad” judgment, and his education aims at strengthening the | former and minimizing the latter. There is, however, considerable |

| M:4.24 | never have conceived of such a change. Nothing is now as it was | formerly. Nothing but sparkles now which seemed so dull and lifeless |
formless (3) | ||
| W1:44.10 | if not actually entering into light. Try to think of light, | formless and without limit, as you pass by the thoughts of this |
| W1:192.3 | God created One Who has the power to translate into form the wholly | formless. What He makes are dreams, but of a kind so close to waking |
| W2:314.1 | on it, so that fear has lost its idols and its images, and being | formless, it has no effects. Death will not claim the future now, for |
formlessness (2) | ||
| W1:186.14 | These are the forms which never can deceive, although they come from | Formlessness Itself. Forgiveness is an earthly form of love which as |
| W1:186.14 | your function even here, although what love will mean to you when | formlessness has been restored to you is greater still. Salvation of |
forms (158) | ||
| Tx:1.106 | Fantasies of any kind are distorted | forms of thinking, because they always involve twisting perception |
| Tx:2.54 | in matter which the mind cannot control. This error can take two | forms—it can be believed that the mind can miscreate in the body or |
| Tx:2.62 | or the miscreative use of the mind. Physical medications are | forms of “spells.” Those who are afraid to use the mind to heal |
| Tx:2.64 | and has literally upset it (or turned it upside-down). All | forms of not-right-mindedness are the result of refusal to accept the |
| Tx:2.92 | himself because he is afraid of his own thoughts. In some | forms of insanity, thoughts are glorified, but this is only because |
| Tx:3.5 | what has been created and what is being created is essential. All | forms of correction (or healing) rest on this fundamental correction |
| Tx:3.14 | give this one up because of its prominent “escape” value. In milder | forms a parent says, “This hurts me more than it hurts you,” and |
| Tx:3.18 | Good can withstand any form of evil because light abolishes all | forms of darkness. The Atonement is thus the perfect lesson. It is |
| Tx:4.15 | The ego tries to exploit all situations into | forms of praise for itself in order to overcome its doubts. It will |
| Tx:4.40 | inventiveness is really wasted effort, even in its most ingenious | forms. We do not have to explain anything. This is why we need not |
| Tx:4.95 | are quite specific in their own judgment. For example, although all | forms of perceived demands may be classified or judged by the ego as |
| Tx:6.24 | for their joint salvation. Each one must learn to teach that all | forms of rejection are utterly meaningless. The separation is the |
| Tx:8.82 | Wholeness heals because it is of the mind. All | forms of sickness, even unto death, are physical expressions of the |
| Tx:8.88 | is sickness. Yet sickness is not of the body, but of the mind. All | forms of dysfunction are merely signs that the mind has split and |
| Tx:8.97 | for the atheist and the latter for the martyr. Martyrdom takes many | forms, the category including all doctrines which hold that God |
| Tx:8.108 | what you want, even if it is. This accounts for why certain specific | forms of healing are not achieved, even though the state of healing |
| Tx:9.23 | The newer | forms of the ego's plan are as unhelpful as the older ones, because |
| Tx:9.23 | Spirit and therefore does not matter at all. According to the newer | forms of the ego's plan, the therapist interprets the ego's symbols |
| Tx:9.26 | nor can an “unimportant mind” esteem itself without magic. Both | forms of the ego's approach, then, must arrive at an impasse, the |
| Tx:9.77 | worship the same idol he does. God created love, not idolatry. All | forms of idolatry are caricatures of creation, taught by sick minds |
| Tx:9.93 | sense is very literal; denial of life perceives its opposite, as all | forms of denial replace what is with what is not. No one can really |
| Tx:9.95 | made him out of your insanity, he is an insane idea. He has many | forms, but although he may seem like many different things he is but |
| Tx:9.104 | to feel depressed. All of these illusions and the many other | forms which blasphemy may take are refusals to accept creation as it |
| Tx:10.34 | light. Remember also that the denial of this simple fact takes many | forms, and these you must learn to recognize and to oppose |
| Tx:12.33 | it is extended, for it increases as it is given. The other has many | forms, for the content of individual illusions differs greatly. Yet |
| Tx:13.56 | all the distortions you have made of nothing—all the strange | forms and feelings and actions and reactions that you have woven out |
| Tx:13.62 | nothing. The key is only the light which shines away the shapes and | forms and fears of nothing. Accept this key to freedom from the hands |
| Tx:14.7 | yourself with active willingness to the denial of guilt in all its | forms. To accuse is not to understand. The happy learners of the |
| Tx:15.74 | the ego has “blessed,” for anger is its blessing. Anger takes many | forms, but it cannot long deceive those who will learn that love |
| Tx:15.95 | like many, but it is all the same. For though the ego takes many | forms, it is always the same idea. What is not love is always fear |
| Tx:15.95 | by which it burrows underground and hides in darkness, to emerge in | forms quite different from what it is. Yet it is necessary to examine |
| Tx:18.3 | both a fragmented and a fragmenting emotion. It seems to take many | forms, and each seems to require a different form of acting out for |
| Tx:18.4 | that God is fear made but one substitution. It has taken many | forms because it was the substitution of illusion for truth, of |
| Tx:18.19 | in dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking dreams have different | forms, and that is all. Their content is the same. They are your |
| Tx:18.25 | shrinking from the truth, sometimes retreating to the lesser | forms of fear and sometimes to stark terror. But you will advance |
| Tx:18.91 | all there. Figures stand out and move about, actions seem real, and | forms appear and shift from loveliness to the grotesque. And back and |
| Tx:22.35 | Only mistakes have different | forms, and so they can deceive. You can change form because it is not |
| Tx:23.17 | is remembered except illusions. Illusions can conflict because their | forms are different. And they do battle only to establish which form |
| Tx:23.34 | No one who thinks that one of them is true sees what it says. Some | forms it takes seem to have meaning, and that is all. |
| Tx:23.35 | How can some | forms of murder not mean death? Can an attack in any form be love? |
| Tx:23.37 | and yet perceived as an eternal barrier to Heaven. Illusions are but | forms. Their content is never true. |
| Tx:23.38 | The laws of chaos govern all illusions. Their | forms conflict, making it seem quite possible to value some above the |
| Tx:23.38 | a certain witness that these laws are true. The seeming gentler | forms of the attack are no less certain in their witnessing or their |
| Tx:23.41 | Is it not true you do not recognize some of the | forms attack can take? If it is true attack in any form will hurt you |
| Tx:23.45 | forgiveness side by side with the belief that murder takes some | forms by which their peace is saved? Would they be willing to accept |
| Tx:23.51 | is not real and easily escaped. Bodies may battle, but the clash of | forms is meaningless. And it is over when you realize it never was |
| Tx:23.52 | and murderous, remember you can see the battle from above. Even in | forms you do not recognize, the signs you know. There is a stab of |
| Tx:24.5 | though unrecognized, is faith in specialness. This takes many | forms but always clashes with the reality of God's creation and with |
| Tx:25.35 | the light. They linger for a while, a little while, in twisted | forms too far away for recognition and are gone forever. And in the |
| Tx:25.77 | justice can prevail for you. And you are safe from vengeance in all | forms. The world deceives, but it cannot replace God's justice with a |
| Tx:26.10 | form the problem seems to take. A problem can appear in many | forms, and it will do so while the problem lasts. It serves no |
| Tx:26.48 | It cannot be perceived, but only known. What is perceived takes many | forms, but none has meaning. Brought to truth, its senselessness is |
| Tx:26.49 | God given answer to the world of sickness which applies to all its | forms. God's answer is eternal, though it operates in time where it |
| Tx:26.61 | of effect without the cause can merely shift effects to other | forms. And this is not release. God's Son could never be content with |
| Tx:26.68 | separate. For time and space are one illusion which takes different | forms. If it has been projected beyond your minds, you think of it as |
| Tx:26.86 | What does it mean if you perceive attack in certain | forms to be unfair to you? It means that there must be some forms in |
| Tx:26.86 | certain forms to be unfair to you? It means that there must be some | forms in which you think it fair. For otherwise, how could some be |
| Tx:27.50 | Problems are not specific, but they take specific | forms, and these specific shapes make up the world. And no one |
| Tx:27.50 | This is because they really are the same despite their different | forms. All learning aims at transfer, which becomes complete within |
| Tx:27.78 | The dreaming of the world takes many | forms, because the body seeks in many ways to prove it is autonomous |
| Tx:27.79 | change nor will its purpose. Though the dream itself takes many | forms and seems to show a great variety of places and events wherein |
| Tx:27.83 | a separate brother as an enemy; a mind within a body, all are | forms of circularity whose ending starts at its beginning, ending at |
| Tx:27.89 | Bring, then, all | forms of suffering to Him Who knows that every one is like the rest. |
| Tx:28.45 | recognized as being part of the completed picture of God's Son! The | forms the broken pieces seem to take mean nothing. For the whole is |
| Tx:28.53 | in fog, and misty pictures rise to cover it with vague, uncertain | forms and changing shapes, forever unsubstantial and unsure. Yet in |
| Tx:28.63 | are based upon this choice and given you the instant it is made. No | forms of sickness are immune because the choice cannot be made in |
| Tx:29.54 | its source. Nor is its form apart from the idea it represents. All | forms of anti-Christ oppose the Christ and fall before His face like |
| Tx:29.59 | with hope of finding more of something else. Be not deceived by | forms the “something” takes. An idol is a means for getting more. And |
| Tx:29.67 | forgiving dreams can enter here, for time is almost over. And the | forms which enter in the dream are now perceived as brothers, not in |
| Tx:30.38 | terms of form. Idols are limits. They are the belief that there are | forms which will bring happiness and that, by limiting, is all |
| Tx:30.41 | have no meaning. And your will could not be satisfied with empty | forms made but to fill a gap which is not there. It is not this you |
| Tx:30.47 | the dreams of birth and death that here are dreamed, the myriad of | forms that fear can take; quite undisturbed, the Thought God holds of |
| Tx:30.51 | The gap that is not there is filled with toys in countless | forms. And each one seems to break the rules you set for it. It never |
| Tx:30.75 | surer proof idolatry is what you wish than a belief there are some | forms of sickness and of joylessness forgiveness cannot heal. This |
| Tx:30.76 | It must be true the miracle can heal all | forms of sickness, or it cannot heal. Its purpose cannot be to judge |
| Tx:30.76 | of sickness, or it cannot heal. Its purpose cannot be to judge which | forms are real and which appearances are true. If one appearance must |

| Tx:30.78 | him if you think he does not merit the escape from guilt in all its | forms and all its consequence. There is no way to think of him but |
| Tx:30.80 | Here is the joyful statement that there are no | forms of evil which can overcome the Will of God—the glad |
| Tx:30.90 | the appearance of his perfect health, his perfect freedom from all | forms of lack, and safety from disaster of all kinds. The miracle is |
| Tx:30.91 | be the wish that no reality be so. Yet it is an assertion that some | forms of idols have a powerful appeal which makes them harder to |

| Tx:31.38 | for different pathways in the world is but the search for different | forms of truth. And this would keep the truth from being reached. |
| Tx:31.40 | than that the power of decision cannot lie in choosing different | forms of what is still the same illusion and the same mistake. All |
| Tx:31.58 | The role of the accuser will appear in many places and in many | forms. And each will seem to be accusing you. Yet have no fear it |
| Tx:31.83 | Temptation has one lesson it would teach in all its | forms wherever it occurs. It would persuade the holy Son of God he is |
| W1:5.1 | depression, anxiety, anger, hatred, jealousy, or any number of | forms, all of which will be perceived as different. This is not true. |
| W1:5.4 | search your mind for “sources” of upset in which you believe and | forms of upset which you think result. |
| W1:5.10 | more than a minute or so, and try to identify a number of different | forms of upset that are disturbing you, regardless of the relative |
| W1:9.2 | disturbing and may meet with active resistance in any number of | forms. Yet that does not preclude applying it. No more than that is |
| W1:15.3 | you may have many “light episodes.” They may take many different | forms, some of them quite unexpected. Do not be afraid of them. They |
| W1:16.3 | destructive but equally unreal. We will practice this idea in many | forms before you really understand it. |
| W1:21.3 | This is not so. It is merely an example of the belief that some | forms of attack are more justified than others. |
| W1:21.4 | As you search your mind for all the | forms in which attack thoughts present themselves, hold each one in |
| W1:41.2 | forever. And foolishness it is, despite the serious and tragic | forms it may take. Deep within you is everything that is perfect, |
| W1:50.1 | being liked, knowing the “right” people, and an endless list of | forms of nothingness which you endow with magical powers. All these |
| W1:64.11 | Two | forms of shorter practice periods are required. At times, do the |
| W1:66.1 | more than just a connection between them; they are the same. Their | forms are different, but their content is completely one. |
| W1:66.11 | during the longer practice period today. Think also about the many | forms which the illusion of your function has taken in your mind and |
| W1:79.5 | appears to hold. They seem to be on so many levels, in such varying | forms, and with such varied content that they confront you with an |
| W1:80.3 | certain you do not forget that all problems are the same. Their many | forms will not deceive you while you remember this. One problem—one |
| W1:R2.5 | application and a more specific form when needed. Some specific | forms will be included in the comments. These, however, are merely |
| W1:81.3 | Some specific | forms for applying today's idea when specific difficulties seem to |

| W1:134.7 | It sees their nothingness and looks right through the thousand | forms in which they may appear. It looks on lies but it is not |
| W1:135.15 | at the cost of truth. This is not difficult to realize in some | forms which these self-deceptions take, for the denial of reality is |
| W1:138.6 | with it, for all decisions but conceal this one by taking different | forms. Here is the final and the only choice in which is truth |
| W1:140.1 | no separation from the body, where it thinks the mind exists. Its | forms of healing thus must substitute illusion for illusion. One |
| W1:140.4 | that sickness can be nothing but a dream is not deceived by | forms the dream may take. Sickness where guilt is absent cannot come, |
| W1:140.9 | no degrees and no beliefs that what does not exist is truer in some | forms than others. All of them are false and can be cured because |
| W1:R4.5 | Let us begin our preparation with some understanding of the many | forms in which the lack of true forgiveness may be carefully |
| W1:163.1 | Death is a thought which takes on many | forms, often unrecognized. It may appear as sadness, fear, anxiety, |
| W1:163.1 | faithlessness, and lack of trust; concern for bodies, envy, and all | forms in which the wish to be as you are not may come to tempt you. |
| W1:167.2 | call it death. Yet we have learned that the idea of death takes many | forms. It is the one idea which underlies all feelings that are not |
| W1:170.9 | make another idol to replace it? For the god of cruelty takes many | forms. Another can be found. |
| W1:185.9 | with every twist and turning of the road to reappear unrecognized in | forms which shift and change with every step you take. |
| W1:186.14 | These are the | forms which never can deceive, although they come from Formlessness |
| W1:187.6 | at the idea of sacrifice. Nor can he fail to recognize the many | forms which sacrifice may take. He laughs as well at pain and loss, |
| W1:187.7 | as what it is. The thought of sacrifice gives rise to all the | forms that suffering appears to take. And sacrifice is an idea so mad |
| W1:193.7 | forever from a truth so very obvious that it appears in countless | forms and yet is recognized as easily in all of them if one but wants |
| W1:193.9 | your tribulations, all your pain, all suffering regardless of its | forms. These are the words with which temptation ends and guilt, |
| W1:200.4 | You have not found your happiness in foreign places and in alien | forms which have no meaning to you, though you sought to make them |
| W1:R6.6 | We will attempt to get beyond all words and special | forms of practicing for this review. For we attempt this time to |
| W2:262.1 | today. He is Your one creation. Why should I perceive a thousand | forms in what remains as one? Why should I give this one a thousand |
| W2:268.1 | attempt to interfere with Your creation and distort it into sickly | forms. Let me be willing to withdraw my wishes from its unity and |
| W2:293.1 | with all my past mistakes oppressing it and showing me distorted | forms of pain? Yet in the present, love is obvious and its effects |
| W2:295.1 | all of us must be redeemed together. Fear appears in many different | forms, but love is one. |
| M:1.4 | form of the universal course. There are many thousands of other | forms, all with the same outcome. They merely save time. Yet it is |
| M:5.5 | the body is the basis of healing. And this is so for healing in all | forms. A patient decides that this is so, and he recovers. If he |
| M:5.10 | Not once do the advanced teachers of God consider the | forms of sickness in which their brother believes. To do this is to |
| M:7.5 | for only such a self can be doubted. This illusion can take many | forms. Perhaps there is a fear of weakness and vulnerability. Perhaps |
| M:12.2 | from each other? What does it matter if they then appear in many | forms? Their minds are one; their joining is complete. And God works |
| M:16.9 | this goal nearer to recognition. For magic of any kind, in all its | forms, simply does nothing. Its powerlessness is the reason it can be |
| M:16.11 | every minute and second, must God's teachers learn to recognize the | forms of magic and perceive their meaninglessness. Fear is withdrawn |
| M:22.4 | but it is rarely, if ever, consistently applied to all specific | forms of sickness, both in the individual's perception of himself and |
| M:22.6 | circumstances. And in it is the power to heal all individuals of all | forms of sickness. Not to believe this is to be unfair to God and |
| M:28.5 | have seen the face of Christ, His sinlessness, His love behind all | forms, beyond all purposes. Holy are we because His holiness has set |

| Tx:6.21 | that I did not. The “punishment” which I am said to have called | forth upon Judas was a similar reversal. Judas was my brother and a |
| Tx:11.38 | The ego will therefore distort love and teach you that love calls | forth the responses which the ego can teach. Follow its teaching, |

| Tx:12.42 | Spirit's manifestation, looking always on the real world and calling | forth its witnesses and drawing them unto you. For He loves what He |
| Tx:12.51 | and call His witnesses to shine on you because you called them | forth. And they will not deny the truth in you because you looked for |
| Tx:12.52 | for the light to the Creator of light. The holy light that shines | forth from God's Son is the witness that his light is of his Father. |
| Tx:12.53 | remembrance of your Creator, for you will remember Him as you call | forth the witnesses to His creation. Those whom you heal bear witness |
| Tx:12.55 | you can give it, as it was given you. And as you give it, it shines | forth to call you from the world and follow it. For this light will |
| Tx:13.37 | is perfectly unambiguous. Everything is clear and bright and calls | forth one response. There is no darkness, and there is no contrast. |
| Tx:14.42 | a spotless mirror in which the Holiness of your Creator shines | forth from you to all around you. You can reflect Heaven here. Yet no |
| Tx:14.43 | It is clear. Clean but the mirror, and the message which shines | forth from what the mirror holds out for everyone to see no one can |
| Tx:14.45 | is always the same. There is no contradiction in what holiness calls | forth. Its one response is healing, without regard for what is |
| Tx:15.10 | From this holy instant wherein holiness was born again, you will go | forth in time without fear and with no sense of change with time. |
| Tx:15.34 | Call | forth in everyone only the remembrance of God and of the Heaven that |
| Tx:17.67 | meet the goal that has been set. The goal's reality will call this | forth, for you will see that peace and faith will not come |
| Tx:17.69 | must its faith go everywhere with it. The goal's reality will call | forth and accomplish every miracle needed for its fulfillment. |
| Tx:17.72 | call the others to share your purpose, as this same purpose called | forth the faith in you. And you will see the means you once employed |
| Tx:17.74 | purpose has given it is also given to every situation. It calls | forth just the same suspension of faithlessness, withheld and left |
| Tx:17.75 | asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it enter, and it will call | forth and secure for you the faith you need for peace. But rise you |
| Tx:18.86 | bear witness to this world, pronouncing it as true. For you sent | forth these messengers to bring this back to you. |
| Tx:18.91 | appear and shift from loveliness to the grotesque. And back and | forth they go, as long as you would play the game of children's |
| Tx:19.12 | its justification. It is the messenger of the new perception sent | forth to gather witnesses unto its coming and to return their |
| Tx:19.14 | to you who stand together before the altar from which they were sent | forth. |
| Tx:19.41 | that is the first obstacle the peace in you encounters in its going | forth. This little wall of hatred would still oppose the Will of God |
| Tx:19.49 | that love looks on itself. And each has messengers which they send | forth and which return to them with messages written in the language |

| Tx:19.53 | to you what they hold dear as are the others. If you send them | forth, they will see only the blameless and the beautiful, the gentle |
| Tx:19.54 | If you send | forth only the messengers the Holy Spirit gives you, wanting no |
| Tx:19.54 | to replace the hungry dogs of fear you sent instead. And they go | forth to signify the end of fear. |
| Tx:19.63 | obstacles which you would interpose between peace and its going | forth but barriers you place between your will and its |
| Tx:19.66 | offered you in gratitude for giving peace its home in Heaven. Send | forth to all the world the joyous message of the end of guilt, and |
| Tx:19.69 | And these conditions are the home of the emotion which called them | forth and therefore is compatible with them. But think you which it |
| Tx:20.9 | share also His vision. And what enables Him to see His purpose shine | forth from every altar now is yours as well as His. He sees no |
| Tx:24.32 | there beside the bier on which they sleep and call them to come | forth and waken from their dream of death. Yet they hear nothing. |
| Tx:24.54 | see from you. Your brother's body shows not Christ to you. He is set | forth within his holiness. |
| Tx:24.55 | brother's holiness that you might see the truth about yourself set | forth at last in terms you recognized and understood? |
| Tx:24.60 | truth as God established it no sacrifice is asked, no strain called | forth, and all the power of Heaven and the might of truth itself is |
| Tx:24.61 | of specialness heard clearly, judging against the Christ and setting | forth for you the purpose that you can attain and what you cannot do. |
| Tx:25.2 | him within his holiness, as plain to see as is his specialness set | forth within his body. |
| Tx:25.3 | thinks it is a body is sick indeed! And it is here that Christ sets | forth the remedy. His purpose folds the body in His light and fills |
| Tx:25.19 | your brother as his Father's Mind shows him to you. He will step | forth from darkness as you look on him, and you will see the dark no |
| Tx:25.19 | dark no more. The darkness touched him not, nor you who brought him | forth for you to look upon. His sinlessness but pictures yours. His |
| Tx:25.73 | not see his worth at all. What honest witnesses could they call | forth to speak on his behalf? And who would come to plead for him and |
| Tx:26.9 | your special function to ensure the door be opened that he may come | forth to shine on you and give you back the gift of freedom by |
| Tx:26.15 | you could not will he suffer loss. The miracle of justice you call | forth will rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:26.40 | God remembers not and is not there? Now you are shifting back and | forth between the past and present. Sometimes the past seems real, as |
| Tx:27.7 | other than this one. These are the witnesses that are called | forth to be believed and lend conviction to the system they speak for |
| Tx:27.11 | of death. Let it have healing as its purpose. Then will it send | forth the message it received and by its health and loveliness |
| Tx:27.44 | that it can begin. Accept the miracle of healing, and it will go | forth because of what it is. It is its nature to extend itself the |
| Tx:27.49 | from you who let yourself be healed that it might live. It will call | forth its witnesses to show the face of Christ to you who brought the |
| Tx:27.56 | know. It tells you but the names you gave it to use when you call | forth the witnesses to its reality. You cannot choose among them |
| Tx:27.59 | And they attest to different sufferings. Yet to the One Who sends | forth miracles to bless the world, a tiny stab of pain, a little |
| Tx:28.56 | and fear and loathe and want, the body does not know. You send it | forth to seek for separation and to be a separate thing. And then you |
| Tx:29.23 | There, in its place, God's Witness has set | forth the gentle way of kindness to God's Son. Whom you forgive is |
| Tx:30.92 | beyond the hope of change is that the miracle cannot come | forth from you consistently. For you have asked it be withheld from |
| Tx:31.78 | within and thus expect to see it everywhere. And so they call it | forth in everyone they look upon that he may be what they expect of |
| Tx:31.97 | the only Source it has. Clear in Your Likeness does the Light shine | forth from everything that lives and moves in You. For we have |
| W1:I.1 | to train the mind to think along the lines which the course sets | forth. |
| W1:42.1 | two very powerful thoughts, both of major importance. It also sets | forth a cause and effect relationship which explains why you cannot |

| W1:75.10 | in certainty to look upon the world He promised you. From this time | forth you will see differently. Today the light has come. And you |
| W1:76.9 | Perhaps you even think that there are laws which set | forth what is God's and what is yours. Many “religions” have been |
| W1:94.11 | a milestone in learning the thought system which this course sets | forth. |
| W1:129.5 | its place as you unbind your mind from little things the world sets | forth to keep you prisoner there. Value them not, and they will |
| W1:137.12 | will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing will this day go | forth from what is healed to what must yet be healed, aware that they |
| W1:155.2 | but to let illusion sink behind the truth and let the truth stand | forth as what it is, is simple sanity. |
| W1:155.7 | which will remain impossible. All this steps back as truth comes | forth in you to lead your brothers from the ways of death and set |
| W1:155.11 | will be no wish to be illusion rather than the truth. And we step | forth toward this as we progress along the way that truth points out |
| W1:157.5 | From this day | forth, your ministry takes on a genuine devotion and a glow that |
| W1:161.11 | will not be willing to accept the witnesses your body's eyes call | forth. What you will see will sing to you of ancient melodies you |
| W1:R5.1 | made us walk uncertainly and slowly on the road this course sets | forth. But now we hasten on, for we approach a greater certainty, a |
| W1:I2.1 | give your total willingness to following the way the course sets | forth. |
| W2:325.1 | a world condemned. And from forgiving thoughts a gentle world comes | forth, with mercy for the holy Son of God, to offer him a kindly home |
| M:2.2 | it is necessary to grasp the concept of time which the course sets | forth. Atonement corrects illusions, not the truth. Therefore it |
| M:22.4 | as well. Nor is it at this level that the teacher of God calls | forth the miracle of healing. He overlooks the mind and body, seeing |
| M:23.1 | appeal to magic? A name does not heal, nor does an invocation call | forth any special power. What does it mean to call on Jesus Christ? |

| Tx:11.82 | that this world holds. Valuing nothing, you have sought nothing and | found nothing. By making nothing real to you, you have seen it. But |
| Tx:11.83 | You looked upon the unreal and | found despair. Yet by seeking the unreal, what else could you find? |
| Tx:11.93 | God is guiltless. He has always sought his guiltlessness, and he has | found it. For everyone is seeking to escape from the prison he has |
| Tx:11.93 | and the way to find release is not denied him. Being in him, he has | found it. When he finds it is only a matter of time, and time is but |
| Tx:12.21 | nothing and asked for nothing. In war he demanded everything and | found nothing. For how could the gentleness of love respond to his |

| Tx:13.23 | the past and still to see them as they really are? Salvation is not | found by those who use their brothers to resolve problems which are |
| Tx:14.25 | with truth. Truth is. It can be neither lost nor sought nor | found. It is there, wherever you are, being within you. Yet it can be |
| Tx:14.72 | peace, for peace and understanding go together and never can be | found alone. Each brings the other with it, for it is the law of God |
| Tx:15.24 | and constitutes a tribute to your power. You who have sought and | found littleness, remember this: Every decision which you make stems |
| Tx:17.50 | you of all the ways you once sought for satisfaction and thought you | found it. Forget not now the misery you really found, and do not now |
| Tx:17.50 | and thought you found it. Forget not now the misery you really | found, and do not now breathe life into your failing egos. For your |
| Tx:18.31 | journey which you undertook apart and which led nowhere. You have | found each other and will light each other's way. And from this light |
| Tx:19.22 | impenetrable. The solidness this world's foundation seems to have is | found in this. For sin has changed creation from an idea of God to an |
| Tx:19.25 | The attraction of guilt is | found in sin, not error. Sin will be repeated because of this |

| Tx:21.47 | the ego's rule has kept it out so long. Heaven has come because it | found a home in your relationship on earth. And earth can hold no |

| Tx:22.17 | The search for joy in misery is senseless, for how could joy be | found in misery? All that is possible in the dark world of misery is |

| Tx:25.13 | your choice, while you would seek for hope where none is ever | found. |
| Tx:25.14 | Is it not also true that you have | found some hope apart from this—some glimmering, inconstant, |
| Tx:25.35 | in innocence, and wholly unafraid. And from you will the rest you | found extend, so that your peace can never fall away and leave you |
| Tx:25.35 | away and leave you homeless. Those who offer peace to everyone have | found a home in Heaven the world cannot destroy. For it is large |
| Tx:25.40 | he has in truth, you are depriving him of all the joy he would have | found if he fulfilled the role God gave to him. But think not Heaven |
| Tx:25.64 | would find impossible. Have little faith that wisdom could be | found in such a state of mind. But be you thankful that only little |
| Tx:25.75 | the Holy Spirit's special function has been fulfilled. God's Son has | found a witness unto his sinlessness and not his sin. How little need |
| Tx:27.24 | Holy Spirit's mind and yours are one. And so your own Identity is | found. Yet must He work with what is given Him, and you allow Him |
| Tx:27.38 | will be no solution, for there is no answer there that could be | found. Nowhere outside a single simple question is ever asked. The |
| Tx:27.56 | a witness true because you called him by truth's name. The truth is | found in him if it is truth he represents. And otherwise he lies, if |
| Tx:28.17 | barrier or limitation. Thus is purity not of the body. Nor can it be | found where limitation is. The body can be healed by its effects, |
| Tx:28.20 | the world. No plans are possible and no design exists that could be | found and understood. |
| Tx:29.9 | a loss of self in finding God? Yet can your Self be lost by being | found? |
| Tx:29.16 | possible. To change is to attain a state unlike the one in which you | found yourself before. There is no change in immortality, and Heaven |
| Tx:29.32 | in him, for your Identity is there. The peace in you can but be | found in him. And every thought of love you offer him but brings you |
| Tx:29.37 | of change and betterment, for here is not where changelessness is | found. Let us be glad indeed that this is so and seek not the eternal |
| Tx:29.43 | fail, and you will weep each time an idol falls. Heaven cannot be | found where it is not, and there can be no peace excepting there. |
| Tx:29.43 | from a futile search for what you want, insisting where it must be | found. What if it is not there? Do you prefer that you be right or |
| Tx:29.44 | more than everything, as if a part of it were separated off and | found where all the rest of it is not. This is the purpose he bestows |

| Tx:31.17 | the other, and you join with him, and in your answer is salvation | found. The voice you hear in him is but your own. What does he ask |
| Tx:31.36 | all must undertake who still believe there is another answer to be | found. Learn now, without despair, there is no hope of answer in the |
| Tx:31.39 | Think not that happiness is ever | found by following a road away from it. This makes no sense and |
| Tx:31.39 | road that leads the other way will not advance the purpose to be | found. If this be difficult to understand, then is this course |
| Tx:31.42 | from madness and from death. Nowhere but where He is can you be | found. There is no path that does not lead to Him. |

| W1:70.12 | you can reach the light. But remember also that you have never | found anything in the cloud patterns you imagined that endured or |
| W1:73.5 | what is within. The source of neither light nor darkness can be | found without. Grievances darken your mind, and you look out on a |
| W1:76.2 | salvation. Look for it where it waits for you, and there it will be | found. Look nowhere else, for it is nowhere else. |

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

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

| Tx:5.49 | to give you the foundation, so your own thoughts can make you really | free. You have carried the burden of the ideas you did not share and |
| Tx:5.71 | changed your belief in your status. Yet your election is both | free and alterable. You do not belong in time. Your place is only in |
| Tx:5.72 | and pain for peace. My role is only to unchain your will and make it | free. Your ego cannot accept this freedom and will oppose your free |

| Tx:8.10 | because your will is free. That is why the ego is the denial of | free will. It is never God who coerces you because He shares His Will |
| Tx:8.11 | of your own freedom and makes you afraid of your will because it is | free. The Holy Spirit opposes any imprisoning of the will of a Son of |
| Tx:8.31 | our joint will, but my will alone cannot help you. Your will is as | free as mine, and God Himself would not go against it. I cannot will |
| Tx:8.33 | This means that you have imprisoned yours and have not let it be | free. Of yourselves you can do nothing, because of yourselves you are |
| Tx:8.33 | which is His Will for all His Sons. By offering freedom, you will be | free. |
| Tx:8.52 | You who are beloved of God are wholly blessed. Learn this of me, and | free the holy will of all those who are as blessed as you are. |
| Tx:8.68 | not allow yourselves to suffer from the results of what is not true. | Free your minds from the belief that this is possible. In its |
| Tx:8.78 | louder without violating your will, which the Holy Spirit seeks to | free but never to command. |
| Tx:9.89 | You are not | free to give up freedom, but only to deny it. You cannot do what God |

| Tx:10.82 | yours for the asking. Do not deny it to yourself, for it can only | free you. Nothing of God will enslave His Son, whom He created free |

| Tx:12.39 | it is unworthy of Him. Yet He would release you from it and set you | free. His sane answer tells you that what you have offered yourself |
| Tx:12.48 | and not allowing the miracle, which could intervene between them, to | free you to be born again. |
| Tx:12.49 | you, and unless you bring them with you, you will see that you are | free of them. |
| Tx:12.51 | you your brothers in the light that would unite you with them and | free you from the past. Would you, then, hold the past against them? |
| Tx:12.56 | Awakening unto Christ is following the laws of love of your | free will and out of quiet recognition of the truth in them. The |
| Tx:13.8 | as yourself, you will be released to knowledge, having learned to | free yourself of Him Who knows of freedom. Unite with me under the |
| Tx:13.11 | the future and the past, the laws of God must intervene if you would | free yourselves. Atonement stands between them like a lamp that |
| Tx:13.16 | of your own guilt. If you would have the Holy Spirit make you | free of it, accept His offer of Atonement for all your brothers. For |
| Tx:13.24 | one each day be born again. A minute, even less, will be enough to | free you from the past and give your mind in peace over to the |
| Tx:13.62 | knowledge in the Kingdom. All this lies in the Holy Spirit's plan to | free you from the past and open up the way to freedom for you. For |

| Tx:13.64 | The guiltless learner learns so easily because his thoughts are | free. Yet this entails the recognition that guilt is interference, |
| Tx:13.68 | and cannot both be true. You are guilty or guiltless, bound or | free, happy or unhappy. |
| Tx:13.69 | right, attesting to your happiness that comes from choosing to be | free of guilt. Everyone you offer healing to returns it. Everyone you |
| Tx:13.70 | it, he binds himself to darkness because he did not choose to | free his brother and enter light with him. By giving power to |
| Tx:13.77 | friend. He is the strong protector of your innocence, which sets you | free. And it is His decision to undo everything that would obscure |
| Tx:14.9 | suffering of every kind lie in it. Who is there but wishes to be | free of pain? He may not yet have learned how to exchange his guilt |
| Tx:14.63 | by which to recognize if what you learned is true. If you are wholly | free of fear of any kind, and if all those who meet or even think of |
| Tx:14.70 | He Who has freed you from the past would teach you are | free of it. He would but have you accept His accomplishments as yours |
| Tx:14.70 | them for you. And because he did, they are yours. He has made you | free of what you made. You can deny Him, but you cannot call on Him |
| Tx:15.9 | And the present extends forever. It is so beautiful and so clean and | free of guilt that nothing but happiness is there. No darkness is |
| Tx:15.10 | past, and it is here that you are completely absolved, completely | free, and wholly without condemnation. From this holy instant wherein |
| Tx:15.23 | there is no form of littleness that can ever content you. You are | free to try as many as you wish, but all you will be doing is to |
| Tx:15.53 | Holy Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the holy instant, | free of the past, you see that love is in you, and you have no need |
| Tx:15.61 | that he be bound or limited in any way. In this instant, he is as | free as God would have him be. For the instant he refuses to be |

| Tx:16.22 | You have taught freedom, but you have not learned how to be | free. We once said, “By their fruits ye shall know them, and they |

| Tx:17.38 | the picture that is the gift. And only on this basis are you really | free to choose. Look at the pictures. Both of them. One is a tiny |
| Tx:17.56 | of the holy instant and use them to correct all your mistakes and | free you from their results. And learning this, you will have also |
| Tx:17.72 | you enter or will ever enter. And every situation was thus made | free of the past, which would have made it purposeless. |
| Tx:17.76 | aside unused. And then the power of the Holy Spirit's purpose is | free to use instead. This power instantly transforms all situations |
| Tx:19.2 | from every demand your ego would make of him. Thus do you see him | free, and in this vision does the Holy Spirit share. And since He |
| Tx:19.12 | through the eyes of faith, the Son of God is seen already forgiven, | free of all the guilt he laid upon himself. Faith sees him only now |
| Tx:19.16 | all along with his Creator. You can enslave a body, but an idea is | free, incapable of being kept in prison or limited in any way except |
| Tx:19.70 | Here is your choice, and it is | free. But all that lies in it will come with it, and what you think |
| Tx:19.74 | of peace, it urges you to send out all your messages of hate and | free yourself. And to convince you this is possible, it bids the body |
| Tx:19.85 | condemnation to which the body leads you. Ask not release of it. But | free it from the merciless and unrelenting orders you laid upon it |
| Tx:19.104 | you to give each other, and thus receive it. Whom you forgive is | free, and what you give you share. Forgive the sins your brother |
| Tx:19.106 | of freedom that I gave the Holy Spirit for both of you. And be you | free together, as you offer to the Holy Spirit this same gift. And |
| Tx:19.107 | Free your brother here, as I freed you. Give him the self-same gift, | |
| Tx:20.7 | and you are crucified. Offer him lilies and it is yourself you | free. |
| Tx:20.14 | is risen from the past and has awakened to the present. Now is he | free, unlimited in his communion with all that is within him. Now are |
| Tx:20.14 | gift has saved him from the thorns and nails, and his strong arm is | free to guide you safely through them and beyond. Walk with him now |
| Tx:20.15 | and your friend, released from crucifixion through your vision and | free to lead you now where he would be. He will not leave you nor |
| Tx:20.25 | not the light, do not leap up in joy the instant they are made | free. It takes a while for them to understand what freedom is. You |
| Tx:20.26 | become impossible. You who were prisoners in separation are now made | free in Paradise. And here would I unite with you, my friends, my |
| Tx:20.28 | and gives no power to their seeming source. Thus would He keep you | free of them. Being without illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:20.30 | this that you would see within your savior from insanity? He is as | free from this as you are, and in the freedom that you see in him, |
| Tx:20.32 | given, whose special function here is to release him and so to | free himself. In the world of separation, each is appointed |
| Tx:20.66 | upon is sinless. No one who loves can judge, and what he sees is | free of condemnation. And what he sees he did not make, for it was |
| Tx:20.68 | exchange your doubts for certainty? Would you not willingly be | free of misery and learn again of joy? Your holy relationship offers |
| Tx:21.2 | If you see holiness and hope, you joined the Will of God to set him | free. There is no choice that lies between these two decisions. And |
| Tx:21.23 | Be willing for an instant to leave your altars | free of what you placed upon them, and what is really there you |
| Tx:21.35 | has your faith and your belief. But holiness would set your brother | free, removing hatred by removing fear, not as a symptom, but at its |
| Tx:21.36 | Those who would | free their brothers from the body can have no fear. They have |
| Tx:21.45 | time began. And it desired nothing but to join with him and to be | free again, as once it was. It has been waiting for the birth of |
| Tx:21.53 | for you and has your freedom as the purpose given it, you must be | free to find it. |
| Tx:21.69 | attests to it. Where could his freedom lie but in himself if he be | free already? And who could bind him but himself if he deny his |
| Tx:21.69 | at his own mercy. And where he chooses to be merciful, there is he | free. But where he chooses to condemn instead, there is he held a |
| Tx:21.69 | held a prisoner, waiting in chains his pardon on himself to set him | free. |
| Tx:22.53 | the role of means and end so easily in what God loves and would have | free forever. But be you rather grateful that you can be the means to |
| Tx:23.32 | Here do the laws of sin appear to hold love captive and let sin go | free. |
| Tx:24.33 | The slaves of specialness will yet be | free. Such is the Will of God and of His Son. Would God condemn |
| Tx:25.41 | be when you perceive it! And how great will be your joy, when he is | free to offer you the gift of sight God gave to him for you! He has |
| Tx:25.42 | from the pain of hell. But in the love he shows himself is God made | free to let His Will be done. In each of you, you see the picture of |
| Tx:25.56 | and place in which you think you find yourself and where you can be | free of place and time and all that you believe must limit you. The |
| Tx:25.56 | choice be made by the insane, whose problem is their choices are not | free and made with reason in the light of sense. |
| Tx:25.70 | are wholly innocent in truth. In justice, He is bound to set them | free and give them all the honor they deserve and have denied |
| Tx:26.40 | The Son that God created is as | free as God created him. He was reborn the instant that he chose to |
| Tx:26.65 | use of what He gave to answer all His Son's mistakes and set him | free. But it is arrogant to lay aside the power that He gave and |
| Tx:27.2 | you suffer now belongs to him, and when it rests on him are you set | free. Wish not to make yourself a living symbol of his guilt, for you |
| Tx:27.10 | witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being open and the mind made | free again to choose what it is for. Now is it not condemned, but |
| Tx:27.11 | empty space, from which the goal of sin has been removed, is Heaven | free to be remembered. Here its peace can come and perfect healing |
| Tx:27.21 | of guilt he suffers serves to prove that he is slave but they are | free. The constant pain they suffer demonstrates that they are free |
| Tx:27.21 | are free. The constant pain they suffer demonstrates that they are | free because they hold him bound. And sickness is desired to prevent |
| Tx:27.27 | of you. It cannot leave mistakes in one unhealed and set the other | free. That is divided purpose which cannot be shared, and so it |
| Tx:27.33 | and unseen. Forgiveness is not yet a power known as wholly | free of limits. Yet it sets no limits you have chosen to impose. |
| Tx:27.34 | remains unknown but is not canceled out. And thus is God left | free to take the final step Himself. [For this you need no pictures |
| Tx:27.41 | asks what the response should be. But no one in a conflict state is | free to ask this question, for he does not want an honest answer |
| Tx:27.70 | two states, but one of which is clearly recognized? Who could be | free to choose between effects when only one is seen as up to him? |
| Tx:27.86 | recognize it is your dream. This single lesson learned will set you | free from suffering, whatever form it takes. |
| Tx:27.89 | is recognized! When you forgive the world your guilt, you will be | free of it. Its innocence does not demand your guilt, nor does your |
| Tx:28.27 | “this is not done to me, but I am doing this.” And thus the mind is | free to make another choice instead. Beginning here, salvation will |
| Tx:28.37 | be turned instead on you. Thus have they no effects. And you are | free of dreams of pain because you let him be. Unless you help him, |
| Tx:28.42 | because you let them be. But if you took your own away would he be | free of them and of his own as well. Your dreams are witnesses to |
| Tx:28.48 | made. And so he cannot be a part of yours, from which you both are | free. Forgiveness separates the dreamer from the evil dream and thus |
| Tx:29.10 | you not perceive it as release from suffering to learn that you are | free? Why would you not acclaim the truth, instead of looking on it |
| Tx:29.12 | must come wherever they are not. Why are you not rejoicing? You are | free of pain and sickness, misery and loss, and all effects of hatred |
| Tx:29.21 | to his reality. He must be savior from the dream he made, that he be | free of it. He must see someone else as not a body, one with him, |
| Tx:29.42 | lovely is the world whose purpose is forgiveness of God's Son! How | free from fear, how filled with blessing and with happiness! And what |
| Tx:30.30 | cannot be coercion here nor grounds for opposition that you may be | free. There is no freedom from what must occur. And if you think |
| Tx:30.34 | be called by freedom's name. Unless you do your will, you are not | free. And would God leave His Son without what he has chosen for |
| Tx:30.34 | to what he does not want. He joins with you in willing you be | free. And to oppose Him is to make a choice against yourself and |
| Tx:30.36 | have you for anger in a world which merely waits your blessing to be | free? If you be prisoner, then God Himself could not be free. For |
| Tx:30.36 | to be free? If you be prisoner, then God Himself could not be | free. For what is done to him whom God so loves is done to God |
| Tx:30.37 | the freedom you will give when you have recognized that you are | free. But you will not forgive the world until you have forgiven Him |
| Tx:30.37 | For it is by your will the world is given freedom. Nor can you be | free apart from Him Whose holy will you share. God turns to you to |
| Tx:30.54 | believe an idol gives. For thus the Son of God declares that he is | free of idols. And thus is he free. |
| Tx:30.54 | the Son of God declares that he is free of idols. And thus is he | free. |
| Tx:30.55 | for the things you do not want. And you are asked to let yourself be | free of all the dreams of what you never were and seek no more to |
| Tx:30.65 | let not your experiences here deceive in retrospect. They were not | free from bitter cost and joyless consequence. |
| Tx:30.69 | their enemy. But when they joined and shared a purpose, they were | free to learn their will is one. And thus the Will of God must reach |
| Tx:30.94 | you request a miracle instead. There is no pain from which he is not | free if you would have him be but what he is. Why should you fear to |
| Tx:30.94 | but behold your Self in what you see. As he is healed are you made | free of guilt, for his appearance is your own to you. |
| Tx:31.12 | crossed your mind of anyone. Now do [you] know him not. But you are | free to learn of him and learn of him anew. Now is he born again to |
| Tx:31.12 | the past that sentenced him to die, and you with him. Now is he | free to live, as you are free because an ancient learning passed away |
| Tx:31.12 | him to die, and you with him. Now is he free to live, as you are | free because an ancient learning passed away and left a place for |
| Tx:31.15 | choose between is not a choice and gives but the illusion it is | free, for it will have one outcome either way. Thus is it really not |
| Tx:31.30 | For here are you made sin, and sin cannot abide the joyous and the | free, for they are enemies which sin must kill. In death is sin |
| Tx:31.59 | no assumptions which would stand the light, then is the truth left | free to enter in its sanctuary, clean and free of guilt. There is no |
| Tx:31.59 | then is the truth left free to enter in its sanctuary, clean and | free of guilt. There is no statement that the world is more afraid to |
| Tx:31.80 | The savior's vision is as innocent of what your brother is as it is | free of any judgment made upon yourself. It sees no past in anyone at |
| Tx:31.94 | hear, and you will choose again. And in this choice is everyone made | free. |
| W1:29.5 | Your list of subjects should therefore be as | free of self-selection as possible. For example, a suitable list |
| W1:39.11 | Meanwhile, you should feel | free to introduce variety into your practice periods in whatever form |
| W1:57.3 | in which I see myself. All I need do is recognize this, and I am | free. I have deluded myself into believing it is possible to imprison |
| W1:57.3 | this belief, which I no longer want. The Son of God must be forever | free. He is as God created him, and not what I would make of him. He |
| W1:57.4 | must be, then, that the world is really a place where he can be set | free. I would look upon the world as it is, and see it as a place |
| W1:70.14 | and nothing but your own thoughts can hamper your progress. You are | free from all external interference. You are in charge of your |
| W1:71.9 | full release from all your own insane attempts and mad proposals to | free yourself. They have led to depression and anger. But God's plan |
| W1:73.9 | it is the ego which stands powerless before your will. Your will is | free, and nothing can prevail against it. Therefore we undertake the |
| W1:76.7 | which we would hide. We realize instead it is a truth which keeps us | free forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of God set free. The |
| W1:76.7 | keeps us free forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of God set | free. The light has come because there are no laws but His. |
| W1:78.10 | be denied. Your savior has been waiting long for this. He would be | free and make his freedom yours. The Holy Spirit leans from him to |
| W1:78.10 | seeing no separation in God's Son. And what you see through Him will | free you both. |
| W1:79.3 | to be no end to them. There is no time in which you feel completely | free of problems and at peace. |
| W1:79.7 | to it. We will not assume that we already know. We will try to | free our minds of all the many different kinds of problems that we |
| W1:80.5 | problems have been solved. Recognize that you are out of conflict, | free, and at peace. Above all, remember that you have one problem and |
| W1:80.8 | not to collect grievances today. Let us be determined to be | free of problems that do not exist. The means is simple honesty. Do |
| W1:88.5 | in them. They have no real effect on me at all. I am perfectly | free of the effects of all laws save God's. And His are the laws of |
| W1:96.7 | the release of His dear Son bring pain to him and fail to set him | free? |
| W1:96.10 | you about your Self, and what your mind can do, restored to it and | free to serve its will. |
| W1:97.9 | Spirit am I, a holy Son of God, | free of all limits, safe and healed and whole, free to forgive, and |
| W1:97.9 | I, a holy Son of God, free of all limits, safe and healed and whole, | free to forgive, and free to save the world. |
| W1:97.9 | free of all limits, safe and healed and whole, free to forgive, and | free to save the world. |
| W1:101.7 | the Will of God. But turn to it in confidence that it will set you | free from all the consequences sin has wrought in feverish |
| W1:102.2 | in existence like itself. You have been slave to nothing. Be you | free today to join the happy Will of God. |
| W1:105.9 | yourself to recognize God's gifts to you and let your mind be | free of all that would prevent success today. Now are you ready to |
| W1:106.10 | by you. It will begin the ministry for which you came and which will | free the world from thinking giving is a way to lose. And so the |
| W1:107.15 | the world and Him Who would release the world as He would set you | free. |
| W1:110.2 | any time or place. It is enough to heal the past and make the future | free. It is enough to let the present be accepted as it is. It is |
| W1:110.3 | but just this one to let redemption come to light the world and | free it from the past. |
| W1:110.5 | today's idea with gratitude. This is the truth that comes to set you | free. This is the truth that God has promised you. This is the Word |
| W1:110.13 | this truth as often as we can. This is the Word of God that sets you | free. This is the key that opens up the gate of Heaven, and which |
| W1:125.2 | means can save it, for God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is | free to save himself, given the Word of God to be his Guide, forever |
| W1:125.2 | to lead him surely to his Father's house by his own will, forever | free as God's. He is not led by force, but only love. He is not |
| W1:125.9 | your practicing today lift you above the thinking of the world and | free your vision from the body's eyes. Only be still and listen. You |
| W1:127.6 | Today we practice making | free our minds of all the laws you think you must obey, of all the |
| W1:127.10 | thought was made in hate to be love's enemy. Now are they all made | free along with us. Now are they all our brothers in God's Love. |
| W1:128.5 | go all thought of values we have given to the world. We leave it | free of purposes we gave its aspects and its phases and its dreams. |
| W1:128.6 | the level where it finds itself at home. It will be grateful to be | free a while. It knows where it belongs. But free its wings, and it |
| W1:128.6 | will be grateful to be free a while. It knows where it belongs. But | free its wings, and it will fly in sureness and in joy to join its |
| W1:131.4 | search unless you give it power to do so. Otherwise, you still are | free to choose a goal that lies beyond the world and every worldly |
| W1:132.2 | Yet is salvation easily achieved, for anyone is | free to change his mind, and all his thoughts change with it. Now the |
| W1:132.3 | You | free the past from what you thought before. You free the future from |
| W1:132.3 | You free the past from what you thought before. You | free the future from all ancient thoughts of seeking what you do not |
| W1:132.3 | now remains the only time. Here in the present is the world set | free. For as you let the past be lifted and release the future from |
| W1:132.11 | of saying that to know your Self is the salvation of the world? To | free the world from every kind of pain is but to change your mind |
| W1:132.12 | were created, so it is your thoughts which made it and must set it | free that you may know the thoughts you share with God. |
| W1:132.15 | Today our purpose is to | free the world from all the idle thoughts we ever held about it and |
| W1:132.15 | the world this day from every one of our illusions that we may be | free. |
| W1:134.9 | Now are you | free to follow in the way your true forgiveness opens up to you. For |
| W1:134.10 | in terms which render choosing meaningful and keep your mind as | free of guilt and pain as God Himself intended it to be and as it is |
| W1:135.14 | mind sets up to save itself must make the body sick. It is not | free to be a means of helping in a plan which far exceeds its own |
| W1:136.15 | a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth to come to us and set us | free. |
| W1:137.8 | is weakness overcome. And minds which were walled off within a body | free to join with other minds, to be forever strong. |
| W1:154.14 | I am grateful that I have the means by which to recognize that I am | free. |
| W1:161.10 | destroy itself? Or would you have it be revealed to you and set you | free? |
| W1:161.13 | Ask this of him that he may set you | free: |
| W1:166.6 | needs but realize Who walks with him and open up his treasures to be | free? |
| W1:166.7 | catch a glimpse of truth and be released from self-deception and set | free. |
| W1:170.14 | them we find our peace. Holy are we because Your holiness has set us | free. And we give thanks. Amen. |
| W1:R5.12 | seemed to claim the world. And we remind the world that it is | free of all illusions every time we say, |
| W1:177.2 | [163] There is no death. The Son of God is | free. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:186.5 | to experience which might affront their stance. Yet are the humble | free to hear the Voice which tells them what they are and what to do. |
| W1:190.8 | in your holy mind. Pain is the ransom you have gladly paid not to be | free. In pain is God denied the Son He loves. In pain does fear |
| W1:190.11 | Heaven. Let our gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are | free to choose our joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, |
| W1:191.4 | one thing is folly to believe. In this one thought is everything set | free. In this one truth are all illusions gone. In this one fact is |
| W1:191.5 | And from this place of safety and escape, you will return and set it | free. For he who can accept his true Identity is truly saved. And his |
| W1:191.6 | One holy thought like this, and you are | free: you are the holy Son of God Himself. And with this holy |
| W1:191.6 | use it cruelly and then perceive this savage need in it. You set it | free of your imprisonment. You will not see a devastating image of |
| W1:191.10 | as dark and sinful when God's Son has come again at last to set it | free? |
| W1:191.13 | They must await your own release. They stay in chains till you are | free. They cannot see the mercy of the world until you find it for |
| W1:191.13 | are the holy Son of God Himself. Remember this and all the world is | free. Remember this and earth and Heaven are one. |
| W1:192.8 | forgiven everyone he sees or thinks of or imagines? Who could be set | free while he imprisons anyone? A jailer is not free, for he is bound |
| W1:192.8 | Who could be set free while he imprisons anyone? A jailer is not | free, for he is bound together with his prisoner. He must be sure |
| W1:192.9 | hold no one prisoner. Release instead of bind, for thus are you made | free. The way is simple. Every time you feel a stab of anger, realize |
| W1:192.9 | And it will fall or be averted as you choose to be condemned or | free. Thus does each one who seems to tempt you to be angry represent |
| W1:193.13 | has willed that laughter should replace each one and that His Son be | free again. |
| W1:193.16 | to the happenings the hour brought, so that the next one is | free of the one before. The chains of time are easily unloosened in |
| W1:194.5 | was kept hidden in God's Son is freed to bless the world. Now is he | free, and all his glory shines upon a world made free with him to |
| W1:194.5 | world. Now is he free, and all his glory shines upon a world made | free with him to share his holiness. |
| W1:194.7 | his perception may be faulty but will never lack correction. He is | free to choose again when he has been deceived, to change his mind |
| W1:195.7 | find, the way is opening at last to us. An ancient door is swinging | free again; a long forgotten Word re-echoes in our memory and gathers |
| W1:196.1 | that to attack another is but to attack yourself. You will be | free of the insane belief that to attack a brother saves yourself. |
| W1:196.6 | if you accept the fearful thought you can attack another and be | free yourself. Until this form is changed, there is no hope. Until |
| W1:196.9 | salvation. You are strong, and it is strength you want. And you are | free and glad of freedom. You have sought to be both weak and bound |
| W1:197.1 | Here is the second step we take to | free your mind from the belief in outside force pitted against your |
| W1:197.9 | Give thanks as you receive it. Be you | free of all ingratitude to anyone who makes your Self complete. And |
| W1:198.1 | have effects, and all it seemed to have will be undone. Then are you | free, for freedom is your gift, and you can now receive the gift you |
| W1:198.10 | Only my condemnation injures me. Only my own forgiveness sets me | free. |
| W1:199.1 | a body looks for it where it cannot be found. The mind can be made | free when it no longer sees itself as in a body, firmly tied to it |
| W1:199.4 | it can be seen as what it is. Declare your innocence, and you are | free. The body disappears because you have no need of it except the |
| W1:199.7 | Be | free today, and carry freedom as your gift to those who still believe |
| W1:199.7 | to those who still believe they are enslaved within a body. Be you | free, so that the Holy Spirit can make use of your escape from |
| W1:199.7 | that the Holy Spirit can make use of your escape from bondage to set | free the many who perceive themselves as bound and helpless and |
| W1:199.9 | I am not a body. I am | free. I hear the Voice that God has given me, and it is only this my |
| W1:200.5 | bound till all the world is seen by you as blessed and everyone made | free of your mistakes and honored as he is. You made him not; no more |
| W1:200.5 | and honored as he is. You made him not; no more yourself. And as you | free the one, the other is accepted as he is. |
| W1:R6.4 | I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:200.1 | whole that is my Self, forever one with me. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:202.1 | has given me His Voice to call me home? I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:203.1 | of sin, because it is my own as well as His. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:204.1 | to time, unbound by laws which rule the world of sick illusions, | free in God, forever and forever one with Him. I am not a body. I am |
| W1:204.1 | free in God, forever and forever one with Him. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:205.1 | my life while I abide where I am not at home. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:206.1 | give His gifts where He intended them to be. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:207.1 | away as I accept His boundless Love for me. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:208.1 | my heart, which witnesses to God Himself. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:209.1 | of God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love of God within me sets me | free. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:209.1 | Son. The Love of God within me sets me free. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:210.1 | Son. And that I choose instead of what I made. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:211.1 | it in the Son whom He created as my Self. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:212.1 | God would have me fill. I seek the function that would set me | free from all the vain illusions of the world. Only the function God |
| W1:212.1 | I seek, and only this will I accept as mine. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:213.1 | I made that hurt me. What I learn of Him becomes the way I am set | free. And so I choose to learn His lessons and forget my own. I am |
| W1:213.1 | choose to learn His lessons and forget my own. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:214.1 | but what He gives as what belongs to me. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:215.1 | thanks to Him for showing me the way to go. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:216.1 | But if I forgive, salvation will be given me. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:217.1 | can I find the Self to Whom my thanks are due? I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:218.1 | Yet today I can behold this glory and be glad. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:219.1 | [199] I am not a body. I am | free. I am God's Son. Be still, my mind, and think a moment upon |
| W1:219.1 | as to what my Father loves forever as His Son. I am not a body. I am | free. For I am still as God created me. |

| W2:340.1 | directing him to find Christ's vision through forgiveness and be | free forever from all suffering. Thanks for today, my Father. I was |

| M:13.4 | looks back on it with condemnation. Yet he must rejoice that he is | free of all the sacrifice which its value would demand of him. To |
| M:13.6 | things that crucify God's Son. And it is the course's aim to set him | free. But do not be mistaken about what sacrifice means. It always |
| M:15.1 | his sinlessness proclaimed around and around the world, setting it | free as God's Final Judgment on him is received. This is the judgment |
| M:15.1 | in which salvation lies. This is the judgment that will set him | free. This is the judgment in which all things are freed with him. |
| M:15.2 | Holy are you, eternal, | free, and whole, at peace forever in the Heart of God. Where is the |
| M:15.4 | minds an instant longer. God's judgment waits for you to set you | free. What can the world hold out to you, regardless of your |
| M:18.2 | ears and bring Christ's vision to the eyes that see. Now is He | free to teach all minds the truth of what they are, so they will |

| Tx:16.60 | that this is its real appeal, for the ego has taught you that | freedom lies in it. Yet the closer you look at the special |
| Tx:17.25 | the real world or the world of guilt and fear, truth or illusion, | freedom or slavery—it is all the same. For you can never choose |
| Tx:17.52 | Throughout the Sonship is the song of | freedom heard in joyous echo of your choice. You have joined with |
| Tx:18.20 | not as a source of pain and guilt, but as a source of joy and | freedom. It will not be for you alone, for therein lay its misery. As |
| Tx:18.58 | beyond himself. This feeling of liberation far exceeds the dream of | freedom sometimes experienced in special relationships. It is a sense |
| Tx:18.62 | laws of limit lifted for you, to welcome you to openness of mind and | freedom. Come to this place of refuge, where you can be yourself in |
| Tx:19.10 | and would therefore share it. By faith you offer the gift of | freedom from the past, which you received. You do not use anything |

| Tx:19.76 | disciples to realize that they have dedicated themselves to death. | Freedom is offered them, but they have not accepted it, and what is |

| Tx:19.107 | overlook the sins he thinks he sees within himself. Offer each other | freedom and complete release from sin here in the garden of seeming |
| Tx:20.15 | the home that called to you. Give joyously to one another the | freedom and the strength to lead you there. And come before each |
| Tx:20.15 | And come before each other's holy altar where the strength and | freedom wait, to offer and receive the bright awareness that leads |
| Tx:20.25 | they are made free. It takes a while for them to understand what | freedom is. You groped but feebly in the dust and found each other's |
| Tx:20.25 | your eyes unto your strong companion, in whom the meaning of your | freedom lies. He seemed to be crucified beside you. And yet his |
| Tx:20.30 | savior from insanity? He is as free from this as you are, and in the | freedom that you see in him, you see your own. For this you share. |
| Tx:20.31 | Those who choose | freedom will experience only its results. Their power is of God, and |
| Tx:20.31 | sharing their power according to the Will of God. And thus their | freedom is established and maintained. It is upheld through all |
| Tx:20.31 | to imprison and to be imprisoned. It is of them who learned of | freedom that you should ask what freedom is. Ask not the sparrow how |
| Tx:20.31 | It is of them who learned of freedom that you should ask what | freedom is. Ask not the sparrow how the eagle soars, for those with |

| Tx:21.47 | into your minds. The ego's weakness is its strength. The song of | freedom, which sings the praises of another world, brings to it hope |
| Tx:21.51 | There is another vision and another Voice in which your | freedom lies awaiting but your choice. And if you place your faith in |
| Tx:21.53 | it must be so, it must exist. And if it exists for you and has your | freedom as the purpose given it, you must be free to find it. |
| Tx:21.69 | not a threat to his reality. It but attests to it. Where could his | freedom lie but in himself if he be free already? And who could bind |
| Tx:21.69 | be free already? And who could bind him but himself if he deny his | freedom? God is not mocked; no more His Son can be imprisoned save by |

| Tx:23.4 | world you walk with truth beside you! Do not give up this world of | freedom for a little sigh of seeming sin nor for a tiny stirring of |

| Tx:25.41 | gave to him for you! He has no need but this—that you allow him | freedom to complete the task God gave to him. Remembering but this— |
| Tx:26.9 | that he may come forth to shine on you and give you back the gift of | freedom by receiving it of you. What is the Holy Spirit's special |
| Tx:26.76 | has no meaning and is not your just reward. For you have cause for | freedom now. What profits freedom in a prisoner's form? Why should |
| Tx:26.76 | your just reward. For you have cause for freedom now. What profits | freedom in a prisoner's form? Why should deliverance be disguised as |
| Tx:26.77 | how holy he must be when in him sleeps your own salvation with his | freedom joined! However much you wish he be condemned, God is in him. |
| Tx:26.80 | when They have come. What hatred claimed is given up to love, and | freedom lights up every living thing and lifts it into Heaven, where |
| Tx:29.23 | is given power to forgive you your illusions. By your gift of | freedom is it given unto you. Make way for love, which you did not |
| Tx:30.30 | here nor grounds for opposition that you may be free. There is no | freedom from what must occur. And if you think there is, you must be |
| Tx:30.34 | How wonderful it is to do your will! For that is | freedom. There is nothing else that ever should be called by |
| Tx:30.37 | This world awaits the | freedom you will give when you have recognized that you are free. But |

| W1:57.4 | world as it is, and see it as a place where the Son of God finds his | freedom. |
| W1:57.5 | could see peace instead of this. When I see the world as a place of | freedom, I will realize that it reflects the laws of God instead of |
| W1:73.8 | not want to do so. Salvation is for you. Above all else you want the | freedom to remember who you really are. |
| W1:76.3 | Think of the | freedom in the recognition that you are not bound by all the strange |
| W1:76.14 | as subject to other laws throughout the day. It is our statement of | freedom from all danger and all tyranny. It is our acknowledgment |
| W1:78.10 | savior has been waiting long for this. He would be free and make his | freedom yours. The Holy Spirit leans from him to you, seeing no |
| W1:80.1 | been solved. One problem—one solution. Salvation is accomplished. | Freedom from conflict has been given you. Accept that fact, and you |
| W1:88.5 | I am under no laws but God's. Here is the perfect statement of my | freedom. I am under no laws but God's. I am constantly tempted to |
| W1:88.5 | free of the effects of all laws save God's. And His are the laws of | freedom. |
| W1:99.9 | the strength in what you say, for these are words in which your | freedom lies. Your Father loves you. All the world of pain is not His |
| W1:125.8 | as He speaks to you. It is your Word He speaks. It is the Word of | freedom and of peace, of unity of will and purpose, with no |
| W1:128.5 | we wish it were. Thus do we lift the chains which bar the door to | freedom from the world and go beyond all little values and diminished |
| W1:128.6 | Let it rest in its Creator, there to be restored to sanity, to | freedom, and to love. |
| W1:130.9 | God offers me and see no value in this world that I may find my | freedom and deliverance. |
| W1:130.13 | It is impossible to see two worlds. I seek my | freedom and deliverance, and this is not a part of what I want. |

| W1:132.20 | Throughout the day, increase the | freedom sent through your ideas to all the world, and say whenever |

| W1:134.18 | all the thoughts you had of sin in him. And now you are prepared for | freedom. If you have been practicing thus far in willingness and |
| W1:137.8 | Healing is | freedom. For it demonstrates that dreams will not prevail against the |
| W1:R4.7 | to learn what each idea you will review that day can offer you in | freedom and in peace. Open your mind and clear it of all thoughts |
| W1:161.5 | It seems to be the body that we feel limits our | freedom, makes us suffer, and at last puts out our life. Yet bodies |
| W1:164.8 | it in the light in which our Savior looks on us and offer it the | freedom given us through His forgiving vision, now our own. Open the |
| W1:170.1 | of cruelty. You mean that you believe to hurt another brings you | freedom. And you mean that to attack is to exchange the state in |
| W1:I2.2 | of liberation which their lifting brings. But the experience of | freedom and of peace that comes as you give up your tight control of |
| W1:192.8 | world in which the jailer lives, along with him. And it is on his | freedom that the way to liberty depends for both of them. |

| W1:196.4 | one step we take in leading us from bondage to the state of perfect | freedom. Let us take this step today that we may quickly go the way |
| W1:196.9 | strong, and it is strength you want. And you are free and glad of | freedom. You have sought to be both weak and bound because you feared |
| W1:196.9 | to be both weak and bound because you feared your strength and | freedom. Yet salvation lies in them. |
| W1:197.2 | your strength until guilt and salvation are not seen as one, and | freedom and salvation are perceived as joined, with strength beside |
| W1:198.1 | and all it seemed to have will be undone. Then are you free, for | freedom is your gift, and you can now receive the gift you gave. |
| W1:198.2 | rules perception. It is not a law that knowledge understands, for | freedom is a part of knowledge. To condemn is thus impossible in |
| W1:198.9 | Today we practice letting | freedom come to make its home with you. The truth bestows these words |
| W1:199.1 | Freedom must be impossible as long as you perceive a body as | |
| W1:199.1 | perceive a body as yourself. The body is a limit. Who would seek for | freedom in a body looks for it where it cannot be found. The mind can |
| W1:199.5 | will not gain in added gifts to you as well. We sound the call of | freedom round the world with this idea. And would you be exempt from |
| W1:199.6 | The Holy Spirit is the home of minds that seek for | freedom. In Him they find what they have sought. The body's purpose |
| W1:199.6 | and unequivocal response to mind with but the thought of | freedom as its goal, the body serves, and serves its purpose well. |
| W1:199.6 | well. Without the power to enslave, it is a worthy servant of the | freedom which the mind within the Holy Spirit seeks. |

| W1:199.7 | calls to you to make this gift to Him. For He would give you perfect | freedom, perfect joy, and hope that finds its full accomplishment in |
| W1:200.5 | Freedom is given you where you beheld but chains and iron doors. For | |
| W1:200.8 | Now the way is easy, sloping gently toward the bridge where | freedom lies within the peace of God. |
| W1:R6.6 | then forget all that we thought we knew and understood. For thus is | freedom given us from all we did not know and failed to understand. |
| W1:R6.8 | When you are tempted, hasten to proclaim your | freedom from temptation, as you say: |
| W1:R6.11 | for the way each practice period can best become a loving gift of | freedom to the world. |

| W2:321.1 | no more. For I have neither made nor understood the way to find my | freedom. But I trust in You. You Who endowed me with my freedom as |
| W2:321.1 | to find my freedom. But I trust in You. You Who endowed me with my | freedom as Your holy Son will not be lost to me. Your Voice directs |
| W2:321.1 | And the way to You is opening and clear to me at last. Father, my | freedom is in You alone. Father, it is my will that I return. |

| W1:102.7 | as loving as Himself. Besides these hourly five minute rests, pause | frequently today to tell yourself that you have now accepted |
| W1:103.6 | pain. God being Love, it will be given you. Bolster this expectation | frequently throughout the day, and quiet all your fears with this |

| Tx:4.45 | and not only censors but also reinterprets the data. However, as | Freud correctly pointed out, what you have repressed can retain a |
| Tx:5.62 | of the guilt is so acute that it must be projected. Although | Freud was wrong about the basic conflict itself, he was very accurate |
| Tx:5.83 | of God. The concept of “fixation” is also a very helpful one which | Freud understood perfectly. Unfortunately, he lost his understanding |
| Tx:5.84 | Freud's system of thought was extremely ingenious because | Freud was extremely ingenious, and a mind must endow its thoughts |
| Tx:5.84 | This is its inherent strength, although it may misuse its power. | Freud lost much of the potential value of his thought system, because |

| Tx:5.84 | Freud's system of thought was extremely ingenious because Freud was | |
| Tx:5.84 | state, because the thinker cuts himself off from his thoughts. | Freud's thought was so conflicted that he could not have retained his |

| W1:62.6 | Forgiveness is my function as the light of the world. I would | fulfill my function that I may be happy. |
| W1:64.5 | is no other way. Therefore every time you choose whether or not to | fulfill your function, you are really choosing whether to be happy or |
| W1:69.3 | only need. There is no other purpose here and no other function to | fulfill. Learning salvation is our only goal. Let us end the ancient |

| W1:82.5 | my Self. I cannot fulfill my function by forgetting. And unless I | fulfill my function, I will not experience the joy that God intends |
| W1:82.7 | to hide my function from me. I would use this as an opportunity to | fulfill my function. This may threaten my ego but cannot change my |
| W1:98.2 | that doubt is gone and surety has come. We have a mighty purpose to | fulfill and have been given everything we need with which to reach |

| W1:123.3 | grateful you are saved. Be glad you have a function in salvation to | fulfill. Be thankful that your value far transcends your meager gifts |
| W1:135.12 | It does not depend upon itself for anything except its adequacy to | fulfill the plans assigned to it. It is secure in certainty that |
| W1:153.9 | serenely certain of our safety now, sure of salvation; sure we will | fulfill our chosen purpose as our ministry extends its holy blessing |
| W1:154.5 | that he accept it, give it to the ones for whom it is appointed, and | fulfill his role in its delivery. If he determines what the messages |
| W1:186.14 | is needed here is given here as it is needed. In this form, you can | fulfill your function even here, although what love will mean to you |

| Tx:25.41 | for by his freedom will you gain your own. To let his function be | fulfilled is but the means to let yours be. And so you walk toward |
| Tx:25.49 | The Holy Spirit needs your special function that His may be | fulfilled. Think not you lack a special value here. You wanted it, |
| Tx:25.49 | gently then from one another's hand, and let salvation be perfectly | fulfilled in both of you. Do this one thing, that everything be given |
| Tx:25.62 | maintained at any cost. No one can suffer for the Will of God to be | fulfilled. Salvation is His Will because you share it. Not for you |
| Tx:25.75 | will be yours. And so the Holy Spirit's special function has been | fulfilled. God's Son has found a witness unto his sinlessness and not |
| Tx:26.48 | Son of God perceives what he would see, because perception is a wish | fulfilled. Perception changes, made to take the place of changeless |
| Tx:26.66 | means whereby your brother finds the peace in which your wishes are | fulfilled. Let us unite in bringing blessing to the world of sin and |

| Tx:8.75 | It is still true that the body has no | function of itself, because it is not an end. The ego, however, |
| Tx:8.75 | establishes it as an end because as such it will lose its true | function. This is the purpose of everything the ego does. Its sole |
| Tx:8.75 | of everything the ego does. Its sole aim is to lose sight of the | function of everything. A sick body does not make any sense. It could |
| Tx:8.76 | the data are meaningless, there is no point in considering them. The | function of truth is to collect data which are true. There is no |
| Tx:8.79 | them and therefore heal you. Everything used in accordance with its | function as the Holy Spirit sees it cannot be sick. Everything used |
| Tx:8.84 | would be teaching that one error can be more real than another. His | function is to distinguish only between the false and the true, |
| Tx:8.93 | available but cannot help you. When we said that the Holy Spirit's | function is to sort out the true from the false in your unconscious, |
| Tx:9.8 | Do not undertake His | function, or you will forget yours. Accept only the function of |
| Tx:9.8 | undertake His function, or you will forget yours. Accept only the | function of healing in time, because that is what time is for. God |
| Tx:9.8 | healing in time, because that is what time is for. God gave you the | function to create in eternity. You do not need to learn this, but |
| Tx:9.14 | Follow His teaching in forgiveness then, because forgiveness is His | function, and He knows how to fulfill it perfectly. That is what we |
| Tx:9.15 | of the fact that you do not know what it is. His work is not your | function, and unless you accept this, you cannot learn what your |
| Tx:9.15 | function, and unless you accept this, you cannot learn what your | function is. The confusion of functions is so typical of the ego that |
| Tx:9.28 | he is the Guide. The human therapist can only let Him fulfill His | function. He needs no help for this. He will tell you exactly what to |
| Tx:9.28 | remember also that the right one will. Trust Him, for help is His | function, and He is of God. |
| Tx:10.10 | It can only be increased, and everything He creates has the | function of creating. Love does not limit, and what it creates is not |
| Tx:10.21 | You will never rest until you know your | function and fulfill it, for only in this can your will and your |
| Tx:10.21 | has given Himself to you. You who have God must be as God, for His | function became yours with His gift. Invite this knowledge back into |
| Tx:10.45 | the independence of creation, not of autonomy. Your whole creative | function lies in your complete dependence on God, Whose function He |
| Tx:10.45 | creative function lies in your complete dependence on God, Whose | function He shares with you. By His Willingness to share it, He |
| Tx:10.51 | establish your autonomy by identifying with Him and fulfilling your | function as it exists in truth. The ego believes that to accomplish |
| Tx:10.51 | its goal is happiness. But it is given you to know that God's | function is yours and happiness cannot be found apart from your joint |
| Tx:11.64 | through you. Do the Holy Spirit's work, for you share in His | function. As your function in Heaven is creation, so your function on |
| Tx:11.64 | Do the Holy Spirit's work, for you share in His function. As your | function in Heaven is creation, so your function on earth is healing. |
| Tx:11.64 | in His function. As your function in Heaven is creation, so your | function on earth is healing. God shares His function with you in |
| Tx:11.64 | is creation, so your function on earth is healing. God shares His | function with you in Heaven, and the Holy Spirit shares His with you |
| Tx:11.73 | If it is your judgment, it will be wrong, for judgment is not your | function. If it is the judgment of the Holy Spirit, it will be right, |
| Tx:11.73 | judgment of the Holy Spirit, it will be right, for judgment is His | function. You share His function only by judging as He does, |
| Tx:11.73 | it will be right, for judgment is His function. You share His | function only by judging as He does, reserving no judgment at all |
| Tx:11.83 | the attraction of love for love remains irresistible. For it is the | function of love to unite all things unto itself, and to hold all |
| Tx:12.23 | course on love because it is about you. You have been told that your | function in this world is healing, and your function in Heaven is |
| Tx:12.23 | have been told that your function in this world is healing, and your | function in Heaven is creating. The ego teaches that your function on |
| Tx:12.23 | and your function in Heaven is creating. The ego teaches that your | function on earth is destruction and that you have no function at all |
| Tx:12.23 | that your function on earth is destruction and that you have no | function at all in Heaven. It would thus destroy you here and bury |
| Tx:12.30 | as rendering the need for it unnecessary. Thus does He regard the | function of time as temporary, serving only His teaching function, |
| Tx:12.30 | regard the function of time as temporary, serving only His teaching | function, which is temporary by definition. His emphasis is therefore |
| Tx:12.31 | The ego, on the other hand, regards the | function of time as one of extending itself in place of eternity, for |
| Tx:12.32 | You too will interpret the | function of time as you interpret yours. If you accept your function |
| Tx:12.32 | the function of time as you interpret yours. If you accept your | function in the world of time as healing, you will emphasize only the |
| Tx:12.32 | extends the present rather than the past. But if you interpret your | function as destruction, you will lose sight of the present and hold |
| Tx:13.3 | formulation of reality with no effect at all. The miracle, without a | function in Heaven, is needful here. Aspects of reality can still be |
| Tx:13.4 | Apart from the Father and the Son, the Holy Spirit has no | function. He is not separate from either, being in the mind of both |
| Tx:13.64 | that guilt is interference, not salvation, and serves no useful | function at all. |
| Tx:13.88 | real and visible to them that use it. On earth this is your only | function, and you must learn that it is all you want to learn. |
| Tx:13.89 | form it takes, your guilt arises from your failure to fulfill your | function in God's Mind with all of yours. Can you escape this guilt |
| Tx:13.89 | all of yours. Can you escape this guilt by failing to fulfill your | function here? You need not understand creation to do what must be |
| Tx:13.90 | Holiness nor anyone unworthy of His perfect Love. Fail not in your | function of loving in a loveless place made out of darkness and |
| Tx:13.91 | decisions for yourself, remember that you have decided against your | function in Heaven and consider carefully whether you want to make |
| Tx:13.91 | and consider carefully whether you want to make decisions here. Your | function here is only to decide against deciding what you want in |
| Tx:13.91 | do? Leave all decisions to the One Who speaks for God and for your | function as He knows it. So will He teach you to remove the awful |
| Tx:14.6 | learns it, he will suffer the pain of dim awareness that his true | function remains unfulfilled in him. The burden of guilt is heavy, |
| Tx:14.23 | The Holy Spirit's | function is entirely communication. He therefore must remove whatever |
| Tx:14.38 | of truth and illusion, of the ego to God, is the Holy Spirit's only | function. Keep not your making from your Father, for hiding it has |
| Tx:14.47 | order of difficulty can occur. The miracle, therefore, has a unique | function and is motivated by a unique Teacher, Who brings the laws of |
| Tx:14.50 | is to judge and to arrange by judgment. [Therefore, it is not your | function, but the Holy Spirit's.] It will seem difficult for you to |
| Tx:15.1 | it constitutes all your learning. He has not fulfilled His teaching | function until you have become such a consistent learner that you |
| Tx:15.24 | you, and by limiting yourself, you will not be satisfied. For your | function is not little, and it is only by finding your function and |
| Tx:15.24 | For your function is not little, and it is only by finding your | function and fulfilling it that you can escape from littleness. |
| Tx:15.25 | There is no doubt about what your | function is, for the Holy Spirit knows what it is. There is no doubt |
| Tx:15.48 | has entered cannot be depended on because it is not perfect. In His | function as Interpreter of what you have made, the Holy Spirit uses |
| Tx:15.77 | surely as damnation lies in guilt. It is the Holy Spirit's teaching | function to instruct those who believe that communication is |
| Tx:15.77 | And guilt, whose only purpose is to disrupt communication, has no | function here. |
| Tx:15.84 | what God cannot know and what you do not understand. It is His holy | function to accept them both, and by removing every element of |
| Tx:15.84 | to join them into one. He will do this because it is His | function. Leave, then, what seems to you to be impossible to Him Who |
| Tx:15.92 | season means anything in eternity. But here it is the Holy Spirit's | function to use them both, though not as the ego uses them. This is |
| Tx:16.8 | No needs will long be left unmet if you leave them all to Him Whose | function is to meet them. That is His function and not yours. He will |
| Tx:16.8 | leave them all to Him Whose function is to meet them. That is His | function and not yours. He will not meet them secretly, for He would |
| Tx:16.9 | Him is for the whole Sonship, not for part of it. Leave Him His | function, for He will fulfill it if you but ask Him to enter your |
| Tx:17.10 | for everything that has been used for learning will have no | function. Nothing will ever change; no shifts nor shadings, no |
| Tx:17.27 | can be real. The purpose God ascribed to anything is its only | function. Because of His reason for creating His relationship with |
| Tx:17.27 | Because of His reason for creating His relationship with you, the | function of relationships became forever “to make happy.” And nothing |
| Tx:17.27 | became forever “to make happy.” And nothing else. To fulfill this | function, you relate to your creations as God to His. For nothing God |
| Tx:17.27 | would extend happiness as its Creator did. Whatever fulfills this | function not cannot be real. |
| Tx:17.28 | And by that all that is meant is that He will restore to them the | function given them by God. The function you have given them is |
| Tx:17.28 | is that He will restore to them the function given them by God. The | function you have given them is clearly not to make happy. But the |
| Tx:18.13 | You have been called together to the most holy | function that this world contains. It is the only one which has no |
| Tx:18.30 | You who are now the bringers of salvation have the | function of bringing light to darkness. The darkness in you has been |
| Tx:18.38 | instant belongs to Him Who gives it. Release yourselves to Him Whose | function is release. Do not assume His function for Him. Give Him but |
| Tx:18.38 | yourselves to Him Whose function is release. Do not assume His | function for Him. Give Him but what He asks, that you may learn how |
| Tx:18.42 | have tried to remove all fear and hatred from your mind. That is its | function. Never attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the |
| Tx:18.42 | your guilt before you ask the Holy Spirit's help. That is His | function. Your part is only to offer Him a little willingness to let |
| Tx:18.43 | Can you plan for this? Or could you prepare yourselves for such a | function? Yet it is possible because God wills it. Nor will He change |
| Tx:18.45 | Yet it is very useful to the Holy Spirit, Who has a special | function here. It will become the happy dream through which He can |
| Tx:18.45 | who believe that love is fear, not happiness. Let Him fulfill the | function that He gave to your relationship by accepting it for you, |
| Tx:18.52 | it through projection. And though it clearly can misperceive the | function of the body, it cannot change its function from what the |
| Tx:18.52 | can misperceive the function of the body, it cannot change its | function from what the Holy Spirit establishes it to be. The body was |
| Tx:19.39 | in you has been extended to encompass everyone, the Holy Spirit's | function here will be accomplished. What need is there for seeing |
| Tx:20.32 | this earth in seeming solitude is a savior given, whose special | function here is to release him and so to free himself. In the world |
| Tx:20.33 | them. Each holy relationship must enter here to learn its special | function in the Holy Spirit's plan, now that it shares His purpose. |
| Tx:20.35 | salvation that does not work. Once you accept His plan as the one | function that you would fulfill, there will be nothing else the Holy |
| Tx:20.37 | to find the certainty his Father has in him. And there he finds his | function of restoring his Father's laws to what was held outside them |
| Tx:20.41 | to him. When it is used only as the Holy Spirit teaches, it has no | function, for minds need not the body to communicate. The sight that |
| Tx:22.23 | mercy condemnation. And vision cannot damn, but only bless. Whose | function is to save will save. How he will do it is beyond your |
| Tx:22.26 | that has been given you? And would you not exchange in gratitude the | function of an executioner you gave him for the one he has in truth? |
| Tx:22.44 | by receiving it, he learned it was not given him alone. Such is the | function of a holy relationship—to receive together and give as you |
| Tx:22.58 | This is your part in bringing peace. For you have asked what is your | function here and have been answered. Seek not to change it nor to |
| Tx:22.59 | loves with charity? Extension of forgiveness is the Holy Spirit's | function. Leave this to Him. Let your concern be only that you give |
| Tx:22.64 | This is the | function of your holy relationship. For what one thinks the other |
| Tx:23.26 | ego will enable you to find escape from what it wants. That is the | function of this course, which does not value what the ego cherishes. |
| Tx:23.32 | is. What protects madness is the belief that it is true. It is the | function of insanity to take the place of truth. It must be seen as |
| Tx:23.34 | it possible. Nor is it unfamiliar; we have seen how it appears to | function many times before. In truth it does not function, yet in |
| Tx:23.34 | how it appears to function many times before. In truth it does not | function, yet in dreams, where only shadows play the major roles, it |
| Tx:23.49 | God does not share His | function with a body. He gave the function to create unto His Son |
| Tx:23.49 | God does not share His function with a body. He gave the | function to create unto His Son because it is His own. It is not |
| Tx:23.49 | unto His Son because it is His own. It is not sinful to believe the | function of the Son is murder, but it is insanity. What is the same |
| Tx:23.49 | murder, but it is insanity. What is the same can have no different | function. Creation is the means for God's extension, and what is His |
| Tx:23.50 | relationship is like the love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy | function God gave His Son, for your forgiveness of one another is not |
| Tx:24.13 | as the gauge of littleness and be released from limits? You have a | function in salvation. Its pursuit will bring you joy. But the |
| Tx:24.18 | to forgive you all the sins you think you placed between him and the | function of salvation given him for you. Nor will you change his |
| Tx:24.18 | the function of salvation given him for you. Nor will you change his | function, any more than you can change the truth in him and in |
| Tx:24.57 | of any kind, is all the other choice can offer you. Futility of | function not fulfilled will haunt you while your brother lies asleep, |
| Tx:24.59 | Specialness is the | function which you gave yourself. It stands for you alone, as |
| Tx:25.9 | aware that it is one and so experienced. It is the Holy Spirit's | function to teach you how this oneness is experienced, what you must |
| Tx:25.19 | in him and sees only a frame of darkness, it is still your only | function to behold in him what he sees not. And in this seeing is the |
| Tx:25.40 | you chose to have him be to you. If you decide against his proper | function, the only one he has in truth, you are depriving him of all |
| Tx:25.41 | he be saved, for by his freedom will you gain your own. To let his | function be fulfilled is but the means to let yours be. And so you |
| Tx:25.41 | does you do along with him. And as you see him, so do you define the | function he will have for you until you see him differently and let |
| Tx:25.45 | be unrecognized by you. Nor does He will that he remain without the | function that He gave to him. Let him no more be lonely, for the |
| Tx:25.45 | Let him no more be lonely, for the lonely ones are those who see no | function in the world for them to fill, no place where they are |
| Tx:25.46 | what you made, to heal instead of harm. To each He gives a special | function in salvation he alone can fill—a part for only him. Nor is |
| Tx:25.46 | for only him. Nor is the plan complete until he finds his special | function and fulfills the part assigned to him to make himself |
| Tx:25.47 | given to himself, and so they must be one. Forgiveness is the only | function meaningful in time. It is the means the Holy Spirit uses to |
| Tx:25.47 | is for all. But when it rests on all, it is complete and every | function of this world completed with it. Then is time no more. |
| Tx:25.49 | The Holy Spirit needs your special | function that His may be fulfilled. Think not you lack a special |
| Tx:25.49 | appear to be attack. In light, you see it as your special | function in the plan to save the Son of God from all attack and let |
| Tx:25.49 | been and will remain in time and in eternity alike. This is the | function given each of you for one another. Take it gently then from |
| Tx:25.56 | Your special | function is the special form in which the fact that God is not insane |
| Tx:25.58 | overlook nor fail completely to perceive at all. To each his special | function is designed to be perceived as possible and more and more |
| Tx:25.58 | everyone's escape. He can no more be left outside without a special | function in the hope of peace than could the Father overlook His Son |
| Tx:25.59 | and so emerge from deepest mourning into perfect joy. Accept the | function that has been assigned to you in God's Own plan to show His |
| Tx:25.61 | Spirit gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your special | function has a part. For here your special function is made whole |
| Tx:25.61 | in which your special function has a part. For here your special | function is made whole because it shares the function of the whole. |
| Tx:25.61 | For here your special function is made whole because it shares the | function of the whole. |
| Tx:25.72 | as well that you cannot accept it for yourself. It is His special | function to hold out to you the gifts the innocent deserve. And every |
| Tx:25.74 | so justice may return to love and there be satisfied. Each special | function He allots is but for this—that each one learn that love |
| Tx:25.75 | great and holy that He could not doubt His innocence. Your special | function is a call to Him that He may smile on you whose sinlessness |
| Tx:25.75 | His understanding will be yours. And so the Holy Spirit's special | function has been fulfilled. God's Son has found a witness unto his |
| Tx:25.77 | Heaven knows, and all the Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special | function shows you nothing else but perfect justice can prevail for |
| Tx:26.5 | that gives it sense and makes it meaningful. Without your special | function has this world no meaning for you. Yet it can become a |
| Tx:26.9 | within the rotting prison where he sees himself. It is your special | function to ensure the door be opened that he may come forth to shine |
| Tx:26.9 | of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the Holy Spirit's special | function but to release the holy Son of God from the imprisonment he |
| Tx:26.9 | the imprisonment he made to keep himself from justice? Could your | function be a task apart and separate from His Own? |
| Tx:26.15 | preserved from sacrifice entirely. Consider once again your special | function. One is given you to see in him his perfect sinlessness. And |
| Tx:26.17 | Nothing He loves but must be sinless and beyond attack. Your special | function opens wide the door beyond which is the memory of His love |
| Tx:26.24 | Is not this like your special | function, where the separation is undone by change of purpose in what |
| Tx:26.25 | himself as needing it no more. And thus is he returned to his real | function of creating, which his forgiveness offers him again. |
| Tx:26.53 | effects. Who looks on them is but deceived. Forgiveness is the only | function here and serves to bring the joy this world denies to every |
| Tx:26.57 | is what you are. This is the miracle by which creation became your | function, sharing it with God. It is not understood apart from Him |
| Tx:26.89 | you, you have laid on it by rendering it purposeless, without the | function that the Holy Spirit sees. And simple justice has been thus |
| Tx:27.10 | Your | function is to [prove to] your brother that sin can have no cause. |
| Tx:27.10 | must it be to see yourself a picture of the proof that what your | function is can never be! The Holy Spirit's picture changes not the |
| Tx:27.10 | but waiting for a purpose to be given that it may fulfill the | function that it will receive. |
| Tx:27.12 | You but gave illusions of a purpose to a thing you made to hide your | function from yourself. This thing without a purpose cannot hide the |
| Tx:27.12 | function from yourself. This thing without a purpose cannot hide the | function that the Holy Spirit gave. Let, then, its purpose and your |
| Tx:27.12 | function that the Holy Spirit gave. Let, then, its purpose and your | function both be reconciled at last and seen as one. |
| Tx:27.22 | [Correction is not your | function. It belongs to One Who knows of fairness, not of guilt. If |
| Tx:27.22 | not of guilt. If you assume correction's role, you lose the | function of forgiveness. No one can forgive until he learns |
| Tx:27.22 | are the same, and therefore is correction not of you. Identity and | function are the same, and by your function do you know yourself. And |
| Tx:27.22 | not of you. Identity and function are the same, and by your | function do you know yourself. And thus, if you confuse your function |
| Tx:27.22 | by your function do you know yourself. And thus, if you confuse your | function with the function of Another, you must be confused about |
| Tx:27.22 | you know yourself. And thus, if you confuse your function with the | function of Another, you must be confused about yourself and who you |
| Tx:27.22 | and who you are. What is the separation but a wish to take God's | function from Him and deny that it is His? Yet if it is not His, it |
| Tx:27.23 | mind, identity must seem to be divided. Nor can anyone perceive a | function unified which has conflicting purposes and different ends. |
| Tx:27.23 | of your correction as the one more innocent than he. This splits his | function off from yours and gives you both a different role. And so |
| Tx:27.23 | role. And so you cannot be perceived as one and, with a single | function, that would mean a shared identity with but one end. |
| Tx:27.24 | [Correction you would do must separate, because that is the | function given it by you. When you perceive correction is the same as |
| Tx:27.24 | from the one you cherish and you think is yours. Thus does your | function seem divided, with a half in opposition to a half. And these |
| Tx:27.25 | is. From an idea of self as two, there comes a necessary view of | function split between the two. And what you would correct is only |
| Tx:27.26 | it is the other half. And this He does by giving both of you a | function that is one, not different. |
| Tx:27.27 | Correction is the | function given both, but neither one alone. And when it is fulfilled |
| Tx:27.27 | is divided purpose which cannot be shared, and so it cannot be the | function which the Holy Spirit sees as His. And you can rest assured |
| Tx:27.27 | sees as His. And you can rest assured that He will not fulfill a | function He cannot understand and recognize as His. For only thus can |
| Tx:27.27 | yours preserved intact, despite your separate views of what your | function is. If He upheld divided function, you were lost indeed. His |
| Tx:27.27 | your separate views of what your function is. If He upheld divided | function, you were lost indeed. His inability to see His goal divided |
| Tx:27.27 | for each of you preserves your Self from being made aware of any | function other than Its own. And thus is healing given both of you. |
| Tx:27.28 | as one because It is not split in purpose and conceives a single | function as Its only one. Here is the function given It conceived to |
| Tx:27.28 | purpose and conceives a single function as Its only one. Here is the | function given It conceived to be Its own and not apart from that Its |
| Tx:27.28 | Giver keeps because it has been shared. In His acceptance of this | function lies the means whereby your mind is unified. His single |
| Tx:27.35 | come, not to destroy, but to receive Its own. There is no choice of | function anywhere. The choice you fear to lose you never had. Yet |
| Tx:27.57 | could it tell a part of God Himself what it should feel and what its | function is. Yet must He love whatever you hold dear. And for each |
| Tx:27.61 | effects with you. And no one will elect to suffer more. What better | function could you serve than this? Be healed that you may heal, and |
| Tx:28.24 | a cause. The miracle is the first step in giving back to cause the | function of causation, not effect. For this confusion has produced |
| Tx:28.26 | it also shows that, having no effects, it is not cause because the | function of causation is to have effects. And where effects are gone, |
| Tx:28.44 | The Holy Spirit's | function is to take the broken picture of the Son of God and put the |
| Tx:28.52 | Creation proves reality because it shares the | function all creation shares. It is not made of little bits of glass, |
| Tx:29.12 | to demand escape from sin and pain of what was made to serve the | function of retaining sin and pain. For pain and sin are one |
| Tx:29.27 | In simplest form it can be said attack is a response to | function unfulfilled as you perceive the function. It can be in you |
| Tx:29.27 | attack is a response to function unfulfilled as you perceive the | function. It can be in you or someone else, but where it is |
| Tx:29.28 | When you are angry, is it not because someone has failed to fill the | function you allotted him? And does not this become the “reason” your |
| Tx:29.28 | more or less. They are desired or not. And each one represents some | function which you have assigned, some goal which an event, or body, |
| Tx:29.29 | becomes a brother giving you a chance to help if this becomes the | function of the dream. And dreams of sadness thus are turned to joy. |
| Tx:29.30 | What is your brother for? You do not know because your | function is obscure to you. Do not ascribe a role to him which you |
| Tx:29.30 | in every dream he has, and you have help to give him if you see the | function of the dream as He perceives its function, Who can utilize |
| Tx:29.30 | to give him if you see the function of the dream as He perceives its | function, Who can utilize all dreams as means to serve the function |
| Tx:29.30 | its function, Who can utilize all dreams as means to serve the | function given Him. Because He loves the dreamer not the dream, each |
| Tx:29.33 | very still and hear God's Voice in him and let It tell you what his | function is. He was created that you might be whole, for only the |
| Tx:29.36 | share this dream? Because unless the Holy Spirit gives the dream its | function, it was made for hate and will continue in death's services. |
| Tx:29.37 | dream that has been kept apart from use by Him Who sees a different | function for a dream. When dreams are shared, they lose the function |
| Tx:29.37 | function for a dream. When dreams are shared, they lose the | function of attack and separation, even though it was for this that |
| Tx:29.41 | You were not born to die. You cannot change, because your | function has been fixed by God. All other goals are set in time and |
| Tx:29.41 | it is gone. And where it once held seeming sway is now restored the | function God established for His Son in full awareness. Time can set |
| Tx:29.41 | its changelessness. There is no death because the living share the | function their Creator gave to them. Life's function cannot be to |

| W1:37.1 | This idea contains the first glimmerings of your true | function in the world or why you are here. Your purpose is to see the |
| W1:43.1 | so changed and purified that it will lead to knowledge. That is its | function as the Holy Spirit sees it. Therefore, that is its function |
| W1:43.1 | is its function as the Holy Spirit sees it. Therefore, that is its | function in truth. |

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

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

| W1:64.3 | few lessons, your function here is to be the light of the world, a | function given you by God. It is only the arrogance of the ego that |
| W1:64.4 | from all temptation. The Son of God is you. Only by fulfilling the | function given you by God will you be happy. That is because your |
| W1:64.4 | function given you by God will you be happy. That is because your | function is to be happy by using the means by which happiness becomes |
| W1:64.5 | way. Therefore every time you choose whether or not to fulfill your | function, you are really choosing whether to be happy or not. Let us |
| W1:64.8 | Let me not forget my | function. Let me not try to substitute mine for God's. Let me forgive |
| W1:64.9 | will come to help you if you remember the crucial importance of your | function to you and to the world. |
| W1:64.12 | This is the world it is my | function to save. |
| W1:65.1 | your commitment to salvation. It also reminds you that you have no | function other than this. Both of these thoughts are obviously |
| W1:65.1 | still cherish others. The full acceptance of salvation as your only | function necessarily entails two phases: the recognition of salvation |
| W1:65.1 | necessarily entails two phases: the recognition of salvation as your | function and the relinquishment of all the other goals you have |
| W1:65.1 | world. This is the only way in which you can say and mean, “My only | function is the one God gave me.” This is the only way in which you |
| W1:65.7 | thought reflects a goal that is preventing me from accepting my only | function. |
| W1:65.9 | On this clean slate, let my true | function be written for me. |
| W1:65.13 | My only | function is the one God gave me. I want no other and I have no other. |
| W1:66.1 | our recent lessons on the connection between fulfilling your | function and achieving happiness. This is because you do not really |
| W1:66.2 | battle with the Holy Spirit on the fundamental question of what your | function is. So does it do constant battle with the Holy Spirit about |
| W1:66.2 | ego attacks and the Holy Spirit does not respond. He knows what your | function is. He knows that it is your happiness. |
| W1:66.3 | this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the truth about your | function. We will not engage in ceaseless arguments about what it is. |
| W1:66.4 | the fact that not only is there a very real connection between the | function God gave you and your happiness, but that they are actually |
| W1:66.4 | are actually identical. God gives you only happiness. Therefore the | function He gave you must be happiness, even if it appears to be |
| W1:66.6 | God gives me only happiness. He has given my | function to me. Therefore my function must be happiness. |
| W1:66.6 | me only happiness. He has given my function to me. Therefore my | function must be happiness. |
| W1:66.9 | The second premise is that God has given you your | function. We have seen that there are only two parts of your mind. |
| W1:66.10 | Thus it must be that your | function is established by God through His Voice or is made by the |
| W1:66.10 | you have made to replace Him. Which is true? Unless God gave your | function to you, it must be the gift of the ego. Does the ego really |
| W1:66.11 | today. Think also about the many forms which the illusion of your | function has taken in your mind and the many ways in which you tried |
| W1:66.15 | My happiness and | function are one because God has given me both. |
| W1:69.3 | is our only need. There is no other purpose here and no other | function to fulfill. Learning salvation is our only goal. Let us end |
| W1:R2.4 | are dedicated to salvation. Be determined each day not to leave your | function unfulfilled. |
| W1:81.2 | I am the light of the world. How holy am I, who have been given the | function of lighting up the world! Let me be still before my |
| W1:81.5 | [62] Forgiveness is my | function as the light of the world. It is through accepting my |
| W1:81.5 | is my function as the light of the world. It is through accepting my | function that I will see the light in me. And in this light will my |
| W1:81.5 | function that I will see the light in me. And in this light will my | function stand clear and perfectly unambiguous before my sight. My |
| W1:81.5 | my sight. My acceptance does not depend on my recognizing what my | function is, for I do not yet understand forgiveness. Yet I will |
| W1:81.7 | Let this help me learn what forgiveness means. Let me not separate my | function from my will. I would not use this for an alien purpose. |
| W1:82.5 | [64] Let me not forget my | function. I would not forget my function because I would remember my |
| W1:82.5 | [64] Let me not forget my function. I would not forget my | function because I would remember my Self. I cannot fulfill my |
| W1:82.5 | my function because I would remember my Self. I cannot fulfill my | function by forgetting. And unless I fulfill my function, I will not |
| W1:82.5 | I cannot fulfill my function by forgetting. And unless I fulfill my | function, I will not experience the joy that God intends for me. |
| W1:82.7 | Let me not use this to hide my | function from me. I would use this as an opportunity to fulfill my |
| W1:82.7 | function from me. I would use this as an opportunity to fulfill my | function. This may threaten my ego but cannot change my function in |
| W1:82.7 | fulfill my function. This may threaten my ego but cannot change my | function in any way. |
| W1:83.2 | [65] My only | function is the one God gave me. I have no function but the one God |
| W1:83.2 | [65] My only function is the one God gave me. I have no | function but the one God gave me. This recognition releases me from |
| W1:83.2 | to think. All doubt must disappear as I acknowledge that my only | function is the one God gave me. |
| W1:83.4 | My perception of this does not change my | function. This does not give me a function other than the one God |
| W1:83.4 | of this does not change my function. This does not give me a | function other than the one God gave me. Let me not use this to |
| W1:83.4 | other than the one God gave me. Let me not use this to justify a | function God did not give me. |
| W1:83.5 | [66] My happiness and my | function are one. All things that come from God are one. They come |
| W1:83.5 | They come from Oneness and must be received as one. Fulfilling my | function is my happiness because both come from the same Source. And |
| W1:83.7 | This cannot separate my happiness from my | function. The oneness of my happiness and my function remains wholly |
| W1:83.7 | my happiness from my function. The oneness of my happiness and my | function remains wholly unaffected by this. Nothing, including this, |
| W1:83.7 | including this, can justify the illusion of happiness apart from my | function. |
| W1:89.2 | laws of God entitle me to have that I may use it on behalf of the | function He has given me. |
| W1:96.5 | joy. Its power comes from Spirit, and it is fulfilling happily its | function here. Yet mind can also see itself divorced from Spirit and |
| W1:96.5 | perceive itself within a body it confuses with itself. Without its | function then, it has no peace, and happiness is alien to its |
| W1:96.6 | and sees itself as helpless, limited, and weak. Dissociated from its | function now, it thinks it is alone and separate, attacked by armies |
| W1:96.15 | to you will tell you you are saved and that your mind has found the | function that it sought to lose. Your Self will welcome it and give |

| W1:98.3 | to do. They do not doubt their own ability because they know their | function will be filled completely in the perfect time and place. |
| W1:98.5 | you? Is it not worth five minutes hourly to recognize your special | function here? Is not five minutes of the hour but a small request to |
| W1:98.11 | He will do the rest. He will enable you to understand your special | function. He will open up the way to happiness, and peace and trust |
| W1:98.11 | say is true. And you will have conviction then of Him Who knows the | function that you have on earth as well as Heaven. He will be with |
| W1:99.6 | not created by the only Source it knows. This is the thought whose | function is to save by giving you its function as your own. |
| W1:99.6 | This is the thought whose function is to save by giving you its | function as your own. |
| W1:99.7 | Salvation is your | function with the One to Whom the plan was given. Now are you |
| W1:99.8 | Salvation is my only | function here. God still is Love, and this is not His Will. |
| W1:99.13 | Salvation is my only | function here. Salvation and forgiveness are the same. |
| W1:99.14 | Then turn to Him who shares your | function here, and let Him teach you what you need to learn to lay |
| W1:99.15 | your Father gave. You do not want to be another self. You have no | function that is not of God. Forgive yourself the one you think you |
| W1:99.17 | Salvation is my only | function here. God still is Love, and this is not His Will. |
| W1:99.18 | Your only | function tells you you are one. Remind yourself of this between the |
| W1:99.19 | Salvation is my only | function here. |
| W1:100.1 | bodies which lead separate lives and go their separate ways. One | function shared by separate minds unites them in one purpose, for |
| W1:100.2 | be understood by those to whom He sends you. They will see their | function in your shining face and hear God calling to them in your |
| W1:100.6 | Today we will attempt to understand joy is our | function here. If you are sad, your part is unfulfilled and all the |
| W1:100.9 | which proves to us and all the world God's Will for us. It is your | function that you find it here and that you find it now. For this you |
| W1:102.5 | I share God's Will for happiness for me, and I accept it as my | function now. |
| W1:102.6 | Then seek this | function deep within your mind, for it is there, awaiting but your |
| W1:102.7 | Be happy, for your only | function here is happiness. You have no need to be less loving to |
| W1:102.7 | to tell yourself that you have now accepted happiness as your one | function. And be sure that you are joining with God's Will in doing |
| W1:106.6 | It is here and will today be given unto you. And you will learn your | function from the One Who chose it in your Father's Name for you. |
| W1:107.11 | from Him. You speak to Him today and make your pledge to let His | function be fulfilled through you. To share His function is to share |
| W1:107.11 | pledge to let His function be fulfilled through you. To share His | function is to share His joy. His confidence is with you, as you say: |
| W1:107.15 | Do not forget your | function for today. Each time you tell yourself with confidence, |
| W1:114.3 | [98] I will accept my part in God's plan for salvation. What can my | function be but to accept the Word of God, Who has created me, for |
| W1:115.2 | [99] Salvation is my only | function here. My function here is to forgive the world for all the |
| W1:115.2 | [99] Salvation is my only function here. My | function here is to forgive the world for all the errors I have made. |
| W1:115.5 | Salvation is my only | function here. |
| W1:123.3 | changeless as Himself. Be grateful you are saved. Be glad you have a | function in salvation to fulfill. Be thankful that your value far |
| W1:135.14 | is health assured. For everything the mind employs for this will | function flawlessly and with the strength that has been given it and |
| W1:135.27 | or magical beliefs can still have value when you have received your | function from the Voice of God Himself? |
| W1:137.6 | Yet think not healing is unworthy of your | function here. For anti-Christ becomes more powerful than Christ to |
| W1:137.13 | We will remember, as the hour strikes, our | function is to let our minds be healed that we may carry healing to |
| W1:137.16 | sick and offer blessing where there was attack. Nor will we let this | function be forgot as every hour of the day slips by, remembering our |
| W1:137.16 | be forgot as every hour of the day slips by, remembering our | function with this thought: |
| W1:153.8 | world, and we would not exchange for foolishness the endless joy our | function offers us. We would not let our happiness slip by because a |
| W1:153.11 | It is the | function of God's ministers to help their brothers choose as they |
| W1:154.1 | but attempts to hold decision off, and to delay commitment to our | function. It is not our part to judge our worth, nor can we know what |
| W1:154.2 | appointed role may be, it was selected by the Voice for God, Whose | function is to speak for you as well. Seeing your strengths exactly |
| W1:154.3 | at last there is One Voice in you. And that One Voice appoints your | function and relays it to you, giving you the strength to understand |
| W1:154.15 | how they have changed our minds about ourselves and what our | function is. For as we prove that we accept no will we do not share, |
| W1:184.9 | world, forgetting them forever; yet were asked to take a teaching | function. You have need to use the symbols of the world a while. But |
| W1:186.1 | from every mind. Here is the thought of true humility which holds no | function as your own but that which has been given you. It offers |
| W1:186.2 | Let us not fight our | function. We did not establish it. It is not our idea. The means are |
| W1:186.4 | to us what He would have us do. We do not doubt our adequacy for the | function He will offer us. We will be certain only that He knows our |
| W1:186.8 | And so we find our peace. We will accept the | function God has given us, for all illusions rest upon the weird |
| W1:186.10 | will go and leave your mind unclouded and serene when you accept the | function given you. The images you make give rise to but conflicting |
| W1:186.11 | the sun's return each morning to dispel the night, your truly given | function stands out clear and wholly unambiguous. There is no doubt |
| W1:186.12 | voice direct you. Hear instead a certain Voice Which tells you of a | function given you by your Creator, Who remembers you and urges that |
| W1:186.14 | is given here as it is needed. In this form, you can fulfill your | function even here, although what love will mean to you when |
| W1:186.14 | Salvation of the world depends on you who can forgive. Such is your | function here. |
| W1:192.1 | name, forever one with God and with your Self. Yet what can such a | function mean within a world of envy, hatred, and attack? Therefore |
| W1:192.1 | within a world of envy, hatred, and attack? Therefore you have a | function in the world in its own terms. For who can understand a |
| W1:192.2 | Forgiveness represents your | function here. It is not God's creation, for it is the means by which |
| W1:192.10 | now. Deny him not. His Father's Love for him belongs to you. Your | function here on earth is only to forgive him, that you may accept |
| W1:193.4 | into the mind of His most holy Son with peace and joy fulfills His | function now. He redirects each lesson you would teach in hate to one |
| W1:195.6 | be made which would reduce our wholeness nor impair or change our | function to complete the One Who is Himself completion. We give |
| W1:197.9 | Earn now the gratitude you have denied yourself when you forgot the | function God has given you. But never think that He has ever ceased |
| W1:200.6 | What does forgiveness do? In truth it has no | function and does nothing, for it is unknown in Heaven. It is only |
| W1:200.6 | It is only hell where it is needed and where it must serve a mighty | function. Is not the escape of God's beloved Son from evil dreams |
| W1:R6.5 | it every time the hour strikes or we remember in between we have a | function that transcends the world we see. Beyond this and a |
| W1:205.1 | the aim of all my living here, the end I seek, my purpose and my | function and my life while I abide where I am not at home. I am not a |
| W1:212.1 | [192] I have a | function God would have me fill. I seek the function that would set |
| W1:212.1 | [192] I have a function God would have me fill. I seek the | function that would set me free from all the vain illusions of the |
| W1:212.1 | would set me free from all the vain illusions of the world. Only the | function God has given me can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and |
| W2:WF.5 | your ultimate success. He has forgiven you already, for such is His | function given Him by God. Now must you share His function and |
| W2:WF.5 | for such is His function given Him by God. Now must you share His | function and forgive whom He has saved, whose sinlessness He sees, |
| W2:WIW.5 | has been made complete. And let us not attempt to change our | function. We must save the world. For we who made it must behold it |
| W2:257.1 | No one can serve contradicting goals and serve them well. Nor can he | function without deep distress and great depression. Let us therefore |
| W2:270.1 | Your memory returns to him. And now his will is one with Yours. His | function now is but Your own, and every thought except Your own is |
| W2:WIHS.5 | is restored to God's beloved Son. Would you refuse to take the | function of completing God when all He wills is that you be complete? |
| W2:WILJ.2 | sin and wholly purposeless. Without a cause and now without a | function in Christ's sight, it merely slips away to nothingness. |
| W2:WICR.4 | which know their oneness and their unity with their Creator. Let our | function be only to let this memory return, only to let God's Will be |
| W2:330.1 | Let us this day accept forgiveness as our only | function. Why should we attack our minds and give them images of |
| W2:WIM.1 | error but does not attempt to go beyond perception nor exceed the | function of forgiveness. Thus it stays within time's limits. Yet it |
| W2:343.1 | Your Son can make no sacrifice, for he must be complete, having the | function of completing You. I am complete because I am Your Son. I |
| W2:WAI.2 | is not for words to speak of nor describe. Yet we can realize our | function here, and words can speak of this and teach it, too, if we |
| W2:WAI.3 | and perceive all things as kindly and as good. We do not seek a | function that is past the gates of Heaven. Knowledge will return when |
| W2:FL.3 | let us dedicate our minds, directing all our thoughts to serve the | function of salvation. Unto us the aim is given to forgive the world. |
| W2:FL.4 | It is our | function to remember Him on earth, as it is given us to be His own |
| M:1.2 | because of this that the plan of the teachers was established. Their | function is to save time. Each one begins as a single light, but with |
| M:4.3 | This is the foundation on which their ability to fulfill their | function rests. Perception is the result of learning. In fact, |
| M:4.14 | early in his training—that harmfulness completely obliterates his | function from his awareness. It will make him confused, fearful, |

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

| M:22.1 | of God has taken accepting the Atonement for himself as his only | function. What is there, then, he cannot heal? What miracle can be |
| M:22.2 | is comparatively rare. The teacher of God may have accepted the | function God has given him long before he has learned all that his |
| M:22.6 | to heal the sense of separation that has made him sick. It is your | function to recognize for him that what he believes about himself is |
| M:26.4 | Do not despair, then, because of limitations. It is your | function to escape from them, but not to be without them. If you |
| M:28.1 | It is the dream in which the body functions perfectly, having no | function except communication. It is the lesson in which learning |
| M:28.6 | is replaced with blessing. Judgment is laid by and given Him Whose | function judgment is. And in His Final Judgment is restored the truth |
| M:29.2 | is His, and He alone is fit to assume it. To do so is His | function. To refer the questions to Him is yours. Would you want to |
| M:29.3 | the illusion you have done so, making fear inevitable. To return the | function to the One to Whom it belongs is thus the escape from fear. |

| Tx:11.96 | and thus depends on one-dimensional time, proceeding from past to | future. No one who believes this can understand what always means. |
| Tx:11.96 | and always must be now. Guilt, then, is a way of holding past and | future in your minds to ensure the ego's continuity. For if what has |
| Tx:11.97 | guiltlessness, you learn that the past has never been, and so the | future is needless. The future, in time, is always associated with |

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

| Tx:13.13 | accept your treasure, and if you place your faith in the past, the | future will be like it. Whatever you hold as dear, you think is |
| Tx:15.2 | and that the results of the Holy Spirit's teaching are far in the | future. This is not so. For the Holy Spirit uses time in His own way |

| Tx:26.71 | is a present cause. And it is this that needs correction, not a | future state. |
| Tx:26.72 | The plans you make for safety all are laid within the | future, where you cannot plan. No purpose has been given it as yet, |
| Tx:26.74 | it appears at all. Why are not its effects apparent then? Why in the | future? And you seek to be content with sighing and with “reasoning” |

| W1:28.1 | commitments. The question of whether you will keep them in the | future is not our concern here. If you are willing at least to make |
| W1:39.4 | that was ever asked, is being asked now, or will be asked in the | future. Your holiness means the end of guilt and therefore the end of |
| W1:109.5 | cares and no concerns, no burdens, no anxiety, no pain, no fear of | future, and no past regrets. In timelessness you rest, while time |
| W1:110.2 | at any time or place. It is enough to heal the past and make the | future free. It is enough to let the present be accepted as it is. It |
| W1:110.4 | the past undone; the present saved to quietly extend into a timeless | future. If you are as God created you, then there has been no |
| W1:121.5 | The unforgiving mind is in despair, without the prospect of a | future which can offer anything but more despair. Yet it regards its |
| W1:127.9 | Today the legion of the | future years of waiting for salvation disappears before the |
| W1:127.9 | of what you learn. Let us give thanks today that we are spared a | future like the past. Today we leave the past behind us, never more |
| W1:127.9 | remembered. And we raise our eyes upon a different present, where a | future shines unlike the past in every attribute. |
| W1:131.7 | It is here today. Time is the great illusion; it is past or in the | future. Yet this cannot be, if it is where God wills His Son to be. |
| W1:132.3 | You free the past from what you thought before. You free the | future from all ancient thoughts of seeking what you do not want to |
| W1:132.3 | world set free. For as you let the past be lifted and release the | future from your ancient fears, you find escape and give it to the |
| W1:135.2 | And it is this you do when you attempt to plan the | future, activate the past, or organize the present as you wish. You |
| W1:135.16 | engaged in planning for itself is occupied in setting up control of | future happenings. It does not think that it will be provided for |

| W1:135.16 | on the idea the past has taught enough to let the mind direct its | future course. |
| W1:135.17 | for change. What it has learned before becomes the basis for its | future goals. Its past experience directs its choice of what will |
| W1:135.17 | does not see that here and now is everything it needs to guarantee a | future quite unlike the past without a continuity of any old ideas |
| W1:135.20 | Your present trust in Him is the defense which promises a | future undisturbed, without a trace of sorrow and with joy which |
| W1:135.20 | only immortality. Let no defenses but your present trust direct the | future, and this life becomes a meaningful encounter with the truth |
| W1:158.3 | We but undertake a journey that is over. Yet it seems to have a | future still unknown to us. |
| W1:169.6 | It returns the mind into the endless present, where the past and | future cannot be conceived. It lies beyond salvation—past all |
| W1:181.3 | and only this, for just a little while. We do not care about our | future goals, and what we saw an instant previous has no concern for |
| W1:181.4 | A major hazard to success has been involvement with your past and | future goals. You have been quite preoccupied with how extremely |
| W1:181.4 | your way again. How could this matter? For the past is gone, the | future but imagined. These concerns are but defenses against present |
| W1:181.6 | So, for a little while, without regard to past or | future, should such blocks arise, we will transcend them with |
| W1:188.2 | This light cannot be lost. Why wait to find it in the | future or believe it has been lost already or was never there? It can |
| W1:194.4 | God holds your | future as He holds your past and present. They are one to Him, and so |
| W1:194.4 | lack of sequence really found in time. You are but asked to let the | future go and place it in God's hands. And you will see by your |
| W1:194.4 | in His hands as well because the past will punish you no more and | future dread will now be meaningless. |
| W1:194.5 | Release the | future. For the past is gone, and what is present, freed from its |
| W1:194.7 | What worry can beset the one who gives his | future to the loving hands of God? What can he suffer? What can cause |
| W1:194.7 | can he regard except with love? For he who has escaped all fear of | future pain has found his way to present peace and certainty of care |
| W1:194.8 | Place, then, your | future in the hands of God. For thus you call the memory of Him to |
| W1:195.9 | and pushed about without a thought or care for us or for our | future. Gratitude becomes the single thought we substitute for these |
| W1:214.1 | [194] I place the | future in the hands of God. The past is gone; the future is not yet. |
| W1:214.1 | [194] I place the future in the hands of God. The past is gone; the | future is not yet. Now am I freed from both. For what God gives can |
| W2:279.1 | dreams is there a time when he appears to be in prison and awaits a | future freedom if it be at all. Yet in reality his dreams are gone, |
| W2:308.1 | of what time is for. Time's purpose cannot be to keep the past and | future one. The only interval in which I can be saved from time is |
| W2:308.1 | come to set me free. The birth of Christ is now, without a past or | future. He has come to give His present blessing to the world, |
| W2:314.1 | From new perception of the world there comes a | future very different from the past. The future now is recognized as |
| W2:314.1 | of the world there comes a future very different from the past. The | future now is recognized as but extension of the present. Past |
| W2:314.1 | and being formless, it has no effects. Death will not claim the | future now, for life is now its goal, and all the needed means are |

| W2:314.2 | and sure that You will keep Your present promises and guide the | future in their holy light. |
| M:4.20 | answer. And this is true for everything that happens now or in the | future. The past as well held no mistakes—nothing that did not |
| M:10.3 | would be wholly fair to everyone on whom it rests, now and in the | future. Who is in a position to do this? Who except in grandiose |

| Tx:16.28 | Who created you as you are. Sooner or later must everyone bridge the | gap which he imagines exists between his selves. Each one builds this |
| Tx:16.28 | his selves. Each one builds this bridge which carries him across the | gap as soon as he is willing to expend some little effort on behalf |
| Tx:26.42 | by love. And so you die each day to live again until you cross the | gap between past and present, which is not a gap at all. Such is each |
| Tx:26.42 | until you cross the gap between past and present, which is not a | gap at all. Such is each life—a seeming interval from birth to |
| Tx:27.71 | an enormous world, with different dreams about the truth in you. The | gap between reality and dreams lies not between the dreaming of the |
| Tx:27.72 | the space between your dreams and your reality. The little | gap you do not even see, the birthplace of illusions and of fear, the |
| Tx:28.15 | come to take the place of loss? What better way to close the little | gap between illusions and reality than to allow the memory of God to |
| Tx:28.30 | seen the cause of sickness where it is, and you have overlooked the | gap between you, where the sickness has been bred. Thus are you |
| Tx:28.30 | been bred. Thus are you joined in sickness, to preserve the little | gap unhealed, where sickness is kept carefully protected, cherished, |
| Tx:28.30 | and upheld by firm belief, lest God should come to bridge the little | gap that leads to Him. Fight not His coming with illusions, for it is |
| Tx:28.31 | is the end of fear, and love was never in the world of dreams. The | gap is little. Yet it holds the seeds of pestilence and every form of |
| Tx:28.31 | give a cause to sickness which is not its cause. The purpose of the | gap is all the cause that sickness has. For it was made to keep you |
| Tx:28.32 | by. And covered just as fast, as water rushes in to close the | gap and as the waves in joining cover it. Where is the gap between |
| Tx:28.32 | to close the gap and as the waves in joining cover it. Where is the | gap between the waves when they have joined and covered up the space |
| Tx:28.32 | grounds for sickness when the minds have joined to close the little | gap between them where the seeds of sickness seemed to grow? |
| Tx:28.34 | nothing left behind the open door. What is the world except a little | gap perceived to tear eternity apart and break it into days and |
| Tx:28.35 | Be not afraid, but let your world be lit by miracles. And where the | gap was seen to stand between you, join your brother there. And |
| Tx:28.36 | and shares it equally with him. And in Their sharing there can be no | gap in which abundance falters and grows thin. Here can the lean |
| Tx:28.39 | in brotherhood. His body and his dreams but seem to make a little | gap, where yours have joined with his. |
| Tx:28.40 | And yet, between your minds there is no | gap. To join his dreams is thus to meet him not because his dreams |
| Tx:28.40 | in bondage to his dream. And dreams of fear will haunt the little | gap, inhabited but by illusions which you have supported in each |
| Tx:28.41 | he will join you where you stand. Call not to him to meet you in the | gap between you, or you must believe that it is your reality as well |
| Tx:28.42 | You share confusion and you are confused, for in the | gap no stable self exists. What is the same seems different because |
| Tx:28.43 | Holy Spirit is in both your minds, and He is One because there is no | gap that separates His Oneness from Itself. The gap between your |
| Tx:28.43 | because there is no gap that separates His Oneness from Itself. The | gap between your bodies matters not, for what is joined in Him is |
| Tx:28.44 | this is the picture that the miracle will place within the little | gap, left clean of all the seeds of sickness and of sin. And here the |
| Tx:28.45 | I thank you, Father, knowing you will come to close each little | gap that lies between the broken pieces of Your holy Son. Your |
| Tx:28.46 | not of Him has no effects. What then would you perceive within the | gap? The seeds of sickness come from the belief that there is joy in |
| Tx:28.46 | But miracles are the result when you do not insist on seeing in the | gap what is not there. Your willingness to let illusions go is all |
| Tx:28.47 | but a sense of limitation? Of a splitting off and separating from? A | gap perceived between [ourselves] and what is seen as health? The |
| Tx:28.50 | You have conceived a little | gap between illusions and the truth to be the place where all your |
| Tx:28.51 | ears and eyes perceive these countless fragments seen within the | gap which you imagined, and let them persuade their maker his |
| Tx:28.52 | to attest its truth. Reality does not depend on this. There is no | gap which separates the truth from dreams and from illusions. Truth |
| Tx:28.53 | You who believe there is a little | gap between you, do not understand that it is here that you are kept |
| Tx:28.53 | not exist because the place where you perceive it is not real. The | gap is carefully concealed in fog, and misty pictures rise to cover |
| Tx:28.53 | and changing shapes, forever unsubstantial and unsure. Yet in the | gap is nothing. And there are no awesome secrets and no darkened |
| Tx:28.53 | tombs where terror rises from the bones of death. Look at the little | gap, and you behold the innocence and emptiness of sin that you will |
| Tx:28.54 | Who punishes the body is insane. For here the little | gap is seen, and yet it is not here. It has not judged itself nor |
| Tx:28.55 | takes no sides and judges not the road it travels. It perceives no | gap because it does not hate. It can be used for hate, but it cannot |
| Tx:28.57 | The body represents the | gap between the little bit of mind you call your own and all the rest |
| Tx:28.58 | is your wish, it can have no effects. Whoever says, “There is no | gap between my mind and yours” has kept God's promise, not his tiny |
| Tx:28.60 | for nothing. For there is no lack in him. An empty space, a little | gap, would be a lack. And it is only there that he could want for |
| Tx:28.60 | he could want for something he has not. A space where God is not, a | gap between the Father and the Son is not the will of either, who |
| Tx:28.60 | to what He wills as part of what He is. The promise that there is no | gap between Himself and what He is cannot be false. What will can |
| Tx:28.60 | between what must be one, and in Whose wholeness there can be no | gap? |
| Tx:28.62 | Either there is a | gap between you and your brother, or you are as one. There is no in |
| Tx:28.65 | its weakness lies not in itself but in the frailty of the little | gap of nothingness whereon it stands? What can be safe which rests |
| Tx:28.66 | on God's promise that His Son is safe forever in Himself. What | gap can interpose itself between the safety of this shelter and its |
| Tx:29.1 | is absent. There is nothing to be feared. There is no way in which a | gap could be conceived of in the wholeness that is His. The |
| Tx:29.1 | in the wholeness that is His. The compromise the least and littlest | gap would represent in His eternal love is quite impossible. For it |
| Tx:29.1 | sometimes fail. All this do you believe, when you perceive a | gap between your brother and yourself. How could you trust Him, then? |
| Tx:29.1 | in His Love. Be wary, then; let Him not come too close, and leave a | gap between you and His love through which you can escape if there be |
| Tx:29.2 | love is fearful—hate is love. This is the consequence the little | gap must bring to those who cherish it and think that it is their |
| Tx:29.3 | made your friendship possible a little while. But not without a | gap between you, lest he turn again into an enemy. [Let him come |
| Tx:29.4 | The | gap between you is not one of space between two separate bodies. This |
| Tx:29.8 | that nothing stands between you? Would you know there is no | gap behind which you can hide? There is a shock that comes to those |
| Tx:29.9 | Yet all that happens when the | gap is gone is peace eternal. Nothing more than that, and nothing |
| Tx:29.9 | what could induce you to abandon Him? What toys or trinkets in the | gap could serve to hold you back an instant from His love? Would you |
| Tx:29.22 | will you see your brother then and understand what really fills the | gap so long perceived as keeping you apart. |
| Tx:29.54 | or a false belief—some form of anti-Christ which constitutes a | gap between the Christ and what you see. An idol is a wish made |
| Tx:29.58 | Where is an idol? Nowhere! Can there be a | gap in what is infinite, a place where time can interrupt eternity? A |
| Tx:30.41 | your will could not be satisfied with empty forms made but to fill a | gap which is not there. It is not this you want. Creation gives no |
| Tx:30.49 | truthful ones. All idols are the false ideas you made to fill the | gap you think arose between yourself and what is true. And you attack |
| Tx:30.51 | The | gap that is not there is filled with toys in countless forms. And |
| Tx:30.56 | the dream of separation start to fade and disappear. For here the | gap that is not there begins to be perceived without the toys of |
| Tx:30.56 | the substitute for fear. Such is the only rule for happy dreams. The | gap is emptied of the toys of fear, and then its unreality is plain. |
| Tx:30.62 | not create His Son again that what is his be given back to him. The | gap between your brother and yourself was never there. And what the |

| W1:155.10 | Yet at the journey's ending there will be no | gap, no distance between truth and you. And all illusions walking in |
| W1:184.12 | are unified; all space is filled with truth's reflection. Every | gap is closed and separation healed. The Name of God is the |
| W2:WIHS.1 | mediates between illusions and the truth. As He must bridge the | gap between reality and dreams, perception leads to knowledge through |

| Tx:18.80 | they bring your Self with them. And lead them gently to your quiet | garden and receive their blessing there. So will it grow and stretch |

| Tx:18.83 | and with happy laughter, and it will fall away. And walk into the | garden love has prepared for both of you. |

| Tx:26.19 | they are judged to be untrue. This borderland is just beyond the | gate of Heaven. Here is every thought made pure and wholly simple. |
| Tx:26.20 | They are brought together, and only one continues past the | gate where Oneness is. Salvation is a borderland where place and time |
| Tx:26.25 | into a simple world where justice can be reflected from beyond the | gate behind which total lack of limits lies. Nothing in boundless |
| Tx:26.25 | is charity within the world gives way to simple justice past the | gate that opens into Heaven. No one forgives unless he has believed |
| Tx:26.28 | Forgiveness brings no little miracles to lay before the | gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God Himself comes to receive each |
| Tx:26.29 | between you still is holding back the happy opening of Heaven's | gate. How little is the hindrance which withholds the wealth of |
| Tx:26.30 | it many different ways. All learning is a help or hindrance to the | gate of Heaven. Nothing in between is possible. There are two |
| Tx:26.31 | goal as high as learning can achieve? Think not the way to Heaven's | gate is difficult at all. Nothing you undertake with certain purpose |
| Tx:26.43 | worlds. You have gone on and reached the world that lies at Heaven's | gate. There is no hindrance to the Will of God nor any need that you |
| Tx:27.3 | in Heaven in your blood and death and go before him, closing off the | gate and damning him to hell. Yet this is writ in hell and not in |
| Tx:30.64 | away from fear forever and to go straight on and quickly reach the | gate of Heaven itself. For He Whose hand you hold was waiting but for |
| W1:110.13 | Word of God that sets you free. This is the key that opens up the | gate of Heaven, and which lets you enter in the peace of God and His |
| W1:133.17 | then receive what waits for everyone who reaches unencumbered to the | gate of Heaven, which swings open as he comes. Should you begin to |

| W1:193.20 | these selfsame words. And then you hold the key that opens Heaven's | gate and brings the Love of God the Father down to earth at last, to |
| W1:194.1 | behind. Your foot has reached the lawns that welcome you to Heaven's | gate, the quiet place of peace where you await with certainty the |
| W1:200.8 | perceived as different and leading from this fresh perception to the | gate of Heaven and the way beyond. Peace is the answer to conflicting |

| Tx:18.97 | it took, lifted high above the darkness and gently placed before the | gates of Heaven. The holy instant in which you were united is but the |

| Tx:19.12 | It is the messenger of the new perception sent forth to | gather witnesses unto its coming and to return their messages to you. |
| Tx:19.39 | then? When God has taken the last step Himself, the Holy Spirit will | gather all your thanks and gratitude which you have offered Him and |

gave (253) | ||
| Tx:2.5 | as defined above, is a fundamental attribute of God which He | gave to His Son. In the creation, God projected His creative ability |

| Tx:4.16 | are not at peace because you are not fulfilling your function. God | gave you a very lofty responsibility which you are not meeting. You |
| Tx:4.30 | therefore continually preoccupied with the scarcity principle which | gave rise to it. This is the meaning of Freud's “reality principle” |
| Tx:4.69 | has every reason to do this according to the thought system which | gave rise to it and which it serves. Sane judgment would inevitably |
| Tx:5.22 | literal sense; you are part of Him. When you chose to leave Him, He | gave you a Voice to speak for Him because He could no longer share |
| Tx:5.27 | because we were created as equals. It was only my decision that | gave me all power in Heaven and earth. My only gift to you is to help |

| Tx:5.91 | to God the mind as He created it. He asks you only for what He | gave, knowing that this giving will heal you. Sanity is wholeness, |
| Tx:5.93 | as I told you before, the remedy is not of your making. God Himself | gave you the perfect correction for everything you have made which is |
| Tx:6.37 | He offers the whole Kingdom always. This is the one message God | gave to Him and for which He must speak, because that is what He is. |
| Tx:6.55 | sanity, which is the one thing in which you can find the sanity He | gave you. |

| Tx:7.100 | Yet the function which God Himself | gave your minds through His you may deny, but you cannot prevent. It |
| Tx:8.17 | to teach this, but you do not. That is why you need Him and why God | gave Him to you. Only His teaching will release your will to God's, |
| Tx:8.24 | everything belongs to Him. Giving of your self is the function He | gave you. Fulfilling it perfectly will teach you what you have of |
| Tx:8.32 | can oppose your will, as nothing God created can oppose His. God | gave your will its power, which I can only acknowledge in honor of |
| Tx:8.39 | I can share [my perfect confidence in His promise, because I know He | gave me] this confidence for both of us and all of us. I bring God's |

| Tx:12.56 | brothers, and in the darkness you cannot look upon the light you | gave to them. |
| Tx:12.57 | wake. In your name He has given for you and given you the gifts He | gave. God's Son is still as loving as his Father. Continuous with his |
| Tx:13.13 | The world can give you only what you | gave it, for being nothing but your own projection, it has no meaning |
| Tx:13.13 | and you will not see, because your faith will be rewarded as you | gave it. You will accept your treasure, and if you place your faith |
| Tx:13.39 | You whose minds are darkened by doubt and guilt, remember this: God | gave the Holy Spirit to you and gave Him the mission to remove all |
| Tx:13.39 | doubt and guilt, remember this: God gave the Holy Spirit to you and | gave Him the mission to remove all doubt and every trace of guilt |
| Tx:13.75 | He so freely and so gladly offers you. He offers you but what God | gave Him for you. You need not decide whether or not you are |
| Tx:13.78 | that salvation lay in you alone. Salvation is of Him to Whom God | gave it for you. He has not forgotten it. Forget Him not, and He will |
| Tx:13.86 | acknowledged. Yet truth is offered first to be received, even as God | gave it first to His Son. The first in time means nothing, but the |
| Tx:14.32 | In the darkness you have obscured the glory God | gave you and the power He bestowed upon His guiltless Son. All this |
| Tx:14.61 | Him, already learned for every Child of light by Him to Whom God | gave it. This lesson shines with God's glory, for in it lies His |
| Tx:15.22 | you could never be content with it. Littleness is the offering you | gave yourself. You offered this in place of magnitude, and you |
| Tx:15.27 | When God | gave Himself to you in your creation, He established you as host to |
| Tx:15.54 | it becomes one to you. The meaning of love is the meaning God | gave to it. Give to it any meaning apart from His, and it is |
| Tx:15.62 | be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me the Holy Spirit | gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no need that you perceive |
| Tx:15.82 | Think but an instant on this: God | gave the Sonship to you to ensure your perfect creation. This was His |
| Tx:15.92 | birth through Him. The only gift I can accept of you is the gift I | gave to you. Release me as I will your release. The time of Christ we |
| Tx:15.108 | I give you that you may give it and return it to the Father, Who | gave it to me. For in the time of Christ, communication is restored, |
| Tx:16.42 | eternity. Waken from time and answer fearlessly the call of Him Who | gave eternity to you in your creation. On this side of the bridge to |
| Tx:16.59 | must be unnatural. For God created love as He would have it be and | gave it as it is. Love has no meaning except as its Creator defined |
| Tx:16.68 | you. And you will think in glad astonishment that for all this you | gave up nothing! The joy of Heaven, which has no limit, is increased |
| Tx:16.77 | His giving. You will receive because it is His Will to give. He | gave the holy instant to be given you, and it is impossible that you |
| Tx:16.77 | given you, and it is impossible that you receive it not, because He | gave it. When He willed that His Son be free, His Son was free. In |
| Tx:17.14 | To forgive is merely to remember only the loving thoughts you | gave in the past and those that were given you. All the rest must be |
| Tx:17.56 | all the Sonship and offer it in gladness and thanksgiving to Him Who | gave you your release, and Who would extend it through you. |
| Tx:17.79 | relationship, you became givers of peace as surely as your Father | gave peace to you. For the goal of peace cannot be accepted apart |
| Tx:18.21 | He has given you. And think not that He has forgotten you to whom He | gave the gift. He uses everyone who calls on Him as means for the |
| Tx:18.29 | is your need for salvation. Would I not give you what you | gave to me? For when you joined each other, you answered me. |
| Tx:18.45 | love is fear, not happiness. Let Him fulfill the function that He | gave to your relationship by accepting it for you, and nothing will |
| Tx:19.7 | Here then is healing needed. And it is here that healing is. For God | gave healing not apart from sickness, nor established remedy where |
| Tx:19.35 | smiled upon. Your perception was healed in the holy instant Heaven | gave you. Forget what you have seen and raise your eyes in faith to |
| Tx:19.61 | join in holy communion and be at peace. Such is the message that I | gave them for you. |
| Tx:19.68 | Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the peace He | gave instead, without the limits which would hold its extension back |
| Tx:19.87 | in time but nourished in eternity. Behold this infant to whom you | gave a resting-place by your forgiveness of each other, and see in it |
| Tx:19.106 | and not separate in death. Behold the gift of freedom that I | gave the Holy Spirit for both of you. And be you free together, as |
| Tx:19.106 | same gift. And giving it, receive it of Him in return for what you | gave. He leadeth you and me together that we might meet here in this |
| Tx:20.11 | the undoing of illusion that God Himself could give. For what God | gave the Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son of God looks unto |
| Tx:20.15 | lamp is lit in both of you for one another. And by the hands that | gave it to each other shall both of you be led past fear to love. |
| Tx:20.24 | as if it were the truth? The world you look on is the answer that it | gave you, and you have given it power to adjust the world to make its |
| Tx:20.38 | you give, and through your not forgetting this will you remember Who | gave the gifts to Him to give to you. |
| Tx:20.70 | The Holy Spirit guarantees that what God willed and | gave you shall be yours. This is your purpose now, and the vision |
| Tx:20.74 | you accept this simple fact and take unto yourself the power you | gave them, you are released from them. One thing is sure— |
| Tx:20.77 | Think but an instant just on this—you can behold the holiness God | gave His Son. And never need you think that there is something else |
| Tx:21.1 | Projection makes perception. The world you see is what you | gave it, nothing more than that. But though it is no more than that, |
| Tx:21.17 | Suffer, and you decided sin was your goal. Be happy, and you | gave the power of decision to Him Who must decide for God for you. |
| Tx:21.17 | is the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He | gave to you to give yourself. For by this gift is given you the power |
| Tx:21.19 | This witness is insane. You trained it in its testimony, and as it | gave it back to you, you listened and convinced yourself that what it |
| Tx:21.22 | else. This other will, which seems to tell you what must happen, you | gave reality. And what would show you otherwise must therefore seem |
| Tx:21.22 | simply to recognize again the presence of what you thought you | gave away. |
| Tx:21.40 | seeing, they look past it, as do you. The faith and the belief you | gave it belongs beyond. You gave perception and belief and faith from |
| Tx:21.40 | as do you. The faith and the belief you gave it belongs beyond. You | gave perception and belief and faith from mind to body. Let them now |
| Tx:22.26 | What God has given to your holy relationship is there. For what He | gave the Holy Spirit to give to you, He gave. Would you not look upon |
| Tx:22.26 | is there. For what He gave the Holy Spirit to give to you, He | gave. Would you not look upon the savior that has been given you? And |
| Tx:22.26 | you not exchange in gratitude the function of an executioner you | gave him for the one he has in truth? Receive of him what God has |
| Tx:22.36 | can sin? Beyond his errors is his holiness and your salvation. You | gave him not his holiness but tried to see your sins in him to save |
| Tx:23.42 | you attack him. You give him nothing and receive of him but what you | gave. |
| Tx:23.49 | God does not share His function with a body. He | gave the function to create unto His Son because it is His own. It is |
| Tx:23.50 | is like the love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy function God | gave His Son, for your forgiveness of one another is not complete as |
| Tx:24.5 | with the reality of God's creation and with the grandeur which He | gave His Son. What else could justify attack? For who could hate |
| Tx:24.8 | not cut off from one another. What you keep is lost to you. God | gave you both Himself, and to remember this is now the only purpose |
| Tx:24.10 | goals. And would you now defeat the goal of holiness that Heaven | gave it? What perspective can the special have that does not change |
| Tx:24.22 | Give him but what he has, remembering God | gave Himself to both of you in equal love that both might share the |
| Tx:24.22 | has been given him makes you complete, as it does him. God's love | gave you to him and him to you because He gave Himself. What is the |
| Tx:24.22 | as it does him. God's love gave you to him and him to you because He | gave Himself. What is the same as God is one with Him. And only |
| Tx:24.25 | The key you threw away God | gave your brother, whose holy hands would offer it to you when you |
| Tx:24.26 | For it is sure he would receive it wholly the instant that he | gave it so. And thus his secret guilt would disappear, forgiven by |
| Tx:24.32 | but only in the dream. Open your eyes a little; see the savior God | gave to you that you might look on him and give him back his |
| Tx:24.59 | Specialness is the function which you | gave yourself. It stands for you alone, as self-created, |
| Tx:24.63 | the powerful conviction this is you belong to him. Nothing you | gave to specialness but is his due. And nothing due him is not due to |
| Tx:24.66 | itself. Nor will that light go out when it is gone. Its holy purpose | gave it immortality, setting another light in Heaven, where your |
| Tx:24.71 | Such is the travesty on God's creation. For as His Son's creation | gave Him joy and witness to His love and shared His purpose, so does |
| Tx:25.12 | ever be. The only value that the past can hold is that you learn it | gave you no rewards that you would want to keep. For only thus will |
| Tx:25.19 | in him. He is the frame in which your holiness is set, and what God | gave him must be given you. However much he overlooks the masterpiece |
| Tx:25.22 | and not divided in His Will. And you must have one purpose, since He | gave the same to both of you. His Will is brought together as you |
| Tx:25.28 | before are really calls to peace. He will perceive that where he | gave attack is but another altar where he can with equal ease and far |
| Tx:25.40 | him of all the joy he would have found if he fulfilled the role God | gave to him. But think not Heaven is lost to him alone. Nor can it be |
| Tx:25.41 | will be your joy, when he is free to offer you the gift of sight God | gave to him for you! He has no need but this—that you allow him |
| Tx:25.41 | need but this—that you allow him freedom to complete the task God | gave to him. Remembering but this—that what he does you do along |
| Tx:25.45 | by you. Nor does He will that he remain without the function that He | gave to him. Let him no more be lonely, for the lonely ones are those |
| Tx:25.76 | both, since they are equal in the Holy Spirit's sight. Their Father | gave the same inheritance to both. Who would have more or less is not |
| Tx:26.17 | not your Father's Will that you should offer or receive less than He | gave when He created you in perfect love. |
| Tx:26.32 | God | gave His Teacher to replace the one you made, not to conflict with |
| Tx:26.32 | tiny instant time was gone, for that was all it ever was. What God | gave Answer to is answered and is gone. |
| Tx:26.33 | look upon you saw but for an instant, long ago before its unreality | gave way to truth. Not one illusion still remains unanswered in your |
| Tx:26.51 | is true in any way, and all must yield with equal ease to what God | gave as answer to them all. God's Will is One. And any wish that |
| Tx:26.62 | purpose, they derive whatever meaning that they seem to have. God | gave to all illusions that were made another purpose that would |
| Tx:26.62 | whatever form they took. In every miracle all healing lies, for God | gave answer to them all as one. And what is one to Him must be the |
| Tx:26.65 | It is not arrogant to be as He created you or to make use of what He | gave to answer all His Son's mistakes and set him free. But it is |
| Tx:26.65 | and set him free. But it is arrogant to lay aside the power that He | gave and choose a little senseless wish instead of what He wills. The |
| Tx:26.74 | of now, which could not be the cost the Holy Spirit asks for what He | gave without a cost at all. |
| Tx:27.4 | guilt—the witness which you send lest he forget the injuries he | gave from which you swear he never will escape. This sick and sorry |
| Tx:27.12 | purpose, can be given it. You do not know its purpose. You but | gave illusions of a purpose to a thing you made to hide your function |
| Tx:27.12 | without a purpose cannot hide the function that the Holy Spirit | gave. Let, then, its purpose and your function both be reconciled at |
| Tx:27.36 | anything at all, for conflict has no limited effects. Yet if God | gave an answer, there must be a way in which your problems are |
| Tx:27.42 | unheard, and thus the question is preserved intact because it | gave the answer to itself. The holy instant is the interval in which |
| Tx:27.48 | eyes no longer will accuse, but shine in thanks to you who blessing | gave. The holy instant's radiance will light your eyes and give them |
| Tx:27.56 | it is it feels. It does not know. It tells you but the names you | gave it to use when you call forth the witnesses to its reality. You |
| Tx:27.71 | one. The dreaming of the world is but a part of your own dream you | gave away and saw as if it were its start and ending both. Yet was it |
| Tx:27.73 | was his friend.] God willed he waken gently and with joy. And | gave him means to waken without fear. Accept the dream He gave |
| Tx:27.73 | joy. And gave him means to waken without fear. Accept the dream He | gave instead of yours. It is not difficult to [shift] a dream when |
| Tx:27.75 | thoughtfulness to dream about instead of counting up the hurts he | gave. Forgive him his illusions and give thanks to him for all the |
| Tx:27.75 | him his illusions and give thanks to him for all the helpfulness he | gave. And do not brush aside his many gifts because he is not perfect |
| Tx:27.80 | they are, they have no more effects on him because he understands he | gave them their effects by causing them and making them seem real. |
| Tx:27.82 | for laughter, not a cause for fear. Let us return the dream he | gave away unto the dreamer who perceives the dream as separate from |
| Tx:28.2 | perception, is a skill made up by you to take the place of what God | gave in your creation. And like all the things you made, it can be |
| Tx:28.22 | in the dream. He gives himself the consequences which he dreams he | gave his brother. And it is but this the dream has put together and |
| Tx:29.24 | in your creation, so the light in him is brighter still because you | gave your light to him to save him from the dark. And now the light |
| Tx:29.29 | How happy would your dreams become if you were not the one who | gave the “proper” role to every figure which the dream contains. No |
| Tx:29.40 | mind and see another purpose there. Change is the greatest gift God | gave to all that you would make eternal, to ensure that only Heaven |
| Tx:29.41 | is no death because the living share the function their Creator | gave to them. Life's function cannot be to die. It must be life's |
| Tx:29.60 | than God bestowed upon your brother and on you as one with Him? God | gave you all there is. And to be sure you could not lose it, did He |
| Tx:30.34 | himself? God but ensured that you would never lose your will when He | gave you His perfect answer. Hear it now that you may be reminded of |
| Tx:30.37 | But you will not forgive the world until you have forgiven Him Who | gave your will to you. For it is by your will the world is given |
| Tx:31.5 | Learning is an ability you made and | gave yourselves. It was not made to do the Will of God but to uphold |
| Tx:31.16 | you think that it is murder justified at last. You hate the one you | gave the leader's role when you would have it, and you hate as well |
| Tx:31.21 | hears one Voice, He cannot hear a different answer from the one He | gave when God appointed Him His only Son. |
| Tx:31.52 | your brother made of you seems most unlikely. Even if he did, who | gave the face of innocence to you? Is this your contribution? Who is, |
| Tx:31.55 | of the self. And something must have done the learning which | gave rise to them. Nor can this be explained by either view. The main |
| Tx:31.69 | that you should be the sign of evil and of guilt in him. And as you | gave your trust to what is good in him, you gave it to the good in |
| Tx:31.69 | guilt in him. And as you gave your trust to what is good in him, you | gave it to the good in you. |
| Tx:31.95 | will forever be. They will accept the gift I offer them because You | gave it me on their behalf. And as I would but do Your holy Will, so |
| W1:42.6 | God's gifts to me must be mine because He | gave them to me. |
| W1:49.3 | our will with the Will of God. He wants you to hear His Voice. He | gave It to you to be heard. |
| W1:62.3 | guilt and pain. It will restore the invulnerability and power God | gave His Son to your awareness. |
| W1:65.1 | way in which you can say and mean, “My only function is the one God | gave me.” This is the only way in which you can find peace of mind. |
| W1:65.13 | My only function is the one God | gave me. I want no other and I have no other. |
| W1:66.4 | not only is there a very real connection between the function God | gave you and your happiness, but that they are actually identical. |
| W1:66.4 | identical. God gives you only happiness. Therefore the function He | gave you must be happiness, even if it appears to be different. |
| W1:66.10 | ego which you have made to replace Him. Which is true? Unless God | gave your function to you, it must be the gift of the ego. Does the |
| W1:72.7 | deprived of what the body offers. Take the little you can get. God | gave you nothing. The body is your only savior. It is the death of |
| W1:73.2 | or co-makers in picturing the world you see. The wishes of the ego | gave rise to it, and the ego's need for grievances, which are |
| W1:78.7 | caused you, his neglect, and all the little and the larger hurts he | gave. We will regard his body with its flaws and better points as |
| W1:78.11 | You have allowed the Holy Spirit to express through him the role God | gave Him that you might be saved. God thanks you for these quiet |
| W1:83.2 | [65] My only function is the one God | gave me. I have no function but the one God gave me. This recognition |
| W1:83.2 | function is the one God gave me. I have no function but the one God | gave me. This recognition releases me from all conflict because it |
| W1:83.2 | must disappear as I acknowledge that my only function is the one God | gave me. |
| W1:83.4 | my function. This does not give me a function other than the one God | gave me. Let me not use this to justify a function God did not give |
| W1:97.7 | it is returned to you, it will surpass in might the little gift you | gave as much as does the radiance of the sun outshine the tiny gleam |
| W1:99.15 | unity, and peace. You cannot lose the gifts your Father | gave. You do not want to be another self. You have no function that |
| W1:107.10 | and blood and bone but were created by the self-same thought which | gave the gift of life to Him as well. He is your brother and so like |
| W1:108.12 | slowly, and then pause a while, expecting to receive the gift you | gave, and it will come to you in the amount in which you gave it. You |
| W1:108.12 | gift you gave, and it will come to you in the amount in which you | gave it. You will find you have exact return, for this is what you |
| W1:109.4 | rest in God. They will not hear another voice but yours because you | gave your voice to God and now you rest in Him and let Him speak |
| W1:R3.4 | practice periods to be replacements for your litanies to them. They | gave you nothing. But your practicing can offer everything to you. |
| W1:R3.6 | will use them wisely, being helped in its decisions by the One Who | gave the thoughts to you. What can you trust but what is in your |
| W1:R3.6 | lean back in quiet faith and let the mind employ the thoughts you | gave as they were given you for it to use. |
| W1:R3.14 | not forget your Father's need of you as you review these thoughts He | gave to you. |
| W1:115.3 | essential to the plan of God for the salvation of the world. For He | gave me His plan that I might save the world. |
| W1:117.3 | Love is my heritage and with it joy. These are the gifts my Father | gave to me. I would accept all that is mine in truth. |
| W1:121.12 | and let your “enemy” and friend unite in blessing you with what you | gave. Now are you one with them and they with you. Now have you been |
| W1:123.8 | hourly to think of Him and give Him thanks for everything He | gave His Son that he might rise above the world remembering his |
| W1:124.3 | which we were created, smiles on us and offers us the happiness we | gave. Today we will not doubt His Love for us nor question His |
| W1:124.7 | and we now would give, for we would keep the gifts our Father | gave. Today we would experience ourselves at one with Him, so that |
| W1:124.10 | waiting to be found. You will remember then the thought to which you | gave this half an hour, thankfully aware no time was ever better |
| W1:128.5 | values we have given to the world. We leave it free of purposes we | gave its aspects and its phases and its dreams. We hold it |
| W1:132.9 | you ever thought it was by merely changing all the thoughts that | gave it these appearances. The sick are healed as you let go all |
| W1:135.7 | to serve you thus except your own belief? It is your mind which | gave the body all the functions that you see in it and set its value |
| W1:136.20 | removes the limits you had placed upon the body by the purposes you | gave to it. As these are laid aside, the strength the body has will |
| W1:138.7 | make. Such is its holy purpose, now transformed from the intent you | gave it, that it be a means for demonstrating hell is real, hope |
| W1:139.12 | We have not lost the knowledge that God | gave to us when He created us like Him. We can remember it for |
| W1:R4.4 | are and what your Father is. It is this thought by which the Father | gave creation to the Son, establishing the Son as co-creator with |
| W1:153.17 | hour that is yet to come, while thanking Him for all the gifts He | gave us in the one gone by. |
| W1:158.2 | It is not this knowledge which you give, for that is what creation | gave. All this cannot be learned. What, then, are you to learn to |
| W1:161.3 | He may employ them for a purpose which is different from the one we | gave to them. Yet He can use but what we made to teach us from a |
| W1:162.1 | as you advance. These words are sacred, for they are the words God | gave in answer to the world you made. By them it disappears, and all |
| W1:163.7 | Their stronger will could triumph over His, and so eternal life | gave way to death. And with the Father died the Son as well. |
| W1:166.10 | to His Will. There was a need He did not understand, to which He | gave an Answer. That is all. And you who have this Answer given you |
| W1:168.6 | He loves His Son. To Him we pray today, returning but the words He | gave to us through His Own Voice, His Word, His Love: |
| W1:169.7 | accomplished and complete. He recognized all that time holds and | gave it to all minds that each one might determine from a point where |
| W1:183.4 | names of all the gods you value. They have lost the name of god you | gave them. They become anonymous and valueless to you, although |
| W1:183.9 | with this, and see God's Name replace the thousand little names you | gave your thoughts, not realizing that there is One Name for all |
| W1:183.11 | Thoughts become his own. He makes his claim to all his Father | gave, is giving still, and will forever give. He calls on Him to let |
| W1:184.3 | kept apart and holding bits of mind as separate awarenesses? You | gave these names to them, establishing perception as you wished to |
| W1:184.12 | closed and separation healed. The Name of God is the inheritance He | gave to those who chose the teaching of the world to take the place |
| W1:184.13 | must accept One Name for all reality, and realize the many names you | gave its aspects have distorted what you see but have not interfered |
| W1:198.1 | free, for freedom is your gift, and you can now receive the gift you | gave. |
| W2:224.1 | give it light. It lights the world as well. It is the gift my Father | gave me, the one as well I give the world. There is no gift but this |
| W2:230.1 | my Self. How merciful is God my Father, that when He created me He | gave me peace forever. Now I ask but to be what I am. And can this be |
| W2:230.2 | Father, I seek the peace You | gave as mine in my creation. What was given then must be here now, |
| W2:230.2 | I am as You created me. I need but call on You to find the peace You | gave. It is Your will that gave it to Your Son. |
| W2:230.2 | but call on You to find the peace You gave. It is Your will that | gave it to Your Son. |
| W2:239.1 | false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the gifts our Father | gave us. Can we see in those with whom He shares His glory any trace |
| W2:WIW.1 | not left its source. It will remain no longer than the thought which | gave it birth is cherished. When the thought of separation has been |
| W2:247.2 | today. My brothers are Your Sons. Your Fatherhood created them and | gave them all to me as part of You and my own Self as well. Today I |
| W2:WIS.1 | sees illusions where the truth should be and where it really is. Sin | gave the body eyes, for what is there the sinless would behold? What |
| W2:255.2 | this day with You. Your Son has not forgotten You. The peace You | gave him still is in his mind, and it is there I choose to spend |
| W2:263.1 | Mind created all that is; Your Spirit entered into it; Your Love | gave life to it. And would I look upon what You created as if it |
| W2:266.1 | Father, You | gave me all Your Sons to be my saviors and my counselors in sight— |
| W2:269.1 | them. It is given me to find a new perception through the Guide You | gave to me and through His lessons to surpass perception and return |
| W2:273.2 | have me keep? I cannot lose Your gifts to me. And so the peace You | gave Your Son is with me still, in quietness and in my own eternal |
| W2:276.1 | purpose we have come. And yet we need but to acknowledge Him Who | gave His Word to us in our creation, to remember Him and so recall |
| W2:279.2 | the Son Whom He created as His own. Would You withhold the gifts You | gave to me? |
| W2:310.2 | world joins with us in our song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who | gave salvation to us, and Who set us free. We are restored to peace |
| W2:316.2 | Your gifts today. I do not recognize them. Yet I trust that You Who | gave them will provide the means by which I can behold them, see |
| W2:320.1 | on his strength, his peace, his joy, or any attributes his Father | gave in his creation. What he wills with his Creator and Redeemer |
| W2:322.2 | except in dreams. As You created me, I can give up nothing You | gave me. What You did not give has no reality. What loss can I |

| Tx:3.30 | reason we have dealt so little with cognition is because you must | get your perceptions straightened out before you can know anything. |
| Tx:4.50 | and this kind of wanting is wholly without the ego's “drive to | get.” There is a kind of experience which is so different from |
| Tx:6.53 | you can develop your abilities to the point where they can | get you out of it. You have a Guide to how to develop them, but you |
| Tx:6.66 | together in temporary allegiance but always for what each one can | get separately. The Holy Spirit communicates only what each one can |
| Tx:7.85 | it cannot be fully shared. Any attempt to keep part of it and | get rid of another part does not really mean anything. Remember that |
| Tx:7.85 | limited by his confusion. A second fallacy is the idea that you can | get rid of something you do not want by giving it away. Giving it is |
| Tx:8.5 | must be a sign of learning failure since it means that you did not | get what you want. The curriculum of the Atonement is the opposite of |
| Tx:8.53 | You are accepting it simply by the belief that attack can | get you something you want. If you did not believe this, the idea of |

| Tx:8.117 | By giving you receive. But to receive is to accept, not to | get. It is impossible not to have, but it is possible not to know you |
| Tx:9.25 | always attempts to gain some support from the situation. Seeking to | get something for himself, the unhealed healer does not know how to |
| Tx:9.73 | decision. You make it only because you still believe that it can | get you something you want. It follows, then, that you want something |
| Tx:10.82 | You believe in a world that takes, because you believe that you can | get by taking. And by that perception, you have lost sight of the |
| Tx:11.31 | that your hatred is in your mind and not outside it before you can | get rid of it and why you must get rid of it before you can perceive |
| Tx:11.31 | and not outside it before you can get rid of it and why you must | get rid of it before you can perceive the world as it really is. |
| Tx:12.1 | The ultimate purpose of projection, as the ego uses it, is always to | get rid of guilt. Yet, characteristically, the ego attempts to get |
| Tx:12.1 | to get rid of guilt. Yet, characteristically, the ego attempts to | get rid of guilt from its viewpoint only, for much as the ego wants |
| Tx:12.2 | strange a solution the ego's arrangement is. You project guilt to | get rid of it, but you are actually merely concealing it. You do |
| Tx:12.68 | And at its altar it demands you lay all of the things it bids you | get, leaving you no joy in them. |

| Tx:15.65 | ego embarks is special. The ego establishes relationships only to | get something. And it would keep the giver bound to itself through |
| Tx:15.66 | but it is its purpose. For the ego really believes that it can | get and keep by making guilty. This is its one attraction; an |
| Tx:15.96 | sacrifice, as you are convinced, someone must pay and someone must | get. And the only question which remains to be decided is how much is |
| Tx:16.49 | how much value can he place upon a self that he would give away to | get a better one? |
| Tx:17.19 | even the one with whom the union was sought. For it was formed to | get him out of it and join with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” |
| Tx:18.50 | What else is there to give? The belief that you could give and | get something else, something outside yourself, has cost you the |
| Tx:19.40 | The first obstacle that peace must flow across is your desire to | get rid of it. For it cannot extend unless you keep it. You are the |

| Tx:27.39 | which you should choose. The others are not true. What can the body | get that you would want the most of all? It is your servant and your |

| Tx:30.14 | one in which you get your answer to your question. And you will not | get it, for it would destroy the day by robbing you of what you |

| Tx:15.27 | and in perfect safety in your minds, untouched by every little | gift the world of littleness would offer you. But for this, you |
| Tx:15.29 | appointed for Himself. It is beyond all your littleness to give the | gift of God, but not beyond you. For God would give Himself through |
| Tx:15.57 | in all your brothers as it is in you, or it would be a limited | gift to you. In the holy instant, we share our faith in God's Son |
| Tx:15.82 | the Sonship to you to ensure your perfect creation. This was His | gift, for as He withheld Himself not from you, He withheld not His |
| Tx:15.88 | long as you would not release him from it, and you have denied his | gift to you. His body cannot give it. And seek it not through yours. |
| Tx:15.89 | without the limits the ego would impose on them can offer you the | gift of freedom. |
| Tx:15.92 | teach you, and let me celebrate your birth through Him. The only | gift I can accept of you is the gift I gave to you. Release me as I |
| Tx:15.92 | your birth through Him. The only gift I can accept of you is the | gift I gave to you. Release me as I will your release. The time of |
| Tx:15.93 | of God, and his unlimited power is thus restored to him. What other | gift can you offer me, when only this I will to offer you? And to see |
| Tx:15.93 | you? And to see me is to see me in everyone and offer everyone the | gift you offer me. I am as incapable of receiving sacrifice as God |
| Tx:15.93 | giving. And by this limitation, you have limited acceptance of the | gift I offer you. |
| Tx:15.94 | for you. For in our union, you will accept all of our brothers. The | gift of union is the only gift that I was born to give. Give it to |
| Tx:15.94 | you will accept all of our brothers. The gift of union is the only | gift that I was born to give. Give it to me, that you may have it. |
| Tx:15.94 | you may have it. The time of Christ is the time appointed for the | gift of freedom, offered to everyone. And by your acceptance of it, |
| Tx:16.13 | it to Him to use as He knows how, His natural perception of your | gift enables Him to understand it and you to use His understanding on |
| Tx:16.44 | it must be. The special love relationship is the ego's most boasted | gift, and one which has the most appeal to those unwilling to |
| Tx:17.30 | protect the separation from the Holy Spirit was in response to the | gift with which God blessed it and by His blessing enabled it to be |
| Tx:17.33 | bring it to you. Every defense operates by giving gifts, and the | gift is always a miniature of the thought system the defense |
| Tx:17.35 | Look at the picture. Do not let the frame distract you. This | gift is given you for your damnation, and if you take it, you will |
| Tx:17.35 | you see no conflict. Yet the frame is only the wrapping for the | gift of conflict. The frame is not the gift. Be not deceived by the |
| Tx:17.35 | is only the wrapping for the gift of conflict. The frame is not the | gift. Be not deceived by the most superficial aspects of this thought |
| Tx:17.35 | the whole, complete in every aspect. Death lies in this glittering | gift. Let not your gaze dwell on the hypnotic gleaming of the frame. |
| Tx:17.36 | defense, but you do need defense against your own acceptance of the | gift of death. When you who are truth accept an idea so dangerous to |
| Tx:17.37 | Heaven. It is a picture, too, set in a frame. Yet if you accept this | gift, you will not see the frame at all because the gift can only be |
| Tx:17.37 | you accept this gift, you will not see the frame at all because the | gift can only be accepted through your willingness to focus all your |
| Tx:17.38 | wholly without meaning. Remember that it is the picture that is the | gift. And only on this basis are you really free to choose. Look at |
| Tx:17.76 | not want to make a holy instant of every situation? For such is the | gift of faith, freely given wherever faithlessness is laid aside |
| Tx:18.10 | brothers. Let us join in Him in peace and gratitude and accept His | gift as our most holy and perfect reality, which we share in Him. |
| Tx:18.21 | you. And think not that He has forgotten you to whom He gave the | gift. He uses everyone who calls on Him as means for the salvation of |
| Tx:18.27 | must disappear before you now. Be tempted not to snatch away the | gift of faith you offered to each other. You will succeed only in |
| Tx:18.27 | to each other. You will succeed only in frightening yourselves. The | gift is given forever, for God Himself received it. You cannot take |
| Tx:19.10 | for yourself and would therefore share it. By faith you offer the | gift of freedom from the past, which you received. You do not use |
| Tx:19.12 | Faith is the | gift of God, through Him Whom God has given you. Faithlessness looks |
| Tx:19.12 | perception and is the sign you share it with Him. Faith is a | gift you offer to the Son of God through Him, and wholly acceptable |
| Tx:19.38 | with Him? For it is He Who offered your relationship the | gift of holiness, without which it would have been forever impossible |
| Tx:19.102 | Spirit is in him. Would you hold his sins against him or accept his | gift to you? Is this giver of salvation your friend or enemy? Choose |
| Tx:19.105 | him. And offer thanks to God that he is holy and has been given the | gift of holiness for you. Join him in gladness and remove all trace |
| Tx:19.106 | and hope and mercy are yours to give. Into the hands that give the | gift is given. Look on your brother, and see in him the gift of God |
| Tx:19.106 | give the gift is given. Look on your brother, and see in him the | gift of God you would receive. It is almost Easter, the time of |
| Tx:19.106 | rise as one in resurrection and not separate in death. Behold the | gift of freedom that I gave the Holy Spirit for both of you. And be |
| Tx:19.106 | And be you free together, as you offer to the Holy Spirit this same | gift. And giving it, receive it of Him in return for what you gave. |
| Tx:19.107 | Free your brother here, as I freed you. Give him the self-same | gift, nor look upon him with condemnation of any kind. See him as |
| Tx:19.108 | seek, the reason for the journey from its beginning. Heaven is the | gift you owe each other, the debt of gratitude you offer to the Son |
| Tx:19.109 | Think carefully how you would look upon the giver of this | gift, for as you look on him, so will the gift itself appear to be. |
| Tx:19.109 | upon the giver of this gift, for as you look on him, so will the | gift itself appear to be. As he is seen as either the giver of guilt |
| Tx:20.2 | purity of the Son of God and not his sins. Offer each other the | gift of lilies, not the crown of thorns; the gift of love and not the |
| Tx:20.2 | Offer each other the gift of lilies, not the crown of thorns; the | gift of love and not the “gift” of fear. You stand beside each other, |
| Tx:20.2 | offering the lilies to replace them. This Easter, I would have the | gift of your forgiveness offered by you to me and returned by me to |
| Tx:20.3 | his redemption is so near. But let the whiteness of your shining | gift of lilies speed him on his way to resurrection. |
| Tx:20.4 | snow white petals of the lilies you have received and given as your | gift, you will behold each other's face and recognize it. I was a |
| Tx:20.4 | a stranger and you took me in, not knowing who I was. Yet for your | gift of lilies you will know. In your forgiveness of this stranger, |
| Tx:20.5 | own interpretation of its value by his acceptance. Yet still the | gift proclaims his worthlessness to you, as his acceptance and |
| Tx:20.6 | only the mind decides on what it would receive and give. And every | gift it offers depends on what it wants. It will adorn its chosen |
| Tx:20.7 | Each | gift is an evaluation of the receiver and the giver. No one but sees |
| Tx:20.7 | value that you lay upon your brother and on yourself. Here is your | gift to both; your judgment on the Son of God for what he is. Forget |
| Tx:20.7 | of God for what he is. Forget not that it is your savior to whom the | gift is offered. Offer him thorns and you are crucified. Offer him |
| Tx:20.10 | upon each other. You have forgiven me. And yet I cannot use your | gift of lilies while you see them not. Nor can you use what I have |
| Tx:20.10 | have given unless you share it. The Holy Spirit's vision is no idle | gift, no plaything to be tossed about a while and laid aside. Listen |
| Tx:20.14 | from the cold chill of fear and withering blight of sin alike. Your | gift has saved him from the thorns and nails, and his strong arm is |
| Tx:20.24 | he held out to you? Did you recognize each other as the eternal | gift of God to you? Did you see the holiness that shone in both of |
| Tx:20.26 | would I unite with you, my friends, my brothers, and my Self. Your | gift unto each other has given me the certainty our union will be |
| Tx:20.38 | of God together. You give to one another for everyone, and in your | gift is everyone made glad. Forget not Who has given you the gifts |
| Tx:20.40 | by his Father, and you will recognize it as you receive his Father's | gift through him. What is in him will shine so brightly in your |
| Tx:20.43 | Can you evaluate the giver of a | gift like this? Would you exchange this gift for any other? This gift |
| Tx:20.43 | you evaluate the giver of a gift like this? Would you exchange this | gift for any other? This gift returns the laws of God to your |
| Tx:20.43 | a gift like this? Would you exchange this gift for any other? This | gift returns the laws of God to your remembrance. And merely by |
| Tx:20.43 | held you prisoner to pain and death must be forgotten. This is no | gift your brother's body offers you. The veil that hides the gift |
| Tx:20.43 | is no gift your brother's body offers you. The veil that hides the | gift hides him as well. He is the gift, and yet he knows it not. No |
| Tx:20.43 | you. The veil that hides the gift hides him as well. He is the | gift, and yet he knows it not. No more do you. And yet, have faith |
| Tx:20.43 | it not. No more do you. And yet, have faith that He Who sees the | gift in both of you will offer and receive it for you both. And |
| Tx:20.77 | brooks that never waste away, who need persuade you to accept the | gift of vision? And after vision, who is there who could refuse what |
| Tx:21.13 | need to have your whole relationship transformed to joy; the little | gift you offer to the Holy Spirit for which He gives you everything; |
| Tx:21.17 | decision to Him Who must decide for God for you. This is the little | gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to |
| Tx:21.17 | Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by this | gift is given you the power to release your savior that he may give |
| Tx:21.19 | on which your “seeing” rests. This was not given you. This was your | gift to you and to your brother. Be willing, then, to have it taken |
| Tx:21.37 | you seek to limit Him, you will hate Him because you are afraid. The | gift that He has given you is more than anything that stands this |
| Tx:21.66 | That you are joined is your salvation—the | gift of Heaven, not the gift of fear. Does Heaven seem to be a burden |
| Tx:21.66 | That you are joined is your salvation—the gift of Heaven, not the | gift of fear. Does Heaven seem to be a burden to you? In madness, |
| Tx:22.55 | lays a part of Heaven in its place. How blessed are you who let this | gift be given! Each part of Heaven that you bring is given you. And |
| Tx:22.56 | vision that he brings to others? And who would fail to recognize a | gift he let be laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle service |
| Tx:22.59 | join to it all the power that God has given Him to make each little | gift of love a source of healing for everyone. Each little gift you |
| Tx:22.59 | little gift of love a source of healing for everyone. Each little | gift you offer to the other lights up the world. Be not concerned |
| Tx:22.65 | impossible? Do not attempt to keep a little of the ego with this | gift. For it was given you to be used and not obscured. What teaches |
| Tx:23.30 | makes your vengeance justified. Behold, unveiled, the ego's secret | gift, torn from your brother's body, hidden there in malice and in |
| Tx:23.30 | body, hidden there in malice and in hatred for the one to whom the | gift belongs. He would deprive you of the secret ingredient which |
| Tx:23.42 | speaks through you to your brother? The wrapping does not make the | gift you give. An empty box, however beautiful and gently given, |
| Tx:24.3 | Love is extension. To withhold the smallest | gift is not to know love's purpose. Love offers everything forever. |
| Tx:24.19 | Not one attack you thought you made on him has taken from him the | gift that God would have him give to you. His need to give it is as |
| Tx:24.23 | Specialness is the seal of treachery upon the | gift of love. Whatever serves its purpose must be given to kill. No |
| Tx:24.23 | gift of love. Whatever serves its purpose must be given to kill. No | gift that bears its seal but offers treachery to giver and receiver. |
| Tx:24.37 | it. Yet what comfort has ever been in them that you would keep the | gift your Father asks from Him and give it there instead? Given to |
| Tx:24.46 | may save all living things from death, receiving from each one the | gift of life that your forgiveness offers to your Self. The sight of |
| Tx:24.66 | setting another light in Heaven, where your creations recognize a | gift from you, a sign that you have not forgotten them. |
| Tx:25.20 | joins in His praise, to share His joy. This brother is His perfect | gift to you. And He is glad and thankful when you thank His perfect |
| Tx:25.21 | For what you give is His, and giving it you learn to understand His | gift to you. And give the Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father |
| Tx:25.41 | it! And how great will be your joy, when he is free to offer you the | gift of sight God gave to him for you! He has no need but this—that |
| Tx:25.44 | to see calls down the grace of God upon your eyes and brings the | gift of light that makes sight possible. |
| Tx:25.47 | faithfulness to one perceived as other than himself, he learns the | gift was given to himself, and so they must be one. Forgiveness is |
| Tx:25.79 | To give reluctantly is not to gain the | gift because you are reluctant to accept it. It is saved for you |
| Tx:25.79 | they be received. Nor is the treasure less as it is given out. Each | gift [received] but adds to the supply. For God is fair. He does not |
| Tx:25.79 | not fight against His Son's reluctance to perceive salvation as a | gift from Him. Yet would His justice not be satisfied until it is |
| Tx:25.83 | to the wholly innocent? A miracle is justice. It is not a special | gift to some to be withheld from others as less worthy, more |
| Tx:25.84 | more unfair than he has sought to be. If miracles, the Holy Spirit's | gift, were given specially to an elect and special group and kept |
| Tx:25.84 | He bears no witness to. And everyone is equally entitled to His | gift of healing and deliverance and peace. To give a problem to the |
| Tx:26.9 | opened that he may come forth to shine on you and give you back the | gift of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:26.28 | gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God Himself comes to receive each | gift that brings him nearer to his home. Not one is lost, and none is |
| Tx:26.65 | and choose a little senseless wish instead of what He wills. The | gift of God to you is limitless. There is no circumstance it cannot |
| Tx:26.67 | been true be recognized by those who know it not. And by this little | gift of truth but let to be itself—the Son of God allowed to be |
| Tx:26.69 | interval you think lies in between the giving and receiving of the | gift seems to be one in which you sacrifice and suffer loss. You see |
| Tx:26.81 | Heaven is grateful for this | gift of what has been withheld so long. For They have come to gather |
| Tx:27.19 | How just are miracles! For they bestow an equal | gift of full deliverance from guilt upon your brother and yourself. |
| Tx:27.53 | parts. God thanks you for your healing, for He knows it is a | gift of love unto His Son, and therefore is it given unto Him. |
| Tx:28.16 | Thus, the Son gives fatherhood to his Creator and receives the | gift that he has given Him. It is because he is God's Son that he |
| Tx:29.23 | you forgive is given power to forgive you your illusions. By your | gift of freedom is it given unto you. Make way for love, which you |
| Tx:29.34 | There is no | gift the Father asks of you but that you see in all creation but the |
| Tx:29.34 | of you but that you see in all creation but the shining glory of His | gift to you. Behold His Son, His perfect gift in whom his Father |
| Tx:29.34 | the shining glory of His gift to you. Behold His Son, His perfect | gift in whom his Father shines forever and to whom is all creation |
| Tx:29.40 | your mind and see another purpose there. Change is the greatest | gift God gave to all that you would make eternal, to ensure that only |
| Tx:29.56 | power that it may be feared. Its life and power are its believer's | gift, and this is what the miracle restores to what has life and |
| Tx:29.56 | what the miracle restores to what has life and power worthy of the | gift of Heaven and eternal peace. The miracle does not restore the |
| Tx:29.59 | them and still attempts to seek for one that yet might offer him a | gift reality does not contain. Each worshiper of idols harbors hope |
| Tx:30.39 | idol. It is not your will to have one. It will not bestow on you the | gift you seek. When you decide upon the form of what you want, you |
| Tx:30.72 | is quite real and fully justified. While you regard it as a | gift unwarranted, it must uphold the guilt you would “forgive.” |
| Tx:31.71 | concept of yourself because it was not made for you alone. Born as a | gift for someone not perceived to be yourself, it has been given you. |
| Tx:31.72 | glad contrast offered you. Hold out your hand that you may have the | gift of kind forgiveness which you offer one whose need for it is |
| Tx:31.93 | Deny me not the little | gift I ask when in exchange I lay before your feet the peace of God |
| Tx:31.93 | everyone you see, for otherwise you will behold it not. To give this | gift is how to make it yours. And God ordained in loving kindness |
| Tx:31.94 | and find so many chances to perceive another situation where God's | gift can once again be recognized as ours! And thus will all the |
| Tx:31.95 | are sure of what they are and will forever be. They will accept the | gift I offer them because You gave it me on their behalf. And as I |
| W1:42.1 | is His strength, not your own, that gives you power. And it is His | gift to you, rather than your own, which offers vision to you. |
| W1:58.5 | I am unafraid, everyone must share in my understanding, which is the | gift of God to me and to the world. |
| W1:59.3 | [42] God is my strength. Vision is His | gift. Let me not look to my own eyes to see today. Let me be willing |
| W1:59.3 | seeing for the vision that is given by God. Christ's vision is His | gift, and He has given it to me. Let me call upon this gift today, so |
| W1:59.3 | vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. Let me call upon this | gift today, so that this day may help me to understand eternity. |
| W1:62.2 | yourself and the world are one. That is why all forgiveness is a | gift to yourself. Your goal is to find out who you are, having denied |
| W1:66.10 | Which is true? Unless God gave your function to you, it must be the | gift of the ego. Does the ego really have gifts to give, being itself |
| W1:75.9 | to vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit never fails to give the | gift of sight to the forgiving. Believe He will not fail you now. You |
| W1:92.10 | brought unto your Self. Its strength will be the light in which the | gift of sight is given you. Leave, then, the dark a little while |
| W1:96.17 | And all of it is given everyone who asks for it and will accept the | gift. Think, then, how much is given unto you to give this day, that |
| W1:97.6 | He will not overlook one open mind that will accept the healing | gift they bring, and He will lay them everywhere He knows they will |
| W1:97.7 | Thus will your | gift to Him be multiplied a thousand-fold and tens of thousands more. |
| W1:97.7 | And when it is returned to you, it will surpass in might the little | gift you gave as much as does the radiance of the sun outshine the |
| W1:97.10 | Expressed through you, the Holy Spirit will accept this | gift which you received of Him, increase its power, and give it back |
| W1:98.7 | Each hour today give Him your tiny | gift of but five minutes. He will give the words you use in |
| W1:105.1 | gifts the world can give, in which the giver loses as he gives the | gift; the taker is the richer by his loss. These are not gifts, but |
| W1:105.2 | The truly given | gift entails no loss. It is impossible that one can gain because |
| W1:105.2 | because another loses. This implies a limit and an insufficiency. No | gift is given thus. Such “gifts” are but a bid for a more valuable |
| W1:105.2 | of debt to be repaid with more than was received by him who took the | gift. |
| W1:105.4 | peace and joy, and you will learn a different way of looking at a | gift. God's gifts will never lessen when they are given away. They |
| W1:105.4 | As Heaven's peace and joy intensify when you accept them as God's | gift to you, so does the joy of your Creator grow when you accept His |
| W1:105.6 | as well. He cannot give through loss. No more can you. Receive His | gift of joy and peace today, and He will thank you for your gift to |
| W1:105.6 | His gift of joy and peace today, and He will thank you for your | gift to Him. |
| W1:105.9 | that would prevent success today. Now are you ready to accept the | gift of peace and joy which God has given you. Now are you ready to |
| W1:105.12 | what He wills. And if a brother seems to tempt you to deny God's | gift to him, see it as but another chance to let yourself receive the |
| W1:107.6 | When truth has come, it harbors in its wings the | gift of perfect constancy and love which does not falter in the face |
| W1:107.6 | the face of pain but looks beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the | gift of healing, for the truth needs no defense, and therefore no |
| W1:107.10 | and bone but were created by the self-same thought which gave the | gift of life to Him as well. He is your brother and so like to you |
| W1:107.14 | goes with you will carry to the world. They will increase with every | gift you give of five small minutes, and the errors that surround the |
| W1:108.12 | Say each one slowly, and then pause a while, expecting to receive the | gift you gave, and it will come to you in the amount in which you |
| W1:111.3 | light, and light and strength are one. I see through strength, the | gift of God to me. My weakness is the dark His gift dispels by giving |
| W1:111.3 | through strength, the gift of God to me. My weakness is the dark His | gift dispels by giving me His strength to take its place. |
| W1:122.7 | away in aimless wandering again. Accept salvation now. It is the | gift of God and not the world. The world can give no gifts of any |
| W1:124.3 | What we receive is our eternal | gift to those who follow after and to those who went before or stayed |
| W1:124.11 | the loveliness you look on is your own. Count this half hour as your | gift to God, in certainty that His return will be a sense of love you |
| W1:126.3 | your charitable tolerance, which you bestow on one unworthy of the | gift because his sins have lowered him beneath a true equality with |
| W1:126.3 | with you. He has no claim on your forgiveness. It holds out a | gift to him but hardly to yourself. |
| W1:126.4 | basically unsound—a charitable whim, benevolent yet undeserved; a | gift bestowed at times, at other times withheld. Unmerited, |
| W1:126.4 | are gracious unto him by giving him what he does not deserve, the | gift is no more yours than was his sin. |
| W1:126.7 | Not having given Him the | gift He asks of you, you cannot recognize His gifts and think He has |
| W1:126.7 | and think He has not given them to you. Yet would He ask you for a | gift unless it was for you? Could He be satisfied with empty gestures |
| W1:126.7 | such petty gifts as worthy of His Son? Salvation is a better | gift than this, and true forgiveness, as the means by which it is |
| W1:127.7 | placed upon its meager offerings and senseless gifts, and let the | gift of God replace them all. |
| W1:132.8 | But healing is the | gift of those who are prepared to learn there is no world and can |
| W1:134.1 | as something which entails an unfair sacrifice of righteous wrath, a | gift unjustified and undeserved, and a complete denial of the truth. |
| W1:134.9 | forgiveness opens up to you. For if one brother has received this | gift of you, the door is open to yourself. There is a very simple way |
| W1:137.10 | are never healed alone. And legions upon legions will receive the | gift which you receive when you are healed. |
| W1:137.13 | of God. Is not a minute of the hour worth the giving to receive a | gift like this? Is not a little time a small expense to offer for the |
| W1:137.13 | like this? Is not a little time a small expense to offer for the | gift of everything? |
| W1:137.14 | Yet must we be prepared for such a | gift. And so we will begin the day with this and give ten minutes to |
| W1:R4.10 | His Voice. Let each idea that you review that day give you the | gift which He has laid in it for you to have of Him. And we will use |
| W1:151.16 | Such is your Eastertide. And so you lay the | gift of snow-white lilies on the world, replacing witnesses to sin |
| W1:152.2 | inclusive to be true. Yet can truth have exceptions? If you have the | gift of everything, can loss be real? Can pain be part of peace, or |
| W1:152.9 | and its eternal wholeness—all-encompassing, God's perfect | gift to His beloved Son. |
| W1:154.12 | a thousand more but will not know that God Himself has left no | gift beyond what you already have nor has denied the tiniest of |
| W1:156.4 | gratitude and gladness at your feet. The scent of flowers is their | gift to you. The waves bow down before you, and the trees extend |
| W1:158.5 | It revealed itself to him at its appointed time. But vision is his | gift. This he can give directly, for Christ's knowledge is not lost |
| W1:158.11 | revelation comes, for that is not of time. Yet time has still one | gift to give in which true knowledge is reflected in a way so |
| W1:159.6 | This is the Holy Spirit's single | gift—the treasure house to which you can appeal with perfect |
| W1:159.7 | one is stranger to him. No one asks for anything of him except the | gift of his acceptance of his welcoming. |
| W1:159.10 | the store of miracles set out for you to give. Are you not worth the | gift when God appointed it be given you? Judge not God's Son, but |
| W1:159.10 | Christ has dreamed the dream of a forgiven world. It is His | gift whereby a sweet transition can be made from death to life, from |
| W1:160.10 | denies his brother is denying Him and thus refusing to accept the | gift of sight by which his Self is clearly recognized, his home |
| W1:164.7 | judgment made beyond the world. Our practicing today becomes our | gift of thankfulness for our release from blindness and from misery. |
| W1:164.9 | all suffering for joy this very day. Practice in earnest, and the | gift is yours. Would God deceive you? Can His promise fail? Can you |
| W1:165.4 | yours today but for the asking. Nor need you perceive how great the | gift, how changed your mind will be before it comes to you. Ask to |
| W1:168.3 | Today we ask of God the | gift He has most carefully preserved within our hearts, waiting to be |
| W1:168.3 | preserved within our hearts, waiting to be acknowledged. This the | gift by which God leans to us and lifts us up, taking salvation's |
| W1:168.3 | takes us in His arms and sweeps away the cobwebs of our sleep. His | gift of grace is more than just an answer. It restores all memories |
| W1:169.1 | gently laid and willingly received, an altar clean and holy for the | gift. |
| W1:169.2 | the world contains that those whose minds are lighted by the | gift of grace cannot believe the world of fear is real. |
| W1:169.11 | And now we ask for grace, the final | gift salvation can bestow. Experience that grace provides will end in |
| W1:R5.11 | Let this review be then your | gift to me. For this alone I need—that you will hear the words I |
| W1:185.12 | created, given you by its Creator and established as His own eternal | gift. How can you fail when you but ask for what He wills for you? |
| W1:185.12 | for you? And how could your request be limited to you alone? No | gift of God can be unshared. It is this attribute that sets the gifts |
| W1:185.13 | No one can lose and everyone must gain whenever any | gift of God has been requested and received by anyone. God gives but |
| W1:186.13 | no sorrow. He would make a restitution, though He is complete; a | gift to you, although He knows that you have everything already. He |
| W1:187.9 | will take away all thought of form and leave instead the perfect | gift forever there, forever to increase, forever yours, forever given |
| W1:188.4 | beyond all measure, given and returned. To you, the giver of the | gift, does God Himself give thanks. And in His blessing does the |
| W1:188.6 | The light within you is sufficient. It alone has power to give the | gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer world and let your thoughts |
| W1:189.6 | Its Love Which knows us perfect as Itself, Its sight which is the | gift Its Love bestows on us. We learn the way today. It is as sure as |
| W1:191.5 | accept his true Identity is truly saved. And his salvation is the | gift he gives to everyone in gratitude to Him Who pointed out the way |
| W1:191.10 | to redeem the lost, to save the helpless, and to give the world the | gift of his forgiveness. Who could see the world as dark and sinful |
| W1:192.6 | gone, you will indeed perceive that for Christ's vision and the | gift of sight no sacrifice was asked, and only pain was lifted from a |
| W1:194.2 | to freedom on it. You are saved, and your salvation thus becomes the | gift you give the world because you have received. |
| W1:197.5 | God blesses every | gift you give to Him and every gift is given Him because it can be |
| W1:197.5 | God blesses every gift you give to Him and every | gift is given Him because it can be given only to yourself, and what |
| W1:198.1 | to have will be undone. Then are you free, for freedom is your | gift, and you can now receive the gift you gave. |
| W1:198.1 | are you free, for freedom is your gift, and you can now receive the | gift you gave. |
| W1:198.5 | intelligent to thank the One Who gives salvation, and accept His | gift with gratitude? And is it not a kindness to yourself to hear His |
| W1:198.12 | of Christ appears unveiled at last in this one dream. This is the | gift the Holy Spirit holds for you from God your Father. Let today be |
| W1:198.15 | brought us here will not forsake us now. For He would give to us the | gift that God has given us through Him today. Now is it time for your |
| W1:199.7 | Be free today, and carry freedom as your | gift to those who still believe they are enslaved within a body. Be |
| W1:199.7 | now, and give your mind to Him Who calls to you to make this | gift to Him. For He would give you perfect freedom, perfect joy, and |
| W1:R6.11 | completely for the way each practice period can best become a loving | gift of freedom to the world. |
| W2:224.1 | looks to it to give it light. It lights the world as well. It is the | gift my Father gave me, the one as well I give the world. There is no |
| W2:224.1 | my Father gave me, the one as well I give the world. There is no | gift but this that can be either given or received. This is reality, |
| W2:233.1 | Whose tenderness I cannot comprehend but which is yet Your perfect | gift to me. |
| W2:236.2 | thought but Yours. I rule my mind and offer it to You. Accept my | gift, for it is Yours to me. |
| W2:270.1 | Father, Christ's vision is Your | gift to me, and it has power to translate all that the body's eyes |
| W2:WIHS.1 | to knowledge through the grace that God has given Him, to be His | gift to everyone who turns to Him for truth. Across the bridge that |
| W2:WIHS.5 | Accept your Father's | gift. It is a call from Love to Love that it be but itself. The Holy |
| W2:WIHS.5 | call from Love to Love that it be but itself. The Holy Spirit is His | gift by Which the quietness of Heaven is restored to God's beloved |
| W2:287.1 | I go but Heaven? What could be a substitute for happiness? What | gift could I prefer before the peace of God? What treasure would I |
| W2:295.1 | He may use my eyes today and thus redeem the world. He asks this | gift that He may offer peace of mind to me and take away all terror |
| W2:295.2 | My Father, Christ has asked a | gift of me, and one I give that it be given me. Help me to use the |
| W2:297.1 | Forgiveness is the only | gift I give because it is the only gift I want, and everything I give |
| W2:297.1 | Forgiveness is the only gift I give because it is the only | gift I want, and everything I give I give myself. This is salvation's |
| W2:304.2 | Let me forgive and thus receive salvation for the world. It is Your | gift, my Father, given me to offer to Your holy Son that he may find |
| W2:305.2 | it is Your will that we be saved. Help us today but to accept Your | gift and judge it not. For it has come to us to save us from our |
| W2:306.2 | make an offering sufficient for Your Son. But in Your Love, the | gift of Christ is his. |
| W2:WILJ.1 | Christ's Second Coming gives the Son of God the | gift to hear the Voice for God proclaim that what is false is false |
| W2:WILJ.3 | hell along with you, accept this holy truth: God's Judgment is the | gift of the correction He bestowed on all your errors, freeing you |
| W2:311.1 | and therefore judges falsely. Let us not use it today but make a | gift of it to Him Who has a different use for it. He will relieve you |
| W2:313.1 | in. And love will come wherever it is asked. This vision is Your | gift. The eyes of Christ look on a world forgiven. In His sight are |
| W2:315.1 | speaks a word of gratitude or mercy, and my mind perceives this | gift and takes it as its own. And everyone who finds the way to God |
| W2:316.1 | As every | gift my brothers give is mine, so every gift I give belongs to me. |
| W2:316.1 | As every gift my brothers give is mine, so every | gift I give belongs to me. Each one allows a past mistake to go and |
| W2:316.1 | on the holy mind my Father loves. His grace is given me in every | gift a brother has received throughout all time and past all time as |
| W2:316.1 | treasure house is full, and angels watch its open doors that not one | gift is lost and only more are added. Let me come to where my |
| W2:322.1 | to give God's ancient messages to me. His memory abides in every | gift that I receive of Him. And every dream serves only to conceal |
| W2:333.2 | the world. For this alone will never fail in anything, being Your | gift to Your beloved Son. |
| W2:WIM.2 | A miracle contains the | gift of grace, for it is given and received as one. And thus it |
| W2:343.1 | The end of suffering cannot be loss. The | gift of everything can but be gain. You only give. You never take |
| W2:343.2 | mercy and the peace of God are free. Salvation has no cost. It is a | gift that must be freely given and received, and it is this that we |
| W2:345.1 | here on earth, the miracle is closer to Your gifts than any other | gift which I can give. Then let me give this gift alone today, which, |
| W2:345.1 | gifts than any other gift which I can give. Then let me give this | gift alone today, which, born of true forgiveness, lights the way |
| W2:347.1 | It is sick. But You have offered freedom, and I choose to claim Your | gift today. And so I give all judgment to the One You gave to me to |
| W2:349.1 | and make my own. It will be given me because I have chosen it as the | gift I want to give. Father, Your gifts are mine. Each one that I |
| W2:WAI.3 | which through our joint forgiveness is redeemed. And this, our | gift, is therefore given us. We look on everyone as brothers and |
| W2:FL.5 | We will not end this year without the | gift our Father promised to His holy Son. We are forgiven now. And we |
| M:4.7 | instead; where he thought something was asked of him, he finds a | gift bestowed on him. |
| M:6.2 | appear to have been received. It is not up to him to judge when his | gift should be accepted. Let him be certain it has been received and |
| M:6.3 | done that, they have also given the outcome, for that is part of the | gift. No one can give if he is concerned with the result of the |
| M:6.3 | giving itself, and neither the giver nor the receiver would have the | gift. Trust is an essential part of giving; in fact, it is the part |
| M:6.3 | that guarantees the giver will not lose but only gain. Who gives a | gift and then remains with it to be sure it is used as the giver |
| M:6.4 | It is the relinquishing of all concern about the | gift that makes it truly given. And it is trust that makes true |
| M:6.4 | And it is the Holy Spirit in the mind of the giver Who gives the | gift to Him. How can it be lost ? How can it be ineffectual? How can |
| M:6.4 | it be wasted? God's treasure house can never be empty. And if one | gift were missing, it would not be full. Yet is its fullness |
| M:7.1 | for giving truly, and so he has not received the benefit of his | gift. |
| M:7.3 | he can give it. If he doubts this, let him remember Who gave the | gift and Who received it. Thus is his doubt corrected. He thought the |
| M:7.4 | the opposite of love, regardless of the form it takes. Doubt not the | gift, and it is impossible to doubt its result. This is the certainty |
| M:8.6 | will put them all in one category—they are unreal. This is the | gift of its Teacher—the understanding that only two categories are |
| M:17.2 | of help the teacher gives to those who need his aid? Here is his | gift most clearly given him. For he will give only what he has chosen |
| M:17.2 | For he will give only what he has chosen for himself. And in this | gift is his judgment upon the holy Son of God. |
| M:20.4 | better choice? Which gives you more? A tranquil mind is not a little | gift. Would you not rather live than choose to die? |
| M:20.6 | because His Will is yours. Now is the mighty Will of God Himself His | gift to you. He does not seek to keep it for Himself. Why would you |

| Tx:29.14 | His host nor where His host can meet with Him. And nowhere else His | gifts of peace and joy and all the happiness His Presence brings can |
| Tx:29.14 | they might be yours. You cannot see your Guest, but you can see the | gifts He brought. And when you look on them, you will believe His |
| Tx:30.92 | He Who gives all miracles has not been given freedom to bestow His | gifts upon God's Son. When he is tempted, he denies reality. And he |
| W1:42.2 | place at the right time. Such is the strength of God. Such are His | gifts. |
| W1:42.6 | God's | gifts to me must be mine because He gave them to me. |
| W1:66.10 | to you, it must be the gift of the ego. Does the ego really have | gifts to give, being itself an illusion and offering only the |
| W1:66.10 | to give, being itself an illusion and offering only the illusion of | gifts? |
| W1:98.10 | and gladness. Do not lose one chance to be the glad receiver of His | gifts, that you may give them to the world today. |
| W1:98.11 | will open up the way to happiness, and peace and trust will be His | gifts, His answer to your words. He will respond with all His faith |
| W1:99.15 | truth of your completeness, unity, and peace. You cannot lose the | gifts your Father gave. You do not want to be another self. You have |
| W1:100.4 | God wills perfect happiness for all who will accept their Father's | gifts as theirs. |
| W1:104.1 | what He wills. Yet must there be a place made ready to receive His | gifts. They are not welcomed gladly by a mind which has instead |
| W1:104.1 | are not welcomed gladly by a mind which has instead received the | gifts it made where His belong, as substitutes for them. |
| W1:104.2 | Today we would remove all meaningless and self-made | gifts which we have placed upon the holy altar where God's gifts |
| W1:104.2 | self-made gifts which we have placed upon the holy altar where God's | gifts belong. These are the gifts which are our own in truth. His are |
| W1:104.2 | placed upon the holy altar where God's gifts belong. These are the | gifts which are our own in truth. His are the gifts which we |
| W1:104.2 | belong. These are the gifts which are our own in truth. His are the | gifts which we inherited before time was and which will still be ours |
| W1:104.3 | These are the | gifts which are within us now, for they are timeless. And we need not |
| W1:104.6 | Then lay aside the conflicts of the world that offer other | gifts and other goals made of illusions, witnessed to by them, and |
| W1:104.7 | We clear a holy place within our minds before His altar, where His | gifts of peace and joy are welcome and to which we come to find what |
| W1:104.8 | is done already and that joy and peace belong to us as His eternal | gifts. We will not let ourselves lose sight of them between the times |
| W1:104.9 | I seek but what belongs to me in truth. God's | gifts of joy and peace are all I want. |
| W1:105.1 | them, knowing they belong to us. And we will try to understand these | gifts increase as we receive them. They are not like to the gifts the |
| W1:105.1 | these gifts increase as we receive them. They are not like to the | gifts the world can give, in which the giver loses as he gives the |
| W1:105.1 | gives the gift; the taker is the richer by his loss. These are not | gifts, but bargains made with guilt. |
| W1:105.3 | all levels of the world you see. It strips all meaning from the | gifts you give and leaves you nothing in the ones you take. A major |
| W1:105.4 | joy, and you will learn a different way of looking at a gift. God's | gifts will never lessen when they are given away. They but increase |
| W1:105.9 | Thus you prepare yourself to recognize God's | gifts to you and let your mind be free of all that would prevent |
| W1:105.12 | to him, see it as but another chance to let yourself receive the | gifts of God as yours. Then bless your brother thankfully, and say: |
| W1:106.1 | however loudly it may seem to call; if you will not accept its petty | gifts which give you nothing that you really want; if you will listen |
| W1:108.12 | It might be helpful, too, to think of one to whom to give your | gifts. He represents the others, and through him you give to all. |
| W1:R3.9 | not given it the opportunity to prove how great are its potential | gifts to you. |
| W1:117.3 | to me in truth. Love is my heritage and with it joy. These are the | gifts my Father gave to me. I would accept all that is mine in truth. |
| W1:122.4 | What would you want forgiveness cannot give? What | gifts but these are worthy to be sought? What fancied value, trivial |
| W1:122.7 | now. It is the gift of God and not the world. The world can give no | gifts of any value to a mind which has received what God has given as |
| W1:122.9 | Remembering the | gifts forgiveness gives, we undertake our practicing today with hope |
| W1:122.12 | to picture. Now we walk directly into light, and we receive the | gifts which have been held in store for us since time began, kept |
| W1:122.13 | Let not your | gifts recede throughout the day, as you return again to meet a world |
| W1:122.13 | meet a world of shifting change and bleak appearances. Retain your | gifts in clear awareness as you see the changeless in the heart of |
| W1:122.13 | the light of truth behind appearances. Be tempted not to let your | gifts slip by and drift into forgetfulness but hold them firmly in |
| W1:122.14 | Remind yourself how precious are these | gifts with this reminder, which has power to hold your gifts in your |
| W1:122.14 | are these gifts with this reminder, which has power to hold your | gifts in your awareness through the day: |
| W1:122.15 | want. Today I have accepted this as true. Today I have received the | gifts of God. |
| W1:123.2 | into the real extent of all the gains which you have made; the | gifts you have received. Be glad today in loving thankfulness your |
| W1:123.3 | to fulfill. Be thankful that your value far transcends your meager | gifts and petty judgments of the one whom God established as His Son. |
| W1:123.6 | For He would offer you the thanks you give, since He receives your | gifts in loving gratitude and gives them back a thousand and a |
| W1:123.6 | and a hundred thousand more than they were given. He will bless your | gifts by sharing them with you, and so they grow in power and in |
| W1:124.7 | We have accepted and we now would give, for we would keep the | gifts our Father gave. Today we would experience ourselves at one |
| W1:126.7 | having given Him the gift He asks of you, you cannot recognize His | gifts and think He has not given them to you. Yet would He ask you |
| W1:126.7 | Could He be satisfied with empty gestures and evaluate such petty | gifts as worthy of His Son? Salvation is a better gift than this, and |
| W1:127.7 | all value you have placed upon its meager offerings and senseless | gifts, and let the gift of God replace them all. |
| W1:135.6 | no care, and no concern at all. Defend its life, or give it | gifts to make it beautiful or walls to make it safe, and you but say |
| W1:136.13 | its purpose is. Perhaps it sighs a little when you throw away its | gifts, and yet it knows with perfect certainty that what God wills |
| W1:R4.11 | you practice for the day unhurriedly, with time enough to see the | gifts which they contain for you, and let them be received where they |
| W1:142.1 | [123] I thank my Father for His | gifts to me. |
| W1:153.17 | us do the hour that is yet to come, while thanking Him for all the | gifts He gave us in the one gone by. |
| W1:153.21 | shine from them to all their brothers come from Him. These are His | gifts to you. Defenselessness is all you need to give Him in return. |
| W1:154.11 | We practice giving Him what He would have that we may recognize His | gifts to us. He needs our voice that He may speak through us. He |
| W1:154.11 | will united with His own, that we may be the true receivers of the | gifts He gives. |
| W1:154.15 | is. For as we prove that we accept no will we do not share, our many | gifts from our Creator will spring to our sight and leap into our |
| W1:156.4 | the world is sanctified because of you. All things that live bring | gifts to you and offer them in gratitude and gladness at your feet. |
| W1:158.11 | We practice seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy | gifts we give, Christ's vision looks upon ourselves as well. |
| W1:162.4 | it changed that it is now the treasury in which God places all His | gifts and all His Love to be distributed to all the world, increased |

| W1:166.1 | to your happiness. And yet unless your will is one with His, His | gifts are not received. But what would make you think there is |
| W1:166.3 | The | gifts of God are not acceptable to anyone who holds such strange |
| W1:166.3 | holds such strange beliefs. He must believe that, to accept God's | gifts, however evident they may become, however urgently he may be |
| W1:166.5 | Yet in his lonely, senseless wanderings, God's | gifts go with him, all unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But he |
| W1:166.8 | and perceive His gentle hand directing you to look upon your | gifts. How could you then proclaim your poverty in exile? He would |
| W1:166.9 | identity. Perhaps God's Word is truer than your own. Perhaps His | gifts to you are real. Perhaps He has not wholly been outwitted by |
| W1:166.11 | with this one merciful reply: “It is not so.” He points to all the | gifts you have each time the thought of poverty oppresses you and |
| W1:166.12 | had forgotten. For His touch on you has made you like Himself. The | gifts you have are not for you alone. What He has come to offer you, |
| W1:166.12 | to make in which to hide from God. He has reminded you of all the | gifts that God has given you. He speaks as well of what becomes your |
| W1:166.12 | He speaks as well of what becomes your will when you accept these | gifts and recognize they are your own. |
| W1:166.13 | The | gifts are yours, entrusted to your care to give to all who chose the |
| W1:166.13 | that comes to those who feel the touch of Christ and recognize God's | gifts. Let sorrow not tempt you to be unfaithful to your trust. |
| W1:166.14 | touch; your change of mind becomes the proof that who accepts God's | gifts can never suffer anything. You are entrusted with the world's |
| W1:166.15 | of what Christ's touch can offer everyone. God has entrusted all His | gifts to you. Be witness in your happiness to how transformed the |
| W1:166.15 | to how transformed the mind becomes which chooses to accept His | gifts and feel the touch of Christ. Such is your mission now. For God |
| W1:166.15 | Christ. Such is your mission now. For God entrusts the giving of His | gifts to all who have received them. He has shared His joy with you. |
| W1:169.13 | grateful to return, as you were glad to go an instant and accept the | gifts that grace provided you. You carry them back to yourself. And |
| W1:178.3 | [166] I am entrusted with the | gifts of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:183.10 | Today you can achieve a state in which you will experience the | gifts of grace. You can escape all bondage of the world and give the |
| W1:185.12 | No gift of God can be unshared. It is this attribute that sets the | gifts of God apart from every dream that ever seemed to take the |
| W1:188.3 | all tired hearts and lights all vision as it passes by. All of its | gifts are given everyone, and everyone unites in giving thanks to you |
| W1:188.4 | restores the memory to you as well. From you salvation radiates with | gifts beyond all measure, given and returned. To you, the giver of |
| W1:188.4 | in His blessing does the light in you shine brighter, adding to the | gifts you have to offer to the world. |
| W1:189.10 | it is unto You we look for them. Our hands are open to receive Your | gifts. We have no thoughts we think apart from You and cherish no |
| W1:193.12 | who he is. And God would have him not forget His Love and all the | gifts His Love brings with it. Would you now renounce your own |
| W1:195.6 | otherwise we offer thanks for nothing and we fail to recognize the | gifts of God to us. |
| W1:197.1 | again unless you find external gratitude and lavish thanks. Your | gifts must be received with honor, lest they be withdrawn. And so you |
| W1:197.1 | received with honor, lest they be withdrawn. And so you think God's | gifts are loans at best; at worst, deceptions which would cheat you |
| W1:197.3 | for its release can only mirror yours. Your gratitude is all your | gifts require that they be a lasting offering of a thankful heart |
| W1:197.3 | from hell forever. Is it this you would undo by taking back your | gifts because they were not honored? It is you who honor them and |
| W1:197.3 | and give them fitting thanks, for it is you who have received the | gifts. |
| W1:197.4 | It does not matter if another thinks your | gifts unworthy. In his mind there is a part that joins with yours in |
| W1:197.4 | that joins with yours in thanking you. It does not matter if your | gifts seem lost and ineffectual. They are received where they are |
| W1:197.5 | what belongs to God must be His own. Yet you will never realize His | gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, forever giving out, |
| W1:197.6 | Withdraw the | gifts you give, and you will think that what is given you has been |
| W1:197.6 | sins you think you see outside yourself, and you can never think the | gifts of God are lent but for a little while before He snatches them |
| W1:198.14 | in his holiness. He needs no thoughts of mercy. Who could give him | gifts when everything is his? And who could dream of offering |
| W1:199.5 | in power to help the world, and none which will not gain in added | gifts to you as well. We sound the call of freedom round the world |
| W1:199.5 | with this idea. And would you be exempt from the acceptance of the | gifts you give? |
| W1:206.1 | [186] Salvation of the world depends on me. I am entrusted with the | gifts of God because I am His Son. And I would give His gifts where |
| W1:206.1 | with the gifts of God because I am His Son. And I would give His | gifts where He intended them to be. I am not a body. I am free. For I |
| W2:I.6 | ahead and fix our eyes upon the journey's end. Accept these little | gifts of thanks from us, as through Christ's vision we behold a world |
| W2:WS.3 | altar to the holy Name of God whereon His Word is written, with the | gifts of your forgiveness laid before it and the memory of God not |
| W2:233.2 | no reserve at all. This is His day. And so it is a day of countless | gifts and mercies unto us. |
| W2:234.2 | of Your Love. We recognize our safety and give thanks for all the | gifts You have bestowed on us, for all the loving help we have |
| W2:239.1 | be hidden by a false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the | gifts our Father gave us. Can we see in those with whom He shares His |
| W2:273.2 | can rob me of what You would have me keep? I cannot lose Your | gifts to me. And so the peace You gave Your Son is with me still, in |
| W2:279.2 | loves the Son Whom He created as His own. Would You withhold the | gifts You gave to me? |
| W2:284.2 | me not fail to trust in You today, accepting but the joyous as Your | gifts, accepting but the joyous as the truth. |
| W2:297.2 | and accomplished by Your grace. Thanks be to You for Your eternal | gifts, and thanks to You for my Identity. |
| W2:298.2 | are beside me. Certain is Your way. And I am grateful for Your holy | gifts of certain sanctuary and escape from everything that would |
| W2:306.2 | return to You, remembering we never went away, remembering Your holy | gifts to us. In gratitude and thankfulness, we come, with empty hands |
| W2:315.1 | treasures come to me with every passing moment. I am blessed with | gifts throughout the day, in value far beyond all things of which I |
| W2:315.2 | I thank You, Father, for the many | gifts that come to me today and every day from every Son of God. My |
| W2:315.2 | day from every Son of God. My brothers are unlimited in all their | gifts to me. Now may I offer them my thankfulness that gratitude to |
| W2:316.1 | are and enter in where I am truly welcome and at home among the | gifts that God has given me. |
| W2:316.2 | Father, I would accept Your | gifts today. I do not recognize them. Yet I trust that You Who gave |
| W2:322.1 | I sacrifice illusions, nothing more. And as illusions go, I find the | gifts illusions tried to hide, awaiting me in shining welcome and in |
| W2:330.1 | is already theirs? The mind that is made willing to accept God's | gifts has been restored to Spirit and extends its freedom and its |
| W2:334.1 | that rest on false perception. Let me not accept such meager | gifts again today. God's Voice is offering the peace of God to all |
| W2:344.1 | what can an illusion offer me? Yet he whom I forgive will give me | gifts beyond the worth of anything on earth. Let my forgiven brothers |
| W2:345.1 | Father, a miracle reflects Your | gifts to me, Your Son. And every one I give returns to me, reminding |
| W2:345.1 | there are no needs. But here on earth, the miracle is closer to Your | gifts than any other gift which I can give. Then let me give this |
| W2:349.1 | me because I have chosen it as the gift I want to give. Father, Your | gifts are mine. Each one that I accept gives me a miracle to give. |
| W2:361.1 | And if I need but stillness and a tranquil, open mind, these are the | gifts I will receive of Him. He is in charge by my request. And He |
| M:4.1 | that will establish them as what they are. God gives special | gifts to His teachers because they have a special role in His plan |
| M:4.1 | —set in time as a means of leading out of time. These special | gifts, born in the holy relationship toward which the |
| M:4.4 | would place his faith in the shabby offerings of the ego when the | gifts of God are laid before him? What is it that induces them to |
| M:4.16 | before them, making sure no harm can come to them. They hold His | gifts and follow in His way because God's Voice directs them in all |
| M:6.2 | has been given, it will be received. And what is time before the | gifts of God? We have referred many times in the text to the |
| M:6.2 | of treasures laid up equally for the giver and the receiver of God's | gifts. Not one is lost, for they can but increase. No teacher of God |
| M:6.3 | not the function of God's teachers to evaluate the outcome of their | gifts. It is merely their function to give them. Once they have done |
| M:6.4 | concern, then, can a teacher of God have about what becomes of his | gifts? Given by God to God, who in this holy exchange can receive |
| M:7.3 | himself. The teacher of God is a miracle worker because he gives the | gifts he has received. Yet he must first accept them. He need do no |
| M:7.3 | and Who received it. Thus is his doubt corrected. He thought the | gifts of God could be withdrawn. That was a mistake, but hardly one |
| M:15.4 | can the world hold out to you, regardless of your judgments on its | gifts, that you would rather have? You will be judged, and judged in |
| M:23.1 | God's | gifts can rarely be received directly. Even the most advanced of |
| M:23.4 | called to mind. Remembering His name is to give thanks for all the | gifts that God has given you. And gratitude to God becomes the way in |
| M:25.5 | powers. As investment has been withdrawn from the world's material | gifts, the ego has been seriously threatened. It may still be strong |
| M:25.6 | freedom for greater imprisonment. The Holy Spirit needs these | gifts, and those who offer them to Him and Him alone go with Christ's |
| M:26.2 | will come when this is understood. And meanwhile they give all their | gifts to the teachers of God who look to them for help, asking all |
| M:28.1 | of the Holy Spirit's final dream. It is the recognition of the | gifts of God. It is the dream in which the body functions perfectly, |
| M:29.5 | given him by God is but to acknowledge his Creator and accept His | gifts. And His gifts have no limit. To ask the Holy Spirit to decide |
| M:29.5 | God is but to acknowledge his Creator and accept His gifts. And His | gifts have no limit. To ask the Holy Spirit to decide for you is |

| Tx:4.52 | It has never really entered your mind to | give up every idea you ever had that opposes knowledge. You retain |

| Tx:7.84 | ego tries to persuade you that it can free you of conflict, lest you | give the ego up and free yourself. The ego, using its own warped |
| Tx:7.88 | errors. But having accepted the errors as yours, do not keep them. | Give them over quickly to the Holy Spirit to be undone completely so |
| Tx:7.96 | not failed to secure it for yourselves. If it was the Will of God to | give it to you, He gave it forever. If it was His Will that you have |
| Tx:7.109 | upon him? Does it keep his heart untouched by fear and allow him to | give always without any sense of loss? Does it teach him that this |
| Tx:7.110 | You who could | give the love of God to everything you see and touch and remember are |
| Tx:8.2 | your learning, but the ego has no power to distract you unless you | give it the power. |
| Tx:8.4 | which you are giving up by attacking them. How can you have what you | give up? You share to have, but you do not give it up yourself. When |
| Tx:8.4 | How can you have what you give up? You share to have, but you do not | give it up yourself. When you give up peace, you are excluding |
| Tx:8.4 | up? You share to have, but you do not give it up yourself. When you | give up peace, you are excluding yourself from it. This is a |
| Tx:8.18 | the perfectly created in union with Perfect Creator. The Father must | give fatherhood to His Son, because His own Fatherhood must be |
| Tx:8.21 | to him, because it is your responsibility to yourself. | Give him his place in the Kingdom, and you will have yours. The |
| Tx:8.27 | aware of the Father's Will myself. This is the awareness I came to | give you, and your problem in accepting it is the problem of this |
| Tx:8.29 | think the world needs peace as much as you do? Do you not want to | give it to the world as much as you want to receive it? For unless |
| Tx:8.29 | do, you will not receive it. If you will to have it of me, you must | give it. Rehabilitation does not come from anyone else. You can have |
| Tx:8.41 | will will never be wanting, and if you want to share it you will. I | give it willingly and gladly, because I need you as much as you need |
| Tx:8.46 | How, then, can you accept anything else or | give anything else and expect joy in return? And what else but joy |
| Tx:8.56 | you have put yours. If the body becomes for you a means which you | give to the Holy Spirit to use on behalf of union of the Sonship, you |
| Tx:8.57 | him his. Do not allow him to belittle himself in your mind, but | give him freedom from his belief in littleness and thus escape from |

| Tx:8.83 | How you wake is the sign of how you have used sleep. To whom did you | give it? Under which teacher did you place it? Whenever you wake |
| Tx:8.88 | exactly what I ask, and everything which argues for your doing it. I | give you no limits because God lays none upon you. When you limit |
| Tx:8.117 | set the value on what you receive and have priced it by what you | give. To believe that it is possible to get much for little is to |
| Tx:8.117 | only by this willingness can you recognize what you have. What you | give is therefore the value you put on what you have, being the exact |
| Tx:8.118 | can ask of the Holy Spirit, then, only by giving to Him, and you can | give to Him only where you see Him. If you see Him in everyone, |
| Tx:9.5 | his errors and accept them, you are accepting yours. If you want to | give yours over to the Holy Spirit, you must do this with his. Unless |
| Tx:9.8 | use of an ability which you do not need, but which you have made. | Give it to Him! You do not know how to use it. He will teach you how |
| Tx:9.20 | unhealed healer more carefully now. By definition, he is trying to | give what he has not received. If he is a theologian, he may begin |
| Tx:9.25 | get something for himself, the unhealed healer does not know how to | give and consequently cannot share. He cannot correct because he is |
| Tx:9.32 | of His consistency. When you are inconsistent, you will not always | give rise to joy and so you will not always recognize His |
| Tx:9.47 | you do not want anything else. Return your part of Him, and He will | give you all of Himself in exchange for your return of what belongs |
| Tx:9.69 | Yet to | give up the dissociation of reality brings more than merely lack of |
| Tx:9.69 | of God and of yourself for you, waiting for your acceptance. | Give up gladly everything that would stand in the way of your |
| Tx:9.70 | for you. But signify your will to remember Him and behold! He will | give you everything but for the asking. |
| Tx:9.79 | you because the value of God's Son is one. When I said, “My peace I | give unto you,” I meant it. Peace came from God through me to you. It |
| Tx:9.83 | harmlessness, and because of this fear, you have been willing to | give up your own perfect helpfulness and your own perfect Help. |
| Tx:9.84 | He will be heard when you place no other gods before Him. You can | give up the god of sickness for your brothers; in fact, you would |
| Tx:9.84 | sickness for your brothers; in fact, you would have to do so if you | give him up for yourself. For if you see him anywhere, you have |
| Tx:9.88 | but they are not there to take it from you, and you are not able to | give it to them. |
| Tx:9.89 | You are not free to | give up freedom, but only to deny it. You cannot do what God did not |
| Tx:9.94 | yourself, have done this to you. You will receive the message you | give, because it is the message you want. You may believe that you |
| Tx:9.94 | You may believe that you judge your brothers by the messages they | give you, but you have judged them by the message you give to them. |
| Tx:9.94 | messages they give you, but you have judged them by the message you | give to them. Do not attribute your denial of joy to them, or you |
| Tx:10.4 | a dark cornerstone hidden, for its protection will not save you. I | give you the lamp and I will go with you. You will not take this |
| Tx:10.10 | Love does not limit, and what it creates is not limited. To | give without limit is God's Will for you because only this can bring |
| Tx:10.11 | God is your heritage because His one gift is Himself. How can you | give except like Him if you would know His gift to you? Give, then, |
| Tx:10.11 | How can you give except like Him if you would know His gift to you? | Give, then, without limit and without end to learn how much He has |
| Tx:10.11 | given you. Your ability to accept Him depends on your willingness to | give as He gives. Your fatherhood and your Father are one. God willed |
| Tx:10.13 | conflict. God then may seem to demand of you what you do not want to | give and thus deprive you of what you want. Would God, who wants only |
| Tx:10.29 | Comforter can comfort you. In the quiet of His temple, He waits to | give you the peace that is yours. Give His peace that you may enter |
| Tx:10.29 | quiet of His temple, He waits to give you the peace that is yours. | Give His peace that you may enter the temple and find it waiting for |
| Tx:10.47 | your power. Yet its one claim to your allegiance is that it can | give power to you. Without this belief, you would not listen to it at |
| Tx:10.67 | accept what I can do for you. For it is done already, and unless you | give all that you have received, you will not know that your Redeemer |
| Tx:10.81 | taking, and you do not perceive it as sharing. The Holy Spirit will | give you only what is yours and will take nothing in return. For what |
| Tx:10.83 | you have asked it of me. No one of us but has the answer in him, to | give to anyone who asks it of him. Ask anything of God's Son and His |
| Tx:10.85 | As you become willing to accept this Help by asking for it, you will | give it because you want it. Nothing will be beyond your healing |
| Tx:11.1 | you have made his error real to you. To interpret error is to | give it power, and having done this, you will overlook truth. |
| Tx:11.3 | for help? No response can be appropriate except the willingness to | give it to him, for this and only this is what he is asking for. |
| Tx:11.5 | an appeal for help as what it is, it is because you are unwilling to | give help and to receive it. The analysis of the ego's “real” |
| Tx:11.15 | regardless of the density of the fog that obscures it. If you | give no power to the fog to obscure the light, it has none, for it |
| Tx:11.16 | for health is to recognize in hatred the call for love. And to | give a brother what he really wants is to offer it unto yourself, for |
| Tx:11.21 | You will not fail in your mission because I failed not in mine. | Give me but a little trust in the name of the complete trust I have |
| Tx:11.24 | I once asked if you were willing to sell all you have and | give to the poor and follow me. This is what I meant: If you had no |
| Tx:11.39 | journey to accomplishment, and the goal He sets before you He will | give you. For He will never deceive God's Son, whom He loves with the |
| Tx:11.58 | He knows of the Father's love for Him. And knowing this, He would | give you what is yours. In perfect peace He waits for you at His |
| Tx:11.70 | reality, for its reality is only what you gave it. You cannot really | give anything but love to anyone or anything, nor can you really |
| Tx:11.70 | is because you have looked within and thought you saw the power to | give something else within yourself. It was only this decision that |
| Tx:11.83 | with Him could never be content without reality. What God did not | give you has no power over you, and the attraction of love for love |
| Tx:12.20 | You were at peace until you asked for special favor. And God did not | give it, for the request was alien to Him, and you could not ask this |
| Tx:12.20 | an unloving father, demanding of Him what only such a father could | give. And the peace of God's Son was shattered, for he no longer |
| Tx:12.22 | insanity. [And this He did. No one who hears His answer but will | give up insanity.] For His answer is the reference point beyond |
| Tx:12.55 | There is a light which this world cannot | give. Yet you can give it, as it was given you. And as you give it, |
| Tx:12.55 | There is a light which this world cannot give. Yet you can | give it, as it was given you. And as you give it, it shines forth to |
| Tx:12.55 | cannot give. Yet you can give it, as it was given you. And as you | give it, it shines forth to call you from the world and follow it. |
| Tx:12.61 | has not the power to touch the living world at all. You could not | give it that, and so although you turn in sadness from it, you cannot |
| Tx:12.62 | world you made but do not want. The only effort you need make to | give this world away in glad exchange for what you did not make is |
| Tx:12.64 | of Him the joyful journey home. You wait but for yourself. To | give this sad world over and exchange your errors for the peace of |
| Tx:12.70 | Only the Holy Spirit knows what you need. For He will | give you all things that do not block the way to light. And what else |
| Tx:12.75 | in time. Salvation from the world lies only here. My peace I | give you. Take it of me in glad exchange for all the world has |
| Tx:12.76 | here, but in eternity. You travel but in dreams while safe at home. | Give thanks to every part of you that you have taught how to remember |
| Tx:12.76 | that you have taught how to remember you. Thus does the Son of God | give thanks unto his Father for his purity. |
| Tx:13.5 | world to make Christ's vision possible even here. Help Him to | give His gift of light to all who think they wander in the darkness, |
| Tx:13.11 | ego's laws are strict, and breaches are severely punished. Therefore | give no obedience to its laws, for they are laws of punishment. And |
| Tx:13.13 | The world can | give you only what you gave it, for being nothing but your own |
| Tx:13.24 | A minute, even less, will be enough to free you from the past and | give your mind in peace over to the Atonement. When everyone is |
| Tx:13.26 | what He has saved you from. What He has saved you from is gone. | Give no reality to guilt, and see no reason for it. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.33 | belief I offer unto it. My faith in you is strong as all the love I | give my Father. My trust in you is without limit and without the fear |
| Tx:13.38 | Nothing in this world can | give this peace, for nothing in this world is wholly shared. Perfect |
| Tx:13.48 | they that have been thrown away. You can learn to bless and cannot | give what you have not. If, then, you offer blessing, it must have |
| Tx:13.48 | And you must also have accepted it as yours, for how else could you | give it away? |
| Tx:13.50 | If you decide to have and | give and be nothing except a dream, you must direct your thoughts |
| Tx:13.50 | you must direct your thoughts unto oblivion. And if you have and | give and are everything, and all this has been denied, your thought |
| Tx:13.61 | If you would be a happy learner, you must | give everything that you have learned over to the Holy Spirit to be |
| Tx:13.88 | be undone for you and stand in grace before your Father, He will | give Himself to you as He has always done. Giving Himself is all He |
| Tx:13.91 | not the Son of God and trying to teach him guilt instead of love. | Give up this frantic and insane attempt, which cheats you of the joy |
| Tx:14.2 | apart from Him, that resembles it ever so faintly. You cannot even | give a blessing in perfect gentleness. Would you know of One Who |
| Tx:14.14 | your altar, for it was rebuilt through you. And everything you | give to God is yours. Thus He creates, and thus must you restore. |
| Tx:14.18 | Would you continue to | give imagined power to these strange ideas of safety? They are |
| Tx:14.30 | of you together look on them. His judgment must prevail, and He will | give it to you as you join your perception to His. Joining with Him |
| Tx:14.55 | remember your Father, let the Holy Spirit order your thoughts and | give only the answer with which He answers you. Everyone seeks for |
| Tx:14.57 | that this is true. Where there is love, your brother must | give it to you because of what it is. But where there is need for |
| Tx:14.57 | because of what it is. But where there is need for love, you must | give it because of what you are. Long ago we said this course will |
| Tx:14.69 | Do you think that what the Holy Spirit would have you | give He would withhold from you? You have no problems which He cannot |
| Tx:15.12 | so completely, ask yourself, “How long is an instant?” Could you not | give so short a time to the Holy Spirit for your salvation? He asks |
| Tx:15.12 | need of more. It takes far longer to teach you how to be willing to | give Him this than for Him to use this tiny instant to offer you the |
| Tx:15.12 | whole of Heaven. In exchange for this instant, He stands ready to | give you the remembrance of eternity. |
| Tx:15.13 | You will never | give this holy instant to the Holy Spirit on behalf of your release |
| Tx:15.13 | the Holy Spirit on behalf of your release while you are unwilling to | give it to your brothers on behalf of theirs. For the instant of |
| Tx:15.13 | gives their blessed instant to you through your giving it. As you | give it, He offers it to you. |
| Tx:15.14 | Be not unwilling to | give what you would receive of Him, for you join with Him in giving. |
| Tx:15.14 | join with Him in giving. In the crystal cleanness of the release you | give is your instantaneous escape from guilt. You must be holy if you |
| Tx:15.15 | eternal sanctity of God's creation, it is transformed into forever. | Give the eternal instant that eternity may be remembered for you in |
| Tx:15.28 | up by them into a sense of magnitude that can content them. Neither | give littleness, nor accept it. All honor is due the host of God. |
| Tx:15.29 | whom God appointed for Himself. It is beyond all your littleness to | give the gift of God, but not beyond you. For God would give Himself |
| Tx:15.29 | to give the gift of God, but not beyond you. For God would | give Himself through you. He reaches from you to everyone and beyond |
| Tx:15.30 | of God, when will you learn that only holiness can content you and | give you peace? |
| Tx:15.32 | and unable to accept anything for yourself. But you will gladly | give, having received. The host of God need not seek to find anything. |
| Tx:15.36 | Think not that you can find salvation in your own way and have it. | Give over every plan that you have made for your salvation in |
| Tx:15.38 | will recognize in the holy instant in which you willingly and gladly | give over every plan but His. For there lies peace, perfectly clear |
| Tx:15.38 | instant any time and anywhere you want it. In your practice, try to | give over every plan you have accepted for finding magnitude in |
| Tx:15.40 | stated, is this: The holy instant is a time in which you receive and | give perfect communication. This means, however, that it is a time in |
| Tx:15.40 | that it is a time in which your mind is open, both to receive and | give. It is the recognition that all minds are in communication. It |
| Tx:15.42 | forever?” If the answer is no, then the Holy Spirit's readiness to | give it to you is not enough to make it yours, for you are not ready |
| Tx:15.47 | lies. How can you decide that special aspects of the Sonship can | give you more than others? The past has taught you this. Yet the holy |
| Tx:15.54 | one to you. The meaning of love is the meaning God gave to it. | Give to it any meaning apart from His, and it is impossible to |
| Tx:15.59 | fact that, like your Father, you are an idea. And like Him, you can | give yourself completely, wholly without loss, and only with gain. |
| Tx:15.60 | not loss, but completion. From this it follows you can only | give. And this is love, for this alone is natural under the laws of |
| Tx:15.62 | it not. And through me the Holy Spirit gave it unto you, as you will | give it. Let no need that you perceive obscure your need of this. For |
| Tx:15.63 | the idea of peace, for in ideas minds can communicate. If you would | give yourself as your Father gives His Self, you will learn to |
| Tx:15.81 | completion and seek not to restore it to yourselves. Fear not to | give redemption over to your Redeemer's love. He will not fail you, |
| Tx:15.87 | without limits is given you. But to see this, it is necessary to | give up every use the ego has for the body and to accept the fact |
| Tx:15.88 | is the only purpose for which it was given you. Love would always | give increase. Limits are demanded by the ego, representing its |
| Tx:15.88 | him from it, and you have denied his gift to you. His body cannot | give it. And seek it not through yours. Yet your minds are already |
| Tx:15.94 | We who are one cannot | give separately. When you are willing to accept our relationship as |
| Tx:15.94 | our brothers. The gift of union is the only gift that I was born to | give. Give it to me, that you may have it. The time of Christ is the |
| Tx:15.94 | The gift of union is the only gift that I was born to give. | Give it to me, that you may have it. The time of Christ is the time |
| Tx:15.97 | As host to the ego, you believe that you can | give all your guilt away whatever you think and purchase peace. And |
| Tx:15.102 | alien to His Oneness can abide with Him there. Love must be total to | give Him welcome, for the Presence of Holiness creates the holiness |
| Tx:15.103 | This Christmas, | give the Holy Spirit everything that would hurt you. Let yourself be |
| Tx:15.103 | release is total, and when you have accepted it with me, you will | give it with me. All pain and sacrifice and littleness will disappear |
| Tx:15.108 | of nothing? Such is the message of the time of Christ, which I | give you that you may give it and return it to the Father, Who gave |
| Tx:15.108 | is the message of the time of Christ, which I give you that you may | give it and return it to the Father, Who gave it to me. For in the |
| Tx:15.111 | I | give you to the Holy Spirit as part of myself. I know that you will |
| Tx:16.8 | He will not meet them secretly, for He would share everything you | give through Him. And that is why He gives it. |
| Tx:16.9 | What you | give through Him is for the whole Sonship, not for part of it. Leave |
| Tx:16.19 | this and be glad. For love asks only that you be happy and will | give you everything that makes for happiness. You have never given |
| Tx:16.31 | satisfy, but its reality, which awaits you on the other side, will | give you everything. |
| Tx:16.49 | in return. For how much value can he place upon a self that he would | give away to get a better one? |
| Tx:16.67 | gladly, and learn how much awaits you for the simple willingness to | give up nothing because it is nothing. |
| Tx:16.69 | you. He needs only your willingness to share His perspective to | give it to you completely. And your willingness need not be complete |
| Tx:16.71 | at all. How can you change the past except in fantasy? And who can | give you what you think the past deprived you of? The past is |
| Tx:16.77 | completes His giving. You will receive because it is His Will to | give. He gave the holy instant to be given you, and it is impossible |
| Tx:16.80 | or small, possible or impossible. There is nothing that will not | give place to Him and to His majesty. To join in close relationship |
| Tx:16.80 | Him is to accept relationships as real and through their reality to | give over all illusions for the reality of your relationship with |
| Tx:17.2 | things. What you use in fantasy, you deny to truth. Yet what you | give to truth to use for you is safe from fantasy. |
| Tx:17.3 | yourself, you take away from Him Who would release you. Unless you | give it back, it is inevitable that your perspective on reality be |
| Tx:17.5 | real and keep them by justifying your belief in them. But to | give illusions to truth is to enable truth to teach that the |
| Tx:17.6 | Be willing, then, to | give all you have held outside the truth to Him who knows the truth |
| Tx:17.13 | How much do you want salvation? It will | give you the real world, trembling with readiness to be given you. |
| Tx:17.13 | with readiness to be given you. The eagerness of the Holy Spirit to | give you this is so intense He would not wait, although He waits in |
| Tx:17.23 | and therefore unholy by seeing it where it is not and as it is not. | Give the past to Him Who can change your mind about it for you. But |
| Tx:17.45 | for it. In its unholy condition, your goal was all that seemed to | give it meaning. Now it seems to make no sense. Many relationships |
| Tx:17.54 | not concealed within it. The instant remains. But where are you? To | give thanks to each other is to appreciate the holy instant and thus |
| Tx:17.62 | This seems to ask for faith beyond you and beyond what you can | give. Yet this is so only from the viewpoint of the ego, for the ego |
| Tx:17.72 | Enter each situation with the faith that you | give to each other, or you are faithless to your own relationship. |
| Tx:17.77 | hell. And it was nothing but the intolerable strain of refusing to | give faith to truth and see its evident reality. |
| Tx:17.79 | changeless can you now withhold from it. Your release is certain. | Give as you have received. And demonstrate that you have risen far |
| Tx:18.9 | relationship. Let Him bring it here, where you would have it be. | Give Him but a little faith in each other, to help Him show you that |
| Tx:18.13 | offered you in your holy relationship. Accept it here, and you will | give as you have accepted. The peace of God is given you with the |
| Tx:18.26 | of your eyelids, closed so long, has not yet been sufficient to | give you confidence in yourselves, so long despised. You go toward |
| Tx:18.29 | light of your relationship, is your need for salvation. Would I not | give you what you gave to me? For when you joined each other, you |
| Tx:18.31 | your advance to Heaven. When such great light has joined with you to | give the little spark of your desire the power of God Himself, can |
| Tx:18.32 | that you realize that you cannot do more. Do not attempt to | give the Holy Spirit what He does not ask, or you will add the ego |
| Tx:18.32 | is your realization that you need do so little that enables Him to | give so much. |
| Tx:18.38 | Him Whose function is release. Do not assume His function for Him. | Give Him but what He asks, that you may learn how little is your part |
| Tx:18.39 | you need do. [You find it difficult to accept the idea that you need | give so little to receive so much.] And it is very hard for you to |
| Tx:18.39 | Salvation is easy just because it asks nothing that you cannot | give right now. |
| Tx:18.40 | have become the arbiter of what is possible and remain unwilling to | give place to One Who knows. The whole belief in orders of difficulty |
| Tx:18.50 | What could God | give but knowledge of Himself? What else is there to give? The belief |
| Tx:18.50 | What could God give but knowledge of Himself? What else is there to | give? The belief that you could give and get something else, |
| Tx:18.50 | of Himself? What else is there to give? The belief that you could | give and get something else, something outside yourself, has cost you |
| Tx:18.75 | on their one Creator for everything and needing the whole to | give them any meaning, for by themselves they do mean nothing. Nor |
| Tx:18.78 | encompassing only to preserve and keep complete what it would | give. In your tiny kingdom, you have so little! Should it not, then, |
| Tx:18.79 | offering rest to those who lost their way and wander in the dust. | Give them a place of refuge, prepared by love for them where once a |
| Tx:18.82 | barriers you hold against each other. And you will not be able to | give love welcome separately. You could no more know God alone than |
| Tx:18.83 | has come to you and would welcome you. He has waited long to | give you this. Receive it now of Him, for He would have you know Him. |
| Tx:18.85 | This is the little part of you, you think you stole from Heaven. | Give it back to Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost |
| Tx:19.13 | Your holy relationship, with its new purpose, offers you faith to | give unto each other. Your faithlessness had driven you apart, and so |
| Tx:19.17 | guilty and will forever so remain unless a mind not part of it can | give it absolution. Sin calls for punishment as error for correction, |
| Tx:19.33 | making another will which could attack His Will and overcome it and | give His Son a will apart from His and stronger. And each part of |
| Tx:19.34 | You will be healed of sin and all its ravages the instant that you | give it no power over each other. And you will help each other |
| Tx:19.37 | extends from deep inside yourselves to embrace all the Sonship and | give it rest, it will encounter many obstacles. Some of them you will |
| Tx:19.38 | You will not wait to | give him this, for you will call to him and he will answer you, |
| Tx:19.38 | in your call the Call of God. And you will draw him in and | give him rest, as it was given you. All this will you do. Yet the |
| Tx:19.57 | that it can get you what you want. While you believe that it can | give you pleasure, you will also believe that it can bring you pain. |
| Tx:19.64 | you have joined the limitless? The end of guilt is in your hands to | give. Would you stop now to look for guilt in each other? |
| Tx:19.68 | Your little part is but to | give the Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the |
| Tx:19.69 | in its patience, and wholly loving. It will accept you wholly and | give you peace. Yet it can unite only with what already is at peace |
| Tx:19.70 | the seeds of faithlessness, but only if you ask of it what it cannot | give. Can your mistake be reasonable grounds for depression and |
| Tx:19.70 | in what is faithful. And the correction of your mistake will | give you grounds for faith. |
| Tx:19.88 | holy Presence of the One given to you to be the Source of judgment. | Give it to Him to judge for you, and say: |
| Tx:19.102 | in him the power to forgive your sins, as you for him. Neither can | give it to himself alone. And yet your savior stands beside each one. |
| Tx:19.103 | when only he can offer it to you? For his redemption, he will | give you yours as surely as God created every living thing and loves |
| Tx:19.103 | surely as God created every living thing and loves it. And he will | give it truly, for it will be both offered and received. |
| Tx:19.104 | of you what you received of him.] Redemption has been given you to | give each other, and thus receive it. Whom you forgive is free, and |
| Tx:19.104 | other, and thus receive it. Whom you forgive is free, and what you | give you share. Forgive the sins your brother thinks he has committed |
| Tx:19.106 | Give each other faith, for faith and hope and mercy are yours to | |
| Tx:19.106 | Give each other faith, for faith and hope and mercy are yours to | give. Into the hands that give the gift is given. Look on your |
| Tx:19.106 | for faith and hope and mercy are yours to give. Into the hands that | give the gift is given. Look on your brother, and see in him the gift |
| Tx:19.106 | would receive. It is almost Easter, the time of resurrection. Let us | give redemption to each other and share in it that we may rise as one |
| Tx:19.107 | Free your brother here, as I freed you. | Give him the self-same gift, nor look upon him with condemnation of |
| Tx:19.109 | so will his offering be seen and so received. The crucified | give pain because they are in pain. But the redeemed give joy because |
| Tx:19.109 | The crucified give pain because they are in pain. But the redeemed | give joy because they have been healed of pain. Everyone gives as he |
| Tx:20.2 | thorns in one hand and lilies in the other, uncertain which to | give. Join now with me and throw away the thorns, offering the lilies |
| Tx:20.6 | can value, and only the mind decides on what it would receive and | give. And every gift it offers depends on what it wants. It will |
| Tx:20.11 | greatest power for the undoing of illusion that God Himself could | give. For what God gave the Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son |
| Tx:20.15 | the open door of Heaven, and recognize the home that called to you. | Give joyously to one another the freedom and the strength to lead you |
| Tx:20.24 | did it make you? Did you meet with joy to bless the Son of God and | give him thanks for all the happiness which he held out to you? Did |
| Tx:20.24 | its attainment of the one thing that still would have it be unholy. | Give it no power to adjust the means and end. |
| Tx:20.28 | Nothing can hurt you unless you | give it the power to do so. For you give power as the laws of this |
| Tx:20.28 | Nothing can hurt you unless you give it the power to do so. For you | give power as the laws of this world interpret giving—as you give, |
| Tx:20.28 | you give power as the laws of this world interpret giving—as you | give, you lose. It is not up to you to give power at all. Power is of |
| Tx:20.28 | interpret giving—as you give, you lose. It is not up to you to | give power at all. Power is of God, given by Him and reawakened by |
| Tx:20.28 | by Him and reawakened by the Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you | give, you gain. He gives no power to sin, and therefore it has none; |
| Tx:20.30 | insane laws were made to guarantee that you would make mistakes and | give them power over you by accepting their results as your just due. |
| Tx:20.31 | experience only its results. Their power is of God, and they will | give it only to what God has given to share with them. Nothing but |
| Tx:20.32 | The sinless | give as they received. See, then, the power of sinlessness within |
| Tx:20.38 | has the power to hold the unity of the Son of God together. You | give to one another for everyone, and in your gift is everyone made |
| Tx:20.38 | is everyone made glad. Forget not Who has given you the gifts you | give, and through your not forgetting this will you remember Who gave |
| Tx:20.38 | not forgetting this will you remember Who gave the gifts to Him to | give to you. |

| Tx:20.60 | the goal, the Holy Spirit indeed asked little. He asks no more to | give the means as well. The means are second to the goal. And when |
| Tx:20.69 | see your brother sinless that Christ may rise before your vision and | give you joy. And place no value on your brother's body, which holds |
| Tx:20.76 | looks within to find itself and then looks out. All meaning that you | give the world outside must thus reflect the sight you saw within; or |
| Tx:21.2 | to accept as yours. And if this is its meaning, then the power to | give it joy must lie within you.] |
| Tx:21.4 | which way leads to darkness, which to light. Judgment will always | give you false directions, but vision shows you where to go. Why |
| Tx:21.17 | gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to | give yourself. For by this gift is given you the power to release |
| Tx:21.17 | this gift is given you the power to release your savior that he may | give salvation unto you. |
| Tx:21.18 | offering. Withhold it, and you keep the world as now you see it. | Give it away, and everything you see goes with it. Never was so much |
| Tx:21.20 | Perhaps you do not see the need for you to | give this little offering. Look closer, then, at what it is. And very |
| Tx:21.22 | The Holy Spirit can | give you faith in holiness and vision to see it easily enough. But |
| Tx:21.31 | to place equal faith in opposite directions. What faith you | give to sin you take away from holiness. And what you offer holiness |
| Tx:21.34 | vision of a holy relationship is all you want to see. Then will you | give your faith to holiness, desiring and believing in it because of |
| Tx:21.37 | Join your awareness to what has been already joined. The faith you | give each other can accomplish this. For He Who loves the world is |
| Tx:21.40 | You can have faith in it to serve the Holy Spirit's goal and | give it power to serve as means to help the blind to see. But in |
| Tx:21.52 | reason understand what reason is or grasp the information it would | give? All sorts of questions may arise in it, but if the basic |
| Tx:21.59 | the help you call for, you will not believe that it is yours to | give. And so you will not give it, thus maintaining the belief. For |
| Tx:21.59 | you will not believe that it is yours to give. And so you will not | give it, thus maintaining the belief. For uncorrected error of any |
| Tx:21.67 | what you must be. And being one with It, it must be given you to | give what It has given and gives still. Spend but an instant in the |
| Tx:21.67 | Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of what is given you to | give your brother, and learn with him what has been given both of |
| Tx:21.67 | your brother, and learn with him what has been given both of you. To | give is no more blessed than to receive. But neither is it less. |
| Tx:21.88 | all that he really wants. Yet what he is uncertain of, God cannot | give. For he does not desire it while he remains uncertain, and God's |
| Tx:22.18 | time. Yet if the change be real and not imagined, illusions must | give way to truth and not to other dreams that are but equally |
| Tx:22.22 | who are the same will not decide alone nor differently. Either you | give each other life or death; either you are each other's savior or |
| Tx:22.26 | your holy relationship is there. For what He gave the Holy Spirit to | give to you, He gave. Would you not look upon the savior that has |
| Tx:22.26 | Receive of him what God has given him for you, not what you tried to | give yourself. |
| Tx:22.32 | fragment of the whole, without the meaning that the whole would | give. And yet mistakes, regardless of their form, can be corrected. |
| Tx:22.37 | holy relationship as what it is—a common state of mind, where both | give errors gladly to correction that both may happily be healed as |
| Tx:22.44 | is the function of a holy relationship—to receive together and | give as you received. Standing before the veil, it still seems |
| Tx:22.56 | let be laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you | give the Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are now His |
| Tx:22.58 | serve it willingly, for what the Holy Spirit does with the gifts you | give each other, to whom He offers them, and where and when is up to |
| Tx:22.59 | function. Leave this to Him. Let your concern be only that you | give to Him that which can be extended. Save no dark secrets that He |
| Tx:23.4 | Think what a happy world you walk with truth beside you! Do not | give up this world of freedom for a little sigh of seeming sin nor |
| Tx:23.27 | Yet all the other laws must lead to this. For enemies do not | give willingly to one another, nor would they seek to share the |
| Tx:23.30 | belongs. He would deprive you of the secret ingredient which would | give meaning to your life. The substitute for love, born of your |
| Tx:23.33 | from salvation. How lovely do the laws of fear make death appear! | Give thanks unto the hero on love's throne, who saved the Son of God |
| Tx:23.40 | If not, you walk alone. Ask, then, your Friend to join with you and | give you certainty of where you go. |
| Tx:23.42 | through you to your brother? The wrapping does not make the gift you | give. An empty box, however beautiful and gently given, still |
| Tx:23.42 | Withhold forgiveness from your brother, and you attack him. You | give him nothing and receive of him but what you gave. |
| Tx:23.43 | is to accept but part of what you want—to take a little and | give up the rest. Salvation gives up nothing. It is complete for |
| Tx:24.9 | of any kind between you? Look fairly at whatever makes you | give each other only partial welcome or would let you think that you |
| Tx:24.17 | what never was, nor hear what makes no sound. Is it a sacrifice to | give up nothing and to receive the love of God forever? |
| Tx:24.19 | you made on him has taken from him the gift that God would have him | give to you. His need to give it is as great as yours to have it. Let |
| Tx:24.19 | from him the gift that God would have him give to you. His need to | give it is as great as yours to have it. Let him forgive you all your |
| Tx:24.22 | Give him but what he has, remembering God gave Himself to both of you | |
| Tx:24.26 | And so he calls it “unforgivable” and makes it sin. How can he then | give his forgiveness wholly, when he would not receive it for |
| Tx:24.27 | would protect what God created not. And yet this idol that seems to | give you power has taken it away. For you have given your brother's |
| Tx:24.31 | to mar your rest. Forgive the Holy One the specialness He could not | give and which you made instead. |
| Tx:24.32 | see the savior God gave to you that you might look on him and | give him back his birthright. It is yours. |
| Tx:24.37 | in them that you would keep the gift your Father asks from Him and | give it there instead? Given to Him, the universe is yours. Offered |
| Tx:24.38 | would be its friend. Your brother's sins would justify itself and | give it meaning that the truth denies. All that is real proclaims his |
| Tx:24.41 | belong together, and the whole contributes nothing to the parts to | give them meaning. |
| Tx:24.47 | His Son could never will that you be brotherless. And would He | give a brother unto you except he be as perfect as yourself and just |
| Tx:24.58 | must be that He has given you a part of Him to save from pain and | give you happiness. And never doubt but that your specialness will |
| Tx:24.65 | a frame of holiness around him that the truth may shine on him and | give you safety from decay. |
| Tx:24.67 | it what it is for you. It has no meaning of itself, yet you can | give reality to it according to the purpose which you serve. Here you |
| Tx:25.21 | You need no forgiveness, for the wholly pure have never sinned. | Give then what He has given you that you may see His Son as one and |
| Tx:25.21 | Nor believe that all His praise is given not to you. For what you | give is His, and giving it you learn to understand His gift to you. |
| Tx:25.21 | is His, and giving it you learn to understand His gift to you. And | give the Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the Son |
| Tx:25.22 | to your brother. See not in him the sinfulness he sees, but | give him honor that you may esteem yourself and him. To each of you |
| Tx:25.40 | have it. So must it remain useless to both. Together, it will | give to each an equal strength to save the other and save himself |
| Tx:25.42 | or to hell as you perceive him. But forget not this—the role you | give to him is given you, and you will walk the way you pointed out |
| Tx:25.62 | but this—a mad belief that God's insanity would make you sane and | give you what you want. That either God or you must lose to madness |
| Tx:25.63 | The Holy Spirit can use all that you | give to Him for your salvation. But He cannot use what you withhold, |
| Tx:25.63 | you would not learn it is your will to be without it. You need not | give it to Him wholly willingly, for if you could, you'd have no need |
| Tx:25.66 | your little payment to “atone” for all that you would keep and not | give up. So is the victim seen as partly you, with someone else by |
| Tx:25.70 | innocent in truth. In justice, He is bound to set them free and | give them all the honor they deserve and have denied themselves |
| Tx:25.71 | in justice and in love believe in your confusion you have much to | give? You are not asked to trust Him far. No further than what you |
| Tx:25.71 | than what you see He offers you and what you recognize you could not | give yourself. |
| Tx:25.72 | Because they are the same does mercy stand at God's right hand and | give the Son of God the power to forgive himself of sin. |
| Tx:25.75 | a witness unto his sinlessness and not his sin. How little need you | give the Holy Spirit that simple justice may be given you! |
| Tx:25.76 | that justice is the same for everyone? To take from one to | give another must be an injustice to them both, since they are equal |
| Tx:25.79 | To | give reluctantly is not to gain the gift because you are reluctant to |
| Tx:25.79 | given you. God's justice warrants gratitude, not fear. Nothing you | give is lost to you or anyone, but cherished and preserved [for you] |
| Tx:25.84 | entitled to His gift of healing and deliverance and peace. To | give a problem to the Holy Spirit to solve for you means that you |
| Tx:25.86 | to take forgiveness for yourself. The miracle that you receive, you | give. Each one becomes an illustration of the law on which salvation |
| Tx:26.9 | ensure the door be opened that he may come forth to shine on you and | give you back the gift of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the |
| Tx:26.14 | You who believe it safe to | give but some mistakes to be corrected while you keep the others to |
| Tx:26.15 | Spirit be content until it is received by everyone. For what you | give to Him is everyone's, and by your giving it can He ensure that |
| Tx:26.24 | are but one. And in the recognition this is so lies the ability to | give up all attempts to choose between them and to make them |
| Tx:26.24 | has been withdrawn from what was never true, can it be hard to | give it up and choose what must be true? |
| Tx:26.41 | This terrible illusion was denied in but the time it took for God to | give His answer to illusion for all time and every circumstance. And |
| Tx:26.44 | ones which he prefers and find the safety that the truth alone can | give? Who can believe illusions are the same and still maintain that |
| Tx:26.54 | your brother and yourself. They limit you to time and place and | give a little space to you, another little space to him. This |
| Tx:26.83 | and the freezing cold. And shall the Lord of Heaven and His Son | give less in gratitude for so much more? |
| Tx:26.84 | Where He dwells, His Son dwells with Him, never separate. And They | give thanks that They are welcome made at last. Where stood a cross |
| Tx:27.3 | The picture of yourself you offer him you show yourself and | give it all your faith. The Holy Spirit offers you to give to him a |
| Tx:27.3 | yourself and give it all your faith. The Holy Spirit offers you to | give to him a picture of yourself in which there is no pain and no |
| Tx:27.34 | and vacant will not need defense of any kind. For you will | give it overwhelming preference. Nor delay an instant in deciding |
| Tx:27.35 | of power which opposes nothing. Yet no other kind can be at all. | Give welcome to the Power beyond forgiveness and beyond the world of |
| Tx:27.48 | And being blessed, you will bring blessing. Life is given you to | give the dying world. And suffering eyes no longer will accuse, but |
| Tx:27.48 | blessing gave. The holy instant's radiance will light your eyes and | give them sight to see beyond all suffering and see Christ's face |
| Tx:27.75 | of counting up the hurts he gave. Forgive him his illusions and | give thanks to him for all the helpfulness he gave. And do not brush |
| Tx:28.7 | understand what they are for. Let not the cause that you would | give them now be what it was which made them what they were or seemed |
| Tx:28.17 | cause is given its effects. For sickness is a meaningless attempt to | give effects to causelessness and make it be a cause. |
| Tx:28.21 | cause, it has no purpose. You may cause a dream, but never will you | give it real effects. For that would change its cause, and it is this |
| Tx:28.31 | it is a wish to keep apart and not to join. And thus it seems to | give a cause to sickness which is not its cause. The purpose of the |
| Tx:28.37 | Accepting the Atonement for yourself means not to | give support to someone's dream of sickness and of death. It means |
| Tx:28.48 | as meaningless. The fear is gone from them because you did not | give them your support. Where fear has gone, there love must come |
| Tx:28.55 | not like, although it cannot hear. It suffers not the punishment you | give because it has no feeling. It behaves in ways you want but never |
| Tx:29.10 | loss, to find yourself in Heaven and in God? Until you realize you | give up nothing, until you understand there is no loss, you will have |
| Tx:29.14 | You do not see how much you now can | give because of everything you have received. Yet He Who entered in |
| Tx:29.20 | but the one who gives salvation? Thus he learns it must be his to | give. Unless he gives, he will not know he has, for giving is the |
| Tx:29.20 | strength could fail to understand this must be so. For who could | give unless he has, and who could lose by giving what must be |
| Tx:29.22 | is. Before this light the body disappears, as heavy shadows must | give way to light. The darkness cannot choose that it remain. The |
| Tx:29.30 | to be. He asks for help in every dream he has, and you have help to | give him if you see the function of the dream as He perceives its |
| Tx:29.35 | would understand how great the cost of holding anything God did not | give in minds that can direct the hand to bless and lead God's Son |
| Tx:29.40 | purpose for you and establish it as changeless and eternal. You can | give yourself a purpose that you do not have. But you can not remove |
| Tx:29.44 | he bestows upon the body—that it seek for what he lacks and | give him what would make himself complete. And thus he wanders |
| Tx:29.46 | that you can suffer lack, and lack is death. To sacrifice is to | give up and thus to be without and to have suffered loss. And by this |
| Tx:29.49 | you need but to decide you do not know the purpose of the world. You | give it goals it does not have, and thus do you decide what it is |
| Tx:29.57 | change, the peace of God, forever given to all living things, | give way to chaos, and the Son of God, as perfect, sinless and as |
| Tx:29.59 | Each worshiper of idols harbors hope his special deities will | give him more than other men possess. It must be more. It does not |
| Tx:29.60 | why would you seek for idols which would make of Heaven less, to | give you more than God bestowed upon your brother and on you as one |
| Tx:29.60 | you all there is. And to be sure you could not lose it, did He also | give the same to every living thing as well. And thus is every living |
| Tx:29.64 | has need of toys but children? They pretend they rule the world and | give their toys the power to move about and talk and think and feel |
| Tx:30.32 | that you keep in mind, and you will have the day you want and | give it to the world by having it yourself. Your judgment has been |
| Tx:30.32 | your decision for a happy day. And as you have received, so must you | give. |
| Tx:30.37 | This world awaits the freedom you will | give when you have recognized that you are free. But you will not |
| Tx:30.41 | power to complete the Son of God. What idol can be called upon to | give the Son of God what he already has? |
| Tx:30.42 | as God created him. What idol can he need to be himself? For can he | give a part of him away? What is not whole cannot make whole. But |
| Tx:30.53 | and understand that they are idols which but dance to vain desires. | Give them not your worship, for they are not there. Yet this is |
| Tx:30.56 | he is. What could God's plan for his salvation be, except a means to | give him to Himself? |
| Tx:30.65 | longer, for what lies ahead is all you ever wanted in your hearts. | Give up the world! But not to sacrifice. You never wanted it. What |
| Tx:30.72 | forgiveness is attack. And this is all the world can ever | give. It pardons “sinners” sometimes but remains aware that they have |
| Tx:30.91 | miracle touch not some dreams but keep their unreality obscure and | give to them reality instead. And Heaven gives no answer to the |
| Tx:30.94 | and afraid when you are tempted by a dream of what he is. But do not | give it power to replace the changeless in him in your sight of him. |
| Tx:31.10 | form of hate, each call to war. Yet you will recognize Him as you | give Him answer in the language that He calls. He will appear when |
| Tx:31.11 | beyond it that appeals for peace and joy. And all the world will | give you joy and peace. For as you hear, you answer. And behold! Your |
| Tx:31.16 | assuming it at times you want to let the follower in you arise and | give away the role of leadership. And this is what you made your |
| Tx:31.19 | The answer that I | give my brother is what I am asking for. And what I learn of him is |
| Tx:31.27 | you attack, for by attack do you assert that you are guilty and must | give as you deserve. And what can you deserve but what you are? If |
| Tx:31.27 | not believe that you deserved attack, it never would occur to you to | give attack to anyone at all. Why should you? What would be the gain |
| Tx:31.28 | itself. If you are sin, you lock the mind within the body, and you | give its purpose to its prison-house, which acts instead of it. A |
| Tx:31.69 | of yourself and blacken it with still another “crime.” You cannot | give yourself your innocence, for you are too confused about |
| Tx:31.73 | hope of change and keep it static and concealed within your mind. | Give it instead to Him Who understands the changes that it needs to |
| Tx:31.76 | and you away from him. The sword of judgment is the weapon which you | give to the illusion of yourself that it may fight to keep the space |
| Tx:31.77 | but the wish to stay in hell and misery? And what could this | give rise to but an image of yourself that can be miserable and |
| Tx:31.93 | with everyone you see, for otherwise you will behold it not. To | give this gift is how to make it yours. And God ordained in loving |
| Tx:31.95 | And as I would but do Your holy Will, so will they choose. And I | give thanks for them. Salvation's song will echo through the world |
| Tx:31.96 | toward the light that shines beyond in perfect constancy. | Give me my own, for they belong to You. And can You fail in what is |
| Tx:31.96 | for they belong to You. And can You fail in what is but Your Will? I | give You thanks for what my brothers are. And as each one elects to |
| W1:I.5 | them. You are asked only to use them. It is their use which will | give them meaning to you and show you they are true. Remember only |
| W1:5.10 | are disturbing you, regardless of the relative importance you may | give them. Apply the idea for today to each of them, using the name |
| W1:12.2 | What you see does not matter. You teach yourself this as you | give whatever your glance rests on equal attention and equal time. |
| W1:12.2 | attention and equal time. This is a beginning step in learning to | give them all equal value. |
| W1:18.1 | idea for today is another step in learning that the thoughts which | give rise to what you see are never neutral or unimportant. It also |
| W1:20.1 | you will not see if you regard yourself as being coerced and if you | give in to resentment and opposition. |
| W1:25.5 | It is crucial to your learning to be willing to | give up the goals you have established for everything. The |
| W1:32.1 | not the victim of the world you see because you invented it. You can | give it up as easily as you made it up. You will see it or not see |
| W1:39.3 | salvation of the world. What about your own salvation? You cannot | give what you do not have. A savior must be saved. How else can he |
| W1:39.7 | differently. And it is your blessing on them that will save you and | give you vision. |
| W1:43.2 | his awareness. Perception has no meaning. Yet does the Holy Spirit | give it a meaning very close to God's. Healed perception becomes the |
| W1:44.10 | And do not forget that they cannot hold you to the world unless you | give them the power to do so. |
| W1:47.1 | or control? What is there in you that can be counted on? What would | give you the ability to be aware of all the facets of any problem and |
| W1:52.4 | understand that I am trying to use time against God. Let me learn to | give the past away, realizing that in so doing I am giving up nothing. |
| W1:55.3 | of God and the love of His Son. It is my own attack thoughts which | give rise to this picture. My loving thoughts will save me from this |
| W1:55.3 | loving thoughts will save me from this perception of the world and | give me the peace God intended me to have. |
| W1:56.2 | and complete fulfillment are my inheritance. I have tried to | give my inheritance away in exchange for the world I see. But God has |
| W1:57.2 | me in this world. Only my wish to stay keeps me a prisoner. I would | give up my insane wishes and walk into the sunlight at last. |
| W1:63.2 | The Son of God looks to you for his redemption. It is yours to | give him, for it belongs to you. Accept no trivial purpose or |
| W1:63.2 | of you. You are asked to accept salvation that it may be yours to | give. |
| W1:66.8 | it is necessary to define God as something He is not. Love cannot | give evil, and what is not happiness is evil. God cannot give what He |
| W1:66.8 | Love cannot give evil, and what is not happiness is evil. God cannot | give what He does not have, and He cannot have what He is not. Unless |
| W1:66.10 | it must be the gift of the ego. Does the ego really have gifts to | give, being itself an illusion and offering only the illusion of |
| W1:70.2 | nothing outside yourself can save you; nothing outside yourself can | give you peace. But it also means that nothing outside yourself can |
| W1:71.12 | Give Him full charge of the rest of the practice period, and let Him | |
| W1:74.2 | finding it. The idea itself is wholly true. Therefore it cannot | give rise to illusions. Without illusions, conflict is impossible. |
| W1:75.9 | you to vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit never fails to | give the gift of sight to the forgiving. Believe He will not fail you |
| W1:75.11 | of an hour or so that today is a time for special celebration. | Give thanks for mercy and the Love of God. Rejoice in the power of |
| W1:76.10 | and nothing is replaced by something else. God's laws forever | give and never take. |
| W1:80.2 | recognized your only problem, opening the way for the Holy Spirit to | give you God's answer. You have laid deception aside and seen the |
| W1:83.4 | My perception of this does not change my function. This does not | give me a function other than the one God gave me. Let me not use |
| W1:83.4 | God gave me. Let me not use this to justify a function God did not | give me. |
| W1:88.5 | no laws but God's. I am constantly tempted to make up other laws and | give them power over me. I suffer only because of my belief in them. |
| W1:92.8 | The light of strength is constant, sure as love, forever glad to | give itself away because it cannot give but to itself. No one can ask |
| W1:92.8 | sure as love, forever glad to give itself away because it cannot | give but to itself. No one can ask in vain to share its sight, and |
| W1:92.10 | Let us | give 20 minutes twice today to join this meeting. Let yourself be |
| W1:95.10 | tolerance for weakness will enable us to overlook it, rather than | give it power to delay our learning. If we give it power to do this, |
| W1:95.10 | overlook it, rather than give it power to delay our learning. If we | give it power to do this, we are regarding it as strength and are |
| W1:95.12 | assurance, given to your mind with all the certainty that you can | give: |
| W1:95.20 | world to be at one with you. To everyone you meet today be sure to | give the promise of today's idea and tell him this: |
| W1:96.15 | the function that it sought to lose. Your Self will welcome it and | give it peace. Restored in strength, it will again flow out from |
| W1:96.17 | and will accept the gift. Think, then, how much is given unto you to | give this day, that it be given you! |
| W1:97.3 | sometimes a thousand years or more are saved. The minutes which you | give are multiplied over and over, for the miracle makes use of time |
| W1:97.4 | these ideas becomes a time which has no length and which has no end. | Give, then, these minutes willingly, and count on Him Who promised to |
| W1:97.5 | Give Him the minutes which He needs today to help you understand with | |
| W1:97.10 | accept this gift which you received of Him, increase its power, and | give it back to you. |
| W1:98.7 | Each hour today | give Him your tiny gift of but five minutes. He will give the words |
| W1:98.7 | Each hour today give Him your tiny gift of but five minutes. He will | give the words you use in practicing today's idea the deep conviction |
| W1:98.10 | five minutes that you spend with Him, He will accept your words and | give them back to you all bright with faith and confidence so strong |
| W1:98.10 | lose one chance to be the glad receiver of His gifts, that you may | give them to the world today. |
| W1:98.11 | Give Him the words, and He will do the rest. He will enable you to | |
| W1:99.18 | tells you you are one. Remind yourself of this between the times you | give five minutes to be shared with Him Who shares God's plan with |
| W1:100.10 | are His messenger today. And you must find what He would have you | give. |
| W1:101.9 | again to find the joy these thoughts will introduce into your mind. | Give these five minutes gladly to remove the heavy load you laid upon |
| W1:104.1 | of what you are. They come to you from God, Who cannot fail to | give you what He wills. Yet must there be a place made ready to |
| W1:105.1 | as we receive them. They are not like to the gifts the world can | give, in which the giver loses as he gives the gift; the taker is the |
| W1:105.3 | of the world you see. It strips all meaning from the gifts you | give and leaves you nothing in the ones you take. A major learning |
| W1:105.6 | that what completes Him must complete His Son as well. He cannot | give through loss. No more can you. Receive His gift of joy and peace |
| W1:105.11 | can today, but do not think that less is worthless when you cannot | give Him more. At least remember hourly to say the words which call |
| W1:105.11 | more. At least remember hourly to say the words which call on Him to | give you what He wills to give and wills you to receive. |
| W1:105.11 | to say the words which call on Him to give you what He wills to | give and wills you to receive. |
| W1:106.1 | it may seem to call; if you will not accept its petty gifts which | give you nothing that you really want; if you will listen with an |
| W1:106.9 | I will be still and listen to the truth. What does it mean to | give and to receive? |
| W1:106.12 | Today the holy Word of God is kept through your receiving it to | give away, so you can teach the world what giving means by listening |
| W1:106.13 | to the truth. I am the messenger of God today. My voice is His, to | give what I receive. |
| W1:107.8 | Today belongs to truth. | Give truth its due, and it will give you yours. You were not meant to |
| W1:107.8 | Today belongs to truth. Give truth its due, and it will | give you yours. You were not meant to suffer and to die. Your Father |
| W1:107.13 | Then let Him lead you gently to the truth which will envelop you and | give you peace so deep and tranquil that you will return to the |
| W1:107.14 | you will carry to the world. They will increase with every gift you | give of five small minutes, and the errors that surround the world |
| W1:108.7 | lesson in the obvious because it has results we cannot miss. To | give is to receive. Today we will attempt to offer peace to everyone |
| W1:108.9 | To | give and to receive are one in truth. I will receive what I am giving |
| W1:108.12 | what you asked. It might be helpful, too, to think of one to whom to | give your gifts. He represents the others, and through him you give |
| W1:108.12 | to give your gifts. He represents the others, and through him you | give to all. |
| W1:108.14 | To | give and to receive are one in truth. |
| W1:109.11 | rest together here, for thus our rest is made complete, and what we | give today we have received already. Time is not the guardian of what |
| W1:109.11 | today we have received already. Time is not the guardian of what we | give today. We give to those unborn and those passed by, to every |
| W1:109.11 | received already. Time is not the guardian of what we give today. We | give to those unborn and those passed by, to every Thought of God, |
| W1:110.2 | therefore all you need to let complete correction heal your mind and | give you perfect vision which will heal all the mistakes that any |
| W1:R3.3 | you are unwilling to devote the time to it which you are asked to | give. Do not deceive yourself in this. Unwillingness can be most |
| W1:R3.6 | Place the ideas within your mind and let it use them as it chooses. | Give it faith that it will use them wisely, being helped in its |
| W1:R3.6 | will not fail. The wisdom of your mind will come to your assistance. | Give direction at the start, and then lean back in quiet faith and |
| W1:R3.8 | you devote the first five minutes of the day to your review and also | give the last five minutes of your waking day to it. If this cannot |
| W1:R3.10 | not lie idly by between your longer practice periods. Attempt to | give your daily two ideas a brief but serious review each hour. Use |
| W1:R3.10 | one on the hour and the other one a half an hour later. You need not | give more than just a moment to each one. |
| W1:119.3 | [108] To | give and to receive are one in truth. I will forgive all things |
| W1:119.7 | To | give and to receive are one in truth. |
| W1:121.8 | minutes in the morning and at night another ten to learning how to | give forgiveness and receive forgiveness too. |
| W1:122.1 | What could you want forgiveness cannot | give? Do you want peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do you want |
| W1:122.4 | What would you want forgiveness cannot | give? What gifts but these are worthy to be sought? What fancied |
| W1:122.6 | all of Heaven waits for you within? Forgive and be forgiven. As you | give, you will receive. There is no plan but this for the salvation |
| W1:122.7 | now. It is the gift of God and not the world. The world can | give no gifts of any value to a mind which has received what God has |
| W1:122.10 | Morning and evening do we gladly | give a quarter of an hour to the search in which the end of hell is |
| W1:123.2 | self you thought you made to take the place of Him and His creation. | Give Him thanks today. |
| W1:123.3 | Give thanks that He has not abandoned you and that His Love forever | |
| W1:123.3 | His Love forever will remain shining on you, forever without change. | Give thanks as well that you are changeless, for the Son He loves is |
| W1:123.4 | we go to do what is appointed us to do. We do not go alone. And we | give thanks that in our solitude a Friend has come to speak the |
| W1:123.6 | Receive the thanks of God today, as you | give thanks to Him. For He would offer you the thanks you give, since |
| W1:123.6 | as you give thanks to Him. For He would offer you the thanks you | give, since He receives your gifts in loving gratitude and gives them |
| W1:123.8 | perfect is His gratitude to you. Remember hourly to think of Him and | give Him thanks for everything He gave His Son that he might rise |
| W1:124.1 | Today we will again | give thanks for our Identity in God. Our home is safe, protection |
| W1:124.2 | with God and with itself. How easily do errors disappear and death | give place to everlasting life. Our shining footprints point the way |
| W1:124.7 | we can save and heal accordingly. We have accepted and we now would | give, for we would keep the gifts our Father gave. Today we would |
| W1:124.8 | God. This is our first attempt at an extended period for which we | give no rules nor special words to guide your meditation. We will |
| W1:125.4 | Hear, holy Son of God, your Father speak. His Voice would | give to you His holy Word to spread across the world the tidings of |
| W1:125.5 | He has not waited until you return your mind to Him to | give His Word to you. He has not hid Himself from you while you have |
| W1:125.7 | Three times today, at times most suitable for silence, | give ten minutes set apart from listening to the world and choose |
| W1:126.3 | When you “forgive” a sin there is no gain to you directly. You | give charity to one unworthy merely to point out that you are better, |
| W1:126.5 | and sure. It is an eccentricity in which you sometimes choose to | give indulgently an undeserved reprieve. Yet it remains your right to |
| W1:126.6 | overt attack, without requiring correction in your mind. It cannot | give you peace as you perceive it. It is not a means for your release |
| W1:126.8 | to which you are accustomed. But the Help you need is there. | Give Him your faith today and ask Him that He share your practicing |
| W1:126.9 | Give 15 minutes twice today to the attempt to understand today's | |
| W1:126.12 | All that I | give is given to myself. The Help I need to learn that this is true |
| W1:127.7 | Let us together, then, be glad to | give some time to God today and understand there is no better use for |
| W1:127.8 | He Himself will place a spark of truth within your mind wherever you | give up a false belief, a dark illusion of your own reality and what |
| W1:127.9 | disappears before the timelessness of what you learn. Let us | give thanks today that we are spared a future like the past. Today we |
| W1:127.11 | and who came to learn what you must learn. And as he comes to mind, | give him this message from your Self: |
| W1:128.1 | that you can use in any way, nor anything at all that serves to | give you joy. Believe this thought, and you are saved from years of |
| W1:128.7 | Give it ten minutes rest three times today. And when your eyes are | |
| W1:129.10 | and can understand. A day of grace is given you today, and we | give thanks. This day we realize that what you feared to lose was |
| W1:130.7 | Six times today in thanks and gratitude we gladly | give five minutes to the thought which ends all compromise and doubt |
| W1:131.4 | the world cannot dictate the goal for which you search unless you | give it power to do so. Otherwise, you still are free to choose a |
| W1:132.3 | and release the future from your ancient fears, you find escape and | give it to the world. |
| W1:132.4 | within your mind. The world is nothing in itself. Your mind must | give it meaning. And what you behold upon it are your wishes, acted |
| W1:132.5 | to what was made already, hardly waiting for your thoughts to | give it meaning. Yet in truth you found exactly what you looked for |
| W1:132.13 | Release the world! Your real creations wait for this release to | give you fatherhood, not of illusions, but as God in truth. God |
| W1:133.6 | there is no compromise in what your choice must bring. It cannot | give you just a little, for there is no in-between. Each choice you |
| W1:134.15 | That this may be accomplished, let us | give a quarter of an hour twice today and spend it with the Guide Who |
| W1:135.6 | medicine, no care, and no concern at all. Defend its life, or | give it gifts to make it beautiful or walls to make it safe, and you |
| W1:135.23 | our minds. Today we will receive instead of plan, that we may | give instead of organize. And we are given truly, as we say: |
| W1:135.26 | It is hell that makes extravagant demands for sacrifice. You | give up nothing in these times today when undefended you present |
| W1:136.13 | to plan defenses which would alter it. Truth merely wants to | give you happiness, for such its purpose is. Perhaps it sighs a |
| W1:136.15 | giving welcome to the truth. This is our aim today. And we will | give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth to come to us and |
| W1:136.16 | apart from us. It merely waits for just this invitation which we | give today. We introduce it with a healing prayer to help us rise |
| W1:136.21 | a bodily identity which will attack the body, for the mind is sick. | Give instant remedy should this occur by not allowing your |
| W1:137.11 | they are healed and all the grace of healing it is given them to | give. What is opposed to God does not exist. And who accepts it not |
| W1:137.14 | prepared for such a gift. And so we will begin the day with this and | give ten minutes to these thoughts with which we will conclude today |
| W1:137.16 | through you this very day. And as you rest in quiet, be prepared to | give as you receive, to hold but what you give, and to receive the |
| W1:137.16 | in quiet, be prepared to give as you receive, to hold but what you | give, and to receive the Word of God to take the place of all the |
| W1:138.12 | the choice that we have made each hour in between. And now we | give the last five minutes of our waking day to the decision with |
| W1:R4.10 | to you through His Voice. Let each idea that you review that day | give you the gift which He has laid in it for you to have of Him. And |
| W1:R4.11 | but let them be the messages they are. We need no more than this to | give us happiness and rest and endless quiet, perfect certainty, and |
| W1:R4.12 | thanks to you who practice thus the keeping of His Word. And as you | give your mind to the ideas for the day again before you sleep, His |
| W1:143.2 | [126] All that I | give is given to myself. |
| W1:151.13 | each thought that comes to mind, remove the elements of dreams, and | give them back to you as clean ideas that do not contradict the Will |
| W1:151.14 | Give Him your thoughts, and He will give them back as miracles which | |
| W1:151.14 | Give Him your thoughts, and He will | give them back as miracles which joyously proclaim the wholeness and |
| W1:151.15 | Spend 15 minutes thus when you awake, and gladly | give another 15 more before you go to sleep. Your ministry begins as |
| W1:151.15 | sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you hear the Voice for God | give honor to God's Son. And everyone will share the thoughts with |
| W1:151.17 | we will hourly remember Him Who is salvation and deliverance. As we | give thanks the world unites with us and happily accepts our holy |
| W1:153.15 | thought as long as possible. Five minutes now becomes the least we | give to preparation for a day in which salvation is the only goal we |
| W1:153.15 | an hour is too short a time to spend with God. Nor will we willingly | give less at night in gratitude and joy. |
| W1:153.21 | Him. These are His gifts to you. Defenselessness is all you need to | give Him in return. You lay aside but what was never real to look on |
| W1:154.5 | receive the message that he brings. It is enough that he accept it, | give it to the ones for whom it is appointed, and fulfill his role in |
| W1:154.6 | for themselves that they become able to bring them further and to | give them everywhere that they were meant to be. Like earthly |
| W1:154.6 | receivers in the truest sense, receiving to prepare themselves to | give. |
| W1:154.7 | them by His authority. And so they gain by every message which they | give away. |
| W1:154.8 | become His messengers. You are appointed now. And yet you wait to | give the messages you have received, and so you do not know that they |
| W1:154.12 | lesson for today: we will not recognize what we receive until we | give it. You have heard this said a hundred ways, a hundred times, |
| W1:155.4 | If truth demanded they | give up the world, it would appear to them as if it asked the |
| W1:155.12 | your effort, of your love, and of your full intent? What way could | give you more than everything or offer less and still content the |
| W1:157.6 | vision of what you experience this day to light the world. We cannot | give experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in our |
| W1:158.2 | the world but has received it. It is not this knowledge which you | give, for that is what creation gave. All this cannot be learned. |
| W1:158.2 | gave. All this cannot be learned. What, then, are you to learn to | give today? Our lesson yesterday evoked a theme found early in the |
| W1:158.5 | The teacher does not | give experience because he did not learn it. It revealed itself to |
| W1:158.5 | to him at its appointed time. But vision is his gift. This he can | give directly, for Christ's knowledge is not lost because He has a |
| W1:158.5 | for Christ's knowledge is not lost because He has a vision He can | give to anyone who asks. The Father's Will and His are joined in |
| W1:158.8 | achieve it. It requires but the recognition that the world cannot | give anything that faintly can compare with this in value; nor set up |
| W1:158.8 | does not merely disappear when this has been perceived. And this you | give today—see no one as a body. Greet him as the Son of God he is, |
| W1:158.10 | Thus do you learn to | give as you receive. And thus Christ's vision looks on you as well. |
| W1:158.11 | comes, for that is not of time. Yet time has still one gift to | give in which true knowledge is reflected in a way so accurate its |
| W1:158.11 | seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts we | give, Christ's vision looks upon ourselves as well. |
| W1:159.1 | No one can | give what he has not received. To give a thing requires first you |
| W1:159.1 | No one can give what he has not received. To | give a thing requires first you have it in your own possession. Here |
| W1:159.1 | to possess a thing, it must be kept. Salvation teaches otherwise. To | give is how to recognize you have received. It is the proof that what |
| W1:159.2 | You understand that you are healed when you | give healing. You accept forgiveness as accomplished in yourself when |
| W1:159.2 | do you perceive that you are whole. There is no miracle you cannot | give, for all are given you. Receive them now by opening the |
| W1:159.4 | are born. It is their source, remaining with each miracle you | give and yet remaining yours. It is the bond by which the giver and |
| W1:159.8 | love with which He looks on them. And they become His messengers who | give as they received. |
| W1:159.10 | Behold the store of miracles set out for you to | give. Are you not worth the gift when God appointed it be given you? |
| W1:160.5 | here. And so I leave my home to one more like me than myself and | give him all I thought belonged to me.” Now is he exiled of |
| W1:160.9 | Him as a stranger, for they do not recognize themselves. Yet as they | give Him welcome, they remember. And He leads them gently home again |
| W1:160.10 | Not one does He forget. Not one He fails to | give you to remember that your home may be complete and perfect as it |
| W1:161.3 | made. And now it is specifics we must use in practicing. We | give them to the Holy Spirit that He may employ them for a purpose |
| W1:161.10 | in his hands is your salvation. Ask him but for this, and he will | give it to you. Ask him not to symbolize your fear. Would you request |
| W1:161.14 | Give me your blessing, holy Son of God. I would behold you with the | |
| W1:164.2 | you. Christ answers for you, echoing your Self, using your voice to | give His glad consent, accepting your deliverance for you. |
| W1:164.3 | answers in your name the call He hears. How quiet is the time you | give to spend with Him beyond the world. How easily are all your |
| W1:165.7 | and your certainty of Him. We count on God and not upon ourselves to | give us certainty. And in His Name we practice as His Word directs we |
| W1:166.12 | for you alone. What He has come to offer you, you now must learn to | give. This is the lesson that His giving holds, for He has saved you |
| W1:166.13 | The gifts are yours, entrusted to your care to | give to all who chose the lonely road you have escaped. They do not |
| W1:167.2 | feelings that are not supremely happy. It is the alarm to which you | give response of any kind that is not perfect joy. All sorrow, loss, |
| W1:167.5 | contains. In that they can go far beyond themselves. But they cannot | give birth to what was never given them. As they are made, so will |
| W1:167.5 | made, so will their making be. As they were born, so will they then | give birth. And where they come from, there will they return. |
| W1:167.6 | it has no source. For mind creates all things that are and cannot | give them attributes it lacks nor change its own eternal, mindful |
| W1:168.2 | despair, for in it lies remembrance of His Love. Would He not gladly | give the means by which His Will is recognized? His grace is yours by |
| W1:168.4 | God loves His Son. Request Him now to | give the means by which this world will disappear, and vision first |
| W1:169.13 | do not ask for the unaskable. We do not look beyond what grace can | give. For this we can give in the grace that has been given us. |
| W1:169.13 | We do not look beyond what grace can give. For this we can | give in the grace that has been given us. |
| W1:169.15 | By grace I live. By grace I am released. By grace I | give. By grace I will release. |
| W1:170.14 | us. We bring them Your salvation as we have received it now. And we | give thanks for them who render us complete. In them we see Your |
| W1:170.14 | our peace. Holy are we because Your holiness has set us free. And we | give thanks. Amen. |
| W1:R5.1 | We now review again. This time we are ready to | give more effort and more time to what we undertake. We recognize we |
| W1:R5.2 | and our holy minds be still, and speak to us. We have no words to | give to You. We would but listen to Your Word and make it ours. Lead |
| W1:R5.11 | me. For this alone I need—that you will hear the words I speak and | give them to the world. You are my voice, my eyes, my feet, my hands, |
| W1:174.3 | [158] Today I learn to | give as I receive. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:175.2 | [159] I | give the miracles I have received. God is but Love, and therefore so |
| W1:176.2 | [161] | Give me your blessing, holy Son of God. God is but Love, and |
| W1:I2.1 | It is experiencing this which makes it sure that you will | give your total willingness to following the way the course sets |
| W1:I2.2 | brings. But the experience of freedom and of peace that comes as you | give up your tight control of what you see speaks for itself. Your |
| W1:181.2 | you behold will change accordingly. Your vision now will shift to | give support to the intent which has replaced the one you held |
| W1:181.3 | Therefore in practicing today, we first let all such little focuses | give way to our great need to let our sinlessness become apparent. We |
| W1:181.10 | ahead nor backwards. We look straight into the present. And we | give our trust to the experience we ask for now. Our sinlessness is |
| W1:182.5 | His Father's house. You are His home as well. He will return. But | give Him just a little time to be Himself within the peace that is |
| W1:183.8 | Thus do we | give an invitation which can never be refused. And God will come and |
| W1:183.10 | the gifts of grace. You can escape all bondage of the world and | give the world the same release you found. You can remember what the |
| W1:183.11 | his claim to all his Father gave, is giving still, and will forever | give. He calls on Him to let all things he thought he made be |
| W1:184.1 | surrounding it. This space you lay between all things to which you | give a different name—all happenings in terms of place and time, |
| W1:184.8 | to what you call him, for his mind consents to take the name you | give him as his own. And thus his unity is twice denied, for you |
| W1:184.14 | to see beyond them. Now our sight is blessed with blessings we can | give as we receive. |
| W1:184.15 | And we are glad and thankful we were wrong. All our mistakes we | give to You, that we may be absolved of all effects our errors seemed |
| W1:184.15 | all effects our errors seemed to have. And we accept the truth You | give in place of every one of them. Your Name is our salvation and |
| W1:185.4 | cannot unite in dreams. They merely bargain. And what bargain can | give them the peace of God? Illusions come to take His place. And |
| W1:185.11 | Who could be unanswered who requests an answer which is his to | give? The peace of God is yours. |
| W1:186.10 | serene when you accept the function given you. The images you make | give rise to but conflicting goals, impermanent and vague, uncertain |
| W1:186.13 | need His Son perceives, although He sees them not. For Love must | give, and what is given in His Name takes on the form most useful in |
| W1:187.1 | No one can | give unless he has. In fact, giving is proof of having. We have made |
| W1:187.1 | this. No one can doubt that you must first possess what you would | give. It is the second phase on which the world and true perception |
| W1:187.2 | How is this possible? For it is sure that if you | give a finite thing away, your body's eyes will not perceive it |
| W1:187.2 | thoughts that make them. And you do not lack for proof that when you | give ideas away, you strengthen them in your own mind. Perhaps the |
| W1:187.3 | Ideas must first belong to you before you | give them. If you are to save the world, you first accept salvation |
| W1:187.5 | Give gladly. You can only gain thereby. The thought remains and grows | |
| W1:187.5 | conceives of them. There is a giver who retains, another who will | give as well. And both must gain in this exchange, for each will have |
| W1:187.6 | Never forget you | give but to yourself. Who understands what giving means must laugh at |
| W1:187.8 | blessing will correct it. Given first to you, it now is yours to | give as well. No form of sacrifice and suffering can long endure |
| W1:187.10 | innocence has joined us all as one, we stand in blessedness and | give as we receive. The Name of God is on our lips. And as we look |
| W1:188.3 | are given everyone, and everyone unites in giving thanks to you who | give and you who have received. |
| W1:188.4 | given and returned. To you, the giver of the gift, does God Himself | give thanks. And in His blessing does the light in you shine |
| W1:188.5 | of God can never be contained. Who recognizes it within himself must | give it. And the means for giving it are in his understanding. He |
| W1:188.6 | your eyes. The light within you is sufficient. It alone has power to | give the gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer world and let your |
| W1:190.8 | a cruel and a bitter place, where sorrow rules and little joys | give way before the onslaught of the savage pain that waits to end |
| W1:191.10 | has come in glory to redeem the lost, to save the helpless, and to | give the world the gift of his forgiveness. Who could see the world |
| W1:192.7 | met with thanks, and joyously accepted? We are one and therefore | give up nothing. But we have indeed been given everything by God. Yet |
| W1:193.2 | Thus he has a need for One Who can correct his erring sight and | give him vision that will lead him back to where perception ceases. |
| W1:193.10 | their power to release all minds from bondage? These are words which | give you power over all events which seem to have been given power |
| W1:193.15 | Give all you can and give a little more, for now we would arise in | |
| W1:193.15 | Give all you can and | give a little more, for now we would arise in haste and go unto our |
| W1:193.15 | we saved to settle by ourselves and kept apart from healing. Let us | give them all to Him Who knows the way to look upon them so that they |
| W1:193.16 | in forgiveness in the form established for the day. And try to | give it application to the happenings the hour brought, so that the |
| W1:194.2 | on it. You are saved, and your salvation thus becomes the gift you | give the world because you have received. |
| W1:194.6 | for today as the deliverance it really is, you will not hesitate to | give as much consistent effort as you can to make it be a part of |
| W1:195.5 | Therefore | give thanks, but in sincerity. And let your gratitude make room for |
| W1:195.6 | our function to complete the One Who is Himself completion. We | give thanks for every living thing, for otherwise we offer thanks for |
| W1:196.12 | holy peace of God. How kind and merciful is the idea we practice! | Give it welcome, as you should, for it is your release. It is indeed |
| W1:197.3 | gifts because they were not honored? It is you who honor them and | give them fitting thanks, for it is you who have received the gifts. |
| W1:197.5 | God blesses every gift you | give to Him and every gift is given Him because it can be given only |
| W1:197.6 | Withdraw the gifts you | give, and you will think that what is given you has been withdrawn. |
| W1:197.9 | Give thanks as you receive it. Be you free of all ingratitude to | |
| W1:197.9 | makes your Self complete. And from this Self is no one left outside. | Give thanks for all the countless channels which extend this Self. |
| W1:198.14 | is perfect in his holiness. He needs no thoughts of mercy. Who could | give him gifts when everything is his? And who could dream of |
| W1:198.15 | that He Who brought us here will not forsake us now. For He would | give to us the gift that God has given us through Him today. Now is |
| W1:199.5 | idea. And would you be exempt from the acceptance of the gifts you | give? |
| W1:199.7 | Let love replace their fears through you. Accept salvation now, and | give your mind to Him Who calls to you to make this gift to Him. For |
| W1:199.7 | mind to Him Who calls to you to make this gift to Him. For He would | give you perfect freedom, perfect joy, and hope that finds its full |
| W1:R6.1 | day, and practice it as often as is possible. Besides the time we | give morning and evening, which should not be less than 15 minutes, |
| W1:R6.1 | for salvation, if it were learned truly. Each would be enough to | give release to you and to the world from every form of bondage and |
| W1:R6.10 | expressions for specific thoughts to aid your practicing. Instead we | give these times of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, |
| W1:206.1 | am entrusted with the gifts of God because I am His Son. And I would | give His gifts where He intended them to be. I am not a body. I am |
| W1:215.1 | The Holy Spirit is my only Guide. He walks with me in love. And I | give thanks to Him for showing me the way to go. I am not a body. I |
| W1:217.1 | [197] It can be but my gratitude I earn. Who should | give thanks for my salvation but myself? And how but through |
| W2:I.6 | I am so close to you we cannot fail. Father, we | give these holy times to You in gratitude to Him Who taught us how to |
| W2:I.11 | while, preceding one of the holy and blessed instants in the day. We | give the first of these instructions now. |
| W2:221.1 | Father, I come to You today to seek the peace that You alone can | give. I come in silence. In the quiet of my heart, the deep recesses |
| W2:224.1 | wholly beneficent and free from guilt that Heaven looks to it to | give it light. It lights the world as well. It is the gift my Father |
| W2:224.1 | world as well. It is the gift my Father gave me, the one as well I | give the world. There is no gift but this that can be either given or |
| W2:227.1 | and did not affect my own reality at all by my illusions. Now I | give them up and lay them down before the feet of truth, to be |
| W2:WS.5 | From here we | give salvation to the world, for it is here salvation was received. |
| W2:233.1 | Father, I | give You all my thoughts today. I would have none of mine. In place |
| W2:233.1 | all my thoughts today. I would have none of mine. In place of them, | give me Your own. I give You all my acts as well, that I may do Your |
| W2:233.1 | I would have none of mine. In place of them, give me Your own. I | give You all my acts as well, that I may do Your will instead of |
| W2:233.2 | we have one Guide to lead us on. And as we walk together, we will | give this day to Him with no reserve at all. This is His day. And so |
| W2:234.2 | lose the memory of You and of Your Love. We recognize our safety and | give thanks for all the gifts You have bestowed on us, for all the |
| W2:236.1 | whatever purpose I perceive in it. My mind can only serve. Today I | give its service to the Holy Spirit to employ as He sees fit. I thus |
| W2:238.1 | indeed. And I must be steadfast in holiness as well, that You would | give Your Son to me in certainty that He is safe Who still is part of |
| W2:240.2 | How foolish are our fears! Would You allow Your Son to suffer? | Give us faith today to recognize Your Son and set him free. Let us |
| W2:WIW.4 | it. Hear His Voice alone in all that speaks to you. And let Him | give you peace and certainty, which you have thrown away but Heaven |
| W2:242.1 | to make no choices for me but the ones that lead to God. This day I | give to Him, for I would not delay my coming home, and it is He Who |
| W2:242.2 | And so we | give today to You. We come with wholly open minds. We do not ask for |
| W2:242.2 | open minds. We do not ask for anything that we may think we want. | Give us what You would have received by us. You know all our desires |
| W2:242.2 | received by us. You know all our desires and our needs. And You will | give us everything we want and that will help us find the way to You. |
| W2:245.1 | everyone I meet. I bring it to the desolate and lonely and afraid. I | give Your peace to those who suffer pain or grieve for loss or think |
| W2:245.2 | And so we go in peace. To all the world we | give the message that we have received. And thus we come to hear the |
| W2:251.2 | And for that peace, our Father, we | give thanks. What we denied ourselves You have restored, and only |
| W2:255.1 | cares and must remain forever in the peace of Heaven. In his name I | give today to finding what my Father wills for me, accepting it as |
| W2:262.1 | I perceive a thousand forms in what remains as one? Why should I | give this one a thousand names, when only one suffices? For Your Son |
| W2:270.1 | this world! Yet how much more will I perceive in it than sight can | give. The world forgiven signifies Your Son acknowledges his Father, |
| W2:273.1 | more than satisfied to learn how such a day can be achieved. If we | give way to a disturbance, let us learn how to dismiss it and return |
| W2:274.1 | Father, today I would let all things be as You created them and | give Your Son the honor due his sinlessness, the love of brother to |
| W2:274.2 | A special blessing comes to us today from Him Who is our Father. | Give this day to Him and there will be no fear today because the day |
| W2:275.2 | speak, and what to say to him, what thoughts to think, what words to | give the world. The safety that I bring is given me. Father, Your |
| W2:279.2 | I will accept Your promises today and | give my faith to them. My Father loves the Son Whom He created as His |
| W2:280.2 | Today let me | give honor to Your Son, for thus alone I find the way to You. Father, |
| W2:280.2 | on the Son You love and You created limitless. The honor that I | give to him is Yours, and what is Yours belongs to me as well. |
| W2:286.2 | The stillness of today will | give us hope that we have found the way and traveled far along it to |
| W2:295.2 | My Father, Christ has asked a gift of me, and one I | give that it be given me. Help me to use the eyes of Christ today and |
| W2:297.1 | Forgiveness is the only gift I | give because it is the only gift I want, and everything I give I give |
| W2:297.1 | gift I give because it is the only gift I want, and everything I | give I give myself. This is salvation's simple formula. And I, who |
| W2:297.1 | I give because it is the only gift I want, and everything I give I | give myself. This is salvation's simple formula. And I, who would be |
| W2:300.2 | what to do to be restored to Heaven and our true Identity. And we | give thanks today the world endures but for an instant. We would go |
| W2:306.2 | with empty hands and open hearts and minds, asking but what You | give. We cannot make an offering sufficient for Your Son. But in Your |
| W2:307.1 | happiness, and only Yours exists. If I would have what only You can | give, I must accept Your will for me and enter into peace where |
| W2:308.1 | The birth of Christ is now, without a past or future. He has come to | give His present blessing to the world, restoring it to timelessness |
| W2:WILJ.4 | God acknowledges as His. Be not afraid of this. Salvation asks you | give it welcome. And the world awaits your glad acceptance, which |
| W2:316.1 | As every gift my brothers | give is mine, so every gift I give belongs to me. Each one allows a |
| W2:316.1 | As every gift my brothers give is mine, so every gift I | give belongs to me. Each one allows a past mistake to go and leave no |
| W2:322.1 | tried to hide, awaiting me in shining welcome and in readiness to | give God's ancient messages to me. His memory abides in every gift |
| W2:322.2 | And so I cannot sacrifice except in dreams. As You created me, I can | give up nothing You gave me. What You did not give has no reality. |
| W2:322.2 | You created me, I can give up nothing You gave me. What You did not | give has no reality. What loss can I anticipate except the loss of |
| W2:323.1 | is the only “sacrifice” You ask of Your beloved Son—You ask him to | give up all suffering, all sense of loss and sadness, all anxiety and |
| W2:327.1 | He has not abandoned me and loves me still, awaiting but my call to | give me all the help I need to come to Him. |
| W2:327.2 | to try them and to judge them not. Your word is one with You. You | give the means whereby conviction comes, and surety of Your abiding |
| W2:330.1 | forgiveness as our only function. Why should we attack our minds and | give them images of pain? Why should we teach them they are powerless |
| W2:334.2 | You are offering to his bewildered mind and frightened heart, to | give him certainty and bring him peace? Today I would behold my |
| W2:343.1 | cannot be loss. The gift of everything can but be gain. You only | give. You never take away. And You created me to be like You, so |
| W2:343.1 | so sacrifice becomes impossible for me as well as You. I too must | give, and so all things are given unto me forever and forever. As I |
| W2:343.1 | I am complete because I am Your Son. I cannot lose, for I can only | give. And everything is mine eternally. |
| W2:344.1 | dream? And what can an illusion offer me? Yet he whom I forgive will | give me gifts beyond the worth of anything on earth. Let my forgiven |
| W2:345.1 | a miracle reflects Your gifts to me, Your Son. And every one I | give returns to me, reminding me the law of love is universal. Even |
| W2:345.1 | a form which can be recognized and seen to work. The miracles I | give are given back in just the form I need to help me with the |
| W2:345.1 | the miracle is closer to Your gifts than any other gift which I can | give. Then let me give this gift alone today, which, born of true |
| W2:345.1 | to Your gifts than any other gift which I can give. Then let me | give this gift alone today, which, born of true forgiveness, lights |
| W2:347.1 | offered freedom, and I choose to claim Your gift today. And so I | give all judgment to the One You gave to me to judge for me. He sees |
| W2:349.1 | So would I liberate all things I see and | give to them the freedom that I seek. For thus do I obey the law of |
| W2:349.1 | them the freedom that I seek. For thus do I obey the law of love and | give what I would find and make my own. It will be given me because I |
| W2:349.1 | It will be given me because I have chosen it as the gift I want to | give. Father, Your gifts are mine. Each one that I accept gives me a |
| W2:349.1 | Your gifts are mine. Each one that I accept gives me a miracle to | give. And giving as I would receive, I learn Your healing miracles |
| W2:350.1 | only my forgiveness teaches me to let Your memory return to me and | give it to the world in thankfulness. |
| W2:353.1 | Father, I | give all that is mine today to Christ to use in any way that best |
| W2:357.1 | then in me. Your Voice instructs me patiently to hear Your Word and | give as I receive. And as I look upon Your Son today, I hear Your |
| W2:358.1 | want. You speak for God, and so You speak for me. And what You | give me comes from God Himself. Your Voice, my Father, then is mine |
| W2:360.1 | Father, it is Your peace that I would | give, receiving it of You. I am Your Son, forever just as You created |
| W2:FL.1 | our footsteps sure. To Him we leave these lessons, as to Him we | give our lives henceforth. For we would not return again to the |
| W2:361.1 | And if I need a word to help me, He will | give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He also give. And if I |
| W2:361.1 | me, He will give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He also | give. And if I need but stillness and a tranquil, open mind, these |
| W2:E.1 | troubles you, be certain that He has the answer and will gladly | give it to you if you simply turn to Him and ask it of Him. He will |
| W2:E.4 | difficulty and all pain that you may think is real. Nor will He | give you pleasures that will pass away, for He gives only the eternal |
| M:I.2 | you want to teach on the basis of what you want to learn. You cannot | give to someone else, and this you learn through teaching. Teaching |
| M:4.7 | such a demand would be. He can learn this only as he actually does | give up the valueless. Through this he learns that where he |
| M:4.19 | world speaks of. The teacher of God does not want anything he cannot | give away because he realizes it would be valueless to him by |
| M:4.19 | for His Son. These are the things that belong to him. These he can | give away in true generosity, protecting them forever for himself. |
| M:4.21 | on just some problems, remaining carefully limited for a time. To | give up all problems to one Answer is to reverse the thinking of the |
| M:5.3 | weakness is his strength. Now has he given himself what God would | give to him and thus entirely usurped the throne of his Creator. |
| M:5.5 | it is. Special agents seem to be ministering to him, yet they but | give form to his own choice. He chooses them to bring tangible form |
| M:5.9 | heal. It is not their voice that speaks the Word of God. They merely | give what has been given them. Very gently they call to their |
| M:6.3 | evaluate the outcome of their gifts. It is merely their function to | give them. Once they have done that, they have also given the |
| M:6.3 | also given the outcome, for that is part of the gift. No one can | give if he is concerned with the result of the giving. That is a |
| M:7.3 | nor is there more that he could do. By accepting healing, he can | give it. If he doubts this, let him remember Who gave the gift and |
| M:9.2 | This becomes easier and easier as the teacher of God learns to | give up his own judgment. The giving up of judgment, the obvious |
| M:12.5 | of God does not make this decision alone. To do that would be to | give the body another purpose from the one that keeps it holy. God's |
| M:13.1 | another thought system can take hold, is that it is a sacrifice to | give up the things of this world. What could this be but an illusion, |
| M:13.2 | both to realize and to accept the fact that the world has nothing to | give. What can the sacrifice of nothing mean? It cannot mean that you |
| M:13.4 | regret on giving up the pleasures of the world. Is it a sacrifice to | give up pain? Does an adult resent the giving up of children's toys? |
| M:13.7 | that sacrifice is total. There are no “half sacrifices.” You cannot | give up Heaven partially. You cannot be a little bit in hell. The |
| M:15.4 | your best efforts meet with lack of appreciation and even contempt, | give up these foolish thoughts. They are too small and meaningless to |
| M:16.2 | lack of structuring on their own part. What must they do to learn to | give the day to God? There are some general rules which do apply, |
| M:16.4 | an hour with closed eyes and accomplish nothing. One can as easily | give God only an instant, and in that instant join with Him |
| M:16.6 | see in dreams. It is not so. Your safety lies not there. What you | give up is merely the illusion of protecting illusions. And it is |
| M:16.10 | two aspects of one error and no more, he merely chooses to | give up all that he never had. And for this “sacrifice” is Heaven |
| M:17.2 | teacher and to pupil. How many times has it been emphasized that you | give but to yourself? And where could this be better shown than in |
| M:17.2 | need his aid? Here is his gift most clearly given him. For he will | give only what he has chosen for himself. And in this gift is his |
| M:17.8 | not lead to condemnation, for they do not really have the power to | give rise to guilt. And so they can be overlooked and thus forgotten |
| M:17.9 | to recognize its thought system is to look on nothing. Can nothing | give rise to anger? Hardly so. Remember then, teacher of God, that |
| M:23.1 | be received directly. Even the most advanced of God's teachers will | give way to temptation in this world. Would it be fair if their |
| M:23.4 | moment that the name is called to mind. Remembering His name is to | give thanks for all the gifts that God has given you. And gratitude |
| M:23.5 | be grateful to him? He has asked for love, but only that he might | give it to you. You do not love yourself. But in his eyes your |
| M:26.2 | do so. To those to whom such appearances would be frightening, they | give their ideas. No one can call on them in vain. Nor is there |
| M:26.2 | them. The time will come when this is understood. And meanwhile they | give all their gifts to the teachers of God who look to them for |
| M:29.7 | was created, so he is. In confidence I place you in His hands, and I | give thanks for you that this is so. |
| M:29.8 | reflects your holiness, for you are not alone and friendless. I | give thanks for you and join your efforts on behalf of God, knowing |

| Tx:1.70 | reversal of the Golden Rule rests. As these false underpinnings are | given up, the equilibrium is temporarily experienced as unstable. |
| Tx:1.88 | All His Children have His total love, and all His gifts are freely | given to everyone alike. “Except ye become as little children” means |
| Tx:2.1 | somewhat unusual since they are not the first definitions which are | given. Nevertheless, the fact that each of them does appear in the |
| Tx:2.12 | of man by God with free will because all loving creation is freely | given. Nothing in these statements implies any sort of level |
| Tx:2.14 | him. In reality, this is his only choice, because his free will was | given him for his own joy in creating the perfect. |

| Tx:2.100 | essentially a device by which all compromise in this respect can be | given up. It seems to be abolished by degrees because time itself |
| Tx:2.105 | magic in some form is virtually inevitable. His will to create was | given him by his own Creator, Who was expressing the same will in His |

| Tx:3.60 | lack, those who perceive have not totally accepted the Atonement and | given themselves over to truth. Perception is a separated state, and |
| Tx:3.67 | but only because He knows that it makes them unhappy. Souls were | given their true Authorship, but men preferred to be anonymous when |
| Tx:3.75 | and gave it freely to His creations. The symbolism here has been | given many interpretations, but you may be sure that any |
| Tx:3.80 | is conflictless. Your kingdom is not of this world because it was | given you from beyond this world. Only in this world is the idea of |
| Tx:4.4 | Repetition compulsions can be endless unless they are | given up by an act of will. Do not make the pathetic human error of |
| Tx:4.54 | repressed by the ego, is the declaration of your release. God has | given you everything. This is the one fact that means the ego does |
| Tx:4.62 | do not be deceived by it. Know it offers you nothing. When you have | given up this voluntary dispiriting, you will see how your mind can |
| Tx:4.97 | its function, but it cannot endow itself with functions it was not | given. That is why the mind cannot totally lose the ability to |
| Tx:5.6 | not lessen it. All of it is still yours, although all of it has been | given away. Further, if the person to whom you give it accepts it as |
| Tx:5.8 | Thoughts increase by being | given away. The more who believe in them, the stronger they become. |
| Tx:5.19 | One you made yourself and that one is not of God. But the other is | given you by God Who asks you only to listen to it. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:5.26 | Yet you have other devotions now. Your divided devotion has | given you the two voices, and you must choose at which altar you will |
| Tx:5.30 | aware of the fact that there is another way or another Voice. Having | given this invitation to the Holy Spirit, I could come to provide the |
| Tx:5.33 | of which it is a part. Therefore, it is strengthened by being | given away. It increases in you as you give it to your brothers. |
| Tx:5.40 | not an act, but a thought. Therefore, the idea of separation can be | given away, just as the idea of unity can. Either way, the idea will |
| Tx:5.44 | very understanding therapist except for yourself. That exception has | given you more than perception for others because of what you saw in |
| Tx:5.70 | also turn back to full creation the instant it has done so. Having | given up its thought disorder, the proper ordering of thought becomes |
| Tx:5.73 | your brothers. How else can the chance to claim it for yourself be | given you? What you do not understand is that the two voices speak |
| Tx:5.78 | to release you from fear. The part of your thought which you have | given to the ego will merely return to the Kingdom, where your whole |
| Tx:5.80 | His verdict will always be “Thine is the Kingdom” because He was | given you to remind you of what you are. |
| Tx:5.82 | truly give, because He is so truly blessed, and because He has been | given you so freely by God, you must give Him as you received Him. |
| Tx:6.1 | that [the attack was unjust, and] you are in no way responsible. | Given these three wholly irrational premises, the equally irrational |
| Tx:6.38 | it must shine outward to make you aware of it. The Holy Spirit was | given you with perfect impartiality, and only by perceiving Him |
| Tx:6.51 | question. The time that was spent on questioning in the dream has | given way to creation and to its eternity. |
| Tx:6.94 | mind outside it. What you have made has thus divided your will and | given you a sick mind which must be healed. Your vigilance against |

| Tx:7.35 | All abilities, then, should be | given over to the Holy Spirit, Who knows how to use them properly. He |
| Tx:7.37 | You do not want it. It is not a gift. It is nothing at all. God has | given you a gift which you both have and are. When you do not use it, |
| Tx:7.75 | The gift of life is yours to give because it was | given you. You are unaware of your gift, because you do not give it. |
| Tx:7.92 | God, and any totality must include God. Everything He created is | given all His power, because it is part of Him and shares His Being |
| Tx:7.99 | of mind and your recognition of what is in your mind depend at any | given moment on what you believe about your mind. Whatever these |
| Tx:7.103 | Projection of this kind is a confusion in motivation and, | given this confusion, trust becomes impossible. |

| Tx:7.110 | the Kingdom with this lesson in his heart has healed the Sonship and | given thanks to God. Everyone who learns this lesson has become the |
| Tx:7.111 | recognize His gift in anyone else, you have acknowledged what He has | given you. Nothing is as easy to perceive as truth. This is the |
| Tx:8.9 | to whom a Son of God should turn to find himself? The ego has never | given you a sensible answer to anything. Simply on the grounds of |
| Tx:8.16 | highest and to you, because He has so willed it. Ask and it shall be | given you, because it has already been given. Ask for light and learn |
| Tx:8.16 | it. Ask and it shall be given you, because it has already been | given. Ask for light and learn that you are light. If you want |
| Tx:8.19 | or lose sight of yourself. Whenever two Sons of God meet, they are | given another chance at salvation. Do not leave anyone without giving |
| Tx:8.23 | to suffer for a wrong decision, including you. That is why He has | given you the means for undoing it. Through His power and glory, all |
| Tx:8.49 | to me, because I asked it of Him and learned of what He had already | given. Our function is to function together, because apart from each |
| Tx:8.50 | You who are God's own treasure do not regard yourselves as valuable. | Given this belief, you cannot understand anything. I share with God |
| Tx:8.52 | What God has willed for you is yours. He has | given His Will to His treasure, whose treasure it is. Your heart lies |
| Tx:8.55 | is the service it can render God on behalf of the function He has | given it. |
| Tx:8.88 | do, and it is impossible that I could do things you cannot do. | Given this, and given this quite literally, there can be nothing |
| Tx:8.88 | is impossible that I could do things you cannot do. Given this, and | given this quite literally, there can be nothing which prevents you |
| Tx:8.98 | Giver for what you do not want, you are asking for what cannot be | given, because it was never created. It was never created, because it |
| Tx:8.109 | will ensure a response. Yet it is equally certain that no response | given by the Holy Spirit will ever be one which would increase fear. |
| Tx:9.11 | The Atonement is a lesson in sharing, which is | given you because you have forgotten how to do it. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:9.35 | wake them, their gratitude and their appreciation of what you have | given them will teach you its value. They will become the witnesses |
| Tx:9.38 | God's Will is your salvation. Would He not have | given you the means to find it? If He wills you to have it, He must |
| Tx:9.75 | His Mind. He will not limit your power to help them, because He has | given it to you. Do not be afraid of it, because it is your |
| Tx:9.88 | the chaotic is without meaning because it is without God. You have | given your peace to the gods you made, but they are not there to take |
| Tx:9.103 | created for you for the misery you have made for yourselves. God has | given you the means for undoing what you have made. Listen, and you |
| Tx:9.105 | Him. His is the only Fatherhood, and it is yours only because He has | given it to you. Your gifts to yourself are meaningless, but your |
| Tx:9.105 | but your gifts to your creations are like His because they are | given in His Name. That is why your creations are as real as His. Yet |
| Tx:10.10 | God has | given you a place in His Mind which is yours forever. Yet you could |
| Tx:10.10 | is yours forever. Yet you could keep it only by giving it, as it was | given you. Could you be alone there if it was given you because God |
| Tx:10.10 | giving it, as it was given you. Could you be alone there if it was | given you because God did not will to be alone? God's Mind cannot be |
| Tx:10.11 | Give, then, without limit and without end to learn how much He has | given you. Your ability to accept Him depends on your willingness to |
| Tx:10.13 | your will, be capable of this? Your will is His Life, which He has | given to you. Even in time you cannot live apart from Him, for sleep |
| Tx:10.21 | Father's be wholly joined. To have Him is to be like Him, and He has | given Himself to you. You who have God must be as God, for His |
| Tx:10.31 | anything, but you are saved for glory. Glory is your inheritance, | given your Soul by its Creator that you might extend it. Yet if you |
| Tx:10.51 | The ego believes that to accomplish its goal is happiness. But it is | given you to know that God's function is yours and happiness cannot |
| Tx:10.64 | without question as His own. Who, then, is your own? The Father has | given you all that is His, and He Himself is yours with them. Guard |
| Tx:10.65 | a part of equal value. God does not judge His blameless Son. Having | given Himself to him, how could it be otherwise? |
| Tx:10.66 | his own crucifixion, and you cannot assign to death whom God has | given eternal life. The dream of crucifixion still lies heavy on your |
| Tx:10.68 | and no measure. To God all things are possible. And to Christ it is | given to be like the Father. |
| Tx:11.19 | can defeat a Child of God in his purpose. For your purpose was | given you by God, and you must accomplish it because it is His Will. |
| Tx:11.24 | wrongly, and they are poor indeed! Because they are in need, it is | given you to help them since you are among them. Consider how |
| Tx:11.41 | is the Will of the Father. You pay no price for life, for that was | given you, but you do pay a price for death, and a very heavy one. If |
| Tx:11.52 | You need offer only undivided attention. Everything else will be | given you. For it is your will to learn aright, and nothing can |
| Tx:11.76 | overcome death for myself alone? And would eternal life have been | given me of the Father unless He had also given it to you? When you |
| Tx:11.76 | eternal life have been given me of the Father unless He had also | given it to you? When you learn to make me manifest, you will never |
| Tx:11.79 | He knows what it is. You who knew have forgotten, and unless He had | given you a way to remember, you would have condemned yourselves to |
| Tx:11.84 | The real world was | given you by God in loving exchange for the world you made and which |
| Tx:11.88 | that God's Son is not guilty. He deserves only love because he has | given only love. He cannot be condemned because he has never |
| Tx:11.92 | everything unworthy of the Son of God, for such was His mission, | given Him by God. And what God gives has always been. |
| Tx:12.15 | death is more valued than your living oneness, and what is | given you is not so dear as what you made. You are more afraid of God |
| Tx:12.22 | your request for pain, for suffering is not of His creation. Having | given you creation, He could not take it from you. He could but |
| Tx:12.33 | eternal. In this exchange it is extended, for it increases as it is | given. The other has many forms, for the content of individual |
| Tx:12.39 | not what you do can learn what insanity is and look beyond it. It is | given you to learn how to deny insanity and come forth from your |
| Tx:12.40 | and gladness is what we should offer Him. For every Son of God is | given you to whom God gave Himself. And it is God to Whom you must |
| Tx:12.43 | You have but two emotions, and one you made and one was | given you. Each is a way of seeing, and different worlds arise from |
| Tx:12.43 | arise from their different visions. See through the vision that is | given you, for through Christ's vision He beholds Himself. And seeing |
| Tx:12.43 | see as you look with Him, for His vision is His gift of love to you, | given Him of the Father for you. |
| Tx:12.51 | light that is offered you. For the light of perfect vision is freely | given as it is freely received and can be accepted only without |
| Tx:12.54 | is in you. Yet you will find it through its witnesses, for having | given light to them, they will return it. Everyone you see in light |
| Tx:12.55 | a light which this world cannot give. Yet you can give it, as it was | given you. And as you give it, it shines forth to call you from the |
| Tx:12.55 | find another. This other world is bright with love, which you have | given it. And here will everything remind you of your Father and His |
| Tx:12.57 | ensuring the real world for you when you wake. In your name He has | given for you and given you the gifts He gave. God's Son is still as |
| Tx:12.57 | world for you when you wake. In your name He has given for you and | given you the gifts He gave. God's Son is still as loving as his |
| Tx:12.66 | yours, being the gift of God unto His Son. Your one reality was | given you, and by it God created you as one with Him. |
| Tx:12.76 | for as it is my gift to you, so was it the Father's gift to me, | given me through His Spirit. The sound of it will banish sorrow from |
| Tx:13.4 | and knowing that mind is one. He is a Thought of God, and God has | given Him to you because He has no Thoughts He does not share. His |
| Tx:13.9 | Heaven. You are the witnesses to the Fatherhood of God, and He has | given you the power to create the witnesses to [yours, which is as |
| Tx:13.12 | and where it is invested determines its reward. For faith is always | given what is treasured, and what is treasured is returned to you. |
| Tx:13.21 | use them.] For by preempting for your own ends what you should have | given to Him, He cannot use them unto your release. No one who would |
| Tx:13.27 | Now it is | given you to heal and teach, to make what will be now. As yet it is |
| Tx:13.40 | this. Fear not the Holy Spirit will fail in what your Father has | given Him to do. The Will of God can fail in nothing. |
| Tx:13.51 | to defend and love. They will not be taken from him. But they can be | given up by him, for the Source of their undoing is in him. There is |
| Tx:13.63 | them, and they will not leave you asleep. The vision of Christ is | given the very instant that it is perceived. Where everything is |
| Tx:13.70 | asked of God's Son except by himself and of himself. Every chance | given him to heal is another opportunity to replace darkness with |
| Tx:13.72 | and accept the Cause of God as yours. The power that God has | given to His Son is his, and nothing else can His Son see or choose |
| Tx:13.74 | they do not believe that what they want is good. Yet will was | given them because it is holy and will bring to them all that they |
| Tx:13.81 | gracious is it to decide all things through Him Whose equal love is | given equally to all alike! He leaves you no one outside yourself, |
| Tx:13.88 | knowledge. For what He knows not cannot be and therefore cannot be | given. Ask not to be forgiven, for this has already been |
| Tx:14.6 | of you has a special part to play in the Atonement, but the message | given to each to share is always the same—God's Son is guiltless. |
| Tx:14.8 | The inheritance of the Kingdom is the right of God's Son, | given him in his creation. Do not try to steal it from him, or you |
| Tx:14.13 | holy ground. Remember for everyone your Father's power that He has | given him. Believe not that you cannot teach His perfect peace. Stand |
| Tx:14.29 | to Him it is so easy that it was accomplished the instant it was | given Him for you. Do not delay yourselves in your return to peace by |
| Tx:14.29 | in your return to peace by wondering how He can fulfill what God has | given Him to do. Leave that to Him Who knows. You are not asked to do |
| Tx:14.31 | You cannot see alone. Sharing perception with Him Whom God has | given you teaches you how to recognize what you see. It is the |
| Tx:14.32 | He is wholly faithful, for He shared with God the promise that was | given Him to share with you. |
| Tx:14.33 | however much or little valued, He will replace with the one promise | given unto Him to lay upon the altar to your Father and His Son. No |
| Tx:14.36 | there are you. Such is the truth. Nothing can change the knowledge | given you by God into unknowingness. Everything God created knows its |
| Tx:14.37 | the Son, for whom it was intended. To whom God gives Himself, He is | given. Your little gifts will vanish on the altar where He has placed |
| Tx:14.51 | anyone. There is no order of difficulty here. A call for help is | given help. |
| Tx:14.55 | you bring with you a light so powerful that what you see is | given meaning. The lonely journey fails because it has excluded what |
| Tx:14.59 | even dream of it. Can God learn how not to be God? And can His Son, | given all power by Him, learn to be powerless? What have you taught |
| Tx:14.66 | to teach yourself what you do not know, the Guide Whom God has | given you will speak to you. He will take His rightful place in your |
| Tx:15.19 | As long as you remain uncertain, it can be only because you have not | given complete release. And because of this, you have not given one |
| Tx:15.19 | have not given complete release. And because of this, you have not | given one single instant completely to the Holy Spirit. For when you |
| Tx:15.20 | And here it is, all in this instant, complete, accomplished, and | given wholly. |
| Tx:15.21 | experience yourself as not separate. Fear not that you will not be | given help in this. God's Teacher and His lesson will support your |
| Tx:15.26 | His Son, and His Son cannot be content with less than his Father has | given him. We asked you once before, “Would you be hostage to the ego |
| Tx:15.30 | poor appreciation of yourself and all the little offerings you have | given slip into nothingness. Holy Child of God, when will you learn |
| Tx:15.33 | unwilling to attempt to grasp for peace yourself, salvation will be | given you. Yet think not you can substitute your plan for His. |
| Tx:15.34 | rises above the stars and reaches even to Heaven because of what is | given it. |
| Tx:15.37 | His. I call you to fulfill your holy part in the plan that He has | given to the world for its release from littleness. God would have |
| Tx:15.42 | into a mind that has decided to oppose it. For the holy instant is | given and received with equal willingness, being the acceptance of |
| Tx:15.43 | none that you would keep. Innocence is not of your making. It is | given you the instant you would have it. Yet it would not be |
| Tx:15.65 | because there is no other love. This is the only love that is fully | given and fully returned. Being complete, it asks nothing. Being |
| Tx:15.85 | this shift entails, so you will become willing to make it permanent. | Given this willingness, it will not leave you, for it is permanent. |
| Tx:15.87 | in awareness, the recognition of relationships without limits is | given you. But to see this, it is necessary to give up every use the |
| Tx:15.87 | with all its might and will do so with the strength which you have | given it. |
| Tx:15.88 | your power unto creation, which is the only purpose for which it was | given you. Love would always give increase. Limits are demanded by |
| Tx:15.99 | the real price of not accepting this has been so great that you have | given God away rather than look at it. For if God would demand total |
| Tx:15.101 | try longer to keep apart your thoughts and the Thought that has been | given you. When they are brought together and perceived where they |
| Tx:16.15 | what it is and giving thanks for it? Honor the truth that has been | given you, and be glad you do not understand it. Miracles are natural |
| Tx:16.15 | for you, and do not turn away from all the witnesses that He has | given you to His reality. |
| Tx:16.18 | to see and hear them. This year, determine not to deny what has been | given you by God[. Awake and share it], for that is the only reason |
| Tx:16.19 | will give you everything that makes for happiness. You have never | given any problem to the Holy Spirit He has not solved for you, nor |
| Tx:16.20 | This is the year for the application of the ideas which have been | given you. For the ideas are mighty forces to be used and not held |
| Tx:16.37 | could never be complete. No specialness can offer you what God has | given and what you are joined with Him in giving. |
| Tx:16.69 | of your unwillingness for your release, His perfect willingness is | given you. Call upon Him, for Heaven is at His call. And let Him call |
| Tx:16.77 | What God has | given you is truly given and will be truly received. For God's gifts |
| Tx:16.77 | What God has given you is truly | given and will be truly received. For God's gifts have no reality |
| Tx:16.77 | because it is His Will to give. He gave the holy instant to be | given you, and it is impossible that you receive it not, because He |
| Tx:16.77 | teaches you is to remind you that you have received what God has | given you. |
| Tx:16.81 | Son of God is not Your will. And let us receive only what you have | given and accept but this into the minds which You created and which |
| Tx:17.6 | denied by both of you. And you will see forgiveness where you have | given it. |
| Tx:17.9 | of all in God's plan of Atonement. All else is learned, but this is | given, complete and wholly perfect. No one but Him Who planned |
| Tx:17.13 | It will give you the real world, trembling with readiness to be | given you. The eagerness of the Holy Spirit to give you this is so |
| Tx:17.14 | only the loving thoughts you gave in the past and those that were | given you. All the rest must be forgotten. Forgiveness is a selective |
| Tx:17.20 | hatred is remembered, yet there to come alive as the relationship is | given to Him Who gives it life and beauty. That is why Atonement |
| Tx:17.28 | that all that is meant is that He will restore to them the function | given them by God. The function you have given them is clearly not to |
| Tx:17.28 | to them the function given them by God. The function you have | given them is clearly not to make happy. But the holy relationship |
| Tx:17.35 | Look at the picture. Do not let the frame distract you. This gift is | given you for your damnation, and if you take it, you will believe |
| Tx:17.40 | a transformation of both pictures can at last occur. And each is | given its rightful place, when both are seen in relation to each |
| Tx:17.42 | where they are. They are in us through His ascendance. What He has | given is His. It shines in every part of Him as in the whole. The |
| Tx:17.47 | the goal more slowly, for the contrast would be obscured and the ego | given time to reinterpret each slow step according to its liking. |
| Tx:17.49 | His answer? You are not now wholly insane. Can you deny that He has | given you a most explicit statement? Now He asks for faith a little |
| Tx:17.54 | And it is impossible to deny yourself and recognize what has been | given and received by you. |
| Tx:17.56 | As you begin to recognize and accept the gifts you have so freely | given to each other, you will also accept the effects of the holy |
| Tx:17.67 | Only what you have not | given can be lacking in any situation. But remember this: the goal of |
| Tx:17.74 | is meant to be. The meaning which the Holy Spirit's purpose has | given it is also given to every situation. It calls forth just the |
| Tx:17.74 | be. The meaning which the Holy Spirit's purpose has given it is also | given to every situation. It calls forth just the same suspension of |
| Tx:17.76 | instant of every situation? For such is the gift of faith, freely | given wherever faithlessness is laid aside unused. And then the power |
| Tx:17.76 | What has been demonstrated has called for faith and has been | given it. Now it becomes a fact from which faith can no longer be |
| Tx:17.78 | are now fully responsible to him. Fail him not now, for it has been | given you to realize what your lack of faith in him must mean to you. |
| Tx:18.1 | once how much at variance this is with the goal the Holy Spirit has | given you and would accomplish for you. To substitute is to choose |
| Tx:18.13 | it here, and you will give as you have accepted. The peace of God is | given you with the glowing purpose in which you join. The holy light |
| Tx:18.16 | is laid upon you. For a time, it seems as if the world were | given you, to make it what you will. You do not realize that you are |
| Tx:18.21 | Think not that He has forgotten anyone in the purpose He has | given you. And think not that He has forgotten you to whom He gave |
| Tx:18.27 | other. You will succeed only in frightening yourselves. The gift is | given forever, for God Himself received it. You cannot take it back. |
| Tx:18.29 | willing to bring the darkness to light, and this willingness has | given strength to everyone who would remain in darkness. Those who |
| Tx:18.36 | You merely ask the question. The answer is | given. Seek not to answer it, but merely receive the answer as it is |
| Tx:18.36 | given. Seek not to answer it, but merely receive the answer as it is | given. In preparing for the holy instant, do not attempt to make |
| Tx:18.59 | is perceived as separate. What really happens is that you have | given up the illusion of a limited awareness and lost your fear of |
| Tx:18.66 | cannot prepare for it without placing it in the future. Release is | given you the instant you desire it. Many have spent a lifetime in |
| Tx:18.67 | the giving in to sin; when the light comes at last into the mind | given to contemplation; or when the goal is finally achieved by |
| Tx:18.68 | it for just one instant, and you will accomplish more than is | given to a century of contemplation or of struggle against temptation. |
| Tx:19.2 | vision does the Holy Spirit share. And since He shares it, He has | given it, and so He heals through you. It is this joining Him in a |
| Tx:19.6 | the body must be healed, and not the mind. For this divided goal has | given both an equal reality, which could be possible only if the mind |
| Tx:19.7 | where both must be, are recognized as dedication to illusion and | given up when brought to truth and seen as totally irreconcilable |
| Tx:19.12 | Faith is the gift of God, through Him Whom God has | given you. Faithlessness looks upon the Son of God and judges him |
| Tx:19.13 | sight of Him Who joined you and in Whom you are united. Grace is not | given to a body, but to a mind. And the mind that receives it looks |
| Tx:19.13 | place where it was healed. There is the altar where the grace was | given, in which it stands. Do you, then, offer grace and blessing to |
| Tx:19.22 | be corrected, if truth be left to judge it. But if the mistake is | given the status of truth, to what can it be brought? The “holiness” |
| Tx:19.34 | it becomes invisible. And errors are quickly recognized and quickly | given to correction to be healed, not hidden. You will be healed of |
| Tx:19.35 | upon each other in glad acknowledgment of the grace that has been | given you. For sin will not prevail against a union Heaven has smiled |
| Tx:19.35 | before your holy sight, for you who were sightless have been | given vision, and you can see. Look not for what has been removed but |
| Tx:19.38 | Call of God. And you will draw him in and give him rest, as it was | given you. All this will you do. Yet the peace which already lies |
| Tx:19.44 | miracle of your relationship to everyone contained in it, as it was | given. |
| Tx:19.53 | The Holy Spirit has | given you love's messengers to send instead of those you trained |
| Tx:19.54 | messengers to remove from it and see it still. The Holy Spirit has | given you His messengers to send to each other and return to each |
| Tx:19.54 | to each other and return to each with what love sees. They have been | given to replace the hungry dogs of fear you sent instead. And they |
| Tx:19.61 | Is it a sacrifice or a release? What has the body really | given you that justifies your strange belief that in it lies |
| Tx:19.69 | means and not an end. It has no purpose of itself, but only what is | given to it. The body will seem to be whatever is the means for |
| Tx:19.73 | medium, the body receives and sends the messages that it is | given. It has no feeling for them. All of the feeling with which they |
| Tx:19.73 | feeling for them. All of the feeling with which they are invested is | given by the sender and the receiver. The ego and the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:19.76 | It is not | given to the ego's disciples to realize that they have dedicated |
| Tx:19.76 | accepted it, and what is offered must also be received to be truly | given. For the Holy Spirit, too, is a communication medium, receiving |
| Tx:19.77 | To you in whose special relationship the Holy Spirit entered, it is | given to release and be released from the dedication to death. For it |
| Tx:19.83 | You who are dedicated to the incorruptible have been | given through your acceptance the power to release from corruption. |
| Tx:19.86 | and quietly made ready to fulfill the mighty task for which it was | given you. Your newborn purpose is nursed by angels, cherished by the |
| Tx:19.87 | fear can enter and disturb the peace of sinlessness? What has been | given you, even in its infancy, is in full communication with God and |
| Tx:19.88 | of meaning, judge it not. Remember the holy Presence of the One | given to you to be the Source of judgment. Give it to Him to judge |
| Tx:19.94 | quiet recognition that you love Him. The exaltation of the body is | given up in favor of the Spirit, which you love as you could never |
| Tx:19.98 | together in a holy instant, here in this place where the purpose | given in a holy instant has led you. And let us join in faith that He |
| Tx:19.104 | will receive of you what you received of him.] Redemption has been | given you to give each other, and thus receive it. Whom you forgive |
| Tx:19.105 | condemn him. And offer thanks to God that he is holy and has been | given the gift of holiness for you. Join him in gladness and remove |
| Tx:19.106 | and mercy are yours to give. Into the hands that give the gift is | given. Look on your brother, and see in him the gift of God you would |
| Tx:19.108 | without which is the journey meaningless. Here is the peace of God, | given to you eternally by Him. Here is the rest and quiet that you |
| Tx:19.109 | And he will recognize his choice by what he gives and what is | given him. Nor is it given anything in hell or Heaven to interfere |
| Tx:19.109 | his choice by what he gives and what is given him. Nor is it | given anything in hell or Heaven to interfere with his decision. |
| Tx:19.110 | together, still without conviction they have a purpose. Yet it is | given you to see this purpose in your holy Friend and recognize it is |
| Tx:20.3 | with the sign of victory the promise of the resurrection already | given him. Let him not wander into the temptation of crucifixion and |
| Tx:20.4 | between the snow white petals of the lilies you have received and | given as your gift, you will behold each other's face and recognize |
| Tx:20.6 | Gifts are not made through bodies if they be truly | given and received. For bodies can neither offer nor accept; hold out |
| Tx:20.10 | gift of lilies while you see them not. Nor can you use what I have | given unless you share it. The Holy Spirit's vision is no idle gift, |
| Tx:20.11 | You have the vision now to look past all illusions. It has been | given you to see no thorns, no strangers, and no obstacles to peace. |
| Tx:20.11 | God looks unto you for his release. For you have asked for and been | given the strength to look upon this final obstacle and see no thorns |
| Tx:20.24 | The world you look on is the answer that it gave you, and you have | given it power to adjust the world to make its answer true. You asked |
| Tx:20.26 | my friends, my brothers, and my Self. Your gift unto each other has | given me the certainty our union will be soon. |
| Tx:20.28 | you lose. It is not up to you to give power at all. Power is of God, | given by Him and reawakened by the Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you |
| Tx:20.28 | are, the Holy Spirit merely gives everything to God, Who has already | given and received all that is true. The untrue He has neither |
| Tx:20.28 | received all that is true. The untrue He has neither received nor | given. |
| Tx:20.29 | of the laws of God in minds that have established other laws and | given them power to enforce what God created not. |
| Tx:20.30 | you see in him, you see your own. For this you share. What God has | given follows His laws and His alone. Nor is it possible for those |
| Tx:20.31 | Their power is of God, and they will give it only to what God has | given to share with them. Nothing but this can touch them, for they |
| Tx:20.32 | him. To each who walks this earth in seeming solitude is a savior | given, whose special function here is to release him and so to free |
| Tx:20.33 | need you be concerned with anything except the part that has been | given you to learn. For He Who knows the rest will see to it without |
| Tx:20.34 | This is the purpose | given you. Think not that your forgiveness of each other serves but |
| Tx:20.36 | except the only purpose that you would fulfill. As that was | given you, so will its fulfillment be. God's guarantee will hold |
| Tx:20.38 | And in that single heart beat is the unity of love proclaimed and | given welcome. Peace to your holy relationship, which has the power |
| Tx:20.38 | everyone, and in your gift is everyone made glad. Forget not Who has | given you the gifts you give, and through your not forgetting this |
| Tx:20.39 | will never see it, but wait in patience for its coming. It will be | given you to see your brother's worth when all you want for him is |
| Tx:20.42 | And here the limitless forgiveness you will give each other already | given; the face of Christ you yet will look upon already seen. |
| Tx:20.55 | prisoner in a tiny spot of space and time, beholden unto death and | given but an instant in which to sigh and grieve and die in honor of |
| Tx:20.56 | Here it is | given him to choose to spend this instant paying tribute to the body |
| Tx:20.56 | to spend this instant paying tribute to the body or let himself be | given freedom from it. Here he can accept the holy instant, offered |
| Tx:20.57 | of God remains with you. Yet what is that to those who have been | given one true relationship beyond the body? Can they be long held |
| Tx:20.60 | are difficult. Yet how can they be difficult if they are merely | given you? They guarantee the goal, and they are perfectly in line |
| Tx:20.66 | free of condemnation. And what he sees he did not make, for it was | given him to see, as was the vision which made his seeing possible. |
| Tx:20.67 | at first in glimpses, but they will be enough to show you what is | given you who see your brother sinless. Truth is restored to you |
| Tx:20.68 | of joy? Your holy relationship offers all this to you. As it was | given you, so will be its effects. And as its holy purpose was not |
| Tx:20.68 | and think not that you need make either means or end. All this is | given you who would but see your brother sinless. All this is given, |
| Tx:20.68 | is given you who would but see your brother sinless. All this is | given, waiting on your desire but to receive it. Vision is freely |
| Tx:20.68 | is given, waiting on your desire but to receive it. Vision is freely | given to those who ask to see. |
| Tx:20.69 | Your brother's sinlessness is | given you in shining light, to look on with the Holy Spirit's vision |
| Tx:20.70 | your purpose now, and the vision that makes it yours is ready to be | given. You have the vision which enables each one to see the body |
| Tx:21.14 | release from pain, and the complete escape from sin, all to be | given you. Say only this, but mean it with no reservations, for here |
| Tx:21.17 | and even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by this gift is | given you the power to release your savior that he may give salvation |
| Tx:21.18 | Give it away, and everything you see goes with it. Never was so much | given for so little. In the holy instant is this exchange effected |
| Tx:21.18 | do not want brought to the one you do. And here the one you do is | given you because you want it. Yet for this, the power of your |
| Tx:21.19 | circular the reasoning on which your “seeing” rests. This was not | given you. This was your gift to you and to your brother. Be willing, |
| Tx:21.19 | with truth. And as you look upon the change in him, it will be | given you to see it in yourself. |
| Tx:21.33 | Faithlessness is not a lack of faith, but faith in nothing. Faith | given to illusions does not lack power, for by it does the Son of God |
| Tx:21.36 | to place its power elsewhere should another point of view be | given them. The miracles which follow this decision are also born of |
| Tx:21.36 | are also born of faith. For all who choose to look away from sin are | given vision and are led to holiness. |
| Tx:21.37 | Him, you will hate Him because you are afraid. The gift that He has | given you is more than anything that stands this side of Heaven. The |
| Tx:21.38 | Your faith in sacrifice has | given it great power in your sight, except you do not realize you |
| Tx:21.40 | perception and belief and faith from mind to body. Let them now be | given back to what produced them and can use them still to save |
| Tx:21.47 | relationship on earth. And earth can hold no longer what has been | given Heaven as its own. |
| Tx:21.53 | exist. And if it exists for you and has your freedom as the purpose | given it, you must be free to find it. |
| Tx:21.65 | and seeks not to frighten you. The power to heal the Son of God is | given you because he must be one with you. You are responsible for |
| Tx:21.65 | are responsible for how he sees himself. And reason tells you it is | given you to change his whole mind, which is one with you, in just an |
| Tx:21.65 | is his whole salvation seen as complete with yours. Reason is | given you to understand that this is so. For reason, kind as is the |
| Tx:21.67 | yours. Reason speaks happily indeed of this. This gracious plan was | given love by Love. And what Love plans is like Itself in this: being |
| Tx:21.67 | have you learn what you must be. And being one with It, it must be | given you to give what It has given and gives still. Spend but an |
| Tx:21.67 | be. And being one with It, it must be given you to give what It has | given and gives still. Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of |
| Tx:21.67 | gives still. Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of what is | given you to give your brother, and learn with him what has been |
| Tx:21.67 | is given you to give your brother, and learn with him what has been | given both of you. To give is no more blessed than to receive. But |
| Tx:21.80 | an enemy in which you are not helpless, the means to see it will be | given you. |
| Tx:21.84 | perceived except through constant vision. And constant vision can be | given only those who wish for constancy. The power of the Son of |
| Tx:21.88 | by one whom God Himself will never fail to answer. God has already | given him all that he really wants. Yet what he is uncertain of, God |
| Tx:21.90 | is the holy instant but God's appeal to you to recognize what He has | given you? Here is the great appeal to reason; the awareness of what |
| Tx:21.90 | For here the final question is already answered and what you ask for | given. Here is the future now, for time is powerless because of your |
| Tx:22.9 | Your sight was | given you, along with everything that you can understand. You will |
| Tx:22.11 | not nurtured by the “something else” you thought was you. He was not | given there, nor was received by anything except yourself. For no two |
| Tx:22.12 | Think what is | given you, my holy brothers. This child will teach you what you do |
| Tx:22.20 | is like its source. Therefore, says reason, if escape from guilt was | given to the Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom nothing |
| Tx:22.26 | recognize him for what he is if God would have it so. What God has | given to your holy relationship is there. For what He gave the Holy |
| Tx:22.26 | to you, He gave. Would you not look upon the savior that has been | given you? And would you not exchange in gratitude the function of an |
| Tx:22.26 | gave him for the one he has in truth? Receive of him what God has | given him for you, not what you tried to give yourself. |
| Tx:22.28 | with Christ is share His vision. Quickly and gladly is His vision | given to anyone who is but willing to see his brother sinless. And no |
| Tx:22.31 | peace and brings you to a state of mind in which salvation can be | given you. Sin is a block, set like a heavy gate, locked and without |
| Tx:22.42 | So shall you walk the world with me, whose message has not yet been | given to everyone. For you are here to let it be received. God's |
| Tx:22.42 | have accepted it is it received. Into your joined hands is it safely | given, for you who share it have become its willing guardians and |
| Tx:22.43 | To all who share the love of God, the grace is | given to be the givers of what they have received. And so they learn |
| Tx:22.44 | could find it difficult. For by receiving it, he learned it was not | given him alone. Such is the function of a holy relationship—to |
| Tx:22.54 | not at all. Nothing entrusted to it can be misused, and nothing | given it but will be used. This holy relationship has the power to |
| Tx:22.55 | of Heaven in its place. How blessed are you who let this gift be | given! Each part of Heaven that you bring is given you. And every |
| Tx:22.55 | who let this gift be given! Each part of Heaven that you bring is | given you. And every empty place in Heaven that you fill again with |
| Tx:22.58 | Seek not to change it nor to substitute another goal. [This one was | given you and only this.] Accept this one and serve it willingly, for |
| Tx:22.59 | limit it in any way. He will join to it all the power that God has | given Him to make each little gift of love a source of healing for |
| Tx:22.65 | not attempt to keep a little of the ego with this gift. For it was | given you to be used and not obscured. What teaches you you cannot |
| Tx:23.6 | light of Heaven in it. So will you come to understand all that is | given you. In kind forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and |
| Tx:23.16 | You dwell in peace as limitless as its Creator, and everything is | given those who would remember Him. Over His home the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:23.42 | make the gift you give. An empty box, however beautiful and gently | given, still contains nothing. And neither the receiver nor the giver |
| Tx:23.53 | You have no reference-point from where to look, where meaning can be | given what you see. For only bodies could attack and murder, and if |
| Tx:23.54 | Think what is | given those who share their Father's purpose and who know that it is |
| Tx:24.1 | this course is the attainment and the keeping of the state of peace. | Given this state the mind is quiet, and the condition in which God is |
| Tx:24.3 | one alternative that you can choose for love. Your choosing it has | given it all the reality it seems to have. |
| Tx:24.4 | decisions have been made and kept hidden to become beliefs, now | given power to direct all subsequent decisions. Mistake you not the |
| Tx:24.8 | Father created him like you. There is no difference. You have been | given to each other that love might be extended, not cut off from one |
| Tx:24.18 | You who have chained your savior to your specialness and | given it his place, remember this: He has not lost the power to |
| Tx:24.18 | sins you think you placed between him and the function of salvation | given him for you. Nor will you change his function, any more than |
| Tx:24.21 | for He would not keep one part of what He is unto Himself, not | given to His Son but kept for Him alone. And it is this you fear, for |
| Tx:24.22 | can it be that you have lost because he is complete? What has been | given him makes you complete, as it does him. God's love gave you to |
| Tx:24.23 | treachery upon the gift of love. Whatever serves its purpose must be | given to kill. No gift that bears its seal but offers treachery to |
| Tx:24.27 | idol that seems to give you power has taken it away. For you have | given your brother's birthright to it, leaving him alone and |
| Tx:24.37 | keep the gift your Father asks from Him and give it there instead? | Given to Him, the universe is yours. Offered to them, no gifts can be |
| Tx:24.37 | is yours. Offered to them, no gifts can be returned. What you have | given specialness has left you bankrupt and your treasure house |
| Tx:24.39 | you appointed to be your savior and crucified the one whom God has | given you instead. So are you bound with him, for you are one. And so |
| Tx:24.44 | they serve a different purpose, the strength their purpose holds is | given them. And what they see and hear and hold and lead is given |
| Tx:24.44 | holds is given them. And what they see and hear and hold and lead is | given light that you may lead as you were led. |
| Tx:24.52 | and will not escape its laws of violence and death. Yet it is | given you to be beyond its laws in all respects, in every way, and |
| Tx:24.56 | nor you who see him truly. His mistakes can cause delay, which it is | given you to take from him that both may end a journey that has never |
| Tx:24.57 | risen from the past. He who condemned himself, and you as well, is | given you to save from condemnation along with you. And both shall |
| Tx:24.58 | Think, then, how great the love of God for you must be that He has | given you a part of Him to save from pain and give you happiness. And |
| Tx:24.60 | forth, and all the power of Heaven and the might of truth itself is | given to provide the means and guarantee the goal's accomplishment. |
| Tx:24.63 | your seeing it in him, returns to you. All of the tribute you have | given specialness belongs to him and thus returns to you. All of the |
| Tx:24.64 | for if it were, you would be lost indeed. Be thankful, rather, it is | given you to see his holiness because it is the truth. And what is |
| Tx:24.67 | what this condition means. Not till you go past learning to the | Given; not till you make again a holy home for your creations is it |
| Tx:24.72 | goal. It is not bound to specialness but by your choice. And it is | given you to make a different choice and use perception for a |
| Tx:25.8 | too. Not that it is in truth, but that the link that has been | given you to join the truth may reach to you through what you |
| Tx:25.17 | when you choose to see it in its place. The frame that God has | given it but serves His purpose, not yours apart from His. It is your |
| Tx:25.18 | it safe that you might look on it and see the holiness that He has | given it. |
| Tx:25.19 | frame in which your holiness is set, and what God gave him must be | given you. However much he overlooks the masterpiece in him and sees |
| Tx:25.21 | for the wholly pure have never sinned. Give then what He has | given you that you may see His Son as one and thank his Father as He |
| Tx:25.21 | his Father as He thanks you. Nor believe that all His praise is | given not to you. For what you give is His, and giving it you learn |
| Tx:25.22 | him honor that you may esteem yourself and him. To each of you is | given the power of salvation that escape from darkness into light be |
| Tx:25.22 | as one what never has been separate nor apart from all God's love as | given equally. |
| Tx:25.28 | but his choice. And when he chooses to avail himself of what is | given him, then will he see each situation that he thought before was |
| Tx:25.28 | nothing except a chance for you to see the workings of the Helper | given you to see the world He made, instead of yours. |
| Tx:25.36 | In you is all of Heaven. Every leaf that falls is | given life in you. Each bird that ever sang will sing again in you. |
| Tx:25.39 | beneath the ego's senseless shrieks, such is the call that God has | given him that you might hear in him His Call to you and answer by |
| Tx:25.42 | you perceive him. But forget not this—the role you give to him is | given you, and you will walk the way you pointed out to him because |
| Tx:25.47 | to one perceived as other than himself, he learns the gift was | given to himself, and so they must be one. Forgiveness is the only |
| Tx:25.49 | Think not you lack a special value here. You wanted it, and it is | given you. All that you made can serve salvation easily and well. The |
| Tx:25.49 | and will remain in time and in eternity alike. This is the function | given each of you for one another. Take it gently then from one |
| Tx:25.49 | fulfilled in both of you. Do this one thing, that everything be | given you. |
| Tx:25.57 | of everyone who chose insanity as his salvation. To this One is | given the choice of form most suitable to him; one which will not |
| Tx:25.73 | come to plead for him and not against his life? No justice would be | given him by you. Yet God ensured that justice would be done unto the |
| Tx:25.75 | How little need you give the Holy Spirit that simple justice may be | given you! |
| Tx:25.79 | until reluctance to receive it disappears and you are willing it be | given you. God's justice warrants gratitude, not fear. Nothing you |
| Tx:25.79 | and preserved [for you] in Heaven, where all of the treasures | given to God's Son are kept for him and offered anyone who but holds |
| Tx:25.79 | in willingness they be received. Nor is the treasure less as it is | given out. Each gift [received] but adds to the supply. For God is |
| Tx:25.84 | than he has sought to be. If miracles, the Holy Spirit's gift, were | given specially to an elect and special group and kept apart from |
| Tx:25.87 | accomplish when it is offered to everyone alike. It is received and | given equally. It is awareness that giving and receiving are the |
| Tx:26.4 | Nor can his song of union and of love be heard at all. Yet is it | given him to make the world recede before his song and sight of him |
| Tx:26.6 | you will hear no song of liberation for yourself nor see what it is | given him to witness to that you may see it and rejoice with him. |
| Tx:26.7 | Yet every instant can you be reborn and | given life again. His holiness gives life to you, who cannot die |
| Tx:26.8 | of life or death. For neither did he make, and only one was | given him by One Who knows His gifts can never suffer sacrifice and |
| Tx:26.15 | entirely. Consider once again your special function. One is | given you to see in him his perfect sinlessness. And you will ask no |
| Tx:26.17 | and undefiled. And all you need to do is but to wish that Heaven be | given you instead of hell, and every bolt and barrier that seems to |
| Tx:26.45 | God's Son, nor one with which he could remain content. Yet God has | given him a better Friend in Whom all power in earth and Heaven |
| Tx:26.46 | gifts that are not of this world, and only He to whom they have been | given can make sure that you receive them. He will place them on your |
| Tx:26.49 | knowledge is not true of anything that is apart from it. Yet has God | given answer to the world of sickness which applies to all its forms. |
| Tx:26.51 | to truth than are the rest. But it is possible that some are | given greater value and less willingly offered to truth for healing |
| Tx:26.64 | and hate is answered in the name of love. To you to whom it has been | given to save the Son of God from crucifixion and from hell and |
| Tx:26.65 | To use the power God has | given you as He would have it used is natural. It is not arrogant to |
| Tx:26.70 | the interval between the time in which forgiveness is withheld and | given seem dangerous, with terror justified. |
| Tx:26.72 | laid within the future, where you cannot plan. No purpose has been | given it as yet, and what will happen has as yet no cause. Who can |
| Tx:26.74 | clearly hints at punishment until the time of liberation is at hand. | Given a change of purpose for the good, there is no reason for an |
| Tx:26.80 | passes to nothingness when They have come. What hatred claimed is | given up to love, and freedom lights up every living thing and lifts |
| Tx:26.81 | What has been locked is opened; what was held apart from light is | given up, that light may shine on it, and leave no space nor distance |
| Tx:26.86 | For otherwise, how could some be evaluated as unfair? Some then are | given meaning and perceived as sensible. And only some are seen as |
| Tx:26.89 | your whole relationship. And this you seek to add unto the purpose | given it. The Holy Spirit's purpose is to let the Presence of your |
| Tx:27.10 | it is for. Now is it not condemned, but waiting for a purpose to be | given that it may fulfill the function that it will receive. |
| Tx:27.12 | leaves no space in which a different view, another purpose, can be | given it. You do not know its purpose. You but gave illusions of a |
| Tx:27.17 | proved to him. A miracle can offer nothing less to him than it has | given unto you. So does your healing show your mind is healed and has |
| Tx:27.18 | your blood is on his hands, and so he stands condemned. Yet it is | given you to show him by your healing that his guilt is but the |
| Tx:27.19 | his heart made heavy with the proof of sin. And what you wish is | given you to see. |
| Tx:27.24 | [Correction you would do must separate, because that is the function | given it by you. When you perceive correction is the same as pardon, |
| Tx:27.24 | And so your own Identity is found. Yet must He work with what is | given Him, and you allow Him only half your mind. And thus He |
| Tx:27.27 | Correction is the function | given both, but neither one alone. And when it is fulfilled as |
| Tx:27.27 | made aware of any function other than Its own. And thus is healing | given both of you. |
| Tx:27.28 | conceives a single function as Its only one. Here is the function | given It conceived to be Its own and not apart from that Its Giver |
| Tx:27.34 | The picture of your brother | given you to occupy the space so lately left unoccupied and vacant |
| Tx:27.37 | your state of mind solution is impossible. Therefore, God must have | given you a way of reaching to another state of mind in which the |
| Tx:27.41 | is it possible to separate your wishes from the answer, so it can be | given you and also be received. The answer is provided everywhere. |
| Tx:27.48 | to the world. And being blessed, you will bring blessing. Life is | given you to give the dying world. And suffering eyes no longer will |
| Tx:27.53 | to you to whom is healing offered. And you will learn that peace is | given you when you accept the healing for yourself. Its total value |
| Tx:27.53 | for He knows it is a gift of love unto His Son, and therefore is it | given unto Him. |
| Tx:27.70 | or war, your dreams or your reality? Yet if the choice is really | given you, then you must see the causes of the things you choose |
| Tx:28.3 | truth. All things the Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been | given Him, without the content and the purposes for which they have |
| Tx:28.5 | let it go. Memory holds the message it receives and does what it is | given it to do. It does not write the message nor appoint what it is |
| Tx:28.12 | He to Whom time is | given offers thanks for every quiet instant given Him. For in that |
| Tx:28.12 | He to Whom time is given offers thanks for every quiet instant | given Him. For in that instant is His memory allowed to offer all its |
| Tx:28.12 | How gladly does He offer them unto the one for whom He has been | given them! And His Creator shares His thanks because He would not be |
| Tx:28.16 | gives fatherhood to his Creator and receives the gift that he has | given Him. It is because he is God's Son that he must also be a |
| Tx:28.17 | where all healing is. Where then is healing? Only where its cause is | given its effects. For sickness is a meaningless attempt to give |
| Tx:28.18 | It has but one effect. And in that recognition, causelessness is | given no effects and none are seen. A mind within a body and a world |
| Tx:28.23 | His body is their slave which they abuse because the motives he has | given it have they adopted as their own. And hate it for the |
| Tx:28.46 | when he has received the simple happiness of health? What God has | given cannot be a loss, and what is not of Him has no effects. What |
| Tx:28.63 | that it not be sick. All miracles are based upon this choice and | given you the instant it is made. No forms of sickness are immune |
| Tx:29.15 | thing be part of him, and nothing else have life. What you have | given “life” is not alive and symbolizes but your wish to be alive |
| Tx:29.23 | forth the gentle way of kindness to God's Son. Whom you forgive is | given power to forgive you your illusions. By your gift of freedom is |
| Tx:29.23 | power to forgive you your illusions. By your gift of freedom is it | given unto you. Make way for love, which you did not create, but |
| Tx:29.28 | dreams you think you like are those in which the functions you have | given have been filled, the needs which you ascribe to you are met. |
| Tx:29.30 | function, Who can utilize all dreams as means to serve the function | given Him. Because He loves the dreamer not the dream, each dream |
| Tx:29.34 | gift in whom his Father shines forever and to whom is all creation | given as his own. Because he has it is it given you, and where it |
| Tx:29.34 | to whom is all creation given as his own. Because he has it is it | given you, and where it lies in him, behold your peace. The quiet |
| Tx:29.36 | A dream is | given you in which he is your savior, not your enemy in hate. A dream |
| Tx:29.36 | you in which he is your savior, not your enemy in hate. A dream is | given you in which you have forgiven him for all his dreams of death |
| Tx:29.43 | abides and seek no longer elsewhere. You will fail. But it is | given you to know the truth and not to seek for it outside yourself. |
| Tx:29.47 | which in its lifelessness is really death, conceived as real and | given living form. Yet each must fail and crumble and decay because a |
| Tx:29.48 | yourself. Let us forget the purpose of the world the past has | given it. For otherwise, the future will be like the past and but a |
| Tx:29.49 | your dreams, for they are what you wish, perceived as if it had been | given you. Your idols do what you would have them do and have the |
| Tx:29.54 | the Christ and what you see. An idol is a wish made tangible and | given form and thus perceived as real and seen outside the mind. Yet |
| Tx:29.56 | Nothing! It must be believed before it seems to come to life and | given power that it may be feared. Its life and power are its |
| Tx:29.57 | of idols has been set by the idea this power and place and time are | given form and shape the world where the impossible has happened. |
| Tx:29.57 | of time. Here does the changeless change, the peace of God, forever | given to all living things, give way to chaos, and the Son of God, as |
| Tx:29.60 | God has not many sons, but only One. Who can have more, and who be | given less? In Heaven would the Son of God but laugh if idols could |
| Tx:30.8 | If I make no decision by myself, This is the day that will be | given me. |
| Tx:30.10 | if you feel yourself unwilling to sit by and ask to have the answer | given you. This means you have decided by yourself and cannot see the |
| Tx:30.37 | Him Who gave your will to you. For it is by your will the world is | given freedom. Nor can you be free apart from Him Whose holy will you |
| Tx:30.41 | be denied. Your will to be complete is but God's Will, and this is | given you by being His. God knows not form. He cannot answer you in |
| Tx:30.62 | away. Yet God need not create His Son again that what is his be | given back to him. The gap between your brother and yourself was |
| Tx:30.70 | from fear begins and will be made complete. Here is the real world | given in exchange for dreams of terror. For it is on this forgiveness |
| Tx:30.81 | in him. It is not difficult to overlook mistakes that have been | given no effects. But what you see as having power to make an idol of |
| Tx:30.81 | wrong about His Son? Or have you been deceived in him who has been | given you to heal, for your salvation and deliverance? |
| Tx:30.84 | meaning. But it must accord one meaning to them all. If they are | given different meanings, it must be that they reflect but different |
| Tx:30.85 | means whereby perception can be stabilized and one interpretation | given to the world and all experiences here. In this shared purpose |
| Tx:30.85 | You do not have to judge, for you have learned one meaning has been | given everything, and you are glad to see it everywhere. It cannot |
| Tx:30.88 | to all our brothers and to understand with them forgiveness has been | given to us all, and thus we can communicate again. |
| Tx:30.91 | And Heaven gives no answer to the prayer, nor can a miracle be | given you to heal appearances you do not like. You have established |
| Tx:30.91 | you do not like. You have established limits. What you ask is | given you, but not of God Who knows no limits. You have limited |
| Tx:30.92 | have when you desire healing. But there is no miracle that can be | given you unless you want it. Choose what you would heal, and He Who |
| Tx:30.92 | what you would heal, and He Who gives all miracles has not been | given freedom to bestow His gifts upon God's Son. When he is tempted, |
| Tx:30.93 | offer them to you to see in happy form, devoid of fear. It will be | given you to look upon your brother thus. But not while you would |
| Tx:31.14 | The first is a decision that you make. But afterwards the truth is | given you. You would establish truth. And by your wish, you set two |
| Tx:31.16 | is. Unless he serves it, he has not fulfilled the function that was | given him by you. And thus he merits death because he has no purpose |
| Tx:31.25 | by your side? This is the road to nowhere, for the light cannot be | given while you walk alone, and so you cannot see which way you go. |
| Tx:31.29 | preferred the body change in its appearances to suit the purpose | given by the mind. For it can learn, and there is all change made. |
| Tx:31.31 | us be glad that you will see what you believe, and that it has been | given you to change what you believe. The body will but follow. It |
| Tx:31.33 | think within the narrow band from birth to death a little time is | given you to use for you alone, a time when everyone conflicts with |
| Tx:31.34 | be escaped. Be not deceived by all the different names its roads are | given. They have but one end. And each is but the means to gain that |
| Tx:31.40 | you will gain as much as he will lose, and what you lose is what is | given him. How utterly opposed to truth is this, when the lesson's |
| Tx:31.40 | what your brother loses you have lost and what he gains is what is | given you. |
| Tx:31.49 | not natural. Apart from learning, they do not exist. They are not | given, and they must be made. Not one of them is true, and many come |
| Tx:31.50 | concept of the self must be undone if any peace of mind is to be | given you. Nor can it be unlearned except by lessons aimed to teach |
| Tx:31.54 | chose for both of you, and what he represents has meaning that was | given it by you. It also shows some glimmering of sight into |
| Tx:31.65 | conceive that you must make the way to Heaven plain. The means are | given you by which to see the world that will replace the one you |
| Tx:31.70 | For you will not interpret what you see without the Aid that God has | given you. And in His sight there is another world. |
| Tx:31.71 | Born as a gift for someone not perceived to be yourself, it has been | given you. For your forgiveness, offered unto him, has been accepted |
| Tx:31.73 | understands the changes that it needs to let it serve the function | given you to bring you peace that you may offer peace to have it |
| Tx:31.74 | of fear. And what you see is hell, for fear is hell. All that is | given you is for release—the sight, the vision, and the inner Guide |
| Tx:31.77 | would be one who is but partly saved. The holy ones whom God has | given each of you to save are everyone you meet or look upon, not |
| Tx:31.77 | will yet meet, the unremembered and the not yet born. For God has | given you His Son to save from every concept that he ever held. |
| Tx:31.80 | asks, “What is the meaning of what I behold?” Then is the answer | given. And the door held open for the face of Christ to shine upon |
| Tx:31.82 | Let not the world's light, | given unto you, be hidden from the world. It needs the light, for it |
| Tx:31.86 | Simply by never using weakness to direct your actions, you have | given it no power. And the light of Christ in you is given charge of |
| Tx:31.86 | you have given it no power. And the light of Christ in you is | given charge of everything you do. For you have brought your weakness |
| Tx:31.86 | you do. For you have brought your weakness unto Him, and He has | given you His strength instead. |
| Tx:31.93 | in the world uncertain, lonely, and in constant fear. For it is | given you to join with him, and through the Christ in you unveil his |
| W1:7.3 | It is the reason why you have | given everything you see all the meaning that it has for you. |
| W1:12.1 | or a violent world, or an insane world. All these attributes are | given it by you. The world is meaningless in itself. |
| W1:15.1 | This is how your “seeing” was made. This is the function you have | given your body's eyes. It is not seeing. It is image-making. It |
| W1:18.1 | It also emphasizes the idea that minds are joined, which will be | given increasing stress later. |
| W1:20.3 | the resurrection and the life. His Will is done because all power is | given him in Heaven and on earth. In your determination to see is |
| W1:20.3 | him in Heaven and on earth. In your determination to see is vision | given you. |
| W1:25.1 | goals become unified. It is in recognizing this that what you see is | given meaning. |
| W1:42.2 | God is indeed your strength. And what He gives is truly | given. This means that you can receive it any time and anywhere, |
| W1:R1.6 | You will note that for review purposes the ideas are not always | given in quite their original form of statement. Use them as they are |
| W1:R1.6 | in quite their original form of statement. Use them as they are | given here. It is not necessary to return to the original statements |
| W1:51.3 | [2] I have | given what I see all the meaning it has for me. I have judged |
| W1:52.2 | which I made up. The illusions are upsetting because I have | given them reality and thus regard reality as an illusion. Nothing in |
| W1:53.4 | out no safety and no hope. But such a world is not real. I have | given it the illusion of reality, and have suffered from my belief in |
| W1:55.5 | to the world of illusions. I am willing to follow the Guide God has | given me to find out what my own best interests are, recognizing that |
| W1:55.6 | Therefore I do not recognize its real purpose. The purpose I have | given the world has led to a frightening picture of it. Let me open |
| W1:55.6 | me open my mind to its real purpose by withdrawing the one I have | given it, and learning the truth about it. |
| W1:56.3 | of myself go. As it is replaced by truth, vision will surely be | given me. And with this vision, I will look upon the world and upon |
| W1:59.3 | to exchange my pitiful illusion of seeing for the vision that is | given by God. Christ's vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. |
| W1:59.3 | vision that is given by God. Christ's vision is His gift, and He has | given it to me. Let me call upon this gift today, so that this day |
| W1:59.4 | to see through the body's eyes. Yet the vision of Christ has been | given me to replace them. It is through this vision that I choose to |
| W1:59.5 | tried to define what seeing is, and I have been wrong. Now it is | given me to understand that God is the Light in which I see. Let me |
| W1:60.5 | God's Voice is the only voice and the only guide that has been | given to His Son. |
| W1:60.6 | Son is sinless. And as I look upon the world with the vision He has | given me, I remember that I am His Son. |
| W1:61.3 | of your right to be saved and an acknowledgment of the power that is | given you to save others. |
| W1:64.3 | your function here is to be the light of the world, a function | given you by God. It is only the arrogance of the ego that leads you |
| W1:64.4 | temptation. The Son of God is you. Only by fulfilling the function | given you by God will you be happy. That is because your function is |
| W1:66.6 | God gives me only happiness. He has | given my function to me. Therefore my function must be happiness. |
| W1:66.9 | The second premise is that God has | given you your function. We have seen that there are only two parts |
| W1:66.15 | My happiness and function are one because God has | given me both. |
| W1:69.8 | not recognize His answer yet, but you can indeed be sure that it is | given you, and you will yet receive it. Try, as you attempt to go |
| W1:75.3 | we will accept the new world as what we want to see. We will be | given what we desire. We will to see the light; the light has come. |
| W1:75.4 | real world rises before us in gladness, to be seen at last. Sight is | given us, now that the light has come. |
| W1:76.10 | Who says there is no loss under the laws of God. Payment is neither | given nor received. Exchange cannot be made, there are no |
| W1:77.4 | Remind yourself also that miracles are never taken from one and | given to another and that in asking for your rights you are upholding |
| W1:77.5 | of the world and for your own. You have requested that you be | given the means by which this is accomplished. You cannot fail to be |
| W1:78.8 | way and see our savior shining in the light of true forgiveness | given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God and of His Son, as |
| W1:78.12 | think of or remember from the past, allow the role of savior to be | given that you may share it with them. For you both, and all the |
| W1:79.2 | solved if he thinks the problem is something else? Even if he is | given the answer, he cannot see its relevance. |
| W1:79.8 | what our problems are. We are trying to recognize that we have been | given the answer by recognizing the problem so that the problem and |
| W1:80.1 | solution. Salvation is accomplished. Freedom from conflict has been | given you. Accept that fact, and you are ready to take your rightful |
| W1:80.5 | Now let the peace that your acceptance brings be | given you. Close your eyes and receive your reward. Recognize that |
| W1:81.2 | [61] I am the light of the world. How holy am I, who have been | given the function of lighting up the world! Let me be still before |
| W1:89.2 | me to have that I may use it on behalf of the function He has | given me. |
| W1:90.7 | wait for this to be resolved. The answer to this problem is already | given me if I will accept it. Time cannot separate this problem from |
| W1:92.5 | Strength comes from truth and shines with light its Source has | given it; weakness reflects the darkness of its maker. It is sick and |
| W1:92.10 | Self. Its strength will be the light in which the gift of sight is | given you. Leave, then, the dark a little while today, and we will |
| W1:93.10 | the rest of the practice period in trying to experience what God has | given you in place of what you have decreed for yourself. |
| W1:95.12 | this is true. Begin the practice periods today with this assurance, | given to your mind with all the certainty that you can give: |
| W1:95.18 | within you and His love forever yours. You are One Self, and it is | given you to feel this Self within you and to cast all your illusions |
| W1:96.17 | you lay another treasure in your growing store. And all of it is | given everyone who asks for it and will accept the gift. Think, then, |
| W1:96.17 | who asks for it and will accept the gift. Think, then, how much is | given unto you to give this day, that it be given you! |
| W1:96.17 | Think, then, how much is given unto you to give this day, that it be | given you! |
| W1:98.2 | surety has come. We have a mighty purpose to fulfill and have been | given everything we need with which to reach the goal. Not one |
| W1:98.3 | reality. They rest in quiet certainty that they will do what it is | given them to do. They do not doubt their own ability because they |
| W1:98.5 | your time each hour to be able to accept the happiness that God has | given you? Is it not worth five minutes hourly to recognize your |
| W1:99.7 | Salvation is your function with the One to Whom the plan was | given. Now are you entrusted with this plan, along with Him. He has |
| W1:100.2 | part that He has saved for you to take in working out His plan is | given you that you might be restored to what He wills. This part is |
| W1:103.6 | you expect to take the place of pain. God being Love, it will be | given you. Bolster this expectation frequently throughout the day, |
| W1:104.4 | Our longer practice periods today, the hourly five minutes | given truth for your salvation, should begin with this: |
| W1:104.6 | that which is truly ours, as we ask to recognize what God has | given us. |
| W1:104.7 | peace and joy are welcome and to which we come to find what has been | given us by Him. We come in confidence today, aware that what belongs |
| W1:105.2 | The truly | given gift entails no loss. It is impossible that one can gain |
| W1:105.2 | another loses. This implies a limit and an insufficiency. No gift is | given thus. Such “gifts” are but a bid for a more valuable return—a |
| W1:105.4 | of looking at a gift. God's gifts will never lessen when they are | given away. They but increase thereby. As Heaven's peace and joy |
| W1:105.9 | Now are you ready to accept the gift of peace and joy which God has | given you. Now are you ready to experience the joy and peace you have |
| W1:105.9 | Now you can say, “God's peace and joy are mine,” for you have | given what you would receive. |
| W1:106.6 | speak today. Be ready for salvation. It is here and will today be | given unto you. And you will learn your function from the One Who |
| W1:106.7 | start and thus it ends; when everything is yours, and everything is | given away, it will remain with you forever. And the lesson has been |
| W1:106.11 | will again release a thousand more who pause to ask that truth be | given them along with you. |
| W1:106.12 | your choice to hear and to receive the Word by this reminder, | given to yourself as often as is possible today: |
| W1:108.7 | returns to us. Light is tranquility, and in that peace is vision | given us and we can see. |
| W1:R3.4 | with goals you hold more dear. When you withdraw the value | given them, allow your practice periods to be replacements for your |
| W1:R3.6 | faith and let the mind employ the thoughts you gave as they were | given you for it to use. |
| W1:R3.7 | You have been | given them in perfect trust, in perfect confidence that you would use |
| W1:R3.9 | them. As a result, you have gained little reinforcement and have not | given it the opportunity to prove how great are its potential gifts |
| W1:116.3 | for me. I share my Father's Will for me, His Son. What He has | given me is all I want. What He has given me is all there is. |
| W1:116.3 | for me, His Son. What He has given me is all I want. What He has | given me is all there is. |
| W1:121.8 | and your learning will be not of you, but of the Teacher Who was | given you to show the way to you. Today we practice learning to |
| W1:122.4 | the answer that will answer everything? Here is the perfect answer, | given to imperfect questions, meaningless requests, half-hearted |
| W1:122.7 | give no gifts of any value to a mind which has received what God has | given as its own. God wills salvation be received today and that the |
| W1:122.11 | and what your acceptance of the answer brings. Today it will be | given you to feel the peace forgiveness offers and the joy the |
| W1:122.12 | offers everything you want. Today all things you want are | given you. |
| W1:123.6 | them back a thousand and a hundred thousand more than they were | given. He will bless your gifts by sharing them with you, and so they |
| W1:123.7 | and Whom He thanks as you are thanking Him. This holy half an hour | given Him will be returned to you in terms of years for every second, |
| W1:125.2 | God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is free to save himself, | given the Word of God to be his Guide, forever in his mind and at his |
| W1:126.7 | Not having | given Him the gift He asks of you, you cannot recognize His gifts and |
| W1:126.7 | He asks of you, you cannot recognize His gifts and think He has not | given them to you. Yet would He ask you for a gift unless it was for |
| W1:126.7 | for giving is receiving. What remains as unreceived has not been | given, but what has been given must have been received. |
| W1:126.7 | What remains as unreceived has not been given, but what has been | given must have been received. |
| W1:126.12 | All that I give is | given to myself. The Help I need to learn that this is true is with |
| W1:128.2 | other end but this. For everything must serve the purpose you have | given it until you see a different purpose there. The only purpose |
| W1:128.5 | Today we practice letting go all thought of values we have | given to the world. We leave it free of purposes we gave its aspects |
| W1:129.6 | really want, but what you choose instead you want indeed! Let it be | given you today. It waits but for your choosing it to take the place |
| W1:129.10 | your mind can see it plainly and can understand. A day of grace is | given you today, and we give thanks. This day we realize that what |
| W1:131.9 | established him in Heaven? Could he lose what the Eternal Will has | given him to be his home forever? Let us not try longer to impose an |
| W1:134.18 | a deep and certain feeling of relief. The time remaining should be | given to experiencing the escape from all the heavy chains you sought |
| W1:135.14 | this will function flawlessly and with the strength that has been | given it and cannot fail. |
| W1:135.22 | what was planned for us. We will be sure that everything we need is | given us for our accomplishment of this today. We make no plans for |
| W1:135.23 | instead of plan, that we may give instead of organize. And we are | given truly, as we say: |
| W1:136.5 | beyond your own control. But what you have forgot can be remembered, | given willingness to reconsider the decision which is doubly shielded |
| W1:136.14 | that time is an illusion. For it lets you think what God has | given you is not the truth right now, as it must be. The thoughts of |
| W1:137.11 | the instant they are healed and all the grace of healing it is | given them to give. What is opposed to God does not exist. And who |
| W1:140.14 | a minute as the hour strikes to hear the answer to our prayer be | given us as we attend in silence and in joy. This is the day when |
| W1:R4.10 | its intended purpose. Let each word shine with the meaning God has | given it as it was given to you through His Voice. Let each idea that |
| W1:R4.10 | Let each word shine with the meaning God has given it as it was | given to you through His Voice. Let each idea that you review that |
| W1:143.2 | [126] All that I give is | given to myself. |
| W1:154.7 | the messages by giving them away. They choose no roles that are not | given them by His authority. And so they gain by every message which |
| W1:154.12 | and yet belief is lacking still. But this is sure—until belief is | given it, you will receive a thousand miracles and then receive a |
| W1:155.9 | truth and let illusions be your guide. Your holy brothers have been | given you to follow in your footsteps as you walk with certainty of |
| W1:155.13 | who are God's Son. Forget not He has placed His hand in yours and | given you your brothers in His trust that you are worthy of His trust |
| W1:157.3 | Today it will be | given you to feel a touch of Heaven, though you will return to paths |
| W1:157.4 | joined your will with His this day, what you are asking must be | given you. Nothing is needed but today's idea to light your mind and |
| W1:157.8 | life, Translator of perception into truth, the holy Guide to Heaven | given you has dreamed for you this journey which you make and start |
| W1:158.1 | What has been | given you? The knowledge that you are a mind, in Mind and purely |
| W1:158.1 | have you left your Source, remaining as you were created. This was | given you as knowledge which you cannot lose. It was given as well to |
| W1:158.1 | This was given you as knowledge which you cannot lose. It was | given as well to every living thing, for by that knowledge only does |
| W1:159.2 | that you are whole. There is no miracle you cannot give, for all are | given you. Receive them now by opening the storehouse of your mind |
| W1:159.4 | anyone, and in His sight the sinless are as one. Their holiness was | given by His Father and Himself. |
| W1:159.10 | for you to give. Are you not worth the gift when God appointed it be | given you? Judge not God's Son, but follow in the way He has |
| W1:160.7 | unable now to recognize this stranger in your midst, for you have | given him your rightful place. Yet is your Self as certain of Its own |
| W1:163.8 | must therefore be illusion. This the stand we take today. And it is | given us to look past death and see the life beyond. |
| W1:164.6 | Brothers, this day is sacred to the world. Your vision, | given you from far beyond all things within the world, looks back on |
| W1:164.7 | We will not judge today. We will receive but what is | given us from judgment made beyond the world. Our practicing today |
| W1:164.8 | the light in which our Savior looks on us and offer it the freedom | given us through His forgiving vision, now our own. Open the curtain |
| W1:165.4 | your mind will be before it comes to you. Ask to receive, and it is | given you. Conviction lies within it. Till you welcome it as yours, |
| W1:165.6 | is all doubting past, the journey's end made certain, and salvation | given you. Now is Christ's power in your mind to heal as you were |
| W1:166.1 | All things are | given you. God's trust in you is limitless. He knows His Son. He |
| W1:166.5 | unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But he will not look at what is | given him. He wanders on, aware of the futility he sees about him |
| W1:166.10 | which He gave an Answer. That is all. And you who have this Answer | given you have need no more of anything but this. |
| W1:166.12 | to hide from God. He has reminded you of all the gifts that God has | given you. He speaks as well of what becomes your will when you |
| W1:167.5 | far beyond themselves. But they cannot give birth to what was never | given them. As they are made, so will their making be. As they were |
| W1:168.5 | It is a new and holy day today, for we receive what has been | given us. Our faith lies in the Giver, not our own acceptance. We |
| W1:168.7 | Your grace is | given me. I claim it now. Father, I come to You. And You will come to |
| W1:169.6 | when total recognition that its will is God's has been completely | given and received completely. It returns the mind into the endless |
| W1:169.13 | what grace can give. For this we can give in the grace that has been | given us. |
| W1:169.14 | what we ask this day of Him Who gives the grace we ask as it was | given Him? |
| W1:170.13 | forever. You have chosen Him in place of idols, and your attributes, | given by your Creator, are restored to you at last. The Call of God |
| W1:R5.3 | us to unify our practicing, as we review the thoughts that You have | given us. |
| W1:R5.10 | you from Him Who sees your bitter need and knows the answer God has | given Him. Together we review these thoughts. Together we devote our |
| W1:179.3 | [168] Your grace is | given me. I claim it now. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:183.11 | Turn to the Name of God for your release, and it is | given you. No prayer but this is necessary, for it holds them all |
| W1:183.12 | we would experience this peace today. And in His Name it shall be | given us. |
| W1:184.2 | things, between all things and you. Thus do you think that you have | given life in separation. By this split you think you are established |
| W1:184.3 | as you wished to have perception be. The nameless things were | given names and thus reality was given them as well. For what is |
| W1:184.3 | be. The nameless things were given names and thus reality was | given them as well. For what is named is given meaning and will then |
| W1:184.3 | names and thus reality was given them as well. For what is named is | given meaning and will then be seen as meaningful, a cause of true |
| W1:184.4 | way reality is made by partial vision, purposefully set against the | given truth. Its enemy is wholeness. It conceives of little things |
| W1:184.10 | the darkness. Here you understand the Word, the Name Which God has | given you; the One Identity Which all things share; the one |
| W1:184.12 | our practicing, our purpose is to let our minds accept what He has | given as the answer to the pitiful inheritance you made as fitting |
| W1:184.14 | God's Son, we understand that they have but One Name, Which He has | given them. It is this Name we use in practicing. And through Its |
| W1:184.14 | all foolish separations disappear which kept us blind. And we are | given strength to see beyond them. Now our sight is blessed with |
| W1:185.1 | you in any form, in any place or time. Heaven would be completely | given back to full awareness, memory of God entirely restored, the |
| W1:185.2 | make a hell and think it real. He wants the peace of God, and it is | given him. For that is all he wants, and that is all he will receive. |
| W1:185.6 | And when the wish for peace is genuine, the means for finding it are | given in a form each mind which seeks for it in honesty can |
| W1:185.7 | This is no idle wish. These words do not request another dream be | given us. They do not ask for compromise nor try to make another |
| W1:185.10 | for it, and where to turn for help in the attempt. Help has been | given you. And would you not avail yourself of it by sharing it? |
| W1:185.12 | For you it was created, | given you by its Creator and established as His own eternal gift. How |
| W1:185.14 | this beside us, can we fail today as we request the peace of God be | given us? |
| W1:186.1 | humility which holds no function as your own but that which has been | given you. It offers your acceptance of a part assigned to you, |
| W1:186.2 | function. We did not establish it. It is not our idea. The means are | given us by which it will be perfectly accomplished. All that we are |
| W1:186.2 | not deny with self-deceiving arrogance that we are worthy. What is | given us to do we have the strength to do. Our minds are suited |
| W1:186.8 | And so we find our peace. We will accept the function God has | given us, for all illusions rest upon the weird belief that we can |
| W1:186.10 | leave your mind unclouded and serene when you accept the function | given you. The images you make give rise to but conflicting goals, |
| W1:186.11 | as the sun's return each morning to dispel the night, your truly | given function stands out clear and wholly unambiguous. There is no |
| W1:186.12 | you. Hear instead a certain Voice Which tells you of a function | given you by your Creator, Who remembers you and urges that you now |
| W1:186.13 | although He sees them not. For Love must give, and what is | given in His Name takes on the form most useful in a world of form. |
| W1:186.14 | which as it is in Heaven has no form. Yet what is needed here is | given here as it is needed. In this form, you can fulfill your |
| W1:187.1 | phase on which the world and true perception differ. Having had and | given, then the world asserts that you have lost what you possessed. |
| W1:187.3 | everyone you look upon. Herein is the idea of giving clarified and | given meaning. Now you can perceive that by your giving is your store |
| W1:187.8 | arisen and correction must be made. Your blessing will correct it. | Given first to you, it now is yours to give as well. No form of |
| W1:187.9 | gift forever there, forever to increase, forever yours, forever | given away. |
| W1:188.3 | hearts and lights all vision as it passes by. All of its gifts are | given everyone, and everyone unites in giving thanks to you who give |
| W1:188.4 | as well. From you salvation radiates with gifts beyond all measure, | given and returned. To you, the giver of the gift, does God Himself |
| W1:189.5 | What would you see? The choice is | given you. But learn and do not let your mind forget this law of |
| W1:190.10 | This is the day when it is | given you to realize the lesson which contains all of salvation's |
| W1:191.11 | born but to die, to weep, and suffer pain, hear this: all power is | given you in earth and Heaven. There is nothing that you cannot do. |
| W1:192.7 | We are one and therefore give up nothing. But we have indeed been | given everything by God. Yet do we need forgiveness to perceive that |
| W1:193.3 | He knows no sin is possible. And yet He let His holy law of Love be | given form in which it could be offered to the world. And He created |
| W1:193.10 | words which give you power over all events which seem to have been | given power over you. You see them rightly when you hold these words |
| W1:194.3 | faithfully. In no one instant can one even die. And so each instant | given unto God in passing, with the next one given Him already, is a |
| W1:194.3 | And so each instant given unto God in passing, with the next one | given Him already, is a time of your release from sadness, pain and |
| W1:195.9 | of gratitude in place of anger, malice, and revenge. We have been | given everything. If we refuse to recognize it, we are not entitled |
| W1:197.4 | gifts seem lost and ineffectual. They are received where they are | given. In your gratitude are they accepted universally and thankfully |
| W1:197.5 | God blesses every gift you give to Him and every gift is | given Him because it can be given only to yourself, and what belongs |
| W1:197.5 | gift you give to Him and every gift is given Him because it can be | given only to yourself, and what belongs to God must be His own. Yet |
| W1:197.6 | Withdraw the gifts you give, and you will think that what is | given you has been withdrawn. But learn to let forgiveness take away |
| W1:197.9 | the countless channels which extend this Self. All that you do is | given unto Him. All that you think can only be His thoughts, sharing |
| W1:197.9 | you have denied yourself when you forgot the function God has | given you. But never think that He has ever ceased to offer thanks to |
| W1:198.15 | not forsake us now. For He would give to us the gift that God has | given us through Him today. Now is it time for your deliverance. The |
| W1:199.2 | asked. Attack thoughts cannot enter such a mind because it has been | given to the Source of Love. And fear can never enter in a mind that |
| W1:199.9 | I am not a body. I am free. I hear the Voice that God has | given me, and it is only this my mind obeys. |
| W1:200.4 | world is not where you belong. You are a stranger here. But it is | given you to find the means whereby the world no longer seems to be a |
| W1:200.5 | Freedom is | given you where you beheld but chains and iron doors. For you must |
| W1:R6.6 | all that we thought we knew and understood. For thus is freedom | given us from all we did not know and failed to understand. |
| W1:R6.7 | what it would have. Then gently let the thought which you denied be | given up in sure and quick exchange for the idea we practice for the |
| W1:R6.11 | review we now begin, and let us also not forget to Whom it has been | given as we practice day by day, advancing toward the goal He set for |
| W1:202.1 | to stay an instant more where I do not belong, when God Himself has | given me His Voice to call me home? I am not a body. I am free. For I |
| W1:212.1 | from all the vain illusions of the world. Only the function God has | given me can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this will I |
| W1:216.1 | myself. If I attack, I suffer. But if I forgive, salvation will be | given me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created |
| W2:I.3 | in the remaining holy instants which conclude the year that we have | given God. We say some simple words of welcome and expect our Father |
| W2:I.6 | us how to leave the world of sorrow in exchange for its replacement | given us by You. We look not backward now. We look ahead and fix our |
| W2:I.11 | reviewed each day, each one of them to be continued till the next is | given you. They should be slowly read and thought about a little |
| W2:WF.5 | success. He has forgiven you already, for such is His function | given Him by God. Now must you share His function and forgive whom He |
| W2:224.1 | well I give the world. There is no gift but this that can be either | given or received. This is reality, and only this. This is illusion's |
| W2:225.1 | love for me. For giving and receiving are the same, and You have | given all Your love to me. I must return it, for I want it mine in |
| W2:230.1 | In peace I was created. And in peace do I remain. It is not | given me to change my Self. How merciful is God my Father, that when |
| W2:230.2 | Father, I seek the peace You gave as mine in my creation. What was | given then must be here now, for my creation was apart from time and |
| W2:WS.1 | thoughts that have been born in time will end as well. God's Word is | given every mind which thinks that it has separate thoughts and will |
| W2:WS.2 | The thought of peace was | given to God's Son the instant that his mind had thought of war. |
| W2:WS.2 | of war. There was no need for such a thought before, for peace was | given without opposite and merely was. But when the mind is split, |
| W2:WS.4 | in which there is no sorrow, for it holds a hint of all the glory | given us by God. The grass is pushing through the soil, the trees are |
| W2:231.2 | Him is Heaven. This we seek. And only this is what it will be | given us to find. |
| W2:234.2 | received, for Your eternal patience, and the Word which You have | given us that we are saved. |
| W2:236.1 | tell me what to think and what to do and feel. And yet it has been | given me to serve whatever purpose I perceive in it. My mind can only |
| W2:WIW.3 | have been born instead. And now they go to find what has been | given them to seek. Their aim is to fulfill the purpose which the |
| W2:WIW.4 | redirected. Sounds become the call of God. And all perception can be | given a new purpose by the One Whom God appointed Savior to the |
| W2:245.2 | Word, Whose Love we recognize because we share the Word that He has | given unto us. |
| W2:WIB.3 | can never fear. Made to be fearful, must the body serve the purpose | given it. But we can change the purpose which the body will obey by |
| W2:266.2 | each of us, united in the holy Love of God. How many saviors God has | given us! How can we lose the way to Him, when He has filled the |
| W2:266.2 | to Him, when He has filled the world with those who point to Him and | given us the sight to look on them? |
| W2:267.1 | Now my mind is healed, and all I need to save the world is | given me. Each heartbeat brings me peace; each breath infuses me with |
| W2:269.1 | to become the way to show me my mistakes and look beyond them. It is | given me to find a new perception through the Guide You gave to me |
| W2:WIC.3 | has reality in truth. The rest is dreams. Yet will these dreams be | given unto Christ to fade before His glory and reveal your holy Self, |
| W2:272.1 | memory can satisfy Your Son? I will accept no less than You have | given me. I am surrounded by Your Love, forever still, forever |
| W2:273.1 | mine,” and nothing can intrude upon the peace that God Himself has | given to His Son. |
| W2:274.2 | this day to Him and there will be no fear today because the day is | given unto Love. |
| W2:275.2 | to think, what words to give the world. The safety that I bring is | given me. Father, Your Voice protects all things through me. |
| W2:276.1 | in this His Son was born. Let us accept His Fatherhood, and all is | given us. Deny we were created in His Love, and we deny our Self, to |
| W2:276.2 | mine. And it is this that I would speak to all my brothers, who are | given me to cherish as my own, as I am loved and blessed and saved by |
| W2:WIHS.1 | dreams, perception leads to knowledge through the grace that God has | given Him, to be His gift to everyone who turns to Him for truth. |
| W2:284.2 | Father, what You have | given cannot hurt, and grief and pain must be impossible. Let me not |
| W2:286.1 | conflict been resolved. In You is everything I hope to find already | given me. Your peace is mine. My heart is quiet and my mind at rest. |
| W2:288.1 | You. My brother is my savior. Let me not attack the savior You have | given me. But let me honor him who bears Your Name and so remember |
| W2:290.2 | You cannot fail to hear me, Father. What I ask have You already | given me, and I am sure that I will see my happiness today. |
| W2:291.1 | we look upon today! What holiness we see surrounding us! And it is | given us to recognize it is a holiness in which we share; it is the |
| W2:295.2 | My Father, Christ has asked a gift of me, and one I give that it be | given me. Help me to use the eyes of Christ today and thus allow the |

| W2:303.2 | to save me from the evil self I made. He is the Self that You have | given me. He is but what I really am in truth. He is the Son You love |
| W2:304.2 | thus receive salvation for the world. It is Your gift, my Father, | given me to offer to Your holy Son that he may find again the memory |
| W2:305.2 | Father, the peace of Christ is | given us because it is Your will that we be saved. Help us today but |
| W2:316.1 | and leave no shadow on the holy mind my Father loves. His grace is | given me in every gift a brother has received throughout all time and |
| W2:316.1 | in where I am truly welcome and at home among the gifts that God has | given me. |

| W2:319.2 | its totality. What aim but the salvation of the world could You have | given me? And what but this could be the will my Self has shared with |
| W2:320.1 | strength and love in earth and Heaven. I am he to whom all this is | given. I am he in whom the power of my Father's Will abides. |
| W2:320.2 | me. There is no limit on Your Will. And so all power has been | given to Your Son. |
| W2:WICR.2 | God's thoughts are | given all the power that Their own Creator has. For He would add to |
| W2:332.2 | the world again today. Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has | given us the means to set it free. Father, we would release it now. |
| W2:332.2 | Father, we would release it now. For as we offer freedom, it is | given us. And we would not remain as prisoners while You hold out our |
| W2:333.1 | as it is, where it is thought to be, in the reality which has been | given it, and with the purpose that the mind accorded it. For only |
| W2:334.1 | This is my choice today. And so I go to find the treasures God has | given me. |
| W2:337.1 | suffering. And only happiness can be my state, for only happiness is | given me. What must I do to know all this is mine? I must accept |
| W2:338.2 | will have thoughts that will frighten me until I learn that You have | given me the only Thought which leads me to salvation. Mine alone |
| W2:WIM.2 | A miracle contains the gift of grace, for it is | given and received as one. And thus it illustrates the law of truth |
| W2:342.1 | plan to save me from the hell I made. It is not real. And You have | given me the means to prove its unreality to me. The key is in my |
| W2:343.1 | for me as well as You. I too must give, and so all things are | given unto me forever and forever. As I was created, I remain. Your |
| W2:343.2 | are free. Salvation has no cost. It is a gift that must be freely | given and received, and it is this that we would learn today. |
| W2:345.1 | which can be recognized and seen to work. The miracles I give are | given back in just the form I need to help me with the problems I |
| W2:349.1 | law of love and give what I would find and make my own. It will be | given me because I have chosen it as the gift I want to give. Father, |
| W2:WAI.3 | our joint forgiveness is redeemed. And this, our gift, is therefore | given us. We look on everyone as brothers and perceive all things as |
| W2:352.1 | blind. Yet love, reflected in forgiveness here, reminds me You have | given me a way to find Your peace again. I am redeemed when I elect |
| W2:FL.2 | His is the only way to find the peace that God has | given us. It is His way that everyone must travel in the end, because |

| W2:FL.4 | It is our function to remember Him on earth, as it is | given us to be His own completion in reality. So let us not forget |
| W2:FL.4 | to us. In him resides salvation, offered us through our forgiveness | given unto him. |

| M:4.25 | in this context. They would be most inappropriate here. What God has | given is so far beyond our curriculum that learning but disappears in |
| M:4.25 | that they bring, for that is “true learning” in the world. It is | given to the teachers of God to bring the glad tidings of complete |

| M:5.9 | to heal the sick but to remind them of the remedy God has already | given them. It is not their hands that heal. It is not their voice |
| M:5.9 | voice that speaks the Word of God. They merely give what has been | given them. Very gently they call to their brothers to turn away from |
| M:6.2 | The instant it is welcome it is there. Where healing has been | given, it will be received. And what is time before the gifts of God? |
| M:6.3 | function to give them. Once they have done that, they have also | given the outcome, for that is part of the gift. No one can give if |

| M:7.2 | course to follow. He must use his reason to tell himself that he has | given the problem to One Who cannot fail, and recognize that his own |
| M:7.5 | real basis for doubt about the outcome of any problem that has been | given to God's Teacher for resolution is always self-doubt. And that |

| M:9.1 | but these are generally special cases. By far the majority are | given a slowly-evolving training program in which as many previous |
| M:10.5 | is his benefit. His sense of care is gone, for he has none. He has | given it away, along with judgment. He gave himself to Him Whose |
| M:10.6 | he knows that these things need not be. Not one is true. For he has | given up their cause, and they, which never were but the effects of |
| M:13.8 | make must mean in terms of cost. Decide for God, and everything is | given you at no cost at all. Decide against Him, and you choose |

| M:20.3 | necessary condition for finding the peace of God. More than this, | given forgiveness there must be peace. For what except attack will |
| M:20.5 | is our course explained. In this one sentence is our practicing | given its one direction. And in this the Holy Spirit's whole |
| M:21.3 | this world. If the prayer of the heart asks for this, this will be | given because this will be received. It is impossible that the prayer |
| M:22.2 | rare. The teacher of God may have accepted the function God has | given him long before he has learned all that his acceptance holds |
| M:22.7 | does he stand apart from God, determining where healing should be | given and where it should be withheld. Now can he say with God, “This |
| M:23.4 | His name is to give thanks for all the gifts that God has | given you. And gratitude to God becomes the way in which He is |

| M:25.4 | Spirit must be given to weakness, for what is withheld from love is | given to fear and will be fearful in consequence. |
| M:25.5 | ego's defenses here, although they are not particularly subtle. Yet, | given a remaining wish to be deceived, deception is made easy. Now |
| M:28.6 | thought of murder is replaced with blessing. Judgment is laid by and | given Him Whose function judgment is. And in His Final Judgment is |
| M:29.4 | ignorance, this image assumes it knows all things because you have | given that belief to it. Such is your teaching and the teaching of |
| M:29.5 | that he does not have is deceiving himself. Yet to accept the power | given him by God is but to acknowledge his Creator and accept His |
| M:29.5 | when and where you can, you can be confident that wisdom will be | given you when you need it. Prepare for this each morning, remember |
| M:29.6 | attractive to you, He will respond with evil? Hardly! For God has | given Him the power to translate your prayers of the heart into His |
| M:29.7 | you, what you perceive as your weakness is but illusion. And He has | given you the means to prove it so. Ask all things of His Teacher, |
| M:29.7 | to prove it so. Ask all things of His Teacher, and all things are | given you. Not in the future but immediately—now. God does not |

| Tx:19.87 | Will of God. Here is the babe of Bethlehem reborn. And everyone who | gives him shelter will follow him, not to the cross, but to the |
| Tx:19.101 | you share it. And all the pity and forgiveness that would heal it | gives way to fear. Brothers, you need forgiveness of each other, for |
| Tx:19.109 | redeemed give joy because they have been healed of pain. Everyone | gives as he receives, but he must choose what it will be that he |
| Tx:19.109 | be that he receives. And he will recognize his choice by what he | gives and what is given him. Nor is it given anything in hell or |
| Tx:19.110 | the sure protection of his Father. Here is the only purpose that | gives this world and the long journey through this world whatever |
| Tx:20.28 | by the Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you give, you gain. He | gives no power to sin, and therefore it has none; nor to its results |
| Tx:20.28 | things have not occurred because the Holy Spirit sees them not and | gives no power to their seeming source. Thus would He keep you free |
| Tx:20.28 | them. Being without illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit merely | gives everything to God, Who has already given and received all that |
| Tx:20.29 | him as he is, and what is yours shines from him to you. Your savior | gives you only love, but what you would receive of him is up to you. |
| Tx:20.75 | nothing are all projections made. For it is the projection which | gives the “nothing” all the meaning that it holds. |
| Tx:21.5 | gentle lessons are acquired joyously and are remembered gladly. What | gives you happiness you want to learn and not forget. It is not this |
| Tx:21.5 | happy learners yet because you still remain uncertain that vision | gives you more than judgment does, and you have learned that both you |
| Tx:21.12 | can see, for that same song they sing in honor of their Creator | gives praise to them as well. The blindness which they made will not |
| Tx:21.13 | to joy; the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit for which He | gives you everything; the very little on which salvation rests; the |
| Tx:21.39 | Think you the Holy Spirit is concerned with this? He | gives not what it is His purpose to lead you from. You think He would |
| Tx:21.39 | the other has disappeared from sight. Nor is it possible that what | gives light be one with what depends on darkness to be seen. Neither |
| Tx:21.67 | one with It, it must be given you to give what It has given and | gives still. Spend but an instant in the glad acceptance of what is |
| Tx:21.68 | The gratitude he offers you reminds you of the thanks your Father | gives you for completing Him. And here alone does reason tell you |
| Tx:22.18 | the eternal cannot change. But sorrow can be turned to joy, for time | gives way to the eternal. Only the timeless must remain unchanged, |
| Tx:23.43 | of what you want—to take a little and give up the rest. Salvation | gives up nothing. It is complete for everyone. Let the idea of |
| Tx:24.15 | are, how can you know the truth? What answer that the Holy Spirit | gives can reach you, when it is your specialness to which you listen |
| Tx:24.18 | But be you certain that the truth is just the same in both. It | gives no different messages and has one meaning. And it is one you |
| Tx:24.46 | in your own. Christ's hand holds all His brothers in Himself. He | gives them vision for their sightless eyes and sings to them of |
| Tx:24.70 | want to be yourself. It is the means to make your wish come true. It | gives the eyes with which you look on it, the hands that feel it, and |
| Tx:25.1 | cannot be apart from what is at the very center of your life. What | gives you life cannot be housed in death. No more can you. Christ is |
| Tx:25.6 | is it faithful to your purpose from which it never separates nor | gives the slightest witness unto anything the purpose in your mind |
| Tx:25.13 | For one thing is sure—the way you see, and long have seen, | gives no support to base your future hopes and no suggestions of |
| Tx:25.46 | —His use of what you made, to heal instead of harm. To each He | gives a special function in salvation he alone can fill—a part for |
| Tx:25.52 | And if but one Thought of His is true, then all beliefs the world | gives any meaning to are false and make no sense at all. This is the |
| Tx:25.61 | which salvation rests, the vantage point from which the Holy Spirit | gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your special |
| Tx:25.82 | knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight the Holy Spirit | gives. |
| Tx:26.5 | illusion merely ask that they might see a purpose in the world that | gives it sense and makes it meaningful. Without your special function |
| Tx:26.7 | every instant can you be reborn and given life again. His holiness | gives life to you, who cannot die because his sinlessness is known to |
| Tx:26.25 | love could need forgiveness. And what is charity within the world | gives way to simple justice past the gate that opens into Heaven. No |
| Tx:26.51 | to the truth? Illusions are illusions and are false. Your preference | gives them no reality. Not one is true in any way, and all must yield |
| Tx:26.53 | Nothing | gives meaning where no meaning is. And truth needs no defense to make |
| Tx:26.66 | To get from one is to deprive them all. And yet to bless but one | gives blessing to them all as one. |
| Tx:27.23 | more innocent than he. This splits his function off from yours and | gives you both a different role. And so you cannot be perceived as |
| Tx:27.76 | Whom you see as offering both life and death to you. Brother, He | gives but life. Yet what you see as gifts your brother offers |
| Tx:27.76 | gifts your brother offers represent the gifts you dream your Father | gives to you. Let all your brother's gifts be seen in light of |
| Tx:28.12 | deprived of His effects. The instant's silence that His Son accepts | gives welcome to eternity and Him and lets Them enter where They |
| Tx:28.16 | create their cause, but they establish its causation. Thus, the Son | gives fatherhood to his Creator and receives the gift that he has |
| Tx:28.22 | that he was author of the dream, and not a figure in the dream. He | gives himself the consequences which he dreams he gave his brother. |
| Tx:29.4 | love. The body saves you, for it gets away from total sacrifice and | gives you time in which to build again your separate selves, which |
| Tx:29.20 | saving you depends his happiness. For who is savior but the one who | gives salvation? Thus he learns it must be his to give. Unless he |
| Tx:29.20 | gives salvation? Thus he learns it must be his to give. Unless he | gives, he will not know he has, for giving is the proof of having. |
| Tx:29.29 | there is no betrayal but of this. The core of dreams the Holy Spirit | gives is never one of fear. The coverings may not appear to change, |
| Tx:29.32 | upon the sacred Son of God within. Here is the role the Holy Spirit | gives to you who wait upon the Son of God and would behold him waken |
| Tx:29.36 | it seem so hard to share this dream? Because unless the Holy Spirit | gives the dream its function, it was made for hate and will continue |
| Tx:29.65 | wild? This does the child believe because he fears his thoughts and | gives them to the toys instead. And their reality becomes his own |
| Tx:30.32 | they have understood the basic law that makes decision powerful and | gives it all effects that it will ever have. It needs but two. These |
| Tx:30.35 | and through your will created everything. Not one created thing but | gives you thanks, for it is by your will that it was born. No light |
| Tx:30.41 | to fill a gap which is not there. It is not this you want. Creation | gives no separate person and no separate thing the power to complete |
| Tx:30.54 | one very simple thing—you do not want whatever you believe an idol | gives. For thus the Son of God declares that he is free of idols. And |
| Tx:30.72 | they have sinned. And so they do not merit the forgiveness that it | gives. |
| Tx:30.74 | Forgiveness recognized as merited will heal. It | gives the miracle its strength to overlook illusions. This is how you |
| Tx:30.87 | symbols which are used mean different things? The Holy Spirit's goal | gives one interpretation, meaningful to you and to your brother. Thus |
| Tx:30.91 | their unreality obscure and give to them reality instead. And Heaven | gives no answer to the prayer, nor can a miracle be given you to heal |
| Tx:30.92 | given you unless you want it. Choose what you would heal, and He Who | gives all miracles has not been given freedom to bestow His gifts |
| Tx:31.15 | What you would choose between is not a choice and | gives but the illusion it is free, for it will have one outcome |
| Tx:31.29 | no thoughts. It has no power to learn, to pardon, nor enslave. It | gives no orders that the mind need serve nor sets conditions that it |
| Tx:31.49 | born of fear. What is a concept but a thought to which its maker | gives a meaning of his own? Concepts maintain the world. But they |
| W1:16.2 | more self-contradictory concept than that of “idle thoughts.” What | gives rise to the perception of a whole world can hardly be called |
| W1:27.1 | Today's idea expresses something stronger than mere determination. It | gives vision priority among your desires. You may feel hesitant about |
| W1:42.1 | it is the Will of God. It is His strength, not your own, that | gives you power. And it is His gift to you, rather than your own, |
| W1:42.2 | God is indeed your strength. And what He | gives is truly given. This means that you can receive it any time and |
| W1:42.5 | Vision must be possible. God | gives truly; or, |
| W1:47.1 | such a way that only good can come of it? What is there in you that | gives you the recognition of the right solution and the guarantee |
| W1:65.2 | of peace, which you have closed upon yourself, in your own hands. It | gives you the answer to all the searching you have done since time |
| W1:66.4 | you and your happiness, but that they are actually identical. God | gives you only happiness. Therefore the function He gave you must be |
| W1:66.6 | God | gives me only happiness. He has given my function to me. Therefore my |
| W1:66.8 | The first premise is that God | gives you only happiness. This could be false, of course, but in |
| W1:66.8 | what He does not have, and He cannot have what He is not. Unless God | gives you only happiness, He must be evil. And it is this definition |
| W1:92.2 | It is as if you thought you held the match that lights the sun and | gives it all its warmth or that you had the universe imprisoned in |
| W1:92.6 | a savior and can only will for happiness and peace for everyone. It | gives its strength to everyone who asks, in limitless supply. It sees |
| W1:92.6 | It sees that lack in anyone would be a lack in all, and so it | gives its light that all may see and benefit as one. Its strength is |
| W1:97.12 | you yield to the belief that you are something else. The Holy Spirit | gives you peace today. Receive His words, and offer them to Him. |
| W1:104.7 | confidence today, aware that what belongs to us in truth is what He | gives. And we would wish for nothing else, for nothing else belongs |
| W1:105.1 | like to the gifts the world can give, in which the giver loses as he | gives the gift; the taker is the richer by his loss. These are not |
| W1:122.2 | offers you, and more. It sparkles in your eyes as you awake and | gives you joy with which to meet the day. It soothes your forehead |
| W1:122.9 | Remembering the gifts forgiveness | gives, we undertake our practicing today with hope and faith that |
| W1:123.6 | you give, since He receives your gifts in loving gratitude and | gives them back a thousand and a hundred thousand more than they were |
| W1:124.5 | We see it in appearances of pain, and pain | gives way to peace. We see it in the frantic, in the sad and the |
| W1:126.7 | as the means by which it is attained, must heal the mind that | gives, for giving is receiving. What remains as unreceived has not |
| W1:126.13 | and His Love. And what you hear of Him you will believe, for what He | gives will be received by you. |
| W1:129.2 | unconcerned with you, quick to avenge, and pitiless with hate. It | gives but to rescind and takes away all things that you have |
| W1:135.1 | defense can save himself? And herein lies the folly of defense—it | gives illusions full reality and then attempts to handle them as |
| W1:137.2 | apart from all the rest to suffer what the others do not feel. It | gives the body final power to make the separation real and keep the |
| W1:137.3 | does his Self appear to be dismembered and without the unity that | gives it life. But healing is accomplished as he sees the body has no |
| W1:151.10 | that you have placed in pain, disaster, suffering, and loss. He | gives you vision which can look beyond these grim appearances and can |
| W1:153.2 | The world | gives rise but to defensiveness. For threat brings anger, anger makes |
| W1:154.8 | them. No one can receive and understand he has received until he | gives. For in the giving is his own acceptance of what he received. |
| W1:154.11 | with His own, that we may be the true receivers of the gifts He | gives. |
| W1:159.10 | an instant dream with Him. His dream awakens us to truth. His vision | gives the means for a return to our unlost and everlasting sanctity |
| W1:162.3 | with the truth before him always. He will save the world because he | gives the world what he receives each time he practices the words of |
| W1:163.5 | would have him be. His epitaph, which death itself has written, | gives no name to him, for he has passed to dust. It says but this: |
| W1:164.2 | increasingly is more and more distinct—an ancient call to which He | gives an ancient answer. You will recognize them both. For they are |
| W1:164.3 | How holy is your practicing today, as Christ | gives you His sight and hears for you and answers in your name the |
| W1:164.3 | than the world are clear to you who will today accept the gifts He | gives. |
| W1:164.9 | if you acknowledge them. You may not see the value your acceptance | gives the world. But this you surely want—you can exchange all |
| W1:166.1 | are given you. God's trust in you is limitless. He knows His Son. He | gives without exception, holding nothing back that can contribute to |
| W1:167.8 | awake. He does not sleep, and His creations cannot share what He | gives not nor make conditions which He does not share with them. The |
| W1:168.6 | to meet us as we come to Him, for what He has prepared for us He | gives and we receive. Such is His Will because He loves His Son. To |
| W1:169.14 | the world, what could be more than what we ask this day of Him Who | gives the grace we ask as it was given Him? |
| W1:181.2 | Perception has a focus. It is this which | gives consistency to what you see. Change but this focus, and what |
| W1:182.9 | He holds the might of Heaven in His hand and calls them friend, and | gives His strength to them that they may see He would be Friend to |
| W1:182.12 | denied. The holy Child remains with you. His home is yours. Today He | gives you His defenselessness, and you accept it in exchange for all |
| W1:183.1 | yours. To call upon His Name is but to call upon your own. A father | gives his son his name, and thus identifies the son with him. His |
| W1:183.12 | but the Son of God who calls upon his Father. And his Father's Voice | gives answer in his Father's holy Name. In this eternal, still |
| W1:185.13 | any gift of God has been requested and received by anyone. God | gives but to unite. To take away is meaningless to Him. And when it |
| W1:187.2 | seems to appear is changed in giving. Yet it must return to him who | gives. Nor can the form it takes be less acceptable. It must be more. |
| W1:187.7 | choose to see all suffering as what it is. The thought of sacrifice | gives rise to all the forms that suffering appears to take. And |
| W1:188.3 | leave a blessing with it which remains forever and forever. What it | gives must be eternal. It removes all thoughts of the ephemeral and |
| W1:191.5 | his true Identity is truly saved. And his salvation is the gift he | gives to everyone in gratitude to Him Who pointed out the way to |
| W1:193.2 | perception ceases. God does not perceive at all. Yet it is He Who | gives the means by which perception is made true and beautiful enough |
| W1:194.7 | What worry can beset the one who | gives his future to the loving hands of God? What can he suffer? What |
| W1:195.10 | but an aspect of the love which is the Source of all creation. God | gives thanks to you, His Son, for being what you are—His own |
| W1:197.7 | Thank your Self for this, for He is grateful only unto God, and He | gives thanks for you unto Himself. To everyone who lives will Christ |
| W1:198.3 | itself the truth. Yet does it point to where the truth must be and | gives direction with the certainty of God Himself. It is a dream in |
| W1:198.5 | in your hand? Is it not more intelligent to thank the One Who | gives salvation, and accept His gift with gratitude? And is it not a |
| W1:199.8 | your mind to this? Then practice well the thought the Holy Spirit | gives you for today. Your brothers stand released with you in it; the |
| W1:R6.10 | of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of peace, and | gives our thoughts whatever meaning they may have. |
| W1:214.1 | gone; the future is not yet. Now am I freed from both. For what God | gives can only be for good. And I accept but what He gives as what |

| W2:WILJ.1 | from a now corrected mind. And with this holy sight, perception | gives a silent blessing and then disappears, its goal accomplished |
| W2:336.1 | Knowledge is restored after perception first is changed and then | gives way entirely to what remains forever past its highest reach. |

| W2:349.1 | I want to give. Father, Your gifts are mine. Each one that I accept | gives me a miracle to give. And giving as I would receive, I learn |
| W2:349.2 | Our Father knows our needs. He | gives us grace to meet them all. And so we trust in Him to send us |

| M:6.4 | for him. And it is the Holy Spirit in the mind of the giver Who | gives the gift to Him. How can it be lost ? How can it be |
| M:7.3 | for himself. The teacher of God is a miracle worker because he | gives the gifts he has received. Yet he must first accept them. He |
| M:7.4 | and it is impossible to doubt its result. This is the certainty that | gives God's teachers the power to be miracle workers, for they have |
| M:8.2 | lies. Finding truth unacceptable, the mind revolts against truth and | gives itself an illusion of victory. Finding health a burden, it |
| M:8.3 | eyes behold. It is the mind that interprets the eyes' messages and | gives them “meaning.” And this meaning does not exist in the world |

| Tx:4.30 | anything implies that you will do without it. When you associate | giving with sacrifice, then, you give only because you believe that |
| Tx:4.77 | noteworthy. The idea of preserving the body by suspension, thus | giving it the kind of limited immortality which the ego can tolerate, |
| Tx:5.5 | honors only the laws of God. To Him, getting is meaningless and | giving is all. Having everything, the Soul holds everything by giving |
| Tx:5.5 | and giving is all. Having everything, the Soul holds everything by | giving it and thus creates as the Father created. |
| Tx:5.6 | whole belief in the false association which the ego makes between | giving and losing is gone. |

| Tx:7.4 | possible. To gain you must give, not bargain. To bargain is to limit | giving, and this is not God's Will. To will with God is to create |
| Tx:7.47 | but he is not grateful to them. This is because he thinks he is | giving something to them and is not receiving something equally |
| Tx:7.72 | you can offer him. There is no way for you to have it except by | giving it. This is the law of God, and it has no exceptions. What you |
| Tx:7.74 | put them out of your mind. While you include them in it, you are | giving life to them, except there is nothing there to receive your |

| Tx:7.101 | the whole idea of sacrifice. Obey the Holy Spirit, and you will be | giving up the ego. But you will be sacrificing nothing. On the |
| Tx:7.109 | give always without any sense of loss? Does it teach him that this | giving is his joy and that God Himself thanks him for his giving? |
| Tx:7.109 | that this giving is his joy and that God Himself thanks him for his | giving? That is the only environment in which you can be happy. You |
| Tx:8.4 | whom you perceive as opponents are part of your peace, which you are | giving up by attacking them. How can you have what you give up? You |
| Tx:8.19 | are given another chance at salvation. Do not leave anyone without | giving salvation to him and receiving it yourself, for I am always |
| Tx:8.24 | to Him, because He gives of Himself, and everything belongs to Him. | Giving of your self is the function He gave you. Fulfilling it |
| Tx:8.98 | expect to receive them? [The Holy Spirit is totally incapable of | giving you anything that does not come from God. His task is not to |

| Tx:8.116 | it cannot be perceived as loss, and the reciprocal relationship of | giving and receiving will be recognized. The price will then be set |
| Tx:8.117 | with God. God's laws are always fair and perfectly consistent. By | giving you receive. But to receive is to accept, not to get. It is |
| Tx:8.117 | to know you have. The recognition of having is the willingness for | giving, and only by this willingness can you recognize what you have. |

| Tx:11.11 | in yourself the means for removing it and have demonstrated this by | giving it. Fear and love are the only emotions of which you are |
| Tx:11.13 | better learn of its reality than by answering the appeal for it by | giving it? The Holy Spirit's interpretation of fear does dispel it, |
| Tx:12.56 | of light must draw you willingly, and willingness is signified by | giving. Those who accept love of you become your willing witnesses to |
| Tx:12.57 | them through all your nightmares and have been faithful in your | giving, for you were not alone. Even in sleep has Christ protected |
| Tx:13.69 | to offer what you do not want without this penalty. The cost of | giving is receiving. Either it is a penalty from which you suffer or |
| Tx:13.70 | he did not choose to free his brother and enter light with him. By | giving power to nothing, he threw away the joyous opportunity to |
| Tx:13.88 | your Father, He will give Himself to you as He has always done. | Giving Himself is all He knows, and so it is all knowledge. For what |
| Tx:14.2 | you know of One Who gives forever and Who knows of nothing except | giving? |
| Tx:14.35 | to where God and His Son await your recognition. They are joined in | giving you the gift of oneness, before which all separation vanishes. |
| Tx:14.50 | for ordering your thoughts. This lesson the Holy Spirit teaches by | giving you shining examples to show you that your way of ordering is |
| Tx:14.60 | therefore in the past, but its influence determines the present by | giving it whatever meaning it holds for you. Your learning gives the |
| Tx:15.13 | instant? It is as short for your brother as it is for you. Practice | giving this blessed instant of freedom to all who are enslaved by |
| Tx:15.13 | The Holy Spirit gives their blessed instant to you through your | giving it. As you give it, He offers it to you. |
| Tx:15.14 | to give what you would receive of Him, for you join with Him in | giving. In the crystal cleanness of the release you give is your |

| Tx:15.93 | that sacrifice of any kind is nothing but a limitation imposed on | giving. And by this limitation, you have limited acceptance of the |

| Tx:16.49 | he would prefer. And he feels guilty for the “sin” of taking and of | giving nothing of value in return. For how much value can he place |
| Tx:16.51 | specialness. The demand for specialness and the perception of the | giving of specialness as an act of love would make love hateful. And |
| Tx:16.77 | reality apart from your receiving them. Your receiving completes His | giving. You will receive because it is His Will to give. He gave the |

| Tx:17.33 | and as they operate, they bring it to you. Every defense operates by | giving gifts, and the gift is always a miniature of the thought |
| Tx:17.42 | know it to be true. Let us ascend in peace together to the Father by | giving Him ascendance in our minds. We will gain everything by giving |
| Tx:17.42 | by giving Him ascendance in our minds. We will gain everything by | giving Him the power and the glory and keeping no illusions of where |

| Tx:19.66 | And keep you not apart from what is offered you in gratitude for | giving peace its home in Heaven. Send forth to all the world the |
| Tx:19.106 | free together, as you offer to the Holy Spirit this same gift. And | giving it, receive it of Him in return for what you gave. He leadeth |
| Tx:20.28 | to do so. For you give power as the laws of this world interpret | giving—as you give, you lose. It is not up to you to give power at |
| Tx:20.29 | own salvation. And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a lesson in | giving, as the Holy Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of |
| Tx:21.84 | has no meaning. Happiness must be constant because it is attained by | giving up the wish for the inconstant. Joy cannot be perceived except |
| Tx:21.88 | of something he believes holds out some promise of the power of | giving it. He may be wrong in what he asks, where, and of what. Yet |
| Tx:21.88 | For he does not desire it while he remains uncertain, and God's | giving must be incomplete unless it is received. |
| Tx:24.72 | wishes it were so. And thus does his perception serve his wish by | giving it appearances of truth. Yet can perception serve another |
| Tx:25.14 | yet your hope that they may still be here prevents you still from | giving up the hopeless and unrewarding task you set yourself. Can it |
| Tx:25.21 | all His praise is given not to you. For what you give is His, and | giving it you learn to understand His gift to you. And give the Holy |
| Tx:25.87 | alike. It is received and given equally. It is awareness that | giving and receiving are the same. Because it does not make the same |

| W1:23.7 | I can escape from the world by | giving up attack thoughts about _____. |
| W1:28.1 | Today we are really | giving specific application to the idea for yesterday. In these |
| W1:47.7 | the correction of your errors, but it is hardly a sufficient one in | giving you the confidence which you need and to which you are |
| W1:47.9 | any disturbance. Remember that peace is your right because you are | giving your trust to the strength of God. |
| W1:52.4 | Let me learn to give the past away, realizing that in so doing I am | giving up nothing. |
| W1:55.4 | [23] I can escape from the world by | giving up attack thoughts. Herein lies my salvation, and nowhere |
| W1:99.6 | Source it knows. This is the thought whose function is to save by | giving you its function as your own. |
| W1:105.3 | This strange distortion of what | giving means pervades all levels of the world you see. It strips all |
| W1:105.3 | A major learning goal this course has set is to reverse your view of | giving, so you can receive. For giving has become a source of fear, |
| W1:105.3 | has set is to reverse your view of giving, so you can receive. For | giving has become a source of fear, and so you would avoid the only |
| W1:105.5 | True | giving is creation. It extends the limitless to the unlimited, |
| W1:105.5 | It adds by letting what cannot contain itself fulfill its aim of | giving everything it has away, securing it forever for itself. |
| W1:106.8 | Today we practice | giving, not the way you understand it now, but as it is. Each hour's |
| W1:106.10 | for which you came and which will free the world from thinking | giving is a way to lose. And so the world becomes ready to understand |
| W1:106.12 | your receiving it to give away, so you can teach the world what | giving means by listening and learning it of Him. Do not forget today |
| W1:108.4 | Here are both | giving and receiving seen as different aspects of one Thought Whose |
| W1:108.6 | To learn that | giving and receiving are the same has special usefulness because it |
| W1:108.7 | Today we practice with the special case of | giving and receiving. We will use this simple lesson in the obvious |
| W1:108.9 | To give and to receive are one in truth. I will receive what I am | giving now. |
| W1:111.3 | the gift of God to me. My weakness is the dark His gift dispels by | giving me His strength to take its place. |
| W1:121.9 | The unforgiving mind does not believe that | giving and receiving are the same. Yet we will try to learn today |
| W1:126.4 | from you committed it. And if you then are gracious unto him by | giving him what he does not deserve, the gift is no more yours than |
| W1:126.7 | means by which it is attained, must heal the mind that gives, for | giving is receiving. What remains as unreceived has not been given, |
| W1:129.1 | else to hope for, you will only be depressed. Our emphasis is not on | giving up the world but on exchanging it for what is far more |
| W1:136.15 | It is found at any time—today, if you will choose to practice | giving welcome to the truth. This is our aim today. And we will give |
| W1:137.13 | for the peace of God. Is not a minute of the hour worth the | giving to receive a gift like this? Is not a little time a small |
| W1:152.14 | Then will we wait in silence, | giving up all self-deceptions as we humbly ask our Self that He |
| W1:153.15 | a form we will maintain for quite a while. We will begin each day by | giving our attention to the daily thought as long as possible. Five |
| W1:154.3 | you. And that One Voice appoints your function and relays it to you, | giving you the strength to understand it, do what it entails, and to |
| W1:154.7 | An earthly messenger fulfills his role by | giving all the messages away. The messengers of God perform their |
| W1:154.7 | messages as for themselves and show they understand the messages by | giving them away. They choose no roles that are not given them by His |
| W1:154.8 | receive and understand he has received until he gives. For in the | giving is his own acceptance of what he received. |
| W1:154.10 | can speak to us and for us, joining in One Voice the getting and the | giving of God's Word, the giving and receiving of His Will. |
| W1:154.10 | joining in One Voice the getting and the giving of God's Word, the | giving and receiving of His Will. |
| W1:154.11 | We practice | giving Him what He would have that we may recognize His gifts to us. |
| W1:159.2 | now by opening the storehouse of your mind where they are laid and | giving them away. |
| W1:162.4 | and all His Love to be distributed to all the world, increased in | giving, kept complete because its sharing is unlimited. And thus you |
| W1:166.12 | offer you, you now must learn to give. This is the lesson that His | giving holds, for He has saved you from the solitude you sought to |
| W1:166.15 | the touch of Christ. Such is your mission now. For God entrusts the | giving of His gifts to all who have received them. He has shared His |
| W1:168.5 | Whom all error is unknown is yet the One Who answers our mistakes by | giving us the means to lay them down and rise to Him in gratitude and |
| W1:183.11 | become his own. He makes his claim to all his Father gave, is | giving still, and will forever give. He calls on Him to let all |
| W1:187.1 | No one can give unless he has. In fact, | giving is proof of having. We have made this point before. What seems |
| W1:187.1 | that you have lost what you possessed. The truth maintains that | giving will increase what you possess. |
| W1:187.2 | Perhaps the form in which the thought seems to appear is changed in | giving. Yet it must return to him who gives. Nor can the form it |
| W1:187.3 | miracles it brings to everyone you look upon. Herein is the idea of | giving clarified and given meaning. Now you can perceive that by your |
| W1:187.3 | clarified and given meaning. Now you can perceive that by your | giving is your store increased. |
| W1:187.4 | Protect all things you value by the act of | giving them away, and you are sure that you will never lose them. |
| W1:187.5 | The thought remains and grows in strength as it is reinforced by | giving. Thoughts extend as they are shared, for they cannot be lost. |
| W1:187.6 | Never forget you give but to yourself. Who understands what | giving means must laugh at the idea of sacrifice. Nor can he fail to |
| W1:188.3 | by. All of its gifts are given everyone, and everyone unites in | giving thanks to you who give and you who have received. |
| W1:188.5 | Who recognizes it within himself must give it. And the means for | giving it are in his understanding. He forgives because he recognized |
| W1:191.1 | well is all the world released. You do not see what you have done by | giving to the world the role of jailer to the Son of God. What could |
| W1:193.3 | in God. Thus He encompassed what He could not see nor understand by | giving of His Love and making Answer to a question which, though |
| W1:197.5 | realize His gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, forever | giving out, extending love, and adding to your never-ending joy, |
| W2:225.1 | Father, I must return Your love for me. For | giving and receiving are the same, and You have given all Your love |
| W2:249.1 | The world becomes a place of joy, abundance, charity, and endless | giving. It is now so like to Heaven that it quickly is transformed |
| W2:255.1 | to finding what my Father wills for me, accepting it as mine and | giving it to all my Father's Sons, along with me. |
| W2:259.1 | what but this could be the source of fear, obscuring God's creation, | giving love the attributes of fear and of attack? |
| W2:282.2 | is mine. Such is the truth. And can the truth be changed by merely | giving it another name? The name of fear is simply a mistake. Let me |
| W2:305.1 | to be the home of fear. For Love has come and healed the world by | giving it Christ's peace. |
| W2:311.1 | you have made against yourself and re-establish peace of mind by | giving you God's Judgment of His Son. |
| W2:315.1 | the way to God becomes my savior, pointing out the way to me and | giving me his certainty that what he learned is surely mine as well. |
| W2:323.1 | Love come streaming in to his awareness, healing him of pain and | giving him Your own eternal joy. Such is the “sacrifice” You ask of |
| W2:332.1 | the light shine through the dream of darkness, offering it hope and | giving it the means to realize the freedom that is its inheritance. |
| W2:344.1 | This is Your law, my Father, not my own. I have not understood what | giving means and thought to save what I desired for myself alone. And |
| W2:349.1 | are mine. Each one that I accept gives me a miracle to give. And | giving as I would receive, I learn Your healing miracles belong to me. |
| W2:WAI.3 | will return when we have done our part. We are concerned only with | giving welcome to the truth. |
| M:I.1 | seems as if the teacher and the learner are separated, the teacher | giving something to the learner rather than to himself. Further, the |
| M:2.5 | In the teaching-learning situation, each one learns that | giving and receiving are the same. The demarcations they have drawn |
| M:4.7 | be called a “period of relinquishment.” If this is interpreted as | giving up the desirable, it will engender enormous conflict. Few |
| M:6.3 | the gift. No one can give if he is concerned with the result of the | giving. That is a limitation on the giving itself, and neither the |
| M:6.3 | concerned with the result of the giving. That is a limitation on the | giving itself, and neither the giver nor the receiver would have the |
| M:6.3 | nor the receiver would have the gift. Trust is an essential part of | giving; in fact, it is the part that makes sharing possible, the part |
| M:6.3 | it to be sure it is used as the giver deems appropriate? Such is not | giving but imprisoning. |
| M:6.4 | the gift that makes it truly given. And it is trust that makes true | giving possible. Healing is the change of mind that the Holy Spirit |

| M:9.2 | easier as the teacher of God learns to give up his own judgment. The | giving up of judgment, the obvious prerequisite for hearing God's |
| M:10.2 | God to realize not that he should not judge, but that he cannot. In | giving up judgment, he merely gives up what he did not have. He gives |
| M:10.2 | not have. He gives up an illusion; or better, he has an illusion of | giving up. He has actually merely become more honest. Recognizing |
| M:13.4 | God's teachers can have no regret on | giving up the pleasures of the world. Is it a sacrifice to give up |
| M:13.4 | world. Is it a sacrifice to give up pain? Does an adult resent the | giving up of children's toys? Does one whose vision has already |
| M:13.6 | do not be mistaken about what sacrifice means. It always means the | giving up of what you want. And what, oh teacher of God, is it that |

| Tx:15.31 | littleness that binds the host of God to guilt and weakness with the | glad awareness of the glory that is in him. My birth in you is your |

| Tx:31.94 | Let us be | glad that we can walk the world and find so many chances to perceive |
| W1:11.1 | the concept that your thoughts determine the world you see. Be | glad indeed to practice the idea in this initial form, for in this |
| W1:62.4 | Let us be | glad to begin and end this day by practicing today's idea and to use |
| W1:66.3 | the ego by listening to its attacks on truth. We will merely be | glad that we can find out what truth is. |
| W1:72.7 | save you. God made you a body. Very well. Let us accept this and be | glad. As a body, do not let yourself be deprived of what the body |
| W1:73.7 | are trying to do today. We undertake it with your blessing and your | glad accord. |
| W1:75.5 | the world. Begin the longer practice periods by telling yourself the | glad tidings of your release: |
| W1:76.2 | Today we will be | glad you cannot prove it. For if you could, you would forever seek |
| W1:92.8 | again. The light of strength is constant, sure as love, forever | glad to give itself away because it cannot give but to itself. No one |
| W1:97.6 | The Holy Spirit will be | glad to take five minutes of each hour from your hands and carry them |
| W1:98.10 | the world with hope and gladness. Do not lose one chance to be the | glad receiver of His gifts, that you may give them to the world today. |
| W1:98.12 | spend again with Him. Repeat today's idea while you wait for the | glad time to come to you again. Repeat it often, and do not forget |
| W1:107.14 | And yet you will be | glad to look again upon this world. For you will bring with you the |
| W1:108.3 | that brings your peace of mind to other minds, to share it and be | glad that they are one with you and with themselves. This is the |
| W1:109.7 | hour that you take your rest today, a tired mind is suddenly made | glad, a bird with broken wings begins to sing, a stream long dry |
| W1:118.2 | peace and joy are mine. Today I will accept God's peace and joy in | glad exchange for all the substitutes which I have made for happiness |
| W1:123.2 | all the gains which you have made; the gifts you have received. Be | glad today in loving thankfulness your Father has not left you to |
| W1:123.3 | Son He loves is changeless as Himself. Be grateful you are saved. Be | glad you have a function in salvation to fulfill. Be thankful that |
| W1:126.10 | in understanding what it really means. Be willing to be taught. Be | glad to hear the Voice of truth and healing speak to you, and you |
| W1:127.7 | Let us together, then, be | glad to give some time to God today and understand there is no better |
| W1:131.5 | Be | glad that search you must. Be glad as well to learn you search for |
| W1:131.5 | Be glad that search you must. Be | glad as well to learn you search for Heaven and must find the goal |
| W1:131.8 | itself is not of Him. He did not make two minds, with Heaven as the | glad effect of one and earth the other's sorry outcome that is |
| W1:137.9 | Healing, forgiveness, and the | glad exchange of all the world of sorrow for a world where sadness |
| W1:152.11 | from hell are joyously accepted as our own. Now do we join in | glad acknowledgment that lies are false and only truth is true. |
| W1:164.2 | answers for you, echoing your Self, using your voice to give His | glad consent, accepting your deliverance for you. |
| W1:169.13 | Be grateful to return, as you were | glad to go an instant and accept the gifts that grace provided you. |
| W1:184.15 | a shadow we have tried to cast across Your Own Reality. And we are | glad and thankful we were wrong. All our mistakes we give to You, |
| W1:191.7 | Be | glad today how very easily is hell undone. You need but tell yourself: |
| W1:196.9 | You are strong, and it is strength you want. And you are free and | glad of freedom. You have sought to be both weak and bound because |
| W1:198.5 | Is it not wiser to be | glad you hold the answer to your problems in your hand? Is it not |
| W1:198.15 | that yet would stand between this vision and our sight. And we are | glad that we have come this far and recognize that He Who brought us |
| W1:200.12 | There is no peace except the peace of God, and I am | glad and thankful it is so. |
| W1:218.1 | see the vision of my glory. Yet today I can behold this glory and be | glad. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W2:I.9 | And we believed that our insane desires were the truth. Now we are | glad that this is all undone, and we no longer think illusions true. |
| W2:226.2 | Father, my home awaits my | glad return. Your arms are open, and I hear Your Voice. What need |
| W2:227.2 | And so today we find our | glad return to Heaven, which we never really left. The Son of God |
| W2:241.2 | Your Son, who never left, returns to Heaven and his home. How | glad are we to have our sanity restored to us, and to remember that |
| W2:242.1 | For there is One Who knows all that is best for me. And He is | glad to make no choices for me but the ones that lead to God. This |
| W2:253.2 | is but Your will in perfect union with my own, which can but offer | glad assent to Yours that It may be extended to itself. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | this. Salvation asks you give it welcome. And the world awaits your | glad acceptance, which will set it free. |

| M:28.1 | the Atonement for oneself. It is the end of dreams of misery and the | glad awareness of the Holy Spirit's final dream. It is the |

| Tx:4.63 | Have you really considered how many opportunities you have to | gladden yourselves and how many of them you have refused? There is no |
| Tx:5.1 | I have told you before to think how many opportunities you have to | gladden yourselves and how many you have refused. This is exactly the |
| Tx:7.45 | conflicted mind could possibly perceive as meaningful. Fear does not | gladden. Healing does. Fear always makes exceptions. Healing never |

gladdened (1) | ||
| W2:315.1 | which I can conceive. A brother smiles upon another, and my heart is | gladdened. Someone speaks a word of gratitude or mercy, and my mind |
gladly (68) | ||
| Tx:1.87 | The miracle-worker, therefore, accepts the time-control factor | gladly because he recognizes that every collapse of time brings all |
| Tx:4.19 | The Soul is beyond humility because it recognizes its radiance and | gladly sheds its light everywhere. The meek shall inherit the earth |
| Tx:5.80 | Appeal everything you believe | gladly to God's own Higher Court, because it speaks for Him and |
| Tx:7.14 | law by creating by it. And His Sons, who create like Him, follow it | gladly, knowing that the increase of the Kingdom depends on it, just |
| Tx:7.75 | honor to the Sons of the living God and count yourselves among them | gladly. |
| Tx:7.104 | No one obeys | gladly a guide he does not trust, but this does not mean that the |

| Tx:8.41 | and if you want to share it you will. I give it willingly and | gladly, because I need you as much as you need me. |
| Tx:9.65 | Who could have done this but you? Recognize this | gladly, for in this recognition lies the realization that your |
| Tx:9.69 | of God and of yourself for you, waiting for your acceptance. Give up | gladly everything that would stand in the way of your remembering, |
| Tx:10.21 | offer Him a little place, He will lighten it so much that you will | gladly extend it. And by this extending, you will begin to remember |
| Tx:10.64 | Resurrection must compel your allegiance | gladly because it is the symbol of joy. Its whole compelling power |
| Tx:11.54 | of how to teach you what you are. Because He loves you, He will | gladly teach you what He loves, for He wills to share it. Remembering |
| Tx:12.17 | remedy is quick. Do not hide suffering from His sight, but bring it | gladly to Him. Lay before His eternal sanity all your hurt, and let |
| Tx:12.64 | not and following not the road that love points out. Love leads so | gladly! And as you follow Him, you will rejoice that you have found |
| Tx:13.72 | of guilt in place of all the happy teaching the Holy Spirit would | gladly offer him. |
| Tx:13.75 | you. Do not try to escape the gift of God which He so freely and so | gladly offers you. He offers you but what God gave Him for you. You |
| Tx:13.78 | that you would follow to salvation. He knows the way and leads you | gladly on it. With Him you will not fail to learn what God wills for |
| Tx:13.91 | you of the joy of living with your God and Father, and awaking | gladly to His love and holiness, which join together as the truth in |
| Tx:14.15 | must be shared, for therein lies everything that makes it holy. Come | gladly to the holy circle, and look out in peace on all who think |
| Tx:14.30 | enter the darkness and lighten it away. At your request He enters | gladly. He brings the light to darkness if you make the darkness open |
| Tx:14.61 | with God's glory, for in it lies His power, which He shares so | gladly with His Son. |
| Tx:14.62 | He will accept from you because you do not want it. And He will | gladly exchange each one for the bright lesson He has learned for |
| Tx:15.23 | satisfy you. It is essential that you accept the fact, and accept it | gladly, that there is no form of littleness that can ever content |
| Tx:15.32 | of nothing, and unable to accept anything for yourself. But you will | gladly give, having received. The host of God need not seek to find |
| Tx:15.38 | you will recognize in the holy instant in which you willingly and | gladly give over every plan but His. For there lies peace, perfectly |
| Tx:15.61 | at all. When the Son of God accepts the laws of God as what he | gladly wills, it is impossible that he be bound or limited in any |
| Tx:15.69 | it is certain that, if you will look at them, you will offer them | gladly to Him. What He can make of them, you do not know, but you |
| Tx:15.80 | Hear Him | gladly and learn of Him that you have need of no special |
| Tx:16.25 | and their power and gratitude to you for their creation they offer | gladly to your teaching of yourself, who is their home. You who are |
| Tx:16.33 | They seek it desperately but not in the peace in which it would | gladly come quietly to them. And when they find the fear of death is |
| Tx:16.67 | is a place where truth and beauty wait for you. Go on to meet them | gladly, and learn how much awaits you for the simple willingness to |
| Tx:17.22 | All this you will do | gladly if you but let Him hold the spark before you to light your way |
| Tx:17.55 | is the goal, together with you. Think you not the goal itself will | gladly arrange the means for its accomplishment? It is just this same |
| Tx:17.69 | be gently turned to its use and purpose. The universe will serve it | gladly, as it serves the universe. But do not interfere. |
| Tx:20.15 | be. He will not leave you nor forsake the savior from his pain. And | gladly will you walk the way of innocence together, singing as you |
| Tx:21.5 | pain. And gentle lessons are acquired joyously and are remembered | gladly. What gives you happiness you want to learn and not forget. It |
| Tx:22.28 | to dwell in quiet here with Christ is share His vision. Quickly and | gladly is His vision given to anyone who is but willing to see his |
| Tx:22.37 | as what it is—a common state of mind, where both give errors | gladly to correction that both may happily be healed as one. |
| Tx:24.58 | Would you not | gladly realize these laws are not for you? Then see him not as |
| Tx:25.19 | pictures yours. His gentleness becomes your strength, and both will | gladly look within and see the holiness that must be there because of |
| Tx:26.83 | Your footprints lighten up the world, for where you walk forgiveness | gladly goes with you. No one on earth but offers thanks to one who |
| Tx:28.12 | its treasures to the Son of God, for whom they have been kept. How | gladly does He offer them unto the one for whom He has been given |
| Tx:29.38 | murder, grief and loss. This is the “sacrifice” salvation asks and | gladly offers peace instead of this. |
| W1:75.11 | fail to see today. And what you see will be so welcome that you will | gladly extend today forever. Say, then: |
| W1:97.11 | Offer each practice period today | gladly to Him. And He will speak to you, reminding you that you are |

| W1:122.9 | that this will be the day salvation will be ours. Earnestly and | gladly will we seek for it today, aware we hold the key within our |
| W1:122.10 | Morning and evening do we | gladly give a quarter of an hour to the search in which the end of |
| W1:130.7 | Six times today in thanks and gratitude we | gladly give five minutes to the thought which ends all compromise and |
| W1:135.21 | and it will be increased until the world is lighted up with joy. And | gladly will our brothers lay aside their cumbersome defenses which |
| W1:151.15 | Spend 15 minutes thus when you awake, and | gladly give another 15 more before you go to sleep. Your ministry |
| W1:153.12 | in his winning is the gain to everyone ensured. The game of fear is | gladly laid aside when children come to see the benefits salvation |
| W1:155.14 | His Love. In your name and His own, which are the same, we practice | gladly with this thought today: |
| W1:159.9 | have been delivered and returned to them. And they return them | gladly unto Him. |
| W1:168.2 | to all despair, for in it lies remembrance of His Love. Would He not | gladly give the means by which His Will is recognized? His grace is |
| W1:187.5 | Give | gladly. You can only gain thereby. The thought remains and grows in |
| W1:190.8 | and working havoc in your holy mind. Pain is the ransom you have | gladly paid not to be free. In pain is God denied the Son He loves. |
| W2:296.2 | one and possible of easy reach and quick accomplishment. How | gladly does the Holy Spirit come to rescue us from hell when we allow |
| W2:317.1 | I am the slave of time and human destiny. But when I willingly and | gladly go the way my Father's plan appointed me to go, then will I |
| W2:323.1 | own eternal joy. Such is the “sacrifice” You ask of me, and one I | gladly make, the only “cost” of restoration of Your memory to me for |
| W2:360.1 | Son is like to You in perfect sinlessness, and with this thought we | gladly say “Amen.” |
| W2:E.1 | Whatever troubles you, be certain that He has the answer and will | gladly give it to you if you simply turn to Him and ask it of Him. He |
| M:16.11 | Is not this an exchange that you would want? The world would | gladly make it if it knew it could be made. It is God's teachers who |
| M:18.2 | He free to teach all minds the truth of what they are, so they will | gladly be returned to Him. And now is guilt forgiven, overlooked |
| M:28.2 | misery of any kind perceived as hell. Love is no longer feared but | gladly welcomed. Idols have disappeared, and the remembrance of God |

| Tx:5.5 | by which two minds perceive their oneness and become glad. This | gladness calls to every part of the Sonship to rejoice with them and |
| Tx:5.43 | He holds the remembrance of things past and to come. He holds this | gladness gently in your minds, asking only that you increase it in |
| Tx:10.63 | follow it, not in the spirit of sacrifice and submission, but in the | gladness of freedom. |
| Tx:12.8 | you do not want the ego, you do not look upon the alternative with | gladness. You are afraid of redemption, and you believe it will kill |

| Tx:12.40 | we unite with them. The Father welcomes all of us in gladness, and | gladness is what we should offer Him. For every Son of God is given |
| Tx:12.52 | me. Every voice has a part in the song of redemption, the hymn of | gladness and thanksgiving for the light to the Creator of light. The |
| Tx:12.53 | wholeness you will see your own. And as your hymns of praise and | gladness rise to your Creator, He will return your thanks in His |
| Tx:13.32 | our love of him is your guiltlessness. But look upon yourself, and | gladness and appreciation for what you see will banish guilt forever. |
| Tx:13.36 | is gone. For you have heard the hymn of freedom rising unto Heaven. | Gladness and joy belong to God for your release, because you made it |
| Tx:13.59 | been nothing. And you will see it with them. Because you taught them | gladness and release, they will become your teachers in release and |

| Tx:17.55 | you could not share in its gladness. Yet because it is within, the | gladness, too, is yours. You are joined in purpose, but remain still |
| Tx:17.56 | fall in place because the goal is sure. And you will share the | gladness of the Sonship that it is so. As you begin to recognize and |

| Tx:19.45 | There is a hush in Heaven, a happy expectancy, a little pause of | gladness in acknowledgment of the journey's end. For Heaven knows you |

| W1:98.10 | so strong and steady they will light the world with hope and | gladness. Do not lose one chance to be the glad receiver of His |

| W1:2.1 | include everything in an area or you will introduce strain. Merely | glance easily and fairly quickly around you, trying to avoid |
| W1:7.12 | one thing in particular, but remember to omit nothing specifically. | Glance briefly at each subject, and then move on to the next. |
| W1:12.2 | quite slowly. Try to pace yourself so that the slow shifting of your | glance from one thing to another involves a fairly constant time |

| Tx:4.58 | as you look at yourselves and at each other and see in both the | glorious creations of a glorious Father. |
| Tx:4.58 | and at each other and see in both the glorious creations of a | glorious Father. |

| Tx:18.72 | apart from Him. The body is a tiny fence around a little part of a | glorious and complete idea. It draws a circle, infinitely small, |
| Tx:18.77 | kingdom. Arched high above it and surrounding it with love is the | glorious whole, which offers all its happiness and deep content to |
| Tx:29.35 | If you but knew the | glorious goal that lies beyond forgiveness, you would not keep hold |
| W1:163.9 | our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would look upon the | glorious reflection of Your love which shines in everything. We live |

glory (83) | ||
| Tx:5.21 | radiance that you must let banish the idea of darkness. His is the | glory before which dissociation falls away and the Kingdom of Heaven |
| Tx:7.50 | by your creations, which can only be created as you were. The whole | glory and perfect joy that is the Kingdom lies in you to give. Do you |
| Tx:7.81 | they belong to His beloved Sons who belong to Him. All power and | glory are yours, because the Kingdom is His. |
| Tx:7.112 | yours. He cannot have lost what you recognize, and you must have the | glory you see in him. He is a co-creator with God with you. Deny his |
| Tx:8.13 | because He created you for this. When we said, “All power and | glory are yours because the Kingdom is His,” this is what we meant. |
| Tx:8.14 | The Will of God is without limit, and all power and | glory lie within it. It is boundless in strength and in love and in |
| Tx:8.14 | Himself, you are like Him. You are part of Him Who is all power and | glory and are therefore as unlimited as He is. |
| Tx:8.15 | To what else except all power and | glory can the Holy Spirit appeal to restore God's Kingdom? His |
| Tx:8.16 | Glory be to God in the highest and to you, because He has so willed | |
| Tx:8.17 | will release your will to God's, uniting it with His power and | glory and establishing them as yours. You share them as God shares |

| Tx:8.20 | anyone, you have another opportunity to find them. Your power and | glory are in him, because they are yours. The ego tries to find them |
| Tx:8.23 | because you are part of God, Who is everything. His power and | glory are everywhere, and you cannot be excluded from them. The ego |

| Tx:8.57 | When you look upon a brother as a physical entity, his power and | glory are lost to you, and so are yours. You have attacked him, but |
| Tx:8.58 | are not of yourselves. He of Whom you are has willed your power and | glory for you, with which you can perfectly accomplish His holy will |
| Tx:9.33 | to you as well. Every Soul God created is part of you and shares His | glory with you. His Glory belongs to Him, but it is equally yours. |
| Tx:9.33 | Soul God created is part of you and shares His glory with you. His | Glory belongs to Him, but it is equally yours. You cannot, then, be |

| Tx:10.9 | and your closed eyes have not lost the ability to see. Look upon the | glory of His creation, and you will learn what God has kept for you. |
| Tx:10.27 | His Son would hide himself. Yet the Son of God cannot hide his | glory, for God wills him to be glorious and gave him the light that |
| Tx:10.31 | salvation is. You are not saved from anything, but you are saved for | glory. Glory is your inheritance, given your Soul by its Creator that |
| Tx:10.31 | is. You are not saved from anything, but you are saved for glory. | Glory is your inheritance, given your Soul by its Creator that you |
| Tx:10.35 | Father. Yet the Creator cannot be praised without His Son, for their | glory is shared, and they are glorified together. |

| Tx:10.38 | Blessed is the Son of God, whose radiance is of his Father and whose | glory he wills to share as his Father shares it with him. There is no |
| Tx:14.10 | offered for the single purpose of release from guilt to the eternal | glory of God and His creation. And every teaching that points to this |
| Tx:14.32 | In the darkness you have obscured the | glory God gave you and the power He bestowed upon His guiltless Son. |
| Tx:14.32 | Banish not power from your mind, but let all that would hide your | glory be brought to the judgment of the Holy Spirit and there undone. |
| Tx:14.32 | judgment of the Holy Spirit and there undone. Whom He would save for | glory is saved for it. He has promised the Father that through Him |
| Tx:14.32 | the Father that through Him you would be released from littleness to | glory. To what He promised God He is wholly faithful, for He shared |
| Tx:14.35 | what you are. You cannot join with anything except reality. God's | glory and His Son's belong to you in truth. They have no opposite, |
| Tx:14.61 | of light by Him to Whom God gave it. This lesson shines with God's | glory, for in it lies His power, which He shares so gladly with His |

| Tx:15.28 | are the decisions you have made about yourself. The power and the | glory that lie in you from God are for all who, like you, perceive |
| Tx:15.30 | behind and wander not in vain? It is not sacrifice to wake to | glory. But it is a sacrifice to accept anything less than glory. |
| Tx:15.30 | to wake to glory. But it is a sacrifice to accept anything less than | glory. Learn that you must be worthy of the Prince of Peace, born in |
| Tx:15.31 | the host of God to guilt and weakness with the glad awareness of the | glory that is in him. My birth in you is your awakening to grandeur. |

| Tx:16.74 | could it be? In seeking the special relationship, you look not for | glory in yourself. You have denied that it is there, and the |
| Tx:17.42 | our minds. We will gain everything by giving Him the power and the | glory and keeping no illusions of where they are. They are in us |
| Tx:19.35 | and you can see. Look not for what has been removed but for the | glory that has been restored for you to see. |
| Tx:19.91 | and the bright rays of His Father's love which light His face with | glory appear as streams of blood, fades in the blazing light beyond |

| Tx:24.43 | tiny gleams that spark an instant from the fireflies of sin and then | go out, to lead the other to a nameless precipice and hurl him over |

| Tx:24.72 | you. Their difference does not lie in how they look, nor where they | go, nor even what they do. They have a different purpose. It is this |

| Tx:26.22 | difference is the learning goal this course has set. It will not | go beyond this aim. Its only purpose is to teach what is the same and |
| Tx:26.29 | and praise. And as they come to you to be complete, so will you | go with them. For no one hears the song of Heaven and remains without |
| Tx:26.30 | are two teachers only, who point in different ways. And you will | go along the way your chosen teacher leads. There are but two |
| Tx:26.30 | road be made except the way to Heaven. You but choose whether to | go toward Heaven or away to nowhere. There is nothing else to choose. |

| Tx:26.43 | Forgive the past and let it | go, for it is gone. You stand no longer on the ground that lies |
| Tx:26.51 | as answer to them all. God's Will is One. And any wish that seems to | go against His Will has no foundation in the truth. |
| Tx:27.3 | he may see his sins are writ in Heaven in your blood and death and | go before him, closing off the gate and damning him to hell. Yet this |
| Tx:27.39 | this is not a question, for it tells you what you want and where to | go for it. It leaves no room to question its beliefs, except that |
| Tx:27.44 | needed that it can begin. Accept the miracle of healing, and it will | go forth because of what it is. It is its nature to extend itself the |
| Tx:27.53 | will be one of its effects, as will your brother's. Everywhere you | go will you behold its multiplied effects. Yet all the witnesses that |
| Tx:27.64 | world were hurting you. And so it seems as if there is no need to | go beyond the obvious in terms of cause. |
| Tx:27.84 | your innocence by pushing guilt outside yourself but never letting | go! It is not easy to perceive the jest when all around you do your |
| Tx:28.5 | to use it as a means to keep the past, but rather as a way to let it | go. Memory holds the message it receives and does what it is given it |
| Tx:28.24 | the separation's final step with which salvation, which proceeds to | go the other way, begins. This final step is an effect of what has |
| Tx:28.38 | the dreamer from the dream and join [with] one but let the other | go. The dream is but illusion in the mind. And with the mind you |
| Tx:28.46 | in the gap what is not there. Your willingness to let illusions | go is all the Healer of God's Son requires. He will place the miracle |
| Tx:29.4 | and signify a meeting-place to join. But always is it possible to | go your separate ways. Conditional upon the “right” to separate will |
| Tx:29.5 | make communion with each other's mind. And now it tells you where to | go and how to go there, what is feasible for you to undertake, and |
| Tx:29.5 | with each other's mind. And now it tells you where to go and how to | go there, what is feasible for you to undertake, and what you cannot |
| Tx:29.7 | gone. Thus is love seen as treacherous because it seems to come and | go uncertainly and offer no stability to you. You do not see how |
| Tx:29.7 | is your allegiance and how frequently you have demanded that love | go away and leave you quietly alone in “peace.” |
| Tx:29.39 | and night and day will be no more. All things that come and | go, the tides, the seasons, and the lives of men; all things that |
| Tx:30.15 | If you are so unwilling to receive you cannot even let your question | go, you can begin to change your mind with this: |
| Tx:30.20 | like the way you feel. This tiny opening will be enough to let you | go ahead with just a few more steps you need to let yourself be |
| Tx:30.44 | Thoughts seem to come and | go. Yet all this means is that you are sometimes aware of them and |
| Tx:30.59 | of forgiveness still remains. Yet everyone is certain he will | go beyond forgiveness, and he but remains until it is made perfect in |
| Tx:30.59 | till every hand is joined and every heart made ready to arise and | go with him. For thus is he made ready for the step in which is all |
| Tx:30.61 | world is a state in which the mind has learned how easily do idols | go when they are still perceived, but wanted not. How willingly the |
| Tx:30.61 | still perceived, but wanted not. How willingly the mind can let them | go when it has understood that idols are nothing and nowhere and are |
| Tx:30.64 | need to walk with perfect confidence away from fear forever and to | go straight on and quickly reach the gate of Heaven itself. For He |
| Tx:30.64 | your understanding, for you have enabled Him to rise from chains and | go with you together to His Father's house. |
| Tx:30.75 | to keep some idols and are not prepared as yet to let all idols | go. And thus you think that some appearances are real and not |
| Tx:31.20 | anger but in love, for in his progress do you count your own. And we | go separately along the way unless you keep him safely by your side. |
| Tx:31.23 | only when he would step back and falling back when he would | go ahead? For so do you forget the journey's goal, which is but to |
| Tx:31.23 | to walk with him, so neither leads nor follows. Thus it is a way you | go together, not alone. And in this choice is learning's outcome |
| Tx:31.25 | be given while you walk alone, and so you cannot see which way you | go. And thus there is confusion and a sense of endless doubting as |
| Tx:31.33 | How then can you escape from them by leaving them behind? What must | go with you, you will take with you whatever road you choose to walk |
| Tx:31.34 | differently they seem to start, however differently they seem to | go. Their end is certain, for there is no choice among them. All of |
| Tx:31.35 | have learned their greatest lesson. All must reach this point and | go beyond it. It is true indeed there is no choice at all within the |
| Tx:31.36 | fast your learning now, and understand you but waste time unless you | go beyond what you have learned to what is yet to learn. For from |
| Tx:31.42 | to think that there could be a road with such an aim! Where could it | go? And how could you be made to travel on it, walking there without |
| Tx:31.43 | is its purpose—that you come without a self and make one as you | go along. And by the time you reach “maturity,” you have perfected it |
| Tx:31.50 | that you will choose to follow this world's laws and never seek to | go beyond its roads nor realize the way you see yourself. Now must |
| Tx:31.53 | of the world depends upon this concept of the self. And both would | go if either one were ever raised to doubt. The Holy Spirit does not |
| Tx:31.54 | must have first decided on the one to choose and let the others | go. |
| Tx:31.58 | your mind. And be you sure and happy in the confidence that it will | go at last and leave your mind at peace. The role of the accuser will |

| W1:14.3 | The idea for today is another step in learning to let | go the thoughts which you have written on the world, and see the Word |
| W1:14.3 | lead you directly into fear. You will not be left there. You will | go far beyond it. Our direction is toward perfect safety and perfect |
| W1:15.3 | As we | go along, you may have many “light episodes.” They may take many |
| W1:23.5 | change requires, first, that the cause be identified and then let | go, so that it can be replaced. The first two steps in this process |
| W1:23.8 | thought in mind as you say this, and then dismiss that thought and | go on to the next. |
| W1:23.9 | being attacked are not different, you will be ready to let the cause | go. |
| W1:24.11 | and | go on to the next. |
| W1:26.9 | Then | go over every possible outcome which has occurred to you in that |
| W1:31.3 | establish any thought of hierarchy among them. Watch them come and | go as dispassionately as possible. Do not dwell on any one in |
| W1:34.3 | today slowly as you watch them arise in your mind, and let each one | go, to be replaced by the next. |
| W1:41.3 | your perfect holiness because its Source goes with you wherever you | go. You can never suffer because the Source of all joy goes with you |
| W1:41.3 | suffer because the Source of all joy goes with you wherever you | go. You can never be alone because the Source of all life goes with |

| W1:41.3 | destroy your peace of mind because God goes with you wherever you | go. |
| W1:41.4 | our first real attempt to get past this dark and heavy cloud and to | go through it to the light beyond. |
| W1:41.7 | is attempted. And sooner or later, it is always successful. We will | go into more detail in connection with this kind of practice as we go |
| W1:41.7 | go into more detail in connection with this kind of practice as we | go along. But it will never fail completely, and instant success is |
| W1:41.9 | at fear thoughts, remembering that God goes with you wherever you | go. |
| W1:42.3 | after you wake and another as close as possible to the time you | go to sleep. It is better, however, to wait until you can sit quietly |
| W1:44.1 | Creation and darkness cannot coexist, but light and life must | go together, being but different aspects of creation. |
| W1:44.7 | idea several times more. Then try to sink into your mind, letting | go every kind of interference and intrusion by quietly sinking past |
| W1:45.8 | Then try to | go past all the unreal thoughts that cover the truth in your mind, |
| W1:45.11 | will probably be unable as yet to realize how high you are trying to | go. Yet even with the little understanding you have already gained, |
| W1:47.8 | reached it if you feel a sense of deep peace, however briefly. Let | go all the trivial things that churn and bubble on the surface of |
| W1:49.4 | Listen in deep silence. Be very still, and open your mind. | Go past all the raucous shrieks and sick imaginings that cover your |
| W1:51.2 | What I think I see now is taking the place of vision. I must let it | go by realizing that it has no meaning so that vision may take its |
| W1:51.4 | in trying to understand it. But there is every reason to let it | go and make room for what can be seen and understood and loved. I can |
| W1:51.5 | to recognize that my thoughts do not mean anything and to let them | go. I choose to have them be replaced by what they were intended to |
| W1:51.6 | which has hurt me and which I no longer want. I am willing to let it | go. |
| W1:56.3 | remember who I am, it is essential that I let this image of myself | go. As it is replaced by truth, vision will surely be given me. And |
| W1:59.2 | [41] God goes with me wherever I | go. How can I be alone when God always goes with me? How can I be |
| W1:59.2 | about myself. I am perfect because God goes with me wherever I | go. |
| W1:60.5 | I am walking steadily on toward truth. There is nowhere else I can | go, because God's Voice is the only voice and the only guide that has |
| W1:66.3 | Today we will try to | go past this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the truth about |
| W1:66.4 | if it appears to be different. Today's exercises are an attempt to | go beyond these differences in appearance, and recognize a common |
| W1:68.5 | Perhaps you do not think you can let all your grievances | go. That, however, is simply a question of motivation. Today we will |
| W1:68.10 | Love holds no grievances. When I let all my grievances | go, I will know I am perfectly safe. |
| W1:69.4 | Very quietly now, with your eyes closed, try to let | go of all the content which generally occupies your consciousness. |
| W1:69.5 | They seem to be all there is to see. Therefore you do not attempt to | go through them and past them, which is the only way in which you |
| W1:69.6 | much you want to reach the light in you today—now. Determine to | go past the clouds. Reach out and touch them in your mind; brush them |
| W1:69.6 | feel them resting on your cheeks and forehead and eyelids as you | go through them. Go on; clouds cannot stop you. |
| W1:69.6 | on your cheeks and forehead and eyelids as you go through them. | Go on; clouds cannot stop you. |
| W1:69.8 | it is given you, and you will yet receive it. Try, as you attempt to | go through the clouds to the light, to hold this confidence in your |
| W1:70.12 | the clouds and in the light beyond. Remember that you will have to | go through the clouds before you can reach the light. But remember |
| W1:71.11 | What would You have me do? Where would You have me | go? What would You have me say, and to whom? |
| W1:72.15 | you feel your confidence wane and your hope of success flicker and | go out, repeat your question and your request, remembering that you |
| W1:73.6 | this for yourself. There is a point beyond which illusions cannot | go. |
| W1:73.17 | hold a grievance of any kind. This will help you let your grievances | go instead of cherishing them and hiding them in the darkness. |
| W1:75.1 | save. You are at peace, and you bring peace with you wherever you | go. Darkness and turmoil and death have disappeared. The light has |
| W1:78.2 | Today we | go beyond the grievances to look upon the miracle instead. We will |
| W1:79.8 | Perhaps we will not succeed in letting all our preconceived notions | go, but that is not necessary. All that is necessary is to entertain |
| W1:85.2 | keep me in darkness and hide the light. Grievances and light cannot | go together, but light and vision must be joined for me to see. To |
| W1:91.1 | It is important to remember that miracles and vision necessarily | go together. This needs repeating and frequent repeating. It is a |
| W1:91.12 | become accustomed to keeping faith with the more worthy in you as we | go along. |
| W1:92.2 | universe imprisoned in your hand, securely bound until you let it | go. Yet this is no more foolish than to believe the body's eyes can |
| W1:92.8 | is not the light you see. It does not change and flicker and | go out. It does not shift from night to day and back to darkness till |
| W1:94.6 | to reach this goal except to lay all idols and self-images aside, | go past the long list of attributes, both “good” and “bad,” you have |
| W1:95.9 | mistakes. He can be held back only by your unwillingness to let them | go. Let us therefore be determined, particularly for the next week or |
| W1:95.11 | you would defend illusions against the truth. Let all these errors | go by recognizing them for what they are. They are attempts to keep |
| W1:96.14 | These are your own real thoughts you have denied, and let your mind | go wandering in a world of dreams, to find illusions in their place. |
| W1:97.1 | can enter, for your mind has been absolved from madness, letting | go illusions of a split identity. |
| W1:98.1 | a stand on but one side today. We side with truth and let illusions | go. We will not vacillate between the two but take a firm position |
| W1:98.8 | in you will bring the light to all the words you say, and you will | go beyond their sound to what they really mean. Today you practice |
| W1:100.1 | separate thoughts and separate bodies which lead separate lives and | go their separate ways. One function shared by separate minds unites |
| W1:100.2 | God's Will for you is perfect happiness. Why should you choose to | go against His Will? The part that He has saved for you to take in |
| W1:100.4 | Heaven, so your joy on earth calls to all minds to let their sorrows | go and take their place beside you in God's plan. God's messengers |
| W1:101.10 | road, and now today's idea brings wings to speed you on and hope to | go still faster to the waiting goal of peace. There is no sin. |
| W1:106.3 | persuasion. Hear them not. Be still today, and listen to the truth. | Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who holds your happiness |
| W1:107.1 | returning whence they came. From dust to dust they come and | go, for only truth remains. |
| W1:107.5 | else. It does not shift and alter in its form, nor come and | go and go and come again. It stays exactly as it always was, to be |
| W1:107.5 | else. It does not shift and alter in its form, nor come and go and | go and come again. It stays exactly as it always was, to be depended |
| W1:107.7 | Truth does not come and | go nor shift nor change, in this appearance now and then in that, |
| W1:107.10 | with you upon this undertaking that He be in your awareness as you | go with Him. You are not made of flesh and blood and bone but were |
| W1:107.10 | Father knows that you are both the same. It is your Self you ask to | go with you, and how could He be absent where you are? |
| W1:109.8 | there is comes closer to all worn and tired minds, too weary now to | go their way alone. And they will hear the bird begin to sing and see |
| W1:109.8 | with lightened steps along the road that suddenly seems easy as they | go. |
| W1:110.10 | were you. Today we make a great advance to truth by letting idols | go and opening our hands and hearts and minds to God today. |
| W1:R3.8 | one in the morning and the other in the hour just before you | go to sleep. |
| W1:R3.9 | You have been inclined to practice only at appointed times and then | go on your way to other things without applying what you learned to |
| W1:121.3 | and all it sees, afraid and angry, weak and blustering, afraid to | go ahead, afraid to stay, afraid to waken or to go to sleep, afraid |
| W1:121.3 | afraid to go ahead, afraid to stay, afraid to waken or to | go to sleep, afraid of every sound, yet more afraid of stillness; |
| W1:123.4 | we smile on everyone we see and walk with lightened footsteps as we | go to do what is appointed us to do. We do not go alone. And we give |
| W1:123.4 | footsteps as we go to do what is appointed us to do. We do not | go alone. And we give thanks that in our solitude a Friend has come |
| W1:124.1 | blesses and which heals. At one with God and with the universe, we | go our way rejoicing, with the thought that God Himself goes |
| W1:128.5 | Today we practice letting | go all thought of values we have given to the world. We leave it free |
| W1:128.5 | we lift the chains which bar the door to freedom from the world and | go beyond all little values and diminished goals. |
| W1:129.2 | of this world. Perhaps you will concede there is no loss in letting | go all thought of value here. The world you see is merciless indeed, |
| W1:129.4 | they will be exchanged at last for what we cannot speak of, for you | go from there to where words fail entirely, into a silence where the |
| W1:130.2 | that which you fear to see you cannot see. Love and perception thus | go hand in hand, but fear obscures in darkness what is there. |
| W1:130.5 | They are the range of choice beyond which your decision cannot | go. The real and the unreal are all there is to choose between, and |
| W1:130.7 | five minutes to the thought which ends all compromise and doubt and | go beyond them all as one. We will not make a thousand meaningless |
| W1:131.6 | will fall away, yet not because it has been taken from you. It will | go because you do not want it. You will reach the goal you really |
| W1:131.14 | with such a world and which you think are true. Then let them | go, and sink below them to the holy place where they can enter not. |
| W1:131.16 | hand and see how easily the door swings open with your one intent to | go beyond it. Angels light the way, so that all darkness vanishes and |
| W1:132.7 | to teach. Not everyone is ready to accept it, and each one must | go as far as he can let himself be led along the road to truth. He |
| W1:132.7 | can let himself be led along the road to truth. He will return and | go still farther, or perhaps step back a while and then return again. |
| W1:132.9 | that gave it these appearances. The sick are healed as you let | go all thoughts of sickness, and the dead arise when you let thoughts |
| W1:135.13 | it has accepted this as true, then is it healed and lets the body | go. |
| W1:136.8 | to totter and prepare to fall. Now are you sick that truth may | go away and threaten your establishments no more. |
| W1:137.12 | truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing will this day | go forth from what is healed to what must yet be healed, aware that |
| W1:139.9 | to change reality, but merely to accept the truth about yourself and | go your way rejoicing in the endless Love of God. It is but this that |
| W1:140.9 | We will not be misled today by what appears to us as sick. We | go beyond appearances today and reach the source of healing from |
| W1:140.11 | and end the day by listening again five minutes more before we | go to sleep. Our only preparation is to let our interfering thoughts |
| W1:151.15 | thus when you awake, and gladly give another 15 more before you | go to sleep. Your ministry begins as all your thoughts are purified. |
| W1:153.13 | more to play our final happy game upon this earth. And then we | go to take our rightful place where truth abides and games are |
| W1:155.8 | and nothing more. It asks that you accept the truth, and let it | go before you, lighting up the path of ransom from illusion. It is |
| W1:155.10 | back in faith, and let truth lead the way. You know not where you | go, but One Who knows goes with you. Let Him lead you with the rest. |
| W1:157.2 | reaches it can possibly attain. It leaves us there an instant and we | go beyond it, sure of our direction and our only goal. |
| W1:158.3 | him, although he has not yet embarked on it. For time but seems to | go in one direction. We but undertake a journey that is over. Yet it |
| W1:158.4 | trick—a sleight of hand, a vast illusion in which figures come and | go as if by magic. Yet there is a plan behind appearances which does |
| W1:159.9 | world into a garden like the one they came from and to which they | go again with added fragrance. Now are they twice blessed. The |
| W1:164.8 | now our own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting | go all things you think you want. Your trifling treasures put away |
| W1:165.3 | but recognized where they abide? Would he not instantly prepare to | go where they are found, abandoning all else as worthless in |
| W1:166.5 | Yet in his lonely, senseless wanderings, God's gifts | go with him, all unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But he will not |
| W1:166.7 | witnesses with proof to show this is not you. You heed them not. You | go on your appointed way, with eyes cast down lest you might catch a |
| W1:166.9 | been outwitted by your plan to keep His Son in deep oblivion and | go the way you chose without your Self. |
| W1:166.15 | who have received them. He has shared His joy with you. And now you | go to share it with the world. |
| W1:167.5 | They can extend all that their source contains. In that they can | go far beyond themselves. But they cannot give birth to what was |
| W1:167.9 | or a false condition not within its Source, it merely seems to | go to sleep a while. It dreams of time—an interval in which what |
| W1:169.3 | Grace is not learned. The final step must | go beyond all learning. Grace is not the goal this course aspires to |
| W1:169.9 | convey to those who count the hours still and rise and work and | go to sleep by them? |
| W1:169.13 | Be grateful to return, as you were glad to | go an instant and accept the gifts that grace provided you. You carry |
| W1:R5.1 | of understanding. We would take this step completely, that we may | go on again more certain, more sincere, with faith upheld more |
| W1:R5.10 | I am incomplete without your part in me. And as I am made whole, we | go together to our ancient home, prepared for us before time was and |
| W1:R5.11 | world. The Self from Which I call to you is but your own. To Him we | go together. Take your brother's hand, for this is not a way we walk |
| W1:R5.15 | here conviction lies. We use the words, and try and try again to | go beyond them to their meaning, which is far beyond their sound. The |
| W1:I2.3 | be there, but you cannot accept its presence. So we now attempt to | go past all defenses for a little while each day. No more than this |
| W1:182.4 | with an innocence that will endure forever. Where this Child shall | go is holy ground. It is His holiness that lights up Heaven and that |
| W1:182.5 | as His own Son. It is this Child Who knows His Father. He desires to | go home so deeply, so unceasingly, His voice cries unto you to let |
| W1:182.6 | you still abides His sure protection. You will fail Him not. He will | go home, and you along with Him. |
| W1:182.7 | until you hear His gentle Voice within you, calling you to let Him | go in peace along with you to where He is at home and you with Him. |
| W1:182.10 | Who comes defenseless and Who is protected by defenselessness. | Go home with Him from time to time today. You are as much an alien |
| W1:182.11 | and brother. He has even come to you to ask your help in letting Him | go home completed and completely. He has come as does a little child |
| W1:182.12 | and the journey has an end in sight at last. Be still a moment and | go home with Him, and be at peace a while. |
| W1:184.7 | of the world. It is a phase of learning everyone who comes must | go through. But the sooner he perceives on what it rests, how |
| W1:184.9 | It would indeed be strange if you were asked to | go beyond all symbols of the world, forgetting them forever; yet were |
| W1:184.10 | the world becomes a transitory phase—a prison house from which you | go into the sunlight and forget the darkness. Here you understand the |
| W1:185.5 | He has looked on them and found them wanting. Now he seeks to | go beyond them, recognizing that another dream would offer nothing |

| W1:186.6 | you that you have the strength, the wisdom, and the holiness to | go beyond all images. You are not weak, as is the image of yourself. |
| W1:186.7 | the threat it does not know, sensing its basis crumble. Let it | go. Salvation of the world depends on you and not upon this little |
| W1:186.10 | These unsubstantial images will | go and leave your mind unclouded and serene when you accept the |
| W1:189.9 | And so today we do not choose the way in which we | go to Him. But we do choose to let Him come. And with this choice we |
| W1:192.2 | would pardon Heaven? Yet on earth you need the means to let illusion | go. Creation merely waits for your return to be acknowledged, not to |
| W1:193.15 | you can and give a little more, for now we would arise in haste and | go unto our Father's house. We have been gone too long, and we would |
| W1:193.17 | and when that one goes, let everything that happens in its course | go with it. Thus will you remain unbound, in peace eternal in the |
| W1:194.4 | sequence really found in time. You are but asked to let the future | go and place it in God's hands. And you will see by your experience |
| W1:195.5 | or who walk the way of hatred and the path of death. All these | go with you. Let us not compare ourselves with them, for thus we |
| W1:195.10 | For love can walk no road except the way of gratitude, and thus we | go who walk the way to God. |
| W1:196.4 | of perfect freedom. Let us take this step today that we may quickly | go the way salvation shows us, taking every step in its appointed |
| W1:196.7 | extent to you. From there you can at least consider if you want to | go along this painful path. Until this shift has been accomplished, |
| W1:196.8 | Our next steps will be easy if you take this one today. From there we | go ahead quite rapidly. For once you understand it is impossible that |
| W1:196.12 | There is no thought of God that does not | go with you to help you reach that instant and to go beyond it |
| W1:196.12 | God that does not go with you to help you reach that instant and to | go beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. When the fear of God is |
| W1:200.9 | Let us not lose our way again today. We | go to Heaven, and the path is straight. Only if we attempt to wander |
| W1:R6.7 | one exception to this lack of structuring. Permit no idle thought to | go unchallenged. If you notice one, deny its hold and hasten to |
| W1:R6.11 | toward the goal He set for us, allowing Him to teach us how to | go, and trusting Him completely for the way each practice period can |
| W1:202.1 | [182] I will be still a moment and | go home. Why would I choose to stay an instant more where I do not |
| W1:215.1 | with me in love. And I give thanks to Him for showing me the way to | go. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W2:I.1 | introductions to the times in which we leave the world of pain and | go to enter peace. Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set |
| W2:I.8 | He chose for us and made the choice to follow it as He would have us | go. His hand has held us up. His thoughts have lit the darkness of |
| W2:WF.1 | God's Son? Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and therefore lets it | go. What then is free to take its place is now the Will of God. |
| W2:228.2 | am part of You. And my mistakes about myself are dreams. I let them | go today. And I stand ready to receive Your Word alone for what I |
| W2:WS.3 | to support the world of dreams and malice. Thus it lets illusions | go. By not supporting them, it merely lets them quietly go down to |
| W2:WS.3 | illusions go. By not supporting them, it merely lets them quietly | go down to dust. And what they hid is now revealed—an altar to the |
| W2:WIW.3 | The mechanisms of illusion have been born instead. And now they | go to find what has been given them to seek. Their aim is to fulfill |
| W2:245.1 | Your peace surrounds me, Father. Where I | go, Your peace goes there with me. It sheds its light on everyone I |
| W2:245.2 | And so we | go in peace. To all the world we give the message that we have |
| W2:254.2 | occur, we quietly step back and look at them, and then we let them | go. We do not want what they would bring with them. And so we do not |
| W2:264.1 | and behind, beside me, in the place I see myself, and everywhere I | go. You are in all the things I look upon, the sounds I hear, and |
| W2:275.2 | over nothing. For Your Voice will tell me what to do and where to | go, to whom to speak, and what to say to him, what thoughts to think, |
| W2:WIHS.2 | guides it to the outcome He perceives for it, becomes the means to | go beyond itself, to be replaced by the Eternal Truth. |
| W2:284.1 | the truth. I can elect to change all thoughts that hurt. And I would | go beyond these words today, go past all reservations, and arrive at |
| W2:284.1 | all thoughts that hurt. And I would go beyond these words today, | go past all reservations, and arrive at full acceptance of the truth |
| W2:287.1 | Where would I | go but Heaven? What could be a substitute for happiness? What gift |
| W2:298.1 | as mine, sure that in that alone I will be saved, sure that I | go through fear to meet my Love. |
| W2:300.2 | we give thanks today the world endures but for an instant. We would | go beyond that tiny instant to eternity. |
| W2:302.2 | Our Love awaits us as we | go to Him and walks beside us, showing us the way. He fails in |
| W2:306.1 | returns to me? Today I can forget the world I made. Today I can | go past all fear and be restored to love and holiness and peace. |
| W2:WILJ.2 | as well. And all the figures in the dream in which the world began | go with it. Bodies now are useless and will therefore fade away |
| W2:316.1 | every gift I give belongs to me. Each one allows a past mistake to | go and leave no shadow on the holy mind my Father loves. His grace is |
| W2:317.1 | the slave of time and human destiny. But when I willingly and gladly | go the way my Father's plan appointed me to go, then will I recognize |
| W2:317.1 | I willingly and gladly go the way my Father's plan appointed me to | go, then will I recognize salvation is already here, already given |
| W2:317.2 | way is what I choose today. Where it would lead me, do I choose to | go; what it would have me do, I choose to do. Your way is certain and |
| W2:322.1 | I sacrifice illusions, nothing more. And as illusions | go, I find the gifts illusions tried to hide, awaiting me in shining |
| W2:323.2 | we pay the debt we owe to truth—a debt which merely is the letting | go of self-deceptions and of images we worshiped falsely—truth |
| W2:324.1 | gave the plan for my salvation to me. You have set the way I am to | go, the role to take, and every step in my appointed path. I cannot |
| W2:324.1 | I merely follow in the way to You as You direct me and would have me | go. |
| W2:328.1 | find our own. And since our will is His, it is to Him that we must | go to recognize our will. |
| W2:334.1 | who hear and choose to follow Him. This is my choice today. And so I | go to find the treasures God has given me. |
| W2:WIM.1 | that what it sees is false. It undoes error but does not attempt to | go beyond perception nor exceed the function of forgiveness. Thus it |
| W2:342.2 | forgive me now. I come to you to take you home with me. And as we | go, the world goes with us on the way to God. |
| W2:344.2 | How near we are to one another, as we | go to God. How near is He to us. How close the ending of the dream of |
| W2:FL.1 | beginning of our practicing and only to remind us that we seek to | go beyond them. Let us turn to Him Who leads the way and makes our |
| W2:FL.2 | already here, already serving us as gracious guidance in the way to | go. Let us together follow in this way that truth points out to us. |
| W2:E.4 | continue; now you walk with Him as certain as is He of where you | go; as sure as He of how you should proceed, as confident as He is of |
| W2:E.5 | and for peace and right direction. Joy attends our way. For we | go homeward to an open door which God has held unclosed to welcome us. |

| Tx:4.64 | less than this, and refuse to accept anything but this as your | goal. Watch your minds carefully for any beliefs that hinder its |

| Tx:7.23 | You made the effort to learn, and the Holy Spirit has a unified | goal for all effort. He adapts the ego's potentials for excelling to |
| Tx:7.23 | for His. If different abilities are applied long enough to one | goal, the abilities themselves become unified. This is because they |
| Tx:7.35 | is the way in which the ego tries to use all abilities, since its | goal is always to make you believe that you are in opposition. |
| Tx:7.36 | The ego's | goal is as unified as the Holy Spirit's, and it is because of this |
| Tx:7.100 | pain must obviously avoid pain. Surely no one would object to this | goal if he recognized it. The problem is not whether what the Holy |
| Tx:8.13 | The Holy Spirit's teaching takes only one direction and has only one | goal. His direction is freedom, and His goal is God. Yet He cannot |
| Tx:8.13 | direction and has only one goal. His direction is freedom, and His | goal is God. Yet He cannot conceive of God without you, because it is |

| Tx:8.60 | the reaction to learning is depression, it is only because the | goal of the curriculum has been lost sight of. |
| Tx:8.63 | through the body but not in it. If the mind believes the body is its | goal, it will distort its perception of the body and, by blocking its |
| Tx:8.64 | understood at all. To confuse a learning device with a curriculum | goal is a fundamental confusion. Learning can hardly be arrested at |
| Tx:8.66 | a clear-cut indication of a poor learner. He has accepted a learning | goal in obvious contradiction to the unified purpose of the |
| Tx:8.103 | reality, though impossible, can be made into a very persistent | goal, even though you do not want it. But consider the result of this |
| Tx:10.43 | becomes more obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the ego's | goal, which is so clearly senseless that any effort exerted on its |
| Tx:10.43 | exerted on its behalf is necessarily expended on nothing. The ego's | goal is quite explicitly ego autonomy. From the beginning, then, its |
| Tx:10.46 | it has the power to do this, it does nothing else because its | goal of autonomy is nothing else. The ego is totally confused about |
| Tx:10.46 | is totally confused about reality, but it does not lose sight of its | goal. It is much more vigilant than you are because it is perfectly |
| Tx:10.50 | If the ego's | goal of autonomy could be accomplished, God's purpose could be |
| Tx:10.50 | and the false from the true. According to the ego's teaching, its | goal can be accomplished, and God's purpose can not. According to the |
| Tx:10.51 | as it exists in truth. The ego believes that to accomplish its | goal is happiness. But it is given you to know that God's function is |
| Tx:10.51 | be found apart from your joint will. Recognize only that the ego's | goal, which you have pursued quite diligently, has [only] brought you |
| Tx:10.86 | and you cannot perceive part of you as sick and achieve your own | goal. Brother, we heal together as we live together and love |
| Tx:11.18 | peace. Look straight at every image that rises to delay you, for the | goal is inevitable because it is eternal. The goal of love is but |
| Tx:11.18 | to delay you, for the goal is inevitable because it is eternal. The | goal of love is but your right, and it belongs to you despite your |
| Tx:11.21 | the complete trust I have in you, and we will easily accomplish the | goal of perfection together. For perfection is and cannot be denied. |
| Tx:11.36 | out to you and the one promise it will keep. For the ego pursues its | goal with fanatic insistence, and its reality testing, though |
| Tx:11.39 | cannot be defeated. His is the journey to accomplishment, and the | goal He sets before you He will give you. For He will never deceive |
| Tx:11.48 | up curriculum goals where yours have clearly failed. Your learning | goal has been not to learn, and this cannot lead to successful |
| Tx:11.49 | “Try to learn but do not succeed.” The result of this curriculum | goal is obvious. Every legitimate teaching aid, every real |
| Tx:11.49 | are all for learning facilitation, which this strange curriculum | goal is against. If you are trying to learn how not to learn and are |
| Tx:11.50 | yourself. A necessary minor, supplementing this major curriculum | goal, is learning how not to overcome the split which made this goal |
| Tx:11.50 | goal, is learning how not to overcome the split which made this | goal believable. And you can not overcome it, for all your learning |
| Tx:11.51 | if you look at it. Is it possible that the way to achieve a | goal is not to attain it? Resign now as your own teachers. This |
| Tx:11.52 | for learning it. The curriculum is totally unambiguous because the | goal is not divided, and the means and the end are in complete |
| Tx:11.65 | you need correction. For this belief is the destruction of peace, a | goal in direct opposition to the Holy Spirit's purpose. You see what |
| Tx:11.66 | it is split and wants to keep the split, it will believe it has one | goal by making it one. |
| Tx:11.68 | of integrity and enables it to believe that it is pursuing one | goal. As long as you perceive the world as split, you are not healed. |
| Tx:11.68 | as split, you are not healed. For to be healed is to pursue one | goal because you have accepted only one and want but one. |
| Tx:11.74 | condemned yourself to death. The death penalty is the ego's ultimate | goal, for it fully believes that you are a criminal, as deserving of |
| Tx:11.89 | Long ago we said that the Holy Spirit shares the | goal of all good teachers, whose ultimate aim is to make themselves |
| Tx:12.5 | want to kill you, and if you identify with it, you must believe its | goal is yours. |
| Tx:12.7 | This course has explicitly stated that its | goal for you is happiness and peace. Yet you are afraid of it. You |
| Tx:12.29 | of the ego's. The reason is equally clear, for they perceive the | goal of time as diametrically opposed. |
| Tx:12.31 | place of eternity, for like the Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the | goal of time as its own. The continuity of past and future under its |
| Tx:12.31 | of salvation which you must learn to accept if you would share His | goal of salvation for you. |
| Tx:12.71 | lightly, for His sight is ever on the journey's end which is His | goal. God's Son is not a traveler through outer worlds. However holy |
| Tx:13.49 | know. The logic of the world must therefore lead to nothing, for its | goal is nothing. |
| Tx:13.54 | not realize that the foundation on which this most peculiar learning | goal depends means absolutely nothing. It does make sense to you. |
| Tx:13.60 | how to make nothing everything. Yet see that this has been your | goal and recognize how foolish it has been. Be glad it is undone, for |
| Tx:15.2 | Holy Spirit, uses time to convince you of the inevitability of the | goal and end of teaching. To the ego the goal is death, which is its |
| Tx:15.2 | of the inevitability of the goal and end of teaching. To the ego the | goal is death, which is its end. But to the Holy Spirit the goal is |
| Tx:15.2 | ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to the Holy Spirit the | goal is life, which has no end. |
| Tx:15.4 | for this is what all its teaching is directed to. Hell is its | goal, for although the ego aims at death and dissolution as an end, |
| Tx:15.4 | aims at death and dissolution as an end, it does not believe it. The | goal of death, which it craves for you, leaves it unsatisfied. No one |
| Tx:16.73 | you is that the present is useless to you while you pursue the ego's | goal as its ally. The past is gone; seek not to preserve it in the |
| Tx:17.26 | you. This is the truth that I would interpose between you and your | goal of madness. Be not separate from me, and let not the holy |
| Tx:17.44 | in this—the only difficult phase is the beginning. For here, the | goal of the relationship is abruptly shifted to the exact opposite of |
| Tx:17.45 | the practical results of asking Him to enter. At once His | goal replaces yours. This is accomplished very rapidly, but it makes |
| Tx:17.45 | clear. For the relationship as it is, is out of line with its own | goal and clearly unsuited to the purpose which has been accepted for |
| Tx:17.45 | which has been accepted for it. In its unholy condition, your | goal was all that seemed to give it meaning. Now it seems to make no |
| Tx:17.45 | have been broken off at this point, and the pursuit of the old | goal reestablished in another relationship. For once the unholy |
| Tx:17.45 | relationship. For once the unholy relationship has accepted the | goal of holiness, it can never again be what it was. |
| Tx:17.46 | has not as yet been changed sufficiently to make its former | goal completely without attraction, and its structure is “threatened” |
| Tx:17.46 | for meeting its new purpose. The conflict between the | goal and the structure of the relationship is so apparent that they |
| Tx:17.46 | relationship is so apparent that they cannot coexist. Yet now the | goal will not be changed. Set firmly in the unholy relationship, |
| Tx:17.46 | there is no course except to change the relationship to fit the | goal. Until this happy solution is seen and accepted as the only way |
| Tx:17.47 | It would not be kinder to shift the | goal more slowly, for the contrast would be obscured and the ego |
| Tx:17.47 | individuals for their unholy purposes suddenly has holiness for its | goal. As these two contemplate their relationship from the point of |
| Tx:17.48 | This is the time for faith. You let this | goal be set for you. That was an act of faith. Do not abandon faith, |
| Tx:17.48 | Have faith in each other in what but seems to be a trying time. The | goal is set. And your relationship has sanity as its purpose. For now |
| Tx:17.48 | in an insane relationship, recognized as such in the light of its | goal. |
| Tx:17.49 | thus—substitute for this another relationship to which your former | goal was quite appropriate. You can escape from your distress only by |
| Tx:17.51 | than you now believe. Is it not certain that you will remember a | goal unchanged throughout eternity? For you have chosen but the goal |
| Tx:17.51 | a goal unchanged throughout eternity? For you have chosen but the | goal of God from which your true intent was never absent. |
| Tx:17.55 | You stand together in the holy presence of truth itself. Here is the | goal, together with you. Think you not the goal itself will gladly |
| Tx:17.55 | truth itself. Here is the goal, together with you. Think you not the | goal itself will gladly arrange the means for its accomplishment? It |
| Tx:17.56 | Yet the | goal is fixed, firm, and unalterable, and the means will surely fall |
| Tx:17.56 | and unalterable, and the means will surely fall in place because the | goal is sure. And you will share the gladness of the Sonship that it |
| Tx:17.57 | is apparent that it must be clear. The setting of the Holy Spirit's | goal is general. Now He will work with you to make it specific [for |
| Tx:17.58 | do I want to come of this? What is it for?” The clarification of the | goal belongs at the beginning, for it is this which will determine |
| Tx:17.58 | is aware of what it does not want, but only that. It has no positive | goal at all. |
| Tx:17.59 | Without a clear cut positive | goal, set at the outset, the situation just seems to happen and makes |
| Tx:17.59 | judgment in the past, but you have no idea what should happen. No | goal was set with which to bring the means in line. And now the only |
| Tx:17.60 | of truth and falsity. The true becomes what can be used to meet the | goal. The false becomes the useless from this point of view. The |
| Tx:17.60 | point of view. The situation now has meaning, but only because the | goal has made it meaningful. |
| Tx:17.61 | The | goal of truth has further practical advantages. If the situation is |
| Tx:17.61 | the experience. The Holy Spirit knows that the situation is as the | goal determines it and is experienced according to the goal. |
| Tx:17.61 | is as the goal determines it and is experienced according to the | goal. |
| Tx:17.62 | The | goal of truth requires faith. Faith is implicit in the acceptance of |
| Tx:17.62 | Holy Spirit's purpose, and this faith is all-inclusive. Where the | goal of truth is set, there faith must be. The Holy Spirit sees the |
| Tx:17.62 | faith must be. The Holy Spirit sees the situation as a whole. The | goal establishes the fact that everyone involved in it will play his |
| Tx:17.63 | except that this attempt conflicts with unity and must obscure the | goal of truth. And peace will not be experienced except in fantasy. |
| Tx:17.63 | belonged. Thus do you lose the understanding of the situation the | goal of truth would bring. For fantasy solutions bring but the |
| Tx:17.65 | it is because the thoughts are judged to be in conflict. But if the | goal is truth, this is impossible. Some idea of bodies must have |
| Tx:17.67 | not given can be lacking in any situation. But remember this: the | goal of holiness was set for your relationship and not by you. You |
| Tx:17.67 | another was so limited and little. Your faith must grow to meet the | goal that has been set. The goal's reality will call this forth, for |
| Tx:17.68 | Be tempted not by what it offers you. It interferes not with the | goal, but with the value of the goal to you. Accept not the illusion |
| Tx:17.68 | you. It interferes not with the goal, but with the value of the | goal to you. Accept not the illusion of peace it offers, but look |
| Tx:17.69 | The | goal of illusion is as closely tied to faithlessness as faith to |
| Tx:17.70 | The power set in you in whom the Holy Spirit's | goal has been established is so far beyond your little conception of |
| Tx:17.72 | the purpose of your relationship by exchanging yours for His, the | goal He placed there was extended to every situation in which you |
| Tx:17.73 | God must be a dream. You whose relationship shares the Holy Spirit's | goal are set apart from loneliness because the truth has come. Its |
| Tx:17.79 | When you accepted truth as the | goal for your relationship, you became givers of peace as surely as |
| Tx:17.79 | givers of peace as surely as your Father gave peace to you. For the | goal of peace cannot be accepted apart from its conditions, and you |
| Tx:18.1 | you would perceive at once how much at variance this is with the | goal the Holy Spirit has given you and would accomplish for you. To |
| Tx:18.24 | bring a light into the darkness but made the darkness deeper. Your | goal was darkness in which no ray of light could enter. And you |
| Tx:18.25 | and sometimes to stark terror. But you will advance because your | goal is the advance from fear to truth. You know this. The goal which |
| Tx:18.25 | your goal is the advance from fear to truth. You know this. The | goal which you accepted is the goal of knowledge, for which you |
| Tx:18.25 | fear to truth. You know this. The goal which you accepted is the | goal of knowledge, for which you signified your willingness. Fear |
| Tx:18.25 | an instant of light, and it will be enough to remind you that your | goal is light. Truth has rushed to meet you since you called upon it. |
| Tx:18.28 | Each instant that we spend together will teach you that this | goal is possible and will strengthen your desire to reach it. And in |
| Tx:18.63 | No one accepts Atonement for himself who still accepts sin as his | goal. You have thus not met your one responsibility. Atonement is not |
| Tx:18.66 | at saving time. You are attempting to follow a very long road to the | goal you have accepted. It is extremely difficult to reach Atonement |

| Tx:19.1 | never be attained, for what is wholly dedicated to truth as its only | goal is brought to truth by faith. This faith encompasses everyone |
| Tx:19.6 | in the same place. To dedicate yourself to both is to set up a | goal forever impossible to attain, for part of it is sought through |
| Tx:19.6 | that the body must be healed, and not the mind. For this divided | goal has given both an equal reality, which could be possible only if |
| Tx:19.15 | of making lovely which they begin. For faith is still a learning | goal, no longer needed when the lesson has been learned. Yet truth |
| Tx:19.33 | and to each other. Your holy relationship has as its purpose now the | goal of proving this is impossible. Heaven has smiled upon it, and |
| Tx:19.37 | [has already begun. This is the way in which He will bring means and | goal in line. The peace He laid deep within both of you] will quietly |
| Tx:19.45 | of an illusion. Such was the journey; such its ending. And in the | goal of truth which you accepted must all illusions end. |
| Tx:19.69 | it. The body will seem to be whatever is the means for reaching the | goal that you assign to it. [Only the mind can set a purpose, and |
| Tx:19.75 | is true. Forget not that the ego has dedicated the body to the | goal of sin and places in it all its faith that this can be |
| Tx:19.83 | final and complete disruption of communication which is the ego's | goal. |
| Tx:20.58 | only joy. But we have also said the means to meet the Holy Spirit's | goal will come from the same Source as does His purpose. Being so |
| Tx:20.59 | the means to Him Who changed the purpose. You recognize you want the | goal. Are you not also willing to accept the means? If you are not, |
| Tx:20.60 | To obtain the | goal, the Holy Spirit indeed asked little. He asks no more to give |
| Tx:20.60 | asks no more to give the means as well. The means are second to the | goal. And when you hesitate, it is because the purpose frightens you, |
| Tx:20.60 | they be difficult if they are merely given you? They guarantee the | goal, and they are perfectly in line with it. Before we look at them |
| Tx:20.60 | impossible, your wanting of the purpose has been shaken. For if a | goal is possible to reach, the means to do so must be possible as |
| Tx:20.61 | look upon him as a body. Is this not perfectly consistent with the | goal of holiness? For holiness is merely the result of letting the |
| Tx:20.64 | thing apart from the intention. The means seem real because the | goal is valued. And judgment has no value unless the goal is sin. |
| Tx:20.64 | because the goal is valued. And judgment has no value unless the | goal is sin. |
| Tx:20.66 | sinlessness is your escape from fear. Salvation is the Holy Spirit's | goal. The means is vision. For what the seeing look upon is sinless. |
| Tx:20.75 | what you see. For what you see is merely how you elect to meet your | goal. Hallucinations serve to meet the goal of madness. They are the |
| Tx:20.75 | how you elect to meet your goal. Hallucinations serve to meet the | goal of madness. They are the means by which the outside world, |
| Tx:21.15 | what I see. I chose the feelings I experience, and I decided on the | goal I would achieve. And everything that seems to happen to me, I |
| Tx:21.17 | outside of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided sin was your | goal. Be happy, and you gave the power of decision to Him Who must |
| Tx:21.24 | in the unreal leads to adjustments of reality to make it fit the | goal of madness. The goal of sin induces the perception of a fearful |
| Tx:21.24 | to adjustments of reality to make it fit the goal of madness. The | goal of sin induces the perception of a fearful world to justify its |
| Tx:21.29 | All special relationships have sin as their | goal. For they are bargains with reality, toward which the seeming |
| Tx:21.30 | he desires it, for nothing is so cherished and protected as is a | goal the mind accepts. This it will follow, grimly or happily, but |
| Tx:21.32 | Faith and belief and vision are the means by which the | goal of holiness is reached. Through them the Holy Spirit leads you |
| Tx:21.40 | differently. You can have faith in it to serve the Holy Spirit's | goal and give it power to serve as means to help the blind to see. |
| Tx:21.55 | in its own right. It is not reinterpreted and redirected from the | goal of sin as are the others. For reason is beyond the ego's range |
| Tx:21.65 | which it is the means, leads steadily away from madness toward the | goal of truth. And here you will lay down the burden of denying |
| Tx:22.29 | is it possible for them to co-exist in your awareness. And reason's | goal is to make plain and therefore obvious. You can see reason. This |
| Tx:22.34 | and it is their maker that sees through them. What was its maker's | goal but not to see? For this the body's eyes are perfect means, but |
| Tx:22.51 | mind? For both you cannot have. Which do you value? Which is your | goal? For one you see as means; the other, end. And one must serve |
| Tx:22.53 | To serve this end, the body must be perceived as sinless because the | goal is sinlessness. The lack of contradiction makes the soft |
| Tx:22.58 | have been answered. Seek not to change it nor to substitute another | goal. [This one was given you and only this.] Accept this one and |
| Tx:23.31 | of madness must be insane. Are you as certain that you realize the | goal is madness? |
| Tx:23.32 | true, attack a kindness, hatred love and murder benediction, is the | goal the laws of chaos serve. These are the means by which the laws |
| Tx:23.33 | To be believed, its seeming laws must be perceived as real. Their | goal of madness must be seen as sanity. And fear, with ashen lips and |
| Tx:23.40 | awareness? Are you certain which way you go? And are you sure the | goal of Heaven can be reached? If not, you walk alone. Ask, then, |
| Tx:24.8 | him? Could you attack him if you realized you journey with him to a | goal that is the same? Would you not help him reach it in every way |
| Tx:24.8 | that you alone can reach. And he must never reach them, or your | goal is jeopardized. Can love have meaning where the goal is triumph? |
| Tx:24.8 | them, or your goal is jeopardized. Can love have meaning where the | goal is triumph? And what decision can be made for this that will not |
| Tx:24.10 | has been made clean of special goals. And would you now defeat the | goal of holiness that Heaven gave it? What perspective can the |
| Tx:24.13 | joy. But the pursuit of specialness must bring you pain. Here is a | goal that would defeat salvation and thus run counter to the Will of |
| Tx:24.35 | own defense. It was conceived to make you frail and helpless. The | goal of separation is its curse. Yet bodies have no goal. Purpose is |
| Tx:24.35 | helpless. The goal of separation is its curse. Yet bodies have no | goal. Purpose is of the mind. And minds can change as they desire. |
| Tx:24.59 | furious, with anger always fully justified, you have pursued this | goal with vigilance you never thought to yield and effort that you |
| Tx:24.60 | Now you are merely asked that you pursue another | goal with far less vigilance—with little effort and with little |
| Tx:24.72 | by giving it appearances of truth. Yet can perception serve another | goal. It is not bound to specialness but by your choice. And it is |
| Tx:25.25 | a different purpose, and to each it is a perfect means to serve the | goal for which it is perceived. For specialness it is the perfect |
| Tx:25.26 | that error made because it has another Maker Who can reconcile its | goal with His Creator's purpose. In His perception of the world, |
| Tx:25.31 | make it now, the instant when all time becomes a means to reach a | goal. Make then your choice. But recognize that in this choice the |
| Tx:25.37 | is gone because it has no purpose and is meaningless without the | goal of sin. Attack and sin are bound as one illusion, each the cause |
| Tx:26.22 | he recognizes they are not the same? This difference is the learning | goal this course has set. It will not go beyond this aim. Its only |
| Tx:26.31 | why should you waste it going nowhere when it can be used to reach a | goal as high as learning can achieve? Think not the way to Heaven's |
| Tx:26.89 | is purposeless except for this. To add or take away from this one | goal is but to take away all purpose from the world and from |
| Tx:27.9 | in this picture is the body not perceived as neutral and without a | goal inherent in itself. For it becomes the symbol of reproach, the |
| Tx:27.11 | Into this empty space, from which the | goal of sin has been removed, is Heaven free to be remembered. Here |
| Tx:27.27 | divided function, you were lost indeed. His inability to see His | goal divided and distinct for each of you preserves your Self from |
| Tx:27.33 | learning done. No learning aid has use which can extend beyond the | goal of learning. When its aim has been accomplished, it is |
| Tx:27.54 | cannot be achieved. Thus are they means for nothing, for they have a | goal without a meaning. And they share the lack of meaning which |
| Tx:29.8 | The body, innocent of any | goal, is your excuse for variable goals you hold and force the body |
| Tx:29.28 | And each one represents some function which you have assigned, some | goal which an event, or body, or a thing should represent and should |
| Tx:29.35 | If you but knew the glorious | goal that lies beyond forgiveness, you would not keep hold on any |
| Tx:29.40 | however changeless it appears to be. Think not that you can set a | goal unlike God's purpose for you and establish it as changeless and |
| Tx:29.46 | Whenever you attempt to reach a | goal in which the body's betterment is cast as major beneficiary, you |
| Tx:30.1 | The new beginning now becomes the focus of the curriculum. The | goal is clear, but now you need specific methods for attaining it. |
| Tx:30.24 | has no longer been obscured by the insane belief you want it for the | goal of being right when you are wrong. Thus is the readiness for |
| Tx:30.57 | only purpose of the world is seen to be forgiveness. Fear is not its | goal, and the escape from guilt becomes its aim. The value of |
| Tx:30.58 | that by attack is understanding lost. The folly of pursuing guilt as | goal is fully recognized. And idols are not wanted there, for guilt |
| Tx:30.62 | real world's purpose gently brought into awareness, to replace the | goal of sin and guilt. And all that stood between your image of |
| Tx:30.75 | means you think forgiveness must be limited. And you have set a | goal of partial pardon and a limited escape from guilt for you. What |
| Tx:30.86 | goals which makes perception shift and meaning change. In one united | goal does this become impossible, for your agreement makes |
| Tx:30.87 | the symbols which are used mean different things? The Holy Spirit's | goal gives one interpretation, meaningful to you and to your brother. |
| Tx:31.23 | back when he would go ahead? For so do you forget the journey's | goal, which is but to decide to walk with him, so neither leads nor |
| Tx:31.39 | course to be too difficult to learn, let me repeat that to achieve a | goal you must proceed in its direction, not away from it. And every |
| Tx:31.41 | His Love. No pathway in the world can lead to Him, nor any worldly | goal is one with His. What road in all the world will lead within, |
| W1:I.1 | exercises meaningful. Yet it is the exercises which will make the | goal possible. An untrained mind can accomplish nothing. It is the |
| W1:4.3 | form. The aim here is to train you in the first steps toward the | goal of separating the meaningless from the meaningful. It is a first |
| W1:20.3 | mistake the little effort that is asked of you for a sign that our | goal is of little worth. Can the salvation of the world be a trivial |
| W1:24.1 | you will not serve your own best interests. Yet they are your only | goal in any situation which is correctly perceived. Otherwise, you |
| W1:42.1 | which explains why you cannot fail in your efforts to achieve the | goal of the course. You will see because it is the Will of God. It is |
| W1:42.10 | the day, the more often you will be reminding yourself that the | goal of the course is important to you and that you have not |
| W1:44.3 | difficult form for the undisciplined mind and represents a major | goal of mind training. It embodies precisely what the untrained mind |
| W1:62.2 | are one. That is why all forgiveness is a gift to yourself. Your | goal is to find out who you are, having denied your Identity by |
| W1:65.7 | This thought reflects a | goal that is preventing me from accepting my only function. |
| W1:69.3 | and no other function to fulfill. Learning salvation is our only | goal. Let us end the ancient search today by finding the light in us |
| W1:72.11 | Our | goal in the longer practice periods today is to become aware that |
| W1:72.11 | for salvation has already been accomplished in us. To achieve this | goal, we must replace attack with acceptance. As long as we attack |
| W1:74.1 | conflicting goals. As an expression of the Will of God, you have no | goal but His. |
| W1:75.4 | is what we want to see, and only this. Our single purpose makes our | goal inevitable. Today the real world rises before us in gladness, to |
| W1:94.6 | Nothing is required of you to reach this | goal except to lay all idols and self-images aside, go past the long |
| W1:95.6 | for you at this time, planned to include frequent reminders of your | goal and regular attempts to reach it. Regularity in terms of time is |
| W1:95.16 | joy and peace. You are God's Son, One Self with one Creator and one | goal—to bring awareness of this oneness to all minds, that true |
| W1:95.20 | Throughout the day do not forget your | goal. Repeat today's idea as frequently as possible and understand |
| W1:98.2 | and have been given everything we need with which to reach the | goal. Not one mistake stands in our way, for we have been absolved |
| W1:100.10 | on Him? What little thought has power to hold you back? What foolish | goal can keep you from success when He Who calls to you is God |
| W1:101.10 | wings to speed you on and hope to go still faster to the waiting | goal of peace. There is no sin. Remember this today, and tell |
| W1:105.3 | give and leaves you nothing in the ones you take. A major learning | goal this course has set is to reverse your view of giving, so you |
| W1:R3.2 | up in terms of numbers. Rituals are not our aim and would defeat our | goal. |
| W1:R3.4 | should be done as soon as you have changed your mind about your | goal. You are unwilling to cooperate in practicing salvation only if |
| W1:126.1 | there would be no problem in complete forgiveness, certainty of | goal, and sure direction. You would understand the means by which |
| W1:126.11 | As often as you can, remind yourself you have a | goal today—an aim which makes this day of special value to yourself |
| W1:126.11 | to yourself and all your brothers. Do not let your mind forget this | goal for long, but tell yourself: |
| W1:127.6 | step this course requests in your advance toward its established | goal. If you achieve the faintest glimmering of what love means |
| W1:131.4 | surely do the thing you came for. But the world cannot dictate the | goal for which you search unless you give it power to do so. |
| W1:131.4 | give it power to do so. Otherwise, you still are free to choose a | goal that lies beyond the world and every worldly thought and one |
| W1:131.5 | Be glad as well to learn you search for Heaven and must find the | goal you really want. No one can fail to want this goal and reach it |
| W1:131.5 | and must find the goal you really want. No one can fail to want this | goal and reach it in the end. God's Son cannot seek vainly, though he |
| W1:131.6 | from you. It will go because you do not want it. You will reach the | goal you really want as certainly as God created you in sinlessness. |
| W1:131.11 | is truth we ask to reach today. We will devote ten minutes to this | goal three times today, and we will ask to see the rising of the real |
| W1:131.15 | you make today. Nothing but this has any meaning now; no other | goal is valued now nor sought; nothing before this door you really |
| W1:131.17 | for we come to the appointed time and place where you will find the | goal of all your searching here and all the seeking of the world, |
| W1:135.12 | that obstacles cannot impede its progress to accomplishment of any | goal which serves the greater plan established for the good of |
| W1:139.8 | the madness which we once believed in. Let us not forget the | goal that we accepted. It is more than just our happiness alone we |
| W1:153.15 | we give to preparation for a day in which salvation is the only | goal we have. Ten would be better; 15 better still. And as |
| W1:153.21 | nor timid. There can be no doubt that you will reach your final | goal. The ministers of God can never fail because the love and |
| W1:155.13 | cannot be deceived. His trust has made your pathway certain and your | goal secure. You will not fail your brothers nor your Self. |
| W1:157.2 | an instant and we go beyond it, sure of our direction and our only | goal. |
| W1:158.6 | unlearned, untaught, unseen, is merely there. This is beyond our | goal, for it transcends what needs to be accomplished. Our concern is |
| W1:158.8 | anything that faintly can compare with this in value; nor set up a | goal which does not merely disappear when this has been perceived. |
| W1:169.1 | for it leads beyond the world entirely. It is past learning yet the | goal of learning, for grace cannot come until the mind prepares |
| W1:169.3 | The final step must go beyond all learning. Grace is not the | goal this course aspires to attain. Yet we prepare for grace in that |
| W1:169.14 | Our learning | goal today does not exceed this prayer, yet in the world, what could |
| W1:R5.1 | for we approach a greater certainty, a firmer purpose and a surer | goal. |
| W1:R5.7 | shorten time immeasurably if we keep in mind that This remains our | goal, and as we practice, it is This to which we are approaching. Let |
| W1:I2.2 | your vision narrow and too limited to let you see the value of our | goal. We are attempting now to lift these blocks, however briefly. |
| W1:181.5 | upon the sinlessness within. We recognize that we have lost this | goal if anger blocks our way in any form. And if a brother's sins |
| W1:184.5 | Yet you believe this is what learning means—its one essential | goal by which communication is achieved and concepts can be |
| W1:185.4 | the form. The meaning must escape the dream, for compromising is the | goal of dreaming. Minds cannot unite in dreams. They merely bargain. |
| W1:186.11 | They will not change nor be in conflict. All of them point to one | goal, and one you can attain. Your plan may be impossible, but God's |
| W1:194.1 | that it encompasses, it sets you down just short of Heaven, with the | goal in sight and obstacles behind. Your foot has reached the lawns |
| W1:194.1 | we progressing now from earth! How close are we approaching to our | goal! How short the journey still to be pursued! |
| W1:199.4 | a vehicle which helps forgiveness be extended to the all-inclusive | goal that it must reach according to God's plan. |
| W1:199.6 | And it becomes perfect in the ability to serve an undivided | goal. In conflict-free and unequivocal response to mind with but the |
| W1:199.6 | unequivocal response to mind with but the thought of freedom as its | goal, the body serves, and serves its purpose well. Without the power |
| W1:R6.11 | it has been given as we practice day by day, advancing toward the | goal He set for us, allowing Him to teach us how to go, and trusting |
| W1:205.1 | The peace of God is everything I want. The peace of God is my one | goal; the aim of all my living here, the end I seek, my purpose and |
| W2:I.1 | the world of pain and go to enter peace. Now we begin to reach the | goal this course has set and find the end toward which our practicing |
| W2:I.2 | to God when we have need of Him as we are tempted to forget our | goal. |
| W2:WF.2 | a fixed projection and the aim that it has chosen as its needed | goal? |
| W2:WF.3 | thought does many things. In frantic action, it pursues its | goal, twisting and overturning what it sees as interfering with its |
| W2:226.1 | I behold it, nothing that I want to keep as mine or search for as a | goal, it will depart from me. For I have not sought for illusions to |
| W2:WIS.2 | striving to deceive itself. Its purpose is to strive. Yet can the | goal of striving change. And now the body serves a different aim for |
| W2:WIS.2 | now is chosen by the aim the mind has taken as replacement for the | goal of self-deception. Truth can be its aim as well as lies. The |
| W2:256.1 | impossible, and it is this we choose to dream today. God is our | goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds return to Him at |
| W2:256.2 | our Father, would we come to You in Your appointed way. We have no | goal except to hear Your Voice and find the way Your sacred Word has |
| W2:257.1 | If I forget my | goal, I can be but confused, unsure of what I am and thus conflicted |
| W2:258.1 | to overlook all little, senseless aims and to remember that our | goal is God. His memory is hidden in our minds, obscured but by our |
| W2:258.1 | toys and trinkets of the world are sought instead? God is our only | goal, our only Love. We have no aim but to remember Him. |
| W2:258.2 | Our | goal is but to follow in the way that leads to You. We have no goal |
| W2:258.2 | Our goal is but to follow in the way that leads to You. We have no | goal but this. What could we want but to remember You? What could we |
| W2:259.1 | Sin is the only thought that makes the | goal of God seem unobtainable. What else could blind us to the |
| W2:WIB.4 | it was made to fence him into hell without escape, yet has the | goal of Heaven been exchanged for the pursuit of hell. The Son of God |
| W2:WIC.5 | it is but the symbol that the time for learning now is over and the | goal of the Atonement has been reached at last? So therefore let us |
| W2:WIHS.2 | The | goal the Holy Spirit's teaching sets is just this end of dreams. For |
| W2:WIHS.2 | when this is entirely accomplished, learning has achieved the only | goal it has in truth. For learning, as the Holy Spirit guides it to |
| W2:286.2 | we have found the way and traveled far along it to a wholly certain | goal. Today we will not doubt the end which God Himself has promised |
| W2:287.2 | You are my | goal, my Father. What but You could I desire to have? What way but |
| W2:287.2 | of dreams and futile substitutions for the truth? You are my only | goal. Your Son would be as You created him. What way but this could I |
| W2:288.1 | This is the thought that leads the way to You and brings me to my | goal. I cannot come to You without my brother. And to know my Source, |
| W2:WIRW.5 | it goes and leaving but the Truth to be Itself. That instant is our | goal, for it contains the memory of God. And as we look upon a world |
| W2:296.2 | teach today what we would learn and that alone. And so our learning | goal becomes an unconflicted one and possible of easy reach and quick |
| W2:WILJ.1 | sight, perception gives a silent blessing and then disappears, its | goal accomplished and its mission done. |
| W2:312.1 | the holy sight of anyone who takes the Holy Spirit's purpose as his | goal for seeing. And he cannot fail to look upon what Christ would |
| W2:312.2 | Father, this is Your will for me today, and therefore it must be my | goal as well. |
| W2:314.1 | no effects. Death will not claim the future now, for life is now its | goal, and all the needed means are happily provided. Who can grieve |
| W2:318.1 | God has placed in me. I was created as the thing I seek. I am the | goal the world is searching for. I am God's Son, His one Eternal |
| W2:319.2 | Father, Your Will is total. And the | goal that stems from it shares its totality. What aim but the |
| W2:FL.3 | salvation. Unto us the aim is given to forgive the world. It is the | goal that God has given us. It is His ending to the dream we seek, |
| W2:FL.4 | us to be His own completion in reality. So let us not forget our | goal is shared. For it is that remembrance which contains the memory |
| W2:E.4 | sure as He of how you should proceed, as confident as He is of the | goal and of your safe arrival in the end. |
| M:2.5 | Those who would learn the same course share one interest and one | goal. And thus he who was the learner becomes a teacher of God |
| M:3.1 | a different relationship at the beginning, although the ultimate | goal is always the same—to make of the relationship a holy |
| M:4.24 | is gone. No clouds remain to hide the face of Christ. Now is the | goal achieved. Forgiveness is the final goal of the curriculum. It |
| M:4.24 | face of Christ. Now is the goal achieved. Forgiveness is the final | goal of the curriculum. It paves the way for what goes far beyond all |
| M:4.24 | learning. The curriculum makes no effort to exceed its legitimate | goal. Forgiveness is its single aim at which all learning ultimately |
| M:9.2 | insulting. The world's training is directed toward achieving a | goal in direct opposition to that of our curriculum. The world trains |
| M:10.3 | The aim of our curriculum, unlike the | goal of the world's learning, is the recognition that judgment in the |
| M:14.3 | “When not one thought of sin remains” appears to be a long-range | goal indeed. But time stands still and waits on the goals of God's |
| M:15.3 | this is wholly true? No, not yet, not yet. But this is still your | goal—why you are here. It is your function to prepare yourself to |
| M:16.1 | Not one is absent whom he needs; not one is sent without a learning | goal already set, and one which can be met that very day. For the |
| M:16.9 | state. All intermediate lessons will but lead to this and bring this | goal nearer to recognition. For magic of any kind, in all its forms, |
| M:17.3 | is anything but joy. The single aim of the teacher turns the divided | goal of the pupil into one direction, with the call for help becoming |
| M:26.3 | earth. But this is so rare that it cannot be considered a realistic | goal. If it happens, so be it. If it does not happen, so be it as |
| M:27.6 | world. All dreams will end with this one. This is salvation's final | goal, the end of all illusions. And in death are all illusions born. |
| M:28.3 | all mistakes undone. Attack is meaningless, and peace has come. The | goal of the curriculum has been achieved. Thoughts turn to Heaven and |
| M:28.6 | of evil dreams, the thought of hell is real. God's teachers have the | goal of wakening the minds of those asleep and seeing there the |

| Tx:17.15 | why you should enter into unholy alliances which support the ego's | goals and make your relationships the witness to its power. It is |
| Tx:17.46 | temptation of the ego becomes extremely intense with this shift in | goals. For the relationship has not as yet been changed sufficiently |
| Tx:21.24 | of the power of wanting, and therefore of faith, to make its | goals seem real and possible. Faith in the unreal leads to |
| Tx:23.33 | These do not seem to be the | goals of chaos, for by the great reversal, they appear to be the laws |
| Tx:24.8 | in a shared purpose. Specialness can never share, for it depends on | goals that you alone can reach. And he must never reach them, or your |
| Tx:24.10 | share with you. For your relationship has been made clean of special | goals. And would you now defeat the goal of holiness that Heaven gave |
| Tx:29.8 | The body, innocent of any goal, is your excuse for variable | goals you hold and force the body to maintain. You do not fear its |
| Tx:29.41 | change, because your function has been fixed by God. All other | goals are set in time and change that time might be preserved, |
| Tx:29.49 | but to decide you do not know the purpose of the world. You give it | goals it does not have, and thus do you decide what it is for. You |
| Tx:30.83 | was no meaning there? But you assigned a meaning in the light of | goals that change, with every meaning shifting as they change. |
| Tx:30.86 | of sacrifice apart from this idea. And it is this idea of different | goals which makes perception shift and meaning change. In one united |
| W1:24.4 | outcome you want. You will quickly realize that you have a number of | goals in mind as part of the desired outcome and also that these |
| W1:24.4 | of goals in mind as part of the desired outcome and also that these | goals are on different levels and often conflict. |
| W1:24.5 | each situation that occurs to you, and enumerate carefully as many | goals as possible that you would like to be met in its resolution. |
| W1:24.8 | nothing to do with it. You will also recognize that many of your | goals are contradictory, that you have no unified outcome in mind, |
| W1:24.8 | you must experience disappointment in connection with some of your | goals however the situation turns out. |
| W1:24.9 | After covering the list of as many hoped-for | goals as possible for each unresolved situation that crosses your |
| W1:25.1 | purpose; that is what it means. It is in recognizing this that your | goals become unified. It is in recognizing this that what you see is |
| W1:25.2 | the world and everything in it as meaningful in terms of ego | goals. These goals have nothing to do with your own best interests, |
| W1:25.2 | and everything in it as meaningful in terms of ego goals. These | goals have nothing to do with your own best interests, because the |
| W1:25.2 | to misuse it. When you believe this, you will try to withdraw the | goals you have assigned to the world instead of attempting to |
| W1:25.3 | Another way of describing the | goals you now perceive as valuable is to say that they are all |
| W1:25.3 | “personal” interests. Since you have no personal interests, your | goals are really concerned with nothing. In cherishing them, |
| W1:25.3 | concerned with nothing. In cherishing them, therefore, you have no | goals at all. And thus you do not know what anything is for. |
| W1:25.5 | It is crucial to your learning to be willing to give up the | goals you have established for everything. The recognition that they |
| W1:65.1 | salvation as your function and the relinquishment of all the other | goals you have invented for yourself. This is the only way in which |
| W1:65.4 | apart the time for God, as well as for all the trivial purposes and | goals you will pursue. This is part of the long range disciplinary |
| W1:74.1 | Peace has replaced the strange idea that you are torn by conflicting | goals. As an expression of the Will of God, you have no goal but His. |
| W1:83.2 | me from all conflict because it means I cannot have conflicting | goals. With one purpose only, I am always certain what to do, what to |
| W1:96.2 | Until you have accepted this, you will attempt endless lists of | goals you cannot reach; a senseless series of expenditures of time |
| W1:100.9 | deep within you, undismayed by all the little thoughts and foolish | goals you pass as you ascend to meet the Christ in you. |
| W1:104.6 | aside the conflicts of the world that offer other gifts and other | goals made of illusions, witnessed to by them, and sought for only in |
| W1:R3.4 | to cooperate in practicing salvation only if it interferes with | goals you hold more dear. When you withdraw the value given them, |
| W1:128.5 | from the world and go beyond all little values and diminished | goals. |
| W1:131.1 | Failure is all about you while you seek for | goals that cannot be achieved. You look for permanence in the |
| W1:131.2 | Goals which are meaningless are not attained. There is no way to | |
| W1:131.8 | you made and all its ways—its shifting patterns and uncertain | goals, its painful pleasures, and its tragic joys. God made no |
| W1:133.9 | it, for it needs to keep the halo which it uses to protect its | goals from tarnish and from rust, that you may see how innocent it is. |
| W1:133.10 | which could deceive but those who are content to be deceived. Its | goals are obvious to anyone who cares to look for them. Here is |
| W1:133.10 | failed to gain. He will believe that he has served the ego's hidden | goals. And though he tries to keep its halo clear within his vision, |
| W1:133.11 | unworthiness within himself. He who would still preserve the ego's | goals and serve them as his own makes no mistakes according to the |
| W1:133.12 | If you feel any guilt about your choice, you have allowed the ego's | goals to come between the real alternatives, and thus you do not |
| W1:135.17 | change. What it has learned before becomes the basis for its future | goals. Its past experience directs its choice of what will happen. |
| W1:138.3 | from what appears as opposites. Decision lets one of conflicting | goals become the aim of effort and expenditure of time. Without |
| W1:138.5 | and as it is accepted, it is known. But knowledge is beyond the | goals we seek to teach within the framework of this course. Ours are |
| W1:138.5 | seek to teach within the framework of this course. Ours are teaching | goals to be attained through learning how to reach them, what they |
| W1:157.7 | As this experience increases and all | goals but this become of little worth, the world to which you will |
| W1:163.2 | its withered hand; all hopes and wishes in its blighting grasp. All | goals perceived but in its sightless eyes. The frail, the helpless, |
| W1:164.9 | Christ's vision worthy to be sought above the world's unsatisfying | goals? Let not today slip by without the gifts it holds for you |
| W1:I2.1 | your willingness to make your weak commitment strong, your scattered | goals blend into one intent. You are not asked for total dedication |
| W1:181.3 | only this, for just a little while. We do not care about our future | goals, and what we saw an instant previous has no concern for us |
| W1:181.4 | hazard to success has been involvement with your past and future | goals. You have been quite preoccupied with how extremely different |
| W1:181.4 | You have been quite preoccupied with how extremely different the | goals this course is advocating are from those you held before. And |
| W1:181.8 | to keep us safe throughout the day. We do not seek for long range | goals. As each obstruction seems to block the vision of our |
| W1:186.10 | function given you. The images you make give rise to but conflicting | goals, impermanent and vague, uncertain and ambiguous. Who could be |
| W1:186.10 | in his efforts or direct his energies and concentrated drive toward | goals like these? The functions which the world esteems are so |
| W1:186.10 | times an hour at their most secure. What hope of gain can rest on | goals like this? |
| W1:200.8 | of Heaven and the way beyond. Peace is the answer to conflicting | goals, to senseless journeys, frantic, vain pursuits, and meaningless |
| W1:200.11 | way to leave the world of ambiguity and to replace our shifting | goals and solitary dreams with single purpose and companionship. For |
| W2:233.1 | You all my acts as well, that I may do Your will instead of seeking | goals which cannot be obtained and wasting time in vain imaginings. |
| W2:257.1 | am and thus conflicted in my actions. No one can serve contradicting | goals and serve them well. Nor can he function without deep distress |
| W2:258.1 | memory is hidden in our minds, obscured but by our pointless little | goals which offer nothing and do not exist. Shall we continue to |
| M:13.5 | this world's stern decree, and no one who pursues the world's | goals can do otherwise. |
| M:14.3 | be a long-range goal indeed. But time stands still and waits on the | goals of God's teachers. Not one thought of sin will remain the |
| M:16.2 | they easily become gods in their own right, threatening the very | goals for which they were set up. Broadly speaking, then, it can be |
| M:17.3 | in one intent. Attack can enter only if perception of separate | goals has entered. And this must indeed have been the case if the |
| M:26.4 | you have will not be met. Let us not, then, be too concerned with | goals for which you are not ready. God takes you where you are and |

| Tx:1.45 | The Soul never loses its communion with | God. Only the mind needs Atonement. The miracle joins in the |
| Tx:1.54 | As a result, the doer's perceptions are aligned with truth as | God created it. |
| Tx:1.56 | what It perceives is true. It perceives both the creations of | God and the creations of man. Among the creations of man, it can also |
| Tx:1.59 | brothers and mine. It is a way of perceiving the universal mark of | God in them. The specialness of God's Sons does not stem from |
| Tx:1.59 | perception becomes distorted. When this occurs, the whole family of | God, or the Sonship, is impaired in its relationships. Ultimately, |
| Tx:1.59 | in its relationships. Ultimately, every member of the family of | God must return. The miracle calls him to return because it blesses |
| Tx:1.60 | “God is not mocked” is not a warning but a reassurance on this point. | God would be mocked if any of His creations lacked holiness. The |
| Tx:1.78 | me that you cannot attain. I have nothing that does not come from | God. The main difference between us as yet is that I have nothing |
| Tx:1.79 | Regarded along the vertical, man stands below me and I stand below | God. In the process of “rising up,” I am higher. This is because, |
| Tx:1.79 | up,” I am higher. This is because, without me, the distance between | God and man would be too great for you to encompass. |
| Tx:1.80 | distance as an elder brother to man on the one hand and as a Son of | God on the other. My devotion to my brothers has placed me in charge |
| Tx:1.81 | devices. When man returns to his original form of communication with | God, the need for miracles is over. The Holy Spirit mediates higher |
| Tx:1.81 | higher to lower communication, keeping the direct channel from | God to man open for revelation. Revelation is not reciprocal. It is |
| Tx:1.81 | open for revelation. Revelation is not reciprocal. It is always from | God to man. The miracle is reciprocal because it involves equality. |

| Tx:1.88 | means that, unless you fully recognize your complete dependence on | God, you cannot know the real power of the Son in his true |
| Tx:1.89 | it. While the concept of lack does not exist in the creation of | God, it is very apparent in the creations of man. It is, in fact, the |
| Tx:1.91 | of what he is—that is, what he lacks. A sense of separation from | God is the only lack he really needs to correct. This sense of |
| Tx:1.92 | a corollary to the original error that man can be separated from | God, requires correction at its own level before the error of |
| Tx:1.101 | Believe this and you will be free. Only | God can establish this solution, and this faith is His gift. |

| Tx:1.105 | Child of | God, you were created to create the good, the beautiful, and the |
| Tx:1.105 | the beautiful, and the holy. Do not lose sight of this. The love of | God for a little while must still be expressed through one body to |
| Tx:2.5 | To “project,” as defined above, is a fundamental attribute of | God which He gave to His Son. In the creation, God projected His |
| Tx:2.5 | attribute of God which He gave to His Son. In the creation, | God projected His creative ability from Himself to the Souls He |
| Tx:2.5 | Because of its likeness to its Creator, it is creative. No Child of | God can lose this ability because it is inherent in what he is, but |
| Tx:2.7 | First, the assumption is implicit that what | God created can be changed by the mind of man. |
| Tx:2.9 | Third, the belief that man can distort the creations of | God, including himself, is accepted. |
| Tx:2.11 | was made as “a natural grand division,” or a projecting outward of | God. That is why everything that He created is like Him. Projection, |
| Tx:2.11 | everything that He created is like Him. Projection, as undertaken by | God, is very similar to the kind of inner radiance which the Children |
| Tx:2.12 | connotation of the term, included both the proper creation of man by | God and the proper creation by man in his right mind. The latter |
| Tx:2.12 | man in his right mind. The latter required the endowment of man by | God with free will because all loving creation is freely given. |
| Tx:2.14 | of miscreation. It still remains within him, however, to project as | God projected His own Spirit to him. In reality, this is his only |
| Tx:2.15 | basic misperception that man has the ability to usurp the power of | God. It can only be emphasized that he neither can nor has been able |
| Tx:2.18 | destroy peace. That is why the Bible speaks of “the peace of | God which passeth (human) understanding.” This peace is totally |
| Tx:2.18 | of any kind. It denies the ability of anything which is not of | God to affect you in any way. |
| Tx:2.20 | God and the Souls He created are completely dependent on each other. | |
| Tx:2.20 | been perfectly accomplished, but the creation by Souls has not. | God created Souls so He could depend on them because He created them |
| Tx:2.20 | Soul. This literally starves the Soul by denying its daily bread. | God offers only mercy. Your words should reflect only mercy because |
| Tx:2.48 | time and can become very acute, but the outcome is as certain as | God. |
| Tx:2.50 | The Children of | God are entitled to perfect comfort, which comes from a sense of |
| Tx:2.51 | is the only gift that is worthy of being offered to the altar of | God. This is because of the inestimable value of the altar itself. It |
| Tx:2.51 | was created perfect and is entirely worthy of receiving perfection. | God is lonely without His Souls, and they are lonely without Him. Men |
| Tx:2.80 | habit patterns which you have not developed dependably as yet. | God cannot ask more than you will. The strength to do comes from your |
| Tx:2.95 | the miracle, you have rejected fear. You have been afraid of | God, of me, of yourselves, and of practically everyone you know at |
| Tx:2.97 | a real expediter. Actually, “Cause” is a term properly belonging to | God, and “Effect,” which should also be capitalized, is His Son. This |
| Tx:2.100 | use of creation made this necessary as a corrective device. “And | God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that |
| Tx:2.101 | It should especially be noted that | God has only one Son. If all the Souls God created are His Sons, then |

| Tx:2.106 | he does not understand it. Judgment is not an essential attribute of | God. Man brought judgment into being only because of the separation. |
| Tx:2.108 | Last Judgment is generally thought of as a procedure undertaken by | God. Actually it will be undertaken by man with my help. It is a |
| Tx:2.109 | his own creations and will to preserve only what is good, just as | God Himself looked upon what He had created and knew that it was good. |
| Tx:2.110 | is frightening not only because it has been falsely projected onto | God, but also because of the association of “last” with death. This |
| Tx:3.2 | we said that awe is inappropriate in connection with the Sons of | God because you should not experience awe in the presence of your |
| Tx:3.3 | steps in this course, however, do involve a more direct approach to | God Himself. It would be most unwise to start on these steps without |
| Tx:3.3 | the experience will be more traumatic than beatific. Healing is of | God in the end. The means are being carefully explained to you. |
| Tx:3.9 | way evaluates what they do. It is strictly limited to an appeal to | God to heal their minds. There is no reference to the outcome of |
| Tx:3.10 | the present. Time is under my direction, but Timelessness belongs to | God alone. In time we exist for and with each other. In Timelessness |
| Tx:3.10 | we exist for and with each other. In Timelessness we coexist with | God. |
| Tx:3.11 | is seen from an upside-down point of view, it does appear as if | God permitted and even encouraged one of his Sons to suffer because |
| Tx:3.12 | my would-be followers, has led many people to be bitterly afraid of | God. This particularly anti-religious concept enters into many |
| Tx:3.12 | would have to pause and ask, “How could this be?” Is it likely that | God Himself would be capable of the kind of thinking which His own |
| Tx:3.13 | result, undertaken to justify the terrible misperception that | God Himself persecuted His own Son on behalf of salvation. The very |
| Tx:3.15 | misperception of truth by which man assigns his own “evil” past to | God. The “evil conscience” from the past has nothing to do with God. |
| Tx:3.15 | to God. The “evil conscience” from the past has nothing to do with | God. He did not create it, and He does not maintain it. God does not |
| Tx:3.15 | to do with God. He did not create it, and He does not maintain it. | God does not believe in karmic retribution. His Divine Mind does not |
| Tx:3.16 | responsible for a host of related errors including the belief that | God rejected man and forced him out of the Garden of Eden. It is also |
| Tx:3.17 | God Himself is not symbolic; He is fact. The Atonement too is totally | |
| Tx:3.19 | Nothing can prevail against a Son of | God who commends his Spirit into the hands of his Father. By doing |
| Tx:3.19 | of separation disappears, and level confusion vanishes. The Son of | God is part of the Holy Trinity, but the Trinity itself is One. There |
| Tx:3.19 | purpose creates perfect integration and establishes the peace of | God. Yet this vision can be perceived only by the truly innocent. |
| Tx:3.21 | Sacrifice is a notion totally unknown to | God. It arises solely from fear. This is particularly unfortunate |
| Tx:3.22 | I have been correctly referred to as “the Lamb of | God who taketh away the sins of the world.” Those who represent the |
| Tx:3.24 | the meaning of the Atonement is perfectly apparent. The innocence of | God is the true state of mind of His Son. In this state, man's mind |
| Tx:3.24 | true state of mind of His Son. In this state, man's mind does see | God [and because] he sees Him as he is[, he knows] that the |
| Tx:3.28 | see anything but perfection. We have said many times that only what | God creates, or what man creates with the same will, has any real |
| Tx:3.31 | fact that you do not recognize or know yourselves, each other, or | God. To recognize means to “know again,” implying that you knew |
| Tx:3.35 | you to “know yourself” or be certain. Certainty is always of | God. When you love someone, you have perceived him as he is, and this |
| Tx:3.35 | recognize him that you can know him. While you ask questions about | God, you are clearly implying that you do not know Him. Certainty |
| Tx:3.36 | so that you can know him. Right perception is necessary before | God can communicate directly to His own altars which He has |
| Tx:3.37 | God is not a stranger to His Sons, and His Sons are not strangers to | |
| Tx:3.37 | them. That is the real meaning of the Biblical description of | God as “Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End.” It also explains |
| Tx:3.37 | can and must be stabilized, but knowledge is stable. “Fear | God and keep His commandments” should read “Know God and accept His |
| Tx:3.37 | is stable. “Fear God and keep His commandments” should read “Know | God and accept His certainty.” There are no strangers in His |
| Tx:3.37 | He created, you can create only what you know and accept as yours. | God knows His Children with perfect certainty. He created them by |
| Tx:3.45 | cease to be. This is impossible because it is part of the Soul which | God created and which is therefore eternal. |
| Tx:3.48 | God and the Souls He created remain in surety, and therefore know | |
| Tx:3.50 | Strong wills can do this now, and you will find rest for your Souls. | God knows you only in peace, and this is your reality. |
| Tx:3.53 | human beings are not. Nevertheless, they are perfectly stable as | God created them. In this sense, when their behavior is unstable they |
| Tx:3.57 | to mean “thought” and “likeness” is taken as “of a like quality.” | God did create the Soul in His own Thought and of a quality like to |
| Tx:3.59 | minds have willed to see themselves as separate. Each Soul knows | God completely. That is the miraculous power of the Soul. The fact |
| Tx:3.60 | Communion, not prayer, is the natural state of those who know. | God and His miracles are inseparable. How beautiful indeed are the |
| Tx:3.60 | miracles are inseparable. How beautiful indeed are the Thoughts of | God who live in His light! Your worth is beyond perception because it |
| Tx:3.66 | error of all those who believe they have usurped the power of | God. |
| Tx:3.67 | The belief is very frightening to them but hardly troubles | God. He is, however, eager to undo it, not to punish His Children, |
| Tx:3.69 | their own rejection is impossible. You have not usurped the power of | God, but you have lost it. Fortunately, when you lose something, it |
| Tx:3.70 | routes from the denial of Authorship. The offense is never to | God, but only to those who deny Him. To deny His Authorship is to |
| Tx:3.72 | system which is based on lies is weak. Nothing made by a Child of | God is without power. It is essential to realize this because |
| Tx:3.73 | also know that you cannot weaken it, any more than you can weaken | God. The “devil” is a frightening concept, because he is thought of |
| Tx:3.73 | and extremely active. He is perceived as a force in combat with | God, battling Him for possession of the Souls He created. He deceives |
| Tx:3.73 | kingdoms of his own in which everything is in direct opposition to | God. Yet he attracts men rather than repels them, and they are seen |
| Tx:3.75 | of only one tree was “forbidden” to man in his symbolic garden. But | God could not have forbidden it or it could not have been eaten. If |
| Tx:3.75 | God could not have forbidden it or it could not have been eaten. If | God knows His Children, and I assure you that He does, would He have |
| Tx:3.75 | “tree” which was forbidden was named the “tree of knowledge.” Yet | God created knowledge and gave it freely to His creations. The |
| Tx:3.75 | but you may be sure that any interpretation which sees either | God or His creations as capable of destroying their own purpose is in |
| Tx:3.76 | self the ability for self-creating. This is the only sense in which | God and His Souls are not co-creators. The belief that they are is |
| Tx:3.78 | It is powerful, active, destructive, and clearly in opposition to | God because it literally denies His Fatherhood. Never underestimate |
| Tx:3.79 | Your creation by | God is the only foundation which cannot be shaken because the light |
| Tx:3.80 | To believe that they can be reconciled is to believe that | God and man can not. Only the oneness of knowledge is conflictless. |
| Tx:4.2 | speak from the Soul, you have chosen “to be still and know that I am | God.” These words are inspired because they come from knowledge. If |
| Tx:4.14 | by your teaching or your learning. Your worth was established by | God. As long as you dispute this, everything you do will be fearful, |
| Tx:4.14 | debatable except in delusions. Your ego is never at stake because | God did not create it. Your Soul is never at stake because He did. |
| Tx:4.15 | easy reach of your Soul. When you are afraid, be still and know that | God is real and you are His beloved Son in whom He is well pleased. |
| Tx:4.16 | God is not the author of fear. You are. You have chosen, therefore, | |
| Tx:4.16 | You are not at peace because you are not fulfilling your function. | God gave you a very lofty responsibility which you are not meeting. |
| Tx:4.17 | The word “inevitable” is fearful to the ego but joyous to the Soul. | God is inevitable, and you cannot avoid Him any more than He can |
| Tx:4.17 | behind! Do not listen to it, and do not preserve it. Listen only to | God, Who is as incapable of deception as are the Souls He created. |
| Tx:4.18 | this impoverished house stand. Its weakness is your strength. Only | God could make a home that is worthy of His creations, who have |
| Tx:4.18 | you when you choose to enter it. Of this you can be wholly certain. | God is as incapable of creating the perishable as the ego is of |
| Tx:4.19 | beyond perception, and stand forever as the mark of the Love of | God for His creations, who are wholly worthy of Him and only of Him. |
| Tx:4.19 | Nothing else is sufficiently worthy to be a gift for a creation of | God Himself. |
| Tx:4.27 | as a very real part of himself. Man reacts to his ego much as | God does to His Souls: with love, protection, and great charity. The |
| Tx:4.28 | viewpoint. [That is why the Bible quotes me as saying “Ye believe in | God, believe also in me.” Belief does apply to me, because I am the |
| Tx:4.28 | the ego.] When teaching is no longer necessary, you will merely know | God. Belief that there is another way is the loftiest idea of which |
| Tx:4.29 | Be patient awhile and remember that the outcome is as certain as | God. |
| Tx:4.34 | is why self-esteem in ego terms must be a delusion. The creations of | God do not create myths, although the creative efforts of man can |
| Tx:4.46 | of the lofty is actually much greater to the ego because the pull of | God Himself can hardly be equated with the pull of human appetites. |
| Tx:4.47 | The upper level of the unconscious thus contains the Call of | God as well as the call of the body. That is why the basic conflict |
| Tx:4.48 | can its meager offering to you prevail against the glorious gift of | God? |
| Tx:4.49 | You who identify with your egos cannot believe that | God loves you. You do not love what you have made, and what you made |
| Tx:4.49 | You cannot conceive of the real relationship which exists between | God and His Souls because of the hatred you have for the self you |
| Tx:4.51 | enough or worthy enough to guide you. In this you are as free as | God and must remain so forever. You can never be bound except in |
| Tx:4.53 | I will never forsake you any more than | God will, but I must wait as long as you choose to forsake yourself. |
| Tx:4.54 | deeply repressed by the ego, is the declaration of your release. | God has given you everything. This is the one fact that means the ego |
| Tx:4.54 | is why we made no distinction before between having the Kingdom of | God and being the Kingdom of God. |
| Tx:4.54 | before between having the Kingdom of God and being the Kingdom of | God. |
| Tx:4.56 | If you cannot hear the Voice of | God, it is because you do not choose to listen. The fact that you do |
| Tx:4.56 | to save the face of your egos, and you do not seek the Face of | God. The glass in which the ego seeks to see its face is dark indeed. |
| Tx:4.57 | not be. In every case you have thought wrongly about some Soul that | God created and are perceiving images your ego makes in a darkened |
| Tx:4.57 | makes in a darkened glass. Think honestly what you have thought that | God would not have thought and what you have not thought that God |
| Tx:4.57 | that God would not have thought and what you have not thought that | God would have you think. Search sincerely for what you have done and |
| Tx:4.61 | you feel guilty, know that the ego has indeed violated the laws of | God, but you have not. Leave the sins of the ego to me. That is what |
| Tx:4.63 | The habit of engaging with | God and His creations is easily made if you actively refuse to let |
| Tx:4.63 | of them you have refused? There is no limit to the power of a Son of | God, but he himself can limit the expression of his power as much as |
| Tx:4.64 | can unite in shining your ego away and releasing the strength of | God into everything you think and will and do. Do not settle for |
| Tx:4.65 | You are mirrors of truth in which | God Himself shines in perfect light. To the ego's dark glass you need |
| Tx:4.66 | is just another name for the creation, for Christ is the Son of | God. The second coming of Christ means nothing more than the end of |
| Tx:4.68 | that life is an eternal attribute of everything that the living | God created. Why do you believe it is harder for me to inspire the |
| Tx:4.70 | state is its lack of discrimination between impulses from | God and from the body. Any thought system which makes this confusion |
| Tx:4.70 | or non-threat to itself. In one sense the ego's fear of the idea of | God is at least logical, since this idea does dispel the ego. Fear of |
| Tx:4.71 | body's vulnerability is its own best argument that you cannot be of | God. This is the belief that the ego sponsors eagerly. Yet the ego |
| Tx:4.74 | to anything that is eternal because the eternal must come from | God. Eternalness is the one function which the ego has tried to |
| Tx:4.87 | and can never induce more than a temporary effect. The rewards of | God, however, are immediately recognized as eternal. Since this |
| Tx:4.90 | gratitude to each other is the only gift I want. I will bring it to | God for you, knowing that to know your brother is to know God. A |
| Tx:4.90 | it to God for you, knowing that to know your brother is to know | God. A little knowledge is an all-encompassing thing. If you are |
| Tx:4.90 | thing. If you are grateful to each other, you are grateful to | God for what He created. Through your gratitude, you can come to know |
| Tx:4.90 | but it does set all things right. Because you are all the Kingdom of | God, I can lead you back to your own creations, which you do not yet |
| Tx:4.91 | it is inherent in it. Meditation is a collaborative venture with | God. It cannot be undertaken successfully by those who disengage |
| Tx:4.91 | from the Sonship because they are disengaging themselves from me. | God will come to you only as you will give Him to your brothers. |
| Tx:4.91 | to your brothers. Learn first of them, and you will be ready to hear | God as you hear them. That is because the function of love is one. |
| Tx:4.93 | really want the rewards of the ego in the presence of the rewards of | God? |
| Tx:4.96 | what is true. It knows that what is true is everything that | God created. It is in complete and direct communication with every |
| Tx:4.97 | This communication is the Will of | God. Creation and communication are synonymous. God created every |
| Tx:4.97 | is the Will of God. Creation and communication are synonymous. | God created every mind by communicating His Mind to it, thus |
| Tx:4.97 | and not subject to any judgment, any exception, or any alteration. | God created you by this and for this. The mind can distort its |
| Tx:4.99 | God, Who encompasses all being, nevertheless created beings who have | |
| Tx:4.99 | Nothing that is real can be increased except by sharing. That is why | God Himself created you. Divine Abstraction takes joy in application, |
| Tx:4.100 | The Bible repeatedly states that you should praise | God. This hardly means that you should tell Him how wonderful He is. |
| Tx:4.101 | God has kept your kingdom for you, but He cannot share His joy with | |
| Tx:4.101 | mind. Even revelation is not enough because it is communication from | God. It is not enough until it is shared. God does not need |
| Tx:4.101 | it is communication from God. It is not enough until it is shared. | God does not need revelation returned to Him, which would clearly be |
| Tx:4.102 | God is praised whenever any mind learns to be wholly helpful. This is | |
| Tx:4.102 | so that nothing can hurt them. Their helpfulness is their praise of | God, and He will return their praise of Him because they are like |
| Tx:4.102 | of Him because they are like Him, and they can rejoice together. | God goes out to them and through them, and there is great joy |
| Tx:4.105 | meets them heals itself. Rehabilitation is an attitude of praising | God as He Himself knows praise. He offers praise to you, and you must |
| Tx:5.3 | enough to hold it by sharing it. It is impossible for a Child of | God to love his neighbor except as himself. That is why the healer's |
| Tx:5.5 | calls to every part of the Sonship to rejoice with them and lets | God Himself go out into them and through them. Only the healed mind |
| Tx:5.5 | the laws which the Soul obeys and therefore honors only the laws of | God. To Him, getting is meaningless and giving is all. Having |
| Tx:5.11 | the higher or the “true” perception, which is so close to truth that | God Himself can flow across the little gap. Knowledge is always ready |
| Tx:5.12 | God honored even the miscreations of His Children because they had | |
| Tx:5.12 | literal meaning of “carried” over since the last step is taken by | God. |
| Tx:5.17 | Spirit promotes healing by looking beyond it to what the Children of | God were before healing was needed and will be when they have been |
| Tx:5.17 | heal the separation by letting it go. This will is in you, because | God placed it in your mind, and although you can keep it asleep, you |
| Tx:5.18 | God Himself keeps this will alive by transmitting it from His Mind to | |
| Tx:5.18 | Spirit is the spirit of joy. He is the Call to return with which | God blessed the minds of His separated Sons. This is the vocation of |
| Tx:5.19 | and the separation began at the same time. When man made the ego, | God placed in him the call to joy. This call is so strong that the |
| Tx:5.19 | two voices within you. One you made yourself and that one is not of | God. But the other is given you by God Who asks you only to listen to |
| Tx:5.19 | yourself and that one is not of God. But the other is given you by | God Who asks you only to listen to it. The Holy Spirit is in you in a |
| Tx:5.20 | whole Sonship is healed, there will be no call to return, but what | God creates is eternal. The Holy Spirit will remain with the Sons of |
| Tx:5.20 | God creates is eternal. The Holy Spirit will remain with the Sons of | God to bless their creations and keep them in the light of joy. |
| Tx:5.21 | You knew as you will know again, but as you do not know now. | God does not guide because He can share only perfect knowledge. |
| Tx:5.22 | It means that knowledge has been lost, because knowledge is sure. | God is not in you in a literal sense; you are part of Him. When you |
| Tx:5.23 | of choosing. This way is in you because there is also another way. | God did not leave His Children comfortless, even though they chose to |
| Tx:5.24 | the midst of the turmoil you have made for yourselves. The Voice for | God is always quiet, because it speaks of peace. Yet peace is |
| Tx:5.25 | mind which always speaks for the right choice because He speaks for | God. He is your remaining communication with God, which you can |
| Tx:5.25 | because He speaks for God. He is your remaining communication with | God, which you can interrupt but cannot destroy. |
| Tx:5.26 | of both is in your will and therefore in your mind. The Voice for | God comes from your own altars to Him. These altars are not things; |
| Tx:5.27 | you will to learn. I am your model for decision. By deciding for | God, I showed you that this decision can be made and that you can |
| Tx:5.28 | weariness. Our task is the joyous one of waking it to the Call for | God. Everyone will answer the Call of the Holy Spirit, or the Sonship |
| Tx:5.30 | mind to do this. This mind is the Holy Spirit, whose will is for | God always. He teaches you how to keep me as the model for your |
| Tx:5.31 | What we can accomplish together has no limits, because the Call for | God is the call to the unlimited. Child of God, my message is for you |
| Tx:5.31 | because the Call for God is the call to the unlimited. Child of | God, my message is for you to hear and give away as you answer the |
| Tx:5.33 | Being thought, the idea gains as it is shared. Being the Call for | God, it is also the idea of God. Since you are part of God, it is |
| Tx:5.33 | as it is shared. Being the Call for God, it is also the idea of | God. Since you are part of God, it is also the idea of yourself as |
| Tx:5.33 | the Call for God, it is also the idea of God. Since you are part of | God, it is also the idea of yourself as well as of all the parts of |
| Tx:5.33 | God, it is also the idea of yourself as well as of all the parts of | God. The idea of the Holy Spirit shares the property of other ideas, |
| Tx:5.34 | Your brother may have dissociated the Call for | God, just as you have. The dissociation is healed in both of you as |
| Tx:5.34 | is healed in both of you as you become aware of the Call for | God in him and thus acknowledge its being. There are two ways of |
| Tx:5.37 | the ego and the Soul, with time and eternity. Eternity is an idea of | God, so the Soul understands it perfectly. Time is a belief of the |
| Tx:5.38 | symbols into eternity also enables Him to understand the laws of | God, for which He speaks. He can thus perform the function of |
| Tx:5.38 | the task of the Holy Spirit to reinterpret you on behalf of | God. |
| Tx:5.39 | place in the Sonship and the rightful place of the Sonship [is] | God. This is your life, your eternity, and yourself. It is of this |
| Tx:5.41 | going counter to his will because part of his will is still for | God. Despite the ego's attempts to conceal this part, it is still |
| Tx:5.42 | at home there, too, because it is a place of peace, and peace is of | God. You who are part of God are not at home except in His peace. If |
| Tx:5.42 | it is a place of peace, and peace is of God. You who are part of | God are not at home except in His peace. If peace is eternal, you are |
| Tx:5.43 | and understand as He understands. His understanding looks back to | God in remembrance of me. He is in Holy Communion always, and He is |
| Tx:5.45 | guilt. They came from the Holy Spirit within you, and we know what | God creates is eternal. What fear has hidden still is part of you. |
| Tx:5.46 | it. It is yours because it is a part of you, just as you are part of | God because He created you. |
| Tx:5.50 | even in this world to listen to one voice. If you are part of | God and the Sonship is one, you cannot be limited to the “self” the |
| Tx:5.52 | that was in me is still irresistibly drawn to every mind created by | God, because God's Wholeness is the wholeness of His Son. |
| Tx:5.54 | you have placed in your mind. By following Him, He leads you back to | God where you belong, and how can you find this way except by taking |
| Tx:5.55 | forsake you, because to forsake you would be to forsake myself and | God who created me. You will forsake yourselves and God if you |
| Tx:5.55 | myself and God who created me. You will forsake yourselves and | God if you forsake any of your brothers. You are more than your |
| Tx:5.55 | him. You must learn to see him as he is and know that he belongs to | God as you do. How could you treat your brother better than by |
| Tx:5.55 | do. How could you treat your brother better than by rendering unto | God the things which are God's? |
| Tx:5.57 | gives you the power of a healed mind, but the power to create is of | God. Therefore, those who have been forgiven must devote themselves |
| Tx:5.57 | because only the complete can think completely, and the thinking of | God lacks nothing. Everything you think that is not through the Holy |
| Tx:5.58 | it and share it, that it may always be ours. I place the peace of | God in your heart and in your hands, to hold and share. The heart is |
| Tx:5.58 | give it. We cannot lose. My judgment is as strong as the wisdom of | God, in Whose heart and hands we have our being. His quiet Children |
| Tx:5.58 | our being. His quiet Children are His blessed Sons. The thoughts of | God are with you. |
| Tx:5.60 | it is also the symbol of guilt. Guilt is more than merely not of | God. It is the symbol of the attack on God. This is a totally |
| Tx:5.60 | is more than merely not of God. It is the symbol of the attack on | God. This is a totally meaningless concept except to the ego, but do |
| Tx:5.61 | is the part of the mind which believes in division. How can part of | God detach itself without believing it is attacking Him? We spoke |
| Tx:5.62 | However ridiculous the idea of attacking | God may be to the sane mind, never forget that the ego is not sane. |
| Tx:5.62 | to the ego's voice means that you believe it is possible to attack | God. You believe that a part of Him has been torn away by you. The |
| Tx:5.63 | it to enter makes it your reality. This is because the mind, as | God created it, is capable of creating reality. We said before that |
| Tx:5.63 | creating reality. We said before that you must learn to think with | God. To think with Him is to think like Him. This engenders joy, not |
| Tx:5.65 | believes that by punishing itself it will mitigate the punishment of | God. Yet even in this it is arrogant. It attributes to God a |
| Tx:5.65 | punishment of God. Yet even in this it is arrogant. It attributes to | God a punishing intent, and then takes over this intent as its own |
| Tx:5.65 | as its own prerogative. It tries to usurp all the functions of | God as it perceives them, because it recognizes that only total |
| Tx:5.66 | The ego cannot oppose the laws of | God any more than you can, but it can interpret them according to |
| Tx:5.67 | obey. The ego and the Holy Spirit are the only choices open to you. | God created one, and so you cannot eradicate it. You made the other, |
| Tx:5.67 | cannot eradicate it. You made the other, and so you can. Only what | God creates is irreversible and unchangeable. What you have made can |
| Tx:5.67 | have made can always be changed, because when you do not think like | God you are not really thinking at all. Delusional ideas are not real |
| Tx:5.67 | in them. But you are wrong. The function of thought comes from | God and is in God. As part of His Thought, you cannot think apart |
| Tx:5.67 | But you are wrong. The function of thought comes from God and is in | God. As part of His Thought, you cannot think apart from Him. |
| Tx:5.68 | Irrational thought is a thought disorder. | God Himself orders your thought because your thought was created by |
| Tx:5.68 | know this. They also show that you believe you can think apart from | God and want to. Every thought disorder is attended by guilt at its |
| Tx:5.71 | God in His knowledge is not waiting, but His Kingdom is bereft while | |
| Tx:5.71 | waiting, but His Kingdom is bereft while you wait. All the Sons of | God are waiting for your return, just as you are waiting for theirs. |
| Tx:5.71 | You do not belong in time. Your place is only in eternity, where | God Himself placed you forever. |
| Tx:5.72 | the belief that you cannot escape from it. But you can and must. | God offers you the continuity of eternity in exchange. When you |
| Tx:5.73 | mind does indeed know its power, because the mind does indeed know | God. Remember the Kingdom always, and remember that you who are part |
| Tx:5.73 | the Kingdom cannot be lost. The mind that was in me is in you, for | God creates with perfect fairness. Let the Holy Spirit remind you |
| Tx:5.76 | it in you because it does not belong in your mind, which is part of | God. |
| Tx:5.79 | the case against you. There can be no case against a Child of | God, and every witness to guilt in God's creations is bearing false |
| Tx:5.79 | witness to guilt in God's creations is bearing false witness to | God Himself. |
| Tx:5.80 | The case may be foolproof, but it is not God-proof. The Voice for | God will not hear it at all because He can only witness truly. His |
| Tx:5.81 | with each other is your patience with yourselves. Is not a Child of | God worth patience? I have shown you infinite patience because my |
| Tx:5.82 | when it is no longer useful. The Holy Spirit, Who speaks for | God in time, also knows that time is meaningless. He reminds you of |
| Tx:5.82 | is so truly blessed, and because He has been given you so freely by | God, you must give Him as you received Him. |
| Tx:5.83 | that God's peace is set in the Holy Spirit because it is fixed on | God. It is also fixed in you. You, then, are fixed in the peace of |
| Tx:5.83 | God. It is also fixed in you. You, then, are fixed in the peace of | God. The concept of “fixation” is also a very helpful one which Freud |
| Tx:5.85 | Fixation is the pull of | God, on whom your mind is fixed because of the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:5.89 | because you are in the same position. You were eternally fixated on | God in your creation, and the pull of this fixation is so strong that |
| Tx:5.91 | order of difficulty in miracles. He has not learned that every mind | God created is equally worthy of being healed because God created it |
| Tx:5.91 | every mind God created is equally worthy of being healed because | God created it whole. You are merely asked to return to God the mind |
| Tx:5.91 | because God created it whole. You are merely asked to return to | God the mind as He created it. He asks you only for what He gave, |
| Tx:5.92 | calls which you think are made upon you when you know the Voice of | God Himself is in you? God commended His Spirit to you and asks that |
| Tx:5.92 | are made upon you when you know the Voice of God Himself is in you? | God commended His Spirit to you and asks that you commend yours to |
| Tx:5.93 | because, as I told you before, the remedy is not of your making. | God Himself gave you the perfect correction for everything you have |
| Tx:5.93 | that you fulfill it. There is time for delay, but there need not be. | God weeps at the “sacrifice” of His Children, who believe they are |
| Tx:5.94 | is because you have reacted with a lack of love to some Soul which | God created. Perceiving this as “sin,” you become defensive because |
| Tx:5.95 | which does not come from you, is nevertheless within you because | God placed it there. Your part is merely to return your thinking to |
| Tx:5.96 | if I will let Him. I will to let Him, by allowing Him to decide for | God for Me. |
| Tx:6.6 | lies in the apparent intensity of the assault of some of the Sons of | God upon another. This, of course, is impossible and must be fully |
| Tx:6.9 | you are teaching persecution. This is not a lesson which the Sons of | God should want to teach if they are to realize their own salvation. |
| Tx:6.10 | is merely the dawning on your minds of what is already in them. | God placed it there Himself, and so it is true forever. I believed in |
| Tx:6.10 | Help me to teach it to our brothers in the name of the Kingdom of | God, but first believe that it is true for you, or you will teach |
| Tx:6.12 | love has a hidden altar which is not serving the purpose for which | God intended it. I must found His church on you because you who |
| Tx:6.13 | the ego did not matter. As the world judges these things, but not as | God knows them, I was betrayed, abandoned, beaten, torn, and finally |
| Tx:6.15 | to give in to anger and assault would not be so extreme. I will with | God that none of His Sons should suffer. |
| Tx:6.16 | Remember that the Holy Spirit is the communication link between | God the Father and His separated Sons. If you will listen to His |
| Tx:6.16 | is the symbol of sharing, because the reawakening of every Son of | God is necessary to enable the Sonship to know its wholeness. Only |
| Tx:6.21 | upon Judas was a similar reversal. Judas was my brother and a Son of | God, as much a part of the Sonship as myself. Was it likely that I |
| Tx:6.22 | but for teachers. No one is “punished” for sins, and the Sons of | God are not sinners. |
| Tx:6.23 | [is] the perfect symbol of conflict between the ego and the Son of | God. [It was as much intrapersonal as interpersonal then, just as it |
| Tx:6.23 | your weakened ability to be grateful, or you cannot appreciate | God. He does not need your appreciation, but you do. |
| Tx:6.24 | it. As a result, you will teach rejection. The power of the Sons of | God is operating all the time because they were created as creators. |
| Tx:6.24 | As long as you teach this, you still believe it. This is not as | God thinks, and you must think as He thinks if you are to know Him |
| Tx:6.25 | part of it, and this is the belief in separation. The wholeness of | God, which is His peace, cannot be appreciated except by a whole mind |
| Tx:6.30 | by realizing that you are not there? You cannot be anywhere that | God did not put you, and God created you as part of Him. That is both |
| Tx:6.30 | are not there? You cannot be anywhere that God did not put you, and | God created you as part of Him. That is both where you are and what |
| Tx:6.30 | It is forever true. It is not a belief but a fact. Anything that | God create[s] is as true as He is. Its truth lies only in its perfect |
| Tx:6.31 | of God's knowing. The ego's perception has no counterpart in | God, but the Holy Spirit remains the bridge between perception and |
| Tx:6.31 | Your perception will end where it began. Everything meets in | God, because everything was created by Him and in Him. |
| Tx:6.32 | God created His Sons by extending His Thought and retaining the | |
| Tx:6.32 | of inclusion, directed by the Holy Spirit under the laws of | God. God created you to create. You cannot extend His Kingdom until |
| Tx:6.32 | of inclusion, directed by the Holy Spirit under the laws of God. | God created you to create. You cannot extend His Kingdom until you |
| Tx:6.33 | therefore use it well. He can inspire perception and lead it toward | God by making it parallel to God's way of thinking and thus guarantee |
| Tx:6.34 | The Holy Spirit uses time but does not believe in it. Coming from | God, He uses everything for good, but He does not believe in what is |
| Tx:6.34 | true. The Holy Spirit can speak only for this because he speaks for | God. He tells you to return your whole mind to God, because it has |
| Tx:6.34 | because he speaks for God. He tells you to return your whole mind to | God, because it has never left Him. If it has never left Him, you |
| Tx:6.36 | Holy Spirit sees. This line is the direct line of communication with | God and lets your mind converge with His. There is no conflict |
| Tx:6.36 | all perception is guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on | God. Only the Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the Holy |
| Tx:6.37 | united, He offers the whole Kingdom always. This is the one message | God gave to Him and for which He must speak, because that is what He |
| Tx:6.37 | for which He must speak, because that is what He is. The peace of | God lies in that message, and so the peace of God lies in you. |
| Tx:6.37 | He is. The peace of God lies in that message, and so the peace of | God lies in you. |
| Tx:6.38 | and by joining our minds in this light, we proclaim the Kingdom of | God together and as one. |
| Tx:6.40 | nothing, He presents no barrier at all to the communication of | God. Thus, being is never threatened. Your Godlike mind can never be |
| Tx:6.42 | fully, it does not see the need to protect itself. The protection of | God then dawns upon it, assuring it that it is perfectly safe |
| Tx:6.46 | When | God created you, He made you part of Him. That is why attack within |
| Tx:6.46 | of your mind that believes you are separate and outside the Mind of | God. The ego, then, raised the first question that was ever asked, |
| Tx:6.50 | Spirit to all the questions which the ego raises. You are a Child of | God, a priceless part of His Kingdom, which He created as part of |
| Tx:6.50 | in which you have had bad dreams, but the sleep is not real, and | God calls you to awake. There will be nothing left of your dream when |
| Tx:6.51 | been. Being alone lives in the Kingdom, where everything lives in | God without question. The time that was spent on questioning in the |
| Tx:6.52 | You are as certain as | God because you are as true as He is, but what was once quite certain |
| Tx:6.53 | developed, or you cannot use them. This is not true of anything that | God created, but it is the kindest solution possible to what you have |
| Tx:6.54 | possible to be in one. You would be in an impossible situation if | God showed you your perfection and proved to you that you were wrong. |
| Tx:6.54 | This is the kind of “reasoning” which the ego engages in, but | God, Who knows that His creations are perfect, does not insult them. |
| Tx:6.55 | not exist. Fidelity to premises is a law of mind, and everything | God created is faithful to His laws. Fidelity to other laws is also |
| Tx:6.55 | laws are true, but because you made them. What would be gained if | God proved to you that you have thought insanely? Can God lose His |
| Tx:6.55 | be gained if God proved to you that you have thought insanely? Can | God lose His own certainty? We have frequently stated that what you |
| Tx:6.55 | have frequently stated that what you teach you are. Would you have | God teach you that you have sinned? If He confronted the self you |
| Tx:6.56 | God does not teach. To teach is to imply a lack, which God knows is | |
| Tx:6.56 | God does not teach. To teach is to imply a lack, which | God knows is not there. God is not conflicted. Teaching aims at |
| Tx:6.56 | teach. To teach is to imply a lack, which God knows is not there. | God is not conflicted. Teaching aims at change, but God created only |
| Tx:6.56 | is not there. God is not conflicted. Teaching aims at change, but | God created only the changeless. The separation was not a loss of |
| Tx:6.56 | arose as the ego's voice. It could not shatter the peace of | God, but it could shatter yours. God did not blot it out, because to |
| Tx:6.56 | It could not shatter the peace of God, but it could shatter yours. | God did not blot it out, because to eradicate it would be to attack |
| Tx:6.57 | what was not true. You did not believe in your own perfection. Could | God teach you that you had made a split mind, when He knows your mind |
| Tx:6.57 | had made a split mind, when He knows your mind only as whole? What | God does know is that His communication channels are not open to Him |
| Tx:6.60 | lies in dreams, and the Holy Spirit, shining with the light from | God Himself, speaks only for what lasts forever. |
| Tx:6.62 | God did not make the body because it is destructible and therefore | |
| Tx:6.64 | equality. Only one equal gift can be offered to the equal Sons of | God, and that is full appreciation. Nothing more and nothing less. |
| Tx:6.65 | The Holy Spirit, who leads to | God, translates communication into being, just as He ultimately |
| Tx:6.76 | is true, but the Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created by | God, and your decision cannot change it. As you begin to realize the |
| Tx:6.76 | help in reminding yourselves to allow the Holy Spirit to decide for | God for you. |
| Tx:6.80 | To desire wholly is to create, and creating cannot be difficult if | God Himself created you as a creator. The second step, then, is still |
| Tx:6.82 | every thought that you allow to enter your mind in the light of what | God put there. Whatever is in accord with this light, He retains to |
| Tx:6.84 | is necessary only in your mind so that you cannot project falsely. | God Himself has established what you can project with perfect safety. |
| Tx:6.85 | Be vigilant only for | God and His Kingdom. |
| Tx:6.89 | If you allow yourselves to have in your minds only what | God put there, you are acknowledging your mind as God created it. |
| Tx:6.89 | minds only what God put there, you are acknowledging your mind as | God created it. Therefore, you are accepting it as it is. Since it is |
| Tx:6.89 | you believe in it. The final step will still be taken for you by | God, but by the third step the Holy Spirit has prepared you for God. |
| Tx:6.89 | by God, but by the third step the Holy Spirit has prepared you for | God. He is getting you ready for the translation of having into being |
| Tx:6.91 | for your minds, allowing you to identify only with the center, where | God placed the altar to Himself. We have already said that altars are |
| Tx:6.91 | altar to Himself. We have already said that altars are beliefs, but | God and His creations are beyond belief, because they are beyond |
| Tx:6.91 | are beyond belief, because they are beyond question. The Voice for | God speaks only for belief beyond question, which is the preparation |
| Tx:6.91 | is the preparation for being without question. As long as belief in | God and His Kingdom is assailed by any doubts in your minds, His |
| Tx:6.93 | or you cannot know what you are with certainty. Certainty is of | God for you. Vigilance is not necessary for truth, but it is |
| Tx:6.94 | Kingdom which you valued, you did not keep only the Kingdom of | God in your minds and thus placed part of your mind outside it. What |
| Tx:6.95 | already true and needs no protection. It is in the perfect safety of | God. Therefore inclusion is total and creation is without limit. |
| Tx:7.1 | The creative power of both | God and His creations is limitless, but they are not in reciprocal |
| Tx:7.1 | are not in reciprocal relationship. You do communicate fully with | God, as He does with you. This is an ongoing process in which you |
| Tx:7.1 | you share, and because you share it, you are inspired to create like | God. Yet in creation you are not in reciprocal relation to God, since |
| Tx:7.1 | like God. Yet in creation you are not in reciprocal relation to | God, since He created you, but you did not create Him. We have |
| Tx:7.2 | If you created | God and He created you, the Kingdom could not increase through its |
| Tx:7.2 | would therefore be limited, and you would not be co-creators with | God. As God's creative Thought proceeds from Him to you, so must your |
| Tx:7.2 | the Kingdom. You claim this power when you become vigilant only for | God and His Kingdom. By accepting this power as yours, you have |
| Tx:7.3 | Your creations belong in you, as you belong in | God. You are part of God, as your sons are part of His Sons. To |
| Tx:7.3 | Your creations belong in you, as you belong in God. You are part of | God, as your sons are part of His Sons. To create is to love. Love |
| Tx:7.3 | Your creations have always been, because you can create only as | God creates. Eternity is yours, because He created you eternal. |
| Tx:7.4 | bargain is to limit giving, and this is not God's Will. To will with | God is to create like Him. God does not limit His gifts in any way. |
| Tx:7.4 | and this is not God's Will. To will with God is to create like Him. | God does not limit His gifts in any way. You are His gifts, and so |
| Tx:7.5 | what I was. What you believe you are determines your gifts, and if | God created you by extending Himself as you, you can only extend |
| Tx:7.5 | Only joy increases forever, since joy and eternity are inseparable. | God extends outward beyond limits and beyond time, and you who are |
| Tx:7.6 | To think like | God is to share His certainty of what you are and to create like Him |
| Tx:7.6 | leads you that your joy may be complete, because the Kingdom of | God is whole. We have said that the last step in the reawakening of |
| Tx:7.6 | said that the last step in the reawakening of knowledge is taken by | God. This is true, but it is hard to explain in words because words |
| Tx:7.7 | God does not take steps, because His accomplishments are not gradual. | |
| Tx:7.7 | applies neither to Him nor to what He created. The “last step” that | God [was said to] take was therefore true in the beginning, is true |
| Tx:7.8 | know what it is. You also do not know what created it or Who He is. | God does not reveal this to you, because it was never hidden. His |
| Tx:7.9 | only kind of thinking in this world that resembles the Thought of | God, and because of the elements which they share, can transfer to |
| Tx:7.9 | itself obscure to both of you. Sickness and separation are not of | God, but the Kingdom is. If you obscure the Kingdom, you are |
| Tx:7.9 | is. If you obscure the Kingdom, you are perceiving what is not of | God. |
| Tx:7.14 | or learning, because there is no belief. There is only certainty. | God and His Sons, in the surety of being, know that what you project |
| Tx:7.14 | form of the law is not adapted at all, being the law of creation. | God Himself created the law by creating by it. And His Sons, who |
| Tx:7.15 | is retained. The Holy Spirit is the translator of the laws of | God to those who do not understand them. You could not do this |
| Tx:7.18 | Kingdom, because there is only one meaning. This meaning comes from | God and is God. Because it is also you, you share it and extend it as |
| Tx:7.18 | there is only one meaning. This meaning comes from God and is | God. Because it is also you, you share it and extend it as your |
| Tx:7.18 | nothing discordant ever enters. That is why it is the Kingdom of | God. It belongs to Him and is therefore like Him. That is its |
| Tx:7.24 | all efforts and all results. By teaching the power of the Kingdom of | God Himself, He teaches you that all power is yours. Its application |
| Tx:7.30 | God has lit your minds Himself and keeps your minds lit by His light, | |
| Tx:7.32 | Healing is also a science, because it obeys the laws of | God, Whose laws are true. Because they are true, they are perfectly |
| Tx:7.33 | be recognized. Inspiration is of the Spirit, and certainty is of | God according to His laws. Both, therefore, come from the same |
| Tx:7.33 | from the same Source, [because] inspiration comes from the Voice for | God, and certainty comes from the laws of God. Healing does not come |
| Tx:7.33 | comes from the Voice for God, and certainty comes from the laws of | God. Healing does not come directly from God, Who knows His creations |
| Tx:7.33 | comes from the laws of God. Healing does not come directly from | God, Who knows His creations as perfectly whole. Yet healing is |
| Tx:7.33 | His creations as perfectly whole. Yet healing is [nevertheless] of | God, because it proceeds from His Voice and from His laws. It is |
| Tx:7.34 | This is an intermediary step toward the knowledge that you are in | God, because you are part of Him. The miracles which the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:7.34 | creation is of one order. This is God's Will and yours. The laws of | God establish this, and the Holy Spirit reminds you of it. When you |
| Tx:7.34 | reminds you of it. When you heal, you are remembering the laws of | God and forgetting the laws of the ego. We said before that |
| Tx:7.35 | of wholeness, and by learning of wholeness you learn to remember | God. You have forgotten Him, but the Holy Spirit still knows that |
| Tx:7.36 | this belief. This perception is therefore in accord with the laws of | God, even in a state of mind which is out of accord with His. The |
| Tx:7.37 | To oppose the pull or the Will of | God is not an ability but a real delusion. The ego believes that it |
| Tx:7.37 | a gift. You do not want it. It is not a gift. It is nothing at all. | God has given you a gift which you both have and are. When you do not |
| Tx:7.37 | of approaching knowledge by thinking in accordance with the laws of | God and recognizing their universality. Without this recognition, you |
| Tx:7.38 | ye first the Kingdom of Heaven, because that is where the laws of | God operate truly, and they can operate only truly since they are the |
| Tx:7.38 | this only because you can find nothing else. There is nothing else. | God is all in all in a very literal sense. All being is in Him who is |
| Tx:7.42 | who does not have it. He may believe that the gift comes from | God to Him, but it is quite evident that he does not understand God |
| Tx:7.42 | from God to Him, but it is quite evident that he does not understand | God if he thinks he has something that others [do not]. You might |
| Tx:7.44 | He is therefore in conflict and teaching conflict. Can anything of | God not be for all and for always? |
| Tx:7.46 | is predictable, because it can be counted on. Everything that is of | God can be counted on, because everything of God is wholly real. |
| Tx:7.46 | Everything that is of God can be counted on, because everything of | God is wholly real. Healing can be counted on, because it is inspired |
| Tx:7.46 | inconsistently understood. Understanding means consistence because | God means consistence. Since that is His meaning, it is also yours. |
| Tx:7.46 | meaning, and your only meaning, comes from His and is like His. | God cannot be out of accord with Himself, and you cannot be out of |
| Tx:7.47 | is constant and so vital in its power for change that a Son of | God can recognize his power in one instant and change the world in |
| Tx:7.48 | This in no way contradicts the changelessness of mind as | God created it, but you think that you have changed it as long as you |
| Tx:7.50 | That is how | God Himself created you—in understanding, in appreciation, and in |
| Tx:7.53 | you and on the whole Sonship, because this is your proper gift to | God. He will accept it and give it to the Sonship, because it is |
| Tx:7.53 | This is the true communion of the Spirit, Who sees the altar of | God in everyone and, by bringing it to your appreciation, calls upon |
| Tx:7.53 | and, by bringing it to your appreciation, calls upon you to love | God and His creations. You can appreciate the Sonship only as one. |
| Tx:7.54 | will affect his total perception. That includes his perception of | God, of His creations, and of his own. He will not appreciate any of |
| Tx:7.61 | the Holy Spirit offers you, you cannot be vigilant for anything but | God and His Kingdom. The only reason you find this difficult is |
| Tx:7.62 | When you believe what | God does not know, your thought seems to contradict His, and this |
| Tx:7.62 | have repeatedly emphasized that the ego does believe it can attack | God and tries to persuade you that you have done this. If the mind |
| Tx:7.64 | in total contradiction to the Holy Spirit and to the knowledge of | God. |
| Tx:7.65 | only by the Holy Spirit, because your being is the knowledge of | God. Any belief that you accept which is apart from this will obscure |
| Tx:7.65 | from this will obscure God's Voice in you and will therefore obscure | God to you. Unless you perceive His creation truly, you cannot know |
| Tx:7.65 | you perceive His creation truly, you cannot know the Creator, since | God and His creation are not separate. The Oneness of the Creator and |
| Tx:7.68 | sad because you are not fulfilling your function as co-creators with | God and are therefore depriving yourselves of joy. This is not God's |
| Tx:7.71 | Holy Spirit, [the law becomes as beneficent as all of the laws of | God. Stated positively,] the law requires you to recognize only part |
| Tx:7.72 | is no way for you to have it except by giving it. This is the law of | God, and it has no exceptions. What you deny you lack, not because it |
| Tx:7.75 | you forget yourselves. Give only honor to the Sons of the living | God and count yourselves among them gladly. |
| Tx:7.76 | Only honor is a fitting gift for those whom | God Himself created worthy of honor and whom He honors. Give them the |
| Tx:7.76 | worthy of honor and whom He honors. Give them the appreciation which | God accords them always, because they are His beloved Sons in whom He |
| Tx:7.77 | One Child of | God is the only teacher sufficiently worthy to teach another. One |
| Tx:7.77 | to all. He always teaches you the inestimable worth of every Son of | God, teaching it with infinite patience born of the [love of Him for |
| Tx:7.79 | believe it is responsible for itself and being without allegiance to | God, the ego is incapable of trust. Projecting its insane belief that |
| Tx:7.79 | brothers, who are as incapable of this as you are, are out to take | God from you. Whenever a brother attacks another, this is what he |
| Tx:7.79 | sees your will in others. If you will to separate yourself from | God, that is what you will think others are doing to you. |
| Tx:7.80 | You are the Will of | God. Do not accept anything else as your will, or you are denying |
| Tx:7.80 | will attack, believing you have been attacked. But see the love of | God in you, and you will see it everywhere, because it is everywhere. |
| Tx:7.80 | you are in Him with them. They are part of you, as you are part of | God. You are as lonely without understanding this as God Himself is |
| Tx:7.80 | you are part of God. You are as lonely without understanding this as | God Himself is lonely when His Sons do not know Him. The peace of God |
| Tx:7.80 | as God Himself is lonely when His Sons do not know Him. The peace of | God is understanding this. There is only one way out of the world's |
| Tx:7.81 | to the Kingdom are gifts to you. They will always be treasured by | God, because they belong to His beloved Sons who belong to Him. All |
| Tx:7.82 | It is the law which unifies the Kingdom and keeps it in the Mind of | God. To the ego, the law is perceived as a way of getting rid of |
| Tx:7.84 | free yourself. The ego, using its own warped version of the laws of | God, utilizes the power of the mind only to defeat the mind's real |
| Tx:7.87 | It is the distorted product of the misapplication of the laws of | God by distorted minds which are misusing their own power. |
| Tx:7.91 | Only you can limit your creative power, but | God wills to release it. He no more wills you to deprive yourself of |
| Tx:7.91 | withhold your gifts to the Sonship, or you withhold yourself from | God. Selfishness is of the ego, but self-fullness is of the Soul, |
| Tx:7.91 | is of the ego, but self-fullness is of the Soul, because that is how | God created it. The Holy Spirit is the part of the mind that lies |
| Tx:7.92 | of all its brothers is included in its own, as it is included in | God. The power of the whole Sonship and of its Creator is therefore |
| Tx:7.92 | perfection. The ego cannot prevail against a totality which includes | God, and any totality must include God. Everything He created is |
| Tx:7.92 | against a totality which includes God, and any totality must include | God. Everything He created is given all His power, because it is part |
| Tx:7.93 | by sharing, its will is to create. It does not wish to contain | God but to extend His Being. The extension of God's Being is the |
| Tx:7.93 | as unfulfilled. Unless you create, you are unfulfilled; but | God does not know of unfulfillment, and therefore you must create. |
| Tx:7.94 | The Kingdom is forever extending, because it is in the Mind of | God. You do not know your joy, because you do not know your own |
| Tx:7.95 | your fulfillment includes them. The creations of every Son of | God are yours since every creation belongs to everyone, being created |
| Tx:7.96 | You have not failed to add to the inheritance of the Sons of | God and thus have not failed to secure it for yourselves. If it was |
| Tx:7.96 | have not failed to secure it for yourselves. If it was the Will of | God to give it to you, He gave it forever. If it was His Will that |
| Tx:7.98 | not possible that you have done the same thing with the premises of | God? |
| Tx:7.100 | Yet the function which | God Himself gave your minds through His you may deny, but you cannot |
| Tx:7.102 | to you and one which is both very fearful and very desirable. Yet | God wills. He does not wish. Your will is as powerful as His because |
| Tx:7.102 | You can wish for the impossible, but you can will only with | God. This is the ego's weakness and your strength. |
| Tx:7.104 | surprising.] The Holy Spirit is perfectly trustworthy, as you are. | God Himself trusts you, and therefore your trustworthiness is beyond |
| Tx:7.105 | We said before that you are the Will of | God. His Will is not an idle wish, and your identification with His |
| Tx:7.105 | by your wish. It was accomplished for you by the Will of | God, Who has not left you comfortless. His Voice will teach you how |
| Tx:7.105 | which you have made. There is no confusion in the mind of a Son of | God whose will must be the Will of the Father, because the Father's |
| Tx:7.106 | Miracles are in accord with the Will of | God Whose Will you do not know, because you are confused about what |
| Tx:7.107 | This is His Will for everyone, because He speaks for the Kingdom of | God which is joy. Following Him is therefore the easiest thing in the |
| Tx:7.108 | Grace is the natural state of every Son of | God. When he is not in a state of grace, he is out of his natural |
| Tx:7.108 | nor can he adapt it to him. There is no point in trying. A Son of | God is happy only when he knows he is with God. That is the only |
| Tx:7.108 | point in trying. A Son of God is happy only when he knows he is with | God. That is the only environment in which he will not experience |
| Tx:7.109 | and judge its worth fairly. Is it worthy to be a home for a Child of | God? Does it protect his peace and shine love upon him? Does it keep |
| Tx:7.109 | of loss? Does it teach him that this giving is his joy and that | God Himself thanks him for his giving? That is the only environment |
| Tx:7.109 | yourselves. It has been created for you, as you were created for it. | God watches over His Children and denies them nothing. Yet when they |
| Tx:7.110 | You who could give the love of | God to everything you see and touch and remember are literally |
| Tx:7.110 | this lesson in his heart has healed the Sonship and given thanks to | God. Everyone who learns this lesson has become the perfect teacher, |
| Tx:7.111 | The Majesty of | God is there for you to recognize and appreciate and know. Perceiving |
| Tx:7.111 | you to recognize and appreciate and know. Perceiving the Majesty of | God as your brother is to accept your own inheritance. God gives only |
| Tx:7.111 | Majesty of God as your brother is to accept your own inheritance. | God gives only equally. If you recognize His gift in anyone else, you |
| Tx:7.112 | before that only the whole Sonship is worthy to be co-creator with | God, because only the whole Sonship can create like Him. Whenever you |
| Tx:7.112 | and you must have the glory you see in him. He is a co-creator with | God with you. Deny his creative power, and you are denying yours and |
| Tx:7.112 | you. Deny his creative power, and you are denying yours and that of | God, Who created you. You cannot deny part of truth. You do not know |
| Tx:7.113 | God's. But you can know both. Being is known by sharing. Because | God shared His Being with you, you can know Him. But you must also |
| Tx:7.113 | your Father, you will not know your fatherhood. The Kingdom of | God includes all His Sons and their children, who are like the Sons |
| Tx:7.113 | are like the Sons as they are like the Father. Know then the Sons of | God, and you will know all creation. |
| Tx:8.2 | restored when you meet its conditions. This is not a bargain made by | God, Who makes no bargains. It is merely the result of your misuse of |
| Tx:8.9 | make anything but sense? Is this the teacher to whom a Son of | God should turn to find himself? The ego has never given you a |
| Tx:8.10 | is free. That is why the ego is the denial of free will. It is never | God who coerces you because He shares His Will with you. His Voice |
| Tx:8.11 | The Holy Spirit opposes any imprisoning of the will of a Son of | God, knowing that the will of the Son is the Father's. The Holy |
| Tx:8.13 | and has only one goal. His direction is freedom, and His goal is | God. Yet He cannot conceive of God without you, because it is not |
| Tx:8.13 | direction is freedom, and His goal is God. Yet He cannot conceive of | God without you, because it is not God's Will to be without you. When |
| Tx:8.13 | is freedom and this is joy. Deny yourself this and you are denying | God His Kingdom because He created you for this. When we said, “All |
| Tx:8.14 | The Will of | God is without limit, and all power and glory lie within it. It is |
| Tx:8.14 | all things, it made them part of itself. You are the Will of | God, because this is how you were created. Because your Creator |
| Tx:8.15 | runs easily and gladly through the Kingdom in answer to the call of | God. This is the natural response of every Son of God to the Voice of |
| Tx:8.15 | to the call of God. This is the natural response of every Son of | God to the Voice of his Creator, because it is the Voice for his |
| Tx:8.16 | Glory be to | God in the highest and to you, because He has so willed it. Ask and |
| Tx:8.17 | To fulfill the Will of | God perfectly is the only joy and peace that can be fully known, |
| Tx:8.17 | how to teach this, but you do not. That is why you need Him and why | God gave Him to you. Only His teaching will release your will to |
| Tx:8.17 | power and glory and establishing them as yours. You share them as | God shares them, because this is the natural outcome of their being. |
| Tx:8.18 | His own Fatherhood must be extended outward. You who belong in | God have the holy function of extending His Fatherhood by placing no |
| Tx:8.18 | Spirit teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means of | God Himself. |
| Tx:8.19 | will find yourself or lose sight of yourself. Whenever two Sons of | God meet, they are given another chance at salvation. Do not leave |
| Tx:8.23 | You can encounter only part of yourself, because you are part of | God, Who is everything. His power and glory are everywhere, and you |
| Tx:8.23 | is in you alone. The Holy Spirit teaches that all strength is in | God and therefore in you. God wills no one suffer. He does not will |
| Tx:8.23 | Spirit teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you. | God wills no one suffer. He does not will anyone to suffer for a |
| Tx:8.24 | Power and glory belong to | God alone. So do you. God gives whatever belongs to Him, because He |
| Tx:8.24 | Power and glory belong to God alone. So do you. | God gives whatever belongs to Him, because He gives of Himself, and |
| Tx:8.28 | impossible. Your reactions to me are the reactions of the world to | God. If you will accept the fact that I am with you, you are denying |
| Tx:8.28 | the fact that I am with you, you are denying the world and accepting | God. My will is His, and your will to hear me is the decision to hear |
| Tx:8.28 | hear me is the decision to hear His Voice and abide in His Will. As | God sent me to you, so will I send you to others, and I will go to |
| Tx:8.31 | because yours is as powerful as mine. If it were not so, the Sons of | God would be unequal. All things are possible through our joint will, |
| Tx:8.31 | but my will alone cannot help you. Your will is as free as mine, and | God Himself would not go against it. I cannot will what God does not |
| Tx:8.31 | as mine, and God Himself would not go against it. I cannot will what | God does not will. I can offer you my will to make yours invincible |
| Tx:8.32 | Nothing | God created can oppose your will, as nothing God created can oppose |
| Tx:8.32 | Nothing God created can oppose your will, as nothing | God created can oppose His. God gave your will its power, which I can |
| Tx:8.32 | created can oppose your will, as nothing God created can oppose His. | God gave your will its power, which I can only acknowledge in honor |
| Tx:8.33 | yourself. In our remembrance of each other lies our remembrance of | God, and in this remembrance lies your freedom, because your freedom |
| Tx:8.36 | the power of its separate parts. By not being separate, the Will of | God is established in ours and as ours. This will is invincible, |
| Tx:8.36 | the Sonship is the perfect creator, being wholly in the likeness of | God, Whose Will it is. You cannot be exempt from it if you are to |
| Tx:8.36 | your will from mine, you are exempting yourself from the Will of | God, which is yourself. |
| Tx:8.37 | Him, how can you know it without recognizing Him? The recognition of | God is the recognition of yourself. There is no separation of God and |
| Tx:8.37 | of God is the recognition of yourself. There is no separation of | God and His creation. You will learn this as you learn that there is |
| Tx:8.37 | that there is no separation of your will and mine. Let the love of | God shine upon you by your acceptance of me. My reality is yours and |
| Tx:8.37 | will with mine, you are signifying your awareness that the Will of | God is one. |
| Tx:8.38 | all truth. As we unite, we unite with Him. Glory be to the union of | God and His holy Sons! All glory lies in them because they are |
| Tx:8.39 | toward truth. Our success in transcending the ego is guaranteed by | God, and I can share [my perfect confidence in His promise, because I |
| Tx:8.39 | nothing can prevail against God's. Would you know the Will of | God for you? Ask it of me who knows it for you, and you will find it. |
| Tx:8.39 | knows it for you, and you will find it. I will deny you nothing, as | God denies me nothing. |
| Tx:8.40 | Ours is simply the journey back to | God, Who is our home. Whenever fear intrudes anywhere along the road |
| Tx:8.42 | He will welcome us as I am welcoming you. Forget not the Kingdom of | God for anything the world has to offer. The world can add nothing to |
| Tx:8.42 | to offer. The world can add nothing to the power and the glory of | God and His holy Sons, but it can blind the Sons to the Father if |
| Tx:8.42 | the Father if they behold it. You cannot behold the world and know | God. Only one is true. |
| Tx:8.43 | is not yours. If it were, you would have destroyed yourselves. Yet | God did not will the destruction of His creations, having created |
| Tx:8.43 | denies, for over His Kingdom, it has no power. No one created by | God can find joy in anything except the eternal. That is not because |
| Tx:8.43 | of anything else, but because nothing else is worthy of him. What | God and His Sons create is eternal, and in this and this only is |
| Tx:8.45 | God wants only His Son because His Son is His only treasure. You want | |
| Tx:8.45 | than you have left your Creator, but they extend your creation as | God extended Himself to you. Can the creations of God Himself take |
| Tx:8.45 | your creation as God extended Himself to you. Can the creations of | God Himself take joy in what is not real? And what is real except the |
| Tx:8.45 | joy in what is not real? And what is real except the creations of | God and those which are created like His? Your creations love you as |
| Tx:8.46 | could not make yourself unworthy, because you are the treasure of | God. What He values is valuable. There can be no question of its |
| Tx:8.47 | from you, because His joy is in it. You cannot find joy except as | God does. His joy lay in creating you, and He extends His Fatherhood |
| Tx:8.47 | know his function unless he knows who he is. Creation is the Will of | God. His Will created you to create. Your will was not created |
| Tx:8.48 | no meaning at all.] When you think you are unwilling to will with | God, you are not thinking. God's Will is thought. It cannot be |
| Tx:8.48 | God's Will is thought. It cannot be contradicted by thought. | God does not contradict Himself, and His Sons, who are like Him, |
| Tx:8.49 | power of God's Son lies in all of us, but not in any of us alone. | God would not have us be alone, because He does not will to be alone. |
| Tx:8.50 | Our creations are as holy as we are, and we are the Sons of | God Himself and therefore as holy as He is. Through our creations, we |
| Tx:8.50 | Given this belief, you cannot understand anything. I share with | God the knowledge of the value He puts upon you. My devotion to you |
| Tx:8.50 | born of my knowledge of myself and Him. We cannot be separated. Whom | God has joined cannot be separated, and God has joined all His Sons |
| Tx:8.50 | We cannot be separated. Whom God has joined cannot be separated, and | God has joined all His Sons with Himself. Can you be separated from |
| Tx:8.51 | The journey to | God is merely the reawakening of the knowledge of where you are |
| Tx:8.51 | make you aware of the conditions of truth, but the experience is of | God. Together we can meet its conditions, but truth will dawn upon |
| Tx:8.52 | What | God has willed for you is yours. He has given His Will to His |
| Tx:8.52 | lies where your treasure is, as His does. You who are beloved of | God are wholly blessed. Learn this of me, and free the holy will of |
| Tx:8.53 | with a body, you will always experience depression. When a Child of | God thinks of himself in this way, he is belittling himself and |
| Tx:8.54 | as a means of communication. Being the communication link between | God and His separated Sons, the Holy Spirit interprets everything you |
| Tx:8.55 | the only reality anything can have is the service it can render | God on behalf of the function He has given it. |
| Tx:8.57 | you, he is holy. As part of me, you are. To communicate with part of | God Himself is to reach beyond the Kingdom to its Creator through His |
| Tx:8.58 | gifts from you, but you have withdrawn them from Him. Let no Son of | God remain hidden for His Name's sake, because His Name is yours. |
| Tx:8.61 | devotion to the ego. In this sense, the body does become a temple to | God, because His Voice abides in it by directing the use to which it |
| Tx:8.67 | salvation. You have condemned yourself, but condemnation is not of | God. Therefore, it is not true. No more are any of the results of |
| Tx:8.68 | thought in this world, and you will open your mind to creation in | God. |
| Tx:8.85 | is impossible since it would mean to make nothing out of what | God created. The ego despises weakness, even though it makes every |
| Tx:8.86 | be taken literally because the Bible is about love, being about | God. |
| Tx:8.88 | which argues for your doing it. I give you no limits because | God lays none upon you. When you limit yourself, we are not of one |
| Tx:8.89 | only to meet the conditions for meaning since meaning itself is of | God. Yet your return to meaning is essential to His because your |
| Tx:8.90 | Fear of the Will of | God is one of the strangest beliefs that the human mind has ever |
| Tx:8.90 | since reality can only uphold truth. The very fact that the Will of | God, which is what you are, is perceived as fearful to you |
| Tx:8.90 | that you are afraid of what you are. It is not, then, the Will of | God of which you are afraid, but yours. Your will is not the ego's, |
| Tx:8.90 | and that is why the ego is against you. What seems to be the fear of | God is really only the fear of your own reality. |
| Tx:8.93 | the power to look into what you have hidden and perceive the Will of | God there. His perception of this will can make it real to you |
| Tx:8.97 | is different from His, it can only decide either that there is no | God or that God's Will is fearful. The former accounts for the |
| Tx:8.97 | many forms, the category including all doctrines which hold that | God demands sacrifices of any kind. Either basic type of insane |
| Tx:8.97 | the atheist believes he is alone, and the martyr believes that | God is crucifying him. Both really fear abandonment and retaliation, |
| Tx:8.98 | The atheist maintains that | God has left him, but he does not care. He will, however, become very |
| Tx:8.98 | become very fearful and hence very angry if anyone suggests that | God has not left him. The martyr, on the other hand, is more aware of |
| Tx:8.98 | is totally incapable of giving you anything that does not come from | God. His task is not to make anything for you.] He cannot make you |
| Tx:8.99 | Ultimately everyone must remember the Will of | God, because ultimately everyone must recognize himself. This |
| Tx:8.99 | only seem to be fearful. Fear cannot be real without a cause, and | God is the only Cause. God is Love, and you do want Him. This is your |
| Tx:8.99 | Fear cannot be real without a cause, and God is the only Cause. | God is Love, and you do want Him. This is your will. Ask for this and |
| Tx:8.100 | are real, being of your will. Would the Holy Spirit deny the Will of | God? And could He fail to recognize it in His Sons? |
| Tx:8.101 | to be happy is totally at variance with the principle of creation. | God could not will that happiness depended on what you could never |
| Tx:8.102 | The fact that | God is love does not require belief, but it does require acceptance. |
| Tx:8.104 | God in His devotion to you created you devoted to everything and gave | |
| Tx:8.106 | Christ is in me, and where He is | God must be, for Christ is part of Him. |
| Tx:8.110 | If you would know your prayers are answered, never doubt a Son of | God. Do not question him and do not confound him, for your faith in |
| Tx:8.110 | for your faith in him is your faith in yourself. If you would know | God and His Answer, believe in me whose faith in you cannot be |
| Tx:8.112 | from your mind to his and answers you. You cannot hear the Voice for | God in yourself alone because you are not alone. And His answer is |
| Tx:8.112 | in others. It must be for your brother because it is for you. Would | God have created a Voice for you alone? Could you hear His answer |
| Tx:8.113 | I love you for the truth in you, as | God does. Your deceptions may deceive you, but they cannot deceive |
| Tx:8.114 | justified. Believe in me by believing in them for the sake of what | God gave them. They will answer you if you learn to ask truth of |
| Tx:8.117 | to get much for little is to believe that you can bargain with | God. God's laws are always fair and perfectly consistent. By giving |
| Tx:9.2 | error is at another level. He is still right, because he is a Son of | God. His ego is always wrong, no matter what it says or does. |
| Tx:9.7 | and this can only be the arrogance of the ego. Correction is of | God, Who does not know of arrogance. The Holy Spirit forgives |
| Tx:9.7 | not know of arrogance. The Holy Spirit forgives everything, because | God created everything. |
| Tx:9.8 | the function of healing in time, because that is what time is for. | God gave you the function to create in eternity. You do not need to |
| Tx:9.11 | the ability to share, He translates what you have made into what | God created. If you would accomplish this through Him, you cannot |
| Tx:9.13 | forgetting that my words make perfect sense because they come from | God. They are as sensible now as they ever were, because they speak |
| Tx:9.18 | reality. Only if the decision that reality is fearful is wrong can | God be right. And I assure you that God is right. Be glad, then, that |
| Tx:9.18 | reality is fearful is wrong can God be right. And I assure you that | God is right. Be glad, then, that you have been wrong, but this was |
| Tx:9.18 | you were. Had you remembered, you could no more have been wrong than | God can. The impossible can happen only in fantasy. When you search |
| Tx:9.19 | Behold, my children, reality is here. It belongs to you and me and | God and is perfectly satisfying to all of us. Only this awareness |
| Tx:9.22 | and advocate a very fearful solution. Projecting condemnation onto | God, they make Him appear retaliative and fear His retribution. What |
| Tx:9.25 | but he does not know it himself. What, then, should happen? When | God said, “Let there be light,” there was light. Can you find light |
| Tx:9.27 | his mind will therefore answer the questioner, who must decide with | God that there is light because he sees it. And by his |
| Tx:9.28 | right one will. Trust Him, for help is His function, and He is of | God. |
| Tx:9.33 | yourself. And as you call upon it in them, it becomes real to you. | God has but one Son, knowing them all as one. Only God Himself is |
| Tx:9.33 | real to you. God has but one Son, knowing them all as one. Only | God Himself is more than they, but they are not less than He is. |
| Tx:9.33 | are part of you, everything we do belongs to you as well. Every Soul | God created is part of you and shares His glory with you. His Glory |
| Tx:9.34 | God is more than you only because He created you, but not even this | |
| Tx:9.34 | wholeness until you see it everywhere. You can know yourself only as | God knows His Son, for knowledge is shared with God. When you awake |
| Tx:9.34 | yourself only as God knows His Son, for knowledge is shared with | God. When you awake in Him you will know your magnitude by accepting |
| Tx:9.37 | them with you. You will never know that you are co-creator with | God until you learn that your brother is a co-creator with you. |
| Tx:9.38 | because they will not return, but because delay of joy is needless. | God wills you perfect happiness now. Is it possible that this is not |
| Tx:9.43 | this contrast can insanity be judged as insane. With the grandeur of | God in you, you have chosen to be little and to lament your |
| Tx:9.44 | belief you hold in terms of where it comes from. If it comes from | God, He knows it to be true. If it does not, He knows that it is |
| Tx:9.46 | God Himself is incomplete without me. | |
| Tx:9.47 | hear it. The truth about you is so lofty that nothing unworthy of | God is worthy of you. Choose, then, what you want in these terms and |
| Tx:9.47 | want in these terms and accept nothing that you would not offer to | God as wholly fitting for Him, for you do not want anything else. |
| Tx:9.48 | Grandeur is of | God and only of Him. Therefore, it is in you. Whenever you become |
| Tx:9.48 | the ego automatically, because in the presence of the grandeur of | God the meaninglessness of the ego becomes perfectly apparent. Though |
| Tx:9.48 | The grandiosity] of the ego is its alternative to the grandeur of | God. Which will you choose? |
| Tx:9.52 | afraid of it because it is a form of attack, but your grandeur is of | God, Who created it out of His Love. From your grandeur you can only |
| Tx:9.52 | protecting it from illusions and keeping yourself in the Mind of | God. Remember always that you cannot be anywhere except in the Mind |
| Tx:9.52 | Remember always that you cannot be anywhere except in the Mind of | God. When you forget this, you will despair, and you will attack. |
| Tx:9.55 | but they cannot attest to pride, because pride is not shared. | God wants you to behold what He created, because it is His joy. |
| Tx:9.56 | Can your grandeur be arrogant when | God Himself witnesses to it? And what can be real that has no |
| Tx:9.56 | Holy Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot transform to the Will of | God does not exist at all. Grandiosity is delusional, because it is |
| Tx:9.56 | is delusional, because it is used to replace your grandeur. Yet what | God has created cannot be replaced. God is incomplete without you, |
| Tx:9.56 | replace your grandeur. Yet what God has created cannot be replaced. | God is incomplete without you, because His grandeur is total, and you |
| Tx:9.57 | You are altogether irreplaceable in the Mind of | God. No one else can fill your part of it, and while you leave your |
| Tx:9.57 | part of it empty, your eternal place merely waits for your return. | God, through His Voice, reminds you of it, and God Himself keeps your |
| Tx:9.57 | for your return. God, through His Voice, reminds you of it, and | God Himself keeps your extensions safe within it. Yet you do not know |
| Tx:9.57 | You cannot replace the Kingdom, and you cannot replace yourself. | God, Who knows your value, would not have it so, and so it is not so. |
| Tx:9.57 | God's Mind and therefore not in yours alone. To accept yourself as | God created you cannot be arrogance, because it is the denial of |
| Tx:9.58 | will tell you, but do not be afraid of His answer, for it comes from | God. It is an exalted answer because of its Source, but the Source is |
| Tx:9.58 | and so is Its answer. Listen and do not question what you hear, for | God does not deceive. He would have you replace the ego's belief in |
| Tx:9.60 | God created nothing beside you, and nothing beside you exists, for | |
| Tx:9.61 | God does not change His Mind about you, for He is not uncertain of | |
| Tx:9.61 | Him. That is why your will is holy. Can anything exceed the love of | God? Can anything, then, exceed your will? Nothing can reach you from |
| Tx:9.61 | your will? Nothing can reach you from beyond it because, being in | God, you encompass everything. Believe this, and you will realize how |
| Tx:9.62 | Has | God changed His Mind about me? |
| Tx:9.63 | is indeed changeless, and refuse to change your mind about yourself. | God will never decide against you, or He would be deciding against |
| Tx:9.64 | created is impossible. But remember that it is as impossible for | God. The law of creation is that you love your creations as yourself |
| Tx:9.64 | that was created is therefore perfectly safe, because the laws of | God protect it by His Love. Any part of your mind that does not know |
| Tx:9.65 | this recognition lies the realization that your banishment is not of | God and therefore does not exist. You are at home in God, dreaming of |
| Tx:9.65 | is not of God and therefore does not exist. You are at home in | God, dreaming of exile but perfectly capable of awakening to reality. |
| Tx:9.69 | Spirit only your will to remember, for He retains the knowledge of | God and of yourself for you, waiting for your acceptance. Give up |
| Tx:9.69 | everything that would stand in the way of your remembering, for | God is in your memory, and His Voice will tell you that you are part |
| Tx:9.70 | this world is the perceptual counterpart of creating in the Kingdom. | God will do His part if you will do yours, and His return in exchange |
| Tx:9.71 | of defenses always constitutes an attack on truth and truth is | God, you will realize why this is always fearful. If you further |
| Tx:9.71 | is always fearful. If you further recognize that you are part of | God, you will understand why it is that you always attack yourself |
| Tx:9.73 | against your reality, you have made yourself vigilant against | God and His Kingdom. And it is this vigilance that makes you afraid |
| Tx:9.74 | You have not attacked | God, and you do love Him. Can you change your reality? No one can |
| Tx:9.74 | them. The idols are nothing, but their worshipers are the Sons of | God in sickness. |
| Tx:9.75 | God would have them released from their sickness and returned to His | |
| Tx:9.75 | your salvation. What Comforter can there be for the sick Children of | God except His power through you? Remember that it does not matter |
| Tx:9.75 | throughout the Sonship. Heal your brothers simply by accepting | God for them. |
| Tx:9.76 | Your minds are not separate, and | God has only one channel for healing, because He has but one Son. His |
| Tx:9.76 | no one is separate, and so no one is sick. To believe that a Son of | God can be sick is to believe that part of God can suffer. Love |
| Tx:9.76 | To believe that a Son of God can be sick is to believe that part of | God can suffer. Love cannot suffer, because it cannot attack. The |
| Tx:9.77 | Do not side with sickness in the presence of a Son of | God even if he believes in it, for your acceptance of God in him |
| Tx:9.77 | of a Son of God even if he believes in it, for your acceptance of | God in him acknowledges the love of God which he has forgotten. Your |
| Tx:9.77 | in it, for your acceptance of God in him acknowledges the love of | God which he has forgotten. Your recognition of him as part of God |
| Tx:9.77 | of God which he has forgotten. Your recognition of him as part of | God teaches him the truth about himself, which he is denying. Would |
| Tx:9.77 | himself, which he is denying. Would you strengthen his denial of | God and thus lose sight of yourself? Or would you remind him of his |
| Tx:9.77 | wholeness and remember your Creator with him? To believe a Son of | God is sick is to worship the same idol he does. God created love, |
| Tx:9.77 | To believe a Son of God is sick is to worship the same idol he does. | God created love, not idolatry. All forms of idolatry are caricatures |
| Tx:9.77 | be taken from you. Yet this is impossible, because you are part of | God, Who is all power. |
| Tx:9.78 | A sick | god must be an idol, made in the image of what its maker thinks he |
| Tx:9.78 | he is. And that is exactly what the ego does perceive in a Son of | God; a sick god, self-created, self-sufficient, very vicious, and |
| Tx:9.78 | that is exactly what the ego does perceive in a Son of God; a sick | god, self-created, self-sufficient, very vicious, and very |
| Tx:9.79 | in the Kingdom, but there is great appreciation for every Soul which | God created because of the calm knowledge that each one is part of |
| Tx:9.79 | When I said, “My peace I give unto you,” I meant it. Peace came from | God through me to you. It was for you, although you did not ask. |
| Tx:9.80 | denial of illusion, and sickness is an illusion. Yet every Son of | God has the power to deny illusions anywhere in the Kingdom merely by |
| Tx:9.81 | you heard. But have no other gods before Him, or you will not hear. | God is not jealous of the gods you make, but you are. You would save |
| Tx:9.81 | projecting onto them the fearful fact that you made them to replace | God. Yet when they seem to speak to you, remember that nothing can |
| Tx:9.81 | when they seem to speak to you, remember that nothing can replace | God, and whatever replacements you have attempted are nothing. |
| Tx:9.82 | of nothing. And in that awareness you are healed. You will hear the | god you listen to. You made the god of sickness, and by making him, |
| Tx:9.82 | you are healed. You will hear the god you listen to. You made the | god of sickness, and by making him, you made yourself able to hear |
| Tx:9.82 | instant you signify your willingness to accept only the eternal. If | God has but one Son, there is but one God. You share reality with |
| Tx:9.82 | to accept only the eternal. If God has but one Son, there is but one | God. You share reality with Him, because reality is not divided. To |
| Tx:9.84 | Only at the altar of | God will you find peace. And this altar is in you, because God put it |
| Tx:9.84 | altar of God will you find peace. And this altar is in you, because | God put it there. His Voice still calls you to return, and He will be |
| Tx:9.84 | heard when you place no other gods before Him. You can give up the | god of sickness for your brothers; in fact, you would have to do so |
| Tx:9.84 | as God's replacement. He is the belief that you can choose which | god is real. Although it is perfectly clear that this has nothing to |
| Tx:9.85 | cannot be reconciled. Sickness and perfection are irreconcilable. If | God created you perfect, you are perfect. If you believe you can be |
| Tx:9.85 | you believe you can be sick, you have placed other gods before Him. | God is not at war with the god of sickness you made, but you are. He |
| Tx:9.85 | you have placed other gods before Him. God is not at war with the | god of sickness you made, but you are. He is the symbol of willing |
| Tx:9.85 | sickness you made, but you are. He is the symbol of willing against | God, and you are afraid of him, because he cannot be reconciled with |
| Tx:9.88 | their laws cannot be understood together. The laws of | God work only for your good, and there are no other laws beside His. |
| Tx:9.88 | His. Everything else is merely lawless and therefore chaotic. Yet | God Himself has protected everything He created by His laws. |
| Tx:9.88 | lawful, and the chaotic is without meaning because it is without | God. You have given your peace to the gods you made, but they are not |
| Tx:9.89 | not free to give up freedom, but only to deny it. You cannot do what | God did not intend, because what He did not intend does not happen. |
| Tx:9.89 | it of them. All this has never been. Nothing but the laws of | God has ever operated, and nothing except His Will will ever be. You |
| Tx:9.90 | When you have experienced the protection of | God, the making of idols becomes inconceivable. There are no strange |
| Tx:9.90 | becomes inconceivable. There are no strange images in the Mind of | God, and what is not in His Mind cannot be in yours because you are |
| Tx:9.90 | and your reality affect truth at all. Peace is yours because | God created you. And He created nothing else. |
| Tx:9.91 | The miracle is the act of a Son of | God who has laid aside all false gods and who calls on his brothers |
| Tx:9.91 | power of one mind can shine into another, because all the lamps of | God were lit by the same spark. It is everywhere, and it is eternal. |
| Tx:9.92 | In many only the spark remains, for the Great Rays are obscured. Yet | God has kept the spark alive so that the rays can never be completely |
| Tx:9.92 | it is the remaining call of creation. Put all your faith in it, and | God Himself will answer you. |
| Tx:9.93 | The rituals of the | god of sickness are strange and very demanding. Joy is never |
| Tx:9.93 | sign of allegiance to him. Depression means that you have foresworn | God. Men are afraid of blasphemy, but they do not know what it means. |
| Tx:9.93 | but they do not know what it means. They do not realize that to deny | God is to deny their own identity, and in this sense the wages of sin |
| Tx:9.94 | Do not forget, however, that to deny | God will inevitably result in projection, and you will believe that |
| Tx:9.94 | and whenever you see your brothers without it, you are denying | God. |
| Tx:9.95 | Allegiance to the denial of | God is the ego's religion. The god of sickness obviously demands the |
| Tx:9.95 | Allegiance to the denial of God is the ego's religion. The | god of sickness obviously demands the denial of health, because |
| Tx:9.95 | know yourself in order to be sick. This is the offering which your | god demands because, having made him out of your insanity, he is an |
| Tx:9.95 | seem like many different things he is but one idea—the denial of | God. |
| Tx:9.96 | Son think he was fatherless, and out of his depression, he made the | god of depression. This was his alternative to joy, because he would |
| Tx:9.98 | Son of | God, you have not sinned, but you have been much mistaken. Yet this |
| Tx:9.98 | but you have been much mistaken. Yet this can be corrected, and | God will help you, knowing that you could not sin against Him. You |
| Tx:9.99 | you, and you will learn of Him if you hear aright. The love of | God is in everything He created, for His Son is everywhere. Look with |
| Tx:9.99 | for His Son is everywhere. Look with peace upon your brothers, and | God will come rushing into your heart in gratitude for your gift to |
| Tx:9.100 | Do not look to the | god of sickness for healing but only to the God of love, for healing |
| Tx:9.100 | Do not look to the god of sickness for healing but only to the | God of love, for healing is the acknowledgment of Him. When you |
| Tx:9.100 | this is blasphemy, for it means that you are looking without love on | God and His creation, from which He cannot be separated. Only the |
| Tx:9.100 | Only the eternal can be loved, for love does not die. What is of | God is His forever, and you are of God. Would He allow Himself to |
| Tx:9.100 | for love does not die. What is of God is His forever, and you are of | God. Would He allow Himself to suffer? And would He offer His Son |
| Tx:9.101 | If you will accept yourself as | God created you, you will be incapable of suffering. Yet to do this, |
| Tx:9.102 | You do not realize how much you have denied yourself, and how much | God in His love would not have it so. Yet He would not interfere with |
| Tx:9.102 | were not free. To interfere with you would be to attack Himself, and | God is not insane. When you denied Him, you were insane. Would you |
| Tx:9.102 | denied Him, you were insane. Would you have Him share your insanity? | God will never cease to love His Son, and His Son will never cease to |
| Tx:9.102 | the condition of His Son's creation, fixed forever in the Mind of | God. To know that is sanity. To deny it is insanity. God gave Himself |
| Tx:9.102 | in the Mind of God. To know that is sanity. To deny it is insanity. | God gave Himself to you in your creation, and His gifts are eternal. |
| Tx:9.103 | was created for you for the misery you have made for yourselves. | God has given you the means for undoing what you have made. Listen, |
| Tx:9.104 | If | God knows His Children as wholly sinless, it is blasphemous to |
| Tx:9.104 | as wholly sinless, it is blasphemous to perceive them as guilty. If | God knows His Children as wholly without pain, it is blasphemous to |
| Tx:9.104 | without pain, it is blasphemous to perceive suffering anywhere. If | God knows His Children to be wholly joyous, it is blasphemous to feel |
| Tx:9.104 | blasphemy may take are refusals to accept creation as it is. If | God created His Son perfect, that is how you must learn to see him to |
| Tx:9.105 | Do not perceive anything | God did not create, or you are denying Him. His is the only |
| Tx:9.105 | you believe that the sick images you perceive are the Sons of | God. |
| Tx:9.106 | Only if you accept the Fatherhood of | God will you have anything, because His fatherhood gave you |
| Tx:9.106 | to you to be desirable, the concept of choice, which is not of | God, will remain with you. While this is not true in eternity, it is |
| Tx:10.1 | Either | God or the ego is insane. If you will examine the evidence on both |
| Tx:10.1 | both sides fairly, you will realize that this must be true. Neither | God nor the ego proposes a partial thought system. Each is internally |
| Tx:10.3 | You have made by projection, but | God has created by extension. The cornerstone of God's creation is |
| Tx:10.4 | My brother, you are part of | God and part of me. When you have at last looked at the ego's |
| Tx:10.5 | For in this lies the beginning of knowledge, the foundation on which | God will help you build again the thought system which you share with |
| Tx:10.5 | reality, you restore it to yourself. For you dwell in the Mind of | God with your brother, for God Himself did not will to be alone. |
| Tx:10.5 | to yourself. For you dwell in the Mind of God with your brother, for | God Himself did not will to be alone. |
| Tx:10.6 | limits must be everywhere. There are no beginnings and no endings in | God, Whose universe is Himself. Can you exclude yourself from the |
| Tx:10.6 | is Himself. Can you exclude yourself from the universe or from | God, Who is the universe? I and my Father are one with you, for you |
| Tx:10.6 | with you, for you are part of us. Do you really believe that part of | God can be missing or lost to Him? |
| Tx:10.7 | If you were not part of | God, His Will would not be unified. Is this conceivable? Can part of |
| Tx:10.8 | The laws of the universe do not permit contradiction. What holds for | God holds for you. If you believe you are absent from God, you will |
| Tx:10.8 | What holds for God holds for you. If you believe you are absent from | God, you will believe that He is absent from you. |
| Tx:10.9 | Infinity is meaningless without you, and you are meaningless without | God. There is no end to God and His Son, for we are the universe. God |
| Tx:10.9 | without you, and you are meaningless without God. There is no end to | God and His Son, for we are the universe. God is not incomplete, and |
| Tx:10.9 | God. There is no end to God and His Son, for we are the universe. | God is not incomplete, and He is not childless. Because He did not |
| Tx:10.9 | to see. Look upon the glory of His creation, and you will learn what | God has kept for you. |
| Tx:10.10 | God has given you a place in His Mind which is yours forever. Yet you | |
| Tx:10.10 | was given you. Could you be alone there if it was given you because | God did not will to be alone? God's Mind cannot be lessened. It can |
| Tx:10.11 | Could any part of | God be without His love and could any part of His love be contained? |
| Tx:10.11 | God be without His love and could any part of His love be contained? | God is your heritage because His one gift is Himself. How can you |
| Tx:10.11 | to give as He gives. Your fatherhood and your Father are one. | God willed to create, and your will is His. It follows, then, that |
| Tx:10.13 | interpretation, it is possible for God's Will and yours to conflict. | God then may seem to demand of you what you do not want to give and |
| Tx:10.13 | you do not want to give and thus deprive you of what you want. Would | God, who wants only your will, be capable of this? Your will is His |
| Tx:10.15 | the Holy Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is the Voice for | God, but never forget that God did not will to be alone. He shares |
| Tx:10.15 | He speaks for you. He is the Voice for God, but never forget that | God did not will to be alone. He shares His Will with you; He does |
| Tx:10.16 | from this, and every healing thought brings it closer. The Son of | God has both Father and Son because he is both Father and Son. To |
| Tx:10.16 | Him, you know there is but one will. Yet when you attack any part of | God and His Kingdom, your understanding is not perfect, and what you |
| Tx:10.17 | miracle which you accomplish speaks to you of the Fatherhood of | God. Every healing thought which you accept, either from your brother |
| Tx:10.19 | lay His own complete will and make yours whole. What can the Son of | God not accomplish with the Fatherhood of God in him? And yet the |
| Tx:10.19 | whole. What can the Son of God not accomplish with the Fatherhood of | God in him? And yet the invitation must come from you, for you have |
| Tx:10.20 | You can safely trust His patience, for He cannot leave a part of | God. Yet you need far more than patience. |
| Tx:10.21 | Him is to be like Him, and He has given Himself to you. You who have | God must be as God, for His function became yours with His gift. |
| Tx:10.21 | Him, and He has given Himself to you. You who have God must be as | God, for His function became yours with His gift. Invite this |
| Tx:10.21 | minds, and let nothing that will obscure it enter. The Guest whom | God sent you will teach you how to do this if you but recognize the |
| Tx:10.22 | Would you be hostage to the ego or host to | God? You will accept only whom you invite. You are free to determine |
| Tx:10.22 | do not be satisfied with imaginary comforters, for the Comforter of | God is in you. |
| Tx:10.23 | of Him, for He knows no attack and His peace surrounds you silently. | God is very quiet, for there is no conflict in Him. Conflict is the |
| Tx:10.23 | it does not see whom it attacks. Yet it always attacks the Son of | God, and the Son of God is you. |
| Tx:10.23 | it attacks. Yet it always attacks the Son of God, and the Son of | God is you. |
| Tx:10.24 | own. The Kingdom is his, and yet he wanders homelessly. At home in | God, he is lonely, and amid all his brothers, he is friendless. Would |
| Tx:10.24 | he is lonely, and amid all his brothers, he is friendless. Would | God let this be real if He did not will to be alone Himself? And if |
| Tx:10.24 | you because it is not true of Him. Oh, my children, if you knew what | God wills for you, your joy would be complete! And what He wills has |
| Tx:10.25 | with joy that it will leap into Heaven and into the Presence of | God. I cannot tell you what this will be like, for your hearts are |
| Tx:10.25 | are not ready. Yet I can tell you and remind you often that what | God wills for Himself He wills for you, and what He wills for you is |
| Tx:10.26 | hard, but it is very different. Yours is the way of pain, of which | God knows nothing. That way is hard indeed and very lonely. Fear and |
| Tx:10.26 | the dark companions, for they are not fit companions for the Son of | God, who was created of light and in light. The Great Light always |
| Tx:10.27 | God hides nothing from His Son, even though His Son would hide | |
| Tx:10.27 | from His Son, even though His Son would hide himself. Yet the Son of | God cannot hide his glory, for God wills him to be glorious and gave |
| Tx:10.27 | would hide himself. Yet the Son of God cannot hide his glory, for | God wills him to be glorious and gave him the light that shines in |
| Tx:10.27 | him the light that shines in him. You will never lose your way, for | God leads you. When you wander, you but undertake a journey which is |
| Tx:10.29 | temple and find it waiting for you. But be holy in the Presence of | God, or you will not know that you are there. For what is unlike God |
| Tx:10.29 | of God, or you will not know that you are there. For what is unlike | God cannot enter His Mind because it was not His Thought and |
| Tx:10.30 | in the temple with Him because it is your will not to be alone. | God blessed His Son forever. If you will bless him in time, you will |
| Tx:10.30 | him in time, you will be in eternity. Time cannot separate you from | God if you use it on behalf of the eternal. |
| Tx:10.31 | Soul, all your understanding is lost because you are looking on what | God created as yourself without love. And since what He created is |
| Tx:10.32 | Could you try to make | God homeless and know that you are at home? Can the Son deny the |
| Tx:10.32 | power of your will cannot be lessened without the intervention of | God against it, and any limitation on your power is not the Will of |
| Tx:10.32 | God against it, and any limitation on your power is not the Will of | God. Therefore, look only to the power that God gave to save you, |
| Tx:10.32 | power is not the Will of God. Therefore, look only to the power that | God gave to save you, remembering that it is yours because it is His, |
| Tx:10.33 | you share, and your own Soul must be unknown to you. Every altar to | God is part of your Soul because the light He created is one with |
| Tx:10.33 | As you bring him back, so will your mind return. That is the law of | God for the protection of the wholeness of His Son. |
| Tx:10.36 | and it is impossible for you to be unable to enter the place where | God would have you be. But love yourself with the love of Christ, for |
| Tx:10.36 | for you, for while I live it cannot be shut, and I live forever. | God is my life and yours, and nothing is denied by God to His Son. |
| Tx:10.36 | I live forever. God is my life and yours, and nothing is denied by | God to His Son. |
| Tx:10.37 | At God's altar Christ waits for the restoration of Himself in you. | God knows His Son as wholly blameless as Himself, and He is |
| Tx:10.37 | as yourself and of His wholeness as yours. For Christ is the Son of | God who lives in his Creator and shines with His glory. Christ is the |
| Tx:10.37 | His glory. Christ is the extension of the love and the loveliness of | God, as perfect as his Creator and at peace with Him. |
| Tx:10.38 | Blessed is the Son of | God, whose radiance is of his Father and whose glory he wills to |
| Tx:10.38 | will not know the Father or the Son. Peace be unto you who rest in | God and in whom the whole Sonship rests. |
| Tx:10.42 | All power is of | God. What is not of Him has no power to do anything. |
| Tx:10.44 | accord with your true nature. We once said that to will contrary to | God is wishful thinking and not real willing. His Will is one because |
| Tx:10.44 | experience, then, is between the ego's idle wishes and the Will of | God, which you share. Can this be a real conflict? |
| Tx:10.45 | Your whole creative function lies in your complete dependence on | God, Whose function He shares with you. By His Willingness to share |
| Tx:10.45 | in ego autonomy is costing you the knowledge of your dependence on | God in which your freedom lies. The ego sees all dependency as |
| Tx:10.45 | all dependency as threatening and has twisted even your longing for | God into a means of establishing itself. But do not be deceived by |
| Tx:10.49 | Your recognition that whatever seems to separate you from | God is only fear, regardless of the form it takes and quite apart |
| Tx:10.51 | God is as dependent on you as you are on Him because His autonomy | |
| Tx:10.52 | sane know that only attack could produce fear from which the love of | God completely protects them. |
| Tx:10.57 | not exist, yet where the Son is, the Father must be. Accept what | God does not deny, and He will demonstrate its truth. The witnesses |
| Tx:10.57 | does not deny, and He will demonstrate its truth. The witnesses for | God stand in His light and behold what He created. Their silence is |
| Tx:10.61 | of God's Son. For until Christ comes into His own, the Son of | God will see himself as fatherless. |
| Tx:10.62 | your resurrection and your life. You live in me because you live in | God. And everyone lives in you, as you live in everyone. Can you, |
| Tx:10.62 | yourself? And can you perceive it in yourself and not perceive it in | God? Believe in the resurrection because it has been accomplished, |
| Tx:10.62 | as true now as it will ever be, for the resurrection is the Will of | God, which knows no time and no exceptions. But make no exceptions |
| Tx:10.63 | the power of the devotion of God's Son nor the power of the | god he worships over him. For he places himself at the altar of his |
| Tx:10.63 | god he worships over him. For he places himself at the altar of his | god, whether it be the god he made or the God who created him. That |
| Tx:10.63 | For he places himself at the altar of his god, whether it be the | god he made or the God who created him. That is why his slavery is as |
| Tx:10.63 | at the altar of his god, whether it be the god he made or the | God who created him. That is why his slavery is as complete as his |
| Tx:10.63 | his slavery is as complete as his freedom, for he will obey only the | god he accepts. The god of the crucifixion demands that he crucify, |
| Tx:10.63 | as his freedom, for he will obey only the god he accepts. The | god of the crucifixion demands that he crucify, and his worshipers |
| Tx:10.63 | name they crucify themselves, believing that the power of the Son of | God is born of sacrifice and pain. The God of the resurrection |
| Tx:10.63 | that the power of the Son of God is born of sacrifice and pain. The | God of the resurrection demands nothing, for He does not will to take |
| Tx:10.64 | be thrust upon you, but it can be offered you through the grace of | God. And you can accept it by His grace, for God is gracious to His |
| Tx:10.64 | through the grace of God. And you can accept it by His grace, for | God is gracious to His Son, accepting him without question as His |
| Tx:10.64 | them in their resurrection, for otherwise you will not awake in | God, safely surrounded by what is yours forever. |
| Tx:10.65 | of God's Son and taken the last thorn from his forehead. The love of | God surrounds His Son, whom the god of the crucifixion condemns. |
| Tx:10.65 | thorn from his forehead. The love of God surrounds His Son, whom the | god of the crucifixion condemns. Teach not that I died in vain. Teach |
| Tx:10.65 | work of the redemption, in which everyone has a part of equal value. | God does not judge His blameless Son. Having given Himself to him, |
| Tx:10.66 | your own head. Yet you cannot crucify God's Son, for the Will of | God cannot die. His Son has been redeemed from his own crucifixion, |
| Tx:10.66 | from his own crucifixion, and you cannot assign to death whom | God has given eternal life. The dream of crucifixion still lies heavy |
| Tx:10.66 | what you see in dreams is not reality. While you perceive the Son of | God as crucified, you are asleep. And as long as you believe that you |
| Tx:10.68 | equal value, and their equality is their oneness. The whole power of | God is in every part of Him, and nothing contradictory to His Will is |
| Tx:10.68 | great or small. What does not exist has no size and no measure. To | God all things are possible. And to Christ it is given to be like the |
| Tx:10.69 | have been created by the Father, for the world is not as you see it. | God created only the eternal, and everything you see is perishable. |
| Tx:10.70 | Every loving thought that the Son of | God ever had is eternal. Those which his mind perceived in this world |
| Tx:10.72 | You do not know the difference between what you have made and what | God created, and so you do not know the difference between what you |
| Tx:10.73 | real world is to believe that you can know yourself. You can know | God because it is His Will to be known. The real world is all that |
| Tx:10.77 | No one can withhold truth except from himself. Yet | God will not refuse the answer He gave you. Ask, then, for what is |
| Tx:10.77 | and do not defend yourself against truth. You made the problem which | God has answered. Ask yourselves, therefore, but one simple question— |
| Tx:10.80 | of you. Yet only by asking will you learn that nothing that is of | God demands anything of you. God gives; He does not take. |
| Tx:10.80 | will you learn that nothing that is of God demands anything of you. | God gives; He does not take. |
| Tx:10.81 | in return. For what is yours is everything, and you share it with | God. This is its reality. Would the Holy Spirit, Who wills only to |
| Tx:10.82 | of the Holy Spirit is to ask for deprivation. Little Children of | God, you do not understand your Father. You believe in a world that |
| Tx:10.82 | Do not deny it to yourself, for it can only free you. Nothing of | God will enslave His Son, whom He created free and whose freedom is |
| Tx:10.83 | Blessed are you who will ask the truth of | God without fear, for only thus can you learn that His answer is the |
| Tx:10.83 | learn that His answer is the release from fear. Beautiful Child of | God, you are asking only for what I promised you. Do you believe I |
| Tx:10.83 | have nothing which they do not share. Ask for truth of any Son of | God, and you have asked it of me. No one of us but has the answer in |
| Tx:10.84 | Christ, for Christ is his healing and yours. Christ is the Son of | God, who is in no way separate from His Father, whose every thought |
| Tx:10.85 | are recognized, and because no one is without your help, the Help of | God goes with you everywhere. As you become willing to accept this |
| Tx:10.87 | you, you are offended in yourself and are condemning God's Son, whom | God condemneth not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all offense of God's |
| Tx:10.87 | and use it for all He sends you, for He wills to heal the Son of | God in whom He is not deceived. |
| Tx:10.90 | your fears for truth if the exchange is yours for the asking? For if | God is not deceived in you, you can be deceived only in yourself. Yet |
| Tx:10.90 | of yourself of the Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as part of | God, deceit in you is impossible. When you perceive yourself without |
| Tx:11.7 | for you cannot help yourselves. But hear his call for the help of | God, and you will recognize your own need for the Father. |
| Tx:11.8 | sake of your need, then, hear every call for help as what it is, so | God can answer you. |
| Tx:11.15 | the light, it has none, for it has power only because the Son of | God gave power to it. He must himself withdraw that power, |
| Tx:11.15 | must himself withdraw that power, remembering that all power is of | God. You can remember this for all the Sonship. Do not allow your |
| Tx:11.15 | for his forgetfulness is yours. But your remembering is his, for | God cannot be remembered alone. This is what you have forgotten. To |
| Tx:11.15 | your brother as the healing of yourself is thus the way to remember | God. For you forgot your brothers with Him, and God's answer to your |
| Tx:11.19 | You still want what | God wills, and no nightmare can defeat a Child of God in his purpose. |
| Tx:11.19 | You still want what God wills, and no nightmare can defeat a Child of | God in his purpose. For your purpose was given you by God, and you |
| Tx:11.19 | a Child of God in his purpose. For your purpose was given you by | God, and you must accomplish it because it is His Will. Awake and |
| Tx:11.23 | how to use what He knows. Whatever is revealed to Him that is not of | God is gone. Yet you must reveal it to yourself in perfect |
| Tx:11.27 | asking for salvation, as you are. Poverty is of the ego and never of | God. No “outrageous” request can be made of one who recognizes what |
| Tx:11.32 | We once said that | God so loved the world that He gave it to His only-begotten Son. God |
| Tx:11.32 | God so loved the world that He gave it to His only-begotten Son. | God does love the real world, and those who perceive its reality |
| Tx:11.32 | For death is not of the real world, in which everything is eternal. | God gave you the real world in exchange for the one you made out of |
| Tx:11.32 | death. For if you could really separate yourselves from the Mind of | God, you would die, and the world you perceive is a world of |
| Tx:11.34 | must end. For in this same place also lies salvation. The altar of | God where Christ abideth is there. |
| Tx:11.35 | and there you will learn to see truly. From this place, where | God and His Son dwell in peace and where you are welcome, you will |
| Tx:11.35 | the Holy Spirit to project the real world to you from the altar of | God. |
| Tx:11.41 | nor sold. There can be no disinherited parts of the Sonship, for | God is whole, and all His extensions are like Him. |
| Tx:11.52 | properly understood, is limitless because it will lead you to | God. You can teach the way to Him and learn it if you follow the |
| Tx:11.54 | Him of His Son, and He never ceases to remind His Son of the Father. | God is in your memory because of Him. You chose to forget your |
| Tx:11.56 | would awaken them from the sleep of forgetting to the remembering of | God. Christ's eyes are open, and He will look upon whatever you see |
| Tx:11.57 | The Holy Spirit keeps the vision of Christ for every Son of | God who sleeps. In His sight the Son of God is perfect, and He longs |
| Tx:11.57 | of Christ for every Son of God who sleeps. In His sight the Son of | God is perfect, and He longs to share His vision with you. He will |
| Tx:11.57 | share His vision with you. He will show you the real world because | God gave you Heaven. Through Him your Father calls His Son to |
| Tx:11.59 | Every Child of | God is one in Christ, for his Being is in Christ as Christ's is in |
| Tx:11.59 | God is one in Christ, for his Being is in Christ as Christ's is in | God. Christ's love for you is His love for His Father, which He knows |
| Tx:11.59 | become so similar that they share the unification of the laws of | God. |
| Tx:11.60 | of the separation is the reinstatement of knowledge. At the altar of | God, the holy perception of God's Son becomes so enlightened that |
| Tx:11.60 | in the Mind of the Father and becomes one with it. Very gently does | God shine upon Himself, loving the extension of Himself which is His |
| Tx:11.60 | His Son. The world has no purpose as it blends into the purpose of | God. For the real world has slipped quietly into Heaven, where |
| Tx:11.60 | been. There the Redeemer and the redeemed join in perfect love of | God and of each other. Heaven is your home, and being in God, it must |
| Tx:11.60 | love of God and of each other. Heaven is your home, and being in | God, it must also be in you. |
| Tx:11.61 | the Holy Spirit sends you for your blessing. In every Child of | God His blessing lies, and in your blessing of the Children of God is |
| Tx:11.61 | of God His blessing lies, and in your blessing of the Children of | God is His blessing to you. |
| Tx:11.64 | in Heaven is creation, so your function on earth is healing. | God shares His function with you in Heaven, and the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:11.71 | of your mind is the loveliest of God's creations. Coming only from | God, its power and grandeur could only bring you peace if you really |
| Tx:11.72 | will see me as you look within, and we will look upon the world as | God created it together. Through the eyes of Christ, only the real |
| Tx:11.74 | it fully believes that you are a criminal, as deserving of death as | God knows you are deserving of life. The death penalty never leaves |
| Tx:11.75 | The ego is not a traitor to | God to Whom treachery is impossible, but it is a traitor to you who |
| Tx:11.75 | voice of the ego, which tells you that you have been treacherous to | God and therefore deserve death. You will think that death comes from |
| Tx:11.75 | and therefore deserve death. You will think that death comes from | God and not from the ego because, by confusing yourself with the ego, |
| Tx:11.75 | the ego, you believe that you want death. And from what you want, | God does not save you. |
| Tx:11.77 | Do you really believe that you can kill the Son of | God? The Father has hidden His Son safely within Himself and kept him |
| Tx:11.80 | Father's love you can never forget Him, for no one can forget what | God Himself placed in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot |
| Tx:11.80 | is the only truth, and what you have not heard is the only answer. | God would reunite you with yourself and did not abandon you in your |
| Tx:11.81 | but to ask for this memory, and you will remember. Yet the memory of | God cannot shine in a mind which has made it invisible and wants to |
| Tx:11.81 | has made it invisible and wants to keep it so. For the memory of | God can dawn only in a mind that wills to remember and that has |
| Tx:11.81 | upon what you have made of it and rejoice that it is not so. Son of | God, be not content with nothing! What is not real cannot be seen and |
| Tx:11.81 | with nothing! What is not real cannot be seen and has no value. | God could not offer His Son what has no value, nor could His Son |
| Tx:11.83 | God's Being with Him could never be content without reality. What | God did not give you has no power over you, and the attraction of |
| Tx:11.84 | The real world was given you by | God in loving exchange for the world you made and which you see. But |
| Tx:11.86 | ground and seem to be no more. Not one of them but has thought that | God is cruel. |
| Tx:11.87 | If this were the real world, | God would be cruel. For no father could subject his children to this |
| Tx:11.90 | In this strange world which you have made, the Son of | God has sinned. How could you see him, then? By making him invisible, |
| Tx:11.91 | behind you and will disappear. As long as you believe the Son of | God is guilty, you will walk along this carpet, believing that it |
| Tx:11.92 | The journey which the Son of | God has set himself is foolish indeed, but the journey on which his |
| Tx:11.92 | is with you. He has always undone everything unworthy of the Son of | God, for such was His mission, given Him by God. And what God gives |
| Tx:11.92 | unworthy of the Son of God, for such was His mission, given Him by | God. And what God gives has always been. |
| Tx:11.92 | the Son of God, for such was His mission, given Him by God. And what | God gives has always been. |
| Tx:11.93 | You will see me as you learn the Son of | God is guiltless. He has always sought his guiltlessness, and he has |
| Tx:11.93 | only a matter of time, and time is but an illusion. For the Son of | God is guiltless now, and the brightness of his purity shines |
| Tx:11.95 | realize that there is no journey, but only an awakening. The Son of | God, who sleepeth not, has kept faith with his Father for you. There |
| Tx:11.95 | There is no road to travel on and no time to travel through. For | God waits not for His Son in time, being forever unwilling to be |
| Tx:11.97 | of need for expiation. Accepting the guiltlessness of the Son of | God as yours is therefore God's way of reminding you of His Son and |
| Tx:11.97 | God's way of reminding you of His Son and what he is in truth. For | God has never condemned His Son, and being guiltless, he is eternal. |
| Tx:11.99 | that it has never been. As He looks upon the guiltless Son of | God, he knows this is true. And being true for you, you cannot attack |
| Tx:12.1 | it intolerable, since guilt stands in the way of your remembering | God, Whose pull is so strong that you cannot resist it. On this |
| Tx:12.2 | have failed. Yet you have no idea that you are failing the Son of | God by seeing him as guilty. Believing you are no longer you, you do |
| Tx:12.3 | God's Son can ultimately satisfy it. It does not know who the Son of | God is because it is blind. Yet let it perceive guiltlessness |
| Tx:12.6 | him, and the reason it gave was that guiltlessness is blasphemous to | God. To the ego the ego is god, and guiltlessness must be interpreted |
| Tx:12.6 | was that guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the ego the ego is | god, and guiltlessness must be interpreted as the final guilt which |
| Tx:12.9 | will be yours. For the redeemed son of man is the guiltless Son of | God, and to recognize him is your redemption. |
| Tx:12.11 | is of redemption. Under the ego's dark foundation is the memory of | God, and it is of this that you are really afraid. For this memory |
| Tx:12.12 | stronger than it will ever be, is your intense and burning love of | God, and His for you. This is what you really want to hide. |
| Tx:12.13 | then, seems to be attacking your fortress, for you would shut out | God, and He does not will to be excluded. |
| Tx:12.14 | and that attack is grandeur. You think you have made a world which | God would destroy; and by loving Him, which you do, you would throw |
| Tx:12.15 | did not. You would rather be slaves of the crucifixion than Sons of | God in redemption. For your individual death is more valued than your |
| Tx:12.15 | is given you is not so dear as what you made. You are more afraid of | God than of the ego, and love cannot enter where it is not welcome. |
| Tx:12.17 | and cleanse it of its littleness, restoring it to the magnitude of | God. |
| Tx:12.20 | minds. You were at peace until you asked for special favor. And | God did not give it, for the request was alien to Him, and you could |
| Tx:12.21 | seek a place of darkness where it can believe it is where it is not. | God did not allow this to happen. Yet you demanded that it happen and |
| Tx:12.22 | To “single out” is to “make alone” and thus make lonely. | God did not do this to you. Could He set you apart, knowing that your |
| Tx:12.38 | and you see only your own split mind everywhere you look. | God calls you and you do not hear, for you are preoccupied with your |
| Tx:12.40 | perceiving them as witnesses to your reality, which you share with | God. I am with them as I am with you, and we will draw them from |
| Tx:12.40 | gladness, and gladness is what we should offer Him. For every Son of | God is given you to whom God gave Himself. And it is God to Whom you |
| Tx:12.40 | what we should offer Him. For every Son of God is given you to whom | God gave Himself. And it is God to Whom you must offer them to |
| Tx:12.40 | every Son of God is given you to whom God gave Himself. And it is | God to Whom you must offer them to recognize His gift to you. |
| Tx:12.64 | give this sad world over and exchange your errors for the peace of | God is but your will. And Christ will always offer you the Will of |
| Tx:12.64 | God is but your will. And Christ will always offer you the Will of | God in recognition that you share it with Him. |
| Tx:12.65 | and nothing else comes nigh unto him. He is as safe from pain as | God Himself, Who watches over him in everything. The world about him |
| Tx:12.65 | over him in everything. The world about him shines with love because | God placed him in Himself where pain is not and love surrounds him |
| Tx:12.66 | The peace of | God passeth your understanding only in the past. Yet here it is, and |
| Tx:12.66 | only in the past. Yet here it is, and you can understand it now. | God loves His Son forever, and His Son returns his Father's love |
| Tx:12.66 | it will fade. But this one thing is always yours, being the gift of | God unto His Son. Your one reality was given you, and by it God |
| Tx:12.66 | gift of God unto His Son. Your one reality was given you, and by it | God created you as one with Him. |
| Tx:12.74 | be not restless, for you undertake a quiet journey to the peace of | God, where He would have you be in quietness. |
| Tx:12.75 | back. We walk together on the way to quietness that is the gift of | God. Hold me dear, for what except your brothers can you need? We |
| Tx:12.76 | you that you have taught how to remember you. Thus does the Son of | God give thanks unto his Father for his purity. |
| Tx:13.2 | is separate. You are an aspect of knowledge, being in the Mind of | God, Who knows you. All knowledge must be yours, for in you is all |
| Tx:13.3 | making transfer to it possible. Yet the last step must be taken by | God because the last step in your redemption, which seems to be in |
| Tx:13.3 | redemption, which seems to be in the future, was accomplished by | God in your creation. The separation has not interrupted it. Creation |
| Tx:13.3 | of reality can be seen in everything and everywhere. Yet only | God can gather them together by crowning them as one with the final |
| Tx:13.4 | in the mind of both and knowing that mind is one. He is a Thought of | God, and God has given Him to you because He has no Thoughts He does |
| Tx:13.4 | of both and knowing that mind is one. He is a Thought of God, and | God has given Him to you because He has no Thoughts He does not |
| Tx:13.5 | that it is one forever. Every miracle you offer to the Son of | God is but the true perception of one aspect of the whole. Though |
| Tx:13.6 | aspect of reality you see blends quietly into the One Reality of | God. The only miracle that ever was is God's most holy Son, created |
| Tx:13.7 | gift to everyone and everywhere, for miracles offered the Son of | God through the Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.8 | suddenly time will be over, and we will all unite in the eternity of | God the Father. The holy light you saw outside yourself in every |
| Tx:13.9 | fatherhood in Heaven. You are the witnesses to the Fatherhood of | God, and He has given you the power to create the witnesses to |
| Tx:13.9 | deny the witnesses to] your fatherhood in Heaven. The miracle which | God created is perfect, as are the miracles which you created in His |
| Tx:13.10 | Yet in this world, your perfection is unwitnessed. | God knows it, but you do not, and so you do not share His witness to |
| Tx:13.10 | it. Nor do you witness unto Him, for reality is witnessed to as one. | God waits your witness to His Son and to Himself. The miracles you do |
| Tx:13.10 | to what you do not know, and as they reach the gates of Heaven, | God will open them. For never would He leave His own beloved Son |
| Tx:13.11 | so they must condemn. Between the future and the past, the laws of | God must intervene if you would free yourselves. Atonement stands |
| Tx:13.14 | become as true for you as innocence. You do not believe the Son of | God is guiltless because you see the past and see him not. When you |
| Tx:13.15 | that he is right in his delusion? The idea that the guiltless Son of | God can attack himself and make himself guilty is insane. In any |
| Tx:13.16 | unto yourself. In every condemnation that you offer the Son of | God lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you would have the Holy |
| Tx:13.16 | for you. Remember always that it is impossible to condemn the Son of | God in part. Those whom you see as guilty become the witnesses to |
| Tx:13.19 | difference, for He knows not of differences. Can you see guilt where | God knows there is perfect innocence? You can deny His knowledge, but |
| Tx:13.26 | to guilt, and see no reason for it. The Holy Spirit does what | God would have Him do and has always done so. He has seen separation, |
| Tx:13.27 | teach, to make what will be now. As yet it is not now. The Son of | God believes that he is lost in guilt, alone in a dark world where |
| Tx:13.28 | His Will is like His Father's, and He offers mercy to every Child of | God, as He would have you do. |
| Tx:13.29 | and see the light of love shining as steadily and as surely as | God Himself has always loved His Son. And as His son loves Him. There |
| Tx:13.29 | were. Your guilt is without reason, because it is not in the Mind of | God where you are. And this is reason, which the Holy Spirit would |
| Tx:13.30 | all your relationships and making them unreal. You can love only as | God loves. Seek not to love unlike Him, for there is no love apart |
| Tx:13.30 | who condemns a brother can see himself as guiltless in the peace of | God. If he is guiltless and in peace and sees it not, he is |
| Tx:13.31 | Behold the Son of | God and look upon his purity and be still. In quiet look upon his |
| Tx:13.33 | centered on what I treasure. The difference is that I love only what | God loves with me, and because of this, I treasure you beyond the |
| Tx:13.33 | the value that you set on yourselves, even unto the worth that | God has placed upon you. I love all that He created, and all my faith |
| Tx:13.33 | let me offer to the Kingdom in honor of its wholeness, which is of | God. |
| Tx:13.34 | the gates of Heaven where we will surely enter in our blamelessness. | God loves you. Could I, then, lack faith in you and love Him |
| Tx:13.36 | God would not have His Son embattled, and so His Son's imagined | |
| Tx:13.36 | the hymn of freedom rising unto Heaven. Gladness and joy belong to | God for your release, because you made it not. Yet as you made not |
| Tx:13.37 | you value wholly, and so you do not value it at all. Value is where | God placed it, and the value of what God esteems cannot be judged, |
| Tx:13.37 | value it at all. Value is where God placed it, and the value of what | God esteems cannot be judged, for it has been established. It is |
| Tx:13.37 | value it partially is not to know its value. In Heaven is everything | God valued and nothing else. Heaven is perfectly unambiguous. |
| Tx:13.38 | will be fulfilled. How is this possible, when His mission is of | God? |
| Tx:13.39 | You whose minds are darkened by doubt and guilt, remember this: | God gave the Holy Spirit to you and gave Him the mission to remove |
| Tx:13.39 | It is impossible that this mission fail. Nothing can prevent what | God would have accomplished from accomplishment. Whatever your |
| Tx:13.40 | will fail in what your Father has given Him to do. The Will of | God can fail in nothing. |
| Tx:13.41 | Have faith in only this one thing, and it will be sufficient: | God wills you be in Heaven, and nothing can keep you from it or it |
| Tx:13.41 | nightmares all mean nothing. They will not prevail against the peace | God wills for you. The Holy Spirit will restore your sanity, because |
| Tx:13.41 | Spirit will restore your sanity, because insanity is not the Will of | God. If that suffices Him, it is enough for you. You will not keep |
| Tx:13.41 | If that suffices Him, it is enough for you. You will not keep what | God would have removed, because it breaks communication with you with |
| Tx:13.42 | The Communication Link which | God Himself placed within you, joining your minds with His, cannot be |
| Tx:13.42 | the deep peace in which the sweet and constant communication which | God would share with you is known. Yet His channels of reaching out |
| Tx:13.43 | God willed you Heaven and will always will you nothing else. The Holy | |
| Tx:13.43 | of His Will. There is no chance that Heaven will not be yours, for | God is sure, and what He wills is as sure as He is. You will learn |
| Tx:13.43 | what the Holy Spirit wills to teach you. Salvation is as sure as | God. His certainty suffices. Learn that even the darkest nightmare |
| Tx:13.43 | Son holds no power over him. He will learn the lesson of awaking. | God watches over him, and light surrounds him. |
| Tx:13.44 | Can God's Son lose himself in dreams when | God has placed within him the glad call to waken and be glad? He |
| Tx:13.44 | know that Heaven is yours to make it so. It is so. Yet the Will of | God must be accepted as your will to know it. |
| Tx:13.46 | Failure is of the ego, not of | God. From Him you cannot wander, and there is no possibility that the |
| Tx:13.50 | it has not touched, and your dream is sacred to you. That is why | God placed the Holy Spirit in you, where you placed the dream. |
| Tx:13.51 | all the power that he gives to them. The thoughts he shares with | God are beyond his belief, but those he made are his beliefs. And it |
| Tx:13.59 | Like you, the Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like | God, He knows it to be true. He brings the light of truth into the |
| Tx:13.63 | is impossible to deny the simple truth. For there is nothing else. | God is everywhere, and His Son is in Him with everything. Can he sing |
| Tx:13.66 | to yourself gently, but with the conviction born of the love of | God and of His Son, |
| Tx:13.70 | The joy of learning that darkness has no power over the Son of | God is the happy lesson the Holy Spirit teaches and would have you |
| Tx:13.71 | is also his. There is nothing to forgive. No one can hurt the Son of | God. His guilt is wholly without cause, and being without cause, |
| Tx:13.72 | God is the only Cause, and guilt is not of Him. Teach no one he has | |
| Tx:13.72 | has hurt you, for if you do, you teach yourself that what is not of | God has power over you. The causeless cannot be. Do not attest to it, |
| Tx:13.72 | only when you learn to deny the causeless and accept the Cause of | God as yours. The power that God has given to His Son is his, and |
| Tx:13.72 | the causeless and accept the Cause of God as yours. The power that | God has given to His Son is his, and nothing else can His Son see or |
| Tx:13.75 | will never ask what you have done to make you worthy of the gift of | God. Ask it not therefore of yourselves. Instead, accept His answer, |
| Tx:13.75 | accept His answer, for He knows that you are worthy of everything | God wills for you. Do not try to escape the gift of God which He so |
| Tx:13.75 | of everything God wills for you. Do not try to escape the gift of | God which He so freely and so gladly offers you. He offers you but |
| Tx:13.75 | which He so freely and so gladly offers you. He offers you but what | God gave Him for you. You need not decide whether or not you are |
| Tx:13.75 | for you. You need not decide whether or not you are deserving of it. | God knows you are. |
| Tx:13.76 | true. Peace abides in every mind that quietly accepts the plan which | God has set for his Atonement, relinquishing his own. You know not of |
| Tx:13.77 | The One Who knows the plan of | God which God would have you follow can teach you what it is. Only |
| Tx:13.77 | The One Who knows the plan of God which | God would have you follow can teach you what it is. Only His wisdom |
| Tx:13.77 | and against this strange distortion of the purity of the Son of | God, the Holy Spirit is your only friend. He is the strong protector |
| Tx:13.78 | and leads you gladly on it. With Him you will not fail to learn what | God wills for you is your will. Without His guidance, you will think |
| Tx:13.78 | that salvation lay in you alone. Salvation is of Him to Whom | God gave it for you. He has not forgotten it. Forget Him not, and He |
| Tx:13.78 | make every decision for you, for your salvation, and the peace of | God in you. |
| Tx:13.79 | teaches only that the “sin” of self-replacement on the throne of | God is not a source of guilt. What cannot happen can have no effects |
| Tx:13.79 | may be your choice, but not your reality. Never forget the love of | God, Who has remembered you. For it is quite impossible that He could |
| Tx:13.80 | for me,” and it is done. For His decisions are reflections of what | God knows about you, and in this light, error of any kind becomes |
| Tx:13.86 | acknowledged. Yet truth is offered first to be received, even as | God gave it first to His Son. The first in time means nothing, but |
| Tx:13.86 | Son. The first in time means nothing, but the First in eternity is | God the Father, Who is both First and One. Beyond the First, there is |
| Tx:13.87 | that thought it was. This state, and only this, must you attain with | God beside you. For until you do, you will still think that you are |
| Tx:13.89 | what must be done before that knowledge would be meaningful to you. | God breaks no barriers; neither did He make them. When you release |
| Tx:13.89 | neither did He make them. When you release them, they are gone. | God will not fail nor ever has in anything. |
| Tx:13.90 | Decide that | God is right and you are wrong about yourself. He created you out of |
| Tx:13.90 | darkness and deceit undone. Fail not yourself, but instead offer to | God and you His blameless Son. For this small gift of appreciation |
| Tx:13.90 | His blameless Son. For this small gift of appreciation for His Love, | God will Himself exchange your gift for His. |
| Tx:13.91 | what you should do? Leave all decisions to the One Who speaks for | God and for your function as He knows it. So will He teach you to |
| Tx:13.91 | awful burden you have laid upon yourself by loving not the Son of | God and trying to teach him guilt instead of love. Give up this |
| Tx:13.91 | and insane attempt, which cheats you of the joy of living with your | God and Father, and awaking gladly to His love and holiness, which |
| Tx:13.92 | When you have learned how to decide with | God, all decisions become as easy and as right as breathing. There is |
| Tx:14.1 | Unless you are guiltless, you cannot know | God, Whose Will is that you know Him. Therefore, you must be |
| Tx:14.1 | that knowledge is swept away from recognition in the very mind where | God Himself has placed it. If you would but listen and learn how |
| Tx:14.2 | but not without you. You who have thrown your selves away and valued | God so little, hear me speak for Him and for yourselves. You cannot |
| Tx:14.3 | to itself. Atonement teaches you the true condition of the Son of | God. It does not teach you what you are or what your Father is. The |
| Tx:14.4 | because each sees the other unlike the way he sees himself. | God can communicate only to the Holy Spirit in your mind because only |
| Tx:14.4 | your mind because only He shares the knowledge of what you are with | God. And only the Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He |
| Tx:14.4 | of what you are with God. And only the Holy Spirit can answer | God for you, for only He knows what God is. Everything else that you |
| Tx:14.4 | only the Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He knows what | God is. Everything else that you have placed within your mind cannot |
| Tx:14.4 | mind cannot exist, for what is not in communication with the Mind of | God has never been. Communication with God is life. Nothing without |
| Tx:14.4 | with the Mind of God has never been. Communication with | God is life. Nothing without it is at all. |
| Tx:14.5 | of your mind that has reality is the part which links you still with | God. Would you have all of it transformed into a radiant message of |
| Tx:14.5 | Love, to share with all the lonely ones who denied Him with you? | God makes this possible. Would you deny His yearning to be known? You |
| Tx:14.5 | here and everything of value there. Listen to the Holy Spirit and to | God through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is no guilt in you, |
| Tx:14.5 | through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is no guilt in you, for | God is blessed in His Son as the Son is blessed in Him. |
| Tx:14.6 | remains unfulfilled in him. The burden of guilt is heavy, but | God would not have you bound by it. His plan for your awaking is as |
| Tx:14.6 | with you. His gentleness is yours, and all the love you share with | God He holds in trust for you. He would teach you nothing except how |
| Tx:14.7 | blessing Father, joy was created for you. Who can condemn whom | God has blessed? There is nothing in the Mind of God that does not |
| Tx:14.7 | can condemn whom God has blessed? There is nothing in the Mind of | God that does not share His shining innocence. Creation is the |
| Tx:14.7 | become the teachers of the innocence that is the right of all that | God created. Deny them not what is their due, for you will not |
| Tx:14.8 | but shine away the heavy veils of guilt within which the Son of | God has hidden himself from his own sight. We are all joined in the |
| Tx:14.10 | for the single purpose of release from guilt to the eternal glory of | God and His creation. And every teaching that points to this points |
| Tx:14.10 | that points to this points straight to Heaven and to the peace of | God. There is no pain, no trial, no fear that teaching this can fail |
| Tx:14.10 | trial, no fear that teaching this can fail to overcome. The power of | God Himself supports this teaching and guarantees its limitless |
| Tx:14.11 | teaching such as this. You will not see yourself beyond the power of | God if you teach only this. You will not be exempt from the effects |
| Tx:14.12 | which no one is excluded. Within its holy circle is everyone whom | God created as His Son. Joy is its unifying attribute, with no one |
| Tx:14.12 | with no one left outside to suffer guilt alone. The power of | God draws everyone to its safe embrace of love and union. Stand |
| Tx:14.13 | Fail not the only purpose to which my teaching calls you. Restore to | God His Son as He created him by teaching him his innocence. |
| Tx:14.14 | reign of love. The power of love is in His gentleness, which is of | God and therefore cannot crucify nor suffer crucifixion. The temple |
| Tx:14.14 | altar, for it was rebuilt through you. And everything you give to | God is yours. Thus He creates, and thus must you restore. |
| Tx:14.20 | to Him for His most holy purpose. He knows you are not separate from | God, but He perceives much in your mind that lets you think you are. |
| Tx:14.23 | gates are open wide to greet His Son. No one can fail to come where | God has called him if he close not the door himself upon his Father's |
| Tx:14.26 | From their point of view, it is not true. Yet it is true because | God knows it. These are clearly opposite viewpoints of what the |
| Tx:14.26 | are clearly opposite viewpoints of what the “unknowing” are. To | God, unknowing is impossible. It is therefore not a point of view at |
| Tx:14.28 | no protection does not defend itself. Defense is of your making. | God knows it not. The Holy Spirit uses defenses on behalf of truth |
| Tx:14.29 | of preservation and release. His task is mighty, but the power of | God is with Him. Therefore, to Him it is so easy that it was |
| Tx:14.29 | in your return to peace by wondering how He can fulfill what | God has given Him to do. Leave that to Him Who knows. You are not |
| Tx:14.31 | You cannot see alone. Sharing perception with Him Whom | God has given you teaches you how to recognize what you see. It is |
| Tx:14.31 | fusing of everything into one meaning, one emotion, and one purpose. | God has one purpose which He shares with you. The single vision which |
| Tx:14.31 | so intense you could not wish for all the world not to accept what | God would have you have. Behold your will, accepting it as His, with |
| Tx:14.31 | love as yours. All honor to you through Him, and through Him unto | God. |
| Tx:14.32 | In the darkness you have obscured the glory | God gave you and the power He bestowed upon His guiltless Son. All |
| Tx:14.32 | have closed lies nothing, because nothing can obscure the gift of | God. It is the closing of the doors that interferes with recognition |
| Tx:14.32 | of the doors that interferes with recognition of the power of | God that shines in you. Banish not power from your mind, but let all |
| Tx:14.32 | you would be released from littleness to glory. To what He promised | God He is wholly faithful, for He shared with God the promise that |
| Tx:14.32 | To what He promised God He is wholly faithful, for He shared with | God the promise that was given Him to share with you. |
| Tx:14.33 | to lay upon the altar to your Father and His Son. No altar stands to | God without His Son. And nothing brought there that is not equally |
| Tx:14.33 | gifts wholly acceptable to Father and to Son. Can you offer guilt to | God? You cannot, then, offer it to His Son. For they are not apart, |
| Tx:14.34 | You know not | God because you know not this. And yet you do know God and also this. |
| Tx:14.34 | You know not God because you know not this. And yet you do know | God and also this. All this is safe within you, where the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:14.34 | shines. He shines not in division, but in the meeting place where | God, united with His Son, speaks to His Son through Him. |
| Tx:14.34 | Holy Spirit and in you. All interference in the communication that | God Himself wills with His Son is quite impossible here. Unbroken and |
| Tx:14.35 | by the Guide appointed for you. He will surely lead you to where | God and His Son await your recognition. They are joined in giving you |
| Tx:14.36 | through gentle understanding which can lead you nowhere else. Where | God is, there are you. Such is the truth. Nothing can change the |
| Tx:14.36 | Such is the truth. Nothing can change the knowledge given you by | God into unknowingness. Everything God created knows its Creator. For |
| Tx:14.36 | change the knowledge given you by God into unknowingness. Everything | God created knows its Creator. For this is how creation is |
| Tx:14.37 | of creation and with its One Creator. And Heaven remains the Will of | God for you. Lay no gifts other than this upon your altars, for |
| Tx:14.37 | it. Here your meager offerings are brought together with the gift of | God, and only what is worthy of the Father will be accepted by the |
| Tx:14.37 | will be accepted by the Son, for whom it was intended. To whom | God gives Himself, He is given. Your little gifts will vanish on the |
| Tx:14.38 | you are. The bringing together of truth and illusion, of the ego to | God, is the Holy Spirit's only function. Keep not your making from |
| Tx:14.39 | Bringing the ego to | God is but to bring error to truth, where it stands corrected because |
| Tx:14.40 | will rush to your assistance and support. You are not frail with | God beside you. Yet without Him you are nothing. The Atonement offers |
| Tx:14.40 | you. Yet without Him you are nothing. The Atonement offers you | God. The gift which you refused is held by Him in you. His Spirit |
| Tx:14.40 | refused is held by Him in you. His Spirit holds it there for you. | God has not left His altar, though His worshiper placed other gods |
| Tx:14.41 | knows they will return to purity and to grace. The graciousness of | God will take them gently in and cover all their sense of pain and |
| Tx:14.41 | Love. There, fear of death will be replaced with joy of living. For | God is Life, and they abide in Life. [Life is as holy as the Holiness |
| Tx:14.42 | would hold God's reflection in it. Earth can reflect Heaven or hell; | God or the ego. You need but leave the mirror clean and clear of all |
| Tx:14.42 | clear of all the images of hidden darkness you have drawn upon it. | God will shine upon it of Himself. Only the clear reflection of |
| Tx:14.43 | The reflection of | God needs no interpretation. It is clear. Clean but the mirror, and |
| Tx:14.44 | for a single instant the power of healing that the reflection of | God, shining in you, can bring to all the world, you could not wait |
| Tx:14.45 | rather the actual condition of what was but reflected to them here. | God is no image, and His creations, as part of Him, hold Him in them |
| Tx:14.46 | When no perception stands between | God and His creations, or between His Children and their own, the |
| Tx:14.47 | reflection here, its truth becomes the only perception the Son of | God accepts. And thus, remembrance of his Father dawns on him, and he |
| Tx:14.51 | no judgment of your own. The answer is very simple. The power of | God, and not of you, engenders miracles. The miracle itself is but |
| Tx:14.51 | The miracle itself is but the witness that you have the power of | God in you. That is the reason why the miracle gives equal blessing |
| Tx:14.51 | in it, and that is also why everyone shares in it. The power of | God is limitless. And being always maximal, it offers everything to |
| Tx:14.55 | It is impossible to remember | God in secret and alone. For remembering Him means you are not alone |
| Tx:14.56 | As | God communicates to the Holy Spirit in you, so does the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:14.56 | translate His communications through you so you can understand them. | God has no secret communications, for everything of Him is perfectly |
| Tx:14.57 | identity wherever it is not recognized, you will recognize it. And | God Himself, Who wills to be with His Son forever, will bless each |
| Tx:14.58 | that you do not know. Knowledge is power, and all power is of | God. You who have tried to keep power for yourselves have lost it. |
| Tx:14.58 | of any kind. Yet all that stands between you and the power of | God in you is but your learning of the false and your attempts to |
| Tx:14.59 | forever. For you have taught yourselves how to imprison the Son of | God, a lesson so unthinkable that only the insane, in deepest sleep, |
| Tx:14.59 | that only the insane, in deepest sleep, could even dream of it. Can | God learn how not to be God? And can His Son, given all power by Him, |
| Tx:14.59 | deepest sleep, could even dream of it. Can God learn how not to be | God? And can His Son, given all power by Him, learn to be powerless? |
| Tx:14.61 | in you can hardly judge the truth and value of this course. Yet | God did not abandon you. And so you have another lesson sent from |
| Tx:14.61 | from Him, already learned for every Child of light by Him to Whom | God gave it. This lesson shines with God's glory, for in it lies His |
| Tx:14.63 | You have one test, as sure as | God, by which to recognize if what you learned is true. If you are |
| Tx:14.66 | to attempt to teach yourself what you do not know, the Guide Whom | God has given you will speak to you. He will take His rightful place |
| Tx:14.67 | His Son to turn to Him and remain Himself. It is impossible that | God lose His Identity, for if He did, you would lose yours. And being |
| Tx:14.70 | can abide in what He has established as holy by His Presence. Thank | God that He is there and works through you. And all His works are |
| Tx:14.71 | God's Son will always be indivisible. As we are held as one in | God, so do we learn as one in Him. God's Teacher is as like to His |
| Tx:14.71 | as like to His Creator as is His Son, and through His Teacher does | God proclaim His Oneness and His Son's. Listen in silence, and do not |
| Tx:14.71 | having the holy stamp of immortality upon it. This is the Will of | God for all creation, and all creation joins in willing this. |
| Tx:14.72 | be found alone. Each brings the other with it, for it is the law of | God they be not separate. They are cause and effect, each to the |
| Tx:14.75 | The power of | God, from which they both arise, is yours as surely as it is His. You |
| Tx:15.9 | Each instant is a clean, untarnished birth, in which the Son of | God emerges from the past into the present. And the present extends |
| Tx:15.11 | There is no change in Heaven because there is no change in | God. In the holy instant in which you see yourself as bright with |
| Tx:15.11 | in which you see yourself as bright with freedom, you will remember | God. For remembering Him is to remember freedom. |
| Tx:15.14 | perfect sanity, perfect peace, and perfect love for everyone, for | God, and for yourself. As long as it takes to remember immortality |
| Tx:15.16 | not for time. Being in you, it is eternal. What holds remembrance of | God cannot be bound by time. No more are you. For unless God is |
| Tx:15.16 | of God cannot be bound by time. No more are you. For unless | God is bound, you cannot be. An instant offered to the Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:15.16 | you cannot be. An instant offered to the Holy Spirit is offered to | God on your behalf, and in that instant you will awaken gently in |
| Tx:15.17 | because it is wholly without fear. It will come, being the lesson | God gives you through the Teacher He has appointed to translate time |
| Tx:15.17 | He gently translates hell into Heaven. For it is only in Heaven that | God would have you be. |
| Tx:15.18 | How long can it take to be where | God would have you? For you are where you have forever been and will |
| Tx:15.18 | have forever. The blessed instant reaches out to encompass time, as | God extends Himself to encompass you. You who have spent days, hours, |
| Tx:15.19 | And you will know which you have chosen by their reactions. A Son of | God who has been released through the Holy Spirit in a brother, if |
| Tx:15.20 | will, and you will recognize it with perfect certainty. No gift of | God is recognized in any other way. You can practice the mechanics of |
| Tx:15.21 | from you in this practice, for it is the practice of the power of | God in you. Use it but for one instant, and you will never deny it |
| Tx:15.26 | The power of | God will support every effort you make on behalf of His dear Son. |
| Tx:15.26 | dear Son. Search for the little, and you deny yourself His power. | God is not willing that His Son be content with less than everything. |
| Tx:15.26 | asked you once before, “Would you be hostage to the ego or host to | God?” Let this question be asked you by the Holy Spirit in you every |
| Tx:15.27 | When | God gave Himself to you in your creation, He established you as host |
| Tx:15.27 | and make His Son hostage to the ego cannot make little whom | God has joined with Him. Every decision you make is for Heaven or for |
| Tx:15.28 | Decide for | God through Him. For littleness and the belief that you can be |
| Tx:15.28 | made about yourself. The power and the glory that lie in you from | God are for all who, like you, perceive themselves as little and have |
| Tx:15.28 | Neither give littleness, nor accept it. All honor is due the host of | God. Your littleness deceives you, but your magnitude is of Him Who |
| Tx:15.29 | task together to restore the awareness of magnitude to the host whom | God appointed for Himself. It is beyond all your littleness to give |
| Tx:15.29 | for Himself. It is beyond all your littleness to give the gift of | God, but not beyond you. For God would give Himself through you. He |
| Tx:15.29 | all your littleness to give the gift of God, but not beyond you. For | God would give Himself through you. He reaches from you to everyone |
| Tx:15.30 | little offerings you have given slip into nothingness. Holy Child of | God, when will you learn that only holiness can content you and give |
| Tx:15.31 | together we can replace the shabby littleness that binds the host of | God to guilt and weakness with the glad awareness of the glory that |
| Tx:15.32 | for yourself. But you will gladly give, having received. The host of | God need not seek to find anything. |
| Tx:15.33 | If you are wholly willing to leave salvation to the plan of | God and unwilling to attempt to grasp for peace yourself, salvation |
| Tx:15.33 | all those who would be bound, proclaiming together that the Son of | God is host to Him. Thus will we let no one forget what you would |
| Tx:15.34 | Call forth in everyone only the remembrance of | God and of the Heaven that is in him. For where you would help your |
| Tx:15.35 | not beyond immediate learning unless you prefer to believe that what | God wills takes time. And this means only that you would rather delay |
| Tx:15.36 | and there is nothing else that can bring you peace. For peace is of | God and of no one beside Him. |
| Tx:15.37 | yet great in Him. And value no plan of the ego before the plan of | God. For you leave empty your place in His plan, which you must |
| Tx:15.37 | plan that He has given to the world for its release from littleness. | God would have His host abide in perfect freedom. Every allegiance to |
| Tx:15.39 | at once, for the release from littleness in the mind of the host of | God depends on willingness and not on time. The reason why this |
| Tx:15.41 | you are not in full communication with those around you and with | God Who surrounds all of you together. |
| Tx:15.44 | you. Thus will He make you ready to acknowledge that you are host to | God and hostage to no one and nothing. |
| Tx:15.47 | reality and understand what love means. If you would love unlike to | God, Who knows no special love, how can you understand it? To believe |
| Tx:15.53 | God knows you now. He remembers nothing, having always known you | |
| Tx:15.53 | His frame of reference for it. His frame of reference is simply | God. The Holy Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the holy |
| Tx:15.54 | blessing, it becomes one to you. The meaning of love is the meaning | God gave to it. Give to it any meaning apart from His, and it is |
| Tx:15.54 | apart from His, and it is impossible to understand it. Every brother | God loves as He loves you—neither less nor more. He needs them all |
| Tx:15.54 | are seeking you. Yet in the holy instant, you unite directly with | God, and all your brothers join in Christ. Those who are joined in |
| Tx:15.54 | in no way separate. For Christ is the Self the Sonship shares, as | God shares His Self with Christ. |
| Tx:15.55 | Think you that you can judge the Self of | God? God has created it beyond judgment out of His need to extend His |
| Tx:15.55 | Think you that you can judge the Self of God? | God has created it beyond judgment out of His need to extend His |
| Tx:15.55 | one. For the holy instant reaches to eternity and to the Mind of | God. And it is only there love has meaning, and only there can it be |
| Tx:15.59 | You do not find it difficult to believe that, when another calls on | God for love, your call remains as strong. Nor do you think that, by |
| Tx:15.59 | of yours. That is because you recognize, however dimly, that | God is an idea, and so your faith in Him is strengthened by sharing. |
| Tx:15.60 | give. And this is love, for this alone is natural under the laws of | God. |
| Tx:15.61 | In the holy instant, the laws of | God prevail, and only they have meaning. The laws of this world cease |
| Tx:15.61 | laws of this world cease to hold any meaning at all. When the Son of | God accepts the laws of God as what he gladly wills, it is impossible |
| Tx:15.61 | to hold any meaning at all. When the Son of God accepts the laws of | God as what he gladly wills, it is impossible that he be bound or |
| Tx:15.61 | he be bound or limited in any way. In this instant, he is as free as | God would have him be. For the instant he refuses to be bound, he is |
| Tx:15.62 | instant, you will recognize the only need the aspects of the Son of | God share equally, and by this recognition you will join with me in |
| Tx:15.64 | In the holy instant | God is remembered, and the language of communication with all your |
| Tx:15.64 | and that of all your brothers to replace it in your awareness. | God and the power of God will take their rightful place in you, and |
| Tx:15.64 | your brothers to replace it in your awareness. God and the power of | God will take their rightful place in you, and you will experience |
| Tx:15.67 | for ugliness such as this belongs not in your holy mind. The host of | God can have no real investment here. |
| Tx:15.69 | It is this chain that binds the Son of | God to guilt, and it is this chain the Holy Spirit would remove from |
| Tx:15.69 | For the chain of savagery belongs not around the chosen host of | God, who cannot make himself host to the ego. In the name of his |
| Tx:15.77 | that communication is salvation. And He will do so, for the power of | God in Him and you is joined in real relationship, so holy and so |
| Tx:15.80 | that you cannot conceive of need so great. Behold the only need that | God and His Son share and will to meet together. You are not alone in |
| Tx:15.80 | you to share your will with them. Turn, then, in peace from guilt to | God and them. |
| Tx:15.81 | as nothing more than a mistake in who you are. For the holy host of | God is beyond failure, and nothing that he wills can be denied. You |
| Tx:15.82 | Think but an instant on this: | God gave the Sonship to you to ensure your perfect creation. This was |
| Tx:15.82 | relationships are with the universe. And this universe, being of | God, is far beyond the petty sum of all the separate bodies you |
| Tx:15.82 | the separate bodies you perceive. For all its parts are joined in | God through Christ, where they become like to their Father. For |
| Tx:15.83 | the attempt, it will succeed. The Holy Spirit asks you to respond as | God does, for He would teach you what you do not understand. God |
| Tx:15.83 | as God does, for He would teach you what you do not understand. | God would respond to every need, whatever form it takes. And so He |
| Tx:15.83 | channel open to receive His communication to you and yours to Him. | God does not understand your problem in communication, for He does |
| Tx:15.84 | it because you have made it. In Him alone lies the awareness of what | God cannot know and what you do not understand. It is His holy |
| Tx:15.84 | to Him Who knows it must be possible because it is the Will of | God. And let Him Whose teaching is only of God teach you the only |
| Tx:15.84 | because it is the Will of God. And let Him Whose teaching is only of | God teach you the only meaning of relationships. For God created the |
| Tx:15.84 | is only of God teach you the only meaning of relationships. For | God created the only relationship which has meaning, and that is His |
| Tx:15.85 | the Great Rays shining from them, so unlimited that they reach to | God. It is this shift in vision which is accomplished in the holy |
| Tx:15.85 | you want, it is translated into knowledge by the part which | God Himself plays in the Atonement, for it is the only step in it He |
| Tx:15.85 | Therefore, in this there will be no delay when you are ready for it. | God is ready now, but you are not. |
| Tx:15.87 | Real relationships have no limits, having been established by | God. In the holy instant, where the Great Rays replace the body in |
| Tx:15.88 | It is impossible to divide your strength between Heaven and hell, | God and the ego, and release your power unto creation, which is the |
| Tx:15.89 | If you would but let the Holy Spirit tell you of the love of | God for you and the need your creations have to be with you forever, |
| Tx:15.90 | must remember—the attraction of guilt opposes the attraction of | God. His attraction for you remains unlimited, but because your |
| Tx:15.90 | can turn away from love. What you invest in guilt, you withdraw from | God. And your sight grows weak and dim and limited, for you have |
| Tx:15.91 | there are no bodies, and you experience only the attraction of | God. Accepting it as undivided, you join Him wholly in an instant. |
| Tx:15.93 | For in this liberating instant, no guilt is laid upon the Son of | God, and his unlimited power is thus restored to him. What other gift |
| Tx:15.93 | the gift you offer me. I am as incapable of receiving sacrifice as | God is, and every sacrifice you ask of yourself, you ask of me. Learn |
| Tx:15.95 | you believe that it is possible to be host to the ego or hostage to | God. This is the choice you think you have, and the decision which |
| Tx:15.98 | price of love, which must be paid by fear. How fearful, then, has | God become to you, and how great a sacrifice do you believe His love |
| Tx:15.98 | total sacrifice. And so the ego seems to demand less of you than | God, and of the two is judged as the lesser of two evils, one to be |
| Tx:15.98 | able to be neither completely. And this you think saves you from | God, Whose total love would completely destroy you. |
| Tx:15.99 | price of not accepting this has been so great that you have given | God away rather than look at it. For if God would demand total |
| Tx:15.99 | so great that you have given God away rather than look at it. For if | God would demand total sacrifice of you, you thought it safer to |
| Tx:15.100 | it is that makes the decision so easy! Salvation is simple, being of | God and therefore very easy to understand. Do not try to project it |
| Tx:15.100 | question and the answer—the demand for sacrifice and the peace of | God. |
| Tx:15.102 | the whole idea of sacrifice loses all meaning. For He is Host to | God. And you need but invite Him in Who is there already, by |
| Tx:15.102 | holiness which surrounds it. No fear can touch the host who cradles | God in the time of Christ, for the Host is as holy as the Perfect |
| Tx:15.104 | peace is the condition for the awareness of your relationship with | God. Through guilt you exclude your Father and your brothers from |
| Tx:15.106 | For unless the universe were joined in you, it would be apart from | God, and to be without Him is to be without meaning. |
| Tx:15.109 | God offers thanks to the holy host who would receive Him and let Him | |
| Tx:16.7 | The power of love, which is its meaning, lies in the strength of | God, which hovers over it and blesses it silently by enveloping it in |
| Tx:16.12 | of the whole in every part is perfectly natural. For it is the way | God thinks, and what is natural to Him is natural to you. Wholly |
| Tx:16.15 | you, and be glad you do not understand it. Miracles are natural to | God and to the One Who speaks for Him. For His task is to translate |
| Tx:16.16 | You can delay this now but only a little while. The Host of | God has called to you, and you have heard. Never again will you be |
| Tx:16.17 | of your interpretation, considering honestly what they have been? | God wills you better. Could you not look with greater charity on whom |
| Tx:16.17 | wills you better. Could you not look with greater charity on whom | God loves with perfect love? |
| Tx:16.25 | already done this, for the Holy Spirit is part of you. Created by | God, He left neither God nor His creation. He is both God and you, as |
| Tx:16.25 | for the Holy Spirit is part of you. Created by God, He left neither | God nor His creation. He is both God and you, as you are God and Him |
| Tx:16.25 | Created by God, He left neither God nor His creation. He is both | God and you, as you are God and Him together. For God's answer to the |
| Tx:16.25 | neither God nor His creation. He is both God and you, as you are | God and Him together. For God's answer to the separation added more |
| Tx:16.25 | to your teaching of yourself, who is their home. You who are host to | God are also host to them. For nothing real has ever left the mind of |
| Tx:16.26 | You are not two selves in conflict. What is beyond | God? If you who hold Him and whom He holds are the universe, all else |
| Tx:16.31 | last emerge as yourself. This is the last step in the readiness for | God. Be not unwilling now. You are too near, and you will cross the |
| Tx:16.37 | which you could never be complete. No specialness can offer you what | God has given and what you are joined with Him in giving. |
| Tx:16.38 | Across the bridge is your completion, for you will be wholly in | God, willing for nothing special but only to be wholly like unto Him, |
| Tx:16.38 | abode of peace and perfect holiness. Only there is the completion of | God and of His Son established forever. Seek not for this in the |
| Tx:16.38 | is certain, and where everything fails to satisfy. In the Name of | God, be wholly willing to abandon all illusions. In any relationship |
| Tx:16.38 | you are wholly willing to accept completion, and only this, there is | God completed and His Son with Him. |
| Tx:16.39 | to union in yourself must lead to knowledge, for it was built with | God beside you and will lead you straight to Him, where your |
| Tx:16.40 | is wholly without illusion and therefore wholly without fear. Whom | God remembers must be whole. And God has never forgotten what makes |
| Tx:16.40 | therefore wholly without fear. Whom God remembers must be whole. And | God has never forgotten what makes Him whole. In your completion lies |
| Tx:16.40 | In Him are joined your willingness to love and all the love of | God, Who forgot you not. |
| Tx:16.41 | away from truth together, and then together we go straight to | God in joyous answer to His call for His completion. |
| Tx:16.42 | completion, can they have value to you? What would interfere with | God must interfere with you. Only in time does interference in God's |
| Tx:16.42 | upheld by timelessness, you are directed straight to the Heart of | God. At its center, and only there, you are safe forever because you |
| Tx:16.42 | because you are complete forever. There is no veil the love of | God in us together cannot lift. The way to truth is open. Follow it |
| Tx:16.44 | Very simply, the attempt to make guilty is always directed against | God. For the ego would have you see Him, and Him alone, as guilty, |
| Tx:16.46 | special relationship, born of the hidden wish for special love from | God, that the ego's hatred triumphs. For the special relationship is |
| Tx:16.46 | For the special relationship is the renunciation of the love of | God and the attempt to secure for the self the specialness which He |
| Tx:16.47 | and in the extension of the “victory” even to the final triumph over | God. In this it sees the ultimate freedom of the self, for nothing |
| Tx:16.52 | If you perceived the special relationship as a triumph over | God, would you want it? Let us not think of its fearful nature nor of |
| Tx:16.52 | to occur. The central theme in its litany to sacrifice is that | God must die so you can live. And it is this theme which is acted out |
| Tx:16.54 | of form, aimed at the raising of the form to take the place of | God at the expense of content. There is no meaning in the form, and |
| Tx:16.54 | a senseless ritual in which strength is extracted from the death of | God and invested in His killer as the sign that form has triumphed |
| Tx:16.54 | For if it were possible, you would have made yourself helpless. | God is not angry. He merely could not let this happen. You cannot |
| Tx:16.55 | to the eternal. Nor can your chosen substitute for the wholeness of | God have any influence at all upon it. See in the special |
| Tx:16.56 | unable to make the simple choice between truth and illusion, | God and fantasy. Remember this and you will have no difficulty in |
| Tx:16.57 | truth and into fantasy. Yet for every learning that would hurt you, | God offers you correction and complete escape from all its |
| Tx:16.58 | cross the bridge into reality simply because you will recognize that | God is on the other side and nothing at all is here. It is impossible |
| Tx:16.59 | is the sign that you equate yourself with the ego and not with | God. For the special relationship has value only to the ego. To the |
| Tx:16.59 | Yet this cannot be natural, for it is unlike the relationship of | God and His Son, and all relationships that are unlike this one must |
| Tx:16.59 | all relationships that are unlike this one must be unnatural. For | God created love as He would have it be and gave it as it is. Love |
| Tx:16.60 | yourself in bondage is to separate yourself from it. For the love of | God, no longer seek for union in separation nor for freedom in |
| Tx:16.62 | the universe. Far more is left outside than would be taken in. For | God is left without and nothing taken in. If one such union were made |
| Tx:16.68 | take its rightful place within it. Wait no longer, for the love of | God and you. And may the holy instant speed you on the way, as it |
| Tx:16.77 | What | God has given you is truly given and will be truly received. For |
| Tx:16.77 | Holy Spirit teaches you is to remind you that you have received what | God has given you. |
| Tx:16.78 | Their reality has no past, and only illusions can be forgiven. | God holds nothing against anyone, for He is incapable of illusions of |
| Tx:16.79 | heal and the ego's “atonement” which would destroy. The power of | God and all His Love, without limit, will support you as you seek |
| Tx:16.79 | place in the plan of Atonement arising from His Love. Be an ally of | God and not the ego in seeking how Atonement can come to you. His |
| Tx:16.80 | to give over all illusions for the reality of your relationship with | God. Praise be to your relationship with Him and to no other. The |
| Tx:16.81 | Let us not wander into temptation, for the temptation of the Son of | God is not Your will. And let us receive only what you have given and |
| Tx:17.1 | The betrayal of the Son of | God lies only in illusions, and all his “sins” are but his own |
| Tx:17.1 | In his dreams he has betrayed himself, his brothers, and his | God. Yet what is done in dreams has not been really done. It is |
| Tx:17.7 | the happiness this sight will bring you. For you will see the Son of | God. You will behold the beauty which the Holy Spirit loves to look |
| Tx:17.10 | real world will be so short that you will barely have time to thank | God for it. For God will take the last step swiftly when you have |
| Tx:17.10 | be so short that you will barely have time to thank God for it. For | God will take the last step swiftly when you have reached the real |
| Tx:17.11 | reason is suddenly released to loveliness. Not even what the Son of | God made in insanity could be without a hidden spark of beauty which |
| Tx:17.12 | a sign of God's perfection. From the forgiven world, the Son of | God is lifted easily into his home. And there he knows that he has |
| Tx:17.14 | immortal are “enemies” of reality. Be willing to forgive the Son of | God for what he did not do. The shadow figures are the witnesses you |
| Tx:17.22 | to light your way and make it clear to you. God's Son is one. Whom | God has joined as one, the ego cannot break apart. The spark of |
| Tx:17.25 | —it is all the same. For you can never choose except between | God and the ego. Thought systems are but true or false, and all their |
| Tx:17.25 | attributes come simply from what they are. Only the Thoughts of | God are true. And all that follows from them comes from what they are |
| Tx:17.26 | dreams are cherished have excluded me. Let me enter in the Name of | God and bring you peace that you may offer peace to me. |
| Tx:17.27 | God established His relationship with you to make you happy, and | |
| Tx:17.27 | you do which does not share His purpose can be real. The purpose | God ascribed to anything is its only function. Because of His reason |
| Tx:17.27 | else. To fulfill this function, you relate to your creations as | God to His. For nothing God created is apart from happiness, and |
| Tx:17.27 | function, you relate to your creations as God to His. For nothing | God created is apart from happiness, and nothing God created but |
| Tx:17.27 | to His. For nothing God created is apart from happiness, and nothing | God created but would extend happiness as its Creator did. Whatever |
| Tx:17.28 | is meant is that He will restore to them the function given them by | God. The function you have given them is clearly not to make happy. |
| Tx:17.30 | from the Holy Spirit was in response to the gift with which | God blessed it and by His blessing enabled it to be healed. This |
| Tx:17.30 | close relationship with you because in Him is your relationship with | God restored to you. The relationship with Him has never been broken |
| Tx:17.36 | be undertaken to keep truth whole. The power of Heaven, the love of | God, the tears of Christ, and the joy of His eternal Spirit are |
| Tx:17.41 | Itself. What it represents is there. The frame fades gently, and | God rises to your remembrance, offering you the whole of creation in |
| Tx:17.42 | As | God ascends into His rightful place and you to yours, you will |
| Tx:17.42 | For here is only healing, already complete and perfect. For here is | God, and where He is, only the perfect and complete can be. |
| Tx:17.51 | unchanged throughout eternity? For you have chosen but the goal of | God from which your true intent was never absent. |
| Tx:17.52 | with you. Think not your choice will leave you comfortless, for | God Himself has blessed your holy relationship. Join in His blessing, |
| Tx:17.73 | are no longer wholly insane, nor no longer alone. For loneliness in | God must be a dream. You whose relationship shares the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:17.78 | Such was the crucifixion of the Son of | God. His faithlessness did this to him. Think carefully before you |
| Tx:18.2 | One would unite; the other separate. Nothing can come between what | God has joined and what the Holy Spirit sees as one. But everything |
| Tx:18.4 | You who believe that | God is fear made but one substitution. It has taken many forms |
| Tx:18.8 | the stately calm within, where in holy stillness dwells the living | God you never left and Who never left you. The Holy Spirit takes you |
| Tx:18.9 | only the truth about each other can abide. Here you are joined in | God, as much together as you are with Him. The original error has not |
| Tx:18.10 | You are so firmly joined in truth that only | God is there. And He would never accept something else instead of |
| Tx:18.10 | cannot remain to darken the holy place in which you stand together. | God is with you, my brothers. Let us join in Him in peace and |
| Tx:18.11 | and love has shined upon you, blessing your relationship with truth. | God and His whole creation have entered it together. How lovely and |
| Tx:18.11 | beholds it and rejoices that you have let it come to you. [And | God Himself is glad that your relationship is as it was created.] The |
| Tx:18.12 | Whom | God has called should hear no substitutes. Their call is but an echo |
| Tx:18.13 | Accept it here, and you will give as you have accepted. The peace of | God is given you with the glowing purpose in which you join. The holy |
| Tx:18.23 | so do the real world and the truth of Heaven join in the Will of | God. The dream of waking is easily transferred to its reality. For |
| Tx:18.23 | reality. For this dream comes from your will joined with the Will of | God. And what this will would have accomplished has never not been |
| Tx:18.24 | truth forever in complete insanity. What you forgot was simply that | God cannot destroy Himself. The light is in you. Darkness can cover |
| Tx:18.27 | only in frightening yourselves. The gift is given forever, for | God Himself received it. You cannot take it back. You have accepted |
| Tx:18.27 | God Himself received it. You cannot take it back. You have accepted | God. The holiness of your relationship is established in Heaven. You |
| Tx:18.27 | wish to understand. That wish was the desire to be holy. The Will of | God is granted you. For you desire the only thing you ever had or |
| Tx:18.28 | walk with you in your advance to truth. And where we go, we carry | God with us. |
| Tx:18.29 | you have joined with me in bringing Heaven to the Son of | God, who hid in darkness. You have been willing to bring the darkness |
| Tx:18.31 | but goes with you. Not one ray that shines forever in the Mind of | God but shines on you. Heaven is joined with you in your advance to |
| Tx:18.31 | joined with you to give the little spark of your desire the power of | God Himself, can you remain in darkness? You are coming home together |
| Tx:18.31 | light will the Great Rays extend back into darkness and forward unto | God to shine away the past and so make room for His eternal Presence, |
| Tx:18.34 | what is this but the determination to be as you would make yourself? | God did not create His dwelling-place unworthy of Him. And if you |
| Tx:18.35 | believe that it is up to you to establish the conditions for peace. | God has established them. They do not wait upon your willingness for |
| Tx:18.36 | more than simple willingness to make way for it. Purification is of | God alone and therefore for you. Rather than seek to prepare yourself |
| Tx:18.37 | I who am host to | God am worthy of Him. He Who established His dwelling-place in me |
| Tx:18.40 | for you impossible. What you believe to be impossible will be if | God so wills it, but you will remain quite unaware of it. If you |
| Tx:18.40 | in orders of difficulty in miracles is centered on this. Everything | God wills is not only possible but has already happened. And that is |
| Tx:18.43 | prepare yourselves for such a function? Yet it is possible because | God wills it. Nor will He change His Mind about it. The means and |

| Tx:18.49 | Himself. The Kingdom of Heaven is the dwelling-place of the Son of | God, who left not his Father and dwells not apart from Him. Heaven is |
| Tx:18.50 | What could | God give but knowledge of Himself? What else is there to give? The |
| Tx:18.52 | not condemn it and can use it lovingly, respecting what the Son of | God has made and using it to save him from illusions. |
| Tx:18.53 | what cannot destroy can have no real effect at all. And what | God created is only what He would have it be, being His Will. You |
| Tx:18.54 | no meaning, proclaiming it to be the dwelling-place of the Son of | God and turning it against him. |
| Tx:18.55 | This is the host of | God that you have made. And neither God nor His most holy Son can |
| Tx:18.55 | This is the host of God that you have made. And neither | God nor His most holy Son can enter an abode which harbors hate and |
| Tx:18.57 | [and them from you]. It is not there. There is no barrier between | God and His Son, nor can His Son be separated from himself except in |
| Tx:18.57 | not his reality, though he believes it is. Yet this could only be if | God were wrong. God would have had to create differently and to have |
| Tx:18.57 | though he believes it is. Yet this could only be if God were wrong. | God would have had to create differently and to have separated |
| Tx:18.57 | And so it is. You cannot put a barrier around yourself because | God placed none between Himself and you. |
| Tx:18.58 | your shared Identity together. Could this be outside you? Where | God is not? Is He a body, and did He create you as He is not and |
| Tx:18.71 | with externals, something outside itself. You cannot even think of | God without a body or some form you think you recognize. |
| Tx:18.72 | its tiny senses, you will not see the grandeur which surrounds you. | God cannot come into a body, nor can you join Him there. Limits on |
| Tx:18.72 | from the whole, proclaiming that within it is your kingdom, where | God can enter not. |
| Tx:18.79 | The Thought of | God surrounds your little kingdom, waiting at the barrier you built |

| Tx:18.84 | needs help because in its delusions it thinks it is the Son of | God, whole and omnipotent, sole ruler of the kingdom it set apart to |
| Tx:18.85 | by hate. Within its barricades is still a tiny segment of the Son of | God, complete and holy, serene and unaware of what you think |
| Tx:18.87 | quite unaware of it; its tongue cannot relay its messages. Yet | God can bring you there if you are willing to follow the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:18.93 | you had laid upon it. Here there is no attack upon the Son of | God, and you are welcome. Here is your innocence, waiting to clothe |
| Tx:18.94 | is the messenger of love and not its Source. Here you are led that | God Himself can take the final step unhindered, for here does nothing |
| Tx:18.95 | will go beyond it but in a different way. Where learning ends there | God begins, for learning ends before Him Who is complete where He |

| Tx:19.2 | properly perceived becomes an opportunity to heal the Son of | God. And he is healed because you offered faith to him, giving him to |
| Tx:19.5 | heal.] Faithlessness would interpose illusions between the Son of | God and his Creator; faith would remove all obstacles that seem to |
| Tx:19.7 | Here then is healing needed. And it is here that healing is. For | God gave healing not apart from sickness, nor established remedy |
| Tx:19.12 | Faith is the gift of | God, through Him Whom God has given you. Faithlessness looks upon the |
| Tx:19.12 | Faith is the gift of God, through Him Whom | God has given you. Faithlessness looks upon the Son of God and judges |
| Tx:19.12 | Him Whom God has given you. Faithlessness looks upon the Son of | God and judges him unworthy of forgiveness. But through the eyes of |
| Tx:19.12 | unworthy of forgiveness. But through the eyes of faith, the Son of | God is seen already forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid upon |
| Tx:19.12 | sign you share it with Him. Faith is a gift you offer to the Son of | God through Him, and wholly acceptable to his Father as to him. And |
| Tx:19.14 | In the holy instant, you stand before the altar | God has raised unto Himself and both of you. Lay faithlessness aside |
| Tx:19.16 | time. For what you think you do to the eternal you do to you. Whom | God created as His Son is slave to nothing, being lord of all along |
| Tx:19.18 | that attack is real and guilt is justified. It assumes the Son of | God is guilty and has thus succeeded in losing his innocence and |
| Tx:19.18 | has thus succeeded in losing his innocence and making himself what | God created not. Thus is creation seen as not eternal, and the Will |
| Tx:19.18 | created not. Thus is creation seen as not eternal, and the Will of | God open to opposition and defeat. Sin is the “grand illusion” |
| Tx:19.18 | “grand illusion” underlying all the ego's grandiosity. For by it, | God Himself is changed and rendered incomplete. |
| Tx:19.19 | The Son of | God can be mistaken; he can deceive himself; he can even turn the |
| Tx:19.20 | And it is this doctrine which replaces the reality of the Son of | God as his Father created him and willed that he be forever. Is this |
| Tx:19.22 | have is found in this. For sin has changed creation from an idea of | God to an ideal the ego wants; a world it rules, made up of bodies, |
| Tx:19.23 | idea that sin is real—the natural expression of what the Son of | God has made himself to be and what he is. To the ego, this is no |
| Tx:19.23 | Father and changed His Mind completely. Mourn, then, the death of | God, Whom sin has killed! And this would be the ego's wish, which in |
| Tx:19.27 | punish sin. Mistakes He recognizes and would correct them all as | God entrusted Him to do. But sin He knows not, nor can He recognize |
| Tx:19.28 | and thus unanswered? In time the Holy Spirit clearly sees the Son of | God can make mistakes. On this you share His vision. Yet you do not |
| Tx:19.31 | to believe that sin is real, remember this: If sin is real, both | God and you are not. If creation is extension, the Creator must have |
| Tx:19.31 | that what is part of Him is totally unlike the rest. If sin is real, | God must be at war with Himself. He must be split and torn between |
| Tx:19.32 | world in which the proof of separation seems to be everywhere. And | God and His creation seem to be split apart and overthrown. For sin |
| Tx:19.32 | seem to be split apart and overthrown. For sin would prove what | God created holy could not prevail against it nor remain itself |
| Tx:19.32 | itself before the power of sin. Sin is perceived as mightier than | God, before which God Himself must bow and offer His creation to its |
| Tx:19.32 | power of sin. Sin is perceived as mightier than God, before which | God Himself must bow and offer His creation to its conqueror. Is this |
| Tx:19.38 | to him and he will answer you, recognizing in your call the Call of | God. And you will draw him in and give him rest, as it was given you. |
| Tx:19.39 | here will be accomplished. What need is there for seeing then? When | God has taken the last step Himself, the Holy Spirit will gather all |
| Tx:19.40 | If you would make it homeless, how can it abide within the Son of | God? If it would spread across the whole creation, it must begin with |
| Tx:19.41 | forth. This little wall of hatred would still oppose the Will of | God and keep it limited. |
| Tx:19.42 | unwilling to let it join you wholly. You still oppose the Will of | God, just by a little. And that little is a limit you would place |
| Tx:19.43 | such have you become. Peace could no more depart from you than from | God. Fear not this little obstacle. It cannot contain the Will of |
| Tx:19.43 | God. Fear not this little obstacle. It cannot contain the Will of | God. Peace will flow across it and join you without hindrance. |
| Tx:19.56 | murder. Salvation is looked upon as a way by which the Son of | God was killed instead of you. |
| Tx:19.65 | you would look on me. Forgive me all the sins you think the Son of | God committed. And in the light of your forgiveness, he will remember |
| Tx:19.79 | This is not arrogance. It is the Will of | God. What is impossible to you who chose His Will as yours? What is |
| Tx:19.79 | we call the ego as surely as life is the result of the Thought of | God. |
| Tx:19.80 | and death, in opposition to life and innocence and to the Will of | God Himself. Where can such opposition lie but in the sick minds of |
| Tx:19.80 | to madness and set against the peace of Heaven? One thing is sure— | God, Who created neither sin nor death, wills not that you be bound |
| Tx:19.81 | upon it as himself. You who believe you have condemned the Son of | God to this are arrogant. But you who would release him are but |
| Tx:19.82 | result of a tiny mad idea of corruption which can be corrected. For | God has answered this insane idea with His own, an Answer which left |
| Tx:19.84 | the answer to the Answer, the silencer of the Voice that speaks for | God. Yet the retreat to death is not the end of conflict. Only God's |
| Tx:19.85 | the dusty edge of its distorted world, the ego would lay the Son of | God, slain by its orders, proof in his decay that God Himself is |
| Tx:19.85 | lay the Son of God, slain by its orders, proof in his decay that | God Himself is powerless before the ego's might, unable to protect |
| Tx:19.85 | conquer life. And what but insanity could look upon the defeat of | God and think it real? |
| Tx:19.86 | protected by your union, ready to grow into a mighty force for | God, is very near. The infancy of salvation is carefully guarded by |
| Tx:19.86 | is nursed by angels, cherished by the Holy Spirit, and protected by | God Himself. It needs not your protection; it is yours. For it is |
| Tx:19.87 | been given you, even in its infancy, is in full communication with | God and you. In its tiny hands, it holds in perfect safety every |
| Tx:19.87 | by your forgiveness of each other, and see in it the Will of | God. Here is the babe of Bethlehem reborn. And everyone who gives him |
| Tx:19.90 | a final obstacle after which is salvation completed and the Son of | God entirely restored to sanity. For here your world does end. |
| Tx:19.92 | call you out of separation; the great amnesia in which the memory of | God seems quite forgotten; the cleavage of your Self from you—the |
| Tx:19.92 | quite forgotten; the cleavage of your Self from you—the fear of | God, the final step in your dissociation. |
| Tx:19.93 | secret alliance with them, you have agreed never to let the fear of | God be lifted so you could look upon the face of Christ and join Him |
| Tx:19.98 | No one can look upon the fear of | God unterrified unless he has accepted the Atonement and learned |
| Tx:19.100 | To look upon the fear of | God does need some preparation. Only the sane can look on stark |
| Tx:19.100 | complete forgiveness, you still stand unforgiving. You are afraid of | God because you fear each other. Those you do not forgive you fear. |
| Tx:19.103 | it to you? For his redemption, he will give you yours as surely as | God created every living thing and loves it. And he will give it |
| Tx:19.105 | your brother is before you would condemn him. And offer thanks to | God that he is holy and has been given the gift of holiness for you. |
| Tx:19.106 | the gift is given. Look on your brother, and see in him the gift of | God you would receive. It is almost Easter, the time of resurrection. |
| Tx:19.108 | found; not to be seen, but known. And knowing, nothing in the plan | God has established for salvation will be left undone. This is the |
| Tx:19.108 | without which is the journey meaningless. Here is the peace of | God, given to you eternally by Him. Here is the rest and quiet that |
| Tx:19.108 | you owe each other, the debt of gratitude you offer to the Son of | God in thanks for what he is and what his Father created him to be. |
| Tx:19.110 | that it would lift you far beyond the veil and place the Son of | God safely within the sure protection of his Father. Here is the only |
| Tx:20.2 | with palms and ends with lilies, the white and holy sign the Son of | God is innocent. Let no dark sign of crucifixion intervene between |
| Tx:20.2 | life, not death. And we honor the perfect purity of the Son of | God and not his sins. Offer each other the gift of lilies, not the |
| Tx:20.3 | and yet this holy week is the symbol of the whole journey the Son of | God has undertaken. He started with the sign of victory the promise |
| Tx:20.7 | on yourself. Here is your gift to both; your judgment on the Son of | God for what he is. Forget not that it is your savior to whom the |
| Tx:20.8 | I have great need for lilies, for the Son of | God has not forgiven me. And can I offer him forgiveness when he |
| Tx:20.8 | for me that I may be forgiven and you may look upon the Son of | God as whole. But look you first upon the altar in your chosen home |
| Tx:20.11 | see no thorns, no strangers, and no obstacles to peace. The fear of | God is nothing to you now. Who is afraid to look upon illusions, |
| Tx:20.11 | has become the greatest power for the undoing of illusion that | God Himself could give. For what God gave the Holy Spirit, you have |
| Tx:20.11 | for the undoing of illusion that God Himself could give. For what | God gave the Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son of God looks |
| Tx:20.11 | For what God gave the Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son of | God looks unto you for his release. For you have asked for and been |
| Tx:20.11 | final obstacle and see no thorns nor nails to crucify the Son of | God and crown him king of death. Your chosen home is on the other |
| Tx:20.12 | no fear in love. The song of Easter is the glad refrain the Son of | God was never crucified. Let us lift up our eyes together, not in |
| Tx:20.14 | peace of Easter, in which we join in glad awareness that the Son of | God is risen from the past and has awakened to the present. Now is he |
| Tx:20.22 | it as you see it is not outside you. Seek not to make the Son of | God adjust to his insanity. There is a stranger in him who wandered |
| Tx:20.23 | seeing universe of truth you ask, “How shall I look upon the Son of | God?” |
| Tx:20.24 | How happy did it make you? Did you meet with joy to bless the Son of | God and give him thanks for all the happiness which he held out to |
| Tx:20.24 | held out to you? Did you recognize each other as the eternal gift of | God to you? Did you see the holiness that shone in both of you to |
| Tx:20.25 | you shall this day enter with him to Paradise and know the peace of | God. |
| Tx:20.27 | it fear without? The innocent see safety, and the pure in heart see | God within His Son and look unto the Son to lead them to the Father. |
| Tx:20.27 | be? Each of you now will lead the other to the Father as surely as | God created His Son holy and kept him so. In your brother is the |
| Tx:20.28 | you lose. It is not up to you to give power at all. Power is of | God, given by Him and reawakened by the Holy Spirit, Who knows that |
| Tx:20.28 | illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit merely gives everything to | God, Who has already given and received all that is true. The untrue |
| Tx:20.29 | the Holy Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of the laws of | God in minds that have established other laws and given them power to |
| Tx:20.29 | have established other laws and given them power to enforce what | God created not. |
| Tx:20.30 | that you see in him, you see your own. For this you share. What | God has given follows His laws and His alone. Nor is it possible for |
| Tx:20.31 | choose freedom will experience only its results. Their power is of | God, and they will give it only to what God has given to share with |
| Tx:20.31 | results. Their power is of God, and they will give it only to what | God has given to share with them. Nothing but this can touch them, |
| Tx:20.31 | for they see only this, sharing their power according to the Will of | God. And thus their freedom is established and maintained. It is |
| Tx:20.33 | a new world rises in which sin can enter not, and where the Son of | God can enter without fear, and where he rests a while to forget |
| Tx:20.34 | the face of Christ shines on them, and they remember the laws of | God, forgetting all the rest and yearning only to have His laws |
| Tx:20.35 | seems impossible to you. But ask yourself if it is possible that | God would have a plan for your salvation that does not work. Once you |
| Tx:20.36 | It rests on you. And what can be more certain than a Son of | God? |
| Tx:20.38 | relationship, which has the power to hold the unity of the Son of | God together. You give to one another for everyone, and in your gift |
| Tx:20.43 | you exchange this gift for any other? This gift returns the laws of | God to your remembrance. And merely by remembering them, the laws |
| Tx:20.44 | in love and perfect confidence in what He sees. He knows the Son of | God and shares his Father's certainty the universe rests in his |
| Tx:20.44 | as his Father knows him. And yet it is impossible the confidence of | God should be misplaced. |
| Tx:20.45 | The meaning of the Son of | God lies solely in his relationship with his Creator. If it were |
| Tx:20.45 | else. And this is wholly loving and forever. Yet has the Son of | God invented an unholy relationship between him and his Father. His |
| Tx:20.50 | “mystery” of separation perceived in awe and held in reverence. What | God would have not be is here kept “safe” from Him. But what you do |
| Tx:20.50 | you fear within your brother and would not see in him is what makes | God seem fearful to you and kept unknown. |
| Tx:20.52 | that. The instant that the mad idea of making your relationship with | God unholy seemed to be possible, all your relationships were made |
| Tx:20.54 | The holy relationship reflects the true relationship the Son of | God has with his Father in reality. The Holy Spirit rests within it |
| Tx:20.55 | of water and set uncertainly upon oblivion. Here does the Son of | God stop briefly by to offer his devotion to death's idols, and then |
| Tx:20.57 | and it has meaning. It is as like your real relationship with | God as equal things are like unto each other. Idolatry is past and |
| Tx:20.57 | you fear each other a little yet; perhaps a shadow of the fear of | God remains with you. Yet what is that to those who have been given |
| Tx:20.69 | desire to see his sinlessness, as it is yours. And bless the Son of | God in your relationship, nor see in him what you have made of him. |
| Tx:20.70 | The Holy Spirit guarantees that what | God willed and gave you shall be yours. This is your purpose now, and |
| Tx:20.77 | Think but an instant just on this—you can behold the holiness | God gave His Son. And never need you think that there is something |
| Tx:21.2 | See it as damned, and all you see is what you did to hurt the Son of | God. If you behold disaster and catastrophe, you tried to crucify |
| Tx:21.2 | to crucify him. If you see holiness and hope, you joined the Will of | God to set him free. There is no choice that lies between these two |
| Tx:21.11 | This is the vision of the Son of | God, whom you know well. Here is the sight of him who knows his |
| Tx:21.11 | ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn [of love] the Son of | God sings to his Father still. |
| Tx:21.12 | of this song. And they will look upon the vision of the Son of | God, remembering who he is they sing of. What is a miracle but this |
| Tx:21.17 | It is impossible the Son of | God be merely driven by events outside of him. It is impossible that |
| Tx:21.17 | accident. No accident nor chance is possible within the universe as | God created it, outside of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided |
| Tx:21.17 | happy, and you gave the power of decision to Him Who must decide for | God for you. This is the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:21.20 | an idea that it is possible that things should happen to the Son of | God without his will and thus without the Will of his Creator, Whose |
| Tx:21.21 | must forever be. This is the statement that he has the power to make | God powerless and so to take it for himself and leave himself without |
| Tx:21.21 | and so to take it for himself and leave himself without what | God has willed for him. This is the mad idea you have enshrined upon |
| Tx:21.31 | indeed a little feat for such a power. For faith can keep the Son of | God in chains as long as he believes he is in chains. And when he is |
| Tx:21.33 | It is impossible that the Son of | God lack faith, but he can choose where he would have it be. |
| Tx:21.33 | given to illusions does not lack power, for by it does the Son of | God believe that he is powerless. Thus is he faithless to himself, |
| Tx:21.42 | not to look inward, for if you do, your eyes will light on sin, and | God will strike you blind. This you believe, and so you do not look. |
| Tx:21.49 | than what you would prefer to overlook. The still small Voice for | God is not drowned out by all the ego's raucous screams and senseless |
| Tx:21.53 | your will and your consent. It must have been accepted by the Son of | God, for what God wills for him he must receive. For God wills not |
| Tx:21.53 | your consent. It must have been accepted by the Son of God, for what | God wills for him he must receive. For God wills not apart from him, |
| Tx:21.53 | by the Son of God, for what God wills for him he must receive. For | God wills not apart from him, nor does the Will of God wait upon time |
| Tx:21.53 | must receive. For God wills not apart from him, nor does the Will of | God wait upon time to be accomplished. Therefore, what joined the |
| Tx:21.53 | upon time to be accomplished. Therefore, what joined the Will of | God must be in you now, being eternal. You must have set aside a |
| Tx:21.54 | unaware of what is so, for this must have an answer if the plan of | God for your salvation is complete. And it must be complete because |
| Tx:21.61 | No one can think but for himself, as | God thinks not without His Son. Only were both in bodies could this |
| Tx:21.64 | If you choose sin instead of healing, you would condemn the Son of | God to what can never be corrected. You tell him by your choice that |
| Tx:21.65 | you and seeks not to frighten you. The power to heal the Son of | God is given you because he must be one with you. You are responsible |
| Tx:21.68 | The Son of | God is always blessed as one. And as his gratitude goes out to you |
| Tx:21.69 | The power that you have over the Son of | God is not a threat to his reality. It but attests to it. Where could |
| Tx:21.69 | already? And who could bind him but himself if he deny his freedom? | God is not mocked; no more His Son can be imprisoned save by his own |
| Tx:21.70 | they are little could see attraction there. Treachery to the Son of | God is the defense of those who do not identify with him. And you are |
| Tx:21.71 | No one believes the Son of | God is powerless. And those who see themselves as helpless must |
| Tx:21.71 | see themselves as helpless must believe that they are not the Son of | God. What can they be except his enemy? And what can they do but envy |
| Tx:21.71 | afraid, alone and not communicating, fearful the power of the Son of | God will strike them dead and raising up their helplessness against |
| Tx:21.87 | —no change of any kind. It is unshakable as is the love of | God for His creation. Sure in its vision as its Creator is in what He |
| Tx:21.88 | ask because desire is a request, an asking for, and made by one whom | God Himself will never fail to answer. God has already given him all |
| Tx:21.88 | for, and made by one whom God Himself will never fail to answer. | God has already given him all that he really wants. Yet what he is |
| Tx:21.88 | given him all that he really wants. Yet what he is uncertain of, | God cannot give. For he does not desire it while he remains |
| Tx:22.1 | Take pity on yourselves, so long enslaved. Rejoice whom | God hath joined have come together and need no longer look on sin |
| Tx:22.4 | apparent. Here is the golden circle where you recognize the Son of | God. For what is born into a holy relationship can never end. |
| Tx:22.5 | Let reason take another step. If you attack whom | God would heal and hate the one He loves, then you and your Creator |
| Tx:22.7 | would tell you it cannot be true because you do not understand it. | God has no secrets. He does not lead you through a world of misery, |
| Tx:22.13 | Be certain | God did not entrust His Son to the unworthy. Nothing but what is part |
| Tx:22.15 | for you, and yours with His. And who is drawn to Christ is drawn to | God as surely as both are drawn to every holy relationship, the home |
| Tx:22.24 | we have seen many times before. Only if it were possible the Son of | God could leave his Father's Mind, make himself different, and oppose |
| Tx:22.26 | recognize him. Yet it is possible to recognize him for what he is if | God would have it so. What God has given to your holy relationship is |
| Tx:22.26 | to recognize him for what he is if God would have it so. What | God has given to your holy relationship is there. For what He gave |
| Tx:22.26 | you gave him for the one he has in truth? Receive of him what | God has given him for you, not what you tried to give yourself. |
| Tx:22.27 | circle that extends forever is your holy relationship, beloved of | God Himself. How still it rests, in time and yet beyond, immortal yet |
| Tx:22.28 | you to remain in misery? Heaven is the home of perfect purity, and | God created it for you. Look on your holy brother, sinless as |
| Tx:22.43 | To all who share the love of | God, the grace is given to be the givers of what they have received. |
| Tx:22.47 | are nothing. In truth you stand together with nothing in between. | God holds your hands, and what can separate whom He has joined as one |
| Tx:22.47 | would defend against. Yet it remains impossible to keep love out. | God rests with you in quiet, undefended and wholly undefending, for |
| Tx:22.48 | one? Which is the stronger? Is it this tiny mouse or everything that | God created? You are not joined together by this mouse but by the |
| Tx:22.48 | You are not joined together by this mouse but by the Will of | God. And can a mouse betray whom God has joined? |
| Tx:22.48 | by this mouse but by the Will of God. And can a mouse betray whom | God has joined? |
| Tx:22.53 | think how He can change the role of means and end so easily in what | God loves and would have free forever. But be you rather grateful |
| Tx:22.57 | a mistake—a shadow through which you walk completely undismayed? | God would let nothing interfere with those whose wills are His[. And |
| Tx:22.59 | it nor limit it in any way. He will join to it all the power that | God has given Him to make each little gift of love a source of |
| Tx:22.60 | that would deny the power of your will. Think you the Will of | God is powerless? Is this humility? You do not see what this belief |
| Tx:22.60 | for here lies buried the heavy anchor that seems to keep the fear of | God in place, unmovable and solid as a rock. While this remains, so |
| Tx:22.61 | Who can attack the Son of | God and not attack his Father? How can God's Son be weak and frail |
| Tx:22.62 | If you were one with | God and recognized this oneness, you would know His power is yours. |
| Tx:23.1 | the belief in weakness, and what is weak is not the Will of | God. Being opposed to it, it is its “enemy.” And God is feared as an |
| Tx:23.1 | is not the Will of God. Being opposed to it, it is its “enemy.” And | God is feared as an opposing will. |
| Tx:23.7 | The memory of | God comes to the quiet mind. It cannot come where there is conflict, |
| Tx:23.7 | you identify with it? Surely you realize the ego is at war with | God. Certain it is it has no enemy. Yet just as certain is its fixed |
| Tx:23.8 | Do you not realize a war against yourself would be a war on | God? Is victory conceivable? And if it were, is this a victory that |
| Tx:23.8 | And if it were, is this a victory that you would want? The death of | God, if it were possible, would be your death. Is this a victory? The |
| Tx:23.8 | to defeat because it thinks that triumph over you is possible. And | God thinks otherwise. This is no war—only the mad belief the Will |
| Tx:23.8 | thinks otherwise. This is no war—only the mad belief the Will of | God can be attacked and overthrown. You may identify with this |
| Tx:23.9 | Be certain that it is impossible | God and the ego, or yourself and it, will ever meet. You seem to meet |
| Tx:23.10 | before your sight into the giver of your peace. Your “enemy” was | God Himself, to Whom all conflict, triumph, and attack of any kind |
| Tx:23.10 | He loves you perfectly, completely, and eternally. The Son of | God at war with his Creator is a condition as ridiculous as nature |
| Tx:23.11 | apart. The war against yourself was undertaken to teach the Son of | God that he is not himself and not his Father's Son. For this, the |
| Tx:23.13 | What you remember is a part of you. For you must be as | God created you. Truth does not fight against illusions, nor do |
| Tx:23.13 | radiant, apart from conflict, untouched and quiet in the peace of | God. |
| Tx:23.14 | with each other. And this occurs whenever you look on anything that | God created with anything but love. Conflict is fearful, for it is |
| Tx:23.14 | madness be undone for you and turn in peace to the remembrance of | God, still shining in your quiet mind. |
| Tx:23.16 | let forgiveness sweep away all trace of the belief in sin that keeps | God homeless and His Son with Him. You are not strangers in the house |
| Tx:23.16 | homeless and His Son with Him. You are not strangers in the house of | God. Welcome your brother to the home where God has set him in |
| Tx:23.16 | in the house of God. Welcome your brother to the home where | God has set him in serenity and peace and dwells with him. Illusions |
| Tx:23.17 | How can the resting-place of | God turn on itself and seek to overcome the One Who dwells there? And |
| Tx:23.17 | the One Who dwells there? And think what happens when the house of | God perceives itself divided. The altar disappears, the light grows |
| Tx:23.18 | be; where either goes the other disappears. So is the memory of | God obscured in minds that have become illusion's battleground. Yet |
| Tx:23.22 | is thus interpreted as an irrevocable sentence upon himself, which | God Himself is powerless to overcome. Sin cannot be remitted, being |
| Tx:23.22 | to overcome. Sin cannot be remitted, being the belief the Son of | God can make mistakes for which his own destruction becomes |
| Tx:23.23 | join. One becomes weak, the other strong by his defeat. And fear of | God and of each other now appears as sensible, made real by what the |
| Tx:23.23 | of each other now appears as sensible, made real by what the Son of | God has done both to himself and his Creator. The arrogance on which |
| Tx:23.24 | third preposterous belief that seems to make chaos eternal. For if | God cannot be mistaken, then He must accept his Son's belief in what |
| Tx:23.25 | See how the fear of | God is reinforced by this third principle. Now it becomes impossible |
| Tx:23.25 | attack. And now is conflict made inevitable and beyond the help of | God. And now salvation must remain impossible because the savior has |
| Tx:23.26 | thus becomes a myth, and vengeance, not forgiveness, is the Will of | God. From where all this begins, there is no sight of help that can |
| Tx:23.26 | of help that can succeed. Only destruction can be the outcome. And | God Himself seems to be siding with it to overcome His Son. Think not |
| Tx:23.31 | your brother cease his attack on you for what you stole. Nor will | God end His vengeance upon both, for in His madness He must have this |
| Tx:23.32 | the laws of chaos serve. These are the means by which the laws of | God appear to be reversed. Here do the laws of sin appear to hold |
| Tx:23.33 | Give thanks unto the hero on love's throne, who saved the Son of | God for fear and death! |
| Tx:23.37 | There is no life outside of Heaven. Where | God created life, there life must be. In any state apart from Heaven, |
| Tx:23.42 | charitable it may seem to be, a blessing and a sign the Voice for | God speaks through you to your brother? The wrapping does not make |
| Tx:23.47 | The fear of | God is fear of life and not of death. Yet He remains the only place |
| Tx:23.49 | God does not share His function with a body. He gave the function to | |
| Tx:23.50 | The lovely light of your relationship is like the love of | God. It cannot yet assume the holy function God gave His Son, for |
| Tx:23.50 | is like the love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy function | God gave His Son, for your forgiveness of one another is not complete |
| Tx:23.52 | place on high but quickly choose a miracle instead of murder. And | God Himself and all the lights of Heaven will gently lean to you and |
| Tx:23.52 | where He would have you, and no illusion can attack the peace of | God together with His Son. |
| Tx:23.55 | Those with the strength of | God in their awareness could never think of battle. What could they |
| Tx:23.55 | that offers less, yet could be wanted more? Who with the love of | God upholding him could find the choice of miracles or murder hard to |
| Tx:24.1 | Given this state the mind is quiet, and the condition in which | God is remembered is attained. It is not necessary to tell Him what |
| Tx:24.1 | a shadow can hold back the Will that holds the universe secure? | God does not wait upon illusions to let Him be Himself. No more His |
| Tx:24.2 | and freedom sinlessness. There is no substitute for peace. What | God creates has no alternative. The truth arises from what He knows. |
| Tx:24.6 | What | God created cannot be attacked, for there is nothing in the universe |
| Tx:24.8 | not cut off from one another. What you keep is lost to you. | God gave you both Himself, and to remember this is now the only |
| Tx:24.10 | The fear of | God and of each other comes from each unrecognized belief in |
| Tx:24.10 | For each demands the other bow to it against his will. And | God Himself must honor it or suffer vengeance. Every twinge of malice |
| Tx:24.11 | the truth. For what is specialness but an attack upon the Will of | God? You love your brother not while it is this you would defend |
| Tx:24.13 | goal that would defeat salvation and thus run counter to the Will of | God. To value specialness is to esteem an alien will to which |
| Tx:24.15 | answers? Its tiny answer, soundless in the melody which pours from | God to you eternally in loving praise of what you are, is all you |
| Tx:24.15 | strain your ears to hear its soundless voice, and yet the Call of | God Himself is soundless to you. |
| Tx:24.16 | can defend your specialness, but never will you hear the Voice for | God beside it. They speak a different language and they fall on |
| Tx:24.17 | The shining radiance of the Son of | God—so like his Father that the memory of Him springs instantly to |
| Tx:24.17 | Is it a sacrifice to give up nothing and to receive the love of | God forever? |
| Tx:24.19 | attack you thought you made on him has taken from him the gift that | God would have him give to you. His need to give it is as great as |
| Tx:24.19 | for your forgiveness only that he may return it unto you. It is not | God Who has condemned His Son. But only you, to save his specialness |
| Tx:24.20 | to falter now. Just one step more and every vestige of the fear of | God will melt away in love. Your brother's specialness and yours are |
| Tx:24.20 | illusions which have reached this final obstacle that seems to make | God and His Heaven so remote that they cannot be reached. Here in |
| Tx:24.21 | of himself as part of you, as you for his. You are alike to | God as God is to Himself. He is not special, for He would not keep |
| Tx:24.21 | of himself as part of you, as you for his. You are alike to God as | God is to Himself. He is not special, for He would not keep one part |
| Tx:24.22 | Give him but what he has, remembering | God gave Himself to both of you in equal love that both might share |
| Tx:24.22 | to him and him to you because He gave Himself. What is the same as | God is one with Him. And only specialness could make the truth of God |
| Tx:24.22 | as God is one with Him. And only specialness could make the truth of | God and you as one seem anything but Heaven and the hope of peace at |
| Tx:24.24 | The hope of specialness makes it seem possible | God made the body as the prison-house which keeps His Son from Him. |
| Tx:24.24 | which keeps His Son from Him. For it demands a special place | God cannot enter and a hiding-place where none is welcome but your |
| Tx:24.24 | safe from all intrusions of sanity upon illusions, safe from | God, and safe for conflict everlasting. Here are the gates of hell |
| Tx:24.24 | rule in madness and in loneliness your special kingdom, apart from | God, away from truth and from salvation. |
| Tx:24.25 | The key you threw away | God gave your brother, whose holy hands would offer it to you when |
| Tx:24.25 | from an illusion of what you are to the acceptance of yourself as | God created you. |
| Tx:24.27 | strongly defended with all your puny might against the Will of | God. And thus it stands against yourself; your enemy, not God's. So |
| Tx:24.27 | your enemy, not God's. So does it seem to split you off from | God and make you separate from Him as its defender. You would protect |
| Tx:24.27 | make you separate from Him as its defender. You would protect what | God created not. And yet this idol that seems to give you power has |
| Tx:24.29 | Without foundation nothing is secure. Would | God have left His Son in such a state, where safety has no meaning? |
| Tx:24.29 | more be unforgiving, for that is what it is—a secret vow that what | God wants for you will never be and that you will oppose His Will |
| Tx:24.30 | God asks for your forgiveness. He would have no separation, like an | |
| Tx:24.30 | to them and left behind. Salvation challenges not even death. And | God Himself, Who knows that death is not your will, must say, “Thy |
| Tx:24.32 | They hate the call that would awaken them, and they curse | God because He did not make their dream reality. Curse God and die, |
| Tx:24.32 | they curse God because He did not make their dream reality. Curse | God and die, but not by Him Who made not death, but only in the |
| Tx:24.32 | but only in the dream. Open your eyes a little; see the savior | God gave to you that you might look on him and give him back his |
| Tx:24.33 | The slaves of specialness will yet be free. Such is the Will of | God and of His Son. Would God condemn Himself to hell and to |
| Tx:24.33 | will yet be free. Such is the Will of God and of His Son. Would | God condemn Himself to hell and to damnation? And do you will that |
| Tx:24.33 | to damnation? And do you will that this be done unto your savior? | God calls to you from him to join His Will to save you both from |
| Tx:24.33 | of nails upon his hands that he holds out for your forgiveness. | God asks your mercy on His Son and on Himself. Deny them not. They |
| Tx:24.39 | Do not defend this senseless dream in which | God is bereft of what He loves and you remain beyond salvation. Only |
| Tx:24.39 | what you appointed to be your savior and crucified the one whom | God has given you instead. So are you bound with him, for you are |
| Tx:24.45 | leads you there in gentleness and blessing all the way. His love for | God replaces all the fear you thought you saw within yourself. His |
| Tx:24.45 | and loves. And seeks it still, that each might offer you the love of | God. |
| Tx:24.49 | scatter with the wind and turn to dust. In him is your assurance | God is here and with you now. While he is what he is, you can be sure |
| Tx:24.49 | here and with you now. While he is what he is, you can be sure that | God is knowable and will be known to you. For He could never leave |
| Tx:24.50 | Without you there would be a lack in | God, a Heaven incomplete, a Son without a Father. There could be no |
| Tx:24.50 | a Father. There could be no universe and no reality. For what | God wills is whole and part of Him because His Will is One. Nothing |
| Tx:24.50 | is but is alive in Him. Your brother's holiness shows you that | God is one with him and you—that what he has is yours because you |
| Tx:24.51 | Nothing is lost to you in all the universe. Nothing that | God created has He failed to lay before you lovingly as yours |
| Tx:24.51 | conceived of you before the world began and as He knows you still. | God changes not His Mind about His Son with passing circumstance, |
| Tx:24.53 | that is made, not of itself, but through the Voice that speaks for | God in everything that lives and shares His Being. |
| Tx:24.54 | the face of Christ from him, and you as well. And let the fear of | God no longer hold the vision you were meant to see from you. Your |
| Tx:24.55 | is but a body? Where is your peace but in his holiness? And where is | God Himself but in that part of Him He set forever in your brother's |
| Tx:24.58 | see him not as prisoner to them. It cannot be what governs part of | God holds not for all the rest. You place yourself under the laws you |
| Tx:24.58 | the laws you see as ruling him. Think, then, how great the love of | God for you must be that He has given you a part of Him to save from |
| Tx:24.58 | doubt but that your specialness will disappear before the Will of | God, Who loves each part of Him with equal love [and care]. The |
| Tx:24.60 | —with little effort and with little time and with the power of | God maintaining it and promising success. Yet of the two, it is this |
| Tx:24.60 | do you deem this cost too heavy. But a tiny willingness, a nod to | God, a greeting to the Christ in you, you find a burden wearisome and |
| Tx:24.60 | too heavy to be borne. Yet to the dedication to the truth as | God established it no sacrifice is asked, no strain called forth, and |
| Tx:24.62 | who are son to you, that you might share the Fatherhood of | God, not snatch it from Him. What is this son that you have made to |
| Tx:24.62 | takes the place of yours? And where are they, now that the host of | God has found another son which he prefers to them? |
| Tx:24.63 | The memory of | God shines not alone. What is within your brother still contains all |
| Tx:24.67 | the purpose which you serve. Here you are but means, along with it. | God is a Means as well as End. In Heaven, means and end are one, and |
| Tx:24.72 | separates each from all aspects with a different purpose. The Son of | God retains His Father's Will. The son of man perceives an alien will |
| Tx:25.2 | He is. The son of man is not the risen Christ. Yet does the Son of | God abide exactly where he is and walks with him within his holiness, |
| Tx:25.7 | You are the means for | God—not separate nor with a life apart from His. His Life is |
| Tx:25.9 | still is one with both the Father and the Son, He knows the Will of | God and what you really will. But this is understood by mind |
| Tx:25.16 | your brother as a body, it is but this you do. The masterpiece that | God has set within this frame is all there is to see. The body holds |
| Tx:25.16 | body holds it for a while without obscuring it in any way. Yet what | God has created needs no frame, for what He has created He supports |
| Tx:25.17 | The Holy Spirit is the frame | God set around the part of Him that you would see as separate. Yet |
| Tx:25.17 | the picture when you choose to see it in its place. The frame that | God has given it but serves His purpose, not yours apart from His. It |
| Tx:25.17 | that obscures the picture and cherishes the frame instead of it. Yet | God has set His masterpiece within a frame that will endure forever |
| Tx:25.17 | dust. But think you not the picture is destroyed in any way. What | God creates is safe from all corruption, unchanged and perfect in |
| Tx:25.18 | this face was ever darkened because you saw it in a frame of death. | God kept it safe that you might look on it and see the holiness that |
| Tx:25.19 | upon in him. He is the frame in which your holiness is set, and what | God gave him must be given you. However much he overlooks the |
| Tx:25.20 | known to you His love if you but share His praise of what He loves? | God cherishes creation as the perfect Father that He is. And so His |
| Tx:25.20 | happiness complete and theirs along with His. The gratitude of | God Himself is freely offered to everyone who shares His purpose. It |
| Tx:25.22 | You are the same, as | God Himself is one and not divided in His Will. And you must have one |
| Tx:25.26 | maintained without some link that kept it still within the laws of | God; not as the law itself upholds the universe as God created it, |
| Tx:25.26 | the laws of God; not as the law itself upholds the universe as | God created it, but in some form adapted to the need the Son of God |
| Tx:25.26 | as God created it, but in some form adapted to the need the Son of | God believes he has. Corrected error is the error's end. And thus has |
| Tx:25.26 | believes he has. Corrected error is the error's end. And thus has | God protected still His Son, even in error. There is another purpose |
| Tx:25.31 | The Son of | God could never sin, but he can wish for what would hurt him. And he |
| Tx:25.33 | and of joy. Even in Heaven does this law obtain. The Son of | God creates to bring him joy, sharing his Father's purpose in his own |
| Tx:25.35 | Would you not do this for the love of | God? And for yourself? For think what it would do for you. Your |
| Tx:25.36 | and its loveliness for you. What aim can supersede the Will of | God and of His Son that Heaven be restored to him for whom it was |
| Tx:25.37 | to attack is gone, and so there is no reason to perceive the Son of | God as other than he is. The need for guilt is gone because it has no |
| Tx:25.38 | Attack makes Christ your enemy and | God along with Him. Must you not be afraid with “enemies” like these? |
| Tx:25.38 | the wish and leave him innocent? And who would see the Son of | God as innocent and wish him dead? Christ stands before you both each |
| Tx:25.39 | And yet beneath the ego's senseless shrieks, such is the call that | God has given him that you might hear in him His Call to you and |
| Tx:25.39 | you might hear in him His Call to you and answer by returning unto | God what is His own. |
| Tx:25.40 | The Son of | God asks only this of you—that you return to him what is his due |
| Tx:25.40 | him of all the joy he would have found if he fulfilled the role | God gave to him. But think not Heaven is lost to him alone. Nor can |
| Tx:25.41 | will be your joy, when he is free to offer you the gift of sight | God gave to him for you! He has no need but this—that you allow him |
| Tx:25.41 | no need but this—that you allow him freedom to complete the task | God gave to him. Remembering but this—that what he does you do |
| Tx:25.41 | will have for you until you see him differently and let him be what | God appointed that he be to you. |
| Tx:25.42 | Against the hatred that the Son of | God may cherish toward himself is God believed to be without the |
| Tx:25.42 | Against the hatred that the Son of God may cherish toward himself is | God believed to be without the power to save what He created from the |
| Tx:25.42 | created from the pain of hell. But in the love he shows himself is | God made free to let His Will be done. In each of you, you see the |
| Tx:25.42 | of you, you see the picture of your own belief in what the Will of | God must be for you. In your forgiveness will you understand His love |
| Tx:25.43 | The grace of | God rests gently on forgiving eyes, and everything they look on |
| Tx:25.43 | For he would only heal and only bless. And being in accord with what | God wills, he has the power to heal and bless all those he looks on |
| Tx:25.43 | the power to heal and bless all those he looks on with the grace of | God upon his sight. |
| Tx:25.44 | maintain he wants to see? The wish to see calls down the grace of | God upon your eyes and brings the gift of light that makes sight |
| Tx:25.45 | Will you behold your brother? | God is glad to have you look on him. He does not will your savior be |
| Tx:25.47 | Here, where the laws of | God do not prevail in perfect form, can he yet do one perfect thing |
| Tx:25.48 | as he always did. The specialness he chose to hurt himself did | God appoint to be the means for his salvation from the very instant |
| Tx:25.49 | All that you made can serve salvation easily and well. The Son of | God can make no choice the Holy Spirit cannot employ on his behalf |
| Tx:25.49 | you see it as your special function in the plan to save the Son of | God from all attack and let him understand that he is safe, as he has |
| Tx:25.50 | foundation sure as love, dependable as Heaven, and as strong as | God Himself. The world is safe from love to everyone who thinks sin |
| Tx:25.50 | who thinks sin possible. Nor will it change. Yet is it possible what | God created not should share the attributes of His creation when it |
| Tx:25.51 | If you could realize nothing is changeless but the Will of | God, this course would not be difficult for you. For it is this that |
| Tx:25.52 | before and think of it more carefully. It must be so that either | God is mad or is this world a place of madness. Not one Thought of |
| Tx:25.52 | If one belief so deeply valued here were true, then every Thought | God ever had is an illusion. And if but one Thought of His is true, |
| Tx:25.52 | it is not. For only this decision can you make. The rest is up to | God and not to you. |
| Tx:25.53 | the world upholds is to deny your Father's sanity and yours. For | God and His beloved Son do not think differently. And it is the |
| Tx:25.54 | And one in which nothing is contradicted that would lead the Son of | God to sanity and joy. Nothing attests to death and cruelty, to |
| Tx:25.56 | Your special function is the special form in which the fact that | God is not insane appears most sensible and meaningful to you. The |
| Tx:25.56 | place and time and all that you believe must limit you. The Son of | God cannot be bound by time nor place nor anything God did not will. |
| Tx:25.56 | you. The Son of God cannot be bound by time nor place nor anything | God did not will. Yet if His Will is seen as madness, then the form |
| Tx:25.57 | to entrust salvation to the insane. Because He is not mad has | God appointed One as sane as He to raise a saner world to meet the |
| Tx:25.60 | The whole belief that someone loses but reflects the underlying tenet | God must be insane. For in this world, it seems that one must gain |
| Tx:25.60 | that one must gain because another lost. If this were true, then | God is mad indeed! But what is this belief except a form of the more |
| Tx:25.60 | be the total cost of any gain at all. You who believe that | God is mad, look carefully at this and understand that it must be |
| Tx:25.60 | look carefully at this and understand that it must be that either | God or this must be insane, but hardly both. |
| Tx:25.62 | insanity would make you sane and give you what you want. That either | God or you must lose to madness because your aims can not be |
| Tx:25.62 | is not maintained at any cost. No one can suffer for the Will of | God to be fulfilled. Salvation is His Will because you share it. Not |
| Tx:25.62 | you share it. Not for you alone but for the Self which is the Son of | God. He cannot lose, for if he could, the loss would be his Father's, |
| Tx:25.66 | by being paid, it matters not by whom. Can this be justice? | God knows not of this. But justice does He know and knows it well. |
| Tx:25.68 | entail. And so they fear the Holy Spirit and perceive the “wrath” of | God in Him. [They are unjust indeed to Him.] Nor can they trust Him |
| Tx:25.68 | depends on sin's stability. And they perceive the “threat” of what | God knows as justice to be more destructive to themselves and to |
| Tx:25.72 | you. He knows that Heaven is richer made by each one you accept. And | God rejoices as His Son receives what loving justice knows to be his |
| Tx:25.72 | the same does mercy stand at God's right hand and give the Son of | God the power to forgive himself of sin. |
| Tx:25.73 | all the holiness that is in him, however much he recognize it not. | God knows of no injustice. He would not allow His Son be judged by |
| Tx:25.73 | and not against his life? No justice would be given him by you. Yet | God ensured that justice would be done unto the Son He loves and |
| Tx:25.75 | of love and justice if you understand it is impossible the Son of | God could merit vengeance. You need not perceive in every |
| Tx:25.77 | sin, and to the life eternal, joyous and complete in every way, as | God appointed for His holy Son. This is the only justice Heaven |
| Tx:25.77 | love is just and can perceive what justice must accord the Son of | God. Let love decide and never fear that you in your unfairness will |
| Tx:25.79 | as it is given out. Each gift [received] but adds to the supply. For | God is fair. He does not fight against His Son's reluctance to |
| Tx:25.80 | least is seen unfairly. Thus is justice not accorded to the Son of | God. When anyone is seen as losing, he has been condemned. And |
| Tx:25.82 | on justice. Not as it is seen through this world's eyes, but as | God knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight the Holy |
| Tx:26.4 | demands that they be separate and without the other. The memory of | God must be denied if any sacrifice is asked of anyone. What witness |
| Tx:26.7 | life to you, who cannot die because his sinlessness is known to | God and can no more be sacrificed by you than can the light in you be |
| Tx:26.7 | of life and make your eyes and ears bear witness to the death of | God and of His holy Son, think not that you have power to make of |
| Tx:26.7 | of His holy Son, think not that you have power to make of them what | God willed not they be. In Heaven God's Son is not imprisoned in a |
| Tx:26.9 | is the Holy Spirit's special function but to release the holy Son of | God from the imprisonment he made to keep himself from justice? Could |
| Tx:26.11 | and could result in gain for anyone. If this were true, then | God would be unfair, sin would be possible, attack be justified, and |
| Tx:26.12 | the rest. Think not the limits you impose on what you see can limit | God in any way. |
| Tx:26.13 | errors. Every problem is an error. It does injustice to the Son of | God and therefore is not true. The Holy Spirit does not evaluate |
| Tx:26.13 | have no properties to Him. They are mistakes from which the Son of | God is suffering, but needlessly. And so He takes the thorns and |
| Tx:26.14 | is total. There is no such thing as partial justice. If the Son of | God is guilty, then is he condemned, and he deserves no mercy from |
| Tx:26.14 | is guilty, then is he condemned, and he deserves no mercy from the | God of justice. But ask not God to punish him because you find him |
| Tx:26.14 | and he deserves no mercy from the God of justice. But ask not | God to punish him because you find him guilty and would have him die. |
| Tx:26.14 | to punish him because you find him guilty and would have him die. | God offers you the means to see his innocence. Would it be fair to |
| Tx:26.15 | If | God is just, then can there be no problems that justice cannot solve. |
| Tx:26.16 | universal blessing. Sacrifice is gone. And in its place the love of | God can be remembered and will shine away all memory of sacrifice and |
| Tx:26.17 | God cannot be remembered until justice is loved instead of feared. He | |
| Tx:26.18 | Complexity is not of | God. How could it be, when all He knows is one? He knows of one |
| Tx:26.21 | Nothing the Son of | God believes can be destroyed. But what is truth to him must be |
| Tx:26.28 | no little miracles to lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the Son of | God Himself comes to receive each gift that brings him nearer to his |
| Tx:26.29 | be the joy in Heaven when you join the mighty chorus to the love of | God! |
| Tx:26.32 | God gave His Teacher to replace the one you made, not to conflict | |
| Tx:26.32 | that tiny instant time was gone, for that was all it ever was. What | God gave Answer to is answered and is gone. |
| Tx:26.34 | disappeared too quickly to affect the simple knowledge of the Son of | God can hardly still be there for you to choose to be your teacher. |
| Tx:26.37 | want that fearful instant kept, when Heaven seemed to disappear and | God was feared and made a symbol of your hate? |
| Tx:26.38 | been so long ago corrected and undone. Can sin withstand the Will of | God? Can it be up to you to see the past and put it in the present? |
| Tx:26.39 | Would | God allow His Son to lose his way along a road long since a memory of |
| Tx:26.40 | The Son that | God created is as free as God created him. He was reborn the instant |
| Tx:26.40 | The Son that God created is as free as | God created him. He was reborn the instant that he chose to die |
| Tx:26.40 | you not forgive him now because he made an error in the past that | God remembers not and is not there? Now you are shifting back and |
| Tx:26.41 | This terrible illusion was denied in but the time it took for | God to give His answer to illusion for all time and every |
| Tx:26.43 | that lies at Heaven's gate. There is no hindrance to the Will of | God nor any need that you repeat again a journey that was over long |
| Tx:26.45 | worthy of God's Son, nor one with which he could remain content. Yet | God has given him a better Friend in Whom all power in earth and |
| Tx:26.45 | not another friend to take His place. There is no other friend. What | God appointed has no substitute, for what illusion can replace the |
| Tx:26.46 | with shadows is alone indeed, and loneliness is not the Will of | God. Would you allow one shadow to usurp the throne that God |
| Tx:26.46 | the Will of God. Would you allow one shadow to usurp the throne that | God appointed for your Friend if you but realized its emptiness has |
| Tx:26.46 | friend, for if you do, it can but take the place of Him whom | God has called your Friend. And it is He who is your only Friend in |
| Tx:26.48 | but in the world of shadows and illusions built on sin. The Son of | God perceives what he would see, because perception is a wish |
| Tx:26.49 | of knowledge is not true of anything that is apart from it. Yet has | God given answer to the world of sickness which applies to all its |
| Tx:26.49 | though it operates in time where it is needed. Yet because it is of | God, the laws of time do not affect its workings. It is in this |
| Tx:26.51 | one is true in any way, and all must yield with equal ease to what | God gave as answer to them all. God's Will is One. And any wish that |
| Tx:26.52 | all creation be subjected to the laws of two opposing powers until | God becomes impatient, splits the world apart, and relegates attack |
| Tx:26.56 | is no sin. And every miracle is possible the instant that the Son of | God perceives his wishes and the Will of God are one. |
| Tx:26.56 | the instant that the Son of God perceives his wishes and the Will of | God are one. |
| Tx:26.57 | What is the Will of | God? He wills His Son have everything. And this He guaranteed when He |
| Tx:26.57 | the miracle by which creation became your function, sharing it with | God. It is not understood apart from Him and therefore has no meaning |
| Tx:26.58 | Here does the Son of | God ask not too much but far too little. He would sacrifice his own |
| Tx:26.60 | Cause and effect are one, not separate. | God wills you learn what always has been true—that He created you |
| Tx:26.60 | For never will success be possible in trying to deceive the Son of | God. |
| Tx:26.62 | their purpose, they derive whatever meaning that they seem to have. | God gave to all illusions that were made another purpose that would |
| Tx:26.62 | whatever form they took. In every miracle all healing lies, for | God gave answer to them all as one. And what is one to Him must be |
| Tx:26.62 | what is the same is different, you but deceive yourself. What | God calls one will be forever one, not separate. His Kingdom is |
| Tx:26.63 | calls for his release and yours. Heaven is shining on the Son of | God. Deny him not, that you may be released. Each instant is the Son |
| Tx:26.63 | Deny him not, that you may be released. Each instant is the Son of | God reborn, until he chooses not to die again. In every wish to hurt, |
| Tx:26.64 | name of love. To you to whom it has been given to save the Son of | God from crucifixion and from hell and death, all glory be forever. |
| Tx:26.64 | death, all glory be forever. For you have power to save the Son of | God because his Father willed that it be so. And in your hands does |
| Tx:26.65 | To use the power | God has given you as He would have it used is natural. It is not |
| Tx:26.65 | choose a little senseless wish instead of what He wills. The gift of | God to you is limitless. There is no circumstance it cannot answer |
| Tx:26.66 | Abide in peace, where | God would have you be, and be the means whereby your brother finds |
| Tx:26.66 | one of us can save us all. There is no difference among the Sons of | God. The unity that specialness denies will save them all, for what |
| Tx:26.67 | to everyone, as theirs to you. Call on your brother's name and | God will answer, for on Him you call. Could He refuse to answer when |
| Tx:26.67 | And by this little gift of truth but let to be itself—the Son of | God allowed to be himself and all creation freed to call upon the |
| Tx:26.67 | to be himself and all creation freed to call upon the Name of | God as one. |
| Tx:26.73 | You have been told that everything brings good that comes from | God. And yet it seems as if this is not so. Good in disaster's form |
| Tx:26.77 | Think but how holy you must be from whom the Voice for | God calls lovingly unto your brother, that you may awake in him the |
| Tx:26.77 | with his freedom joined! However much you wish he be condemned, | God is in him. And never will you know He is in you as well, while |
| Tx:26.78 | your brother and yourself obscures the face of Christ and memory of | God. And would you trade Them for an ancient hate? The ground whereon |
| Tx:26.84 | Now is the temple of the Living | God rebuilt as host again to Him by Whom it was created. Where He |
| Tx:26.84 | replace an ancient enmity that came to kill. In gentle gratitude do | God the Father and the Son return to what is Theirs and will forever |
| Tx:26.86 | your own and equally belongs to every living thing along with you. | God limits not. And what is limited can not be Heaven. So it must be |
| Tx:26.87 | it is you who ask this of yourself in deep injustice to the Son of | God. You have no enemy except yourself, and you are enemy indeed to |
| Tx:26.88 | to get? Is it not retribution for your own attack upon the Son of | God you seek? Is it not safer to believe that you are innocent of |
| Tx:27.32 | enhance the invitation's real appeal. For what you leave as vacant, | God will fill, and where He is, there must the truth abide. |
| Tx:27.34 | it represents remains unknown but is not canceled out. And thus is | God left free to take the final step Himself. [For this you need no |
| Tx:27.36 | answer anything at all, for conflict has no limited effects. Yet if | God gave an answer, there must be a way in which your problems are |
| Tx:27.37 | be that in your state of mind solution is impossible. Therefore, | God must have given you a way of reaching to another state of mind in |
| Tx:27.53 | cannot be understood by merely counting up its separate parts. | God thanks you for your healing, for He knows it is a gift of love |
| Tx:27.56 | And otherwise he lies, if you should call him by the holy Name of | God Himself. |
| Tx:27.57 | what you believe it holds within. Nor could it tell a part of | God Himself what it should feel and what its function is. Yet must He |
| Tx:27.60 | as powerless. The purpose of a miracle is to accomplish this. And | God Himself has guaranteed the strength of miracles for what they |
| Tx:27.73 | his suffering was healed and where his brother was his friend.] | God willed he waken gently and with joy. And gave him means to waken |
| Tx:27.82 | where all is one, there crept a tiny mad idea at which the Son of | God remembered not to laugh. In his forgetting did the thought become |
| Tx:27.83 | A timelessness in which is time made real; a part of | God which can attack itself; a separate brother as an enemy; a mind |
| Tx:27.85 | you come in tears, but hear Him say, “My brother, Holy Son of | God, behold your idle dream in which this could occur,” and you will |
| Tx:28.2 | like perception, is a skill made up by you to take the place of what | God gave in your creation. And like all the things you made, it can |
| Tx:28.4 | The Holy Spirit can indeed make use of memory, for | God Himself is there. Yet this is not a memory of past events, but |
| Tx:28.10 | His Will. What your remembering would witness to is but the fear of | God. He has not done the thing you fear. No more have you. And so |
| Tx:28.11 | minds and bringing them an instant's stillness when the memory of | God returns to them. Their own remembering is quiet now, and what has |
| Tx:28.12 | is His memory allowed to offer all its treasures to the Son of | God, for whom they have been kept. How gladly does He offer them unto |
| Tx:28.12 | enter where They would abide. For in that instant does the Son of | God do nothing that would make himself afraid. |
| Tx:28.13 | How instantly the memory of | God arises in the mind that has no fear to keep the memory away. Its |
| Tx:28.13 | and undone. The stillness speaks in gentle sounds of love the Son of | God remembers from before his own remembering came in between the |
| Tx:28.14 | Now is the Son of | God at last aware of present Cause and Its benign effects. Now does |
| Tx:28.15 | to see the causeless not? And where is sacrifice, when memory of | God has come to take the place of loss? What better way to close the |
| Tx:28.15 | little gap between illusions and reality than to allow the memory of | God to flow across it, making it a bridge an instant will suffice to |
| Tx:28.15 | it, making it a bridge an instant will suffice to reach beyond? For | God has closed it with Himself. His memory has not gone by and left a |
| Tx:28.16 | because he is God's Son that he must also be a father who creates as | God created him. The circle of creation has no end. Its starting and |
| Tx:28.18 | Always in sickness does the Son of | God attempt to make himself his cause and not allow himself to be his |
| Tx:28.30 | kept carefully protected, cherished, and upheld by firm belief, lest | God should come to bridge the little gap that leads to Him. Fight not |
| Tx:28.33 | God builds the bridge, but only in the space left clean and vacant by | |
| Tx:28.34 | are you who live within the world except a picture of the Son of | God in broken pieces, each concealed within a separate and uncertain |
| Tx:28.44 | Holy Spirit's function is to take the broken picture of the Son of | God and put the pieces into place again. This holy picture, healed |
| Tx:28.45 | For the whole is in each one. And every aspect of the Son of | God is just the same as every other part. |
| Tx:28.46 | sickness when he has received the simple happiness of health? What | God has given cannot be a loss, and what is not of Him has no |
| Tx:28.47 | is sickness separating off the self from good and keeping evil in. | God is the alternate to dreams of fear. Who shares in them can never |
| Tx:28.47 | Except you share it, nothing can exist. And you exist because | God shared His Will with you, that His creation might create. |
| Tx:28.51 | What is there | God created to be sick? And what that He created not can be? Let not |
| Tx:28.59 | that you make with him because it is the one which he has made to | God, as God has made to him. God keeps His promises; His Son keeps |
| Tx:28.59 | you make with him because it is the one which he has made to God, as | God has made to him. God keeps His promises; His Son keeps his. In |
| Tx:28.59 | it is the one which he has made to God, as God has made to him. | God keeps His promises; His Son keeps his. In his creation did his |
| Tx:28.59 | that he replied “I will,” though in that promise he was born. Yet | God reminds him of it every time he does not share a promise to be |
| Tx:28.59 | healed and unified. His secret vows are powerless before the Will of | God, Whose promises he shares. And what he substitutes is not his |
| Tx:28.59 | he substitutes is not his will, who has made promise of himself to | God. |
| Tx:28.60 | God asks for nothing, and His Son, like Him, need ask for nothing. | |
| Tx:28.60 | there that he could want for something he has not. A space where | God is not, a gap between the Father and the Son is not the will of |
| Tx:28.61 | have with all your brothers is a part of you because it is a part of | God Himself. Are you not sick if you deny yourself your wholeness and |
| Tx:28.62 | not your home but merely as an aid to help you reach the home where | God abides. |
| Tx:29.1 | There is no time, no place, no state where | God is absent. There is nothing to be feared. There is no way in |
| Tx:29.2 | Here is the fear of | God most plainly seen. For love is treacherous to those who fear, |
| Tx:29.2 | who hates but is afraid of love and therefore must he be afraid of | God. Certain it is he knows not what love means. He fears to love and |
| Tx:29.3 | The fear of | God! The greatest obstacle that peace must flow across has not yet |
| Tx:29.9 | Nothing more than that, and nothing less. Without the fear of | God, what could induce you to abandon Him? What toys or trinkets in |
| Tx:29.9 | calling, were you not afraid to find a loss of self in finding | God? Yet can your Self be lost by being found? |
| Tx:29.10 | without a sacrifice or any loss, to find yourself in Heaven and in | God? Until you realize you give up nothing, until you understand |
| Tx:29.12 | of hatred and attack. No more is pain your friend and guilt your | god, and you should welcome the effects of love. |
| Tx:29.15 | Such is the promise of the living | God—His Son have life and every living thing be part of him, and |
| Tx:29.17 | it be more than this lies the idea of sickness. For it asks that | God be less than all He really is. What, then, becomes of you, for it |
| Tx:29.17 | lessened by the loss of you. And what is gone from Him becomes your | god, protecting you from being part of Him. |
| Tx:29.18 | The body that is asked to be a | god will be attacked because its nothingness has not been recognized. |
| Tx:29.19 | does he dwell in what was built as temple unto death. He lives in | God, and it is this that makes him savior unto you, and only this. |
| Tx:29.20 | he has, for giving is the proof of having. Only those who think that | God is lessened by their strength could fail to understand this must |
| Tx:29.21 | than just a tiny spark, a space of light created in the dark, where | God still shines. |
| Tx:29.22 | your dreams. And as you see him shining in the space of light where | God abides within the darkness, you will see that God Himself is |
| Tx:29.22 | of light where God abides within the darkness, you will see that | God Himself is where his body is. Before this light the body |
| Tx:29.24 | How holy are you, that the Son of | God can be your savior in the midst of dreams of desolation and |
| Tx:29.31 | place so still no sound except a hymn to Heaven rises up to gladden | God the Father and the Son. Where both abide are They remembered |
| Tx:29.32 | the might of its Creator; nothing can intrude upon the sacred Son of | God within. Here is the role the Holy Spirit gives to you who wait |
| Tx:29.32 | is the role the Holy Spirit gives to you who wait upon the Son of | God and would behold him waken and be glad. He is a part of you, and |
| Tx:29.33 | This sacred Son of | God is like yourself—the mirror of his Father's love for you, the |
| Tx:29.35 | be. For you would understand how great the cost of holding anything | God did not give in minds that can direct the hand to bless and lead |
| Tx:29.35 | want to be a friend to him, created by his Father as His home? If | God esteems him worthy of Himself, would you attack him with the |
| Tx:29.39 | Swear not to die, you holy Son of | God! You make a bargain that you cannot keep. The Son of Life cannot |
| Tx:29.40 | your mind and see another purpose there. Change is the greatest gift | God gave to all that you would make eternal, to ensure that only |
| Tx:29.41 | to die. You cannot change, because your function has been fixed by | God. All other goals are set in time and change that time might be |
| Tx:29.41 | And where it once held seeming sway is now restored the function | God established for His Son in full awareness. Time can set no end to |
| Tx:29.43 | can be no peace excepting there. Each idol that you worship when | God calls will never answer in His place. There is no other answer |
| Tx:29.48 | and happy. It is vain to worship idols in the hope of peace. | God dwells within, and your completion lies in Him. No idol takes His |
| Tx:29.50 | sad and sick by seeing idols there. Your holy minds are altars unto | God, and where He is, no idols can abide. The fear of God is but the |
| Tx:29.50 | altars unto God, and where He is, no idols can abide. The fear of | God is but the fear of loss of idols. It is not the fear of loss of |
| Tx:29.51 | sacrifice of death is nothing lost. An idol cannot take the place of | God. Let Him remind you of His love for you, and do not seek to drown |
| Tx:29.55 | Its form is nowhere, for its source abides within your mind, where | God abideth not. Where is this place where what is everywhere has |
| Tx:29.57 | the slaves of time. Here does the changeless change, the peace of | God, forever given to all living things, give way to chaos, and the |
| Tx:29.57 | given to all living things, give way to chaos, and the Son of | God, as perfect, sinless and as loving as his Father, come to hate a |
| Tx:29.58 | from what is endless, has no place to be. An idol is beyond where | God has set all things forever and has left no room for anything to |
| Tx:29.58 | to be except His Will. Nothing and nowhere must an idol be while | God is everything and everywhere. |
| Tx:29.60 | God has not many sons, but only One. Who can have more, and who be | |
| Tx:29.60 | Who can have more, and who be given less? In Heaven would the Son of | God but laugh if idols could intrude upon his peace. It is for him |
| Tx:29.60 | for idols which would make of Heaven less, to give you more than | God bestowed upon your brother and on you as one with Him? God gave |
| Tx:29.60 | more than God bestowed upon your brother and on you as one with Him? | God gave you all there is. And to be sure you could not lose it, did |
| Tx:29.60 | a part of you, as of Himself. No idol can establish you as more than | God. But you will never be content with being less. |
| Tx:29.61 | seek for power in the powerless. What happened to the holy Son of | God that this could be his wish—to let himself fall lower than the |
| Tx:29.61 | that it is not a dream. A dream of judgment came into the mind that | God created perfect as Himself. And in that dream was Heaven changed |
| Tx:29.61 | as Himself. And in that dream was Heaven changed to hell, and | God made enemy unto His Son. |
| Tx:29.63 | escape the penalty he laid upon himself within the dream he made. | God knows of justice, not of penalty. But in the dream of judgment, |
| Tx:29.68 | never left the altar which abides forever deep within the Son of | God. And when he hears this song again, he knows he never heard it |
| Tx:30.29 | yourself whatever you decide. For they are made with idols or with | God. And you ask help of Christ or anti-Christ, and which you choose |
| Tx:30.31 | some form of union, be it with a dream of judgment or the Voice for | God. Decisions cause results because they are not made in isolation. |
| Tx:30.33 | your knowledge, saved for you that you may do your will through Him. | God asks you do your will. He joins with you. He did not set His |
| Tx:30.33 | your glad consent, as you would have it be. And not one Thought that | God has ever had but waited for your blessing to be born. God is no |
| Tx:30.33 | that God has ever had but waited for your blessing to be born. | God is no enemy to you. He asks no more than that He hear you call |
| Tx:30.34 | freedom's name. Unless you do your will, you are not free. And would | God leave His Son without what he has chosen for himself? God but |
| Tx:30.34 | And would God leave His Son without what he has chosen for himself? | God but ensured that you would never lose your will when He gave you |
| Tx:30.34 | it now that you may be reminded of His love and learn your will. | God would not have His Son made prisoner to what he does not want. He |
| Tx:30.35 | the world, and thus the rule of fear established there. Now hear | God speak to you through Him Who is His Voice and yours as well, |
| Tx:30.35 | is not your will that it be bound. What lies in you has joined with | God Himself in all creation's birth. Remember He Who has created you |
| Tx:30.36 | merely waits your blessing to be free? If you be prisoner, then | God Himself could not be free. For what is done to him whom God so |
| Tx:30.36 | then God Himself could not be free. For what is done to him whom | God so loves is done to God Himself. Think not He wills to bind you, |
| Tx:30.36 | not be free. For what is done to him whom God so loves is done to | God Himself. Think not He wills to bind you, Who has made you |
| Tx:30.37 | Nor can you be free apart from Him Whose holy will you share. | God turns to you to ask the world be saved, for by your own salvation |
| Tx:30.37 | him, and because you have decided with him, he is healed. And now is | God forgiven, for you chose to look upon your brother as a friend. |
| Tx:30.39 | It is not form you seek. What form can be a substitute for | God the Father's love? What form can take the place of all the love |
| Tx:30.39 | What form can take the place of all the love in the divinity of | God the Son? What idol can make two of what is one? And can the |
| Tx:30.41 | be complete is but God's Will, and this is given you by being His. | God knows not form. He cannot answer you in terms which have no |
| Tx:30.41 | person and no separate thing the power to complete the Son of | God. What idol can be called upon to give the Son of God what he |
| Tx:30.41 | the Son of God. What idol can be called upon to give the Son of | God what he already has? |
| Tx:30.42 | to any form and limited to what is not in him, he would not be as | God created him. What idol can he need to be himself? For can he give |
| Tx:30.42 | would content you not, but in the whole completely lovely Thought | God holds of you. |
| Tx:30.43 | Nothing that | God knows not exists. And what He knows exists forever, changelessly. |
| Tx:30.43 | as long as does the mind that thought of them. And in the Mind of | God there is no ending nor a time in which His Thoughts were absent |
| Tx:30.44 | it. It was always there, but you were unaware of it. The Thought | God holds of you is perfectly unchanged by your forgetting. It will |
| Tx:30.45 | The Thoughts of | God are far beyond all change and shine forever. They await not |
| Tx:30.45 | await not birth. They wait for welcome and remembering. The Thought | God holds of you is like a star, unchangeable in an eternal sky. So |
| Tx:30.47 | Beyond all idols is the Thought | God holds of you. Completely unaffected by the turmoil and the terror |
| Tx:30.47 | myriad of forms that fear can take; quite undisturbed, the Thought | God holds of you remains exactly as it always was. Surrounded by a |
| Tx:30.47 | unaware of all the world that worships idols and that knows not | God. In perfect sureness of its changelessness and of its rest in its |
| Tx:30.47 | its changelessness and of its rest in its eternal home, the Thought | God holds of you has never left the mind of its Creator Whom it |
| Tx:30.48 | Where could the Thought | God holds of you exist but where you are? Is your reality a thing |
| Tx:30.48 | one. Nor can you be aware of more than one. An idol or the Thought | God holds of you is your reality. Forget not, then, that idols must |
| Tx:30.48 | then, that idols must keep hidden what you are, not from the Mind of | God, but from your own. The star shines still; the sky has never |
| Tx:30.48 | shines still; the sky has never changed. But you, the holy Son of | God Himself, are unaware of your reality. |
| Tx:30.52 | Reality observes the laws of | God, and not the rules you set. It is His laws which guarantee your |
| Tx:30.54 | do not want whatever you believe an idol gives. For thus the Son of | God declares that he is free of idols. And thus is he free. |
| Tx:30.55 | no more to substitute the strength of idle wishes for the Will of | God. |
| Tx:30.56 | then its unreality is plain. Dreams are for nothing. And the Son of | God can have no need of them. They offer him no single thing that he |
| Tx:30.60 | The final step is God's because it is but | God Who could create a perfect Son and share His Fatherhood with him. |
| Tx:30.60 | Heaven's Son prepared to be himself, and to remember that the Son of | God knows everything his Father understands and understands it |
| Tx:30.62 | of yourself and what you are, forgiveness washes joyfully away. Yet | God need not create His Son again that what is his be given back to |
| Tx:30.62 | your brother and yourself was never there. And what the Son of | God knew in creation, he must know again. |
| Tx:30.63 | till His Son has reached beyond forgiveness to the love of | God. Yet is the love of Christ accepted first. And then will come the |
| Tx:30.69 | The Will of | God forever lies in those whose hands are joined. Until they joined, |
| Tx:30.69 | they were free to learn their will is one. And thus the Will of | God must reach to their awareness. Nor can they forget for long that |
| Tx:30.73 | the world employs to keep the sense of sin alive. And recognizing | God is just, it seems impossible His pardon could be real. Thus is |
| Tx:30.73 | it seems impossible His pardon could be real. Thus is the fear of | God the sure result of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who sees |
| Tx:30.73 | unmerited. No one who sees himself as guilty can avoid the fear of | God. But he is saved from this dilemma if he can forgive. The mind |
| Tx:30.73 | forgiveness is your right as much as his. Nor will you think that | God intends for you a fearful judgment which your brother does not |
| Tx:30.74 | and to make a world which could replace it and destroy the Will of | God. Only if this were possible could there be some appearances which |
| Tx:30.80 | that there are no forms of evil which can overcome the Will of | God—the glad acknowledgment that guilt has not succeeded by your |
| Tx:30.81 | But what you see as having power to make an idol of the Son of | God you will not pardon. For he has become to you a graven image and |
| Tx:30.82 | Would | God have left the meaning of the world to your interpretation? If He |
| Tx:30.91 | You have established limits. What you ask is given you, but not of | God Who knows no limits. You have limited yourself. |
| Tx:31.4 | The world began with one strange lesson, powerful enough to render | God forgotten and His Son an alien to himself, in exile from the home |
| Tx:31.4 | and His Son an alien to himself, in exile from the home where | God Himself established him. You who have taught yourselves the Son |
| Tx:31.4 | Himself established him. You who have taught yourselves the Son of | God is guilty, say not that you cannot learn the simple things |
| Tx:31.5 | you made and gave yourselves. It was not made to do the Will of | God but to uphold a wish that It could be opposed, and that a will |
| Tx:31.5 | forgiveness have a power mightier than yours because they call from | God and from your Self to you. |
| Tx:31.6 | rise above the senseless noise of sounds which have no meaning? | God willed not His Son forget Him. And the power of His Will is in |
| Tx:31.6 | Which lesson will you learn? What outcome is inevitable, sure as | God, and far beyond all doubt and question? Can it be your little |
| Tx:31.7 | overlearned your chosen task, the lesson which reflects the love of | God is stronger still. And you will learn God's Son is innocent and |
| Tx:31.9 | and understood that it is but your own. The Christ in you remembers | God with all the certainty with which He knows His love. But only if |
| Tx:31.9 | knows His love. But only if His Son is innocent can He be Love. For | God were fear indeed if he whom He created innocent could be a slave |
| Tx:31.10 | The fear of | God results as surely from the lesson that His Son is guilty as God's |
| Tx:31.10 | appear when you have answered Him, and you will know in Him that | God is Love. |
| Tx:31.21 | Forget the dismal lessons that you learned about this Son of | God who calls to you. Christ calls to all with equal tenderness, |
| Tx:31.21 | Voice, He cannot hear a different answer from the one He gave when | God appointed Him His only Son. |
| Tx:31.32 | be no ancient penalty exacted from your brother or yourself. For | God has said there is no sacrifice that can be asked; there is no |
| Tx:31.42 | They have no meaning. You can not escape from what you are. For | God is merciful and did not let His Son abandon Him. For what He is, |
| Tx:31.44 | all. It is an idol, made to take the place of your reality as Son of | God. The concept of the self the world would teach is not the thing |
| Tx:31.64 | It is not done at all. What could there be within the universe which | God created that must still be done? |
| Tx:31.65 | what you look upon nor what you choose to feel or think or wish. For | God Himself has said, “Your will be done.” And it is done to you |
| Tx:31.66 | You who believe that you can choose to see the Son of | God as you would have him be, forget not that no concept of yourself |
| Tx:31.67 | could hurt the truly innocent? Your will be done, you holy Child of | God. It does not matter if you think you are in earth or Heaven. What |
| Tx:31.70 | to see. For you will not interpret what you see without the Aid that | God has given you. And in His sight there is another world. |
| Tx:31.72 | concept of yourself be changed to one which brings the peace of | God. |
| Tx:31.76 | The veil across the face of Christ, the fear of | God and of salvation, and the love of guilt and death, they all are |
| Tx:31.77 | saved himself, and thus is he a savior to the rest. To everyone has | God entrusted all, because a partial savior would be one who is but |
| Tx:31.77 | savior would be one who is but partly saved. The holy ones whom | God has given each of you to save are everyone you meet or look upon, |
| Tx:31.77 | those you will yet meet, the unremembered and the not yet born. For | God has given you His Son to save from every concept that he ever |
| Tx:31.78 | you wish to stay in hell, how could you be the savior of the Son of | God? How would you know his holiness while you see him apart from |
| Tx:31.82 | eyes and offers them forgiveness with his own. Can you to whom | God says, “Release My Son!” be tempted not to listen when you learn |
| Tx:31.83 | all its forms wherever it occurs. It would persuade the holy Son of | God he is a body, born in what must die, unable to escape its frailty |
| Tx:31.87 | left to veil the truth. [He would remove all misery from you, whom | God created altars unto joy.] He would not leave you comfortless, |
| Tx:31.87 | is real in you. His strength is yours because He is the Self that | God created as His only Son. |
| Tx:31.88 | The images you make can not prevail against what | God Himself would have you be. Be never fearful of temptation then, |
| Tx:31.88 | the world, for they are joined in all the power of the Will of | God. And what they will is only what He wills. |
| Tx:31.90 | I am as | God created me. His Son can suffer nothing. And I am His Son. |
| Tx:31.91 | replacing all your weakness with the strength that comes from | God and that can never fail. And thus are miracles as natural as fear |
| Tx:31.92 | You are as | God created you, and so is every living thing you look upon, |
| Tx:31.93 | gift I ask when in exchange I lay before your feet the peace of | God and power to bring this peace to everyone who wanders in the |
| Tx:31.93 | will behold it not. To give this gift is how to make it yours. And | God ordained in loving kindness that it be for you. |
| Tx:31.94 | the Christ appeared. Hear me, my brothers, hear and join with me. | God has ordained I cannot call in vain, and in His certainty I rest |
| W1:12.8 | is meaningless in truth. Beneath your words is written the Word of | God. The truth upsets you now, but when your words have been erased, |
| W1:13.2 | in all the separated ones. It represents a situation in which | God and the ego “challenge” each other as to whose meaning is to be |
| W1:13.7 | world engenders fear because I think I am in competition with | God. |
| W1:14.1 | of course, the reason why a meaningless world is impossible. What | God did not create does not exist. And everything that does exist |
| W1:14.3 | thoughts which you have written on the world, and see the Word of | God in their place. The early steps in this exchange, which can truly |
| W1:14.4 | mind. Name each one as it occurs to you, and then deny its reality. | God did not create it, and so it is not real. Say, for example: |
| W1:14.5 | God did not create that war, and so it is not real. God did not | |
| W1:14.5 | God did not create that war, and so it is not real. | God did not create that airplane crash, and so it is not real. God |
| W1:14.5 | real. God did not create that airplane crash, and so it is not real. | God did not create that disaster [specify], and so it is not real. |
| W1:14.7 | and others are part of your personal hell. It does not matter. What | God did not create can only be in your own mind apart from His. |
| W1:14.8 | God did not create a meaningless world. | |
| W1:14.10 | God did not create a meaningless world. He did not create [specify | |
| W1:19.2 | at all. And salvation must be possible because it is the Will of | God. |
| W1:20.3 | be a trivial purpose? And can the world be saved if you are not? | God has one Son, and he is the resurrection and the life. His Will is |
| W1:29.2 | irreverent, senseless, funny, and even objectionable. Certainly | God is not in a table, for example, as you see it. Yet we emphasized |
| W1:29.6 | God is in this coat hanger. God is in this magazine. God is in this | |

| W1:38.1 | unlimited in its power because it establishes you as a Son of | God, at one with the Mind of his Creator. Through your holiness, the |

| W1:38.2 | equal in its power to save anyone. If you are holy, so is everything | God created. You are holy because all things He created are holy. And |
| W1:38.7 | There is nothing my holiness cannot do because the power of | God lies in it. |
| W1:39.4 | How could you to whom your holiness belongs be excluded from it? | God does not know unholiness. Can it be He does not know His Son? |
| W1:40.3 | several of the attributes which you associate with being a Son of | God, applying them to yourself. One practice period might, for |
| W1:40.4 | I am blessed as a Son of | God. I am happy, peaceful, loving, and contented. |
| W1:40.6 | I am blessed as a Son of | God. I am calm, quiet, assured, and confident. |
| W1:40.7 | available, merely telling yourself that you are blessed as a Son of | God will do. |
| W1:41.3 | you wherever you go. Nothing can destroy your peace of mind because | God goes with you wherever you go. |
| W1:41.7 | It is quite possible to reach | God. In fact it is very easy because it is the most natural thing in |
| W1:41.9 | You can indeed afford to laugh at fear thoughts, remembering that | God goes with you wherever you go. |
| W1:42.1 | the goal of the course. You will see because it is the Will of | God. It is His strength, not your own, that gives you power. And it |
| W1:42.2 | God is indeed your strength. And what He gives is truly given. This | |
| W1:42.2 | but be in the right place at the right time. Such is the strength of | God. Such are His gifts. |
| W1:42.5 | Vision must be possible. | God gives truly; or, |
| W1:43.1 | Perception is not an attribute of | God. His is the realm of knowledge. Yet He has created the Holy |
| W1:43.1 | Mediator between perception and knowledge. Without this link with | God, perception would have replaced knowledge forever in your minds. |
| W1:43.1 | have replaced knowledge forever in your minds. With this link with | God, perception will become so changed and purified that it will lead |
| W1:43.2 | In | God you cannot see. Perception has no function in God and does not |
| W1:43.2 | In God you cannot see. Perception has no function in | God and does not exist. Yet in salvation, which is the undoing of |
| W1:43.2 | what never was, perception has a mighty purpose. Made by the Son of | God for an unholy purpose, it must become the means for the |
| W1:43.2 | to God's. Healed perception becomes the means by which the Son of | God forgives his brother and thus forgives himself. |
| W1:43.3 | You cannot see apart from | God because you cannot be apart from God. Whatever you do, you do in |
| W1:43.3 | You cannot see apart from God because you cannot be apart from | God. Whatever you do, you do in Him because whatever you think, you |
| W1:43.3 | it shares the Holy Spirit's purpose, then you cannot see apart from | God. |
| W1:43.6 | God is my Source. I cannot see this desk apart from Him. God is my | |
| W1:43.6 | God is my Source. I cannot see this desk apart from Him. | God is my Source. I cannot see that picture apart from Him. |
| W1:43.13 | God is my Source. I cannot see you apart from Him. | |
| W1:43.16 | God is my Source. I cannot see this apart from Him. | |
| W1:44.6 | to escape from darkness, whatever you may believe to the contrary. | God is the Light in which you see. You are attempting to reach Him. |
| W1:45.2 | You think with the Mind of | God. Therefore you share your thoughts with Him, as He shares His |
| W1:45.2 | alike or to make one. Nor do the thoughts you think with the Mind of | God leave your mind, because thoughts do not leave their source. |
| W1:45.2 | not leave their source. Therefore your thoughts are in the Mind of | God, as you are. They are in your mind as well, where He is. As you |
| W1:45.3 | there because they cannot have left. What is thought by the Mind of | God is eternal, being part of creation. |
| W1:45.4 | back, and we will not let the beliefs of the world tell us that what | God would have us do is impossible. |
| W1:45.5 | Instead, we will try to recognize that only what | God would have us do is possible. We will also try to understand that |
| W1:45.5 | us do is possible. We will also try to understand that only what | God would have us do is what we want to do. And we will also try to |
| W1:45.5 | to feel confident that you will succeed today. It is the Will of | God. |
| W1:45.9 | have cluttered up your mind are the thoughts which you thought with | God in the beginning. They are there in your mind now, completely |
| W1:45.10 | for today are directed. Here is your mind joined with the Mind of | God. Here are your thoughts one with His. |
| W1:45.11 | —approach it as you would an altar dedicated in Heaven itself to | God the Father and God the Son. For such is the place you are trying |
| W1:45.11 | you would an altar dedicated in Heaven itself to God the Father and | God the Son. For such is the place you are trying to reach. You will |
| W1:45.12 | it is to you to understand the holiness of the mind that thinks with | God. Take a minute or two as you repeat the idea throughout the day |
| W1:46.1 | God does not forgive because He has never condemned. And there must | |
| W1:46.2 | Although | God does not forgive, His love is nevertheless the basis of |
| W1:46.2 | what fear has produced, returning the mind to the awareness of | God. For this reason, forgiveness can truly be called salvation. It |
| W1:46.5 | God is the Love in which I forgive you, [name]. | |
| W1:46.7 | God is the Love in which I forgive myself. | |
| W1:46.9 | God is the Love with which I love myself. God is the Love in which I | |
| W1:46.9 | God is the Love with which I love myself. | God is the Love in which I am blessed. |
| W1:46.11 | I cannot be guilty because I am a Son of | God. I have already been forgiven. No fear is possible in a mind |
| W1:46.11 | have already been forgiven. No fear is possible in a mind beloved of | God. There is no need to attack, because Love has forgiven me. |
| W1:46.14 | God is the Love in which I forgive you. | |
| W1:47.3 | God is your safety in every circumstance. His Voice speaks for Him in | |
| W1:47.3 | His strength and His protection. There are no exceptions because | God has no exceptions. And the Voice Which speaks for Him thinks as |
| W1:47.5 | God is the Strength in which I trust. | |
| W1:47.6 | trusting yourself that you will gain confidence. But the strength of | God in you is successful in all things. |
| W1:47.8 | nothing is impossible. There is a place in you where the strength of | God abides. |
| W1:47.9 | is your right because you are giving your trust to the strength of | God. |
| W1:48.3 | in a place which you recognize as yet, you have remembered | God and let His strength take the place of yours. The instant you are |
| W1:49.1 | of your mind in which truth abides is in constant communication with | God, whether you are aware of it or not. It is the other part of your |
| W1:49.2 | The part that is listening to the Voice of | God is calm, always at rest, and wholly certain. It is really the |
| W1:49.3 | if possible. We will try actually to hear the Voice reminding you of | God and of your Self. We will approach this happiest and holiest of |
| W1:49.3 | knowing that in doing so we are joining our will with the Will of | God. He wants you to hear His Voice. He gave It to you to be heard. |
| W1:49.4 | that cover your real thoughts and obscure your eternal link with | God. Sink deep into the peace that waits for you beyond the frantic, |
| W1:49.4 | reach the place where you are truly welcome. We are trying to reach | God. |
| W1:50.1 | time. In this world, you believe you are sustained by everything but | God. Your faith is placed in the most trivial and insane symbols— |
| W1:50.1 | powers. All these things are your replacements for the Love of | God. All these things are cherished to ensure a body identification. |
| W1:50.2 | faith in the worthless. It will not sustain you. Only the Love of | God will protect you in all circumstances. It will lift you out of |
| W1:50.2 | and where nothing can intrude upon the eternal calm of the Son of | God. |
| W1:50.3 | in illusions. They will fail you. Put all your faith in the Love of | God within you, eternal, changeless and forever unfailing. This is |
| W1:50.3 | is the answer to whatever confronts you today. Through the Love of | God in you, you can resolve all seeming difficulties without effort |
| W1:50.4 | and foolish thoughts enter to disturb the holy mind of the Son of | God. Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Such is the resting place where |
| W1:51.5 | I am aware do not mean anything because I am trying to think without | God. What I call “my” thoughts are not my real thoughts. My real |
| W1:51.5 | not my real thoughts. My real thoughts are the thoughts I think with | God. I am not aware of them because I have made my thoughts to take |
| W1:51.5 | are meaningless, but all creation lies in the thoughts I think with | God. |
| W1:52.4 | on my mind. Let me understand that I am trying to use time against | God. Let me learn to give the past away, realizing that in so doing I |
| W1:53.5 | [14] | God did not create a meaningless world. How can a meaningless world |
| W1:53.5 | not create a meaningless world. How can a meaningless world exist if | God did not create it? He is the Source of all meaning, and |
| W1:54.5 | Everything I think or say or do touches all the universe. A Son of | God cannot think or speak or act in vain. He cannot be alone in |
| W1:54.5 | power to change every mind along with mine, for mine is the power of | God. |
| W1:54.6 | the real world, and let it teach me that my will and the Will of | God are one. |
| W1:55.2 | are but signs of disease, disaster, and death. This cannot be what | God created for His beloved Son. The very fact that I see such things |
| W1:55.2 | very fact that I see such things is proof that I do not understand | God. Therefore I also do not understand His Son. What I see tells me |
| W1:55.3 | by everything. It is anything but a reflection of the Love of | God and the love of His Son. It is my own attack thoughts which give |
| W1:55.3 | will save me from this perception of the world and give me the peace | God intended me to have. |
| W1:55.5 | closer to the world of illusions. I am willing to follow the Guide | God has given me to find out what my own best interests are, |
| W1:56.2 | to give my inheritance away in exchange for the world I see. But | God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My own real thoughts will |
| W1:56.4 | me that I may look past it to the world that reflects the Love of | God. |
| W1:56.5 | [29] | God is in everything I see. Behind every image I have made, the truth |
| W1:56.5 | all my insane wishes is my will united with the Will of my Father. | God is still everywhere and in everything forever. And we who are |
| W1:56.6 | [30] | God is in everything I see because God is in my mind. In my own mind, |
| W1:56.6 | [30] God is in everything I see because | God is in my mind. In my own mind, behind all my insane thoughts of |
| W1:56.6 | because I have forgotten it. It has been kept for me in the Mind of | God, Who has not left His thoughts. And I, who am among them, am one |
| W1:57.3 | deluded myself into believing it is possible to imprison the Son of | God. I was bitterly mistaken in this belief, which I no longer want. |
| W1:57.3 | bitterly mistaken in this belief, which I no longer want. The Son of | God must be forever free. He is as God created him, and not what I |
| W1:57.3 | I no longer want. The Son of God must be forever free. He is as | God created him, and not what I would make of him. He is where God |
| W1:57.3 | is as God created him, and not what I would make of him. He is where | God would have him be, and not where I thought to hold him prisoner. |
| W1:57.4 | look upon the world as it is, and see it as a place where the Son of | God finds his freedom. |
| W1:57.5 | as a place of freedom, I will realize that it reflects the laws of | God instead of the rules which I made up for it to obey. I will |
| W1:58.4 | truth about me. In the presence of my holiness, which I share with | God Himself, all idols vanish. |
| W1:58.5 | everyone must share in my understanding, which is the gift of | God to me and to the world. |
| W1:58.6 | [40] I am blessed as a Son of | God. Herein lies my claim to all good and only good. I am blessed as |
| W1:58.6 | lies my claim to all good and only good. I am blessed as a Son of | God. All good things are mine because God intended them for me. I |
| W1:58.6 | good. I am blessed as a Son of God. All good things are mine because | God intended them for me. I cannot suffer any loss or deprivation or |
| W1:59.2 | [41] | God goes with me wherever I go. How can I be alone when God always |
| W1:59.2 | [41] God goes with me wherever I go. How can I be alone when | God always goes with me? How can I be doubtful and unsure of myself |
| W1:59.2 | Him? Let me not cherish illusions about myself. I am perfect because | God goes with me wherever I go. |
| W1:59.3 | [42] | God is my strength. Vision is His gift. Let me not look to my own |
| W1:59.3 | my pitiful illusion of seeing for the vision that is given by | God. Christ's vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. Let me |
| W1:59.4 | [43] | God is my Source. I cannot see apart from Him. I can see what God |
| W1:59.4 | [43] God is my Source. I cannot see apart from Him. I can see what | God wants me to see. I cannot see anything else. Beyond His Will lie |
| W1:59.5 | [44] | God is the Light in which I see. I cannot see in darkness. God is the |
| W1:59.5 | [44] God is the Light in which I see. I cannot see in darkness. | God is the only Light. Therefore if I am to see, it must be through |
| W1:59.5 | is, and I have been wrong. Now it is given me to understand that | God is the Light in which I see. Let me welcome vision and the happy |
| W1:59.6 | [45] | God is the Mind with which I think. I have no thoughts I do not share |
| W1:59.6 | the Mind with which I think. I have no thoughts I do not share with | God. I have no thoughts apart from Him because I have no mind apart |
| W1:60.2 | [46] | God is the Love in which I forgive. God does not forgive, because He |
| W1:60.2 | [46] God is the Love in which I forgive. | God does not forgive, because He has never condemned. The blameless |
| W1:60.2 | on earth. It will bring me near enough to Heaven that the Love of | God can reach down to me and raise me to my home. |
| W1:60.3 | [47] | God is the Strength in which I trust. It is not my own strength |
| W1:60.3 | own strength through which I forgive. It is through the strength of | God in me, which I am remembering as I forgive. As I begin to see, I |
| W1:60.6 | [50] I am sustained by the Love of | God. As I listen to God's Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I |
| W1:61.1 | you have endowed your idols. It refers to you as you were created by | God. It simply states the truth. |
| W1:61.2 | that you cannot be the light of the world if that is the function | God assigned to you. It is only arrogance that would assert this |
| W1:61.10 | You are the light of the world. | God has built His plan for the salvation of His Son on you. |
| W1:62.3 | and guilt and pain. It will restore the invulnerability and power | God gave His Son to your awareness. |
| W1:62.4 | throughout the day. It will help to make the day as happy for you as | God wants you to be. And it will help those around you as well as |
| W1:63.2 | are indeed the light of the world with such a function. The Son of | God looks to you for his redemption. It is yours to give him, for it |
| W1:63.2 | in its place or you will forget your function and leave the Son of | God in hell. This is no idle request that is being asked of you. You |
| W1:63.4 | brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. I am the means | God has appointed for the salvation of the world. |
| W1:64.1 | a justification for forgetting it. It is the temptation to abandon | God and His Son, taking on a physical appearance. It is this which |
| W1:64.3 | here is to be the light of the world, a function given you by | God. It is only the arrogance of the ego that leads you to question |
| W1:64.3 | you to regard yourself as unworthy of the task assigned to you by | God Himself. |
| W1:64.4 | awaits your forgiveness, because through it does the Son of | God escape from all illusions and thus from all temptation. The Son |
| W1:64.4 | escape from all illusions and thus from all temptation. The Son of | God is you. Only by fulfilling the function given you by God will you |
| W1:64.4 | The Son of God is you. Only by fulfilling the function given you by | God will you be happy. That is because your function is to be happy |
| W1:65.1 | only way in which you can say and mean, “My only function is the one | God gave me.” This is the only way in which you can find peace of |
| W1:65.4 | this is to arrange your day so that you have set apart the time for | God, as well as for all the trivial purposes and goals you will |
| W1:65.13 | My only function is the one | God gave me. I want no other and I have no other. |
| W1:66.4 | that not only is there a very real connection between the function | God gave you and your happiness, but that they are actually |
| W1:66.4 | gave you and your happiness, but that they are actually identical. | God gives you only happiness. Therefore the function He gave you must |
| W1:66.6 | God gives me only happiness. He has given my function to me. | |
| W1:66.8 | The first premise is that | God gives you only happiness. This could be false, of course, but in |
| W1:66.8 | false, of course, but in order to be false it is necessary to define | God as something He is not. Love cannot give evil, and what is not |
| W1:66.8 | He is not. Love cannot give evil, and what is not happiness is evil. | God cannot give what He does not have, and He cannot have what He is |
| W1:66.8 | what He does not have, and He cannot have what He is not. Unless | God gives you only happiness, He must be evil. And it is this |
| W1:66.9 | The second premise is that | God has given you your function. We have seen that there are only two |
| W1:66.10 | Thus it must be that your function is established by | God through His Voice or is made by the ego which you have made to |
| W1:66.10 | by the ego which you have made to replace Him. Which is true? Unless | God gave your function to you, it must be the gift of the ego. Does |
| W1:66.12 | rests. We can share in this conclusion, but in no other. For | God Himself shares it with us. |
| W1:66.15 | My happiness and function are one because | God has given me both. |
| W1:67.1 | you are. This is why you are the light of the world. This is why | God appointed you as the world's savior. This is why the Son of God |
| W1:67.1 | why God appointed you as the world's savior. This is why the Son of | God looks to you for his salvation. He is saved by what you are. |
| W1:67.4 | Any attribute which is in accord with | God as He defines Himself is appropriate for use. We are trying today |
| W1:67.4 | appropriate for use. We are trying today to undo your definition of | God and replace it with His own. We are also trying to emphasize that |
| W1:67.8 | your tiny solitary voice that tells you this. This is the Voice for | God reminding you of your Father and of your Self. This is the Voice |
| W1:67.8 | ego tells you about yourself with the simple truth about the Son of | God. You were created by Love like Itself. |
| W1:68.3 | to him in his dream of hate. Who can dream of hatred and not fear | God? |
| W1:68.4 | It is as sure that those who hold grievances will redefine | God in their own image as it is certain that God created them like |
| W1:68.4 | will redefine God in their own image as it is certain that | God created them like Himself and defined them as part of Him. It is |
| W1:69.7 | determination call on the power of the universe to help you, and | God Himself will raise you from darkness into light. You are in |
| W1:69.8 | Try to keep the thought clearly in mind that what you undertake with | God must succeed. Then let the power of God work in you and through |
| W1:69.8 | that what you undertake with God must succeed. Then let the power of | God work in you and through you, that His Will and yours may be done. |
| W1:70.4 | God would not have put the remedy for sickness where it cannot help. | |
| W1:70.6 | God wants us to be healed, and we do not really want to be sick, | |
| W1:70.6 | Therefore, in accepting the idea for today, we are in agreement with | God. He does not want us to be sick. Neither do we. He wants us to be |
| W1:71.6 | you seek for salvation where it is. But if you are to succeed, as | God promises you will, you must be willing to seek there only. |
| W1:71.8 | a conflict with no resolution possible. All things are possible to | God. Salvation must be yours because of His plan, which cannot fail. |
| W1:71.10 | us devote the remainder of the extended practice periods to asking | God to reveal His plan to us. Ask Him very specifically: |
| W1:72.1 | on His plan and a deliberate attempt to destroy it. In the attack, | God is assigned the attributes which are actually associated with the |
| W1:72.1 | with the ego, while the ego appears to take on the attributes of | God. |
| W1:72.2 | The ego's fundamental wish is to replace | God. In fact, the ego is the physical embodiment of this wish. For it |
| W1:72.4 | to it by confusing it with him and judging them as one. Herein is | God attacked, for if His Son is only a body, so must He be as well. A |
| W1:72.5 | If | God is a body, what must His plan for salvation be? What could it be |
| W1:72.6 | The body's apparent reality makes this view of | God quite convincing. In fact, if the body were real, it would be |
| W1:72.6 | that his salvation must be death, projecting this attack onto | God and holding Him responsible for it. |
| W1:72.7 | seek for prey and mercy cannot enter, the ego comes to save you. | God made you a body. Very well. Let us accept this and be glad. As a |
| W1:72.7 | be deprived of what the body offers. Take the little you can get. | God gave you nothing. The body is your only savior. It is the death |
| W1:72.7 | gave you nothing. The body is your only savior. It is the death of | God and your salvation. |
| W1:72.10 | The light of truth is in us, where it was placed by | God. It is the body that is outside us and is not our concern. To be |
| W1:73.1 | Today we are considering the will you share with | God. This is not the same as the ego's idle wishes, out of which |
| W1:73.1 | out of which darkness and nothingness arise. The will you share with | God has all the power of creation in it. The ego's idle wishes are |
| W1:73.3 | exchange. Can such a world have been created by the will the Son of | God shares with his Father? Did God create disaster for His Son? |
| W1:73.3 | been created by the will the Son of God shares with his Father? Did | God create disaster for His Son? Creation is the will of Both |
| W1:73.3 | disaster for His Son? Creation is the will of Both together. Would | God create a world that kills Himself? |
| W1:73.4 | your will. The light is in it because it does not oppose the Will of | God. It is not Heaven, but the light of Heaven shines on it. Darkness |
| W1:73.11 | will succeed today, the time appointed for the release of the Son of | God from hell and from all idle wishes. His will is now restored to |
| W1:73.14 | Then let your will assert itself, joined with the power of | God and united with your Self. Put the rest of the practice period |
| W1:74.1 | you are torn by conflicting goals. As an expression of the Will of | God, you have no goal but His. |
| W1:74.6 | Nothing can disturb me. My will is God's My will and God's are one. | God wills peace for His Son. |
| W1:75.11 | time for special celebration. Give thanks for mercy and the Love of | God. Rejoice in the power of forgiveness to heal your sight |
| W1:75.15 | We dedicate this day to the serenity in which | God would have you be. Keep it in your awareness of yourself and see |
| W1:76.6 | There are no laws except the laws of | God. This needs repeating over and over until you realize that it |
| W1:76.7 | The laws of | God can never be replaced. We will devote today to rejoicing that |
| W1:76.7 | truth which keeps us free forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of | God set free. The light has come because there are no laws but His. |
| W1:76.10 | will be listening to One Who says there is no loss under the laws of | God. Payment is neither given nor received. Exchange cannot be made, |
| W1:76.14 | from all danger and all tyranny. It is our acknowledgment that | God is our Father and that His Son is saved. |
| W1:77.1 | because of what you are. You will receive miracles because of what | God is. And you will offer miracles because you are one with God. |
| W1:77.1 | of what God is. And you will offer miracles because you are one with | God. Again, how simple is salvation! It is merely a statement of your |
| W1:77.2 | It is inherent in the truth of what you are. It is implicit in what | God your Father is. It was ensured in your creation and guaranteed by |
| W1:77.2 | is. It was ensured in your creation and guaranteed by the laws of | God. |
| W1:77.3 | from the world you made. You have been assured that the Kingdom of | God is within you and can never be lost. We ask no more than what |
| W1:77.4 | not obey the laws of this world. They merely follow from the laws of | God. |
| W1:77.5 | fail to be assured in this. You are but asking that the Will of | God be done. In doing this, you do not really ask for anything. You |
| W1:77.11 | not trade miracles for grievances. I want only what belongs to me. | God has established miracles as my right. |
| W1:78.2 | lay it down and gently lift our eyes in silence to behold the Son of | God. |
| W1:78.3 | grievance is a block to sight, and as it lifts, you see the Son of | God where he has always been. He stands in light, but you were in the |
| W1:78.6 | to him. Let him be savior unto you today. Such is his role in | God your Father's plan. |
| W1:78.8 | Then let us ask of Him Who knows this Son of | God in his reality and truth that we may look on him a different way |
| W1:78.8 | of true forgiveness given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of | God and of His Son, as holy as Himself: |
| W1:78.11 | You have allowed the Holy Spirit to express through him the role | God gave Him that you might be saved. God thanks you for these quiet |
| W1:78.11 | express through him the role God gave Him that you might be saved. | God thanks you for these quiet times today in which you laid your |
| W1:78.11 | The world and Heaven join in thanking you, for not one thought of | God but must rejoice as you are saved and all the world with you. |
| W1:82.5 | And unless I fulfill my function, I will not experience the joy that | God intends for me. |
| W1:83.2 | [65] My only function is the one | God gave me. I have no function but the one God gave me. This |
| W1:83.2 | only function is the one God gave me. I have no function but the one | God gave me. This recognition releases me from all conflict because |
| W1:83.2 | must disappear as I acknowledge that my only function is the one | God gave me. |
| W1:83.4 | my function. This does not give me a function other than the one | God gave me. Let me not use this to justify a function God did not |
| W1:83.4 | than the one God gave me. Let me not use this to justify a function | God did not give me. |
| W1:83.5 | [66] My happiness and my function are one. All things that come from | God are one. They come from Oneness and must be received as one. |
| W1:87.7 | Let me perceive this in accordance with the Will of | God. It is God's Will you are His Son, [name], and mine as well. This |
| W1:88.7 | me I believe in laws which do not exist. I see only the laws of | God at work in this. Let me allow God's laws to work in this and not |
| W1:89.2 | hide the miracles beyond. Now I would accept only what the laws of | God entitle me to have that I may use it on behalf of the function He |
| W1:89.5 | and no substitutes. I want all of Heaven and only Heaven, as | God wills me to have. |
| W1:90.5 | in their occurrence. That is because I do not yet realize that | God has placed the answer together with the problem, so that they |
| W1:91.13 | your efforts, however meager, are fully supported by the strength of | God and all His thoughts. It is from Them your strength will come. It |
| W1:92.5 | and adored that strength may be dispelled and darkness rule where | God appointed that there should be light. Strength comes from truth |
| W1:92.9 | the meeting place we try today to find and rest in, for the peace of | God is where your Self, His Son, is waiting now to meet itself again |
| W1:93.4 | abide in you? Your image of yourself cannot withstand the Will of | God. You think that this is death, but it is life. You think you are |
| W1:93.5 | The self you made is not the Son of | God. Therefore, this self does not exist at all. And anything it |
| W1:93.5 | and nothing more than that. It does not battle with the Son of | God. It does not hurt him nor attack his peace. It has not changed |
| W1:93.5 | can this self you made possess when it would contradict the Will of | God? |
| W1:93.6 | Your sinlessness is guaranteed by | God. Over and over this must be repeated until it is accepted. It is |
| W1:93.6 | until it is accepted. It is true. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by | God. Nothing can touch it nor can change what God created as eternal. |
| W1:93.6 | is guaranteed by God. Nothing can touch it nor can change what | God created as eternal. The self you made, evil and full of sin, is |
| W1:93.6 | and full of sin, is meaningless. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by | God, and light and joy and peace abide in you. |
| W1:93.7 | Salvation requires the acceptance of but one thought—you are as | God created you, not what you made of yourself. Whatever evil you may |
| W1:93.7 | made of yourself. Whatever evil you may think you did, you are as | God created you. Whatever mistakes you made, the truth about you is |
| W1:93.7 | is eternal and unalterable. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by | God. You are and will forever be exactly as you were created. Light |
| W1:93.7 | as you were created. Light and joy and peace abide in you because | God put them there. |
| W1:93.9 | Light and joy and peace abide in me. My sinlessness is guaranteed by | God. |
| W1:93.10 | spend the rest of the practice period in trying to experience what | God has given you in place of what you have decreed for yourself. |
| W1:93.11 | You are what | God created or what you made. One Self is true; the other is not |
| W1:93.11 | from which it was created. Try not to interfere with the Self which | God created as you by hiding its majesty behind the tiny idols of |
| W1:93.13 | Light and joy and peace abide in me. My sinlessness is guaranteed by | God. |
| W1:93.16 | and joy and peace abide in you. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by | God. |
| W1:93.17 | today to bring you closer to accepting the part in salvation which | God has assigned to you. And you can do much today to bring the |
| W1:94.1 | thought which renders the ego silent and entirely undone. You are as | God created you. The sounds of this world are still, the sights of |
| W1:94.2 | True light is strength, and strength is sinlessness. If you remain as | God created you, you must be strong and light must be in you. He Who |
| W1:94.2 | must be the guarantee of strength and light as well. You are as | God created you. Darkness cannot obscure the glory of the Son of God. |
| W1:94.2 | as God created you. Darkness cannot obscure the glory of the Son of | God. You stand in light, strong in the sinlessness in which you were |
| W1:94.4 | I am as | God created me. I am His Son eternally. |
| W1:94.5 | Now try to reach the Son of | God in you. This is the Self that never sinned nor made an image to |
| W1:94.5 | to replace reality. This is the Self which never left its home in | God to walk the world uncertainly. This is the Self which knows no |
| W1:94.6 | ascribed to yourself and wait in silent expectancy for the truth. | God has Himself promised that it will be revealed to all who ask for |
| W1:94.8 | I am as | God created me. I am His Son eternally. |
| W1:94.9 | Tell yourself frequently today that you are as | God created you. And be sure to respond to anyone who seems to |
| W1:94.10 | You are as | God created you. You are His Son eternally. |
| W1:95.1 | Today's idea accurately describes you as | God created you. You are one within yourself and one with Him. Yours |
| W1:95.2 | of yourself—a self divided into many warring parts, separate from | God, and tenuously held together by its erratic and capricious maker, |
| W1:95.2 | in you, for it is blind. It does not understand you are the Son of | God, for it is senseless and understands nothing. |
| W1:95.16 | minds, that true creation may extend the Allness and the Unity of | God. |
| W1:95.17 | is and all that there will be. You are One Self, the holy Son of | God, united with your brothers in this Self, united with your Father |
| W1:95.18 | all your illusions and your doubts. This is your Self, the Son of | God Himself, sinless as its Creator, with His strength within you and |
| W1:96.8 | its thoughts, and they remain within your mind and in the Mind of | God. The Holy Spirit holds salvation in your mind and offers it the |
| W1:96.8 | offers it the way to peace. Salvation is a thought you share with | God, because His Voice accepted it for you and answered in your name |
| W1:97.2 | We state again the truth about your Self, the holy Son of | God who rests in you whose mind has been restored to sanity. You are |
| W1:97.9 | Spirit am I, a holy Son of | God, free of all limits, safe and healed and whole, free to forgive, |
| W1:97.11 | speak to you, reminding you that you are Spirit, one with Him and | God, your brothers and your Self. Listen for His assurance every time |
| W1:98.1 | the one. We dedicate ourselves to truth today and to salvation as | God planned it be. We will not argue it is something else; we will |
| W1:98.1 | gladness we accept it as it is and take the part assigned to us by | God. |
| W1:98.5 | of your time each hour to be able to accept the happiness that | God has given you? Is it not worth five minutes hourly to recognize |
| W1:99.1 | corrective change, something apart or different from the Will of | God. Thus do both terms imply the thought of the impossible which has |
| W1:99.3 | real because the mind that thinks these thoughts is separate from | God. |
| W1:99.4 | without attack and with no touch of pain? What but a thought of | God could be this plan by which the never done is overlooked and sins |
| W1:99.5 | The Holy Spirit holds this plan of | God exactly as it was received of Him within the Mind of God and in |
| W1:99.5 | plan of God exactly as it was received of Him within the Mind of | God and in your own. It is apart from time in that its Source is |
| W1:99.5 | and on loss. Yet does He know one thing must still be true— | God still is Love, and this is not His Will. |
| W1:99.8 | Salvation is my only function here. | God still is Love, and this is not His Will. |
| W1:99.10 | This part belongs to | God, as does the rest. It does not think its solitary thoughts and |
| W1:99.15 | do not want to be another self. You have no function that is not of | God. Forgive yourself the one you think you made. Forgiveness and |
| W1:99.17 | Salvation is my only function here. | God still is Love, and this is not His Will. |
| W1:99.20 | find Its rightful place in you and show you that you are the Son of | God. |
| W1:100.2 | you. They will see their function in your shining face and hear | God calling to them in your happy laugh. |
| W1:100.3 | smile, the world cannot be saved. While you are sad, the light which | God Himself appointed as the means to save the world is dim and |
| W1:100.4 | and their joy heals sorrow and despair. They are the proof that | God wills perfect happiness for all who will accept their Father's |
| W1:100.5 | would play another part instead of what has been assigned to you by | God. Thus do you fail to show the world how great the happiness He |
| W1:100.6 | and all the world is thus deprived of joy along with you. | God asks that you be happy so the world can see how much He loves His |
| W1:100.10 | foolish goal can keep you from success when He Who calls to you is | God Himself? He will be there. You are essential to His plan. You are |
| W1:101.2 | sometime, in some form which evens the account they owe to | God. They would escape Him in their fear. And yet He will pursue, and |
| W1:101.4 | If sin is real, salvation has become your bitter enemy, the curse of | God upon you who have crucified His Son. |
| W1:101.7 | Fear not the Will of | God. But turn to it in confidence that it will set you free from all |
| W1:102.2 | been slave to nothing. Be you free today to join the happy Will of | God. |
| W1:103.2 | These images, with no reality in truth, bear witness to the fear of | God, forgetting being Love, He must be joy. |
| W1:103.4 | God, being Love, is also happiness. To fear Him is to be afraid of | |
| W1:103.5 | today with this association, which corrects the false belief that | God is fear. It also emphasizes happiness belongs to you because of |
| W1:103.6 | fear, and joy becomes what you expect to take the place of pain. | God being Love, it will be given you. Bolster this expectation |
| W1:103.7 | God, being Love, is also happiness. And it is happiness I seek today. | |
| W1:104.1 | They are your right because of what you are. They come to you from | God, Who cannot fail to give you what He wills. Yet must there be a |
| W1:104.3 | them in place of what we made we but unite our will with what | God wills and recognize the same as being one. |
| W1:104.6 | seek instead that which is truly ours, as we ask to recognize what | God has given us. |
| W1:105.7 | you the peace and joy that are their right under the equal laws of | God. Here you denied them to yourself. And here you must return to |
| W1:105.9 | today. Now are you ready to accept the gift of peace and joy which | God has given you. Now are you ready to experience the joy and peace |
| W1:105.12 | see it as but another chance to let yourself receive the gifts of | God as yours. Then bless your brother thankfully, and say: |
| W1:106.4 | They end the dream instead and last forever, for they come from | God to His dear Son, whose other name is you. |
| W1:106.5 | lies upon the earth and wakes all those who sleep and cannot see. | God calls to them through you. He needs your voice to speak to them, |
| W1:106.12 | Today the holy Word of | God is kept through your receiving it to give away, so you can teach |
| W1:106.13 | Let me be still and listen to the truth. I am the messenger of | God today. My voice is His, to give what I receive. |
| W1:109.2 | “I rest in | God.” This thought will bring to you the rest and quiet, peace and |
| W1:109.2 | and stillness, and the safety and the happiness you seek. “I rest in | God.” This thought has power to wake the sleeping truth in you, whose |
| W1:109.2 | come to linger for a while. Here is the thought in which the Son of | God is born again, to recognize himself. |
| W1:109.3 | “I rest in | God.” Completely undismayed this thought will carry you through |
| W1:109.3 | misery and pain, past loss and death, and onward to the certainty of | God. There is no suffering it cannot heal. There is no problem which |
| W1:109.3 | appearance but will turn to truth before the eyes of you who rest in | God. |
| W1:109.4 | This is the day of peace. You rest in | God, and while the world is torn by winds of hate, your rest remains |
| W1:109.4 | in your rest, and they will hear and come to you because you rest in | God. They will not hear another voice but yours because you gave your |
| W1:109.4 | will not hear another voice but yours because you gave your voice to | God and now you rest in Him and let Him speak through you. |
| W1:109.6 | its healing. No more fearful dreams will come now that you rest in | God. Take time today to slip away from dreams and into peace. |
| W1:109.7 | you rest, and hourly remember that you came to bring the peace of | God into the world that it might take its rest along with you. |
| W1:109.9 | You rest within the peace of | God today and call upon your brothers from your rest, to draw them to |
| W1:109.10 | them all enter here and rest with you. You rest within the peace of | God today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to take his rest |
| W1:109.11 | We give to those unborn and those passed by, to every Thought of | God, and to the Mind in Which these Thoughts were born and where they |
| W1:109.12 | I rest in | God. |
| W1:110.1 | yourself which have reality, nor changed the universe so that what | God created was replaced by fear and evil, misery and death. |
| W1:110.2 | If you remain as | God created you, fear has no meaning, evil is not real, and misery |
| W1:110.3 | If you remain as | God created you, appearances cannot replace the truth, health cannot |
| W1:110.3 | life or fear for love. All this has not occurred if you remain as | God created you. You need no thought but just this one to let |
| W1:110.4 | saved to quietly extend into a timeless future. If you are as | God created you, then there has been no separation of your mind from |
| W1:110.5 | This is the truth that comes to set you free. This is the truth that | God has promised you. This is the Word in which all sorrow ends. |
| W1:110.7 | I am as | God created me. His Son can suffer nothing. And I am His Son. |
| W1:110.8 | mind, try to discover in your mind the Self Who is the holy Son of | God Himself. Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of God |
| W1:110.8 | of God Himself. Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of | God and brother to the world—the savior who has been forever saved, |
| W1:110.9 | You are as | God created you. Today honor your Self. Let graven images you made to |
| W1:110.9 | Today honor your Self. Let graven images you made to be the Son of | God instead of what He is be worshiped not today. Deep in your mind |
| W1:110.10 | by letting idols go and opening our hands and hearts and minds to | God today. |
| W1:110.12 | I am as | God created me. |
| W1:110.13 | Let us declare this truth as often as we can. This is the Word of | God that sets you free. This is the key that opens up the gate of |
| W1:110.13 | up the gate of Heaven, and which lets you enter in the peace of | God and His eternity. |
| W1:R3.12 | of the day and make it holy, worthy of God's Son, acceptable to | God and to your Self. |
| W1:111.3 | and light and strength are one. I see through strength, the gift of | God to me. My weakness is the dark His gift dispels by giving me His |
| W1:112.2 | light and joy and peace. I welcome them into the home I share with | God, because I am a part of Him. |
| W1:112.3 | [94] I am as | God created me. I will remain forever as I was, Created by the |
| W1:112.7 | I am as | God created me. |
| W1:113.2 | I am One Self, completely whole, at one with all creation and with | God. |
| W1:114.2 | [97] I am Spirit. I am the Son of | God. No body can contain my spirit nor impose on me a limitation God |
| W1:114.2 | of God. No body can contain my spirit nor impose on me a limitation | God created not. |
| W1:114.3 | for salvation. What can my function be but to accept the Word of | God, Who has created me, for what I am and will forever be? |
| W1:115.3 | essential to God's plan for salvation. I am essential to the plan of | God for the salvation of the world. For He gave me His plan that I |
| W1:117.2 | [103] | God, being Love, is also happiness. Let me remember love is happiness |
| W1:117.5 | God, being Love, is also happiness. | |
| W1:119.2 | in any way. I am God's Son whose Self rests safely in the Mind of | God. |
| W1:120.2 | [109] I rest in | God. I rest in God today and let Him work in me and through me, while |
| W1:120.2 | [109] I rest in God. I rest in | God today and let Him work in me and through me, while I rest in Him |
| W1:120.3 | [110] I am as | God created me. I am God's Son. Today I lay aside all sick illusions |
| W1:120.5 | I rest in | God. |
| W1:120.7 | I am as | God created me. |
| W1:121.14 | mortal, fallible, and full of sin and know I am the perfect Son of | God. |
| W1:122.3 | unforgiving eyes upon the world. It lets you recognize the Son of | God and clears your memory of all dead thoughts so that remembrance |
| W1:122.6 | receive. There is no plan but this for the salvation of the Son of | God. Let us today rejoice that this is so, for here we have an |
| W1:122.7 | in aimless wandering again. Accept salvation now. It is the gift of | God and not the world. The world can give no gifts of any value to a |
| W1:122.7 | can give no gifts of any value to a mind which has received what | God has given as its own. God wills salvation be received today and |
| W1:122.7 | value to a mind which has received what God has given as its own. | God wills salvation be received today and that the intricacies of |
| W1:122.15 | I have accepted this as true. Today I have received the gifts of | God. |
| W1:123.3 | far transcends your meager gifts and petty judgments of the one whom | God established as His Son. |
| W1:123.4 | We sing the song of thankfulness today in honor of the Self Which | God has willed to be our true Identity in Him. Today we smile on |
| W1:123.4 | that in our solitude a Friend has come to speak the saving Word of | God to us. |
| W1:123.6 | Receive the thanks of | God today, as you give thanks to Him. For He would offer you the |
| W1:124.1 | Today we will again give thanks for our Identity in | God. Our home is safe, protection guaranteed in all we do, power and |
| W1:124.1 | takes on a shining light which blesses and which heals. At one with | God and with the universe, we go our way rejoicing, with the thought |
| W1:124.1 | with the universe, we go our way rejoicing, with the thought that | God Himself goes everywhere with us. |
| W1:124.2 | everything we see reflects the holiness within the mind at one with | God and with itself. How easily do errors disappear and death give |
| W1:124.2 | everlasting life. Our shining footprints point the way to truth, for | God is our Companion as we walk the world a little while. And those |
| W1:124.3 | after and to those who went before or stayed with us a while. And | God, Who loves us with the equal love in which we were created, |
| W1:124.6 | miracle can ever be denied to those who know that they are one with | God. No thought of theirs but has the power to heal all forms of |
| W1:124.7 | We join in this awareness as we say that we are one with | God. For in these words we say as well that we are saved and healed, |
| W1:124.8 | best, devote a half an hour to the thought that you are one with | God. This is our first attempt at an extended period for which we |
| W1:124.11 | you look on is your own. Count this half hour as your gift to | God, in certainty that His return will be a sense of love you cannot |
| W1:124.13 | Let me remember I am one with | God, at one with all my brothers and my Self, in everlasting holiness |
| W1:125.2 | other means can save it, for God's plan is simply this: the Son of | God is free to save himself, given the Word of God to be his Guide, |
| W1:125.2 | this: the Son of God is free to save himself, given the Word of | God to be his Guide, forever in his mind and at his side to lead him |
| W1:125.3 | from all the judgments which the world has laid upon the Son of | God. It knows him not. Today we will not listen to the world, but |
| W1:125.3 | we will not listen to the world, but wait in silence for the Word of | God. |
| W1:125.4 | Hear, holy Son of | God, your Father speak. His Voice would give to you His holy Word to |
| W1:125.4 | of salvation and the holy time of peace. We gather at the throne of | God today, the quiet place within the mind where He abides forever in |
| W1:125.7 | to the world and choose instead a gentle listening to the Word of | God. He speaks from nearer than your heart to you. His Voice is |
| W1:125.8 | and of Son. In quiet listen to your Self today, and let Him tell you | God has never left His Son, and you have never left your Self. |
| W1:125.9 | be still and listen. You will hear the Word in which the Will of | God the Son joins in His Father's Will, at one with It, with no |
| W1:125.10 | a special purpose for this day—in quiet to receive the Word of | God. |
| W1:126.6 | to restore your unity with him to your awareness. It is not what | God intended it to be for you. |
| W1:127.1 | It never alters with a person or a circumstance. It is the Heart of | God, and also of His Son. |
| W1:127.2 | judge between the righteous and the sinner and perceive the Son of | God in separate parts. |
| W1:127.4 | you are and what love is. Love's meaning is your own, and shared by | God Himself. For what you are is what He is. There is no love but |
| W1:127.7 | Let us together, then, be glad to give some time to | God today and understand there is no better use for time than this. |
| W1:127.7 | upon its meager offerings and senseless gifts, and let the gift of | God replace them all. |
| W1:127.12 | I bless you, brother, with the Love of | God which I would share with you. For I would learn the joyous lesson |
| W1:129.4 | and plain as day, remains unlimited for all eternity. And | God Himself speaks to His Son as His Son speaks to Him. Their |
| W1:130.8 | your hands of all the petty treasures of this world. You wait for | God to help you as you say: |
| W1:130.9 | It is impossible to see two worlds. Let me accept the strength | God offers me and see no value in this world that I may find my |
| W1:130.10 | God will be there. For you have called upon the great unfailing Power | |
| W1:131.6 | not want it. You will reach the goal you really want as certainly as | God created you in sinlessness. |
| W1:131.7 | it is past or in the future. Yet this cannot be, if it is where | God wills His Son to be. How could the Will of God be in the past or |
| W1:131.7 | be, if it is where God wills His Son to be. How could the Will of | God be in the past or yet to happen? What He wills is now, without a |
| W1:131.8 | and uncertain goals, its painful pleasures, and its tragic joys. | God made no contradictions. What denies its own existence and attacks |
| W1:131.9 | God does not suffer conflict. Nor is His creation split in two. How | |
| W1:131.9 | creation split in two. How could it be His Son could be in hell when | God Himself established him in Heaven? Could he lose what the Eternal |
| W1:131.10 | we will not choose a paradox in place of truth. How could the Son of | God make time to take away the Will of God? He thus denies himself |
| W1:131.10 | truth. How could the Son of God make time to take away the Will of | God? He thus denies himself and contradicts what has no opposite. He |
| W1:131.17 | effortlessly past it to the light. Today that day has come. Today | God keeps His ancient promise to His holy Son, as does His Son |
| W1:132.10 | for it contains the firm foundation for today's idea. You are as | God created you. There is no place where you can suffer and no time |
| W1:132.10 | state. How can a world of time and place exist if you remain as | God created you? |
| W1:132.12 | Yet if you are as | God created you, you cannot think apart from Him nor make what does |
| W1:132.12 | and must set it free that you may know the thoughts you share with | God. |
| W1:132.13 | for this release to give you fatherhood, not of illusions, but as | God in truth. God shares His Fatherhood with you who are His Son, for |
| W1:132.13 | to give you fatherhood, not of illusions, but as God in truth. | God shares His Fatherhood with you who are His Son, for He makes no |
| W1:132.14 | There is no world because it is a thought apart from | God and made to separate the Father and the Son and break away a part |
| W1:132.14 | and made to separate the Father and the Son and break away a part of | God Himself and thus destroy His wholeness. Can a world which comes |
| W1:132.17 | I who remain as | God created me would loose the world from all I thought it was. For I |
| W1:134.10 | choosing meaningful and keep your mind as free of guilt and pain as | God Himself intended it to be and as it is in truth. It is but lies |
| W1:135.5 | life? What but the body falters and must fail to serve the Son of | God as worthy host? |
| W1:135.27 | come without defense to learn the part for you within the plan of | God. What little plans or magical beliefs can still have value when |
| W1:135.27 | have value when you have received your function from the Voice of | God Himself? |
| W1:135.29 | I would keep it holy. I will not defend myself, because the Son of | God needs no defense against the truth of his reality. |
| W1:136.11 | believe that Heaven quails before such mad attacks as these, with | God made blind by your illusions, truth turned into lies, and all the |
| W1:136.12 | God knows not of your plans to change His Will. The universe remains | |
| W1:136.13 | away its gifts, and yet it knows with perfect certainty that what | God wills for you must be received. |
| W1:136.14 | demonstrates that time is an illusion. For it lets you think what | God has given you is not the truth right now, as it must be. The |
| W1:136.14 | given you is not the truth right now, as it must be. The thoughts of | God are quite apart from time. For time is but another meaningless |
| W1:136.14 | but another meaningless defense you made against the truth. Yet what | God wills is here, and you remain as He created you. |
| W1:137.11 | the grace of healing it is given them to give. What is opposed to | God does not exist. And who accepts it not within his mind becomes a |
| W1:137.13 | curse for blessing, pain for joy, and separation for the peace of | God. Is not a minute of the hour worth the giving to receive a gift |
| W1:137.16 | you receive, to hold but what you give, and to receive the Word of | God to take the place of all the foolish thoughts that ever were |
| W1:139.1 | end of choice. For here we come to a decision to accept ourselves as | God created us. And what is choice except uncertainty of what we are? |
| W1:139.7 | for what you are is certain. It is set forever in the holy Mind of | God and in your own. It is so far beyond all doubt and question that |
| W1:139.9 | about yourself and go your way rejoicing in the endless Love of | God. It is but this that we are asked to do. It is but this that we |
| W1:139.11 | I will accept Atonement for myself, for I remain as | God created me. |
| W1:139.12 | We have not lost the knowledge that | God gave to us when He created us like Him. We can remember it for |
| W1:139.13 | foolish cobwebs which the world would weave around the holy Son of | God. And learn the fragile nature of the chains that seem to keep the |
| W1:139.14 | I will accept Atonement for myself, for I remain as | God created me. |
| W1:140.5 | Peace be to you who have been cured in | God and not in idle dreams. For cure must come from holiness, and |
| W1:140.5 | from holiness, and holiness cannot be found where sin is cherished. | God abides in holy temples. He is barred where sin has entered. Yet |
| W1:140.10 | which will cure all ills as one, restoring saneness to the Son of | God. No voice but this can cure. Today we hear a single Voice which |
| W1:140.10 | all illusions end, and peace returns to the eternal quiet home of | God. |
| W1:R4.3 | My mind holds only what I think with | God. |
| W1:R4.6 | And yet your mind holds only what you think with | God. Your self-deceptions cannot take the place of truth. No more |
| W1:R4.8 | My mind holds only what I think with | God. |
| W1:R4.9 | this thought will be enough to set the day along the lines which | God appointed and to place His Mind in charge of all the thoughts you |
| W1:R4.10 | time for its intended purpose. Let each word shine with the meaning | God has given it as it was given to you through His Voice. Let each |
| W1:R4.12 | light, from grief to joy, from pain to peace, from sin to holiness. | God offers thanks to you who practice thus the keeping of His Word. |
| W1:142.2 | [124] Let me remember I am one with | God. |
| W1:151.3 | think more real than what is witnessed to by the eternal Voice of | God Himself. |
| W1:151.6 | will clear the way to recognize yourself and let the Voice for | God alone be Judge of what is worthy of your own belief. |
| W1:151.7 | merely bear false witness to God's Son. He recognizes only what | God loves, and in the holy light of what He sees do all the ego's |
| W1:151.8 | before Its face. Christ cannot doubt Himself. The Voice of | God can only honor Him, rejoicing in His perfect, everlasting |
| W1:151.10 | no longer doubt that only good can come to you who are beloved of | God, for He will judge all happenings and teach the single lesson |
| W1:151.13 | wordlessly today, except at the beginning of the time you spend with | God. We introduce these times with but a single, slow repeating of |
| W1:151.13 | them back to you as clean ideas that do not contradict the Will of | God. |
| W1:151.14 | as miracles which joyously proclaim the wholeness and the happiness | God wills His Son as proof of His eternal Love. And as each thought |
| W1:151.15 | your thoughts are purified. So are you taught to teach the Son of | God the holy lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when |
| W1:151.15 | his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you hear the Voice for | God give honor to God's Son. And everyone will share the thoughts |
| W1:151.17 | world the joyous news that truth has no illusions and the peace of | God, through us, belongs to everyone. |
| W1:152.5 | As | God created you, you must remain unchangeable with transitory states |
| W1:152.6 | that you believe to think you made the world you see is arrogance? | God made it not. Of this you can be sure. What can He know of the |
| W1:152.7 | To think that | God made chaos, contradicts His Will, invented opposites to truth, |
| W1:152.7 | would see at once these things are not of Him. And can you see what | God created not? To think you can is merely to believe you can |
| W1:152.7 | not? To think you can is merely to believe you can perceive what | God willed not to be. And what could be more arrogant than this? |
| W1:152.10 | we accept of Him that which we are and humbly recognize the Son of | God. |
| W1:152.14 | will come again to our awareness, grateful to restore His home to | God as it was meant to be. |
| W1:152.15 | speaks for you and for your Father. He will substitute the peace of | God for all your frantic thoughts, the truth of God for |
| W1:152.15 | the peace of God for all your frantic thoughts, the truth of | God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for your illusions of yourself. |
| W1:153.5 | You do not realize what you have done to sabotage the holy peace of | God by your defensiveness. For you behold the Son of God as but a |
| W1:153.5 | holy peace of God by your defensiveness. For you behold the Son of | God as but a victim to attack by fantasies, by dreams, and by |
| W1:153.7 | Father's anger. What can save you now from your delusion of an angry | god whose fearful image you believe you see at work in all the evils |
| W1:153.8 | to cross our minds, and we mistook the figures in it for the Son of | God, its tiny instant for eternity. |
| W1:153.10 | possibly be needed by the ones who are among the chosen ones of | God by His election and their own as well? |
| W1:153.11 | of God's ministers to help their brothers choose as they have done. | God has elected all, but few have come to realize His Will is but |
| W1:153.13 | from the pure and holy minds of Heaven's children and the Son of | God. We pause but for a moment more to play our final happy game upon |
| W1:153.15 | we will find that half an hour is too short a time to spend with | God. Nor will we willingly give less at night in gratitude and joy. |
| W1:153.16 | peace, as we remember to be faithful to the will we share with | God. At times, perhaps, a minute, even less, will be the most that we |
| W1:153.16 | will be unable to withdraw a little while and turn our thoughts to | God. |
| W1:153.17 | Yet when we can, we will observe our trust as ministers of | God in hourly remembrance of our mission and His Love. And we will |
| W1:153.21 | be no doubt that you will reach your final goal. The ministers of | God can never fail because the love and strength and peace that shine |
| W1:154.2 | Whatever your appointed role may be, it was selected by the Voice for | God, Whose function is to speak for you as well. Seeing your |
| W1:154.3 | entails, and to succeed in everything you do that is related to it. | God has joined His Son in this, and thus His Son becomes His |
| W1:154.4 | It is this joining through the Voice of | God of Father and of Son that sets apart salvation from the world. It |
| W1:154.4 | salvation from all sin, with guilt abolished in the mind that | God created sinless. Now this mind becomes aware again of Who created |
| W1:154.4 | itself. So is its Self the one reality in which its will and that of | God are joined. |
| W1:154.7 | fulfills his role by giving all the messages away. The messengers of | God perform their part by their acceptance of His messages as for |
| W1:154.8 | Would you receive the messages of | God? For thus do you become His messengers. You are appointed now. |
| W1:154.9 | You who are now the messengers of | God receive His messages, for that is part of your appointed role. He |
| W1:154.9 | yet to be accomplished. He Who has received for you the messages of | God would have them be received by you as well. For thus do you |
| W1:154.12 | miracles and then receive a thousand more but will not know that | God Himself has left no gift beyond what you already have nor has |
| W1:154.14 | I am among the ministers of | God, and I am grateful that I have the means by which to recognize |
| W1:155.5 | while you serve yourself and set their footsteps on the way which | God has opened up to you, and them through you. |
| W1:155.8 | only gain. Illusion can but seem to hold in chains the holy Son of | God. It is but from illusions he is saved. As they step back, he |
| W1:155.11 | the things that pass, and miracles are purposeless, the holy Son of | God will make no journeys. There will be no wish to be illusion |
| W1:155.12 | We walk to | God. Pause and reflect on this. Could any way be holier or more |
| W1:155.12 | more than everything or offer less and still content the holy Son of | God? We walk to God. The truth that walks before us now is one with |
| W1:155.12 | or offer less and still content the holy Son of God? We walk to | God. The truth that walks before us now is one with Him and leads us |
| W1:155.13 | Your feet are safely set upon the way that leads the world to | God. Look not to ways which seem to lead you elsewhere. Dreams are |
| W1:156.1 | leave not their source. If this be true, how can you be apart from | God? How could you walk the world alone and separate from your Source? |
| W1:156.2 | uncertain and in others sure. You cannot walk the world apart from | God because you could not be without Him. He is what your life is. |
| W1:156.5 | thus they see in you their holiness, saluting you as savior and as | God. Accept their reverence, for it is due to Holiness itself Which |
| W1:156.6 | ridiculous perhaps, but who would waste an instant in approach to | God Himself for such a senseless whim? |
| W1:156.7 | all its fantasies. They keep you bound no longer. The approach to | God is near. And in the little interval of doubt which still remains, |
| W1:156.8 | has ended doubting and established peace. Today let doubting cease. | God speaks for you in answering your question with these words: |
| W1:156.9 | I walk with | God in perfect holiness. I light the world, I light my mind and all |
| W1:156.9 | holiness. I light the world, I light my mind and all the minds which | God created one with me. |
| W1:157.5 | your mind that it becomes the touchstone for the holy thoughts of | God. |
| W1:158.7 | law. It does not look upon a body and mistake it for the Son whom | God created. It beholds a light beyond the body, an idea beyond what |
| W1:158.8 | this you give today—see no one as a body. Greet him as the Son of | God he is, acknowledging that he is one with you in holiness. |
| W1:158.10 | to let Christ's vision shine on you and offer you the peace of | God. |
| W1:159.3 | pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so like to Heaven that what | God created perfect can be mirrored there. The darkened glass the |
| W1:159.10 | of miracles set out for you to give. Are you not worth the gift when | God appointed it be given you? Judge not God's Son, but follow in the |
| W1:159.10 | the means for a return to our unlost and everlasting sanctity in | God. |
| W1:160.4 | the stranger? Is it fear or you that is unsuited to the home which | God provided for His Son? Is fear His own, created in His likeness? |
| W1:160.7 | him your rightful place. Yet is your Self as certain of Its own as | God is of His Son. He cannot be confused about creation. He is sure |
| W1:160.8 | to your Father, nor is your Creator stranger made to you. Whom | God has joined remains forever one, at home in Him, no stranger to |
| W1:161.1 | by, and Heaven now restored. Here is the answer of the Voice of | God. |
| W1:161.9 | eyes behold in one whom Heaven cherishes, the angels love, and | God created perfect. This is his reality. And in Christ's vision is |
| W1:161.14 | Give me your blessing, holy Son of | God. I would behold you with the eyes of Christ, and see my perfect |
| W1:161.15 | He will answer Whom you called upon, for He will hear the Voice of | God in you and answer in your own. Behold him now whom you had seen |
| W1:162.1 | you as you advance. These words are sacred, for they are the words | God gave in answer to the world you made. By them it disappears, and |
| W1:162.1 | illusions vanish as these words are spoken. For they come from | God. |
| W1:162.4 | them. So wholly is it changed that it is now the treasury in which | God places all His gifts and all His Love to be distributed to all |
| W1:162.4 | because its sharing is unlimited. And thus you learn to think with | God. Christ's vision has restored your sight by salvaging your mind. |
| W1:162.6 | invitation, eager to unite with one like him in holiness? You are as | God created you. These words dispel the night, and darkness is no |
| W1:162.6 | is come today to bless the world, for you have recognized the Son of | God, and in your recognition is the world's. |
| W1:163.2 | Embodiment of fear, the host of sin, | god of the guilty, and the lord of all illusions and deceptions, does |
| W1:163.4 | bow down to idols such as this? Here is the strength and might of | God Himself perceived within an idol made of dust. Here is the |
| W1:163.4 | perceived within an idol made of dust. Here is the opposite of | God proclaimed as lord of all creation, stronger than God's Will for |
| W1:163.4 | the headstone death has placed upon the body of the holy Son of | God. |
| W1:163.5 | for he has passed to dust. It says but this: “Here lies a witness | God is dead.” And this it writes again and still again, while all the |
| W1:163.7 | The idea of the death of | God is so preposterous that even the insane have difficulty in |
| W1:163.7 | even the insane have difficulty in believing it. For it implies that | God was once alive and somehow perished, killed, apparently, by those |
| W1:163.8 | it now in every form for their salvation and our own as well. | God made not death. Whatever form it takes must therefore be |
| W1:164.1 | for beyond them all He hears the song of Heaven and the Voice of | God more clear, more meaningful, more near. |
| W1:164.9 | joy this very day. Practice in earnest, and the gift is yours. Would | God deceive you? Can His promise fail? Can you withhold so little |
| W1:165.2 | The Thought of | God created you. It left you not, nor have you ever been apart from |
| W1:165.2 | everything is one with you because It left you not. The Thought of | God protects you, cares for you, makes soft your resting place and |
| W1:165.2 | and everlasting life shine in your mind because the Thought of | God has left you not and still abides with you. |
| W1:165.4 | within it. Till you welcome it as yours, uncertainty remains. Yet | God is fair. Sureness is not required to receive what only your |
| W1:165.5 | your mind has come to lay aside denial and accept the Thought of | God as its inheritance. |
| W1:165.6 | of the world. Your destiny lies there and nowhere else. Would | God consent to let His Son remain forever starved by his denial of |
| W1:165.7 | hope. For hope indeed is justified. Your doubts are meaningless, for | God is certain. And the Thought of Him is never absent. Sureness must |
| W1:165.7 | have interposed between Him and your certainty of Him. We count on | God and not upon ourselves to give us certainty. And in His Name we |
| W1:166.2 | underlies the making of the world. This world is not the Will of | God, and so it is not real. Yet those who think it real must still |
| W1:166.2 | believes in two creators or in one, himself alone. But never in one | God. |
| W1:166.3 | The gifts of | God are not acceptable to anyone who holds such strange beliefs. He |
| W1:166.5 | to nowhere. Still he wanders on in misery and poverty, alone though | God is with him, and a treasure his so great that everything the |
| W1:166.8 | And what becomes of all the tragedy you sought to make for him whom | God intended only joy? |
| W1:166.10 | God's Will does not oppose. It merely is. It is not | God you have imprisoned in your plan to lose your Self. He does not |
| W1:166.12 | saved you from the solitude you sought to make in which to hide from | God. He has reminded you of all the gifts that God has given you. He |
| W1:166.12 | in which to hide from God. He has reminded you of all the gifts that | God has given you. He speaks as well of what becomes your will when |
| W1:166.15 | Become the living proof of what Christ's touch can offer everyone. | God has entrusted all His gifts to you. Be witness in your happiness |
| W1:166.15 | gifts and feel the touch of Christ. Such is your mission now. For | God entrusts the giving of His gifts to all who have received them. |
| W1:167.1 | It does not have degrees. It is the one condition in which all that | God created share. Like all His thoughts, it has no opposite. There |
| W1:167.1 | all His thoughts, it has no opposite. There is no death because what | God created shares His Life. There is no death because an opposite to |
| W1:167.1 | created shares His Life. There is no death because an opposite to | God does not exist. There is no death because the Father and the Son |
| W1:167.3 | It is why you cannot die. Its truth established you as one with | God. |
| W1:167.8 | God creates only mind awake. He does not sleep, and His creations | |
| W1:167.8 | of life. Forever unopposed by opposites of any kind, the thoughts of | God remain forever changeless with the power to extend forever |
| W1:167.10 | even an instant where the thought of life eternal has been set by | God Himself. |
| W1:168.1 | God speaks to us. Shall we not speak to Him? He is not distant. He | |
| W1:168.3 | Today we ask of | God the gift He has most carefully preserved within our hearts, |
| W1:168.3 | our hearts, waiting to be acknowledged. This the gift by which | God leans to us and lifts us up, taking salvation's final step |
| W1:168.4 | God loves His Son. Request Him now to give the means by which this | |
| W1:169.1 | Grace is an aspect of the Love of | God which is most like the state prevailing in the unity of truth. It |
| W1:169.2 | Grace is acceptance of the Love of | God within a world of seeming hate and fear. By grace alone the hate |
| W1:169.4 | determined it. And yet we urge you to bear witness to the Word of | God to hasten the experience of truth and speed its advent into every |
| W1:169.5 | Oneness is simply the idea | God is. And in His Being, He encompasses all things. No mind holds |
| W1:169.6 | of time, forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. The Son of | God has merely disappeared into His Father, as his Father has in him. |
| W1:169.10 | nearer each uncertain heart that does not beat as yet in tune with | God. Forgiveness is the central theme which runs throughout |
| W1:170.7 | With love as enemy must cruelty become a | god, and gods demand that those who worship them obey their dictates |
| W1:170.8 | Today we look upon this cruel | god dispassionately. And we note that though his lips are smeared |
| W1:170.9 | piece of stone? Or will you make another idol to replace it? For the | god of cruelty takes many forms. Another can be found. |
| W1:170.10 | block, impenetrable, fearful and beyond surmounting, is the fear of | God Himself. Here is the basic premise which enthrones the thought of |
| W1:170.10 | Here is the basic premise which enthrones the thought of fear as | god. For fear is loved by those who worship it, and love appears to |
| W1:170.11 | beyond conception, striking down all who acknowledge Him to be their | God. |
| W1:170.12 | for the last time upon this bit of carven stone you made and call it | god no longer. You have reached this place before, but you have |
| W1:170.12 | have reached this place before, but you have chosen that this cruel | god remain with you in still another form, and so the fear of God |
| W1:170.12 | cruel god remain with you in still another form, and so the fear of | God returned with you. This time you leave it here. And you return to |
| W1:170.13 | to Christ, and He looks through them. Now your voice belongs to | God and echoes His. And now your heart remains at peace forever. You |
| W1:170.13 | given by your Creator, are restored to you at last. The Call of | God is heard and answered. Now has fear made way for love, as God |
| W1:170.13 | of God is heard and answered. Now has fear made way for love, as | God Himself replaces cruelty. |
| W1:R5.5 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:R5.10 | to you from Him Who sees your bitter need and knows the answer | God has given Him. Together we review these thoughts. Together we |
| W1:R5.10 | and effort to them. And together we will teach them to our brothers. | God would not have Heaven incomplete. It waits for you, as I do. I am |
| W1:R5.12 | Your glory undefiled forever. And your wholeness now complete, as | God established it. You are His Son, completing His extension in your |
| W1:R5.13 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:171.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:171.2 | [151] All things are echoes of the Voice of | God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:171.2 | [151] All things are echoes of the Voice of God. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:171.3 | [152] The power of decision is my own. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:172.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:172.2 | [153] In my defenselessness my safety lies. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:172.3 | [154] I am among the ministers of | God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:172.3 | [154] I am among the ministers of God. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:173.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:173.2 | [155] I will step back and let Him lead the way. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:173.3 | [156] I walk with | God in perfect holiness. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:173.3 | [156] I walk with God in perfect holiness. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:174.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:174.2 | [157] Into His Presence would I enter now. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:174.3 | [158] Today I learn to give as I receive. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:175.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:175.2 | [159] I give the miracles I have received. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:175.3 | [160] I am at home. Fear is the stranger here. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:176.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:176.2 | [161] Give me your blessing, holy Son of | God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:176.2 | [161] Give me your blessing, holy Son of God. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:176.3 | [162] I am as | God created me. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:176.3 | [162] I am as God created me. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:177.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:177.2 | [163] There is no death. The Son of | God is free. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:177.2 | [163] There is no death. The Son of God is free. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:177.3 | [164] Now are we one with Him Who is our Source. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:178.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:178.2 | [165] Let not my mind deny the thought of | God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:178.2 | [165] Let not my mind deny the thought of God. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:178.3 | [166] I am entrusted with the gifts of | God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:178.3 | [166] I am entrusted with the gifts of God. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:179.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:179.2 | [167] There is one life, and that I share with | God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:179.2 | [167] There is one life, and that I share with God. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:179.3 | [168] Your grace is given me. I claim it now. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:180.1 | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. | |
| W1:180.2 | [169] By grace I live. By grace I am released. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:180.3 | [170] There is no cruelty in | God and none in me. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:180.3 | [170] There is no cruelty in God and none in me. | God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:181.10 | to the experience we ask for now. Our sinlessness is but the Will of | God. This instant is our willing one with His. |
| W1:183.4 | Repeat the Name of | God and little names have lost their meaning. No temptation but |
| W1:183.4 | the names of all the gods you value. They have lost the name of | god you gave them. They become anonymous and valueless to you, |
| W1:183.4 | anonymous and valueless to you, although before you let the Name of | God replace their little names, you stood before them worshipfully, |
| W1:183.5 | Repeat the Name of | God and call upon your Self, Whose Name is His. Repeat His Name and |
| W1:183.5 | earth slip into right perspective. Those who call upon the Name of | God cannot mistake the nameless for the Name, nor sin for grace, nor |
| W1:183.5 | for the Name, nor sin for grace, nor bodies for the holy Son of | God. |
| W1:183.6 | quiet minds, you have established there an altar which reaches to | God Himself and to His Son. Practice but this today; repeat God's |
| W1:183.8 | Thus do we give an invitation which can never be refused. And | God will come and answer it Himself. Think not He hears the little |
| W1:183.11 | Turn to the Name of | God for your release, and it is given you. No prayer but this is |
| W1:183.11 | thought he made be nameless now, and in their place the holy Name of | God becomes his judgment of their worthlessness. |
| W1:183.12 | have disappeared. The universe consists of nothing but the Son of | God who calls upon his Father. And his Father's Voice gives answer in |
| W1:184.10 | forget the darkness. Here you understand the Word, the Name Which | God has given you; the One Identity Which all things share; the one |
| W1:184.11 | them but for convenience, yet do not forget they share the Name of | God along with you. |
| W1:184.12 | God has no name. And yet His Name becomes the final lesson that all | |
| W1:184.12 | reflection. Every gap is closed and separation healed. The Name of | God is the inheritance He gave to those who chose the teaching of the |
| W1:184.13 | No one can fail who seeks the meaning of the Name of | God. Experience must come to supplement the word. But first you must |
| W1:185.1 | Heaven would be completely given back to full awareness, memory of | God entirely restored, the resurrection of all creation fully |
| W1:185.2 | He cannot make a hell and think it real. He wants the peace of | God, and it is given him. For that is all he wants, and that is all |
| W1:185.3 | one intent become so strong that what they will becomes the Will of | God. For minds can only join in truth. In dreams no two can share the |
| W1:185.4 | They merely bargain. And what bargain can give them the peace of | God? Illusions come to take His place. And what He means is lost to |
| W1:185.5 | To mean you want the peace of | God is to renounce all dreams. For no one means these words who wants |
| W1:185.7 | that we really mean the words we say. We want the peace of | God. This is no idle wish. These words do not request another dream |
| W1:185.9 | “Is this what I would have, in place of Heaven and the peace of | God?” This is the choice you make. Be not deceived that it is |
| W1:185.10 | You want the peace of | God. And so do all who seem to seek for dreams. For them as well as |
| W1:185.11 | No one who truly seeks the peace of | God can fail to find it. For he merely asks that he deceive himself |
| W1:185.11 | unanswered who requests an answer which is his to give? The peace of | God is yours. |
| W1:185.12 | you? And how could your request be limited to you alone? No gift of | God can be unshared. It is this attribute that sets the gifts of God |
| W1:185.12 | of God can be unshared. It is this attribute that sets the gifts of | God apart from every dream that ever seemed to take the place of |
| W1:185.13 | No one can lose and everyone must gain whenever any gift of | God has been requested and received by anyone. God gives but to |
| W1:185.13 | whenever any gift of God has been requested and received by anyone. | God gives but to unite. To take away is meaningless to Him. And when |
| W1:185.14 | that hate has sought to sever, but which still remains as | God created it. With help like this beside us, can we fail today as |
| W1:185.14 | like this beside us, can we fail today as we request the peace of | God be given us? |
| W1:186.1 | It does not judge your proper role. It but acknowledges the Will of | God is done on earth as well as Heaven. It unites all wills on earth |
| W1:186.3 | that modesty is outraged. It is pride that would deny the call of | God Himself. |
| W1:186.6 | is this image which quails and retreats in terror as the Voice for | God assures you that you have the strength, the wisdom, and the |
| W1:186.6 | the truth in you, and misery can come not near the holy home of | God. |
| W1:186.7 | All this the Voice for | God relates to you. And as He speaks, the image trembles and seeks to |
| W1:186.7 | not upon this little pile of dust. What can it tell the holy Son of | God? Why need he be concerned with it at all? |
| W1:186.8 | And so we find our peace. We will accept the function | God has given us, for all illusions rest upon the weird belief that |
| W1:186.9 | Is this the Son of | God? Could He create such instability and call it Son? He Who is |
| W1:187.9 | to look upon such lovely holiness? The great illusion of the fear of | God diminishes to nothingness before the purity that you will look on |
| W1:187.10 | one in thought, for fear has gone. And here, before the altar to one | God, one Father, one Creator and one thought, we stand together as |
| W1:187.10 | Father, one Creator and one thought, we stand together as one Son of | God. Not separate from Him Who is our Source; not distant from one |
| W1:187.10 | as one, we stand in blessedness and give as we receive. The Name of | God is on our lips. And as we look within, we see the purity of |
| W1:187.11 | see it everywhere. We would behold it shining with the grace of | God in everyone. We would not have it be withheld from anything we |
| W1:188.3 | The peace of | God is shining in you now and from your heart extends around the |
| W1:188.4 | all measure, given and returned. To you, the giver of the gift, does | God Himself give thanks. And in His blessing does the light in you |
| W1:188.5 | The peace of | God can never be contained. Who recognizes it within himself must |
| W1:188.5 | He forgives because he recognized the truth in him. The peace of | God is shining in you now and in all living things. In quietness is |
| W1:188.6 | of worldly things outside yourself, become the holy messengers of | God Himself. These thoughts you think with Him. They recognize their |
| W1:188.6 | recognize their home. And they point surely to their Source where | God the Father and the Son are one. |
| W1:188.7 | you are the co-creator of all things that live. For as the peace of | God is shining in you, it must shine on them. |
| W1:188.8 | back to where they fall in line with all the thoughts we share with | God. We will not let them stray. We let the light within our minds |
| W1:188.9 | our minds restored with them, and we acknowledge that the peace of | God still shines in us and from us to all living things that share |
| W1:188.10 | The peace of | God is shining in me now. Let all things shine upon me in that peace, |
| W1:189.1 | is a reflection of the thought we practice now. To feel the Love of | God within you is to see the world anew, shining in innocence, alive |
| W1:189.3 | This is the world the Love of | God reveals. It is so different from the world you see through |
| W1:189.5 | in death's sharp-pointed, bony fingers. If you feel the Love of | God within you, you look out upon a world of mercy and of love. |
| W1:189.7 | this: be still and lay aside all thoughts of what you are and what | God is, all concepts you have learned about the world, all images you |
| W1:189.7 | forget this course, and come with wholly empty hands unto your | God. |
| W1:189.8 | to allow all obstacles that you have interposed between the Son and | God the Father to be quietly removed forever. God will do His part in |
| W1:189.8 | between the Son and God the Father to be quietly removed forever. | God will do His part in joyful and immediate response. Ask and |
| W1:189.8 | Ask and receive. But do not make demands nor point the road to | God by which He should appear to you. The way to reach Him is merely |
| W1:189.9 | denied is surely there if it be true, and can be surely reached. | God knows His Son and knows the way to him. He does not need His Son |
| W1:190.1 | it takes which will not disappear if seen aright. For pain proclaims | God cruel. How could it be real in any form? It witnesses to God the |
| W1:190.1 | God cruel. How could it be real in any form? It witnesses to | God the Father's hatred of His Son, the sinfulness He sees in him, |
| W1:190.3 | Pain is a sign illusions reign in place of truth. It demonstrates | God is denied, confused with fear, perceived as mad, and seen as |
| W1:190.3 | with fear, perceived as mad, and seen as traitor to Himself. If | God is real, there is no pain. If pain is real, there is no God. For |
| W1:190.3 | If God is real, there is no pain. If pain is real, there is no | God. For vengeance is not part of love. And fear, denying love and |
| W1:190.3 | part of love. And fear, denying love and using pain to prove that | God is dead, has shown that death is victor over life. The body is |
| W1:190.3 | has shown that death is victor over life. The body is the Son of | God, corruptible in death, as mortal as the Father he has slain. |
| W1:190.6 | entirely as you elect to change your mind and choose the joy of | God as what you really want. Your Self is radiant in this holy joy, |
| W1:190.8 | Pain is the ransom you have gladly paid not to be free. In pain is | God denied the Son He loves. In pain does fear appear to triumph over |
| W1:190.9 | Here will you understand there is no pain. Here does the joy of | God belong to you. |
| W1:190.11 | our joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, the peace of | God instead of conflict, and the light of Heaven for the darkness of |
| W1:191.1 | have done by giving to the world the role of jailer to the Son of | God. What could it be but vicious and afraid, fearful of shadows, |
| W1:191.3 | and ghostly thought which mocks creation and which laughs at | God. Deny your own Identity, and you assail the universe alone, |
| W1:191.4 | except a game you play in which identity can be denied? You are as | God created you. All else but this one thing is folly to believe. In |
| W1:191.6 | One holy thought like this, and you are free: you are the holy Son of | God Himself. And with this holy thought, you learn as well that you |
| W1:191.8 | I am the holy Son of | God Himself. I cannot suffer, cannot be in pain; I cannot lose, nor |
| W1:191.10 | time began. For time has lost its hold upon the world. The Son of | God has come in glory to redeem the lost, to save the helpless, and |
| W1:191.12 | Then let the Son of | God awaken from his sleep, and opening his holy eyes return again to |
| W1:191.13 | die till you accept your own eternal life. You are the holy Son of | God Himself. Remember this and all the world is free. Remember this |
| W1:192.1 | preserved, extending love, creating in its name, forever one with | God and with your Self. Yet what can such a function mean within a |
| W1:192.3 | come to earth. For being Heaven-borne, it has no form at all. Yet | God created One Who has the power to translate into form the wholly |
| W1:192.4 | and leaves the world a clean and unmarked slate on which the Word of | God can now replace the senseless symbols written there before. |
| W1:192.6 | the body is its home. Only forgiveness can restore the peace that | God intended for His holy Son. Only forgiveness can persuade the Son |
| W1:192.7 | give up nothing. But we have indeed been given everything by | God. Yet do we need forgiveness to perceive that this is so. Without |
| W1:192.10 | Be merciful today. The Son of | God deserves your mercy. It is he who asks that you accept the way to |
| W1:192.10 | forgive him, that you may accept him back as your Identity. He is as | God created him. And you are what he is. Forgive him now his sins, |
| W1:193.1 | God does not know of learning. Yet His Will extends to what He does | |
| W1:193.2 | God sees no contradictions. Yet His Son believes he sees them. Thus | |
| W1:193.2 | give him vision that will lead him back to where perception ceases. | God does not perceive at all. Yet it is He Who gives the means by |
| W1:193.3 | God offers no forgiveness, for He knows no sin is possible. And yet | |
| W1:193.3 | by every mind which had forgotten it as it exists in Heaven and in | God. Thus He encompassed what He could not see nor understand by |
| W1:193.4 | The One Whom | God created to replace the foolish thoughts which crept into the mind |
| W1:193.5 | These are the lessons | God would have you learn. His Will reflects them all, and they |
| W1:193.12 | God would not have you suffer thus. He would help you forgive | |
| W1:193.12 | help you forgive yourself. His Son does not remember who he is. And | God would have him not forget His Love and all the gifts His Love |
| W1:193.12 | Heaven's Teacher sets before you that all pain may disappear and | God may be remembered by His Son? |
| W1:193.13 | All things are lessons | God would have you learn. He would not leave an unforgiving thought |
| W1:193.13 | yet unshed and none but waiting their appointed time to fall. For | God has willed that laughter should replace each one and that His Son |
| W1:193.15 | Truth is His message; truth His teaching is. His are the lessons | God would have us learn. |
| W1:193.17 | unbound, in peace eternal in the world of time. This is the lesson | God would have you learn: there is a way to look on everything that |
| W1:193.20 | you hold the key that opens Heaven's gate and brings the Love of | God the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. God |
| W1:193.20 | of God the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. | God will take this final step Himself. Do not deny the little steps |
| W1:194.1 | place of peace where you await with certainty the final step of | God. How far are we progressing now from earth! How close are we |
| W1:194.3 | In no one instant can one even die. And so each instant given unto | God in passing, with the next one given Him already, is a time of |
| W1:194.4 | God holds your future as He holds your past and present. They are one | |
| W1:194.7 | worry can beset the one who gives his future to the loving hands of | God? What can he suffer? What can cause him pain or bring experience |
| W1:194.8 | Place, then, your future in the hands of | God. For thus you call the memory of Him to come again, replacing all |
| W1:194.8 | creature not respond with healed perception? Who entrusts himself to | God has also placed the world within the hands to which he has |
| W1:195.4 | You do not offer | God your gratitude because your brother is more slave than you, nor |
| W1:195.4 | can only be sincere if it is joined to love. We offer thanks to | God our Father that in us all things will find their freedom. It will |
| W1:195.6 | we offer thanks for nothing and we fail to recognize the gifts of | God to us. |
| W1:195.8 | aside. What more remains as obstacles to peace? The fear of | God is now undone at last, and we forgive without comparing. Thus we |
| W1:195.9 | the single thought we substitute for these insane perceptions. | God has cared for us and calls us Son. Can there be more than this? |
| W1:195.10 | is but an aspect of the love which is the Source of all creation. | God gives thanks to you, His Son, for being what you are—His own |
| W1:195.10 | road except the way of gratitude, and thus we go who walk the way to | God. |
| W1:196.4 | years can easily be done in just one instant by the grace of | God. |
| W1:196.5 | to be salvation. Yet it merely stood for the belief the fear of | God is real. And what is that but hell? Who could believe his Father |
| W1:196.6 | must be entirely impossible, how could there be escape? The fear of | God is real to anyone who thinks this thought is true. And he will |
| W1:196.8 | impossible that you be hurt except by your own thoughts, the fear of | God must disappear. You do not now believe that fear is caused |
| W1:196.8 | disappear. You do not now believe that fear is caused without. And | God, Whom you had thought to banish, can be welcomed back within the |
| W1:196.9 | and pursuit. Nor need you hide in terror from the deadly fear of | God projection hides behind. The thing you dread the most is your |
| W1:196.10 | within. It seemed to be an enemy outside you had to fear. And thus a | god outside yourself became your mortal enemy—the source of fear. |
| W1:196.11 | instant is the time as well in which salvation comes. For fear of | God has disappeared. And you can call on Him to save you from |
| W1:196.12 | There is no thought of | God that does not go with you to help you reach that instant and to |
| W1:196.12 | and to go beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. When the fear of | God is gone, there are no obstacles that still remain between you and |
| W1:196.12 | are no obstacles that still remain between you and the holy peace of | God. How kind and merciful is the idea we practice! Give it welcome, |
| W1:197.2 | How easily are | God and guilt confused by those who know not what their thoughts can |
| W1:197.4 | accepted universally and thankfully acknowledged by the Heart of | God Himself. And would you take them back when He has gratefully |
| W1:197.5 | God blesses every gift you give to Him and every gift is given Him | |
| W1:197.5 | Him because it can be given only to yourself, and what belongs to | God must be His own. Yet you will never realize His gifts are sure, |
| W1:197.6 | think you see outside yourself, and you can never think the gifts of | God are lent but for a little while before He snatches them away |
| W1:197.7 | forever over. Thank your Self for this, for He is grateful only unto | God, and He gives thanks for you unto Himself. To everyone who lives |
| W1:197.8 | Thanks be to you, the holy Son of | God, for as you were created you contain all things within your Self. |
| W1:197.8 | you contain all things within your Self. And you are still as | God created you. Nor can you dim the light of your perfection. In |
| W1:197.8 | you dim the light of your perfection. In your heart, the Heart of | God is laid. He holds you dear because you are Himself. All gratitude |
| W1:197.9 | can only be His thoughts, sharing with Him the holy thoughts of | God. Earn now the gratitude you have denied yourself when you forgot |
| W1:197.9 | the gratitude you have denied yourself when you forgot the function | God has given you. But never think that He has ever ceased to offer |
| W1:198.3 | to where the truth must be and gives direction with the certainty of | God Himself. It is a dream in which the Son of God awakens to his |
| W1:198.3 | with the certainty of God Himself. It is a dream in which the Son of | God awakens to his Self and to his Father, knowing They are one. |
| W1:198.4 | death. How could there be another way, when this one is the plan of | God Himself? And why would you oppose it, quarrel with it, seek to |
| W1:198.6 | joy that ever can be found upon this earth. His words are born in | God, and come to you with Heaven's love upon them. Those who hear His |
| W1:198.6 | merge as one at last. And as this one will fade away, the Word of | God will come to take its place, for it will be remembered then and |
| W1:198.8 | mad to think that you could be condemned and that the holy Son of | God can die! The stillness of your Self remains unmoved, untouched by |
| W1:198.12 | this one dream. This is the gift the Holy Spirit holds for you from | God your Father. Let today be celebrated both on earth and in your |
| W1:198.13 | face of earth, made quiet in a dreamless sleep. And now the Word of | God alone remains upon it. Only that can be perceived an instant |
| W1:198.13 | you ever thought you made completely vanished from the mind which | God forever knows to be His only Son. |
| W1:198.14 | you see the vision of yourself and then you disappear forever into | God. |
| W1:198.15 | here will not forsake us now. For He would give to us the gift that | God has given us through Him today. Now is it time for your |
| W1:199.2 | never enter in a mind that has attached itself to Love. It rests in | God, and who can be afraid who lives in Innocence and only loves? |
| W1:199.7 | freedom, perfect joy, and hope that finds its full accomplishment in | God. |
| W1:199.8 | thanks for the increase of joy your practice brings even to it. And | God Himself extends His Love and happiness each time you say: |
| W1:199.9 | I am not a body. I am free. I hear the Voice that | God has given me, and it is only this my mind obeys. |
| W1:200.1 | Seek you no further. You will not find peace except the peace of | God. Accept this fact, and save yourself the agony of yet more bitter |
| W1:200.1 | further. There is nothing else for you to find except the peace of | God, unless you seek for misery and pain. |
| W1:200.7 | There is no peace except the peace of | God because He has one Son, who cannot make a world in opposition to |
| W1:200.7 | Yet can he learn to look on it another way and find the peace of | God. |
| W1:200.8 | gently toward the bridge where freedom lies within the peace of | God. |
| W1:200.9 | wander can there be delay and needless wasted time on thorny byways. | God alone is sure, and He will guide our footsteps. He will not |
| W1:200.9 | And that is all there is to what appears to be a world apart from | God where bodies have reality. |
| W1:200.11 | Today we seek no idols. Peace cannot be found in them. The peace of | God is ours, and only this will we accept and want. Peace be to us |
| W1:200.11 | single purpose and companionship. For peace is union if it be of | God. We seek no further. We are close to home and draw still nearer |
| W1:200.12 | There is no peace except the peace of | God, and I am glad and thankful it is so. |
| W1:R6.1 | and to the world from every form of bondage and invite the memory of | God to come again. |
| W1:R6.4 | I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:R6.6 | a quickened pace along a shorter path to the serenity and peace of | God. We merely close our eyes and then forget all that we thought we |
| W1:200.1 | but is my brother. I am blessed with oneness with the universe and | God, my Father, One Creator of the whole that is my Self, forever one |
| W1:200.1 | forever one with me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:202.1 | would I choose to stay an instant more where I do not belong, when | God Himself has given me His Voice to call me home? I am not a body. |
| W1:202.1 | Voice to call me home? I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:203.1 | [183] I call upon God's Name and on my own. The Name of | God is my deliverance from every thought of evil and of sin, because |
| W1:203.1 | my own as well as His. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:204.1 | [184] The Name of | God is my inheritance. God's Name reminds me that I am His Son, not |
| W1:204.1 | unbound by laws which rule the world of sick illusions, free in | God, forever and forever one with Him. I am not a body. I am free. |
| W1:204.1 | forever one with Him. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:205.1 | [185] I want the peace of | God. The peace of God is everything I want. The peace of God is my |
| W1:205.1 | [185] I want the peace of God. The peace of | God is everything I want. The peace of God is my one goal; the aim of |
| W1:205.1 | peace of God. The peace of God is everything I want. The peace of | God is my one goal; the aim of all my living here, the end I seek, my |
| W1:205.1 | I am not at home. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:206.1 | of the world depends on me. I am entrusted with the gifts of | God because I am His Son. And I would give His gifts where He |
| W1:206.1 | intended them to be. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:207.1 | boundless Love for me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:208.1 | [188] The peace of | God is shining in me now. I will be still and let the earth be still |
| W1:208.1 | along with me. And in that stillness, we will find the peace of | God. It is within my heart, which witnesses to God Himself. I am not |
| W1:208.1 | find the peace of God. It is within my heart, which witnesses to | God Himself. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W1:208.1 | to God Himself. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:209.1 | [189] I feel the Love of | God within me now. The Love of God is what created me. The Love of |
| W1:209.1 | [189] I feel the Love of God within me now. The Love of | God is what created me. The Love of God is everything I am. The Love |
| W1:209.1 | God within me now. The Love of God is what created me. The Love of | God is everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The |
| W1:209.1 | is what created me. The Love of God is everything I am. The Love of | God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love of God within me sets me free. |
| W1:209.1 | I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love of | God within me sets me free. I am not a body. I am free. For I am |
| W1:209.1 | me sets me free. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:210.1 | [190] I choose the joy of | God instead of pain. Pain is my own idea. It is not a thought of God, |
| W1:210.1 | of God instead of pain. Pain is my own idea. It is not a thought of | God, but one I thought apart from Him and from His Will. His Will is |
| W1:210.1 | of what I made. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:211.1 | [191] I am the holy Son of | God Himself. In silence and in true humility, I seek God's glory to |
| W1:211.1 | He created as my Self. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:212.1 | [192] I have a function | God would have me fill. I seek the function that would set me free |
| W1:212.1 | me free from all the vain illusions of the world. Only the function | God has given me can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this |
| W1:212.1 | will I accept as mine. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:213.1 | [193] All things are lessons | God would have me learn. A lesson is a miracle which God offers to me |
| W1:213.1 | are lessons God would have me learn. A lesson is a miracle which | God offers to me in place of thoughts I made that hurt me. What I |
| W1:213.1 | and forget my own. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:214.1 | [194] I place the future in the hands of | God. The past is gone; the future is not yet. Now am I freed from |
| W1:214.1 | is gone; the future is not yet. Now am I freed from both. For what | God gives can only be for good. And I accept but what He gives as |
| W1:214.1 | as what belongs to me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:215.1 | me the way to go. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:216.1 | will be given me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:217.1 | my thanks are due? I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:218.1 | glory and be glad. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:219.1 | forever as His Son. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W1:220.1 | [200] There is no peace except the peace of | God. Let me not wander from the way of peace, for I am lost on other |
| W1:220.1 | me follow Him Who leads me home, and peace is certain as the Love of | God. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:220.1 | as the Love of God. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as | God created me. |
| W2:I.2 | be merely a beginning. For we wait in quiet expectation for our | God and Father. He has promised He will take the final step Himself. |
| W2:I.2 | Nor will we forget our hourly remembrance in between, calling to | God when we have need of Him as we are tempted to forget our goal. |
| W2:I.3 | remaining holy instants which conclude the year that we have given | God. We say some simple words of welcome and expect our Father to |
| W2:I.8 | holy year which we have spent together in the search for truth and | God, Who is its one Creator. We have found the way He chose for us |
| W2:I.9 | We had a wish that | God would fail to have the Son whom He created for Himself. We wanted |
| W2:I.9 | would fail to have the Son whom He created for Himself. We wanted | God to change Himself and be what we would make of Him. And we |
| W2:I.9 | is all undone, and we no longer think illusions true. The memory of | God is shimmering across the wide horizons of our minds. A moment |
| W2:I.10 | final section we will come to understand that we need only call to | God and all temptations disappear. Instead of words, we need but feel |
| W2:WF.1 | lets it go. What then is free to take its place is now the Will of | God. |
| W2:WF.5 | He has forgiven you already, for such is His function given Him by | God. Now must you share His function and forgive whom He has saved, |
| W2:WF.5 | saved, whose sinlessness He sees, and whom He honors as the Son of | God. |
| W2:221.2 | Now do we wait in quiet. | God is here because we wait together. I am sure that He will speak to |
| W2:222.1 | God is with me. He is my Source of life, the life within, the air I | |
| W2:223.1 | I was mistaken when I thought I lived apart from | God, a separate entity which moved in isolation, unattached, and |
| W2:227.2 | our glad return to Heaven, which we never really left. The Son of | God this day lays down his dreams. The Son of God this day comes home |
| W2:227.2 | left. The Son of God this day lays down his dreams. The Son of | God this day comes home again, released from sin and clad in |
| W2:230.1 | do I remain. It is not given me to change my Self. How merciful is | God my Father, that when He created me He gave me peace forever. Now |
| W2:WS.1 | Salvation is a promise made by | God that you would find your way to Him at last. It cannot but be |
| W2:WS.3 | And what they hid is now revealed—an altar to the holy Name of | God whereon His Word is written, with the gifts of your forgiveness |
| W2:WS.3 | with the gifts of your forgiveness laid before it and the memory of | God not far behind. |
| W2:WS.4 | there is no sorrow, for it holds a hint of all the glory given us by | God. The grass is pushing through the soil, the trees are budding |
| W2:234.1 | unified as one. Nothing has ever happened to disturb the peace of | God the Father and the Son. This we accept as wholly true today. |
| W2:235.1 | forever in His arms. I am the Son He loves. And I am saved because | God in His mercy wills it so. |
| W2:236.1 | which I alone can rule. And thus I set it free to do the Will of | God. |
| W2:237.1 | the day. I bring the world the tidings of salvation that I hear as | God my Father speaks to me. And I behold the world that Christ would |
| W2:237.2 | is my eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice of | God today. Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your Son and my |
| W2:240.1 | of yourself. Let us not be deceived today. We are the Son of | God. There is no fear in us, for we are each a part of Love Itself. |
| W2:WIW.2 | The world was made as an attack on | God. It symbolizes fear. And what is fear except love's absence? Thus |
| W2:WIW.2 | except love's absence? Thus the world was meant to be a place where | God could enter not and where His Son could be apart from Him. Here |
| W2:WIW.4 | away from truth, it can be redirected. Sounds become the call of | God. And all perception can be given a new purpose by the One Whom |
| W2:WIW.4 | God. And all perception can be given a new purpose by the One Whom | God appointed Savior to the world. Follow His light and see the world |
| W2:242.1 | And He is glad to make no choices for me but the ones that lead to | God. This day I give to Him, for I would not delay my coming home, |
| W2:243.1 | make. Thus do I free myself and what I look upon, to be in peace as | God created us. |
| W2:244.2 | in truth. No storms can come into the hallowed haven of our home. In | God are we secure. For what can come to threaten God Himself or make |
| W2:244.2 | of our home. In God are we secure. For what can come to threaten | God Himself or make afraid what will forever be a part of Him? |
| W2:245.2 | message that we have received. And thus we come to hear the Voice of | God, Who speaks to us as we relate His Word, Whose Love we recognize |
| W2:246.1 | Let me not think that I can find the way to | God if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not try to hurt God's Son |
| W2:248.1 | I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the holy Son of | God. Now am I ready to accept him back as God created him, and as he |
| W2:248.1 | lies about the holy Son of God. Now am I ready to accept him back as | God created him, and as he is. |
| W2:249.1 | into the Light that it reflects. And so the journey which the Son of | God began has ended in the Light from Which he came. |
| W2:250.1 | Let me behold the Son of | God today and witness to his glory. Let me not try to obscure the |
| W2:WIS.3 | is evil; timelessness must have an end; eternal life must die. And | God Himself has lost the Son He loves, with but corruption to |
| W2:WIS.4 | And yet what sin perceives is but a childish game. The Son of | God may play he has become a body, prey to evil and to guilt, with |
| W2:WIS.5 | How long, oh Son of | God, will you maintain the game of sin? Shall we not put away these |
| W2:WIS.5 | Would you still hold return to Heaven back? How long, oh holy Son of | God, how long? |
| W2:252.1 | burning impulses which move the world but from the boundless Love of | God Himself. How far beyond this world my Self must be, and yet how |
| W2:252.1 | this world my Self must be, and yet how near to me and close to | God! |
| W2:254.2 | They are silent now. And in the stillness, hallowed by His Love, | God speaks to us and tells us of our will, as we have chosen to |
| W2:255.1 | not seem to me that I can choose to have but peace today. And yet my | God assures me that His Son is like Himself. Let me this day have |
| W2:256.1 | The way to | God is through forgiveness here. There is no other way. If sin had |
| W2:256.1 | asleep in heavy clouds of doubt about the holiness of him whom | God created sinless? Here we can but dream. But we can dream we have |
| W2:256.1 | all sin remains impossible, and it is this we choose to dream today. | God is our goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds return |
| W2:257.1 | unify our thoughts and actions meaningfully and achieve only what | God would have us do today. |
| W2:258.1 | overlook all little, senseless aims and to remember that our goal is | God. His memory is hidden in our minds, obscured but by our pointless |
| W2:258.1 | while the toys and trinkets of the world are sought instead? | God is our only goal, our only Love. We have no aim but to remember |
| W2:259.1 | Sin is the only thought that makes the goal of | God seem unobtainable. What else could blind us to the obvious and |
| W2:WIB.1 | The body is a fence the Son of | God imagines he has built to separate parts of his Self from other |
| W2:WIB.4 | goal of Heaven been exchanged for the pursuit of hell. The Son of | God extends his hand to reach his brother and to help him walk along |
| W2:261.1 | danger, nor attempt to find my peace in murderous attack. I live in | God. In Him I find my refuge and my strength. In Him is my Identity. |
| W2:262.1 | our Source, eternally united in Your Love, eternally the holy Son of | God. |
| W2:263.2 | walk together to our Father's house as brothers and the holy Sons of | God. |
| W2:266.2 | acknowledging our Self in each of us, united in the holy Love of | God. How many saviors God has given us! How can we lose the way to |
| W2:266.2 | Self in each of us, united in the holy Love of God. How many saviors | God has given us! How can we lose the way to Him, when He has filled |
| W2:267.1 | Surrounding me is all the life that | God created in His Love. It calls to me in every heartbeat and in |
| W2:267.1 | me peace; each breath infuses me with strength. I am a messenger of | God, directed by His Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held |
| W2:269.2 | Him Whose Self is ours. We are one because of Him Who is the Son of | God, of Him Who is our own Identity. |
| W2:270.2 | sight, we offer healing to the world through Him, the holy Son whom | God created whole, the holy Son whom God created one. |
| W2:270.2 | through Him, the holy Son whom God created whole, the holy Son whom | God created one. |
| W2:WIC.1 | Him. He is the Self we share, uniting us with one another and with | God as well. He is the Thought Which still abides within the Mind |
| W2:WIC.1 | in which He was created. He abides unchanged forever in the Mind of | God. |
| W2:WIC.2 | Christ is the link that keeps you one with | God and guarantees that separation is no more than an illusion of |
| W2:WIC.3 | Home of the Holy Spirit and at home in | God alone, does Christ remain at peace within the Heaven of your holy |
| W2:WIC.4 | into truth. He will exchange them for the final dream which | God appointed as the end of dreams. For when forgiveness rests upon |
| W2:WIC.4 | forgiveness rests upon the world and peace has come to every Son of | God, what could remain to keep things separate, for what remains to |
| W2:WIC.5 | or of time, or anything except the holy Self, the Christ Whom | God created as His Son. |
| W2:272.2 | in a dream, we turn aside and ask ourselves if we, the Sons of | God, could be content with dreams when Heaven can be chosen just as |
| W2:273.1 | but tell our minds with certainty, “The stillness of the peace of | God is mine,” and nothing can intrude upon the peace that God Himself |
| W2:273.1 | peace of God is mine,” and nothing can intrude upon the peace that | God Himself has given to His Son. |
| W2:275.1 | Let us today attend the Voice of | God, Which speaks an ancient lesson, no more true today than any |
| W2:275.1 | hear and learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For the Voice of | God tells us of things we cannot understand alone, nor learn apart. |
| W2:275.1 | all things are protected. And in this the healing of the Voice of | God is found. |
| W2:276.1 | What is the Word of | God? “My Son is pure and holy as Myself.” And thus did God become the |
| W2:276.1 | the Word of God? “My Son is pure and holy as Myself.” And thus did | God become the Father of the Son He loves, for thus was he created. |
| W2:277.2 | in any laws idolatry would make to hide the freedom of the Son of | God. He is not bound except by his beliefs. Yet what he is, is far |
| W2:277.2 | Father's Son. And he cannot be bound unless God's Truth can lie and | God can will that He deceive Himself. |
| W2:279.1 | Should I wait in chains which have been severed for release, when | God is offering me freedom now? |
| W2:280.1 | Whom | God created limitless is free. I can invent imprisonment for him, but |
| W2:280.1 | for him, but only in illusions, not in truth. No Thought of | God has left its Father's Mind. No Thought of God is limited at all. |
| W2:280.1 | truth. No Thought of God has left its Father's Mind. No Thought of | God is limited at all. No Thought of God but is forever pure. Can I |
| W2:280.1 | Father's Mind. No Thought of God is limited at all. No Thought of | God but is forever pure. Can I lay limits on the Son of God, whose |
| W2:280.1 | Thought of God but is forever pure. Can I lay limits on the Son of | God, whose Father willed that he be limitless and like Himself in |
| W2:WIHS.1 | and dreams, perception leads to knowledge through the grace that | God has given Him, to be His gift to everyone who turns to Him for |
| W2:WIHS.4 | From knowledge, where He has been placed by | God, the Holy Spirit calls to you to let forgiveness rest upon your |
| W2:WIHS.5 | beloved Son. Would you refuse to take the function of completing | God when all He wills is that you be complete? |
| W2:282.1 | world. This the decision not to be insane and to accept myself as | God Himself, my Father and my Source, created me. This the |
| W2:282.1 | in the joy of life. And this the choice to recognize the Self Whom | God created as the Son He loves and Who remains my one Reality. |
| W2:283.1 | Father, I made an image of myself, and it is this I call the Son of | God. Yet is creation as it always was, for Your creation is |
| W2:283.1 | loves. His holiness remains the light of Heaven and the Love of | God. Is not what is beloved of You secure? Is not the light of Heaven |
| W2:283.2 | Now are we one in shared Identity, with | God our Father as our only Source and everything created part of us. |
| W2:285.1 | Today I wake with joy, expecting but the happy things of | God to come to me. I ask but them to come and realize my invitation |
| W2:286.2 | it to a wholly certain goal. Today we will not doubt the end which | God Himself has promised us. We trust in Him and in our Self, Who |
| W2:287.1 | for happiness? What gift could I prefer before the peace of | God? What treasure would I seek and find and keep that can compare |
| W2:WIRW.5 | has served His purpose. Now He waits but that one instant more for | God to take His final step, and time has disappeared, taking |
| W2:WIRW.5 | be Itself. That instant is our goal, for it contains the memory of | God. And as we look upon a world forgiven, it is He Who calls to us |
| W2:291.1 | recognize it is a holiness in which we share; it is the holiness of | God Himself. |
| W2:294.1 | I am a Son of | God. And can I be another thing as well? Did God create the mortal |
| W2:294.1 | I am a Son of God. And can I be another thing as well? Did | God create the mortal and corruptible? What use has God's beloved Son |
| W2:296.2 | to persuade the world through us to seek and find the easy path to | God! |
| W2:298.1 | journeys, mad careers, and artificial values. I accept instead what | God establishes as mine, sure that in that alone I will be saved, |
| W2:298.2 | sanctuary and escape from everything that would obscure my love for | God, my Father, and His holy Son. |
| W2:299.1 | My holiness is far beyond my own ability to understand or know. Yet | God my Father, Who created it, acknowledges my holiness as His. Our |
| W2:WISC.1 | Christ's Second Coming, which is sure as | God, is merely the correction of mistakes and the return of sanity. |
| W2:WISC.3 | in one last summary that will extend beyond itself and reaches up to | God. The Second Coming is the time in which all minds are given to |
| W2:WISC.3 | be returned to Spirit in the name of true creation and the Will of | God. |
| W2:WISC.4 | equality is Christ restored as one Identity, in which all Sons of | God acknowledge that they all are one. And God the Father smiles upon |
| W2:WISC.4 | in which all Sons of God acknowledge that they all are one. And | God the Father smiles upon His Son, His one creation and His only joy. |
| W2:WISC.5 | God's Will and join together in its holy light. Behold, the Son of | God is one in us, and we can reach our Father's Love through him. |
| W2:306.1 | a world of mercy and of care; of loving kindness and the peace of | God. |
| W2:309.1 | Will is to deny my own. To look within is but to find my will as | God created it and as it is. I fear to look within because I think I |
| W2:309.1 | made it real. Yet it has no effects. Within me is the holiness of | God. Within me is the memory of Him. |
| W2:WILJ.1 | Christ's Second Coming gives the Son of | God the gift to hear the Voice for God proclaim that what is false is |
| W2:WILJ.1 | Second Coming gives the Son of God the gift to hear the Voice for | God proclaim that what is false is false and what is true has never |

| W2:WILJ.4 | away all tears, and gently waken from his dream of pain the Son whom | God acknowledges as His. Be not afraid of this. Salvation asks you |
| W2:315.1 | this gift and takes it as its own. And everyone who finds the way to | God becomes my savior, pointing out the way to me and giving me his |
| W2:315.2 | the many gifts that come to me today and every day from every Son of | God. My brothers are unlimited in all their gifts to me. Now may I |
| W2:316.1 | enter in where I am truly welcome and at home among the gifts that | God has given me. |
| W2:318.1 | saved because salvation's purpose is to find the sinlessness which | God has placed in me. I was created as the thing I seek. I am the |
| W2:319.1 | that what one gains totality must lose. And yet it is the Will of | God I learn that what one gains is given unto all. |
| W2:320.1 | The Son of | God is limitless. There are no limits on his strength, his peace, his |
| W2:WICR.2 | shares in creation and must therefore share in power to create. What | God has willed to be forever one will still be one when time is over |
| W2:WICR.3 | illusions, for creation is the truth. Creation is the holy Son of | God, for in creation is His Will complete in every aspect, making |
| W2:WICR.4 | We are creation—we the Sons of | God. We seem to be discrete and unaware of our eternal unity with |
| W2:WICR.4 | be done on earth, only to be restored to sanity, and to be but as | God created us. |
| W2:321.2 | all the world's salvation when we learn our freedom can be found in | God alone. |
| W2:325.1 | thoughts a gentle world comes forth, with mercy for the holy Son of | God, to offer him a kindly home where he can rest a while before he |
| W2:325.1 | his brothers walk ahead with him and find the way to Heaven and to | God. |
| W2:326.1 | Its Effect are indistinguishable. Let me know that I am an Effect of | God, and so I have the power to create like You. And as it is in |
| W2:326.1 | will disappear and separate thoughts unite in glory as the Son of | God. |
| W2:327.1 | asked to take salvation on the basis of an unsupported faith. For | God has promised He will hear my call and answer me Himself. Let me |
| W2:328.1 | things we perceive are upside-down until we listen to the Voice of | God. It seems that we will gain autonomy but by our striving to be |
| W2:329.2 | we recognize that we are one. Through it we find our way at last to | God. |
| W2:330.1 | images of pain? Why should we teach them they are powerless when | God holds out His power and His love and bids them take what is |
| W2:330.1 | to Spirit and extends its freedom and its joy, as is the Will of | God united with its own. The Self which God created cannot sin and |
| W2:330.1 | its joy, as is the Will of God united with its own. The Self which | God created cannot sin and therefore cannot suffer. Let us choose |
| W2:WIE.1 | and to end its life in death. It is the will that sees the Will of | God as enemy and takes a form in which It is denied. The ego is the |
| W2:WIE.1 | is weak and love is fearful, life is really death, and what opposes | God alone is true. |
| W2:WIE.2 | the Infinite. In its insanity it thinks it has become a victor over | God Himself, and in its terrible autonomy, it “sees” the Will of God |
| W2:WIE.2 | God Himself, and in its terrible autonomy, it “sees” the Will of | God has been destroyed. It dreams of punishment and trembles at the |
| W2:WIE.3 | The Son of | God is egoless. What can he know of madness and the death of God when |
| W2:WIE.3 | Son of God is egoless. What can he know of madness and the death of | God when he abides in Him? What can he know of sorrow and of |
| W2:WIE.4 | price for faith in it is so immense that crucifixion of the Son of | God is offered daily at its darkened shrine and blood must flow |
| W2:WIE.5 | Itself. And peace will be restored forever to the holy minds which | God created as His Son, His dwelling-place, His joy, His love, |
| W2:331.2 | holy sights forgiveness shows today that we may find the peace of | God. Amen. |
| W2:334.1 | such meager gifts again today. God's Voice is offering the peace of | God to all who hear and choose to follow Him. This is my choice |
| W2:334.1 | Him. This is my choice today. And so I go to find the treasures | God has given me. |
| W2:336.1 | only here is peace of mind restored, for this the dwelling-place of | God Himself. |
| W2:337.1 | this is mine? I must accept Atonement for myself and nothing more. | God has already done all things that need be done. And I must learn I |
| W2:338.1 | fear thought for a happy thought of love. He crucified himself. Yet | God has planned that His beloved Son will be redeemed. |
| W2:WIM.3 | the silent miracle of love. And each is laid before the Word of | God upon the universal altar to Creator and creation, in the light of |
| W2:341.2 | Let us not then attack our sinlessness. For it contains the Word of | God to us, and in its kind reflection we are saved. |
| W2:342.2 | you home with me. And as we go, the world goes with us on the way to | God. |
| W2:343.2 | The mercy and the peace of | God are free. Salvation has no cost. It is a gift that must be freely |
| W2:344.2 | How near we are to one another, as we go to | God. How near is He to us. How close the ending of the dream of sin |
| W2:344.2 | the ending of the dream of sin and the redemption of the Son of | God. |
| W2:346.2 | the evening comes today, we will remember nothing but the peace of | God. For we will learn today what peace is ours when we forget all |
| W2:347.2 | Listen today. Be very still and hear the gentle Voice for | God assuring you that He has judged you as the Son He loves. |
| W2:350.1 | we forgive becomes a part of us as we perceive ourselves. The Son of | God incorporates all things within himself as You created him. Your |
| W2:WAI.1 | and joy established without opposite. I am the holy home of | God Himself. I am the Heaven where His love resides. I am His holy |
| W2:WAI.2 | almost over now. Yet in the final days of this one year we gave to | God together, you and I, we found a single purpose that we shared. |
| W2:WAI.4 | from every thought of sin. Ours are the ears that hear the Voice of | God proclaim the world as sinless. Ours the minds which join together |
| W2:WAI.5 | We are the holy messengers of | God who speak for Him, and carrying His Word to everyone whom He has |
| W2:WAI.5 | came and which we seek to serve. We bring glad tidings to the Son of | God, who thought he suffered. Now is he redeemed. And as he sees the |
| W2:WAI.5 | open before him, he will enter in and disappear into the Heart of | God. |
| W2:351.1 | And if I see him sinful, I proclaim myself a sinner, not a Son of | God, alone and friendless in a fearful world. Yet this perception is |
| W2:358.1 | what I really am alone remember what I really want. You speak for | God, and so You speak for me. And what You give me comes from God |
| W2:358.1 | for God, and so You speak for me. And what You give me comes from | God Himself. Your Voice, my Father, then is mine as well, and all I |
| W2:359.1 | all things. But we have not made sinners of the holy Sons of | God. What You created sinless so abides forever and forever. Such are |
| W2:FL.2 | His is the only way to find the peace that | God has given us. It is His way that everyone must travel in the end, |
| W2:FL.2 | way that everyone must travel in the end, because it is this ending | God Himself appointed. In the dream of time, it seems to be far off. |
| W2:FL.3 | Unto us the aim is given to forgive the world. It is the goal that | God has given us. It is His ending to the dream we seek, and not our |
| W2:FL.3 | For all that we forgive we will not fail to recognize as part of | God Himself. And thus His memory is given back completely and |
| W2:FL.4 | is shared. For it is that remembrance which contains the memory of | God and points the way to Him and to the Heaven of His peace. And |
| W2:FL.5 | now. And we are saved from all the wrath we thought belonged to | God and found it was a dream. We are restored to sanity in which we |
| W2:361.1 | by my request. And He will hear and answer me because He speaks for | God, my Father, and His holy Son. |
| W2:E.2 | still, for it cannot be possible to change the course of those whom | God has called to Him. Therefore, obey your will and follow Him Whom |
| W2:E.2 | speak of what you really want and really need. His is the Voice for | God, and also yours. And thus He speaks of freedom and of truth. |
| W2:E.3 | there is no more need of them. Henceforth, hear but the Voice for | God and for your Self when you retire from the world, to seek Reality |
| W2:E.3 | for His sure direction and His certain Word. His is the Word that | God has given you. His is the Word you chose to be your own. |
| W2:E.5 | means as well. To this we say “Amen.” We will be told exactly what | God wills for us each time there is a choice to make. And He will |
| W2:E.5 | for us each time there is a choice to make. And He will speak for | God and for your Self, thus making sure that hell will claim you not |
| W2:E.5 | Joy attends our way. For we go homeward to an open door which | God has held unclosed to welcome us. |
| M:I.4 | learning situation which teaches nothing but despair and death, | God sends His teachers. And as they teach His lessons of joy and |
| M:I.5 | And what else is hell? This is a manual for the teachers of | God. They are not perfect or they would not be here. Yet it is their |
| M:1.1 | A teacher of | God is anyone who chooses to be one. His qualifications consist |
| M:1.1 | a single light, but that is enough. He has entered an agreement with | God even if he does not yet believe in Him. He has become a bringer |
| M:1.1 | He has become a bringer of salvation. He has become a teacher of | God. |
| M:1.3 | There is a course for every teacher of | God. The form of the course varies greatly. So do the particular |
| M:1.4 | was never a question of outcome, for what can change the Will of | God? But time, with its illusions of change and death, wears out the |
| M:1.4 | in it. Yet time has an ending, and it is this that the teachers of | God are appointed to bring about. For time is in their hands. Such |
| M:2.2 | was established and completed simultaneously, for the Will of | God is entirely apart from time. So is all reality, being of Him. The |
| M:2.5 | purposes. The relationship is holy because of that purpose, and | God has promised to send His Spirit into any holy relationship. In |
| M:2.5 | and one goal. And thus he who was the learner becomes a teacher of | God himself, for he has made the one decision that gave his teacher |
| M:3.1 | The teachers of | God have no set teaching level. Each teaching-learning situation |
| M:3.1 | a holy relationship in which both can look upon the Son of | God as sinless. There is no one from whom a teacher of God cannot |
| M:3.1 | the Son of God as sinless. There is no one from whom a teacher of | God cannot learn, so there is no one whom he cannot teach. However, |
| M:3.1 | plan includes very specific contacts to be made for each teacher of | God. There are no accidents in salvation. Those who are to meet will |
| M:3.3 | of one permits the illusion of the other. In time, the teacher of | God seems to begin to change his mind about the world with the single |
| M:3.4 | again, for it is the destiny of all relationships to become holy. | God is not mistaken in His Son. |
| M:3.5 | of the teachers who falter and may even seem to fail. No teacher of | God can fail to find the Help he needs. |
| M:4.1 | Nor at the beginning stages of their functioning as teachers of | God have they as yet acquired the deeper characteristics that will |
| M:4.1 | deeper characteristics that will establish them as what they are. | God gives special gifts to His teachers because they have a special |
| M:4.1 | situation is geared, become characteristic of all teachers of | God who have advanced in their own learning. In this respect they are |
| M:4.2 | All differences among the Sons of | God are temporary. Nevertheless, in time it can be said that the |
| M:4.2 | Nevertheless, in time it can be said that the advanced teachers of | God have the following characteristics: |
| M:4.3 | because cause and effect are never separated. The teachers of | God have trust in the world, because they have learned it is not |
| M:4.3 | keeps all things safe. It is through this Power that the teachers of | God look on a forgiven world. |
| M:4.4 | place his faith in the shabby offerings of the ego when the gifts of | God are laid before him? What is it that induces them to make the |
| M:4.5 | circumstances. These changes are always helpful. When the teacher of | God has learned that much, he goes on to the second stage. |
| M:4.6 | Next, the teacher of | God must go through a “period of sorting-out.” This is always |
| M:4.7 | The third stage through which the teachers of | God must go can be called a “period of relinquishment.” If this is |
| M:4.7 | the desirable, it will engender enormous conflict. Few teachers of | God escape this distress entirely. There is, however, no point in |
| M:4.7 | the period of overlap is apt to be one in which the teacher of | God feels called upon to sacrifice his own best interests on behalf |
| M:4.8 | of settling down.” This is a quiet time in which the teacher of | God rests a while in reasonable peace. Now he consolidates his |
| M:4.8 | learned. Its potential is literally staggering, and the teacher of | God is now at the point in his progress at which he sees in it his |
| M:4.8 | do.” How simple is the obvious! And how easy to do! The teacher of | God needs this period of respite. He has not yet come as far as he |
| M:4.9 | stage is indeed a “period of unsettling.” Now must the teacher of | God understand that he did not really know what was valuable and what |
| M:4.12 | The peace of mind which the advanced teachers of | God experience is largely due to their perfect honesty. It is only |
| M:4.12 | self-deception is dishonesty. There is no challenge to a teacher of | God. Challenge implies doubt, and the trust on which God's teachers |
| M:4.12 | unchanging and unchangeable beyond appearances, and for the Son of | God and his Creator. How could they not succeed? They choose in |
| M:4.13 | apart? Judgment destroys honesty and shatters trust. No teacher of | God can judge and hope to learn. |
| M:4.14 | of God's curriculum and its replacement by insanity. No teacher of | God but must learn—and fairly early in his training—that |
| M:4.17 | joy comes from their understanding Who created them. And does what | God created need defense? No one can become an advanced teacher of |
| M:4.17 | God created need defense? No one can become an advanced teacher of | God until he fully understands that defenses are but the foolish |
| M:4.17 | and more powerful its defenses seem to be. Yet when the teacher of | God finally agrees to look past them, he finds nothing was there. |
| M:4.17 | are laid down. It is safety. It is peace. It is joy. And it is | God. |
| M:4.18 | The term generosity has special meaning to the teacher of | God. It is not the usual meaning of the word; in fact, it is a |
| M:4.18 | means “giving away” in the sense of “giving up.” To the teachers of | God, it means “giving away” in order to keep. This has been |
| M:4.18 | of levels, the word means the exact opposite to the teachers of | God and to the world. |
| M:4.19 | The teacher of | God is generous out of self-interest. This does not refer, however, |
| M:4.19 | not refer, however, to the self the world speaks of. The teacher of | God does not want anything he cannot give away because he realizes it |
| M:4.19 | pain? But he does want to keep for himself all things that are of | God and therefore for His Son. These are the things that belong to |
| M:4.20 | and wait without anxiety. Patience is natural to the teacher of | God. All he sees is certain outcome, at a time perhaps unknown as |
| M:4.20 | Perhaps it was not understood at the time. Even so, the teacher of | God is willing to reconsider all his past decisions if they are |
| M:4.21 | Faithfulness is the teacher of God's trust in the word of | God to set all things right—not some but all. Generally, his |
| M:4.22 | attributes of God's teachers. It implies acceptance of the word of | God and His definition of His Son. It is to them that faithfulness in |
| M:4.23 | open-mindedness, perhaps the last of the attributes the teacher of | God acquires, is easily understood when its relation to forgiveness |
| M:4.23 | invites Him to come in. As condemnation judges the Son of | God as evil, so open-mindedness permits him to be judged by the Voice |
| M:4.23 | evil, so open-mindedness permits him to be judged by the Voice for | God on His behalf. As the projection of guilt upon him would send him |
| M:4.25 | appear in this context. They would be most inappropriate here. What | God has given is so far beyond our curriculum that learning but |
| M:4.25 | that is “true learning” in the world. It is given to the teachers of | God to bring the glad tidings of complete forgiveness to the world. |
| M:5.2 | conceived in madness, for placing God's Son on his Father's throne. | God is seen as outside, fierce and powerful, eager to keep all power |
| M:5.3 | represents the ultimate defiance in a direct form which the Son of | God is forced to recognize. It stands for all that he would hide from |
| M:5.3 | himself, his weakness is his strength. Now has he given himself what | God would give to him and thus entirely usurped the throne of his |
| M:5.7 | nor limit. The final outcome of this lesson is the remembrance of | God. What do guilt and sickness, pain, disaster, and all suffering |
| M:5.8 | must change his mind in order to be healed, what does the teacher of | God do? Can he change the patient's mind for him? Certainly not. For |
| M:5.8 | except to rejoice with them, for they have become teachers of | God with him. He has, however, a more specific function for those who |
| M:5.9 | choice which they had forgotten. The simple presence of a teacher of | God is a reminder. His thoughts ask for the right to question what |
| M:5.9 | benediction, not to heal the sick but to remind them of the remedy | God has already given them. It is not their hands that heal. It is |
| M:5.9 | their hands that heal. It is not their voice that speaks the Word of | God. They merely give what has been given them. Very gently they call |
| M:5.9 | call to their brothers to turn away from death. Behold, you Son of | God, what life can offer you. Would you choose sickness in place of |
| M:5.10 | Not once do the advanced teachers of | God consider the forms of sickness in which their brother believes. |
| M:5.10 | And they remind him that he has not made himself and must remain as | God created him. They recognize illusions can have no effect. The |
| M:6.1 | Truth demonstrates illusions have no value. The teacher of | God has seen the correction of his errors in the mind of the patient, |
| M:6.2 | given, it will be received. And what is time before the gifts of | God? We have referred many times in the text to the storehouse of |
| M:6.2 | gifts. Not one is lost, for they can but increase. No teacher of | God should feel disappointed if he has offered healing and it does |
| M:6.4 | missing, it would not be full. Yet is its fullness guaranteed by | God. What concern, then, can a teacher of God have about what becomes |
| M:6.4 | its fullness guaranteed by God. What concern, then, can a teacher of | God have about what becomes of his gifts? Given by God to God, who in |
| M:6.4 | can a teacher of God have about what becomes of his gifts? Given by | God to God, who in this holy exchange can receive less than |
| M:6.4 | teacher of God have about what becomes of his gifts? Given by God to | God, who in this holy exchange can receive less than everything? |
| M:7.1 | have already said it is, what is there to repeat? For a teacher of | God to remain concerned about the result of healing is to limit the |
| M:7.1 | result of healing is to limit the healing. It is now the teacher of | God himself whose mind needs to be healed. And it is this he must |
| M:7.2 | Whenever a teacher of | God has tried to be a channel for healing, he has succeeded. Should |
| M:7.2 | the Holy Spirit so accepted it and so used it. Now the teacher of | God has only one course to follow. He must use his reason to tell |
| M:7.3 | It is in this that the teacher of | God must trust. This is what is really meant by the statement that |
| M:7.3 | worker is to accept the Atonement for himself. The teacher of | God is a miracle worker because he gives the gifts he has received. |
| M:7.3 | received it. Thus is his doubt corrected. He thought the gifts of | God could be withdrawn. That was a mistake, but hardly one to stay |
| M:7.3 | was a mistake, but hardly one to stay with. And so the teacher of | God can only recognize it for what it is and let it be corrected for |
| M:9.2 | As the teacher of | God advances in his training, he learns one lesson with increasing |
| M:9.2 | guide for action. This becomes easier and easier as the teacher of | God learns to give up his own judgment. The giving up of judgment, |
| M:10.2 | anything. No more does “bad.” It is necessary for the teacher of | God to realize not that he should not judge, but that he cannot. In |
| M:10.5 | it. And it was all illusion. Nothing more. Now can the teacher of | God rise up unburdened and walk lightly on. Yet it is not only this |
| M:10.6 | But it is difficult indeed to try to keep it. The teacher of | God lays it down happily the instant he recognizes its cost. All of |
| M:10.6 | the effects of his mistaken choice, have fallen from him. Teacher of | God, this step will bring you peace. Can it be difficult to want but |
| M:11.1 | must ask. Certainly peace seems to be impossible. Yet the Word of | God promises other things that seem impossible, as well as this. His |
| M:11.1 | rebirth is man's inheritance. The world you see cannot be the world | God loves, and yet His Word assures us that He loves the world. God's |
| M:11.2 | This time, ask yourself whether your judgment or the Word of | God is more likely to be true. For they say different things about |
| M:11.2 | things so opposite that it is pointless to try to reconcile them. | God offers the world salvation; your judgment would condemn it. God |
| M:11.2 | God offers the world salvation; your judgment would condemn it. | God says there is no death; your judgment sees but death as the |
| M:11.3 | and devoid of sense, yet out of which no way seems possible— | God has sent His Judgment to answer yours. Gently His Judgment |
| M:11.3 | it is not possible and can never be possible. But in the Judgment of | God, what is reflected here is only peace. |
| M:11.4 | on it in joyous answer. Peace now belongs here, because a thought of | God has entered. What else but a thought of God turns hell to Heaven |
| M:11.4 | because a thought of God has entered. What else but a thought of | God turns hell to Heaven merely by being what it is? The earth bows |
| M:12.1 | One, sanctified and redeemed, becomes the Self Who is the Son of | God. He who was always wholly spirit now no longer sees Himself as a |
| M:12.1 | Thoughts to still deluded minds. He is forever One, because He is as | God created Him. He has accepted Christ, and He is saved. |
| M:12.2 | Thus does the son of man become the Son of | God. It is not really a change; it is a change of mind. Nothing |
| M:12.2 | alters, but everything internal now reflects only the Love of | God. God can no longer be feared, for the mind sees no cause for |
| M:12.2 | alters, but everything internal now reflects only the Love of God. | God can no longer be feared, for the mind sees no cause for |
| M:12.2 | need. Yet being joined in one purpose, and one they share with | God, how could they be separate from each other? What does it matter |
| M:12.2 | in many forms? Their minds are one; their joining is complete. And | God works through them now as One, for that is what they are. |
| M:12.4 | this understanding will come the recognition in this new teacher of | God of what the body's purpose really is; the only use there really |
| M:12.4 | unity come in, and what is one is recognized as one. The teachers of | God appear to share the illusion of separation, but because of what |
| M:12.5 | and being weak, it suffers and it dies. Use it to bring the Word of | God to those who have it not, and the body becomes holy. Because it |
| M:12.5 | which are responsible for the body's condition. Yet the teacher of | God does not make this decision alone. To do that would be to give |
| M:13.6 | always means the giving up of what you want. And what, oh teacher of | God, is it that you want? You have been called by God, and you have |
| M:13.6 | oh teacher of God, is it that you want? You have been called by | God, and you have answered. Would you now sacrifice that Call? Few |
| M:13.7 | up Heaven partially. You cannot be a little bit in hell. The Word of | God has no exceptions. It is this that makes it holy and beyond the |
| M:13.7 | it holy and beyond the world. It is its holiness that points to | God. It is its holiness that makes you safe. It is denied if you |
| M:13.7 | you attack any brother for anything. For it is here the split with | God occurs. A split that is impossible. A split that cannot happen. |
| M:13.8 | Teacher of | God, do not forget the meaning of sacrifice, and remember what each |
| M:13.8 | what each decision you make must mean in terms of cost. Decide for | God, and everything is given you at no cost at all. Decide against |
| M:13.8 | The world contains it not, but learn this course and it is yours. | God holds out His Word to you, for He has need of teachers. What |
| M:14.3 | The illusion of orders of difficulty is an obstacle the teacher of | God must learn to pass by and leave behind. One sin perfectly |
| M:14.3 | by and leave behind. One sin perfectly forgiven by one teacher of | God can make salvation complete. Can you understand this? No; it is |
| M:14.4 | beyond its tiny reach. What, then, is the function of the teacher of | God in this concluding lesson? He need merely learn how to approach |
| M:14.5 | is reflected. And now sit down in true humility and realize that all | God would have you do, you can do. Do not be arrogant and say you |
| M:15.1 | across the world that everyone may hear this judgment of the Son of | God: |
| M:15.2 | are you, eternal, free, and whole, at peace forever in the Heart of | God. Where is the world and where is sorrow now? |
| M:15.3 | Is this your judgment on yourself, teacher of | God? Do you believe that this is wholly true? No, not yet, not yet. |
| M:15.3 | this Final Judgment. What is your judgment on the world, teacher of | God? Have you yet learned to stand aside and hear the Voice of |
| M:15.4 | judged, and judged in fairness and in honesty. There is no deceit in | God. His promises are sure. Only remember that. His promises have |
| M:16.1 | To the advanced teacher of | God, this question is meaningless. There is no program, for the |
| M:16.1 | and one which can be met that very day. For the advanced teacher of | God, then, this question is superfluous. It has been asked and |
| M:16.2 | on their own part. What must they do to learn to give the day to | God? There are some general rules which do apply, although each one |
| M:16.3 | How much time should be so spent? This must depend on the teacher of | God himself. He cannot claim that title until he has gone through the |
| M:16.4 | This course is always practical. It may be that the teacher of | God is not in a situation which fosters quiet thought as he awakes. |
| M:16.4 | this is so, let him but remember that he chooses to spend time with | God as soon as possible, and let him do so. Duration is not the major |
| M:16.4 | hour with closed eyes and accomplish nothing. One can as easily give | God only an instant, and in that instant join with Him completely. |
| M:16.5 | however, just before going to sleep is a desirable time to devote to | God. It sets your mind into a pattern of rest and orients you away |
| M:16.5 | than a moment will do—in which you close your eyes and think of | God. |
| M:16.7 | How simply and how easily does the day slip by for the teacher of | God who has accepted His protection! All that he did before in the |
| M:16.7 | at different times and different places, because they are all one to | God. This is his safety. And he has no need for more than this. |
| M:16.8 | Yet there will be temptations along the way the teacher of | God has yet to travel, and he has need of reminding himself |
| M:16.9 | When all magic is recognized as merely nothing, the teacher of | God has reached the most advanced state. All intermediate lessons |
| M:16.10 | There is no substitute for the Will of | God. In simple statement, it is to this fact that the teacher of God |
| M:16.10 | of God. In simple statement, it is to this fact that the teacher of | God devotes his day. Each substitute he may accept as real can but |
| M:17.1 | to deal with magic thus becomes a major lesson for the teacher of | God to master. His first responsibility in this is not to attack it. |
| M:17.2 | for himself. And in this gift is his judgment upon the holy Son of | God. |
| M:17.5 | magic thought, by its mere presence, acknowledges a separation from | God. It states in the clearest form possible that the mind which |
| M:17.5 | it believes it has a separate will that can oppose the Will of | God and succeed. That this can hardly be a fact is obvious. Yet that |
| M:17.5 | so. And herein lies the birthplace of guilt. Who usurps the place of | God and takes it for himself now has a deadly “enemy.” And he must |
| M:17.7 | says clearly to your frightened mind, “You have usurped the place of | God. Think not He has forgotten.” Here we have the fear of God most |
| M:17.7 | place of God. Think not He has forgotten.” Here we have the fear of | God most starkly represented. For in that thought has guilt already |
| M:17.7 | in that thought has guilt already raised madness to the throne of | God Himself. And now there is no hope. Except to kill. Here is |
| M:17.8 | Into this hopeless situation | God sends His teachers. They bring the light of hope from God |
| M:17.8 | situation God sends His teachers. They bring the light of hope from | God Himself. There is a way in which escape is possible. It can be |
| M:17.9 | Can nothing give rise to anger? Hardly so. Remember then, teacher of | God, that anger recognizes a reality that is not there, yet is the |
| M:17.9 | you now. There is no death. This sword does not exist. The fear of | God is causeless. But His love is Cause of everything beyond all fear |
| M:18.1 | only this is true correction—cannot be made until the teacher of | God has ceased to confuse interpretation with fact or illusion with |
| M:18.2 | them, the Holy Spirit can now speak of the reality of the Son of | God. Now He can remind the world of sinlessness, the one unchanged, |
| M:18.2 | sinlessness, the one unchanged, unchangeable condition of all that | God created. Now He can speak the Word of God to listening ears and |
| M:18.2 | condition of all that God created. Now He can speak the Word of | God to listening ears and bring Christ's vision to the eyes that see. |
| M:18.4 | a sin, nor has reality been taken from its throne by your mistakes. | God reigns forever, and His laws alone prevail upon you and upon the |
| M:18.5 | In order to heal, it thus becomes essential for the teacher of | God to let all his own mistakes be corrected. If he senses even the |
| M:18.5 | undoing of errors. When this has been accomplished, the teacher of | God becomes a miracle worker by definition. His sins have been |
| M:19.4 | entirely on love—you have projected your injustice, attributing to | God the lens of warped perception through which you look. Now it |
| M:19.5 | is now restored. What had been lost has now been found. The peace of | God descends on all the world and we can see. And we can see! |
| M:20.2 | First, how can the peace of | God be recognized? God's peace is recognized at first by just one |
| M:20.3 | forgiveness is the necessary condition for finding the peace of | God. More than this, given forgiveness there must be peace. For what |
| M:20.4 | How is the peace of | God retained once it is found? Returning anger, in whatever form, |
| M:20.5 | not life in which the problem lies. Life has no opposite, for it is | God. Life and death seem to be opposites, because you have decided |
| M:20.5 | Forgive the world, and you will understand that everything which | God created cannot have an end, and nothing He did not create is |
| M:20.6 | What is the peace of | God? No more than this—the simple understanding that His Will is |
| M:20.6 | is no conflict, because His Will is yours. Now is the mighty Will of | God Himself His gift to you. He does not seek to keep it for Himself. |
| M:20.6 | seek to keep your tiny, frail imaginings apart from Him? The Will of | God is one and all there is. This is your heritage. The universe |
| M:21.1 | prayer are contradictory; sometimes they agree. It does not matter. | God does not understand words, for they were made by separated minds |
| M:21.3 | him, as he requests. Herein lie hell and Heaven. The sleeping Son of | God has but this power left to him. It is enough. His words do not |
| M:21.3 | left to him. It is enough. His words do not matter. Only the Word of | God has any meaning, because it symbolizes that which has no human |
| M:21.4 | Is the teacher of | God then to avoid the use of words in his teaching? No, indeed. There |
| M:21.4 | words, being as yet unable to hear in silence. The teacher of | God must, however, learn to use words in a new way. Gradually, he |
| M:21.4 | lesson “I will step back and let Him lead the way.” The teacher of | God accepts the words which are offered him and gives as he receives. |
| M:22.1 | Accept Atonement, and you are healed. Atonement is the Word of | God. Accept His Word, and what remains to make sickness possible? |
| M:22.1 | miracle has been accomplished. To forgive is to heal. The teacher of | God has taken accepting the Atonement for himself as his only |
| M:22.2 | The progress of the teacher of | God may be slow or rapid, depending on whether he recognizes the |
| M:22.2 | all situations. This, however, is comparatively rare. The teacher of | God may have accepted the function God has given him long before he |
| M:22.2 | rare. The teacher of God may have accepted the function | God has given him long before he has learned all that his acceptance |
| M:22.2 | What more was asked of him? And having done what was required, would | God withhold the rest? |
| M:22.3 | That forgiveness is healing needs to be understood if the teacher of | God is to make progress. The idea that a body can be sick is a |
| M:22.3 | can order a mind to do as it sees fit would merely take the place of | God and prove salvation is impossible. What then is left to heal? The |
| M:22.4 | of all others as well. Nor is it at this level that the teacher of | God calls forth the miracle of healing. He overlooks the mind and |
| M:22.4 | recognition has no special reference. It is true of all things that | God created. In it are all illusions healed. |
| M:22.5 | When a teacher of | God fails to heal, it is because he has forgotten Who he is. |
| M:22.5 | and distorted perception does not heal. Step back now, teacher of | God. You have been wrong. Lead not the way, for you have lost it. |
| M:22.6 | of all forms of sickness. Not to believe this is to be unfair to | God and thus unfaithful to Him. A sick person perceives himself as |
| M:22.6 | unfaithful to Him. A sick person perceives himself as separate from | God. Would you see him as separate from you? It is your task to heal |
| M:22.7 | Who can limit the power of | God Himself? Who then can say who can be healed of what and what must |
| M:22.7 | he receive Atonement, for he withdraws his judgment from the Son of | God, accepting him as God created him. No longer does he stand apart |
| M:22.7 | for he withdraws his judgment from the Son of God, accepting him as | God created him. No longer does he stand apart from God, determining |
| M:22.7 | accepting him as God created him. No longer does he stand apart from | God, determining where healing should be given and where it should be |
| M:22.7 | should be given and where it should be withheld. Now can he say with | God, “This is my beloved Son, created perfect and forever so.” |
| M:23.2 | to others, but never to this one. He has become the risen Son of | God. He has overcome death, because he has accepted life. He has |
| M:23.2 | death, because he has accepted life. He has recognized himself as | God created him, and in so doing he has recognized all living things |
| M:23.2 | him. There is now no limit on his power, because it is the Power of | God. So has his name become the name of God, for he no longer sees |
| M:23.2 | because it is the Power of God. So has his name become the name of | God, for he no longer sees himself as separate from Him. |
| M:23.3 | mean to you? It means that in remembering Jesus, you are remembering | God. The whole relationship of the Son to the Father lies in him. His |
| M:23.3 | honestly whether it is likely that he will fail to keep them. Can | God fail His Son? And can one who is one with God be unlike Him? Who |
| M:23.3 | fail to keep them. Can God fail His Son? And can one who is one with | God be unlike Him? Who transcends the body has transcended |
| M:23.4 | the gods you pray to. It becomes the shining symbol for the Word of | God, so close to what it stands for that the little space between the |
| M:23.4 | mind. Remembering His name is to give thanks for all the gifts that | God has given you. And gratitude to God becomes the way in which He |
| M:23.4 | thanks for all the gifts that God has given you. And gratitude to | God becomes the way in which He is remembered, for love cannot be far |
| M:23.4 | for love cannot be far behind a grateful heart and thankful mind. | God enters easily, for these are the true conditions for your coming |
| M:23.6 | laid on us. No one who has become a true and dedicated teacher of | God forgets his brothers. Yet what he can offer them is limited by |
| M:23.7 | tongues and appeal to different symbols? Certainly there are. Would | God leave anyone without a very present help in time of trouble? A |
| M:24.3 | be helpful to take any definite stand on reincarnation. A teacher of | God should be as helpful to those who believe in it as to those who |
| M:24.4 | then they are likely to be merely controversial. The teacher of | God is therefore wise to step away from all such questions, for he |
| M:24.5 | Does this mean that the teacher of | God should not believe in reincarnation himself or discuss it with |
| M:25.3 | past, unusual attunement with the “unseen,” or special favors from | God. God gives no special favors, and no one has any powers that are |
| M:25.3 | unusual attunement with the “unseen,” or special favors from God. | God gives no special favors, and no one has any powers that are not |
| M:26.1 | God indeed can be reached directly, for there is no distance between | |
| M:26.1 | them. Alone they are nothing. But in their joining is the Power of | God. |
| M:26.2 | There are those who have reached | God directly, retaining no trace of worldly limits and remembering |
| M:26.2 | And meanwhile they give all their gifts to the teachers of | God who look to them for help, asking all things in their name and in |
| M:26.3 | Sometimes a teacher of | God may have a brief experience of direct union with God. In this |
| M:26.3 | a teacher of God may have a brief experience of direct union with | God. In this world, it is almost impossible that this endure. It can, |
| M:26.3 | happen, so be it as well. All worldly states must be illusory. If | God were reached directly in sustained awareness, the body would not |
| M:26.4 | not, then, be too concerned with goals for which you are not ready. | God takes you where you are and welcomes you. What more could you |
| M:27.1 | a certain way upon a certain path—all this is taken as the Will of | God. And no one asks if a benign Creator could will this. |
| M:27.2 | In this perception of the universe as | God created it, it would not be possible to think of Him as loving. |
| M:27.2 | today. Or if he waits, yet is the ending certain. Who loves such a | god knows not of love, because he has denied that life is real. Death |
| M:27.3 | Death is the symbol of the fear of | God. His love is blotted out in the idea, which holds it from |
| M:27.3 | The grimness of the symbol is enough to show it cannot co-exist with | God. It holds an image of the Son of God in which he is “laid to |
| M:27.3 | to show it cannot co-exist with God. It holds an image of the Son of | God in which he is “laid to rest” in devastation's arms, where worms |
| M:27.3 | things live because of death. Devouring is nature's “law of life.” | God is insane, and fear alone is real. |
| M:27.4 | that may go on apart from what will die does not proclaim a loving | God nor re-establish any grounds for trust. If death is real for |
| M:27.4 | is denied. No compromise in this is possible. There is either a | god of fear or One of Love. The world attempts a thousand compromises |
| M:27.4 | acceptable to God's teachers because not one could be acceptable to | God. He did not make death, because He did not make fear. Both are |
| M:27.5 | is firmly rooted in the belief that God's Son is a body. And if | God created bodies, death would indeed be real. But God would not be |
| M:27.5 | a body. And if God created bodies, death would indeed be real. But | God would not be loving. There is no point at which the contrast |
| M:27.5 | illusions becomes more sharply evident. Death is indeed the death of | God if He is Love. And now His own creation must stand in fear of |
| M:27.6 | What can be born of death and still have life? But what is born of | God and still can die? The inconsistencies, the compromises, and the |
| M:27.6 | to think love real are mindless magic, ineffectual and meaningless. | God is, and in Him all created things must be eternal. Do you not see |
| M:27.7 | Teacher of | God, your one assignment could be stated thus: accept no compromise |
| M:27.7 | the end of death? Nothing but this: the realization that the Son of | God is guiltless now and forever. Nothing but this. But do not let |
| M:28.1 | the Holy Spirit's final dream. It is the recognition of the gifts of | God. It is the dream in which the body functions perfectly, having no |
| M:28.1 | it is consummated and surpassed with this. It is the invitation to | God to take His final step. It is the relinquishment of all other |
| M:28.2 | but gladly welcomed. Idols have disappeared, and the remembrance of | God shines unimpeded across the world. Christ's face is seen in every |
| M:28.3 | reversal is accomplished. Nothing is left to contradict the Word of | God. There is no opposition to the truth. And now the truth can come |
| M:28.4 | of everlasting things is now at hand. There is no death. The Son of | God is free. And in his freedom is the end of fear. No hidden places |
| M:28.5 | set us free indeed, and we accept His holiness as ours, as it is. As | God created us, so will we be forever and forever, and we wish for |
| M:28.6 | in His Final Judgment is restored the truth about the holy Son of | God. He is redeemed, for he has heard God's Word and understood its |
| M:28.6 | with him, by his side as he prepares with them to meet his | God. |
| M:29.2 | should attempt to answer these questions alone. Surely no teacher of | God has come this far without realizing that. The curriculum is |
| M:29.4 | is to gain all power. And yet it is but a seeming paradox. As | God created you, you have all power. The image you made of yourself |
| M:29.5 | not have is deceiving himself. Yet to accept the power given him by | God is but to acknowledge his Creator and accept His gifts. And His |
| M:29.5 | given you when you need it. Prepare for this each morning, remember | God when you can throughout the day, ask the Holy Spirit's help when |
| M:29.6 | remains attractive to you, He will respond with evil? Hardly! For | God has given Him the power to translate your prayers of the heart |
| M:29.6 | an attack is a call for help. And He responds with help accordingly. | God would be cruel if He let your words replace His Own. A loving |
| M:29.7 | all things are given you. Not in the future but immediately—now. | God does not wait, for waiting implies time and He is timeless. |
| M:29.7 | and your fear of harm, your dreams of danger and selected “wrongs.” | God knows but His Son, and as he was created, so he is. In confidence |
| M:29.8 | And now in all your doings be you blessed. | God turns to you for help to save the world. Teacher of God, His |
| M:29.8 | you blessed. God turns to you for help to save the world. Teacher of | God, His thanks He offers you, and all the world stands silent in the |
| M:29.8 | friendless. I give thanks for you and join your efforts on behalf of | God, knowing they are on my behalf as well and for all those who walk |
| M:29.8 | knowing they are on my behalf as well and for all those who walk to | God with me. |

| Tx:2.80 | from your own undivided will to do. There is no strain in doing | God's Will as soon as you recognize that it is also your own. |
| Tx:3.21 | vicious. Sacrificing another in any way is a clear cut violation of | God's own injunction that man should be merciful even as his Father |

| Tx:4.40 | nature of invention is not worthy of the abstract creativity of | God's creations. |
| Tx:4.55 | The calm being of | God's Kingdom, which in your sane mind is perfectly conscious, is |
| Tx:4.57 | left undone accordingly, and then change your minds to think with | God's. |
| Tx:4.58 | much easier than trying to think against it. Your mind is one with | God's. Denying this and thinking otherwise has held your ego together |
| Tx:4.89 | demonstrate that you are not an ego. I repeat that I do not choose | God's channels wrongly. The Holy One shares my trust and always |
| Tx:4.102 | its own individual willingness to share in it. The truly helpful are | God's miracle workers whom I direct until we are all united in the |

| Tx:5.10 | open to many different interpretations. As a man and as one of | God's creations, my right thinking, which came from the Universal |

| Tx:5.26 | The Holy Spirit is the way in which | God's Will can be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Both Heaven and |
| Tx:5.32 | of the Holy Trinity because His Mind is partly yours and also partly | God's. This needs clarification, not in statement, since we have said |
| Tx:5.36 | meaningless in eternity. We have said before that the Holy Spirit is | God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the Holy Spirit reminds |
| Tx:5.50 | belongs to every part. It is shared because it is loving. Sharing is | God's way of creating and also yours. Your ego can keep you in exile |
| Tx:5.52 | me is still irresistibly drawn to every mind created by God, because | God's Wholeness is the wholeness of His Son. |
| Tx:5.54 | on it. Make it dependable in my name, because my name is the name of | God's Son. What I learned I give you freely, and the mind which was |
| Tx:5.55 | your brother better than by rendering unto God the things which are | God's? |
| Tx:5.57 | it. The full power of creation cannot be expressed as long as any of | God's ideas withhold it from the Kingdom. The joint will of all the |
| Tx:5.61 | before of the authority problem as involving the concept of usurping | God's power. The ego believes that this is what you did because it |
| Tx:5.79 | can be no case against a Child of God, and every witness to guilt in | God's creations is bearing false witness to God Himself. |
| Tx:5.80 | Appeal everything you believe gladly to | God's own Higher Court, because it speaks for Him and therefore |
| Tx:5.83 | whose mind is stayed (or set) on Him,” a statement which means that | God's peace is set in the Holy Spirit because it is fixed on God. It |
| Tx:6.12 | There is no choice in this because only you can be the foundation of | God's church. A church is where an altar is, and the presence of the |
| Tx:6.25 | appreciated except by a whole mind which recognizes the wholeness of | God's creation and by this recognition knows its Creator. Exclusion |
| Tx:6.31 | Spirit's perception is the counterpart of the perfect equality of | God's knowing. The ego's perception has no counterpart in God, but |
| Tx:6.33 | of the thinker from which they [extend] outward. This is as true of | God's thinking as it is of yours. Because your minds are split, you |
| Tx:6.33 | inspire perception and lead it toward God by making it parallel to | God's way of thinking and thus guarantee their ultimate meeting. This |
| Tx:6.36 | This is the way in which you must perceive | God's creations, bringing all of your perceptions into the one |
| Tx:6.52 | Your abilities are totally useless in the presence of | God's accomplishments and also of yours. Accomplishments are results |
| Tx:6.57 | joyous. This is an ongoing process, not in time, but in eternity. | God's extending outward, though not His completeness, is blocked when |
| Tx:6.77 | however, be insane to believe that it is up to you to decide what | God's creations are. The Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly |
| Tx:6.80 | it is a giant step toward the unified perception which parallels | God's knowing. |
| Tx:6.91 | is not apparent to you. This is why you must be vigilant on | God's behalf. The ego speaks against His creation and therefore does |
| Tx:7.2 | therefore be limited, and you would not be co-creators with God. As | God's creative Thought proceeds from Him to you, so must your |
| Tx:7.2 | creations. Only in this way can all creative power extend outward. | God's accomplishments are not yours. But yours are like His. He |
| Tx:7.3 | limitless, it does not stop. It creates forever, but not in time. | God's creations have always been, because He has always been. Your |
| Tx:7.4 | give, not bargain. To bargain is to limit giving, and this is not | God's Will. To will with God is to create like Him. God does not |
| Tx:7.16 | of His message is always the same, and only the meaning matters. | God's law of Creation in perfect form does not involve the use of |
| Tx:7.26 | God's meaning waits in the Kingdom, because that is where He placed | |
| Tx:7.26 | Kingdom, because it belongs there, as you do. How can you, who are | God's meaning, perceive yourselves as absent from it? You can see |
| Tx:7.28 | Because | God's equal Sons have everything, they cannot compete. Yet if they |
| Tx:7.34 | difficulty, because every part of creation is of one order. This is | God's Will and yours. The laws of God establish this, and the Holy |
| Tx:7.65 | Any belief that you accept which is apart from this will obscure | God's Voice in you and will therefore obscure God to you. Unless you |
| Tx:7.65 | your sanity, and your limitless power. This limitless power is | God's gift to you, because it is what you are. If you dissociate your |
| Tx:7.66 | Perceived without your part in it, | God's creation is perceived as weak, and those who see themselves as |
| Tx:7.68 | with God and are therefore depriving yourselves of joy. This is not | God's Will but yours. If your will is out of accord with God's, you |
| Tx:7.68 | This is not God's Will but yours. If your will is out of accord with | God's, you are willing without meaning. Yet because God's Will is |
| Tx:7.68 | of accord with God's, you are willing without meaning. Yet because | God's Will is unchangeable, no real conflict of will is possible. |
| Tx:7.69 | Creation, not separation, is your will because it is | God's, and nothing that opposes this means anything at all. Being a |
| Tx:7.73 | You do not need | God's blessing since that you have forever, but you do need yours. |
| Tx:7.93 | not wish to contain God but to extend His Being. The extension of | God's Being is the Soul's only function. Its fullness cannot be |
| Tx:7.96 | gave you the means for keeping it, and you have done so. Disobeying | God's Will is meaningful only to the insane. In truth it is |
| Tx:7.96 | In truth it is impossible. Your self-fullness is as boundless as | God's. Like His, it extends forever and in perfect peace. Its |
| Tx:7.100 | its truth has nothing to do with your willingness at all. Truth is | God's Will. Share His Will, and you share what He knows. Deny His |
| Tx:7.102 | It is not obvious to you. You believe that doing the opposite of | God's Will can be better for you. You also believe that it is |
| Tx:7.102 | for you. You also believe that it is possible to do the opposite of | God's Will. Therefore, you believe that an impossible choice is open |
| Tx:7.105 | you do not have to decide anything. Everything has been given you by | God's decision. That is His Will, and you can not undo it. Even the |
| Tx:7.106 | This means that you are confused about what you are. If you are | God's Will and do not accept His Will[, you can only be not accepting |
| Tx:7.107 | The world goes against your nature, being out of accord with | God's laws. The world perceives orders of difficulty in everything. |
| Tx:7.113 | cannot establish your reality any more than you can establish | God's. But you can know both. Being is known by sharing. Because God |
| Tx:8.10 | because that is what you are. The lesson is that your will and | God's cannot be out of accord, because they are one. This is the |
| Tx:8.11 | The ego wants to teach you that you want to oppose | God's Will. This unnatural lesson cannot be learned, but the attempt |
| Tx:8.13 | is God. Yet He cannot conceive of God without you, because it is not | God's Will to be without you. When you have learned that your will is |
| Tx:8.13 | Will to be without you. When you have learned that your will is | God's, you could no more will to be without Him than He could will to |
| Tx:8.15 | except all power and glory can the Holy Spirit appeal to restore | God's Kingdom? His appeal, then, is merely to what the Kingdom is and |
| Tx:8.17 | the wish for other experience will block its accomplishment, because | God's Will cannot be forced upon you, being an experience of total |
| Tx:8.17 | why God gave Him to you. Only His teaching will release your will to | God's, uniting it with His power and glory and establishing them as |
| Tx:8.24 | cannot be powerless to do this, because this is your power. Glory is | God's gift to you, because that is what He is. See this glory |
| Tx:8.25 | If | God's Will for you is complete peace and joy, unless you experience |
| Tx:8.27 | yourself and of Him Who sent me to you. You were in darkness until | God's Will was done completely by any part of the Sonship. When this |
| Tx:8.31 | cannot oppose yours without competing with it and thereby violating | God's Will for you. |
| Tx:8.32 | only you can choose to listen to my teaching. How else can it be, if | God's Kingdom is freedom? Freedom cannot be learned by tyranny of any |
| Tx:8.32 | be learned by tyranny of any kind, and the perfect equality of all | God's Sons cannot be recognized through the dominion of one will over |
| Tx:8.32 | cannot be recognized through the dominion of one will over another. | God's Sons are equal in will, all being the Will of their Father. |
| Tx:8.34 | Freedom is the only gift you can offer to | God's Sons, being an acknowledgment of what they are and what He is. |
| Tx:8.38 | God's Oneness and ours are not separate, because His Oneness | |
| Tx:8.39 | He gave me] this confidence for both of us and all of us. I bring | God's peace back to all His Children, because I received it of Him |
| Tx:8.39 | against our united wills, because nothing can prevail against | God's. Would you know the Will of God for you? Ask it of me who knows |
| Tx:8.41 | only illusions of another direction can obscure the one for which | God's Voice speaks in all of us. Never accord the ego the power to |
| Tx:8.42 | they too can lay aside their weakness and add their strength to us. | God's welcome waits for us all, and He will welcome us as I am |
| Tx:8.44 | Listen to the story of the prodigal son, and learn what | God's treasure is and yours: This son of a loving father left his |
| Tx:8.46 | There can be no question of its worth because its value lies in | God's sharing Himself with it and establishing its value forever. |
| Tx:8.47 | Your function is to add to | God's treasure by creating yours. His Will to you is His Will for |
| Tx:8.48 | you think you are unwilling to will with God, you are not thinking. | God's Will is thought. It cannot be contradicted by thought. God does |
| Tx:8.48 | their thought is so powerful that they can even imprison the mind of | God's Son if they so choose. This choice does make the Son's function |
| Tx:8.49 | apart from each other we cannot function at all. The whole power of | God's Son lies in all of us, but not in any of us alone. God would |
| Tx:8.50 | You do not understand this for a very simple reason. You who are | God's own treasure do not regard yourselves as valuable. Given this |
| Tx:8.55 | lesson in communion, which has value until communion is. This is | God's way of making unlimited what you have limited. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:8.65 | promotes depression instead of joy, you cannot be listening to | God's joyous Teacher, and you must be learning amiss. To see a body |
| Tx:8.67 | Joy is unified purpose, and unified purpose is only | God's. When yours is unified, it is His. Interfere with His purpose, |
| Tx:8.87 | not my name alone, for ours is a shared identification. The name of | God's Son is one, and you are enjoined to do the works of love, |
| Tx:8.94 | of yourselves, the Holy Spirit must remind you that this is not | God's Will because it is not yours. There is no difference between |
| Tx:8.94 | it is not yours. There is no difference between your will and | God's. If you did not have split minds, you would recognize that |
| Tx:8.96 | only safety. Your will is your salvation because it is the same as | God's. The separation is nothing more than the belief that it is |
| Tx:8.97 | No mind can believe that its will is stronger than | God's. If, then, a mind believes that its will is different from His, |
| Tx:8.97 | from His, it can only decide either that there is no God or that | God's Will is fearful. The former accounts for the atheist and the |
| Tx:8.99 | himself. This recognition is the recognition that his will and | God's are one. In the presence of truth, there are no unbelievers and |
| Tx:8.105 | Remember, then, that | God's Will is already possible and nothing else will ever be. This is |
| Tx:8.112 | for you alone? Could you hear His answer except as He answers all of | God's Sons? Hear of your brother what you would have me hear of you, |
| Tx:8.113 | to me through you. If you would hear me, hear my brothers in whom | God's Voice speaks. The answer to all prayers lies in them. You will |
| Tx:8.114 | This is not going beyond yourself but toward yourself. Hear only | God's Answer in His Sons, and you are answered. |
| Tx:8.117 | to get much for little is to believe that you can bargain with God. | God's laws are always fair and perfectly consistent. By giving you |
| Tx:8.119 | Because I will to know myself, I see you as | God's Son and my brother. |
| Tx:9.20 | The ego's plan for forgiveness is far more widely used than | God's. This is because it is undertaken by unhealed healers and is |
| Tx:9.34 | create as He did, and your dissociation will not alter this. Neither | God's light nor yours is dimmed because you do not see. Because the |
| Tx:9.35 | the witnesses to your reality, as you were created witnesses to | God's. Yet when the Sonship comes together and accepts its oneness, |
| Tx:9.37 | This cannot mean anything to you, however, until you remember | God's open arms and finally know His open mind. Like Him, you are |
| Tx:9.37 | world has to offer. Everything else would be totally meaningless. | God's meaning is incomplete without you, and you are incomplete |
| Tx:9.38 | God's Will is your salvation. Would He not have given you the means | |
| Tx:9.51 | The ego is immobilized in the presence of | God's grandeur, because His grandeur establishes your freedom. Even |
| Tx:9.53 | despair, and therefore you cannot want the ego. Your grandeur is | God's answer to the ego because it is true. Littleness and grandeur |
| Tx:9.57 | value, would not have it so, and so it is not so. Your value is in | God's Mind and therefore not in yours alone. To accept yourself as |
| Tx:9.57 | it means that you believe your evaluation of yourself is truer than | God's. |
| Tx:9.58 | Yet if truth is indivisible, your evaluation of yourself must be | God's. You did not establish your value, and it needs no defense. |
| Tx:9.59 | in the world can take this responsibility from you. You can violate | God's laws in your imagination, but you cannot escape from them. They |
| Tx:9.60 | except the ephemeral, and how can the ephemeral be real if you are | God's only creation, and He created you eternal? Your holy will |
| Tx:9.71 | not what you are. Your denial of reality precludes the acceptance of | God's gift, because you have accepted something else in its place. If |
| Tx:9.72 | attack, you must have forgotten what you are. And if your reality is | God's, when you attack you are not remembering Him. This is not |
| Tx:9.79 | created because of the calm knowledge that each one is part of Him. | God's Son knows no idols, but he does know his Father. Health in this |
| Tx:9.79 | become sick, but my value of you can heal you because the value of | God's Son is one. When I said, “My peace I give unto you,” I meant |
| Tx:9.81 | I do not bring | God's message with deception, and you will learn this as you learn |
| Tx:9.84 | accept him, you will bow down and worship him because he was made as | God's replacement. He is the belief that you can choose which god is |
| Tx:9.85 | God, and you are afraid of him, because he cannot be reconciled with | God's Will. If you attack him, you will make him real to you. But if |
| Tx:9.87 | the split is the sign that you have removed part of your mind from | God's Will, and this means it is out of control. To be out of control |
| Tx:9.88 | God's laws will keep your minds at peace, because peace is His Will, | |
| Tx:9.96 | Sickness and death entered the Mind of | God's Son against His Will. The “attack on God” made His Son think he |
| Tx:9.103 | waits for his return, for it was created as the dwelling place of | God's Son. You are not at home anywhere else or in any other |
| Tx:10.2 | of perceived conflict, because the ego was made out of the wish of | God's Son to father Him. The ego, then, is nothing more than a |
| Tx:10.3 | by projection, but God has created by extension. The cornerstone of | God's creation is you, for His thought system is light. Remember the |
| Tx:10.5 | wills His Son to be and where he is. In whatever part of the Mind of | God's Son you restore this reality, you restore it to yourself. For |
| Tx:10.7 | it was your creation, without you there would be an empty place in | God's Mind. Extension cannot be blocked, and it has no voids. It |
| Tx:10.10 | there if it was given you because God did not will to be alone? | God's Mind cannot be lessened. It can only be increased, and |
| Tx:10.10 | limit, and what it creates is not limited. To give without limit is | God's Will for you because only this can bring you the joy which is |
| Tx:10.12 | This is not strange when you realize that to deny is to “not know.” | God's Will is that you are His Son. By denying this, you denied your |
| Tx:10.12 | and therefore do not know what it is. The reason you must ask what | God's Will is in everything is merely because it is yours. You do not |
| Tx:10.12 | but the Holy Spirit remembers it for you. Ask Him, therefore, what | God's Will is for you, and He will tell you yours. It cannot be too |
| Tx:10.13 | The projection of the ego makes it appear as if | God's Will is outside yourself and therefore not yours. In this |
| Tx:10.13 | and therefore not yours. In this interpretation, it is possible for | God's Will and yours to conflict. God then may seem to demand of you |
| Tx:10.13 | Immortality is His Will for His Son and His Son's will for himself. | God's Son cannot will death for himself because His Father is Life |
| Tx:10.14 | you cannot change this because it is immutable. It is immutable by | God's Will and yours, for otherwise His Will would not have been |
| Tx:10.14 | His Will would not have been extended. You are afraid to know | God's Will because you believe it is not yours. This belief is your |
| Tx:10.15 | For it is your will to be like Him, Whose Will it is that it be so. | God's Will is that His Son be one, and united with Him in His |
| Tx:10.17 | from your brother or in your own mind, teaches you that you are | God's Son. In every hurtful thought you hold, wherever you perceive |
| Tx:10.17 | thought you hold, wherever you perceive it, lies the denial of | God's Fatherhood and your Sonship. |
| Tx:10.18 | must be to fail to understand. You can heal only yourself, for only | God's Son needs healing. He needs it because he does not understand |
| Tx:10.23 | hurt yourselves, you could never suffer in any way, for that is not | God's Will for His Son. Pain is not of Him, for He knows no attack |
| Tx:10.24 | God's Son is indeed in need of comfort, for he knows not what he | |
| Tx:10.26 | abide with you on the way. But the dark journey is not the way of | God's Son. Walk in light, and do not see the dark companions, for |
| Tx:10.28 | by the dark comforters, and never let them enter the Mind of | God's Son, for they have no place in His temple. When you are tempted |
| Tx:10.29 | Only | God's Comforter can comfort you. In the quiet of His temple, He waits |
| Tx:10.29 | for He Himself dwells there and abides in peace. You cannot enter | God's Presence with the dark companions beside you, but you also |
| Tx:10.31 | that the Sonship is your salvation, for the Sonship is your Soul. As | God's creation, it is yours, and belonging to you, it is His. Your |
| Tx:10.32 | deny the Father without believing that the Father has denied him? | God's laws hold only for your protection, and they never hold in |
| Tx:10.35 | and as strong an ego defense as blaming others. You cannot enter | God's Presence if you attack His Son. When His Son lifts his voice in |
| Tx:10.36 | Christ is at | God's altar, waiting to welcome His Son. But come wholly without |
| Tx:10.37 | At | God's altar Christ waits for the restoration of Himself in you. God |
| Tx:10.50 | If the ego's goal of autonomy could be accomplished, | God's purpose could be defeated, and this is impossible. Only by |
| Tx:10.50 | According to the ego's teaching, its goal can be accomplished, and | God's purpose can not. According to the Holy Spirit's teaching, only |
| Tx:10.50 | God's purpose can not. According to the Holy Spirit's teaching, only | God's purpose is accomplishment, and it is already accomplished. |
| Tx:10.51 | accomplish its goal is happiness. But it is given you to know that | God's function is yours and happiness cannot be found apart from your |
| Tx:10.52 | Upheld by fear, this is what the ego would have you believe. Yet | God's Son is not insane and cannot believe it. Let him but recognize |
| Tx:10.57 | what He created. Their silence is the sign that they have beheld | God's Son, and in the Presence of Christ they need demonstrate |
| Tx:10.61 | to limit what you see by narrow little beliefs which are unworthy of | God's Son. For until Christ comes into His own, the Son of God will |
| Tx:10.62 | the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, for such is the nature of | God's Son as His Father created him. |
| Tx:10.63 | Do not underestimate the power of the devotion of | God's Son nor the power of the god he worships over him. For he |
| Tx:10.65 | not find peace until you have removed the nails from the hands of | God's Son and taken the last thorn from his forehead. The love of God |
| Tx:10.65 | that I live in you. For the undoing of the crucifixion of | God's Son is the work of the redemption, in which everyone has a part |
| Tx:10.66 | placed a crown of thorns upon your own head. Yet you cannot crucify | God's Son, for the Will of God cannot die. His Son has been redeemed |
| Tx:10.68 | God's Son is saved. Bring only this awareness to the Sonship, and you | |
| Tx:10.68 | mine. There is no order of difficulty in miracles because all of | God's Sons are of equal value, and their equality is their oneness. |
| Tx:10.83 | you. Believe that the truth is in me, for I know that it is in you. | God's Sons have nothing which they do not share. Ask for truth of any |
| Tx:10.83 | answer in him, to give to anyone who asks it of him. Ask anything of | God's Son and His Father will answer you, for Christ is not deceived |
| Tx:10.84 | Thought of His Father by which He was created. Be not deceived in | God's Son, for thereby you must be deceived in yourself. And being |
| Tx:10.85 | simple request. What problems will not disappear in the presence of | God's answer? Ask, then, to learn of the reality of your brother |
| Tx:10.86 | together as we live together and love together. Be not deceived in | God's Son, for he is one with himself and one with his Father. Love |
| Tx:10.87 | offends you, you are offended in yourself and are condemning | God's Son, whom God condemneth not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all |
| Tx:10.87 | whom God condemneth not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all offense of | God's Son against himself and perceive no one but through His |
| Tx:11.6 | can you be helped. Deny him your help, and you will not perceive | God's answer to you. The Holy Spirit does not need your help in |
| Tx:11.7 | How simple, then, is | God's plan for salvation. There is but one response to reality, for |
| Tx:11.8 | but one need in yourself, you will be healed. For you will recognize | God's answer as you want it to be, and if you want it in truth, it |
| Tx:11.15 | the way to remember God. For you forgot your brothers with Him, and | God's answer to your forgetting is but the way to remember. |
| Tx:11.30 | If only the loving thoughts of | God's Son are the world's reality, the real world must be in his |
| Tx:11.39 | goal He sets before you He will give you. For He will never deceive | God's Son, whom He loves with the love of the Father. |
| Tx:11.52 | it is your will to learn aright, and nothing can oppose the Will of | God's Son. His learning is as unlimited as he is. |
| Tx:11.60 | of knowledge. At the altar of God, the holy perception of | God's Son becomes so enlightened that light streams into it, and the |
| Tx:11.60 | becomes so enlightened that light streams into it, and the Spirit of | God's Son shines in the Mind of the Father and becomes one with it. |
| Tx:11.71 | have seen reality, for the reality of your mind is the loveliest of | God's creations. Coming only from God, its power and grandeur could |
| Tx:11.78 | God's Son is as safe as his Father, for the Son knows his Father's | |
| Tx:11.79 | be seen is what the Holy Spirit sees. The definition of reality is | God's, not yours. He created it, and He knows what it is. You who |
| Tx:11.82 | you have tried to interpose between your awareness and truth. | God's Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:11.83 | world is a thing of despair, for it can never be. And you who share | God's Being with Him could never be content without reality. What God |
| Tx:11.86 | The acceptance of guilt into the Mind of | God's Son was the beginning of the separation, as the acceptance of |
| Tx:11.87 | attack would be salvation, and this is the ego's interpretation, not | God's. Only the world of guilt could demand this, for only the guilty |
| Tx:11.88 | This world is a picture of the crucifixion of | God's Son. And until you realize that God's Son cannot be crucified, |
| Tx:11.88 | picture of the crucifixion of God's Son. And until you realize that | God's Son cannot be crucified, this is the world you will see. Yet |
| Tx:11.88 | Yet you will not realize this until you accept the eternal fact that | God's Son is not guilty. He deserves only love because he has given |
| Tx:11.89 | Christ from your sight, for it is the denial of the blamelessness of | God's Son. |
| Tx:11.90 | never was and can never be. Without guilt the ego has no life, and | God's Son is without guilt. As you look upon yourselves and judge |
| Tx:11.93 | now, and the brightness of his purity shines untouched forever in | God's Mind. God's Son will always be as he was created. Deny your |
| Tx:11.93 | the brightness of his purity shines untouched forever in God's Mind. | God's Son will always be as he was created. Deny your world and judge |
| Tx:11.94 | Atonement for yourselves, you will realize that there is no guilt in | God's Son. And only as you look upon him as guiltless can you |
| Tx:11.94 | condemn only yourself, and by so doing, you cannot know that you are | God's Son. You have denied the condition of his Being, which is his |
| Tx:11.95 | to be without him. And so it has always been. Let the holiness of | God's Son shine away the cloud of guilt that darkens your mind, and |
| Tx:11.96 | continuity is guaranteed. Yet the guarantee of your continuity is | God's, not the ego's. And immortality is the opposite of time, for |
| Tx:11.97 | Accepting the guiltlessness of the Son of God as yours is therefore | God's way of reminding you of His Son and what he is in truth. For |
| Tx:11.99 | without guilt, attack is impossible. You, then, are saved because | God's Son is guiltless. And being wholly pure, you are invulnerable. |
| Tx:12.3 | that dark and secret place is the realization that you have betrayed | God's Son by condemning him to death. You do not even suspect this |
| Tx:12.3 | urge is so intense that nothing short of the crucifixion of | God's Son can ultimately satisfy it. It does not know who the Son of |
| Tx:12.5 | light of truth, let us recognize that you believe you have crucified | God's Son. You have not admitted to this “terrible” secret because |
| Tx:12.6 | of the ego. When it was confronted with the real guiltlessness of | God's Son, it did attempt to kill him, and the reason it gave was |
| Tx:12.12 | You would be willing to look even upon your savage wish to kill | God's Son if you did not believe that it saves you from love. For |
| Tx:12.14 | insane belief system because you think you would be helpless in | God's Presence, and you would save yourself from His love because you |
| Tx:12.16 | games you offer it can heal it, for here is the real crucifixion of | God's Son. |
| Tx:12.18 | will welcome it, and it will be yours. For grandeur is the right of | God's Son, and no illusions can satisfy him or save him from what he |
| Tx:12.20 | of Him what only such a father could give. And the peace of | God's Son was shattered, for he no longer understood his Father. He |
| Tx:12.43 | what He is, He knows His Father. Beyond your darkest dreams, He sees | God's guiltless Son within you, shining in perfect radiance, which is |
| Tx:12.47 | without condemnation upon the present. For the cloud which obscures | God's Son to you is the past, and if you would have it past and gone, |
| Tx:12.52 | with them is your continuity, unbroken because it is wholly shared. | God's guiltless Son is only light. There is no darkness in him |
| Tx:12.52 | light to the Creator of light. The holy light that shines forth from | God's Son is the witness that his light is of his Father. |
| Tx:12.57 | In your name He has given for you and given you the gifts He gave. | God's Son is still as loving as his Father. Continuous with his |
| Tx:12.65 | It is | God's Will that nothing touch His Son except Himself, and nothing |
| Tx:12.71 | for His sight is ever on the journey's end which is His goal. | God's Son is not a traveler through outer worlds. However holy his |
| Tx:12.76 | His Spirit. The sound of it will banish sorrow from the Mind of | God's most holy Son, where it cannot abide. Healing in time is |
| Tx:13.6 | into the One Reality of God. The only miracle that ever was is | God's most holy Son, created in the One Reality that is his Father. |
| Tx:13.8 | banner of His teaching, and as we grow in strength, the power of | God's Son will move in us, and we will leave no one untouched and no |
| Tx:13.29 | vision, He would show you the perfect purity that is forever within | God's Son. |
| Tx:13.30 | You cannot enter into real relationships with any of | God's Sons unless you love them all and equally. Love is not special. |
| Tx:13.39 | you choose to listen to, whatever strange thoughts may occur to you, | God's Will is done. You will find the peace in which He has |
| Tx:13.43 | Learn that even the darkest nightmare that disturbed the Mind of | God's sleeping Son holds no power over him. He will learn the lesson |
| Tx:13.44 | Can | God's Son lose himself in dreams when God has placed within him the |
| Tx:13.51 | which you made would be forever dark. The thoughts which the Mind of | God's Son projects have all the power that he gives to them. The |
| Tx:13.67 | by making it manifest and sharing it. Let me bring peace to | God's Son from his Father. |
| Tx:13.70 | No penalty is ever asked of | God's Son except by himself and of himself. Every chance given him to |
| Tx:13.73 | can make decisions by yourself or for yourself alone. No thought of | God's Son can be separate or isolated in its effects. Every decision |
| Tx:13.76 | Would you deny the truth of | God's decision and place your pitiful appraisal of yourself in place |
| Tx:13.76 | place of His calm and unswerving value of His Son? Nothing can shake | God's conviction of the perfect purity of everything that He created, |
| Tx:13.79 | Seek not to appraise the worth of | God's Son, whom He created holy, for to do so is to evaluate his |
| Tx:13.79 | crime, which no one in this world or Heaven could possibly commit. | God's Spirit teaches only that the “sin” of self-replacement on the |
| Tx:13.89 | your guilt arises from your failure to fulfill your function in | God's Mind with all of yours. Can you escape this guilt by failing to |
| Tx:14.5 | God. Would you have all of it transformed into a radiant message of | God's Love, to share with all the lonely ones who denied Him with |
| Tx:14.6 | but the message given to each to share is always the same— | God's Son is guiltless. Each one teaches the message differently and |
| Tx:14.8 | The inheritance of the Kingdom is the right of | God's Son, given him in his creation. Do not try to steal it from |
| Tx:14.11 | most holy lesson, which seeks but to restore what is the right of | God's creation. From everyone whom you accord release from guilt, you |
| Tx:14.23 | the light come streaming through. There are no hidden chambers in | God's temple. Its gates are open wide to greet His Son. No one can |
| Tx:14.35 | with what you are. You cannot join with anything except reality. | God's glory and His Son's belong to you in truth. They have no |
| Tx:14.42 | of the images of other gods must dim the mirror that would hold | God's reflection in it. Earth can reflect Heaven or hell; God or the |
| Tx:14.61 | Child of light by Him to Whom God gave it. This lesson shines with | God's glory, for in it lies His power, which He shares so gladly with |
| Tx:14.63 | in your perfect peace, then you can be sure that you have learned | God's lesson and not yours. Unless all this is true, there are dark |
| Tx:14.63 | of perfect peace means but one thing: you think you do not will for | God's Son what His Father wills for him. Every dark lesson teaches |
| Tx:14.67 | on which you can depend for miracles has been provided for you. | God's Son can make no needs His Father will not meet if he but turn |
| Tx:14.71 | God's Son will always be indivisible. As we are held as one in God, | |
| Tx:14.71 | As we are held as one in God, so do we learn as one in Him. | God's Teacher is as like to His Creator as is His Son, and through |
| Tx:15.1 | Yet that is what time is for—to learn just that and nothing more. | God's Teacher cannot be satisfied with His teaching until it |
| Tx:15.15 | it to the Holy Spirit to use. He needs but very little to restore | God's whole power to you. He Who transcends time for you understands |
| Tx:15.15 | not in time but in eternity. There never was an instant in which | God's Son could lose his purity. His changeless state is beyond time, |
| Tx:15.15 | at all. For, caught in the single instant of the eternal sanctity of | God's creation, it is transformed into forever. Give the eternal |
| Tx:15.17 | Teacher He has appointed to translate time into eternity. Blessed is | God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to teach God's holy Son his holiness. |
| Tx:15.17 | into eternity. Blessed is God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to teach | God's holy Son his holiness. His joy is not contained in time. His |
| Tx:15.17 | is for you because His joy is yours. Through Him you stand before | God's altar, where He gently translates hell into Heaven. For it is |
| Tx:15.21 | as not separate. Fear not that you will not be given help in this. | God's Teacher and His lesson will support your strength. It is only |
| Tx:15.34 | Forget not that his call is yours, and answer him with me. | God's power is forever on the side of His host, for it protects only |
| Tx:15.36 | every plan that you have made for your salvation in exchange for | God's. His will content you, and there is nothing else that can bring |
| Tx:15.57 | be a limited gift to you. In the holy instant, we share our faith in | God's Son because we recognize together that he is wholly worthy of |
| Tx:15.59 | God for love, your call remains as strong. Nor do you think that, by | God's answer to him, your hope of answer is diminished. On the |
| Tx:15.78 | invited and made welcome. And you understand that your completion is | God's, Whose only need is to have you be complete. For your |
| Tx:15.80 | instant all that there is by desiring that it be all that there is. | God's Son has such great need of your willingness to strive for this |
| Tx:15.81 | will never leave you and what you can never leave. The loneliness of | God's Son is the loneliness of his Father. Refuse not the awareness |
| Tx:15.83 | The Holy Spirit is | God's attempt to free you of what He does not understand. And because |
| Tx:15.90 | not Atonement in further separation. And limit not your vision of | God's Son to what interferes with his release and what the Holy |
| Tx:15.91 | interference in communication, and your thoughts will be as free as | God's. As you let the Holy Spirit teach you how to use the body only |
| Tx:16.18 | Do not interpret against | God's Love, for you have many witnesses which speak of it so clearly |
| Tx:16.25 | He is both God and you, as you are God and Him together. For | God's answer to the separation added more to you than you tried to |
| Tx:16.26 | to help you learn. Their gratitude has joined with yours and | God's to strengthen your faith in what you taught. For what you |
| Tx:16.42 | If special relationships of any kind would hinder | God's completion, can they have value to you? What would interfere |
| Tx:16.42 | with God must interfere with you. Only in time does interference in | God's completion seem to be possible. The bridge that He would carry |
| Tx:16.77 | What God has given you is truly given and will be truly received. For | God's gifts have no reality apart from your receiving them. Your |
| Tx:17.9 | taken by anything, is still the greatest accomplishment of all in | God's plan of Atonement. All else is learned, but this is given, |
| Tx:17.9 | blessing of your forgiveness on it. And with this final blessing of | God's Son upon himself, the real perception, born of the new |
| Tx:17.12 | leaf becomes a thing of wonder and a blade of grass a sign of | God's perfection. From the forgiven world, the Son of God is lifted |
| Tx:17.22 | the spark before you to light your way and make it clear to you. | God's Son is one. Whom God has joined as one, the ego cannot break |
| Tx:17.28 | them is clearly not to make happy. But the holy relationship shares | God's purpose, rather than aiming to make a substitute for it. Every |
| Tx:17.28 | Every special relationship which you have made is a substitute for | God's Will and glorifies yours instead of His because of the delusion |
| Tx:17.29 | was the ego's answer to the creation of the Holy Spirit, Who was | God's answer to the separation. For although the ego did not |
| Tx:17.30 | have all your holy relationships been carefully preserved to serve | God's purpose for you. |
| Tx:18.9 | and no substitute can keep you from each other. Your reality was | God's creation and has no substitute. |
| Tx:18.35 | of your small willingness combined with the unlimited power of | God's Will. You have been wrong in thinking that it is needful to |
| Tx:18.36 | to be ready to receive it. That is but to confuse your role with | God's. Atonement cannot come to those who think that they must first |
| Tx:18.84 | off and separate, which the Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in | God's keeping and needs no guide. Yet this wild and delusional |
| Tx:19.33 | be beyond the hope of healing. For there would be a power beyond | God's, capable of making another will which could attack His Will and |
| Tx:19.33 | give His Son a will apart from His and stronger. And each part of | God's fragmented creation would have a different will, opposed to His |
| Tx:19.42 | a little. And that little is a limit you would place upon the whole. | God's Will is One, not many. It has no opposition, for there is none |
| Tx:19.68 | if you would have its limitless power and use it for the Son of | God's release. It is not this you would be rid of, and having it you |
| Tx:19.84 | for God. Yet the retreat to death is not the end of conflict. Only | God's Answer is its end. The obstacle of your seeming love for death |
| Tx:19.107 | death. So will we prepare together the way unto the resurrection of | God's Son and let him rise again to glad remembrance of his Father, |
| Tx:20.1 | Let us not spend this holy week brooding on the crucifixion of | God's Son, but happily in the celebration of his release. For Easter |
| Tx:20.1 | has no meaning. But a risen Christ becomes the symbol of the Son of | God's forgiveness of himself; the sign he looks upon himself as |
| Tx:20.27 | His Son holy and kept him so. In your brother is the light of | God's eternal promise of your immortality. See him as sinless, and |
| Tx:20.36 | would fulfill. As that was given you, so will its fulfillment be. | God's guarantee will hold against all obstacles, for it rests on |
| Tx:20.37 | In this world, | God's Son comes closest to himself in a holy relationship. There he |
| Tx:20.37 | can anything be lost, and never lost forever. So do the parts of | God's Son gradually join in time, and with each joining is the end of |
| Tx:20.70 | Why do you think the body is a better home, a safer shelter for | God's Son? Why would you rather look on it than on the truth? How can |
| Tx:21.21 | This is the Son of | God's replacement for his will, a mad revolt against what must |
| Tx:21.53 | God's plan for your salvation could not have been established without | |
| Tx:21.54 | God's plan is simple—never circular and never self-defeating. He | |
| Tx:21.84 | be given only those who wish for constancy. The power of the Son of | God's desire remains the proof that he is wrong who sees himself as |
| Tx:21.88 | give. For he does not desire it while he remains uncertain, and | God's giving must be incomplete unless it is received. |
| Tx:21.89 | You who complete | God's Will and are His happiness, whose will is powerful as His, a |
| Tx:21.90 | What is the holy instant but | God's appeal to you to recognize what He has given you? Here is the |
| Tx:22.8 | What could be secret from | God's Will? Yet you believe that you have secrets. What could your |
| Tx:22.42 | yet been given to everyone. For you are here to let it be received. | God's offer still is open, yet it waits acceptance. From you who have |
| Tx:22.61 | Who can attack the Son of God and not attack his Father? How can | God's Son be weak and frail and easily destroyed unless his Father |
| Tx:23.5 | Let us not let littleness lead | God's Son into temptation. His glory is beyond it, measureless and |
| Tx:23.48 | indistinguishable from one another. So will they be to those who see | God's Son a body. For it is not the body that is like the Son's |
| Tx:23.49 | the same can have no different function. Creation is the means for | God's extension, and what is His must be His Son's as well. Either |
| Tx:24.5 | This takes many forms but always clashes with the reality of | God's creation and with the grandeur which He gave His Son. What else |
| Tx:24.22 | What has been given him makes you complete, as it does him. | God's love gave you to him and him to you because He gave Himself. |
| Tx:24.27 | Will of God. And thus it stands against yourself; your enemy, not | God's. So does it seem to split you off from God and make you |
| Tx:24.49 | doubts about yourself may disappear before his holiness. See in him | God's creation. For in him, his Father waits for your acknowledgment |
| Tx:24.52 | Forget not that the healing of | God's Son is all the world is for. That is the only purpose the Holy |
| Tx:24.52 | in all temptation to perceive what is not there and all belief | God's Son can suffer pain because he sees himself as he is not. |
| Tx:24.56 | is sacrament and benediction unto you. His errors cannot withhold | God's blessing from himself nor you who see him truly. His mistakes |
| Tx:24.57 | you to save from condemnation along with you. And both shall see | God's glory in His Son, whom you mistook as flesh and bound to laws |
| Tx:24.62 | child of earth on whom such love is lavished? What is this parody of | God's creation that takes the place of yours? And where are they, now |
| Tx:24.71 | to offer to the “father” what he wants. Such is the travesty on | God's creation. For as His Son's creation gave Him joy and witness to |
| Tx:25.18 | Accept | God's frame instead of yours, and you will see the masterpiece. Look |
| Tx:25.22 | you may see as one what never has been separate nor apart from all | God's love as given equally. |
| Tx:25.23 | offer it support. This is perception's form adapted to this world of | God's more basic law that love creates itself and nothing but itself. |
| Tx:25.24 | God's laws do not obtain directly to a world perception rules, for | |
| Tx:25.33 | purpose in his own creation that his joy might be increased and | God's along with his. |
| Tx:25.51 | It cannot be the “sinner's” wish for death is just as strong as is | God's Will for life. Nor can the basis of a world He did not make be |
| Tx:25.59 | What is dependable except | God's Love? And where does sanity abide except in Him? The One Who |
| Tx:25.59 | show you this in the alternative He chose especially for you. It is | God's Will that you remember this and so emerge from deepest mourning |
| Tx:25.59 | perfect joy. Accept the function that has been assigned to you in | God's Own plan to show His Sons that hell and Heaven are different, |
| Tx:25.61 | is sanity restored. And on this single rock of truth can faith in | God's eternal saneness rest in perfect confidence and perfect peace. |
| Tx:25.62 | Remember all temptation is but this—a mad belief that | God's insanity would make you sane and give you what you want. That |
| Tx:25.67 | Vengeance is alien to | God's Mind because He knows of justice. To be just is to be fair and |
| Tx:25.68 | them dead with lightning bolts torn from the “fires” of Heaven by | God's own angry hand. They do believe that Heaven is hell and are |
| Tx:25.69 | a messenger from hell sent from above in treachery and guile to work | God's vengeance on them in the guise of a deliverer and friend. What |
| Tx:25.72 | In | God's own justice does He recognize all you deserve but understands |
| Tx:25.72 | are not different. Because they are the same does mercy stand at | God's right hand and give the Son of God the power to forgive himself |
| Tx:25.75 | yours. And so the Holy Spirit's special function has been fulfilled. | God's Son has found a witness unto his sinlessness and not his sin. |
| Tx:25.77 | vengeance in all forms. The world deceives, but it cannot replace | God's justice with a version of its own. For only love is just and |
| Tx:25.77 | never fear that you in your unfairness will deprive yourself of what | God's justice has allotted you. |
| Tx:25.79 | to receive it disappears and you are willing it be given you. | God's justice warrants gratitude, not fear. Nothing you give is lost |
| Tx:25.79 | preserved [for you] in Heaven, where all of the treasures given to | God's Son are kept for him and offered anyone who but holds out his |
| Tx:25.84 | Salvation cannot seek to help | God's Son be more unfair than he has sought to be. If miracles, the |
| Tx:25.88 | What is | God's belongs to everyone and is his due. |
| Tx:26.4 | of him and you. What greater sacrifice could be demanded than that | God's Son perceive himself without his Father? And his Father be |
| Tx:26.4 | any sacrifice is asked of anyone. What witness to the wholeness of | God's Son is seen within a world of separate bodies, however much he |
| Tx:26.7 | have power to make of them what God willed not they be. In Heaven | God's Son is not imprisoned in a body nor is sacrificed in solitude |
| Tx:26.8 | him by One Who knows His gifts can never suffer sacrifice and loss. | God's justice rests in gentleness upon His Son and keeps him safe |
| Tx:26.13 | hurt be large or little. He makes but one judgment—that to hurt | God's Son must be unfair and therefore is not so. |
| Tx:26.39 | illusions have the power to keep you in a place of death, a vault | God's Son entered an instant, to be instantly restored unto His |
| Tx:26.45 | one illusion as your only friend. This is no friendship worthy of | God's Son, nor one with which he could remain content. Yet God has |
| Tx:26.49 | answer to the world of sickness which applies to all its forms. | God's answer is eternal, though it operates in time where it is |
| Tx:26.50 | God's answer lies where the belief in sin must be, for only there can | |
| Tx:26.51 | must yield with equal ease to what God gave as answer to them all. | God's Will is One. And any wish that seems to go against His Will has |
| Tx:26.52 | Heaven be opposed by its own opposite, as real as it. Then would | God's Will be split in two and all creation be subjected to the laws |
| Tx:26.53 | and serves to bring the joy this world denies to every aspect of | God's Son where sin was thought to rule. Perhaps you do not see the |
| Tx:26.55 | Yet is this wish in line with Heaven's state and not in opposition to | God's Will. Although it falls far short of giving you your full |
| Tx:26.61 | can merely shift effects to other forms. And this is not release. | God's Son could never be content with less than full salvation and |
| Tx:26.61 | whole idea of sacrifice. If loss in any form is possible, then is | God's Son made incomplete and not himself. [Nor will he know himself |
| Tx:27.1 | is total. If it could occur at all, it would entail the whole of | God's creation and the Father with the sacrifice of his beloved Son. |
| Tx:27.3 | or in need of anything, you but accuse your brother of attack upon | God's Son. You hold a picture of your crucifixion before his eyes |
| Tx:27.20 | in your sight and his. And laughter will replace your sighs because | God's Son remembered that he is God's Son. |
| Tx:27.20 | will replace your sighs because God's Son remembered that he is | God's Son. |
| Tx:27.22 | yourself and who you are. What is the separation but a wish to take | God's function from Him and deny that it is His? Yet if it is not |
| Tx:27.57 | God's Witness sees no witnesses against the body. Neither does He | |
| Tx:27.73 | nor ever will. Nothing more fearful than an idle dream has terrified | God's Son and made him think that he has lost his innocence, denied |
| Tx:28.16 | and receives the gift that he has given Him. It is because he is | God's Son that he must also be a father who creates as God created |
| Tx:28.45 | sand when it is recognized as being part of the completed picture of | God's Son! The forms the broken pieces seem to take mean nothing. For |
| Tx:28.46 | not there. Your willingness to let illusions go is all the Healer of | God's Son requires. He will place the miracle of healing where the |
| Tx:28.58 | Whoever says, “There is no gap between my mind and yours” has kept | God's promise, not his tiny oath to be forever faithful unto death. |
| Tx:28.60 | and the Son is not the will of either, who have promised to be one. | God's promise is a promise to Himself, and there is no one who could |
| Tx:28.63 | idly blamed for what it did not do. It serves to help the healing of | God's Son, and for this purpose it cannot be sick. It will not join a |
| Tx:28.66 | lies not within itself alone. It is an ark of safety, resting on | God's promise that His Son is safe forever in Himself. What gap can |
| Tx:28.66 | more in worth than the extent to which it can be used to liberate | God's Son unto his home. And with this holy purpose is it made a home |
| Tx:29.19 | As “something” is the body asked to be | God's enemy, replacing what He is with littleness and limit and |
| Tx:29.23 | There, in its place, | God's Witness has set forth the gentle way of kindness to God's Son. |
| Tx:29.23 | its place, God's Witness has set forth the gentle way of kindness to | God's Son. Whom you forgive is given power to forgive you your |
| Tx:29.33 | still abides in him, as it abides in you. Be very still and hear | God's Voice in him and let It tell you what his function is. He was |
| Tx:29.33 | that you might be whole, for only the complete can be a part of | God's completion, Which created you. |
| Tx:29.35 | God did not give in minds that can direct the hand to bless and lead | God's Son unto his Father's house. Would you not want to be a friend |
| Tx:29.39 | not return. Where time has set an end is not where the eternal is. | God's Son can never change by what men made of him. He will be as he |
| Tx:29.40 | it appears to be. Think not that you can set a goal unlike | God's purpose for you and establish it as changeless and eternal. You |
| Tx:29.42 | and kill your body only if you think that it was made to crucify | God's Son. For even though it was a dream of death, you need not let |
| Tx:29.42 | see it for. How lovely is the world whose purpose is forgiveness of | God's Son! How free from fear, how filled with blessing and with |
| Tx:29.45 | Its form appears to be outside himself. Yet does he seek to kill | God's Son within and prove that he is victor over him. This is the |
| Tx:29.55 | excluded and been kept apart? What hand could be held up to block | God's way? Whose voice could make demand He enter not? The |
| Tx:29.59 | An idol is a means for getting more. And it is this that is against | God's Will. |
| Tx:29.62 | How can | God's Son awaken from the dream? It is a dream of judgment. So must |
| Tx:29.63 | and the dream from which they come. Judgment is an injustice to | God's Son, and it is justice that who judges him will not escape the |
| Tx:30.41 | could it be possible it be denied. Your will to be complete is but | God's Will, and this is given you by being His. God knows not form. |
| Tx:30.42 | Completion is the function of | God's Son. He has no need to seek for it at all. Beyond all idols |
| Tx:30.43 | of you. And so there are no separate parts in what exists within | God's Mind. It is forever one, eternally united and at peace. |
| Tx:30.53 | for they are not there. Yet this is equally forgotten in attack. | God's Son needs no defense against his dreams. His idols do not |
| Tx:30.56 | illusions by his will and but restored to what he is. What could | God's plan for his salvation be, except a means to give him to |
| Tx:30.60 | The final step is | God's because it is but God Who could create a perfect Son and share |
| Tx:30.61 | The real world still falls short of this, for this is | God's own purpose—only His, and yet completely shared and perfectly |
| Tx:30.76 | could not escape all guilt, but only some of it. You must forgive | God's Son entirely. Or you will keep an image of yourself that is not |
| Tx:30.76 | so there cannot be appearances which have replaced the truth about | God's Son. |
| Tx:30.78 | God's Son is perfect, or he cannot be God's Son. Nor will you know | |
| Tx:30.78 | God's Son is perfect, or he cannot be | God's Son. Nor will you know him if you think he does not merit the |
| Tx:30.92 | all miracles has not been given freedom to bestow His gifts upon | God's Son. When he is tempted, he denies reality. And he becomes the |
| Tx:31.7 | surely from its source. The certain outcome of the lesson that | God's Son is guilty is the world you see. It is a world of terror and |
| Tx:31.7 | which reflects the love of God is stronger still. And you will learn | God's Son is innocent and see another world. |
| Tx:31.8 | The outcome of the lesson that | God's Son is guiltless is a world in which there is no fear and |
| Tx:31.8 | wanted to be part of you. The soft, eternal calling of each part of | God's creation to the whole is heard throughout the world this second |
| Tx:31.9 | indeed if he whom He created innocent could be a slave to guilt. | God's perfect Son remembers his creation. But in guilt he has |
| Tx:31.10 | of God results as surely from the lesson that His Son is guilty as | God's love must be remembered when he learns his innocence. For hate |
| Tx:31.21 | Because he is your equal in | God's love, you will be saved from all appearances and answer to the |
| Tx:31.92 | but disappear as mists before the sun. A miracle has come to heal | God's Son and close the door upon his dreams of weakness, opening the |
| Tx:31.94 | world and find so many chances to perceive another situation where | God's gift can once again be recognized as ours! And thus will all |
| W1:35.9 | But my mind is part of | God's. I am very holy. |
| W1:36.1 | to the perceived. You are holy because your mind is part of | God's. And because you are holy, your sight must be holy as well. |
| W1:36.1 | sin a little. You are sinless or not. If your mind is part of | God's, you must be sinless or a part of His Mind would be sinful. |
| W1:42.6 | God's gifts to me must be mine because He gave them to me. | |
| W1:43.2 | no meaning. Yet does the Holy Spirit give it a meaning very close to | God's. Healed perception becomes the means by which the Son of God |
| W1:43.9 | The world can show me myself. I see my own thoughts, which are like | God's. |
| W1:49.1 | It is quite possible to listen to | God's Voice all through the day without interrupting your regular |
| W1:49.2 | of your mind where stillness and peace reign forever. Try to hear | God's Voice call to you lovingly, reminding you that your Creator has |
| W1:49.5 | closing your eyes on the world and realizing that you are inviting | God's Voice to speak to you. |
| W1:52.2 | them reality and thus regard reality as an illusion. Nothing in | God's creation is affected in any way by this confusion of mine. I am |
| W1:53.6 | my real thoughts to cast their beneficent light on what I see. Yet | God's way is sure. The images I have made cannot prevail against Him |
| W1:57.4 | thoughts are the opposite of truth. I see the world as a prison for | God's Son. It must be, then, that the world is really a place where |
| W1:57.6 | [35] My mind is part of | God's. I am very holy. As I share the peace of the world with my |
| W1:60.2 | by which I will recognize my innocence. It is the reflection of | God's Love on earth. It will bring me near enough to Heaven that the |
| W1:60.5 | [49] | God's Voice speaks to me all through the day. There is not a moment |
| W1:60.5 | speaks to me all through the day. There is not a moment in which | God's Voice ceases to call on my forgiveness to save me. There is not |
| W1:60.5 | steadily on toward truth. There is nowhere else I can go, because | God's Voice is the only voice and the only guide that has been given |
| W1:60.6 | [50] I am sustained by the Love of God. As I listen to | God's Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I open my eyes, His love |
| W1:61.1 | Who is the light of the world except | God's Son? This, then, is merely a statement of the truth about |
| W1:61.3 | True humility requires that you accept today's idea because it is | God's Voice Which tells you it is true. This is a beginning step in |
| W1:63.6 | Remember that | God's Son looks to you for his salvation. And who but your Self must |
| W1:64.8 | Let me not forget my function. Let me not try to substitute mine for | God's. Let me forgive and be happy. |
| W1:69.2 | We are trying to let the veil be lifted and see the tears of | God's Son disappear in the sunlight. |
| W1:69.8 | your mind. Try to remember that you are at last joining your will to | God's. Try to keep the thought clearly in mind that what you |
| W1:70.5 | Your purpose was to ensure that healing did not occur; | God's purpose was to ensure that it did. Today we practice realizing |
| W1:70.5 | purpose was to ensure that it did. Today we practice realizing that | God's Will and ours are really the same in this. |
| W1:71.1 | that the ego has set up a plan for salvation in opposition to | God's. It is this plan in which you believe. Since it is the opposite |
| W1:71.1 | It is this plan in which you believe. Since it is the opposite of | God's, you also believe that to accept God's plan in place of the |
| W1:71.1 | Since it is the opposite of God's, you also believe that to accept | God's plan in place of the ego's is to be damned. This sounds |
| W1:71.6 | God's plan for salvation works simply because, by following His | |
| W1:71.7 | escape all this? Very simply. The idea for today is the answer. Only | God's plan for salvation will work. There can be no real conflict |
| W1:71.7 | conflict about this, because there is no possible alternative to | God's plan that will save you. His is the only plan that is certain |
| W1:71.9 | it contains two parts, each making equal contribution to the whole. | God's plan for your salvation will work, and other plans will not. Do |
| W1:71.9 | to free yourself. They have led to depression and anger. But | God's plan will succeed. It will lead to release and joy. |
| W1:71.12 | willingness to listen. This is enough to establish your claim to | God's answer. |
| W1:71.13 | In the shorter practice periods tell yourself often that | God's plan for salvation, and only His, will work. Be alert to all |
| W1:71.14 | Holding grievances is the opposite of | God's plan for salvation. And only His plan will work. |
| W1:72.1 | have recognized that the ego's plan for salvation is the opposite of | God's, we have not yet emphasized that it is an active attack on His |
| W1:72.3 | it is perhaps not so apparent why holding grievances is an attack on | God's plan for salvation. But let us consider the kinds of things |
| W1:72.8 | stands at the center of your concept of yourself, you are attacking | God's plan for salvation and holding your grievances against Him and |
| W1:72.10 | To see our Self as separate from the body is to end the attack on | God's plan for salvation and to accept it instead. And wherever His |
| W1:72.11 | Our goal in the longer practice periods today is to become aware that | God's plan for salvation has already been accomplished in us. To |
| W1:72.11 | with acceptance. As long as we attack it, we cannot understand what | God's plan for us is. We are therefore attacking what we do not |
| W1:72.11 | Now we are going to try to lay judgment aside and ask what | God's plan for us is: |
| W1:72.14 | We have attacked | God's plan for salvation without waiting to hear what it is. We have |
| W1:72.19 | Holding grievances is an attack on | God's plan for salvation. Let me accept it instead. What is |
| W1:73.8 | remember that you will salvation for yourself. You will to accept | God's plan because you share in it. You have no will that can really |
| W1:73.10 | We will begin our longer practice periods with the recognition that | God's plan for salvation, and only His, is wholly in accord with your |
| W1:73.13 | I will there be light. Let me behold the light that reflects | God's Will and mine. |
| W1:74.1 | as the central thought toward which all our exercises are directed. | God's is the only will. When you have recognized this, you have |
| W1:74.4 | There is no will but | God's. I cannot be in conflict. |
| W1:74.6 | I am at peace. Nothing can disturb me. My will is | God's My will and God's are one. God wills peace for His Son. |
| W1:74.6 | I am at peace. Nothing can disturb me. My will is God's My will and | God's are one. God wills peace for His Son. |
| W1:74.8 | There is no will but | God's. These conflict thoughts are meaningless. |
| W1:74.10 | There is no will but | God's. I share it with Him. My conflicts about _____ cannot be real. |
| W1:74.14 | There is no will but | God's. I seek His peace today. |
| W1:76.9 | Perhaps you even think that there are laws which set forth what is | God's and what is yours. Many “religions” have been based on this. |
| W1:76.10 | There are no laws but | God's. Dismiss all foolish magical beliefs today and hold your mind |
| W1:76.10 | there are no substitutes, and nothing is replaced by something else. | God's laws forever give and never take. |
| W1:76.12 | Let us today open | God's channels to Him and let His Will extend through us to Him. Thus |
| W1:76.12 | idea until we have listened and understood there are no laws but | God's. Then we will tell ourselves as a dedication with which the |
| W1:76.13 | I am under no laws but | God's. |
| W1:78.4 | Today we will attempt to see | God's Son. We will not let ourselves be blind to him; we will not |
| W1:78.6 | has crossed your mind already. He will be the one of whom we ask | God's Son be shown to us. Through seeing him behind the grievances |
| W1:78.10 | The Holy Spirit leans from him to you, seeing no separation in | God's Son. And what you see through Him will free you both. |
| W1:78.12 | this throughout the day and take the role assigned to us as part of | God's salvation plan, and not our own. Temptation falls away when we |
| W1:80.1 | Accept that fact, and you are ready to take your rightful place in | God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:80.2 | your only problem, opening the way for the Holy Spirit to give you | God's answer. You have laid deception aside and seen the light of |
| W1:80.4 | answer have been brought together. The problem must be gone because | God's answer cannot fail. Having recognized one, you have recognized |
| W1:86.2 | [71] Only | God's plan for salvation will work. It is senseless for me to search |
| W1:86.2 | about what it is. I will undertake no more idle seeking. Only | God's plan for salvation will work. And I will rejoice because His |
| W1:86.4 | God's plan for salvation will save me from my perception of this. | |
| W1:86.4 | will save me from my perception of this. This is no exception in | God's plan for my salvation. Let me perceive this only in the light |
| W1:86.4 | plan for my salvation. Let me perceive this only in the light of | God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:86.5 | [72] Holding grievances is an attack on | God's plan for salvation. Holding grievances is an attempt to prove |
| W1:86.5 | plan for salvation. Holding grievances is an attempt to prove that | God's plan for salvation will not work. Yet only His plan will work. |
| W1:86.5 | defeat my own best interests in this insane way. I would accept | God's plan for salvation and be happy. |
| W1:87.5 | [74] There is no will but | God's. I am safe today because there is no will but God's. I can |
| W1:87.5 | is no will but God's. I am safe today because there is no will but | God's. I can become afraid only when I believe that there is another |
| W1:87.5 | all this has not occurred. I am safe because there is no will but | God's. |
| W1:87.7 | Let me perceive this in accordance with the Will of God. It is | God's Will you are His Son, [name], and mine as well. This is part of |
| W1:87.7 | Will you are His Son, [name], and mine as well. This is part of | God's Will for me, however I may see it. |
| W1:88.5 | [76] I am under no laws but | God's. Here is the perfect statement of my freedom. I am under no |
| W1:88.5 | Here is the perfect statement of my freedom. I am under no laws but | God's. I am constantly tempted to make up other laws and give them |
| W1:88.5 | on me at all. I am perfectly free of the effects of all laws save | God's. And His are the laws of freedom. |
| W1:88.7 | not exist. I see only the laws of God at work in this. Let me allow | God's laws to work in this and not my own. |
| W1:89.2 | miracles. I am entitled to miracles because I am under no laws but | God's. His laws release me from all grievances and replace them with |
| W1:89.5 | to have all my illusions be replaced with truth according to | God's plan for my salvation. I would make no exceptions and no |
| W1:92.3 | It is | God's strength in you that is the light in which you see, as it is |
| W1:93.3 | idle thoughts are meaningless. These thoughts are not according to | God's Will. These weird beliefs He does not share with you. This is |
| W1:95.1 | changed yourself already. You see yourself as a ridiculous parody on | God's creation—weak, vicious, ugly and sinful, miserable and beset |
| W1:95.16 | are One Self, united and secure in light and joy and peace. You are | God's Son, One Self with one Creator and one goal—to bring |
| W1:96.7 | that does not exist. Perhaps you hope it can. Yet would you have | God's plan for the release of His dear Son bring pain to him and fail |
| W1:98.9 | I will accept my part in | God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:99.11 | spots and shine through them to join them to the rest. It is | God's Will your mind be one with His. It is God's Will that He has |
| W1:99.11 | them to the rest. It is God's Will your mind be one with His. It is | God's Will that He has but one Son. It is God's Will that His one Son |
| W1:99.11 | be one with His. It is God's Will that He has but one Son. It is | God's Will that His one Son is you. |
| W1:99.18 | the times you give five minutes to be shared with Him Who shares | God's plan with you. Remind yourself: |
| W1:100.1 | Just as | God's Son completes his Father, so your part in it completes your |
| W1:100.2 | God's Will for you is perfect happiness. Why should you choose to go | |
| W1:100.3 | You are indeed essential to | God's plan. Without your joy, His joy is incomplete. Without your |
| W1:100.4 | You are indeed essential to | God's plan. Just as your light increases every light that shines in |
| W1:100.4 | all minds to let their sorrows go and take their place beside you in | God's plan. God's messengers are joyous, and their joy heals sorrow |
| W1:100.4 | let their sorrows go and take their place beside you in God's plan. | God's messengers are joyous, and their joy heals sorrow and despair. |
| W1:100.5 | today. For if we do, we fail to take the part that is essential to | God's plan as well as to our vision. Sadness is the sign that you |
| W1:100.7 | You are | God's messenger today. You bring His happiness to all you look upon, |
| W1:100.8 | this is asked of you or anyone who wants to take his place among | God's messengers. Think what this means. You have indeed been wrong |
| W1:100.8 | in your belief that sacrifice is asked. You but receive according to | God's plan and never lose or sacrifice or die. |
| W1:100.9 | Now let us try to find that joy which proves to us and all the world | God's Will for us. It is your function that you find it here and that |
| W1:100.11 | is Him you answer every time you tell yourself you are essential to | God's plan for the salvation of the world. |
| W1:101.1 | Yet you must think it so while you believe that sin is real and that | God's Son can sin. If sin is real, then punishment is just and cannot |
| W1:101.5 | which cherishes no lingering belief that you have made a devil of | God's Son. |
| W1:101.6 | as often as we can today because it is the basis for today's idea. | God's Will for you is perfect happiness because there is no sin, and |
| W1:101.8 | God's Will for me is perfect happiness. There is no sin; it has no | |
| W1:101.11 | God's Will for me is perfect happiness. This is the truth because | |
| W1:102.3 | periods to exercises planned to help you reach the happiness | God's Will has placed in you. Here is your home, and here your safety |
| W1:102.4 | Begin the longer practice periods today with this acceptance of | God's Will for you: |
| W1:102.5 | I share | God's Will for happiness for me, and I accept it as my function now. |
| W1:102.6 | fail to find it when you learn it is your choice and that you share | God's Will. |
| W1:102.7 | function here is happiness. You have no need to be less loving to | God's Son than He Whose Love created him as loving as Himself. |
| W1:102.7 | as your one function. And be sure that you are joining with | God's Will in doing this. |
| W1:104.2 | and self-made gifts which we have placed upon the holy altar where | God's gifts belong. These are the gifts which are our own in truth. |
| W1:104.9 | I seek but what belongs to me in truth. | God's gifts of joy and peace are all I want. |
| W1:105.1 | God's peace and joy are yours. Today we will accept them, knowing | |
| W1:105.4 | Accept | God's peace and joy, and you will learn a different way of looking at |
| W1:105.4 | and joy, and you will learn a different way of looking at a gift. | God's gifts will never lessen when they are given away. They but |
| W1:105.4 | thereby. As Heaven's peace and joy intensify when you accept them as | God's gift to you, so does the joy of your Creator grow when you |
| W1:105.6 | Today accept | God's peace and joy as yours. Let Him complete Himself as He defines |
| W1:105.8 | My brother, peace and joy I offer you, that I may have | God's peace and joy as mine. |
| W1:105.9 | Thus you prepare yourself to recognize | God's gifts to you and let your mind be free of all that would |
| W1:105.12 | with what He wills. And if a brother seems to tempt you to deny | God's gift to him, see it as but another chance to let yourself |
| W1:105.13 | My brother, peace and joy I offer you, that I may have | God's peace and joy as mine. |
| W1:106.4 | Today the promise of | God's Word is kept. Hear and be silent. He would speak to you. He |
| W1:106.5 | you. He needs your voice to speak to them, for who could reach | God's Son except his Father calling through your Self? |
| W1:R3.12 | it with you in the business of the day and make it holy, worthy of | God's Son, acceptable to God and to your Self. |
| W1:113.3 | my One Self, Whose knowledge still remains Within my mind, I see | God's perfect plan For my salvation perfectly fulfilled. |
| W1:114.3 | [98] I will accept my part in | God's plan for salvation. What can my function be but to accept the |
| W1:114.7 | I will accept my part in | God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:115.3 | [100] My part is essential to | God's plan for salvation. I am essential to the plan of God for the |
| W1:115.7 | My part is essential to | God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:116.2 | [101] | God's Will for me is perfect happiness. God's Will is perfect |
| W1:116.2 | [101] God's Will for me is perfect happiness. | God's Will is perfect happiness for me. And I can suffer but from the |
| W1:116.3 | [102] I share | God's Will for happiness for me. I share my Father's Will for me, His |
| W1:116.5 | God's Will for me is perfect happiness. | |
| W1:116.7 | I share | God's Will for happiness for me. |
| W1:118.2 | [105] | God's peace and joy are mine. Today I will accept God's peace and joy |
| W1:118.2 | [105] God's peace and joy are mine. Today I will accept | God's peace and joy in glad exchange for all the substitutes which I |
| W1:118.3 | and let me hear the mighty Voice of truth itself assure me that I am | God's perfect Son. |
| W1:118.5 | God's peace and joy are mine. | |
| W1:119.2 | my mind. I am mistaken when I think I can be hurt in any way. I am | God's Son whose Self rests safely in the Mind of God. |
| W1:120.3 | [110] I am as God created me. I am | God's Son. Today I lay aside all sick illusions of myself and let my |
| W1:122.5 | answer! Seek for it no more. You will not find another one instead. | God's plan for your salvation cannot change, nor can it fail. Be |
| W1:124.8 | no rules nor special words to guide your meditation. We will trust | God's Voice to speak as He sees fit today, certain He will not fail. |
| W1:125.2 | This world will change through you. No other means can save it, for | God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is free to save himself, |
| W1:125.2 | him surely to his Father's house by his own will, forever free as | God's. He is not led by force, but only love. He is not judged, but |
| W1:125.3 | In stillness we will hear | God's Voice today without intrusion of our petty thoughts, without |
| W1:127.3 | mind that thinks of it as partial or in part. There is no love but | God's, and all of love is His. There is no other principle which |
| W1:127.10 | they all made free along with us. Now are they all our brothers in | God's Love. |
| W1:127.12 | you. For I would learn the joyous lesson that there is no love but | God's and yours and mine and everyone's. |
| W1:130.10 | seeing that your eyes alone have ever seen before. And you will know | God's strength upheld as you made this choice. |
| W1:131.5 | want. No one can fail to want this goal and reach it in the end. | God's Son cannot seek vainly, though he try to force delay, deceive |
| W1:131.9 | his home forever? Let us not try longer to impose an alien will upon | God's single purpose. He is here because He wills to be, and what He |
| W1:132.12 | cannot be at all. If you are real, the world you see is false, for | God's creation is unlike the world in every way. And as it was His |
| W1:134.2 | is false. It is irrelevant to everything except illusions. Truth is | God's creation, and to pardon this is meaningless. All truth belongs |
| W1:136.10 | powerful than everlasting life, Heaven more frail than hell, and | God's design for the salvation of His Son opposed by a decision |
| W1:137.3 | as he sees the body has no power to attack the universal oneness of | God's Son. |
| W1:137.12 | Would you not offer shelter to | God's Will? You but invite your Self to be at home, and can this |
| W1:137.15 | with the world, that sickness may be banished from the mind of | God's one Son, Who is my only Self. |
| W1:138.2 | relinquishment of hell. It is not really thus. Yet what is true in | God's creation cannot enter here unless it is reflected in some form |
| W1:139.9 | of them. This does Atonement teach and demonstrates the oneness of | God's Son is unassailed by his belief he knows not what he is. Today |
| W1:143.1 | [125] In quiet I receive | God's Word today. |
| W1:144.1 | [127] There is no love but | God's. |
| W1:151.7 | He passes by such idle witnesses, which merely bear false witness to | God's Son. He recognizes only what God loves, and in the holy light |
| W1:151.12 | in everything and hear in everything no sound except the echo of | God's Voice. |
| W1:151.15 | one can fail to listen when you hear the Voice for God give honor to | God's Son. And everyone will share the thoughts with you which He has |
| W1:152.9 | its changelessness, and its eternal wholeness—all-encompassing, | God's perfect gift to His beloved Son. |
| W1:152.11 | To recognize | God's Son implies as well that all self-concepts have been laid aside |
| W1:152.11 | Their arrogance has been perceived. And in humility the radiance of | God's Son, his gentleness, his perfect sinlessness, his Father's |
| W1:152.15 | the day began, concluding it with this same invitation to your Self. | God's Voice will answer, for He speaks for you and for your Father. |
| W1:152.15 | all your frantic thoughts, the truth of God for self-deceptions, and | God's Son for your illusions of yourself. |
| W1:153.10 | is your purpose, how secure you rest, untouchable within its light. | God's ministers have chosen that the truth be with them. Who is |
| W1:153.11 | It is the function of | God's ministers to help their brothers choose as they have done. God |
| W1:153.14 | a vengeance he cannot escape, were but his own deluded fantasy. | God's ministers have come to waken him from the dark dreams this |
| W1:153.14 | evoked in his confused, bewildered memory of this distorted tale. | God's Son can smile at last on learning that it is not true. |
| W1:154.10 | to us and for us, joining in One Voice the getting and the giving of | God's Word, the giving and receiving of His Will. |
| W1:155.10 | from you as well, with nothing left to keep the truth apart from | God's completion, holy as Himself. Step back in faith, and let truth |
| W1:155.13 | to lead you elsewhere. Dreams are not a worthy guide for you who are | God's Son. Forget not He has placed His hand in yours and given you |
| W1:159.10 | you not worth the gift when God appointed it be given you? Judge not | God's Son, but follow in the way He has established. Christ has |
| W1:161.7 | When hatred rests upon a thing, it calls for death as surely as | God's Voice proclaims there is no death. Fear is insatiable, |
| W1:163.4 | opposite of God proclaimed as lord of all creation, stronger than | God's Will for life, the endlessness of love and Heaven's perfect, |
| W1:165.6 | Abundance dwells in him, and deprivation cannot cut him off from | God's sustaining love and from his home. |
| W1:166.1 | All things are given you. | God's trust in you is limitless. He knows His Son. He gives without |
| W1:166.3 | who holds such strange beliefs. He must believe that, to accept | God's gifts, however evident they may become, however urgently he may |
| W1:166.5 | Yet in his lonely, senseless wanderings, | God's gifts go with him, all unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But |
| W1:166.9 | miserable self you thought was you may not be your identity. Perhaps | God's Word is truer than your own. Perhaps His gifts to you are real. |
| W1:166.10 | God's Will does not oppose. It merely is. It is not God you have | |
| W1:166.13 | that comes to those who feel the touch of Christ and recognize | God's gifts. Let sorrow not tempt you to be unfaithful to your trust. |
| W1:166.14 | touch; your change of mind becomes the proof that who accepts | God's gifts can never suffer anything. You are entrusted with the |
| W1:169.3 | open mind can hear the call to waken. It is not shut tight against | God's Voice. It has become aware that there are things it does not |
| W1:169.6 | all. It comes to every mind when total recognition that its will is | God's has been completely given and received completely. It returns |
| W1:R5.8 | mind the way that led him out and now will lead you out with him. | God's Son is crucified until you walk along the road with me. |
| W1:183.1 | God's Name is holy, but no holier than yours. To call upon His Name | |
| W1:183.2 | God's Name cannot be heard without response, nor said without an echo | |
| W1:183.3 | Repeat | God's Name and all the world responds by laying down illusions. Every |
| W1:183.4 | No temptation but becomes a nameless and unwanted thing before | God's Name. Repeat His Name and see how easily you will forget the |
| W1:183.6 | should you join a brother as you sit with him in silence and repeat | God's Name along with him within your quiet minds, you have |
| W1:183.6 | to God Himself and to His Son. Practice but this today; repeat | God's Name slowly again and still again. Become oblivious to every |
| W1:183.7 | except at the beginning, when we say today's idea but once. And then | God's Name becomes our only thought, our only word, the only thing |
| W1:183.9 | this one. And to all other thoughts respond with this, and see | God's Name replace the thousand little names you gave your thoughts, |
| W1:183.11 | within it. words are insignificant and all requests unneeded when | God's Son calls on his Father's Name. His Father's Thoughts become |
| W1:184.14 | And though we use a different name for each awareness of an aspect of | God's Son, we understand that they have but One Name, Which He has |
| W1:185.9 | that it is otherwise. No compromise is possible in this. You choose | God's peace, or you have asked for dreams. And dreams will come as |
| W1:185.9 | for dreams. And dreams will come as you requested them. Yet will | God's peace come just as certainly and to remain with you forever. It |
| W1:185.11 | asks that he deceive himself no longer by denying to himself what is | God's Will. Who can remain unsatisfied who asks for what he has |
| W1:186.4 | All false humility we lay aside today that we may listen to | God's Voice reveal to us what He would have us do. We do not doubt |
| W1:186.5 | the plan you did not make instead. Judge not your value to it. If | God's Voice assures you that salvation needs your part and that the |
| W1:186.11 | one goal, and one you can attain. Your plan may be impossible, but | God's can never fail because He is its Source. |
| W1:188.7 | God's peace is shining on them, but they must remain with you as | |
| W1:188.7 | as well, for they were born within your mind as yours was born in | God's. They lead you back to peace from where they came but to remind |
| W1:189.4 | world of hatred equally unseen and inconceivable to those who feel | God's Love in them. Their world reflects the quietness and peace that |
| W1:191.10 | of his forgiveness. Who could see the world as dark and sinful when | God's Son has come again at last to set it free? |
| W1:192.2 | Forgiveness represents your function here. It is not | God's creation, for it is the means by which untruth can be undone. |
| W1:194.4 | in time. You are but asked to let the future go and place it in | God's hands. And you will see by your experience that you have laid |
| W1:194.5 | into a holy instant when the light that was kept hidden in | God's Son is freed to bless the world. Now is he free, and all his |
| W1:194.9 | Now are we saved indeed. For in | God's hands we rest untroubled, sure that only good can come to us. |
| W1:197.1 | be received with honor, lest they be withdrawn. And so you think | God's gifts are loans at best; at worst, deceptions which would cheat |
| W1:198.7 | as justified. Yet all are one—a place where death is offered to | God's Son and to his Father. You may think They have accepted, but if |
| W1:198.12 | Accept the one illusion which proclaims there is no condemnation in | God's Son, and Heaven is remembered instantly; the world forgotten, |
| W1:199.4 | extended to the all-inclusive goal that it must reach according to | God's plan. |
| W1:199.8 | You are | God's Son. In immortality you live forever. Would you not return your |
| W1:199.8 | stand released with you in it; the world is blessed along with you; | God's Son will weep no more, and Heaven offers thanks for the |
| W1:200.6 | and where it must serve a mighty function. Is not the escape of | God's beloved Son from evil dreams that he imagines, yet believes are |
| W1:200.7 | God because He has one Son, who cannot make a world in opposition to | God's Will and to his own, which is the same as His. What could he |
| W1:203.1 | [183] I call upon | God's Name and on my own. The Name of God is my deliverance from |
| W1:204.1 | [184] The Name of God is my inheritance. | God's Name reminds me that I am His Son, not slave to time, unbound |
| W1:207.1 | [187] I bless the world because I bless myself. | God's blessing shines upon me from within my heart where He abides. I |
| W1:211.1 | the holy Son of God Himself. In silence and in true humility, I seek | God's glory to behold it in the Son whom He created as my Self. I am |
| W1:219.1 | [199] I am not a body. I am free. I am | God's Son. Be still, my mind, and think a moment upon this. And then |
| W2:I.9 | A moment more, and it will rise again. A moment more, and we who are | God's Sons are safely home, where He would have us be. |
| W2:I.10 | but be still and let all things be healed. We will accept the way | God's plan will end, as we received the way it started. Now it is |
| W2:WF.1 | are all your sins forgiven. What is sin except a false idea about | God's Son? Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and therefore lets it |
| W2:223.1 | unattached, and housed within a body. Now I know my life is | God's. I have no other home, and I do not exist apart from Him. He |
| W2:WS.1 | and all the thoughts that have been born in time will end as well. | God's Word is given every mind which thinks that it has separate |
| W2:WS.2 | The thought of peace was given to | God's Son the instant that his mind had thought of war. There was no |
| W2:WS.5 | the world that freedom is returned, that time is almost over, and | God's Son has but an instant more to wait until his Father is |
| W2:246.1 | the way to God if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not try to hurt | God's Son and think that I can know his Father or my Self. Let me not |
| W2:WIS.3 | They are the “proof” that what has no reality is real. Sin “proves” | God's Son is evil; timelessness must have an end; eternal life must |
| W2:255.1 | Son is like Himself. Let me this day have faith in Him Who says I am | God's Son. And let the peace I choose be mine today bear witness to |
| W2:255.1 | I choose be mine today bear witness to the truth of what He says. | God's Son can have no cares and must remain forever in the peace of |
| W2:258.1 | which offer nothing and do not exist. Shall we continue to allow | God's grace to shine in unawareness while the toys and trinkets of |
| W2:259.1 | suffering? And what but this could be the source of fear, obscuring | God's creation, giving love the attributes of fear and of attack? |
| W2:WIB.2 | will not stay. Yet this he sees as double “safety.” For the Son of | God's impermanence is “proof” his fences work and do the task his |
| W2:WIB.2 | Who the murderer? And if he did not die, what “proof” is there that | God's eternal Son can be destroyed? |
| W2:WIB.4 | The body is the means by which | God's Son returns to sanity. Though it was made to fence him into |
| W2:265.1 | light of Heaven, shining on the world. What is reflected here is in | God's Mind. The images I see reflect my thoughts. Yet is my mind at |
| W2:265.1 | The images I see reflect my thoughts. Yet is my mind at one with | God's. And so I can perceive creation's gentleness. |
| W2:266.2 | This day we enter into paradise, calling upon | God's name and on our own, acknowledging our Self in each of us, |
| W2:WIC.1 | Christ is | God's Son as He created Him. He is the Self we share, uniting us with |
| W2:WIC.2 | Your mind is part of His and His of yours. He is the part in which | God's Answer lies, where all decisions are already made and dreams |
| W2:271.1 | I choose to look upon what Christ would have me see, to listen to | God's Voice, and seek the witnesses to what is true in God's |
| W2:271.1 | to listen to God's Voice, and seek the witnesses to what is true in | God's creation. In Christ's sight, the world and God's creation meet, |
| W2:271.1 | to what is true in God's creation. In Christ's sight, the world and | God's creation meet, and as they come together, all perception |
| W2:272.1 | by Your Love, forever still, forever gentle, and forever safe. | God's Son must be as You created him. |
| W2:277.2 | free, because he is his Father's Son. And he cannot be bound unless | God's Truth can lie and God can will that He deceive Himself. |
| W2:279.1 | The end of dreams is promised me because | God's Son is not abandoned by His Love. Only in dreams is there a |
| W2:WIHS.5 | Spirit is His gift by Which the quietness of Heaven is restored to | God's beloved Son. Would you refuse to take the function of |
| W2:290.1 | Christ's vision come to me this very day. What I perceive without | God's own correction for the sight I made is frightening and painful |
| W2:WIRW.4 | real world is the symbol that the dream of sin and guilt is over and | God's Son no longer sleeps. His waking eyes perceive the sure |
| W2:292.1 | God's promises make no exceptions. And He guarantees that only joy | |
| W2:292.1 | and every situation that we meet. Yet is the ending certain. For | God's Will is done in earth and Heaven. We will seek and we will find |
| W2:294.1 | as well? Did God create the mortal and corruptible? What use has | God's beloved Son for what must die? And yet a neutral thing does not |
| W2:WISC.1 | what is forever and forever true. It is the invitation to | God's Word to take illusion's place, the willingness to let |
| W2:WISC.2 | you. There is no end to the release the Second Coming brings, as | God's creation must be limitless. Forgiveness lights the Second |
| W2:WISC.5 | most of all it needs your willingness. Let us rejoice that we can do | God's Will and join together in its holy light. Behold, the Son of |
| W2:301.2 | God's world is happy. Those who look on it can only add their joy to | |
| W2:301.2 | we have learned the world we saw was false, and we will look upon | God's world today. |
| W2:303.1 | Watch with me, angels; watch with me today. Let all | God's holy thoughts surround me and be still with me while Heaven's |
| W2:307.2 | state where conflict cannot come because we join our holy will with | God's in recognition that they are but one. |
| W2:309.1 | Within me is eternal innocence because it is | God's Will that it be there forever and forever. I, His Son, whose |
| W2:WILJ.3 | You who believed that | God's Last Judgment would condemn the world to hell along with you, |
| W2:WILJ.3 | condemn the world to hell along with you, accept this holy truth: | God's Judgment is the gift of the correction He bestowed on all your |
| W2:WILJ.3 | you from them and all effects they ever seemed to have. To fear | God's saving grace is but to fear complete release from suffering, |
| W2:WILJ.4 | God's Final Judgment is as merciful as every step in His appointed | |
| W2:WILJ.5 | This is | God's Final Judgment: “You are still My holy Son, forever innocent, |
| W2:311.1 | made against yourself and re-establish peace of mind by giving you | God's Judgment of His Son. |
| W2:318.1 | In me, | God's holy Son, are reconciled all parts of Heaven's plan to save the |
| W2:318.1 | of more or less importance than the rest? I am the means by which | God's Son is saved because salvation's purpose is to find the |
| W2:318.1 | as the thing I seek. I am the goal the world is searching for. I am | God's Son, His one Eternal Love. I am salvation's means and end as |
| W2:WICR.1 | Creation is the sum of all | God's thoughts, in number infinite and everywhere without all limit. |
| W2:WICR.1 | anything that It created suffers any change. Forever and forever are | God's thoughts exactly as they were and as they are, unchanged |
| W2:WICR.2 | God's thoughts are given all the power that Their own Creator has. | |
| W2:WICR.4 | For Love remains with all Its thought, Its sureness being theirs. | God's memory is in our holy minds, which know their oneness and their |
| W2:WICR.4 | Let our function be only to let this memory return, only to let | God's Will be done on earth, only to be restored to sanity, and to be |
| W2:322.1 | to hide, awaiting me in shining welcome and in readiness to give | God's ancient messages to me. His memory abides in every gift that I |
| W2:322.1 | of Him. And every dream serves only to conceal the Self which is | God's only Son, the likeness of Himself, the Holy One who still |
| W2:326.2 | at first transformed, and then, forgiven, fade entirely into | God's holy Will. |
| W2:328.1 | striving to be separate and that our independence from the rest of | God's creation is the way in which salvation is obtained. Yet all we |
| W2:330.1 | take what is already theirs? The mind that is made willing to accept | God's gifts has been restored to Spirit and extends its freedom and |
| W2:331.2 | Forgiveness shows us that | God's Will is one and that we share it. Let us look upon the holy |
| W2:334.1 | false perception. Let me not accept such meager gifts again today. | God's Voice is offering the peace of God to all who hear and choose |
| W2:337.1 | my Self, my sinlessness, created for me, now already mine, to feel | God's Love protecting me from harm, to understand my Father loves His |
| W2:346.2 | will learn today what peace is ours when we forget all things except | God's Love. |
| W2:348.2 | God's grace suffices us in everything that He would have us do. And | |
| W2:WAI.1 | I am | God's Son, complete and healed and whole, shining in the reflection |
| W2:E.6 | wait His answers, as we ask His Will in everything we do. He loves | God's Son as we would love him, and He teaches us how to behold him |
| W2:E.6 | him through His eyes and love him as He does. You do not walk alone. | God's angels hover close and all about. His Love surrounds you, and |
| M:I.5 | Except for | God's teachers, there would be no hope of salvation, for the world of |
| M:2.1 | Certain pupils have been assigned to each of | God's teachers, and they will begin to look for him as soon as he has |
| M:2.2 | being of Him. The instant the idea of separation entered the Mind of | God's Son, in that same instant was God's Answer given. In time this |
| M:2.2 | separation entered the Mind of God's Son, in that same instant was | God's Answer given. In time this happened very long ago. In reality |
| M:2.4 | the teacher, too, made an inevitable choice out of an ancient past. | God's Will in everything but seems to take time in the working-out. |
| M:2.5 | begins. For the teacher is not really the one who does the teaching. | God's Teacher speaks to any two who join together for learning |
| M:3.3 | to say that any level of the teaching-learning situation is part of | God's plan for Atonement, and His plan can have no levels, being a |
| M:3.3 | reflection of His Will. Salvation is always ready and always there. | God's teachers work at different levels, but the result is always the |
| M:4.1 | The surface traits of | God's teachers are not at all alike. They do not look alike to the |
| M:4.11 | All other traits of | God's teachers rest on trust. Once that has been achieved, the others |
| M:4.12 | to a teacher of God. Challenge implies doubt, and the trust on which | God's teachers rest secure makes doubt impossible. Therefore they can |
| M:4.13 | God's teachers do not judge. To judge is to be dishonest, for to | |
| M:4.13 | a lack of trust, and trust remains the bed-rock of the teacher of | God's whole thought system. Let this be lost, and all his learning |
| M:4.14 | Harm is impossible for | God's teachers. They can neither harm nor be harmed. Harm is the |
| M:4.14 | of peace and the denial of learning. It demonstrates the absence of | God's curriculum and its replacement by insanity. No teacher of God |
| M:4.14 | It will make the Holy Spirit's lessons impossible to learn. Nor can | God's Teacher be heard at all except by those who realize that harm |
| M:4.15 | Therefore | God's teachers are wholly gentle. They need the strength of |
| M:4.15 | all-encompassing, and limitless strength of gentleness? The might of | God's teachers lies in their gentleness, for they have understood |
| M:4.15 | for they have understood their evil thoughts came neither from | God's Son nor his Creator. Thus did they join their thoughts with Him |
| M:4.16 | be safe. Joy goes with gentleness as surely as grief attends attack. | God's teachers trust in Him. And they are sure His Teacher goes |
| M:4.16 | can come to them. They hold His gifts and follow in His way because | God's Voice directs them in all things. Joy is their song of thanks. |
| M:4.17 | God's teachers have learned how to be simple. They have no dreams | |
| M:4.18 | learned and learned very carefully. Like all the other attributes of | God's teachers, this one rests ultimately on trust, for without |
| M:4.21 | The extent of the teacher of | God's faithfulness is the measure of his advancement in the |
| M:4.21 | his trust not yet firmly established. Faithfulness is the teacher of | God's trust in the word of God to set all things right—not some but |
| M:4.22 | Faithfulness, then, combines in itself the other attributes of | God's teachers. It implies acceptance of the word of God and His |
| M:4.23 | comes with lack of judgment. As judgment shuts the mind against | God's Teacher, so open-mindedness invites Him to come in. As |
| M:4.25 | You may have noticed that the list of attributes of | God's teachers does not include those things which are the Son of |
| M:4.25 | of God's teachers does not include those things which are the Son of | God's inheritance. Terms like love, sinlessness, perfection, |
| M:4.25 | the focus properly belongs on the curriculum. It is the function of | God's teachers to bring true learning to the world. Properly speaking |
| M:5.2 | as danger. Sickness is a method, conceived in madness, for placing | God's Son on his Father's throne. God is seen as outside, fierce and |
| M:5.3 | conviction, does healing stand for? It symbolizes the defeat of | God's Son and the triumph of his Father over him. It represents the |
| M:5.9 | To them | God's teachers come to represent another choice which they had |
| M:5.9 | for the right to question what the patient has accepted is true. As | God's messengers, His teachers are the symbols of salvation. They ask |
| M:5.9 | the symbols of salvation. They ask the patient for forgiveness for | God's Son in his own name. They stand for the alternative. With God's |
| M:5.9 | for God's Son in his own name. They stand for the alternative. With | God's Word in their minds they come in benediction, not to heal the |
| M:5.10 | same purpose and therefore are not really different. They seek for | God's Voice in this brother who would so deceive himself as to |
| M:5.10 | Voice in this brother who would so deceive himself as to believe | God's Son can suffer. And they remind him that he has not made |
| M:5.10 | the union of the One will with itself. And this is the function of | God's teachers—to see no will as separate from their own, nor |
| M:5.10 | see no will as separate from their own, nor theirs as separate from | God's. |
| M:6.2 | of treasures laid up equally for the giver and the receiver of | God's gifts. Not one is lost, for they can but increase. No teacher |
| M:6.3 | It is not the function of | God's teachers to evaluate the outcome of their gifts. It is merely |
| M:6.4 | can it be lost ? How can it be ineffectual? How can it be wasted? | God's treasure house can never be empty. And if one gift were |
| M:7.4 | is impossible to doubt its result. This is the certainty that gives | God's teachers the power to be miracle workers, for they have put |
| M:7.5 | for doubt about the outcome of any problem that has been given to | God's Teacher for resolution is always self-doubt. And that |
| M:9.1 | Changes are required in the minds of | God's teachers. This may or may not involve changes in the external |
| M:9.1 | that no one is where he is by accident, and chance plays no part in | God's plan. It is most unlikely that changes in his attitudes would |
| M:9.1 | attitudes would not be the first step in the newly-made teacher of | God's training. There is however no set pattern, since training is |
| M:9.2 | The giving up of judgment, the obvious prerequisite for hearing | God's Voice, is usually a fairly slow process, not because it is |
| M:11.1 | God loves, and yet His Word assures us that He loves the world. | God's Word has promised us that peace is possible here, and what He |
| M:11.2 | death; your judgment sees but death as the inevitable end of life. | God's Word assures you that He loves the world; your judgment says it |
| M:11.4 | seem impossible. It is the world you see that is impossible. Yet has | God's Judgment on this distorted world redeemed it and made it fit to |
| M:12.1 | He is limitless. And being limitless, His Thoughts are joined with | God's forever and ever. His perception of Himself is based upon God's |
| M:12.1 | with God's forever and ever. His perception of Himself is based upon | God's Judgment, not His own. Thus does He share God's Will and bring |
| M:12.1 | is based upon God's Judgment, not His own. Thus does He share | God's Will and bring His Thoughts to still deluded minds. He is |
| M:12.2 | can no longer be feared, for the mind sees no cause for punishment. | God's teachers appear to be many, for that is the world's need. Yet |
| M:12.3 | is not understandable to the deluded. Only a very few can hear | God's Voice at all, and even they cannot communicate His messages |
| M:12.3 | that truth can come only where it is welcomed without fear. So do | God's teachers need a body, for their unity could not be recognized |
| M:12.4 | Yet what makes them | God's teachers is their recognition of the proper purpose of the |
| M:12.4 | become more and more certain that the body's function is but to let | God's Voice speak through it to human ears. And these ears will carry |
| M:12.5 | be to give the body another purpose from the one that keeps it holy. | God's Voice will tell him when he has fulfilled his role, just as It |
| M:12.6 | Oneness and sickness cannot co-exist. | God's teachers choose to look on dreams a while. It is a conscious |
| M:12.6 | for what they are? Awareness of dreaming is the real function of | God's teachers. They watch the dream figures come and go, shift and |
| M:12.6 | and beautiful. Unity alone is not a thing of dreams. And it is this | God's teachers acknowledge as behind the dream, beyond all seeing and |
| M:13.3 | wants to find. Who can escape this self-condemnation? Only through | God's Word could this be possible. For self-condemnation is a |
| M:13.4 | God's teachers can have no regret on giving up the pleasures of the | |
| M:13.6 | In one sense that is true, for you hold dear the things that crucify | God's Son. And it is the course's aim to set him free. But do not be |
| M:13.6 | they can trust. There is no other voice in all the world that echoes | God's. If you would sacrifice the truth, they stay in hell. And if |
| M:14.2 | indeed. He brings the ending of the world with Him. It is His Call | God's teachers answer, turning to Him in silence to receive His Word. |
| M:14.3 | goal indeed. But time stands still and waits on the goals of | God's teachers. Not one thought of sin will remain the instant any |
| M:14.4 | to be willing to go in its direction. He need merely trust that, if | God's Voice tells him it is a lesson he can learn, he can learn it. |
| M:14.5 | not end as it began. To turn hell into Heaven is the function of | God's teachers, for what they teach are lessons in which Heaven is |
| M:15.1 | Indeed yes! No one can escape | God's Final Judgment. Who could flee forever from the truth? But the |
| M:15.1 | proclaimed around and around the world, setting it free as | God's Final Judgment on him is received. This is the judgment in |
| M:15.4 | small and meaningless to occupy your holy minds an instant longer. | God's judgment waits for you to set you free. What can the world hold |
| M:16.8 | is a sorry substitute for true assistance. It is not good enough for | God's teacher, because it is not enough for God's Son. |
| M:16.8 | is not good enough for God's teacher, because it is not enough for | God's Son. |
| M:16.9 | is nothing more than the attempt to substitute another will for | God's. These attempts may indeed seem frightening, yet they are |
| M:16.11 | The world would gladly make it if it knew it could be made. It is | God's teachers who must teach it that it can. And so it is their |
| M:16.11 | magic, for it is only this that leads to pain. “There is no will but | God's.” His teachers know that this is so and have learned that |
| M:16.11 | training, every day and hour, and even every minute and second, must | God's teachers learn to recognize the forms of magic and perceive |
| M:17.1 | is not to attack it. If a magic thought arouses anger in any form, | God's teacher can be sure that he is strengthening his own belief in |
| M:18.2 | God's teachers’ major lesson is to learn how to react to magic | |
| M:18.2 | And now is guilt forgiven, overlooked completely in His sight and in | God's Word. |
| M:18.3 | is blotted out as this insane belief is taken as replacement for | God's Word. The body's eyes now “see”; its ears alone are thought to |
| M:18.5 | his healing is his pupil healed with him. The sole responsibility of | God's teacher is to accept the Atonement for himself. Atonement means |
| M:19.1 | making only just interpretations and laying all injustices aside. If | God's Son were fairly judged, there would be no need for salvation. |
| M:19.4 | Salvation is | God's justice. It restores to your awareness the wholeness of the |
| M:19.4 | It remains forever and forever like its Creator, being one with Him. | God's Judgment is His justice. Onto this—a judgment wholly lacking |
| M:19.5 | Pray for | God's justice, and do not confuse His mercy with your own insanity. |
| M:19.5 | Remember this. In this lies either Heaven or hell, as you elect. | God's justice points to Heaven just because it is entirely impartial. |
| M:20.2 | First, how can the peace of God be recognized? | God's peace is recognized at first by just one thing—in every way |
| M:20.3 | found? No one can fail to find it who but seeks out its conditions. | God's peace can never come where anger is, for anger must deny that |
| M:20.4 | for a moment now and think of this: is conflict what you want, or is | God's peace the better choice? Which gives you more? A tranquil mind |
| M:20.6 | stars and all the thoughts of which you can conceive belong to you. | God's peace is the condition for His Will. Attain His peace, and you |
| M:21.5 | A major hindrance in this aspect of his learning is the teacher of | God's fear about the validity of what he hears. And what he hears may |
| M:21.5 | you, but offer them in confidence. They are far wiser than your own. | God's teachers have God's Word behind their symbols. And He Himself |
| M:21.5 | in confidence. They are far wiser than your own. God's teachers have | God's Word behind their symbols. And He Himself gives to the words |
| M:22.4 | healing all perception. Healing is the result of the recognition by | God's teacher of Who it is that is in need of healing. This |
| M:22.7 | then can say who can be healed of what and what must remain beyond | God's power to forgive? This is insanity indeed. It is not up to |
| M:22.7 | God's power to forgive? This is insanity indeed. It is not up to | God's teachers to set limits upon Him, because it is not up to them |
| M:22.7 | Both are equally meaningless. Yet this will not be understood until | God's teacher recognizes that they are the same mistake. Herein does |
| M:23.1 | God's gifts can rarely be received directly. Even the most advanced | |
| M:23.1 | gifts can rarely be received directly. Even the most advanced of | God's teachers will give way to temptation in this world. Would it be |
| M:23.7 | to suit the need. Jesus has come to answer yours. In him you find | God's Answer. Do you then teach with him, for he is with you; he is |
| M:24.6 | other time. No teaching that does not lead to this is of concern to | God's teachers. All beliefs will point to this if properly |
| M:26.1 | been removed. In how many is this the case? Here then is the role of | God's teachers. They too have not attained the necessary |
| M:26.3 | still in bondage and still asleep, so that by their awakening can | God's Voice be heard. |
| M:27.4 | and will attempt a thousand more. Not one can be acceptable to | God's teachers because not one could be acceptable to God. He did not |
| M:27.5 | The “reality” of death is firmly rooted in the belief that | God's Son is a body. And if God created bodies, death would indeed be |
| M:28.4 | in the light their purpose is transformed and understood. And we, | God's children, rise up from the dust and look upon our perfect |
| M:28.6 | mind remains possessed of evil dreams, the thought of hell is real. | God's teachers have the goal of wakening the minds of those asleep |
| M:28.6 | truth about the holy Son of God. He is redeemed, for he has heard | God's Word and understood its meaning. He is free because he let |
| M:28.6 | God's Word and understood its meaning. He is free because he let | God's Voice proclaim the truth. And all he sought before to crucify |

| W1:67.5 | After you have | gone over several such related thoughts, try to let all thoughts drop |
| W1:74.1 | that your will is His. The belief that conflict is possible has | gone. Peace has replaced the strange idea that you are torn by |
| W1:80.4 | and the answer have been brought together. The problem must be | gone because God's answer cannot fail. Having recognized one, you |
| W1:88.2 | it has no alternative. It has replaced the darkness, and the dark is | gone. |
| W1:96.4 | one denies the other can be real. If you are physical, your mind is | gone from your self-concept, for it has no place in which it could be |

| W1:107.8 | not meant to suffer and to die. Your Father wills these dreams be | gone. Let truth correct them all. We do not ask for what we do not |
| W1:124.6 | but has the power to heal all forms of suffering in anyone in times | gone by and times as yet to come, as easily as in the ones who walk |
| W1:133.1 | Sometimes in teaching there is benefit, particularly after you have | gone through what seems theoretical and far from what the student has |
| W1:140.3 | the mind. They lead from sleep to gentle waking, so that dreams are | gone. And thus they cure for all eternity. |
| W1:140.4 | the sickness possible. And that is cure indeed. For sickness now is | gone, with nothing left to which it can return. |
| W1:151.14 | deceived by what was falsely added. All the threads of fantasy are | gone, and what remains is unified into a perfect thought that offers |
| W1:153.12 | toys with joyous games which teach them that the game of fear is | gone. His game instructs in happiness because there is no loser. |
| W1:153.17 | to come, while thanking Him for all the gifts He gave us in the one | gone by. |
| W1:154.1 | Let us today be neither arrogant nor falsely humble. We have | gone beyond such foolishness. We cannot judge ourselves, nor need we |
| W1:155.10 | and you. And all illusions walking in the way you traveled will be | gone from you as well, with nothing left to keep the truth apart from |
| W1:156.6 | of sin in punishment and death. In lightness and in laughter is it | gone, because its quaint absurdity is seen. It is a foolish thought, |
| W1:156.7 | wasted many, many years on just this foolish thought. The past is | gone with all its fantasies. They keep you bound no longer. The |

| W1:169.2 | world of seeming hate and fear. By grace alone the hate and fear are | gone, for grace presents a state so opposite to everything the world |
| W1:181.4 | lose your way again. How could this matter? For the past is | gone, the future but imagined. These concerns are but defenses |
| W1:183.3 | laying down illusions. Every dream the world holds dear has suddenly | gone by, and where it seemed to stand you find a star; a miracle of |
| W1:185.9 | just as certainly and to remain with you forever. It will not be | gone with every twist and turning of the road to reappear |
| W1:187.10 | Now are we one in thought, for fear has | gone. And here, before the altar to one God, one Father, one Creator |
| W1:191.4 | thought is everything set free. In this one truth are all illusions | gone. In this one fact is sinlessness proclaimed to be forever part |
| W1:192.4 | is overcome because it holds no fierce attraction now, and guilt is | gone. |
| W1:192.6 | can persuade the Son to look again upon his holiness. With anger | gone, you will indeed perceive that for Christ's vision and the gift |
| W1:193.4 | enters, and returns the hate to love, so that the fear is | gone. And now guilt cannot enter, for its source has been excluded as |
| W1:193.15 | we would arise in haste and go unto our Father's house. We have been | gone too long, and we would linger here no more. And as we practice, |
| W1:194.5 | Release the future. For the past is | gone, and what is present, freed from its bequest of grief and |
| W1:196.12 | go beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. When the fear of God is | gone, there are no obstacles that still remain between you and the |
| W1:214.1 | [194] I place the future in the hands of God. The past is | gone; the future is not yet. Now am I freed from both. For what God |
| W2:WS.4 | branches. Earth is being born again in new perception. Night has | gone, and we have come together in the light. |
| W2:234.1 | Today we will anticipate the time when dreams of sin and guilt are | gone and we have reached again the holy peace we never left. Merely a |
| W2:WIW.1 | world must disappear and all its errors vanish. Now its source has | gone, and its effects are gone as well. |
| W2:WIW.1 | all its errors vanish. Now its source has gone, and its effects are | gone as well. |
| W2:WIW.2 | hear falsely. Now mistakes become quite possible, for certainty has | gone. |
| W2:241.1 | release is set. The day has come when sorrows pass away and pain is | gone. The glory of salvation dawns today upon a world set free. This |
| W2:249.1 | over, loss becomes impossible, and anger makes no sense. Attack is | gone, and madness has an end. What suffering is now conceivable? What |
| W2:251.1 | all cravings end, all hopes are finally fulfilled, and dreams are | gone. Now have I everything that I could need. Now have I everything |
| W2:270.1 | function now is but Your own, and every thought except Your own is | gone. |
| W2:279.1 | a future freedom if it be at all. Yet in reality his dreams are | gone, with truth established in their place. And now is freedom his |
| W2:288.1 | are in the past along with mine. And I am saved because the past is | gone. Let me not cherish it within my heart or I will lose the way to |
| W2:289.1 | For what can be forgiven but the past, and if it is forgiven, it is | gone. |
| W2:293.1 | All fear is past because its source is | gone and all its thoughts gone with it. Love remains the only present |
| W2:293.1 | All fear is past because its source is gone and all its thoughts | gone with it. Love remains the only present state, whose Source is |
| W2:295.1 | removed from me, the dreams that seemed to settle on the world are | gone. Redemption must be one. As I am saved, the world is saved with |
| W2:300.1 | sorrow are the certain lot of all who come here. For their joys are | gone before they are possessed, or even grasped. Yet this is also the |
| W2:301.1 | And all the tears I shed will be forgotten, for their source is | gone. Father, I will not judge Your world today. |
| W2:313.1 | is a vision which beholds all things as sinless, so that fear has | gone and where it was is love invited in. And love will come wherever |
| W2:323.2 | returned to our awareness. And we are at peace again, for fear has | gone and only love remains. |
| W2:334.1 | which my Father offers me. Illusions must be vain and dreams are | gone, even while they are woven out of thoughts that rest on false |
| M:4.24 | before. And above all are all things welcoming, for threat is | gone. No clouds remain to hide the face of Christ. Now is the goal |
| M:5.7 | With this idea is pain forever | gone. But with this idea goes also all confusion about creation. Does |
| M:5.7 | disaster, and all suffering mean now? Having no purpose, they are | gone. And with them also go all the effects they seemed to cause. |
| M:10.5 | Yet it is not only this that is his benefit. His sense of care is | gone, for he has none. He has given it away, along with judgment. He |
| M:14.1 | ends the world that guilt had made, for now it has no purpose and is | gone. The father of illusions is the belief that they have a purpose; |
| M:14.1 | are no longer seen. Their uselessness is recognized, and they are | gone. How but in this way are all illusions ended? They have been |
| M:14.5 | a place of sorrow. When joy has come, the purpose of the world has | gone. The world will end in peace because it is a place of war. When |

| Tx:3.11 | and even encouraged one of his Sons to suffer because he was | good. Many ministers preach this every day. |
| Tx:3.18 | The Resurrection demonstrated that nothing can destroy truth. | Good can withstand any form of evil because light abolishes all forms |
| Tx:3.21 | that this commandment (or assignment) also applies to themselves. | Good teachers never terrorize their students. To terrorize is to |
| Tx:4.7 | A | good teacher clarifies his own ideas and strengthens them by teaching |
| Tx:4.7 | and unless they share their lessons, they will lack conviction. A | good teacher must believe in the ideas which he professes, but he |
| Tx:4.11 | to me, I will correct [them] very gently and lead you home. Every | good teacher hopes to give his students so much of his own thinking |
| Tx:4.23 | That is why you should be of | good cheer. |
| Tx:4.26 | Your own present state is a | good example of how the mind made the ego. You do have knowledge at |
| Tx:4.34 | perceptions and are so ambiguous in form and so characteristically | good and evil in nature that the most benevolent of them is not |
| Tx:4.44 | That was written in that form because it is a | good thing to use as a kind of a prayer in moments of temptation. It |
| Tx:4.69 | All things work together for | good. There are no exceptions except in the ego's judgment. Control |
| Tx:4.71 | hates the body because it does not accept the idea that the body is | good enough to be its home. Here is where the mind becomes actually |
| Tx:4.77 | The problems of squaring the circle and carrying pi to infinity are | good examples. A more recent ego attempt is particularly noteworthy. |
| Tx:4.79 | Psychologists are in a | good position to realize that the ego is capable of making and |
| Tx:5.47 | The Atonement is the guarantee of the safety of the Kingdom. Nothing | good is lost because it comes from the Holy Spirit, the Voice for |
| Tx:5.47 | from the Holy Spirit, the Voice for creation. Nothing that is not | good was ever created and therefore cannot be protected. What the ego |
| Tx:5.83 | was afraid and, as you know all too well, fear is incompatible with | good judgment. Fear distorts thinking and therefore disorders thought. |
| Tx:6.15 | was true in a very extreme case merely because it would serve as a | good teaching aid to those whose temptations to give in to anger and |
| Tx:6.34 | but does not believe in it. Coming from God, He uses everything for | good, but He does not believe in what is not true. Since the Holy |
| Tx:6.57 | Like any | good teacher, the Holy Spirit does know more than you do now, but He |
| Tx:6.71 | But if a lie is at its center, only deception proceeds from it. All | good teachers realize that only fundamental change will last, but |
| Tx:7.15 | translated for those who speak a different language. Nevertheless, a | good translator, although he must alter the form of what he |
| Tx:9.1 | it makes no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and right and | good to point out errors and “correct” them. This makes perfect sense |
| Tx:9.8 | this, and for this all learning was made. This is the Holy Spirit's | good use of an ability which you do not need, but which you have |
| Tx:9.29 | the laws of this world, but that the laws you are obeying work. “The | good is what works” is a sound, though insufficient, statement. Only |
| Tx:9.29 | is what works” is a sound, though insufficient, statement. Only the | good can work. Nothing else works at all. This course is a guide to |
| Tx:9.56 | witnesses to it? And what can be real that has no witnesses? What | good can come of it? And if no good can come of it, the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:9.56 | be real that has no witnesses? What good can come of it? And if no | good can come of it, the Holy Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot |
| Tx:9.88 | cannot be understood together. The laws of God work only for your | good, and there are no other laws beside His. Everything else is |
| Tx:10.70 | is a willingness to perceive nothing else. For if you perceive both | good and evil, you are accepting both the false and the true and |
| Tx:10.71 | The ego sees some | good but never only good. That is why its perceptions are so |
| Tx:10.71 | The ego sees some good but never only | good. That is why its perceptions are so variable. It does not reject |
| Tx:10.75 | And then everything you made will be forgotten, the | good and the bad, the false and the true. For as Heaven and earth |
| Tx:11.5 | It is surely | good advice to tell you not to judge what you do not understand. No |
| Tx:11.5 | brother's errors are “uncovered” and he is then attacked for his own | good. What can this be but projection? For his errors lay in the |
| Tx:11.47 | a special Teacher and a special curriculum. Poor learners are not | good choices for teachers, either for themselves or for anyone else. |
| Tx:11.89 | Long ago we said that the Holy Spirit shares the goal of all | good teachers, whose ultimate aim is to make themselves unnecessary |
| Tx:13.74 | All this arises because they do not believe that what they want is | good. Yet will was given them because it is holy and will bring to |
| Tx:13.81 | yourself the sole responsibility for deciding what can bring only | good to everyone? Would you know this? |
| Tx:14.29 | Defenses, like everything you made, must be gently turned to your own | good, translated by the Holy Spirit from means of self-destruction to |
| Tx:15.72 | or farther. And it is in these terms that it evaluates ideas as | good or bad. What makes another guilty and holds him through guilt is |
| Tx:17.53 | grateful to each other? Have you consistently appreciated the | good efforts and overlooked mistakes? Or has your appreciation |
| Tx:18.33 | Trust not your | good intentions. They are not enough. But trust implicitly your |
| Tx:19.31 | God must be at war with Himself. He must be split and torn between | good and evil—partly sane and partially insane. For He must have |
| Tx:21.39 | purpose to lead you from. You think He would deprive you for your | good. But “good” and “deprivation” are opposites and cannot |
| Tx:26.15 | cannot solve. But you believe that some injustices are fair and | good and necessary to preserve yourself. It is these problems that |
| Tx:26.44 | Anything in this world that you believe is | good and valuable and worth striving for can hurt you and will do so. |
| Tx:26.73 | although already there? You have been told that everything brings | good that comes from God. And yet it seems as if this is not so. Good |
| Tx:26.73 | good that comes from God. And yet it seems as if this is not so. | Good in disaster's form is difficult to credit in advance. Nor is |
| Tx:26.74 | Why should the | good appear in evil's form? And is it not deception if it does? Its |
| Tx:26.74 | the time of liberation is at hand. Given a change of purpose for the | good, there is no reason for an interval in which disaster strikes, |
| Tx:27.10 | without a purpose, it is seen as neither sick nor well, nor bad nor | good. No grounds are offered that it may be judged in any way at all. |
| Tx:27.14 | is not pity which but seeks to pardon what it knows to be the truth. | Good cannot be returned for evil, for forgiveness does not first |
| Tx:27.78 | metal discs or paper strips the world proclaims as valuable and | good. It works to get them, doing senseless things, and tosses them |
| Tx:28.47 | A gap perceived between [ourselves] and what is seen as health? The | good is seen outside; the evil, in. And thus is sickness separating |
| Tx:28.47 | the evil, in. And thus is sickness separating off the self from | good and keeping evil in. God is the alternate to dreams of fear. Who |
| Tx:31.12 | away. Be innocent of judgment, unaware of any thoughts of evil or of | good that ever crossed your mind of anyone. Now do [you] know him |
| Tx:31.44 | on the suffering and sometimes offers solace. It believes that it is | good within an evil world. |
| Tx:31.45 | the injustices the world accords to those who would be generous and | good. This aspect never makes the first attack. But every day a |
| Tx:31.64 | be gone. The veil of ignorance is drawn across the evil and the | good and must be passed that both may disappear, so that perception |
| Tx:31.69 | of evil and of guilt in him. And as you gave your trust to what is | good in him, you gave it to the good in you. |
| Tx:31.69 | as you gave your trust to what is good in him, you gave it to the | good in you. |
| Tx:31.70 | of concepts, it is thus you see him more than just a body, for the | good is never what the body seems to be. The actions of the body are |
| Tx:31.70 | “baser” part of you and thus of him as well. By focusing upon the | good in him, the body grows decreasingly persistent in your sight and |
| Tx:31.70 | length be seen as little more than just a shadow circling round the | good. And this will be your concept of yourself, when you have |

| Tx:16.61 | to a body and for limiting your perception of others to theirs. The | Great Rays would establish the total lack of value of the special |
| Tx:16.63 | as it is seen here. For the little spark which holds the | Great Rays within it is also visible, and this spark cannot be |
| Tx:16.80 | to bless everyone and to resolve all problems, be they perceived as | great or small, possible or impossible. There is nothing that will |

| Tx:19.84 | seeming love for death that peace must flow across seems to be very | great. For in it lies hidden all the ego's secrets, all its strange |
| Tx:19.92 | your promise never to allow union to call you out of separation; the | great amnesia in which the memory of God seems quite forgotten; the |
| Tx:20.8 | I have | great need for lilies, for the Son of God has not forgiven me. And |

| Tx:21.73 | runs, it turns against itself, thinking it caught a glimpse of the | great enemy which always eludes its murderous attack by turning into |
| Tx:21.90 | God's appeal to you to recognize what He has given you? Here is the | great appeal to reason; the awareness of what is always there to see, |
| Tx:22.25 | Behold the | great projection, but look on it with the decision that it must be |

| Tx:22.61 | For it seems safer to attack another or yourself than to attack the | great Creator of the universe, whose power you know. |
| Tx:23.33 | These do not seem to be the goals of chaos, for by the | great reversal, they appear to be the laws of order. How could it not |
| Tx:24.7 | Specialness is the | great dictator of the wrong decisions. Here is the grand illusion of |
| Tx:24.19 | gift that God would have him give to you. His need to give it is as | great as yours to have it. Let him forgive you all your specialness |
| Tx:24.23 | its purpose dear but clings to murder as safety's weapon and the | great defender of all illusions from the “threat” of love. |
| Tx:24.31 | Forgive the | great Creator of the universe, the Source of life, of love and |
| Tx:24.58 | yourself under the laws you see as ruling him. Think, then, how | great the love of God for you must be that He has given you a part of |
| Tx:24.62 | And while it calls to him, he hears no other Voice. No effort is too | great, no cost too much, no price too dear to save his specialness |
| Tx:25.41 | How beautiful his sinlessness will be when you perceive it! And how | great will be your joy, when he is free to offer you the gift of |
| Tx:25.75 | which you need comes not of you but from a larger Self, so | great and holy that He could not doubt His innocence. Your special |
| Tx:26.13 | is not true. The Holy Spirit does not evaluate injustices as | great or small or more or less. They have no properties to Him. They |
| Tx:26.14 | or judge that it is one which has no resolution, you have made it | great and past the hope of healing. You deny the miracle of justice |
| Tx:26.15 | to preserve yourself. It is these problems that you think are | great and cannot be resolved. For there are those you want to suffer |
| Tx:26.16 | Think then how | great your own release will be when you are willing to receive |

| Tx:10.26 | God knows nothing. That way is hard indeed and very lonely. Fear and | grief are your guests, and they go with you and abide with you on the |
| Tx:27.5 | bitter picture you have sent your brother you have looked upon in | grief. And everything that it has shown to him have you believed |
| Tx:29.38 | of danger and destruction, sin, and death; of madness and of murder, | grief and loss. This is the “sacrifice” salvation asks and gladly |
| Tx:31.30 | dogs of hate and evil, sickness and attack, of pain and age, of | grief and suffering. Here are the thoughts of sacrifice preserved, |
| W1:99.5 | the Holy Spirit look on what you see—on sin and pain and death, on | grief and separation, and on loss. Yet does He know one thing must |
| W1:R4.12 | our faithfulness restored the world from darkness to the light, from | grief to joy, from pain to peace, from sin to holiness. God offers |
| W1:152.2 | gift of everything, can loss be real? Can pain be part of peace, or | grief of joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a mind where love and |
| W1:162.5 | despair when perfect joy is yours, available to all as remedy for | grief and misery, all sense of loss, and for complete escape from sin |
| W1:164.3 | sins forgot and all your sorrows unremembered. On this day is | grief laid by, for sights and sounds which come from nearer than the |
| W1:187.6 | may take. He laughs as well at pain and loss, at sickness and at | grief, at poverty, starvation and at death. He recognizes sacrifice |
| W1:194.5 | For the past is gone, and what is present, freed from its bequest of | grief and misery, of pain and loss, becomes the instant in which time |
| W2:284.1 | is not loss when properly perceived. Pain is impossible. There is no | grief with any cause at all. And suffering of any kind is nothing but |
| W2:284.2 | Father, what You have given cannot hurt, and | grief and pain must be impossible. Let me not fail to trust in You |
| W2:285.1 | pain to me, what purpose would my suffering fulfill, and how would | grief and loss avail me, if insanity departs from me today and I |
| M:4.7 | up the valueless. Through this he learns that where he anticipated | grief, he finds a happy light-heartedness instead; where he thought |
| M:4.16 | are beloved and must be safe. Joy goes with gentleness as surely as | grief attends attack. God's teachers trust in Him. And they are sure |

| W1:68.1 | like Itself can hold no grievances and know your Self. To hold a | grievance is to forget who you are. To hold a grievance is to see |
| W1:68.1 | your Self. To hold a grievance is to forget who you are. To hold a | grievance is to see yourself as a body. It is the decision to let the |
| W1:68.11 | application of today's idea in this form, whenever any thought of | grievance arises against anyone, physically present or not: |
| W1:69.12 | If I hold this | grievance, the light of the world will be hidden from me, |
| W1:71.3 | Each | grievance you hold is a declaration and an assertion in which you |
| W1:72.6 | it would be difficult indeed to escape this conclusion. And every | grievance that you hold insists that the body is real. It overlooks |
| W1:73.17 | today's idea in this form immediately you are tempted to hold a | grievance of any kind. This will help you let your grievances go |
| W1:78.1 | quite clear to you that each decision that you make is one between a | grievance and a miracle. Each grievance stands like a dark shield of |
| W1:78.1 | that you make is one between a grievance and a miracle. Each | grievance stands like a dark shield of hate before the miracle it |
| W1:78.3 | will appear in shining light where each one stood before. For every | grievance is a block to sight, and as it lifts, you see the Son of |
| W1:78.3 | has always been. He stands in light, but you were in the dark. Each | grievance made the darkness deeper, and you could not see. |
| W1:89.4 | Behind this is a miracle to which I am entitled. Let me not hold a | grievance against you [name], but offer you the miracle that belongs |

| W1:68.4 | those who forgive will find peace. It is as sure that those who hold | grievances will forget who they are as it is certain that those who |
| W1:68.4 | forgive will remember. Would you not be willing to relinquish your | grievances if you believed all this were so? |

| W1:71.2 | The ego's plan for salvation centers around holding | grievances. It maintains that if someone else spoke or acted |
| W1:71.13 | and only His, will work. Be alert to all temptation to hold | grievances today, and respond to them with this form of today's idea: |
| W1:71.14 | Holding | grievances is the opposite of God's plan for salvation. And only His |

| W1:72.8 | you are attacking God's plan for salvation and holding your | grievances against Him and His creation, that you may not hear the |
| W1:72.14 | salvation without waiting to hear what it is. We have shouted our | grievances so loudly that we have not listened to His Voice. We have |
| W1:72.14 | so loudly that we have not listened to His Voice. We have used our | grievances to close our eyes and stop our ears. Now we would see and |
| W1:72.19 | Holding | grievances is an attack on God's plan for salvation. Let me accept it |
| W1:73.2 | Idle wishes and | grievances are partners or co-makers in picturing the world you see. |
| W1:73.2 | see. The wishes of the ego gave rise to it, and the ego's need for | grievances, which are necessary to maintain it, peoples it with |
| W1:73.2 | judgment. They become the middlemen the ego employs to traffic in | grievances and stand between your awareness and your brothers' |
| W1:73.3 | this strange bartering, in which guilt is traded back and forth and | grievances increase with each exchange. Can such a world have been |
| W1:73.5 | The source of neither light nor darkness can be found without. | Grievances darken your mind, and you look out on a darkened world. |
| W1:73.6 | We have repeatedly emphasized that the barrier of | grievances is easily passed and cannot stand between you and your |
| W1:73.17 | tempted to hold a grievance of any kind. This will help you let your | grievances go instead of cherishing them and hiding them in the |
| W1:77.11 | I will not trade miracles for | grievances. I want only what belongs to me. God has established |
| W1:78.1 | Yet all the while it waits for you in light, but you behold your | grievances instead. |
| W1:78.2 | Today we go beyond the | grievances to look upon the miracle instead. We will reverse the way |
| W1:78.3 | He waits for you behind your | grievances, and as you lay them down, he will appear in shining light |
| W1:78.4 | We will not let ourselves be blind to him; we will not look upon our | grievances. So is the seeing of the world reversed, as we look out |
| W1:78.5 | We will select one person you have used as target for your | grievances and lay the grievances aside and look at him. Someone |
| W1:78.5 | one person you have used as target for your grievances and lay the | grievances aside and look at him. Someone perhaps you fear and even |
| W1:78.6 | whom we ask God's Son be shown to us. Through seeing him behind the | grievances that we have held against him, you will learn that what |

| W1:86.5 | Holding grievances is an attack on God's plan for salvation. Holding | grievances is an attempt to prove that God's plan for salvation will |
| W1:86.5 | for salvation will not work. Yet only His plan will work. By holding | grievances, I am therefore excluding my only hope of salvation from |
| W1:86.7 | misperception and salvation as I look on this. If I see grounds for | grievances in this, I will not see the grounds for my salvation. This |
| W1:88.2 | is already here. Salvation is a decision made already. Attack and | grievances are not there to choose. That is why I always choose |
| W1:89.2 | because I am under no laws but God's. His laws release me from all | grievances and replace them with miracles. And I would accept the |
| W1:89.2 | them with miracles. And I would accept the miracles in place of the | grievances, which are but illusions that hide the miracles beyond. |
| W1:89.5 | [78] Let miracles replace all | grievances. By this idea do I unite my will with the Holy Spirit's |
| W1:89.7 | I would not hold this grievance apart from my salvation. Let our | grievances be replaced by miracles, [name]. Beyond this is the |

| Tx:5.25 | lost to him until he chooses right. The Holy Spirit is your | Guide in choosing. He is the part of your mind which always speaks |
| Tx:5.35 | viewpoint you are undertaking an ego-alien journey with the ego as | guide. This is bound to produce fear. |
| Tx:5.43 | He is in Holy Communion always, and He is part of you. He is your | Guide to salvation, because He holds the remembrance of things past |
| Tx:6.53 | abilities to the point where they can get you out of it. You have a | Guide to how to develop them, but you have no commander except |
| Tx:6.53 | yourself. This leaves you in charge of the Kingdom with both a | Guide to find it and a means to keep it. You have a model to follow |
| Tx:6.95 | if you follow Him. Your vigilance is the sign that you want Him to | guide you. Vigilance does require effort, but only to teach you that |
| Tx:7.104 | No one obeys gladly a | guide he does not trust, but this does not mean that the guide is |
| Tx:7.104 | gladly a guide he does not trust, but this does not mean that the | guide is untrustworthy. In this case, it always means that the |
| Tx:7.107 | The Holy Spirit will always | guide you truly, because your joy is His. This is His Will for |
| Tx:8.92 | up so that it is completely impossible to escape from it without a | Guide who does know what your reality is. The purpose of this Guide |
| Tx:8.92 | a Guide who does know what your reality is. The purpose of this | Guide is merely to remind you of what you want. He is not attempting |

| Tx:9.10 | that you do not make them or that you can correct them without a | Guide to correction. And if you do not follow this Guide, your errors |
| Tx:9.10 | them without a Guide to correction. And if you do not follow this | Guide, your errors will not be corrected. The plan is not yours, |
| Tx:9.16 | whether they place the ego in a very sound position as the | guide for yours. It seems absurd to have to emphasize repeatedly that |
| Tx:9.16 | to have to emphasize repeatedly that the ego's qualifications as a | guide are singularly unfortunate and that it is a remarkably poor |
| Tx:9.16 | in the whole separation fantasy. Anyone who elects a totally insane | guide must be totally insane himself. |
| Tx:9.17 | It is not true that you do not know the | guide is insane. You know it because I know it, and you have judged |
| Tx:9.28 | He makes healing perfectly clear in any situation in which he is the | Guide. The human therapist can only let Him fulfill His function. He |
| Tx:9.28 | you if you do not interfere. Remember that you are choosing a | guide for helping, and the wrong choice will not help. But remember |
| Tx:9.29 | Only the good can work. Nothing else works at all. This course is a | guide to behavior. Being a very direct and very simple learning |
| Tx:9.29 | a very direct and very simple learning situation, it provides the | Guide who tells you what to do. If you do it, you will see that it |
| Tx:9.29 | will convince you that the words are true. By following the right | Guide you will learn the simplest of all lessons— |
| Tx:10.76 | is your firm beginning. You are not misguided; you have accepted no | guide at all. Instruction in perception is your great need, for you |
| Tx:11.40 | home is there. Yet the Holy Spirit knows it for you, and He will | guide you to your home because that is His mission. As He fulfills |
| Tx:11.41 | Behold the | Guide your Father gave you that you might learn you have eternal |
| Tx:11.49 | legitimate teaching aid, every real instruction, and every sensible | guide to learning will be misinterpreted. For they are all for |
| Tx:11.67 | and you look in before you look out. As you look in you choose the | guide for seeing, and then you look out and behold his witnesses. |
| Tx:13.78 | Let Him, therefore, be the only | Guide that you would follow to salvation. He knows the way and leads |
| Tx:14.35 | lead yourselves astray, but you can only be brought together by the | Guide appointed for you. He will surely lead you to where God and His |
| Tx:14.65 | to it. And I will not use my own past learning as the light to | guide me now. |
| Tx:14.66 | this refusal to attempt to teach yourself what you do not know, the | Guide Whom God has given you will speak to you. He will take His |
| Tx:14.67 | You cannot be your | guide to miracles, for it is you who made them necessary. And because |
| Tx:18.84 | Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in God's keeping and needs no | guide. Yet this wild and delusional thought needs help because in its |
| Tx:18.92 | will not bruise yourself against them in traveling through. Let your | Guide teach you their unsubstantial nature as He leads you past them, |
| Tx:19.97 | weakness and learn it has no power to keep you from the truth. The | Guide Who brought you here remains with you, and when you raise your |

| Tx:24.44 | which to see, no ears to listen, and no hands to hold nor feet to | guide. Be glad that only Christ can lend you His while you have need |
| Tx:31.74 | is given you is for release—the sight, the vision, and the inner | Guide all lead you out of hell with those you love beside you and the |
| W1:24.1 | realize the outcome that would make you happy. Therefore you have no | guide to appropriate action and no way of judging the result. What |

| W1:155.9 | are tempted still to walk ahead of truth and let illusions be your | guide. Your holy brothers have been given you to follow in your |
| W1:155.13 | to ways which seem to lead you elsewhere. Dreams are not a worthy | guide for you who are God's Son. Forget not He has placed His hand in |
| W1:157.8 | happy dreams of life, Translator of perception into truth, the holy | Guide to Heaven given you has dreamed for you this journey which you |

| W1:215.1 | [195] Love is the way I walk in gratitude. The Holy Spirit is my only | Guide. He walks with me in love. And I give thanks to Him for showing |
| W2:I.7 | of Your coming. We have sought to find our way by following the | Guide You sent to us. We did not know the way, but You did not forget |
| W2:WF.5 | and let forgiveness show you what to do through Him Who is your | Guide, your Savior and Defender, strong in hope, and certain of your |

| W2:314.2 | past mistakes and sure that You will keep Your present promises and | guide the future in their holy light. |
| W2:321.1 | searched in vain until I heard Your Voice directing me. Now I would | guide myself no more. For I have neither made nor understood the way |

| Tx:12.54 | received it of you, they would keep it. You have established them as | guides to peace, for you have made it manifest in them. And seeing |

| Tx:1.104 | impulses (or misdirected miracle impulses) result in conscious | guilt if expressed and depression if denied. All real pleasure comes |
| Tx:2.43 | there is a period of real disorientation accompanied by fear, | guilt, and usually vacillations between anxiety and depression. This |
| Tx:2.91 | thought. This is the usual psychoanalytic approach. It does allay | guilt but at the cost of rendering thinking impotent. If you believe |

| Tx:5.48 | between neurotic and “healthy” guilt feelings is that neurotic | guilt feelings do not help anyone. This distinction is wise though |
| Tx:5.48 | Let us make the distinction a little sharper now. Neurotic | guilt feelings are a device of the ego for “atoning” without sharing |
| Tx:5.49 | Your concept of “healthy | guilt feelings” has merit, but without the concept of the Atonement, |
| Tx:5.59 | become clearer and more personally meaningful if the ego's use of | guilt is clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:5.59 | again, let us remember that both are in you. In Heaven there is no | guilt, because the Kingdom is attained through the Atonement, which |
| Tx:5.60 | What is truly blessed is incapable of giving rise to | guilt and must give rise to joy. This makes it invulnerable to the |
| Tx:5.60 | unassailable. It is invulnerable to disruption because it is whole. | Guilt is always disruptive. Anything that engenders fear is divisive |
| Tx:5.60 | If the ego is the symbol of the separation, it is also the symbol of | guilt. Guilt is more than merely not of God. It is the symbol of the |
| Tx:5.60 | ego is the symbol of the separation, it is also the symbol of guilt. | Guilt is more than merely not of God. It is the symbol of the attack |
| Tx:5.60 | power of the ego's belief in it. This is the belief from which all | guilt really stems. |
| Tx:5.61 | as guilty. Whenever you respond to your ego, you will experience | guilt and you will fear punishment. The ego is quite literally a |
| Tx:5.62 | of retaliation from without then follows because the severity of the | guilt is so acute that it must be projected. Although Freud was wrong |
| Tx:5.63 | God. To think with Him is to think like Him. This engenders joy, not | guilt, because it is natural. Guilt is a sure sign that your thinking |
| Tx:5.63 | like Him. This engenders joy, not guilt, because it is natural. | Guilt is a sure sign that your thinking is unnatural. Perverted |
| Tx:5.63 | is unnatural. Perverted thinking will always be attended with | guilt because it is the belief in sin. |
| Tx:5.68 | Himself orders your thought because your thought was created by Him. | Guilt feelings are always a sign that you do not know this. They also |
| Tx:5.68 | apart from God and want to. Every thought disorder is attended by | guilt at its inception and maintained by guilt in its continuance. |
| Tx:5.68 | disorder is attended by guilt at its inception and maintained by | guilt in its continuance. Guilt is inescapable for those who believe |
| Tx:5.68 | guilt at its inception and maintained by guilt in its continuance. | Guilt is inescapable for those who believe they order their own |
| Tx:5.70 | will to remain separated is the only possible reason for continuing | guilt feelings. We have said this before, but we did not emphasize |
| Tx:5.72 | Guilt feelings are the preservers of time. They induce fears of | |
| Tx:5.72 | you choose to make this exchange, you will simultaneously exchange | guilt for joy, viciousness for love, and pain for peace. My role is |
| Tx:5.79 | There can be no case against a Child of God, and every witness to | guilt in God's creations is bearing false witness to God Himself. |
| Tx:5.94 | be undone by repentance in the usual sense because this implies | guilt. If you allow yourself to feel guilty, you will reinforce the |
| Tx:6.19 | the crucifixion entirely without anger, because their own sense of | guilt had made them angry. |
| Tx:8.98 | has not left him. The martyr, on the other hand, is more aware of | guilt and, believing that punishment is inevitable, attempts to teach |
| Tx:11.75 | you have been treacherous to your Father. That is why the undoing of | guilt is an essential part of the Holy Spirit's teaching. For as long |
| Tx:11.85 | not an attempt to relinquish denial but to hold on to it. For it is | guilt that has obscured the Father to you, and it is guilt that has |
| Tx:11.85 | it. For it is guilt that has obscured the Father to you, and it is | guilt that has driven you insane. |
| Tx:11.86 | The acceptance of | guilt into the Mind of God's Son was the beginning of the separation, |
| Tx:11.86 | end. The world you see is the delusional system of those made mad by | guilt. Look carefully at this world, and you will realize that this |
| Tx:11.87 | and this is the ego's interpretation, not God's. Only the world of | guilt could demand this, for only the guilty could conceive of it. |
| Tx:11.89 | for sharing the Father's love for His Son, He wills to remove all | guilt from his mind that he may remember his Father in peace. For |
| Tx:11.89 | his mind that he may remember his Father in peace. For peace and | guilt are antithetical, and the Father can be remembered only in |
| Tx:11.89 | and the Father can be remembered only in peace. Love and | guilt cannot coexist, and to accept one is to deny the other. Guilt |
| Tx:11.89 | and guilt cannot coexist, and to accept one is to deny the other. | Guilt hides Christ from your sight, for it is the denial of the |
| Tx:11.90 | him invisible, the world of retribution rose in the black cloud of | guilt which you accepted, and you hold it dear. For the blamelessness |
| Tx:11.90 | Christ is the proof that the ego never was and can never be. Without | guilt the ego has no life, and God's Son is without guilt. As you |
| Tx:11.90 | be. Without guilt the ego has no life, and God's Son is without | guilt. As you look upon yourselves and judge what you do honestly, as |
| Tx:11.94 | the Atonement for yourselves, you will realize that there is no | guilt in God's Son. And only as you look upon him as guiltless can |
| Tx:11.94 | him as guiltless can you understand his oneness. For the idea of | guilt brings a belief in condemnation of one by another, projecting |
| Tx:11.95 | always been. Let the holiness of God's Son shine away the cloud of | guilt that darkens your mind, and by accepting his purity as yours, |
| Tx:11.96 | because you are guiltless. You can hold on to the past only through | guilt. For guilt establishes that you will be punished for what you |
| Tx:11.96 | are guiltless. You can hold on to the past only through guilt. For | guilt establishes that you will be punished for what you have done |
| Tx:11.96 | who believes this can understand what always means. And therefore | guilt must deprive you of the appreciation of eternity. You are |
| Tx:11.96 | You are immortal because you are eternal and always must be now. | Guilt, then, is a way of holding past and future in your minds to |
| Tx:11.97 | The future, in time, is always associated with expiation, and only | guilt could induce a sense of need for expiation. Accepting the |
| Tx:11.98 | You cannot dispel | guilt by making it real and then atoning for it. This is the ego's |
| Tx:11.98 | to the insane notion that attack is salvation. And you who cherish | guilt must also believe it, for how else but by identifying with the |
| Tx:11.99 | attack yourself because you are guilty, and this must increase the | guilt, for guilt is the result of attack. In the ego's teaching, |
| Tx:11.99 | because you are guilty, and this must increase the guilt, for | guilt is the result of attack. In the ego's teaching, then, there is |
| Tx:11.99 | of attack. In the ego's teaching, then, there is no escape from | guilt. For attack makes guilt real, and if it is real, there is no |
| Tx:11.99 | teaching, then, there is no escape from guilt. For attack makes | guilt real, and if it is real, there is no way to overcome it. The |
| Tx:11.99 | And being true for you, you cannot attack yourself, for without | guilt, attack is impossible. You, then, are saved because God's Son |
| Tx:12.1 | purpose of projection, as the ego uses it, is always to get rid of | guilt. Yet, characteristically, the ego attempts to get rid of guilt |
| Tx:12.1 | of guilt. Yet, characteristically, the ego attempts to get rid of | guilt from its viewpoint only, for much as the ego wants to retain |
| Tx:12.1 | guilt from its viewpoint only, for much as the ego wants to retain | guilt, you find it intolerable, since guilt stands in the way of your |
| Tx:12.1 | as the ego wants to retain guilt, you find it intolerable, since | guilt stands in the way of your remembering God, Whose pull is so |
| Tx:12.1 | then, the deepest split of all occurs, for if you are to retain | guilt as the ego insists, you cannot be you. Only by persuading you |
| Tx:12.1 | you that it is you, could the ego possibly induce you to project | guilt and thereby keep it in your mind. |
| Tx:12.2 | how strange a solution the ego's arrangement is. You project | guilt to get rid of it, but you are actually merely concealing it. |
| Tx:12.2 | of it, but you are actually merely concealing it. You do experience | guilt feelings, but you have no idea why. On the contrary, you |
| Tx:12.3 | The darkest of your hidden cornerstones holds your belief in | guilt from your awareness. For in that dark and secret place is the |
| Tx:12.4 | ego's strange behavior is directly attributable to its definition of | guilt. To the ego, the guiltless are guilty. Those who do not attack |
| Tx:12.5 | who you are and identifying with something else. You have projected | guilt blindly and indiscriminately, but you have not uncovered its |
| Tx:12.6 | the ego is god, and guiltlessness must be interpreted as the final | guilt which fully justifies murder. You do not yet understand that |
| Tx:12.8 | The Atonement has always been interpreted as the release from | guilt, and this is correct if it is understood. Yet even when I have |
| Tx:12.26 | that is meaningful. You will remember that we said its emphasis on | guilt enables it to ensure its continuity by making the future like |
| Tx:12.47 | lies your release. For if He is as He was created, there is no | guilt in Him. No cloud of guilt has risen to obscure Him, and He |
| Tx:12.47 | if He is as He was created, there is no guilt in Him. No cloud of | guilt has risen to obscure Him, and He stands revealed in everyone |
| Tx:13.11 | Guilt remains the only thing that hides the Father, for guilt is the | |
| Tx:13.11 | Guilt remains the only thing that hides the Father, for | guilt is the attack upon His Son. The guilty always condemn, and |
| Tx:13.12 | Release from | guilt is the ego's whole undoing. Make no one fearful, for his guilt |
| Tx:13.12 | from guilt is the ego's whole undoing. Make no one fearful, for his | guilt is yours, and by obeying the ego's harsh commandments, you |
| Tx:13.14 | distinction. Therefore, you cannot value one without the other, and | guilt has become as true for you as innocence. You do not believe the |
| Tx:13.14 | have freed him from the past and lifted from his mind the cloud of | guilt that binds him to it. And in his freedom would have been your |
| Tx:13.15 | Lay not his | guilt upon him, for his guilt lies in his secret that he thinks that |
| Tx:13.15 | Lay not his guilt upon him, for his | guilt lies in his secret that he thinks that he has done this unto |
| Tx:13.16 | that you offer the Son of God lies the conviction of your own | guilt. If you would have the Holy Spirit make you free of it, accept |
| Tx:13.16 | of God in part. Those whom you see as guilty become the witnesses to | guilt in you, and you will see it there, for it is there until it is |
| Tx:13.16 | you, and you will see it there, for it is there until it is undone. | Guilt is always in your own mind, which has condemned itself. Project |
| Tx:13.16 | you do, it cannot be undone. With everyone whom you release from | guilt, great is the joy in Heaven, where the witnesses to your |
| Tx:13.17 | Guilt makes you blind, for while you see one spot of guilt within | |
| Tx:13.17 | Guilt makes you blind, for while you see one spot of | guilt within you, you will not see the light. And by projecting it, |
| Tx:13.17 | And by projecting it, the world seems dark and shrouded in your | guilt. You throw a dark veil over it and cannot see it because you |
| Tx:13.18 | Do not be afraid to look within. The ego tells you all is black with | guilt within you and bids you not to look. Instead, it bids you look |
| Tx:13.18 | to look. Instead, it bids you look upon your brothers and see the | guilt in them. Yet this you cannot do without remaining blind. For |
| Tx:13.19 | there is no difference, for He knows not of differences. Can you see | guilt where God knows there is perfect innocence? You can deny His |
| Tx:13.20 | doubtful service of displacement is to hide the real source of your | guilt and keep from your awareness the full perception that it is |
| Tx:13.20 | be true and must be fearful, or you would not have displaced the | guilt onto what you believed to be less fearful. You are therefore |
| Tx:13.21 | for that is why they are insane. No real relationship can rest on | guilt or even hold one spot of it to mar its purity. For all |
| Tx:13.21 | hold one spot of it to mar its purity. For all relationships which | guilt has touched are used but to avoid the person and the guilt. |
| Tx:13.21 | which guilt has touched are used but to avoid the person and the | guilt. What strange relationships you have made for this strange |
| Tx:13.21 | Spirit, and it is that which makes them pure. [If you displace your | guilt upon them, the Holy Spirit cannot use them.] For by preempting |
| Tx:13.22 | In any union with a brother in which you seek to lay your | guilt upon him or share it with him or perceive his own, you will |
| Tx:13.22 | with him, because your union with him is not real. You will see | guilt in that relationship because you put it there. It is inevitable |
| Tx:13.22 | because you put it there. It is inevitable that those who suffer | guilt will attempt to displace it, because they do believe in it. |
| Tx:13.22 | what loving is. Their main concern is to perceive the source of | guilt outside themselves, beyond their own control. |
| Tx:13.24 | you would have yourself be welcome to your Father, you will see no | guilt in you. For you will have accepted the Atonement, which shone |
| Tx:13.24 | the Atonement, which shone within you all the while you dreamed of | guilt and would not look within and see it. |
| Tx:13.25 | As long as you believe that | guilt is justified in any way in anyone whatever he may do, you will |
| Tx:13.25 | not look within, where you would always find Atonement. The end of | guilt will never come as long as you believe there is a reason for |
| Tx:13.25 | as you believe there is a reason for it. For you must learn that | guilt is always totally insane and has no reason. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.25 | and has no reason. The Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. If | guilt were real, Atonement would not be. The purpose of Atonement is |
| Tx:13.26 | you from. What He has saved you from is gone. Give no reality to | guilt, and see no reason for it. The Holy Spirit does what God would |
| Tx:13.27 | As yet it is not now. The Son of God believes that he is lost in | guilt, alone in a dark world where pain is pressing everywhere upon |
| Tx:13.27 | not and looked upon him as condemned. The moment that you realize | guilt is insane, wholly unjustified, and wholly without reason, you |
| Tx:13.28 | not to look upon the lovely truth in you. Look through the cloud of | guilt that dims your vision, and look past darkness to the holy place |
| Tx:13.29 | Release from | guilt as you would be released. There is no other way to look within |
| Tx:13.29 | and see your holiness. You cannot be as you believed you were. Your | guilt is without reason, because it is not in the Mind of God where |
| Tx:13.30 | you single out part of the Sonship for your love, you are imposing | guilt on all your relationships and making them unreal. You can love |
| Tx:13.31 | look upon his holiness and offer thanks unto his Father that no | guilt has ever touched him. |
| Tx:13.32 | his innocence in any way. His shining purity, wholly untouched by | guilt and wholly loving, is bright within you. Let us look upon him |
| Tx:13.32 | yourself, and gladness and appreciation for what you see will banish | guilt forever. I thank You, Father, for the purity of Your most holy |
| Tx:13.34 | can even think on it. Before the glorious radiance of the Kingdom, | guilt melts away and, transformed into kindness, will never more be |
| Tx:13.35 | advice for how to deal with the perceived and harsh intrusion of | guilt on peace. Yet no one sees himself in conflict and ravaged by a |
| Tx:13.36 | freedom. Nothing destructive ever was or will be. The war, the | guilt, the past are gone as one into the unreality from which they |
| Tx:13.39 | You whose minds are darkened by doubt and | guilt, remember this: God gave the Holy Spirit to you and gave Him |
| Tx:13.39 | you and gave Him the mission to remove all doubt and every trace of | guilt that His dear Son has laid upon himself. It is impossible that |
| Tx:13.49 | If what you offer is complete forgiveness, you must have let | guilt go, accepting the Atonement for yourself and learning you are |
| Tx:13.64 | because his thoughts are free. Yet this entails the recognition that | guilt is interference, not salvation, and serves no useful function |
| Tx:13.65 | are accustomed to using guiltlessness merely to offset the pain of | guilt and do not look upon it as having value in itself. You believe |
| Tx:13.65 | and do not look upon it as having value in itself. You believe that | guilt and guiltlessness are both of value, each representing an |
| Tx:13.65 | can you be happy. There is no conflict here. To wish for | guilt in any way, in any form, will lose appreciation of the value of |
| Tx:13.66 | There is no compromise that you can make with | guilt and escape the pain which only guiltlessness allays. Learning |
| Tx:13.66 | is living here, as creating is being in Heaven. Whenever the pain of | guilt seems to attract you, remember that, if you yield to it, you |
| Tx:13.68 | between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for | guilt; the Holy Spirit the decision for guiltlessness. The power of |
| Tx:13.69 | attesting to your happiness that comes from choosing to be free of | guilt. Everyone you offer healing to returns it. Everyone you attack |
| Tx:13.71 | There is nothing to forgive. No one can hurt the Son of God. His | guilt is wholly without cause, and being without cause, cannot exist. |
| Tx:13.72 | God is the only Cause, and | guilt is not of Him. Teach no one he has hurt you, for if you do, you |
| Tx:13.72 | or choose to look upon without imposing on himself the penalty of | guilt in place of all the happy teaching the Holy Spirit would gladly |
| Tx:13.73 | invulnerable. But those who believe they are guilty will respond to | guilt because they think it is salvation and will not refuse to see |
| Tx:13.73 | not refuse to see it and side with it. [They believe that increasing | guilt is self-protection.] And they will fail to understand the |
| Tx:13.77 | saved from. The Holy Spirit knows that all salvation is escape from | guilt. You have no other “enemy,” and against this strange distortion |
| Tx:13.79 | “sin” of self-replacement on the throne of God is not a source of | guilt. What cannot happen can have no effects to fear. Be quiet in |
| Tx:13.89 | till you learn this. For in the end, whatever form it takes, your | guilt arises from your failure to fulfill your function in God's Mind |
| Tx:13.89 | your function in God's Mind with all of yours. Can you escape this | guilt by failing to fulfill your function here? You need not |
| Tx:13.91 | upon yourself by loving not the Son of God and trying to teach him | guilt instead of love. Give up this frantic and insane attempt, which |
| Tx:13.92 | whether this is not more restful than sleep. For you can bring your | guilt into sleeping but not into this. |
| Tx:14.5 | Spirit and to God through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is no | guilt in you, for God is blessed in His Son as the Son is blessed in |
| Tx:14.6 | that his true function remains unfulfilled in him. The burden of | guilt is heavy, but God would not have you bound by it. His plan for |
| Tx:14.7 | here is to devote yourself with active willingness to the denial of | guilt in all its forms. To accuse is not to understand. The happy |
| Tx:14.8 | his creation. Do not try to steal it from him, or you will ask for | guilt and will experience it. Protect his purity from every thought |
| Tx:14.8 | allow purity to remain hidden, but shine away the heavy veils of | guilt within which the Son of God has hidden himself from his own |
| Tx:14.9 | to be free of pain? He may not yet have learned how to exchange his | guilt for innocence nor realize that only in this exchange can |
| Tx:14.10 | made on its behalf is offered for the single purpose of release from | guilt to the eternal glory of God and His creation. And every |
| Tx:14.11 | right of God's creation. From everyone whom you accord release from | guilt, you will inevitably learn your innocence. The circle of |
| Tx:14.12 | Joy is its unifying attribute, with no one left outside to suffer | guilt alone. The power of God draws everyone to its safe embrace of |
| Tx:14.12 | holiness. Abide with me within it as teachers of Atonement, not of | guilt. |
| Tx:14.14 | became my part in it. That is the symbol of the release from | guilt by guiltlessness. Whom you perceive as guilty, you would |
| Tx:14.19 | because destruction is not true. The light of guiltlessness shines | guilt away because, when they are brought together, the truth of one |
| Tx:14.19 | one must make the falsity of its opposite perfectly clear. Keep not | guilt and guiltlessness apart, for your belief that you can have them |
| Tx:14.32 | Son. All this lies hidden in every darkened place shrouded in | guilt and in the dark denial of innocence. Behind the dark doors |
| Tx:14.33 | by gifts wholly acceptable to Father and to Son. Can you offer | guilt to God? You cannot, then, offer it to His Son. For they are not |
| Tx:14.46 | as surely as the reflection of holiness calls everyone to lay all | guilt aside. Reflect the peace of Heaven here and bring this world to |
| Tx:14.68 | How can you, so firmly bound to | guilt and committed so to remain, establish for yourself your |
| Tx:14.70 | His bright teaching so firmly in your mind that no dark lessons of | guilt can abide in what He has established as holy by His Presence. |
| Tx:15.5 | cannot conceive of its own death, it will pursue you still because | guilt is eternal. Such is the ego's version of immortality. And it is |
| Tx:15.7 | believe that it can offer the escape from it. But the belief in | guilt must lead to the belief in hell, and always does. The only way |
| Tx:15.8 | to its teaching, is nothing but a teaching device for compounding | guilt until it becomes all-encompassing and demands vengeance forever. |
| Tx:15.9 | present extends forever. It is so beautiful and so clean and free of | guilt that nothing but happiness is there. No darkness is remembered, |
| Tx:15.14 | cleanness of the release you give is your instantaneous escape from | guilt. You must be holy if you offer holiness. How long is an |
| Tx:15.31 | we can replace the shabby littleness that binds the host of God to | guilt and weakness with the glad awareness of the glory that is in |
| Tx:15.46 | We said before that to limit love to part of the Sonship is to bring | guilt into your relationships and thus make them unreal. If you seek |
| Tx:15.46 | you are attempting to use separation to save you. How, then, could | guilt not enter? For separation is the source of guilt, and to appeal |
| Tx:15.46 | How, then, could guilt not enter? For separation is the source of | guilt, and to appeal to it for salvation is to believe you are alone. |
| Tx:15.48 | Because of | guilt, all special relationships have some elements of fear in them. |
| Tx:15.49 | offer Him your willingness to have it serve no need but His. All the | guilt in it arises from your use of it. All the love from His. Do |
| Tx:15.56 | to use one relationship at the expense of another and not suffer | guilt. And it is equally impossible to condemn part of a relationship |
| Tx:15.56 | only from perfect faith in yourself. And this you cannot have while | guilt remains. And there will be guilt as long as you accept the |
| Tx:15.56 | And this you cannot have while guilt remains. And there will be | guilt as long as you accept the possibility, and cherish it, that you |
| Tx:15.65 | get something. And it would keep the giver bound to itself through | guilt. |
| Tx:15.66 | attraction at all to anyone who perceives that it attracts through | guilt. |
| Tx:15.67 | The sick attraction of | guilt must be recognized for what it is. For having been made real to |
| Tx:15.67 | choose to let go what he believes has value. Yet the attraction of | guilt has value to you only because you have not looked at what it is |
| Tx:15.68 | We said before that the ego attempts to maintain and increase | guilt, but in such a way that you do not recognize what it would do |
| Tx:15.69 | It is this chain that binds the Son of God to | guilt, and it is this chain the Holy Spirit would remove from his |
| Tx:15.71 | which he demanded of himself, he demands the other accept the | guilt and sacrifice himself as well. Forgiveness becomes impossible, |
| Tx:15.71 | it is only by attack without forgiveness that the ego can ensure the | guilt which holds all its relationships together. |
| Tx:15.72 | as good or bad. What makes another guilty and holds him through | guilt is “good.” What releases him from guilt is “bad,” because he |
| Tx:15.72 | guilty and holds him through guilt is “good.” What releases him from | guilt is “bad,” because he would no longer believe that bodies |
| Tx:15.73 | dedicated to the continuance of loneliness, they seek relief from | guilt by increasing it in the other. For they believe that this |
| Tx:15.74 | but it cannot long deceive those who will learn that love brings no | guilt at all, and what brings guilt cannot be love and must be anger. |
| Tx:15.74 | who will learn that love brings no guilt at all, and what brings | guilt cannot be love and must be anger. All anger is nothing more |
| Tx:15.74 | is the only basis which the ego accepts for special relationships. | Guilt is the only need the ego has, and as long as you identify with |
| Tx:15.74 | is the only need the ego has, and as long as you identify with it, | guilt will remain attractive to you. |
| Tx:15.76 | compelled to attempt to keep your brother in his body, held there by | guilt. And you will see safety in guilt and danger in communication. |
| Tx:15.76 | brother in his body, held there by guilt. And you will see safety in | guilt and danger in communication. For the ego will always teach that |
| Tx:15.76 | For the ego will always teach that loneliness is solved by | guilt and that communication is the cause of loneliness. And despite |
| Tx:15.77 | Forgiveness lies in communication as surely as damnation lies in | guilt. It is the Holy Spirit's teaching function to instruct those |
| Tx:15.77 | making it evident that it is not impossible. In the holy instant, | guilt holds no attraction, since communication has been restored. And |
| Tx:15.77 | holds no attraction, since communication has been restored. And | guilt, whose only purpose is to disrupt communication, has no |
| Tx:15.80 | calls to you to share your will with them. Turn, then, in peace from | guilt to God and them. |
| Tx:15.90 | that you could see. But this you must remember—the attraction of | guilt opposes the attraction of God. His attraction for you remains |
| Tx:15.90 | is as great as His, you can turn away from love. What you invest in | guilt, you withdraw from God. And your sight grows weak and dim and |
| Tx:15.92 | of the Father and the Son. For in this world, the attraction of | guilt does stand between them. Neither time nor season means anything |
| Tx:15.93 | is truly the time of Christ. For in this liberating instant, no | guilt is laid upon the Son of God, and his unlimited power is thus |
| Tx:15.94 | separately. When you are willing to accept our relationship as real, | guilt will hold no attraction for you. For in our union, you will |
| Tx:15.96 | you would accept but this one idea, your fear of love would vanish. | Guilt cannot last when the idea of sacrifice has been removed. For if |
| Tx:15.97 | As host to the ego, you believe that you can give all your | guilt away whatever you think and purchase peace. And the payment |
| Tx:15.98 | and is therefore inseparable from attack and fear. And that | guilt is the price of love, which must be paid by fear. How fearful, |
| Tx:15.104 | learn that sacrifice is separation from love. For sacrifice brings | guilt as surely as love brings peace. Guilt is the condition of |
| Tx:15.104 | love. For sacrifice brings guilt as surely as love brings peace. | Guilt is the condition of sacrifice, as peace is the condition for |
| Tx:15.104 | condition for the awareness of your relationship with God. Through | guilt you exclude your Father and your brothers from yourself. |
| Tx:16.32 | the destructive effects of hate by finding a haven in the storm of | guilt. It makes no attempt to rise above the storm into the sunlight. |
| Tx:16.32 | above the storm into the sunlight. On the contrary, it emphasizes | guilt outside the haven by attempting to build barricades against it |
| Tx:16.33 | which they would not share with others, are trying to live with | guilt rather than die of it. This is the choice they see. And love to |
| Tx:16.37 | in truth, not in illusion. Your relationship with them is without | guilt, and this enables you to look on all your brothers with |
| Tx:16.43 | realize that it involves a great amount of pain. Anxiety, despair, | guilt, and attack all enter into it, broken into by periods in which |
| Tx:16.44 | and one which has the most appeal to those unwilling to relinquish | guilt. The “dynamics” of the ego are clearest here, for counting on |
| Tx:16.50 | is nothing more than an “attractive” form of fear in which the | guilt is buried deep and rises in the form of “love.” |
| Tx:16.51 | The appeal of hell lies only in the terrible attraction of | guilt, which the ego holds out to those who place their faith in |
| Tx:16.52 | would you want it? Let us not think of its fearful nature nor of the | guilt it must entail nor of the sadness and the loneliness. For these |
| Tx:16.60 | is His most helpful tool in protecting you from the attraction of | guilt, the real lure in the special relationship. You do not |
| Tx:16.60 | relationship, the more apparent it becomes that it must foster | guilt and therefore must imprison. |
| Tx:16.65 | For you are no longer wholly insane, and you would recognize the | guilt of self-betrayal for what it is. |
| Tx:16.67 | come too far to yield to the illusion of the beauty and holiness of | guilt. Only the wholly insane could look on death and suffering, |
| Tx:16.67 | on death and suffering, sickness and despair and see it thus. What | guilt has wrought is ugly, fearful, and very dangerous. See no |
| Tx:17.25 | of beauty or the veil of ugliness, the real world or the world of | guilt and fear, truth or illusion, freedom or slavery—it is all the |
| Tx:18.6 | for such it was, and so it still remains. Invest it not with | guilt, for guilt implies it was accomplished in reality. And above |
| Tx:18.6 | such it was, and so it still remains. Invest it not with guilt, for | guilt implies it was accomplished in reality. And above all, be not |
| Tx:18.7 | but believe it is the other way; that truth is outside and error and | guilt within. Your little senseless substitutions, touched with |
| Tx:18.17 | that reality is fearful, not what you would do to it. And thus is | guilt made real. |
| Tx:18.18 | that you are making them act out for you, for if you did, the | guilt would not be theirs, and the illusion of satisfaction would be |
| Tx:18.20 | Your special relationship will remain, not as a source of pain and | guilt, but as a source of joy and freedom. It will not be for you |
| Tx:18.21 | Your special relationship will be a means for undoing | guilt in everyone blessed through your holy relationship. It will be |
| Tx:18.38 | will merely take away the little that is asked. Remember you made | guilt and that your plan for the escape from guilt has been to bring |
| Tx:18.38 | Remember you made guilt and that your plan for the escape from | guilt has been to bring Atonement to it and make salvation fearful. |
| Tx:18.42 | from your mind. That is its function. Never attempt to overlook your | guilt before you ask the Holy Spirit's help. That is His function. |
| Tx:18.50 | done a stranger thing than you yet realize. You have displaced your | guilt to your bodies from your minds. Yet a body cannot be guilty, |
| Tx:18.50 | you hate your bodies deceive yourselves. You hate your minds, for | guilt has entered into them, and they would remain separate, which |
| Tx:18.51 | it is mind that seems to be fragmented and private and alone. Its | guilt, which keeps it separate, is projected to the body, which |
| Tx:18.51 | it will attack the body by increasing the projection of its | guilt upon it. |
| Tx:18.52 | does when it believes it has attacked the body. It can project its | guilt, but it will not lose it through projection. And though it |
| Tx:18.54 | It is insane to use the body as the scapegoat for | guilt, directing its attack and blaming it for what you wished it to |
| Tx:18.54 | hate, the instrument of vengeance and the perceived source of your | guilt. You have done this to a thing that has no meaning, proclaiming |
| Tx:18.55 | of vengeance, violence, and death. This thing you made to serve your | guilt stands between you and other minds. The minds are joined, but |
| Tx:18.55 | But you would not escape from it, leaving it unharmed, without your | guilt upon it. |
| Tx:18.65 | for sin is never present. In any single instant, the attraction of | guilt would be experienced as pain and nothing else and would be |
| Tx:18.84 | You have been told to bring the darkness to the light and | guilt to holiness. And you have also been told that error must be |
| Tx:18.88 | the fury, vengeance, and betrayal that were made to keep the | guilt in place, so that the world could rise from it and keep it |
| Tx:18.89 | messenger and will act as it directs as long as you believe that | guilt is real. For the reality of guilt is the illusion which seems |
| Tx:18.89 | as long as you believe that guilt is real. For the reality of | guilt is the illusion which seems to make it heavy and opaque, |
| Tx:18.92 | So should it be with the dark clouds of | guilt, no more impenetrable and no more substantial. You will not |
| Tx:18.93 | world of light, this circle of brightness, is the real world where | guilt meets with forgiveness. Here the world outside is seen anew, |
| Tx:18.93 | Here the world outside is seen anew, without the shadow of | guilt upon it. Here are you forgiven, for here you have forgiven |
| Tx:18.93 | step in the journey inward. Here are the dark and heavy garments of | guilt laid by and gently replaced by purity and love. |
| Tx:18.97 | its unholy purpose has been safely brought through the barriers of | guilt, washed with forgiveness, and set shining and firmly rooted in |
| Tx:19.11 | in the holy instant, united in your purpose to be released from | guilt. You saw the Christ in him, and he was healed because you |
| Tx:19.12 | of faith, the Son of God is seen already forgiven, free of all the | guilt he laid upon himself. Faith sees him only now because it looks |
| Tx:19.18 | and to succeed. Sin is the proclamation that attack is real and | guilt is justified. It assumes the Son of God is guilty and has thus |
| Tx:19.22 | upside-down. This is the strange illusion which makes the clouds of | guilt seem heavy and impenetrable. The solidness this world's |
| Tx:19.25 | The attraction of | guilt is found in sin, not error. Sin will be repeated because of |
| Tx:19.25 | become so acute that the sin is denied the acting out, but while the | guilt remains attractive the mind will suffer and not let go of the |
| Tx:19.25 | the mind will suffer and not let go of the idea of sin. For | guilt still calls to it, and the mind hears it and yearns for it, |
| Tx:19.27 | will not repeat it; you will merely stop and let it go unless the | guilt remains. For then you will but change the form of sin, granting |
| Tx:19.32 | in sin. While you believe that bodies can unite, you will find | guilt attractive and believe that sin is precious. For the belief |
| Tx:19.44 | are all the same. Each is a gentle winning over from the appeal of | guilt to the appeal of love. How can this fail to be accomplished, |
| Tx:19.44 | How can this fail to be accomplished, wherever it is undertaken? | Guilt can raise no real barriers against it. And all that seems to |
| Tx:19.49 | The attraction of | guilt produces fear of love, for love would never look on guilt at |
| Tx:19.49 | of guilt produces fear of love, for love would never look on | guilt at all. It is the nature of love to look upon only the truth, |
| Tx:19.49 | past fear, so must fear see love not. For love contains the end of | guilt as surely as fear depends on it. [Love is attracted only to |
| Tx:19.49 | as fear depends on it. [Love is attracted only to love.] Overlooking | guilt completely, it sees no fear. Being wholly without attack, it |
| Tx:19.49 | that what the other looks upon does not exist. Fear looks on | guilt with just the same devotion that love looks on itself. And each |
| Tx:19.50 | gentleness. The messengers of fear are harshly ordered to seek out | guilt and cherish every scrap of evil and of sin which they can find, |
| Tx:19.51 | The fierce attraction which | guilt holds for fear is wholly absent from love's gentle perception. |
| Tx:19.51 | its friends. Its messengers steal guiltily away in hungry search of | guilt, for they are kept cold and starving and made very vicious by |
| Tx:19.51 | them to feast only upon what they return to him. No little shred of | guilt escapes their hungry eyes. And in their savage search for sin, |
| Tx:19.54 | The world will be transformed before your sight, cleansed of all | guilt and softly brushed with beauty. The world contains no fear |
| Tx:19.58 | your lives complete. This is completion, as the ego sees it. For | guilt creeps in where happiness has been removed and substitutes for |
| Tx:19.58 | for it. Communion is another kind of completion which goes beyond | guilt because it goes beyond the body. |
| Tx:19.59 | obstacle of your desire to get rid of it. Where the attraction of | guilt holds sway, peace is not wanted. The second obstacle that peace |
| Tx:19.59 | body is valuable for what it offers. For here is the attraction of | guilt made manifest in the body and seen in it. |
| Tx:19.63 | not the feast of fear. You want salvation, not the pain of | guilt. And you want your Father, not a little mound of clay, to be |
| Tx:19.64 | barriers together when you have joined the limitless? The end of | guilt is in your hands to give. Would you stop now to look for guilt |
| Tx:19.64 | of guilt is in your hands to give. Would you stop now to look for | guilt in each other? |
| Tx:19.65 | Let me be to you the symbol of the end of | guilt, and look upon each other as you would look on me. Forgive me |
| Tx:19.65 | for if you are guilty, so must I be. But if I surmounted | guilt and overcame the world, you were with me. Would you see in me |
| Tx:19.65 | the world, you were with me. Would you see in me the symbol of | guilt or of the end of guilt, remembering that what I signify to you, |
| Tx:19.65 | with me. Would you see in me the symbol of guilt or of the end of | guilt, remembering that what I signify to you, you see within |
| Tx:19.66 | Heaven. Send forth to all the world the joyous message of the end of | guilt, and all the world will answer. Think of your happiness as |
| Tx:19.66 | end of sin and shows you that its power is gone forever. Where can | guilt be, when the belief in sin is gone? And where is death, when |
| Tx:19.69 | see the means for its accomplishment and justify its use.] Peace and | guilt are both conditions of the mind to be attained. And these |
| Tx:19.71 | it invites fear to enter and become your purpose. The attraction of | guilt must enter with it, and whatever fear directs the body to do is |
| Tx:19.72 | Is not this inevitable? Under fear's orders, the body will pursue | guilt, serving its master whose attraction to guilt maintains the |
| Tx:19.72 | the body will pursue guilt, serving its master whose attraction to | guilt maintains the whole illusion of its existence. This, then, is |
| Tx:19.74 | sent away from you in the belief that for your message of attack and | guilt will someone other than yourself suffer. And even if you |
| Tx:19.75 | rule. Not one but must believe that yielding to the attraction of | guilt is the escape from pain. Not one but must regard the body as |
| Tx:19.77 | death. What seems to be the fear of death is really its attraction. | Guilt, too, is feared and fearful. Yet it could have no hold at all |
| Tx:19.80 | From the ego came sin and | guilt and death, in opposition to life and innocence and to the Will |
| Tx:19.81 | honoring the Will of his Creator. The arrogance of sin, the pride of | guilt, the sepulcher of separation—all are part of your |
| Tx:19.81 | are part of your unrecognized dedication to death. The glitter of | guilt you laid upon the body would kill it. For what the ego loves, |
| Tx:19.95 | to your “friends.” The “loveliness” of sin, the delicate appeal of | guilt, the “holy” waxen image of death, and the fear of vengeance of |
| Tx:19.104 | Forgive the sins your brother thinks he has committed and all the | guilt you think you see in him. |
| Tx:19.105 | of holiness for you. Join him in gladness and remove all trace of | guilt from his disturbed and tortured mind. Help him to lift the |
| Tx:19.109 | the gift itself appear to be. As he is seen as either the giver of | guilt or of salvation, so will his offering be seen and so received. |
| Tx:20.14 | that is within him. Now are the lilies of his innocence untouched by | guilt and perfectly protected from the cold chill of fear and |
| Tx:21.29 | often of the other. Thus in the “fairness” you attempt to ease the | guilt that comes from the accepted purpose of the relationship. And |
| Tx:22.8 | your fear of sin protect it from correction, for the attraction of | guilt is only fear. Here is the one emotion that you made, whatever |
| Tx:22.18 | Illusions carry only | guilt and suffering, sickness and death to their believers. The form |
| Tx:22.20 | The ego will assure you now that it is impossible for you to see no | guilt in anyone. And if this vision is the only means by which escape |
| Tx:22.20 | in anyone. And if this vision is the only means by which escape from | guilt can be attained, then the belief in sin must be eternal. Yet |
| Tx:22.20 | the idea is like its source. Therefore, says reason, if escape from | guilt was given to the Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom |
| Tx:23.4 | interferers pull you to littleness. There can be no attraction of | guilt in innocence. Think what a happy world you walk with truth |
| Tx:23.29 | think to look. He hid it in his body, making it the cover for his | guilt, the hiding place for what belongs to you. Now must his body be |
| Tx:23.41 | is murder, and what form of murder serves to cover the massive | guilt and frantic fear of punishment the murderer must feel? He may |
| Tx:23.41 | and pursue him still. For no one thinks of murder and escapes the | guilt the thought entails. If the intent is death, what matter the |
| Tx:23.46 | to die. Think you the form that murder takes can offer safety? Can | guilt be absent from a battlefield? [Do not remain in conflict, for |
| Tx:23.52 | recognize, the signs you know. There is a stab of pain, a twinge of | guilt, and above all, a loss of peace. This you know well. When it |

| Tx:25.23 | To the extent to which you value | guilt, to that extent will you perceive a world in which attack is |
| Tx:25.23 | which attack is justified. To the extent to which you recognize that | guilt is meaningless, to that extent will you perceive attack cannot |
| Tx:25.32 | Minds that are joined and recognize they are can feel no | guilt. For they cannot attack, and they rejoice that this is so, |
| Tx:25.34 | And all their “evil” thoughts and “sinful” hopes, their dreams of | guilt and merciless revenge, and every wish to hurt and kill and die |
| Tx:25.37 | reason to perceive the Son of God as other than he is. The need for | guilt is gone because it has no purpose and is meaningless without |
| Tx:26.48 | Guilt asks for punishment, and its request is granted—not in truth | |

| Tx:26.88 | else's guilt. Can innocence be purchased by the giving of your | guilt to someone else? And is this innocence which your attack on him |
| Tx:26.88 | this and victimized despite your innocence? Whatever way the game of | guilt is played, there must be loss. Someone must lose his innocence |

| Tx:27.3 | is no pain and no reproach at all. And what was martyred to his | guilt becomes the perfect witness to his innocence. |
| Tx:27.4 | represents. A sick and suffering you but represents your brother's | guilt—the witness which you send lest he forget the injuries he |
| Tx:27.4 | me, brother; at your hand I die.” For sickness is the witness to his | guilt, and death would prove his errors must be sins. |
| Tx:27.5 | it has shown to him have you believed because it witnessed to the | guilt in him which you perceived and loved. Now in the hands made |
| Tx:27.6 | and relentless sting of fear. Attest his innocence and not his | guilt. Your healing is his comfort and his health because it proves |
| Tx:27.7 | that is the motivation for this world. Its only purpose is to prove | guilt real. No worldly thought or act or feeling has a motivation |
| Tx:27.7 | Adornment of the body seeks to show how lovely are the witnesses for | guilt. Concerns about the body demonstrate how frail and vulnerable |
| Tx:27.9 | in itself. For it becomes the symbol of reproach, the sign of | guilt whose consequences still are there to see, so that the cause |
| Tx:27.12 | from the past, when you were sure you knew its purpose was to foster | guilt. For this insists your crippled picture is a lasting sign of |
| Tx:27.13 | may be an act of charity, but not his due. He may be pitied for his | guilt, but not exonerated. And if you forgive him his transgressions, |
| Tx:27.13 | And if you forgive him his transgressions, you but add to all the | guilt that he has really earned. |
| Tx:27.14 | that pardon is unfair. They would retain the consequences of the | guilt they overlook. Yet no one can forgive a sin which he believes |
| Tx:27.16 | his innocence be justified unless his sins have no effect to warrant | guilt? Sins are beyond forgiveness just because they would entail |

| Tx:27.19 | of your desire to see your brother with no blood upon his hands nor | guilt upon his heart made heavy with the proof of sin. And what you |
| Tx:27.21 | the grounds on which they justify his pain. The constant sting of | guilt he suffers serves to prove that he is slave but they are free. |
| Tx:27.22 | not your function. It belongs to One Who knows of fairness, not of | guilt. If you assume correction's role, you lose the function of |
| Tx:27.67 | what has seen a need for evil in the world. And this is where your | guilt was first beheld. In separation from your brother was the first |
| Tx:27.68 | causes you perceived as bringing pain and suffering to you, your | guilt was not among them. Nor did you in any way request them for |
| Tx:27.74 | He brings, there is no murder and there is no death. The dream of | guilt is fading from your sight, although your eyes are closed. A |
| Tx:27.83 | that now you think that what you did is being done to you. The | guilt for what you thought is being placed outside yourself and on a |
| Tx:27.84 | you will not see the cause of what they do because you want the | guilt to rest on them. How childish is this petulant device to keep |
| Tx:27.84 | childish is this petulant device to keep your innocence by pushing | guilt outside yourself but never letting go! It is not easy to |
| Tx:27.89 | the world when this is recognized! When you forgive the world your | guilt, you will be free of it. Its innocence does not demand your |
| Tx:27.89 | guilt, you will be free of it. Its innocence does not demand your | guilt, nor does your guiltlessness rest on its sins. |

| Tx:28.27 | silence next to every dream of pain and suffering, of sin and | guilt. They are the dream's alternative, the choice to be the dreamer |
| Tx:28.29 | you play in making sickness real, the other mind cannot project its | guilt without your aid in letting it perceive itself as separate and |
| Tx:28.35 | shows you that you never sinned. The miracle would leave no proof of | guilt to bring you witness to what never was. And in your storehouse |
| Tx:29.12 | For pain and sin are one illusion, as are hate and fear, attack and | guilt but one. Where they are causeless, their effects are gone, and |
| Tx:29.12 | all effects of hatred and attack. No more is pain your friend and | guilt your god, and you should welcome the effects of love. |
| Tx:29.62 | identity and your salvation from the judgment laid in terror and in | guilt upon yourself. |
| Tx:29.69 | will betray you. For beneath your hope that it will save you lie the | guilt and pain of self-betrayal and uncertainty, so deep and bitter |
| Tx:30.57 | is seen to be forgiveness. Fear is not its goal, and the escape from | guilt becomes its aim. The value of forgiveness is perceived and |
| Tx:30.58 | is clear that by attack is understanding lost. The folly of pursuing | guilt as goal is fully recognized. And idols are not wanted there, |
| Tx:30.58 | as goal is fully recognized. And idols are not wanted there, for | guilt is understood as the sole cause of pain in any form. No one is |
| Tx:30.61 | idols are nothing and nowhere and are purposeless. For only then can | guilt and sin be seen without a purpose and as meaningless. |
| Tx:30.62 | gently brought into awareness, to replace the goal of sin and | guilt. And all that stood between your image of yourself and what you |
| Tx:30.67 | never was a time an idol brought you anything except the “gift” of | guilt. Not one was bought except at cost of pain, nor was it ever |
| Tx:30.72 | While you regard it as a gift unwarranted, it must uphold the | guilt you would “forgive.” Unjustified forgiveness is attack. And |
| Tx:30.75 | And you have set a goal of partial pardon and a limited escape from | guilt for you. What can this be except a false forgiveness of |
| Tx:30.76 | one illusion must be part of truth. And you could not escape all | guilt, but only some of it. You must forgive God's Son entirely. Or |
| Tx:30.76 | idol there. Salvation rests on faith there cannot be some forms of | guilt which you cannot forgive. And so there cannot be appearances |
| Tx:30.78 | Nor will you know him if you think he does not merit the escape from | guilt in all its forms and all its consequence. There is no way to |
| Tx:30.80 | which can overcome the Will of God—the glad acknowledgment that | guilt has not succeeded by your wish to make illusions real. And what |

| Tx:31.59 | is the truth left free to enter in its sanctuary, clean and free of | guilt. There is no statement that the world is more afraid to hear |
| Tx:31.63 | eyes salvation has released from looking at the cost of keeping | guilt because they chose to let it go instead. |
| Tx:31.69 | No longer did you choose that you should be the sign of evil and of | guilt in him. And as you gave your trust to what is good in him, you |

| W1:39.2 | If | guilt is hell, what is its opposite? This is not difficult, surely. |
| W1:39.2 | is not due to the ambiguity of the question. But do you believe that | guilt is hell? If you did, you would see at once how direct and |
| W1:39.4 | now, or will be asked in the future. Your holiness means the end of | guilt and therefore the end of hell. Your holiness is the salvation |
| W1:39.13 | If | guilt is hell, what is its opposite? |
| W1:58.5 | [39] My holiness is my salvation. Since my holiness saves me from all | guilt, recognizing my holiness is recognizing my salvation. It is |

| W1:68.4 | of Him. It is as sure that those who hold grievances will suffer | guilt as it is certain that those who forgive will find peace. It is |
| W1:70.1 | to come from anywhere except from you. So, too, does the source of | guilt. You see neither guilt nor salvation as in your own mind and |

| W1:133.12 | is overlaid with many levels of obscurity. If you feel any | guilt about your choice, you have allowed the ego's goals to come |

| W1:153.13 | Father, left alone in terror in a fearful world made mad by sin and | guilt, be happy now. That game is over. Now a quiet time has come in |
| W1:153.13 | is over. Now a quiet time has come in which we put away the toys of | guilt and lock our quaint and childish thoughts of sin forever from |

| W1:158.7 | purity undimmed by errors, pitiful mistakes, and fearful thoughts of | guilt from dreams of sin. It sees no separation. And it looks on |

| W1:193.9 | of its forms. These are the words with which temptation ends and | guilt, abandoned, is revered no more. These are the words which end |
| W1:194.2 | of depression, thoughts of sin, and devastation brought about by | guilt. Accept today's idea, and you have released the world from all |

| M:17.7 | the fear of God most starkly represented. For in that thought has | guilt already raised madness to the throne of God Himself. And now |
| M:17.8 | condemnation, for they do not really have the power to give rise to | guilt. And so they can be overlooked and thus forgotten in the truest |

| Tx:12.3 | know who the Son of God is because it is blind. Yet let it perceive | guiltlessness anywhere, and it will try to destroy it because it is |
| Tx:12.6 | is the symbol of the ego. When it was confronted with the real | guiltlessness of God's Son, it did attempt to kill him, and the |
| Tx:12.6 | Son, it did attempt to kill him, and the reason it gave was that | guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the ego the ego is god, and |
| Tx:12.6 | guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the ego the ego is god, and | guiltlessness must be interpreted as the final guilt which fully |
| Tx:12.7 | are protecting yourself. And you do not realize that it is only your | guiltlessness which can protect you. |
| Tx:13.16 | See no one, then, as guilty, and you will affirm the truth of | guiltlessness unto yourself. In every condemnation that you offer the |
| Tx:13.32 | look upon him together and love him. For in our love of him is your | guiltlessness. But look upon yourself, and gladness and appreciation |
| Tx:13.65 | You are accustomed to using | guiltlessness merely to offset the pain of guilt and do not look upon |
| Tx:13.65 | look upon it as having value in itself. You believe that guilt and | guiltlessness are both of value, each representing an escape from |
| Tx:13.65 | as whole and therefore happy. Yet you are whole only in your | guiltlessness, and only in your guiltlessness can you be happy. There |
| Tx:13.65 | Yet you are whole only in your guiltlessness, and only in your | guiltlessness can you be happy. There is no conflict here. To wish |
| Tx:13.65 | in any way, in any form, will lose appreciation of the value of your | guiltlessness and push it from your sight. |
| Tx:13.66 | that you can make with guilt and escape the pain which only | guiltlessness allays. Learning is living here, as creating is being |
| Tx:13.67 | of the Atonement, not for its rejection. I would accept my | guiltlessness by making it manifest and sharing it. Let me bring |
| Tx:13.68 | The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy Spirit the decision for | guiltlessness. The power of decision is all that is yours. What you |
| Tx:13.69 | The miracle teaches you that you have chosen | guiltlessness, freedom, and joy. It is not a cause, but an effect. It |
| Tx:13.71 | The way to teach this simple lesson is merely this: | guiltlessness is invulnerability. Therefore, make your |
| Tx:13.85 | Then let Him teach you quietly how to perceive your | guiltlessness, which is already there. |
| Tx:13.86 | When you accept a brother's | guiltlessness, you will see the Atonement in him. For by proclaiming |
| Tx:13.86 | see what you sought. You will not see the symbol of your brother's | guiltlessness shining within him while you still believe it is not |
| Tx:13.86 | shining within him while you still believe it is not there. His | guiltlessness is your Atonement. Grant it to him, and you will see |
| Tx:13.87 | and part of Him, are more than merely guiltless. The state of | guiltlessness is only the condition in which what is not there has |
| Tx:14.1 | He is all around you. He cannot be known without His Son, whose | guiltlessness is the condition for knowing Him. Accepting His Son as |
| Tx:14.3 | are sinless. The Atonement was established as the means of restoring | guiltlessness to the mind which has denied it and thus denied Heaven |
| Tx:14.9 | The miracle acknowledges the | guiltlessness which must have been denied to produce need of healing. |
| Tx:14.13 | who teach with me. Our power comes not of us but of our Father. In | guiltlessness we know Him, as He knows us guiltless. I stand within |
| Tx:14.14 | my part in it. That is the symbol of the release from guilt by | guiltlessness. Whom you perceive as guilty, you would crucify. Yet |
| Tx:14.14 | Whom you perceive as guilty, you would crucify. Yet you restore | guiltlessness to whomever you see as guiltless. Crucifixion is always |
| Tx:14.14 | and by its condemnation, it would kill. The Holy Spirit sees only | guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would release from fear and |
| Tx:14.19 | yields to life simply because destruction is not true. The light of | guiltlessness shines guilt away because, when they are brought |
| Tx:14.19 | make the falsity of its opposite perfectly clear. Keep not guilt and | guiltlessness apart, for your belief that you can have them both is |
| Tx:14.67 | as he would make himself. The miracle brings the effects which only | guiltlessness can bring and thus establishes the fact that |
| Tx:14.67 | only guiltlessness can bring and thus establishes the fact that | guiltlessness must be. |
| Tx:14.68 | to guilt and committed so to remain, establish for yourself your | guiltlessness? That is impossible. But be sure that you are willing |
| Tx:27.89 | free of it. Its innocence does not demand your guilt, nor does your | guiltlessness rest on its sins. |
| W1:193.4 | has been excluded as the purpose of the lesson has been changed to | guiltlessness; the hatred has been rooted out by love. |
guilty (80) | ||
| Tx:4.61 | When you feel | guilty, know that the ego has indeed violated the laws of God, but |
| Tx:4.61 | ego has hurt, the Atonement cannot release you. As long as you feel | guilty, your ego is in command because only the ego can experience |
| Tx:5.61 | that if you identify with the ego, you must perceive yourself as | guilty. Whenever you respond to your ego, you will experience guilt |
| Tx:5.94 | sense because this implies guilt. If you allow yourself to feel | guilty, you will reinforce the error rather than allow it to be |
| Tx:5.96 | to decide otherwise, because I want to be at peace. I do not feel | guilty, because the Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences of my |
| Tx:6.20 | engage in upside-down thinking myself. If the Apostles had not felt | guilty, they never could have quoted me as saying, “I come not to |
| Tx:9.104 | Children as wholly sinless, it is blasphemous to perceive them as | guilty. If God knows His Children as wholly without pain, it is |
| Tx:11.75 | part of the Holy Spirit's teaching. For as long as you feel | guilty, you are listening to the voice of the ego, which tells you |
| Tx:11.85 | If you did not feel | guilty, you could not attack, for condemnation is the root of attack. |
| Tx:11.87 | not God's. Only the world of guilt could demand this, for only the | guilty could conceive of it. Adam's “sin” could have touched none of |
| Tx:11.88 | realize this until you accept the eternal fact that God's Son is not | guilty. He deserves only love because he has given only love. He |
| Tx:11.91 | you and will disappear. As long as you believe the Son of God is | guilty, you will walk along this carpet, believing that it leads to |
| Tx:11.99 | The ego teaches you to attack yourself because you are | guilty, and this must increase the guilt, for guilt is the result of |
| Tx:12.2 | have no idea that you are failing the Son of God by seeing him as | guilty. Believing you are no longer you, you do not realize that you |
| Tx:12.4 | to its definition of guilt. To the ego, the guiltless are | guilty. Those who do not attack are its “enemies” because, by not |
| Tx:13.11 | that hides the Father, for guilt is the attack upon His Son. The | guilty always condemn, and having done so, they will condemn, linking |
| Tx:13.11 | laws of punishment. And those who follow them believe that they are | guilty, and so they must condemn. Between the future and the past, |
| Tx:13.14 | see him not. When you condemn a brother, you are saying, “I who was | guilty choose to remain so.” You have denied his freedom, and by so |
| Tx:13.15 | that the guiltless Son of God can attack himself and make himself | guilty is insane. In any form, in anyone, believe this not. For sin |
| Tx:13.16 | See no one, then, as | guilty, and you will affirm the truth of guiltlessness unto yourself. |
| Tx:13.16 | impossible to condemn the Son of God in part. Those whom you see as | guilty become the witnesses to guilt in you, and you will see it |
| Tx:13.18 | remaining blind. For those who see their brothers in the dark, and | guilty in the dark in which they shroud them, are too afraid to look |
| Tx:13.22 | upon him or share it with him or perceive his own, you will feel | guilty. Nor will you find satisfaction and peace with him, because |
| Tx:13.23 | When you maintain that you are | guilty but the source lies in the past, you are not looking inward. |
| Tx:13.64 | interferes with all your thinking. The happy learner cannot feel | guilty about learning. This is so essential to learning that it |
| Tx:13.68 | which cannot be reconciled and cannot both be true. You are | guilty or guiltless, bound or free, happy or unhappy. |
| Tx:13.73 | the Atonement are invulnerable. But those who believe they are | guilty will respond to guilt because they think it is salvation and |
| Tx:13.79 | is to evaluate his Father and judge against Him. And you will feel | guilty for this imagined crime, which no one in this world or Heaven |
| Tx:13.89 | You will feel | guilty till you learn this. For in the end, whatever form it takes, |
| Tx:14.1 | guiltlessness is the condition for knowing Him. Accepting His Son as | guilty is denial of the Father so complete that knowledge is swept |
| Tx:14.4 | The guiltless and the | guilty are totally incapable of understanding one another. Each |
| Tx:14.14 | of the release from guilt by guiltlessness. Whom you perceive as | guilty, you would crucify. Yet you restore guiltlessness to whomever |
| Tx:14.14 | see as guiltless. Crucifixion is always the ego's aim. It sees as | guilty, and by its condemnation, it would kill. The Holy Spirit sees |
| Tx:15.3 | of Heaven but assures you that Heaven is not for you. How can the | guilty hope for Heaven? The belief in hell is inescapable to those |
| Tx:15.46 | it for salvation is to believe you are alone. To be alone is to be | guilty. For to experience yourself as alone is to deny the oneness of |
| Tx:15.66 | For the ego really believes that it can get and keep by making | guilty. This is its one attraction; an attraction so weak that it |
| Tx:15.70 | that no one could interpret direct attack as love. Yet to make | guilty is direct attack but does not seem to be. For the guilty |
| Tx:15.70 | Yet to make guilty is direct attack but does not seem to be. For the | guilty expect attack, and having asked for it, they are attracted to |
| Tx:15.72 | terms that it evaluates ideas as good or bad. What makes another | guilty and holds him through guilt is “good.” What releases him from |
| Tx:15.74 | All anger is nothing more than an attempt to make someone feel | guilty, and this attempt is the only basis which the ego accepts for |
| Tx:15.75 | a body is not communication. And if you think it is, you will feel | guilty about communication and will be afraid to hear the Holy |
| Tx:16.43 | they take, they are always an attack on the self to make the other | guilty. We have spoken of this before, but there are some aspects of |
| Tx:16.44 | Very simply, the attempt to make | guilty is always directed against God. For the ego would have you see |
| Tx:16.44 | against God. For the ego would have you see Him, and Him alone, as | guilty, leaving the Sonship open to attack and unprotected from it. |
| Tx:16.44 | together, and even those who believe that hate is sin merely feel | guilty and do not correct it. |
| Tx:16.49 | he does not want for one he thinks he would prefer. And he feels | guilty for the “sin” of taking and of giving nothing of value in |
| Tx:18.50 | your guilt to your bodies from your minds. Yet a body cannot be | guilty, for it can do nothing of itself. You who think you hate your |
| Tx:19.17 | conviction that minds, not bodies, can attack. And thus the mind is | guilty and will forever so remain unless a mind not part of it can |
| Tx:19.18 | attack is real and guilt is justified. It assumes the Son of God is | guilty and has thus succeeded in losing his innocence and making |
| Tx:19.19 | that would really change his reality in any way nor make him really | guilty. That is what sin would do, for such is its purpose. Yet for |
| Tx:19.65 | forget what never was. I ask for your forgiveness, for if you are | guilty, so must I be. But if I surmounted guilt and overcame the |
| Tx:19.73 | he but understood he sends them to himself? Who would accuse, make | guilty, and condemn himself? |
| Tx:21.60 | and still perceive the other innocent. Who looks upon himself as | guilty and sees a sinless world? And who can see a sinful world and |
| Tx:23.28 | inevitable loss the enemy must suffer to save yourself. Thus do the | guilty ones protest their “innocence.” Were they not forced into this |
| Tx:25.38 | And who, because he wishes to attack, can fail to think it must be | guilty to deserve the wish and leave him innocent? And who would see |
| Tx:26.14 | There is no such thing as partial justice. If the Son of God is | guilty, then is he condemned, and he deserves no mercy from the God |
| Tx:26.14 | God of justice. But ask not God to punish him because you find him | guilty and would have him die. God offers you the means to see his |
| Tx:26.59 | while cherishing attack. Its failure lies in that you still feel | guilty, though without understanding why. Effects are seen as |
| Tx:27.2 | be his own. But every pain you suffer do you see as proof that he is | guilty of attack. Thus would you make yourself to be the sign that he |
| Tx:27.23 | your victim, not your brother, different from you in that he is more | guilty, thus in need of your correction as the one more innocent than |
| Tx:27.83 | guilt for what you thought is being placed outside yourself and on a | guilty world which dreams your dreams and thinks your thoughts |
| Tx:27.90 | from you. Now need you but to learn that both of you are innocent or | guilty. The one thing that is impossible is that you be unlike each |
| Tx:30.73 | result of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who sees himself as | guilty can avoid the fear of God. But he is saved from this dilemma |
| Tx:30.94 | to prefer a dream allow uncertainty to enter here. Be not made | guilty and afraid when you are tempted by a dream of what he is. But |
| Tx:31.4 | established him. You who have taught yourselves the Son of God is | guilty, say not that you cannot learn the simple things salvation |
| Tx:31.7 | from its source. The certain outcome of the lesson that God's Son is | guilty is the world you see. It is a world of terror and despair. Nor |
| Tx:31.10 | The fear of God results as surely from the lesson that His Son is | guilty as God's love must be remembered when he learns his innocence. |
| Tx:31.27 | “yes” whenever you attack, for by attack do you assert that you are | guilty and must give as you deserve. And what can you deserve but |
| Tx:31.57 | will not perceive that you can interact but with yourself. To see a | guilty world is but the sign your learning has been guided by the |
| Tx:31.68 | has no opposite and cannot change. In this world's concepts are the | guilty “bad;” the “good” are innocent. And no one here but holds a |
| Tx:31.74 | on darkness and perceive the terrified imaginings that come from | guilty thoughts and concepts born of fear. And what you see is hell, |
| W1:46.11 | I cannot be | guilty because I am a Son of God. I have already been forgiven. No |
| W1:58.2 | of the real world come. Having forgiven, I no longer see myself as | guilty. I can accept the innocence that is the truth about me. Seen |
| W1:152.6 | can be sure. What can He know of the ephemeral, the sinful and the | guilty, the afraid, the suffering and lonely, and the mind that lives |

| Tx:5.52 | I heard one voice because I | had learned that learning is attained by teaching. I understood that |

| Tx:6.11 | “agony in the garden,” but I could not be angry with them because I | had learned I could not be abandoned. Peter swore he would never deny |
| Tx:6.13 | that this was only because of the projection of others, because I | had not harmed anyone and had healed many. We are still equal as |
| Tx:6.13 | of the projection of others, because I had not harmed anyone and | had healed many. We are still equal as learners, even though we need |
| Tx:6.19 | crucifixion entirely without anger, because their own sense of guilt | had made them angry. |
| Tx:6.20 | These are not like the several slips into impatience which I made. I | had learned the Atonement prayer, which I also came to teach, too |
| Tx:6.20 | too well to engage in upside-down thinking myself. If the Apostles | had not felt guilty, they never could have quoted me as saying, “I |
| Tx:6.21 | could they have described my reactions to Judas as they did if they | had really understood me. They would have realized I could not have |
| Tx:6.25 | that the separation was and is dissociation and also that, once it | had occurred, projection became its main defense or the device that |
| Tx:6.50 | and only this is real. You have chosen a sleep in which you have | had bad dreams, but the sleep is not real, and God calls you to |
| Tx:6.57 | but He teaches only to make you equal with Him. This is because you | had already taught wrongly, having believed what was not true. You |
| Tx:6.57 | did not believe in your own perfection. Could God teach you that you | had made a split mind, when He knows your mind only as whole? What |
| Tx:7.11 | of “the freedoms,” which would indeed have been freedom if man | had not chosen to fight for them. That is why they perceive “the |
| Tx:7.61 | true and would never have been called upon by the Holy Spirit if you | had not believed the untrue. You cannot deny that, when you believe |
| Tx:7.87 | The ego is therefore a confusion in identification which never | had a consistent model and never developed consistently. It is the |
| Tx:8.22 | understand why you have believed that when you met someone else, you | had thought that he was someone else. And every holy encounter in |
| Tx:8.44 | time. He was ashamed to return to his father because he thought he | had hurt him. Yet when he came home, the father welcomed him with |

| Tx:9.103 | refusing to accept what had been created for him and what he himself | had created in the Name of his Father. Heaven waits for his return, |

| Tx:11.76 | And would eternal life have been given me of the Father unless He | had also given it to you? When you learn to make me manifest, you |
| Tx:11.79 | and He knows what it is. You who knew have forgotten, and unless He | had given you a way to remember, you would have condemned yourselves |

| Tx:6.35 | Spirit tells you that even return is unnecessary because what never | happened cannot involve any problem. It does not follow, however, |
| Tx:9.24 | what happens in psychotherapy. Nothing real does. Nothing real has | happened to the unhealed healer, and he learns from his own teaching. |
| Tx:9.66 | Would you bother to reconcile what | happened in conflicting dreams, or would you dismiss both together if |
| Tx:10.24 | God wills for you, your joy would be complete! And what He wills has | happened, for it was always true. |

| Tx:16.14 | has happened is true. But can you really believe that all that has | happened, even though you do not understand it, has not happened? Yet |
| Tx:16.14 | all that has happened, even though you do not understand it, has not | happened? Yet this is your position. You would have perfect faith in |
| Tx:16.14 | what He taught you. For this acknowledgment means that what has | happened you do not understand but that you are willing to accept it |
| Tx:16.14 | not understand but that you are willing to accept it because it has | happened. |
| Tx:16.15 | And are you really safer in maintaining the unreality of what has | happened than you would be in joyously accepting it for what it is |
| Tx:17.59 | just seems to happen and makes no sense until it has already | happened. Then you look back at it and try to piece together what it |
| Tx:18.40 | on this. Everything God wills is not only possible but has already | happened. And that is why the past has gone. It never happened in |
| Tx:18.40 | has already happened. And that is why the past has gone. It never | happened in reality. Only in your minds, which thought it did, is its |
| Tx:22.7 | listened to what can never communicate at all. Think, then, what | happened. Denying what you are and firm in faith that you are |
| Tx:22.61 | justify is an attack upon your Father. And that is why it has not | happened nor could be real. You do not see that this is your attempt |
| Tx:28.18 | And as their “father,” you must be like them. Nothing at all has | happened but that you have put yourself to sleep and dreamed a dream |

| W1:99.2 | Truth and illusions both are equal now, for both have | happened. The impossible becomes the thing you need forgiveness for, |

| Tx:19.66 | of the end of guilt, and all the world will answer. Think of your | happiness as everyone offers you witness of the end of sin and shows |
| Tx:19.68 | wanderer in search of peace? Would you invest your hope of peace and | happiness in what must fail? |

| Tx:21.87 | The constancy of | happiness has no exceptions—no change of any kind. It is unshakable |
| Tx:21.88 | Reason will tell you that you cannot ask for | happiness inconstantly. For if what you desire you receive and |
| Tx:21.88 | for happiness inconstantly. For if what you desire you receive and | happiness is constant, then you need ask for it but once to have it |
| Tx:21.89 | You who complete God's Will and are His | happiness, whose will is powerful as His, a power that is not lost in |

| Tx:23.54 | complete, and wholly shared. They know it is impossible their | happiness could ever suffer change of any kind. Perhaps you think the |
| Tx:24.58 | that He has given you a part of Him to save from pain and give you | happiness. And never doubt but that your specialness will disappear |
| Tx:25.20 | ray of darkness can be seen by those who will to make their Father's | happiness complete and theirs along with His. The gratitude of God |
| Tx:25.28 | is but another altar where he can with equal ease and far more | happiness bestow forgiveness. And he will reinterpret all temptation |
| Tx:26.5 | to add a limitless supply to every meager scrap and tiny crumb of | happiness that you allot yourself. |
| Tx:26.76 | Be not content with future | happiness. It has no meaning and is not your just reward. For you |

| Tx:28.34 | Count, then, the silver miracles and golden dreams of | happiness as all the treasures you would keep within the storehouse |
| Tx:28.46 | to have the “benefits” of sickness when he has received the simple | happiness of health? What God has given cannot be a loss, and what is |
| Tx:28.66 | Your home is built upon your brother's health, upon his | happiness, his sinlessness, and everything his Father promised him. |
| Tx:29.14 | with Him. And nowhere else His gifts of peace and joy and all the | happiness His Presence brings can be obtained. For they are where He |
| Tx:29.20 | is. And he must save who would be saved. On saving you depends his | happiness. For who is savior but the one who gives salvation? Thus he |
| Tx:29.30 | to you. Do not ascribe a role to him which you imagine would bring | happiness to you. And do not try to hurt him when he fails to take |
| Tx:29.42 | of God's Son! How free from fear, how filled with blessing and with | happiness! And what a joyous thing it is to dwell a little while in |
| Tx:29.43 | His place. There is no other answer you can substitute and find the | happiness His answer brings. Seek not outside yourself. For all your |
| Tx:29.43 | that you be right or happy? Be you glad that you are told where | happiness abides and seek no longer elsewhere. You will fail. But it |
| Tx:29.44 | dream that there is something outside of himself that will bring | happiness and peace to him. If everything is in him, this cannot be |
| Tx:29.51 | of yourself. Seek not outside your Father for your hope. For hope of | happiness is not despair. |
| Tx:30.21 | is not so. Until this point is reached, you will believe your | happiness depends on being right. But this much reason have you now |
| Tx:30.30 | with and how the friend whose counsel you have sought perceives your | happiness. You always ask advice before you can decide on anything. |
| Tx:30.32 | It needs but two who would have | happiness this day to promise it to all the world. It needs but two |
| Tx:30.38 | limits. They are the belief that there are forms which will bring | happiness and that, by limiting, is all attained. It is as if you |
| Tx:30.58 | of hope because its only purpose is to be a place where hope of | happiness can be fulfilled. And no one stands outside this hope |
| Tx:30.59 | because he is united in his purpose with himself. There is a hope of | happiness in him so sure and constant he can barely stay and wait a |
| Tx:30.65 | Give up the world! But not to sacrifice. You never wanted it. What | happiness have you sought here that did not bring you pain? What |
| Tx:30.65 | has no cost. It is your sacred right, and what you pay for is not | happiness. Be speeded on your way by honesty, and let not your |
| Tx:31.7 | you see. It is a world of terror and despair. Nor is there hope of | happiness in it. There is no plan for safety you can make that ever |
| Tx:31.26 | that occurs. Learn this and learn it well, for it is here delay of | happiness is shortened by a span of time you cannot realize. You |
| Tx:31.36 | learn. For from this lowest point will learning lead to heights of | happiness in which you see the purpose of the lesson shining clear, |
| Tx:31.39 | Think not that | happiness is ever found by following a road away from it. This makes |
| W1:28.5 | you—something beautiful and clean and of infinite value, full of | happiness and hope. Hidden under all your ideas about it is its real |
| W1:62.4 | as those who seem to be far away in space and time to share this | happiness with you. |
| W1:62.7 | Then devote a minute or two to considering your function and the | happiness and release it will bring you. |
| W1:63.1 | you! What purpose could you have that would bring you greater | happiness? |
| W1:64.4 | is because your function is to be happy by using the means by which | happiness becomes inevitable. |
| W1:64.6 | remembering that they are really very simple. Each one will lead to | happiness or unhappiness. Can such a simple decision really be |
| W1:66.1 | on the connection between fulfilling your function and achieving | happiness. This is because you do not really see the connection. Yet |
| W1:66.2 | So does it do constant battle with the Holy Spirit about what your | happiness is. It is not a two-way battle. The ego attacks and the |
| W1:66.2 | respond. He knows what your function is. He knows that it is your | happiness. |
| W1:66.3 | about what it is. We will not become hopelessly involved in defining | happiness and determining the means for achieving it. We will not |
| W1:66.4 | a very real connection between the function God gave you and your | happiness, but that they are actually identical. God gives you only |
| W1:66.4 | happiness, but that they are actually identical. God gives you only | happiness. Therefore the function He gave you must be happiness, even |
| W1:66.4 | gives you only happiness. Therefore the function He gave you must be | happiness, even if it appears to be different. Today's exercises are |
| W1:66.6 | God gives me only | happiness. He has given my function to me. Therefore my function must |
| W1:66.6 | He has given my function to me. Therefore my function must be | happiness. |
| W1:66.8 | The first premise is that God gives you only | happiness. This could be false, of course, but in order to be false |
| W1:66.8 | God as something He is not. Love cannot give evil, and what is not | happiness is evil. God cannot give what He does not have, and He |
| W1:66.8 | have, and He cannot have what He is not. Unless God gives you only | happiness, He must be evil. And it is this definition of Him which |
| W1:66.12 | fairly and consider also whether it was ever reasonable to expect | happiness from anything the ego ever proposed. Yet the ego is the |
| W1:66.15 | My | happiness and function are one because God has given me both. |
| W1:69.9 | possible in view of the importance of today's idea to you and your | happiness, remind yourself that your grievances are hiding the light |
| W1:73.7 | Suffering is not | happiness, and it is happiness you really want. Such is your will in |
| W1:73.7 | Suffering is not happiness, and it is | happiness you really want. Such is your will in truth. And so |
| W1:83.5 | [66] My | happiness and my function are one. All things that come from God are |
| W1:83.5 | Oneness and must be received as one. Fulfilling my function is my | happiness because both come from the same Source. And I must learn to |
| W1:83.5 | And I must learn to recognize what makes me happy if I would find | happiness. |
| W1:83.7 | This cannot separate my | happiness from my function. The oneness of my happiness and my |
| W1:83.7 | This cannot separate my happiness from my function. The oneness of my | happiness and my function remains wholly unaffected by this. Nothing, |
| W1:83.7 | by this. Nothing, including this, can justify the illusion of | happiness apart from my function. |
| W1:92.6 | Truth is a savior and can only will for | happiness and peace for everyone. It gives its strength to everyone |
| W1:95.19 | Do not forget today. We need your help, your little part in bringing | happiness to all the world. And Heaven looks to you in confidence |
| W1:96.5 | with itself. Without its function then, it has no peace, and | happiness is alien to its thoughts. |
| W1:98.5 | worth five minutes of your time each hour to be able to accept the | happiness that God has given you? Is it not worth five minutes hourly |
| W1:98.11 | you to understand your special function. He will open up the way to | happiness, and peace and trust will be His gifts, His answer to your |
| W1:100.2 | God's Will for you is perfect | happiness. Why should you choose to go against His Will? The part |
| W1:100.2 | to what He wills. This part is as essential to His plan as to your | happiness. Your joy must be complete to let His plan be understood by |
| W1:100.4 | heals sorrow and despair. They are the proof that God wills perfect | happiness for all who will accept their Father's gifts as theirs. |
| W1:100.5 | to you by God. Thus do you fail to show the world how great the | happiness He wills for you. And so you do not recognize that it is |
| W1:100.7 | You are God's messenger today. You bring His | happiness to all you look upon, His peace to everyone who looks on |
| W1:100.7 | for this today in our five minute practice periods by feeling | happiness arise in us according to our Father's Will and ours. |
| W1:101.1 | Today we will continue with the theme of | happiness. This is a key idea in understanding what salvation means. |
| W1:101.2 | If sin is real then | happiness must be illusion, for they cannot both be true. The sinful |
| W1:101.6 | it is the basis for today's idea. God's Will for you is perfect | happiness because there is no sin, and suffering is causeless. Joy is |
| W1:101.8 | God's Will for me is perfect | happiness. There is no sin; it has no consequence. |
| W1:101.11 | God's Will for me is perfect | happiness. This is the truth because there is no sin. |
| W1:102.3 | longer practice periods to exercises planned to help you reach the | happiness God's Will has placed in you. Here is your home, and here |
| W1:102.5 | I share God's Will for | happiness for me, and I accept it as my function now. |
| W1:102.7 | Be happy, for your only function here is | happiness. You have no need to be less loving to God's Son than He |
| W1:102.7 | pause frequently today to tell yourself that you have now accepted | happiness as your one function. And be sure that you are joining with |
| W1:103.1 | Happiness is an attribute of love. It cannot be apart from it, nor | |
| W1:103.2 | This strange belief would limit | happiness by redefining love as limited and introducing opposition in |
| W1:103.4 | God, being Love, is also | happiness. To fear Him is to be afraid of joy. |
| W1:103.5 | which corrects the false belief that God is fear. It also emphasizes | happiness belongs to you because of what He is. |
| W1:103.6 | placed within your mind each waking hour today. Then welcome all the | happiness it brings, as truth replaces fear, and joy becomes what you |
| W1:103.7 | God, being Love, is also | happiness. And it is happiness I seek today. I cannot fail because I |
| W1:103.7 | God, being Love, is also happiness. And it is | happiness I seek today. I cannot fail because I seek the truth. |
| W1:106.3 | truth. Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who holds your | happiness within His hand, held out to you in welcome and in love. |
| W1:109.1 | all the turmoil born of clashing dreams. We ask for safety and for | happiness, although we seem to look on danger and on sorrow. And we |
| W1:109.2 | you the rest and quiet, peace and stillness, and the safety and the | happiness you seek. “I rest in God.” This thought has power to wake |
| W1:116.2 | [101] God's Will for me is perfect | happiness. God's Will is perfect happiness for me. And I can suffer |
| W1:116.2 | [101] God's Will for me is perfect happiness. God's Will is perfect | happiness for me. And I can suffer but from the belief there is |
| W1:116.3 | [102] I share God's Will for | happiness for me. I share my Father's Will for me, His Son. What He |
| W1:116.5 | God's Will for me is perfect | happiness. |
| W1:116.7 | I share God's Will for | happiness for me. |
| W1:117.2 | [103] God, being Love, is also | happiness. Let me remember love is happiness and nothing else brings |
| W1:117.2 | [103] God, being Love, is also happiness. Let me remember love is | happiness and nothing else brings joy. And so I choose to entertain |
| W1:117.5 | God, being Love, is also | happiness. |
| W1:118.2 | joy in glad exchange for all the substitutes which I have made for | happiness and peace. |
| W1:121.8 | forgive. If you are willing, you can learn today to take the key to | happiness and use it on your own behalf. We will devote ten minutes |
| W1:121.13 | not forget throughout the day the role forgiveness plays in bringing | happiness to every unforgiving mind, with yours among them. Every |
| W1:121.14 | Forgiveness is the key to | happiness. I will awaken from the dream that I am mortal, fallible, |
| W1:122.1 | cannot give? Do you want peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do you want | happiness, a quiet mind, a certainty of purpose, and a sense of worth |
| W1:122.2 | and attack. And when you wake again, it offers you another day of | happiness and peace. All this forgiveness offers you, and more. |
| W1:122.11 | Sink into | happiness as you begin these practice periods, for they hold out the |
| W1:124.3 | equal love in which we were created, smiles on us and offers us the | happiness we gave. Today we will not doubt His Love for us nor |
| W1:133.2 | buy, to eminence as valued by the world, you ask for sorrow, not for | happiness. This course does not attempt to take from you the little |
| W1:135.21 | to be its own. And it will lead you on in ways appointed for your | happiness according to the ancient plan begun when time was born. |
| W1:135.28 | believe would benefit you most. For you cannot conceive of all the | happiness that comes to you without your planning. Learn today. And |
| W1:136.13 | plan defenses which would alter it. Truth merely wants to give you | happiness, for such its purpose is. Perhaps it sighs a little when |
| W1:139.8 | us not forget the goal that we accepted. It is more than just our | happiness alone we came to gain. What we accept as what we are |
| W1:R4.11 | them be the messages they are. We need no more than this to give us | happiness and rest and endless quiet, perfect certainty, and all our |
| W1:R4.12 | the thought that made the day a special time of blessing and of | happiness for us and through our faithfulness restored the world from |
| W1:141.1 | [121] Forgiveness is the key to | happiness. |
| W1:151.14 | them back as miracles which joyously proclaim the wholeness and the | happiness God wills His Son as proof of His eternal Love. And as each |
| W1:153.8 | the endless joy our function offers us. We would not let our | happiness slip by because a senseless fragment of a dream happened to |
| W1:153.10 | be with them. Who is holier than they? Who could be surer that his | happiness is fully guaranteed? And who could be more mightily |
| W1:153.12 | teach them that the game of fear is gone. His game instructs in | happiness because there is no loser. Everyone who plays must win, and |
| W1:155.7 | lead your brothers from the ways of death and set them on the way to | happiness. Their suffering is but illusion. Yet they need a guide to |
| W1:159.6 | with perfect certainty for everything that can contribute to your | happiness. All are laid here already. All can be received but for the |
| W1:162.2 | Here is the Word by which the Son became His Father's | happiness, His Love, and His completion. Here creation is proclaimed |
| W1:165.1 | What but your thoughts of misery and death obscure the perfect | happiness and the Eternal Life your Father wills for you? And what |
| W1:165.2 | soft your resting place and smooth your way, lighting your mind with | happiness and love. Eternity and everlasting life shine in your mind |
| W1:166.1 | without exception, holding nothing back that can contribute to your | happiness. And yet unless your will is one with His, His gifts are |
| W1:166.13 | is another way for them to walk. Teach them by showing them the | happiness that comes to those who feel the touch of Christ and |
| W1:166.15 | everyone. God has entrusted all His gifts to you. Be witness in your | happiness to how transformed the mind becomes which chooses to accept |
| W1:185.8 | Consider but what you believe will comfort you and bring you | happiness. But be you not dismayed by lingering illusions, for their |
| W1:191.5 | he gives to everyone in gratitude to Him Who pointed out the way to | happiness that changed his whole perception of the world. |
| W1:193.1 | His Will extends to what He does not understand in that He wills the | happiness His Son inherited of Him be undisturbed, eternal and |
| W1:195.2 | all pain is healed and suffering replaced with laughter and with | happiness. Nor could the even partly sane refuse to take the steps |
| W1:199.8 | practice brings even to it. And God Himself extends His Love and | happiness each time you say: |
| W1:200.2 | which each one must come at last, to lay aside all hope of finding | happiness where there is none, of being saved by what can only hurt, |
| W1:200.3 | Yet you can ask as easily for love, for | happiness, and for eternal life in peace that has no ending. Ask for |
| W1:200.4 | Come home. You have not found your | happiness in foreign places and in alien forms which have no meaning |
| W2:235.1 | disappear. I need but keep in mind my Father's Will for me is only | happiness to find that only happiness has come to me. And I need but |
| W2:235.1 | in mind my Father's Will for me is only happiness to find that only | happiness has come to me. And I need but remember that His Love |
| W2:245.1 | suffer pain or grieve for loss or think they are bereft of hope and | happiness. Send them to me, my Father. Let me bring Your peace with |
| W2:WIB.3 | The body is a dream. Like other dreams, it sometimes seems to picture | happiness but can quite suddenly revert to fear, where every dream is |
| W2:272.1 | by Your will and mine. Can dreams content me? Can illusions bring me | happiness? What but Your memory can satisfy Your Son? I will accept |
| W2:281.1 | and that he is as You created him. Your Thoughts can only bring me | happiness. If ever I am sad or hurt or ill, I have forgotten what You |
| W2:287.1 | Where would I go but Heaven? What could be a substitute for | happiness? What gift could I prefer before the peace of God? What |
| W2:290.1 | Unless I look upon what is not there, my present | happiness is all I see. Eyes that begin to open see at last. And I |
| W2:290.1 | I made is real an instant longer. This the day I seek my present | happiness and look on nothing else except the thing I seek. |
| W2:290.2 | I ask have You already given me, and I am sure that I will see my | happiness today. |
| W2:307.1 | it is senseless and will cause me pain. Your will alone can bring me | happiness, and only Yours exists. If I would have what only You can |
| W2:WILJ.3 | fear complete release from suffering, return to peace, security and | happiness, and union with your own Identity. |
| W2:337.1 | all thought of loss, complete deliverance from suffering. And only | happiness can be my state, for only happiness is given me. What must |
| W2:337.1 | from suffering. And only happiness can be my state, for only | happiness is given me. What must I do to know all this is mine? I |
| W2:339.1 | pain. But he can think that pain is pleasure. No one would avoid his | happiness. But he can think that joy is painful, threatening, and |
| M:20.4 | up again. But you will learn, as you remember even faintly now what | happiness was yours without it, that you must have taken it again as |
happy (144) | ||
| Tx:5.1 | To heal is to make | happy. I have told you before to think how many opportunities you |
| Tx:5.2 | joy of responding whole-heartedly. To be whole-hearted, you must be | happy. If fear and love cannot coexist and if it is impossible to be |
| Tx:7.108 | can he adapt it to him. There is no point in trying. A Son of God is | happy only when he knows he is with God. That is the only environment |
| Tx:7.109 | him for his giving? That is the only environment in which you can be | happy. You cannot make it any more than you can make yourselves. It |
| Tx:8.4 | have taught you the wrong things simply because it has not made you | happy. On this basis alone, its value should be questioned. |
| Tx:8.101 | success? The belief that you must have the impossible in order to be | happy is totally at variance with the principle of creation. God |
| Tx:9.42 | are? If you are willing to see yourself as unloving, you will not be | happy. You are condemning yourself and must therefore regard yourself |
| Tx:10.14 | You cannot be | happy unless you do what you will truly, and you cannot change this |
| Tx:12.67 | you made for what you want is the exchange of nightmares for the | happy dreams of love. In these lie your true perceptions, for the |
| Tx:13.54 | The Holy Spirit needs a | happy learner in whom His mission can be happily accomplished. You |
| Tx:13.54 | to misery must first recognize that you are miserable and not | happy. The Holy Spirit cannot teach without this contrast, for you |
| Tx:13.54 | can never do, believing that unless you learn it, you will not be | happy. You do not realize that the foundation on which this most |
| Tx:13.59 | what you have made, they see in you more than you see. They will be | happy learners of the lesson which this light brings to them because |
| Tx:13.60 | so you learn that what seemed hardest was the easiest. Learn to be | happy learners. You will never learn how to make nothing everything. |
| Tx:13.61 | If you would be a | happy learner, you must give everything that you have learned over to |
| Tx:13.62 | The | happy learner meets the conditions of learning here, as he also meets |
| Tx:13.64 | the same as that which interferes with all your thinking. The | happy learner cannot feel guilty about learning. This is so essential |
| Tx:13.65 | for without both, you do not see yourselves as whole and therefore | happy. Yet you are whole only in your guiltlessness, and only in your |
| Tx:13.65 | in your guiltlessness, and only in your guiltlessness can you be | happy. There is no conflict here. To wish for guilt in any way, in |
| Tx:13.66 | you are deciding against your happiness and will not learn how to be | happy. Say therefore to yourself gently, but with the conviction born |
| Tx:13.68 | and cannot both be true. You are guilty or guiltless, bound or free, | happy or unhappy. |
| Tx:13.69 | is receiving. Either it is a penalty from which you suffer or the | happy purchase of a treasure to hold dear. |
| Tx:13.70 | of learning that darkness has no power over the Son of God is the | happy lesson the Holy Spirit teaches and would have you teach with |
| Tx:13.72 | without imposing on himself the penalty of guilt in place of all the | happy teaching the Holy Spirit would gladly offer him. |
| Tx:13.82 | Unlearn isolation through His loving guidance and learn of all the | happy communication that you have thrown away but could not lose. |
| Tx:14.6 | holds in trust for you. He would teach you nothing except how to be | happy. |
| Tx:14.7 | of guilt in all its forms. To accuse is not to understand. The | happy learners of the Atonement become the teachers of the innocence |
| Tx:16.19 | love than to accept this and be glad. For love asks only that you be | happy and will give you everything that makes for happiness. You have |
| Tx:17.27 | God established His relationship with you to make you | happy, and nothing you do which does not share His purpose can be |
| Tx:17.27 | with you, the function of relationships became forever “to make | happy.” And nothing else. To fulfill this function, you relate to |
| Tx:17.28 | In this world it is impossible to create, yet it is possible to make | happy. We have said repeatedly that the Holy Spirit would not deprive |
| Tx:17.28 | them by God. The function you have given them is clearly not to make | happy. But the holy relationship shares God's purpose, rather than |
| Tx:17.43 | hymn of hate in praise of its maker, so is the holy relationship a | happy song of praise to the Redeemer of relationships. |
| Tx:17.46 | course except to change the relationship to fit the goal. Until this | happy solution is seen and accepted as the only way out of the |
| Tx:18.20 | before dreams disappear, is that your dreams of fear are changed to | happy dreams. That is what the Holy Spirit does in your special |
| Tx:18.21 | in everyone blessed through your holy relationship. It will be a | happy dream, and one which you will share with all who come within |
| Tx:18.23 | the Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world—the world of | happy dreams from which awaking is so easy and so natural. For as |
| Tx:18.41 | are all but aspects of the plan to change your dreams of fear to | happy dreams from which you waken easily to knowledge. Put yourself |
| Tx:18.44 | Happy dreams come true, not because they are dreams, but only because | |
| Tx:18.44 | come true, not because they are dreams, but only because they are | happy. And so they must be loving. Their message is, “Thy will be |
| Tx:18.45 | the Holy Spirit, Who has a special function here. It will become the | happy dream through which He can spread joy to thousands on thousands |
| Tx:18.67 | goal is finally achieved by anyone, it always comes with just one | happy realization: “I need do nothing.” |
| Tx:18.83 | wall of dust still stands between you. Blow on it lightly and with | happy laughter, and it will fall away. And walk into the garden love |
| Tx:19.45 | There is a hush in Heaven, a | happy expectancy, a little pause of gladness in acknowledgment of the |
| Tx:19.53 | of love escape their notice. And they will return with all the | happy things they found, to share them lovingly with you. Be not |
| Tx:19.58 | To think you could be satisfied and | happy with so little is to hurt yourself, and to limit the happiness |
| Tx:19.105 | upon him and he accepted as his own, and toss it lightly and with | happy laughter away from him. Press it not like thorns against his |
| Tx:20.20 | wondered what the world is really like; how it would look through | happy eyes? The world you see is but a judgment on yourself. It is |
| Tx:20.24 | relationship and adjusted it according to its insane answer. How | happy did it make you? Did you meet with joy to bless the Son of God |
| Tx:20.47 | has lost its meaning. They live in secrecy, hating the sunlight and | happy in the body's darkness where they can hide and keep their |
| Tx:20.68 | And as its holy purpose was not made by you, the means by which its | happy end is yours is also not of you. Rejoice in what is yours but |
| Tx:20.76 | the means by which the Holy Spirit translates your nightmares into | happy dreams; your wild hallucinations that show you all the fearful |
| Tx:21.5 | it would, the learning of it would be no problem. You are not | happy learners yet because you still remain uncertain that vision |
| Tx:21.17 | of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided sin was your goal. Be | happy, and you gave the power of decision to Him Who must decide for |
| Tx:22.41 | Him! And think how beautiful will each of you look to the other! How | happy you will be to be together after such a long and lonely journey |
| Tx:22.64 | this mean except your minds are one? Look not with fear upon this | happy fact and think not that it lays a heavy burden on you. For when |
| Tx:23.4 | There can be no attraction of guilt in innocence. Think what a | happy world you walk with truth beside you! Do not give up this world |
| Tx:23.6 | part of Heaven. How beautiful it is to walk clean and redeemed and | happy through a world in bitter need of the redemption that your |
| Tx:25.32 | and they rejoice that this is so, seeing their safety in this | happy fact. Their joy is in the innocence they see. And thus they |
| Tx:26.29 | tiny spot of sin that stands between you still is holding back the | happy opening of Heaven's gate. How little is the hindrance which |
| Tx:26.31 | all. Nothing you undertake with certain purpose and high resolve and | happy confidence, holding each other's hand and keeping step to |
| Tx:26.90 | The world grows dim and threatening, and not a trace of all the | happy sparkle that salvation brought can you perceive to lighten up |
| Tx:27.35 | to interfere with power unlimited and single thoughts, complete and | happy, without opposite. You do not know the peace of power which |
| Tx:27.70 | is yours to make between a sleeping death and dreams of evil or a | happy wakening and joy of life. What could you choose between but |
| Tx:27.74 | up your sleeping face. The sleep is peaceful now, for these are | happy dreams. |
| Tx:28.7 | with their loveliness. The ancient new ideas they bring will be the | happy consequences of a cause so ancient that it far exceeds the span |
| Tx:28.20 | is no one asked to be the victim and the sufferer. These are the | happy dreams the miracle exchanges for your own. It does not ask you |
| Tx:28.21 | sleeps. He sees illusions of himself as sick or well, depressed or | happy, but without a stable cause with guaranteed effects. |
| Tx:29.8 | body is not real. And there are overtones of seeming fear around the | happy message, “God is love.” |
| Tx:29.29 | How | happy would your dreams become if you were not the one who gave the |
| Tx:29.34 | quiet that surrounds you dwells in him, and from this quiet come the | happy dreams in which your hands are joined in innocence. These are |
| Tx:29.42 | And what a joyous thing it is to dwell a little while in such a | happy place! Nor can it be forgot in such a world, it is a little |
| Tx:29.43 | found. What if it is not there? Do you prefer that you be right or | happy? Be you glad that you are told where happiness abides and seek |
| Tx:29.48 | dream that you must find what is outside yourself to be complete and | happy. It is vain to worship idols in the hope of peace. God dwells |
| Tx:30.14 | when once you have decided by yourself the rules which promise you a | happy day. Yet this decision still can be undone by simple methods |
| Tx:30.28 | It must be clear that it is easier to have a | happy day if you prevent unhappiness from entering at all. But this |
| Tx:30.29 | We said you can begin a | happy day with the determination not to make decisions by yourself. |
| Tx:30.32 | Your judgment has been lifted from the world by your decision for a | happy day. And as you have received, so must you give. |
| Tx:30.55 | Salvation is a paradox indeed! What could it be except a | happy dream? It asks you but that you forgive all things that no one |
| Tx:30.56 | forgiveness be the substitute for fear. Such is the only rule for | happy dreams. The gap is emptied of the toys of fear, and then its |
| Tx:30.68 | hand you hold. Look forward, then, and walk in confidence with | happy hearts that beat in hope and do not pound in fear. |
| Tx:30.90 | by changing views of him which you perceive as his reality. The | happy dream about him takes the form of the appearance of his perfect |
| Tx:30.93 | there to heal all things that change and offer them to you to see in | happy form, devoid of fear. It will be given you to look upon your |
| Tx:31.58 | the world is loosening its grasp upon your mind. And be you sure and | happy in the confidence that it will go at last and leave your mind |
| Tx:31.67 | you? So the world is seen as stable, fully worthy of your trust; a | happy place to rest in for a while, where nothing need be feared but |
| Tx:31.72 | of him. And all this shift requires is that you be willing that this | happy change occur. No more than this is asked. On its behalf, |
| Tx:31.89 | Learn then the | happy habit of response to all temptation to perceive yourself as |
| W1:12.8 | truth be written upon it for you, it would make you indescribably | happy. But because it is meaningless, you are impelled to write upon |
| W1:17.8 | as yet of any thoughts which are really true and therefore really | happy. |
| W1:20.2 | to exert force or pressure. You want salvation. You want to be | happy. You want peace. You do not have them now because your mind is |
| W1:22.2 | Is it not joyous news to hear that it is not real? Is it not a | happy discovery to find that you can escape? You made what you would |
| W1:24.1 | which arises do you realize the outcome that would make you | happy. Therefore you have no guide to appropriate action and no way |
| W1:40.1 | Today we will begin to assert some of the | happy things to which you are entitled, being what you are. No long |
| W1:40.4 | I am blessed as a Son of God. I am | happy, peaceful, loving, and contented. |
| W1:59.5 | that God is the Light in which I see. Let me welcome vision and the | happy world it will show me. |
| W1:62.4 | as possible throughout the day. It will help to make the day as | happy for you as God wants you to be. And it will help those around |
| W1:62.6 | as the light of the world. I would fulfill my function that I may be | happy. |
| W1:62.9 | I would remember this because I want to be | happy. |
| W1:63.3 | Recognizing the importance of this function, we will be | happy to remember it very often today. We will begin the day by |
| W1:64.4 | is you. Only by fulfilling the function given you by God will you be | happy. That is because your function is to be happy by using the |
| W1:64.4 | you by God will you be happy. That is because your function is to be | happy by using the means by which happiness becomes inevitable. |
| W1:64.5 | not to fulfill your function, you are really choosing whether to be | happy or not. Let us remember this today. Let us remind ourselves of |
| W1:64.8 | Let me not try to substitute mine for God's. Let me forgive and be | happy. |
| W1:66.11 | find salvation under the ego's guidance. Did you find it? Were you | happy? Did they bring you peace? |
| W1:73.9 | against it. Therefore we undertake the exercises for today in | happy confidence, certain that we will find what it is your will to |
| W1:75.2 | Today we celebrate the | happy ending to your long dream of disaster. There are no dark dreams |
| W1:75.3 | Our exercises for today will be | happy ones in which we offer thanks for the passing of the old and |
| W1:83.5 | from the same Source. And I must learn to recognize what makes me | happy if I would find happiness. |
| W1:86.5 | in this insane way. I would accept God's plan for salvation and be | happy. |
| W1:97.8 | Begin these | happy exercises with the words the Holy Spirit speaks to you, and let |
| W1:98.2 | How | happy to be certain! All our doubts we lay aside today and take our |
| W1:98.12 | Throughout the hour, let your time be spent in | happy preparation for the next five minutes you will spend again with |
| W1:98.12 | each time you do so, you have let your mind be readied for the | happy time to come. |
| W1:98.13 | earthly tasks, all little thoughts and limited ideas, and spend a | happy time again with Him. Tell Him once more that you accept the |
| W1:100.2 | function in your shining face and hear God calling to them in your | happy laugh. |
| W1:100.6 | world is thus deprived of joy along with you. God asks that you be | happy so the world can see how much He loves His Son and wills no |
| W1:100.7 | His peace to everyone who looks on you and sees His message in your | happy face. We will prepare ourselves for this today in our five |
| W1:100.8 | the thought today's idea contains. Then realize your part is to be | happy. Only this is asked of you or anyone who wants to take his |
| W1:102.2 | You have been slave to nothing. Be you free today to join the | happy Will of God. |
| W1:102.7 | Be | happy, for your only function here is happiness. You have no need to |
| W1:106.4 | He would speak to you. He comes with miracles a thousand times as | happy and as wonderful as those you ever dreamt or wished for in your |

| W1:140.3 | The | happy dreams the Holy Spirit brings are different from the dreaming |
| W1:140.3 | another form of sleep, so that the dreamer dreams another dream. His | happy dreams are heralds of the dawn of truth upon the mind. They |
| W1:153.12 | Salvation can be thought of as a game that | happy children play. It was designed by One Who loves His children, |
| W1:153.13 | alone in terror in a fearful world made mad by sin and guilt, be | happy now. That game is over. Now a quiet time has come in which we |

| W1:167.2 | is the one idea which underlies all feelings that are not supremely | happy. It is the alarm to which you give response of any kind that is |

| W2:I.2 | time with Him each morning and at night, as long as makes us | happy. We will not consider time a matter of duration now. We use as |

| Tx:24.20 | love. Your brother's specialness and yours are enemies and bound in | hate to kill each other and deny they are the same. Yet it is not |

| Tx:24.65 | in better style or weave a frame of loveliness around your | hate, and you condemn it to decay and death. And if you see this |
| Tx:24.71 | cannot conceive of you apart from it. You brand it sinful, and you | hate its acts, judging it evil. Yet your specialness whispers, “Here |

| Tx:27.26 | who hated it and hates it still. This is your brother, focus of your | hate, unworthy to be part of you and thus outside yourself—the |

| Tx:28.7 | he can learn and can preserve a better one? When ancient memories of | hate appear, remember that their cause is gone. And so you cannot |
| Tx:28.23 | the motives he has given it have they adopted as their own. And | hate it for the vengeance it would offer them. It is their vengeance |
| Tx:28.25 | they did not make it. And you can accept the role of maker of their | hate, because you see that it has no effects. Now are you freed from |

| Tx:28.56 | to seek for separation and to be a separate thing. And then you | hate it, not for what it is, but for the uses you have made of it. |
| Tx:28.56 | have made of it. You shrink from what it sees and what it hears and | hate its frailty and littleness. And you despise its acts but not |
| Tx:28.57 | mind you call your own and all the rest of what is really yours. You | hate it, yet you think it is your self and that without it would your |
| Tx:29.1 | impossible. For it would mean His love could harbor just a hint of | hate; His gentleness turn sometimes to attack; and His eternal |
| Tx:29.2 | seen. For love is treacherous to those who fear, since fear and | hate can never be apart. No one who hates but is afraid of love and |
| Tx:29.2 | it is he knows not what love means. He fears to love and loves to | hate, and so he thinks that love is fearful—hate is love. This is |
| Tx:29.2 | to love and loves to hate, and so he thinks that love is fearful— | hate is love. This is the consequence the little gap must bring to |
| Tx:29.7 | the sacrifice of love, for in love's presence fear cannot abide. For | hate to be maintained love must be feared and only sometimes present, |
| Tx:29.12 | of retaining sin and pain. For pain and sin are one illusion, as are | hate and fear, attack and guilt but one. Where they are causeless, |
| Tx:29.18 | And it can fail to be what you demanded that it be. And you will | hate it for its littleness, unmindful that the failure does not lie |
| Tx:29.19 | behold the body as a thing you love, or look upon it as a thing you | hate. For if He be the sum of everything, then what is not in Him |
| Tx:29.35 | him worthy of Himself, would you attack him with the hands of | hate? Who would lay bloody hands on Heaven itself and hope to find |
| Tx:29.36 | A dream is given you in which he is your savior, not your enemy in | hate. A dream is given you in which you have forgiven him for all his |
| Tx:29.36 | hope you share with him instead of dreaming evil separate dreams of | hate. Why does it seem so hard to share this dream? Because unless |
| Tx:29.36 | unless the Holy Spirit gives the dream its function, it was made for | hate and will continue in death's services. Each form it takes in |
| Tx:29.57 | Son of God, as perfect, sinless and as loving as his Father, come to | hate a little while, to suffer pain, and finally to die. |
| Tx:30.35 | Look once again upon your enemy, the one you chose to | hate instead of love. For thus was hatred born into the world, and |
| Tx:30.35 | Voice and yours as well, reminding you that it is not your will to | hate and be a prisoner to fear, a slave to death, a little creature |
| Tx:30.65 | An ancient | hate is passing from the world. And with it goes all hatred and all |
| Tx:31.10 | as God's love must be remembered when he learns his innocence. For | hate must father fear and look upon its father as itself. How wrong |
| Tx:31.10 | world! You do not understand Who calls to you beyond each form of | hate, each call to war. Yet you will recognize Him as you give Him |

| Tx:31.26 | is shortened by a span of time you cannot realize. You never | hate your brother for his sins, but only for your own. Whatever form |
| Tx:31.27 | are your reality? And why do you attack them everywhere, except you | hate yourself? Are you a sin? You answer “yes” whenever you attack, |
| Tx:31.30 | and hold itself at bay, a sleeping prisoner to the snarling dogs of | hate and evil, sickness and attack, of pain and age, of grief and |
| Tx:31.79 | it has no power to create. Yet it can look with love or look with | hate, depending only on the simple choice of whether you would join |
| W1:22.2 | can escape? You made what you would destroy—everything that you | hate and would attack and kill. All that you fear does not exist. |

| W1:78.5 | grievances aside and look at him. Someone perhaps you fear and even | hate; someone you think you love who angers you; someone you call a |

| W1:138.11 | no terror now, for what was made enormous, vengeful, pitiless with | hate demands obscurity for fear to be invested there. Now it is |

haven (5) | ||
| Tx:16.32 | is an attempt to limit the destructive effects of hate by finding a | haven in the storm of guilt. It makes no attempt to rise above the |
| Tx:16.32 | into the sunlight. On the contrary, it emphasizes guilt outside the | haven by attempting to build barricades against it and keep within |
| W1:R1.5 | and turmoil. This is not done by avoiding them and seeking a | haven of isolation for yourself. You will yet learn that peace is |
| W1:137.11 | God does not exist. And who accepts it not within his mind becomes a | haven where the weary can remain to rest. For here is truth bestowed, |

| Tx:1.36 | which engages in the world and is capable of responding to both. | Having no impulses from itself and being primarily a mechanism for |
| Tx:1.85 | disposal for controlling time. Only revelation transcends time, | having nothing to do with time at all. |
| Tx:1.91 | as lacking. The concept of any sort of need hierarchy arose because, | having made this fundamental error, he had already fragmented himself |
| Tx:2.87 | where you need Atonement, because you have done something loveless, | having willed without love. This is precisely the situation for which |
| Tx:3.47 | recognition of the fact that it can always be remembered, never | having been destroyed. |
| Tx:4.48 | existence depends on your continuing belief in the separation. | Having reduced the Soul impulses to the unconscious, the ego has to |
| Tx:4.54 | been accepted. That is why we made no distinction before between | having the Kingdom of God and being the Kingdom of God. |
| Tx:4.88 | mind cannot maintain the separation except by dissociating. | Having done this, it utilizes repression against all truly natural |
| Tx:5.5 | the laws of God. To Him, getting is meaningless and giving is all. | Having everything, the Soul holds everything by giving it and thus |
| Tx:5.6 | you will see that, while this kind of thinking is totally alien to | having things, even to the lower mind it is quite comprehensible in |
| Tx:5.30 | aware of the fact that there is another way or another Voice. | Having given this invitation to the Holy Spirit, I could come to |
| Tx:5.42 | timeless. The mind must be led into eternity through time because, | having made time, it is capable of perceiving its opposite. |

| Tx:5.70 | It will also turn back to full creation the instant it has done so. | Having given up its thought disorder, the proper ordering of thought |
| Tx:5.74 | judgment. Perceiving it as fearful, it interprets it fearfully. | Having made you afraid, you do not appeal to the Higher Court, |
| Tx:6.39 | which are not ordinarily regarded as the same. We began with | having and being and more recently have used others. Hearing and |
| Tx:6.51 | There is no doubt there because the first question was never asked. | Having finally been wholly answered, it has never been. Being alone |
| Tx:6.57 | you equal with Him. This is because you had already taught wrongly, | having believed what was not true. You did not believe in your own |
| Tx:6.68 | step yourself, but it is necessary that you turn in that direction. | Having chosen to go that way, you place yourself in charge of the |
| Tx:6.69 | the conflict rather than take the next step towards its resolution. | Having taken the first step, however, they will be helped. Once they |
| Tx:6.79 | This is still a preliminary step since | having and being are still not equated. It is, however, more advanced |
| Tx:6.89 | prepared you for God. He is getting you ready for the translation of | having into being by the very nature of the steps you must take with |
| Tx:6.90 | You learn first that | having rests on giving and not on getting. Next you learn that you |
| Tx:7.29 | with seeming. Reality is yours, because you are reality. This is how | having and being are ultimately reconciled, not in the Kingdom, but |
| Tx:7.88 | from an attempt to project responsibility for your own errors. But | having accepted the errors as yours, do not keep them. Give them over |
| Tx:8.22 | accept the Atonement for yourself. What other choice could you make? | Having made this choice, you will begin to learn and understand why |
| Tx:8.43 | yourselves. Yet God did not will the destruction of His creations, | having created them for eternity. His Will has saved you, not from |
| Tx:8.117 | to have, but it is possible not to know you have. The recognition of | having is the willingness for giving, and only by this willingness |
| Tx:9.23 | nightmare and then uses them to prove that the nightmare is real. | Having made it real, he then attempts to dispel its effects by |
| Tx:9.95 | to be sick. This is the offering which your god demands because, | having made him out of your insanity, he is an insane idea. He has |
| Tx:10.8 | all creation is limited. How, then, could you know your creations, | having denied infinity? The laws of the universe do not permit |
| Tx:10.16 | has both Father and Son because he is both Father and Son. To unite | having and being is only to unite your will with His, for He wills |
| Tx:10.18 | he does not understand himself and therefore knows not what he does. | Having forgotten his will, he does not know what he wants. |
| Tx:10.65 | has a part of equal value. God does not judge His blameless Son. | Having given Himself to him, how could it be otherwise? |
| Tx:10.66 | And as long as you believe that you can crucify him, you are only | having nightmares. You who are beginning to wake are still aware of |
| Tx:11.1 | his error real to you. To interpret error is to give it power, and | having done this, you will overlook truth. |
| Tx:11.9 | must still translate it into truth. If you were left with the fear, | having recognized it, you would have taken a step away from reality, |
| Tx:11.10 | Having taught you to accept only loving thoughts in others and to | |
| Tx:11.14 | truth. The sick must heal themselves, for the truth is in them. Yet, | having obscured it, the light in another mind must shine into theirs |
| Tx:11.25 | Suppose a brother insists on | having you do something you think you do not want to do. The very |
| Tx:11.69 | You have looked upon your minds and accepted opposition there, | having sought it there. But do not then believe that the witnesses |
| Tx:11.88 | is the final lesson he need learn, for it teaches him that, never | having sinned, he has no need of salvation. |
| Tx:12.20 | feared what he had made, but still more did he fear his real Father, | having attacked his own glorious equality with Him. |
| Tx:12.22 | only your request for pain, for suffering is not of His creation. | Having given you creation, He could not take it from you. He could |
| Tx:12.54 | the light is in you. Yet you will find it through its witnesses, for | having given light to them, they will return it. Everyone you see in |
| Tx:12.54 | they offer you, who gave them joy. They are your guides to joy, for | having received it of you, they would keep it. You have established |
| Tx:13.8 | seen your brothers as yourself, you will be released to knowledge, | having learned to free yourself of Him Who knows of freedom. Unite |
| Tx:13.11 | for guilt is the attack upon His Son. The guilty always condemn, and | having done so, they will condemn, linking the future to the past as |
| Tx:13.47 | much of the ego's logic and have seen its logical conclusions. And | having seen them, we have realized that they cannot be seen but in |
| Tx:13.65 | merely to offset the pain of guilt and do not look upon it as | having value in itself. You believe that guilt and guiltlessness are |
| Tx:14.69 | trial you have has been undone. He has brought all of them to light, | having accepted them instead of you and recognized they never were. |
| Tx:14.71 | created like your Father. The miracle of creation has never ceased, | having the holy stamp of immortality upon it. This is the Will of God |
| Tx:15.32 | unable to accept anything for yourself. But you will gladly give, | having received. The host of God need not seek to find anything. |
| Tx:15.53 | God knows you now. He remembers nothing, | having always known you exactly as He knows you now. The holy instant |
| Tx:15.67 | The sick attraction of guilt must be recognized for what it is. For | having been made real to you, it is essential to look at it clearly, |

| W1:157.4 | practicing today, for what you ask for now is what He wills. And | having joined your will with His this day, what you are asking must |

| W1:187.1 | No one can give unless he has. In fact, giving is proof of | having. We have made this point before. What seems to make it hard to |

| M:5.7 | do guilt and sickness, pain, disaster, and all suffering mean now? | Having no purpose, they are gone. And with them also go all the |

| Tx:2.39 | to introduce a split-proof device which could be used only to | heal, if it were used at all. The Atonement was built into the |

| Tx:4.62 | you will see how your mind can focus and rise above fatigue and | heal. Yet you are not sufficiently vigilant against the demands of |

| Tx:10.16 | If sickness is separation, the will to | heal and be healed is the first step toward recognizing what you |
| Tx:10.18 | it. To deny meaning must be to fail to understand. You can | heal only yourself, for only God's Son needs healing. He needs it |
| Tx:10.84 | as his reality, for by denying that his mind is split, you will | heal yours. Accept him as his Father accepts him and heal him unto |
| Tx:10.84 | split, you will heal yours. Accept him as his Father accepts him and | heal him unto Christ, for Christ is his healing and yours. Christ is |
| Tx:10.86 | you share Heaven, and his healing is yours. To love yourself is to | heal yourself, and you cannot perceive part of you as sick and |
| Tx:10.86 | perceive part of you as sick and achieve your own goal. Brother, we | heal together as we live together and love together. Be not deceived |
| Tx:10.87 | your mind, for you are offended by Christ and are deceived in Him. | Heal in Christ and be not offended by Him, for there is no offense in |
| Tx:10.87 | His healing power and use it for all He sends you, for He wills to | heal the Son of God in whom He is not deceived. |
| Tx:11.14 | the translation of denial into truth. If to love oneself is to | heal oneself, those who are sick do not love themselves. Therefore, |
| Tx:11.14 | love themselves. Therefore, they are asking for the love that would | heal them but which they are denying to themselves. If they knew the |
| Tx:11.14 | thus becomes to deny the denial of truth. The sick must | heal themselves, for the truth is in them. Yet, having obscured it, |
| Tx:12.16 | cannot be denied. Not all the tricks and games you offer it can | heal it, for here is the real crucifixion of God's Son. |
| Tx:12.17 | to Him. Lay before His eternal sanity all your hurt, and let Him | heal you. Do not leave any spot of pain hidden from His light, and |
| Tx:12.17 | for any thoughts which you may fear to uncover. For He will | heal every little thought which you have kept to hurt you and cleanse |
| Tx:12.25 | it was. You question Heaven, but you do not question this. You could | heal and be healed if you did question it. And even though you know |
| Tx:12.53 | Him as you call forth the witnesses to His creation. Those whom you | heal bear witness to your healing, for in their wholeness you will |
| Tx:13.27 | Now it is given you to | heal and teach, to make what will be now. As yet it is not now. The |
| Tx:13.70 | Son except by himself and of himself. Every chance given him to | heal is another opportunity to replace darkness with light and fear |
| Tx:16.3 | to come of the relationship. You will neither to hurt it nor to | heal it in your own way. You do not know what healing is. All you |
| Tx:16.79 | between truth and illusion—between the real Atonement which would | heal and the ego's “atonement” which would destroy. The power of God |
| Tx:18.12 | here that you would look for happiness? Or would you not prefer to | heal what has been broken and join in making whole what has been |
| Tx:19.2 | Every situation properly perceived becomes an opportunity to | heal the Son of God. And he is healed because you offered faith to |
| Tx:19.3 | The body cannot | heal because it cannot make itself sick. It needs no healing. Its |
| Tx:19.5 | [Faithlessness would destroy and separate; faith would unite and | heal.] Faithlessness would interpose illusions between the Son of God |
| Tx:19.6 | for seeking out reality through attack, while the other part would | heal and therefore calls upon the mind and not the body. The |
| Tx:19.10 | To have faith is to | heal. It is the sign that you have accepted the Atonement for |
| Tx:19.13 | for both of you. And be you healed by grace together, that you may | heal through faith. |
| Tx:19.101 | because you share it. And all the pity and forgiveness that would | heal it gives way to fear. Brothers, you need forgiveness of each |
| Tx:21.65 | love, would reassure you and seeks not to frighten you. The power to | heal the Son of God is given you because he must be one with you. You |
| Tx:21.77 | or sin, power or helplessness, is the choice of whether to attack or | heal. For healing comes of power and attack of helplessness. Whom you |
| Tx:21.77 | power and attack of helplessness. Whom you attack you cannot want to | heal. And whom you would have healed must be the one you chose to be |
| Tx:21.87 | is necessary to the rest, as peace must come to those who choose to | heal and not to judge. |
| Tx:22.5 | Let reason take another step. If you attack whom God would | heal and hate the one He loves, then you and your Creator have a |
| Tx:22.53 | And it will be impossible for you to hate what serves what you would | heal. |
| Tx:22.54 | given it but will be used. This holy relationship has the power to | heal all pain, regardless of its form. Neither of you alone can serve |
| Tx:24.35 | nothing. See it as means to hurt, and it is hurt. See it as means to | heal, and it is healed. |
| Tx:24.36 | intent on specialness, it is impossible. Yet to those who wish to | heal and not attack, it is quite obvious. The purpose of attack is in |
| Tx:25.3 | To those who know Him not, it carries Him in gentleness and love to | heal their minds. Such is the mission that your brother has for you. |
| Tx:25.43 | himself with all the tenderness it offers others. For he would only | heal and only bless. And being in accord with what God wills, he has |
| Tx:25.43 | bless. And being in accord with what God wills, he has the power to | heal and bless all those he looks on with the grace of God upon his |
| Tx:25.46 | kind perception of specialness—His use of what you made, to | heal instead of harm. To each He gives a special function in |
| Tx:27.44 | The only way to | heal is to be healed. The miracle extends without your help, but you |
| Tx:27.45 | healed through double messages. If you wish only to be healed, you | heal. Your single purpose makes this possible. But if you are afraid |
| Tx:27.45 | a healing is a lack of fear. The fearful are not healed and cannot | heal. This does not mean the conflict must be gone forever from your |
| Tx:27.46 | up and comforted. There is no sadness where a miracle has come to | heal. And nothing more than just one instant of your love without |
| Tx:27.57 | witness that the body is not real. Its pains and pleasures does He | heal alike, for all sin's witnesses do His replace. |
| Tx:27.61 | better function could you serve than this? Be healed that you may | heal, and suffer not the laws of sin to be applied to you. And truth |
| Tx:28.2 | purpose and to be the means for something else. It can be used to | heal and not to hurt if you so wish it be. |
| Tx:28.61 | health, the Source of help, the Call to healing, and the Call to | heal? Your savior waits for healing, and the world waits with him. |
| Tx:29.11 | and so it must be you are healed. And being healed, the power to | heal must also now be yours. The miracle is not a separate thing |
| Tx:29.66 | this as does a child, who does not know what hurts and what will | heal. And bad things seem to happen, and he is afraid of all the |
| Tx:30.37 | he shares your freedom as he shares your will. It is your will to | heal him, and because you have decided with him, he is healed. And |
| Tx:30.74 | Forgiveness recognized as merited will | heal. It gives the miracle its strength to overlook illusions. This |
| Tx:30.75 | are some forms of sickness and of joylessness forgiveness cannot | heal. This means that you prefer to keep some idols and are not |
| Tx:30.76 | It must be true the miracle can | heal all forms of sickness, or it cannot heal. Its purpose cannot be |
| Tx:30.76 | be true the miracle can heal all forms of sickness, or it cannot | heal. Its purpose cannot be to judge which forms are real and which |
| Tx:30.77 | keep a part of him outside your willingness that he be healed. To | heal is to make whole. And what is whole can have no missing parts |
| Tx:30.77 | be some forms of sickness which the miracle must lack the power to | heal. |
| Tx:30.81 | His Son? Or have you been deceived in him who has been given you to | heal, for your salvation and deliverance? |
| Tx:30.91 | gives no answer to the prayer, nor can a miracle be given you to | heal appearances you do not like. You have established limits. What |
| Tx:30.92 | you consistently. For you have asked it be withheld from power to | heal all dreams. There is no miracle you cannot have when you desire |
| Tx:30.92 | that can be given you unless you want it. Choose what you would | heal, and He Who gives all miracles has not been given freedom to |
| Tx:30.93 | Because reality is changeless is a miracle already there to | heal all things that change and offer them to you to see in happy |
| Tx:31.62 | holy sight, that you may see the world of flesh no more except to | heal and comfort and to bless. |
| Tx:31.92 | occurs but disappear as mists before the sun. A miracle has come to | heal God's Son and close the door upon his dreams of weakness, |
| W1:41.2 | It will cure all sorrow and pain and fear and loss because it will | heal the mind that thought these things were real and suffered out of |
| W1:R1.5 | of your learning is to enable you to bring the quiet with you and to | heal distress and turmoil. This is not done by avoiding them and |
| W1:58.4 | my holiness cannot do. My holiness is unlimited in its power to | heal because it is unlimited in its power to save. What is there to |
| W1:75.1 | The light has come. You are healed and you can | heal. The light has come. You are saved, and you can save. You are at |
| W1:75.11 | mercy and the Love of God. Rejoice in the power of forgiveness to | heal your sight completely. Be confident that on this day there is a |
| W1:97.6 | each time someone accepts them as his thoughts and uses them to | heal. |
| W1:108.3 | which shows no opposites, and vision, being healed, has power to | heal. This is the light that brings your peace of mind to other |
| W1:109.3 | and onward to the certainty of God. There is no suffering it cannot | heal. There is no problem which it cannot solve. And no appearance |
| W1:110.2 | Today's idea is therefore all you need to let complete correction | heal your mind and give you perfect vision which will heal all the |
| W1:110.2 | correction heal your mind and give you perfect vision which will | heal all the mistakes that any mind has made at any time or place. It |
| W1:110.2 | that any mind has made at any time or place. It is enough to | heal the past and make the future free. It is enough to let the |
| W1:124.6 | they are one with God. No thought of theirs but has the power to | heal all forms of suffering in anyone in times gone by and times as |
| W1:124.7 | we say as well that we are saved and healed, that we can save and | heal accordingly. We have accepted and we now would give, for we |
| W1:126.7 | and true forgiveness, as the means by which it is attained, must | heal the mind that gives, for giving is receiving. What remains as |
| W1:135.11 | benefit at all but merely adds to your distress of mind. You do not | heal but merely take away the hope of healing, for you fail to see |
| W1:136.1 | No one can | heal unless he understands what purpose sickness seems to serve. For |
| W1:140.1 | is but what will make the body “better.” When it tries to | heal the mind, it sees no separation from the body, where it thinks |
| W1:140.4 | cannot come, for it is but another form of guilt. Atonement does not | heal the sick, for that is not a cure. It takes away the guilt that |
| W1:140.6 | It does not make distinctions among unrealities. Nor does it seek to | heal what is not sick, unmindful where the need for healing is. This |
| W1:140.6 | is no magic. It is merely an appeal to truth which cannot fail to | heal and heal forever. It is not a thought which judges an illusion |
| W1:140.6 | magic. It is merely an appeal to truth which cannot fail to heal and | heal forever. It is not a thought which judges an illusion by its |
| W1:165.6 | and salvation given you. Now is Christ's power in your mind to | heal as you were healed. For now you are among the saviors of the |
| W1:167.3 | to change your mind about yourself. It is the reason you can | heal. It is the cause of healing. It is why you cannot die. Its truth |
| W1:198.11 | thought. Nor can there be a form of pain forgiveness cannot | heal. |
| W2:WS.2 | there is a need of healing. So the thought which has the power to | heal the split became a part of every fragment of the mind that still |
| W2:WIB.4 | walk along the road with him. Now is the body holy. Now it serves to | heal the mind that it was made to kill. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | peace He shares with him. Be not afraid of love. For it alone can | heal all sorrow, wipe away all tears, and gently waken from his dream |
| W2:349.2 | And so we trust in Him to send us miracles to bless the world and | heal our minds as we return to Him. |
| M:5.9 | With God's Word in their minds they come in benediction, not to | heal the sick but to remind them of the remedy God has already given |
| M:5.9 | of the remedy God has already given them. It is not their hands that | heal. It is not their voice that speaks the Word of God. They merely |
| M:7.1 | cannot be repeated. If the patient is healed, what remains to | heal him from? And if the healing is certain, as we have already said |
| M:18.5 | In order to | heal, it thus becomes essential for the teacher of God to let all his |
| M:18.5 | condemn anyone? And who is there whom his forgiveness can fail to | heal? |
| M:22.1 | His Word, and every miracle has been accomplished. To forgive is to | heal. The teacher of God has taken accepting the Atonement for |
| M:22.1 | for himself as his only function. What is there, then, he cannot | heal? What miracle can be withheld from him? |
| M:22.3 | place of God and prove salvation is impossible. What then is left to | heal? The body has become lord of the mind. How could the mind be |
| M:22.5 | When a teacher of God fails to | heal, it is because he has forgotten Who he is. Another's sickness |
| M:22.5 | Mistakes do not correct mistakes, and distorted perception does not | heal. Step back now, teacher of God. You have been wrong. Lead not |
| M:22.6 | to all individuals in all circumstances. And in it is the power to | heal all individuals of all forms of sickness. Not to believe this is |
| M:22.6 | from God. Would you see him as separate from you? It is your task to | heal the sense of separation that has made him sick. It is your |
| M:23.1 | of Jesus Christ.” Is this merely an appeal to magic? A name does not | heal, nor does an invocation call forth any special power. What does |
| M:23.2 | that one who has perfectly accepted the Atonement for himself can | heal the world. Indeed, he has already done so. Temptation may recur |

| Tx:7.41 | ability which everyone can develop and must develop if he is to be | healed. Healing is the Holy Spirit's form of communication and the |

| Tx:19.4 | to him has separated you from him and kept you both apart from being | healed. Your faithlessness has thus opposed the Holy Spirit's purpose |
| Tx:19.6 | body. The inevitable compromise is the belief that the body must be | healed, and not the mind. For this divided goal has given both an |

| Tx:21.1 | in miracles is meaningless. Everything looked upon with vision is | healed and holy. Nothing perceived without it means anything. And |
| Tx:21.64 | accept a miracle instead without the other being blessed by it and | healed of pain. |

| Tx:22.37 | where both give errors gladly to correction that both may happily be | healed as one. |

| Tx:26.84 | stood a cross stands now the risen Christ, and ancient scars are | healed within His sight. An ancient miracle has come to bless and to |
| Tx:27.6 | Show this unto your brother, who will see that every scar is | healed and every tear is wiped away in laughter and in love. And he |
| Tx:27.6 | and in love. And he will look on his forgiveness there and with | healed eyes will look beyond it to the innocence that he beholds in |
| Tx:27.15 | Forgiveness cannot be for one and not the other. Who forgives is | healed. And in his healing lies the proof that he has truly pardoned |
| Tx:27.16 | undoing lies the proof that they were merely errors. Let yourself be | healed that you may be forgiving, offering salvation to your brother |
| Tx:27.16 | your brother and yourself. A broken body shows the mind has not been | healed. A miracle of healing proves that separation is without |
| Tx:27.17 | than it has given unto you. So does your healing show your mind is | healed and has forgiven what he did not do. And so is he convinced |
| Tx:27.17 | did not do. And so is he convinced his innocence was never lost and | healed along with you. |
| Tx:27.19 | yourself. Your healing saves him pain as well as you, and you are | healed because you wished him well. This is the law the miracle |
| Tx:27.44 | The only way to heal is to be | healed. The miracle extends without your help, but you are needed |
| Tx:27.44 | the instant it is offered and received. No one can ask another to be | healed. But he can let himself be healed and thus offer the other |
| Tx:27.44 | No one can ask another to be healed. But he can let himself be | healed and thus offer the other what he has received. Who can bestow |
| Tx:27.45 | demonstrated has it been proved and must compel belief. No one is | healed through double messages. If you wish only to be healed, you |
| Tx:27.45 | No one is healed through double messages. If you wish only to be | healed, you heal. Your single purpose makes this possible. But if you |
| Tx:27.45 | is required for a healing is a lack of fear. The fearful are not | healed and cannot heal. This does not mean the conflict must be gone |
| Tx:27.46 | attack is necessary that all this occur. In that one instant are you | healed, and in that single instant is all healing done. |
| Tx:27.47 | could have saved it but stepped back because he was afraid of being | healed? The eyes of all the dying bring reproach, and suffering |
| Tx:27.47 | only that you rest an instant from attack upon yourself, that it be | healed. |
| Tx:27.48 | Come to the holy instant and be | healed, for nothing that is there received is left behind on your |
| Tx:27.49 | Thus is your healing everything the world requires that it may be | healed. It needs one lesson which has perfectly been learned. And |
| Tx:27.49 | reinforcement will its thanks withhold from you who let yourself be | healed that it might live. It will call forth its witnesses to show |
| Tx:27.60 | There is no need to suffer any more. But there is need that you be | healed, because the suffering of the world has made it deaf to its |
| Tx:27.61 | to suffer more. What better function could you serve than this? Be | healed that you may heal, and suffer not the laws of sin to be |
| Tx:27.73 | with love to waken him. [A gentler dream, in which his suffering was | healed and where his brother was his friend.] God willed he waken |
| Tx:27.90 | is the only secret yet to learn. And it will be no secret you are | healed. |
| Tx:28.10 | And so your innocence has not been lost. You need no healing to be | healed. In quietness, see in the miracle a lesson in allowing Cause |
| Tx:28.11 | still. It reaches gently from that quiet time, and from the mind it | healed in quiet then, to other minds to share its quietness. And they |
| Tx:28.17 | the body. Nor can it be found where limitation is. The body can be | healed by its effects, which are as limitless as is itself. Yet must |
| Tx:28.26 | And where effects are gone, there is no cause. Thus is the body | healed by miracles because they show the mind made sickness and |
| Tx:28.26 | whole. The miracle is useless if you learn but that the body can be | healed, for this is not the lesson it was sent to teach. The lesson |
| Tx:28.44 | Son of God and put the pieces into place again. This holy picture, | healed entirely, does He hold out to every separate piece that thinks |
| Tx:28.58 | to be forever faithful unto death. And by his healing is his brother | healed. |
| Tx:28.59 | time he does not share a promise to be sick but lets his mind be | healed and unified. His secret vows are powerless before the Will of |
| Tx:28.63 | With this as purpose is the body | healed. It is not used to witness to the dream of separation and |
| Tx:29.11 | You have accepted healing's Cause, and so it must be you are | healed. And being healed, the power to heal must also now be yours. |

| Tx:29.13 | who walk apart believing they are separate and alone. They will be | healed when you accept your gifts, because your Guest will welcome |
| Tx:30.37 | to you to ask the world be saved, for by your own salvation it is | healed. And no one walks upon the earth but must depend on your |
| Tx:30.37 | your will to heal him, and because you have decided with him, he is | healed. And now is God forgiven, for you chose to look upon your |
| Tx:30.74 | be some appearances which could withstand the miracle and not be | healed by it. |
| Tx:30.77 | And do not keep a part of him outside your willingness that he be | healed. To heal is to make whole. And what is whole can have no |
| Tx:30.93 | in some respects. For this but means you would not have him | healed and whole. The Christ in him is perfect. Is it this that you |

| W1:43.2 | Yet does the Holy Spirit give it a meaning very close to God's. | Healed perception becomes the means by which the Son of God forgives |
| W1:70.4 | is the way your mind has worked, but hardly His. He wants you to be | healed, and so He has kept the Source of healing where the need for |
| W1:70.6 | God wants us to be | healed, and we do not really want to be sick, because it makes us |
| W1:70.6 | He does not want us to be sick. Neither do we. He wants us to be | healed. So do we. |
| W1:75.1 | The light has come. You are | healed and you can heal. The light has come. You are saved, and you |
| W1:82.2 | the world in me. My forgiveness is the means by which the world is | healed, together with myself. Let me, then, forgive the world that it |
| W1:82.2 | together with myself. Let me, then, forgive the world that it may be | healed along with me. |
| W1:95.17 | You are One Self, complete and | healed and whole, with power to lift the veil of darkness from the |
| W1:97.9 | Spirit am I, a holy Son of God, free of all limits, safe and | healed and whole, free to forgive, and free to save the world. |
| W1:108.3 | This is the light which shows no opposites, and vision, being | healed, has power to heal. This is the light that brings your peace |
| W1:121.12 | in that light his holiness shows you your savior, saved and saving, | healed and whole. Then let him offer you the light you see in him and |
| W1:124.7 | with God. For in these words we say as well that we are saved and | healed, that we can save and heal accordingly. We have accepted and |
| W1:124.7 | the world is freed; as we deny our separation from our Father, it is | healed along with us. |
| W1:132.9 | all the thoughts that gave it these appearances. The sick are | healed as you let go all thoughts of sickness, and the dead arise |
| W1:135.12 | A | healed mind does not plan. It carries out the plans which it receives |
| W1:135.13 | A | healed mind is relieved from the belief that it must plan, although |
| W1:135.13 | this is so. But when it has accepted this as true, then is it | healed and lets the body go. |
| W1:136.17 | I will accept the truth of what I am and let my mind be wholly | healed today. |
| W1:136.18 | double purposes insanely sought, remaining in your mind. It will be | healed of all the sickly wishes that it tried to authorize the body |
| W1:136.19 | Now is the body | healed because the source of sickness has been opened to relief. And |
| W1:136.21 | to hurt you longer. Do not be confused about what must be | healed, but tell yourself: |
| W1:137.3 | It is impossible that anyone be | healed alone. In sickness must he be apart and separate. But healing |
| W1:137.4 | separation sickness would impose has never really happened. To be | healed is merely to accept what always was the simple truth and |
| W1:137.10 | everything that ever caused you pain. And as you let yourself be | healed, you see all those around you or who cross your mind or whom |
| W1:137.10 | mind or whom you touch or those who seem to have no contact with you | healed along with you. Perhaps you will not recognize them all, nor |
| W1:137.10 | to all the world when you let healing come to you. But you are never | healed alone. And legions upon legions will receive the gift which |
| W1:137.10 | upon legions will receive the gift which you receive when you are | healed. |
| W1:137.11 | Those who are | healed become the instruments of healing. Nor does time elapse |
| W1:137.11 | of healing. Nor does time elapse between the instant they are | healed and all the grace of healing it is given them to give. What is |
| W1:137.12 | minds, that thoughts of healing will this day go forth from what is | healed to what must yet be healed, aware that they will both occur as |
| W1:137.12 | will this day go forth from what is healed to what must yet be | healed, aware that they will both occur as one. |
| W1:137.13 | remember, as the hour strikes, our function is to let our minds be | healed that we may carry healing to the world, exchanging curse for |
| W1:137.15 | When I am | healed, I am not healed alone. And I would share my healing with the |
| W1:137.15 | When I am healed, I am not | healed alone. And I would share my healing with the world, that |
| W1:137.17 | When I am | healed, I am not healed alone. And I would bless my brothers, for I |
| W1:137.17 | When I am healed, I am not | healed alone. And I would bless my brothers, for I would be healed |
| W1:137.17 | I am not healed alone. And I would bless my brothers, for I would be | healed with them as they are healed with me. |
| W1:137.17 | would bless my brothers, for I would be healed with them as they are | healed with me. |
| W1:140.2 | He is not | healed. He merely had a dream that he was sick, and in the dream he |

| M:5.5 | so, and he recovers. If he decides against recovery, he will not be | healed. Who is the physician? Only the mind of the patient himself. |
| M:5.8 | If the patient must change his mind in order to be | healed, what does the teacher of God do? Can he change the patient's |
| M:5.8 | how insane this concept is. If they even suspected it, they would be | healed. Yet they suspect nothing. To them the separation is quite |
| M:7.1 | really answers itself. Healing cannot be repeated. If the patient is | healed, what remains to heal him from? And if the healing is certain, |

| M:8.6 | continue to see differences, but the mind which has let itself be | healed will no longer acknowledge them. There will be those who seem |
| M:18.5 | Guide, and let Him judge what the response should be. So is he | healed, and in his healing is his pupil healed with him. The sole |
| M:18.5 | response should be. So is he healed, and in his healing is his pupil | healed with him. The sole responsibility of God's teacher is to |
| M:22.1 | of hell in Heaven is inconceivable. Accept Atonement, and you are | healed. Atonement is the Word of God. Accept His Word, and what |
| M:22.4 | It is true of all things that God created. In it are all illusions | healed. |
| M:22.5 | you have lost it. Turn quickly to your Teacher, and let yourself be | healed. |
| M:22.7 | Who can limit the power of God Himself? Who then can say who can be | healed of what and what must remain beyond God's power to forgive? |

| Tx:2.64 | The | healer who relies on his own readiness is endangering his |
| Tx:5.10 | Trinity which is symbolic. He is referred to in the Bible as the | Healer, the Comforter, and the Guide. He is also described as |
| Tx:5.89 | thought system at every turn because he was both an honest man and a | healer. He was therefore only partially insane and was unable to |
| Tx:5.91 | the sick at times, but they have not raised the dead. Unless the | healer heals himself, he does not believe that there is no order of |
| Tx:7.31 | that is already there and thereby reawaken it. This is why the | healer is part of the resurrection and the life. The Spirit is not |
| Tx:7.39 | with healing that it does need clarification. The unhealed | healer obviously does not understand his own vocation. |
| Tx:7.42 | Magic always tries to weaken. Healing perceives nothing in the | healer that everyone else does not share with him. Magic always sees |

| Tx:7.44 | work by chance, and healing that is of Him always works. Unless the | healer always heals by Him, the results will vary. Yet healing itself |
| Tx:7.44 | and acknowledging that he can sometimes heal and sometimes not, the | healer is obviously accepting inconsistency. He is therefore in |
| Tx:7.47 | The unhealed | healer wants gratitude from his brothers, but he is not grateful to |
| Tx:9.20 | healers and is therefore of the ego. Let us consider the unhealed | healer more carefully now. By definition, he is trying to give what |
| Tx:9.21 | are unreal. How, then, can “uncovering” them make them real? Every | healer who searches fantasies for truth must be unhealed, because he |
| Tx:9.21 | not real and that anything they contain is meaningless. The unhealed | healer cannot do this, because he does not believe it. |
| Tx:9.24 | Nothing real does. Nothing real has happened to the unhealed | healer, and he learns from his own teaching. |
| Tx:9.25 | the situation. Seeking to get something for himself, the unhealed | healer does not know how to give and consequently cannot share. He |

| Tx:2.69 | healing ability is temporary. However, as long as time persists, | healing is needed as a means for human protection. This is because |
| Tx:2.69 | healing is needed as a means for human protection. This is because | healing rests on charity, and charity is a way of perceiving the |

| Tx:4.10 | the reality of his dream while he is still dreaming is not really | healing the level-split. You have dreamed of a separated ego, and you |

| Tx:5.2 | makes no difference to what part or by what part of the Sonship the | healing is done. Every part benefits and benefits equally. |
| Tx:5.5 | Healing is an act of thought by which two minds perceive their | |
| Tx:5.11 | the Atonement at the same time. Before that, there was no need for | healing and no one was comfortless. |
| Tx:5.16 | at which the shift occurs. Finally, it points the way beyond the | healing which it brings and leads the mind beyond its own integration |

| Tx:5.33 | The Holy Spirit is the idea of | healing. Being thought, the idea gains as it is shared. Being the |
| Tx:5.47 | as you are willing to return the part of your mind that needs | healing to the higher part and thus render your creating undivided. |
| Tx:5.49 | has merit, but without the concept of the Atonement, it lacks the | healing potential it holds. You made the distinction in terms of |
| Tx:5.49 | led to a decision not to repeat the error, which is only part of | healing. Your concept lacked the idea of undoing it. What you were |
| Tx:5.57 | those who have been forgiven must devote themselves first to | healing, because having received the idea of healing, they must give |
| Tx:5.57 | themselves first to healing, because having received the idea of | healing, they must give it to hold it. The full power of creation |
| Tx:6.94 | it. Once your mind is healed, it radiates health and thereby teaches | healing. This establishes you as a teacher who teaches like me. |
| Tx:7.31 | As has so often been said, | healing is both an art and a science. It is an art, because it |
| Tx:7.31 | them, because that would be magic and therefore would not be real | healing. You do, however, recognize the Spirit that is already there |
| Tx:7.32 | Healing is also a science, because it obeys the laws of God, Whose | |
| Tx:7.33 | from the Voice for God, and certainty comes from the laws of God. | Healing does not come directly from God, Who knows His creations as |
| Tx:7.33 | directly from God, Who knows His creations as perfectly whole. Yet | healing is [nevertheless] of God, because it proceeds from His Voice |
| Tx:7.35 | Spirit, Who knows how to use them properly. He can use them only for | healing, because He knows you only as whole. By healing you learn of |
| Tx:7.35 | use them only for healing, because He knows you only as whole. By | healing you learn of wholeness, and by learning of wholeness you |
| Tx:7.36 | As you heal you are healed, because the Holy Spirit sees no order of | healing. Healing is the way to undo the belief in differences, being |
| Tx:7.36 | you are healed, because the Holy Spirit sees no order of healing. | Healing is the way to undo the belief in differences, being the only |
| Tx:7.37 | know you have it. By not knowing this, you do not know what you are. | Healing, then, is a way of approaching knowledge by thinking in |
| Tx:7.38 | who is all Being. You are therefore in Him since your being is His. | Healing is a way of forgetting the sense of danger the ego has |
| Tx:7.39 | the body only for communication has such a direct connection with | healing that it does need clarification. The unhealed healer |
| Tx:7.40 | be poorly taught and poorly learned. If you teach both sickness and | healing, you are both a poor teacher and a poor learner. |
| Tx:7.41 | Healing is the one ability which everyone can develop and must | |
| Tx:7.41 | which everyone can develop and must develop if he is to be healed. | Healing is the Holy Spirit's form of communication and the only one |
| Tx:7.41 | been confused with the mind. This fact, too, can be used either for | healing or for magic, but you must remember that magic is always the |
| Tx:7.41 | magic, but you must remember that magic is always the belief that | healing is harmful. This is its totally insane premise, and so it |
| Tx:7.42 | Healing only strengthens. Magic always tries to weaken. Healing | |
| Tx:7.42 | Healing only strengthens. Magic always tries to weaken. | Healing perceives nothing in the healer that everyone else does not |
| Tx:7.42 | something that others [do not]. You might well ask, then, why some | healing can result from this kind of thinking, and there is a reason |
| Tx:7.43 | to the Sonship, and the only thing the Sonship can accept is | healing. When the so-called “healing” works, then, the impulse to |
| Tx:7.44 | The Holy Spirit does not work by chance, and | healing that is of Him always works. Unless the healer always heals |
| Tx:7.44 | Unless the healer always heals by Him, the results will vary. Yet | healing itself is consistence since only consistence is |
| Tx:7.45 | mind could possibly perceive as meaningful. Fear does not gladden. | Healing does. Fear always makes exceptions. Healing never does. Fear |
| Tx:7.45 | Fear does not gladden. Healing does. Fear always makes exceptions. | Healing never does. Fear produces dissociation, because it induces |
| Tx:7.45 | does. Fear produces dissociation, because it induces separation. | Healing always produces harmony, because it proceeds from integration. |
| Tx:7.46 | Healing is predictable, because it can be counted on. Everything that | |
| Tx:7.46 | of God can be counted on, because everything of God is wholly real. | Healing can be counted on, because it is inspired by His Voice and is |
| Tx:7.46 | it is inspired by His Voice and is in accord with His laws. Yet if | healing is consistence, it cannot be inconsistently understood. |
| Tx:7.47 | His teaching is limited, because he is learning so little. His | healing lesson is limited by his own ingratitude, which is a lesson |
| Tx:8.30 | factor in rehabilitation. Without this you are deciding against | healing, and your veto of my will for you makes healing impossible. |
| Tx:8.30 | are deciding against healing, and your veto of my will for you makes | healing impossible. If healing is our joint will, unless our wills |
| Tx:8.30 | and your veto of my will for you makes healing impossible. If | healing is our joint will, unless our wills are joined you cannot be |
| Tx:8.30 | joined you cannot be healed. This is obvious when you consider what | healing is for. Healing is the way in which the separation is |
| Tx:8.30 | be healed. This is obvious when you consider what healing is for. | Healing is the way in which the separation is overcome. Separation is |
| Tx:8.62 | Healing is the result of using the body solely for communication. | |
| Tx:8.63 | The removal of blocks, then, is the only way to guarantee help and | healing. Help and healing are the normal expressions of a mind which |
| Tx:8.63 | then, is the only way to guarantee help and healing. Help and | healing are the normal expressions of a mind which is working through |
| Tx:8.80 | be to accept the ego's belief that the body is the proper aim for | healing. Ask rather that the Holy Spirit teach you the right |
| Tx:8.84 | Healing is release from the fear of waking and the substitution of | |
| Tx:8.84 | of the will to wake. The will to wake is the will to love, since all | healing involves replacing fear with love. The Holy Spirit cannot |
| Tx:8.89 | The unification of purpose, then, is the Holy Spirit's only way of | healing. This is because it is the only level at which healing means |
| Tx:8.89 | only way of healing. This is because it is the only level at which | healing means anything. The re-establishing of meaning in a chaotic |
| Tx:8.89 | is essential to His because your meaning is part of His. Your | healing, then, is part of His health since it is part of His |
| Tx:8.108 | want, even if it is. This accounts for why certain specific forms of | healing are not achieved, even though the state of healing is. It |
| Tx:8.108 | specific forms of healing are not achieved, even though the state of | healing is. It frequently happens that an individual asks for |
| Tx:8.108 | is. It frequently happens that an individual asks for physical | healing because he is fearful of bodily harm. At the same time, |
| Tx:8.108 | a symptom which he has selected. This request is, therefore, not for | healing at all. |
| Tx:9.8 | His function, or you will forget yours. Accept only the function of | healing in time, because that is what time is for. God gave you the |
| Tx:9.21 | for truth and therefore does not have the answer to the problem of | healing. There is an advantage to bringing nightmares into awareness, |
| Tx:9.23 | by depreciating the importance of the dreamer. This would be a | healing approach if the dreamer were properly identified as unreal. |
| Tx:9.26 | Healing is not mysterious. Nothing will occur unless you understand | |
| Tx:9.28 | The therapist does not heal; he lets | healing be. He can point to darkness, but he cannot bring light of |
| Tx:9.28 | be for his patient. The Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He makes | healing perfectly clear in any situation in which he is the Guide. |
| Tx:9.36 | in eternity because they are reparative. Yet while you still need | healing, your miracles are the only witnesses to your reality which |
| Tx:9.76 | Your minds are not separate, and God has only one channel for | healing, because He has but one Son. His remaining communication link |
| Tx:9.100 | Do not look to the god of sickness for | healing but only to the God of love, for healing is the |
| Tx:9.100 | to the god of sickness for healing but only to the God of love, for | healing is the acknowledgment of Him. When you acknowledge Him, you |
| Tx:10.5 | You have learned your need of | healing. Would you bring anything else to the Sonship, recognizing |
| Tx:10.5 | you bring anything else to the Sonship, recognizing your need of | healing for yourself? For in this lies the beginning of knowledge, |
| Tx:10.15 | that His Son be one, and united with Him in His Oneness. That is why | healing is the beginning of the recognition that your will is His. |
| Tx:10.16 | you truly want. Every attack is a step away from this, and every | healing thought brings it closer. The Son of God has both Father and |
| Tx:10.17 | Healing thus becomes a lesson in understanding, and the more you | |
| Tx:10.17 | yourself among them, for in your willingness to join them is your | healing accomplished. Every miracle which you accomplish speaks to |
| Tx:10.17 | which you accomplish speaks to you of the Fatherhood of God. Every | healing thought which you accept, either from your brother or in your |
| Tx:10.18 | to understand. You can heal only yourself, for only God's Son needs | healing. He needs it because he does not understand himself and |
| Tx:10.19 | Healing is a sign that he wants to make whole. And this willingness | |
| Tx:10.19 | whose message is wholeness. He will enable you to go far beyond the | healing you would undertake, for beside your small willingness to |
| Tx:10.40 | What is | healing but the removal of all that stands in the way of knowledge? |
| Tx:10.84 | his Father accepts him and heal him unto Christ, for Christ is his | healing and yours. Christ is the Son of God, who is in no way |
| Tx:10.85 | you will give it because you want it. Nothing will be beyond your | healing power because nothing will be denied your simple request. |
| Tx:10.86 | himself, for his split mind is yours, and you will not accept your | healing without his. For you share the real world as you share |
| Tx:10.86 | his. For you share the real world as you share Heaven, and his | healing is yours. To love yourself is to heal yourself, and you |
| Tx:10.87 | guidance, for He would save you from all condemnation. Accept His | healing power and use it for all He sends you, for He wills to heal |
| Tx:11.3 | part. Every loving thought is true. Everything else is an appeal for | healing and help. That is what it is, regardless of the form it |
| Tx:11.4 | “battles” with reality in which you deny the reality of the need for | healing by making it unreal. You would not do this except for your |
| Tx:11.15 | remembered alone. This is what you have forgotten. To perceive the | healing of your brother as the healing of yourself is thus the way to |
| Tx:11.15 | you have forgotten. To perceive the healing of your brother as the | healing of yourself is thus the way to remember God. For you forgot |
| Tx:11.16 | brother as yourself. Answer his call for love and yours is answered. | Healing is the love of Christ for His Father and for Himself. |
| Tx:11.64 | As your function in Heaven is creation, so your function on earth is | healing. God shares His function with you in Heaven, and the Holy |
| Tx:12.16 | in this mind is so apparent when it is uncovered that its need of | healing cannot be denied. Not all the tricks and games you offer it |
| Tx:12.17 | And yet he is not crucified. Here is both his pain and his | healing, for the Holy Spirit's vision is merciful, and His remedy is |
| Tx:12.19 | Holy Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt yourself from His | healing power, for by not offering total love, you will not be healed |
| Tx:12.19 | for by not offering total love, you will not be healed completely. | Healing must be as complete as fear, for love cannot enter where |
| Tx:12.23 | is about you. You have been told that your function in this world is | healing, and your function in Heaven is creating. The ego teaches |
| Tx:12.32 | interpret yours. If you accept your function in the world of time as | healing, you will emphasize only the aspect of time in which healing |
| Tx:12.32 | time as healing, you will emphasize only the aspect of time in which | healing can occur. For healing cannot be accomplished in the past and |
| Tx:12.32 | emphasize only the aspect of time in which healing can occur. For | healing cannot be accomplished in the past and must be accomplished |
| Tx:12.50 | the present, for it holds the only things that are forever true. All | healing lies within it because its continuity is real. It extends to |
| Tx:12.53 | witnesses to His creation. Those whom you heal bear witness to your | healing, for in their wholeness you will see your own. And as your |
| Tx:12.76 | sorrow from the Mind of God's most holy Son, where it cannot abide. | Healing in time is needed, for joy cannot establish its eternal reign |
| Tx:13.5 | thus brings you nearer to the end of time by bringing healed and | healing sight into the darkness and enabling the world to see. For |
| Tx:13.7 | Be you content with | healing, for Christ's gift you can bestow, and your Father's gift you |
| Tx:13.9 | as are the miracles which you created in His name. They need no | healing, nor do you when you know them. |
| Tx:13.26 | done so. He has seen separation, but knows of union. He teaches | healing, but He also knows of creation. He would have you see and |
| Tx:13.69 | that comes from choosing to be free of guilt. Everyone you offer | healing to returns it. Everyone you attack keeps it and cherishes it |
| Tx:14.9 | the guiltlessness which must have been denied to produce need of | healing. Do not withhold this glad acknowledgment, for hope of |
| Tx:14.17 | love's beneficence. What is kept apart from love cannot share its | healing power, because it has been separated off and kept in |
| Tx:14.44 | Could you but realize for a single instant the power of | healing that the reflection of God, shining in you, can bring to all |
| Tx:14.44 | perceives it as the same. All bring their different problems to its | healing light, but all their problems are met only with healing there. |
| Tx:14.44 | to its healing light, but all their problems are met only with | healing there. |
| Tx:14.45 | no contradiction in what holiness calls forth. Its one response is | healing, without regard for what is brought to it. Those who have |
| Tx:14.45 | for what is brought to it. Those who have learned to offer only | healing because of the reflection of holiness in them are ready at |
| Tx:15.103 | you. Let yourself be healed completely that you may join with Him in | healing, and let us celebrate our release together by releasing |
| Tx:16.1 | the ego to another ego. He does not join in pain, knowing that | healing pain is not accomplished by delusional attempts to enter into |
| Tx:16.3 | to hurt it nor to heal it in your own way. You do not know what | healing is. All you have learned of empathy is from the past. And |
| Tx:16.3 | the past real and so perpetuate it. Step gently aside and let the | healing be done for you. Keep but one thought in mind and do not lose |
| Tx:16.7 | which hovers over it and blesses it silently by enveloping it in | healing wings. Let this be, and do not try to substitute your |
| Tx:17.42 | alike on all relationships, for in it they are one. For here is only | healing, already complete and perfect. For here is God, and where He |
| Tx:18.13 | limits and reaches out to every broken fragment of the Sonship with | healing and uniting comfort. This is offered you in your holy |
| Tx:18.94 | does make lovely, but it does not create. It is the source of | healing, but it is the messenger of love and not its Source. Here you |
| Tx:19.2 | which makes this purpose real because you make it whole. And this is | healing. The body is healed because you came without it and joined |
| Tx:19.2 | healed because you came without it and joined the mind in which all | healing rests. |
| Tx:19.3 | The body cannot heal because it cannot make itself sick. It needs no | healing. Its health or sickness depends entirely on how the mind |
| Tx:19.4 | the body will seem to be sick, for you have made of it an “enemy” of | healing and the opposite of truth. |
| Tx:19.7 | Here then is | healing needed. And it is here that healing is. For God gave healing |
| Tx:19.7 | Here then is healing needed. And it is here that | healing is. For God gave healing not apart from sickness, nor |
| Tx:19.7 | then is healing needed. And it is here that healing is. For God gave | healing not apart from sickness, nor established remedy where |
| Tx:19.14 | No error interferes with its calm sight, which brings the miracle of | healing with equal ease to all of them. For what the messengers of |
| Tx:19.33 | If sin were real, it would forever be beyond the hope of | healing. For there would be a power beyond God's, capable of making |
| Tx:19.36 | upon each other as yourself. Your relationship is now a temple of | healing—a place where all the weary ones can come and find rest. |
| Tx:19.37 | and freedom to everyone who draws nigh unto your temple, where | healing waits for him. |
| Tx:20.74 | disappear when they are recognized for what they are. This is the | healing and the remedy. Believe them not, and they are gone. And all |
| Tx:21.64 | If you choose sin instead of | healing, you would condemn the Son of God to what can never be |
| Tx:21.77 | or helplessness, is the choice of whether to attack or heal. For | healing comes of power and attack of helplessness. Whom you attack |
| Tx:22.54 | Neither of you alone can serve at all. Only in your joint will does | healing lie. For here your healing is and here will you accept |
| Tx:22.54 | at all. Only in your joint will does healing lie. For here your | healing is and here will you accept Atonement. And in your healing is |
| Tx:22.54 | here your healing is and here will you accept Atonement. And in your | healing is the Sonship healed because your wills are joined. |
| Tx:22.59 | that God has given Him to make each little gift of love a source of | healing for everyone. Each little gift you offer to the other lights |
| Tx:23.50 | attracts you and that you do not recognize for what it is limits the | healing and the miracles you have the power to extend to all. Yet |
| Tx:24.36 | to miracles. For miracles are merely change of purpose from hurt to | healing. |
| Tx:24.49 | of the night. He is your savior from the dreams of fear. He is the | healing of your sense of sacrifice and fear that what you have will |
| Tx:24.52 | Forget not that the | healing of God's Son is all the world is for. That is the only |
| Tx:24.52 | Spirit sees in it and thus the only one it has. Until you see the | healing of the Son as all you wish to be accomplished by the world, |
| Tx:25.3 | The body needs no | healing. But the mind that thinks it is a body is sick indeed! And it |
| Tx:25.83 | one deserves to lose. And what would be unjust to him cannot occur. | Healing must be for everyone because he does not merit an attack of |
| Tx:25.83 | from others as less worthy, more condemned, and thus apart from | healing. Who is there who can be separate from salvation if its |
| Tx:25.83 | if some errors are unforgivable and warrant vengeance in place of | healing and return of peace? |
| Tx:25.84 | bears no witness to. And everyone is equally entitled to His gift of | healing and deliverance and peace. To give a problem to the Holy |
| Tx:26.14 | which has no resolution, you have made it great and past the hope of | healing. You deny the miracle of justice can be fair. |
| Tx:26.47 | This is a course in miracles. And as such, the laws of | healing must be understood before the purpose of the course can be |
| Tx:26.47 | and arrange them in a way that summarizes all that must occur for | healing to be possible. For when it once is possible, it must occur. |
| Tx:26.51 | some are given greater value and less willingly offered to truth for | healing and for help. No illusion has any truth in it. Yet it appears |
| Tx:26.52 | that it is real has made some errors seem forever past the hope of | healing and the lasting grounds for hell. If this were so, would |
| Tx:26.61 | cause and consequence are brought together, not kept separate. The | healing of effect without the cause can merely shift effects to other |
| Tx:26.62 | justify a miracle, whatever form they took. In every miracle all | healing lies, for God gave answer to them all as one. And what is one |
| Tx:26.64 | In crucifixion is redemption laid, for | healing is not needed where there is no pain or suffering. |
| Tx:26.72 | And in overlooking this, is it protected and kept separate from | healing. For a miracle is now. It stands already here in present |
| Tx:27.6 | sting of fear. Attest his innocence and not his guilt. Your | healing is his comfort and his health because it proves illusions are |
| Tx:27.11 | is Heaven free to be remembered. Here its peace can come and perfect | healing take the place of death. The body can become a sign of life, |
| Tx:27.11 | grown sick of breathing in the fetid scent of death. Let it have | healing as its purpose. Then will it send forth the message it |
| Tx:27.13 | Is | healing frightening? To many, yes. For accusation is a bar to love, |
| Tx:27.15 | be for one and not the other. Who forgives is healed. And in his | healing lies the proof that he has truly pardoned and retains no |
| Tx:27.16 | Forgiveness is not real unless it brings a | healing to your brother and yourself. You must attest his sins had no |
| Tx:27.16 | A broken body shows the mind has not been healed. A miracle of | healing proves that separation is without effect. What you would |
| Tx:27.17 | to teach that it has never suffered pain because of him. And in its | healing can it offer him mute testimony of his innocence. It is this |
| Tx:27.17 | offer nothing less to him than it has given unto you. So does your | healing show your mind is healed and has forgiven what he did not do. |
| Tx:27.18 | and so he stands condemned. Yet it is given you to show him by your | healing that his guilt is but the fabric of a senseless dream. |
| Tx:27.19 | of full deliverance from guilt upon your brother and yourself. Your | healing saves him pain as well as you, and you are healed because you |
| Tx:27.19 | because you wished him well. This is the law the miracle obeys; that | healing sees no specialness at all. It does not come from pity but |
| Tx:27.20 | that your salvation sacrifices his. The Holy Spirit knows your | healing is the witness unto his and cannot be apart from his at all. |
| Tx:27.20 | his suffering is purposeless and wholly without cause. Show him your | healing, and he will consent no more to suffer. For his innocence has |
| Tx:27.21 | Who then fears | healing? Only those to whom their brother's sacrifice and pain are |
| Tx:27.21 | to reason with an argument for sickness such as this? And need your | healing be delayed because you pause to listen to insanity? |
| Tx:27.27 | being made aware of any function other than Its own. And thus is | healing given both of you. |
| Tx:27.44 | help, but you are needed that it can begin. Accept the miracle of | healing, and it will go forth because of what it is. It is its nature |
| Tx:27.45 | Your single purpose makes this possible. But if you are afraid of | healing, then it cannot come through you. The only thing that is |
| Tx:27.45 | it cannot come through you. The only thing that is required for a | healing is a lack of fear. The fearful are not healed and cannot |
| Tx:27.45 | gone forever from your mind. For if it were, there'd be no need for | healing then. But it does mean, if only for an instant, you love |
| Tx:27.46 | that one instant are you healed, and in that single instant is all | healing done. |
| Tx:27.48 | sight to see beyond all suffering and see Christ's face instead. | Healing replaces suffering. Who looks on one cannot perceive the |
| Tx:27.49 | Thus is your | healing everything the world requires that it may be healed. It needs |
| Tx:27.50 | And thus while he perceives it, he can not perceive it as it is. But | healing is apparent in specific instances and generalizes to include |
| Tx:27.51 | Your | healing will extend and will be brought to problems that you thought |
| Tx:27.51 | from situations to their opposites and bring the same results. All | healing must proceed in lawful manner in accord with laws which have |
| Tx:27.53 | Peace be to you to whom is | healing offered. And you will learn that peace is given you when you |
| Tx:27.53 | And you will learn that peace is given you when you accept the | healing for yourself. Its total value need not be appraised by you to |
| Tx:27.53 | love entered in without attack will stay with you forever. Your | healing will be one of its effects, as will your brother's. |
| Tx:27.53 | by merely counting up its separate parts. God thanks you for your | healing, for He knows it is a gift of love unto His Son, and |
| Tx:27.59 | and the throes of death itself are but a single sound—a call for | healing and a plaintive cry for help within a world of misery. It is |
| Tx:27.61 | The resurrection of the world awaits your | healing and your happiness, that you may demonstrate the healing of |
| Tx:27.61 | awaits your healing and your happiness, that you may demonstrate the | healing of the world. The holy instant will replace all sin if you |
| Tx:28.3 | Nothing employed for | healing represents an effort to do anything at all. It is a |
| Tx:28.3 | to interfere with truth. All things the Holy Spirit can employ for | healing have been given Him, without the content and the purposes for |
| Tx:28.10 | more have you. And so your innocence has not been lost. You need no | healing to be healed. In quietness, see in the miracle a lesson in |
| Tx:28.17 | by its effects, which are as limitless as is itself. Yet must all | healing come about because the mind is recognized as not within the |
| Tx:28.17 | the body, and its innocence is quite apart from it and where all | healing is. Where then is healing? Only where its cause is given its |
| Tx:28.17 | is quite apart from it and where all healing is. Where then is | healing? Only where its cause is given its effects. For sickness is a |
| Tx:28.18 | Love's effect and must be cause because of what he is. The cause of | healing is the only Cause of everything. It has but one effect. And |
| Tx:28.19 | depending on the purpose of your dreaming. Do you wish for dreams of | healing or for dreams of death? A dream is like a memory in that it |
| Tx:28.29 | brother's mind prevents the cause of sickness and perceived effects. | Healing is the effect of minds which join, as sickness comes from |
| Tx:28.35 | there. And sickness will be seen without a cause. The dream of | healing in forgiveness lies and gently shows you that you never |
| Tx:28.46 | all the Healer of God's Son requires. He will place the miracle of | healing where the seeds of sickness were. And there will be no loss, |
| Tx:28.58 | not his tiny oath to be forever faithful unto death. And by his | healing is his brother healed. |
| Tx:28.61 | your wholeness and your health, the Source of help, the Call to | healing, and the Call to heal? Your savior waits for healing, and the |
| Tx:28.61 | the Call to healing, and the Call to heal? Your savior waits for | healing, and the world waits with him. Nor are you apart from it. For |
| Tx:28.61 | and the world waits with him. Nor are you apart from it. For | healing will be one or not at all, its oneness being where the |
| Tx:28.61 | For healing will be one or not at all, its oneness being where the | healing lies. What could correct for separation but its opposite? |
| Tx:28.63 | Nor is it idly blamed for what it did not do. It serves to help the | healing of God's Son, and for this purpose it cannot be sick. It will |
| Tx:30.76 | which appearances are true. If one appearance must remain apart from | healing, one illusion must be part of truth. And you could not escape |
| Tx:30.92 | heal all dreams. There is no miracle you cannot have when you desire | healing. But there is no miracle that can be given you unless you |
| W1:70.4 | His. He wants you to be healed, and so He has kept the Source of | healing where the need for healing lies. You have tried to do just |
| W1:70.4 | healed, and so He has kept the Source of healing where the need for | healing lies. You have tried to do just the opposite, making every |
| W1:70.4 | attempt, however distorted and fantastic it might be, to separate | healing from the sickness for which it was intended and thus keep the |
| W1:70.5 | Your purpose was to ensure that | healing did not occur; God's purpose was to ensure that it did. Today |
| W1:97.6 | to rule. He will not overlook one open mind that will accept the | healing gift they bring, and He will lay them everywhere He knows |
| W1:97.6 | everywhere He knows they will be welcome. And they will increase in | healing power each time someone accepts them as his thoughts and uses |
| W1:107.6 | of pain but looks beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the gift of | healing, for the truth needs no defense, and therefore no attack is |
| W1:109.6 | that has passed away. Let it be still and thankfully accept its | healing. No more fearful dreams will come now that you rest in God. |
| W1:110.5 | The | healing power of today's idea is limitless. It is the birthplace of |
| W1:126.10 | Be willing to be taught. Be glad to hear the Voice of truth and | healing speak to you, and you will understand the words He speaks and |
| W1:132.8 | But | healing is the gift of those who are prepared to learn there is no |
| W1:132.19 | You need not realize that | healing comes to many brothers far across the world as well as to the |
| W1:135.11 | These are the thoughts in need of | healing, and the body will respond with health when they have been |
| W1:135.11 | distress of mind. You do not heal but merely take away the hope of | healing, for you fail to see where hope must lie if it be meaningful. |
| W1:136.1 | intent of any kind, it cannot be at all. When this is seen, | healing is automatic. It dispels this meaningless illusion by the |
| W1:136.16 | for just this invitation which we give today. We introduce it with a | healing prayer to help us rise above defensiveness and let truth be |
| W1:136.18 | Healing will flash across your open mind as peace and truth arise to | |
| W1:137.1 | idea remains the central thought on which salvation rests. For | healing is the opposite of all the world's ideas which dwell on |
| W1:137.2 | cannot surmount. The world obeys the laws that sickness serves, but | healing operates apart from them. |
| W1:137.3 | be healed alone. In sickness must he be apart and separate. But | healing is his own decision to be one again and to accept his Self |
| W1:137.3 | to be dismembered and without the unity that gives it life. But | healing is accomplished as he sees the body has no power to attack |
| W1:137.4 | Sickness would prove that lies must be the truth. But | healing demonstrates that truth is true. The separation sickness |
| W1:137.4 | to illusions must be shown that what they look upon is false. So | healing, never needed by the truth, must demonstrate that sickness is |
| W1:137.5 | Healing might thus be called a counter-dream which cancels out the | |
| W1:137.5 | Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins that never were accomplished, | healing but removes illusions that have not occurred. Just as the |
| W1:137.5 | world will arise to take the place of what has never been at all, | healing but offers restitution for imagined states and false ideas |
| W1:137.6 | Yet think not | healing is unworthy of your function here. For anti-Christ becomes |
| W1:137.7 | sin and the real world will occupy the place of what you made, so | healing must replace the fantasies of sickness which you hold before |
| W1:137.8 | Healing is freedom. For it demonstrates that dreams will not prevail | |
| W1:137.8 | For it demonstrates that dreams will not prevail against the truth. | Healing is shared. And by this attribute, it proves that laws unlike |
| W1:137.8 | sickness is inevitable are more potent than their sickly opposites. | Healing is strength. For by its gentle hand is weakness overcome. And |
| W1:137.9 | Healing, forgiveness, and the glad exchange of all the world of | |
| W1:137.10 | nor realize how great your offering to all the world when you let | healing come to you. But you are never healed alone. And legions upon |
| W1:137.11 | Those who are healed become the instruments of | healing. Nor does time elapse between the instant they are healed and |
| W1:137.11 | time elapse between the instant they are healed and all the grace of | healing it is given them to give. What is opposed to God does not |
| W1:137.12 | Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of | healing will this day go forth from what is healed to what must yet |
| W1:137.13 | our function is to let our minds be healed that we may carry | healing to the world, exchanging curse for blessing, pain for joy, |
| W1:137.15 | When I am healed, I am not healed alone. And I would share my | healing with the world, that sickness may be banished from the mind |
| W1:137.16 | Let | healing be through you this very day. And as you rest in quiet, be |
| W1:140.1 | from the body, where it thinks the mind exists. Its forms of | healing thus must substitute illusion for illusion. One belief in |
| W1:140.6 | does it seek to heal what is not sick, unmindful where the need for | healing is. This is no magic. It is merely an appeal to truth which |
| W1:140.7 | Let us not try today to seek to cure what cannot suffer sickness. | Healing must be sought but where it is and then applied to what is |
| W1:140.8 | another shift among them. We will try today to find the source of | healing, which is in our minds because our Father placed it there for |
| W1:140.9 | us as sick. We go beyond appearances today and reach the source of | healing from which nothing is exempt. We will succeed to the extent |
| W1:140.10 | form they took. We will be still and listen for the Voice of | healing which will cure all ills as one, restoring saneness to the |
| W1:140.14 | it is real. This will we learn today. And we will say our prayer for | healing hourly and take a minute as the hour strikes to hear the |
| W1:140.14 | be given us as we attend in silence and in joy. This is the day when | healing comes to us. This is the day when separation ends and we |
| W1:151.14 | eternal Love. And as each thought is thus transformed, it takes on | healing power from the Mind Which saw the truth in it and failed to |
| W1:159.2 | You understand that you are healed when you give | healing. You accept forgiveness as accomplished in yourself when you |
| W1:164.6 | looks back on them in a new light. And what you see becomes the | healing and salvation of the world. The valuable and valueless are |
| W1:165.3 | Who would deny his safety and his peace, his joy, his | healing and his peace of mind, his quiet rest, his calm awakening if |
| W1:166.14 | Your tears are theirs. If you are sick, you but withhold their | healing. What you fear but teaches them their fears are justified. |
| W1:167.3 | about yourself. It is the reason you can heal. It is the cause of | healing. It is why you cannot die. Its truth established you as one |
| W1:193.15 | about all things we saved to settle by ourselves and kept apart from | healing. Let us give them all to Him Who knows the way to look upon |
| W1:196.1 | yourself. And you will understand his safety is your own, and in his | healing you are healed. |
| W2:WS.2 | and merely was. But when the mind is split, there is a need of | healing. So the thought which has the power to heal the split became |
| W2:270.2 | everyone. Christ is our eyes today. And through His sight, we offer | healing to the world through Him, the holy Son whom God created |
| W2:275.1 | apart. It is in this that all things are protected. And in this the | healing of the Voice of God is found. |
| W2:275.2 | Your | healing Voice protects all things today, and so I leave all things to |
| W2:323.1 | doubt and freely let Your Love come streaming in to his awareness, | healing him of pain and giving him Your own eternal joy. Such is the |
| W2:WIM.5 | Miracles fall like drops of | healing rain from Heaven on a dry and dusty world, where starved and |
| W2:349.1 | me a miracle to give. And giving as I would receive, I learn Your | healing miracles belong to me. |
| M:5.1 | Healing involves an understanding of what the illusion of sickness is | |
| M:5.1 | involves an understanding of what the illusion of sickness is for. | Healing is impossible without this. |
| M:5.2 | Healing is accomplished the instant the sufferer no longer sees any | |
| M:5.3 | And what, in this insane conviction, does | healing stand for? It symbolizes the defeat of God's Son and the |

| M:6.1 | Healing is always certain. It is impossible to let illusions be | |

| M:6.1 | believing healing is the way to death? When this is so, a sudden | healing might precipitate intense depression, and a sense of loss so |
| M:6.1 | destroy himself. Having nothing to live for, he may ask for death. | Healing must wait, for his protection. |
| M:6.2 | Healing will always stand aside when it would be seen as threat. The | |

| M:6.2 | No teacher of God should feel disappointed if he has offered | healing and it does not appear to have been received. It is not up to |

| M:7.1 | This question really answers itself. | Healing cannot be repeated. If the patient is healed, what remains to |
| M:7.1 | If the patient is healed, what remains to heal him from? And if the | healing is certain, as we have already said it is, what is there to |
| M:7.1 | repeat? For a teacher of God to remain concerned about the result of | healing is to limit the healing. It is now the teacher of God himself |

| M:7.2 | Whenever a teacher of God has tried to be a channel for | healing, he has succeeded. Should he be tempted to doubt this, he |

| M:7.4 | One of the most difficult temptations to recognize is that to doubt a | healing because of the appearance of continuing symptoms is a mistake |

| Tx:24.65 | hurt. What would you save it for? For in that choice lie both its | health and harm. Save it for show, as bait to catch another fish, to |

| Tx:9.82 | the god of sickness, and by making him, you made yourself able to | hear him. Yet you did not create him, because he is not the Will of |
| Tx:9.99 | every part of the Sonship because of His love for His Son. If you | hear His message, He has answered you, and you will learn of Him if |
| Tx:9.99 | His message, He has answered you, and you will learn of Him if you | hear aright. The love of God is in everything He created, for His Son |
| Tx:10.15 | know it, for sharing is knowing. Blessed are you who learn that to | hear the Will of your Father is to know your own. For it is your will |
| Tx:10.35 | Son. When His Son lifts his voice in praise of his Creator, he will | hear the Voice of his Father. Yet the Creator cannot be praised |

| Tx:11.8 | Father closer to your awareness. For the sake of your need, then, | hear every call for help as what it is, so God can answer you. |
| Tx:11.72 | your call and I have answered it, but you will not look upon me nor | hear the answer which you sought. That is because you do not yet want |
| Tx:12.38 | You see what is not there, and you | hear what is soundless. Your behavioral manifestations of emotions |
| Tx:12.38 | own split mind everywhere you look. God calls you and you do not | hear, for you are preoccupied with your own voice. And the vision of |
| Tx:12.62 | Love always answers, being unable to deny a call for help or not to | hear the cries of pain that rise to it from every part of this |
| Tx:13.33 | My trust in you is without limit and without the fear that you will | hear me not. I thank the Father for your loveliness and for the many |
| Tx:14.2 | you. You who have thrown your selves away and valued God so little, | hear me speak for Him and for yourselves. You cannot understand how |
| Tx:15.19 | the witness to Him will speak so clearly of Him that you will | hear and understand. |
| Tx:15.20 | You will doubt until you | hear one witness whom you have wholly released through the Holy |
| Tx:15.34 | where you would help your brother be, there will you think you are. | Hear not his call for hell and littleness, but only his call for |
| Tx:15.75 | is, you will feel guilty about communication and will be afraid to | hear the Holy Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own need to |
| Tx:15.80 | Hear Him gladly and learn of Him that you have need of no special | |
| Tx:15.89 | you would experience the attraction of the eternal. No one can | hear Him speak of this and long remain willing to linger here. For it |
| Tx:16.18 | of it so clearly that only the blind and deaf could fail to see and | hear them. This year, determine not to deny what has been given you |
| Tx:16.40 | the journey seems to be. Love calls, but hate would have you stay. | Hear not the call of hate, and see no fantasies[, for your completion |
| Tx:17.14 | he did what he did not. Because you brought them, you will | hear them. And you who kept them by your own selection do not |
| Tx:17.15 | separation that no one not obsessed with keeping separation could | hear them. They offer you the “reasons” why you should enter into |
| Tx:17.29 | the aim of occupying your minds so completely that you will not | hear the call of truth. In a sense the special relationship was the |
| Tx:17.49 | exclude major areas of fantasy from each other to save your sanity. | Hear not this now! Have faith in Him Who answered you. He heard. Has |
| Tx:18.12 | Whom God has called should | hear no substitutes. Their call is but an echo of the original error |
| Tx:19.75 | Hear not its madness, and believe not the impossible is true. Forget | |
| Tx:19.78 | See him throw aside the black robe he was wearing to his funeral and | hear him laugh at death. The sentence sin would lay upon him he can |
| Tx:20.10 | no plaything to be tossed about a while and laid aside. Listen and | hear this carefully, nor think it but a dream—a careless thought to |
| Tx:20.12 | called to you since time began, nor have you ever failed entirely to | hear. You heard but knew not how to look nor where. And now you know. |
| Tx:21.44 | on to reason. And what your reason tells you now, the ego would not | hear. The Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted by the part of your mind |
| Tx:21.47 | the other part hears as the sweetest music—the song it longed to | hear since first the ego came into your minds. The ego's weakness is |
| Tx:21.49 | the ego's raucous screams and senseless ravings to those who want to | hear it. Perception is a choice and not a fact. But on this choice |
| Tx:21.49 | far more than you may realize as yet. For on the voice you choose to | hear and on the sights you choose to see, depends entirely your whole |
| Tx:22.25 | Are you not glad to learn it is not true? Is it not welcome news to | hear not one of the illusions that you made replaced the truth? |
| Tx:24.15 | silent and unheard before its “mightiness.” You strain your ears to | hear its soundless voice, and yet the Call of God Himself is |
| Tx:24.16 | You can defend your specialness, but never will you | hear the Voice for God beside it. They speak a different language and |
| Tx:24.16 | can truth be different to each one? The special messages the special | hear convince them they are different and apart—each in his special |
| Tx:24.17 | the only “cost” of truth: you will no longer see what never was, nor | hear what makes no sound. Is it a sacrifice to give up nothing and to |
| Tx:24.32 | them to come forth and waken from their dream of death. Yet they | hear nothing. They are lost in dreams of specialness. They hate the |
| Tx:24.42 | and heard and where he will see nothing and there is no sound to | hear. |
| Tx:24.44 | strength their purpose holds is given them. And what they see and | hear and hold and lead is given light that you may lead as you were |
| Tx:24.45 | you see is like yourself. For what but Christ is there to see and | hear and love and follow home? He looked upon you first but |
| Tx:24.46 | their sightless eyes and sings to them of Heaven that their ears may | hear no more the sound of battle and of death. He reaches through |
| Tx:24.46 | Christ is all there is to see. The song of Christ is all there is to | hear. The hand of Christ is all there is to hold. There is no journey |
| Tx:24.70 | that it is there because you still can feel it with your hands and | hear it move. Here is an image that you want to be yourself. It is |
| Tx:25.28 | his anger turned to an event which justifies his love. He will | hear plainly that the calls to war he heard before are really calls |
| Tx:25.39 | And hate because there is no sin in him for you to see. Nor do you | hear his plaintive call, unchanged in content in whatever form the |
| Tx:25.39 | shrieks, such is the call that God has given him that you might | hear in him His Call to you and answer by returning unto God what is |
| Tx:26.6 | Holy Spirit from His task of showing you that it has not been lost. | Hear then the song your brother sings to you. And let the world |
| Tx:26.6 | witness offers on behalf of peace. But judge him not, for you will | hear no song of liberation for yourself nor see what it is given him |
| Tx:26.37 | the place whereon he stands? Is any echo from the past that he may | hear a fact in what is there to hear where he is now? And how much |

| Tx:31.17 | Hear the one, and you are separate from him and are lost. But | hear the other, and you join with him, and in your answer is |

| Tx:31.22 | and in need of care. There will be no assault upon your wish to | hear a call that never has been made. Nothing will hurt you in this |
| Tx:31.22 | want. No more than this will you be asked to learn. But as you | hear it, you will understand you need but come away without the |
| Tx:31.23 | lessons that you taught yourself about the sinfulness in you. | Hear but his call for mercy and release from all the fearful images |
| Tx:31.59 | of guilt. There is no statement that the world is more afraid to | hear than this: |

| Tx:31.94 | call in vain, and in His certainty I rest content. For you will | hear, and you will choose again. And in this choice is everyone made |
| W1:22.2 | savage fantasy that you want to escape. Is it not joyous news to | hear that it is not real? Is it not a happy discovery to find that |
| W1:49.2 | part of your mind where stillness and peace reign forever. Try to | hear God's Voice call to you lovingly, reminding you that your |
| W1:49.3 | practice periods today and more if possible. We will try actually to | hear the Voice reminding you of God and of your Self. We will |
| W1:49.3 | so we are joining our will with the Will of God. He wants you to | hear His Voice. He gave It to you to be heard. |
| W1:66.12 | to the Holy Spirit's Voice. You will listen to madness or | hear the truth. Try to make this choice as you think about the |

| W1:71.12 | in proportion to your willingness to hear His Voice. Refuse not to | hear. The very fact that you are doing the exercises proves that you |
| W1:72.8 | your grievances against Him and His creation, that you may not | hear the Voice of truth and welcome it as Friend. Your chosen savior |
| W1:72.14 | We have attacked God's plan for salvation without waiting to | hear what it is. We have shouted our grievances so loudly that we |
| W1:72.14 | grievances to close our eyes and stop our ears. Now we would see and | hear and learn. “What is salvation, Father?” Ask and you will be |
| W1:72.17 | He will answer. Be determined to | hear. |
| W1:76.10 | magical beliefs today and hold your mind in silent readiness to | hear the Voice that speaks the truth to you. You will be listening to |
| W1:76.11 | Hear Him Who tells you this, and realize how foolish are the laws you | |
| W1:95.2 | by its erratic and capricious maker, to which you pray. It does not | hear your prayers, for it is deaf. It does not see the oneness in |
| W1:95.3 | We will attempt today to be aware of only what can | hear and see and what makes perfect sense. We will again direct our |

| W1:106.1 | open mind, which has not told you what salvation is; then you will | hear the mighty Voice of truth, quiet in power, strong in stillness, |
| W1:106.2 | Listen and | hear your Father speak to you through His appointed Voice, Which |
| W1:106.3 | voices of the world; walk lightly past their meaningless persuasion. | Hear them not. Be still today, and listen to the truth. Go past all |
| W1:106.3 | happiness within His hand, held out to you in welcome and in love. | Hear only Him today, and do not wait to reach Him longer. Hear one |
| W1:106.3 | in love. Hear only Him today, and do not wait to reach Him longer. | Hear one Voice today. |
| W1:106.4 | Today the promise of God's Word is kept. | Hear and be silent. He would speak to you. He comes with miracles a |
| W1:106.5 | Father's ancient pledge to you and all your brothers to be kept. | Hear Him today, and listen to the Word which lifts the veil which |
| W1:106.6 | Hear Him today, and offer Him your voice to speak to all the | |
| W1:106.6 | and offer Him your voice to speak to all the multitudes who wait to | hear the Word that He will speak today. Be ready for salvation. It is |
| W1:106.7 | Listen today, and you will | hear a Voice Which will resound throughout the world through you. The |
| W1:106.11 | listening, a thousand minds are opened to the truth. And they will | hear the holy Word you hear. And when the hour is past, you will |
| W1:106.11 | minds are opened to the truth. And they will hear the holy Word you | hear. And when the hour is past, you will again release a thousand |
| W1:106.12 | learning it of Him. Do not forget today to reinforce your choice to | hear and to receive the Word by this reminder, given to yourself as |
| W1:109.4 | on you. You call to all to join you in your rest, and they will | hear and come to you because you rest in God. They will not hear |
| W1:109.4 | will hear and come to you because you rest in God. They will not | hear another voice but yours because you gave your voice to God and |
| W1:109.8 | and tired minds, too weary now to go their way alone. And they will | hear the bird begin to sing and see the stream begin to flow again, |
| W1:118.3 | listen to the truth. Let mine own feeble voice be still, and let me | hear the mighty Voice of truth itself assure me that I am God's |
| W1:122.4 | questions, meaningless requests, half-hearted willingness to | hear, and less than halfway diligence and partial trust. |
| W1:125.1 | be a day of stillness and of quiet listening. Your Father wills you | hear His Word today. He calls to you from deep within your mind where |
| W1:125.1 | today. He calls to you from deep within your mind where He abides. | Hear Him today. No peace is possible until His Word is heard around |
| W1:125.1 | mind, in quiet listening, accepts the message which the world must | hear to usher in the quiet time of peace. |
| W1:125.3 | In stillness we will | hear God's Voice today without intrusion of our petty thoughts, |
| W1:125.4 | Hear, holy Son of God, your Father speak. His Voice would give to you | |
| W1:125.6 | to be called upon today to help make ready your most holy mind to | hear the Voice of its Creator speak. |
| W1:125.9 | your vision from the body's eyes. Only be still and listen. You will | hear the Word in which the Will of God the Son joins in His Father's |
| W1:126.10 | what it really means. Be willing to be taught. Be glad to | hear the Voice of truth and healing speak to you, and you will |
| W1:126.13 | opening your mind to His correction and His Love. And what you | hear of Him you will believe, for what He gives will be received by |
| W1:127.5 | death. Yet it is perfectly apparent to eyes that see and ears that | hear its Voice. |
| W1:140.10 | saneness to the Son of God. No voice but this can cure. Today we | hear a single Voice which speaks to us of truth where all illusions |
| W1:140.11 | no need to make them different and thus delay the time when we can | hear our Father speak to us. We hear Him now. We come to Him today. |
| W1:140.11 | and thus delay the time when we can hear our Father speak to us. We | hear Him now. We come to Him today. |
| W1:140.14 | prayer for healing hourly and take a minute as the hour strikes to | hear the answer to our prayer be given us as we attend in silence and |
| W1:151.6 | Hear not its voice. The witnesses it sends to prove to you its evil | |
| W1:151.9 | the glory of the Father and the Son? What whispers of the ego can He | hear? What could convince Him that your sins are real? |
| W1:151.12 | with Him. So will you see the holy face of Christ in everything and | hear in everything no sound except the echo of God's Voice. |
| W1:151.15 | the holy lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you | hear the Voice for God give honor to God's Son. And everyone will |
| W1:153.18 | In time, with practice, you will never cease to think of Him and | hear His loving Voice guiding your footsteps into quiet ways where |
| W1:154.3 | It is through His ability to | hear One Voice Which is His own that you become aware at last there |
| W1:154.10 | minds apart from Him Who speaks for us, for it is but our voice we | hear as we attend Him. He alone can speak to us and for us, joining |
| W1:155.6 | them. Yet it has stepped back, and it is not illusion that they | hear you speak of nor illusion which you bring their eyes to look on |
| W1:160.8 | His Son forever. He has answered you who ask, “Who is the stranger?” | Hear His Voice assure you, quietly and sure, that you are not a |
| W1:161.2 | to see. All hearing but brings to your mind the sounds it wants to | hear. |
| W1:161.15 | And He will answer Whom you called upon, for He will | hear the Voice of God in you and answer in your own. Behold him now |
| W1:162.2 | world. The dead awake in answer to its call. And those who live and | hear this sound will never look on death. |
| W1:169.3 | aspires to attain. Yet we prepare for grace in that an open mind can | hear the call to waken. It is not shut tight against God's Voice. It |
| W1:R5.11 | be then your gift to me. For this alone I need—that you will | hear the words I speak and give them to the world. You are my voice, |
| W1:182.7 | alien thoughts. His patience has no limits. He will wait until you | hear His gentle Voice within you, calling you to let Him go in peace |
| W1:182.8 | ideas cease to have value in your restless mind, then will you | hear His Voice. So poignantly He calls to you that you will not |
| W1:182.12 | this you yearn. This is your heart's desire. This is the Voice you | hear, and this the Call which cannot be denied. The holy Child |
| W1:183.3 | healed of their sickly thoughts. The blind can see; the deaf can | hear; the sorrowful cast off their mourning, and the tears of pain |
| W1:183.7 | Hear nothing else. Let all your thoughts become anchored on this. No | |
| W1:183.8 | idols cherished by the world. They cannot reach Him thus. He cannot | hear requests that He be not Himself or that His Son receive another |
| W1:186.5 | which might affront their stance. Yet are the humble free to | hear the Voice which tells them what they are and what to do. |
| W1:186.12 | inconsistent and unsure of everything? Let not its voice direct you. | Hear instead a certain Voice Which tells you of a function given you |
| W1:191.11 | and devastated dreams, born but to die, to weep, and suffer pain, | hear this: all power is given you in earth and Heaven. There is |
| W1:195.7 | in our memory and gathers clarity as we are willing once again to | hear. |
| W1:198.5 | His gift with gratitude? And is it not a kindness to yourself to | hear His Voice and learn the simple lessons He would teach, instead |
| W1:198.6 | born in God, and come to you with Heaven's love upon them. Those who | hear His words have heard the song of Heaven, for these are the words |
| W1:199.9 | I am not a body. I am free. I | hear the Voice that God has given me, and it is only this my mind |
| W1:200.9 | let him stray forever from his home. The Father calls; the Son will | hear. And that is all there is to what appears to be a world apart |
| W2:221.1 | and listen for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me today. I come to | hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will |
| W2:221.1 | hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will | hear my call and answer me. |
| W2:221.2 | we wait together. I am sure that He will speak to you, and you will | hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours. Our minds are joined. We |
| W2:221.2 | for it is yours. Our minds are joined. We wait with one intent—to | hear our Father's answer to our call, to let our thoughts be still |
| W2:221.2 | to our call, to let our thoughts be still and find His peace, to | hear Him speak to us of what we are, and to reveal Himself unto His |
| W2:226.2 | Father, my home awaits my glad return. Your arms are open, and I | hear Your Voice. What need have I to linger in a place of vain |
| W2:232.1 | that You have remained with me and always will be there to | hear my call to You and answer me. As evening comes, let all my |
| W2:237.1 | the day. I bring the world the tidings of salvation that I | hear as God my Father speaks to me. And I behold the world that |
| W2:WIW.2 | could not cause such insane thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears | hear falsely. Now mistakes become quite possible, for certainty has |
| W2:WIW.4 | to the world. Follow His light and see the world as He beholds it. | Hear His Voice alone in all that speaks to you. And let Him give you |
| W2:245.2 | world we give the message that we have received. And thus we come to | hear the Voice of God, Who speaks to us as we relate His Word, Whose |
| W2:WIS.1 | What need have they of sights or sounds or touch? What would they | hear or reach to grasp? What would they sense at all? To sense is not |
| W2:254.1 | Father, today I would but | hear Your Voice. In deepest silence, I would come to You to hear Your |
| W2:254.1 | but hear Your Voice. In deepest silence, I would come to You to | hear Your Voice and to receive Your Word. I have no prayer but this: |
| W2:256.2 | we come to You in Your appointed way. We have no goal except to | hear Your Voice and find the way Your sacred Word has pointed out to |
| W2:264.1 | everywhere I go. You are in all the things I look upon, the sounds I | hear, and every hand that reaches for my own. In You time disappears |
| W2:271.1 | I am choosing what I want to look upon, the sounds I want to | hear, the witnesses to what I want to be the truth for me. Today I |
| W2:272.2 | Today we pass illusions by. And if we | hear temptation call to us to stay and linger in a dream, we turn |
| W2:275.1 | day. Yet has this day been chosen as the time when we will seek and | hear and learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For the Voice of |
| W2:290.2 | me up today while I but seek to do Your Will. You cannot fail to | hear me, Father. What I ask have You already given me, and I am sure |
| W2:296.1 | my voice today, that all the world may listen to Your Voice and | hear Your Word through me. I am resolved to let You speak through me, |
| W2:296.1 | For having damned it, I would set it free that I may find escape and | hear the Word Your holy Voice will speak to me today. |
| W2:303.1 | disappear. Let Christ be welcomed where He is at home, and let Him | hear the sounds He understands and see but sights which show His |
| W2:WILJ.1 | Christ's Second Coming gives the Son of God the gift to | hear the Voice for God proclaim that what is false is false and what |
| W2:311.2 | Father, we wait with open mind today to | hear Your Judgment of the Son You love. We do not know him, and we |
| W2:WICR.5 | Our Father calls to us. We | hear His Voice, and we forgive creation in the name of its Creator, |
| W2:327.1 | on the basis of an unsupported faith. For God has promised He will | hear my call and answer me Himself. Let me but learn from my |
| W2:334.1 | again today. God's Voice is offering the peace of God to all who | hear and choose to follow Him. This is my choice today. And so I go |
| W2:339.2 | is Your day. It is a day in which I would do nothing by myself but | hear Your Voice in everything I do; requesting only what You offer |
| W2:340.1 | today Your Son will be redeemed. His suffering is done. For he will | hear Your Voice directing him to find Christ's vision through |
| W2:347.2 | Listen today. Be very still and | hear the gentle Voice for God assuring you that He has judged you as |
| W2:WAI.4 | a world redeemed from every thought of sin. Ours are the ears that | hear the Voice of God proclaim the world as sinless. Ours the minds |
| W2:352.1 | both the memory of You and One Who leads me to it. Father, I would | hear Your Voice and find Your peace today. For I would love my own |
| W2:357.1 | in my brother, then in me. Your Voice instructs me patiently to | hear Your Word and give as I receive. And as I look upon Your Son |
| W2:357.1 | Word and give as I receive. And as I look upon Your Son today, I | hear Your Voice instructing me to find the way to You as You |
| W2:361.1 | I will receive of Him. He is in charge by my request. And He will | hear and answer me because He speaks for God, my Father, and His holy |
| W2:E.3 | lessons are assigned, for there is no more need of them. Henceforth, | hear but the Voice for God and for your Self when you retire from the |
| M:1.2 | It calls for teachers to speak for it and redeem the world. Many | hear it, but few will answer. But it is all a matter of time. |
| M:12.3 | reality is not understandable to the deluded. Only a very few can | hear God's Voice at all, and even they cannot communicate His |
| M:15.1 | will welcome it, and on that very day it will be given him. He will | hear his sinlessness proclaimed around and around the world, setting |
| M:15.1 | comes near, and silence lies across the world that everyone may | hear this judgment of the Son of God: |
| M:15.3 | goal—why you are here. It is your function to prepare yourself to | hear this judgment and to recognize that it is true. One instant of |
| M:15.3 | the world, teacher of God? Have you yet learned to stand aside and | hear the Voice of Judgment in yourself? Or do you still attempt to |
| M:18.3 | God's Word. The body's eyes now “see”; its ears alone are thought to | hear. Its little space and tiny breath become the measure of reality. |
| M:21.4 | are many who must be reached through words, being as yet unable to | hear in silence. The teacher of God must, however, learn to use words |

| W1:125.1 | He abides. Hear Him today. No peace is possible until His Word is | heard around the world; until your mind, in quiet listening, accepts |
| W1:125.6 | speaks to you. His Voice awaits your silence, for His Word cannot be | heard until your mind is quiet for a while and meaningless desires |
| W1:152.3 | that the truth is true and nothing else is true. This you have | heard before, but may not yet accept both parts of it. Without the |

| Tx:4.41 | not mean anything. The word “within” is unnecessary. The Kingdom of | Heaven is you. What else but you did the Creator create, and what |
| Tx:5.13 | perception in which many elements are like those in the Kingdom of | Heaven itself. |
| Tx:5.21 | You are the Kingdom of | Heaven, but you have let the belief in darkness enter your minds, and |
| Tx:5.21 | is the glory before which dissociation falls away and the Kingdom of | Heaven breaks through into its own. Before the separation you did not |
| Tx:5.26 | is the way in which God's Will can be done on earth as it is in | Heaven. Both Heaven and earth are in you, because the call of both is |
| Tx:5.26 | in which God's Will can be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Both | Heaven and earth are in you, because the call of both is in your will |
| Tx:5.27 | created as equals. It was only my decision that gave me all power in | Heaven and earth. My only gift to you is to help you make the same |
| Tx:5.56 | Him and which He also keeps for you. And of such is the Kingdom of | Heaven. All the rest remains with you until He has reinterpreted them |
| Tx:5.59 | because your mind has all the means at its disposal to side with | Heaven or earth, as it elects. But again, let us remember that both |
| Tx:5.59 | as it elects. But again, let us remember that both are in you. In | Heaven there is no guilt, because the Kingdom is attained through the |
| Tx:7.38 | Seek ye first the Kingdom of | Heaven, because that is where the laws of God operate truly, and they |
| Tx:7.78 | he believes that his brother is attacking him to tear the Kingdom of | Heaven from him. This is the ultimate basis for all of the ego's |
| Tx:7.110 | to everything you see and touch and remember are literally denying | Heaven to yourselves. I call upon you again to remember that I have |
| Tx:9.79 | know his Father. Health in this world is the counterpart of value in | Heaven. It is not my merit that I contribute to you but my love, for |
| Tx:9.103 | for him and what he himself had created in the Name of his Father. | Heaven waits for his return, for it was created as the dwelling place |
| Tx:10.25 | and your heart will be so filled with joy that it will leap into | Heaven and into the Presence of God. I cannot tell you what this will |
| Tx:10.69 | be another world which you do not see. The Bible speaks of a new | Heaven and a new earth, yet this cannot be literally true, for the |
| Tx:10.71 | the real world, and perceiving only this will lead you to the real | Heaven because it will make you capable of understanding it. |
| Tx:10.75 | be forgotten, the good and the bad, the false and the true. For as | Heaven and earth become one, even the real world will vanish from |
| Tx:10.75 | end of the world is not its destruction, but its translation into | Heaven. The re-interpretation of the world is the transfer of all |
| Tx:10.83 | I promised you. Do you believe I would deceive you? The Kingdom of | Heaven is within you. Believe that the truth is in me, for I know |
| Tx:10.86 | your healing without his. For you share the real world as you share | Heaven, and his healing is yours. To love yourself is to heal |
| Tx:11.41 | you have sold everything else. Yet you cannot sell the Kingdom of | Heaven. Your inheritance can neither be bought nor sold. There can be |
| Tx:11.57 | with you. He will show you the real world because God gave you | Heaven. Through Him your Father calls His Son to remember. The |
| Tx:11.60 | into the purpose of God. For the real world has slipped quietly into | Heaven, where everything eternal in it has always been. There the |
| Tx:11.60 | and the redeemed join in perfect love of God and of each other. | Heaven is your home, and being in God, it must also be in you. |
| Tx:11.64 | Spirit's work, for you share in His function. As your function in | Heaven is creation, so your function on earth is healing. God shares |
| Tx:11.64 | function on earth is healing. God shares His function with you in | Heaven, and the Holy Spirit shares His with you on earth. |
| Tx:12.9 | is the recognition of love without fear. There will be great joy in | Heaven on your homecoming, and the joy will be yours. For the |
| Tx:12.12 | for your Father would impel you to answer His call and leap into | Heaven. You believe that attack is salvation to prevent you from |
| Tx:12.23 | that your function in this world is healing, and your function in | Heaven is creating. The ego teaches that your function on earth is |
| Tx:12.23 | on earth is destruction and that you have no function at all in | Heaven. It would thus destroy you here and bury you here, leaving you |
| Tx:12.24 | Yet neither oblivion nor hell is as unacceptable to you as | Heaven. For your definition of Heaven is hell and oblivion, and the |
| Tx:12.24 | nor hell is as unacceptable to you as Heaven. For your definition of | Heaven is hell and oblivion, and the real Heaven is the greatest |
| Tx:12.24 | For your definition of Heaven is hell and oblivion, and the real | Heaven is the greatest threat you think you could experience. For |
| Tx:12.25 | must come to this and needs this to prove that it was. You question | Heaven, but you do not question this. You could heal and be healed if |
| Tx:12.25 | and be healed if you did question it. And even though you know not | Heaven, might it not be more desirable than death? You have been as |
| Tx:12.68 | Your Father knoweth that you have need of nothing. In | Heaven this is so, for what could you need in eternity? In your world |
| Tx:13.2 | Holy Spirit, as perfect as perception can be, is without meaning in | Heaven. Perception can reach everywhere under His guidance, for the |
| Tx:13.3 | of reality with no effect at all. The miracle, without a function in | Heaven, is needful here. Aspects of reality can still be seen, and |
| Tx:13.4 | spring to light under His loving gaze are partial glimpses of the | Heaven that lies beyond them. |
| Tx:13.9 | to your brothers, so do your creations establish your fatherhood in | Heaven. You are the witnesses to the Fatherhood of God, and He has |
| Tx:13.9 | a brother here, and you deny the witnesses to] your fatherhood in | Heaven. The miracle which God created is perfect, as are the miracles |
| Tx:13.10 | Son and to Himself. The miracles you do on earth are lifted up to | Heaven and to Him. They witness to what you do not know, and as they |
| Tx:13.10 | They witness to what you do not know, and as they reach the gates of | Heaven, God will open them. For never would He leave His own beloved |
| Tx:13.16 | With everyone whom you release from guilt, great is the joy in | Heaven, where the witnesses to your fatherhood rejoice. |
| Tx:13.34 | praise of you. United in this praise, we stand before the gates of | Heaven where we will surely enter in our blamelessness. God loves |
| Tx:13.36 | The war is gone. For you have heard the hymn of freedom rising unto | Heaven. Gladness and joy belong to God for your release, because you |
| Tx:13.37 | When we are all united in | Heaven, you will value nothing that you value here. For nothing that |
| Tx:13.37 | or not. To value it partially is not to know its value. In | Heaven is everything God valued and nothing else. Heaven is perfectly |
| Tx:13.37 | know its value. In Heaven is everything God valued and nothing else. | Heaven is perfectly unambiguous. Everything is clear and bright and |
| Tx:13.40 | You will not remember change and shift in | Heaven. You have need of contrast only here. Contrast and differences |
| Tx:13.41 | only this one thing, and it will be sufficient: God wills you be in | Heaven, and nothing can keep you from it or it from you. Your wildest |
| Tx:13.43 | God willed you | Heaven and will always will you nothing else. The Holy Spirit knows |
| Tx:13.43 | The Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. There is no chance that | Heaven will not be yours, for God is sure, and what He wills is as |
| Tx:13.44 | remain unchanged throughout eternity. You do not have to know that | Heaven is yours to make it so. It is so. Yet the Will of God must be |
| Tx:13.46 | reconciliation with truth, and only truth, in which the peace of | Heaven lies. |
| Tx:13.47 | They take a direction exactly opposite, pointing as clearly to | Heaven as the ego points to darkness and to death. We have followed |
| Tx:13.66 | allays. Learning is living here, as creating is being in | Heaven. Whenever the pain of guilt seems to attract you, remember |
| Tx:13.79 | feel guilty for this imagined crime, which no one in this world or | Heaven could possibly commit. God's Spirit teaches only that the |
| Tx:13.91 | yourself, remember that you have decided against your function in | Heaven and consider carefully whether you want to make decisions |
| Tx:14.3 | The Children of | Heaven live in the light of the blessing of their Father because they |
| Tx:14.3 | guiltlessness to the mind which has denied it and thus denied | Heaven to itself. Atonement teaches you the true condition of the Son |
| Tx:14.5 | immutable. Leave the world of death behind, and return quietly to | Heaven. There is nothing of value here and everything of value there. |
| Tx:14.10 | creation. And every teaching that points to this points straight to | Heaven and to the peace of God. There is no pain, no trial, no fear |
| Tx:14.37 | those He gives the power to create like Him can never be dissolved. | Heaven itself is union with all of creation and with its One Creator. |
| Tx:14.37 | itself is union with all of creation and with its One Creator. And | Heaven remains the Will of God for you. Lay no gifts other than this |
| Tx:14.42 | Creator shines forth from you to all around you. You can reflect | Heaven here. Yet no reflections of the images of other gods must dim |
| Tx:14.42 | the mirror that would hold God's reflection in it. Earth can reflect | Heaven or hell; God or the ego. You need but leave the mirror clean |
| Tx:14.45 | because of the reflection of holiness in them are ready at last for | Heaven. There, holiness is not a reflection but rather the actual |
| Tx:14.46 | holiness calls everyone to lay all guilt aside. Reflect the peace of | Heaven here and bring this world to Heaven. For the reflection of |
| Tx:14.46 | aside. Reflect the peace of Heaven here and bring this world to | Heaven. For the reflection of truth draws everyone to truth, and as |
| Tx:14.47 | In | Heaven reality is shared and not reflected. By sharing its reflection |
| Tx:14.49 | mind of those who think they live apart. For some are reflections of | Heaven, while others are motivated by the ego, which but seems to |
| Tx:14.49 | unceasingly across the mirror of your mind, and the reflections of | Heaven last but a moment and grow dim as darkness blots them out. |
| Tx:15.3 | for you, it offers you immortality in hell. It speaks to you of | Heaven but assures you that Heaven is not for you. How can the guilty |
| Tx:15.3 | immortality in hell. It speaks to you of Heaven but assures you that | Heaven is not for you. How can the guilty hope for Heaven? The belief |
| Tx:15.3 | assures you that Heaven is not for you. How can the guilty hope for | Heaven? The belief in hell is inescapable to those who identify with |
| Tx:15.5 | reconciled. The ego teaches thus: Death is the end as far as hope of | Heaven goes. Yet because you and itself cannot be separated, and |
| Tx:15.6 | The ego teaches that | Heaven is here and now because the future is hell. Even when it |
| Tx:15.8 | because you are afraid of it. The Holy Spirit leads as steadily to | Heaven as the ego drives to hell. For the Holy Spirit, Who knows only |
| Tx:15.11 | more than merely hell does not exist. In this redeeming instant lies | Heaven. And Heaven will not change, for the birth into the holy |
| Tx:15.11 | hell does not exist. In this redeeming instant lies Heaven. And | Heaven will not change, for the birth into the holy present is |
| Tx:15.11 | who could not see themselves as guiltless. There is no change in | Heaven because there is no change in God. In the holy instant in |
| Tx:15.12 | this than for Him to use this tiny instant to offer you the whole of | Heaven. In exchange for this instant, He stands ready to give you the |
| Tx:15.14 | who share it with you. As long as it takes to exchange hell for | Heaven. Long enough to transcend all of the ego's making and ascend |
| Tx:15.17 | you stand before God's altar, where He gently translates hell into | Heaven. For it is only in Heaven that God would have you be. |
| Tx:15.17 | where He gently translates hell into Heaven. For it is only in | Heaven that God would have you be. |
| Tx:15.27 | little whom God has joined with Him. Every decision you make is for | Heaven or for hell and will bring you awareness of what you decided |
| Tx:15.34 | Call forth in everyone only the remembrance of God and of the | Heaven that is in him. For where you would help your brother be, |
| Tx:15.34 | Hear not his call for hell and littleness, but only his call for | Heaven and greatness. Forget not that his call is yours, and answer |
| Tx:15.34 | His holy altar, which rises above the stars and reaches even to | Heaven because of what is given it. |
| Tx:15.51 | a picture whose likeness does not exist. For there is nothing in | Heaven or earth that it resembles, and so however much you seek for |
| Tx:15.52 | has formed special relationships, and although this is not so in | Heaven, the Holy Spirit knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them |
| Tx:15.52 | is not so in Heaven, the Holy Spirit knows how to bring a touch of | Heaven to them here. In the holy instant no one is special, for your |
| Tx:15.88 | It is impossible to divide your strength between | Heaven and hell, God and the ego, and release your power unto |
| Tx:15.88 | and their union need only be accepted, and the loneliness in | Heaven is gone. |
| Tx:15.89 | and long remain willing to linger here. For it is your will to be in | Heaven, where you are complete and quiet in such sure and loving |
| Tx:15.102 | a light in darkness. See it not outside yourself but shining in the | Heaven within and accept it as the sign the time of Christ has come. |
| Tx:15.104 | in peace? And who can try to resolve the perceived conflict of | Heaven and hell in him by casting Heaven out and giving it the |
| Tx:15.104 | resolve the perceived conflict of Heaven and hell in him by casting | Heaven out and giving it the attributes of hell without experiencing |
| Tx:15.105 | of sacrifice, justified in sacrificing others. For who could thrust | Heaven and its Creator aside without a sense of sacrifice and loss? |
| Tx:16.28 | His little efforts are powerfully supplemented by the strength of | Heaven and by the united will of all who make Heaven what it is, |
| Tx:16.28 | by the strength of Heaven and by the united will of all who make | Heaven what it is, being joined within it. And so the one who would |
| Tx:16.37 | Heaven waits silently, and your creations are holding out their hands | |
| Tx:16.44 | love relationship is the ego's chief weapon for keeping you from | Heaven. It does not appear to be a weapon, but if you consider how |
| Tx:16.45 | all seem to be the unnatural ones. For this world is the opposite of | Heaven, being made to be its opposite, and everything here takes a |
| Tx:16.45 | here takes a direction exactly opposite of what is true. In | Heaven, where the meaning of love is known, love is the same as |
| Tx:16.46 | of the ego that you believe this specialness is not hell, but | Heaven. For the ego would never have you see that separation can only |
| Tx:16.46 | that separation can only be loss, being the one condition in which | Heaven cannot be. |
| Tx:16.47 | To everyone | Heaven is completion. There can be no disagreement on this, because |
| Tx:16.47 | for nothing would remain to interfere with it. This is its idea of | Heaven. From this it follows that union, which is a condition in |
| Tx:16.48 | is a strange and unnatural ego device for joining hell and | Heaven and making them indistinguishable. And the attempt to find the |
| Tx:16.50 | see this special self in each other, the ego sees “a union made in | Heaven.” For neither one will recognize that he has asked for hell, |
| Tx:16.50 | for hell, and so he will not interfere with the ego's illusion of | Heaven, which it offered him to interfere with Heaven. Yet if all |
| Tx:16.50 | the ego's illusion of Heaven, which it offered him to interfere with | Heaven. Yet if all illusions are of fear, and they can be of nothing |
| Tx:16.50 | are of fear, and they can be of nothing else, the illusion of | Heaven is nothing more than an “attractive” form of fear in which the |
| Tx:16.53 | of completion cannot complete, and life arises not from death, nor | Heaven from hell. |
| Tx:16.68 | you will gain from crossing over will be the understanding of where | Heaven is. From here it seems to be outside and across the bridge. |
| Tx:16.68 | glad astonishment that for all this you gave up nothing! The joy of | Heaven, which has no limit, is increased with each light that returns |
| Tx:16.69 | release, His perfect willingness is given you. Call upon Him, for | Heaven is at His call. And let Him call on Heaven for you. |
| Tx:16.69 | you. Call upon Him, for Heaven is at His call. And let Him call on | Heaven for you. |
| Tx:16.78 | this is done for you in time to bring to you the true condition of | Heaven. |
| Tx:17.12 | and with the closing of the dream will have no meaning. Who awake in | Heaven could dream that there could ever be need of salvation? |
| Tx:17.36 | defense must now be undertaken to keep truth whole. The power of | Heaven, the love of God, the tears of Christ, and the joy of His |
| Tx:17.37 | The holy instant is a miniature of | Heaven, sent you from Heaven. It is a picture, too, set in a frame. |
| Tx:17.37 | The holy instant is a miniature of Heaven, sent you from | Heaven. It is a picture, too, set in a frame. Yet if you accept this |
| Tx:17.37 | whole thought system of the ego lies in its gifts, so the whole of | Heaven lies in this instant, borrowed from eternity and set in time |
| Tx:17.40 | contain eternity. There is no distraction here. The picture of | Heaven and eternity grows more convincing as you look at it. And now |
| Tx:17.55 | as they stand now which seems to make you suffer, but which makes | Heaven glad. If Heaven were outside you, you could not share in its |
| Tx:17.55 | now which seems to make you suffer, but which makes Heaven glad. If | Heaven were outside you, you could not share in its gladness. Yet |
| Tx:18.5 | the enormity of the original error, which seemed to cast you out of | Heaven, to shatter knowledge into meaningless bits of disunited |
| Tx:18.9 | in each other, to help Him show you that no substitute you made for | Heaven can keep you from it. In you there is no separation, and no |
| Tx:18.11 | Heaven is restored to all the Sonship through your relationship, for | |
| Tx:18.11 | for in it lies the Sonship, whole and beautiful, safe in your love. | Heaven has entered quietly, for all illusions have been gently |
| Tx:18.11 | and how holy is your relationship, with the truth shining upon it! | Heaven beholds it and rejoices that you have let it come to you. [And |
| Tx:18.11 | was created.] The universe within you stands with you, together. And | Heaven looks with love on what is joined in it, along with its |
| Tx:18.12 | Their call is but an echo of the original error which shattered | Heaven. And what became of peace in those who heard? Return with me |
| Tx:18.12 | And what became of peace in those who heard? Return with me to | Heaven, walking together out of this world and through another to the |
| Tx:18.23 | Yet | Heaven is sure. This is no dream. Its coming means that you have |
| Tx:18.23 | the same wishes in your mind, so do the real world and the truth of | Heaven join in the Will of God. The dream of waking is easily |
| Tx:18.27 | accepted God. The holiness of your relationship is established in | Heaven. You do not understand what you accepted, but remember that |
| Tx:18.29 | In your relationship, you have joined with me in bringing | Heaven to the Son of God, who hid in darkness. You have been willing |
| Tx:18.31 | Not one light in | Heaven but goes with you. Not one ray that shines forever in the Mind |
| Tx:18.31 | one ray that shines forever in the Mind of God but shines on you. | Heaven is joined with you in your advance to Heaven. When such great |
| Tx:18.31 | God but shines on you. Heaven is joined with you in your advance to | Heaven. When such great light has joined with you to give the little |
| Tx:18.42 | build a ladder planted in the solid rock of faith and rising even to | Heaven. Nor will you use it to ascend to Heaven alone. |
| Tx:18.42 | of faith and rising even to Heaven. Nor will you use it to ascend to | Heaven alone. |
| Tx:18.43 | every holy instant which you do not arrange, thousands will rise to | Heaven with you. Can you plan for this? Or could you prepare |
| Tx:18.49 | learn, for it is [in that] realization that the Kingdom of | Heaven is restored to you. For God created only this, and He did not |
| Tx:18.49 | depart from it nor leave it separate from Himself. The Kingdom of | Heaven is the dwelling-place of the Son of God, who left not his |
| Tx:18.49 | Son of God, who left not his Father and dwells not apart from Him. | Heaven is not a place nor a condition. It is merely an awareness of |
| Tx:18.50 | else, something outside yourself, has cost you the awareness of | Heaven and the loss of your Identity. And you have done a stranger |
| Tx:18.58 | You can stretch out your hand and reach to | Heaven. You whose hands are joined have begun to reach beyond the |
| Tx:18.72 | It draws a circle, infinitely small, around a very little segment of | Heaven splintered from the whole, proclaiming that within it is your |
| Tx:18.79 | a desert was. And everyone you welcome will bring love with him from | Heaven for you. They enter one by one into this holy place, but they |
| Tx:18.80 | and see your little garden gently transformed into the Kingdom of | Heaven with all the love of its Creator shining upon it. The holy |
| Tx:18.81 | shining Self will lift the tiny aspect which you tried to hide from | Heaven straight into Heaven. No part of love calls on the whole in |
| Tx:18.81 | the tiny aspect which you tried to hide from Heaven straight into | Heaven. No part of love calls on the whole in vain. No Son of God |
| Tx:18.85 | This is the little part of you, you think you stole from | Heaven. Give it back to Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have |
| Tx:18.85 | little part of you, you think you stole from Heaven. Give it back to | Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of Heaven. |
| Tx:18.85 | of you, you think you stole from Heaven. Give it back to Heaven. | Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of Heaven. Let the |
| Tx:18.85 | back to Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of | Heaven. Let the Holy Spirit remove it from the withered kingdom in |
| Tx:18.97 | lifted high above the darkness and gently placed before the gates of | Heaven. The holy instant in which you were united is but the |
| Tx:19.24 | choice. Approach it not lightly, for it is the choice of hell or | Heaven. |
| Tx:19.33 | has as its purpose now the goal of proving this is impossible. | Heaven has smiled upon it, and the belief in sin has been uprooted in |
| Tx:19.35 | In the holy instant, you will see the smile of | heaven shining on both of you. And you will shine upon each other in |
| Tx:19.35 | that has been given you. For sin will not prevail against a union | Heaven has smiled upon. Your perception was healed in the holy |
| Tx:19.35 | has smiled upon. Your perception was healed in the holy instant | Heaven gave you. Forget what you have seen and raise your eyes in |
| Tx:19.35 | raise your eyes in faith to what you now can see. The barriers to | heaven will disappear before your holy sight, for you who were |
| Tx:19.42 | universe and its Creator. This little wall would hide the purpose of | Heaven and keep it from Heaven. |
| Tx:19.42 | This little wall would hide the purpose of Heaven and keep it from | Heaven. |
| Tx:19.45 | There is a hush in | Heaven, a happy expectancy, a little pause of gladness in |
| Tx:19.45 | little pause of gladness in acknowledgment of the journey's end. For | Heaven knows you well, as you know Heaven. No illusions stand between |
| Tx:19.45 | of the journey's end. For Heaven knows you well, as you know | Heaven. No illusions stand between you now. Look not upon the little |
| Tx:19.64 | nothing you have paid for brought you peace. Are you not glad that | Heaven cannot be sacrificed, and sacrifice cannot be asked of you? |
| Tx:19.66 | from what is offered you in gratitude for giving peace its home in | Heaven. Send forth to all the world the joyous message of the end of |
| Tx:19.80 | of the insane, dedicated to madness and set against the peace of | Heaven? One thing is sure—God, Who created neither sin nor death, |
| Tx:19.101 | need forgiveness of each other, for you will share in madness or in | Heaven together. And you will raise your eyes in faith together or |
| Tx:19.104 | There is no grace of | Heaven that you cannot offer to each other and receive from your most |
| Tx:19.108 | quiet that you seek, the reason for the journey from its beginning. | Heaven is the gift you owe each other, the debt of gratitude you |
| Tx:19.109 | he gives and what is given him. Nor is it given anything in hell or | Heaven to interfere with his decision. |
| Tx:20.12 | our vision will be no illusions—only a pathway to the open door of | Heaven, the home we share in quietness, and where we live in |
| Tx:20.14 | This is the way to | Heaven and to the peace of Easter, in which we join in glad awareness |
| Tx:20.15 | way of innocence together, singing as you behold the open door of | Heaven, and recognize the home that called to you. Give joyously to |
| Tx:20.26 | Here there is only holiness and joining without limit. For what is | Heaven but union, direct and perfect, and without the veil of fear |
| Tx:20.29 | Sin has no place in | Heaven, where its results are alien and can no more enter than can |
| Tx:20.29 | And therein lies your need to see your brother sinless. In him is | Heaven. See sin in him instead, and Heaven is lost to you. But see |
| Tx:20.29 | your brother sinless. In him is Heaven. See sin in him instead, and | Heaven is lost to you. But see him as he is, and what is yours shines |
| Tx:20.70 | look upon each other, you will see an altar to your Father, holy as | Heaven, glowing with radiant purity and sparkling with the shining |
| Tx:21.32 | are meaningful only before the state of certainty is reached. In | Heaven they are unknown. Yet Heaven is reached through them. |
| Tx:21.32 | the state of certainty is reached. In Heaven they are unknown. Yet | Heaven is reached through them. |
| Tx:21.37 | that He has given you is more than anything that stands this side of | Heaven. The instant for its recognition is at hand. Join your |
| Tx:21.37 | it and in the innocence which makes the sight of it as beautiful as | Heaven. |
| Tx:21.46 | still seem to shine and catch your eye. Yet you would not “sell” | Heaven to have them. |
| Tx:21.47 | of another world, brings to it hope of peace. For it remembers | Heaven, and now it sees that Heaven has come to earth at last, from |
| Tx:21.47 | to it hope of peace. For it remembers Heaven, and now it sees that | Heaven has come to earth at last, from which the ego's rule has kept |
| Tx:21.47 | to earth at last, from which the ego's rule has kept it out so long. | Heaven has come because it found a home in your relationship on |
| Tx:21.47 | on earth. And earth can hold no longer what has been given | Heaven as its own. |
| Tx:21.66 | That you are joined is your salvation—the gift of | Heaven, not the gift of fear. Does Heaven seem to be a burden to you? |
| Tx:21.66 | is your salvation—the gift of Heaven, not the gift of fear. Does | Heaven seem to be a burden to you? In madness, yes. And yet what |
| Tx:21.66 | what madness sees must be dispelled by reason. Reason assures you | Heaven is what you want, and all you want. Listen to Him Who speaks |
| Tx:22.3 | He denies not his own reality, because it is the truth. Just under | Heaven does he stand, but close enough not to return to earth. For |
| Tx:22.3 | Heaven's holiness. How far from home can a relationship so like to | Heaven be? |
| Tx:22.15 | holy relationship, the home prepared for them as earth is turned to | Heaven. |
| Tx:22.22 | you can pause uncertainly, waiting to choose between the joy of | Heaven and the misery of hell. Until you choose Heaven, you are in |
| Tx:22.22 | between the joy of Heaven and the misery of hell. Until you choose | Heaven, you are in hell and misery. |
| Tx:22.23 | There is no part of | Heaven you can take and weave into illusions. Nor is there one |
| Tx:22.23 | and weave into illusions. Nor is there one illusion you can enter | Heaven with. A savior cannot be a judge, nor mercy condemnation. And |
| Tx:22.28 | sin. Would you have partial forgiveness for yourself? Can you reach | Heaven while a single sin still tempts you to remain in misery? |
| Tx:22.28 | Heaven while a single sin still tempts you to remain in misery? | Heaven is the home of perfect purity, and God created it for you. |
| Tx:22.39 | the other choice. This is not so. A choice made with the power of | Heaven to uphold it cannot be undone. Your way is decided. There will |
| Tx:22.41 | such a long and lonely journey where you walked alone. The gates of | Heaven, open now for you, will you now open to the sorrowful. And |

| Tx:22.55 | place. How blessed are you who let this gift be given! Each part of | Heaven that you bring is given you. And every empty place in Heaven |
| Tx:22.55 | part of Heaven that you bring is given you. And every empty place in | Heaven that you fill again with the Eternal Light you bring shines |
| Tx:22.56 | to others? And who would fail to recognize a gift he let be laid in | Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you give the Holy |
| Tx:23.4 | attraction. Would you, for all these meaningless distractions, lay | Heaven aside? Your destiny and purpose are far beyond them in the |
| Tx:23.6 | you but is part of you. Look on it lovingly, and see the light of | Heaven in it. So will you come to understand all that is given you. |
| Tx:23.6 | you once thought sinful now will be reinterpreted as part of | Heaven. How beautiful it is to walk clean and redeemed and happy |
| Tx:23.31 | you made for your salvation. They hold in place the substitute for | Heaven which you prefer. This is their purpose; they were made for |
| Tx:23.37 | There is no life outside of | Heaven. Where God created life, there life must be. In any state |
| Tx:23.37 | Where God created life, there life must be. In any state apart from | Heaven, life is illusion. At best, it seems like life; at worst, like |
| Tx:23.37 | not life, equal in their inaccuracy and lack of meaning. Life not in | Heaven is impossible, and what is not in Heaven is not anywhere. |
| Tx:23.37 | of meaning. Life not in Heaven is impossible, and what is not in | Heaven is not anywhere. Outside of Heaven, only the conflict of |
| Tx:23.37 | is impossible, and what is not in Heaven is not anywhere. Outside of | Heaven, only the conflict of illusions stands; senseless, impossible, |
| Tx:23.37 | and beyond all reason, and yet perceived as an eternal barrier to | Heaven. Illusions are but forms. Their content is never true. |
| Tx:23.39 | another nor that return from one is easier. The whole descent from | Heaven lies in each one. And where your thinking starts, there must |
| Tx:23.40 | form has placed your foot upon the twisted stairway that leads from | Heaven. Yet any instant it is possible to have all this undone. How |
| Tx:23.40 | all this undone. How can you know whether you chose the stairs to | Heaven or the way to hell? Quite easily. How do you feel? Is peace in |
| Tx:23.40 | Are you certain which way you go? And are you sure the goal of | Heaven can be reached? If not, you walk alone. Ask, then, your Friend |
| Tx:23.47 | of safety. In Him is no attack, and no illusion in any form stalks | Heaven. Heaven is wholly true. No difference enters, and what is all |
| Tx:23.47 | In Him is no attack, and no illusion in any form stalks Heaven. | Heaven is wholly true. No difference enters, and what is all the same |
| Tx:23.52 | a miracle instead of murder. And God Himself and all the lights of | Heaven will gently lean to you and hold you up. For you have chosen |
| Tx:23.53 | gone and not perceived. The body stands between the Father and the | Heaven He created for His Son because it has no purpose. |
| Tx:24.10 | of special goals. And would you now defeat the goal of holiness that | Heaven gave it? What perspective can the special have that does not |
| Tx:24.14 | them as one with Him. They chose their specialness instead of | Heaven and instead of peace and wrapped it carefully in sin to keep |
| Tx:24.18 | release to both of you. Here stands your brother with the key to | Heaven in his hand held out to you. Let not the dream of specialness |
| Tx:24.20 | have reached this final obstacle that seems to make God and His | Heaven so remote that they cannot be reached. Here in this holy place |
| Tx:24.22 | could make the truth of God and you as one seem anything but | Heaven and the hope of peace at last in sight. |
| Tx:24.46 | He gives them vision for their sightless eyes and sings to them of | Heaven that their ears may hear no more the sound of battle and of |
| Tx:24.47 | seek salvation in a war with love, consider this: the holy Lord of | Heaven has Himself come down to you to offer you your own completion. |
| Tx:24.50 | Without you there would be a lack in God, a | Heaven incomplete, a Son without a Father. There could be no universe |
| Tx:24.60 | no sacrifice is asked, no strain called forth, and all the power of | Heaven and the might of truth itself is given to provide the means |
| Tx:24.66 | gone. Its holy purpose gave it immortality, setting another light in | Heaven, where your creations recognize a gift from you, a sign that |
| Tx:24.67 | you are but means, along with it. God is a Means as well as End. In | Heaven, means and end are one, and one with Him. This is the state of |
| Tx:25.8 | Since you believe that you are separate, | Heaven presents itself to you as separate too. Not that it is in |
| Tx:25.20 | How could the Lord of | Heaven not be glad if you appreciate His masterpiece? What could He |
| Tx:25.27 | where it must be and light the body up instead of it. The lamps of | Heaven are not for it to choose to see them where it will. If it |
| Tx:25.33 | believing them to be the bringers of rejoicing and of joy. Even in | Heaven does this law obtain. The Son of God creates to bring him joy, |
| Tx:25.35 | you homeless. Those who offer peace to everyone have found a home in | Heaven the world cannot destroy. For it is large enough to hold the |
| Tx:25.36 | In you is all of | Heaven. Every leaf that falls is given life in you. Each bird that |
| Tx:25.36 | for you. What aim can supersede the Will of God and of His Son that | Heaven be restored to him for whom it was created as his only home? |
| Tx:25.36 | be brought to truth than by your willingness to bring the light of | Heaven with you as you walk beyond the world of darkness into light? |
| Tx:25.40 | have found if he fulfilled the role God gave to him. But think not | Heaven is lost to him alone. Nor can it be regained unless the way is |
| Tx:25.41 | fulfilled is but the means to let yours be. And so you walk toward | Heaven or toward hell, but not alone. How beautiful his sinlessness |
| Tx:25.42 | His love for you; through your attack believe He hates you, thinking | Heaven must be hell. Look once again upon your brother, not without |
| Tx:25.42 | your brother, not without the understanding that he is the way to | Heaven or to hell as you perceive him. But forget not this—the role |
| Tx:25.50 | a wish to make this world's foundation sure as love, dependable as | Heaven, and as strong as God Himself. The world is safe from love to |
| Tx:25.51 | Nor can the basis of a world He did not make be firm and sure as | Heaven. How could it be that hell and Heaven are the same? And is it |
| Tx:25.51 | not make be firm and sure as Heaven. How could it be that hell and | Heaven are the same? And is it possible that what He did not will |
| Tx:25.59 | assigned to you in God's Own plan to show His Sons that hell and | Heaven are different, not the same. And that in Heaven they are all |
| Tx:25.59 | Sons that hell and Heaven are different, not the same. And that in | Heaven they are all the same, without the differences which would |
| Tx:25.59 | the same, without the differences which would have made a hell of | Heaven and a heaven of hell, had such insanity been possible. |
| Tx:25.59 | without the differences which would have made a hell of Heaven and a | heaven of hell, had such insanity been possible. |
| Tx:25.64 | remains to those who still believe in sin? What could they know of | Heaven and the justice of the saved? |
| Tx:25.68 | to strike them dead with lightning bolts torn from the “fires” of | Heaven by God's own angry hand. They do believe that Heaven is hell |
| Tx:25.68 | the “fires” of Heaven by God's own angry hand. They do believe that | Heaven is hell and are afraid of love. And deep suspicion and the |
| Tx:25.72 | one that you accept brings joy to Him as well as you. He knows that | Heaven is richer made by each one you accept. And God rejoices as His |
| Tx:25.77 | way, as God appointed for His holy Son. This is the only justice | Heaven knows, and all the Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special |
| Tx:25.78 | you will forgo all values of this world in favor of the peace of | Heaven. Not one sin would you retain. And not one doubt that this is |
| Tx:25.79 | is lost to you or anyone, but cherished and preserved [for you] in | Heaven, where all of the treasures given to God's Son are kept for |
| Tx:26.5 | for you. Yet it can become a treasure house as rich and limitless as | Heaven itself. No instant passes here in which your brother's |
| Tx:26.7 | that you have power to make of them what God willed not they be. In | Heaven God's Son is not imprisoned in a body nor is sacrificed in |
| Tx:26.8 | And as he is in | Heaven, so must he be eternally and everywhere. He is the same |
| Tx:26.17 | intact and undefiled. And all you need to do is but to wish that | Heaven be given you instead of hell, and every bolt and barrier that |
| Tx:26.19 | There is a borderland of thought which stands between this world and | Heaven. It is not a place, and when you reach it is apart from time. |
| Tx:26.19 | are judged to be untrue. This borderland is just beyond the gate of | Heaven. Here is every thought made pure and wholly simple. Here is |
| Tx:26.22 | Salvation stops just short of | Heaven, for only perception needs salvation. Heaven was never lost |
| Tx:26.22 | stops just short of Heaven, for only perception needs salvation. | Heaven was never lost and so cannot be saved. Yet who can make a |
| Tx:26.22 | so cannot be saved. Yet who can make a choice between the wish for | Heaven and the wish for hell unless he recognizes they are not the |
| Tx:26.25 | the world gives way to simple justice past the gate that opens into | Heaven. No one forgives unless he has believed in sin and still |
| Tx:26.26 | see. Each flower shines in light, and every bird sings of the joy of | Heaven. There is no sadness, and there is no parting here, for |
| Tx:26.27 | beyond the universe to touch the heart of all creation? What is | Heaven but a song of gratitude and love and praise by everything |
| Tx:26.27 | set where once sin was believed to be. And here does every light of | heaven come to be rekindled and increased in joy. For here is what |
| Tx:26.28 | Forgiveness brings no little miracles to lay before the gate of | Heaven. Here the Son of God Himself comes to receive each gift that |
| Tx:26.29 | will become an altar to the truth, and you will join the lights of | Heaven there and sing their song of gratitude and praise. And as they |
| Tx:26.29 | be complete, so will you go with them. For no one hears the song of | Heaven and remains without a voice that adds its power to the song |
| Tx:26.29 | gate. How little is the hindrance which withholds the wealth of | Heaven from you! And how great will be the joy in Heaven when you |
| Tx:26.29 | the wealth of Heaven from you! And how great will be the joy in | Heaven when you join the mighty chorus to the love of God! |
| Tx:26.30 | different ways. All learning is a help or hindrance to the gate of | Heaven. Nothing in between is possible. There are two teachers only, |
| Tx:26.30 | is meaningful. For never will another road be made except the way to | Heaven. You but choose whether to go toward Heaven or away to |
| Tx:26.30 | made except the way to Heaven. You but choose whether to go toward | Heaven or away to nowhere. There is nothing else to choose. |
| Tx:26.34 | The tiny instant you would keep and make eternal passed away in | Heaven too soon for anything to notice it had come. What disappeared |
| Tx:26.37 | be returned to you? And do you want that fearful instant kept, when | Heaven seemed to disappear and God was feared and made a symbol of |
| Tx:26.45 | Yet God has given him a better Friend in Whom all power in earth and | Heaven rests. The one illusion that you think is friend obscures His |
| Tx:26.52 | of healing and the lasting grounds for hell. If this were so, would | Heaven be opposed by its own opposite, as real as it. Then would |
| Tx:26.55 | it does remove the obstacles which you have placed between the | Heaven where you are and recognition of where and what you are. Facts |
| Tx:26.56 | to overlook what is not there; a little sigh that speaks for | Heaven as a preference to this world which death and desolation seem |
| Tx:26.56 | will creation rise within you to replace the world you see with | Heaven, wholly perfect and complete. What is forgiveness but a |
| Tx:26.63 | And to this name, your brother calls for his release and yours. | Heaven is shining on the Son of God. Deny him not, that you may be |
| Tx:26.77 | Christ within him, that you may behold His glory and rejoice that | Heaven is not separate from you. |
| Tx:26.79 | has wrought have They undone. And now you stand on ground so holy | Heaven leans to join with it and make it like itself. The shadow of |
| Tx:26.80 | to love, and freedom lights up every living thing and lifts it into | Heaven, where the lights grow ever brighter as each one comes home. |
| Tx:26.81 | Heaven is grateful for this gift of what has been withheld so long. | |
| Tx:26.81 | it, and leave no space nor distance lingering between the light of | Heaven and the world. |
| Tx:26.82 | temple, where a home for Them has been set up. There is no place in | Heaven holier. And They have come to dwell within the temple offered |
| Tx:26.82 | the brightest light in Heaven's radiance. And all the lights in | Heaven brighter grow, in gratitude for what has been restored. |
| Tx:26.83 | him from bitter winter and the freezing cold. And shall the Lord of | Heaven and His Son give less in gratitude for so much more? |
| Tx:26.86 | thing along with you. God limits not. And what is limited can not be | Heaven. So it must be hell. |
| Tx:27.3 | crucifixion before his eyes that he may see his sins are writ in | Heaven in your blood and death and go before him, closing off the |
| Tx:27.3 | gate and damning him to hell. Yet this is writ in hell and not in | Heaven, where you are beyond attack and prove his innocence. The |
| Tx:27.11 | this empty space, from which the goal of sin has been removed, is | Heaven free to be remembered. Here its peace can come and perfect |
| Tx:27.75 | unites with you in holy innocence. And from this dream, the Lord of | Heaven will Himself awaken His beloved Son. Dream of your brother's |
| Tx:29.10 | a simple way, without a sacrifice or any loss, to find yourself in | Heaven and in God? Until you realize you give up nothing, until you |
| Tx:29.16 | you found yourself before. There is no change in immortality, and | Heaven knows it not. Yet here on earth it has a double purpose, for |
| Tx:29.31 | heard. There is a resting place so still no sound except a hymn to | Heaven rises up to gladden God the Father and the Son. Where both |
| Tx:29.31 | Where both abide are They remembered both. And where They are is | Heaven and is peace. Think not that you can change Their dwelling |
| Tx:29.32 | The changelessness of | Heaven is in you, so deep within that nothing in this world but |
| Tx:29.35 | you attack him with the hands of hate? Who would lay bloody hands on | Heaven itself and hope to find its peace? Your brother thinks he |
| Tx:29.40 | God gave to all that you would make eternal, to ensure that only | Heaven would not pass away. |
| Tx:29.43 | For it will fail, and you will weep each time an idol falls. | Heaven cannot be found where it is not, and there can be no peace |
| Tx:29.56 | miracle restores to what has life and power worthy of the gift of | Heaven and eternal peace. The miracle does not restore the truth, the |
| Tx:29.60 | sons, but only One. Who can have more, and who be given less? In | Heaven would the Son of God but laugh if idols could intrude upon his |
| Tx:29.60 | speaks and tells you idols have no purpose here. For more than | Heaven can you never have. If Heaven is within, why would you seek |
| Tx:29.60 | have no purpose here. For more than Heaven can you never have. If | Heaven is within, why would you seek for idols which would make of |
| Tx:29.60 | Heaven is within, why would you seek for idols which would make of | Heaven less, to give you more than God bestowed upon your brother and |
| Tx:29.61 | the mind that God created perfect as Himself. And in that dream was | Heaven changed to hell, and God made enemy unto His Son. |
| Tx:29.68 | Forgiveness, once complete, brings timelessness so close the song of | Heaven can be heard, not with the ears, but with the holiness which |
| Tx:29.69 | do not feel a deep content, a certainty of help, a calm assurance | Heaven goes with you—be sure you made an idol and believe it will |
| Tx:30.33 | will. He joins with you. He did not set His Kingdom up alone. And | Heaven itself but represents your will, where everything created is |
| Tx:30.35 | you thanks, for it is by your will that it was born. No light of | Heaven shines except for you, for it was set in Heaven by your will. |
| Tx:30.35 | born. No light of Heaven shines except for you, for it was set in | Heaven by your will. |
| Tx:30.45 | of you is like a star, unchangeable in an eternal sky. So high in | Heaven is it set that those outside of Heaven know not it is there. |
| Tx:30.45 | in an eternal sky. So high in Heaven is it set that those outside of | Heaven know not it is there. Yet still and white and lovely will it |
| Tx:30.46 | it in its perfect place, which is as far from earth as earth from | Heaven. It is not the distance nor the time which keeps this star |
| Tx:30.48 | sky, no changeless star, and no reality. The mind of Heaven's Son in | Heaven is, for there the mind of Father and Son joined in creation |
| Tx:30.59 | Not yet is | Heaven quite remembered, for the purpose of forgiveness still |
| Tx:30.60 | a perfect Son and share His Fatherhood with him. No one outside of | Heaven knows how this can be, for understanding this is Heaven |
| Tx:30.60 | outside of Heaven knows how this can be, for understanding this is | Heaven itself. Even the real world has a purpose still beneath |
| Tx:30.64 | fear forever and to go straight on and quickly reach the gate of | Heaven itself. For He Whose hand you hold was waiting but for you to |
| Tx:30.90 | reality. For that is changeless and has no effects which anything in | Heaven or on earth could ever alter. But appearances are shown to be |
| Tx:30.91 | keep their unreality obscure and give to them reality instead. And | Heaven gives no answer to the prayer, nor can a miracle be given you |
| Tx:31.62 | you have chosen that you want it so. But choose the Spirit, and all | Heaven bends to touch your eyes and bless your holy sight, that you |
| Tx:31.65 | Only in arrogance could you conceive that you must make the way to | Heaven plain. The means are given you by which to see the world that |
| Tx:31.65 | the world that will replace the one you made. Your will be done! In | Heaven as on earth, this is forever true. It matters not where you |
| Tx:31.67 | Child of God. It does not matter if you think you are in earth or | Heaven. What your Father wills for you can never change. The truth in |
| Tx:31.81 | Be not deceived by what appears as many choices. There is hell or | Heaven, and of these you choose but one. |
| Tx:31.93 | yet be so intense and so inclusive it is but a step from there to | Heaven. To your tired eyes I bring a vision of a different world, so |
| Tx:31.94 | And all the loveliness which they concealed appear like lawns of | Heaven to our sight to lift us high above the thorny roads we |
| Tx:31.96 | as each one elects to join with me, the song of thanks from earth to | Heaven grows from tiny scattered threads of melody to one inclusive |
| W1:20.3 | and the life. His Will is done because all power is given him in | Heaven and on earth. In your determination to see is vision given you. |
| W1:45.11 | thing is necessary—approach it as you would an altar dedicated in | Heaven itself to God the Father and God the Son. For such is the |
| W1:45.11 | but an exercise in holiness and an attempt to reach the Kingdom of | Heaven. |
| W1:47.8 | of your mind, and reach down and below them to the Kingdom of | Heaven. There is a place in you where there is perfect peace. There |
| W1:50.4 | to disturb the holy mind of the Son of God. Such is the Kingdom of | Heaven. Such is the resting place where your Father has placed you |
| W1:60.2 | reflection of God's Love on earth. It will bring me near enough to | Heaven that the Love of God can reach down to me and raise me to my |
| W1:73.4 | light is in it because it does not oppose the Will of God. It is not | Heaven, but the light of Heaven shines on it. Darkness has vanished; |
| W1:73.4 | does not oppose the Will of God. It is not Heaven, but the light of | Heaven shines on it. Darkness has vanished; the ego's idle wishes |
| W1:73.6 | Forget the ego's arguments which seek to prove all this is really | Heaven. You know it is not so. You cannot want this for yourself. |
| W1:73.9 | done. And end forever the insane belief that it is hell in place of | Heaven that you choose. |
| W1:76.12 | His Voice will speak of this to us, as well as of the joys of | Heaven which His laws keep limitless forever. We will repeat today's |
| W1:78.11 | of love the Holy Spirit showed you in their place. The world and | Heaven join in thanking you, for not one thought of God but must |
| W1:89.5 | I would make no exceptions and no substitutes. I want all of | Heaven and only Heaven, as God wills me to have. |
| W1:89.5 | make no exceptions and no substitutes. I want all of Heaven and only | Heaven, as God wills me to have. |
| W1:95.19 | help, your little part in bringing happiness to all the world. And | Heaven looks to you in confidence that you will try today. Share, |
| W1:98.11 | then of Him Who knows the function that you have on earth as well as | Heaven. He will be with you each practice period you share with Him, |
| W1:99.3 | How could there be a meeting place at all where earth and | Heaven can be reconciled within a mind where both of them exist? The |
| W1:100.4 | God's plan. Just as your light increases every light that shines in | Heaven, so your joy on earth calls to all minds to let their sorrows |
| W1:110.13 | of God that sets you free. This is the key that opens up the gate of | Heaven, and which lets you enter in the peace of God and His eternity. |
| W1:121.7 | release from hell through you and turns to you imploringly for | Heaven here and now. It has no hope, but you become its hope. And as |
| W1:122.6 | Here is the answer! Would you stand outside while all of | Heaven waits for you within? Forgive and be forgiven. As you give, |
| W1:126.5 | escape the justified repayment for his sin. Think you the Lord of | Heaven would allow the world's salvation to depend on this? Would not |
| W1:129.10 | Today the lights of | Heaven bend to you, to shine upon your eyelids as you rest beyond the |
| W1:130.11 | what you see. Perception is consistent with your choice, and hell or | Heaven comes to you as one. |
| W1:130.12 | sight, and what you will behold is hell indeed. Yet the release of | Heaven still remains within your range of choice to take the place of |
| W1:131.5 | Be glad that search you must. Be glad as well to learn you search for | Heaven and must find the goal you really want. No one can fail to |
| W1:131.6 | nor affect His perfect, timeless, and unchanging Love. You will find | Heaven. Everything you seek but this will fall away, yet not because |
| W1:131.7 | Why wait for | Heaven? It is here today. Time is the great illusion; it is past or |
| W1:131.8 | Heaven remains your one alternative to this strange world you made | |
| W1:131.8 | and attacks itself is not of Him. He did not make two minds, with | Heaven as the glad effect of one and earth the other's sorry outcome |
| W1:131.9 | it be His Son could be in hell when God Himself established him in | Heaven? Could he lose what the Eternal Will has given him to be his |
| W1:131.10 | contradicts what has no opposite. He thinks he made a hell opposing | Heaven and believes that he abides in what does not exist, while |
| W1:131.10 | Heaven and believes that he abides in what does not exist, while | Heaven is the place he cannot find. Leave foolish thoughts like these |
| W1:131.17 | You cannot fail today. There walks with you the Spirit | Heaven sent you that you might approach this door some day and |
| W1:131.18 | and meaningless laments. Salvation's time has come. Today is set by | Heaven Itself to be a time of grace for you and for the world. If you |
| W1:133.14 | more than merely letting you make choices easily and without pain. | Heaven Itself is reached by empty hands and open minds, which come |
| W1:133.17 | what waits for everyone who reaches unencumbered to the gate of | Heaven, which swings open as he comes. Should you begin to let |
| W1:134.22 | No one is crucified alone, and yet no one can enter | Heaven by himself. |
| W1:135.21 | Without defenses, you become a light which | Heaven gratefully acknowledges to be its own. And it will lead you on |
| W1:135.26 | wonder why you ever thought that you must be defended from release. | Heaven asks nothing. It is hell that makes extravagant demands for |
| W1:136.10 | to die. And so the body is more powerful than everlasting life, | Heaven more frail than hell, and God's design for the salvation of |
| W1:136.11 | Such is your planning for your own defense. And you believe that | Heaven quails before such mad attacks as these, with God made blind |
| W1:136.12 | remains unheeding of the laws by which you thought to govern it. And | Heaven has not bowed to hell, nor life to death. You can but choose |
| W1:138.1 | In this world, | Heaven is a choice because here we believe there are alternatives to |
| W1:138.1 | that all things have an opposite, and what we want we choose. If | Heaven exists, there must be hell as well, for contradiction is the |
| W1:138.2 | It is this strange perception of the truth that makes the choice of | Heaven seem to be the same as the relinquishment of hell. It is not |
| W1:138.6 | In this insanely complicated world, | Heaven appears to take the form of choice rather than merely being |
| W1:138.9 | Heaven is chosen consciously. The choice cannot be made until | |
| W1:138.10 | The conscious choice of | Heaven is as sure as is the ending of the fear of hell when it is |
| W1:138.11 | We make the choice for | Heaven as we wake and spend five minutes making sure that we have |
| W1:138.13 | Heaven is the decision I must make. I make it now and will not change | |
| W1:149.2 | [138] | Heaven is the decision I must make. |
| W1:151.17 | the world unites with us and happily accepts our holy thoughts which | Heaven has corrected and made pure. Now has our ministry begun at |
| W1:152.11 | gentleness, his perfect sinlessness, his Father's Love, his right to | Heaven and release from hell are joyously accepted as our own. Now do |
| W1:153.18 | where you will walk in true defenselessness, for you will know that | Heaven goes with you. Nor would you keep your mind away from Him a |
| W1:154.1 | a larger plan we cannot see in its entirety. Our part is cast in | Heaven, not in hell. And what we think is weakness can be strength; |
| W1:157.1 | is a special time of promise in your calendar of days. It is a time | Heaven has set apart to shine upon and cast a timeless light upon |
| W1:157.3 | Today it will be given you to feel a touch of | Heaven, though you will return to paths of learning. Yet you have |
| W1:157.6 | to the same experience in which the world is quietly forgot and | Heaven is remembered for a while. |
| W1:157.7 | becomes a little closer to the end of time, a little more like | Heaven in its ways, a little nearer its deliverance. And you who |
| W1:157.8 | of life, Translator of perception into truth, the holy Guide to | Heaven given you has dreamed for you this journey which you make and |
| W1:159.1 | requires first you have it in your own possession. Here the laws of | Heaven and the world agree. But here they also separate. The world |
| W1:159.3 | which never died but has been kept obscure. Christ's vision pictures | Heaven, for it sees a world so like to Heaven that what God created |
| W1:159.3 | Christ's vision pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so like to | Heaven that what God created perfect can be mirrored there. The |
| W1:159.4 | receiver are united in extension here on earth as they are one in | Heaven. Christ beholds no sin in anyone, and in His sight the sinless |
| W1:161.1 | Here is Atonement made complete, the world passed safely by, and | Heaven now restored. Here is the answer of the Voice of God. |
| W1:161.9 | This do the body's eyes behold in one whom | Heaven cherishes, the angels love, and God created perfect. This is |
| W1:161.11 | to you of ancient melodies you will remember. You are not forgot in | Heaven. Would you not remember it? |
| W1:164.1 | yet He hears them faintly, for beyond them all He hears the song of | Heaven and the Voice of God more clear, more meaningful, more near. |
| W1:165.4 | Deny not | Heaven. It is yours today but for the asking. Nor need you perceive |
| W1:168.4 | hearts rise up and claim the light as theirs. What now remains that | Heaven be delayed an instant longer? What remains undone when your |
| W1:169.11 | that grace provides will end in time, for grace foreshadows | Heaven yet does not replace the thought of time but for a little |
| W1:R5.10 | And together we will teach them to our brothers. God would not have | Heaven incomplete. It waits for you, as I do. I am incomplete without |
| W1:182.3 | The home he seeks cannot be made by him. There is no substitute for | Heaven. All he ever made was hell. |
| W1:182.4 | Child shall go is holy ground. It is His holiness that lights up | Heaven and that brings to earth the pure reflection of the light |
| W1:182.4 | earth the pure reflection of the light above, wherein are earth and | Heaven joined as one. |
| W1:182.9 | messages to those who think he is their enemy. He holds the might of | Heaven in His hand and calls them friend, and gives His strength to |
| W1:184.8 | you made the world. Illusions, yes! But what is true in earth and | Heaven is beyond your naming. When you call upon a brother, it is to |
| W1:184.12 | to those who chose the teaching of the world to take the place of | Heaven. In our practicing, our purpose is to let our minds accept |
| W1:185.1 | further sorrow possible for you in any form, in any place or time. | Heaven would be completely given back to full awareness, memory of |
| W1:185.9 | be asked of all of them: “Is this what I would have, in place of | Heaven and the peace of God?” This is the choice you make. Be not |
| W1:186.1 | It but acknowledges the Will of God is done on earth as well as | Heaven. It unites all wills on earth in Heaven's plan to save the |
| W1:186.14 | Itself. Forgiveness is an earthly form of love which as it is in | Heaven has no form. Yet what is needed here is given here as it is |
| W1:187.10 | of God is on our lips. And as we look within, we see the purity of | Heaven shine in our reflection of our Father's Love. |
| W1:188.1 | Why wait for | Heaven? Those who seek the light are merely covering their eyes. The |
| W1:189.10 | as well, be done in us and in the world, that it becomes a part of | Heaven now. Amen. |
| W1:190.8 | does fear appear to triumph over love and time replace eternity and | Heaven. And the world becomes a cruel and a bitter place, where |
| W1:190.11 | choose between illusions and the truth, or pain and joy, or hell and | Heaven. Let our gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are |
| W1:190.11 | place of sin, the peace of God instead of conflict, and the light of | Heaven for the darkness of the world. |
| W1:191.11 | and suffer pain, hear this: all power is given you in earth and | Heaven. There is nothing that you cannot do. You play the game of |
| W1:191.13 | Remember this and all the world is free. Remember this and earth and | Heaven are one. |
| W1:192.2 | it is the means by which untruth can be undone. And who would pardon | Heaven? Yet on earth you need the means to let illusion go. Creation |
| W1:192.4 | Forgiveness gently looks upon all things unknown in | Heaven, sees them disappear, and leaves the world a clean and |
| W1:193.2 | perception is made true and beautiful enough to let the light of | Heaven shine upon it. It is He Who answers what His Son would |
| W1:193.3 | to be received by every mind which had forgotten it as it exists in | Heaven and in God. Thus He encompassed what He could not see nor |
| W1:193.20 | the Love of God the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to | Heaven. God will take this final step Himself. Do not deny the little |
| W1:194.1 | the distance is that it encompasses, it sets you down just short of | Heaven, with the goal in sight and obstacles behind. Your foot has |
| W1:198.6 | love upon them. Those who hear His words have heard the song of | Heaven, for these are the words in which all will merge as one at |
| W1:198.12 | illusion which proclaims there is no condemnation in God's Son, and | Heaven is remembered instantly; the world forgotten, all its weird |
| W1:199.8 | world is blessed along with you; God's Son will weep no more, and | Heaven offers thanks for the increase of joy your practice brings |
| W1:200.2 | by what can only hurt, of making peace of chaos, joy of pain, and | Heaven out of hell. Attempt no more to win through losing, nor to die |
| W1:200.3 | for hell, when you have but to look with open eyes to find that | Heaven lies before you, through a door that opens easily to welcome |
| W1:200.6 | In truth it has no function and does nothing, for it is unknown in | Heaven. It is only hell where it is needed and where it must serve a |
| W1:200.8 | as different and leading from this fresh perception to the gate of | Heaven and the way beyond. Peace is the answer to conflicting goals, |
| W1:200.9 | Let us not lose our way again today. We go to | Heaven, and the path is straight. Only if we attempt to wander can |
| W1:200.10 | sought before. Now are they underfoot. And you look up and on toward | Heaven, with the body's eyes but serving for an instant longer now. |
| W2:223.2 | And we would not forget You longer. We are lonely here and long for | Heaven where we are at home. Today we would return. Our Name is |
| W2:224.1 | glorious and great, wholly beneficent and free from guilt that | Heaven looks to it to give it light. It lights the world as well. It |
| W2:226.2 | I to linger in a place of vain desires and of broken dreams when | Heaven can so easily be mine? |
| W2:227.2 | And so today we find our glad return to | Heaven, which we never really left. The Son of God this day lays down |
| W2:WS.5 | dreams are done, eternity has shined away the world, and only | Heaven now exists at all. |
| W2:231.2 | me, and with the One as well Who is our Father. To remember Him is | Heaven. This we seek. And only this is what it will be given us to |
| W2:WIW.4 | let Him give you peace and certainty, which you have thrown away but | Heaven has preserved for you in Him. |
| W2:241.2 | at last to You again. Father, Your Son, who never left, returns to | Heaven and his home. How glad are we to have our sanity restored to |
| W2:249.1 | of joy, abundance, charity, and endless giving. It is now so like to | Heaven that it quickly is transformed into the Light that it |
| W2:WIS.5 | is no sin. Creation is unchanged. Would you still hold return to | Heaven back? How long, oh holy Son of God, how long? |
| W2:252.2 | who am Your Son, that I may waken to the truth in You and know that | Heaven is restored to me. |
| W2:253.1 | am I led past this world to my creations, children of my Will, in | Heaven where my holy Self abides with them and Him Who has created me. |
| W2:255.1 | God's Son can have no cares and must remain forever in the peace of | Heaven. In his name I give today to finding what my Father wills for |
| W2:WIB.4 | was made to fence him into hell without escape, yet has the goal of | Heaven been exchanged for the pursuit of hell. The Son of God extends |
| W2:263.2 | And while we still remain outside the gate of | Heaven, let us look on all we see through holy vision and the eyes of |
| W2:265.1 | no fear in it. Let no appearance of my “sins” obscure the light of | Heaven, shining on the world. What is reflected here is in God's |
| W2:WIC.3 | and at home in God alone, does Christ remain at peace within the | Heaven of your holy mind. This is the only part of you that has |
| W2:272.1 | Father, the truth belongs to me. My home is set in | Heaven by Your will and mine. Can dreams content me? Can illusions |
| W2:272.2 | ourselves if we, the Sons of God, could be content with dreams when | Heaven can be chosen just as easily as hell and love will happily |
| W2:WIHS.5 | be but itself. The Holy Spirit is His gift by Which the quietness of | Heaven is restored to God's beloved Son. Would you refuse to take the |
| W2:281.2 | today. For I am far beyond all pain. My Father placed me safe in | Heaven, watching over me. And I would not attack the Son He loves, |
| W2:283.1 | idols. I am He my Father loves. His holiness remains the light of | Heaven and the Love of God. Is not what is beloved of You secure? Is |
| W2:283.1 | of God. Is not what is beloved of You secure? Is not the light of | Heaven infinite? Is not Your Son my true Identity, when You created |
| W2:286.1 | peace is mine. My heart is quiet and my mind at rest. Your Love is | Heaven, and Your Love is mine. |
| W2:287.1 | Where would I go but | Heaven? What could be a substitute for happiness? What gift could I |
| W2:292.1 | meet. Yet is the ending certain. For God's Will is done in earth and | Heaven. We will seek and we will find according to His Will, which |
| W2:300.2 | to Your Voice and learned exactly what to do to be restored to | Heaven and our true Identity. And we give thanks today the world |
| W2:306.1 | today when it can offer me a day in which I see a world so like to | Heaven that an ancient memory returns to me? Today I can forget the |
| W2:310.1 | The joy that comes to me is not of days nor hours, for it comes from | Heaven to Your Son. This day will be Your sweet reminder to remember |
| W2:320.1 | his mind and lays before it all the strength and love in earth and | Heaven. I am he to whom all this is given. I am he in whom the power |
| W2:325.1 | on and help his brothers walk ahead with him and find the way to | Heaven and to God. |
| W2:326.1 | of God, and so I have the power to create like You. And as it is in | Heaven, so on earth. Your plan I follow here, and at the end I know |
| W2:326.1 | the end I know that You will gather Your Effects into the tranquil | Heaven of Your Love, where earth will disappear and separate thoughts |
| W2:340.2 | in fear, and none the Father will not gather to Himself, awake in | Heaven in the Heart of Love. |
| W2:WIM.5 | Miracles fall like drops of healing rain from | Heaven on a dry and dusty world, where starved and thirsty creatures |
| W2:342.1 | door beyond which lies the end of dreams. I stand before the gate of | Heaven, wondering if I should enter in and be at home. Let me not |
| W2:345.1 | the form I need to help me with the problems I perceive. Father, in | Heaven it is different, for there, there are no needs. But here on |
| W2:WAI.1 | without opposite. I am the holy home of God Himself. I am the | Heaven where His love resides. I am His holy sinlessness itself, for |
| W2:WAI.3 | and as good. We do not seek a function that is past the gates of | Heaven. Knowledge will return when we have done our part. We are |
| W2:WAI.5 | thought he suffered. Now is he redeemed. And as he sees the gate of | Heaven stand open before him, he will enter in and disappear into the |
| W2:FL.4 | contains the memory of God and points the way to Him and to the | Heaven of His peace. And shall we not forgive our brother who can |
| W2:E.5 | that hell will claim you not and that each choice you make brings | Heaven nearer to your reach. And so we walk with Him from this time |
| M:4.10 | for here is Heaven's state fully reflected. From here the way to | Heaven is open and easy. In fact, it is here. Who would “go” anywhere |
| M:4.15 | has meaning to the sane? Who chooses hell when he perceives a way to | Heaven? And who would choose the weakness that must come from harm in |
| M:5.7 | perspective, without distortion and without fear, they re-establish | Heaven. |
| M:11.4 | of God has entered. What else but a thought of God turns hell to | Heaven merely by being what it is? The earth bows down before its |
| M:13.4 | all his peace. And to possess them must he sacrifice his hope of | Heaven and remembrance of his Father's Love. Who in his sane mind |
| M:13.7 | is total. There are no “half sacrifices.” You cannot give up | Heaven partially. You cannot be a little bit in hell. The Word of God |
| M:14.3 | restored. It goes against all the thinking of the world, but so does | Heaven. |
| M:14.5 | it departs, for it will not end as it began. To turn hell into | Heaven is the function of God's teachers, for what they teach are |
| M:14.5 | function of God's teachers, for what they teach are lessons in which | Heaven is reflected. And now sit down in true humility and realize |
| M:16.10 | to give up all that he never had. And for this “sacrifice” is | Heaven restored to his awareness. |
| M:16.11 | Fear is withdrawn from them, and so they go. And thus the Gate of | Heaven is reopened, and its light can shine again on an untroubled |
| M:19.1 | rise and cancels them out. Neither justice nor injustice exists in | Heaven, for error is impossible and correction meaningless. In this |
| M:19.5 | picture the mind desires to see. Remember this. In this lies either | Heaven or hell, as you elect. God's justice points to Heaven just |
| M:19.5 | lies either Heaven or hell, as you elect. God's justice points to | Heaven just because it is entirely impartial. It accepts all evidence |
| M:21.3 | his decision offers it to him, as he requests. Herein lie hell and | Heaven. The sleeping Son of God has but this power left to him. It is |
| M:21.5 | of His Spirit, raising them from meaningless symbols to the call of | Heaven itself. |
| M:22.1 | Atonement is a meaningless idea, just as special areas of hell in | Heaven is inconceivable. Accept Atonement, and you are healed. |
| M:23.6 | No one on earth can grasp what | Heaven is or what its one Creator really means. Yet we have |
| M:24.6 | total escape from the past and total lack of interest in the future. | Heaven is here. There is nowhere else. Heaven is now. There is no |
| M:24.6 | of interest in the future. Heaven is here. There is nowhere else. | Heaven is now. There is no other time. No teaching that does not lead |
| M:28.2 | of forgiveness. There is no sorrow still upon the earth. The joy of | Heaven has come upon it. |
| M:28.3 | come. The goal of the curriculum has been achieved. Thoughts turn to | Heaven and away from hell. All longings are satisfied, for what |
| M:28.4 | up from the dust and look upon our perfect sinlessness. The song of | Heaven sounds around the world, as it is lifted up and brought to |

| W1:153.13 | and childish thoughts of sin forever from the pure and holy minds of | Heaven's children and the Son of God. We pause but for a moment more |
| W1:154.6 | There is one major difference in the role of | Heaven's messengers which sets them off from those the world |
| W1:159.3 | can show but twisted images in broken parts. The real world pictures | Heaven's innocence. |
| W1:163.4 | stronger than God's Will for life, the endlessness of love and | Heaven's perfect, changeless constancy. Here is the Will of Father |
| W1:186.1 | is done on earth as well as Heaven. It unites all wills on earth in | Heaven's plan to save the world, restoring it to Heaven's peace. |

| W1:193.20 | repeat these selfsame words. And then you hold the key that opens | Heaven's gate and brings the Love of God the Father down to earth at |

| W1:76.11 | created as His channel for creation, denied to Him by his belief in | hell. |
| W1:89.5 | and perceive them as one. By this idea do I accept my release from | hell. By this idea do I express my willingness to have all my |
| W1:121.7 | teach your own how to forgive itself. Each one awaits release from | hell through you and turns to you imploringly for Heaven here and |
| W1:121.7 | mind must learn through your forgiveness that it has been saved from | hell. And as you teach salvation, you will learn. |
| W1:122.8 | Forgiveness is the means by which it comes to take the place of | hell. In quietness it rises up to greet your open eyes and fill your |
| W1:122.9 | we hold the key within our hands, accepting Heaven's answer to the | hell we made, but where we would remain no more. |
| W1:122.10 | gladly give a quarter of an hour to the search in which the end of | hell is guaranteed. Begin in hopefulness, for we have reached the |
| W1:130.11 | only what you see. Perception is consistent with your choice, and | hell or Heaven comes to you as one. |
| W1:130.12 | Accept a little part of | hell as real, and you have damned your eyes and cursed your sight, |
| W1:130.12 | damned your eyes and cursed your sight, and what you will behold is | hell indeed. Yet the release of Heaven still remains within your |
| W1:130.12 | within your range of choice to take the place of everything that | hell would show to you. All you need say to any part of hell, |
| W1:130.12 | that hell would show to you. All you need say to any part of | hell, whatever form it takes, is simply this: |
| W1:131.5 | though he try to force delay, deceive himself, and think that it is | hell he seeks. When he is wrong, he finds correction; when he wanders |
| W1:131.6 | No one remains in | hell, for no one can abandon his Creator nor affect His perfect, |
| W1:131.9 | is His creation split in two. How could it be His Son could be in | hell when God Himself established him in Heaven? Could he lose what |
| W1:131.10 | himself and contradicts what has no opposite. He thinks he made a | hell opposing Heaven and believes that he abides in what does not |
| W1:134.10 | between the world you see and that which lies beyond, between the | hell of guilt and Heaven's gate. |
| W1:135.26 | that you must be defended from release. Heaven asks nothing. It is | hell that makes extravagant demands for sacrifice. You give up |
| W1:136.10 | body is more powerful than everlasting life, Heaven more frail than | hell, and God's design for the salvation of His Son opposed by a |
| W1:136.12 | laws by which you thought to govern it. And Heaven has not bowed to | hell, nor life to death. You can but choose to think you die or |
| W1:138.1 | and what we want we choose. If Heaven exists, there must be | hell as well, for contradiction is the way we make what we perceive |
| W1:138.2 | the choice of Heaven seem to be the same as the relinquishment of | hell. It is not really thus. Yet what is true in God's creation |
| W1:138.7 | from the intent you gave it, that it be a means for demonstrating | hell is real, hope changes to despair, and life itself must in the |
| W1:138.10 | choice of Heaven is as sure as is the ending of the fear of | hell when it is raised from its protective shield of unawareness and |
| W1:152.11 | sinlessness, his Father's Love, his right to Heaven and release from | hell are joyously accepted as our own. Now do we join in glad |
| W1:154.1 | we cannot see in its entirety. Our part is cast in Heaven, not in | hell. And what we think is weakness can be strength; what we believe |
| W1:182.3 | made by him. There is no substitute for Heaven. All he ever made was | hell. |
| W1:185.2 | play with dreams nor think he is himself a dream. He cannot make a | hell and think it real. He wants the peace of God, and it is given |
| W1:190.11 | —we choose between illusions and the truth, or pain and joy, or | hell and Heaven. Let our gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts |
| W1:191.7 | Be glad today how very easily is | hell undone. You need but tell yourself: |
| W1:194.2 | Accept today's idea, and you have passed all anxiety, all pits of | hell, all blackness of depression, thoughts of sin, and devastation |
| W1:196.5 | stood for the belief the fear of God is real. And what is that but | hell? Who could believe his Father is his deadly enemy, separate from |
| W1:196.5 | destroy his life and blot him from the universe, without the fear of | hell upon his heart? |
| W1:197.3 | that they be a lasting offering of a thankful heart released from | hell forever. Is it this you would undo by taking back your gifts |
| W1:200.2 | only hurt, of making peace of chaos, joy of pain, and Heaven out of | hell. Attempt no more to win through losing, nor to die to live. You |
| W1:200.3 | what could be more foolish than to seek and seek and seek again for | hell, when you have but to look with open eyes to find that Heaven |
| W1:200.6 | function and does nothing, for it is unknown in Heaven. It is only | hell where it is needed and where it must serve a mighty function. Is |
| W2:WIB.4 | God's Son returns to sanity. Though it was made to fence him into | hell without escape, yet has the goal of Heaven been exchanged for |
| W2:WIB.4 | escape, yet has the goal of Heaven been exchanged for the pursuit of | hell. The Son of God extends his hand to reach his brother and to |
| W2:272.2 | be content with dreams when Heaven can be chosen just as easily as | hell and love will happily replace all fear. |
| W2:296.2 | How gladly does the Holy Spirit come to rescue us from | hell when we allow His teaching to persuade the world through us to |
| W2:WILJ.3 | You who believed that God's Last Judgment would condemn the world to | hell along with you, accept this holy truth: God's Judgment is the |
| W2:342.1 | I thank You, Father, for Your plan to save me from the | hell I made. It is not real. And You have given me the means to prove |
| W2:E.5 | And He will speak for God and for your Self, thus making sure that | hell will claim you not and that each choice you make brings Heaven |
| M:I.5 | must deceive, for they must teach deception. And what else is | hell? This is a manual for the teachers of God. They are not perfect |
| M:4.15 | natural. What choice but this has meaning to the sane? Who chooses | hell when he perceives a way to Heaven? And who would choose the |
| M:4.23 | on His behalf. As the projection of guilt upon him would send him to | hell, so open-mindedness lets Christ's image be projected on him. |
| M:11.4 | a thought of God has entered. What else but a thought of God turns | hell to Heaven merely by being what it is? The earth bows down before |
| M:13.6 | that echoes God's. If you would sacrifice the truth, they stay in | hell. And if they stay, you will remain with them. |
| M:13.7 | You cannot give up Heaven partially. You cannot be a little bit in | hell. The Word of God has no exceptions. It is this that makes it |
| M:14.5 | In blessing it departs, for it will not end as it began. To turn | hell into Heaven is the function of God's teachers, for what they |
| M:19.5 | mind desires to see. Remember this. In this lies either Heaven or | hell, as you elect. God's justice points to Heaven just because it is |
| M:21.3 | power of his decision offers it to him, as he requests. Herein lie | hell and Heaven. The sleeping Son of God has but this power left to |
| M:22.1 | Partial Atonement is a meaningless idea, just as special areas of | hell in Heaven is inconceivable. Accept Atonement, and you are |
| M:28.2 | as salvation, and pain and misery of any kind perceived as | hell. Love is no longer feared but gladly welcomed. Idols have |
| M:28.3 | curriculum has been achieved. Thoughts turn to Heaven and away from | hell. All longings are satisfied, for what remains unanswered or |
| M:28.6 | As long as any mind remains possessed of evil dreams, the thought of | hell is real. God's teachers have the goal of wakening the minds of |
| M:29.3 | merely because of your own inadequacies. It is the way out of | hell for you. |

| Tx:2.75 | fear, you are implying that it is not. You should ask instead for | help in the conditions which have brought the fear about. These |
| Tx:2.75 | always entail a separated mind willingness. At that level, you can | help it. You are much too tolerant of mind wandering, thus passively |
| Tx:2.90 | they are literally afraid of them. Many psychotherapists attempt to | help people who are afraid, say, of their death wishes by |
| Tx:2.93 | the most fundamental law there is in this world. I would hardly | help if I depreciated the power of your own thinking. This would be |
| Tx:2.94 | let them leave their minds unguarded, or they will not be able to | help me. Miracle working entails a full realization of the power of |
| Tx:2.108 | undertaken by God. Actually it will be undertaken by man with my | help. It is a final healing rather than a meting out of punishment, |
| Tx:3.49 | an act based on true perception. I cannot choose for you, but I can | help you make your own right choice. “Many are called, but few are |

| Tx:4.104 | home. When it is threatened, the ego blocks your natural impulse to | help, placing you under the strain of divided will. You may then be |
| Tx:5.27 | gave me all power in Heaven and earth. My only gift to you is to | help you make the same decision for yourself. The will for this |
| Tx:5.44 | You must have noticed how often I have used your own ideas to | help you. You have learned to be a loving, wise, and very |
| Tx:5.46 | anything that is true. However, the Holy Spirit will not fail to | help you reinterpret everything that you perceive as fearful and |
| Tx:5.48 | and “healthy” guilt feelings is that neurotic guilt feelings do not | help anyone. This distinction is wise though incomplete. Let us make |

| Tx:6.16 | cannot either hurt or be hurt and that many need your blessing to | help them hear this for themselves. When you perceive only this need |
| Tx:6.47 | speak first, but He always answers. Everyone has called upon Him for | help at one time or another and in one way or another and has been |
| Tx:6.54 | and thus side with the belief that those who have everything need | help and are therefore helpless. This is the kind of “reasoning” |
| Tx:6.75 | want peace, or you would not have called upon the Voice for Peace to | help you. His lesson is not insane; the conflict is. |
| Tx:6.76 | irrevocably for you. That is why we suggested before that there was | help in reminding yourselves to allow the Holy Spirit to decide for |
| Tx:7.43 | However misguided the “magical healer” may be, he is also trying to | help. He is conflicted and unstable, but at times he is offering |
| Tx:7.43 | is healing. When the so-called “healing” works, then, the impulse to | help and to be helped have coincided. This is coincidental, because |
| Tx:7.49 | changed him at all. By changing your mind about his for him, you | help him undo the change his ego thinks it has made in him. As you |
| Tx:8.30 | I can tell you what to do, but this will not | help you unless you collaborate by believing that I know what to do. |
| Tx:8.31 | things are possible through our joint will, but my will alone cannot | help you. Your will is as free as mine, and God Himself would not go |
| Tx:8.32 | only acknowledge in honor of His. If you want to be like me, I will | help you, knowing that we are alike. If you want to be different, I |
| Tx:8.36 | Help them by offering them your unified will on their behalf, as I am | |
| Tx:8.63 | The removal of blocks, then, is the only way to guarantee | help and healing. Help and healing are the normal expressions of a |
| Tx:8.63 | of blocks, then, is the only way to guarantee help and healing. | Help and healing are the normal expressions of a mind which is |
| Tx:8.93 | your will in your unconscious, where it remains available but cannot | help you. When we said that the Holy Spirit's function is to sort out |
| Tx:9.28 | human therapist can only let Him fulfill His function. He needs no | help for this. He will tell you exactly what to do to help anyone He |
| Tx:9.28 | He needs no help for this. He will tell you exactly what to do to | help anyone He sends to you for help and will speak to him through |
| Tx:9.28 | will tell you exactly what to do to help anyone He sends to you for | help and will speak to him through you if you do not interfere. |
| Tx:9.28 | you are choosing a guide for helping, and the wrong choice will not | help. But remember also that the right one will. Trust Him, for help |
| Tx:9.28 | not help. But remember also that the right one will. Trust Him, for | help is His function, and He is of God. |
| Tx:9.42 | regard yourself as inadequate. Would you look to the ego to | help you escape from a sense of inadequacy it has produced and must |
| Tx:9.75 | sickness and returned to His Mind. He will not limit your power to | help them, because He has given it to you. Do not be afraid of it, |
| Tx:9.83 | willing to give up your own perfect helpfulness and your own perfect | Help. |
| Tx:9.96 | Yet the Son is helpless without the Father, Who alone is his | help. We said before that of yourselves you can do nothing, but you |
| Tx:9.98 | you have been much mistaken. Yet this can be corrected, and God will | help you, knowing that you could not sin against Him. You denied Him |
| Tx:10.5 | lies the beginning of knowledge, the foundation on which God will | help you build again the thought system which you share with Him. Not |
| Tx:10.22 | on how you see it. The Holy Spirit is there, although He cannot | help you without your invitation, and the ego is nothing whether you |
| Tx:10.85 | loving thoughts are recognized, and because no one is without your | help, the Help of God goes with you everywhere. As you become willing |
| Tx:10.85 | are recognized, and because no one is without your help, the | Help of God goes with you everywhere. As you become willing to accept |
| Tx:10.85 | God goes with you everywhere. As you become willing to accept this | Help by asking for it, you will give it because you want it. Nothing |
| Tx:11.3 | loving thought is true. Everything else is an appeal for healing and | help. That is what it is, regardless of the form it takes. Can anyone |
| Tx:11.3 | Can anyone be justified in responding with anger to a plea for | help? No response can be appropriate except the willingness to give |
| Tx:11.4 | that it is not perfectly clear. If you maintain that an appeal for | help is something else, you will react to something else, and your |
| Tx:11.4 | There is nothing to prevent you from recognizing all calls for | help as exactly what they are except your own perceived need to |
| Tx:11.5 | he wants it to be. If you are unwilling to perceive an appeal for | help as what it is, it is because you are unwilling to give help and |
| Tx:11.5 | for help as what it is, it is because you are unwilling to give | help and to receive it. The analysis of the ego's “real” motivation |

| Tx:11.6 | Whenever you fail to recognize a call for help, you are refusing | help. Would you maintain that you do not need it? Yet this is what |
| Tx:11.6 | for only by answering his appeal can you be helped. Deny him your | help, and you will not perceive God's answer to you. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:11.6 | not perceive God's answer to you. The Holy Spirit does not need your | help in interpreting motivation, but you do need His. Only |
| Tx:11.6 | is due him for both his loving thoughts and his appeals for | help, for both are capable of bringing love into your awareness if |
| Tx:11.7 | you. Do not attempt to “help” a brother in your way, for you cannot | help yourselves. But hear his call for the help of God, and you will |
| Tx:11.7 | your way, for you cannot help yourselves. But hear his call for the | help of God, and you will recognize your own need for the Father. |
| Tx:11.8 | of your brother's need is your interpretation of yours. By giving | help you are asking for it, and if you perceive but one need in |
| Tx:11.8 | your awareness. For the sake of your need, then, hear every call for | help as what it is, so God can answer you. |
| Tx:11.10 | thoughts in others and to regard everything else as an appeal for | help, He has taught you that fear is an appeal for help. This is what |
| Tx:11.10 | as an appeal for help, He has taught you that fear is an appeal for | help. This is what recognizing it really means. If you do not protect |
| Tx:11.10 | If only attack produces fear and if you see attack as the call for | help that it is, the unreality of fear must dawn upon you. For fear |
| Tx:11.17 | if they hide their nightmares, they will keep them. It is easy to | help an uncertain child, for he recognizes that he does not know what |
| Tx:11.18 | not delay this, for your dream of hatred will not leave you without | help, and help is here. Learn to be quiet in the midst of turmoil, |
| Tx:11.18 | this, for your dream of hatred will not leave you without help, and | help is here. Learn to be quiet in the midst of turmoil, for |
| Tx:11.20 | Our mission is to escape crucifixion, not redemption. Trust in my | help, for I did not walk alone, and I will walk with you as our |
| Tx:11.23 | His knowledge remains useless to you. Surely He will not fail to | help you, since help is His only purpose. Do you not have greater |
| Tx:11.23 | remains useless to you. Surely He will not fail to help you, since | help is His only purpose. Do you not have greater reason for fearing |
| Tx:11.24 | they are poor indeed! Because they are in need, it is given you to | help them since you are among them. Consider how perfectly your |
| Tx:11.26 | asks for gifts, not for further impoverishment. You who could | help them are surely acting destructively if you accept their poverty |
| Tx:12.18 | all your grandiosity, which you hold so dear, is your real call for | help. For you call for love to your Father as your Father calls you |
| Tx:12.62 | come to you. Love always answers, being unable to deny a call for | help or not to hear the cries of pain that rise to it from every part |
| Tx:13.5 | into the darkened world to make Christ's vision possible even here. | Help Him to give His gift of light to all who think they wander in |
| Tx:13.40 | without a difference of any kind. For you will need no contrast to | help you realize that this is what you want, and only this. Fear not |
| Tx:13.75 | you will have to make decisions for yourself. You are not bereft of | help, and Help that knows the answer. Would you be content with |
| Tx:13.75 | have to make decisions for yourself. You are not bereft of help, and | Help that knows the answer. Would you be content with little, which |
| Tx:14.2 | you, for there is no parallel in your experience of the world to | help you understand it. There is nothing on earth with which it can |
| Tx:14.46 | itself is beyond all time. Reach out of time and touch it, with the | help of its reflection in you. And you will turn from time to |
| Tx:14.51 | The miracle offers exactly the same response to every call for | help. It does not judge the call. It merely recognizes what it is and |
| Tx:14.51 | call from anyone. There is no order of difficulty here. A call for | help is given help. |
| Tx:14.51 | There is no order of difficulty here. A call for help is given | help. |
| Tx:14.60 | the present no meaning at all. Nothing you have ever learned can | help you understand the present or teach you how to undo the past. |
| Tx:15.21 | yourself as not separate. Fear not that you will not be given | help in this. God's Teacher and His lesson will support your |
| Tx:15.34 | of God and of the Heaven that is in him. For where you would | help your brother be, there will you think you are. Hear not his call |
| Tx:16.26 | not beyond yourself, the witnesses to your teaching have gathered to | help you learn. Their gratitude has joined with yours and God's to |
| Tx:16.27 | gratitude to your Self, Who teaches you what He is, will grow and | help you honor Him. And you will learn His power and strength and |
| Tx:16.37 | waits silently, and your creations are holding out their hands to | help you cross and welcome them. For it is they you seek. You seek |
| Tx:16.40 | hate and in every fantasy that rises to delay you but the call for | help which rises ceaselessly from you to your Creator. Would He not |
| Tx:16.60 | and comfort you. There is a way in which the Holy Spirit asks your | help if you would have His. The holy instant is His most helpful tool |
| Tx:16.69 | The Holy Spirit asks only this little | help of you. Whenever your thoughts wander to a special relationship |
| Tx:16.79 | of God and not the ego in seeking how Atonement can come to you. His | help suffices, for His Messenger understands how to restore the |
| Tx:16.81 | Forgive us our illusions, Father, and | help us to accept our true relationship with You in which there are |
| Tx:17.53 | many mistakes since then, you have also made enormous efforts to | help Him do His work. And He has not been lacking in appreciation for |
| Tx:18.9 | you would have it be. Give Him but a little faith in each other, to | help Him show you that no substitute you made for Heaven can keep you |
| Tx:18.20 | nor snatch it away from you. [But He does use it differently, as a | help to make His purpose real to you.] Your special relationship will |
| Tx:18.30 | fear that you experience is really past. Time has been readjusted to | help us do together what your separate pasts would hinder. You have |
| Tx:18.42 | attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the Holy Spirit's | help. That is His function. Your part is only to offer Him a little |
| Tx:18.84 | and needs no guide. Yet this wild and delusional thought needs | help because in its delusions it thinks it is the Son of God, whole |
| Tx:19.15 | will keep your little kingdoms barren and separate, so will faith | help the Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy garden |
| Tx:19.28 | What could it be but a mistake you would keep hidden—a call for | help that you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In time the |
| Tx:19.34 | the instant that you give it no power over each other. And you will | help each other overcome mistakes by joyously releasing one another |
| Tx:19.97 | led you here. No obstacle to peace can be surmounted through its | help. It does not open up its secrets and bid you look on them and go |
| Tx:19.105 | and remove all trace of guilt from his disturbed and tortured mind. | Help him to lift the heavy burden of sin you laid upon him and he |
| Tx:20.3 | not wander into the temptation of crucifixion and delay him there. | Help him to go in peace beyond it, with the light of his own |
| Tx:20.33 | you to learn. For He Who knows the rest will see to it without your | help. But think not that He does not need your part to help Him with |
| Tx:20.33 | without your help. But think not that He does not need your part to | help Him with the rest. For in your part lies all of it, without |
| Tx:20.71 | of weakness, vulnerability, and loss of power. Can such a savior | help you? Would you turn in your distress and need for help unto the |
| Tx:20.71 | such a savior help you? Would you turn in your distress and need for | help unto the helpless? Is the pitifully little the perfect choice to |
| Tx:21.40 | serve the Holy Spirit's goal and give it power to serve as means to | help the blind to see. But in their seeing, they look past it, as do |
| Tx:21.50 | from you to be itself. But your awareness of it needs your | help because it is your choice. Listen to what the ego says and see |
| Tx:21.51 | as breathing to the body. They are the obvious response to calls for | help, the only one It makes. Miracles seem unnatural to the ego |
| Tx:21.59 | Reason will also tell you when you think you sin, you call for | help. Yet if you will not accept the help you call for, you will not |
| Tx:21.59 | you think you sin, you call for help. Yet if you will not accept the | help you call for, you will not believe that it is yours to give. And |
| Tx:21.89 | final question. Your answer to the others has made it possible to | help you be but partially insane. And yet it is the final one that |
| Tx:22.31 | a key, across the road to peace. No one who looks on it without the | help of reason would try to pass it. The body's eyes behold it as |
| Tx:23.5 | of him. Leave him not frightened and alone in his temptation but | help him rise above it and perceive the light of which he is a part. |
| Tx:23.25 | this third principle. Now it becomes impossible to turn to Him for | help in misery. For now He has become the “enemy” Who caused it and |
| Tx:23.25 | in its attack. And now is conflict made inevitable and beyond the | help of God. And now salvation must remain impossible because the |
| Tx:23.26 | is the Will of God. From where all this begins, there is no sight of | help that can succeed. Only destruction can be the outcome. And God |
| Tx:24.8 | you journey with him to a goal that is the same? Would you not | help him reach it in every way you could if his attainment of it were |
| Tx:25.27 | need he stay more than an instant.] For he has come with Heaven's | Help within him ready to lead him out of darkness into light at any |
| Tx:25.28 | The time he chooses can be any time, for | help is there, awaiting but his choice. And when he chooses to avail |
| Tx:25.31 | himself? Is this a sin or a mistake, forgivable or not? Does he need | help or condemnation? Is it your purpose that he be saved or damned? |
| Tx:25.71 | being separate and apart from love. And what but vengeance now can | help and save, while love stands feebly by with helpless hands, |
| Tx:25.84 | Salvation cannot seek to | help God's Son be more unfair than he has sought to be. If miracles, |
| Tx:25.84 | you want it solved. To keep it for yourself to solve without His | help is to decide it should remain unsettled, unresolved, and lasting |
| Tx:26.30 | learn. And you can learn it many different ways. All learning is a | help or hindrance to the gate of Heaven. Nothing in between is |
| Tx:26.51 | value and less willingly offered to truth for healing and for | help. No illusion has any truth in it. Yet it appears some are more |
| Tx:27.44 | only way to heal is to be healed. The miracle extends without your | help, but you are needed that it can begin. Accept the miracle of |
| Tx:27.59 | are but a single sound—a call for healing and a plaintive cry for | help within a world of misery. It is their sameness that the miracle |

| Tx:30.29 | you decide. For they are made with idols or with God. And you ask | help of Christ or anti-Christ, and which you choose will join with |
| Tx:30.71 | natural reaction to distress which rests on error and thus calls for | help. Forgiveness is the only sane response. It keeps your rights |

| Tx:31.64 | that this should be your choice. For you can see the body without | help but do not understand how to behold a world apart from it. It is |
| W1:3.2 | The point of the exercises is to | help you clear your mind of all past associations, to see things |
| W1:5.5 | giving greater weight to some subjects than to others. It might | help to precede the exercises with the statement: |
| W1:10.5 | This idea will | help to release me from all that I now believe. |
| W1:10.9 | This idea will | help to release me from all that I now believe. |
| W1:26.4 | Practice with today's idea will | help you to understand that vulnerability or invulnerability is the |
| W1:30.4 | Real vision is not limited to concepts such as “near” and “far.” To | help you begin to get used to this idea, try to think of things |
| W1:33.5 | the idea to yourself several times. Closing your eyes will probably | help in this form of application. |
| W1:34.7 | If you find you need more than one application of today's idea to | help you change your mind in any specific context, try to take |
| W1:34.7 | to repeating the idea until you feel some sense of relief. It will | help you if you tell yourself specifically: |
| W1:38.2 | with yourself and with anyone else. It is equal in its power to | help anyone because it is equal in its power to save anyone. If you |
| W1:50.4 | Repeat it, think about it, let related thoughts come to | help you recognize its truth, and allow peace to flow over you like a |
| W1:59.3 | it to me. Let me call upon this gift today, so that this day may | help me to understand eternity. |
| W1:62.4 | and to use it as frequently as possible throughout the day. It will | help to make the day as happy for you as God wants you to be. And it |
| W1:62.4 | to make the day as happy for you as God wants you to be. And it will | help those around you as well as those who seem to be far away in |
| W1:64.9 | reflecting on this with closed eyes. Related thoughts will come to | help you if you remember the crucial importance of your function to |
| W1:64.10 | may need to repeat “Let me not forget my function” quite often, to | help you concentrate. |
| W1:69.7 | effort and small determination call on the power of the universe to | help you, and God Himself will raise you from darkness into light. |
| W1:70.4 | God would not have put the remedy for sickness where it cannot | help. That is the way your mind has worked, but hardly His. He wants |
| W1:72.4 | with what he does in a body. We are doing more than failing to | help in freeing him from its limitations. We are actively trying to |
| W1:73.17 | you are tempted to hold a grievance of any kind. This will | help you let your grievances go instead of cherishing them and hiding |
| W1:81.7 | Let this | help me learn what forgiveness means. Let me not separate my function |
| W1:93.2 | These are beliefs so firmly fixed that it is difficult to | help you see that they are based on nothing. That you have made |
| W1:95.19 | Do not forget today. We need your | help, your little part in bringing happiness to all the world. And |
| W1:97.5 | Give Him the minutes which He needs today to | help you understand with Him you are the Spirit that abides in Him, |
| W1:98.13 | once more that you accept the part which He would have you take and | help you fill, and He will make you sure you want this choice, which |
| W1:102.3 | to devote our longer practice periods to exercises planned to | help you reach the happiness God's Will has placed in you. Here is |
| W1:R3.11 | things, but try to keep the thought with you and let it serve to | help you keep your peace throughout the day as well. If you are |
| W1:R3.11 | are shaken, think of it again. These practice periods are planned to | help you form the habit of applying what you learn each day to |
| W1:R3.12 | serve you in all ways, all times and places, and whenever you need | help of any kind. Try, then, to take it with you in the business of |
| W1:125.6 | Word in quiet. There is peace within you to be called upon today to | help make ready your most holy mind to hear the Voice of its Creator |
| W1:126.2 | your attitudes have no effect on them, and their appeals for | help are not in any way related to your own. You further think that |
| W1:126.8 | the truth that giver and receiver are the same. You will need | help to make this meaningful because it is so alien to the thoughts |
| W1:126.8 | it is so alien to the thoughts to which you are accustomed. But the | Help you need is there. Give Him your faith today and ask Him that He |
| W1:126.10 | changed and false beliefs laid by. Repeat today's idea, and ask for | help in understanding what it really means. Be willing to be taught. |
| W1:126.12 | All that I give is given to myself. The | Help I need to learn that this is true is with me now. And I will |
| W1:127.5 | No laws the world obeys can | help you grasp love's meaning. What the world believes was made to |
| W1:127.8 | what love means. He will shine through your idle thoughts today and | help you understand the truth of love. In loving gentleness, He will |
| W1:130.8 | hands of all the petty treasures of this world. You wait for God to | help you as you say: |
| W1:136.16 | which we give today. We introduce it with a healing prayer to | help us rise above defensiveness and let truth be as it has always |
| W1:137.10 | His life becomes your own as you extend the little | help He asks in freeing you from everything that ever caused you |
| W1:138.7 | So we begin today considering the choice that time was made to | help us make. Such is its holy purpose, now transformed from the |
| W1:138.9 | raised to understanding to be judged again, this time with Heaven's | help, and all mistakes in judgment which the mind had made before are |
| W1:153.11 | It is the function of God's ministers to | help their brothers choose as they have done. God has elected all, |
| W1:153.20 | Your practicing will now begin to take the earnestness of love to | help you keep your mind from wandering from its intent. |
| W1:R5.9 | turns to the light in him and looks for me. I have forgotten no one. | Help me now to lead you back to where the journey was begun, to make |
| W1:182.6 | easily shut out, His tiny Voice so readily obscured, His calls for | help almost unheard amid the grating sounds and harsh and rasping |
| W1:182.11 | called you friend and brother. He has even come to you to ask your | help in letting Him go home completed and completely. He has come as |
| W1:185.10 | of what you wanted, where to look for it, and where to turn for | help in the attempt. Help has been given you. And would you not avail |
| W1:185.10 | where to look for it, and where to turn for help in the attempt. | Help has been given you. And would you not avail yourself of it by |
| W1:185.14 | has sought to sever, but which still remains as God created it. With | help like this beside us, can we fail today as we request the peace |
| W1:193.12 | God would not have you suffer thus. He would | help you forgive yourself. His Son does not remember who he is. And |
| W1:196.12 | There is no thought of God that does not go with you to | help you reach that instant and to go beyond it quickly, surely, and |
| W1:199.5 | you take. There is no thought that will not gain thereby in power to | help the world, and none which will not gain in added gifts to you as |
| W1:R6.11 | He will not fail to be available to you each time you call to Him to | help you. Let us offer Him the whole review we now begin, and let us |
| W2:234.2 | thanks for all the gifts You have bestowed on us, for all the loving | help we have received, for Your eternal patience, and the Word which |
| W2:242.2 | and our needs. And You will give us everything we want and that will | help us find the way to You. |

| W2:292.2 | You, Father, for Your guarantee of only happy outcomes in the end. | Help us not interfere and so delay the happy endings You have |
| W2:294.2 | or sinless, neither good nor bad. Let me, then, use this dream to | help Your plan that we awaken from all dreams we made. |
| W2:295.2 | Christ has asked a gift of me, and one I give that it be given me. | Help me to use the eyes of Christ today and thus allow the Holy |
| W2:305.2 | of Christ is given us because it is Your will that we be saved. | Help us today but to accept Your gift and judge it not. For it has |
| W2:325.1 | a kindly home where he can rest a while before he journeys on and | help his brothers walk ahead with him and find the way to Heaven and |
| W2:327.1 | me and loves me still, awaiting but my call to give me all the | help I need to come to Him. |
| W2:345.1 | work. The miracles I give are given back in just the form I need to | help me with the problems I perceive. Father, in Heaven it is |

| W2:359.1 | the shadow world we see. Help us forgive, for we would be redeemed. | Help us forgive, for we would be at peace. |
| W2:FL.6 | come in honesty to Him and say we did not understand and ask Him to | help us to learn His lessons through the Voice of His own Teacher. |
| W2:361.1 | And if I need a word to | help me, He will give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He |

| M:17.2 | beneath a wish to help. It is this double wish that makes the | help of little value and must lead to undesired outcomes. Nor should |
| M:17.2 | yourself? And where could this be better shown than in the kinds of | help the teacher gives to those who need his aid? Here is his gift |
| M:17.3 | the divided goal of the pupil into one direction, with the call for | help becoming his one appeal. This then is easily responded to with |
| M:17.6 | death. How then can one believe in one's defenses? Magic again must | help. Forget the battle. Accept it as a fact, and then forget it. Do |
| M:21.2 | word, the word has little or no practical meaning and thus cannot | help the healing process. The prayer of the heart does not really ask |
| M:23.3 | learning guarantees your own success. Is he still available for | help? What did he say about this? Remember his promises, and ask |
| M:23.7 | Certainly there are. Would God leave anyone without a very present | help in time of trouble? A savior who can symbolize Himself? Yet do |
| M:26.2 | give all their gifts to the teachers of God who look to them for | help, asking all things in their name and in no other. |
| M:26.4 | it when it comes. Nor will its coming be long delayed. All the | help you can accept will be provided, and not one need you have will |

| Tx:2.103 | about readiness, but there are some additional points which might be | helpful here. Readiness is nothing more than the prerequisite for |

| Tx:5.12 | to knowledge or cross over into it. It might even be more | helpful here to use the literal meaning of “carried” over since the |
| Tx:5.44 | effort, to understand someone else to some extent and to be quite | helpful to him, but the effort is misdirected. The misdirection is |
| Tx:5.83 | fixed in the peace of God. The concept of “fixation” is also a very | helpful one which Freud understood perfectly. Unfortunately, he lost |
| Tx:6.2 | your model for learning, since an extreme example is a particularly | helpful learning device. Everyone teaches and teaches all the time. |

| M:4.6 | because, having learned that the changes in his life are always | helpful, he must now decide all things on the basis of whether they |
| M:4.6 | that all things, events, encounters, and circumstances are | helpful. It is only to the extent to which they are helpful that any |

| Tx:11.77 | you really believe that you can kill the Son of God? The Father has | hidden His Son safely within Himself and kept him far away from your |

| Tx:17.21 | in separation is that it must be undone. Let Him uncover the | hidden spark of beauty in your relationships and show it to you. Its |

| Tx:18.88 | by its heavy coverings and kept apart from what was made to keep it | hidden. The body cannot see this, for the body arose from this for |
| Tx:19.28 | What, then, is sin? What could it be but a mistake you would keep | hidden—a call for help that you would keep unheard and thus |
| Tx:19.34 | quickly recognized and quickly given to correction to be healed, not | hidden. You will be healed of sin and all its ravages the instant |
| Tx:19.72 | in the body. And it is this insane relationship which it keeps | hidden and yet feeds upon. To you it teaches that the body's pleasure |
| Tx:19.84 | that peace must flow across seems to be very great. For in it lies | hidden all the ego's secrets, all its strange devices for deception, |
| Tx:20.12 | ready to be unveiled and freed from all the terror that kept it | hidden. There is no fear in love. The song of Easter is the glad |
| Tx:20.47 | in the body's darkness where they can hide and keep their secrets | hidden along with them. And they have no relationships, for no one |
| Tx:20.48 | Love has no darkened temples where mysteries are kept obscure and | hidden from the sun. It does not seek for power, but for |
| Tx:20.49 | but a relationship. The body is an isolated speck of darkness; a | hidden secret room, a tiny spot of senseless mystery, a meaningless |
| Tx:20.63 | kept separated. Here are illusions never brought to truth and always | hidden from it. And here in darkness is your brother's reality |
| Tx:21.42 | This you believe, and so you do not look. Yet this is not the ego's | hidden fear, nor yours who serve it. Loudly indeed the ego claims it |
| Tx:22.8 | from His? Reason would tell you that this is no secret that need be | hidden as a sin. But a mistake indeed! Let not your fear of sin |

| Tx:23.28 | madness are seen emerging here: the “enemy,” made strong by keeping | hidden the valuable inheritance which should be yours; your justified |
| Tx:23.29 | “explained.” What is this precious thing, this priceless pearl, this | hidden secret treasure, to be wrested in righteous wrath from this |
| Tx:23.29 | why you found it not. For it was taken from you by this enemy and | hidden where you would not think to look. He hid it in his body, |
| Tx:23.30 | unveiled, the ego's secret gift, torn from your brother's body, | hidden there in malice and in hatred for the one to whom the gift |
| Tx:24.2 | to question every value that you hold. Not one can be kept | hidden and obscure but it will jeopardize your learning. No belief is |

| Tx:28.50 | the place where all your safety lies and where your Self is safely | hidden by what you have made. Here is a world established that is |
| Tx:29.24 | how eagerly he comes and steps aside from heavy shadows that have | hidden him and shines on you in gratitude and love. He is himself, |
| Tx:30.48 | holds of you is your reality. Forget not, then, that idols must keep | hidden what you are, not from the Mind of God, but from your own. The |
| Tx:31.8 | see you were mistaken. You had been deceived by forms the call was | hidden in. And so you did not hear it and had lost a friend who |
| Tx:31.52 | was there to make the other? And from whom must something be kept | hidden? If the world be evil, there is still no need to hide what you |
| Tx:31.82 | Let not the world's light, given unto you, be | hidden from the world. It needs the light, for it is dark indeed, and |
| Tx:31.94 | ours! And thus will all the vestiges of hell, the secret “sins,” and | hidden hates be gone. And all the loveliness which they concealed |

| W2:239.1 | Let not the truth about ourselves today be | hidden by a false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the gifts |
| W2:258.1 | senseless aims and to remember that our goal is God. His memory is | hidden in our minds, obscured but by our pointless little goals which |

| Tx:4.50 | It is necessary to repeat here that your belief in darkness and in | hiding is why the light cannot enter. The Bible gives many references |

| Tx:11.22 | for the awareness of your fear? When we have overcome fear—not by | hiding it, not by minimizing it, not by denying its full import in |
| Tx:12.19 | in peace and joy. But exempt no one from your love, or you will be | hiding a dark place in your mind where the Holy Spirit is not |
| Tx:14.25 | of belief, the truth lies hidden. Yet you cannot know this, for by | hiding truth in fear, you see no reason to believe the more you look |
| Tx:14.38 | Spirit's only function. Keep not your making from your Father, for | hiding it has cost you knowledge of Him and of yourselves. The |

| Tx:20.49 | senseless mystery, a meaningless enclosure carefully protected, yet | hiding nothing. Here the unholy relationship escapes reality and |
| Tx:23.29 | look. He hid it in his body, making it the cover for his guilt, the | hiding place for what belongs to you. Now must his body be destroyed |
| Tx:31.64 | must be passed that both may disappear, so that perception finds no | hiding place. How is this done? It is not done at all. What could |

| Tx:1.79 | below me and I stand below God. In the process of “rising up,” I am | higher. This is because, without me, the distance between God and man |
| Tx:1.81 | with God, the need for miracles is over. The Holy Spirit mediates | higher to lower communication, keeping the direct channel from God to |
| Tx:1.98 | 53. The miracle compares what man has made with the | higher level creation, accepting what is in accord as true and |
| Tx:1.98 | All aspects of fear are untrue because they do not exist at the | higher creative level, and therefore do not exist at all. To whatever |
| Tx:2.71 | that charity lies within the human limitations, though toward its | higher levels. We said before that only revelation transcends time. |
| Tx:2.72 | because its presence shows that you have raised the unimportant to a | higher level than it warrants. You have thus brought it under your |

| Tx:2.96 | to the more superficial unconscious levels, to which the individual | himself contributes. This is the level at which he can readily |
| Tx:2.98 | been said that man believes he cannot control fear because he | himself created it. His belief in it seems to render it out of his |
| Tx:2.98 | interim, the sense of conflict is inevitable since man has placed | himself in a strangely illogical position. He believes in the power |
| Tx:2.105 | his magic-miracle confusion is to remember that he did not create | himself. He is apt to forget this when he becomes egocentric, and |
| Tx:2.109 | own creations and will to preserve only what is good, just as God | Himself looked upon what He had created and knew that it was good. |
| Tx:2.111 | is really alive. His own last judgment cannot be directed toward | himself because he is not his own creation. He can, however, apply it |
| Tx:3.3 | in this course, however, do involve a more direct approach to God | Himself. It would be most unwise to start on these steps without |
| Tx:3.12 | have to pause and ask, “How could this be?” Is it likely that God | Himself would be capable of the kind of thinking which His own words |
| Tx:3.13 | result, undertaken to justify the terrible misperception that God | Himself persecuted His own Son on behalf of salvation. The very words |
| Tx:3.15 | that way. He does not hold the evil deeds of a man even against | himself. Is it likely, then, that He would hold against anyone the |
| Tx:3.17 | God | Himself is not symbolic; He is fact. The Atonement too is totally |
| Tx:3.26 | really unable to deny truth totally, even if he generally deceives | himself in this connection. That is why those who live largely in |
| Tx:3.40 | Consciousness was the first split that man introduced into | himself. He became a perceiver rather than a creator in the true |
| Tx:3.40 | as the domain of the ego. The ego is a man-made attempt to perceive | himself as he wished to be rather than as he is. This is an example |
| Tx:3.40 | confusion we have spoken of before. Yet man can only know | himself as he is because that is all he can be sure of. Everything |
| Tx:3.41 | compartment in the post-separation psyche which man created for | himself. It is capable of asking valid questions but not of |
| Tx:3.42 | always possible. Man has every reason to feel afraid as he perceives | himself. This is why he cannot escape from fear until he knows that |
| Tx:3.42 | escape from fear until he knows that he did not and could not create | himself. He can never make his misperceptions valid. His creation is |
| Tx:3.43 | and this is indeed a miracle in view of how man perceives | himself. |
| Tx:3.46 | form of creation, then permitted man to interpret the body as | himself, which, though depressing, was an attempt to escape from the |
| Tx:3.53 | you most is the fundamental question which man continually asks of | himself, but which cannot properly be directed to himself at all. He |
| Tx:3.53 | asks of himself, but which cannot properly be directed to | himself at all. He keeps asking himself what he is. This implies that |
| Tx:3.53 | which cannot properly be directed to himself at all. He keeps asking | himself what he is. This implies that the answer is not only one |
| Tx:3.54 | Man cannot perceive | himself correctly. He has no image. The word “image” is always |
| Tx:3.54 | needless complexities are the result of man's attempt to regard | himself as both separated and unseparated at the same time. It is |
| Tx:3.56 | already have. In electing to perceive instead of to know, man placed | himself in a position where he could resemble his Father only by |
| Tx:3.56 | only by miraculously perceiving. He has lost the knowledge that he | himself is a miracle. Miraculous creation was his Source and also his |
| Tx:3.66 | problem,” it is always because he believes he is the author of | himself, projects his delusion onto others, and then perceives the |
| Tx:3.74 | no sense. The whole picture is one in which man acts in a way he | himself realizes is self-destructive but which he does not choose to |
| Tx:3.77 | Knowledge cannot deceive, but perception can. Man can perceive | himself as self-creating, but he cannot do more than believe it. He |
| Tx:4.19 | else is sufficiently worthy to be a gift for a creation of God | Himself. |
| Tx:4.20 | father can safely leave a child with an elder brother who has shown | himself responsible, but this involves no confusion about the child's |
| Tx:4.20 | and his ego, which are very closely related, but he does not confuse | himself with the father because he does this, although the child may. |
| Tx:4.25 | Each man makes one ego for | himself, although it is subject to enormous variation because of its |
| Tx:4.27 | No one disowns something he regards as a very real part of | himself. Man reacts to his ego much as God does to His Souls: with |
| Tx:4.46 | lofty is actually much greater to the ego because the pull of God | Himself can hardly be equated with the pull of human appetites. By |
| Tx:4.63 | have refused? There is no limit to the power of a Son of God, but he | himself can limit the expression of his power as much as he chooses. |
| Tx:4.65 | You are mirrors of truth in which God | Himself shines in perfect light. To the ego's dark glass you need but |
| Tx:4.76 | metal into gold. The one question which the alchemist did not permit | himself to ask was, “What for?” He could not ask this because it |
| Tx:4.79 | than his own and to limit his questions about both the patient and | himself to the trivial. |
| Tx:4.99 | that is real can be increased except by sharing. That is why God | Himself created you. Divine Abstraction takes joy in application, and |
| Tx:4.105 | heals itself. Rehabilitation is an attitude of praising God as He | Himself knows praise. He offers praise to you, and you must offer it |
| Tx:5.3 | It is impossible for a Child of God to love his neighbor except as | himself. That is why the healer's prayer is: |
| Tx:5.5 | calls to every part of the Sonship to rejoice with them and lets God | Himself go out into them and through them. Only the healed mind can |
| Tx:5.11 | higher or the “true” perception, which is so close to truth that God | Himself can flow across the little gap. Knowledge is always ready to |
| Tx:5.18 | God | Himself keeps this will alive by transmitting it from His Mind to |
| Tx:5.33 | your brother does not have to be aware of the Holy Spirit either in | himself or in you for this miracle to occur. |
| Tx:5.68 | Irrational thought is a thought disorder. God | Himself orders your thought because your thought was created by Him. |
| Tx:5.68 | responsibility of the miracle worker is to accept the Atonement for | himself, and I assure you that it is, then the responsibility for |
| Tx:5.71 | You do not belong in time. Your place is only in eternity, where God | Himself placed you forever. |
| Tx:5.79 | witness to guilt in God's creations is bearing false witness to God | Himself. |
| Tx:5.84 | potential value of his thought system, because he did not include | himself in it. This is a dissociated state, because the thinker cuts |
| Tx:5.84 | himself in it. This is a dissociated state, because the thinker cuts | himself off from his thoughts. Freud's thought was so conflicted that |
| Tx:5.88 | as an irrevocable call to sanity which the mind cannot lose. Freud | himself could not accept this interpretation, but throughout his |
| Tx:5.91 | at times, but they have not raised the dead. Unless the healer heals | himself, he does not believe that there is no order of difficulty in |
| Tx:5.92 | which you think are made upon you when you know the Voice of God | Himself is in you? God commended His Spirit to you and asks that you |
| Tx:5.93 | because, as I told you before, the remedy is not of your making. God | Himself gave you the perfect correction for everything you have made |
| Tx:6.10 | on your minds of what is already in them. God placed it there | Himself, and so it is true forever. I believed in it and therefore |
| Tx:6.37 | and therefore to deceive. The Holy Spirit projects by recognizing | Himself in every mind and thus perceives them as one. Nothing |
| Tx:6.37 | the Holy Spirit perceives is the same. Wherever He looks He sees | Himself, and because He is united, He offers the whole Kingdom |
| Tx:6.60 | lies in dreams, and the Holy Spirit, shining with the light from God | Himself, speaks only for what lasts forever. |
| Tx:6.71 | this as an attack on them. This is because everyone identifies | himself with his thought system, and every thought system centers on |
| Tx:6.73 | lesson is the hardest to learn. Still strongly aware of the ego in | himself and responding primarily to the ego in others, he is being |
| Tx:6.80 | desire wholly is to create, and creating cannot be difficult if God | Himself created you as a creator. The second step, then, is still |
| Tx:6.84 | necessary only in your mind so that you cannot project falsely. God | Himself has established what you can project with perfect safety. |
| Tx:6.91 | you to identify only with the center, where God placed the altar to | Himself. We have already said that altars are beliefs, but God and |
| Tx:7.5 | you are determines your gifts, and if God created you by extending | Himself as you, you can only extend yourself as He did. Only joy |
| Tx:7.9 | which they share, can transfer to it. When a brother perceives | himself as sick, he is perceiving himself as not whole and therefore |
| Tx:7.9 | to it. When a brother perceives himself as sick, he is perceiving | himself as not whole and therefore in need. If you too see him this |
| Tx:7.13 | of the revelation in terms of sharing. A person conceives of | himself as separate largely because he perceives of himself as |
| Tx:7.13 | conceives of himself as separate largely because he perceives of | himself as bounded by a body. Only if he perceives himself as a mind |
| Tx:7.13 | he perceives of himself as bounded by a body. Only if he perceives | himself as a mind can [he overcome this]. Then he is free to use |
| Tx:7.14 | of the law is not adapted at all, being the law of creation. God | Himself created the law by creating by it. And His Sons, who create |
| Tx:7.24 | efforts and all results. By teaching the power of the Kingdom of God | Himself, He teaches you that all power is yours. Its application does |
| Tx:7.30 | God has lit your minds | Himself and keeps your minds lit by His light, because His light is |
| Tx:7.43 | This is coincidental, because the healer may not be experiencing | himself as truly helpful at the time, but the belief that he is, in |
| Tx:7.46 | comes from His and is like His. God cannot be out of accord with | Himself, and you cannot be out of accord with Him. You cannot |
| Tx:7.48 | It is only the Holy Spirit in him that never changes His Mind. He | himself must think he can, or he would not perceive himself as sick. |
| Tx:7.48 | His Mind. He himself must think he can, or he would not perceive | himself as sick. He therefore does not know what his self is. |
| Tx:7.50 | That is how God | Himself created you—in understanding, in appreciation, and in love. |
| Tx:7.76 | Only honor is a fitting gift for those whom God | Himself created worthy of honor and whom He honors. Give them the |
| Tx:7.80 | are part of God. You are as lonely without understanding this as God | Himself is lonely when His Sons do not know Him. The peace of God is |
| Tx:7.91 | you to deprive yourself of your creations than He wills to deprive | Himself of His. Do not withhold your gifts to the Sonship, or you |
| Tx:7.100 | Yet the function which God | Himself gave your minds through His you may deny, but you cannot |
| Tx:7.104 | The Holy Spirit is perfectly trustworthy, as you are. God | Himself trusts you, and therefore your trustworthiness is beyond |
| Tx:7.109 | of loss? Does it teach him that this giving is his joy and that God | Himself thanks him for his giving? That is the only environment in |
| Tx:8.9 | sense? Is this the teacher to whom a Son of God should turn to find | himself? The ego has never given you a sensible answer to anything. |
| Tx:8.14 | this is how you were created. Because your Creator creates only like | Himself, you are like Him. You are part of Him Who is all power and |
| Tx:8.18 | teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means of God | Himself. |
| Tx:8.20 | thyself. There is nothing else to learn. Everyone is looking for | himself and for the power and glory he thinks he has lost. Whenever |
| Tx:8.24 | So do you. God gives whatever belongs to Him, because He gives of | Himself, and everything belongs to Him. Giving of your self is the |
| Tx:8.31 | my will alone cannot help you. Your will is as free as mine, and God | Himself would not go against it. I cannot will what God does not |
| Tx:8.44 | he came home, the father welcomed him with joy, because only the son | himself was his father's treasure. He wanted nothing else. |
| Tx:8.45 | left your Creator, but they extend your creation as God extended | Himself to you. Can the creations of God Himself take joy in what is |
| Tx:8.45 | creation as God extended Himself to you. Can the creations of God | Himself take joy in what is not real? And what is real except the |
| Tx:8.46 | be no question of its worth because its value lies in God's sharing | Himself with it and establishing its value forever. |
| Tx:8.48 | It cannot be contradicted by thought. God does not contradict | Himself, and His Sons, who are like Him, cannot contradict themselves |
| Tx:8.50 | Our creations are as holy as we are, and we are the Sons of God | Himself and therefore as holy as He is. Through our creations, we |
| Tx:8.50 | has joined cannot be separated, and God has joined all His Sons with | Himself. Can you be separated from your life and your being? |
| Tx:8.53 | you will always experience depression. When a Child of God thinks of | himself in this way, he is belittling himself and seeing his brothers |
| Tx:8.53 | When a Child of God thinks of himself in this way, he is belittling | himself and seeing his brothers as similarly belittled. Since he can |
| Tx:8.53 | and seeing his brothers as similarly belittled. Since he can find | himself only in them, he has cut himself off from salvation. |
| Tx:8.53 | belittled. Since he can find himself only in them, he has cut | himself off from salvation. |
| Tx:8.57 | salvation, which must bring him his. Do not allow him to belittle | himself in your mind, but give him freedom from his belief in |
| Tx:8.57 | he is holy. As part of me, you are. To communicate with part of God | Himself is to reach beyond the Kingdom to its Creator through His |
| Tx:8.98 | and, believing that punishment is inevitable, attempts to teach | himself to like it. The truth is, very simply, that no one wants |
| Tx:8.99 | remember the Will of God, because ultimately everyone must recognize | himself. This recognition is the recognition that his will and God's |
| Tx:9.16 | Anyone who elects a totally insane guide must be totally insane | himself. |
| Tx:9.25 | gain some support from the situation. Seeking to get something for | himself, the unhealed healer does not know how to give and |
| Tx:9.25 | up to him to teach the patient what is real, but he does not know it | himself. What, then, should happen? When God said, “Let there be |
| Tx:9.26 | The therapist cannot do this for him, but he also cannot do this for | himself. |
| Tx:9.28 | healing be. He can point to darkness, but he cannot bring light of | himself, for light is not of him. Yet, being for him, it must also be |
| Tx:9.33 | real to you. God has but one Son, knowing them all as one. Only God | Himself is more than they, but they are not less than He is. Would |
| Tx:9.46 | God | Himself is incomplete without me. |
| Tx:9.47 | anything else. Return your part of Him, and He will give you all of | Himself in exchange for your return of what belongs to Him and |
| Tx:9.56 | Can your grandeur be arrogant when God | Himself witnesses to it? And what can be real that has no witnesses? |
| Tx:9.57 | for your return. God, through His Voice, reminds you of it, and God | Himself keeps your extensions safe within it. Yet you do not know |
| Tx:9.61 | God does not change His Mind about you, for He is not uncertain of | Himself. And what He knows can be known because He does not know only |
| Tx:9.61 | And what He knows can be known because He does not know only for | Himself. He created you for Himself, but He gave you the power to |
| Tx:9.61 | known because He does not know only for Himself. He created you for | Himself, but He gave you the power to create for your self so you |
| Tx:9.63 | God will never decide against you, or He would be deciding against | Himself. |
| Tx:9.74 | do love Him. Can you change your reality? No one can will to destroy | himself. When you think you are attacking yourself, it is a sure sign |
| Tx:9.77 | Your recognition of him as part of God teaches him the truth about | himself, which he is denying. Would you strengthen his denial of God |
| Tx:9.80 | anywhere in the Kingdom merely by denying them completely in | himself. I can heal you because I know you. I know your value for |
| Tx:9.88 | Everything else is merely lawless and therefore chaotic. Yet God | Himself has protected everything He created by His laws. Therefore, |
| Tx:9.92 | is the remaining call of creation. Put all your faith in it, and God | Himself will answer you. |
| Tx:9.100 | What is of God is His forever, and you are of God. Would He allow | Himself to suffer? And would He offer His Son anything that is not |
| Tx:9.102 | Son if he were not free. To interfere with you would be to attack | Himself, and God is not insane. When you denied Him, you were insane. |
| Tx:9.102 | of God. To know that is sanity. To deny it is insanity. God gave | Himself to you in your creation, and His gifts are eternal. Would you |
| Tx:9.103 | to Him, the Kingdom will be restored to His Son. His Son removed | himself from His gift by refusing to accept what had been created for |
| Tx:9.103 | gift by refusing to accept what had been created for him and what he | himself had created in the Name of his Father. Heaven waits for his |
| Tx:10.5 | For you dwell in the Mind of God with your brother, for God | Himself did not will to be alone. |
| Tx:10.6 | There are no beginnings and no endings in God, Whose universe is | Himself. Can you exclude yourself from the universe or from God, Who |
| Tx:10.9 | Because He did not will to be alone, He created a Son like | Himself. Do not deny Him His Son, for your unwillingness to accept |
| Tx:10.11 | His love be contained? God is your heritage because His one gift is | Himself. How can you give except like Him if you would know His gift |
| Tx:10.13 | die. Immortality is His Will for His Son and His Son's will for | himself. God's Son cannot will death for himself because His Father |
| Tx:10.13 | Son and His Son's will for himself. God's Son cannot will death for | himself because His Father is Life and His Son is like Him. Creation |
| Tx:10.16 | and being is only to unite your will with His, for He wills you | Himself. And you will yourself to Him because, in your perfect |
| Tx:10.18 | God's Son needs healing. He needs it because he does not understand | himself and therefore knows not what he does. Having forgotten his |
| Tx:10.21 | be wholly joined. To have Him is to be like Him, and He has given | Himself to you. You who have God must be as God, for His function |
| Tx:10.24 | Would God let this be real if He did not will to be alone | Himself? And if your will is His, it cannot be true of you because it |
| Tx:10.25 | Yet I can tell you and remind you often that what God wills for | Himself He wills for you, and what He wills for you is yours. |
| Tx:10.27 | God hides nothing from His Son, even though His Son would hide | himself. Yet the Son of God cannot hide his glory, for God wills him |
| Tx:10.29 | would know what belongs to you. Guard carefully His temple, for He | Himself dwells there and abides in peace. You cannot enter God's |
| Tx:10.37 | At God's altar Christ waits for the restoration of | Himself in you. God knows His Son as wholly blameless as Himself, and |
| Tx:10.37 | of Himself in you. God knows His Son as wholly blameless as | Himself, and He is approached through the appreciation of His Son. |
| Tx:10.57 | Christ they need demonstrate nothing, for Christ speaks to them of | Himself and of His Father. They are silent because Christ speaks to |
| Tx:10.61 | Son. For until Christ comes into His own, the Son of God will see | himself as fatherless. |
| Tx:10.63 | Son nor the power of the god he worships over him. For he places | himself at the altar of his god, whether it be the god he made or the |
| Tx:10.64 | then, is your own? The Father has given you all that is His, and He | Himself is yours with them. Guard them in their resurrection, for |
| Tx:10.65 | of equal value. God does not judge His blameless Son. Having given | Himself to him, how could it be otherwise? |
| Tx:10.77 | No one can withhold truth except from | himself. Yet God will not refuse the answer He gave you. Ask, then, |
| Tx:10.86 | Do not accept your brother's variable perception of | himself, for his split mind is yours, and you will not accept your |
| Tx:10.86 | and love together. Be not deceived in God's Son, for he is one with | himself and one with his Father. Love him who is beloved of His |
| Tx:10.87 | not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all offense of God's Son against | himself and perceive no one but through His guidance, for He would |
| Tx:10.90 | lean down to you and take the last step for you by raising you unto | Himself. |
| Tx:11.15 | it has power only because the Son of God gave power to it. He must | himself withdraw that power, remembering that all power is of God. |
| Tx:11.16 | for love and offer your brother what he believes he cannot offer | himself. Whatever the sickness, there is but one remedy. You will be |
| Tx:11.16 | is answered. Healing is the love of Christ for His Father and for | Himself. |
| Tx:11.29 | did is to exchange his self-love for self-hate, making him afraid of | himself. He does not realize this. Even if he is fully aware of |
| Tx:11.29 | with the world. He always perceives this world as outside | himself, for this is crucial to his adjustment. He does not realize |
| Tx:11.57 | in the real world, and by this he will learn to reinvest in | himself. For reality is one with the Father and the Son, and the Holy |
| Tx:11.60 | the Father and becomes one with it. Very gently does God shine upon | Himself, loving the extension of Himself which is His Son. The world |
| Tx:11.60 | it. Very gently does God shine upon Himself, loving the extension of | Himself which is His Son. The world has no purpose as it blends into |
| Tx:11.77 | can kill the Son of God? The Father has hidden His Son safely within | Himself and kept him far away from your destructive thoughts, but you |
| Tx:11.80 | love you can never forget Him, for no one can forget what God | Himself placed in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot lose |
| Tx:11.92 | The journey which the Son of God has set | himself is foolish indeed, but the journey on which his Father sets |
| Tx:11.92 | of release and joy. The Father is not cruel, and His Son cannot hurt | himself. The retaliation he fears and which he sees will never touch |
| Tx:12.18 | For you call for love to your Father as your Father calls you to | Himself. In that place which you have hidden, you will only to unite |
| Tx:12.40 | should offer Him. For every Son of God is given you to whom God gave | Himself. And it is God to Whom you must offer them to recognize His |
| Tx:12.43 | the vision that is given you, for through Christ's vision He beholds | Himself. And seeing what He is, He knows His Father. Beyond your |
| Tx:12.47 | He stands revealed in everyone you meet because you see Him through | Himself. To be born again is to let the past go and look without |
| Tx:12.57 | vision did not leave him. And so it is that he can call unto | himself the witnesses that teach him that he never slept. |
| Tx:12.65 | It is God's Will that nothing touch His Son except | Himself, and nothing else comes nigh unto him. He is as safe from |
| Tx:12.65 | and nothing else comes nigh unto him. He is as safe from pain as God | Himself, Who watches over him in everything. The world about him |
| Tx:12.65 | The world about him shines with love because God placed him in | Himself where pain is not and love surrounds him without end or flaw. |
| Tx:12.71 | worlds. However holy his perception may become, no world outside | himself holds his inheritance. Within himself he has no needs, for |
| Tx:12.71 | may become, no world outside himself holds his inheritance. Within | himself he has no needs, for light needs nothing but to shine in |
| Tx:13.10 | is witnessed to as one. God waits your witness to His Son and to | Himself. The miracles you do on earth are lifted up to Heaven and to |
| Tx:13.10 | For never would He leave His own beloved Son outside them and beyond | Himself. |
| Tx:13.15 | in his delusion? The idea that the guiltless Son of God can attack | himself and make himself guilty is insane. In any form, in anyone, |
| Tx:13.15 | The idea that the guiltless Son of God can attack himself and make | himself guilty is insane. In any form, in anyone, believe this not. |
| Tx:13.19 | your Father has in you. He does not value you as you do. He knows | Himself and knows the truth in you. He knows there is no difference, |
| Tx:13.28 | light. The altar to your Father is as pure as He Who raised it to | Himself. Nothing can keep from you what Christ would have you see. |
| Tx:13.29 | and see the light of love shining as steadily and as surely as God | Himself has always loved His Son. And as His son loves Him. There is |
| Tx:13.30 | no idea what love is like. No one who condemns a brother can see | himself as guiltless in the peace of God. If he is guiltless and in |
| Tx:13.30 | in peace and sees it not, he is delusional and has not looked upon | himself. To him I say, |
| Tx:13.35 | the perceived and harsh intrusion of guilt on peace. Yet no one sees | himself in conflict and ravaged by a cruel war unless he believes |
| Tx:13.35 | between forces that are real and unreal powers, he could look upon | himself and see his freedom. No one finds himself ravaged and torn in |
| Tx:13.35 | powers, he could look upon himself and see his freedom. No one finds | himself ravaged and torn in endless battles which he himself |
| Tx:13.35 | No one finds himself ravaged and torn in endless battles which he | himself perceives as wholly without meaning. |
| Tx:13.39 | all doubt and every trace of guilt that His dear Son has laid upon | himself. It is impossible that this mission fail. Nothing can prevent |
| Tx:13.42 | The Communication Link which God | Himself placed within you, joining your minds with His, cannot be |
| Tx:13.44 | Can God's Son lose | himself in dreams when God has placed within him the glad call to |
| Tx:13.44 | within him the glad call to waken and be glad? He cannot separate | himself from what is in him. His sleep will not withstand the call to |
| Tx:13.70 | No penalty is ever asked of God's Son except by | himself and of himself. Every chance given him to heal is another |
| Tx:13.70 | No penalty is ever asked of God's Son except by himself and of | himself. Every chance given him to heal is another opportunity to |
| Tx:13.70 | darkness with light and fear with love. If he refuses it, he binds | himself to darkness because he did not choose to free his brother and |
| Tx:13.72 | else can His Son see or choose to look upon without imposing on | himself the penalty of guilt in place of all the happy teaching the |
| Tx:13.87 | You who belong to the First Cause, created by Him like unto | Himself and part of Him, are more than merely guiltless. The state of |
| Tx:13.88 | undone for you and stand in grace before your Father, He will give | Himself to you as He has always done. Giving Himself is all He knows, |
| Tx:13.88 | Father, He will give Himself to you as He has always done. Giving | Himself is all He knows, and so it is all knowledge. For what He |
| Tx:13.90 | God is right and you are wrong about yourself. He created you out of | Himself but still within Him. He knows what you are. Remember that |
| Tx:13.90 | Son. For this small gift of appreciation for His Love, God will | Himself exchange your gift for His. |
| Tx:14.1 | knowledge is swept away from recognition in the very mind where God | Himself has placed it. If you would but listen and learn how |
| Tx:14.4 | of understanding one another. Each perceives the other as like | himself, making them unable to communicate because each sees the |
| Tx:14.4 | to communicate because each sees the other unlike the way he sees | himself. God can communicate only to the Holy Spirit in your mind |
| Tx:14.8 | away the heavy veils of guilt within which the Son of God has hidden | himself from his own sight. We are all joined in the Atonement here, |
| Tx:14.10 | no fear that teaching this can fail to overcome. The power of God | Himself supports this teaching and guarantees its limitless results. |
| Tx:14.23 | can fail to come where God has called him if he close not the door | himself upon his Father's welcome. |
| Tx:14.34 | Spirit and in you. All interference in the communication that God | Himself wills with His Son is quite impossible here. Unbroken and |
| Tx:14.37 | The link with which the Father joins | Himself to those He gives the power to create like Him can never be |
| Tx:14.37 | be accepted by the Son, for whom it was intended. To whom God gives | Himself, He is given. Your little gifts will vanish on the altar |
| Tx:14.42 | of hidden darkness you have drawn upon it. God will shine upon it of | Himself. Only the clear reflection of Himself can be perceived upon |
| Tx:14.42 | it. God will shine upon it of Himself. Only the clear reflection of | Himself can be perceived upon it. Reflections are seen in light. In |
| Tx:14.57 | wherever it is not recognized, you will recognize it. And God | Himself, Who wills to be with His Son forever, will bless each |
| Tx:14.67 | so little. Yet He cannot compel His Son to turn to Him and remain | Himself. It is impossible that God lose His Identity, for if He did, |
| Tx:14.67 | if He did, you would lose yours. And being yours, He cannot change | Himself, for your identity is changeless. The miracle acknowledges |
| Tx:14.67 | by seeing His Son as he always was and not as he would make | himself. The miracle brings the effects which only guiltlessness can |
| Tx:14.73 | anything. It is only this that you need do. The Holy Spirit will, of | Himself, fill every mind that so makes room for Him. |
| Tx:15.7 | but always as a foretaste of the future. For no one who considers | himself as deserving hell can believe that punishment will end in |
| Tx:15.18 | The blessed instant reaches out to encompass time, as God extends | Himself to encompass you. You who have spent days, hours, and even |
| Tx:15.27 | When God gave | Himself to you in your creation, He established you as host to Him |
| Tx:15.29 | the awareness of magnitude to the host whom God appointed for | Himself. It is beyond all your littleness to give the gift of God, |
| Tx:15.29 | to give the gift of God, but not beyond you. For God would give | Himself through you. He reaches from you to everyone and beyond |
| Tx:15.38 | and immaculate is the holy altar on which your Father has placed | Himself? This you will recognize in the holy instant in which you |
| Tx:15.62 | No one who has not yet experienced the lifting of the veil and felt | himself drawn irresistibly into the light behind it can have faith in |
| Tx:15.69 | savagery belongs not around the chosen host of God, who cannot make | himself host to the ego. In the name of his release, and in the name |
| Tx:15.71 | in love with sacrifice. And for this sacrifice, which he demanded of | himself, he demands the other accept the guilt and sacrifice himself |
| Tx:15.71 | of himself, he demands the other accept the guilt and sacrifice | himself as well. Forgiveness becomes impossible, for the ego believes |
| Tx:15.82 | ensure your perfect creation. This was His gift, for as He withheld | Himself not from you, He withheld not His creation. Nothing that ever |
| Tx:15.85 | you want, it is translated into knowledge by the part which God | Himself plays in the Atonement, for it is the only step in it He |
| Tx:15.104 | to cast it out though it was part of you. Who can perceive part of | himself as loathsome and live within himself in peace? And who can |
| Tx:15.104 | you. Who can perceive part of himself as loathsome and live within | himself in peace? And who can try to resolve the perceived conflict |
| Tx:15.104 | Heaven out and giving it the attributes of hell without experiencing | himself as incomplete and lonely? |
| Tx:15.105 | And who can suffer sacrifice and loss without attempting to restore | himself? Yet how could you accomplish this yourselves when the basis |
| Tx:15.109 | where He would be. And by your welcome does He welcome you into | Himself, for what is contained in you who welcome Him is returned to |
| Tx:17.1 | He need not be forgiven, but awakened. In his dreams he has betrayed | himself, his brothers, and his God. Yet what is done in dreams has |
| Tx:17.9 | forgiveness on it. And with this final blessing of God's Son upon | himself, the real perception, born of the new perspective he has |
| Tx:17.22 | the Creator of the one relationship has left no part of it without | Himself. |
| Tx:17.52 | with you. Think not your choice will leave you comfortless, for God | Himself has blessed your holy relationship. Join in His blessing, and |
| Tx:18.11 | beholds it and rejoices that you have let it come to you. [And God | Himself is glad that your relationship is as it was created.] The |
| Tx:18.24 | insanity. What you forgot was simply that God cannot destroy | Himself. The light is in you. Darkness can cover it but cannot put it |
| Tx:18.27 | only in frightening yourselves. The gift is given forever, for God | Himself received it. You cannot take it back. You have accepted God. |
| Tx:18.31 | with you to give the little spark of your desire the power of God | Himself, can you remain in darkness? You are coming home together |
| Tx:18.49 | only this, and He did not depart from it nor leave it separate from | Himself. The Kingdom of Heaven is the dwelling-place of the Son of |
| Tx:18.50 | What could God give but knowledge of | Himself? What else is there to give? The belief that you could give |
| Tx:18.57 | barrier between God and His Son, nor can His Son be separated from | himself except in illusions. This is not his reality, though he |
| Tx:18.57 | God would have had to create differently and to have separated | Himself from His Son to make this possible. He would have had to |
| Tx:18.57 | cannot put a barrier around yourself because God placed none between | Himself and you. |
| Tx:18.58 | experienced what he would call a sense of being transported beyond | himself. This feeling of liberation far exceeds the dream of freedom |
| Tx:18.63 | means you still find sin attractive. No one accepts Atonement for | himself who still accepts sin as his goal. You have thus not met your |
| Tx:18.94 | the messenger of love and not its Source. Here you are led that God | Himself can take the final step unhindered, for here does nothing |
| Tx:19.12 | of God is seen already forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid upon | himself. Faith sees him only now because it looks not to the past to |
| Tx:19.14 | In the holy instant, you stand before the altar God has raised unto | Himself and both of you. Lay faithlessness aside and come to it |
| Tx:19.18 | is guilty and has thus succeeded in losing his innocence and making | himself what God created not. Thus is creation seen as not eternal, |
| Tx:19.18 | illusion” underlying all the ego's grandiosity. For by it, God | Himself is changed and rendered incomplete. |
| Tx:19.19 | The Son of God can be mistaken; he can deceive | himself; he can even turn the power of his mind against himself. But |
| Tx:19.19 | can deceive himself; he can even turn the power of his mind against | himself. But he cannot sin. There is nothing he can do that would |
| Tx:19.23 | sin is real—the natural expression of what the Son of God has made | himself to be and what he is. To the ego, this is no mistake. For |
| Tx:19.31 | are not. If creation is extension, the Creator must have extended | Himself, and it is impossible that what is part of Him is totally |
| Tx:19.31 | is totally unlike the rest. If sin is real, God must be at war with | Himself. He must be split and torn between good and evil—partly |
| Tx:19.32 | of sin. Sin is perceived as mightier than God, before which God | Himself must bow and offer His creation to its conqueror. Is this |
| Tx:19.39 | What need is there for seeing then? When God has taken the last step | Himself, the Holy Spirit will gather all your thanks and gratitude |
| Tx:19.41 | asked to let it go for yourselves alone. Christ asks it of you for | Himself. He would bring peace to everyone, and how can He do this |
| Tx:19.63 | is your Father's Son. He has not lost communion with Him nor with | himself. When you agreed to join each other, you acknowledged this is |
| Tx:19.73 | messages of hatred and attack if he but understood he sends them to | himself? Who would accuse, make guilty, and condemn himself? |
| Tx:19.73 | he sends them to himself? Who would accuse, make guilty, and condemn | himself? |
| Tx:19.75 | guilt is the escape from pain. Not one but must regard the body as | himself, without which he would die, and yet within which is his |
| Tx:19.80 | death, in opposition to life and innocence and to the Will of God | Himself. Where can such opposition lie but in the sick minds of the |
| Tx:19.81 | by its maker, and lamented by every mourner who looks upon it as | himself. You who believe you have condemned the Son of God to this |
| Tx:19.85 | lay the Son of God, slain by its orders, proof in his decay that God | Himself is powerless before the ego's might, unable to protect the |
| Tx:19.86 | nursed by angels, cherished by the Holy Spirit, and protected by God | Himself. It needs not your protection; it is yours. For it is |
| Tx:19.91 | at last. For this dark veil, which seems to make the face of Christ | Himself like to a leper's and the bright rays of His Father's love |
| Tx:19.102 | power to forgive your sins, as you for him. Neither can give it to | himself alone. And yet your savior stands beside each one. Let him be |
| Tx:19.107 | as I look on you, and overlook the sins he thinks he sees within | himself. Offer each other freedom and complete release from sin here |
| Tx:20.1 | a risen Christ becomes the symbol of the Son of God's forgiveness of | himself; the sign he looks upon himself as healed and whole. |
| Tx:20.1 | of the Son of God's forgiveness of himself; the sign he looks upon | himself as healed and whole. |
| Tx:20.5 | acceptance and delight acknowledges the lack of value he places on | himself. |
| Tx:20.7 | and the giver. No one but sees in his chosen home an altar to | himself. No one but seeks to draw to it the worshipers of what he |
| Tx:20.11 | has become the greatest power for the undoing of illusion that God | Himself could give. For what God gave the Holy Spirit, you have |
| Tx:20.26 | my will for both of you and for each of you for one another and for | himself. Here there is only holiness and joining without limit. For |
| Tx:20.32 | given, whose special function here is to release him and so to free | himself. In the world of separation, each is appointed separately, |
| Tx:20.37 | In this world, God's Son comes closest to | himself in a holy relationship. There he begins to find the certainty |
| Tx:20.44 | should offer it to him and know it rests in safety? He looks upon | himself not as his Father knows him. And yet it is impossible the |
| Tx:20.56 | to choose to spend this instant paying tribute to the body or let | himself be given freedom from it. Here he can accept the holy |
| Tx:21.17 | is the determiner of every situation in which he seems to find | himself by chance or accident. No accident nor chance is possible |
| Tx:21.21 | that he has the power to make God powerless and so to take it for | himself and leave himself without what God has willed for him. This |
| Tx:21.21 | power to make God powerless and so to take it for himself and leave | himself without what God has willed for him. This is the mad idea you |
| Tx:21.27 | are like his Father's. Yet in creating them, the Son does not delude | himself that he is independent of his Source. His union with It is |
| Tx:21.33 | the Son of God believe that he is powerless. Thus is he faithless to | himself, but strong in faith in his illusions about himself. For |
| Tx:21.33 | he faithless to himself, but strong in faith in his illusions about | himself. For faith, perception, and belief you made as means for |
| Tx:21.60 | as sinful and still perceive the other innocent. Who looks upon | himself as guilty and sees a sinless world? And who can see a sinful |
| Tx:21.60 | sees a sinless world? And who can see a sinful world and look upon | himself apart from it? Sin would maintain you must be separate. But |
| Tx:21.61 | No one can think but for | himself, as God thinks not without His Son. Only were both in bodies |
| Tx:21.65 | because he must be one with you. You are responsible for how he sees | himself. And reason tells you it is given you to change his whole |
| Tx:21.69 | reality. It but attests to it. Where could his freedom lie but in | himself if he be free already? And who could bind him but himself if |
| Tx:21.69 | lie but in himself if he be free already? And who could bind him but | himself if he deny his freedom? God is not mocked; no more His Son |
| Tx:21.69 | there is he held a prisoner, waiting in chains his pardon on | himself to set him free. |
| Tx:21.71 | a sorry army, each one as likely to attack his brother or turn upon | himself as to remember they thought they had a common cause. |
| Tx:21.74 | his helplessness and let sin tell him that his enemy must be | himself. But let him only ask himself these questions, which he must |
| Tx:21.74 | sin tell him that his enemy must be himself. But let him only ask | himself these questions, which he must decide to have it done for him: |
| Tx:21.84 | the Son of God's desire remains the proof that he is wrong who sees | himself as helpless. Desire what you will, and you will look on it |
| Tx:21.88 | because desire is a request, an asking for, and made by one whom God | Himself will never fail to answer. God has already given him all that |
| Tx:22.1 | perception, seen in the other yet believed by each to be within | himself. And each one seems to make a different error, and one the |
| Tx:22.2 | the other has what he has not. They come together, each to complete | himself and rob the other. They stay until they think there's nothing |
| Tx:22.3 | his completion, he would extend it by joining with another, whole as | himself. He sees no difference between these selves, for differences |
| Tx:22.15 | Christ comes to what is like | Himself; the same, not different. For He is always drawn unto |
| Tx:22.15 | like Himself; the same, not different. For He is always drawn unto | Himself. What is as like Him as a holy relationship? And what draws |
| Tx:22.24 | it were possible the Son of God could leave his Father's Mind, make | himself different, and oppose His Will, would it be possible that the |
| Tx:22.27 | that extends forever is your holy relationship, beloved of God | Himself. How still it rests, in time and yet beyond, immortal yet on |
| Tx:22.37 | his sins. And so it must become impossible for each to see | himself as causing sin by his desire to have sin real. Yet reason |
| Tx:22.40 | it nor you. You will become His messengers, returning Him unto | Himself. |
| Tx:22.44 | it to offer this miracle to everyone! No one who has received it for | himself could find it difficult. For by receiving it, he learned it |
| Tx:22.56 | bring you do not recognize, and yet you will remember. Who can deny | himself the vision that he brings to others? And who would fail to |
| Tx:22.56 | who would fail to recognize a gift he let be laid in Heaven through | himself? The gentle service that you give the Holy Spirit is service |
| Tx:23.10 | before your sight into the giver of your peace. Your “enemy” was God | Himself, to Whom all conflict, triumph, and attack of any kind are |
| Tx:23.11 | yourself was undertaken to teach the Son of God that he is not | himself and not his Father's Son. For this, the memory of his Father |
| Tx:23.15 | who are beloved of Him are no illusions, being as true and holy as | Himself. |
| Tx:23.20 | are more valuable and therefore true. Each one establishes this for | himself and makes it true by his attack on what another values. And |
| Tx:23.22 | What he has done is thus interpreted as an irrevocable sentence upon | himself, which God Himself is powerless to overcome. Sin cannot be |
| Tx:23.22 | thus interpreted as an irrevocable sentence upon himself, which God | Himself is powerless to overcome. Sin cannot be remitted, being the |
| Tx:23.23 | as sensible, made real by what the Son of God has done both to | himself and his Creator. The arrogance on which the laws of chaos |
| Tx:23.26 | help that can succeed. Only destruction can be the outcome. And God | Himself seems to be siding with it to overcome His Son. Think not the |
| Tx:23.35 | harm him and be saved. Who can find safety from attack by turning on | himself? How can it matter what the form this madness takes? It is a |
| Tx:23.52 | on high but quickly choose a miracle instead of murder. And God | Himself and all the lights of Heaven will gently lean to you and hold |
| Tx:24.1 | the universe secure? God does not wait upon illusions to let Him be | Himself. No more His Son. They are. And what illusion that idly seems |
| Tx:24.8 | from one another. What you keep is lost to you. God gave you both | Himself, and to remember this is now the only purpose that you share. |
| Tx:24.10 | For each demands the other bow to it against his will. And God | Himself must honor it or suffer vengeance. Every twinge of malice or |
| Tx:24.14 | Him. His “special” sons are many, never one, each one in exile from | himself and Him of Whom they are a part. Nor do they love the Oneness |
| Tx:24.15 | your ears to hear its soundless voice, and yet the Call of God | Himself is soundless to you. |
| Tx:24.17 | all his specialness and all the sins he held in its defense against | himself will vanish as his mind accepts the truth about himself as it |
| Tx:24.17 | against himself will vanish as his mind accepts the truth about | himself as it returns to take their place. This is the only “cost” of |
| Tx:24.21 | savior from your specialness. He is in need of your acceptance of | himself as part of you, as you for his. You are alike to God as God |
| Tx:24.21 | as part of you, as you for his. You are alike to God as God is to | Himself. He is not special, for He would not keep one part of what He |
| Tx:24.21 | He is not special, for He would not keep one part of what He is unto | Himself, not given to His Son but kept for Him alone. And it is this |
| Tx:24.22 | Give him but what he has, remembering God gave | Himself to both of you in equal love that both might share the |
| Tx:24.22 | does him. God's love gave you to him and him to you because He gave | Himself. What is the same as God is one with Him. And only |
| Tx:24.26 | but partly to forgive. No one who clings to one illusion can see | himself as sinless, for he holds one error to himself as lovely |
| Tx:24.26 | one illusion can see himself as sinless, for he holds one error to | himself as lovely still. And so he calls it “unforgivable” and makes |
| Tx:24.26 | then give his forgiveness wholly, when he would not receive it for | himself? For it is sure he would receive it wholly the instant that |
| Tx:24.26 | gave it so. And thus his secret guilt would disappear, forgiven by | himself. |
| Tx:24.30 | them and left behind. Salvation challenges not even death. And God | Himself, Who knows that death is not your will, must say, “Thy will |
| Tx:24.33 | be free. Such is the Will of God and of His Son. Would God condemn | Himself to hell and to damnation? And do you will that this be done |
| Tx:24.33 | out for your forgiveness. God asks your mercy on His Son and on | Himself. Deny them not. They ask of you but that your will be done. |
| Tx:24.40 | in you is very still. He looks on what He loves and knows it as | Himself. And thus does He rejoice at what He sees because He knows |
| Tx:24.45 | the fear you thought you saw within yourself. His holiness shows you | Himself in him whose hand you hold and whom you lead to Him. And what |
| Tx:24.46 | your brother's in your own. Christ's hand holds all His brothers in | Himself. He gives them vision for their sightless eyes and sings to |
| Tx:24.47 | in a war with love, consider this: the holy Lord of Heaven has | Himself come down to you to offer you your own completion. What is |
| Tx:24.48 | walks beside you and before, leading the way that He must go to find | Himself complete. His quietness becomes your certainty. And where is |
| Tx:24.52 | not there and all belief God's Son can suffer pain because he sees | himself as he is not. |
| Tx:24.55 | a body? Where is your peace but in his holiness? And where is God | Himself but in that part of Him He set forever in your brother's |
| Tx:24.56 | benediction unto you. His errors cannot withhold God's blessing from | himself nor you who see him truly. His mistakes can cause delay, |
| Tx:24.57 | to you is done and he is risen from the past. He who condemned | himself, and you as well, is given you to save from condemnation |
| Tx:24.68 | the Father must have a Son. Yet must this Son have been created like | Himself. A perfect being, all-encompassing and all-encompassed, |
| Tx:25.4 | brother, as he to you. Here is the meeting of the holy Christ unto | Himself; nor are any differences perceived to stand between the |
| Tx:25.5 | stand condemned. Set in his holiness, the Christ in him proclaims | himself as you. |
| Tx:25.7 | His. His Life is manifest in you who are His Son. Each aspect of | Himself is framed in holiness and perfect purity, in love celestial |
| Tx:25.16 | no frame, for what He has created He supports and frames within | Himself. His masterpiece He offers you to see. And would you rather |
| Tx:25.20 | happiness complete and theirs along with His. The gratitude of God | Himself is freely offered to everyone who shares His purpose. It is |
| Tx:25.22 | You are the same, as God | Himself is one and not divided in His Will. And you must have one |
| Tx:25.24 | His Son believes it is, and from His Son's belief He could not let | Himself be separate entirely. He could not enter His Son's insanity |
| Tx:25.28 | help is there, awaiting but his choice. And when he chooses to avail | himself of what is given him, then will he see each situation that he |
| Tx:25.31 | think he can be hurt. What could this be except a misperception of | himself? Is this a sin or a mistake, forgivable or not? Does he need |
| Tx:25.40 | it will give to each an equal strength to save the other and save | himself along with him. Forgiven by you, your savior offers you |
| Tx:25.42 | Against the hatred that the Son of God may cherish toward | himself is God believed to be without the power to save what He |
| Tx:25.42 | save what He created from the pain of hell. But in the love he shows | himself is God made free to let His Will be done. In each of you, you |
| Tx:25.43 | evil, nothing in the world to fear, and no one who is different from | himself. And as he loves them, so he looks upon himself with love and |
| Tx:25.43 | is different from himself. And as he loves them, so he looks upon | himself with love and gentleness. He would no more condemn himself |
| Tx:25.43 | upon himself with love and gentleness. He would no more condemn | himself for his mistakes than damn another. He is not an arbiter of |
| Tx:25.43 | vengeance nor a punisher of sin. The kindness of his sight rests on | himself with all the tenderness it offers others. For he would only |
| Tx:25.46 | his special function and fulfills the part assigned to him to make | himself complete within a world where incompletion rules. |
| Tx:25.47 | by this act of special faithfulness to one perceived as other than | himself, he learns the gift was given to himself, and so they must be |
| Tx:25.47 | one perceived as other than himself, he learns the gift was given to | himself, and so they must be one. Forgiveness is the only function |
| Tx:25.48 | part in time, for so he chose, and choosing it, he made it for | himself. His wish was not denied but changed in form to let it serve |
| Tx:25.48 | was not denied but changed in form to let it serve his brother and | himself and thus become a means to save instead of lose. Salvation is |
| Tx:25.48 | means for either, as he always did. The specialness he chose to hurt | himself did God appoint to be the means for his salvation from the |
| Tx:25.49 | choice the Holy Spirit cannot employ on his behalf and not against | himself. Only in darkness does your specialness appear to be attack. |
| Tx:25.50 | foundation sure as love, dependable as Heaven, and as strong as God | Himself. The world is safe from love to everyone who thinks sin |
| Tx:25.64 | saved. You are not called upon to do what one divided still against | himself would find impossible. Have little faith that wisdom could be |
| Tx:25.72 | at God's right hand and give the Son of God the power to forgive | himself of sin. |
| Tx:26.4 | greater sacrifice could be demanded than that God's Son perceive | himself without his Father? And his Father be without His Son? Yet |
| Tx:26.9 | Condemn him not by seeing him within the rotting prison where he sees | himself. It is your special function to ensure the door be opened |
| Tx:26.9 | to release the holy Son of God from the imprisonment he made to keep | himself from justice? Could your function be a task apart and |
| Tx:26.25 | Forgiveness always rests upon the one who offers it until he sees | himself as needing it no more. And thus is he returned to his real |
| Tx:26.28 | miracles to lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God | Himself comes to receive each gift that brings him nearer to his |
| Tx:26.36 | no longer is. And who can stand upon a distant shore and dream | himself across an ocean to a place and time that have long since gone |
| Tx:26.36 | he is elsewhere and in another time. In the extreme, he can delude | himself that this is true and pass from mere imagining into belief |
| Tx:26.52 | becomes impatient, splits the world apart, and relegates attack unto | Himself. Thus has He lost His Mind, proclaiming sin has taken His |
| Tx:26.61 | in any form is possible, then is God's Son made incomplete and not | himself. [Nor will he know himself nor recognize his will.] He has |
| Tx:26.61 | then is God's Son made incomplete and not himself. [Nor will he know | himself nor recognize his will.] He has forsworn his Father and |
| Tx:26.61 | know himself nor recognize his will.] He has forsworn his Father and | himself and made them both his enemies in hate. |
| Tx:26.67 | gift of truth but let to be itself—the Son of God allowed to be | himself and all creation freed to call upon the Name of God as one. |
| Tx:26.87 | than that he be deprived of what he is, denied the right to be | himself, and asked to sacrifice his Father's love and yours as not |
| Tx:27.4 | in its wake. The witness is believed because he points beyond | himself to what he represents. A sick and suffering you but |
| Tx:27.15 | retains no trace of condemnation that he still would hold against | himself or any living thing. |
| Tx:27.34 | not canceled out. And thus is God left free to take the final step | Himself. [For this you need no pictures and no learning aids.] And |
| Tx:27.44 | and received. No one can ask another to be healed. But he can let | himself be healed and thus offer the other what he has received. Who |
| Tx:27.44 | upon another what he does not have? And who can share what he denies | himself? The Holy Spirit speaks to you. He does not speak to someone |
| Tx:27.56 | otherwise he lies, if you should call him by the holy Name of God | Himself. |
| Tx:27.57 | what you believe it holds within. Nor could it tell a part of God | Himself what it should feel and what its function is. Yet must He |
| Tx:27.60 | powerless. The purpose of a miracle is to accomplish this. And God | Himself has guaranteed the strength of miracles for what they witness |
| Tx:27.62 | the dreamer is unconscious of what brought on the attack against | himself, he sees himself attacked unjustly and by something not |
| Tx:27.62 | unconscious of what brought on the attack against himself, he sees | himself attacked unjustly and by something not himself. He is the |
| Tx:27.62 | himself, he sees himself attacked unjustly and by something not | himself. He is the victim of this “something else,” a thing outside |
| Tx:27.62 | himself. He is the victim of this “something else,” a thing outside | himself for which he has no reason to be held responsible. He must be |
| Tx:27.62 | what he does, but what is done to him. Yet is his own attack upon | himself apparent still, for it is he who bears the suffering. And he |
| Tx:27.62 | suffering. And he cannot escape because its source is seen outside | himself. |
| Tx:27.65 | Otherwise is the avenger's knife in his own hand and pointed to | himself. And he must see it in another's hand if he would be a victim |
| Tx:27.65 | he suffers from the wounds a knife he does not hold has made upon | himself. This is the purpose of the world he sees. And looked at |
| Tx:27.68 | is how all illusions come about. The one who makes them does not see | himself as making them, and their reality does not depend on him. |
| Tx:27.73 | that he has lost his innocence, denied his Father, and made war upon | himself. So fearful is the dream, so seeming real, he could not waken |
| Tx:27.75 | you in holy innocence. And from this dream, the Lord of Heaven will | Himself awaken His beloved Son. Dream of your brother's kindnesses |
| Tx:27.81 | No one asleep and dreaming in the world remembers his attack upon | himself. No one believes there really was a time when he knew nothing |
| Tx:27.82 | gave away unto the dreamer who perceives the dream as separate from | himself and done to him. Into eternity, where all is one, there crept |
| Tx:28.4 | The Holy Spirit can indeed make use of memory, for God | Himself is there. Yet this is not a memory of past events, but only |
| Tx:28.12 | For in that instant does the Son of God do nothing that would make | himself afraid. |
| Tx:28.15 | an instant will suffice to reach beyond? For God has closed it with | Himself. His memory has not gone by and left a stranded Son forever |
| Tx:28.18 | Always in sickness does the Son of God attempt to make | himself his cause and not allow himself to be his Father's Son. For |
| Tx:28.18 | does the Son of God attempt to make himself his cause and not allow | himself to be his Father's Son. For this impossible desire, he does |
| Tx:28.21 | dream is not awake but does not know he sleeps. He sees illusions of | himself as sick or well, depressed or happy, but without a stable |
| Tx:28.22 | he was author of the dream, and not a figure in the dream. He gives | himself the consequences which he dreams he gave his brother. And it |
| Tx:28.23 | since He was no longer their Creator. In the dream, the dreamer made | himself, but what he made has turned against him, taking on the role |
| Tx:28.33 | room for Him Who wills to come and bridge His Son's returning to | Himself. |
| Tx:28.37 | you share not his wish to separate and let him turn illusions on | himself. Nor do you wish that they be turned instead on you. Thus |
| Tx:28.39 | you, your brother thinks he is a dream. Share not in his illusion of | himself, for your identity depends on his reality. Think rather of |
| Tx:28.44 | instead of just a little broken bit which he insisted was | himself. And when he sees this picture, he will recognize himself. If |
| Tx:28.44 | was himself. And when he sees this picture, he will recognize | himself. If you share not your brother's evil dream, this is the |
| Tx:28.44 | the Father will receive His Son, because His Son was gracious to | himself. |
| Tx:28.57 | you perceive yourself attacked. No one can suffer if he does not see | himself attacked and losing by attack. Unstated and unheard in |
| Tx:28.59 | And what he substitutes is not his will, who has made promise of | himself to God. |
| Tx:28.60 | either, who have promised to be one. God's promise is a promise to | Himself, and there is no one who could be untrue to what He wills as |
| Tx:28.60 | as part of what He is. The promise that there is no gap between | Himself and what He is cannot be false. What will can come between |
| Tx:28.61 | with all your brothers is a part of you because it is a part of God | Himself. Are you not sick if you deny yourself your wholeness and |
| Tx:28.66 | of safety, resting on God's promise that His Son is safe forever in | Himself. What gap can interpose itself between the safety of this |
| Tx:29.21 | Think you the Father lost | Himself when He created you? Was He made weak because He shared His |
| Tx:29.22 | of light where God abides within the darkness, you will see that God | Himself is where his body is. Before this light the body disappears, |
| Tx:29.24 | that have hidden him and shines on you in gratitude and love. He is | himself, but not himself alone. And as his Father lost not part of |
| Tx:29.24 | him and shines on you in gratitude and love. He is himself, but not | himself alone. And as his Father lost not part of Him in your |
| Tx:29.35 | him, created by his Father as His home? If God esteems him worthy of | Himself, would you attack him with the hands of hate? Who would lay |
| Tx:29.44 | lingering illusion, or some dream that there is something outside of | himself that will bring happiness and peace to him. If everything is |
| Tx:29.44 | cannot be so. And therefore by his coming, he denies the truth about | himself and seeks for something more than everything, as if a part of |
| Tx:29.44 | body—that it seek for what he lacks and give him what would make | himself complete. And thus he wanders aimlessly about in search of |
| Tx:29.45 | idol that he seeks is but his death. Its form appears to be outside | himself. Yet does he seek to kill God's Son within and prove that he |
| Tx:29.53 | which you do not have. No one believes in idols who has not enslaved | himself to littleness and loss. And thus must seek beyond his little |
| Tx:29.60 | thing as well. And thus is every living thing a part of you, as of | Himself. No idol can establish you as more than God. But you will |
| Tx:29.61 | The slave of idols is a willing slave. For willing he must be to let | himself bow down in worship to what has no life and seek for power in |
| Tx:29.61 | happened to the holy Son of God that this could be his wish—to let | himself fall lower than the stones upon the ground and look to idols |
| Tx:29.61 | A dream of judgment came into the mind that God created perfect as | Himself. And in that dream was Heaven changed to hell, and God made |
| Tx:29.62 | have need of idols which will hold the judgment off from resting on | himself. Nor can he know the Self he has condemned. Judge not, |
| Tx:29.63 | justice that who judges him will not escape the penalty he laid upon | himself within the dream he made. God knows of justice, not of |
| Tx:29.65 | Yet do they keep his thoughts alive and real but seen outside | himself, where they can turn against him for his treachery to them. |
| Tx:29.65 | And so he makes of anything a toy to make his world remain outside | himself, and play that he is but a part of it. |
| Tx:30.34 | not free. And would God leave His Son without what he has chosen for | himself? God but ensured that you would never lose your will when He |
| Tx:30.35 | not your will that it be bound. What lies in you has joined with God | Himself in all creation's birth. Remember He Who has created you and |
| Tx:30.36 | merely waits your blessing to be free? If you be prisoner, then God | Himself could not be free. For what is done to him whom God so loves |
| Tx:30.36 | be free. For what is done to him whom God so loves is done to God | Himself. Think not He wills to bind you, Who has made you co-creator |
| Tx:30.42 | him, he would not be as God created him. What idol can he need to be | himself? For can he give a part of him away? What is not whole cannot |
| Tx:30.48 | still; the sky has never changed. But you, the holy Son of God | Himself, are unaware of your reality. |
| Tx:30.56 | could God's plan for his salvation be, except a means to give him to | Himself? |
| Tx:30.59 | beyond forgiveness, and he but remains until it is made perfect in | himself. He has no wish for anything but this. And fear has dropped |
| Tx:30.59 | And fear has dropped away because he is united in his purpose with | himself. There is a hope of happiness in him so sure and constant he |
| Tx:30.60 | is forgiveness, not idolatry. And so is Heaven's Son prepared to be | himself, and to remember that the Son of God knows everything his |
| Tx:30.73 | God the sure result of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who sees | himself as guilty can avoid the fear of God. But he is saved from |
| Tx:31.4 | powerful enough to render God forgotten and His Son an alien to | himself, in exile from the home where God Himself established him. |
| Tx:31.4 | and His Son an alien to himself, in exile from the home where God | Himself established him. You who have taught yourselves the Son of |
| Tx:31.13 | does not respond. Who could be hurt in such a war unless he hurts | himself? He has no enemy in truth. And can he be assailed by dreams? |
| Tx:31.46 | harshly with defenseless innocence? No one who makes a picture of | himself omits this face, for he has need of it. The other side he |
| Tx:31.56 | And everyone believes that he must find the answer to the riddle of | himself. Salvation can be seen as nothing more than the escape from |
| Tx:31.65 | you look upon nor what you choose to feel or think or wish. For God | Himself has said, “Your will be done.” And it is done to you |
| Tx:31.68 | the “good” are innocent. And no one here but holds a concept of | himself in which he counts the “good” to pardon him the “bad.” Nor |
| Tx:31.75 | this he learns when first he looks upon one brother as he looks upon | himself and sees the mirror of himself in him. Thus is the concept of |
| Tx:31.75 | upon one brother as he looks upon himself and sees the mirror of | himself in him. Thus is the concept of himself laid by, for nothing |
| Tx:31.75 | and sees the mirror of himself in him. Thus is the concept of | himself laid by, for nothing stands between his sight and what he |
| Tx:31.77 | torment? Who has learned to see his brother not as this has saved | himself, and thus is he a savior to the rest. To everyone has God |
| Tx:31.78 | upon and sees his own salvation everywhere. He holds no concept of | himself between his calm and open eyes and what he sees. He brings |
| Tx:31.88 | The images you make can not prevail against what God | Himself would have you be. Be never fearful of temptation then, but |
| W1:35.1 | for anyone who thinks he is in this world to believe this of | himself. Yet the reason he thinks he is in this world is because he |
| W1:38.5 | cannot do. In the situation involving ______ in which _____ sees | himself, there is nothing my holiness cannot do. |
| W1:43.2 | means by which the Son of God forgives his brother and thus forgives | himself. |
| W1:58.4 | about me. In the presence of my holiness, which I share with God | Himself, all idols vanish. |
| W1:64.3 | to regard yourself as unworthy of the task assigned to you by God | Himself. |
| W1:66.12 | rests. We can share in this conclusion, but in no other. For God | Himself shares it with us. |
| W1:67.4 | Any attribute which is in accord with God as He defines | Himself is appropriate for use. We are trying today to undo your |
| W1:67.4 | are also trying to emphasize that you are part of His definition of | Himself. |
| W1:68.2 | you have become, for no one can conceive of his Creator as unlike | himself. |
| W1:68.4 | God in their own image as it is certain that God created them like | Himself and defined them as part of Him. It is as sure that those who |
| W1:69.7 | determination call on the power of the universe to help you, and God | Himself will raise you from darkness into light. You are in accord |
| W1:72.5 | for salvation be? What could it be but death? In trying to present | Himself as the Author of life and not of death, He is a liar and a |
| W1:72.15 | them of the infinite Creator of infinity, Who created you like | Himself: |
| W1:73.3 | is the will of Both together. Would God create a world that kills | Himself? |
| W1:78.8 | us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God and of His Son, as holy as | Himself: |
| W1:94.6 | to yourself and wait in silent expectancy for the truth. God has | Himself promised that it will be revealed to all who ask for it. You |
| W1:95.18 | your illusions and your doubts. This is your Self, the Son of God | Himself, sinless as its Creator, with His strength within you and His |
| W1:97.2 | Father's love and peace and joy. You are the Spirit which completes | Himself and shares His function as Creator. He is with you always, as |
| W1:100.3 | the world cannot be saved. While you are sad, the light which God | Himself appointed as the means to save the world is dim and |
| W1:100.10 | goal can keep you from success when He Who calls to you is God | Himself? He will be there. You are essential to His plan. You are His |
| W1:102.7 | less loving to God's Son than He Whose Love created him as loving as | Himself. Besides these hourly five minute rests, pause frequently |
| W1:105.6 | Today accept God's peace and joy as yours. Let Him complete | Himself as He defines completion. You will understand that what |
| W1:109.2 | is the thought in which the Son of God is born again, to recognize | himself. |
| W1:110.8 | try to discover in your mind the Self Who is the holy Son of God | Himself. Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of God and |
| W1:112.3 | me. I will remain forever as I was, Created by the Changeless like | Himself. And I am one with Him, and He with me. |
| W1:123.3 | well that you are changeless, for the Son He loves is changeless as | Himself. Be grateful you are saved. Be glad you have a function in |
| W1:124.1 | the universe, we go our way rejoicing, with the thought that God | Himself goes everywhere with us. |
| W1:125.2 | it, for God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is free to save | himself, given the Word of God to be his Guide, forever in his mind |
| W1:125.5 | you return your mind to Him to give His Word to you. He has not hid | Himself from you while you have wandered off a little while from Him. |
| W1:127.4 | are and what love is. Love's meaning is your own, and shared by God | Himself. For what you are is what He is. There is no love but His, |
| W1:127.4 | what He is, is everything there is. There is no limit placed upon | Himself, and so are you unlimited as well. |
| W1:127.8 | Call to your Father, certain that His Voice will answer. He | Himself has promised this. And He Himself will place a spark of truth |
| W1:127.8 | that His Voice will answer. He Himself has promised this. And He | Himself will place a spark of truth within your mind wherever you |
| W1:129.4 | and plain as day, remains unlimited for all eternity. And God | Himself speaks to His Son as His Son speaks to Him. Their language |
| W1:131.5 | God's Son cannot seek vainly, though he try to force delay, deceive | himself, and think that it is hell he seeks. When he is wrong, he |
| W1:131.9 | split in two. How could it be His Son could be in hell when God | Himself established him in Heaven? Could he lose what the Eternal |
| W1:131.10 | Son of God make time to take away the Will of God? He thus denies | himself and contradicts what has no opposite. He thinks he made a |
| W1:132.7 | is ready to accept it, and each one must go as far as he can let | himself be led along the road to truth. He will return and go still |
| W1:132.13 | with you who are His Son, for He makes no distinctions in what is | Himself and what is still Himself. What He creates is not apart from |
| W1:132.13 | for He makes no distinctions in what is Himself and what is still | Himself. What He creates is not apart from Him, and nowhere does the |
| W1:132.14 | made to separate the Father and the Son and break away a part of God | Himself and thus destroy His wholeness. Can a world which comes from |
| W1:133.11 | tarnished as his own—the rust a sign of deep unworthiness within | himself. He who would still preserve the ego's goals and serve them |
| W1:134.10 | meaningful and keep your mind as free of guilt and pain as God | Himself intended it to be and as it is in truth. It is but lies which |
| W1:134.12 | He does not have to fight to save | himself. He does not have to kill the dragons which he thought |
| W1:134.22 | No one is crucified alone, and yet no one can enter Heaven by | himself. |
| W1:135.1 | Who would defend | himself unless he thought he was attacked, that the attack is real, |
| W1:135.1 | attacked, that the attack is real, and that his own defense can save | himself? And herein lies the folly of defense—it gives illusions |
| W1:135.27 | value when you have received your function from the Voice of God | Himself? |
| W1:139.2 | who could ask this question except one who has refused to recognize | himself? Only refusal to accept yourself could make the question seem |
| W1:139.3 | he question? Who can answer him? He merely states that he is not | himself and therefore, being something else, becomes a questioner of |
| W1:140.1 | in sickness takes another form, and so the patient now perceives | himself as well. |
| W1:R4.4 | gave creation to the Son, establishing the Son as co-creator with | Himself. It is this thought which fully guarantees salvation to the |
| W1:R4.9 | to Him. So will communion with the Lord of Hosts be yours, as He | Himself has willed it be. And as His own completion joins with Him, |
| W1:151.3 | more real than what is witnessed to by the eternal Voice of God | Himself. |
| W1:151.8 | great that doubt is meaningless before Its face. Christ cannot doubt | Himself. The Voice of God can only honor Him, rejoicing in His |
| W1:152.10 | true humility instead to Him Who has created us immaculate, like to | Himself in power and in love. The power of decision is our own. And |
| W1:152.14 | up all self-deceptions as we humbly ask our Self that He reveal | Himself to us. And He Who never left will come again to our |
| W1:154.12 | miracles and then receive a thousand more but will not know that God | Himself has left no gift beyond what you already have nor has denied |
| W1:155.8 | It is but from illusions he is saved. As they step back, he finds | himself again. |
| W1:155.10 | nothing left to keep the truth apart from God's completion, holy as | Himself. Step back in faith, and let truth lead the way. You know not |
| W1:156.3 | His remains unshared by everything that lives. What lives is holy as | Himself because what shares His life is part of Holiness and could no |
| W1:156.6 | perhaps, but who would waste an instant in approach to God | Himself for such a senseless whim? |
| W1:159.4 | the sinless are as one. Their holiness was given by His Father and | Himself. |
| W1:160.1 | but a madman could believe he is what he is not and judge against | himself? |
| W1:160.3 | your place and let you be a stranger to yourself? No one would let | himself be dispossessed so needlessly unless he thought there was |
| W1:160.5 | How simply, then, the question is resolved. Who fears has but denied | himself and said, “I am the stranger here. And so I leave my home to |
| W1:160.5 | knowing who he is, uncertain of all things but this—that he is not | himself and that his home has been denied to him. |
| W1:160.6 | What does he search for now? What can he find? A stranger to | himself can find no home wherever he may look, for he has made return |
| W1:160.8 | God has joined remains forever one, at home in Him, no stranger to | Himself. |
| W1:161.8 | he will attack because what he beholds is his own fear external to | himself, poised to attack and howling to unite with him again. |
| W1:163.4 | down to idols such as this? Here is the strength and might of God | Himself perceived within an idol made of dust. Here is the opposite |
| W1:166.2 | solid, trustworthy, and true believes in two creators or in one, | himself alone. But never in one God. |
| W1:166.3 | to claim them as his own, is being pressed to treachery against | himself. He must deny their presence, contradict the truth, and |
| W1:166.12 | thing more you had forgotten. For His touch on you has made you like | Himself. The gifts you have are not for you alone. What He has come |
| W1:167.10 | we imagine it. Who changes life because he shuts his eyes or makes | himself what he is not because he sleeps and sees in dreams an |
| W1:167.10 | an instant where the thought of life eternal has been set by God | Himself. |
| W1:168.3 | which God leans to us and lifts us up, taking salvation's final step | Himself. All steps but this we learn, instructed by His Voice. But |
| W1:168.3 | but this we learn, instructed by His Voice. But finally He comes | Himself and takes us in His arms and sweeps away the cobwebs of our |
| W1:170.10 | impenetrable, fearful and beyond surmounting, is the fear of God | Himself. Here is the basic premise which enthrones the thought of |
| W1:170.13 | of God is heard and answered. Now has fear made way for love, as God | Himself replaces cruelty. |
| W1:182.5 | home as well. He will return. But give Him just a little time to be | Himself within the peace that is His home, resting in silence and in |
| W1:182.7 | unceasingly to you. For He would bring you back with Him, that He | Himself might stay and not return again where He does not belong and |
| W1:183.6 | minds, you have established there an altar which reaches to God | Himself and to His Son. Practice but this today; repeat God's Name |
| W1:183.8 | which can never be refused. And God will come and answer it | Himself. Think not He hears the little prayers of those who call on |
| W1:183.8 | They cannot reach Him thus. He cannot hear requests that He be not | Himself or that His Son receive another name than His. |
| W1:185.2 | words and not be healed. He cannot play with dreams nor think he is | himself a dream. He cannot make a hell and think it real. He wants |
| W1:185.11 | peace of God can fail to find it. For he merely asks that he deceive | himself no longer by denying to himself what is God's Will. Who can |
| W1:185.11 | For he merely asks that he deceive himself no longer by denying to | himself what is God's Will. Who can remain unsatisfied who asks for |
| W1:186.3 | modesty is outraged. It is pride that would deny the call of God | Himself. |
| W1:187.8 | long endure before the face of one who has forgiven and has blessed | himself. |
| W1:188.4 | measure, given and returned. To you, the giver of the gift, does God | Himself give thanks. And in His blessing does the light in you shine |
| W1:188.5 | The peace of God can never be contained. Who recognizes it within | himself must give it. And the means for giving it are in his |
| W1:188.6 | worldly things outside yourself, become the holy messengers of God | Himself. These thoughts you think with Him. They recognize their |
| W1:190.3 | denied, confused with fear, perceived as mad, and seen as traitor to | Himself. If God is real, there is no pain. If pain is real, there is |
| W1:191.6 | thought like this, and you are free: you are the holy Son of God | Himself. And with this holy thought, you learn as well that you have |
| W1:191.8 | I am the holy Son of God | Himself. I cannot suffer, cannot be in pain; I cannot lose, nor can I |
| W1:191.13 | till you accept your own eternal life. You are the holy Son of God | Himself. Remember this and all the world is free. Remember this and |
| W1:192.1 | It is your Father's holy will that you complete | Himself and that your Self shall be His sacred Son, forever pure as |
| W1:193.20 | at last, to raise it up to Heaven. God will take this final step | Himself. Do not deny the little steps He asks you take to Him. |
| W1:194.8 | living creature not respond with healed perception? Who entrusts | himself to God has also placed the world within the hands to which he |
| W1:194.8 | to God has also placed the world within the hands to which he has | himself appealed for comfort and security. He lays aside the sick |
| W1:195.6 | nor impair or change our function to complete the One Who is | Himself completion. We give thanks for every living thing, for |
| W1:197.4 | accepted universally and thankfully acknowledged by the Heart of God | Himself. And would you take them back when He has gratefully accepted |
| W1:197.7 | for He is grateful only unto God, and He gives thanks for you unto | Himself. To everyone who lives will Christ yet come, for everyone |
| W1:197.8 | heart, the Heart of God is laid. He holds you dear because you are | Himself. All gratitude belongs to you because of what you are. |
| W1:198.3 | the truth must be and gives direction with the certainty of God | Himself. It is a dream in which the Son of God awakens to his Self |
| W1:198.4 | How could there be another way, when this one is the plan of God | Himself? And why would you oppose it, quarrel with it, seek to find a |
| W1:199.8 | for the increase of joy your practice brings even to it. And God | Himself extends His Love and happiness each time you say: |
| W1:202.1 | I choose to stay an instant more where I do not belong, when God | Himself has given me His Voice to call me home? I am not a body. I am |
| W1:208.1 | find the peace of God. It is within my heart, which witnesses to God | Himself. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:211.1 | [191] I am the holy Son of God | Himself. In silence and in true humility, I seek God's glory to |
| W2:I.2 | for our God and Father. He has promised He will take the final step | Himself. And we are sure His promises are kept. We have come far |
| W2:I.3 | We say some simple words of welcome and expect our Father to reveal | Himself as He has promised. We have called on Him, and He has |
| W2:I.9 | We had a wish that God would fail to have the Son whom He created for | Himself. We wanted God to change Himself and be what we would make of |
| W2:I.9 | to have the Son whom He created for Himself. We wanted God to change | Himself and be what we would make of Him. And we believed that our |
| W2:WF.4 | for he must justify his failure to forgive. But he who would forgive | himself must learn to welcome truth exactly as it is. |
| W2:221.2 | His peace, to hear Him speak to us of what we are, and to reveal | Himself unto His Son. |
| W2:244.2 | of our home. In God are we secure. For what can come to threaten God | Himself or make afraid what will forever be a part of Him? |
| W2:WIS.3 | evil; timelessness must have an end; eternal life must die. And God | Himself has lost the Son He loves, with but corruption to complete |
| W2:WIS.3 | Himself has lost the Son He loves, with but corruption to complete | Himself, His Will forever overcome by death, love slain by hate, and |
| W2:252.1 | impulses which move the world but from the boundless Love of God | Himself. How far beyond this world my Self must be, and yet how near |
| W2:255.1 | have but peace today. And yet my God assures me that His Son is like | Himself. Let me this day have faith in Him Who says I am God's Son. |
| W2:WIB.1 | that he is safe from love. Identifying with its safety, he regards | himself as what his safety is. How else could he be certain he |
| W2:273.1 | of God is mine,” and nothing can intrude upon the peace that God | Himself has given to His Son. |
| W2:277.2 | be bound unless God's Truth can lie and God can will that He deceive | Himself. |
| W2:280.1 | on the Son of God, whose Father willed that he be limitless and like | Himself in freedom and in love? |
| W2:282.1 | This the decision not to be insane and to accept myself as God | Himself, my Father and my Source, created me. This the determination |
| W2:286.2 | to a wholly certain goal. Today we will not doubt the end which God | Himself has promised us. We trust in Him and in our Self, Who still |
| W2:291.1 | it is a holiness in which we share; it is the holiness of God | Himself. |
| W2:322.1 | only to conceal the Self which is God's only Son, the likeness of | Himself, the Holy One who still abides in Him forever, as He still |
| W2:327.1 | faith. For God has promised He will hear my call and answer me | Himself. Let me but learn from my experience that this is true, and |
| W2:WIE.2 | Infinite. In its insanity it thinks it has become a victor over God | Himself, and in its terrible autonomy, it “sees” the Will of God has |

| M:4.19 | Why should he ensure himself pain? But he does want to keep for | himself all things that are of God and therefore for His Son. These |
| M:4.19 | he can give away in true generosity, protecting them forever for | himself. |
| M:5.2 | is seen as outside, fierce and powerful, eager to keep all power for | Himself. Only by His death can He be conquered by His Son. |
| M:5.3 | is forced to recognize. It stands for all that he would hide from | himself to protect his life. If he is healed, he is responsible for |
| M:5.3 | to prove to him how weak and pitiful he is. But if he chooses death | himself, his weakness is his strength. Now has he given himself what |
| M:5.3 | death himself, his weakness is his strength. Now has he given | himself what God would give to him and thus entirely usurped the |
| M:5.5 | not be healed. Who is the physician? Only the mind of the patient | himself. The outcome is what he decides that it is. Special agents |
| M:5.10 | They seek for God's Voice in this brother who would so deceive | himself as to believe God's Son can suffer. And they remind him that |
| M:5.10 | God's Son can suffer. And they remind him that he has not made | himself and must remain as God created him. They recognize illusions |
| M:6.1 | recognizing it for what it is. Having accepted the Atonement for | himself, he has also accepted it for the patient. Yet what if the |
| M:6.1 | a sense of loss so deep that the patient might even try to destroy | himself. Having nothing to live for, he may ask for death. Healing |
| M:7.1 | of healing is to limit the healing. It is now the teacher of God | himself whose mind needs to be healed. And it is this he must |
| M:7.1 | he must facilitate. He is now the patient, and he must so regard | himself. He has made a mistake and must be willing to change his mind |
| M:7.2 | of God has only one course to follow. He must use his reason to tell | himself that he has given the problem to One Who cannot fail, and |
| M:7.3 | responsibility of the miracle worker is to accept the Atonement for | himself. The teacher of God is a miracle worker because he gives the |
| M:10.1 | with what his would-be teacher says about them, and the teacher | himself is inconsistent in what he believes. |
| M:10.2 | longer attempts it. This is no sacrifice. On the contrary, he puts | himself in a position where judgment through him rather than by him |
| M:10.3 | to do this? Who except in grandiose fantasies would claim this for | himself? |
| M:10.5 | for he has none. He has given it away, along with judgment. He gave | himself to Him Whose judgment he has chosen now to trust instead of |
| M:12.1 | the Son of God. He who was always wholly spirit now no longer sees | Himself as a body or even as in a body. Therefore He is limitless. |
| M:12.1 | Thoughts are joined with God's forever and ever. His perception of | Himself is based upon God's Judgment, not His own. Thus does He share |
| M:14.3 | will remain the instant any one of them accepts the Atonement for | himself. It is not easier to forgive one sin than to forgive all of |
| M:16.3 | much time should be so spent? This must depend on the teacher of God | himself. He cannot claim that title until he has gone through the |
| M:16.8 | the teacher of God has yet to travel, and he has need of reminding | himself throughout the day of his protection. How can he do this, |
| M:16.8 | this occurs he will return to earlier attempts to place reliance on | himself alone. Forget not this is magic and that magic is a sorry |
| M:17.1 | teacher and pupil. If this issue is mishandled, the teacher has hurt | himself and has also attacked his pupil. This strengthens fear and |
| M:17.1 | that he is strengthening his own belief in sin and has condemned | himself. He can be sure as well that he has asked for depression, |
| M:17.2 | most clearly given him. For he will give only what he has chosen for | himself. And in this gift is his judgment upon the holy Son of God. |
| M:17.5 | birthplace of guilt. Who usurps the place of God and takes it for | himself now has a deadly “enemy.” And he must stand alone in his |
| M:17.5 | a deadly “enemy.” And he must stand alone in his protection and make | himself a shield to keep him safe from fury that can never be abated |
| M:17.7 | that thought has guilt already raised madness to the throne of God | Himself. And now there is no hope. Except to kill. Here is salvation |
| M:17.8 | God sends His teachers. They bring the light of hope from God | Himself. There is a way in which escape is possible. It can be |
| M:18.1 | is then inevitable, for he has “proved,” both to his pupil and | himself, that it is their task to escape from what is real. And this |
| M:18.5 | be corrected. If he senses even the faintest hint of irritation in | himself as he responds to anyone, let him instantly realize that he |
| M:18.5 | sole responsibility of God's teacher is to accept the Atonement for | himself. Atonement means correction, or the undoing of errors. When |
| M:18.5 | His sins have been forgiven him, and he no longer condemns | himself. How can he then condemn anyone? And who is there whom his |
| M:20.6 | conflict, because His Will is yours. Now is the mighty Will of God | Himself His gift to you. He does not seek to keep it for Himself. Why |
| M:20.6 | Will of God Himself His gift to you. He does not seek to keep it for | Himself. Why would you seek to keep your tiny, frail imaginings apart |
| M:21.4 | how to let his words be chosen for him by ceasing to decide for | himself what he will say. This process is merely a special case of |
| M:21.5 | own. God's teachers have God's Word behind their symbols. And He | Himself gives to the words they use the power of His Spirit, raising |
| M:22.1 | is to heal. The teacher of God has taken accepting the Atonement for | himself as his only function. What is there, then, he cannot heal? |
| M:22.4 | specific forms of sickness, both in the individual's perception of | himself and of all others as well. Nor is it at this level that the |
| M:22.5 | with a body. In so doing, he has refused to accept the Atonement for | himself and can hardly offer it to his brother in Christ's Name. He |
| M:22.6 | be unfair to God and thus unfaithful to Him. A sick person perceives | himself as separate from God. Would you see him as separate from you? |
| M:22.6 | It is your function to recognize for him that what he believes about | himself is not the truth. It is your forgiveness that must show him |
| M:22.7 | Who can limit the power of God | Himself? Who then can say who can be healed of what and what must |
| M:23.2 | stated that one who has perfectly accepted the Atonement for | himself can heal the world. Indeed, he has already done so. |
| M:23.2 | has overcome death, because he has accepted life. He has recognized | himself as God created him, and in so doing he has recognized all |
| M:23.2 | God. So has his name become the name of God, for he no longer sees | himself as separate from Him. |
| M:23.6 | brothers. Yet what he can offer them is limited by what he learns | himself. Then turn to one who laid all limits by and went beyond the |
| M:23.7 | a very present help in time of trouble? A savior who can symbolize | Himself? Yet do we need a many-faceted curriculum, not because of |
| M:24.5 | mean that the teacher of God should not believe in reincarnation | himself or discuss it with others who do? The answer is certainly |
| M:29.5 | Who assumes a power that he does not have is deceiving | himself. Yet to accept the power given him by God is but to |

| Tx:24.59 | body. In its eyes, you are a separate universe with all the power to | hold itself complete within itself, with every entry shut against |
| Tx:25.12 | exception, nor will there ever be. The only value that the past can | hold is that you learn it gave you no rewards that you would want to |
| Tx:25.14 | hopeless and unrewarding task you set yourself. Can it make sense to | hold the fixed belief that there is reason to uphold pursuit of what |
| Tx:25.15 | the form is but a means for content. And the frame is but a means to | hold the picture up so that it can be seen. A frame that hides the |

| Tx:25.35 | a home in Heaven the world cannot destroy. For it is large enough to | hold the world within its peace. |
| Tx:25.72 | you cannot accept it for yourself. It is His special function to | hold out to you the gifts the innocent deserve. And every one that |
| Tx:25.78 | would you retain. And not one doubt that this is possible will you | hold dear that sin be kept in place. You mean that truth has greater |
| Tx:26.17 | given you instead of hell, and every bolt and barrier that seems to | hold the door securely barred and locked will merely fall away and |
| Tx:26.33 | was brought to certainty so long ago that it is hard indeed to | hold it to your heart as if it were before you still. |

| Tx:27.15 | pardoned and retains no trace of condemnation that he still would | hold against himself or any living thing. |
| Tx:27.21 | pain they suffer demonstrates that they are free because they | hold him bound. And sickness is desired to prevent a shift of balance |
| Tx:27.57 | should feel and what its function is. Yet must He love whatever you | hold dear. And for each witness to the body's death He sends a |
| Tx:27.65 | not choose. And thus he suffers from the wounds a knife he does not | hold has made upon himself. This is the purpose of the world he sees. |
| Tx:28.6 | past is held in memory as you make use of it, and so it is a way to | hold the past against the now. |

| Tx:29.8 | The body, innocent of any goal, is your excuse for variable goals you | hold and force the body to maintain. You do not fear its weakness, |
| Tx:29.9 | you to abandon Him? What toys or trinkets in the gap could serve to | hold you back an instant from His love? Would you allow the body to |
| Tx:29.18 | As something, it can be perceived and thought to feel and act and | hold you in its grasp as prisoner to itself. And it can fail to be |
| Tx:29.26 | The dreams you think you like would | hold you back as much as those in which the fear is seen. For every |

| Tx:29.62 | it. Judge not, for he who judges will have need of idols which will | hold the judgment off from resting on himself. Nor can he know the |
| Tx:30.50 | or when a soft and silent woolly bear begins to squeak as he takes | hold of it. The rules he made for boxes and for bears have failed him |
| Tx:30.63 | Christ's hand they took, and they will look on Him Whose hand they | hold. The face of Christ is looked upon before the Father is |
| Tx:30.64 | of the world of fear when you have recognized Whose hand you | hold! Within your hand is everything you need to walk with perfect |
| Tx:30.64 | and quickly reach the gate of Heaven itself. For He Whose hand you | hold was waiting but for you to join Him. Now that you have come, |
| Tx:30.68 | when you look back, and you will not perceive Whose loving hand you | hold. Look forward, then, and walk in confidence with happy hearts |
| Tx:30.94 | you look upon when you decide there is not one appearance you would | hold in place of what your brother really is. Let no temptation to |
| Tx:31.12 | ever learned, all thoughts we had, and every preconception which we | hold of what things mean and what their purpose is. Let us remember |
| Tx:31.30 | source of sin and keep it in the prison-house it chose and guard and | hold itself at bay, a sleeping prisoner to the snarling dogs of hate |
| Tx:31.31 | no one as prisoner to what you have escaped. You will not want to | hold in guilt your chosen enemies nor keep in chains to the illusion |
| Tx:31.62 | What you decide in this determines all you see and think is real and | hold as true. On this one choice does all your world depend, for here |
| Tx:31.72 | On its behalf, remember what the concept of yourself which now you | hold has brought you in its wake, and welcome the glad contrast |
| Tx:31.72 | brought you in its wake, and welcome the glad contrast offered you. | Hold out your hand that you may have the gift of kind forgiveness |
| Tx:31.73 | The concept of yourself which now you | hold would guarantee your function here remain forever unaccomplished |
| Tx:31.73 | and futility. Yet it need not be fixed unless you choose to | hold it past the hope of change and keep it static and concealed |
| Tx:31.76 | space that holds your brother off unoccupied by love. Yet while you | hold this sword, you must perceive the body as yourself, for you are |
| Tx:31.84 | place among the saviors of the world, or would remain in hell and | hold your brothers there. |

| W1:74.3 | and with firm determination to understand what they mean and to | hold them in mind: |
| W1:76.9 | in Heaven's name. Yet they are no more strange than other “laws” you | hold must be obeyed to make you safe. |
| W1:76.10 | are no laws but God's. Dismiss all foolish magical beliefs today and | hold your mind in silent readiness to hear the Voice that speaks the |
| W1:78.7 | practice periods today will see him in this role. We will attempt to | hold him in our mind, first as you now consider him. We will review |
| W1:79.5 | No one could solve all the problems the world appears to | hold. They seem to be on so many levels, in such varying forms, and |

| W1:89.4 | Behind this is a miracle to which I am entitled. Let me not | hold a grievance against you [name], but offer you the miracle that |
| W1:89.7 | I would not | hold this grievance apart from my salvation. Let our grievances be |
| W1:99.4 | with Mind and thought which are forever one? What plan could | hold the truth inviolate, yet recognize the need illusions bring and |
| W1:100.10 | Who waits that you may look on Him? What little thought has power to | hold you back? What foolish goal can keep you from success when He |

| W1:R3.4 | in practicing salvation only if it interferes with goals you | hold more dear. When you withdraw the value given them, allow your |
| W1:121.11 | spark of brightness shining through the ugly picture which you | hold of him. Look at this picture till you see a light somewhere |
| W1:122.4 | value, trivial effect, or transient promise never to be kept can | hold more hope than what forgiveness brings? Why would you seek an |

| W1:127.7 | seems to hold you prisoner can be escaped by anyone who does not | hold it dear. Withdraw all value you have placed upon its meager |
| W1:128.4 | nor permit temptation to believe the world has anything you want to | hold you back. Nothing is here to cherish. Nothing here is worth one |
| W1:128.5 | of purposes we gave its aspects and its phases and its dreams. We | hold it purposeless within our minds and loosen it from all we wish |
| W1:132.1 | world except your Self? Belief is powerful indeed. The thoughts you | hold are mighty, and illusions are as strong in their effects as is |

| W1:134.3 | by making an illusion true. This twisted viewpoint but reflects the | hold that the idea of sin retains as yet upon your mind as you regard |
| W1:137.7 | made, so healing must replace the fantasies of sickness which you | hold before the simple truth. When sickness has been seen to |
| W1:137.7 | sickness has been seen to disappear in spite of all the laws that | hold it cannot but be real, then questions have been answered. And |
| W1:137.8 | And by this attribute, it proves that laws unlike the ones which | hold that sickness is inevitable are more potent than their sickly |
| W1:137.9 | you need undertake to let His laws replace the ones you made to | hold yourself a prisoner to death. |

| W1:138.8 | These mad beliefs can gain unconscious | hold of great intensity and grip the mind with terror and anxiety so |

| Tx:10.36 | you cannot bar the door which Christ holds open. Come unto me who | holds it open for you, for while I live it cannot be shut, and I live |
| Tx:11.36 | simply as, “Seek and do not find.” This is the one promise the ego | holds out to you and the one promise it will keep. For the ego |
| Tx:11.78 | Son knows his Father's protection and cannot fear. His Father's love | holds him in perfect peace, and needing nothing, he asks for nothing. |
| Tx:11.82 | healed. You have made the invisible the only truth that this world | holds. Valuing nothing, you have sought nothing and found nothing. By |
| Tx:12.3 | The darkest of your hidden cornerstones | holds your belief in guilt from your awareness. For in that dark and |
| Tx:12.49 | to attack the present, you will not see the freedom that the present | holds. Judgment and condemnation are behind you, and unless you bring |
| Tx:12.50 | Look lovingly upon the present, for it | holds the only things that are forever true. All healing lies within |
| Tx:12.63 | waits for you to leave the past behind and enter into the world He | holds out to you in love. |
| Tx:12.71 | However holy his perception may become, no world outside himself | holds his inheritance. Within himself he has no needs, for light |
| Tx:13.43 | the darkest nightmare that disturbed the Mind of God's sleeping Son | holds no power over him. He will learn the lesson of awaking. God |
| Tx:13.62 | is true. What else could ever be or ever was? This simple lesson | holds the key to the dark door which you believe is locked forever. |
| Tx:14.6 | you. His gentleness is yours, and all the love you share with God He | holds in trust for you. He would teach you nothing except how to be |
| Tx:14.21 | strange and twisted effort to communicate through not communicating | holds enough of love to make it meaningful if its interpreter is not |
| Tx:14.30 | your dark and secret thoughts to Him and look upon them with Him. He | holds the light, and you the darkness. They cannot coexist when both |
| Tx:14.40 | God. The gift which you refused is held by Him in you. His Spirit | holds it there for you. God has not left His altar, though His |
| Tx:14.43 | the mirror, and the message which shines forth from what the mirror | holds out for everyone to see no one can fail to understand. It is |
| Tx:14.56 | you both his love and need for love. Neither his mind nor yours | holds more than these two orders of thought. |
| Tx:14.57 | forever, will bless each recognition of His Son with all the love He | holds for him. Nor will the power of all His love be absent from any |
| Tx:14.60 | influence determines the present by giving it whatever meaning it | holds for you. Your learning gives the present no meaning at all. |
| Tx:15.16 | is in time but not for time. Being in you, it is eternal. What | holds remembrance of God cannot be bound by time. No more are you. |
| Tx:15.35 | cannot bring it into glad awareness while you do not want it, for it | holds the whole release from littleness. |
| Tx:15.42 | to recognize perfect communication while breaking communication | holds value to you. Ask yourselves honestly, “Would I want to have |
| Tx:15.68 | you are host to it, it will enable you to direct the anger that it | holds outward, thus protecting you. And thus it embarks on an |
| Tx:15.71 | attack without forgiveness that the ego can ensure the guilt which | holds all its relationships together. |
| Tx:15.72 | it evaluates ideas as good or bad. What makes another guilty and | holds him through guilt is “good.” What releases him from guilt is |
| Tx:15.77 | it evident that it is not impossible. In the holy instant, guilt | holds no attraction, since communication has been restored. And |
| Tx:15.106 | to keep that has no meaning, while all that you would keep away | holds all the meaning of the universe and holds the universe together |
| Tx:15.106 | that you would keep away holds all the meaning of the universe and | holds the universe together in its meaning. For unless the universe |
| Tx:16.26 | in conflict. What is beyond God? If you who hold Him and whom He | holds are the universe, all else must be outside, where nothing is. |
| Tx:16.51 | of hell lies only in the terrible attraction of guilt, which the ego | holds out to those who place their faith in littleness. The |
| Tx:16.63 | but not exclusively, as it is seen here. For the little spark which | holds the Great Rays within it is also visible, and this spark cannot |
| Tx:16.72 | to act out its hate are fantasies of your destruction. For the ego | holds the past against you, and in your escape from the past, it sees |
| Tx:16.78 | Their reality has no past, and only illusions can be forgiven. God | holds nothing against anyone, for He is incapable of illusions of any |
| Tx:17.30 | it and by His blessing enabled it to be healed. This blessing | holds within itself the truth about everything. And the truth is that |
| Tx:18.12 | this world and through another to the loveliness and joy the other | holds within it. Would you still further weaken and break apart what |
| Tx:18.62 | with your desire for it is the irresistible appeal the holy instant | holds. It calls to you to be yourself within its safe embrace. There |
| Tx:19.51 | The fierce attraction which guilt | holds for fear is wholly absent from love's gentle perception. What |
| Tx:19.59 | of your desire to get rid of it. Where the attraction of guilt | holds sway, peace is not wanted. The second obstacle that peace must |
| Tx:19.87 | is in full communication with God and you. In its tiny hands, it | holds in perfect safety every miracle you will perform, held out to |
| Tx:19.103 | cast the veil of sin upon Him to hide His loveliness. Yet still He | holds forgiveness out to you to share His holiness. This “enemy,” |
| Tx:20.69 | and give you joy. And place no value on your brother's body, which | holds him to illusions of what he is. It is his desire to see his |
| Tx:20.75 | is the projection which gives the “nothing” all the meaning that it | holds. |
| Tx:21.66 | from reason. What madness would conceal, the Holy Spirit still | holds out for everyone to look upon with gladness. |
| Tx:21.88 | it. For no one fails to ask for his desire of something he believes | holds out some promise of the power of giving it. He may be wrong in |
| Tx:22.19 | is faith in sin if the belief excludes one living thing and | holds it out apart from its forgiveness. |
| Tx:22.21 | to the ego this must be impossible, and no one undertakes to do what | holds no hope of ever being done. You know what your Creator wills is |
| Tx:22.47 | nothing. In truth you stand together with nothing in between. God | holds your hands, and what can separate whom He has joined as one |
| Tx:23.12 | made them is insane, and they remain part of what made them. Madness | holds out no menace to reality and has no influence upon it. |
| Tx:23.30 | is for? And here a final principle of chaos comes to the rescue. It | holds there is a substitute for love. This is the “magic” that will |
| Tx:24.1 | it is His Will. Can you believe a shadow can hold back the Will that | holds the universe secure? God does not wait upon illusions to let |
| Tx:24.23 | love's substitute and serve it faithfully. And no relationship that | holds its purpose dear but clings to murder as safety's weapon and |
| Tx:24.26 | No one who clings to one illusion can see himself as sinless, for he | holds one error to himself as lovely still. And so he calls it |
| Tx:24.33 | both from hell. Look on the print of nails upon his hands that he | holds out for your forgiveness. God asks your mercy on His Son and on |
| Tx:24.42 | the sights He sees, the sounds He hears. How beautiful His hand that | holds His brother's, and how lovingly He walks beside him, showing |
| Tx:24.44 | because they serve a different purpose, the strength their purpose | holds is given them. And what they see and hear and hold and lead is |
| Tx:24.46 | love is in you now and safely held in you by that same hand that | holds your brother's in your own. Christ's hand holds all His |
| Tx:24.46 | that same hand that holds your brother's in your own. Christ's hand | holds all His brothers in Himself. He gives them vision for their |
| Tx:24.58 | him not as prisoner to them. It cannot be what governs part of God | holds not for all the rest. You place yourself under the laws you see |
| Tx:25.16 | that God has set within this frame is all there is to see. The body | holds it for a while without obscuring it in any way. Yet what God |
| Tx:25.79 | given to God's Son are kept for him and offered anyone who but | holds out his hand in willingness they be received. Nor is the |
| Tx:26.42 | day and every minute in each day and every instant that each minute | holds, you but relive the single instant when the time of terror was |
| Tx:26.56 | be true? What can remain unhealed and broken from a Unity Which | holds all things within Itself? There is no sin. And every miracle is |
| Tx:27.15 | as well. For no one in whom true forgiveness reigns can suffer. He | holds not the proof of sin before his brother's eyes. And thus he |
| Tx:27.43 | has been barred. But bring the problem to the only place which | holds the answer lovingly for you. Here are the answers which will |
| Tx:27.56 | This body, purposeless within itself, | holds all your memories and all your hopes. You use its eyes to see, |
| Tx:27.57 | knows it is not real. For nothing could contain what you believe it | holds within. Nor could it tell a part of God Himself what it should |
| Tx:28.4 | a present state. You are so long accustomed to believe that memory | holds only what is past that it is hard for you to realize it is a |
| Tx:28.5 | a means to keep the past, but rather as a way to let it go. Memory | holds the message it receives and does what it is given it to do. It |
| Tx:28.16 | no end. Its starting and its ending are the same. But in itself it | holds the universe of all creation, without beginning and without an |
| Tx:28.19 | what you wanted shown to you. An empty storehouse with an open door | holds all your shreds of memories and dreams. Yet if you are the |
| Tx:28.31 | and love was never in the world of dreams. The gap is little. Yet it | holds the seeds of pestilence and every form of ill because it is a |
| Tx:29.14 | now can do could not be done without the love and grace His Presence | holds. |
| Tx:29.35 | on Heaven itself and hope to find its peace? Your brother thinks he | holds the hand of death. Believe him not. But learn instead how |
| Tx:30.42 | content you not, but in the whole completely lovely Thought God | holds of you. |
| Tx:30.44 | it. It was always there, but you were unaware of it. The Thought God | holds of you is perfectly unchanged by your forgetting. It will |
| Tx:30.45 | not birth. They wait for welcome and remembering. The Thought God | holds of you is like a star, unchangeable in an eternal sky. So high |
| Tx:30.46 | knows the Father knows this light, for He is the eternal sky which | holds it safe, forever lifted up, and anchored sure. Its perfect |
| Tx:30.46 | whether it is seen on earth or not. The sky embraces it and softly | holds it in its perfect place, which is as far from earth as earth |
| Tx:30.47 | Beyond all idols is the Thought God | holds of you. Completely unaffected by the turmoil and the terror of |
| Tx:30.47 | of forms that fear can take; quite undisturbed, the Thought God | holds of you remains exactly as it always was. Surrounded by a |
| Tx:30.47 | changelessness and of its rest in its eternal home, the Thought God | holds of you has never left the mind of its Creator Whom it knows, as |
| Tx:30.48 | Where could the Thought God | holds of you exist but where you are? Is your reality a thing apart |
| Tx:30.48 | Nor can you be aware of more than one. An idol or the Thought God | holds of you is your reality. Forget not, then, that idols must keep |
| Tx:31.23 | but his call for mercy and release from all the fearful images he | holds of what he is and of what you must be. He is afraid to walk |
| Tx:31.25 | the journey is and how it must be made. For next to you is One Who | holds the light before you so that every step is made in certainty |
| Tx:31.29 | that the mind need serve nor sets conditions that it must obey. It | holds in prison but the willing mind that would abide in it. It |
| Tx:31.68 | are the guilty “bad;” the “good” are innocent. And no one here but | holds a concept of himself in which he counts the “good” to pardon |
| Tx:31.76 | you and your brother, kept apart by an illusion of yourself which | holds him off from you and you away from him. The sword of judgment |
| Tx:31.76 | to the illusion of yourself that it may fight to keep the space that | holds your brother off unoccupied by love. Yet while you hold this |
| Tx:31.76 | yourself, for you are bound to separation from the sight of him who | holds the mirror to another view of what he is and thus what you must |
| Tx:31.78 | in all he looks upon and sees his own salvation everywhere. He | holds no concept of himself between his calm and open eyes and what |
| Tx:31.80 | by old concepts and prepared to look on only what the present | holds. It cannot judge because it does not know. And recognizing |
| W1:22.1 | Today's idea accurately describes the way anyone who | holds attack thoughts in his mind must see the world. Having |
| W1:23.4 | where is the world you see when its cause is gone? Vision already | holds a replacement for everything you think you see now. Loveliness |
| W1:45.1 | Today's idea | holds the key to what your real thoughts are. They are nothing that |
| W1:53.4 | offers no grounds for trust. Nothing in madness is dependable. It | holds out no safety and no hope. But such a world is not real. I have |
| W1:56.4 | [28] Above all else I want to see differently. The world I see | holds my fearful self-image in place, and guarantees its continuance. |
| W1:57.2 | prison door is open. I can leave it simply by walking out. Nothing | holds me in this world. Only my wish to stay keeps me a prisoner. I |
| W1:68.3 | Can all this arise from holding grievances? Oh, yes! For he who | holds grievances denies he was created by Love, and his Creator has |
| W1:68.10 | Love | holds no grievances. When I let all my grievances go, I will know I |
| W1:68.12 | Love | holds no grievances. Let me not betray my Self. |
| W1:68.14 | Love | holds no grievances. I would wake to my Self by laying all my |
| W1:76.5 | it is the victim of itself. The body's suffering is a mask the mind | holds up to hide what really suffers. It would not understand it is |
| W1:84.5 | [68] Love | holds no grievances. Grievances are completely alien to love. |
| W1:96.8 | they remain within your mind and in the Mind of God. The Holy Spirit | holds salvation in your mind and offers it the way to peace. |
| W1:96.8 | it was done. Thus is salvation kept among the thoughts your Self | holds dear and cherishes for you. |
| W1:99.5 | The Holy Spirit | holds this plan of God exactly as it was received of Him within the |
| W1:106.3 | to the truth. Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who | holds your happiness within His hand, held out to you in welcome and |
| W1:108.5 | to all minds. For these are but some special cases of one law which | holds for every kind of learning if it be directed by the One Who |
| W1:122.11 | the peace forgiveness offers and the joy the lifting of the veil | holds out to you. |
| W1:123.8 | Receive His thanks, and you will understand how lovingly He | holds you in His Mind, how deep and limitless His care for you, how |
| W1:124.12 | Add further jewels to the golden frame that | holds the mirror offered you today by hourly repeating to yourself: |
| W1:126.3 | a true equality with you. He has no claim on your forgiveness. It | holds out a gift to him but hardly to yourself. |
| W1:127.3 | everything as one, the link between the Father and the Son which | holds them both forever as the same. |
| W1:129.6 | loss can be for you in choosing not to value nothingness? This world | holds nothing that you really want, but what you choose instead you |
| W1:138.11 | brought to what is real, is flimsy and transparent in the light. It | holds no terror now, for what was made enormous, vengeful, pitiless |
| W1:R4.3 | My mind | holds only what I think with God. |
| W1:R4.6 | And yet your mind | holds only what you think with God. Your self-deceptions cannot take |
| W1:R4.8 | My mind | holds only what I think with God. |
| W1:153.11 | fail to teach what you have learned, salvation waits and darkness | holds the world in grim imprisonment. Nor will you learn that light |
| W1:157.8 | journey which you make and start today with the experience this day | holds out to you to be your own. |
| W1:164.9 | unsatisfying goals? Let not today slip by without the gifts it | holds for you receiving your consent and your acceptance. We can |
| W1:164.9 | you? Can His promise fail? Can you withhold so little when His Hand | holds out complete salvation to His Son? |
| W1:166.3 | The gifts of God are not acceptable to anyone who | holds such strange beliefs. He must believe that, to accept God's |
| W1:166.12 | you, you now must learn to give. This is the lesson that His giving | holds, for He has saved you from the solitude you sought to make in |
| W1:169.5 | idea God is. And in His Being, He encompasses all things. No mind | holds anything but Him. We say “God is,” and then we cease to speak, |
| W1:169.7 | in His Mind, accomplished and complete. He recognized all that time | holds and gave it to all minds that each one might determine from a |
| W1:182.9 | only love's messages to those who think he is their enemy. He | holds the might of Heaven in His hand and calls them friend, and |
| W1:183.3 | the world responds by laying down illusions. Every dream the world | holds dear has suddenly gone by, and where it seemed to stand you |
| W1:183.9 | silently, and let His Name become the all-encompassing idea which | holds your mind completely. Let all thoughts be still except this |
| W1:183.11 | and it is given you. No prayer but this is necessary, for it | holds them all within it. words are insignificant and all requests |
| W1:186.1 | away from every mind. Here is the thought of true humility which | holds no function as your own but that which has been given you. It |
| W1:186.3 | your Father still remembers you and offers you the perfect trust He | holds in you who are His Son. It does not ask that you be different |
| W1:190.9 | and come without defense into the quiet place where Heaven's peace | holds all things still at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and |
| W1:192.4 | is the means by which the fear of death is overcome because it | holds no fierce attraction now, and guilt is gone. |
| W1:194.4 | God | holds your future as He holds your past and present. They are one to |
| W1:194.4 | God holds your future as He | holds your past and present. They are one to Him, and so they should |
| W1:197.8 | of your perfection. In your heart, the Heart of God is laid. He | holds you dear because you are Himself. All gratitude belongs to you |
| W1:198.12 | unveiled at last in this one dream. This is the gift the Holy Spirit | holds for you from God your Father. Let today be celebrated both on |
| W1:199.3 | dear. Be not concerned that to the ego it is quite insane. The ego | holds the body dear because it dwells in it and lives united with the |
| W2:222.1 | safety from all pain. He covers me with kindness and with care and | holds in love the Son He shines upon, who also shines on Him. How |
| W2:WS.4 | our final dream. It is a dream in which there is no sorrow, for it | holds a hint of all the glory given us by God. The grass is pushing |
| W2:241.1 | joy there is today! It is a time of special celebration. For today | holds out the instant to the darkened world where its release is set. |
| W2:252.1 | have ever looked upon. Its love is limitless, with an intensity that | holds all things within it in the calm of quiet certainty. Its |
| W2:264.1 | that stands beyond Your one creation or without the Love Which | holds all things within Itself. Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We |
| W2:WIRW.2 | The real world | holds a counterpart for each unhappy thought reflected in your world, |
| W2:293.2 | the sounds of fear. There is a real world which the present | holds safe from all past mistakes. And I would see only this world |
| W2:330.1 | images of pain? Why should we teach them they are powerless when God | holds out His power and His love and bids them take what is already |
| W2:332.2 | We would not bind the world again today. Fear | holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has given us the means to set it |
| W2:338.2 | But the Thought You gave me promises to lead me home, because it | holds Your promise to Your Son. |
| W2:340.1 | I was born into this world but to achieve this day and what it | holds in joy and freedom for Your holy Son and for the world he made, |
| M:13.8 | world contains it not, but learn this course and it is yours. God | holds out His Word to you, for He has need of teachers. What other |
| M:19.3 | of the distorted world back to the mind that made the lens and | holds it very dear. Selectively and arbitrarily is every concept of |
| M:22.2 | God has given him long before he has learned all that his acceptance | holds out to him. It is only the end that is certain. Anywhere along |
| M:27.2 | in dust and disappointment and despair could but be feared. He | holds your little life in his hand but by a thread, ready to break it |
| M:27.3 | of the fear of God. His love is blotted out in the idea, which | holds it from awareness like a shield held to obscure the sun. The |
| M:27.3 | of the symbol is enough to show it cannot co-exist with God. It | holds an image of the Son of God in which he is “laid to rest” in |

| Tx:1.83 | It does this by the underlying recognition of perfect equality and | holiness between the doer and the receiver on which the miracle rests. |
| Tx:2.45 | step is to realize that a temple is not a building at all. Its real | holiness lies in the inner altar around which the building is built. |
| Tx:11.59 | knowledge because perception has become so holy that its transfer to | holiness is merely its natural extension. Love transfers to love |

| Tx:13.29 | Father can have no fear for any reason to look within and see your | holiness. You cannot be as you believed you were. Your guilt is |

| Tx:14.46 | you will turn from time to holiness as surely as the reflection of | holiness calls everyone to lay all guilt aside. Reflect the peace of |
| Tx:14.74 | must encompass faith in His creation. In this consistency lies His | holiness, which He cannot abandon, for it is not His Will to do so. |
| Tx:15.10 | and wholly without condemnation. From this holy instant wherein | holiness was born again, you will go forth in time without fear and |
| Tx:15.11 | Time is inconceivable without change, yet | holiness does not change. Learn from this instant more than merely |
| Tx:15.13 | to give it to your brothers on behalf of theirs. For the instant of | holiness is shared, and cannot be yours alone. Remember, then, when |
| Tx:15.14 | your instantaneous escape from guilt. You must be holy if you offer | holiness. How long is an instant? As long as it takes to reestablish |
| Tx:15.15 | to you. He Who transcends time for you understands what time is for. | Holiness lies not in time but in eternity. There never was an instant |
| Tx:15.15 | beyond attack and without variability. Time stands still in his | holiness and changes not. And so it is no longer time at all. For, |
| Tx:15.17 | Do not be concerned with time and fear not the instant of | holiness which will remove all fear. For the instant of peace is |
| Tx:15.17 | is God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to teach God's holy Son his | holiness. His joy is not contained in time. His teaching is for you |
| Tx:15.29 | In this season (Christmas), which celebrates the birth of | holiness into this world, join with me, who decided for holiness for |
| Tx:15.29 | the birth of holiness into this world, join with me, who decided for | holiness for you. It is our task together to restore the awareness of |
| Tx:15.30 | into nothingness. Holy Child of God, when will you learn that only | holiness can content you and give you peace? |
| Tx:15.31 | to grandeur. Welcome me not into a manger but into the altar to | holiness, where holiness abides in perfect peace. My Kingdom is not |
| Tx:15.31 | Welcome me not into a manger but into the altar to holiness, where | holiness abides in perfect peace. My Kingdom is not of this world |
| Tx:15.49 | the reason why you made them may be, He can translate them into | holiness by removing as much fear as you will let Him. You can place |
| Tx:15.57 | of it, and in our appreciation of his worth, we cannot doubt his | holiness. And so we love him. |
| Tx:15.58 | All separation vanishes as | holiness is shared. For holiness is power, and by sharing it, it |
| Tx:15.58 | All separation vanishes as holiness is shared. For | holiness is power, and by sharing it, it gains in strength. If you |
| Tx:15.102 | there. Love must be total to give Him welcome, for the Presence of | Holiness creates the holiness which surrounds it. No fear can touch |
| Tx:15.102 | total to give Him welcome, for the Presence of Holiness creates the | holiness which surrounds it. No fear can touch the host who cradles |
| Tx:16.10 | You still think | holiness is difficult because you cannot see how it can be extended |
| Tx:16.10 | everyone to be holy. Concern yourselves not with the extension of | holiness, for the nature of miracles you do not understand. Nor do |
| Tx:16.17 | will increase, and peace will grow with its increase. The power of | holiness and the weakness of attack have both been brought into |
| Tx:16.17 | And this has been accomplished in minds firmly convinced that | holiness is weakness and attack is power. Should not this be a |
| Tx:16.38 | your completion. Fear not to cross to the abode of peace and perfect | holiness. Only there is the completion of God and of His Son |
| Tx:16.67 | for you have come too far to yield to the illusion of the beauty and | holiness of guilt. Only the wholly insane could look on death and |
| Tx:16.81 | in which there are no illusions and where none can ever enter. Our | holiness is Yours. What can there be in us that needs forgiveness |
| Tx:17.16 | relationship unholy. For unholiness seeks to reinforce itself, as | holiness does, by gathering to itself what it perceives as like |
| Tx:17.22 | Whom God has joined as one, the ego cannot break apart. The spark of | holiness must be safe, however hidden it may be, in every |
| Tx:17.45 | For once the unholy relationship has accepted the goal of | holiness, it can never again be what it was. |
| Tx:17.47 | undertaken by two individuals for their unholy purposes suddenly has | holiness for its goal. As these two contemplate their relationship |
| Tx:17.67 | can be lacking in any situation. But remember this: the goal of | holiness was set for your relationship and not by you. You did not |
| Tx:17.67 | set for your relationship and not by you. You did not set it because | holiness cannot be seen except through faith, and your relationship |
| Tx:17.69 | faithlessness against each other. No relationship is holy unless its | holiness goes with it everywhere. As holiness and faith go hand in |
| Tx:17.69 | relationship is holy unless its holiness goes with it everywhere. As | holiness and faith go hand in hand, so must its faith go everywhere |
| Tx:18.20 | therein lay its misery. As its unholiness kept it a thing apart, its | holiness will become an offering to everyone. |
| Tx:18.27 | received it. You cannot take it back. You have accepted God. The | holiness of your relationship is established in Heaven. You do not |
| Tx:18.35 | yourself for Him. It is impossible to make arrogant preparations for | holiness and not believe that it is up to you to establish the |
| Tx:18.46 | When you feel the | holiness of your relationship is threatened by anything, stop |
| Tx:18.84 | You have been told to bring the darkness to the light and guilt to | holiness. And you have also been told that error must be corrected at |
| Tx:19.13 | not recognize salvation in each other. Yet faith unites you in the | holiness you see, not through the body's eyes but in the sight of Him |
| Tx:19.20 | arrogance, and the acceptance of the self as sinful is perceived as | holiness. And it is this doctrine which replaces the reality of the |
| Tx:19.38 | with Him? For it is He Who offered your relationship the gift of | holiness, without which it would have been forever impossible to |
| Tx:19.103 | loveliness. Yet still He holds forgiveness out to you to share His | holiness. This “enemy,” this “stranger” still offers you salvation as |
| Tx:19.105 | offer thanks to God that he is holy and has been given the gift of | holiness for you. Join him in gladness and remove all trace of guilt |
| Tx:20.4 | joy and not of mourning. Look on your risen Friend and celebrate his | holiness along with me. For Easter is the time of your salvation, |
| Tx:20.13 | joy. We go beyond the veil of fear, lighting each other's way. The | holiness that leads us is within us, as is our home. So will we find |
| Tx:20.18 | not afraid of it, for it is within the truth they recognized their | holiness and rejoiced at what they saw. They looked on it directly, |
| Tx:20.24 | each other as the eternal gift of God to you? Did you see the | holiness that shone in both of you to bless the other? That is the |
| Tx:20.25 | your freedom lies. He seemed to be crucified beside you. And yet his | holiness remained untouched and perfect, and with him beside you, you |
| Tx:20.26 | for each of you for one another and for himself. Here there is only | holiness and joining without limit. For what is Heaven but union, |
| Tx:20.59 | that follows the sudden change in a relationship from sin to | holiness should now be almost over. To the extent you still |
| Tx:20.61 | him as a body. Is this not perfectly consistent with the goal of | holiness? For holiness is merely the result of letting the effects of |
| Tx:20.61 | Is this not perfectly consistent with the goal of holiness? For | holiness is merely the result of letting the effects of sin be lifted |
| Tx:20.61 | always true is recognized. To see a sinless body is impossible, for | holiness is positive, and the body is merely neutral. It is not |
| Tx:20.75 | Only two purposes are possible. And one is sin, the other | holiness. Nothing is in between, and which you choose determines what |
| Tx:20.77 | come after? Think but an instant just on this—you can behold the | holiness God gave His Son. And never need you think that there is |
| Tx:21.2 | disaster and catastrophe, you tried to crucify him. If you see | holiness and hope, you joined the Will of God to set him free. There |
| Tx:21.22 | The Holy Spirit can give you faith in | holiness and vision to see it easily enough. But you have not left |
| Tx:21.31 | opposite directions. What faith you give to sin you take away from | holiness. And what you offer holiness has been removed from sin. |
| Tx:21.31 | you give to sin you take away from holiness. And what you offer | holiness has been removed from sin. |
| Tx:21.32 | Faith and belief and vision are the means by which the goal of | holiness is reached. Through them the Holy Spirit leads you to the |
| Tx:21.34 | is all you want to see. Then will you give your faith to | holiness, desiring and believing in it because of your desire. |
| Tx:21.35 | as all the means that once served sin are redirected now toward | holiness. For what you think is sin is limitation, and whom you try |
| Tx:21.35 | are dear to you. And so the body has your faith and your belief. But | holiness would set your brother free, removing hatred by removing |
| Tx:21.36 | all limitations be removed. Desiring to look upon their brothers in | holiness, the power of belief and faith goes far beyond the body, |
| Tx:21.36 | all who choose to look away from sin are given vision and are led to | holiness. |
| Tx:21.90 | will never change. For you have asked that nothing stand between the | holiness of your relationship and your awareness of its holiness. |
| Tx:21.90 | between the holiness of your relationship and your awareness of its | holiness. |
| Tx:22.2 | The | holiness of your relationship forgives you both, undoing the effects |
| Tx:22.3 | enough not to return to earth. For this relationship has Heaven's | holiness. How far from home can a relationship so like to Heaven be? |
| Tx:22.12 | seeming new and yet as old as He, a tiny newcomer, dependent on the | holiness of your relationship to let Him live. |
| Tx:22.36 | Let not the form of his mistakes keep you from him whose | holiness is yours. Let not the vision of his holiness, the sight of |
| Tx:22.36 | keep you from him whose holiness is yours. Let not the vision of his | holiness, the sight of which would show you your forgiveness, be kept |
| Tx:22.36 | with his body, which you believe can sin? Beyond his errors is his | holiness and your salvation. You gave him not his holiness but tried |
| Tx:22.36 | his errors is his holiness and your salvation. You gave him not his | holiness but tried to see your sins in him to save yourself. And yet |
| Tx:22.36 | but tried to see your sins in him to save yourself. And yet his | holiness is your forgiveness. Can you be saved by making sinful the |
| Tx:22.36 | is your forgiveness. Can you be saved by making sinful the one whose | holiness is your salvation? |
| Tx:22.37 | A holy relationship, however newly born, must value | holiness above all else. Unholy values will produce confusion, and in |
| Tx:24.10 | made clean of special goals. And would you now defeat the goal of | holiness that Heaven gave it? What perspective can the special have |
| Tx:24.31 | the great Creator of the universe, the Source of life, of love and | holiness, the perfect Father of a perfect Son, for your illusions of |
| Tx:24.45 | God replaces all the fear you thought you saw within yourself. His | holiness shows you Himself in him whose hand you hold and whom you |
| Tx:24.46 | out His hand that everyone may bless all living things and see their | holiness. And He rejoices that these sights are yours to look upon |
| Tx:24.47 | you except he be as perfect as yourself and just as like to Him in | holiness as you must be? |
| Tx:24.49 | Before your brother's | holiness the world is still and peace descends on it in gentleness |
| Tx:24.49 | you that all your doubts about yourself may disappear before his | holiness. See in him God's creation. For in him, his Father waits for |
| Tx:24.50 | not part of Him, and nothing is but is alive in Him. Your brother's | holiness shows you that God is one with him and you—that what he |
| Tx:24.53 | both in hell. Yet will his perfect sinlessness release you both, for | holiness is quite impartial, with one judgment made for all it looks |
| Tx:24.54 | no sight nor place nor time where He is not. Within your brother's | holiness, the perfect frame for your salvation and the world's, is |
| Tx:24.54 | brother's body shows not Christ to you. He is set forth within his | holiness. |
| Tx:24.55 | Choose, then, his body or his | holiness as what you want to see, and which you choose is yours to |
| Tx:24.55 | your salvation if he is but a body? Where is your peace but in his | holiness? And where is God Himself but in that part of Him He set |
| Tx:24.55 | God Himself but in that part of Him He set forever in your brother's | holiness that you might see the truth about yourself set forth at |
| Tx:24.56 | Your brother's | holiness is sacrament and benediction unto you. His errors cannot |
| Tx:24.56 | judgment you have laid on both of you. The Christ in you beholds his | holiness. Your specialness looks on his body and beholds him not. |
| Tx:24.58 | in you can see your brother truly. Would you decide against the | holiness He sees? |
| Tx:24.61 | You who believe it easier to see your brother's body than his | holiness, be sure you understand what made this judgment. Here is the |
| Tx:24.63 | and your changelessness is recognized in its acknowledgment. The | holiness in you belongs to him. And by your seeing it in him, returns |
| Tx:24.64 | claims you instead? How can you fail to know it is in his | holiness? Seek not to make your specialness the truth, for if it |
| Tx:24.64 | be lost indeed. Be thankful, rather, it is given you to see his | holiness because it is the truth. And what is true in him must be as |
| Tx:24.65 | is your condemnation of your own. Weave, rather then, a frame of | holiness around him that the truth may shine on him and give you |
| Tx:24.66 | for nothing. Whatever is perceived as means for truth shares in its | holiness and rests in light as safely as itself. Nor will that light |
| Tx:25.1 | be housed in death. No more can you. Christ is within a frame of | holiness whose only purpose is that He may be made manifest to those |
| Tx:25.1 | were. Then will their bodies melt away that they may frame His | holiness in them. |
| Tx:25.2 | Son of God abide exactly where he is and walks with him within his | holiness, as plain to see as is his specialness set forth within his |
| Tx:25.3 | His purpose folds the body in His light and fills it with the | holiness that shines from Him. And nothing that the body says or does |
| Tx:25.4 | means to do it. For the mind is His. And so it must be yours. His | holiness directs the body through the mind at one with Him. And you |
| Tx:25.4 | are any differences perceived to stand between the aspects of His | holiness, which meet and join and raise Him to His Father, whole and |
| Tx:25.5 | How can you manifest the Christ in you except you look on | holiness and see Him there? Perception tells you, you are manifest in |
| Tx:25.5 | you will see your sinfulness wherein you stand condemned. Set in his | holiness, the Christ in him proclaims himself as you. |
| Tx:25.7 | manifest in you who are His Son. Each aspect of Himself is framed in | holiness and perfect purity, in love celestial and so complete it |
| Tx:25.18 | it, not in flesh and bones, but in a frame as lovely as Itself. Its | holiness lights up the sinlessness the frame of darkness hides and |
| Tx:25.18 | of death. God kept it safe that you might look on it and see the | holiness that He has given it. |
| Tx:25.19 | becomes your strength, and both will gladly look within and see the | holiness that must be there because of what you looked upon in him. |
| Tx:25.19 | of what you looked upon in him. He is the frame in which your | holiness is set, and what God gave him must be given you. However |
| Tx:25.73 | from him? For that would be injustice and unfair indeed to all the | holiness that is in him, however much he recognize it not. God knows |
| Tx:26.5 | as Heaven itself. No instant passes here in which your brother's | holiness cannot be seen, to add a limitless supply to every meager |
| Tx:26.6 | to witness to that you may see it and rejoice with him. Make not his | holiness a sacrifice to your belief in sin. You sacrifice your |
| Tx:26.7 | Yet every instant can you be reborn and given life again. His | holiness gives life to you, who cannot die because his sinlessness is |
| Tx:26.79 | of light. Because of Them. It is Their Presence which has lifted | holiness again to take its ancient place upon an ancient throne. |
| Tx:28.45 | gap that lies between the broken pieces of Your holy Son. Your | holiness, complete and perfect, lies in every one of them. And they |
| Tx:28.66 | Son unto his home. And with this holy purpose is it made a home of | holiness a little while because it shares your Father's Will with you. |
| Tx:29.68 | the song of Heaven can be heard, not with the ears, but with the | holiness which never left the altar which abides forever deep within |
| Tx:31.78 | could you be the savior of the Son of God? How would you know his | holiness while you see him apart from yours? For holiness is seen |
| Tx:31.78 | would you know his holiness while you see him apart from yours? For | holiness is seen through holy eyes that look upon the innocence |
| Tx:31.87 | release your minds from everything that hides His face from you. His | holiness is yours because He is the only power that is real in you. |
| Tx:31.91 | as natural as fear and agony appeared to be before the choice for | holiness was made. For in that choice are false distinctions gone, |
| W1:29.3 | stands beyond your little range. When vision has shown you the | holiness that lights up the world, you will understand today's idea |
| W1:35.4 | unreal because you do not look upon yourself through the eyes of | holiness. |
| W1:36.1 | or a part of His Mind would be sinful. Your sight is related to His | holiness, not to your ego and therefore not to your body. |
| W1:36.4 | My | holiness envelops that rug. My holiness envelops that wall. My |
| W1:36.4 | My holiness envelops that rug. My | holiness envelops that wall. My holiness envelops these fingers. My |
| W1:36.4 | My holiness envelops that rug. My holiness envelops that wall. My | holiness envelops these fingers. My holiness envelops that chair. My |
| W1:36.4 | holiness envelops that wall. My holiness envelops these fingers. My | holiness envelops that chair. My holiness envelops that body. My |
| W1:36.4 | holiness envelops these fingers. My holiness envelops that chair. My | holiness envelops that body. My holiness envelops this pen. |
| W1:36.4 | My holiness envelops that chair. My holiness envelops that body. My | holiness envelops this pen. |
| W1:37.1 | why you are here. Your purpose is to see the world through your own | holiness. Thus are you and the world blessed together. No one loses; |
| W1:37.2 | is his wholeness restored to his awareness through your vision. Your | holiness blesses him by asking nothing of him. Those who see |
| W1:37.3 | Your | holiness is the salvation of the world. It lets you teach the world |
| W1:37.3 | it anything, but merely by your quiet recognition that in your | holiness are all things blessed, along with you. |
| W1:37.5 | My | holiness blesses this chair. My holiness blesses that window. My |
| W1:37.5 | My holiness blesses this chair. My | holiness blesses that window. My holiness blesses this body. |
| W1:37.5 | My holiness blesses this chair. My holiness blesses that window. My | holiness blesses this body. |
| W1:37.7 | My | holiness blesses you, [name]. |
| W1:37.9 | to cause an adverse reaction in you. Offer him the blessing of your | holiness immediately that you may learn to keep it in your own |
| W1:38.1 | Your | holiness reverses all the laws of the world. It is beyond every |
| W1:38.1 | restriction of time, space, distance, and limits of any kind. Your | holiness is totally unlimited in its power because it establishes you |
| W1:38.1 | as a Son of God, at one with the Mind of his Creator. Through your | holiness, the power of God is made manifest. Through your holiness |
| W1:38.1 | your holiness, the power of God is made manifest. Through your | holiness the power of God is made available. And there is nothing the |
| W1:38.2 | Your | holiness, then, can remove all pain, can end all sorrow, and can |
| W1:38.3 | In today's exercises, we will apply the power of your | holiness to all problems, difficulties, or suffering in any form that |
| W1:38.5 | involving ______ in which I see myself, there is nothing that my | holiness cannot do. In the situation involving ______ in which _____ |
| W1:38.5 | involving ______ in which _____ sees himself, there is nothing my | holiness cannot do. |
| W1:38.7 | There is nothing my | holiness cannot do because the power of God lies in it. |
| W1:38.8 | but keep the exercises focused on the theme “There is nothing my | holiness cannot do.” The purpose of today's exercises is to begin to |
| W1:39.3 | We have already said that your | holiness is the salvation of the world. What about your own |
| W1:39.4 | Your | holiness is the answer to every question that was ever asked, is |
| W1:39.4 | ever asked, is being asked now, or will be asked in the future. Your | holiness means the end of guilt and therefore the end of hell. Your |
| W1:39.4 | holiness means the end of guilt and therefore the end of hell. Your | holiness is the salvation of the world and your own. How could you to |
| W1:39.4 | the salvation of the world and your own. How could you to whom your | holiness belongs be excluded from it? God does not know unholiness. |
| W1:39.9 | My unloving thoughts about _____ are keeping me in hell. My | holiness is my salvation. |
| W1:39.11 | it, the idea should be stated so that its meaning remains that your | holiness is your salvation. |
| W1:39.15 | My | holiness is my salvation from this. |
| W1:41.3 | You can never be deprived of your perfect | holiness because its Source goes with you wherever you go. You can |
| W1:41.8 | of what you are saying; what the words mean. Concentrate on the | holiness which they imply about you; on the unfailing companionship |
| W1:43.2 | unholy purpose, it must become the means for the restoration of his | holiness to his awareness. Perception has no meaning. Yet does the |
| W1:45.11 | able to remind yourself that this is no idle game but an exercise in | holiness and an attempt to reach the Kingdom of Heaven. |
| W1:45.12 | idea, try to remember how important it is to you to understand the | holiness of the mind that thinks with God. Take a minute or two as |
| W1:45.12 | as you repeat the idea throughout the day to appreciate your mind's | holiness. Stand aside, however briefly, from all thoughts that are |
| W1:57.6 | my illusions about myself had kept hidden. I begin to understand the | holiness of all living things including myself, and their oneness |
| W1:58.2 | [36] My | holiness envelops everything I see. From my holiness does the |
| W1:58.2 | [36] My holiness envelops everything I see. From my | holiness does the perception of the real world come. Having forgiven, |
| W1:58.2 | that is the truth about me. Seen through understanding eyes, the | holiness of the world is all I see, for I can picture only the |
| W1:58.3 | [37] My | holiness blesses the world. The perception of my holiness does not |
| W1:58.3 | [37] My holiness blesses the world. The perception of my | holiness does not bless me alone. Everyone and everything I see in |
| W1:58.3 | apart from this joy because there is nothing that does not share my | holiness. As I recognize my holiness, so does the holiness of the |
| W1:58.3 | there is nothing that does not share my holiness. As I recognize my | holiness, so does the holiness of the world shine forth for everyone |
| W1:58.3 | does not share my holiness. As I recognize my holiness, so does the | holiness of the world shine forth for everyone to see. |
| W1:58.4 | [38] There is nothing my | holiness cannot do. My holiness is unlimited in its power to heal |
| W1:58.4 | [38] There is nothing my holiness cannot do. My | holiness is unlimited in its power to heal because it is unlimited in |
| W1:58.4 | And what are all illusions except false ideas about myself? My | holiness undoes them all by asserting the truth about me. In the |
| W1:58.4 | them all by asserting the truth about me. In the presence of my | holiness, which I share with God Himself, all idols vanish. |
| W1:58.5 | [39] My | holiness is my salvation. Since my holiness saves me from all guilt, |
| W1:58.5 | [39] My holiness is my salvation. Since my | holiness saves me from all guilt, recognizing my holiness is |
| W1:58.5 | salvation. Since my holiness saves me from all guilt, recognizing my | holiness is recognizing my salvation. It is also recognizing the |
| W1:58.5 | also recognizing the salvation of the world. Once I have accepted my | holiness, nothing can make me afraid. And because I am unafraid, |
| W1:67.3 | Holiness created me holy. Kindness created me kind. Helpfulness | |
| W1:81.2 | the function of lighting up the world! Let me be still before my | holiness. In its calm light, let all my conflicts disappear. In its |

| W1:111.2 | are seen in light. I cannot see in darkness. Let the light of | holiness and truth light up my mind And let me see the innocence |
| W1:121.12 | Perceive him now as more than friend to you, for in that light his | holiness shows you your savior, saved and saving, healed and whole. |
| W1:124.2 | How holy are our minds! And everything we see reflects the | holiness within the mind at one with God and with itself. How easily |
| W1:124.13 | with God, at one with all my brothers and my Self, in everlasting | holiness and peace. |
| W1:125.4 | the quiet place within the mind where He abides forever in the | holiness which He created and will never leave. |
| W1:140.5 | been cured in God and not in idle dreams. For cure must come from | holiness, and holiness cannot be found where sin is cherished. God |
| W1:140.5 | in God and not in idle dreams. For cure must come from holiness, and | holiness cannot be found where sin is cherished. God abides in holy |
| W1:140.5 | home in which to hide from His beneficence. There is no place where | holiness is not, and nowhere sin and sickness can abide. |
| W1:R4.12 | to the light, from grief to joy, from pain to peace, from sin to | holiness. God offers thanks to you who practice thus the keeping of |
| W1:152.2 | of joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a mind where love and perfect | holiness abide? Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the truth at |
| W1:156.3 | Yet where He is there must be | holiness as well as life. No attribute of His remains unshared by |
| W1:156.3 | lives is holy as Himself because what shares His life is part of | Holiness and could no more be sinful than the sun could choose to be |
| W1:156.5 | The light you carry is their own, and thus they see in you their | holiness, saluting you as savior and as God. Accept their reverence, |
| W1:156.5 | you as savior and as God. Accept their reverence, for it is due to | Holiness itself Which walks with you, transforming in Its gentle |
| W1:156.9 | I walk with God in perfect | holiness. I light the world, I light my mind and all the minds which |
| W1:158.8 | as the Son of God he is, acknowledging that he is one with you in | holiness. |
| W1:158.9 | gone. Unseen by One, they merely disappear because a vision of the | holiness which lies beyond them comes to take their place. It matters |
| W1:158.11 | is reflected in a way so accurate its image shares its unseen | holiness; its likeness shines with its immortal love. We practice |
| W1:159.4 | no sin in anyone, and in His sight the sinless are as one. Their | holiness was given by His Father and Himself. |
| W1:159.5 | forgot, and never able to obscure the light that shines beyond them. | Holiness has been restored to vision, and the blind can see. |
| W1:162.5 | We honor you today. Yours is the right to perfect | holiness you now accept. With this acceptance is salvation brought to |
| W1:162.5 | is salvation brought to everyone, for who could cherish sin when | holiness like this has blessed the world? Who could despair when |
| W1:162.6 | heart with loving invitation, eager to unite with one like him in | holiness? You are as God created you. These words dispel the night, |
| W1:164.4 | peace you carry in your heart and have not lost. There is a sense of | holiness in you the thought of sin has never touched. All this today |
| W1:164.7 | from misery. All that we see will but increase our joy because its | holiness reflects our own. We stand forgiven in the sight of Christ, |
| W1:167.12 | For the wakened mind is one that knows its Source, its Self, its | holiness. |
| W1:170.14 | Your glory, and in them we find our peace. Holy are we because Your | holiness has set us free. And we give thanks. Amen. |
| W1:173.3 | [156] I walk with God in perfect | holiness. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:182.4 | endure forever. Where this Child shall go is holy ground. It is His | holiness that lights up Heaven and that brings to earth the pure |
| W1:183.2 | shelter you from every worldly thought that would intrude upon your | holiness. |
| W1:186.4 | be certain only that He knows our strengths, our wisdom, and our | holiness. And if He deems us worthy, so we are. It is but arrogance |
| W1:186.6 | for God assures you that you have the strength, the wisdom, and the | holiness to go beyond all images. You are not weak, as is the image |
| W1:187.9 | you offer him beside them. Who could fear to look upon such lovely | holiness? The great illusion of the fear of God diminishes to |
| W1:187.11 | it a home for Innocence Itself, Who dwells in us and offers us His | holiness as ours. |
| W1:188.8 | of strange desires and disordered wishes. We restore to them the | holiness of their inheritance. |
| W1:190.5 | And what was seen as fearful now becomes a source of innocence and | holiness. |
| W1:190.9 | put aside the withering assaults with which you seek to hide your | holiness. Here will you understand there is no pain. Here does the |
| W1:190.11 | our hearts as we are free to choose our joy instead of pain, our | holiness in place of sin, the peace of God instead of conflict, and |
| W1:191.12 | he made. In error it began. But it will end in the reflection of his | holiness. And we will sleep no more and dream of death. Then join |
| W1:192.6 | Son. Only forgiveness can persuade the Son to look again upon his | holiness. With anger gone, you will indeed perceive that for Christ's |
| W1:194.5 | all his glory shines upon a world made free with him to share his | holiness. |
| W1:198.14 | There is no condemnation in him. He is perfect in his | holiness. He needs no thoughts of mercy. Who could give him gifts |
| W2:227.2 | Son of God this day comes home again, released from sin and clad in | holiness, with his right mind restored to him at last. |
| W2:228.1 | My Father knows my | holiness. Shall I deny His knowledge and believe in what His |
| W2:228.2 | came. I have not left that Source to enter in a body and to die. My | holiness remains a part of me, as I am part of You. And my mistakes |
| W2:235.2 | Father, Your | holiness is mine. Your Love created me and made my sinlessness |
| W2:238.1 | I must be beloved of You indeed. And I must be steadfast in | holiness as well, that You would give Your Son to me in certainty |
| W2:240.2 | free. Let us forgive him in Your Name, that we may understand his | holiness and feel the love for him that is Your own as well. |
| W2:252.1 | My Self is holy beyond all the thoughts of | holiness of which I now conceive. Its shimmering and perfect purity |
| W2:256.1 | And who would yet remain asleep in heavy clouds of doubt about the | holiness of him whom God created sinless? Here we can but dream. But |
| W2:264.1 | There is no Source but This, and nothing is that does not share Its | holiness, that stands beyond Your one creation or without the Love |
| W2:283.1 | unchangeable. Let me not worship idols. I am He my Father loves. His | holiness remains the light of Heaven and the Love of God. Is not what |
| W2:285.1 | by me. And I will ask for only joyous things the instant I accept my | holiness. For what would be the use of pain to me, what purpose would |
| W2:285.1 | and loss avail me, if insanity departs from me today and I accept my | holiness instead? |
| W2:285.2 | Father, my | holiness is Yours. Let me rejoice in it and through forgiveness be |
| W2:285.2 | be restored to sanity. Your Son is still as You created him. My | holiness is part of me and also part of You. And what can alter |
| W2:285.2 | My holiness is part of me and also part of You. And what can alter | Holiness Itself? |
| W2:288.2 | know you have forgiven me if you behold your brother in the light of | holiness. He cannot be less holy than can I, and you cannot be holier |
| W2:291.1 | and for the world as well. What loveliness we look upon today! What | holiness we see surrounding us! And it is given us to recognize it is |
| W2:291.1 | we see surrounding us! And it is given us to recognize it is a | holiness in which we share; it is the holiness of God Himself. |
| W2:291.1 | given us to recognize it is a holiness in which we share; it is the | holiness of God Himself. |
| W2:299.1 | My | holiness is far beyond my own ability to understand or know. Yet God |
| W2:299.1 | or know. Yet God my Father, Who created it, acknowledges my | holiness as His. Our will together understands it. And our will |
| W2:299.2 | Father, my | holiness is not of me. It is not mine to be destroyed by sin. It is |
| W2:299.2 | healed, for they remain as You created them. And I can know my | holiness. For Holiness Itself created me, and I can know my Source |
| W2:299.2 | for they remain as You created them. And I can know my holiness. For | Holiness Itself created me, and I can know my Source because it is |
| W2:302.1 | come. Let me forgive Your holy world today that I may look upon its | holiness and understand it but reflects my own. |
| W2:304.2 | You lead me from the darkness to the light, from sin to | holiness. Let me forgive and thus receive salvation for the world. It |
| W2:306.1 | I made. Today I can go past all fear and be restored to love and | holiness and peace. Today I am redeemed and born anew into a world of |
| W2:309.1 | not true and made it real. Yet it has no effects. Within me is the | holiness of God. Within me is the memory of Him. |
| W2:310.2 | salvation to us, and Who set us free. We are restored to peace and | holiness. There is no room in us for fear today, for we have welcomed |
| W2:WICR.5 | hear His Voice, and we forgive creation in the name of its Creator, | Holiness Itself, Whose holiness His own creation shares; Whose |
| W2:WICR.5 | forgive creation in the name of its Creator, Holiness Itself, Whose | holiness His own creation shares; Whose holiness is still a part of |
| W2:WICR.5 | Holiness Itself, Whose holiness His own creation shares; Whose | holiness is still a part of us. |
| W2:335.2 | Your memory to me except to see my brother's sinlessness? His | holiness reminds me that he was created one with me and like myself. |
| W2:341.1 | and dear and still the universe smiles back on You and shares Your | holiness. How pure, how safe, how sacred then are we, abiding in Your |
| W2:348.1 | me is perfect sinlessness. What can I fear when You created me in | holiness as perfect as Your own? |
| W2:360.1 | certainty be found. Peace be to me and peace to all the world. In | holiness were we created, and in holiness do we remain. Your Son is |
| W2:360.1 | me and peace to all the world. In holiness were we created, and in | holiness do we remain. Your Son is like to You in perfect |
| M:13.7 | It is this that makes it holy and beyond the world. It is its | holiness that points to God. It is its holiness that makes you safe. |
| M:13.7 | beyond the world. It is its holiness that points to God. It is its | holiness that makes you safe. It is denied if you attack any brother |
| M:14.2 | judged by His judgment. The world will end with the benediction of | holiness upon it. When not one thought of sin remains, the world is |
| M:28.5 | love behind all forms, beyond all purposes. Holy are we because His | holiness has set us free indeed, and we accept His holiness as ours, |
| M:28.5 | we because His holiness has set us free indeed, and we accept His | holiness as ours, as it is. As God created us, so will we be forever |
| M:29.8 | truly there. Holy are you, and in your light the world reflects your | holiness, for you are not alone and friendless. I give thanks for you |

| Tx:4.90 | I will go with you to the | Holy One, and through my perception, He can bridge the little gap. |
| Tx:5.3 | thanks to the Father for radiating His joy upon it. Only God's | holy Children are worthy to be channels of His beautiful joy, because |
| Tx:5.9 | This is the invitation to the | Holy Spirit. I told you that I could reach up and bring the Holy |
| Tx:5.9 | to the Holy Spirit. I told you that I could reach up and bring the | Holy Spirit down to you, but I can bring Him to you only at your own |
| Tx:5.9 | to you, but I can bring Him to you only at your own invitation. The | Holy Spirit is nothing more than your own right mind. He was also |
| Tx:5.10 | The | Holy Spirit is the only part of the Holy Trinity which is symbolic. |
| Tx:5.10 | The Holy Spirit is the only part of the | Holy Trinity which is symbolic. He is referred to in the Bible as the |
| Tx:5.10 | I will send you another comforter, and He will abide with you.” The | Holy Spirit is a difficult concept to grasp precisely because it is |
| Tx:5.10 | thinking, which came from the Universal Inspiration which is the | Holy Spirit, taught me first and foremost that this Inspiration is |
| Tx:5.11 | The word “know” is proper in this context because the | Holy Inspiration is so close to knowledge that it calls it forth; or |
| Tx:5.11 | Therefore, you can obstruct it, although you can never lose it. The | Holy Spirit is the Christ Mind, which senses the knowledge that lies |
| Tx:5.12 | they became so lofty that they could reach almost back to Him. The | Holy Spirit is the Mind of the Atonement. It represents a state of |
| Tx:5.13 | The | Holy Spirit, the shared Inspiration of all the Sonship, induces a |
| Tx:5.17 | Healing is not creating; it is reparation. The | Holy Spirit promotes healing by looking beyond it to what the |
| Tx:5.17 | to the shift in time perception which the miracle introduces. The | Holy Spirit is the motivation for miracle-mindedness, the will to |
| Tx:5.18 | is just this fusion or union of will between Father and Son. The | Holy Spirit is the spirit of joy. He is the Call to return with which |
| Tx:5.18 | being and would not have understood the call to right thinking. The | Holy Spirit was God's Answer to the separation, the means by which |
| Tx:5.19 | the other is given you by God Who asks you only to listen to it. The | Holy Spirit is in you in a very literal sense. His is the Voice that |
| Tx:5.20 | Sons are as equal as learners as they are as Souls. The Voice of the | Holy Spirit is the call to Atonement or the restoration of the |
| Tx:5.20 | will be no call to return, but what God creates is eternal. The | Holy Spirit will remain with the Sons of God to bless their creations |
| Tx:5.21 | in darkness enter your minds, and so you need a new light. The | Holy Spirit is the radiance that you must let banish the idea of |
| Tx:5.22 | broken because you had made another voice through another will. The | Holy Spirit calls you both to remember and to forget. You have chosen |
| Tx:5.22 | possible. As a result, there are choices which you must make. In the | holy state, the will is free in the sense that its creative power is |
| Tx:5.23 | but its application is different. Choosing means divided will. The | Holy Spirit is one way of choosing. This way is in you because there |
| Tx:5.23 | they put in their minds was not the voice of His Will for which the | Holy Spirit speaks. The call to return is stronger than the call to |
| Tx:5.24 | The Voice of the | Holy Spirit does not command, because it is incapable of arrogance. |
| Tx:5.25 | not know it. It is therefore lost to him until he chooses right. The | Holy Spirit is your Guide in choosing. He is the part of your mind |
| Tx:5.26 | The | Holy Spirit is the way in which God's Will can be done on earth as it |
| Tx:5.28 | world with me. Rest does not come from sleeping but from waking. The | Holy Spirit is the call to awake and be glad. The world is very |
| Tx:5.28 | waking it to the Call for God. Everyone will answer the Call of the | Holy Spirit, or the Sonship cannot be as one. What better vocation |
| Tx:5.29 | Hear only this through the | Holy Spirit within you, and teach your brothers to listen as I am |
| Tx:5.30 | is another way or another Voice. Having given this invitation to the | Holy Spirit, I could come to provide the model for how to think. |
| Tx:5.30 | but we must respond to the same mind to do this. This mind is the | Holy Spirit, whose will is for God always. He teaches you how to keep |
| Tx:5.31 | God, my message is for you to hear and give away as you answer the | Holy Spirit within you. |
| Tx:5.32 | The way to learn to know your brother is by perceiving the | Holy Spirit in him. We have already said that the Holy Spirit is the |
| Tx:5.32 | by perceiving the Holy Spirit in him. We have already said that the | Holy Spirit is the bridge or thought-transfer of perception to |
| Tx:5.32 | two ways of thinking would not be open to healing. He is part of the | Holy Trinity because His Mind is partly yours and also partly God's. |
| Tx:5.33 | The | Holy Spirit is the idea of healing. Being thought, the idea gains as |
| Tx:5.33 | idea of yourself as well as of all the parts of God. The idea of the | Holy Spirit shares the property of other ideas, because it follows |
| Tx:5.33 | be conscious to exist, your brother does not have to be aware of the | Holy Spirit either in himself or in you for this miracle to occur. |
| Tx:5.34 | also be in his, because you are perceiving him. See him through the | Holy Spirit in his mind, and you will recognize Him in yours. What |
| Tx:5.35 | The Voice of the | Holy Spirit is weak in you. That is why you must share it. It must be |
| Tx:5.35 | by being shared. If you make the mistake of looking for the | Holy Spirit in yourself alone, your meditations will frighten you |
| Tx:5.36 | and delay are meaningless in eternity. We have said before that the | Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the Holy |
| Tx:5.36 | the Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the | Holy Spirit reminds you is in direct opposition to the ego's notions, |
| Tx:5.36 | because true and false perceptions are themselves opposed. The | Holy Spirit has the task of undoing what the ego has made. He undoes |
| Tx:5.38 | The | Holy Spirit is the Mediator between the interpretations of the ego |
| Tx:5.38 | Understanding is light, and light leads to knowledge. The | Holy Spirit is in light because He is in you who are light, but you |
| Tx:5.38 | but you yourselves do not know this. It is therefore the task of the | Holy Spirit to reinterpret you on behalf of God. |
| Tx:5.39 | is your life, your eternity, and yourself. It is of this that the | Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this that the Holy Spirit sees. This |
| Tx:5.39 | It is of this that the Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this that the | Holy Spirit sees. This vision invariably frightens the ego because it |
| Tx:5.40 | The | Holy Spirit is as vigilant as the ego to the call of danger, opposing |
| Tx:5.40 | His strength, just as the ego welcomes it with all its might. The | Holy Spirit counters this welcome by welcoming peace. Peace and |
| Tx:5.41 | The ego is the symbol of separation, just as the | Holy Spirit is the symbol of peace. What you perceive in others, you |
| Tx:5.41 | strengthening in yourself. You let your mind misperceive, but the | Holy Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The |
| Tx:5.41 | Holy Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The | Holy Spirit is the perfect teacher. He uses only what your minds |
| Tx:5.41 | already understand to teach you that you do not understand it. The | Holy Spirit can deal with an unwilling learner without going counter |
| Tx:5.41 | than the ego, even though the ego does not recognize it. The | Holy Spirit recognizes it perfectly, because it is His own dwelling |
| Tx:5.42 | only in eternity. The ego made the world as it perceives it, but the | Holy Spirit, the reinterpreter of what the ego made, sees it only as |
| Tx:5.42 | made, sees it only as a teaching device for bringing you home. The | Holy Spirit must perceive time and reinterpret it into the timeless. |
| Tx:5.43 | The | Holy Spirit must work through opposites, because He must work with |
| Tx:5.43 | have not made truth, but truth can still set you free. Look as the | Holy Spirit looks, and understand as He understands. His |
| Tx:5.43 | His understanding looks back to God in remembrance of me. He is in | Holy Communion always, and He is part of you. He is your Guide to |
| Tx:5.45 | They are beyond destruction and beyond guilt. They came from the | Holy Spirit within you, and we know what God creates is eternal. What |
| Tx:5.46 | can safely fail to acknowledge anything that is true. However, the | Holy Spirit will not fail to help you reinterpret everything that you |
| Tx:5.47 | of the Kingdom. Nothing good is lost because it comes from the | Holy Spirit, the Voice for creation. Nothing that is not good was |
| Tx:5.53 | attraction of the parts of the Sonship, which hear the call of the | Holy Spirit to be as One. |
| Tx:5.54 | and the mind which was in me rejoices as you choose to hear it. The | Holy Spirit atones in all of us by undoing and thus lifts the burden |
| Tx:5.56 | at the same level. It is impossible to share opposing thoughts. The | Holy Spirit does not let you forsake your brothers. Therefore, you |
| Tx:5.57 | of God lacks nothing. Everything you think that is not through the | Holy Spirit is lacking. |
| Tx:5.58 | How can you who are so | holy suffer? All your past except its beauty is gone, and nothing is |
| Tx:5.59 | ego's use of guilt is clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the | Holy Spirit has. The ego's purpose is fear because only the fearful |
| Tx:5.59 | can be egotistic. The ego's logic is as impeccable as that of the | Holy Spirit, because your mind has all the means at its disposal to |
| Tx:5.59 | appropriate here because, once what you have made is undone by the | Holy Spirit, the blessed residue is restored and therefore continues |
| Tx:5.67 | The | Holy Spirit, like the ego, is a decision. Together they constitute |
| Tx:5.67 | the alternatives which the mind can accept and obey. The ego and the | Holy Spirit are the only choices open to you. God created one, and so |
| Tx:5.73 | was in me is in you, for God creates with perfect fairness. Let the | Holy Spirit remind you always of His fairness, and let me teach you |
| Tx:5.74 | The ego speaks in judgment and the | Holy Spirit reverses its decisions, much as the Supreme Court has the |
| Tx:5.75 | wicked shall perish.” There are many others, but if you will let the | Holy Spirit reinterpret these in His own light, they will suffice. |
| Tx:5.76 | the fact that vengeance cannot be shared. Give it therefore to the | Holy Spirit, who will undo it in you because it does not belong in |
| Tx:5.77 | beyond itself. Actually, all the quotation means is that the | Holy Spirit in later generations retains the power to interpret |
| Tx:5.82 | device which will be abolished when it is no longer useful. The | Holy Spirit, Who speaks for God in time, also knows that time is |
| Tx:5.83 | set) on Him,” a statement which means that God's peace is set in the | Holy Spirit because it is fixed on God. It is also fixed in you. You, |
| Tx:5.85 | is the pull of God, on whom your mind is fixed because of the | Holy Spirit's irrevocable set. “Irrevocable” means “cannot be called |
| Tx:5.85 | “cannot be called back or redirected.” The irrevocable nature of the | Holy Spirit's set is the basis for His unequivocal Voice. The Holy |
| Tx:5.85 | of the Holy Spirit's set is the basis for His unequivocal Voice. The | Holy Spirit never changes His Mind. Clarity of thought cannot occur |
| Tx:5.87 | Second, although Freud misinterpreted what the | Holy Spirit told him, or better, reminded him of, he was too honest |
| Tx:5.93 | for everything you have made which is not in accord with His | holy Will. I have made His plan perfectly explicit to you and have |
| Tx:5.95 | the following as sincerely as you can, remembering that the | Holy Spirit will respond fully to your slightest invitation: |
| Tx:5.96 | because I want to be at peace. I do not feel guilty, because the | Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences of my wrong decision if I |
| Tx:6.13 | as learners, even though we need not have equal experiences. The | Holy Spirit is glad when you can learn enough from mine to be |
| Tx:6.14 | on to sacrifice. On the contrary, by enabling yourselves to hear the | Holy Spirit in others, you can learn from their experiences and gain |
| Tx:6.14 | from them without experiencing them yourselves. That is because the | Holy Spirit is one, and anyone who listens is inevitably led to |
| Tx:6.14 | nor was I. You are not asked to repeat my experiences, because the | Holy Spirit, Whom we share, makes this unnecessary. To use my |
| Tx:6.15 | that no perception which is out of accord with the judgment of the | Holy Spirit can be justified. I undertook to show this was true in a |
| Tx:6.16 | Remember that the | Holy Spirit is the communication link between God the Father and His |
| Tx:6.28 | its abilities are directed by the mind which has a better Voice. The | Holy Spirit as well as the ego utilizes projection, but since their |
| Tx:6.29 | The | Holy Spirit begins by perceiving you as perfect. Knowing this |
| Tx:6.29 | for both because it establishes inclusion. Perceiving equality, the | Holy Spirit perceives equal needs. This invites Atonement |
| Tx:6.31 | The perfect equality of the | Holy Spirit's perception is the counterpart of the perfect equality |
| Tx:6.31 | knowing. The ego's perception has no counterpart in God, but the | Holy Spirit remains the bridge between perception and knowledge. By |
| Tx:6.31 | that this meeting is impossible, yet it is your perception which the | Holy Spirit guides. You might remember that the human eye perceives |
| Tx:6.32 | other, because they were created neither partially nor in part. The | Holy Spirit enables you to perceive this wholeness now. You can no |
| Tx:6.32 | alone. Prayer is the restatement of inclusion, directed by the | Holy Spirit under the laws of God. God created you to create. You |
| Tx:6.33 | Although perception of any kind is unnecessary, you made it, and the | Holy Spirit can therefore use it well. He can inspire perception and |
| Tx:6.34 | The | Holy Spirit uses time but does not believe in it. Coming from God, He |
| Tx:6.34 | for good, but He does not believe in what is not true. Since the | Holy Spirit is in your minds, your minds must also be able to believe |
| Tx:6.34 | your minds must also be able to believe only what is true. The | Holy Spirit can speak only for this because he speaks for God. He |
| Tx:6.35 | because it can so easily make the idea seem so difficult. Yet the | Holy Spirit tells you that even return is unnecessary because what |
| Tx:6.36 | all of your perceptions into the one parallel line which the | Holy Spirit sees. This line is the direct line of communication with |
| Tx:6.36 | perception, because it means that all perception is guided by the | Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the Holy Spirit can |
| Tx:6.36 | is guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the | Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:6.36 | on God. Only the Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the | Holy Spirit is conflict-free. He perceives only what is true in your |
| Tx:6.37 | difference between the ego's use of projection and projection as the | Holy Spirit uses it is very simple. The ego projects to exclude and |
| Tx:6.37 | simple. The ego projects to exclude and therefore to deceive. The | Holy Spirit projects by recognizing Himself in every mind and thus |
| Tx:6.37 | them as one. Nothing conflicts in this perception, because what the | Holy Spirit perceives is the same. Wherever He looks He sees Himself, |
| Tx:6.38 | mind forever, but it must shine outward to make you aware of it. The | Holy Spirit was given you with perfect impartiality, and only by |
| Tx:6.38 | impartially can you perceive Him at all. The ego is legion, but the | Holy Spirit is One. No darkness abides anywhere in the Kingdom, but |
| Tx:6.40 | The | Holy Spirit still holds knowledge safe through His impartial |
| Tx:6.41 | you are to be conflict-free yourselves, you must learn only from the | Holy Spirit and teach only by Him. You are only love, but when you |
| Tx:6.42 | The only real safety lies in projecting only the | Holy Spirit because, as you see His gentleness in others, your own |
| Tx:6.45 | Remember that the | Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the question. The ego always speaks |
| Tx:6.45 | it at any moment. If it meant you well, it would be glad, as the | Holy Spirit will be glad when He has brought you home and you no |
| Tx:6.47 | you fully understand one basic fact that the ego does not know. The | Holy Spirit does not speak first, but He always answers. Everyone has |
| Tx:6.47 | another and in one way or another and has been answered. Since the | Holy Spirit answers truly, He answers for all time, which means that |
| Tx:6.48 | The ego cannot hear the | Holy Spirit, but it does believe that part of the same mind that made |
| Tx:6.50 | Hear then the one answer of the | Holy Spirit to all the questions which the ego raises. You are a |
| Tx:6.55 | That is why the | Holy Spirit never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which |
| Tx:6.55 | Spirit never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which the | Holy Spirit demonstrates does not exist. Fidelity to premises is a |
| Tx:6.57 | Like any good teacher, the | Holy Spirit does know more than you do now, but He teaches only to |
| Tx:6.60 | The | Holy Spirit never itemizes errors because He does not frighten |
| Tx:6.60 | they are frightened, because they do not know the difference. The | Holy Spirit makes no distinction among dreams. He merely shines them |
| Tx:6.60 | you have been dreaming. Nothing lasting lies in dreams, and the | Holy Spirit, shining with the light from God Himself, speaks only for |
| Tx:6.62 | It is clearly a separation device and therefore does not exist. The | Holy Spirit, as always, takes what you have made and translates it |
| Tx:6.63 | We have said that the | Holy Spirit is the motivation for miracles. This is because He always |
| Tx:6.63 | By the laws of mind, then, the body is meaningless. To the | Holy Spirit, there is no order of difficulty in miracles. This is |
| Tx:6.65 | The | Holy Spirit, who leads to God, translates communication into being, |
| Tx:6.65 | The insanity of this perception makes it a fearful one indeed. The | Holy Spirit sees the body only as a means of communication and |
| Tx:6.66 | allegiance but always for what each one can get separately. The | Holy Spirit communicates only what each one can give to all. He never |
| Tx:6.72 | then, is the undoing of the getting concept. Accordingly, the | Holy Spirit's first lesson was “to have, give all to all.” We said |
| Tx:6.74 | of mind in the thinker. Meanwhile, the increasing clarity of the | Holy Spirit's Voice makes it impossible for the learner not to |
| Tx:6.76 | you that it is up to you to decide which voice is true, but the | Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created by God, and your |
| Tx:6.76 | cannot change it. As you begin to realize the quiet power of the | Holy Spirit's Voice and its perfect consistency, it must dawn on your |
| Tx:6.76 | before that there was help in reminding yourselves to allow the | Holy Spirit to decide for God for you. |
| Tx:6.77 | believe that it is up to you to decide what God's creations are. The | Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is. Therefore, His |
| Tx:6.81 | accepted that is a demonstration of your growing awareness that the | Holy Spirit will lead you on. |
| Tx:6.82 | salvation is critical to the whole Sonship. We said before that the | Holy Spirit is evaluative and must be. Yet His evaluation does not |
| Tx:6.83 | What you must remember, however, is that what the | Holy Spirit rejects, the ego accepts. This is because they are in |
| Tx:6.83 | crucial issue vary, and that is why it promotes different moods. The | Holy Spirit never varies on this point, and so the one mood He |
| Tx:6.84 | The | Holy Spirit does not teach your mind to be critical of other minds, |
| Tx:6.84 | established what you can project with perfect safety. Therefore, the | Holy Spirit's third lesson is: |
| Tx:6.88 | that you can choose either one. By teaching what to choose, the | Holy Spirit will ultimately be able to teach you that you need not |
| Tx:6.88 | direct it towards creation within the Kingdom. Choosing through the | Holy Spirit will lead you to the Kingdom. You create by what you are, |
| Tx:6.89 | step will still be taken for you by God, but by the third step the | Holy Spirit has prepared you for God. He is getting you ready for the |
| Tx:6.95 | second step, but I also told you that the third one follows it. The | Holy Spirit will enable you to go on if you follow Him. Your |
| Tx:7.6 | Him is to share the perfect love He shares with you. To this the | Holy Spirit leads you that your joy may be complete, because the |
| Tx:7.6 | and nothing that is true needs to be explained. However, the | Holy Spirit has the task of translating the useless into the useful, |
| Tx:7.7 | a time concept. He is first in the sense that He is the first in the | Holy Trinity itself. He is the Prime Creator, because He created His |
| Tx:7.10 | is to correct perception in your brother and yourself by sharing the | Holy Spirit with him. This places you both within the Kingdom and |
| Tx:7.15 | is to change the form so that the original meaning is retained. The | Holy Spirit is the translator of the laws of God to those who do not |
| Tx:7.16 | The | Holy Spirit's purpose in translating is naturally exactly the |
| Tx:7.17 | it cannot be consistent unless it is remembered. That is why the | Holy Spirit is a lesson in remembering. We said before that He |
| Tx:7.22 | defeat its purpose. Therefore, it does not really learn at all. The | Holy Spirit teaches you to use what the ego has made to teach the |
| Tx:7.22 | applied to the learning. You could not have a better example of the | Holy Spirit's unified purpose than this course. The Holy Spirit has |
| Tx:7.22 | example of the Holy Spirit's unified purpose than this course. The | Holy Spirit has taken very diversified areas of your learning and has |
| Tx:7.23 | You made the effort to learn, and the | Holy Spirit has a unified goal for all effort. He adapts the ego's |
| Tx:7.24 | to be no connection, because the ego is discontinuous. Yet the | Holy Spirit teaches one lesson and applies it to all individuals in |
| Tx:7.30 | to question reality is to question meaninglessly. That is why the | Holy Spirit never questions. His sole function is to undo the |
| Tx:7.34 | The | Holy Spirit must work through you to teach you He is in you. This is |
| Tx:7.34 | you are in God, because you are part of Him. The miracles which the | Holy Spirit inspires can have no order of difficulty, because every |
| Tx:7.34 | is God's Will and yours. The laws of God establish this, and the | Holy Spirit reminds you of it. When you heal, you are remembering the |
| Tx:7.35 | All abilities, then, should be given over to the | Holy Spirit, Who knows how to use them properly. He can use them only |
| Tx:7.35 | wholeness you learn to remember God. You have forgotten Him, but the | Holy Spirit still knows that your forgetting must be translated into |
| Tx:7.36 | The ego's goal is as unified as the | Holy Spirit's, and it is because of this that their goals can never |
| Tx:7.36 | or to any extent. The ego always seeks to divide and separate. The | Holy Spirit always seeks to unify and heal. As you heal you are |
| Tx:7.36 | seeks to unify and heal. As you heal you are healed, because the | Holy Spirit sees no order of healing. Healing is the way to undo the |
| Tx:7.38 | not recognizing its existence in your brothers. This strengthens the | Holy Spirit in both of you, because it is a refusal to acknowledge |
| Tx:7.39 | matter are so apparent that they need no elaboration here, but the | Holy Spirit's decision to use the body only for communication has |
| Tx:7.41 | can develop and must develop if he is to be healed. Healing is the | Holy Spirit's form of communication and the only one He knows. He |
| Tx:7.44 | The | Holy Spirit does not work by chance, and healing that is of Him |
| Tx:7.48 | he could not have changed his mind. That is how you perceive the | Holy Spirit in him. It is only the Holy Spirit in him that never |
| Tx:7.48 | That is how you perceive the Holy Spirit in him. It is only the | Holy Spirit in him that never changes His Mind. He himself must think |
| Tx:7.51 | is to share nothing. [Would I try to share an illusion with the most | holy children of a most holy Father?] Yet I do want to share my mind |
| Tx:7.51 | I try to share an illusion with the most holy children of a most | holy Father?] Yet I do want to share my mind with you, because we are |
| Tx:7.54 | reciprocal. They make or create, depending on whether the ego or the | Holy Spirit begets or inspires them, but they will return to the mind |
| Tx:7.60 | The | Holy Spirit undoes illusions without attacking them merely because He |
| Tx:7.60 | by perceiving conflict as meaningless. We said before that the | Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is, and it is |
| Tx:7.60 | perceives the conflict exactly as it is, and it is meaningless. The | Holy Spirit does not want you to understand conflict; He wants you to |
| Tx:7.61 | If you will keep in mind what the | Holy Spirit offers you, you cannot be vigilant for anything but God |
| Tx:7.61 | which are not true and would never have been called upon by the | Holy Spirit if you had not believed the untrue. You cannot deny that, |
| Tx:7.64 | committed to untruth, perceiving in total contradiction to the | Holy Spirit and to the knowledge of God. |
| Tx:7.65 | You can be perceived with meaning only by the | Holy Spirit, because your being is the knowledge of God. Any belief |
| Tx:7.68 | In this depressing state, the | Holy Spirit reminds you gently that you are sad because you are not |
| Tx:7.68 | is unchangeable, no real conflict of will is possible. This is the | Holy Spirit's perfectly consistent teaching. |
| Tx:7.71 | because it will be used for attack, but in the service of the | Holy Spirit, [the law becomes as beneficent as all of the laws of |
| Tx:7.82 | as a way of getting rid of something it does not want. To the | Holy Spirit, it is the fundamental law of sharing by which you give |
| Tx:7.83 | Projection, to the | Holy Spirit, is the law of extension. To the ego, it is the law of |
| Tx:7.88 | the errors as yours, do not keep them. Give them over quickly to the | Holy Spirit to be undone completely so that all their effects will |
| Tx:7.89 | The | Holy Spirit will teach you to perceive beyond belief, because truth |
| Tx:7.91 | is of the Soul, because that is how God created it. The | Holy Spirit is the part of the mind that lies between the ego and the |
| Tx:7.95 | unknown to them. Your creations are protected for you, because the | Holy Spirit, Who is in your mind, knows of them and can bring them |
| Tx:7.100 | His Will as yours, and you are denying His Kingdom and yours. The | Holy Spirit will direct you only so as to avoid pain. The undoing of |
| Tx:7.100 | this goal if he recognized it. The problem is not whether what the | Holy Spirit says is true, but whether you want to listen to what He |
| Tx:7.101 | know what is joyful and are in fact very apt to confuse the two. The | Holy Spirit's main function is to teach you to tell them apart. |
| Tx:7.101 | This confusion is the cause of the whole idea of sacrifice. Obey the | Holy Spirit, and you will be giving up the ego. But you will be |
| Tx:7.103 | The | Holy Spirit always sides with you and with your strength. As long as |
| Tx:7.103 | then, can this decision mean except that you want to be fearful? The | Holy Spirit never asks for sacrifice, but the ego always does. When |
| Tx:7.104 | of this decision is confusion, this is hardly surprising.] The | Holy Spirit is perfectly trustworthy, as you are. God Himself trusts |
| Tx:7.107 | The | Holy Spirit will always guide you truly, because your joy is His. |
| Tx:7.110 | has become the perfect teacher, because he has learned it of the | Holy Spirit, Who wants to teach him everything He knows. When a mind |
| Tx:8.8 | confused and totally confusing. Even if you could disregard the | Holy Spirit entirely, which is quite impossible, you could learn |
| Tx:8.10 | Will with you. His Voice teaches only His Will, but that is not the | Holy Spirit's lesson because that is what you are. The lesson is that |
| Tx:8.11 | freedom and makes you afraid of your will because it is free. The | Holy Spirit opposes any imprisoning of the will of a Son of God, |
| Tx:8.11 | a Son of God, knowing that the will of the Son is the Father's. The | Holy Spirit leads you steadily along the path of freedom, teaching |
| Tx:8.12 | We said before that the | Holy Spirit teaches you the difference between pain and joy. That is |
| Tx:8.13 | The | Holy Spirit's teaching takes only one direction and has only one |
| Tx:8.15 | To what else except all power and glory can the | Holy Spirit appeal to restore God's Kingdom? His appeal, then, is |
| Tx:8.17 | be forced upon you, being an experience of total willingness. The | Holy Spirit knows how to teach this, but you do not. That is why you |
| Tx:8.18 | Fatherhood must be extended outward. You who belong in God have the | holy function of extending His Fatherhood by placing no limits upon |
| Tx:8.18 | of extending His Fatherhood by placing no limits upon it. Let the | Holy Spirit teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means |
| Tx:8.19 | When you meet anyone, remember it is a | holy encounter. As you see him, you will see yourself. As you treat |
| Tx:8.20 | find them in yourself, because it does not know where to look. The | Holy Spirit teaches you that if you look only at yourself, you cannot |
| Tx:8.22 | someone else, you had thought that he was someone else. And every | holy encounter in which you enter fully will teach you this is not so. |
| Tx:8.23 | from them. The ego teaches that your strength is in you alone. The | Holy Spirit teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you. |
| Tx:8.35 | The | Holy Trinity is holy, because it is one. If you exclude yourself from |
| Tx:8.35 | The Holy Trinity is | holy, because it is one. If you exclude yourself from this union, you |
| Tx:8.35 | one. If you exclude yourself from this union, you are perceiving the | Holy Trinity as separated. You must be included in It, because It is |
| Tx:8.38 | As we unite, we unite with Him. Glory be to the union of God and His | holy Sons! All glory lies in them because they are united. The |
| Tx:8.41 | The ego's way is not mine, but it is also not yours. The | Holy Spirit has one direction for all minds, and the one He taught me |
| Tx:8.42 | The world can add nothing to the power and the glory of God and His | holy Sons, but it can blind the Sons to the Father if they behold it. |
| Tx:8.45 | your creations as He wants His. Your creations are your gift to the | Holy Trinity, created in gratitude for your creation. They do not |
| Tx:8.50 | Our creations are as | holy as we are, and we are the Sons of God Himself and therefore as |
| Tx:8.50 | holy as we are, and we are the Sons of God Himself and therefore as | holy as He is. Through our creations, we extend our love and thus |
| Tx:8.50 | our creations, we extend our love and thus increase the joy of the | Holy Trinity. You do not understand this for a very simple reason. |
| Tx:8.52 | beloved of God are wholly blessed. Learn this of me, and free the | holy will of all those who are as blessed as you are. |
| Tx:8.54 | Remember that the | Holy Spirit interprets the body only as a means of communication. |
| Tx:8.54 | Being the communication link between God and His separated Sons, the | Holy Spirit interprets everything you have made in the light of what |
| Tx:8.54 | in the light of what He is. The ego separates through the body. The | Holy Spirit reaches through it to others. You do not perceive your |
| Tx:8.54 | through it to others. You do not perceive your brothers as the | Holy Spirit does, because you do not interpret their bodies and yours |
| Tx:8.55 | is. This is God's way of making unlimited what you have limited. The | Holy Spirit does not see the body as you do, because He knows the |
| Tx:8.56 | ends separation. Attack promotes it. The body is beautiful or ugly, | holy or savage, helpful or harmful, according to the use to which it |
| Tx:8.56 | put yours. If the body becomes for you a means which you give to the | Holy Spirit to use on behalf of union of the Sonship, you will not |
| Tx:8.56 | already done so by misusing it. Interpret anything apart from the | Holy Spirit, and you will mistrust it. This will lead you to hatred |
| Tx:8.57 | in littleness and thus escape from yours. As part of you, he is | holy. As part of me, you are. To communicate with part of God Himself |
| Tx:8.58 | power and glory for you, with which you can perfectly accomplish His | holy will for you when you so will it yourself. He has not withdrawn |
| Tx:8.59 | it can be put. To use the body unnaturally is to lose sight of the | Holy Spirit's purpose and thus to confuse the goal of His curriculum. |
| Tx:8.60 | world. In fact, it is ultimately why the world is depressing. The | Holy Spirit's curriculum is never depressing, because it is a |
| Tx:8.61 | to be ruled by chaos. Guided by the ego, it is. Guided by the | Holy Spirit, it is not. It becomes only a means by which the part of |
| Tx:8.61 | return to the Soul. The ego's temple thus becomes the temple of the | Holy Spirit, where devotion to Him replaces devotion to the ego. In |
| Tx:8.74 | call upon witnesses who would disagree with its case, nor does the | Holy Spirit. We have said that judgment is the function of the Holy |
| Tx:8.74 | the Holy Spirit. We have said that judgment is the function of the | Holy Spirit and one which He is perfectly equipped to fulfill. The |
| Tx:8.76 | endless prescriptions for avoiding catastrophic outcomes. The | Holy Spirit, perfectly aware of the same data, does not bother to |
| Tx:8.78 | except truth. When you lay the ego aside, it will be gone. The | Holy Spirit's Voice is as loud as your willingness to listen. It |
| Tx:8.78 | listen. It cannot be louder without violating your will, which the | Holy Spirit seeks to free but never to command. |
| Tx:8.79 | The | Holy Spirit teaches you to use your body only to reach your brothers, |
| Tx:8.79 | heal you. Everything used in accordance with its function as the | Holy Spirit sees it cannot be sick. Everything used otherwise is. Do |
| Tx:8.79 | is the natural state of anything whose interpretation is left to the | Holy Spirit, Who perceives no attack on anything. Health is the |
| Tx:8.80 | We once said that the | Holy Spirit is the Answer. He is the Answer to everything, because He |
| Tx:8.80 | its questions. When the ego tempts you to sickness, do not ask the | Holy Spirit to heal the body, for this would merely be to accept the |
| Tx:8.80 | that the body is the proper aim for healing. Ask rather that the | Holy Spirit teach you the right perception of the body, for |
| Tx:8.82 | what joining means if you are sleeping under its guidance. Yet the | Holy Spirit, too, has use for sleep and can use dreams on behalf of |
| Tx:8.83 | did you place it? Whenever you wake dispiritedly, it was not of the | Holy Spirit. Only when you awaken joyously have you utilized sleep |
| Tx:8.83 | when you awaken joyously have you utilized sleep according to the | Holy Spirit's purpose. You can indeed be “drugged by sleep,” but this |
| Tx:8.84 | to love, since all healing involves replacing fear with love. The | Holy Spirit cannot distinguish among degrees of error, for if He |
| Tx:8.89 | The unification of purpose, then, is the | Holy Spirit's only way of healing. This is because it is the only |
| Tx:8.93 | it remains available but cannot help you. When we said that the | Holy Spirit's function is to sort out the true from the false in your |
| Tx:8.94 | process can only be what you think you lose. Yet it is only what the | Holy Spirit sees that you can possibly have. We have emphasized many |
| Tx:8.94 | that you can possibly have. We have emphasized many times that the | Holy Spirit will never call upon you to sacrifice anything. But if |
| Tx:8.94 | anything. But if you ask the sacrifice of reality of yourselves, the | Holy Spirit must remind you that this is not God's Will because it is |
| Tx:8.95 | this is precisely what you will ask for. You may insist that the | Holy Spirit does not answer you, but it might be wiser to consider |
| Tx:8.98 | but it is still true that they do not want them. Can you ask the | Holy Spirit for “gifts” such as these and actually expect to receive |
| Tx:8.98 | for “gifts” such as these and actually expect to receive them? [The | Holy Spirit is totally incapable of giving you anything that does not |
| Tx:8.100 | When you ask the | Holy Spirit for what would hurt you, He cannot answer, because |
| Tx:8.100 | not a request. It is merely a denial in the form of a request. The | Holy Spirit is not concerned with form at all, being aware only of |
| Tx:8.100 | form at all, being aware only of meaning. The ego cannot ask the | Holy Spirit for anything because there is complete communication |
| Tx:8.100 | failure between them. Yet you can ask for everything of the | Holy Spirit because your requests are real, being of your will. Would |
| Tx:8.100 | Spirit because your requests are real, being of your will. Would the | Holy Spirit deny the Will of God? And could He fail to recognize it |
| Tx:8.108 | Let us suppose, then, that what you request of the | Holy Spirit is what you really want, but you are still afraid of it. |
| Tx:8.109 | be true if no effort is wasted. The very fact that one has asked the | Holy Spirit for anything will ensure a response. Yet it is equally |
| Tx:8.109 | a response. Yet it is equally certain that no response given by the | Holy Spirit will ever be one which would increase fear. It is |
| Tx:8.110 | in me whose faith in you cannot be shaken. Can you ask of the | Holy Spirit truly and doubt your brother? Believe his words are true |
| Tx:8.111 | about him determines the message you receive. Remember that the | Holy Spirit is in him, and His Voice speaks to you through him. What |
| Tx:8.111 | is in him, and His Voice speaks to you through him. What can so | holy a brother tell you except truth? But are you listening to it? |
| Tx:8.111 | his words true and making you able to hear them. His words are the | Holy Spirit's answer to you. Is your faith in him strong enough to |
| Tx:8.112 | Salvation is of your brother. The | Holy Spirit extends from your mind to his and answers you. You cannot |
| Tx:8.112 | in you unless you extend it. You will not trust the guidance of the | Holy Spirit or believe that it is for you unless you hear it in |
| Tx:8.113 | me. Knowing what you are, I cannot doubt you. I hear only the | Holy Spirit in you, who speaks to me through you. If you would hear |
| Tx:8.118 | You can ask of the | Holy Spirit, then, only by giving to Him, and you can give to Him |
| Tx:9.1 | to the errors which other egos make is not the kind of vigilance the | Holy Spirit would have you maintain. Egos are critical in terms of |
| Tx:9.1 | understand this kind of sense because it is sensible to them. To the | Holy Spirit, it makes no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and |
| Tx:9.3 | of your brother's ego, you must be seeing through yours, because the | Holy Spirit does not perceive his errors. This must be true if there |
| Tx:9.3 | be true if there is no communication at all between the ego and the | Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not |
| Tx:9.3 | between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the | Holy Spirit does not attempt to understand anything that arises from |
| Tx:9.4 | When you react at all to errors, you are not listening to the | Holy Spirit. He has merely disregarded them, and if you attend to |
| Tx:9.5 | them, you are accepting yours. If you want to give yours over to the | Holy Spirit, you must do this with his. Unless this becomes the one |
| Tx:9.7 | and keep it, see only truth beside you, for you walk together. The | Holy Spirit in you forgives all things in you and in your brother. |
| Tx:9.7 | the ego. Correction is of God, Who does not know of arrogance. The | Holy Spirit forgives everything, because God created everything. |
| Tx:9.8 | learn to want this, and for this all learning was made. This is the | Holy Spirit's good use of an ability which you do not need, but which |
| Tx:9.11 | which is given you because you have forgotten how to do it. The | Holy Spirit merely reminds you of what is your natural ability. By |
| Tx:9.11 | in its judgment. All their helpfulness lies in the judgment of the | Holy Spirit. |
| Tx:9.14 | Forgiveness through the | Holy Spirit lies simply in looking beyond error from the beginning |
| Tx:9.14 | order to be forgiven. What has no effect does not exist, and to the | Holy Spirit, the effects of error are totally non-existent. By |
| Tx:9.15 | Miracles are merely the sign of your willingness to follow the | Holy Spirit's plan of salvation in recognition of the fact that you |
| Tx:9.23 | as unhelpful as the older ones, because form does not matter to the | Holy Spirit and therefore does not matter at all. According to the |
| Tx:9.23 | is equated with the mind, the mind's corrective power through the | Holy Spirit is denied. |
| Tx:9.28 | not of him. Yet, being for him, it must also be for his patient. The | Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He makes healing perfectly clear |
| Tx:9.29 | As you awaken other minds to the | Holy Spirit through Him and not yourself, you will understand that |
| Tx:9.31 | How can you become increasingly aware of the | Holy Spirit in you except by His effects? You cannot see Him with |
| Tx:9.32 | It seems to you that the | Holy Spirit does not produce joy consistently in you only because you |
| Tx:9.35 | are not yet awake, but you can learn how to awaken. Very simply the | Holy Spirit teaches you to awaken others. As you see them waken, you |
| Tx:9.40 | It is perfectly obvious that if the | Holy Spirit looks with love on all He perceives, He looks with love |
| Tx:9.40 | there. Its evaluation of you, however, is the exact opposite of the | Holy Spirit's, because the ego does not love you. It is unaware of |
| Tx:9.41 | these evaluations are, because you do not understand how lofty the | Holy Spirit's perception of you really is. He is not deceived by |
| Tx:9.41 | ego is deceived by everything you do, even when you respond to the | Holy Spirit, because at such times its confusion increases. The ego |
| Tx:9.44 | from beyond it, because, within it, its foundation does stand. The | Holy Spirit judges against the reality of the ego's thought system |
| Tx:9.44 | not true. Therefore, nothing that arises from it means anything. The | Holy Spirit judges every belief you hold in terms of where it comes |
| Tx:9.56 | What good can come of it? And if no good can come of it, the | Holy Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot transform to the Will of |
| Tx:9.58 | it or prevail over it. It does not vary. It merely is. Ask the | Holy Spirit what it is and He will tell you, but do not be afraid of |
| Tx:9.60 | if you are God's only creation, and He created you eternal? Your | holy will establishes everything that happens to you. Every response |
| Tx:9.61 | for your self so you could be like Him. That is why your will is | holy. Can anything exceed the love of God? Can anything, then, exceed |
| Tx:9.66 | with neither? You do not remember being awake. When you hear the | Holy Spirit, you merely feel better because loving seems possible to |
| Tx:9.69 | this decision lie joy and peace and the glory of creation. Offer the | Holy Spirit only your will to remember, for He retains the knowledge |
| Tx:9.91 | is the recognition that his brother can do it. It is a call to the | Holy Spirit in his mind, a call to Him which is strengthened by this |
| Tx:10.5 | upon it but will be blessed by Him, for you will be restoring the | holy dwelling place of His Son, where He wills His Son to be and |
| Tx:10.12 | is merely because it is yours. You do not know what it is, but the | Holy Spirit remembers it for you. Ask Him, therefore, what God's Will |
| Tx:10.12 | be too often repeated that you do not know it. Whenever what the | Holy Spirit tells you appears to be coercive, it is only because you |
| Tx:10.15 | You are asked to trust the | Holy Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is the Voice for God, |
| Tx:10.19 | whole. And this willingness opens his own ears to the Voice of the | Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He will enable you to go far |
| Tx:10.20 | The | Holy Spirit cannot speak to an unwelcoming host because He will not |
| Tx:10.22 | is not real freedom, for it still depends on how you see it. The | Holy Spirit is there, although He cannot help you without your |
| Tx:10.29 | that you may enter the temple and find it waiting for you. But be | holy in the Presence of God, or you will not know that you are there. |
| Tx:10.50 | can be accomplished, and God's purpose can not. According to the | Holy Spirit's teaching, only God's purpose is accomplishment, and it |
| Tx:10.53 | The ego analyzes; the | Holy Spirit accepts. The appreciation of wholeness comes only through |
| Tx:10.54 | of perception are, and would have to be, the exact opposite of the | Holy Spirit's. The ego focuses on error and overlooks truth. It makes |
| Tx:10.73 | because it is His Will to be known. The real world is all that the | Holy Spirit has saved for you out of what you have made, and to |
| Tx:10.75 | what you perceive, for its meaning is lost to you. Yet the | Holy Spirit has saved its meaning for you, and if you will let Him |
| Tx:10.80 | than to be told very clearly that if you ask you will receive. The | Holy Spirit will answer every specific problem as long as you believe |
| Tx:10.81 | that asking is taking, and you do not perceive it as sharing. The | Holy Spirit will give you only what is yours and will take nothing in |
| Tx:10.81 | and you share it with God. This is its reality. Would the | Holy Spirit, Who wills only to restore, be capable of misinterpreting |
| Tx:10.82 | the question. You have believed that to ask for guidance of the | Holy Spirit is to ask for deprivation. Little Children of God, you do |
| Tx:10.87 | and are condemning God's Son, whom God condemneth not. Let the | Holy Spirit remove all offense of God's Son against himself and |
| Tx:10.90 | only in yourself. Yet you can learn the truth of yourself of the | Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as part of God, deceit in you |
| Tx:11.3 | of all motivation that makes any sense. And because it is the | Holy Spirit's judgment, it requires no effort at all on your part. |
| Tx:11.6 | him your help, and you will not perceive God's answer to you. The | Holy Spirit does not need your help in interpreting motivation, but |
| Tx:11.9 | By applying the | Holy Spirit's interpretation of the reactions of others more and more |
| Tx:11.9 | the recognition is necessary to demonstrate the need for escape. The | Holy Spirit must still translate it into truth. If you were left with |
| Tx:11.9 | as a crucial step in the undoing of the ego. Consider how well the | Holy Spirit's interpretation of the motives of others will serve you |
| Tx:11.13 | of its reality than by answering the appeal for it by giving it? The | Holy Spirit's interpretation of fear does dispel it, for the |
| Tx:11.13 | it, for the awareness of truth cannot be denied. Thus does the | Holy Spirit replace fear with love and translate error into truth. |
| Tx:11.22 | it, for to lay aside means to judge against. If you will look, the | Holy Spirit will judge and will judge truly. He cannot shine away |
| Tx:11.23 | and carefully planned program aimed at learning how to offer to the | Holy Spirit everything you do not want. He knows what to do with it. |
| Tx:11.35 | your investment in the world as you have projected it, allowing the | Holy Spirit to project the real world to you from the altar of God. |
| Tx:11.39 | to find is hardly joyous. Is this the promise you would keep? The | Holy Spirit offers you another promise, and one that will lead to |
| Tx:11.40 | within yourself, for you do not believe your home is there. Yet the | Holy Spirit knows it for you, and He will guide you to your home |
| Tx:11.42 | awaits only the recognition that you have been redeemed. The | Holy Spirit guides you into life eternal, but you must relinquish |
| Tx:11.46 | The | Holy Spirit's love is your strength, for yours is divided and |
| Tx:11.53 | to teach you how to gain the whole world and lose your own Soul. The | Holy Spirit teaches that you cannot lose your Soul and there is no |
| Tx:11.54 | The | Holy Spirit is your strength because He perceives nothing but your |
| Tx:11.55 | the world real unto yourself, for the real world is the gift of the | Holy Spirit, and so it belongs to you. |
| Tx:11.56 | is for all who cannot see. To open the eyes of the blind is the | Holy Spirit's mission, for He knows that they have not lost their |
| Tx:11.57 | The | Holy Spirit keeps the vision of Christ for every Son of God who |
| Tx:11.57 | in himself. For reality is one with the Father and the Son, and the | Holy Spirit blesses the real world in Their Name. |
| Tx:11.58 | holding out the Father's love to you in the quiet light of the | Holy Spirit's blessing. For the Holy Spirit will lead everyone home |
| Tx:11.58 | to you in the quiet light of the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the | Holy Spirit will lead everyone home to his Father, where Christ waits |
| Tx:11.59 | which He knows because He knows His Father's love for Him. When the | Holy Spirit has at last led you to Christ at the altar to His Father, |
| Tx:11.59 | perception fuses into knowledge because perception has become so | holy that its transfer to holiness is merely its natural extension. |
| Tx:11.59 | elements in all situations, the transfer of your training under the | Holy Spirit's guidance increases and becomes generalized. Gradually |
| Tx:11.60 | is the reinstatement of knowledge. At the altar of God, the | holy perception of God's Son becomes so enlightened that light |
| Tx:11.61 | them to all situations, you will gain the real world. For in this | holy perception, you will be made whole, and the Atonement will |
| Tx:11.61 | will radiate from your acceptance of it for yourself to everyone the | Holy Spirit sends you for your blessing. In every Child of God His |
| Tx:11.63 | The | Holy Spirit is invisible, but you can see the results of His |
| Tx:11.63 | and mass, of prediction and control is transcended, for what the | Holy Spirit enables you to do is clearly beyond all of them. |
| Tx:11.64 | You cannot see the | Holy Spirit, but you can see His manifestations. And unless you do, |
| Tx:11.64 | real to you as its presence becomes manifest through you. Do the | Holy Spirit's work, for you share in His function. As your function |
| Tx:11.64 | is healing. God shares His function with you in Heaven, and the | Holy Spirit shares His with you on earth. |
| Tx:11.65 | is the destruction of peace, a goal in direct opposition to the | Holy Spirit's purpose. You see what you expect, and you expect what |
| Tx:11.66 | I am the manifestation of the | Holy Spirit, and when you see me, it will be because you have invited |
| Tx:11.72 | you will find it, for by making it manifest, you will see it. Its | holy witnesses will surround you because you called upon them and |
| Tx:11.73 | for judgment is not your function. If it is the judgment of the | Holy Spirit, it will be right, for judgment is His function. You |
| Tx:11.75 | Father. That is why the undoing of guilt is an essential part of the | Holy Spirit's teaching. For as long as you feel guilty, you are |
| Tx:11.79 | true became invisible. Yet it cannot be invisible in itself, for the | Holy Spirit sees it with perfect clarity. It is invisible to you |
| Tx:11.79 | is up to you to decide what reality is. What can be seen is what the | Holy Spirit sees. The definition of reality is God's, not yours. He |
| Tx:11.82 | Everything you made has never been and is invisible because the | Holy Spirit does not see it. Yet what He does see is yours to behold, |
| Tx:11.82 | and truth. God's Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The | Holy Spirit looks upon him and sees nothing else in you. What is |
| Tx:11.89 | Long ago we said that the | Holy Spirit shares the goal of all good teachers, whose ultimate aim |
| Tx:11.89 | themselves unnecessary by teaching their pupils all they know. The | Holy Spirit wills only this, for sharing the Father's love for His |
| Tx:11.92 | he sees will never touch him, for although he believes in it, the | Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The Holy Spirit stands at the end |
| Tx:11.92 | he believes in it, the Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The | Holy Spirit stands at the end of time, where you must be because He |
| Tx:11.95 | As you perceive the | holy companions who travel with you, you will realize that there is |
| Tx:11.99 | guilt real, and if it is real, there is no way to overcome it. The | Holy Spirit dispels it simply through the calm recognition that it |
| Tx:12.10 | full extent. You may also think that it would be easy enough for the | Holy Spirit to show it to you and dispel it, without the need for you |
| Tx:12.13 | it, and the whole world you think you control would vanish. The | Holy Spirit, then, seems to be attacking your fortress, for you would |
| Tx:12.17 | he is not crucified. Here is both his pain and his healing, for the | Holy Spirit's vision is merciful, and His remedy is quick. Do not |
| Tx:12.19 | your love, or you will be hiding a dark place in your mind where the | Holy Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt yourself from His |
| Tx:12.29 | Would you recognize a | holy encounter if you are merely perceiving it as a meeting with your |
| Tx:12.29 | no one, and the sharing of salvation, which makes the encounter | holy, is excluded from your sight. The Holy Spirit teaches that you |
| Tx:12.29 | which makes the encounter holy, is excluded from your sight. The | Holy Spirit teaches that you always meet yourself and the encounter |
| Tx:12.29 | Spirit teaches that you always meet yourself and the encounter is | holy because you are. The ego teaches that you always encounter your |
| Tx:12.29 | you always encounter your past, and because your dreams were not | holy, the future cannot be, and the present is without meaning. It is |
| Tx:12.29 | be, and the present is without meaning. It is evident that the | Holy Spirit's perception of time is the exact opposite of the ego's. |
| Tx:12.30 | The | Holy Spirit interprets time's purpose as rendering the need for it |
| Tx:12.30 | For only now is here, and it presents the opportunities for the | holy encounters in which salvation can be found. |
| Tx:12.31 | time as one of extending itself in place of eternity, for like the | Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of time as its own. The |
| Tx:12.31 | can occur. Its continuity, then, would keep you in time, while the | Holy Spirit would release you from it. It is His interpretation of |
| Tx:12.42 | And He sees for you as your witness to the real world. He is the | Holy Spirit's manifestation, looking always on the real world and |
| Tx:12.44 | The | Holy Spirit is the light in which Christ stands revealed. And all who |
| Tx:12.44 | they looked upon themselves with love, seeing themselves as the | Holy Spirit sees them. And with this vision of the truth in them came |
| Tx:12.52 | gladness and thanksgiving for the light to the Creator of light. The | holy light that shines forth from God's Son is the witness that his |
| Tx:12.54 | ask for love are grateful for it, and in their joy, they shine with | holy thanks. And this they offer you, who gave them joy. They are |
| Tx:12.55 | given it. And here will everything remind you of your Father and His | Holy Son. Light is unlimited and spreads across this world in quiet |
| Tx:12.67 | happy dreams of love. In these lie your true perceptions, for the | Holy Spirit corrects the world of dreams, where all perception is. |
| Tx:12.67 | lost. Praise, then, the Father for the perfect sanity of His most | holy Son. |
| Tx:12.68 | are lacking. Yet can you find yourself in such a world? Without the | Holy Spirit, the answer would be no. Yet because of Him, the answer |
| Tx:12.70 | Only the | Holy Spirit knows what you need. For He will give you all things that |
| Tx:12.71 | His goal. God's Son is not a traveler through outer worlds. However | holy his perception may become, no world outside himself holds his |
| Tx:12.73 | The | Holy Spirit leads me unto Christ, and where else would I go? What |
| Tx:12.75 | restore to you the peace of mind that we must find together. The | Holy Spirit will teach you to awaken unto us and to yourself. This is |
| Tx:12.76 | The sound of it will banish sorrow from the Mind of God's most | holy Son, where it cannot abide. Healing in time is needed, for joy |
| Tx:13.1 | All therapy is release from the past. That is why the | Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He teaches that the past does not |
| Tx:13.2 | at its loftiest is never complete. Even the perception of the | Holy Spirit, as perfect as perception can be, is without meaning in |
| Tx:13.2 | of Christ beholds everything in light. Yet no perception, however | holy, will last forever. |
| Tx:13.4 | Apart from the Father and the Son, the | Holy Spirit has no function. He is not separate from either, being in |
| Tx:13.6 | the One Reality of God. The only miracle that ever was is God's most | holy Son, created in the One Reality that is his Father. Christ's |
| Tx:13.7 | and everywhere, for miracles offered the Son of God through the | Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy Spirit knows your part in |
| Tx:13.7 | the Son of God through the Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The | Holy Spirit knows your part in the redemption and who are seeking you |
| Tx:13.8 | free yourself of Him Who knows of freedom. Unite with me under the | holy banner of His teaching, and as we grow in strength, the power of |
| Tx:13.8 | over, and we will all unite in the eternity of God the Father. The | holy light you saw outside yourself in every miracle you offered to |
| Tx:13.14 | of everything you cherish, for it is the means by which the | Holy Spirit can separate the false and the true, which you have |
| Tx:13.16 | of God lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you would have the | Holy Spirit make you free of it, accept His offer of Atonement for |
| Tx:13.19 | Within you is the | holy sign of perfect faith your Father has in you. He does not value |
| Tx:13.21 | for this strange purpose! And you forgot that real relationships are | holy and cannot be used by you at all. They are used only by the Holy |
| Tx:13.21 | are holy and cannot be used by you at all. They are used only by the | Holy Spirit, and it is that which makes them pure. [If you displace |
| Tx:13.21 | which makes them pure. [If you displace your guilt upon them, the | Holy Spirit cannot use them.] For by preempting for your own ends |
| Tx:13.25 | learn that guilt is always totally insane and has no reason. The | Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. If guilt were real, |
| Tx:13.26 | The | Holy Spirit does not keep illusions in your mind to frighten you and |
| Tx:13.26 | is gone. Give no reality to guilt, and see no reason for it. The | Holy Spirit does what God would have Him do and has always done so. |
| Tx:13.28 | cloud of guilt that dims your vision, and look past darkness to the | holy place where you will see the light. The altar to your Father is |
| Tx:13.29 | not in the Mind of God where you are. And this is reason, which the | Holy Spirit would restore to you. He would remove only illusions. All |
| Tx:13.32 | guilt forever. I thank You, Father, for the purity of Your most | holy Son, whom You have created guiltless forever. |
| Tx:13.38 | of sharing while you still remember the results of not sharing. The | Holy Spirit points quietly to the contrast, knowing that you will |
| Tx:13.39 | minds are darkened by doubt and guilt, remember this: God gave the | Holy Spirit to you and gave Him the mission to remove all doubt and |
| Tx:13.39 | accomplished from accomplishment. Whatever your reactions to the | Holy Spirit's Voice may be, whatever voice you choose to listen to, |
| Tx:13.39 | He is invariable as the peace in which you dwell and of which the | Holy Spirit reminds you. |
| Tx:13.40 | you realize that this is what you want, and only this. Fear not the | Holy Spirit will fail in what your Father has given Him to do. The |
| Tx:13.41 | They will not prevail against the peace God wills for you. The | Holy Spirit will restore your sanity, because insanity is not the |
| Tx:13.42 | flows to you from Him Whose Will is peace. You have it now. The | Holy Spirit will teach you how to use it and, by projecting it, to |
| Tx:13.43 | God willed you Heaven and will always will you nothing else. The | Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. There is no chance that Heaven |
| Tx:13.43 | to save. It will not be possible to exempt yourself from what the | Holy Spirit wills to teach you. Salvation is as sure as God. His |
| Tx:13.45 | The | Holy Spirit cannot fail to undo for you everything you have learned |
| Tx:13.45 | substitute for your reconciliation unto sanity and unto peace. The | Holy Spirit has a very different kind of reconciliation in His Mind |
| Tx:13.46 | Him you cannot wander, and there is no possibility that the plan the | Holy Spirit offers to everyone for the salvation of everyone will not |
| Tx:13.47 | you have the means for learning it and seeing it quite clearly. The | Holy Spirit uses logic as easily and as well as does the ego, except |
| Tx:13.47 | us now turn away from them and follow the simple logic by which the | Holy Spirit teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for truth |
| Tx:13.50 | touched, and your dream is sacred to you. That is why God placed the | Holy Spirit in you, where you placed the dream. |
| Tx:13.52 | Any direction which will lead you where the | Holy Spirit leads you not goes nowhere. Anything you deny which He |
| Tx:13.53 | The | Holy Spirit, therefore, must begin His teaching by showing you what |
| Tx:13.54 | The | Holy Spirit needs a happy learner in whom His mission can be happily |
| Tx:13.54 | must first recognize that you are miserable and not happy. The | Holy Spirit cannot teach without this contrast, for you believe that |
| Tx:13.56 | The | Holy Spirit, seeing where you are but knowing you are elsewhere, |
| Tx:13.57 | they are kings with golden crowns because of them. All this the | Holy Spirit sees and teaches simply that all this is not true. To |
| Tx:13.57 | and delude themselves into believing that it is not nothing, the | Holy Spirit says, with steadfast quietness: |
| Tx:13.58 | you. Offer your faith to Me, and I will place it gently in the | holy place where it belongs. You will find no deception there but |
| Tx:13.59 | Like you, the | Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He |
| Tx:13.61 | learner, you must give everything that you have learned over to the | Holy Spirit to be unlearned for you. And then begin to learn the |
| Tx:13.62 | the conditions of knowledge in the Kingdom. All this lies in the | Holy Spirit's plan to free you from the past and open up the way to |
| Tx:13.62 | the hands of Christ Who gives it to you that you may join Him in the | holy task of bringing light to darkness. For, like your brothers, you |
| Tx:13.63 | instant that it is perceived. Where everything is clear, it is all | holy. The quietness of its simplicity is so compelling that you will |
| Tx:13.68 | the crucifixion and the resurrection, between the ego and the | Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy Spirit the |
| Tx:13.68 | the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the | Holy Spirit the decision for guiltlessness. The power of decision is |
| Tx:13.70 | darkness has no power over the Son of God is the happy lesson the | Holy Spirit teaches and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy |
| Tx:13.72 | himself the penalty of guilt in place of all the happy teaching the | Holy Spirit would gladly offer him. |
| Tx:13.74 | that what they want is good. Yet will was given them because it is | holy and will bring to them all that they need, coming as naturally |
| Tx:13.74 | of value. Yet because they do not understand their will, the | Holy Spirit quietly understands it for them and gives them what they |
| Tx:13.76 | Make no decisions about what it is or where it lies, but ask of the | Holy Spirit everything and leave all decisions to His gentle counsel. |
| Tx:13.77 | would define what salvation is and what you would be saved from. The | Holy Spirit knows that all salvation is escape from guilt. You have |
| Tx:13.77 | against this strange distortion of the purity of the Son of God, the | Holy Spirit is your only friend. He is the strong protector of your |
| Tx:13.79 | Seek not to appraise the worth of God's Son, whom He created | holy, for to do so is to evaluate his Father and judge against Him. |
| Tx:13.80 | Say to the | Holy Spirit only, “Decide for me,” and it is done. For His decisions |
| Tx:13.80 | cannot know when all knowledge lies behind every decision which the | Holy Spirit makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and teach |
| Tx:13.88 | When you have let all that obscured the truth in your most | holy mind be undone for you and stand in grace before your Father, He |
| Tx:13.92 | in summer. Only your own volition seems to make deciding hard. The | Holy Spirit will not delay at all in answering your every question |
| Tx:14.3 | God. It does not teach you what you are or what your Father is. The | Holy Spirit, Who remembers this for you, merely teaches you how to |
| Tx:14.4 | unlike the way he sees himself. God can communicate only to the | Holy Spirit in your mind because only He shares the knowledge of what |
| Tx:14.4 | only He shares the knowledge of what you are with God. And only the | Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He knows what God is. |
| Tx:14.5 | nothing of value here and everything of value there. Listen to the | Holy Spirit and to God through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is |
| Tx:14.11 | only this. You will not be exempt from the effects of this most | holy lesson, which seeks but to restore what is the right of God's |
| Tx:14.12 | of perfect purity from which no one is excluded. Within its | holy circle is everyone whom God created as His Son. Joy is its |
| Tx:14.13 | calling you to peace. Teach peace with me and stand with me on | holy ground. Remember for everyone your Father's power that He has |
| Tx:14.14 | aim. It sees as guilty, and by its condemnation, it would kill. The | Holy Spirit sees only guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would |
| Tx:14.15 | Each one you see you place within the | holy circle of Atonement or leave outside, judging him fit for |
| Tx:14.15 | Holiness must be shared, for therein lies everything that makes it | holy. Come gladly to the holy circle, and look out in peace on all |
| Tx:14.15 | for therein lies everything that makes it holy. Come gladly to the | holy circle, and look out in peace on all who think they are outside. |
| Tx:14.15 | this is what he seeks, along with you. Come, let us join him in the | holy place of peace, which is for all of us, united as one within the |
| Tx:14.17 | The quiet light in which the | Holy Spirit dwells within you is merely perfect openness in which |
| Tx:14.20 | you have made for breaking your communication with your Father. The | Holy Spirit reinterprets it as a means of reestablishing what has not |
| Tx:14.20 | been made obscure. All things you made have use to Him for His most | holy purpose. He knows you are not separate from God, but He |
| Tx:14.20 | it to crucify yourselves must learn of Him how to apply it to the | holy cause of restoration. |
| Tx:14.21 | maker. You who made it are but expressing conflict, from which the | Holy Spirit would release you. Leave what you would communicate to |
| Tx:14.23 | The | Holy Spirit's function is entirely communication. He therefore must |
| Tx:14.28 | not defend itself. Defense is of your making. God knows it not. The | Holy Spirit uses defenses on behalf of truth only because you made |
| Tx:14.29 | you made, must be gently turned to your own good, translated by the | Holy Spirit from means of self-destruction to means of preservation |
| Tx:14.30 | The | Holy Spirit asks of you but this—bring to Him every secret you have |
| Tx:14.31 | one purpose which He shares with you. The single vision which the | Holy Spirit offers you will bring this oneness to your mind with |
| Tx:14.32 | let all that would hide your glory be brought to the judgment of the | Holy Spirit and there undone. Whom He would save for glory is saved |
| Tx:14.34 | do know God and also this. All this is safe within you, where the | Holy Spirit shines. He shines not in division, but in the meeting |
| Tx:14.34 | Him. Communication between what cannot be divided cannot cease. The | holy meeting place of the unseparated Father and His Son lies in the |
| Tx:14.34 | holy meeting place of the unseparated Father and His Son lies in the | Holy Spirit and in you. All interference in the communication that |
| Tx:14.36 | creation is accomplished by the Creator and by His creations. In the | holy meeting place are joined the Father and His creations, and the |
| Tx:14.38 | The Atonement does not make | holy. You were created holy. It merely brings unholiness to holiness, |
| Tx:14.38 | The Atonement does not make holy. You were created | holy. It merely brings unholiness to holiness, or what you made to |
| Tx:14.38 | bringing together of truth and illusion, of the ego to God, is the | Holy Spirit's only function. Keep not your making from your Father, |
| Tx:14.40 | though His worshiper placed other gods upon it. The temple still is | holy, for the Presence that dwells within it is Holiness. |
| Tx:14.41 | joy of living. For God is Life, and they abide in Life. [Life is as | holy as the Holiness by Which it was created.] The Presence of |
| Tx:14.41 | that lives, for Holiness created life and leaves not what It created | holy as Itself. |
| Tx:14.43 | to see no one can fail to understand. It is the message that the | Holy Spirit is holding to the mirror that is in him. He recognizes it |
| Tx:14.50 | to arrange by judgment. [Therefore, it is not your function, but the | Holy Spirit's.] It will seem difficult for you to learn that you have |
| Tx:14.50 | you have no basis at all for ordering your thoughts. This lesson the | Holy Spirit teaches by giving you shining examples to show you that |
| Tx:14.52 | The only judgment involved at all is the | Holy Spirit's one division into two categories—one of love and the |
| Tx:14.55 | you hold is for yourself. If you would remember your Father, let the | Holy Spirit order your thoughts and give only the answer with which |
| Tx:14.56 | As God communicates to the | Holy Spirit in you, so does the Holy Spirit translate His |
| Tx:14.56 | As God communicates to the Holy Spirit in you, so does the | Holy Spirit translate His communications through you so you can |
| Tx:14.56 | for all. Nothing lives in secret, and what you would hide from the | Holy Spirit is nothing. Every interpretation you would lay upon a |
| Tx:14.56 | interpretation you would lay upon a brother is senseless. Let the | Holy Spirit show him to you and teach you both his love and need for |
| Tx:14.63 | this in one form or another. And each bright lesson, with which the | Holy Spirit will replace the dark ones you do not accept and hide, |
| Tx:14.68 | with certain aspects of your lives alone that the guidance of the | Holy Spirit is limited. Thus would you make Him undependable and use |
| Tx:14.69 | Do you think that what the | Holy Spirit would have you give He would withhold from you? You have |
| Tx:14.70 | no dark lessons of guilt can abide in what He has established as | holy by His Presence. Thank God that He is there and works through |
| Tx:14.71 | your Father. The miracle of creation has never ceased, having the | holy stamp of immortality upon it. This is the Will of God for all |
| Tx:14.73 | not upon the ego for anything. It is only this that you need do. The | Holy Spirit will, of Himself, fill every mind that so makes room for |
| Tx:15.2 | is your belief that this takes time, and that the results of the | Holy Spirit's teaching are far in the future. This is not so. For the |
| Tx:15.2 | Spirit's teaching are far in the future. This is not so. For the | Holy Spirit uses time in His own way and is not bound by it. [Time is |
| Tx:15.2 | uses time to support its belief in destruction. The ego, like the | Holy Spirit, uses time to convince you of the inevitability of the |
| Tx:15.2 | teaching. To the ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to the | Holy Spirit the goal is life, which has no end. |
| Tx:15.8 | The | Holy Spirit teaches thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the ego |
| Tx:15.8 | from understanding the present, because you are afraid of it. The | Holy Spirit leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell. |
| Tx:15.8 | leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell. For the | Holy Spirit, Who knows only the present, uses it to undo the fear by |
| Tx:15.9 | The | Holy Spirit would undo all of this now. Fear is not of the present |
| Tx:15.10 | it takes no time at all to be what you are. Begin to practice the | Holy Spirit's use of time as a teaching aid to happiness and peace. |
| Tx:15.10 | completely free, and wholly without condemnation. From this | holy instant wherein holiness was born again, you will go forth in |
| Tx:15.11 | lies Heaven. And Heaven will not change, for the birth into the | holy present is salvation from change. Change is an illusion, taught |
| Tx:15.11 | is no change in Heaven because there is no change in God. In the | holy instant in which you see yourself as bright with freedom, you |
| Tx:15.12 | “How long is an instant?” Could you not give so short a time to the | Holy Spirit for your salvation? He asks no more, for He has no need |
| Tx:15.13 | You will never give this | holy instant to the Holy Spirit on behalf of your release while you |
| Tx:15.13 | You will never give this holy instant to the | Holy Spirit on behalf of your release while you are unwilling to give |
| Tx:15.13 | attest to your willingness to be released and to offer time to the | Holy Spirit for His use of it. How long is an instant? It is as short |
| Tx:15.13 | are enslaved by time and thus make time their friend for them. The | Holy Spirit gives their blessed instant to you through your giving |
| Tx:15.14 | you give is your instantaneous escape from guilt. You must be | holy if you offer holiness. How long is an instant? As long as it |
| Tx:15.15 | Time is your friend if you leave it to the | Holy Spirit to use. He needs but very little to restore God's whole |
| Tx:15.15 | in that shining instant of perfect release. Offer the miracle of the | holy instant through the Holy Spirit and leave His giving it to you |
| Tx:15.15 | perfect release. Offer the miracle of the holy instant through the | Holy Spirit and leave His giving it to you to Him. |
| Tx:15.16 | For unless God is bound, you cannot be. An instant offered to the | Holy Spirit is offered to God on your behalf, and in that instant you |
| Tx:15.16 | the blessed instant, you will let go all your past learning, and the | Holy Spirit will quickly offer you the whole lesson of peace. What |
| Tx:15.17 | eternity. Blessed is God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to teach God's | holy Son his holiness. His joy is not contained in time. His teaching |
| Tx:15.18 | uphold its weakness, do not perceive the Source of strength. In the | holy instant, you will unchain all your brothers and refuse to |
| Tx:15.19 | Yet they are far stronger and much more compelling witnesses for the | Holy Spirit. And they support His strength. It is, therefore, your |
| Tx:15.19 | It is, therefore, your choice whether they support the ego or the | Holy Spirit in you. And you will know which you have chosen by their |
| Tx:15.19 | by their reactions. A Son of God who has been released through the | Holy Spirit in a brother, if the release is complete, is always |
| Tx:15.19 | of this, you have not given one single instant completely to the | Holy Spirit. For when you have, you will be sure you have. You will |
| Tx:15.20 | until you hear one witness whom you have wholly released through the | Holy Spirit. And then you will doubt no more. The holy instant has |
| Tx:15.20 | through the Holy Spirit. And then you will doubt no more. The | holy instant has not yet happened to you. Yet it will, and you will |
| Tx:15.20 | recognized in any other way. You can practice the mechanics of the | holy instant and will learn much from doing so. Yet its shining and |
| Tx:15.21 | Start now to practice your little part in separating out the | holy instant. You will receive very specific instructions as you go |
| Tx:15.25 | There is no doubt about what your function is, for the | Holy Spirit knows what it is. There is no doubt about its magnitude, |
| Tx:15.26 | to the ego or host to God?” Let this question be asked you by the | Holy Spirit in you every time you make a decision. For every decision |
| Tx:15.27 | for hell and will bring you awareness of what you decided for. The | Holy Spirit can hold your magnitude, clean of all littleness, clearly |
| Tx:15.30 | and all the little offerings you have given slip into nothingness. | Holy Child of God, when will you learn that only holiness can content |
| Tx:15.34 | only the peace in which He dwells. Lay not littleness before His | holy altar, which rises above the stars and reaches even to Heaven |
| Tx:15.35 | that you would rather delay the recognition that His Will is so. The | holy instant is this one and every one. The one you want it to be it |
| Tx:15.37 | decision to join in any plan but His. I call you to fulfill your | holy part in the plan that He has given to the world for its release |
| Tx:15.38 | Would you learn how perfect and immaculate is the | holy altar on which your Father has placed Himself? This you will |
| Tx:15.38 | which your Father has placed Himself? This you will recognize in the | holy instant in which you willingly and gladly give over every plan |
| Tx:15.38 | you have been willing to meet its conditions. You can claim the | holy instant any time and anywhere you want it. In your practice, try |
| Tx:15.38 | for finding magnitude in littleness. It is not there. Use the | holy instant only to recognize that you alone cannot know where it is |
| Tx:15.39 | I stand within the | holy instant, as clear as you would have me. And the extent to which |
| Tx:15.39 | to be willing to accept me is the measure of the time in which the | holy instant will be yours. I call to you to make the holy instant |
| Tx:15.39 | in which the holy instant will be yours. I call to you to make the | holy instant yours at once, for the release from littleness in the |
| Tx:15.40 | You could live forever in the | holy instant, beginning now and reaching to eternity, but for a very |
| Tx:15.40 | and not to let it go. The simple reason, simply stated, is this: The | holy instant is a time in which you receive and give perfect |
| Tx:15.41 | could do that is to deny the perfect communication that makes the | holy instant what it is. You believe that it is possible to harbor |
| Tx:15.42 | that interferes with it go forever?” If the answer is no, then the | Holy Spirit's readiness to give it to you is not enough to make it |
| Tx:15.42 | it cannot come into a mind that has decided to oppose it. For the | holy instant is given and received with equal willingness, being the |
| Tx:15.43 | The necessary condition for the | holy instant does not require that you have no thoughts which are not |
| Tx:15.44 | not to protect the thoughts you would keep unto yourself. Let the | Holy Spirit's purity shine them away and bring all your awareness to |
| Tx:15.45 | The | holy instant is the Holy Spirit's most useful learning device for |
| Tx:15.45 | The holy instant is the | Holy Spirit's most useful learning device for teaching you love's |
| Tx:15.47 | can give you more than others? The past has taught you this. Yet the | holy instant teaches you it is not so. |
| Tx:15.48 | perfect. In His function as Interpreter of what you have made, the | Holy Spirit uses special relationships, which you have chosen to |
| Tx:15.49 | The | Holy Spirit knows no one is special. Yet He also perceives that you |
| Tx:15.50 | which you would substitute for another has not been offered to the | Holy Spirit for His use. There is no substitute for love. If you |
| Tx:15.52 | special relationships, and although this is not so in Heaven, the | Holy Spirit knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the |
| Tx:15.52 | Spirit knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the | holy instant no one is special, for your personal needs intrude on no |
| Tx:15.52 | Nor would you see any separation between yourself and them. In the | holy instant, you see in each relationship what it will be when you |
| Tx:15.53 | nothing, having always known you exactly as He knows you now. The | holy instant parallels His knowing by bringing all perception out of |
| Tx:15.53 | have built by which to judge your brothers. Once this is gone, the | Holy Spirit substitutes His frame of reference for it. His frame of |
| Tx:15.53 | frame of reference for it. His frame of reference is simply God. The | Holy Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the holy instant, |
| Tx:15.53 | God. The Holy Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the | holy instant, free of the past, you see that love is in you, and you |
| Tx:15.54 | All your relationships are blessed in the | holy instant because the blessing is not limited. In the holy |
| Tx:15.54 | in the holy instant because the blessing is not limited. In the | holy instant, the Sonship gains as one. And united in your blessing, |
| Tx:15.54 | you have been told to offer miracles as Christ directs and let the | Holy Spirit bring to you those who are seeking you. Yet in the holy |
| Tx:15.54 | the Holy Spirit bring to you those who are seeking you. Yet in the | holy instant, you unite directly with God, and all your brothers join |
| Tx:15.55 | Love. With love in you, you have no need except to extend it. In the | holy instant, there is no conflict of needs, for there is only one. |
| Tx:15.55 | there is no conflict of needs, for there is only one. For the | holy instant reaches to eternity and to the Mind of God. And it is |
| Tx:15.56 | condemn part of a relationship and find peace within it. Under the | Holy Spirit's teaching, all relationships are seen as total |
| Tx:15.57 | as it is in you, or it would be a limited gift to you. In the | holy instant, we share our faith in God's Son because we recognize |
| Tx:15.60 | accepted, and so no one is aware that perfect love is in him. In the | holy instant, you recognize the idea of love in you and unite this |
| Tx:15.60 | relinquish it. By holding it within itself, there was no loss. The | holy instant thus becomes a lesson in how to hold all of your |
| Tx:15.61 | In the | holy instant, the laws of God prevail, and only they have meaning. |
| Tx:15.62 | In the | holy instant, nothing happens that has not always been. Only the veil |
| Tx:15.62 | the light behind it can have faith in love without fear. Yet the | Holy Spirit gives you this faith because He offered it to me and I |
| Tx:15.62 | faith because He offered it to me and I accepted it. Fear not the | holy instant will be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me |
| Tx:15.62 | instant will be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me the | Holy Spirit gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no need that |
| Tx:15.62 | Let no need that you perceive obscure your need of this. For in the | holy instant, you will recognize the only need the aspects of the Son |
| Tx:15.64 | In the | holy instant God is remembered, and the language of communication |
| Tx:15.64 | is remembered together, as is truth. There is no exclusion in the | holy instant because the past is gone and with it goes the whole |
| Tx:15.67 | open-eyed at this, for ugliness such as this belongs not in your | holy mind. The host of God can have no real investment here. |
| Tx:15.69 | chain that binds the Son of God to guilt, and it is this chain the | Holy Spirit would remove from his holy mind. For the chain of |
| Tx:15.69 | to guilt, and it is this chain the Holy Spirit would remove from his | holy mind. For the chain of savagery belongs not around the chosen |
| Tx:15.69 | closely at the relationships which the ego contrives and let the | Holy Spirit judge them truly. For it is certain that, if you will |
| Tx:15.75 | will feel guilty about communication and will be afraid to hear the | Holy Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own need to communicate. |
| Tx:15.75 | Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own need to communicate. The | Holy Spirit cannot teach through fear. And how can He communicate |
| Tx:15.77 | in communication as surely as damnation lies in guilt. It is the | Holy Spirit's teaching function to instruct those who believe that |
| Tx:15.77 | the power of God in Him and you is joined in real relationship, so | holy and so strong that it can overcome even this without fear. It is |
| Tx:15.77 | that it can overcome even this without fear. It is through the | holy instant that what seems impossible is accomplished, making it |
| Tx:15.77 | is accomplished, making it evident that it is not impossible. In the | holy instant, guilt holds no attraction, since communication has been |
| Tx:15.79 | The | holy instant does not replace the need for learning, for the Holy |
| Tx:15.79 | The holy instant does not replace the need for learning, for the | Holy Spirit must not leave you as your Teacher until the holy instant |
| Tx:15.79 | for the Holy Spirit must not leave you as your Teacher until the | holy instant has extended far beyond time. For a teaching assignment |
| Tx:15.80 | desire with all your hearts. Let us join together in making the | holy instant all that there is by desiring that it be all that there |
| Tx:15.81 | of failure as nothing more than a mistake in who you are. For the | holy host of God is beyond failure, and nothing that he wills can be |
| Tx:15.81 | that he wills can be denied. You are forever in a relationship so | holy that it calls to everyone to escape from loneliness and join you |
| Tx:15.83 | The | Holy Spirit is God's attempt to free you of what He does not |
| Tx:15.83 | And because of the Source of the attempt, it will succeed. The | Holy Spirit asks you to respond as God does, for He would teach you |
| Tx:15.84 | The | Holy Spirit knows that it is not understandable, and yet He |
| Tx:15.84 | of what God cannot know and what you do not understand. It is His | holy function to accept them both, and by removing every element of |
| Tx:15.85 | limit your perception of your brothers to the body, so would the | Holy Spirit release your vision and let you see the Great Rays |
| Tx:15.85 | to God. It is this shift in vision which is accomplished in the | holy instant. Yet it is needful for you to learn just what this shift |
| Tx:15.87 | relationships have no limits, having been established by God. In the | holy instant, where the Great Rays replace the body in awareness, the |
| Tx:15.89 | If you would but let the | Holy Spirit tell you of the love of God for you and the need your |
| Tx:15.90 | vision of God's Son to what interferes with his release and what the | Holy Spirit must undo to set him free. For his belief in limits has |
| Tx:15.91 | and your thoughts will be as free as God's. As you let the | Holy Spirit teach you how to use the body only for purposes of |
| Tx:15.91 | sees in it, you will learn you have no need of a body at all. In the | holy instant there are no bodies, and you experience only the |
| Tx:15.92 | time nor season means anything in eternity. But here it is the | Holy Spirit's function to use them both, though not as the ego uses |
| Tx:15.92 | my birth into the world. Yet you know not how to do it. Let the | Holy Spirit teach you, and let me celebrate your birth through Him. |
| Tx:15.93 | The | holy instant is truly the time of Christ. For in this liberating |
| Tx:15.94 | have offered it to everyone. It is in your power to make this season | holy, for it is in your power to make the time of Christ be now. |
| Tx:15.102 | the host who cradles God in the time of Christ, for the Host is as | holy as the Perfect Innocence which He protects and Whose power |
| Tx:15.103 | This Christmas, give the | Holy Spirit everything that would hurt you. Let yourself be healed |
| Tx:15.107 | In the | holy instant, the condition of love is met, for minds are joined |
| Tx:15.109 | God offers thanks to the | holy host who would receive Him and let Him enter and abide where He |
| Tx:15.111 | I give you to the | Holy Spirit as part of myself. I know that you will be released, |
| Tx:15.112 | There is much to do, and we have been long delayed. Accept the | holy instant as this year is born and take your place, so long left |
| Tx:15.112 | by making it all the same. And let all your relationships be made | holy for you. This is our will. Amen. |
| Tx:16.1 | suffering is shared. The capacity to empathize is very useful to the | Holy Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His way. [His way is very |
| Tx:16.2 | this you may be sure—if you will merely sit quietly by and let the | Holy Spirit relate through you, you will empathize with strength and |
| Tx:16.7 | conflict because they contain an element of specialness. Only the | Holy Spirit recognizes foolish needs as well as real ones. And He |
| Tx:16.10 | everyone. And you have learned that it must include everyone to be | holy. Concern yourselves not with the extension of holiness, for the |
| Tx:16.13 | Sonship as one has been made. When you have made this joining as the | Holy Spirit bids you and have offered it to Him to use as He knows |
| Tx:16.14 | Yet this is your position. You would have perfect faith in the | Holy Spirit and in the effects of His teaching if you were not afraid |
| Tx:16.19 | that makes for happiness. You have never given any problem to the | Holy Spirit He has not solved for you, nor will you ever do so. You |
| Tx:16.25 | Your teaching has already done this, for the | Holy Spirit is part of you. Created by God, He left neither God nor |
| Tx:16.25 | of the Self you do not know. And they communicate to you through the | Holy Spirit, and their power and gratitude to you for their creation |
| Tx:16.28 | To your most | holy Self, all praise is due for what you are and for what He is Who |
| Tx:16.41 | more forget the truth in you than you can fail to remember it. The | Holy Spirit is the bridge to Him, made from your willingness to unite |
| Tx:16.47 | There can be no disagreement on this, because both the ego and the | Holy Spirit accept it. They are, however, in complete disagreement on |
| Tx:16.47 | disagreement on what completion is and how it is accomplished. The | Holy Spirit knows that completion lies first in union and then in the |
| Tx:16.60 | be unable to find you and comfort you. There is a way in which the | Holy Spirit asks your help if you would have His. The holy instant is |
| Tx:16.60 | in which the Holy Spirit asks your help if you would have His. The | holy instant is His most helpful tool in protecting you from the |
| Tx:16.68 | within it. Wait no longer, for the love of God and you. And may the | holy instant speed you on the way, as it will surely do if you but |
| Tx:16.69 | The | Holy Spirit asks only this little help of you. Whenever your thoughts |
| Tx:16.69 | special relationship which still attracts you, enter with Him into a | holy instant and there let Him release you. He needs only your |
| Tx:16.75 | Against the ego's insane notion of salvation, the | Holy Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the |
| Tx:16.75 | ego's insane notion of salvation, the Holy Spirit gently lays the | holy instant. We said before that the Holy Spirit must teach through |
| Tx:16.75 | Holy Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the | Holy Spirit must teach through comparisons and uses opposites to |
| Tx:16.75 | teach through comparisons and uses opposites to point to truth. The | holy instant is the opposite of the ego's fixed belief in salvation |
| Tx:16.75 | fixed belief in salvation through vengeance for the past. In the | holy instant, it is accepted that the past is gone, and with its |
| Tx:16.76 | For a time you may attempt to bring illusions into the | holy instant to hinder your full awareness of the complete difference |
| Tx:16.76 | of truth and illusion. Yet you will not attempt this long. In the | holy instant, the power of the Holy Spirit will prevail because you |
| Tx:16.76 | will not attempt this long. In the holy instant, the power of the | Holy Spirit will prevail because you joined Him. The illusions you |
| Tx:16.76 | will prevent you from keeping the experience in your mind. Yet the | holy instant is eternal, and your illusions of time will not prevent |
| Tx:16.77 | giving. You will receive because it is His Will to give. He gave the | holy instant to be given you, and it is impossible that you receive |
| Tx:16.77 | it. When He willed that His Son be free, His Son was free. In the | holy instant is His reminder that His Son will always be exactly as |
| Tx:16.77 | His Son will always be exactly as he was created. And everything the | Holy Spirit teaches you is to remind you that you have received what |
| Tx:16.78 | have been forgiven, for it is you who offered them illusions. In the | holy instant, this is done for you in time to bring to you the true |
| Tx:16.80 | Seek and find his message in the | holy instant, where all illusions are forgiven. From there the |
| Tx:17.7 | you will see the Son of God. You will behold the beauty which the | Holy Spirit loves to look upon and which He thanks the Father for. He |
| Tx:17.13 | trembling with readiness to be given you. The eagerness of the | Holy Spirit to give you this is so intense He would not wait, |
| Tx:17.15 | to its power. It is these shadow figures which would make the ego | holy in your sight and teach you what you do to keep it safe is |
| Tx:17.19 | of it and join with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” How can the | Holy Spirit bring His interpretation of the body as a means of |
| Tx:17.21 | The | Holy Spirit wills only to make His resolutions complete and perfect, |
| Tx:17.23 | This is the only part of the relationship the | Holy Spirit sees because He knows that only this is true. You have |
| Tx:17.25 | follows from them comes from what they are and is as true as is the | holy Source from which they came. |
| Tx:17.26 | My | holy brothers, I would enter into all your relationships and step |
| Tx:17.26 | and your goal of madness. Be not separate from me, and let not the | holy purpose of Atonement be lost to you in dreams of vengeance. |
| Tx:17.28 | yet it is possible to make happy. We have said repeatedly that the | Holy Spirit would not deprive you of your special relationships but |
| Tx:17.28 | function you have given them is clearly not to make happy. But the | holy relationship shares God's purpose, rather than aiming to make a |
| Tx:17.29 | the special relationship was the ego's answer to the creation of the | Holy Spirit, Who was God's answer to the separation. For although the |
| Tx:17.30 | system which the ego evolved to protect the separation from the | Holy Spirit was in response to the gift with which God blessed it and |
| Tx:17.30 | within itself the truth about everything. And the truth is that the | Holy Spirit is in close relationship with you because in Him is your |
| Tx:17.30 | to you. The relationship with Him has never been broken because the | Holy Spirit has not been separate from anyone since the separation. |
| Tx:17.30 | from anyone since the separation. And through Him have all your | holy relationships been carefully preserved to serve God's purpose |
| Tx:17.36 | That is why the | holy instant is so important in the defense of truth. The truth |
| Tx:17.37 | The | holy instant is a miniature of Heaven, sent you from Heaven. It is a |
| Tx:17.37 | your willingness to focus all your attention on the picture. The | holy instant is a miniature of eternity. It is a picture of |
| Tx:17.42 | relationship with Him lies in our relationship to one another. The | holy instant shines alike on all relationships, for in it they are |
| Tx:17.43 | The | holy relationship is the expression of the holy instant in living in |
| Tx:17.43 | The holy relationship is the expression of the | holy instant in living in this world. Like everything about |
| Tx:17.43 | in living in this world. Like everything about salvation, the | holy instant is a practical device, witnessed to by its results. The |
| Tx:17.43 | holy instant is a practical device, witnessed to by its results. The | holy instant never fails. The experience of it is always felt. Yet |
| Tx:17.43 | it is always felt. Yet without expression, it is not remembered. The | holy relationship is a constant reminder of the experience in which |
| Tx:17.43 | is a continuing hymn of hate in praise of its maker, so is the | holy relationship a happy song of praise to the Redeemer of |
| Tx:17.44 | The | holy relationship, a major step toward the perception of the real |
| Tx:17.44 | It is the old unholy relationship transformed and seen anew. The | holy relationship is a phenomenal teaching accomplishment. In all its |
| Tx:17.44 | it was. This is the first result of offering the relationship to the | Holy Spirit to use for His purposes. |
| Tx:17.45 | This invitation is accepted immediately, and the | Holy Spirit wastes no time in introducing the practical results of |
| Tx:17.48 | that the rewards of faith are being introduced. If you believed the | Holy Spirit was there to accept the relationship, why would you now |
| Tx:17.49 | Him not now, nor each other. This relationship has been reborn as | holy. |
| Tx:17.50 | explained to you as you perceive its purpose work in it to make it | holy. You will find many opportunities to blame each other for the |
| Tx:17.52 | in joyous echo of your choice. You have joined with many in the | holy instant, and they have joined with you. Think not your choice |
| Tx:17.52 | choice will leave you comfortless, for God Himself has blessed your | holy relationship. Join in His blessing, and withhold not yours upon |
| Tx:17.53 | You undertook together to invite the | Holy Spirit into your relationship. He could not have entered |
| Tx:17.53 | of thanks and gratitude, you make yourselves unable to express the | holy instant, and thus you lose sight of it. |
| Tx:17.54 | But where are you? To give thanks to each other is to appreciate the | holy instant and thus enable its results to be accepted and shared. |
| Tx:17.54 | but to make it powerless in its effects. You have received the | holy instant, but you have established a condition in which you |
| Tx:17.55 | You stand together in the | holy presence of truth itself. Here is the goal, together with you. |
| Tx:17.56 | freely given to each other, you will also accept the effects of the | holy instant and use them to correct all your mistakes and free you |
| Tx:17.57 | The practical application of the | Holy Spirit's purpose is extremely simple, but it is unequivocal. In |
| Tx:17.57 | for this it is apparent that it must be clear. The setting of the | Holy Spirit's goal is general. Now He will work with you to make it |
| Tx:17.60 | is quite noticeable that this approach has brought you closer to the | Holy Spirit's sorting out of truth and falsity. The true becomes what |
| Tx:17.61 | for the ego believes the situation brings the experience. The | Holy Spirit knows that the situation is as the goal determines it and |
| Tx:17.62 | of truth requires faith. Faith is implicit in the acceptance of the | Holy Spirit's purpose, and this faith is all-inclusive. Where the |
| Tx:17.62 | Where the goal of truth is set, there faith must be. The | Holy Spirit sees the situation as a whole. The goal establishes the |
| Tx:17.67 | cannot be seen except through faith, and your relationship was not | holy because your faith in one another was so limited and little. |
| Tx:17.69 | and used your faithlessness against each other. No relationship is | holy unless its holiness goes with it everywhere. As holiness and |
| Tx:17.70 | The power set in you in whom the | Holy Spirit's goal has been established is so far beyond your little |
| Tx:17.71 | You can leave nothing of yourself outside it and keep the situation | holy. For it shares the purpose of your whole relationship and |
| Tx:17.72 | [Truth calls for faith, and faith makes room for truth.] When the | Holy Spirit changed the purpose of your relationship by exchanging |
| Tx:17.73 | loneliness in God must be a dream. You whose relationship shares the | Holy Spirit's goal are set apart from loneliness because the truth |
| Tx:17.74 | The | holy instant is nothing more than a special case or an extreme |
| Tx:17.74 | of what every situation is meant to be. The meaning which the | Holy Spirit's purpose has given it is also given to every situation. |
| Tx:17.74 | and left unused, that faith might answer to the call of truth. The | holy instant is the shining example, the clear and unequivocal |
| Tx:17.75 | This simple courtesy is all the | Holy Spirit asks of you. Let truth be what it is. Do not intrude upon |
| Tx:17.76 | Would you not want to make a | holy instant of every situation? For such is the gift of faith, |
| Tx:17.76 | faithlessness is laid aside unused. And then the power of the | Holy Spirit's purpose is free to use instead. This power instantly |
| Tx:18.1 | perceive at once how much at variance this is with the goal the | Holy Spirit has given you and would accomplish for you. To substitute |
| Tx:18.2 | The | Holy Spirit never uses substitutes. Where the ego perceives one |
| Tx:18.2 | Where the ego perceives one person as a replacement for another, the | Holy Spirit sees them joined and indivisible. He does not judge |
| Tx:18.2 | separate. Nothing can come between what God has joined and what the | Holy Spirit sees as one. But everything seems to come between the |
| Tx:18.8 | far outside you. And turn you to the stately calm within, where in | holy stillness dwells the living God you never left and Who never |
| Tx:18.8 | dwells the living God you never left and Who never left you. The | Holy Spirit takes you gently by the hand and retraces with you your |
| Tx:18.9 | Within yourselves you love each other with a perfect love. Here is | holy ground in which no substitution can enter and where only the |
| Tx:18.9 | entered here, nor ever will. Here is the radiant truth to which the | Holy Spirit has committed your relationship. Let Him bring it here, |
| Tx:18.10 | are. You are not joined together in illusions but in the Thought so | holy and so perfect that illusions cannot remain to darken the holy |
| Tx:18.10 | so holy and so perfect that illusions cannot remain to darken the | holy place in which you stand together. God is with you, my brothers. |
| Tx:18.10 | join in Him in peace and gratitude and accept His gift as our most | holy and perfect reality, which we share in Him. |
| Tx:18.11 | and His whole creation have entered it together. How lovely and how | holy is your relationship, with the truth shining upon it! Heaven |
| Tx:18.13 | You have been called together to the most | holy function that this world contains. It is the only one which has |
| Tx:18.13 | with healing and uniting comfort. This is offered you in your | holy relationship. Accept it here, and you will give as you have |
| Tx:18.13 | of God is given you with the glowing purpose in which you join. The | holy light that brought you together must extend, as you accepted it. |
| Tx:18.20 | The | Holy Spirit, ever practical in His wisdom, accepts your dreams and |
| Tx:18.20 | your dreams of fear are changed to happy dreams. That is what the | Holy Spirit does in your special relationship. He does not destroy it |
| Tx:18.21 | will be a means for undoing guilt in everyone blessed through your | holy relationship. It will be a happy dream, and one which you will |
| Tx:18.21 | all who come within your sight. Through it, the blessing which the | Holy Spirit has laid upon it will be extended. Think not that He has |
| Tx:18.23 | special relationship meet its conditions. In your relationship, the | Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world—the world of happy |
| Tx:18.27 | was merely the wish to understand. That wish was the desire to be | holy. The Will of God is granted you. For you desire the only thing |
| Tx:18.28 | Your desire is now in complete accord with all the power of the | Holy Spirit's will. No little, faltering footsteps that you may take |
| Tx:18.29 | light and is removed forever. My need for you, joined with me in the | holy light of your relationship, is your need for salvation. Would I |
| Tx:18.30 | in you has been brought to light. Carry it back to darkness from the | holy instant to which you brought it. We are made whole in our desire |
| Tx:18.32 | The | holy instant is the result of your determination to be holy. It is |
| Tx:18.32 | The holy instant is the result of your determination to be | holy. It is the answer. The desire and the willingness to let it come |
| Tx:18.32 | that you realize that you cannot do more. Do not attempt to give the | Holy Spirit what He does not ask, or you will add the ego unto Him |
| Tx:18.32 | who adds the greatness and the might. He joins with you to make the | holy instant far greater than you can understand. It is your |
| Tx:18.33 | why you came. If you could come without them, you would not need the | holy instant. Come to it not in arrogance, assuming that you must |
| Tx:18.33 | must achieve the state its coming brings with it. The miracle of the | holy instant lies in your willingness to let it be what it is. And in |
| Tx:18.34 | than greatness, which comes not of you. Your difficulty with the | holy instant arises from your fixed conviction that you are not |
| Tx:18.35 | The | holy instant does not come from your little willingness alone. It is |
| Tx:18.36 | but merely receive the answer as it is given. In preparing for the | holy instant, do not attempt to make yourself holy to be ready to |
| Tx:18.36 | In preparing for the holy instant, do not attempt to make yourself | holy to be ready to receive it. That is but to confuse your role with |
| Tx:18.38 | will add if you prepare yourself for love. The preparation for the | holy instant belongs to Him Who gives it. Release yourselves to Him |
| Tx:18.39 | It is this that makes the | holy instant so easy and so natural. You make it difficult because |
| Tx:18.39 | that it is not personally insulting that your contribution and the | Holy Spirit's are so extremely disproportionate. You are still |
| Tx:18.40 | it, but you will remain quite unaware of it. If you believe the | holy instant is difficult for you, it is because you have become the |
| Tx:18.41 | between truth and illusion, the Atonement would have no meaning. The | holy instant, your holy relationship, the Holy Spirit's teaching, and |
| Tx:18.41 | the Atonement would have no meaning. The holy instant, your | holy relationship, the Holy Spirit's teaching, and all the means by |
| Tx:18.41 | would have no meaning. The holy instant, your holy relationship, the | Holy Spirit's teaching, and all the means by which salvation is |
| Tx:18.42 | Never approach the | holy instant after you have tried to remove all fear and hatred from |
| Tx:18.42 | function. Never attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the | Holy Spirit's help. That is His function. Your part is only to offer |
| Tx:18.43 | Through your | holy relationship, reborn and blessed in every holy instant which you |
| Tx:18.43 | Through your holy relationship, reborn and blessed in every | holy instant which you do not arrange, thousands will rise to Heaven |
| Tx:18.44 | for you to understand. You do not even realize you have accepted the | Holy Spirit's purpose as your own, and you would merely bring unholy |
| Tx:18.45 | It is no dream to love your brother as yourself. Nor is your | holy relationship a dream. All that remains of dreams within it is |
| Tx:18.45 | it is still a special relationship. Yet it is very useful to the | Holy Spirit, Who has a special function here. It will become the |
| Tx:18.46 | relationship is threatened by anything, stop instantly and offer the | Holy Spirit your willingness in spite of fear to let Him exchange |
| Tx:18.46 | in spite of fear to let Him exchange this instant for the | holy one which you would rather have. He will never fail in this. But |
| Tx:18.46 | Yet just as this is impossible, so is it equally impossible that the | holy instant come to either of you without the other. And it will |
| Tx:18.48 | I desire this | holy instant for myself that I may share it with my brother, whom I |
| Tx:18.48 | it now. And so I choose this instant as the one to offer to the | Holy Spirit, that His blessing may descend on us and keep us both in |
| Tx:18.52 | function of the body, it cannot change its function from what the | Holy Spirit establishes it to be. The body was not made by love. Yet |
| Tx:18.55 | is the host of God that you have made. And neither God nor His most | holy Son can enter an abode which harbors hate and where you have |
| Tx:18.61 | physical restrictions, you experience much of what happens in the | holy instant; the lifting of the barriers of time and space, the |
| Tx:18.62 | takes place with your desire for it is the irresistible appeal the | holy instant holds. It calls to you to be yourself within its safe |
| Tx:18.66 | It is impossible to accept the | holy instant without reservation unless just for an instant you are |
| Tx:18.66 | against sin. [Enormous effort is expended in the attempt to make | holy what is hated and despised.] Nor is a lifetime of contemplation |
| Tx:18.67 | Your way will be different, not in purpose but in means. A | holy relationship is a means of saving time. One instant spent |
| Tx:18.69 | activity of the body ceases to demand attention. Into this place the | Holy Spirit comes and there abides. He will remain when you forget |
| Tx:18.79 | love with him from Heaven for you. They enter one by one into this | holy place, but they will not depart as they had come, alone. The |
| Tx:18.80 | of Heaven with all the love of its Creator shining upon it. The | holy instant is your invitation to love, to enter into your bleak and |
| Tx:18.81 | no barriers which would interfere with its glad coming. In the | holy instant, you ask of love only what it offers everyone, neither |
| Tx:18.84 | the little thought that seems split off and separate, which the | Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in God's keeping and needs no |
| Tx:18.85 | Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of Heaven. Let the | Holy Spirit remove it from the withered kingdom in which you set it |
| Tx:18.85 | barricades is still a tiny segment of the Son of God, complete and | holy, serene and unaware of what you think surrounds it. Be you not |
| Tx:18.87 | Yet God can bring you there if you are willing to follow the | Holy Spirit through seeming terror, trusting Him not to abandon you |
| Tx:18.94 | interfere with love, letting it be itself. A step beyond this | holy place [of forgiveness], a step still further inward but the one |
| Tx:18.97 | above the darkness and gently placed before the gates of Heaven. The | holy instant in which you were united is but the messenger of love, |
| Tx:18.98 | And when the memory of God has come to you in the | holy place of forgiveness, you will remember nothing else, and memory |
| Tx:19.2 | And he is healed because you offered faith to him, giving him to the | Holy Spirit and releasing him from every demand your ego would make |
| Tx:19.2 | make of him. Thus do you see him free, and in this vision does the | Holy Spirit share. And since He shares it, He has given it, and so He |
| Tx:19.4 | apart from being healed. Your faithlessness has thus opposed the | Holy Spirit's purpose and brought illusions centered on the body to |
| Tx:19.11 | separate from yours. Each one appears just as he is perceived in the | holy instant, united in your purpose to be released from guilt. You |
| Tx:19.12 | for knowledge as is the real world. For faith arises from the | Holy Spirit's perception and is the sign you share it with Him. Faith |
| Tx:19.13 | Your | holy relationship, with its new purpose, offers you faith to give |
| Tx:19.13 | mind that receives it looks instantly beyond the body and sees the | holy place where it was healed. There is the altar where the grace |
| Tx:19.14 | In the | holy instant, you stand before the altar God has raised unto Himself |
| Tx:19.15 | your little kingdoms barren and separate, so will faith help the | Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy garden which He |
| Tx:19.15 | so will faith help the Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most | holy garden which He would make of it. For faith brings peace, and so |
| Tx:19.27 | perception, for it is sin that calls for punishment, not error. The | Holy Spirit cannot punish sin. Mistakes He recognizes and would |
| Tx:19.28 | help that you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In time the | Holy Spirit clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes. On this |
| Tx:19.32 | be split apart and overthrown. For sin would prove what God created | holy could not prevail against it nor remain itself before the power |
| Tx:19.33 | to His and in eternal opposition to Him and to each other. Your | holy relationship has as its purpose now the goal of proving this is |
| Tx:19.35 | In the | holy instant, you will see the smile of heaven shining on both of |
| Tx:19.35 | a union Heaven has smiled upon. Your perception was healed in the | holy instant Heaven gave you. Forget what you have seen and raise |
| Tx:19.35 | you now can see. The barriers to heaven will disappear before your | holy sight, for you who were sightless have been given vision, and |
| Tx:19.37 | them, extending past completely unhindered. The extension of the | Holy Spirit's purpose from your relationship to others to bring them |
| Tx:19.38 | placed before it. This will you do, for nothing undertaken with the | Holy Spirit remains unfinished. You can indeed be sure of nothing you |
| Tx:19.38 | of nothing you see outside you, but of this you can be sure: the | Holy Spirit asks that you offer Him a resting-place where you will |
| Tx:19.39 | are looking where He is and not apart from Him. You cannot see the | Holy Spirit, but you can see your brothers truly. And the light in |
| Tx:19.39 | When the peace in you has been extended to encompass everyone, the | Holy Spirit's function here will be accomplished. What need is there |
| Tx:19.39 | there for seeing then? When God has taken the last step Himself, the | Holy Spirit will gather all your thanks and gratitude which you have |
| Tx:19.39 | Him and lay them gently before His Creator in the name of His most | holy Son. And the Father will accept them in His Name. What need is |
| Tx:19.42 | The | Holy Spirit's purpose rests in peace within you. Yet you are still |
| Tx:19.43 | purpose apart from each other nor apart from the one you asked the | Holy Spirit to share with you. The little wall will fall away so |
| Tx:19.44 | who answered, He Who answered you would call. His home is in your | holy relationship. Do not attempt to stand between Him and His holy |
| Tx:19.44 | your holy relationship. Do not attempt to stand between Him and His | holy purpose, for it is yours. But let Him quietly extend the miracle |
| Tx:19.46 | settle briefly upon anything, for it has no purpose now. Before the | Holy Spirit entered to abide with you, it seemed to have a mighty |
| Tx:19.49 | the truth, for there it sees itself, with which it would unite in | holy union and completion. As love must look past fear, so must fear |
| Tx:19.53 | The | Holy Spirit has given you love's messengers to send instead of those |
| Tx:19.54 | If you send forth only the messengers the | Holy Spirit gives you, wanting no messages but theirs, you will see |
| Tx:19.54 | cannot ask love's messengers to remove from it and see it still. The | Holy Spirit has given you His messengers to send to each other and |
| Tx:19.55 | joyous whispering is ever heard. This is a feast which honors your | holy relationship and at which everyone is welcomed as an honored |
| Tx:19.55 | and at which everyone is welcomed as an honored guest. And in a | holy instant, grace is said by everyone together as they join in |
| Tx:19.61 | as murder. Here is the source of the idea that love is fear. The | Holy Spirit's messengers are sent far beyond the body, calling the |
| Tx:19.61 | messengers are sent far beyond the body, calling the mind to join in | holy communion and be at peace. Such is the message that I gave them |
| Tx:19.62 | suffer. Is it a sacrifice to be removed from what can suffer? The | Holy Spirit does not demand you sacrifice the hope of the body's |
| Tx:19.62 | can it bring you fear of pain. Pain is the only “sacrifice” the | Holy Spirit asks, and this He would remove. |
| Tx:19.63 | your Father, not a little mound of clay, to be your home. In your | holy relationship is your Father's Son. He has not lost communion |
| Tx:19.64 | is no obstacle which you can place before our union, for in your | holy relationship, I am there already. We will surmount all obstacles |
| Tx:19.66 | From your | holy relationship truth proclaims the truth, and love looks on |
| Tx:19.66 | which the Father and the Son are joined. Oh come ye faithful to the | holy union of the Father and Son in you! And keep you not apart from |
| Tx:19.67 | teaching freedom to each other and so releasing me. I am within your | holy relationship, yet you would imprison me behind the obstacles you |
| Tx:19.68 | Your little part is but to give the | Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the peace He |
| Tx:19.73 | invested is given by the sender and the receiver. The ego and the | Holy Spirit both recognize this, and both also recognize that here |
| Tx:19.73 | also recognize that here the sender and receiver are the same. The | Holy Spirit tells you this with joy. The ego hides it, for it would |
| Tx:19.76 | and what is offered must also be received to be truly given. For the | Holy Spirit, too, is a communication medium, receiving from the |
| Tx:19.76 | the Father and offering His messages unto the Son. Like the ego, the | Holy Spirit is both the sender and the receiver. For what is sent |
| Tx:19.77 | To you in whose special relationship the | Holy Spirit entered, it is given to release and be released from the |
| Tx:19.79 | dedication is not to death nor to its master. When you accepted the | Holy Spirit's purpose in place of the ego's, you renounced death, |
| Tx:19.82 | the body incorruptible and perfect as long as it is useful for your | holy purpose. The body no more dies than it can feel. It does |
| Tx:19.86 | you. Your newborn purpose is nursed by angels, cherished by the | Holy Spirit, and protected by God Himself. It needs not your |
| Tx:19.88 | with such seeming uncertainty of meaning, judge it not. Remember the | holy Presence of the One given to you to be the Source of judgment. |
| Tx:19.94 | And so it is with this. The desire to get rid of peace and drive the | Holy Spirit from you fades in the presence of the quiet recognition |
| Tx:19.98 | while and tremble not. You will be ready. Let us join together in a | holy instant, here in this place where the purpose given in a holy |
| Tx:19.98 | in a holy instant, here in this place where the purpose given in a | holy instant has led you. And let us join in faith that He Who |
| Tx:19.102 | each of you is one who offers you the chalice of Atonement, for the | Holy Spirit is in him. Would you hold his sins against him or accept |
| Tx:19.103 | Behold your Friend, the Christ Who stands beside you. How | holy and how beautiful He is! You thought He sinned because you cast |
| Tx:19.104 | that you cannot offer to each other and receive from your most | holy Friend. Let him withhold it not, for by receiving it you offer |
| Tx:19.105 | Here is the | holy place of resurrection to which we come again; to which we will |
| Tx:19.105 | is before you would condemn him. And offer thanks to God that he is | holy and has been given the gift of holiness for you. Join him in |
| Tx:19.106 | not separate in death. Behold the gift of freedom that I gave the | Holy Spirit for both of you. And be you free together, as you offer |
| Tx:19.106 | for both of you. And be you free together, as you offer to the | Holy Spirit this same gift. And giving it, receive it of Him in |
| Tx:19.106 | gave. He leadeth you and me together that we might meet here in this | holy place and make the same decision. |
| Tx:19.110 | they have a purpose. Yet it is given you to see this purpose in your | holy Friend and recognize it is your own. |
| Tx:20.1 | of victory and the acceptance of the truth. Let us not spend this | holy week brooding on the crucifixion of God's Son, but happily in |
| Tx:20.2 | This week begins with palms and ends with lilies, the white and | holy sign the Son of God is innocent. Let no dark sign of crucifixion |
| Tx:20.3 | rests on Christ, along with mine. A week is short, and yet this | holy week is the symbol of the whole journey the Son of God has |
| Tx:20.9 | you have asked for and received another sight. Those who accept the | Holy Spirit's purpose as their own share also His vision. And what |
| Tx:20.10 | them not. Nor can you use what I have given unless you share it. The | Holy Spirit's vision is no idle gift, no plaything to be tossed about |
| Tx:20.11 | of illusion that God Himself could give. For what God gave the | Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son of God looks unto you for his |
| Tx:20.13 | Would you not have your | holy brother lead you there? His innocence will light your way, |
| Tx:20.13 | you its guiding light and sure protection, and shining from the | holy altar within him where you laid the lilies of forgiveness. Let |
| Tx:20.15 | and the strength to lead you there. And come before each other's | holy altar where the strength and freedom wait, to offer and receive |
| Tx:20.17 | interference which makes it difficult for you to recognize your | holy relationship for what it is. |
| Tx:20.18 | The | holy do not interfere with truth. They are not afraid of it, for it |
| Tx:20.21 | Who in a | holy relationship can long remain unholy? The world the holy see is |
| Tx:20.21 | Who in a holy relationship can long remain unholy? The world the | holy see is one with them, just as the world the ego looks upon is |
| Tx:20.21 | just as the world the ego looks upon is like itself. The world the | holy see is beautiful because they see their innocence in it. They |
| Tx:20.22 | a purpose, but he will not remain before the shining light the | Holy Spirit offered and you accepted. For there the stranger is made |
| Tx:20.24 | shone in both of you to bless the other? That is the purpose of your | holy relationship. Ask not the means of its attainment of the one |
| Tx:20.27 | will lead the other to the Father as surely as God created His Son | holy and kept him so. In your brother is the light of God's eternal |
| Tx:20.28 | power at all. Power is of God, given by Him and reawakened by the | Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you give, you gain. He gives no power |
| Tx:20.28 | and misery and pain. These things have not occurred because the | Holy Spirit sees them not and gives no power to their seeming source. |
| Tx:20.28 | keep you free of them. Being without illusion of what you are, the | Holy Spirit merely gives everything to God, Who has already given and |
| Tx:20.29 | And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a lesson in giving, as the | Holy Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of the laws of God |
| Tx:20.33 | two by two, yet the beginning of another world goes with them. Each | holy relationship must enter here to learn its special function in |
| Tx:20.33 | relationship must enter here to learn its special function in the | Holy Spirit's plan, now that it shares His purpose. And as this |
| Tx:20.35 | one function that you would fulfill, there will be nothing else the | Holy Spirit will not arrange for you without your effort. |
| Tx:20.37 | In this world, God's Son comes closest to himself in a | holy relationship. There he begins to find the certainty his Father |
| Tx:20.38 | is the unity of love proclaimed and given welcome. Peace to your | holy relationship, which has the power to hold the unity of the Son |
| Tx:20.41 | is as little use to you as it is to him. When it is used only as the | Holy Spirit teaches, it has no function, for minds need not the body |
| Tx:20.41 | sight that sees the body has no use which serves the purpose of a | holy relationship. And while you look upon each other thus, the means |
| Tx:20.41 | and end have not been brought in line. Why should it take so many | holy instants to let this be accomplished, when one would do? There |
| Tx:20.42 | You look upon each | holy instant as a different point in time. It never changes. All that |
| Tx:20.44 | Be comforted and feel the | Holy Spirit watching over you in love and perfect confidence in what |
| Tx:20.46 | Nothing can show the contrast better than the experience of both a | holy and an unholy relationship. The first is based on love and rests |
| Tx:20.49 | The | Holy Spirit's temple is not a body, but a relationship. The body is |
| Tx:20.49 | in its idolatry. Here it is “safe,” for here love cannot enter. The | Holy Spirit does not build His temples where love can never be. Would |
| Tx:20.50 | You cannot make the body the | Holy Spirit's temple, and it will never be the seat of love. It is |
| Tx:20.51 | Your temple is not threatened. You are idolaters no longer. The | Holy Spirit's purpose lies safe in your relationship and not your |
| Tx:20.51 | have escaped the body. Where you are the body cannot enter, for the | Holy Spirit has set His temple there. |
| Tx:20.53 | Is this the substitute you want for the eternal blessing of the | holy instant and its unlimited beneficence? Is the malevolence of the |
| Tx:20.53 | and so invested in a false attraction, your preference to the | holy instant which offers you peace and understanding? Then lay aside |
| Tx:20.53 | transcend it, rising to welcome what you really want. And from His | holy temple, look you not back on what you have awakened from. For no |
| Tx:20.54 | The | holy relationship reflects the true relationship the Son of God has |
| Tx:20.54 | true relationship the Son of God has with his Father in reality. The | Holy Spirit rests within it in the certainty it will endure forever. |
| Tx:20.54 | to its own. Here the unholy instant is exchanged in gladness for the | holy one of safe return. Here is the way to true relationships held |
| Tx:20.56 | body or let himself be given freedom from it. Here he can accept the | holy instant, offered him to replace the unholy one he chose before. |
| Tx:20.56 | learning this may still be fearful, but you are not immobilized. The | holy instant is of greater value now to you than its unholy seeming |
| Tx:20.58 | of means and end and how these must be brought in line before your | holy relationship can bring you only joy. But we have also said the |
| Tx:20.58 | can bring you only joy. But we have also said the means to meet the | Holy Spirit's goal will come from the same Source as does His |
| Tx:20.60 | To obtain the goal, the | Holy Spirit indeed asked little. He asks no more to give the means as |
| Tx:20.65 | body is the sign that you lack vision and have denied the means the | Holy Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How can a holy |
| Tx:20.65 | the means the Holy Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How can a | holy relationship achieve its purpose through the means of sin? |
| Tx:20.65 | it cannot look on sin. And thus it leads you to reality. Your | holy brother, sight of whom is your release, is no illusion. Attempt |
| Tx:20.66 | not that his sinlessness is your escape from fear. Salvation is the | Holy Spirit's goal. The means is vision. For what the seeing look |
| Tx:20.67 | it was lost to you through your desire for something else. Open the | holy place which you closed off by valuing the “something else,” and |
| Tx:20.68 | you not willingly be free of misery and learn again of joy? Your | holy relationship offers all this to you. As it was given you, so |
| Tx:20.68 | this to you. As it was given you, so will be its effects. And as its | holy purpose was not made by you, the means by which its happy end is |
| Tx:20.69 | sinlessness is given you in shining light, to look on with the | Holy Spirit's vision and to rejoice in along with Him. For peace will |
| Tx:20.69 | for it with real desire and sincerity of purpose, shared with the | Holy Spirit and at one with Him on what salvation is. Be willing, |
| Tx:20.70 | The | Holy Spirit guarantees that what God willed and gave you shall be |
| Tx:20.70 | as you look upon each other, you will see an altar to your Father, | holy as Heaven, glowing with radiant purity and sparkling with the |
| Tx:20.70 | can the engine of destruction be preferred and chosen to replace the | holy home the Holy Spirit offers, where He will dwell with you? |
| Tx:20.70 | of destruction be preferred and chosen to replace the holy home the | Holy Spirit offers, where He will dwell with you? |
| Tx:20.72 | before you. All that could save you, you will never see. Your | holy relationship, the source of your salvation, will be deprived of |
| Tx:20.72 | source of your salvation, will be deprived of meaning, and its most | holy purpose bereft of means for its accomplishment. |
| Tx:20.76 | at all or merely judged against. Vision is the means by which the | Holy Spirit translates your nightmares into happy dreams; your wild |
| Tx:21.1 | is meaningless. Everything looked upon with vision is healed and | holy. Nothing perceived without it means anything. And where there is |
| Tx:21.13 | relationship transformed to joy; the little gift you offer to the | Holy Spirit for which He gives you everything; the very little on |
| Tx:21.17 | decide for God for you. This is the little gift you offer to the | Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by |
| Tx:21.18 | you see goes with it. Never was so much given for so little. In the | holy instant is this exchange effected and maintained. Here is the |
| Tx:21.22 | The | Holy Spirit can give you faith in holiness and vision to see it |
| Tx:21.23 | upon them, and what is really there you cannot fail to see. The | holy instant is not an instant of creation but of recognition. For |
| Tx:21.29 | from the accepted purpose of the relationship. And that is why the | Holy Spirit must change its purpose to make it useful to Him and |
| Tx:21.32 | the means by which the goal of holiness is reached. Through them the | Holy Spirit leads you to the real world and away from all illusions |
| Tx:21.34 | The | Holy Spirit has a use for all the means for sin by which you sought |
| Tx:21.34 | you might choose among your brothers and seek for sin with them. The | Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to teach you that the vision |
| Tx:21.34 | Spirit sees perception as a means to teach you that the vision of a | holy relationship is all you want to see. Then will you give your |
| Tx:21.37 | Those who believe in sin must think the | Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how they think their |
| Tx:21.37 | this is how they think their purpose is accomplished. Brothers, the | Holy Spirit knows that sacrifice brings nothing. He makes no |
| Tx:21.39 | Think you the | Holy Spirit is concerned with this? He gives not what it is His |
| Tx:21.40 | looked upon quite differently. You can have faith in it to serve the | Holy Spirit's goal and give it power to serve as means to help the |
| Tx:21.41 | The | Holy Spirit will never teach you that you are sinful. Errors He will |
| Tx:21.43 | themselves from their belief that their identity lies in the ego. A | holy relationship is one in which you join with what is part of you |
| Tx:21.44 | And what your reason tells you now, the ego would not hear. The | Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted by the part of your mind the ego |
| Tx:21.44 | knows no sin. How, otherwise, could it have been willing to see the | Holy Spirit's purpose as its own? |
| Tx:21.45 | you. And now you recognize that it was not the ego that joined the | Holy Spirit's purpose, and so there must be something else. Think not |
| Tx:21.46 | There is no inconsistency in what the | Holy Spirit teaches. This is the reasoning of the sane. You have |
| Tx:21.53 | you now, being eternal. You must have set aside a place in which the | Holy Spirit can abide and where He is. He must have been there since |
| Tx:21.55 | and you have gone past this. Reason is a means which serves the | Holy Spirit's purpose in its own right. It is not reinterpreted and |
| Tx:21.57 | in union with your Father's to the undoing of insanity. Here was the | Holy Spirit's purpose accepted and accomplished both at once. Reason |
| Tx:21.66 | in order to escape from reason. What madness would conceal, the | Holy Spirit still holds out for everyone to look upon with gladness. |
| Tx:21.82 | asks if you are willing to exchange the world of sin for what the | Holy Spirit sees, since it is this the world of sin denies. And |
| Tx:21.90 | What is the | holy instant but God's appeal to you to recognize what He has given |
| Tx:22.3 | A | holy relationship starts from a different premise. Each one has |
| Tx:22.4 | Think what a | holy relationship can teach! Here is belief in differences undone. |
| Tx:22.4 | circle where you recognize the Son of God. For what is born into a | holy relationship can never end. |
| Tx:22.11 | So in each | holy relationship is the ability to communicate instead of separate |
| Tx:22.11 | is the ability to communicate instead of separate reborn. Yet a | holy relationship, so recently reborn itself from an unholy |
| Tx:22.12 | Think what is given you, my | holy brothers. This child will teach you what you do not understand |
| Tx:22.14 | to deny illusions is to recognize that fear is meaningless. Into the | holy home, where fear is powerless, love enters thankfully, grateful |
| Tx:22.15 | For He is always drawn unto Himself. What is as like Him as a | holy relationship? And what draws you together draws Him to you. Here |
| Tx:22.15 | drawn to Christ is drawn to God as surely as both are drawn to every | holy relationship, the home prepared for them as earth is turned to |
| Tx:22.20 | Therefore, says reason, if escape from guilt was given to the | Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom nothing He wills can |
| Tx:22.21 | the ego must be made complete. For if you have the means to let the | Holy Spirit's purpose be accomplished, they can be used. And through |
| Tx:22.26 | for what he is if God would have it so. What God has given to your | holy relationship is there. For what He gave the Holy Spirit to give |
| Tx:22.26 | has given to your holy relationship is there. For what He gave the | Holy Spirit to give to you, He gave. Would you not look upon the |
| Tx:22.27 | it from the bright endless circle that extends forever is your | holy relationship, beloved of God Himself. How still it rests, in |
| Tx:22.27 | home with vision that overlooks the world. Would you not have this | holy home be yours as well? No misery is here, but only joy. |
| Tx:22.28 | the home of perfect purity, and God created it for you. Look on your | holy brother, sinless as yourself, and let him lead you there. |
| Tx:22.37 | A | holy relationship, however newly born, must value holiness above all |
| Tx:22.37 | as causing sin by his desire to have sin real. Yet reason sees a | holy relationship as what it is—a common state of mind, where both |
| Tx:22.40 | And so you stand, here in this | holy place, before the veil of sin that hangs between you and the |
| Tx:22.40 | from them into a darkened world that needs the light. And from this | holy place He will return with you, not leaving it nor you. You will |
| Tx:22.44 | it, he learned it was not given him alone. Such is the function of a | holy relationship—to receive together and give as you received. |
| Tx:22.44 | It is no solid wall. And only an illusion stands between you and the | holy Self you share. |
| Tx:22.46 | Belief in sin needs great defense and at enormous cost. All that the | Holy Spirit offers must be defended against and sacrificed. For sin |
| Tx:22.52 | Yet even in this confusion, so profound it cannot be described, the | Holy Spirit waits in gentle patience, as certain of the outcome as He |
| Tx:22.54 | This | holy relationship, lovely in its innocence, mighty in strength, and |
| Tx:22.54 | to it can be misused, and nothing given it but will be used. This | holy relationship has the power to heal all pain, regardless of its |
| Tx:22.55 | Before a | holy relationship there is no sin. The form of error is no longer |
| Tx:22.56 | laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you give the | Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are now His means must |
| Tx:22.58 | and only this.] Accept this one and serve it willingly, for what the | Holy Spirit does with the gifts you give each other, to whom He |
| Tx:22.59 | what your Father loves with charity? Extension of forgiveness is the | Holy Spirit's function. Leave this to Him. Let your concern be only |
| Tx:22.63 | conclude because you can attack you must be different. Yet does the | Holy Spirit explain this differently. Because you are not different, |
| Tx:22.64 | This is the function of your | holy relationship. For what one thinks the other will experience with |
| Tx:23.15 | And you who are beloved of Him are no illusions, being as true and | holy as Himself. |
| Tx:23.16 | of you, who dwell as one and not apart. Open the door of His most | holy home and let forgiveness sweep away all trace of the belief in |
| Tx:23.16 | everything is given those who would remember Him. Over His home the | Holy Spirit watches, sure that its peace can never be disturbed. |
| Tx:23.17 | The altar disappears, the light grows dim, the temple of the | Holy One becomes a house of sin. And nothing is remembered except |
| Tx:23.50 | your relationship is like the love of God. It cannot yet assume the | holy function God gave His Son, for your forgiveness of one another |
| Tx:23.50 | and the miracles you have the power to extend to all. Yet does the | Holy Spirit understand how to increase your little gifts and make |
| Tx:24.15 | you really are, how can you know the truth? What answer that the | Holy Spirit gives can reach you, when it is your specialness to which |
| Tx:24.20 | and His Heaven so remote that they cannot be reached. Here in this | holy place does truth stand waiting to receive you both in silent |
| Tx:24.25 | The key you threw away God gave your brother, whose | holy hands would offer it to you when you were ready to accept His |
| Tx:24.31 | malice of one thought of specialness to mar your rest. Forgive the | Holy One the specialness He could not give and which you made instead. |
| Tx:24.47 | and seek salvation in a war with love, consider this: the | holy Lord of Heaven has Himself come down to you to offer you your |
| Tx:24.52 | of God's Son is all the world is for. That is the only purpose the | Holy Spirit sees in it and thus the only one it has. Until you see |
| Tx:24.66 | as safely as itself. Nor will that light go out when it is gone. Its | holy purpose gave it immortality, setting another light in Heaven, |
| Tx:24.67 | till you go past learning to the Given; not till you make again a | holy home for your creations is it understood. |
| Tx:25.4 | through the mind at one with Him. And you are manifest unto your | holy brother, as he to you. Here is the meeting of the holy Christ |
| Tx:25.4 | unto your holy brother, as he to you. Here is the meeting of the | holy Christ unto Himself; nor are any differences perceived to stand |
| Tx:25.8 | may reach to you through what you understand. Father and Son and | Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in truth. |
| Tx:25.8 | understanding in the part of you that shares His Father's Will. The | Holy Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad desire to be separate, |
| Tx:25.9 | The | Holy Spirit serves Christ's purpose in your mind, so that the aim of |
| Tx:25.9 | perceived as one, aware that it is one and so experienced. It is the | Holy Spirit's function to teach you how this oneness is experienced, |
| Tx:25.17 | The | Holy Spirit is the frame God set around the part of Him that you |
| Tx:25.21 | and giving it you learn to understand His gift to you. And give the | Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the Son alike. Nothing |
| Tx:25.30 | must have been wrong. And thus is change made possible. The | Holy Spirit too sees what He sees as far beyond the chance of change. |
| Tx:25.46 | Such is the | Holy Spirit's kind perception of specialness—His use of what you |
| Tx:25.47 | is the only function meaningful in time. It is the means the | Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness from sin into salvation. |
| Tx:25.49 | The | Holy Spirit needs your special function that His may be fulfilled. |
| Tx:25.49 | salvation easily and well. The Son of God can make no choice the | Holy Spirit cannot employ on his behalf and not against himself. Only |
| Tx:25.50 | And if the | Holy Spirit can commute each sentence that you laid upon yourself |
| Tx:25.54 | The | Holy Spirit has the power to change the whole foundation of the world |
| Tx:25.61 | the rock on which salvation rests, the vantage point from which the | Holy Spirit gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your |
| Tx:25.63 | The | Holy Spirit can use all that you give to Him for your salvation. But |
| Tx:25.67 | and denies that it is real. It is impossible for you to share the | Holy Spirit's justice with a mind that can conceive of specialness at |
| Tx:25.67 | hard for those who still believe sin meaningful to understand the | Holy Spirit's justice. |
| Tx:25.68 | that their own belief in justice must entail. And so they fear the | Holy Spirit and perceive the “wrath” of God in Him. [They are unjust |
| Tx:25.69 | they think the loss of sin a curse. And flee [the blessing of] the | Holy Spirit as if He were a messenger from hell sent from above in |
| Tx:25.74 | As specialness cares not who pays the cost of sin, so it be paid, the | Holy Spirit heeds not who looks on innocence at last, provided it is |
| Tx:25.74 | if he sees truly. Simple justice asks no more. Of each one does the | Holy Spirit ask if he will be that one, so justice may return to love |
| Tx:25.75 | which you need comes not of you but from a larger Self, so great and | holy that He could not doubt His innocence. Your special function is |
| Tx:25.75 | sinlessness He shares. His understanding will be yours. And so the | Holy Spirit's special function has been fulfilled. God's Son has |
| Tx:25.75 | unto his sinlessness and not his sin. How little need you give the | Holy Spirit that simple justice may be given you! |
| Tx:25.76 | must be an injustice to them both, since they are equal in the | Holy Spirit's sight. Their Father gave the same inheritance to both. |
| Tx:25.77 | eternal, joyous and complete in every way, as God appointed for His | holy Son. This is the only justice Heaven knows, and all the Holy |
| Tx:25.77 | for His holy Son. This is the only justice Heaven knows, and all the | Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special function shows you nothing |
| Tx:25.80 | Be certain any answer to a problem the | Holy Spirit solves will always be one in which no one loses. And this |
| Tx:25.80 | it greater, harder to resolve, and more unfair. It is impossible the | Holy Spirit could see unfairness as a resolution. To Him, what is |
| Tx:25.81 | sight of innocence makes punishment impossible and justice sure. The | Holy Spirit's perception leaves no ground for an attack. Only a loss |
| Tx:25.82 | problem added to the first, in which the murder is not obvious. The | Holy Spirit's problem solving is the way in which the problem ends. |
| Tx:25.82 | but as God knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight the | Holy Spirit gives. |
| Tx:25.84 | God's Son be more unfair than he has sought to be. If miracles, the | Holy Spirit's gift, were given specially to an elect and special |
| Tx:25.84 | gift of healing and deliverance and peace. To give a problem to the | Holy Spirit to solve for you means that you want it solved. To keep |
| Tx:26.6 | its reality. Nor can you lose what you would sacrifice nor keep the | Holy Spirit from His task of showing you that it has not been lost. |
| Tx:26.7 | make your eyes and ears bear witness to the death of God and of His | holy Son, think not that you have power to make of them what God |
| Tx:26.9 | you back the gift of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the | Holy Spirit's special function but to release the holy Son of God |
| Tx:26.9 | you. What is the Holy Spirit's special function but to release the | holy Son of God from the imprisonment he made to keep himself from |
| Tx:26.10 | It is not difficult to understand the reasons why you do not ask the | Holy Spirit to solve all problems for you. He has not greater |
| Tx:26.11 | The | Holy Spirit offers you release from every problem that you think you |
| Tx:26.13 | It does injustice to the Son of God and therefore is not true. The | Holy Spirit does not evaluate injustices as great or small or more or |
| Tx:26.15 | you call forth will rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the | Holy Spirit be content until it is received by everyone. For what you |
| Tx:26.16 | will not want. And you will see each little hurt resolved before the | Holy Spirit's gentle sight. For all of them are little in His sight |
| Tx:26.27 | The | holy place on which you stand is but the space that sin has left. And |
| Tx:26.33 | you who still believe you live in time and know not it is gone, the | Holy Spirit still guides you through the infinitely small and |
| Tx:26.73 | the working out can seem to take forever. The change of purpose the | Holy Spirit brought to your relationship has in it all effects that |
| Tx:26.74 | of pain. This is a sacrifice of now, which could not be the cost the | Holy Spirit asks for what He gave without a cost at all. |
| Tx:26.76 | because its form is changed and what it is cannot be recognized. The | Holy Spirit's purpose now is yours. Should not His happiness be yours |
| Tx:26.77 | Think but how | holy you must be from whom the Voice for God calls lovingly unto your |
| Tx:26.77 | may awake in him the Voice that answers to your call! And think how | holy he must be when in him sleeps your own salvation with his |
| Tx:26.78 | you trade Them for an ancient hate? The ground whereon you stand is | holy ground because of Them Who, standing there with you, have |
| Tx:26.79 | hate has wrought have They undone. And now you stand on ground so | holy Heaven leans to join with it and make it like itself. The shadow |
| Tx:26.84 | and the Son return to what is Theirs and will forever be. Now is the | Holy Spirit's purpose done. For They have come! For They have come at |
| Tx:26.89 | And this you seek to add unto the purpose given it. The | Holy Spirit's purpose is to let the Presence of your holy Guests be |
| Tx:26.89 | given it. The Holy Spirit's purpose is to let the Presence of your | holy Guests be known to you. And to this purpose, nothing can be |
| Tx:26.89 | on it by rendering it purposeless, without the function that the | Holy Spirit sees. And simple justice has been thus denied to every |
| Tx:26.90 | without a purpose in a futile world. The world is fair because the | Holy Spirit has brought injustice to the light within, and there has |
| Tx:27.3 | you offer him you show yourself and give it all your faith. The | Holy Spirit offers you to give to him a picture of yourself in which |
| Tx:27.5 | perceived and loved. Now in the hands made gentle by His touch, the | Holy Spirit lays a picture of a different you. It is a picture of a |
| Tx:27.10 | a picture of the proof that what your function is can never be! The | Holy Spirit's picture changes not the body into something it is not. |
| Tx:27.12 | This thing without a purpose cannot hide the function that the | Holy Spirit gave. Let, then, its purpose and your function both be |
| Tx:27.20 | The “cost” of your serenity is his. This is the “price” the | Holy Spirit and the world interpret differently. The world perceives |
| Tx:27.20 | as a statement of the “fact” that your salvation sacrifices his. The | Holy Spirit knows your healing is the witness unto his and cannot be |
| Tx:27.21 | to prevent a shift of balance in the sacrifice. How could the | Holy Spirit be deterred an instant, even less, to reason with an |
| Tx:27.24 | perceive correction is the same as pardon, then you also know the | Holy Spirit's mind and yours are one. And so your own Identity is |
| Tx:27.26 | his presence is perceived as all of you. To this remaining half the | Holy Spirit must represent the other half until you recognize it is |
| Tx:27.27 | which cannot be shared, and so it cannot be the function which the | Holy Spirit sees as His. And you can rest assured that He will not |
| Tx:27.33 | the means by which the truth is represented temporarily. It lets the | Holy Spirit make exchange of pictures possible until the time when |
| Tx:27.37 | state of mind in which the answer is already there. Such is the | holy instant. It is here that all your problems should be brought and |
| Tx:27.38 | Attempt to solve no problems but within the | holy instant's surety. For there the problem will be answered and |
| Tx:27.41 | not want an honest answer where the conflict ends. Only within the | holy instant can an honest question honestly be asked. And from the |
| Tx:27.42 | is preserved intact because it gave the answer to itself. The | holy instant is the interval in which the mind is still enough to |
| Tx:27.43 | another question, though they leave the first unanswered. In the | holy instant, you can bring the question to the answer and receive |
| Tx:27.44 | what he does not have? And who can share what he denies himself? The | Holy Spirit speaks to you. He does not speak to someone else. Yet by |
| Tx:27.46 | The | holy instant is the miracle's abiding-place. From there each one is |
| Tx:27.47 | What stands apart from you when you accept the blessing that the | holy instant brings? Be not afraid of blessing, for the One Who |
| Tx:27.48 | Come to the | holy instant and be healed, for nothing that is there received is |
| Tx:27.48 | will accuse, but shine in thanks to you who blessing gave. The | holy instant's radiance will light your eyes and give them sight to |
| Tx:27.54 | It is a loud, obscuring voice whose shrieks would silence what the | Holy Spirit says and keep His words from your awareness. Pain compels |
| Tx:27.56 | he represents. And otherwise he lies, if you should call him by the | holy Name of God Himself. |
| Tx:27.61 | happiness, that you may demonstrate the healing of the world. The | holy instant will replace all sin if you but carry its effects with |
| Tx:27.74 | Rest in the | Holy Spirit and allow His gentle dreams to take the place of those |
| Tx:27.75 | Dream softly of your sinless brother, who unites with you in | holy innocence. And from this dream, the Lord of Heaven will Himself |
| Tx:27.85 | In gentle laughter does the | Holy Spirit perceive the cause and looks not to effects. How else |
| Tx:27.85 | removed. Perhaps you come in tears, but hear Him say, “My brother, | Holy Son of God, behold your idle dream in which this could occur,” |
| Tx:27.85 | your idle dream in which this could occur,” and you will leave the | holy instant with your laughter and your brother's joined with His. |
| Tx:27.87 | The | Holy Spirit will repeat this one inclusive lesson of deliverance |
| Tx:28.3 | memory, which is not used to interfere with truth. All things the | Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been given Him, without the |
| Tx:28.4 | The | Holy Spirit can indeed make use of memory, for God Himself is there. |
| Tx:28.5 | The | Holy Spirit's use of memory is quite apart from time. He does not |
| Tx:28.8 | This is the Cause the | Holy Spirit has remembered for you, when you would forget. It is not |
| Tx:28.25 | Like every lesson which the | Holy Spirit requests you learn, the miracle is clear. It demonstrates |
| Tx:28.43 | The | Holy Spirit is in both your minds, and He is One because there is no |
| Tx:28.43 | space between them vacant. And the Father comes to join His Son the | Holy Spirit joined. |
| Tx:28.44 | The | Holy Spirit's function is to take the broken picture of the Son of |
| Tx:28.44 | picture of the Son of God and put the pieces into place again. This | holy picture, healed entirely, does He hold out to every separate |
| Tx:28.45 | to close each little gap that lies between the broken pieces of Your | holy Son. Your holiness, complete and perfect, lies in every one of |
| Tx:28.45 | them. And they are joined because what is in one is in them all. How | holy is the smallest grain of sand when it is recognized as being |
| Tx:28.66 | it can be used to liberate God's Son unto his home. And with this | holy purpose is it made a home of holiness a little while because it |
| Tx:29.13 | because your Guest will welcome everyone whose feet have touched the | holy ground whereon you stand and where His gifts for them are laid. |
| Tx:29.24 | How | holy are you, that the Son of God can be your savior in the midst of |
| Tx:29.29 | of him, and there is no betrayal but of this. The core of dreams the | Holy Spirit gives is never one of fear. The coverings may not appear |
| Tx:29.32 | can intrude upon the sacred Son of God within. Here is the role the | Holy Spirit gives to you who wait upon the Son of God and would |
| Tx:29.36 | Why does it seem so hard to share this dream? Because unless the | Holy Spirit gives the dream its function, it was made for hate and |
| Tx:29.39 | Swear not to die, you | holy Son of God! You make a bargain that you cannot keep. The Son of |
| Tx:29.50 | of idols in a world made sad and sick by seeing idols there. Your | holy minds are altars unto God, and where He is, no idols can abide. |
| Tx:29.60 | but laugh if idols could intrude upon his peace. It is for him the | Holy Spirit speaks and tells you idols have no purpose here. For more |
| Tx:29.61 | no life and seek for power in the powerless. What happened to the | holy Son of God that this could be his wish—to let himself fall |
| Tx:30.33 | Do you not understand that to oppose the | Holy Spirit is to fight yourself? He tells you but your will; He |
| Tx:30.37 | the world is given freedom. Nor can you be free apart from Him Whose | holy will you share. God turns to you to ask the world be saved, for |
| Tx:30.42 | He has no need to seek for it at all. Beyond all idols stands his | holy will to be but what he is. For more than whole is meaningless. |
| Tx:30.48 | own. The star shines still; the sky has never changed. But you, the | holy Son of God Himself, are unaware of your reality. |
| Tx:30.82 | it cannot be that meaning changes constantly and yet is true. The | Holy Spirit looks upon the world as with one purpose, changelessly |
| Tx:30.87 | while the symbols which are used mean different things? The | Holy Spirit's goal gives one interpretation, meaningful to you and to |
| Tx:31.4 | from the first accomplishment of learning—an enormity so great the | Holy Spirit's Voice seems small and still before its magnitude. The |
| Tx:31.5 | for their learning is the only purpose for your learning skill the | Holy Spirit sees in all the world. His simple lessons in forgiveness |
| Tx:31.22 | hear a call that never has been made. Nothing will hurt you in this | holy place to which you come to listen silently and learn the truth |
| Tx:31.50 | beyond its roads nor realize the way you see yourself. Now must the | Holy Spirit find a way to help you see this concept of the self must |
| Tx:31.51 | Thus are the | Holy Spirit's lesson plans arranged in easy steps that though there |
| Tx:31.53 | self. And both would go if either one were ever raised to doubt. The | Holy Spirit does not seek to throw you into panic. So He merely asks |
| Tx:31.62 | the Spirit, and all Heaven bends to touch your eyes and bless your | holy sight, that you may see the world of flesh no more except to |
| Tx:31.67 | And what could hurt the truly innocent? Your will be done, you | holy Child of God. It does not matter if you think you are in earth |
| Tx:31.75 | hell. And to each one has He allowed the grace to be a savior to the | holy ones especially entrusted to his care. And this he learns when |
| Tx:31.77 | because a partial savior would be one who is but partly saved. The | holy ones whom God has given each of you to save are everyone you |
| Tx:31.78 | while you see him apart from yours? For holiness is seen through | holy eyes that look upon the innocence within and thus expect to see |
| Tx:31.83 | teach in all its forms wherever it occurs. It would persuade the | holy Son of God he is a body, born in what must die, unable to escape |
| Tx:31.88 | of Christ is powerless before His majesty and disappears before His | holy sight. The saviors of the world who see like Him are merely |
| Tx:31.95 | I thank You, Father, for these | holy ones who are my brothers as they are Your Sons. My faith in them |
| Tx:31.95 | because You gave it me on their behalf. And as I would but do Your | holy Will, so will they choose. And I give thanks for them. |
| W1:29.3 | Would you know what is in them? Nothing is as it appears to you. Its | holy purpose stands beyond your little range. When vision has shown |
| W1:35.9 | But my mind is part of God's. I am very | holy. |
| W1:36.1 | the idea for yesterday from the perceiver to the perceived. You are | holy because your mind is part of God's. And because you are holy, |
| W1:36.1 | You are holy because your mind is part of God's. And because you are | holy, your sight must be holy as well. “Sinless” means without sin. |
| W1:36.1 | mind is part of God's. And because you are holy, your sight must be | holy as well. “Sinless” means without sin. You cannot be without sin |
| W1:37.1 | nothing is taken away from anyone; everyone gains through your | holy vision. It signifies the end of sacrifice because it offers |
| W1:38.2 | anyone because it is equal in its power to save anyone. If you are | holy, so is everything God created. You are holy because all things |
| W1:38.2 | save anyone. If you are holy, so is everything God created. You are | holy because all things He created are holy. And all things He |
| W1:38.2 | God created. You are holy because all things He created are | holy. And all things He created are holy because you are. |
| W1:38.2 | all things He created are holy. And all things He created are | holy because you are. |
| W1:43.1 | of God. His is the realm of knowledge. Yet He has created the | Holy Spirit as the Mediator between perception and knowledge. Without |
| W1:43.1 | purified that it will lead to knowledge. That is its function as the | Holy Spirit sees it. Therefore, that is its function in truth. |
| W1:43.2 | holiness to his awareness. Perception has no meaning. Yet does the | Holy Spirit give it a meaning very close to God's. Healed perception |
| W1:43.3 | vision is real, and it is real to the extent to which it shares the | Holy Spirit's purpose, then you cannot see apart from God. |
| W1:44.8 | to you, and an awareness that you are attempting something very | holy. Salvation is your happiest accomplishment. It is also the only |
| W1:50.4 | and surety. Let no idle and foolish thoughts enter to disturb the | holy mind of the Son of God. Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Such is |
| W1:57.6 | [35] My mind is part of God's. I am very | holy. As I share the peace of the world with my brothers, I begin to |
| W1:63.1 | How | holy are you who have the power to bring peace to every mind! How |
| W1:64.2 | was the purpose of the body itself. Yet we have learned that the | Holy Spirit has another use for all the illusions you have made, and |
| W1:64.2 | you have made, and therefore He sees another purpose in them. To the | Holy Spirit, the world is a place where you learn to forgive yourself |
| W1:64.6 | from just this one simple choice. That is the only choice the | Holy Spirit sees. Therefore it is the only choice there is. |
| W1:65.4 | long range disciplinary training which your mind needs, so that the | Holy Spirit can use it consistently for the purpose He shares with |
| W1:66.2 | The ego does constant battle with the | Holy Spirit on the fundamental question of what your function is. So |
| W1:66.2 | of what your function is. So does it do constant battle with the | Holy Spirit about what your happiness is. It is not a two-way battle. |
| W1:66.2 | happiness is. It is not a two-way battle. The ego attacks and the | Holy Spirit does not respond. He knows what your function is. He |
| W1:66.9 | by the ego and is made up of illusions. The other is the home of the | Holy Spirit, where truth abides. There are no other guides but these |
| W1:66.9 | but the fear which the ego always engenders and the love which the | Holy Spirit always offers to replace it. |
| W1:66.12 | the ego ever proposed. Yet the ego is the only alternative to the | Holy Spirit's Voice. You will listen to madness or hear the truth. |
| W1:67.3 | Holiness created me | holy. Kindness created me kind. Helpfulness created me helpful. |
| W1:75.9 | that your forgiveness entitles you to vision. Understand that the | Holy Spirit never fails to give the gift of sight to the forgiving. |
| W1:77.6 | The | Holy Spirit cannot but assure you that your request is granted. The |
| W1:78.6 | He who was enemy is more than friend when he is freed to take the | holy role the Holy Spirit has assigned to him. Let him be savior unto |
| W1:78.6 | enemy is more than friend when he is freed to take the holy role the | Holy Spirit has assigned to him. Let him be savior unto you today. |
| W1:78.8 | in the light of true forgiveness given unto us. We ask Him in the | holy Name of God and of His Son, as holy as Himself: |
| W1:78.8 | given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God and of His Son, as | holy as Himself: |
| W1:78.9 | one You have appointed as the one for me to ask to lead me to the | holy light In which he stands, that I may join with him. |
| W1:78.10 | long for this. He would be free and make his freedom yours. The | Holy Spirit leans from him to you, seeing no separation in God's Son. |
| W1:78.11 | No dark grievances obscure the sight of him. You have allowed the | Holy Spirit to express through him the role God gave Him that you |
| W1:78.11 | you laid your images aside and looked upon the miracle of love the | Holy Spirit showed you in their place. The world and Heaven join in |
| W1:80.2 | You have recognized your only problem, opening the way for the | Holy Spirit to give you God's answer. You have laid deception aside |
| W1:81.2 | [61] I am the light of the world. How | holy am I, who have been given the function of lighting up the world! |
| W1:89.5 | replace all grievances. By this idea do I unite my will with the | Holy Spirit's and perceive them as one. By this idea do I accept my |
| W1:90.5 | with the problem, so that they cannot be separated by time. The | Holy Spirit will teach me this if I will let Him. And I will |
| W1:91.9 | If you are not a body, what are you? You need to be aware of what the | Holy Spirit uses to replace the image of a body in your mind. You |
| W1:93.4 | done, that all your “sins” are nothing, that you are as pure and | holy as you were created, and that light and joy and peace abide in |
| W1:95.9 | The | Holy Spirit is not delayed in His teaching by your mistakes. He can |
| W1:95.17 | with all there is and all that there will be. You are One Self, the | holy Son of God, united with your brothers in this Self, united with |
| W1:95.18 | cast all your illusions out of the One Mind which is this Self, the | holy truth in you. |
| W1:96.8 | and they remain within your mind and in the Mind of God. The | Holy Spirit holds salvation in your mind and offers it the way to |
| W1:97.2 | We state again the truth about your Self, the | holy Son of God who rests in you whose mind has been restored to |
| W1:97.6 | The | Holy Spirit will be glad to take five minutes of each hour from your |
| W1:97.8 | Begin these happy exercises with the words the | Holy Spirit speaks to you, and let them echo round the world through |
| W1:97.9 | Spirit am I, a | holy Son of God, free of all limits, safe and healed and whole, free |
| W1:97.10 | Expressed through you, the | Holy Spirit will accept this gift which you received of Him, increase |
| W1:97.12 | if you yield to the belief that you are something else. The | Holy Spirit gives you peace today. Receive His words, and offer them |
| W1:99.5 | The | Holy Spirit holds this plan of God exactly as it was received of Him |
| W1:99.5 | in time because of your belief that time is real. Unshaken does the | Holy Spirit look on what you see—on sin and pain and death, on |
| W1:104.2 | all meaningless and self-made gifts which we have placed upon the | holy altar where God's gifts belong. These are the gifts which are |
| W1:104.7 | We clear a | holy place within our minds before His altar, where His gifts of |
| W1:106.11 | a thousand minds are opened to the truth. And they will hear the | holy Word you hear. And when the hour is past, you will again release |
| W1:106.12 | Today the | holy Word of God is kept through your receiving it to give away, so |
| W1:109.9 | one, bringing everyone into the boundless circle of your peace, the | holy sanctuary where you rest. |
| W1:110.8 | in your mind, try to discover in your mind the Self Who is the | holy Son of God Himself. Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, |
| W1:110.9 | instead of what He is be worshiped not today. Deep in your mind the | holy Christ in you is waiting your acknowledgment as you. And you are |
| W1:110.11 | Him. And we will say, that we may be reminded of His Son, our | holy Self, the Christ in each of us: |
| W1:R3.6 | but what is in your mind? Have faith in these reviews, the means the | Holy Spirit uses will not fail. The wisdom of your mind will come to |
| W1:R3.7 | same trust and confidence and faith. It will not fail. It is the | Holy Spirit's chosen means for your salvation. Since it has His |
| W1:R3.12 | then, to take it with you in the business of the day and make it | holy, worthy of God's Son, acceptable to God and to your Self. |
| W1:123.7 | you offer thanks, and Whom He thanks as you are thanking Him. This | holy half an hour given Him will be returned to you in terms of years |
| W1:124.2 | How | holy are our minds! And everything we see reflects the holiness |
| W1:124.10 | tomorrow, you will see your own transfiguration in the glass this | holy half an hour will hold out to you to look upon yourself. When |
| W1:124.11 | cannot understand, a joy too deep for you to comprehend, a sight too | holy for the body's eyes to see, and yet you can be sure someday, |
| W1:125.3 | without our personal desires, and without all judgment of His | holy Word. We will not judge ourselves today, for what we are cannot |
| W1:125.4 | Hear, | holy Son of God, your Father speak. His Voice would give to you His |
| W1:125.4 | holy Son of God, your Father speak. His Voice would give to you His | holy Word to spread across the world the tidings of salvation and the |
| W1:125.4 | Word to spread across the world the tidings of salvation and the | holy time of peace. We gather at the throne of God today, the quiet |
| W1:125.6 | within you to be called upon today to help make ready your most | holy mind to hear the Voice of its Creator speak. |
| W1:128.6 | free its wings, and it will fly in sureness and in joy to join its | holy purpose. Let it rest in its Creator, there to be restored to |
| W1:131.14 | you think are true. Then let them go, and sink below them to the | holy place where they can enter not. There is a door beneath them in |
| W1:131.17 | Today that day has come. Today God keeps His ancient promise to His | holy Son, as does His Son remember his to Him. This is a day of |
| W1:135.20 | and with joy which constantly increases as this life becomes a | holy instant, set in time but heeding only immortality. Let no |
| W1:135.29 | This is my Eastertime. And I would keep it | holy. I will not defend myself, because the Son of God needs no |
| W1:137.9 | for a world where sadness cannot enter, are the means by which the | Holy Spirit urges you to follow Him. His gentle lessons teach how |
| W1:138.7 | the choice that time was made to help us make. Such is its | holy purpose, now transformed from the intent you gave it, that it be |
| W1:139.7 | asked of you, for what you are is certain. It is set forever in the | holy Mind of God and in your own. It is so far beyond all doubt and |
| W1:139.8 | a statement which denies itself in statement? Let us not allow our | holy minds to occupy themselves with senseless musings such as this. |
| W1:139.13 | hour, as we lay aside all thoughts that would distract us from our | holy aim. For several minutes let your mind be cleared of all the |
| W1:139.13 | of all the foolish cobwebs which the world would weave around the | holy Son of God. And learn the fragile nature of the chains that seem |
| W1:140.3 | The happy dreams the | Holy Spirit brings are different from the dreaming of the world, |
| W1:140.5 | and holiness cannot be found where sin is cherished. God abides in | holy temples. He is barred where sin has entered. Yet there is no |
| W1:151.7 | witness to God's Son. He recognizes only what God loves, and in the | holy light of what He sees do all the ego's dreams of what you are |
| W1:151.8 | of sin, unheeding of the body's witnesses before the rapture of His | holy face. |
| W1:151.12 | body and the world, past every witness for unholiness, within the | Holy, holy as Itself. In everyone and everything, His Voice would |
| W1:151.12 | and the world, past every witness for unholiness, within the Holy, | holy as Itself. In everyone and everything, His Voice would speak to |
| W1:151.12 | your Self and your Creator, Who is one with Him. So will you see the | holy face of Christ in everything and hear in everything no sound |
| W1:151.15 | thoughts are purified. So are you taught to teach the Son of God the | holy lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you hear |
| W1:151.17 | As we give thanks the world unites with us and happily accepts our | holy thoughts which Heaven has corrected and made pure. Now has our |
| W1:153.5 | You do not realize what you have done to sabotage the | holy peace of God by your defensiveness. For you behold the Son of |
| W1:153.9 | sure we will fulfill our chosen purpose as our ministry extends its | holy blessing through the world. |
| W1:153.10 | Be still a moment, and in silence think how | holy is your purpose, how secure you rest, untouchable within its |
| W1:153.13 | our quaint and childish thoughts of sin forever from the pure and | holy minds of Heaven's children and the Son of God. We pause but for |
| W1:154.15 | The world recedes as we light up our minds and realize these | holy words are true. They are the message sent to us today from our |
| W1:155.8 | no cost, but only gain. Illusion can but seem to hold in chains the | holy Son of God. It is but from illusions he is saved. As they step |
| W1:155.9 | still to walk ahead of truth and let illusions be your guide. Your | holy brothers have been given you to follow in your footsteps as you |
| W1:155.10 | with nothing left to keep the truth apart from God's completion, | holy as Himself. Step back in faith, and let truth lead the way. You |
| W1:155.11 | door on all the things that pass, and miracles are purposeless, the | holy Son of God will make no journeys. There will be no wish to be |
| W1:155.12 | give you more than everything or offer less and still content the | holy Son of God? We walk to God. The truth that walks before us now |
| W1:156.3 | of His remains unshared by everything that lives. What lives is | holy as Himself because what shares His life is part of Holiness and |
| W1:156.4 | There is a Light in you Which cannot die, Whose Presence is so | holy that the world is sanctified because of you. All things that |
| W1:156.4 | may walk in softness, while the wind sinks to a whisper round your | holy head. |
| W1:157.1 | light upon this day when echoes of eternity are heard. This day is | holy, for it ushers in a new experience, a different kind of feeling |
| W1:157.3 | every lesson, faithfully rehearsed, brings you more swiftly to this | holy place and leaves you for a moment to your Self. |
| W1:157.5 | will so transform your mind that it becomes the touchstone for the | holy thoughts of God. |
| W1:157.8 | Today we will embark upon a course you have not dreamed of. But the | Holy One, the Giver of the happy dreams of life, Translator of |
| W1:157.8 | the happy dreams of life, Translator of perception into truth, the | holy Guide to Heaven given you has dreamed for you this journey which |
| W1:158.5 | and His are joined in knowledge. Yet there is a vision which the | Holy Spirit sees because the mind of Christ beholds it too. |
| W1:158.6 | with the intangible. Here is a quiet place within the world made | holy by forgiveness and by love. Here are all contradictions |
| W1:158.11 | love. We practice seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the | holy gifts we give, Christ's vision looks upon ourselves as well. |
| W1:159.5 | can you safely trust to carry you from this world into one made | holy by forgiveness. Things which seem quite solid here are merely |
| W1:159.6 | This is the | Holy Spirit's single gift—the treasure house to which you can |
| W1:159.8 | Christ's vision is the | holy ground in which the lilies of forgiveness set their roots. This |
| W1:161.3 | now it is specifics we must use in practicing. We give them to the | Holy Spirit that He may employ them for a purpose which is different |
| W1:161.9 | And in Christ's vision is his loveliness reflected in a form so | holy and so beautiful that you could scarce refrain from kneeling at |
| W1:161.14 | Give me your blessing, | holy Son of God. I would behold you with the eyes of Christ, and see |
| W1:162.3 | Holy indeed is he who makes these words his own—arising with them | |
| W1:163.4 | to rest beneath the headstone death has placed upon the body of the | holy Son of God. |
| W1:164.3 | How | holy is your practicing today, as Christ gives you His sight and |
| W1:164.8 | and offer you the treasure of salvation. He has need of your most | holy mind to save the world. |
| W1:167.10 | Let us today be children of the truth and not deny our | holy heritage. Our life is not as we imagine it. Who changes life |
| W1:167.11 | His | holy home we strive to keep today, as He established it and wills it |
| W1:167.12 | a Source from Which perfection comes to us, remaining always in the | holy minds which He created perfect. As we were, so are we now and |
| W1:168.5 | It is a new and | holy day today, for we receive what has been given us. Our faith lies |
| W1:169.1 | it can be gently laid and willingly received, an altar clean and | holy for the gift. |
| W1:169.6 | beyond salvation—past all thought of time, forgiveness, and the | holy face of Christ. The Son of God has merely disappeared into His |
| W1:169.11 | It is here that miracles are laid, to be returned by you from | holy instants you receive through grace in your experience to all who |
| W1:170.14 | complete. In them we see Your glory, and in them we find our peace. | Holy are we because Your holiness has set us free. And we give |
| W1:R5.2 | Steady our feet, our Father; let our doubts be quiet and our | holy minds be still, and speak to us. We have no words to give to |
| W1:R5.4 | more meaningful, more personal and true, and more descriptive of the | holy Self we share and now prepare to know again: |
| W1:176.2 | [161] Give me your blessing, | holy Son of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:181.10 | our love for everyone we look upon attests to our remembrance of the | holy Self Which knows no sin and never could conceive of anything |
| W1:182.4 | an innocence that will endure forever. Where this Child shall go is | holy ground. It is His holiness that lights up Heaven and that brings |
| W1:182.5 | —just an interval in which He can return to breathe again the | holy air that fills His Father's house. You are His home as well. He |
| W1:182.12 | is the Voice you hear, and this the Call which cannot be denied. The | holy Child remains with you. His home is yours. Today He gives you |
| W1:183.1 | God's Name is | holy, but no holier than yours. To call upon His Name is but to call |
| W1:183.5 | the nameless for the Name, nor sin for grace, nor bodies for the | holy Son of God. |
| W1:183.11 | things he thought he made be nameless now, and in their place the | holy Name of God becomes his judgment of their worthlessness. |
| W1:183.12 | upon his Father. And his Father's Voice gives answer in his Father's | holy Name. In this eternal, still relationship, in which |
| W1:184.11 | the world of darkness. Yet accept them not as your reality. The | Holy Spirit uses all of them, but He does not forget Creation has One |
| W1:186.6 | cannot tarnish the truth in you, and misery can come not near the | holy home of God. |
| W1:186.7 | on you and not upon this little pile of dust. What can it tell the | holy Son of God? Why need he be concerned with it at all? |
| W1:187.11 | have it be withheld from anything we look upon. And to ensure this | holy sight is ours, we offer it to everything we see. For where we |
| W1:188.6 | by the dream of worldly things outside yourself, become the | holy messengers of God Himself. These thoughts you think with Him. |
| W1:189.2 | the day and watches through the night as silent guardian of your | holy sleep. It sees salvation in you and protects the light in you in |
| W1:190.5 | are. As you perceive the harmlessness in them, they will accept your | holy will as theirs. And what was seen as fearful now becomes a |
| W1:190.6 | My | holy brothers, think of this awhile—the world you see does nothing. |
| W1:190.6 | the joy of God as what you really want. Your Self is radiant in this | holy joy, unchanged, unchanging, and unchangeable forever and |
| W1:190.8 | Pain is the thought of evil taking form and working havoc in your | holy mind. Pain is the ransom you have gladly paid not to be free. In |
| W1:191.6 | One | holy thought like this, and you are free: you are the holy Son of God |
| W1:191.6 | One holy thought like this, and you are free: you are the | holy Son of God Himself. And with this holy thought, you learn as |
| W1:191.6 | and you are free: you are the holy Son of God Himself. And with this | holy thought, you learn as well that you have freed the world. You |
| W1:191.8 | I am the | holy Son of God Himself. I cannot suffer, cannot be in pain; I cannot |
| W1:191.12 | Then let the Son of God awaken from his sleep, and opening his | holy eyes return again to bless the world he made. In error it began. |
| W1:191.13 | on you. They die till you accept your own eternal life. You are the | holy Son of God Himself. Remember this and all the world is free. |
| W1:192.1 | It is your Father's | holy will that you complete Himself and that your Self shall be His |
| W1:192.6 | Only forgiveness can restore the peace that God intended for His | holy Son. Only forgiveness can persuade the Son to look again upon |
| W1:193.3 | no forgiveness, for He knows no sin is possible. And yet He let His | holy law of Love be given form in which it could be offered to the |
| W1:193.4 | replace the foolish thoughts which crept into the mind of His most | holy Son with peace and joy fulfills His function now. He redirects |
| W1:193.9 | These are the words the | Holy Spirit speaks in all your tribulations, all your pain, all |
| W1:193.13 | thorn or nail to hurt His sacred Son in any way. He would ensure his | holy rest remain untroubled and serene, without a care in an eternal |
| W1:194.5 | Then is each instant, which was slave to time, transformed into a | holy instant when the light that was kept hidden in God's Son is |
| W1:196.8 | God, Whom you had thought to banish, can be welcomed back within the | holy mind He never left. |
| W1:196.12 | gone, there are no obstacles that still remain between you and the | holy peace of God. How kind and merciful is the idea we practice! |
| W1:197.8 | Thanks be to you, the | holy Son of God, for as you were created you contain all things |
| W1:197.9 | All that you think can only be His thoughts, sharing with Him the | holy thoughts of God. Earn now the gratitude you have denied yourself |
| W1:198.8 | attack! How mad to think that you could be condemned and that the | holy Son of God can die! The stillness of your Self remains unmoved, |
| W1:198.12 | appears unveiled at last in this one dream. This is the gift the | Holy Spirit holds for you from God your Father. Let today be |
| W1:198.12 | God your Father. Let today be celebrated both on earth and in your | holy home as well. Be kind to both, as you forgive the trespasses you |
| W1:199.2 | The mind that serves the | Holy Spirit is unlimited forever, in all ways, beyond the laws of |
| W1:199.4 | body disappears because you have no need of it except the need the | Holy Spirit sees. For this, the body will appear as useful form for |
| W1:199.6 | The | Holy Spirit is the home of minds that seek for freedom. In Him they |
| W1:199.6 | it is a worthy servant of the freedom which the mind within the | Holy Spirit seeks. |
| W1:199.7 | believe they are enslaved within a body. Be you free, so that the | Holy Spirit can make use of your escape from bondage to set free the |
| W1:199.8 | you not return your mind to this? Then practice well the thought the | Holy Spirit gives you for today. Your brothers stand released with |
| W1:R6.2 | start our practicing in which we carefully review the thoughts the | Holy Spirit has bestowed on us in our last 20 lessons. Each contains |
| W1:211.1 | [191] I am the | holy Son of God Himself. In silence and in true humility, I seek |
| W1:215.1 | [195] Love is the way I walk in gratitude. The | Holy Spirit is my only Guide. He walks with me in love. And I give |
| W2:I.3 | will not content ourselves with simple practicing in the remaining | holy instants which conclude the year that we have given God. We say |
| W2:I.6 | I am so close to you we cannot fail. Father, we give these | holy times to You in gratitude to Him Who taught us how to leave the |
| W2:I.7 | keep. We will with You in asking this. The Father and the Son, Whose | holy will created all that is, can fail in nothing. In this |
| W2:I.8 | And so we start upon the final part of this one | holy year which we have spent together in the search for truth and |
| W2:I.11 | slowly read and thought about a little while, preceding one of the | holy and blessed instants in the day. We give the first of these |
| W2:223.2 | see the face of Christ instead of our mistakes. For we who are Your | holy Son are sinless. We would look upon our sinlessness, for guilt |
| W2:227.1 | the feet of truth, to be removed forever from my mind. This is my | holy instant of release. Father, I know my will is one with Yours. |
| W2:229.1 | waited for my coming home that I will turn away no longer from the | holy face of Christ. And what I look upon attests the truth of the |
| W2:WS.3 | go down to dust. And what they hid is now revealed—an altar to the | holy Name of God whereon His Word is written, with the gifts of your |
| W2:WS.4 | Let us come daily to this | holy place and spend a while together. Here we share our final dream. |
| W2:234.1 | when dreams of sin and guilt are gone and we have reached again the | holy peace we never left. Merely a tiny instant has elapsed between |
| W2:236.1 | in it. My mind can only serve. Today I give its service to the | Holy Spirit to employ as He sees fit. I thus direct my mind, which I |
| W2:248.1 | myself. Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the | holy Son of God. Now am I ready to accept him back as God created |
| W2:250.1 | of God today and witness to his glory. Let me not try to obscure the | holy light in him and see his strength diminished and reduced to |
| W2:WIS.5 | unchanged. Would you still hold return to Heaven back? How long, oh | holy Son of God, how long? |
| W2:252.1 | My Self is | holy beyond all the thoughts of holiness of which I now conceive. Its |
| W2:253.1 | this world to my creations, children of my Will, in Heaven where my | holy Self abides with them and Him Who has created me. |
| W2:260.2 | Source remembered, and therein we find our true Identity at last. | Holy indeed are we because our Source can know no sin. And we who are |
| W2:WIB.4 | and to help him walk along the road with him. Now is the body | holy. Now it serves to heal the mind that it was made to kill. |
| W2:262.1 | You Who are our Source, eternally united in Your Love, eternally the | holy Son of God. |
| W2:263.2 | remain outside the gate of Heaven, let us look on all we see through | holy vision and the eyes of Christ. Let all appearances seem pure to |
| W2:263.2 | and walk together to our Father's house as brothers and the | holy Sons of God. |
| W2:266.1 | to be my saviors and my counselors in sight—the bearers of Your | holy Voice to me. In them are You reflected, and in them does Christ |
| W2:266.1 | Christ look back upon me from my Self. Let not Your Son forget Your | holy Name. Let not Your Son forget his holy Source. Let not Your Son |
| W2:266.1 | Let not Your Son forget Your holy Name. Let not Your Son forget his | holy Source. Let not Your Son forget Your name is his. |
| W2:266.2 | and on our own, acknowledging our Self in each of us, united in the | holy Love of God. How many saviors God has given us! How can we lose |
| W2:269.1 | me that what I look upon belongs to me, that nothing is except Your | holy Son. |
| W2:270.2 | through His sight, we offer healing to the world through Him, the | holy Son whom God created whole, the holy Son whom God created one. |
| W2:270.2 | to the world through Him, the holy Son whom God created whole, the | holy Son whom God created one. |
| W2:WIC.1 | still abides within the Mind That is His Source. He has not left His | holy home nor lost the innocence in which He was created. He abides |
| W2:WIC.3 | Home of the | Holy Spirit and at home in God alone, does Christ remain at peace |
| W2:WIC.3 | in God alone, does Christ remain at peace within the Heaven of your | holy mind. This is the only part of you that has reality in truth. |
| W2:WIC.3 | dreams be given unto Christ to fade before His glory and reveal your | holy Self, the Christ, to you at last. |
| W2:WIC.4 | The | Holy Spirit reaches from the Christ in you to all your dreams and |
| W2:WIC.5 | And how long will this | holy face be seen, when it is but the symbol that the time for |
| W2:WIC.5 | no need of learning or perception or of time, or anything except the | holy Self, the Christ Whom God created as His Son. |
| W2:276.1 | What is the Word of God? “My Son is pure and | holy as Myself.” And thus did God become the Father of the Son He |
| W2:WIHS.1 | The | Holy Spirit mediates between illusions and the truth. As He must |
| W2:WIHS.2 | The goal the | Holy Spirit's teaching sets is just this end of dreams. For sights |
| W2:WIHS.2 | has achieved the only goal it has in truth. For learning, as the | Holy Spirit guides it to the outcome He perceives for it, becomes the |
| W2:WIHS.3 | from His replacement for the fearful images and dreams you made. The | Holy Spirit understands the means you made, by which you would attain |
| W2:WIHS.4 | From knowledge, where He has been placed by God, the | Holy Spirit calls to you to let forgiveness rest upon your dreams and |
| W2:WIHS.5 | gift. It is a call from Love to Love that it be but itself. The | Holy Spirit is His gift by Which the quietness of Heaven is restored |
| W2:288.2 | you behold your brother in the light of holiness. He cannot be less | holy than can I, and you cannot be holier than he. |
| W2:WIRW.5 | The | Holy Spirit has no need of time when it has served His purpose. Now |
| W2:293.1 | and its effects apparent. All the world shines in reflection of its | holy light, and I perceive a world forgiven at last. |
| W2:293.2 | Father, let not Your | holy world escape my sight today. Nor let my ears be deaf to all the |
| W2:295.2 | given me. Help me to use the eyes of Christ today and thus allow the | Holy Spirit's love to bless all things that I may look upon, that His |

| W2:296.1 | I would set it free that I may find escape and hear the Word Your | holy Voice will speak to me today. |
| W2:296.2 | possible of easy reach and quick accomplishment. How gladly does the | Holy Spirit come to rescue us from hell when we allow His teaching to |
| W2:298.1 | thus am I restored to my reality at last. All that intruded on my | holy sight forgiveness takes away. And I draw near the end of |

| W2:WISC.5 | Let us rejoice that we can do God's Will and join together in its | holy light. Behold, the Son of God is one in us, and we can reach our |
| W2:302.1 | Father, our eyes are opening at last. Your | holy world awaits us, as our sight is finally restored and we can |
| W2:302.1 | for fear must disappear when love has come. Let me forgive Your | holy world today that I may look upon its holiness and understand it |
| W2:303.1 | Watch with me, angels; watch with me today. Let all God's | holy thoughts surround me and be still with me while Heaven's Son is |
| W2:304.1 | I can obscure my | holy sight if I intrude my world upon it. Nor can I behold the holy |
| W2:304.1 | my holy sight if I intrude my world upon it. Nor can I behold the | holy sights Christ looks upon unless it is His vision that I use. |
| W2:304.2 | for the world. It is Your gift, my Father, given me to offer to Your | holy Son that he may find again the memory of You and of Your Son as |
| W2:306.2 | we return to You, remembering we never went away, remembering Your | holy gifts to us. In gratitude and thankfulness, we come, with empty |

| W2:307.2 | silently into a state where conflict cannot come because we join our | holy will with God's in recognition that they are but one. |
| W2:309.2 | dreams of sin. Your altar stands serene and undefiled. It is the | holy altar to my Self, and there I find my true Identity. |
| W2:310.1 | Your sweet reminder to remember You, Your gracious calling to Your | holy Son, the sign Your grace has come to me and that it is Your will |

| W2:WILJ.5 | This is God's Final Judgment: “You are still My | holy Son, forever innocent, forever loving and forever loved, as |

| W2:313.2 | save the world when we are joined. For in our vision it becomes as | holy as the light in us. |
| W2:314.2 | You will keep Your present promises and guide the future in their | holy light. |

| W2:318.1 | In me, God's | holy Son, are reconciled all parts of Heaven's plan to save the |
| W2:320.1 | What he wills with his Creator and Redeemer must be done. His | holy will can never be denied because his Father shines upon his mind |
| W2:WICR.3 | of all illusions, for creation is the truth. Creation is the | holy Son of God, for in creation is His Will complete in every |
| W2:WICR.3 | Its oneness is forever guaranteed inviolate, forever held within His | holy will beyond all possibility of harm, of separation, |
| W2:WICR.4 | all Its thought, Its sureness being theirs. God's memory is in our | holy minds, which know their oneness and their unity with their |

| W2:326.2 | at first transformed, and then, forgiven, fade entirely into God's | holy Will. |
| W2:WIE.5 | the shrine of Life Itself. And peace will be restored forever to the | holy minds which God created as His Son, His dwelling-place, His joy, |
| W2:331.2 | us that God's Will is one and that we share it. Let us look upon the | holy sights forgiveness shows today that we may find the peace of |
| W2:335.1 | my own. And I will see it, having chosen to behold my brother in its | holy light. |
| W2:340.1 | today and for the freedom I am certain it will bring. This day is | holy, for today Your Son will be redeemed. His suffering is done. For |
| W2:340.1 | to achieve this day and what it holds in joy and freedom for Your | holy Son and for the world he made, which is released along with him |
| W2:341.1 | Father, Your Son is | holy. I am he on whom You smile in love and tenderness so deep and |
| W2:WAI.1 | fear impossible, and joy established without opposite. I am the | holy home of God Himself. I am the Heaven where His love resides. I |
| W2:WAI.1 | of God Himself. I am the Heaven where His love resides. I am His | holy sinlessness itself, for in my purity abides His own. |
| W2:WAI.5 | We are the | holy messengers of God who speak for Him, and carrying His Word to |
| W2:351.1 | Who is my brother but Your | holy Son? And if I see him sinful, I proclaim myself a sinner, not a |
| W2:351.1 | I make and can relinquish. I can also see my brother sinless as Your | holy Son. And with this choice I see my sinlessness, my everlasting |
| W2:357.1 | and thus escape the prison house in which I think I live. Your | holy Son is pointed out to me, first in my brother, then in me. Your |
| W2:359.1 | have misunderstood all things. But we have not made sinners of the | holy Sons of God. What You created sinless so abides forever and |
| W2:FL.5 | We will not end this year without the gift our Father promised to His | holy Son. We are forgiven now. And we are saved from all the wrath we |
| W2:361.1 | hear and answer me because He speaks for God, my Father, and His | holy Son. |

| M:2.5 | of that purpose, and God has promised to send His Spirit into any | holy relationship. In the teaching-learning situation, each one |

| M:3.4 | meet again, for it is the destiny of all relationships to become | holy. God is not mistaken in His Son. |
| M:4.1 | as a means of leading out of time. These special gifts, born in the | holy relationship toward which the teaching-learning situation is |
| M:4.14 | make him confused, fearful, angry, and suspicious. It will make the | Holy Spirit's lessons impossible to learn. Nor can God's Teacher be |

| M:6.4 | Holy Spirit in the patient's mind is seeking for him. And it is the | Holy Spirit in the mind of the giver Who gives the gift to Him. How |
| M:6.4 | about what becomes of his gifts? Given by God to God, who in this | holy exchange can receive less than everything? |
| M:7.2 | repeat his previous effort. That was already maximal, because the | Holy Spirit so accepted it and so used it. Now the teacher of God has |
| M:11.3 | The text explains that the | Holy Spirit is the Answer to all problems you have made. These |

| M:12.5 | to those who have it not, and the body becomes holy. Because it is | holy it cannot be sick, nor can it die. When its usefulness is done, |
| M:12.5 | would be to give the body another purpose from the one that keeps it | holy. God's Voice will tell him when he has fulfilled his role, just |
| M:13.7 | in hell. The Word of God has no exceptions. It is this that makes it | holy and beyond the world. It is its holiness that points to God. It |

| M:20.5 | sentence is our practicing given its one direction. And in this the | Holy Spirit's whole curriculum is specified exactly as it is. |
| M:21.3 | because it symbolizes that which has no human symbols at all. The | Holy Spirit alone understands what this Word stands for. And this, |
| M:22.3 | has become lord of the mind. How could the mind be returned to the | Holy Spirit unless the body is killed? And who would want salvation |
| M:25.2 | on communication are the chief barrier to direct experience of the | Holy Spirit, Whose Presence is always there and Whose Voice is |
| M:25.2 | that surround all the separate places of the world would fall at the | holy sound of His Voice. Who transcends these limits in any way is |
| M:25.3 | that may be gathered on the way can be very helpful. Given to the | Holy Spirit and used under His direction, they are valuable teaching |
| M:25.4 | Nothing that is genuine is used to deceive. The | Holy Spirit is incapable of deception, and He can use only genuine |
| M:25.4 | which can be curiously tempting. Here are strengths which the | Holy Spirit wants and needs. Yet the ego sees in these same strengths |
| M:25.4 | turned to weakness are tragedy indeed. Yet what is not given to the | Holy Spirit must be given to weakness, for what is withheld from love |
| M:25.6 | has need of all abilities, for what the world would destroy, the | Holy Spirit would restore. “Psychic” abilities have been used to call |
| M:25.6 | the ego. Yet here is also a great channel of hope and healing in the | Holy Spirit's service. Those who have developed “psychic” powers have |
| M:25.6 | they utilize their increased freedom for greater imprisonment. The | Holy Spirit needs these gifts, and those who offer them to Him and |
| M:25.6 | and Him alone go with Christ's gratitude upon their hearts, and His | holy sight not far behind. |

| M:28.5 | His sinlessness, His love behind all forms, beyond all purposes. | Holy are we because His holiness has set us free indeed, and we |
| M:28.6 | is. And in His Final Judgment is restored the truth about the | holy Son of God. He is redeemed, for he has heard God's Word and |

| M:29.3 | advantage—and a very important one—in referring decisions to the | Holy Spirit with increasing frequency. Perhaps you have not thought |
| M:29.3 | thought of this aspect, but its centrality is obvious. To follow the | Holy Spirit's guidance is to let yourself be absolved of guilt. It is |
| M:29.3 | memory of love return to you. Do not, then, think that following the | Holy Spirit's guidance is necessary merely because of your own |

| Tx:5.18 | being and would not have understood the call to right thinking. The | Holy Spirit was God's Answer to the separation, the means by which |
| Tx:5.19 | the other is given you by God Who asks you only to listen to it. The | Holy Spirit is in you in a very literal sense. His is the Voice that |
| Tx:5.20 | Sons are as equal as learners as they are as Souls. The Voice of the | Holy Spirit is the call to Atonement or the restoration of the |
| Tx:5.20 | will be no call to return, but what God creates is eternal. The | Holy Spirit will remain with the Sons of God to bless their creations |
| Tx:5.21 | in darkness enter your minds, and so you need a new light. The | Holy Spirit is the radiance that you must let banish the idea of |
| Tx:5.22 | broken because you had made another voice through another will. The | Holy Spirit calls you both to remember and to forget. You have chosen |
| Tx:5.23 | but its application is different. Choosing means divided will. The | Holy Spirit is one way of choosing. This way is in you because there |
| Tx:5.23 | they put in their minds was not the voice of His Will for which the | Holy Spirit speaks. The call to return is stronger than the call to |
| Tx:5.24 | The Voice of the | Holy Spirit does not command, because it is incapable of arrogance. |

| Tx:5.26 | The | Holy Spirit is the way in which God's Will can be done on earth as it |
| Tx:5.28 | world with me. Rest does not come from sleeping but from waking. The | Holy Spirit is the call to awake and be glad. The world is very |
| Tx:5.28 | waking it to the Call for God. Everyone will answer the Call of the | Holy Spirit, or the Sonship cannot be as one. What better vocation |
| Tx:5.29 | Hear only this through the | Holy Spirit within you, and teach your brothers to listen as I am |
| Tx:5.30 | is another way or another Voice. Having given this invitation to the | Holy Spirit, I could come to provide the model for how to think. |
| Tx:5.30 | but we must respond to the same mind to do this. This mind is the | Holy Spirit, whose will is for God always. He teaches you how to keep |
| Tx:5.31 | God, my message is for you to hear and give away as you answer the | Holy Spirit within you. |
| Tx:5.32 | The way to learn to know your brother is by perceiving the | Holy Spirit in him. We have already said that the Holy Spirit is the |
| Tx:5.32 | by perceiving the Holy Spirit in him. We have already said that the | Holy Spirit is the bridge or thought-transfer of perception to |
| Tx:5.33 | The | Holy Spirit is the idea of healing. Being thought, the idea gains as |
| Tx:5.33 | idea of yourself as well as of all the parts of God. The idea of the | Holy Spirit shares the property of other ideas, because it follows |
| Tx:5.33 | be conscious to exist, your brother does not have to be aware of the | Holy Spirit either in himself or in you for this miracle to occur. |
| Tx:5.34 | also be in his, because you are perceiving him. See him through the | Holy Spirit in his mind, and you will recognize Him in yours. What |
| Tx:5.35 | The Voice of the | Holy Spirit is weak in you. That is why you must share it. It must be |
| Tx:5.35 | by being shared. If you make the mistake of looking for the | Holy Spirit in yourself alone, your meditations will frighten you |
| Tx:5.36 | and delay are meaningless in eternity. We have said before that the | Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the Holy |
| Tx:5.36 | the Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the | Holy Spirit reminds you is in direct opposition to the ego's notions, |
| Tx:5.36 | because true and false perceptions are themselves opposed. The | Holy Spirit has the task of undoing what the ego has made. He undoes |
| Tx:5.38 | The | Holy Spirit is the Mediator between the interpretations of the ego |
| Tx:5.38 | Understanding is light, and light leads to knowledge. The | Holy Spirit is in light because He is in you who are light, but you |
| Tx:5.38 | but you yourselves do not know this. It is therefore the task of the | Holy Spirit to reinterpret you on behalf of God. |
| Tx:5.39 | is your life, your eternity, and yourself. It is of this that the | Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this that the Holy Spirit sees. This |
| Tx:5.39 | It is of this that the Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this that the | Holy Spirit sees. This vision invariably frightens the ego because it |
| Tx:5.40 | The | Holy Spirit is as vigilant as the ego to the call of danger, opposing |
| Tx:5.40 | His strength, just as the ego welcomes it with all its might. The | Holy Spirit counters this welcome by welcoming peace. Peace and |
| Tx:5.41 | The ego is the symbol of separation, just as the | Holy Spirit is the symbol of peace. What you perceive in others, you |
| Tx:5.41 | strengthening in yourself. You let your mind misperceive, but the | Holy Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The |
| Tx:5.41 | Holy Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The | Holy Spirit is the perfect teacher. He uses only what your minds |
| Tx:5.41 | already understand to teach you that you do not understand it. The | Holy Spirit can deal with an unwilling learner without going counter |
| Tx:5.41 | than the ego, even though the ego does not recognize it. The | Holy Spirit recognizes it perfectly, because it is His own dwelling |
| Tx:5.42 | only in eternity. The ego made the world as it perceives it, but the | Holy Spirit, the reinterpreter of what the ego made, sees it only as |
| Tx:5.42 | made, sees it only as a teaching device for bringing you home. The | Holy Spirit must perceive time and reinterpret it into the timeless. |
| Tx:5.43 | The | Holy Spirit must work through opposites, because He must work with |
| Tx:5.43 | have not made truth, but truth can still set you free. Look as the | Holy Spirit looks, and understand as He understands. His |
| Tx:5.45 | They are beyond destruction and beyond guilt. They came from the | Holy Spirit within you, and we know what God creates is eternal. What |
| Tx:5.46 | can safely fail to acknowledge anything that is true. However, the | Holy Spirit will not fail to help you reinterpret everything that you |
| Tx:5.47 | of the Kingdom. Nothing good is lost because it comes from the | Holy Spirit, the Voice for creation. Nothing that is not good was |
| Tx:5.53 | attraction of the parts of the Sonship, which hear the call of the | Holy Spirit to be as One. |
| Tx:5.54 | and the mind which was in me rejoices as you choose to hear it. The | Holy Spirit atones in all of us by undoing and thus lifts the burden |
| Tx:5.56 | at the same level. It is impossible to share opposing thoughts. The | Holy Spirit does not let you forsake your brothers. Therefore, you |
| Tx:5.57 | of God lacks nothing. Everything you think that is not through the | Holy Spirit is lacking. |
| Tx:5.59 | ego's use of guilt is clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the | Holy Spirit has. The ego's purpose is fear because only the fearful |
| Tx:5.59 | can be egotistic. The ego's logic is as impeccable as that of the | Holy Spirit, because your mind has all the means at its disposal to |
| Tx:5.59 | appropriate here because, once what you have made is undone by the | Holy Spirit, the blessed residue is restored and therefore continues |
| Tx:5.67 | The | Holy Spirit, like the ego, is a decision. Together they constitute |
| Tx:5.67 | the alternatives which the mind can accept and obey. The ego and the | Holy Spirit are the only choices open to you. God created one, and so |
| Tx:5.73 | was in me is in you, for God creates with perfect fairness. Let the | Holy Spirit remind you always of His fairness, and let me teach you |
| Tx:5.74 | The ego speaks in judgment and the | Holy Spirit reverses its decisions, much as the Supreme Court has the |
| Tx:5.75 | wicked shall perish.” There are many others, but if you will let the | Holy Spirit reinterpret these in His own light, they will suffice. |
| Tx:5.76 | the fact that vengeance cannot be shared. Give it therefore to the | Holy Spirit, who will undo it in you because it does not belong in |
| Tx:5.77 | beyond itself. Actually, all the quotation means is that the | Holy Spirit in later generations retains the power to interpret |
| Tx:5.82 | device which will be abolished when it is no longer useful. The | Holy Spirit, Who speaks for God in time, also knows that time is |
| Tx:5.83 | set) on Him,” a statement which means that God's peace is set in the | Holy Spirit because it is fixed on God. It is also fixed in you. You, |
| Tx:5.85 | of the Holy Spirit's set is the basis for His unequivocal Voice. The | Holy Spirit never changes His Mind. Clarity of thought cannot occur |
| Tx:5.87 | Second, although Freud misinterpreted what the | Holy Spirit told him, or better, reminded him of, he was too honest |
| Tx:5.95 | the following as sincerely as you can, remembering that the | Holy Spirit will respond fully to your slightest invitation: |
| Tx:5.96 | because I want to be at peace. I do not feel guilty, because the | Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences of my wrong decision if I |
| Tx:6.13 | as learners, even though we need not have equal experiences. The | Holy Spirit is glad when you can learn enough from mine to be |
| Tx:6.14 | on to sacrifice. On the contrary, by enabling yourselves to hear the | Holy Spirit in others, you can learn from their experiences and gain |
| Tx:6.14 | from them without experiencing them yourselves. That is because the | Holy Spirit is one, and anyone who listens is inevitably led to |
| Tx:6.14 | nor was I. You are not asked to repeat my experiences, because the | Holy Spirit, Whom we share, makes this unnecessary. To use my |
| Tx:6.15 | that no perception which is out of accord with the judgment of the | Holy Spirit can be justified. I undertook to show this was true in a |
| Tx:6.16 | Remember that the | Holy Spirit is the communication link between God the Father and His |
| Tx:6.28 | its abilities are directed by the mind which has a better Voice. The | Holy Spirit as well as the ego utilizes projection, but since their |
| Tx:6.29 | The | Holy Spirit begins by perceiving you as perfect. Knowing this |
| Tx:6.29 | for both because it establishes inclusion. Perceiving equality, the | Holy Spirit perceives equal needs. This invites Atonement |
| Tx:6.31 | knowing. The ego's perception has no counterpart in God, but the | Holy Spirit remains the bridge between perception and knowledge. By |
| Tx:6.31 | that this meeting is impossible, yet it is your perception which the | Holy Spirit guides. You might remember that the human eye perceives |
| Tx:6.32 | other, because they were created neither partially nor in part. The | Holy Spirit enables you to perceive this wholeness now. You can no |
| Tx:6.32 | alone. Prayer is the restatement of inclusion, directed by the | Holy Spirit under the laws of God. God created you to create. You |
| Tx:6.33 | Although perception of any kind is unnecessary, you made it, and the | Holy Spirit can therefore use it well. He can inspire perception and |
| Tx:6.34 | The | Holy Spirit uses time but does not believe in it. Coming from God, He |
| Tx:6.34 | for good, but He does not believe in what is not true. Since the | Holy Spirit is in your minds, your minds must also be able to believe |
| Tx:6.34 | your minds must also be able to believe only what is true. The | Holy Spirit can speak only for this because he speaks for God. He |
| Tx:6.35 | because it can so easily make the idea seem so difficult. Yet the | Holy Spirit tells you that even return is unnecessary because what |
| Tx:6.36 | all of your perceptions into the one parallel line which the | Holy Spirit sees. This line is the direct line of communication with |
| Tx:6.36 | perception, because it means that all perception is guided by the | Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the Holy Spirit can |
| Tx:6.36 | is guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the | Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:6.36 | on God. Only the Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the | Holy Spirit is conflict-free. He perceives only what is true in your |
| Tx:6.37 | difference between the ego's use of projection and projection as the | Holy Spirit uses it is very simple. The ego projects to exclude and |
| Tx:6.37 | simple. The ego projects to exclude and therefore to deceive. The | Holy Spirit projects by recognizing Himself in every mind and thus |
| Tx:6.37 | them as one. Nothing conflicts in this perception, because what the | Holy Spirit perceives is the same. Wherever He looks He sees Himself, |
| Tx:6.38 | mind forever, but it must shine outward to make you aware of it. The | Holy Spirit was given you with perfect impartiality, and only by |
| Tx:6.38 | impartially can you perceive Him at all. The ego is legion, but the | Holy Spirit is One. No darkness abides anywhere in the Kingdom, but |
| Tx:6.40 | The | Holy Spirit still holds knowledge safe through His impartial |
| Tx:6.41 | you are to be conflict-free yourselves, you must learn only from the | Holy Spirit and teach only by Him. You are only love, but when you |
| Tx:6.42 | The only real safety lies in projecting only the | Holy Spirit because, as you see His gentleness in others, your own |
| Tx:6.45 | Remember that the | Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the question. The ego always speaks |
| Tx:6.45 | it at any moment. If it meant you well, it would be glad, as the | Holy Spirit will be glad when He has brought you home and you no |
| Tx:6.47 | you fully understand one basic fact that the ego does not know. The | Holy Spirit does not speak first, but He always answers. Everyone has |
| Tx:6.47 | another and in one way or another and has been answered. Since the | Holy Spirit answers truly, He answers for all time, which means that |
| Tx:6.48 | The ego cannot hear the | Holy Spirit, but it does believe that part of the same mind that made |
| Tx:6.50 | Hear then the one answer of the | Holy Spirit to all the questions which the ego raises. You are a |
| Tx:6.55 | That is why the | Holy Spirit never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which |
| Tx:6.55 | Spirit never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which the | Holy Spirit demonstrates does not exist. Fidelity to premises is a |
| Tx:6.57 | Like any good teacher, the | Holy Spirit does know more than you do now, but He teaches only to |
| Tx:6.60 | The | Holy Spirit never itemizes errors because He does not frighten |
| Tx:6.60 | they are frightened, because they do not know the difference. The | Holy Spirit makes no distinction among dreams. He merely shines them |
| Tx:6.60 | you have been dreaming. Nothing lasting lies in dreams, and the | Holy Spirit, shining with the light from God Himself, speaks only for |
| Tx:6.62 | It is clearly a separation device and therefore does not exist. The | Holy Spirit, as always, takes what you have made and translates it |
| Tx:6.63 | We have said that the | Holy Spirit is the motivation for miracles. This is because He always |
| Tx:6.63 | By the laws of mind, then, the body is meaningless. To the | Holy Spirit, there is no order of difficulty in miracles. This is |
| Tx:6.65 | The | Holy Spirit, who leads to God, translates communication into being, |
| Tx:6.65 | The insanity of this perception makes it a fearful one indeed. The | Holy Spirit sees the body only as a means of communication and |
| Tx:6.66 | allegiance but always for what each one can get separately. The | Holy Spirit communicates only what each one can give to all. He never |
| Tx:6.76 | you that it is up to you to decide which voice is true, but the | Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created by God, and your |
| Tx:6.76 | before that there was help in reminding yourselves to allow the | Holy Spirit to decide for God for you. |
| Tx:6.77 | believe that it is up to you to decide what God's creations are. The | Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is. Therefore, His |
| Tx:6.81 | accepted that is a demonstration of your growing awareness that the | Holy Spirit will lead you on. |
| Tx:6.82 | salvation is critical to the whole Sonship. We said before that the | Holy Spirit is evaluative and must be. Yet His evaluation does not |
| Tx:6.83 | What you must remember, however, is that what the | Holy Spirit rejects, the ego accepts. This is because they are in |
| Tx:6.83 | crucial issue vary, and that is why it promotes different moods. The | Holy Spirit never varies on this point, and so the one mood He |
| Tx:6.84 | The | Holy Spirit does not teach your mind to be critical of other minds, |
| Tx:6.88 | that you can choose either one. By teaching what to choose, the | Holy Spirit will ultimately be able to teach you that you need not |
| Tx:6.88 | direct it towards creation within the Kingdom. Choosing through the | Holy Spirit will lead you to the Kingdom. You create by what you are, |
| Tx:6.89 | step will still be taken for you by God, but by the third step the | Holy Spirit has prepared you for God. He is getting you ready for the |
| Tx:6.95 | second step, but I also told you that the third one follows it. The | Holy Spirit will enable you to go on if you follow Him. Your |
| Tx:7.6 | Him is to share the perfect love He shares with you. To this the | Holy Spirit leads you that your joy may be complete, because the |
| Tx:7.6 | and nothing that is true needs to be explained. However, the | Holy Spirit has the task of translating the useless into the useful, |
| Tx:7.10 | is to correct perception in your brother and yourself by sharing the | Holy Spirit with him. This places you both within the Kingdom and |
| Tx:7.15 | is to change the form so that the original meaning is retained. The | Holy Spirit is the translator of the laws of God to those who do not |
| Tx:7.17 | it cannot be consistent unless it is remembered. That is why the | Holy Spirit is a lesson in remembering. We said before that He |
| Tx:7.22 | defeat its purpose. Therefore, it does not really learn at all. The | Holy Spirit teaches you to use what the ego has made to teach the |
| Tx:7.22 | example of the Holy Spirit's unified purpose than this course. The | Holy Spirit has taken very diversified areas of your learning and has |
| Tx:7.23 | You made the effort to learn, and the | Holy Spirit has a unified goal for all effort. He adapts the ego's |
| Tx:7.24 | to be no connection, because the ego is discontinuous. Yet the | Holy Spirit teaches one lesson and applies it to all individuals in |
| Tx:7.30 | to question reality is to question meaninglessly. That is why the | Holy Spirit never questions. His sole function is to undo the |
| Tx:7.34 | The | Holy Spirit must work through you to teach you He is in you. This is |
| Tx:7.34 | you are in God, because you are part of Him. The miracles which the | Holy Spirit inspires can have no order of difficulty, because every |
| Tx:7.34 | is God's Will and yours. The laws of God establish this, and the | Holy Spirit reminds you of it. When you heal, you are remembering the |
| Tx:7.35 | All abilities, then, should be given over to the | Holy Spirit, Who knows how to use them properly. He can use them only |
| Tx:7.35 | wholeness you learn to remember God. You have forgotten Him, but the | Holy Spirit still knows that your forgetting must be translated into |
| Tx:7.36 | or to any extent. The ego always seeks to divide and separate. The | Holy Spirit always seeks to unify and heal. As you heal you are |
| Tx:7.36 | seeks to unify and heal. As you heal you are healed, because the | Holy Spirit sees no order of healing. Healing is the way to undo the |
| Tx:7.38 | not recognizing its existence in your brothers. This strengthens the | Holy Spirit in both of you, because it is a refusal to acknowledge |
| Tx:7.44 | The | Holy Spirit does not work by chance, and healing that is of Him |
| Tx:7.48 | he could not have changed his mind. That is how you perceive the | Holy Spirit in him. It is only the Holy Spirit in him that never |
| Tx:7.48 | That is how you perceive the Holy Spirit in him. It is only the | Holy Spirit in him that never changes His Mind. He himself must think |
| Tx:7.54 | reciprocal. They make or create, depending on whether the ego or the | Holy Spirit begets or inspires them, but they will return to the mind |
| Tx:7.60 | The | Holy Spirit undoes illusions without attacking them merely because He |
| Tx:7.60 | by perceiving conflict as meaningless. We said before that the | Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is, and it is |
| Tx:7.60 | perceives the conflict exactly as it is, and it is meaningless. The | Holy Spirit does not want you to understand conflict; He wants you to |
| Tx:7.61 | If you will keep in mind what the | Holy Spirit offers you, you cannot be vigilant for anything but God |
| Tx:7.61 | which are not true and would never have been called upon by the | Holy Spirit if you had not believed the untrue. You cannot deny that, |
| Tx:7.64 | committed to untruth, perceiving in total contradiction to the | Holy Spirit and to the knowledge of God. |
| Tx:7.65 | You can be perceived with meaning only by the | Holy Spirit, because your being is the knowledge of God. Any belief |
| Tx:7.68 | In this depressing state, the | Holy Spirit reminds you gently that you are sad because you are not |
| Tx:7.71 | because it will be used for attack, but in the service of the | Holy Spirit, [the law becomes as beneficent as all of the laws of |
| Tx:7.82 | as a way of getting rid of something it does not want. To the | Holy Spirit, it is the fundamental law of sharing by which you give |
| Tx:7.83 | Projection, to the | Holy Spirit, is the law of extension. To the ego, it is the law of |
| Tx:7.88 | the errors as yours, do not keep them. Give them over quickly to the | Holy Spirit to be undone completely so that all their effects will |
| Tx:7.89 | The | Holy Spirit will teach you to perceive beyond belief, because truth |
| Tx:7.91 | is of the Soul, because that is how God created it. The | Holy Spirit is the part of the mind that lies between the ego and the |
| Tx:7.95 | unknown to them. Your creations are protected for you, because the | Holy Spirit, Who is in your mind, knows of them and can bring them |
| Tx:7.100 | His Will as yours, and you are denying His Kingdom and yours. The | Holy Spirit will direct you only so as to avoid pain. The undoing of |
| Tx:7.100 | this goal if he recognized it. The problem is not whether what the | Holy Spirit says is true, but whether you want to listen to what He |
| Tx:7.101 | This confusion is the cause of the whole idea of sacrifice. Obey the | Holy Spirit, and you will be giving up the ego. But you will be |
| Tx:7.103 | The | Holy Spirit always sides with you and with your strength. As long as |
| Tx:7.103 | then, can this decision mean except that you want to be fearful? The | Holy Spirit never asks for sacrifice, but the ego always does. When |
| Tx:7.104 | of this decision is confusion, this is hardly surprising.] The | Holy Spirit is perfectly trustworthy, as you are. God Himself trusts |
| Tx:7.107 | The | Holy Spirit will always guide you truly, because your joy is His. |
| Tx:7.110 | has become the perfect teacher, because he has learned it of the | Holy Spirit, Who wants to teach him everything He knows. When a mind |
| Tx:8.8 | confused and totally confusing. Even if you could disregard the | Holy Spirit entirely, which is quite impossible, you could learn |
| Tx:8.11 | freedom and makes you afraid of your will because it is free. The | Holy Spirit opposes any imprisoning of the will of a Son of God, |
| Tx:8.11 | a Son of God, knowing that the will of the Son is the Father's. The | Holy Spirit leads you steadily along the path of freedom, teaching |
| Tx:8.12 | We said before that the | Holy Spirit teaches you the difference between pain and joy. That is |
| Tx:8.15 | To what else except all power and glory can the | Holy Spirit appeal to restore God's Kingdom? His appeal, then, is |
| Tx:8.17 | be forced upon you, being an experience of total willingness. The | Holy Spirit knows how to teach this, but you do not. That is why you |
| Tx:8.18 | of extending His Fatherhood by placing no limits upon it. Let the | Holy Spirit teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means |
| Tx:8.20 | find them in yourself, because it does not know where to look. The | Holy Spirit teaches you that if you look only at yourself, you cannot |
| Tx:8.23 | from them. The ego teaches that your strength is in you alone. The | Holy Spirit teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you. |
| Tx:8.41 | The ego's way is not mine, but it is also not yours. The | Holy Spirit has one direction for all minds, and the one He taught me |
| Tx:8.54 | Remember that the | Holy Spirit interprets the body only as a means of communication. |
| Tx:8.54 | Being the communication link between God and His separated Sons, the | Holy Spirit interprets everything you have made in the light of what |
| Tx:8.54 | in the light of what He is. The ego separates through the body. The | Holy Spirit reaches through it to others. You do not perceive your |
| Tx:8.54 | through it to others. You do not perceive your brothers as the | Holy Spirit does, because you do not interpret their bodies and yours |
| Tx:8.55 | is. This is God's way of making unlimited what you have limited. The | Holy Spirit does not see the body as you do, because He knows the |
| Tx:8.56 | put yours. If the body becomes for you a means which you give to the | Holy Spirit to use on behalf of union of the Sonship, you will not |
| Tx:8.56 | already done so by misusing it. Interpret anything apart from the | Holy Spirit, and you will mistrust it. This will lead you to hatred |
| Tx:8.61 | to be ruled by chaos. Guided by the ego, it is. Guided by the | Holy Spirit, it is not. It becomes only a means by which the part of |
| Tx:8.61 | return to the Soul. The ego's temple thus becomes the temple of the | Holy Spirit, where devotion to Him replaces devotion to the ego. In |
| Tx:8.74 | call upon witnesses who would disagree with its case, nor does the | Holy Spirit. We have said that judgment is the function of the Holy |
| Tx:8.74 | the Holy Spirit. We have said that judgment is the function of the | Holy Spirit and one which He is perfectly equipped to fulfill. The |
| Tx:8.76 | endless prescriptions for avoiding catastrophic outcomes. The | Holy Spirit, perfectly aware of the same data, does not bother to |
| Tx:8.78 | listen. It cannot be louder without violating your will, which the | Holy Spirit seeks to free but never to command. |
| Tx:8.79 | The | Holy Spirit teaches you to use your body only to reach your brothers, |
| Tx:8.79 | heal you. Everything used in accordance with its function as the | Holy Spirit sees it cannot be sick. Everything used otherwise is. Do |
| Tx:8.79 | is the natural state of anything whose interpretation is left to the | Holy Spirit, Who perceives no attack on anything. Health is the |
| Tx:8.80 | We once said that the | Holy Spirit is the Answer. He is the Answer to everything, because He |
| Tx:8.80 | its questions. When the ego tempts you to sickness, do not ask the | Holy Spirit to heal the body, for this would merely be to accept the |
| Tx:8.80 | that the body is the proper aim for healing. Ask rather that the | Holy Spirit teach you the right perception of the body, for |
| Tx:8.82 | what joining means if you are sleeping under its guidance. Yet the | Holy Spirit, too, has use for sleep and can use dreams on behalf of |
| Tx:8.83 | did you place it? Whenever you wake dispiritedly, it was not of the | Holy Spirit. Only when you awaken joyously have you utilized sleep |
| Tx:8.84 | to love, since all healing involves replacing fear with love. The | Holy Spirit cannot distinguish among degrees of error, for if He |
| Tx:8.94 | process can only be what you think you lose. Yet it is only what the | Holy Spirit sees that you can possibly have. We have emphasized many |
| Tx:8.94 | that you can possibly have. We have emphasized many times that the | Holy Spirit will never call upon you to sacrifice anything. But if |
| Tx:8.94 | anything. But if you ask the sacrifice of reality of yourselves, the | Holy Spirit must remind you that this is not God's Will because it is |
| Tx:8.95 | this is precisely what you will ask for. You may insist that the | Holy Spirit does not answer you, but it might be wiser to consider |
| Tx:8.98 | but it is still true that they do not want them. Can you ask the | Holy Spirit for “gifts” such as these and actually expect to receive |
| Tx:8.98 | for “gifts” such as these and actually expect to receive them? [The | Holy Spirit is totally incapable of giving you anything that does not |
| Tx:8.100 | When you ask the | Holy Spirit for what would hurt you, He cannot answer, because |
| Tx:8.100 | not a request. It is merely a denial in the form of a request. The | Holy Spirit is not concerned with form at all, being aware only of |
| Tx:8.100 | form at all, being aware only of meaning. The ego cannot ask the | Holy Spirit for anything because there is complete communication |
| Tx:8.100 | failure between them. Yet you can ask for everything of the | Holy Spirit because your requests are real, being of your will. Would |
| Tx:8.100 | Spirit because your requests are real, being of your will. Would the | Holy Spirit deny the Will of God? And could He fail to recognize it |
| Tx:8.108 | Let us suppose, then, that what you request of the | Holy Spirit is what you really want, but you are still afraid of it. |
| Tx:8.109 | be true if no effort is wasted. The very fact that one has asked the | Holy Spirit for anything will ensure a response. Yet it is equally |
| Tx:8.109 | a response. Yet it is equally certain that no response given by the | Holy Spirit will ever be one which would increase fear. It is |
| Tx:8.110 | in me whose faith in you cannot be shaken. Can you ask of the | Holy Spirit truly and doubt your brother? Believe his words are true |
| Tx:8.111 | about him determines the message you receive. Remember that the | Holy Spirit is in him, and His Voice speaks to you through him. What |
| Tx:8.112 | Salvation is of your brother. The | Holy Spirit extends from your mind to his and answers you. You cannot |
| Tx:8.112 | in you unless you extend it. You will not trust the guidance of the | Holy Spirit or believe that it is for you unless you hear it in |
| Tx:8.113 | me. Knowing what you are, I cannot doubt you. I hear only the | Holy Spirit in you, who speaks to me through you. If you would hear |
| Tx:8.118 | You can ask of the | Holy Spirit, then, only by giving to Him, and you can give to Him |
| Tx:9.1 | to the errors which other egos make is not the kind of vigilance the | Holy Spirit would have you maintain. Egos are critical in terms of |
| Tx:9.1 | understand this kind of sense because it is sensible to them. To the | Holy Spirit, it makes no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and |
| Tx:9.3 | of your brother's ego, you must be seeing through yours, because the | Holy Spirit does not perceive his errors. This must be true if there |
| Tx:9.3 | be true if there is no communication at all between the ego and the | Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not |
| Tx:9.3 | between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the | Holy Spirit does not attempt to understand anything that arises from |
| Tx:9.4 | When you react at all to errors, you are not listening to the | Holy Spirit. He has merely disregarded them, and if you attend to |
| Tx:9.5 | them, you are accepting yours. If you want to give yours over to the | Holy Spirit, you must do this with his. Unless this becomes the one |
| Tx:9.7 | and keep it, see only truth beside you, for you walk together. The | Holy Spirit in you forgives all things in you and in your brother. |
| Tx:9.7 | the ego. Correction is of God, Who does not know of arrogance. The | Holy Spirit forgives everything, because God created everything. |
| Tx:9.11 | which is given you because you have forgotten how to do it. The | Holy Spirit merely reminds you of what is your natural ability. By |
| Tx:9.11 | in its judgment. All their helpfulness lies in the judgment of the | Holy Spirit. |
| Tx:9.14 | Forgiveness through the | Holy Spirit lies simply in looking beyond error from the beginning |
| Tx:9.14 | order to be forgiven. What has no effect does not exist, and to the | Holy Spirit, the effects of error are totally non-existent. By |
| Tx:9.23 | as unhelpful as the older ones, because form does not matter to the | Holy Spirit and therefore does not matter at all. According to the |
| Tx:9.23 | is equated with the mind, the mind's corrective power through the | Holy Spirit is denied. |
| Tx:9.28 | not of him. Yet, being for him, it must also be for his patient. The | Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He makes healing perfectly clear |
| Tx:9.29 | As you awaken other minds to the | Holy Spirit through Him and not yourself, you will understand that |
| Tx:9.31 | How can you become increasingly aware of the | Holy Spirit in you except by His effects? You cannot see Him with |
| Tx:9.32 | It seems to you that the | Holy Spirit does not produce joy consistently in you only because you |
| Tx:9.35 | are not yet awake, but you can learn how to awaken. Very simply the | Holy Spirit teaches you to awaken others. As you see them waken, you |
| Tx:9.40 | It is perfectly obvious that if the | Holy Spirit looks with love on all He perceives, He looks with love |
| Tx:9.41 | ego is deceived by everything you do, even when you respond to the | Holy Spirit, because at such times its confusion increases. The ego |
| Tx:9.44 | from beyond it, because, within it, its foundation does stand. The | Holy Spirit judges against the reality of the ego's thought system |
| Tx:9.44 | not true. Therefore, nothing that arises from it means anything. The | Holy Spirit judges every belief you hold in terms of where it comes |
| Tx:9.56 | What good can come of it? And if no good can come of it, the | Holy Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot transform to the Will of |
| Tx:9.58 | it or prevail over it. It does not vary. It merely is. Ask the | Holy Spirit what it is and He will tell you, but do not be afraid of |
| Tx:9.66 | with neither? You do not remember being awake. When you hear the | Holy Spirit, you merely feel better because loving seems possible to |
| Tx:9.69 | this decision lie joy and peace and the glory of creation. Offer the | Holy Spirit only your will to remember, for He retains the knowledge |
| Tx:9.91 | is the recognition that his brother can do it. It is a call to the | Holy Spirit in his mind, a call to Him which is strengthened by this |
| Tx:10.12 | is merely because it is yours. You do not know what it is, but the | Holy Spirit remembers it for you. Ask Him, therefore, what God's Will |
| Tx:10.12 | be too often repeated that you do not know it. Whenever what the | Holy Spirit tells you appears to be coercive, it is only because you |
| Tx:10.15 | You are asked to trust the | Holy Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is the Voice for God, |
| Tx:10.19 | whole. And this willingness opens his own ears to the Voice of the | Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He will enable you to go far |
| Tx:10.20 | The | Holy Spirit cannot speak to an unwelcoming host because He will not |
| Tx:10.22 | is not real freedom, for it still depends on how you see it. The | Holy Spirit is there, although He cannot help you without your |
| Tx:10.53 | The ego analyzes; the | Holy Spirit accepts. The appreciation of wholeness comes only through |
| Tx:10.73 | because it is His Will to be known. The real world is all that the | Holy Spirit has saved for you out of what you have made, and to |
| Tx:10.75 | what you perceive, for its meaning is lost to you. Yet the | Holy Spirit has saved its meaning for you, and if you will let Him |
| Tx:10.80 | than to be told very clearly that if you ask you will receive. The | Holy Spirit will answer every specific problem as long as you believe |
| Tx:10.81 | that asking is taking, and you do not perceive it as sharing. The | Holy Spirit will give you only what is yours and will take nothing in |
| Tx:10.81 | and you share it with God. This is its reality. Would the | Holy Spirit, Who wills only to restore, be capable of misinterpreting |
| Tx:10.82 | the question. You have believed that to ask for guidance of the | Holy Spirit is to ask for deprivation. Little Children of God, you do |
| Tx:10.87 | and are condemning God's Son, whom God condemneth not. Let the | Holy Spirit remove all offense of God's Son against himself and |
| Tx:10.90 | only in yourself. Yet you can learn the truth of yourself of the | Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as part of God, deceit in you |
| Tx:11.6 | him your help, and you will not perceive God's answer to you. The | Holy Spirit does not need your help in interpreting motivation, but |
| Tx:11.9 | the recognition is necessary to demonstrate the need for escape. The | Holy Spirit must still translate it into truth. If you were left with |
| Tx:11.13 | it, for the awareness of truth cannot be denied. Thus does the | Holy Spirit replace fear with love and translate error into truth. |
| Tx:11.22 | it, for to lay aside means to judge against. If you will look, the | Holy Spirit will judge and will judge truly. He cannot shine away |
| Tx:11.23 | and carefully planned program aimed at learning how to offer to the | Holy Spirit everything you do not want. He knows what to do with it. |
| Tx:11.35 | your investment in the world as you have projected it, allowing the | Holy Spirit to project the real world to you from the altar of God. |
| Tx:11.39 | to find is hardly joyous. Is this the promise you would keep? The | Holy Spirit offers you another promise, and one that will lead to |
| Tx:11.40 | within yourself, for you do not believe your home is there. Yet the | Holy Spirit knows it for you, and He will guide you to your home |
| Tx:11.42 | awaits only the recognition that you have been redeemed. The | Holy Spirit guides you into life eternal, but you must relinquish |
| Tx:11.53 | to teach you how to gain the whole world and lose your own Soul. The | Holy Spirit teaches that you cannot lose your Soul and there is no |
| Tx:11.54 | The | Holy Spirit is your strength because He perceives nothing but your |
| Tx:11.55 | the world real unto yourself, for the real world is the gift of the | Holy Spirit, and so it belongs to you. |
| Tx:11.57 | The | Holy Spirit keeps the vision of Christ for every Son of God who |
| Tx:11.57 | in himself. For reality is one with the Father and the Son, and the | Holy Spirit blesses the real world in Their Name. |
| Tx:11.58 | to you in the quiet light of the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the | Holy Spirit will lead everyone home to his Father, where Christ waits |
| Tx:11.59 | which He knows because He knows His Father's love for Him. When the | Holy Spirit has at last led you to Christ at the altar to His Father, |
| Tx:11.61 | will radiate from your acceptance of it for yourself to everyone the | Holy Spirit sends you for your blessing. In every Child of God His |
| Tx:11.63 | The | Holy Spirit is invisible, but you can see the results of His |
| Tx:11.63 | and mass, of prediction and control is transcended, for what the | Holy Spirit enables you to do is clearly beyond all of them. |
| Tx:11.64 | You cannot see the | Holy Spirit, but you can see His manifestations. And unless you do, |
| Tx:11.64 | is healing. God shares His function with you in Heaven, and the | Holy Spirit shares His with you on earth. |
| Tx:11.66 | I am the manifestation of the | Holy Spirit, and when you see me, it will be because you have invited |
| Tx:11.73 | for judgment is not your function. If it is the judgment of the | Holy Spirit, it will be right, for judgment is His function. You |
| Tx:11.79 | true became invisible. Yet it cannot be invisible in itself, for the | Holy Spirit sees it with perfect clarity. It is invisible to you |
| Tx:11.79 | is up to you to decide what reality is. What can be seen is what the | Holy Spirit sees. The definition of reality is God's, not yours. He |
| Tx:11.82 | Everything you made has never been and is invisible because the | Holy Spirit does not see it. Yet what He does see is yours to behold, |
| Tx:11.82 | and truth. God's Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The | Holy Spirit looks upon him and sees nothing else in you. What is |
| Tx:11.89 | Long ago we said that the | Holy Spirit shares the goal of all good teachers, whose ultimate aim |
| Tx:11.89 | themselves unnecessary by teaching their pupils all they know. The | Holy Spirit wills only this, for sharing the Father's love for His |
| Tx:11.92 | he sees will never touch him, for although he believes in it, the | Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The Holy Spirit stands at the end |
| Tx:11.92 | he believes in it, the Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The | Holy Spirit stands at the end of time, where you must be because He |
| Tx:11.99 | guilt real, and if it is real, there is no way to overcome it. The | Holy Spirit dispels it simply through the calm recognition that it |
| Tx:12.10 | full extent. You may also think that it would be easy enough for the | Holy Spirit to show it to you and dispel it, without the need for you |
| Tx:12.13 | it, and the whole world you think you control would vanish. The | Holy Spirit, then, seems to be attacking your fortress, for you would |
| Tx:12.19 | your love, or you will be hiding a dark place in your mind where the | Holy Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt yourself from His |
| Tx:12.29 | which makes the encounter holy, is excluded from your sight. The | Holy Spirit teaches that you always meet yourself and the encounter |
| Tx:12.30 | The | Holy Spirit interprets time's purpose as rendering the need for it |
| Tx:12.31 | time as one of extending itself in place of eternity, for like the | Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of time as its own. The |
| Tx:12.31 | can occur. Its continuity, then, would keep you in time, while the | Holy Spirit would release you from it. It is His interpretation of |
| Tx:12.44 | The | Holy Spirit is the light in which Christ stands revealed. And all who |
| Tx:12.44 | they looked upon themselves with love, seeing themselves as the | Holy Spirit sees them. And with this vision of the truth in them came |
| Tx:12.67 | happy dreams of love. In these lie your true perceptions, for the | Holy Spirit corrects the world of dreams, where all perception is. |
| Tx:12.68 | are lacking. Yet can you find yourself in such a world? Without the | Holy Spirit, the answer would be no. Yet because of Him, the answer |
| Tx:12.70 | Only the | Holy Spirit knows what you need. For He will give you all things that |
| Tx:12.73 | The | Holy Spirit leads me unto Christ, and where else would I go? What |
| Tx:12.75 | restore to you the peace of mind that we must find together. The | Holy Spirit will teach you to awaken unto us and to yourself. This is |
| Tx:13.1 | All therapy is release from the past. That is why the | Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He teaches that the past does not |
| Tx:13.2 | at its loftiest is never complete. Even the perception of the | Holy Spirit, as perfect as perception can be, is without meaning in |
| Tx:13.4 | Apart from the Father and the Son, the | Holy Spirit has no function. He is not separate from either, being in |
| Tx:13.7 | and everywhere, for miracles offered the Son of God through the | Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy Spirit knows your part in |
| Tx:13.7 | the Son of God through the Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The | Holy Spirit knows your part in the redemption and who are seeking you |
| Tx:13.14 | of everything you cherish, for it is the means by which the | Holy Spirit can separate the false and the true, which you have |
| Tx:13.16 | of God lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you would have the | Holy Spirit make you free of it, accept His offer of Atonement for |
| Tx:13.21 | are holy and cannot be used by you at all. They are used only by the | Holy Spirit, and it is that which makes them pure. [If you displace |
| Tx:13.21 | which makes them pure. [If you displace your guilt upon them, the | Holy Spirit cannot use them.] For by preempting for your own ends |
| Tx:13.25 | learn that guilt is always totally insane and has no reason. The | Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. If guilt were real, |
| Tx:13.26 | The | Holy Spirit does not keep illusions in your mind to frighten you and |
| Tx:13.26 | is gone. Give no reality to guilt, and see no reason for it. The | Holy Spirit does what God would have Him do and has always done so. |
| Tx:13.29 | not in the Mind of God where you are. And this is reason, which the | Holy Spirit would restore to you. He would remove only illusions. All |
| Tx:13.38 | of sharing while you still remember the results of not sharing. The | Holy Spirit points quietly to the contrast, knowing that you will |
| Tx:13.39 | minds are darkened by doubt and guilt, remember this: God gave the | Holy Spirit to you and gave Him the mission to remove all doubt and |
| Tx:13.39 | He is invariable as the peace in which you dwell and of which the | Holy Spirit reminds you. |
| Tx:13.40 | you realize that this is what you want, and only this. Fear not the | Holy Spirit will fail in what your Father has given Him to do. The |
| Tx:13.41 | They will not prevail against the peace God wills for you. The | Holy Spirit will restore your sanity, because insanity is not the |
| Tx:13.42 | flows to you from Him Whose Will is peace. You have it now. The | Holy Spirit will teach you how to use it and, by projecting it, to |
| Tx:13.43 | God willed you Heaven and will always will you nothing else. The | Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. There is no chance that Heaven |
| Tx:13.43 | to save. It will not be possible to exempt yourself from what the | Holy Spirit wills to teach you. Salvation is as sure as God. His |
| Tx:13.45 | The | Holy Spirit cannot fail to undo for you everything you have learned |
| Tx:13.45 | substitute for your reconciliation unto sanity and unto peace. The | Holy Spirit has a very different kind of reconciliation in His Mind |
| Tx:13.46 | Him you cannot wander, and there is no possibility that the plan the | Holy Spirit offers to everyone for the salvation of everyone will not |
| Tx:13.47 | you have the means for learning it and seeing it quite clearly. The | Holy Spirit uses logic as easily and as well as does the ego, except |
| Tx:13.47 | us now turn away from them and follow the simple logic by which the | Holy Spirit teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for truth |
| Tx:13.50 | touched, and your dream is sacred to you. That is why God placed the | Holy Spirit in you, where you placed the dream. |
| Tx:13.52 | Any direction which will lead you where the | Holy Spirit leads you not goes nowhere. Anything you deny which He |
| Tx:13.53 | The | Holy Spirit, therefore, must begin His teaching by showing you what |
| Tx:13.54 | The | Holy Spirit needs a happy learner in whom His mission can be happily |
| Tx:13.54 | must first recognize that you are miserable and not happy. The | Holy Spirit cannot teach without this contrast, for you believe that |
| Tx:13.56 | The | Holy Spirit, seeing where you are but knowing you are elsewhere, |
| Tx:13.57 | they are kings with golden crowns because of them. All this the | Holy Spirit sees and teaches simply that all this is not true. To |
| Tx:13.57 | and delude themselves into believing that it is not nothing, the | Holy Spirit says, with steadfast quietness: |
| Tx:13.59 | Like you, the | Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He |
| Tx:13.61 | learner, you must give everything that you have learned over to the | Holy Spirit to be unlearned for you. And then begin to learn the |
| Tx:13.68 | the crucifixion and the resurrection, between the ego and the | Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy Spirit the |
| Tx:13.68 | the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the | Holy Spirit the decision for guiltlessness. The power of decision is |
| Tx:13.70 | darkness has no power over the Son of God is the happy lesson the | Holy Spirit teaches and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy |
| Tx:13.72 | himself the penalty of guilt in place of all the happy teaching the | Holy Spirit would gladly offer him. |
| Tx:13.74 | of value. Yet because they do not understand their will, the | Holy Spirit quietly understands it for them and gives them what they |
| Tx:13.76 | Make no decisions about what it is or where it lies, but ask of the | Holy Spirit everything and leave all decisions to His gentle counsel. |
| Tx:13.77 | would define what salvation is and what you would be saved from. The | Holy Spirit knows that all salvation is escape from guilt. You have |
| Tx:13.77 | against this strange distortion of the purity of the Son of God, the | Holy Spirit is your only friend. He is the strong protector of your |
| Tx:13.80 | Say to the | Holy Spirit only, “Decide for me,” and it is done. For His decisions |
| Tx:13.80 | cannot know when all knowledge lies behind every decision which the | Holy Spirit makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and teach |
| Tx:13.92 | in summer. Only your own volition seems to make deciding hard. The | Holy Spirit will not delay at all in answering your every question |
| Tx:14.3 | God. It does not teach you what you are or what your Father is. The | Holy Spirit, Who remembers this for you, merely teaches you how to |
| Tx:14.4 | unlike the way he sees himself. God can communicate only to the | Holy Spirit in your mind because only He shares the knowledge of what |
| Tx:14.4 | only He shares the knowledge of what you are with God. And only the | Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He knows what God is. |
| Tx:14.5 | nothing of value here and everything of value there. Listen to the | Holy Spirit and to God through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is |
| Tx:14.14 | aim. It sees as guilty, and by its condemnation, it would kill. The | Holy Spirit sees only guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would |
| Tx:14.17 | The quiet light in which the | Holy Spirit dwells within you is merely perfect openness in which |
| Tx:14.20 | you have made for breaking your communication with your Father. The | Holy Spirit reinterprets it as a means of reestablishing what has not |
| Tx:14.21 | maker. You who made it are but expressing conflict, from which the | Holy Spirit would release you. Leave what you would communicate to |
| Tx:14.28 | not defend itself. Defense is of your making. God knows it not. The | Holy Spirit uses defenses on behalf of truth only because you made |
| Tx:14.29 | you made, must be gently turned to your own good, translated by the | Holy Spirit from means of self-destruction to means of preservation |
| Tx:14.30 | The | Holy Spirit asks of you but this—bring to Him every secret you have |
| Tx:14.31 | one purpose which He shares with you. The single vision which the | Holy Spirit offers you will bring this oneness to your mind with |
| Tx:14.32 | let all that would hide your glory be brought to the judgment of the | Holy Spirit and there undone. Whom He would save for glory is saved |
| Tx:14.34 | do know God and also this. All this is safe within you, where the | Holy Spirit shines. He shines not in division, but in the meeting |
| Tx:14.34 | holy meeting place of the unseparated Father and His Son lies in the | Holy Spirit and in you. All interference in the communication that |
| Tx:14.43 | to see no one can fail to understand. It is the message that the | Holy Spirit is holding to the mirror that is in him. He recognizes it |
| Tx:14.50 | you have no basis at all for ordering your thoughts. This lesson the | Holy Spirit teaches by giving you shining examples to show you that |
| Tx:14.55 | you hold is for yourself. If you would remember your Father, let the | Holy Spirit order your thoughts and give only the answer with which |
| Tx:14.56 | As God communicates to the | Holy Spirit in you, so does the Holy Spirit translate His |
| Tx:14.56 | As God communicates to the Holy Spirit in you, so does the | Holy Spirit translate His communications through you so you can |
| Tx:14.56 | for all. Nothing lives in secret, and what you would hide from the | Holy Spirit is nothing. Every interpretation you would lay upon a |
| Tx:14.56 | interpretation you would lay upon a brother is senseless. Let the | Holy Spirit show him to you and teach you both his love and need for |
| Tx:14.63 | this in one form or another. And each bright lesson, with which the | Holy Spirit will replace the dark ones you do not accept and hide, |
| Tx:14.68 | with certain aspects of your lives alone that the guidance of the | Holy Spirit is limited. Thus would you make Him undependable and use |
| Tx:14.69 | Do you think that what the | Holy Spirit would have you give He would withhold from you? You have |
| Tx:14.73 | not upon the ego for anything. It is only this that you need do. The | Holy Spirit will, of Himself, fill every mind that so makes room for |
| Tx:15.2 | Spirit's teaching are far in the future. This is not so. For the | Holy Spirit uses time in His own way and is not bound by it. [Time is |
| Tx:15.2 | uses time to support its belief in destruction. The ego, like the | Holy Spirit, uses time to convince you of the inevitability of the |
| Tx:15.2 | teaching. To the ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to the | Holy Spirit the goal is life, which has no end. |
| Tx:15.8 | The | Holy Spirit teaches thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the ego |
| Tx:15.8 | from understanding the present, because you are afraid of it. The | Holy Spirit leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell. |
| Tx:15.8 | leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell. For the | Holy Spirit, Who knows only the present, uses it to undo the fear by |
| Tx:15.9 | The | Holy Spirit would undo all of this now. Fear is not of the present |
| Tx:15.12 | “How long is an instant?” Could you not give so short a time to the | Holy Spirit for your salvation? He asks no more, for He has no need |
| Tx:15.13 | You will never give this holy instant to the | Holy Spirit on behalf of your release while you are unwilling to give |
| Tx:15.13 | attest to your willingness to be released and to offer time to the | Holy Spirit for His use of it. How long is an instant? It is as short |
| Tx:15.13 | are enslaved by time and thus make time their friend for them. The | Holy Spirit gives their blessed instant to you through your giving |
| Tx:15.15 | Time is your friend if you leave it to the | Holy Spirit to use. He needs but very little to restore God's whole |
| Tx:15.15 | perfect release. Offer the miracle of the holy instant through the | Holy Spirit and leave His giving it to you to Him. |
| Tx:15.16 | For unless God is bound, you cannot be. An instant offered to the | Holy Spirit is offered to God on your behalf, and in that instant you |
| Tx:15.16 | the blessed instant, you will let go all your past learning, and the | Holy Spirit will quickly offer you the whole lesson of peace. What |
| Tx:15.19 | Yet they are far stronger and much more compelling witnesses for the | Holy Spirit. And they support His strength. It is, therefore, your |
| Tx:15.19 | It is, therefore, your choice whether they support the ego or the | Holy Spirit in you. And you will know which you have chosen by their |
| Tx:15.19 | by their reactions. A Son of God who has been released through the | Holy Spirit in a brother, if the release is complete, is always |
| Tx:15.19 | of this, you have not given one single instant completely to the | Holy Spirit. For when you have, you will be sure you have. You will |
| Tx:15.20 | until you hear one witness whom you have wholly released through the | Holy Spirit. And then you will doubt no more. The holy instant has |
| Tx:15.25 | There is no doubt about what your function is, for the | Holy Spirit knows what it is. There is no doubt about its magnitude, |
| Tx:15.26 | to the ego or host to God?” Let this question be asked you by the | Holy Spirit in you every time you make a decision. For every decision |
| Tx:15.27 | for hell and will bring you awareness of what you decided for. The | Holy Spirit can hold your magnitude, clean of all littleness, clearly |
| Tx:15.48 | perfect. In His function as Interpreter of what you have made, the | Holy Spirit uses special relationships, which you have chosen to |
| Tx:15.49 | The | Holy Spirit knows no one is special. Yet He also perceives that you |
| Tx:15.50 | which you would substitute for another has not been offered to the | Holy Spirit for His use. There is no substitute for love. If you |
| Tx:15.52 | special relationships, and although this is not so in Heaven, the | Holy Spirit knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the |
| Tx:15.53 | have built by which to judge your brothers. Once this is gone, the | Holy Spirit substitutes His frame of reference for it. His frame of |
| Tx:15.54 | you have been told to offer miracles as Christ directs and let the | Holy Spirit bring to you those who are seeking you. Yet in the holy |
| Tx:15.62 | the light behind it can have faith in love without fear. Yet the | Holy Spirit gives you this faith because He offered it to me and I |
| Tx:15.62 | instant will be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me the | Holy Spirit gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no need that |
| Tx:15.69 | chain that binds the Son of God to guilt, and it is this chain the | Holy Spirit would remove from his holy mind. For the chain of |
| Tx:15.69 | closely at the relationships which the ego contrives and let the | Holy Spirit judge them truly. For it is certain that, if you will |
| Tx:15.75 | will feel guilty about communication and will be afraid to hear the | Holy Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own need to communicate. |
| Tx:15.75 | Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own need to communicate. The | Holy Spirit cannot teach through fear. And how can He communicate |
| Tx:15.79 | The holy instant does not replace the need for learning, for the | Holy Spirit must not leave you as your Teacher until the holy instant |
| Tx:15.83 | The | Holy Spirit is God's attempt to free you of what He does not |
| Tx:15.83 | And because of the Source of the attempt, it will succeed. The | Holy Spirit asks you to respond as God does, for He would teach you |
| Tx:15.84 | The | Holy Spirit knows that it is not understandable, and yet He |
| Tx:15.85 | limit your perception of your brothers to the body, so would the | Holy Spirit release your vision and let you see the Great Rays |
| Tx:15.89 | If you would but let the | Holy Spirit tell you of the love of God for you and the need your |
| Tx:15.90 | vision of God's Son to what interferes with his release and what the | Holy Spirit must undo to set him free. For his belief in limits has |
| Tx:15.91 | and your thoughts will be as free as God's. As you let the | Holy Spirit teach you how to use the body only for purposes of |
| Tx:15.92 | my birth into the world. Yet you know not how to do it. Let the | Holy Spirit teach you, and let me celebrate your birth through Him. |
| Tx:15.103 | This Christmas, give the | Holy Spirit everything that would hurt you. Let yourself be healed |
| Tx:15.111 | I give you to the | Holy Spirit as part of myself. I know that you will be released, |
| Tx:16.1 | suffering is shared. The capacity to empathize is very useful to the | Holy Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His way. [His way is very |
| Tx:16.2 | this you may be sure—if you will merely sit quietly by and let the | Holy Spirit relate through you, you will empathize with strength and |
| Tx:16.7 | conflict because they contain an element of specialness. Only the | Holy Spirit recognizes foolish needs as well as real ones. And He |
| Tx:16.13 | Sonship as one has been made. When you have made this joining as the | Holy Spirit bids you and have offered it to Him to use as He knows |
| Tx:16.14 | Yet this is your position. You would have perfect faith in the | Holy Spirit and in the effects of His teaching if you were not afraid |
| Tx:16.19 | that makes for happiness. You have never given any problem to the | Holy Spirit He has not solved for you, nor will you ever do so. You |
| Tx:16.25 | Your teaching has already done this, for the | Holy Spirit is part of you. Created by God, He left neither God nor |
| Tx:16.25 | of the Self you do not know. And they communicate to you through the | Holy Spirit, and their power and gratitude to you for their creation |
| Tx:16.41 | more forget the truth in you than you can fail to remember it. The | Holy Spirit is the bridge to Him, made from your willingness to unite |
| Tx:16.47 | There can be no disagreement on this, because both the ego and the | Holy Spirit accept it. They are, however, in complete disagreement on |
| Tx:16.47 | disagreement on what completion is and how it is accomplished. The | Holy Spirit knows that completion lies first in union and then in the |
| Tx:16.60 | be unable to find you and comfort you. There is a way in which the | Holy Spirit asks your help if you would have His. The holy instant is |
| Tx:16.69 | The | Holy Spirit asks only this little help of you. Whenever your thoughts |
| Tx:16.75 | Against the ego's insane notion of salvation, the | Holy Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the |
| Tx:16.75 | Holy Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the | Holy Spirit must teach through comparisons and uses opposites to |
| Tx:16.76 | will not attempt this long. In the holy instant, the power of the | Holy Spirit will prevail because you joined Him. The illusions you |
| Tx:16.77 | His Son will always be exactly as he was created. And everything the | Holy Spirit teaches you is to remind you that you have received what |
| Tx:17.7 | you will see the Son of God. You will behold the beauty which the | Holy Spirit loves to look upon and which He thanks the Father for. He |
| Tx:17.13 | trembling with readiness to be given you. The eagerness of the | Holy Spirit to give you this is so intense He would not wait, |
| Tx:17.19 | of it and join with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” How can the | Holy Spirit bring His interpretation of the body as a means of |
| Tx:17.21 | The | Holy Spirit wills only to make His resolutions complete and perfect, |
| Tx:17.23 | This is the only part of the relationship the | Holy Spirit sees because He knows that only this is true. You have |
| Tx:17.28 | yet it is possible to make happy. We have said repeatedly that the | Holy Spirit would not deprive you of your special relationships but |
| Tx:17.29 | the special relationship was the ego's answer to the creation of the | Holy Spirit, Who was God's answer to the separation. For although the |
| Tx:17.30 | system which the ego evolved to protect the separation from the | Holy Spirit was in response to the gift with which God blessed it and |
| Tx:17.30 | within itself the truth about everything. And the truth is that the | Holy Spirit is in close relationship with you because in Him is your |
| Tx:17.30 | to you. The relationship with Him has never been broken because the | Holy Spirit has not been separate from anyone since the separation. |
| Tx:17.44 | it was. This is the first result of offering the relationship to the | Holy Spirit to use for His purposes. |
| Tx:17.45 | This invitation is accepted immediately, and the | Holy Spirit wastes no time in introducing the practical results of |
| Tx:17.48 | that the rewards of faith are being introduced. If you believed the | Holy Spirit was there to accept the relationship, why would you now |
| Tx:17.53 | You undertook together to invite the | Holy Spirit into your relationship. He could not have entered |
| Tx:17.61 | for the ego believes the situation brings the experience. The | Holy Spirit knows that the situation is as the goal determines it and |
| Tx:17.62 | Where the goal of truth is set, there faith must be. The | Holy Spirit sees the situation as a whole. The goal establishes the |
| Tx:17.72 | [Truth calls for faith, and faith makes room for truth.] When the | Holy Spirit changed the purpose of your relationship by exchanging |
| Tx:17.75 | This simple courtesy is all the | Holy Spirit asks of you. Let truth be what it is. Do not intrude upon |
| Tx:18.1 | perceive at once how much at variance this is with the goal the | Holy Spirit has given you and would accomplish for you. To substitute |
| Tx:18.2 | The | Holy Spirit never uses substitutes. Where the ego perceives one |
| Tx:18.2 | Where the ego perceives one person as a replacement for another, the | Holy Spirit sees them joined and indivisible. He does not judge |
| Tx:18.2 | separate. Nothing can come between what God has joined and what the | Holy Spirit sees as one. But everything seems to come between the |
| Tx:18.8 | dwells the living God you never left and Who never left you. The | Holy Spirit takes you gently by the hand and retraces with you your |
| Tx:18.9 | entered here, nor ever will. Here is the radiant truth to which the | Holy Spirit has committed your relationship. Let Him bring it here, |
| Tx:18.20 | The | Holy Spirit, ever practical in His wisdom, accepts your dreams and |
| Tx:18.20 | your dreams of fear are changed to happy dreams. That is what the | Holy Spirit does in your special relationship. He does not destroy it |
| Tx:18.21 | all who come within your sight. Through it, the blessing which the | Holy Spirit has laid upon it will be extended. Think not that He has |
| Tx:18.23 | special relationship meet its conditions. In your relationship, the | Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world—the world of happy |
| Tx:18.32 | that you realize that you cannot do more. Do not attempt to give the | Holy Spirit what He does not ask, or you will add the ego unto Him |
| Tx:18.45 | it is still a special relationship. Yet it is very useful to the | Holy Spirit, Who has a special function here. It will become the |
| Tx:18.46 | relationship is threatened by anything, stop instantly and offer the | Holy Spirit your willingness in spite of fear to let Him exchange |
| Tx:18.48 | it now. And so I choose this instant as the one to offer to the | Holy Spirit, that His blessing may descend on us and keep us both in |
| Tx:18.52 | function of the body, it cannot change its function from what the | Holy Spirit establishes it to be. The body was not made by love. Yet |
| Tx:18.69 | activity of the body ceases to demand attention. Into this place the | Holy Spirit comes and there abides. He will remain when you forget |
| Tx:18.84 | the little thought that seems split off and separate, which the | Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in God's keeping and needs no |
| Tx:18.85 | Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost sight of Heaven. Let the | Holy Spirit remove it from the withered kingdom in which you set it |
| Tx:18.87 | Yet God can bring you there if you are willing to follow the | Holy Spirit through seeming terror, trusting Him not to abandon you |
| Tx:19.2 | And he is healed because you offered faith to him, giving him to the | Holy Spirit and releasing him from every demand your ego would make |
| Tx:19.2 | make of him. Thus do you see him free, and in this vision does the | Holy Spirit share. And since He shares it, He has given it, and so He |
| Tx:19.15 | your little kingdoms barren and separate, so will faith help the | Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy garden which He |
| Tx:19.27 | perception, for it is sin that calls for punishment, not error. The | Holy Spirit cannot punish sin. Mistakes He recognizes and would |
| Tx:19.28 | help that you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In time the | Holy Spirit clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes. On this |
| Tx:19.38 | placed before it. This will you do, for nothing undertaken with the | Holy Spirit remains unfinished. You can indeed be sure of nothing you |
| Tx:19.38 | of nothing you see outside you, but of this you can be sure: the | Holy Spirit asks that you offer Him a resting-place where you will |
| Tx:19.39 | are looking where He is and not apart from Him. You cannot see the | Holy Spirit, but you can see your brothers truly. And the light in |
| Tx:19.39 | there for seeing then? When God has taken the last step Himself, the | Holy Spirit will gather all your thanks and gratitude which you have |
| Tx:19.43 | purpose apart from each other nor apart from the one you asked the | Holy Spirit to share with you. The little wall will fall away so |
| Tx:19.46 | settle briefly upon anything, for it has no purpose now. Before the | Holy Spirit entered to abide with you, it seemed to have a mighty |
| Tx:19.53 | The | Holy Spirit has given you love's messengers to send instead of those |
| Tx:19.54 | If you send forth only the messengers the | Holy Spirit gives you, wanting no messages but theirs, you will see |
| Tx:19.54 | cannot ask love's messengers to remove from it and see it still. The | Holy Spirit has given you His messengers to send to each other and |
| Tx:19.62 | suffer. Is it a sacrifice to be removed from what can suffer? The | Holy Spirit does not demand you sacrifice the hope of the body's |
| Tx:19.62 | can it bring you fear of pain. Pain is the only “sacrifice” the | Holy Spirit asks, and this He would remove. |
| Tx:19.68 | Your little part is but to give the | Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the peace He |
| Tx:19.73 | invested is given by the sender and the receiver. The ego and the | Holy Spirit both recognize this, and both also recognize that here |
| Tx:19.73 | also recognize that here the sender and receiver are the same. The | Holy Spirit tells you this with joy. The ego hides it, for it would |
| Tx:19.76 | and what is offered must also be received to be truly given. For the | Holy Spirit, too, is a communication medium, receiving from the |
| Tx:19.76 | the Father and offering His messages unto the Son. Like the ego, the | Holy Spirit is both the sender and the receiver. For what is sent |
| Tx:19.77 | To you in whose special relationship the | Holy Spirit entered, it is given to release and be released from the |
| Tx:19.86 | you. Your newborn purpose is nursed by angels, cherished by the | Holy Spirit, and protected by God Himself. It needs not your |
| Tx:19.94 | And so it is with this. The desire to get rid of peace and drive the | Holy Spirit from you fades in the presence of the quiet recognition |
| Tx:19.102 | each of you is one who offers you the chalice of Atonement, for the | Holy Spirit is in him. Would you hold his sins against him or accept |
| Tx:19.106 | not separate in death. Behold the gift of freedom that I gave the | Holy Spirit for both of you. And be you free together, as you offer |
| Tx:19.106 | for both of you. And be you free together, as you offer to the | Holy Spirit this same gift. And giving it, receive it of Him in |
| Tx:20.11 | of illusion that God Himself could give. For what God gave the | Holy Spirit, you have received. The Son of God looks unto you for his |
| Tx:20.22 | a purpose, but he will not remain before the shining light the | Holy Spirit offered and you accepted. For there the stranger is made |
| Tx:20.28 | power at all. Power is of God, given by Him and reawakened by the | Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you give, you gain. He gives no power |
| Tx:20.28 | and misery and pain. These things have not occurred because the | Holy Spirit sees them not and gives no power to their seeming source. |
| Tx:20.28 | keep you free of them. Being without illusion of what you are, the | Holy Spirit merely gives everything to God, Who has already given and |
| Tx:20.29 | And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a lesson in giving, as the | Holy Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of the laws of God |
| Tx:20.35 | one function that you would fulfill, there will be nothing else the | Holy Spirit will not arrange for you without your effort. |
| Tx:20.41 | is as little use to you as it is to him. When it is used only as the | Holy Spirit teaches, it has no function, for minds need not the body |
| Tx:20.44 | Be comforted and feel the | Holy Spirit watching over you in love and perfect confidence in what |
| Tx:20.49 | in its idolatry. Here it is “safe,” for here love cannot enter. The | Holy Spirit does not build His temples where love can never be. Would |
| Tx:20.51 | have escaped the body. Where you are the body cannot enter, for the | Holy Spirit has set His temple there. |
| Tx:20.54 | true relationship the Son of God has with his Father in reality. The | Holy Spirit rests within it in the certainty it will endure forever. |
| Tx:20.60 | To obtain the goal, the | Holy Spirit indeed asked little. He asks no more to give the means as |
| Tx:20.65 | body is the sign that you lack vision and have denied the means the | Holy Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How can a holy |
| Tx:20.69 | for it with real desire and sincerity of purpose, shared with the | Holy Spirit and at one with Him on what salvation is. Be willing, |
| Tx:20.70 | The | Holy Spirit guarantees that what God willed and gave you shall be |
| Tx:20.70 | of destruction be preferred and chosen to replace the holy home the | Holy Spirit offers, where He will dwell with you? |
| Tx:20.76 | at all or merely judged against. Vision is the means by which the | Holy Spirit translates your nightmares into happy dreams; your wild |
| Tx:21.13 | relationship transformed to joy; the little gift you offer to the | Holy Spirit for which He gives you everything; the very little on |
| Tx:21.17 | decide for God for you. This is the little gift you offer to the | Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by |
| Tx:21.22 | The | Holy Spirit can give you faith in holiness and vision to see it |
| Tx:21.29 | from the accepted purpose of the relationship. And that is why the | Holy Spirit must change its purpose to make it useful to Him and |
| Tx:21.32 | the means by which the goal of holiness is reached. Through them the | Holy Spirit leads you to the real world and away from all illusions |
| Tx:21.34 | The | Holy Spirit has a use for all the means for sin by which you sought |
| Tx:21.34 | you might choose among your brothers and seek for sin with them. The | Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to teach you that the vision |
| Tx:21.37 | Those who believe in sin must think the | Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how they think their |
| Tx:21.37 | this is how they think their purpose is accomplished. Brothers, the | Holy Spirit knows that sacrifice brings nothing. He makes no |
| Tx:21.39 | Think you the | Holy Spirit is concerned with this? He gives not what it is His |
| Tx:21.41 | The | Holy Spirit will never teach you that you are sinful. Errors He will |
| Tx:21.46 | There is no inconsistency in what the | Holy Spirit teaches. This is the reasoning of the sane. You have |
| Tx:21.53 | you now, being eternal. You must have set aside a place in which the | Holy Spirit can abide and where He is. He must have been there since |
| Tx:21.66 | in order to escape from reason. What madness would conceal, the | Holy Spirit still holds out for everyone to look upon with gladness. |
| Tx:21.82 | asks if you are willing to exchange the world of sin for what the | Holy Spirit sees, since it is this the world of sin denies. And |
| Tx:22.20 | Therefore, says reason, if escape from guilt was given to the | Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom nothing He wills can |
| Tx:22.26 | has given to your holy relationship is there. For what He gave the | Holy Spirit to give to you, He gave. Would you not look upon the |
| Tx:22.46 | Belief in sin needs great defense and at enormous cost. All that the | Holy Spirit offers must be defended against and sacrificed. For sin |
| Tx:22.52 | Yet even in this confusion, so profound it cannot be described, the | Holy Spirit waits in gentle patience, as certain of the outcome as He |
| Tx:22.56 | laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you give the | Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are now His means must |
| Tx:22.58 | and only this.] Accept this one and serve it willingly, for what the | Holy Spirit does with the gifts you give each other, to whom He |
| Tx:22.63 | conclude because you can attack you must be different. Yet does the | Holy Spirit explain this differently. Because you are not different, |
| Tx:23.16 | everything is given those who would remember Him. Over His home the | Holy Spirit watches, sure that its peace can never be disturbed. |
| Tx:23.50 | and the miracles you have the power to extend to all. Yet does the | Holy Spirit understand how to increase your little gifts and make |
| Tx:24.15 | you really are, how can you know the truth? What answer that the | Holy Spirit gives can reach you, when it is your specialness to which |
| Tx:24.52 | of God's Son is all the world is for. That is the only purpose the | Holy Spirit sees in it and thus the only one it has. Until you see |
| Tx:25.8 | may reach to you through what you understand. Father and Son and | Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in truth. |
| Tx:25.8 | understanding in the part of you that shares His Father's Will. The | Holy Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad desire to be separate, |
| Tx:25.9 | The | Holy Spirit serves Christ's purpose in your mind, so that the aim of |
| Tx:25.17 | The | Holy Spirit is the frame God set around the part of Him that you |
| Tx:25.21 | and giving it you learn to understand His gift to you. And give the | Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the Son alike. Nothing |
| Tx:25.30 | must have been wrong. And thus is change made possible. The | Holy Spirit too sees what He sees as far beyond the chance of change. |
| Tx:25.47 | is the only function meaningful in time. It is the means the | Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness from sin into salvation. |
| Tx:25.49 | The | Holy Spirit needs your special function that His may be fulfilled. |
| Tx:25.49 | salvation easily and well. The Son of God can make no choice the | Holy Spirit cannot employ on his behalf and not against himself. Only |
| Tx:25.50 | And if the | Holy Spirit can commute each sentence that you laid upon yourself |
| Tx:25.54 | The | Holy Spirit has the power to change the whole foundation of the world |
| Tx:25.61 | the rock on which salvation rests, the vantage point from which the | Holy Spirit gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your |
| Tx:25.63 | The | Holy Spirit can use all that you give to Him for your salvation. But |
| Tx:25.68 | that their own belief in justice must entail. And so they fear the | Holy Spirit and perceive the “wrath” of God in Him. [They are unjust |
| Tx:25.69 | they think the loss of sin a curse. And flee [the blessing of] the | Holy Spirit as if He were a messenger from hell sent from above in |
| Tx:25.74 | As specialness cares not who pays the cost of sin, so it be paid, the | Holy Spirit heeds not who looks on innocence at last, provided it is |
| Tx:25.74 | if he sees truly. Simple justice asks no more. Of each one does the | Holy Spirit ask if he will be that one, so justice may return to love |
| Tx:25.75 | unto his sinlessness and not his sin. How little need you give the | Holy Spirit that simple justice may be given you! |
| Tx:25.77 | for His holy Son. This is the only justice Heaven knows, and all the | Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special function shows you nothing |
| Tx:25.80 | Be certain any answer to a problem the | Holy Spirit solves will always be one in which no one loses. And this |
| Tx:25.80 | it greater, harder to resolve, and more unfair. It is impossible the | Holy Spirit could see unfairness as a resolution. To Him, what is |
| Tx:25.82 | but as God knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight the | Holy Spirit gives. |
| Tx:25.84 | gift of healing and deliverance and peace. To give a problem to the | Holy Spirit to solve for you means that you want it solved. To keep |
| Tx:26.6 | its reality. Nor can you lose what you would sacrifice nor keep the | Holy Spirit from His task of showing you that it has not been lost. |
| Tx:26.10 | It is not difficult to understand the reasons why you do not ask the | Holy Spirit to solve all problems for you. He has not greater |
| Tx:26.11 | The | Holy Spirit offers you release from every problem that you think you |
| Tx:26.13 | It does injustice to the Son of God and therefore is not true. The | Holy Spirit does not evaluate injustices as great or small or more or |
| Tx:26.15 | you call forth will rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the | Holy Spirit be content until it is received by everyone. For what you |
| Tx:26.33 | you who still believe you live in time and know not it is gone, the | Holy Spirit still guides you through the infinitely small and |
| Tx:26.73 | the working out can seem to take forever. The change of purpose the | Holy Spirit brought to your relationship has in it all effects that |
| Tx:26.74 | of pain. This is a sacrifice of now, which could not be the cost the | Holy Spirit asks for what He gave without a cost at all. |
| Tx:26.89 | on it by rendering it purposeless, without the function that the | Holy Spirit sees. And simple justice has been thus denied to every |
| Tx:26.90 | without a purpose in a futile world. The world is fair because the | Holy Spirit has brought injustice to the light within, and there has |
| Tx:27.3 | you offer him you show yourself and give it all your faith. The | Holy Spirit offers you to give to him a picture of yourself in which |
| Tx:27.5 | perceived and loved. Now in the hands made gentle by His touch, the | Holy Spirit lays a picture of a different you. It is a picture of a |
| Tx:27.12 | This thing without a purpose cannot hide the function that the | Holy Spirit gave. Let, then, its purpose and your function both be |
| Tx:27.20 | The “cost” of your serenity is his. This is the “price” the | Holy Spirit and the world interpret differently. The world perceives |
| Tx:27.20 | as a statement of the “fact” that your salvation sacrifices his. The | Holy Spirit knows your healing is the witness unto his and cannot be |
| Tx:27.21 | to prevent a shift of balance in the sacrifice. How could the | Holy Spirit be deterred an instant, even less, to reason with an |
| Tx:27.26 | his presence is perceived as all of you. To this remaining half the | Holy Spirit must represent the other half until you recognize it is |
| Tx:27.27 | which cannot be shared, and so it cannot be the function which the | Holy Spirit sees as His. And you can rest assured that He will not |
| Tx:27.33 | the means by which the truth is represented temporarily. It lets the | Holy Spirit make exchange of pictures possible until the time when |
| Tx:27.44 | what he does not have? And who can share what he denies himself? The | Holy Spirit speaks to you. He does not speak to someone else. Yet by |
| Tx:27.54 | It is a loud, obscuring voice whose shrieks would silence what the | Holy Spirit says and keep His words from your awareness. Pain compels |
| Tx:27.74 | Rest in the | Holy Spirit and allow His gentle dreams to take the place of those |
| Tx:27.85 | In gentle laughter does the | Holy Spirit perceive the cause and looks not to effects. How else |
| Tx:27.87 | The | Holy Spirit will repeat this one inclusive lesson of deliverance |
| Tx:28.3 | memory, which is not used to interfere with truth. All things the | Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been given Him, without the |
| Tx:28.4 | The | Holy Spirit can indeed make use of memory, for God Himself is there. |
| Tx:28.8 | This is the Cause the | Holy Spirit has remembered for you, when you would forget. It is not |
| Tx:28.25 | Like every lesson which the | Holy Spirit requests you learn, the miracle is clear. It demonstrates |
| Tx:28.43 | The | Holy Spirit is in both your minds, and He is One because there is no |
| Tx:28.43 | space between them vacant. And the Father comes to join His Son the | Holy Spirit joined. |
| Tx:29.29 | of him, and there is no betrayal but of this. The core of dreams the | Holy Spirit gives is never one of fear. The coverings may not appear |
| Tx:29.32 | can intrude upon the sacred Son of God within. Here is the role the | Holy Spirit gives to you who wait upon the Son of God and would |
| Tx:29.36 | Why does it seem so hard to share this dream? Because unless the | Holy Spirit gives the dream its function, it was made for hate and |
| Tx:29.60 | but laugh if idols could intrude upon his peace. It is for him the | Holy Spirit speaks and tells you idols have no purpose here. For more |
| Tx:30.33 | Do you not understand that to oppose the | Holy Spirit is to fight yourself? He tells you but your will; He |
| Tx:30.82 | it cannot be that meaning changes constantly and yet is true. The | Holy Spirit looks upon the world as with one purpose, changelessly |
| Tx:31.5 | for their learning is the only purpose for your learning skill the | Holy Spirit sees in all the world. His simple lessons in forgiveness |
| Tx:31.50 | beyond its roads nor realize the way you see yourself. Now must the | Holy Spirit find a way to help you see this concept of the self must |
| Tx:31.53 | self. And both would go if either one were ever raised to doubt. The | Holy Spirit does not seek to throw you into panic. So He merely asks |
| W1:43.1 | of God. His is the realm of knowledge. Yet He has created the | Holy Spirit as the Mediator between perception and knowledge. Without |
| W1:43.1 | purified that it will lead to knowledge. That is its function as the | Holy Spirit sees it. Therefore, that is its function in truth. |
| W1:43.2 | holiness to his awareness. Perception has no meaning. Yet does the | Holy Spirit give it a meaning very close to God's. Healed perception |
| W1:64.2 | was the purpose of the body itself. Yet we have learned that the | Holy Spirit has another use for all the illusions you have made, and |
| W1:64.2 | you have made, and therefore He sees another purpose in them. To the | Holy Spirit, the world is a place where you learn to forgive yourself |
| W1:64.6 | from just this one simple choice. That is the only choice the | Holy Spirit sees. Therefore it is the only choice there is. |
| W1:65.4 | long range disciplinary training which your mind needs, so that the | Holy Spirit can use it consistently for the purpose He shares with |
| W1:66.2 | The ego does constant battle with the | Holy Spirit on the fundamental question of what your function is. So |
| W1:66.2 | of what your function is. So does it do constant battle with the | Holy Spirit about what your happiness is. It is not a two-way battle. |
| W1:66.2 | happiness is. It is not a two-way battle. The ego attacks and the | Holy Spirit does not respond. He knows what your function is. He |
| W1:66.9 | by the ego and is made up of illusions. The other is the home of the | Holy Spirit, where truth abides. There are no other guides but these |
| W1:66.9 | but the fear which the ego always engenders and the love which the | Holy Spirit always offers to replace it. |
| W1:75.9 | that your forgiveness entitles you to vision. Understand that the | Holy Spirit never fails to give the gift of sight to the forgiving. |
| W1:77.6 | The | Holy Spirit cannot but assure you that your request is granted. The |
| W1:78.6 | enemy is more than friend when he is freed to take the holy role the | Holy Spirit has assigned to him. Let him be savior unto you today. |
| W1:78.10 | long for this. He would be free and make his freedom yours. The | Holy Spirit leans from him to you, seeing no separation in God's Son. |
| W1:78.11 | No dark grievances obscure the sight of him. You have allowed the | Holy Spirit to express through him the role God gave Him that you |
| W1:78.11 | you laid your images aside and looked upon the miracle of love the | Holy Spirit showed you in their place. The world and Heaven join in |
| W1:80.2 | You have recognized your only problem, opening the way for the | Holy Spirit to give you God's answer. You have laid deception aside |
| W1:90.5 | with the problem, so that they cannot be separated by time. The | Holy Spirit will teach me this if I will let Him. And I will |
| W1:91.9 | If you are not a body, what are you? You need to be aware of what the | Holy Spirit uses to replace the image of a body in your mind. You |
| W1:95.9 | The | Holy Spirit is not delayed in His teaching by your mistakes. He can |
| W1:96.8 | and they remain within your mind and in the Mind of God. The | Holy Spirit holds salvation in your mind and offers it the way to |
| W1:97.6 | The | Holy Spirit will be glad to take five minutes of each hour from your |
| W1:97.8 | Begin these happy exercises with the words the | Holy Spirit speaks to you, and let them echo round the world through |
| W1:97.10 | Expressed through you, the | Holy Spirit will accept this gift which you received of Him, increase |
| W1:97.12 | if you yield to the belief that you are something else. The | Holy Spirit gives you peace today. Receive His words, and offer them |
| W1:99.5 | The | Holy Spirit holds this plan of God exactly as it was received of Him |
| W1:99.5 | in time because of your belief that time is real. Unshaken does the | Holy Spirit look on what you see—on sin and pain and death, on |
| W1:R3.6 | but what is in your mind? Have faith in these reviews, the means the | Holy Spirit uses will not fail. The wisdom of your mind will come to |
| W1:137.9 | for a world where sadness cannot enter, are the means by which the | Holy Spirit urges you to follow Him. His gentle lessons teach how |
| W1:140.3 | The happy dreams the | Holy Spirit brings are different from the dreaming of the world, |
| W1:158.5 | and His are joined in knowledge. Yet there is a vision which the | Holy Spirit sees because the mind of Christ beholds it too. |
| W1:161.3 | now it is specifics we must use in practicing. We give them to the | Holy Spirit that He may employ them for a purpose which is different |

| Tx:10.32 | Could you try to make God homeless and know that you are at | home? Can the Son deny the Father without believing that the Father |
| Tx:11.40 | You will undertake a journey because you are not at | home in this world. And you will search for your home whether you |
| Tx:11.40 | you are not at home in this world. And you will search for your | home whether you know where it is or not. If you believe it is |
| Tx:11.40 | do not know how to look within yourself, for you do not believe your | home is there. Yet the Holy Spirit knows it for you, and He will |
| Tx:11.40 | Yet the Holy Spirit knows it for you, and He will guide you to your | home because that is His mission. As He fulfills His mission, He will |
| Tx:11.40 | yours, for your mission is the same as His. By guiding your brothers | home, you are but following Him. |
| Tx:11.58 | the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the Holy Spirit will lead everyone | home to his Father, where Christ waits as his Self. |
| Tx:11.60 | join in perfect love of God and of each other. Heaven is your | home, and being in God, it must also be in you. |
| Tx:12.54 | have made it manifest in them. And seeing it, its beauty calls you | home. |
| Tx:12.64 | you have found His company and learned of Him the joyful journey | home. You wait but for yourself. To give this sad world over and |
| Tx:12.70 | them on behalf of lingering in time. He knows that you are not at | home there, and He wills no delay to wait upon your joyous homecoming. |
| Tx:12.76 | not here, but in eternity. You travel but in dreams while safe at | home. Give thanks to every part of you that you have taught how to |
| Tx:15.23 | homecoming. For you will be content only in magnitude, which is your | home. |
| Tx:16.25 | they offer gladly to your teaching of yourself, who is their | home. You who are host to God are also host to them. For nothing real |
| Tx:17.12 | From the forgiven world, the Son of God is lifted easily into his | home. And there he knows that he has always rested there in peace. |
| Tx:17.40 | as fearful, but the fact that it is just a picture is brought | home at last. And what you see there, you will recognize as what it |
| Tx:18.31 | the power of God Himself, can you remain in darkness? You are coming | home together after a long and meaningless journey which you |
| Tx:18.56 | Yet only thus can you escape. The | home of vengeance is not yours; the place you set aside to house your |
| Tx:19.40 | from which it radiates outward to call the others in. You are its | home, its tranquil dwelling-place from which it gently reaches out |
| Tx:19.44 | For from you who answered, He Who answered you would call. His | home is in your holy relationship. Do not attempt to stand between |
| Tx:19.60 | and leave you homeless. And it is this for which you would deny a | home to peace. This “sacrifice” you feel to be too great to make, too |
| Tx:19.63 | And you want your Father, not a little mound of clay, to be your | home. In your holy relationship is your Father's Son. He has not lost |
| Tx:19.66 | and love looks on itself. Salvation flows from deep within the | home you offered to my Father and to me. And we are there together in |
| Tx:19.66 | not apart from what is offered you in gratitude for giving peace its | home in Heaven. Send forth to all the world the joyous message of the |
| Tx:19.68 | it. If peace is homeless, so are you and so am I. And He Who is our | home is homeless with us. Is this your will? Would you forever be a |
| Tx:19.69 | conditions of the mind to be attained. And these conditions are the | home of the emotion which called them forth and therefore is |
| Tx:20.6 | gift it offers depends on what it wants. It will adorn its chosen | home most carefully, making it ready to receive the gifts it wants by |
| Tx:20.6 | gifts it wants by offering them to those who come unto its chosen | home or those it would attract to it. And there they will exchange |
| Tx:20.7 | of the receiver and the giver. No one but sees in his chosen | home an altar to himself. No one but seeks to draw to it the |
| Tx:20.8 | of God as whole. But look you first upon the altar in your chosen | home and see what you have laid upon it to offer me. If it be thorns |
| Tx:20.8 | points gleam sharply in a blood-red light, the body is your chosen | home, and it is separation that you offer me. And yet the thorns are |
| Tx:20.11 | to crucify the Son of God and crown him king of death. Your chosen | home is on the other side, beyond the veil. It has been carefully |
| Tx:20.12 | Your | home has called to you since time began, nor have you ever failed |
| Tx:20.12 | be no illusions—only a pathway to the open door of Heaven, the | home we share in quietness, and where we live in gentleness and peace |
| Tx:20.13 | each other's way. The holiness that leads us is within us, as is our | home. So will we find what we were meant to find by Him Who leads us. |
| Tx:20.14 | for the savior from illusions has come to greet you and lead you | home with him. |
| Tx:20.15 | singing as you behold the open door of Heaven, and recognize the | home that called to you. Give joyously to one another the freedom and |
| Tx:20.15 | wait, to offer and receive the bright awareness that leads you | home. The lamp is lit in both of you for one another. And by the |
| Tx:20.22 | There is a stranger in him who wandered carelessly into the | home of truth, and who will wander off. He came without a purpose, |
| Tx:20.49 | can never be. Would He Who sees the face of Christ choose as His | home the only place in all the universe where it can not be seen? |
| Tx:20.50 | Spirit's temple, and it will never be the seat of love. It is the | home of the idolater and of love's condemnation. For here is love |
| Tx:20.51 | fear is but the herald of escape. This place of darkness is not your | home. Your temple is not threatened. You are idolaters no longer. The |
| Tx:20.52 | idea and give it the illusion of reality. And so it seemed to have a | home that held together for a little while in time and vanished. For |
| Tx:20.70 | can you value more than this? Why do you think the body is a better | home, a safer shelter for God's Son? Why would you rather look on it |
| Tx:20.70 | engine of destruction be preferred and chosen to replace the holy | home the Holy Spirit offers, where He will dwell with you? |
| Tx:21.47 | rule has kept it out so long. Heaven has come because it found a | home in your relationship on earth. And earth can hold no longer what |
| Tx:21.61 | the mind. For only bodies can be separate and therefore unreal. The | home of madness cannot be the home of reason. Yet it is easy to leave |
| Tx:21.61 | be separate and therefore unreal. The home of madness cannot be the | home of reason. Yet it is easy to leave the home of madness if you |
| Tx:21.61 | of madness cannot be the home of reason. Yet it is easy to leave the | home of madness if you see reason. You do not leave insanity by going |
| Tx:22.3 | to earth. For this relationship has Heaven's holiness. How far from | home can a relationship so like to Heaven be? |
| Tx:22.10 | him will become to him his comforters, and he will recognize his | home and see them there with him. |
| Tx:22.12 | Where Christ has entered, no one is alone, for never could He find a | home in separate ones. Yet must He be reborn into His ancient home, |
| Tx:22.12 | find a home in separate ones. Yet must He be reborn into His ancient | home, so seeming new and yet as old as He, a tiny newcomer, dependent |
| Tx:22.14 | illusions is to recognize that fear is meaningless. Into the holy | home, where fear is powerless, love enters thankfully, grateful that |
| Tx:22.15 | Him. You are indeed correct in looking on each other as His chosen | home, for here you will with Him and with His Father. This is your |
| Tx:22.15 | to God as surely as both are drawn to every holy relationship, the | home prepared for them as earth is turned to Heaven. |
| Tx:22.27 | disappears. For at its center Christ has been reborn to light His | home with vision that overlooks the world. Would you not have this |
| Tx:22.27 | with vision that overlooks the world. Would you not have this holy | home be yours as well? No misery is here, but only joy. |
| Tx:22.28 | a single sin still tempts you to remain in misery? Heaven is the | home of perfect purity, and God created it for you. Look on your holy |
| Tx:23.9 | meaning. For your beliefs converge upon the body, the ego's chosen | home, which you believe is yours. You meet at a mistake—an error in |
| Tx:23.15 | will the Father never be remembered. Yet no illusion can invade His | home and drive Him out of what He loves forever. And what He loves |
| Tx:23.15 | what He loves must be forever quiet and at peace because it is His | home. And you who are beloved of Him are no illusions, being as true |
| Tx:23.16 | The stillness of your certainty of Him and of yourself is | home to both of you, who dwell as one and not apart. Open the door of |
| Tx:23.16 | you, who dwell as one and not apart. Open the door of His most holy | home and let forgiveness sweep away all trace of the belief in sin |
| Tx:23.16 | are not strangers in the house of God. Welcome your brother to the | home where God has set him in serenity and peace and dwells with him. |
| Tx:23.16 | and everything is given those who would remember Him. Over His | home the Holy Spirit watches, sure that its peace can never be |
| Tx:24.31 | illusions of your specialness. Here is the hell you chose to be your | home. He chose not this for you. Ask not He enter this. The way is |
| Tx:24.45 | For what but Christ is there to see and hear and love and follow | home? He looked upon you first but recognized that you were not |
| Tx:24.67 | you go past learning to the Given; not till you make again a holy | home for your creations is it understood. |
| Tx:25.27 | them where it will. If it elects to see them elsewhere from their | home, as if they lit a place where they could never be, and you |
| Tx:25.35 | leave you homeless. Those who offer peace to everyone have found a | home in Heaven the world cannot destroy. For it is large enough to |
| Tx:25.36 | that Heaven be restored to him for whom it was created as his only | home? Nothing before and nothing after it. No other place, no other |
| Tx:25.48 | of lose. Salvation is no more than a reminder this world is not your | home; its laws are not imposed on you; its values are not yours. [And |
| Tx:26.28 | God Himself comes to receive each gift that brings him nearer to his | home. Not one is lost, and none is cherished more than any other. |
| Tx:26.77 | will you know He is in you as well, while you attack His chosen | home and battle with His host. Regard him gently. Look with loving |
| Tx:26.80 | into Heaven, where the lights grow ever brighter as each one comes | home. The incomplete is made complete again, and Heaven's joy has |
| Tx:26.82 | a present love. And They come quickly to the living temple, where a | home for Them has been set up. There is no place in Heaven holier. |
| Tx:26.83 | you. No one on earth but offers thanks to one who has restored his | home and sheltered him from bitter winter and the freezing cold. And |
| Tx:27.32 | a silent invitation to the truth to enter and to make itself at | home. No preparation can be made that would enhance the invitation's |
| Tx:28.62 | that seems to hold some promise of relief. Yet who can build his | home upon a straw and count on it as shelter from the wind? The body |
| Tx:28.62 | and count on it as shelter from the wind? The body can be made a | home like this because it lacks foundation in the truth. And yet, |
| Tx:28.62 | in the truth. And yet, because it does, it can be seen as not your | home but merely as an aid to help you reach the home where God abides. |
| Tx:28.62 | be seen as not your home but merely as an aid to help you reach the | home where God abides. |
| Tx:28.65 | What can be safe which rests upon a shadow? Would you build your | home upon what will collapse beneath a feather's weight? |
| Tx:28.66 | Your | home is built upon your brother's health, upon his happiness, his |
| Tx:28.66 | promise you have made instead has shaken the Foundation of his | home. The winds will blow upon it, and the rain will beat against it |
| Tx:28.66 | the extent to which it can be used to liberate God's Son unto his | home. And with this holy purpose is it made a home of holiness a |
| Tx:28.66 | God's Son unto his home. And with this holy purpose is it made a | home of holiness a little while because it shares your Father's Will |
| Tx:29.35 | you not want to be a friend to him, created by his Father as His | home? If God esteems him worthy of Himself, would you attack him with |
| Tx:30.47 | sureness of its changelessness and of its rest in its eternal | home, the Thought God holds of you has never left the mind of its |
| Tx:31.4 | God forgotten and His Son an alien to himself, in exile from the | home where God Himself established him. You who have taught |
| Tx:31.43 | is that suits a world of shadows and illusions. Here it walks at | home, where what it sees is one with it. The building of a concept of |
| Tx:31.97 | in You. For we have reached where all of us are One, and we are | home, where You would have us be. |
| W1:49.4 | world. You do not live there. We are trying to reach your real | home. We are trying to reach the place where you are truly welcome. |
| W1:53.5 | of my own insane thoughts when the perfection of creation is my | home? Let me remember the power of my decision and recognize where I |
| W1:60.2 | Heaven that the Love of God can reach down to me and raise me to my | home. |
| W1:66.9 | is ruled by the ego and is made up of illusions. The other is the | home of the Holy Spirit, where truth abides. There are no other |
| W1:93.1 | You think you are the | home of evil, darkness, and sin. You think if anyone could see the |
| W1:94.5 | an image to replace reality. This is the Self which never left its | home in God to walk the world uncertainly. This is the Self which |
| W1:102.3 | you reach the happiness God's Will has placed in you. Here is your | home, and here your safety is. Here is your peace, and here there is |
| W1:112.2 | [93] Light and joy and peace abide in me. I am the | home of light and joy and peace. I welcome them into the home I share |
| W1:112.2 | I am the home of light and joy and peace. I welcome them into the | home I share with God, because I am a part of Him. |
| W1:122.5 | beyond the doorway, bidding you to enter in and make yourself at | home where you belong. |
| W1:124.1 | Today we will again give thanks for our Identity in God. Our | home is safe, protection guaranteed in all we do, power and strength |
| W1:128.6 | mind from chains and let it seek the level where it finds itself at | home. It will be grateful to be free a while. It knows where it |
| W1:131.9 | Heaven? Could he lose what the Eternal Will has given him to be his | home forever? Let us not try longer to impose an alien will upon |
| W1:132.15 | upon it. They cannot be there—no more than we. For we are in the | home our Father set for us along with them. And we who are as He |
| W1:135.6 | to make it beautiful or walls to make it safe, and you but say your | home is open to the thief of time, corruptible and crumbling, so |
| W1:135.7 | picture fearful? Can you be at peace with such a concept of your | home? Yet what endowed the body with the right to serve you thus |
| W1:137.12 | not offer shelter to God's Will? You but invite your Self to be at | home, and can this invitation be refused? Ask the inevitable to |
| W1:139.6 | the world believes is true. It is a place whose purpose is to be a | home where those who claim they do not know themselves can come to |
| W1:140.5 | Yet there is no place where He is not. And therefore sin can have no | home in which to hide from His beneficence. There is no place where |
| W1:140.10 | where all illusions end, and peace returns to the eternal quiet | home of God. |
| W1:152.14 | never left will come again to our awareness, grateful to restore His | home to God as it was meant to be. |
| W1:159.7 | made new again but in a different light. What was to be the | home of sin becomes the center of redemption and the hearth of mercy |
| W1:159.7 | are healed and welcome. No one will be turned away from this new | home where his salvation waits. No one is stranger to him. No one |
| W1:159.8 | in which the lilies of forgiveness set their roots. This is their | home. They can be brought from here back to the world, but they can |
| W1:159.9 | that its treasures may increase. His lilies do not leave their | home when they are carried back into the world. Their roots remain. |
| W1:160.2 | yet, he does not recognize to whom he comes and yet maintains his | home belongs to him, while he is alien now who is at home. |
| W1:160.2 | maintains his home belongs to him, while he is alien now who is at | home. |
| W1:160.3 | And yet how easy it would be to say, “This is my | home. Here I belong and will not leave because a madman says I must.” |
| W1:160.3 | be dispossessed so needlessly unless he thought there was another | home more suited to his tastes. |
| W1:160.4 | Who is the stranger? Is it fear or you that is unsuited to the | home which God provided for His Son? Is fear His own, created in His |
| W1:160.4 | Is it fear that love completes and is completed by? There is no | home can shelter love and fear. They cannot coexist. If you are real, |
| W1:160.5 | denied himself and said, “I am the stranger here. And so I leave my | home to one more like me than myself and give him all I thought |
| W1:160.5 | of all things but this—that he is not himself and that his | home has been denied to him. |
| W1:160.6 | search for now? What can he find? A stranger to himself can find no | home wherever he may look, for he has made return impossible. His way |
| W1:160.6 | him that he is no stranger now. The miracle will come. For in his | home his Self remains. It asked no stranger in and took no alien |
| W1:160.8 | stranger made to you. Whom God has joined remains forever one, at | home in Him, no stranger to Himself. |
| W1:160.9 | as they give Him welcome, they remember. And He leads them gently | home again where they belong. |
| W1:160.10 | does He forget. Not one He fails to give you to remember that your | home may be complete and perfect as it was established. He has not |
| W1:160.10 | the gift of sight by which his Self is clearly recognized, his | home remembered, and salvation come. |
| W1:165.6 | cannot cut him off from God's sustaining love and from his | home. |
| W1:166.4 | Here is the only | home he thinks he knows. Here is the only safety he believes that he |
| W1:166.4 | is afraid indeed and homeless too—an outcast wandering so far from | home, so long away, he does not realize he has forgotten where he |
| W1:167.11 | His holy | home we strive to keep today, as He established it and wills it be |
| W1:169.3 | completely different from experience with which it is familiarly at | home. |
| W1:R5.10 | part in me. And as I am made whole, we go together to our ancient | home, prepared for us before time was and kept unchanged by time, |
| W1:175.3 | [160] I am at | home. Fear is the stranger here. God is but Love, and therefore so am |
| W1:182.1 | This world you seem to live in is not | home to you. And somewhere in your mind you know that this is true. A |
| W1:182.1 | And somewhere in your mind you know that this is true. A memory of | home keeps haunting you, as if there were a place that called you to |
| W1:182.3 | We speak today for everyone who walks this world, for he is not at | home. He goes uncertainly about in endless search, seeking in |
| W1:182.3 | his restless mind. He does not understand he builds in vain. The | home he seeks cannot be made by him. There is no substitute for |
| W1:182.4 | Perhaps you think it is your childhood | home that you would find again. The childhood of your body and its |
| W1:182.5 | His own Son. It is this Child Who knows His Father. He desires to go | home so deeply, so unceasingly, His voice cries unto you to let Him |
| W1:182.5 | again the holy air that fills His Father's house. You are His | home as well. He will return. But give Him just a little time to be |
| W1:182.5 | Him just a little time to be Himself within the peace that is His | home, resting in silence and in peace and love. |
| W1:182.6 | This Child needs your protection. He is far from | home. He is so little that He seems so easily shut out, His tiny |
| W1:182.6 | still abides His sure protection. You will fail Him not. He will go | home, and you along with Him. |
| W1:182.7 | you. He came because He knew you would not fail. He whispers of His | home unceasingly to you. For He would bring you back with Him, that |
| W1:182.7 | calling you to let Him go in peace along with you to where He is at | home and you with Him. |
| W1:182.8 | will not resist Him longer. In that instant, He will take you to His | home, and you will stay with Him in perfect stillness, silent and at |
| W1:182.8 | untouched by fear and doubt, sublimely certain that you are at | home. |
| W1:182.9 | He would be Friend to them. He asks but they protect Him, for His | home is far away, and He will not return to it alone. |
| W1:182.10 | is reborn as but a little Child each time a wanderer would leave his | home. For he must learn that what he would protect is but this Child, |
| W1:182.10 | Who comes defenseless and Who is protected by defenselessness. Go | home with Him from time to time today. You are as much an alien here |
| W1:182.11 | brother. He has even come to you to ask your help in letting Him go | home completed and completely. He has come as does a little child who |
| W1:182.12 | Call which cannot be denied. The holy Child remains with you. His | home is yours. Today He gives you His defenselessness, and you accept |
| W1:182.12 | the journey has an end in sight at last. Be still a moment and go | home with Him, and be at peace a while. |
| W1:186.6 | tarnish the truth in you, and misery can come not near the holy | home of God. |
| W1:187.11 | to us in form of lilies we can lay upon our altar, making it a | home for Innocence Itself, Who dwells in us and offers us His |
| W1:188.1 | you are alien here as well. The light came with you from your native | home and stayed with you because it is your own. It is the only thing |
| W1:188.1 | from Him Who is your Source. It shines in you because it lights your | home and leads you back to where it came from and you are at home. |
| W1:188.1 | your home and leads you back to where it came from and you are at | home. |
| W1:188.6 | God Himself. These thoughts you think with Him. They recognize their | home. And they point surely to their Source where God the Father and |
| W1:188.8 | them stray. We let the light within our minds direct them to come | home. We have betrayed them, ordering that they depart from us. But |
| W1:189.2 | every form of danger and of pain. It offers you a warm and gentle | home in which to stay a while. It blesses you throughout the day and |
| W1:189.9 | His way. Through every opened door His love shines outward from its | home within and lightens up the world in innocence. |
| W1:192.6 | forgiveness can relieve the mind of thinking that the body is its | home. Only forgiveness can restore the peace that God intended for |
| W1:193.13 | holy rest remain untroubled and serene, without a care in an eternal | home which cares for him. And He would have all tears be wiped away |
| W1:197.2 | become salvation to you. See yourself as bound, and bars become your | home. Nor will you leave the prison house or claim your strength |
| W1:198.9 | Today we practice letting freedom come to make its | home with you. The truth bestows these words upon your mind that you |
| W1:198.12 | your Father. Let today be celebrated both on earth and in your holy | home as well. Be kind to both, as you forgive the trespasses you |
| W1:199.3 | the body dear because it dwells in it and lives united with the | home that it has made. It is a part of the illusion that has |
| W1:199.6 | The Holy Spirit is the | home of minds that seek for freedom. In Him they find what they have |
| W1:200.4 | Come | home. You have not found your happiness in foreign places and in |
| W1:200.9 | will not desert His Son in need, nor let him stray forever from his | home. The Father calls; the Son will hear. And that is all there is |
| W1:200.11 | peace is union if it be of God. We seek no further. We are close to | home and draw still nearer every time we say: |
| W1:202.1 | [182] I will be still a moment and go | home. Why would I choose to stay an instant more where I do not |
| W1:202.1 | I do not belong, when God Himself has given me His Voice to call me | home? I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:205.1 | purpose and my function and my life while I abide where I am not at | home. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:220.1 | am lost on other roads than this. But let me follow Him Who leads me | home, and peace is certain as the Love of God. I am not a body. I am |
| W2:I.9 | will rise again. A moment more, and we who are God's Sons are safely | home, where He would have us be. |
| W2:222.1 | I am sustained, the water which renews and cleanses me. He is my | home, wherein I live and move, the Spirit Which directs my actions, |
| W2:223.1 | housed within a body. Now I know my life is God's. I have no other | home, and I do not exist apart from Him. He has no thoughts that are |
| W2:223.2 | You longer. We are lonely here and long for Heaven where we are at | home. Today we would return. Our Name is Yours, and we acknowledge |
| W2:226.2 | Father, my | home awaits my glad return. Your arms are open, and I hear Your |
| W2:227.2 | of God this day lays down his dreams. The Son of God this day comes | home again, released from sin and clad in holiness, with his right |
| W2:229.1 | I seek no more. Love has prevailed. So still it waited for my coming | home that I will turn away no longer from the holy face of Christ. |
| W2:241.2 | again. Father, Your Son, who never left, returns to Heaven and his | home. How glad are we to have our sanity restored to us, and to |
| W2:242.1 | lead to God. This day I give to Him, for I would not delay my coming | home, and it is He Who knows the way to Him. |
| W2:244.2 | we are in truth. No storms can come into the hallowed haven of our | home. In God are we secure. For what can come to threaten God Himself |
| W2:WIS.3 | Sin is the | home of all illusions, which but stand for things imagined, issuing |
| W2:WIS.5 | sharp-edged children's toys? How soon will you be ready to come | home? Perhaps today? There is no sin. Creation is unchanged. Would |
| W2:WIB.5 | with love, and you are safe. Identify with love, and you are | home. Identify with love, and find your Self. |

| Tx:29.12 | It has been hopeless to attempt to find the | hope of peace upon a battleground. It has been futile to demand |

| Tx:29.36 | which you have forgiven him for all his dreams of death—a dream of | hope you share with him instead of dreaming evil separate dreams of |

| Tx:29.44 | No one who comes here but must still have | hope, some lingering illusion, or some dream that there is something |

| Tx:30.92 | The cost of the belief there must be some appearances beyond the | hope of change is that the miracle cannot come forth from you |
| Tx:31.7 | the world you see. It is a world of terror and despair. Nor is there | hope of happiness in it. There is no plan for safety you can make |
| Tx:31.7 | ever will succeed. There is no joy that you can seek for here and | hope to find. Yet this is not the only outcome which your learning |
| Tx:31.8 | is a world in which there is no fear and everything is lit with | hope and sparkles with a gentle friendliness. Nothing but calls to |
| Tx:31.15 | would not want to lose. So in their fusion there appears to be the | hope of satisfaction and of peace. You see yourself divided into both |

| Tx:31.36 | another answer to be found. Learn now, without despair, there is no | hope of answer in the world. But do not judge the lesson which is but |
| Tx:31.36 | world which seems to point to still another road. No longer look for | hope where there is none. Make fast your learning now, and understand |

| W1:53.4 | Nothing in madness is dependable. It holds out no safety and no | hope. But such a world is not real. I have given it the illusion of |

| W1:92.11 | day in preparation for the time at night when we will meet again in | hope and trust. Let us repeat as often as we can the idea for today |
| W1:95.3 | your One Self, which is united with its Creator. In patience and in | hope we try again today. |

| W1:101.10 | road, and now today's idea brings wings to speed you on and | hope to go still faster to the waiting goal of peace. There is no |

| W1:109.8 | the bird begin to sing and see the stream begin to flow again, with | hope reborn and energy restored to walk with lightened steps along |
| W1:121.2 | the turmoil of the world. The unforgiving mind is sad, without the | hope of respite and release from pain. It suffers and abides in |
| W1:121.4 | live, yet wishes it were dead. It wants forgiveness, yet it sees no | hope. It wants escape, yet can conceive of none because it sees the |
| W1:121.7 | you and turns to you imploringly for Heaven here and now. It has no | hope, but you become its hope. And as its hope, do you become your |
| W1:121.7 | for Heaven here and now. It has no hope, but you become its | hope. And as its hope, do you become your own. The unforgiving mind |
| W1:121.7 | here and now. It has no hope, but you become its hope. And as its | hope, do you become your own. The unforgiving mind must learn through |

| W1:153.4 | the ego would exact. In them lies madness in a form so grim that | hope of sanity seems but to be an idle dream, beyond the possible. |
| W1:153.13 | You who have played that you are lost to | hope, abandoned by your Father, left alone in terror in a fearful |
| W1:159.10 | transition can be made from death to life, from hopelessness to | hope. Let us an instant dream with Him. His dream awakens us to |
| W1:161.8 | fear must spawn. It shrieks in wrath and claws the air in frantic | hope it can reach to its maker and devour him. |

| W1:170.6 | you turn for solace and escape from doubts about your strength and | hope of rest in dreamless quiet. And as love is shorn of what belongs |
| W1:185.7 | do not ask for compromise nor try to make another bargain in the | hope that there may yet be one which can succeed where all the rest |
| W1:185.14 | desires with the need of every heart, the call of every mind, the | hope that lies beyond despair, the love attack would hide, the |
| W1:186.10 | that they change ten times an hour at their most secure. What | hope of gain can rest on goals like this? |
| W1:189.1 | you is to see the world anew, shining in innocence, alive with | hope, and blessed with perfect charity and love. |
| W1:191.2 | no breath you draw that does not seem to bring you nearer death, no | hope you hold but will dissolve in tears. |
| W1:191.3 | and death. And watch despair snatch from your fingers every scrap of | hope, leaving you nothing but the wish to die. |
| W1:195.3 | but a black despair so bitter and relentless that there is no | hope remaining. Now is vengeance all there is to wish for. Now can |

| W1:198.6 | His words will work. His words will save. His words contain all | hope, all blessing and all joy that ever can be found upon this |
| W1:199.7 | gift to Him. For He would give you perfect freedom, perfect joy, and | hope that finds its full accomplishment in God. |
| W1:200.2 | final point to which each one must come at last, to lay aside all | hope of finding happiness where there is none, of being saved by what |
| W1:200.6 | that he imagines, yet believes are true, a worthy purpose? Who could | hope for more while there appears to be a choice to make between |
| W1:200.7 | God's Will and to his own, which is the same as His. What could he | hope to find in such a world? It cannot have reality because it never |
| W2:WF.5 | through Him Who is your Guide, your Savior and Defender, strong in | hope, and certain of your ultimate success. He has forgiven you |
| W2:241.1 | of salvation dawns today upon a world set free. This is the time of | hope for countless millions. They will be united now as you forgive |
| W2:245.1 | those who suffer pain or grieve for loss or think they are bereft of | hope and happiness. Send them to me, my Father. Let me bring Your |
| W2:247.2 | and my own Self as well. Today I honor You through them, and thus I | hope this day to recognize my Self. |
| W2:WIC.2 | that separation is no more than an illusion of despair. For | hope forever will abide in Him. Your mind is part of His and His of |
| W2:286.1 | In You has every conflict been resolved. In You is everything I | hope to find already given me. Your peace is mine. My heart is quiet |
| W2:286.2 | The stillness of today will give us | hope that we have found the way and traveled far along it to a wholly |
| W2:314.1 | extending its security and peace into a quiet future filled with | hope? |
| W2:332.1 | does the light shine through the dream of darkness, offering it | hope and giving it the means to realize the freedom that is its |

| M:I.4 | God sends His teachers. And as they teach His lessons of joy and | hope, their learning finally becomes complete. |
| M:I.5 | Except for God's teachers, there would be no | hope of salvation, for the world of sin would seem forever “real.” |
| M:1.4 | and the world is very tired now. It is old and worn and without | hope. There was never a question of outcome, for what can change the |
| M:4.13 | destroys honesty and shatters trust. No teacher of God can judge and | hope to learn. |
| M:13.4 | sacrifices all his peace. And to possess them must he sacrifice his | hope of Heaven and remembrance of his Father's Love. Who in his sane |

| Tx:2.88 | no one remains fully aware of it all the time. However, if anyone | hopes to spare himself from fear, there are some things he must |
| Tx:4.11 | correct [them] very gently and lead you home. Every good teacher | hopes to give his students so much of his own thinking that they will |

| W1:66.14 | periods, which would be most helpful today if undertaken twice an | hour, this form of the application is suggested: |
| W1:67.7 | mind is so preoccupied with false self-images. Four or five times an | hour, and perhaps even more, it would be most beneficial to remind |
| W1:68.13 | In addition, repeat the idea several times an | hour in this form: |
| W1:71.15 | Try to remember the idea for today some six or seven times an | hour. There could be no better way to spend a half-minute or less |
| W1:72.18 | One or perhaps two shorter practice periods an | hour will be enough for today since they will be somewhat longer than |
| W1:73.17 | This should be repeated several times an | hour. It is most important, however, to apply today's idea in this |
| W1:75.11 | reminders of your release. Remind yourself every quarter of an | hour or so that today is a time for special celebration. Give thanks |
| W1:76.14 | as often as possible today—at least four or five times an | hour, as well as in response to any temptation to experience |
| W1:91.14 | Five or six times an | hour at reasonably regular intervals remind yourself that miracles |

| W1:93.12 | not be willing or even able to use the first five minutes of each | hour for these exercises. Try, however, to do so when you can. At |
| W1:93.12 | do so when you can. At least remember to repeat these thoughts each | hour: |
| W1:94.3 | Today we will again devote the first five minutes of each waking | hour to the attempt to feel the truth in you. Begin these times of |
| W1:94.7 | the requirement of practicing for the first five minutes of every | hour, at least remind yourself hourly: |
| W1:95.4 | The use of the first five minutes of every waking | hour for practicing the idea for the day has special advantages at |

| W1:95.7 | you to omit as few as possible. Using the first five minutes of the | hour will be particularly helpful since it imposes firmer structure. |

| W1:97.6 | The Holy Spirit will be glad to take five minutes of each | hour from your hands and carry them around this aching world, where |
| W1:98.5 | Is it not worth five minutes of your time each | hour to be able to accept the happiness that God has given you? Is it |
| W1:98.5 | to recognize your special function here? Is not five minutes of the | hour but a small request to make in terms of a reward so great it has |

| W1:124.8 | fit today, certain He will not fail. Abide with Him this half an | hour. He will do the rest. |
| W1:124.9 | it when it dawns with certainty upon your mind. This half an | hour will be framed in gold, with every minute like a diamond set |
| W1:124.10 | you will see your own transfiguration in the glass this holy half an | hour will hold out to you to look upon yourself. When you are ready, |
| W1:124.10 | You will remember then the thought to which you gave this half an | hour, thankfully aware no time was ever better spent. |
| W1:124.11 | to you, the loveliness you look on is your own. Count this half | hour as your gift to God, in certainty that His return will be a |
| W1:125.10 | As every | hour passes by today, be still a moment and remind yourself you have |
| W1:127.11 | outside our love if we would know our Self. At least three times an | hour think of one who makes the journey with you and who came to |
| W1:134.15 | That this may be accomplished, let us give a quarter of an | hour twice today and spend it with the Guide Who understands the |
| W1:136.15 | the truth. This is our aim today. And we will give a quarter of an | hour twice to ask the truth to come to us and set us free. |
| W1:137.13 | We will remember, as the | hour strikes, our function is to let our minds be healed that we may |
| W1:137.13 | for joy, and separation for the peace of God. Is not a minute of the | hour worth the giving to receive a gift like this? Is not a little |
| W1:137.16 | there was attack. Nor will we let this function be forgot as every | hour of the day slips by, remembering our function with this thought: |
| W1:138.12 | eyes in sleep tonight, we reaffirm the choice that we have made each | hour in between. And now we give the last five minutes of our waking |
| W1:138.12 | of our waking day to the decision with which we awoke. As every | hour passed, we have declared our choice again in a brief quiet time |
| W1:139.13 | of creation, we repeat our dedication to our cause today each | hour, as we lay aside all thoughts that would distract us from our |
| W1:140.14 | we will say our prayer for healing hourly and take a minute as the | hour strikes to hear the answer to our prayer be given us as we |
| W1:R4.11 | Each | hour of the day bring to your mind the thought with which the day |
| W1:153.15 | to arise to turn us from our purpose, we will find that half an | hour is too short a time to spend with God. Nor will we willingly |
| W1:153.16 | Each | hour adds to our increasing peace, as we remember to be faithful to |
| W1:153.16 | a minute, even less, will be the most that we can offer as the | hour strikes. Sometimes we will forget. At other times the business |

| W1:186.10 | the world esteems are so uncertain that they change ten times an | hour at their most secure. What hope of gain can rest on goals like |
| W1:193.16 | Each | hour spend a little time today, and in the days to come, in |
| W1:193.16 | for the day. And try to give it application to the happenings the | hour brought, so that the next one is free of the one before. The |
| W1:193.17 | Let no one | hour cast its shadow on the one that follows, and when that one goes, |
| W1:R6.5 | The day begins and ends with this. And we repeat it every time the | hour strikes or we remember in between we have a function that |
| W2:271.1 | Each day, each | hour, every instant, I am choosing what I want to look upon, the |
| M:16.4 | so. Duration is not the major concern. One can easily sit still an | hour with closed eyes and accomplish nothing. One can as easily give |
| M:16.11 | illusion—that it works. All through his training, every day and | hour, and even every minute and second, must God's teachers learn to |

| W1:94.11 | Make every effort to do the | hourly exercises today. Each one you do will be a giant stride toward |
| W1:96.9 | mind is guaranteed by Him Who speaks to you from your One Self. Our | hourly five minute practicing will be a search for Him within your |
| W1:98.5 | the happiness that God has given you? Is it not worth five minutes | hourly to recognize your special function here? Is not five minutes |
| W1:102.7 | than He Whose Love created him as loving as Himself. Besides these | hourly five minute rests, pause frequently today to tell yourself |
| W1:104.4 | Our longer practice periods today, the | hourly five minutes given truth for your salvation, should begin with |
| W1:105.11 | less is worthless when you cannot give Him more. At least remember | hourly to say the words which call on Him to give you what He wills |
| W1:109.7 | to flow again. The world is born again each time you rest, and | hourly remember that you came to bring the peace of God into the |
| W1:123.8 | His care for you, how perfect is His gratitude to you. Remember | hourly to think of Him and give Him thanks for everything He gave His |
| W1:124.12 | to the golden frame that holds the mirror offered you today by | hourly repeating to yourself: |
| W1:129.11 | and we are grateful that the choice is made. Remember your decision | hourly, and take a moment to confirm your choice by laying by |
| W1:140.14 | This will we learn today. And we will say our prayer for healing | hourly and take a minute as the hour strikes to hear the answer to |
| W1:151.17 | And we will | hourly remember Him Who is salvation and deliverance. As we give |
| W1:152.15 | In patience wait for Him throughout the day and | hourly invite Him with the words with which the day began, concluding |
| W1:153.17 | Yet when we can, we will observe our trust as ministers of God in | hourly remembrance of our mission and His Love. And we will quietly |
| W1:R6.1 | and evening, which should not be less than 15 minutes, and the | hourly remembrances we make throughout the day, use the idea as often |
| W2:I.2 | we will need for the result that we desire. Nor will we forget our | hourly remembrance in between, calling to God when we have need of |

| Tx:3.63 | You have no | idea of the tremendous release and deep peace that comes from meeting |
| Tx:3.65 | likely to laugh at others, if only because you cannot tolerate the | idea of being more debased than they are. All of this does make you |
| Tx:3.76 | to fear of retaliation by a “father figure,” a particularly curious | idea in view of the fact that no one uses the term to refer to the |
| Tx:3.80 | it was given you from beyond this world. Only in this world is the | idea of an authority problem meaningful. The world is not left by |
| Tx:4.5 | example of the kind of thinking which stems from it. The | idea of buying and selling implies precisely the kind of exchange |
| Tx:4.6 | quite frequently in the Bible. To profess is to identify with an | idea and offer the idea to others to be their own. The idea does not |
| Tx:4.6 | in the Bible. To profess is to identify with an idea and offer the | idea to others to be their own. The idea does not lessen; it becomes |
| Tx:4.6 | with an idea and offer the idea to others to be their own. The | idea does not lessen; it becomes stronger. |
| Tx:4.25 | There could be no better example of the fact that the ego is an | idea, though not a reality-based thought. |
| Tx:4.28 | merely know God. Belief that there is another way is the loftiest | idea of which ego thinking is capable. That is because it contains a |
| Tx:4.32 | as its home and does try to satisfy itself through the body, but the | idea that this is possible is a decision of the ego, which is |
| Tx:4.38 | to evaluate it unless its status as fact is questioned. Every | idea to which the ego has accorded the status of fact is |
| Tx:4.49 | you have for the self you have made. You project onto your own | idea of yourself the will to separate, which conflicts with the love |
| Tx:4.52 | It has never really entered your mind to give up every | idea you ever had that opposes knowledge. You retain thousands of |
| Tx:4.54 | Any distinction in this respect is meaningful only when the | idea of “getting,” which implies a lack, has already been accepted. |
| Tx:4.70 | threat or non-threat to itself. In one sense the ego's fear of the | idea of God is at least logical, since this idea does dispel the ego. |
| Tx:4.70 | the ego's fear of the idea of God is at least logical, since this | idea does dispel the ego. Fear of dissolution from the Higher Source, |
| Tx:4.71 | eagerly. Yet the ego hates the body because it does not accept the | idea that the body is good enough to be its home. Here is where the |
| Tx:4.76 | defeated. The ego has countenanced some strange compromises with the | idea of the eternal, making many odd attempts to relate the concept |
| Tx:4.77 | examples. A more recent ego attempt is particularly noteworthy. The | idea of preserving the body by suspension, thus giving it the kind of |
| Tx:4.87 | convinced as yet. The very fact that you are preoccupied with the | idea of escaping from the ego shows this. |
| Tx:5.6 | a physical possession, you do divide its ownership. If you share an | idea, however, you do not lessen it. All of it is still yours, |
| Tx:5.8 | more who believe in them, the stronger they become. Everything is an | idea. How, then, is it possible that giving and losing can be |
| Tx:5.21 | light. The Holy Spirit is the radiance that you must let banish the | idea of darkness. His is the glory before which dissociation falls |
| Tx:5.28 | to awake and be glad. The world is very tired, because it is the | idea of weariness. Our task is the joyous one of waking it to the |
| Tx:5.33 | The Holy Spirit is the | idea of healing. Being thought, the idea gains as it is shared. Being |
| Tx:5.33 | The Holy Spirit is the idea of healing. Being thought, the | idea gains as it is shared. Being the Call for God, it is also the |

| Tx:5.33 | is also the idea of God. Since you are part of God, it is also the | idea of yourself as well as of all the parts of God. The idea of the |
| Tx:5.33 | is also the idea of yourself as well as of all the parts of God. The | idea of the Holy Spirit shares the property of other ideas, because |
| Tx:5.35 | it is limited by your unwillingness to hear it. Will itself is an | idea and is therefore strengthened by being shared. If you make the |
| Tx:5.36 | of the ego, because time is its concept. Delay is obviously a time | idea. Both time and delay are meaningless in eternity. We have said |
| Tx:5.37 | is with the ego and the Soul, with time and eternity. Eternity is an | idea of God, so the Soul understands it perfectly. Time is a belief |
| Tx:5.39 | If you believe there is strife, you will react viciously because the | idea of danger has entered your mind. The idea itself is an appeal to |
| Tx:5.39 | viciously because the idea of danger has entered your mind. The | idea itself is an appeal to the ego. |
| Tx:5.40 | for a split mind. It was not an act, but a thought. Therefore, the | idea of separation can be given away, just as the idea of unity can. |
| Tx:5.40 | Therefore, the idea of separation can be given away, just as the | idea of unity can. Either way, the idea will be strengthened in the |

| Tx:5.49 | the error, which is only part of healing. Your concept lacked the | idea of undoing it. What you were really advocating, then, was |
| Tx:5.57 | must devote themselves first to healing, because having received the | idea of healing, they must give it to hold it. The full power of |
| Tx:5.62 | However ridiculous the | idea of attacking God may be to the sane mind, never forget that the |
| Tx:5.83 | The | idea of “set” is among the better psychological concepts. Actually, |
| Tx:6.23 | of “punishment” involves the projection of blame and reinforces the | idea that blame is justified. The behavior that results is a lesson |
| Tx:6.33 | future only because your mind is not in perfect alignment with the | idea and therefore does not want it now. |
| Tx:6.35 | The ego can accept the | idea that return is necessary because it can so easily make the idea |
| Tx:6.35 | the idea that return is necessary because it can so easily make the | idea seem so difficult. Yet the Holy Spirit tells you that even |
| Tx:6.35 | any problem. It does not follow, however, that you cannot make the | idea of return [both] necessary and difficult. It is surely clear, |
| Tx:6.39 | projecting and being. This is because, as we have said before, every | idea begins in the mind of the thinker and extends outward. |
| Tx:6.44 | Only thus can you win back the knowledge that you threw away. An | idea which you share, you must have. It awakens in you through the |
| Tx:7.28 | of their brothers as anything other than their perfect equals, the | idea of competition has entered their minds. Do not underestimate |
| Tx:7.28 | minds. Do not underestimate your need to be vigilant against this | idea, because all your conflicts come from it. It is the belief that |
| Tx:7.45 | Love is incapable of any exceptions. Only if there is fear does the | idea of exceptions seem to be meaningful. Exceptions are fearful, |
| Tx:7.63 | cannot coexist in peace and if you want peace, you must give up the | idea of conflict entirely and for all time. [This requires vigilance |
| Tx:7.85 | value is severely limited by his confusion. A second fallacy is the | idea that you can get rid of something you do not want by giving it |
| Tx:7.90 | against the belief that you can be alone, thus dispelling the | idea of separation and affirming your true identification with the |
| Tx:7.101 | about joy and pain. This confusion is the cause of the whole | idea of sacrifice. Obey the Holy Spirit, and you will be giving up |
| Tx:8.53 | can get you something you want. If you did not believe this, the | idea of attack would have no appeal for you. When you equate yourself |
| Tx:9.15 | ego believes that all functions belong to it, even though it has no | idea what they are. This is more than mere confusion. It is a |
| Tx:9.15 | It is totally unpredictable in its responses, because it has no | idea of what it perceives. |
| Tx:9.16 | If one has no | idea of what is happening, how appropriately can you expect him to |
| Tx:9.20 | he is more likely to start with the equally incredible | idea that he really believes in attack and so does the patient, but |
| Tx:9.95 | because, having made him out of your insanity, he is an insane | idea. He has many forms, but although he may seem like many different |
| Tx:9.95 | but although he may seem like many different things he is but one | idea—the denial of God. |
| Tx:10.44 | Every | idea has a purpose, and its purpose is always the natural extension |
| Tx:10.49 | foundation by this awareness. For though you may countenance a false | idea of independence, you will not accept the cost of fear if you |
| Tx:11.43 | strong do not attack because they see no need to do so. Before the | idea of attack can enter your mind, you must have perceived yourself |
| Tx:11.94 | look upon him as guiltless can you understand his oneness. For the | idea of guilt brings a belief in condemnation of one by another, |
| Tx:12.2 | concealing it. You do experience guilt feelings, but you have no | idea why. On the contrary, you associate them with a weird assortment |
| Tx:12.2 | of ego ideals which the ego claims you have failed. Yet you have no | idea that you are failing the Son of God by seeing him as guilty. |
| Tx:12.3 | him to death. You do not even suspect this murderous but insane | idea lies hidden there, for the ego's destructive urge is so intense |
| Tx:13.15 | Would you, then, teach him that he is right in his delusion? The | idea that the guiltless Son of God can attack himself and make |
| Tx:13.30 | from His. Until you recognize that this is true, you will have no | idea what love is like. No one who condemns a brother can see himself |
| Tx:15.59 | yours. That is because you recognize, however dimly, that God is an | idea, and so your faith in Him is strengthened by sharing. What you |
| Tx:15.59 | difficult to accept is the fact that, like your Father, you are an | idea. And like Him, you can give yourself completely, wholly without |
| Tx:15.60 | that perfect love is in him. In the holy instant, you recognize the | idea of love in you and unite this idea with the mind that thought it |
| Tx:15.60 | holy instant, you recognize the idea of love in you and unite this | idea with the mind that thought it and could not relinquish it. By |
| Tx:15.63 | It is through us that peace will come. Join me in the | idea of peace, for in ideas minds can communicate. If you would give |
| Tx:15.63 | and its conditions are in the mind with it. If you were not only an | idea and nothing else, you could not be in full communication with |
| Tx:15.70 | or another, every relationship which the ego makes is based on the | idea that by sacrificing itself, it becomes bigger. The “sacrifice,” |
| Tx:15.90 | conception of the limits you have placed on your perception and no | idea of all the loveliness that you could see. But this you must |
| Tx:15.95 | the same. For though the ego takes many forms, it is always the same | idea. What is not love is always fear and nothing else. It is not |
| Tx:15.95 | them not as separate but as different manifestations of the same | idea, and one you do not want, they go together. The idea is simply |
| Tx:15.95 | of the same idea, and one you do not want, they go together. The | idea is simply this—you believe that it is possible to be host to |
| Tx:15.96 | —sacrifice is attack, not love. If you would accept but this one | idea, your fear of love would vanish. Guilt cannot last when the idea |
| Tx:15.96 | one idea, your fear of love would vanish. Guilt cannot last when the | idea of sacrifice has been removed. For if there is sacrifice, as you |
| Tx:15.98 | Each form will be recognized as but a cover for the one | idea that hides behind them all—that love demands sacrifice and is |
| Tx:15.98 | in which you are both destroyer and destroyed in part, but with the | idea of being able to be neither completely. And this you think saves |
| Tx:15.101 | Fear not to recognize the whole | idea of sacrifice as solely of your making. And seek not safety by |
| Tx:15.102 | of any kind of anyone is asked by Him. In His Presence, the whole | idea of sacrifice loses all meaning. For He is Host to God. And you |
| Tx:16.13 | mind and joined with it. When two minds join as one and share one | idea equally, the first link in the awareness of the Sonship as one |
| Tx:16.47 | the self, for nothing would remain to interfere with it. This is its | idea of Heaven. From this it follows that union, which is a condition |
| Tx:17.5 | are unreal and thus enable you to escape from them. Reserve not one | idea aside from truth, or you establish orders of reality which must |
| Tx:17.36 | acceptance of the gift of death. When you who are truth accept an | idea so dangerous to truth, you threaten truth with destruction. And |
| Tx:17.59 | be wrong. Not only is your judgment in the past, but you have no | idea what should happen. No goal was set with which to bring the |
| Tx:17.65 | be in conflict. But if the goal is truth, this is impossible. Some | idea of bodies must have entered, for minds cannot attack. |
| Tx:17.70 | far beyond your little conception of the infinite that you have no | idea how great the strength that goes with you. And you can use this |
| Tx:18.6 | drawn between you and the truth. For truth extends inward, where the | idea of loss is meaningless and only increase is conceivable. Do you |
| Tx:18.19 | They are your protest against reality and your fixed and insane | idea that you can change it. In your waking dreams, the special |
| Tx:18.39 | must be more that you need do. [You find it difficult to accept the | idea that you need give so little to receive so much.] And it is very |
| Tx:18.60 | anywhere—a sound, a sight, a thought, a memory, and even a general | idea without specific reference. Yet in every case, you joined it |
| Tx:18.71 | you. Can you who see yourselves within a body know yourself as an | idea? Everything you recognize you identify with externals, something |
| Tx:18.72 | body is a tiny fence around a little part of a glorious and complete | idea. It draws a circle, infinitely small, around a very little |
| Tx:18.76 | whole be whole without it. It is not a separate kingdom, ruled by an | idea of separation from the rest. Nor does a fence surround it, |
| Tx:19.8 | where separation is and where it must be healed. The result of an | idea is never separate from its source. The idea of separation |
| Tx:19.8 | healed. The result of an idea is never separate from its source. The | idea of separation produced the body and remains connected to it, |
| Tx:19.16 | lord of all along with his Creator. You can enslave a body, but an | idea is free, incapable of being kept in prison or limited in any way |
| Tx:19.18 | Sin is not an error, for sin entails an arrogance which the | idea of error lacks. To sin would be to violate reality and to |
| Tx:19.19 | is its purpose. Yet for all the wild insanity inherent in the whole | idea of sin, it is impossible. For the wages of sin is death, and how |
| Tx:19.21 | to reinterpret sin as error is always indefensible to the ego. The | idea of sin is wholly sacrosanct to its thought system and quite |
| Tx:19.22 | seems to have is found in this. For sin has changed creation from an | idea of God to an ideal the ego wants; a world it rules, made up of |
| Tx:19.23 | in all the ego's embattled citadel more heavily defended than the | idea that sin is real—the natural expression of what the Son of God |
| Tx:19.25 | guilt remains attractive the mind will suffer and not let go of the | idea of sin. For guilt still calls to it, and the mind hears it and |
| Tx:19.25 | it, making itself a willing captive to its sick appeal. Sin is an | idea of evil that cannot be corrected and will be forever desirable. |
| Tx:19.61 | of the perception of Atonement as murder. Here is the source of the | idea that love is fear. The Holy Spirit's messengers are sent far |
| Tx:19.68 | Your little part is but to give the Holy Spirit the whole | idea of sacrifice. And to accept the peace He gave instead, without |
| Tx:19.72 | becomes the servant of pain, seeking it dutifully and obeying the | idea that pain is pleasure. It is this idea that underlies all of the |
| Tx:19.72 | it dutifully and obeying the idea that pain is pleasure. It is this | idea that underlies all of the ego's heavy investment in the body. |
| Tx:19.79 | ego's, you renounced death, exchanging it for life. We know that an | idea leaves not its source. And death is the result of the thought we |
| Tx:19.82 | nor incorruptible. It is nothing. It is the result of a tiny mad | idea of corruption which can be corrected. For God has answered this |
| Tx:19.82 | corruption which can be corrected. For God has answered this insane | idea with His own, an Answer which left Him not and therefore brings |
| Tx:19.88 | mean everything or nothing, according to the truth or falsity of the | idea which they reflect. Confronted with such seeming uncertainty of |
| Tx:20.52 | to be what it is not. No more than that. The instant that the mad | idea of making your relationship with God unholy seemed to be |
| Tx:20.52 | that unholy instant, time was born and bodies made to house the mad | idea and give it the illusion of reality. And so it seemed to have a |
| Tx:20.52 | a little while in time and vanished. For what could house this mad | idea against reality but for an instant? |
| Tx:21.20 | exchange of separation for salvation. All that the ego is, is an | idea that it is possible that things should happen to the Son of God |
| Tx:21.21 | leave himself without what God has willed for him. This is the mad | idea you have enshrined upon your altars and which you worship. And |
| Tx:21.30 | If you accept this change, you have accepted the | idea of making room for truth. The source of sin is gone. You may |
| Tx:21.52 | You do not realize the whole extent to which the | idea of separation has interfered with reason. Reason lies in the |
| Tx:22.6 | description earlier, but it was not of you. And yet this strange | idea, which it does accurately describe, you think is you. Reason |
| Tx:22.20 | reason looks on this another way, for reason sees the source of an | idea as what will make it true or false. This must be so if the idea |
| Tx:22.20 | an idea as what will make it true or false. This must be so if the | idea is like its source. Therefore, says reason, if escape from guilt |
| Tx:22.24 | is the same belief that caused the separation. It is the meaningless | idea that thoughts can leave the thinker's mind, be different from |
| Tx:22.34 | These eyes, made not to see, will never see. For the | idea they represent left not its maker, and it is their maker that |
| Tx:22.52 | contradictory and so impossible that anyone who chooses this has no | idea of what is valuable. Yet even in this confusion, so profound it |
| Tx:23.43 | Salvation gives up nothing. It is complete for everyone. Let the | idea of compromise but enter, and the awareness of salvation's |
| Tx:23.47 | illusion is an assault on truth, and every one does violence to the | idea of love because it seems to be of equal truth. |
| Tx:24.14 | Specialness is the | idea of sin made real. Sin is impossible even to imagine without this |
| Tx:24.71 | to His love and shared His purpose, so does the body testify to the | idea that made it and speak for its reality and truth. |
| Tx:25.61 | Salvation is rebirth of the | idea no one can lose for anyone to gain. And everyone must gain if |
| Tx:25.63 | to no one you would not know. This much is necessary to add to the | idea no one can lose for you to gain. And nothing more. |
| Tx:25.67 | where would justice be if He demanded of the ones obsessed with the | idea of punishment that they lay it aside unaided and perceive it is |
| Tx:26.1 | In the “dynamics” of attack is sacrifice a key | idea. It is the pivot upon which all compromise, all desperate |
| Tx:26.11 | to truth than is another. For there is but one mistake—the whole | idea that loss is possible and could result in gain for anyone. If |
| Tx:26.47 | the separation is denied, it goes. For it is gone as soon as the | idea which brought it has been healed and been replaced by sanity. |
| Tx:26.60 | ideas leave not their source. Such is creation's law—that each | idea the mind conceives but adds to its abundance, never takes away. |
| Tx:26.61 | A tiny sacrifice is just the same in its effects as is the whole | idea of sacrifice. If loss in any form is possible, then is God's Son |
| Tx:26.73 | is difficult to credit in advance. Nor is there really sense in this | idea. |
| Tx:26.87 | be unfairly treated. The belief you are is but another form of the | idea you are deprived by someone not yourself. Projection of the |
| Tx:27.25 | because that is its purpose, being what it really is. From an | idea of self as two, there comes a necessary view of function split |
| Tx:27.29 | the concept which it attacks. And by this does it join to the | idea a something it is not and make it unintelligible. Who can |
| Tx:27.82 | done to him. Into eternity, where all is one, there crept a tiny mad | idea at which the Son of God remembered not to laugh. In his |
| Tx:27.82 | not to laugh. In his forgetting did the thought become a serious | idea and possible of both accomplishment and real effects. Together, |
| Tx:29.17 | can not be sick. In your demand that it be more than this lies the | idea of sickness. For it asks that God be less than all He really is. |
| Tx:29.28 | It does not matter if they be fulfilled or merely wanted. It is the | idea that they exist from which the fears arise. Dreams are not |
| Tx:29.29 | to every figure which the dream contains. No one can fail but your | idea of him, and there is no betrayal but of this. The core of dreams |
| Tx:29.54 | leave the mind that is its source. Nor is its form apart from the | idea it represents. All forms of anti-Christ oppose the Christ and |
| Tx:29.57 | This is the anti-Christ—the strange | idea there is a power past omnipotence, a place beyond the infinite, |
| Tx:29.57 | the eternal. Here the world of idols has been set by the | idea this power and place and time are given form and shape the world |
| Tx:30.40 | incomplete. Only if you had sinned could this be so. For sin is the | idea you are alone and separated off from what is whole. And thus it |
| Tx:30.86 | who loses. There could be no thought of sacrifice apart from this | idea. And it is this idea of different goals which makes perception |
| Tx:30.86 | be no thought of sacrifice apart from this idea. And it is this | idea of different goals which makes perception shift and meaning |
| W1:I.4 | you see in it. Each day's exercises are planned around one central | idea, the exercises themselves consisting of applying that idea to as |
| W1:I.4 | central idea, the exercises themselves consisting of applying that | idea to as many specifics as possible. Be sure that you do not decide |
| W1:I.4 | you do not decide that there are some things you see to which the | idea for the day is inapplicable. The aim of the exercises will |
| W1:I.4 | of the exercises will always be to increase the application of the | idea to everything. This will not require effort. Only be sure that |
| W1:I.4 | effort. Only be sure that you make no exceptions in applying the | idea. |
| W1:1.1 | Now look slowly around you, and practice applying this | idea very specifically to whatever you see: |
| W1:1.3 | Then look farther away from your immediate area, and apply the | idea to a wider range: |
| W1:1.5 | is merely applied to anything you see. As you practice applying the | idea for the day, use it totally indiscriminately. Do not attempt to |
| W1:1.5 | excluded. One thing is like another as far as the application of the | idea is concerned. |
| W1:2.1 | The exercises with this | idea are the same as those for the first one. Begin with the things |
| W1:2.1 | first one. Begin with the things that are near you, and apply the | idea to whatever your glance rests on. Then increase the range |
| W1:2.1 | whatever is to either side. If possible, turn around and apply the | idea to what was behind you. Remain as indiscriminate as possible in |
| W1:2.2 | or a floor, an arm or an apple. The sole criterion for applying the | idea to anything is merely that your eyes have lighted on it. Make no |
| W1:3.1 | Apply this | idea in the same way as the previous ones, without making |
| W1:3.1 | any kind. Whatever you see becomes a proper subject for applying the | idea. Be sure that you do not question the suitability of anything |
| W1:3.1 | not question the suitability of anything for the application of the | idea. These are not exercises in judgment. Anything is suitable if |
| W1:3.2 | mind, unhampered by judgment, in selecting the things to which the | idea for the day is to be applied. For this purpose one thing is like |
| W1:4.1 | Unlike the preceding ones, these exercises do not begin with the | idea for the day. In these practice periods, begin with noting the |
| W1:4.1 | that are crossing your mind for about a minute. Then apply the | idea to them. If you are already aware of unhappy thoughts, use them |
| W1:4.1 | are already aware of unhappy thoughts, use them as subjects for the | idea. Do not, however, select only the thoughts you think are “bad.” |
| W1:4.2 | In selecting the subjects for the application of today's | idea, the usual specificity is required. Do not be afraid to use |
| W1:4.3 | and what is different. In using your thoughts for application of the | idea for today, identify each thought by the central figure or event |
| W1:4.5 | You can also use the | idea for a particular thought which you recognize as harmful. This |
| W1:5.1 | This | idea, like the preceding one, can be used with any person, situation, |
| W1:5.1 | a proper subject for the exercises for the day. Applying the same | idea to each of them separately is the first step in ultimately |
| W1:5.2 | When using the | idea for today for a specific perceived cause of an upset in any |
| W1:5.8 | You may also find yourself less willing to apply today's | idea to some perceived sources of upset than to others. If this |
| W1:5.10 | regardless of the relative importance you may give them. Apply the | idea for today to each of them, using the name of both the source of |
| W1:6.1 | The exercises with this | idea are very similar to the preceding ones. Again, it is necessary |
| W1:6.1 | the perceived source very specifically for any application of the | idea. For example: |
| W1:6.3 | Today's | idea is useful for application to anything that seems to upset you |
| W1:6.3 | or so of mind searching, as before, and the application of the | idea to each upsetting thought uncovered in the search. |
| W1:6.4 | Again, if you resist applying the | idea to some upsetting thoughts more than to others, remind yourself |
| W1:7.1 | This | idea is particularly difficult to believe at first. Yet it is the |
| W1:7.8 | that is precisely why you need new ideas about time. This first time | idea is not really so strange as it may sound at first. Look at a |
| W1:7.9 | this cup except what you learned in the past? You would have no | idea what this cup is except for your past learning. Do you, then, |
| W1:7.10 | true of whatever you look at. Acknowledge this by applying the | idea for today indiscriminately to whatever catches your eye. For |
| W1:8.1 | This | idea is, of course, the reason why you see only the past. No one |
| W1:8.10 | however, to include your irritation, or any emotion which the | idea for today may induce in the mind searching itself. |
| W1:9.1 | This | idea obviously follows from the two preceding ones. But while you may |
| W1:9.2 | believe that what seems to be pictured before it is not there. This | idea can be quite disturbing and may meet with active resistance in |
| W1:9.3 | periods are sufficient, involve looking about you and applying the | idea for the day to whatever you see, remembering the need for its |
| W1:10.1 | This | idea applies to all the thoughts of which you are aware or become |
| W1:10.1 | are aware or become aware in the practice periods. The reason the | idea is applicable to all of them is that they are not your real |
| W1:10.2 | This is the second time we have used this kind of | idea. The form is only slightly different. This time the idea is |
| W1:10.2 | kind of idea. The form is only slightly different. This time the | idea is introduced with “My thoughts” instead of “These thoughts” and |
| W1:10.3 | This aspect of the correction process began with the | idea that the thoughts of which you are aware are meaningless, |
| W1:10.4 | your eyes for these exercises and introduce them by repeating the | idea for today quite slowly to yourself. Then add: |
| W1:10.5 | This | idea will help to release me from all that I now believe. |
| W1:10.8 | Today's | idea can obviously serve for any thought that distresses you at any |
| W1:10.8 | less if you experience discomfort. Remember, however, to repeat the | idea slowly before applying it specifically, and also to add: |
| W1:10.9 | This | idea will help to release me from all that I now believe. |
| W1:11.1 | This is the first | idea we have had which is related to a major phase of the correction |
| W1:11.1 | It seems as if the world determines what you perceive. Today's | idea introduces the concept that your thoughts determine the world |
| W1:11.1 | thoughts determine the world you see. Be glad indeed to practice the | idea in this initial form, for in this idea is your release made |
| W1:11.1 | glad indeed to practice the idea in this initial form, for in this | idea is your release made sure. The key to forgiveness lies in it. |
| W1:11.2 | The practice periods for today's | idea are to be undertaken somewhat differently from the previous |
| W1:11.2 | from the previous ones. Begin with eyes closed, and repeat the | idea slowly to yourself. Then open your eyes and look about, near or |
| W1:11.2 | or down—anywhere. During the minute or so to be spent in using the | idea, merely repeat it to yourself, being sure to do so without haste |
| W1:11.3 | in an unhurried, even leisurely fashion. The introduction to this | idea should be practiced as casually as possible. It contains the |
| W1:11.3 | achieve. On concluding the exercises, close your eyes and repeat the | idea once more, slowly, to yourself. |
| W1:12.1 | The importance of this | idea lies in the fact that it contains a correction for a major |
| W1:12.6 | that you do not alter the time intervals between applying today's | idea to what you think is pleasant and what you think is unpleasant. |
| W1:12.9 | Three or four times are enough for practicing the | idea for today. Nor should the practice periods exceed a minute. You |
| W1:13.1 | Today's | idea is really another form of the preceding one, except that it is |
| W1:13.4 | way from the preceding ones. With eyes closed, repeat today's | idea to yourself. Then open your eyes and look about you slowly, |
| W1:14.1 | The | idea for today is, of course, the reason why a meaningless world is |
| W1:14.2 | at most. Do not have more than three practice periods with today's | idea unless you find them comfortable. If you do, it will be because |
| W1:14.3 | The | idea for today is another step in learning to let go the thoughts |
| W1:14.6 | Suitable subjects for the application of today's | idea also include anything you are afraid might happen to you or to |
| W1:14.7 | of this fact, conclude the practice periods by repeating today's | idea: |
| W1:14.9 | The | idea for today can, of course, be applied to anything that disturbs |
| W1:15.2 | This introductory | idea to the process of image-making which you call seeing will not |
| W1:15.4 | In practicing the | idea for today, repeat it first to yourself, and then apply it to |
| W1:15.6 | a large number of specific subjects for the application of today's | idea. It is necessary, however, to continue to look at each subject |
| W1:15.6 | however, to continue to look at each subject while you repeat the | idea to yourself. The idea should be repeated quite slowly each time. |
| W1:15.6 | to look at each subject while you repeat the idea to yourself. The | idea should be repeated quite slowly each time. |
| W1:15.7 | Although you will obviously not be able to apply the | idea to very many things during the minute or so of practice that is |
| W1:15.7 | uneasy. Do not have more than three application periods for today's | idea unless you feel completely comfortable with it, and do not |
| W1:15.7 | completely comfortable with it, and do not exceed four. However, the | idea can be applied as needed throughout the day. |
| W1:16.1 | The | idea for today is a beginning step in dispelling the belief that your |
| W1:16.3 | all as equally destructive but equally unreal. We will practice this | idea in many forms before you really understand it. |
| W1:16.4 | In applying the | idea for today, search your mind for a minute or so, with eyes |
| W1:16.4 | which you assign to it, is a suitable subject for applying today's | idea. |
| W1:16.5 | In the practice periods, first repeat the | idea, and then as each one crosses your mind, hold it in awareness |
| W1:16.7 | As usual, use today's | idea whenever you are aware of a particular thought which arouses |
| W1:17.1 | This | idea is another step in the direction of identifying cause and effect |
| W1:17.2 | In applying today's | idea, say to yourself, with eyes open: |
| W1:18.1 | The | idea for today is another step in learning that the thoughts which |
| W1:18.1 | you see are never neutral or unimportant. It also emphasizes the | idea that minds are joined, which will be given increasing stress |
| W1:18.2 | Today's | idea does not refer to what you see as much as to how you see it. |
| W1:18.3 | Selecting subjects for the application of the | idea randomly, look at each one long enough to say: |
| W1:19.1 | The | idea for today is obviously the reason why your seeing does not |
| W1:19.2 | the fact that minds are joined. This is rarely a wholly welcome | idea at first, since it seems to carry with it an enormous sense of |
| W1:19.2 | are no private thoughts. Despite your initial resistance to this | idea, you will yet understand that it must be true if salvation is |
| W1:19.3 | today's exercises require are to be undertaken with eyes closed. The | idea is to be repeated first, and then the mind should be carefully |
| W1:19.6 | Apart from the “as needed” application of today's | idea, at least three practice periods are required, shortening the |
| W1:20.4 | yourselves throughout the day that you want to see. Today's | idea also tacitly implies the recognition that you do not see now. |
| W1:20.4 | recognition that you do not see now. Therefore, as you repeat the | idea, you are stating that you are determined to change your present |
| W1:20.5 | Repeat today's | idea slowly and positively at least twice an hour today, attempting |
| W1:21.1 | The | idea for today is obviously a continuation and extension of the |
| W1:21.1 | mind searching periods are necessary in addition to applying the | idea to particular situations as they arise. Five practice periods |
| W1:21.2 | In the practice periods, begin by repeating the | idea to yourself. Then close your eyes and search your mind carefully |
| W1:22.1 | Today's | idea accurately describes the way anyone who holds attack thoughts in |
| W1:23.1 | The | idea for today contains the only way out of fear that will ever |
| W1:23.5 | The | idea for today introduces the thought that you are not trapped in the |
| W1:23.6 | need arises, five practice periods are required in applying today's | idea. As you look about you, repeat the idea slowly to yourself and |
| W1:23.6 | required in applying today's idea. As you look about you, repeat the | idea slowly to yourself and then close your eyes and devote about a |
| W1:24.2 | conviction that you do know what they are, you cannot learn. The | idea for today is a step toward opening your mind so that learning |
| W1:24.4 | The practice periods begin with repeating today's | idea, followed by searching the mind with closed eyes for unresolved |
| W1:25.1 | Purpose is meaning. Today's | idea explains why nothing you see means anything. You do not know |
| W1:25.5 | rather than “good” or “bad,” is the only way to accomplish this. The | idea for today is a step in this direction. |
| W1:25.6 | Each practice period should begin with a slow repetition of the | idea for today followed by looking about you and letting your glance |
| W1:25.8 | the statement. Then move on to the next subject, and apply today's | idea as before. |
| W1:26.3 | The | idea for today introduces the thought that you always attack |
| W1:26.4 | Practice with today's | idea will help you to understand that vulnerability or |
| W1:26.5 | Six practice periods are required in applying today's | idea. A full two minutes should be attempted for each of them, |
| W1:26.6 | The practice period should begin with repeating the | idea for today, then closing your eyes and reviewing the unresolved |
| W1:26.6 | a longer time than usual should be spent with each one. Today's | idea should be applied as follows: |
| W1:26.15 | Conclude each practice period by repeating today's | idea once more. |
| W1:27.1 | Today's | idea expresses something stronger than mere determination. It gives |
| W1:27.1 | priority among your desires. You may feel hesitant about using the | idea on the ground that you are not sure you really mean it. This |
| W1:27.1 | The purpose of today's exercises is to bring the time when the | idea will be wholly true a little nearer. |
| W1:27.6 | The | idea for today needs many repetitions for maximum benefit. It should |
| W1:27.6 | is recommended that you set a definite time interval for using the | idea when you wake or shortly afterwards and attempt to adhere to it |
| W1:27.7 | is how often will you remember? How much do you want today's | idea to be true? Answer one of these questions, and you have answered |
| W1:27.7 | that you were perfectly sincere while you were repeating today's | idea, you can be sure that you have saved yourself many years of |
| W1:28.1 | Today we are really giving specific application to the | idea for yesterday. In these practice periods, you will be making a |
| W1:28.6 | In using the table as a subject for applying the | idea for today, you are therefore really asking to see the purpose of |
| W1:28.7 | We will have six two minute practice periods today in which the | idea for the day is stated first and then applied to whatever you see |
| W1:28.7 | randomly, but each one should be accorded equal sincerity as today's | idea is applied to it in an attempt to acknowledge the equal value of |
| W1:29.1 | The | idea for today explains why you can see all purpose in anything. It |
| W1:29.1 | why nothing you see means anything. In fact, it explains every | idea we have used thus far and all subsequent ones as well. Today's |
| W1:29.1 | idea we have used thus far and all subsequent ones as well. Today's | idea is the whole basis for vision. |
| W1:29.2 | You will probably find this | idea very difficult to grasp at this point. You may find it silly, |
| W1:29.3 | the holiness that lights up the world, you will understand today's | idea perfectly. And you will not understand how you could ever have |
| W1:29.4 | today should follow a now familiar pattern: begin with repeating the | idea to yourself, and then apply it to randomly chosen subjects about |
| W1:29.4 | which may be particularly tempting in connection with today's | idea because of its wholly alien nature. Remember that any order you |
| W1:29.7 | In addition to the assigned practice periods, repeat the | idea for today at least once an hour, looking slowly about you as you |
| W1:30.1 | The | idea for today is the springboard for vision. From this idea will the |
| W1:30.1 | The idea for today is the springboard for vision. From this | idea will the world open up before you, and you will look upon it and |
| W1:30.3 | Today's | idea should be applied as often as possible throughout the day. |
| W1:30.3 | to yourself slowly, looking about you and trying to realize that the | idea applies to everything you do see now or could see now if it were |
| W1:30.4 | such as “near” and “far.” To help you begin to get used to this | idea, try to think of things beyond your present range as well as |
| W1:30.4 | range as well as those you can actually see, as you apply today's | idea. Real vision is not only unlimited by space and distance, but it |
| W1:30.5 | To aid in helping you to become more accustomed to this | idea as well, devote several practice periods to applying today's |
| W1:30.5 | idea as well, devote several practice periods to applying today's | idea with your eyes closed, using whatever subjects come to mind and |
| W1:30.5 | come to mind and looking within rather than without. Today's | idea applies equally to both. |
| W1:31.1 | Today's | idea is the introduction to your declaration of release. Again, the |
| W1:31.1 | idea is the introduction to your declaration of release. Again, the | idea should be applied to both the world you see without and the |
| W1:31.1 | world you see without and the world you see within. In applying the | idea, we will use a form of practice which will be used more and |
| W1:31.1 | speaking, the form includes two aspects, one in which you apply the | idea on a more sustained basis, and the other consisting of frequent |
| W1:31.1 | basis, and the other consisting of frequent applications of the | idea throughout the day. |
| W1:31.2 | Two longer periods of practice with the | idea for today are needed, one in the morning and one at night. Three |
| W1:31.2 | During that time, look about you slowly while repeating the | idea two or three times. Then close your eyes and apply the same idea |
| W1:31.2 | the idea two or three times. Then close your eyes and apply the same | idea to your inner world. You will escape from both together, for the |
| W1:31.3 | part. As you sit and quietly watch your thoughts, repeat today's | idea to yourself as often as you care to, but with no sense of hurry. |
| W1:31.4 | In addition, repeat the | idea for today as often as possible during the day. Remind yourself |
| W1:31.5 | The | idea for today is a particularly useful one to use as a response to |
| W1:32.2 | The | idea for today, like the preceding ones, applies to your inner and |
| W1:32.3 | the practice periods for the morning and evening by repeating the | idea for today two or three times while looking around at the world |
| W1:32.3 | world. Try to treat them both as equally as possible. Repeat the | idea for today unhurriedly as often as you wish as you watch the |
| W1:32.5 | often as possible. The shorter applications consist of repeating the | idea slowly as you survey either your inner or outer world. It does |
| W1:32.6 | The | idea for today should also be applied immediately to any situation |
| W1:32.6 | immediately to any situation which may distress you. Apply the | idea by telling yourself: |
| W1:33.1 | Today's | idea is an attempt to recognize that you can shift your perception of |
| W1:33.2 | In these practice periods, the | idea should be repeated as often as you find profitable, though |
| W1:33.2 | uninvolved in both and to maintain this detachment as you repeat the | idea throughout the day. |
| W1:33.3 | should be as frequent as possible. Specific applications of today's | idea should also be made immediately when any situation arises which |
| W1:33.5 | Remember to apply today's | idea the instant you are aware of distress. It may be necessary to |
| W1:33.5 | be necessary to take a minute or so to sit quietly and repeat the | idea to yourself several times. Closing your eyes will probably help |
| W1:34.1 | The | idea for today begins to describe the conditions that prevail in the |
| W1:34.2 | closed. It is your inner world to which the applications of today's | idea should be made. |
| W1:34.3 | harboring unloving thoughts. Note them all casually, repeating the | idea for today slowly as you watch them arise in your mind, and let |
| W1:34.4 | difficulty in thinking of specific subjects, continue to repeat the | idea to yourself in an unhurried manner, without applying it to |
| W1:34.7 | adverse emotions, such as depression, anxiety, or worry, use the | idea in its original form. If you find you need more than one |
| W1:34.7 | form. If you find you need more than one application of today's | idea to help you change your mind in any specific context, try to |
| W1:34.7 | try to take several minutes and devote them to repeating the | idea until you feel some sense of relief. It will help you if you |
| W1:35.1 | Today's | idea does not describe the way you see yourself now. It does, |
| W1:35.3 | The | idea for today presents a very different view of yourself. By |
| W1:35.3 | We will use a somewhat different kind of application for today's | idea because the emphasis for today is on the perceiver rather than |
| W1:35.4 | three five-minute practice periods today, begin by repeating today's | idea to yourself and then close your eyes and search your mind for |
| W1:35.6 | A suitable unselected list for applying the | idea for today might be as follows: |
| W1:35.8 | your reactions to that situation, and use them in applying today's | idea. After you have named each one, add: |
| W1:35.10 | things to fill the interval, but merely relax and repeat today's | idea slowly until something occurs to you. Although nothing that does |
| W1:35.11 | attributes you are ascribing to yourself at the time and apply the | idea for today to them, adding the idea to each of them in the form |
| W1:35.11 | at the time and apply the idea for today to them, adding the | idea to each of them in the form stated above. If nothing particular |
| W1:35.11 | stated above. If nothing particular occurs to you, merely repeat the | idea to yourself with closed eyes. |
| W1:36.1 | Today's | idea extends the idea for yesterday from the perceiver to the |
| W1:36.1 | Today's idea extends the | idea for yesterday from the perceiver to the perceived. You are holy |
| W1:36.3 | First, close your eyes and repeat the | idea for today several times slowly. Then open your eyes and look |
| W1:36.3 | Then open your eyes and look quite slowly about you, applying the | idea specifically to whatever you note in your casual survey. Say, |
| W1:36.5 | times during these practice periods, close your eyes and repeat the | idea to yourself. Then open your eyes and continue as before. |
| W1:36.6 | For the shorter exercise periods, close your eyes and repeat the | idea; look about you as you repeat it again; and conclude with one |
| W1:37.1 | This | idea contains the first glimmerings of your true function in the |
| W1:37.2 | There is no other way in which the | idea of sacrifice can be removed from the world's thinking. Any other |
| W1:37.2 | As a result, the perceiver will lose. Nor will he have any | idea why he is losing. Yet is his wholeness restored to his awareness |
| W1:37.4 | three to five minutes of practice, begin with the repetition of the | idea for today followed by a minute or so of looking about you as you |
| W1:37.4 | followed by a minute or so of looking about you as you apply the | idea to whatever you see: |
| W1:37.6 | Then close your eyes and apply the | idea to any person who occurs to you, using his name and saying: |
| W1:37.8 | with your eyes closed; you may open your eyes again and apply the | idea for today to your outer world if you so desire; you may |
| W1:37.8 | outer world if you so desire; you may alternate between applying the | idea to what you see around you and to those who are in your |
| W1:37.8 | prefer. The practice period should conclude with a repetition of the | idea with your eyes closed and another following immediately with |
| W1:37.9 | The shorter exercises consist of repeating the | idea as often as you can. It is particularly helpful to apply it |
| W1:37.9 | you meet, using his name as you do so. It is essential to use the | idea if anyone seems to cause an adverse reaction in you. Offer him |
| W1:38.4 | periods, each preferably to last a full five minutes, repeat the | idea for today, close your eyes, and then search your mind for any |
| W1:38.4 | also the name of the person concerned. Use this form in applying the | idea for today: |
| W1:38.9 | In the frequent shorter applications, apply the | idea in its original form unless a specific problem concerning you or |
| W1:39.6 | Begin the practice periods as usual by repeating today's | idea to yourself. Then with closed eyes search out your unloving |
| W1:39.8 | every thought that stands between you and your salvation. Apply the | idea for today to each one of them in this way: |
| W1:39.10 | with several short periods during which you merely repeat today's | idea to yourself slowly a few times. You may also find it helpful to |
| W1:39.11 | periods in whatever form appeals to you. Do not, however, change the | idea itself in varying the method of applying it. However you elect |
| W1:39.11 | varying the method of applying it. However you elect to use it, the | idea should be stated so that its meaning remains that your holiness |
| W1:39.12 | End each practice period by repeating the | idea in its original form once more, and adding: |
| W1:39.14 | more if possible, you may ask yourself this question, repeat today's | idea, or preferably both. If temptations arise, a particularly |
| W1:39.14 | both. If temptations arise, a particularly helpful form of the | idea is: |
| W1:40.3 | Today's exercises take little time and no effort. Repeat today's | idea, and then add several of the attributes which you associate with |
| W1:41.1 | Today's | idea will eventually overcome completely the sense of loneliness and |
| W1:41.2 | The | idea for today has the power to end all this foolishness forever. And |
| W1:41.5 | eyes closed. At the beginning of the practice period, repeat today's | idea very slowly. Then make no effort to think of anything. Try |
| W1:41.6 | From time to time, you may repeat today's | idea if you find it helpful. But most of all, try to sink down and |
| W1:41.8 | Throughout the day, use today's | idea often, repeating it very slowly and preferably with eyes closed. |
| W1:42.1 | The | idea for today combines two very powerful thoughts, both of major |
| W1:42.4 | Begin the practice period by repeating the | idea for today slowly with eyes open, looking about you. Then close |
| W1:42.4 | eyes open, looking about you. Then close your eyes and repeat the | idea again, quite slowly. After this, try to think of nothing except |
| W1:42.4 | of nothing except thoughts which occur to you in relation to today's | idea. You might think, for example: |
| W1:42.7 | Any thought that is clearly related to the | idea is suitable. You may, in fact, be astonished at the amount of |
| W1:42.7 | once more while looking slowly about; close your eyes, repeat the | idea once more, and then continue to look for related thoughts in |
| W1:42.8 | the practice period alternating between slow repetitions of the | idea with eyes open, then closed, then open, and so on, than it is to |
| W1:42.9 | number of short practice periods which would be most beneficial. The | idea for the day is a beginning step in bringing thoughts together |
| W1:42.10 | The more often you repeat the | idea during the day, the more often you will be reminding yourself |
| W1:43.5 | At the beginning of these practice periods, repeat the | idea to yourself with eyes open. Then glance around you for a short |
| W1:43.5 | eyes open. Then glance around you for a short time, applying the | idea specifically to what you see. Four or five subjects for this |
| W1:43.8 | longer phase of the exercise period, close your eyes, repeat today's | idea again, and then let whatever relevant thoughts occur to you add |
| W1:43.8 | and then let whatever relevant thoughts occur to you add to the | idea in your own personal way. Thoughts such as: |
| W1:43.10 | Or any thought related more or less directly to today's | idea is suitable. The thoughts need not bear an obvious relationship |
| W1:43.10 | suitable. The thoughts need not bear an obvious relationship to the | idea, but they should not be in opposition to it. |
| W1:43.11 | to be aware of thoughts which are clearly out of accord with today's | idea, or if you seem to be unable to think of anything, open your |
| W1:43.12 | In applying today's | idea in the shorter practice periods, the form may vary according to |
| W1:43.15 | The | idea should also be applied throughout the day to various situations |
| W1:43.17 | subject presents itself to your awareness, merely repeat the | idea in its original form. |
| W1:43.18 | to allow long periods of time to slip by without remembering today's | idea and thus remembering your function. |
| W1:44.1 | Today we are continuing with the | idea for yesterday, adding another dimension to it. You cannot see in |
| W1:44.7 | Begin the practice period by repeating today's | idea with your eyes open and close them slowly, repeating the idea |

| W1:44.9 | If resistance rises in any form, pause long enough to repeat today's | idea, keeping your eyes closed unless you are aware of fear. In that |
| W1:44.11 | Throughout the day, repeat the | idea often with eyes open or closed as seems better to you at the |
| W1:45.1 | Today's | idea holds the key to what your real thoughts are. They are nothing |
| W1:45.4 | will take the same general form that we used in applying yesterday's | idea. We will attempt to leave the unreal and seek for the real. We |
| W1:45.6 | Begin the exercises for today by repeating the | idea to yourself, closing your eyes as you do so. Spend a fairly |
| W1:45.6 | period in thinking a few relevant thoughts of your own, keeping the | idea in mind as you do so. After you have added some four or five |
| W1:45.6 | you have added some four or five thoughts of your own, repeat the | idea again, and tell yourself gently: |
| W1:45.12 | In using the shorter form for applying today's | idea, try to remember how important it is to you to understand the |
| W1:45.12 | mind that thinks with God. Take a minute or two as you repeat the | idea throughout the day to appreciate your mind's holiness. Stand |
| W1:46.3 | as possible. Begin the longer practice periods by repeating today's | idea to yourself, as usual. Close your eyes as you do so and spend a |
| W1:46.6 | in the best position to forgive yourself. After you have applied the | idea for today to all those who have come to mind, tell yourself, |
| W1:46.10 | The form of the applications may vary considerably, but the central | idea should not be lost sight of. You might say, for example: |
| W1:46.12 | The practice period should end, however, with a repetition of today's | idea as originally stated. |
| W1:46.13 | The shorter applications may consist either of a repetition of the | idea for today in the original or in a related form as you prefer. Be |
| W1:47.4 | are urged. Close your eyes and begin as usual by repeating today's | idea. Then spend a minute or two in searching for situations in your |
| W1:47.9 | Repeat the | idea for today often. Use it as your answer to any disturbance. |
| W1:48.1 | The | idea for today simply states a fact. It is not a fact to those who |
| W1:48.2 | be very short, very simple, and very frequent. Merely repeat the | idea as often as possible. You can use it with your eyes open at any |
| W1:48.2 | a minute or so whenever possible to close your eyes and repeat the | idea slowly to yourself several times. It is particularly important |
| W1:48.2 | several times. It is particularly important that you use the | idea immediately should anything disturb your peace of mind. |
| W1:49.5 | Do not forget to repeat today's | idea very frequently. Do so with your eyes open when necessary, but |
| W1:49.5 | when possible. And be sure that you sit quietly and repeat the | idea for today slowly whenever you can, closing your eyes on the |
| W1:50.4 | For ten minutes twice today, morning and evening, let the | idea for today sink deep into your consciousness. Repeat it, think |
| W1:R1.2 | two minutes or more to each practice period, thinking about the | idea and the related comments. Do this as often as possible during |
| W1:R1.3 | It is not necessary to cover the comments that follow each | idea literally or thoroughly in the practice periods. Rather, try |
| W1:R1.3 | the central point and think about it as part of your review of the | idea to which it relates. |
| W1:R1.4 | After you have read the | idea and the related comments, the exercises should be done with your |
| W1:54.4 | have no private thoughts, I cannot see a private world. Even the mad | idea of separation had to be shared before it could form the basis of |
| W1:61.2 | To the ego, today's | idea is the epitome of self-glorification. But the ego does not |
| W1:61.3 | True humility requires that you accept today's | idea because it is God's Voice Which tells you it is true. This is a |
| W1:61.4 | You will want to think about this | idea as often as possible today. It is the perfect answer to all |
| W1:61.7 | permits. Let a few related thoughts come to you, and repeat the | idea to yourself if your mind wanders away from the central thought. |
| W1:61.9 | Today's | idea goes far beyond the ego's petty views of what you are and what |
| W1:62.4 | Let us be glad to begin and end this day by practicing today's | idea and to use it as frequently as possible throughout the day. It |
| W1:62.8 | that they are true. Should your attention wander, repeat the | idea and add: |
| W1:63.5 | an opportunity. No chance should be lost for reinforcing today's | idea. |
| W1:64.1 | Today's | idea is merely another way of saying, “Let me not wander into |
| W1:64.10 | In the frequent applications of today's | idea to be made throughout the day, devote several minutes to |
| W1:65.1 | The | idea for today reaffirms your commitment to salvation. It also |
| W1:65.2 | period in which you try to understand and accept what today's | idea really means. It offers you escape from all your perceived |
| W1:65.5 | For this longer practice period, begin by reviewing the | idea for today. Then close your eyes, repeat the idea to yourself |
| W1:65.5 | by reviewing the idea for today. Then close your eyes, repeat the | idea to yourself once again, and watch your mind carefully to catch |
| W1:65.6 | make no attempt to concentrate only on thoughts related to the | idea for today. Rather, try to uncover each thought that arises which |
| W1:65.11 | Finally, repeat the | idea for today once more and devote the rest of the practice period |
| W1:65.12 | undertaken at least once an hour, use this form in applying today's | idea: |
| W1:65.14 | you see now that will be totally changed when you accept today's | idea completely. |
| W1:66.13 | Today's | idea is another giant stride in the perception of the same as the |
| W1:67.1 | Today's | idea is a complete and accurate statement of what you are. This is |
| W1:67.6 | You may find it necessary to repeat the | idea for today from time to time to replace distracting thoughts. You |
| W1:67.7 | It will be particularly helpful today to practice the | idea for today as often as you can. You need to hear the truth about |
| W1:68.11 | short practice periods should include a quick application of today's | idea in this form, whenever any thought of grievance arises against |
| W1:68.13 | In addition, repeat the | idea several times an hour in this form: |
| W1:69.9 | want to do as often as possible in view of the importance of today's | idea to you and your happiness, remind yourself that your grievances |
| W1:70.1 | more than some form of the basic temptation not to believe the | idea for today. Salvation seems to come from anywhere except from |
| W1:70.2 | The seeming “cost” of accepting today's | idea is this: it means that nothing outside yourself can save you; |
| W1:70.3 | Today's | idea places you in charge of the universe, where you belong because |
| W1:70.6 | to be sick, because it makes us unhappy. Therefore, in accepting the | idea for today, we are in agreement with God. He does not want us to |
| W1:70.8 | Begin these practice periods by repeating the | idea for today, adding a statement signifying your recognition that |
| W1:71.7 | How can you escape all this? Very simply. The | idea for today is the answer. Only God's plan for salvation will |
| W1:71.9 | the two longer practice periods for today by thinking about today's | idea, and realizing that it contains two parts, each making equal |
| W1:71.13 | hold grievances today, and respond to them with this form of today's | idea: |
| W1:71.15 | Try to remember the | idea for today some six or seven times an hour. There could be no |
| W1:73.17 | times an hour. It is most important, however, to apply today's | idea in this form immediately you are tempted to hold a grievance of |
| W1:74.1 | The | idea for today can be regarded as the central thought toward which |
| W1:74.1 | that conflict is possible has gone. Peace has replaced the strange | idea that you are torn by conflicting goals. As an expression of the |
| W1:74.2 | There is great peace in today's | idea. And the exercises for today are directed towards finding it. |
| W1:74.2 | And the exercises for today are directed towards finding it. The | idea itself is wholly true. Therefore it cannot give rise to |
| W1:74.12 | If you feel yourself slipping off into withdrawal, quickly repeat the | idea for today and try again. Do this as often as necessary. There is |
| W1:76.2 | could, you would forever seek where it is not and never find it. The | idea for today tells you once again how simple is salvation. Look for |
| W1:76.12 | Heaven which His laws keep limitless forever. We will repeat today's | idea until we have listened and understood there are no laws but |
| W1:80.6 | often today that your problems have been solved. Repeat the | idea with deep conviction as frequently as possible. And be |
| W1:80.6 | as possible. And be particularly sure to remember to apply the | idea for today to any specific problem that may arise. Say quickly: |
| W1:R2.2 | about 15 minutes for each of them, and begin by thinking about the | idea and the comments which are included in the assignments. Devote |
| W1:R2.5 | the shorter practice periods as well, using the original form of the | idea for general application and a more specific form when needed. |
| W1:81.3 | Some specific forms for applying today's | idea when specific difficulties seem to arise might be: |

| W1:89.5 | [78] Let miracles replace all grievances. By this | idea do I unite my will with the Holy Spirit's and perceive them as |
| W1:89.5 | my will with the Holy Spirit's and perceive them as one. By this | idea do I accept my release from hell. By this idea do I express my |

| W1:90.6 | These forms of the | idea will be useful for specific applications: |
| W1:91.1 | This needs repeating and frequent repeating. It is a central | idea in your new thought system and the perception which it produces. |
| W1:91.2 | is unknown to you. And the seeming reality of the darkness makes the | idea of light meaningless. |
| W1:91.14 | are seen in light. Also, be sure to meet temptation with today's | idea. This form would be helpful for this special purpose: |
| W1:92.1 | The | idea for today is an extension of the previous one. You do not think |
| W1:92.1 | of strength and darkness in terms of weakness. That is because your | idea of what seeing means is tied up with the body and its eyes and |
| W1:92.2 | understood the nature of thought, you could but laugh at this insane | idea. It is as if you thought you held the match that lights the sun |
| W1:92.11 | meet again in hope and trust. Let us repeat as often as we can the | idea for today and recognize that we are being introduced to sight |
| W1:93.17 | you can do much today to bring the conviction to your mind that the | idea for the day is true indeed. |
| W1:94.1 | Today we continue with the one | idea which brings complete salvation; the one statement which makes |
| W1:94.1 | that this world ever held are wiped away forever by this one | idea. Here is salvation accomplished. Here is sanity restored. |
| W1:95.1 | Today's | idea accurately describes you as God created you. You are one within |
| W1:95.4 | of the first five minutes of every waking hour for practicing the | idea for the day has special advantages at the stage of learning in |
| W1:95.5 | of time. You often fail to remember the short applications of the | idea for the day, and you have not yet formed the habit of using it |
| W1:95.9 | and our failures to follow the instructions for practicing the day's | idea. |
| W1:95.20 | Throughout the day do not forget your goal. Repeat today's | idea as frequently as possible and understand each time you do so, |
| W1:95.20 | To everyone you meet today be sure to give the promise of today's | idea and tell him this: |
| W1:97.1 | Today's | idea identifies you with your One Self. It accepts no split identity, |
| W1:98.7 | five minutes. He will give the words you use in practicing today's | idea the deep conviction and the certainty you lack. His words will |
| W1:98.7 | His words will join with yours and make each repetition of today's | idea a total dedication, made in faith as perfect and as sure as His |
| W1:98.12 | the next five minutes you will spend again with Him. Repeat today's | idea while you wait for the glad time to come to you again. Repeat it |
| W1:99.9 | You who will yet work miracles, be sure you practice well the | idea for today. Try to perceive the strength in what you say, for |
| W1:100.8 | Begin the exercises with the thought today's | idea contains. Then realize your part is to be happy. Only this is |
| W1:100.11 | Do not forget the | idea for today between your longer practice periods. It is your Self |
| W1:101.1 | Today we will continue with the theme of happiness. This is a key | idea in understanding what salvation means. You still believe it asks |
| W1:101.6 | thought as often as we can today because it is the basis for today's | idea. God's Will for you is perfect happiness because there is no |
| W1:101.10 | escape from madness. You are set on freedom's road, and now today's | idea brings wings to speed you on and hope to go still faster to the |
| W1:104.1 | Today's | idea continues with the thought that joy and peace are not but idle |
| W1:108.1 | Vision depends upon today's | idea. The light is in it, for it reconciles all seeming opposites. |
| W1:110.1 | We will repeat today's | idea from time to time. For this one thought would be enough to save |
| W1:110.2 | evil is not real, and misery and death do not exist. Today's | idea is therefore all you need to let complete correction heal your |
| W1:110.5 | The healing power of today's | idea is limitless. It is the birthplace of all miracles, the great |
| W1:110.5 | of the truth to the awareness of the world. Practice today's | idea with gratitude. This is the truth that comes to set you free. |
| W1:121.6 | It is not inherent in a mind which cannot sin. As sin was an | idea you taught yourself, forgiveness must be learned by you as well, |
| W1:126.1 | Today's | idea, completely alien to the ego and the thinking of the world, is |
| W1:126.2 | Let us consider what you do believe in place of this | idea. It seems to you that other people are apart from you and able |
| W1:126.8 | if you only catch a tiny glimpse of the release which lies in the | idea we practice for today, this is a day of glory for the world. |
| W1:126.9 | Give 15 minutes twice today to the attempt to understand today's | idea. It is the thought by which forgiveness takes its proper place |
| W1:126.10 | where thoughts are changed and false beliefs laid by. Repeat today's | idea, and ask for help in understanding what it really means. Be |
| W1:129.1 | from the one we practiced yesterday. You cannot stop with the | idea the world is worthless, for unless you see that there is |
| W1:131.4 | world and every worldly thought and one which comes to you from an | idea relinquished yet remembered, old yet new—an echo of a heritage |
| W1:132.9 | Today's | idea is true because the world does not exist. And if it is indeed |
| W1:132.10 | be stressed again, for it contains the firm foundation for today's | idea. You are as God created you. There is no place where you can |
| W1:132.14 | and thus destroy His wholeness. Can a world which comes from this | idea be real? Can it be anywhere? Deny illusions, but accept the |
| W1:134.3 | illusion true. This twisted viewpoint but reflects the hold that the | idea of sin retains as yet upon your mind as you regard yourself. |
| W1:135.16 | and previous beliefs. It overlooks the present, for it rests on the | idea the past has taught enough to let the mind direct its future |
| W1:137.1 | Today's | idea remains the central thought on which salvation rests. For |
| W1:139.6 | Atonement remedies the strange | idea that it is possible to doubt yourself and be unsure of what you |
| W1:R4.7 | with time devoted to the preparation of your mind to learn what each | idea you will review that day can offer you in freedom and in peace. |
| W1:R4.10 | God has given it as it was given to you through His Voice. Let each | idea that you review that day give you the gift which He has laid in |
| W1:153.4 | the frenzy and intensity of which you can conceive that you have no | idea of all the devastation it has wrought. You are its slave. You |
| W1:156.1 | Today's | idea but states the simple truth that makes the thought of sin |
| W1:157.4 | what you are asking must be given you. Nothing is needed but today's | idea to light your mind and let it rest in still anticipation and in |
| W1:158.7 | for the Son whom God created. It beholds a light beyond the body, an | idea beyond what can be touched, a purity undimmed by errors, pitiful |
| W1:160.2 | There is a stranger in our midst who comes from an | idea so foreign to the truth he speaks a different language, looks |
| W1:161.1 | Here is salvation in the simple words in which we practice today's | idea. Here is the answer to temptation which can never fail to |
| W1:161.16 | Today's | idea is your safe escape from anger and from fear. Be sure you use it |
| W1:163.7 | The | idea of the death of God is so preposterous that even the insane have |
| W1:167.2 | is life's opposite. You call it death. Yet we have learned that the | idea of death takes many forms. It is the one idea which underlies |
| W1:167.2 | have learned that the idea of death takes many forms. It is the one | idea which underlies all feelings that are not supremely happy. It is |
| W1:167.3 | You think that death is of the body. Yet it is but an | idea, irrelevant to what is seen as physical. A thought is in the |
| W1:167.3 | leave not their source. The emphasis this course has placed on that | idea is due to its centrality in our attempts to change your mind |
| W1:169.5 | Oneness is simply the | idea God is. And in His Being, He encompasses all things. No mind |
| W1:170.2 | How thoroughly insane is the | idea that to defend from fear is to attack! For here is fear begot |
| W1:170.5 | on its imagined way, you will perceive the premises on which the | idea stands. First, it is obvious ideas must leave their source. For |
| W1:183.7 | No other words we use except at the beginning, when we say today's | idea but once. And then God's Name becomes our only thought, our only |
| W1:183.9 | His Name. Sit silently, and let His Name become the all-encompassing | idea which holds your mind completely. Let all thoughts be still |
| W1:186.2 | Let us not fight our function. We did not establish it. It is not our | idea. The means are given us by which it will be perfectly |
| W1:186.3 | Today's | idea may seem quite sobering until you see its meaning. All it says |
| W1:187.3 | see the miracles it brings to everyone you look upon. Herein is the | idea of giving clarified and given meaning. Now you can perceive that |
| W1:187.6 | but to yourself. Who understands what giving means must laugh at the | idea of sacrifice. Nor can he fail to recognize the many forms which |
| W1:187.6 | starvation and at death. He recognizes sacrifice remains the one | idea that stands behind them all, and in his gentle laughter are they |
| W1:187.7 | to all the forms that suffering appears to take. And sacrifice is an | idea so mad that sanity dismisses it at once. |
| W1:191.5 | But let today's | idea find a place among your thoughts, and you have risen far above |
| W1:194.1 | Today's | idea takes another step toward quick salvation, and a giant stride it |
| W1:194.2 | Accept today's | idea, and you have passed all anxiety, all pits of hell, all |
| W1:194.2 | of sin, and devastation brought about by guilt. Accept today's | idea, and you have released the world from all imprisonment by |
| W1:196.2 | and with all things held in its sure protection, can be found in the | idea we practice for today. It may in fact appear to be a sign that |
| W1:196.3 | you are a body to be crucified. And you will see within today's | idea the light of resurrection, looking past all thoughts of |
| W1:196.4 | Today's | idea is one step we take in leading us from bondage to the state of |
| W1:196.9 | Salvation's song can certainly be heard in the | idea we practice for today. If it can but be you you crucify, you did |
| W1:196.12 | between you and the holy peace of God. How kind and merciful is the | idea we practice! Give it welcome, as you should, for it is your |
| W1:199.3 | essential for your progress in this course that you accept today's | idea and hold it very dear. Be not concerned that to the ego it is |
| W1:199.5 | Cherish today's | idea, and practice it today and every day. Make it a part of every |
| W1:199.5 | you as well. We sound the call of freedom round the world with this | idea. And would you be exempt from the acceptance of the gifts you |
| W1:R6.1 | For this review, we take but one | idea each day, and practice it as often as is possible. Besides the |
| W1:R6.1 | and the hourly remembrances we make throughout the day, use the | idea as often as you can between them. Each of these ideas alone |
| W1:R6.7 | which you denied be given up in sure and quick exchange for the | idea we practice for the day. |
| W1:R6.10 | And then repeat the | idea for the day, and let it take the place of what you thought. |
| W1:R6.10 | of what you thought. Beyond such special applications of each day's | idea, we will add but few formal expressions for specific thoughts to |
| W1:210.1 | [190] I choose the joy of God instead of pain. Pain is my own | idea. It is not a thought of God, but one I thought apart from Him |
| W2:WF.1 | in this view are all your sins forgiven. What is sin except a false | idea about God's Son? Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and |
| W2:300.1 | before they are possessed, or even grasped. Yet this is also the | idea that lets no false perception keep us in its hold nor represent |
| W2:325.1 | What I see reflects a process in my mind which starts with my | idea of what I want. From there, the mind makes up an image of the |
| M:2.2 | apart from time. So is all reality, being of Him. The instant the | idea of separation entered the Mind of God's Son, in that same |
| M:2.3 | and long ago passed by is looked upon as a new thought, a fresh | idea, a different approach. Because your will is free, you can accept |

| M:5.7 | With this idea is pain forever gone. But with this | idea goes also all confusion about creation. Does not this follow of |
| M:5.7 | generalize and transform the world. The transfer value of one true | idea has no end nor limit. The final outcome of this lesson is the |
| M:5.8 | point. The body tells them what to do, and they obey. They have no | idea how insane this concept is. If they even suspected it, they |

| M:24.5 | this much is not required of the beginner. He need merely accept the | idea that what he knows is not necessarily all there is to learn. His |
| M:27.3 | is the symbol of the fear of God. His love is blotted out in the | idea, which holds it from awareness like a shield held to obscure the |
| M:27.6 | “And the last to be overcome will be death.” Of course! Without the | idea of death, there is no world. All dreams will end with this one. |

| Tx:5.33 | of God. The idea of the Holy Spirit shares the property of other | ideas, because it follows the laws of the Universe of which it is a |
| Tx:5.44 | You must have noticed how often I have used your own | ideas to help you. You have learned to be a loving, wise, and very |
| Tx:5.49 | can make you really free. You have carried the burden of the | ideas you did not share and which were therefore too weak to |
| Tx:5.53 | all by example. Teaching is therapy, because it means the sharing of | ideas and the awareness that to share them is to strengthen them. The |
| Tx:5.56 | Ideas do not leave the mind which thought them to have a separate | |

| Tx:5.57 | full power of creation cannot be expressed as long as any of God's | ideas withhold it from the Kingdom. The joint will of all the Sonship |

| Tx:10.80 | what it specifically advocates. This is not a course in the play of | ideas, but in their practical application. Nothing could be more |
| Tx:12.24 | threat you think you could experience. For hell and oblivion are | ideas which you made up, and you are bent on demonstrating their |
| Tx:13.21 | Insane | ideas have no real relationships, for that is why they are insane. No |

| Tx:15.72 | To the ego, the mind is private, and only the body can be shared. | Ideas are basically of no concern, except as they draw the body of |

| Tx:25.10 | all learning to transfer illusions to the truth, taking all false | ideas of what you are and leading you beyond them to the truth that |

| Tx:26.49 | not their source, and their effects but seem to be apart from them. | Ideas are of the mind. What is projected out and seems to be external |
| Tx:26.59 | the mind where the belief arose. Here is the firm conviction that | ideas can leave their source made real and meaningful. And from this |
| Tx:26.60 | He created you as part of Him, and this must still be true because | ideas leave not their source. Such is creation's law—that each idea |
| Tx:26.60 | to be deceived but cannot make it be what it is not. And to believe | ideas can leave their source is to invite illusions to be true, |
| Tx:27.29 | opposition would weaken it, and weakened power is a contradiction in | ideas. Weak strength is meaningless, and power used to weaken is |

| Tx:28.7 | here. They will surprise you with their loveliness. The ancient new | ideas they bring will be the happy consequences of a cause so ancient |
| Tx:30.1 | and out of pain and fear. They are not new to you, but they are more | ideas than rules of thought to you as yet. So now we need to practice |
| Tx:30.39 | because what shares in all creation cannot be content with small | ideas and little things. |
| Tx:30.49 | They were made that this might be forgotten. You attack but false | ideas and never truthful ones. All idols are the false ideas you made |
| Tx:30.49 | but false ideas and never truthful ones. All idols are the false | ideas you made to fill the gap you think arose between yourself and |
| Tx:30.86 | everything as it belongs to you. In single purpose is the end of all | ideas of sacrifice, which must assume a different purpose for the one |
| Tx:31.12 | things mean and what their purpose is. Let us remember not our own | ideas of what the world is for. We do not know. Let every image held |

| W1:I.5 | the ideas the exercises contain. Whatever your reactions to the | ideas may be, use them. Nothing more than this is required. |
| W1:7.8 | Old | ideas about time are very difficult to change because everything you |
| W1:7.8 | believe is rooted in time and depends on your not learning these new | ideas about it. Yet that is precisely why you need new ideas about |
| W1:7.8 | these new ideas about it. Yet that is precisely why you need new | ideas about time. This first time idea is not really so strange as it |

| W1:28.3 | you are making a commitment to withdraw your preconceived | ideas about the table and open your mind to what it is and what it is |
| W1:28.5 | gain vision from just that table if you could withdraw all your own | ideas from it and look upon it with a completely open mind. It has |
| W1:28.5 | of infinite value, full of happiness and hope. Hidden under all your | ideas about it is its real purpose, the purpose it shares with all |
| W1:39.1 | its opposite? Like the text for which this workbook was written, the | ideas which are used for the exercises are very simple, very clear, |
| W1:45.9 | Under all the senseless thoughts and mad | ideas with which you have cluttered up your mind are the thoughts |

| W1:R1.1 | the fiftieth. There will be a few short comments after each of the | ideas, which you should consider in your review. In the practice |
| W1:R1.2 | Begin the day by reading the five | ideas, with the comments included. Thereafter, it is not necessary to |
| W1:R1.2 | Do this as often as possible during the day. If any one of the five | ideas appeals to you more than the others, concentrate on that one. |
| W1:R1.6 | You will note that for review purposes the | ideas are not always given in quite their original form of statement. |

| W1:R2.1 | review. We will begin where our last review left off and cover two | ideas each day. The earlier part of each day will be devoted to one |
| W1:R2.1 | day. The earlier part of each day will be devoted to one of these | ideas, and the latter part of the day to the other. We will have one |

| W1:97.4 | stands still; the miracle in which a minute spent in using these | ideas becomes a time which has no length and which has no end. Give, |
| W1:98.13 | and lay down all earthly tasks, all little thoughts and limited | ideas, and spend a happy time again with Him. Tell Him once more that |
| W1:107.4 | pain is over, for there is no room for transitory thoughts and dead | ideas to linger in your mind. Truth occupies your mind completely, |
| W1:R3.1 | Our third review begins today. We will review two of the last 20 | ideas each day until we have reviewed them all. We will observe a |
| W1:R3.5 | prefer, to considering the thoughts that are assigned. Read over the | ideas and comments which are written first in each day's exercise. |
| W1:R3.6 | Place the | ideas within your mind and let it use them as it chooses. Give it |
| W1:R3.10 | between your longer practice periods. Attempt to give your daily two | ideas a brief but serious review each hour. Use one on the hour and |
| W1:R3.13 | hour as well. Forget them not. This second chance with each of these | ideas will bring such large advances that we come from these reviews |
| W1:131.10 | foolish thoughts like these behind today, and turn your mind to true | ideas instead. |
| W1:131.11 | world to replace the foolish images that we held dear, with true | ideas arising in the place of thoughts which have no meaning, no |
| W1:132.2 | for to change your mind means you have changed the source of all | ideas you think or ever thought or yet will think. |

| W1:132.20 | Throughout the day, increase the freedom sent through your | ideas to all the world, and say whenever you are tempted to deny the |
| W1:133.1 | we will do today. We will not speak of lofty, world-encompassing | ideas but dwell instead on benefits to you. |
| W1:133.2 | you the little that you have. It does not try to substitute utopian | ideas for satisfactions which the world contains. |
| W1:134.17 | that you are using his “offenses” but to save the world from all | ideas of sin. Briefly consider all the evil things you thought of |
| W1:135.17 | a future quite unlike the past without a continuity of any old | ideas and sick beliefs. Anticipation plays no part at all, for |
| W1:137.1 | salvation rests. For healing is the opposite of all the world's | ideas which dwell on sickness and on separate states. Sickness is a |
| W1:137.5 | at all, healing but offers restitution for imagined states and false | ideas which dreams embroider into pictures of the truth. |
| W1:138.8 | with terror and anxiety so strong that it will not relinquish its | ideas about its own protection. It must be saved from salvation, |
| W1:R4.10 | After your preparation, merely read each of the two | ideas assigned to you to be reviewed that day. Then close your eyes |
| W1:R4.11 | the day began and spend a quiet moment with it. Then repeat the two | ideas you practice for the day unhurriedly, with time enough to see |
| W1:R4.12 | thus the keeping of His Word. And as you give your mind to the | ideas for the day again before you sleep, His gratitude surrounds you |
| W1:151.13 | remove the elements of dreams, and give them back to you as clean | ideas that do not contradict the Will of God. |
| W1:156.1 | surely from the basic thought so often mentioned in the text— | ideas leave not their source. If this be true, how can you be apart |
| W1:167.3 | it. But its origin is where it must be changed if change occurs. | Ideas leave not their source. The emphasis this course has placed on |
| W1:167.4 | you did not make, and you can never change. It is the fixed belief | ideas can leave their source and take on qualities the source does |
| W1:167.5 | Death cannot come from life. | Ideas remain united to their source. They can extend all that their |
| W1:170.5 | perceive the premises on which the idea stands. First, it is obvious | ideas must leave their source. For it is you who make attack and must |
| W1:182.8 | still an instant, when the world recedes from you, when valueless | ideas cease to have value in your restless mind, then will you hear |
| W1:187.2 | that make them. And you do not lack for proof that when you give | ideas away, you strengthen them in your own mind. Perhaps the form in |
| W1:187.3 | Ideas must first belong to you before you give them. If you are to | |
| W1:189.7 | false or good or bad, of every thought it judges worthy and all the | ideas of which it is ashamed. Hold onto nothing. Do not bring with |
| W1:190.4 | Peace to such foolishness! The time has come to laugh at such insane | ideas. There is no need to think of them as savage crimes or secret |
| W1:R6.1 | day, use the idea as often as you can between them. Each of these | ideas alone would be sufficient for salvation, if it were learned |

| Tx:7.87 | because the ego is your belief. The ego is therefore a confusion in | identification which never had a consistent model and never developed |

| Tx:7.105 | that you are the Will of God. His Will is not an idle wish, and your | identification with His Will is not optional, since it is what you |

| Tx:1.62 | the question “response to what?” becomes crucial. Since stimuli are | identified through perception, you first perceive the stimulus and |

| W1:191.2 | world? What have you done that this is what you see? Deny your own | Identity, and this is what remains. You look on chaos and proclaim it |
| W1:191.3 | Deny your own | Identity, and you will not escape the madness which induced this |
| W1:191.3 | thought which mocks creation and which laughs at God. Deny your own | Identity, and you assail the universe alone, without a friend, a tiny |
| W1:191.3 | particle of dust against the legions of your enemies. Deny your own | Identity and look on evil, sin, and death. And watch despair snatch |
| W1:191.4 | Yet what is it except a game you play in which | identity can be denied? You are as God created you. All else but this |
| W1:191.5 | you will return and set it free. For he who can accept his true | Identity is truly saved. And his salvation is the gift he gives to |

| W2:352.1 | hear Your Voice and find Your peace today. For I would love my own | Identity and find in Him the memory of You. |

| W2:355.1 | an instant more to be at peace forever. It is You I choose and my | Identity along with You. Your Son would be Himself and know You as |
| M:7.6 | recognize him as part of the self and thus represents a confusion in | identity. Conflict about what you are has entered your mind, and you |
| M:13.2 | such things, the mind associates itself with the body, obscuring its | identity and losing sight of what it really is. |
| M:13.3 | could this be possible. For self-condemnation is a decision about | identity, and no one doubts what he believes he is. He can doubt all |
| M:26.2 | retaining no trace of worldly limits and remembering their own | Identity perfectly. These might be called the teachers of teachers, |
idle (43) | ||
| Tx:2.89 | lack of awareness of thought-power. For example, you say, “Just an | idle thought,” and mean that the thought has no effect. You also |
| Tx:7.105 | We said before that you are the Will of God. His Will is not an | idle wish, and your identification with His Will is not optional, |
| Tx:10.44 | itself. The real conflict you experience, then, is between the ego's | idle wishes and the Will of God, which you share. Can this be a real |
| Tx:13.23 | there. You wanted not salvation in the past. Would you impose your | idle wishes on the present and hope to find salvation now? |
| Tx:20.10 | I have given unless you share it. The Holy Spirit's vision is no | idle gift, no plaything to be tossed about a while and laid aside. |
| Tx:20.73 | Judgment is but a toy, a whim, the senseless means to play the | idle game of death in your imagination. But vision sets all things |

| Tx:27.69 | up and down according to a senseless plot conceived within the | idle dreaming of the world. |
| Tx:27.73 | No other cause it has, nor ever will. Nothing more fearful than an | idle dream has terrified God's Son and made him think that he has |
| Tx:27.85 | tears, but hear Him say, “My brother, Holy Son of God, behold your | idle dream in which this could occur,” and you will leave the holy |
| Tx:30.55 | what you never were and seek no more to substitute the strength of | idle wishes for the Will of God. |
| W1:16.2 | gives rise to the perception of a whole world can hardly be called | idle. Every thought you have contributes to truth or to illusion; |
| W1:16.3 | In addition to never being | idle, salvation requires that you recognize that every thought you |
| W1:41.5 | anything. Try instead to get a sense of turning inward, past all the | idle thoughts of the world. Try to enter very deeply into your own |
| W1:45.11 | gained, you should be able to remind yourself that this is no | idle game but an exercise in holiness and an attempt to reach the |
| W1:50.4 | to flow over you like a blanket of protection and surety. Let no | idle and foolish thoughts enter to disturb the holy mind of the Son |
| W1:63.2 | forget your function and leave the Son of God in hell. This is no | idle request that is being asked of you. You are asked to accept |
| W1:65.8 | to continue a minute or so longer, attempting to catch a few of the | idle thoughts which escaped your attention before, but do not strain |
| W1:70.13 | holding your hand and leading you. And I assure you this will be no | idle fantasy. |
| W1:73.1 | the will you share with God. This is not the same as the ego's | idle wishes, out of which darkness and nothingness arise. The will |
| W1:73.1 | you share with God has all the power of creation in it. The ego's | idle wishes are unshared and therefore have no power at all. Its |
| W1:73.1 | are unshared and therefore have no power at all. Its wishes are not | idle in the sense that they can make a world of illusions in which |

| W1:86.2 | it is. I was mistaken about what it is. I will undertake no more | idle seeking. Only God's plan for salvation will work. And I will |
| W1:92.9 | offer you the light and guide your seeing, so you do not dwell on | idle shadows that the body's eyes provide for self-deception. |
| W1:93.3 | you think, but from a very different reference point from which such | idle thoughts are meaningless. These thoughts are not according to |

| W1:140.5 | Peace be to you who have been cured in God and not in | idle dreams. For cure must come from holiness, and holiness cannot be |

| W1:151.11 | represent the truth and disregard those aspects which reflect but | idle dreams. And He will reinterpret all you see and all occurrences, |
| W1:153.4 | madness in a form so grim that hope of sanity seems but to be an | idle dream, beyond the possible. The sense of threat the world |
| W1:185.7 | really mean the words we say. We want the peace of God. This is no | idle wish. These words do not request another dream be given us. They |

| W2:309.2 | The step I take today, my Father, is my sure release from | idle dreams of sin. Your altar stands serene and undefiled. It is the |
idly (8) | ||
| Tx:16.20 | given you. For the ideas are mighty forces to be used and not held | idly by. They have already proved their power sufficiently for you to |
| Tx:24.1 | Him be Himself. No more His Son. They are. And what illusion that | idly seems to drift between them has the power to defeat what is |
| Tx:26.60 | adds to its abundance, never takes away. This is as true of what is | idly wished as what is truly willed, because the mind can wish to be |
| Tx:27.31 | as vacant, and the time devoted to its seeing be perceived as | idly spent, a time unoccupied. |
| Tx:27.80 | Thus are you not the dreamer but the dream. And so you wander | idly in and out of places and events which it contrives. That this is |

idol (58) | ||
| Tx:7.49 | you can see in two ways. One way shows you an image, or better, an | idol which you may worship out of fear but which you will never love. |
| Tx:9.77 | with him? To believe a Son of God is sick is to worship the same | idol he does. God created love, not idolatry. All forms of idolatry |
| Tx:9.78 | A sick god must be an | idol, made in the image of what its maker thinks he is. And that is |
| Tx:9.78 | self-sufficient, very vicious, and very vulnerable. Is this the | idol you would worship? Is this the image you would be vigilant to |
| Tx:9.78 | of yours. And you are willing to keep it hidden and to protect this | idol, which you think will save you from the dangers which the idol |
| Tx:9.78 | this idol, which you think will save you from the dangers which the | idol itself stands for, but which do not exist. |
| Tx:16.55 | In the name of your completion, you do not want this. For every | idol which you raise to place before Him stands before you in place |
| Tx:20.55 | The body is the ego's | idol; the belief in sin made flesh and then projected outward. This |
| Tx:24.27 | its defender. You would protect what God created not. And yet this | idol that seems to give you power has taken it away. For you have |
| Tx:24.27 | unforgiven and yourself in sin beside him, both in misery before the | idol that can save you not. |
| Tx:29.43 | outside yourself. For it will fail, and you will weep each time an | idol falls. Heaven cannot be found where it is not, and there can be |
| Tx:29.43 | where it is not, and there can be no peace excepting there. Each | idol that you worship when God calls will never answer in His place. |
| Tx:29.45 | him, all excepting one; for he will die and does not understand the | idol that he seeks is but his death. Its form appears to be outside |
| Tx:29.45 | and prove that he is victor over him. This is the purpose every | idol has, for this the role that is assigned to it, and this the role |
| Tx:29.47 | seek? No sadness and no suffering proclaims a message other than an | idol found that represents a parody of life which in its lifelessness |
| Tx:29.48 | of peace. God dwells within, and your completion lies in Him. No | idol takes His place. Look not to idols. Do not seek outside |
| Tx:29.50 | fear of loss of your reality. But you have made of your reality an | idol which you must protect against the light of truth. And all the |
| Tx:29.50 | light of truth. And all the world becomes the means by which this | idol can be saved. Salvation thus appears to threaten life and offer |
| Tx:29.51 | and only life exists. The sacrifice of death is nothing lost. An | idol cannot take the place of God. Let Him remind you of His love for |
| Tx:29.52 | What is an | idol? Do you think you know? For idols are unrecognized as such and |
| Tx:29.52 | you do not know what they are for and why they have been made. An | idol is an image of your brother which you would value more than what |
| Tx:29.54 | An | idol is a false impression or a false belief—some form of |
| Tx:29.54 | which constitutes a gap between the Christ and what you see. An | idol is a wish made tangible and given form and thus perceived as |
| Tx:29.56 | What is an | idol? Nothing! It must be believed before it seems to come to life |
| Tx:29.56 | not need belief to be itself, for it has been created, so it is. An | idol is established by belief, and when it is withdrawn, the idol |
| Tx:29.56 | is. An idol is established by belief, and when it is withdrawn, the | idol “dies.” |
| Tx:29.58 | Where is an | idol? Nowhere! Can there be a gap in what is infinite, a place where |
| Tx:29.58 | alcove separated off from what is endless, has no place to be. An | idol is beyond where God has set all things forever and has left no |
| Tx:29.58 | room for anything to be except His Will. Nothing and nowhere must an | idol be while God is everything and everywhere. |
| Tx:29.59 | What purpose has an | idol, then? What is it for? This is the only question which has many |
| Tx:29.59 | or even more affliction and more pain. But more of something is an | idol for. And when one fails, another takes its place with hope of |
| Tx:29.59 | something else. Be not deceived by forms the “something” takes. An | idol is a means for getting more. And it is this that is against |
| Tx:29.60 | And thus is every living thing a part of you, as of Himself. No | idol can establish you as more than God. But you will never be |
| Tx:29.63 | are part of what they have been made to save you from. Thus does an | idol keep the dream alive and terrible, for who could wish for one |
| Tx:29.63 | wish for one unless he were in terror and despair? And this the | idol represents, and so its worship is the worship of despair and |
| Tx:29.69 | of help, a calm assurance Heaven goes with you—be sure you made an | idol and believe it will betray you. For beneath your hope that it |
| Tx:30.39 | take the place of all the love in the divinity of God the Son? What | idol can make two of what is one? And can the limitless be limited? |
| Tx:30.39 | of what is one? And can the limitless be limited? You do not want an | idol. It is not your will to have one. It will not bestow on you the |
| Tx:30.39 | the understanding of its purpose. So you see your will within the | idol, thus reducing it to a specific form. Yet this could never be |
| Tx:30.40 | Behind the search for every | idol lies the yearning for completion. Wholeness has no form because |
| Tx:30.40 | achieve completion in a form you like. This is the purpose of an | idol—that you will not look beyond it to the source of the belief |
| Tx:30.41 | It never is the | idol that you want. But what you think it offers you, you want indeed |
| Tx:30.41 | and no separate thing the power to complete the Son of God. What | idol can be called upon to give the Son of God what he already has? |
| Tx:30.42 | to what is not in him, he would not be as God created him. What | idol can he need to be himself? For can he give a part of him away? |
| Tx:30.48 | two realities, but one. Nor can you be aware of more than one. An | idol or the Thought God holds of you is your reality. Forget not, |
| Tx:30.54 | one very simple thing—you do not want whatever you believe an | idol gives. For thus the Son of God declares that he is free of |
| Tx:30.63 | the real world. Perhaps they still look back and think they see an | idol that they want. Yet has their path been surely set away from |
| Tx:30.66 | Do not look back except in honesty. And when an | idol tempts you, think of this: |
| Tx:30.67 | There never was a time an | idol brought you anything except the “gift” of guilt. Not one was |
| Tx:30.68 | Be merciful unto your brother, then. And do not choose an | idol thoughtlessly, remembering that he will pay the cost as well as |
| Tx:30.76 | and will remain afraid to look within and find escape from every | idol there. Salvation rests on faith there cannot be some forms of |
| Tx:30.81 | been given no effects. But what you see as having power to make an | idol of the Son of God you will not pardon. For he has become to you |
| Tx:31.44 | is made by you. It bears no likeness to yourself at all. It is an | idol, made to take the place of your reality as Son of God. The |
| Tx:31.46 | sights, for it is here the world's “reality” is set to see to it the | idol lasts. |

| Tx:29.55 | This world of | idols is a veil across the face of Christ because its purpose is to |
| Tx:29.57 | the infinite, a time transcending the eternal. Here the world of | idols has been set by the idea this power and place and time are |
| Tx:29.59 | the one of whom the question has been asked. The world believes in | idols. No one comes unless he worshiped them and still attempts to |
| Tx:29.59 | might offer him a gift reality does not contain. Each worshiper of | idols harbors hope his special deities will give him more than other |
| Tx:29.60 | and who be given less? In Heaven would the Son of God but laugh if | idols could intrude upon his peace. It is for him the Holy Spirit |

| Tx:29.61 | The slave of | idols is a willing slave. For willing he must be to let himself bow |

| Tx:29.62 | he is part of it. Judge not, for he who judges will have need of | idols which will hold the judgment off from resting on himself. Nor |
| Tx:29.62 | Judge not, because you make yourself a part of evil dreams where | idols are your “true” identity and your salvation from the judgment |
| Tx:29.63 | All figures in the dream are | idols made to save you from the dream. Yet they are part of what they |
| Tx:29.63 | judgment, you attack and are condemned and wish to be the slave of | idols which are interposed between your judgment and the penalty it |
| Tx:29.64 | There can be no salvation in the dream as you are dreaming it. For | idols must be part of it to save you from what you believe you have |

| Tx:29.67 | a dream. Except the figures have been changed. They are not seen as | idols which betray. It is a dream in which no one is used to |

| Tx:30.29 | decisions by yourself whatever you decide. For they are made with | idols or with God. And you ask help of Christ or anti-Christ, and |
| Tx:30.38 | Idols are quite specific. But your will is universal, being | |
| Tx:30.38 | has no form nor is content for its expression in the terms of form. | Idols are limits. They are the belief that there are forms which will |
| Tx:30.38 | satisfy because it is your will that everything be yours. Decide for | idols, and you ask for loss. Decide for truth, and everything is |
| Tx:30.42 | of God's Son. He has no need to seek for it at all. Beyond all | idols stands his holy will to be but what he is. For more than whole |

| Tx:30.47 | Beyond all | idols is the Thought God holds of you. Completely unaffected by the |
| Tx:30.47 | reality kept safe, completely unaware of all the world that worships | idols and that knows not God. In perfect sureness of its |
| Tx:30.48 | the Thought God holds of you is your reality. Forget not, then, that | idols must keep hidden what you are, not from the Mind of God, but |
| Tx:30.49 | The truth could never be attacked. And this you knew when you made | idols. They were made that this might be forgotten. You attack but |

| Tx:30.53 | like to itself? Look calmly at its toys and understand that they are | idols which but dance to vain desires. Give them not your worship, |
| Tx:30.53 | in attack. God's Son needs no defense against his dreams. His | idols do not threaten him at all. His one mistake is that he thinks |
| Tx:30.54 | an idol gives. For thus the Son of God declares that he is free of | idols. And thus is he free. |
| Tx:30.57 | aim. The value of forgiveness is perceived and takes the place of | idols which are sought no longer, for their “gifts” are not held |
| Tx:30.58 | lost. The folly of pursuing guilt as goal is fully recognized. And | idols are not wanted there, for guilt is understood as the sole cause |
| Tx:30.61 | real world is a state in which the mind has learned how easily do | idols go when they are still perceived, but wanted not. How willingly |

| Tx:30.75 | you prefer to keep some idols and are not prepared as yet to let all | idols go. And thus you think that some appearances are real and not |

| Tx:16.50 | he has asked for hell, and so he will not interfere with the ego's | illusion of Heaven, which it offered him to interfere with Heaven. |
| Tx:16.50 | if all illusions are of fear, and they can be of nothing else, the | illusion of Heaven is nothing more than an “attractive” form of fear |

| Tx:16.56 | making yourself unable to make the simple choice between truth and | illusion, God and fantasy. Remember this and you will have no |
| Tx:16.57 | to this course and follow it is but the choice between truth and | illusion. For here is truth separated from illusion and not confused |
| Tx:16.57 | choice between truth and illusion. For here is truth separated from | illusion and not confused with it at all. |
| Tx:16.64 | of reference is built around the special relationship. Without this | illusion, there can be no meaning you would still seek here. |
| Tx:16.65 | rather than despair in this: You could no longer find even the | illusion of love in any special relationship here. For you are no |
| Tx:16.67 | Now no one need suffer, for you have come too far to yield to the | illusion of the beauty and holiness of guilt. Only the wholly insane |
| Tx:16.67 | What guilt has wrought is ugly, fearful, and very dangerous. See no | illusion of truth and beauty there. And be you thankful that there is |
| Tx:16.71 | already gone. It must be, therefore, that you are maintaining the | illusion that it has not gone because you think it serves some |
| Tx:16.74 | hatred and the savagery break briefly through into awareness, the | illusion of love is not profoundly shaken. Yet the one thing which |
| Tx:16.76 | difference in all respects between your experience of truth and | illusion. Yet you will not attempt this long. In the holy instant, |
| Tx:16.79 | Remember that you always choose between truth and | illusion—between the real Atonement which would heal and the ego's |
| Tx:17.1 | that this is so, for dreams are what they are because of their | illusion of reality. Only in waking is the full release from them, |
| Tx:17.4 | As long as you would have it so, so long will the | illusion of order of difficulty in miracles remain with you. For you |
| Tx:17.5 | means from the perspective of illusions? Truth has no meaning in | illusion. The frame of reference for its meaning must be itself. When |
| Tx:17.24 | of reference to which the present is referred for meaning is an | illusion of the past in which those elements which fit the purpose of |
| Tx:17.25 | It is still up to you to choose to be willing to join with truth or | illusion. But remember that to choose one is to let the other go. |
| Tx:17.25 | of ugliness, the real world or the world of guilt and fear, truth or | illusion, freedom or slavery—it is all the same. For you can never |
| Tx:17.63 | the goal of truth would bring. For fantasy solutions bring but the | illusion of experience, and the illusion of peace is not the |
| Tx:17.63 | For fantasy solutions bring but the illusion of experience, and the | illusion of peace is not the condition in which the truth can enter. |
| Tx:17.68 | upon it calmly, but do not use it. Faithlessness is the servant of | illusion and wholly faithful to its master. Use it and it will carry |
| Tx:17.68 | with the goal, but with the value of the goal to you. Accept not the | illusion of peace it offers, but look upon its offering and recognize |
| Tx:17.68 | of peace it offers, but look upon its offering and recognize it is | illusion. |
| Tx:17.69 | The goal of | illusion is as closely tied to faithlessness as faith to truth. If |
| Tx:18.4 | It has taken many forms because it was the substitution of | illusion for truth, of fragmentation for wholeness. It has become so |
| Tx:18.4 | one and still is what it was. That one error, which brought truth to | illusion, infinity to time, and life to death, was all you ever made. |
| Tx:18.17 | escape its origin. Anger and fear pervade it, and in an instant, the | illusion of satisfaction is invaded by the illusion of terror. For |
| Tx:18.17 | and in an instant, the illusion of satisfaction is invaded by the | illusion of terror. For the dream of your ability to control reality |
| Tx:18.18 | out for you, for if you did, the guilt would not be theirs, and the | illusion of satisfaction would be gone. In dreams these features are |
| Tx:18.24 | You who have spent your lives in bringing truth to | illusion, reality to fantasy, have walked the way of dreams. For you |
| Tx:18.26 | illusions in which you have surrounded it. When you retreat to the | illusion, your fear increases, for there is little doubt that what |
| Tx:18.41 | was. If you already understood the difference between truth and | illusion, the Atonement would have no meaning. The holy instant, your |
| Tx:18.56 | the place you set aside to house your hate is not a prison but an | illusion of yourself. The body is a limit imposed on the universal |
| Tx:18.59 | as separate. What really happens is that you have given up the | illusion of a limited awareness and lost your fear of union. The love |
| Tx:18.73 | how alone and frightened is this little thought, this infinitesimal | illusion, holding itself apart against the universe. The sun becomes |
| Tx:18.89 | as you believe that guilt is real. For the reality of guilt is the | illusion which seems to make it heavy and opaque, impenetrable, and a |
| Tx:18.90 | solid wall before the sun. Its impenetrable appearance is wholly an | illusion. It gives way softly to the mountain tops which rise above |
| Tx:18.90 | fall nor hold a feather. [Nothing can rest upon it, for it is but an | illusion of a foundation.] Try but to touch it and it disappears; |
| Tx:19.3 | separation has occurred. The body thus becomes the instrument of | illusion, acting accordingly; seeing what is not there, hearing what |
| Tx:19.5 | to truth. Partial dedication is impossible. Truth is the absence of | illusion; illusion the absence of truth. |
| Tx:19.5 | Partial dedication is impossible. Truth is the absence of illusion; | illusion the absence of truth. |
| Tx:19.7 | and when they are seen together, all attempts to keep both truth and | illusion in the mind, where both must be, are recognized as |
| Tx:19.7 | in the mind, where both must be, are recognized as dedication to | illusion and given up when brought to truth and seen as totally |
| Tx:19.8 | Truth and | illusion have no connection. This will remain forever true, however |
| Tx:19.22 | in such a world could everything be upside-down. This is the strange | illusion which makes the clouds of guilt seem heavy and impenetrable. |
| Tx:19.45 | the light in which illusions end. Every miracle is but the end of an | illusion. Such was the journey; such its ending. And in the goal of |
| Tx:19.47 | This feather of a wish, this tiny | illusion, this microscopic remnant of the belief in sin, is all that |
| Tx:19.71 | therefore painful. It will share the pain of all illusions, and the | illusion of pleasure will be the same as pain. |
| Tx:19.72 | serving its master whose attraction to guilt maintains the whole | illusion of its existence. This, then, is the attraction of pain. |
| Tx:20.11 | him, your vision has become the greatest power for the undoing of | illusion that God Himself could give. For what God gave the Holy |
| Tx:20.28 | seeming source. Thus would He keep you free of them. Being without | illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit merely gives everything to |
| Tx:20.52 | time was born and bodies made to house the mad idea and give it the | illusion of reality. And so it seemed to have a home that held |
| Tx:20.62 | of bodies. But the purpose here is sin. It cannot be attained but in | illusion, and so the illusion of a brother as a body is quite in |
| Tx:20.62 | here is sin. It cannot be attained but in illusion, and so the | illusion of a brother as a body is quite in keeping with the purpose |
| Tx:20.65 | to reality. Your holy brother, sight of whom is your release, is no | illusion. Attempt to see him not in darkness, for your imaginings |
| Tx:21.84 | or happiness in changing form that shifts with time and place, is an | illusion which has no meaning. Happiness must be constant because it |
| Tx:22.11 | itself from an unholy relationship and yet more ancient than the old | illusion that it has replaced, is like a baby now in its rebirth. Yet |
| Tx:22.14 | the recognition that the “something else” you thought was you is an | illusion. And truth came instantly to show you where your Self must |
| Tx:22.16 | one seems to be the way to lose the misery the other brings. Every | illusion carries pain and suffering in the dark folds of the heavy |
| Tx:22.19 | can exist is to confuse what is the same with what is different. One | illusion cherished and defended against the truth makes all truth |
| Tx:22.21 | believes it is not so. Now must you choose between yourself and an | illusion of yourself. Not both, but one. There is no point in trying |
| Tx:22.23 | of Heaven you can take and weave into illusions. Nor is there one | illusion you can enter Heaven with. A savior cannot be a judge, nor |
| Tx:22.24 | Let us look closer at the whole | illusion that what you made has power to enslave its maker. This is |
| Tx:22.24 | enemies. And here we see again another form of the same fundamental | illusion we have seen many times before. Only if it were possible the |
| Tx:22.27 | Its will has no exceptions, and what it wills is true. Every | illusion brought to its forgiveness is gently overlooked and |
| Tx:22.35 | Reason will tell you that, if form is not reality, it must be an | illusion and is not there to see. And if you see it, you must be |
| Tx:22.44 | slip through its nothingness. It is no solid wall. And only an | illusion stands between you and the holy Self you share. |
| Tx:22.49 | in truth. What, then, must happen when they come together? Can the | illusion of immovability be long defended from what is quietly passed |
| Tx:22.50 | to be defensive about anything, you have identified yourself with an | illusion. And therefore feel that you are weak because you are alone. |
| Tx:22.50 | to stand between you that makes it look impenetrable and defends the | illusion of its immovability. |
| Tx:22.56 | in time can long remain in minds that serve the timeless. And no | illusion can disturb the peace of a relationship which has become the |
| Tx:22.57 | could block your sight, preventing you from seeing past it? And what | illusion could there be you will not recognize as a mistake—a |
| Tx:23.3 | for their awareness of the truth releases everything from the | illusion of harmfulness. And what seemed harmful now stands shining |
| Tx:23.9 | a mistake—an error in your self-appraisal. The ego joins with an | illusion of yourself you share with it. And yet illusions cannot |
| Tx:23.11 | by itself, and you have not forgotten what you are. Only a strange | illusion of yourself, a wish to triumph over what you are, remembers |
| Tx:23.13 | what you know when you have learned you cannot be in conflict. One | illusion about yourself can battle with another, yet the war of two |
| Tx:23.15 | the conqueror to be the truer, the more real, and vanquisher of the | illusion that was less real, made an illusion by defeat. Thus, |
| Tx:23.15 | real, and vanquisher of the illusion that was less real, made an | illusion by defeat. Thus, conflict is the choice between illusions, |
| Tx:23.15 | and despised. Here will the Father never be remembered. Yet no | illusion can invade His home and drive Him out of what He loves |
| Tx:23.18 | Illusion meets illusion; truth, itself. The meeting of illusions | |
| Tx:23.18 | Illusion meets | illusion; truth, itself. The meeting of illusions leads to war. |
| Tx:23.36 | it and pamper it, and make it live? And can you be content with an | illusion that you are living? |
| Tx:23.37 | life, there life must be. In any state apart from Heaven, life is | illusion. At best, it seems like life; at worst, like death. Yet both |
| Tx:23.46 | safety. Not one tree left standing still will shelter you. Not one | illusion of protection stands against the faith in murder. Here |
| Tx:23.47 | Yet He remains the only place of safety. In Him is no attack, and no | illusion in any form stalks Heaven. Heaven is wholly true. No |
| Tx:23.47 | is not love is murder. What is not loving must be an attack. Every | illusion is an assault on truth, and every one does violence to the |
| Tx:23.52 | up. For you have chosen to remain where He would have you, and no | illusion can attack the peace of God together with His Son. |
| Tx:24.1 | illusions to let Him be Himself. No more His Son. They are. And what | illusion that idly seems to drift between them has the power to |
| Tx:24.7 | is the great dictator of the wrong decisions. Here is the grand | illusion of what you are and what your brother is. And here is what |
| Tx:24.7 | do. For what your brother must become to keep your specialness is an | illusion. He who is “worse” than you must be attacked so that your |
| Tx:24.16 | it would show them that the specialness they think they see is an | illusion. What would they see instead? |
| Tx:24.25 | joy of any kind? Through this despair you travel now, yet it is but | illusion of despair. The death of specialness is not your death but |
| Tx:24.25 | death but your awaking into life eternal. You but emerge from an | illusion of what you are to the acceptance of yourself as God created |
| Tx:24.26 | why it is impossible but partly to forgive. No one who clings to one | illusion can see himself as sinless, for he holds one error to |
| Tx:25.37 | meaningless without the goal of sin. Attack and sin are bound as one | illusion, each the cause and aim and justifier of the other. Each is |
| Tx:25.52 | deeply valued here were true, then every Thought God ever had is an | illusion. And if but one Thought of His is true, then all beliefs the |
| Tx:26.5 | Those who would see the witnesses to truth instead of to | illusion merely ask that they might see a purpose in the world that |
| Tx:26.21 | final judgment upon this world. It is the judgment of the truth upon | illusion, of knowledge on perception—it has no meaning and does not |
| Tx:26.23 | perception of alternatives for choice. That there is choice is an | illusion. Yet within this one lies the undoing of every illusion, not |
| Tx:26.23 | choice is an illusion. Yet within this one lies the undoing of every | illusion, not excepting this. |
| Tx:26.24 | conflict here. No sacrifice is possible in the relinquishment of an | illusion recognized as such. Where all reality has been withdrawn |
| Tx:26.33 | an instant, long ago before its unreality gave way to truth. Not one | illusion still remains unanswered in your mind. Uncertainty was |
| Tx:26.41 | are real and have existence which can be perceived. This terrible | illusion was denied in but the time it took for God to give His |
| Tx:26.41 | was denied in but the time it took for God to give His answer to | illusion for all time and every circumstance. And then it was no |
| Tx:26.44 | has the power to hurt, but just because you have denied it is but an | illusion and made it real. And it is real to you. It is not nothing |
| Tx:26.44 | in sacrifice and death has come to you. For no one can make one | illusion real and still escape the rest. For who can choose to keep |
| Tx:26.45 | Lead not your little lives in solitude with one | illusion as your only friend. This is no friendship worthy of God's |
| Tx:26.45 | a better Friend in Whom all power in earth and Heaven rests. The one | illusion that you think is friend obscures His grace and majesty from |
| Tx:26.45 | is no other friend. What God appointed has no substitute, for what | illusion can replace the truth? |
| Tx:26.46 | realized its emptiness has left yours empty and unoccupied? Make no | illusion friend, for if you do, it can but take the place of Him whom |
| Tx:26.50 | yet can be seen as upside-down. And this must be corrected where the | illusion of reversal lies. |
| Tx:26.51 | It is impossible that one | illusion be less amenable to truth than are the rest. But it is |
| Tx:26.51 | and less willingly offered to truth for healing and for help. No | illusion has any truth in it. Yet it appears some are more true than |
| Tx:26.68 | that you might be a little separate. For time and space are one | illusion which takes different forms. If it has been projected beyond |
| Tx:26.75 | Yet this | illusion has a cause which, though untrue, must be already in your |
| Tx:26.75 | a cause which, though untrue, must be already in your mind. And this | illusion is but one effect which it engenders and one form in which |
| Tx:27.81 | world as real. He would have seen at once that these ideas are one | illusion, too ridiculous for anything but to be laughed away. How |
| Tx:28.38 | the dream and join [with] one but let the other go. The dream is but | illusion in the mind. And with the mind you would unite, but never |
| Tx:28.38 | you think that you are but a dream. And what is real and what is but | illusion in yourself you do not know and cannot tell apart. |
| Tx:28.39 | Like you, your brother thinks he is a dream. Share not in his | illusion of himself, for your identity depends on his reality. Think |
| Tx:28.49 | of what you hate. There is no compromise. You are your Self or an | illusion. What can be between illusion and the truth? A middle ground |
| Tx:28.49 | no compromise. You are your Self or an illusion. What can be between | illusion and the truth? A middle ground where you can be a thing that |
| Tx:28.51 | can be? Let not your eyes behold a dream, your ears bear witness to | illusion. They were made to look upon a world that is not there, to |
| Tx:29.12 | the function of retaining sin and pain. For pain and sin are one | illusion, as are hate and fear, attack and guilt but one. Where they |
| Tx:29.31 | this whole world has been forgotten, where no memory of sin and of | illusion lingers still. There is a place in you which time has left, |
| Tx:29.34 | They hold no sword, for they have left their hold on every vain | illusion of the world. And being empty, they received instead a |
| Tx:29.44 | No one who comes here but must still have hope, some lingering | illusion, or some dream that there is something outside of himself |
| Tx:29.45 | The lingering | illusion will impel him to seek out a thousand idols and to seek |
| Tx:30.53 | power that can have no real effects at all? What could it be but an | illusion, making things appear like to itself? Look calmly at its |
| Tx:30.76 | are true. If one appearance must remain apart from healing, one | illusion must be part of truth. And you could not escape all guilt, |
| Tx:31.15 | What you would choose between is not a choice and gives but the | illusion it is free, for it will have one outcome either way. Thus is |
| Tx:31.31 | want to hold in guilt your chosen enemies nor keep in chains to the | illusion of a changing love the ones you think are friends. |
| Tx:31.34 | Real choice is no | illusion. But the world has none to offer. All its roads but lead to |
| Tx:31.40 | cannot lie in choosing different forms of what is still the same | illusion and the same mistake. All choices in the world depend on |
| Tx:31.76 | that there is a space between you and your brother, kept apart by an | illusion of yourself which holds him off from you and you away from |
| Tx:31.76 | from him. The sword of judgment is the weapon which you give to the | illusion of yourself that it may fight to keep the space that holds |
| Tx:31.97 | ending at the place where it began. No trace of it remains. Not one | illusion is accorded faith, and not one spot of darkness still |
| W1:16.2 | be called idle. Every thought you have contributes to truth or to | illusion; either it extends the truth or it multiplies illusions. You |
| W1:49.2 | It is really the only part there is. The other part is a wild | illusion, frantic and distraught, but without reality of any kind. |
| W1:51.3 | this and only this that I see. This is not vision. It is merely an | illusion of reality, because my judgments have been made quite apart |
| W1:52.2 | because I have given them reality and thus regard reality as an | illusion. Nothing in God's creation is affected in any way by this |
| W1:53.4 | and no hope. But such a world is not real. I have given it the | illusion of reality, and have suffered from my belief in it. Now I |
| W1:55.2 | the witnesses to the truth in me, rather than those that show me an | illusion of myself. |
| W1:59.3 | my own eyes to see today. Let me be willing to exchange my pitiful | illusion of seeing for the vision that is given by God. Christ's |
| W1:66.10 | of the ego. Does the ego really have gifts to give, being itself an | illusion and offering only the illusion of gifts? |
| W1:66.10 | have gifts to give, being itself an illusion and offering only the | illusion of gifts? |
| W1:66.11 | practice period today. Think also about the many forms which the | illusion of your function has taken in your mind and the many ways in |
| W1:71.4 | work. This ensures that the fruitless search will continue, for the | illusion persists that, although this hope has always failed, there |
| W1:73.9 | to remember. No idle wishes can detain us nor deceive us with an | illusion of strength. Today let your will be done. And end forever |
| W1:83.7 | wholly unaffected by this. Nothing, including this, can justify the | illusion of happiness apart from my function. |
| W1:84.4 | Let me not see an | illusion of myself in this. As I look on this, let me remember my |
| W1:88.2 | not there to choose. That is why I always choose between truth and | illusion, between what is there and what is not. The light has come. |
| W1:91.11 | limited, but unlimited. I am not doubtful, but certain. I am not an | illusion, but a reality. I cannot see in darkness, but in light. |
| W1:93.15 | If a situation arises that seems to be disturbing, quickly dispel the | illusion of fear by repeating these thoughts again. Should you be |
| W1:96.2 | The fact that truth and | illusion cannot be reconciled, no matter how you try, what means you |
| W1:99.2 | salvation from. Salvation is the borderland between the truth and | illusion. It reflects the truth because it is the means by which you |
| W1:101.2 | If sin is real then happiness must be | illusion, for they cannot both be true. The sinful warrant only death |
| W1:107.9 | that has been born of truth. The shaky and unsteady footsteps of | illusion is not our approach today. We are as certain of success as |
| W1:127.8 | truth within your mind wherever you give up a false belief, a dark | illusion of your own reality and what love means. He will shine |
| W1:131.7 | Why wait for Heaven? It is here today. Time is the great | illusion; it is past or in the future. Yet this cannot be, if it is |
| W1:133.8 | they are there. Who seeks to take away has been deceived by the | illusion loss can offer gain. Yet loss must offer loss and nothing |
| W1:134.3 | the truth in an unfounded effort to deceive yourself by making an | illusion true. This twisted viewpoint but reflects the hold that the |
| W1:134.19 | yourself. When this occurs, allow your mind to see through this | illusion as you tell yourself: |
| W1:136.1 | When this is seen, healing is automatic. It dispels this meaningless | illusion by the same approach that carries all of them to truth and |
| W1:136.14 | It is this fact which demonstrates that time is an | illusion. For it lets you think what God has given you is not the |
| W1:140.1 | it thinks the mind exists. Its forms of healing thus must substitute | illusion for illusion. One belief in sickness takes another form, and |
| W1:140.1 | mind exists. Its forms of healing thus must substitute illusion for | illusion. One belief in sickness takes another form, and so the |
| W1:140.6 | fail to heal and heal forever. It is not a thought which judges an | illusion by its size, its seeming gravity, or anything that is |
| W1:140.6 | the form it takes. It merely focuses on what it is and knows that no | illusion can be real. |
| W1:140.7 | is really changed. There is no change but this. For how can one | illusion differ from another but in attributes that have no |
| W1:140.14 | cover us with soft protection and with peace so deep that no | illusion can disturb our minds nor offer proof to us that it is real. |
| W1:155.2 | The world is an | illusion. Those who choose to come to it are seeking for a place |
| W1:155.2 | it lead the way. What other choice is really theirs to make? To let | illusion walk ahead of truth is madness, but to let illusion sink |
| W1:155.2 | to make? To let illusion walk ahead of truth is madness, but to let | illusion sink behind the truth and let the truth stand forth as what |
| W1:155.3 | This is the simple choice we make today. The mad | illusion will remain awhile in evidence for those to look upon who |
| W1:155.3 | a teacher who perceives their madness, but who still can look beyond | illusion to the simple truth in them. |
| W1:155.6 | Illusion still appears to cling to you that you may reach them. Yet | |
| W1:155.6 | you that you may reach them. Yet it has stepped back, and it is not | illusion that they hear you speak of nor illusion which you bring |
| W1:155.6 | stepped back, and it is not illusion that they hear you speak of nor | illusion which you bring their eyes to look on and their minds to |
| W1:155.6 | Now can the truth, which walks ahead of you, speak to them through | illusion, for the road leads past illusion now, while on the way you |
| W1:155.6 | of you, speak to them through illusion, for the road leads past | illusion now, while on the way you call to them that they may follow |
| W1:155.7 | death and set them on the way to happiness. Their suffering is but | illusion. Yet they need a guide to lead them out of it, for they |
| W1:155.7 | Yet they need a guide to lead them out of it, for they mistake | illusion for the truth. |
| W1:155.8 | truth, and let it go before you, lighting up the path of ransom from | illusion. It is not a ransom with a price. There is no cost, but only |
| W1:155.8 | It is not a ransom with a price. There is no cost, but only gain. | Illusion can but seem to hold in chains the holy Son of God. It is |
| W1:155.11 | holy Son of God will make no journeys. There will be no wish to be | illusion rather than the truth. And we step forth toward this as we |
| W1:158.4 | Time is a trick—a sleight of hand, a vast | illusion in which figures come and go as if by magic. Yet there is a |
| W1:160.4 | and fear. They cannot coexist. If you are real, then fear must be | illusion. And if fear is real, then you do not exist at all. |
| W1:162.2 | is no dream these words will not dispel, no thought of sin, and no | illusion that the dream contains that will not fade away before their |
| W1:163.8 | well. God made not death. Whatever form it takes must therefore be | illusion. This the stand we take today. And it is given us to look |
| W1:165.1 | wills for you? And what could hide what cannot be concealed except | illusion? What could keep from you what you already have except your |
| W1:R5.12 | in your own. We practice but an ancient truth we knew before | illusion seemed to claim the world. And we remind the world that it |
| W1:182.2 | tears at all. Still others will maintain that what we speak of is | illusion, not to be considered more than but a dream. Yet who in |
| W1:184.6 | can be seen, as is anticipated. What denies that it is true is but | illusion, for it is the ultimate reality. To question it is madness; |
| W1:187.9 | them. Who could fear to look upon such lovely holiness? The great | illusion of the fear of God diminishes to nothingness before the |
| W1:190.7 | has no power to cause. As an effect, it cannot make effects. As an | illusion it is what you will. Your idle wishes represent its pains. |
| W1:190.10 | lesson which contains all of salvation's power. It is this: pain is | illusion; joy reality. Pain is but sleep; joy is awakening. Pain is |
| W1:192.2 | And who would pardon Heaven? Yet on earth you need the means to let | illusion go. Creation merely waits for your return to be |
| W1:198.1 | Injury is impossible. And yet | illusion makes illusion. If you can condemn, you can be injured. For |

| Tx:18.88 | the whole foundation on which the world is based. Here are all the | illusions, all the twisted thoughts, all the insane attacks, the |
| Tx:19.4 | overlook our earlier statement that faithlessness leads straight to | illusions. For faithlessness is the perception of a brother as a |
| Tx:19.4 | faithlessness has thus opposed the Holy Spirit's purpose and brought | illusions centered on the body to stand between you. And the body |
| Tx:19.5 | separate; faith would unite and heal.] Faithlessness would interpose | illusions between the Son of God and his Creator; faith would remove |
| Tx:19.5 | that seem to rise between them. Faithlessness is wholly dedicated to | illusions; faith wholly to truth. Partial dedication is impossible. |
| Tx:19.8 | will remain forever true, however much you seek to connect them. But | illusions are always connected, as is truth. Each is united, a |
| Tx:19.29 | see many things the mind corrects, and you respond, not to the eyes' | illusions, but to the mind's corrections. |
| Tx:19.45 | the journey's end. For Heaven knows you well, as you know Heaven. No | illusions stand between you now. Look not upon the little wall of |
| Tx:19.45 | the sun? No more can you be kept by shadows from the light in which | illusions end. Every miracle is but the end of an illusion. Such was |
| Tx:19.45 | its ending. And in the goal of truth which you accepted must all | illusions end. |
| Tx:19.64 | You have paid very dearly for your | illusions, and nothing you have paid for brought you peace. Are you |
| Tx:19.67 | Forgive me your | illusions and release me from punishment for what I have not done. So |
| Tx:19.71 | the body to do is therefore painful. It will share the pain of all | illusions, and the illusion of pleasure will be the same as pain. |

| Tx:20.11 | You have the vision now to look past all | illusions. It has been given you to see no thorns, no strangers, and |
| Tx:20.11 | The fear of God is nothing to you now. Who is afraid to look upon | illusions, knowing his savior stands beside him? With him, your |
| Tx:20.12 | faith. And there will be no fear in us, for in our vision will be no | illusions—only a pathway to the open door of Heaven, the home we |
| Tx:20.13 | laid the lilies of forgiveness. Let him be to you the savior from | illusions, and look on him with the new vision that looks upon the |
| Tx:20.14 | them and beyond. Walk with him now rejoicing, for the savior from | illusions has come to greet you and lead you home with him. |

| Tx:20.63 | you hold about him are not held up to his reality. Here are | illusions and reality kept separated. Here are illusions never |
| Tx:20.63 | his reality. Here are illusions and reality kept separated. Here are | illusions never brought to truth and always hidden from it. And here |
| Tx:20.69 | joy. And place no value on your brother's body, which holds him to | illusions of what he is. It is his desire to see his sinlessness, as |
| Tx:21.32 | them the Holy Spirit leads you to the real world and away from all | illusions where your faith was laid. This is His direction, the only |
| Tx:21.33 | is not a lack of faith, but faith in nothing. Faith given to | illusions does not lack power, for by it does the Son of God believe |
| Tx:21.33 | Thus is he faithless to himself, but strong in faith in his | illusions about himself. For faith, perception, and belief you made |
| Tx:21.89 | whose will is powerful as His, a power that is not lost in your | illusions, think carefully why it should be you have not yet decided |
| Tx:22.14 | came instantly to show you where your Self must be. It is denial of | illusions that calls on truth, for to deny illusions is to recognize |
| Tx:22.14 | must be. It is denial of illusions that calls on truth, for to deny | illusions is to recognize that fear is meaningless. Into the holy |
| Tx:22.16 | The opposite of | illusions is not disillusionment, but truth. Only to the ego, to |
| Tx:22.16 | nothingness. Yet in these dark and heavy garments are those who seek | illusions covered and hidden from the joy of truth. |
| Tx:22.17 | Truth is the opposite of | illusions because it offers joy. What else but joy could be the |
| Tx:22.17 | one kind of misery and seek another is hardly an escape. To change | illusions is to make no change. The search for joy in misery is |
| Tx:22.18 | Illusions carry only guilt and suffering, sickness and death to their | |
| Tx:22.18 | can change with time. Yet if the change be real and not imagined, | illusions must give way to truth and not to other dreams that are but |
| Tx:22.19 | and defended against the truth makes all truth meaningless and all | illusions real. Such is the power of belief. It cannot compromise. |
| Tx:22.23 | There is no part of Heaven you can take and weave into | illusions. Nor is there one illusion you can enter Heaven with. A |
| Tx:22.25 | learn it is not true? Is it not welcome news to hear not one of the | illusions that you made replaced the truth? |
| Tx:22.33 | it. Theirs is indeed a strange perception, for they can see only | illusions, unable to look beyond the granite block of sin and |
| Tx:22.35 | what is not there must be distorted perception and must perceive | illusions as the truth. Could it then recognize the truth? |
| Tx:22.43 | opens the way to truth to more than you. Those who would let | illusions be lifted from their minds are this world's saviors, |
| Tx:22.45 | How does one overcome | illusions? Surely not by force or anger nor by opposing them in any |
| Tx:22.45 | nothing. What merely is needs no defense and offers none. Only | illusions need defense because of weakness. And how can it be |
| Tx:22.47 | Here can no weakness enter, for here is no attack and therefore no | illusions. Love rests in certainty. Only uncertainty can be |
| Tx:22.49 | between you and your awareness of your union! Be not deceived by the | illusions it presents of size and thickness, weight, solidity, and |
| Tx:22.49 | immovable as is a mountain. Yet within you there is a Force which no | illusions can resist. This body only seems to be immovable; this |
| Tx:22.50 | that you are weak because you are alone. This is the cost of all | illusions. Not one but rests on the belief that you are separate. Not |
| Tx:22.52 | of the body has no meaning, and so the mind is dedicated to serve | illusions. This is a situation so contradictory and so impossible |
| Tx:23.9 | ego joins with an illusion of yourself you share with it. And yet | illusions cannot join. They are the same, and they are nothing. Their |
| Tx:23.12 | The war against yourself is but the battle of two | illusions, struggling to make them different from each other in the |
| Tx:23.12 | Madness holds out no menace to reality and has no influence upon it. | Illusions cannot triumph over truth, nor can they threaten it in any |
| Tx:23.13 | For you must be as God created you. Truth does not fight against | illusions, nor do illusions fight against the truth. Illusions battle |
| Tx:23.13 | as God created you. Truth does not fight against illusions, nor do | illusions fight against the truth. Illusions battle only with |
| Tx:23.13 | fight against illusions, nor do illusions fight against the truth. | Illusions battle only with themselves. Being fragmented, they |
| Tx:23.13 | illusion about yourself can battle with another, yet the war of two | illusions is a state where nothing happens. There is no victor, and |
| Tx:23.14 | attack that is not part of you. And by attacking it, you make two | illusions of yourself in conflict with each other. And this occurs |
| Tx:23.15 | See how the conflict of | illusions disappears when it is brought to truth! For it seems real |
| Tx:23.15 | made an illusion by defeat. Thus, conflict is the choice between | illusions, one to be crowned as real, the other vanquished and |
| Tx:23.15 | peace because it is His home. And you who are beloved of Him are no | illusions, being as true and holy as Himself. |
| Tx:23.16 | where God has set him in serenity and peace and dwells with him. | Illusions have no place where love abides, protecting you from |
| Tx:23.17 | Holy One becomes a house of sin. And nothing is remembered except | illusions. Illusions can conflict because their forms are different. |
| Tx:23.17 | becomes a house of sin. And nothing is remembered except illusions. | Illusions can conflict because their forms are different. And they do |
| Tx:23.18 | Illusion meets illusion; truth, itself. The meeting of | illusions leads to war. Peace, looking on itself, extends itself. War |
| Tx:23.20 | This principle evolves from the belief there is a hierarchy of | illusions; some are more valuable and therefore true. Each one |
| Tx:23.21 | principle of miracles. For this establishes degrees of truth among | illusions, making it appear that some of them are harder to overcome |
| Tx:23.32 | now. Such a reversal, completely turned around, with madness sanity, | illusions true, attack a kindness, hatred love and murder |
| Tx:23.37 | in Heaven is not anywhere. Outside of Heaven, only the conflict of | illusions stands; senseless, impossible, and beyond all reason, and |
| Tx:23.37 | all reason, and yet perceived as an eternal barrier to Heaven. | Illusions are but forms. Their content is never true. |
| Tx:23.38 | The laws of chaos govern all | illusions. Their forms conflict, making it seem quite possible to |
| Tx:23.38 | no less certain in their witnessing or their results. Certain it is | illusions will bring fear because of the beliefs that they imply, not |
| Tx:24.1 | back the Will that holds the universe secure? God does not wait upon | illusions to let Him be Himself. No more His Son. They are. And what |
| Tx:24.7 | the body dear and worth preserving. Specialness must be defended. | Illusions can attack it, and they do. For what your brother must |
| Tx:24.9 | your relationship? And is not this the “enemy” that makes you both | illusions to each other? |
| Tx:24.11 | Those who are special must defend | illusions against the truth. For what is specialness but an attack |
| Tx:24.13 | of God. To value specialness is to esteem an alien will to which | illusions of yourself are dearer than the truth. |
| Tx:24.20 | in hate to kill each other and deny they are the same. Yet it is not | illusions which have reached this final obstacle that seems to make |
| Tx:24.20 | so real and so encompassing that nothing stands outside. Leave all | illusions of yourself outside this place to which you come in hope |
| Tx:24.23 | clings to murder as safety's weapon and the great defender of all | illusions from the “threat” of love. |
| Tx:24.24 | from all your brothers, safe from all intrusions of sanity upon | illusions, safe from God, and safe for conflict everlasting. Here are |
| Tx:24.26 | Forgiveness is the end of specialness. Only | illusions can be forgiven, and then they disappear. Forgiveness is |
| Tx:24.26 | forgiven, and then they disappear. Forgiveness is release from all | illusions, and that is why it is impossible but partly to forgive. No |
| Tx:24.28 | upsets your world and hurls it into chaos. Truth is not frail. | Illusions leave it perfectly unmoved [and undisturbed]. But |
| Tx:24.30 | the death of love itself? Yet they are powerless to make attack upon | illusions. They are not bodies; as One mind they wait for all |
| Tx:24.30 | upon illusions. They are not bodies; as One mind they wait for all | illusions to be brought to them and left behind. Salvation challenges |
| Tx:24.31 | of love and holiness, the perfect Father of a perfect Son, for your | illusions of your specialness. Here is the hell you chose to be your |
| Tx:24.37 | purpose does “endanger” specialness, but only in the sense that all | illusions are “threatened” by the truth. They will not stand before |
| Tx:24.40 | real, as surely as does will create. The power of a wish upholds | illusions as strongly as does love extend itself, except that one |
| Tx:24.44 | only Christ can lend you His while you have need of them. They are | illusions too, as much as yours. And yet, because they serve a |
| Tx:25.10 | in which it thinks it is. And It must use all learning to transfer | illusions to the truth, taking all false ideas of what you are and |
| Tx:25.25 | perfect battleground to wage its wars, the perfect shelter for the | illusions which it would make real. Not one but it upholds in its |
| Tx:25.78 | be kept in place. You mean that truth has greater value now than all | illusions. And you recognize that truth must be revealed to you |
| Tx:26.19 | are brought together—where conflicting values meet and all | illusions are laid down beside the truth where they are judged to be |
| Tx:26.24 | change of purpose in what once was specialness and now is union? All | illusions are but one. And in the recognition this is so lies the |
| Tx:26.39 | place. And now you are a part of resurrection, not of death. No past | illusions have the power to keep you in a place of death, a vault |
| Tx:26.44 | and through its perceived reality has entered all the world of sick | illusions. All belief in sin, in power of attack, in hurt and harm, |
| Tx:26.44 | and find the safety that the truth alone can give? Who can believe | illusions are the same and still maintain that even one is best? |
| Tx:26.48 | request is granted—not in truth but in the world of shadows and | illusions built on sin. The Son of God perceives what he would see, |
| Tx:26.51 | although this clearly makes no sense at all. All that a hierarchy of | illusions can show is preference, not reality. What relevance has |
| Tx:26.51 | preference, not reality. What relevance has preference to the truth? | Illusions are illusions and are false. Your preference gives them no |
| Tx:26.51 | reality. What relevance has preference to the truth? Illusions are | illusions and are false. Your preference gives them no reality. Not |
| Tx:26.53 | where no meaning is. And truth needs no defense to make it true. | Illusions have no witnesses and no effects. Who looks on them is but |
| Tx:26.60 | it is not. And to believe ideas can leave their source is to invite | illusions to be true, without success. For never will success be |
| Tx:26.62 | Illusions serve the purpose they were made to serve. And from their | |
| Tx:26.62 | they derive whatever meaning that they seem to have. God gave to all | illusions that were made another purpose that would justify a |
| Tx:27.6 | guilt. Your healing is his comfort and his health because it proves | illusions are not true. |
| Tx:27.12 | purpose, can be given it. You do not know its purpose. You but gave | illusions of a purpose to a thing you made to hide your function from |
| Tx:27.39 | The world asks but one question. It is this: “Of these | illusions, which of them are true? Which ones establish peace and |
| Tx:27.68 | Nor did you in any way request them for yourself. This is how all | illusions come about. The one who makes them does not see himself as |
| Tx:27.72 | your reality. The little gap you do not even see, the birthplace of | illusions and of fear, the time of terror and of ancient hate, the |
| Tx:27.75 | about instead of counting up the hurts he gave. Forgive him his | illusions and give thanks to him for all the helpfulness he gave. And |
| Tx:28.1 | has truly gone has no effects. Remembering a cause can but produce | illusions of its presence, not effects. |
| Tx:28.15 | the place of loss? What better way to close the little gap between | illusions and reality than to allow the memory of God to flow across |
| Tx:28.21 | dreamer of a dream is not awake but does not know he sleeps. He sees | illusions of himself as sick or well, depressed or happy, but without |
| Tx:28.22 | that its content is not true. This is a crucial step in dealing with | illusions. No one is afraid of them when he perceives he made them |
| Tx:28.30 | bridge the little gap that leads to Him. Fight not His coming with | illusions, for it is His coming that you want above all things that |
| Tx:28.37 | It means that you share not his wish to separate and let him turn | illusions on himself. Nor do you wish that they be turned instead on |
| Tx:28.37 | a figure in his dream of pain, as he in yours. So do you both become | illusions and without identity. You could be anyone or anything, |
| Tx:28.39 | depends on his reality. Think rather of him as a mind in which | illusions still persist, but as a mind which brother is to you. He is |
| Tx:28.40 | dreams of fear. Let him acknowledge who he is by not supporting his | illusions by your faith, for if you do, you will have faith in yours. |
| Tx:28.40 | And dreams of fear will haunt the little gap, inhabited but by | illusions which you have supported in each other's minds. |
| Tx:28.46 | on seeing in the gap what is not there. Your willingness to let | illusions go is all the Healer of God's Son requires. He will place |
| Tx:28.50 | You have conceived a little gap between | illusions and the truth to be the place where all your safety lies |
| Tx:28.52 | this. There is no gap which separates the truth from dreams and from | illusions. Truth has left no room for them in any place or time. For |
| Tx:29.22 | overlook your brother's dreams. So perfectly can you forgive him his | illusions, he becomes your savior from your dreams. And as you see |
| Tx:29.23 | to God's Son. Whom you forgive is given power to forgive you your | illusions. By your gift of freedom is it given unto you. Make way for |
| Tx:29.25 | Do you believe that truth can be but some | illusions? They are dreams because they are not true. Their equal |
| Tx:30.49 | satisfy, and thus you will not see you made it up. You always fight | illusions. For the truth behind them is so lovely and so still in |
| Tx:30.52 | the rules you set. It is His laws which guarantee your safety. All | illusions that you believe about yourself obey no laws. They seem to |
| Tx:30.53 | thus you prove that you have been deceived. Attack has power to make | illusions real. Yet what it makes is nothing. Who could be made |
| Tx:30.53 | His one mistake is that he thinks them real. What can the power of | illusions do? |
| Tx:30.56 | so little, not so much. It asks for nothing in reality. And even in | illusions it but asks forgiveness be the substitute for fear. Such is |
| Tx:30.56 | him no single thing that he could ever want. He is delivered from | illusions by his will and but restored to what he is. What could |
| Tx:30.74 | as merited will heal. It gives the miracle its strength to overlook | illusions. This is how you learn that you must be forgiven too. There |
| Tx:30.80 | acknowledgment that guilt has not succeeded by your wish to make | illusions real. And what is this except a simple statement of the |
| Tx:30.91 | What is temptation but a wish to make | illusions real? It does not seem to be the wish that no reality be |
| Tx:31.33 | keep. Why should this be? Because it is a place where choice among | illusions seems to be the only choice. And you are in control of |
| Tx:31.43 | fits it well. For this an image is that suits a world of shadows and | illusions. Here it walks at home, where what it sees is one with it. |
| W1:8.2 | it is not here. To think about it at all is therefore to think about | illusions. Very few minds have realized what is actually entailed in |
| W1:13.3 | not possess and crowd it with images that do not exist. To the ego, | illusions are safety devices, as they must also be to you who equate |
| W1:14.7 | These things are part of the world you see. Some of them are shared | illusions, and others are part of your personal hell. It does not |
| W1:15.1 | is image-making. It takes the place of seeing, replacing vision with | illusions. |
| W1:16.2 | truth or to illusion; either it extends the truth or it multiplies | illusions. You can indeed multiply nothing, but you will not extend |
| W1:35.5 | that the direction of your fantasies about yourself does not matter. | Illusions have no direction in reality. They are merely not true. |
| W1:46.1 | the great need of this world, but that is because it is a world of | illusions. Those who forgive are thus releasing themselves from |
| W1:46.1 | of illusions. Those who forgive are thus releasing themselves from | illusions, while those who withhold forgiveness are binding |
| W1:46.2 | forgiveness can truly be called salvation. It is the means by which | illusions disappear. |
| W1:48.1 | today simply states a fact. It is not a fact to those who believe in | illusions, but illusions are not facts. In truth there is nothing to |
| W1:48.1 | a fact. It is not a fact to those who believe in illusions, but | illusions are not facts. In truth there is nothing to fear. It is |
| W1:48.1 | this. But it is very difficult to recognize for those who want | illusions to be true. |
| W1:50.3 | Put not your faith in | illusions. They will fail you. Put all your faith in the Love of God |
| W1:52.2 | When I am upset, it is always because I have replaced reality with | illusions which I made up. The illusions are upsetting because I have |
| W1:52.2 | because I have replaced reality with illusions which I made up. The | illusions are upsetting because I have given them reality and thus |
| W1:55.5 | are my best interests would merely bind me closer to the world of | illusions. I am willing to follow the Guide God has given me to find |
| W1:55.6 | is for. To me, the purpose of everything is to prove that my | illusions about myself are real. It is for that purpose that I |
| W1:57.6 | shines forgiveness back at me. In this light, I begin to see what my | illusions about myself had kept hidden. I begin to understand the |
| W1:58.4 | in its power to save. What is there to be saved from except | illusions? And what are all illusions except false ideas about |
| W1:58.4 | What is there to be saved from except illusions? And what are all | illusions except false ideas about myself? My holiness undoes them |
| W1:59.2 | suffer when love and joy surround me through Him? Let me not cherish | illusions about myself. I am perfect because God goes with me |
| W1:59.4 | me to see. I cannot see anything else. Beyond His Will lie only | illusions. It is these I choose when I think I can see apart from |
| W1:61.4 | idea as often as possible today. It is the perfect answer to all | illusions and therefore to all temptation. It brings all the images |
| W1:62.2 | Illusions about yourself and the world are one. That is why all | |
| W1:64.2 | Yet we have learned that the Holy Spirit has another use for all the | illusions you have made, and therefore He sees another purpose in |
| W1:64.4 | forgiveness, because through it does the Son of God escape from all | illusions and thus from all temptation. The Son of God is you. Only |
| W1:65.10 | exact words, but try to get a sense of being willing to have your | illusions of purpose be replaced by truth. |
| W1:66.9 | two parts of your mind. One is ruled by the ego and is made up of | illusions. The other is the home of the Holy Spirit, where truth |
| W1:66.13 | as the same and the different as different. On one side stand all | illusions. All truth stands on the other. Let us try today to realize |
| W1:68.3 | your Self seems to sleep, while the part of your mind that weaves | illusions in its sleep appears to be awake. Can all this arise from |
| W1:70.13 | Since all | illusions of salvation have failed you, surely you do not want to |
| W1:72.5 | He is a liar and a deceiver, full of false promises and offering | illusions in place of truth. |
| W1:73.1 | Its wishes are not idle in the sense that they can make a world of | illusions in which your belief can be very strong. But they are idle |
| W1:73.6 | so. You cannot want this for yourself. There is a point beyond which | illusions cannot go. |
| W1:74.2 | it. The idea itself is wholly true. Therefore it cannot give rise to | illusions. Without illusions, conflict is impossible. Let us try to |
| W1:74.2 | is wholly true. Therefore it cannot give rise to illusions. Without | illusions, conflict is impossible. Let us try to recognize this today |
| W1:77.2 | Your claim to miracles does not lie in your | illusions about yourself. It does not depend on any magical powers |
| W1:R2.4 | the truth, and the life. Refuse to be side-tracked into detours, | illusions, and thoughts of death. You are dedicated to salvation. Be |
| W1:89.2 | would accept the miracles in place of the grievances, which are but | illusions that hide the miracles beyond. Now I would accept only what |
| W1:89.5 | from hell. By this idea do I express my willingness to have all my | illusions be replaced with truth according to God's plan for my |
| W1:95.11 | be laid aside, for it is but another way in which you would defend | illusions against the truth. Let all these errors go by recognizing |
| W1:95.18 | Feel this One Self in you, and let it shine away all your | illusions and your doubts. This is your Self, the Son of God Himself, |
| W1:95.18 | it is given you to feel this Self within you and to cast all your | illusions out of the One Mind which is this Self, the holy truth in |
| W1:96.7 | What purpose could it serve? What is it for? Salvation cannot make | illusions real and solve a problem that does not exist. Perhaps you |
| W1:96.14 | denied, and let your mind go wandering in a world of dreams, to find | illusions in their place. Here are your thoughts, the only ones you |
| W1:97.1 | can enter, for your mind has been absolved from madness, letting go | illusions of a split identity. |
| W1:98.1 | We take a stand on but one side today. We side with truth and let | illusions go. We will not vacillate between the two but take a firm |
| W1:99.2 | Truth and | illusions both are equal now, for both have happened. The impossible |
| W1:99.2 | reflects the truth because it is the means by which you can escape | illusions. Yet it is not truth because it undoes what was never done. |
| W1:99.3 | within a mind where both of them exist? The mind that sees | illusions thinks them real. They have existence in that they are |
| W1:99.4 | What plan could hold the truth inviolate, yet recognize the need | illusions bring and offer means by which they are undone without |
| W1:99.6 | This is the thought which brings | illusions to the truth, and sees them as appearances behind which is |
| W1:104.6 | of the world that offer other gifts and other goals made of | illusions, witnessed to by them, and sought for only in a world of |
| W1:107.1 | What can correct | illusions but the truth? And what are errors but illusions that |
| W1:107.1 | What can correct illusions but the truth? And what are errors but | illusions that remain unrecognized for what they are? Where truth has |
| W1:107.2 | Can you imagine what a state of mind without | illusions is? How it would feel? Try to remember when there was a |
| W1:107.4 | Without | illusions there could be no fear, no doubt, and no attack. When truth |
| W1:107.6 | for the truth needs no defense, and therefore no attack is possible. | Illusions can be brought to truth to be corrected. But the truth |
| W1:107.6 | be brought to truth to be corrected. But the truth stands far beyond | illusions and cannot be brought to them to turn them into truth. |
| W1:120.3 | I am as God created me. I am God's Son. Today I lay aside all sick | illusions of myself and let my Father tell me Who I really am. |
| W1:125.5 | have wandered off a little while from Him. He does not cherish the | illusions which you hold about yourself. He knows His Son and wills |
| W1:125.9 | of God the Son joins in His Father's Will, at one with It, with no | illusions interposed between the wholly indivisible and true. |
| W1:130.8 | beyond your own, and recognize what it is you seek. You do not want | illusions. And you come to these five minutes emptying your hands of |
| W1:132.1 | Belief is powerful indeed. The thoughts you hold are mighty, and | illusions are as strong in their effects as is the truth. A madman |
| W1:132.13 | real creations wait for this release to give you fatherhood, not of | illusions, but as God in truth. God shares His Fatherhood with you |
| W1:132.14 | a world which comes from this idea be real? Can it be anywhere? Deny | illusions, but accept the truth. Deny you are a shadow briefly laid |
| W1:132.15 | He created us would loose the world this day from every one of our | illusions that we may be free. |
| W1:134.2 | be limited to what is false. It is irrelevant to everything except | illusions. Truth is God's creation, and to pardon this is |
| W1:134.3 | part is that you still believe you must forgive the truth and not | illusions. You conceive of pardon as a vain attempt to look past what |
| W1:134.6 | it; a quiet blessing where it is received. It does not countenance | illusions but collects them lightly with a little laugh and gently |
| W1:134.7 | Forgiveness is the only thing that stands for truth in the | illusions of the world. It sees their nothingness and looks right |
| W1:134.8 | of pardon is its honesty, which is so uncorrupted that it sees | illusions as illusions, not as truth. It is because of this that it |
| W1:134.8 | is its honesty, which is so uncorrupted that it sees illusions as | illusions, not as truth. It is because of this that it becomes the |
| W1:134.10 | is innocence the only thing there is. Forgiveness stands between | illusions and the truth, between the world you see and that which |
| W1:135.1 | can save himself? And herein lies the folly of defense—it gives | illusions full reality and then attempts to handle them as real. It |
| W1:135.1 | full reality and then attempts to handle them as real. It adds | illusions to illusions, thus making correction doubly difficult. |
| W1:135.1 | and then attempts to handle them as real. It adds illusions to | illusions, thus making correction doubly difficult. |
| W1:136.6 | without regard to all their true relationships, and thus constructs | illusions of a whole which is not there. It is this process which |
| W1:136.11 | quails before such mad attacks as these, with God made blind by your | illusions, truth turned into lies, and all the universe made slave to |
| W1:136.11 | to laws which your defenses would impose on it. Yet who believes | illusions but the one who made them up? Who else can see them and |
| W1:136.15 | Truth has a power far beyond defense, for no | illusions can remain where it has been allowed to enter. And it comes |
| W1:137.4 | will remain exactly as it has forever been. Yet eyes accustomed to | illusions must be shown that what they look upon is false. So |
| W1:137.5 | overlooks all sins that never were accomplished, healing but removes | illusions that have not occurred. Just as the real world will arise |
| W1:137.11 | can remain to rest. For here is truth bestowed, and here are all | illusions brought to truth. |
| W1:138.2 | with fear, for this would be the error truth can be brought to | illusions. Opposition makes the truth unwelcome, and it cannot come. |
| W1:140.7 | provides that can effect a change in anything. The mind that brings | illusions to the truth is really changed. There is no change but |
| W1:140.8 | our minds about the source of sickness, for we seek a cure for all | illusions, not another shift among them. We will try today to find |
| W1:140.10 | Today we hear a single Voice which speaks to us of truth where all | illusions end, and peace returns to the eternal quiet home of God. |
| W1:R4.5 | of true forgiveness may be carefully concealed. Because they are | illusions, they are not perceived to be but what they are—defenses |
| W1:151.10 | in this world. His lessons will enable you to bridge the gap between | illusions and the truth. He will remove all faith that you have |
| W1:151.17 | at last, to carry round the world the joyous news that truth has no | illusions and the peace of God, through us, belongs to everyone. |
| W1:152.15 | the truth of God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for your | illusions of yourself. |
| W1:153.5 | Son of God as but a victim to attack by fantasies, by dreams, and by | illusions he has made; yet helpless he is in their presence, needful |
| W1:153.5 | needful only of defense by still more fantasies and dreams by which | illusions of his safety comfort him. |
| W1:153.7 | you believe you see at work in all the evils of the world? What but | illusions could defend you now, when it is but illusions which you |
| W1:153.7 | the world? What but illusions could defend you now, when it is but | illusions which you fight? |
| W1:155.2 | who choose to come to it are seeking for a place where they can be | illusions and avoid their own reality. Yet when they find their own |
| W1:155.8 | can but seem to hold in chains the holy Son of God. It is but from | illusions he is saved. As they step back, he finds himself again. |
| W1:155.9 | may find that you are tempted still to walk ahead of truth and let | illusions be your guide. Your holy brothers have been given you to |
| W1:155.10 | there will be no gap, no distance between truth and you. And all | illusions walking in the way you traveled will be gone from you as |
| W1:162.1 | disappears, and all things seen within its misty clouds and vaporous | illusions vanish as these words are spoken. For they come from God. |
| W1:163.2 | of fear, the host of sin, god of the guilty, and the lord of all | illusions and deceptions, does the thought of death seem mighty. For |
| W1:R5.12 | to claim the world. And we remind the world that it is free of all | illusions every time we say, |
| W1:182.11 | and yet He asks unceasingly that you return with Him and take | illusions as your gods no more. |
| W1:183.3 | Repeat God's Name and all the world responds by laying down | illusions. Every dream the world holds dear has suddenly gone by, and |
| W1:184.8 | Think not you made the world. | Illusions, yes! But what is true in earth and Heaven is beyond your |
| W1:185.4 | merely bargain. And what bargain can give them the peace of God? | Illusions come to take His place. And what He means is lost to |
| W1:185.5 | is to renounce all dreams. For no one means these words who wants | illusions and who therefore seeks the means which bring illusions. He |
| W1:185.5 | who wants illusions and who therefore seeks the means which bring | illusions. He has looked on them and found them wanting. Now he seeks |
| W1:185.7 | where all the rest have failed. To mean these words acknowledges | illusions are in vain, requesting the eternal in the place of |
| W1:185.8 | you and bring you happiness. But be you not dismayed by lingering | illusions, for their form is not what matters now. Let not some |
| W1:186.8 | our peace. We will accept the function God has given us, for all | illusions rest upon the weird belief that we can make another for |
| W1:187.7 | Illusions recognized must disappear. Accept not suffering, and you | |
| W1:189.6 | Today we pass | illusions as we seek to reach to what is true in us and feel Its |
| W1:190.3 | Pain is a sign | illusions reign in place of truth. It demonstrates God is denied, |
| W1:190.4 | pain, is mad as they and no more to be feared than the insane | illusions which it shields and tries to demonstrate must still be |
| W1:190.11 | we make the only choice that ever can be made—we choose between | illusions and the truth, or pain and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let our |
| W1:191.4 | this one thought is everything set free. In this one truth are all | illusions gone. In this one fact is sinlessness proclaimed to be |
| W1:194.5 | and loss, becomes the instant in which time escapes the bondage of | illusions where it runs its pitiless, inevitable course. Then is each |
| W1:194.8 | himself appealed for comfort and security. He lays aside the sick | illusions of the world along with his and offers peace to both. |
| W1:196.11 | of God has disappeared. And you can call on Him to save you from | illusions in His Love, calling Him Father and yourself His Son. Pray |
| W1:197.3 | The world must thank you when you offer it release from your | illusions. Yet your thanks belong to you as well, for its release can |
| W1:198.3 | away, and though it is itself a dream, it breeds no others. All | illusions save this one must multiply a thousand fold. But this is |
| W1:198.3 | save this one must multiply a thousand fold. But this is where | illusions end. Forgiveness is the end of dreams because it is a dream |
| W1:198.8 | could have a thought which builds a bridge to truth which brings | illusions to the other side? |
| W1:204.1 | Son, not slave to time, unbound by laws which rule the world of sick | illusions, free in God, forever and forever one with Him. I am not a |
| W1:212.1 | fill. I seek the function that would set me free from all the vain | illusions of the world. Only the function God has given me can offer |
| W2:I.9 | Now we are glad that this is all undone, and we no longer think | illusions true. The memory of God is shimmering across the wide |
| W2:226.1 | for as a goal, it will depart from me. For I have not sought for | illusions to replace the truth. |
| W2:227.1 | I was mistaken and did not affect my own reality at all by my | illusions. Now I give them up and lay them down before the feet of |
| W2:WS.3 | failing to support the world of dreams and malice. Thus it lets | illusions go. By not supporting them, it merely lets them quietly go |
| W2:240.1 | what the form in which it may appear. It witnesses but to your own | illusions of yourself. Let us not be deceived today. We are the Son |
| W2:WIW.3 | which the world was made to witness and make real. They see in its | illusions but a solid base where truth exists, upheld apart from |

implications (1) | ||
| Tx:3.1 | study these earlier sections, you will begin to see some of their | implications, which will be amplified considerably later on. |
implicit (7) | ||
| Tx:2.7 | First, the assumption is | implicit that what God created can be changed by the mind of man. |
| Tx:2.61 | It is essential to remember that only the mind can create. | Implicit in this is the corollary that correction belongs at the |
| Tx:2.97 | in the real basic conflict are creation and miscreation. All fear is | implicit in the second, just as all love is inherent in the first. |
| Tx:3.76 | God and His Souls are not co-creators. The belief that they are is | implicit in the “self concept,” a concept now made acceptable by its |
| Tx:8.1 | on the grounds that you do not know. The need for the course is | implicit in your objection. Knowledge is not the motivation for |
| Tx:17.62 | The goal of truth requires faith. Faith is | implicit in the acceptance of the Holy Spirit's purpose, and this |
| W1:77.2 | you have devised. It is inherent in the truth of what you are. It is | implicit in what God your Father is. It was ensured in your creation |

| Tx:18.33 | Trust not your good intentions. They are not enough. But trust | implicitly your willingness, whatever else may enter. Concentrate |

| Tx:6.88 | it is inherent in the third step, which brings together the lessons | implied in the others and goes beyond them towards real integration. |
implies (48) | ||
| Tx:1.77 | appropriate for miracles, because a state of awe is worshipful. It | implies that one of a lesser order stands before a greater one. This |
| Tx:1.78 | among equals. Equals cannot be in awe of one another because awe | implies inequality. It is therefore an inappropriate reaction to me. |
| Tx:1.89 | creations of man. It is, in fact, the essential difference. A need | implies lack by definition. It involves the recognition that you |
| Tx:1.103 | these fantasies are so frequent or occur so reliably that this | implies validity. Remember that while validity implies reliability, |
| Tx:1.103 | so reliably that this implies validity. Remember that while validity | implies reliability, the relationship is not reversible. You can be |
| Tx:2.5 | Whenever projection is used inappropriately, it always | implies that some emptiness or lack exists and that it is in man's |
| Tx:2.11 | It is important to note that the term “project outward” necessarily | implies that the real source of projection is internal. This is as |
| Tx:2.12 | all loving creation is freely given. Nothing in these statements | implies any sort of level involvement or in fact anything except one |
| Tx:2.26 | right mind and gives it control over the body. “Intellectualization” | implies a split, while “right-mindedness” involves healing. |
| Tx:2.30 | in whatever direction you choose, but note that the concept itself | implies flight from something. Flight from error is perfectly |
| Tx:2.56 | in a particularly unworthy form of denial. The term “unworthy” here | implies simply that it is not necessary to protect the mind by |
| Tx:2.71 | The way in which both of these perceptions are stated clearly | implies their dependence on time, making it quite apparent that |
| Tx:2.80 | your will under my guidance without much conscious effort, but this | implies habit patterns which you have not developed dependably as |
| Tx:3.10 | of reality. The latter involves a time awareness, since to remember | implies recalling the past in the present. Time is under my |
| Tx:3.32 | obvious. They are subject to transitory states, and this necessarily | implies variability. How you perceive at any given time determines |

| Tx:3.54 | your image” merely recognizes the power of perception, but it also | implies that there is nothing to know. Knowing is not open to |
| Tx:3.62 | unreal. This cannot be avoided in any type of judgment, because it | implies the belief that reality is yours to choose from. |
| Tx:4.5 | kind of thinking which stems from it. The idea of buying and selling | implies precisely the kind of exchange that the Soul cannot |
| Tx:4.30 | you consider the concepts involved. To the ego, to give anything | implies that you will do without it. When you associate giving with |
| Tx:4.54 | in this respect is meaningful only when the idea of “getting,” which | implies a lack, has already been accepted. That is why we made no |
| Tx:4.82 | state. It is as true now as it ever was or ever will be because it | implies no change at all. It is not a continuum nor is it understood |

| Tx:6.80 | Nevertheless, the evaluation “more desirable” still | implies that the desirable has degrees. Therefore, although this step |

| Tx:7.13 | The term “intrapersonal” is an ego term, because “personal” | implies “of one person” and not of others. “Interpersonal” has a |
| Tx:7.14 | because learning is essential. This form of the law clearly | implies that you will learn what you are from what you have projected |
| Tx:10.41 | the contradiction in terms which makes it meaningless. “Dynamics” | implies the power to do something, and the whole separation fallacy |

| Tx:18.6 | it was, and so it still remains. Invest it not with guilt, for guilt | implies it was accomplished in reality. And above all, be not afraid |
| Tx:21.81 | be made and then unmade and made again. But truth is constant and | implies a state where vacillations are impossible. You can desire a |

| W1:12.5 | that a “good world” implies a “bad” one, and a “satisfying world” | implies an “unsatisfying” one. All terms which cross your mind are |
| W1:20.4 | throughout the day that you want to see. Today's idea also tacitly | implies the recognition that you do not see now. Therefore, as you |

| W1:152.11 | To recognize God's Son | implies as well that all self-concepts have been laid aside and |
| W1:163.7 | that even the insane have difficulty in believing it. For it | implies that God was once alive and somehow perished, killed, |
| W2:WIM.4 | The miracle is taken first on faith because to ask for it | implies the mind has been made ready to conceive of what it cannot |

| Tx:1.88 | Equality does not | imply homogeneity now. When everyone recognizes that he has |
| Tx:2.88 | this. For example, when you say, “Don't give it a thought,” you | imply that if you do not think about something, it will have no |
| Tx:2.103 | but this is by no means necessarily undivided. The state does not | imply more than a potential for a shift of will. |
| Tx:2.104 | only the beginning of confidence. In case this be misunderstood to | imply that an enormous amount of time will be necessary between |
| Tx:3.71 | scales of desire. Wishes are not facts by definition. To wish is to | imply that willing is not sufficient. Yet no one believes that what |
| Tx:4.95 | ego perceives is a separate whole, without the relationships that | imply being. The ego is thus against communication except in so far |
| Tx:6.56 | God does not teach. To teach is to | imply a lack, which God knows is not there. God is not conflicted. |
| Tx:23.7 | unless belief in victory is cherished. Conflict within you must | imply that you believe the ego has the power to be victorious. Why |

| W1:64.6 | the form of the decision deceive you. Complexity of form does not | imply complexity of content. It is impossible that any decision on |
| W1:99.1 | Salvation and forgiveness are the same. They both | imply that something has gone wrong—something you need to be saved |

| Tx:3.35 | you can know him. While you ask questions about God, you are clearly | implying that you do not know Him. Certainty does not require action. |
| Tx:3.52 | is obviously why you would want to make anything, you are tacitly | implying that you believe in separation. Knowing, as we have |

| Tx:6.61 | an attempt to resolve conflict by not willing at all. Like any other | impossible solution which the ego attempts, it will not work. |
| Tx:6.65 | promoting attack, and attack always breaks communication, making it | impossible. |
| Tx:6.74 | the increasing clarity of the Holy Spirit's Voice makes it | impossible for the learner not to listen. For a time, then, he is |
| Tx:6.75 | thought systems which are in complete disagreement, peace of mind is | impossible. If you teach both, which you will surely do as long as |
| Tx:7.17 | the intimate connection of learning and memory. Learning is | impossible without memory, since it cannot be consistent unless it is |
| Tx:7.26 | are not what you are. This is so contradictory that it is clearly | impossible. It is therefore a lesson which you cannot really learn, |
| Tx:7.28 | interests are possible, and therefore you have accepted the | impossible as true. How is that different from saying that you are |
| Tx:7.54 | the Sonship only as one, you can perceive it as fragmented. It is | impossible, however, for you to see something in part of it that you |
| Tx:7.70 | feel deprived. This is because denial is as total as love. It is as | impossible to deny part of the Sonship as it is to love it in part. |
| Tx:7.86 | it about yourself. There is no way out of this, because it is | impossible to fragment the mind. |
| Tx:7.94 | The full appreciation of its self-fullness makes selfishness | impossible and extension inevitable. That is why there is perfect |
| Tx:7.96 | God's Will is meaningful only to the insane. In truth it is | impossible. Your self-fullness is as boundless as God's. Like His, it |
| Tx:7.102 | to do the opposite of God's Will. Therefore, you believe that an | impossible choice is open to you and one which is both very fearful |
| Tx:7.102 | ego's wishes do not mean anything, because the ego wishes for the | impossible. You can wish for the impossible, but you can will only |
| Tx:7.102 | because the ego wishes for the impossible. You can wish for the | impossible, but you can will only with God. This is the ego's |
| Tx:7.103 | a confusion in motivation and, given this confusion, trust becomes | impossible. |
| Tx:8.7 | disagreement about everything. Their joint curriculum presents an | impossible learning task. They are teaching you entirely different |
| Tx:8.8 | Even if you could disregard the Holy Spirit entirely, which is quite | impossible, you could learn nothing from the ego because the ego |
| Tx:8.28 | despise and reject me, because the world is the belief that love is | impossible. Your reactions to me are the reactions of the world to |
| Tx:8.30 | against healing, and your veto of my will for you makes healing | impossible. If healing is our joint will, unless our wills are joined |
| Tx:8.57 | loss comes only from your own misunderstanding. Loss of any kind is | impossible. When you look upon a brother as a physical entity, his |
| Tx:8.59 | “The Word (or thought) was made flesh.” Strictly speaking this is | impossible, since it seems to involve the translation of one order of |
| Tx:8.60 | adequacy suffers, and he must become depressed. Being faced with an | impossible learning situation, regardless of why it is impossible, is |
| Tx:8.60 | faced with an impossible learning situation, regardless of why it is | impossible, is the most depressing thing in the world. In fact, it is |
| Tx:8.70 | is no difference between the whole and the part where change is | impossible. |
| Tx:8.83 | of death than death is a form of unconsciousness. Unconsciousness is | impossible. You can rest in peace only because you are awake. |
| Tx:8.85 | and that to make mindless is to heal. But to make mindless is | impossible since it would mean to make nothing out of what God |
| Tx:8.88 | I would not ask you to do the things you cannot do, and it is | impossible that I could do things you cannot do. Given this, and |
| Tx:8.91 | It is | impossible to learn anything consistently in a state of panic. If the |
| Tx:8.92 | You have set this strange situation up so that it is completely | impossible to escape from it without a Guide who does know what your |
| Tx:8.94 | that willing is salvation because it is communication. It is | impossible to communicate in alien tongues. You and your Creator can |
| Tx:8.101 | truth. What would you say of someone who persisted in attempting the | impossible, believing that to achieve it is success? The belief that |
| Tx:8.101 | that to achieve it is success? The belief that you must have the | impossible in order to be happy is totally at variance with the |
| Tx:8.102 | It is indeed possible for you to deny facts, although it is | impossible for you to change them. If you hold your hands over your |
| Tx:8.103 | are strong, they will induce panic. Willing against reality, though | impossible, can be made into a very persistent goal, even though you |
| Tx:8.109 | fear. It is possible that His answer will not be heard at all. It is | impossible, however, that it will be lost. There are many answers |
| Tx:8.117 | giving you receive. But to receive is to accept, not to get. It is | impossible not to have, but it is possible not to know you have. The |
| Tx:9.12 | will not work. By following it, you will merely place yourself in an | impossible situation to which the ego always leads you. The ego's |
| Tx:9.18 | you remembered, you could no more have been wrong than God can. The | impossible can happen only in fantasy. When you search for reality in |
| Tx:9.64 | long as your minds are split, and to attack what you have created is | impossible. But remember that it is as impossible for God. The law of |
| Tx:9.64 | what you have created is impossible. But remember that it is as | impossible for God. The law of creation is that you love your |
| Tx:9.67 | wish to sleep but only the will to waken and be glad. Dreams will be | impossible, because you will want only truth, and being at last your |
| Tx:9.77 | it is the belief that power can be taken from you. Yet this is | impossible, because you are part of God, Who is all power. |
| Tx:10.1 | diametrically opposed in all respects so that partial allegiance is | impossible. Remember, too, that their results are as different as |
| Tx:10.36 | is barred and you cannot enter. The door is not barred, and it is | impossible for you to be unable to enter the place where God would |
| Tx:10.50 | could be accomplished, God's purpose could be defeated, and this is | impossible. Only by learning what fear is, can you finally learn to |
| Tx:10.50 | fear is, can you finally learn to distinguish the possible from the | impossible and the false from the true. According to the ego's |
| Tx:10.59 | It is | impossible not to believe what you see, but it is equally impossible |
| Tx:10.59 | It is impossible not to believe what you see, but it is equally | impossible to see what you do not believe. Perceptions are built up |
| Tx:10.90 | Spirit, who will teach you that, as part of God, deceit in you is | impossible. When you perceive yourself without deceit, you will |
| Tx:11.47 | cannot learn. The learning situation in which you placed yourself is | impossible, and in this situation you clearly require a special |
| Tx:11.75 | The ego is not a traitor to God to Whom treachery is | impossible, but it is a traitor to you who believe you have been |
| Tx:11.99 | for you, you cannot attack yourself, for without guilt, attack is | impossible. You, then, are saved because God's Son is guiltless. And |
| Tx:13.1 | and which therefore no one in the world knows. It would indeed be | impossible to be in the world with this knowledge. For the mind that |
| Tx:13.16 | For so you learn that it is true for you. Remember always that it is | impossible to condemn the Son of God in part. Those whom you see as |
| Tx:13.39 | every trace of guilt that His dear Son has laid upon himself. It is | impossible that this mission fail. Nothing can prevent what God would |
| Tx:13.63 | of its simplicity is so compelling that you will realize it is | impossible to deny the simple truth. For there is nothing else. God |
| Tx:13.69 | does it not will make no difference; you will think he does. It is | impossible to offer what you do not want without this penalty. The |
| Tx:13.74 | them and gives them what they will without effort, strain, or the | impossible burden of deciding what they want and need alone. |
| Tx:13.79 | forget the love of God, Who has remembered you. For it is quite | impossible that He could ever let His Son drop from His loving mind |
| Tx:13.80 | God knows about you, and in this light, error of any kind becomes | impossible. Why would you struggle so frantically to anticipate all |
| Tx:14.1 | God Himself has placed it. If you would but listen and learn how | impossible this is! Do not endow Him with attributes you understand. |
| Tx:14.26 | viewpoints of what the “unknowing” are. To God, unknowing is | impossible. It is therefore not a point of view at all but merely a |
| Tx:14.27 | if they were brought together their joint acceptance would become | impossible. But if one is kept in darkness from the other, their |
| Tx:14.34 | in the communication that God Himself wills with His Son is quite | impossible here. Unbroken and uninterrupted love flows constantly |
| Tx:14.39 | can no longer stand. How long can contradiction stand when its | impossible nature is clearly revealed? What disappears in light is |
| Tx:14.48 | from elsewhere, not from here. From the world's viewpoint, this is | impossible. You have experienced lack of competition among your |
| Tx:14.54 | meaning, and the underlying lack of content makes a cohesive system | impossible. Separation therefore remains the ego's chosen condition. |
| Tx:14.55 | It is | impossible to remember God in secret and alone. For remembering Him |
| Tx:14.61 | for it is nothing more than a condition in which seeing becomes | impossible. You who have not yet brought all of the darkness you have |
| Tx:14.67 | He cannot compel His Son to turn to Him and remain Himself. It is | impossible that God lose His Identity, for if He did, you would lose |
| Tx:14.68 | so to remain, establish for yourself your guiltlessness? That is | impossible. But be sure that you are willing to acknowledge that it |
| Tx:14.68 | But be sure that you are willing to acknowledge that it is | impossible. It is only because you think that you can run some little |
| Tx:14.75 | as it is His. You think you know Him not only because, alone, it is | impossible to know Him. Yet see the mighty works that He will do |
| Tx:14.75 | you, and you must be convinced you did them through Him. It is | impossible to deny the Source of effects so powerful they could not |
| Tx:15.42 | hidden shuts communication off because you would have it so. It is | impossible to recognize perfect communication while breaking |
| Tx:15.45 | past experience is the basis on which you judge. Judgment becomes | impossible without the past, for without it you do not understand |
| Tx:15.54 | God gave to it. Give to it any meaning apart from His, and it is | impossible to understand it. Every brother God loves as He loves you |
| Tx:15.56 | It is | impossible to use one relationship at the expense of another and not |
| Tx:15.56 | at the expense of another and not suffer guilt. And it is equally | impossible to condemn part of a relationship and find peace within |
| Tx:15.60 | In the world of scarcity, love has no meaning, and peace is | impossible. For gain and loss are both accepted, and so no one is |
| Tx:15.61 | Son of God accepts the laws of God as what he gladly wills, it is | impossible that he be bound or limited in any way. In this instant, |
| Tx:15.66 | It is | impossible for the ego to enter into any relationship without anger, |
| Tx:15.71 | accept the guilt and sacrifice himself as well. Forgiveness becomes | impossible, for the ego believes that to forgive another is to lose |
| Tx:15.77 | this without fear. It is through the holy instant that what seems | impossible is accomplished, making it evident that it is not |
| Tx:15.77 | seems impossible is accomplished, making it evident that it is not | impossible. In the holy instant, guilt holds no attraction, since |
| Tx:15.84 | because it is His function. Leave, then, what seems to you to be | impossible to Him Who knows it must be possible because it is the |
| Tx:15.86 | at all the interference and seeing it exactly as it is. For it is | impossible to recognize as wholly without gratification what you |
| Tx:15.86 | more than attempts to limit communication and thereby to make it | impossible. For communication must be unlimited in order to have |
| Tx:15.88 | It is | impossible to divide your strength between Heaven and hell, God and |
| Tx:15.89 | and quiet in such sure and loving relationships that any limit is | impossible. Would you not exchange your little relationships for |
| Tx:15.106 | you seek for sacrifice and find it. Yet you find not love. It is | impossible to deny what love is and still recognize it. The meaning |
| Tx:16.11 | Therefore, your understanding cannot be necessary. Yet it is still | impossible to accomplish what you do not understand. And so there |
| Tx:16.12 | show you instantly that order of difficulty in miracles is quite | impossible, for it involves a contradiction of what miracles mean. |
| Tx:16.13 | understand it and you to use His understanding on your behalf. It is | impossible to convince you of the reality of what has clearly been |
| Tx:16.23 | not also show you that you do not regard yourself as one? For it is | impossible to teach successfully wholly without conviction, and it is |
| Tx:16.23 | to teach successfully wholly without conviction, and it is equally | impossible that conviction be outside of you. You could never have |
| Tx:16.30 | hate relationship, for freedom lies in looking at it. It would be | impossible not to know the meaning of love except for this. For the |
| Tx:16.36 | love's condition, the special love relationship would accomplish the | impossible. How but in illusion could this be done? It is essential |
| Tx:16.58 | that God is on the other side and nothing at all is here. It is | impossible not to make the natural decision as this is realized. |
| Tx:16.59 | has no meaning except as its Creator defined it by His Will. It is | impossible to define it otherwise and understand it. |
| Tx:16.70 | It is | impossible to let the past go without relinquishing the special |
| Tx:16.77 | Will to give. He gave the holy instant to be given you, and it is | impossible that you receive it not, because He gave it. When He |
| Tx:16.80 | all problems, be they perceived as great or small, possible or | impossible. There is nothing that will not give place to Him and to |
| Tx:17.1 | his God. Yet what is done in dreams has not been really done. It is | impossible to convince the dreamer that this is so, for dreams are |
| Tx:17.18 | once. Once it is formed, doubt must enter in because its purpose is | impossible. The only such relationships which retain the fantasies |
| Tx:17.28 | In this world it is | impossible to create, yet it is possible to make happy. We have said |
| Tx:17.54 | each other, for the attack must blind you to yourself. And it is | impossible to deny yourself and recognize what has been given and |
| Tx:17.59 | outcome set in advance makes understanding doubtful and evaluation | impossible. |
| Tx:17.65 | is no shift in any aspect of the problem but will make solution | impossible. For if you shift part of the problem elsewhere, the |
| Tx:17.65 | are judged to be in conflict. But if the goal is truth, this is | impossible. Some idea of bodies must have entered, for minds cannot |
| Tx:18.3 | The one emotion in which substitution is | impossible is love. Fear involves substitution by definition, for it |
| Tx:18.4 | subdivided and divided again, over and over, that it is now almost | impossible to perceive it once was one and still is what it was. That |
| Tx:18.26 | walks beside you on this way which you have chosen, fear would be | impossible. You do not know because the journey into darkness has |
| Tx:18.35 | in thinking that it is needful to prepare yourself for Him. It is | impossible to make arrogant preparations for holiness and not believe |
| Tx:18.40 | your decision to make everything that is natural and easy for you | impossible. What you believe to be impossible will be if God so wills |
| Tx:18.40 | that is natural and easy for you impossible. What you believe to be | impossible will be if God so wills it, but you will remain quite |
| Tx:18.44 | it otherwise.” The alignment of means and purpose is an undertaking | impossible for you to understand. You do not even realize you have |
| Tx:18.46 | The power of joining and its blessing lie in the fact that it is now | impossible for either of you to experience fear alone or to attempt |
| Tx:18.46 | believe that this is necessary or even possible. Yet just as this is | impossible, so is it equally impossible that the holy instant come to |
| Tx:18.46 | or even possible. Yet just as this is impossible, so is it equally | impossible that the holy instant come to either of you without the |
| Tx:18.54 | its attack and blaming it for what you wished it to do. It is | impossible to act out fantasies. For it is still the fantasies you |
| Tx:18.66 | It is | impossible to accept the holy instant without reservation unless just |
| Tx:19.4 | you have established a condition in which uniting with him becomes | impossible. Your faithlessness to him has separated you from him and |
| Tx:19.5 | dedicated to illusions; faith wholly to truth. Partial dedication is | impossible. Truth is the absence of illusion; illusion the absence of |
| Tx:19.6 | same place. To dedicate yourself to both is to set up a goal forever | impossible to attain, for part of it is sought through the body, |
| Tx:19.19 | for all the wild insanity inherent in the whole idea of sin, it is | impossible. For the wages of sin is death, and how can the immortal |
| Tx:19.22 | to it for judgment. As a mistake, it must be brought to truth. It is | impossible to have faith in sin, for sin is faithlessness. Yet it is |
| Tx:19.23 | is its reality; this is the “truth” from which escape will always be | impossible. This is his past, his present, and his future. For he has |
| Tx:19.31 | is extension, the Creator must have extended Himself, and it is | impossible that what is part of Him is totally unlike the rest. If |
| Tx:19.33 | holy relationship has as its purpose now the goal of proving this is | impossible. Heaven has smiled upon it, and the belief in sin has been |
| Tx:19.38 | the gift of holiness, without which it would have been forever | impossible to appreciate each other. |
| Tx:19.71 | It is | impossible to seek for pleasure through the body and not find pain. |
| Tx:19.75 | Hear not its madness, and believe not the | impossible is true. Forget not that the ego has dedicated the body to |
| Tx:19.79 | This is not arrogance. It is the Will of God. What is | impossible to you who chose His Will as yours? What is death to you? |
| Tx:20.26 | on ourselves. Here all thoughts of any separation between us become | impossible. You who were prisoners in separation are now made free in |
| Tx:20.35 | must be done before the way to peace is open. Perhaps this seems | impossible to you. But ask yourself if it is possible that God would |
| Tx:20.39 | It is | impossible to overestimate your brother's value. Only the ego does |
| Tx:20.44 | He looks upon himself not as his Father knows him. And yet it is | impossible the confidence of God should be misplaced. |
| Tx:20.58 | This need not be. This course requires almost nothing of you. It is | impossible to imagine one that asks so little or could offer more. |
| Tx:20.60 | we look at them a little closer, remember that if you think they are | impossible, your wanting of the purpose has been shaken. For if a |
| Tx:20.61 | It is | impossible to see your brother as sinless and yet to look upon him as |
| Tx:20.61 | so what was always true is recognized. To see a sinless body is | impossible, for holiness is positive, and the body is merely neutral. |
| Tx:21.17 | It is | impossible the Son of God be merely driven by events outside of him. |
| Tx:21.17 | the Son of God be merely driven by events outside of him. It is | impossible that the happenings that come to him were not his choice. |
| Tx:21.31 | that they can hold him and placing it in his freedom instead. It is | impossible to place equal faith in opposite directions. What faith |
| Tx:21.33 | It is | impossible that the Son of God lack faith, but he can choose where he |
| Tx:21.60 | have no effect at all on what is yours? If minds are joined, this is | impossible. |
| Tx:21.72 | have not joined each other. For had they done so, hatred would be | impossible. The army of the powerless must be disbanded in the |
| Tx:21.73 | else. How treacherous does this enemy appear, who changes so it is | impossible even to recognize him! |
| Tx:21.81 | But truth is constant and implies a state where vacillations are | impossible. You can desire a world you rule which rules you not, and |
| Tx:22.6 | hard you tried to understand its messages. You did not realize it is | impossible to understand what fails entirely to reach you. |
| Tx:22.20 | make of it is not the same. The ego will assure you now that it is | impossible for you to see no guilt in anyone. And if this vision is |
| Tx:22.20 | Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom nothing He wills can be | impossible, the means for its attainment are more than possible. They |
| Tx:22.21 | their use will you gain faith in them. Yet to the ego this must be | impossible, and no one undertakes to do what holds no hope of ever |
| Tx:22.26 | Only your thoughts have been | impossible. Salvation cannot be. It is impossible to look upon your |
| Tx:22.26 | Only your thoughts have been impossible. Salvation cannot be. It is | impossible to look upon your savior as your enemy and recognize him. |
| Tx:22.37 | is attracted to him to perpetuate his sins. And so it must become | impossible for each to see himself as causing sin by his desire to |
| Tx:22.47 | Him? It is your Father Whom you would defend against. Yet it remains | impossible to keep love out. God rests with you in quiet, undefended |
| Tx:22.52 | to serve illusions. This is a situation so contradictory and so | impossible that anyone who chooses this has no idea of what is |
| Tx:22.53 | another, using your bodies only to serve the sinless. And it will be | impossible for you to hate what serves what you would heal. |
| Tx:22.62 | to attack in safety? Attack is neither safe nor dangerous. It is | impossible. And this is so because the universe is one. You would not |
| Tx:22.65 | can also teach the power of love is there, which makes all fear | impossible? Do not attempt to keep a little of the ego with this |
| Tx:23.7 | of peace, and what the warlike would remember is not love. War is | impossible unless belief in victory is cherished. Conflict within you |
| Tx:23.9 | Be certain that it is | impossible God and the ego, or yourself and it, will ever meet. You |
| Tx:23.25 | fear of God is reinforced by this third principle. Now it becomes | impossible to turn to Him for help in misery. For now He has become |
| Tx:23.25 | inevitable and beyond the help of God. And now salvation must remain | impossible because the savior has become the enemy. |
| Tx:23.37 | equal in their inaccuracy and lack of meaning. Life not in Heaven is | impossible, and what is not in Heaven is not anywhere. Outside of |
| Tx:23.37 | Outside of Heaven, only the conflict of illusions stands; senseless, | impossible, and beyond all reason, and yet perceived as an eternal |
| Tx:23.43 | has been accepted, for compromise is the belief salvation is | impossible. It would maintain you can attack a little, love a little, |
| Tx:23.44 | salvation is attack. Yet it is certain the belief that salvation is | impossible cannot uphold a quiet, calm assurance it has come. |
| Tx:23.44 | assault upon your peace in any form, if only thus does it become | impossible that you lose sight of it? It can be kept shining before |
| Tx:23.54 | the same, eternally complete, and wholly shared. They know it is | impossible their happiness could ever suffer change of any kind. |
| Tx:24.4 | never openly attack each other, because conflicting outcomes are | impossible. But an unrecognized belief is a decision to war in |
| Tx:24.14 | Specialness is the idea of sin made real. Sin is | impossible even to imagine without this base. For sin arose from it |
| Tx:24.26 | Forgiveness is release from all illusions, and that is why it is | impossible but partly to forgive. No one who clings to one illusion |
| Tx:24.36 | is difficult to grasp as yet. To minds intent on specialness, it is | impossible. Yet to those who wish to heal and not attack, it is quite |
| Tx:25.61 | for all insane beliefs can be corrected here. And sin must be | impossible if this is true. This is the rock on which salvation |
| Tx:25.64 | called upon to do what one divided still against himself would find | impossible. Have little faith that wisdom could be found in such a |
| Tx:25.67 | just is to be fair and not be vengeful. Fairness and vengeance are | impossible, for each one contradicts the other and denies that it is |
| Tx:25.67 | for each one contradicts the other and denies that it is real. It is | impossible for you to share the Holy Spirit's justice with a mind |
| Tx:25.74 | love is justice prejudiced and weak. And love without justice is | impossible. For love is fair and cannot chasten without cause. What |
| Tx:25.75 | witness to the power of love and justice if you understand it is | impossible the Son of God could merit vengeance. You need not |
| Tx:25.80 | to it and made it greater, harder to resolve, and more unfair. It is | impossible the Holy Spirit could see unfairness as a resolution. To |
| Tx:25.81 | The sight of innocence makes punishment | impossible and justice sure. The Holy Spirit's perception leaves no |
| Tx:26.21 | lies the difference between the worlds. In this one, choice is made | impossible. In the real world is choosing simplified. |
| Tx:26.51 | It is | impossible that one illusion be less amenable to truth than are the |
| Tx:26.57 | And this He guaranteed when He created him as everything. It is | impossible that anything be lost if what you have is what you are. |
| Tx:26.69 | you still believe you are external to each other. This makes trust | impossible. And you cannot believe that trust would settle every |
| Tx:27.37 | now. Yet it must also be that in your state of mind solution is | impossible. Therefore, God must have given you a way of reaching to |
| Tx:27.90 | learn that both of you are innocent or guilty. The one thing that is | impossible is that you be unlike each other; that they both be true. |
| Tx:28.18 | his cause and not allow himself to be his Father's Son. For this | impossible desire, he does not believe that he is Love's effect and |
| Tx:29.1 | least and littlest gap would represent in His eternal love is quite | impossible. For it would mean His love could harbor just a hint of |
| Tx:29.10 | on it as an enemy? Why does an easy path, so clearly marked it is | impossible to lose the way, seem thorny, rough, and far too difficult |
| Tx:29.57 | and place and time are given form and shape the world where the | impossible has happened. Here the deathless come to die, the |
| Tx:30.73 | keep the sense of sin alive. And recognizing God is just, it seems | impossible His pardon could be real. Thus is the fear of God the sure |
| Tx:30.86 | shift and meaning change. In one united goal does this become | impossible, for your agreement makes interpretation stabilize and |
| Tx:31.1 | says is what was never true is not true now and never will be. The | impossible has not occurred and can have no effects. And that is all. |
| Tx:31.39 | to be found. If this be difficult to understand, then is this course | impossible to learn. But only then. For otherwise, it is a simple |
| Tx:31.66 | will stand against the truth of what you are. Undoing truth would be | impossible. But concepts are not difficult to change. One vision, |
| Tx:31.68 | lurk behind. This concept emphasizes treachery, and trust becomes | impossible. Nor could it change while you perceive the “bad” in you. |
| W1:4.2 | sight difficult. The “bad” ones are blocks to sight and make seeing | impossible. You do not want either. |
| W1:13.1 | specific as to the emotion aroused. Actually, a meaningless world is | impossible. Nothing without meaning exists. However, it does not |
| W1:14.1 | idea for today is, of course, the reason why a meaningless world is | impossible. What God did not create does not exist. And everything |
| W1:16.3 | brings either peace or war, either love or fear. A neutral result is | impossible because a neutral thought is impossible. There is such a |
| W1:16.3 | or fear. A neutral result is impossible because a neutral thought is | impossible. There is such a temptation to dismiss fear thoughts as |
| W1:45.4 | the beliefs of the world tell us that what God would have us do is | impossible. |
| W1:47.8 | there is perfect peace. There is a place in you where nothing is | impossible. There is a place in you where the strength of God abides. |
| W1:52.2 | because I see what is not there. Reality is never frightening. It is | impossible that it could upset me. Reality brings only perfect peace. |

| W1:79.5 | forms, and with such varied content that they confront you with an | impossible situation. Dismay and depression are inevitable as you |
| W1:90.5 | will teach me this if I will let Him. And I will understand it is | impossible that I could have a problem which has not been solved |
| W1:91.4 | How can this be reversed? For you it is | impossible, but you are not alone in this. Your efforts, however |

| W1:163.6 | It is | impossible to worship death in any form and still select a few you |

| W1:192.5 | that it will die nor be the prey of merciless attack. Anger becomes | impossible, and where is terror then? What fears could still assail |
| W1:196.6 | is no hope. Until you see that this, at least, must be entirely | impossible, how could there be escape? The fear of God is real to |
| W1:196.8 | From there we go ahead quite rapidly. For once you understand it is | impossible that you be hurt except by your own thoughts, the fear of |
| W1:198.1 | Injury is | impossible. And yet illusion makes illusion. If you can condemn, you |

| W2:240.1 | as you could never be and therefore look upon a world which is | impossible. Not one thing in this world is true. It does not matter |

| W2:253.1 | It is | impossible that anything should come to me unbidden by myself. Even |
| W2:256.1 | dream. But we can dream we have forgiven him in whom all sin remains | impossible, and it is this we choose to dream today. God is our goal; |
| W2:284.1 | Loss is not loss when properly perceived. Pain is | impossible. There is no grief with any cause at all. And suffering of |
| W2:284.2 | Father, what You have given cannot hurt, and grief and pain must be | impossible. Let me not fail to trust in You today, accepting but the |
| W2:WIRW.1 | eyes forgiveness blesses, so they see a world where terror is | impossible and witnesses to fear cannot be found. |

| M:4.4 | When this Power has once been experienced, it is | impossible to trust one's own petty strength again. Who would attempt |
| M:4.7 | interests on behalf of truth. He has not realized as yet how wholly | impossible such a demand would be. He can learn this only as he |
| M:4.9 | The idea of sacrifice, so central to his thought system, had made it | impossible for him to judge. He thought he had learned willingness, |

| M:4.11 | At no level are they in conflict with themselves. Therefore it is | impossible for them to be in conflict with anyone or anything. |
| M:4.12 | doubt, and the trust on which God's teachers rest secure makes doubt | impossible. Therefore they can only succeed. In this, as in all |
| M:4.13 | a position you do not have. Judgment without self-deception is | impossible. Judgment implies that you have been deceived in your |
| M:4.14 | Harm is | impossible for God's teachers. They can neither harm nor be harmed. |
| M:4.14 | angry, and suspicious. It will make the Holy Spirit's lessons | impossible to learn. Nor can God's Teacher be heard at all except by |
| M:4.15 | of salvation becomes easy. To those who would do harm, it is | impossible. To those to whom harm has no meaning, it is merely |
| M:4.16 | inevitable result of gentleness. Gentleness means that fear is now | impossible, and what could come to interfere with joy? The open hands |

| M:7.4 | It has all the appearances of love. Yet love without trust is | impossible, and doubt and trust cannot coexist. And hate must be the |
| M:7.4 | love, regardless of the form it takes. Doubt not the gift, and it is | impossible to doubt its result. This is the certainty that gives |
| M:7.6 | of conflicting wishes. Be sure of what you want, and doubt becomes | impossible. |
| M:10.2 | merely become more honest. Recognizing that judgment was always | impossible for him, he no longer attempts it. This is no sacrifice. |
| M:10.3 | learning, is the recognition that judgment in the usual sense is | impossible. This is not an opinion, but a fact. In order to judge |
| M:11.1 | This is a question everyone must ask. Certainly peace seems to be | impossible. Yet the Word of God promises other things that seem |
| M:11.1 | be impossible. Yet the Word of God promises other things that seem | impossible, as well as this. His Word has promised peace. It has also |
| M:11.1 | us that peace is possible here, and what He promises can hardly be | impossible. But it is true that the world must be looked at |
| M:11.4 | Peace is | impossible to those who look on war. Peace is inevitable to those who |
| M:11.4 | of the world escaped! It is not the world that makes peace seem | impossible. It is the world you see that is impossible. Yet has God's |
| M:11.4 | that makes peace seem impossible. It is the world you see that is | impossible. Yet has God's Judgment on this distorted world redeemed |
| M:11.4 | “Can peace be possible in this world?” but instead, “Is it not | impossible that peace be absent here?” |
| M:12.5 | is. He does not suffer either in going or remaining. Sickness is now | impossible to him. |
| M:13.3 | Once this confusion has occurred, it becomes | impossible for the mind to understand that all the “pleasures” of the |
| M:13.7 | anything. For it is here the split with God occurs. A split that is | impossible. A split that cannot happen. Yet a split in which you |
| M:13.7 | you surely will believe, because you have set up a situation that is | impossible. And in this situation the impossible can seem to happen. |
| M:13.7 | set up a situation that is impossible. And in this situation the | impossible can seem to happen. It seems to happen at the “sacrifice” |
| M:17.6 | battle. Accept it as a fact, and then forget it. Do not remember the | impossible odds against you. Do not remember the immensity of the |
| M:17.9 | certain witness that you do believe in it as fact. Now is escape | impossible until you see you have responded to your own |
| M:18.1 | it is their task to escape from what is real. And this can only be | impossible. Reality is changeless. Magic thoughts are but illusions. |
| M:18.1 | but illusions. Otherwise salvation would be only the same age-old | impossible dream in but another form. Yet the dream of salvation has |
| M:19.1 | out. Neither justice nor injustice exists in Heaven, for error is | impossible and correction meaningless. In this world, however, |
| M:19.1 | Spirit's verdict upon the world. Except in His judgment, justice is | impossible, for no one in the world is capable of making only just |
| M:21.3 | for this, this will be given because this will be received. It is | impossible that the prayer of the heart remain unanswered in the |
| M:21.3 | unanswered in the perception of the one who asks. If he asks for the | impossible, if he wants what does not exist or seeks for illusions in |

| M:22.3 | sees fit would merely take the place of God and prove salvation is | impossible. What then is left to heal? The body has become lord of |
| M:24.1 | In the ultimate sense, reincarnation is | impossible. There is no past nor future, and the idea of birth into a |
| M:25.2 | would be little point in trying to teach salvation. It would be | impossible to do so. The limits the world places on communication are |
| M:26.3 | experience of direct union with God. In this world, it is almost | impossible that this endure. It can, perhaps, be won after much |
| M:27.2 | reigns and opposites make endless war. Where there is death is peace | impossible. |

| W1:19.5 | no longer be repeated each day, although it will occasionally be | included as a reminder. Do not forget, however, that random selection |
| W1:42.9 | system in which nothing is lacking that is needed, and nothing is | included that is contradictory or irrelevant. |

| Tx:2.9 | Third, the belief that man can distort the creations of God, | including himself, is accepted. |
| Tx:3.16 | This kind of error is responsible for a host of related errors | including the belief that God rejected man and forced him out of the |
| Tx:4.63 | problem is not one of concentration; it is the belief that no one, | including yourself, is worth consistent effort. Side with me |
| Tx:4.98 | in which the mind is in communication with everything that is real, | including the Soul. To whatever extent you permit this state to be |

| Tx:8.34 | you do not love. Therefore, when you seek to imprison anyone, | including yourself, you do not love him, and you cannot identify with |
| Tx:8.97 | the latter for the martyr. Martyrdom takes many forms, the category | including all doctrines which hold that God demands sacrifices of any |
| Tx:14.31 | anything alone. Seeing with Him will show you that all meaning, | including yours, comes not from double vision but from the gentle |
| Tx:14.65 | I do not know what anything, | including this, means. And so I do not know how to respond to it. And |
| Tx:24.21 | your brother is like you. Not special, but possessed of everything | including you. |
| W1:57.6 | kept hidden. I begin to understand the holiness of all living things | including myself, and their oneness with me. |
| W1:83.7 | and my function remains wholly unaffected by this. Nothing, | including this, can justify the illusion of happiness apart from my |
inclusion (9) | ||
| Tx:1.59 | The specialness of God's Sons does not stem from exclusion but from | inclusion. All my brothers are special. If they believe they are |
| Tx:6.29 | Instead of anger, this arouses love for both because it establishes | inclusion. Perceiving equality, the Holy Spirit perceives equal |
| Tx:6.30 | you are and what you are. It is completely unalterable. It is total | inclusion. You cannot change it now or ever. It is forever true. It |
| Tx:6.30 | create[s] is as true as He is. Its truth lies only in its perfect | inclusion in Him, Who alone is perfect. To deny this in any way is to |
| Tx:6.32 | you can find joy for yourself alone. Prayer is the restatement of | inclusion, directed by the Holy Spirit under the laws of God. God |
| Tx:6.95 | needs no protection. It is in the perfect safety of God. Therefore | inclusion is total and creation is without limit. |
| Tx:14.11 | no end. And you will find ever-increasing confidence in your safe | inclusion in what is for all in everyone you bring within its safety |
| W1:9.7 | It is emphasized again that while complete | inclusion should not be attempted, specific exclusion must be |
| W1:43.7 | the subjects for this phase indiscriminately, without self-directed | inclusion or exclusion. |

| Tx:27.1 | that would combine attack and innocence. Who can combine the wholly | incompatible and make a unity of what can never join? Walk you the |
| W1:135.18 | aim is to select what you approve and disregard what you consider | incompatible with your beliefs of your reality. Yet what remains is |
incomplete (28) | ||
| Tx:4.6 | between the ego and the Soul, so that whatever the ego makes is | incomplete and contradictory. This untenable position is the result |
| Tx:4.100 | your part in the creation, His joy is not complete because yours is | incomplete. And this He does know. He knows it in His own Being and |
| Tx:5.48 | guilt feelings do not help anyone. This distinction is wise though | incomplete. Let us make the distinction a little sharper now. |

| Tx:7.8 | because its being is eternally changeless. It does not change by | increase, because it was forever created to increase. If you perceive |

| Tx:15.68 | We said before that the ego attempts to maintain and | increase guilt, but in such a way that you do not recognize what it |
| Tx:15.88 | the only purpose for which it was given you. Love would always give | increase. Limits are demanded by the ego, representing its demands to |

| Tx:27.89 | When you forgive the world your guilt, you will be free of it. Its | innocence does not demand your guilt, nor does your guiltlessness |

| Tx:28.53 | from the bones of death. Look at the little gap, and you behold the | innocence and emptiness of sin that you will see within yourself when |

| Tx:31.46 | The face of | innocence the concept of the self so proudly wears can tolerate |
| Tx:31.46 | is it not a well-known fact the world deals harshly with defenseless | innocence? No one who makes a picture of himself omits this face, for |
| Tx:31.47 | Beneath the face of | innocence there is a lesson that the concept of the self was made to |

| Tx:9.73 | havoc this makes of your peace of mind, you could not make such an | insane decision. You make it only because you still believe that it |
| Tx:9.95 | god demands because, having made him out of your insanity, he is an | insane idea. He has many forms, but although he may seem like many |
| Tx:9.102 | To interfere with you would be to attack Himself, and God is not | insane. When you denied Him, you were insane. Would you have Him |
| Tx:9.102 | attack Himself, and God is not insane. When you denied Him, you were | insane. Would you have Him share your insanity? God will never cease |
| Tx:10.1 | Either God or the ego is | insane. If you will examine the evidence on both sides fairly, you |
| Tx:10.2 | you made your own father. Make no mistake about this. It sounds | insane when it is stated with perfect honesty, but the ego never |
| Tx:10.2 | never looks upon what it does with perfect honesty. Yet that is its | insane premise, which is carefully hidden in the dark cornerstone of |
| Tx:10.52 | this is what the ego would have you believe. Yet God's Son is not | insane and cannot believe it. Let him but recognize it, and he will |
| Tx:10.52 | Let him but recognize it, and he will not accept it. For only the | insane would choose fear in place of love, and only the insane could |
| Tx:10.52 | For only the insane would choose fear in place of love, and only the | insane could believe that love can be gained by attack. But the sane |
| Tx:10.56 | its witnesses are consistent. The case for insanity is strong to the | insane. For reasoning ends at its beginning, and no thought system |
| Tx:11.29 | and he always tries to handle it by making some sort of | insane “arrangement” with the world. He always perceives this world |
| Tx:11.30 | Son are the world's reality, the real world must be in his mind. His | insane thoughts, too, must be in his mind, but an internal conflict |
| Tx:11.81 | only in a mind that wills to remember and that has relinquished the | insane desire to control reality. You who cannot even control |
| Tx:11.85 | has obscured the Father to you, and it is guilt that has driven you | insane. |
| Tx:11.86 | are deserted. They appear to lose what they love, perhaps the most | insane belief of all. And their bodies wither and gasp and are laid |
| Tx:11.98 | believes in atonement through attack, being fully committed to the | insane notion that attack is salvation. And you who cherish guilt |
| Tx:12.3 | condemning him to death. You do not even suspect this murderous but | insane idea lies hidden there, for the ego's destructive urge is so |
| Tx:12.14 | You have built your whole | insane belief system because you think you would be helpless in God's |
| Tx:12.22 | creation, He could not take it from you. He could but answer your | insane request with a sane answer which would abide with you in your |
| Tx:12.22 | illusions from which you can look back on them and see them as | insane. But seek this place, and you will find it, for love is in you |
| Tx:12.33 | differs greatly. Yet they have one thing in common—they are all | insane. They are made of sights which are not seen and sounds which |

| Tx:13.21 | Insane ideas have no real relationships, for that is why they are | insane. No real relationship can rest on guilt or even hold one spot |
| Tx:13.25 | is a reason for it. For you must learn that guilt is always totally | insane and has no reason. The Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel |
| Tx:13.27 | looked upon him as condemned. The moment that you realize guilt is | insane, wholly unjustified, and wholly without reason, you will not |
| Tx:13.47 | and as well as does the ego, except that His conclusions are not | insane. They take a direction exactly opposite, pointing as clearly |
| Tx:13.50 | system is closed off and wholly separated from the truth. This is an | insane world, and do not underestimate the actual extent of its |
| Tx:13.51 | in the world to teach him that the logic of the world is totally | insane and leads to nothing. Yet in him who made this insane logic, |
| Tx:13.51 | is totally insane and leads to nothing. Yet in him who made this | insane logic, there is One Who knows it leads to nothing, for He |
| Tx:13.91 | trying to teach him guilt instead of love. Give up this frantic and | insane attempt, which cheats you of the joy of living with your God |
| Tx:14.25 | fear. Under each cornerstone of fear on which you have erected your | insane system of belief, the truth lies hidden. Yet you cannot know |
| Tx:14.59 | to imprison the Son of God, a lesson so unthinkable that only the | insane, in deepest sleep, could even dream of it. Can God learn how |
| Tx:15.68 | special relationships, forged out of anger and dedicated to but one | insane belief—that the more anger you invest outside yourself, the |
| Tx:15.71 | In these | insane relationships, the attraction of what you do not want seems to |
| Tx:15.75 | believe that to communicate is to make yourself alone? It is clearly | insane to believe that by communicating you will be abandoned. And |
| Tx:16.65 | love in any special relationship here. For you are no longer wholly | insane, and you would recognize the guilt of self-betrayal for what |
| Tx:16.67 | to the illusion of the beauty and holiness of guilt. Only the wholly | insane could look on death and suffering, sickness and despair and |
| Tx:16.72 | for vengeance on the past. It is completely savage and completely | insane. For the ego remembers everything that you have done which |
| Tx:16.73 | relationship, you are allowing your destruction to be. That this is | insane is obvious. But what is less obvious to you is that the |
| Tx:16.75 | Against the ego's | insane notion of salvation, the Holy Spirit gently lays the holy |
| Tx:17.16 | vengeance, and all relationships into which they enter are totally | insane. Without exception, these relationships have as their purpose |
| Tx:17.31 | its reason as it sees it. It does not realize that it is totally | insane. And you must realize just what this means if you would be |
| Tx:17.31 | realize just what this means if you would be restored to sanity. The | insane protect their thought systems, but they do so insanely. And |
| Tx:17.31 | systems, but they do so insanely. And all their defenses are as | insane as what they are supposed to protect. The separation has |
| Tx:17.31 | nothing in it, no part, no “reason,” and no attribute that is not | insane. And its “protection” is part of it, as insane as the whole. |
| Tx:17.31 | attribute that is not insane. And its “protection” is part of it, as | insane as the whole. The special relationship, which is its chief |
| Tx:17.31 | special relationship, which is its chief defense, must therefore be | insane. |
| Tx:17.32 | delusions. You recognize, at least in general terms, that the ego is | insane. Yet the special relationship still seems to you somehow to be |
| Tx:17.48 | has sanity as its purpose. For now you find yourselves in an | insane relationship, recognized as such in the light of its goal. |
| Tx:17.49 | Has He not been very explicit in His answer? You are not now wholly | insane. Can you deny that He has given you a most explicit statement? |
| Tx:17.73 | Him Who walks with you in every situation. You are no longer wholly | insane, nor no longer alone. For loneliness in God must be a dream. |
| Tx:18.8 | you gently back to the truth and safety within. He brings all your | insane projections and your wild substitutions which you have placed |
| Tx:18.19 | the same. They are your protest against reality and your fixed and | insane idea that you can change it. In your waking dreams, the |
| Tx:18.54 | It is | insane to use the body as the scapegoat for guilt, directing its |
| Tx:18.86 | they are meaningless. From the world of bodies, made by insanity, | insane messages seem to be returned to the mind which made it. And |
| Tx:18.88 | based. Here are all the illusions, all the twisted thoughts, all the | insane attacks, the fury, vengeance, and betrayal that were made to |
| Tx:19.17 | correction, and the belief that punishment is correction is clearly | insane. |
| Tx:19.20 | A major tenet in the ego's | insane religion is that sin is not error but truth, and it is |
| Tx:19.30 | what it is told through it. If it does not obey, the mind is judged | insane. The only power which could change perception is thus kept |
| Tx:19.31 | be split and torn between good and evil—partly sane and partially | insane. For He must have created what wills to destroy Him and has |
| Tx:19.46 | The little | insane wish to get rid of Him Who you invited in and push Him out |
| Tx:19.72 | all of the ego's heavy investment in the body. And it is this | insane relationship which it keeps hidden and yet feeds upon. To you |
| Tx:19.80 | Himself. Where can such opposition lie but in the sick minds of the | insane, dedicated to madness and set against the peace of Heaven? One |
| Tx:19.82 | idea of corruption which can be corrected. For God has answered this | insane idea with His own, an Answer which left Him not and therefore |

| Tx:25.55 | sinners who believe theirs is the way to sanity. But sin is equally | insane within the sight of love, whose gentle eyes would look beyond |

| W1:195.2 | It is insane to offer thanks because of suffering. But it is equally | insane to fail in gratitude to One Who offers you the certain means |
| W1:195.9 | future. Gratitude becomes the single thought we substitute for these | insane perceptions. God has cared for us and calls us Son. Can there |
| W1:196.1 | to attack another is but to attack yourself. You will be free of the | insane belief that to attack a brother saves yourself. And you will |

| W2:I.9 | Himself and be what we would make of Him. And we believed that our | insane desires were the truth. Now we are glad that this is all |
| W2:WIW.2 | Him. Here was perception born, for knowledge could not cause such | insane thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely. Now |
| W2:259.2 | Father, I would not be | insane today. I would not be afraid of love nor seek for refuge in |
| W2:282.1 | would be reached for all the world. This the decision not to be | insane and to accept myself as God Himself, my Father and my Source, |
| W2:325.1 | looked upon, esteemed as real, and guarded as one's own. From | insane wishes comes an insane world. From judgment comes a world |
| W2:325.1 | as real, and guarded as one's own. From insane wishes comes an | insane world. From judgment comes a world condemned. And from |
| W2:WIE.2 | The ego is | insane. In fear it stands beyond the Everywhere, apart from All, in |

| Tx:5.13 | The Holy Spirit, the shared | Inspiration of all the Sonship, induces a kind of perception in which |
| Tx:7.31 | is both an art and a science. It is an art, because it depends on | inspiration in the sense that we have already used the term. |
| Tx:7.31 | on inspiration in the sense that we have already used the term. | Inspiration is the opposite of dispiriting and therefore means to |
| Tx:7.32 | Science is nothing more than an approach to what already is. Like | inspiration it can be misunderstood as magic and will be whenever it |
| Tx:7.33 | Truth can only be recognized and need only be recognized. | Inspiration is of the Spirit, and certainty is of God according to |
| Tx:7.33 | to His laws. Both, therefore, come from the same Source, [because] | inspiration comes from the Voice for God, and certainty comes from |

| Tx:1.38 | consciousness is the state which produces action, though it does not | inspire it. Man is free to believe what he chooses, and what he does |
| Tx:1.42 | 31. Miracles should | inspire gratitude, not awe. Man should thank God for what he really |
| Tx:4.68 | the living God created. Why do you believe it is harder for me to | inspire the dispirited or to stabilize the unstable? I do not believe |
| Tx:6.12 | of the altar is what makes it a church. Any church which does not | inspire love has a hidden altar which is not serving the purpose for |
| Tx:6.33 | you made it, and the Holy Spirit can therefore use it well. He can | inspire perception and lead it toward God by making it parallel to |
| Tx:9.31 | Him with your ears. How, then, can you perceive Him at all? If you | inspire joy, and others react to you with joy even though you are not |

| Tx:2.87 | for which the Atonement was offered. The need for the remedy | inspired its creation. As long as you recognize only the need for the |
| Tx:4.1 | opposite of fatigue. To be fatigued is to be dis-spirited, but to be | inspired is to be in the spirit. To be egocentric is to be |
| Tx:4.1 | be dispirited, but to be Self-centered in the right sense is to be | inspired, or in the Soul. The truly inspired are enlightened and |
| Tx:4.1 | in the right sense is to be inspired, or in the Soul. The truly | inspired are enlightened and cannot abide in darkness. |
| Tx:4.2 | have chosen “to be still and know that I am God.” These words are | inspired because they come from knowledge. If you speak from the ego, |
| Tx:7.1 | process in which you share, and because you share it, you are | inspired to create like God. Yet in creation you are not in |
| Tx:7.46 | of God is wholly real. Healing can be counted on, because it is | inspired by His Voice and is in accord with His laws. Yet if healing |

| Tx:5.70 | the Atonement first. It will also turn back to full creation the | instant it has done so. Having given up its thought disorder, the |
| Tx:7.47 | power for change that a Son of God can recognize his power in one | instant and change the world in the next. That is because by changing |
| Tx:9.65 | see in dreams you think is real as long as you are asleep. Yet the | instant you waken, you know that everything that seemed to happen did |
| Tx:9.67 | You will remember everything the | instant you desire it wholly, for if to desire wholly is to create, |
| Tx:9.82 | Father. He is therefore not eternal and will be unmade for you the | instant you signify your willingness to accept only the eternal. If |
| Tx:10.74 | perception will be translated into knowledge will leave you only an | instant to realize that this judgment is true. |
| Tx:11.28 | lose sight of this, and never allow yourself to believe even for an | instant that there is another answer. For you will surely place |

| Tx:12.65 | is all about him and within him. He must deny the world of pain the | instant he perceives the arms of love around him. And from this point |
| Tx:13.63 | will not leave you asleep. The vision of Christ is given the very | instant that it is perceived. Where everything is clear, it is all |
| Tx:14.29 | Him. Therefore, to Him it is so easy that it was accomplished the | instant it was given Him for you. Do not delay yourselves in your |
| Tx:14.44 | Could you but realize for a single | instant the power of healing that the reflection of God, shining in |
| Tx:14.49 | blots them out. Where there was light, darkness removes it in an | instant, and alternating patterns of light and darkness sweep |
| Tx:14.66 | speak to you. He will take His rightful place in your awareness the | instant you abandon it and offer it to Him. |
| Tx:15.9 | which do not exist. There is no fear in the present when each | instant stands clear and separated from the past, without its shadow |
| Tx:15.9 | from the past, without its shadow reaching out into the future. Each | instant is a clean, untarnished birth, in which the Son of God |
| Tx:15.10 | use of time as a teaching aid to happiness and peace. Take this very | instant, now, and think of it as all there is of time. Nothing can |
| Tx:15.10 | completely free, and wholly without condemnation. From this holy | instant wherein holiness was born again, you will go forth in time |
| Tx:15.11 | without change, yet holiness does not change. Learn from this | instant more than merely hell does not exist. In this redeeming |
| Tx:15.11 | this instant more than merely hell does not exist. In this redeeming | instant lies Heaven. And Heaven will not change, for the birth into |
| Tx:15.11 | no change in Heaven because there is no change in God. In the holy | instant in which you see yourself as bright with freedom, you will |
| Tx:15.12 | to change your mind so completely, ask yourself, “How long is an | instant?” Could you not give so short a time to the Holy Spirit for |
| Tx:15.12 | you how to be willing to give Him this than for Him to use this tiny | instant to offer you the whole of Heaven. In exchange for this |
| Tx:15.12 | tiny instant to offer you the whole of Heaven. In exchange for this | instant, He stands ready to give you the remembrance of eternity. |
| Tx:15.13 | You will never give this holy | instant to the Holy Spirit on behalf of your release while you are |
| Tx:15.13 | unwilling to give it to your brothers on behalf of theirs. For the | instant of holiness is shared, and cannot be yours alone. Remember, |
| Tx:15.13 | Remember, then, when you are tempted to attack a brother, that his | instant of release is yours. Miracles are the instants of release you |
| Tx:15.13 | to offer time to the Holy Spirit for His use of it. How long is an | instant? It is as short for your brother as it is for you. Practice |
| Tx:15.13 | for your brother as it is for you. Practice giving this blessed | instant of freedom to all who are enslaved by time and thus make time |
| Tx:15.13 | make time their friend for them. The Holy Spirit gives their blessed | instant to you through your giving it. As you give it, He offers it |
| Tx:15.14 | from guilt. You must be holy if you offer holiness. How long is an | instant? As long as it takes to reestablish perfect sanity, perfect |
| Tx:15.15 | for. Holiness lies not in time but in eternity. There never was an | instant in which God's Son could lose his purity. His changeless |
| Tx:15.15 | not. And so it is no longer time at all. For, caught in the single | instant of the eternal sanctity of God's creation, it is transformed |
| Tx:15.15 | of God's creation, it is transformed into forever. Give the eternal | instant that eternity may be remembered for you in that shining |
| Tx:15.15 | instant that eternity may be remembered for you in that shining | instant of perfect release. Offer the miracle of the holy instant |
| Tx:15.15 | shining instant of perfect release. Offer the miracle of the holy | instant through the Holy Spirit and leave His giving it to you to Him. |
| Tx:15.16 | by time. No more are you. For unless God is bound, you cannot be. An | instant offered to the Holy Spirit is offered to God on your behalf, |
| Tx:15.16 | to the Holy Spirit is offered to God on your behalf, and in that | instant you will awaken gently in Him. In the blessed instant, you |
| Tx:15.16 | and in that instant you will awaken gently in Him. In the blessed | instant, you will let go all your past learning, and the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:15.17 | Do not be concerned with time and fear not the | instant of holiness which will remove all fear. For the instant of |
| Tx:15.17 | fear not the instant of holiness which will remove all fear. For the | instant of peace is eternal because it is wholly without fear. It |
| Tx:15.18 | will forever be. All that you have, you have forever. The blessed | instant reaches out to encompass time, as God extends Himself to |
| Tx:15.18 | its weakness, do not perceive the Source of strength. In the holy | instant, you will unchain all your brothers and refuse to support |
| Tx:15.19 | complete release. And because of this, you have not given one single | instant completely to the Holy Spirit. For when you have, you will be |
| Tx:15.20 | through the Holy Spirit. And then you will doubt no more. The holy | instant has not yet happened to you. Yet it will, and you will |
| Tx:15.20 | in any other way. You can practice the mechanics of the holy | instant and will learn much from doing so. Yet its shining and |
| Tx:15.20 | by its own vision, you cannot supply. And here it is, all in this | instant, complete, accomplished, and given wholly. |
| Tx:15.21 | Start now to practice your little part in separating out the holy | instant. You will receive very specific instructions as you go along. |
| Tx:15.21 | it is the practice of the power of God in you. Use it but for one | instant, and you will never deny it again. Who can deny the Presence |
| Tx:15.35 | you would rather delay the recognition that His Will is so. The holy | instant is this one and every one. The one you want it to be it is. |
| Tx:15.36 | therefore rest upon your willingness to let all littleness go. The | instant in which magnitude will dawn upon you is but as far away as |
| Tx:15.38 | your Father has placed Himself? This you will recognize in the holy | instant in which you willingly and gladly give over every plan but |
| Tx:15.38 | you have been willing to meet its conditions. You can claim the holy | instant any time and anywhere you want it. In your practice, try to |
| Tx:15.38 | for finding magnitude in littleness. It is not there. Use the holy | instant only to recognize that you alone cannot know where it is and |
| Tx:15.39 | I stand within the holy | instant, as clear as you would have me. And the extent to which you |
| Tx:15.39 | be willing to accept me is the measure of the time in which the holy | instant will be yours. I call to you to make the holy instant yours |
| Tx:15.39 | which the holy instant will be yours. I call to you to make the holy | instant yours at once, for the release from littleness in the mind of |
| Tx:15.40 | You could live forever in the holy | instant, beginning now and reaching to eternity, but for a very |
| Tx:15.40 | to let it go. The simple reason, simply stated, is this: The holy | instant is a time in which you receive and give perfect |
| Tx:15.41 | do that is to deny the perfect communication that makes the holy | instant what it is. You believe that it is possible to harbor |
| Tx:15.42 | cannot come into a mind that has decided to oppose it. For the holy | instant is given and received with equal willingness, being the |
| Tx:15.43 | The necessary condition for the holy | instant does not require that you have no thoughts which are not |
| Tx:15.43 | you would keep. Innocence is not of your making. It is given you the | instant you would have it. Yet it would not be Atonement if there |
| Tx:15.45 | The holy | instant is the Holy Spirit's most useful learning device for teaching |
| Tx:15.47 | you more than others? The past has taught you this. Yet the holy | instant teaches you it is not so. |
| Tx:15.52 | knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the holy | instant no one is special, for your personal needs intrude on no one |
| Tx:15.52 | would you see any separation between yourself and them. In the holy | instant, you see in each relationship what it will be when you |
| Tx:15.53 | having always known you exactly as He knows you now. The holy | instant parallels His knowing by bringing all perception out of the |
| Tx:15.53 | God. The Holy Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the holy | instant, free of the past, you see that love is in you, and you have |
| Tx:15.54 | All your relationships are blessed in the holy | instant because the blessing is not limited. In the holy instant, the |
| Tx:15.54 | in the holy instant because the blessing is not limited. In the holy | instant, the Sonship gains as one. And united in your blessing, it |
| Tx:15.54 | Holy Spirit bring to you those who are seeking you. Yet in the holy | instant, you unite directly with God, and all your brothers join in |
| Tx:15.55 | With love in you, you have no need except to extend it. In the holy | instant, there is no conflict of needs, for there is only one. For |
| Tx:15.55 | there is no conflict of needs, for there is only one. For the holy | instant reaches to eternity and to the Mind of God. And it is only |
| Tx:15.57 | as it is in you, or it would be a limited gift to you. In the holy | instant, we share our faith in God's Son because we recognize |
| Tx:15.60 | and so no one is aware that perfect love is in him. In the holy | instant, you recognize the idea of love in you and unite this idea |
| Tx:15.60 | it. By holding it within itself, there was no loss. The holy | instant thus becomes a lesson in how to hold all of your brothers in |
| Tx:15.61 | In the holy | instant, the laws of God prevail, and only they have meaning. The |
| Tx:15.61 | it is impossible that he be bound or limited in any way. In this | instant, he is as free as God would have him be. For the instant he |
| Tx:15.61 | In this instant, he is as free as God would have him be. For the | instant he refuses to be bound, he is not bound. |
| Tx:15.62 | In the holy | instant, nothing happens that has not always been. Only the veil that |
| Tx:15.62 | because He offered it to me and I accepted it. Fear not the holy | instant will be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me the |
| Tx:15.62 | no need that you perceive obscure your need of this. For in the holy | instant, you will recognize the only need the aspects of the Son of |
| Tx:15.64 | In the holy | instant God is remembered, and the language of communication with all |
| Tx:15.64 | remembered together, as is truth. There is no exclusion in the holy | instant because the past is gone and with it goes the whole basis for |
| Tx:15.77 | that it can overcome even this without fear. It is through the holy | instant that what seems impossible is accomplished, making it evident |
| Tx:15.77 | making it evident that it is not impossible. In the holy | instant, guilt holds no attraction, since communication has been |
| Tx:15.79 | The holy | instant does not replace the need for learning, for the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:15.79 | the Holy Spirit must not leave you as your Teacher until the holy | instant has extended far beyond time. For a teaching assignment such |
| Tx:15.80 | desire with all your hearts. Let us join together in making the holy | instant all that there is by desiring that it be all that there is. |
| Tx:15.82 | Think but an | instant on this: God gave the Sonship to you to ensure your perfect |
| Tx:15.85 | to God. It is this shift in vision which is accomplished in the holy | instant. Yet it is needful for you to learn just what this shift |
| Tx:15.87 | have no limits, having been established by God. In the holy | instant, where the Great Rays replace the body in awareness, the |
| Tx:15.91 | in it, you will learn you have no need of a body at all. In the holy | instant there are no bodies, and you experience only the attraction |
| Tx:15.91 | of God. Accepting it as undivided, you join Him wholly in an | instant. [For you would place no limits on your union with Him.] The |
| Tx:15.93 | The holy | instant is truly the time of Christ. For in this liberating instant, |
| Tx:15.93 | The holy instant is truly the time of Christ. For in this liberating | instant, no guilt is laid upon the Son of God, and his unlimited |
| Tx:15.107 | In the holy | instant, the condition of love is met, for minds are joined without |
| Tx:15.112 | There is much to do, and we have been long delayed. Accept the holy | instant as this year is born and take your place, so long left |
| Tx:16.34 | Seen in these terms, no one would hesitate. But conflict enters the | instant the choice seems to be one between illusions, for this choice |
| Tx:16.60 | which the Holy Spirit asks your help if you would have His. The holy | instant is His most helpful tool in protecting you from the |
| Tx:16.68 | it. Wait no longer, for the love of God and you. And may the holy | instant speed you on the way, as it will surely do if you but let it |
| Tx:16.69 | relationship which still attracts you, enter with Him into a holy | instant and there let Him release you. He needs only your willingness |
| Tx:16.75 | insane notion of salvation, the Holy Spirit gently lays the holy | instant. We said before that the Holy Spirit must teach through |
| Tx:16.75 | through comparisons and uses opposites to point to truth. The holy | instant is the opposite of the ego's fixed belief in salvation |
| Tx:16.75 | belief in salvation through vengeance for the past. In the holy | instant, it is accepted that the past is gone, and with its passing |
| Tx:16.76 | For a time you may attempt to bring illusions into the holy | instant to hinder your full awareness of the complete difference in |
| Tx:16.76 | truth and illusion. Yet you will not attempt this long. In the holy | instant, the power of the Holy Spirit will prevail because you joined |
| Tx:16.76 | prevent you from keeping the experience in your mind. Yet the holy | instant is eternal, and your illusions of time will not prevent the |
| Tx:16.77 | You will receive because it is His Will to give. He gave the holy | instant to be given you, and it is impossible that you receive it |
| Tx:16.77 | When He willed that His Son be free, His Son was free. In the holy | instant is His reminder that His Son will always be exactly as he was |
| Tx:16.78 | been forgiven, for it is you who offered them illusions. In the holy | instant, this is done for you in time to bring to you the true |
| Tx:16.80 | Seek and find his message in the holy | instant, where all illusions are forgiven. From there the miracle |
| Tx:17.36 | That is why the holy | instant is so important in the defense of truth. The truth itself |
| Tx:17.37 | The holy | instant is a miniature of Heaven, sent you from Heaven. It is a |
| Tx:17.37 | willingness to focus all your attention on the picture. The holy | instant is a miniature of eternity. It is a picture of timelessness, |
| Tx:17.37 | of the ego lies in its gifts, so the whole of Heaven lies in this | instant, borrowed from eternity and set in time for you. |
| Tx:17.42 | with Him lies in our relationship to one another. The holy | instant shines alike on all relationships, for in it they are one. |
| Tx:17.43 | The holy relationship is the expression of the holy | instant in living in this world. Like everything about salvation, the |
| Tx:17.43 | in living in this world. Like everything about salvation, the holy | instant is a practical device, witnessed to by its results. The holy |
| Tx:17.43 | instant is a practical device, witnessed to by its results. The holy | instant never fails. The experience of it is always felt. Yet without |
| Tx:17.52 | in joyous echo of your choice. You have joined with many in the holy | instant, and they have joined with you. Think not your choice will |
| Tx:17.53 | thanks and gratitude, you make yourselves unable to express the holy | instant, and thus you lose sight of it. |
| Tx:17.54 | The experience of an | instant, however compelling it may be, is easily forgotten if you |
| Tx:17.54 | gracious in your awareness of time but not concealed within it. The | instant remains. But where are you? To give thanks to each other is |
| Tx:17.54 | are you? To give thanks to each other is to appreciate the holy | instant and thus enable its results to be accepted and shared. To |
| Tx:17.54 | to be accepted and shared. To attack each other is not to lose the | instant but to make it powerless in its effects. You have received |
| Tx:17.54 | but to make it powerless in its effects. You have received the holy | instant, but you have established a condition in which you cannot use |
| Tx:17.56 | given to each other, you will also accept the effects of the holy | instant and use them to correct all your mistakes and free you from |
| Tx:17.74 | The holy | instant is nothing more than a special case or an extreme example of |
| Tx:17.74 | left unused, that faith might answer to the call of truth. The holy | instant is the shining example, the clear and unequivocal |
| Tx:17.76 | Would you not want to make a holy | instant of every situation? For such is the gift of faith, freely |
| Tx:18.17 | dream cannot escape its origin. Anger and fear pervade it, and in an | instant, the illusion of satisfaction is invaded by the illusion of |
| Tx:18.25 | are afraid, you have stepped back. Let us then join quickly in an | instant of light, and it will be enough to remind you that your goal |
| Tx:18.28 | Each | instant that we spend together will teach you that this goal is |
| Tx:18.30 | has been brought to light. Carry it back to darkness from the holy | instant to which you brought it. We are made whole in our desire to |
| Tx:18.32 | The holy | instant is the result of your determination to be holy. It is the |
| Tx:18.32 | adds the greatness and the might. He joins with you to make the holy | instant far greater than you can understand. It is your realization |
| Tx:18.33 | came. If you could come without them, you would not need the holy | instant. Come to it not in arrogance, assuming that you must achieve |
| Tx:18.33 | achieve the state its coming brings with it. The miracle of the holy | instant lies in your willingness to let it be what it is. And in your |
| Tx:18.34 | greatness, which comes not of you. Your difficulty with the holy | instant arises from your fixed conviction that you are not worthy of |
| Tx:18.35 | The holy | instant does not come from your little willingness alone. It is |
| Tx:18.36 | merely receive the answer as it is given. In preparing for the holy | instant, do not attempt to make yourself holy to be ready to receive |
| Tx:18.38 | add if you prepare yourself for love. The preparation for the holy | instant belongs to Him Who gives it. Release yourselves to Him Whose |
| Tx:18.39 | It is this that makes the holy | instant so easy and so natural. You make it difficult because you |
| Tx:18.40 | it, but you will remain quite unaware of it. If you believe the holy | instant is difficult for you, it is because you have become the |
| Tx:18.41 | truth and illusion, the Atonement would have no meaning. The holy | instant, your holy relationship, the Holy Spirit's teaching, and all |
| Tx:18.42 | Never approach the holy | instant after you have tried to remove all fear and hatred from your |
| Tx:18.43 | Through your holy relationship, reborn and blessed in every holy | instant which you do not arrange, thousands will rise to Heaven with |
| Tx:18.46 | Spirit your willingness in spite of fear to let Him exchange this | instant for the holy one which you would rather have. He will never |
| Tx:18.46 | as this is impossible, so is it equally impossible that the holy | instant come to either of you without the other. And it will come to |
| Tx:18.48 | I desire this holy | instant for myself that I may share it with my brother, whom I love. |
| Tx:18.48 | it is wholly possible for us to share it now. And so I choose this | instant as the one to offer to the Holy Spirit, that His blessing may |
| Tx:18.61 | restrictions, you experience much of what happens in the holy | instant; the lifting of the barriers of time and space, the sudden |
| Tx:18.62 | place with your desire for it is the irresistible appeal the holy | instant holds. It calls to you to be yourself within its safe |
| Tx:18.64 | still more, but there is one thing you have never done—not for one | instant have you utterly forgotten the body. It has faded at times |
| Tx:18.64 | disappeared. You are not asked to let this happen for more than an | instant, yet it is in this instant that the miracle of Atonement |
| Tx:18.64 | asked to let this happen for more than an instant, yet it is in this | instant that the miracle of Atonement happens. Afterwards, you will |
| Tx:18.64 | you will see the body again, but never quite the same. And every | instant that you spend without awareness of it gives you a different |
| Tx:18.65 | At no single | instant does the body exist at all. It is always remembered or |
| Tx:18.65 | Time controls it entirely, for sin is never present. In any single | instant, the attraction of guilt would be experienced as pain and |
| Tx:18.66 | It is impossible to accept the holy | instant without reservation unless just for an instant you are |
| Tx:18.66 | to accept the holy instant without reservation unless just for an | instant you are willing to see no past or future. You cannot prepare |
| Tx:18.66 | for it without placing it in the future. Release is given you the | instant you desire it. Many have spent a lifetime in preparation and |
| Tx:18.67 | but in means. A holy relationship is a means of saving time. One | instant spent together restores the universe to both of you. You are |
| Tx:18.68 | of allegiance, a truly undivided loyalty. Believe it for just one | instant, and you will accomplish more than is given to a century of |
| Tx:18.80 | of Heaven with all the love of its Creator shining upon it. The holy | instant is your invitation to love, to enter into your bleak and |
| Tx:18.81 | no barriers which would interfere with its glad coming. In the holy | instant, you ask of love only what it offers everyone, neither less |
| Tx:18.97 | the darkness and gently placed before the gates of Heaven. The holy | instant in which you were united is but the messenger of love, sent |
| Tx:19.11 | from yours. Each one appears just as he is perceived in the holy | instant, united in your purpose to be released from guilt. You saw |
| Tx:19.14 | In the holy | instant, you stand before the altar God has raised unto Himself and |
| Tx:19.34 | not hidden. You will be healed of sin and all its ravages the | instant that you give it no power over each other. And you will help |
| Tx:19.35 | In the holy | instant, you will see the smile of heaven shining on both of you. And |
| Tx:19.35 | union Heaven has smiled upon. Your perception was healed in the holy | instant Heaven gave you. Forget what you have seen and raise your |
| Tx:19.55 | and at which everyone is welcomed as an honored guest. And in a holy | instant, grace is said by everyone together as they join in |
| Tx:19.98 | and tremble not. You will be ready. Let us join together in a holy | instant, here in this place where the purpose given in a holy instant |
| Tx:19.98 | a holy instant, here in this place where the purpose given in a holy | instant has led you. And let us join in faith that He Who brought us |
| Tx:20.25 | in darkness they remember not the light, do not leap up in joy the | instant they are made free. It takes a while for them to understand |
| Tx:20.42 | You look upon each holy | instant as a different point in time. It never changes. All that it |
| Tx:20.52 | isolation which seems to be what it is not. No more than that. The | instant that the mad idea of making your relationship with God unholy |
| Tx:20.52 | all your relationships were made meaningless. In that unholy | instant, time was born and bodies made to house the mad idea and give |
| Tx:20.52 | For what could house this mad idea against reality but for an | instant? |
| Tx:20.53 | must disappear and leave no trace behind their going. The unholy | instant of their seeming power is frail as is a snowflake, but |
| Tx:20.53 | Is this the substitute you want for the eternal blessing of the holy | instant and its unlimited beneficence? Is the malevolence of the |
| Tx:20.53 | and so invested in a false attraction, your preference to the holy | instant which offers you peace and understanding? Then lay aside the |
| Tx:20.54 | smile and tender blessing it offers to its own. Here the unholy | instant is exchanged in gladness for the holy one of safe return. |
| Tx:20.55 | a tiny spot of space and time, beholden unto death and given but an | instant in which to sigh and grieve and die in honor of its master. |
| Tx:20.55 | to sigh and grieve and die in honor of its master. And this unholy | instant seems to be life; an instant of despair, a tiny island of dry |
| Tx:20.55 | in honor of its master. And this unholy instant seems to be life; an | instant of despair, a tiny island of dry sand, bereft of water and |
| Tx:20.56 | Here it is given him to choose to spend this | instant paying tribute to the body or let himself be given freedom |
| Tx:20.56 | or let himself be given freedom from it. Here he can accept the holy | instant, offered him to replace the unholy one he chose before. And |
| Tx:20.56 | this may still be fearful, but you are not immobilized. The holy | instant is of greater value now to you than its unholy seeming |
| Tx:20.62 | the ego tries to make the unholy relationship seem real. The unholy | instant is the time of bodies. But the purpose here is sin. It cannot |
| Tx:20.63 | unholy relationships with other bodies, serving the cause of sin an | instant before he dies. |
| Tx:20.77 | who is there who could refuse what must come after? Think but an | instant just on this—you can behold the holiness God gave His Son. |
| Tx:21.18 | see goes with it. Never was so much given for so little. In the holy | instant is this exchange effected and maintained. Here is the world |
| Tx:21.23 | Be willing for an | instant to leave your altars free of what you placed upon them, and |
| Tx:21.23 | upon them, and what is really there you cannot fail to see. The holy | instant is not an instant of creation but of recognition. For |
| Tx:21.23 | is really there you cannot fail to see. The holy instant is not an | instant of creation but of recognition. For recognition comes of |
| Tx:21.28 | other and separate from your Father, you made in secret, and the | instant of release has come to you. All its effects are gone because |
| Tx:21.37 | given you is more than anything that stands this side of Heaven. The | instant for its recognition is at hand. Join your awareness to what |
| Tx:21.53 | there since the need for Him arose and was fulfilled in the same | instant. Such would your reason tell you if you listened. Yet such is |
| Tx:21.65 | you to change his whole mind, which is one with you, in just an | instant. And any instant serves to bring complete correction of his |
| Tx:21.65 | his whole mind, which is one with you, in just an instant. And any | instant serves to bring complete correction of his errors and make |
| Tx:21.65 | to bring complete correction of his errors and make him whole. The | instant that you choose to let yourself be healed, in that same |
| Tx:21.65 | The instant that you choose to let yourself be healed, in that same | instant is his whole salvation seen as complete with yours. Reason is |
| Tx:21.67 | be given you to give what It has given and gives still. Spend but an | instant in the glad acceptance of what is given you to give your |
| Tx:21.90 | What is the holy | instant but God's appeal to you to recognize what He has given you? |
| Tx:22.14 | it through awareness older than perception and yet reborn in just an | instant. For what is time to what was always so? Think what that |
| Tx:22.14 | an instant. For what is time to what was always so? Think what that | instant brought—the recognition that the “something else” you |
| Tx:23.40 | your foot upon the twisted stairway that leads from Heaven. Yet any | instant it is possible to have all this undone. How can you know |
| Tx:23.46 | not lingered there in cowering hope because the guns are stilled an | instant and the fear that haunts the place of death is not apparent, |
| Tx:24.26 | it for himself? For it is sure he would receive it wholly the | instant that he gave it so. And thus his secret guilt would |
| Tx:24.38 | your reality not real but just a dream of specialness which lasts an | instant, crumbling into dust. |
| Tx:24.43 | the sightless, unlit but by the shifting tiny gleams that spark an | instant from the fireflies of sin and then go out, to lead the other |
| Tx:25.26 | and the sight of perfect sinlessness. Nothing arises but is met with | instant and complete forgiveness. |
| Tx:25.27 | Nothing remains an | instant to obscure the sinlessness that shines unchanged beyond the |
| Tx:25.27 | yet no one has entered it alone. [Nor need he stay more than an | instant.] For he has come with Heaven's Help within him ready to lead |
| Tx:25.31 | to you will make this choice your future? For you make it now, the | instant when all time becomes a means to reach a goal. Make then your |
| Tx:25.48 | did God appoint to be the means for his salvation from the very | instant that the choice was made. His special sin was made his |
| Tx:26.5 | become a treasure house as rich and limitless as Heaven itself. No | instant passes here in which your brother's holiness cannot be seen, |
| Tx:26.7 | Yet every | instant can you be reborn and given life again. His holiness gives |
| Tx:26.8 | eternally and everywhere. He is the same forever—born again each | instant, untouched by time, and far beyond the reach of any sacrifice |
| Tx:26.32 | it. And what He would replace has been replaced. Time lasted but an | instant in your mind, with no effect upon eternity. And so is all |
| Tx:26.32 | one and all of them that came within the first. And in that tiny | instant time was gone, for that was all it ever was. What God gave |
| Tx:26.33 | live in what is past. Each thing you look upon you saw but for an | instant, long ago before its unreality gave way to truth. Not one |
| Tx:26.34 | The tiny | instant you would keep and make eternal passed away in Heaven too |
| Tx:26.35 | or thought, in every judgment, and in all belief in sin, is that one | instant still called back, as if it could be made again in time. You |
| Tx:26.37 | is gone and cannot be returned to you? And do you want that fearful | instant kept, when Heaven seemed to disappear and God was feared and |
| Tx:26.39 | gone by? [This course will teach you only what is now.] A dreadful | instant in a distant past, now perfectly corrected, is of no concern |
| Tx:26.39 | power to keep you in a place of death, a vault God's Son entered an | instant, to be instantly restored unto His Father's perfect Love. And |
| Tx:26.40 | that God created is as free as God created him. He was reborn the | instant that he chose to die instead of live. And will you not |
| Tx:26.42 | Each day and every minute in each day and every | instant that each minute holds, you but relive the single instant |
| Tx:26.42 | and every instant that each minute holds, you but relive the single | instant when the time of terror was replaced by love. And so you die |
| Tx:26.42 | from birth to death and on to life again, a repetition of an | instant gone by long ago, which cannot be relived. And all of time is |
| Tx:26.56 | within Itself? There is no sin. And every miracle is possible the | instant that the Son of God perceives his wishes and the Will of God |
| Tx:26.63 | on the Son of God. Deny him not, that you may be released. Each | instant is the Son of God reborn, until he chooses not to die again. |
| Tx:26.63 | he chooses death instead of what his Father wills for him. Yet every | instant offers life to him because his Father wills that he should |
| Tx:27.21 | balance in the sacrifice. How could the Holy Spirit be deterred an | instant, even less, to reason with an argument for sickness such as |
| Tx:27.34 | any kind. For you will give it overwhelming preference. Nor delay an | instant in deciding that it is the only one you want. It does not |
| Tx:27.37 | state of mind in which the answer is already there. Such is the holy | instant. It is here that all your problems should be brought and |
| Tx:27.41 | want an honest answer where the conflict ends. Only within the holy | instant can an honest question honestly be asked. And from the |
| Tx:27.42 | is preserved intact because it gave the answer to itself. The holy | instant is the interval in which the mind is still enough to hear an |
| Tx:27.43 | question, though they leave the first unanswered. In the holy | instant, you can bring the question to the answer and receive the |
| Tx:27.44 | forth because of what it is. It is its nature to extend itself the | instant it is born. And it is born the instant it is offered and |
| Tx:27.44 | nature to extend itself the instant it is born. And it is born the | instant it is offered and received. No one can ask another to be |
| Tx:27.45 | be no need for healing then. But it does mean, if only for an | instant, you love without attack. An instant is sufficient. Miracles |
| Tx:27.45 | it does mean, if only for an instant, you love without attack. An | instant is sufficient. Miracles wait not on time. |
| Tx:27.46 | The holy | instant is the miracle's abiding-place. From there each one is born |
| Tx:27.46 | where a miracle has come to heal. And nothing more than just one | instant of your love without attack is necessary that all this occur. |
| Tx:27.46 | love without attack is necessary that all this occur. In that one | instant are you healed, and in that single instant is all healing |
| Tx:27.46 | this occur. In that one instant are you healed, and in that single | instant is all healing done. |
| Tx:27.47 | What stands apart from you when you accept the blessing that the holy | instant brings? Be not afraid of blessing, for the One Who blesses |
| Tx:27.47 | of you on your behalf. A dying world asks only that you rest an | instant from attack upon yourself, that it be healed. |
| Tx:27.48 | Come to the holy | instant and be healed, for nothing that is there received is left |
| Tx:27.53 | understand that you have benefited from it. What occurred within the | instant which love entered in without attack will stay with you |
| Tx:27.61 | that you may demonstrate the healing of the world. The holy | instant will replace all sin if you but carry its effects with you. |
| Tx:27.72 | illusions and of fear, the time of terror and of ancient hate, the | instant of disaster, all are here. Here is the cause of unreality. |
| Tx:27.80 | to figures in a dream unless he sees them as if they were real? The | instant that he sees them as they are, they have no more effects on |
| Tx:27.85 | idle dream in which this could occur,” and you will leave the holy | instant with your laughter and your brother's joined with His. |
| Tx:28.11 | The miracle comes quietly into the mind that stops an | instant and is still. It reaches gently from that quiet time, and |
| Tx:28.12 | He to Whom time is given offers thanks for every quiet | instant given Him. For in that instant is His memory allowed to offer |
| Tx:28.12 | given offers thanks for every quiet instant given Him. For in that | instant is His memory allowed to offer all its treasures to the Son |
| Tx:28.12 | and Him and lets Them enter where They would abide. For in that | instant does the Son of God do nothing that would make himself afraid. |
| Tx:28.15 | to allow the memory of God to flow across it, making it a bridge an | instant will suffice to reach beyond? For God has closed it with |
| Tx:28.63 | be sick. All miracles are based upon this choice and given you the | instant it is made. No forms of sickness are immune because the |
| Tx:29.9 | What toys or trinkets in the gap could serve to hold you back an | instant from His love? Would you allow the body to say “no” to |
| Tx:30.45 | shine through all eternity. There was no time it was not there; no | instant when its light grew dimmer or less perfect ever was. |
| Tx:31.12 | Let us be still an | instant and forget all things we ever learned, all thoughts we had, |
| Tx:31.20 | Then let us wait an | instant and be still, forgetting everything we thought we heard; |
| Tx:31.22 | Be very still an | instant. Come without all thought of what you ever learned before and |
| Tx:31.24 | An | instant spent without your old ideas of who your great companion is |
| Tx:31.63 | is doomed to suffering and loss. And no one is exactly as he was an | instant previous, nor will he be the same as he is now an instant |
| Tx:31.63 | he was an instant previous, nor will he be the same as he is now an | instant hence. Who could have trust where so much change is seen, for |
| Tx:31.77 | meet or look upon, not knowing who they are, all those you saw an | instant and forgot, and those you knew a long while since, and those |
| W1:33.5 | Remember to apply today's idea the | instant you are aware of distress. It may be necessary to take a |
| W1:41.7 | of practice as we go along. But it will never fail completely, and | instant success is possible. |
| W1:48.3 | remembered God and let His strength take the place of yours. The | instant you are willing to do this, there is indeed nothing to fear. |
| W1:98.11 | with you each practice period you share with Him, exchanging every | instant of the time you offer Him for timelessness and peace. |
| W1:128.4 | hold you back. Nothing is here to cherish. Nothing here is worth one | instant of delay and pain, one moment of uncertainty and doubt. The |
| W1:135.20 | and with joy which constantly increases as this life becomes a holy | instant, set in time but heeding only immortality. Let no defenses |
| W1:136.8 | you suffering. It is a choice you make, a plan you lay when for an | instant truth arises in your own deluded mind and all your world |
| W1:136.21 | identity which will attack the body, for the mind is sick. Give | instant remedy should this occur by not allowing your defensiveness |
| W1:137.11 | become the instruments of healing. Nor does time elapse between the | instant they are healed and all the grace of healing it is given them |
| W1:153.8 | minds, and we mistook the figures in it for the Son of God, its tiny | instant for eternity. |
| W1:156.6 | dream, not frightening, ridiculous perhaps, but who would waste an | instant in approach to God Himself for such a senseless whim? |
| W1:157.2 | the highest reaches it can possibly attain. It leaves us there an | instant and we go beyond it, sure of our direction and our only goal. |
| W1:157.9 | The vision of His face will stay with you, but there will be an | instant which transcends all vision, even this, the holiest. This you |
| W1:157.9 | Yet the vision speaks of your remembrance of what you knew that | instant and will surely know again. |
| W1:159.10 | can be made from death to life, from hopelessness to hope. Let us an | instant dream with Him. His dream awakens us to truth. His vision |
| W1:164.1 | The present is the only time there is. And so today, this | instant, now, we come to look upon what is forever there—not in our |
| W1:165.2 | you. It left you not, nor have you ever been apart from It an | instant. It belongs to you. By It you live. It is your Source of |
| W1:167.10 | form today. Nor will we let imagined opposites to life abide even an | instant where the thought of life eternal has been set by God Himself. |
| W1:168.4 | will disappear, and vision first will come with knowledge but an | instant later. For in grace you see a light that covers all the world |
| W1:168.4 | the light as theirs. What now remains that Heaven be delayed an | instant longer? What remains undone when your forgiveness rests on |
| W1:169.12 | timelessness and brought a clear reflection of the unity he felt an | instant back to bless the world? How could you finally attain to it |
| W1:169.13 | Be grateful to return, as you were glad to go an | instant and accept the gifts that grace provided you. You carry them |
| W1:181.3 | while. We do not care about our future goals, and what we saw an | instant previous has no concern for us within this interval of time |
| W1:181.8 | to block the vision of our sinlessness, we seek but for surcease an | instant from the misery the focus upon sin will bring and, |
| W1:181.10 | we ask for now. Our sinlessness is but the Will of God. This | instant is our willing one with His. |
| W1:182.8 | When you are still an | instant, when the world recedes from you, when valueless ideas cease |
| W1:182.8 | He calls to you that you will not resist Him longer. In that | instant, He will take you to His home, and you will stay with Him in |
| W1:185.1 | these words is everything. If you could but mean them for just an | instant, there would be no further sorrow possible for you in any |
| W1:186.9 | blow across his mind like windswept leaves that form a patterning an | instant, break apart to group again, and scamper off. Or like mirages |
| W1:193.14 | Do not try to hold it off another day, another minute, or another | instant. Time was made for this. Use it today for what its purpose |
| W1:194.3 | In no one | instant is depression felt or pain experienced or loss perceived. In |
| W1:194.3 | is depression felt or pain experienced or loss perceived. In no one | instant sorrow can be set upon a throne and worshiped faithfully. In |
| W1:194.3 | sorrow can be set upon a throne and worshiped faithfully. In no one | instant can one even die. And so each instant given unto God in |
| W1:194.3 | faithfully. In no one instant can one even die. And so each | instant given unto God in passing, with the next one given Him |
| W1:194.5 | from its bequest of grief and misery, of pain and loss, becomes the | instant in which time escapes the bondage of illusions where it runs |
| W1:194.5 | where it runs its pitiless, inevitable course. Then is each | instant, which was slave to time, transformed into a holy instant |
| W1:194.5 | is each instant, which was slave to time, transformed into a holy | instant when the light that was kept hidden in God's Son is freed to |
| W1:196.4 | would seem to need a thousand years can easily be done in just one | instant by the grace of God. |
| W1:196.10 | There is an | instant in which terror seems to grip your mind so wholly that escape |
| W1:196.11 | Now for an | instant is a murderer perceived within you, eager for your death, |
| W1:196.11 | for you until the time when it can kill at last. Yet in this | instant is the time as well in which salvation comes. For fear of God |
| W1:196.11 | in His Love, calling Him Father and yourself His Son. Pray that the | instant may be soon—today. Step back from fear and make advance to |
| W1:196.12 | no thought of God that does not go with you to help you reach that | instant and to go beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. When the |
| W1:198.13 | the Word of God alone remains upon it. Only that can be perceived an | instant longer. Then are symbols done and everything you ever thought |
| W1:198.14 | know the Father? In this vision of the Son, so brief that not an | instant stands between this single sight and timelessness itself, you |
| W1:200.10 | up and on toward Heaven, with the body's eyes but serving for an | instant longer now. Peace is already recognized at last, and you can |
| W1:202.1 | I will be still a moment and go home. Why would I choose to stay an | instant more where I do not belong, when God Himself has given me His |
| W2:227.1 | feet of truth, to be removed forever from my mind. This is my holy | instant of release. Father, I know my will is one with Yours. |
| W2:WS.2 | The thought of peace was given to God's Son the | instant that his mind had thought of war. There was no need for such |
| W2:WS.5 | is returned, that time is almost over, and God's Son has but an | instant more to wait until his Father is remembered, dreams are done, |
| W2:234.1 | we have reached again the holy peace we never left. Merely a tiny | instant has elapsed between eternity and timelessness. So brief the |
| W2:241.1 | today! It is a time of special celebration. For today holds out the | instant to the darkened world where its release is set. The day has |
| W2:270.1 | dreams be brought to truth, and waits expectantly the one remaining | instant more of time, which ends forever as Your memory returns to |
| W2:271.1 | Each day, each hour, every | instant, I am choosing what I want to look upon, the sounds I want to |
| W2:285.1 | they have been sent by me. And I will ask for only joyous things the | instant I accept my holiness. For what would be the use of pain to |
| W2:290.1 | my mind to be deceived by the belief the dream I made is real an | instant longer. This the day I seek my present happiness and look on |
| W2:WIRW.5 | of time when it has served His purpose. Now He waits but that one | instant more for God to take His final step, and time has |
| W2:WIRW.5 | with it as it goes and leaving but the Truth to be Itself. That | instant is our goal, for it contains the memory of God. And as we |
| W2:300.2 | true Identity. And we give thanks today the world endures but for an | instant. We would go beyond that tiny instant to eternity. |
| W2:300.2 | the world endures but for an instant. We would go beyond that tiny | instant to eternity. |
| W2:308.1 | only interval in which I can be saved from time is now. For in this | instant has forgiveness come to set me free. The birth of Christ is |
| W2:308.2 | Thanks for this | instant, Father. It is now I am redeemed. This instant is the time |
| W2:308.2 | Thanks for this instant, Father. It is now I am redeemed. This | instant is the time You have appointed for Your Son's release and for |
| W2:324.2 | Who knows the way. We need not tarry, and we cannot stray except an | instant from His loving hand. We walk together, for we follow Him. |
| W2:355.1 | Even now my fingers touch it. It is very close. I need not wait an | instant more to be at peace forever. It is You I choose and my |
| M:2.2 | is entirely apart from time. So is all reality, being of Him. The | instant the idea of separation entered the Mind of God's Son, in that |
| M:2.2 | the idea of separation entered the Mind of God's Son, in that same | instant was God's Answer given. In time this happened very long ago. |
| M:2.4 | Time really, then, goes backward to an | instant so ancient that it is beyond all memory and past even the |
| M:2.4 | and past even the possibility of remembering. Yet because it is an | instant that is relived again and again and still again, it seems to |
| M:2.4 | This is inevitable, because he made the right choice in that ancient | instant which he now relives. So has the teacher, too, made an |
| M:5.2 | Healing is accomplished the | instant the sufferer no longer sees any value in pain. Who would |
| M:6.2 | Healing will always stand aside when it would be seen as threat. The | instant it is welcome it is there. Where healing has been given, it |
| M:10.6 | to try to keep it. The teacher of God lays it down happily the | instant he recognizes its cost. All of the ugliness he sees about him |
| M:14.3 | the goals of God's teachers. Not one thought of sin will remain the | instant any one of them accepts the Atonement for himself. It is not |
| M:15.3 | yourself to hear this judgment and to recognize that it is true. One | instant of complete belief in this, and you will go beyond belief to |
| M:15.3 | belief in this, and you will go beyond belief to certainty. One | instant out of time can bring time's end. Judge not, for you but |
| M:15.4 | They are too small and meaningless to occupy your holy minds an | instant longer. God's judgment waits for you to set you free. What |
| M:16.4 | eyes and accomplish nothing. One can as easily give God only an | instant, and in that instant join with Him completely. Perhaps the |
| M:16.4 | nothing. One can as easily give God only an instant, and in that | instant join with Him completely. Perhaps the one generalization that |
| M:16.8 | he calls for it. There are times his certainty will waver, and the | instant this occurs he will return to earlier attempts to place |
instant's (5) | ||
| Tx:27.38 | Attempt to solve no problems but within the holy | instant's surety. For there the problem will be answered and |
| Tx:27.48 | will accuse, but shine in thanks to you who blessing gave. The holy | instant's radiance will light your eyes and give them sight to see |
| Tx:28.11 | miracle delay in hastening to all unquiet minds and bringing them an | instant's stillness when the memory of God returns to them. Their own |
| Tx:28.12 | His thanks because He would not be deprived of His effects. The | instant's silence that His Son accepts gives welcome to eternity and |
| W1:129.5 | the world you want. Now is the last step certain; now you stand an | instant's space away from timelessness. Here can you but look |
instantaneous (1) | ||
| Tx:15.14 | in giving. In the crystal cleanness of the release you give is your | instantaneous escape from guilt. You must be holy if you offer |

| Tx:18.73 | part of it that, could you but appreciate the whole, you would see | instantly that it is like the smallest sunbeam to the sun or like the |
| Tx:19.13 | given to a body, but to a mind. And the mind that receives it looks | instantly beyond the body and sees the holy place where it was |

| Tx:13.75 | you worthy of the gift of God. Ask it not therefore of yourselves. | Instead, accept His answer, for He knows that you are worthy of |
| Tx:13.90 | for thus are darkness and deceit undone. Fail not yourself, but | instead offer to God and you His blameless Son. For this small gift |
| Tx:13.91 | yourself by loving not the Son of God and trying to teach him guilt | instead of love. Give up this frantic and insane attempt, which |

| Tx:15.36 | desire for it. As long as you desire it not and cherish littleness | instead, by so much is it far from you. By so much as you want it |
| Tx:17.28 | you have made is a substitute for God's Will and glorifies yours | instead of His because of the delusion that they are different. |
| Tx:17.70 | faithlessness can make it useless if you would use the faithlessness | instead. |
| Tx:17.76 | And then the power of the Holy Spirit's purpose is free to use | instead. This power instantly transforms all situations into one sure |
| Tx:18.1 | To substitute is to accept | instead. If you would but consider exactly what this entails, you |
| Tx:18.10 | that only God is there. And He would never accept something else | instead of you. He loves you both, equally and as one. And as He |

| Tx:19.53 | The Holy Spirit has given you love's messengers to send | instead of those you trained through fear. They are as eager to |
| Tx:19.54 | They have been given to replace the hungry dogs of fear you sent | instead. And they go forth to signify the end of fear. |
| Tx:19.56 | me. For I became the symbol of your sin, and so I had to die | instead of you. To the ego sin means death, and so Atonement is |

| Tx:20.29 | need to see your brother sinless. In him is Heaven. See sin in him | instead, and Heaven is lost to you. But see him as he is, and what is |
| Tx:21.4 | How foolish it is to attempt to judge what could be seen | instead. It is not necessary to imagine what the world must look |
| Tx:21.31 | faith that they can hold him and placing it in his freedom | instead. It is impossible to place equal faith in opposite |
| Tx:21.32 | vision are all for you. And when you have accepted them completely | instead of yours, you will have need of them no longer. For faith and |
| Tx:21.64 | If you choose sin | instead of healing, you would condemn the Son of God to what can |
| Tx:21.64 | nor yourself can be attacked alone. But neither can accept a miracle | instead without the other being blessed by it and healed of pain. |
| Tx:21.69 | to be merciful, there is he free. But where he chooses to condemn | instead, there is he held a prisoner, waiting in chains his pardon on |
| Tx:21.75 | Do I desire a world I rule | instead of one which rules me? Do I desire a world where I am |
| Tx:21.75 | of one which rules me? Do I desire a world where I am powerful | instead of helpless? Do I desire a world in which I have no enemies |
| Tx:22.11 | So in each holy relationship is the ability to communicate | instead of separate reborn. Yet a holy relationship, so recently |
| Tx:23.21 | kind can be corrected because they are untrue. When brought to truth | instead of to each other, they merely disappear. No part of nothing |
| Tx:23.51 | Here murder is your choice. Yet from above, the choice is miracles | instead of murder. And the perspective coming from this choice shows |
| Tx:23.52 | it occurs, leave not your place on high but quickly choose a miracle | instead of murder. And God Himself and all the lights of Heaven will |
| Tx:24.4 | The secret enemies of peace, your least decision to choose attack | instead of love, unrecognized and swift to challenge you to combat |
| Tx:24.12 | had you not chosen to make of him a tiny measure of your specialness | instead. Against the littleness you see in him, you stand as tall and |
| Tx:24.14 | Which created them as one with Him. They chose their specialness | instead of Heaven and instead of peace and wrapped it carefully in |
| Tx:24.14 | as one with Him. They chose their specialness instead of Heaven and | instead of peace and wrapped it carefully in sin to keep it “safe” |
| Tx:24.16 | specialness they think they see is an illusion. What would they see | instead? |
| Tx:24.31 | the Holy One the specialness He could not give and which you made | instead. |
| Tx:24.33 | seek your love that you may love yourself. Love not your specialness | instead of them. The print of nails are on your hands as well. |
| Tx:24.37 | you would keep the gift your Father asks from Him and give it there | instead? Given to Him, the universe is yours. Offered to them, no |
| Tx:24.39 | to be your savior and crucified the one whom God has given you | instead. So are you bound with him, for you are one. And so is |
| Tx:24.64 | How can you know your worth while specialness claims you | instead? How can you fail to know it is in his holiness? Seek not to |
| Tx:25.5 | would you not despise the one who tells you this and seek his death | instead? The message and the messenger are one. And you must see your |
| Tx:25.16 | masterpiece He offers you to see. And would you rather see the frame | instead of this? And see the picture not at all? |
| Tx:25.17 | separate purpose that obscures the picture and cherishes the frame | instead of it. Yet God has set His masterpiece within a frame that |
| Tx:25.18 | Accept God's frame | instead of yours, and you will see the masterpiece. Look at its |
| Tx:25.19 | not. And in this seeing is the vision shared that looks on Christ | instead of seeing death. |
| Tx:25.27 | to put it out of mind where it must be and light the body up | instead of it. The lamps of Heaven are not for it to choose to see |
| Tx:25.28 | see the workings of the Helper given you to see the world He made, | instead of yours. |
| Tx:25.38 | alien to yourself and “something else,” a “something” to be feared | instead of loved. Who would attack whatever he perceives as wholly |
| Tx:25.46 | kind perception of specialness—His use of what you made, to heal | instead of harm. To each He gives a special function in salvation he |
| Tx:25.48 | let it serve his brother and himself and thus become a means to save | instead of lose. Salvation is no more than a reminder this world is |
| Tx:25.80 | as losing, he has been condemned. And punishment becomes his due | instead of justice. |
| Tx:26.5 | Those who would see the witnesses to truth | instead of to illusion merely ask that they might see a purpose in |
| Tx:26.17 | God cannot be remembered until justice is loved | instead of feared. He cannot be unjust to anyone or anything because |
| Tx:26.17 | And all you need to do is but to wish that Heaven be given you | instead of hell, and every bolt and barrier that seems to hold the |
| Tx:26.19 | wholly simple. Here is sin denied and everything that is received | instead. |
| Tx:26.40 | as God created him. He was reborn the instant that he chose to die | instead of live. And will you not forgive him now because he made an |
| Tx:26.63 | he chooses not to die again. In every wish to hurt, he chooses death | instead of what his Father wills for him. Yet every instant offers |
| Tx:26.65 | lay aside the power that He gave and choose a little senseless wish | instead of what He wills. The gift of God to you is limitless. There |
| Tx:27.48 | give them sight to see beyond all suffering and see Christ's face | instead. Healing replaces suffering. Who looks on one cannot perceive |
| Tx:27.73 | And gave him means to waken without fear. Accept the dream He gave | instead of yours. It is not difficult to [shift] a dream when once |
| Tx:27.75 | Himself awaken His beloved Son. Dream of your brother's kindnesses | instead of dwelling in your dreams on his mistakes. Select his |
| Tx:27.75 | dreams on his mistakes. Select his thoughtfulness to dream about | instead of counting up the hurts he gave. Forgive him his illusions |
| Tx:27.83 | on a guilty world which dreams your dreams and thinks your thoughts | instead of you. It brings its vengeance, not your own. It keeps you |
| Tx:28.7 | it is gone, for this is what you would be pardoned from. And see | instead the new effects of cause accepted now, with consequences |
| Tx:28.27 | I am doing this.” And thus the mind is free to make another choice | instead. Beginning here, salvation will proceed to change the course |
| Tx:28.37 | him turn illusions on himself. Nor do you wish that they be turned | instead on you. Thus have they no effects. And you are free of dreams |
| Tx:28.41 | part, but this you do when you become a passive figure in his dream | instead of dreamer of your own. Identity in dreams is meaningless |
| Tx:28.44 | To each he offers his identity, which the whole picture represents, | instead of just a little broken bit which he insisted was himself. |
| Tx:28.66 | everything his Father promised him. No secret promise you have made | instead has shaken the Foundation of his home. The winds will blow |
| Tx:29.10 | to learn that you are free? Why would you not acclaim the truth, | instead of looking on it as an enemy? Why does an easy path, so |
| Tx:29.10 | for you to follow? Is it not because you see it as the road to hell | instead of looking on it as a simple way, without a sacrifice or any |
| Tx:29.34 | on every vain illusion of the world. And being empty, they received | instead a brother's hand in which completion lay. |
| Tx:29.35 | thinks he holds the hand of death. Believe him not. But learn | instead how blessed are you who can release him just by offering him |
| Tx:29.36 | him for all his dreams of death—a dream of hope you share with him | instead of dreaming evil separate dreams of hate. Why does it seem so |
| Tx:29.38 | are you to forgive your brother? How much do you desire peace | instead of endless strife and misery and pain? These questions are |
| Tx:29.38 | loss. This is the “sacrifice” salvation asks and gladly offers peace | instead of this. |
| Tx:29.65 | believe because he fears his thoughts and gives them to the toys | instead. And their reality becomes his own because they seem to save |
| Tx:30.35 | Look once again upon your enemy, the one you chose to hate | instead of love. For thus was hatred born into the world, and thus |
| Tx:30.57 | made of anyone or anything to twist and fit into the dream of fear. | Instead, there is a wish to understand all things created as they |
| Tx:30.71 | to make unnatural responses which are inappropriate to what is real. | Instead, it merely asks that you respond appropriately to what is not |
| Tx:30.91 | dreams but keep their unreality obscure and give to them reality | instead. And Heaven gives no answer to the prayer, nor can a miracle |
| Tx:30.92 | he denies reality. And he becomes the willing slave of what he chose | instead. |
| Tx:30.94 | There is no false appearance but will fade if you request a miracle | instead. There is no pain from which he is not free if you would have |
| Tx:31.28 | the body, and you give its purpose to its prison-house, which acts | instead of it. A jailer does not follow orders, but enforces orders |
| Tx:31.37 | it not needful that he should begin with this, to seek another way | instead? For while he sees a choice where there is none, what power |
| Tx:31.38 | be, is the beginning of acceptance that there is a real alternative | instead. To fight against this step is to defeat your purpose here. |
| Tx:31.63 | looking at the cost of keeping guilt because they chose to let it go | instead. |
| Tx:31.73 | of change and keep it static and concealed within your mind. Give it | instead to Him Who understands the changes that it needs to let it |
| Tx:31.73 | not rather look upon yourself as needed for salvation of the world | instead of as salvation's enemy? |
| Tx:31.81 | you are not. And think as well upon the thing that you would be | instead. It is a thing of madness, pain, and death; a thing of |
| Tx:31.86 | brought your weakness unto Him, and He has given you His strength | instead. |
| Tx:31.88 | the world who see like Him are merely those who chose His strength | instead of their own weakness, seen apart from Him. They will redeem |
| W1:10.2 | different. This time the idea is introduced with “My thoughts” | instead of “These thoughts” and no link is made overtly with the |
| W1:12.2 | the time of the shift to become markedly longer or shorter, but try, | instead, to keep a measured, even tempo throughout. What you see does |
| W1:25.2 | you will try to withdraw the goals you have assigned to the world | instead of attempting to reinforce them. |
| W1:28.6 | a commitment to each of them to let their purpose be revealed to you | instead of placing your own judgment upon them. |
| W1:30.2 | attempting to get rid of what we do not like by seeing it outside. | Instead, we are trying to see in the world what is in our minds, and |
| W1:34.6 | I could see peace in this situation | instead of what I now see in it. |
| W1:41.5 | idea very slowly. Then make no effort to think of anything. Try | instead to get a sense of turning inward, past all the idle thoughts |
| W1:45.5 | Instead, we will try to recognize that only what God would have us do | |
| W1:57.5 | [34] I could see peace | instead of this. When I see the world as a place of freedom, I will |
| W1:57.5 | a place of freedom, I will realize that it reflects the laws of God | instead of the rules which I made up for it to obey. I will |
| W1:72.8 | truth and welcome it as Friend. Your chosen savior takes His place | instead. It is your friend; He is your enemy. |
| W1:72.9 | stop these senseless attacks on salvation. We will try to welcome it | instead. Your upside-down perception has been ruinous to your peace |
| W1:72.10 | is to end the attack on God's plan for salvation and to accept it | instead. And wherever His plan is accepted, it is accomplished |
| W1:72.19 | is an attack on God's plan for salvation. Let me accept it | instead. What is salvation, Father? |
| W1:73.17 | a grievance of any kind. This will help you let your grievances go | instead of cherishing them and hiding them in the darkness. |
| W1:76.7 | this is so. It is no longer a truth which we would hide. We realize | instead it is a truth which keeps us free forever. Magic imprisons, |
| W1:78.1 | the while it waits for you in light, but you behold your grievances | instead. |
| W1:78.2 | Today we go beyond the grievances to look upon the miracle | instead. We will reverse the way you see by not allowing sight to |
| W1:89.4 | against you [name], but offer you the miracle that belongs to you | instead. Seen truly, this offers me a miracle. |
| W1:91.3 | it is insanity not to see what is there and to see what is not there | instead. You do not doubt that the body's eyes can see. You do not |
| W1:100.5 | to our vision. Sadness is the sign that you would play another part | instead of what has been assigned to you by God. Thus do you fail to |
| W1:103.1 | believing there are gaps in love where sin can enter, bringing pain | instead of joy. |
| W1:104.1 | receive His gifts. They are not welcomed gladly by a mind which has | instead received the gifts it made where His belong, as substitutes |
| W1:104.6 | sought for only in a world of dreams. All this we lay aside and seek | instead that which is truly ours, as we ask to recognize what God has |
| W1:106.4 | are true. They will not fade when dreaming ends. They end the dream | instead and last forever, for they come from God to His dear Son, |
| W1:108.1 | that one will disappear because the Thought behind it will appear | instead, to take its place. And now we are at peace forever, for the |
| W1:110.9 | honor your Self. Let graven images you made to be the Son of God | instead of what He is be worshiped not today. Deep in your mind the |
| W1:122.5 | is the answer! Seek for it no more. You will not find another one | instead. God's plan for your salvation cannot change, nor can it |
| W1:125.7 | give ten minutes set apart from listening to the world and choose | instead a gentle listening to the Word of God. He speaks from nearer |
| W1:129.3 | Is it a loss to find a world | instead where losing is impossible, where love endures forever, hate |
| W1:129.6 | This world holds nothing that you really want, but what you choose | instead you want indeed! Let it be given you today. It waits but for |
| W1:129.8 | Beyond this world there is a world I want. I choose to see that world | instead of this, for here is nothing that I really want. |
| W1:131.10 | thoughts like these behind today, and turn your mind to true ideas | instead. |
| W1:132.21 | I loose the world from all I thought it was and choose my own reality | instead. |
| W1:133.1 | We will not speak of lofty, world-encompassing ideas but dwell | instead on benefits to you. |
| W1:134.9 | to dwell on what you think he did, for this is self-deception. Ask | instead, “Should I accuse myself of doing this?” |
| W1:135.23 | blocks the truth from entering our minds. Today we will receive | instead of plan, that we may give instead of organize. And we are |
| W1:135.23 | our minds. Today we will receive instead of plan, that we may give | instead of organize. And we are given truly, as we say: |
| W1:136.4 | beyond your state of mind, an outcome with a real effect on you | instead of one effected by your self. |
| W1:138.4 | is true and nothing else is real. There is no opposite to choose | instead. There is no contradiction to the truth. |
| W1:139.3 | what is life except to be yourself, and what but you can be alive | instead? Who is the doubter? What is it he doubts? Whom does he |
| W1:152.10 | ashamed of what we are. And we lift our hearts in true humility | instead to Him Who has created us immaculate, like to Himself in |
| W1:155.12 | always been. What way but this could be a path that you would choose | instead? |
| W1:161.2 | it is now unnatural. It does not look on everything as one. It sees | instead but fragments of the whole, for only thus could it invent the |
| W1:161.9 | scarce refrain from kneeling at his feet. Yet you will take his hand | instead, for you are like him in the sight that sees him thus. |
| W1:186.5 | false is true has brought to you. Accept the plan you did not make | instead. Judge not your value to it. If God's Voice assures you that |
| W1:186.12 | and unsure of everything? Let not its voice direct you. Hear | instead a certain Voice Which tells you of a function given you by |
| W1:187.9 | you will behold will take away all thought of form and leave | instead the perfect gift forever there, forever to increase, forever |
| W1:188.7 | listen. And they urge you gently to accept His Word for what you are | instead of fantasies and shadows. They remind you that you are the |
| W1:190.11 | unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are free to choose our joy | instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, the peace of God |
| W1:190.11 | joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, the peace of God | instead of conflict, and the light of Heaven for the darkness of the |
| W1:192.9 | Therefore hold no one prisoner. Release | instead of bind, for thus are you made free. The way is simple. Every |
| W1:192.9 | savior from the prison-house of death. And so you owe him thanks | instead of pain. |
| W1:193.10 | tempted to believe that pain is real and death becomes our choice | instead of life? Shall we not learn to say these words when we have |
| W1:198.5 | to hear His Voice and learn the simple lessons He would teach, | instead of trying to dismiss His words and substitute your own in |
| W1:198.7 | the place where you beheld Their blood, you will perceive a miracle | instead. |
| W1:R6.10 | few formal expressions for specific thoughts to aid your practicing. | Instead we give these times of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in |
| W1:210.1 | [190] I choose the joy of God | instead of pain. Pain is my own idea. It is not a thought of God, but |
| W1:210.1 | His Will is joy and only joy for His beloved Son. And that I choose | instead of what I made. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as |
| W2:I.10 | that we need only call to God and all temptations disappear. | Instead of words, we need but feel His Love. Instead of prayer, we |
| W2:I.10 | temptations disappear. Instead of words, we need but feel His Love. | Instead of prayer, we need but call His Name. Instead of judging, we |
| W2:I.10 | but feel His Love. Instead of prayer, we need but call His Name. | Instead of judging, we need but be still and let all things be |
| W2:223.2 | Our Father, let us see the face of Christ | instead of our mistakes. For we who are Your holy Son are sinless. We |
| W2:224.2 | for I am weary of the world I see. Reveal what You would have me see | instead. |
| W2:233.1 | me Your own. I give You all my acts as well, that I may do Your will | instead of seeking goals which cannot be obtained and wasting time in |
| W2:239.1 | truth about ourselves today be hidden by a false humility. Let us | instead be thankful for the gifts our Father gave us. Can we see in |
| W2:WIW.3 | The mechanisms of illusion have been born | instead. And now they go to find what has been given them to seek. |
| W2:250.2 | He is Your Son, my Father. And today I would behold his gentleness | instead of my illusions. He is what I am, and as I see him, so I see |
| W2:WIS.2 | Truth can be its aim as well as lies. The senses then will seek | instead for witnesses to what is true. |
| W2:258.1 | in unawareness while the toys and trinkets of the world are sought | instead? God is our only goal, our only Love. We have no aim but to |
| W2:263.1 | and fearful images. A madman's dream is hardly fit to be my choice | instead of all the loveliness with which You blessed creation—all |
| W2:265.1 | And how deceived was I to think that what I feared was in the world | instead of in my mind alone. Today I see the world in the celestial |
| W2:278.2 | fear into my mind. Today I would not dream. I choose the way to You | instead of madness and instead of fear. For truth is safe and only |
| W2:278.2 | I would not dream. I choose the way to You instead of madness and | instead of fear. For truth is safe and only love is sure. |
| W2:285.1 | avail me, if insanity departs from me today and I accept my holiness | instead? |
| W2:291.2 | receive the thoughts You offer me. And I accept what comes from You | instead of from myself. I do not know the way to You. But You are |

| W1:181.3 | for us within this interval of time wherein we practice changing our | intent. We seek for innocence and nothing else. We seek for it with |

| W1:185.3 | Two minds with one | intent become so strong that what they will becomes the Will of God. |
| W1:185.3 | minds can only join in truth. In dreams no two can share the same | intent. To each the hero of the dream is different—the outcome |

| W1:185.10 | For thus you reach to what they really want and join your own | intent with what they seek above all things, perhaps unknown to them, |
| W1:185.13 | you will also know you share one will with all your brothers, whose | intent is yours. |
| W1:185.14 | It is this one | intent we seek today, uniting our desires with the need of every |

| Tx:14.56 | and what you would hide from the Holy Spirit is nothing. Every | interpretation you would lay upon a brother is senseless. Let the |
| Tx:15.58 | always lose if you perceive yourself as weak. Yet there is another | interpretation of relationships which transcends the concept of loss |
| Tx:16.1 | for that is what you must refuse to understand. That is the ego's | interpretation of empathy and is always used to form a special |
| Tx:16.5 | True empathy is of Him Who knows what it is. You will learn His | interpretation of it if you let Him use your capacity for strength |

| Tx:21.64 | this is fearful. That you are joined to him is but a fact, not an | interpretation. How can a fact be fearful unless it disagrees with |

| Tx:15.62 | of the Son of God share equally, and by this recognition you will | join with me in offering what is needed. |
| Tx:15.63 | It is through us that peace will come. | Join me in the idea of peace, for in ideas minds can communicate. If |
| Tx:15.80 | cast aside but what you still desire with all your hearts. Let us | join together in making the holy instant all that there is by |

| Tx:16.80 | is nothing that will not give place to Him and to His majesty. To | join in close relationship with Him is to accept relationships as |
| Tx:17.19 | the union was sought. For it was formed to get him out of it and | join with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” How can the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:17.25 | It is still up to you to choose to be willing to | join with truth or illusion. But remember that to choose one is to |
| Tx:17.52 | you comfortless, for God Himself has blessed your holy relationship. | Join in His blessing, and withhold not yours upon it. For all it |
| Tx:17.52 | for it has come to you. And welcome it together, for it has come to | join you together in a relationship in which all the Sonship is |
| Tx:18.10 | in which you stand together. God is with you, my brothers. Let us | join in Him in peace and gratitude and accept His gift as our most |
| Tx:18.12 | happiness? Or would you not prefer to heal what has been broken and | join in making whole what has been ravaged by separation and disease? |
| Tx:18.13 | The peace of God is given you with the glowing purpose in which you | join. The holy light that brought you together must extend, as you |
| Tx:18.23 | wishes in your mind, so do the real world and the truth of Heaven | join in the Will of God. The dream of waking is easily transferred to |
| Tx:18.25 | and when you are afraid, you have stepped back. Let us then | join quickly in an instant of light, and it will be enough to remind |
| Tx:18.29 | remain in darkness. Those who would see will see. And they will | join with me in carrying their light into the darkness when the |
| Tx:18.30 | pasts would hinder. You have gone past fear, for no two minds can | join in the desire for love without love's joining them. |
| Tx:18.60 | of the physical distance which seems to be between you and what you | join, of your respective positions in space, and of your differences |
| Tx:18.62 | a “breaking out,” but merely by a quiet “melting in.” For peace will | join you there simply because you have been willing to let go the |
| Tx:18.72 | which surrounds you. God cannot come into a body, nor can you | join Him there. Limits on love will always seem to shut Him out and |
| Tx:19.42 | rests in peace within you. Yet you are still unwilling to let it | join you wholly. You still oppose the Will of God, just by a little. |
| Tx:19.43 | It cannot contain the Will of God. Peace will flow across it and | join you without hindrance. Salvation cannot be withheld from you. It |
| Tx:19.55 | And in a holy instant, grace is said by everyone together as they | join in gentleness before the table of communion. And I will join you |
| Tx:19.55 | as they join in gentleness before the table of communion. And I will | join you there, as long ago I promised and promise still. For in your |
| Tx:19.61 | messengers are sent far beyond the body, calling the mind to | join in holy communion and be at peace. Such is the message that I |
| Tx:19.63 | has not lost communion with Him nor with himself. When you agreed to | join each other, you acknowledged this is so. This has no cost, but |
| Tx:19.91 | peace will lightly brush the veil aside and run to meet Him and to | join with Him at last. For this dark veil, which seems to make the |
| Tx:19.93 | fear of God be lifted so you could look upon the face of Christ and | join Him in His Father. |
| Tx:19.98 | Stand you here a while and tremble not. You will be ready. Let us | join together in a holy instant, here in this place where the purpose |
| Tx:19.98 | where the purpose given in a holy instant has led you. And let us | join in faith that He Who brought us here together will offer you the |
| Tx:19.105 | God that he is holy and has been given the gift of holiness for you. | Join him in gladness and remove all trace of guilt from his disturbed |
| Tx:20.2 | thorns in one hand and lilies in the other, uncertain which to give. | Join now with me and throw away the thorns, offering the lilies to |
| Tx:20.14 | This is the way to Heaven and to the peace of Easter, in which we | join in glad awareness that the Son of God is risen from the past and |
| Tx:20.37 | lost, and never lost forever. So do the parts of God's Son gradually | join in time, and with each joining is the end of time brought |
| Tx:21.37 | this side of Heaven. The instant for its recognition is at hand. | Join your awareness to what has been already joined. The faith you |
| Tx:21.39 | But “good” and “deprivation” are opposites and cannot meaningfully | join in any way. It is like saying that the moon and sun are one |
| Tx:21.43 | identity lies in the ego. A holy relationship is one in which you | join with what is part of you in truth. And your belief in sin has |
| Tx:21.45 | him perfectly since time began. And it desired nothing but to | join with him and to be free again, as once it was. It has been |
| Tx:21.71 | strike them dead and raising up their helplessness against him. They | join the army of the powerless, to wage their war of vengeance, |
| Tx:22.13 | being joined. Nor is it possible that anything not part of Him can | join. Communication must have been restored to those that join, for |
| Tx:22.13 | of Him can join. Communication must have been restored to those that | join, for this they could not do through bodies. What, then, has |
| Tx:22.59 | will withhold no blessing from it nor limit it in any way. He will | join to it all the power that God has given Him to make each little |
| Tx:23.9 | an illusion of yourself you share with it. And yet illusions cannot | join. They are the same, and they are nothing. Their joining lies in |
| Tx:23.23 | as the separate aspects of the Son meet only to conflict but not to | join. One becomes weak, the other strong by his defeat. And fear of |
| Tx:23.40 | can be reached? If not, you walk alone. Ask, then, your Friend to | join with you and give you certainty of where you go. |
| Tx:24.33 | that this be done unto your savior? God calls to you from him to | join His Will to save you both from hell. Look on the print of nails |
| Tx:25.4 | to stand between the aspects of His holiness, which meet and | join and raise Him to His Father, whole and pure and worthy of His |
| Tx:25.8 | that it is in truth, but that the link that has been given you to | join the truth may reach to you through what you understand. Father |
| Tx:25.8 | Father and Son and Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers | join as one in truth. Christ and His Father never have been separate, |
| Tx:25.22 | He gave the same to both of you. His Will is brought together as you | join in will that you be made complete by offering completion to your |
| Tx:25.39 | in whatever form the call is made, that you unite with him and | join with him in innocence and peace. And yet beneath the ego's |
| Tx:26.1 | can come a little nearer or go a little farther off but cannot | join. |
| Tx:26.2 | inside can never reach without, and what is out can never reach and | join with what is locked away within the wall. Each part must |
| Tx:26.26 | for everything is totally forgiven. And what has been forgiven must | join, for nothing stands between to keep them separate and apart. The |
| Tx:26.26 | push the other off. And in the space which sin left vacant do they | join as one, in gladness recognizing what is part of them has not |
| Tx:26.29 | rise a world which will become an altar to the truth, and you will | join the lights of Heaven there and sing their song of gratitude and |
| Tx:26.29 | of Heaven from you! And how great will be the joy in Heaven when you | join the mighty chorus to the love of God! |
| Tx:26.59 | you to control or to prevent. What is thus kept apart can never | join. |
| Tx:26.79 | They undone. And now you stand on ground so holy Heaven leans to | join with it and make it like itself. The shadow of an ancient hate |
| Tx:26.80 | is cleansed, and the insane have shed their garments of insanity to | join Them on the ground whereon you stand. |
| Tx:27.1 | combine the wholly incompatible and make a unity of what can never | join? Walk you the gentle way, and you will fear no evil and no |
| Tx:27.29 | that contradicts the concept which it attacks. And by this does it | join to the idea a something it is not and make it unintelligible. |
| Tx:28.11 | in quiet then, to other minds to share its quietness. And they will | join in doing nothing to prevent its radiant extension back into the |
| Tx:28.29 | sickness and perceived effects. Healing is the effect of minds which | join, as sickness comes from minds which separate. |
| Tx:28.30 | minds are seen as bodies which are separated and which cannot | join. Do not allow your brother to be sick, for if he is, have you |
| Tx:28.31 | and every form of ill because it is a wish to keep apart and not to | join. And thus it seems to give a cause to sickness which is not its |
| Tx:28.35 | be lit by miracles. And where the gap was seen to stand between you, | join your brother there. And sickness will be seen without a cause. |
| Tx:28.38 | who dreams them. Thus you separate the dreamer from the dream and | join [with] one but let the other go. The dream is but illusion in |
| Tx:28.40 | And yet, between your minds there is no gap. To | join his dreams is thus to meet him not because his dreams would |
| Tx:28.41 | Be certain, if you do your part, he will do his, for he will | join you where you stand. Call not to him to meet you in the gap |
| Tx:28.43 | has left the space between them vacant. And the Father comes to | join His Son the Holy Spirit joined. |
| Tx:28.46 | Join not your brother's dreams but join with him, and where you join | |
| Tx:28.46 | Join not your brother's dreams but | join with him, and where you join His Son, the Father is. Who seeks |
| Tx:28.46 | Join not your brother's dreams but join with him, and where you | join His Son, the Father is. Who seeks for substitutes when he |
| Tx:28.63 | of God's Son, and for this purpose it cannot be sick. It will not | join a purpose not your own, and you have chosen that it not be sick. |
| Tx:29.4 | then your bodies seem to get in touch and signify a meeting-place to | join. But always is it possible to go your separate ways. Conditional |
| Tx:30.29 | And you ask help of Christ or anti-Christ, and which you choose will | join with you and tell you what to do. |
| Tx:30.63 | When brothers | join in purpose in the world of fear, they stand already at the edge |
| Tx:30.64 | Heaven itself. For He Whose hand you hold was waiting but for you to | join Him. Now that you have come, would He delay in showing you the |
| Tx:31.8 | Nothing but calls to you in soft appeal to be your friend and let it | join with you. And never does a call remain unheard, misunderstood, |
| Tx:31.17 | you are separate from him and are lost. But hear the other, and you | join with him, and in your answer is salvation found. The voice you |
| Tx:31.79 | with hate, depending only on the simple choice of whether you would | join with what you see or keep yourself apart and separate. |
| Tx:31.93 | uncertain, lonely, and in constant fear. For it is given you to | join with him, and through the Christ in you unveil his eyes and let |
| Tx:31.94 | on before the Christ appeared. Hear me, my brothers, hear and | join with me. God has ordained I cannot call in vain, and in His |
| Tx:31.96 | In joyous welcome is my hand outstretched to every brother who would | join with me in reaching past temptation and who looks with fixed |
| Tx:31.96 | give You thanks for what my brothers are. And as each one elects to | join with me, the song of thanks from earth to Heaven grows from tiny |
| W1:30.2 | minds, and what we want to recognize is there. Thus we are trying to | join with what we see, rather than keeping it apart from us. That is |
| W1:52.6 | mind is part of creation and part of its Creator. Would I not rather | join the thinking of the universe than to obscure all that is really |

| W1:109.4 | rest of truth. Appearances cannot intrude on you. You call to all to | join you in your rest, and they will hear and come to you because you |

| W1:135.21 | to the ancient plan begun when time was born. Your followers will | join their light with yours, and it will be increased until the world |
| W1:137.8 | overcome. And minds which were walled off within a body free to | join with other minds, to be forever strong. |

| W1:152.11 | and release from hell are joyously accepted as our own. Now do we | join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false and only truth is |
| W1:183.6 | And should you | join a brother as you sit with him in silence and repeat God's Name |
| W1:185.3 | that what they will becomes the Will of God. For minds can only | join in truth. In dreams no two can share the same intent. To each |
| W1:185.6 | The mind which means that all it wants is peace must | join with other minds, for that is how peace is obtained. And when |

| W1:191.12 | of his holiness. And we will sleep no more and dream of death. Then | join with me today. Your glory is the light that saves the world. Do |
| W2:264.2 | My brothers, | join with me in this today. This is salvation's prayer. Must we not |
| W2:264.2 | join with me in this today. This is salvation's prayer. Must we not | join in what will save the world along with us? |
| W2:275.1 | as the time when we will seek and hear and learn and understand. | Join me in hearing. For the Voice of God tells us of things we cannot |
| W2:WISC.5 | needs your willingness. Let us rejoice that we can do God's Will and | join together in its holy light. Behold, the Son of God is one in us, |
| W2:307.2 | we enter silently into a state where conflict cannot come because we | join our holy will with God's in recognition that they are but one. |
| W2:313.2 | How beautiful we are! How holy and how loving! Brother, come and | join with me today. We save the world when we are joined. For in our |
| W2:328.1 | our Father wills for us, nor is there any second to His Will. To | join with His is but to find our own. And since our will is His, it |

| Tx:15.107 | In the holy instant, the condition of love is met, for minds are | joined without the body's interference, and where there is |
| Tx:16.13 | alone. You have succeeded whenever you have reached another mind and | joined with it. When two minds join as one and share one idea |
| Tx:16.26 | your teaching have gathered to help you learn. Their gratitude has | joined with yours and God's to strengthen your faith in what you |

| Tx:17.55 | Yet because it is within, the gladness, too, is yours. You are | joined in purpose, but remain still separate and divided on the means. |
| Tx:18.2 | one person as a replacement for another, the Holy Spirit sees them | joined and indivisible. He does not judge between them, knowing they |
| Tx:18.2 | unite; the other separate. Nothing can come between what God has | joined and what the Holy Spirit sees as one. But everything seems to |
| Tx:18.9 | and where only the truth about each other can abide. Here you are | joined in God, as much together as you are with Him. The original |
| Tx:18.10 | You are so firmly | joined in truth that only God is there. And He would never accept |
| Tx:18.10 | equally and as one. And as He loves you, so you are. You are not | joined together in illusions but in the Thought so holy and so |
| Tx:18.11 | you stands with you, together. And Heaven looks with love on what is | joined in it, along with its Creator. |
| Tx:18.21 | If you but recognized His gratitude! Or mine through His! For we are | joined as in one purpose, being of one mind with Him. |
| Tx:18.23 | transferred to its reality. For this dream comes from your will | joined with the Will of God. And what this will would have |

| Tx:18.29 | salvation. Would I not give you what you gave to me? For when you | joined each other, you answered me. |
| Tx:18.31 | that shines forever in the Mind of God but shines on you. Heaven is | joined with you in your advance to Heaven. When such great light has |

| Tx:18.51 | Minds are | joined; bodies are not. Only by assigning to the mind the properties |
| Tx:18.55 | serve your guilt stands between you and other minds. The minds are | joined, but you do not identify with them. You see yourself locked in |
| Tx:18.58 | can stretch out your hand and reach to Heaven. You whose hands are | joined have begun to reach beyond the body, but not outside |
| Tx:18.60 | a general idea without specific reference. Yet in every case, you | joined it without reservation because you love it and would be with |
| Tx:18.62 | have been willing to let go the limits you have placed upon love and | joined it where it is and where it led you in answer to its gentle |
| Tx:18.75 | a separate mind, a disconnected thought living alone and in no way | joined to the Thought by which it was created. Each tiny fragment |
| Tx:19.2 | this is healing. The body is healed because you came without it and | joined the mind in which all healing rests. |
| Tx:19.9 | what is unworthy of it and cannot look beyond the barrier to what is | joined with you. |
| Tx:19.13 | you see, not through the body's eyes but in the sight of Him Who | joined you and in Whom you are united. Grace is not given to a body, |
| Tx:19.16 | in any way except by the mind that thought it. For it remains | joined to its source, which is its jailor or its liberator, according |
| Tx:19.64 | it be difficult for us to walk past barriers together when you have | joined the limitless? The end of guilt is in your hands to give. |
| Tx:19.66 | together in the quiet communion in which the Father and the Son are | joined. Oh come ye faithful to the holy union of the Father and Son |
| Tx:19.67 | already. And in Him it is possible that our communion, where we are | joined already, will be the focus of the new perception that will |
| Tx:21.2 | you tried to crucify him. If you see holiness and hope, you | joined the Will of God to set him free. There is no choice that lies |
| Tx:21.10 | shining and with no break or limit anywhere. Within it everything is | joined in perfect continuity. Nor is it possible to imagine that |
| Tx:21.11 | memory of what you are—a part of this, with all of it within and | joined to all as surely as all is joined in you. Accept the vision |
| Tx:21.11 | of this, with all of it within and joined to all as surely as all is | joined in you. Accept the vision which can show you this and not the |
| Tx:21.37 | recognition is at hand. Join your awareness to what has been already | joined. The faith you give each other can accomplish this. For He Who |
| Tx:21.39 | are one because they come with night and day, and so they must be | joined. Yet sight of one is but the sign the other has disappeared |
| Tx:21.43 | for it to bother to pretend it is your friend. Those who have | joined their brothers have detached themselves from their belief that |
| Tx:21.45 | to come to you. And now you recognize that it was not the ego that | joined the Holy Spirit's purpose, and so there must be something |
| Tx:21.48 | is revealed in both your sight. What it would keep apart has met and | joined, and looks upon the ego unafraid. Little children, innocent of |
| Tx:21.53 | the Will of God wait upon time to be accomplished. Therefore, what | joined the Will of God must be in you now, being eternal. You must |
| Tx:21.60 | separate. But reason tells you that this must be wrong. If you are | joined, how could it be that you have private thoughts? And how could |
| Tx:21.60 | yours alone have no effect at all on what is yours? If minds are | joined, this is impossible. |
| Tx:21.63 | To see the body as a barrier between what reason tells you must be | joined must be insane. Nor could you see it if you heard the voice of |
| Tx:21.64 | but your choice for you. Yet think not this is fearful. That you are | joined to him is but a fact, not an interpretation. How can a fact be |
| Tx:21.66 | That you are | joined is your salvation—the gift of Heaven, not the gift of fear. |
| Tx:21.72 | except they hate him. In hatred they have come together but have not | joined each other. For had they done so, hatred would be impossible. |
| Tx:22.1 | Take pity on yourselves, so long enslaved. Rejoice whom God hath | joined have come together and need no longer look on sin apart. No |
| Tx:22.4 | conclusion of your union. It must extend, as you extended when you | joined. It must reach out beyond itself, as you reached out beyond |
| Tx:22.4 | itself, as you reached out beyond the body to let yourselves be | joined. And now the sameness which you saw extends and finally |
| Tx:22.13 | to the unworthy. Nothing but what is part of Him is worthy of being | joined. Nor is it possible that anything not part of Him can join. |
| Tx:22.13 | join, for this they could not do through bodies. What, then, has | joined them? Reason will tell you that they must have seen each other |
| Tx:22.14 | love enters thankfully, grateful that it is one with you who | joined to let it enter. |
| Tx:22.42 | acceptance. From you who have accepted it is it received. Into your | joined hands is it safely given, for you who share it have become its |
| Tx:22.44 | before the veil, it still seems difficult. But hold out your | joined hands and touch this heavy-seeming block, and you will learn |
| Tx:22.47 | in between. God holds your hands, and what can separate whom He has | joined as one with Him? It is your Father Whom you would defend |
| Tx:22.48 | How insignificant before the quiet strength of those whom love has | joined! This is your “enemy”—a frightened mouse that would attack |
| Tx:22.48 | Is it this tiny mouse or everything that God created? You are not | joined together by this mouse but by the Will of God. And can a mouse |
| Tx:22.48 | mouse but by the Will of God. And can a mouse betray whom God has | joined? |
| Tx:22.54 | And in your healing is the Sonship healed because your wills are | joined. |
| Tx:22.55 | there is no sin. The form of error is no longer seen, and reason, | joined with love, looks quietly on all confusion, observing merely, |
| Tx:22.65 | so it makes you one with your Creator. And in Him is all creation | joined. Would you regret you cannot fear alone when your relationship |
| Tx:24.18 | Let not the dream of specialness remain between you. What is one is | joined in truth. |
| Tx:25.10 | you think that part of you is separate, the concept of a oneness | joined as one is meaningless. It is apparent that a mind so split |
| Tx:25.17 | the part of Him that you would see as separate. Yet its frame is | joined to its Creator, one with Him and with His masterpiece. This is |
| Tx:25.32 | Minds that are | joined and recognize they are can feel no guilt. For they cannot |
| Tx:26.2 | must sacrifice the other part to keep itself complete. For if they | joined, each one would lose its own identity, and by their separation |
| Tx:26.29 | then has soared into a magnitude of song in which the universe has | joined with but a single voice. This tiny spot of sin that stands |
| Tx:26.54 | stands between your brother and yourself. It is the wish that you be | joined with him and not apart. We call it “wish” because it still |
| Tx:26.77 | he must be when in him sleeps your own salvation with his freedom | joined! However much you wish he be condemned, God is in him. And |
| Tx:26.87 | Unfairness and attack are one mistake, so firmly | joined that where one is perceived, the other must be seen. You |
| Tx:27.55 | pleasure, too, but only at the cost of pain.” These witnesses are | joined by many more. Each one seems different because it has a |
| Tx:27.65 | escape from condemnation is a need which those within the world are | joined in sharing. Yet they do not recognize their common need. For |
| Tx:27.85 | will leave the holy instant with your laughter and your brother's | joined with His. |
| Tx:28.30 | The miracle does nothing just because the minds are | joined and cannot separate. Yet in the dreaming has this been |
| Tx:28.30 | the gap between you, where the sickness has been bred. Thus are you | joined in sickness, to preserve the little gap unhealed, where |
| Tx:28.32 | joining cover it. Where is the gap between the waves when they have | joined and covered up the space which seemed to keep them separate |
| Tx:28.32 | little while? Where are the grounds for sickness when the minds have | joined to close the little gap between them where the seeds of |
| Tx:28.39 | that is your brother, as is yours to him. Your mind and his are | joined in brotherhood. His body and his dreams but seem to make a |
| Tx:28.39 | body and his dreams but seem to make a little gap, where yours have | joined with his. |
| Tx:28.43 | from Itself. The gap between your bodies matters not, for what is | joined in Him is always one. No one is sick if someone else accepts |
| Tx:28.43 | them vacant. And the Father comes to join His Son the Holy Spirit | joined. |
| Tx:28.45 | complete and perfect, lies in every one of them. And they are | joined because what is in one is in them all. How holy is the |
| Tx:28.61 | You accept it wholly or accept it not. What is unseparated must be | joined. And what is joined cannot be separate. |
| Tx:28.61 | or accept it not. What is unseparated must be joined. And what is | joined cannot be separate. |
| Tx:29.34 | and from this quiet come the happy dreams in which your hands are | joined in innocence. These are not hands that grasp in dreams of |
| Tx:30.32 | all effects that it will ever have. It needs but two. These two are | joined before there can be a decision. Let this be the one reminder |
| Tx:30.35 | it is not your will that it be bound. What lies in you has | joined with God Himself in all creation's birth. Remember He Who has |
| Tx:30.48 | of Heaven's Son in Heaven is, for there the mind of Father and Son | joined in creation which can have no end. You have not two realities, |
| Tx:30.59 | feet still touching earth. Yet is he glad to wait till every hand is | joined and every heart made ready to arise and go with him. For thus |
| Tx:30.63 | path been surely set away from idols toward reality. For when they | joined their hands, it was Christ's hand they took, and they will |
| Tx:30.69 | The Will of God forever lies in those whose hands are | joined. Until they joined, they thought He was their enemy. But when |
| Tx:30.69 | Will of God forever lies in those whose hands are joined. Until they | joined, they thought He was their enemy. But when they joined and |
| Tx:30.69 | Until they joined, they thought He was their enemy. But when they | joined and shared a purpose, they were free to learn their will is |
| Tx:30.88 | We have one Interpreter. And through His use of symbols are we | joined so that they mean the same to all of us. Our common language |
| Tx:31.88 | seen apart from Him. They will redeem the world, for they are | joined in all the power of the Will of God. And what they will is |
| W1:18.1 | neutral or unimportant. It also emphasizes the idea that minds are | joined, which will be given increasing stress later. |
| W1:19.2 | Today we are again emphasizing the fact that minds are | joined. This is rarely a wholly welcome idea at first, since it seems |
| W1:45.10 | toward which the exercises for today are directed. Here is your mind | joined with the Mind of God. Here are your thoughts one with His. |
| W1:73.14 | Then let your will assert itself, | joined with the power of God and united with your Self. Put the rest |
| W1:75.9 | He will show you what true vision sees. It is His Will, and you have | joined with Him. Wait patiently for Him. He will be there. The light |
| W1:85.2 | and light cannot go together, but light and vision must be | joined for me to see. To see, I must lay grievances aside. I want to |
| W1:154.3 | and to succeed in everything you do that is related to it. God has | joined His Son in this, and thus His Son becomes His messenger of |
| W1:154.4 | So is its Self the one reality in which its will and that of God are | joined. |
| W1:157.4 | today, for what you ask for now is what He wills. And having | joined your will with His this day, what you are asking must be given |
| W1:158.5 | vision He can give to anyone who asks. The Father's Will and His are | joined in knowledge. Yet there is a vision which the Holy Spirit sees |
| W1:160.8 | your Father, nor is your Creator stranger made to you. Whom God has | joined remains forever one, at home in Him, no stranger to Himself. |
| W1:182.4 | the pure reflection of the light above, wherein are earth and Heaven | joined as one. |

| W1:195.4 | makes no comparisons. And gratitude can only be sincere if it is | joined to love. We offer thanks to God our Father that in us all |
| W1:197.2 | are not seen as one, and freedom and salvation are perceived as | joined, with strength beside them, to be sought and claimed and found |
| W2:221.2 | you will hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours. Our minds are | joined. We wait with one intent—to hear our Father's answer to our |
| W2:WIW.5 | Let us not rest content until the world has | joined our changed perception. Let us not be satisfied until |
| W2:313.2 | Brother, come and join with me today. We save the world when we are | joined. For in our vision it becomes as holy as the light in us. |
| W2:WAI.2 | you and I, we found a single purpose that we shared. And thus you | joined with me. So what I am are you as well. The truth of what we |
| W2:353.1 | that I share with Him. Nothing is mine alone, for He and I have | joined in purpose. Thus has learning come almost to its appointed |

| Tx:5.46 | Joining the Atonement, which I have repeatedly asked you to do, is | |
| Tx:6.38 | the light of the world. Each of us is the light of the world, and by | joining our minds in this light, we proclaim the Kingdom of God |
| Tx:8.37 | upon you by your acceptance of me. My reality is yours and His. By | joining your will with mine, you are signifying your awareness that |
| Tx:8.54 | you do not interpret their bodies and yours solely as a means of | joining their minds and uniting them with yours and mine. This |

| Tx:14.54 | but put them together and the system of thought which arises from | joining them is incoherent and utterly chaotic. For form is not |
| Tx:16.13 | of the Sonship as one has been made. When you have made this | joining as the Holy Spirit bids you and have offered it to Him to use |
| Tx:16.48 | The special relationship is a strange and unnatural ego device for | joining hell and Heaven and making them indistinguishable. And the |

| Tx:18.30 | for no two minds can join in the desire for love without love's | joining them. |
| Tx:18.46 | the peace of one is an equal threat to the other. The power of | joining and its blessing lie in the fact that it is now impossible |
| Tx:18.59 | you will realize that it is a sudden unawareness of the body and a | joining of yourself and something else in which your mind enlarges to |
| Tx:18.76 | from the rest. Nor does a fence surround it, preventing it from | joining with the rest and keeping it apart from its Creator. This |
| Tx:19.2 | shares it, He has given it, and so He heals through you. It is this | joining Him in a united purpose which makes this purpose real because |
| Tx:19.40 | you and from you reach to everyone who calls and bring him rest by | joining you. |
| Tx:20.26 | you for one another and for himself. Here there is only holiness and | joining without limit. For what is Heaven but union, direct and |

| Tx:23.9 | cannot join. They are the same, and they are nothing. Their | joining lies in nothingness; two are as meaningless as one or as a |
| Tx:26.2 | of oneness. It is a picture of a complete disunity and total lack of | joining. Around each entity is built a wall so seeming solid that it |
| Tx:26.71 | except within the present. Future loss is not your fear. But present | joining is your dread. Who can feel desolation except now? A future |
| Tx:28.32 | as fast, as water rushes in to close the gap and as the waves in | joining cover it. Where is the gap between the waves when they have |

| Tx:19.110 | You came this far because the | journey was your choice. And no one undertakes to do what he believes |
| Tx:19.110 | Father. Here is the only purpose that gives this world and the long | journey through this world whatever meaning lies in them. Beyond this |

| Tx:26.43 | no hindrance to the Will of God nor any need that you repeat again a | journey that was over long ago. Look gently on each other and behold |
| Tx:31.25 | in the darkness and alone. Yet these are but appearances of what the | journey is and how it must be made. For next to you is One Who holds |
| Tx:31.41 | the world will lead within, when every road was made to separate the | journey from the purpose it must have unless it be but futile |
| Tx:31.42 | There is no road that leads away from Him. A | journey from yourself does not exist. How foolish and insane it is to |
| Tx:31.97 | in the abode You set for Him before time was, in calm eternity. The | journey closes, ending at the place where it began. No trace of it |
| W1:127.11 | our Self. At least three times an hour think of one who makes the | journey with you and who came to learn what you must learn. And as he |
| W1:155.11 | along the way that truth points out to us. This is our final | journey, which we make for everyone. We must not lose our way. For as |
| W1:157.8 | truth, the holy Guide to Heaven given you has dreamed for you this | journey which you make and start today with the experience this day |
| W1:158.3 | on it. For time but seems to go in one direction. We but undertake a | journey that is over. Yet it seems to have a future still unknown to |
| W1:158.4 | will come to end your doubting has been set. For we but see the | journey from the point at which it ended, looking back on it, |
| W1:158.6 | and by love. Here are all contradictions reconciled, for here the | journey ends. Experience, unlearned, untaught, unseen, is merely |
| W1:169.8 | We have repeated several times before that you but make a | journey that is done. For oneness must be here. Whatever time the |
| W1:R5.8 | I take the | journey with you. For I share your doubts and fears a little while, |
| W1:R5.9 | again each time I lead a brother safely to the place at which the | journey ends and is forgot. I am renewed each time a brother learns |
| W1:R5.9 | I have forgotten no one. Help me now to lead you back to where the | journey was begun, to make another choice with me. |
| W1:I2.3 | And so we start our | journey beyond words by concentrating first on what impedes our |
| W1:182.12 | the toys of battle you have made. And now the way is open, and the | journey has an end in sight at last. Be still a moment and go home |
| W1:194.1 | from earth! How close are we approaching to our goal! How short the | journey still to be pursued! |
| W2:225.2 | that we seek as we accomplish these few final steps which end a | journey that was not begun. |

| Tx:7.106 | what you are. But if your joy is what you are], you are denying | joy. The miracle is therefore a lesson in what joy is. Being a lesson |
| Tx:7.106 | are], you are denying joy. The miracle is therefore a lesson in what | joy is. Being a lesson in sharing, it is a lesson in love, which is |
| Tx:7.106 | joy is. Being a lesson in sharing, it is a lesson in love, which is | joy. Every miracle is thus a lesson in truth, and by offering truth |
| Tx:7.106 | by offering truth you are learning the difference between pain and | joy. |
| Tx:7.107 | The Holy Spirit will always guide you truly, because your | joy is His. This is His Will for everyone, because He speaks for the |
| Tx:7.107 | Will for everyone, because He speaks for the Kingdom of God which is | joy. Following Him is therefore the easiest thing in the world and |
| Tx:7.109 | without any sense of loss? Does it teach him that this giving is his | joy and that God Himself thanks him for his giving? That is the only |
| Tx:8.12 | that the Holy Spirit teaches you the difference between pain and | joy. That is the same as saying that He teaches you the difference |
| Tx:8.13 | than He could will to be without you. This is freedom and this is | joy. Deny yourself this and you are denying God His Kingdom because |
| Tx:8.16 | perfectly, He wills to fulfill it perfectly, because that is His | joy and yours. |
| Tx:8.17 | To fulfill the Will of God perfectly is the only | joy and peace that can be fully known, because it is the only |
| Tx:8.21 | are teaching what you are. He will respond either with pain or with | joy, depending on which teacher you are following. He will be |
| Tx:8.25 | If God's Will for you is complete peace and | joy, unless you experience only this you must be refusing to |
| Tx:8.31 | It is the power by which you separate or join and experience pain or | joy accordingly. My will cannot overcome yours, because yours is as |
| Tx:8.38 | we do bear witness to the Will of the Father for His Son and to our | joy in uniting with His Will for us. |
| Tx:8.43 | over His Kingdom, it has no power. No one created by God can find | joy in anything except the eternal. That is not because he is |
| Tx:8.43 | and His Sons create is eternal, and in this and this only is their | joy. |
| Tx:8.44 | he had hurt him. Yet when he came home, the father welcomed him with | joy, because only the son himself was his father's treasure. He |
| Tx:8.45 | God extended Himself to you. Can the creations of God Himself take | joy in what is not real? And what is real except the creations of God |
| Tx:8.46 | then, can you accept anything else or give anything else and expect | joy in return? And what else but joy would you want? You made neither |
| Tx:8.46 | or give anything else and expect joy in return? And what else but | joy would you want? You made neither yourself nor your function. You |
| Tx:8.47 | Will for you. He would not withhold creation from you, because His | joy is in it. You cannot find joy except as God does. His joy lay in |
| Tx:8.47 | creation from you, because His joy is in it. You cannot find | joy except as God does. His joy lay in creating you, and He extends |
| Tx:8.47 | His joy is in it. You cannot find joy except as God does. His | joy lay in creating you, and He extends His Fatherhood to you so that |
| Tx:8.50 | is. Through our creations, we extend our love and thus increase the | joy of the Holy Trinity. You do not understand this for a very simple |
| Tx:8.60 | curriculum is never depressing, because it is a curriculum of | joy. Whenever the reaction to learning is depression, it is only |
| Tx:8.65 | because only extension is the mind's function. The opposite of | joy is depression. When your learning promotes depression instead of |
| Tx:8.65 | joy is depression. When your learning promotes depression instead of | joy, you cannot be listening to God's joyous Teacher, and you must be |
| Tx:8.66 | of attack of any kind and to entertain even the possibility that | joy could possibly result is a clear-cut indication of a poor |
| Tx:8.67 | Joy is unified purpose, and unified purpose is only God's. When yours | |
| Tx:9.31 | your ears. How, then, can you perceive Him at all? If you inspire | joy, and others react to you with joy even though you are not |
| Tx:9.31 | Him at all? If you inspire joy, and others react to you with | joy even though you are not experiencing joy yourself, there must be |
| Tx:9.31 | others react to you with joy even though you are not experiencing | joy yourself, there must be something in you that is capable of |
| Tx:9.31 | you that is capable of producing it. If it is in you and can produce | joy, and if you see that it does produce joy in others, you must be |
| Tx:9.31 | is in you and can produce joy, and if you see that it does produce | joy in others, you must be dissociating it in yourself. |
| Tx:9.32 | It seems to you that the Holy Spirit does not produce | joy consistently in you only because you do not consistently arouse |
| Tx:9.32 | joy consistently in you only because you do not consistently arouse | joy in others. Their reactions to you are your evaluations of His |
| Tx:9.32 | When you are inconsistent, you will not always give rise to | joy and so you will not always recognize His consistency. What you |
| Tx:9.38 | chances, not because they will not return, but because delay of | joy is needless. God wills you perfect happiness now. Is it possible |
| Tx:9.55 | is not obscure nor hidden, but its obviousness to you lies in the | joy you bring to its witnesses, who show it to you. They attest to |
| Tx:9.55 | shared. God wants you to behold what He created, because it is His | joy. |
| Tx:9.69 | reality brings more than merely lack of fear. In this decision lie | joy and peace and the glory of creation. Offer the Holy Spirit only |
| Tx:9.93 | The rituals of the god of sickness are strange and very demanding. | Joy is never permitted, for depression is the sign of allegiance to |
| Tx:9.94 | by the message you give to them. Do not attribute your denial of | joy to them, or you cannot see the spark in them that could bring joy |
| Tx:9.94 | of joy to them, or you cannot see the spark in them that could bring | joy to you. It is the denial of the spark that brings depression, and |
| Tx:9.96 | he made the god of depression. This was his alternative to | joy, because he would not accept the fact that, although he was a |
| Tx:9.103 | anywhere else or in any other condition. Do not deny yourself the | joy which was created for you for the misery you have made for |
| Tx:10.4 | need of you as I have. Will you not answer the call of love with | joy? |
| Tx:10.10 | limit is God's Will for you because only this can bring you the | joy which is His and which He wills to share with you. Your love is |
| Tx:10.24 | of Him. Oh, my children, if you knew what God wills for you, your | joy would be complete! And what He wills has happened, for it was |
| Tx:10.25 | see such beauty that you will know it is not of you. Out of your | joy you will create beauty in His name, for your joy could no more be |
| Tx:10.25 | of you. Out of your joy you will create beauty in His name, for your | joy could no more be contained than His. The bleak little world will |
| Tx:10.25 | will vanish into nothingness, and your heart will be so filled with | joy that it will leap into Heaven and into the Presence of God. I |
| Tx:10.64 | must compel your allegiance gladly because it is the symbol of | joy. Its whole compelling power lies in the fact that it represents |
| Tx:11.39 | Holy Spirit offers you another promise, and one that will lead to | joy. For His promise is always, “Seek and you will find,” and under |
| Tx:11.92 | but the journey on which his Father sets him is one of release and | joy. The Father is not cruel, and His Son cannot hurt himself. The |
| Tx:12.9 | for it is the recognition of love without fear. There will be great | joy in Heaven on your homecoming, and the joy will be yours. For the |
| Tx:12.9 | fear. There will be great joy in Heaven on your homecoming, and the | joy will be yours. For the redeemed son of man is the guiltless Son |
| Tx:12.19 | that you may accept the magnitude of your Father in peace and | joy. But exempt no one from your love, or you will be hiding a dark |
| Tx:12.54 | to love. The sick who ask for love are grateful for it, and in their | joy, they shine with holy thanks. And this they offer you, who gave |
| Tx:12.54 | they shine with holy thanks. And this they offer you, who gave them | joy. They are your guides to joy, for having received it of you, they |
| Tx:12.54 | And this they offer you, who gave them joy. They are your guides to | joy, for having received it of you, they would keep it. You have |
| Tx:12.55 | Holy Son. Light is unlimited and spreads across this world in quiet | joy. All those you brought with you will shine on you, and you will |
| Tx:12.67 | world is but your welcome of what always was. Therefore, the call of | joy is in it, and your glad response is your awakening to what you |
| Tx:12.68 | it demands you lay all of the things it bids you get, leaving you no | joy in them. |
| Tx:12.74 | Then follow Him in | joy, with faith that He will lead you safely through all dangers to |
| Tx:12.76 | most holy Son, where it cannot abide. Healing in time is needed, for | joy cannot establish its eternal reign where sorrow dwells. You dwell |
| Tx:13.16 | be undone. With everyone whom you release from guilt, great is the | joy in Heaven, where the witnesses to your fatherhood rejoice. |
| Tx:13.36 | you have heard the hymn of freedom rising unto Heaven. Gladness and | joy belong to God for your release, because you made it not. Yet as |
| Tx:13.69 | miracle teaches you that you have chosen guiltlessness, freedom, and | joy. It is not a cause, but an effect. It is the natural result of |
| Tx:13.70 | dispelling darkness, he became afraid of darkness and of light. The | joy of learning that darkness has no power over the Son of God is the |
| Tx:13.70 | the Holy Spirit teaches and would have you teach with Him. It is His | joy to teach it, as it will be yours. |
| Tx:13.91 | Give up this frantic and insane attempt, which cheats you of the | joy of living with your God and Father, and awaking gladly to His |
| Tx:14.7 | Blessed Son of a wholly blessing Father, | joy was created for you. Who can condemn whom God has blessed? There |
| Tx:14.12 | Within its holy circle is everyone whom God created as His Son. | Joy is its unifying attribute, with no one left outside to suffer |
| Tx:14.41 | of their Father's Love. There, fear of death will be replaced with | joy of living. For God is Life, and they abide in Life. [Life is as |
| Tx:15.9 | happiness is there. No darkness is remembered, and immortality and | joy are now. |
| Tx:15.17 | to translate time into eternity. Blessed is God's Teacher, Whose | joy it is to teach God's holy Son his holiness. His joy is not |
| Tx:15.17 | Teacher, Whose joy it is to teach God's holy Son his holiness. His | joy is not contained in time. His teaching is for you because His joy |
| Tx:15.17 | joy is not contained in time. His teaching is for you because His | joy is yours. Through Him you stand before God's altar, where He |
| Tx:15.26 | For every decision you make does answer this and invites sorrow or | joy accordingly. |
| Tx:15.108 | it re-establishes, love comes of itself. Let no despair darken the | joy of Christmas, for the time of Christ is meaningless apart from |
| Tx:15.108 | joy of Christmas, for the time of Christ is meaningless apart from | joy. Let us join in celebrating peace by demanding no sacrifice of |
| Tx:15.112 | So will the year begin in | joy and freedom. There is much to do, and we have been long delayed. |
| Tx:16.17 | This is a year of | joy in which your listening will increase, and peace will grow with |
| Tx:16.17 | have listened to His interpretation, the results have brought you | joy. Would you prefer the results of your interpretation, considering |
| Tx:16.21 | there was pain, and suffering has disappeared, to be replaced by | joy. |
| Tx:16.27 | own willingness to teach. Though you seemed to suffer for it, the | joy of teaching will yet be yours. For the joy of teaching is in the |
| Tx:16.27 | to suffer for it, the joy of teaching will yet be yours. For the | joy of teaching is in the learner, who offers it to the teacher in |
| Tx:16.41 | Him, made from your willingness to unite with Him and created by His | joy in union with you. The journey that seemed to be endless is |
| Tx:16.68 | in glad astonishment that for all this you gave up nothing! The | joy of Heaven, which has no limit, is increased with each light that |
| Tx:17.7 | Nothing that you remember that made your heart seem to sing with | joy has ever brought you even a little part of the happiness this |
| Tx:17.36 | The power of Heaven, the love of God, the tears of Christ, and the | joy of His eternal Spirit are marshaled to defend you from your own |
| Tx:18.12 | together out of this world and through another to the loveliness and | joy the other holds within it. Would you still further weaken and |
| Tx:18.20 | will remain, not as a source of pain and guilt, but as a source of | joy and freedom. It will not be for you alone, for therein lay its |
| Tx:18.45 | here. It will become the happy dream through which He can spread | joy to thousands on thousands who believe that love is fear, not |
| Tx:18.61 | the barriers of time and space, the sudden experience of peace and | joy, and, above all, the lack of awareness of the body and of the |
| Tx:18.78 | which makes up your little kingdom. And realize the life and | joy which love would bring to it from where it comes and where it |
| Tx:19.69 | The body can bring you neither peace nor turmoil; neither pain nor | joy. It is a means and not an end. It has no purpose of itself, but |
| Tx:19.73 | and receiver are the same. The Holy Spirit tells you this with | joy. The ego hides it, for it would keep you unaware of it. Who would |
| Tx:19.91 | the face of Christ. Yet as His face rises beyond it, shining with | joy because He is in His Father's Love, peace will lightly brush the |
| Tx:19.109 | crucified give pain because they are in pain. But the redeemed give | joy because they have been healed of pain. Everyone gives as he |
| Tx:20.4 | and your redemption with him. The time of Easter is a time of | joy and not of mourning. Look on your risen Friend and celebrate his |
| Tx:20.13 | on him with the new vision that looks upon the lilies and brings you | joy. We go beyond the veil of fear, lighting each other's way. The |
| Tx:20.24 | to its insane answer. How happy did it make you? Did you meet with | joy to bless the Son of God and give him thanks for all the happiness |
| Tx:20.25 | cast down in darkness they remember not the light, do not leap up in | joy the instant they are made free. It takes a while for them to |
| Tx:20.58 | be brought in line before your holy relationship can bring you only | joy. But we have also said the means to meet the Holy Spirit's goal |
| Tx:20.68 | Would you not willingly be free of misery and learn again of | joy? Your holy relationship offers all this to you. As it was given |
| Tx:20.69 | brother sinless that Christ may rise before your vision and give you | joy. And place no value on your brother's body, which holds him to |
| Tx:20.76 | These gentle sights and sounds are looked on happily and heard with | joy. They are His substitutes for all the terrifying sights and |
| Tx:21.2 | which one you chose. [The world you see but shows you how much | joy you have allowed yourself to see in you and to accept as yours. |
| Tx:21.2 | as yours. And if this is its meaning, then the power to give it | joy must lie within you.] |
| Tx:21.5 | the means by which this course is learned will bring to you the | joy it promises. If you believed it would, the learning of it would |
| Tx:21.13 | willingness you need to have your whole relationship transformed to | joy; the little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit for which He gives |
| Tx:21.84 | because it is attained by giving up the wish for the inconstant. | Joy cannot be perceived except through constant vision. And constant |
| Tx:21.86 | The constancy of | joy is a condition quite alien to your understanding. Yet if you |
| Tx:22.16 | garments are those who seek illusions covered and hidden from the | joy of truth. |
| Tx:22.17 | Truth is the opposite of illusions because it offers | joy. What else but joy could be the opposite of misery? To leave one |
| Tx:22.17 | is the opposite of illusions because it offers joy. What else but | joy could be the opposite of misery? To leave one kind of misery and |
| Tx:22.17 | an escape. To change illusions is to make no change. The search for | joy in misery is senseless, for how could joy be found in misery? All |
| Tx:22.17 | no change. The search for joy in misery is senseless, for how could | joy be found in misery? All that is possible in the dark world of |
| Tx:22.17 | out of it, see them as different, and define the difference as | joy. Yet to perceive a difference where none exists will surely fail |
| Tx:22.18 | irrelevant. No form of misery in reason's eyes can be confused with | joy. Joy is eternal. You can be sure indeed that any seeming |
| Tx:22.18 | No form of misery in reason's eyes can be confused with joy. | Joy is eternal. You can be sure indeed that any seeming happiness |
| Tx:22.18 | indeed that any seeming happiness that does not last is really fear. | Joy does not turn to sorrow, for the eternal cannot change. But |
| Tx:22.18 | sorrow, for the eternal cannot change. But sorrow can be turned to | joy, for time gives way to the eternal. Only the timeless must remain |
| Tx:22.21 | side, but reason tells you that misery lies only on one side and | joy upon the other. |
| Tx:22.22 | where you can pause uncertainly, waiting to choose between the | joy of Heaven and the misery of hell. Until you choose Heaven, you |
| Tx:22.25 | it seem possible that what you made is yours. You would condemn His | joy to misery and make Him different. And all the misery you made has |
| Tx:22.27 | have this holy home be yours as well? No misery is here, but only | joy. |
| Tx:22.64 | in one brings gladness to the other because they are the same. | Joy is unlimited because each shining thought of love extends its |
| Tx:24.13 | limits? You have a function in salvation. Its pursuit will bring you | joy. But the pursuit of specialness must bring you pain. Here is a |
| Tx:24.25 | your plan has failed and will forever fail to bring you peace and | joy of any kind? Through this despair you travel now, yet it is but |
| Tx:24.32 | by a world of loveliness they do not see. Freedom and peace and | joy stand there beside the bier on which they sleep and call them to |
| Tx:24.40 | that it is one with Him and with His Father. Specialness, too, takes | joy in what it sees, although it is not true. Yet what you seek for |
| Tx:24.40 | sees, although it is not true. Yet what you seek for is a source of | joy as you conceive it. What you wish is true for you. Nor is it |
| Tx:24.43 | in him and love to look upon, it saw in you and looks on still with | joy. Yet is it joy to look upon decay and madness and believe this |
| Tx:24.43 | to look upon, it saw in you and looks on still with joy. Yet is it | joy to look upon decay and madness and believe this crumbling thing, |
| Tx:24.46 | that these sights are yours to look upon with Him and share His | joy. His perfect lack of specialness He offers you that you may save |
| Tx:24.71 | the travesty on God's creation. For as His Son's creation gave Him | joy and witness to His love and shared His purpose, so does the body |
| Tx:25.20 | God cherishes creation as the perfect Father that He is. And so His | joy is made complete when any part of Him joins in His praise, to |
| Tx:25.20 | made complete when any part of Him joins in His praise, to share His | joy. This brother is His perfect gift to you. And He is glad and |
| Tx:25.20 | And all His thanks and gladness shine on you who would complete His | joy along with Him. And thus is yours completed. Not one ray of |
| Tx:25.28 | will reinterpret all temptation as just another chance to bring him | joy. How can a misperception be a sin? Let all your brother's errors |
| Tx:25.32 | that this is so, seeing their safety in this happy fact. Their | joy is in the innocence they see. And thus they seek for it because |
| Tx:25.32 | to behold it and rejoice. Everyone seeks for what will bring him | joy as he defines it. It is not the aim as such that varies. Yet it |
| Tx:25.33 | rejoice.” And while you think that suffering and sin will bring you | joy, so long will they be there for you to see. Nothing is harmful or |
| Tx:25.33 | same effects, believing them to be the bringers of rejoicing and of | joy. Even in Heaven does this law obtain. The Son of God creates to |
| Tx:25.33 | in Heaven does this law obtain. The Son of God creates to bring him | joy, sharing his Father's purpose in his own creation that his joy |
| Tx:25.33 | him joy, sharing his Father's purpose in his own creation that his | joy might be increased and God's along with his. |
| Tx:25.40 | the only one he has in truth, you are depriving him of all the | joy he would have found if he fulfilled the role God gave to him. But |
| Tx:25.41 | sinlessness will be when you perceive it! And how great will be your | joy, when he is free to offer you the gift of sight God gave to him |
| Tx:25.54 | nothing is contradicted that would lead the Son of God to sanity and | joy. Nothing attests to death and cruelty, to separation, and to |
| Tx:25.59 | you remember this and so emerge from deepest mourning into perfect | joy. Accept the function that has been assigned to you in God's Own |
| Tx:25.72 | the gifts the innocent deserve. And every one that you accept brings | joy to Him as well as you. He knows that Heaven is richer made by |
| Tx:26.26 | to see. Each flower shines in light, and every bird sings of the | joy of Heaven. There is no sadness, and there is no parting here, for |
| Tx:26.27 | does every light of heaven come to be rekindled and increased in | joy. For here is what was lost restored to them and all their |
| Tx:26.29 | withholds the wealth of Heaven from you! And how great will be the | joy in Heaven when you join the mighty chorus to the love of God! |
| Tx:26.53 | Forgiveness is the only function here and serves to bring the | joy this world denies to every aspect of God's Son where sin was |
| Tx:26.80 | one comes home. The incomplete is made complete again, and Heaven's | joy has been increased because what is its own has been restored to |
| Tx:27.39 | which of them are true? Which ones establish peace and offer | joy? And which can bring escape from all the pain of which this world |
| Tx:27.70 | between a sleeping death and dreams of evil or a happy wakening and | joy of life. What could you choose between but life or death, waking |
| Tx:27.73 | his brother was his friend.] God willed he waken gently and with | joy. And gave him means to waken without fear. Accept the dream He |
| Tx:28.46 | the gap? The seeds of sickness come from the belief that there is | joy in separation, and its giving up would be a sacrifice. But |
| Tx:28.54 | made itself to be what it is not. It does not seek to make of pain a | joy and look for lasting pleasure in the dust. It does not tell you |
| Tx:29.14 | His host can meet with Him. And nowhere else His gifts of peace and | joy and all the happiness His Presence brings can be obtained. For |
| Tx:29.27 | for they are made of fear. The thin disguise of pleasure and of | joy in which they may be wrapped but slightly veils the heavy lump of |
| Tx:29.29 | the function of the dream. And dreams of sadness thus are turned to | joy. |
| Tx:29.32 | brings you nearer to your wakening to peace eternal and to endless | joy. |
| Tx:29.67 | once a dream of judgment now has changed into a dream where all is | joy because that is the purpose which it has. Only forgiving dreams |
| Tx:30.32 | but two to understand that they cannot decide alone to guarantee the | joy they asked for will be wholly shared. For they have understood |
| Tx:30.52 | my children. Do not grieve for them. Their dancing never brought you | joy. But neither were they things to frighten you nor make you safe |
| Tx:30.65 | content has not been bought at fearful price in coins of suffering? | Joy has no cost. It is your sacred right, and what you pay for is not |
| Tx:31.7 | no plan for safety you can make that ever will succeed. There is no | joy that you can seek for here and hope to find. Yet this is not the |
| Tx:31.11 | rather, to the deeper call beyond it that appeals for peace and | joy. And all the world will give you joy and peace. For as you hear, |
| Tx:31.11 | it that appeals for peace and joy. And all the world will give you | joy and peace. For as you hear, you answer. And behold! Your answer |
| Tx:31.87 | [He would remove all misery from you, whom God created altars unto | joy.] He would not leave you comfortless, alone in dreams of hell, |
| W1:20.2 | mind is totally undisciplined, and you cannot distinguish between | joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, love and fear. You are now |
| W1:41.3 | you wherever you go. You can never suffer because the Source of all | joy goes with you wherever you go. You can never be alone because the |
| W1:55.4 | return to my awareness, I will see a world of peace and safety and | joy. It is this I choose to see in place of what I look on now. |
| W1:58.3 | me alone. Everyone and everything I see in its light shares in the | joy it brings to me. There is nothing that is apart from this joy |
| W1:58.3 | in the joy it brings to me. There is nothing that is apart from this | joy because there is nothing that does not share my holiness. As I |
| W1:59.2 | He rests in me in absolute peace? How can I suffer when love and | joy surround me through Him? Let me not cherish illusions about |
| W1:71.9 | and anger. But God's plan will succeed. It will lead to release and | joy. |
| W1:74.11 | detected. If you are succeeding, you will feel a deep sense of | joy and an increased alertness rather than a feeling of drowsiness |
| W1:74.11 | alertness rather than a feeling of drowsiness and enervation. | Joy characterizes peace. By this experience will you recognize that |
| W1:76.11 | you more. About the love your Father has for you. About the endless | joy He offers you. About His yearning for His only Son, created as |
| W1:82.5 | And unless I fulfill my function, I will not experience the | joy that God intends for me. |
| W1:93.4 | you are as pure and holy as you were created, and that light and | joy and peace abide in you? Your image of yourself cannot withstand |
| W1:93.6 | is meaningless. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God, and light and | joy and peace abide in you. |
| W1:93.7 | You are and will forever be exactly as you were created. Light and | joy and peace abide in you because God put them there. |
| W1:93.9 | Light and | joy and peace abide in me. My sinlessness is guaranteed by God. |
| W1:93.11 | Let it come into its own. Here you are. This is you. And light and | joy and peace abide in you because this is so. |
| W1:93.13 | Light and | joy and peace abide in me. My sinlessness is guaranteed by God. |
| W1:93.16 | Light and | joy and peace abide in you. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. |
| W1:95.16 | the words convey. You are One Self, united and secure in light and | joy and peace. You are God's Son, One Self with one Creator and one |
| W1:96.5 | And the mind which serves the Spirit is at peace and filled with | joy. Its power comes from Spirit, and it is fulfilling happily its |
| W1:96.16 | remains uncertain yet a little while. Be not dismayed by this. The | joy your Self experiences it will save for you, and it will yet be |
| W1:97.2 | Spirit lovingly endowed with all your Father's love and peace and | joy. You are the Spirit which completes Himself and shares His |
| W1:98.6 | offer guaranteeing you your full release from pain of every kind and | joy the world does not contain. You can exchange a little of your |

| W1:100.2 | This part is as essential to His plan as to your happiness. Your | joy must be complete to let His plan be understood by those to whom |

| W1:100.3 | You are indeed essential to God's plan. Without your joy, His | joy is incomplete. Without your smile, the world cannot be saved. |
| W1:100.4 | as your light increases every light that shines in Heaven, so your | joy on earth calls to all minds to let their sorrows go and take |
| W1:100.4 | beside you in God's plan. God's messengers are joyous, and their | joy heals sorrow and despair. They are the proof that God wills |
| W1:100.6 | Today we will attempt to understand | joy is our function here. If you are sad, your part is unfulfilled |
| W1:100.6 | sad, your part is unfulfilled and all the world is thus deprived of | joy along with you. God asks that you be happy so the world can see |
| W1:100.6 | see how much He loves His Son and wills no sorrow rises to abate his | joy; no fear besets him to disturb his peace. |
| W1:100.9 | Now let us try to find that | joy which proves to us and all the world God's Will for us. It is |
| W1:101.6 | happiness because there is no sin, and suffering is causeless. | Joy is just, and pain is but the sign you have misunderstood yourself. |
| W1:101.9 | you start your practice periods, and then attempt again to find the | joy these thoughts will introduce into your mind. Give these five |
| W1:103.1 | love is not. Love has no limits, being everywhere. And therefore | joy is everywhere as well. Yet can the mind deny that this is so, |
| W1:103.1 | there are gaps in love where sin can enter, bringing pain instead of | joy. |
| W1:103.2 | bear witness to the fear of God, forgetting being Love, He must be | joy. |
| W1:103.4 | God, being Love, is also happiness. To fear Him is to be afraid of | joy. |
| W1:103.6 | welcome all the happiness it brings, as truth replaces fear, and | joy becomes what you expect to take the place of pain. God being |
| W1:104.1 | Today's idea continues with the thought that | joy and peace are not but idle dreams. They are your right because of |
| W1:104.5 | I seek but what belongs to me in truth, and | joy and peace are my inheritance. |
| W1:104.7 | within our minds before His altar, where His gifts of peace and | joy are welcome and to which we come to find what has been given us |
| W1:104.8 | today by simply recognizing that His Will is done already and that | joy and peace belong to us as His eternal gifts. We will not let |
| W1:104.9 | I seek but what belongs to me in truth. God's gifts of | joy and peace are all I want. |
| W1:105.1 | God's peace and | joy are yours. Today we will accept them, knowing they belong to us. |
| W1:105.4 | Accept God's peace and | joy, and you will learn a different way of looking at a gift. God's |
| W1:105.4 | are given away. They but increase thereby. As Heaven's peace and | joy intensify when you accept them as God's gift to you, so does the |
| W1:105.4 | joy intensify when you accept them as God's gift to you, so does the | joy of your Creator grow when you accept His joy and peace as yours. |
| W1:105.4 | to you, so does the joy of your Creator grow when you accept His | joy and peace as yours. |
| W1:105.6 | Today accept God's peace and | joy as yours. Let Him complete Himself as He defines completion. You |
| W1:105.6 | He cannot give through loss. No more can you. Receive His gift of | joy and peace today, and He will thank you for your gift to Him. |
| W1:105.7 | thinking of those brothers who have been denied by you the peace and | joy that are their right under the equal laws of God. Here you denied |
| W1:105.8 | My brother, peace and | joy I offer you, that I may have God's peace and joy as mine. |
| W1:105.8 | brother, peace and joy I offer you, that I may have God's peace and | joy as mine. |
| W1:105.9 | success today. Now are you ready to accept the gift of peace and | joy which God has given you. Now are you ready to experience the joy |
| W1:105.9 | and joy which God has given you. Now are you ready to experience the | joy and peace you have denied yourself. Now you can say, “God's peace |
| W1:105.9 | peace you have denied yourself. Now you can say, “God's peace and | joy are mine,” for you have given what you would receive. |
| W1:105.10 | your mind as we suggest, for you have let all bars to peace and | joy be lifted up, and what is yours can come to you at last. So tell |
| W1:105.10 | is yours can come to you at last. So tell yourself “God's peace and | joy are mine,” and close your eyes a while, and let His Voice assure |
| W1:105.13 | My brother, peace and | joy I offer you, that I may have God's peace and joy as mine. |
| W1:105.13 | brother, peace and joy I offer you, that I may have God's peace and | joy as mine. |
| W1:107.11 | be fulfilled through you. To share His function is to share His | joy. His confidence is with you, as you say: |
| W1:112.2 | [93] Light and | joy and peace abide in me. I am the home of light and joy and peace. |
| W1:112.2 | [93] Light and joy and peace abide in me. I am the home of light and | joy and peace. I welcome them into the home I share with God, because |
| W1:112.5 | Light and | joy and peace abide in me. |
| W1:117.2 | happiness. Let me remember love is happiness and nothing else brings | joy. And so I choose to entertain no substitutes for love. |
| W1:117.3 | but what belongs to me in truth. Love is my heritage and with it | joy. These are the gifts my Father gave to me. I would accept all |
| W1:118.2 | [105] God's peace and | joy are mine. Today I will accept God's peace and joy in glad |
| W1:118.2 | God's peace and joy are mine. Today I will accept God's peace and | joy in glad exchange for all the substitutes which I have made for |
| W1:118.5 | God's peace and | joy are mine. |
| W1:122.2 | you, and more. It sparkles in your eyes as you awake and gives you | joy with which to meet the day. It soothes your forehead while you |
| W1:122.11 | it will be given you to feel the peace forgiveness offers and the | joy the lifting of the veil holds out to you. |
| W1:124.11 | that His return will be a sense of love you cannot understand, a | joy too deep for you to comprehend, a sight too holy for the body's |
| W1:128.1 | you can use in any way, nor anything at all that serves to give you | joy. Believe this thought, and you are saved from years of misery, |
| W1:128.6 | it belongs. But free its wings, and it will fly in sureness and in | joy to join its holy purpose. Let it rest in its Creator, there to be |
| W1:129.1 | but on exchanging it for what is far more satisfying, filled with | joy, and capable of offering you peace. Think you this world can |
| W1:135.20 | promises a future undisturbed, without a trace of sorrow and with | joy which constantly increases as this life becomes a holy instant, |
| W1:135.21 | yours, and it will be increased until the world is lighted up with | joy. And gladly will our brothers lay aside their cumbersome defenses |
| W1:135.26 | at not receiving what you will receive today. And in the light and | joy of simple truth, you will but wonder why you ever thought that |
| W1:137.13 | carry healing to the world, exchanging curse for blessing, pain for | joy, and separation for the peace of God. Is not a minute of the hour |
| W1:140.14 | the answer to our prayer be given us as we attend in silence and in | joy. This is the day when healing comes to us. This is the day when |
| W1:R4.12 | restored the world from darkness to the light, from grief to | joy, from pain to peace, from sin to holiness. God offers thanks to |
| W1:152.2 | everything, can loss be real? Can pain be part of peace, or grief of | joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a mind where love and perfect |
| W1:153.8 | the world, and we would not exchange for foolishness the endless | joy our function offers us. We would not let our happiness slip by |
| W1:153.15 | with God. Nor will we willingly give less at night in gratitude and | joy. |
| W1:157.1 | days and nights in celebrating death. Today you learn to feel the | joy of life. |
| W1:157.4 | light your mind and let it rest in still anticipation and in quiet | joy wherein you quickly leave the world behind. |
| W1:162.5 | like this has blessed the world? Who could despair when perfect | joy is yours, available to all as remedy for grief and misery, all |
| W1:164.7 | blindness and from misery. All that we see will but increase our | joy because its holiness reflects our own. We stand forgiven in the |
| W1:164.9 | world. But this you surely want—you can exchange all suffering for | joy this very day. Practice in earnest, and the gift is yours. Would |
| W1:165.3 | Who would deny his safety and his peace, his | joy, his healing and his peace of mind, his quiet rest, his calm |

| W1:190.10 | contains all of salvation's power. It is this: pain is illusion; | joy reality. Pain is but sleep; joy is awakening. Pain is deception; |
| W1:190.10 | power. It is this: pain is illusion; joy reality. Pain is but sleep; | joy is awakening. Pain is deception; joy alone is truth. |
| W1:190.10 | joy reality. Pain is but sleep; joy is awakening. Pain is deception; | joy alone is truth. |
| W1:190.11 | can be made—we choose between illusions and the truth, or pain and | joy, or hell and Heaven. Let our gratitude unto our Teacher fill our |
| W1:190.11 | unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are free to choose our | joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, the peace of God |
| W1:193.1 | eternal and forever gaining scope, eternally expanding in the | joy of full creation, and eternally open and wholly limitless in Him. |
| W1:193.4 | which crept into the mind of His most holy Son with peace and | joy fulfills His function now. He redirects each lesson you would |

| W1:197.5 | forever giving out, extending love, and adding to your never-ending | joy, while you forgive but to attack again. |
| W1:198.6 | words will save. His words contain all hope, all blessing and all | joy that ever can be found upon this earth. His words are born in |
| W1:199.7 | this gift to Him. For He would give you perfect freedom, perfect | joy, and hope that finds its full accomplishment in God. |
| W1:199.8 | Son will weep no more, and Heaven offers thanks for the increase of | joy your practice brings even to it. And God Himself extends His Love |
| W1:200.2 | of being saved by what can only hurt, of making peace of chaos, | joy of pain, and Heaven out of hell. Attempt no more to win through |
| W1:210.1 | [190] I choose the | joy of God instead of pain. Pain is my own idea. It is not a thought |
| W1:210.1 | God, but one I thought apart from Him and from His Will. His Will is | joy and only joy for His beloved Son. And that I choose instead of |

| W2:282.1 | asleep in dreams of death while truth remains forever living in the | joy of life. And this the choice to recognize the Self Whom God |
| W2:285.1 | Today I wake with | joy, expecting but the happy things of God to come to me. I ask but |
| W2:WIRW.3 | murder? What can it perceive surrounding it but safety, love, and | joy? What is there it would choose to be condemned, and what is there |
| W2:292.1 | God's promises make no exceptions. And He guarantees that only | joy can be the final outcome found for everything. Yet it is up to us |
| W2:WISC.4 | God the Father smiles upon His Son, His one creation and His only | joy. |

| W2:340.1 | born into this world but to achieve this day and what it holds in | joy and freedom for Your holy Son and for the world he made, which is |
| W2:340.2 | Be glad today! Be glad! There is no room for anything but | joy and thanks today. Our Father has redeemed His Son this day! Not |
| W2:WIM.3 | to Creator and creation, in the light of perfect purity and endless | joy. |
| W2:348.1 | Love. I have no cause for anything except the perfect peace and | joy I share with You. What need have I for anger or for fear? |
| W2:WAI.1 | eternal life. In me is love perfected, fear impossible, and | joy established without opposite. I am the holy home of God Himself. |
| W2:WAI.4 | all our brothers, asking them to share our peace and consummate our | joy. |
| W2:355.1 | Why should I wait, my Father, for the | joy You promised me? For You will keep Your Word You gave Your Son in |
| W2:E.5 | on and turn to Him for guidance and for peace and right direction. | Joy attends our way. For we go homeward to an open door which God has |

| M:4.16 | that fear is now impossible, and what could come to interfere with | joy? The open hands of gentleness are always filled. The gentle have |

| M:4.16 | follow in His way because God's Voice directs them in all things. | Joy is their song of thanks. And Christ looks down on them in thanks |

| Tx:3.61 | says, “Judge not that ye be not judged” it merely means that if you | judge the reality of others at all, you will be unable to avoid |

| Tx:3.62 | have judged against it. It does not matter in the end whether you | judge right or wrong. Either way, you are placing your belief in the |
| Tx:4.64 | any beliefs that hinder its accomplishment, and step away from them. | Judge how well you have done this by your own feelings, for this is |
| Tx:4.64 | Without your own allegiance, protection, and love, it cannot exist. | Judge your ego truly, and you must withdraw allegiance, protection, |
| Tx:4.69 | gave rise to it and which it serves. Sane judgment would inevitably | judge against the ego and must be obliterated by the ego in the |
| Tx:4.100 | ego with which to accept such thanks and no perception with which to | judge such offerings. But unless you take your part in the creation, |
| Tx:6.82 | mind only, He sorts out the true from the false and teaches you to | judge every thought that you allow to enter your mind in the light of |
| Tx:7.109 | Consider the kingdom you have made and | judge its worth fairly. Is it worthy to be a home for a Child of God? |
| Tx:8.74 | and one which He is perfectly equipped to fulfill. The ego as a | judge gives anything but an impartial judgment. When the ego calls on |
| Tx:8.76 | to examine all possible outcomes to which premises give rise to | judge them truly. |
| Tx:9.3 | that arises from it. Since He does not understand it, He does not | judge it, knowing that nothing it engenders means anything. |
| Tx:9.11 | look on your abilities through the eyes of the ego, or you will | judge them as it does. All their harmfulness lies in its judgment. |
| Tx:9.34 | by accepting His limitlessness as yours, but meanwhile you will | judge it as you judge your brothers' and will accept it as you accept |

| Tx:9.78 | calmly at the logical conclusion of the ego's thought system and | judge whether its offering is really what you want, for this is what |
| Tx:9.86 | to have it. To know reality must involve the willingness to | judge unreality for what it is. This is the right use of selective |
| Tx:9.86 | use of selective perception. To overlook nothingness is merely to | judge it correctly, and because of your ability to evaluate it truly, |
| Tx:9.94 | give, because it is the message you want. You may believe that you | judge your brothers by the messages they give you, but you have |
| Tx:10.3 | to the foundation of the ego's thought system bravely. Be willing to | judge it with perfect honesty. Open the dark cornerstone of terror on |
| Tx:10.65 | in which everyone has a part of equal value. God does not | judge His blameless Son. Having given Himself to him, how could it be |

| Tx:11.73 | He does, reserving no judgment at all unto yourselves. For you will | judge against yourselves, but He will judge for you. |
| Tx:11.73 | unto yourselves. For you will judge against yourselves, but He will | judge for you. |
| Tx:11.90 | and God's Son is without guilt. As you look upon yourselves and | judge what you do honestly, as you have been asked to do, you may be |
| Tx:11.93 | God's Son will always be as he was created. Deny your world and | judge him not, for his eternal guiltlessness is in the mind of his |
| Tx:12.46 | to use your past experience as the reference point from which to | judge the present. Yet this is unnatural because it is delusional. |
| Tx:12.63 | is false. And what he judges false he does not see. You who would | judge reality cannot see it, for whenever judgment enters, reality |
| Tx:13.38 | quietly to the contrast, knowing that you will finally let Him | judge the difference for you, allowing Him to demonstrate which must |

| Tx:14.61 | darkness you have taught yourselves unto the light in you can hardly | judge the truth and value of this course. Yet God did not abandon |
| Tx:15.45 | rests on the past, for past experience is the basis on which you | judge. Judgment becomes impossible without the past, for without it |
| Tx:15.45 | it you do not understand anything. You would make no attempt to | judge because it would be quite apparent to you that you do not know |
| Tx:15.53 | thus removing the frame of reference you have built by which to | judge your brothers. Once this is gone, the Holy Spirit substitutes |
| Tx:15.55 | Think you that you can | judge the Self of God? God has created it beyond judgment out of His |
| Tx:15.69 | at the relationships which the ego contrives and let the Holy Spirit | judge them truly. For it is certain that, if you will look at them, |

| Tx:18.2 | the Holy Spirit sees them joined and indivisible. He does not | judge between them, knowing they are one. Being united, they are one |
| Tx:18.7 | and totally meaningless patterns which need not be judged at all. To | judge them individually is pointless. Their tiny differences in form |
| Tx:19.12 | himself. Faith sees him only now because it looks not to the past to | judge him, but would see in him only what it would see in you. It |

| Tx:19.88 | they reflect. Confronted with such seeming uncertainty of meaning, | judge it not. Remember the holy Presence of the One given to you to |
| Tx:19.88 | the One given to you to be the Source of judgment. Give it to Him to | judge for you, and say: |
| Tx:20.6 | will exchange their gifts, offering and receiving what their minds | judge to be worthy of them. |
| Tx:20.39 | Do you recognize the fear that rises from the meaningless attempt to | judge what lies so far beyond your judgment you cannot even see it? |
| Tx:20.39 | judge what lies so far beyond your judgment you cannot even see it? | Judge not what is invisible to you or you will never see it, but wait |
| Tx:20.40 | that you will merely love him and be glad. You will not think to | judge him, for who would see the face of Christ and yet insist that |
| Tx:20.66 | For what the seeing look upon is sinless. No one who loves can | judge, and what he sees is free of condemnation. And what he sees he |

| Tx:24.5 | And difference of any kind imposes orders of reality and a need to | judge that cannot be escaped. |
| Tx:25.70 | Yet justice cannot punish those who ask for punishment but have a | Judge Who knows that they are wholly innocent in truth. In justice, |

| Tx:26.13 | And so He takes the thorns and nails away. He does not pause to | judge whether the hurt be large or little. He makes but one judgment |
| Tx:26.14 | there to see? Each time you keep a problem for yourself to solve or | judge that it is one which has no resolution, you have made it great |

| Tx:29.62 | will waken. For the dream will seem to last while he is part of it. | Judge not, for he who judges will have need of idols which will hold |
| Tx:29.62 | from resting on himself. Nor can he know the Self he has condemned. | Judge not, because you make yourself a part of evil dreams where |
| Tx:30.5 | This means that you are choosing not to be the | judge of what to do. But it must also mean you will not judge the |
| Tx:30.5 | to be the judge of what to do. But it must also mean you will not | judge the situations where you will be called upon to make response. |
| Tx:30.5 | where you will be called upon to make response. For if you | judge them, you have set the rules for how you should react to them. |
| Tx:30.76 | all forms of sickness, or it cannot heal. Its purpose cannot be to | judge which forms are real and which appearances are true. If one |
| Tx:30.83 | reflect except your plans for what the day should be? And thus you | judge disaster and success, advance, retreat, and gain and loss. |

| W1:151.4 | not because it is a right to be withheld from you. You cannot | judge. You merely can believe the ego's judgments, all of which are |
| W1:151.6 | the way to recognize yourself and let the Voice for God alone be | Judge of what is worthy of your own belief. |

| W1:154.1 | off, and to delay commitment to our function. It is not our part to | judge our worth, nor can we know what role is best for us; what we |
| W1:159.10 | give. Are you not worth the gift when God appointed it be given you? | Judge not God's Son, but follow in the way He has established. Christ |

| W2:301.1 | I am abandoned and unneeded in the world. This is my home because I | judge it not. And therefore is it only what You will. Let me today |

| Tx:16.44 | which center around it are often quite open. Here they are usually | judged to be acceptable and even natural. No one considers it bizarre |
| Tx:17.65 | thoughts. If problems are perceived, it is because the thoughts are | judged to be in conflict. But if the goal is truth, this is |

| Tx:3.63 | In fact, their meaning is lost to you precisely because you are | judging them. All uncertainty comes from a totally fallacious belief |

| Tx:8.92 | with something you do not want. It is evident, then, that you are | judging something of which you are totally unaware. You have set this |
| Tx:11.73 | right, for judgment is His function. You share His function only by | judging as He does, reserving no judgment at all unto yourselves. For |

judgment (273) | ||
| Tx:2.105 | distinction leads us directly into the real meaning of the Last | Judgment. |
| Tx:2.106 | The Last | Judgment is one of the greatest threat concepts in man's perception. |
| Tx:2.106 | in man's perception. This is only because he does not understand it. | Judgment is not an essential attribute of God. Man brought judgment |
| Tx:2.106 | it. Judgment is not an essential attribute of God. Man brought | judgment into being only because of the separation. After the |
| Tx:2.106 | the separation. After the separation, however, there was a place for | judgment as one of the many learning devices which had to be built |
| Tx:2.106 | as the separation occurred over many millions of years, the Last | Judgment will extend over a similarly long period and perhaps an even |
| Tx:2.108 | The Last | Judgment is generally thought of as a procedure undertaken by God. |
| Tx:2.108 | concept in total opposition to right-mindedness. The aim of the Last | Judgment is to restore right-mindedness to man. |
| Tx:2.109 | The Last | Judgment might be called a process of right evaluation. It simply |
| Tx:2.110 | of upside-down perception. Actually, if the meaning of the Last | Judgment is objectively examined, it is quite apparent that it is |
| Tx:2.111 | No one who lives in fear is really alive. His own last | judgment cannot be directed toward himself because he is not his own |
| Tx:2.111 | The purpose of time is solely to “give him time” to achieve this | judgment. It is his own perfect judgment of his own creations. When |
| Tx:2.111 | to “give him time” to achieve this judgment. It is his own perfect | judgment of his own creations. When everything he retains is |
| Tx:3.9 | 6. Miraculous forgiveness is only correction. It has no element of | judgment at all. “Father forgive them for they know not what they do” |
| Tx:3.61 | We have already discussed the Last | Judgment in some though insufficient detail. After the Last Judgment |
| Tx:3.61 | the Last Judgment in some though insufficient detail. After the Last | Judgment there will be no more. This is symbolic only in the sense |
| Tx:3.61 | symbolic only in the sense that everyone is much better off without | judgment. When the Bible says, “Judge not that ye be not judged” it |
| Tx:3.61 | to judge rather than to know was the cause of the loss of peace. | Judgment is the process on which perception, but not cognition, |
| Tx:3.62 | Judgment always involves rejection. It is not an ability which | |
| Tx:3.62 | your belief in the unreal. This cannot be avoided in any type of | judgment, because it implies the belief that reality is yours to |
| Tx:3.63 | that comes from meeting yourselves and your brothers totally without | judgment. When you recognize what you and your brothers are, you will |
| Tx:3.63 | from a totally fallacious belief that you are under the coercion of | judgment. You do not need judgment to organize your life, and you |
| Tx:3.63 | belief that you are under the coercion of judgment. You do not need | judgment to organize your life, and you certainly do not need it to |
| Tx:3.63 | need it to organize yourselves. In the presence of knowledge, all | judgment is automatically suspended, and this is the process which |
| Tx:3.65 | you are very capable of wearying yourselves. The strain of constant | judgment is virtually intolerable. It is a curious thing that any |
| Tx:3.66 | which is totally impossible anyway, you will insist on holding onto | judgment. You will also use the term with considerable fear, |
| Tx:3.66 | You will also use the term with considerable fear, believing that | judgment will someday be used against you. To whatever extent it is |
| Tx:3.69 | to place it. It is perfectly possible to look on reality without | judgment and merely know that it is there. |
| Tx:3.71 | position would be quite apparent. Free will must lead to freedom. | Judgment always imprisons because it separates segments of reality |
| Tx:4.36 | that wrong-mindedness is obliterated. The ego cannot survive without | judgment and is laid aside accordingly. The mind then has only one |
| Tx:4.64 | done this by your own feelings, for this is the one right use of | judgment. Judgment, like any other defense, can be used to attack or |
| Tx:4.64 | by your own feelings, for this is the one right use of judgment. | Judgment, like any other defense, can be used to attack or protect, |
| Tx:4.64 | or protect, to hurt or to heal. The ego should be brought to your | judgment and found wanting there. Without your own allegiance, |
| Tx:4.66 | preparations were made. I am in charge of the second coming, and my | judgment, which is used only for protection, cannot be wrong because |
| Tx:4.69 | work together for good. There are no exceptions except in the ego's | judgment. Control is a central factor in what the ego permits into |
| Tx:4.69 | motivation unconscious and raising control rather than sensible | judgment to predominance. The ego has every reason to do this |
| Tx:4.69 | the thought system which gave rise to it and which it serves. Sane | judgment would inevitably judge against the ego and must be |
| Tx:4.81 | it. The whole value of right perception lies in the inevitable | judgment which it entails that it is unnecessary. This removes the |
| Tx:4.95 | different kinds of threat which are quite specific in their own | judgment. For example, although all forms of perceived demands may be |
| Tx:4.97 | that its quality is universal in application and not subject to any | judgment, any exception, or any alteration. God created you by this |
| Tx:5.58 | to hold it and the hands are strong to give it. We cannot lose. My | judgment is as strong as the wisdom of God, in Whose heart and hands |
| Tx:5.66 | it every minute and every second, and each moment of decision is a | judgment which is anything but ineffectual. Its effects will follow |
| Tx:5.74 | The ego speaks in | judgment and the Holy Spirit reverses its decisions, much as the |
| Tx:5.74 | The Bible is a fearful thing to the ego because of its prejudiced | judgment. Perceiving it as fearful, it interprets it fearfully. |
| Tx:5.74 | you do not appeal to the Higher Court, because you believe its | judgment would be against you. |
| Tx:5.76 | believe to be worth cultivating you will cultivate in yourself. Your | judgment of what is worthy makes it worthy for you. “Vengeance is |
| Tx:5.83 | afraid and, as you know all too well, fear is incompatible with good | judgment. Fear distorts thinking and therefore disorders thought. |
| Tx:6.15 | as I learned, is that no perception which is out of accord with the | judgment of the Holy Spirit can be justified. I undertook to show |
| Tx:6.74 | acceptable to it, would obviously be that it is insane. The ego's | judgment, then, is predetermined by what it is, though no more so |
| Tx:6.84 | but only in order to unify the mind so it can perceive without | judgment. This enables the mind to teach without judgment and |
| Tx:6.84 | perceive without judgment. This enables the mind to teach without | judgment and therefore to learn to be without judgment. The undoing |
| Tx:6.84 | mind to teach without judgment and therefore to learn to be without | judgment. The undoing is necessary only in your mind so that you |
| Tx:7.90 | You who made the ego by believing the unbelievable cannot make this | judgment alone. By accepting the Atonement for yourself, you are |
| Tx:8.74 | disagree with its case, nor does the Holy Spirit. We have said that | judgment is the function of the Holy Spirit and one which He is |
| Tx:8.74 | to fulfill. The ego as a judge gives anything but an impartial | judgment. When the ego calls on a witness, it has already made the |
| Tx:8.115 | for what you do not value. There is a price you will pay for | judgment because judgment is the setting of a price. And as you set |
| Tx:8.115 | you do not value. There is a price you will pay for judgment because | judgment is the setting of a price. And as you set it, you will pay |
| Tx:8.116 | that [to price is to value, so] your return is in proportion to your | judgment of worth. If paying is associated with giving, it cannot be |
| Tx:9.11 | or you will judge them as it does. All their harmfulness lies in its | judgment. All their helpfulness lies in the judgment of the Holy |
| Tx:9.11 | harmfulness lies in its judgment. All their helpfulness lies in the | judgment of the Holy Spirit. |
| Tx:9.17 | on borrowed time, and its days are numbered. Do not fear the Last | Judgment, but welcome it and do not wait, for the ego's time is |
| Tx:9.41 | it has evaluated you as unloving, and you are going against its | judgment. |
| Tx:9.50 | Its own profound sense of vulnerability renders it incapable of | judgment except in terms of attack. When it experiences threat, its |
| Tx:10.74 | into knowledge will leave you only an instant to realize that this | judgment is true. |
| Tx:11.3 | motivation that makes any sense. And because it is the Holy Spirit's | judgment, it requires no effort at all on your part. Every loving |
| Tx:11.73 | because you saw it first within. Everything you behold without is a | judgment of what you beheld within. If it is your judgment, it will |
| Tx:11.73 | without is a judgment of what you beheld within. If it is your | judgment, it will be wrong, for judgment is not your function. If it |
| Tx:11.73 | you beheld within. If it is your judgment, it will be wrong, for | judgment is not your function. If it is the judgment of the Holy |
| Tx:11.73 | it will be wrong, for judgment is not your function. If it is the | judgment of the Holy Spirit, it will be right, for judgment is His |
| Tx:11.73 | If it is the judgment of the Holy Spirit, it will be right, for | judgment is His function. You share His function only by judging as |
| Tx:11.73 | You share His function only by judging as He does, reserving no | judgment at all unto yourselves. For you will judge against |
| Tx:11.85 | could not attack, for condemnation is the root of attack. It is the | judgment of one mind by another as unworthy of love and deserving of |
| Tx:12.49 | the present, you will not see the freedom that the present holds. | Judgment and condemnation are behind you, and unless you bring them |
| Tx:12.63 | not see. You who would judge reality cannot see it, for whenever | judgment enters, reality has slipped away. The out of mind is out of |
| Tx:13.38 | demonstrate which must be true. He has perfect faith in your final | judgment because He knows that He will make it for you. To doubt this |
| Tx:14.30 | They cannot coexist when both of you together look on them. His | judgment must prevail, and He will give it to you as you join your |
| Tx:14.32 | your mind, but let all that would hide your glory be brought to the | judgment of the Holy Spirit and there undone. Whom He would save for |
| Tx:14.50 | the ego, it also limits you. To order is to judge and to arrange by | judgment. [Therefore, it is not your function, but the Holy |
| Tx:14.51 | or more important. You may wonder how you who are still bound to | judgment can be asked to do that which requires no judgment of your |
| Tx:14.51 | still bound to judgment can be asked to do that which requires no | judgment of your own. The answer is very simple. The power of God, |
| Tx:14.52 | The only | judgment involved at all is the Holy Spirit's one division into two |
| Tx:15.45 | for teaching you love's meaning. For its purpose is to suspend | judgment entirely. Judgment always rests on the past, for past |
| Tx:15.45 | you love's meaning. For its purpose is to suspend judgment entirely. | Judgment always rests on the past, for past experience is the basis |
| Tx:15.45 | on the past, for past experience is the basis on which you judge. | Judgment becomes impossible without the past, for without it you do |
| Tx:15.55 | you that you can judge the Self of God? God has created it beyond | judgment out of His need to extend His Love. With love in you, you |
| Tx:17.59 | what it must have meant. And you will be wrong. Not only is your | judgment in the past, but you have no idea what should happen. No |
| Tx:17.59 | goal was set with which to bring the means in line. And now the only | judgment left to make is whether or not the ego likes it—is it |
| Tx:18.26 | You go toward love, still hating it and terribly afraid of its | judgment upon you. And you do not realize that you are not afraid of |
| Tx:19.22 | As truth it is inviolate, and everything is brought to it for | judgment. As a mistake, it must be brought to truth. It is impossible |
| Tx:19.88 | the holy Presence of the One given to you to be the Source of | judgment. Give it to Him to judge for you, and say: |
| Tx:20.7 | upon your brother and on yourself. Here is your gift to both; your | judgment on the Son of God for what he is. Forget not that it is your |
| Tx:20.20 | how it would look through happy eyes? The world you see is but a | judgment on yourself. It is not there at all. Yet judgment lays a |
| Tx:20.20 | you see is but a judgment on yourself. It is not there at all. Yet | judgment lays a sentence on it, justifies it, and makes it real. Such |
| Tx:20.20 | it, justifies it, and makes it real. Such is the world you see—a | judgment on yourself and made by you. This sickly picture of yourself |
| Tx:20.21 | you?” And He Who watches over all perception answered. Take not the | judgment of the world as answer to the question, “What am I?” |
| Tx:20.24 | Does one ask | judgment of what is totally bereft of judgment? And if you have, |
| Tx:20.24 | Does one ask judgment of what is totally bereft of | judgment? And if you have, would you believe the answer and adjust to |
| Tx:20.39 | from the meaningless attempt to judge what lies so far beyond your | judgment you cannot even see it? Judge not what is invisible to you |
| Tx:20.40 | judge him, for who would see the face of Christ and yet insist that | judgment still has meaning? For this insistence is of those who do |
| Tx:20.40 | meaning? For this insistence is of those who do not see. Vision or | judgment is your choice, but never both of these. |
| Tx:20.62 | always secondary to desire. And if you see the body, you have chosen | judgment and not vision. For vision, like relationships, has no |
| Tx:20.63 | Who sees a brother's body has laid a | judgment on him and sees him not. He does not really see him as |
| Tx:20.64 | the intention. The means seem real because the goal is valued. And | judgment has no value unless the goal is sin. |
| Tx:20.65 | The body cannot be looked upon except through | judgment. To see the body is the sign that you lack vision and have |
| Tx:20.65 | a holy relationship achieve its purpose through the means of sin? | Judgment you taught yourself; vision is learned from Him Who would |
| Tx:20.67 | return. It has been saved for you. Vision would not be necessary had | judgment not been made. Desire now its whole undoing, and it is done |
| Tx:20.71 | the pitifully little the perfect choice to call upon for strength? | Judgment will seem to make your savior weak. Yet it is you who need |
| Tx:20.73 | Judgment is but a toy, a whim, the senseless means to play the idle | |
| Tx:21.2 | Damnation is your | judgment on yourself, and this you will project upon the world. See |
| Tx:21.4 | where safety lies and which way leads to darkness, which to light. | Judgment will always give you false directions, but vision shows you |
| Tx:21.5 | because you still remain uncertain that vision gives you more than | judgment does, and you have learned that both you cannot have. |
| Tx:21.13 | it is obscure, but rather that this little cost seemed in your | judgment to be too much to pay for peace. |
| Tx:21.23 | but of recognition. For recognition comes of vision and suspended | judgment. Then only is it possible to look within and see what must |
| Tx:21.23 | be there plainly in sight and wholly independent of inference and | judgment. Undoing is not your task, but it is up to you to welcome it |
| Tx:23.35 | himself? How can it matter what the form this madness takes? It is a | judgment that defeats itself, condemning what it says it wants to |
| Tx:24.6 | in the universe unlike itself. But what is different calls for | judgment, and this must come from someone “better,” someone incapable |
| Tx:24.10 | does not change with every seeming blow, each slight, or fancied | judgment on itself? |
| Tx:24.53 | release you both, for holiness is quite impartial, with one | judgment made for all it looks upon. And that is made, not of itself, |
| Tx:24.56 | stands beside you. He is the mirror of yourself wherein you see the | judgment you have laid on both of you. The Christ in you beholds his |
| Tx:24.61 | body than his holiness, be sure you understand what made this | judgment. Here is the voice of specialness heard clearly, judging |
| Tx:24.61 | that you can attain and what you cannot do. Forget not that this | judgment must apply to what you do with it as your ally. For what you |
| Tx:24.61 | ally. For what you do through Christ it does not know. To Him this | judgment makes no sense at all, for only what His Father wills is |
| Tx:25.42 | and you will walk the way you pointed out to him because it is your | judgment on yourself. |
| Tx:25.71 | love perceived as weak and vengeance strong. For love has lost when | judgment left its side and is too weak to save from punishment. But |
| Tx:26.13 | pause to judge whether the hurt be large or little. He makes but one | judgment—that to hurt God's Son must be unfair and therefore is not |
| Tx:26.21 | will ever make, the last evaluation that will be possible, the final | judgment upon this world. It is the judgment of the truth upon |
| Tx:26.21 | that will be possible, the final judgment upon this world. It is the | judgment of the truth upon illusion, of knowledge on perception—it |
| Tx:26.35 | Yet in each unforgiving act or thought, in every | judgment, and in all belief in sin, is that one instant still called |
| Tx:27.85 | while. You judge effects, but He has judged their cause. And by His | judgment are effects removed. Perhaps you come in tears, but hear Him |
| Tx:28.10 | You who have sought to lay a | judgment on your own Creator cannot understand it is not He Who laid |
| Tx:28.10 | on your own Creator cannot understand it is not He Who laid a | judgment on His Son. You would deny Him His effects, yet have they |
| Tx:29.61 | be not the truth that you believe that it is not a dream. A dream of | judgment came into the mind that God created perfect as Himself. And |
| Tx:29.62 | How can God's Son awaken from the dream? It is a dream of | judgment. So must he judge not, and he will waken. For the dream will |
| Tx:29.62 | not, for he who judges will have need of idols which will hold the | judgment off from resting on himself. Nor can he know the Self he has |
| Tx:29.62 | where idols are your “true” identity and your salvation from the | judgment laid in terror and in guilt upon yourself. |
| Tx:29.63 | worship of despair and terror and the dream from which they come. | Judgment is an injustice to God's Son, and it is justice that who |
| Tx:29.63 | he made. God knows of justice, not of penalty. But in the dream of | judgment, you attack and are condemned and wish to be the slave of |
| Tx:29.63 | and wish to be the slave of idols which are interposed between your | judgment and the penalty it brings. |
| Tx:29.66 | Put them all away, for you have need of them no more. The dream of | judgment is a children's game in which the child becomes the father, |
| Tx:29.67 | childish things have all been put away. And what was once a dream of | judgment now has changed into a dream where all is joy because that |
| Tx:29.67 | forms which enter in the dream are now perceived as brothers, not in | judgment but in love. |
| Tx:29.68 | he knows he never heard it not. And where is time, when dreams of | judgment have been put away? |
| Tx:29.69 | sense of doom. Your self-betrayal must result in fear, for fear is | judgment, leading surely to the frantic search for idols and for |

| M:10.1 | Judgment, like other devices by which the world of illusions is | |
| M:10.1 | world uses the term, an individual is capable of “good” and “bad” | judgment, and his education aims at strengthening the former and |

| M:10.4 | how many times you thought you knew all the “facts” you needed for | judgment, and how wrong you were! Is there anyone who has not had |

| M:11.2 | your judgment would condemn it. God says there is no death; your | judgment sees but death as the inevitable end of life. God's Word |
| M:11.2 | end of life. God's Word assures you that He loves the world; your | judgment says it is unlovable. Who is right? For one of you is wrong. |

| M:11.3 | possible—God has sent His Judgment to answer yours. Gently His | Judgment substitutes for yours. And through this substitution is the |
| M:11.3 | made understandable. How is peace possible in this world? In your | judgment it is not possible and can never be possible. But in the |
| M:11.3 | judgment it is not possible and can never be possible. But in the | Judgment of God, what is reflected here is only peace. |
| M:11.4 | is inevitable to those who offer peace. How easily, then, is your | judgment of the world escaped! It is not the world that makes peace |
| M:11.4 | It is the world you see that is impossible. Yet has God's | Judgment on this distorted world redeemed it and made it fit to |
| M:12.1 | forever and ever. His perception of Himself is based upon God's | Judgment, not His own. Thus does He share God's Will and bring His |
| M:14.2 | world will end when all things in it have been rightly judged by His | judgment. The world will end with the benediction of holiness upon |
| M:15.1 | Indeed yes! No one can escape God's Final | Judgment. Who could flee forever from the truth? But the Final |
| M:15.1 | Final Judgment. Who could flee forever from the truth? But the Final | Judgment will not come until it is no longer associated with fear. |
| M:15.1 | around and around the world, setting it free as God's Final | Judgment on him is received. This is the judgment in which salvation |
| M:15.1 | it free as God's Final Judgment on him is received. This is the | judgment in which salvation lies. This is the judgment that will set |
| M:15.1 | received. This is the judgment in which salvation lies. This is the | judgment that will set him free. This is the judgment in which all |
| M:15.1 | lies. This is the judgment that will set him free. This is the | judgment in which all things are freed with him. Time pauses as |
| M:15.1 | near, and silence lies across the world that everyone may hear this | judgment of the Son of God: |
| M:15.3 | Is this your | judgment on yourself, teacher of God? Do you believe that this is |
| M:15.3 | you are here. It is your function to prepare yourself to hear this | judgment and to recognize that it is true. One instant of complete |
| M:15.3 | end. Judge not, for you but judge yourself and thus delay this Final | Judgment. What is your judgment on the world, teacher of God? Have |
| M:15.3 | but judge yourself and thus delay this Final Judgment. What is your | judgment on the world, teacher of God? Have you yet learned to stand |
| M:15.3 | of God? Have you yet learned to stand aside and hear the Voice of | Judgment in yourself? Or do you still attempt to take His role from |
| M:15.3 | Him? Learn to be quiet, for His Voice is heard in stillness. And His | Judgment comes to all who stand aside in quiet listening and wait for |
| M:15.4 | and meaningless to occupy your holy minds an instant longer. God's | judgment waits for you to set you free. What can the world hold out |
| M:15.4 | are sure. Only remember that. His promises have guaranteed that His | judgment, and His alone, will be accepted in the end. It is your |
| M:17.2 | give only what he has chosen for himself. And in this gift is his | judgment upon the holy Son of God. |
| M:19.1 | Justice is the Holy Spirit's verdict upon the world. Except in His | judgment, justice is impossible, for no one in the world is capable |

| Tx:20.77 | is there who could refuse what must come after? Think but an instant | just on this—you can behold the holiness God gave His Son. And |
| Tx:21.8 | completely unremembered. Not the whole song has stayed with you, but | just a little wisp of melody, attached not to a person or a place or |
| Tx:21.8 | to a person or a place or anything particular. But you remember from | just this little part how lovely was the song, how wonderful the |
| Tx:21.65 | it is given you to change his whole mind, which is one with you, in | just an instant. And any instant serves to bring complete correction |
| Tx:22.3 | would take. He denies not his own reality, because it is the truth. | Just under Heaven does he stand, but close enough not to return to |
| Tx:22.14 | made it through awareness older than perception and yet reborn in | just an instant. For what is time to what was always so? Think what |
| Tx:23.7 | the ego is at war with God. Certain it is it has no enemy. Yet | just as certain is its fixed belief it has an enemy that it must |
| Tx:23.23 | different and enemies. And their relationship is one of opposition, | just as the separate aspects of the Son meet only to conflict but not |
| Tx:23.27 | And what your enemies would keep from you must be worth having, | just because they keep it hidden from your sight. |
| Tx:23.41 | take? If it is true attack in any form will hurt you and will do so | just as much as in another form which you do recognize, then it must |
| Tx:23.44 | This course is easy | just because it makes no compromise. Yet it seems difficult to those |
| Tx:24.18 | truth in him and in yourself. But be you certain that the truth is | just the same in both. It gives no different messages and has one |
| Tx:24.20 | You have come far along the way of truth—too far to falter now. | Just one step more and every vestige of the fear of God will melt |
| Tx:24.28 | It is not you that is so vulnerable and open to attack that | just a word, a little whisper that you do not like, a circumstance |
| Tx:24.38 | his sins as real. If he is sinful, then is your reality not real but | just a dream of specialness which lasts an instant, crumbling into |
| Tx:24.47 | He give a brother unto you except he be as perfect as yourself and | just as like to Him in holiness as you must be? |
| Tx:25.28 | bestow forgiveness. And he will reinterpret all temptation as | just another chance to bring him joy. How can a misperception be a |
| Tx:25.51 | It cannot be the “sinner's” wish for death is | just as strong as is God's Will for life. Nor can the basis of a |
| Tx:25.66 | learn the answer. Justice looks on all in the same way. It is not | just that one should lack for what another has. For that is vengeance |
| Tx:25.67 | Vengeance is alien to God's Mind because He knows of justice. To be | just is to be fair and not be vengeful. Fairness and vengeance are |
| Tx:25.67 | a mind that can conceive of specialness at all. Yet how could He be | just if He condemns a sinner for the crimes he did not do but thinks |
| Tx:25.74 | looks on innocence at last, provided it is seen and recognized. For | just one witness is enough if he sees truly. Simple justice asks no |
| Tx:25.76 | Without impartiality there is no justice. How can specialness be | just? Judge not because you cannot, not because you are a miserable |
| Tx:25.77 | replace God's justice with a version of its own. For only love is | just and can perceive what justice must accord the Son of God. Let |
| Tx:25.85 | receive it not. Only forgiveness offers miracles. And pardon must be | just to everyone. |
| Tx:26.1 | is itself a sacrifice—a giving up of power in the name of saving | just a little for yourself. To see a brother in another body separate |
| Tx:26.3 | little to belong to you are limits placed on everything outside, | just as they are on everything you think is yours. For giving and |
| Tx:26.10 | Every problem is the same to Him, because each one is solved in | just the same respect and through the same approach. The aspects |
| Tx:26.15 | If God is | just, then can there be no problems that justice cannot solve. But |
| Tx:26.16 | For all of them are little in His sight and worth no more than | just a tiny sigh before they disappear, to be forever undone and |
| Tx:26.19 | the truth where they are judged to be untrue. This borderland is | just beyond the gate of Heaven. Here is every thought made pure and |
| Tx:26.22 | Salvation stops | just short of Heaven, for only perception needs salvation. Heaven was |
| Tx:26.44 | hurt you and will do so. Not because it has the power to hurt, but | just because you have denied it is but an illusion and made it real. |
| Tx:26.61 | is his, unlimited by loss of any kind. A tiny sacrifice is | just the same in its effects as is the whole idea of sacrifice. If |
| Tx:26.76 | not content with future happiness. It has no meaning and is not your | just reward. For you have cause for freedom now. What profits freedom |
| Tx:26.85 | you perceive it as unfair, you think that a response of anger now is | just. And thus you see what is the same as different. Confusion is |
| Tx:26.87 | is at the root of everything perceived to be unfair and not your | just deserts. Yet it is you who ask this of yourself in deep |
| Tx:27.16 | sins have no effect to warrant guilt? Sins are beyond forgiveness | just because they would entail effects which cannot be undone and |
| Tx:27.19 | How | just are miracles! For they bestow an equal gift of full deliverance |
| Tx:27.37 | to attempt to solve a problem where the answer cannot be. Yet | just as surely it must be resolved if it is brought to where the |
| Tx:27.40 | is all questioning within the world a form of propaganda for itself. | Just as the body's witnesses are but the senses from within itself, |
| Tx:27.46 | no sadness where a miracle has come to heal. And nothing more than | just one instant of your love without attack is necessary that all |
| Tx:28.30 | The miracle does nothing | just because the minds are joined and cannot separate. Yet in the |
| Tx:28.32 | between the ripples that a ship has made in passing by. And covered | just as fast, as water rushes in to close the gap and as the waves in |
| Tx:28.37 | depending on whose evil dream you share. You can be sure of | just one thing—that you are evil, for you share in dreams of fear. |
| Tx:28.44 | offers his identity, which the whole picture represents, instead of | just a little broken bit which he insisted was himself. And when he |
| Tx:28.45 | For the whole is in each one. And every aspect of the Son of God is | just the same as every other part. |
| Tx:29.1 | love is quite impossible. For it would mean His love could harbor | just a hint of hate; His gentleness turn sometimes to attack; and His |
| Tx:29.21 | and of death is yet one theme of truth—no more, perhaps, than | just a tiny spark, a space of light created in the dark, where God |
| Tx:29.28 | dream is sad. But whether it succeeds or fails is not its core but | just the flimsy covering. |
| Tx:29.35 | him not. But learn instead how blessed are you who can release him | just by offering him yours. |
| Tx:30.2 | and tell yourself there is a way in which this very day can happen | just like that. Then try again to have the day you want. |
| Tx:30.20 | you feel. This tiny opening will be enough to let you go ahead with | just a few more steps you need to let yourself be helped. |
| Tx:30.44 | be exactly as it was before the time when you forgot and will be | just the same when you remember. And it is the same within the |
| Tx:30.58 | of the world is one which all must share if hope be more than | just a dream. |
| Tx:30.73 | world employs to keep the sense of sin alive. And recognizing God is | just, it seems impossible His pardon could be real. Thus is the fear |
| Tx:31.1 | true. You have been told exactly how to tell one from the other and | just what to do if you become confused. Why then do you persist in |
| Tx:31.51 | and some distress, there is no shattering of what was learned, but | just a re-translation of what seems to be the evidence on its behalf. |
| Tx:31.53 | Spirit does not seek to throw you into panic. So He merely asks if | just a little question might be raised. |
| Tx:31.70 | In terms of concepts, it is thus you see him more than | just a body, for the good is never what the body seems to be. The |
| Tx:31.70 | in your sight and will at length be seen as little more than | just a shadow circling round the good. And this will be your concept |
| Tx:31.71 | You live in that world | just as much as this. For both are concepts of yourself which can be |
| Tx:31.72 | gift of kind forgiveness which you offer one whose need for it is | just the same as yours. And let the cruel concept of yourself be |
| Tx:31.76 | and the love of guilt and death, they all are different names for | just one error—that there is a space between you and your brother, |
| W1:28.4 | exclusive commitment. It is a commitment which applies to the table | just as much as to anything else, neither more nor less. |
| W1:28.5 | You could, in fact, gain vision from | just that table if you could withdraw all your own ideas from it and |
| W1:39.10 | also find it helpful to include a few short intervals in which you | just relax and do not seem to be thinking of anything. Sustained |
| W1:44.4 | is the most natural and easy one in the world for the trained mind, | just as it seems to be the most unnatural and difficult for the |
| W1:45.1 | your real thoughts are. They are nothing that you think you think, | just as nothing that you think you see is related to vision in any |
| W1:64.6 | that any decision on earth can have a content different from | just this one simple choice. That is the only choice the Holy Spirit |
| W1:66.1 | because you do not really see the connection. Yet there is more than | just a connection between them; they are the same. Their forms are |
| W1:68.2 | Perhaps you do not yet fully realize | just what holding grievances does to your awareness. It seems to |
| W1:70.4 | of healing where the need for healing lies. You have tried to do | just the opposite, making every attempt, however distorted and |
| W1:71.1 | This sounds preposterous, of course. Yet after we have considered | just what the ego's plan is, perhaps you will realize that, however |
| W1:79.5 | are inevitable as you regard them. Some spring up unexpectedly, | just as you think you have resolved the previous ones. Others remain |
| W1:100.1 | Just as God's Son completes his Father, so your part in it completes | |
| W1:100.4 | You are indeed essential to God's plan. | Just as your light increases every light that shines in Heaven, so |
| W1:101.1 | real and that God's Son can sin. If sin is real, then punishment is | just and cannot be escaped. Salvation thus cannot be purchased but |
| W1:101.3 | salvation is appeased. Its wrath is boundless, merciless, but wholly | just. |
| W1:101.6 | because there is no sin, and suffering is causeless. Joy is | just, and pain is but the sign you have misunderstood yourself. |
| W1:107.3 | another hundred more. And now you have a hint, not more than | just the faintest intimation of the state your mind will rest in when |
| W1:110.3 | occurred if you remain as God created you. You need no thought but | just this one to let redemption come to light the world and free it |
| W1:R3.1 | format for these practice periods, which you are urged to follow | just as closely as you can. We understand, of course, that it may be |
| W1:R3.8 | them so you undertake one in the morning and the other in the hour | just before you go to sleep. |
| W1:R3.10 | and the other one a half an hour later. You need not give more than | just a moment to each one. |
| W1:126.4 | at times, at other times withheld. Unmerited, withholding it is | just, nor is it fair that you should suffer when it is withheld. The |
| W1:128.7 | at it before. Your whole perspective on the world will shift by | just a little every time you let your mind escape its chains. The |
| W1:130.6 | as its opposite. What we would learn today is more than | just the lesson that you cannot see two worlds. It also teaches that |
| W1:133.6 | is no compromise in what your choice must bring. It cannot give you | just a little, for there is no in-between. Each choice you make |
| W1:133.13 | or not worth the slightest effort to obtain. Choosing is easy | just because of this. Complexity is nothing but a screen of smoke |
| W1:136.16 | will come, for it has never been apart from us. It merely waits for | just this invitation which we give today. We introduce it with a |
| W1:137.5 | the dream of sickness in the name of truth but not in truth itself. | Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins that never were accomplished, |
| W1:137.5 | accomplished, healing but removes illusions that have not occurred. | Just as the real world will arise to take the place of what has never |
| W1:137.7 | Just as forgiveness shines away all sin and the real world will | |
| W1:139.8 | in. Let us not forget the goal that we accepted. It is more than | just our happiness alone we came to gain. What we accept as what we |
| W1:151.4 | prove how weak you are, how helpless and afraid, how apprehensive of | just punishment, how black with sin, how wretched in your guilt. |
| W1:156.7 | Yet you have wasted many, many years on | just this foolish thought. The past is gone with all its fantasies. |
| W1:168.3 | sweeps away the cobwebs of our sleep. His gift of grace is more than | just an answer. It restores all memories the sleeping mind forgot; |
| W1:170.7 | who are unreasonable and insane, while they are always merciful and | just. |
| W1:181.3 | We instruct our minds that it is this we seek and only this, for | just a little while. We do not care about our future goals, and what |
| W1:182.1 | so definite that you could say with certainty you are an exile here. | Just a persistent feeling, sometimes not more than a tiny throb, at |
| W1:182.5 | unto you to let Him rest a while. He does not ask for more than | just a few instants of respite—just an interval in which He can |
| W1:182.5 | He does not ask for more than just a few instants of respite— | just an interval in which He can return to breathe again the holy air |
| W1:182.5 | house. You are His home as well. He will return. But give Him | just a little time to be Himself within the peace that is His home, |
| W1:185.1 | to mean these words is everything. If you could but mean them for | just an instant, there would be no further sorrow possible for you in |
| W1:185.9 | dreams will come as you requested them. Yet will God's peace come | just as certainly and to remain with you forever. It will not be gone |
| W1:193.14 | attempt today to overcome a thousand seeming obstacles to peace in | just one day. Let mercy come to you more quickly. Do not try to hold |
| W1:194.1 | So great the distance is that it encompasses, it sets you down | just short of Heaven, with the goal in sight and obstacles behind. |
| W1:196.4 | And what would seem to need a thousand years can easily be done in | just one instant by the grace of God. |
| W2:272.2 | Sons of God, could be content with dreams when Heaven can be chosen | just as easily as hell and love will happily replace all fear. |
| W2:WIHS.2 | The goal the Holy Spirit's teaching sets is | just this end of dreams. For sights and sounds must be translated |
| W2:345.1 | recognized and seen to work. The miracles I give are given back in | just the form I need to help me with the problems I perceive. Father, |
| W2:358.1 | then is mine as well, and all I want is what You offer me, in | just the form You chose that it be mine. Let me remember all I do not |
| W2:360.1 | peace that I would give, receiving it of You. I am Your Son, forever | just as You created me, for the Great Rays remain forever still and |
| M:4.16 | And Christ looks down on them in thanks as well. His need of them is | just as great as theirs of Him. How joyous it is to share the purpose |
| M:4.21 | —not some but all. Generally, his faithfulness begins by resting on | just some problems, remaining carefully limited for a time. To give |
| M:7.4 | of lack of trust. As such, it is an attack. Usually it seems to be | just the opposite. It does appear unreasonable at first to be told |
| M:8.6 | appears to be the outside world. And of these two, but one is real. | Just as reality is wholly real, apart from size and shape and time |
| M:12.5 | it holy. God's Voice will tell him when he has fulfilled his role, | just as It tells him what his function is. He does not suffer either |
| M:15.4 | who are sometimes sad and sometimes angry, who sometimes feel your | just due is not given you and your best efforts meet with lack of |

| M:20.2 | peace of God be recognized? God's peace is recognized at first by | just one thing—in every way it is totally unlike all previous |
| M:20.2 | But strangely, it is not a contrast of true differences. The past | just slips away and in its place is everlasting quiet. Only that. The |

| Tx:25.68 | confusion and cannot avoid the vengeance that their own belief in | justice must entail. And so they fear the Holy Spirit and perceive |
| Tx:25.68 | sin's stability. And they perceive the “threat” of what God knows as | justice to be more destructive to themselves and to their world than |

| Tx:25.71 | can Love ask of you who think that all of this is true? Could He, in | justice and in love believe in your confusion you have much to give? |
| Tx:25.72 | In God's own | justice does He recognize all you deserve but understands as well |
| Tx:25.72 | one you accept. And God rejoices as His Son receives what loving | justice knows to be his due. For love and justice are not different. |

| Tx:25.74 | cause. What cause can be to warrant an attack upon the innocent? In | justice then does love correct mistakes, but not in vengeance. For |
| Tx:25.75 | You can be perfect witness to the power of love and | justice if you understand it is impossible the Son of God could merit |
| Tx:25.75 | not his sin. How little need you give the Holy Spirit that simple | justice may be given you! |
| Tx:25.76 | Without impartiality there is no | justice. How can specialness be just? Judge not because you cannot, |

| Tx:26.25 | And what is charity within the world gives way to simple | justice past the gate that opens into Heaven. No one forgives unless |

| Tx:22.46 | truth, flies in the face of reason, and makes no sense. Can this be | justified? What can this be except an invitation to insanity to save |
| Tx:22.62 | in any form because it has no meaning. The only way it could be | justified is if each one of you were separate from the other, and all |

| Tx:23.28 | keeping hidden the valuable inheritance which should be yours; your | justified position and attack for what has been withheld; and the |
| Tx:23.30 | want that needs his death? Can you be sure your murderous attack is | justified unless you know what it is for? And here a final principle |
| Tx:23.30 | is the reason why you must attack. Here is what makes your vengeance | justified. Behold, unveiled, the ego's secret gift, torn from your |
| Tx:23.45 | Those who believe that peace can be defended and that attack is | justified on its behalf cannot perceive it lies within them. How |
| Tx:24.59 | light. Always attacked and always furious, with anger always fully | justified, you have pursued this goal with vigilance you never |

| Tx:25.23 | is meaningless, to that extent will you perceive attack cannot be | justified. This is in strict accord with vision's fundamental law: |
| Tx:25.25 | Not one but it upholds in its perception; not one but can be fully | justified. |

| Tx:30.70 | Anger is never | justified. Attack has no foundation. It is here escape from fear |
| Tx:30.70 | You are not asked to offer pardon where attack is due and would be | justified. For this would mean that you forgive a sin by overlooking |
| Tx:30.70 | For it would assume that, by responding in a way which is not | justified, your pardon will become the answer to attack that has been |
| Tx:30.71 | Pardon is always | justified. It has a sure foundation. You do not forgive the |

| Tx:30.72 | when you perceive the basis of forgiveness is quite real and fully | justified. While you regard it as a gift unwarranted, it must uphold |
| Tx:30.84 | for stability of meaning anywhere. Fear is a judgment never | justified. Its presence has no meaning but to show you wrote a |

| M:17.8 | If anger comes from an interpretation and not a fact, it is never | justified. Once this is even dimly grasped, the way is open. Now it |

| Tx:20.5 | a crown of thorns, not recognizing it for what it is and trying to | justify your own interpretation of its value by his acceptance. Yet |
| Tx:21.24 | The goal of sin induces the perception of a fearful world to | justify its purpose. What you desire you will see. And if its reality |
| Tx:21.27 | depends entirely upon the madness of its maker, and cannot serve to | justify the madness. Your brother thinks he made the world with you. |

| Tx:24.5 | and with the grandeur which He gave His Son. What else could | justify attack? For who could hate someone whose Self is his and whom |
| Tx:24.38 | if it were possible, would be its friend. Your brother's sins would | justify itself and give it meaning that the truth denies. All that is |

| Tx:26.62 | God gave to all illusions that were made another purpose that would | justify a miracle, whatever form they took. In every miracle all |

| Tx:5.51 | said that you will one day teach as much as you learn and that will | keep you in balance. The time is now because you have let it be now. |
| Tx:5.55 | You are more than your brother's keeper. In fact, you do not want to | keep him. You must learn to see him as he is and know that he belongs |
| Tx:5.83 | in this course under many different terms. For example, “God will | keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed (or set) on Him,” a |

| Tx:6.27 | your belief in your own split mind, and its only purpose is to | keep the separation going. It is solely a device of the ego to make |
| Tx:6.43 | This is how you will learn the truth that will set you free and | keep you so, as others learn it of you. The only way to have peace is |
| Tx:6.53 | in charge of the Kingdom with both a Guide to find it and a means to | keep it. You have a model to follow who will strengthen your command |
| Tx:6.66 | give to all. He never takes anything back, because He wants you to | keep it. Therefore, His teaching begins with the lesson: |
| Tx:6.83 | rejecting everything that does not foster joy, and so He alone can | keep you wholly joyous. |
| Tx:6.94 | without it. By making another Kingdom which you valued, you did not | keep only the Kingdom of God in your minds and thus placed part of |
| Tx:7.61 | If you will | keep in mind what the Holy Spirit offers you, you cannot be vigilant |

| Tx:7.85 | of something you do not want by giving it away. Giving it is how you | keep it. The belief that by giving it out you have excluded it from |
| Tx:7.88 | for your own errors. But having accepted the errors as yours, do not | keep them. Give them over quickly to the Holy Spirit to be undone |
| Tx:7.89 | it was always a belief that is totally incredible. No one can | keep a belief he has judged to be unbelievable. The more you learn |
| Tx:7.109 | of God? Does it protect his peace and shine love upon him? Does it | keep his heart untouched by fear and allow him to give always without |
| Tx:9.7 | real, and you have attacked yourself. If you would find your way and | keep it, see only truth beside you, for you walk together. The Holy |

| Tx:9.44 | to question your littleness, therefore, is to deny all knowledge and | keep the ego's whole thought system intact. You cannot retain part of |
| Tx:9.78 | your brothers and thus lose sight of yours. And you are willing to | keep it hidden and to protect this idol, which you think will save |
| Tx:9.88 | God's laws will | keep your minds at peace, because peace is His Will, and His laws are |
| Tx:9.95 | But consider what this means to you. Unless you are sick, you cannot | keep the gods you made, for only in sickness could you possibly want |

| Tx:11.22 | will judge and will judge truly. He cannot shine away what you | keep hidden, for you have not offered it to Him, and He cannot take |
| Tx:11.36 | the one promise the ego holds out to you and the one promise it will | keep. For the ego pursues its goal with fanatic insistence, and its |
| Tx:11.39 | seek and not to find is hardly joyous. Is this the promise you would | keep? The Holy Spirit offers you another promise, and one that will |
| Tx:11.66 | mind always strives for integration, and if it is split and wants to | keep the split, it will believe it has one goal by making it one. |
| Tx:11.81 | God cannot shine in a mind which has made it invisible and wants to | keep it so. For the memory of God can dawn only in a mind that wills |
| Tx:12.1 | you, could the ego possibly induce you to project guilt and thereby | keep it in your mind. |
| Tx:12.10 | you. You are not seriously disturbed by your hostility. You | keep it hidden because you are more afraid of what it covers. |
| Tx:12.16 | The reason you must look upon your delusions and not | keep them hidden is that they do not rest on their own foundation. In |
| Tx:12.31 | no gap in its own continuity can occur. Its continuity, then, would | keep you in time, while the Holy Spirit would release you from it. It |
| Tx:12.54 | are your guides to joy, for having received it of you, they would | keep it. You have established them as guides to peace, for you have |
| Tx:12.74 | will surely lose. Content yourselves with what you will as surely | keep and be not restless, for you undertake a quiet journey to the |
| Tx:13.20 | service of displacement is to hide the real source of your guilt and | keep from your awareness the full perception that it is insane. |
| Tx:13.26 | The Holy Spirit does not | keep illusions in your mind to frighten you and show them to you |
| Tx:13.28 | your Father is as pure as He Who raised it to Himself. Nothing can | keep from you what Christ would have you see. His Will is like His |
| Tx:13.41 | it will be sufficient: God wills you be in Heaven, and nothing can | keep you from it or it from you. Your wildest misperceptions, your |
| Tx:13.41 | of God. If that suffices Him, it is enough for you. You will not | keep what God would have removed, because it breaks communication |
| Tx:13.84 | He leadeth me and knows the way, which I know not. Yet He will never | keep from me what He would have me learn. And so I trust Him to |
| Tx:14.8 | Protect his purity from every thought that would steal it away and | keep it from his sight. Bring innocence to light in answer to the |
| Tx:14.18 | darkness and of ignorance, look to them only for fear, for what they | keep obscure is fearful. But let them go, and what was fearful will |
| Tx:14.19 | truth of one must make the falsity of its opposite perfectly clear. | Keep not guilt and guiltlessness apart, for your belief that you can |
| Tx:14.23 | whatever interferes with it in order to restore it. Therefore, | keep no source of interference from His sight, for He will not attack |
| Tx:14.27 | if one is kept in darkness from the other, their separation seems to | keep them both alive and equal in their reality. Their joining thus |
| Tx:14.38 | and illusion, of the ego to God, is the Holy Spirit's only function. | Keep not your making from your Father, for hiding it has cost you |
| Tx:14.58 | Knowledge is power, and all power is of God. You who have tried to | keep power for yourselves have lost it. You still have the power, but |
| Tx:14.59 | What have you taught yourselves that you can possibly prefer to | keep in place of what you have and what you are? |
| Tx:15.4 | before, but never so clearly as here. For the ego must seem to | keep fear from you to keep your allegiance. Yet it must engender fear |
| Tx:15.4 | so clearly as here. For the ego must seem to keep fear from you to | keep your allegiance. Yet it must engender fear in order to maintain |
| Tx:15.41 | can you do this when you would prefer to have private thoughts and | keep them? The only way you could do that is to deny the perfect |
| Tx:15.41 | thoughts, known only to yourself, you think you find a way to | keep what you would have alone and share what you would share. And |
| Tx:15.42 | Every thought you would | keep hidden shuts communication off because you would have it so. It |
| Tx:15.43 | are not pure. But it does require that you have none that you would | keep. Innocence is not of your making. It is given you the instant |
| Tx:15.44 | against deception and seek not to protect the thoughts you would | keep unto yourself. Let the Holy Spirit's purity shine them away and |
| Tx:15.65 | ego establishes relationships only to get something. And it would | keep the giver bound to itself through guilt. |
| Tx:15.66 | it is its purpose. For the ego really believes that it can get and | keep by making guilty. This is its one attraction; an attraction so |
| Tx:15.75 | own. The union of bodies thus becomes the way in which you would | keep minds apart. For bodies cannot forgive. They can only do as the |
| Tx:15.76 | be with a body is companionship, you will be compelled to attempt to | keep your brother in his body, held there by guilt. And you will see |
| Tx:15.101 | which you think you see some scraps of safety. Do not try longer to | keep apart your thoughts and the Thought that has been given you. |
| Tx:15.106 | it has no meaning at all apart from you. It is what you preferred to | keep that has no meaning, while all that you would keep away holds |
| Tx:15.106 | you preferred to keep that has no meaning, while all that you would | keep away holds all the meaning of the universe and holds the |
| Tx:16.3 | past that you would share, for there is nothing there that you would | keep. Do not use empathy to make the past real and so perpetuate it. |
| Tx:16.3 | it. Step gently aside and let the healing be done for you. | Keep but one thought in mind and do not lose sight of it, however |
| Tx:16.8 | meeting the needs of one, you do not jeopardize another because you | keep them separate and secret from each other. That is not the way, |
| Tx:16.11 | For this is but another way in which you would still try to | keep understanding to yourself. A better and far more helpful way to |
| Tx:16.32 | outside the haven by attempting to build barricades against it and | keep within them. The special love relationship is not perceived as a |
| Tx:16.61 | value it, you must also value the body. And what you value, you will | keep. The special relationship is a device for limiting your self to |
| Tx:16.65 | into reality. Time is kind, and if you use it for reality, it will | keep gentle pace with you in your transition. The urgency is only in |
| Tx:16.66 | in the special relationship is really part of you. And you cannot | keep part of the thought system which taught you it was real and |
| Tx:17.3 | You believe that truth cannot deal with them only because you would | keep them from truth. Very simply, your lack of faith in the power |
| Tx:17.5 | bring truth to illusions, you are trying to make illusions real and | keep them by justifying your belief in them. But to give illusions to |
| Tx:17.15 | would make the ego holy in your sight and teach you what you do to | keep it safe is really love. |
| Tx:17.36 | truth with destruction. And your defense must now be undertaken to | keep truth whole. The power of Heaven, the love of God, the tears of |
| Tx:17.64 | would have been removed. To remove the problem elsewhere is to | keep it. For you remove yourself from it and make it unsolvable. |
| Tx:17.71 | in every part. You can leave nothing of yourself outside it and | keep the situation holy. For it shares the purpose of your whole |
| Tx:17.79 | you have risen far beyond any situation that could hold you back and | keep you separate from Him Whose call you answered. |
| Tx:18.9 | to help Him show you that no substitute you made for Heaven can | keep you from it. In you there is no separation, and no substitute |
| Tx:18.9 | you from it. In you there is no separation, and no substitute can | keep you from each other. Your reality was God's creation and has no |
| Tx:18.19 | do not awaken. The special relationship] is your determination to | keep your hold on unreality and to prevent yourself from waking. And |
| Tx:18.48 | to offer to the Holy Spirit, that His blessing may descend on us and | keep us both in peace. |
| Tx:18.70 | It is this center, from which the body is absent, that will | keep it so in your awareness of it. |
| Tx:18.72 | Him there. Limits on love will always seem to shut Him out and to | keep you apart from Him. The body is a tiny fence around a little |
| Tx:18.78 | impartial in its giving, encompassing only to preserve and | keep complete what it would give. In your tiny kingdom, you have so |
| Tx:18.83 | and tired and the desert's dust still seems to cloud your eyes and | keep you sightless. Yet He Whom you welcomed has come to you and |
| Tx:18.88 | insane attacks, the fury, vengeance, and betrayal that were made to | keep the guilt in place, so that the world could rise from it and |
| Tx:18.88 | to keep the guilt in place, so that the world could rise from it and | keep it hidden. Its shadow rises to the surface, enough to hold its |
| Tx:18.88 | in darkness and to bring despair and loneliness to it and | keep it joyless. Yet its intensity is veiled by its heavy coverings |
| Tx:18.88 | veiled by its heavy coverings and kept apart from what was made to | keep it hidden. The body cannot see this, for the body arose from |
| Tx:19.6 | but without connection. This will not harm the body, but it will | keep the delusional thought system in the mind. |
| Tx:19.7 | They are together, and when they are seen together, all attempts to | keep both truth and illusion in the mind, where both must be, are |
| Tx:19.8 | the body by hiding this connection, for this concealment seems to | keep your identification safe from the “attack” of truth. |
| Tx:19.11 | yourself. It is His love that joins you, and for His love you would | keep no one separate from yours. Each one appears just as he is |
| Tx:19.15 | As faithlessness will | keep your little kingdoms barren and separate, so will faith help the |
| Tx:19.20 | Or is it, rather, an attempt to wrest creation away from truth and | keep it separate? |
| Tx:19.28 | love. What, then, is sin? What could it be but a mistake you would | keep hidden—a call for help that you would keep unheard and thus |
| Tx:19.28 | but a mistake you would keep hidden—a call for help that you would | keep unheard and thus unanswered? In time the Holy Spirit clearly |
| Tx:19.36 | other, and let not sin arise again to blind your eyes. For sin would | keep you separate, but your Redeemer would have you look upon each |
| Tx:19.40 | is your desire to get rid of it. For it cannot extend unless you | keep it. You are the center from which it radiates outward to call |
| Tx:19.41 | This little wall of hatred would still oppose the Will of God and | keep it limited. |
| Tx:19.42 | it. What you would still contain behind your little barrier and | keep separate from each other seems mightier than the universe, for |
| Tx:19.42 | its Creator. This little wall would hide the purpose of Heaven and | keep it from Heaven. |
| Tx:19.45 | little wall of shadows. The sun has risen over it. How can a shadow | keep you from the sun? No more can you be kept by shadows from the |
| Tx:19.57 | I love, knowing its littleness? Or would I teach that bodies cannot | keep us apart? Mine was no greater value than yours; no better means |
| Tx:19.66 | come ye faithful to the holy union of the Father and Son in you! And | keep you not apart from what is offered you in gratitude for giving |
| Tx:19.67 | raise to freedom and bar my way to you. Yet it is not possible to | keep away One Who is there already. And in Him it is possible that |
| Tx:19.73 | Holy Spirit tells you this with joy. The ego hides it, for it would | keep you unaware of it. Who would send messages of hatred and attack |
| Tx:19.81 | of corruption, a sacrifice to sin, offered to sin to feed upon and | keep itself alive—a thing condemned, damned by its maker, and |
| Tx:19.82 | You have another dedication which would | keep the body incorruptible and perfect as long as it is useful for |
| Tx:19.92 | that it is there. This is the secret bargain made with the ego to | keep what lies beyond the veil forever blotted out and unremembered. |
| Tx:19.97 | It would not have you see its weakness and learn it has no power to | keep you from the truth. The Guide Who brought you here remains with |
| Tx:19.101 | interpretation of him is very fearful. And you attack him still, to | keep what seems to be yourself unharmed. Yet in his hands is your |
| Tx:20.17 | deems necessary and interposing them between those who would meet to | keep them separate and prevent their union. It is this studied |
| Tx:20.28 | them not and gives no power to their seeming source. Thus would He | keep you free of them. Being without illusion of what you are, the |
| Tx:20.46 | understood, and shared. It has no secrets; nothing that it would | keep apart and hide. It walks in sunlight, open-eyed and calm, in |
| Tx:20.47 | sunlight and happy in the body's darkness where they can hide and | keep their secrets hidden along with them. And they have no |
| Tx:20.49 | Here the unholy relationship escapes reality and seeks for crumbs to | keep itself alive. Here it would drag its brothers, holding them here |
| Tx:20.57 | memory of their relationship with their Father from themselves and | keep remembrance of His love apart from their awareness? |
| Tx:21.6 | to them because they cannot see. They do not understand the lessons | keep them blind. This they do not believe. And so they keep the world |
| Tx:21.6 | the lessons keep them blind. This they do not believe. And so they | keep the world they learned to “see” in their imagination, believing |
| Tx:21.7 | and fail again. And they adjust to loneliness, believing that to | keep the body is to save the little that they have. Listen and try to |
| Tx:21.18 | Begrudge not, then, this little offering. Withhold it, and you | keep the world as now you see it. Give it away, and everything you |
| Tx:21.25 | of cause and effect becomes inevitable. The purpose now becomes to | keep obscure the cause of the effect and make effect appear to be a |
| Tx:21.29 | whom you have a limited relationship you hate. You may attempt to | keep the bargain in the name of “fairness,” sometimes demanding |
| Tx:21.31 | This is indeed a little feat for such a power. For faith can | keep the Son of God in chains as long as he believes he is in chains. |
| Tx:21.48 | the ego's weakness is revealed in both your sight. What it would | keep apart has met and joined, and looks upon the ego unafraid. |
| Tx:22.36 | Let not the form of his mistakes | keep you from him whose holiness is yours. Let not the vision of his |
| Tx:22.47 | Father Whom you would defend against. Yet it remains impossible to | keep love out. God rests with you in quiet, undefended and wholly |
| Tx:22.60 | came about, for here lies buried the heavy anchor that seems to | keep the fear of God in place, unmovable and solid as a rock. While |
| Tx:22.65 | of love is there, which makes all fear impossible? Do not attempt to | keep a little of the ego with this gift. For it was given you to be |
| Tx:23.27 | seek to share the things they value. And what your enemies would | keep from you must be worth having, just because they keep it hidden |
| Tx:23.27 | enemies would keep from you must be worth having, just because they | keep it hidden from your sight. |
| Tx:24.7 | can attack it, and they do. For what your brother must become to | keep your specialness is an illusion. He who is “worse” than you must |
| Tx:24.8 | that love might be extended, not cut off from one another. What you | keep is lost to you. God gave you both Himself, and to remember this |
| Tx:24.14 | of Heaven and instead of peace and wrapped it carefully in sin to | keep it “safe” from truth. |
| Tx:24.21 | to God as God is to Himself. He is not special, for He would not | keep one part of what He is unto Himself, not given to His Son but |
| Tx:24.37 | before it. Yet what comfort has ever been in them that you would | keep the gift your Father asks from Him and give it there instead? |
| Tx:25.7 | there, before Him now, to let Him draw aside the veil that seems to | keep you separate and apart. |
| Tx:25.12 | hold is that you learn it gave you no rewards that you would want to | keep. For only thus will you be willing to relinquish it and have it |
| Tx:25.63 | of Him. But this He needs—that you prefer He take it than that you | keep it for yourself alone and recognize that what brings loss to no |
| Tx:25.66 | be laid beside your little payment to “atone” for all that you would | keep and not give up. So is the victim seen as partly you, with |
| Tx:25.84 | the Holy Spirit to solve for you means that you want it solved. To | keep it for yourself to solve without His help is to decide it should |
| Tx:25.86 | The little problems that you | keep and hide become your secret sins because you did not choose to |
| Tx:26.2 | away within the wall. Each part must sacrifice the other part to | keep itself complete. For if they joined, each one would lose its own |
| Tx:26.3 | And all the rest must lose this little part, remaining incomplete to | keep its own identity intact. In this perception of yourself, the |
| Tx:26.6 | of its reality. Nor can you lose what you would sacrifice nor | keep the Holy Spirit from His task of showing you that it has not |
| Tx:26.9 | but to release the holy Son of God from the imprisonment he made to | keep himself from justice? Could your function be a task apart and |
| Tx:26.14 | believe it safe to give but some mistakes to be corrected while you | keep the others to yourself, remember this: justice is total. There |
| Tx:26.14 | him because you will not look at what is there to see? Each time you | keep a problem for yourself to solve or judge that it is one which |
| Tx:26.16 | willing to receive correction for all your problems. You will not | keep one, for pain in any form you will not want. And you will see |
| Tx:26.26 | And what has been forgiven must join, for nothing stands between to | keep them separate and apart. The sinless must perceive that they are |
| Tx:26.34 | The tiny instant you would | keep and make eternal passed away in Heaven too soon for anything to |
| Tx:26.35 | instant still called back, as if it could be made again in time. You | keep an ancient memory before your eyes. And he who lives in memories |
| Tx:26.39 | of resurrection, not of death. No past illusions have the power to | keep you in a place of death, a vault God's Son entered an instant, |
| Tx:26.44 | one illusion real and still escape the rest. For who can choose to | keep the ones which he prefers and find the safety that the truth |
| Tx:26.68 | the benefits of trust. This but reflects the little you would | keep between yourselves that you might be a little separate. For time |
| Tx:26.69 | There is a distance you would | keep apart from one another, and this space you see as time because |
| Tx:26.70 | as the body is except in terms of what you see it for. If you would | keep a little space between you still, you want a little time in |
| Tx:26.83 | Around you angels hover lovingly, to | keep away all darkened thoughts of sin and keep the light where it |
| Tx:26.83 | angels hover lovingly, to keep away all darkened thoughts of sin and | keep the light where it has entered in. Your footprints lighten up |
| Tx:27.27 | He cannot understand and recognize as His. For only thus can He | keep yours preserved intact, despite your separate views of what your |
| Tx:27.54 | voice whose shrieks would silence what the Holy Spirit says and | keep His words from your awareness. Pain compels attention, drawing |
| Tx:27.63 | has been obscured by heavy clouds of complication which were made to | keep the problem unresolved? Without the clouds, the problem will |
| Tx:27.84 | the guilt to rest on them. How childish is this petulant device to | keep your innocence by pushing guilt outside yourself but never |
| Tx:27.89 | all. For they attest the thing you do not want to know. They seem to | keep it secret from you. Yet you need but learn you choose but not to |
| Tx:28.5 | is quite apart from time. He does not seek to use it as a means to | keep the past, but rather as a way to let it go. Memory holds the |
| Tx:28.5 | body's past is hidden there. All of the strange associations made to | keep the past alive, the present dead, are stored within it, waiting |
| Tx:28.6 | hand in hand with all the other attributes with which you seek to | keep concealed the truth about yourself. Time neither takes away nor |
| Tx:28.7 | that you taught yourself, for you were badly taught. And who would | keep a senseless lesson in his mind when he can learn and can |
| Tx:28.8 | has never changed because there never was a time in which He did not | keep It safely in your mind. Its consequences will indeed seem new |
| Tx:28.13 | instantly the memory of God arises in the mind that has no fear to | keep the memory away. Its own remembering has gone. There is no past |
| Tx:28.13 | the memory away. Its own remembering has gone. There is no past to | keep its fearful image in the way of glad awakening to present peace. |
| Tx:28.23 | the dream the Father was deprived of His effects and powerless to | keep them since He was no longer their Creator. In the dream, the |
| Tx:28.31 | seeds of pestilence and every form of ill because it is a wish to | keep apart and not to join. And thus it seems to give a cause to |
| Tx:28.31 | of the gap is all the cause that sickness has. For it was made to | keep you separated in a body which you see as if it were the cause of |
| Tx:28.32 | waves when they have joined and covered up the space which seemed to | keep them separate for a little while? Where are the grounds for |
| Tx:28.33 | Let its effects be gone and clutch them not with eager hands, to | keep them for yourself. The miracle will brush them all aside and |
| Tx:28.34 | and golden dreams of happiness as all the treasures you would | keep within the storehouse of the world. The door is open, not to |
| Tx:28.36 | has no end. For Love has set Its table in the space that seemed to | keep your Guests apart from you. |
| Tx:28.56 | for the limitations which you want your mind to have and see and | keep. |
| Tx:28.59 | with each one—that you be one with him and not apart. And he will | keep the promise that you make with him because it is the one which |
| Tx:28.64 | prove that you must be apart. Yet all it means is that you tried to | keep a promise to be true to faithlessness. Yet faithlessness is |
| Tx:29.3 | which a clause of separation was a point on which you both agreed to | keep intact. And violating this was thought to be a breach of treaty |
| Tx:29.4 | the “right” to separate will you agree to meet from time to time and | keep apart in intervals of separation, which protect you from the |
| Tx:29.5 | weaknesses set up the limitations on what you would do and | keep your purpose limited and weak. |
| Tx:29.21 | as not a body, one with him, without the wall the world has built to | keep apart all living things who know not that they live. Within the |
| Tx:29.23 | him unsaved. For it was in your face he saw the light that he would | keep beside him as he walks through darkness to the everlasting light. |
| Tx:29.25 | and others wakened from? The choice is not between which dreams to | keep, but only if you want to live in dreams or to awaken from them. |
| Tx:29.35 | knew the glorious goal that lies beyond forgiveness, you would not | keep hold on any thought, however light the touch of evil on it may |
| Tx:29.36 | in a separated world, each with his tiny spear and rusted sword to | keep his ancient promises to die. |
| Tx:29.39 | not to die, you holy Son of God! You make a bargain that you cannot | keep. The Son of Life cannot be killed. He is immortal as his Father. |
| Tx:29.48 | All idols of this world were made to | keep the truth within from being known to you and to maintain |
| Tx:29.63 | part of what they have been made to save you from. Thus does an idol | keep the dream alive and terrible, for who could wish for one unless |
| Tx:29.65 | his own because they seem to save him from his thoughts. Yet do they | keep his thoughts alive and real but seen outside himself, where they |
| Tx:29.70 | have made a new beginning, not another try to worship idols and to | keep attack. Forgiving dreams are kind to everyone who figures in the |
| Tx:30.32 | there can be a decision. Let this be the one reminder that you | keep in mind, and you will have the day you want and give it to the |
| Tx:30.36 | has made you co-creator of the universe along with Him. He would but | keep your will forever and forever limitless. |
| Tx:30.48 | God holds of you is your reality. Forget not, then, that idols must | keep hidden what you are, not from the Mind of God, but from your |
| Tx:30.73 | This is the false forgiveness which the world employs to | keep the sense of sin alive. And recognizing God is just, it seems |
| Tx:30.75 | joylessness forgiveness cannot heal. This means that you prefer to | keep some idols and are not prepared as yet to let all idols go. And |
| Tx:30.76 | only some of it. You must forgive God's Son entirely. Or you will | keep an image of yourself that is not whole and will remain afraid to |
| Tx:30.77 | on your brother with the willingness to see him as he is. And do not | keep a part of him outside your willingness that he be healed. To |
| Tx:30.91 | more than this—a prayer the miracle touch not some dreams but | keep their unreality obscure and give to them reality instead. And |
| Tx:31.20 | do you count your own. And we go separately along the way unless you | keep him safely by your side. |
| Tx:31.30 | a sin has but one purpose—that the body be the source of sin and | keep it in the prison-house it chose and guard and hold itself at |
| Tx:31.31 | escaped. You will not want to hold in guilt your chosen enemies nor | keep in chains to the illusion of a changing love the ones you think |
| Tx:31.33 | offer consolation and escape from problems which its purpose is to | keep. Why should this be? Because it is a place where choice among |
| Tx:31.38 | world is but the search for different forms of truth. And this would | keep the truth from being reached. |
| Tx:31.41 | left His Thoughts! He could no more depart from them than they could | keep Him out. In unity with Him do they abide, and in their Oneness |
| Tx:31.73 | be fixed unless you choose to hold it past the hope of change and | keep it static and concealed within your mind. Give it instead to Him |
| Tx:31.76 | which you give to the illusion of yourself that it may fight to | keep the space that holds your brother off unoccupied by love. Yet |
| Tx:31.79 | on the simple choice of whether you would join with what you see or | keep yourself apart and separate. |
| W1:3.2 | you really understand about them. It is therefore essential that you | keep a perfectly open mind, unhampered by judgment, in selecting the |
| W1:5.9 | I cannot | keep this form of upset and let the others go. For the purposes of |
| W1:6.7 | I cannot | keep this form of upset and let the others go. For the purposes of |
| W1:12.2 | the shift to become markedly longer or shorter, but try, instead, to | keep a measured, even tempo throughout. What you see does not matter. |
| W1:27.7 | perhaps quite a number. Do not be disturbed by this, but do try to | keep on your schedule from then on. If only once during the day you |
| W1:28.1 | a series of definite commitments. The question of whether you will | keep them in the future is not our concern here. If you are willing |
| W1:37.9 | him the blessing of your holiness immediately that you may learn to | keep it in your own awareness. |
| W1:38.8 | Introduce whatever variations appeal to you, but | keep the exercises focused on the theme “There is nothing my holiness |
| W1:64.11 | to concentrate on the thoughts you are applying. At other times | keep your eyes open after reviewing the thoughts and look slowly and |
| W1:65.14 | Sometimes close your eyes as you practice, and sometimes | keep them open and look about you. It is what you see now that will |
| W1:69.8 | to remember that you are at last joining your will to God's. Try to | keep the thought clearly in mind that what you undertake with God |
| W1:70.4 | healing from the sickness for which it was intended and thus | keep the sickness. |
| W1:72.3 | Although the attempt to | keep the limitations which a body would impose is obvious here, it is |
| W1:73.12 | After reminding yourself of this and determining to | keep your will clearly in mind, tell yourself with gentle firmness |
| W1:75.7 | Dwell not upon the past today. | Keep a completely open mind, washed of all past ideas and clean of |
| W1:75.15 | We dedicate this day to the serenity in which God would have you be. | Keep it in your awareness of yourself and see it everywhere today, as |
| W1:76.12 | speak of this to us, as well as of the joys of Heaven which His laws | keep limitless forever. We will repeat today's idea until we have |
| W1:79.4 | The temptation to regard problems as many is the temptation to | keep the problem of separation unsolved. The world seems to present |
| W1:84.5 | Grievances are completely alien to love. Grievances attack love and | keep its light obscure. If I hold grievances I am attacking love and |
| W1:85.2 | would see. Recognizing this, what do I want my grievances for? They | keep me in darkness and hide the light. Grievances and light cannot |
| W1:95.7 | We will therefore | keep to the five minutes an hour practice periods for a while and |
| W1:95.11 | go by recognizing them for what they are. They are attempts to | keep you unaware you are One Self, united with your Creator, at one |
| W1:100.10 | little thought has power to hold you back? What foolish goal can | keep you from success when He Who calls to you is God Himself? He |
| W1:R3.11 | time in silence and in peace. Then turn to other things, but try to | keep the thought with you and let it serve to help you keep your |
| W1:R3.11 | but try to keep the thought with you and let it serve to help you | keep your peace throughout the day as well. If you are shaken, think |
| W1:124.7 | accordingly. We have accepted and we now would give, for we would | keep the gifts our Father gave. Today we would experience ourselves |
| W1:127.5 | What the world believes was made to hide love's meaning and to | keep it dark and secret. There is not one principle the world upholds |
| W1:129.5 | as you unbind your mind from little things the world sets forth to | keep you prisoner there. Value them not, and they will disappear. |
| W1:130.3 | would you want that this is shown to you? What would you wish to | keep in such a dream? |
| W1:132.4 | your pain and tears, and all your sorrows press upon it and | keep it a prisoner to your beliefs. Death strikes it everywhere |
| W1:133.9 | It does not even tell the truth as it perceives it, for it needs to | keep the halo which it uses to protect its goals from tarnish and |
| W1:133.10 | that he has served the ego's hidden goals. And though he tries to | keep its halo clear within his vision, yet must he perceive its |
| W1:134.10 | for choice in terms which render choosing meaningful and | keep your mind as free of guilt and pain as God Himself intended it |
| W1:135.9 | the mind can operate until its usefulness is over. Who would want to | keep it when its usefulness is done? |
| W1:135.29 | This is my Eastertime. And I would | keep it holy. I will not defend myself, because the Son of God needs |
| W1:136.2 | to a little pile of unassembled parts. The aim of all defenses is to | keep the truth from being whole. The parts are seen as if each one |
| W1:136.18 | imaginings. There will be no dark corners sickness can conceal and | keep defended from the light of truth. There will be no dim figures |
| W1:137.2 | Sickness is isolation. For it seems to | keep one self apart from all the rest to suffer what the others do |
| W1:137.2 | feel. It gives the body final power to make the separation real and | keep the mind in solitary prison, split apart and held in pieces by a |
| W1:138.8 | armored against truth. And these decisions are made unaware to | keep them safely undisturbed, apart from question and from reason and |
| W1:139.13 | Son of God. And learn the fragile nature of the chains that seem to | keep the knowledge of yourself apart from your awareness, as you say: |
| W1:153.18 | for you will know that Heaven goes with you. Nor would you | keep your mind away from Him a moment, even though your time is spent |
| W1:153.20 | will now begin to take the earnestness of love to help you | keep your mind from wandering from its intent. |
| W1:154.10 | joining that we undertake to recognize today. We will not seek to | keep our minds apart from Him Who speaks for us, for it is but our |
| W1:155.10 | way you traveled will be gone from you as well, with nothing left to | keep the truth apart from God's completion, holy as Himself. Step |
| W1:156.7 | this foolish thought. The past is gone with all its fantasies. They | keep you bound no longer. The approach to God is near. And in the |

| Tx:16.78 | nothing against anyone, for He is incapable of illusions of any | kind. Release your brothers from the slavery of their illusions by |
| Tx:17.18 | unholy relationship. For time is cruel in the ego's hands, as it is | kind when used for gentleness. The attraction of the unholy |
| Tx:19.53 | will see only the blameless and the beautiful, the gentle and the | kind. They will be as careful to let no little act of charity, no |
| Tx:19.53 | Theirs are the messages of safety, for they see the world as | kind. |
| Tx:19.58 | has been removed and substitutes for it. Communion is another | kind of completion which goes beyond guilt because it goes beyond the |
| Tx:19.69 | Faith in the eternal is always justified, for the eternal is forever | kind, infinite in its patience, and wholly loving. It will accept you |
| Tx:19.107 | him the self-same gift, nor look upon him with condemnation of any | kind. See him as guiltless as I look on you, and overlook the sins he |
| Tx:20.17 | Adjustments of any | kind are of the ego. For it is the ego's fixed belief that all |
| Tx:21.57 | cannot be applied to sin. Knowledge is far beyond attainment of any | kind. But reason can serve to open doors you closed against it. |
| Tx:21.59 | give it, thus maintaining the belief. For uncorrected error of any | kind deceives you about the power that is in you to make correction. |
| Tx:21.65 | Reason is given you to understand that this is so. For reason, | kind as is the purpose for which it is the means, leads steadily away |
| Tx:21.87 | The constancy of happiness has no exceptions—no change of any | kind. It is unshakable as is the love of God for His creation. Sure |
| Tx:22.5 | arise? It is as though you wandered in without a plan of any | kind except to wander off, for only that seems certain. |
| Tx:22.17 | joy. What else but joy could be the opposite of misery? To leave one | kind of misery and seek another is hardly an escape. To change |
| Tx:22.62 | But you will not remember this while you believe attack of any | kind means anything. It is unjustified in any form because it has no |
| Tx:23.1 | and nothing else is strong. The sinless cannot fear, for sin of any | kind is weakness. The show of strength attack would use to cover |
| Tx:23.4 | does not exist. Your purpose is at variance with littleness of any | kind. And so it is at variance with sin. |
| Tx:23.6 | in it. So will you come to understand all that is given you. In | kind forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and everything you |
| Tx:23.10 | was God Himself, to Whom all conflict, triumph, and attack of any | kind are all unknown. He loves you perfectly, completely, and |
| Tx:23.21 | to understand that miracles apply to all of them. Errors of any | kind can be corrected because they are untrue. When brought to truth |
| Tx:23.28 | they would respond with only kindness. But in a savage world, the | kind cannot survive, so they must take or else be taken from. |
| Tx:23.43 | Salvation is no compromise of any | kind. To compromise is to accept but part of what you want—to take |
| Tx:23.54 | and who know that it is theirs! They want for nothing. Sorrow of any | kind is inconceivable. Only the light they love is in awareness, and |
| Tx:23.54 | it is impossible their happiness could ever suffer change of any | kind. Perhaps you think the battleground can offer something that you |
| Tx:24.5 | for they are different and not the same. And difference of any | kind imposes orders of reality and a need to judge that cannot be |
| Tx:24.9 | Could you attack each other if you chose to see no specialness of any | kind between you? Look fairly at whatever makes you give each other |
| Tx:24.25 | has failed and will forever fail to bring you peace and joy of any | kind? Through this despair you travel now, yet it is but illusion of |
| Tx:24.39 | when peace is not with you entirely and when you suffer pain of any | kind, you have beheld some sin within your brother and have rejoiced |
| Tx:24.57 | wandering, without a purpose and without accomplishment of any | kind, is all the other choice can offer you. Futility of function not |
| Tx:24.68 | size nor weight nor time nor held to limits or uncertainties of any | kind. Here do the means and end unite as one, nor does this one have |
| Tx:25.46 | Such is the Holy Spirit's | kind perception of specialness—His use of what you made, to heal |
| Tx:25.65 | There is a | kind of justice in salvation of which the world knows nothing. To the |
| Tx:25.81 | for an attack. Only a loss could justify attack, and loss of any | kind He cannot see. The world solves problems in another way. It sees |
| Tx:25.83 | must be for everyone because he does not merit an attack of any | kind. What order can there be in miracles, unless someone deserves to |
| Tx:26.61 | and thus denies that everything is his, unlimited by loss of any | kind. A tiny sacrifice is just the same in its effects as is the |
| Tx:26.64 | is no pain or suffering. Forgiveness is the answer to attack of any | kind. So is attack deprived of its effects, and hate is answered in |
| Tx:26.86 | without a cause or consequence and cannot have effects of any | kind. Their Presence is obscured by any veil which stands between |
| Tx:27.6 | his madness bid him do was ever done or ever had effects of any | kind; that no reproach he laid upon his heart was ever justified, and |
| Tx:27.32 | what can stand for more than everything? Yet true undoing must be | kind. And so the first replacement for your picture is another |
| Tx:27.32 | the first replacement for your picture is another picture of another | kind. |
| Tx:27.34 | so lately left unoccupied and vacant will not need defense of any | kind. For you will give it overwhelming preference. Nor delay an |
| Tx:27.35 | do not know the peace of power which opposes nothing. Yet no other | kind can be at all. Give welcome to the Power beyond forgiveness and |
| Tx:29.70 | try to worship idols and to keep attack. Forgiving dreams are | kind to everyone who figures in the dream. And so they bring the |
| Tx:30.2 | weak, you are not ready. Do not fight yourself. But think about the | kind of day you want and tell yourself there is a way in which this |
| Tx:30.7 | it and have a quiet moment for reflection, tell yourself again the | kind of day you want, the feelings you would have, the things you |
| Tx:30.31 | advisor in the world. Whose kingdom is the world for you today? What | kind of day will you decide to have? |
| Tx:31.57 | secret wishes. Nothing more than this. And in your suffering of any | kind, you see your own concealed desire to kill. |
| Tx:31.67 | where nothing need be feared but only loved. Who is unwelcome to the | kind in heart? And what could hurt the truly innocent? Your will be |
| Tx:31.72 | offered you. Hold out your hand that you may have the gift of | kind forgiveness which you offer one whose need for it is just the |
| W1:3.1 | same way as the previous ones, without making distinctions of any | kind. Whatever you see becomes a proper subject for applying the |
| W1:4.5 | preoccupied. Further, since these exercises are the first of their | kind, you may find the suspension of judgment in connection with |
| W1:7.9 | on past experiences? How else would you know whether or not this | kind of cup will break if you drop it? What do you know about this |
| W1:10.2 | This is the second time we have used this | kind of idea. The form is only slightly different. This time the idea |
| W1:10.6 | without selection or judgment. Try to avoid classification of any | kind. In fact, if you find it helpful to do so, you might imagine |
| W1:13.8 | attempt at stating an explicit cause and effect relationship of a | kind which you are very inexperienced in recognizing. Do not dwell on |
| W1:30.2 | Today we are trying to use the new | kind of projection. We are not attempting to get rid of what we do |
| W1:35.3 | you as you must really be in truth. We will use a somewhat different | kind of application for today's idea because the emphasis for today |
| W1:38.1 | beyond every restriction of time, space, distance, and limits of any | kind. Your holiness is totally unlimited in its power because it |
| W1:38.4 | then search your mind for any sense of loss or unhappiness of any | kind as you see it. Try to make as little distinction as possible |
| W1:39.7 | events, or personalities you associate with unloving thoughts of any | kind are suitable subjects for today's exercises. It is imperative |
| W1:41.7 | successful. We will go into more detail in connection with this | kind of practice as we go along. But it will never fail completely, |
| W1:43.14 | those you know well. Try, in fact, not to make distinctions of this | kind at all. |
| W1:43.15 | occur, particularly to those which distress you in any way. For this | kind of application, use this form: |
| W1:44.7 | times more. Then try to sink into your mind, letting go every | kind of interference and intrusion by quietly sinking past them. Your |
| W1:45.11 | For this | kind of practice, only one thing is necessary—approach it as you |
| W1:46.13 | be needed at any time during the day when you become aware of any | kind of negative reaction to anyone, present or not. In this event, |
| W1:49.2 | a wild illusion, frantic and distraught, but without reality of any | kind. Try today not to listen to it. Try to identify with the part of |
| W1:67.3 | Holiness created me holy. Kindness created me | kind. Helpfulness created me helpful. Perfection created me perfect. |
| W1:73.17 | in this form immediately you are tempted to hold a grievance of any | kind. This will help you let your grievances go instead of cherishing |
| W1:98.6 | is an offer guaranteeing you your full release from pain of every | kind and joy the world does not contain. You can exchange a little of |
| W1:103.6 | throughout the day, and quiet all your fears with this assurance, | kind and wholly true: |
| W1:108.5 | these are but some special cases of one law which holds for every | kind of learning if it be directed by the One Who knows the truth. |
| W1:R3.12 | in all ways, all times and places, and whenever you need help of any | kind. Try, then, to take it with you in the business of the day and |
| W1:127.1 | different kinds of love are possible. Perhaps you think there is a | kind of love for this, a kind for that; a way of loving one, another |
| W1:127.1 | are possible. Perhaps you think there is a kind of love for this, a | kind for that; a way of loving one, another way of loving still |
| W1:130.5 | It is impossible to see two worlds which have no overlap of any | kind. Seek for the one; the other disappears. But one remains. They |
| W1:130.10 | what you will look upon. For though it is perception, it is not the | kind of seeing that your eyes alone have ever seen before. And you |
| W1:131.13 | I ask to see a different world and think a different | kind of thought from those I made. The world I seek I did not make |
| W1:132.11 | Self is the salvation of the world? To free the world from every | kind of pain is but to change your mind about yourself. There is no |
| W1:135.11 | is this where you look for its defense? You offer it protection of a | kind from which it gains no benefit at all but merely adds to your |
| W1:135.25 | which you thought confronted you. But they are answers to another | kind of question which remains unanswered yet in need of answering |
| W1:136.1 | no meaning. Being causeless and without a meaningful intent of any | kind, it cannot be at all. When this is seen, healing is automatic. |
| W1:155.5 | these paths there is another road that leads away from loss of every | kind, for sacrifice and deprivation both are quickly left behind. |
| W1:157.1 | This day is holy, for it ushers in a new experience, a different | kind of feeling and awareness. You have spent long days and nights in |
| W1:167.2 | supremely happy. It is the alarm to which you give response of any | kind that is not perfect joy. All sorrow, loss, anxiety, and |
| W1:167.4 | contain, becoming different from their own origin, apart from it in | kind as well as distance, time, and form. |
| W1:167.8 | opposite to thoughts of life. Forever unopposed by opposites of any | kind, the thoughts of God remain forever changeless with the power to |
| W1:168.2 | be impossible, for hope would be forever satisfied; despair of any | kind unthinkable. His grace His answer is to all despair, for in it |
| W1:184.7 | proper place, it serves but as a starting point from which another | kind of learning can begin, a new perception can be gained, and all |
| W1:190.7 | dreams. Your thoughts of death envelop it in fear, while in your | kind forgiveness does it live. |
| W1:192.3 | into form the wholly formless. What He makes are dreams, but of a | kind so close to waking that the light of day already shines in them. |
| W1:196.12 | that still remain between you and the holy peace of God. How | kind and merciful is the idea we practice! Give it welcome, as you |
| W1:198.8 | of any condemnation which could need forgiveness. Dreams of any | kind are strange and alien to the truth. Yet what but Truth could |
| W1:198.12 | today be celebrated both on earth and in your holy home as well. Be | kind to both, as you forgive the trespasses you thought them guilty |
| W2:284.1 | There is no grief with any cause at all. And suffering of any | kind is nothing but a dream. Such is the truth—at first to be but |
| W2:WIRW.3 | peace within itself. No danger lurks in anything it sees, for it is | kind and only kindness does it look upon. |
| W2:333.1 | somewhere else, called by another name, nor hidden by deceit of any | kind if it would be escaped. It must be seen exactly as it is, where |
| W2:341.2 | our sinlessness. For it contains the Word of God to us, and in its | kind reflection we are saved. |

| W1:127.1 | Perhaps you think that different | kinds of love are possible. Perhaps you think there is a kind of love |
| W1:127.1 | another. Love is one. It has no separate parts and no degrees; no | kinds nor levels, no divergencies and no distinctions. It is like |

| Tx:1.51 | Only the error is really vulnerable. You are free to establish your | kingdom where you see fit, but the right choice is inevitable if you |
| Tx:3.71 | wished is as real as what is willed. Instead of, “Seek ye first the | Kingdom of Heaven” say, “Will ye first the Kingdom of Heaven,” and |
| Tx:3.71 | of, “Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven” say, “Will ye first the | Kingdom of Heaven,” and you have said, “I know what I am, and I will |

| Tx:3.80 | death but by truth, and truth can be known by all those for whom the | Kingdom was created and for whom it waits. |
| Tx:4.19 | their egos are humble, and this gives them better perception. The | Kingdom of Heaven is the right of the Soul, whose beauty and dignity |
| Tx:4.41 | You have never understood what “the | Kingdom of Heaven is within you” means. The reason you have not |

| Tx:4.41 | else but you did the Creator create, and what else but you is His | Kingdom? This is the whole message of the Atonement, a message which |
| Tx:4.42 | You too have a | kingdom which your Soul created. It has not ceased to create because |
| Tx:4.43 | The | Kingdom is perfectly united and perfectly protected, and the ego will |
| Tx:4.53 | me make other minds ready for Him. How long will you deny Him His | Kingdom? |
| Tx:4.54 | That is why we made no distinction before between having the | Kingdom of God and being the Kingdom of God. |
| Tx:4.54 | distinction before between having the Kingdom of God and being the | Kingdom of God. |
| Tx:4.55 | The calm being of God's | Kingdom, which in your sane mind is perfectly conscious, is |
| Tx:4.90 | things, but it does set all things right. Because you are all the | Kingdom of God, I can lead you back to your own creations, which you |
| Tx:4.101 | God has kept your | kingdom for you, but He cannot share His joy with you until you know |
| Tx:4.102 | out to them and through them, and there is great joy throughout the | Kingdom. Every mind that is changed adds to this joy with its own |
| Tx:4.102 | workers whom I direct until we are all united in the joy of the | Kingdom. I will direct you to wherever you can be truly helpful and |
| Tx:5.13 | a kind of perception in which many elements are like those in the | Kingdom of Heaven itself. |
| Tx:5.21 | You are the | Kingdom of Heaven, but you have let the belief in darkness enter your |

| Tx:5.47 | The Atonement is the guarantee of the safety of the | Kingdom. Nothing good is lost because it comes from the Holy Spirit, |

| Tx:5.73 | the Kingdom always, and remember that you who are part of the | Kingdom cannot be lost. The mind that was in me is in you, for God |
| Tx:5.78 | thought which you have given to the ego will merely return to the | Kingdom, where your whole mind belongs. The ego is a form of arrest, |
| Tx:5.78 | welcomes that interpretation. You can delay the completion of the | Kingdom, but you cannot introduce the concept of assault into it. |
| Tx:6.10 | true for me. Help me to teach it to our brothers in the name of the | Kingdom of God, but first believe that it is true for you, or you |
| Tx:6.32 | the laws of God. God created you to create. You cannot extend His | Kingdom until you know of its wholeness. |
| Tx:6.37 | looks He sees Himself, and because He is united, He offers the whole | Kingdom always. This is the one message God gave to Him and for which |
| Tx:6.38 | The great peace of the | Kingdom shines in your mind forever, but it must shine outward to |
| Tx:6.38 | but the Holy Spirit is One. No darkness abides anywhere in the | Kingdom, but your part is only to allow no darkness to abide in your |
| Tx:6.38 | the world, and by joining our minds in this light, we proclaim the | Kingdom of God together and as one. |
| Tx:6.46 | created you, He made you part of Him. That is why attack within the | Kingdom is impossible. You made the ego without love, and so it does |
| Tx:6.46 | love, and so it does not love you. You could not remain within the | Kingdom without love, and since the Kingdom is love, you believe that |
| Tx:6.46 | You could not remain within the Kingdom without love, and since the | Kingdom is love, you believe that you are without it. This enables |
| Tx:6.50 | the ego raises. You are a Child of God, a priceless part of His | Kingdom, which He created as part of Him. Nothing else exists, and |
| Tx:6.51 | Yet the | Kingdom and all that you have created there will have great reality |
| Tx:6.51 | great reality for you, because they are beautiful and true. In the | Kingdom, where you are and what you are is perfectly certain. There |

| Tx:6.53 | have no commander except yourself. This leaves you in charge of the | Kingdom with both a Guide to find it and a means to keep it. You have |
| Tx:6.62 | make the body because it is destructible and therefore not of the | Kingdom. The body is the symbol of what you think you are. It is |
| Tx:6.64 | We have too much to accomplish on behalf of the | Kingdom to let this crucial concept slip away. It is a real |
| Tx:6.82 | Whatever is in accord with this light, He retains to strengthen the | Kingdom in you. What is partly in accord with truth, He accepts and |
| Tx:6.82 | entirely, He rejects by judging against. This is how He keeps the | Kingdom perfectly consistent and perfectly unified. |
| Tx:6.85 | Be vigilant only for God and His | Kingdom. |
| Tx:6.88 | your will from choice and direct it towards creation within the | Kingdom. Choosing through the Holy Spirit will lead you to the |
| Tx:6.88 | the Kingdom. Choosing through the Holy Spirit will lead you to the | Kingdom. You create by what you are, but this is what you must learn. |
| Tx:6.90 | want to learn peace. This is the condition for identifying with the | Kingdom since it is the condition of the Kingdom. You have believed |
| Tx:6.90 | for identifying with the Kingdom since it is the condition of the | Kingdom. You have believed that you are without the Kingdom and have |
| Tx:6.90 | condition of the Kingdom. You have believed that you are without the | Kingdom and have therefore excluded yourself from it in your belief. |
| Tx:6.91 | for being without question. As long as belief in God and His | Kingdom is assailed by any doubts in your minds, His perfect |
| Tx:6.93 | The wholeness of the | Kingdom does not depend on your perception, but your awareness of its |
| Tx:6.94 | Truth is without illusions and therefore within the | Kingdom. Everything outside the Kingdom is illusion, but you must |
| Tx:6.94 | illusions and therefore within the Kingdom. Everything outside the | Kingdom is illusion, but you must learn to accept truth, because you |
| Tx:6.94 | therefore saw yourself as if you were without it. By making another | Kingdom which you valued, you did not keep only the Kingdom of God in |
| Tx:6.94 | making another Kingdom which you valued, you did not keep only the | Kingdom of God in your minds and thus placed part of your mind |
| Tx:7.2 | If you created God and He created you, the | Kingdom could not increase through its own creative thought. Creation |
| Tx:7.2 | the Sonship, and you increase it. You have the power to add to the | Kingdom, but not to add to the Creator of the Kingdom. You claim this |
| Tx:7.2 | power to add to the Kingdom, but not to add to the Creator of the | Kingdom. You claim this power when you become vigilant only for God |
| Tx:7.2 | You claim this power when you become vigilant only for God and His | Kingdom. By accepting this power as yours, you have learned to be |
| Tx:7.4 | are His gifts, and so your gifts must be like His. Your gifts to the | Kingdom must be like His gifts to you. |
| Tx:7.5 | I gave only love to the | Kingdom because I believed that was what I was. What you believe you |
| Tx:7.5 | and beyond time, and you who are co-creators with Him extend His | Kingdom forever and beyond limit. Eternity is the indelible stamp of |
| Tx:7.6 | the Holy Spirit leads you that your joy may be complete, because the | Kingdom of God is whole. We have said that the last step in the |
| Tx:7.9 | see him this way, you are seeing him as if he were absent from the | Kingdom or separated from it, thus making the Kingdom itself obscure |
| Tx:7.9 | were absent from the Kingdom or separated from it, thus making the | Kingdom itself obscure to both of you. Sickness and separation are |
| Tx:7.9 | to both of you. Sickness and separation are not of God, but the | Kingdom is. If you obscure the Kingdom, you are perceiving what is |
| Tx:7.9 | separation are not of God, but the Kingdom is. If you obscure the | Kingdom, you are perceiving what is not of God. |
| Tx:7.10 | by sharing the Holy Spirit with him. This places you both within the | Kingdom and restores its wholeness in your minds. This parallels |
| Tx:7.10 | This is an immutable law of the mind in this world as well as in the | Kingdom. However, the content is different in this world, because the |
| Tx:7.10 | the thoughts it governs are very different from the thoughts in the | Kingdom. Laws must be adapted to circumstances if they are to |
| Tx:7.14 | Outside the | Kingdom, the law which prevails inside it is adapted to “what you |
| Tx:7.14 | project you believe.” This is its teaching form, since outside the | Kingdom teaching is mandatory, because learning is essential. This |
| Tx:7.14 | have projected onto others and therefore believe they are. In the | Kingdom there is no teaching or learning, because there is no belief. |
| Tx:7.14 | create like Him, follow it gladly, knowing that the increase of the | Kingdom depends on it, just as their own creation did. |
| Tx:7.16 | His Sons of truth. The extension of truth, which is the law of the | Kingdom, rests only on the knowledge of what truth is. This is your |
| Tx:7.18 | What can the perfect consistency of the | Kingdom mean to the confused? It is apparent that confusion |
| Tx:7.18 | the learner from appreciating it. There is no confusion in the | Kingdom, because there is only one meaning. This meaning comes from |
| Tx:7.18 | because nothing discordant ever enters. That is why it is the | Kingdom of God. It belongs to Him and is therefore like Him. That is |
| Tx:7.24 | maximizes all efforts and all results. By teaching the power of the | Kingdom of God Himself, He teaches you that all power is yours. Its |
| Tx:7.26 | God's meaning waits in the | Kingdom, because that is where He placed it. It does not wait in |
| Tx:7.26 | where He placed it. It does not wait in time. It merely rests in the | Kingdom, because it belongs there, as you do. How can you, who are |
| Tx:7.29 | To be in the | Kingdom is merely to focus your full attention on it. As long as you |
| Tx:7.29 | to be, but seeming and reality are hardly the same. You who are the | Kingdom are not concerned with seeming. Reality is yours, because you |
| Tx:7.29 | This is how having and being are ultimately reconciled, not in the | Kingdom, but in your minds. The altar there is the only reality. The |
| Tx:7.38 | Seek ye first the | Kingdom of Heaven, because that is where the laws of God operate |
| Tx:7.50 | it has increased. We have spoken often of the increase of the | Kingdom by your creations, which can only be created as you were. The |
| Tx:7.50 | be created as you were. The whole glory and perfect joy that is the | Kingdom lies in you to give. Do you not want to give it? |
| Tx:7.61 | offers you, you cannot be vigilant for anything but God and His | Kingdom. The only reason you find this difficult is because you think |
| Tx:7.64 | Your identification with the | Kingdom is totally beyond question, except by you when you are |
| Tx:7.67 | be extended. Your divided minds are blocking the extension of the | Kingdom, and its extension is your joy. If you do not extend the |
| Tx:7.67 | the Kingdom, and its extension is your joy. If you do not extend the | Kingdom, you are not thinking with your Creator and creating as He |
| Tx:7.78 | fearful if he believes that his brother is attacking him to tear the | Kingdom of Heaven from him. This is the ultimate basis for all of the |
| Tx:7.81 | are always experienced as sacrifices, but the gifts you offer to the | Kingdom are gifts to you. They will always be treasured by God, |
| Tx:7.81 | Sons who belong to Him. All power and glory are yours, because the | Kingdom is His. |
| Tx:7.82 | which you create and were created. It is the law which unifies the | Kingdom and keeps it in the Mind of God. To the ego, the law is |
| Tx:7.90 | of separation and affirming your true identification with the whole | Kingdom as literally part of you. This identification is as beyond |
| Tx:7.94 | The | Kingdom is forever extending, because it is in the Mind of God. You |
| Tx:7.94 | you do not know your own self-fullness. Exclude any part of the | Kingdom from yourself, and you are not whole. A split mind cannot |
| Tx:7.94 | heal it. This reawakens the wholeness in it and restores it to the | Kingdom because of its acceptance of wholeness. The full appreciation |
| Tx:7.94 | and extension inevitable. That is why there is perfect peace in the | Kingdom. Every Soul is fulfilling its function, and only complete |
| Tx:7.97 | have included the whole. You have said that when you write of the | Kingdom and your creations which belong in it, you are describing |
| Tx:7.97 | failure to acknowledge the whole result of the ego's premises. The | Kingdom is the result of premises, just as this world is. |
| Tx:7.100 | share what He knows. Deny His Will as yours, and you are denying His | Kingdom and yours. The Holy Spirit will direct you only so as to |
| Tx:7.107 | joy is His. This is His Will for everyone, because He speaks for the | Kingdom of God which is joy. Following Him is therefore the easiest |
| Tx:7.109 | Consider the | kingdom you have made and judge its worth fairly. Is it worthy to be |
| Tx:7.110 | call upon you again to remember that I have chosen you to teach the | Kingdom to the Kingdom. There are no exceptions to this lesson, |
| Tx:7.110 | again to remember that I have chosen you to teach the Kingdom to the | Kingdom. There are no exceptions to this lesson, because the lack of |
| Tx:7.110 | the lack of exceptions is the lesson. Every Son who returns to the | Kingdom with this lesson in his heart has healed the Sonship and |
| Tx:7.113 | shared. Without your Father, you will not know your fatherhood. The | Kingdom of God includes all His Sons and their children, who are like |
| Tx:8.1 | is the condition of knowledge, because it is the condition of the | Kingdom. |
| Tx:8.4 | yourself from it. This is a condition which is so alien to the | Kingdom that you cannot understand the state which prevails within |
| Tx:8.13 | and this is joy. Deny yourself this and you are denying God His | Kingdom because He created you for this. When we said, “All power and |
| Tx:8.13 | for this. When we said, “All power and glory are yours because the | Kingdom is His,” this is what we meant. |
| Tx:8.15 | all power and glory can the Holy Spirit appeal to restore God's | Kingdom? His appeal, then, is merely to what the Kingdom is and for |
| Tx:8.15 | to restore God's Kingdom? His appeal, then, is merely to what the | Kingdom is and for its own acknowledgment of what it is. When you |
| Tx:8.15 | yours is extended. Awakening runs easily and gladly through the | Kingdom in answer to the call of God. This is the natural response of |
| Tx:8.21 | it is your responsibility to yourself. Give him his place in the | Kingdom, and you will have yours. The Kingdom cannot be found alone, |
| Tx:8.21 | Give him his place in the Kingdom, and you will have yours. The | Kingdom cannot be found alone, and you who are the Kingdom cannot |
| Tx:8.21 | have yours. The Kingdom cannot be found alone, and you who are the | Kingdom cannot find yourselves alone. |
| Tx:8.32 | can choose to listen to my teaching. How else can it be, if God's | Kingdom is freedom? Freedom cannot be learned by tyranny of any kind, |
| Tx:8.42 | us all, and He will welcome us as I am welcoming you. Forget not the | Kingdom of God for anything the world has to offer. The world can add |
| Tx:8.43 | yourselves. Let us glorify Him whom the world denies, for over His | Kingdom, it has no power. No one created by God can find joy in |
| Tx:8.57 | are. To communicate with part of God Himself is to reach beyond the | Kingdom to its Creator through His Voice, which He has established as |
| Tx:9.57 | do not know them until you return to them. You cannot replace the | Kingdom, and you cannot replace yourself. God, Who knows your value, |
| Tx:9.70 | truth in this world is the perceptual counterpart of creating in the | Kingdom. God will do His part if you will do yours, and His return in |
| Tx:9.73 | your reality, you have made yourself vigilant against God and His | Kingdom. And it is this vigilance that makes you afraid to remember |
| Tx:9.79 | There are no idolaters in the | Kingdom, but there is great appreciation for every Soul which God |
| Tx:9.80 | Yet every Son of God has the power to deny illusions anywhere in the | Kingdom merely by denying them completely in himself. I can heal you |
| Tx:9.103 | Out of your gifts to Him, the | Kingdom will be restored to His Son. His Son removed himself from His |
| Tx:10.16 | there is but one will. Yet when you attack any part of God and His | Kingdom, your understanding is not perfect, and what you will is |
| Tx:10.24 | he knows not what he does, believing his will is not his own. The | Kingdom is his, and yet he wanders homelessly. At home in God, he is |
| Tx:10.58 | convinces you of what you want to perceive and of the reality of the | kingdom you have chosen for your vigilance. Everything you perceive |
| Tx:10.59 | above the ego and all its works and ascends to the Father and His | Kingdom. |
| Tx:10.83 | for what I promised you. Do you believe I would deceive you? The | Kingdom of Heaven is within you. Believe that the truth is in me, for |
| Tx:11.41 | it because you have sold everything else. Yet you cannot sell the | Kingdom of Heaven. Your inheritance can neither be bought nor sold. |
| Tx:11.42 | with your spirit. For Spirit is will, and will is the “price” of the | Kingdom. Your inheritance awaits only the recognition that you have |
| Tx:13.33 | loveliness and for the many gifts that you will let me offer to the | Kingdom in honor of its wholeness, which is of God. |
| Tx:13.34 | us alone can even think on it. Before the glorious radiance of the | Kingdom, guilt melts away and, transformed into kindness, will never |
| Tx:13.62 | learning here, as he also meets the conditions of knowledge in the | Kingdom. All this lies in the Holy Spirit's plan to free you from the |
| Tx:14.8 | The inheritance of the | Kingdom is the right of God's Son, given him in his creation. Do not |
| Tx:15.31 | the altar to holiness, where holiness abides in perfect peace. My | Kingdom is not of this world because it is in you. And you are of |
| Tx:16.27 | power and strength and purity, and love Him as His Father does. His | Kingdom has no limits and no end, and there is nothing in Him that is |
| Tx:16.79 | His help suffices, for His Messenger understands how to restore the | Kingdom to you and to place all your investment in salvation in your |
| Tx:18.49 | you must ultimately learn, for it is [in that] realization that the | Kingdom of Heaven is restored to you. For God created only this, and |
| Tx:18.49 | He did not depart from it nor leave it separate from Himself. The | Kingdom of Heaven is the dwelling-place of the Son of God, who left |
| Tx:18.72 | Heaven splintered from the whole, proclaiming that within it is your | kingdom, where God can enter not. |
| Tx:18.73 | Within this | kingdom the ego rules, and cruelly. And to defend this little speck |
| Tx:18.76 | nor would the whole be whole without it. It is not a separate | kingdom, ruled by an idea of separation from the rest. Nor does a |

| Tx:18.77 | yet who would still die to defend it? This little self is not your | kingdom. Arched high above it and surrounding it with love is the |
| Tx:18.78 | only to preserve and keep complete what it would give. In your tiny | kingdom, you have so little! Should it not, then, be there that you |
| Tx:18.78 | and unproductive, scorched and joyless, which makes up your little | kingdom. And realize the life and joy which love would bring to it |
| Tx:18.79 | The Thought of God surrounds your little | kingdom, waiting at the barrier you built to come inside and shine |
| Tx:18.80 | yourself and see your little garden gently transformed into the | Kingdom of Heaven with all the love of its Creator shining upon it. |
| Tx:18.80 | is your invitation to love, to enter into your bleak and joyless | kingdom, and to transform it into a garden of peace and welcome. |
| Tx:18.84 | thinks it is the Son of God, whole and omnipotent, sole ruler of the | kingdom it set apart to tyrannize by madness into obedience and |
| Tx:18.85 | sight of Heaven. Let the Holy Spirit remove it from the withered | kingdom in which you set it off, surrounded by darkness, guarded by |
| Tx:18.86 | this done? It is extremely simple, being based on what this little | kingdom really is. The barren sands, the darkness and the |
| Tx:24.24 | upon yourself, to rule in madness and in loneliness your special | kingdom, apart from God, away from truth and from salvation. |
| Tx:26.62 | yourself. What God calls one will be forever one, not separate. His | Kingdom is united—thus it was created, and thus will it ever be. |
| Tx:30.31 | for and will reinforce the rule of your advisor in the world. Whose | kingdom is the world for you today? What kind of day will you decide |
| Tx:30.33 | God asks you do your will. He joins with you. He did not set His | Kingdom up alone. And Heaven itself but represents your will, where |

| Tx:3.69 | mean that the “something” has gone. It merely means that you do not | know where it is. Existence does not depend on your ability to |

| Tx:3.71 | say, “Will ye first the Kingdom of Heaven,” and you have said, “I | know what I am, and I will to accept my own inheritance.” |
| Tx:3.73 | To do so is to deceive yourself, and this will hurt you because you | know the strength of the mind. You also know that you cannot weaken |
| Tx:3.73 | will hurt you because you know the strength of the mind. You also | know that you cannot weaken it, any more than you can weaken God. The |
| Tx:3.78 | this denial. Look at your lives and see what the devil has made. But | know that this making will surely dissolve in the light of truth, |

| Tx:4.8 | irreconcilable because the Soul cannot perceive and the ego cannot | know. They are therefore not in communication and can never be in |
| Tx:4.15 | as you believe in it. You who made it cannot trust it because you | know it is not real. The only sane solution is not to try to change |
| Tx:4.15 | within easy reach of your Soul. When you are afraid, be still and | know that God is real and you are His beloved Son in whom He is well |
| Tx:4.15 | pleased. Do not let your ego dispute this because the ego cannot | know what is as far beyond its reach as you are. |
| Tx:4.16 | gave you a very lofty responsibility which you are not meeting. You | know this, and you are afraid. In fact, your egos have chosen to be |
| Tx:4.28 | of the ego.] When teaching is no longer necessary, you will merely | know God. Belief that there is another way is the loftiest idea of |
| Tx:4.29 | decide that you need precisely what would hurt you most. Whether you | know it now or not, however, you have willed to cooperate in a |
| Tx:4.35 | for this lapse, even though in reality it could not possibly | know anything about it. |
| Tx:4.57 | chosen wrongly, and this is so whenever you are not joyous, then | know this need not be. In every case you have thought wrongly about |
| Tx:4.59 | When you are sad, | know that this need not be. Depression always arises ultimately from |
| Tx:4.59 | a sense of being deprived of something you want and do not have. | Know you are deprived of nothing except by your own decisions, and |
| Tx:4.60 | When you are anxious, | know that all anxiety comes from the capriciousness of the ego and |
| Tx:4.61 | When you feel guilty, | know that the ego has indeed violated the laws of God, but you have |
| Tx:4.62 | mind for the temptations of the ego and do not be deceived by it. | Know it offers you nothing. When you have given up this voluntary |
| Tx:4.65 | ego's dark glass you need but say, “I will not look there because I | know these images are not true.” Then let the Holy One shine on you |
| Tx:4.68 | in miracles; you do. I have called, and you will answer. I | know that miracles are natural because they are expressions of love. |
| Tx:4.88 | it or punishing it. Remember that the ego and the Soul do not | know each other. The separated mind cannot maintain the separation |
| Tx:4.90 | only gift I want. I will bring it to God for you, knowing that to | know your brother is to know God. A little knowledge is an |
| Tx:4.90 | bring it to God for you, knowing that to know your brother is to | know God. A little knowledge is an all-encompassing thing. If you are |
| Tx:4.90 | to God for what He created. Through your gratitude, you can come to | know each other, and one moment of real recognition makes all men |
| Tx:4.90 | God, I can lead you back to your own creations, which you do not yet | know. What has been dissociated is still there. |
| Tx:4.100 | joy is not complete because yours is incomplete. And this He does | know. He knows it in His own Being and its experience of His Son's |
| Tx:4.101 | your kingdom for you, but He cannot share His joy with you until you | know it with your whole mind. Even revelation is not enough because |
| Tx:5.3 | want to bless them in return out of gratitude. You do not have to | know them individually or they you. The light is so strong that it |
| Tx:5.4 | Let me | know this brother as I know myself. |
| Tx:5.4 | Let me know this brother as I | know myself. |
| Tx:5.21 | the separation you did not need guidance. You knew as you will | know again, but as you do not know now. God does not guide because He |
| Tx:5.21 | need guidance. You knew as you will know again, but as you do not | know now. God does not guide because He can share only perfect |
| Tx:5.25 | he has lost sight of his Soul. He cannot lose it, but he can not | know it. It is therefore lost to him until he chooses right. The Holy |
| Tx:5.32 | The way to learn to | know your brother is by perceiving the Holy Spirit in him. We have |
| Tx:5.38 | light because He is in you who are light, but you yourselves do not | know this. It is therefore the task of the Holy Spirit to reinterpret |
| Tx:5.45 | and beyond guilt. They came from the Holy Spirit within you, and we | know what God creates is eternal. What fear has hidden still is part |
| Tx:5.55 | you do not want to keep him. You must learn to see him as he is and | know that he belongs to God as you do. How could you treat your |
| Tx:5.68 | was created by Him. Guilt feelings are always a sign that you do not | know this. They also show that you believe you can think apart from |
| Tx:5.73 | The mind does indeed | know its power, because the mind does indeed know God. Remember the |
| Tx:5.73 | The mind does indeed know its power, because the mind does indeed | know God. Remember the Kingdom always, and remember that you who are |
| Tx:5.83 | he lost his understanding because he was afraid and, as you | know all too well, fear is incompatible with good judgment. Fear |
| Tx:5.92 | the endless insane calls which you think are made upon you when you | know the Voice of God Himself is in you? God commended His Spirit to |
| Tx:6.9 | teach your own perfect immunity, which is the truth in you, and | know that it cannot be assailed. Do not protect it yourselves, or you |
| Tx:6.11 | voice, because it weakens them as teachers and as learners. Yet I | know that they cannot really betray themselves or me and that it is |
| Tx:6.16 | and His separated Sons. If you will listen to His Voice, you will | know that you cannot either hurt or be hurt and that many need your |
| Tx:6.16 | of every Son of God is necessary to enable the Sonship to | know its wholeness. Only this is knowledge. |
| Tx:6.24 | is not as God thinks, and you must think as He thinks if you are to | know Him again. |
| Tx:6.31 | in a way that parallels knowledge, you will ultimately meet it and | know it. The ego would prefer to believe that this meeting is |
| Tx:6.32 | God created you to create. You cannot extend His Kingdom until you | know of its wholeness. |
| Tx:6.39 | The word “knows” is correct here, even though the ego does not | know and is not concerned with being at all. |
| Tx:6.42 | The perfectly safe are wholly benign. They bless because they | know they are blessed. Without anxiety the mind is wholly kind, and |
| Tx:6.43 | By learning it through projection, it becomes a part of what you | know, because you cannot teach what you have dissociated. |
| Tx:6.47 | until you fully understand one basic fact that the ego does not | know. The Holy Spirit does not speak first, but He always answers. |
| Tx:6.50 | confused you. Yet that was only because you were asleep and did not | know. When you awake, you will see the truth around you and in you, |
| Tx:6.57 | Like any good teacher, the Holy Spirit does | know more than you do now, but He teaches only to make you equal with |
| Tx:6.57 | a split mind, when He knows your mind only as whole? What God does | know is that His communication channels are not open to Him so that |
| Tx:6.57 | channels are not open to Him so that He cannot impart His joy and | know that His Children are wholly joyous. This is an ongoing process, |
| Tx:6.60 | fantasy and reality, and they are frightened, because they do not | know the difference. The Holy Spirit makes no distinction among |
| Tx:6.61 | When your body and your ego and your dreams are gone, you will | know that you will last forever. Many think this is accomplished |
| Tx:6.93 | Doubts about being must not enter your mind, or you cannot | know what you are with certainty. Certainty is of God for you. |
| Tx:7.6 | tell you something about this last step, although this one you must | know yourself, since by it you know what you are. This is your being. |
| Tx:7.6 | last step, although this one you must know yourself, since by it you | know what you are. This is your being. |
| Tx:7.8 | to increase. If you perceive it as not increasing, you do not | know what it is. You also do not know what created it or Who He is. |
| Tx:7.8 | it as not increasing, you do not know what it is. You also do not | know what created it or Who He is. God does not reveal this to you, |
| Tx:7.14 | There is only certainty. God and His Sons, in the surety of being, | know that what you project you are. That form of the law is not |
| Tx:7.26 | be teaching something else as well, even though the ego does not | know what it is. |
| Tx:7.33 | from His laws. It is their result, in a state of mind which does not | know Him. The state is unknown to Him and therefore does not exist, |
| Tx:7.33 | or better, unaware. [And because] they are unaware, they do not | know. |
| Tx:7.37 | gift which you both have and are. When you do not use it, you do not | know you have it. By not knowing this, you do not know what you are. |
| Tx:7.37 | use it, you do not know you have it. By not knowing this, you do not | know what you are. Healing, then, is a way of approaching knowledge |
| Tx:7.48 | can, or he would not perceive himself as sick. He therefore does not | know what his self is. |
| Tx:7.57 | continuance if you side with it by guaranteeing that you will not | know your own safety. The ego cannot afford to know anything. |
| Tx:7.57 | that you will not know your own safety. The ego cannot afford to | know anything. Knowledge is total, and the ego does not believe in |
| Tx:7.58 | knew itself. And if it recognized any part of the Sonship, it would | know itself. |
| Tx:7.62 | When you believe what God does not | know, your thought seems to contradict His, and this makes it appear |
| Tx:7.65 | God to you. Unless you perceive His creation truly, you cannot | know the Creator, since God and His creation are not separate. The |
| Tx:7.75 | are not extending the gift you both have and are, and so you do not | know your being. All confusion comes from not extending life, since |
| Tx:7.76 | peace and accept His gift for yourself and as yourself. You cannot | know your own perfection until you have honored all those who were |
| Tx:7.77 | patience can translate attack into blessing. Those who attack do not | know they are blessed. They attack because they believe they are |
| Tx:7.80 | it is everywhere. See His abundance in everyone, and you will | know that you are in Him with them. They are part of you, as you are |
| Tx:7.80 | understanding this as God Himself is lonely when His Sons do not | know Him. The peace of God is understanding this. There is only one |
| Tx:7.93 | Unless you create, you are unfulfilled; but God does not | know of unfulfillment, and therefore you must create. You may not |
| Tx:7.93 | know of unfulfillment, and therefore you must create. You may not | know your own creations, but this can no more interfere with their |
| Tx:7.94 | is forever extending, because it is in the Mind of God. You do not | know your joy, because you do not know your own self-fullness. |
| Tx:7.94 | is in the Mind of God. You do not know your joy, because you do not | know your own self-fullness. Exclude any part of the Kingdom from |
| Tx:7.97 | creations which belong in it, you are describing what you do not | know. That is true in a sense, but no more true than your failure to |
| Tx:7.101 | You no more recognize what is painful than you | know what is joyful and are in fact very apt to confuse the two. The |
| Tx:7.106 | Miracles are in accord with the Will of God Whose Will you do not | know, because you are confused about what you will. This means that |
| Tx:7.109 | and denies them nothing. Yet when they deny Him, they do not | know this, because they deny themselves everything. |
| Tx:7.111 | The Majesty of God is there for you to recognize and appreciate and | know. Perceiving the Majesty of God as your brother is to accept your |
| Tx:7.112 | You do not | know yourselves, because you do not know your Creator. You do not |
| Tx:7.112 | You do not know yourselves, because you do not | know your Creator. You do not know your creations, because you do not |
| Tx:7.112 | know yourselves, because you do not know your Creator. You do not | know your creations, because you do not know your brothers, who |
| Tx:7.112 | your Creator. You do not know your creations, because you do not | know your brothers, who created them with you. We said before that |
| Tx:7.112 | of God, Who created you. You cannot deny part of truth. You do not | know your creations, because you do not know their creator. You do |
| Tx:7.112 | part of truth. You do not know your creations, because you do not | know their creator. You do not know yourselves, because you do not |
| Tx:7.112 | your creations, because you do not know their creator. You do not | know yourselves, because you do not know yours. |
| Tx:7.112 | know their creator. You do not know yourselves, because you do not | know yours. |
| Tx:7.113 | your reality any more than you can establish God's. But you can | know both. Being is known by sharing. Because God shared His Being |
| Tx:7.113 | is known by sharing. Because God shared His Being with you, you can | know Him. But you must also know all He created to know what they |
| Tx:7.113 | God shared His Being with you, you can know Him. But you must also | know all He created to know what they have shared. Without your |
| Tx:7.113 | with you, you can know Him. But you must also know all He created to | know what they have shared. Without your Father, you will not know |
| Tx:7.113 | to know what they have shared. Without your Father, you will not | know your fatherhood. The Kingdom of God includes all His Sons and |
| Tx:7.113 | their children, who are like the Sons as they are like the Father. | Know then the Sons of God, and you will know all creation. |
| Tx:7.113 | as they are like the Father. Know then the Sons of God, and you will | know all creation. |

| Tx:8.8 | of the curriculum, you must learn it of Him. The ego does not | know what it is trying to teach. It is trying to teach you what you |
| Tx:8.18 | upon it. Let the Holy Spirit teach you how to do this, for you will | know what it means of God Himself. |
| Tx:8.20 | The goal of the curriculum, regardless of the teacher you choose, is | know thyself. There is nothing else to learn. Everyone is looking for |
| Tx:8.20 | yours. The ego tries to find them in yourself, because it does not | know where to look. The Holy Spirit teaches you that if you look only |
| Tx:8.22 | to the ego. Its purpose is to defeat its own goal. The ego does not | know this, because it does not know anything. But you can know this, |
| Tx:8.22 | defeat its own goal. The ego does not know this, because it does not | know anything. But you can know this, and you will know it if you are |

| Tx:8.22 | it does not know anything. But you can know this, and you will | know it if you are willing to look at what the ego has made of you. |
| Tx:8.30 | this will not help you unless you collaborate by believing that I | know what to do. Only then will your mind choose to follow me. |
| Tx:8.37 | Father. If your perfection is in Him and only in Him, how can you | know it without recognizing Him? The recognition of God is the |
| Tx:8.39 | and I can share [my perfect confidence in His promise, because I | know He gave me] this confidence for both of us and all of us. I |
| Tx:8.39 | united wills, because nothing can prevail against God's. Would you | know the Will of God for you? Ask it of me who knows it for you, and |
| Tx:8.42 | to the Father if they behold it. You cannot behold the world and | know God. Only one is true. |
| Tx:8.44 | squandered everything for nothing of any value, although he did not | know its worthlessness at the time. He was ashamed to return to his |
| Tx:8.47 | this, because you do not understand Him. No one who does not | know his function can understand it, and no one can know his function |
| Tx:8.47 | one who does not know his function can understand it, and no one can | know his function unless he knows who he is. Creation is the Will of |
| Tx:8.49 | no question but one you should ever ask of yourself: “Do I want to | know my Father's Will for me?” He will not hide it. He has revealed |
| Tx:8.70 | This is as true of knowledge as it is of perception. The reason to | know in part is to know entirely is because of the fundamental |
| Tx:8.70 | knowledge as it is of perception. The reason to know in part is to | know entirely is because of the fundamental difference between |

| Tx:8.77 | of your insistence on asking the guidance of a teacher who does not | know the answer. The ego is incapable of knowing how you feel. When |
| Tx:8.77 | of knowing how you feel. When we said that the ego does not | know anything, we said the one thing about the ego that is wholly |
| Tx:8.80 | because He knows what the answer to everything is. The ego does not | know what a real question is, although it asks an endless number. Yet |

| Tx:8.92 | most, is particularly inappropriate in the minds of those who do not | know what truth is. All that this kind of association means is that |
| Tx:8.92 | is completely impossible to escape from it without a Guide who does | know what your reality is. The purpose of this Guide is merely to |
| Tx:8.102 | interfering with the laws of seeing. If you deny love, you will not | know it because your cooperation is the law of its being. You cannot |
| Tx:8.105 | reality, because only this is real. You cannot distort reality and | know what it is. And if you do distort reality, you will experience |
| Tx:8.110 | If you would | know your prayers are answered, never doubt a Son of God. Do not |
| Tx:8.110 | him, for your faith in him is your faith in yourself. If you would | know God and His Answer, believe in me whose faith in you cannot be |
| Tx:8.110 | Listening to truth is the only way you can hear it now and finally | know it. |
| Tx:8.111 | you except truth? But are you listening to it? Your brother may not | know who he is, but there is a light in his mind which does know. |
| Tx:8.111 | may not know who he is, but there is a light in his mind which does | know. This light can shine into yours, making his words true and |
| Tx:8.112 | are not alone. And His answer is only for what you are. You will not | know the trust I have in you unless you extend it. You will not trust |
| Tx:8.117 | not to get. It is impossible not to have, but it is possible not to | know you have. The recognition of having is the willingness for |
| Tx:8.119 | Because I will to | know myself, I see you as God's Son and my brother. |
| Tx:9.7 | only be the arrogance of the ego. Correction is of God, Who does not | know of arrogance. The Holy Spirit forgives everything, because God |
| Tx:9.8 | you do not need, but which you have made. Give it to Him! You do not | know how to use it. He will teach you how to see yourself without |
| Tx:9.9 | holds. Accept as true only what your brother is if you would | know yourself. Perceive what he is not, and you cannot know what you |
| Tx:9.9 | if you would know yourself. Perceive what he is not, and you cannot | know what you are, because you see him falsely. Remember always that |
| Tx:9.10 | Atonement, but the plan of the Atonement is beyond you. You do not | know how to overlook errors, or you would not make them. It would |
| Tx:9.15 | plan of salvation in recognition of the fact that you do not | know what it is. His work is not your function, and unless you accept |
| Tx:9.17 | It is not true that you do not | know the guide is insane. You know it because I know it, and you have |
| Tx:9.17 | It is not true that you do not know the guide is insane. You | know it because I know it, and you have judged it by the same |
| Tx:9.17 | true that you do not know the guide is insane. You know it because I | know it, and you have judged it by the same standard as I have. The |
| Tx:9.18 | that you have been wrong, but this was only because you did not | know who you were. Had you remembered, you could no more have been |
| Tx:9.21 | searches fantasies for truth must be unhealed, because he does not | know where to look for truth and therefore does not have the answer |
| Tx:9.25 | Seeking to get something for himself, the unhealed healer does not | know how to give and consequently cannot share. He cannot correct |
| Tx:9.25 | it is up to him to teach the patient what is real, but he does not | know it himself. What, then, should happen? When God said, “Let there |
| Tx:9.30 | By their fruits ye shall | know them and they shall know themselves. |
| Tx:9.30 | By their fruits ye shall know them and they shall | know themselves. |
| Tx:9.33 | is more than they, but they are not less than He is. Would you | know what this means? If what you do to my brother you do to me, and |
| Tx:9.34 | cannot learn of your wholeness until you see it everywhere. You can | know yourself only as God knows His Son, for knowledge is shared with |
| Tx:9.34 | for knowledge is shared with God. When you awake in Him you will | know your magnitude by accepting His limitlessness as yours, but |
| Tx:9.37 | to you, however, until you remember God's open arms and finally | know His open mind. Like Him, you are “always,” in His Mind and with |
| Tx:9.37 | your creations, because he created them with you. You will never | know that you are co-creator with God until you learn that your |
| Tx:9.44 | We said before that the ego does not | know what a real question is. Lack of knowledge of any kind is always |
| Tx:9.44 | of knowledge of any kind is always associated with unwillingness to | know and produces a total lack of knowledge simply because knowledge |
| Tx:9.50 | The ego does not | know the difference between grandeur and grandiosity, because it does |
| Tx:9.50 | the difference between grandeur and grandiosity, because it does not | know the difference between miracle impulses and ego-alien beliefs of |
| Tx:9.57 | and God Himself keeps your extensions safe within it. Yet you do not | know them until you return to them. You cannot replace the Kingdom, |
| Tx:9.58 | the question of your being, so that you can cease to question it and | know it for what it is. |
| Tx:9.61 | of Himself. And what He knows can be known because He does not | know only for Himself. He created you for Himself, but He gave you |
| Tx:9.64 | The reason you do not | know your creations is simply that you would decide against them as |
| Tx:9.64 | of God protect it by His Love. Any part of your mind that does not | know this has banished itself from knowledge because it has not met |
| Tx:9.65 | capable of awakening to reality. Is it your will to do so? You | know from your own experience that what you see in dreams you think |
| Tx:9.65 | is real as long as you are asleep. Yet the instant you waken, you | know that everything that seemed to happen did not happen at all. You |
| Tx:9.66 | yet that it once was so. And it is in this remembering that you will | know it can be so again. What is possible has not yet been |
| Tx:9.66 | once been is so now if it is eternal. When you remember, you will | know what you remember is eternal and therefore is now. |
| Tx:9.68 | Unless you | know something, you cannot dissociate it. Knowledge therefore |
| Tx:9.69 | that you are part of Him when you are willing to remember Him and | know your own reality again. Let nothing in this world delay your |
| Tx:9.77 | of creation, taught by sick minds which are too divided to | know that creation shares power and never usurps it. Sickness is |
| Tx:9.79 | that each one is part of Him. God's Son knows no idols, but he does | know his Father. Health in this world is the counterpart of value in |
| Tx:9.80 | it is because he is not asking for peace and therefore does not | know he has it. The acceptance of peace is the denial of illusion, |
| Tx:9.80 | by denying them completely in himself. I can heal you because I | know you. I know your value for you, and it is this value that makes |
| Tx:9.80 | them completely in himself. I can heal you because I know you. I | know your value for you, and it is this value that makes you whole. A |
| Tx:9.80 | that makes you whole. A whole mind is not idolatrous and does not | know of conflicting laws. I will heal you merely because I have only |
| Tx:9.86 | but its acceptance depends on your willingness to have it. To | know reality must involve the willingness to judge unreality for what |
| Tx:9.93 | you have foresworn God. Men are afraid of blasphemy, but they do not | know what it means. They do not realize that to deny God is to deny |
| Tx:9.95 | not God-destructive. It means that you are willing not to | know yourself in order to be sick. This is the offering which your |
| Tx:9.98 | Your denial of Him therefore means that you love Him and that you | know He loves you. Remember that what you deny, you must have known. |
| Tx:9.100 | is the acknowledgment of Him. When you acknowledge Him, you will | know that He has never ceased to acknowledge you and that in His |
| Tx:9.102 | it so. Yet He would not interfere with you, because He would not | know His Son if he were not free. To interfere with you would be to |
| Tx:9.102 | of His Son's creation, fixed forever in the Mind of God. To | know that is sanity. To deny it is insanity. God gave Himself to you |
| Tx:10.8 | on His creation nor upon those who create like Him. You do not | know this simply because you have tried to limit what He created, and |
| Tx:10.8 | so you believe that all creation is limited. How, then, could you | know your creations, having denied infinity? The laws of the universe |
| Tx:10.11 | one gift is Himself. How can you give except like Him if you would | know His gift to you? Give, then, without limit and without end to |
| Tx:10.12 | Yet what you will you do not | know. This is not strange when you realize that to deny is to “not |
| Tx:10.12 | know. This is not strange when you realize that to deny is to “not | know.” God's Will is that you are His Son. By denying this, you |
| Tx:10.12 | Son. By denying this, you denied your own will and therefore do not | know what it is. The reason you must ask what God's Will is in |
| Tx:10.12 | Will is in everything is merely because it is yours. You do not | know what it is, but the Holy Spirit remembers it for you. Ask Him, |
| Tx:10.12 | will tell you yours. It cannot be too often repeated that you do not | know it. Whenever what the Holy Spirit tells you appears to be |
| Tx:10.14 | otherwise His Will would not have been extended. You are afraid to | know God's Will because you believe it is not yours. This belief is |
| Tx:10.14 | arises here because this is the belief that makes you want not to | know. Believing this, you hide in darkness, denying that the light is |
| Tx:10.15 | He gives can contradict Him. You who share His Life must share it to | know it, for sharing is knowing. Blessed are you who learn that to |
| Tx:10.15 | Blessed are you who learn that to hear the Will of your Father is to | know your own. For it is your will to be like Him, Whose Will it is |
| Tx:10.16 | yourself to Him because, in your perfect understanding of Him, you | know there is but one will. Yet when you attack any part of God and |
| Tx:10.18 | knows not what he does. Having forgotten his will, he does not | know what he wants. |
| Tx:10.21 | You will never rest until you | know your function and fulfill it, for only in this can your will and |
| Tx:10.22 | depends on welcoming reality, and of your guests, only He is real. | Know, then, who abides with you merely by recognizing what is there |
| Tx:10.23 | yourself. Your Comforter will rest you, but you cannot. You do not | know how, for if you did you could never have grown weary. Unless you |
| Tx:10.25 | said, “God's Will is mine,” you will see such beauty that you will | know it is not of you. Out of your joy you will create beauty in His |
| Tx:10.29 | waiting for you. But be holy in the Presence of God, or you will not | know that you are there. For what is unlike God cannot enter His Mind |
| Tx:10.29 | belong to Him. And your minds must be as pure as His if you would | know what belongs to you. Guard carefully His temple, for He Himself |
| Tx:10.30 | you are whole, and no part of the Son can be excluded if he would | know the Wholeness of his Father. In your mind, you can accept the |
| Tx:10.32 | Could you try to make God homeless and | know that you are at home? Can the Son deny the Father without |
| Tx:10.35 | must be undone, not re-allocated. Lay it to yourself and you cannot | know yourself, for only the ego blames at all. Self-blame is |
| Tx:10.38 | the Son must share what belongs to Him, for otherwise he will not | know the Father or the Son. Peace be unto you who rest in God and in |
| Tx:10.46 | certain of its purpose. You are confused because you do not | know yours. |
| Tx:10.51 | that to accomplish its goal is happiness. But it is given you to | know that God's function is yours and happiness cannot be found apart |
| Tx:10.52 | insane could believe that love can be gained by attack. But the sane | know that only attack could produce fear from which the love of God |
| Tx:10.67 | and unless you give all that you have received, you will not | know that your Redeemer liveth and that you have awakened with Him. |
| Tx:10.72 | you have not met its conditions, and until you do you will not | know that it is yours already. You have made many ideas which you |
| Tx:10.72 | perceive it. Truth is not absent here, but it is obscure. You do not | know the difference between what you have made and what God created, |
| Tx:10.72 | between what you have made and what God created, and so you do not | know the difference between what you have made and what you have |
| Tx:10.73 | that you can perceive the real world is to believe that you can | know yourself. You can know God because it is His Will to be known. |
| Tx:10.73 | the real world is to believe that you can know yourself. You can | know God because it is His Will to be known. The real world is all |
| Tx:10.75 | He will restore what you have thrown away. As long as you think you | know its meaning, you will see no need to ask it of Him. |
| Tx:10.76 | You do not | know the meaning of anything you perceive. Not one thought you hold |
| Tx:10.83 | of Heaven is within you. Believe that the truth is in me, for I | know that it is in you. God's Sons have nothing which they do not |
| Tx:10.89 | brothers or your Father or yourself which frightens you. You do not | know what they are, and so you perceive them as ghosts and monsters |
| Tx:11.16 | wants is to offer it unto yourself, for your Father wills you to | know your brother as yourself. Answer his call for love and yours is |
| Tx:11.17 | easy to help an uncertain child, for he recognizes that he does not | know what his perceptions mean. Yet you believe that you do know. |
| Tx:11.17 | does not know what his perceptions mean. Yet you believe that you do | know. Little children, you are hiding your heads under the covers of |
| Tx:11.20 | and I will walk with you as our Father walked with me. Did you not | know that I walked with Him in peace? And does not that mean that |
| Tx:11.22 | choose to banish fear will succeed. The Lord is with you, but you | know it not. Yet your Redeemer liveth and abideth in you in the peace |
| Tx:11.23 | everything you do not want. He knows what to do with it. You do not | know how to use what He knows. Whatever is revealed to Him that is |
| Tx:11.40 | at home in this world. And you will search for your home whether you | know where it is or not. If you believe it is outside yourself, the |
| Tx:11.40 | be futile, for you will be seeking it where it is not. You do not | know how to look within yourself, for you do not believe your home is |
| Tx:11.48 | You do not | know the meaning of love, and that is your handicap. Do not attempt |
| Tx:11.48 | who have failed to learn what learning aids are for? They do not | know. For if they could interpret the aids correctly, they would have |
| Tx:11.53 | awareness of it. You cannot perceive your Soul, but you will not | know it while you perceive anything else as more valuable. |
| Tx:11.54 | nothing but your Soul as you. He is perfectly aware that you do not | know yourselves and perfectly aware of how to teach you what you are. |
| Tx:11.62 | You cannot see the invisible. Yet if you see its effects, you | know it must be there. By perceiving what it does, you recognize its |
| Tx:11.63 | His results, you will understand where He must be and finally | know what He is. |
| Tx:11.77 | and kept him far away from your destructive thoughts, but you | know neither the Father nor the Son because of them. You attack the |
| Tx:11.80 | in your seeming distress. You are waiting only for Him and do not | know it. Yet His memory shines in your minds and cannot be |
| Tx:11.89 | is to make themselves unnecessary by teaching their pupils all they | know. The Holy Spirit wills only this, for sharing the Father's love |
| Tx:11.94 | of unity. You can condemn only yourself, and by so doing, you cannot | know that you are God's Son. You have denied the condition of his |
| Tx:12.3 | the crucifixion of God's Son can ultimately satisfy it. It does not | know who the Son of God is because it is blind. Yet let it perceive |
| Tx:12.25 | could heal and be healed if you did question it. And even though you | know not Heaven, might it not be more desirable than death? You have |
| Tx:12.39 | is not true, but His offering to you has never changed. You who | know not what you do can learn what insanity is and look beyond it. |
| Tx:12.54 | Children of light, you | know not that the light is in you. Yet you will find it through its |
| Tx:12.63 | is there but is not recognized. Christ is still there, although you | know Him not. His Being does not depend upon your recognition. He |
| Tx:12.69 | name. Therefore ask not of yourselves what you need, for you do not | know and your advice unto yourself will hurt you. For what you think |
| Tx:13.5 | aspect of the whole. Though every aspect is the whole, you cannot | know this until you see that every aspect is the same, perceived in |
| Tx:13.9 | you created in His name. They need no healing, nor do you when you | know them. |
| Tx:13.10 | are lifted up to Heaven and to Him. They witness to what you do not | know, and as they reach the gates of Heaven, God will open them. For |
| Tx:13.22 | they suffer, they will not look within and let it go. They cannot | know they love and cannot understand what loving is. Their main |
| Tx:13.26 | and teach as He does, and through Him. Yet what He knows, you do not | know, though it is yours. |
| Tx:13.37 | It can merely be appreciated or not. To value it partially is not to | know its value. In Heaven is everything God valued and nothing else. |
| Tx:13.44 | will remain unchanged throughout eternity. You do not have to | know that Heaven is yours to make it so. It is so. Yet the Will of |
| Tx:13.44 | so. It is so. Yet the Will of God must be accepted as your will to | know it. |
| Tx:13.47 | Yes, you are blessed indeed. Yet in this world, you do not | know it. But you have the means for learning it and seeing it quite |
| Tx:13.48 | If you are blessed and do not | know it, you need to learn it must be so. The knowledge is not |
| Tx:13.49 | How could you learn what has been done for you, but which you do not | know, unless you do what you would have to do if it had been done |
| Tx:13.49 | for this if you will realize that to deny is the decision not to | know. The logic of the world must therefore lead to nothing, for its |
| Tx:13.76 | plan which God has set for his Atonement, relinquishing his own. You | know not of salvation, for you do not understand it. Make no |
| Tx:13.78 | wills for you is your will. Without His guidance, you will think you | know alone and will decide against your peace as surely as you made |
| Tx:13.80 | would you struggle so frantically to anticipate all that you cannot | know when all knowledge lies behind every decision which the Holy |
| Tx:13.81 | for deciding what can bring only good to everyone? Would you | know this? |
| Tx:13.84 | He leadeth me and knows the way, which I | know not. Yet He will never keep from me what He would have me learn. |
| Tx:13.87 | separate from Him. You can feel His Presence next to you but cannot | know that you are one with Him. This need not be taught. Learning |
| Tx:13.91 | decide against deciding what you want in recognition that you do not | know. How, then, can you decide what you should do? Leave all |
| Tx:14.1 | Unless you are guiltless, you cannot | know God, Whose Will is that you know Him. Therefore, you must be |
| Tx:14.1 | Unless you are guiltless, you cannot know God, Whose Will is that you | know Him. Therefore, you must be guiltless. Yet if you do not accept |
| Tx:14.2 | You cannot even give a blessing in perfect gentleness. Would you | know of One Who gives forever and Who knows of nothing except giving? |
| Tx:14.3 | live in the light of the blessing of their Father because they | know that they are sinless. The Atonement was established as the |
| Tx:14.3 | you how to remove the blocks that stand between you and what you | know. His memory is yours. If you remember what you have made, you |
| Tx:14.6 | His plan for your awaking is as perfect as yours is fallible. You | know not what you do, but He Who knows is with you. His gentleness is |
| Tx:14.13 | me. Our power comes not of us but of our Father. In guiltlessness we | know Him, as He knows us guiltless. I stand within the circle, |
| Tx:14.22 | You | know not what you say, and so you know not what is said to you. Yet |
| Tx:14.22 | You know not what you say, and so you | know not what is said to you. Yet your Interpreter perceives the |
| Tx:14.25 | your insane system of belief, the truth lies hidden. Yet you cannot | know this, for by hiding truth in fear, you see no reason to believe |
| Tx:14.26 | It is not possible to convince the unknowing that they | know. From their point of view, it is not true. Yet it is true |
| Tx:14.34 | You | know not God because you know not this. And yet you do know God and |
| Tx:14.34 | You know not God because you | know not this. And yet you do know God and also this. All this is |
| Tx:14.34 | You know not God because you know not this. And yet you do | know God and also this. All this is safe within you, where the Holy |
| Tx:14.53 | something of the dynamics of the mind, let me assure you that you | know nothing of it at all. For of yourselves you could not know of |
| Tx:14.53 | that you know nothing of it at all. For of yourselves you could not | know of it. The study of the ego is not the study of the mind. In |
| Tx:14.58 | Yet the essential thing is learning that you do not | know. Knowledge is power, and all power is of God. You who have tried |
| Tx:14.58 | yourselves has made your power more and more obscure to you. You | know not what it is nor where. You have made a semblance of power and |
| Tx:14.64 | different from everything you have taught yourselves. How would you | know? Your part is very simple. You need only recognize that |
| Tx:14.65 | I do not | know what anything, including this, means. And so I do not know how |
| Tx:14.65 | I do not know what anything, including this, means. And so I do not | know how to respond to it. And I will not use my own past learning as |
| Tx:14.66 | By this refusal to attempt to teach yourself what you do not | know, the Guide Whom God has given you will speak to you. He will |
| Tx:14.72 | Those who remember always that they | know nothing, but who have become willing to learn everything, will |
| Tx:14.72 | destroyed their motivation for learning by thinking they already | know. Think not you understand anything until you pass the test of |
| Tx:14.73 | Only those who see they cannot | know unless the effects of understanding are with them can really |
| Tx:14.73 | it must be peace they want and nothing else. Whenever you think you | know, peace will depart from you because you have abandoned the |
| Tx:14.73 | abandoned the Teacher of Peace. Whenever you fully realize that you | know not, peace will return, for you will have invited Him to do so |
| Tx:14.75 | they both arise, is yours as surely as it is His. You think you | know Him not only because, alone, it is impossible to know Him. Yet |
| Tx:14.75 | You think you know Him not only because, alone, it is impossible to | know Him. Yet see the mighty works that He will do through you, and |
| Tx:15.19 | whether they support the ego or the Holy Spirit in you. And you will | know which you have chosen by their reactions. A Son of God who has |
| Tx:15.30 | Prince of Peace, born in you in honor of Him Whose host you are. You | know not what love means because you have sought to purchase it with |
| Tx:15.32 | you will make no more gifts to offer to yourselves, for you will | know you are complete, in need of nothing, and unable to accept |
| Tx:15.38 | there. Use the holy instant only to recognize that you alone cannot | know where it is and can only deceive yourself. |
| Tx:15.45 | to judge because it would be quite apparent to you that you do not | know what anything means. You are afraid of this because you believe |
| Tx:15.63 | something else together, the language of communication, which you | know perfectly, you will not remember. |
| Tx:15.69 | will offer them gladly to Him. What He can make of them, you do not | know, but you will become willing to find out if you are willing, |
| Tx:15.84 | you have made it. In Him alone lies the awareness of what God cannot | know and what you do not understand. It is His holy function to |
| Tx:15.92 | the season when you would celebrate my birth into the world. Yet you | know not how to do it. Let the Holy Spirit teach you, and let me |
| Tx:15.111 | I give you to the Holy Spirit as part of myself. I | know that you will be released, unless I want to use you to imprison |
| Tx:16.2 | empathizes to weaken, and to weaken is always to attack. You do not | know what empathizing means. Yet of this you may be sure—if you |
| Tx:16.3 | will neither to hurt it nor to heal it in your own way. You do not | know what healing is. All you have learned of empathy is from the |
| Tx:16.5 | this sense only—to recognize and accept the fact that you do not | know is to recognize and accept the fact that He does know. You are |
| Tx:16.5 | you do not know is to recognize and accept the fact that He does | know. You are not sure that He will do His part because you have |
| Tx:16.5 | part because you have never yet done yours completely. You will not | know how to respond to what you do not understand. Be tempted not in |
| Tx:16.6 | of weakness is not what you would offer to a brother. And yet you | know no triumph but this. This is not knowledge, and the form of |
| Tx:16.16 | you fear, that to acknowledge Him is to deny all that you think you | know. But it was never true. What gain is there to you in clinging to |
| Tx:16.22 | not learned how to be free. We once said, “By their fruits ye shall | know them, and they shall know themselves.” For it is certain that |
| Tx:16.22 | We once said, “By their fruits ye shall know them, and they shall | know themselves.” For it is certain that you judge yourself according |
| Tx:16.23 | you taught came from yourself. And yet, this Self you clearly do not | know and do not recognize It even though It functions. What functions |
| Tx:16.24 | This is a course in how to | know yourself. You have taught what you are but have not let what you |
| Tx:16.25 | to replace them. They are quite real as part of the Self you do not | know. And they communicate to you through the Holy Spirit, and their |
| Tx:16.30 | for freedom lies in looking at it. It would be impossible not to | know the meaning of love except for this. For the special love |
| Tx:16.57 | meaning. And unless love's meaning is restored to you, you cannot | know yourself, who shares its meaning. Separation is only the |
| Tx:16.57 | who shares its meaning. Separation is only the decision not to | know yourself. Its whole thought system is a carefully contrived |
| Tx:17.42 | to yours, you will experience again the meaning of relationship and | know it to be true. Let us ascend in peace together to the Father by |
| Tx:17.58 | reason for this disorganized approach is evident. The ego does not | know what it wants to come of it. It is aware of what it does not |
| Tx:18.25 | advance because your goal is the advance from fear to truth. You | know this. The goal which you accepted is the goal of knowledge, for |
| Tx:18.26 | this way which you have chosen, fear would be impossible. You do not | know because the journey into darkness has been long and cruel, and |
| Tx:18.51 | it is attacked, to hold the separation in the mind and let it not | know its identity. Mind cannot attack, but it can make fantasies and |
| Tx:18.71 | it was made to limit you. Can you who see yourselves within a body | know yourself as an idea? Everything you recognize you identify with |
| Tx:18.72 | The body cannot | know. And while you limit your awareness to its tiny senses, you will |
| Tx:18.82 | will not be able to give love welcome separately. You could no more | know God alone than He knows you without your brother. But together |
| Tx:18.82 | But together you could no more be unaware of love than love could | know you not or fail to recognize itself in you. |
| Tx:18.83 | long to give you this. Receive it now of Him, for He would have you | know Him. Only a little wall of dust still stands between you. Blow |
| Tx:18.98 | for your only purpose will be creating. Yet this you cannot | know until every perception has been cleansed and purified and |
| Tx:19.45 | of the journey's end. For Heaven knows you well, as you | know Heaven. No illusions stand between you now. Look not upon the |
| Tx:19.79 | place of the ego's, you renounced death, exchanging it for life. We | know that an idea leaves not its source. And death is the result of |
| Tx:19.99 | and even when it is over, it seems to make no sense. How can you | know that it is over unless you realize its purpose is accomplished? |
| Tx:19.101 | who stands beside you still seems to be a stranger. You do not | know him, and your interpretation of him is very fearful. And you |
| Tx:19.103 | as His Friend. The “enemies” of Christ, the worshipers of sin, | know not Whom they attack. This is your brother, crucified by sin, |
| Tx:20.4 | me in, not knowing who I was. Yet for your gift of lilies you will | know. In your forgiveness of this stranger, alien to you and yet your |
| Tx:20.12 | to hear. You heard but knew not how to look nor where. And now you | know. In you the knowledge lies, ready to be unveiled and freed from |
| Tx:20.23 | “What am I?” He is the only thing in all the universe that does not | know. Yet it is he you asked, and it is to his answer that you would |
| Tx:20.25 | him beside you, you shall this day enter with him to Paradise and | know the peace of God. |
| Tx:20.27 | Share, then, this faith with me and | know that it is justified. There is no fear in perfect love because |
| Tx:20.32 | is appointed separately, though they are all the same. Yet those who | know that they are all the same need not salvation. And each one |
| Tx:20.44 | is he, that the Creator of the universe should offer it to him and | know it rests in safety? He looks upon himself not as his Father |
| Tx:20.68 | Do you not want to | know your own Identity? Would you not happily exchange your doubts |
| Tx:21.6 | to their world by their adjustments to it. They think they | know their way about in it. They learned it, not through joyous |
| Tx:21.9 | you would lose the world you learned since then. And yet you | know that nothing in the world you learned is half so dear as this. |
| Tx:21.11 | This is the vision of the Son of God, whom you | know well. Here is the sight of him who knows his Father. Here is the |
| Tx:21.11 | you. Accept the vision which can show you this and not the body. You | know the ancient song and know it well. Nothing will ever be as dear |
| Tx:21.11 | can show you this and not the body. You know the ancient song and | know it well. Nothing will ever be as dear to you as is this ancient |
| Tx:21.55 | Oh yes, you | know this and more than this alone. Yet any part of knowledge |
| Tx:21.58 | you now the question must have come from something that you do not | know but must belong to you? Faith and belief, upheld by reason, |
| Tx:21.62 | if it be the will of the insane to listen to it. But the insane | know not their will. For they believe they see the body and let their |
| Tx:21.71 | and spite on him to make him one with them. Because they do not | know that they are one with him, they know not whom they hate. They |
| Tx:21.71 | with them. Because they do not know that they are one with him, they | know not whom they hate. They are indeed a sorry army, each one as |
| Tx:21.72 | Frantic and loud and strong the dark ones seem to be. Yet they | know not their enemy, except they hate him. In hatred they have come |
| Tx:22.21 | no one undertakes to do what holds no hope of ever being done. You | know what your Creator wills is possible, but what you made believes |
| Tx:22.32 | error attracts the ego. Meaning it does not recognize and does not | know if it is there or not. Everything which the body's eyes can see |
| Tx:22.55 | Light you bring shines now on you. The means of sinlessness can | know no fear because they carry only love with them. |
| Tx:22.61 | than to attack the great Creator of the universe, whose power you | know. |
| Tx:22.62 | If you were one with God and recognized this oneness, you would | know His power is yours. But you will not remember this while you |
| Tx:23.5 | and so is yours protected and kept in your awareness. For who can | know his glory and perceive the little and the weak about him? Who |
| Tx:23.13 | and far beyond their little reach. You will remember what you | know when you have learned you cannot be in conflict. One illusion |
| Tx:23.30 | death? Can you be sure your murderous attack is justified unless you | know what it is for? And here a final principle of chaos comes to the |
| Tx:23.40 | Yet any instant it is possible to have all this undone. How can you | know whether you chose the stairs to Heaven or the way to hell? Quite |
| Tx:23.43 | It would maintain you can attack a little, love a little, and | know the difference. Thus it would teach a little of the same can |
| Tx:23.45 | on its behalf cannot perceive it lies within them. How could they | know? Could they accept forgiveness side by side with the belief that |
| Tx:23.52 | battle from above. Even in forms you do not recognize, the signs you | know. There is a stab of pain, a twinge of guilt, and above all, a |
| Tx:23.52 | of pain, a twinge of guilt, and above all, a loss of peace. This you | know well. When it occurs, leave not your place on high but quickly |
| Tx:23.54 | Think what is given those who share their Father's purpose and who | know that it is theirs! They want for nothing. Sorrow of any kind is |
| Tx:23.54 | future always the same, eternally complete, and wholly shared. They | know it is impossible their happiness could ever suffer change of any |
| Tx:24.3 | Love is extension. To withhold the smallest gift is not to | know love's purpose. Love offers everything forever. Hold back but |
| Tx:24.15 | specialness against the truth of what you really are, how can you | know the truth? What answer that the Holy Spirit gives can reach you, |
| Tx:24.52 | by the world, by time, and all appearances, you will not | know the Father nor yourself. For you will use the world for what is |
| Tx:24.61 | do with it as your ally. For what you do through Christ it does not | know. To Him this judgment makes no sense at all, for only what His |
| Tx:24.64 | How can you | know your worth while specialness claims you instead? How can you |
| Tx:24.64 | your worth while specialness claims you instead? How can you fail to | know it is in his holiness? Seek not to make your specialness the |
| Tx:25.1 | whose only purpose is that He may be made manifest to those who | know Him not, that He may call to them to come to Him and see Him |
| Tx:25.3 | that the body says or does but makes Him manifest. To those who | know Him not, it carries Him in gentleness and love to heal their |
| Tx:25.63 | alone and recognize that what brings loss to no one you would not | know. This much is necessary to add to the idea no one can lose for |
| Tx:25.64 | faith remains to those who still believe in sin? What could they | know of Heaven and the justice of the saved? |
| Tx:25.66 | You who | know not of justice still can ask and learn the answer. Justice looks |
| Tx:25.66 | Can this be justice? God knows not of this. But justice does He | know and knows it well. For He is wholly fair to everyone. |
| Tx:25.78 | And you recognize that truth must be revealed to you because you | know not what it is. |
| Tx:26.33 | To you who still believe you live in time and | know not it is gone, the Holy Spirit still guides you through the |
| Tx:26.61 | then is God's Son made incomplete and not himself. [Nor will he | know himself nor recognize his will.] He has forsworn his Father and |
| Tx:26.67 | But it can make what always has been true be recognized by those who | know it not. And by this little gift of truth but let to be itself— |
| Tx:26.77 | much you wish he be condemned, God is in him. And never will you | know He is in you as well, while you attack His chosen home and |
| Tx:26.87 | except yourself, and you are enemy indeed to him because you do not | know him as yourself. What could be more unjust than that he be |
| Tx:26.91 | do I deny the Presence of the Father and the Son. And I would rather | know of Them than see injustice which Their Presence shines away. |
| Tx:27.12 | which a different view, another purpose, can be given it. You do not | know its purpose. You but gave illusions of a purpose to a thing you |
| Tx:27.22 | you. Identity and function are the same, and by your function do you | know yourself. And thus, if you confuse your function with the |

| Tx:27.56 | ears to hear, and let it tell you what it is it feels. It does not | know. It tells you but the names you gave it to use when you call |
| Tx:27.89 | you pay no heed at all. For they attest the thing you do not want to | know. They seem to keep it secret from you. Yet you need but learn |
| Tx:28.21 | this you cannot do. The dreamer of a dream is not awake but does not | know he sleeps. He sees illusions of himself as sick or well, |
| Tx:28.38 | And what is real and what is but illusion in yourself you do not | know and cannot tell apart. |
| Tx:28.49 | you are the dream you share. And fearing it, you will not want to | know your own Identity because you think that it is fearful. And you |
| Tx:28.50 | can perceive are meaningless. It cannot see nor hear. It does not | know what seeing is, what listening is for. It is as little able to |
| Tx:28.50 | It is as little able to perceive as it can judge or understand or | know. Its eyes are blind; its ears are deaf. It cannot think, and so |
| Tx:28.56 | The thing you hate and fear and loathe and want, the body does not | know. You send it forth to seek for separation and to be a separate |
| Tx:29.6 | to shrink more safely into fear. It will be sick because you do not | know what loving means. And so you must misuse each circumstance and |
| Tx:29.8 | Would you recognize that nothing stands between you? Would you | know there is no gap behind which you can hide? There is a shock that |

| Tx:29.30 | What is your brother for? You do not | know because your function is obscure to you. Do not ascribe a role |

| Tx:29.49 | be an endless circle of despair, you need but to decide you do not | know the purpose of the world. You give it goals it does not have, |
| Tx:29.52 | What is an idol? Do you think you | know? For idols are unrecognized as such and never seen for what they |
| Tx:29.52 | obscure, and they are feared and worshiped both because you do not | know what they are for and why they have been made. An idol is an |
| Tx:29.62 | which will hold the judgment off from resting on himself. Nor can he | know the Self he has condemned. Judge not, because you make yourself |
| Tx:29.66 | him, blessed. Except he judges this as does a child, who does not | know what hurts and what will heal. And bad things seem to happen, |
| Tx:30.2 | Decisions are continuous. You do not always | know when you are making them. But with a little practice with the |

| Tx:30.46 | this star invisible to earth. But those who seek for idols cannot | know this star is there. |

| Tx:30.78 | God's Son is perfect, or he cannot be God's Son. Nor will you | know him if you think he does not merit the escape from guilt in all |
| Tx:30.78 | consequence. There is no way to think of him but this if you would | know the truth about yourself: |
| Tx:31.10 | He calls. He will appear when you have answered Him, and you will | know in Him that God is Love. |
| Tx:31.12 | us remember not our own ideas of what the world is for. We do not | know. Let every image held of [anyone] be loosened from our minds and |
| Tx:31.12 | evil or of good that ever crossed your mind of anyone. Now do [you] | know him not. But you are free to learn of him and learn of him anew. |
| Tx:31.20 | everything we thought we heard; remembering how much we do not | know. This brother neither leads nor follows us but walks beside us |
| Tx:31.51 | now that you behave as if it were. Does he react for you? And did he | know exactly what would happen? Could he see your future and ordain |
| Tx:31.53 | not think it true is you. And what would happen to the world you | know if all its underpinnings were removed? Your concept of the world |
| Tx:31.56 | does the concept of the self appear to answer what it does not | know. |
| Tx:31.59 | will come a time when images have all gone by, and you will see you | know not what you are. It is to this unsealed and open mind that |

| Tx:31.60 | I do not know the thing I am and therefore do not | know what I am doing, where I am, or how to look upon the world or on |
| Tx:31.78 | hell, how could you be the savior of the Son of God? How would you | know his holiness while you see him apart from yours? For holiness is |
| Tx:31.80 | on only what the present holds. It cannot judge because it does not | know. And recognizing this, it merely asks, “What is the meaning of |
| W1:7.9 | to the cup, too, based on past experiences? How else would you | know whether or not this kind of cup will break if you drop it? What |
| W1:7.9 | or not this kind of cup will break if you drop it? What do you | know about this cup except what you learned in the past? You would |
| W1:24.2 | what they are. But in the presence of your conviction that you do | know what they are, you cannot learn. The idea for today is a step |
| W1:25.1 | Today's idea explains why nothing you see means anything. You do not | know what it is for. Therefore it is meaningless to you. Everything |
| W1:25.3 | them, therefore, you have no goals at all. And thus you do not | know what anything is for. |
| W1:25.7 | I do not | know what this chair is for. I do not know what this pencil is for. I |
| W1:25.7 | I do not know what this chair is for. I do not | know what this pencil is for. I do not know what this hand is for. |
| W1:25.7 | this chair is for. I do not know what this pencil is for. I do not | know what this hand is for. |
| W1:29.3 | and open-mindedness. You do not see them now. Would you | know what is in them? Nothing is as it appears to you. Its holy |
| W1:39.4 | you to whom your holiness belongs be excluded from it? God does not | know unholiness. Can it be He does not know His Son? |
| W1:39.4 | from it? God does not know unholiness. Can it be He does not | know His Son? |
| W1:43.14 | This form is equally applicable to strangers and to those you | know well. Try, in fact, not to make distinctions of this kind at all. |
| W1:54.3 | on the world I see as the representation of my own state of mind. I | know that my state of mind can change. And so I also know the world I |
| W1:54.3 | of mind. I know that my state of mind can change. And so I also | know the world I see can change as well. |
| W1:55.2 | I also do not understand His Son. What I see tells me that I do not | know who I am. I am determined to see the witnesses to the truth in |
| W1:55.5 | interests. How could I recognize my own best interests when I do not | know who I am? What I think are my best interests would merely bind |
| W1:55.6 | [25] I do not | know what anything is for. To me, the purpose of everything is to |
| W1:56.2 | [26] My attack thoughts are attacking my invulnerability. How can I | know who I am when I see myself as under constant attack? Pain, |
| W1:68.1 | You who were created by Love like Itself can hold no grievances and | know your Self. To hold a grievance is to forget who you are. To hold |
| W1:68.8 | you as my friend that I may remember you are part of me and come to | know myself. |
| W1:68.10 | Love holds no grievances. When I let all my grievances go, I will | know I am perfectly safe. |
| W1:69.9 | also that you are not searching for it alone and that you do | know where to look for it. Say, then: |
| W1:72.12 | What is salvation, Father? I do not | know. Tell me, that I may understand. |
| W1:72.16 | What is salvation, Father? I do not | know. Tell me, that I may understand. |
| W1:73.2 | awareness and your brothers' reality. Beholding them, you do not | know your brothers nor your Self. |
| W1:73.6 | ego's arguments which seek to prove all this is really Heaven. You | know it is not so. You cannot want this for yourself. There is a |
| W1:75.7 | You can look upon it now as if you never saw it before. You do not | know yet what it looks like. You merely wait to have it shown to you. |
| W1:75.10 | Tell Him you | know you cannot fail because you trust in Him. Tell yourself you wait |
| W1:78.6 | You | know the one to choose; his name has crossed your mind already. He |
| W1:79.1 | A problem cannot be solved if you do not | know what it is. Even if it is really solved already, you will still |
| W1:79.7 | is and what is the answer to it. We will not assume that we already | know. We will try to free our minds of all the many different kinds |
| W1:98.3 | given them to do. They do not doubt their own ability because they | know their function will be filled completely in the perfect time and |
| W1:99.5 | pain and death, on grief and separation, and on loss. Yet does He | know one thing must still be true—God still is Love, and this is |
| W1:99.14 | let Him teach you what you need to learn to lay all fear aside and | know your Self as Love Which has no opposite in you. |
| W1:101.2 | warrant only death and pain, and it is this they ask for, for they | know it waits for them and it will seek them out and find them |
| W1:104.3 | They belong to us today. Therefore we will to have them now and | know in choosing them in place of what we made we but unite our will |
| W1:110.9 | is waiting your acknowledgment as you. And you are lost and do not | know yourself while He is unacknowledged and unknown. |
| W1:121.14 | from the dream that I am mortal, fallible, and full of sin and | know I am the perfect Son of God. |
| W1:124.6 | No miracle can ever be denied to those who | know that they are one with God. No thought of theirs but has the |
| W1:127.11 | because we cannot leave a part of us outside our love if we would | know our Self. At least three times an hour think of one who makes |
| W1:129.3 | has no meaning? Is it loss to find all things you really want and | know they have no ending, and they will remain exactly as you want |
| W1:130.10 | of seeing that your eyes alone have ever seen before. And you will | know God's strength upheld as you made this choice. |
| W1:132.11 | What is the lesson for today except another way of saying that to | know your Self is the salvation of the world? To free the world from |
| W1:132.12 | it is your thoughts which made it and must set it free that you may | know the thoughts you share with God. |
| W1:132.17 | thought it was. For I am real because the world is not, and I would | know my own reality. |
| W1:135.13 | is relieved from the belief that it must plan, although it cannot | know the outcome which is best, the means by which it is achieved, |
| W1:139.3 | To be alive and not to | know yourself is to believe that you are really dead. For what is |
| W1:139.4 | alive at all unless he knew the answer. If he asks as if he did not | know, it merely shows he does not want to be the thing he is. He has |
| W1:139.4 | against it and denied its worth, and has decided that he does not | know the only certainty by which he lives. Thus he becomes uncertain |
| W1:139.5 | you are. But you have split your mind into what knows and does not | know the truth. You are yourself. There is no doubt of this, and yet |
| W1:139.6 | whose purpose is to be a home where those who claim they do not | know themselves can come to question what it is they are. |
| W1:139.7 | proof you need to show that you believe the contradiction that you | know not what you cannot fail to know. |
| W1:139.7 | believe the contradiction that you know not what you cannot fail to | know. |
| W1:139.9 | brothers, or you fail yourself. Look lovingly on them that they may | know that they are part of you and you of them. This does Atonement |
| W1:151.6 | is your own are false and speak with certainty of what they do not | know. Your faith in them is blind because you would not share the |
| W1:152.6 | is arrogance? God made it not. Of this you can be sure. What can He | know of the ephemeral, the sinful and the guilty, the afraid, the |
| W1:153.4 | idea of all the devastation it has wrought. You are its slave. You | know not what you do in fear of it. You do not understand how much |
| W1:153.18 | quiet ways where you will walk in true defenselessness, for you will | know that Heaven goes with you. Nor would you keep your mind away |
| W1:154.1 | to our function. It is not our part to judge our worth, nor can we | know what role is best for us; what we can do within a larger plan we |
| W1:154.8 | you wait to give the messages you have received, and so you do not | know that they are yours and do not recognize them. No one can |
| W1:154.12 | a thousand miracles and then receive a thousand more but will not | know that God Himself has left no gift beyond what you already have |
| W1:155.10 | holy as Himself. Step back in faith, and let truth lead the way. You | know not where you go, but One Who knows goes with you. Let Him lead |
| W1:157.9 | of your remembrance of what you knew that instant and will surely | know again. |
| W1:160.2 | he speaks a different language, looks upon a world truth does not | know, and understands what truth regards as senseless. Stranger yet, |
| W1:160.7 | interposed between His knowledge and His Son's reality. He does not | know of strangers. He is certain of His Son. |
| W1:164.4 | completely different from all things you sought before that you will | know that here your treasure is and here your rest. |
| W1:166.10 | God you have imprisoned in your plan to lose your Self. He does not | know about a plan so alien to His Will. There was a need He did not |
| W1:169.3 | God's Voice. It has become aware that there are things it does not | know and thus is ready to accept a state completely different from |
| W1:R5.4 | and more descriptive of the holy Self we share and now prepare to | know again: |
| W1:R5.8 | We walk together. I must understand uncertainty and pain, although I | know they have no meaning. Yet a savior must remain with those he |
| W1:182.1 | seem to live in is not home to you. And somewhere in your mind you | know that this is true. A memory of home keeps haunting you, as if |
| W1:182.6 | sounds and harsh and rasping noises of the world. Yet does He | know that in you still abides His sure protection. You will fail Him |
| W1:183.1 | Name reminds you who you are, even within a world that does not | know; even though you have not remembered it. |
| W1:185.13 | sure you share one will with Him, and He with you. And you will also | know you share one will with all your brothers, whose intent is yours. |
| W1:186.7 | the image trembles and seeks to attack the threat it does not | know, sensing its basis crumble. Let it go. Salvation of the world |
| W1:188.6 | the outer world and let your thoughts fly to the peace within. They | know the way. For honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly |
| W1:189.8 | Is it not He Who knows the way to you? You need not | know the way to Him. Your part is simply to allow all obstacles that |
| W1:189.10 | Father, we do not | know the way to You. But we have called, and You have answered us. We |
| W1:193.1 | God does not | know of learning. Yet His Will extends to what He does not understand |
| W1:197.2 | How easily are God and guilt confused by those who | know not what their thoughts can do. Deny your strength, and weakness |
| W1:198.14 | Son he is, that to behold the Son is to perceive no more and only | know the Father? In this vision of the Son, so brief that not an |
| W1:R6.6 | and understood. For thus is freedom given us from all we did not | know and failed to understand. |
| W2:I.7 | to find our way by following the Guide You sent to us. We did not | know the way, but You did not forget us. And we know that You will |
| W2:I.7 | to us. We did not know the way, but You did not forget us. And we | know that You will not forget us now. We ask but that Your ancient |
| W2:223.1 | moved in isolation, unattached, and housed within a body. Now I | know my life is God's. I have no other home, and I do not exist apart |
| W2:224.2 | oh Father, still is known to You. I have forgotten it and do not | know where I am going, who I am, or what it is I do. Remind me, |
| W2:227.1 | forever from my mind. This is my holy instant of release. Father, I | know my will is one with Yours. |
| W2:WS.2 | still was one but failed to recognize its oneness. Now it did not | know itself and thought its own Identity was lost. |
| W2:238.1 | trust in me has been so great I must be worthy. You created me and | know me as I am. And yet You placed Your Son's salvation in my hands |
| W2:242.2 | may think we want. Give us what You would have received by us. You | know all our desires and our needs. And You will give us everything |
| W2:243.1 | I will be honest with myself today. I will not think that I already | know what must remain beyond my present grasp. I will not think I |
| W2:244.1 | and Your Love, for they are one. How can he fear or doubt or fail to | know he cannot suffer, be endangered, or experience unhappiness when |
| W2:246.1 | in my heart. Let me not try to hurt God's Son and think that I can | know his Father or my Self. Let me not fail to recognize myself and |
| W2:WIS.1 | or reach to grasp? What would they sense at all? To sense is not to | know. And truth can be but filled with knowledge and with nothing |
| W2:252.2 | Father, You | know my true Identity. Reveal it now to me who am Your Son, that I |
| W2:252.2 | now to me who am Your Son, that I may waken to the truth in You and | know that Heaven is restored to me. |
| W2:260.2 | our true Identity at last. Holy indeed are we because our Source can | know no sin. And we who are His Sons are like each other and alike to |
| W2:WIC.5 | face and look on nothing else. As we behold His glory will we | know we have no need of learning or perception or of time, or |
| W2:274.1 | illusions were, light will replace all darkness, and Your Son will | know he is as You created him. |
| W2:278.1 | are real and cannot be escaped. If I am bound in any way, I do not | know my Father or my Self. And I am lost to all reality. For truth is |
| W2:288.1 | me to my goal. I cannot come to You without my brother. And to | know my Source, I first must recognize what You created one with me. |
| W2:288.2 | Forgive me, then, today. And you will | know you have forgiven me if you behold your brother in the light of |
| W2:291.2 | And I accept what comes from You instead of from myself. I do not | know the way to You. But You are wholly certain. Father, lead Your |
| W2:299.1 | My holiness is far beyond my own ability to understand or | know. Yet God my Father, Who created it, acknowledges my holiness as |
| W2:299.2 | all things healed, for they remain as You created them. And I can | know my holiness. For Holiness Itself created me, and I can know my |
| W2:299.2 | I can know my holiness. For Holiness Itself created me, and I can | know my Source because it is Your will that You be known. |
| W2:311.2 | open mind today to hear Your Judgment of the Son You love. We do not | know him, and we cannot judge. And so we let Your Love decide what he |
| W2:WICR.4 | Its sureness being theirs. God's memory is in our holy minds, which | know their oneness and their unity with their Creator. Let our |
| W2:326.1 | his Cause that Cause and Its Effect are indistinguishable. Let me | know that I am an Effect of God, and so I have the power to create |
| W2:326.1 | is in Heaven, so on earth. Your plan I follow here, and at the end I | know that You will gather Your Effects into the tranquil Heaven of |
| W2:330.2 | Your Son cannot be hurt. And if we think we suffer, we but fail to | know our one Identity we share with You. We would return to It today, |
| W2:WIE.3 | The Son of God is egoless. What can he | know of madness and the death of God when he abides in Him? What can |
| W2:WIE.3 | of madness and the death of God when he abides in Him? What can he | know of sorrow and of suffering when he lives in eternal joy? What |
| W2:WIE.3 | of sorrow and of suffering when he lives in eternal joy? What can he | know of fear and punishment, of sin and guilt, of hatred and attack |
| W2:WIE.4 | To | know Reality is not to see the ego and its thoughts, its works, its |
| W2:337.1 | can be my state, for only happiness is given me. What must I do to | know all this is mine? I must accept Atonement for myself and nothing |
| W2:337.1 | protecting me from harm, to understand my Father loves His Son, to | know I am the Son my Father loves. |
| W2:346.1 | I would forget all things except Your Love. I would abide in You and | know no laws except Your law of Love. And I would find the peace |
| W2:347.1 | dreams would hide from my awareness. Let Him judge today. I do not | know my will, but He is sure it is Your own. And He will speak for |
| W2:355.1 | choose and my Identity along with You. Your Son would be Himself and | know You as his Father and Creator and his Love. |
| W2:358.1 | the form You chose that it be mine. Let me remember all I do not | know, and let my voice be still, remembering. But let me not forget |
| M:4.9 | Now must the teacher of God understand that he did not really | know what was valuable and what was valueless. All that he really |
| M:4.9 | thought he had learned willingness, but now he sees that he does not | know what the willingness is for. And now he must attain a state that |
| M:10.4 | you were! Is there anyone who has not had this experience? Would you | know how many times you merely thought you were right, without ever |
| M:10.4 | this—there is Someone with you Whose judgment is perfect. He does | know all the facts, past, present, and to come. He does know all the |
| M:10.4 | He does know all the facts, past, present, and to come. He does | know all the effects of His judgment on everyone and everything |
| M:13.3 | without finding, to be forever dissatisfied and discontented, to | know not what it really wants to find. Who can escape this |
| M:16.11 | this that leads to pain. “There is no will but God's.” His teachers | know that this is so and have learned that everything but this is |
| M:24.4 | told about it. He will also be told how to use it. What more need he | know? |

| Tx:8.77 | of a teacher who does not know the answer. The ego is incapable of | knowing how you feel. When we said that the ego does not know |
| Tx:8.82 | a pathetic way of trying not to know by rendering the faculties for | knowing ineffectual. “Rest in peace” is a blessing for the living, |
| Tx:8.113 | does. Your deceptions may deceive you, but they cannot deceive me. | Knowing what you are, I cannot doubt you. I hear only the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:9.3 | from it. Since He does not understand it, He does not judge it, | knowing that nothing it engenders means anything. |
| Tx:9.33 | call upon it in them, it becomes real to you. God has but one Son, | knowing them all as one. Only God Himself is more than they, but they |
| Tx:9.67 | your mind simultaneously to your Creator and your creations. | Knowing them, you will have no wish to sleep but only the will to |
| Tx:9.92 | for the rays are there unseen. Perceiving the spark will heal, but | knowing the light will create. Yet in the returning, the little light |
| Tx:9.98 | much mistaken. Yet this can be corrected, and God will help you, | knowing that you could not sin against Him. You denied Him because |
| Tx:9.98 | you could not sin against Him. You denied Him because you loved Him, | knowing that if you recognized your love for Him, you could not deny |
| Tx:10.15 | Him. You who share His Life must share it to know it, for sharing is | knowing. Blessed are you who learn that to hear the Will of your |
| Tx:11.58 | share with you because He knows of the Father's love for Him. And | knowing this, He would give you what is yours. In perfect peace He |
| Tx:12.5 | to find him. You have handled this wish to kill yourself by not | knowing who you are and identifying with something else. You have |
| Tx:12.22 | make lonely. God did not do this to you. Could He set you apart, | knowing that your peace lies in His Oneness? He denied you only your |
| Tx:13.4 | He is not separate from either, being in the mind of both and | knowing that mind is one. He is a Thought of God, and God has given |
| Tx:13.8 | miracle you offered to your brothers will be returned to you. And | knowing that the light is in you, your creations will be there with |
| Tx:13.38 | of not sharing. The Holy Spirit points quietly to the contrast, | knowing that you will finally let Him judge the difference for you, |
| Tx:13.56 | The Holy Spirit, seeing where you are but | knowing you are elsewhere, begins His lesson in simplicity with the |
| Tx:14.1 | be guiltless. Yet if you do not accept the necessary conditions for | knowing Him, you have denied Him and do not recognize Him, though He |
| Tx:14.1 | be known without His Son, whose guiltlessness is the condition for | knowing Him. Accepting His Son as guilty is denial of the Father so |
| Tx:15.32 | me, who have decided to abide with you. I will as my Father wills, | knowing His Will is constant and at peace forever with Itself. You |
| Tx:15.53 | you exactly as He knows you now. The holy instant parallels His | knowing by bringing all perception out of the past, thus removing the |
| Tx:16.1 | not relate through the ego to another ego. He does not join in pain, | knowing that healing pain is not accomplished by delusional attempts |
| Tx:18.2 | sees them joined and indivisible. He does not judge between them, | knowing they are one. Being united, they are one because they are the |
| Tx:19.57 | Yet would I offer you my body, you whom I love, | knowing its littleness? Or would I teach that bodies cannot keep us |
| Tx:19.108 | the veil, not to be lost, but found; not to be seen, but known. And | knowing, nothing in the plan God has established for salvation will |
| Tx:20.4 | face and recognize it. I was a stranger and you took me in, not | knowing who I was. Yet for your gift of lilies you will know. In your |
| Tx:20.11 | of God is nothing to you now. Who is afraid to look upon illusions, | knowing his savior stands beside him? With him, your vision has |
| Tx:28.45 | I thank you, Father, | knowing you will come to close each little gap that lies between the |
| Tx:31.77 | given each of you to save are everyone you meet or look upon, not | knowing who they are, all those you saw an instant and forgot, and |
| W1:49.3 | will approach this happiest and holiest of thoughts with confidence, | knowing that in doing so we are joining our will with the Will of |
| W1:50.1 | money, “protective” clothing, “influence,” “prestige,” being liked, | knowing the “right” people, and an endless list of forms of |
| W1:105.1 | God's peace and joy are yours. Today we will accept them, | knowing they belong to us. And we will try to understand these gifts |

knowledge (237) | ||
| Tx:2.1 | This section deals with a fundamental misuse of | knowledge, referred to in the Bible as the cause of the “fall,” or |
| Tx:2.16 | kind of “knowledge” which is nothing more than deceiving lies. The | knowledge which illuminates rather than obscures is the knowledge |
| Tx:2.16 | lies. The knowledge which illuminates rather than obscures is the | knowledge which not only sets you free, but which also shows you |
| Tx:3.30 | is to be certain. Uncertainty merely means that you do not know. | Knowledge is power because it is certain, and certainty is strength. |
| Tx:3.30 | certainty, because all perception varies. That is why it is not | knowledge. |
| Tx:3.31 | True perception is the basis for | knowledge, but knowing is the affirmation of truth. All your |
| Tx:3.32 | given time determines what you do, and action must occur in time. | Knowledge is timeless, because certainty is not questionable. You |
| Tx:3.34 | is involved at all removes the experience from the realm of | knowledge. That is why visions do not last. |
| Tx:3.35 | not require action. When you say that you are acting on the basis of | knowledge, you are really confusing perception and cognition. |
| Tx:3.35 | of knowledge, you are really confusing perception and cognition. | Knowledge brings the mental strength for creative thinking but not |
| Tx:3.35 | right doing. Perception, miracles, and doing are closely related. | Knowledge is the result of revelation and induces only thought. |
| Tx:3.35 | Perception involves the body, even in its most spiritualized form. | Knowledge comes from the altar within and is timeless because it is |
| Tx:3.36 | in His Sons. There He can communicate His certainty, and His | knowledge will bring peace without question. |
| Tx:3.37 | stranger to His Sons, and His Sons are not strangers to each other. | Knowledge preceded both perception and time and will ultimately |
| Tx:3.37 | Abraham was I am.” Perception can and must be stabilized, but | knowledge is stable. “Fear God and keep His commandments” should read |
| Tx:3.38 | he is not certain how he will use them. He is therefore incapable of | knowledge, being uncertain. He is also incapable of knowledge, |
| Tx:3.38 | incapable of knowledge, being uncertain. He is also incapable of | knowledge, because he can perceive lovelessly. He cannot create |
| Tx:3.39 | Consciousness is thus the level of perception but not of | knowledge. Again, to perceive is not to know. |
| Tx:3.43 | a fact which clearly demonstrates a lack of association with | knowledge. The term “right-mindedness” is properly used as the |
| Tx:3.46 | This is why perception involves an exchange or translation, which | knowledge does not need. The interpretive function of perception, |
| Tx:3.47 | process of destruction at all. We have already emphasized that | knowledge does not do anything. It can be perceived as an attacker, |
| Tx:3.48 | will to be blocked out. I was a man who remembered the Soul and its | knowledge, and as a man I did not attempt to counteract error with |
| Tx:3.48 | knowledge, and as a man I did not attempt to counteract error with | knowledge so much as to correct error from the bottom up. I |
| Tx:3.51 | made it clear that the resurrection was the means for the return to | knowledge, which was accomplished by the union of my will with the |
| Tx:3.53 | that it has become literally impossible for you to know anything. | Knowledge is always stable, and it is quite evident that human beings |
| Tx:3.55 | however, that this ingenuity has almost totally divorced him from | knowledge. Knowledge does not require ingenuity. When we say “the |
| Tx:3.55 | that this ingenuity has almost totally divorced him from knowledge. | Knowledge does not require ingenuity. When we say “the truth shall |
| Tx:3.56 | resemble his Father only by miraculously perceiving. He has lost the | knowledge that he himself is a miracle. Miraculous creation was his |
| Tx:3.58 | it is to know all of it. Only perception involves partial awareness. | Knowledge transcends all the laws which govern perception because |
| Tx:3.58 | transcends all the laws which govern perception because partial | knowledge is impossible. It is all one and has no separate parts. You |
| Tx:3.58 | You who are really one with it need but know yourself, and your | knowledge is complete. To know God's miracle is to know Him. |
| Tx:3.63 | certainly do not need it to organize yourselves. In the presence of | knowledge, all judgment is automatically suspended, and this is the |
| Tx:3.75 | was possible? The “tree” which was forbidden was named the “tree of | knowledge.” Yet God created knowledge and gave it freely to His |
| Tx:3.75 | was forbidden was named the “tree of knowledge.” Yet God created | knowledge and gave it freely to His creations. The symbolism here has |
| Tx:3.76 | Eating of the fruit of the tree of | knowledge is a symbolic expression for incorporating into the self |
| Tx:3.77 | Images are perceived, not known. | Knowledge cannot deceive, but perception can. Man can perceive |
| Tx:3.80 | salvation are willing death. Life and death, light and darkness, | knowledge and perception are irreconcilable. To believe that they can |
| Tx:3.80 | is to believe that God and man can not. Only the oneness of | knowledge is conflictless. Your kingdom is not of this world because |
| Tx:4.2 | know that I am God.” These words are inspired because they come from | knowledge. If you speak from the ego, you are disclaiming knowledge |
| Tx:4.2 | come from knowledge. If you speak from the ego, you are disclaiming | knowledge instead of affirming it and are thus dispiriting yourself. |
| Tx:4.26 | state is a good example of how the mind made the ego. You do have | knowledge at times, but when you throw it away, it is as if you never |
| Tx:4.34 | The Soul in its | knowledge is unaware of the ego. It does not attack it; it merely |
| Tx:4.38 | status of fact is questionable, because facts are in the realm of | knowledge. |
| Tx:4.46 | from being swept away, as it would surely be in the presence of | knowledge. |
| Tx:4.48 | Against this sense of temporary existence the Soul offers you the | knowledge of permanence and unshakable being. No one who has |
| Tx:4.52 | entered your mind to give up every idea you ever had that opposes | knowledge. You retain thousands of little scraps of meanness which |
| Tx:4.67 | I am not because, if I am real, I am no more real than you are. That | knowledge, and I assure you that it is knowledge, means that Christ |
| Tx:4.67 | more real than you are. That knowledge, and I assure you that it is | knowledge, means that Christ must come into your minds and heal them. |
| Tx:4.81 | It is necessary to do so only because misperception is a block to | knowledge, while accurate perception is a stepping-stone towards it. |
| Tx:4.82 | a continuum nor is it understood by being compared to an opposite. | Knowledge never involves comparisons. That is its essential |
| Tx:4.86 | to the whole Sonship, which includes me, you come as close to | knowledge as perception ever can. The gap is then so small that |
| Tx:4.86 | to knowledge as perception ever can. The gap is then so small that | knowledge can easily flow across it and obliterate it forever. You |
| Tx:4.90 | for you, knowing that to know your brother is to know God. A little | knowledge is an all-encompassing thing. If you are grateful to each |
| Tx:4.101 | returned by that mind through its attitudes to other minds which the | knowledge from the revelation brings. |
| Tx:5.11 | proper in this context because the Holy Inspiration is so close to | knowledge that it calls it forth; or better, allows it to come. We |
| Tx:5.11 | so close to truth that God Himself can flow across the little gap. | Knowledge is always ready to flow everywhere, but it cannot oppose. |
| Tx:5.11 | never lose it. The Holy Spirit is the Christ Mind, which senses the | knowledge that lies beyond perception. It came into being with the |
| Tx:5.12 | and the new situation to which it is transferred. Perception is not | knowledge, but it can be transferred to knowledge or cross over into |
| Tx:5.12 | Perception is not knowledge, but it can be transferred to | knowledge or cross over into it. It might even be more helpful here |
| Tx:5.15 | therefore truly open. This means that, although it does not engender | knowledge, it does not obstruct it in any way. [Third, it is an |
| Tx:5.21 | not know now. God does not guide because He can share only perfect | knowledge. Guidance is evaluative, because it implies that there is a |
| Tx:5.22 | This is a conflict state. It means that | knowledge has been lost, because knowledge is sure. God is not in you |
| Tx:5.22 | is a conflict state. It means that knowledge has been lost, because | knowledge is sure. God is not in you in a literal sense; you are part |
| Tx:5.22 | you a Voice to speak for Him because He could no longer share His | knowledge with you without hindrance. Direct communication was broken |
| Tx:5.32 | the Holy Spirit is the bridge or thought-transfer of perception to | knowledge, so we can use the terms as if they were related, because |
| Tx:5.38 | is the Mediator between the interpretations of the ego and the | knowledge of the Soul. His ability to deal with symbols enables Him |
| Tx:5.38 | but by understanding. Understanding is light, and light leads to | knowledge. The Holy Spirit is in light because He is in you who are |
| Tx:5.40 | are as closely related as are time and war. Perception as well as | knowledge derives meaning from relationships. Those which you accept |
| Tx:5.44 | perception for others because of what you saw in them but less than | knowledge of your real relationships to them, because you did not |
| Tx:5.44 | perception because it introduces meaning. It is, however, below | knowledge even though it can grow towards it. It is possible, with |
| Tx:5.71 | God in His | knowledge is not waiting, but His Kingdom is bereft while you wait. |
| Tx:5.89 | This | knowledge plagued Freud's belief in his own thought system at every |
| Tx:6.16 | necessary to enable the Sonship to know its wholeness. Only this is | knowledge. |
| Tx:6.31 | God, but the Holy Spirit remains the bridge between perception and | knowledge. By enabling you to use perception in a way that parallels |
| Tx:6.31 | knowledge. By enabling you to use perception in a way that parallels | knowledge, you will ultimately meet it and know it. The ego would |
| Tx:6.40 | The Holy Spirit still holds | knowledge safe through His impartial perception. By attacking |
| Tx:6.44 | Only thus can you win back the | knowledge that you threw away. An idea which you share, you must |
| Tx:6.65 | into being, just as He ultimately translates perception into | knowledge. [You do not lose what you communicate.] The ego uses the |
| Tx:7.6 | God is whole. We have said that the last step in the reawakening of | knowledge is taken by God. This is true, but it is hard to explain in |
| Tx:7.16 | of truth, which is the law of the Kingdom, rests only on the | knowledge of what truth is. This is your inheritance and requires no |
| Tx:7.34 | to teach you He is in you. This is an intermediary step toward the | knowledge that you are in God, because you are part of Him. The |
| Tx:7.37 | you do not know what you are. Healing, then, is a way of approaching | knowledge by thinking in accordance with the laws of God and |
| Tx:7.57 | not know your own safety. The ego cannot afford to know anything. | Knowledge is total, and the ego does not believe in totality. This |
| Tx:7.59 | all appreciation, all recognition, all sane perception, and all | knowledge. It perceives their threat as total, because it senses the |
| Tx:7.64 | perceiving in total contradiction to the Holy Spirit and to the | knowledge of God. |
| Tx:7.65 | with meaning only by the Holy Spirit, because your being is the | knowledge of God. Any belief that you accept which is apart from this |
| Tx:7.92 | of sacrifice. Being must be extended. That is how it retains the | knowledge of itself. |
| Tx:8.1 | do not know. The need for the course is implicit in your objection. | Knowledge is not the motivation for learning this course. Peace is. |
| Tx:8.1 | for learning this course. Peace is. As the prerequisite for | knowledge, peace must be learned. This is only because those who are |
| Tx:8.1 | who are in conflict are not peaceful, and peace is the condition of | knowledge, because it is the condition of the Kingdom. |
| Tx:8.2 | Knowledge will be restored when you meet its conditions. This is not | |
| Tx:8.2 | of your misuse of His laws on behalf of a will that is not His. | Knowledge is His Will. If you are opposing His Will, how can you have |
| Tx:8.2 | is His Will. If you are opposing His Will, how can you have | knowledge? I have told you what knowledge offers you, but it is clear |
| Tx:8.2 | opposing His Will, how can you have knowledge? I have told you what | knowledge offers you, but it is clear that you do not regard this as |
| Tx:8.35 | as something they do not want, they perceive deception and block | knowledge. |
| Tx:8.50 | this belief, you cannot understand anything. I share with God the | knowledge of the value He puts upon you. My devotion to you is of |
| Tx:8.50 | He puts upon you. My devotion to you is of Him, being born of my | knowledge of myself and Him. We cannot be separated. Whom God has |
| Tx:8.51 | The journey to God is merely the reawakening of the | knowledge of where you are always and what you are forever. It is a |
| Tx:8.70 | the part, but the part does not define the whole. This is as true of | knowledge as it is of perception. The reason to know in part is to |
| Tx:8.70 | is to know entirely is because of the fundamental difference between | knowledge and perception. In perception the whole is built up of |
| Tx:8.70 | which can separate and reassemble in different constellations. | Knowledge never changes, so its constellation is permanent. The only |
| Tx:8.77 | about the ego that is wholly true. But there is a corollary; if | knowledge is being and the ego has no knowledge, then the ego has no |
| Tx:8.77 | But there is a corollary; if knowledge is being and the ego has no | knowledge, then the ego has no being. |
| Tx:9.27 | it is there. That is how perception ultimately is translated into | knowledge. The miracle worker begins by perceiving light and |
| Tx:9.34 | it everywhere. You can know yourself only as God knows His Son, for | knowledge is shared with God. When you awake in Him you will know |
| Tx:9.40 | He looks with love on you. His evaluation of you is based on His | knowledge of what you are, and so He evaluates you truly. And this |
| Tx:9.44 | before that the ego does not know what a real question is. Lack of | knowledge of any kind is always associated with unwillingness to know |
| Tx:9.44 | associated with unwillingness to know and produces a total lack of | knowledge simply because knowledge is total. Not to question your |
| Tx:9.44 | to know and produces a total lack of knowledge simply because | knowledge is total. Not to question your littleness, therefore, is to |
| Tx:9.44 | is total. Not to question your littleness, therefore, is to deny all | knowledge and keep the ego's whole thought system intact. You cannot |
| Tx:9.64 | part of your mind that does not know this has banished itself from | knowledge because it has not met its conditions. |
| Tx:9.68 | Unless you know something, you cannot dissociate it. | Knowledge therefore precedes dissociation, and dissociation is |
| Tx:9.68 | are fearful because you have forgotten. And you have replaced your | knowledge by an awareness of dreams because you are afraid of your |
| Tx:9.69 | Offer the Holy Spirit only your will to remember, for He retains the | knowledge of God and of yourself for you, waiting for your |
| Tx:9.69 | world delay your remembering of Him, for in this remembering is the | knowledge of yourself. |
| Tx:9.70 | do yours, and His return in exchange for yours is the exchange of | knowledge for perception. Nothing is beyond His Will for you. But |
| Tx:9.79 | appreciation for every Soul which God created because of the calm | knowledge that each one is part of Him. God's Son knows no idols, but |
| Tx:9.86 | and because of your ability to evaluate it truly, to let it go. | Knowledge cannot dawn on a mind full of illusions because truth and |
| Tx:10.5 | your need of healing for yourself? For in this lies the beginning of | knowledge, the foundation on which God will help you build again the |
| Tx:10.21 | be as God, for His function became yours with His gift. Invite this | knowledge back into your minds, and let nothing that will obscure it |
| Tx:10.40 | What is healing but the removal of all that stands in the way of | knowledge? And how else can one dispel illusions except by looking at |
| Tx:10.45 | apart from Him? The belief in ego autonomy is costing you the | knowledge of your dependence on God in which your freedom lies. The |
| Tx:10.72 | The perception of goodness is not | knowledge, but the denial of the opposite of goodness enables you to |
| Tx:10.72 | in which opposites do not exist. And this is the condition of | knowledge. Without this awareness, you have not met its conditions, |
| Tx:10.74 | with which your new and only real perception will be translated into | knowledge will leave you only an instant to realize that this |
| Tx:10.75 | re-interpretation of the world is the transfer of all perception to | knowledge. The Bible tells you to become as little children. Little |
| Tx:11.13 | denial of union and, correctly interpreted, attests to your eternal | knowledge that union is true. |
| Tx:11.23 | must reveal it to yourself in perfect willingness, for otherwise His | knowledge remains useless to you. Surely He will not fail to help |
| Tx:11.59 | led you to Christ at the altar to His Father, perception fuses into | knowledge because perception has become so holy that its transfer to |
| Tx:11.59 | is universal. When this has been accomplished, perception and | knowledge have become so similar that they share the unification of |
| Tx:11.60 | separate, and the denial of the separation is the reinstatement of | knowledge. At the altar of God, the holy perception of God's Son |
| Tx:11.78 | its works were not created by the Father and could not live in the | knowledge of Him. |
| Tx:11.84 | last have seen truly. Redeemed perception is easily translated into | knowledge, for only perception is capable of error, and perception |
| Tx:11.84 | and perception has never been. Being corrected, it gives place to | knowledge, which is forever the only reality. The Atonement is but |
| Tx:11.87 | the Father Who drove him out of paradise. For in that belief, the | knowledge of the Father was lost, since only those who do not |
| Tx:12.67 | Holy Spirit corrects the world of dreams, where all perception is. | Knowledge needs no correction. Yet the dreams of love lead unto |
| Tx:12.67 | is. Knowledge needs no correction. Yet the dreams of love lead unto | knowledge. In them you see nothing fearful, and because of this, they |
| Tx:12.67 | fearful, and because of this, they are the welcome that you offer | knowledge. Love waits on welcome, not on time, and the real world is |
| Tx:13.1 | that the past does not exist, a fact which belongs to the sphere of | knowledge and which therefore no one in the world knows. It would |
| Tx:13.1 | knows. It would indeed be impossible to be in the world with this | knowledge. For the mind that knows this unequivocally knows also that |
| Tx:13.2 | The very real difference between perception and | knowledge becomes quite apparent if you consider this: There is |
| Tx:13.2 | quite apparent if you consider this: There is nothing partial about | knowledge. Every aspect is whole, and therefore no aspect is |
| Tx:13.2 | is whole, and therefore no aspect is separate. You are an aspect of | knowledge, being in the Mind of God, Who knows you. All knowledge |
| Tx:13.2 | an aspect of knowledge, being in the Mind of God, Who knows you. All | knowledge must be yours, for in you is all knowledge. Perception at |
| Tx:13.2 | God, Who knows you. All knowledge must be yours, for in you is all | knowledge. Perception at its loftiest is never complete. Even the |
| Tx:13.3 | Perfect perception, then, has many elements in common with | knowledge, making transfer to it possible. Yet the last step must be |
| Tx:13.7 | in the redemption and who are seeking you and where to find them. | Knowledge is far beyond your individual concern. You, who are part of |
| Tx:13.8 | When you have seen your brothers as yourself, you will be released to | knowledge, having learned to free yourself of Him Who knows of |
| Tx:13.19 | guilt where God knows there is perfect innocence? You can deny His | knowledge, but you cannot change it. Look, then, upon the light He |
| Tx:13.48 | are blessed and do not know it, you need to learn it must be so. The | knowledge is not taught, but its conditions must be acquired, for it |
| Tx:13.62 | the conditions of learning here, as he also meets the conditions of | knowledge in the Kingdom. All this lies in the Holy Spirit's plan to |
| Tx:13.80 | so frantically to anticipate all that you cannot know when all | knowledge lies behind every decision which the Holy Spirit makes for |
| Tx:13.88 | He has always done. Giving Himself is all He knows, and so it is all | knowledge. For what He knows not cannot be and therefore cannot be |
| Tx:13.89 | You need not understand creation to do what must be done before that | knowledge would be meaningful to you. God breaks no barriers; neither |
| Tx:14.1 | Accepting His Son as guilty is denial of the Father so complete that | knowledge is swept away from recognition in the very mind where God |
| Tx:14.4 | only to the Holy Spirit in your mind because only He shares the | knowledge of what you are with God. And only the Holy Spirit can |
| Tx:14.24 | What do you want? Light or darkness, | knowledge or ignorance are yours, but not both. Opposites must be |
| Tx:14.24 | union. As darkness disappears in light, so ignorance fades away when | knowledge dawns. Perception is the medium by which ignorance is |
| Tx:14.24 | dawns. Perception is the medium by which ignorance is brought to | knowledge. Yet the perception must be without deceit, for otherwise |
| Tx:14.30 | to share with Him the interpretation of perception that leads to | knowledge. |
| Tx:14.36 | God is, there are you. Such is the truth. Nothing can change the | knowledge given you by God into unknowingness. Everything God created |
| Tx:14.38 | Keep not your making from your Father, for hiding it has cost you | knowledge of Him and of yourselves. The knowledge is safe, but |
| Tx:14.38 | for hiding it has cost you knowledge of Him and of yourselves. The | knowledge is safe, but wherein is your safety apart from it? The |
| Tx:14.46 | God and His creations, or between His Children and their own, the | knowledge of creation must continue forever. The reflections which |
| Tx:14.58 | Yet the essential thing is learning that you do not know. | Knowledge is power, and all power is of God. You who have tried to |
| Tx:15.63 | But remember that understanding is of the mind and only of the mind. | Knowledge is therefore of the mind, and its conditions are in the |
| Tx:15.85 | accepted it as the only perception you want, it is translated into | knowledge by the part which God Himself plays in the Atonement, for |
| Tx:16.6 | to a brother. And yet you know no triumph but this. This is not | knowledge, and the form of empathy that would bring this about is so |
| Tx:16.15 | speaks for Him. For His task is to translate the miracle into the | knowledge which it represents and which is lost to you. Let His |
| Tx:16.39 | The bridge that leads to union in yourself must lead to | knowledge, for it was built with God beside you and will lead you |
| Tx:16.39 | your Father. Every fantasy, be it of love or hate, deprives you of | knowledge, for fantasies are the veil behind which truth is hidden. |
| Tx:18.5 | original error, which seemed to cast you out of Heaven, to shatter | knowledge into meaningless bits of disunited perceptions, and to |
| Tx:18.25 | to truth. You know this. The goal which you accepted is the goal of | knowledge, for which you signified your willingness. Fear seems to |
| Tx:18.41 | your dreams of fear to happy dreams from which you waken easily to | knowledge. Put yourself not in charge of this, for you cannot |

| W1:158.2 | this. No one who walks the world but has received it. It is not this | knowledge which you give, for that is what creation gave. All this |
| W1:158.5 | But vision is his gift. This he can give directly, for Christ's | knowledge is not lost because He has a vision He can give to anyone |
| W1:158.5 | can give to anyone who asks. The Father's Will and His are joined in | knowledge. Yet there is a vision which the Holy Spirit sees because |
| W1:158.11 | is not of time. Yet time has still one gift to give in which true | knowledge is reflected in a way so accurate its image shares its |
| W1:160.7 | of what belongs to Him. No stranger can be interposed between His | knowledge and His Son's reality. He does not know of strangers. He is |
| W1:168.4 | by which this world will disappear, and vision first will come with | knowledge but an instant later. For in grace you see a light that |

| Tx:13.43 | you Heaven and will always will you nothing else. The Holy Spirit | knows only of His Will. There is no chance that Heaven will not be |
| Tx:13.51 | to nothing. Yet in him who made this insane logic, there is One Who | knows it leads to nothing, for He knows everything. |
| Tx:13.51 | insane logic, there is One Who knows it leads to nothing, for He | knows everything. |
| Tx:13.52 | Holy Spirit leads you not goes nowhere. Anything you deny which He | knows to be true, you have denied yourself, and He must therefore |
| Tx:13.59 | Like you, the Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like God, He | knows it to be true. He brings the light of truth into the darkness |
| Tx:13.74 | bring to them all that they need, coming as naturally as peace that | knows no limits. There is nothing their wills will not provide that |
| Tx:13.75 | decisions for yourself. You are not bereft of help, and Help that | knows the answer. Would you be content with little, which is all that |
| Tx:13.75 | it not therefore of yourselves. Instead, accept His answer, for He | knows that you are worthy of everything God wills for you. Do not try |
| Tx:13.75 | you. You need not decide whether or not you are deserving of it. God | knows you are. |
| Tx:13.77 | The One Who | knows the plan of God which God would have you follow can teach you |
| Tx:13.77 | what salvation is and what you would be saved from. The Holy Spirit | knows that all salvation is escape from guilt. You have no other |
| Tx:13.78 | therefore, be the only Guide that you would follow to salvation. He | knows the way and leads you gladly on it. With Him you will not fail |
| Tx:13.80 | me,” and it is done. For His decisions are reflections of what God | knows about you, and in this light, error of any kind becomes |
| Tx:13.84 | He leadeth me and | knows the way, which I know not. Yet He will never keep from me what |
| Tx:13.84 | have me learn. And so I trust Him to communicate to me all that He | knows for me. |
| Tx:13.88 | give Himself to you as He has always done. Giving Himself is all He | knows, and so it is all knowledge. For what He knows not cannot be |
| Tx:13.88 | Himself is all He knows, and so it is all knowledge. For what He | knows not cannot be and therefore cannot be given. Ask not to be |
| Tx:13.90 | yourself. He created you out of Himself but still within Him. He | knows what you are. Remember that there is no second to Him. There |
| Tx:13.91 | decisions to the One Who speaks for God and for your function as He | knows it. So will He teach you to remove the awful burden you have |
| Tx:13.92 | not delay at all in answering your every question what to do. He | knows. And He will tell you and then do it for you. You who are tired |
| Tx:14.2 | perfect gentleness. Would you know of One Who gives forever and Who | knows of nothing except giving? |
| Tx:14.4 | God. And only the Holy Spirit can answer God for you, for only He | knows what God is. Everything else that you have placed within your |
| Tx:14.6 | perfect as yours is fallible. You know not what you do, but He Who | knows is with you. His gentleness is yours, and all the love you |
| Tx:14.13 | not of us but of our Father. In guiltlessness we know Him, as He | knows us guiltless. I stand within the circle, calling you to peace. |
| Tx:14.20 | All things you made have use to Him for His most holy purpose. He | knows you are not separate from God, but He perceives much in your |
| Tx:14.21 | to Him. He will interpret it to you with perfect clarity, for He | knows with Whom you are in perfect communication. |
| Tx:14.26 | From their point of view, it is not true. Yet it is true because God | knows it. These are clearly opposite viewpoints of what the |
| Tx:14.28 | no protection does not defend itself. Defense is of your making. God | knows it not. The Holy Spirit uses defenses on behalf of truth only |
| Tx:14.29 | He can fulfill what God has given Him to do. Leave that to Him Who | knows. You are not asked to do mighty tasks yourself. You are merely |
| Tx:14.36 | given you by God into unknowingness. Everything God created | knows its Creator. For this is how creation is accomplished by the |
| Tx:14.41 | waits quietly for the return of them that love it. The Presence | knows they will return to purity and to grace. The graciousness of |
| Tx:14.43 | him. He recognizes it because he has been taught his need for it but | knows not where to look to find it. Let him, then, see it in you and |
| Tx:14.55 | with which He answers you. Everyone seeks for love as you do and | knows it not unless he joins with you in seeking it. If you undertake |
| Tx:14.74 | understanding. It is as firm as is His faith in His Creator, and He | knows that faith in His Creator must encompass faith in His creation. |
| Tx:15.8 | to Heaven as the ego drives to hell. For the Holy Spirit, Who | knows only the present, uses it to undo the fear by which the ego |
| Tx:15.25 | There is no doubt about what your function is, for the Holy Spirit | knows what it is. There is no doubt about its magnitude, for it |
| Tx:15.47 | and understand what love means. If you would love unlike to God, Who | knows no special love, how can you understand it? To believe that |
| Tx:15.49 | The Holy Spirit | knows no one is special. Yet He also perceives that you have made |
| Tx:15.52 | and although this is not so in Heaven, the Holy Spirit | knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the holy |
| Tx:15.53 | God | knows you now. He remembers nothing, having always known you exactly |
| Tx:15.53 | you now. He remembers nothing, having always known you exactly as He | knows you now. The holy instant parallels His knowing by bringing all |
| Tx:15.79 | of your fear of forgiveness, which He perceives as clearly as He | knows forgiveness is release, He will teach you to remember that |
| Tx:15.82 | through Christ, where they become like to their Father. For Christ | knows of no separation from His Father, Who is His one relationship, |
| Tx:15.84 | The Holy Spirit | knows that it is not understandable, and yet He understands it |
| Tx:15.84 | function. Leave, then, what seems to you to be impossible to Him Who | knows it must be possible because it is the Will of God. And let Him |
| Tx:16.5 | True empathy is of Him Who | knows what it is. You will learn His interpretation of it if you let |
| Tx:16.13 | as the Holy Spirit bids you and have offered it to Him to use as He | knows how, His natural perception of your gift enables Him to |
| Tx:16.47 | on what completion is and how it is accomplished. The Holy Spirit | knows that completion lies first in union and then in the extension |
| Tx:16.66 | which taught you it was real and understand the Thought that really | knows what you are. You have allowed the Thought of your reality to |
| Tx:17.6 | then, to give all you have held outside the truth to Him who | knows the truth and in Whom all is brought to truth. [Salvation from |
| Tx:17.12 | world, the Son of God is lifted easily into his home. And there he | knows that he has always rested there in peace. Even salvation will |
| Tx:17.23 | is the only part of the relationship the Holy Spirit sees because He | knows that only this is true. You have made the relationship unreal |
| Tx:17.61 | ego believes the situation brings the experience. The Holy Spirit | knows that the situation is as the goal determines it and is |
| Tx:18.40 | of what is possible and remain unwilling to give place to One Who | knows. The whole belief in orders of difficulty in miracles is |
| Tx:18.78 | Love | knows no bodies and reaches to everything created like itself. Its |
| Tx:18.82 | love welcome separately. You could no more know God alone than He | knows you without your brother. But together you could no more be |
| Tx:19.27 | and would correct them all as God entrusted Him to do. But sin He | knows not, nor can He recognize mistakes which cannot be corrected. |
| Tx:19.30 | of the spiral, the line looks different. Yet in your mind is One Who | knows it is unbroken and forever changeless. This One can teach you |
| Tx:19.45 | pause of gladness in acknowledgment of the journey's end. For Heaven | knows you well, as you know Heaven. No illusions stand between you |
| Tx:19.80 | neither sin nor death, wills not that you be bound by them. He | knows of neither sin nor its results. The shrouded figures in the |
| Tx:19.107 | Son and let him rise again to glad remembrance of his Father, Who | knows no sin, no death, but only life eternal. |
| Tx:20.27 | that it is justified. There is no fear in perfect love because it | knows no sin and it must look on others as on itself. Looking with |
| Tx:20.28 | Power is of God, given by Him and reawakened by the Holy Spirit, Who | knows that as you give, you gain. He gives no power to sin, and |
| Tx:20.33 | except the part that has been given you to learn. For He Who | knows the rest will see to it without your help. But think not that |
| Tx:20.43 | that hides the gift hides him as well. He is the gift, and yet he | knows it not. No more do you. And yet, have faith that He Who sees |
| Tx:20.44 | watching over you in love and perfect confidence in what He sees. He | knows the Son of God and shares his Father's certainty the universe |
| Tx:20.44 | and know it rests in safety? He looks upon himself not as his Father | knows him. And yet it is impossible the confidence of God should be |
| Tx:21.11 | of the Son of God, whom you know well. Here is the sight of him who | knows his Father. Here is the memory of what you are—a part of |
| Tx:21.37 | they think their purpose is accomplished. Brothers, the Holy Spirit | knows that sacrifice brings nothing. He makes no bargains. And if you |
| Tx:21.44 | Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted by the part of your mind the ego | knows not of. No more did you. And yet this part with which you now |
| Tx:21.44 | with which you now identify is not afraid to look upon itself. It | knows no sin. How, otherwise, could it have been willing to see the |
| Tx:21.54 | your will must be included. Thus, there must be a part of you that | knows His Will and shares it. It is not meaningful to ask if what |
| Tx:21.54 | salvation is complete. And it must be complete because its Source | knows not of incompletion. Where would the answer be but in the |
| Tx:21.87 | for His creation. Sure in its vision as its Creator is in what He | knows, it looks on everything and sees it is the same. It sees not |
| Tx:22.12 | need no interpreter to you, for it was you who taught him what he | knows because you knew it. He could not come to anyone but you, never |
| Tx:22.52 | as certain of the outcome as He is sure of His Creator's love. He | knows this mad decision was made by one as dear to His Creator as |
| Tx:22.59 | and toward each other. And let the darkness be dispelled by Him Who | knows the light and lays it gently in each quiet smile of faith and |
| Tx:23.55 | is of the body—something it seems to offer or to own. No one who | knows that he has everything could seek for limitation, nor could he |
| Tx:24.2 | What God creates has no alternative. The truth arises from what He | knows. And your decisions come from your beliefs as certainly as all |
| Tx:24.2 | as certainly as all creation rose in His Mind because of what He | knows. |
| Tx:24.5 | attack? For who could hate someone whose Self is his and whom He | knows? Only the special could have enemies, for they are different |
| Tx:24.30 | behind. Salvation challenges not even death. And God Himself, Who | knows that death is not your will, must say, “Thy will be done” |
| Tx:24.40 | The Christ in you is very still. He looks on what He loves and | knows it as Himself. And thus does He rejoice at what He sees because |
| Tx:24.40 | it as Himself. And thus does He rejoice at what He sees because He | knows that it is one with Him and with His Father. Specialness, too, |
| Tx:24.45 | The Christ in you is very still. He | knows where you are going, and He leads you there in gentleness and |
| Tx:24.46 | Yet is He quiet, for He | knows that love is in you now and safely held in you by that same |
| Tx:24.51 | as lovingly as He conceived of you before the world began and as He | knows you still. God changes not His Mind about His Son with passing |
| Tx:25.9 | His purpose still is one with both the Father and the Son, He | knows the Will of God and what you really will. But this is |
| Tx:25.50 | from sinners and deceive with glitter and with guile. Yet each one | knows the cost of sin is death. And so it is. For sin is a request |
| Tx:25.65 | There is a kind of justice in salvation of which the world | knows nothing. To the world, justice and vengeance are the same, for |
| Tx:25.66 | by being paid, it matters not by whom. Can this be justice? God | knows not of this. But justice does He know and knows it well. For He |
| Tx:25.66 | this be justice? God knows not of this. But justice does He know and | knows it well. For He is wholly fair to everyone. |
| Tx:25.67 | Vengeance is alien to God's Mind because He | knows of justice. To be just is to be fair and not be vengeful. |
| Tx:25.68 | on sin's stability. And they perceive the “threat” of what God | knows as justice to be more destructive to themselves and to their |
| Tx:25.70 | cannot punish those who ask for punishment but have a Judge Who | knows that they are wholly innocent in truth. In justice, He is bound |
| Tx:25.72 | And every one that you accept brings joy to Him as well as you. He | knows that Heaven is richer made by each one you accept. And God |
| Tx:25.72 | you accept. And God rejoices as His Son receives what loving justice | knows to be his due. For love and justice are not different. Because |
| Tx:25.73 | the holiness that is in him, however much he recognize it not. God | knows of no injustice. He would not allow His Son be judged by those |
| Tx:25.77 | as God appointed for His holy Son. This is the only justice Heaven | knows, and all the Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special function |
| Tx:25.82 | on justice. Not as it is seen through this world's eyes, but as God | knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:26.8 | For neither did he make, and only one was given him by One Who | knows His gifts can never suffer sacrifice and loss. God's justice |
| Tx:26.17 | of feared. He cannot be unjust to anyone or anything because He | knows that everything that is belongs to Him and will forever be as |
| Tx:26.18 | Complexity is not of God. How could it be, when all He | knows is one? He knows of one creation, one reality, one truth, and |
| Tx:26.18 | is not of God. How could it be, when all He knows is one? He | knows of one creation, one reality, one truth, and but one Son. |
| Tx:27.14 | to see. Forgiveness is not pity which but seeks to pardon what it | knows to be the truth. Good cannot be returned for evil, for |
| Tx:27.20 | of the “fact” that your salvation sacrifices his. The Holy Spirit | knows your healing is the witness unto his and cannot be apart from |
| Tx:27.22 | [Correction is not your function. It belongs to One Who | knows of fairness, not of guilt. If you assume correction's role, you |
| Tx:27.28 | Correction must be left to One Who | knows correction and forgiveness are the same. With half a mind, this |
| Tx:27.53 | up its separate parts. God thanks you for your healing, for He | knows it is a gift of love unto His Son, and therefore is it given |
| Tx:27.57 | by other names which speak in other ways for its reality. He | knows it is not real. For nothing could contain what you believe it |
| Tx:27.57 | to the body's death He sends a witness to your life in Him Who | knows no death. Each miracle He brings is witness that the body is |
| Tx:27.62 | has no reason to be held responsible. He must be innocent because he | knows not what he does, but what is done to him. Yet is his own |
| Tx:27.89 | Bring, then, all forms of suffering to Him Who | knows that every one is like the rest. He sees no differences where |
| Tx:29.2 | of love and therefore must he be afraid of God. Certain it is he | knows not what love means. He fears to love and loves to hate, and so |
| Tx:29.16 | found yourself before. There is no change in immortality, and Heaven | knows it not. Yet here on earth it has a double purpose, for it can |
| Tx:29.63 | the penalty he laid upon himself within the dream he made. God | knows of justice, not of penalty. But in the dream of judgment, you |
| Tx:29.68 | deep within the Son of God. And when he hears this song again, he | knows he never heard it not. And where is time, when dreams of |
| Tx:30.33 | will; He speaks for you. In His divinity is but your own. And all He | knows is but your knowledge, saved for you that you may do your will |
| Tx:30.41 | complete is but God's Will, and this is given you by being His. God | knows not form. He cannot answer you in terms which have no meaning. |
| Tx:30.43 | Nothing that God | knows not exists. And what He knows exists forever, changelessly. For |
| Tx:30.43 | Nothing that God knows not exists. And what He | knows exists forever, changelessly. For thoughts endure as long as |
| Tx:30.46 | Who | knows the Father knows this light, for He is the eternal sky which |
| Tx:30.46 | Who knows the Father | knows this light, for He is the eternal sky which holds it safe, |
| Tx:30.47 | completely unaware of all the world that worships idols and that | knows not God. In perfect sureness of its changelessness and of its |
| Tx:30.47 | God holds of you has never left the mind of its Creator Whom it | knows, as its Creator knows that it is there. |
| Tx:30.47 | has never left the mind of its Creator Whom it knows, as its Creator | knows that it is there. |
| Tx:30.48 | reality a thing apart from you and in a world which your reality | knows nothing of? Outside you there is no eternal sky, no changeless |
| Tx:30.60 | Son and share His Fatherhood with him. No one outside of Heaven | knows how this can be, for understanding this is Heaven itself. Even |
| Tx:30.60 | Son prepared to be himself, and to remember that the Son of God | knows everything his Father understands and understands it perfectly |
| Tx:30.91 | established limits. What you ask is given you, but not of God Who | knows no limits. You have limited yourself. |
| Tx:31.9 | The Christ in you remembers God with all the certainty with which He | knows His love. But only if His Son is innocent can He be Love. For |
| Tx:31.97 | is done, complete and perfectly, and all creation recognizes You and | knows You as the only Source it has. Clear in Your Likeness does the |
| W1:66.2 | battle. The ego attacks and the Holy Spirit does not respond. He | knows what your function is. He knows that it is your happiness. |
| W1:66.2 | the Holy Spirit does not respond. He knows what your function is. He | knows that it is your happiness. |
| W1:78.8 | Then let us ask of Him Who | knows this Son of God in his reality and truth that we may look on |
| W1:94.5 | home in God to walk the world uncertainly. This is the Self which | knows no fear nor could conceive of loss or suffering or death. |
| W1:96.16 | Your Self | knows that you cannot fail today. Perhaps your mind remains uncertain |
| W1:97.6 | the healing gift they bring, and He will lay them everywhere He | knows they will be welcome. And they will increase in healing power |
| W1:98.11 | what you say is true. And you will have conviction then of Him Who | knows the function that you have on earth as well as Heaven. He will |
| W1:99.6 | it lays no faith in what is not created by the only Source it | knows. This is the thought whose function is to save by giving you |
| W1:107.10 | to Him as well. He is your brother and so like to you your Father | knows that you are both the same. It is your Self you ask to go with |
| W1:108.5 | holds for every kind of learning if it be directed by the One Who | knows the truth. |
| W1:121.5 | that its judgment is correct. It does not ask because it thinks it | knows. It does not question, certain it is right. |
| W1:125.3 | all the judgments which the world has laid upon the Son of God. It | knows him not. Today we will not listen to the world, but wait in |
| W1:125.5 | He does not cherish the illusions which you hold about yourself. He | knows His Son and wills that he remain as part of Him regardless of |
| W1:128.6 | it finds itself at home. It will be grateful to be free a while. It | knows where it belongs. But free its wings, and it will fly in |
| W1:136.12 | God | knows not of your plans to change His Will. The universe remains |
| W1:136.13 | Perhaps it sighs a little when you throw away its gifts, and yet it | knows with perfect certainty that what God wills for you must be |
| W1:138.1 | the way we make what we perceive and what we think is real. Creation | knows no opposite. But here is opposition part of being “real.” |
| W1:139.5 | no change in what you are. But you have split your mind into what | knows and does not know the truth. You are yourself. There is no |
| W1:139.5 | be a part of you that asks this question, for it asks of one who | knows the answer. Were it part of you, certainty would be impossible. |
| W1:139.9 | demonstrates the oneness of God's Son is unassailed by his belief he | knows not what he is. Today accept Atonement, not to change reality, |
| W1:140.6 | is related to the form it takes. It merely focuses on what it is and | knows that no illusion can be real. |
| W1:151.9 | thought created your reality. What can the body mean to Him Who | knows the glory of the Father and the Son? What whispers of the ego |
| W1:153.2 | and still a greater treachery within. The mind is now confused and | knows not where to turn to find escape from its imaginings. |
| W1:155.10 | and let truth lead the way. You know not where you go, but One Who | knows goes with you. Let Him lead you with the rest. |
| W1:160.8 | His certainty suffices. Who He | knows to be His Son belongs where He has set His Son forever. He has |
| W1:166.1 | All things are given you. God's trust in you is limitless. He | knows His Son. He gives without exception, holding nothing back that |
| W1:166.4 | Here is the only home he thinks he | knows. Here is the only safety he believes that he can find. Without |
| W1:167.12 | possible. No vision now is needed. For the wakened mind is one that | knows its Source, its Self, its holiness. |
| W1:R5.6 | This Self alone | knows love. This Self alone is perfectly consistent in Its thoughts, |
| W1:R5.6 | knows love. This Self alone is perfectly consistent in Its thoughts, | knows Its Creator, understands Itself, is perfect in Its knowledge |
| W1:R5.10 | the thoughts I brought to you from Him Who sees your bitter need and | knows the answer God has given Him. Together we review these |
| W1:181.10 | we look upon attests to our remembrance of the holy Self Which | knows no sin and never could conceive of anything without Its |
| W1:182.2 | No one but | knows whereof we speak. Yet some try to put by their suffering in |
| W1:182.4 | Yet there is a Child in you Who seeks His Father's house and | knows that He is alien here. This Childhood is eternal, with an |
| W1:182.5 | It is this Child in you your Father | knows as His own Son. It is this Child Who knows His Father. He |
| W1:182.5 | Child in you your Father knows as His own Son. It is this Child Who | knows His Father. He desires to go home so deeply, so unceasingly, |
| W1:186.2 | are suited perfectly to take the part assigned to us by One Who | knows us well. |
| W1:186.4 | for the function He will offer us. We will be certain only that He | knows our strengths, our wisdom, and our holiness. And if He deems us |
| W1:186.11 | There is no doubt of its validity. It comes from One Who | knows no error. And His Voice is certain of its messages. They will |
| W1:186.12 | to be right? The Voice that speaks for the Creator of all things Who | knows all things exactly as they are, or a distorted image of |
| W1:186.13 | from the known to the unknowing. He would comfort you, although He | knows no sorrow. He would make a restitution, though He is complete; |
| W1:186.13 | a restitution, though He is complete; a gift to you, although He | knows that you have everything already. He has thoughts which answer |
| W1:189.6 | is true in us and feel Its all-embracing tenderness, Its Love Which | knows us perfect as Itself, Its sight which is the gift Its Love |
| W1:189.8 | Is it not He Who | knows the way to you? You need not know the way to Him. Your part is |
| W1:189.9 | denied is surely there if it be true, and can be surely reached. God | knows His Son and knows the way to him. He does not need His Son to |
| W1:189.9 | if it be true, and can be surely reached. God knows His Son and | knows the way to him. He does not need His Son to show Him how to |
| W1:193.3 | God offers no forgiveness, for He | knows no sin is possible. And yet He let His holy law of Love be |
| W1:193.15 | and kept apart from healing. Let us give them all to Him Who | knows the way to look upon them so that they will disappear. Truth is |
| W1:198.13 | thought you made completely vanished from the mind which God forever | knows to be His only Son. |
| W2:222.1 | the Son He shines upon, who also shines on Him. How still is he who | knows the truth of what He speaks today! |
| W2:228.1 | My Father | knows my holiness. Shall I deny His knowledge and believe in what His |
| W2:228.1 | I take His Word for what I am since He is my Creator and the One Who | knows the true condition of His Son? |
| W2:242.1 | to lead my life alone must be but foolishness. For there is One Who | knows all that is best for me. And He is glad to make no choices for |
| W2:242.1 | give to Him, for I would not delay my coming home, and it is He Who | knows the way to Him. |
| W2:WIC.2 | your salvation, yet does He remain the Self Who, like His Father, | knows no sin. |
| W2:277.1 | not slave to any laws of time. He is as You created him, because he | knows no laws except the Law of Love. |
| W2:299.1 | as His. Our will together understands it. And our will together | knows that it is so. |
| W2:324.2 | So let us follow One Who | knows the way. We need not tarry, and we cannot stray except an |
| W2:347.1 | You gave to me to judge for me. He sees what I behold, and yet He | knows the truth. He looks on pain, and yet He understands it is not |
| W2:349.2 | Our Father | knows our needs. He gives us grace to meet them all. And so we trust |
| W2:E.1 | all answers that you need for anything that seems to trouble you. He | knows the way to solve all problems and resolve all doubts. His |
| M:10.6 | despair and fear of death—all these have come of it. And now he | knows that these things need not be. Not one is true. For he has |
| M:16.7 | in the name of safety no longer interests him. For he is safe and | knows it to be so. He has a Guide Who will not fail. He need make no |
| M:24.5 | of the beginner. He need merely accept the idea that what he | knows is not necessarily all there is to learn. His journey has begun. |
| M:27.2 | Or if he waits, yet is the ending certain. Who loves such a god | knows not of love, because he has denied that life is real. Death has |
| M:29.4 | all power. The image you made of yourself has none. The Holy Spirit | knows the truth about you. The image you made does not. Yet despite |
| M:29.4 | despite its obvious and complete ignorance, this image assumes it | knows all things because you have given that belief to it. Such is |
| M:29.4 | of the world which was made to uphold it. But the Teacher Who | knows the truth has not forgotten it. His decisions bring benefit to |
| M:29.7 | your fear of harm, your dreams of danger and selected “wrongs.” God | knows but His Son, and as he was created, so he is. In confidence I |

| Tx:1.58 | Darkness is lack of light, as sin is | lack of love. It has no unique properties of its own. It is an |

| Tx:1.89 | it and believes in some way that he needs it. While the concept of | lack does not exist in the creation of God, it is very apparent in |
| Tx:1.89 | of man. It is, in fact, the essential difference. A need implies | lack by definition. It involves the recognition that you would be |
| Tx:1.91 | —that is, what he lacks. A sense of separation from God is the only | lack he really needs to correct. This sense of separation would never |
| Tx:1.92 | Unified need produces unified action, because it produces a | lack of ambivalence. The concept of a need hierarchy, a corollary to |
| Tx:1.103 | triumph, vengeance, self-debasement, and all kinds of expressions of | lack of love are often very clearly seen in the fantasies which |
| Tx:2.5 | is used inappropriately, it always implies that some emptiness or | lack exists and that it is in man's ability to put his own ideas |
| Tx:2.17 | In reality, you are perfectly unaffected by all expressions of | lack of love. These can be either from yourself and others or from |
| Tx:2.17 | Mental health is inner peace. It enables you to remain unshaken by | lack of love from without and capable through your own miracles of |
| Tx:2.17 | miracles of correcting the external conditions which proceed from | lack of love in others. |

| Tx:3.43 | even this is subject to degrees, a fact which clearly demonstrates a | lack of association with knowledge. The term “right-mindedness” is |
| Tx:3.52 | confused. When you make something, you make it out of a sense of | lack or need. Anything that is made is made for a specific purpose |
| Tx:3.52 | true generalizability. When you make something to fill a perceived | lack, which is obviously why you would want to make anything, you are |
| Tx:3.60 | as perception lasts, prayer has a place. Since perception rests on | lack, those who perceive have not totally accepted the Atonement and |
| Tx:4.7 | order of learning, and unless they share their lessons, they will | lack conviction. A good teacher must believe in the ideas which he |
| Tx:4.54 | is meaningful only when the idea of “getting,” which implies a | lack, has already been accepted. That is why we made no distinction |

| Tx:5.64 | The ego does not perceive sin as a | lack of love. It perceives sin as a positive act of assault. This is |
| Tx:5.64 | to the ego's survival, because as soon as you regard sin as a | lack you will automatically attempt to remedy the situation. And you |
| Tx:5.94 | you are not wholly joyous it is because you have reacted with a | lack of love to some Soul which God created. Perceiving this as |
| Tx:6.56 | God does not teach. To teach is to imply a | lack, which God knows is not there. God is not conflicted. Teaching |
| Tx:6.60 | itemizes errors because He does not frighten children, and those who | lack wisdom are children. Yet He always answers their call, and His |
| Tx:6.80 | it is clearly not the final one. It is clear at this point that the | lack of order of difficulty in miracles has not yet been accepted, |
| Tx:7.72 | This is the law of God, and it has no exceptions. What you deny you | lack, not because it is lacking, but because you have denied it in |
| Tx:7.110 | to the Kingdom. There are no exceptions to this lesson, because the | lack of exceptions is the lesson. Every Son who returns to the |
| Tx:9.4 | you perceive. This cannot be correction. Yet it is more than merely | lack of correction for him. It is the giving up of correction in |

| Tx:9.44 | is always associated with unwillingness to know and produces a total | lack of knowledge simply because knowledge is total. Not to question |
| Tx:9.51 | reality literally drives the ego from your mind because of complete | lack of investment in it. Grandeur is totally without illusions, and |
| Tx:9.69 | Yet to give up the dissociation of reality brings more than merely | lack of fear. In this decision lie joy and peace and the glory of |
| Tx:10.89 | minds of children who do not understand reality. It is only their | lack of understanding which frightens them, and when they learn to |

| Tx:14.48 | of them as possible at all. What is more difficult to grasp is the | lack of order of difficulty which stamps the miracle as something |
| Tx:14.48 | From the world's viewpoint, this is impossible. You have experienced | lack of competition among your thoughts, which, even though they may |

| Tx:14.54 | chaotic. For form is not enough for meaning, and the underlying | lack of content makes a cohesive system impossible. Separation |
| Tx:14.54 | together in searching for truth, the ego can no longer defend its | lack of content. The fact of union tells them it is not true. |
| Tx:15.50 | as without love, you could not have judged them so like you in | lack. |
| Tx:16.14 | You think your | lack of understanding is a loss to you, and so you are unwilling to |

| Tx:17.3 | them only because you would keep them from truth. Very simply, your | lack of faith in the power that heals all pain arises from your wish |
| Tx:17.11 | alive with beauty, and what seemed ugly in the darkness of your | lack of reason is suddenly released to loveliness. Not even what the |
| Tx:17.53 | of the situation in which you find yourselves. And by this | lack of thanks and gratitude, you make yourselves unable to express |
| Tx:17.64 | substitutes for aspects of the situation are the witnesses to your | lack of faith. They demonstrate that you did not believe that the |
| Tx:17.64 | and the problem were in the same place. The problem was the | lack of faith, and it is this you demonstrate when you remove it from |
| Tx:17.66 | about the situation, which then becomes the justification for your | lack of faith. You will make this error, but be not at all concerned |
| Tx:17.66 | faithlessness used against truth will always destroy faith. If you | lack faith, ask that it be restored where it was lost and seek not to |

| Tx:17.78 | Fail him not now, for it has been given you to realize what your | lack of faith in him must mean to you. His salvation is your only |
| Tx:18.61 | space, the sudden experience of peace and joy, and, above all, the | lack of awareness of the body and of the questioning whether or not |
| Tx:18.78 | no bodies and reaches to everything created like itself. Its total | lack of limit is its meaning. It is completely impartial in its |
| Tx:20.5 | worthlessness to you, as his acceptance and delight acknowledges the | lack of value he places on himself. |
| Tx:20.65 | upon except through judgment. To see the body is the sign that you | lack vision and have denied the means the Holy Spirit offers you to |
| Tx:21.33 | It is impossible that the Son of God | lack faith, but he can choose where he would have it be. |
| Tx:21.33 | but he can choose where he would have it be. Faithlessness is not a | lack of faith, but faith in nothing. Faith given to illusions does |
| Tx:21.33 | of faith, but faith in nothing. Faith given to illusions does not | lack power, for by it does the Son of God believe that he is |
| Tx:22.3 | from a different premise. Each one has looked within and seen no | lack. Accepting his completion, he would extend it by joining with |
| Tx:22.5 | your sense of being disconnected, and your haunting fear of | lack of meaning in yourself arise? It is as though you wandered in |
| Tx:22.53 | must be perceived as sinless because the goal is sinlessness. The | lack of contradiction makes the soft transition from means to end as |
| Tx:23.37 | are judgments on what is not life, equal in their inaccuracy and | lack of meaning. Life not in Heaven is impossible, and what is not in |
| Tx:23.38 | fear because of the beliefs that they imply, not for their form. And | lack of faith in love in any form attests to chaos as reality. |
| Tx:24.12 | none. Specialness always makes comparisons. It is established by a | lack seen in another and maintained by searching for and keeping |
| Tx:24.34 | Specialness is a | lack of trust in anyone except yourself. Faith is invested in |
| Tx:24.40 | true for you. Nor is it possible that you can wish for something and | lack faith that it is so. Wishing makes real, as surely as does will |

| Tx:25.49 | needs your special function that His may be fulfilled. Think not you | lack a special value here. You wanted it, and it is given you. All |
| Tx:25.66 | Justice looks on all in the same way. It is not just that one should | lack for what another has. For that is vengeance in whatever form it |
| Tx:26.2 | of oneness. It is a picture of a complete disunity and total | lack of joining. Around each entity is built a wall so seeming solid |
| Tx:26.25 | justice can be reflected from beyond the gate behind which total | lack of limits lies. Nothing in boundless love could need |
| Tx:27.45 | come through you. The only thing that is required for a healing is a | lack of fear. The fearful are not healed and cannot heal. This does |
| Tx:27.54 | nothing, for they have a goal without a meaning. And they share the | lack of meaning which their purpose has. |
| Tx:28.60 | and His Son, like Him, need ask for nothing. For there is no | lack in him. An empty space, a little gap, would be a lack. And it is |
| Tx:28.60 | there is no lack in him. An empty space, a little gap, would be a | lack. And it is only there that he could want for something he has |
| Tx:29.8 | force the body to maintain. You do not fear its weakness, but its | lack of strength or weakness. Would you recognize that nothing stands |
| Tx:29.25 | illusions? They are dreams because they are not true. Their equal | lack of truth becomes the basis for the miracle, which means that you |
| Tx:29.46 | try to bring about your death. For you believe that you can suffer | lack, and lack is death. To sacrifice is to give up and thus to be |
| Tx:29.46 | about your death. For you believe that you can suffer lack, and | lack is death. To sacrifice is to give up and thus to be without and |
| Tx:30.25 | 7. This final step is but acknowledgment of | lack of opposition to be helped. It is a statement of an open mind, |
| Tx:30.77 | glad there cannot be some forms of sickness which the miracle must | lack the power to heal. |
| Tx:30.90 | of his perfect health, his perfect freedom from all forms of | lack, and safety from disaster of all kinds. The miracle is proof he |
| Tx:31.51 | lesson plans arranged in easy steps that though there be some | lack of ease at times and some distress, there is no shattering of |

| Tx:1.60 | on this point. God would be mocked if any of His creations | lacked holiness. The creation is whole, and the mark of wholeness is |
| Tx:5.49 | not to repeat the error, which is only part of healing. Your concept | lacked the idea of undoing it. What you were really advocating, then, |
| Tx:17.64 | it elsewhere. As a result, you do not see the problem. Had you not | lacked the faith it could be solved, the problem would be gone. And |

| Tx:1.90 | “separation,” which is a better term than the “fall,” nothing was | lacking. This meant that man had no needs at all. If he had not |
| Tx:1.91 | not distorted his perception of truth and thus perceived himself as | lacking. The concept of any sort of need hierarchy arose because, |
| Tx:5.57 | nothing. Everything you think that is not through the Holy Spirit is | lacking. |
| Tx:7.72 | and it has no exceptions. What you deny you lack, not because it is | lacking, but because you have denied it in another and are therefore |
| Tx:7.77 | share their delusions of scarcity, or you will perceive yourself as | lacking. |
| Tx:12.68 | it is a world of scarcity in which you find yourself because you are | lacking. Yet can you find yourself in such a world? Without the Holy |
| Tx:15.110 | faith in you to do all that you would accomplish. Nothing will be | lacking, and you will make complete and not destroy. Say and |
| Tx:17.53 | made enormous efforts to help Him do His work. And He has not been | lacking in appreciation for all you have done for Him. Nor does He |
| Tx:17.67 | Only what you have not given can be | lacking in any situation. But remember this: the goal of holiness was |
| Tx:30.88 | in danger and uncertainty. It is but your interpretations which are | lacking in stability, for they are not in line with what you really |
| W1:42.9 | that we are studying a unified thought system in which nothing is | lacking that is needed, and nothing is included that is contradictory |
| W1:102.2 | and does not exist. And everything you think it offers you is | lacking in existence like itself. You have been slave to nothing. Be |
| W1:154.12 | heard this said a hundred ways, a hundred times, and yet belief is | lacking still. But this is sure—until belief is given it, you will |

| M:19.4 | Him. God's Judgment is His justice. Onto this—a judgment wholly | lacking in condemnation, an evaluation based entirely on love—you |
lacks (16) | ||
| Tx:1.29 | The purpose of my part in the Atonement is the canceling out of all | lacks of love which men could not otherwise correct. The word “sin” |
| Tx:1.91 | in turn, depends on his perception of what he is—that is, what he | lacks. A sense of separation from God is the only lack he really |
| Tx:5.49 | feelings” has merit, but without the concept of the Atonement, it | lacks the healing potential it holds. You made the distinction in |
| Tx:5.57 | only the complete can think completely, and the thinking of God | lacks nothing. Everything you think that is not through the Holy |
| Tx:19.18 | not an error, for sin entails an arrogance which the idea of error | lacks. To sin would be to violate reality and to succeed. Sin is the |
| Tx:24.12 | and maintained by searching for and keeping clear in sight all | lacks it can perceive. This does it seek, and this it looks upon. And |
| Tx:26.40 | and then are doubted. You are like to one who still hallucinates but | lacks conviction in what he perceives. This is the borderland between |

| W1:44.3 | goal of mind training. It embodies precisely what the untrained mind | lacks. Yet the training must be accomplished if you are to see. |
| W1:102.1 | and to suspect it really makes no sense. It has not gone as yet but | lacks the roots that once secured it tightly to the dark and hidden |
| W1:135.10 | you have seen in it the faults, the weaknesses, the limits, and the | lacks from which you think the body must be saved. You will not see |

| Tx:4.36 | is obliterated. The ego cannot survive without judgment and is | laid aside accordingly. The mind then has only one direction in which |
| Tx:6.4 | it before because of its fearful connotations. The only emphasis we | laid upon it was that it was not a form of punishment. Nothing, |
| Tx:7.88 | sole responsibility for the ego's existence yourself, you will have | laid aside all anger and all attack, because they come from an |
| Tx:9.91 | The miracle is the act of a Son of God who has | laid aside all false gods and who calls on his brothers to do |
| Tx:11.17 | hiding your heads under the covers of the heavy blankets you have | laid upon yourselves. You are hiding your nightmares in the darkness |
| Tx:11.86 | most insane belief of all. And their bodies wither and gasp and are | laid in the ground and seem to be no more. Not one of them but has |
| Tx:13.39 | to remove all doubt and every trace of guilt that His dear Son has | laid upon himself. It is impossible that this mission fail. Nothing |
| Tx:13.91 | knows it. So will He teach you to remove the awful burden you have | laid upon yourself by loving not the Son of God and trying to teach |
| Tx:14.62 | your dark lessons must be brought willingly to truth and joyously | laid down by hands open to receive, not closed to take. Every dark |
| Tx:15.93 | the time of Christ. For in this liberating instant, no guilt is | laid upon the Son of God, and his unlimited power is thus restored to |
| Tx:17.76 | such is the gift of faith, freely given wherever faithlessness is | laid aside unused. And then the power of the Holy Spirit's purpose is |
| Tx:18.16 | them be, and what they do you order. No limit on substitution is | laid upon you. For a time, it seems as if the world were given you, |
| Tx:18.21 | your sight. Through it, the blessing which the Holy Spirit has | laid upon it will be extended. Think not that He has forgotten anyone |
| Tx:18.23 | its conditions. In your relationship, the Holy Spirit has gently | laid the real world—the world of happy dreams from which awaking is |
| Tx:18.93 | waters of forgiveness, and cleansed of every evil thought you had | laid upon it. Here there is no attack upon the Son of God, and you |
| Tx:18.93 | in the journey inward. Here are the dark and heavy garments of guilt | laid by and gently replaced by purity and love. |
| Tx:19.12 | the Son of God is seen already forgiven, free of all the guilt he | laid upon himself. Faith sees him only now because it looks not to |
| Tx:19.13 | to each other, for you stand at the same altar where grace was | laid for both of you. And be you healed by grace together, that you |

| Tx:19.54 | and softly brushed with beauty. The world contains no fear which you | laid not upon it. And none you cannot ask love's messengers to remove |
| Tx:19.81 | of your unrecognized dedication to death. The glitter of guilt you | laid upon the body would kill it. For what the ego loves, it kills |
| Tx:19.85 | of it. But free it from the merciless and unrelenting orders you | laid upon it and forgive it what you ordered it to do. In its |
| Tx:19.105 | and tortured mind. Help him to lift the heavy burden of sin you | laid upon him and he accepted as his own, and toss it lightly and |
| Tx:20.8 | you first upon the altar in your chosen home and see what you have | laid upon it to offer me. If it be thorns whose points gleam sharply |
| Tx:20.10 | vision is no idle gift, no plaything to be tossed about a while and | laid aside. Listen and hear this carefully, nor think it but a dream |
| Tx:20.13 | protection, and shining from the holy altar within him where you | laid the lilies of forgiveness. Let him be to you the savior from |
| Tx:20.63 | Who sees a brother's body has | laid a judgment on him and sees him not. He does not really see him |
| Tx:20.70 | with radiant purity and sparkling with the shining lilies you | laid upon it. What can you value more than this? Why do you think the |
| Tx:21.32 | to the real world and away from all illusions where your faith was | laid. This is His direction, the only one He ever sees. And when you |
| Tx:22.46 | and sacrificed. For sin is carved into a block out of your peace and | laid between you and its return. Yet how can peace be so fragmented? |
| Tx:22.56 | brings to others? And who would fail to recognize a gift he let be | laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you give the |
| Tx:24.56 | He is the mirror of yourself wherein you see the judgment you have | laid on both of you. The Christ in you beholds his holiness. Your |
| Tx:25.50 | And if the Holy Spirit can commute each sentence that you | laid upon yourself into a blessing, then it cannot be a sin. Sin is |
| Tx:25.66 | sin, but not the total cost. The rest is taken from another, to be | laid beside your little payment to “atone” for all that you would |
| Tx:26.19 | together—where conflicting values meet and all illusions are | laid down beside the truth where they are judged to be untrue. This |
| Tx:26.64 | In crucifixion is redemption | laid, for healing is not needed where there is no pain or suffering. |
| Tx:26.72 | The plans you make for safety all are | laid within the future, where you cannot plan. No purpose has been |

| Tx:2.58 | This is because the | last thing that can help the non-right-minded, or the sick, is an |
| Tx:2.105 | basic distinction leads us directly into the real meaning of the | Last Judgment. |
| Tx:2.106 | The | Last Judgment is one of the greatest threat concepts in man's |
| Tx:2.106 | Just as the separation occurred over many millions of years, the | Last Judgment will extend over a similarly long period and perhaps an |
| Tx:2.108 | The | Last Judgment is generally thought of as a procedure undertaken by |
| Tx:2.108 | is a concept in total opposition to right-mindedness. The aim of the | Last Judgment is to restore right-mindedness to man. |
| Tx:2.109 | The | Last Judgment might be called a process of right evaluation. It |
| Tx:2.110 | example of upside-down perception. Actually, if the meaning of the | Last Judgment is objectively examined, it is quite apparent that it |
| Tx:2.111 | No one who lives in fear is really alive. His own | last judgment cannot be directed toward himself because he is not his |
| Tx:3.34 | experience from the realm of knowledge. That is why visions do not | last. |

| Tx:4.3 | it, but dismiss it as accomplished. If you can accept it as your own | last foolish journey, you are also free to join my resurrection. |
| Tx:4.29 | conflicted, because all attitudes are ego-based. This will not | last. Be patient awhile and remember that the outcome is as certain |
| Tx:4.74 | the things you want to learn are chosen because their value will not | last. The ego thinks it is an advantage not to commit itself to |
| Tx:5.12 | that comes close enough to One-Mindedness that transfer to it is at | last possible. Transfer depends on common elements in the old |
| Tx:5.12 | helpful here to use the literal meaning of “carried” over since the | last step is taken by God. |
| Tx:6.5 | thus make it stronger. I also told you that the crucifixion was the | last foolish journey that the Sonship need take and that it should |
| Tx:6.61 | and your ego and your dreams are gone, you will know that you will | last forever. Many think this is accomplished through death, but |
| Tx:6.71 | from it. All good teachers realize that only fundamental change will | last, but they do not begin at that level. Strengthening motivation |
| Tx:6.71 | for change is their first and foremost goal. It is also their | last and final one. |
| Tx:7.6 | complete, because the Kingdom of God is whole. We have said that the | last step in the reawakening of knowledge is taken by God. This is |
| Tx:7.6 | into the timeless. He can therefore tell you something about this | last step, although this one you must know yourself, since by it you |
| Tx:7.7 | not teach, because His creations are changeless. He does nothing | last, because He created first and for always. It must be understood |
| Tx:7.73 | image of yourself as long as perception lasts. And perception will | last until the Sonship knows itself as whole. |
| Tx:7.74 | You made perception, and it must | last as long as you want it. Illusions are investments. They will |
| Tx:7.74 | last as long as you want it. Illusions are investments. They will | last as long as you value them. Values are relative, but they are |
| Tx:9.17 | lives on borrowed time, and its days are numbered. Do not fear the | Last Judgment, but welcome it and do not wait, for the ego's time is |
| Tx:9.67 | will be impossible, because you will want only truth, and being at | last your will, it will be yours. |
| Tx:10.4 | My brother, you are part of God and part of me. When you have at | last looked at the ego's foundation without shrinking, you will also |
| Tx:10.47 | What you must learn to recognize is that the | last thing the ego wishes you to realize is that you are afraid of |
| Tx:10.65 | you have removed the nails from the hands of God's Son and taken the | last thorn from his forehead. The love of God surrounds His Son, whom |
| Tx:10.90 | have made. And then your Father will lean down to you and take the | last step for you by raising you unto Himself. |
| Tx:11.34 | which you perceive is in your own mind and nowhere else, you will at | last have placed its source, and where it began it must end. For in |
| Tx:11.59 | He knows His Father's love for Him. When the Holy Spirit has at | last led you to Christ at the altar to His Father, perception fuses |
| Tx:11.84 | it was always so. Nothingness will become invisible, for you will at | last have seen truly. Redeemed perception is easily translated into |
| Tx:12.70 | And yet He knows that everything you need is temporary and will but | last until you step aside from all your needs and learn that all of |

| Tx:17.10 | you will barely have time to thank God for it. For God will take the | last step swiftly when you have reached the real world and have been |

| Tx:17.40 | And now by real comparison a transformation of both pictures can at | last occur. And each is given its rightful place, when both are seen |

| Tx:18.67 | and fight against the giving in to sin; when the light comes at | last into the mind given to contemplation; or when the goal is |
| Tx:19.39 | What need is there for seeing then? When God has taken the | last step Himself, the Holy Spirit will gather all your thanks and |
| Tx:19.56 | I am made welcome in the state of grace, which means you have at | last forgiven me. For I became the symbol of your sin, and so I had |
| Tx:19.91 | brush the veil aside and run to meet Him and to join with Him at | last. For this dark veil, which seems to make the face of Christ |
| Tx:21.47 | remembers Heaven, and now it sees that Heaven has come to earth at | last, from which the ego's rule has kept it out so long. Heaven has |

| Tx:21.76 | may be the enemy you yet may find. Here, then, would seem to be the | last remaining hope of finding sin and not accepting power. |
| Tx:21.78 | Consider carefully your answer to the | last question you have left unanswered still. And let your reason |
| Tx:21.82 | who look on sin are seeing the denial of the real world. Yet the | last question adds the wish for constancy in your desire to see the |
| Tx:21.83 | Could it be necessary they be asked so often, if they had? Until the | last decision has been made, the answer is both “yes” and “no.” For |

| W1:70.7 | ready for two longer practice periods today, each of which should | last some ten to 15 minutes. We will, however, still let you decide |
| W1:75.4 | Today the real world rises before us in gladness, to be seen at | last. Sight is given us, now that the light has come. |

| W1:R3.1 | Our third review begins today. We will review two of the | last 20 ideas each day until we have reviewed them all. We will |
| W1:R3.8 | the first five minutes of the day to your review and also give the | last five minutes of your waking day to it. If this cannot be done, |
| W1:121.1 | all questions answered; here the end of all uncertainty ensured at | last. |
| W1:129.4 | Yet even they will be exchanged at | last for what we cannot speak of, for you go from there to where |
| W1:129.5 | near are you when you exchange it for the world you want. Now is the | last step certain; now you stand an instant's space away from |
| W1:129.11 | do we understand there is no loss, for we have seen its opposite at | last, and we are grateful that the choice is made. Remember your |
| W1:132.1 | is raised to question that the hope of freedom comes to him at | last. |
| W1:133.7 | First, if you choose a thing that will not | last forever, what you chose is valueless. A temporary value is |
| W1:135.25 | unanswered yet in need of answering until the Answer comes to you at | last. |
| W1:138.12 | choice that we have made each hour in between. And now we give the | last five minutes of our waking day to the decision with which we |

| W1:151.17 | Heaven has corrected and made pure. Now has our ministry begun at | last, to carry round the world the joyous news that truth has no |
| W1:153.14 | So is the story ended. Let this day bring the | last chapter closer to the world that everyone may learn the tales he |

| W1:154.3 | ability to hear One Voice Which is His own that you become aware at | last there is One Voice in you. And that One Voice appoints your |
| W1:154.11 | to bring us where He wills, that those who wait in misery may be at | last delivered. And He needs our will united with His own, that we |
| W1:161.5 | be the body that we feel limits our freedom, makes us suffer, and at | last puts out our life. Yet bodies are but symbols of a concrete form |
| W1:166.9 | fear has come upon you now, and justice has caught up with you at | last. Christ's hand has touched your shoulder, and you feel that you |
| W1:170.12 | The choice you make today is certain. For you look for the | last time upon this bit of carven stone you made and call it god no |
| W1:170.13 | and your attributes, given by your Creator, are restored to you at | last. The Call of God is heard and answered. Now has fear made way |
| W1:R5.10 | and kept unchanged by time, immaculate and safe, as it will be at | last, when time is done. |
| W1:182.12 | And now the way is open, and the journey has an end in sight at | last. Be still a moment and go home with Him, and be at peace a while. |
| W1:190.6 | a hospital for pain, a sickly place where living things must come at | last to die? |
| W1:190.9 | into the quiet place where Heaven's peace holds all things still at | last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and of fear. Let no attack |
| W1:191.10 | see the world as dark and sinful when God's Son has come again at | last to set it free? |
| W1:193.20 | Heaven's gate and brings the Love of God the Father down to earth at | last, to raise it up to Heaven. God will take this final step |
| W1:195.7 | direct them to the peace that we would find, the way is opening at | last to us. An ancient door is swinging free again; a long forgotten |
| W1:195.8 | more remains as obstacles to peace? The fear of God is now undone at | last, and we forgive without comparing. Thus we cannot choose to |
| W1:196.11 | on plotting punishment for you until the time when it can kill at | last. Yet in this instant is the time as well in which salvation |
| W1:198.6 | of Heaven, for these are the words in which all will merge as one at | last. And as this one will fade away, the Word of God will come to |
| W1:198.12 | beliefs forgotten with it, as the face of Christ appears unveiled at | last in this one dream. This is the gift the Holy Spirit holds for |
| W1:200.2 | This is the final point to which each one must come at | last, to lay aside all hope of finding happiness where there is none, |
| W1:200.10 | serving for an instant longer now. Peace is already recognized at | last, and you can feel its soft embrace surround your heart and mind |

| W1:R6.3 | These practice sessions, like our | last review, are centered round a central theme with which we start |
| W2:I.7 | that is, can fail in nothing. In this certainty, we undertake these | last few steps to You and rest in confidence upon Your Love, Which |
| W2:227.2 | sin and clad in holiness, with his right mind restored to him at | last. |
| W2:WS.1 | is a promise made by God that you would find your way to Him at | last. It cannot but be kept. It guarantees that time will have an |
| W2:241.2 | We have forgiven one another now, and so we come at | last to You again. Father, Your Son, who never left, returns to |
| W2:250.2 | him, so I see myself. Today I would see truly that this day I may at | last identify with him. |
| W2:251.1 | I could need. Now have I everything that I could want. And now at | last I find myself at peace. |
| W2:256.1 | goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds return to Him at | last. |
| W2:260.2 | is our Source remembered, and therein we find our true Identity at | last. Holy indeed are we because our Source can know no sin. And we |
| W2:WIC.3 | before His glory and reveal your holy Self, the Christ, to you at | last. |
| W2:WIC.5 | now is over and the goal of the Atonement has been reached at | last? So therefore let us seek to find Christ's face and look on |
| W2:290.1 | my present happiness is all I see. Eyes that begin to open see at | last. And I would have Christ's vision come to me this very day. What |
| W2:293.1 | in reflection of its holy light, and I perceive a world forgiven at | last. |
| W2:298.1 | to be accepted without fear. And thus am I restored to my reality at | last. All that intruded on my holy sight forgiveness takes away. And |
| W2:WISC.2 | it shines on everyone as one. And thus is oneness recognized at | last. |
| W2:WISC.3 | ends the lessons which the Holy Spirit teaches, making way for the | Last Judgment, in which learning ends in one last summary that will |

| W2:302.1 | Father, our eyes are opening at | last. Your holy world awaits us, as our sight is finally restored and |
| W2:WILJ.3 | You who believed that God's | Last Judgment would condemn the world to hell along with you, accept |
| W2:321.1 | Voice directs me. And the way to You is opening and clear to me at | last. Father, my freedom is in You alone. Father, it is my will that |
| W2:327.2 | conviction comes, and surety of Your abiding Love is gained at | last. |

| W2:338.1 | to all the world. For in this single thought is everyone released at | last from fear. Now he has learned that no one frightens him and |
| W2:342.1 | it is. Let me remember that I am Your Son, and opening the door at | last, forget illusions in the blazing light of truth, as memory of |
| M:4.23 | The centrality of open-mindedness, perhaps the | last of the attributes the teacher of God acquires, is easily |

| Tx:7.14 | is mandatory, because learning is essential. This form of the | law clearly implies that you will learn what you are from what you |
| Tx:7.14 | of being, know that what you project you are. That form of the | law is not adapted at all, being the law of creation. God Himself |
| Tx:7.14 | you are. That form of the law is not adapted at all, being the | law of creation. God Himself created the law by creating by it. And |
| Tx:7.14 | adapted at all, being the law of creation. God Himself created the | law by creating by it. And His Sons, who create like Him, follow it |
| Tx:7.16 | His message is always the same, and only the meaning matters. God's | law of Creation in perfect form does not involve the use of truth to |
| Tx:7.16 | to convince His Sons of truth. The extension of truth, which is the | law of the Kingdom, rests only on the knowledge of what truth is. |
| Tx:7.53 | You can appreciate the Sonship only as one. This is part of the | Law of Creation and therefore governs all thought. |
| Tx:7.71 | That is the negative side of the | law as it operates in this world. Yet denial is a defense, and so it |
| Tx:7.71 | will be used for attack, but in the service of the Holy Spirit, [the | law becomes as beneficent as all of the laws of God. Stated |
| Tx:7.71 | as beneficent as all of the laws of God. Stated positively,] the | law requires you to recognize only part of reality to appreciate all |
| Tx:7.72 | There is no way for you to have it except by giving it. This is the | law of God, and it has no exceptions. What you deny you lack, not |
| Tx:7.82 | without projection there can be no love. Projection is a fundamental | law of the mind and therefore one which always operates. It is the |
| Tx:7.82 | law of the mind and therefore one which always operates. It is the | law by which you create and were created. It is the law which unifies |
| Tx:7.82 | It is the law by which you create and were created. It is the | law which unifies the Kingdom and keeps it in the Mind of God. To the |
| Tx:7.82 | unifies the Kingdom and keeps it in the Mind of God. To the ego, the | law is perceived as a way of getting rid of something it does not |
| Tx:7.82 | it does not want. To the Holy Spirit, it is the fundamental | law of sharing by which you give what you value in order to keep it |
| Tx:7.83 | Projection, to the Holy Spirit, is the | law of extension. To the ego, it is the law of deprivation. It |
| Tx:7.83 | to the Holy Spirit, is the law of extension. To the ego, it is the | law of deprivation. It therefore produces abundance or scarcity, |
| Tx:8.102 | you deny love, you will not know it because your cooperation is the | law of its being. You cannot change laws you did not make, and the |
| Tx:9.64 | is impossible. But remember that it is as impossible for God. The | law of creation is that you love your creations as yourself because |

| Tx:11.63 | you to do is clearly not of this world, for miracles violate every | law of reality as this world judges it. Every law of time and space, |
| Tx:11.63 | miracles violate every law of reality as this world judges it. Every | law of time and space, of magnitude and mass, of prediction and |
| Tx:11.67 | you, but it is not up to you whether to project, for projection is a | law of mind. Perception is projection, and you look in before you |
| Tx:12.68 | The ego wants to have things for salvation, for possession is its | law. Possession for its own sake is the ego's fundamental creed, a |
| Tx:13.11 | they will condemn, linking the future to the past as is the ego's | law. Fidelity unto this law lets no light in, for it demands fidelity |
| Tx:13.11 | the future to the past as is the ego's law. Fidelity unto this | law lets no light in, for it demands fidelity to darkness and forbids |
| Tx:14.72 | can be found alone. Each brings the other with it, for it is the | law of God they be not separate. They are cause and effect, each to |
| Tx:23.20 | The first chaotic | law is that the truth is different for everyone. Like all these |
| Tx:23.22 | The second | law of chaos, dear indeed to every worshiper of sin, is that each one |
| Tx:23.27 | The ego values only what it takes. This leads to the fourth | law of chaos, which, if the others are accepted, must be true. This |
| Tx:23.27 | chaos, which, if the others are accepted, must be true. This seeming | law is the belief you have what you have taken. By this, another's |
| Tx:23.34 | where only shadows play the major roles, it seems most powerful. No | law of chaos could compel belief but for the emphasis on form and |
| Tx:24.53 | it is. Let not his specialness obscure the truth in him, for not one | law of death you bind him to will you escape. And not one sin you see |
| Tx:24.62 | world defend the specialness he wants to be the truth! His wish is | law unto him, and he obeys. Nothing his specialness demands does he |
| Tx:25.23 | be justified. This is in strict accord with vision's fundamental | law: you see what you believe is there, and you believe it there |
| Tx:25.23 | believe it there because you want it there. Perception has no other | law than this. The rest but stems from this, to hold it up and offer |
| Tx:25.23 | This is perception's form adapted to this world of God's more basic | law that love creates itself and nothing but itself. |
| Tx:25.25 | rests on choosing; knowledge does not. Knowledge has but one | law because it has but one Creator. But this world has two who made |
| Tx:25.26 | some link that kept it still within the laws of God; not as the | law itself upholds the universe as God created it, but in some form |
| Tx:25.33 | Perception's basic | law could thus be said, “You will rejoice at what you see because you |
| Tx:25.33 | to be the bringers of rejoicing and of joy. Even in Heaven does this | law obtain. The Son of God creates to bring him joy, sharing his |
| Tx:25.86 | that you receive, you give. Each one becomes an illustration of the | law on which salvation rests—that justice must be done to all if |
| Tx:26.60 | be true because ideas leave not their source. Such is creation's | law—that each idea the mind conceives but adds to its abundance, |
| Tx:27.19 | as you, and you are healed because you wished him well. This is the | law the miracle obeys; that healing sees no specialness at all. It |
| Tx:27.54 | the body real. What shares a common purpose is the same. This is the | law of purpose, which unites all those who share in it within itself. |
| Tx:29.15 | who are confused is meaningless, and shift and change become the | law on which they predicate their lives. |

| Tx:31.54 | it by you. It also shows some glimmering of sight into perception's | law that what you see reflects the state of [the] perceiver's mind. |
| W1:20.5 | and you will. What you desire, you will see. Such is the real | law of cause and effect as it operates in the world. |

| W1:108.5 | salvation to all minds. For these are but some special cases of one | law which holds for every kind of learning if it be directed by the |
| W1:127.3 | There is no other principle which rules where love is not. Love is a | law without an opposite. Its wholeness is the power holding |
| W1:127.7 | use for time than this. For 15 minutes twice today escape from every | law in which you now believe. Open your mind and rest. The world that |
| W1:133.6 | Another kindly and related | law is that there is no compromise in what your choice must bring. It |
| W1:158.7 | Christ's vision has one | law. It does not look upon a body and mistake it for the Son whom God |
| W1:189.5 | choice is given you. But learn and do not let your mind forget this | law of seeing: you will look upon that which you feel within. If |
| W1:193.3 | for He knows no sin is possible. And yet He let His holy | law of Love be given form in which it could be offered to the world. |
| W1:193.3 | to the world. And He created One Who could perceive what form this | law should take, to be received by every mind which had forgotten it |
| W1:198.2 | and you are made a prisoner. Forgive and you are freed. Such is the | law that rules perception. It is not a law that knowledge |
| W1:198.2 | you are freed. Such is the law that rules perception. It is not a | law that knowledge understands, for freedom is a part of knowledge. |
| W2:277.1 | time. He is as You created him, because he knows no laws except the | Law of Love. |
| W2:WIM.2 | for it is given and received as one. And thus it illustrates the | law of truth the world does not obey because it fails entirely to |
| W2:344.1 | This is Your | law, my Father, not my own. I have not understood what giving means |
| W2:344.1 | my store with Heaven's treasures, which alone are real. Thus is the | law of love fulfilled. And thus Your Son arises and returns to You. |
| W2:345.1 | me, Your Son. And every one I give returns to me, reminding me the | law of love is universal. Even here it takes a form which can be |
| W2:346.1 | except Your Love. I would abide in You and know no laws except Your | law of Love. And I would find the peace which You created for Your |
| W2:349.1 | see and give to them the freedom that I seek. For thus do I obey the | law of love and give what I would find and make my own. It will be |
| W2:354.1 | me as Your Son, beyond the reach of time and wholly free of every | law but Yours. I have no self except the Christ in me. I have no |

| Tx:6.55 | everything God created is faithful to His laws. Fidelity to other | laws is also possible, however, not because the laws are true, but |
| Tx:6.55 | Fidelity to other laws is also possible, however, not because the | laws are true, but because you made them. What would be gained if God |
| Tx:6.63 | one mind is meaningful, but to be of one body is meaningless. By the | laws of mind, then, the body is meaningless. To the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:7.10 | it governs are very different from the thoughts in the Kingdom. | Laws must be adapted to circumstances if they are to maintain order. |
| Tx:7.11 | The outstanding characteristic of the | laws of mind as they operate in this world is that by obeying them— |
| Tx:7.11 | you can arrive at diametrically opposed results. This is because the | laws have adapted to the circumstances of this world, in which |
| Tx:7.11 | world, in which diametrically opposed outcomes are believed in. The | laws of mind govern thoughts, and you do respond to two conflicting |
| Tx:7.15 | Laws must be communicated if they are to be helpful. In effect, they | |

| Tx:7.33 | comes from the Voice for God, and certainty comes from the | laws of God. Healing does not come directly from God, Who knows His |

| Tx:7.34 | part of creation is of one order. This is God's Will and yours. The | laws of God establish this, and the Holy Spirit reminds you of it. |
| Tx:7.34 | Spirit reminds you of it. When you heal, you are remembering the | laws of God and forgetting the laws of the ego. We said before that |
| Tx:7.34 | you heal, you are remembering the laws of God and forgetting the | laws of the ego. We said before that forgetting is merely a way of |
| Tx:7.36 | without this belief. This perception is therefore in accord with the | laws of God, even in a state of mind which is out of accord with His. |
| Tx:7.37 | is a way of approaching knowledge by thinking in accordance with the | laws of God and recognizing their universality. Without this |
| Tx:7.37 | their universality. Without this recognition, you have made the | laws themselves meaningless to you. Yet the laws are not meaningless, |
| Tx:7.37 | you have made the laws themselves meaningless to you. Yet the | laws are not meaningless, since all meaning is contained by them and |
| Tx:7.38 | Seek ye first the Kingdom of Heaven, because that is where the | laws of God operate truly, and they can operate only truly since they |
| Tx:7.38 | operate truly, and they can operate only truly since they are the | laws of Truth. But seek this only because you can find nothing else. |
| Tx:7.46 | on, because it is inspired by His Voice and is in accord with His | laws. Yet if healing is consistence, it cannot be inconsistently |
| Tx:7.71 | of the Holy Spirit, [the law becomes as beneficent as all of the | laws of God. Stated positively,] the law requires you to recognize |
| Tx:7.84 | up and free yourself. The ego, using its own warped version of the | laws of God, utilizes the power of the mind only to defeat the mind's |
| Tx:7.87 | It is the distorted product of the misapplication of the | laws of God by distorted minds which are misusing their own power. |
| Tx:7.107 | The world goes against your nature, being out of accord with God's | laws. The world perceives orders of difficulty in everything. This is |
| Tx:8.2 | Who makes no bargains. It is merely the result of your misuse of His | laws on behalf of a will that is not His. Knowledge is His Will. If |
| Tx:8.25 | in all. His peace is complete, and you must be included in it. His | laws govern you, because they govern everything. You cannot exempt |
| Tx:8.25 | because they govern everything. You cannot exempt yourself from His | laws, although you can disobey them. Yet if you do, and only if you |
| Tx:8.102 | your eyes, you will not see because you are interfering with the | laws of seeing. If you deny love, you will not know it because your |

| Tx:8.102 | law of its being. You cannot change laws you did not make, and the | laws of happiness were created for you, not by you. |
| Tx:8.117 | much for little is to believe that you can bargain with God. God's | laws are always fair and perfectly consistent. By giving you receive. |

| Tx:9.64 | Everything that was created is therefore perfectly safe, because the | laws of God protect it by His Love. Any part of your mind that does |
| Tx:9.65 | happen at all. You do not think this mysterious, even though all the | laws of what you awakened to were violated while you slept. Is it not |
| Tx:9.68 | dissociated material is accepted, it ceases to be fearful, for the | laws of mind always hold. |
| Tx:9.80 | A whole mind is not idolatrous and does not know of conflicting | laws. I will heal you merely because I have only one message, and it |
| Tx:9.88 | God's | laws will keep your minds at peace, because peace is His Will, and |
| Tx:9.88 | will keep your minds at peace, because peace is His Will, and His | laws are established to uphold it. His are the laws of freedom, but |
| Tx:9.88 | is His Will, and His laws are established to uphold it. His are the | laws of freedom, but yours are the laws of bondage. Since freedom and |

| Tx:9.88 | laws of bondage. Since freedom and bondage are irreconcilable, their | laws cannot be understood together. The laws of God work only for |
| Tx:9.88 | are irreconcilable, their laws cannot be understood together. The | laws of God work only for your good, and there are no other laws |
| Tx:9.88 | The laws of God work only for your good, and there are no other | laws beside His. Everything else is merely lawless and therefore |
| Tx:9.88 | chaotic. Yet God Himself has protected everything He created by His | laws. Therefore, everything that is not under them does not exist. |
| Tx:9.89 | and accepting it of them. All this has never been. Nothing but the | laws of God has ever operated, and nothing except His Will will ever |
| Tx:9.89 | nothing except His Will will ever be. You were created through His | laws and by His Will, and the manner of your creation established you |
| Tx:9.90 | And if it is so for Him, it is so for you. His definitions are His | laws, for by them He established the universe as what it is. No false |
| Tx:10.8 | then, could you know your creations, having denied infinity? The | laws of the universe do not permit contradiction. What holds for God |
| Tx:10.32 | the Father without believing that the Father has denied him? God's | laws hold only for your protection, and they never hold in vain. What |
| Tx:10.40 | is obviously to recognize that what has no effects does not exist. | Laws do not operate in a vacuum, and what leads to nothing has not |
| Tx:10.54 | The ego's interpretation of the | laws of perception are, and would have to be, the exact opposite of |
| Tx:11.59 | have become so similar that they share the unification of the | laws of God. |
| Tx:11.86 | this is so. For this world is the symbol of punishment, and all the | laws which seem to govern it are the laws of death. Children are born |
| Tx:11.86 | of punishment, and all the laws which seem to govern it are the | laws of death. Children are born into it through pain and in pain. |
| Tx:12.56 | Awakening unto Christ is following the | laws of love of your free will and out of quiet recognition of the |
| Tx:12.57 | And yet the | laws of love are not suspended because you sleep. And you have |
| Tx:13.11 | for it demands fidelity to darkness and forbids awakening. The ego's | laws are strict, and breaches are severely punished. Therefore give |
| Tx:13.11 | breaches are severely punished. Therefore give no obedience to its | laws, for they are laws of punishment. And those who follow them |
| Tx:13.11 | punished. Therefore give no obedience to its laws, for they are | laws of punishment. And those who follow them believe that they are |
| Tx:13.11 | and so they must condemn. Between the future and the past, the | laws of God must intervene if you would free yourselves. Atonement |
| Tx:14.47 | unique function and is motivated by a unique Teacher, Who brings the | laws of another world to this one. The miracle is the one thing you |
| Tx:15.60 | can only give. And this is love, for this alone is natural under the | laws of God. |
| Tx:15.61 | In the holy instant, the | laws of God prevail, and only they have meaning. The laws of this |
| Tx:15.61 | instant, the laws of God prevail, and only they have meaning. The | laws of this world cease to hold any meaning at all. When the Son of |
| Tx:15.61 | cease to hold any meaning at all. When the Son of God accepts the | laws of God as what he gladly wills, it is impossible that he be |
| Tx:18.62 | calls to you to be yourself within its safe embrace. There are the | laws of limit lifted for you, to welcome you to openness of mind and |
| Tx:20.28 | you unless you give it the power to do so. For you give power as the | laws of this world interpret giving—as you give, you lose. It is |
| Tx:20.29 | as the Holy Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of the | laws of God in minds that have established other laws and given them |
| Tx:20.29 | reawakening of the laws of God in minds that have established other | laws and given them power to enforce what God created not. |
| Tx:20.30 | Your insane | laws were made to guarantee that you would make mistakes and give |
| Tx:20.30 | you see your own. For this you share. What God has given follows His | laws and His alone. Nor is it possible for those who follow them to |
| Tx:20.34 | they rest, the face of Christ shines on them, and they remember the | laws of God, forgetting all the rest and yearning only to have His |
| Tx:20.34 | laws of God, forgetting all the rest and yearning only to have His | laws perfectly fulfilled in them and all their brothers. Think you |
| Tx:20.37 | in him. And there he finds his function of restoring his Father's | laws to what was held outside them and finding what was lost. Only in |
| Tx:20.43 | Would you exchange this gift for any other? This gift returns the | laws of God to your remembrance. And merely by remembering them, the |
| Tx:20.43 | laws of God to your remembrance. And merely by remembering them, the | laws that held you prisoner to pain and death must be forgotten. This |
| Tx:20.71 | upon with vision. For this is not your sight, and brings with it the | laws beloved of Him Whose sight it is. |

| Tx:20.73 | right, bringing them gently within the kindly sway of Heaven's | laws. What if you recognized this world is an hallucination? What if |
| Tx:21.49 | world you see. It literally picks it out as the mind directs. The | laws of size and shape and brightness would hold, perhaps, if other |
| Tx:23.19 | of chaos can be brought to light, though never understood. Chaotic | laws are hardly meaningful and therefore out of reason's sphere. Yet |
| Tx:23.19 | purpose to make meaningless and to attack the truth. Here are the | laws that rule the world you made. And yet they govern nothing and |
| Tx:23.23 | has done both to himself and his Creator. The arrogance on which the | laws of chaos stand could not be more apparent than emerges here. |
| Tx:23.27 | that you can never take away save from yourself. Yet all the other | laws must lead to this. For enemies do not give willingly to one |
| Tx:23.31 | a world where meaning can be found, consider this: [These are the | laws on which your “sanity” appears to rest.] These are the |
| Tx:23.31 | feet seem solid. And it is here you look for meaning. These are the | laws you made for your salvation. They hold in place the substitute |
| Tx:23.32 | a kindness, hatred love and murder benediction, is the goal the | laws of chaos serve. These are the means by which the laws of God |
| Tx:23.32 | the goal the laws of chaos serve. These are the means by which the | laws of God appear to be reversed. Here do the laws of sin appear to |
| Tx:23.32 | means by which the laws of God appear to be reversed. Here do the | laws of sin appear to hold love captive and let sin go free. |
| Tx:23.33 | the goals of chaos, for by the great reversal, they appear to be the | laws of order. How could it not be so? Chaos is lawlessness and has |
| Tx:23.33 | of order. How could it not be so? Chaos is lawlessness and has no | laws. To be believed, its seeming laws must be perceived as real. |
| Tx:23.33 | Chaos is lawlessness and has no laws. To be believed, its seeming | laws must be perceived as real. Their goal of madness must be seen as |

| Tx:23.34 | And yet, how can it be that | laws like these can be believed? There is a strange device that makes |
| Tx:23.36 | maintain and think it true that you do not believe these senseless | laws nor act upon them. And when you look at what they say, they |

| Tx:25.24 | God's | laws do not obtain directly to a world perception rules, for such a |
| Tx:25.24 | created by the Mind to which perception has no meaning. Yet are His | laws reflected everywhere. Not that the world where this reflection |
| Tx:25.26 | and maintained without some link that kept it still within the | laws of God; not as the law itself upholds the universe as God |
| Tx:25.47 | Here, where the | laws of God do not prevail in perfect form, can he yet do one perfect |

| Tx:26.41 | The shadow voices do not change the | laws of time or of eternity. They come from what is past and gone and |

| Tx:30.52 | your safety. All illusions that you believe about yourself obey no | laws. They seem to dance a little while, according to the rules you |
| Tx:31.50 | concept of yourself, that you will choose to follow this world's | laws and never seek to go beyond its roads nor realize the way you |
| W1:38.1 | Your holiness reverses all the | laws of the world. It is beyond every restriction of time, space, |
| W1:49.1 | part of your mind that functions in the world and obeys the world's | laws. It is this part which is constantly distracted, disorganized, |
| W1:53.3 | rules a world which represents chaotic thinking, and chaos has no | laws. I cannot live in peace in such a world. I am grateful that this |
| W1:57.5 | the world as a place of freedom, I will realize that it reflects the | laws of God instead of the rules which I made up for it to obey. I |
| W1:76.1 | have seemed to you to be salvation. Each has imprisoned you with | laws as senseless as itself. You are not bound by them. Yet to |
| W1:76.1 | seek for it in things that have no meaning, you bind yourself to | laws that make no sense. Thus do you seek to prove salvation is where |
| W1:76.3 | recognition that you are not bound by all the strange and twisted | laws which you have set up to save you. You really think that you |
| W1:76.4 | It is insanity that thinks these things. You call them | laws and put them under different names in a long catalogue of |
| W1:76.5 | These are not | laws, but madness. The body is endangered by the mind that hurts |
| W1:76.6 | There are no | laws except the laws of God. This needs repeating over and over until |
| W1:76.6 | There are no laws except the | laws of God. This needs repeating over and over until you realize |
| W1:76.7 | The | laws of God can never be replaced. We will devote today to rejoicing |
| W1:76.7 | it is a truth which keeps us free forever. Magic imprisons, but the | laws of God set free. The light has come because there are no laws |
| W1:76.7 | the laws of God set free. The light has come because there are no | laws but His. |
| W1:76.8 | we have believed we must obey. These would include, for example, the | laws of nutrition, of immunization, of medication, and of the body's |
| W1:76.8 | protection in innumerable ways. Think further—you believe in the | laws of friendship, of “good” relationships, and reciprocity. |
| W1:76.9 | Perhaps you even think that there are | laws which set forth what is God's and what is yours. Many |
| W1:76.10 | There are no | laws but God's. Dismiss all foolish magical beliefs today and hold |
| W1:76.10 | You will be listening to One Who says there is no loss under the | laws of God. Payment is neither given nor received. Exchange cannot |
| W1:76.10 | are no substitutes, and nothing is replaced by something else. God's | laws forever give and never take. |
| W1:76.11 | Hear Him Who tells you this, and realize how foolish are the | laws you thought upheld the world you thought you saw. Then listen |
| W1:76.12 | will speak of this to us, as well as of the joys of Heaven which His | laws keep limitless forever. We will repeat today's idea until we |
| W1:76.12 | today's idea until we have listened and understood there are no | laws but God's. Then we will tell ourselves as a dedication with |
| W1:76.13 | I am under no | laws but God's. |
| W1:76.14 | to any temptation to experience ourselves as subject to other | laws throughout the day. It is our statement of freedom from all |
| W1:77.2 | Father is. It was ensured in your creation and guaranteed by the | laws of God. |
| W1:77.4 | you are upholding the rights of everyone. Miracles do not obey the | laws of this world. They merely follow from the laws of God. |
| W1:77.4 | do not obey the laws of this world. They merely follow from the | laws of God. |
| W1:88.5 | [76] I am under no | laws but God's. Here is the perfect statement of my freedom. I am |
| W1:88.5 | God's. Here is the perfect statement of my freedom. I am under no | laws but God's. I am constantly tempted to make up other laws and |
| W1:88.5 | am under no laws but God's. I am constantly tempted to make up other | laws and give them power over me. I suffer only because of my belief |
| W1:88.5 | real effect on me at all. I am perfectly free of the effects of all | laws save God's. And His are the laws of freedom. |
| W1:88.5 | free of the effects of all laws save God's. And His are the | laws of freedom. |
| W1:88.7 | My perception of this shows me I believe in | laws which do not exist. I see only the laws of God at work in this. |
| W1:88.7 | this shows me I believe in laws which do not exist. I see only the | laws of God at work in this. Let me allow God's laws to work in this |
| W1:88.7 | I see only the laws of God at work in this. Let me allow God's | laws to work in this and not my own. |
| W1:89.2 | to miracles. I am entitled to miracles because I am under no | laws but God's. His laws release me from all grievances and replace |
| W1:89.2 | I am entitled to miracles because I am under no laws but God's. His | laws release me from all grievances and replace them with miracles. |
| W1:89.2 | that hide the miracles beyond. Now I would accept only what the | laws of God entitle me to have that I may use it on behalf of the |
| W1:105.7 | denied by you the peace and joy that are their right under the equal | laws of God. Here you denied them to yourself. And here you must |
| W1:127.5 | No | laws the world obeys can help you grasp love's meaning. What the |
| W1:127.6 | Today we practice making free our minds of all the | laws you think you must obey, of all the limits under which you live, |
| W1:133.4 | The | laws which govern choice you cannot make, no more than you can make |
| W1:133.4 | choosing you can do; indeed you must. But it is wise to learn the | laws you set in motion when you choose and what alternatives you |
| W1:134.2 | pardon this is meaningless. All truth belongs to Him, reflects His | laws and radiates His Love. Does this need pardon? How can you |
| W1:134.13 | no thought in all the world which leads to any understanding of the | laws it follows nor the thought which it reflects. It is as alien to |
| W1:136.11 | truth turned into lies, and all the universe made slave to | laws which your defenses would impose on it. Yet who believes |
| W1:136.12 | your plans to change His Will. The universe remains unheeding of the | laws by which you thought to govern it. And Heaven has not bowed to |
| W1:136.20 | limited by time, by weather or fatigue, by food and drink, or any | laws you made it serve before. You need do nothing now to make it |
| W1:137.2 | wall of sickened flesh which it cannot surmount. The world obeys the | laws that sickness serves, but healing operates apart from them. |
| W1:137.7 | truth. When sickness has been seen to disappear in spite of all the | laws that hold it cannot but be real, then questions have been |
| W1:137.7 | it cannot but be real, then questions have been answered. And the | laws can be no longer cherished nor obeyed. |
| W1:137.8 | the truth. Healing is shared. And by this attribute, it proves that | laws unlike the ones which hold that sickness is inevitable are more |
| W1:137.9 | can be yours, how little practice you need undertake to let His | laws replace the ones you made to hold yourself a prisoner to death. |
| W1:154.4 | apart salvation from the world. It is this Voice which speaks of | laws the world does not obey, which promises salvation from all sin, |
| W1:157.3 | enough along the way to alter time sufficiently to rise above its | laws and walk into eternity a while. This you will learn to do |
| W1:159.1 | a thing requires first you have it in your own possession. Here the | laws of Heaven and the world agree. But here they also separate. The |
| W1:199.2 | serves the Holy Spirit is unlimited forever, in all ways, beyond the | laws of time and space, unbound by any preconceptions, and with |
| W1:204.1 | Name reminds me that I am His Son, not slave to time, unbound by | laws which rule the world of sick illusions, free in God, forever and |
| W2:277.1 | Son is free, my Father. Let me not imagine I have bound him with the | laws I made to rule the body. He is not subject to any laws I made by |
| W2:277.1 | him with the laws I made to rule the body. He is not subject to any | laws I made by which I try to make the body more secure. He is not |
| W2:277.1 | He is not changed by what is changeable. He is not slave to any | laws of time. He is as You created him, because he knows no laws |
| W2:277.1 | to any laws of time. He is as You created him, because he knows no | laws except the Law of Love. |
| W2:277.2 | Let us not worship idols nor believe in any | laws idolatry would make to hide the freedom of the Son of God. He is |
| W2:278.1 | Father prisoner with me. And this do I believe when I maintain the | laws the world obeys must I obey—the frailties and the sins which I |
| W2:329.1 | Father, I thought I wandered from Your Will, defied it, broke its | laws, and interposed a second will more powerful than Yours. Yet what |
| W2:WIE.4 | is not to see the ego and its thoughts, its works, its acts, its | laws and its beliefs, its dreams, its hopes, its plans for its |
| W2:346.1 | and so I will not look upon them. What I seek today transcends all | laws of time and things perceived in time. I would forget all things |
| W2:346.1 | forget all things except Your Love. I would abide in You and know no | laws except Your law of Love. And I would find the peace which You |
| M:4.3 | in the world, because they have learned it is not governed by the | laws the world made up. It is governed by a Power Which is in them |
| M:18.4 | taken from its throne by your mistakes. God reigns forever, and His | laws alone prevail upon you and upon the world. His love remains the |

| Tx:11.5 | for his own good. What can this be but projection? For his errors | lay in the minds of his interpreters, for which they punished him. |

| Tx:11.22 | aside the obstacle to real vision without looking upon it, for to | lay aside means to judge against. If you will look, the Holy Spirit |

| Tx:13.15 | Lay not his guilt upon him, for his guilt lies in his secret that he | |
| Tx:13.22 | In any union with a brother in which you seek to | lay your guilt upon him or share it with him or perceive his own, you |
| Tx:13.78 | as you made the wrong decision in ever thinking that salvation | lay in you alone. Salvation is of Him to Whom God gave it for you. He |
| Tx:14.33 | valued, He will replace with the one promise given unto Him to | lay upon the altar to your Father and His Son. No altar stands to God |
| Tx:14.37 | with its One Creator. And Heaven remains the Will of God for you. | Lay no gifts other than this upon your altars, for nothing can |
| Tx:14.38 | apart from it? The making of time to take the place of timelessness | lay in the decision to be not as you were. Thus, truth was made past, |
| Tx:14.46 | holiness as surely as the reflection of holiness calls everyone to | lay all guilt aside. Reflect the peace of Heaven here and bring this |
| Tx:14.56 | hide from the Holy Spirit is nothing. Every interpretation you would | lay upon a brother is senseless. Let the Holy Spirit show him to you |
| Tx:15.34 | side of His host, for it protects only the peace in which He dwells. | Lay not littleness before His holy altar, which rises above the stars |
| Tx:16.71 | think the past deprived you of? The past is nothing. Do not seek to | lay the blame for deprivation on it, for the past is gone. You cannot |
| Tx:18.20 | source of joy and freedom. It will not be for you alone, for therein | lay its misery. As its unholiness kept it a thing apart, its holiness |
| Tx:19.14 | stand before the altar God has raised unto Himself and both of you. | Lay faithlessness aside and come to it together. There will you see |
| Tx:19.39 | gather all your thanks and gratitude which you have offered Him and | lay them gently before His Creator in the name of His most holy Son. |
| Tx:19.78 | to his funeral and hear him laugh at death. The sentence sin would | lay upon him he can escape through your forgiveness. |
| Tx:19.85 | Under the dusty edge of its distorted world, the ego would | lay the Son of God, slain by its orders, proof in his decay that God |
| Tx:20.7 | placed upon it and take it for their own. Here is the value that you | lay upon your brother and on yourself. Here is your gift to both; |
| Tx:20.53 | to the holy instant which offers you peace and understanding? Then | lay aside the body and quietly transcend it, rising to welcome what |
| Tx:21.65 | away from madness toward the goal of truth. And here you will | lay down the burden of denying truth. This is the burden that is |
| Tx:23.4 | attraction. Would you, for all these meaningless distractions, | lay Heaven aside? Your destiny and purpose are far beyond them in the |
| Tx:24.51 | you in all the universe. Nothing that God created has He failed to | lay before you lovingly as yours forever. And no thought within His |
| Tx:25.67 | demanded of the ones obsessed with the idea of punishment that they | lay it aside unaided and perceive it is not true? It is extremely |
| Tx:26.8 | upon His Son and keeps him safe from all injustices the world would | lay upon him. Could it be that you could make his sins reality and |
| Tx:26.28 | Forgiveness brings no little miracles to | lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God Himself comes to |
| Tx:26.65 | all His Son's mistakes and set him free. But it is arrogant to | lay aside the power that He gave and choose a little senseless wish |
| Tx:26.89 | and from yourself. And each unfairness that the world appears to | lay upon you, you have laid on it by rendering it purposeless, |
| Tx:28.10 | You who have sought to | lay a judgment on your own Creator cannot understand it is not He Who |
| Tx:29.34 | empty, they received instead a brother's hand in which completion | lay. |
| Tx:29.35 | of Himself, would you attack him with the hands of hate? Who would | lay bloody hands on Heaven itself and hope to find its peace? Your |
| Tx:31.93 | Deny me not the little gift I ask when in exchange I | lay before your feet the peace of God and power to bring this peace |
| W1:3.1 | things you see may have emotionally-charged meaning for you. Try to | lay such feelings aside, and merely use these things exactly as you |
| W1:70.7 | again be well to decide in advance when would be a good time to | lay aside for each of them and adhere to your own decision as closely |
| W1:72.11 | attacking what we do not recognize. Now we are going to try to | lay judgment aside and ask what God's plan for us is: |
| W1:78.2 | stop before it sees. We will not wait before the shield of hate, but | lay it down and gently lift our eyes in silence to behold the Son of |
| W1:78.3 | He waits for you behind your grievances, and as you | lay them down, he will appear in shining light where each one stood |
| W1:78.5 | select one person you have used as target for your grievances and | lay the grievances aside and look at him. Someone perhaps you fear |
| W1:78.6 | grievances that we have held against him, you will learn that what | lay hidden while you saw him not is there in everyone and can be |
| W1:85.2 | but light and vision must be joined for me to see. To see, I must | lay grievances aside. I want to see, and this will be the means by |
| W1:94.6 | Nothing is required of you to reach this goal except to | lay all idols and self-images aside, go past the long list of |
| W1:96.17 | you tell your frantic mind salvation comes from your One Self, you | lay another treasure in your growing store. And all of it is given |
| W1:97.4 | then, these minutes willingly, and count on Him Who promised to | lay timelessness beside them. He will offer all His strength to every |
| W1:97.6 | open mind that will accept the healing gift they bring, and He will | lay them everywhere He knows they will be welcome. And they will |
| W1:98.2 | How happy to be certain! All our doubts we | lay aside today and take our stand with certainty of purpose and with |
| W1:98.13 | is there once more to spend a little time with you, be thankful and | lay down all earthly tasks, all little thoughts and limited ideas, |
| W1:99.14 | your function here, and let Him teach you what you need to learn to | lay all fear aside and know your Self as Love Which has no opposite |
| W1:99.20 | Thus do you | lay forgiveness on your mind and let all fear be gently laid aside |
| W1:104.6 | Then | lay aside the conflicts of the world that offer other gifts and other |
| W1:104.6 | to by them, and sought for only in a world of dreams. All this we | lay aside and seek instead that which is truly ours, as we ask to |
| W1:106.1 | If you will | lay aside the ego's voice, however loudly it may seem to call; if you |
| W1:R3.12 | Do not repeat it and then | lay it down. Its usefulness is limitless to you. And it is meant to |
| W1:120.3 | [110] I am as God created me. I am God's Son. Today I | lay aside all sick illusions of myself and let my Father tell me Who |
| W1:128.8 | you see some value in an aspect or an image of the world, refuse to | lay this chain upon your mind and tell yourself with quiet certainty: |
| W1:134.18 | to experiencing the escape from all the heavy chains you sought to | lay upon your brother which were laid upon yourself. |
| W1:134.20 | as it is. Should I accuse myself of doing this? I will not | lay this chain upon myself. |
| W1:135.21 | until the world is lighted up with joy. And gladly will our brothers | lay aside their cumbersome defenses which availed them nothing and |
| W1:136.8 | weak and brings you suffering. It is a choice you make, a plan you | lay when for an instant truth arises in your own deluded mind and all |
| W1:136.15 | it has been allowed to enter. And it comes to any mind that would | lay down its arms and cease to play with folly. It is found at any |
| W1:139.13 | we repeat our dedication to our cause today each hour, as we | lay aside all thoughts that would distract us from our holy aim. For |
| W1:140.10 | So do we | lay aside our amulets, our charms and medicines, our chants and bits |
| W1:151.16 | Such is your Eastertide. And so you | lay the gift of snow-white lilies on the world, replacing witnesses |
| W1:152.10 | We | lay aside the arrogance which says that we are sinners, guilty and |
| W1:153.21 | to you. Defenselessness is all you need to give Him in return. You | lay aside but what was never real to look on Christ and see His |
| W1:156.4 | you, and the trees extend their arms to shield you from the heat and | lay their leaves before you on the ground that you may walk in |
| W1:165.5 | your blindness for the seeing eyes of Christ; your mind has come to | lay aside denial and accept the Thought of God as its inheritance. |
| W1:168.5 | is yet the One Who answers our mistakes by giving us the means to | lay them down and rise to Him in gratitude and love. |
| W1:170.3 | and by your own defense against it, is it real and inescapable. | Lay down your arms, and only then do you perceive it false. |
| W1:170.6 | love is endowed with attributes of fear. For love would ask you | lay down all defense as merely foolish. And your arms indeed would |
| W1:170.9 | Will you restore to love what you have sought to wrest from it and | lay before this mindless piece of stone? Or will you make another |
| W1:181.5 | We | lay these pointless limitations by a little while. We do not look to |
| W1:182.11 | Take time today to | lay aside your shield which profits nothing and lay down the spear |
| W1:182.11 | Take time today to lay aside your shield which profits nothing and | lay down the spear and sword you raised against an enemy without |
| W1:184.1 | other things by emphasizing space surrounding it. This space you | lay between all things to which you give a different name—all |
| W1:186.4 | All false humility we | lay aside today that we may listen to God's Voice reveal to us what |
| W1:187.11 | where we see it, it will be returned to us in form of lilies we can | lay upon our altar, making it a home for Innocence Itself, Who dwells |
| W1:188.9 | that it be innocent, devoid of sin, and open to salvation. And we | lay our saving blessing on it as we say: |
| W1:189.7 | Simply do this: be still and | lay aside all thoughts of what you are and what God is, all concepts |
| W1:190.9 | Lay down your arms and come without defense into the quiet place | |
| W1:190.9 | the quiet place where Heaven's peace holds all things still at last. | Lay down all thoughts of danger and of fear. Let no attack enter with |
| W1:190.9 | all thoughts of danger and of fear. Let no attack enter with you. | Lay down the cruel sword of judgment that you hold against your |
| W1:195.8 | then in gratitude, the way of love. For hatred is forgotten when we | lay comparisons aside. What more remains as obstacles to peace? The |
| W1:198.1 | have established for yourself can be now used against you till you | lay it down as valueless, unwanted, and unreal. Then does illusion |
| W1:200.2 | This is the final point to which each one must come at last, to | lay aside all hope of finding happiness where there is none, of being |
| W2:227.1 | affect my own reality at all by my illusions. Now I give them up and | lay them down before the feet of truth, to be removed forever from my |
| W2:280.1 | God is limited at all. No Thought of God but is forever pure. Can I | lay limits on the Son of God, whose Father willed that he be |
| W2:280.2 | honor to Your Son, for thus alone I find the way to You. Father, I | lay no limits on the Son You love and You created limitless. The |
| M:4.9 | that may remain impossible for a long, long time. He must learn to | lay all judgment aside and ask only what he really wants in every |

| Tx:11.91 | of God is guilty, you will walk along this carpet, believing that it | leads to death. And the journey will seem long and cruel and |

| Tx:12.66 | returns his Father's love forever. The real world is the way that | leads you to remembrance of this one thing that is wholly true and |
| Tx:12.73 | The Holy Spirit | leads me unto Christ, and where else would I go? What need have I but |

| Tx:13.52 | Any direction which will lead you where the Holy Spirit | leads you not goes nowhere. Anything you deny which He knows to be |
| Tx:13.78 | only Guide that you would follow to salvation. He knows the way and | leads you gladly on it. With Him you will not fail to learn what God |
| Tx:14.30 | you learn to share with Him the interpretation of perception that | leads to knowledge. |
| Tx:15.8 | the present, because you are afraid of it. The Holy Spirit | leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell. For the Holy |
| Tx:16.8 | separate and secret from each other. That is not the way, for it | leads not to light and truth. No needs will long be left unmet if you |
| Tx:16.36 | close to truth, and only this stands between you and the bridge that | leads you into it. |
| Tx:16.39 | The bridge that | leads to union in yourself must lead to knowledge, for it was built |
| Tx:17.7 | for you until you learn to see it for yourself. And all His teaching | leads to seeing it and giving thanks with Him. |
| Tx:18.76 | from the whole, being continuous with it and at one with it. It | leads no separate life because its life is the oneness in which its |

| Tx:19.4 | Do not overlook our earlier statement that faithlessness | leads straight to illusions. For faithlessness is the perception of a |
| Tx:19.32 | believe that sin is precious. For the belief that bodies limit mind | leads to a perception of the world in which the proof of separation |
| Tx:19.85 | commandments nor twisted rituals of condemnation to which the body | leads you. Ask not release of it. But free it from the merciless and |
| Tx:20.13 | the veil of fear, lighting each other's way. The holiness that | leads us is within us, as is our home. So will we find what we were |
| Tx:20.13 | is our home. So will we find what we were meant to find by Him Who | leads us. |
| Tx:20.15 | and freedom wait, to offer and receive the bright awareness that | leads you home. The lamp is lit in both of you for one another. And |
| Tx:20.65 | cannot see the body because it cannot look on sin. And thus it | leads you to reality. Your holy brother, sight of whom is your |
| Tx:21.4 | doors are open, and you can see where safety lies and which way | leads to darkness, which to light. Judgment will always give you |
| Tx:21.24 | faith, to make its goals seem real and possible. Faith in the unreal | leads to adjustments of reality to make it fit the goal of madness. |
| Tx:21.32 | which the goal of holiness is reached. Through them the Holy Spirit | leads you to the real world and away from all illusions where your |
| Tx:21.59 | Reason cannot see sin but can see errors and | leads to their correction. It does not value them, but their |
| Tx:21.65 | is so. For reason, kind as is the purpose for which it is the means, | leads steadily away from madness toward the goal of truth. And here |
| Tx:21.77 | eyes or let him be revealed to you through vision? How this decision | leads to its effects is not your problem. But what you want to see |
| Tx:22.8 | of the body. This is the one emotion that opposes love and always | leads to sight of differences and loss of sameness. Here is the one |
| Tx:22.30 | thus it must have been an error. The ego's opposition to correction | leads to its fixed belief in sin and disregard of errors. It looks on |
| Tx:22.53 | can be the means to serve His end. This is the only service which | leads to freedom. To serve this end, the body must be perceived as |
| Tx:23.18 | Illusion meets illusion; truth, itself. The meeting of illusions | leads to war. Peace, looking on itself, extends itself. War is the |
| Tx:23.24 | but the choice whether to take his word for it or be mistaken. This | leads directly to the third preposterous belief that seems to make |
| Tx:23.27 | The ego values only what it takes. This | leads to the fourth law of chaos, which, if the others are accepted, |
| Tx:23.40 | in any form has placed your foot upon the twisted stairway that | leads from Heaven. Yet any instant it is possible to have all this |
| Tx:24.45 | The Christ in you is very still. He knows where you are going, and He | leads you there in gentleness and blessing all the way. His love for |
| Tx:26.30 | in different ways. And you will go along the way your chosen teacher | leads. There are but two directions you can take while time remains |
| Tx:26.31 | is hard indeed to wander off, alone and miserable, down a road which | leads to nothing and which has no purpose. |
| Tx:28.30 | by firm belief, lest God should come to bridge the little gap that | leads to Him. Fight not His coming with illusions, for it is His |
| Tx:30.6 | what you hear may not resolve the problem as you saw it first. This | leads to fear because it contradicts what you perceive, and so you |
| Tx:31.20 | we heard; remembering how much we do not know. This brother neither | leads nor follows us but walks beside us on the selfsame road. He is |
| Tx:31.23 | journey's goal, which is but to decide to walk with him, so neither | leads nor follows. Thus it is a way you go together, not alone. And |
| Tx:31.39 | must proceed in its direction, not away from it. And every road that | leads the other way will not advance the purpose to be found. If this |
| Tx:31.42 | There is no road that | leads away from Him. A journey from yourself does not exist. How |
| W1:64.3 | function given you by God. It is only the arrogance of the ego that | leads you to question this and only the fear of the ego that induces |

| W1:128.3 | hide your worth from you, and add another bar across the door that | leads to true awareness of your Self. |

| W1:155.6 | walks ahead of you, speak to them through illusion, for the road | leads past illusion now, while on the way you call to them that they |
| W1:155.12 | walk to God. The truth that walks before us now is one with Him and | leads us to where He has always been. What way but this could be a |
| W1:155.13 | Your feet are safely set upon the way that | leads the world to God. Look not to ways which seem to lead you |

| W2:WIHS.1 | As He must bridge the gap between reality and dreams, perception | leads to knowledge through the grace that God has given Him, to be |
| W2:287.2 | Father. What but You could I desire to have? What way but that which | leads to You could I desire to walk? And what except the memory of |
| W2:288.1 | This is the thought that | leads the way to You and brings me to my goal. I cannot come to You |
| W2:288.1 | what You created one with me. My brother's is the hand that | leads me on the way to You. His sins are in the past along with mine. |
| W2:327.1 | will endure and take me farther and still farther on the road that | leads to Him. For thus I will be sure that He has not abandoned me |
| W2:338.2 | me until I learn that You have given me the only Thought which | leads me to salvation. Mine alone will fail and lead me nowhere. But |
| W2:352.1 | me comfortless. I have within me both the memory of You and One Who | leads me to it. Father, I would hear Your Voice and find Your peace |

| Tx:1.15 | be devoted to miracles. The purpose of time is to enable man to | learn to use it constructively. Time is thus a teaching device and a |

| Tx:1.26 | equilibrium stabilizes, you will be able to teach as much as you | learn, which will give you the proper balance. Meanwhile, remember |

| Tx:1.31 | for the Crusade is “Listen, learn and do”: Listen to my voice, | learn to undo error, and do something to correct it. The first two |
| Tx:1.75 | be ready, willing, and able. These are the essentials for “listen, | learn, and do.” You must be ready to listen, willing to learn, and |
| Tx:1.75 | for “listen, learn, and do.” You must be ready to listen, willing to | learn, and able to do. Only the last is involuntary because it is the |
| Tx:1.89 | to achieve it. No learning is acquired by anyone unless he wants to | learn it and believes in some way that he needs it. While the concept |
| Tx:2.39 | like the classrooms in which it occurs, is temporary. The ability to | learn has no value when change of understanding is no longer |

| Tx:4.21 | Let us undertake to | learn this lesson together, so we can be free of them together. I |
| Tx:4.73 | with some experience, let me remind you that learning and wanting to | learn are inseparable. All learners learn best when they believe that |
| Tx:4.73 | you that learning and wanting to learn are inseparable. All learners | learn best when they believe that what they are trying to learn is of |
| Tx:4.73 | learners learn best when they believe that what they are trying to | learn is of value to them. However, values in this world are |
| Tx:4.73 | in this world are hierarchical, and not everything you may want to | learn has lasting value. |
| Tx:4.74 | Indeed, many of the things you want to | learn are chosen because their value will not last. The ego thinks it |
| Tx:4.74 | to develop but has systematically failed. It may surprise you to | learn that had the ego wished to do so it could have made the eternal |
| Tx:4.78 | This is the question which you must | learn to ask in connection with everything your mind wishes to |
| Tx:4.86 | The term “holy” can be used here because as you | learn how much you are indebted to the whole Sonship, which includes |
| Tx:4.91 | me. God will come to you only as you will give Him to your brothers. | Learn first of them, and you will be ready to hear God as you hear |
| Tx:4.92 | miserable he is without it and bring it near very slowly, so he can | learn how his misery lessens as he approaches it. This conditions him |
| Tx:5.20 | that Voice and no other. It takes effort and great willingness to | learn. It is the final lesson that I learned, and God's Sons are as |
| Tx:5.27 | you value and choose to follow in determining what you will to | learn. I am your model for decision. By deciding for God, I showed |
| Tx:5.32 | The way to | learn to know your brother is by perceiving the Holy Spirit in him. |
| Tx:5.43 | He must work with and for a mind that is in opposition. Correct and | learn and be open to learning. You have not made truth, but truth can |
| Tx:5.51 | an earlier point. We said that you will one day teach as much as you | learn and that will keep you in balance. The time is now because you |
| Tx:5.51 | balance. The time is now because you have let it be now. You cannot | learn except by teaching. |
| Tx:5.55 | until you join it and give it away. As you teach, so shall you | learn. I will never leave you or forsake you, because to forsake you |
| Tx:5.55 | brother's keeper. In fact, you do not want to keep him. You must | learn to see him as he is and know that he belongs to God as you do. |
| Tx:5.63 | it, is capable of creating reality. We said before that you must | learn to think with God. To think with Him is to think like Him. This |
| Tx:5.64 | And you will succeed. The ego regards this as doom, but you must | learn to regard it as freedom. The guiltless mind cannot suffer. |
| Tx:5.81 | towards the Sonship in the name of its Creator. What you need to | learn now is that only infinite patience can produce immediate |
| Tx:6.9 | We have said before, “As you teach, so shall you | learn.” If you react as if you are persecuted, you are teaching |
| Tx:6.13 | not have equal experiences. The Holy Spirit is glad when you can | learn enough from mine to be re-awakened by them. That was their only |
| Tx:6.14 | by enabling yourselves to hear the Holy Spirit in others, you can | learn from their experiences and gain from them without experiencing |
| Tx:6.24 | limit and must be used for their joint salvation. Each one must | learn to teach that all forms of rejection are utterly meaningless. |
| Tx:6.40 | will be part of it, but through the ego you can hear and teach and | learn what is not true. From this, which you have made, you have |
| Tx:6.41 | only one lesson. If you are to be conflict-free yourselves, you must | learn only from the Holy Spirit and teach only by Him. You are only |
| Tx:6.41 | but when you denied this, you made what you are something you must | learn. We said before that the message of the crucifixion was, “Teach |
| Tx:6.41 | it is the only lesson which is one. Only by teaching it can you | learn it. “As you teach, so will you learn.” If that is true, and it |
| Tx:6.41 | Only by teaching it can you learn it. “As you teach, so will you | learn.” If that is true, and it is true indeed, you must never forget |
| Tx:6.43 | exact opposite of everything the ego believes. This is how you will | learn the truth that will set you free and keep you so, as others |
| Tx:6.43 | learn the truth that will set you free and keep you so, as others | learn it of you. The only way to have peace is to teach peace. By |
| Tx:6.44 | Everything you teach, you are learning. Teach only love, and | learn that love is yours and you are love. |
| Tx:6.59 | what you must avoid to escape from harm so much as what you need to | learn to have joy. This is true even of the world's teachers. |
| Tx:6.70 | in attack and rejection, so this is what they perceive and teach and | learn. These insane concepts are clearly the result of their own |
| Tx:6.73 | real reason why in many respects the first lesson is the hardest to | learn. Still strongly aware of the ego in himself and responding |
| Tx:6.78 | To have peace, teach peace to | learn it. |
| Tx:6.84 | of other minds, because He does not want you to teach errors and | learn them yourselves. He would hardly be consistent if He allowed |
| Tx:6.84 | hardly be consistent if He allowed you to strengthen what you must | learn to avoid. In the mind of the thinker, then, He is judgmental, |
| Tx:6.84 | This enables the mind to teach without judgment and therefore to | learn to be without judgment. The undoing is necessary only in your |
| Tx:6.88 | the Kingdom. You create by what you are, but this is what you must | learn. The way to learn it is inherent in the third step, which |
| Tx:6.88 | create by what you are, but this is what you must learn. The way to | learn it is inherent in the third step, which brings together the |
| Tx:6.90 | You | learn first that having rests on giving and not on getting. Next you |
| Tx:6.90 | learn first that having rests on giving and not on getting. Next you | learn that you learn what you teach and that you want to learn peace. |
| Tx:6.90 | having rests on giving and not on getting. Next you learn that you | learn what you teach and that you want to learn peace. This is the |
| Tx:6.90 | Next you learn that you learn what you teach and that you want to | learn peace. This is the condition for identifying with the Kingdom |
| Tx:6.94 | Kingdom. Everything outside the Kingdom is illusion, but you must | learn to accept truth, because you threw it away. You therefore saw |
| Tx:7.14 | is essential. This form of the law clearly implies that you will | learn what you are from what you have projected onto others and |
| Tx:7.17 | relinquish one to understand the other. This is the only way you can | learn consistency so that you can finally be consistent. |
| Tx:7.21 | potentials for learning, and you will apply them to what you want to | learn. Learning is effort, and effort means will. We have used the |
| Tx:7.22 | because that would defeat its purpose. Therefore, it does not really | learn at all. The Holy Spirit teaches you to use what the ego has |
| Tx:7.23 | You made the effort to | learn, and the Holy Spirit has a unified goal for all effort. He |
| Tx:7.26 | clearly impossible. It is therefore a lesson which you cannot really | learn, and therefore cannot really teach. Yet you are always |
| Tx:7.35 | only for healing, because He knows you only as whole. By healing you | learn of wholeness, and by learning of wholeness you learn to |
| Tx:7.35 | By healing you learn of wholeness, and by learning of wholeness you | learn to remember God. You have forgotten Him, but the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:7.48 | created it, but you think that you have changed it as long as you | learn through the ego. This does place you in a position of needing |
| Tx:7.48 | through the ego. This does place you in a position of needing to | learn a lesson which seems contradictory—you must learn to change |
| Tx:7.48 | of needing to learn a lesson which seems contradictory—you must | learn to change your mind about your mind. Only by this can you learn |
| Tx:7.48 | must learn to change your mind about your mind. Only by this can you | learn that it is changeless. When you heal that is exactly what you |
| Tx:7.52 | because you perceive only what is true. Come therefore unto me and | learn of the truth in you. The mind we share is shared by all our |
| Tx:7.76 | love everything He created of which you are a part, or you cannot | learn of His peace and accept His gift for yourself and as yourself. |
| Tx:7.89 | one can keep a belief he has judged to be unbelievable. The more you | learn about the ego, the more you realize that it cannot be believed. |
| Tx:8.7 | before a real change in direction becomes possible. You cannot | learn simultaneously from two teachers who are in total disagreement |
| Tx:8.8 | is. If learning that is the purpose of the curriculum, you must | learn it of Him. The ego does not know what it is trying to teach. It |
| Tx:8.8 | the Holy Spirit entirely, which is quite impossible, you could | learn nothing from the ego because the ego knows nothing. |
| Tx:8.11 | Will. This unnatural lesson cannot be learned, but the attempt to | learn it is a violation of your own freedom and makes you afraid of |
| Tx:8.16 | be given you, because it has already been given. Ask for light and | learn that you are light. If you want understanding and |
| Tx:8.16 | you are light. If you want understanding and enlightenment, you will | learn it, because your will to learn it is your decision to listen to |
| Tx:8.16 | and enlightenment, you will learn it, because your will to | learn it is your decision to listen to the Teacher who knows of light |
| Tx:8.20 | of the teacher you choose, is know thyself. There is nothing else to | learn. Everyone is looking for himself and for the power and glory he |
| Tx:8.22 | choice could you make? Having made this choice, you will begin to | learn and understand why you have believed that when you met someone |
| Tx:8.24 | to you, because that is what He is. See this glory everywhere to | learn what you are. |
| Tx:8.37 | yourself. There is no separation of God and His creation. You will | learn this as you learn that there is no separation of your will and |
| Tx:8.37 | is no separation of God and His creation. You will learn this as you | learn that there is no separation of your will and mine. Let the love |
| Tx:8.44 | Listen to the story of the prodigal son, and | learn what God's treasure is and yours: This son of a loving father |
| Tx:8.52 | is, as His does. You who are beloved of God are wholly blessed. | Learn this of me, and free the holy will of all those who are as |
| Tx:8.60 | to a learner as to be placed in a curriculum which he cannot | learn. His sense of adequacy suffers, and he must become depressed. |
| Tx:8.80 | a real question is, although it asks an endless number. Yet you can | learn this as you learn to question the value of the ego and thus |

| Tx:8.91 | that what you are is fearful, then it must follow that you will not | learn this course. Yet you might remember that the reason for the |
| Tx:8.96 | who could not possibly teach you your will. Of him you can never | learn it, and this gives you the illusion of safety. Yet you cannot |
| Tx:8.114 | Believe in your brothers because I believe in you, and you will | learn that my belief in you is justified. Believe in me by believing |
| Tx:8.114 | them for the sake of what God gave them. They will answer you if you | learn to ask truth of them. Do not ask for blessings without blessing |
| Tx:8.114 | for blessings without blessing them, for only in this way can you | learn how blessed you are. By following this way, you are looking for |
| Tx:9.5 | How is this different from telling you that what you teach you | learn? Your brother is as right as you are, and if you think he is |
| Tx:9.8 | God gave you the function to create in eternity. You do not need to | learn this, but you do need to learn to want this, and for this all |
| Tx:9.8 | in eternity. You do not need to learn this, but you do need to | learn to want this, and for this all learning was made. This is the |
| Tx:9.15 | work is not your function, and unless you accept this, you cannot | learn what your function is. The confusion of functions is so typical |
| Tx:9.29 | you that the words are true. By following the right Guide you will | learn the simplest of all lessons— |
| Tx:9.34 | because each part is whole. Wholeness is indivisible, but you cannot | learn of your wholeness until you see it everywhere. You can know |
| Tx:9.35 | You are not yet awake, but you can | learn how to awaken. Very simply the Holy Spirit teaches you to |
| Tx:9.35 | Spirit teaches you to awaken others. As you see them waken, you will | learn what waking means, and because you have willed to wake them, |
| Tx:9.37 | you. You will never know that you are co-creator with God until you | learn that your brother is a co-creator with you. |
| Tx:9.59 | which happens to you is caused by factors outside yourself. You must | learn that time is solely at your disposal, and that nothing in the |
| Tx:9.81 | I do not bring God's message with deception, and you will | learn this as you learn that you always receive as much as you |
| Tx:9.81 | bring God's message with deception, and you will learn this as you | learn that you always receive as much as you accept. You could accept |
| Tx:9.92 | be completely forgotten. If you but see the little spark, you will | learn of the greater light, for the rays are there unseen. Perceiving |
| Tx:9.99 | His Son. If you hear His message, He has answered you, and you will | learn of Him if you hear aright. The love of God is in everything He |
| Tx:9.103 | you the means for undoing what you have made. Listen, and you will | learn what you are. |
| Tx:9.104 | as it is. If God created His Son perfect, that is how you must | learn to see him to learn of his reality. And as part of the Sonship, |
| Tx:9.104 | created His Son perfect, that is how you must learn to see him to | learn of his reality. And as part of the Sonship, that is how you |
| Tx:9.104 | And as part of the Sonship, that is how you must see yourself to | learn of yours. |
| Tx:9.107 | If you would remember eternity, you must | learn to look only on the eternal. If you allow yourselves to become |
| Tx:10.9 | ability to see. Look upon the glory of His creation, and you will | learn what God has kept for you. |
| Tx:10.11 | know His gift to you? Give, then, without limit and without end to | learn how much He has given you. Your ability to accept Him depends |
| Tx:10.15 | share it to know it, for sharing is knowing. Blessed are you who | learn that to hear the Will of your Father is to know your own. For |
| Tx:10.31 | it is His. Your Soul does not need salvation, but your mind needs to | learn what salvation is. You are not saved from anything, but you are |
| Tx:10.34 | the denial of this simple fact takes many forms, and these you must | learn to recognize and to oppose steadfastly and without exception. |
| Tx:10.47 | What you must | learn to recognize is that the last thing the ego wishes you to |
| Tx:10.49 | then, you have become afraid of yourself. And no one wills to | learn what he believes would destroy him. |
| Tx:10.50 | this is impossible. Only by learning what fear is, can you finally | learn to distinguish the possible from the impossible and the false |
| Tx:10.63 | obedience, for obedience implies submission. He would only have you | learn your own will and follow it, not in the spirit of sacrifice and |
| Tx:10.68 | as valuable as mine. For your part must be like mine if you | learn it of me. If you believe that yours is limited, you are |
| Tx:10.76 | learned, and you are not without a Teacher. Yet your willingness to | learn of Him depends on your willingness to question everything you |
| Tx:10.80 | of what you think it will demand of you. Yet only by asking will you | learn that nothing that is of God demands anything of you. God gives; |
| Tx:10.81 | restore, be capable of misinterpreting the question you must ask to | learn His answer? |
| Tx:10.83 | who will ask the truth of God without fear, for only thus can you | learn that His answer is the release from fear. Beautiful Child of |
| Tx:10.85 | will not disappear in the presence of God's answer? Ask, then, to | learn of the reality of your brother because this is what you will |
| Tx:10.86 | with his Father. Love him who is beloved of His Father, and you will | learn of the Father's love for you. |
| Tx:10.89 | only their lack of understanding which frightens them, and when they | learn to perceive truly, they are not afraid. And because of this, |
| Tx:10.90 | deceived in you, you can be deceived only in yourself. Yet you can | learn the truth of yourself of the Holy Spirit, who will teach you |
| Tx:11.11 | of your deep sense of loss. If when you perceive it in others you | learn to supply the loss, the basic cause of fear is removed. Thereby |
| Tx:11.13 | against it the underlying appeal for it? And how could you better | learn of its reality than by answering the appeal for it by giving |
| Tx:11.13 | fear with love and translate error into truth. And thus will you | learn of Him how to replace your dream of separation with the fact of |
| Tx:11.18 | dream of hatred will not leave you without help, and help is here. | Learn to be quiet in the midst of turmoil, for quietness is the end |
| Tx:11.35 | to truth. There you will see your vision changed, and there you will | learn to see truly. From this place, where God and His Son dwell in |
| Tx:11.41 | Behold the Guide your Father gave you that you might | learn you have eternal life. For death is not your Father's Will nor |
| Tx:11.46 | could not trust your own love when you have attacked it. You cannot | learn of perfect love with a split mind because a split mind has made |
| Tx:11.47 | resources. He becomes your resource because, of yourself, you cannot | learn. The learning situation in which you placed yourself is |
| Tx:11.48 | where yours have clearly failed. Your learning goal has been not to | learn, and this cannot lead to successful learning. You cannot |
| Tx:11.48 | a crucial learning failure. Would you ask those who have failed to | learn what learning aids are for? They do not know. For if they could |
| Tx:11.49 | into curricular terms, this is the same as saying, “Try to | learn but do not succeed.” The result of this curriculum goal is |
| Tx:11.49 | which this strange curriculum goal is against. If you are trying to | learn how not to learn and are using the aim of teaching to defeat |
| Tx:11.49 | curriculum goal is against. If you are trying to learn how not to | learn and are using the aim of teaching to defeat itself, what can |
| Tx:11.50 | you do not realize even yet that there is something you do will to | learn, and that you can learn it because it is your will to do so. |
| Tx:11.50 | yet that there is something you do will to learn, and that you can | learn it because it is your will to do so. |
| Tx:11.51 | You who have tried to | learn what you do not will should take heart, for although the |
| Tx:11.52 | because it will lead you to God. You can teach the way to Him and | learn it if you follow the Teacher Who knows it and His curriculum |
| Tx:11.52 | attention. Everything else will be given you. For it is your will to | learn aright, and nothing can oppose the Will of God's Son. His |
| Tx:11.57 | begins with his investment in the real world, and by this he will | learn to reinvest in himself. For reality is one with the Father and |
| Tx:11.58 | world, as you will surely do, you will remember us. Yet you must | learn the cost of sleeping and refuse to pay it. Only then will you |
| Tx:11.59 | Spirit's guidance increases and becomes generalized. Gradually you | learn to apply it to everyone and everything, for its applicability |
| Tx:11.62 | what it does, you recognize its being. And by what it does, you | learn what it is. You cannot see your abilities, but you gain |
| Tx:11.63 | you can see the results of His Presence, and through them you will | learn that He is there. What He enables you to do is clearly not of |
| Tx:11.72 | not yet want only that. Yet as I become more real to you, you will | learn that you do want only that. And you will see me as you look |
| Tx:11.76 | given me of the Father unless He had also given it to you? When you | learn to make me manifest, you will never see death. For you will |
| Tx:11.86 | pain and in pain. Their growth is attended by suffering, and they | learn of sorrow and separation and death. Their minds are trapped in |
| Tx:11.88 | he has never condemned. The Atonement is the final lesson he need | learn, for it teaches him that, never having sinned, he has no need |
| Tx:11.93 | You will see me as you | learn the Son of God is guiltless. He has always sought his |
| Tx:11.95 | guilt that darkens your mind, and by accepting his purity as yours, | learn of him that it is yours. |
| Tx:11.97 | you what immortality is, for by accepting your guiltlessness, you | learn that the past has never been, and so the future is needless. |
| Tx:12.28 | that is no more. And this decision is one of future pain. Unless you | learn that past pain is delusional, you are choosing a future of |
| Tx:12.31 | It is His interpretation of the means of salvation which you must | learn to accept if you would share His goal of salvation for you. |
| Tx:12.39 | offering to you has never changed. You who know not what you do can | learn what insanity is and look beyond it. It is given you to learn |
| Tx:12.39 | do can learn what insanity is and look beyond it. It is given you to | learn how to deny insanity and come forth from your private world in |
| Tx:12.46 | past, either his or yours as you perceived it, you will be able to | learn from what you see now. For the past can cast no shadow to |
| Tx:12.49 | have looked for it where it is not and therefore have not found it. | Learn, then, to seek it where it is, and it will dawn on eyes that |
| Tx:12.62 | away in glad exchange for what you did not make is willingness to | learn the one you made is false. |
| Tx:12.70 | and will but last until you step aside from all your needs and | learn that all of them have been fulfilled. Therefore He has no |
| Tx:13.16 | it, accept His offer of Atonement for all your brothers. For so you | learn that it is true for you. Remember always that it is impossible |
| Tx:13.19 | change it. Look, then, upon the light He placed within you and | learn that what you feared was there has been replaced with love. |
| Tx:13.25 | come as long as you believe there is a reason for it. For you must | learn that guilt is always totally insane and has no reason. The Holy |
| Tx:13.40 | and differences are necessary teaching aids, for by them you | learn what to avoid and what to seek. When you have learned this, you |
| Tx:13.42 | Holy Spirit will teach you how to use it and, by projecting it, to | learn that it is in you. |
| Tx:13.43 | for God is sure, and what He wills is as sure as He is. You will | learn salvation, because you will learn how to save. It will not be |
| Tx:13.43 | is as sure as He is. You will learn salvation, because you will | learn how to save. It will not be possible to exempt yourself from |
| Tx:13.43 | to teach you. Salvation is as sure as God. His certainty suffices. | Learn that even the darkest nightmare that disturbed the Mind of |
| Tx:13.43 | the Mind of God's sleeping Son holds no power over him. He will | learn the lesson of awaking. God watches over him, and light |
| Tx:13.48 | If you are blessed and do not know it, you need to | learn it must be so. The knowledge is not taught, but its conditions |
| Tx:13.48 | must be acquired, for it is they that have been thrown away. You can | learn to bless and cannot give what you have not. If, then, you offer |
| Tx:13.49 | Atonement for yourself and learning you are guiltless. How could you | learn what has been done for you, but which you do not know, unless |
| Tx:13.52 | of sharing what cannot be shared. And while you think it possible to | learn to do this, you will not believe all that is possible to learn |
| Tx:13.52 | to learn to do this, you will not believe all that is possible to | learn to do. |
| Tx:13.53 | therefore, must begin His teaching by showing you what you can never | learn. His message is not indirect, but He must introduce the simple |
| Tx:13.54 | is happiness. This has so confused you that you have undertaken to | learn to do what you can never do, believing that unless you learn |
| Tx:13.54 | to learn to do what you can never do, believing that unless you | learn it, you will not be happy. You do not realize that the |
| Tx:13.55 | you have believed that nothing can be precious and that you can | learn how to make the untrue true. |
| Tx:13.56 | that truth is true. This is the hardest lesson you will ever | learn, and in the end the only one. Simplicity is very difficult for |
| Tx:13.58 | make the one distinction for you which you cannot make but need to | learn. Your faith in nothing is deceiving you. Offer your faith to |
| Tx:13.60 | When you teach anyone that truth is true, you | learn it with him. And so you learn that what seemed hardest was the |
| Tx:13.60 | teach anyone that truth is true, you learn it with him. And so you | learn that what seemed hardest was the easiest. Learn to be happy |
| Tx:13.60 | with him. And so you learn that what seemed hardest was the easiest. | Learn to be happy learners. You will never learn how to make nothing |
| Tx:13.60 | hardest was the easiest. Learn to be happy learners. You will never | learn how to make nothing everything. Yet see that this has been your |
| Tx:13.61 | over to the Holy Spirit to be unlearned for you. And then begin to | learn the joyous lessons that come quickly on the firm foundation |
| Tx:13.63 | Behold your brothers in their freedom and | learn of them how to be free of darkness. The light in you will waken |
| Tx:13.66 | yield to it, you are deciding against your happiness and will not | learn how to be happy. Say therefore to yourself gently, but with the |
| Tx:13.70 | By giving power to nothing, he threw away the joyous opportunity to | learn that nothing has no power. And by not dispelling darkness, he |
| Tx:13.72 | mind. Remember always that mind is one and cause is one. You will | learn communication with this oneness only when you learn to deny the |
| Tx:13.72 | is one. You will learn communication with this oneness only when you | learn to deny the causeless and accept the Cause of God as yours. The |
| Tx:13.78 | the way and leads you gladly on it. With Him you will not fail to | learn what God wills for you is your will. Without His guidance, you |
| Tx:13.80 | lies behind every decision which the Holy Spirit makes for you? | Learn of His wisdom and His love and teach His answer to everyone who |
| Tx:13.82 | within yourself. Unlearn isolation through His loving guidance and | learn of all the happy communication that you have thrown away but |
| Tx:13.84 | I know not. Yet He will never keep from me what He would have me | learn. And so I trust Him to communicate to me all that He knows for |
| Tx:13.88 | be forgiven, for this has already been accomplished. Ask, rather, to | learn how to forgive and restore what always was to your unforgiving |
| Tx:13.88 | them that use it. On earth this is your only function, and you must | learn that it is all you want to learn. |
| Tx:13.88 | is your only function, and you must learn that it is all you want to | learn. |
| Tx:13.89 | You will feel guilty till you | learn this. For in the end, whatever form it takes, your guilt arises |
| Tx:14.1 | mind where God Himself has placed it. If you would but listen and | learn how impossible this is! Do not endow Him with attributes you |
| Tx:14.9 | exchange can freedom from pain be his. Yet those who have failed to | learn need teaching, not attack. To attack those who have need of |
| Tx:14.9 | not attack. To attack those who have need of teaching is to fail to | learn from them. |
| Tx:14.11 | everyone whom you accord release from guilt, you will inevitably | learn your innocence. The circle of Atonement has no end. And you |
| Tx:14.20 | to use on your behalf. You who made it to crucify yourselves must | learn of Him how to apply it to the holy cause of restoration. |
| Tx:14.30 | to His. Joining with Him in seeing is the way in which you | learn to share with Him the interpretation of perception that leads |
| Tx:14.50 | function, but the Holy Spirit's.] It will seem difficult for you to | learn that you have no basis at all for ordering your thoughts. This |
| Tx:14.59 | only the insane, in deepest sleep, could even dream of it. Can God | learn how not to be God? And can His Son, given all power by Him, |
| Tx:14.59 | learn how not to be God? And can His Son, given all power by Him, | learn to be powerless? What have you taught yourselves that you can |
| Tx:14.62 | Learn of His happiness, which is yours. But to accomplish this, all | |
| Tx:14.64 | Do not be concerned how you can | learn a lesson so completely different from everything you have |
| Tx:14.71 | will always be indivisible. As we are held as one in God, so do we | learn as one in Him. God's Teacher is as like to His Creator as is |
| Tx:14.72 | always that they know nothing, but who have become willing to | learn everything, will learn it. But whenever they trust themselves, |
| Tx:14.72 | know nothing, but who have become willing to learn everything, will | learn it. But whenever they trust themselves, they will not learn. |
| Tx:14.72 | will learn it. But whenever they trust themselves, they will not | learn. They have destroyed their motivation for learning by thinking |
| Tx:14.73 | know unless the effects of understanding are with them can really | learn at all. And for this, it must be peace they want and nothing |
| Tx:15.1 | calm and quiet all the time? Yet that is what time is for—to | learn just that and nothing more. God's Teacher cannot be satisfied |
| Tx:15.1 | function until you have become such a consistent learner that you | learn only of Him. When this has happened, you will no longer need a |
| Tx:15.1 | has happened, you will no longer need a teacher or time in which to | learn. |
| Tx:15.11 | Time is inconceivable without change, yet holiness does not change. | Learn from this instant more than merely hell does not exist. In this |
| Tx:15.20 | way. You can practice the mechanics of the holy instant and will | learn much from doing so. Yet its shining and glittering brilliance, |
| Tx:15.21 | You will receive very specific instructions as you go along. To | learn to separate out this single second and begin to experience it |
| Tx:15.24 | is a deep responsibility you owe yourself, and one which you must | learn to remember all the time. The lesson will seem hard at first, |
| Tx:15.24 | all the time. The lesson will seem hard at first, but you will | learn to love it when you realize that it is true and constitutes a |
| Tx:15.30 | to glory. But it is a sacrifice to accept anything less than glory. | Learn that you must be worthy of the Prince of Peace, born in you in |
| Tx:15.30 | have given slip into nothingness. Holy Child of God, when will you | learn that only holiness can content you and give you peace? |
| Tx:15.31 | Remember that you | learn not for yourself alone, no more than I did. It is because I |
| Tx:15.31 | no more than I did. It is because I learned for you that you can | learn of me. I would but teach you what is yours, so that together we |
| Tx:15.38 | Would you | learn how perfect and immaculate is the holy altar on which your |
| Tx:15.39 | instant, as clear as you would have me. And the extent to which you | learn to be willing to accept me is the measure of the time in which |
| Tx:15.63 | If you would give yourself as your Father gives His Self, you will | learn to understand Selfhood. And therein is love's meaning |
| Tx:15.64 | of ideas with ideas. Through your ability to do this, you will | learn what you must be, for you will begin to understand what your |
| Tx:15.67 | to look at it clearly, and by withdrawing your investment in it, to | learn to let it go. No one would choose to let go what he believes |
| Tx:15.74 | Anger takes many forms, but it cannot long deceive those who will | learn that love brings no guilt at all, and what brings guilt cannot |
| Tx:15.79 | He must side with every sign or token of your willingness to | learn of Him what the truth must be. He is swift to utilize whatever |
| Tx:15.80 | Hear Him gladly and | learn of Him that you have need of no special relationships at all. |
| Tx:15.80 | in them what you have thrown away. And through them you will never | learn the value of what you have cast aside but what you still desire |
| Tx:15.85 | is accomplished in the holy instant. Yet it is needful for you to | learn just what this shift entails, so you will become willing to |
| Tx:15.91 | its use for separation and attack which the ego sees in it, you will | learn you have no need of a body at all. In the holy instant there |
| Tx:15.93 | as God is, and every sacrifice you ask of yourself, you ask of me. | Learn now that sacrifice of any kind is nothing but a limitation |
| Tx:15.104 | You who believe that sacrifice is love must | learn that sacrifice is separation from love. For sacrifice brings |
| Tx:16.5 | True empathy is of Him Who knows what it is. You will | learn His interpretation of it if you let Him use your capacity for |
| Tx:16.26 | yourself, the witnesses to your teaching have gathered to help you | learn. Their gratitude has joined with yours and God's to strengthen |
| Tx:16.26 | outside your teaching and apart from it. But with them you must | learn that you but taught yourself and learned from the conviction |
| Tx:16.27 | This year you will begin to | learn and make learning commensurate with teaching. You have chosen |
| Tx:16.27 | offers it to the teacher in gratitude and shares it with him. As you | learn, your gratitude to your Self, Who teaches you what He is, will |
| Tx:16.27 | you what He is, will grow and help you honor Him. And you will | learn His power and strength and purity, and love Him as His Father |
| Tx:16.45 | This is the “natural” condition of the separation, and those who | learn that it is not natural at all seem to be the unnatural ones. |
| Tx:16.67 | where truth and beauty wait for you. Go on to meet them gladly, and | learn how much awaits you for the simple willingness to give up |
| Tx:16.78 | them for the illusions which you perceive in them. Thus will you | learn that you have been forgiven, for it is you who offered them |
| Tx:17.4 | by giving some of it to one teacher and some to another. And so you | learn to deal with part of truth in one way and in another way the |
| Tx:17.5 | Think you that you can bring truth to fantasy and | learn what truth means from the perspective of illusions? Truth has |
| Tx:17.7 | thanks the Father for. He was created to see this for you until you | learn to see it for yourself. And all His teaching leads to seeing it |
| Tx:17.9 | could complete it thus. The real world, in its loveliness, you | learn to reach. Fantasies are all undone, and no one and nothing |
| Tx:17.21 | increasingly unwilling to let it be hidden from you. And you will | learn to seek for and establish conditions in which this beauty can |
| Tx:17.71 | Yet think on this, and | learn the cause of faithlessness: You think you hold against the |
| Tx:18.38 | assume His function for Him. Give Him but what He asks, that you may | learn how little is your part and how great is His. |
| Tx:18.49 | There is nothing outside you. That is what you must ultimately | learn, for it is [in that] realization that the Kingdom of Heaven is |
| Tx:18.95 | not for us to dwell on what cannot be attained. There is too much to | learn. The readiness for knowledge still must be attained. |
| Tx:19.16 | Let then your dedication be to the eternal and | learn how not to interfere with it and make it slave to time. For |
| Tx:19.67 | and release me from punishment for what I have not done. So will you | learn the freedom that I taught by teaching freedom to each other and |
| Tx:19.77 | to death. For it was offered you, and you accepted. Yet you must | learn still more about this strange devotion, for it contains the |
| Tx:19.97 | them and go beyond them. It would not have you see its weakness and | learn it has no power to keep you from the truth. The Guide Who |
| Tx:20.5 | thing to draw your brother to you and to attract his body's eyes? | Learn you but offer him a crown of thorns, not recognizing it for |
| Tx:20.33 | concerned with anything except the part that has been given you to | learn. For He Who knows the rest will see to it without your help. |
| Tx:20.33 | world goes with them. Each holy relationship must enter here to | learn its special function in the Holy Spirit's plan, now that it |
| Tx:20.44 | hands in safety and in peace. Let us consider now what he must | learn, to share his Father's confidence in him. What is he, that the |
| Tx:20.56 | him to replace the unholy one he chose before. And here can he | learn relationships are his salvation and not his doom. You who are |
| Tx:20.59 | and say, “I want this above all else, and yet I do not want to | learn the means to get it”? |
| Tx:20.68 | doubts for certainty? Would you not willingly be free of misery and | learn again of joy? Your holy relationship offers all this to you. As |
| Tx:21.2 | decisions. And you will see the witness to the choice you made and | learn from this to recognize which one you chose. [The world you see |
| Tx:21.5 | There is no need to | learn through pain. And gentle lessons are acquired joyously and are |
| Tx:21.5 | and are remembered gladly. What gives you happiness you want to | learn and not forget. It is not this you would deny. Your question is |
| Tx:21.13 | We have repeated how little is asked of you to | learn this course. It is the same small willingness you need to have |
| Tx:21.64 | and without a hope of safe return. You teach him this, and you will | learn of him exactly what you taught. For you can teach him only that |
| Tx:21.67 | Love plans is like Itself in this: being united, It would have you | learn what you must be. And being one with It, it must be given you |
| Tx:21.67 | the glad acceptance of what is given you to give your brother, and | learn with him what has been given both of you. To give is no more |
| Tx:22.25 | And all the misery you made has been your own. Are you not glad to | learn it is not true? Is it not welcome news to hear not one of the |
| Tx:22.30 | The ego's whole continuance depends on its belief you cannot | learn this course. Share this belief, and reason will be unable to |
| Tx:22.43 | is given to be the givers of what they have received. And so they | learn that it is theirs forever. All barriers disappear before their |
| Tx:22.44 | your joined hands and touch this heavy-seeming block, and you will | learn how easily your fingers slip through its nothingness. It is no |
| Tx:24.2 | To | learn this course requires willingness to question every value that |
| Tx:24.67 | To no one here is this describable. Nor is there any way to | learn what this condition means. Not till you go past learning to the |
| Tx:25.4 | to do, since it is He Who does it. And in the doing of it will you | learn the body merely seems to be the means to do it. For the mind is |
| Tx:25.6 | to behold, for means and end are never separate. And thus you | learn what seems to have a life apart has none. |
| Tx:25.12 | there ever be. The only value that the past can hold is that you | learn it gave you no rewards that you would want to keep. For only |
| Tx:25.21 | is given not to you. For what you give is His, and giving it you | learn to understand His gift to you. And give the Holy Spirit what He |
| Tx:25.63 | He wrested it from you against your will. And so you would not | learn it is your will to be without it. You need not give it to Him |
| Tx:25.66 | You who know not of justice still can ask and | learn the answer. Justice looks on all in the same way. It is not |

| Tx:26.30 | only purpose, for only that is all there is to learn. And you can | learn it many different ways. All learning is a help or hindrance to |
| Tx:26.60 | Cause and effect are one, not separate. God wills you | learn what always has been true—that He created you as part of Him, |
| Tx:27.18 | the world will ever hear. Brother, there is no death. And this you | learn when you but wish to show your brother that you had no hurt of |
| Tx:27.53 | Peace be to you to whom is healing offered. And you will | learn that peace is given you when you accept the healing for |

| Tx:27.90 | each other; that they both be true. This is the only secret yet to | learn. And it will be no secret you are healed. |
| Tx:28.7 | And who would keep a senseless lesson in his mind when he can | learn and can preserve a better one? When ancient memories of hate |
| Tx:28.9 | which you confused with cause. It can deserve but laughter when you | learn you have remembered consequences which were causeless and could |
| Tx:28.25 | Like every lesson which the Holy Spirit requests you | learn, the miracle is clear. It demonstrates what He would have you |
| Tx:28.25 | learn, the miracle is clear. It demonstrates what He would have you | learn and shows you its effects are what you want. In His forgiving |
| Tx:28.26 | the lesson will not teach the whole. The miracle is useless if you | learn but that the body can be healed, for this is not the lesson it |
| Tx:29.8 | behind which you can hide? There is a shock that comes to those who | learn their savior is their enemy no more. There is a wariness that |
| Tx:29.10 | Why would you not perceive it as release from suffering to | learn that you are free? Why would you not acclaim the truth, instead |
| Tx:29.20 | he is a body. For beyond his dreams is his reality. But he must | learn he is a savior first, before he can remember what he is. And he |
| Tx:29.35 | Your brother thinks he holds the hand of death. Believe him not. But | learn instead how blessed are you who can release him just by |
| Tx:29.50 | the pictures it projects outside itself? Save time, my brothers; | learn what time is for. And speed the end of idols in a world made |
| Tx:30.34 | perfect answer. Hear it now that you may be reminded of His love and | learn your will. God would not have His Son made prisoner to what he |
| Tx:30.37 | one walks upon the earth but must depend on your decision, that he | learn death has no power over him because he shares your freedom as |
| Tx:30.50 | he is afraid because he thought the rules protected him. Now must he | learn the boxes and the bears did not deceive him, broke no rules, |
| Tx:30.69 | enemy. But when they joined and shared a purpose, they were free to | learn their will is one. And thus the Will of God must reach to their |

| Tx:31.1 | and can have no effects. And that is all. Can this be hard to | learn by anyone who wants it to be true? Only unwillingness to learn |
| Tx:31.1 | to learn by anyone who wants it to be true? Only unwillingness to | learn it could make such an easy lesson difficult. How hard is it to |
| Tx:31.2 | it not with difficulty in the simple things salvation asks you | learn. It teaches but the very obvious. It merely goes from one |
| Tx:31.2 | For somehow you believe that what is totally confused is easier to | learn and understand. What you have taught yourselves is such a giant |
| Tx:31.2 | you wanted to and did not pause in diligence to judge it hard to | learn, or too complex to grasp. |
| Tx:31.3 | curtains to obscure the simple and the obvious. Say not you cannot | learn them. For your power to learn is strong enough to teach you |
| Tx:31.3 | and the obvious. Say not you cannot learn them. For your power to | learn is strong enough to teach you that your will is not your own, |

| Tx:31.26 | to all temptation and to every situation that occurs. Learn this and | learn it well, for it is here delay of happiness is shortened by a |
| Tx:31.29 | and not the mind. The body thinks no thoughts. It has no power to | learn, to pardon, nor enslave. It gives no orders that the mind need |

| Tx:31.36 | undertake who still believe there is another answer to be found. | Learn now, without despair, there is no hope of answer in the world. |
| Tx:31.36 | time unless you go beyond what you have learned to what is yet to | learn. For from this lowest point will learning lead to heights of |
| Tx:31.38 | this step is to defeat your purpose here. You did not come to | learn to find a road the world does not contain. The search for |
| Tx:31.39 | the way. To you who seem to find this course to be too difficult to | learn, let me repeat that to achieve a goal you must proceed in its |
| Tx:31.39 | this be difficult to understand, then is this course impossible to | learn. But only then. For otherwise, it is a simple teaching in the |
| Tx:31.56 | shown that different thoughts have different consequence. So it can | learn that everything it thinks reflects the deep confusion that it |
| Tx:31.59 | The world can teach no images of you unless you want to | learn them. There will come a time when images have all gone by, and |
| Tx:31.66 | as it was perceived before will change the world for eyes that | learn to see, because the concept of the self has changed. Are you |
| Tx:31.82 | whom God says, “Release My Son!” be tempted not to listen when you | learn that it is you for whom He asks release? And what but this is |
| Tx:31.82 | what this course would teach? And what but this is there for you to | learn? |
| Tx:31.87 | Trials are but lessons which you failed to | learn presented once again, so where you made a faulty choice before, |
| Tx:31.89 | Learn then the happy habit of response to all temptation to perceive | |
| W1:I.4 | exercise should be practiced with the eyes open, since the aim is to | learn how to see. The only rule that should be followed throughout is |
| W1:5.1 | will be perceived as different. This is not true. However, until you | learn that form does not matter, each form becomes a proper subject |
| W1:13.3 | It is essential, therefore, that you | learn to recognize the meaningless and accept it without fear. If you |
| W1:17.1 | other way around. This is not the way the world thinks, but you must | learn that it is the way you think. If it were not so, perception |
| W1:23.2 | If the cause of the world you see is attack thoughts, you must | learn that it is these thoughts which you do not want. There is no |
| W1:24.2 | of your conviction that you do know what they are, you cannot | learn. The idea for today is a step toward opening your mind so that |
| W1:26.1 | ultimately save you. But you are misusing it now. You must therefore | learn how it can be used for your own best interests rather than |
| W1:29.3 | Try then today to begin to | learn how to look on all things with love, appreciation, and |
| W1:37.9 | Offer him the blessing of your holiness immediately that you may | learn to keep it in your own awareness. |
| W1:44.5 | Your mind is no longer wholly untrained. You are quite ready to | learn the form of exercise we will use today, but you may find that |
| W1:R1.4 | at your stage of learning. It will be necessary, however, that you | learn to require no special settings in which to apply what you have |
| W1:R1.5 | them and seeking a haven of isolation for yourself. You will yet | learn that peace is part of you and requires only that you be there |
| W1:R1.5 | to embrace any situation in which you are. And finally you will | learn that there is no limit to where you are, so that your peace is |
| W1:51.2 | has no meaning. It is necessary that I recognize this, that I may | learn to see. What I think I see now is taking the place of vision. I |
| W1:52.4 | Let me understand that I am trying to use time against God. Let me | learn to give the past away, realizing that in so doing I am giving |
| W1:63.1 | the power to bring peace to every mind! How blessed are you who can | learn to recognize the means for letting this be done through you! |
| W1:64.2 | purpose in them. To the Holy Spirit, the world is a place where you | learn to forgive yourself what you think of as your sins. In this |
| W1:72.14 | to close our eyes and stop our ears. Now we would see and hear and | learn. “What is salvation, Father?” Ask and you will be answered. |
| W1:78.6 | him behind the grievances that we have held against him, you will | learn that what lay hidden while you saw him not is there in everyone |
| W1:81.7 | Let this help me | learn what forgiveness means. Let me not separate my function from my |
| W1:83.5 | is my happiness because both come from the same Source. And I must | learn to recognize what makes me happy if I would find happiness. |
| W1:99.14 | shares your function here, and let Him teach you what you need to | learn to lay all fear aside and know your Self as Love Which has no |
| W1:102.6 | there, awaiting but your choice. You cannot fail to find it when you | learn it is your choice and that you share God's Will. |
| W1:105.4 | Accept God's peace and joy, and you will | learn a different way of looking at a gift. God's gifts will never |
| W1:106.6 | salvation. It is here and will today be given unto you. And you will | learn your function from the One Who chose it in your Father's Name |
| W1:108.6 | To | learn that giving and receiving are the same has special usefulness |
| W1:110.2 | as it is. It is enough to let time be the means for all the world to | learn escape from time and every change that time appears to bring in |
| W1:R3.3 | carefully concealed behind a cloak of situations you cannot control. | Learn to distinguish situations which are poorly suited to your |
| W1:R3.11 | periods are planned to help you form the habit of applying what you | learn each day to everything you do. |
| W1:R3.14 | forget how little you have learned. Do not forget how much you can | learn now. Do not forget your Father's need of you as you review |
| W1:119.3 | are one in truth. I will forgive all things today, that I may | learn how to accept the truth in me and come to recognize my |
| W1:121.6 | than yourself, who represents the other Self in you. Through Him you | learn how to forgive the self you think you made and let it |
| W1:121.7 | And as its hope, do you become your own. The unforgiving mind must | learn through your forgiveness that it has been saved from hell. And |
| W1:121.7 | it has been saved from hell. And as you teach salvation, you will | learn. |
| W1:121.8 | Today we practice learning to forgive. If you are willing, you can | learn today to take the key to happiness and use it on your own |
| W1:121.9 | believe that giving and receiving are the same. Yet we will try to | learn today that they are one through practicing forgiving toward one |
| W1:121.9 | of as an enemy and one whom you consider as a friend. And as you | learn to see them both as one, we will extend the lesson to yourself |
| W1:126.12 | All that I give is given to myself. The Help I need to | learn that this is true is with me now. And I will trust in Him. |
| W1:127.9 | waiting for salvation disappears before the timelessness of what you | learn. Let us give thanks today that we are spared a future like the |
| W1:127.10 | in strength and health to shed its blessing upon all who come to | learn to cast aside the world they thought was made in hate to be |
| W1:127.11 | an hour think of one who makes the journey with you and who came to | learn what you must learn. And as he comes to mind, give him this |
| W1:127.11 | who makes the journey with you and who came to learn what you must | learn. And as he comes to mind, give him this message from your Self: |
| W1:127.12 | with the Love of God which I would share with you. For I would | learn the joyous lesson that there is no love but God's and yours and |
| W1:130.6 | made a choice as all-embracing as its opposite. What we would | learn today is more than just the lesson that you cannot see two |
| W1:131.5 | Be glad that search you must. Be glad as well to | learn you search for Heaven and must find the goal you really want. |
| W1:132.8 | But healing is the gift of those who are prepared to | learn there is no world and can accept the lesson now. Their |
| W1:133.4 | choose. The choosing you can do; indeed you must. But it is wise to | learn the laws you set in motion when you choose and what |
| W1:133.6 | you make brings everything to you or nothing. Therefore, if you | learn the tests by which you can distinguish everything from nothing, |
| W1:135.24 | I am attacked. But in defenselessness, I will be strong, and I will | learn what my defenses hide. |
| W1:135.27 | the light of hope reborn in you, for now you come without defense to | learn the part for you within the plan of God. What little plans or |
| W1:135.28 | of all the happiness that comes to you without your planning. | Learn today. And all the world will take this giant stride and |
| W1:139.7 | they will come again until the time Atonement is accepted, and they | learn it is impossible to doubt yourself and not to be aware of what |
| W1:139.13 | cobwebs which the world would weave around the holy Son of God. And | learn the fragile nature of the chains that seem to keep the |
| W1:140.14 | our minds nor offer proof to us that it is real. This will we | learn today. And we will say our prayer for healing hourly and take a |
| W1:R4.7 | Begin each day with time devoted to the preparation of your mind to | learn what each idea you will review that day can offer you in |
| W1:151.6 | You believe to doubt his vassals is to doubt yourself. Yet you must | learn to doubt their evidence will clear the way to recognize |
| W1:153.11 | and darkness holds the world in grim imprisonment. Nor will you | learn that light has come to you, and your escape has been |
| W1:153.14 | day bring the last chapter closer to the world that everyone may | learn the tales he reads of terrifying destiny, defeat of all his |
| W1:153.17 | we will quietly sit by and wait on Him and listen to His Voice and | learn what He would have us do the hour that is yet to come, while |
| W1:154.12 | Let us but | learn this lesson for today: we will not recognize what we receive |
| W1:155.3 | yet rejoiced to find they were mistaken in the choice. They cannot | learn directly from the truth because they have denied that it is so. |
| W1:157.1 | You have spent long days and nights in celebrating death. Today you | learn to feel the joy of life. |
| W1:157.2 | that we have learned already and prepares us for what we have yet to | learn. It brings us to the door where learning ceases, and we catch a |
| W1:157.3 | to rise above its laws and walk into eternity a while. This you will | learn to do increasingly, as every lesson, faithfully rehearsed, |
| W1:158.2 | creation gave. All this cannot be learned. What, then, are you to | learn to give today? Our lesson yesterday evoked a theme found early |
| W1:158.5 | The teacher does not give experience because he did not | learn it. It revealed itself to him at its appointed time. But vision |
| W1:158.10 | Thus do you | learn to give as you receive. And thus Christ's vision looks on you |
| W1:158.10 | vision looks on you as well. This lesson is not difficult to | learn if you remember in your brother you but see yourself. If he be |
| W1:161.4 | sense that it is all-encompassing. We need to see a little that we | learn a lot. |
| W1:162.4 | giving, kept complete because its sharing is unlimited. And thus you | learn to think with God. Christ's vision has restored your sight by |
| W1:166.12 | are not for you alone. What He has come to offer you, you now must | learn to give. This is the lesson that His giving holds, for He has |
| W1:168.3 | us up, taking salvation's final step Himself. All steps but this we | learn, instructed by His Voice. But finally He comes Himself and |
| W1:170.2 | swell and rage. And thus is fear protected, not escaped. Today we | learn a lesson which can save you more delay and needless misery than |
| W1:174.3 | [158] Today I | learn to give as I receive. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:182.9 | today. For He was willing to become a little child that you might | learn of Him how strong is he who comes without defenses, offering |
| W1:182.10 | little Child each time a wanderer would leave his home. For he must | learn that what he would protect is but this Child, Who comes |
| W1:189.5 | What would you see? The choice is given you. But | learn and do not let your mind forget this law of seeing: you will |
| W1:189.6 | as Itself, Its sight which is the gift Its Love bestows on us. We | learn the way today. It is as sure as Love Itself, to Which it |
| W1:191.6 | you are the holy Son of God Himself. And with this holy thought, you | learn as well that you have freed the world. You have no need to use |
| W1:193.5 | These are the lessons God would have you | learn. His Will reflects them all, and they reflect His loving |
| W1:193.10 | Shall we not | learn to say these words when we are tempted to believe that pain is |
| W1:193.10 | is real and death becomes our choice instead of life? Shall we not | learn to say these words when we have understood their power to |
| W1:193.11 | wrong or someone else is failing to perceive the lesson he should | learn? Does pain seem real in the perception? If it does, be sure the |
| W1:193.12 | it. Would you now renounce your own salvation? Would you fail to | learn the simple lessons Heaven's Teacher sets before you that all |
| W1:193.13 | All things are lessons God would have you | learn. He would not leave an unforgiving thought without correction |
| W1:193.15 | truth His teaching is. His are the lessons God would have us | learn. |
| W1:193.17 | eternal in the world of time. This is the lesson God would have you | learn: there is a way to look on everything that lets it be to you |
| W1:194.6 | to temptation, you extend your learning to the world. And as you | learn to see salvation in all things, so will the world perceive that |
| W1:195.1 | Gratitude is a lesson hard to | learn for those who look upon the world amiss. The most that they can |
| W1:195.9 | Today we | learn to think of gratitude in place of anger, malice, and revenge. |
| W1:196.2 | Yet must it fail to understand the truth it uses thus. But you can | learn to see these foolish applications and deny the meaning they |
| W1:197.6 | and you will think that what is given you has been withdrawn. But | learn to let forgiveness take away the sins you think you see outside |
| W1:198.5 | And is it not a kindness to yourself to hear His Voice and | learn the simple lessons He would teach, instead of trying to dismiss |
| W1:200.7 | see that, as he looks on it, the world can but deceive? Yet can he | learn to look on it another way and find the peace of God. |
| W1:R6.2 | all and let them blend as one, as each contributes to the whole we | learn. |
| W1:213.1 | [193] All things are lessons God would have me | learn. A lesson is a miracle which God offers to me in place of |
| W1:213.1 | God offers to me in place of thoughts I made that hurt me. What I | learn of Him becomes the way I am set free. And so I choose to learn |
| W1:213.1 | I learn of Him becomes the way I am set free. And so I choose to | learn His lessons and forget my own. I am not a body. I am free. For |
| W2:WF.4 | his failure to forgive. But he who would forgive himself must | learn to welcome truth exactly as it is. |
| W2:273.1 | is not yet feasible, we are content and even more than satisfied to | learn how such a day can be achieved. If we give way to a |
| W2:273.1 | such a day can be achieved. If we give way to a disturbance, let us | learn how to dismiss it and return to peace. We need but tell our |
| W2:275.1 | has this day been chosen as the time when we will seek and hear and | learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For the Voice of God tells |
| W2:275.1 | the Voice of God tells us of things we cannot understand alone, nor | learn apart. It is in this that all things are protected. And in this |
| W2:296.2 | We teach today what we would | learn and that alone. And so our learning goal becomes an |
| W2:319.1 | what one gains totality must lose. And yet it is the Will of God I | learn that what one gains is given unto all. |
| W2:321.2 | has established. And how sure is all the world's salvation when we | learn our freedom can be found in God alone. |
| W2:327.1 | has promised He will hear my call and answer me Himself. Let me but | learn from my experience that this is true, and faith in Him must |
| W2:337.1 | more. God has already done all things that need be done. And I must | learn I need do nothing of myself, for I need but accept my Self, my |
| W2:338.2 | will fail. And I will have thoughts that will frighten me until I | learn that You have given me the only Thought which leads me to |
| W2:343.2 | that must be freely given and received, and it is this that we would | learn today. |
| W2:346.2 | today, we will remember nothing but the peace of God. For we will | learn today what peace is ours when we forget all things except God's |
| W2:349.1 | accept gives me a miracle to give. And giving as I would receive, I | learn Your healing miracles belong to me. |
| W2:WAI.5 | Him, and carrying His Word to everyone whom He has sent to us, we | learn that it is written on our hearts. And thus our minds are |
| W2:359.1 | so abides forever and forever. Such are we. And we rejoice to | learn that we have made mistakes which have no real effects on us. |
| W2:FL.6 | to Him and say we did not understand and ask Him to help us to | learn His lessons through the Voice of His own Teacher. Would He hurt |
| M:I.1 | time. The course, on the other hand, emphasizes that to teach is to | learn, so that teacher and learner are the same. It also emphasizes |
| M:I.2 | or the other is true all the time. From your demonstration, others | learn and so do you. The question is not whether you will teach, for |
| M:I.2 | of choosing what you want to teach on the basis of what you want to | learn. You cannot give to someone else, and this you learn through |
| M:I.2 | you want to learn. You cannot give to someone else, and this you | learn through teaching. Teaching is but a call to witnesses to attest |
| M:I.3 | of any situation on behalf of what you really teach and therefore | learn. To this the verbal content of your teaching is quite |
| M:2.1 | waits on his choice but not whom he will serve. When he is ready to | learn, the opportunities to teach will be provided for him. |
| M:2.3 | not free to choose the curriculum or even the form in which you will | learn it. You are free, however, to decide when you want to learn it. |
| M:2.3 | you will learn it. You are free, however, to decide when you want to | learn it. And as you accept it, it is already learned. |
| M:2.5 | from one another fade and grow dim and disappear. Those who would | learn the same course share one interest and one goal. And thus he |
| M:3.1 | of God as sinless. There is no one from whom a teacher of God cannot | learn, so there is no one whom he cannot teach. However, from a |
| M:3.4 | situation is maximal in the sense that each person involved will | learn the most that he can from the other person at that time. In |
| M:3.5 | other for some time, and perhaps for life. Yet should they decide to | learn it, the perfect lesson is before them and can be learned. And |
| M:3.5 | lesson is before them and can be learned. And if they decide to | learn that lesson, they become the saviors of the teachers who falter |
| M:4.7 | realized as yet how wholly impossible such a demand would be. He can | learn this only as he actually does give up the valueless. Through |
| M:4.9 | a state that may remain impossible for a long, long time. He must | learn to lay all judgment aside and ask only what he really wants in |
| M:4.13 | honesty and shatters trust. No teacher of God can judge and hope to | learn. |
| M:4.14 | and its replacement by insanity. No teacher of God but must | learn—and fairly early in his training—that harmfulness |
| M:4.14 | and suspicious. It will make the Holy Spirit's lessons impossible to | learn. Nor can God's Teacher be heard at all except by those who |
| M:13.1 | all lessons, it is an illusion, for in reality there is nothing to | learn. Yet this illusion must be replaced by a corrective device, |
| M:13.8 | of everything. What would you teach? Remember only what you would | learn. For it is here that your concern should be. Atonement is for |
| M:13.8 | it, and your learning gives it. The world contains it not, but | learn this course and it is yours. God holds out His Word to you, for |
| M:14.3 | of orders of difficulty is an obstacle the teacher of God must | learn to pass by and leave behind. One sin perfectly forgiven by one |
| M:14.4 | of the teacher of God in this concluding lesson? He need merely | learn how to approach it, to be willing to go in its direction. He |
| M:14.4 | merely trust that, if God's Voice tells him it is a lesson he can | learn, he can learn it. He does not judge it either as hard or easy. |

| M:18.2 | God's teachers’ major lesson is to | learn how to react to magic thoughts wholly without anger. Only in |
| M:20.4 | you may not recognize that you have picked it up again. But you will | learn, as you remember even faintly now what happiness was yours |
| M:21.4 | as yet unable to hear in silence. The teacher of God must, however, | learn to use words in a new way. Gradually, he learns how to let his |

| Tx:6.28 | want and leads directly to excluding you from your brothers. We have | learned, however, that there is another use of projection. Every |
| Tx:6.40 | that you are not what you are. You cannot teach what you have not | learned, and what you teach you strengthen in yourselves because you |
| Tx:6.43 | is possible in this. Teach attack in any form, and you have | learned it, and it will hurt you. Yet your learning is not immortal, |
| Tx:6.73 | the first lesson seems to contain a contradiction since it is being | learned by a conflicted mind. This means conflicting motivation, and |
| Tx:6.73 | mind. This means conflicting motivation, and so the lesson cannot be | learned consistently as yet. Further, the mind of the learner |
| Tx:6.92 | exception demonstrates that you perceive its wholeness and have | learned that it is one. Now you must be vigilant to hold its oneness |
| Tx:7.2 | for God and His Kingdom. By accepting this power as yours, you have | learned to be what you are. |
| Tx:7.22 | The ego does not want to teach everyone all it has | learned, because that would defeat its purpose. Therefore, it does |
| Tx:7.22 | use what the ego has made to teach the opposite of what the ego has | learned. The kind of learning is as irrelevant as is the particular |
| Tx:7.24 | be able to perform all aspects of your work with ease when you have | learned this course. To the ego there appears to be no connection, |
| Tx:7.40 | can act like the mind and is therefore self-sufficient. Yet we have | learned that behavior is not the level for either teaching or |
| Tx:7.40 | do believe. An inconsistent lesson will be poorly taught and poorly | learned. If you teach both sickness and healing, you are both a poor |
| Tx:7.110 | learns this lesson has become the perfect teacher, because he has | learned it of the Holy Spirit, Who wants to teach him everything He |
| Tx:8.1 | course. Peace is. As the prerequisite for knowledge, peace must be | learned. This is only because those who are in conflict are not |
| Tx:8.11 | that you want to oppose God's Will. This unnatural lesson cannot be | learned, but the attempt to learn it is a violation of your own |
| Tx:8.13 | you, because it is not God's Will to be without you. When you have | learned that your will is God's, you could no more will to be without |
| Tx:8.32 | How else can it be, if God's Kingdom is freedom? Freedom cannot be | learned by tyranny of any kind, and the perfect equality of all God's |
| Tx:8.49 | not hide it. He has revealed it to me, because I asked it of Him and | learned of what He had already given. Our function is to function |
| Tx:9.13 | because they speak of ideas which are eternal. Forgiveness that is | learned of me does not use fear to undo fear. Nor does it make real |
| Tx:9.36 | in eternity, where they cannot be separated. When you have | learned that they are the same, the need for time is over. |
| Tx:10.5 | You have | learned your need of healing. Would you bring anything else to the |
| Tx:10.19 | him? And yet the invitation must come from you, for you have surely | learned that whom you invite as your guest will abide with you. |
| Tx:10.40 | you will be looking at is the source of fear, but you have surely | learned by now that fear is not real. We have accepted the fact |
| Tx:10.61 | beliefs, [and with them, different perceptions. For perceptions are | learned with beliefs,] and experience teaches. I am leading you to a |
| Tx:10.76 | accept it, for understanding is your inheritance. Perceptions are | learned, and you are not without a Teacher. Yet your willingness to |
| Tx:10.76 | of Him depends on your willingness to question everything you have | learned of yourself, for you who have learned amiss should not be |
| Tx:10.76 | question everything you have learned of yourself, for you who have | learned amiss should not be your own teachers. |
| Tx:11.10 | to you in learning to perceive attack as a call for love. We have | learned surely that fear and attack are inevitably associated. If |
| Tx:11.24 | you are among them. Consider how perfectly your lesson would be | learned if you were unwilling to share their poverty. For poverty is |
| Tx:11.48 | lead to successful learning. You cannot transfer what you have not | learned, and the impairment of the ability to generalize is a crucial |
| Tx:11.48 | For if they could interpret the aids correctly, they would have | learned from them. |
| Tx:11.61 | the right guidance, for learning is invisible, and what has been | learned can be recognized only by its results. Its generalization is |
| Tx:11.61 | use it in more and more situations. You will recognize that you have | learned there is no order of difficulty in miracles when you have |
| Tx:12.46 | Yet this is unnatural because it is delusional. When you have | learned to look upon everyone with no reference at all to the past, |
| Tx:12.64 | you follow Him, you will rejoice that you have found His company and | learned of Him the joyful journey home. You wait but for yourself. To |
| Tx:13.8 | your brothers as yourself, you will be released to knowledge, having | learned to free yourself of Him Who knows of freedom. Unite with me |
| Tx:13.40 | for by them you learn what to avoid and what to seek. When you have | learned this, you will find the answer that makes the need for any |
| Tx:13.40 | disappear. Truth comes of its own will unto its own. When you have | learned that you belong to truth, it will flow lightly over you |
| Tx:13.45 | The Holy Spirit cannot fail to undo for you everything you have | learned that teaches you what is not true must be reconciled with |
| Tx:13.61 | you would be a happy learner, you must give everything that you have | learned over to the Holy Spirit to be unlearned for you. And then |
| Tx:13.92 | When you have | learned how to decide with God, all decisions become as easy and as |
| Tx:14.9 | it. Who is there but wishes to be free of pain? He may not yet have | learned how to exchange his guilt for innocence nor realize that only |
| Tx:14.45 | is healing, without regard for what is brought to it. Those who have | learned to offer only healing because of the reflection of holiness |
| Tx:14.57 | you what you are, restoring to you your identity. We have already | learned that this identity is shared. The miracle becomes the means |
| Tx:14.60 | learning gives the present no meaning at all. Nothing you have ever | learned can help you understand the present or teach you how to undo |
| Tx:14.61 | abandon you. And so you have another lesson sent from Him, already | learned for every Child of light by Him to Whom God gave it. This |
| Tx:14.62 | And He will gladly exchange each one for the bright lesson He has | learned for you. Never believe that any lesson you have learned apart |
| Tx:14.62 | He has learned for you. Never believe that any lesson you have | learned apart from Him means anything. |
| Tx:14.63 | You have one test, as sure as God, by which to recognize if what you | learned is true. If you are wholly free of fear of any kind, and if |
| Tx:14.63 | you share in your perfect peace, then you can be sure that you have | learned God's lesson and not yours. Unless all this is true, there |
| Tx:14.64 | part is very simple. You need only recognize that everything you | learned you do not want. Ask to be taught and do not use your |
| Tx:14.64 | be taught and do not use your experiences to confirm what you have | learned. When your peace is threatened or disturbed in any way, say |
| Tx:15.31 | learn not for yourself alone, no more than I did. It is because I | learned for you that you can learn of me. I would but teach you what |
| Tx:15.32 | nothing but His Will. Accept no less, remembering that everything I | learned is yours. What my Father loves, I love as He does, and I can |
| Tx:15.32 | it as what it is not than He can. And no more can you. When you have | learned to accept what you are, you will make no more gifts to offer |
| Tx:15.46 | is the ego's chief learning device, for it is in the past that you | learned to define your own needs and acquired methods for meeting |
| Tx:15.76 | And despite the evident insanity of this lesson, you have | learned it. |
| Tx:16.3 | it in your own way. You do not know what healing is. All you have | learned of empathy is from the past. And there is nothing from the |
| Tx:16.10 | cannot see how it can be extended to include everyone. And you have | learned that it must include everyone to be holy. Concern yourselves |
| Tx:16.21 | You have taught well, and yet you have not | learned how to accept the comfort of your teaching. If you will |
| Tx:16.22 | You have taught freedom, but you have not | learned how to be free. We once said, “By their fruits ye shall know |
| Tx:16.23 | Does not the fact that you have not | learned what you have taught show you that you do not perceive the |
| Tx:16.24 | Yet within you is everything you taught. What can it be that has not | learned it? It must be this that is really outside yourself, not by |
| Tx:16.26 | it. But with them you must learn that you but taught yourself and | learned from the conviction you shared with them. |
| Tx:17.9 | accomplishment of all in God's plan of Atonement. All else is | learned, but this is given, complete and wholly perfect. No one but |
| Tx:17.9 | himself, the real perception, born of the new perspective he has | learned, has served its purpose. |
| Tx:17.44 | a major step toward the perception of the real world, is | learned. It is the old unholy relationship transformed and seen anew. |
| Tx:17.56 | free you from their results. And learning this, you will have also | learned how to release all the Sonship and offer it in gladness and |
| Tx:18.66 | of success. This course does not attempt to teach more than they | learned in time, but it does aim at saving time. You are attempting |
| Tx:18.96 | Love is not | learned. Its meaning lies in itself. And learning ends when you have |
| Tx:18.96 | is the interference; that is what needs to be undone. Love is not | learned because there never was a time in which you knew it not. |
| Tx:18.96 | and yours of Him so far transcend all learning that everything you | learned is meaningless, replaced forever by the knowledge of love and |
| Tx:19.15 | is still a learning goal, no longer needed when the lesson has been | learned. Yet truth will stay forever. |
| Tx:19.98 | the fear of God unterrified unless he has accepted the Atonement and | learned illusions are not real. No one can stand before this obstacle |
| Tx:20.31 | all temptation to imprison and to be imprisoned. It is of them who | learned of freedom that you should ask what freedom is. Ask not the |
| Tx:20.56 | value now to you than its unholy seeming counterpart, and you have | learned you really want but one. This is no time for sadness. Perhaps |
| Tx:20.65 | through the means of sin? Judgment you taught yourself; vision is | learned from Him Who would undo your teaching. His vision cannot see |
| Tx:21.5 | deny. Your question is whether the means by which this course is | learned will bring to you the joy it promises. If you believed it |
| Tx:21.5 | that vision gives you more than judgment does, and you have | learned that both you cannot have. |
| Tx:21.6 | adjustments to it. They think they know their way about in it. They | learned it, not through joyous lessons, but through the stern |
| Tx:21.6 | blind. This they do not believe. And so they keep the world they | learned to “see” in their imagination, believing that their choice is |
| Tx:21.6 | that their choice is that or nothing. They hate the world they | learned through pain. And everything they think is in it serves to |
| Tx:21.9 | remember, yet you are afraid, believing you would lose the world you | learned since then. And yet you know that nothing in the world you |
| Tx:21.9 | learned since then. And yet you know that nothing in the world you | learned is half so dear as this. Listen and see if you remember an |
| Tx:21.45 | tells you, and it follows perfectly from what you have already | learned. |
| Tx:21.85 | the thinker that he can be killed. And so he dies because of what he | learned. He goes from life to death, the final proof he valued the |
| Tx:22.44 | it for himself could find it difficult. For by receiving it, he | learned it was not given him alone. Such is the function of a holy |
| Tx:23.13 | their little reach. You will remember what you know when you have | learned you cannot be in conflict. One illusion about yourself can |
| Tx:24.69 | This course makes no attempt to teach what cannot easily be | learned. Its scope does not exceed your own, except to say that what |
| Tx:27.40 | represent the questions, they add nothing new, and nothing has been | learned. |
| Tx:27.49 | that it may be healed. It needs one lesson which has perfectly been | learned. And then when you forget it will the world remind you gently |
| Tx:27.86 | unless you failed to recognize it is your dream. This single lesson | learned will set you free from suffering, whatever form it takes. |
| Tx:27.87 | repeat this one inclusive lesson of deliverance until it has been | learned, regardless of the form of suffering that brings you pain. |
| Tx:27.89 | rest, and all of them are easily undone by but a single lesson truly | learned. Salvation is a secret you have kept but from yourself. The |
| Tx:30.61 | perfectly fulfilled. The real world is a state in which the mind has | learned how easily do idols go when they are still perceived, but |
| Tx:30.73 | upon itself. If you can see your brother merits pardon, you have | learned forgiveness is your right as much as his. Nor will you think |
| Tx:30.85 | and everything you see. You do not have to judge, for you have | learned one meaning has been given everything, and you are glad to |
| Tx:31.3 | No one who understands what you have | learned, how carefully you have learned it, and the pains to which |
| Tx:31.3 | No one who understands what you have learned, how carefully you have | learned it, and the pains to which you went to practice and repeat |
| Tx:31.4 | Who could maintain that lessons such as these are easy? Yet you have | learned more than this. You have continued, taking every step, |
| Tx:31.5 | than It. And this has learning sought to demonstrate, and you have | learned what it was made to teach. Now does your ancient overlearning |
| Tx:31.7 | The lessons to be | learned are only two. Each has its outcome in a different world. And |
| Tx:31.11 | hear, you answer. And behold! Your answer is the proof of what you | learned. Its outcome is the world you look upon. |
| Tx:31.12 | Let us be still an instant and forget all things we ever | learned, all thoughts we had, and every preconception which we hold |
| Tx:31.16 | role of leadership. And this is what you made your brother for and | learned to think that this his purpose is. Unless he serves it, he |
| Tx:31.21 | Think not ancient thoughts. Forget the dismal lessons that you | learned about this Son of God who calls to you. Christ calls to all |
| Tx:31.22 | Be very still an instant. Come without all thought of what you ever | learned before and put aside all images you made. The old will fall |
| Tx:31.35 | nowhere, lost their hope. And yet this was the time they could have | learned their greatest lesson. All must reach this point and go |
| Tx:31.36 | to try another road, another person, or another place when you have | learned the way the lesson starts but do not yet perceive what it is |
| Tx:31.36 | and understand you but waste time unless you go beyond what you have | learned to what is yet to learn. For from this lowest point will |
| Tx:31.49 | Concepts are | learned. They are not natural. Apart from learning, they do not |
| Tx:31.51 | ease at times and some distress, there is no shattering of what was | learned, but just a re-translation of what seems to be the evidence |
| Tx:31.51 | you do not yet perceive that this is what you think, you surely | learned by now that you behave as if it were. Does he react for you? |
| Tx:31.77 | that can be miserable and remain in hell and torment? Who has | learned to see his brother not as this has saved himself, and thus is |
| W1:7.9 | if you drop it? What do you know about this cup except what you | learned in the past? You would have no idea what this cup is except |
| W1:R1.4 | learn to require no special settings in which to apply what you have | learned. You will need it most in situations which appear to be |
| W1:64.2 | since this was the purpose of the body itself. Yet we have | learned that the Holy Spirit has another use for all the illusions |
| W1:98.4 | who took the stand we take today will gladly offer us all that they | learned and every gain they made. Those still uncertain too will join |
| W1:106.7 | given away, it will remain with you forever. And the lesson has been | learned. |
| W1:R3.9 | and then go on your way to other things without applying what you | learned to them. As a result, you have gained little reinforcement |
| W1:R3.14 | Do not forget how little you have | learned. Do not forget how much you can learn now. Do not forget your |
| W1:121.6 | sin. As sin was an idea you taught yourself, forgiveness must be | learned by you as well, but from a Teacher other than yourself, who |
| W1:121.12 | your mind to one you call a friend. Try to transfer the light you | learned to see around your former “enemy” to him. Perceive him now as |
| W1:133.1 | what seems theoretical and far from what the student has already | learned, to bring him back to practical concerns. This we will do |
| W1:135.17 | The mind that plans is thus refusing to allow for change. What it has | learned before becomes the basis for its future goals. Its past |
| W1:138.3 | There is no sense of gain, for nothing is accomplished; nothing | learned. |
| W1:138.5 | Choosing depends on learning. But the truth cannot be | learned but only recognized. In recognition its acceptance lies, and |
| W1:151.2 | the body's eyes. Nor do you ask why you believe it, even though you | learned a long while since your senses do deceive. That you believe |
| W1:153.11 | His Will is but their own. And while you fail to teach what you have | learned, salvation waits and darkness holds the world in grim |
| W1:157.2 | now—a fresh experience that sheds a light on all that we have | learned already and prepares us for what we have yet to learn. It |
| W1:158.2 | which you give, for that is what creation gave. All this cannot be | learned. What, then, are you to learn to give today? Our lesson |
| W1:166.13 | but pursue their wishes. It is you who teach them now. For you have | learned of Christ there is another way for them to walk. Teach them |
| W1:167.2 | be a state that is life's opposite. You call it death. Yet we have | learned that the idea of death takes many forms. It is the one idea |
| W1:169.3 | Grace is not | learned. The final step must go beyond all learning. Grace is not the |
| W1:169.7 | is beyond experience we try to hasten. Yet forgiveness, taught and | learned, brings with it the experiences which bear witness that the |
| W1:185.5 | nothing more than all the others. Dreams are one to him. And he has | learned their only difference is one of form, for one will bring the |
| W1:185.6 | no form in which the lesson will meet with acceptance and be truly | learned. |
| W1:187.2 | thing away, your body's eyes will not perceive it yours. Yet we have | learned that things but represent the thoughts that make them. And |
| W1:189.7 | all thoughts of what you are and what God is, all concepts you have | learned about the world, all images you hold about yourself. Empty |
| W1:189.7 | with you one thought the past has taught nor one belief you ever | learned before from anything. Forget this world, forget this course, |
| W1:193.11 | seem real in the perception? If it does, be sure the lesson is not | learned. And there remains an unforgiveness hiding in the mind which |
| W1:R6.1 | of these ideas alone would be sufficient for salvation, if it were | learned truly. Each would be enough to give release to you and to the |
| W2:300.2 | have lost our way a while. But we have listened to Your Voice and | learned exactly what to do to be restored to Heaven and our true |
| W2:301.2 | joy in them. We wept because we did not understand. But we have | learned the world we saw was false, and we will look upon God's world |
| W2:315.1 | pointing out the way to me and giving me his certainty that what he | learned is surely mine as well. |
| W2:338.1 | single thought is everyone released at last from fear. Now he has | learned that no one frightens him and nothing can endanger him. He |

| M:2.3 | made long since appear to be open, yet to be made. What has been | learned and understood and long ago passed by is looked upon as a new |
| M:2.3 | when you want to learn it. And as you accept it, it is already | learned. |
| M:3.4 | to be the end of the relationship a real end. Again, each has | learned the most he can at the time. Yet all who meet will someday |

| M:4.5 | These changes are always helpful. When the teacher of God has | learned that much, he goes on to the second stage. |
| M:4.6 | of sorting-out.” This is always somewhat difficult, because, having | learned that the changes in his life are always helpful, he must now |
| M:4.6 | valued before will merely hinder his ability to transfer what he has | learned to new situations as they arise. Because he has valued what |
| M:4.8 | his learning. Now he begins to see the transfer value of what he has | learned. Its potential is literally staggering, and the teacher of |
| M:4.9 | know what was valuable and what was valueless. All that he really | learned so far was that he did not want the valueless and that he did |
| M:4.9 | system, had made it impossible for him to judge. He thought he had | learned willingness, but now he sees that he does not know what the |

| M:4.18 | of the word; in fact, it is a meaning that must be learned and | learned very carefully. Like all the other attributes of God's |
| M:12.6 | to look on dreams a while. It is a conscious choice. For they have | learned that all choices are made consciously, with full awareness of |
| M:15.3 | What is your judgment on the world, teacher of God? Have you yet | learned to stand aside and hear the Voice of Judgment in yourself? Or |
| M:16.11 | that it can. And so it is their function to make sure that they have | learned it. No risk is possible throughout the day except to put your |

| Tx:5.41 | you do not understand it. The Holy Spirit can deal with an unwilling | learner without going counter to his will because part of his will is |
| Tx:6.70 | them, even though it was quite apparent that I was not. An insane | learner learns strange lessons. |
| Tx:6.72 | Increasing motivation for change in the | learner is all that a teacher need do to guarantee change. This is |
| Tx:6.73 | cannot be learned consistently as yet. Further, the mind of the | learner projects its own split, and thus does not perceive consistent |
| Tx:6.74 | clarity of the Holy Spirit's Voice makes it impossible for the | learner not to listen. For a time, then, he is receiving conflicting |
| Tx:7.18 | that confusion interferes with meaning and therefore prevents the | learner from appreciating it. There is no confusion in the Kingdom, |
| Tx:7.40 | both sickness and healing, you are both a poor teacher and a poor | learner. |
| Tx:7.85 | Remember that a conflicted teacher is a poor teacher and a poor | learner. His lessons are confused, and their transfer value is |
| Tx:8.60 | There is nothing so frustrating to a | learner as to be placed in a curriculum which he cannot learn. His |
| Tx:8.66 | that joy could possibly result is a clear-cut indication of a poor | learner. He has accepted a learning goal in obvious contradiction to |
| Tx:10.17 | understanding, and the more you practice it, the better teacher and | learner you become. If you have denied truth, what better witnesses |
| Tx:11.46 | love with a split mind because a split mind has made itself a poor | learner. You tried to make the separation eternal because you wanted |
| Tx:13.54 | The Holy Spirit needs a happy | learner in whom His mission can be happily accomplished. You who are |
| Tx:13.61 | If you would be a happy | learner, you must give everything that you have learned over to the |
| Tx:13.62 | The happy | learner meets the conditions of learning here, as he also meets the |
| Tx:13.64 | the same as that which interferes with all your thinking. The happy | learner cannot feel guilty about learning. This is so essential to |
| Tx:13.64 | to learning that it should never be forgotten. The guiltless | learner learns so easily because his thoughts are free. Yet this |
| Tx:15.1 | His teaching function until you have become such a consistent | learner that you learn only of Him. When this has happened, you will |
| Tx:16.6 | yet they have a Redeemer. Attempt to teach Him not. You are the | learner; He the Teacher. Do not confuse your role with His, for this |
| Tx:16.27 | joy of teaching will yet be yours. For the joy of teaching is in the | learner, who offers it to the teacher in gratitude and shares it with |
| Tx:18.35 | you are interfering with the lesson by believing that you make the | learner different. You did not make the learner, nor can you make him |

| Tx:5.20 | is the final lesson that I learned, and God's Sons are as equal as | learners as they are as Souls. The Voice of the Holy Spirit is the |

| Tx:7.40 | do not believe. To do this, however, will weaken you as teachers and | learners because, as has been repeatedly emphasized, you teach what |

| Tx:4.73 | in mind. As a teacher with some experience, let me remind you that | learning and wanting to learn are inseparable. All learners learn |
| Tx:4.77 | favorite ego devices for impeding the strong-willed from making real | learning progress. The problems of squaring the circle and carrying |
| Tx:4.85 | is always involved or you would not believe that you are here. In | learning to escape from the illusions you have made, your great debt |
| Tx:5.12 | is at last possible. Transfer depends on common elements in the old | learning and the new situation to which it is transferred. Perception |
| Tx:5.27 | resembles true creation. You understand the role of “models” in the | learning process and the importance of the models you value and |
| Tx:5.43 | for a mind that is in opposition. Correct and learn and be open to | learning. You have not made truth, but truth can still set you free. |
| Tx:5.52 | I heard one voice because I had learned that | learning is attained by teaching. I understood that I could not atone |
| Tx:5.82 | is merely redundant. We have repeatedly said that time is a | learning device which will be abolished when it is no longer useful. |
| Tx:5.86 | The concept of fixation as Freud saw it has a number of | learning advantages. First, it recognizes that man can be fixated at |
| Tx:6.2 | what you believe. You have been asked to take me as your model for | learning, since an extreme example is a particularly helpful learning |
| Tx:6.2 | for learning, since an extreme example is a particularly helpful | learning device. Everyone teaches and teaches all the time. This is a |
| Tx:6.4 | like the value of any teaching device, lies solely in the kind of | learning it facilitates. It can be and has been misunderstood. This |
| Tx:6.6 | is fully understood as only that, I cannot serve as a real model for | learning. |
| Tx:6.16 | you will have learned of me and will be as eager to share your | learning as I am. The crucifixion cannot be shared, because it is the |
| Tx:6.39 | and being are examples, to which we can also add teaching and being, | learning and being and, above all, projecting and being. This is |
| Tx:6.40 | because you are sharing it. Every lesson you teach you are | learning. |
| Tx:6.43 | in any form, and you have learned it, and it will hurt you. Yet your | learning is not immortal, and you can unlearn it by not teaching it. |
| Tx:6.43 | learn it of you. The only way to have peace is to teach peace. By | learning it through projection, it becomes a part of what you know, |
| Tx:6.44 | the conviction of teaching. Remember that, if teaching is being and | learning is being, [then] teaching is learning. Everything you teach, |
| Tx:6.44 | that, if teaching is being and learning is being, [then] teaching is | learning. Everything you teach, you are learning. Teach only love, |
| Tx:6.44 | is being, [then] teaching is learning. Everything you teach, you are | learning. Teach only love, and learn that love is yours and you are |
| Tx:6.49 | to persuade the mind, which is real, that the mind is its own | learning device and that the learning device is more real than it is. |
| Tx:6.49 | which is real, that the mind is its own learning device and that the | learning device is more real than it is. No one in his right mind |
| Tx:6.62 | Spirit, as always, takes what you have made and translates it into a | learning device for you. Again as always, He re-interprets what the |
| Tx:6.75 | surely do as long as you accept both, you are teaching conflict and | learning it. Yet you do want peace, or you would not have called upon |
| Tx:6.92 | Transfer, which is extension, is a measure of | learning, because it is its measurable result. This, however, does |
| Tx:6.92 | is immeasurable because it was created by the Immeasurable, the | learning itself must be incomplete. To teach the whole Sonship |
| Tx:7.14 | form, since outside the Kingdom teaching is mandatory, because | learning is essential. This form of the law clearly implies that you |
| Tx:7.14 | therefore believe they are. In the Kingdom there is no teaching or | learning, because there is no belief. There is only certainty. God |
| Tx:7.16 | knowledge of what truth is. This is your inheritance and requires no | learning at all, but when you disinherited yourselves, you became |

| Tx:7.17 | No one questions the intimate connection of learning and memory. | Learning is impossible without memory, since it cannot be consistent |
| Tx:7.21 | or divided. Yet one thing is certain—abilities are potentials for | learning, and you will apply them to what you want to learn. Learning |
| Tx:7.21 | for learning, and you will apply them to what you want to learn. | Learning is effort, and effort means will. We have used the term |
| Tx:7.22 | made to teach the opposite of what the ego has learned. The kind of | learning is as irrelevant as is the particular ability which was |
| Tx:7.22 | as irrelevant as is the particular ability which was applied to the | learning. You could not have a better example of the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:7.22 | course. The Holy Spirit has taken very diversified areas of your | learning and has applied them to a unified curriculum. The fact that |
| Tx:7.22 | unified curriculum. The fact that this was not the ego's reason for | learning is totally irrelevant. |
| Tx:7.35 | knows you only as whole. By healing you learn of wholeness, and by | learning of wholeness you learn to remember God. You have forgotten |
| Tx:7.40 | have learned that behavior is not the level for either teaching or | learning. This must be so, since you can act in accordance with what |
| Tx:7.47 | equally desirable in return. His teaching is limited, because he is | learning so little. His healing lesson is limited by his own |
| Tx:7.47 | is limited by his own ingratitude, which is a lesson in sickness. | Learning is constant and so vital in its power for change that a Son |
| Tx:7.48 | that it is changeless. When you heal that is exactly what you are | learning. You are recognizing the changeless mind in your brother by |
| Tx:7.106 | miracle is thus a lesson in truth, and by offering truth you are | learning the difference between pain and joy. |
| Tx:8.1 | is implicit in your objection. Knowledge is not the motivation for | learning this course. Peace is. As the prerequisite for knowledge, |
| Tx:8.2 | allegiance. The distraction of the ego seems to interfere with your | learning, but the ego has no power to distract you unless you give it |
| Tx:8.4 | you cannot understand the state which prevails within it. Your past | learning must have taught you the wrong things simply because it has |
| Tx:8.5 | If | learning aims at change, and that is always its purpose, are you |
| Tx:8.5 | that is always its purpose, are you satisfied with the changes your | learning has brought you? Dissatisfaction with learning outcomes must |
| Tx:8.5 | with the changes your learning has brought you? Dissatisfaction with | learning outcomes must be a sign of learning failure since it means |
| Tx:8.5 | you? Dissatisfaction with learning outcomes must be a sign of | learning failure since it means that you did not get what you want. |
| Tx:8.7 | about everything. Their joint curriculum presents an impossible | learning task. They are teaching you entirely different things in |
| Tx:8.8 | for choice. Only one Teacher knows what your reality is. If | learning that is the purpose of the curriculum, you must learn it of |
| Tx:8.9 | it as your future teacher? Yet the ego has done more harm to your | learning than this alone. Learning is joyful if it leads you along |
| Tx:8.9 | Yet the ego has done more harm to your learning than this alone. | Learning is joyful if it leads you along your natural path and |
| Tx:8.9 | you are taught against your nature, however, you will lose by your | learning because your learning will imprison you. Your will is in |
| Tx:8.9 | your nature, however, you will lose by your learning because your | learning will imprison you. Your will is in your nature and therefore |
| Tx:8.16 | light and can therefore teach it to you. There is no limit on your | learning, because there is no limit on your minds. There is no limit |
| Tx:8.21 | Whenever you are with a brother, you are | learning what you are because you are teaching what you are. He will |
| Tx:8.60 | and he must become depressed. Being faced with an impossible | learning situation, regardless of why it is impossible, is the most |
| Tx:8.60 | because it is a curriculum of joy. Whenever the reaction to | learning is depression, it is only because the goal of the curriculum |
| Tx:8.64 | One Light in Which it can be really understood at all. To confuse a | learning device with a curriculum goal is a fundamental confusion. |
| Tx:8.64 | a learning device with a curriculum goal is a fundamental confusion. | Learning can hardly be arrested at its own aids with hope of |
| Tx:8.64 | of understanding either the aids or the learning's real purpose. | Learning must lead beyond the body to the reestablishment of the |
| Tx:8.65 | is the mind's function. The opposite of joy is depression. When your | learning promotes depression instead of joy, you cannot be listening |
| Tx:8.65 | you cannot be listening to God's joyous Teacher, and you must be | learning amiss. To see a body as anything except a means of pure |
| Tx:8.66 | Are you willing to accept this, when your whole purpose for | learning should be to escape from limitations? To conceive of the |
| Tx:8.66 | is a clear-cut indication of a poor learner. He has accepted a | learning goal in obvious contradiction to the unified purpose of the |
| Tx:8.77 | A | learning device is not a teacher. It cannot tell you how you feel. |
| Tx:8.77 | because you have accepted the ego's confusion, and you think that a | learning device can tell you how you feel. Sickness is merely another |
| Tx:9.8 | learn this, but you do need to learn to want this, and for this all | learning was made. This is the Holy Spirit's good use of an ability |
| Tx:9.8 | it. He will teach you how to see yourself without condemnation by | learning how to look on everything without it. Condemnation will then |
| Tx:9.29 | course is a guide to behavior. Being a very direct and very simple | learning situation, it provides the Guide who tells you what to do. |
| Tx:9.33 | will you accept them? Only they can teach you what you are, and your | learning is the result of what you taught them. What you call upon in |
| Tx:10.50 | God's purpose could be defeated, and this is impossible. Only by | learning what fear is, can you finally learn to distinguish the |
| Tx:10.61 | of experience, which you will become less and less willing to deny. | Learning of Christ is easy, for to perceive with Him involves no |
| Tx:11.10 | it, He will reinterpret it. That is the ultimate value to you in | learning to perceive attack as a call for love. We have learned |
| Tx:11.23 | organized, well-structured, and carefully planned program aimed at | learning how to offer to the Holy Spirit everything you do not want. |
| Tx:11.46 | is not of you, and poor learners need special teaching. You have | learning handicaps in a very literal sense. |
| Tx:11.47 | There are areas in your | learning skills which are so impaired that you can progress only |
| Tx:11.47 | He becomes your resource because, of yourself, you cannot learn. The | learning situation in which you placed yourself is impossible, and in |
| Tx:11.48 | try to set up curriculum goals where yours have clearly failed. Your | learning goal has been not to learn, and this cannot lead to |
| Tx:11.48 | goal has been not to learn, and this cannot lead to successful | learning. You cannot transfer what you have not learned, and the |
| Tx:11.48 | and the impairment of the ability to generalize is a crucial | learning failure. Would you ask those who have failed to learn what |
| Tx:11.48 | learning failure. Would you ask those who have failed to learn what | learning aids are for? They do not know. For if they could interpret |
| Tx:11.49 | teaching aid, every real instruction, and every sensible guide to | learning will be misinterpreted. For they are all for learning |
| Tx:11.49 | guide to learning will be misinterpreted. For they are all for | learning facilitation, which this strange curriculum goal is against. |
| Tx:11.50 | A necessary minor, supplementing this major curriculum goal, is | learning how not to overcome the split which made this goal |
| Tx:11.50 | made this goal believable. And you can not overcome it, for all your | learning is on its behalf. Yet your will speaks against your |
| Tx:11.50 | your learning is on its behalf. Yet your will speaks against your | learning, as your learning speaks against your will, and so you fight |
| Tx:11.50 | on its behalf. Yet your will speaks against your learning, as your | learning speaks against your will, and so you fight against learning |
| Tx:11.50 | as your learning speaks against your will, and so you fight against | learning and succeed, for that is your will. But you do not realize |
| Tx:11.51 | of an honest appraisal of what you have taught yourselves and of the | learning outcomes which have resulted. Under the proper learning |
| Tx:11.51 | and of the learning outcomes which have resulted. Under the proper | learning conditions, which you can neither provide nor understand, |
| Tx:11.51 | teachers. But it is not so yet and will not be so until the whole | learning situation as you have set it up is reversed. |
| Tx:11.52 | Your | learning potential, properly understood, is limitless because it will |
| Tx:11.52 | it if you follow the Teacher Who knows it and His curriculum for | learning it. The curriculum is totally unambiguous because the goal |
| Tx:11.52 | to learn aright, and nothing can oppose the Will of God's Son. His | learning is as unlimited as he is. |
| Tx:11.59 | identical. [Only the ability to make this transfer is the product of | learning.] As you perceive more and more common elements in all |
| Tx:11.61 | Miracles demonstrate that | learning has occurred under the right guidance, for learning is |
| Tx:11.61 | demonstrate that learning has occurred under the right guidance, for | learning is invisible, and what has been learned can be recognized |
| Tx:12.7 | and you still lack faith in it. You must, then, believe that by not | learning the course, you are protecting yourself. And you do not |
| Tx:13.47 | Yet in this world, you do not know it. But you have the means for | learning it and seeing it quite clearly. The Holy Spirit uses logic |
| Tx:13.49 | you must have let guilt go, accepting the Atonement for yourself and | learning you are guiltless. How could you learn what has been done |
| Tx:13.54 | You do not realize that the foundation on which this most peculiar | learning goal depends means absolutely nothing. It does make sense to |
| Tx:13.61 | what is builded there is true and built on truth. The universe of | learning will open up before you in all its gracious simplicity. With |
| Tx:13.62 | The happy learner meets the conditions of | learning here, as he also meets the conditions of knowledge in the |
| Tx:13.64 | Learning will be commensurate with motivation, and the interference | |
| Tx:13.64 | with motivation, and the interference in your motivation for | learning is exactly the same as that which interferes with all your |
| Tx:13.64 | with all your thinking. The happy learner cannot feel guilty about | learning. This is so essential to learning that it should never be |
| Tx:13.64 | learner cannot feel guilty about learning. This is so essential to | learning that it should never be forgotten. The guiltless learner |
| Tx:13.66 | make with guilt and escape the pain which only guiltlessness allays. | Learning is living here, as creating is being in Heaven. Whenever the |
| Tx:13.70 | darkness, he became afraid of darkness and of light. The joy of | learning that darkness has no power over the Son of God is the happy |
| Tx:13.87 | but cannot know that you are one with Him. This need not be taught. | Learning applies only to the condition in which it happens of itself. |
| Tx:14.10 | in the unified curriculum of the Atonement. There is no unity of | learning goals apart from this. There is no conflict in this |
| Tx:14.58 | Yet the essential thing is | learning that you do not know. Knowledge is power, and all power is |
| Tx:14.58 | all that stands between you and the power of God in you is but your | learning of the false and your attempts to undo the true. |
| Tx:14.60 | taught yourselves in the past by showing you only what you are now. | Learning has been accomplished before its effects are manifest. |
| Tx:14.60 | now. Learning has been accomplished before its effects are manifest. | Learning is therefore in the past, but its influence determines the |
| Tx:14.60 | the present by giving it whatever meaning it holds for you. Your | learning gives the present no meaning at all. Nothing you have ever |
| Tx:14.65 | I do not know how to respond to it. And I will not use my own past | learning as the light to guide me now. |
| Tx:14.72 | they will not learn. They have destroyed their motivation for | learning by thinking they already know. Think not you understand |
| Tx:15.1 | cannot be satisfied with His teaching until it constitutes all your | learning. He has not fulfilled His teaching function until you have |
| Tx:15.16 | gently in Him. In the blessed instant, you will let go all your past | learning, and the Holy Spirit will quickly offer you the whole lesson |
| Tx:15.16 | whole lesson of peace. What can take time, when all the obstacles to | learning it have been removed? Truth is so far beyond time that all |
| Tx:15.35 | This course is not beyond immediate | learning unless you prefer to believe that what God wills takes time. |
| Tx:15.45 | The holy instant is the Holy Spirit's most useful | learning device for teaching you love's meaning. For its purpose is |
| Tx:15.46 | The past is the ego's chief | learning device, for it is in the past that you learned to define |
| Tx:15.48 | relationships, which you have chosen to support the ego, as a | learning experience which points to truth. Under His teaching, every |
| Tx:15.79 | The holy instant does not replace the need for | learning, for the Holy Spirit must not leave you as your Teacher |
| Tx:16.22 | effect are very clear in the ego's thought system because all your | learning has been directed towards establishing the relationship |
| Tx:16.27 | This year you will begin to learn and make | learning commensurate with teaching. You have chosen this by your own |
| Tx:16.57 | to know yourself. Its whole thought system is a carefully contrived | learning experience designed to lead away from truth and into |
| Tx:16.57 | designed to lead away from truth and into fantasy. Yet for every | learning that would hurt you, God offers you correction and complete |
| Tx:17.10 | when it has been perfected, for everything that has been used for | learning will have no function. Nothing will ever change; no shifts |
| Tx:17.56 | to correct all your mistakes and free you from their results. And | learning this, you will have also learned how to release all the |
| Tx:18.35 | to teach you what they are. If you maintain you are unworthy of | learning this, you are interfering with the lesson by believing that |
| Tx:18.95 | need remember only that whoever attains the real world, beyond which | learning cannot go, will go beyond it but in a different way. Where |
| Tx:18.95 | learning cannot go, will go beyond it but in a different way. Where | learning ends there God begins, for learning ends before Him Who is |
| Tx:18.95 | it but in a different way. Where learning ends there God begins, for | learning ends before Him Who is complete where He begins and where |

| Tx:31.5 | Learning is an ability you made and gave yourselves. It was not made | |

| Tx:31.58 | confusion every time there is a shift, but be you thankful that the | learning of the world is loosening its grasp upon your mind. And be |

| W1:14.3 | The idea for today is another step in | learning to let go the thoughts which you have written on the world, |
| W1:18.1 | The idea for today is another step in | learning that the thoughts which give rise to what you see are never |

| W1:25.5 | It is crucial to your | learning to be willing to give up the goals you have established for |

| W1:105.3 | gifts you give and leaves you nothing in the ones you take. A major | learning goal this course has set is to reverse your view of giving, |
| W1:106.12 | away, so you can teach the world what giving means by listening and | learning it of Him. Do not forget today to reinforce your choice to |

| W1:121.8 | Teacher Who was given you to show the way to you. Today we practice | learning to forgive. If you are willing, you can learn today to take |
| W1:121.8 | will devote ten minutes in the morning and at night another ten to | learning how to give forgiveness and receive forgiveness too. |
| W1:133.14 | What is the gain to you in | learning this? It is far more than merely letting you make choices |
| W1:135.16 | own provisions. Time becomes a future emphasis to be controlled by | learning and experience obtained from past events and previous |
| W1:135.28 | engage in weaving plans, remind yourself this is a special day for | learning, and acknowledge it with this: |

| W1:157.3 | you to feel a touch of Heaven, though you will return to paths of | learning. Yet you have come far enough along the way to alter time |
| W1:157.9 | holiest. This you will never teach, for you attained it not through | learning. Yet the vision speaks of your remembrance of what you knew |

| W1:169.1 | leads beyond the world entirely. It is past learning yet the goal of | learning, for grace cannot come until the mind prepares itself for |
| W1:169.3 | Grace is not learned. The final step must go beyond all | learning. Grace is not the goal this course aspires to attain. Yet we |
| W1:169.7 | offer was concealed from Him Who teaches what forgiveness means. All | learning was already in His Mind, accomplished and complete. He |
| W1:169.14 | Our | learning goal today does not exceed this prayer, yet in the world, |
| W1:184.5 | alien names and thousands more. Yet you believe this is what | learning means—its one essential goal by which communication is |
| W1:184.7 | Such is the teaching of the world. It is a phase of | learning everyone who comes must go through. But the sooner he |
| W1:184.7 | how doubtful its results, the sooner does he question its effects. | Learning which stops with what the world would teach stops short of |
| W1:184.7 | place, it serves but as a starting point from which another kind of | learning can begin, a new perception can be gained, and all the |
| W1:184.10 | Thus what you need are intervals each day in which the | learning of the world becomes a transitory phase—a prison house |
| W1:184.12 | the final lesson that all things are one, and at this single lesson | learning ends. All names are unified; all space is filled with |
| W1:192.5 | perceived as what it is—a simple teaching aid to be laid by when | learning is complete, but hardly changing him who learns at all. The |
| W1:193.1 | God does not know of | learning. Yet His Will extends to what He does not understand in that |
| W1:193.7 | is the content underneath the form. It is this sameness which makes | learning sure because the lesson is so simple that it cannot be |
| W1:194.6 | repertoire, a way of quick reaction to temptation, you extend your | learning to the world. And as you learn to see salvation in all |
| W1:195.10 | Our gratitude will pave the way to Him and shorten our | learning time by more than you could ever dream of. Gratitude goes |
| W2:WIC.5 | this holy face be seen, when it is but the symbol that the time for | learning now is over and the goal of the Atonement has been reached |
| W2:WIC.5 | nothing else. As we behold His glory will we know we have no need of | learning or perception or of time, or anything except the holy Self, |
| W2:WIHS.2 | of fear to those of love. And when this is entirely accomplished, | learning has achieved the only goal it has in truth. For learning, as |
| W2:WIHS.2 | learning has achieved the only goal it has in truth. For | learning, as the Holy Spirit guides it to the outcome He perceives |
| W2:296.2 | We teach today what we would learn and that alone. And so our | learning goal becomes an unconflicted one and possible of easy reach |
| W2:WISC.3 | the Holy Spirit teaches, making way for the Last Judgment, in which | learning ends in one last summary that will extend beyond itself and |
| W2:353.1 | Nothing is mine alone, for He and I have joined in purpose. Thus has | learning come almost to its appointed end. A while I work with Him to |

| M:2.5 | the teaching. God's Teacher speaks to any two who join together for | learning purposes. The relationship is holy because of that purpose, |
| M:3.5 | teaching-learning situations in which each person is given a chosen | learning partner who presents him with unlimited opportunities for |
| M:3.5 | learning partner who presents him with unlimited opportunities for | learning. These relationships are generally few, because their |
| M:4.1 | characteristic of all teachers of God who have advanced in their own | learning. In this respect they are all alike. |
| M:4.3 | ability to fulfill their function rests. Perception is the result of | learning. In fact, perception is learning, because cause and effect |
| M:4.3 | rests. Perception is the result of learning. In fact, perception is | learning, because cause and effect are never separated. The teachers |
| M:4.6 | generalize the lesson for fear of loss and sacrifice. It takes great | learning to understand that all things, events, encounters, and |
| M:4.8 | of God rests a while in reasonable peace. Now he consolidates his | learning. Now he begins to see the transfer value of what he has |
| M:4.10 | And finally, there is a “period of achievement.” It is here that | learning is consolidated. Now what was seen as merely shadows before |
| M:4.10 | Indeed, the tranquility is their result—the outcome of honest | learning, consistency of thought, and full transfer. This is the |
| M:4.13 | teacher of God's whole thought system. Let this be lost, and all his | learning goes. Without judgment are all things equally acceptable, |
| M:4.14 | therefore on one's self. It is the end of peace and the denial of | learning. It demonstrates the absence of God's curriculum and its |
| M:4.21 | Does he still select some aspects of his life to bring to his | learning while keeping others apart? If so, his advancement is |
| M:4.24 | of the curriculum. It paves the way for what goes far beyond all | learning. The curriculum makes no effort to exceed its legitimate |
| M:4.24 | its legitimate goal. Forgiveness is its single aim at which all | learning ultimately converges. It is indeed enough. |
| M:4.25 | here. What God has given is so far beyond our curriculum that | learning but disappears in its presence. Yet while its presence is |
| M:4.25 | the curriculum. It is the function of God's teachers to bring true | learning to the world. Properly speaking it is unlearning that they |
| M:5.7 | cause and effect in their true sequence in one respect, and the | learning will generalize and transform the world. The transfer value |
| M:10.3 | The aim of our curriculum, unlike the goal of the world's | learning, is the recognition that judgment in the usual sense is |
| M:12.1 | answer to this question is “one.” One wholly perfect teacher whose | learning is complete suffices. This One, sanctified and redeemed, |

| W1:93.12 | hour for these exercises. Try, however, to do so when you can. At | least remember to repeat these thoughts each hour: |
| W1:93.14 | Then try to devote at | least a minute or so to closing your eyes and realizing that this is |
| W1:94.7 | of practicing for the first five minutes of every hour, at | least remind yourself hourly: |
| W1:97.3 | Each time you practice, awareness is brought a little nearer at | least; sometimes a thousand years or more are saved. The minutes |

| W1:102.1 | it buys you what you want. Yet this belief is surely shaken now, at | least enough to let you question it and to suspect it really makes no |
| W1:105.11 | not think that less is worthless when you cannot give Him more. At | least remember hourly to say the words which call on Him to give you |
| W1:R3.8 | five minutes of your waking day to it. If this cannot be done, at | least try to divide them so you undertake one in the morning and the |

| W1:135.9 | protection is not real. The body, valueless and hardly worth the | least defense, need merely be perceived as quite apart from you, and |
| W1:153.15 | the daily thought as long as possible. Five minutes now becomes the | least we give to preparation for a day in which salvation is the only |

| Tx:18.87 | Spirit through seeming terror, trusting Him not to abandon you and | leave you there. For it is not His purpose to frighten you, but only |
| Tx:19.60 | rob you of. This is what you believe that it would dispossess and | leave you homeless. And it is this for which you would deny a home to |
| Tx:19.96 | you if you but raise your eyes. Yet all that will occur is you will | leave the world forever. This is the reestablishment of your will. |

| Tx:20.53 | Idols must disappear and | leave no trace behind their going. The unholy instant of their |
| Tx:20.59 | over. To the extent you still experience it, you are refusing to | leave the means to Him Who changed the purpose. You recognize you |
| Tx:21.21 | the power to make God powerless and so to take it for himself and | leave himself without what God has willed for him. This is the mad |

| Tx:23.5 | as eternity. Do not let time intrude upon your sight of him. | Leave him not frightened and alone in his temptation but help him |
| Tx:23.52 | and above all, a loss of peace. This you know well. When it occurs, | leave not your place on high but quickly choose a miracle instead of |
| Tx:24.4 | to disrupt your peace. For it is at their mercy while you decide to | leave it there. The secret enemies of peace, your least decision to |

| Tx:24.28 | your world and hurls it into chaos. Truth is not frail. Illusions | leave it perfectly unmoved [and undisturbed]. But specialness is not |
| Tx:24.49 | that God is knowable and will be known to you. For He could never | leave His own creation. And the sign that this is so lies in your |
| Tx:25.35 | rest you found extend, so that your peace can never fall away and | leave you homeless. Those who offer peace to everyone have found a |
| Tx:25.38 | attack, can fail to think it must be guilty to deserve the wish and | leave him innocent? And who would see the Son of God as innocent and |
| Tx:25.86 | dust and grow until they cover everything that you perceive and | leave you fair to no one. Not one right do you believe you have. And |
| Tx:26.49 | of it. For it is real and dwells where all reality must be. Ideas | leave not their source, and their effects but seem to be apart from |
| Tx:26.59 | where the belief arose. Here is the firm conviction that ideas can | leave their source made real and meaningful. And from this error does |

| Tx:26.60 | but cannot make it be what it is not. And to believe ideas can | leave their source is to invite illusions to be true, without |
| Tx:26.81 | held apart from light is given up, that light may shine on it, and | leave no space nor distance lingering between the light of Heaven and |
| Tx:27.27 | as shared, it must correct mistakes in both of you. It cannot | leave mistakes in one unhealed and set the other free. That is |
| Tx:27.28 | forgiveness are the same. With half a mind, this is not understood. | Leave then correction to the mind that is united, functioning as one |
| Tx:27.32 | made that would enhance the invitation's real appeal. For what you | leave as vacant, God will fill, and where He is, there must the truth |

| Tx:28.35 | lies and gently shows you that you never sinned. The miracle would | leave no proof of guilt to bring you witness to what never was. And |
| Tx:29.1 | in His Love. Be wary, then; let Him not come too close, and | leave a gap between you and His love through which you can escape if |
| Tx:29.7 | and how frequently you have demanded that love go away and | leave you quietly alone in “peace.” |
| Tx:29.25 | from them. Thus it is the miracle does not select some dreams to | leave untouched by its beneficence. You cannot dream some dreams and |
| Tx:29.54 | real and seen outside the mind. Yet it is still a thought and cannot | leave the mind that is its source. Nor is its form apart from the |
| Tx:30.34 | name. Unless you do your will, you are not free. And would God | leave His Son without what he has chosen for himself? God but ensured |
| Tx:31.9 | not share the universal will that it be whole and that you do not | leave its call unheard. Without your answer is it left to die, as it |
| Tx:31.58 | be you sure and happy in the confidence that it will go at last and | leave your mind at peace. The role of the accuser will appear in many |
| Tx:31.87 | to you and gently says, “My brother, choose again.” He would not | leave one source of pain unhealed nor any image left to veil the |
| Tx:31.87 | all misery from you, whom God created altars unto joy.] He would not | leave you comfortless, alone in dreams of hell, but would release |
| W1:41.6 | You are trying to reach past all these things. You are trying to | leave appearances and approach reality. |
| W1:44.5 | The reason is very simple. While you practice in this form, you | leave behind everything that you now believe and all the thoughts |
| W1:45.2 | or to make one. Nor do the thoughts you think with the Mind of God | leave your mind, because thoughts do not leave their source. |
| W1:45.2 | think with the Mind of God leave your mind, because thoughts do not | leave their source. Therefore your thoughts are in the Mind of God, |
| W1:45.4 | form that we used in applying yesterday's idea. We will attempt to | leave the unreal and seek for the real. We will deny the world in |
| W1:57.2 | them off merely by desiring to do so. The prison door is open. I can | leave it simply by walking out. Nothing holds me in this world. Only |
| W1:63.2 | meaningless desire in its place or you will forget your function and | leave the Son of God in hell. This is no idle request that is being |
| W1:R2.4 | death. You are dedicated to salvation. Be determined each day not to | leave your function unfulfilled. |
| W1:91.5 | set aside about ten minutes for a quiet time in which you try to | leave your weakness behind. This is accomplished very simply, as you |
| W1:92.8 | ask in vain to share its sight, and none who enters its abode can | leave without a miracle before his eyes and strength and light |
| W1:92.10 | strength will be the light in which the gift of sight is given you. | Leave, then, the dark a little while today, and we will practice |
| W1:125.4 | He abides forever in the holiness which He created and will never | leave. |
| W1:127.9 | thanks today that we are spared a future like the past. Today we | leave the past behind us, never more to be remembered. And we raise |
| W1:127.11 | We will remember them throughout the day because we cannot | leave a part of us outside our love if we would know our Self. At |
| W1:128.1 | of despair. No one but must accept this thought as true, if he would | leave this world behind and soar beyond its petty scope and little |
| W1:128.5 | letting go all thought of values we have given to the world. We | leave it free of purposes we gave its aspects and its phases and its |
| W1:131.10 | in what does not exist, while Heaven is the place he cannot find. | Leave foolish thoughts like these behind today, and turn your mind to |
| W1:132.6 | Ideas | leave not their source. This central theme is often stated in the |
| W1:132.11 | yourself. There is no world apart from your ideas because ideas | leave not their source, and you maintain the world within your mind |
| W1:156.1 | surely from the basic thought so often mentioned in the text—ideas | leave not their source. If this be true, how can you be apart from |

| W1:164.8 | all things you think you want. Your trifling treasures put away and | leave a clean and open space within your mind where Christ can come |
| W1:167.3 | But its origin is where it must be changed if change occurs. Ideas | leave not their source. The emphasis this course has placed on that |
| W1:167.4 | not make, and you can never change. It is the fixed belief ideas can | leave their source and take on qualities the source does not contain, |
| W1:167.11 | whom He created in a unity of life that cannot separate in death and | leave the Source of Life from where it came. |
| W1:170.5 | premises on which the idea stands. First, it is obvious ideas must | leave their source. For it is you who make attack and must have first |
| W1:170.12 | form, and so the fear of God returned with you. This time you | leave it here. And you return to a new world unburdened by its |
| W1:182.10 | Christ is reborn as but a little Child each time a wanderer would | leave his home. For he must learn that what he would protect is but |
| W1:184.6 | which assert the world is real. It is for this they stand. They | leave no doubt that what is named is there. It can be seen, as is |
| W1:186.10 | These unsubstantial images will go and | leave your mind unclouded and serene when you accept the function |
| W1:187.9 | blessedness you will behold will take away all thought of form and | leave instead the perfect gift forever there, forever to increase, |

| W1:190.2 | It is a nightmare of abandonment by an eternal Love which could not | leave the Son whom It created out of love. |
| W1:193.13 | All things are lessons God would have you learn. He would not | leave an unforgiving thought without correction nor one thorn or nail |
| W1:197.2 | you. See yourself as bound, and bars become your home. Nor will you | leave the prison house or claim your strength until guilt and |
| W1:200.8 | Peace is the bridge that everyone will cross to | leave this world behind. But peace begins within the world perceived |
| W1:200.11 | want. Peace be to us today. For we have found a simple, happy way to | leave the world of ambiguity and to replace our shifting goals and |
| W2:I.1 | which remain are merely introductions to the times in which we | leave the world of pain and go to enter peace. Now we begin to reach |
| W2:I.6 | these holy times to You in gratitude to Him Who taught us how to | leave the world of sorrow in exchange for its replacement given us by |
| W2:225.2 | peace together. You have reached your hand to me, and I will never | leave you. We are one, and it is but this oneness that we seek as we |
| W2:243.2 | Father, today I | leave creation free to be itself. I honor all its parts, in which I |

| W2:316.1 | gift I give belongs to me. Each one allows a past mistake to go and | leave no shadow on the holy mind my Father loves. His grace is given |
| W2:331.1 | a certain way to his release? You love me, Father. You could never | leave me desolate, to die within a world of pain and cruelty. How |
| W2:FL.1 | to Him Who leads the way and makes our footsteps sure. To Him we | leave these lessons, as to Him we give our lives henceforth. For we |

| Tx:28.36 | has shown. For here, the more that anyone receives, the more is | left for all the rest to share. The Guests have brought unlimited |

| Tx:28.52 | which separates the truth from dreams and from illusions. Truth has | left no room for them in any place or time. For it fills every place |
| Tx:29.31 | of illusion lingers still. There is a place in you which time has | left, and echoes of eternity are heard. There is a resting place so |
| Tx:29.34 | that grasp in dreams of pain. They hold no sword, for they have | left their hold on every vain illusion of the world. And being empty, |
| Tx:29.58 | be. An idol is beyond where God has set all things forever and has | left no room for anything to be except His Will. Nothing and nowhere |
| Tx:29.68 | can be heard, not with the ears, but with the holiness which never | left the altar which abides forever deep within the Son of God. And |
| Tx:30.47 | its rest in its eternal home, the Thought God holds of you has never | left the mind of its Creator Whom it knows, as its Creator knows that |
| Tx:30.50 | He misunderstood what made him safe and thought that it had | left. |
| Tx:30.59 | For thus is he made ready for the step in which is all forgiveness | left behind. |

| Tx:31.9 | that you do not leave its call unheard. Without your answer is it | left to die, as it is saved from death when you have heard its |
| Tx:31.12 | to live, as you are free because an ancient learning passed away and | left a place for truth to be reborn. |
| Tx:31.41 | He has not | left His Thoughts! But you forgot His Presence and remembered not His |
| Tx:31.41 | you are will lead you to confusion and despair. Yet has He never | left His Thoughts to die, without their Source forever in themselves. |

| W1:75.2 | It is a new era in which a new world is born. The old one has | left no trace upon it in its passing. Today we see a different world |
| W1:R2.1 | now ready for another review. We will begin where our last review | left off and cover two ideas each day. The earlier part of each day |
| W1:85.5 | my salvation is. It is in me because its Source is there. It has not | left its Source, and so it cannot have left my mind. I will not look |
| W1:85.5 | Source is there. It has not left its Source, and so it cannot have | left my mind. I will not look for it outside myself. It is not found |
| W1:94.5 | nor made an image to replace reality. This is the Self which never | left its home in God to walk the world uncertainly. This is the Self |
| W1:123.2 | received. Be glad today in loving thankfulness your Father has not | left you to yourself, nor let you wander in the dark alone. Be |

| W1:125.8 | and let Him tell you God has never left His Son, and you have never | left your Self. |

| W1:134.12 | step is light, and as he lifts his foot to stride ahead, a star is | left behind to point the way to those who follow him. |
| W1:140.4 | And that is cure indeed. For sickness now is gone, with nothing | left to which it can return. |
| W1:152.14 | humbly ask our Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never | left will come again to our awareness, grateful to restore His home |
| W1:153.9 | in which attack has any meaning. Now we cannot fear, for we have | left all fearful thoughts behind. And in defenselessness we stand |
| W1:153.13 | who have played that you are lost to hope, abandoned by your Father, | left alone in terror in a fearful world made mad by sin and guilt, be |

| W1:154.12 | then receive a thousand more but will not know that God Himself has | left no gift beyond what you already have nor has denied the tiniest |
| W1:155.5 | loss of every kind, for sacrifice and deprivation both are quickly | left behind. This is the way appointed for you now. You walk this |
| W1:155.10 | in the way you traveled will be gone from you as well, with nothing | left to keep the truth apart from God's completion, holy as Himself. |
| W1:158.1 | wholly unafraid because you were created out of Love. Nor have you | left your Source, remaining as you were created. This was given you |
| W1:164.5 | to obscurity. Now is the balance righted and the scales of judgment | left to Him Who judges true. And in His judgment will a world unfold |
| W1:165.2 | The Thought of God created you. It | left you not, nor have you ever been apart from It an instant. It |
| W1:165.2 | holding you one with It, and everything is one with you because It | left you not. The Thought of God protects you, cares for you, makes |
| W1:165.2 | everlasting life shine in your mind because the Thought of God has | left you not and still abides with you. |

| W1:197.9 | to anyone who makes your Self complete. And from this Self is no one | left outside. Give thanks for all the countless channels which extend |
| W2:I.4 | His Voice, He would not fail to take when we invited Him. He has not | left His Son in all his madness nor betrayed His trust in him. Has |

| W2:280.1 | for him, but only in illusions, not in truth. No Thought of God has | left its Father's Mind. No Thought of God is limited at all. No |
| W2:289.2 | have offered me Your own replacement in a present world the past has | left untouched and free of sin. Here is the end of guilt. And here am |
| W2:319.1 | thought from which all arrogance has been removed, and only truth is | left. For arrogance opposes truth. But where there is no arrogance, |
| W2:319.1 | the truth will come immediately and fill up the space the ego | left unoccupied by lies. Only the ego can be limited, and therefore |

| Tx:6.9 | You are merely asked to follow my example in the face of much | less extreme temptations to misperceive and not to accept them |
| Tx:6.64 | Sons of God, and that is full appreciation. Nothing more and nothing | less. Without a range, an order of difficulty is meaningless, and |
| Tx:6.74 | its only alternative here since the other one, which would be much | less acceptable to it, would obviously be that it is insane. The |
| Tx:7.19 | was there in terms of amount. The “nothing” is neither greater nor | less because of what is absent. |
| Tx:9.33 | all as one. Only God Himself is more than they, but they are not | less than He is. Would you know what this means? If what you do to my |

| Tx:10.61 | I am leading you to a new kind of experience, which you will become | less and less willing to deny. Learning of Christ is easy, for to |
| Tx:10.61 | you to a new kind of experience, which you will become less and | less willing to deny. Learning of Christ is easy, for to perceive |
| Tx:13.20 | you would not have displaced the guilt onto what you believed to be | less fearful. You are therefore willing with little opposition to |
| Tx:13.24 | the past, but with each one each day be born again. A minute, even | less, will be enough to free you from the past and give your mind in |
| Tx:13.56 | Nothing is so alien to you as the simple truth, and nothing are you | less inclined to listen to. The contrast between what is true and |
| Tx:14.25 | in fear, you see no reason to believe the more you look at fear, the | less you see it, and the clearer what it conceals becomes. |
| Tx:15.26 | yourself His power. God is not willing that His Son be content with | less than everything. For He is not content without His Son, and His |
| Tx:15.26 | is not content without His Son, and His Son cannot be content with | less than his Father has given him. We asked you once before, “Would |
| Tx:15.30 | sacrifice to wake to glory. But it is a sacrifice to accept anything | less than glory. Learn that you must be worthy of the Prince of |
| Tx:15.32 | Itself. You will be content with nothing but His Will. Accept no | less, remembering that everything I learned is yours. What my Father |
| Tx:15.50 | to substitute one aspect of love for another, you have placed | less value on one and more on the other. You have not only separated |
| Tx:15.54 | to understand it. Every brother God loves as He loves you—neither | less nor more. He needs them all equally, and so do you. In time you |
| Tx:15.98 | love would demand total sacrifice. And so the ego seems to demand | less of you than God, and of the two is judged as the lesser of two |
| Tx:16.73 | your destruction to be. That this is insane is obvious. But what is | less obvious to you is that the present is useless to you while you |
| Tx:17.18 | —the more reality that enters into the unholy relationship, the | less satisfying it becomes. And the more the fantasies can encompass, |
| Tx:17.19 | of the other does not enter at all to “spoil” the dream. And the | less the other really brings to it, the “better” it becomes. Thus, |
| Tx:17.39 | for perfect clarity. The picture of darkness and of death grows | less convincing as you search it out amid its wrappings. As each |
| Tx:18.34 | with littleness. But it does require that you be not content with | less than greatness, which comes not of you. Your difficulty with the |
| Tx:18.81 | holy instant, you ask of love only what it offers everyone, neither | less nor more. Asking for everything, you will receive it. And your |
| Tx:19.5 | opposite of faithlessness. Yet the difference in how they operate is | less apparent, though it follows directly from the fundamental |
| Tx:21.1 | more than that. But though it is no more than that, it is not | less. Therefore, to you it is important. It is the witness to your |
| Tx:21.67 | you. To give is no more blessed than to receive. But neither is it | less. |
| Tx:23.15 | be the truer, the more real, and vanquisher of the illusion that was | less real, made an illusion by defeat. Thus, conflict is the choice |
| Tx:23.38 | these laws are true. The seeming gentler forms of the attack are no | less certain in their witnessing or their results. Certain it is |
| Tx:23.55 | What can conflict with everything? And what is there that offers | less, yet could be wanted more? Who with the love of God upholding |
| Tx:24.36 | it be that harmful purpose hurts the mind as one. Nothing could make | less sense to specialness. Nothing could make more sense to miracles. |
| Tx:24.60 | Now you are merely asked that you pursue another goal with far | less vigilance—with little effort and with little time and with the |
| Tx:25.44 | Somehow, the vague and more obscure seems easier to look upon; | less painful to the eyes than what is wholly clear and unambiguous. |
| Tx:25.58 | his sinfulness and all the sin he sees within the world offer him | less and less— until he comes to understand it cost him his sanity |
| Tx:25.58 | and all the sin he sees within the world offer him less and | less— until he comes to understand it cost him his sanity and |
| Tx:25.66 | by far the greater part. And in the total cost, the greater his, the | less is yours. And justice, being blind, is satisfied by being paid, |
| Tx:25.76 | Father gave the same inheritance to both. Who would have more or | less is not aware that he has everything. He is no judge of what must |
| Tx:25.79 | out his hand in willingness they be received. Nor is the treasure | less as it is given out. Each gift [received] but adds to the supply. |
| Tx:25.83 | be in miracles, unless someone deserves to suffer more and others | less? And is this justice to the wholly innocent? A miracle is |
| Tx:25.83 | It is not a special gift to some to be withheld from others as | less worthy, more condemned, and thus apart from healing. Who is |
| Tx:25.84 | to an elect and special group and kept apart from others as | less deserving, then is He ally to specialness. What He cannot |
| Tx:26.13 | Spirit does not evaluate injustices as great or small or more or | less. They have no properties to Him. They are mistakes from which |
| Tx:26.17 | For it is not your Father's Will that you should offer or receive | less than He gave when He created you in perfect love. |
| Tx:26.51 | It is impossible that one illusion be | less amenable to truth than are the rest. But it is possible that |
| Tx:26.51 | the rest. But it is possible that some are given greater value and | less willingly offered to truth for healing and for help. No illusion |
| Tx:26.61 | And this is not release. God's Son could never be content with | less than full salvation and escape from guilt. For otherwise he |
| Tx:26.83 | and the freezing cold. And shall the Lord of Heaven and His Son give | less in gratitude for so much more? |
| Tx:27.17 | here is his forgiveness proved to him. A miracle can offer nothing | less to him than it has given unto you. So does your healing show |
| Tx:27.21 | sacrifice. How could the Holy Spirit be deterred an instant, even | less, to reason with an argument for sickness such as this? And need |
| Tx:27.53 | effects. Yet all the witnesses that you behold will be far | less than all there really are. Infinity cannot be understood by |
| Tx:28.66 | its Source? From here the body can be seen as what it is and neither | less nor more in worth than the extent to which it can be used to |
| Tx:29.9 | gap is gone is peace eternal. Nothing more than that, and nothing | less. Without the fear of God, what could induce you to abandon Him? |
| Tx:29.17 | be more than this lies the idea of sickness. For it asks that God be | less than all He really is. What, then, becomes of you, for it is you |
| Tx:29.19 | from sickness and from death. For what is yours cannot be more nor | less than what is his. |
| Tx:29.28 | they exist from which the fears arise. Dreams are not wanted more or | less. They are desired or not. And each one represents some function |
| Tx:29.60 | has not many sons, but only One. Who can have more, and who be given | less? In Heaven would the Son of God but laugh if idols could intrude |
| Tx:29.60 | is within, why would you seek for idols which would make of Heaven | less, to give you more than God bestowed upon your brother and on you |
| Tx:29.60 | you as more than God. But you will never be content with being | less. |

| Tx:6.41 | That is why you must teach only one | lesson. If you are to be conflict-free yourselves, you must learn |

| Tx:6.73 | “having” appears to be the opposite of “being.” Therefore, the first | lesson seems to contain a contradiction since it is being learned by |

| Tx:6.73 | motivation. This is the real reason why in many respects the first | lesson is the hardest to learn. Still strongly aware of the ego in |
| Tx:6.74 | Upside-down as always, the ego perceives the first | lesson as insane. In fact this is its only alternative here since the |

| Tx:6.77 | perceives the conflict exactly as it is. Therefore, His second | lesson is: |

| Tx:6.86 | This is a major step toward fundamental change. Yet it is still a | lesson in thought reversal since it implies that there is something |
| Tx:6.86 | you must be vigilant against. It has advanced far from the first | lesson, which was primarily a reversal and also from the second, |
| Tx:6.87 | already that you can be as vigilant against the ego as for it. This | lesson teaches not only that you can be, but that you must be. It |

| Tx:7.24 | because the ego is discontinuous. Yet the Holy Spirit teaches one | lesson and applies it to all individuals in all situations. Being |
| Tx:7.26 | is so contradictory that it is clearly impossible. It is therefore a | lesson which you cannot really learn, and therefore cannot really |
| Tx:7.40 | emphasized, you teach what you do believe. An inconsistent | lesson will be poorly taught and poorly learned. If you teach both |
| Tx:7.47 | teaching is limited, because he is learning so little. His healing | lesson is limited by his own ingratitude, which is a lesson in |
| Tx:7.47 | His healing lesson is limited by his own ingratitude, which is a | lesson in sickness. Learning is constant and so vital in its power |
| Tx:7.48 | the ego. This does place you in a position of needing to learn a | lesson which seems contradictory—you must learn to change your mind |
| Tx:7.70 | You cannot be totally committed sometimes. Remember a very early | lesson—“Never underestimate the power of denial.” It has no power |
| Tx:7.77 | another. One Teacher is in all your minds, and He teaches the same | lesson to all. He always teaches you the inestimable worth of every |
| Tx:7.97 | your identification is maintained by extension. The miracle is a | lesson in total perception. By including any part of totality in the |
| Tx:7.97 | lesson in total perception. By including any part of totality in the | lesson, you have included the whole. You have said that when you |
| Tx:7.106 | is what you are], you are denying joy. The miracle is therefore a | lesson in what joy is. Being a lesson in sharing, it is a lesson in |
| Tx:7.106 | joy. The miracle is therefore a lesson in what joy is. Being a | lesson in sharing, it is a lesson in love, which is joy. Every |
| Tx:7.106 | a lesson in what joy is. Being a lesson in sharing, it is a | lesson in love, which is joy. Every miracle is thus a lesson in |
| Tx:7.106 | it is a lesson in love, which is joy. Every miracle is thus a | lesson in truth, and by offering truth you are learning the |
| Tx:7.110 | to teach the Kingdom to the Kingdom. There are no exceptions to this | lesson, because the lack of exceptions is the lesson. Every Son who |
| Tx:7.110 | no exceptions to this lesson, because the lack of exceptions is the | lesson. Every Son who returns to the Kingdom with this lesson in his |
| Tx:7.110 | is the lesson. Every Son who returns to the Kingdom with this | lesson in his heart has healed the Sonship and given thanks to God. |
| Tx:7.110 | healed the Sonship and given thanks to God. Everyone who learns this | lesson has become the perfect teacher, because he has learned it of |
| Tx:8.10 | His Voice teaches only His Will, but that is not the Holy Spirit's | lesson because that is what you are. The lesson is that your will and |
| Tx:8.10 | is not the Holy Spirit's lesson because that is what you are. The | lesson is that your will and God's cannot be out of accord, because |
| Tx:8.11 | to teach you that you want to oppose God's Will. This unnatural | lesson cannot be learned, but the attempt to learn it is a violation |
| Tx:8.32 | equal in will, all being the Will of their Father. This is the only | lesson I came to teach, knowing that it is true. |
| Tx:8.55 | use it for attack. In the service of uniting, it becomes a beautiful | lesson in communion, which has value until communion is. This is |
| Tx:9.11 | The Atonement is a | lesson in sharing, which is given you because you have forgotten how |
| Tx:10.17 | Healing thus becomes a | lesson in understanding, and the more you practice it, the better |
| Tx:10.39 | looking honestly for truth. The “dynamics” of the ego will be our | lesson for a while, for we must look first at this to look beyond it |
| Tx:10.41 | look upon darkness through light must dispel it. Let us begin this | lesson in “ego dynamics” by understanding that the term itself does |
| Tx:11.24 | to help them since you are among them. Consider how perfectly your | lesson would be learned if you were unwilling to share their poverty. |
| Tx:11.88 | condemned because he has never condemned. The Atonement is the final | lesson he need learn, for it teaches him that, never having sinned, |
| Tx:13.43 | of God's sleeping Son holds no power over him. He will learn the | lesson of awaking. God watches over him, and light surrounds him. |
| Tx:13.56 | seeing where you are but knowing you are elsewhere, begins His | lesson in simplicity with the fundamental teaching that truth is |
| Tx:13.56 | the fundamental teaching that truth is true. This is the hardest | lesson you will ever learn, and in the end the only one. Simplicity |
| Tx:13.59 | see in you more than you see. They will be happy learners of the | lesson which this light brings to them because it teaches them |
| Tx:13.62 | For truth is true. What else could ever be or ever was? This simple | lesson holds the key to the dark door which you believe is locked |
| Tx:13.70 | learning that darkness has no power over the Son of God is the happy | lesson the Holy Spirit teaches and would have you teach with Him. It |
| Tx:13.71 | The way to teach this simple | lesson is merely this: guiltlessness is invulnerability. Therefore, |
| Tx:14.11 | only this. You will not be exempt from the effects of this most holy | lesson, which seeks but to restore what is the right of God's |
| Tx:14.50 | learn that you have no basis at all for ordering your thoughts. This | lesson the Holy Spirit teaches by giving you shining examples to show |
| Tx:14.59 | For you have taught yourselves how to imprison the Son of God, a | lesson so unthinkable that only the insane, in deepest sleep, could |
| Tx:14.61 | of this course. Yet God did not abandon you. And so you have another | lesson sent from Him, already learned for every Child of light by Him |
| Tx:14.61 | learned for every Child of light by Him to Whom God gave it. This | lesson shines with God's glory, for in it lies His power, which He |
| Tx:14.62 | laid down by hands open to receive, not closed to take. Every dark | lesson that you bring to Him Who teaches light He will accept from |
| Tx:14.62 | do not want it. And He will gladly exchange each one for the bright | lesson He has learned for you. Never believe that any lesson you have |
| Tx:14.62 | for the bright lesson He has learned for you. Never believe that any | lesson you have learned apart from Him means anything. |
| Tx:14.63 | your perfect peace, then you can be sure that you have learned God's | lesson and not yours. Unless all this is true, there are dark lessons |
| Tx:14.63 | do not will for God's Son what His Father wills for him. Every dark | lesson teaches this in one form or another. And each bright lesson, |
| Tx:14.63 | dark lesson teaches this in one form or another. And each bright | lesson, with which the Holy Spirit will replace the dark ones you do |
| Tx:14.64 | Do not be concerned how you can learn a | lesson so completely different from everything you have taught |
| Tx:14.71 | against Him. For He teaches the miracle of oneness, and before His | lesson division disappears. Teach like Him here, and you will |
| Tx:15.10 | This | lesson takes no time. For what is time without a past and future? It |
| Tx:15.16 | past learning, and the Holy Spirit will quickly offer you the whole | lesson of peace. What can take time, when all the obstacles to |
| Tx:15.17 | eternal because it is wholly without fear. It will come, being the | lesson God gives you through the Teacher He has appointed to |
| Tx:15.21 | not that you will not be given help in this. God's Teacher and His | lesson will support your strength. It is only your weakness that will |
| Tx:15.24 | yourself, and one which you must learn to remember all the time. The | lesson will seem hard at first, but you will learn to love it when |
| Tx:15.48 | points to truth. Under His teaching, every relationship becomes a | lesson in love. |
| Tx:15.60 | it within itself, there was no loss. The holy instant thus becomes a | lesson in how to hold all of your brothers in your mind, experiencing |
| Tx:15.76 | is the cause of loneliness. And despite the evident insanity of this | lesson, you have learned it. |
| Tx:15.107 | as the necessary means of communication. And if you understand this | lesson, you will realize that to sacrifice the body is to sacrifice |
| Tx:15.108 | The | lesson I was born to teach and still would teach to all my brothers |
| Tx:18.35 | you are unworthy of learning this, you are interfering with the | lesson by believing that you make the learner different. You did not |
| Tx:19.15 | begin. For faith is still a learning goal, no longer needed when the | lesson has been learned. Yet truth will stay forever. |
| Tx:20.29 | lies his own salvation. And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a | lesson in giving, as the Holy Spirit interprets it.] It is the |
| Tx:24.68 | and yet it has no meaning to anyone who still retains one unlearned | lesson in his memory, one thought with purpose still uncertain, or |
| Tx:27.49 | everything the world requires that it may be healed. It needs one | lesson which has perfectly been learned. And then when you forget it |
| Tx:27.79 | the dream has but one purpose, taught in many ways. This single | lesson does it try to teach again, and still again, and yet once more |
| Tx:27.86 | on you unless you failed to recognize it is your dream. This single | lesson learned will set you free from suffering, whatever form it |
| Tx:27.87 | The Holy Spirit will repeat this one inclusive | lesson of deliverance until it has been learned, regardless of the |
| Tx:27.89 | from all the rest, and all of them are easily undone by but a single | lesson truly learned. Salvation is a secret you have kept but from |
| Tx:28.7 | yourself, for you were badly taught. And who would keep a senseless | lesson in his mind when he can learn and can preserve a better one? |
| Tx:28.10 | You need no healing to be healed. In quietness, see in the miracle a | lesson in allowing Cause to have Its own effects and doing nothing |
| Tx:28.25 | Like every | lesson which the Holy Spirit requests you learn, the miracle is |
| Tx:28.26 | the body to be victim or effect of what it made. Yet half the | lesson will not teach the whole. The miracle is useless if you learn |
| Tx:28.26 | if you learn but that the body can be healed, for this is not the | lesson it was sent to teach. The lesson is the mind was sick that |
| Tx:28.26 | can be healed, for this is not the lesson it was sent to teach. The | lesson is the mind was sick that thought the body could be sick; |
| Tx:31.1 | to be true? Only unwillingness to learn it could make such an easy | lesson difficult. How hard is it to see that what is false cannot be |
| Tx:31.2 | It teaches but the very obvious. It merely goes from one apparent | lesson to the next in easy steps which lead you gently from one to |
| Tx:31.4 | without complaint until a world was built that suited you. And every | lesson that makes up the world arises from the first accomplishment |
| Tx:31.4 | and still before its magnitude. The world began with one strange | lesson, powerful enough to render God forgotten and His Son an alien |
| Tx:31.6 | And the power of His Will is in the Voice that speaks for Him. Which | lesson will you learn? What outcome is inevitable, sure as God, and |
| Tx:31.7 | world follows surely from its source. The certain outcome of the | lesson that God's Son is guilty is the world you see. It is a world |
| Tx:31.7 | produce. However much you may have overlearned your chosen task, the | lesson which reflects the love of God is stronger still. And you will |
| Tx:31.8 | The outcome of the | lesson that God's Son is guiltless is a world in which there is no |
| Tx:31.8 | creation to the whole is heard throughout the world this second | lesson brings. |
| Tx:31.10 | The fear of God results as surely from the | lesson that His Son is guilty as God's love must be remembered when |
| Tx:31.13 | An ancient | lesson is not overcome by the opposing of the new and old. It is not |
| Tx:31.35 | And yet this was the time they could have learned their greatest | lesson. All must reach this point and go beyond it. It is true indeed |
| Tx:31.35 | there is no choice at all within the world. But this is not the | lesson in itself. The lesson has a purpose, and in this you come to |
| Tx:31.35 | at all within the world. But this is not the lesson in itself. The | lesson has a purpose, and in this you come to understand what it is |
| Tx:31.36 | another person, or another place when you have learned the way the | lesson starts but do not yet perceive what it is for? Its purpose is |
| Tx:31.36 | there is no hope of answer in the world. But do not judge the | lesson which is but begun with this. Seek not another signpost in the |
| Tx:31.36 | lead to heights of happiness in which you see the purpose of the | lesson shining clear, and perfectly within your learning grasp. |
| Tx:31.47 | Beneath the face of innocence there is a | lesson that the concept of the self was made to teach. It is a lesson |
| Tx:31.47 | is a lesson that the concept of the self was made to teach. It is a | lesson in a terrible displacement and a fear so devastating that the |
| Tx:31.47 | must forever look away, lest it perceive the treachery it hides. The | lesson teaches this: “I am the thing you made of me, and as you look |
| Tx:31.48 | Here is the central | lesson that ensures your brother is condemned eternally. For what you |
| Tx:31.51 | Thus are the Holy Spirit's | lesson plans arranged in easy steps that though there be some lack of |
| Tx:31.83 | Temptation has one | lesson it would teach in all its forms wherever it occurs. It would |
| W1:6.4 | others, remind yourself of the two cautions stated in the previous | lesson: |
| W1:90.2 | I would remember the simplicity of salvation by reinforcing the | lesson that there is one problem and one solution. The problem is a |
| W1:106.7 | everything is given away, it will remain with you forever. And the | lesson has been learned. |
| W1:108.7 | the special case of giving and receiving. We will use this simple | lesson in the obvious because it has results we cannot miss. To give |
| W1:108.13 | Our very simple | lesson for today will teach you much. Effect and cause will be far |
| W1:121.9 | friend. And as you learn to see them both as one, we will extend the | lesson to yourself and see that their escape included yours. |
| W1:127.8 | love's meaning to your clean and open mind. And He will bless the | lesson with His Love. |
| W1:127.12 | of God which I would share with you. For I would learn the joyous | lesson that there is no love but God's and yours and mine and |
| W1:130.6 | as its opposite. What we would learn today is more than just the | lesson that you cannot see two worlds. It also teaches that the one |
| W1:132.6 | in the text and must be borne in mind if you would understand the | lesson for today. It is not pride which tells you that you made the |
| W1:132.8 | those who are prepared to learn there is no world and can accept the | lesson now. Their readiness will bring the lesson to them in some |
| W1:132.8 | world and can accept the lesson now. Their readiness will bring the | lesson to them in some form which they can understand and recognize. |
| W1:132.10 | A | lesson earlier repeated once must now be stressed again, for it |
| W1:132.11 | What is the | lesson for today except another way of saying that to know your Self |
| W1:151.10 | of God, for He will judge all happenings and teach the single | lesson which they all contain. |
| W1:151.15 | are purified. So are you taught to teach the Son of God the holy | lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you hear the |
| W1:153.1 | and all the “gifts” it merely lends to take away again, attend this | lesson well. The world provides no safety. It is rooted in attack and |
| W1:154.12 | Let us but learn this | lesson for today: we will not recognize what we receive until we give |
| W1:154.13 | Our | lesson for today is stated thus: |
| W1:157.3 | eternity a while. This you will learn to do increasingly, as every | lesson, faithfully rehearsed, brings you more swiftly to this holy |
| W1:158.2 | cannot be learned. What, then, are you to learn to give today? Our | lesson yesterday evoked a theme found early in the text. Experience |
| W1:158.10 | as you receive. And thus Christ's vision looks on you as well. This | lesson is not difficult to learn if you remember in your brother you |
| W1:166.12 | He has come to offer you, you now must learn to give. This is the | lesson that His giving holds, for He has saved you from the solitude |
| W1:170.2 | and rage. And thus is fear protected, not escaped. Today we learn a | lesson which can save you more delay and needless misery than you can |
| W1:184.12 | God has no name. And yet His Name becomes the final | lesson that all things are one, and at this single lesson learning |
| W1:184.12 | becomes the final lesson that all things are one, and at this single | lesson learning ends. All names are unified; all space is filled with |
| W1:185.6 | mind which seeks for it in honesty can understand. Whatever form the | lesson takes is planned for him in such a way that he cannot mistake |
| W1:185.6 | And if he asks without sincerity, there is no form in which the | lesson will meet with acceptance and be truly learned. |
| W1:190.10 | This is the day when it is given you to realize the | lesson which contains all of salvation's power. It is this: pain is |
| W1:193.4 | Son with peace and joy fulfills His function now. He redirects each | lesson you would teach in hate to one in which forgiveness enters, |
| W1:193.4 | cannot enter, for its source has been excluded as the purpose of the | lesson has been changed to guiltlessness; the hatred has been rooted |
| W1:193.5 | all, and they reflect His loving kindness to the Son He loves. Each | lesson has a central thought, the same in all of them. The form alone |
| W1:193.7 | the form. It is this sameness which makes learning sure because the | lesson is so simple that it cannot be rejected in the end. No one can |
| W1:193.7 | as easily in all of them if one but wants to see the simple | lesson there. |
| W1:193.11 | when you are seeing wrong or someone else is failing to perceive the | lesson he should learn? Does pain seem real in the perception? If it |
| W1:193.11 | Does pain seem real in the perception? If it does, be sure the | lesson is not learned. And there remains an unforgiveness hiding in |
| W1:193.16 | a little time today, and in the days to come, in practicing the | lesson in forgiveness in the form established for the day. And try to |
| W1:193.17 | remain unbound, in peace eternal in the world of time. This is the | lesson God would have you learn: there is a way to look on everything |
| W1:194.6 | If you can see the | lesson for today as the deliverance it really is, you will not |
| W1:195.1 | Gratitude is a | lesson hard to learn for those who look upon the world amiss. The |
| W1:R6.3 | are centered round a central theme with which we start and end each | lesson. It is this: |
| W1:213.1 | [193] All things are lessons God would have me learn. A | lesson is a miracle which God offers to me in place of thoughts I |
| W2:275.1 | Let us today attend the Voice of God, Which speaks an ancient | lesson, no more true today than any other day. Yet has this day been |
| W2:286.1 | that has been chosen as the time in which I come to understand the | lesson that there is no need that I do anything. In You is every |
| M:3.5 | perhaps for life. Yet should they decide to learn it, the perfect | lesson is before them and can be learned. And if they decide to learn |
| M:3.5 | is before them and can be learned. And if they decide to learn that | lesson, they become the saviors of the teachers who falter and may |
| M:4.6 | he has valued what is really valueless, he will not generalize the | lesson for fear of loss and sacrifice. It takes great learning to |
| M:5.7 | of one true idea has no end nor limit. The final outcome of this | lesson is the remembrance of God. What do guilt and sickness, pain, |
| M:9.2 | As the teacher of God advances in his training, he learns one | lesson with increasing thoroughness. He does not make his own |
| M:12.4 | body's purpose really is; the only use there really is for it. This | lesson is enough to let the thought of unity come in, and what is one |
| M:12.5 | The central | lesson is always this—that what you use the body for, it will |
| M:13.1 | it came when there is no more use for it. Now its real meaning is a | lesson. Like all lessons, it is an illusion, for in reality there is |
| M:14.3 | this? No; it is meaningless to anyone here. Yet it is the final | lesson in which unity is restored. It goes against all the thinking |
| M:14.4 | bits and pieces of its thinking will still seem sensible. The final | lesson which brings the ending of the world cannot be grasped by |
| M:14.4 | What, then, is the function of the teacher of God in this concluding | lesson? He need merely learn how to approach it, to be willing to go |
| M:14.4 | He need merely trust that, if God's Voice tells him it is a | lesson he can learn, he can learn it. He does not judge it either as |
| M:17.1 | real to both of them. How to deal with magic thus becomes a major | lesson for the teacher of God to master. His first responsibility in |
| M:17.3 | is most apparent, and errors can be recognized by their results. A | lesson truly taught can lead to nothing but release for teacher and |
| M:18.2 | God's teachers’ major | lesson is to learn how to react to magic thoughts wholly without |
| M:21.4 | he will say. This process is merely a special case of the workbook | lesson “I will step back and let Him lead the way.” The teacher of |
| M:22.2 | a sudden and complete awareness of the perfect applicability of the | lesson of the Atonement to all situations. This, however, is |
| M:23.5 | perfect constancy. He has remained with you. Would you not learn the | lesson of salvation through his learning? Why would you choose to |
| M:28.1 | perfectly, having no function except communication. It is the | lesson in which learning ends, for it is consummated and surpassed |
lesson's (2) | ||
| Tx:31.40 | is what is given him. How utterly opposed to truth is this, when the | lesson's purpose is to teach that what your brother loses you have |
| M:17.8 | but it requires patience and abundant willingness. Given that, the | lesson's manifest simplicity stands out like an intense white light |

| Tx:2.55 | The body is a learning device for the mind. Learning devices are not | lessons in themselves. Their purpose is merely to facilitate the |
| Tx:3.18 | perfect lesson. It is the final demonstration that all of the other | lessons which I taught are true. Man is released from all errors if |

| Tx:14.63 | God's lesson and not yours. Unless all this is true, there are dark | lessons in your minds which hurt and hinder you and everyone around |
| Tx:14.68 | this fancied undependability as an excuse for keeping certain dark | lessons from Him. And by so limiting the guidance that you would |

| M:3.3 | is part of God's plan for Atonement, and His plan can have no | levels, being a reflection of His Will. Salvation is always ready and |
| M:3.3 | is always ready and always there. God's teachers work at different | levels, but the result is always the same. |
| M:3.4 | at that time. In this sense, and in this sense only, we can speak of | levels of teaching. Using the term in this way, the second level of |

| Tx:6.4 | extreme example. Its value, like the value of any teaching device, | lies solely in the kind of learning it facilitates. It can be and has |

| Tx:6.45 | His guidance. The ego does not regard itself as part of you. Herein | lies its primary perceptual error, the foundation of its whole |
| Tx:6.60 | the call to awake, whatever you have been dreaming. Nothing lasting | lies in dreams, and the Holy Spirit, shining with the light from God |
| Tx:7.50 | as you were. The whole glory and perfect joy that is the Kingdom | lies in you to give. Do you not want to give it? |
| Tx:7.91 | is how God created it. The Holy Spirit is the part of the mind that | lies between the ego and the Soul, mediating between them always in |
| Tx:7.105 | open to choice, though it may seem to be. The whole separation | lies in this fallacy. The only way out of the fallacy is to decide |
| Tx:8.33 | yourself. I will always remember you, and in my remembrance of you | lies your remembrance of yourself. In our remembrance of each other |
| Tx:8.33 | lies your remembrance of yourself. In our remembrance of each other | lies our remembrance of God, and in this remembrance lies your |
| Tx:8.33 | of each other lies our remembrance of God, and in this remembrance | lies your freedom, because your freedom is in Him. Join then with me |

| Tx:8.38 | with Him. Glory be to the union of God and His holy Sons! All glory | lies in them because they are united. The miracles we do bear witness |
| Tx:8.46 | is valuable. There can be no question of its worth because its value | lies in God's sharing Himself with it and establishing its value |

| Tx:9.55 | reality. Truth is not obscure nor hidden, but its obviousness to you | lies in the joy you bring to its witnesses, who show it to you. They |
| Tx:9.65 | done this but you? Recognize this gladly, for in this recognition | lies the realization that your banishment is not of God and therefore |

| Tx:10.33 | The peace of your Soul | lies in its limitlessness. Limit the peace you share, and your own |
| Tx:10.41 | implies the power to do something, and the whole separation fallacy | lies in the belief that the ego has the power to do anything. The ego |
| Tx:10.45 | of creation, not of autonomy. Your whole creative function | lies in your complete dependence on God, Whose function He shares |
| Tx:10.45 | you the knowledge of your dependence on God in which your freedom | lies. The ego sees all dependency as threatening and has twisted even |
| Tx:10.64 | gladly because it is the symbol of joy. Its whole compelling power | lies in the fact that it represents what you want to be. The freedom |
| Tx:10.66 | whom God has given eternal life. The dream of crucifixion still | lies heavy on your eyes, but what you see in dreams is not reality. |

| Tx:11.34 | source, and where it began it must end. For in this same place also | lies salvation. The altar of God where Christ abideth is there. |
| Tx:11.61 | sends you for your blessing. In every Child of God His blessing | lies, and in your blessing of the Children of God is His blessing to |
| Tx:11.85 | another as unworthy of love and deserving of punishment. But herein | lies the split. For the mind that judges perceives itself as separate |
| Tx:12.3 | him to death. You do not even suspect this murderous but insane idea | lies hidden there, for the ego's destructive urge is so intense that |
| Tx:12.9 | him and have never been separated from him. In this understanding | lies your remembering, for it is the recognition of love without |
| Tx:12.14 | from yourself and make you little. For you believe that magnitude | lies in defiance and that attack is grandeur. You think you have made |
| Tx:12.22 | not do this to you. Could He set you apart, knowing that your peace | lies in His Oneness? He denied you only your request for pain, for |
| Tx:12.30 | past or future, that the beginning of the appreciation of eternity | lies. For only now is here, and it presents the opportunities for the |

| Tx:12.49 | Let no dark cloud out of your past obscure him from you, for truth | lies only in the present, and you will find it if you seek it there. |
| Tx:12.50 | for it holds the only things that are forever true. All healing | lies within it because its continuity is real. It extends to all |
| Tx:12.75 | the only real need to be fulfilled in time. Salvation from the world | lies only here. My peace I give you. Take it of me in glad exchange |
| Tx:13.4 | light under His loving gaze are partial glimpses of the Heaven that | lies beyond them. |
| Tx:13.15 | Lay not his guilt upon him, for his guilt | lies in his secret that he thinks that he has done this unto you. |
| Tx:13.16 | unto yourself. In every condemnation that you offer the Son of God | lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you would have the Holy |
| Tx:13.23 | When you maintain that you are guilty but the source | lies in the past, you are not looking inward. The past is not in you. |

| Tx:13.53 | what you have made [nor escape the heavy burden of its dullness that | lies upon your minds], cannot see through it. It deceives you because |
| Tx:13.62 | he also meets the conditions of knowledge in the Kingdom. All this | lies in the Holy Spirit's plan to free you from the past and open up |
| Tx:13.76 | do not understand it. Make no decisions about what it is or where it | lies, but ask of the Holy Spirit everything and leave all decisions |
| Tx:13.80 | to anticipate all that you cannot know when all knowledge | lies behind every decision which the Holy Spirit makes for you? Learn |
| Tx:14.15 | him into it by blessing him. Holiness must be shared, for therein | lies everything that makes it holy. Come gladly to the holy circle, |
| Tx:14.16 | so its value is unknown. The hidden is kept apart, but value always | lies in joint appreciation. What is concealed cannot be loved, and so |
| Tx:14.25 | on which you have erected your insane system of belief, the truth | lies hidden. Yet you cannot know this, for by hiding truth in fear, |
| Tx:14.32 | gave you and the power He bestowed upon His guiltless Son. All this | lies hidden in every darkened place shrouded in guilt and in the dark |
| Tx:14.32 | denial of innocence. Behind the dark doors which you have closed | lies nothing, because nothing can obscure the gift of God. It is the |
| Tx:14.34 | cease. The holy meeting place of the unseparated Father and His Son | lies in the Holy Spirit and in you. All interference in the |
| Tx:14.61 | to Whom God gave it. This lesson shines with God's glory, for in it | lies His power, which He shares so gladly with His Son. |
| Tx:14.74 | Creator must encompass faith in His creation. In this consistency | lies His holiness, which He cannot abandon, for it is not His Will to |
| Tx:15.11 | more than merely hell does not exist. In this redeeming instant | lies Heaven. And Heaven will not change, for the birth into the holy |
| Tx:15.15 | Who transcends time for you understands what time is for. Holiness | lies not in time but in eternity. There never was an instant in which |
| Tx:15.38 | you willingly and gladly give over every plan but His. For there | lies peace, perfectly clear because you have been willing to meet its |
| Tx:15.41 | possible to harbor thoughts you would not share and that salvation | lies in keeping your thoughts to yourself alone. For in private |
| Tx:15.47 | For it is the complete equality of the Atonement in which salvation | lies. How can you decide that special aspects of the Sonship can give |
| Tx:15.53 | His frame of reference is simply God. The Holy Spirit's timelessness | lies only here. For in the holy instant, free of the past, you see |
| Tx:15.60 | Herein | lies peace, for here there is no conflict. In the world of scarcity, |
| Tx:15.77 | Forgiveness | lies in communication as surely as damnation lies in guilt. It is the |
| Tx:15.77 | Forgiveness lies in communication as surely as damnation | lies in guilt. It is the Holy Spirit's teaching function to instruct |
| Tx:15.84 | and yet He understands it because you have made it. In Him alone | lies the awareness of what God cannot know and what you do not |
| Tx:15.106 | to deny what love is and still recognize it. The meaning of love | lies in what you have cast outside yourself, and it has no meaning at |
| Tx:16.2 | The clearest proof that empathy as the ego uses it is destructive | lies in the fact that it is applied only to certain types of problems |
| Tx:16.7 | hopes to find love there. The power of love, which is its meaning, | lies in the strength of God, which hovers over it and blesses it |
| Tx:16.30 | Be not afraid to look upon the special hate relationship, for freedom | lies in looking at it. It would be impossible not to know the meaning |
| Tx:16.30 | that makes love meaningless to you. The extent of the split that | lies in this you do not realize. And until you do, the split will |
| Tx:16.40 | not the call of hate, and see no fantasies[, for your completion | lies in truth and nowhere else]. See in the call of hate and in every |
| Tx:16.40 | And God has never forgotten what makes Him whole. In your completion | lies the memory of His wholeness and His gratitude to you for His |
| Tx:16.47 | is and how it is accomplished. The Holy Spirit knows that completion | lies first in union and then in the extension of union. To the ego, |
| Tx:16.47 | in union and then in the extension of union. To the ego, completion | lies in triumph and in the extension of the “victory” even to the |
| Tx:16.51 | The appeal of hell | lies only in the terrible attraction of guilt, which the ego holds |
| Tx:16.51 | who place their faith in littleness. The conviction of littleness | lies in every special relationship, for only the deprived could value |
| Tx:16.56 | Salvation | lies in the simple fact that illusions are not fearful because they |
| Tx:16.57 | The core of the separation delusion | lies simply in the fantasy of destruction of love's meaning. And |
| Tx:16.60 | this is its real appeal, for the ego has taught you that freedom | lies in it. Yet the closer you look at the special relationship, the |
| Tx:16.80 | Praise be to your relationship with Him and to no other. The truth | lies here and nowhere else. You choose this or nothing. |
| Tx:17.1 | The betrayal of the Son of God | lies only in illusions, and all his “sins” are but his own imagining. |
| Tx:17.35 | for these aspects enclose the whole, complete in every aspect. Death | lies in this glittering gift. Let not your gaze dwell on the hypnotic |
| Tx:17.37 | as what it represents. For as the whole thought system of the ego | lies in its gifts, so the whole of Heaven lies in this instant, |
| Tx:17.37 | thought system of the ego lies in its gifts, so the whole of Heaven | lies in this instant, borrowed from eternity and set in time for you. |
| Tx:17.41 | in clear cut and unmistakable contrast, is transformed into what | lies beyond the picture. As you look on this, you realize that it is |
| Tx:17.42 | Him as in the whole. The whole reality of your relationship with Him | lies in our relationship to one another. The holy instant shines |
| Tx:17.70 | might, so great it reaches past the stars and to the universe that | lies beyond them, your little faithlessness can make it useless if |
| Tx:18.3 | to introduce quite variable behavior, a far more serious effect | lies in the fragmented perception from which the behavior stems. No |
| Tx:18.11 | is restored to all the Sonship through your relationship, for in it | lies the Sonship, whole and beautiful, safe in your love. Heaven has |
| Tx:18.28 | and will strengthen your desire to reach it. And in your desire | lies its accomplishment. Your desire is now in complete accord with |
| Tx:18.33 | the state its coming brings with it. The miracle of the holy instant | lies in your willingness to let it be what it is. And in your |
| Tx:18.33 | to let it be what it is. And in your willingness for this | lies also your acceptance of yourself as you were meant to be. |
| Tx:18.87 | to you is quite external. There are no messages which speak of what | lies underneath, for it is not the body that could speak of this. Its |
| Tx:18.88 | The circle of fear | lies just below the level the body sees and seems to be the whole |
| Tx:18.96 | Love is not learned. Its meaning | lies in itself. And learning ends when you have recognized all it is |
| Tx:18.97 | of love, sent from beyond forgiveness to remind you of all that | lies beyond it. Yet it is through forgiveness that it will be |
| Tx:19.21 | necessarily protected with every defense at its disposal. For here | lies its “best” defense which all the others serve. Here is its |
| Tx:19.38 | it was given you. All this will you do. Yet the peace which already | lies deeply within must first expand and flow across the obstacles |
| Tx:19.61 | body really given you that justifies your strange belief that in it | lies salvation? Do you not see that this is the belief in death? Here |
| Tx:19.70 | Here is your choice, and it is free. But all that | lies in it will come with it, and what you think you are can never be |
| Tx:19.70 | from it. The body is the great seeming betrayer of faith. In it | lies disillusionment and the seeds of faithlessness, but only if you |
| Tx:19.84 | death that peace must flow across seems to be very great. For in it | lies hidden all the ego's secrets, all its strange devices for |
| Tx:19.86 | not your protection; it is yours. For it is deathless, and within it | lies the end of death. |
| Tx:19.90 | the universe and of the universe of universes and of everything that | lies even beyond them would you remember. And as this memory rises in |
| Tx:19.92 | is there. This is the secret bargain made with the ego to keep what | lies beyond the veil forever blotted out and unremembered. Here is |
| Tx:19.94 | and each has been surmounted by the power of the attraction of what | lies beyond. Your wanting fear seemed to be holding them in place. |
| Tx:19.110 | this world and the long journey through this world whatever meaning | lies in them. Beyond this they are meaningless. You stand together, |
| Tx:20.12 | not how to look nor where. And now you know. In you the knowledge | lies, ready to be unveiled and freed from all the terror that kept it |
| Tx:20.25 | eyes unto your strong companion, in whom the meaning of your freedom | lies. He seemed to be crucified beside you. And yet his holiness |
| Tx:20.29 | are alien and can no more enter than can their source. And therein | lies your need to see your brother sinless. In him is Heaven. See sin |
| Tx:20.29 | you only love, but what you would receive of him is up to you. It | lies in him to overlook all your mistakes, and therein lies his own |
| Tx:20.29 | up to you. It lies in him to overlook all your mistakes, and therein | lies his own salvation. And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a |
| Tx:20.33 | does not need your part to help Him with the rest. For in your part | lies all of it, without which is no part complete, nor is the whole |
| Tx:20.39 | the fear that rises from the meaningless attempt to judge what | lies so far beyond your judgment you cannot even see it? Judge not |
| Tx:20.45 | The meaning of the Son of God | lies solely in his relationship with his Creator. If it were |
| Tx:20.51 | threatened. You are idolaters no longer. The Holy Spirit's purpose | lies safe in your relationship and not your bodies. You have escaped |
| Tx:20.64 | a difference between this vain imagining and vision. The difference | lies not in them, but in their purpose. Both are but means, each one |
| Tx:21.2 | you joined the Will of God to set him free. There is no choice that | lies between these two decisions. And you will see the witness to the |
| Tx:21.4 | You can be shown which doors are open, and you can see where safety | lies and which way leads to darkness, which to light. Judgment will |
| Tx:21.12 | a miracle but this remembering? And who is there in whom this memory | lies not? The light in one awakens it in all. And when you see it in |
| Tx:21.14 | but mean it with no reservations, for here the power of salvation | lies: |
| Tx:21.22 | you is to make room for truth. You are not asked to make or do what | lies beyond your understanding. All you are asked to do is let it in; |
| Tx:21.34 | it. But as He uses them, they lead away from sin because His purpose | lies in the opposite direction. He sees the means you use but not the |
| Tx:21.43 | have detached themselves from their belief that their identity | lies in the ego. A holy relationship is one in which you join with |
| Tx:21.48 | Be not held back by fear's insane insistence that sureness | lies in doubt. This has no meaning. What matters it to you how loudly |
| Tx:21.51 | There is another vision and another Voice in which your freedom | lies awaiting but your choice. And if you place your faith in them, |
| Tx:21.52 | to which the idea of separation has interfered with reason. Reason | lies in the other Self you have cut off from your awareness. And |
| Tx:21.57 | The part of mind where reason | lies was dedicated by your will in union with your Father's to the |
| Tx:22.4 | finally removes all sense of differences so that the sameness that | lies beneath them all becomes apparent. Here is the golden circle |
| Tx:22.21 | and belief can fall to either side, but reason tells you that misery | lies only on one side and joy upon the other. |
| Tx:22.27 | time and yet beyond, immortal yet on earth. How great the power that | lies in it. Time waits upon its will, and earth will be as it would |
| Tx:22.52 | of the body has been chosen, the mind is used as means whose value | lies in its ability to contrive ways to achieve the body's freedom. |
| Tx:22.60 | you. Let us look straight at how this error came about, for here | lies buried the heavy anchor that seems to keep the fear of God in |
| Tx:22.62 | the other feeling pain. And this belief you want. Yet wherein | lies its value except in the desire to attack in safety? Attack is |
| Tx:23.9 | cannot join. They are the same, and they are nothing. Their joining | lies in nothingness; two are as meaningless as one or as a thousand. |
| Tx:23.39 | nor that return from one is easier. The whole descent from Heaven | lies in each one. And where your thinking starts, there must it end. |
| Tx:23.45 | and that attack is justified on its behalf cannot perceive it | lies within them. How could they know? Could they accept forgiveness |
| Tx:24.49 | He could never leave His own creation. And the sign that this is so | lies in your brother, offered you that all your doubts about yourself |
| Tx:24.57 | Futility of function not fulfilled will haunt you while your brother | lies asleep, till what has been assigned to you is done and he is |
| Tx:25.6 | be content and satisfied. It chooses where you think your safety | lies, at your decision. It reveals yourself to you as you would have |
| Tx:25.9 | so that the aim of specialness can be corrected where the error | lies. Because His purpose still is one with both the Father and the |
| Tx:25.13 | no suggestions of success at all. To place your hopes where no hope | lies must make you hopeless. Yet is this hopelessness your choice, |
| Tx:26.21 | thing to make a choice at all is this distinction. And herein | lies the difference between the worlds. In this one, choice is made |
| Tx:26.23 | for choice. That there is choice is an illusion. Yet within this one | lies the undoing of every illusion, not excepting this. |
| Tx:26.24 | union? All illusions are but one. And in the recognition this is so | lies the ability to give up all attempts to choose between them and |
| Tx:26.25 | be reflected from beyond the gate behind which total lack of limits | lies. Nothing in boundless love could need forgiveness. And what is |
| Tx:26.43 | let it go, for it is gone. You stand no longer on the ground that | lies between the worlds. You have gone on and reached the world that |
| Tx:26.43 | lies between the worlds. You have gone on and reached the world that | lies at Heaven's gate. There is no hindrance to the Will of God nor |
| Tx:26.50 | God's answer | lies where the belief in sin must be, for only there can its effects |
| Tx:26.50 | And this must be corrected where the illusion of reversal | lies. |
| Tx:26.59 | attempt to prove your innocence while cherishing attack. Its failure | lies in that you still feel guilty, though without understanding why. |
| Tx:26.62 | a miracle, whatever form they took. In every miracle all healing | lies, for God gave answer to them all as one. And what is one to Him |
| Tx:26.69 | of gaining what forgiveness offers now. The interval you think | lies in between the giving and receiving of the gift seems to be one |
| Tx:26.75 | which the “good” appears, is but one aspect of the little space that | lies between you, unforgiven still. |
| Tx:27.15 | one and not the other. Who forgives is healed. And in his healing | lies the proof that he has truly pardoned and retains no trace of |
| Tx:27.16 | which cannot be undone and overlooked entirely. In their undoing | lies the proof that they were merely errors. Let yourself be healed |
| Tx:27.28 | keeps because it has been shared. In His acceptance of this function | lies the means whereby your mind is unified. His single purpose |
| Tx:27.56 | truth is found in him if it is truth he represents. And otherwise he | lies, if you should call him by the holy Name of God Himself. |
| Tx:27.71 | dreams about the truth in you. The gap between reality and dreams | lies not between the dreaming of the world and what you dream in |
| Tx:27.81 | beginning, for the part you see is but the second part, whose cause | lies in the first. No one asleep and dreaming in the world remembers |
| Tx:28.35 | will be seen without a cause. The dream of healing in forgiveness | lies and gently shows you that you never sinned. The miracle would |
| Tx:28.45 | you, Father, knowing you will come to close each little gap that | lies between the broken pieces of Your holy Son. Your holiness, |
| Tx:28.45 | broken pieces of Your holy Son. Your holiness, complete and perfect, | lies in every one of them. And they are joined because what is in one |
| Tx:28.50 | illusions and the truth to be the place where all your safety | lies and where your Self is safely hidden by what you have made. Here |
| Tx:28.61 | will be one or not at all, its oneness being where the healing | lies. What could correct for separation but its opposite? There is no |
| Tx:28.65 | it with further locks and chains and heavy anchors when its weakness | lies not in itself but in the frailty of the little gap of |
| Tx:28.66 | wash away, and yet this house will stand forever, for its strength | lies not within itself alone. It is an ark of safety, resting on |
| Tx:29.5 | of distance seen between you. Thus do you endow it with a power that | lies not within itself. And herein lies its power over you. For now |
| Tx:29.5 | do you endow it with a power that lies not within itself. And herein | lies its power over you. For now you think that it determines when |
| Tx:29.17 | that it can not be sick. In your demand that it be more than this | lies the idea of sickness. For it asks that God be less than all He |
| Tx:29.34 | given as his own. Because he has it is it given you, and where it | lies in him, behold your peace. The quiet that surrounds you dwells |
| Tx:29.35 | If you but knew the glorious goal that | lies beyond forgiveness, you would not keep hold on any thought, |
| Tx:29.38 | the same in different form. Forgiveness is your peace, for herein | lies the end of separation and the dream of danger and destruction, |
| Tx:29.48 | idols in the hope of peace. God dwells within, and your completion | lies in Him. No idol takes His place. Look not to idols. Do not seek |
| Tx:30.35 | Your will is boundless; it is not your will that it be bound. What | lies in you has joined with God Himself in all creation's birth. |
| Tx:30.40 | Behind the search for every idol | lies the yearning for completion. Wholeness has no form because it is |
| Tx:30.49 | And you attack them for the things you think they represent. What | lies beyond them cannot be attacked. |
| Tx:30.64 | in showing you the way that He must walk with you? His blessing | lies on you as surely as His Father's love rests upon Him. His |
| Tx:30.65 | with it goes all hatred and all fear. Look back no longer, for what | lies ahead is all you ever wanted in your hearts. Give up the world! |
| Tx:30.69 | The Will of God forever | lies in those whose hands are joined. Until they joined, they thought |
| Tx:30.86 | Escape from judgment simply | lies in this—all things have but one purpose which you share with |
| Tx:31.74 | kept from everything you see. At most, you glimpse a shadow of what | lies beyond. At least, you merely look on darkness and perceive the |
| W1:4.2 | them. The “good” ones of which you are aware are but shadows of what | lies beyond, and shadows make sight difficult. The “bad” ones are |
| W1:11.1 | for in this idea is your release made sure. The key to forgiveness | lies in it. |
| W1:12.1 | The importance of this idea | lies in the fact that it contains a correction for a major perceptual |
| W1:31.4 | of independence in the name of your own freedom. And in your freedom | lies the freedom of the world. |
| W1:38.7 | There is nothing my holiness cannot do because the power of God | lies in it. |
| W1:51.5 | intended to replace. My thoughts are meaningless, but all creation | lies in the thoughts I think with God. |
| W1:55.4 | [23] I can escape from the world by giving up attack thoughts. Herein | lies my salvation, and nowhere else. Without attack thoughts I could |
| W1:58.6 | [40] I am blessed as a Son of God. Herein | lies my claim to all good and only good. I am blessed as a Son of |
| W1:62.1 | about yourself return to your memory. Therefore in your forgiveness | lies your salvation. |
| W1:70.4 | and so He has kept the Source of healing where the need for healing | lies. You have tried to do just the opposite, making every attempt, |
| W1:76.1 | Yet to understand that this is so, you must first realize salvation | lies not there. While you would seek for it in things that have no |
| W1:80.5 | has one solution. It is in this that the simplicity of salvation | lies. It is because of this that it is guaranteed to work. |
| W1:91.3 | You do not doubt the images they show you are reality. Your faith | lies in the darkness, not the light. |
| W1:92.4 | past appearances. It keeps its steady gaze upon the light that | lies beyond them. It unites with light, of which it is a part. It |
| W1:99.9 | strength in what you say, for these are words in which your freedom | lies. Your Father loves you. All the world of pain is not His Will. |
| W1:106.5 | Hear Him today, and listen to the Word which lifts the veil which | lies upon the earth and wakes all those who sleep and cannot see. God |
| W1:126.8 | today. And if you only catch a tiny glimpse of the release which | lies in the idea we practice for today, this is a day of glory for |
| W1:127.3 | judge. As it is one itself, it looks on all as one. Its meaning | lies in oneness. And it must elude the mind that thinks of it as |
| W1:131.4 | power to do so. Otherwise, you still are free to choose a goal that | lies beyond the world and every worldly thought and one which comes |
| W1:131.14 | them in your mind which you could not completely lock to hide what | lies beyond. |
| W1:131.15 | nor sought; nothing before this door you really want, and only what | lies past it do you seek. |
| W1:132.5 | you came. There is no world apart from what you wish, and herein | lies your ultimate release. Change but your mind on what you want to |
| W1:134.7 | through the thousand forms in which they may appear. It looks on | lies but it is not deceived. It does not heed the self-accusing |
| W1:134.8 | It is because of this that it becomes the undeceiver in the face of | lies, the great restorer of the simple truth. By its ability to |
| W1:134.10 | as God Himself intended it to be and as it is in truth. It is but | lies which would condemn. In truth is innocence the only thing there |
| W1:134.10 | illusions and the truth, between the world you see and that which | lies beyond, between the hell of guilt and Heaven's gate. |
| W1:135.1 | is real, and that his own defense can save himself? And herein | lies the folly of defense—it gives illusions full reality and then |
| W1:136.11 | as these, with God made blind by your illusions, truth turned into | lies, and all the universe made slave to laws which your defenses |
| W1:137.4 | Sickness would prove that | lies must be the truth. But healing demonstrates that truth is true. |
| W1:138.5 | cannot be learned but only recognized. In recognition its acceptance | lies, and as it is accepted, it is known. But knowledge is beyond the |
| W1:152.11 | accepted as our own. Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that | lies are false and only truth is true. |
| W1:153.4 | the costliest of all the prices which the ego would exact. In them | lies madness in a form so grim that hope of sanity seems but to be an |
| W1:157.2 | us to the door where learning ceases, and we catch a glimpse of what | lies past the highest reaches it can possibly attain. It leaves us |
| W1:158.9 | by One, they merely disappear because a vision of the holiness which | lies beyond them comes to take their place. It matters not what form |
| W1:163.5 | no name to him, for he has passed to dust. It says but this: “Here | lies a witness God is dead.” And this it writes again and still |
| W1:164.5 | is the day when vain imaginings part like a curtain to reveal what | lies beyond them. Now is what is really there made visible, while all |
| W1:165.1 | makes this world seem real except your own denial of the truth which | lies beyond? What but your thoughts of misery and death obscure the |
| W1:165.4 | it comes to you. Ask to receive, and it is given you. Conviction | lies within it. Till you welcome it as yours, uncertainty remains. |
| W1:165.6 | healed. For now you are among the saviors of the world. Your destiny | lies there and nowhere else. Would God consent to let His Son remain |
| W1:165.7 | And in His Name we practice as His Word directs we do. His sureness | lies beyond our every doubt. His love remains beyond our every fear. |
| W1:168.2 | kind unthinkable. His grace His answer is to all despair, for in it | lies remembrance of His Love. Would He not gladly give the means by |
| W1:168.5 | and holy day today, for we receive what has been given us. Our faith | lies in the Giver, not our own acceptance. We acknowledge our |
| W1:169.6 | endless present, where the past and future cannot be conceived. It | lies beyond salvation—past all thought of time, forgiveness, and |
| W1:R5.15 | for the experience and recognize that it is only here conviction | lies. We use the words, and try and try again to go beyond them to |
| W1:172.2 | [153] In my defenselessness my safety | lies. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:181.1 | are magnified, becoming blocks to your awareness of the Self that | lies beyond your own mistakes and past his seeming sins as well as |
| W1:181.2 | And you will not transcend their sight and see the sinlessness that | lies beyond. |
| W1:185.14 | with the need of every heart, the call of every mind, the hope that | lies beyond despair, the love attack would hide, the brotherhood that |
| W1:187.7 | suffering, and you remove the thought of suffering. Your blessing | lies on everyone who suffers when you choose to see all suffering as |
| W1:196.2 | under what it sees as threat, is quick to cite the truth to save its | lies. Yet must it fail to understand the truth it uses thus. But you |
| W1:196.9 | bound because you feared your strength and freedom. Yet salvation | lies in them. |
| W1:200.3 | hell, when you have but to look with open eyes to find that Heaven | lies before you, through a door that opens easily to welcome you? |
| W1:200.8 | Now the way is easy, sloping gently toward the bridge where freedom | lies within the peace of God. |
| W2:WIW.3 | its illusions but a solid base where truth exists, upheld apart from | lies. Yet everything that they report is but illusion, which is kept |
| W2:248.1 | the truth about myself. Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and | lies about the holy Son of God. Now am I ready to accept him back as |
| W2:WIS.2 | for the goal of self-deception. Truth can be its aim as well as | lies. The senses then will seek instead for witnesses to what is true. |
| W2:WIB.5 | it may be, you will believe that it is one with you. Your safety | lies in truth and not in lies. Love is your safety. Fear does not |
| W2:WIB.5 | that it is one with you. Your safety lies in truth and not in | lies. Love is your safety. Fear does not exist. Identify with love, |
| W2:WIC.2 | part of His and His of yours. He is the part in which God's Answer | lies, where all decisions are already made and dreams are over. He |
| W2:319.1 | come immediately and fill up the space the ego left unoccupied by | lies. Only the ego can be limited, and therefore it must seek for |
| W2:336.1 | sights and sounds at best can serve but to recall the memory that | lies beyond them all. Forgiveness sweeps away distortions and opens |
| W2:342.1 | me. The key is in my hand, and I have reached the door beyond which | lies the end of dreams. I stand before the gate of Heaven, wondering |
| M:4.15 | and limitless strength of gentleness? The might of God's teachers | lies in their gentleness, for they have understood their evil |
| M:4.18 | than many other ideas in our curriculum. Its greater strangeness | lies merely in the obviousness of its reversal of the world's |
| M:8.2 | Illusions are travesties of creation, attempts to bring truth to | lies. Finding truth unacceptable, the mind revolts against truth and |
| M:15.1 | Judgment on him is received. This is the judgment in which salvation | lies. This is the judgment that will set him free. This is the |
| M:15.1 | are freed with him. Time pauses as eternity comes near, and silence | lies across the world that everyone may hear this judgment of the Son |
| M:16.6 | all the fearful things you see in dreams. It is not so. Your safety | lies not there. What you give up is merely the illusion of protecting |
| M:17.5 | Yet that it can be believed as fact is surely so. And herein | lies the birthplace of guilt. Who usurps the place of God and takes |
| M:18.1 | has new content. It is not the form alone in which the difference | lies. |
| M:19.5 | whatever picture the mind desires to see. Remember this. In this | lies either Heaven or hell, as you elect. God's justice points to |
| M:20.5 | Death cannot be escape, because it is not life in which the problem | lies. Life has no opposite, for it is God. Life and death seem to be |
| M:22.6 | it must be accepted. It is in the receiving, then, that healing | lies. All else must follow from this single purpose. |
| M:23.3 | are remembering God. The whole relationship of the Son to the Father | lies in him. His part in the Sonship is also yours, and his completed |

| Tx:7.74 | is to withdraw all investment from them, and they will have no | life for you, because you have put them out of your mind. While you |

| Tx:7.75 | The gift of | life is yours to give because it was given you. You are unaware of |
| Tx:7.75 | you do not know your being. All confusion comes from not extending | life, since that is not the Will of your Creator. You can do nothing |

| Tx:11.41 | the Guide your Father gave you that you might learn you have eternal | life. For death is not your Father's Will nor yours, and whatever is |
| Tx:11.41 | and whatever is true is the Will of the Father. You pay no price for | life, for that was given you, but you do pay a price for death, and a |

| Tx:15.2 | goal is death, which is its end. But to the Holy Spirit the goal is | life, which has no end. |
| Tx:15.3 | but not a friend. For it is as mistrustful of death as it is of | life, and what it wants for you it cannot tolerate. The ego wants you |
| Tx:15.6 | is hell. Even when it attacks so savagely that it tries to take the | life of someone who hears it temporarily as the only voice, it speaks |

| Tx:18.78 | and joyless, which makes up your little kingdom. And realize the | life and joy which love would bring to it from where it comes and |
| Tx:18.79 | you built to come inside and shine upon the barren ground. See how | life springs up everywhere! The desert becomes a garden, green and |
| Tx:19.77 | falls across all living things because the ego is the “enemy” of | life. |
| Tx:19.78 | “sinners,” the ego's mournful chorus, plodding so heavily away from | life, dragging their chains and marching in the slow procession which |
| Tx:19.79 | in place of the ego's, you renounced death, exchanging it for | life. We know that an idea leaves not its source. And death is the |
| Tx:19.79 | And death is the result of the thought we call the ego as surely as | life is the result of the Thought of God. |
| Tx:19.80 | From the ego came sin and guilt and death, in opposition to | life and innocence and to the Will of God Himself. Where can such |
| Tx:19.84 | of the ego's making over creation, the victory of lifelessness on | Life Itself. |
| Tx:19.85 | Himself is powerless before the ego's might, unable to protect the | life that He created against the ego's savage wish to kill. My |
| Tx:19.85 | its exaltation you commanded it to die, for only death could conquer | life. And what but insanity could look upon the defeat of God and |
| Tx:19.87 | every miracle you will perform, held out to you. The miracle of | life is ageless, born in time but nourished in eternity. Behold this |
| Tx:19.87 | will follow him, not to the cross, but to the Resurrection and the | Life. |
| Tx:19.90 | for you? Very simply, you would remember your Father. The Creator of | life, the Source of everything that lives, the Father of the universe |
| Tx:19.93 | would seem to “save” you. For if this is gone, what can you fear but | life? It is the attraction of death that makes life seem to be ugly, |
| Tx:19.93 | what can you fear but life? It is the attraction of death that makes | life seem to be ugly, cruel, and tyrannical. You are no more afraid |
| Tx:19.107 | glad remembrance of his Father, Who knows no sin, no death, but only | life eternal. |
| Tx:20.2 | acceptance of the truth and its expression. This week we celebrate | life, not death. And we honor the perfect purity of the Son of God |
| Tx:20.25 | each other's hand, uncertain whether to let it go or to take hold on | life so long forgotten. Strengthen your hold and raise your eyes unto |
| Tx:20.55 | and die in honor of its master. And this unholy instant seems to be | life; an instant of despair, a tiny island of dry sand, bereft of |
| Tx:21.7 | Thus they define their | life and where they live, adjusting to it as they think they must, |
| Tx:21.85 | be killed. And so he dies because of what he learned. He goes from | life to death, the final proof he valued the inconstant more than |
| Tx:22.22 | will not decide alone nor differently. Either you give each other | life or death; either you are each other's savior or his judge, |
| Tx:23.11 | of his Father must be forgotten. It is forgotten in the body's | life, and if you think you are a body, you will believe you have |
| Tx:23.30 | you of the secret ingredient which would give meaning to your | life. The substitute for love, born of your enmity to one another, |
| Tx:23.37 | There is no | life outside of Heaven. Where God created life, there life must be. |
| Tx:23.37 | There is no life outside of Heaven. Where God created | life, there life must be. In any state apart from Heaven, life is |
| Tx:23.37 | There is no life outside of Heaven. Where God created life, there | life must be. In any state apart from Heaven, life is illusion. At |
| Tx:23.37 | created life, there life must be. In any state apart from Heaven, | life is illusion. At best, it seems like life; at worst, like death. |
| Tx:23.37 | state apart from Heaven, life is illusion. At best, it seems like | life; at worst, like death. Yet both are judgments on what is not |
| Tx:23.37 | life; at worst, like death. Yet both are judgments on what is not | life, equal in their inaccuracy and lack of meaning. Life not in |
| Tx:23.37 | on what is not life, equal in their inaccuracy and lack of meaning. | Life not in Heaven is impossible, and what is not in Heaven is not |
| Tx:23.47 | The fear of God is fear of | life and not of death. Yet He remains the only place of safety. In |
| Tx:23.48 | is like the Son's Creator. And what is lifeless cannot be the Son of | Life. How can a body be extended to hold the universe? Can it create |
| Tx:23.49 | as well. Either the Father and the Son are murderers or neither is. | Life makes not death, creating like itself. |
| Tx:24.25 | The death of specialness is not your death but your awaking into | life eternal. You but emerge from an illusion of what you are to the |
| Tx:24.31 | Forgive the great Creator of the universe, the Source of | life, of love and holiness, the perfect Father of a perfect Son, for |
| Tx:24.46 | all living things from death, receiving from each one the gift of | life that your forgiveness offers to your Self. The sight of Christ |
| Tx:25.1 | that you cannot be apart from what is at the very center of your | life. What gives you life cannot be housed in death. No more can you. |
| Tx:25.1 | apart from what is at the very center of your life. What gives you | life cannot be housed in death. No more can you. Christ is within a |
| Tx:25.6 | and end are never separate. And thus you learn what seems to have a | life apart has none. |
| Tx:25.7 | You are the means for God—not separate nor with a | life apart from His. His Life is manifest in you who are His Son. |
| Tx:25.7 | the means for God—not separate nor with a life apart from His. His | Life is manifest in you who are His Son. Each aspect of Himself is |
| Tx:25.36 | In you is all of Heaven. Every leaf that falls is given | life in you. Each bird that ever sang will sing again in you. And |
| Tx:25.51 | the “sinner's” wish for death is just as strong as is God's Will for | life. Nor can the basis of a world He did not make be firm and sure |
| Tx:25.62 | to madness because your aims can not be reconciled. Death demands | life, but life is not maintained at any cost. No one can suffer for |
| Tx:25.62 | because your aims can not be reconciled. Death demands life, but | life is not maintained at any cost. No one can suffer for the Will of |
| Tx:25.65 | is seen as victory and triumph over eternity and timelessness and | life? |
| Tx:25.73 | his behalf? And who would come to plead for him and not against his | life? No justice would be given him by you. Yet God ensured that |
| Tx:25.77 | peace, complete deliverance from all effects of sin, and to the | life eternal, joyous and complete in every way, as God appointed for |
| Tx:26.7 | Yet every instant can you be reborn and given | life again. His holiness gives life to you, who cannot die because |
| Tx:26.7 | instant can you be reborn and given life again. His holiness gives | life to you, who cannot die because his sinlessness is known to God |
| Tx:26.7 | out because he sees it not. You who would make a sacrifice of | life and make your eyes and ears bear witness to the death of God and |
| Tx:26.8 | untouched by time, and far beyond the reach of any sacrifice of | life or death. For neither did he make, and only one was given him by |
| Tx:26.42 | between past and present, which is not a gap at all. Such is each | life—a seeming interval from birth to death and on to life again, a |
| Tx:26.42 | Such is each life—a seeming interval from birth to death and on to | life again, a repetition of an instant gone by long ago, which cannot |
| Tx:26.63 | instead of what his Father wills for him. Yet every instant offers | life to him because his Father wills that he should live. |
| Tx:27.7 | It is not will for | life, but wish for death that is the motivation for this world. Its |
| Tx:27.7 | Concerns about the body demonstrate how frail and vulnerable is your | life, how easily destroyed is what you love. Depression speaks of |
| Tx:27.8 | of their unnatural desires and strange needs. For who could live a | life so soon cut short and not esteem the worth of passing joys? What |
| Tx:27.8 | for all of them if they enjoy their benefits or not. The end of | life must come, whatever way that life be spent. And so take pleasure |
| Tx:27.8 | their benefits or not. The end of life must come, whatever way that | life be spent. And so take pleasure in the quickly passing and |
| Tx:27.10 | are offered that it may be judged in any way at all. It has no | life, but neither is it dead. It stands apart from all experience of |
| Tx:27.11 | healing take the place of death. The body can become a sign of | life, a promise of redemption, and a breath of immortality to those |
| Tx:27.11 | that it represents. Let it receive the power to represent an endless | life, forever unattacked. And to your brother let its message be, |
| Tx:27.18 | and death must disappear before the ancient clarion call of | life. This call has power far beyond the weak and miserable cry of |
| Tx:27.48 | returning to the world. And being blessed, you will bring blessing. | Life is given you to give the dying world. And suffering eyes no |
| Tx:27.57 | And for each witness to the body's death He sends a witness to your | life in Him Who knows no death. Each miracle He brings is witness |
| Tx:27.58 | As fear is witness unto death, so is the miracle the witness unto | life. It is a witness no one can deny, for it is the effects of life |
| Tx:27.58 | unto life. It is a witness no one can deny, for it is the effects of | life it brings. The dying live, the dead arise, and pain has |
| Tx:27.70 | a sleeping death and dreams of evil or a happy wakening and joy of | life. What could you choose between but life or death, waking or |
| Tx:27.70 | a happy wakening and joy of life. What could you choose between but | life or death, waking or sleeping, peace or war, your dreams or your |
| Tx:27.76 | He represents his Father, Whom you see as offering both | life and death to you. Brother, He gives but life. Yet what you see |
| Tx:27.76 | see as offering both life and death to you. Brother, He gives but | life. Yet what you see as gifts your brother offers represent the |
| Tx:29.15 | Such is the promise of the living God—His Son have | life and every living thing be part of him, and nothing else have |
| Tx:29.15 | life and every living thing be part of him, and nothing else have | life. What you have given “life” is not alive and symbolizes but your |
| Tx:29.15 | is not alive and symbolizes but your wish to be alive apart from | life, alive in death, with death perceived as life, and living, |
| Tx:29.15 | to be alive apart from life, alive in death, with death perceived as | life, and living, death. Confusion follows on confusion here, for on |
| Tx:29.30 | to take the part which you assigned to him in what you dream your | life was meant to be. He asks for help in every dream he has, and you |
| Tx:29.37 | And leading finally beyond all dreams unto the peace of everlasting | life. |
| Tx:29.39 | holy Son of God! You make a bargain that you cannot keep. The Son of | Life cannot be killed. He is immortal as his Father. What he is |
| Tx:29.46 | to be without and to have suffered loss. And by this giving up is | life renounced. Seek not outside yourself. The search implies you are |
| Tx:29.47 | Idols must fall because they have no | life, and what is lifeless is a sign of death. You came to die, and |
| Tx:29.47 | a message other than an idol found that represents a parody of | life which in its lifelessness is really death, conceived as real and |
| Tx:29.47 | must fail and crumble and decay because a form of death cannot be | life, and what is sacrificed cannot be whole. |
| Tx:29.50 | by which this idol can be saved. Salvation thus appears to threaten | life and offer death. |
| Tx:29.51 | It is not so. Salvation seeks to prove there is no death, and only | life exists. The sacrifice of death is nothing lost. An idol cannot |
| Tx:29.56 | is an idol? Nothing! It must be believed before it seems to come to | life and given power that it may be feared. Its life and power are |
| Tx:29.56 | it seems to come to life and given power that it may be feared. Its | life and power are its believer's gift, and this is what the miracle |
| Tx:29.56 | believer's gift, and this is what the miracle restores to what has | life and power worthy of the gift of Heaven and eternal peace. The |
| Tx:29.61 | willing he must be to let himself bow down in worship to what has no | life and seek for power in the powerless. What happened to the holy |
| Tx:30.33 | your will, where everything created is for you. No spark of | life but was created with your glad consent, as you would have it be. |
| Tx:30.35 | prisoner to fear, a slave to death, a little creature with a little | life. Your will is boundless; it is not your will that it be bound. |
| Tx:30.43 | They share the attributes of their creator, nor have they a separate | life apart from his. The thoughts you think are in your mind, as you |
| Tx:31.9 | from death when you have heard its calling as the ancient call to | life and understood that it is but your own. The Christ in you |
| Tx:31.17 | want of you? What could he want, but what you want of him? Herein is | life as easily as death, for what you choose, you choose as well for |
| Tx:31.17 | for you have chosen death. But if he calls for death or calls for | life, for hate or for forgiveness and for help, is not the same in |
| Tx:31.75 | universe! To every part of true creation has the Lord of Love and | Life entrusted all salvation from the misery of hell. And to each one |
| W1:20.3 | if you are not? God has one Son, and he is the resurrection and the | life. His Will is done because all power is given him in Heaven and |
| W1:41.3 | wherever you go. You can never be alone because the Source of all | life goes with you wherever you go. Nothing can destroy your peace of |
| W1:44.1 | can make darkness and then think you see in it, but light reflects | life and is therefore an aspect of creation. Creation and darkness |
| W1:44.1 | of creation. Creation and darkness cannot coexist, but light and | life must go together, being but different aspects of creation. |
| W1:47.4 | idea. Then spend a minute or two in searching for situations in your | life which you have invested with fear, dismissing each one by |
| W1:54.3 | to what I think. If I did not think, I would not exist, because | life is thought. Let me look on the world I see as the representation |
| W1:62.2 | For this, attack must be replaced by forgiveness so that thoughts of | life may replace thoughts of death. |
| W1:72.5 | could it be but death? In trying to present Himself as the Author of | life and not of death, He is a liar and a deceiver, full of false |
| W1:R2.4 | these practice periods as dedications to the way, the truth, and the | life. Refuse to be side-tracked into detours, illusions, and thoughts |
| W1:93.4 | withstand the Will of God. You think that this is death, but it is | life. You think you are destroyed, but you are saved. |
| W1:106.2 | by voices of the dead which tell you they have found the source of | life and offer it to you for your belief. Attend them not, but listen |
| W1:107.1 | to be remembered. They are gone because without belief they have no | life, and so they disappear to nothingness, returning whence they |
| W1:107.10 | but were created by the self-same thought which gave the gift of | life to Him as well. He is your brother and so like to you your |
| W1:110.3 | health cannot turn to sickness, nor can death be substitute for | life or fear for love. All this has not occurred if you remain as God |
| W1:121.4 | beholds its own projections rising to attack its miserable parody of | life. It wants to live, yet wishes it were dead. It wants |
| W1:124.2 | How easily do errors disappear and death give place to everlasting | life. Our shining footprints point the way to truth, for God is our |
| W1:124.5 | And we see it in the dying and the dead as well, restoring them to | life. All this we see because we saw it first within ourselves. |
| W1:131.3 | because it is the search for nothingness, and while you seek for | life you ask for death. You look for safety and security while in |
| W1:132.9 | thoughts of sickness, and the dead arise when you let thoughts of | life replace all thoughts you ever held of death. |
| W1:133.2 | You do not ask too much of | life, but far too little. When you let your mind be drawn to bodily |
| W1:135.5 | care and watchful, deep concern are needful to protect its little | life? What but the body falters and must fail to serve the Son of God |
| W1:135.6 | health-inducing medicine, no care, and no concern at all. Defend its | life, or give it gifts to make it beautiful or walls to make it safe, |
| W1:135.6 | and crumbling, so unsafe it must be guarded with your very | life. |
| W1:135.19 | took. While you made plans for death, He led you gently to eternal | life. |
| W1:135.20 | a trace of sorrow and with joy which constantly increases as this | life becomes a holy instant, set in time but heeding only |
| W1:135.20 | Let no defenses but your present trust direct the future, and this | life becomes a meaningful encounter with the truth that only your |
| W1:136.10 | choice to die. And so the body is more powerful than everlasting | life, Heaven more frail than hell, and God's design for the salvation |
| W1:136.12 | you thought to govern it. And Heaven has not bowed to hell, nor | life to death. You can but choose to think you die or suffer sickness |
| W1:137.3 | Self appear to be dismembered and without the unity that gives it | life. But healing is accomplished as he sees the body has no power to |
| W1:137.10 | His | life becomes your own as you extend the little help He asks in |
| W1:138.7 | a means for demonstrating hell is real, hope changes to despair, and | life itself must in the end be overcome by death. In death alone are |
| W1:138.7 | opposition is to die. And thus salvation must be seen as death, for | life is seen as conflict. To resolve the conflict is to end your life |
| W1:138.7 | for life is seen as conflict. To resolve the conflict is to end your | life as well. |
| W1:139.3 | to know yourself is to believe that you are really dead. For what is | life except to be yourself, and what but you can be alive instead? |
| W1:139.4 | only certainty by which he lives. Thus he becomes uncertain of his | life, for what it is has been denied by him. |
| W1:151.12 | Such is your resurrection, for your | life is not a part of anything you see. It stands beyond the body and |
| W1:152.7 | Will, invented opposites to truth, and suffers death to triumph over | life—all this is arrogance. Humility would see at once these things |
| W1:156.2 | apart from God because you could not be without Him. He is what your | life is. Where you are, He is. There is one Life. That Life you share |
| W1:156.2 | Him. He is what your life is. Where you are, He is. There is one | Life. That Life you share with Him. Nothing can be apart from Him and |
| W1:156.2 | is what your life is. Where you are, He is. There is one Life. That | Life you share with Him. Nothing can be apart from Him and live. |
| W1:156.3 | Yet where He is there must be holiness as well as | life. No attribute of His remains unshared by everything that lives. |
| W1:156.3 | that lives. What lives is holy as Himself because what shares His | life is part of Holiness and could no more be sinful than the sun |
| W1:157.1 | and nights in celebrating death. Today you learn to feel the joy of | life. |
| W1:157.8 | not dreamed of. But the Holy One, the Giver of the happy dreams of | life, Translator of perception into truth, the holy Guide to Heaven |
| W1:159.10 | It is His gift whereby a sweet transition can be made from death to | life, from hopelessness to hope. Let us an instant dream with Him. |
| W1:161.5 | feel limits our freedom, makes us suffer, and at last puts out our | life. Yet bodies are but symbols of a concrete form of fear. Fear |
| W1:163.3 | the time has come for its arrival. It will never fail to take all | life as hostage to itself. |
| W1:163.4 | God proclaimed as lord of all creation, stronger than God's Will for | life, the endlessness of love and Heaven's perfect, changeless |
| W1:163.7 | survive. Their stronger will could triumph over His, and so eternal | life gave way to death. And with the Father died the Son as well. |
| W1:163.8 | we take today. And it is given us to look past death and see the | life beyond. |
| W1:163.9 | live and breathe in You alone. We are not separate from Your eternal | life. There is no death, for death is not Your Will. And we abide |
| W1:163.9 | is not Your Will. And we abide where You have placed us, in the | Life we share with You and with all living things, to be like You and |
| W1:165.1 | of misery and death obscure the perfect happiness and the Eternal | Life your Father wills for you? And what could hide what cannot be |
| W1:165.2 | an instant. It belongs to you. By It you live. It is your Source of | life, holding you one with It, and everything is one with you because |
| W1:165.2 | lighting your mind with happiness and love. Eternity and everlasting | life shine in your mind because the Thought of God has left you not |
| W1:167.1 | There are not different kinds of | life, for life is like the truth. It does not have degrees. It is the |
| W1:167.1 | There are not different kinds of life, for | life is like the truth. It does not have degrees. It is the one |
| W1:167.1 | no opposite. There is no death because what God created shares His | Life. There is no death because an opposite to God does not exist. |
| W1:167.5 | Death cannot come from | life. Ideas remain united to their source. They can extend all that |
| W1:167.7 | The opposite of | life can only be another form of life. As such, it can be reconciled |
| W1:167.7 | The opposite of life can only be another form of | life. As such, it can be reconciled with what created it because it |
| W1:167.8 | with them. The thought of death is not the opposite to thoughts of | life. Forever unopposed by opposites of any kind, the thoughts of God |
| W1:167.9 | What seems to be the opposite of | life is merely sleeping. When the mind elects to be what it is not |
| W1:167.10 | today be children of the truth and not deny our holy heritage. Our | life is not as we imagine it. Who changes life because he shuts his |
| W1:167.10 | our holy heritage. Our life is not as we imagine it. Who changes | life because he shuts his eyes or makes himself what he is not |
| W1:167.10 | for death in any form today. Nor will we let imagined opposites to | life abide even an instant where the thought of life eternal has been |
| W1:167.10 | opposites to life abide even an instant where the thought of | life eternal has been set by God Himself. |
| W1:167.11 | in His thoughts, which have no opposite, we understand there is one | life and that we share with Him, with all creation, with their |
| W1:167.11 | creation, with their thoughts as well, whom He created in a unity of | life that cannot separate in death and leave the Source of Life from |
| W1:167.11 | unity of life that cannot separate in death and leave the Source of | Life from where it came. |
| W1:167.12 | We share our | life because we have one Source, a Source from Which perfection comes |
| W1:167.12 | mind must waken as it sees its own perfection mirroring the Lord of | Life so perfectly it fades into what is reflected there. And now it |
| W1:R5.7 | to which we are approaching. Let us raise our hearts from dust to | life as we remember This is promised us, and that this course was |
| W1:179.2 | [167] There is one | life, and that I share with God. God is but Love, and therefore so am |
| W1:184.2 | between all things and you. Thus do you think that you have given | life in separation. By this split you think you are established as a |
| W1:188.9 | still shines in us and from us to all living things that share our | life. We will forgive them all, absolving all the world of what we |
| W1:190.3 | pain to prove that God is dead, has shown that death is victor over | life. The body is the Son of God, corruptible in death, as mortal as |
| W1:191.13 | denied its hold on you. They die till you accept your own eternal | life. You are the holy Son of God Himself. Remember this and all the |
| W1:193.10 | to believe that pain is real and death becomes our choice instead of | life? Shall we not learn to say these words when we have understood |
| W1:196.3 | of crucifixion and of death to thoughts of liberation and of | life. |
| W1:196.5 | is his deadly enemy, separate from him and waiting to destroy his | life and blot him from the universe, without the fear of hell upon |
| W1:200.3 | Yet you can ask as easily for love, for happiness, and for eternal | life in peace that has no ending. Ask for this, and you can only win. |
| W1:205.1 | my living here, the end I seek, my purpose and my function and my | life while I abide where I am not at home. I am not a body. I am |
| W2:222.1 | God is with me. He is my Source of | life, the life within, the air I breathe, the food by which I am |
| W2:222.1 | God is with me. He is my Source of life, the | life within, the air I breathe, the food by which I am sustained, the |
| W2:223.1 | in isolation, unattached, and housed within a body. Now I know my | life is God's. I have no other home, and I do not exist apart from |
| W2:WIW.5 | eyes of Christ, that what was made to die be restored to Everlasting | Life. |
| W2:242.1 | I will not lead my | life alone today. I do not understand the world. And so to try to |

| Tx:8.16 | to learn it is your decision to listen to the Teacher who knows of | light and can therefore teach it to you. There is no limit on your |
| Tx:8.26 | I am come as a | light into a world that does deny itself everything. It does this |
| Tx:8.26 | with you always, even to the end of the world. That is why I am the | light of the world. If I am with you in the loneliness of the world, |
| Tx:8.26 | purpose, then, is to overcome the world. I do not attack it, but my | light must dispel it because of what it is. |
| Tx:8.27 | Light does not attack darkness, but it does shine it away. If my | |
| Tx:8.27 | Light does not attack darkness, but it does shine it away. If my | light goes with you everywhere, you shine it away with me. The light |
| Tx:8.27 | If my light goes with you everywhere, you shine it away with me. The | light becomes ours, and you cannot abide in darkness any more than |
| Tx:8.54 | Sons, the Holy Spirit interprets everything you have made in the | light of what He is. The ego separates through the body. The Holy |
| Tx:8.64 | to see the body in many lights and gives it over entirely to the One | Light in Which it can be really understood at all. To confuse a |
| Tx:8.111 | listening to it? Your brother may not know who he is, but there is a | light in his mind which does know. This light can shine into yours, |
| Tx:8.111 | who he is, but there is a light in his mind which does know. This | light can shine into yours, making his words true and making you able |
| Tx:9.25 | it himself. What, then, should happen? When God said, “Let there be | light,” there was light. Can you find light by analyzing darkness as |
| Tx:9.25 | then, should happen? When God said, “Let there be light,” there was | light. Can you find light by analyzing darkness as the |
| Tx:9.25 | When God said, “Let there be light,” there was light. Can you find | light by analyzing darkness as the psychotherapist does or like the |
| Tx:9.25 | by acknowledging darkness in yourself and looking for a distant | light to remove it while emphasizing the distance? |
| Tx:9.26 | not mysterious. Nothing will occur unless you understand it, since | light is understanding. A “miserable sinner” cannot be healed without |
| Tx:9.27 | for him and who no longer believes in nightmares of any kind. The | light in his mind will therefore answer the questioner, who must |
| Tx:9.27 | answer the questioner, who must decide with God that there is | light because he sees it. And by his acknowledgment, the therapist |
| Tx:9.27 | translated into knowledge. The miracle worker begins by perceiving | light and translates his perception into sureness by continually |
| Tx:9.28 | he lets healing be. He can point to darkness, but he cannot bring | light of himself, for light is not of him. Yet, being for him, it |
| Tx:9.28 | He can point to darkness, but he cannot bring light of himself, for | light is not of him. Yet, being for him, it must also be for his |
| Tx:9.34 | as He did, and your dissociation will not alter this. Neither God's | light nor yours is dimmed because you do not see. Because the Sonship |
| Tx:9.92 | If you but see the little spark, you will learn of the greater | light, for the rays are there unseen. Perceiving the spark will heal, |
| Tx:9.92 | are there unseen. Perceiving the spark will heal, but knowing the | light will create. Yet in the returning, the little light must be |
| Tx:9.92 | but knowing the light will create. Yet in the returning, the little | light must be acknowledged first, for the separation was a descent |
| Tx:9.92 | magnitude to littleness. But the spark is still as pure as the great | light, because it is the remaining call of creation. Put all your |
| Tx:10.3 | The cornerstone of God's creation is you, for His thought system is | light. Remember the rays that are there unseen. The more you approach |
| Tx:10.3 | more you approach the center of His thought system, the clearer the | light becomes. The closer you come to [the foundation of] the ego's |
| Tx:10.3 | the little spark in your mind is enough to lighten it. Bring this | light fearlessly with you and hold it up to the foundation of the |
| Tx:10.3 | cornerstone of terror on which it rests and bring it out into the | light. There you will see that it rests on meaninglessness and that |
| Tx:10.14 | not to know. Believing this, you hide in darkness, denying that the | light is in you. |
| Tx:10.20 | like Him ever so slightly, and the little spark becomes a blazing | light that fills your mind so that He becomes your only Guest. |
| Tx:10.25 | When the | light comes and you have said, “God's Will is mine,” you will see |
| Tx:10.26 | the way. But the dark journey is not the way of God's Son. Walk in | light, and do not see the dark companions, for they are not fit |
| Tx:10.26 | they are not fit companions for the Son of God, who was created of | light and in light. The Great Light always surrounds you and shines |
| Tx:10.26 | fit companions for the Son of God, who was created of light and in | light. The Great Light always surrounds you and shines out from you. |
| Tx:10.26 | for the Son of God, who was created of light and in light. The Great | Light always surrounds you and shines out from you. How can you see |
| Tx:10.26 | and shines out from you. How can you see the dark companions in a | light such as this? If you see them, it is only because you are |
| Tx:10.26 | as this? If you see them, it is only because you are denying the | light. But deny them instead, for the light is here, and the way is |
| Tx:10.26 | because you are denying the light. But deny them instead, for the | light is here, and the way is clear. |
| Tx:10.27 | hide his glory, for God wills him to be glorious and gave him the | light that shines in him. You will never lose your way, for God leads |
| Tx:10.27 | dark companions, the dark way, are all illusions. Turn toward the | light, for the little spark in you is part of a light so great that |
| Tx:10.27 | Turn toward the light, for the little spark in you is part of a | light so great that it can sweep you out of all darkness forever. For |
| Tx:10.28 | The children of | light cannot abide in darkness, for darkness is not in them. Do not |
| Tx:10.30 | In your mind, you can accept the whole Sonship and bless it with the | light your Father gave it. Then you will be worthy to dwell in the |
| Tx:10.33 | unknown to you. Every altar to God is part of your Soul because the | light He created is one with Him. Would you cut off a brother from |
| Tx:10.33 | He created is one with Him. Would you cut off a brother from the | light that is yours? You would not do so if you realized that you can |
| Tx:10.34 | this realization, for it is truly the beginning of the dawn of | light. Remember also that the denial of this simple fact takes many |
| Tx:10.41 | undoes confusion by definition, and to look upon darkness through | light must dispel it. Let us begin this lesson in “ego dynamics” by |
| Tx:10.57 | He will demonstrate its truth. The witnesses for God stand in His | light and behold what He created. Their silence is the sign that they |
| Tx:11.14 | themselves, for the truth is in them. Yet, having obscured it, the | light in another mind must shine into theirs because that light is |
| Tx:11.14 | it, the light in another mind must shine into theirs because that | light is theirs. |
| Tx:11.15 | The | light in them shines as brightly, regardless of the density of the |
| Tx:11.15 | fog that obscures it. If you give no power to the fog to obscure the | light, it has none, for it has power only because the Son of God gave |
| Tx:11.58 | Father's altar, holding out the Father's love to you in the quiet | light of the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the Holy Spirit will lead |
| Tx:11.60 | of God, the holy perception of God's Son becomes so enlightened that | light streams into it, and the Spirit of God's Son shines in the Mind |
| Tx:12.5 | In the calm | light of truth, let us recognize that you believe you have crucified |
| Tx:12.9 | Your “guilty secret” is nothing, and if you will but bring it to the | light, the light will dispel it. And then no dark cloud will remain |
| Tx:12.9 | secret” is nothing, and if you will but bring it to the light, the | light will dispel it. And then no dark cloud will remain between you |
| Tx:12.17 | and let Him heal you. Do not leave any spot of pain hidden from His | light, and search your minds carefully for any thoughts which you may |
| Tx:12.21 | he could not remain at all. For a darkened mind cannot live in the | light, and it must seek a place of darkness where it can believe it |
| Tx:12.41 | Vision depends on | light, and you cannot see in darkness. Yet in the darkness in the |
| Tx:12.41 | make a private world and rule your own perceptions. Yet for this, | light must be excluded. Dreams disappear when light has come and you |
| Tx:12.41 | Yet for this, light must be excluded. Dreams disappear when | light has come and you can see. |
| Tx:12.42 | yet still within you is the vision of Christ, Who looks on all in | light. Your vision comes from fear, as His from love. And He sees for |
| Tx:12.44 | The Holy Spirit is the | light in which Christ stands revealed. And all who would behold Him |
| Tx:12.44 | And all who would behold Him can see Him, for they have asked for | light. Nor will they see Him alone, for He is no more alone than they |
| Tx:12.46 | can cast no shadow to darken the present unless you are afraid of | light. And only if you are would you choose to bring this darkness |
| Tx:12.51 | The present offers you your brothers in the | light that would unite you with them and free you from the past. |
| Tx:12.51 | remain in the darkness that is not there and refusing to accept the | light that is offered you. For the light of perfect vision is freely |
| Tx:12.51 | there and refusing to accept the light that is offered you. For the | light of perfect vision is freely given as it is freely received and |
| Tx:12.52 | unbroken because it is wholly shared. God's guiltless Son is only | light. There is no darkness in him anywhere, for he is whole. Call |
| Tx:12.52 | song of redemption, the hymn of gladness and thanksgiving for the | light to the Creator of light. The holy light that shines forth from |
| Tx:12.52 | hymn of gladness and thanksgiving for the light to the Creator of | light. The holy light that shines forth from God's Son is the witness |
| Tx:12.52 | and thanksgiving for the light to the Creator of light. The holy | light that shines forth from God's Son is the witness that his light |
| Tx:12.52 | holy light that shines forth from God's Son is the witness that his | light is of his Father. |
| Tx:12.54 | Children of | light, you know not that the light is in you. Yet you will find it |
| Tx:12.54 | Children of light, you know not that the | light is in you. Yet you will find it through its witnesses, for |
| Tx:12.54 | in you. Yet you will find it through its witnesses, for having given | light to them, they will return it. Everyone you see in light brings |
| Tx:12.54 | having given light to them, they will return it. Everyone you see in | light brings your light closer to your own awareness. Love always |
| Tx:12.54 | to them, they will return it. Everyone you see in light brings your | light closer to your own awareness. Love always leads to love. The |
| Tx:12.55 | There is a | light which this world cannot give. Yet you can give it, as it was |
| Tx:12.55 | it shines forth to call you from the world and follow it. For this | light will attract you as nothing in this world can do. And you will |
| Tx:12.55 | And here will everything remind you of your Father and His Holy Son. | Light is unlimited and spreads across this world in quiet joy. All |
| Tx:12.55 | will shine on them in gratitude because they brought you here. Your | light will join with theirs in power so compelling that it will draw |
| Tx:12.56 | and out of quiet recognition of the truth in them. The attraction of | light must draw you willingly, and willingness is signified by |
| Tx:12.56 | not see your brothers, and in the darkness you cannot look upon the | light you gave to them. |
| Tx:12.59 | list of things they do not need. It is not lit with artificial | light, and night comes not upon it. There is no day that brightens |
| Tx:12.69 | you need will merely serve to tighten up your world against the | light and render you unwilling to question the value that this world |
| Tx:12.70 | need. For He will give you all things that do not block the way to | light. And what else could you need? In time He gives you all the |
| Tx:12.71 | your mind and kept to hurt you. Under His guidance, you will travel | light and journey lightly, for His sight is ever on the journey's end |
| Tx:12.71 | himself holds his inheritance. Within himself he has no needs, for | light needs nothing but to shine in peace and from itself to let the |
| Tx:12.72 | are tempted to undertake a foolish journey that would lead away from | light, remember what you really want and say, |
| Tx:12.75 | has offered but to take away. And we will spread it like a veil of | light across the world's sad face, in which we hide our brothers from |
| Tx:13.2 | under His guidance, for the vision of Christ beholds everything in | light. Yet no perception, however holy, will last forever. |
| Tx:13.4 | is not His reality. The golden aspects of reality which spring to | light under His loving gaze are partial glimpses of the Heaven that |
| Tx:13.5 | until you see that every aspect is the same, perceived in the same | light and therefore one. Everyone seen without the past thus brings |
| Tx:13.5 | healing sight into the darkness and enabling the world to see. For | light must come into the darkened world to make Christ's vision |
| Tx:13.5 | Christ's vision possible even here. Help Him to give His gift of | light to all who think they wander in the darkness, and let Him |
| Tx:13.8 | and we will all unite in the eternity of God the Father. The holy | light you saw outside yourself in every miracle you offered to your |
| Tx:13.8 | to your brothers will be returned to you. And knowing that the | light is in you, your creations will be there with you, as you are in |
| Tx:13.11 | to the past as is the ego's law. Fidelity unto this law lets no | light in, for it demands fidelity to darkness and forbids awakening. |
| Tx:13.17 | for while you see one spot of guilt within you, you will not see the | light. And by projecting it, the world seems dark and shrouded in |
| Tx:13.18 | the dark in which they shroud them, are too afraid to look upon the | light within. Within you is not what you believe is there and what |
| Tx:13.19 | deny His knowledge, but you cannot change it. Look, then, upon the | light He placed within you and learn that what you feared was there |
| Tx:13.28 | and look past darkness to the holy place where you will see the | light. The altar to your Father is as pure as He Who raised it to |
| Tx:13.29 | would be released. There is no other way to look within and see the | light of love shining as steadily and as surely as God Himself has |
| Tx:13.43 | him. He will learn the lesson of awaking. God watches over him, and | light surrounds him. |
| Tx:13.59 | did not make truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He brings the | light of truth into the darkness and lets it shine on you. And as it |
| Tx:13.59 | you. And as it shines, your brothers see it, and realizing that this | light is not what you have made, they see in you more than you see. |
| Tx:13.59 | than you see. They will be happy learners of the lesson which this | light brings to them because it teaches them release from nothing and |
| Tx:13.59 | them unto despair they do not see as nothing until you bring the | light to them. And then they see the chains have disappeared, and so |
| Tx:13.62 | this door of nothing and behind it is nothing. The key is only the | light which shines away the shapes and forms and fears of nothing. |
| Tx:13.62 | gives it to you that you may join Him in the holy task of bringing | light to darkness. For, like your brothers, you do not realize the |
| Tx:13.62 | light to darkness. For, like your brothers, you do not realize the | light has come and freed you from the sleep of darkness. |
| Tx:13.63 | in their freedom and learn of them how to be free of darkness. The | light in you will waken them, and they will not leave you asleep. The |
| Tx:13.70 | given him to heal is another opportunity to replace darkness with | light and fear with love. If he refuses it, he binds himself to |
| Tx:13.70 | to darkness because he did not choose to free his brother and enter | light with him. By giving power to nothing, he threw away the joyous |
| Tx:13.70 | And by not dispelling darkness, he became afraid of darkness and of | light. The joy of learning that darkness has no power over the Son of |
| Tx:13.80 | decisions are reflections of what God knows about you, and in this | light, error of any kind becomes impossible. Why would you struggle |
| Tx:14.3 | The Children of Heaven live in the | light of the blessing of their Father because they know that they are |
| Tx:14.8 | would steal it away and keep it from his sight. Bring innocence to | light in answer to the call of the Atonement. Never allow purity to |
| Tx:14.16 | The journey that we undertake together is the exchange of dark for | light, of ignorance for understanding. Nothing you understand is |
| Tx:14.17 | The quiet | light in which the Holy Spirit dwells within you is merely perfect |
| Tx:14.17 | brought to love, not hidden from it. There is no darkness that the | light of love will not dispel, unless it is concealed from love's |
| Tx:14.18 | will be so no longer. Without protection of obscurity, only the | light of love remains, for only this has meaning and can live in |
| Tx:14.18 | the light of love remains, for only this has meaning and can live in | light. Everything else must disappear. |
| Tx:14.19 | Death yields to life simply because destruction is not true. The | light of guiltlessness shines guilt away because, when they are |
| Tx:14.23 | But bring them to Him, and let His gentleness teach you that in the | light they are not fearful and cannot serve to guard the dark doors |
| Tx:14.23 | at all is carefully concealed. We must open all doors and let the | light come streaming through. There are no hidden chambers in God's |
| Tx:14.24 | What do you want? | Light or darkness, knowledge or ignorance are yours, but not both. |
| Tx:14.24 | real must disappear, for truth is union. As darkness disappears in | light, so ignorance fades away when knowledge dawns. Perception is |
| Tx:14.28 | apparent. One will go because the other is seen in the same place. | Light cannot enter darkness when a mind believes in darkness and will |
| Tx:14.30 | and lighten it away. At your request He enters gladly. He brings the | light to darkness if you make the darkness open to Him. But what you |
| Tx:14.30 | and secret thoughts to Him and look upon them with Him. He holds the | light, and you the darkness. They cannot coexist when both of you |
| Tx:14.39 | when its impossible nature is clearly revealed? What disappears in | light is not attacked. It merely vanishes because it is not true. |
| Tx:14.42 | of Himself can be perceived upon it. Reflections are seen in | light. In darkness they are obscure, and their meaning seems to lie |
| Tx:14.44 | it as the same. All bring their different problems to its healing | light, but all their problems are met only with healing there. |
| Tx:14.49 | a moment and grow dim as darkness blots them out. Where there was | light, darkness removes it in an instant, and alternating patterns of |
| Tx:14.49 | darkness removes it in an instant, and alternating patterns of | light and darkness sweep constantly across your minds. |
| Tx:14.55 | it. If you undertake the search together, you bring with you a | light so powerful that what you see is given meaning. The lonely |
| Tx:14.60 | Do not attempt to understand any event or anything or anyone in its | light, for the light of darkness by which you try to see can only |
| Tx:14.60 | to understand any event or anything or anyone in its light, for the | light of darkness by which you try to see can only obscure. |
| Tx:14.61 | to illuminate your understanding, for if you do, you contradict the | light and thereby think you see the darkness. Yet darkness cannot be |
| Tx:14.61 | yet brought all of the darkness you have taught yourselves unto the | light in you can hardly judge the truth and value of this course. Yet |
| Tx:14.61 | another lesson sent from Him, already learned for every Child of | light by Him to Whom God gave it. This lesson shines with God's |
| Tx:14.62 | closed to take. Every dark lesson that you bring to Him Who teaches | light He will accept from you because you do not want it. And He will |
| Tx:14.65 | how to respond to it. And I will not use my own past learning as the | light to guide me now. |
| Tx:14.69 | or trial you have has been undone. He has brought all of them to | light, having accepted them instead of you and recognized they never |
| Tx:15.62 | the lifting of the veil and felt himself drawn irresistibly into the | light behind it can have faith in love without fear. Yet the Holy |
| Tx:15.67 | it is and have judged it completely in the dark. As we bring it to | light, your only question will be why it was you ever wanted it. You |
| Tx:15.102 | The sign of Christmas is a star, a | light in darkness. See it not outside yourself but shining in the |
| Tx:16.8 | and secret from each other. That is not the way, for it leads not to | light and truth. No needs will long be left unmet if you leave them |
| Tx:16.68 | The joy of Heaven, which has no limit, is increased with each | light that returns to take its rightful place within it. Wait no |
| Tx:17.10 | The stars will disappear in | light, and the sun which opened up the world to beauty will vanish. |
| Tx:17.11 | and uncover to you the seeming reasons for your making it. In the | light of the real reason which He brings, as you follow Him, He will |
| Tx:17.22 | you will do gladly if you but let Him hold the spark before you to | light your way and make it clear to you. God's Son is one. Whom God |
| Tx:17.34 | rubies, and the tears are faceted like diamonds and gleam in the dim | light in which the offering is made. |
| Tx:17.38 | disproportionate enclosure. The other is lightly framed and hung in | light, lovely to look upon for what it is. |
| Tx:17.39 | stone which seems to shine in darkness from the frame is exposed to | light, it becomes dull and lifeless and ceases to distract you from |
| Tx:17.40 | both are seen in relation to each other. The dark picture brought to | light is not perceived as fearful, but the fact that it is just a |
| Tx:17.41 | The picture of | light, in clear cut and unmistakable contrast, is transformed into |
| Tx:17.48 | find yourselves in an insane relationship, recognized as such in the | light of its goal. |
| Tx:17.53 | your appreciation flickered and grown dim in what seemed to be the | light of the mistakes? You are now entering upon a campaign to blame |
| Tx:17.71 | That Cause has entered any situation which shares Its purpose. The | light of truth shines from the center of the situation and touches |
| Tx:18.13 | is given you with the glowing purpose in which you join. The holy | light that brought you together must extend, as you accepted it. |
| Tx:18.24 | has led to other dreams, and every fantasy which seemed to bring a | light into the darkness but made the darkness deeper. Your goal was |
| Tx:18.24 | made the darkness deeper. Your goal was darkness in which no ray of | light could enter. And you sought a blackness so complete that you |
| Tx:18.24 | What you forgot was simply that God cannot destroy Himself. The | light is in you. Darkness can cover it but cannot put it out. |
| Tx:18.25 | As the | light comes nearer, you will rush to darkness, shrinking from the |
| Tx:18.25 | you have stepped back. Let us then join quickly in an instant of | light, and it will be enough to remind you that your goal is light. |
| Tx:18.25 | of light, and it will be enough to remind you that your goal is | light. Truth has rushed to meet you since you called upon it. |
| Tx:18.27 | you agreed to leave with me? In your relationship is this world's | light. And fear must disappear before you now. Be tempted not to |
| Tx:18.29 | who hid in darkness. You have been willing to bring the darkness to | light, and this willingness has given strength to everyone who would |
| Tx:18.29 | who would see will see. And they will join with me in carrying their | light into the darkness when the darkness in them is offered to the |
| Tx:18.29 | light into the darkness when the darkness in them is offered to the | light and is removed forever. My need for you, joined with me in the |
| Tx:18.29 | and is removed forever. My need for you, joined with me in the holy | light of your relationship, is your need for salvation. Would I not |
| Tx:18.30 | who are now the bringers of salvation have the function of bringing | light to darkness. The darkness in you has been brought to light. |
| Tx:18.30 | bringing light to darkness. The darkness in you has been brought to | light. Carry it back to darkness from the holy instant to which you |
| Tx:18.31 | Not one | light in Heaven but goes with you. Not one ray that shines forever in |
| Tx:18.31 | Heaven is joined with you in your advance to Heaven. When such great | light has joined with you to give the little spark of your desire the |
| Tx:18.31 | apart and which led nowhere. You have found each other and will | light each other's way. And from this light will the Great Rays |
| Tx:18.31 | have found each other and will light each other's way. And from this | light will the Great Rays extend back into darkness and forward unto |
| Tx:18.31 | room for His eternal Presence, in which everything is radiant in the | light. |
| Tx:18.67 | with temptation and fight against the giving in to sin; when the | light comes at last into the mind given to contemplation; or when the |
| Tx:18.84 | You have been told to bring the darkness to the | light and guilt to holiness. And you have also been told that error |
| Tx:18.85 | to you, returning your little offering of darkness to the eternal | Light. |
| Tx:18.89 | Its thinness and transparency are not apparent until you see the | light behind it. And then you see it as a fragile veil before the |
| Tx:18.89 | light behind it. And then you see it as a fragile veil before the | light. |
| Tx:18.92 | nature as He leads you past them, for beneath them is a world of | light whereon they cast no shadows. Their shadows lie upon the world |
| Tx:18.92 | Their shadows lie upon the world beyond them, still further from the | light. Yet from them to the light their shadows cannot fall. |
| Tx:18.92 | beyond them, still further from the light. Yet from them to the | light their shadows cannot fall. |
| Tx:18.93 | This world of | light, this circle of brightness, is the real world where guilt meets |
| Tx:18.94 | you to something completely different. Here is the Source of | light—nothing perceived, forgiven, nor transformed, but merely |
| Tx:18.97 | with forgiveness, and set shining and firmly rooted in the world of | light. From there, it calls to you to follow the course it took, |
| Tx:19.39 | see the Holy Spirit, but you can see your brothers truly. And the | light in them will show you all that you need to see. When the peace |
| Tx:19.45 | keep you from the sun? No more can you be kept by shadows from the | light in which illusions end. Every miracle is but the end of an |
| Tx:19.65 | me all the sins you think the Son of God committed. And in the | light of your forgiveness, he will remember who he is and forget what |
| Tx:19.67 | already, will be the focus of the new perception that will bring | light to all the world, contained in you. |
| Tx:19.84 | For death is seen as safety, the great dark savior from the | light of truth, the answer to the Answer, the silencer of the Voice |
| Tx:19.91 | like to a leper's and the bright rays of His Father's love which | light His face with glory appear as streams of blood, fades in the |
| Tx:19.91 | His face with glory appear as streams of blood, fades in the blazing | light beyond it when the fear of death is gone. |
| Tx:20.3 | and delay him there. Help him to go in peace beyond it, with the | light of his own innocence lighting his way to his redemption and |
| Tx:20.7 | upon it, making it worthy of their devotion. And each has set a | light upon his altar, that they may see what he has placed upon it |
| Tx:20.8 | offer me. If it be thorns whose points gleam sharply in a blood-red | light, the body is your chosen home, and it is separation that you |
| Tx:20.13 | you not have your holy brother lead you there? His innocence will | light your way, offering you its guiding light and sure protection, |
| Tx:20.13 | there? His innocence will light your way, offering you its guiding | light and sure protection, and shining from the holy altar within him |
| Tx:20.22 | He came without a purpose, but he will not remain before the shining | light the Holy Spirit offered and you accepted. For there the |
| Tx:20.25 | and with eyes so long cast down in darkness they remember not the | light, do not leap up in joy the instant they are made free. It takes |
| Tx:20.27 | as God created His Son holy and kept him so. In your brother is the | light of God's eternal promise of your immortality. See him as |
| Tx:20.41 | The little breath of eternity that runs through time like golden | light is all the same—nothing before it, nothing afterwards. |
| Tx:20.69 | Your brother's sinlessness is given you in shining | light, to look on with the Holy Spirit's vision and to rejoice in |
| Tx:21.4 | can see where safety lies and which way leads to darkness, which to | light. Judgment will always give you false directions, but vision |
| Tx:21.10 | everything you see and yet somehow familiar, is an arc of golden | light that stretches as you look into a great and shining circle. And |
| Tx:21.10 | look into a great and shining circle. And all the circle fills with | light before your eyes. The edges of the circle disappear, and what |
| Tx:21.10 | disappear, and what is in it is no longer contained at all. The | light expands and covers everything, extending to infinity, forever |
| Tx:21.10 | that anything could be outside, for there is nowhere that this | light is not. |
| Tx:21.12 | this remembering? And who is there in whom this memory lies not? The | light in one awakens it in all. And when you see it in each other, |
| Tx:21.39 | other has disappeared from sight. Nor is it possible that what gives | light be one with what depends on darkness to be seen. Neither |
| Tx:21.40 | to sin, and in the darkness so it still is seen. Yet in the | light of vision, it is looked upon quite differently. You can have |
| Tx:21.42 | the ego tells you not to look inward, for if you do, your eyes will | light on sin, and God will strike you blind. This you believe, and so |
| Tx:22.27 | the bodies that you interposed between you and shining in the golden | light which reaches it from the bright endless circle that extends |
| Tx:22.27 | and disappears. For at its center Christ has been reborn to | light His home with vision that overlooks the world. Would you not |
| Tx:22.40 | the veil. Think what will happen after! The love of Christ will | light your faces and shine from them into a darkened world that needs |
| Tx:22.40 | your faces and shine from them into a darkened world that needs the | light. And from this holy place He will return with you, not leaving |
| Tx:22.41 | beautiful the sight you saw beyond the veil which you will bring to | light the tired eyes of those as weary now as once you were. How |
| Tx:22.54 | lovely in its innocence, mighty in strength, and blazing with a | light far brighter than the sun which lights the sky you see, is |
| Tx:22.55 | And every empty place in Heaven that you fill again with the Eternal | Light you bring shines now on you. The means of sinlessness can know |
| Tx:22.56 | Children of peace, the | light has come to you. The light you bring you do not recognize, and |
| Tx:22.56 | Children of peace, the light has come to you. The | light you bring you do not recognize, and yet you will remember. Who |
| Tx:22.59 | each other. And let the darkness be dispelled by Him Who knows the | light and lays it gently in each quiet smile of faith and confidence |
| Tx:22.65 | The | light that joins you shines throughout the universe, and because it |
| Tx:23.5 | alone in his temptation but help him rise above it and perceive the | light of which he is a part. Your innocence will light the way to |
| Tx:23.5 | it and perceive the light of which he is a part. Your innocence will | light the way to his, and so is yours protected and kept in your |
| Tx:23.6 | around you but is part of you. Look on it lovingly, and see the | light of Heaven in it. So will you come to understand all that is |
| Tx:23.17 | the house of God perceives itself divided. The altar disappears, the | light grows dim, the temple of the Holy One becomes a house of sin. |
| Tx:23.19 | The “laws” of chaos can be brought to | light, though never understood. Chaotic laws are hardly meaningful |
| Tx:23.50 | The lovely | light of your relationship is like the love of God. It cannot yet |
| Tx:23.54 | They want for nothing. Sorrow of any kind is inconceivable. Only the | light they love is in awareness, and only love shines upon them |
| Tx:24.44 | is given them. And what they see and hear and hold and lead is given | light that you may lead as you were led. |
| Tx:24.59 | entry shut against intrusion and every window barred against the | light. Always attacked and always furious, with anger always fully |
| Tx:24.66 | is perceived as means for truth shares in its holiness and rests in | light as safely as itself. Nor will that light go out when it is |
| Tx:24.66 | its holiness and rests in light as safely as itself. Nor will that | light go out when it is gone. Its holy purpose gave it immortality, |
| Tx:24.66 | it is gone. Its holy purpose gave it immortality, setting another | light in Heaven, where your creations recognize a gift from you, a |
| Tx:24.70 | yourself, and you will see a body. Look at this body in a different | light, and it looks different. And without a light, it seems that it |
| Tx:24.70 | body in a different light, and it looks different. And without a | light, it seems that it is gone. Yet you are reassured that it is |
| Tx:25.3 | that Christ sets forth the remedy. His purpose folds the body in His | light and fills it with the holiness that shines from Him. And |
| Tx:25.7 | each body that it looks upon and brushes all its darkness into | light merely by looking past it to the light. The veil is lifted |
| Tx:25.7 | brushes all its darkness into light merely by looking past it to the | light. The veil is lifted through its gentleness, and nothing hides |
| Tx:25.18 | up the sinlessness the frame of darkness hides and casts a veil of | light across the picture's face, which but reflects the light that |
| Tx:25.18 | a veil of light across the picture's face, which but reflects the | light that shines from it to its Creator. Think not this face was |
| Tx:25.22 | you is given the power of salvation that escape from darkness into | light be yours to share; that you may see as one what never has been |
| Tx:25.27 | attempts of specialness to put it out of mind where it must be and | light the body up instead of it. The lamps of Heaven are not for it |
| Tx:25.27 | with Heaven's Help within him ready to lead him out of darkness into | light at any time. |
| Tx:25.29 | want to see peace and forgiveness descend on them and offer them the | light. |
| Tx:25.34 | which extends to all of them and covers them in gentleness and | light. And in this widening world of light, the darkness they thought |
| Tx:25.34 | covers them in gentleness and light. And in this widening world of | light, the darkness they thought was there is pushed away until it is |
| Tx:25.35 | the sun in you has risen that they may be pushed away before the | light. They linger for a while, a little while, in twisted forms too |
| Tx:25.36 | mistakes be brought to truth than by your willingness to bring the | light of Heaven with you as you walk beyond the world of darkness |
| Tx:25.36 | of Heaven with you as you walk beyond the world of darkness into | light? |
| Tx:25.44 | Eyes become used to darkness, and the | light of brilliant day seems painful to the eyes grown long |
| Tx:25.44 | calls down the grace of God upon your eyes and brings the gift of | light that makes sight possible. |
| Tx:25.49 | Only in darkness does your specialness appear to be attack. In | light, you see it as your special function in the plan to save the |
| Tx:25.56 | problem is their choices are not free and made with reason in the | light of sense. |
| Tx:26.7 | is known to God and can no more be sacrificed by you than can the | light in you be blotted out because he sees it not. You who would |
| Tx:26.26 | sin into a world of glory, wonderful to see. Each flower shines in | light, and every bird sings of the joy of Heaven. There is no |
| Tx:26.27 | altars is set where once sin was believed to be. And here does every | light of heaven come to be rekindled and increased in joy. For here |
| Tx:26.40 | present. Here the shadow of the past remains, but still a present | light is dimly recognized. Once it is seen, this light can never be |
| Tx:26.40 | but still a present light is dimly recognized. Once it is seen, this | light can never be forgotten. It must draw you from the past into the |
| Tx:26.47 | from awareness that it may be carefully preserved from reason's | light. |
| Tx:26.65 | answer and no problem which is not resolved within its gracious | light. |
| Tx:26.79 | was a place of death has now become a living temple in a world of | light. Because of Them. It is Their Presence which has lifted |
| Tx:26.81 | Their Own. What has been locked is opened; what was held apart from | light is given up, that light may shine on it, and leave no space nor |
| Tx:26.81 | locked is opened; what was held apart from light is given up, that | light may shine on it, and leave no space nor distance lingering |
| Tx:26.81 | shine on it, and leave no space nor distance lingering between the | light of Heaven and the world. |
| Tx:26.82 | as yours. What hatred has released to love becomes the brightest | light in Heaven's radiance. And all the lights in Heaven brighter |
| Tx:26.83 | lovingly, to keep away all darkened thoughts of sin and keep the | light where it has entered in. Your footprints lighten up the world, |
| Tx:26.90 | perceive to lighten up your way. And so you see yourself deprived of | light, abandoned to the dark, unfairly left without a purpose in a |
| Tx:26.90 | world is fair because the Holy Spirit has brought injustice to the | light within, and there has all unfairness been resolved and been |
| Tx:27.36 | be an answer from one point of view is not an answer in another | light. You are in conflict. Thus it must be clear you cannot answer |
| Tx:27.48 | in thanks to you who blessing gave. The holy instant's radiance will | light your eyes and give them sight to see beyond all suffering and |
| Tx:27.76 | your Father gives to you. Let all your brother's gifts be seen in | light of charity and kindness offered you. And let no pain disturb |
| Tx:29.3 | but this one still remains to block your path and make the way to | light seem dark and fearful, perilous and bleak. You had decided that |
| Tx:29.21 | of truth—no more, perhaps, than just a tiny spark, a space of | light created in the dark, where God still shines. |
| Tx:29.22 | savior from your dreams. And as you see him shining in the space of | light where God abides within the darkness, you will see that God |
| Tx:29.22 | you will see that God Himself is where his body is. Before this | light the body disappears, as heavy shadows must give way to light. |
| Tx:29.22 | this light the body disappears, as heavy shadows must give way to | light. The darkness cannot choose that it remain. The coming of the |
| Tx:29.22 | light. The darkness cannot choose that it remain. The coming of the | light means it is gone. In glory will you see your brother then and |
| Tx:29.23 | your brother, that the darkness may be lifted from your mind. When | light has come to him through your forgiveness, he will not forget |
| Tx:29.23 | his savior, leaving him unsaved. For it was in your face he saw the | light that he would keep beside him as he walks through darkness to |
| Tx:29.23 | keep beside him as he walks through darkness to the everlasting | light. |
| Tx:29.24 | And as his Father lost not part of Him in your creation, so the | light in him is brighter still because you gave your light to him to |
| Tx:29.24 | so the light in him is brighter still because you gave your | light to him to save him from the dark. And now the light in you must |
| Tx:29.24 | you gave your light to him to save him from the dark. And now the | light in you must be as bright as shines in him. This is the spark |
| Tx:29.35 | beyond forgiveness, you would not keep hold on any thought, however | light the touch of evil on it may appear to be. For you would |
| Tx:29.50 | have made of your reality an idol which you must protect against the | light of truth. And all the world becomes the means by which this |
| Tx:29.54 | which seems to shut you off from Him, alone in darkness. Yet the | light is there. A cloud does not put out the sun. No more a veil can |
| Tx:29.54 | veil can banish what it seems to separate nor darken by one whit the | light itself. |
| Tx:29.56 | and eternal peace. The miracle does not restore the truth, the | light the veil between has not put out. It merely lifts the veil and |
| Tx:29.58 | time can interrupt eternity? A place of darkness set where all is | light, a dismal alcove separated off from what is endless, has no |
| Tx:29.64 | have accomplished and have done to make you sinful and put out the | light within you. Little children, it is there. You do but dream, and |
| Tx:30.35 | but gives you thanks, for it is by your will that it was born. No | light of Heaven shines except for you, for it was set in Heaven by |
| Tx:30.45 | eternity. There was no time it was not there; no instant when its | light grew dimmer or less perfect ever was. |
| Tx:30.46 | Who knows the Father knows this | light, for He is the eternal sky which holds it safe, forever lifted |
| Tx:30.64 | How | light and easy is the step across the narrow boundaries of the world |
| Tx:30.83 | show there was no meaning there? But you assigned a meaning in the | light of goals that change, with every meaning shifting as they |
| Tx:30.87 | And looked at separately, they have no meaning. For there is no | light by which they can be seen and understood. They have no purpose. |
| Tx:31.25 | alone with no one by your side? This is the road to nowhere, for the | light cannot be given while you walk alone, and so you cannot see |
| Tx:31.25 | is and how it must be made. For next to you is One Who holds the | light before you so that every step is made in certainty and sureness |
| Tx:31.25 | make the way itself grow dark. And He Who travels with you has the | light. |
| Tx:31.48 | kept in darkness where they cannot be perceived as errors, which the | light would surely show. You can be neither blamed for what you are, |
| Tx:31.53 | the reason why this concept must be kept in darkness is that in the | light the one who would not think it true is you. And what would |
| Tx:31.59 | and been recognized as made on no assumptions which would stand the | light, then is the truth left free to enter in its sanctuary, clean |
| Tx:31.67 | change. The truth in you remains as radiant as a star, as pure as | light, as innocent as Love Itself. And you are worthy that your will |
| Tx:31.74 | and warps your vision, so that you behold nothing with clarity. The | light is kept from everything you see. At most, you glimpse a shadow |
| Tx:31.75 | he looks on everyone as he beholds this One. For there is | light where darkness was before, and now the veil is lifted from his |
| Tx:31.78 | between his calm and open eyes and what he sees. He brings the | light to what he looks upon, that he may see it as it really is. |
| Tx:31.82 | Let not the world's | light, given unto you, be hidden from the world. It needs the light, |
| Tx:31.82 | light, given unto you, be hidden from the world. It needs the | light, for it is dark indeed, and men despair because the savior's |
| Tx:31.86 | weakness to direct your actions, you have given it no power. And the | light of Christ in you is given charge of everything you do. For you |
| Tx:31.96 | past temptation and who looks with fixed determination toward the | light that shines beyond in perfect constancy. Give me my own, for |
| Tx:31.97 | knows You as the only Source it has. Clear in Your Likeness does the | Light shine forth from everything that lives and moves in You. For we |
| W1:15.2 | You will begin to understand it when you have seen little edges of | light around the same familiar objects which you see now. That is the |
| W1:23.4 | a replacement for everything you think you see now. Loveliness can | light your images and so transform them that you will love them even |
| W1:28.2 | seen one thing differently, you will see all things differently. The | light you will see in any one of them is the same light you will see |
| W1:28.2 | differently. The light you will see in any one of them is the same | light you will see in them all. |
| W1:28.8 | should include the name of the subject which your eyes happen to | light on, and you should rest your eyes on it while saying: |
| W1:41.4 | to get past this dark and heavy cloud and to go through it to the | light beyond. |
| W1:44.1 | dimension to it. You cannot see in darkness, and you cannot make | light. You can make darkness and then think you see in it, but light |
| W1:44.1 | make light. You can make darkness and then think you see in it, but | light reflects life and is therefore an aspect of creation. Creation |
| W1:44.1 | an aspect of creation. Creation and darkness cannot coexist, but | light and life must go together, being but different aspects of |
| W1:44.2 | In order to see, you must recognize that | light is within, not without. You do not see outside yourself, nor is |
| W1:44.2 | for seeing outside you. An essential part of this equipment is the | light that makes seeing possible. It is with you always, making |
| W1:44.3 | Today we are going to attempt to reach that | light. For this purpose, we will use a form of practice which has |
| W1:44.6 | find it helpful to remind yourself from time to time that to reach | light is to escape from darkness, whatever you may believe to the |
| W1:44.6 | from darkness, whatever you may believe to the contrary. God is the | Light in which you see. You are attempting to reach Him. |
| W1:44.10 | a feeling that you are approaching if not actually entering into | light. Try to think of light, formless and without limit, as you pass |
| W1:44.10 | are approaching if not actually entering into light. Try to think of | light, formless and without limit, as you pass by the thoughts of |
| W1:53.6 | and am not allowing my real thoughts to cast their beneficent | light on what I see. Yet God's way is sure. The images I have made |
| W1:56.5 | Behind every veil I have drawn across the face of love, its | light remains undimmed. Beyond all my insane wishes is my will united |
| W1:57.6 | from deep within myself. The world I look upon has taken on the | light of my forgiveness and shines forgiveness back at me. In this |
| W1:57.6 | light of my forgiveness and shines forgiveness back at me. In this | light, I begin to see what my illusions about myself had kept hidden. |
| W1:58.3 | does not bless me alone. Everyone and everything I see in its | light shares in the joy it brings to me. There is nothing that is |
| W1:59.5 | [44] God is the | Light in which I see. I cannot see in darkness. God is the only |
| W1:59.5 | the Light in which I see. I cannot see in darkness. God is the only | Light. Therefore if I am to see, it must be through Him. I have tried |
| W1:59.5 | I have been wrong. Now it is given me to understand that God is the | Light in which I see. Let me welcome vision and the happy world it |
| W1:61.1 | Who is the | light of the world except God's Son? This, then, is merely a |
| W1:61.2 | taking no other. It is not humility to insist that you cannot be the | light of the world if that is the function God assigned to you. It is |
| W1:61.6 | I am the | light of the world. That is my only function. That is why I am here. |
| W1:61.10 | You are the | light of the world. God has built His plan for the salvation of His |
| W1:62.1 | It is your forgiveness that will bring the world of darkness to the | light. It is your forgiveness that lets you recognize the light in |
| W1:62.1 | to the light. It is your forgiveness that lets you recognize the | light in which you see. Forgiveness is the demonstration that you are |
| W1:62.1 | in which you see. Forgiveness is the demonstration that you are the | light of the world. Through your forgiveness does the truth about |
| W1:62.6 | Forgiveness is my function as the | light of the world. I would fulfill my function that I may be happy. |
| W1:63.2 | You are indeed the | light of the world with such a function. The Son of God looks to you |
| W1:63.4 | The | light of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. |
| W1:64.3 | To review our last few lessons, your function here is to be the | light of the world, a function given you by God. It is only the |
| W1:67.1 | and accurate statement of what you are. This is why you are the | light of the world. This is why God appointed you as the world's |
| W1:67.6 | the interval of thoughtlessness to the awareness of a blazing | light in which you recognize yourself as Love created you. Be |
| W1:69.1 | what your grievances conceal. Because your grievances are hiding the | light of the world in you, everyone stands in darkness, and you |
| W1:69.1 | stood beside you when you were in hell. He is your brother in the | light of the world which saves you both. |
| W1:69.2 | Today let us make another real attempt to reach the | light in you. Before we undertake this in our more extended practice |
| W1:69.3 | is our only goal. Let us end the ancient search today by finding the | light in us and holding it up for everyone who searches with us to |
| W1:69.5 | you stand, you can see no reason to believe there is a brilliant | light hidden by the clouds. The clouds seem to be the only reality. |
| W1:69.6 | perfect stillness, remembering only how much you want to reach the | light in you today—now. Determine to go past the clouds. Reach out |
| W1:69.7 | to help you, and God Himself will raise you from darkness into | light. You are in accord with His Will. You cannot fail because your |
| W1:69.8 | yet receive it. Try, as you attempt to go through the clouds to the | light, to hold this confidence in your mind. Try to remember that you |
| W1:69.9 | your happiness, remind yourself that your grievances are hiding the | light of the world from your awareness. Remind yourself also that you |
| W1:69.10 | My grievances hide the | light of the world in me. I cannot see what I have hidden. Yet I want |
| W1:69.12 | If I hold this grievance, the | light of the world will be hidden from me, |
| W1:70.12 | Now we will try again to reach the | light in you, which is where your salvation is. You cannot find it in |
| W1:70.12 | salvation is. You cannot find it in the clouds that surround the | light, and it is in them you have been looking for it. It is not |
| W1:70.12 | looking for it. It is not there. It is past the clouds and in the | light beyond. Remember that you will have to go through the clouds |
| W1:70.12 | that you will have to go through the clouds before you can reach the | light. But remember also that you have never found anything in the |
| W1:70.13 | vainly for idols there when you could so easily walk on into the | light of real salvation. Try to pass the clouds by whatever means |
| W1:72.10 | The | light of truth is in us, where it was placed by God. It is the body |
| W1:72.10 | To be without a body is to be in our natural state. To recognize the | light of truth in us is to recognize ourselves as we are. To see our |
| W1:73.4 | more to reach the world that is in accordance with your will. The | light is in it because it does not oppose the Will of God. It is not |
| W1:73.4 | it does not oppose the Will of God. It is not Heaven, but the | light of Heaven shines on it. Darkness has vanished; the ego's idle |
| W1:73.5 | Yet the | light which shines upon this world reflects your will, and so it must |
| W1:73.5 | of the world can only mirror what is within. The source of neither | light nor darkness can be found without. Grievances darken your mind, |
| W1:73.5 | the darkness, reasserts your will, and lets you look upon a world of | light. |
| W1:73.11 | to his awareness. He is willing this very day to look upon the | light in him and be saved. |
| W1:73.13 | I will there be | light. Let me behold the light that reflects God's Will and mine. |
| W1:73.13 | I will there be light. Let me behold the | light that reflects God's Will and mine. |
| W1:73.16 | I will there be | light. Darkness is not my will. |
| W1:75.1 | The | light has come. You are healed and you can heal. The light has come. |
| W1:75.1 | The light has come. You are healed and you can heal. The | light has come. You are saved, and you can save. You are at peace, |
| W1:75.1 | you go. Darkness and turmoil and death have disappeared. The | light has come. |
| W1:75.2 | to your long dream of disaster. There are no dark dreams now. The | light has come. Today the time of light begins for you and everyone. |
| W1:75.2 | There are no dark dreams now. The light has come. Today the time of | light begins for you and everyone. It is a new era in which a new |
| W1:75.2 | upon it in its passing. Today we see a different world because the | light has come. |
| W1:75.3 | we want to see. We will be given what we desire. We will to see the | light; the light has come. |
| W1:75.3 | see. We will be given what we desire. We will to see the light; the | light has come. |
| W1:75.4 | us in gladness, to be seen at last. Sight is given us, now that the | light has come. |
| W1:75.5 | We do not see the ego's shadow on the world today. We see the | light, and in it we see Heaven's reflection lie across the world. |
| W1:75.6 | The | light has come. I have forgiven the world. |
| W1:75.8 | The | light has come. I have forgiven the world. |
| W1:75.9 | have joined with Him. Wait patiently for Him. He will be there. The | light has come. You have forgiven the world. |
| W1:75.10 | you. From this time forth you will see differently. Today the | light has come. And you will see the world that has been promised you |
| W1:75.12 | The | light has come. I have forgiven the world. |
| W1:75.14 | The | light has come. I have forgiven you. |
| W1:76.7 | us free forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of God set free. The | light has come because there are no laws but His. |
| W1:78.1 | not see the miracle beyond. Yet all the while it waits for you in | light, but you behold your grievances instead. |
| W1:78.3 | your grievances, and as you lay them down, he will appear in shining | light where each one stood before. For every grievance is a block to |
| W1:78.3 | lifts, you see the Son of God where he has always been. He stands in | light, but you were in the dark. Each grievance made the darkness |
| W1:78.8 | we may look on him a different way and see our savior shining in the | light of true forgiveness given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name |
| W1:78.9 | You have appointed as the one for me to ask to lead me to the holy | light In which he stands, that I may join with him. |
| W1:78.10 | and as you think of him who grieved you, let your mind be shown the | light in him beyond your grievances. What you have asked for cannot |
| W1:78.12 | when we allow each one we meet to save us and refuse to hide his | light behind our grievances. To everyone you meet and to the ones you |
| W1:80.2 | to give you God's answer. You have laid deception aside and seen the | light of truth. You have accepted salvation for yourself by bringing |
| W1:81.2 | [61] I am the | light of the world. How holy am I, who have been given the function |
| W1:81.2 | up the world! Let me be still before my holiness. In its calm | light, let all my conflicts disappear. In its peace, let me remember |
| W1:81.4 | Let me not obscure the | light of the world in me. Let the light of the world shine through |
| W1:81.4 | Let me not obscure the light of the world in me. Let the | light of the world shine through this appearance. This shadow will |
| W1:81.4 | shine through this appearance. This shadow will vanish before the | light. |
| W1:81.5 | [62] Forgiveness is my function as the | light of the world. It is through accepting my function that I will |
| W1:81.5 | the world. It is through accepting my function that I will see the | light in me. And in this light will my function stand clear and |
| W1:81.5 | accepting my function that I will see the light in me. And in this | light will my function stand clear and perfectly unambiguous before |
| W1:81.5 | I do not yet understand forgiveness. Yet I will trust that in the | light I will see it as it is. |
| W1:82.2 | [63] The | light of the world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. |
| W1:82.2 | through my forgiveness. My forgiveness is the means by which the | light of the world finds expression through me. My forgiveness is the |
| W1:82.2 | me. My forgiveness is the means by which I become aware of the | light of the world in me. My forgiveness is the means by which the |
| W1:82.4 | Let peace extend from my mind to yours, [name]. I share the | light of the world with you, [name]. Through my forgiveness I can see |
| W1:84.5 | are completely alien to love. Grievances attack love and keep its | light obscure. If I hold grievances I am attacking love and therefore |
| W1:85.2 | [69] My grievances hide the | light of the world in me. My grievances show me what is not there and |
| W1:85.2 | do I want my grievances for? They keep me in darkness and hide the | light. Grievances and light cannot go together, but light and vision |
| W1:85.2 | for? They keep me in darkness and hide the light. Grievances and | light cannot go together, but light and vision must be joined for me |
| W1:85.2 | and hide the light. Grievances and light cannot go together, but | light and vision must be joined for me to see. To see, I must lay |

| W1:85.5 | me it will reach beyond, and everything I see will but reflect the | light that shines in me and in itself. |
| W1:86.4 | in God's plan for my salvation. Let me perceive this only in the | light of God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:87.2 | [73] I will there be | light. I will use the power of my will today. It is not my will to |
| W1:87.2 | darkness, fearful of shadows and afraid of things unseen and unreal. | Light shall be my guide today. I will follow it where it leads me, |
| W1:87.4 | This cannot hide the | light I will to see. You stand with me in light, [name]. In the light |

| W1:87.4 | the light I will to see. You stand with me in light, [name]. In the | light this will look different. |
| W1:88.2 | [75] The | light has come. In choosing salvation rather than attack, I merely |
| W1:88.2 | truth and illusion, between what is there and what is not. The | light has come. I can but choose the light, for it has no |
| W1:88.2 | is there and what is not. The light has come. I can but choose the | light, for it has no alternative. It has replaced the darkness, and |
| W1:88.4 | This cannot show me darkness, for the | light has come. The light in you is all that I would see, [name]. I |

| W1:91.1 | awareness of miracles that is affected. You will see them in the | light; you will not see them in the dark. |
| W1:91.2 | To you, then, | light is crucial. While you remain in darkness, the miracle remains |

| W1:91.13 | period in which you share a purpose like Their own. Theirs is the | light in which you will see miracles because Their strength is yours. |
| W1:91.14 | regular intervals remind yourself that miracles are seen in | light. Also, be sure to meet temptation with today's idea. This form |
| W1:91.15 | Miracles are seen in | light. Let me not close my eyes because of this. |
| W1:92.1 | for today is an extension of the previous one. You do not think of | light in terms of strength and darkness in terms of weakness. That is |
| W1:92.3 | It is God's strength in you that is the | light in which you see, as it is His Mind with which you think. His |
| W1:92.4 | things by seeing past appearances. It keeps its steady gaze upon the | light that lies beyond them. It unites with light, of which it is a |
| W1:92.4 | its steady gaze upon the light that lies beyond them. It unites with | light, of which it is a part. It sees itself. It brings the light in |
| W1:92.4 | with light, of which it is a part. It sees itself. It brings the | light in which your Self appears. In darkness you perceive a self |
| W1:92.5 | dispelled and darkness rule where God appointed that there should be | light. Strength comes from truth and shines with light its Source has |
| W1:92.5 | there should be light. Strength comes from truth and shines with | light its Source has given it; weakness reflects the darkness of its |
| W1:92.6 | sees that lack in anyone would be a lack in all, and so it gives its | light that all may see and benefit as one. Its strength is shared |
| W1:92.7 | here, but only hate. It separates itself from what it sees, while | light and strength perceive themselves as one. |
| W1:92.8 | The | light of strength is not the light you see. It does not change and |
| W1:92.8 | The light of strength is not the | light you see. It does not change and flicker and go out. It does not |
| W1:92.8 | night to day and back to darkness till the morning comes again. The | light of strength is constant, sure as love, forever glad to give |
| W1:92.8 | abode can leave without a miracle before his eyes and strength and | light abiding in his heart. |
| W1:92.9 | The strength in you will offer you the | light and guide your seeing, so you do not dwell on idle shadows that |
| W1:92.9 | that the body's eyes provide for self-deception. Strength and | light unite in you, and where they meet, your Self stands ready to |
| W1:92.10 | Let yourself be brought unto your Self. Its strength will be the | light in which the gift of sight is given you. Leave, then, the dark |
| W1:92.10 | the dark a little while today, and we will practice seeing in the | light, closing the body's eyes and asking truth to show us how to |
| W1:92.10 | to show us how to find the meeting place of self and Self, where | light and strength are one. |
| W1:92.11 | we are being introduced to sight and led away from darkness to the | light, where only miracles can be perceived. |
| W1:93.4 | nothing, that you are as pure and holy as you were created, and that | light and joy and peace abide in you? Your image of yourself cannot |

| W1:93.7 | by God. You are and will forever be exactly as you were created. | Light and joy and peace abide in you because God put them there. |

| W1:94.2 | True | light is strength, and strength is sinlessness. If you remain as God |
| W1:94.2 | If you remain as God created you, you must be strong and | light must be in you. He Who ensured your sinlessness must be the |
| W1:94.2 | Who ensured your sinlessness must be the guarantee of strength and | light as well. You are as God created you. Darkness cannot obscure |
| W1:94.2 | Darkness cannot obscure the glory of the Son of God. You stand in | light, strong in the sinlessness in which you were created and in |
| W1:95.16 | which the words convey. You are One Self, united and secure in | light and joy and peace. You are God's Son, One Self with one Creator |

| W1:98.10 | all bright with faith and confidence so strong and steady they will | light the world with hope and gladness. Do not lose one chance to be |
| W1:99.10 | thoughts and make them real by hiding them from Him. Let in the | light, and you will look upon no obstacle to what He wills for you. |

| W1:99.11 | Practice His thought today, and let His | Light seek out and lighten up all darkened spots and shine through |
| W1:100.3 | your smile, the world cannot be saved. While you are sad, the | light which God Himself appointed as the means to save the world is |
| W1:100.4 | You are indeed essential to God's plan. Just as your | light increases every light that shines in Heaven, so your joy on |

| W1:108.1 | light is in it, for it reconciles all seeming opposites. And what is | light except the resolution, born of peace, of all your conflicts and |
| W1:108.2 | True | light which makes true vision possible is not the light the body's |
| W1:108.2 | True light which makes true vision possible is not the | light the body's eyes behold. It is a state of mind which has become |

| W1:108.3 | opposites, and vision, being healed, has power to heal. This is the | light that brings your peace of mind to other minds, to share it and |
| W1:108.3 | be glad that they are one with you and with themselves. This is the | light which heals because it brings single perception, based upon one |
| W1:108.7 | to offer peace to everyone and see how quickly peace returns to us. | Light is tranquility, and in that peace is vision given us and we can |
| W1:110.3 | you. You need no thought but just this one to let redemption come to | light the world and free it from the past. |

| W1:111.2 | [91] Miracles are seen in light. I cannot see in darkness. Let the | light of holiness and truth light up my mind And let me see the |

| W1:111.3 | [92] Miracles are seen in | light, and light and strength are one. I see through strength, the |
| W1:111.3 | [92] Miracles are seen in light, and | light and strength are one. I see through strength, the gift of God |
| W1:111.5 | Miracles are seen in | light. |

| W1:121.11 | see him in your mind and look at him a while. Try to perceive some | light in him somewhere—a little gleam which you had never noticed. |
| W1:121.11 | picture which you hold of him. Look at this picture till you see a | light somewhere within it, and then try to let this light extend |
| W1:121.11 | till you see a light somewhere within it, and then try to let this | light extend until it covers him and makes the picture beautiful and |
| W1:121.12 | and turn your mind to one you call a friend. Try to transfer the | light you learned to see around your former “enemy” to him. Perceive |
| W1:121.12 | to him. Perceive him now as more than friend to you, for in that | light his holiness shows you your savior, saved and saving, healed |
| W1:121.12 | saved and saving, healed and whole. Then let him offer you the | light you see in him and let your “enemy” and friend unite in |
| W1:122.12 | Before the | light you will receive today the world will fade until it disappears, |
| W1:122.12 | world arise you have no words to picture. Now we walk directly into | light, and we receive the gifts which have been held in store for us |
| W1:122.13 | awareness as you see the changeless in the heart of change, the | light of truth behind appearances. Be tempted not to let your gifts |
| W1:124.1 | We can fail in nothing. Everything we touch takes on a shining | light which blesses and which heals. At one with God and with the |
| W1:124.2 | And those who come to follow us will recognize the way because the | light we carry stays behind, yet still remains with us as we walk on. |
| W1:124.11 | tomorrow, you will look into this glass and understand the sinless | light you see belongs to you, the loveliness you look on is your own. |
| W1:129.9 | in the silent darkness watch the lights that are not of this world | light one by one until where one begins, another ends, losing all |
| W1:129.10 | upon your eyelids as you rest beyond the world of darkness. Here is | light your eyes cannot behold. And yet your mind can see it plainly |
| W1:131.16 | the door swings open with your one intent to go beyond it. Angels | light the way, so that all darkness vanishes and you are standing in |
| W1:131.16 | the way, so that all darkness vanishes and you are standing in a | light so bright and clear that you can understand all things you see. |
| W1:131.16 | you pause before you realize the world you see before you in the | light reflects the truth you knew and did not quite forget in |
| W1:131.17 | door some day and through His aid slip effortlessly past it to the | light. Today that day has come. Today God keeps His ancient promise |
| W1:134.12 | useless armor made to chain his mind to fear and misery. His step is | light, and as he lifts his foot to stride ahead, a star is left |
| W1:135.21 | Without defenses, you become a | light which Heaven gratefully acknowledges to be its own. And it will |
| W1:135.21 | plan begun when time was born. Your followers will join their | light with yours, and it will be increased until the world is lighted |
| W1:135.26 | been aimed at not receiving what you will receive today. And in the | light and joy of simple truth, you will but wonder why you ever |
| W1:135.27 | rise again from what was seeming death and hopelessness. Now is the | light of hope reborn in you, for now you come without defense to |
| W1:136.18 | be no dark corners sickness can conceal and keep defended from the | light of truth. There will be no dim figures from your dreams nor |
| W1:138.10 | raised from its protective shield of unawareness and is brought to | light. Who can decide between the clearly seen and the unrecognized? |
| W1:138.11 | brought to what is real, is flimsy and transparent in the | light. It holds no terror now, for what was made enormous, vengeful, |
| W1:140.2 | so his mind remains exactly as it was before. He has not seen the | light that would awaken him and end the dream. What difference does |
| W1:R4.12 | and through our faithfulness restored the world from darkness to the | light, from grief to joy, from pain to peace, from sin to holiness. |
| W1:151.7 | to God's Son. He recognizes only what God loves, and in the holy | light of what He sees do all the ego's dreams of what you are vanish |
| W1:153.10 | holy is your purpose, how secure you rest, untouchable within its | light. God's ministers have chosen that the truth be with them. Who |
| W1:153.11 | holds the world in grim imprisonment. Nor will you learn that | light has come to you, and your escape has been accomplished. For you |
| W1:153.11 | you, and your escape has been accomplished. For you will not see the | light until you offer it to all your brothers. As they take it from |
| W1:154.15 | The world recedes as we | light up our minds and realize these holy words are true. They are |
| W1:156.4 | There is a | Light in you Which cannot die, Whose Presence is so holy that the |
| W1:156.5 | The | Light in you is what the universe longs to behold. All living things |
| W1:156.5 | are still before you, for they recognize Who walks with you. The | light you carry is their own, and thus they see in you their |
| W1:156.5 | to Holiness itself Which walks with you, transforming in Its gentle | Light all things into Its likeness and Its purity. |
| W1:156.6 | This is the way salvation works. As you step back, the | Light in you steps forward and encompasses the world. It heralds not |
| W1:156.9 | I walk with God in perfect holiness. I | light the world, I light my mind and all the minds which God created |
| W1:156.9 | I walk with God in perfect holiness. I light the world, I | light my mind and all the minds which God created one with me. |
| W1:157.1 | It is a time Heaven has set apart to shine upon and cast a timeless | light upon this day when echoes of eternity are heard. This day is |
| W1:157.2 | We add a new dimension now—a fresh experience that sheds a | light on all that we have learned already and prepares us for what we |
| W1:157.4 | are asking must be given you. Nothing is needed but today's idea to | light your mind and let it rest in still anticipation and in quiet |
| W1:157.6 | being now to bring the vision of what you experience this day to | light the world. We cannot give experience like this directly. Yet it |
| W1:157.7 | in its ways, a little nearer its deliverance. And you who bring it | light will come to see the light more sure, the vision more distinct. |
| W1:157.7 | its deliverance. And you who bring it light will come to see the | light more sure, the vision more distinct. |
| W1:158.7 | a body and mistake it for the Son whom God created. It beholds a | light beyond the body, an idea beyond what can be touched, a purity |
| W1:158.7 | all happenings, and all events without the slightest fading of the | light it sees. |
| W1:158.10 | but see yourself. If he be lost in sin, so must you be; if you see | light in him, your sins have been forgiven by yourself. Each brother |
| W1:159.5 | faintly seen, at times forgot, and never able to obscure the | light that shines beyond them. Holiness has been restored to vision, |
| W1:159.7 | was made. For here it is repaired, made new again but in a different | light. What was to be the home of sin becomes the center of |
| W1:159.8 | can never grow in its unnourishing and shallow soil. They need the | light and warmth and kindly care Christ's charity provides. They need |
| W1:162.6 | you. These words dispel the night, and darkness is no more. The | light is come today to bless the world, for you have recognized the |
| W1:164.6 | far beyond all things within the world, looks back on them in a new | light. And what you see becomes the healing and salvation of the |
| W1:164.8 | We bless the world as we behold it in the | light in which our Savior looks on us and offer it the freedom given |
| W1:167.12 | is no more a mere reflection. It becomes the thing reflected and the | light which makes reflection possible. No vision now is needed. For |
| W1:168.4 | come with knowledge but an instant later. For in grace you see a | light that covers all the world in love and watch fear disappear from |
| W1:168.4 | watch fear disappear from every face as hearts rise up and claim the | light as theirs. What now remains that Heaven be delayed an instant |
| W1:169.11 | you receive through grace in your experience to all who see the | light that lingers on your face. |
| W1:R5.7 | is promised us, and that this course was sent to open up the path of | light to us, and teach us, step by step, how to return to the eternal |
| W1:R5.9 | misery and pain. I am reborn each time a brother's mind turns to the | light in him and looks for me. I have forgotten no one. Help me now |
| W1:182.4 | lights up Heaven and that brings to earth the pure reflection of the | light above, wherein are earth and Heaven joined as one. |
| W1:188.1 | Why wait for Heaven? Those who seek the | light are merely covering their eyes. The light is in them now. |
| W1:188.1 | Heaven? Those who seek the light are merely covering their eyes. The | light is in them now. Enlightenment is but a recognition, not a |
| W1:188.1 | them now. Enlightenment is but a recognition, not a change at all. | Light is not of the world, yet you who bear the light in you are |
| W1:188.1 | not a change at all. Light is not of the world, yet you who bear the | light in you are alien here as well. The light came with you from |
| W1:188.1 | world, yet you who bear the light in you are alien here as well. The | light came with you from your native home and stayed with you because |
| W1:188.2 | This | light cannot be lost. Why wait to find it in the future or believe it |
| W1:188.4 | the gift, does God Himself give thanks. And in His blessing does the | light in you shine brighter, adding to the gifts you have to offer to |
| W1:188.6 | Sit quietly and close your eyes. The | light within you is sufficient. It alone has power to give the gift |
| W1:188.8 | We practice coming nearer to the | light in us today. We take our wandering thoughts and gently bring |
| W1:188.8 | thoughts we share with God. We will not let them stray. We let the | light within our minds direct them to come home. We have betrayed |
| W1:188.10 | things shine upon me in that peace, and let me bless them with the | light in me. |
| W1:189.1 | There is a | light in you the world cannot perceive. And with its eyes you will |
| W1:189.1 | the world cannot perceive. And with its eyes you will not see this | light, for you are blinded by the world. Yet you have eyes to see it. |
| W1:189.1 | It was not placed in you to be kept hidden from your sight. This | light is a reflection of the thought we practice now. To feel the |
| W1:189.2 | of your holy sleep. It sees salvation in you and protects the | light in you in which it sees its own. It offers you its flowers and |
| W1:189.3 | which forgiveness shines on everything and peace offers its gentle | light to everyone is inconceivable to those who see a world of |
| W1:190.11 | in place of sin, the peace of God instead of conflict, and the | light of Heaven for the darkness of the world. |
| W1:191.12 | more and dream of death. Then join with me today. Your glory is the | light that saves the world. Do not withhold salvation longer. Look |
| W1:192.3 | What He makes are dreams, but of a kind so close to waking that the | light of day already shines in them. And eyes already opening behold |
| W1:192.7 | we need forgiveness to perceive that this is so. Without its kindly | light we grope in darkness, using reason but to justify our rage and |
| W1:192.7 | dreams and fearful thoughts, our eyes shut tight against the | light, our minds engaged in worshipping what is not there. |
| W1:193.2 | by which perception is made true and beautiful enough to let the | light of Heaven shine upon it. It is He Who answers what His Son |
| W1:194.5 | which was slave to time, transformed into a holy instant when the | light that was kept hidden in God's Son is freed to bless the world. |
| W1:196.3 | are a body to be crucified. And you will see within today's idea the | light of resurrection, looking past all thoughts of crucifixion and |
| W1:197.8 | your Self. And you are still as God created you. Nor can you dim the | light of your perfection. In your heart, the Heart of God is laid. He |
| W1:198.9 | bestows these words upon your mind that you may find the key to | light and let the darkness end: |
| W1:198.13 | a frantic rush of thoughts that made no sense. Now is there tranquil | light across the face of earth, made quiet in a dreamless sleep. And |
| W2:224.1 | beneficent and free from guilt that Heaven looks to it to give it | light. It lights the world as well. It is the gift my Father gave me, |
| W2:225.1 | full awareness, blazing in my mind, and keeping it within its kindly | light, inviolate—beloved, with fear behind and only peace ahead. |
| W2:WS.4 | in new perception. Night has gone, and we have come together in the | light. |
| W2:237.1 | accept the truth about myself. I will arise in glory and allow the | light in me to shine upon the world throughout the day. I bring the |
| W2:239.2 | We thank You, Father, for the | light that shines forever in us. And we honor it because You share it |
| W2:239.2 | we honor it because You share it with us. We are one, united in this | light, and one with You, at peace with all creation and ourselves. |
| W2:WIW.1 | to one of true forgiveness will the world be seen in quite another | light, and one which leads to truth, where all the world must |
| W2:WIW.4 | by the One Whom God appointed Savior to the world. Follow His | light and see the world as He beholds it. Hear His Voice alone in all |

| W1:92.2 | at this insane idea. It is as if you thought you held the match that | lights the sun and gives it all its warmth or that you had the |
| W1:129.9 | eyes upon the world you see, and in the silent darkness watch the | lights that are not of this world light one by one until where one |

| Tx:7.2 | extend outward. God's accomplishments are not yours. But yours are | like His. He created the Sonship, and you increase it. You have the |
| Tx:7.4 | always willing to make a “deal,” but it cannot understand that to be | like another means that no deals are possible. To gain you must give, |
| Tx:7.4 | giving, and this is not God's Will. To will with God is to create | like Him. God does not limit His gifts in any way. You are His gifts, |

| Tx:8.45 | what is real except the creations of God and those which are created | like His? Your creations love you as your Soul loves your Father for |
| Tx:8.48 | by thought. God does not contradict Himself, and His Sons, who are | like Him, cannot contradict themselves or Him. Yet their thought is |
| Tx:8.98 | that punishment is inevitable, attempts to teach himself to | like it. The truth is, very simply, that no one wants either |

| Tx:10.8 | Who placed no limits on His creation nor upon those who create | like Him. You do not know this simply because you have tried to limit |
| Tx:10.9 | not childless. Because He did not will to be alone, He created a Son | like Himself. Do not deny Him His Son, for your unwillingness to |
| Tx:10.11 | heritage because His one gift is Himself. How can you give except | like Him if you would know His gift to you? Give, then, without limit |
| Tx:10.13 | will death for himself because His Father is Life and His Son is | like Him. Creation is your will because it is His. |
| Tx:10.15 | Will of your Father is to know your own. For it is your will to be | like Him, Whose Will it is that it be so. God's Will is that His Son |
| Tx:10.20 | but only because your care is a sign that you want Him. Think | like Him ever so slightly, and the little spark becomes a blazing |
| Tx:10.21 | your will and your Father's be wholly joined. To have Him is to be | like Him, and He has given Himself to you. You who have God must be |
| Tx:10.25 | and into the Presence of God. I cannot tell you what this will be | like, for your hearts are not ready. Yet I can tell you and remind |
| Tx:10.27 | all darkness forever. For your Father is your Creator, and you are | like Him. |
| Tx:10.68 | a part in the redemption as valuable as mine. For your part must be | like mine if you learn it of me. If you believe that yours is |

| Tx:10.70 | they are eternal because they are loving. And being loving, they are | like the Father and therefore cannot die. The real world can actually |
| Tx:10.71 | unlike Him. Yet everything in what you have made that is true is | like Him. Only this is the real world, and perceiving only this will |
| Tx:11.41 | parts of the Sonship, for God is whole, and all His extensions are | like Him. |
| Tx:11.91 | to go in one direction, but when you reach its end, it will roll up | like a long carpet which has spread along the past behind you and |
| Tx:12.10 | Yet in your disordered state, you are not afraid of fear. You do not | like it, but it is not your desire to attack which really frightens |
| Tx:12.18 | you see it in your brothers, for though they may deceive themselves, | like you they long for the grandeur that is in them. And perceiving |
| Tx:12.26 | on guilt enables it to ensure its continuity by making the future | like the past and thus avoiding the present. By the notion of paying |
| Tx:12.31 | of time as one of extending itself in place of eternity, for | like the Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of time as its own. |
| Tx:12.59 | The real world is not | like this. It has no buildings, and there are no streets where people |
| Tx:12.75 | all the world has offered but to take away. And we will spread it | like a veil of light across the world's sad face, in which we hide |
| Tx:13.11 | if you would free yourselves. Atonement stands between them | like a lamp that shines so brightly that the chain of darkness in |
| Tx:13.13 | and if you place your faith in the past, the future will be | like it. Whatever you hold as dear, you think is yours. The power of |
| Tx:13.28 | can keep from you what Christ would have you see. His Will is | like His Father's, and He offers mercy to every Child of God, as He |
| Tx:13.30 | you recognize that this is true, you will have no idea what love is | like. No one who condemns a brother can see himself as guiltless in |
| Tx:13.33 | Like you my faith and my belief are centered on what I treasure. The | |
| Tx:13.59 | Like you, the Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like God, He knows it | |
| Tx:13.59 | Like you, the Holy Spirit did not make truth. | Like God, He knows it to be true. He brings the light of truth into |
| Tx:13.62 | may join Him in the holy task of bringing light to darkness. For, | like your brothers, you do not realize the light has come and freed |
| Tx:13.87 | You who belong to the First Cause, created by Him | like unto Himself and part of Him, are more than merely guiltless. |
| Tx:14.4 | incapable of understanding one another. Each perceives the other as | like himself, making them unable to communicate because each sees the |
| Tx:14.29 | Defenses, | like everything you made, must be gently turned to your own good, |
| Tx:14.37 | which the Father joins Himself to those He gives the power to create | like Him can never be dissolved. Heaven itself is union with all of |
| Tx:14.71 | as one in God, so do we learn as one in Him. God's Teacher is as | like to His Creator as is His Son, and through His Teacher does God |
| Tx:14.71 | miracle of oneness, and before His lesson division disappears. Teach | like Him here, and you will remember that you have always created |
| Tx:14.71 | like Him here, and you will remember that you have always created | like your Father. The miracle of creation has never ceased, having |
| Tx:15.2 | ego, which uses time to support its belief in destruction. The ego, | like the Holy Spirit, uses time to convince you of the inevitability |
| Tx:15.28 | The power and the glory that lie in you from God are for all who, | like you, perceive themselves as little and have deceived themselves |
| Tx:15.50 | had seen yourself as without love, you could not have judged them so | like you in lack. |
| Tx:15.52 | the values from the past, you would see them all the same and | like yourself. Nor would you see any separation between yourself and |
| Tx:15.59 | by sharing. What you find difficult to accept is the fact that, | like your Father, you are an idea. And like Him, you can give |
| Tx:15.59 | to accept is the fact that, like your Father, you are an idea. And | like Him, you can give yourself completely, wholly without loss, and |
| Tx:15.82 | all its parts are joined in God through Christ, where they become | like to their Father. For Christ knows of no separation from His |
| Tx:15.95 | perception that is necessary, for you made but one mistake. It seems | like many, but it is all the same. For though the ego takes many |
| Tx:16.2 | it sees itself and would increase itself by sharing what is | like itself.] Make no mistake about this maneuver; the ego always |
| Tx:16.20 | seen and heard and recognize it. Can you be alone with witnesses | like these? |
| Tx:16.38 | be wholly in God, willing for nothing special but only to be wholly | like unto Him, completing Him by your completion. Fear not to cross |
| Tx:17.7 | or waking, comes near to such loveliness. And nothing will you value | like unto this nor hold so dear. Nothing that you remember that made |
| Tx:17.16 | as holiness does, by gathering to itself what it perceives as | like itself. |
| Tx:17.20 | forgotten, what remains is eternal. And the transformed past is made | like the present. No longer does the past conflict with now. This |
| Tx:17.34 | with gilded threads of self-destruction. The glitter of blood shines | like rubies, and the tears are faceted like diamonds and gleam in the |
| Tx:17.34 | The glitter of blood shines like rubies, and the tears are faceted | like diamonds and gleam in the dim light in which the offering is |
| Tx:17.43 | is the expression of the holy instant in living in this world. | Like everything about salvation, the holy instant is a practical |
| Tx:18.7 | touched with insanity and swirling lightly off on a mad course | like feathers dancing insanely in the wind, have no substance. They |
| Tx:18.57 | of reality, only some of which were love. Yet love must be forever | like itself, changeless forever and forever without alternative. And |
| Tx:18.73 | you but appreciate the whole, you would see instantly that it is | like the smallest sunbeam to the sun or like the faintest ripple on |
| Tx:18.73 | see instantly that it is like the smallest sunbeam to the sun or | like the faintest ripple on the surface of the ocean. In its amazing |
| Tx:18.76 | Like to the sun and ocean your Self continues, unmindful that this | |
| Tx:18.78 | Love knows no bodies and reaches to everything created | like itself. Its total lack of limit is its meaning. It is completely |
| Tx:18.90 | This heavy-seeming barrier, this artificial floor which looks | like rock, is like a bank of low dark clouds that seems to be a solid |
| Tx:18.90 | barrier, this artificial floor which looks like rock, is | like a bank of low dark clouds that seems to be a solid wall before |
| Tx:19.11 | of everyone as a Son of your most loving Father, loved by Him | like you and therefore loved by you as yourself. It is His love that |
| Tx:19.24 | correctable, and so easily escaped from that its whole correction is | like walking through a mist into the sun? For that is all it is. |
| Tx:19.29 | Time is | like a downward spiral which seems to travel down from a long, |
| Tx:19.73 | it has no feeling. It transmits to you the feelings that you want. | Like any communication medium, the body receives and sends the |
| Tx:19.76 | receiving from the Father and offering His messages unto the Son. | Like the ego, the Holy Spirit is both the sender and the receiver. |
| Tx:19.91 | The fourth obstacle to be surmounted hangs | like a heavy veil before the face of Christ. Yet as His face rises |
| Tx:19.91 | For this dark veil, which seems to make the face of Christ Himself | like to a leper's and the bright rays of His Father's love which |
| Tx:19.105 | toss it lightly and with happy laughter away from him. Press it not | like thorns against his brow, nor nail him to it unredeemed and |
| Tx:20.19 | A simple question yet remains and needs an answer. Do you | like what you have made—a world of murder and attack through which |
| Tx:20.20 | Have you not wondered what the world is really | like; how it would look through happy eyes? The world you see is but |
| Tx:20.21 | holy see is one with them, just as the world the ego looks upon is | like itself. The world the holy see is beautiful because they see |
| Tx:20.41 | is but one. The little breath of eternity that runs through time | like golden light is all the same—nothing before it, nothing |
| Tx:20.43 | Can you evaluate the giver of a gift | like this? Would you exchange this gift for any other? This gift |
| Tx:20.57 | You have a real relationship, and it has meaning. It is as | like your real relationship with God as equal things are like unto |
| Tx:20.57 | It is as like your real relationship with God as equal things are | like unto each other. Idolatry is past and meaningless. Perhaps you |
| Tx:20.62 | see the body, you have chosen judgment and not vision. For vision, | like relationships, has no order. You either see or not. |
| Tx:21.3 | world the sightless “see” must be imagined, for what it really looks | like is unknown to them. They must infer what could be seen from |
| Tx:21.4 | instead. It is not necessary to imagine what the world must look | like. It must be seen before you recognize it for what it is. You can |
| Tx:21.8 | quite forgotten; dim, perhaps, and yet not altogether unfamiliar, | like a song whose name is long forgotten, and the circumstances in |
| Tx:21.27 | The Son's creations are | like his Father's. Yet in creating them, the Son does not delude |
| Tx:21.39 | are opposites and cannot meaningfully join in any way. It is | like saying that the moon and sun are one because they come with |
| Tx:21.52 | it, but if the basic question stems from reason, it will not ask it. | Like all that stems from reason, the basic question is obvious, |
| Tx:21.60 | thoughts? And how could thoughts that enter into what but seems | like yours alone have no effect at all on what is yours? If minds are |
| Tx:21.65 | Reason, | like love, would reassure you and seeks not to frighten you. The |
| Tx:21.67 | This gracious plan was given love by Love. And what Love plans is | like Itself in this: being united, It would have you learn what you |
| Tx:21.72 | into a poisoned spear, a child becomes a giant, and a mouse roars | like a lion. And love is turned to hate as easily. This is no army, |
| Tx:21.87 | same. It sees not the ephemeral, for it desires that everything be | like itself and sees it so. Nothing has power to confound its |
| Tx:22.3 | has Heaven's holiness. How far from home can a relationship so | like to Heaven be? |
| Tx:22.10 | do not understand it yet, only because your whole communication is | like a baby's. The sounds a baby makes and what he hears are highly |
| Tx:22.11 | and yet more ancient than the old illusion that it has replaced, is | like a baby now in its rebirth. Yet in this infant is your vision |
| Tx:22.15 | Christ comes to what is | like Himself; the same, not different. For He is always drawn unto |
| Tx:22.15 | same, not different. For He is always drawn unto Himself. What is as | like Him as a holy relationship? And what draws you together draws |
| Tx:22.20 | as what will make it true or false. This must be so if the idea is | like its source. Therefore, says reason, if escape from guilt was |
| Tx:22.31 | of mind in which salvation can be given you. Sin is a block, set | like a heavy gate, locked and without a key, across the road to |
| Tx:22.49 | and firmness of foundation. Yes, to the body's eyes it looks | like an enormous solid body, immovable as is a mountain. Yet within |
| Tx:22.64 | itself. There is no difference anywhere in it, for every thought is | like itself. |
| Tx:23.20 | The first chaotic law is that the truth is different for everyone. | Like all these principles, this one maintains that each is separate |
| Tx:23.34 | And yet, how can it be that laws | like these can be believed? There is a strange device that makes it |
| Tx:23.37 | In any state apart from Heaven, life is illusion. At best, it seems | like life; at worst, like death. Yet both are judgments on what is |
| Tx:23.37 | Heaven, life is illusion. At best, it seems like life; at worst, | like death. Yet both are judgments on what is not life, equal in |
| Tx:23.48 | be to those who see God's Son a body. For it is not the body that is | like the Son's Creator. And what is lifeless cannot be the Son of |
| Tx:23.49 | the Son are murderers or neither is. Life makes not death, creating | like itself. |
| Tx:23.50 | The lovely light of your relationship is | like the love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy function God gave |
| Tx:24.6 | and this must come from someone “better,” someone incapable of being | like what he condemns, “above” it, sinless by comparison with it. And |
| Tx:24.8 | Would it be possible for you to hate your brother if you were | like him? Could you attack him if you realized you journey with him |
| Tx:24.8 | hurt you? Your brother is your friend because his Father created him | like you. There is no difference. You have been given to each other |
| Tx:24.14 | the “creator” who creates unlike the Father and which made His Son | like to itself and not like unto Him. His “special” sons are many, |
| Tx:24.14 | unlike the Father and which made His Son like to itself and not | like unto Him. His “special” sons are many, never one, each one in |
| Tx:24.17 | The shining radiance of the Son of God—so | like his Father that the memory of Him springs instantly to mind. And |
| Tx:24.17 | mind. And with this memory, the Son remembers his own creations, as | like to him as he is to his Father. And all the world he made and all |
| Tx:24.21 | this you fear, for if He is not special, then He willed His Son be | like Him, and your brother is like you. Not special, but possessed of |
| Tx:24.21 | not special, then He willed His Son be like Him, and your brother is | like you. Not special, but possessed of everything including you. |
| Tx:24.28 | open to attack that just a word, a little whisper that you do not | like, a circumstance that suits you not, or an event that you did not |
| Tx:24.29 | is it possible the two can ever be the same while specialness stands | like a flaming sword of death between them and makes them “enemies.” |
| Tx:24.30 | God asks for your forgiveness. He would have no separation, | like an alien will, rise between what He wills for you and what you |
| Tx:24.43 | already loosened from the bone and sightless holes for eyes, is | like yourself? |
| Tx:24.45 | whose hand you hold and whom you lead to Him. And what you see is | like yourself. For what but Christ is there to see and hear and love |
| Tx:24.47 | a brother unto you except he be as perfect as yourself and just as | like to Him in holiness as you must be? |
| Tx:24.68 | with the Father must have a Son. Yet must this Son have been created | like Himself. A perfect being, all-encompassing and all-encompassed, |
| Tx:24.71 | the means to serve his “father's” purpose. Not identical, not even | like, but still a means to offer to the “father” what he wants. Such |
| Tx:24.72 | They have a different purpose. It is this that joins them to their | like and separates each from all aspects with a different purpose. |
| Tx:25.38 | enemy and God along with Him. Must you not be afraid with “enemies” | like these? And must you not be fearful of yourself? For you have |
| Tx:25.69 | what escape has He for them except a door to hell that seems to look | like Heaven's gate? |
| Tx:26.24 | Is not this | like your special function, where the separation is undone by change |
| Tx:26.40 | Voices from the past are heard and then are doubted. You are | like to one who still hallucinates but lacks conviction in what he |
| Tx:26.72 | caused and judged disastrous now? Belief in sin arouses fear and, | like its cause, is looking forward, looking back but overlooking what |
| Tx:26.79 | you stand on ground so holy Heaven leans to join with it and make it | like itself. The shadow of an ancient hate has gone, and all the |
| Tx:27.56 | cannot choose among them which are real, for any one you choose is | like the rest. This name or that, but nothing more, you choose. You |
| Tx:27.62 | Here is the world's demented version of salvation clearly shown. | Like to a dream of punishment in which the dreamer is unconscious of |
| Tx:27.77 | while and dies, to be united in the dust with other bodies dying | like itself. In the brief time allotted it to live, it seeks for |
| Tx:27.89 | then, all forms of suffering to Him Who knows that every one is | like the rest. He sees no differences where none exist, and He will |
| Tx:28.2 | as if it were occurring now and still were there to see. Memory, | like perception, is a skill made up by you to take the place of what |
| Tx:28.2 | up by you to take the place of what God gave in your creation. And | like all the things you made, it can be used to serve another purpose |
| Tx:28.5 | it to do. It does not write the message nor appoint what it is for. | Like to the body, it is purposeless within itself. And if it seems to |
| Tx:28.18 | with effects unlike yourself. And as their “father,” you must be | like them. Nothing at all has happened but that you have put yourself |
| Tx:28.19 | Do you wish for dreams of healing or for dreams of death? A dream is | like a memory in that it pictures what you wanted shown to you. An |
| Tx:28.19 | be realized that it is you who dreamed the dreaming that you do not | like. It is but an effect which you have caused, and you would not be |
| Tx:28.25 | Like every lesson which the Holy Spirit requests you learn, the | |
| Tx:28.34 | the shining of a pebble and who stored a heap of snow that shone | like silver. They have nothing left behind the open door. What is the |
| Tx:28.39 | Like you, your brother thinks he is a dream. Share not in his | |
| Tx:28.55 | sight a thing that cannot see and blame it for the sounds you do not | like, although it cannot hear. It suffers not the punishment you give |
| Tx:28.60 | God asks for nothing, and His Son, | like Him, need ask for nothing. For there is no lack in him. An empty |
| Tx:28.62 | count on it as shelter from the wind? The body can be made a home | like this because it lacks foundation in the truth. And yet, because |
| Tx:28.64 | to be true to faithlessness. Yet faithlessness is sickness. It is | like the house set upon straw. It seems to be quite solid and |
| Tx:29.26 | The dreams you think you | like would hold you back as much as those in which the fear is seen. |
| Tx:29.28 | the “reason” your attack is justified? The dreams you think you | like are those in which the functions you have given have been |
| Tx:29.28 | represent and should achieve for you. If it succeeds, you think you | like the dream. If it should fail, you think the dream is sad. But |
| Tx:29.33 | This sacred Son of God is | like yourself—the mirror of his Father's love for you, the soft |
| Tx:29.48 | the world the past has given it. For otherwise, the future will be | like the past and but a series of depressing dreams in which all |
| Tx:29.54 | All forms of anti-Christ oppose the Christ and fall before His face | like a dark veil which seems to shut you off from Him, alone in |
| Tx:30.2 | tell yourself there is a way in which this very day can happen just | like that. Then try again to have the day you want. |
| Tx:30.16 | At least I can decide I do not | like what I feel now. |
| Tx:30.18 | 5. Having decided that you do not | like the way you feel, what could be easier than to continue with, |
| Tx:30.20 | but is something that you want and that you need, because you do not | like the way you feel. This tiny opening will be enough to let you go |
| Tx:30.40 | And by finding this, you will achieve completion in a form you | like. This is the purpose of an idol—that you will not look beyond |
| Tx:30.45 | wait for welcome and remembering. The Thought God holds of you is | like a star, unchangeable in an eternal sky. So high in Heaven is it |
| Tx:30.53 | at all? What could it be but an illusion, making things appear | like to itself? Look calmly at its toys and understand that they are |
| Tx:30.91 | nor can a miracle be given you to heal appearances you do not | like. You have established limits. What you ask is given you, but not |
| Tx:30.93 | to you. And when He has appeared to you, you will be certain you are | like Him, for He is the changeless in your brother and in you. |
| Tx:31.3 | have taught yourselves have been so overlearned and fixed they rise | like heavy curtains to obscure the simple and the obvious. Say not |
| Tx:31.20 | leads nor follows us but walks beside us on the selfsame road. He is | like us, as near or far away from what we want as we will let him be. |
| Tx:31.24 | And as a brother, must his Father be the same as yours, as he is | like yourself. |
| Tx:31.30 | preserved, for here guilt rules and orders that the world be | like itself—a place where nothing can find mercy or survive the |
| Tx:31.35 | in number, but the time must come when everyone begins to see how | like they are to one another. Men have died on seeing this because |
| Tx:31.74 | The concept of the self stands | like a shield, a silent barricade before the truth, and hides it from |
| Tx:31.88 | disappears before His holy sight. The saviors of the world who see | like Him are merely those who chose His strength instead of their own |
| Tx:31.94 | hates be gone. And all the loveliness which they concealed appear | like lawns of Heaven to our sight to lift us high above the thorny |
| W1:1.5 | be sure that nothing you see is specifically excluded. One thing is | like another as far as the application of the idea is concerned. |
| W1:3.2 | the idea for the day is to be applied. For this purpose one thing is | like another—equally suitable and therefore equally useful. |
| W1:4.4 | This thought about _____ does not mean anything. It is | like the things I see in this room [or wherever you are]. |
| W1:5.1 | This idea, | like the preceding one, can be used with any person, situation, or |
| W1:7.5 | the reason why your thoughts do not mean anything and why they are | like the things you see. |
| W1:24.5 | and enumerate carefully as many goals as possible that you would | like to be met in its resolution. The form of each application should |

| W1:30.2 | of projection. We are not attempting to get rid of what we do not | like by seeing it outside. Instead, we are trying to see in the world |
| W1:32.2 | The idea for today, | like the preceding ones, applies to your inner and outer worlds, |
| W1:38.6 | this procedure and add some relevant thoughts of your own. You might | like, for example, to include thoughts such as: |
| W1:39.1 | If guilt is hell, what is its opposite? | Like the text for which this workbook was written, the ideas which |
| W1:43.9 | The world can show me myself. I see my own thoughts, which are | like God's. |
| W1:45.7 | My real thoughts are in my mind. I would | like to find them. |
| W1:46.4 | you have not forgiven. It is a safe rule that anyone you do not | like is a suitable subject. Mention each one by name and say: |
| W1:50.4 | to help you recognize its truth, and allow peace to flow over you | like a blanket of protection and surety. Let no idle and foolish |
| W1:60.4 | world will look to me when I can see it! It will not look anything | like what I imagine I see now. Everyone and everything I see will |
| W1:67.5 | about yourself to the truth in you. If Love created you | like Itself, this Self must be in you. And somewhere in your mind, It |
| W1:67.7 | it would be most beneficial to remind yourself that Love created you | like Itself. Hear the truth about yourself in this. |
| W1:67.8 | with the simple truth about the Son of God. You were created by Love | like Itself. |
| W1:68.1 | You who were created by Love | like Itself can hold no grievances and know your Self. To hold a |
| W1:68.2 | your Source and make you unlike Him. It makes you believe that He is | like what you think you have become, for no one can conceive of his |
| W1:68.4 | God in their own image as it is certain that God created them | like Himself and defined them as part of Him. It is as sure that |
| W1:68.6 | think of the seemingly minor grievances you hold against those you | like and even think you love. It will quickly become apparent that |
| W1:72.3 | with something a body does? A person says something we do not | like; he does something that displeases us, he “betrays” his hostile |
| W1:72.15 | are asking them of the infinite Creator of infinity, Who created you | like Himself: |
| W1:75.7 | now as if you never saw it before. You do not know yet what it looks | like. You merely wait to have it shown to you. While you wait, repeat |
| W1:78.1 | make is one between a grievance and a miracle. Each grievance stands | like a dark shield of hate before the miracle it would conceal. And |
| W1:84.2 | [67] Love created me | like Itself. I am in the likeness of my Creator. I cannot suffer, I |
| W1:84.2 | replace my Self. I am in the likeness of my Creator. Love created me | like Itself. |
| W1:91.3 | To be told that what you do not see is there sounds | like insanity. It is very difficult to become convinced that it is |
| W1:91.13 | united with you in this practice period in which you share a purpose | like Their own. Theirs is the light in which you will see miracles |
| W1:92.5 | darkness of its maker. It is sick and looks on sickness, which is | like itself. |
| W1:96.6 | in the body's frail support. Now must it reconcile unlike with | like, for this is what it thinks that it is for. |
| W1:102.2 | And everything you think it offers you is lacking in existence | like itself. You have been slave to nothing. Be you free today to |
| W1:105.1 | to understand these gifts increase as we receive them. They are not | like to the gifts the world can give, in which the giver loses as he |
| W1:107.2 | you were loved and safe. Then try to picture what it would be | like to have that moment be extended to the end of time and to |
| W1:107.10 | gave the gift of life to Him as well. He is your brother and so | like to you your Father knows that you are both the same. It is your |
| W1:112.3 | me. I will remain forever as I was, Created by the Changeless | like Himself. And I am one with Him, and He with me. |
| W1:121.10 | Begin the longer practice periods by thinking of someone you do not | like, who seems to irritate you or to cause regret in you if you |
| W1:122.5 | remains exactly as He planned it. Changelessly it stands before you, | like an open door with warmth and welcome calling from beyond the |
| W1:124.9 | mind. This half an hour will be framed in gold, with every minute | like a diamond set around the mirror that this exercise will offer |
| W1:127.1 | no kinds nor levels, no divergencies and no distinctions. It is | like itself, unchanged throughout. It never alters with a person or a |
| W1:127.9 | what you learn. Let us give thanks today that we are spared a future | like the past. Today we leave the past behind us, never more to be |
| W1:131.10 | while Heaven is the place he cannot find. Leave foolish thoughts | like these behind today, and turn your mind to true ideas instead. |
| W1:132.12 | and love. Are these inherent in the world you see? Does it create | like Him? Unless it does, it is not real and cannot be at all. If you |
| W1:134.4 | believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is forgiveness really but a sin, | like all the rest. It says the truth is false and smiles on the |
| W1:136.2 | Sickness is not an accident. | Like all defenses, it is an insane device for self-deception. And |
| W1:136.2 | Like all defenses, it is an insane device for self-deception. And | like all the rest, its purpose is to hide reality, attack it, change |
| W1:137.13 | God. Is not a minute of the hour worth the giving to receive a gift | like this? Is not a little time a small expense to offer for the gift |
| W1:138.10 | imagined source of guilt and pain? Who hesitates to make a choice | like this? And shall we hesitate to choose today? |
| W1:139.12 | We have not lost the knowledge that God gave to us when He created us | like Him. We can remember it for everyone, for in creation are all |
| W1:152.6 | seem to have reality. He is not mad. Yet only madness makes a world | like this. |
| W1:152.10 | in true humility instead to Him Who has created us immaculate, | like to Himself in power and in love. The power of decision is our |
| W1:154.6 | them further and to give them everywhere that they were meant to be. | Like earthly messengers, they did not write the messages they bear, |
| W1:155.1 | perceived the way will recognize you also and believe that you are | like them as you were before. |
| W1:157.6 | experience this day to light the world. We cannot give experience | like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in our eyes which we can |
| W1:157.7 | return becomes a little closer to the end of time, a little more | like Heaven in its ways, a little nearer its deliverance. And you who |
| W1:159.3 | obscure. Christ's vision pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so | like to Heaven that what God created perfect can be mirrored there. |
| W1:159.9 | but carry its beneficence with them and turn the world into a garden | like the one they came from and to which they go again with added |
| W1:160.5 | said, “I am the stranger here. And so I leave my home to one more | like me than myself and give him all I thought belonged to me.” Now |

| Tx:14.1 | in the very mind where God Himself has placed it. If you would but | listen and learn how impossible this is! Do not endow Him with |
| Tx:14.5 | There is nothing of value here and everything of value there. | Listen to the Holy Spirit and to God through Him. He speaks of you to |
| Tx:14.71 | and through His Teacher does God proclaim His Oneness and His Son's. | Listen in silence, and do not raise your voice against Him. For He |
| Tx:16.16 | and you have heard. Never again will you be wholly willing not to | listen. |
| Tx:16.57 | escape from all its consequences. The decision whether or not to | listen to this course and follow it is but the choice between truth |
| Tx:20.10 | idle gift, no plaything to be tossed about a while and laid aside. | Listen and hear this carefully, nor think it but a dream—a careless |

| Tx:21.8 | Listen—perhaps you catch a hint of an ancient state not quite | |
| Tx:21.9 | know that nothing in the world you learned is half so dear as this. | Listen and see if you remember an ancient song you knew so long ago |
| Tx:21.50 | But your awareness of it needs your help because it is your choice. | Listen to what the ego says and see what it directs you see, and it |
| Tx:21.62 | quietly, replacing madness if it be the will of the insane to | listen to it. But the insane know not their will. For they believe |
| Tx:21.66 | Reason assures you Heaven is what you want, and all you want. | Listen to Him Who speaks with reason and brings your reason into line |
| Tx:22.7 | it to explain to you the world it sees, you have no reason not to | listen nor to suspect that what it tells you is not true. Reason |
| Tx:24.15 | Spirit gives can reach you, when it is your specialness to which you | listen and which asks and answers? Its tiny answer, soundless in the |
| Tx:24.15 | God to you eternally in loving praise of what you are, is all you | listen to. And that vast song of honor and of love for what you are |
| Tx:24.44 | Rejoice you have no eyes with which to see, no ears to | listen, and no hands to hold nor feet to guide. Be glad that only |

| Tx:27.89 | it secret from you. Yet you need but learn you choose but not to | listen, not to see. How differently will you perceive the world when |
| Tx:31.11 | disunity and pain. Hear not the call for this within yourself. But | listen, rather, to the deeper call beyond it that appeals for peace |
| Tx:31.17 | voice you hear in him is but your own. What does he ask you for? And | listen well! For he is asking what will come to you because you see |
| Tx:31.21 | appearances and answer to the Christ Who calls to you. Be still and | listen. Think not ancient thoughts. Forget the dismal lessons that |
| Tx:31.22 | made. Nothing will hurt you in this holy place to which you come to | listen silently and learn the truth of what you really want. No more |
| Tx:31.82 | own. Can you to whom God says, “Release My Son!” be tempted not to | listen when you learn that it is you for whom He asks release? And |
| Tx:31.93 | in him. My brothers in salvation, do not fail to hear my voice and | listen to my words. I ask for nothing but your own release. There is |
| W1:49.1 | It is quite possible to | listen to God's Voice all through the day without interrupting your |

| W1:60.6 | [50] I am sustained by the Love of God. As I | listen to God's Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I open my eyes, |
| W1:66.12 | the ego is the only alternative to the Holy Spirit's Voice. You will | listen to madness or hear the truth. Try to make this choice as you |

| W1:106.2 | of life and offer it to you for your belief. Attend them not, but | listen to the truth. |
| W1:106.3 | their meaningless persuasion. Hear them not. Be still today, and | listen to the truth. Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who |

| Tx:9.43 | as insane. With the grandeur of God in you, you have chosen to be | little and to lament your littleness. Within the system which |

| Tx:9.92 | heal, but knowing the light will create. Yet in the returning, the | little light must be acknowledged first, for the separation was a |
| Tx:10.3 | system, the darker and more obscure becomes the way. Yet even the | little spark in your mind is enough to lighten it. Bring this light |
| Tx:10.20 | a sign that you want Him. Think like Him ever so slightly, and the | little spark becomes a blazing light that fills your mind so that He |
| Tx:10.21 | God sent you will teach you how to do this if you but recognize the | little spark and are willing to let it grow. Your willingness need |
| Tx:10.21 | need not be perfect, because His is. If you will merely offer Him a | little place, He will lighten it so much that you will gladly extend |
| Tx:10.25 | name, for your joy could no more be contained than His. The bleak | little world will vanish into nothingness, and your heart will be so |
| Tx:10.27 | the dark way, are all illusions. Turn toward the light, for the | little spark in you is part of a light so great that it can sweep you |
| Tx:10.61 | interpret for you, and do not try to limit what you see by narrow | little beliefs which are unworthy of God's Son. For until Christ |
| Tx:10.75 | of all perception to knowledge. The Bible tells you to become as | little children. Little children recognize that they do not |
| Tx:10.75 | to knowledge. The Bible tells you to become as little children. | Little children recognize that they do not understand what they |
| Tx:10.82 | to ask for guidance of the Holy Spirit is to ask for deprivation. | Little Children of God, you do not understand your Father. You |
| Tx:11.17 | Remember what we said about the frightening perceptions of | little children which terrify them because they do not understand |
| Tx:11.17 | know what his perceptions mean. Yet you believe that you do know. | Little children, you are hiding your heads under the covers of the |
| Tx:11.20 | A | little while and you will see me, for I am not hidden because you are |
| Tx:11.21 | not fail in your mission because I failed not in mine. Give me but a | little trust in the name of the complete trust I have in you, and we |
| Tx:12.9 | Little children, this is not so. Your “guilty secret” is nothing, and | |
| Tx:12.14 | You are afraid it would sweep you away from yourself and make you | little. For you believe that magnitude lies in defiance and that |
| Tx:12.17 | any thoughts which you may fear to uncover. For He will heal every | little thought which you have kept to hurt you and cleanse it of its |
| Tx:12.39 | Little children, would you offer this to your Father? For if you | |
| Tx:13.20 | what you believed to be less fearful. You are therefore willing with | little opposition to look upon all sorts of “sources” underneath |
| Tx:13.55 | You will believe that nothing is of value and will value it. A | little piece of glass, a speck of dust, a body or a war are one to |
| Tx:13.75 | of help, and Help that knows the answer. Would you be content with | little, which is all that you alone can offer yourself, when He Who |
| Tx:14.2 | without you. You who have thrown your selves away and valued God so | little, hear me speak for Him and for yourselves. You cannot |
| Tx:14.29 | asked to do mighty tasks yourself. You are merely asked to do the | little He suggests you do, trusting Him only to the small extent of |
| Tx:14.33 | Everything that promises otherwise, great or small, however much or | little valued, He will replace with the one promise given unto Him to |
| Tx:14.37 | whom it was intended. To whom God gives Himself, He is given. Your | little gifts will vanish on the altar where He has placed His Own. |
| Tx:14.48 | and in great numbers. You are so used to this that it can cause you | little surprise. |
| Tx:14.50 | The | little sanity which still remains is held together by a sense of |
| Tx:14.67 | make no needs His Father will not meet if he but turn to Him ever so | little. Yet He cannot compel His Son to turn to Him and remain |
| Tx:14.68 | it is impossible. It is only because you think that you can run some | little part or deal with certain aspects of your lives alone that the |
| Tx:15.15 | friend if you leave it to the Holy Spirit to use. He needs but very | little to restore God's whole power to you. He Who transcends time |
| Tx:15.21 | Start now to practice your | little part in separating out the holy instant. You will receive very |
| Tx:15.22 | place of magnitude, and you accepted it. Everything in this world is | little because it is a world made out of littleness in the strange |
| Tx:15.24 | are and represents the value that you put upon yourself. Believe the | little can content you, and by limiting yourself, you will not be |
| Tx:15.24 | yourself, you will not be satisfied. For your function is not | little, and it is only by finding your function and fulfilling it |
| Tx:15.25 | in perfect awareness in a world of littleness is a task the | little cannot undertake. Yet it is asked of you in tribute to your |
| Tx:15.26 | every effort you make on behalf of His dear Son. Search for the | little, and you deny yourself His power. God is not willing that His |
| Tx:15.27 | deny His magnitude and make His Son hostage to the ego cannot make | little whom God has joined with Him. Every decision you make is for |
| Tx:15.27 | clearly and in perfect safety in your minds, untouched by every | little gift the world of littleness would offer you. But for this, |
| Tx:15.28 | in you from God are for all who, like you, perceive themselves as | little and have deceived themselves into believing that littleness |
| Tx:15.29 | to His Son's creations, but without leaving you. Far beyond your | little world but still in you, He extends forever. Yet He brings all |
| Tx:15.30 | know not what love means because you have sought to purchase it with | little gifts, thus valuing it too little to be able to understand its |
| Tx:15.30 | have sought to purchase it with little gifts, thus valuing it too | little to be able to understand its magnitude. Love is not little, |
| Tx:15.30 | it too little to be able to understand its magnitude. Love is not | little, and love dwells in you, for you are host to Him. Before the |
| Tx:15.30 | that lives in you, your poor appreciation of yourself and all the | little offerings you have given slip into nothingness. Holy Child of |
| Tx:15.57 | You have so | little faith in yourself because you are unwilling to accept the fact |
| Tx:15.73 | The other seems always to be attacking and wounding them, perhaps in | little ways, perhaps “unconsciously,” yet never without demand of |
| Tx:15.88 | Limits are demanded by the ego, representing its demands to make | little and ineffectual. Limit your vision of a brother to his body, |
| Tx:15.89 | that any limit is impossible. Would you not exchange your | little relationships for this? For the body is little and limited, |
| Tx:15.89 | you not exchange your little relationships for this? For the body is | little and limited, and only those whom you would see without the |
| Tx:15.98 | of the two is judged as the lesser of two evils, one to be feared a | little, but the other to be destroyed. For you see love as |
| Tx:16.11 | to fragment and then to be concerned about the truth of just a | little part of the whole. And this is but a way of avoiding or |
| Tx:16.16 | to its compelling attraction. You can delay this now but only a | little while. The Host of God has called to you, and you have heard. |
| Tx:16.18 | has called to you. His Voice has spoken clearly, and yet you have so | little faith in what you heard because you have preferred to place |
| Tx:16.28 | carries him across the gap as soon as he is willing to expend some | little effort on behalf of bridging it. His little efforts are |
| Tx:16.28 | willing to expend some little effort on behalf of bridging it. His | little efforts are powerfully supplemented by the strength of Heaven |
| Tx:16.52 | the specialness which you demand. And hating it, you have made it | little and unworthy because you are afraid of it. |
| Tx:16.53 | So fearful has the truth become to you that unless it is weak and | little, [and unworthy of value,] you would not dare to look upon it. |
| Tx:16.53 | you would not dare to look upon it. You think it safer to endow the | little self which you have made with power you wrested from truth, |
| Tx:16.63 | body is still seen but not exclusively, as it is seen here. For the | little spark which holds the Great Rays within it is also visible, |
| Tx:16.64 | see is grossly distorted and completely out of perspective. What is | little and insignificant is magnified, and what is strong and |
| Tx:16.69 | The Holy Spirit asks only this | little help of you. Whenever your thoughts wander to a special |
| Tx:17.7 | made your heart seem to sing with joy has ever brought you even a | little part of the happiness this sight will bring you. For you will |
| Tx:17.8 | to hide the truth. The bridge between that world and this is so | little and so easy to cross that you could not believe it is the |
| Tx:17.8 | not believe it is the meeting place of worlds so different. Yet this | little bridge is the strongest thing that touches on this world at |
| Tx:17.8 | is the strongest thing that touches on this world at all. This | little step, so small it has escaped your notice, is a stride through |
| Tx:17.32 | You have but | little difficulty now in realizing that the thought system which the |
| Tx:17.41 | remembrance, offering you the whole of creation in exchange for your | little picture, wholly without value and entirely deprived of meaning. |
| Tx:17.49 | He has given you a most explicit statement? Now He asks for faith a | little longer, even in bewilderment. For this will go, and you will |
| Tx:17.67 | was not holy because your faith in one another was so limited and | little. Your faith must grow to meet the goal that has been set. The |
| Tx:17.70 | the Holy Spirit's goal has been established is so far beyond your | little conception of the infinite that you have no idea how great the |
| Tx:17.70 | past the stars and to the universe that lies beyond them, your | little faithlessness can make it useless if you would use the |
| Tx:18.7 | other way; that truth is outside and error and guilt within. Your | little senseless substitutions, touched with insanity and swirling |
| Tx:18.9 | Let Him bring it here, where you would have it be. Give Him but a | little faith in each other, to help Him show you that no substitute |
| Tx:18.26 | darkness has been long and cruel, and you have gone deep into it. A | little flicker of your eyelids, closed so long, has not yet been |
| Tx:18.26 | When you retreat to the illusion, your fear increases, for there is | little doubt that what you think it means is fearful. Yet what is |
| Tx:18.28 | in complete accord with all the power of the Holy Spirit's will. No | little, faltering footsteps that you may take can separate your |
| Tx:18.31 | to Heaven. When such great light has joined with you to give the | little spark of your desire the power of God Himself, can you remain |
| Tx:18.32 | or you will add the ego unto Him and confuse the two. He asks but | little. It is He who adds the greatness and the might. He joins with |
| Tx:18.32 | than you can understand. It is your realization that you need do so | little that enables Him to give so much. |
| Tx:18.35 | The holy instant does not come from your | little willingness alone. It is always the result of your small |
| Tx:18.38 | And that is all. Add more and you will merely take away the | little that is asked. Remember you made guilt and that your plan for |
| Tx:18.38 | function for Him. Give Him but what He asks, that you may learn how | little is your part and how great is His. |
| Tx:18.39 | do. [You find it difficult to accept the idea that you need give so | little to receive so much.] And it is very hard for you to realize |
| Tx:18.42 | help. That is His function. Your part is only to offer Him a | little willingness to let Him remove all fear and hatred and to be |
| Tx:18.42 | to let Him remove all fear and hatred and to be forgiven. On your | little faith, joined with His understanding, He will build your part |
| Tx:18.44 | and you would merely bring unholy means to its accomplishment. The | little faith it needed to change the purpose is all that is required |
| Tx:18.72 | and to keep you apart from Him. The body is a tiny fence around a | little part of a glorious and complete idea. It draws a circle, |
| Tx:18.72 | complete idea. It draws a circle, infinitely small, around a very | little segment of Heaven splintered from the whole, proclaiming that |
| Tx:18.73 | Within this kingdom the ego rules, and cruelly. And to defend this | little speck of dust, it bids you fight against the universe. This |
| Tx:18.73 | hails itself as the ocean. Think how alone and frightened is this | little thought, this infinitesimal illusion, holding itself apart |
| Tx:18.73 | sunbeam's “enemy” which would devour it, and the ocean terrifies the | little ripple and wants to swallow it. |
| Tx:18.76 | joining with the rest and keeping it apart from its Creator. This | little aspect is no different from the whole, being continuous with |
| Tx:18.77 | Do not accept this | little fenced-off aspect as yourself. The sun and ocean are as |
| Tx:18.77 | who looks on nothing, yet who would still die to defend it? This | little self is not your kingdom. Arched high above it and surrounding |
| Tx:18.77 | which offers all its happiness and deep content to every part. The | little aspect which you think you set apart is no exception. |
| Tx:18.78 | keep complete what it would give. In your tiny kingdom, you have so | little! Should it not, then, be there that you would call on love to |
| Tx:18.78 | dry and unproductive, scorched and joyless, which makes up your | little kingdom. And realize the life and joy which love would bring |
| Tx:18.79 | The Thought of God surrounds your | little kingdom, waiting at the barrier you built to come inside and |
| Tx:18.79 | with them, as it will stay with you. And under its beneficence, your | little garden will expand and reach out to everyone who thirsts for |
| Tx:18.80 | So will it grow and stretch across the desert, leaving no lonely | little kingdoms locked away from love and leaving you inside. And you |
| Tx:18.80 | and leaving you inside. And you will recognize yourself and see your | little garden gently transformed into the Kingdom of Heaven with all |
| Tx:18.83 | this. Receive it now of Him, for He would have you know Him. Only a | little wall of dust still stands between you. Blow on it lightly and |
| Tx:18.84 | at its source. Therefore, it is the tiny part of yourself, the | little thought that seems split off and separate, which the Holy |
| Tx:18.85 | This is the | little part of you, you think you stole from Heaven. Give it back to |
| Tx:18.85 | One Who does surround it has brought union to you, returning your | little offering of darkness to the eternal Light. |
| Tx:18.86 | How is this done? It is extremely simple, being based on what this | little kingdom really is. The barren sands, the darkness and the |
| Tx:18.86 | messages it transmits to you who made it to limit your awareness are | little and limited and so fragmented they are meaningless. From the |
| Tx:19.6 | be possible only if the mind is limited to the body and divided into | little parts of seeming wholeness but without connection. This will |
| Tx:19.15 | As faithlessness will keep your | little kingdoms barren and separate, so will faith help the Holy |
| Tx:19.33 | gone. Its source has been removed, and so it can be cherished but a | little while before it vanishes. Only the habit of looking for it |
| Tx:19.41 | with you? What seems to be the cost you are so unwilling to pay? The | little barrier of sand still stands between you. Would you reinforce |
| Tx:19.41 | everyone, and how can He do this except through you? Would you let a | little bank of sand, a wall of dust, a tiny seeming barrier, stand |
| Tx:19.41 | stand between your brothers and salvation? And yet, it is this | little remnant of attack you cherish still against each other that is |
| Tx:19.41 | first obstacle the peace in you encounters in its going forth. This | little wall of hatred would still oppose the Will of God and keep it |
| Tx:19.42 | let it join you wholly. You still oppose the Will of God, just by a | little. And that little is a limit you would place upon the whole. |
| Tx:19.42 | wholly. You still oppose the Will of God, just by a little. And that | little is a limit you would place upon the whole. God's Will is One, |
| Tx:19.42 | there is none beside it. What you would still contain behind your | little barrier and keep separate from each other seems mightier than |
| Tx:19.42 | universe, for it would hold back the universe and its Creator. This | little wall would hide the purpose of Heaven and keep it from Heaven. |
| Tx:19.43 | Peace could no more depart from you than from God. Fear not this | little obstacle. It cannot contain the Will of God. Peace will flow |
| Tx:19.43 | apart from the one you asked the Holy Spirit to share with you. The | little wall will fall away so quietly beneath the wings of peace! For |
| Tx:19.44 | To overcome the world is no more difficult than to surmount your | little wall. For in the miracle of your relationship, without this |
| Tx:19.45 | There is a hush in Heaven, a happy expectancy, a | little pause of gladness in acknowledgment of the journey's end. For |
| Tx:19.45 | know Heaven. No illusions stand between you now. Look not upon the | little wall of shadows. The sun has risen over it. How can a shadow |
| Tx:19.46 | The | little insane wish to get rid of Him Who you invited in and push Him |
| Tx:19.46 | push Him out must produce conflict. As you look upon the world, this | little wish, uprooted and floating aimlessly, can land and settle |
| Tx:19.47 | weakness, which extends to everything. The variability which the | little remnant induces merely indicates its limited results. |
| Tx:19.48 | How mighty can a | little feather be before the great wings of truth? Can it oppose an |
| Tx:19.48 | sun upon a garden covered by the snow? See but how easily this | little wisp is lifted up and carried away, never to return, and part |
| Tx:19.51 | who allows them to feast only upon what they return to him. No | little shred of guilt escapes their hungry eyes. And in their savage |
| Tx:19.53 | the gentle and the kind. They will be as careful to let no | little act of charity, no tiny expression of forgiveness, no little |
| Tx:19.53 | let no little act of charity, no tiny expression of forgiveness, no | little breath of love escape their notice. And they will return with |
| Tx:19.58 | To think you could be satisfied and happy with so | little is to hurt yourself, and to limit the happiness that you would |
| Tx:19.63 | salvation, not the pain of guilt. And you want your Father, not a | little mound of clay, to be your home. In your holy relationship is |
| Tx:19.68 | Your | little part is but to give the Holy Spirit the whole idea of |
| Tx:20.19 | dangers, alone and frightened, hoping at most that death will wait a | little longer before it overtakes you and you disappear? You made |
| Tx:20.31 | freedom is. Ask not the sparrow how the eagle soars, for those with | little wings have not accepted for themselves the power to share with |
| Tx:20.39 | is that it wants the other for itself and therefore values him too | little. What is inestimable clearly cannot be evaluated. Do you |
| Tx:20.41 | Your brother's body is as | little use to you as it is to him. When it is used only as the Holy |
| Tx:20.41 | let this be accomplished, when one would do? There is but one. The | little breath of eternity that runs through time like golden light is |
| Tx:20.52 | of reality. And so it seemed to have a home that held together for a | little while in time and vanished. For what could house this mad idea |
| Tx:20.57 | Idolatry is past and meaningless. Perhaps you fear each other a | little yet; perhaps a shadow of the fear of God remains with you. Yet |
| Tx:20.58 | almost nothing of you. It is impossible to imagine one that asks so | little or could offer more. |
| Tx:20.60 | To obtain the goal, the Holy Spirit indeed asked | little. He asks no more to give the means as well. The means are |
| Tx:20.60 | and they are perfectly in line with it. Before we look at them a | little closer, remember that if you think they are impossible, your |
| Tx:20.71 | your distress and need for help unto the helpless? Is the pitifully | little the perfect choice to call upon for strength? Judgment will |
| Tx:21.7 | live, adjusting to it as they think they must, afraid to lose the | little that they have. And so it is with all who see the body as all |
| Tx:21.7 | adjust to loneliness, believing that to keep the body is to save the | little that they have. Listen and try to think if you remember what |
| Tx:21.8 | unremembered. Not the whole song has stayed with you, but just a | little wisp of melody, attached not to a person or a place or |
| Tx:21.8 | or a place or anything particular. But you remember from just this | little part how lovely was the song, how wonderful the setting where |
| Tx:21.13 | We have repeated how | little is asked of you to learn this course. It is the same small |
| Tx:21.13 | you need to have your whole relationship transformed to joy; the | little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit for which He gives you |
| Tx:21.13 | offer to the Holy Spirit for which He gives you everything; the very | little on which salvation rests; the tiny change of mind by which the |
| Tx:21.13 | it now, it will not be because it is obscure, but rather that this | little cost seemed in your judgment to be too much to pay for peace. |
| Tx:21.17 | of decision to Him Who must decide for God for you. This is the | little gift you offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to |
| Tx:21.18 | Begrudge not, then, this | little offering. Withhold it, and you keep the world as now you see |
| Tx:21.18 | and everything you see goes with it. Never was so much given for so | little. In the holy instant is this exchange effected and maintained. |
| Tx:21.20 | Perhaps you do not see the need for you to give this | little offering. Look closer, then, at what it is. And very simply |
| Tx:21.31 | is it strange to you that faith can move mountains? This is indeed a | little feat for such a power. For faith can keep the Son of God in |
| Tx:21.48 | keep apart has met and joined, and looks upon the ego unafraid. | Little children, innocent of sin, follow in gladness the way to |
| Tx:21.70 | the helpless could believe in it. Enormity has no appeal save to the | little. And only those who first believe that they are little could |
| Tx:21.70 | save to the little. And only those who first believe that they are | little could see attraction there. Treachery to the Son of God is the |
| Tx:21.81 | exchange your helplessness for power, and lose this same desire as a | little glint of sin attracts you. And you can want to see a sinless |
| Tx:22.48 | How weak is fear—how | little and how meaningless! How insignificant before the quiet |
| Tx:22.49 | If you but recognized how | little stands between you and your awareness of your union! Be not |
| Tx:22.58 | and welcomed. He will use every one of them for peace. Nor will one | little smile or willingness to overlook the tiniest mistake be lost |
| Tx:22.59 | He will join to it all the power that God has given Him to make each | little gift of love a source of healing for everyone. Each little |
| Tx:22.59 | make each little gift of love a source of healing for everyone. Each | little gift you offer to the other lights up the world. Be not |
| Tx:22.65 | is there, which makes all fear impossible? Do not attempt to keep a | little of the ego with this gift. For it was given you to be used and |
| Tx:23.4 | Let not the | little interferers pull you to littleness. There can be no attraction |
| Tx:23.4 | with truth beside you! Do not give up this world of freedom for a | little sigh of seeming sin nor for a tiny stirring of guilt's |
| Tx:23.5 | kept in your awareness. For who can know his glory and perceive the | little and the weak about him? Who can walk trembling in a fearful |
| Tx:23.13 | they fragment. But truth is indivisible and far beyond their | little reach. You will remember what you know when you have learned |
| Tx:23.43 | To compromise is to accept but part of what you want—to take a | little and give up the rest. Salvation gives up nothing. It is |
| Tx:23.43 | belief salvation is impossible. It would maintain you can attack a | little, love a little, and know the difference. Thus it would teach a |
| Tx:23.43 | is impossible. It would maintain you can attack a little, love a | little, and know the difference. Thus it would teach a little of the |
| Tx:23.43 | love a little, and know the difference. Thus it would teach a | little of the same can still be different, and yet the same remain |
| Tx:23.44 | quiet, calm assurance it has come. Forgiveness cannot be withheld a | little. Nor is it possible to attack for this and love for that and |
| Tx:23.50 | to all. Yet does the Holy Spirit understand how to increase your | little gifts and make them mighty. Also He understands how your |
| Tx:24.28 | not you that is so vulnerable and open to attack that just a word, a | little whisper that you do not like, a circumstance that suits you |
| Tx:24.32 | by Him Who made not death, but only in the dream. Open your eyes a | little; see the savior God gave to you that you might look on him and |
| Tx:24.60 | asked that you pursue another goal with far less vigilance—with | little effort and with little time and with the power of God |
| Tx:24.60 | another goal with far less vigilance—with little effort and with | little time and with the power of God maintaining it and promising |
| Tx:24.65 | Ask yourself this: can you protect the mind? The body, yes, a | little—not from time, but temporarily. And much you think you save, |
| Tx:25.35 | they may be pushed away before the light. They linger for a while, a | little while, in twisted forms too far away for recognition and are |
| Tx:25.36 | world and all the thoughts that entered it and were mistaken for a | little while. How better could your own mistakes be brought to truth |
| Tx:25.60 | the more basic tenet, “Sin is real and rules the world”? For every | little gain must someone lose and pay exact amount in blood and |
| Tx:25.64 | what one divided still against himself would find impossible. Have | little faith that wisdom could be found in such a state of mind. But |
| Tx:25.64 | be found in such a state of mind. But be you thankful that only | little faith is asked of you. What but a little faith remains to |
| Tx:25.64 | be you thankful that only little faith is asked of you. What but a | little faith remains to those who still believe in sin? What could |
| Tx:25.65 | not escaped. The laws of sin demand a victim. Who it may be makes | little difference. But death must be the cost and must be paid. This |
| Tx:25.66 | total cost. The rest is taken from another, to be laid beside your | little payment to “atone” for all that you would keep and not give |
| Tx:25.75 | Son has found a witness unto his sinlessness and not his sin. How | little need you give the Holy Spirit that simple justice may be given |
| Tx:25.78 | What can it be but arrogance to think your | little errors cannot be undone by Heaven's justice? And what could |
| Tx:25.86 | The | little problems that you keep and hide become your secret sins |
| Tx:26.1 | a sacrifice—a giving up of power in the name of saving just a | little for yourself. To see a brother in another body separate from |
| Tx:26.1 | body separate from yours is the expression of a wish to see a | little part of him and sacrifice the rest. Look at the world, and you |
| Tx:26.1 | attached to anything beyond itself. All seeming entities can come a | little nearer or go a little farther off but cannot join. |
| Tx:26.1 | beyond itself. All seeming entities can come a little nearer or go a | little farther off but cannot join. |
| Tx:26.3 | The | little that the body fences off becomes the self, preserved through |
| Tx:26.3 | through sacrifice of all the rest. And all the rest must lose this | little part, remaining incomplete to keep its own identity intact. In |
| Tx:26.3 | is limited and something still remains for you alone. And for this | little to belong to you are limits placed on everything outside, just |
| Tx:26.13 | nails away. He does not pause to judge whether the hurt be large or | little. He makes but one judgment—that to hurt God's Son must be |
| Tx:26.16 | one, for pain in any form you will not want. And you will see each | little hurt resolved before the Holy Spirit's gentle sight. For all |
| Tx:26.16 | resolved before the Holy Spirit's gentle sight. For all of them are | little in His sight and worth no more than just a tiny sigh before |
| Tx:26.28 | Forgiveness brings no | little miracles to lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God |
| Tx:26.29 | you still is holding back the happy opening of Heaven's gate. How | little is the hindrance which withholds the wealth of Heaven from |
| Tx:26.30 | A | little hindrance can seem large indeed to those who do not understand |
| Tx:26.31 | is ever lost but time, which in the end is [nothing. It] is but a | little hindrance to eternity, quite meaningless to the real Teacher |
| Tx:26.45 | Lead not your | little lives in solitude with one illusion as your only friend. This |
| Tx:26.54 | brother and yourself. They limit you to time and place and give a | little space to you, another little space to him. This separating off |
| Tx:26.54 | limit you to time and place and give a little space to you, another | little space to him. This separating off is symbolized in your |
| Tx:26.56 | Salvation, perfect and complete, asks but a | little wish that what is true be true; a little willingness to |
| Tx:26.56 | and complete, asks but a little wish that what is true be true; a | little willingness to overlook what is not there; a little sigh that |
| Tx:26.56 | true be true; a little willingness to overlook what is not there; a | little sigh that speaks for Heaven as a preference to this world |
| Tx:26.58 | Here does the Son of God ask not too much but far too | little. He would sacrifice his own identity with everything to find a |
| Tx:26.58 | He would sacrifice his own identity with everything to find a | little treasure of his own. And this he cannot do without a sense of |
| Tx:26.65 | But it is arrogant to lay aside the power that He gave and choose a | little senseless wish instead of what He wills. The gift of God to |
| Tx:26.67 | has been true be recognized by those who know it not. And by this | little gift of truth but let to be itself—the Son of God allowed to |
| Tx:26.68 | and will receive the benefits of trust. This but reflects the | little you would keep between yourselves that you might be a little |
| Tx:26.68 | the little you would keep between yourselves that you might be a | little separate. For time and space are one illusion which takes |
| Tx:26.69 | settle every problem now. Thus do you think it safer to remain a | little careful and a little watchful of interests perceived as |
| Tx:26.69 | now. Thus do you think it safer to remain a little careful and a | little watchful of interests perceived as separate. From this |
| Tx:26.70 | body is except in terms of what you see it for. If you would keep a | little space between you still, you want a little time in which |
| Tx:26.70 | for. If you would keep a little space between you still, you want a | little time in which forgiveness is withheld a little while. This |
| Tx:26.70 | you still, you want a little time in which forgiveness is withheld a | little while. This makes the interval between the time in which |
| Tx:26.75 | to be the form in which the “good” appears, is but one aspect of the | little space that lies between you, unforgiven still. |
| Tx:26.76 | consequence and cause must come as one. Look not to time but to the | little space between you still to be delivered from. And do not let |
| Tx:26.78 | Is it too much to ask a | little trust for him who carries Christ to you, that you may be |
| Tx:27.8 | every stolen scrap of pleasure is their righteous payment for their | little lives? Their death will pay the price for all of them if they |
| Tx:27.9 | be reason to remain content to seek for passing joys and cherish | little pleasures where you can. Yet in this picture is the body not |
| Tx:27.59 | Who sends forth miracles to bless the world, a tiny stab of pain, a | little worldly pleasure, and the throes of death itself are but a |
| Tx:27.67 | look to find the truth. The witnesses to sin all stand within one | little space. And it is here you find the cause of your perspective |
| Tx:27.69 | but casts him as it will in any role that satisfies its dream. So | little is his worth that he is but a dancing shadow, leaping up and |
| Tx:27.72 | of suffering, the space between your dreams and your reality. The | little gap you do not even see, the birthplace of illusions and of |
| Tx:27.77 | made by other bodies, born into the world outside the body, lives a | little while and dies, to be united in the dust with other bodies |
| Tx:27.78 | and real. It puts things on itself which it has bought with | little metal discs or paper strips the world proclaims as valuable |
| Tx:28.1 | are no longer in the mind that thought of them and loved them for a | little while. The miracle but shows the past is gone, and what has |
| Tx:28.15 | God has come to take the place of loss? What better way to close the | little gap between illusions and reality than to allow the memory of |
| Tx:28.30 | has been bred. Thus are you joined in sickness, to preserve the | little gap unhealed, where sickness is kept carefully protected, |
| Tx:28.30 | and upheld by firm belief, lest God should come to bridge the | little gap that leads to Him. Fight not His coming with illusions, |
| Tx:28.31 | end of fear, and love was never in the world of dreams. The gap is | little. Yet it holds the seeds of pestilence and every form of ill |
| Tx:28.32 | and covered up the space which seemed to keep them separate for a | little while? Where are the grounds for sickness when the minds have |
| Tx:28.32 | are the grounds for sickness when the minds have joined to close the | little gap between them where the seeds of sickness seemed to grow? |
| Tx:28.34 | have nothing left behind the open door. What is the world except a | little gap perceived to tear eternity apart and break it into days |
| Tx:28.39 | joined in brotherhood. His body and his dreams but seem to make a | little gap, where yours have joined with his. |
| Tx:28.40 | are kept in bondage to his dream. And dreams of fear will haunt the | little gap, inhabited but by illusions which you have supported in |
| Tx:28.44 | his identity, which the whole picture represents, instead of just a | little broken bit which he insisted was himself. And when he sees |
| Tx:28.44 | dream, this is the picture that the miracle will place within the | little gap, left clean of all the seeds of sickness and of sin. And |
| Tx:28.45 | I thank you, Father, knowing you will come to close each | little gap that lies between the broken pieces of Your holy Son. Your |
| Tx:28.50 | You have conceived a | little gap between illusions and the truth to be the place where all |
| Tx:28.50 | It does not know what seeing is, what listening is for. It is as | little able to perceive as it can judge or understand or know. Its |
| Tx:28.52 | it shares the function all creation shares. It is not made of | little bits of glass, a piece of wood, a thread or two perhaps, all |
| Tx:28.53 | You who believe there is a | little gap between you, do not understand that it is here that you |
| Tx:28.53 | tombs where terror rises from the bones of death. Look at the | little gap, and you behold the innocence and emptiness of sin that |
| Tx:28.54 | Who punishes the body is insane. For here the | little gap is seen, and yet it is not here. It has not judged itself |
| Tx:28.56 | It sees and acts for you. It hears your voice. And it is frail and | little by your wish. It seems to punish you and thus deserve your |
| Tx:28.57 | The body represents the gap between the | little bit of mind you call your own and all the rest of what is |
| Tx:28.60 | need ask for nothing. For there is no lack in him. An empty space, a | little gap, would be a lack. And it is only there that he could want |
| Tx:28.65 | when its weakness lies not in itself but in the frailty of the | little gap of nothingness whereon it stands? What can be safe which |
| Tx:28.66 | his home. And with this holy purpose is it made a home of holiness a | little while because it shares your Father's Will with you. |
| Tx:29.2 | that love is fearful—hate is love. This is the consequence the | little gap must bring to those who cherish it and think that it is |
| Tx:29.3 | that your separate interests made your friendship possible a | little while. But not without a gap between you, lest he turn again |
| Tx:29.42 | and with happiness! And what a joyous thing it is to dwell a | little while in such a happy place! Nor can it be forgot in such a |
| Tx:29.42 | in such a happy place! Nor can it be forgot in such a world, it is a | little while till timelessness comes quietly to take the place of |
| Tx:29.53 | for your reality. In some way, you believe they will complete your | little self [and let you walk in] safety in a world perceived as |
| Tx:29.53 | himself to littleness and loss. And thus must seek beyond his | little self for strength to raise his head and stand apart from all |
| Tx:29.57 | God, as perfect, sinless and as loving as his Father, come to hate a | little while, to suffer pain, and finally to die. |
| Tx:29.64 | and have done to make you sinful and put out the light within you. | Little children, it is there. You do but dream, and idols are the |
| Tx:29.66 | game in which the child becomes the father, powerful, but with the | little wisdom of a child. What hurts him is destroyed; what helps |
| Tx:29.68 | Forgiving dreams have | little need to last. They are not made to separate the mind from what |
| Tx:30.1 | —your willingness to practice every step. Each one will help a | little every time it is attempted. And together will these steps lead |
| Tx:30.2 | You do not always know when you are making them. But with a | little practice with the ones you recognize, a set begins to form |
| Tx:30.35 | not your will to hate and be a prisoner to fear, a slave to death, a | little creature with a little life. Your will is boundless; it is not |
| Tx:30.35 | be a prisoner to fear, a slave to death, a little creature with a | little life. Your will is boundless; it is not your will that it be |
| Tx:30.38 | attained. It is as if you said, “I have no need of everything. This | little thing I want, and it will be as everything to me.” And this |
| Tx:30.39 | what shares in all creation cannot be content with small ideas and | little things. |
| Tx:30.52 | that you believe about yourself obey no laws. They seem to dance a | little while, according to the rules you set for them. But then they |
| Tx:30.56 | made. No more than this is asked. Be glad indeed salvation asks so | little, not so much. It asks for nothing in reality. And even in |
| Tx:30.59 | happiness in him so sure and constant he can barely stay and wait a | little longer with his feet still touching earth. Yet is he glad to |
| Tx:31.6 | Is this a | little Voice, so small and still It cannot rise above the senseless |
| Tx:31.6 | sure as God, and far beyond all doubt and question? Can it be your | little learning, strange in outcome and incredible in difficulty, |
| Tx:31.33 | Thus you think within the narrow band from birth to death a | little time is given you to use for you alone, a time when everyone |
| Tx:31.45 | This aspect never makes the first attack. But every day a hundred | little things make small assaults upon its innocence, provoking it to |
| Tx:31.53 | does not seek to throw you into panic. So He merely asks if just a | little question might be raised. |
| Tx:31.70 | decreasingly persistent in your sight and will at length be seen as | little more than just a shadow circling round the good. And this will |
| Tx:31.93 | Deny me not the | little gift I ask when in exchange I lay before your feet the peace |
| W1:3.2 | to see things exactly as they appear to you now, and to realize how | little you really understand about them. It is therefore essential |
| W1:5.7 | mind for whatever is distressing you, regardless of how much or how | little you think it is doing so. |
| W1:8.4 | you may picture a thought, you are not seeing anything. With as | little investment as possible, search your mind for the usual minute |
| W1:9.2 | No more than that is required for these or any other exercises. Each | little step will clear a little of the darkness away, and |
| W1:9.2 | for these or any other exercises. Each little step will clear a | little of the darkness away, and understanding will finally come to |
| W1:10.6 | you are watching an oddly assorted procession going by, which has | little if any personal meaning to you. As each one crosses your mind, |
| W1:11.4 | periods today will probably be sufficient. However, if there is | little or no uneasiness and an inclination to do more, as many as |
| W1:15.2 | meaning for you. You will begin to understand it when you have seen | little edges of light around the same familiar objects which you see |
| W1:16.1 | There is no exception to this fact. Thoughts are not big or | little, powerful or weak. They are merely true or false. Those which |
| W1:20.3 | all that vision requires. What you want is yours. Do not mistake the | little effort that is asked of you for a sign that our goal is of |
| W1:20.3 | little effort that is asked of you for a sign that our goal is of | little worth. Can the salvation of the world be a trivial purpose? |
| W1:27.1 | exercises is to bring the time when the idea will be wholly true a | little nearer. |
| W1:28.3 | tiny experience of tables, nor are you limiting its purpose to your | little personal thoughts. |
| W1:29.3 | Nothing is as it appears to you. Its holy purpose stands beyond your | little range. When vision has shown you the holiness that lights up |
| W1:36.1 | as well. “Sinless” means without sin. You cannot be without sin a | little. You are sinless or not. If your mind is part of God's, you |
| W1:38.4 | of loss or unhappiness of any kind as you see it. Try to make as | little distinction as possible between a situation that is difficult |
| W1:40.3 | Today's exercises take | little time and no effort. Repeat today's idea, and then add several |
| W1:44.4 | recommended, but only if you find the time merely slipping by with | little or no sense of strain. The form of exercise we will use today |
| W1:44.6 | If you can stand aside from the ego by ever so | little, you will have no difficulty in recognizing that its |
| W1:45.11 | as yet to realize how high you are trying to go. Yet even with the | little understanding you have already gained, you should be able to |
| W1:65.6 | would interfere with it. Note each one as it comes to you with as | little involvement or concern as possible, dismissing each one by |
| W1:66.16 | probably less, to repeat these words slowly and think about them a | little while you say them. |
| W1:68.5 | out how you would feel without them. If you succeed even by ever so | little, there will never be a problem in motivation ever again. |
| W1:69.7 | begin to feel a sense of being lifted up and carried ahead. Your | little effort and small determination call on the power of the |
| W1:72.7 | do not let yourself be deprived of what the body offers. Take the | little you can get. God gave you nothing. The body is your only |
| W1:78.7 | have had with him, the pain he caused you, his neglect, and all the | little and the larger hurts he gave. We will regard his body with its |
| W1:91.4 | is impossible, but you are not alone in this. Your efforts, however | little they may be, have strong support. Did you but realize how |
| W1:92.1 | This is why you believe that you can change what you see by putting | little bits of glass or other clear material before your eyes held in |
| W1:92.10 | in which the gift of sight is given you. Leave, then, the dark a | little while today, and we will practice seeing in the light, closing |
| W1:95.19 | Do not forget today. We need your help, your | little part in bringing happiness to all the world. And Heaven looks |
| W1:96.16 | you cannot fail today. Perhaps your mind remains uncertain yet a | little while. Be not dismayed by this. The joy your Self experiences |
| W1:97.3 | closer to your mind. Each time you practice, awareness is brought a | little nearer at least; sometimes a thousand years or more are saved. |
| W1:97.4 | timelessness beside them. He will offer all His strength to every | little effort which you make. |
| W1:97.7 | more. And when it is returned to you, it will surpass in might the | little gift you gave as much as does the radiance of the sun outshine |
| W1:98.6 | of every kind and joy the world does not contain. You can exchange a | little of your time for peace of mind and certainty of purpose with |
| W1:98.13 | And when the hour is gone and He is there once more to spend a | little time with you, be thankful and lay down all earthly tasks, all |
| W1:98.13 | time with you, be thankful and lay down all earthly tasks, all | little thoughts and limited ideas, and spend a happy time again with |
| W1:100.9 | day that you succeed! Look deep within you, undismayed by all the | little thoughts and foolish goals you pass as you ascend to meet the |
| W1:100.10 | look upon in place of Him Who waits that you may look on Him? What | little thought has power to hold you back? What foolish goal can keep |
| W1:101.3 | away before it grants the welcome boon of death to victims who are | little more than bones before salvation is appeased. Its wrath is |
| W1:102.1 | suffer. You may think it buys you something and may still believe a | little that it buys you what you want. Yet this belief is surely |
| W1:105.7 | Today our practice periods will start a | little differently. Begin today by thinking of those brothers who |
| W1:105.7 | you must return to claim them as your own. Think of your “enemies” a | little while, and tell each one as he occurs to you: |
| W1:R3.9 | applying what you learned to them. As a result, you have gained | little reinforcement and have not given it the opportunity to prove |
| W1:R3.11 | Repeat it, and allow your mind to rest a | little time in silence and in peace. Then turn to other things, but |
| W1:R3.14 | Do not forget how | little you have learned. Do not forget how much you can learn now. Do |
| W1:121.11 | look at him a while. Try to perceive some light in him somewhere—a | little gleam which you had never noticed. Try to find some little |
| W1:121.11 | —a little gleam which you had never noticed. Try to find some | little spark of brightness shining through the ugly picture which you |
| W1:123.1 | the truth. A bit of wavering remains, some small objections, and a | little hesitance, but we can well be grateful for our gains, which |
| W1:124.2 | the way to truth, for God is our Companion as we walk the world a | little while. And those who come to follow us will recognize the way |
| W1:125.5 | you. He has not hid Himself from you while you have wandered off a | little while from Him. He does not cherish the illusions which you |
| W1:128.1 | he would leave this world behind and soar beyond its petty scope and | little ways. |
| W1:128.5 | which bar the door to freedom from the world and go beyond all | little values and diminished goals. |
| W1:128.6 | Peace and be still a | little while, and see how far you rise above the world when you |
| W1:128.7 | it before. Your whole perspective on the world will shift by just a | little every time you let your mind escape its chains. The world is |
| W1:129.2 | It might be worth a | little time to think once more about the value of this world. Perhaps |
| W1:129.5 | the world that comes to take its place as you unbind your mind from | little things the world sets forth to keep you prisoner there. Value |
| W1:130.7 | a thousand meaningless distinctions, nor attempt to bring with us a | little part of unreality as we devote our minds to finding only what |
| W1:130.12 | Accept a | little part of hell as real, and you have damned your eyes and cursed |
| W1:131.3 | while in your heart you pray for danger and protection for the | little dream you made. |
| W1:133.2 | You do not ask too much of life, but far too | little. When you let your mind be drawn to bodily concerns, to things |
| W1:133.2 | not for happiness. This course does not attempt to take from you the | little that you have. It does not try to substitute utopian ideas for |
| W1:133.6 | compromise in what your choice must bring. It cannot give you just a | little, for there is no in-between. Each choice you make brings |
| W1:134.6 | It does not countenance illusions but collects them lightly with a | little laugh and gently lays them at the feet of truth. And there |
| W1:135.5 | constant care and watchful, deep concern are needful to protect its | little life? What but the body falters and must fail to serve the Son |
| W1:135.7 | all the functions that you see in it and set its value far beyond a | little pile of dust and water. Who would make defense of something |
| W1:135.14 | far exceeds its own protection and which needs its service for a | little while. In this capacity is health assured. For everything the |
| W1:135.27 | defense to learn the part for you within the plan of God. What | little plans or magical beliefs can still have value when you have |
| W1:135.28 | celebrate your Eastertime with you. Throughout the day, as foolish | little things appear to raise defensiveness in you and tempt you to |
| W1:136.2 | change it, render it inept, distort it, twist it, or reduce it to a | little pile of unassembled parts. The aim of all defenses is to keep |
| W1:136.9 | strange, haunting thought that you might be something beyond this | little pile of dust silenced and stilled. For see, this dust can make |
| W1:136.13 | to give you happiness, for such its purpose is. Perhaps it sighs a | little when you throw away its gifts, and yet it knows with perfect |
| W1:137.9 | Him. His gentle lessons teach how easily salvation can be yours, how | little practice you need undertake to let His laws replace the ones |
| W1:137.10 | His life becomes your own as you extend the | little help He asks in freeing you from everything that ever caused |
| W1:137.13 | of the hour worth the giving to receive a gift like this? Is not a | little time a small expense to offer for the gift of everything? |
| W1:153.16 | of the world will close on us, and we will be unable to withdraw a | little while and turn our thoughts to God. |
| W1:156.7 | keep you bound no longer. The approach to God is near. And in the | little interval of doubt which still remains, you may perhaps lose |
| W1:157.7 | As this experience increases and all goals but this become of | little worth, the world to which you will return becomes a little |
| W1:157.7 | become of little worth, the world to which you will return becomes a | little closer to the end of time, a little more like Heaven in its |
| W1:157.7 | which you will return becomes a little closer to the end of time, a | little more like Heaven in its ways, a little nearer its deliverance. |
| W1:157.7 | closer to the end of time, a little more like Heaven in its ways, a | little nearer its deliverance. And you who bring it light will come |
| W1:161.4 | in the sense that it is all-encompassing. We need to see a | little that we learn a lot. |
| W1:164.9 | Would God deceive you? Can His promise fail? Can you withhold so | little when His Hand holds out complete salvation to His Son? |
| W1:166.5 | of the futility he sees about him everywhere, perceiving how his | little lot but dwindles as he goes ahead to nowhere. Still he wanders |
| W1:166.6 | —weary, worn, in threadbare clothing, and with feet that bleed a | little from the rocky road he walks. No one but has identified with |
| W1:167.2 | joy. All sorrow, loss, anxiety, and suffering and pain, even a | little sigh of weariness, a slight discomfort or the merest frown, |
| W1:169.10 | depends on. As you take the role assigned to you, salvation comes a | little nearer each uncertain heart that does not beat as yet in tune |
| W1:169.11 | Heaven yet does not replace the thought of time but for a | little while. The interval suffices. It is here that miracles are |
| W1:R5.2 | Word and make it ours. Lead our practicing as does a father lead a | little child along a way he does not understand. Yet does he follow, |
| W1:R5.7 | to meet us at the journey's ending. Every step we take brings us a | little nearer. This review will shorten time immeasurably if we keep |
| W1:R5.8 | I take the journey with you. For I share your doubts and fears a | little while, that you may come to me who recognize the road by which |
| W1:I2.2 | itself. Your motivation will be so intensified that words become of | little consequence. You will be sure of what you want and what is |
| W1:I2.3 | accept its presence. So we now attempt to go past all defenses for a | little while each day. No more than this is asked because no more |
| W1:181.3 | Therefore in practicing today, we first let all such | little focuses give way to our great need to let our sinlessness |
| W1:181.3 | instruct our minds that it is this we seek and only this, for just a | little while. We do not care about our future goals, and what we saw |
| W1:181.5 | We lay these pointless limitations by a | little while. We do not look to past beliefs, and what we will |
| W1:181.6 | So, for a | little while, without regard to past or future, should such blocks |
| W1:182.5 | house. You are His home as well. He will return. But give Him just a | little time to be Himself within the peace that is His home, resting |
| W1:182.6 | This Child needs your protection. He is far from home. He is so | little that He seems so easily shut out, His tiny Voice so readily |
| W1:182.9 | Rest with Him frequently today. For He was willing to become a | little child that you might learn of Him how strong is he who comes |
| W1:182.10 | Christ is reborn as but a | little Child each time a wanderer would leave his home. For he must |
| W1:182.11 | letting Him go home completed and completely. He has come as does a | little child who must beseech his father for protection and for love. |
| W1:183.4 | Repeat the Name of God and | little names have lost their meaning. No temptation but becomes a |
| W1:183.4 | to you, although before you let the Name of God replace their | little names, you stood before them worshipfully, naming them as gods. |
| W1:183.8 | And God will come and answer it Himself. Think not He hears the | little prayers of those who call on Him with names of idols cherished |
| W1:183.9 | thoughts respond with this, and see God's Name replace the thousand | little names you gave your thoughts, not realizing that there is One |
| W1:183.12 | All | little things are silent. Little sounds are soundless now. The little |
| W1:183.12 | All little things are silent. | Little sounds are soundless now. The little things of earth have |
| W1:183.12 | All little things are silent. Little sounds are soundless now. The | little things of earth have disappeared. The universe consists of |
| W1:184.4 | set against the given truth. Its enemy is wholeness. It conceives of | little things and looks upon them. And a lack of space, a sense of |
| W1:184.11 | Use all the | little names and symbols which delineate the world of darkness. Yet |
| W1:186.7 | Let it go. Salvation of the world depends on you and not upon this | little pile of dust. What can it tell the holy Son of God? Why need |
| W1:190.6 | and unchangeable forever and forever. And would you deny a | little corner of your mind its own inheritance and keep it as a |
| W1:190.8 | the world becomes a cruel and a bitter place, where sorrow rules and | little joys give way before the onslaught of the savage pain that |
| W1:193.15 | Give all you can and give a | little more, for now we would arise in haste and go unto our Father's |
| W1:193.16 | Each hour spend a | little time today, and in the days to come, in practicing the lesson |
| W1:193.20 | up to Heaven. God will take this final step Himself. Do not deny the | little steps He asks you take to Him. |
| W1:195.3 | bring him down to lie in death with you, as useless as yourself, as | little left within his grasping fingers as in yours. |
| W1:197.6 | and you can never think the gifts of God are lent but for a | little while before He snatches them away again in death. For death |

| Tx:15.22 | it is a world made out of littleness in the strange belief that | littleness can content you. When you strive for anything in this |
| Tx:15.22 | peace, you are belittling yourself and blinding yourself to glory. | Littleness and glory are the choices open to your striving and your |
| Tx:15.23 | choose is that your choice is your evaluation of yourself. Choose | littleness and you will not have peace, for you will have judged |
| Tx:15.23 | you accept the fact, and accept it gladly, that there is no form of | littleness that can ever content you. You are free to try as many as |
| Tx:15.24 | constitutes a tribute to your power. You who have sought and found | littleness, remember this: Every decision which you make stems from |
| Tx:15.24 | by finding your function and fulfilling it that you can escape from | littleness. |
| Tx:15.25 | it because you have it. All your striving must be directed against | littleness, for it does require vigilance to protect your magnitude |
| Tx:15.25 | world. To hold your magnitude in perfect awareness in a world of | littleness is a task the little cannot undertake. Yet it is asked of |
| Tx:15.25 | Yet it is asked of you in tribute to your magnitude and not your | littleness. Nor is it asked of you alone. |

| Tx:15.27 | safety in your minds, untouched by every little gift the world of | littleness would offer you. But for this, you cannot side against Him |
| Tx:15.28 | Decide for God through Him. For | littleness and the belief that you can be content with littleness are |
| Tx:15.28 | Him. For littleness and the belief that you can be content with | littleness are the decisions you have made about yourself. The power |

| Tx:15.31 | teach you what is yours, so that together we can replace the shabby | littleness that binds the host of God to guilt and weakness with the |
| Tx:15.31 | Father. Let us join in honoring you, who must remain forever beyond | littleness. |
| Tx:15.34 | be, there will you think you are. Hear not his call for hell and | littleness, but only his call for Heaven and greatness. Forget not |
| Tx:15.34 | His host, for it protects only the peace in which He dwells. Lay not | littleness before His holy altar, which rises above the stars and |
| Tx:15.35 | while you do not want it, for it holds the whole release from | littleness. |
| Tx:15.36 | Your practice must therefore rest upon your willingness to let all | littleness go. The instant in which magnitude will dawn upon you is |
| Tx:15.36 | away as your desire for it. As long as you desire it not and cherish | littleness instead, by so much is it far from you. By so much as you |
| Tx:15.37 | part in the plan that He has given to the world for its release from | littleness. God would have His host abide in perfect freedom. Every |
| Tx:15.38 | to give over every plan you have accepted for finding magnitude in | littleness. It is not there. Use the holy instant only to recognize |
| Tx:15.39 | to you to make the holy instant yours at once, for the release from | littleness in the mind of the host of God depends on willingness and |
| Tx:15.103 | it with me, you will give it with me. All pain and sacrifice and | littleness will disappear in our relationship, which is as innocent |
| Tx:16.51 | of guilt, which the ego holds out to those who place their faith in | littleness. The conviction of littleness lies in every special |

| Tx:16.63 | within it is also visible, and this spark cannot be limited long to | littleness. Once you have crossed the bridge, the value of the body |
| Tx:16.64 | is magnified, and what is strong and powerful cut down to | littleness. In the transition there is a period of confusion in which |
| Tx:18.34 | Humility will never ask that you remain content with | littleness. But it does require that you be not content with less |
| Tx:19.57 | Yet would I offer you my body, you whom I love, knowing its | littleness? Or would I teach that bodies cannot keep us apart? Mine |
| Tx:23.4 | Let not the little interferers pull you to | littleness. There can be no attraction of guilt in innocence. Think |
| Tx:23.4 | destiny and purpose are far beyond them in the clean place where | littleness does not exist. Your purpose is at variance with |
| Tx:23.4 | where littleness does not exist. Your purpose is at variance with | littleness of any kind. And so it is at variance with sin. |
| Tx:23.5 | Let us not let | littleness lead God's Son into temptation. His glory is beyond it, |
| Tx:24.12 | make of him a tiny measure of your specialness instead. Against the | littleness you see in him, you stand as tall and stately, clean and |
| Tx:24.13 | omnipotence yet share his power? And who can use him as the gauge of | littleness and be released from limits? You have a function in |

| Tx:3.72 | upon them. Both are cornerstones for systems of belief by which men | live. It is a mistake to believe that a thought system which is based |

| Tx:10.65 | in vain. Teach rather that I did not die by demonstrating that I | live in you. For the undoing of the crucifixion of God's Son is the |
| Tx:10.67 | awaken to your own call, for the Call to awake is within you. If I | live in you, you are awake. Yet you must see the works I do through |

| Tx:12.21 | in peace, he could not remain at all. For a darkened mind cannot | live in the light, and it must seek a place of darkness where it can |
| Tx:13.52 | to see nor do. These are but indirect expressions of the will to | live, which has been blocked by the capricious and unholy whim of |

| Tx:14.18 | only the light of love remains, for only this has meaning and can | live in light. Everything else must disappear. |

| Tx:15.40 | You could | live forever in the holy instant, beginning now and reaching to |

| Tx:16.33 | any purpose which they would not share with others, are trying to | live with guilt rather than die of it. This is the choice they see. |
| Tx:16.52 | theme in its litany to sacrifice is that God must die so you can | live. And it is this theme which is acted out in the special |
| Tx:18.25 | knowledge, for which you signified your willingness. Fear seems to | live in darkness, and when you are afraid, you have stepped back. Let |

| Tx:26.33 | To you who still believe you | live in time and know not it is gone, the Holy Spirit still guides |
| Tx:26.33 | still perceive in time, though it has long since gone. You think you | live in what is past. Each thing you look upon you saw but for an |
| Tx:26.40 | him. He was reborn the instant that he chose to die instead of | live. And will you not forgive him now because he made an error in |
| Tx:26.42 | the time of terror was replaced by love. And so you die each day to | live again until you cross the gap between past and present, which is |
| Tx:26.63 | instant offers life to him because his Father wills that he should | live. |
| Tx:27.8 | each one of their unnatural desires and strange needs. For who could | live a life so soon cut short and not esteem the worth of passing |
| Tx:27.11 | your brother let its message be, “Behold me, brother; at your hand I | live.” |
| Tx:27.49 | thanks withhold from you who let yourself be healed that it might | live. It will call forth its witnesses to show the face of Christ to |
| Tx:27.58 | no one can deny, for it is the effects of life it brings. The dying | live, the dead arise, and pain has vanished. Yet a miracle speaks not |
| Tx:27.77 | other bodies dying like itself. In the brief time allotted it to | live, it seeks for other bodies as its friends and enemies. Its |
| Tx:28.34 | and break it into days and months and years? And what are you who | live within the world except a picture of the Son of God in broken |
| Tx:29.21 | has built to keep apart all living things who know not that they | live. Within the dream of bodies and of death is yet one theme of |
| Tx:29.25 | choice is not between which dreams to keep, but only if you want to | live in dreams or to awaken from them. Thus it is the miracle does |
| Tx:29.70 | Forgiving dreams remind you that you | live in safety and have not attacked yourself. So do your childish |
| Tx:30.1 | need to practice them awhile, until they are the rules by which you | live. We seek to make them habits now, so you will have them ready |
| Tx:30.30 | Your day is not at random. It is set by what you choose to | live it with and how the friend whose counsel you have sought |
| Tx:31.12 | past that sentenced him to die, and you with him. Now is he free to | live, as you are free because an ancient learning passed away and |
| Tx:31.71 | You | live in that world just as much as this. For both are concepts of |
| W1:49.4 | thoughts and sounds and sights of this insane world. You do not | live there. We are trying to reach your real home. We are trying to |
| W1:53.3 | which represents chaotic thinking, and chaos has no laws. I cannot | live in peace in such a world. I am grateful that this world is not |
| W1:107.9 | our approach today. We are as certain of success as we are sure we | live and hope and breathe and think. We do not doubt we walk with |
| W1:121.4 | rising to attack its miserable parody of life. It wants to | live, yet wishes it were dead. It wants forgiveness, yet it sees no |
| W1:127.6 | the laws you think you must obey, of all the limits under which you | live, and all the changes which you think are part of human destiny. |
| W1:136.10 | Thus is the body stronger than the truth, which asks you | live but cannot overcome your choice to die. And so the body is more |
| W1:156.2 | That Life you share with Him. Nothing can be apart from Him and | live. |
| W1:156.4 | so holy that the world is sanctified because of you. All things that | live bring gifts to you and offer them in gratitude and gladness at |
| W1:158.1 | as well to every living thing, for by that knowledge only does it | live. |
| W1:162.2 | the world. The dead awake in answer to its call. And those who | live and hear this sound will never look on death. |
| W1:163.6 | in the rest. For death is total. Either all things die or else they | live and cannot die. No compromise is possible. For here again we see |
| W1:163.9 | the glorious reflection of Your love which shines in everything. We | live and breathe in You alone. We are not separate from Your eternal |
| W1:165.2 | you ever been apart from It an instant. It belongs to you. By It you | live. It is your Source of life, holding you one with It, and |
| W1:165.6 | remain forever starved by his denial of the nourishment he needs to | live? Abundance dwells in him, and deprivation cannot cut him off |
| W1:166.11 | Now do we | live, for now we cannot die. The wish for death is answered, and the |
| W1:167.2 | discomfort or the merest frown, acknowledge death. And thus deny you | live. |
| W1:169.15 | By grace I | live. By grace I am released. By grace I give. By grace I will |
| W1:180.2 | [169] By grace I | live. By grace I am released. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:182.1 | This world you seem to | live in is not home to you. And somewhere in your mind you know that |
| W1:184.1 | You | live by symbols. You have made up names for everything you see. Each |

| W1:190.7 | of death envelop it in fear, while in your kind forgiveness does it | live. |
| W1:197.7 | To everyone who lives will Christ yet come, for everyone must | live and breathe in Him. His Being in His Father is secure because |
| W1:199.8 | You are God's Son. In immortality you | live forever. Would you not return your mind to this? Then practice |
| W1:200.2 | out of hell. Attempt no more to win through losing, nor to die to | live. You cannot but be asking for defeat. |

| W2:278.1 | prisoner within a body in a world in which all things that seem to | live appear to die, then is my Father prisoner with me. And this do I |
| W2:287.1 | find and keep that can compare with my Identity? And would I rather | live with fear than love? |
| W2:297.1 | And I, who would be saved, would make it mine to be the way I | live within a world that needs salvation and that will be saved as I |
| W2:357.1 | offer miracles and thus escape the prison house in which I think I | live. Your holy Son is pointed out to me, first in my brother, then |
| M:6.1 | the patient might even try to destroy himself. Having nothing to | live for, he may ask for death. Healing must wait, for his protection. |

| Tx:10.26 | pain, of which God knows nothing. That way is hard indeed and very | lonely. Fear and grief are your guests, and they go with you and |
| Tx:12.22 | To “single out” is to “make alone” and thus make | lonely. God did not do this to you. Could He set you apart, knowing |

| Tx:1.106 | choose freely to devote yourselves to the greater restoration. As | long as a single slave remains to walk the earth, your release is not |
| Tx:2.14 | or comprehensive reawakening or rebirth. This is impossible as | long as man projects in the spirit of miscreation. It still remains |
| Tx:2.36 | which was generated by man. The Atonement principle was in effect | long before the Atonement itself began. The principle was love, and |
| Tx:2.38 | The Atonement actually began | long before the crucifixion. Many Souls offered their efforts on |
| Tx:2.41 | time but, like the miracle which serves it, does not abolish it. As | long as there is need for Atonement, there is need for time. But the |
| Tx:2.48 | or levels of perception is usually experienced as conflict for a | long time and can become very acute, but the outcome is as certain as |

| Tx:2.69 | of the space-time belief, healing ability is temporary. However, as | long as time persists, healing is needed as a means for human |

| Tx:3.60 | As | long as perception lasts, prayer has a place. Since perception rests |
| Tx:4.13 | if I believed this, and you will not be a devoted teacher as | long as you maintain it. I am constantly being perceived as a teacher |
| Tx:4.14 | teaching or your learning. Your worth was established by God. As | long as you dispute this, everything you do will be fearful, |
| Tx:4.14 | on this point is a delusion and no form of devotion is possible as | long as this delusion lasts. |
| Tx:4.15 | to overcome its doubts. It will be doubtful forever, or rather as | long as you believe in it. You who made it cannot trust it because |
| Tx:4.28 | Belief is an ego function, and as | long as your origin is open to belief at all, you are regarding it |
| Tx:4.53 | I will never forsake you any more than God will, but I must wait as | long as you choose to forsake yourself. Because I wait in love and |
| Tx:4.53 | you will be ready to help me make other minds ready for Him. How | long will you deny Him His Kingdom? |
| Tx:4.61 | about those your ego has hurt, the Atonement cannot release you. As | long as you feel guilty, your ego is in command because only the ego |
| Tx:4.81 | This removes the block entirely. You may ask how this is possible as | long as you appear to be living in this world, and since this is a |
| Tx:4.84 | however, or you will regard yourselves as necessarily conflicted as | long as you are here, or more properly, as long as you believe that |

| Tx:5.57 | it to hold it. The full power of creation cannot be expressed as | long as any of God's ideas withhold it from the Kingdom. The joint |
| Tx:6.24 | utterly meaningless. The separation is the notion of rejection. As | long as you teach this, you still believe it. This is not as God |
| Tx:6.69 | not have been necessary. Some people remain at this step for a very | long time, experiencing very acute conflict. At this point, many try |

| Tx:6.88 | As | long as you must be vigilant against anything, however, you are not |

| Tx:7.23 | purpose but very useful for His. If different abilities are applied | long enough to one goal, the abilities themselves become unified. |
| Tx:7.29 | To be in the Kingdom is merely to focus your full attention on it. As | long as you believe that you can attend to what is not true, you are |
| Tx:7.48 | of mind as God created it, but you think that you have changed it as | long as you learn through the ego. This does place you in a position |
| Tx:7.63 | conflict entirely and for all time. [This requires vigilance only as | long as you do not recognize what is true.] While you believe that |
| Tx:7.73 | brother is the mirror in which you will see the image of yourself as | long as perception lasts. And perception will last until the Sonship |
| Tx:7.74 | You made perception, and it must last as | long as you want it. Illusions are investments. They will last as |
| Tx:7.74 | as long as you want it. Illusions are investments. They will last as | long as you value them. Values are relative, but they are powerful |
| Tx:7.101 | equally obvious. What is joyful to you is painful to the ego and, as | long as you are in doubt about what you are, you will be confused |
| Tx:7.103 | The Holy Spirit always sides with you and with your strength. As | long as you avoid His guidance in any way, you want to be weak. Yet |
| Tx:8.10 | The ego cannot teach you anything as | long as your will is free, because you will not listen to it. It is |
| Tx:8.95 | can your messages be when you ask for what you do not want? Yet as | long as you are afraid of your will, this is precisely what you will |
| Tx:8.104 | the absence of reality is fearful, and fear cannot be created. As | long as you believe that fear is possible, you will not create. |
| Tx:9.49 | between suspiciousness and viciousness. It remains suspicious as | long as you despair of yourself. It shifts to viciousness whenever |
| Tx:9.59 | time solely as a means to regain eternity. You cannot do this as | long as you believe that anything which happens to you is caused by |
| Tx:9.64 | know your creations is simply that you would decide against them as | long as your minds are split, and to attack what you have created is |
| Tx:9.65 | your own experience that what you see in dreams you think is real as | long as you are asleep. Yet the instant you waken, you know that |
| Tx:9.106 | the denial of love, because love shares and arrogance withholds. As | long as both appear to you to be desirable, the concept of choice, |
| Tx:10.22 | invite. You are free to determine who shall be your guest and how | long he shall remain with you. Yet this is not real freedom, for it |
| Tx:10.66 | you perceive the Son of God as crucified, you are asleep. And as | long as you believe that you can crucify him, you are only having |
| Tx:10.75 | interpret it for you, He will restore what you have thrown away. As | long as you think you know its meaning, you will see no need to ask |
| Tx:10.80 | will receive. The Holy Spirit will answer every specific problem as | long as you believe that problems are specific. His answer is both |
| Tx:10.80 | that problems are specific. His answer is both many and one, as | long as you believe that the one is many. Realize that you are afraid |
| Tx:11.65 | As | long as you believe you have two functions, so long will you need |
| Tx:11.65 | As long as you believe you have two functions, so | long will you need correction. For this belief is the destruction of |
| Tx:11.68 | integrity and enables it to believe that it is pursuing one goal. As | long as you perceive the world as split, you are not healed. For to |
| Tx:11.75 | of guilt is an essential part of the Holy Spirit's teaching. For as | long as you feel guilty, you are listening to the voice of the ego, |
| Tx:11.89 | Long ago we said that the Holy Spirit shares the goal of all good | |
| Tx:11.91 | in one direction, but when you reach its end, it will roll up like a | long carpet which has spread along the past behind you and will |
| Tx:11.91 | which has spread along the past behind you and will disappear. As | long as you believe the Son of God is guilty, you will walk along |
| Tx:11.91 | carpet, believing that it leads to death. And the journey will seem | long and cruel and senseless, for so it is. |
| Tx:12.16 | illusion on which they rest. For beneath them and concealed as | long as they are hidden is the loving mind that thought it made them |
| Tx:12.18 | your brothers, for though they may deceive themselves, like you they | long for the grandeur that is in them. And perceiving it you will |
| Tx:12.23 | inheritance except the dust out of which it thinks you were made. As | long as it is reasonably satisfied with you, as its reasoning goes, |
| Tx:12.70 | gives you all the things that you need have and will renew them as | long as you have need of them. He will take nothing from you as long |
| Tx:12.70 | as long as you have need of them. He will take nothing from you as | long as you have any need of it. And yet He knows that everything you |
| Tx:13.25 | As | long as you believe that guilt is justified in any way in anyone |
| Tx:13.25 | you would always find Atonement. The end of guilt will never come as | long as you believe there is a reason for it. For you must learn that |
| Tx:14.39 | and is undone, because the contradiction can no longer stand. How | long can contradiction stand when its impossible nature is clearly |
| Tx:14.57 | there is need for love, you must give it because of what you are. | Long ago we said this course will teach you what you are, restoring |
| Tx:15.12 | Whenever you are tempted to be dispirited by the thought of how | long it would take to change your mind so completely, ask yourself, |
| Tx:15.12 | it would take to change your mind so completely, ask yourself, “How | long is an instant?” Could you not give so short a time to the Holy |
| Tx:15.13 | released and to offer time to the Holy Spirit for His use of it. How | long is an instant? It is as short for your brother as it is for you. |
| Tx:15.14 | escape from guilt. You must be holy if you offer holiness. How | long is an instant? As long as it takes to reestablish perfect |
| Tx:15.14 | You must be holy if you offer holiness. How long is an instant? As | long as it takes to reestablish perfect sanity, perfect peace, and |
| Tx:15.14 | peace, and perfect love for everyone, for God, and for yourself. As | long as it takes to remember immortality and your immortal creations |
| Tx:15.14 | immortality and your immortal creations who share it with you. As | long as it takes to exchange hell for Heaven. Long enough to |
| Tx:15.14 | share it with you. As long as it takes to exchange hell for Heaven. | Long enough to transcend all of the ego's making and ascend unto your |
| Tx:15.18 | How | long can it take to be where God would have you? For you are where |
| Tx:15.19 | release is complete, is always recognized. He cannot be denied. As | long as you remain uncertain, it can be only because you have not |
| Tx:15.36 | will dawn upon you is but as far away as your desire for it. As | long as you desire it not and cherish littleness instead, by so much |
| Tx:15.43 | Atonement. You will not be able to accept perfect communication as | long as you would hide it from yourself. For what you would hide is |
| Tx:15.56 | this you cannot have while guilt remains. And there will be guilt as | long as you accept the possibility, and cherish it, that you can make |
| Tx:15.63 | could not be in full communication with all that ever was. Yet as | long as you prefer to be something else, or would attempt to be |
| Tx:15.72 | the mind goes or what it thinks, for this seems unimportant. As | long as the body is there to receive its sacrifice, it is content. To |
| Tx:15.74 | for anger is its blessing. Anger takes many forms, but it cannot | long deceive those who will learn that love brings no guilt at all, |
| Tx:15.74 | special relationships. Guilt is the only need the ego has, and as | long as you identify with it, guilt will remain attractive to you. |
| Tx:15.76 | but the working of the ego's plan to establish its own autonomy. As | long as you believe that to be with a body is companionship, you will |
| Tx:15.88 | Limit your vision of a brother to his body, which you will do as | long as you would not release him from it, and you have denied his |
| Tx:15.89 | the attraction of the eternal. No one can hear Him speak of this and | long remain willing to linger here. For it is your will to be in |
| Tx:15.95 | from what it is. Yet it is necessary to examine each one as | long as you would retain the principle which governs all of them. |
| Tx:15.105 | As | long as you perceive the body as your reality, so long will you |
| Tx:15.105 | As long as you perceive the body as your reality, so | long will you perceive yourself as lonely and deprived. And so long |
| Tx:15.105 | so long will you perceive yourself as lonely and deprived. And so | long will you also perceive yourself as a victim of sacrifice, |
| Tx:15.105 | breeds attack, being the belief that attack is justified. And as | long as you would retain the deprivation, attack becomes salvation, |
| Tx:15.112 | year begin in joy and freedom. There is much to do, and we have been | long delayed. Accept the holy instant as this year is born and take |
| Tx:15.112 | Accept the holy instant as this year is born and take your place, so | long left unfulfilled, in the Great Awakening. Make this year |
| Tx:16.8 | is not the way, for it leads not to light and truth. No needs will | long be left unmet if you leave them all to Him Whose function is to |
| Tx:16.13 | of what has clearly been accomplished through your willingness, as | long as you believe that you must understand it or else it is not |
| Tx:16.32 | off and kept apart. The special love partner is acceptable only as | long as he serves this purpose. Hatred can enter and indeed is |
| Tx:16.34 | of hate, but always at the price of making both illusions. As | long as the illusion of hatred lasts, so long will love be an |
| Tx:16.34 | making both illusions. As long as the illusion of hatred lasts, so | long will love be an illusion to you. And then the only choice which |
| Tx:16.63 | Rays within it is also visible, and this spark cannot be limited | long to littleness. Once you have crossed the bridge, the value of |
| Tx:16.76 | your experience of truth and illusion. Yet you will not attempt this | long. In the holy instant, the power of the Holy Spirit will prevail |
| Tx:17.4 | As | long as you would have it so, so long will the illusion of order of |
| Tx:17.4 | As long as you would have it so, so | long will the illusion of order of difficulty in miracles remain with |
| Tx:18.26 | You do not know because the journey into darkness has been | long and cruel, and you have gone deep into it. A little flicker of |
| Tx:18.26 | have gone deep into it. A little flicker of your eyelids, closed so | long, has not yet been sufficient to give you confidence in |
| Tx:18.26 | has not yet been sufficient to give you confidence in yourselves, so | long despised. You go toward love, still hating it and terribly |
| Tx:18.31 | can you remain in darkness? You are coming home together after a | long and meaningless journey which you undertook apart and which led |
| Tx:18.66 | but it does aim at saving time. You are attempting to follow a very | long road to the goal you have accepted. It is extremely difficult to |
| Tx:18.66 | what is hated and despised.] Nor is a lifetime of contemplation and | long periods of meditation aimed at detachment from the body |
| Tx:18.83 | you welcomed has come to you and would welcome you. He has waited | long to give you this. Receive it now of Him, for He would have you |
| Tx:18.89 | The body will remain guilt's messenger and will act as it directs as | long as you believe that guilt is real. For the reality of guilt is |
| Tx:18.91 | from loveliness to the grotesque. And back and forth they go, as | long as you would play the game of children's make-believe. Yet |
| Tx:18.91 | as you would play the game of children's make-believe. Yet however | long you play it, and regardless of how much imagination you bring to |
| Tx:19.29 | Time is like a downward spiral which seems to travel down from a | long, unbroken line along another plane but which in no way breaks |
| Tx:19.34 | your lips and Heaven's blessing on your sight. You will not see it | long. For in the new perception, the mind corrects it when it seems |
| Tx:19.55 | before the table of communion. And I will join you there, as | long ago I promised and promise still. For in your new relationship |
| Tx:19.82 | dedication which would keep the body incorruptible and perfect as | long as it is useful for your holy purpose. The body no more dies |
| Tx:19.110 | his Father. Here is the only purpose that gives this world and the | long journey through this world whatever meaning lies in them. Beyond |
| Tx:20.20 | outside you in the world. And to this world must you adjust, as | long as you believe this picture is outside and has you at its mercy. |
| Tx:20.21 | Who in a holy relationship can | long remain unholy? The world the holy see is one with them, just as |
| Tx:20.25 | years, starved and emaciated, weak and exhausted and with eyes so | long cast down in darkness they remember not the light, do not leap |
| Tx:20.25 | hand, uncertain whether to let it go or to take hold on life so | long forgotten. Strengthen your hold and raise your eyes unto your |
| Tx:20.57 | have been given one true relationship beyond the body? Can they be | long held back from looking on the face of Christ? And can they long |
| Tx:20.57 | be long held back from looking on the face of Christ? And can they | long withhold the memory of their relationship with their Father from |
| Tx:21.8 | and yet not altogether unfamiliar, like a song whose name is | long forgotten, and the circumstances in which you heard completely |
| Tx:21.9 | as this. Listen and see if you remember an ancient song you knew so | long ago and held more dear than any melody you taught yourself to |
| Tx:21.25 | as a cause of the events and feelings its maker thinks it causes. | Long ago we spoke of your desire to create your own Creator and be |
| Tx:21.31 | for such a power. For faith can keep the Son of God in chains as | long as he believes he is in chains. And when he is released from |
| Tx:21.47 | come to earth at last, from which the ego's rule has kept it out so | long. Heaven has come because it found a home in your relationship on |
| Tx:22.1 | Take pity on yourselves, so | long enslaved. Rejoice whom God hath joined have come together and |
| Tx:22.6 | it says, you cannot understand. Yet you have listened to it. And | long and hard you tried to understand its messages. You did not |
| Tx:22.41 | look to the other! How happy you will be to be together after such a | long and lonely journey where you walked alone. The gates of Heaven, |
| Tx:22.49 | happen when they come together? Can the illusion of immovability be | long defended from what is quietly passed through and gone beyond? |
| Tx:22.56 | of everything that is eternal. No trace of anything in time can | long remain in minds that serve the timeless. And no illusion can |
| Tx:22.57 | and serve it willingly. And could remembrance of what they are be | long delayed? |
| Tx:23.15 | disappears when it is brought to truth! For it seems real only as | long as it is seen as war between conflicting truths, the conqueror |
| Tx:23.42 | still contains nothing. And neither the receiver nor the giver is | long deceived. Withhold forgiveness from your brother, and you attack |
| Tx:24.38 | Long ago we said consider not the means by which salvation is | |
| Tx:24.57 | See him as what he is that your deliverance may not be | long. A senseless wandering, without a purpose and without |
| Tx:25.2 | him can fail to recognize Him everywhere. Except in bodies. And as | long as they believe they are in bodies, where they think they are He |
| Tx:25.13 | time or place has anything but fear and guilt been your reward. How | long is needed for you to realize the chance of change in this |
| Tx:25.13 | in better outcome? For one thing is sure—the way you see, and | long have seen, gives no support to base your future hopes and no |
| Tx:25.33 | And while you think that suffering and sin will bring you joy, so | long will they be there for you to see. Nothing is harmful or |
| Tx:25.34 | there is pushed away until it is but distant shadows, far away, not | long to be remembered as the sun shines them to nothingness. And all |
| Tx:25.44 | and the light of brilliant day seems painful to the eyes grown | long accustomed to the dim effects perceived at twilight. And they |
| Tx:26.33 | small and senseless maze you still perceive in time, though it has | long since gone. You think you live in what is past. Each thing you |
| Tx:26.33 | what is past. Each thing you look upon you saw but for an instant, | long ago before its unreality gave way to truth. Not one illusion |
| Tx:26.33 | unanswered in your mind. Uncertainty was brought to certainty so | long ago that it is hard indeed to hold it to your heart as if it |
| Tx:26.34 | world in answer to creation—did this world appear to rise. So very | long ago, for such a tiny interval of time that not one note in |
| Tx:26.36 | and dream himself across an ocean to a place and time that have | long since gone by? How real a hindrance can this dream be to where |
| Tx:26.38 | Forget the time of terror that has been so | long ago corrected and undone. Can sin withstand the Will of God? Can |
| Tx:26.39 | Would God allow His Son to lose his way along a road | long since a memory of time gone by? [This course will teach you only |
| Tx:26.39 | unto His Father's perfect Love. And how can he be kept in chains | long since removed and gone forever from his mind? |
| Tx:26.42 | to death and on to life again, a repetition of an instant gone by | long ago, which cannot be relived. And all of time is but the mad |
| Tx:26.43 | of God nor any need that you repeat again a journey that was over | long ago. Look gently on each other and behold the world in which |
| Tx:26.81 | Heaven is grateful for this gift of what has been withheld so | long. For They have come to gather in Their Own. What has been locked |
| Tx:27.20 | is the witness unto his and cannot be apart from his at all. As | long as he consents to suffer, you will be unhealed. Yet you can show |
| Tx:27.45 | Health is the witness unto health. As | long as it is unattested, it remains without conviction. Only when |
| Tx:28.1 | It does not add, but merely takes away. And what it takes away is | long since gone, but being kept in memory, appears to have immediate |
| Tx:28.1 | in memory, appears to have immediate effects. This world was over | long ago. The thoughts that made it are no longer in the mind that |
| Tx:28.4 | not a memory of past events, but only of a present state. You are so | long accustomed to believe that memory holds only what is past that |
| Tx:29.22 | see your brother then and understand what really fills the gap so | long perceived as keeping you apart. |
| Tx:30.43 | what He knows exists forever, changelessly. For thoughts endure as | long as does the mind that thought of them. And in the Mind of God |
| Tx:30.69 | Will of God must reach to their awareness. Nor can they forget for | long that it is but their own. |
| Tx:31.69 | You could not recognize your “evil” thoughts as | long as you see value in attack. You will perceive them sometimes, |
| Tx:31.77 | are, all those you saw an instant and forgot, and those you knew a | long while since, and those you will yet meet, the unremembered and |

| W1:65.4 | the trivial purposes and goals you will pursue. This is part of the | long range disciplinary training which your mind needs, so that the |
| W1:72.11 | us. To achieve this goal, we must replace attack with acceptance. As | long as we attack it, we cannot understand what God's plan for us is. |
| W1:75.2 | Today we celebrate the happy ending to your | long dream of disaster. There are no dark dreams now. The light has |
| W1:76.4 | things. You call them laws and put them under different names in a | long catalogue of rituals that have no use and serve no purpose. You |
| W1:78.10 | you have asked for cannot be denied. Your savior has been waiting | long for this. He would be free and make his freedom yours. The Holy |
| W1:79.3 | the answer, but you are still uncertain about what the problem is. A | long series of different problems seems to confront you, and as one |
| W1:94.6 | this goal except to lay all idols and self-images aside, go past the | long list of attributes, both “good” and “bad,” you have ascribed to |
| W1:95.5 | reminded of your purpose frequently, you tend to forget about it for | long periods of time. You often fail to remember the short |
| W1:106.10 | expect an answer. Your request is one whose answer has been waiting | long to be received by you. It will begin the ministry for which you |
| W1:109.7 | made glad, a bird with broken wings begins to sing, a stream | long dry begins to flow again. The world is born again each time you |
| W1:126.11 | and all your brothers. Do not let your mind forget this goal for | long, but tell yourself: |
| W1:151.2 | eyes. Nor do you ask why you believe it, even though you learned a | long while since your senses do deceive. That you believe them to the |
| W1:153.15 | will begin each day by giving our attention to the daily thought as | long as possible. Five minutes now becomes the least we give to |
| W1:157.1 | a different kind of feeling and awareness. You have spent | long days and nights in celebrating death. Today you learn to feel |
| W1:166.4 | indeed and homeless too—an outcast wandering so far from home, so | long away, he does not realize he has forgotten where he came from, |
| W1:169.8 | forever to remain as it is now. We merely take the part assigned | long since and fully recognized as perfectly fulfilled by Him Who |
| W1:181.8 | thoughts to keep us safe throughout the day. We do not seek for | long range goals. As each obstruction seems to block the vision of |
| W1:187.8 | now is yours to give as well. No form of sacrifice and suffering can | long endure before the face of one who has forgiven and has blessed |
| W1:193.15 | arise in haste and go unto our Father's house. We have been gone too | long, and we would linger here no more. And as we practice, let us |
| W1:195.7 | is opening at last to us. An ancient door is swinging free again; a | long forgotten Word re-echoes in our memory and gathers clarity as we |
| W1:199.1 | Freedom must be impossible as | long as you perceive a body as yourself. The body is a limit. Who |
| W2:I.2 | will continue spending time with Him each morning and at night, as | long as makes us happy. We will not consider time a matter of |
| W2:223.2 | Your Son. And we would not forget You longer. We are lonely here and | long for Heaven where we are at home. Today we would return. Our Name |
| W2:WIS.5 | How | long, oh Son of God, will you maintain the game of sin? Shall we not |

| Tx:20.8 | Look you still closer at them now, and you will see your altar is no | longer what it was. |
| Tx:20.19 | alone and frightened, hoping at most that death will wait a little | longer before it overtakes you and you disappear? You made this up. |
| Tx:20.51 | not your home. Your temple is not threatened. You are idolaters no | longer. The Holy Spirit's purpose lies safe in your relationship and |
| Tx:20.74 | sure—hallucinations serve a purpose, and when that purpose is no | longer held, they disappear. Therefore, the question never is whether |
| Tx:21.10 | eyes. The edges of the circle disappear, and what is in it is no | longer contained at all. The light expands and covers everything, |

| Tx:21.31 | And when he is released from them, it will be simply because he no | longer believes in them, withdrawing faith that they can hold him and |
| Tx:21.32 | them completely instead of yours, you will have need of them no | longer. For faith and vision and belief are meaningful only before |
| Tx:21.47 | it found a home in your relationship on earth. And earth can hold no | longer what has been given Heaven as its own. |
| Tx:21.74 | that no one made him powerless? Reason would surely bid him seek no | longer what is not there to find. Yet first he must be willing to |
| Tx:22.1 | Rejoice whom God hath joined have come together and need no | longer look on sin apart. No two can look on sin together, for they |
| Tx:22.38 | was to decide which branch you will take now. The way you came no | longer matters. It can no longer serve. No one who reaches this far |
| Tx:22.38 | you will take now. The way you came no longer matters. It can no | longer serve. No one who reaches this far can make the wrong |
| Tx:22.55 | Before a holy relationship there is no sin. The form of error is no | longer seen, and reason, joined with love, looks quietly on all |
| Tx:24.17 | to take their place. This is the only “cost” of truth: you will no | longer see what never was, nor hear what makes no sound. Is it a |
| Tx:24.54 | face of Christ from him, and you as well. And let the fear of God no | longer hold the vision you were meant to see from you. Your brother's |
| Tx:26.36 | is no other teacher and no other way. For what has been undone no | longer is. And who can stand upon a distant shore and dream himself |
| Tx:26.43 | Forgive the past and let it go, for it is gone. You stand no | longer on the ground that lies between the worlds. You have gone on |
| Tx:27.48 | Life is given you to give the dying world. And suffering eyes no | longer will accuse, but shine in thanks to you who blessing gave. The |
| Tx:27.58 | It matters not the name by which you called your suffering. It is no | longer there. The One Who brings the miracle perceived them all as |
| Tx:28.1 | This world was over long ago. The thoughts that made it are no | longer in the mind that thought of them and loved them for a little |
| Tx:28.9 | that It has not gone. When you forgive It for your sins, It will no | longer be denied. |
| Tx:28.23 | deprived of His effects and powerless to keep them since He was no | longer their Creator. In the dream, the dreamer made himself, but |
| Tx:28.35 | and your Self. The door is open that all those may come who would no | longer starve and would enjoy the feast of plenty set before them |
| Tx:29.17 | is asked? For He is told that part of Him belongs to Him no | longer. He must sacrifice your self, and in His sacrifice are you |
| Tx:29.43 | Be you glad that you are told where happiness abides and seek no | longer elsewhere. You will fail. But it is given you to know the |
| Tx:30.24 | the day and have remembered what you really want. Its purpose has no | longer been obscured by the insane belief you want it for the goal of |
| Tx:30.55 | as reality. You are but asked to let your will be done and seek no | longer for the things you do not want. And you are asked to let |
| Tx:30.57 | is perceived and takes the place of idols which are sought no | longer, for their “gifts” are not held dear. No rules are idly set, |
| Tx:30.59 | in him so sure and constant he can barely stay and wait a little | longer with his feet still touching earth. Yet is he glad to wait |
| Tx:30.65 | the world. And with it goes all hatred and all fear. Look back no | longer, for what lies ahead is all you ever wanted in your hearts. |
| Tx:31.1 | false cannot be true, and what is true cannot be false? You can no | longer say that you perceive no differences in false and true. You |
| Tx:31.36 | signpost in the world which seems to point to still another road. No | longer look for hope where there is none. Make fast your learning |
| Tx:31.48 | are has now become his sin. For this is no forgiveness possible. No | longer does it matter what he does, for your accusing finger points |
| Tx:31.69 | been forgiven with his, because you let them all affect you not. No | longer did you choose that you should be the sign of evil and of |
| Tx:31.79 | remain your concept of yourself until the wish that fathered it no | longer is held dear. But while you cherish it, you will behold your |
| W1:12.2 | time interval. Do not allow the time of the shift to become markedly | longer or shorter, but try, instead, to keep a measured, even tempo |
| W1:19.5 | practice period should be quite familiar to you by now and will no | longer be repeated each day, although it will occasionally be |
| W1:26.3 | perception of yourself. And because you believe in them, you can no | longer believe in yourself. A false image of yourself has come to |
| W1:26.6 | not be able to use very many for any one practice period, because a | longer time than usual should be spent with each one. Today's idea |
| W1:31.2 | Two | longer periods of practice with the idea for today are needed, one in |
| W1:32.1 | see it, as you wish. While you want it, you will see it; when you no | longer want it, it will not be there for you to see. |
| W1:32.4 | For the two | longer practice periods, three to five minutes are recommended, with |
| W1:34.2 | Three | longer practice periods are required for today's exercises. One in |
| W1:34.3 | Some five minutes of mind searching are required for each of the | longer practice periods. Search your mind for fear thoughts, anxiety |
| W1:35.10 | During the | longer exercise periods, there will probably be intervals in which |
| W1:36.2 | frequently to protect your protection throughout the day. The | longer practice periods should take this form: |
| W1:37.4 | Today's four | longer exercise periods, each to involve three to five minutes of |
| W1:38.4 | In the four | longer practice periods, each preferably to last a full five minutes, |
| W1:39.5 | A full five minutes are urged for the four | longer practice periods for today. Longer and more frequent practice |
| W1:39.5 | minutes are urged for the four longer practice periods for today. | Longer and more frequent practice sessions are encouraged. If you |
| W1:39.5 | If you want to exceed the minimum requirements, more rather than | longer sessions are recommended, although both are encouraged. |
| W1:42.3 | We will have two three- to five-minute | longer exercise periods today, one as soon as possible after you wake |
| W1:43.8 | For the second and | longer phase of the exercise period, close your eyes, repeat today's |
| W1:44.4 | three practice periods today, each lasting three to five minutes. A | longer time is highly recommended, but only if you find the time |
| W1:44.5 | Your mind is no | longer wholly untrained. You are quite ready to learn the form of |
| W1:46.3 | periods and as many shorter applications as possible. Begin the | longer practice periods by repeating today's idea to yourself, as |
| W1:47.4 | strength. Four five-minute practice periods are necessary today, and | longer and more frequent ones are urged. Close your eyes and begin as |
| W1:51.6 | this to defend a thought system which has hurt me and which I no | longer want. I am willing to let it go. |
| W1:57.3 | the Son of God. I was bitterly mistaken in this belief, which I no | longer want. The Son of God must be forever free. He is as God |
| W1:58.2 | does the perception of the real world come. Having forgiven, I no | longer see myself as guilty. I can accept the innocence that is the |
| W1:61.8 | and your only purpose here. These two practice periods may be | longer than the rest if you find them helpful and want to extend them. |
| W1:65.5 | For this | longer practice period, begin by reviewing the idea for today. Then |
| W1:65.8 | will become harder to find. Try, however, to continue a minute or so | longer, attempting to catch a few of the idle thoughts which escaped |
| W1:66.4 | Our | longer practice period today has as its purpose your acceptance of |
| W1:66.11 | Think about this during the | longer practice period today. Think also about the many forms which |
| W1:67.2 | to realize fully, if only for a moment, that it is the truth. In the | longer practice period, we will think about your reality and its |
| W1:69.3 | Let us begin our | longer practice period today with the full realization of all this |
| W1:70.7 | We are ready for two | longer practice periods today, each of which should last some ten to |
| W1:71.9 | Begin the two | longer practice periods for today by thinking about today's idea, and |
| W1:72.11 | Our goal in the | longer practice periods today is to become aware that God's plan for |
| W1:72.15 | We are no | longer asking the ego what salvation is and where to find it. We are |
| W1:72.18 | periods an hour will be enough for today since they will be somewhat | longer than usual. These exercises begin with this: |
| W1:73.10 | We will begin our | longer practice periods with the recognition that God's plan for |
| W1:74.3 | Begin the | longer practice periods by repeating these thoughts several times, |
| W1:75.4 | Our | longer practice periods will be devoted to looking at the world which |
| W1:75.5 | and in it we see Heaven's reflection lie across the world. Begin the | longer practice periods by telling yourself the glad tidings of your |
| W1:76.7 | We will devote today to rejoicing that this is so. It is no | longer a truth which we would hide. We realize instead it is a truth |
| W1:76.8 | We will begin the | longer practice period today with a short review of the different |
| W1:77.4 | Begin the | longer practice periods by telling yourself quite confidently that |
| W1:78.7 | Our | longer practice periods today will see him in this role. We will |
| W1:79.7 | In our | longer practice periods today, we will ask what the problem is and |
| W1:80.4 | In our | longer practice periods today, we will claim the peace that must be |
| W1:R2.1 | ideas, and the latter part of the day to the other. We will have one | longer exercise period and frequent shorter ones in which we practice |
| W1:R2.2 | The | longer practice periods will follow this general form: take about 15 |
| W1:86.5 | excluding my only hope of salvation from my awareness. I would no | longer defeat my own best interests in this insane way. I would |
| W1:91.6 | Begin the | longer practice periods with this statement of true cause and effect |
| W1:93.8 | In our | longer exercise periods today, which would be most profitable if done |
| W1:99.12 | Think of these things in practicing today, and start your | longer practice periods with this instruction in the way of truth: |
| W1:100.11 | Do not forget the idea for today between your | longer practice periods. It is your Self Who calls to you today. And |
| W1:102.3 | For several days we will continue to devote our | longer practice periods to exercises planned to help you reach the |
| W1:102.4 | Begin the | longer practice periods today with this acceptance of God's Will for |
| W1:104.4 | Our | longer practice periods today, the hourly five minutes given truth |
| W1:106.3 | and in love. Hear only Him today, and do not wait to reach Him | longer. Hear one Voice today. |
| W1:R3.5 | use for these reviews is this: devote five minutes twice a day, or | longer if you would prefer, to considering the thoughts that are |
| W1:R3.10 | we stress the need to let your learning not lie idly by between your | longer practice periods. Attempt to give your daily two ideas a brief |
| W1:121.10 | Begin the | longer practice periods by thinking of someone you do not like, who |
| W1:122.7 | be received today and that the intricacies of your dreams no | longer hide their nothingness from you. |
| W1:123.4 | we lift our hearts above despair and raise our thankful eyes, no | longer looking downward to the dust. We sing the song of thankfulness |
| W1:131.9 | Eternal Will has given him to be his home forever? Let us not try | longer to impose an alien will upon God's single purpose. He is here |
| W1:136.21 | should this occur by not allowing your defensiveness to hurt you | longer. Do not be confused about what must be healed, but tell |
| W1:137.7 | be real, then questions have been answered. And the laws can be no | longer cherished nor obeyed. |
| W1:151.10 | and can behold the gentle face of Christ in all of them. You will no | longer doubt that only good can come to you who are beloved of God, |
| W1:152.3 | the second has no meaning, but without the second is the first no | longer true. Truth cannot have an opposite. This cannot be too often |
| W1:153.3 | another circle bound it, and another in that one, until escape no | longer can be hoped for nor obtained. Attack, defense; defense, |
| W1:156.7 | The past is gone with all its fantasies. They keep you bound no | longer. The approach to God is near. And in the little interval of |
| W1:161.4 | The mind that taught itself to think specifically can no | longer grasp abstraction in the sense that it is all-encompassing. We |
| W1:168.4 | light as theirs. What now remains that Heaven be delayed an instant | longer? What remains undone when your forgiveness rests on everything? |
| W1:170.12 | last time upon this bit of carven stone you made and call it god no | longer. You have reached this place before, but you have chosen that |
| W1:182.8 | Voice. So poignantly He calls to you that you will not resist Him | longer. In that instant, He will take you to His home, and you will |

| W1:191.12 | glory is the light that saves the world. Do not withhold salvation | longer. Look about the world, and see the suffering there. Is not |
| W1:194.9 | rest to make the choice for us that leaves temptation far behind. No | longer is the world our enemy, for we have chosen that we be its |

| W1:198.13 | of God alone remains upon it. Only that can be perceived an instant | longer. Then are symbols done and everything you ever thought you |
| W1:199.1 | it where it cannot be found. The mind can be made free when it no | longer sees itself as in a body, firmly tied to it and sheltered by |
| W1:200.3 | can only fail. Forgive yourself for vain imaginings, and seek no | longer what you cannot find. For what could be more foolish than to |

| W2:I.9 | were the truth. Now we are glad that this is all undone, and we no | longer think illusions true. The memory of God is shimmering across |
| W2:223.2 | proclaims that we are not Your Son. And we would not forget You | longer. We are lonely here and long for Heaven where we are at home. |

| M:5.2 | Healing is accomplished the instant the sufferer no | longer sees any value in pain. Who would choose suffering unless he |

| M:10.2 | Recognizing that judgment was always impossible for him, he no | longer attempts it. This is no sacrifice. On the contrary, he puts |
| M:11.4 | answer to raise it up again. Now is the question different. It is no | longer, “Can peace be possible in this world?” but instead, “Is it |
| M:12.1 | Self Who is the Son of God. He who was always wholly spirit now no | longer sees Himself as a body or even as in a body. Therefore He is |

| M:15.1 | from the truth? But the Final Judgment will not come until it is no | longer associated with fear. One day each one will welcome it, and on |

| M:18.5 | worker by definition. His sins have been forgiven him, and he no | longer condemns himself. How can he then condemn anyone? And who is |
| M:22.7 | judgment from the Son of God, accepting him as God created him. No | longer does he stand apart from God, determining where healing should |

| Tx:10.43 | When we | look at the ego, then, we are not considering dynamics but delusions. |
| Tx:11.13 | If you would | look upon love, which is the world's reality, how could you do better |
| Tx:11.17 | darkness of your own certainty and refusing to open your eyes and | look at them. |
| Tx:11.18 | and so they are not fit gifts for you. Take off the covers and | look at what you are afraid of. Only the anticipation will frighten |
| Tx:11.18 | for quietness is the end of strife and this is the journey to peace. | Look straight at every image that rises to delay you, for the goal is |
| Tx:11.22 | upon it, for to lay aside means to judge against. If you will | look, the Holy Spirit will judge and will judge truly. He cannot |
| Tx:11.35 | God and His Son dwell in peace and where you are welcome, you will | look out in peace and behold the world truly. Yet to find the place, |
| Tx:11.40 | for you will be seeking it where it is not. You do not know how to | look within yourself, for you do not believe your home is there. Yet |
| Tx:11.51 | set yourself is depressing indeed, it is merely ridiculous if you | look at it. Is it possible that the way to achieve a goal is not to |
| Tx:11.55 | the world. The only thing of value in it is whatever part of it you | look upon with love. This gives it the only reality it will ever |
| Tx:11.56 | to the remembering of God. Christ's eyes are open, and He will | look upon whatever you see with love if you accept His vision as |
| Tx:11.65 | be convinced? For you will believe in what you manifest, and as you | look out, so will you see in. Two ways of looking at the world are in |
| Tx:11.66 | have invited Him. For He will send you His witnesses if you will but | look upon them. Remember always that you see what you seek, for what |
| Tx:11.67 | for projection is a law of mind. Perception is projection, and you | look in before you look out. As you look in you choose the guide for |
| Tx:11.67 | a law of mind. Perception is projection, and you look in before you | look out. As you look in you choose the guide for seeing, and then |
| Tx:11.67 | is projection, and you look in before you look out. As you | look in you choose the guide for seeing, and then you look out and |
| Tx:11.67 | out. As you look in you choose the guide for seeing, and then you | look out and behold his witnesses. This is why you find what you |
| Tx:11.72 | you. I have heard your call and I have answered it, but you will not | look upon me nor hear the answer which you sought. That is because |
| Tx:11.72 | will learn that you do want only that. And you will see me as you | look within, and we will look upon the world as God created it |
| Tx:11.72 | want only that. And you will see me as you look within, and we will | look upon the world as God created it together. Through the eyes of |
| Tx:11.73 | When you | look within and see me, it will be because you have decided to |
| Tx:11.74 | Remember, then, that whenever you | look without and react unfavorably to what you see, you have judged |
| Tx:11.76 | that I did not die. You will realize that this is true when you | look within and see me. Would I have overcome death for myself alone? |
| Tx:11.76 | the deathless in yourself, and you will see only the eternal as you | look out upon a world that cannot die. |
| Tx:11.81 | control yourselves should hardly aspire to control the universe. But | look upon what you have made of it and rejoice that it is not so. Son |
| Tx:11.84 | you made and which you see. But take it from the hand of Christ and | look upon it. Its reality will make everything else invisible, for |
| Tx:11.84 | else invisible, for beholding it is total perception. And as you | look upon it, you will remember that it was always so. Nothingness |
| Tx:11.86 | world you see is the delusional system of those made mad by guilt. | Look carefully at this world, and you will realize that this is so. |
| Tx:11.90 | guilt the ego has no life, and God's Son is without guilt. As you | look upon yourselves and judge what you do honestly, as you have been |
| Tx:11.94 | will realize that there is no guilt in God's Son. And only as you | look upon him as guiltless can you understand his oneness. For the |
| Tx:12.4 | depend on keeping this secret. So it is this secret that we must | look upon calmly, for the ego cannot protect you against truth, and |
| Tx:12.8 | and its offerings, but though you do not want the ego, you do not | look upon the alternative with gladness. You are afraid of |
| Tx:12.10 | You may wonder why it is so crucial that you | look upon your hatred and realize its full extent. You may also think |
| Tx:12.11 | You could | look even upon the ego's darkest cornerstone without fear if you did |
| Tx:12.12 | is nothing compared to your fear of love. You would be willing to | look even upon your savage wish to kill God's Son if you did not |
| Tx:12.16 | The reason you must | look upon your delusions and not keep them hidden is that they do not |
| Tx:12.22 | answer is the reference point beyond illusions from which you can | look back on them and see them as insane. But seek this place, and |
| Tx:12.37 | it, and all the love your brothers offer you, you do not see. As you | look with open eyes upon your world, it must occur to you that you |
| Tx:12.38 | completely, and you see only your own split mind everywhere you | look. God calls you and you do not hear, for you are preoccupied with |
| Tx:12.38 | own voice. And the vision of Christ is not in your sight, for you | look upon yourself alone. |
| Tx:12.39 | changed. You who know not what you do can learn what insanity is and | look beyond it. It is given you to learn how to deny insanity and |
| Tx:12.43 | which is undimmed by your dreams. And this you will see as you | look with Him, for His vision is His gift of love to you, given Him |
| Tx:12.45 | sane to perceive what was now. If you remember the past as you | look upon your brother, you will be unable to perceive the reality |
| Tx:12.46 | this is unnatural because it is delusional. When you have learned to | look upon everyone with no reference at all to the past, either his |
| Tx:12.47 | see Him through Himself. To be born again is to let the past go and | look without condemnation upon the present. For the cloud which |
| Tx:12.50 | Look lovingly upon the present, for it holds the only things that are | |
| Tx:12.51 | does not change and where there is no sight of what you were, you | look at Christ and call His witnesses to shine on you because you |
| Tx:12.55 | so compelling that it will draw the others out of darkness as you | look on them. |
| Tx:12.56 | closed. You do not see your brothers, and in the darkness you cannot | look upon the light you gave to them. |
| Tx:12.58 | Sit quietly and | look upon the world you see, and tell yourself, |
| Tx:13.17 | You throw a dark veil over it and cannot see it because you cannot | look within. You are afraid of what you would see there, but it is |
| Tx:13.17 | there, but it is not there. The thing you fear is gone. If you would | look within, you would see only the Atonement, shining in quiet and |
| Tx:13.18 | Do not be afraid to | look within. The ego tells you all is black with guilt within you and |
| Tx:13.18 | ego tells you all is black with guilt within you and bids you not to | look. Instead, it bids you look upon your brothers and see the guilt |
| Tx:13.18 | with guilt within you and bids you not to look. Instead, it bids you | look upon your brothers and see the guilt in them. Yet this you |
| Tx:13.18 | and guilty in the dark in which they shroud them, are too afraid to | look upon the light within. Within you is not what you believe is |
| Tx:13.19 | innocence? You can deny His knowledge, but you cannot change it. | Look, then, upon the light He placed within you and learn that what |
| Tx:13.20 | be less fearful. You are therefore willing with little opposition to | look upon all sorts of “sources” underneath awareness, provided that |
| Tx:13.22 | they do believe in it. Yet, though they suffer, they will not | look within and let it go. They cannot know they love and cannot |
| Tx:13.24 | shone within you all the while you dreamed of guilt and would not | look within and see it. |
| Tx:13.25 | is justified in any way in anyone whatever he may do, you will not | look within, where you would always find Atonement. The end of guilt |
| Tx:13.27 | wholly unjustified, and wholly without reason, you will not fear to | look upon the Atonement and accept it wholly. |
| Tx:13.28 | you is the perfect purity in which you were created. Fear not to | look upon the lovely truth in you. Look through the cloud of guilt |
| Tx:13.28 | you were created. Fear not to look upon the lovely truth in you. | Look through the cloud of guilt that dims your vision, and look past |
| Tx:13.28 | in you. Look through the cloud of guilt that dims your vision, and | look past darkness to the holy place where you will see the light. |
| Tx:13.29 | Release from guilt as you would be released. There is no other way to | look within and see the light of love shining as steadily and as |
| Tx:13.29 | who have always loved your Father can have no fear for any reason to | look within and see your holiness. You cannot be as you believed you |
| Tx:13.31 | Behold the Son of God and | look upon his purity and be still. In quiet look upon his holiness |
| Tx:13.31 | Behold the Son of God and look upon his purity and be still. In quiet | look upon his holiness and offer thanks unto his Father that no guilt |
| Tx:13.32 | untouched by guilt and wholly loving, is bright within you. Let us | look upon him together and love him. For in our love of him is your |
| Tx:13.32 | and love him. For in our love of him is your guiltlessness. But | look upon yourself, and gladness and appreciation for what you see |
| Tx:13.35 | the war is between forces that are real and unreal powers, he could | look upon himself and see his freedom. No one finds himself ravaged |
| Tx:13.60 | how foolish it has been. Be glad it is undone, for when you | look at it in simple honesty, it is undone. We said before, “Be not |
| Tx:13.61 | in all its gracious simplicity. With truth before you, you will not | look back. |
| Tx:13.65 | to using guiltlessness merely to offset the pain of guilt and do not | look upon it as having value in itself. You believe that guilt and |
| Tx:13.72 | to His Son is his, and nothing else can His Son see or choose to | look upon without imposing on himself the penalty of guilt in place |
| Tx:14.15 | everything that makes it holy. Come gladly to the holy circle, and | look out in peace on all who think they are outside. Cast no one out, |
| Tx:14.18 | being nothing at all. As guardians of darkness and of ignorance, | look to them only for fear, for what they keep obscure is fearful. |
| Tx:14.25 | by hiding truth in fear, you see no reason to believe the more you | look at fear, the less you see it, and the clearer what it conceals |
| Tx:14.30 | if you make the darkness open to Him. But what you hide He cannot | look upon. For He sees for you, and unless you look with Him, He |
| Tx:14.30 | you hide He cannot look upon. For He sees for you, and unless you | look with Him, He cannot see. The vision of Christ is not for Him |
| Tx:14.30 | you. Bring, therefore, all your dark and secret thoughts to Him and | look upon them with Him. He holds the light, and you the darkness. |
| Tx:14.30 | and you the darkness. They cannot coexist when both of you together | look on them. His judgment must prevail, and He will give it to you |
| Tx:14.43 | it because he has been taught his need for it but knows not where to | look to find it. Let him, then, see it in you and share it with you. |
| Tx:14.44 | mind is not obscure and will not change. Its meaning to those who | look upon it is not obscure, for everyone perceives it as the same. |
| Tx:15.6 | leap from hell into oblivion. The only time the ego allows anyone to | look upon with some amount of equanimity is the past. And even there |
| Tx:15.46 | If you seek to separate out certain aspects of the totality and | look to them to meet your imagined needs, you are attempting to use |
| Tx:15.53 | of the past, you see that love is in you, and you have no need to | look without and snatch it guiltily from where you thought it was. |
| Tx:15.67 | for what it is. For having been made real to you, it is essential to | look at it clearly, and by withdrawing your investment in it, to |
| Tx:15.69 | of his release, and in the name of Him Who would release him, let us | look more closely at the relationships which the ego contrives and |
| Tx:15.69 | Holy Spirit judge them truly. For it is certain that, if you will | look at them, you will offer them gladly to Him. What He can make of |
| Tx:15.96 | conceive of love without sacrifice. And it is this that you must | look upon—sacrifice is attack, not love. If you would accept but |
| Tx:15.99 | this has been so great that you have given God away rather than | look at it. For if God would demand total sacrifice of you, you |
| Tx:16.17 | honestly what they have been? God wills you better. Could you not | look with greater charity on whom God loves with perfect love? |
| Tx:16.21 | that your Teacher came from beyond your thought system and so could | look upon it fairly and perceive it was untrue. And He must have done |
| Tx:16.30 | Be not afraid to | look upon the special hate relationship, for freedom lies in looking |
| Tx:16.30 | it go. Your salvation will rise clearly before your open eyes as you | look on this. You cannot limit hate. The special love relationship |
| Tx:16.36 | How but in illusion could this be done? It is essential that we | look very closely at exactly what it is you think you can do to solve |
| Tx:16.37 | relationship with them is without guilt, and this enables you to | look on all your brothers with gratitude because your creations were |
| Tx:16.53 | is weak and little, [and unworthy of value,] you would not dare to | look upon it. You think it safer to endow the little self which you |
| Tx:16.60 | Love is freedom. To | look for it by placing yourself in bondage is to separate yourself |
| Tx:16.60 | the ego has taught you that freedom lies in it. Yet the closer you | look at the special relationship, the more apparent it becomes that |
| Tx:16.67 | have escaped the mockery of salvation which the ego offered you and | look not back with longing on the travesty it made of your |
| Tx:16.67 | of the beauty and holiness of guilt. Only the wholly insane could | look on death and suffering, sickness and despair and see it thus. |
| Tx:16.74 | But what else could it be? In seeking the special relationship, you | look not for glory in yourself. You have denied that it is there, and |
| Tx:17.7 | Can you imagine how beautiful those you forgive will | look to you? In no fantasy have you ever seen anything so lovely. |
| Tx:17.7 | of God. You will behold the beauty which the Holy Spirit loves to | look upon and which He thanks the Father for. He was created to see |
| Tx:17.12 | All this beauty will rise to bless your sight as you | look upon the world with forgiving eyes. For forgiveness literally |
| Tx:17.35 | Look at the picture. Do not let the frame distract you. This gift is | |
| Tx:17.35 | gift. Let not your gaze dwell on the hypnotic gleaming of the frame. | Look at the picture, and realize that death is offered you. |
| Tx:17.38 | is the gift. And only on this basis are you really free to choose. | Look at the pictures. Both of them. One is a tiny picture, hard to |
| Tx:17.38 | enclosure. The other is lightly framed and hung in light, lovely to | look upon for what it is. |
| Tx:17.39 | and ceases to distract you from the picture. And finally you | look upon the picture itself, seeing at last that, unprotected by the |
| Tx:17.40 | The picture of Heaven and eternity grows more convincing as you | look at it. And now by real comparison a transformation of both |
| Tx:17.41 | contrast, is transformed into what lies beyond the picture. As you | look on this, you realize that it is not a picture but a reality. |
| Tx:17.57 | to use them in each situation separately, until you can more safely | look beyond each situation in an understanding far broader than you |
| Tx:17.59 | to happen and makes no sense until it has already happened. Then you | look back at it and try to piece together what it must have meant. |
| Tx:17.68 | and you are faithless. Use not your faithlessness. Let it enter and | look upon it calmly, but do not use it. Faithlessness is the servant |
| Tx:17.68 | of the goal to you. Accept not the illusion of peace it offers, but | look upon its offering and recognize it is illusion. |
| Tx:18.5 | of it? Its fragmented aspects are fearful enough, as you begin to | look at them. But nothing you have seen begins to show you the |
| Tx:18.12 | apart what is already broken and hopeless? Is it here that you would | look for happiness? Or would you not prefer to heal what has been |
| Tx:18.66 | Yet the means are tedious and very time consuming, for all of them | look to the future for release from a state of present unworthiness |
| Tx:18.78 | Should it not, then, be there that you would call on love to enter? | Look at the desert, dry and unproductive, scorched and joyless, which |
| Tx:18.88 | always depend on keeping it not seen. The body's eyes will never | look on it. Yet they will see what it dictates. |
| Tx:19.9 | For by withholding faith, you see what is unworthy of it and cannot | look beyond the barrier to what is joined with you. |
| Tx:19.30 | it is unbroken and forever changeless. This One can teach you how to | look on time differently and see beyond it, but not while you believe |
| Tx:19.34 | And yet you | look with Heaven's smile upon your lips and Heaven's blessing on your |
| Tx:19.35 | for you who were sightless have been given vision, and you can see. | Look not for what has been removed but for the glory that has been |
| Tx:19.36 | Look upon your Redeemer and behold what He would show you in each | |
| Tx:19.36 | For sin would keep you separate, but your Redeemer would have you | look upon each other as yourself. Your relationship is now a temple |
| Tx:19.39 | you owe to Him He asks but that you receive for Him. And when you | look with gentle graciousness upon each other, you are beholding Him. |
| Tx:19.45 | you well, as you know Heaven. No illusions stand between you now. | Look not upon the little wall of shadows. The sun has risen over it. |
| Tx:19.46 | Who you invited in and push Him out must produce conflict. As you | look upon the world, this little wish, uprooted and floating |
| Tx:19.49 | The attraction of guilt produces fear of love, for love would never | look on guilt at all. It is the nature of love to look upon only the |
| Tx:19.49 | love would never look on guilt at all. It is the nature of love to | look upon only the truth, for there it sees itself, with which it |
| Tx:19.49 | with which it would unite in holy union and completion. As love must | look past fear, so must fear see love not. For love contains the end |
| Tx:19.51 | fear is wholly absent from love's gentle perception. What love would | look upon is meaningless to fear and quite invisible. Relationships |
| Tx:19.51 | depends on which emotion was called on to send its messengers to | look upon it and return with word of what they saw. Fear's messengers |
| Tx:19.62 | It is only the messengers of fear that see the body, for they | look for what can suffer. Is it a sacrifice to be removed from what |
| Tx:19.64 | The end of guilt is in your hands to give. Would you stop now to | look for guilt in each other? |
| Tx:19.65 | Let me be to you the symbol of the end of guilt, and | look upon each other as you would look on me. Forgive me all the sins |
| Tx:19.65 | symbol of the end of guilt, and look upon each other as you would | look on me. Forgive me all the sins you think the Son of God |
| Tx:19.83 | be accomplished first? The body can but serve your purpose. As you | look upon it, so will it seem to be. Death, were it true, would be |
| Tx:19.85 | die, for only death could conquer life. And what but insanity could | look upon the defeat of God and think it real? |
| Tx:19.89 | Take this from me and | look upon it, judging it for me. Let me not see it as a sign of sin |
| Tx:19.93 | you have agreed never to let the fear of God be lifted so you could | look upon the face of Christ and join Him in His Father. |
| Tx:19.95 | And now you stand in terror before what you swore never to | look upon. Your eyes look down, remembering your promise to your |
| Tx:19.95 | stand in terror before what you swore never to look upon. Your eyes | look down, remembering your promise to your “friends.” The |
| Tx:19.95 | rise and bid you not to raise your eyes. For you realize that if you | look on this and let the veil be lifted, they will be gone forever. |
| Tx:19.96 | leave the world forever. This is the reestablishment of your will. | Look upon it open-eyed and you will nevermore believe that you are at |
| Tx:19.96 | and thoughts that come to you against your will. It is your will to | look on this. No mad desire, no trivial impulse to forget again, no |
| Tx:19.97 | through its help. It does not open up its secrets and bid you | look on them and go beyond them. It would not have you see its |
| Tx:19.97 | remains with you, and when you raise your eyes, you will be ready to | look on terror with no fear at all. But first lift up your eyes and |
| Tx:19.97 | look on terror with no fear at all. But first lift up your eyes and | look upon each other in innocence born of complete forgiveness of |
| Tx:19.98 | No one can | look upon the fear of God unterrified unless he has accepted the |
| Tx:19.98 | far unless his brother walked beside him. And no one would dare to | look on it without complete forgiveness of his brother in his heart. |
| Tx:19.99 | Nor is it possible to | look on this too soon. This is the place to which everyone must come |
| Tx:19.99 | you, you see its purpose. And it is here you choose whether to | look upon it or wander on, only to return and make the choice again. |
| Tx:19.100 | To | look upon the fear of God does need some preparation. Only the sane |
| Tx:19.100 | upon the fear of God does need some preparation. Only the sane can | look on stark insanity and raving madness with pity and compassion |
| Tx:19.100 | share in it does it seem fearful, and you do share in it until you | look upon each other with perfect faith and love and tenderness. |
| Tx:19.106 | mercy are yours to give. Into the hands that give the gift is given. | Look on your brother, and see in him the gift of God you would |
| Tx:19.107 | your brother here, as I freed you. Give him the self-same gift, nor | look upon him with condemnation of any kind. See him as guiltless as |
| Tx:19.107 | upon him with condemnation of any kind. See him as guiltless as I | look on you, and overlook the sins he thinks he sees within himself. |
| Tx:19.109 | Think carefully how you would | look upon the giver of this gift, for as you look on him, so will the |
| Tx:19.109 | carefully how you would look upon the giver of this gift, for as you | look on him, so will the gift itself appear to be. As he is seen as |
| Tx:20.4 | with him. The time of Easter is a time of joy and not of mourning. | Look on your risen Friend and celebrate his holiness along with me. |
| Tx:20.5 | Look upon all the trinkets made to hang upon the body or to cover it | |
| Tx:20.8 | him? Be you his friend for me that I may be forgiven and you may | look upon the Son of God as whole. But look you first upon the altar |
| Tx:20.8 | I may be forgiven and you may look upon the Son of God as whole. But | look you first upon the altar in your chosen home and see what you |
| Tx:20.8 | and it is separation that you offer me. And yet the thorns are gone. | Look you still closer at them now, and you will see your altar is no |
| Tx:20.9 | You | look still with the body's eyes, and they can see but thorns. Yet you |
| Tx:20.10 | This Easter | look with different eyes upon each other. You have forgiven me. And |
| Tx:20.11 | You have the vision now to | look past all illusions. It has been given you to see no thorns, no |
| Tx:20.11 | to peace. The fear of God is nothing to you now. Who is afraid to | look upon illusions, knowing his savior stands beside him? With him, |
| Tx:20.11 | his release. For you have asked for and been given the strength to | look upon this final obstacle and see no thorns nor nails to crucify |
| Tx:20.12 | have you ever failed entirely to hear. You heard but knew not how to | look nor where. And now you know. In you the knowledge lies, ready to |
| Tx:20.13 | of forgiveness. Let him be to you the savior from illusions, and | look on him with the new vision that looks upon the lilies and brings |
| Tx:20.19 | themselves to a world made fearful by their adjustments. And they | look out in sorrow from what is sad within and see the sadness there. |
| Tx:20.20 | Have you not wondered what the world is really like; how it would | look through happy eyes? The world you see is but a judgment on |
| Tx:20.20 | it was you who made it merciless, and now if mercilessness seems to | look back at you, it can be corrected. |
| Tx:20.23 | thing in all the seeing universe of truth you ask, “How shall I | look upon the Son of God?” |
| Tx:20.24 | the answer and adjust to it as if it were the truth? The world you | look on is the answer that it gave you, and you have given it power |
| Tx:20.27 | There is no fear in perfect love because it knows no sin and it must | look on others as on itself. Looking with charity within, what can it |
| Tx:20.27 | see safety, and the pure in heart see God within His Son and | look unto the Son to lead them to the Father. And where else would |
| Tx:20.32 | not salvation. And each one finds his savior when he is ready to | look upon the face of Christ and see Him sinless. |
| Tx:20.41 | use which serves the purpose of a holy relationship. And while you | look upon each other thus, the means and end have not been brought in |
| Tx:20.42 | You | look upon each holy instant as a different point in time. It never |
| Tx:20.42 | will give each other already given; the face of Christ you yet will | look upon already seen. |
| Tx:20.53 | rising to welcome what you really want. And from His holy temple, | look you not back on what you have awakened from. For no illusions |
| Tx:20.60 | the goal, and they are perfectly in line with it. Before we | look at them a little closer, remember that if you think they are |
| Tx:20.61 | It is impossible to see your brother as sinless and yet to | look upon him as a body. Is this not perfectly consistent with the |
| Tx:20.65 | undo your teaching. His vision cannot see the body because it cannot | look on sin. And thus it leads you to reality. Your holy brother, |
| Tx:20.66 | is the Holy Spirit's goal. The means is vision. For what the seeing | look upon is sinless. No one who loves can judge, and what he sees is |
| Tx:20.69 | Your brother's sinlessness is given you in shining light, to | look on with the Holy Spirit's vision and to rejoice in along with |
| Tx:20.70 | the vision which enables each one to see the body not. And as you | look upon each other, you will see an altar to your Father, holy as |
| Tx:20.70 | a better home, a safer shelter for God's Son? Why would you rather | look on it than on the truth? How can the engine of destruction be |
| Tx:20.72 | to overlook it in any form and seeing it everywhere, in everything. | Look through its eyes, and everything will stand condemned before |
| Tx:21.4 | be seen instead. It is not necessary to imagine what the world must | look like. It must be seen before you recognize it for what it is. |
| Tx:21.10 | somehow familiar, is an arc of golden light that stretches as you | look into a great and shining circle. And all the circle fills with |
| Tx:21.12 | they made will not withstand the memory of this song. And they will | look upon the vision of the Son of God, remembering who he is they |
| Tx:21.19 | to have it taken from him and be replaced with truth. And as you | look upon the change in him, it will be given you to see it in |
| Tx:21.20 | Perhaps you do not see the need for you to give this little offering. | Look closer, then, at what it is. And very simply see in it the whole |
| Tx:21.23 | comes of vision and suspended judgment. Then only is it possible to | look within and see what must be there plainly in sight and wholly |
| Tx:21.36 | for sin by choosing to let all limitations be removed. Desiring to | look upon their brothers in holiness, the power of belief and faith |
| Tx:21.36 | follow this decision are also born of faith. For all who choose to | look away from sin are given vision and are led to holiness. |
| Tx:21.40 | serve as means to help the blind to see. But in their seeing, they | look past it, as do you. The faith and the belief you gave it belongs |
| Tx:21.41 | correct, but this makes no one fearful. You are indeed afraid to | look within and see the sin you think is there. This you would not be |
| Tx:21.42 | Whom it cannot even see, it fears. Loudly the ego tells you not to | look inward, for if you do, your eyes will light on sin, and God will |
| Tx:21.42 | and God will strike you blind. This you believe, and so you do not | look. Yet this is not the ego's hidden fear, nor yours who serve it. |
| Tx:21.42 | proclamation, the ego is not certain it is so. Beneath your fear to | look within because of sin is yet another fear and one which makes |
| Tx:21.43 | sin has been already shaken, nor are you now entirely unwilling to | look within and see it not. |
| Tx:21.44 | yet born within you. Not wholly mad, you have been willing to | look on much of your insanity and recognize its madness. Your faith |
| Tx:21.44 | you. And yet this part with which you now identify is not afraid to | look upon itself. It knows no sin. How, otherwise, could it have been |
| Tx:21.46 | it would withdraw from you in rage at your “presumptuous” wish to | look within, you do not want. A few remaining trinkets still seem to |
| Tx:21.48 | Look gently on each other and remember the ego's weakness is revealed | |
| Tx:21.49 | if other things were equal. They are not equal. For what you | look for, you are far more likely to discover than what you would |
| Tx:21.60 | guilty and sees a sinless world? And who can see a sinful world and | look upon himself apart from it? Sin would maintain you must be |
| Tx:21.61 | Madness and reason see the same things, but it is certain that they | look upon them differently. |
| Tx:21.66 | would conceal, the Holy Spirit still holds out for everyone to | look upon with gladness. |
| Tx:21.78 | in the other three. And then it will be clear to you that, as you | look on the effects of sin in any form, all you need do is simply ask |
| Tx:21.82 | since it is this the world of sin denies. And therefore those who | look on sin are seeing the denial of the real world. Yet the last |
| Tx:21.84 | who sees himself as helpless. Desire what you will, and you will | look on it and think it real. No thought but has the power to release |
| Tx:22.1 | Rejoice whom God hath joined have come together and need no longer | look on sin apart. No two can look on sin together, for they could |
| Tx:22.1 | have come together and need no longer look on sin apart. No two can | look on sin together, for they could never see it in the same place |
| Tx:22.6 | Surely not you, whose sight is wholly independent of the eyes which | look upon the world. If this is not your vision, what can it show to |
| Tx:22.24 | Let us | look closer at the whole illusion that what you made has power to |
| Tx:22.25 | Behold the great projection, but | look on it with the decision that it must be healed and not with |
| Tx:22.26 | have been impossible. Salvation cannot be. It is impossible to | look upon your savior as your enemy and recognize him. Yet it is |
| Tx:22.26 | what He gave the Holy Spirit to give to you, He gave. Would you not | look upon the savior that has been given you? And would you not |
| Tx:22.28 | Heaven is the home of perfect purity, and God created it for you. | Look on your holy brother, sinless as yourself, and let him lead you |
| Tx:22.33 | cannot see beyond what they were made to see. And they were made to | look on error and not see past it. Theirs is indeed a strange |
| Tx:22.33 | a strange perception, for they can see only illusions, unable to | look beyond the granite block of sin and stopping at the outside form |
| Tx:22.41 | will see who walk with Him! And think how beautiful will each of you | look to the other! How happy you will be to be together after such a |
| Tx:22.50 | to overlook what seems to stand between you that makes it | look impenetrable and defends the illusion of its immovability. |
| Tx:22.59 | What can it be but universal blessing to | look on what your Father loves with charity? Extension of forgiveness |
| Tx:22.59 | to the other lights up the world. Be not concerned with darkness; | look away from it and toward each other. And let the darkness be |
| Tx:22.60 | at the mercy of countless attackers more powerful than you. Let us | look straight at how this error came about, for here lies buried the |
| Tx:22.64 | experience with him. What can this mean except your minds are one? | Look not with fear upon this happy fact and think not that it lays a |
| Tx:23.6 | Nothing around you but is part of you. | Look on it lovingly, and see the light of Heaven in it. So will you |
| Tx:23.14 | yourself in conflict with each other. And this occurs whenever you | look on anything that God created with anything but love. Conflict is |
| Tx:23.19 | to constitute an obstacle to reason and to truth. Let us, then, | look upon them calmly, that we may look beyond them, understanding |
| Tx:23.19 | and to truth. Let us, then, look upon them calmly, that we may | look beyond them, understanding what they are, not what they would |
| Tx:23.29 | taken from you by this enemy and hidden where you would not think to | look. He hid it in his body, making it the cover for his guilt, the |
| Tx:23.31 | make the ground beneath your feet seem solid. And it is here you | look for meaning. These are the laws you made for your salvation. |
| Tx:23.33 | fear, with ashen lips and sightless eyes, blinded and terrible to | look upon, is lifted to the throne of love, its dying conqueror, its |
| Tx:23.36 | do not believe these senseless laws nor act upon them. And when you | look at what they say, they cannot be believed. Brothers, you do |
| Tx:23.41 | his savagery with smiles as he attacks. Yet he will suffer and will | look on his intent in nightmares where the smiles are gone and where |
| Tx:23.46 | it will not return. There is no safety in a battleground. You can | look down on it in safety from above and not be touched. But from |
| Tx:23.51 | Be lifted up and from a higher place | look down upon it. From there will your perspective be quite |
| Tx:23.53 | See no one from the battleground, for there you | look on him from nowhere. You have no reference-point from where to |
| Tx:23.53 | look on him from nowhere. You have no reference-point from where to | look, where meaning can be given what you see. For only bodies could |
| Tx:24.9 | other if you chose to see no specialness of any kind between you? | Look fairly at whatever makes you give each other only partial |
| Tx:24.16 | Christ's vision is their “enemy,” for it sees not what they would | look upon, and it would show them that the specialness they think |
| Tx:24.32 | your eyes a little; see the savior God gave to you that you might | look on him and give him back his birthright. It is yours. |
| Tx:24.33 | calls to you from him to join His Will to save you both from hell. | Look on the print of nails upon his hands that he holds out for your |
| Tx:24.43 | him before it hated you. The sin its eyes behold in him and love to | look upon, it saw in you and looks on still with joy. Yet is it joy |
| Tx:24.43 | upon, it saw in you and looks on still with joy. Yet is it joy to | look upon decay and madness and believe this crumbling thing, with |
| Tx:24.46 | see their holiness. And He rejoices that these sights are yours to | look upon with Him and share His joy. His perfect lack of specialness |
| Tx:24.51 | absent from your own. It is His Will you share His love for you and | look upon yourself as lovingly as He conceived of you before the |
| Tx:24.53 | Look on your brother and behold in him the whole reversal of the laws | |
| Tx:24.54 | It is His sinlessness that eyes which see can | look upon. It is His loveliness they see in everything. And it is He |
| Tx:24.54 | upon. It is His loveliness they see in everything. And it is He they | look for everywhere and find no sight nor place nor time where He is |
| Tx:24.55 | holiness as what you want to see, and which you choose is yours to | look upon. Yet will you choose in countless situations and through |
| Tx:24.70 | Look at yourself, and you will see a body. Look at this body in a | |
| Tx:24.70 | Look at yourself, and you will see a body. | Look at this body in a different light, and it looks different. And |
| Tx:24.70 | means to make your wish come true. It gives the eyes with which you | look on it, the hands that feel it, and the ears with which you |
| Tx:24.72 | brother as he is in you. Their difference does not lie in how they | look, nor where they go, nor even what they do. They have a different |
| Tx:25.5 | How can you manifest the Christ in you except you | look on holiness and see Him there? Perception tells you, you are |
| Tx:25.5 | and you will believe that you are there. And every body that you | look upon reminds you of yourself—your sinfulness, your evil, and |
| Tx:25.18 | God's frame instead of yours, and you will see the masterpiece. | Look at its loveliness, and understand the Mind that thought it, not |
| Tx:25.18 | you saw it in a frame of death. God kept it safe that you might | look on it and see the holiness that He has given it. |
| Tx:25.19 | Mind shows him to you. He will step forth from darkness as you | look on him, and you will see the dark no more. The darkness touched |
| Tx:25.19 | darkness touched him not, nor you who brought him forth for you to | look upon. His sinlessness but pictures yours. His gentleness becomes |
| Tx:25.19 | yours. His gentleness becomes your strength, and both will gladly | look within and see the holiness that must be there because of what |
| Tx:25.34 | world you bring with you to all the weary eyes and tired hearts that | look on sin and beat its sad refrain. From you can come their rest. |
| Tx:25.34 | can come their rest. From you can rise a world they will rejoice to | look upon and where their hearts are glad. In you there is a vision |
| Tx:25.38 | and wish him dead? Christ stands before you both each time you | look on one another. He has not gone because your eyes are closed. |
| Tx:25.39 | you see by looking thus. It is the “enemy” confused with Christ you | look upon. And hate because there is no sin in him for you to see. |
| Tx:25.42 | your attack believe He hates you, thinking Heaven must be hell. | Look once again upon your brother, not without the understanding that |
| Tx:25.43 | The grace of God rests gently on forgiving eyes, and everything they | look on speaks of Him to the beholder. He can see no evil, nothing in |
| Tx:25.44 | they turn away from sunlight and the clarity it brings to what they | look upon. Dimness seems better—easier to see and better |
| Tx:25.44 | recognized. Somehow, the vague and more obscure seems easier to | look upon; less painful to the eyes than what is wholly clear and |
| Tx:25.45 | Will you behold your brother? God is glad to have you | look on him. He does not will your savior be unrecognized by you. Nor |
| Tx:25.55 | is equally insane within the sight of love, whose gentle eyes would | look beyond the madness and rest peacefully on truth. Each sees a |
| Tx:25.60 | the total cost of any gain at all. You who believe that God is mad, | look carefully at this and understand that it must be that either God |
| Tx:25.69 | And what escape has He for them except a door to hell that seems to | look like Heaven's gate? |
| Tx:25.75 | not perceive in every circumstance that this is true. Nor need you | look to your experience within the world, which is but shadows of all |
| Tx:26.1 | of a wish to see a little part of him and sacrifice the rest. | Look at the world, and you will see nothing attached to anything |
| Tx:26.14 | his innocence. Would it be fair to punish him because you will not | look at what is there to see? Each time you keep a problem for |
| Tx:26.33 | long since gone. You think you live in what is past. Each thing you | look upon you saw but for an instant, long ago before its unreality |
| Tx:26.43 | nor any need that you repeat again a journey that was over long ago. | Look gently on each other and behold the world in which perception of |
| Tx:26.76 | a denial of the fact that consequence and cause must come as one. | Look not to time but to the little space between you still to be |
| Tx:26.77 | attack His chosen home and battle with His host. Regard him gently. | Look with loving eyes on him who carries Christ within him, that you |
| Tx:27.2 | yourself to be the sign that he has lost his innocence and need but | look on you to realize that he has been condemned. And what to you |
| Tx:27.6 | and every tear is wiped away in laughter and in love. And he will | look on his forgiveness there and with healed eyes will look beyond |
| Tx:27.6 | And he will look on his forgiveness there and with healed eyes will | look beyond it to the innocence that he beholds in you. Here is the |
| Tx:27.49 | it. The world of accusation is replaced by one in which all eyes | look lovingly upon the Friend who brought them their release. And |
| Tx:27.63 | Now you are being shown you can escape. All that is needed is you | look upon the problem as it is, and not the way that you have set it |
| Tx:27.66 | the effects which then bear witness to the cause and not themselves. | Look, then, beyond effects. It is not here the cause of suffering and |
| Tx:27.67 | it is this the world bears witness to. Seek not another cause nor | look among the mighty legions of its witnesses for its undoing. They |
| Tx:27.67 | on your allegiance. What conceals the truth is not where you should | look to find the truth. The witnesses to sin all stand within one |
| Tx:27.77 | is its main concern. Its comfort is its guiding rule. It tries to | look for pleasure and avoid the things that would be hurtful. Above |
| Tx:27.81 | appear to be the cause of what it is you do? Then let us merely | look upon the dream's beginning, for the part you see is but the |
| Tx:27.82 | We can remember this if we but | look directly at their cause. And we will see the grounds for |
| Tx:27.85 | entirely? He bids you bring each terrible effect to Him that you may | look together on its foolish cause and laugh with Him a while. You |
| Tx:28.51 | a dream, your ears bear witness to illusion. They were made to | look upon a world that is not there, to hear the voices that can make |
| Tx:28.53 | and no darkened tombs where terror rises from the bones of death. | Look at the little gap, and you behold the innocence and emptiness of |
| Tx:28.54 | to be what it is not. It does not seek to make of pain a joy and | look for lasting pleasure in the dust. It does not tell you what its |
| Tx:29.11 | as yet perceived. And its effects are there, though not yet seen. | Look inward now, and you will not behold a reason for regret but |
| Tx:29.13 | Him. He has laid them at your feet and asks you now that you will | look on them and take them for your own. He needs your help in giving |
| Tx:29.14 | see your Guest, but you can see the gifts He brought. And when you | look on them, you will believe His Presence must be there. For what |
| Tx:29.19 | loss you celebrate when you behold the body as a thing you love, or | look upon it as a thing you hate. For if He be the sum of everything, |
| Tx:29.46 | yourself. The search implies you are not whole within and fear to | look upon your devastation and prefer to seek outside yourself for |
| Tx:29.48 | within, and your completion lies in Him. No idol takes His place. | Look not to idols. Do not seek outside yourself. Let us forget the |
| Tx:29.61 | wish—to let himself fall lower than the stones upon the ground and | look to idols that they raise him up? Hear then your story in the |
| Tx:30.23 | I want another way to | look at this. |
| Tx:30.26 | Perhaps there is another way to | look at this. What can I lose by asking? |
| Tx:30.35 | Look once again upon your enemy, the one you chose to hate instead of | |
| Tx:30.37 | with him, he is healed. And now is God forgiven, for you chose to | look upon your brother as a friend. |
| Tx:30.40 | a form you like. This is the purpose of an idol—that you will not | look beyond it to the source of the belief that you are incomplete. |
| Tx:30.53 | could it be but an illusion, making things appear like to itself? | Look calmly at its toys and understand that they are idols which but |
| Tx:30.55 | that no one ever did, to overlook what is not there, and not to | look upon the unreal as reality. You are but asked to let your will |
| Tx:30.63 | they stand already at the edge of the real world. Perhaps they still | look back and think they see an idol that they want. Yet has their |
| Tx:30.63 | joined their hands, it was Christ's hand they took, and they will | look on Him Whose hand they hold. The face of Christ is looked upon |
| Tx:30.65 | is passing from the world. And with it goes all hatred and all fear. | Look back no longer, for what lies ahead is all you ever wanted in |
| Tx:30.66 | Do not | look back except in honesty. And when an idol tempts you, think of |
| Tx:30.68 | he will pay the cost as well as you. For he will be delayed when you | look back, and you will not perceive Whose loving hand you hold. Look |
| Tx:30.68 | you look back, and you will not perceive Whose loving hand you hold. | Look forward, then, and walk in confidence with happy hearts that |
| Tx:30.75 | the meaning of a fixed belief that some appearances are harder to | look past than others are. It always means you think forgiveness must |
| Tx:30.76 | an image of yourself that is not whole and will remain afraid to | look within and find escape from every idol there. Salvation rests on |
| Tx:30.77 | Look on your brother with the willingness to see him as he is. And do | |
| Tx:30.81 | Look on your brother with this hope in you, and you will understand | |
| Tx:30.87 | dreams are but the senseless, isolated scripts you write in sleep. | Look not to separate dreams for meaning. Only dreams of pardon can be |
| Tx:30.93 | to you to see in happy form, devoid of fear. It will be given you to | look upon your brother thus. But not while you would have it |
| Tx:30.93 | and whole. The Christ in him is perfect. Is it this that you would | look upon? Then let there be no dreams about him which you would |
| Tx:30.94 | This will you | look upon when you decide there is not one appearance you would hold |
| Tx:31.10 | when he learns his innocence. For hate must father fear and | look upon its father as itself. How wrong are you who fail to hear |
| Tx:31.11 | is the proof of what you learned. Its outcome is the world you | look upon. |
| Tx:31.14 | Nor are they different. Yet must we see them both before you can | look past them to the one alternative that is a different choice. But |
| Tx:31.36 | in the world which seems to point to still another road. No longer | look for hope where there is none. Make fast your learning now, and |
| Tx:31.47 | fear so devastating that the face which smiles above it must forever | look away, lest it perceive the treachery it hides. The lesson |
| Tx:31.47 | The lesson teaches this: “I am the thing you made of me, and as you | look on me, you stand condemned because of what I am.” On this |
| Tx:31.57 | it as you see yourself. The concept of the self embraces all you | look upon, and nothing is outside of this perception. If you can be |
| Tx:31.60 | am and therefore do not know what I am doing, where I am, or how to | look upon the world or on myself. |
| Tx:31.65 | truth about yourself must really be. It makes no difference what you | look upon nor what you choose to feel or think or wish. For God |
| Tx:31.72 | with you, so that your fearful concept of yourself may change. And | look upon the good in him that you may not be frightened by your |
| Tx:31.73 | to use, and you can see yourself another way. Would you not rather | look upon yourself as needed for salvation of the world instead of as |
| Tx:31.74 | hides it from your sight. All things you see are images because you | look on them as through a barrier which dims your sight and warps |
| Tx:31.74 | most, you glimpse a shadow of what lies beyond. At least, you merely | look on darkness and perceive the terrified imaginings that come from |
| Tx:31.77 | ones whom God has given each of you to save are everyone you meet or | look upon, not knowing who they are, all those you saw an instant and |
| Tx:31.78 | him apart from yours? For holiness is seen through holy eyes that | look upon the innocence within and thus expect to see it everywhere. |
| Tx:31.78 | to see it everywhere. And so they call it forth in everyone they | look upon that he may be what they expect of him. This is the |
| Tx:31.79 | but represent a wish, because it has no power to create. Yet it can | look with love or look with hate, depending only on the simple choice |
| Tx:31.79 | because it has no power to create. Yet it can look with love or | look with hate, depending only on the simple choice of whether you |
| Tx:31.80 | serves a wholly open mind, unclouded by old concepts and prepared to | look on only what the present holds. It cannot judge because it does |
| Tx:31.92 | You are as God created you, and so is every living thing you | look upon, regardless of the images you see. What you behold as |
| Tx:31.93 | with him, and through the Christ in you unveil his eyes and let him | look upon the Christ in him. My brothers in salvation, do not fail to |
| W1:1.1 | Now | look slowly around you, and practice applying this idea very |
| W1:1.3 | Then | look farther away from your immediate area, and apply the idea to a |
| W1:4.1 | you think are “bad.” You will find, if you train yourself to | look at your thoughts, that they represent such a mixture that, in a |
| W1:7.8 | first time idea is not really so strange as it may sound at first. | Look at a cup, for example. |
| W1:7.10 | Look about you. This is equally true of whatever you look at. | |
| W1:7.10 | Look about you. This is equally true of whatever you | look at. Acknowledge this by applying the idea for today |
| W1:11.2 | and repeat the idea slowly to yourself. Then open your eyes and | look about, near or far, up or down—anywhere. During the minute or |
| W1:12.2 | These exercises are done with eyes open. | Look around you, this time quite slowly. Try to pace yourself so that |
| W1:12.3 | As you | look about you, say to yourself: |
| W1:13.4 | closed, repeat today's idea to yourself. Then open your eyes and | look about you slowly, saying: |
| W1:13.6 | Repeat this statement to yourself as you | look about. Then close your eyes and conclude with: |
| W1:15.6 | of today's idea. It is necessary, however, to continue to | look at each subject while you repeat the idea to yourself. The idea |
| W1:17.4 | Then | look about you, resting your glance on each thing that catches your |
| W1:18.3 | Selecting subjects for the application of the idea randomly, | look at each one long enough to say: |
| W1:22.3 | Look at the world about you at least five times today, for at least a | |
| W1:23.6 | five practice periods are required in applying today's idea. As you | look about you, repeat the idea slowly to yourself and then close |
| W1:28.5 | just that table if you could withdraw all your own ideas from it and | look upon it with a completely open mind. It has something to show |
| W1:29.3 | Try then today to begin to learn how to | look on all things with love, appreciation, and open-mindedness. You |
| W1:30.1 | From this idea will the world open up before you, and you will | look upon it and see in it what you have never seen before. Nor will |
| W1:31.2 | to five minutes for each of them are recommended. During that time, | look about you slowly while repeating the idea two or three times. |
| W1:32.3 | at the world you see as outside yourself. Then close your eyes and | look around your inner world. Try to treat them both as equally as |
| W1:35.4 | or debased. All of them are equally unreal because you do not | look upon yourself through the eyes of holiness. |
| W1:36.3 | the idea for today several times slowly. Then open your eyes and | look quite slowly about you, applying the idea specifically to |
| W1:36.6 | the shorter exercise periods, close your eyes and repeat the idea; | look about you as you repeat it again; and conclude with one more |
| W1:42.7 | close your eyes, repeat the idea once more, and then continue to | look for related thoughts in your mind. |
| W1:45.3 | real thoughts? Today we will attempt to reach them. We will have to | look for them in your mind because that is where they are. They must |
| W1:51.3 | what I see all the meaning it has for me. I have judged everything I | look upon. And it is this and only this that I see. This is not |
| W1:52.3 | [7] I see only the past. As I | look about, I condemn the world I look upon. I call this seeing. I |
| W1:52.3 | [7] I see only the past. As I look about, I condemn the world I | look upon. I call this seeing. I hold the past against everyone and |
| W1:52.3 | I see. There will be no past and therefore no “enemies.” And I will | look with love on all that I failed to see before. |
| W1:52.4 | the past. What, then, can I see as it is? Let me remember that I | look on the past to prevent the present from dawning on my mind. Let |
| W1:53.2 | as well as insane ones. I can therefore see a real world if I | look to my real thoughts as my guide for seeing. |
| W1:54.3 | I did not think, I would not exist, because life is thought. Let me | look on the world I see as the representation of my own state of |
| W1:54.6 | the shared nature of my thoughts, I am determined to see. I would | look upon the witnesses that show me the thinking of the world has |
| W1:54.6 | laughter to replace weeping, and abundance to replace loss. I would | look upon the real world, and let it teach me that my will and the |
| W1:55.4 | and safety and joy. It is this I choose to see in place of what I | look on now. |
| W1:56.3 | truth, vision will surely be given me. And with this vision, I will | look upon the world and upon myself with charity and love. |
| W1:56.4 | I would let the door behind this world be opened for me that I may | look past it to the world that reflects the Love of God. |
| W1:56.5 | and in everything forever. And we who are part of Him will yet | look past all appearances and recognize the truth beyond them all. |
| W1:57.4 | that the world is really a place where he can be set free. I would | look upon the world as it is, and see it as a place where the Son of |
| W1:57.6 | that this peace comes from deep within myself. The world I | look upon has taken on the light of my forgiveness and shines |
| W1:59.3 | [42] God is my strength. Vision is His gift. Let me not | look to my own eyes to see today. Let me be willing to exchange my |
| W1:60.4 | [48] There is nothing to fear. How safe the world will | look to me when I can see it! It will not look anything like what I |
| W1:60.4 | How safe the world will look to me when I can see it! It will not | look anything like what I imagine I see now. Everyone and everything |
| W1:60.6 | As I forgive, His love reminds me that His Son is sinless. And as I | look upon the world with the vision He has given me, I remember that |
| W1:64.1 | taking on a physical appearance. It is this which the body's eyes | look upon. |
| W1:64.11 | At other times keep your eyes open after reviewing the thoughts and | look slowly and unselectively about you, telling yourself: |
| W1:65.14 | close your eyes as you practice, and sometimes keep them open and | look about you. It is what you see now that will be totally changed |
| W1:69.1 | No one can | look upon what your grievances conceal. Because your grievances are |
| W1:69.3 | light in us and holding it up for everyone who searches with us to | look upon and rejoice. |
| W1:69.9 | you are not searching for it alone and that you do know where to | look for it. Say, then: |
| W1:73.5 | this world reflects your will, and so it must be in you that we will | look for it. Your picture of the world can only mirror what is |
| W1:73.5 | darkness can be found without. Grievances darken your mind, and you | look out on a darkened world. Forgiveness lifts the darkness, |
| W1:73.5 | Forgiveness lifts the darkness, reasserts your will, and lets you | look upon a world of light. |
| W1:73.11 | is now restored to his awareness. He is willing this very day to | look upon the light in him and be saved. |
| W1:75.7 | concept you have made. You have forgiven the world today. You can | look upon it now as if you never saw it before. You do not know yet |
| W1:75.10 | because you trust in Him. Tell yourself you wait in certainty to | look upon the world He promised you. From this time forth you will |
| W1:76.2 | it. The idea for today tells you once again how simple is salvation. | Look for it where it waits for you, and there it will be found. Look |
| W1:76.2 | Look for it where it waits for you, and there it will be found. | Look nowhere else, for it is nowhere else. |
| W1:78.2 | Today we go beyond the grievances to | look upon the miracle instead. We will reverse the way you see by not |
| W1:78.4 | God's Son. We will not let ourselves be blind to him; we will not | look upon our grievances. So is the seeing of the world reversed, as |
| W1:78.4 | upon our grievances. So is the seeing of the world reversed, as we | look out toward truth, away from fear. |
| W1:78.5 | used as target for your grievances and lay the grievances aside and | look at him. Someone perhaps you fear and even hate; someone you |
| W1:78.8 | Him Who knows this Son of God in his reality and truth that we may | look on him a different way and see our savior shining in the light |
| W1:78.11 | Be very quiet now and | look upon your shining savior. No dark grievances obscure the sight |
| W1:84.4 | Let me not see an illusion of myself in this. As I | look on this, let me remember my Creator. My Creator did not create |
| W1:85.5 | not left its Source, and so it cannot have left my mind. I will not | look for it outside myself. It is not found outside and then brought |
| W1:85.7 | Let this not tempt me to | look away from me for my salvation. I will not let this interfere |
| W1:86.7 | I am choosing between misperception and salvation as I | look on this. If I see grounds for grievances in this, I will not see |
| W1:87.2 | be my guide today. I will follow it where it leads me, and I will | look only on what it shows me. This day I will experience the peace |
| W1:87.4 | to see. You stand with me in light, [name]. In the light this will | look different. |
| W1:99.5 | of your belief that time is real. Unshaken does the Holy Spirit | look on what you see—on sin and pain and death, on grief and |
| W1:99.10 | them real by hiding them from Him. Let in the light, and you will | look upon no obstacle to what He wills for you. Open your secrets to |
| W1:100.7 | You are God's messenger today. You bring His happiness to all you | look upon, His peace to everyone who looks on you and sees His |
| W1:100.9 | it now. For this you came. Let this one be the day that you succeed! | Look deep within you, undismayed by all the little thoughts and |
| W1:100.10 | He will be there. And you can reach Him now. What could you rather | look upon in place of Him Who waits that you may look on Him? What |
| W1:100.10 | could you rather look upon in place of Him Who waits that you may | look on Him? What little thought has power to hold you back? What |
| W1:107.14 | And yet you will be glad to | look again upon this world. For you will bring with you the promise |
| W1:109.1 | dreams. We ask for safety and for happiness, although we seem to | look on danger and on sorrow. And we have the thought that will |
| W1:121.11 | Now close your eyes and see him in your mind and | look at him a while. Try to perceive some light in him somewhere—a |
| W1:121.11 | brightness shining through the ugly picture which you hold of him. | Look at this picture till you see a light somewhere within it, and |
| W1:121.12 | Look at this changed perception for a while, and turn your mind to | |
| W1:122.3 | the veil be lifted up which hides the face of Christ from those who | look with unforgiving eyes upon the world. It lets you recognize the |
| W1:122.8 | Open your eyes today, and | look upon a happy world of safety and of peace. Forgiveness is the |
| W1:124.4 | minds contain His thoughts; our eyes behold His loveliness in all we | look upon. Today we see only the loving and the lovable. |
| W1:124.10 | in the glass this holy half an hour will hold out to you to | look upon yourself. When you are ready, you will find it there within |
| W1:124.11 | Perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you will | look into this glass and understand the sinless light you see belongs |
| W1:124.11 | the sinless light you see belongs to you, the loveliness you | look on is your own. Count this half hour as your gift to God, in |
| W1:129.5 | stand an instant's space away from timelessness. Here can you but | look forward, never back to see again the world you do not want. Here |
| W1:130.1 | see a world his mind has not accorded value. And no one can fail to | look upon what he believes he wants. |
| W1:130.10 | tangible perception and in truth. You will not doubt what you will | look upon. For though it is perception, it is not the kind of seeing |
| W1:131.1 | all about you while you seek for goals that cannot be achieved. You | look for permanence in the impermanent, for love where there is none, |
| W1:131.3 | for nothingness, and while you seek for life you ask for death. You | look for safety and security while in your heart you pray for danger |
| W1:132.4 | And what you behold upon it are your wishes, acted out so you can | look on them and think them real. |
| W1:132.14 | briefly laid upon a dying world. Release your mind, and you will | look upon a world released. |
| W1:133.10 | content to be deceived. Its goals are obvious to anyone who cares to | look for them. Here is deception doubled, for the one who is deceived |
| W1:134.3 | truth and not illusions. You conceive of pardon as a vain attempt to | look past what is there; to overlook the truth in an unfounded effort |
| W1:134.4 | Because you think your sins are real, you | look on pardon as deception. For it is impossible to think of sin as |
| W1:135.11 | truth. This is the body's only real defense. Yet is this where you | look for its defense? You offer it protection of a kind from which it |
| W1:137.4 | been. Yet eyes accustomed to illusions must be shown that what they | look upon is false. So healing, never needed by the truth, must |
| W1:139.9 | Fail not your brothers, or you fail yourself. | Look lovingly on them that they may know that they are part of you |
| W1:151.10 | pain, disaster, suffering, and loss. He gives you vision which can | look beyond these grim appearances and can behold the gentle face of |
| W1:153.9 | We | look past dreams today and recognize that we need no defense because |
| W1:153.21 | need to give Him in return. You lay aside but what was never real to | look on Christ and see His sinlessness. |
| W1:155.3 | today. The mad illusion will remain awhile in evidence for those to | look upon who chose to come and have not yet rejoiced to find they |
| W1:155.3 | they need a teacher who perceives their madness, but who still can | look beyond illusion to the simple truth in them. |
| W1:155.6 | they hear you speak of nor illusion which you bring their eyes to | look on and their minds to grasp. Now can the truth, which walks |
| W1:155.13 | Your feet are safely set upon the way that leads the world to God. | Look not to ways which seem to lead you elsewhere. Dreams are not a |
| W1:157.5 | from your fingertips to those you touch and blesses those you | look upon. A vision reaches everyone you meet, and everyone you think |
| W1:158.7 | Christ's vision has one law. It does not | look upon a body and mistake it for the Son whom God created. It |
| W1:160.6 | can he find? A stranger to himself can find no home wherever he may | look, for he has made return impossible. His way is lost except a |
| W1:160.10 | He has not forgotten you. But you will not remember Him until you | look on all as He does. Who denies his brother is denying Him and |
| W1:161.2 | condition of the mind. But part of it is now unnatural. It does not | look on everything as one. It sees instead but fragments of the |
| W1:161.6 | easily become fear's symbols. You have many times been urged to | look beyond the body, for its sight presents the symbol of love's |
| W1:162.2 | to its call. And those who live and hear this sound will never | look on death. |
| W1:163.8 | be illusion. This the stand we take today. And it is given us to | look past death and see the life beyond. |
| W1:163.9 | Father, bless our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would | look upon the glorious reflection of Your love which shines in |
| W1:164.1 | the only time there is. And so today, this instant, now, we come to | look upon what is forever there—not in our sight, but in the eyes |
| W1:166.5 | with him, all unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But he will not | look at what is given him. He wanders on, aware of the futility he |
| W1:166.8 | upon your shoulder and perceive His gentle hand directing you to | look upon your gifts. How could you then proclaim your poverty in |
| W1:166.14 | Your sighs will now betray the hopes of those who | look to you for their release. Your tears are theirs. If you are |
| W1:169.13 | it offers everyone. We do not ask for the unaskable. We do not | look beyond what grace can give. For this we can give in the grace |
| W1:170.8 | Today we | look upon this cruel god dispassionately. And we note that though his |
| W1:170.12 | The choice you make today is certain. For you | look for the last time upon this bit of carven stone you made and |
| W1:181.1 | that he is limited by what you have perceived in him. You do not | look beyond his errors. Rather, they are magnified, becoming blocks |
| W1:181.5 | We lay these pointless limitations by a little while. We do not | look to past beliefs, and what we will believe will not intrude upon |
| W1:181.5 | upon us now. We enter in the time of practicing with one intent—to | look upon the sinlessness within. We recognize that we have lost this |
| W1:181.7 | It is not this that I would | look upon. I trust my brothers, who are one with me. |
| W1:181.9 | Nor do we ask for fantasies. For what we seek to | look upon is really there. And as our focus goes beyond mistakes, we |
| W1:181.10 | becomes the proof that we are sinless. And our love for everyone we | look upon attests to our remembrance of the holy Self Which knows no |
| W1:181.10 | for this remembrance as we turn our minds to practicing today. We | look neither ahead nor backwards. We look straight into the present. |
| W1:181.10 | minds to practicing today. We look neither ahead nor backwards. We | look straight into the present. And we give our trust to the |
| W1:185.2 | said these words. But few indeed have meant them. You have but to | look upon the world you see around you to be sure how very few they |
| W1:185.10 | uncertain in your purpose and unsure of what you wanted, where to | look for it, and where to turn for help in the attempt. Help has been |
| W1:187.3 | this is done until you see the miracles it brings to everyone you | look upon. Herein is the idea of giving clarified and given meaning. |
| W1:187.9 | altar, with the ones you offer him beside them. Who could fear to | look upon such lovely holiness? The great illusion of the fear of God |
| W1:187.9 | of God diminishes to nothingness before the purity that you will | look on here. Be not afraid to look. The blessedness you will behold |
| W1:187.9 | before the purity that you will look on here. Be not afraid to | look. The blessedness you will behold will take away all thought of |
| W1:187.10 | and give as we receive. The Name of God is on our lips. And as we | look within, we see the purity of Heaven shine in our reflection of |
| W1:187.11 | God in everyone. We would not have it be withheld from anything we | look upon. And to ensure this holy sight is ours, we offer it to |
| W1:188.2 | deny the presence of what he beholds in him? It is not difficult to | look within, for there all vision starts. There is no sight, be it of |
| W1:189.1 | by the world. Yet you have eyes to see it. It is there for you to | look upon. It was not placed in you to be kept hidden from your |
| W1:189.4 | and innocence they see surrounding them, the joy with which they | look out from the endless wells of joy within. What they have felt in |
| W1:189.4 | the endless wells of joy within. What they have felt in them they | look upon and see its sure reflection everywhere. |
| W1:189.5 | learn and do not let your mind forget this law of seeing: you will | look upon that which you feel within. If hatred finds a place within |
| W1:189.5 | bony fingers. If you feel the Love of God within you, you | look out upon a world of mercy and of love. |
| W1:189.10 | ways are not our own, for they belong to You. And it is unto You we | look for them. Our hands are open to receive Your gifts. We have no |
| W1:191.2 | what you see? Deny your own Identity, and this is what remains. You | look on chaos and proclaim it as yourself. There is no sight that |
| W1:191.3 | dust against the legions of your enemies. Deny your own Identity and | look on evil, sin, and death. And watch despair snatch from your |
| W1:191.9 | And in that thought is everything you | look on wholly changed. |
| W1:191.12 | is the light that saves the world. Do not withhold salvation longer. | Look about the world, and see the suffering there. Is not your heart |
| W1:192.6 | intended for His holy Son. Only forgiveness can persuade the Son to | look again upon his holiness. With anger gone, you will indeed |
| W1:193.15 | apart from healing. Let us give them all to Him Who knows the way to | look upon them so that they will disappear. Truth is His message; |
| W1:193.17 | time. This is the lesson God would have you learn: there is a way to | look on everything that lets it be to you another step to Him and to |
| W1:195.1 | Gratitude is a lesson hard to learn for those who | look upon the world amiss. The most that they can do is see |
| W1:198.7 | and to his Father. You may think They have accepted, but if you will | look again upon the place where you beheld Their blood, you will |
| W1:200.3 | than to seek and seek and seek again for hell, when you have but to | look with open eyes to find that Heaven lies before you, through a |
| W1:200.7 | as he looks on it, the world can but deceive? Yet can he learn to | look on it another way and find the peace of God. |
| W1:200.10 | of hopelessness you sought before. Now are they underfoot. And you | look up and on toward Heaven, with the body's eyes but serving for an |
| W2:I.6 | world of sorrow in exchange for its replacement given us by You. We | look not backward now. We look ahead and fix our eyes upon the |
| W2:I.6 | for its replacement given us by You. We look not backward now. We | look ahead and fix our eyes upon the journey's end. Accept these |
| W2:223.2 | of our mistakes. For we who are Your holy Son are sinless. We would | look upon our sinlessness, for guilt proclaims that we are not Your |
| W2:229.1 | I will turn away no longer from the holy face of Christ. And what I | look upon attests the truth of the Identity I sought to lose, but |
| W2:235.1 | I need but | look upon all things that seem to hurt me and with perfect certainty |
| W2:240.1 | that you have seen yourself as you could never be and therefore | look upon a world which is impossible. Not one thing in this world is |
| W2:243.1 | of judgment which I cannot make. Thus do I free myself and what I | look upon, to be in peace as God created us. |
| W2:247.1 | simple truth and I am healed completely. Brother, come and let me | look on you. Your loveliness reflects my own. Your sinlessness is |
| W2:247.2 | So would I | look on everyone today. My brothers are Your Sons. Your Fatherhood |
| W2:254.2 | words or actions. When such thoughts occur, we quietly step back and | look at them, and then we let them go. We do not want what they would |
| W2:260.1 | arise again before Christ's vision, through which I would | look upon my brothers and myself today. |
| W2:262.1 | Father, You have one Son. And it is he that I would | look upon today. He is Your one creation. Why should I perceive a |
| W2:263.1 | Your Spirit entered into it; Your Love gave life to it. And would I | look upon what You created as if it could be made sinful? I would not |
| W2:263.2 | And while we still remain outside the gate of Heaven, let us | look on all we see through holy vision and the eyes of Christ. Let |
| W2:264.1 | place I see myself, and everywhere I go. You are in all the things I | look upon, the sounds I hear, and every hand that reaches for my own. |
| W2:265.2 | In quiet would I | look upon the world, which but reflects Your thoughts and mine as |
| W2:266.1 | holy Voice to me. In them are You reflected, and in them does Christ | look back upon me from my Self. Let not Your Son forget Your holy |
| W2:266.2 | the world with those who point to Him and given us the sight to | look on them? |
| W2:269.1 | which You have chosen to become the way to show me my mistakes and | look beyond them. It is given me to find a new perception through the |
| W2:269.1 | everyone shows me the face of Christ and teaches me that what I | look upon belongs to me, that nothing is except Your holy Son. |
| W2:269.2 | Today our sight is blessed indeed. We share one vision as we | look upon the face of Him Whose Self is ours. We are one because of |
| W2:WIC.5 | reached at last? So therefore let us seek to find Christ's face and | look on nothing else. As we behold His glory will we know we have no |
| W2:271.1 | Each day, each hour, every instant, I am choosing what I want to | look upon, the sounds I want to hear, the witnesses to what I want to |
| W2:271.1 | witnesses to what I want to be the truth for me. Today I choose to | look upon what Christ would have me see, to listen to God's Voice, |
| W2:271.2 | memory to be restored to me. And this I choose to be what I would | look upon today. |
| W2:289.2 | Father, let me not | look upon a past that is not there. For You have offered me Your own |
| W2:290.1 | Unless I | look upon what is not there, my present happiness is all I see. Eyes |
| W2:290.1 | real an instant longer. This the day I seek my present happiness and | look on nothing else except the thing I seek. |
| W2:WIRW.3 | lurks in anything it sees, for it is kind and only kindness does it | look upon. |
| W2:WIRW.5 | instant is our goal, for it contains the memory of God. And as we | look upon a world forgiven, it is He Who calls to us and comes to |
| W2:291.1 | name, both for myself and for the world as well. What loveliness we | look upon today! What holiness we see surrounding us! And it is given |
| W2:295.2 | and thus allow the Holy Spirit's love to bless all things that I may | look upon, that His forgiving love may rest on me. |
| W2:301.2 | God's world is happy. Those who | look on it can only add their joy to it and bless it as a cause of |
| W2:301.2 | But we have learned the world we saw was false, and we will | look upon God's world today. |
| W2:302.1 | see that darkness is our own imagining and light is there for us to | look upon. Christ's vision changes darkness into light, for fear must |
| W2:302.1 | when love has come. Let me forgive Your holy world today that I may | look upon its holiness and understand it but reflects my own. |
| W2:304.1 | vision that I use. Perception is a mirror, not a fact. And what I | look on is my state of mind reflected outward. I would bless the |
| W2:304.1 | the world by looking on it through the eyes of Christ. And I will | look upon the certain signs that all my sins have been forgiven me. |
| W2:309.1 | change in this. For to deny my Father's Will is to deny my own. To | look within is but to find my will as God created it and as it is. I |
| W2:309.1 | is but to find my will as God created it and as it is. I fear to | look within because I think I made another will which is not true and |
| W2:312.1 | follows judgment. Having judged, you therefore see what you would | look upon. For vision merely serves to offer you what you would have. |
| W2:312.1 | Holy Spirit's purpose as his goal for seeing. And he cannot fail to | look upon what Christ would have him see and share Christ's love for |
| W2:312.2 | I have no purpose for today except to | look upon a liberated world, set free from all the judgments I have |
| W2:313.1 | wherever it is asked. This vision is Your gift. The eyes of Christ | look on a world forgiven. In His sight are all its sins forgiven, for |
| W2:313.1 | perception come to me that I may waken from the dream of guilt and | look within upon my sinlessness which You have kept completely |
| W2:321.1 | not understand what made me free nor what my freedom is nor where to | look to find it. Father, I have searched in vain until I heard Your |
| W2:331.2 | shows us that God's Will is one and that we share it. Let us | look upon the holy sights forgiveness shows today that we may find |
| W2:335.1 | to be impelled by outside happenings. I choose to see what I would | look upon, and this I see and only this. My brother's sinlessness |
| W2:335.1 | I see and only this. My brother's sinlessness shows me that I would | look upon my own. And I will see it, having chosen to behold my |
| W2:336.1 | the truth. Its lilies shine into the mind and call it to return and | look within, to find what it has vainly sought without. For here and |
| W2:336.2 | wipe away my dreams of separation and of sin. Then let me, Father, | look within and find Your promise of my sinlessness is kept; Your |
| W2:WIM.3 | is the home of miracles. The eyes of Christ deliver them to all they | look upon in mercy and in love. Perception stands corrected in His |
| W2:346.1 | aside today. I do not seek the things of time, and so I will not | look upon them. What I seek today transcends all laws of time and |
| W2:WAI.3 | is redeemed. And this, our gift, is therefore given us. We | look on everyone as brothers and perceive all things as kindly and as |
| W2:357.1 | me patiently to hear Your Word and give as I receive. And as I | look upon Your Son today, I hear Your Voice instructing me to find |
| M:2.1 | have been assigned to each of God's teachers, and they will begin to | look for him as soon as he has answered the Call. They were chosen |
| M:3.1 | —to make of the relationship a holy relationship in which both can | look upon the Son of God as sinless. There is no one from whom a |
| M:4.1 | surface traits of God's teachers are not at all alike. They do not | look alike to the body's eyes, they come from vastly different |
| M:4.3 | all things safe. It is through this Power that the teachers of God | look on a forgiven world. |
| M:4.17 | defenses seem to be. Yet when the teacher of God finally agrees to | look past them, he finds nothing was there. Slowly at first, he lets |
| M:8.1 | the mental balance. What the body's eyes behold is only conflict. | Look not to them for peace and understanding. |
| M:11.4 | Peace is impossible to those who | look on war. Peace is inevitable to those who offer peace. How |
| M:12.6 | Oneness and sickness cannot co-exist. God's teachers choose to | look on dreams a while. It is a conscious choice. For they have |
| M:13.4 | toys? Does one whose vision has already glimpsed the face of Christ | look back with longing on a slaughter house? No one who has escaped |
| M:17.4 | not. It cannot be partially recognized. Who is unaware of truth must | look upon illusions. |
| M:17.9 | nor protects. To see it and to recognize its thought system is to | look on nothing. Can nothing give rise to anger? Hardly so. Remember |
| M:19.4 | attributing to God the lens of warped perception through which you | look. Now it belongs to Him and not to you. You are afraid of Him and |
| M:26.2 | And meanwhile they give all their gifts to the teachers of God who | look to them for help, asking all things in their name and in no |
| M:27.5 | Creator but avenger. Terrible His thoughts and fearful His image. To | look on His creations is to die. |
| M:28.4 | and understood. And we, God's children, rise up from the dust and | look upon our perfect sinlessness. The song of Heaven sounds around |

| W1:70.10 | eyes closed to reviewing some of the external places where you have | looked for salvation in the past—in other people, in possessions, |
| W1:78.11 | for these quiet times today in which you laid your images aside and | looked upon the miracle of love the Holy Spirit showed you in their |
| W1:128.7 | afterwards, you will not value anything you see as much as when you | looked at it before. Your whole perspective on the world will shift |
| W1:132.5 | thoughts to give it meaning. Yet in truth you found exactly what you | looked for when you came. There is no world apart from what you wish, |
| W1:166.11 | we cannot die. The wish for death is answered, and the sight that | looked upon it now has been replaced by vision which perceives that |

| Tx:2.67 | that the Spiritual eye cannot see error and is capable only of | looking beyond it to the defense of Atonement. There is no doubt that |
| Tx:2.70 | in which right-mindedness can now be attained. Charity is a way of | looking at another as if he had already gone far beyond his actual |
| Tx:5.17 | not creating; it is reparation. The Holy Spirit promotes healing by | looking beyond it to what the Children of God were before healing was |
| Tx:5.35 | therefore strengthened by being shared. If you make the mistake of | looking for the Holy Spirit in yourself alone, your meditations will |
| Tx:8.20 | choose, is know thyself. There is nothing else to learn. Everyone is | looking for himself and for the power and glory he thinks he has |
| Tx:8.114 | can you learn how blessed you are. By following this way, you are | looking for the truth in you. This is not going beyond yourself but |
| Tx:9.14 | Forgiveness through the Holy Spirit lies simply in | looking beyond error from the beginning and thus keeping it unreal |
| Tx:9.25 | or like the theologian, by acknowledging darkness in yourself and | looking for a distant light to remove it while emphasizing the |
| Tx:9.39 | of reality. Yet you cannot overlook it unless you are not | looking. |
| Tx:9.100 | though, that to do this is blasphemy, for it means that you are | looking without love on God and His creation, from which He cannot be |
| Tx:10.31 | of your own Soul, all your understanding is lost because you are | looking on what God created as yourself without love. And since what |

| Tx:10.39 | must be ready. Let us be very calm in doing this, for we are merely | looking honestly for truth. The “dynamics” of the ego will be our |
| Tx:10.40 | way of knowledge? And how else can one dispel illusions except by | looking at them directly without protecting them? Be not afraid, |
| Tx:10.40 | protecting them? Be not afraid, therefore, for what you will be | looking at is the source of fear, but you have surely learned by now |

| Tx:13.23 | that you are guilty but the source lies in the past, you are not | looking inward. The past is not in you. Your weird associations to it |
| Tx:13.28 | unmerciful unto yourselves do not remember your Father's Love. And | looking without mercy upon your brothers, you do not remember how |
| Tx:15.67 | will be why it was you ever wanted it. You have nothing to lose by | looking open-eyed at this, for ugliness such as this belongs not in |
| Tx:15.86 | task is but to continue as fast as possible the necessary process of | looking straight at all the interference and seeing it exactly as it |
| Tx:16.11 | a little part of the whole. And this is but a way of avoiding or | looking away from the whole to what you think you might be better |
| Tx:16.30 | to look upon the special hate relationship, for freedom lies in | looking at it. It would be impossible not to know the meaning of love |
| Tx:16.43 | In | looking at the special relationship, it is necessary first to realize |

| Tx:22.15 | in one another is always faith in Him. You are indeed correct in | looking on each other as His chosen home, for here you will with Him |
| Tx:23.18 | truth, itself. The meeting of illusions leads to war. Peace, | looking on itself, extends itself. War is the condition in which fear |

| Tx:26.72 | Belief in sin arouses fear and, like its cause, is looking forward, | looking back but overlooking what is here and now. Yet only here and |
| Tx:27.38 | of view. All questions asked within this world are but a way of | looking, not a question asked. A question asked in hate cannot be |
| Tx:29.10 | that you are free? Why would you not acclaim the truth, instead of | looking on it as an enemy? Why does an easy path, so clearly marked |
| Tx:29.10 | follow? Is it not because you see it as the road to hell instead of | looking on it as a simple way, without a sacrifice or any loss, to |
| Tx:29.53 | from all the misery the world reflects. This is the penalty for | looking not within for certainty and quiet calm which liberates you |
| Tx:30.83 | other judgments made on different aspects of experience. And then in | looking back you think you see another meaning in what went before. |

| W1:28.7 | for the day is stated first and then applied to whatever you see in | looking about you. Not only should the subjects be chosen randomly, |
| W1:29.7 | practice periods, repeat the idea for today at least once an hour, | looking slowly about you as you say the words unhurriedly to |
| W1:30.3 | day. Whenever you have a moment or so, repeat it to yourself slowly, | looking about you and trying to realize that the idea applies to |
| W1:30.5 | idea with your eyes closed, using whatever subjects come to mind and | looking within rather than without. Today's idea applies equally to |
| W1:32.3 | and evening by repeating the idea for today two or three times while | looking around at the world you see as outside yourself. Then close |

| W1:42.7 | occur, open your eyes and repeat the thought once more while | looking slowly about; close your eyes, repeat the idea once more, and |
| W1:57.4 | [33] There is another way of | looking at the world. Since the purpose of the world is not the one I |
| W1:57.4 | world is not the one I ascribed to it, there must be another way of | looking at it. I see everything upside down, and my thoughts are the |
| W1:70.12 | the clouds that surround the light, and it is in them you have been | looking for it. It is not there. It is past the clouds and in the |
| W1:70.13 | have failed you, surely you do not want to remain in the clouds | looking vainly for idols there when you could so easily walk on into |
| W1:75.4 | Our longer practice periods will be devoted to | looking at the world which our forgiveness shows us. This is what we |

| Tx:21.48 | in both your sight. What it would keep apart has met and joined, and | looks upon the ego unafraid. Little children, innocent of sin, follow |

| Tx:21.87 | creation. Sure in its vision as its Creator is in what He knows, it | looks on everything and sees it is the same. It sees not the |
| Tx:22.3 | these selves, for differences are only of the body. Therefore, he | looks on nothing he would take. He denies not his own reality, |
| Tx:22.20 | can be attained, then the belief in sin must be eternal. Yet reason | looks on this another way, for reason sees the source of an idea as |
| Tx:22.30 | leads to its fixed belief in sin and disregard of errors. It | looks on nothing that can be corrected. Thus does the ego damn and |
| Tx:22.31 | gate, locked and without a key, across the road to peace. No one who | looks on it without the help of reason would try to pass it. The |
| Tx:22.41 | open now for you, will you now open to the sorrowful. And none who | looks upon the Christ in you but will rejoice. How beautiful the |
| Tx:22.49 | solidity, and firmness of foundation. Yes, to the body's eyes it | looks like an enormous solid body, immovable as is a mountain. Yet |
| Tx:22.55 | The form of error is no longer seen, and reason, joined with love, | looks quietly on all confusion, observing merely, “This was a |
| Tx:23.3 | innocence. And every error disappeared because they saw it not. Who | looks for glory finds it where it is. Where could it be but in the |
| Tx:24.12 | in sight all lacks it can perceive. This does it seek, and this it | looks upon. And always whom it thus diminishes would be your savior, |
| Tx:24.23 | to giver and receiver. Not one glance from eyes it veils but | looks on sight of death. Not one believer in its potency but seeks |
| Tx:24.40 | The Christ in you is very still. He | looks on what He loves and knows it as Himself. And thus does He |
| Tx:24.42 | Where could your peace arise but from forgiveness? The Christ in you | looks only on the truth and sees no condemnation that could need |
| Tx:24.43 | sin its eyes behold in him and love to look upon, it saw in you and | looks on still with joy. Yet is it joy to look upon decay and madness |
| Tx:24.53 | for holiness is quite impartial, with one judgment made for all it | looks upon. And that is made, not of itself, but through the Voice |
| Tx:24.56 | of you. The Christ in you beholds his holiness. Your specialness | looks on his body and beholds him not. |
| Tx:24.70 | you will see a body. Look at this body in a different light, and it | looks different. And without a light, it seems that it is gone. Yet |
| Tx:25.7 | and so complete it wishes only that it may release all that it | looks upon unto itself. Its radiance shines through each body that it |
| Tx:25.7 | upon unto itself. Its radiance shines through each body that it | looks upon and brushes all its darkness into light merely by looking |
| Tx:25.19 | him what he sees not. And in this seeing is the vision shared that | looks on Christ instead of seeing death. |
| Tx:25.43 | no one who is different from himself. And as he loves them, so he | looks upon himself with love and gentleness. He would no more condemn |
| Tx:25.43 | with what God wills, he has the power to heal and bless all those he | looks on with the grace of God upon his sight. |
| Tx:25.66 | who know not of justice still can ask and learn the answer. Justice | looks on all in the same way. It is not just that one should lack for |
| Tx:25.74 | pays the cost of sin, so it be paid, the Holy Spirit heeds not who | looks on innocence at last, provided it is seen and recognized. For |
| Tx:26.2 | joining. Around each entity is built a wall so seeming solid that it | looks as if what is inside can never reach without, and what is out |
| Tx:26.53 | to make it true. Illusions have no witnesses and no effects. Who | looks on them is but deceived. Forgiveness is the only function here |
| Tx:27.48 | and see Christ's face instead. Healing replaces suffering. Who | looks on one cannot perceive the other, for they cannot both be |
| Tx:27.64 | must be innocent. And what I suffer from is your attack.” No one who | looks upon this “reasoning” exactly as it is could fail to see it |
| Tx:27.64 | not follow, and it makes no sense. Yet it seems sensible because it | looks as if the world were hurting you. And so it seems as if there |
| Tx:27.78 | it, and collect more senseless things that it can call its own. It | looks about for special bodies which can share its dream. Sometimes |
| Tx:27.85 | In gentle laughter does the Holy Spirit perceive the cause and | looks not to effects. How else could He correct your error, who have |
| Tx:30.73 | dilemma if he can forgive. The mind must think of its Creator as it | looks upon itself. If you can see your brother merits pardon, you |
| Tx:30.82 | be that meaning changes constantly and yet is true. The Holy Spirit | looks upon the world as with one purpose, changelessly established. |
| Tx:31.44 | charms and even seems to love. It searches for companions, and it | looks at times with pity on the suffering and sometimes offers |
| Tx:31.66 | world forgiving, for you have forgiven it its trespasses and so it | looks on you with eyes that see as yours. Are you a body? So is all |
| Tx:31.75 | especially entrusted to his care. And this he learns when first he | looks upon one brother as he looks upon himself and sees the mirror |
| Tx:31.75 | care. And this he learns when first he looks upon one brother as he | looks upon himself and sees the mirror of himself in him. Thus is the |
| Tx:31.75 | of himself laid by, for nothing stands between his sight and what he | looks upon to judge what he beholds. And in this single vision does |
| Tx:31.75 | this single vision does he see the face of Christ and understands he | looks on everyone as he beholds this One. For there is light where |
| Tx:31.78 | This is the savior's vision—that he see his innocence in all he | looks upon and sees his own salvation everywhere. He holds no concept |
| Tx:31.78 | calm and open eyes and what he sees. He brings the light to what he | looks upon, that he may see it as it really is. |
| Tx:31.82 | beholding them with eyes unopened. And they cannot see until he | looks on them with seeing eyes and offers them forgiveness with his |
| Tx:31.96 | brother who would join with me in reaching past temptation and who | looks with fixed determination toward the light that shines beyond in |

| W1:63.6 | Remember that God's Son | looks to you for his salvation. And who but your Self must be His Son? |

| W1:92.5 | it; weakness reflects the darkness of its maker. It is sick and | looks on sickness, which is like itself. |
| W1:92.7 | Weakness, which | looks in darkness, cannot see a purpose in forgiveness and in love. |
| W1:95.19 | your little part in bringing happiness to all the world. And Heaven | looks to you in confidence that you will try today. Share, then, its |

| W1:107.6 | constancy and love which does not falter in the face of pain but | looks beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the gift of healing, for |

| W1:127.3 | Love cannot judge. As it is one itself, it | looks on all as one. Its meaning lies in oneness. And it must elude |
| W1:133.11 | His ineffectual mistakes appear as sins to him because he | looks upon the tarnished as his own—the rust a sign of deep |
| W1:134.7 | truth in the illusions of the world. It sees their nothingness and | looks right through the thousand forms in which they may appear. It |

| W1:R5.9 | I am reborn each time a brother's mind turns to the light in him and | looks for me. I have forgotten no one. Help me now to lead you back |
| W1:184.4 | truth. Its enemy is wholeness. It conceives of little things and | looks upon them. And a lack of space, a sense of unity or vision |
| W1:188.5 | is it acknowledged universally. For what your inward vision | looks upon is your perception of the universe. |

| W1:193.10 | do not forget these words apply to everything you see or any brother | looks upon amiss. |
| W1:199.1 | yourself. The body is a limit. Who would seek for freedom in a body | looks for it where it cannot be found. The mind can be made free when |
| W1:200.7 | Is it here that he would seek for peace? Or must he see that, as he | looks on it, the world can but deceive? Yet can he learn to look on |
| W2:WF.4 | reality nor seeks to twist it to appearance that it likes. It merely | looks and waits and judges not. He who would not forgive must judge, |
| W2:224.1 | and great, wholly beneficent and free from guilt that Heaven | looks to it to give it light. It lights the world as well. It is the |
| W2:271.1 | His kindly sight redeems the world from death. For nothing that He | looks on but must live, remembering the Father and the Son; Creator |
| W2:291.1 | Christ's vision | looks through me today. His sight shows me all things forgiven and at |
| W2:304.1 | I intrude my world upon it. Nor can I behold the holy sights Christ | looks upon unless it is His vision that I use. Perception is a |

| Tx:7.78 | it as a means of depriving you of something you want. Yet you cannot | lose anything unless you did not value it and therefore did not want |
| Tx:8.9 | you have. When you are taught against your nature, however, you will | lose by your learning because your learning will imprison you. Your |
| Tx:8.19 | of yourself. Never forget this, for in him you will find yourself or | lose sight of yourself. Whenever two Sons of God meet, they are given |
| Tx:8.40 | on to both, or you will try to go in different directions and will | lose the way. |
| Tx:8.41 | for all minds, and the one He taught me is yours. Let us not | lose sight of His direction through illusions, for only illusions of |
| Tx:8.59 | use to which it can be put. To use the body unnaturally is to | lose sight of the Holy Spirit's purpose and thus to confuse the goal |
| Tx:8.63 | illness because it is not true. A medium of communication will | lose its usefulness if it is used for anything else. To use a medium |
| Tx:8.75 | The ego, however, establishes it as an end because as such it will | lose its true function. This is the purpose of everything the ego |
| Tx:8.75 | This is the purpose of everything the ego does. Its sole aim is to | lose sight of the function of everything. A sick body does not make |

| Tx:8.94 | source of fear in this whole process can only be what you think you | lose. Yet it is only what the Holy Spirit sees that you can possibly |
| Tx:8.116 | high because of the value of the return. The price for getting is to | lose sight of value, making it inevitable that you will not value |
| Tx:9.6 | for it, but because you are following the wrong guide and will | lose your way. |

| Tx:9.78 | you are willing to attack the divinity of your brothers and thus | lose sight of yours. And you are willing to keep it hidden and to |
| Tx:10.27 | glorious and gave him the light that shines in him. You will never | lose your way, for God leads you. When you wander, you but undertake |
| Tx:10.46 | else. The ego is totally confused about reality, but it does not | lose sight of its goal. It is much more vigilant than you are because |

| Tx:11.53 | The ego is trying to teach you how to gain the whole world and | lose your own Soul. The Holy Spirit teaches that you cannot lose your |
| Tx:11.53 | and lose your own Soul. The Holy Spirit teaches that you cannot | lose your Soul and there is no gain in the world, for of itself it |
| Tx:11.80 | God Himself placed in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot | lose it. A Voice will answer every question you ask, and a Vision |
| Tx:11.86 | They seem to love, yet they desert and are deserted. They appear to | lose what they love, perhaps the most insane belief of all. And their |
| Tx:12.32 | past. But if you interpret your function as destruction, you will | lose sight of the present and hold on to the past to ensure a |

| Tx:12.74 | not before the altars to sacrifice and seek not what you will surely | lose. Content yourselves with what you will as surely keep and be not |
| Tx:13.7 | for Christ's gift you can bestow, and your Father's gift you cannot | lose. Offer Christ's gift to everyone and everywhere, for miracles |
| Tx:13.44 | Can God's Son | lose himself in dreams when God has placed within him the glad call |
| Tx:13.65 | is no conflict here. To wish for guilt in any way, in any form, will | lose appreciation of the value of your guiltlessness and push it from |
| Tx:13.82 | all the happy communication that you have thrown away but could not | lose. |
| Tx:14.19 | them both is meaningless. All you have done by keeping them apart is | lose their meaning by confusing them with each other. And so you do |
| Tx:14.67 | His Son to turn to Him and remain Himself. It is impossible that God | lose His Identity, for if He did, you would lose yours. And being |
| Tx:14.67 | is impossible that God lose His Identity, for if He did, you would | lose yours. And being yours, He cannot change Himself, for your |
| Tx:15.15 | but in eternity. There never was an instant in which God's Son could | lose his purity. His changeless state is beyond time, for his purity |
| Tx:15.58 | comes from another, and what you gain he loses. Someone must always | lose if you perceive yourself as weak. Yet there is another |
| Tx:15.67 | question will be why it was you ever wanted it. You have nothing to | lose by looking open-eyed at this, for ugliness such as this belongs |
| Tx:15.71 | impossible, for the ego believes that to forgive another is to | lose him. For it is only by attack without forgiveness that the ego |
| Tx:15.75 | it. For you think that your minds must be kept private or you will | lose them, and if your bodies are together your minds remain your |
| Tx:16.3 | the healing be done for you. Keep but one thought in mind and do not | lose sight of it, however tempted you may be to judge any situation |
| Tx:17.6 | it; not you. But forget not this: When you become disturbed and | lose your peace of mind because another is attempting to solve his |
| Tx:17.21 | loveliness will so attract you that you will be unwilling ever to | lose the sight of it again. And you will let it transform the |
| Tx:17.53 | you make yourselves unable to express the holy instant, and thus you | lose sight of it. |
| Tx:17.54 | results to be accepted and shared. To attack each other is not to | lose the instant but to make it powerless in its effects. You have |
| Tx:17.63 | being withheld from where it rightfully belonged. Thus do you | lose the understanding of the situation the goal of truth would |
| Tx:18.52 | it has attacked the body. It can project its guilt, but it will not | lose it through projection. And though it clearly can misperceive the |
| Tx:20.28 | power as the laws of this world interpret giving—as you give, you | lose. It is not up to you to give power at all. Power is of God, |
| Tx:21.7 | where they live, adjusting to it as they think they must, afraid to | lose the little that they have. And so it is with all who see the |
| Tx:21.9 | to you. You could remember, yet you are afraid, believing you would | lose the world you learned since then. And yet you know that nothing |
| Tx:21.81 | mind. You can desire to exchange your helplessness for power, and | lose this same desire as a little glint of sin attracts you. And you |
| Tx:22.16 | the same amount of misery, though each one seems to be the way to | lose the misery the other brings. Every illusion carries pain and |
| Tx:23.44 | peace in any form, if only thus does it become impossible that you | lose sight of it? It can be kept shining before your vision, forever |
| Tx:25.48 | his brother and himself and thus become a means to save instead of | lose. Salvation is no more than a reminder this world is not your |

| Tx:25.63 | would not know. This much is necessary to add to the idea no one can | lose for you to gain. And nothing more. |
| Tx:25.81 | as a state in which it is decided who shall win and who shall | lose—how much the one shall take and how much can the loser still |
| Tx:25.82 | has not yet been solved. The principle that justice means no one can | lose is crucial to this course. For miracles depend on justice. Not |
| Tx:25.83 | No one deserves to | lose. And what would be unjust to him cannot occur. Healing must be |
| Tx:25.86 | justice must be done to all if anyone is to be healed. No one can | lose, and everyone must benefit. |
| Tx:26.1 | balance. It is the symbol of the central theme that somebody must | lose. Its focus on the body is apparent, for it is always an attempt |
| Tx:26.2 | part to keep itself complete. For if they joined, each one would | lose its own identity, and by their separation are their selves |
| Tx:26.3 | preserved through sacrifice of all the rest. And all the rest must | lose this little part, remaining incomplete to keep its own identity |
| Tx:26.6 | You can | lose sight of oneness, but can not make sacrifice of its reality. Nor |
| Tx:26.6 | of oneness, but can not make sacrifice of its reality. Nor can you | lose what you would sacrifice nor keep the Holy Spirit from His task |
| Tx:26.38 | your own unfairness to yourself has He protected you. You cannot | lose your way because there is no way but His and nowhere can you go |

| Tx:26.88 | way the game of guilt is played, there must be loss. Someone must | lose his innocence that someone else can take it from him, making it |
| Tx:27.22 | of fairness, not of guilt. If you assume correction's role, you | lose the function of forgiveness. No one can forgive until he learns |
| Tx:27.22 | that it is His? Yet if it is not His, it is not yours, for you must | lose what you would take away. |

| Tx:29.37 | sees a different function for a dream. When dreams are shared, they | lose the function of attack and separation, even though it was for |

| Tx:30.26 | Perhaps there is another way to look at this. What can I | lose by asking? |
| Tx:30.34 | what he has chosen for himself? God but ensured that you would never | lose your will when He gave you His perfect answer. Hear it now that |
| Tx:30.39 | gift you seek. When you decide upon the form of what you want, you | lose the understanding of its purpose. So you see your will within |
| Tx:31.13 | It is not vanquished that the truth be known nor fought against to | lose to truth's appeal. There is no battle which must be prepared, no |
| Tx:31.15 | roles, each seeming to possess advantages you would not want to | lose. So in their fusion there appears to be the hope of satisfaction |
| Tx:31.40 | your brother and yourself, and you will gain as much as he will | lose, and what you lose is what is given him. How utterly opposed to |
| Tx:31.40 | yourself, and you will gain as much as he will lose, and what you | lose is what is given him. How utterly opposed to truth is this, when |

| Tx:25.80 | asks no sacrifice of anyone. An answer which demands the slightest | loss to anyone has not resolved the problem but has added to it and |
| Tx:25.81 | The Holy Spirit's perception leaves no ground for an attack. Only a | loss could justify attack, and loss of any kind He cannot see. The |
| Tx:25.81 | no ground for an attack. Only a loss could justify attack, and | loss of any kind He cannot see. The world solves problems in another |
| Tx:26.1 | focus on the body is apparent, for it is always an attempt to limit | loss. The body is itself a sacrifice—a giving up of power in the |
| Tx:26.3 | its own identity intact. In this perception of yourself, the body's | loss would be a sacrifice indeed. For sight of bodies becomes the |
| Tx:26.4 | The body is a | loss and can be made to sacrifice. And while you see your brother as |
| Tx:26.8 | given him by One Who knows His gifts can never suffer sacrifice and | loss. God's justice rests in gentleness upon His Son and keeps him |
| Tx:26.11 | of the form it seems to take, is a demand that someone suffer | loss and make a sacrifice that you might gain. And when the situation |
| Tx:26.11 | than is another. For there is but one mistake—the whole idea that | loss is possible and could result in gain for anyone. If this were |
| Tx:26.12 | This one mistake in any form has one correction. There is no | loss; to think there is, is a mistake. You have no problems, though |
| Tx:26.15 | great and cannot be resolved. For there are those you want to suffer | loss and no one whom you wish to be preserved from sacrifice |
| Tx:26.15 | will ask no sacrifice of him because you could not will he suffer | loss. The miracle of justice you call forth will rest on you as |
| Tx:26.16 | can be remembered and will shine away all memory of sacrifice and | loss. |
| Tx:26.58 | of his own. And this he cannot do without a sense of isolation, | loss, and loneliness. This is the treasure he has sought to find. And |
| Tx:26.61 | some sacrifice and thus denies that everything is his, unlimited by | loss of any kind. A tiny sacrifice is just the same in its effects as |
| Tx:26.61 | just the same in its effects as is the whole idea of sacrifice. If | loss in any form is possible, then is God's Son made incomplete and |
| Tx:26.69 | of the gift seems to be one in which you sacrifice and suffer | loss. You see eventual salvation, not immediate results. |
| Tx:26.70 | so perceive it, you will be afraid of it, believing that the risk of | loss is great between the time its purpose is made yours and its |
| Tx:26.70 | and let you instantly become as one. And it is here you fear the | loss would lie. Do not project this fear to time, for time is not the |
| Tx:26.71 | time. No more can it be overlooked except within the present. Future | loss is not your fear. But present joining is your dread. Who can |
| Tx:26.88 | innocence? Whatever way the game of guilt is played, there must be | loss. Someone must lose his innocence that someone else can take it |
| Tx:28.15 | where is sacrifice, when memory of God has come to take the place of | loss? What better way to close the little gap between illusions and |
| Tx:28.46 | the simple happiness of health? What God has given cannot be a | loss, and what is not of Him has no effects. What then would you |
| Tx:28.46 | of healing where the seeds of sickness were. And there will be no | loss, but only gain. |
| Tx:28.48 | malice, bitterness and death, of sin and suffering, [of] pain and | loss, that makes them real. Unshared, they are perceived as |
| Tx:29.9 | body to say “no” to Heaven's calling, were you not afraid to find a | loss of self in finding God? Yet can your Self be lost by being found? |
| Tx:29.10 | instead of looking on it as a simple way, without a sacrifice or any | loss, to find yourself in Heaven and in God? Until you realize you |
| Tx:29.10 | you realize you give up nothing, until you understand there is no | loss, you will have some regrets about the way that you have chosen. |
| Tx:29.12 | are you not rejoicing? You are free of pain and sickness, misery and | loss, and all effects of hatred and attack. No more is pain your |
| Tx:29.17 | and in His sacrifice are you made more, and He is lessened by the | loss of you. And what is gone from Him becomes your god, protecting |
| Tx:29.19 | what He is with littleness and limit and despair. It is His | loss you celebrate when you behold the body as a thing you love, or |
| Tx:29.38 | and destruction, sin, and death; of madness and of murder, grief and | loss. This is the “sacrifice” salvation asks and gladly offers peace |
| Tx:29.46 | sacrifice is to give up and thus to be without and to have suffered | loss. And by this giving up is life renounced. Seek not outside |
| Tx:29.50 | where He is, no idols can abide. The fear of God is but the fear of | loss of idols. It is not the fear of loss of your reality. But you |
| Tx:29.50 | fear of God is but the fear of loss of idols. It is not the fear of | loss of your reality. But you have made of your reality an idol which |
| Tx:29.53 | one believes in idols who has not enslaved himself to littleness and | loss. And thus must seek beyond his little self for strength to raise |
| Tx:29.57 | Here the deathless come to die, the all-encompassing to suffer | loss, the timeless to be made the slaves of time. Here does the |
| Tx:30.38 | will that everything be yours. Decide for idols, and you ask for | loss. Decide for truth, and everything is yours. |
| Tx:30.83 | thus you judge disaster and success, advance, retreat, and gain and | loss. These judgments all are made according to the roles the script |
| Tx:30.87 | the sacrifice of meaning is undone. All sacrifice entails the | loss of your ability to see relationships among events. And looked at |
| Tx:30.87 | no purpose. And what they are for cannot be seen. In any thought of | loss, there is no meaning. No one has agreed with you on what it |
| Tx:30.90 | from disaster of all kinds. The miracle is proof he is not bound by | loss or suffering in any form because it can so easily be changed. |
| Tx:31.50 | would be asked to make exchange of what you now believe for total | loss of self, and greater terror would arise in you. |
| Tx:31.55 | the choice by your decision. But this gain is paid in almost equal | loss, for now you stand accused of guilt for what your brother is. |
| Tx:31.63 | appears and disappears in death; that one is doomed to suffering and | loss. And no one is exactly as he was an instant previous, nor will |
| Tx:31.92 | you behold as sickness and as pain, as weakness and as suffering and | loss is but temptation to perceive yourself defenseless and in hell. |
| W1:27.4 | If fear of | loss still persists, add further: |
| W1:38.4 | today, close your eyes, and then search your mind for any sense of | loss or unhappiness of any kind as you see it. Try to make as little |
| W1:41.1 | a deep sense of helplessness, misery, suffering, and intense fear of | loss. The separated ones have invented many “cures” for what they |
| W1:41.2 | into the whole world. It will cure all sorrow and pain and fear and | loss because it will heal the mind that thought these things were |
| W1:44.5 | is the release from hell. Perceived through the ego's eyes, it is | loss of identity and a descent into hell. |
| W1:53.6 | I am. The fact that I see a world in which there is suffering and | loss and death shows me that I am seeing only the representation of |
| W1:54.6 | replace fear, laughter to replace weeping, and abundance to replace | loss. I would look upon the real world, and let it teach me that my |
| W1:56.2 | who I am when I see myself as under constant attack? Pain, illness, | loss, age, and death seem to threaten me. All my hopes and wishes and |
| W1:58.6 | are mine because God intended them for me. I cannot suffer any | loss or deprivation or pain because of who I am. My Father supports |
| W1:76.10 | the truth to you. You will be listening to One Who says there is no | loss under the laws of God. Payment is neither given nor received. |
| W1:84.2 | in the likeness of my Creator. I cannot suffer, I cannot experience | loss, and I cannot die. I am not a body. I would recognize my reality |
| W1:94.5 | This is the Self which knows no fear nor could conceive of | loss or suffering or death. |
| W1:99.5 | you see—on sin and pain and death, on grief and separation, and on | loss. Yet does He know one thing must still be true—God still is |
| W1:105.1 | the giver loses as he gives the gift; the taker is the richer by his | loss. These are not gifts, but bargains made with guilt. |
| W1:105.2 | The truly given gift entails no | loss. It is impossible that one can gain because another loses. This |
| W1:105.6 | completes Him must complete His Son as well. He cannot give through | loss. No more can you. Receive His gift of joy and peace today, and |
| W1:109.3 | will carry you through storms and strife, past misery and pain, past | loss and death, and onward to the certainty of God. There is no |
| W1:129.2 | about the value of this world. Perhaps you will concede there is no | loss in letting go all thought of value here. The world you see is |
| W1:129.3 | Is it a | loss to find a world instead where losing is impossible, where love |
| W1:129.3 | forever, hate cannot exist, and vengeance has no meaning? Is it | loss to find all things you really want and know they have no ending, |
| W1:129.6 | Such is the choice. What | loss can be for you in choosing not to value nothingness? This world |
| W1:129.10 | thanks. This day we realize that what you feared to lose was only | loss. |
| W1:129.11 | Now do we understand there is no | loss, for we have seen its opposite at last, and we are grateful that |
| W1:133.8 | are there. Who seeks to take away has been deceived by the illusion | loss can offer gain. Yet loss must offer loss and nothing more. |
| W1:133.8 | take away has been deceived by the illusion loss can offer gain. Yet | loss must offer loss and nothing more. |
| W1:133.8 | deceived by the illusion loss can offer gain. Yet loss must offer | loss and nothing more. |
| W1:151.10 | all faith that you have placed in pain, disaster, suffering, and | loss. He gives you vision which can look beyond these grim |
| W1:152.1 | No one can suffer | loss unless it be his own decision. No one suffers pain except his |
| W1:152.2 | can truth have exceptions? If you have the gift of everything, can | loss be real? Can pain be part of peace, or grief of joy? Can fear |
| W1:155.4 | still believing its reality, and they have suffered from a sense of | loss and have not been released accordingly. Others have chosen |
| W1:155.4 | chosen nothing but the world, and they have suffered from a sense of | loss still deeper, which they did not understand. |
| W1:155.5 | Between these paths there is another road that leads away from | loss of every kind, for sacrifice and deprivation both are quickly |
| W1:162.5 | yours, available to all as remedy for grief and misery, all sense of | loss, and for complete escape from sin and guilt? |
| W1:167.2 | you give response of any kind that is not perfect joy. All sorrow, | loss, anxiety, and suffering and pain, even a little sigh of |
| W1:185.3 | merely shift about in changing patterns, as the ratio of gain to | loss and loss to gain takes on a different aspect or another form. |
| W1:185.3 | shift about in changing patterns, as the ratio of gain to loss and | loss to gain takes on a different aspect or another form. |
| W1:185.4 | minds intent on compromise, each to his gain and to another's | loss. |
| W1:187.6 | many forms which sacrifice may take. He laughs as well at pain and | loss, at sickness and at grief, at poverty, starvation and at death. |
| W1:194.3 | In no one instant is depression felt or pain experienced or | loss perceived. In no one instant sorrow can be set upon a throne and |
| W1:194.5 | is present, freed from its bequest of grief and misery, of pain and | loss, becomes the instant in which time escapes the bondage of |
| W1:194.7 | What can he suffer? What can cause him pain or bring experience of | loss to him? What can he fear? And what can he regard except with |
| W1:195.5 | sick, the weak, the needy and afraid, and those who mourn a seeming | loss or feel apparent pain, who suffer cold or hunger, or who walk |
| W2:245.1 | and afraid. I give Your peace to those who suffer pain or grieve for | loss or think they are bereft of hope and happiness. Send them to me, |
| W2:249.1 | Forgiveness paints a picture of a world where suffering is over, | loss becomes impossible, and anger makes no sense. Attack is gone, |
| W2:249.1 | and madness has an end. What suffering is now conceivable? What | loss can be sustained? The world becomes a place of joy, abundance, |
| W2:268.2 | lying tongues. Only reality is free of pain. Only reality is free of | loss. Only reality is wholly safe. And it is only this we seek today. |
| W2:284.1 | Loss is not loss when properly perceived. Pain is impossible. There | |
| W2:284.1 | Loss is not | loss when properly perceived. Pain is impossible. There is no grief |
| W2:285.1 | me, what purpose would my suffering fulfill, and how would grief and | loss avail me, if insanity departs from me today and I accept my |
| W2:322.2 | up nothing You gave me. What You did not give has no reality. What | loss can I anticipate except the loss of fear and the return of Love |
| W2:322.2 | did not give has no reality. What loss can I anticipate except the | loss of fear and the return of Love into my mind? |
| W2:323.1 | beloved Son—You ask him to give up all suffering, all sense of | loss and sadness, all anxiety and doubt and freely let Your Love come |
| W2:328.1 | salvation is obtained. Yet all we find is sickness, suffering and | loss, and death. This is not what our Father wills for us, nor is |
| W2:337.1 | safety, everlasting love, freedom forever from all thought of | loss, complete deliverance from suffering. And only happiness can be |
| W2:343.1 | The end of suffering cannot be | loss. The gift of everything can but be gain. You only give. You |
| M:4.6 | is really valueless, he will not generalize the lesson for fear of | loss and sacrifice. It takes great learning to understand that all |
| M:4.19 | not seek what only he could keep, because that is a guarantee of | loss. He does not want to suffer. Why should he ensure himself pain? |
| M:6.1 | sudden healing might precipitate intense depression, and a sense of | loss so deep that the patient might even try to destroy himself. |
| M:10.6 | pain he looks upon is its result. All of the loneliness and sense of | loss, of passing time and growing hopelessness; of sickening despair |

| Tx:20.47 | what they are offered, and any relationship in which they enter has | lost its meaning. They live in secrecy, hating the sunlight and happy |
| Tx:20.67 | sinless. Truth is restored to you through your desire, as it was | lost to you through your desire for something else. Open the holy |

| Tx:24.8 | might be extended, not cut off from one another. What you keep is | lost to you. God gave you both Himself, and to remember this is now |
| Tx:24.18 | your specialness and given it his place, remember this: He has not | lost the power to forgive you all the sins you think you placed |
| Tx:24.22 | part of love was not denied to him. But can it be that you have | lost because he is complete? What has been given him makes you |
| Tx:24.32 | and waken from their dream of death. Yet they hear nothing. They are | lost in dreams of specialness. They hate the call that would awaken |
| Tx:24.51 | Nothing is | lost to you in all the universe. Nothing that God created has He |
| Tx:24.64 | not to make your specialness the truth, for if it were, you would be | lost indeed. Be thankful, rather, it is given you to see his holiness |
| Tx:25.24 | He could be sure His sanity went there with him so he could not be | lost forever in the madness of his wish. |
| Tx:25.40 | if he fulfilled the role God gave to him. But think not Heaven is | lost to him alone. Nor can it be regained unless the way is shown to |
| Tx:25.60 | For in this world, it seems that one must gain because another | lost. If this were true, then God is mad indeed! But what is this |
| Tx:25.71 | And thus is love perceived as weak and vengeance strong. For love has | lost when judgment left its side and is too weak to save from |
| Tx:25.79 | you. God's justice warrants gratitude, not fear. Nothing you give is | lost to you or anyone, but cherished and preserved [for you] in |
| Tx:25.86 | believe you have. And bitterness, with vengeance justified and mercy | lost, condemns you as unworthy of forgiveness. The unforgiven have no |
| Tx:26.6 | the Holy Spirit from His task of showing you that it has not been | lost. Hear then the song your brother sings to you. And let the world |
| Tx:26.22 | of Heaven, for only perception needs salvation. Heaven was never | lost and so cannot be saved. Yet who can make a choice between the |
| Tx:26.27 | come to be rekindled and increased in joy. For here is what was | lost restored to them and all their radiance made whole again. |
| Tx:26.28 | to receive each gift that brings him nearer to his home. Not one is | lost, and none is cherished more than any other. Each reminds him of |
| Tx:26.31 | Nothing is ever | lost but time, which in the end is [nothing. It] is but a little |
| Tx:26.52 | the world apart, and relegates attack unto Himself. Thus has He | lost His Mind, proclaiming sin has taken His reality from Him, and |
| Tx:26.57 | when He created him as everything. It is impossible that anything be | lost if what you have is what you are. This is the miracle by which |
| Tx:27.2 | of attack. Thus would you make yourself to be the sign that he has | lost his innocence and need but look on you to realize that he has |

| Tx:27.27 | of what your function is. If He upheld divided function, you were | lost indeed. His inability to see His goal divided and distinct for |
| Tx:27.73 | an idle dream has terrified God's Son and made him think that he has | lost his innocence, denied his Father, and made war upon himself. So |
| Tx:28.10 | thing you fear. No more have you. And so your innocence has not been | lost. You need no healing to be healed. In quietness, see in the |
| Tx:28.15 | What has been | lost, to see the causeless not? And where is sacrifice, when memory |

| Tx:29.9 | afraid to find a loss of self in finding God? Yet can your Self be | lost by being found? |
| Tx:29.21 | Think you the Father | lost Himself when He created you? Was He made weak because He shared |
| Tx:29.24 | and love. He is himself, but not himself alone. And as his Father | lost not part of Him in your creation, so the light in him is |

| Tx:4.19 | doubt, beyond perception, and stand forever as the mark of the | Love of God for His creations, who are wholly worthy of Him and only |
| Tx:4.27 | You forget the | love that animals have for their own offspring and the need they feel |
| Tx:4.27 | himself. Man reacts to his ego much as God does to His Souls: with | love, protection, and great charity. The reaction of man to the self |
| Tx:4.47 | well as the call of the body. That is why the basic conflict between | love and fear is unconscious; the ego cannot tolerate either and |
| Tx:4.49 | with your egos cannot believe that God loves you. You do not | love what you have made, and what you made does not love you. Being |
| Tx:4.49 | you. You do not love what you have made, and what you made does not | love you. Being made out of the denial of the Father, the ego has no |
| Tx:4.49 | own idea of yourself the will to separate, which conflicts with the | love you feel for what you made because you made it. No human love is |
| Tx:4.49 | the love you feel for what you made because you made it. No human | love is without this ambivalence, and since no ego has experienced |
| Tx:4.49 | love is without this ambivalence, and since no ego has experienced | love without ambivalence, the concept is beyond its understanding. |
| Tx:4.50 | Love will enter immediately into any mind which truly wants it, but | |
| Tx:4.51 | Let us ask the Father in my name to keep you mindful of His | love for you and yours for Him. He has never failed to answer this |
| Tx:4.52 | me to do so. I can help you only as our Father created us. I will | love you and honor you and maintain complete respect for what you |
| Tx:4.52 | respect for what you have made, but I will neither honor it nor | love it unless it is true. |
| Tx:4.53 | wait as long as you choose to forsake yourself. Because I wait in | love and not in impatience, you will surely ask me truly. I will come |
| Tx:4.64 | found wanting there. Without your own allegiance, protection, and | love, it cannot exist. Judge your ego truly, and you must withdraw |
| Tx:4.64 | your ego truly, and you must withdraw allegiance, protection, and | love from it. |
| Tx:4.68 | I know that miracles are natural because they are expressions of | love. My calling you is as natural as your answer and as inevitable. |
| Tx:4.90 | makes all men your brothers because they are all of your Father. | Love does not conquer all things, but it does set all things right. |
| Tx:4.91 | ready to hear God as you hear them. That is because the function of | love is one. |
| Tx:4.100 | experience of His Son's experience. The constant going out of His | love is blocked when His channels are closed, and He is lonely when |
| Tx:5.2 | whole-heartedly. To be whole-hearted, you must be happy. If fear and | love cannot coexist and if it is impossible to be wholly fearful and |
| Tx:5.2 | and remain alive, then the only possible whole state is that of | love. There is no difference between love and joy. Therefore, the |
| Tx:5.2 | possible whole state is that of love. There is no difference between | love and joy. Therefore, the only possible whole state is the wholly |
| Tx:5.3 | to hold it by sharing it. It is impossible for a Child of God to | love his neighbor except as himself. That is why the healer's prayer |
| Tx:5.15 | not obstruct it in any way. [Third, it is an unequivocal call to | love. Every other voice is still.] |
| Tx:5.64 | The ego does not perceive sin as a lack of | love. It perceives sin as a positive act of assault. This is an |
| Tx:5.72 | you will simultaneously exchange guilt for joy, viciousness for | love, and pain for peace. My role is only to unchain your will and |
| Tx:5.81 | is exchanged for eternity. Infinite patience calls upon infinite | love, and by producing results now, it renders time unnecessary. |
| Tx:5.94 | are not wholly joyous it is because you have reacted with a lack of | love to some Soul which God created. Perceiving this as “sin,” you |
| Tx:6.1 | conclusion that a brother is worthy of attack rather than of | love follows. What can be expected from insane premises except an |
| Tx:6.12 | altar is what makes it a church. Any church which does not inspire | love has a hidden altar which is not serving the purpose for which |
| Tx:6.18 | Teach only | love, for that is what you are. |
| Tx:6.19 | reason that makes anyone misunderstand anything. Their own imperfect | love made them vulnerable to projection, and out of their own fear |
| Tx:6.20 | in the New Testament, whose whole gospel is only the message of | love. These are not like the several slips into impatience which I |
| Tx:6.24 | You cannot | love what you do not appreciate, and fear makes appreciation |
| Tx:6.29 | thus strengthening it in both. Instead of anger, this arouses | love for both because it establishes inclusion. Perceiving equality, |
| Tx:6.41 | learn only from the Holy Spirit and teach only by Him. You are only | love, but when you denied this, you made what you are something you |
| Tx:6.41 | We said before that the message of the crucifixion was, “Teach only | love, for that is what you are.” This is the one lesson which is |
| Tx:6.44 | is learning. Everything you teach, you are learning. Teach only | love, and learn that love is yours and you are love. |
| Tx:6.44 | you teach, you are learning. Teach only love, and learn that | love is yours and you are love. |
| Tx:6.44 | learning. Teach only love, and learn that love is yours and you are | love. |
| Tx:6.46 | attack within the Kingdom is impossible. You made the ego without | love, and so it does not love you. You could not remain within the |
| Tx:6.46 | is impossible. You made the ego without love, and so it does not | love you. You could not remain within the Kingdom without love, and |
| Tx:6.46 | does not love you. You could not remain within the Kingdom without | love, and since the Kingdom is love, you believe that you are without |
| Tx:6.46 | not remain within the Kingdom without love, and since the Kingdom is | love, you believe that you are without it. This enables the ego to |
| Tx:6.65 | sharing, it becomes communion. You might argue that fear as well as | love can be communicated and therefore can be shared. Yet this is not |
| Tx:7.3 | are part of God, as your sons are part of His Sons. To create is to | love. Love extends outward simply because it cannot be contained. |
| Tx:7.3 | of God, as your sons are part of His Sons. To create is to love. | Love extends outward simply because it cannot be contained. Being |
| Tx:7.5 | I gave only | love to the Kingdom because I believed that was what I was. What you |
| Tx:7.6 | of what you are and to create like Him is to share the perfect | love He shares with you. To this the Holy Spirit leads you that your |
| Tx:7.19 | difficulty in miracles, because they are all maximal expressions of | love. This has no range at all. The non-maximal only appears to have |
| Tx:7.38 | Spirit in both of you, because it is a refusal to acknowledge fear. | Love needs only this invitation. It comes freely to all the Sonship, |
| Tx:7.45 | Love is incapable of any exceptions. Only if there is fear does the | |
| Tx:7.49 | an idol which you may worship out of fear but which you will never | love. The other shows you only truth, which you will love, because |
| Tx:7.49 | you will never love. The other shows you only truth, which you will | love, because you will understand it. Understanding is appreciation, |
| Tx:7.49 | with, and by making it part of you, you have accepted it with | love. |
| Tx:7.50 | God Himself created you—in understanding, in appreciation, and in | love. The ego is totally unable to understand this, because it does |
| Tx:7.50 | understand what it makes; it does not appreciate it; and it does not | love it. It incorporates to take away. It literally believes that |
| Tx:7.53 | everyone and, by bringing it to your appreciation, calls upon you to | love God and His creations. You can appreciate the Sonship only as |
| Tx:7.54 | Although you can | love the Sonship only as one, you can perceive it as fragmented. It |
| Tx:7.54 | not relinquished entirely, it is not relinquished at all. Fear and | love are equally reciprocal. They make or create, depending on |
| Tx:7.54 | fearfully. He will appreciate all of them if he regards them with | love. |
| Tx:7.55 | The mind that accepts attack cannot | love. That is because it believes that it can destroy love and |
| Tx:7.55 | attack cannot love. That is because it believes that it can destroy | love and therefore does not understand what love is. If it does not |
| Tx:7.55 | that it can destroy love and therefore does not understand what | love is. If it does not understand what love is, it cannot perceive |
| Tx:7.55 | does not understand what love is. If it does not understand what | love is, it cannot perceive itself as loving. This loses the |
| Tx:7.57 | in totality. This unbelief is its origin and, while the ego does not | love you, it is faithful to its own antecedents, begetting as it was |
| Tx:7.58 | This is its allegiance, and this allegiance makes it treacherous to | love, because you are love. Love is your power, which the ego must |
| Tx:7.58 | and this allegiance makes it treacherous to love, because you are | love. Love is your power, which the ego must deny. It must also deny |
| Tx:7.58 | this allegiance makes it treacherous to love, because you are love. | Love is your power, which the ego must deny. It must also deny |
| Tx:7.60 | said that understanding brings appreciation, and appreciation brings | love. Nothing else can be understood, because nothing else is real, |
| Tx:7.70 | you will feel deprived. This is because denial is as total as | love. It is as impossible to deny part of the Sonship as it is to |
| Tx:7.70 | as love. It is as impossible to deny part of the Sonship as it is to | love it in part. Nor is it possible to love it totally at times. You |
| Tx:7.70 | of the Sonship as it is to love it in part. Nor is it possible to | love it totally at times. You cannot be totally committed sometimes. |
| Tx:7.73 | of yourselves is deprived, unloving, and very vulnerable. You cannot | love this. Yet you can very easily escape from it or, better, leave |
| Tx:7.76 | be apart from them, because you are not apart from Him. Rest in His | love and protect your rest by loving. But love everything He created |
| Tx:7.76 | from Him. Rest in His love and protect your rest by loving. But | love everything He created of which you are a part, or you cannot |
| Tx:7.80 | and you will attack, believing you have been attacked. But see the | love of God in you, and you will see it everywhere, because it is |
| Tx:7.82 | anger, but it is also true that without projection there can be no | love. Projection is a fundamental law of the mind and therefore one |
| Tx:7.106 | lesson in what joy is. Being a lesson in sharing, it is a lesson in | love, which is joy. Every miracle is thus a lesson in truth, and by |
| Tx:7.109 | to be a home for a Child of God? Does it protect his peace and shine | love upon him? Does it keep his heart untouched by fear and allow him |
| Tx:7.110 | You who could give the | love of God to everything you see and touch and remember are |
| Tx:8.14 | power and glory lie within it. It is boundless in strength and in | love and in peace. It has no boundaries because its extension is |
| Tx:8.28 | must despise and reject me, because the world is the belief that | love is impossible. Your reactions to me are the reactions of the |
| Tx:8.34 | of what they are and what He is. Freedom is creation, because it is | love. What you seek to imprison you do not love. Therefore, when you |
| Tx:8.34 | creation, because it is love. What you seek to imprison you do not | love. Therefore, when you seek to imprison anyone, including |
| Tx:8.34 | when you seek to imprison anyone, including yourself, you do not | love him, and you cannot identify with him. When you imprison |
| Tx:8.37 | you learn that there is no separation of your will and mine. Let the | love of God shine upon you by your acceptance of me. My reality is |
| Tx:8.45 | of God and those which are created like His? Your creations | love you as your Soul loves your Father for the gift of creation. |
| Tx:8.50 | and therefore as holy as He is. Through our creations, we extend our | love and thus increase the joy of the Holy Trinity. You do not |
| Tx:8.84 | substitution of the will to wake. The will to wake is the will to | love, since all healing involves replacing fear with love. The Holy |
| Tx:8.84 | is the will to love, since all healing involves replacing fear with | love. The Holy Spirit cannot distinguish among degrees of error, for |
| Tx:8.86 | to be entirely literal about fear and its effects but not about | love and its results. Thus, “hellfire” means “burning,” but raising |
| Tx:8.86 | Actually, it is particularly the references to the outcomes of | love which should be taken literally because the Bible is about love, |
| Tx:8.86 | of love which should be taken literally because the Bible is about | love, being about God. |
| Tx:8.87 | name of God's Son is one, and you are enjoined to do the works of | love, because we share this oneness. Our minds are whole because they |
| Tx:8.99 | cannot be real without a cause, and God is the only Cause. God is | Love, and you do want Him. This is your will. Ask for this and you |
| Tx:8.102 | The fact that God is | love does not require belief, but it does require acceptance. It is |
| Tx:8.102 | see because you are interfering with the laws of seeing. If you deny | love, you will not know it because your cooperation is the law of its |
| Tx:8.113 | I | love you for the truth in you, as God does. Your deceptions may |
| Tx:9.7 | errors are forgiven with yours. Atonement is no more separate than | love. Atonement cannot be separate, because it comes from love. Any |
| Tx:9.7 | than love. Atonement cannot be separate, because it comes from | love. Any attempt you make to correct a brother means that you |
| Tx:9.40 | It is perfectly obvious that if the Holy Spirit looks with | love on all He perceives, He looks with love on you. His evaluation |
| Tx:9.40 | the Holy Spirit looks with love on all He perceives, He looks with | love on you. His evaluation of you is based on His knowledge of what |
| Tx:9.40 | is the exact opposite of the Holy Spirit's, because the ego does not | love you. It is unaware of what you are and wholly mistrustful of |
| Tx:9.52 | of attack, but your grandeur is of God, Who created it out of His | Love. From your grandeur you can only bless, because your grandeur is |
| Tx:9.55 | It is easy to distinguish grandeur from grandiosity because | love is returned, but pride is not. Pride will not produce miracles |
| Tx:9.61 | be like Him. That is why your will is holy. Can anything exceed the | love of God? Can anything, then, exceed your will? Nothing can reach |
| Tx:9.64 | that it is as impossible for God. The law of creation is that you | love your creations as yourself because they are part of you. |
| Tx:9.64 | therefore perfectly safe, because the laws of God protect it by His | Love. Any part of your mind that does not know this has banished |
| Tx:9.74 | You have not attacked God, and you do | love Him. Can you change your reality? No one can will to destroy |
| Tx:9.76 | a Son of God can be sick is to believe that part of God can suffer. | Love cannot suffer, because it cannot attack. The remembrance of love |
| Tx:9.76 | Love cannot suffer, because it cannot attack. The remembrance of | love therefore brings invulnerability with it. |
| Tx:9.77 | believes in it, for your acceptance of God in him acknowledges the | love of God which he has forgotten. Your recognition of him as part |
| Tx:9.77 | Son of God is sick is to worship the same idol he does. God created | love, not idolatry. All forms of idolatry are caricatures of |
| Tx:9.79 | value in Heaven. It is not my merit that I contribute to you but my | love, for you do not value yourselves. When you do not value |
| Tx:9.83 | them either, for nothing cannot be fearful. You have chosen to fear | love because of its perfect harmlessness, and because of this fear, |
| Tx:9.98 | Him because you loved Him, knowing that if you recognized your | love for Him, you could not deny Him. Your denial of Him therefore |
| Tx:9.98 | you could not deny Him. Your denial of Him therefore means that you | love Him and that you know He loves you. Remember that what you deny, |
| Tx:9.99 | His. He calls to you from every part of the Sonship because of His | love for His Son. If you hear His message, He has answered you, and |
| Tx:9.99 | has answered you, and you will learn of Him if you hear aright. The | love of God is in everything He created, for His Son is everywhere. |
| Tx:9.100 | Do not look to the god of sickness for healing but only to the God of | love, for healing is the acknowledgment of Him. When you acknowledge |
| Tx:9.100 | to do this is blasphemy, for it means that you are looking without | love on God and His creation, from which He cannot be separated. Only |
| Tx:9.100 | which He cannot be separated. Only the eternal can be loved, for | love does not die. What is of God is His forever, and you are of God. |
| Tx:9.102 | realize how much you have denied yourself, and how much God in His | love would not have it so. Yet He would not interfere with you, |
| Tx:9.102 | Would you have Him share your insanity? God will never cease to | love His Son, and His Son will never cease to love Him. That was the |
| Tx:9.102 | will never cease to love His Son, and His Son will never cease to | love Him. That was the condition of His Son's creation, fixed forever |
| Tx:9.106 | is why to deny Him is to deny yourself. Arrogance is the denial of | love, because love shares and arrogance withholds. As long as both |
| Tx:9.106 | Him is to deny yourself. Arrogance is the denial of love, because | love shares and arrogance withholds. As long as both appear to you to |
| Tx:10.4 | Who hath need of you as I have. Will you not answer the call of | love with joy? |
| Tx:10.9 | as His Son, for yours were created in honor of Him. The universe of | love does not stop because you do not see it, and your closed eyes |
| Tx:10.10 | increased, and everything He creates has the function of creating. | Love does not limit, and what it creates is not limited. To give |
| Tx:10.10 | you the joy which is His and which He wills to share with you. Your | love is as boundless as His because it is His. |
| Tx:10.11 | Could any part of God be without His | love and could any part of His love be contained? God is your |
| Tx:10.11 | Could any part of God be without His love and could any part of His | love be contained? God is your heritage because His one gift is |
| Tx:10.18 | And denial is as total as | love. You cannot deny part of yourself because the remainder will |
| Tx:10.31 | lost because you are looking on what God created as yourself without | love. And since what He created is part of Him, you are denying Him |
| Tx:10.36 | you to be unable to enter the place where God would have you be. But | love yourself with the love of Christ, for so does your Father love |
| Tx:10.36 | the place where God would have you be. But love yourself with the | love of Christ, for so does your Father love you. You can refuse to |
| Tx:10.36 | But love yourself with the love of Christ, for so does your Father | love you. You can refuse to enter, but you cannot bar the door which |
| Tx:10.37 | Creator and shines with His glory. Christ is the extension of the | love and the loveliness of God, as perfect as his Creator and at |
| Tx:10.38 | Son, for there is no condemnation in the Father. Sharing the perfect | love of the Father, the Son must share what belongs to Him, for |
| Tx:10.49 | is the cost, and the ego cannot minimize it. For if you overlook | love, you are overlooking yourself, and you must fear unreality |
| Tx:10.52 | not accept it. For only the insane would choose fear in place of | love, and only the insane could believe that love can be gained by |
| Tx:10.52 | choose fear in place of love, and only the insane could believe that | love can be gained by attack. But the sane know that only attack |
| Tx:10.52 | But the sane know that only attack could produce fear from which the | love of God completely protects them. |
| Tx:10.65 | hands of God's Son and taken the last thorn from his forehead. The | love of God surrounds His Son, whom the god of the crucifixion |
| Tx:10.86 | the real world as you share Heaven, and his healing is yours. To | love yourself is to heal yourself, and you cannot perceive part of |
| Tx:10.86 | your own goal. Brother, we heal together as we live together and | love together. Be not deceived in God's Son, for he is one with |
| Tx:10.86 | in God's Son, for he is one with himself and one with his Father. | Love him who is beloved of His Father, and you will learn of the |
| Tx:10.86 | him who is beloved of His Father, and you will learn of the Father's | love for you. |
| Tx:11.6 | thoughts and his appeals for help, for both are capable of bringing | love into your awareness if you perceive them truly. And all your |
| Tx:11.10 | ultimate value to you in learning to perceive attack as a call for | love. We have learned surely that fear and attack are inevitably |
| Tx:11.10 | is, the unreality of fear must dawn upon you. For fear is a call for | love in unconscious recognition of what has been denied. |
| Tx:11.11 | for removing it and have demonstrated this by giving it. Fear and | love are the only emotions of which you are capable. One is false, |
| Tx:11.12 | fear becomes meaningless. You have denied its power to conceal | love, which was its only purpose. The mask which you have drawn |
| Tx:11.12 | its only purpose. The mask which you have drawn across the face of | love has disappeared. |
| Tx:11.13 | If you would look upon | love, which is the world's reality, how could you do better than to |
| Tx:11.13 | truth cannot be denied. Thus does the Holy Spirit replace fear with | love and translate error into truth. And thus will you learn of Him |
| Tx:11.14 | Miracles are merely the translation of denial into truth. If to | love oneself is to heal oneself, those who are sick do not love |
| Tx:11.14 | If to love oneself is to heal oneself, those who are sick do not | love themselves. Therefore, they are asking for the love that would |
| Tx:11.14 | are sick do not love themselves. Therefore, they are asking for the | love that would heal them but which they are denying to themselves. |
| Tx:11.16 | Perceive in sickness but another call for | love and offer your brother what he believes he cannot offer himself. |
| Tx:11.16 | the appeal for health is to recognize in hatred the call for | love. And to give a brother what he really wants is to offer it unto |
| Tx:11.16 | wills you to know your brother as yourself. Answer his call for | love and yours is answered. Healing is the love of Christ for His |
| Tx:11.16 | Answer his call for love and yours is answered. Healing is the | love of Christ for His Father and for Himself. |
| Tx:11.18 | you, for the goal is inevitable because it is eternal. The goal of | love is but your right, and it belongs to you despite your preference. |
| Tx:11.19 | for you must be yours. Do not let your hatred stand in the way of | love, for nothing can withstand the love of Christ for His Father or |
| Tx:11.19 | your hatred stand in the way of love, for nothing can withstand the | love of Christ for His Father or His Father's love for Him. |
| Tx:11.19 | can withstand the love of Christ for His Father or His Father's | love for Him. |
| Tx:11.21 | There is no fear in perfect | love. We will but be making perfect to you what is already perfect in |
| Tx:11.22 | You who have tried to banish | love have not succeeded, but you who choose to banish fear will |
| Tx:11.28 | can be saved and the only way to save it. Any response other than | love arises from a confusion about the “what” and the “how” of |
| Tx:11.32 | loved the world that He gave it to His only-begotten Son. God does | love the real world, and those who perceive its reality cannot see |
| Tx:11.36 | The ego is certain that | love is dangerous, and this is always its central teaching. It never |
| Tx:11.36 | that the ego is salvation is intensely engaged in the search for | love. Yet the ego, though encouraging the search very actively, makes |
| Tx:11.37 | journey which must end in perceived self-defeat. For the ego cannot | love, and in its frantic search for love, it is seeking what it is |
| Tx:11.37 | self-defeat. For the ego cannot love, and in its frantic search for | love, it is seeking what it is afraid to find. The search is |
| Tx:11.38 | no one wants to find what would utterly defeat him. Being unable to | love, the ego would be totally inadequate in love's presence, for it |
| Tx:11.38 | you the response pattern you need. The ego will therefore distort | love and teach you that love calls forth the responses which the ego |
| Tx:11.38 | you need. The ego will therefore distort love and teach you that | love calls forth the responses which the ego can teach. Follow its |
| Tx:11.38 | ego can teach. Follow its teaching, then, and you will search for | love but will not recognize it. |
| Tx:11.39 | you. For He will never deceive God's Son, whom He loves with the | love of the Father. |
| Tx:11.43 | Only | love is strong because it is undivided. The strong do not attack |
| Tx:11.46 | The Holy Spirit's | love is your strength, for yours is divided and therefore not real. |
| Tx:11.46 | is divided and therefore not real. You could not trust your own | love when you have attacked it. You cannot learn of perfect love with |
| Tx:11.46 | your own love when you have attacked it. You cannot learn of perfect | love with a split mind because a split mind has made itself a poor |
| Tx:11.48 | You do not know the meaning of | love, and that is your handicap. Do not attempt to teach yourselves |
| Tx:11.50 | This kind of “learning” has so weakened your mind that you cannot | love, for the curriculum you have chosen is against love and amounts |
| Tx:11.50 | that you cannot love, for the curriculum you have chosen is against | love and amounts to a course in how to attack yourself. A necessary |
| Tx:11.55 | only thing of value in it is whatever part of it you look upon with | love. This gives it the only reality it will ever have. Its value is |
| Tx:11.56 | Christ's eyes are open, and He will look upon whatever you see with | love if you accept His vision as yours. |
| Tx:11.58 | which He would share with you because He knows of the Father's | love for Him. And knowing this, He would give you what is yours. In |
| Tx:11.58 | He waits for you at His Father's altar, holding out the Father's | love to you in the quiet light of the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the |
| Tx:11.59 | Christ, for his Being is in Christ as Christ's is in God. Christ's | love for you is His love for His Father, which He knows because He |
| Tx:11.59 | is in Christ as Christ's is in God. Christ's love for you is His | love for His Father, which He knows because He knows His Father's |
| Tx:11.59 | love for His Father, which He knows because He knows His Father's | love for Him. When the Holy Spirit has at last led you to Christ at |
| Tx:11.59 | holy that its transfer to holiness is merely its natural extension. | Love transfers to love without any interference, for the situations |
| Tx:11.59 | to holiness is merely its natural extension. Love transfers to | love without any interference, for the situations are identical. |
| Tx:11.60 | has always been. There the Redeemer and the redeemed join in perfect | love of God and of each other. Heaven is your home, and being in God, |
| Tx:11.66 | find. The ego finds what it seeks and only that. It does not find | love, for that is not what it is seeking. Yet seeking and finding are |
| Tx:11.69 | When you want only | love you will see nothing else. The contradictory nature of the |
| Tx:11.69 | decision about reality, returning to you the message you gave them. | Love is recognized by its messengers. If you make love manifest, its |
| Tx:11.69 | you gave them. Love is recognized by its messengers. If you make | love manifest, its messengers will come to you because you invited |
| Tx:11.70 | is only what you gave it. You cannot really give anything but | love to anyone or anything, nor can you really receive anything else |
| Tx:11.77 | and yet you are surprised that you cannot see it. If you seek | love in order to attack it, you will never find it. For if love is |
| Tx:11.77 | you seek love in order to attack it, you will never find it. For if | love is sharing, how can you find it except through itself? Offer it |
| Tx:11.78 | the Son knows his Father's protection and cannot fear. His Father's | love holds him in perfect peace, and needing nothing, he asks for |
| Tx:11.80 | Because of your Father's | love you can never forget Him, for no one can forget what God Himself |
| Tx:11.83 | God did not give you has no power over you, and the attraction of | love for love remains irresistible. For it is the function of love to |
| Tx:11.83 | not give you has no power over you, and the attraction of love for | love remains irresistible. For it is the function of love to unite |
| Tx:11.83 | of love for love remains irresistible. For it is the function of | love to unite all things unto itself, and to hold all things together |
| Tx:11.84 | the way back to what was never lost. Your Father could not cease to | love His Son. |
| Tx:11.85 | of attack. It is the judgment of one mind by another as unworthy of | love and deserving of punishment. But herein lies the split. For the |
| Tx:11.86 | brain, and its powers decline if their bodies are hurt. They seem to | love, yet they desert and are deserted. They appear to lose what they |
| Tx:11.86 | yet they desert and are deserted. They appear to lose what they | love, perhaps the most insane belief of all. And their bodies wither |
| Tx:11.87 | his children to this as the price of salvation and be loving. | Love does not kill to save. If it did, attack would be salvation, and |
| Tx:11.88 | the eternal fact that God's Son is not guilty. He deserves only | love because he has given only love. He cannot be condemned because |
| Tx:11.88 | Son is not guilty. He deserves only love because he has given only | love. He cannot be condemned because he has never condemned. The |
| Tx:11.89 | they know. The Holy Spirit wills only this, for sharing the Father's | love for His Son, He wills to remove all guilt from his mind that he |
| Tx:11.89 | are antithetical, and the Father can be remembered only in peace. | Love and guilt cannot coexist, and to accept one is to deny the |
| Tx:11.94 | condition of his Being, which is his perfect blamelessness. Out of | love he was created, and in love he abides. Goodness and mercy have |
| Tx:11.94 | is his perfect blamelessness. Out of love he was created, and in | love he abides. Goodness and mercy have always followed him, for he |
| Tx:11.94 | and mercy have always followed him, for he has always extended the | love of his Father. |
| Tx:12.9 | understanding lies your remembering, for it is the recognition of | love without fear. There will be great joy in Heaven on your |
| Tx:12.12 | Your fear of attack is nothing compared to your fear of | love. You would be willing to look even upon your savage wish to kill |
| Tx:12.12 | wish to kill God's Son if you did not believe that it saves you from | love. For this wish caused the separation. You have protected it |
| Tx:12.12 | you realize that, by removing the dark cloud that obscures it, your | love for your Father would impel you to answer His call and leap into |
| Tx:12.12 | and much stronger than it will ever be, is your intense and burning | love of God, and His for you. This is what you really want to hide. |
| Tx:12.13 | it not harder for you to say “I love” than “I hate”? You associate | love with weakness and hatred with strength, and your own real power |
| Tx:12.13 | For you could not control your joyous response to the call of | love if you heard it, and the whole world you think you control would |
| Tx:12.14 | be helpless in God's Presence, and you would save yourself from His | love because you think it would crush you into nothingness. You are |
| Tx:12.14 | which you would. Therefore, you have used the world to cover your | love, and the deeper you go into the blackness of the ego's |
| Tx:12.14 | the blackness of the ego's foundation, the closer you come to the | love that is hidden there. And it is this that frightens you. |
| Tx:12.15 | You can accept insanity because you made it, but you cannot accept | love because you did not. You would rather be slaves of the |
| Tx:12.15 | as what you made. You are more afraid of God than of the ego, and | love cannot enter where it is not welcome. But hatred can, for it |
| Tx:12.18 | which you hold so dear, is your real call for help. For you call for | love to your Father as your Father calls you to Himself. In that |
| Tx:12.18 | no illusions can satisfy him or save him from what he is. Only his | love is real, and he will be content only with his reality. |
| Tx:12.19 | of your Father in peace and joy. But exempt no one from your | love, or you will be hiding a dark place in your mind where the Holy |
| Tx:12.19 | exempt yourself from His healing power, for by not offering total | love, you will not be healed completely. Healing must be as complete |
| Tx:12.19 | not be healed completely. Healing must be as complete as fear, for | love cannot enter where there is one spot of fear to mar its welcome. |
| Tx:12.21 | everything and found nothing. For how could the gentleness of | love respond to his demands except by departing in peace and |
| Tx:12.22 | see them as insane. But seek this place, and you will find it, for | love is in you and will lead you there. |
| Tx:12.23 | afraid of this course should be apparent. For this is a course on | love because it is about you. You have been told that your function |
| Tx:12.33 | We have said that you have but two emotions, | love and fear. One is changeless but continually exchanged, being |
| Tx:12.37 | world you react to each of them as though it were the other. For | love cannot abide in a world apart, where when it comes it is not |
| Tx:12.37 | he loves and recoils from what he fears. And you react with fear to | love and draw away from it. Yet fear attracts you, and believing it |
| Tx:12.37 | and draw away from it. Yet fear attracts you, and believing it is | love, you call it to yourself. Your private world is filled with the |
| Tx:12.37 | with the figures of fear you have invited into it, and all the | love your brothers offer you, you do not see. As you look with open |
| Tx:12.40 | in your brothers because you denied it in yourself. For you will | love them, and by drawing nigh unto them, you will draw them to |
| Tx:12.42 | Who looks on all in light. Your vision comes from fear, as His from | love. And He sees for you as your witness to the real world. He is |
| Tx:12.43 | you will see as you look with Him, for His vision is His gift of | love to you, given Him of the Father for you. |
| Tx:12.44 | Him. In the sanity of His vision, they looked upon themselves with | love, seeing themselves as the Holy Spirit sees them. And with this |
| Tx:12.54 | you see in light brings your light closer to your own awareness. | Love always leads to love. The sick who ask for love are grateful for |
| Tx:12.54 | brings your light closer to your own awareness. Love always leads to | love. The sick who ask for love are grateful for it, and in their |
| Tx:12.54 | your own awareness. Love always leads to love. The sick who ask for | love are grateful for it, and in their joy, they shine with holy |
| Tx:12.55 | aside the world and find another. This other world is bright with | love, which you have given it. And here will everything remind you of |
| Tx:12.56 | Awakening unto Christ is following the laws of | love of your free will and out of quiet recognition of the truth in |
| Tx:12.56 | willingly, and willingness is signified by giving. Those who accept | love of you become your willing witnesses to the love you gave them, |
| Tx:12.56 | Those who accept love of you become your willing witnesses to the | love you gave them, and it is they who hold it out to you. In sleep |
| Tx:12.57 | And yet the laws of | love are not suspended because you sleep. And you have followed them |
| Tx:12.62 | Yet the real world has the power to touch you even here because you | love it. And what you call with love will come to you. Love always |
| Tx:12.62 | to touch you even here because you love it. And what you call with | love will come to you. Love always answers, being unable to deny a |
| Tx:12.62 | because you love it. And what you call with love will come to you. | Love always answers, being unable to deny a call for help or not to |
| Tx:12.63 | the past behind and enter into the world He holds out to you in | love. |
| Tx:12.64 | that he loves what he loves not and following not the road that | love points out. Love leads so gladly! And as you follow Him, you |
| Tx:12.64 | what he loves not and following not the road that love points out. | Love leads so gladly! And as you follow Him, you will rejoice that |
| Tx:12.65 | Who watches over him in everything. The world about him shines with | love because God placed him in Himself where pain is not and love |
| Tx:12.65 | with love because God placed him in Himself where pain is not and | love surrounds him without end or flaw. Disturbance of his peace can |
| Tx:12.65 | Disturbance of his peace can never be. In perfect sanity he looks on | love, for it is all about him and within him. He must deny the world |
| Tx:12.65 | He must deny the world of pain the instant he perceives the arms of | love around him. And from this point of safety, he looks quietly |
| Tx:12.66 | it now. God loves His Son forever, and His Son returns his Father's | love forever. The real world is the way that leads you to remembrance |
| Tx:12.67 | what you want is the exchange of nightmares for the happy dreams of | love. In these lie your true perceptions, for the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:12.67 | all perception is. Knowledge needs no correction. Yet the dreams of | love lead unto knowledge. In them you see nothing fearful, and |
| Tx:12.67 | and because of this, they are the welcome that you offer knowledge. | Love waits on welcome, not on time, and the real world is but your |
| Tx:13.4 | in time, and that is why Christ's vision looks on everything with | love. Yet even Christ's vision is not His reality. The golden aspects |
| Tx:13.15 | in one is faith in the other, calling for punishment instead of | love. Nothing can justify insanity, and to call for punishment upon |
| Tx:13.19 | you and learn that what you feared was there has been replaced with | love. |
| Tx:13.22 | they will not look within and let it go. They cannot know they | love and cannot understand what loving is. Their main concern is to |
| Tx:13.28 | have been unmerciful unto yourselves do not remember your Father's | Love. And looking without mercy upon your brothers, you do not |
| Tx:13.28 | without mercy upon your brothers, you do not remember how much you | love Him. Yet it is forever true. In shining peace within you is the |
| Tx:13.29 | released. There is no other way to look within and see the light of | love shining as steadily and as surely as God Himself has always |
| Tx:13.29 | always loved His Son. And as His son loves Him. There is no fear in | love, for love is guiltless. You who have always loved your Father |
| Tx:13.29 | His Son. And as His son loves Him. There is no fear in love, for | love is guiltless. You who have always loved your Father can have no |
| Tx:13.30 | enter into real relationships with any of God's Sons unless you | love them all and equally. Love is not special. If you single out |
| Tx:13.30 | with any of God's Sons unless you love them all and equally. | Love is not special. If you single out part of the Sonship for your |
| Tx:13.30 | Love is not special. If you single out part of the Sonship for your | love, you are imposing guilt on all your relationships and making |
| Tx:13.30 | guilt on all your relationships and making them unreal. You can | love only as God loves. Seek not to love unlike Him, for there is no |
| Tx:13.30 | and making them unreal. You can love only as God loves. Seek not to | love unlike Him, for there is no love apart from His. Until you |
| Tx:13.30 | love only as God loves. Seek not to love unlike Him, for there is no | love apart from His. Until you recognize that this is true, you will |
| Tx:13.30 | Until you recognize that this is true, you will have no idea what | love is like. No one who condemns a brother can see himself as |
| Tx:13.32 | loving, is bright within you. Let us look upon him together and | love him. For in our love of him is your guiltlessness. But look upon |
| Tx:13.32 | within you. Let us look upon him together and love him. For in our | love of him is your guiltlessness. But look upon yourself, and |
| Tx:13.33 | my belief are centered on what I treasure. The difference is that I | love only what God loves with me, and because of this, I treasure you |
| Tx:13.33 | on yourselves, even unto the worth that God has placed upon you. I | love all that He created, and all my faith and my belief I offer unto |
| Tx:13.33 | and my belief I offer unto it. My faith in you is strong as all the | love I give my Father. My trust in you is without limit and without |
| Tx:13.34 | blamelessness. God loves you. Could I, then, lack faith in you and | love Him perfectly? |
| Tx:13.51 | And it is these, and not the truth, that he has chosen to defend and | love. They will not be taken from him. But they can be given up by |
| Tx:13.58 | will find no deception there but only the simple truth. And you will | love it because you will understand it. |
| Tx:13.66 | therefore to yourself gently, but with the conviction born of the | love of God and of His Son, |
| Tx:13.70 | is another opportunity to replace darkness with light and fear with | love. If he refuses it, he binds himself to darkness because he did |
| Tx:13.79 | Madness may be your choice, but not your reality. Never forget the | love of God, Who has remembered you. For it is quite impossible that |
| Tx:13.80 | which the Holy Spirit makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and His | love and teach His answer to everyone who struggles in the dark. For |
| Tx:13.81 | How gracious is it to decide all things through Him Whose equal | love is given equally to all alike! He leaves you no one outside |
| Tx:13.81 | and do not reconsider. Trust Him to answer quickly, surely, and with | love for everyone who will be touched in any way by the decision. And |
| Tx:13.90 | be anyone without His Holiness nor anyone unworthy of His perfect | Love. Fail not in your function of loving in a loveless place made |
| Tx:13.90 | you His blameless Son. For this small gift of appreciation for His | Love, God will Himself exchange your gift for His. |
| Tx:13.91 | loving not the Son of God and trying to teach him guilt instead of | love. Give up this frantic and insane attempt, which cheats you of |
| Tx:13.91 | joy of living with your God and Father, and awaking gladly to His | love and holiness, which join together as the truth in you, making |
| Tx:14.5 | Would you have all of it transformed into a radiant message of God's | Love, to share with all the lonely ones who denied Him with you? God |
| Tx:14.6 | but He Who knows is with you. His gentleness is yours, and all the | love you share with God He holds in trust for you. He would teach you |
| Tx:14.12 | guilt alone. The power of God draws everyone to its safe embrace of | love and union. Stand quietly within this circle and attract all |
| Tx:14.14 | gentleness, He would release from fear and reestablish the reign of | love. The power of love is in His gentleness, which is of God and |
| Tx:14.14 | release from fear and reestablish the reign of love. The power of | love is in His gentleness, which is of God and therefore cannot |
| Tx:14.17 | hidden and therefore nothing is fearful. Attack will always yield to | love if it is brought to love, not hidden from it. There is no |
| Tx:14.17 | is fearful. Attack will always yield to love if it is brought to | love, not hidden from it. There is no darkness that the light of love |
| Tx:14.17 | to love, not hidden from it. There is no darkness that the light of | love will not dispel, unless it is concealed from love's beneficence. |
| Tx:14.17 | it is concealed from love's beneficence. What is kept apart from | love cannot share its healing power, because it has been separated |
| Tx:14.18 | be so no longer. Without protection of obscurity, only the light of | love remains, for only this has meaning and can live in light. |
| Tx:14.21 | effort to communicate through not communicating holds enough of | love to make it meaningful if its interpreter is not its maker. You |
| Tx:14.28 | will not let it go. Truth does not struggle against ignorance, and | love does not attack fear. What needs no protection does not defend |
| Tx:14.31 | have you have. Behold your will, accepting it as His, with all His | love as yours. All honor to you through Him, and through Him unto God. |
| Tx:14.34 | with His Son is quite impossible here. Unbroken and uninterrupted | love flows constantly between the Father and the Son, as both would |
| Tx:14.41 | In the temple Holiness waits quietly for the return of them that | love it. The Presence knows they will return to purity and to grace. |
| Tx:14.41 | sense of pain and loss with the immortal assurance of their Father's | Love. There, fear of death will be replaced with joy of living. For |
| Tx:14.52 | all is the Holy Spirit's one division into two categories—one of | love and the other the call for love. You cannot safely make this |
| Tx:14.52 | into two categories—one of love and the other the call for | love. You cannot safely make this division, for you are much too |
| Tx:14.52 | this division, for you are much too confused either to recognize | love or to believe that everything else is nothing but a need for |
| Tx:14.52 | love or to believe that everything else is nothing but a need for | love. You are too bound to form and not to content. What you consider |
| Tx:14.55 | give only the answer with which He answers you. Everyone seeks for | love as you do and knows it not unless he joins with you in seeking |
| Tx:14.56 | Let the Holy Spirit show him to you and teach you both his | love and need for love. Neither his mind nor yours holds more than |
| Tx:14.56 | Holy Spirit show him to you and teach you both his love and need for | love. Neither his mind nor yours holds more than these two orders of |
| Tx:14.57 | The miracle is the recognition that this is true. Where there is | love, your brother must give it to you because of what it is. But |
| Tx:14.57 | give it to you because of what it is. But where there is need for | love, you must give it because of what you are. Long ago we said this |
| Tx:14.57 | His Son forever, will bless each recognition of His Son with all the | love He holds for him. Nor will the power of all His love be absent |
| Tx:14.57 | with all the love He holds for him. Nor will the power of all His | love be absent from any miracle you offer to His Son. How, then, can |
| Tx:15.14 | it takes to reestablish perfect sanity, perfect peace, and perfect | love for everyone, for God, and for yourself. As long as it takes to |
| Tx:15.24 | the time. The lesson will seem hard at first, but you will learn to | love it when you realize that it is true and constitutes a tribute to |
| Tx:15.30 | born in you in honor of Him Whose host you are. You know not what | love means because you have sought to purchase it with little gifts, |
| Tx:15.30 | thus valuing it too little to be able to understand its magnitude. | Love is not little, and love dwells in you, for you are host to Him. |
| Tx:15.30 | to be able to understand its magnitude. Love is not little, and | love dwells in you, for you are host to Him. Before the greatness |
| Tx:15.32 | that everything I learned is yours. What my Father loves, I | love as He does, and I can no more accept it as what it is not than |
| Tx:15.45 | would be chaos. Yet I assure you that without the ego all would be | love. |
| Tx:15.46 | for meeting them on your own terms. We said before that to limit | love to part of the Sonship is to bring guilt into your relationships |
| Tx:15.47 | You cannot | love parts of reality and understand what love means. If you would |
| Tx:15.47 | You cannot love parts of reality and understand what | love means. If you would love unlike to God, Who knows no special |
| Tx:15.47 | love parts of reality and understand what love means. If you would | love unlike to God, Who knows no special love, how can you understand |
| Tx:15.47 | love means. If you would love unlike to God, Who knows no special | love, how can you understand it? To believe that special |
| Tx:15.47 | understand it? To believe that special relationships, with special | love, can offer you salvation is the belief that separation is |
| Tx:15.48 | shift and change so frequently. They are not based on changeless | love alone. And love where fear has entered cannot be depended on |
| Tx:15.48 | so frequently. They are not based on changeless love alone. And | love where fear has entered cannot be depended on because it is not |
| Tx:15.48 | to truth. Under His teaching, every relationship becomes a lesson in | love. |
| Tx:15.49 | but His. All the guilt in it arises from your use of it. All the | love from His. Do not, then, be afraid to let go your imagined needs, |
| Tx:15.50 | offered to the Holy Spirit for His use. There is no substitute for | love. If you would attempt to substitute one aspect of love for |
| Tx:15.50 | for love. If you would attempt to substitute one aspect of | love for another, you have placed less value on one and more on the |
| Tx:15.50 | them as they were not. Unless you had seen yourself as without | love, you could not have judged them so like you in lack. |
| Tx:15.53 | only here. For in the holy instant, free of the past, you see that | love is in you, and you have no need to look without and snatch it |
| Tx:15.54 | And united in your blessing, it becomes one to you. The meaning of | love is the meaning God gave to it. Give to it any meaning apart from |
| Tx:15.55 | God has created it beyond judgment out of His need to extend His | Love. With love in you, you have no need except to extend it. In the |
| Tx:15.55 | created it beyond judgment out of His need to extend His Love. With | love in you, you have no need except to extend it. In the holy |
| Tx:15.55 | reaches to eternity and to the Mind of God. And it is only there | love has meaning, and only there can it be understood. |
| Tx:15.57 | yourself because you are unwilling to accept the fact that perfect | love is in you. And so you seek without for what you cannot find |
| Tx:15.57 | appreciation of his worth, we cannot doubt his holiness. And so we | love him. |
| Tx:15.59 | not find it difficult to believe that, when another calls on God for | love, your call remains as strong. Nor do you think that, by God's |
| Tx:15.60 | lies peace, for here there is no conflict. In the world of scarcity, | love has no meaning, and peace is impossible. For gain and loss are |
| Tx:15.60 | gain and loss are both accepted, and so no one is aware that perfect | love is in him. In the holy instant, you recognize the idea of love |
| Tx:15.60 | love is in him. In the holy instant, you recognize the idea of | love in you and unite this idea with the mind that thought it and |
| Tx:15.60 | but completion. From this it follows you can only give. And this is | love, for this alone is natural under the laws of God. |
| Tx:15.62 | drawn irresistibly into the light behind it can have faith in | love without fear. Yet the Holy Spirit gives you this faith because |
| Tx:15.65 | Beyond the poor attraction of the special | love relationship and always obscured by it is the powerful |
| Tx:15.65 | the powerful attraction of the Father for His Son. There is no other | love that can satisfy you, because there is no other love. This is |
| Tx:15.65 | is no other love that can satisfy you, because there is no other | love. This is the only love that is fully given and fully returned. |
| Tx:15.65 | can satisfy you, because there is no other love. This is the only | love that is fully given and fully returned. Being complete, it asks |
| Tx:15.66 | no one recognizes it. For the ego always seems to attract through | love and has no attraction at all to anyone who perceives that it |
| Tx:15.70 | sees it and recognizes that no one could interpret direct attack as | love. Yet to make guilty is direct attack but does not seem to be. |
| Tx:15.71 | hates him for it. Yet this is what he thinks he wants. He is not in | love with the other at all. He merely believes he is in love with |
| Tx:15.71 | He is not in love with the other at all. He merely believes he is in | love with sacrifice. And for this sacrifice, which he demanded of |
| Tx:15.74 | many forms, but it cannot long deceive those who will learn that | love brings no guilt at all, and what brings guilt cannot be love and |
| Tx:15.74 | that love brings no guilt at all, and what brings guilt cannot be | love and must be anger. All anger is nothing more than an attempt to |
| Tx:15.81 | to yourselves. Fear not to give redemption over to your Redeemer's | love. He will not fail you, for He comes from One Who cannot fail. |
| Tx:15.81 | it calls to everyone to escape from loneliness and join you in your | love. And where you are must everyone seek and find you there. |
| Tx:15.88 | unto creation, which is the only purpose for which it was given you. | Love would always give increase. Limits are demanded by the ego, |
| Tx:15.89 | If you would but let the Holy Spirit tell you of the | love of God for you and the need your creations have to be with you |
| Tx:15.90 | your power, being His, is as great as His, you can turn away from | love. What you invest in guilt, you withdraw from God. And your sight |
| Tx:15.95 | the ego takes many forms, it is always the same idea. What is not | love is always fear and nothing else. It is not necessary to follow |
| Tx:15.96 | from sacrifice means nothing to you. Your confusion of sacrifice and | love is so profound that you cannot conceive of love without |
| Tx:15.96 | of sacrifice and love is so profound that you cannot conceive of | love without sacrifice. And it is this that you must look upon— |
| Tx:15.96 | And it is this that you must look upon—sacrifice is attack, not | love. If you would accept but this one idea, your fear of love would |
| Tx:15.96 | not love. If you would accept but this one idea, your fear of | love would vanish. Guilt cannot last when the idea of sacrifice has |
| Tx:15.98 | as but a cover for the one idea that hides behind them all—that | love demands sacrifice and is therefore inseparable from attack and |
| Tx:15.98 | inseparable from attack and fear. And that guilt is the price of | love, which must be paid by fear. How fearful, then, has God become |
| Tx:15.98 | has God become to you, and how great a sacrifice do you believe His | love demands! For total love would demand total sacrifice. And so the |
| Tx:15.98 | and how great a sacrifice do you believe His love demands! For total | love would demand total sacrifice. And so the ego seems to demand |
| Tx:15.98 | to be feared a little, but the other to be destroyed. For you see | love as destructive, and your only question is who is to be |
| Tx:15.98 | completely. And this you think saves you from God, Whose total | love would completely destroy you. |
| Tx:15.102 | One, and no thought alien to His Oneness can abide with Him there. | Love must be total to give Him welcome, for the Presence of Holiness |
| Tx:15.103 | without pain there can be no sacrifice. And without sacrifice, there | love must be. |
| Tx:15.104 | You who believe that sacrifice is | love must learn that sacrifice is separation from love. For sacrifice |
| Tx:15.104 | that sacrifice is love must learn that sacrifice is separation from | love. For sacrifice brings guilt as surely as love brings peace. |
| Tx:15.104 | is separation from love. For sacrifice brings guilt as surely as | love brings peace. Guilt is the condition of sacrifice, as peace is |
| Tx:15.105 | the deprivation, attack becomes salvation, and sacrifice becomes | love. |
| Tx:15.106 | So is it that in all your seeking for | love, you seek for sacrifice and find it. Yet you find not love. It |
| Tx:15.106 | for love, you seek for sacrifice and find it. Yet you find not | love. It is impossible to deny what love is and still recognize it. |
| Tx:15.106 | and find it. Yet you find not love. It is impossible to deny what | love is and still recognize it. The meaning of love lies in what you |
| Tx:15.106 | to deny what love is and still recognize it. The meaning of | love lies in what you have cast outside yourself, and it has no |
| Tx:15.107 | In the holy instant, the condition of | love is met, for minds are joined without the body's interference, |
| Tx:15.107 | peace. The Prince of Peace was born to reestablish the condition of | love by teaching that communication remains unbroken, even if the |
| Tx:15.108 | would teach to all my brothers is that sacrifice is nowhere and | love is everywhere. For communication embraces everything, and in the |
| Tx:15.108 | embraces everything, and in the peace it re-establishes, | love comes of itself. Let no despair darken the joy of Christmas, for |
| Tx:15.108 | by demanding no sacrifice of anyone, for so will you offer me the | love I offer you. What can be more joyous than to perceive we are |
| Tx:16.7 | The meaning of | love is lost in any relationship which looks to weakness and hopes to |
| Tx:16.7 | lost in any relationship which looks to weakness and hopes to find | love there. The power of love, which is its meaning, lies in the |
| Tx:16.7 | which looks to weakness and hopes to find love there. The power of | love, which is its meaning, lies in the strength of God, which hovers |
| Tx:16.17 | you not look with greater charity on whom God loves with perfect | love? |
| Tx:16.18 | Do not interpret against God's | Love, for you have many witnesses which speak of it so clearly that |
| Tx:16.19 | sure and wholly kind to everyone and everything. There is no greater | love than to accept this and be glad. For love asks only that you be |
| Tx:16.19 | There is no greater love than to accept this and be glad. For | love asks only that you be happy and will give you everything that |
| Tx:16.27 | honor Him. And you will learn His power and strength and purity, and | love Him as His Father does. His Kingdom has no limits and no end, |
| Tx:16.30 | in looking at it. It would be impossible not to know the meaning of | love except for this. For the special love relationship, in which the |
| Tx:16.30 | not to know the meaning of love except for this. For the special | love relationship, in which the meaning of love is lost, is |
| Tx:16.30 | for this. For the special love relationship, in which the meaning of | love is lost, is undertaken solely to offset the hate but not to let |
| Tx:16.30 | open eyes as you look on this. You cannot limit hate. The special | love relationship will not offset it but will merely drive it |
| Tx:16.30 | no attempt to hide it. For it is the attempt to balance hate with | love that makes love meaningless to you. The extent of the split that |
| Tx:16.30 | hide it. For it is the attempt to balance hate with love that makes | love meaningless to you. The extent of the split that lies in this |
| Tx:16.31 | The symbols of hate against the symbols of | love play out a conflict which does not exist. For symbols stand for |
| Tx:16.31 | not exist. For symbols stand for something else, and the symbol of | love is without meaning if love is everything. You will go through |
| Tx:16.31 | for something else, and the symbol of love is without meaning if | love is everything. You will go through this last undoing quite |
| Tx:16.31 | safety, translated quietly from war to peace. For the illusion of | love will never satisfy, but its reality, which awaits you on the |
| Tx:16.32 | The special | love relationship is an attempt to limit the destructive effects of |
| Tx:16.32 | to build barricades against it and keep within them. The special | love relationship is not perceived as a value in itself, but as a |
| Tx:16.32 | of safety from which hatred is split off and kept apart. The special | love partner is acceptable only as long as he serves this purpose. |
| Tx:16.32 | the relationship, but it is still held together by the illusion of | love. If the illusion goes, the relationship is broken or becomes |
| Tx:16.33 | Love is not an illusion. It is a fact. Where disillusionment is | |
| Tx:16.33 | It is a fact. Where disillusionment is possible, there was not | love but hate. For hate is an illusion, and what can change was never |
| Tx:16.33 | but hate. For hate is an illusion, and what can change was never | love. It is certain that those who select certain ones as partners in |
| Tx:16.33 | with guilt rather than die of it. This is the choice they see. And | love to them is only an escape from death. They seek it desperately |
| Tx:16.33 | them. And when they find the fear of death is still upon them, the | love relationship loses the illusion that it is what it is not. For |
| Tx:16.34 | There are no triumphs of | love. Only hate is concerned with the “triumph of love” at all. The |
| Tx:16.34 | hate is concerned with the “triumph of love” at all. The illusion of | love can triumph over the illusion of hate, but always at the price |
| Tx:16.34 | illusions. As long as the illusion of hatred lasts, so long will | love be an illusion to you. And then the only choice which remains |
| Tx:16.35 | Your task is not to seek for | love but merely to seek and find all of the barriers within yourself |
| Tx:16.35 | to escape from one illusion into another must fail. If you seek | love outside yourself, you can be certain that you perceive hatred |
| Tx:16.35 | and are afraid of it. Yet peace will never come from the illusion of | love, but only from its reality. |
| Tx:16.36 | recognized if it is to be distinguished from illusion: The special | love relationship is an attempt [to bring love into separation. And, |
| Tx:16.36 | from illusion: The special love relationship is an attempt [to bring | love into separation. And, as such, it is nothing more than an |
| Tx:16.36 | And, as such, it is nothing more than an attempt] to bring | love into fear and make it real in fear. In fundamental violation of |
| Tx:16.36 | in fear. In fundamental violation of love's condition, the special | love relationship would accomplish the impossible. How but in |
| Tx:16.37 | own completion, and it is they who render you complete. The special | love relationship is but a shabby substitute for what makes you whole |
| Tx:16.39 | thus denies the wholeness of your Father. Every fantasy, be it of | love or hate, deprives you of knowledge, for fantasies are the veil |
| Tx:16.40 | Would you not go through fear to | love? For such the journey seems to be. Love calls, but hate would |
| Tx:16.40 | you not go through fear to love? For such the journey seems to be. | Love calls, but hate would have you stay. Hear not the call of hate, |
| Tx:16.40 | completion is His? He loves you wholly without illusion, as you must | love. For love is wholly without illusion and therefore wholly |
| Tx:16.40 | is His? He loves you wholly without illusion, as you must love. For | love is wholly without illusion and therefore wholly without fear. |
| Tx:16.40 | and your ability to remember. In Him are joined your willingness to | love and all the love of God, Who forgot you not. |
| Tx:16.40 | to remember. In Him are joined your willingness to love and all the | love of God, Who forgot you not. |
| Tx:16.42 | safe forever because you are complete forever. There is no veil the | love of God in us together cannot lift. The way to truth is open. |
| Tx:16.44 | the Sonship open to attack and unprotected from it. The special | love relationship is the ego's chief weapon for keeping you from |
| Tx:16.44 | you value it and why, you will realize what it must be. The special | love relationship is the ego's most boasted gift, and one which has |
| Tx:16.44 | to be acceptable and even natural. No one considers it bizarre to | love and hate together, and even those who believe that hate is sin |
| Tx:16.45 | exactly opposite of what is true. In Heaven, where the meaning of | love is known, love is the same as union. Here, where the illusion of |
| Tx:16.45 | of what is true. In Heaven, where the meaning of love is known, | love is the same as union. Here, where the illusion of love is |
| Tx:16.45 | is known, love is the same as union. Here, where the illusion of | love is accepted in love's place, love is perceived as separation and |
| Tx:16.45 | union. Here, where the illusion of love is accepted in love's place, | love is perceived as separation and exclusion. |
| Tx:16.46 | is in the special relationship, born of the hidden wish for special | love from God, that the ego's hatred triumphs. For the special |
| Tx:16.46 | triumphs. For the special relationship is the renunciation of the | love of God and the attempt to secure for the self the specialness |
| Tx:16.51 | and the perception of the giving of specialness as an act of | love would make love hateful. And the real purpose of the special |
| Tx:16.51 | perception of the giving of specialness as an act of love would make | love hateful. And the real purpose of the special relationship, in |
| Tx:16.54 | Whenever any form of special relationship tempts you to seek for | love in ritual, remember love is content and not form of any kind. |
| Tx:16.54 | special relationship tempts you to seek for love in ritual, remember | love is content and not form of any kind. The special relationship is |
| Tx:16.54 | in His killer as the sign that form has triumphed over content and | love has lost its meaning. Would you want this to be possible, even |
| Tx:16.59 | has special value, it has no meaning, and it perceives all | love as special. Yet this cannot be natural, for it is unlike the |
| Tx:16.59 | that are unlike this one must be unnatural. For God created | love as He would have it be and gave it as it is. Love has no meaning |
| Tx:16.59 | For God created love as He would have it be and gave it as it is. | Love has no meaning except as its Creator defined it by His Will. It |

| Tx:16.60 | placing yourself in bondage is to separate yourself from it. For the | love of God, no longer seek for union in separation nor for freedom |
| Tx:16.60 | As you release, so will you be released. Forget this not, or | love will be unable to find you and comfort you. There is a way in |
| Tx:16.65 | than despair in this: You could no longer find even the illusion of | love in any special relationship here. For you are no longer wholly |
| Tx:16.66 | your minds, and because you invited it, it will abide with you. Your | love for it will not allow you to betray yourself, and you could not |
| Tx:16.68 | to take its rightful place within it. Wait no longer, for the | love of God and you. And may the holy instant speed you on the way, |
| Tx:16.74 | the savagery break briefly through into awareness, the illusion of | love is not profoundly shaken. Yet the one thing which the ego never |

| Tx:17.36 | must now be undertaken to keep truth whole. The power of Heaven, the | love of God, the tears of Christ, and the joy of His eternal Spirit |
| Tx:17.36 | attack Them, being part of Them, and They must save you, for They | love Themselves. |
| Tx:18.3 | The one emotion in which substitution is impossible is | love. Fear involves substitution by definition, for it is love's |

| Tx:18.11 | for in it lies the Sonship, whole and beautiful, safe in your | love. Heaven has entered quietly, for all illusions have been gently |
| Tx:18.11 | for all illusions have been gently brought unto the truth in you and | love has shined upon you, blessing your relationship with truth. God |
| Tx:18.11 | universe within you stands with you, together. And Heaven looks with | love on what is joined in it, along with its Creator. |
| Tx:18.26 | give you confidence in yourselves, so long despised. You go toward | love, still hating it and terribly afraid of its judgment upon you. |
| Tx:18.26 | judgment upon you. And you do not realize that you are not afraid of | love, but only of what you have made of it. You are advancing to |
| Tx:18.30 | You have gone past fear, for no two minds can join in the desire for | love without love's joining them. |
| Tx:18.38 | And it is only fear that you will add if you prepare yourself for | love. The preparation for the holy instant belongs to Him Who gives |
| Tx:18.45 | It is no dream to | love your brother as yourself. Nor is your holy relationship a dream. |
| Tx:18.45 | which He can spread joy to thousands on thousands who believe that | love is fear, not happiness. Let Him fulfill the function that He |

| Tx:18.53 | reinterpreted as means for salvation and used for purposes of | love? Would you not welcome and support the shift from fantasies of |
| Tx:18.57 | to establish different orders of reality, only some of which were | love. Yet love must be forever like itself, changeless forever and |

| Tx:18.60 | Yet in every case, you joined it without reservation because you | love it and would be with it. And so you rush to meet it, letting |
| Tx:18.62 | you have been willing to let go the limits you have placed upon | love and joined it where it is and where it led you in answer to its |
| Tx:18.71 | It is only the awareness of the body that makes | love seem limited. For the body is a limit on love. The belief in |
| Tx:18.71 | of the body that makes love seem limited. For the body is a limit on | love. The belief in limited love was its origin, and it was made to |
| Tx:18.71 | seem limited. For the body is a limit on love. The belief in limited | love was its origin, and it was made to limit the unlimited. Think |
| Tx:18.72 | God cannot come into a body, nor can you join Him there. Limits on | love will always seem to shut Him out and to keep you apart from Him. |
| Tx:18.77 | is not your kingdom. Arched high above it and surrounding it with | love is the glorious whole, which offers all its happiness and deep |
| Tx:18.78 | Love knows no bodies and reaches to everything created like itself. | |
| Tx:18.78 | have so little! Should it not, then, be there that you would call on | love to enter? Look at the desert, dry and unproductive, scorched and |
| Tx:18.78 | makes up your little kingdom. And realize the life and joy which | love would bring to it from where it comes and where it would return |
| Tx:18.79 | way and wander in the dust. Give them a place of refuge, prepared by | love for them where once a desert was. And everyone you welcome will |
| Tx:18.79 | them where once a desert was. And everyone you welcome will bring | love with him from Heaven for you. They enter one by one into this |
| Tx:18.79 | holy place, but they will not depart as they had come, alone. The | love they brought with them will stay with them, as it will stay with |
| Tx:18.80 | the desert, leaving no lonely little kingdoms locked away from | love and leaving you inside. And you will recognize yourself and see |
| Tx:18.80 | garden gently transformed into the Kingdom of Heaven with all the | love of its Creator shining upon it. The holy instant is your |
| Tx:18.80 | its Creator shining upon it. The holy instant is your invitation to | love, to enter into your bleak and joyless kingdom, and to transform |
| Tx:18.81 | interfere with its glad coming. In the holy instant, you ask of | love only what it offers everyone, neither less nor more. Asking for |
| Tx:18.81 | which you tried to hide from Heaven straight into Heaven. No part of | love calls on the whole in vain. No Son of God remains outside His |
| Tx:18.82 | Be sure of this— | love has entered your special relationship and entered fully at your |
| Tx:18.82 | and entered fully at your weak request. You do not recognize that | love has come because you have not yet let go of all the barriers you |
| Tx:18.82 | you hold against each other. And you will not be able to give | love welcome separately. You could no more know God alone than He |
| Tx:18.82 | without your brother. But together you could no more be unaware of | love than love could know you not or fail to recognize itself in you. |
| Tx:18.82 | your brother. But together you could no more be unaware of love than | love could know you not or fail to recognize itself in you. |
| Tx:18.83 | with happy laughter, and it will fall away. And walk into the garden | love has prepared for both of you. |
| Tx:18.93 | heavy garments of guilt laid by and gently replaced by purity and | love. |
| Tx:18.94 | not create. It is the source of healing, but it is the messenger of | love and not its Source. Here you are led that God Himself can take |
| Tx:18.94 | take the final step unhindered, for here does nothing interfere with | love, letting it be itself. A step beyond this holy place [of |
| Tx:18.96 | Love is not learned. Its meaning lies in itself. And learning ends | |
| Tx:18.96 | is not. That is the interference; that is what needs to be undone. | Love is not learned because there never was a time in which you knew |
| Tx:18.96 | you learned is meaningless, replaced forever by the knowledge of | love and its one meaning. |
| Tx:18.97 | The holy instant in which you were united is but the messenger of | love, sent from beyond forgiveness to remind you of all that lies |
| Tx:19.11 | Faith is the opposite of fear, as much a part of | love as fear is of attack. Faith is the acknowledgment of union. It |
| Tx:19.11 | by Him like you and therefore loved by you as yourself. It is His | love that joins you, and for His love you would keep no one separate |
| Tx:19.11 | loved by you as yourself. It is His love that joins you, and for His | love you would keep no one separate from yours. Each one appears just |
| Tx:19.14 | healing with equal ease to all of them. For what the messengers of | love are sent to do they do, returning the glad tidings that it was |
| Tx:19.26 | The ego does not think it possible that | love, not fear, is really called upon by sin and always answers. For |
| Tx:19.28 | punishment must call for nothing. Every mistake must be a call for | love. What, then, is sin? What could it be but a mistake you would |
| Tx:19.33 | upon it, and the belief in sin has been uprooted in its smile of | love. You see it still because you do not realize that its foundation |
| Tx:19.37 | awareness of complete protection. And you will carry its message of | love and safety and freedom to everyone who draws nigh unto your |
| Tx:19.44 | is a gentle winning over from the appeal of guilt to the appeal of | love. How can this fail to be accomplished, wherever it is |
| Tx:19.49 | The attraction of guilt produces fear of | love, for love would never look on guilt at all. It is the nature of |
| Tx:19.49 | The attraction of guilt produces fear of love, for | love would never look on guilt at all. It is the nature of love to |
| Tx:19.49 | love, for love would never look on guilt at all. It is the nature of | love to look upon only the truth, for there it sees itself, with |
| Tx:19.49 | itself, with which it would unite in holy union and completion. As | love must look past fear, so must fear see love not. For love |
| Tx:19.49 | union and completion. As love must look past fear, so must fear see | love not. For love contains the end of guilt as surely as fear |
| Tx:19.49 | As love must look past fear, so must fear see love not. For | love contains the end of guilt as surely as fear depends on it. [Love |
| Tx:19.49 | of guilt as surely as fear depends on it. [Love is attracted only to | love.] Overlooking guilt completely, it sees no fear. Being wholly |
| Tx:19.49 | without attack, it could not be afraid. Fear is attracted to what | love sees not, and each believes that what the other looks upon does |
| Tx:19.49 | does not exist. Fear looks on guilt with just the same devotion that | love looks on itself. And each has messengers which they send forth |
| Tx:19.50 | Love's messengers are gently sent and return with messages of | love and gentleness. The messengers of fear are harshly ordered to |
| Tx:19.50 | different things in different languages. What fear would feed upon, | love overlooks. What fear demands, love cannot even see. |
| Tx:19.50 | What fear would feed upon, love overlooks. What fear demands, | love cannot even see. |
| Tx:19.51 | holds for fear is wholly absent from love's gentle perception. What | love would look upon is meaningless to fear and quite invisible. |
| Tx:19.53 | of charity, no tiny expression of forgiveness, no little breath of | love escape their notice. And they will return with all the happy |
| Tx:19.54 | His messengers to send to each other and return to each with what | love sees. They have been given to replace the hungry dogs of fear |
| Tx:19.55 | Love, too, would set a feast before you on a table covered with a | |
| Tx:19.57 | Yet would I offer you my body, you whom I | love, knowing its littleness? Or would I teach that bodies cannot |
| Tx:19.61 | of Atonement as murder. Here is the source of the idea that | love is fear. The Holy Spirit's messengers are sent far beyond the |
| Tx:19.66 | From your holy relationship truth proclaims the truth, and | love looks on itself. Salvation flows from deep within the home you |
| Tx:19.84 | conflict. Only God's Answer is its end. The obstacle of your seeming | love for death that peace must flow across seems to be very great. |
| Tx:19.86 | God, is very near. The infancy of salvation is carefully guarded by | love, preserved from every thought that would attack it and quietly |
| Tx:19.91 | face rises beyond it, shining with joy because He is in His Father's | Love, peace will lightly brush the veil aside and run to meet Him and |
| Tx:19.91 | Christ Himself like to a leper's and the bright rays of His Father's | love which light His face with glory appear as streams of blood, |
| Tx:19.94 | in just the same way; the fear that raised it yields to the | love beneath, and so the fear is gone. And so it is with this. The |
| Tx:19.94 | from you fades in the presence of the quiet recognition that you | love Him. The exaltation of the body is given up in favor of the |
| Tx:19.94 | exaltation of the body is given up in favor of the Spirit, which you | love as you could never love the body. And the appeal of death is |
| Tx:19.94 | given up in favor of the Spirit, which you love as you could never | love the body. And the appeal of death is lost forever as love's |
| Tx:19.94 | stirs and calls to you. From beyond each of the obstacles to | love, Love Itself has called, and each has been surmounted by the |
| Tx:19.94 | stirs and calls to you. From beyond each of the obstacles to love, | Love Itself has called, and each has been surmounted by the power of |
| Tx:19.94 | seemed to be holding them in place. Yet when you heard the voice of | love beyond them, you answered and they disappeared. |
| Tx:19.98 | offer you the innocence you need and that you will accept it for my | love and His. |
| Tx:19.100 | do share in it until you look upon each other with perfect faith and | love and tenderness. Before complete forgiveness, you still stand |
| Tx:19.100 | each other. Those you do not forgive you fear. And no one reaches | love with fear beside him. |
| Tx:19.102 | beside each one. Let him be what he is and seek not to make of | love an enemy. |
| Tx:20.2 | each other the gift of lilies, not the crown of thorns; the gift of | love and not the “gift” of fear. You stand beside each other, thorns |
| Tx:20.12 | freed from all the terror that kept it hidden. There is no fear in | love. The song of Easter is the glad refrain the Son of God was never |
| Tx:20.15 | that gave it to each other shall both of you be led past fear to | love. |
| Tx:20.27 | with me and know that it is justified. There is no fear in perfect | love because it knows no sin and it must look on others as on itself. |
| Tx:20.29 | and what is yours shines from him to you. Your savior gives you only | love, but what you would receive of him is up to you. It lies in him |
| Tx:20.38 | let them beat as one. And in that single heart beat is the unity of | love proclaimed and given welcome. Peace to your holy relationship, |
| Tx:20.40 | will shine so brightly in your grateful vision that you will merely | love him and be glad. You will not think to judge him, for who would |
| Tx:20.43 | will you see it, and through His understanding recognize it and | love it as your own. |
| Tx:20.44 | Be comforted and feel the Holy Spirit watching over you in | love and perfect confidence in what He sees. He knows the Son of God |
| Tx:20.46 | of both a holy and an unholy relationship. The first is based on | love and rests on it, serene and undisturbed. The body does not |
| Tx:20.46 | upon it. Any relationship in which the body enters is based not on | love, but on idolatry. Love wishes to be known, completely |
| Tx:20.46 | in which the body enters is based not on love, but on idolatry. | Love wishes to be known, completely understood, and shared. It has no |
| Tx:20.47 | Idols accept, but never make return. They can be loved, but cannot | love. They do not understand what they are offered, and any |
| Tx:20.48 | Love has no darkened temples where mysteries are kept obscure and | |
| Tx:20.49 | holding them here in its idolatry. Here it is “safe,” for here | love cannot enter. The Holy Spirit does not build His temples where |
| Tx:20.49 | love cannot enter. The Holy Spirit does not build His temples where | love can never be. Would He Who sees the face of Christ choose as His |
| Tx:20.50 | the body the Holy Spirit's temple, and it will never be the seat of | love. It is the home of the idolater and of love's condemnation. For |
| Tx:20.50 | is the home of the idolater and of love's condemnation. For here is | love made fearful and hope abandoned. Even the idols that are |
| Tx:20.51 | Idolaters will always be afraid of | love, for nothing so severely threatens them as love's approach. Let |
| Tx:20.51 | love, for nothing so severely threatens them as love's approach. Let | love draw near them and overlook the body, as it will surely do, and |
| Tx:20.54 | forever. Its firm foundation is eternally upheld by truth, and | love shines on it with the gentle smile and tender blessing it offers |
| Tx:20.55 | Yet it is also here he makes his choice again between idolatry and | love. |
| Tx:20.57 | with their Father from themselves and keep remembrance of His | love apart from their awareness? |
| Tx:21.30 | it is placed in sin. But it is always recognized if it is placed in | love. |
| Tx:21.65 | Reason, like | love, would reassure you and seeks not to frighten you. The power to |
| Tx:21.67 | Reason speaks happily indeed of this. This gracious plan was given | love by Love. And what Love plans is like Itself in this: being |
| Tx:21.67 | speaks happily indeed of this. This gracious plan was given love by | Love. And what Love plans is like Itself in this: being united, It |
| Tx:21.67 | indeed of this. This gracious plan was given love by Love. And what | Love plans is like Itself in this: being united, It would have you |
| Tx:21.70 | identify with him. And you are for him or against him; either you | love him or attack him, protect his unity or see him shattered and |
| Tx:21.72 | spear, a child becomes a giant, and a mouse roars like a lion. And | love is turned to hate as easily. This is no army, but a madhouse. |
| Tx:21.87 | no exceptions—no change of any kind. It is unshakable as is the | love of God for His creation. Sure in its vision as its Creator is in |
| Tx:22.8 | thoughts, and of the body. This is the one emotion that opposes | love and always leads to sight of differences and loss of sameness. |
| Tx:22.14 | fear is meaningless. Into the holy home, where fear is powerless, | love enters thankfully, grateful that it is one with you who joined |
| Tx:22.40 | you even here before the veil. Think what will happen after! The | love of Christ will light your faces and shine from them into a |
| Tx:22.43 | To all who share the | love of God, the grace is given to be the givers of what they have |
| Tx:22.47 | Whom you would defend against. Yet it remains impossible to keep | love out. God rests with you in quiet, undefended and wholly |
| Tx:22.47 | no weakness enter, for here is no attack and therefore no illusions. | Love rests in certainty. Only uncertainty can be defensive. And all |
| Tx:22.48 | How insignificant before the quiet strength of those whom | love has joined! This is your “enemy”—a frightened mouse that would |
| Tx:22.52 | patience, as certain of the outcome as He is sure of His Creator's | love. He knows this mad decision was made by one as dear to His |
| Tx:22.52 | He knows this mad decision was made by one as dear to His Creator as | love is to itself. |
| Tx:22.55 | no sin. The form of error is no longer seen, and reason, joined with | love, looks quietly on all confusion, observing merely, “This was a |
| Tx:22.55 | The means of sinlessness can know no fear because they carry only | love with them. |
| Tx:22.56 | Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are now His means must | love all that He loves. And what you bring is your remembrance of |
| Tx:22.59 | it all the power that God has given Him to make each little gift of | love a source of healing for everyone. Each little gift you offer to |
| Tx:22.62 | to see it [separate from its Creator]. And thus it seems as if | love could attack and become fearful. |
| Tx:22.64 | they are the same. Joy is unlimited because each shining thought of | love extends its being and creates more of itself. There is no |
| Tx:22.65 | cannot fear alone when your relationship can also teach the power of | love is there, which makes all fear impossible? Do not attempt to |
| Tx:23.2 | as certain you will fear what you attack as it is sure that you will | love what you perceive as sinless. He walks in peace who travels |
| Tx:23.2 | as sinless. He walks in peace who travels sinlessly along the way | love shows him. For love walks with him there, protecting him from |
| Tx:23.2 | in peace who travels sinlessly along the way love shows him. For | love walks with him there, protecting him from fear. And he will see |
| Tx:23.3 | their innocence, released from sin and fear, and happily returned to | love. They share the strength of love because they looked on |
| Tx:23.3 | and fear, and happily returned to love. They share the strength of | love because they looked on innocence. And every error disappeared |
| Tx:23.7 | not the means of peace, and what the warlike would remember is not | love. War is impossible unless belief in victory is cherished. |
| Tx:23.8 | And fear will reign in madness and will seem to have replaced | love there. This is the conflict's purpose. And to those who think |
| Tx:23.14 | whenever you look on anything that God created with anything but | love. Conflict is fearful, for it is the birth of fear. Yet what is |
| Tx:23.16 | and peace and dwells with him. Illusions have no place where | love abides, protecting you from everything that is not true. You |
| Tx:23.18 | is born and grows and seeks to dominate. Peace is the state where | love abides and seeks to share itself. Conflict and peace are |
| Tx:23.30 | of chaos comes to the rescue. It holds there is a substitute for | love. This is the “magic” that will cure all of your pain; the |
| Tx:23.30 | ingredient which would give meaning to your life. The substitute for | love, born of your enmity to one another, must be salvation. It has |
| Tx:23.31 | upon both, for in His madness He must have this substitute for | love and kill you both. You who believe you walk in sanity, with feet |
| Tx:23.32 | with madness sanity, illusions true, attack a kindness, hatred | love and murder benediction, is the goal the laws of chaos serve. |
| Tx:23.32 | of God appear to be reversed. Here do the laws of sin appear to hold | love captive and let sin go free. |
| Tx:23.33 | eyes, blinded and terrible to look upon, is lifted to the throne of | love, its dying conqueror, its substitute, the savior from salvation. |
| Tx:23.35 | some forms of murder not mean death? Can an attack in any form be | love? What form of condemnation is a blessing? Who makes his savior |
| Tx:23.38 | beliefs that they imply, not for their form. And lack of faith in | love in any form attests to chaos as reality. |
| Tx:23.43 | salvation is impossible. It would maintain you can attack a little, | love a little, and know the difference. Thus it would teach a little |
| Tx:23.44 | be withheld a little. Nor is it possible to attack for this and | love for that and understand forgiveness. Would you not want to |
| Tx:23.47 | same intent. And it is this you fear and not the form. What is not | love is murder. What is not loving must be an attack. Every illusion |
| Tx:23.47 | is an assault on truth, and every one does violence to the idea of | love because it seems to be of equal truth. |
| Tx:23.48 | What can be equal to the truth yet different? Murder and | love are incompatible. Yet if they both are true, then must they be |
| Tx:23.50 | The lovely light of your relationship is like the | love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy function God gave His Son, |
| Tx:23.54 | nothing. Sorrow of any kind is inconceivable. Only the light they | love is in awareness, and only love shines upon them forever. It is |
| Tx:23.54 | is inconceivable. Only the light they love is in awareness, and only | love shines upon them forever. It is their past, their present, and |
| Tx:23.54 | Can it be anything that offers you a perfect calmness and a sense of | love so deep and quiet that no touch of doubt can ever mar your |
| Tx:23.55 | is there that offers less, yet could be wanted more? Who with the | love of God upholding him could find the choice of miracles or murder |
| Tx:24.3 | Love is extension. To withhold the smallest gift is not to know | |
| Tx:24.3 | To withhold the smallest gift is not to know love's purpose. | Love offers everything forever. Hold back but one belief, one |
| Tx:24.3 | everything forever. Hold back but one belief, one offering, and | love is gone because you asked a substitute to take its place. And |
| Tx:24.3 | for peace, come with the one alternative that you can choose for | love. Your choosing it has given it all the reality it seems to have. |
| Tx:24.4 | enemies of peace, your least decision to choose attack instead of | love, unrecognized and swift to challenge you to combat and to |
| Tx:24.8 | And he must never reach them, or your goal is jeopardized. Can | love have meaning where the goal is triumph? And what decision can be |
| Tx:24.8 | you. There is no difference. You have been given to each other that | love might be extended, not cut off from one another. What you keep |
| Tx:24.11 | For what is specialness but an attack upon the Will of God? You | love your brother not while it is this you would defend against him. |
| Tx:24.12 | Comparison must be an ego device, for | love makes none. Specialness always makes comparisons. It is |
| Tx:24.14 | in exile from himself and Him of Whom they are a part. Nor do they | love the Oneness Which created them as one with Him. They chose their |
| Tx:24.15 | you are, is all you listen to. And that vast song of honor and of | love for what you are seems silent and unheard before its |
| Tx:24.16 | are different and apart—each in his special sins and “safe” from | love, which does not see his specialness at all. Christ's vision is |
| Tx:24.17 | no sound. Is it a sacrifice to give up nothing and to receive the | love of God forever? |
| Tx:24.20 | one step more and every vestige of the fear of God will melt away in | love. Your brother's specialness and yours are enemies and bound in |
| Tx:24.22 | what he has, remembering God gave Himself to both of you in equal | love that both might share the universe with Him Who chose that love |
| Tx:24.22 | love that both might share the universe with Him Who chose that | love could never be divided and kept separate from what it is and |
| Tx:24.22 | from what it is and must forever be. You are your brother's; part of | love was not denied to him. But can it be that you have lost because |
| Tx:24.22 | What has been given him makes you complete, as it does him. God's | love gave you to him and him to you because He gave Himself. What is |
| Tx:24.23 | Specialness is the seal of treachery upon the gift of | love. Whatever serves its purpose must be given to kill. No gift that |
| Tx:24.23 | weapon and the great defender of all illusions from the “threat” of | love. |
| Tx:24.30 | for neither one wills specialness. How could they will the death of | love itself? Yet they are powerless to make attack upon illusions. |
| Tx:24.31 | Forgive the great Creator of the universe, the Source of life, of | love and holiness, the perfect Father of a perfect Son, for your |
| Tx:24.31 | chose not this for you. Ask not He enter this. The way is barred to | love and to salvation. Yet if you would release your brother from the |
| Tx:24.33 | them not. They ask of you but that your will be done. They seek your | love that you may love yourself. Love not your specialness instead of |
| Tx:24.33 | of you but that your will be done. They seek your love that you may | love yourself. Love not your specialness instead of them. The print |
| Tx:24.33 | your will be done. They seek your love that you may love yourself. | Love not your specialness instead of them. The print of nails are on |
| Tx:24.40 | create. The power of a wish upholds illusions as strongly as does | love extend itself, except that one deludes; the other heals. |
| Tx:24.43 | hated him before it hated you. The sin its eyes behold in him and | love to look upon, it saw in you and looks on still with joy. Yet is |
| Tx:24.45 | and He leads you there in gentleness and blessing all the way. His | love for God replaces all the fear you thought you saw within |
| Tx:24.45 | is like yourself. For what but Christ is there to see and hear and | love and follow home? He looked upon you first but recognized that |
| Tx:24.45 | beholds and loves. And seeks it still, that each might offer you the | love of God. |
| Tx:24.46 | Yet is He quiet, for He knows that | love is in you now and safely held in you by that same hand that |
| Tx:24.47 | would be content with specialness and seek salvation in a war with | love, consider this: the holy Lord of Heaven has Himself come down to |
| Tx:24.51 | His Mind is absent from your own. It is His Will you share His | love for you and look upon yourself as lovingly as He conceived of |
| Tx:24.58 | under the laws you see as ruling him. Think, then, how great the | love of God for you must be that He has given you a part of Him to |
| Tx:24.58 | before the Will of God, Who loves each part of Him with equal | love [and care]. The Christ in you can see your brother truly. Would |
| Tx:24.62 | made to be your strength? What is this child of earth on whom such | love is lavished? What is this parody of God's creation that takes |
| Tx:24.63 | given specialness belongs to him and thus returns to you. All of the | love and care, the strong protection, the thought by day and night, |
| Tx:24.71 | creation. For as His Son's creation gave Him joy and witness to His | love and shared His purpose, so does the body testify to the idea |
| Tx:25.3 | To those who know Him not, it carries Him in gentleness and | love to heal their minds. Such is the mission that your brother has |
| Tx:25.4 | Him to His Father, whole and pure and worthy of His everlasting | Love. |
| Tx:25.7 | Each aspect of Himself is framed in holiness and perfect purity, in | love celestial and so complete it wishes only that it may release all |
| Tx:25.20 | His masterpiece? What could He do but offer thanks to you who | love His Son as He does? Would He not make known to you His love if |
| Tx:25.20 | you who love His Son as He does? Would He not make known to you His | love if you but share His praise of what He loves? God cherishes |
| Tx:25.22 | may see as one what never has been separate nor apart from all God's | love as given equally. |
| Tx:25.23 | perception's form adapted to this world of God's more basic law that | love creates itself and nothing but itself. |
| Tx:25.28 | means to justify his anger turned to an event which justifies his | love. He will hear plainly that the calls to war he heard before are |
| Tx:25.35 | Would you not do this for the | love of God? And for yourself? For think what it would do for you. |
| Tx:25.42 | the power to save what He created from the pain of hell. But in the | love he shows himself is God made free to let His Will be done. In |
| Tx:25.42 | of God must be for you. In your forgiveness will you understand His | love for you; through your attack believe He hates you, thinking |
| Tx:25.43 | from himself. And as he loves them, so he looks upon himself with | love and gentleness. He would no more condemn himself for his |
| Tx:25.48 | sin was made his special grace. His special hate became his special | love. |
| Tx:25.50 | a request for death, a wish to make this world's foundation sure as | love, dependable as Heaven, and as strong as God Himself. The world |
| Tx:25.50 | as Heaven, and as strong as God Himself. The world is safe from | love to everyone who thinks sin possible. Nor will it change. Yet is |
| Tx:25.55 | one demand is worthy of your faith. But nothing else. What is not | love is sin, and either one perceives the other as insane and |
| Tx:25.55 | sin, and either one perceives the other as insane and meaningless. | Love is the basis for a world perceived as wholly mad to sinners who |
| Tx:25.55 | is the way to sanity. But sin is equally insane within the sight of | love, whose gentle eyes would look beyond the madness and rest |
| Tx:25.59 | What is dependable except God's | Love? And where does sanity abide except in Him? The One Who speaks |
| Tx:25.65 | insanity. Yet how could justice be defined without insanity where | love means hate and death is seen as victory and triumph over |
| Tx:25.68 | angry hand. They do believe that Heaven is hell and are afraid of | love. And deep suspicion and the chill of fear comes over them when |
| Tx:25.68 | and to their world than vengeance, which they understand and | love. |
| Tx:25.70 | they are not fair and cannot understand that they are innocent. | Love is not understandable to sinners because they think that justice |
| Tx:25.70 | to sinners because they think that justice is split off from | love and stands for something else. |
| Tx:25.71 | And thus is | love perceived as weak and vengeance strong. For love has lost when |
| Tx:25.71 | And thus is love perceived as weak and vengeance strong. For | love has lost when judgment left its side and is too weak to save |
| Tx:25.71 | side and is too weak to save from punishment. But vengeance without | love has gained in strength by being separate and apart from love. |
| Tx:25.71 | without love has gained in strength by being separate and apart from | love. And what but vengeance now can help and save, while love stands |
| Tx:25.71 | apart from love. And what but vengeance now can help and save, while | love stands feebly by with helpless hands, bereft of justice and |
| Tx:25.71 | bereft of justice and vitality and powerless to save? What can | Love ask of you who think that all of this is true? Could He, in |
| Tx:25.71 | you who think that all of this is true? Could He, in justice and in | love believe in your confusion you have much to give? You are not |
| Tx:25.72 | as His Son receives what loving justice knows to be his due. For | love and justice are not different. Because they are the same does |
| Tx:25.74 | the Holy Spirit ask if he will be that one, so justice may return to | love and there be satisfied. Each special function He allots is but |
| Tx:25.74 | function He allots is but for this—that each one learn that | love and justice are not separate. And both are strengthened by their |
| Tx:25.74 | And both are strengthened by their union with each other. Without | love is justice prejudiced and weak. And love without justice is |
| Tx:25.74 | with each other. Without love is justice prejudiced and weak. And | love without justice is impossible. For love is fair and cannot |
| Tx:25.74 | prejudiced and weak. And love without justice is impossible. For | love is fair and cannot chasten without cause. What cause can be to |
| Tx:25.74 | can be to warrant an attack upon the innocent? In justice then does | love correct mistakes, but not in vengeance. For that would be unjust |
| Tx:25.75 | You can be perfect witness to the power of | love and justice if you understand it is impossible the Son of God |
| Tx:25.77 | it cannot replace God's justice with a version of its own. For only | love is just and can perceive what justice must accord the Son of |
| Tx:25.77 | just and can perceive what justice must accord the Son of God. Let | love decide and never fear that you in your unfairness will deprive |
| Tx:26.4 | He is invisible in such a world. Nor can his song of union and of | love be heard at all. Yet is it given him to make the world recede |
| Tx:26.16 | into a universal blessing. Sacrifice is gone. And in its place the | love of God can be remembered and will shine away all memory of |
| Tx:26.17 | function opens wide the door beyond which is the memory of His | love kept perfectly intact and undefiled. And all you need to do is |
| Tx:26.17 | offer or receive less than He gave when He created you in perfect | love. |
| Tx:26.25 | gate behind which total lack of limits lies. Nothing in boundless | love could need forgiveness. And what is charity within the world |
| Tx:26.27 | of Christ and not recall His Father as He really is? Who could fear | love and stand upon the ground where sin has left a place for |
| Tx:26.27 | heart of all creation? What is Heaven but a song of gratitude and | love and praise by everything created to the Source of its creation? |
| Tx:26.28 | is cherished more than any other. Each reminds him of His Father's | love as surely as the rest. And each one teaches him that what he |
| Tx:26.28 | but a miracle could change his mind, so that he understands that | love cannot be feared? What other miracle is there but this? And what |
| Tx:26.29 | will be the joy in Heaven when you join the mighty chorus to the | love of God! |
| Tx:26.39 | an instant, to be instantly restored unto His Father's perfect | Love. And how can he be kept in chains long since removed and gone |
| Tx:26.42 | relive the single instant when the time of terror was replaced by | love. And so you die each day to live again until you cross the gap |
| Tx:26.43 | which perception of your hate has been transformed into a world of | love. |
| Tx:26.52 | proclaiming sin has taken His reality from Him, and brought His | love at last to vengeance's heels. For such an insane picture, an |
| Tx:26.64 | attack deprived of its effects, and hate is answered in the name of | love. To you to whom it has been given to save the Son of God from |
| Tx:26.80 | nothingness when They have come. What hatred claimed is given up to | love, and freedom lights up every living thing and lifts it into |
| Tx:26.82 | the spots on earth is where an ancient hatred has become a present | love. And They come quickly to the living temple, where a home for |
| Tx:26.82 | be Their resting-place as well as yours. What hatred has released to | love becomes the brightest light in Heaven's radiance. And all the |
| Tx:26.87 | denied the right to be himself, and asked to sacrifice his Father's | love and yours as not his due? |
| Tx:26.90 | all unfairness been resolved and been replaced with justice and with | love. If you perceive injustice anywhere, you need but say: |
| Tx:27.6 | every scar is healed and every tear is wiped away in laughter and in | love. And he will look on his forgiveness there and with healed eyes |
| Tx:27.7 | frail and vulnerable is your life, how easily destroyed is what you | love. Depression speaks of death and vanity of real concern with |
| Tx:27.10 | neither is it dead. It stands apart from all experience of fear or | love. For now it witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being open and |
| Tx:27.13 | Is healing frightening? To many, yes. For accusation is a bar to | love, and damaged bodies are accusers. They stand firmly in the way |
| Tx:27.13 | no grounds for peace. Who has been injured by his brother and could | love and trust him still? He has attacked and will attack again. |
| Tx:27.19 | sees no specialness at all. It does not come from pity but from | love. And love would prove all suffering is but a vain imagining, a |
| Tx:27.19 | no specialness at all. It does not come from pity but from love. And | love would prove all suffering is but a vain imagining, a foolish |
| Tx:27.31 | that you see means nothing. There is nothing to attack or to deny, | love, or hate, or to endow with power or to see as weak. The picture |
| Tx:27.33 | the learning interval it has a use which now you fear, but yet will | love. |
| Tx:27.45 | need for healing then. But it does mean, if only for an instant, you | love without attack. An instant is sufficient. Miracles wait not on |
| Tx:27.46 | has come to heal. And nothing more than just one instant of your | love without attack is necessary that all this occur. In that one |
| Tx:27.53 | you have benefited from it. What occurred within the instant which | love entered in without attack will stay with you forever. Your |
| Tx:27.53 | parts. God thanks you for your healing, for He knows it is a gift of | love unto His Son, and therefore is it given unto Him. |
| Tx:27.57 | Himself what it should feel and what its function is. Yet must He | love whatever you hold dear. And for each witness to the body's death |
| Tx:27.59 | Love, too, has symbols in a world of sin. The miracle forgives | |
| Tx:27.73 | his calmer mind to welcome, not to fear, the Voice that calls with | love to waken him. [A gentler dream, in which his suffering was |
| Tx:28.13 | unremembered and undone. The stillness speaks in gentle sounds of | love the Son of God remembers from before his own remembering came in |
| Tx:28.17 | Fatherhood is creation. | Love must be extended. Purity is not confined. It is the nature of |
| Tx:28.31 | The end of dreaming is the end of fear, and | love was never in the world of dreams. The gap is little. Yet it |
| Tx:28.36 | enter not, for time waits not upon this feast, which has no end. For | Love has set Its table in the space that seemed to keep your Guests |
| Tx:28.48 | you did not give them your support. Where fear has gone, there | love must come because there are but these alternatives. Where one |
| Tx:28.53 | will see within yourself when you have lost the fear of recognizing | love. |
| Tx:29.1 | compromise the least and littlest gap would represent in His eternal | love is quite impossible. For it would mean His love could harbor |
| Tx:29.1 | in His eternal love is quite impossible. For it would mean His | love could harbor just a hint of hate; His gentleness turn sometimes |
| Tx:29.1 | How could you trust Him, then? For He must be deceptive in His | Love. Be wary, then; let Him not come too close, and leave a gap |
| Tx:29.1 | let Him not come too close, and leave a gap between you and His | love through which you can escape if there be need for you to flee. |
| Tx:29.2 | Here is the fear of God most plainly seen. For | love is treacherous to those who fear, since fear and hate can never |
| Tx:29.2 | fear and hate can never be apart. No one who hates but is afraid of | love and therefore must he be afraid of God. Certain it is he knows |
| Tx:29.2 | therefore must he be afraid of God. Certain it is he knows not what | love means. He fears to love and loves to hate, and so he thinks that |
| Tx:29.2 | of God. Certain it is he knows not what love means. He fears to | love and loves to hate, and so he thinks that love is fearful—hate |
| Tx:29.2 | means. He fears to love and loves to hate, and so he thinks that | love is fearful—hate is love. This is the consequence the little |
| Tx:29.2 | and loves to hate, and so he thinks that love is fearful—hate is | love. This is the consequence the little gap must bring to those who |
| Tx:29.4 | intervals of separation, which protect you from the “sacrifice” of | love. The body saves you, for it gets away from total sacrifice and |
| Tx:29.7 | It is not | love that asks a sacrifice. But fear demands the sacrifice of love, |
| Tx:29.7 | is not love that asks a sacrifice. But fear demands the sacrifice of | love, for in love's presence fear cannot abide. For hate to be |
| Tx:29.7 | for in love's presence fear cannot abide. For hate to be maintained | love must be feared and only sometimes present, sometimes gone. Thus |
| Tx:29.7 | must be feared and only sometimes present, sometimes gone. Thus is | love seen as treacherous because it seems to come and go uncertainly |
| Tx:29.7 | weak is your allegiance and how frequently you have demanded that | love go away and leave you quietly alone in “peace.” |
| Tx:29.8 | are overtones of seeming fear around the happy message, “God is | love.” |
| Tx:29.9 | trinkets in the gap could serve to hold you back an instant from His | love? Would you allow the body to say “no” to Heaven's calling, were |
| Tx:29.12 | guilt but one. Where they are causeless, their effects are gone, and | love must come wherever they are not. Why are you not rejoicing? You |
| Tx:29.12 | friend and guilt your god, and you should welcome the effects of | love. |
| Tx:29.14 | must be there. For what you now can do could not be done without the | love and grace His Presence holds. |
| Tx:29.19 | It is His loss you celebrate when you behold the body as a thing you | love, or look upon it as a thing you hate. For if He be the sum of |
| Tx:29.21 | Himself when He created you? Was He made weak because He shared His | love? Was He made incomplete by your perfection? Or are you the proof |
| Tx:29.23 | By your gift of freedom is it given unto you. Make way for | love, which you did not create, but which you can extend. On earth |
| Tx:29.24 | shadows that have hidden him and shines on you in gratitude and | love. He is himself, but not himself alone. And as his Father lost |
| Tx:29.30 | loves the dreamer not the dream, each dream becomes an offering of | love. For at its center is His love for you, which lights whatever |
| Tx:29.30 | each dream becomes an offering of love. For at its center is His | love for you, which lights whatever form it takes with love. |
| Tx:29.30 | center is His love for you, which lights whatever form it takes with | love. |
| Tx:29.32 | The peace in you can but be found in him. And every thought of | love you offer him but brings you nearer to your wakening to peace |
| Tx:29.33 | This sacred Son of God is like yourself—the mirror of his Father's | love for you, the soft reminder of his Father's love by which he was |
| Tx:29.33 | of his Father's love for you, the soft reminder of his Father's | love by which he was created and which still abides in him, as it |
| Tx:29.51 | An idol cannot take the place of God. Let Him remind you of His | love for you, and do not seek to drown His Voice in chants of deep |
| Tx:29.67 | in the dream are now perceived as brothers, not in judgment but in | love. |
| Tx:30.34 | you His perfect answer. Hear it now that you may be reminded of His | love and learn your will. God would not have His Son made prisoner to |
| Tx:30.35 | Look once again upon your enemy, the one you chose to hate instead of | love. For thus was hatred born into the world, and thus the rule of |
| Tx:30.39 | form you seek. What form can be a substitute for God the Father's | love? What form can take the place of all the love in the divinity of |
| Tx:30.39 | for God the Father's love? What form can take the place of all the | love in the divinity of God the Son? What idol can make two of what |
| Tx:30.63 | be unremembered till His Son has reached beyond forgiveness to the | love of God. Yet is the love of Christ accepted first. And then will |
| Tx:30.63 | Son has reached beyond forgiveness to the love of God. Yet is the | love of Christ accepted first. And then will come the knowledge They |
| Tx:30.64 | walk with you? His blessing lies on you as surely as His Father's | love rests upon Him. His gratitude to you is past your understanding, |
| Tx:31.7 | may have overlearned your chosen task, the lesson which reflects the | love of God is stronger still. And you will learn God's Son is |
| Tx:31.9 | in you remembers God with all the certainty with which He knows His | love. But only if His Son is innocent can He be Love. For God were |
| Tx:31.9 | which He knows His love. But only if His Son is innocent can He be | Love. For God were fear indeed if he whom He created innocent could |
| Tx:31.10 | results as surely from the lesson that His Son is guilty as God's | love must be remembered when he learns his innocence. For hate must |
| Tx:31.10 | to death, that sings behind each murderous attack and pleads that | love restore the dying world! You do not understand Who calls to you |
| Tx:31.10 | when you have answered Him, and you will know in Him that God is | Love. |
| Tx:31.16 | Perhaps you call it | love. Perhaps you think that it is murder justified at last. You hate |
| Tx:31.20 | fall back if he does not advance. Take not his hand in anger but in | love, for in his progress do you count your own. And we go separately |
| Tx:31.21 | Because he is your equal in God's | love, you will be saved from all appearances and answer to the Christ |
| Tx:31.24 | for you have come with but one purpose—that you both may learn you | love each other with a brother's love. And as a brother, must his |
| Tx:31.24 | —that you both may learn you love each other with a brother's | love. And as a brother, must his Father be the same as yours, as he |
| Tx:31.31 | your chosen enemies nor keep in chains to the illusion of a changing | love the ones you think are friends. |
| Tx:31.41 | His Thoughts! But you forgot His Presence and remembered not His | Love. No pathway in the world can lead to Him, nor any worldly goal |
| Tx:31.44 | acted on. It is this face that smiles and charms and even seems to | love. It searches for companions, and it looks at times with pity on |
| Tx:31.45 | can grow angry, for the world is wicked and unable to provide the | love and shelter innocence deserves. And so this face is often wet |
| Tx:31.67 | you remains as radiant as a star, as pure as light, as innocent as | Love Itself. And you are worthy that your will be done! |
| Tx:31.71 | held. The contrast is far greater than you think, for you will | love this concept of yourself because it was not made for you alone. |
| Tx:31.74 | vision, and the inner Guide all lead you out of hell with those you | love beside you and the universe with them. |
| Tx:31.75 | within the universe! To every part of true creation has the Lord of | Love and Life entrusted all salvation from the misery of hell. And to |
| Tx:31.76 | across the face of Christ, the fear of God and of salvation, and the | love of guilt and death, they all are different names for just one |
| Tx:31.76 | fight to keep the space that holds your brother off unoccupied by | love. Yet while you hold this sword, you must perceive the body as |
| Tx:31.79 | a wish, because it has no power to create. Yet it can look with | love or look with hate, depending only on the simple choice of |
| W1:16.3 | that every thought you have brings either peace or war, either | love or fear. A neutral result is impossible because a neutral |
| W1:20.2 | you cannot distinguish between joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, | love and fear. You are now learning how to tell them apart. And great |
| W1:23.4 | Loveliness can light your images and so transform them that you will | love them even though they were made of hate. For you will not be |
| W1:29.3 | Try then today to begin to learn how to look on all things with | love, appreciation, and open-mindedness. You do not see them now. |
| W1:46.2 | Although God does not forgive, His | love is nevertheless the basis of forgiveness. Fear condemns, and |
| W1:46.2 | love is nevertheless the basis of forgiveness. Fear condemns, and | love forgives. Forgiveness thus undoes what fear has produced, |
| W1:46.5 | God is the | Love in which I forgive you, [name]. |
| W1:46.7 | God is the | Love in which I forgive myself. |
| W1:46.9 | God is the | Love with which I love myself. God is the Love in which I am blessed. |
| W1:46.9 | God is the Love with which I | love myself. God is the Love in which I am blessed. |
| W1:46.9 | God is the Love with which I love myself. God is the | Love in which I am blessed. |
| W1:46.11 | in a mind beloved of God. There is no need to attack, because | Love has forgiven me. |
| W1:46.14 | God is the | Love in which I forgive you. |
| W1:50.1 | with magical powers. All these things are your replacements for the | Love of God. All these things are cherished to ensure a body |
| W1:50.2 | put your faith in the worthless. It will not sustain you. Only the | Love of God will protect you in all circumstances. It will lift you |
| W1:50.3 | faith in illusions. They will fail you. Put all your faith in the | Love of God within you, eternal, changeless and forever unfailing. |
| W1:50.3 | This is the answer to whatever confronts you today. Through the | Love of God in you, you can resolve all seeming difficulties without |
| W1:52.3 | will be no past and therefore no “enemies.” And I will look with | love on all that I failed to see before. |
| W1:54.6 | behold the proof that what has been done through me has enabled | love to replace fear, laughter to replace weeping, and abundance to |
| W1:55.3 | on everything by everything. It is anything but a reflection of the | Love of God and the love of His Son. It is my own attack thoughts |
| W1:55.3 | It is anything but a reflection of the Love of God and the | love of His Son. It is my own attack thoughts which give rise to this |
| W1:55.4 | thoughts I could not see a world of attack. As forgiveness allows | love to return to my awareness, I will see a world of peace and |
| W1:56.3 | vision, I will look upon the world and upon myself with charity and | love. |
| W1:56.4 | opened for me that I may look past it to the world that reflects the | Love of God. |
| W1:56.5 | remains unchanged. Behind every veil I have drawn across the face of | love, its light remains undimmed. Beyond all my insane wishes is my |
| W1:59.2 | when He rests in me in absolute peace? How can I suffer when | love and joy surround me through Him? Let me not cherish illusions |
| W1:60.2 | [46] God is the | Love in which I forgive. God does not forgive, because He has never |
| W1:60.2 | which I will recognize my innocence. It is the reflection of God's | Love on earth. It will bring me near enough to Heaven that the Love |
| W1:60.2 | God's Love on earth. It will bring me near enough to Heaven that the | Love of God can reach down to me and raise me to my home. |
| W1:60.3 | feel the stirring of His strength in me. And I begin to remember the | love I chose to forget, but Which has not forgotten me. |
| W1:60.6 | [50] I am sustained by the | Love of God. As I listen to God's Voice, I am sustained by His Love. |
| W1:60.6 | the Love of God. As I listen to God's Voice, I am sustained by His | Love. As I open my eyes, His love lights up the world for me to see. |
| W1:60.6 | to God's Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I open my eyes, His | love lights up the world for me to see. As I forgive, His love |
| W1:60.6 | eyes, His love lights up the world for me to see. As I forgive, His | love reminds me that His Son is sinless. And as I look upon the world |
| W1:66.8 | to be false it is necessary to define God as something He is not. | Love cannot give evil, and what is not happiness is evil. God cannot |
| W1:66.9 | of your choice but the fear which the ego always engenders and the | love which the Holy Spirit always offers to replace it. |
| W1:67.5 | images and preconceptions about yourself to the truth in you. If | Love created you like Itself, this Self must be in you. And somewhere |
| W1:67.6 | the awareness of a blazing light in which you recognize yourself as | Love created you. Be confident that you will do much today to bring |
| W1:67.7 | even more, it would be most beneficial to remind yourself that | Love created you like Itself. Hear the truth about yourself in this. |
| W1:67.8 | with the simple truth about the Son of God. You were created by | Love like Itself. |
| W1:68.1 | You who were created by | Love like Itself can hold no grievances and know your Self. To hold a |
| W1:68.3 | Oh, yes! For he who holds grievances denies he was created by | Love, and his Creator has become fearful to him in his dream of hate. |
| W1:68.6 | minor grievances you hold against those you like and even think you | love. It will quickly become apparent that there is no one against |
| W1:68.9 | safe in a world which protects you and loves you and which you | love in return. Try to feel safety surrounding you, hovering over |
| W1:68.10 | Love holds no grievances. When I let all my grievances go, I will | |
| W1:68.12 | Love holds no grievances. Let me not betray my Self. | |
| W1:68.14 | Love holds no grievances. I would wake to my Self by laying all my | |
| W1:72.8 | you see. Some hate the body and try to hurt and humiliate it. Others | love the body and try to glorify and exalt it. But while it stands at |
| W1:75.11 | is a time for special celebration. Give thanks for mercy and the | Love of God. Rejoice in the power of forgiveness to heal your sight |
| W1:76.11 | you saw. Then listen further. He will tell you more. About the | love your Father has for you. About the endless joy He offers you. |
| W1:78.5 | him. Someone perhaps you fear and even hate; someone you think you | love who angers you; someone you call a friend, but whom you see as |
| W1:78.11 | in which you laid your images aside and looked upon the miracle of | love the Holy Spirit showed you in their place. The world and Heaven |
| W1:84.2 | [67] | Love created me like Itself. I am in the likeness of my Creator. I |
| W1:84.2 | to replace my Self. I am in the likeness of my Creator. | Love created me like Itself. |
| W1:84.5 | [68] | Love holds no grievances. Grievances are completely alien to love. |
| W1:84.5 | [68] Love holds no grievances. Grievances are completely alien to | love. Grievances attack love and keep its light obscure. If I hold |
| W1:84.5 | Grievances are completely alien to love. Grievances attack | love and keep its light obscure. If I hold grievances I am attacking |
| W1:84.5 | love and keep its light obscure. If I hold grievances I am attacking | love and therefore attacking my Self. My Self thus becomes alien to |
| W1:84.7 | no justification for denying my Self. I will not use this to attack | love. Let this not tempt me to attack myself. |
| W1:92.6 | miracle in which they will unite in purpose and forgiveness and in | love. |
| W1:92.7 | which looks in darkness, cannot see a purpose in forgiveness and in | love. It sees all others different from itself and nothing in the |
| W1:92.7 | the world that it would share. It judges and condemns but does not | love. In darkness it remains to hide itself and dreams that it is |
| W1:92.8 | the morning comes again. The light of strength is constant, sure as | love, forever glad to give itself away because it cannot give but to |
| W1:93.5 | has not changed creation nor reduced eternal sinlessness to sin and | love to hate. What power can this self you made possess when it would |
| W1:93.11 | the unity of your One Self. Try to appreciate its holiness and the | love from which it was created. Try not to interfere with the Self |
| W1:95.18 | sinless as its Creator, with His strength within you and His | love forever yours. You are One Self, and it is given you to feel |
| W1:97.2 | sanity. You are the Spirit lovingly endowed with all your Father's | love and peace and joy. You are the Spirit which completes Himself |
| W1:99.5 | loss. Yet does He know one thing must still be true—God still is | Love, and this is not His Will. |
| W1:99.8 | Salvation is my only function here. God still is | Love, and this is not His Will. |
| W1:99.14 | what you need to learn to lay all fear aside and know your Self as | Love Which has no opposite in you. |
| W1:99.17 | Salvation is my only function here. God still is | Love, and this is not His Will. |
| W1:99.20 | forgiveness on your mind and let all fear be gently laid aside that | Love may find Its rightful place in you and show you that you are the |
| W1:102.7 | You have no need to be less loving to God's Son than He Whose | Love created him as loving as Himself. Besides these hourly five |
| W1:103.1 | Happiness is an attribute of | love. It cannot be apart from it, nor can it be experienced where |
| W1:103.1 | of love. It cannot be apart from it, nor can it be experienced where | love is not. Love has no limits, being everywhere. And therefore joy |
| W1:103.1 | be apart from it, nor can it be experienced where love is not. | Love has no limits, being everywhere. And therefore joy is everywhere |
| W1:103.1 | Yet can the mind deny that this is so, believing there are gaps in | love where sin can enter, bringing pain instead of joy. |
| W1:103.2 | This strange belief would limit happiness by redefining | love as limited and introducing opposition in what has no limit and |
| W1:103.2 | in what has no limit and no opposite. Fear is associated then with | love, and its results become the heritage of minds that think what |
| W1:103.2 | reality in truth, bear witness to the fear of God, forgetting being | Love, He must be joy. |
| W1:103.4 | God, being | Love, is also happiness. To fear Him is to be afraid of joy. |
| W1:103.6 | and joy becomes what you expect to take the place of pain. God being | Love, it will be given you. Bolster this expectation frequently |
| W1:103.7 | God, being | Love, is also happiness. And it is happiness I seek today. I cannot |
| W1:105.5 | the limitless to the unlimited, eternity to timelessness, and | love unto itself. It adds to all that is complete already, not in |
| W1:106.3 | your happiness within His hand, held out to you in welcome and in | love. Hear only Him today, and do not wait to reach Him longer. Hear |
| W1:107.6 | has come, it harbors in its wings the gift of perfect constancy and | love which does not falter in the face of pain but looks beyond it, |
| W1:110.3 | turn to sickness, nor can death be substitute for life or fear for | love. All this has not occurred if you remain as God created you. You |
| W1:117.2 | [103] God, being | Love, is also happiness. Let me remember love is happiness and |
| W1:117.2 | [103] God, being Love, is also happiness. Let me remember | love is happiness and nothing else brings joy. And so I choose to |
| W1:117.2 | else brings joy. And so I choose to entertain no substitutes for | love. |
| W1:117.3 | [104] I seek but what belongs to me in truth. | Love is my heritage and with it joy. These are the gifts my Father |
| W1:117.5 | God, being | Love, is also happiness. |
| W1:121.2 | The unforgiving mind is full of fear and offers | love no room to be itself, no place where it can spread its wings in |
| W1:123.3 | Give thanks that He has not abandoned you and that His | Love forever will remain shining on you, forever without change. Give |
| W1:124.3 | or stayed with us a while. And God, Who loves us with the equal | love in which we were created, smiles on us and offers us the |
| W1:124.3 | us and offers us the happiness we gave. Today we will not doubt His | Love for us nor question His protection and His care. |
| W1:124.11 | as your gift to God, in certainty that His return will be a sense of | love you cannot understand, a joy too deep for you to comprehend, a |
| W1:125.2 | own will, forever free as God's. He is not led by force, but only | love. He is not judged, but only sanctified. |
| W1:125.7 | than your heart to you. His Voice is closer than your hand. His | Love is everything you are and that He is—the same as you, and you |
| W1:126.13 | spend a quiet moment, opening your mind to His correction and His | Love. And what you hear of Him you will believe, for what He gives |
| W1:127.1 | Perhaps you think that different kinds of | love are possible. Perhaps you think there is a kind of love for |
| W1:127.1 | kinds of love are possible. Perhaps you think there is a kind of | love for this, a kind for that; a way of loving one, another way of |
| W1:127.1 | for that; a way of loving one, another way of loving still another. | Love is one. It has no separate parts and no degrees; no kinds nor |
| W1:127.2 | Love's meaning is obscure to anyone who thinks that | love can change. He does not see that changing love must be |
| W1:127.2 | who thinks that love can change. He does not see that changing | love must be impossible. And thus he thinks that he can love at times |
| W1:127.2 | changing love must be impossible. And thus he thinks that he can | love at times and hate at other times. He also thinks that love can |
| W1:127.2 | he can love at times and hate at other times. He also thinks that | love can be bestowed on one and yet remain itself although it is |
| W1:127.2 | although it is withheld from others. To believe these things of | love is not to understand it. If it could make such distinctions it |
| W1:127.3 | Love cannot judge. As it is one itself, it looks on all as one. Its | |
| W1:127.3 | elude the mind that thinks of it as partial or in part. There is no | love but God's, and all of love is His. There is no other principle |
| W1:127.3 | of it as partial or in part. There is no love but God's, and all of | love is His. There is no other principle which rules where love is |
| W1:127.3 | all of love is His. There is no other principle which rules where | love is not. Love is a law without an opposite. Its wholeness is the |
| W1:127.3 | is His. There is no other principle which rules where love is not. | Love is a law without an opposite. Its wholeness is the power holding |
| W1:127.4 | fail to emphasize there is no difference in what you are and what | love is. Love's meaning is your own, and shared by God Himself. For |
| W1:127.4 | shared by God Himself. For what you are is what He is. There is no | love but His, and what He is, is everything there is. There is no |
| W1:127.5 | not one principle the world upholds but violates the truth of what | love is, and what you are as well. Seek not within the world to find |
| W1:127.5 | what you are as well. Seek not within the world to find your Self. | Love is not found in darkness and in death. Yet it is perfectly |
| W1:127.6 | its established goal. If you achieve the faintest glimmering of what | love means today, you have advanced in distance without measure and |
| W1:127.8 | give up a false belief, a dark illusion of your own reality and what | love means. He will shine through your idle thoughts today and help |
| W1:127.8 | your idle thoughts today and help you understand the truth of | love. In loving gentleness, He will abide with you as you allow His |
| W1:127.8 | to your clean and open mind. And He will bless the lesson with His | Love. |
| W1:127.10 | all made free along with us. Now are they all our brothers in God's | Love. |
| W1:127.11 | throughout the day because we cannot leave a part of us outside our | love if we would know our Self. At least three times an hour think of |
| W1:127.12 | I bless you, brother, with the | Love of God which I would share with you. For I would learn the |
| W1:127.12 | share with you. For I would learn the joyous lesson that there is no | love but God's and yours and mine and everyone's. |
| W1:128.6 | in its Creator, there to be restored to sanity, to freedom, and to | love. |
| W1:129.2 | away all things that you have cherished for a while. No lasting | love is found, for none is here. This is the world of time, where all |
| W1:129.3 | it a loss to find a world instead where losing is impossible, where | love endures forever, hate cannot exist, and vengeance has no |
| W1:130.2 | Yet who can really hate and | love at once? Who can desire what he does not want to have reality? |
| W1:130.2 | for this its weapon is—that which you fear to see you cannot see. | Love and perception thus go hand in hand, but fear obscures in |
| W1:130.4 | up the world. They are not there. Love's enemy has made them up. Yet | love can have no enemy, and so they have no cause, no being, and no |
| W1:131.1 | cannot be achieved. You look for permanence in the impermanent, for | love where there is none, for safety in the midst of danger, |
| W1:131.6 | abandon his Creator nor affect His perfect, timeless, and unchanging | Love. You will find Heaven. Everything you seek but this will fall |
| W1:132.12 | apart from Him nor make what does not share His timelessness and | love. Are these inherent in the world you see? Does it create like |
| W1:134.2 | All truth belongs to Him, reflects His laws and radiates His | Love. Does this need pardon? How can you forgive the sinless and |
| W1:134.11 | Across this bridge, as powerful as | Love Which laid Its blessing on it, are all dreams of evil and of |
| W1:137.6 | The body seems to be more solid and more stable than the mind. And | love becomes a dream, while fear remains the one reality that can be |
| W1:139.9 | the truth about yourself and go your way rejoicing in the endless | Love of God. It is but this that we are asked to do. It is but this |
| W1:139.12 | mind, how faithful they have really been to us, and how our Father's | Love contains us all. |
| W1:R4.9 | be shared with Him. And so each one will bring the message of His | Love to you, returning messages of yours to Him. So will communion |
| W1:144.1 | [127] There is no | love but God's. |
| W1:151.11 | frame of reference, wholly unified and sure. And you will see the | love beyond the hate, the constancy in change, the pure in sin, and |
| W1:151.14 | and the happiness God wills His Son as proof of His eternal | Love. And as each thought is thus transformed, it takes on healing |
| W1:152.2 | peace, or grief of joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a mind where | love and perfect holiness abide? Truth must be all-inclusive if it be |
| W1:152.10 | Him Who has created us immaculate, like to Himself in power and in | love. The power of decision is our own. And we accept of Him that |
| W1:152.11 | of God's Son, his gentleness, his perfect sinlessness, his Father's | Love, his right to Heaven and release from hell are joyously accepted |
| W1:153.17 | as ministers of God in hourly remembrance of our mission and His | Love. And we will quietly sit by and wait on Him and listen to His |
| W1:153.20 | am here.” Your practicing will now begin to take the earnestness of | love to help you keep your mind from wandering from its intent. |
| W1:153.21 | your final goal. The ministers of God can never fail because the | love and strength and peace that shine from them to all their |
| W1:155.12 | Could any way be holier or more deserving of your effort, of your | love, and of your full intent? What way could give you more than |
| W1:155.14 | of Him a while each day that He may speak to you and tell you of His | Love, reminding you how great His trust, how limitless His Love. In |
| W1:155.14 | of His Love, reminding you how great His trust, how limitless His | Love. In your name and His own, which are the same, we practice |
| W1:157.9 | serenely unaware of everything except His shining face and perfect | Love. The vision of His face will stay with you, but there will be an |
| W1:158.1 | sinless forever, wholly unafraid because you were created out of | Love. Nor have you left your Source, remaining as you were created. |
| W1:158.6 | is a quiet place within the world made holy by forgiveness and by | love. Here are all contradictions reconciled, for here the journey |
| W1:158.11 | shares its unseen holiness; its likeness shines with its immortal | love. We practice seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the |
| W1:159.3 | a miracle. It comes from far beyond itself, for it reflects eternal | love and the rebirth of love which never died but has been kept |
| W1:159.3 | far beyond itself, for it reflects eternal love and the rebirth of | love which never died but has been kept obscure. Christ's vision |
| W1:159.8 | and warmth and kindly care Christ's charity provides. They need the | love with which He looks on them. And they become His messengers who |
| W1:160.1 | Fear is a stranger to the ways of | love. Identify with fear, and you will be a stranger to yourself. And |
| W1:160.4 | His Son? Is fear His own, created in His likeness? Is it fear that | love completes and is completed by? There is no home can shelter love |
| W1:160.4 | love completes and is completed by? There is no home can shelter | love and fear. They cannot coexist. If you are real, then fear must |
| W1:161.1 | against our anger, that our fears may disappear and offer room to | love. Here is salvation in the simple words in which we practice |
| W1:161.5 | calls for no response, for symbols can stand for the meaningless. | Love needs no symbols, being true. But fear attaches to specifics, |
| W1:161.9 | do the body's eyes behold in one whom Heaven cherishes, the angels | love, and God created perfect. This is his reality. And in Christ's |
| W1:161.10 | to you. Ask him not to symbolize your fear. Would you request that | love destroy itself? Or would you have it be revealed to you and set |
| W1:162.2 | Here is the Word by which the Son became His Father's happiness, His | Love, and His completion. Here creation is proclaimed and honored as |
| W1:162.4 | it is now the treasury in which God places all His gifts and all His | Love to be distributed to all the world, increased in giving, kept |
| W1:163.4 | all creation, stronger than God's Will for life, the endlessness of | love and Heaven's perfect, changeless constancy. Here is the Will of |
| W1:163.9 | messengers, and we would look upon the glorious reflection of Your | love which shines in everything. We live and breathe in You alone. We |
| W1:164.6 | and recognized for what they are. And what is worthy of your | love receives your love, while nothing to be feared remains. |
| W1:164.6 | for what they are. And what is worthy of your love receives your | love, while nothing to be feared remains. |
| W1:165.2 | place and smooth your way, lighting your mind with happiness and | love. Eternity and everlasting life shine in your mind because the |
| W1:165.6 | in him, and deprivation cannot cut him off from God's sustaining | love and from his home. |
| W1:165.7 | Word directs we do. His sureness lies beyond our every doubt. His | love remains beyond our every fear. The thought of Him is still |
| W1:168.1 | His Son. There is no certainty but this, yet this suffices. He will | love His Son forever. When his mind remains asleep, He loves him |
| W1:168.1 | still. And when his mind awakes, He loves him with a never-changing | Love. |
| W1:168.2 | If you but knew the meaning of His | Love, hope and despair would be impossible, for hope would be forever |
| W1:168.2 | His answer is to all despair, for in it lies remembrance of His | Love. Would He not gladly give the means by which His Will is |
| W1:168.4 | later. For in grace you see a light that covers all the world in | love and watch fear disappear from every face as hearts rise up and |
| W1:168.5 | us the means to lay them down and rise to Him in gratitude and | love. |
| W1:168.6 | but the words He gave to us through His Own Voice, His Word, His | Love: |
| W1:168.7 | I come to You. And You will come to me who asks. I am the Son You | love. |
| W1:169.1 | Grace is an aspect of the | Love of God which is most like the state prevailing in the unity of |
| W1:169.2 | Grace is acceptance of the | Love of God within a world of seeming hate and fear. By grace alone |
| W1:170.4 | your mind into two camps which seem wholly irreconcilable. For | love now has an “enemy,” an opposite; and fear, the alien, now needs |
| W1:170.6 | Next are the attributes of | love bestowed upon its “enemy.” For fear becomes your safety and |
| W1:170.6 | about your strength and hope of rest in dreamless quiet. And as | love is shorn of what belongs to it and it alone, love is endowed |
| W1:170.6 | quiet. And as love is shorn of what belongs to it and it alone, | love is endowed with attributes of fear. For love would ask you lay |
| W1:170.6 | to it and it alone, love is endowed with attributes of fear. For | love would ask you lay down all defense as merely foolish. And your |
| W1:170.7 | With | love as enemy must cruelty become a god, and gods demand that those |
| W1:170.9 | before this idol, seeing him exactly as he is. Will you restore to | love what you have sought to wrest from it and lay before this |
| W1:170.10 | of fear as god. For fear is loved by those who worship it, and | love appears to be invested now with cruelty. |
| W1:170.11 | Where does the totally insane belief in gods of vengeance come from? | Love has not confused its attributes with those of fear. Yet must the |
| W1:170.11 | their own confusion in fear's “enemy,” its cruelty as now a part of | love. And what becomes more fearful than the heart of Love Itself? |
| W1:170.11 | now a part of love. And what becomes more fearful than the heart of | Love Itself? The blood appears to be upon His lips; the fire comes |
| W1:170.13 | The Call of God is heard and answered. Now has fear made way for | love, as God Himself replaces cruelty. |
| W1:R5.5 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:R5.6 | This Self alone knows | love. This Self alone is perfectly consistent in Its thoughts, knows |
| W1:R5.6 | Its Creator, understands Itself, is perfect in Its knowledge and Its | love, and never changes from Its constant state of union with Its |
| W1:R5.13 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:171.1 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:171.2 | [151] All things are echoes of the Voice of God. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:171.3 | [152] The power of decision is my own. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:172.1 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:172.2 | [153] In my defenselessness my safety lies. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:172.3 | [154] I am among the ministers of God. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:173.1 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:173.2 | [155] I will step back and let Him lead the way. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:173.3 | [156] I walk with God in perfect holiness. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:174.1 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:174.2 | [157] Into His Presence would I enter now. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:174.3 | [158] Today I learn to give as I receive. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:175.1 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:175.2 | [159] I give the miracles I have received. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:175.3 | [160] I am at home. Fear is the stranger here. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:176.1 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:176.2 | [161] Give me your blessing, holy Son of God. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:176.3 | [162] I am as God created me. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:177.1 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:177.2 | [163] There is no death. The Son of God is free. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:177.3 | [164] Now are we one with Him Who is our Source. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:178.1 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:178.2 | [165] Let not my mind deny the thought of God. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:178.3 | [166] I am entrusted with the gifts of God. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:179.1 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:179.2 | [167] There is one life, and that I share with God. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:179.3 | [168] Your grace is given me. I claim it now. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:180.1 | God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:180.2 | [169] By grace I live. By grace I am released. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:180.3 | [170] There is no cruelty in God and none in me. God is but | Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:181.9 | of true perception, are the eyes of Christ inevitably ours. And the | love He feels for us becomes our own as well. This will become the |
| W1:181.10 | proclaimed our sins becomes the proof that we are sinless. And our | love for everyone we look upon attests to our remembrance of the holy |
| W1:182.5 | the peace that is His home, resting in silence and in peace and | love. |
| W1:182.11 | a little child who must beseech his father for protection and for | love. He rules the universe, and yet He asks unceasingly that you |
| W1:185.14 | the call of every mind, the hope that lies beyond despair, the | love attack would hide, the brotherhood that hate has sought to |
| W1:186.13 | answer every need His Son perceives, although He sees them not. For | Love must give, and what is given in His Name takes on the form most |
| W1:186.14 | come from Formlessness Itself. Forgiveness is an earthly form of | love which as it is in Heaven has no form. Yet what is needed here is |
| W1:186.14 | In this form, you can fulfill your function even here, although what | love will mean to you when formlessness has been restored to you is |
| W1:187.10 | we see the purity of Heaven shine in our reflection of our Father's | Love. |
| W1:189.1 | light is a reflection of the thought we practice now. To feel the | Love of God within you is to see the world anew, shining in |
| W1:189.1 | in innocence, alive with hope, and blessed with perfect charity and | love. |
| W1:189.3 | This is the world the | Love of God reveals. It is so different from the world you see |
| W1:189.4 | of hatred equally unseen and inconceivable to those who feel God's | Love in them. Their world reflects the quietness and peace that |
| W1:189.5 | held cruelly in death's sharp-pointed, bony fingers. If you feel the | Love of God within you, you look out upon a world of mercy and of |
| W1:189.5 | Love of God within you, you look out upon a world of mercy and of | love. |
| W1:189.6 | to what is true in us and feel Its all-embracing tenderness, Its | Love Which knows us perfect as Itself, Its sight which is the gift |
| W1:189.6 | Which knows us perfect as Itself, Its sight which is the gift Its | Love bestows on us. We learn the way today. It is as sure as Love |
| W1:189.6 | Its Love bestows on us. We learn the way today. It is as sure as | Love Itself, to Which it carries us. For its simplicity avoids the |
| W1:189.9 | with this choice we rest. And in our quiet hearts and open minds His | love will blaze its pathway of itself. What has not been denied is |
| W1:189.9 | Son to show Him how to find His way. Through every opened door His | love shines outward from its home within and lightens up the world in |
| W1:190.2 | wholly unassailable. It is a nightmare of abandonment by an eternal | Love which could not leave the Son whom It created out of love. |
| W1:190.2 | an eternal Love which could not leave the Son whom It created out of | love. |
| W1:190.3 | pain. If pain is real, there is no God. For vengeance is not part of | love. And fear, denying love and using pain to prove that God is |
| W1:190.3 | is no God. For vengeance is not part of love. And fear, denying | love and using pain to prove that God is dead, has shown that death |
| W1:190.8 | denied the Son He loves. In pain does fear appear to triumph over | love and time replace eternity and Heaven. And the world becomes a |
| W1:192.1 | and that your Self shall be His sacred Son, forever pure as He, of | love created and in love preserved, extending love, creating in its |
| W1:192.1 | shall be His sacred Son, forever pure as He, of love created and in | love preserved, extending love, creating in its name, forever one |
| W1:192.1 | forever pure as He, of love created and in love preserved, extending | love, creating in its name, forever one with God and with your Self. |
| W1:192.10 | that you accept the way to freedom now. Deny him not. His Father's | Love for him belongs to you. Your function here on earth is only to |
| W1:193.3 | for He knows no sin is possible. And yet He let His holy law of | Love be given form in which it could be offered to the world. And He |
| W1:193.3 | He encompassed what He could not see nor understand by giving of His | Love and making Answer to a question which, though meaningless, His |
| W1:193.4 | in hate to one in which forgiveness enters, and returns the hate to | love, so that the fear is gone. And now guilt cannot enter, for its |
| W1:193.4 | has been changed to guiltlessness; the hatred has been rooted out by | love. |
| W1:193.12 | does not remember who he is. And God would have him not forget His | Love and all the gifts His Love brings with it. Would you now |
| W1:193.12 | is. And God would have him not forget His Love and all the gifts His | Love brings with it. Would you now renounce your own salvation? Would |
| W1:193.20 | And then you hold the key that opens Heaven's gate and brings the | Love of God the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to |
| W1:194.7 | of loss to him? What can he fear? And what can he regard except with | love? For he who has escaped all fear of future pain has found his |
| W1:194.8 | again, replacing all your thoughts of sin and evil with the truth of | love. Think you the world could fail to gain thereby and every living |
| W1:195.4 | slave than you, nor could you sanely be enraged if he seems freer. | Love makes no comparisons. And gratitude can only be sincere if it is |
| W1:195.4 | no comparisons. And gratitude can only be sincere if it is joined to | love. We offer thanks to God our Father that in us all things will |
| W1:195.4 | while others still are bound, for who can bargain in the name of | love? |
| W1:195.8 | Walk then in gratitude, the way of | love. For hatred is forgotten when we lay comparisons aside. What |
| W1:195.8 | gratitude, for you will see that everything has earned the right to | love by being loving, even as your Self. |
| W1:195.10 | more than you could ever dream of. Gratitude goes hand in hand with | love, and where one is, the other must be found. For gratitude is but |
| W1:195.10 | is, the other must be found. For gratitude is but an aspect of the | love which is the Source of all creation. God gives thanks to you, |
| W1:195.10 | Son, for being what you are—His own completion and the source of | love, along with Him. Your gratitude to Him is one with His to you. |
| W1:195.10 | along with Him. Your gratitude to Him is one with His to you. For | love can walk no road except the way of gratitude, and thus we go who |
| W1:196.11 | And you can call on Him to save you from illusions in His | Love, calling Him Father and yourself His Son. Pray that the instant |
| W1:196.11 | instant may be soon—today. Step back from fear and make advance to | love. |
| W1:197.5 | sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, forever giving out, extending | love, and adding to your never-ending joy, while you forgive but to |
| W1:197.7 | to all They have created has no end, for gratitude remains a part of | love. |
| W1:198.6 | this earth. His words are born in God, and come to you with Heaven's | love upon them. Those who hear His words have heard the song of |
| W1:199.2 | cannot enter such a mind because it has been given to the Source of | Love. And fear can never enter in a mind that has attached itself to |
| W1:199.2 | Love. And fear can never enter in a mind that has attached itself to | Love. It rests in God, and who can be afraid who lives in Innocence |
| W1:199.7 | many who perceive themselves as bound and helpless and afraid. Let | love replace their fears through you. Accept salvation now, and give |
| W1:199.8 | of joy your practice brings even to it. And God Himself extends His | Love and happiness each time you say: |
| W1:200.3 | Yet you can ask as easily for | love, for happiness, and for eternal life in peace that has no |
| W1:200.6 | there appears to be a choice to make between success and failure, | love and fear? |
| W1:200.10 | its soft embrace surround your heart and mind with comfort and with | love. |
| W1:207.1 | turn to Him, and every sorrow melts away as I accept His boundless | Love for me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W1:209.1 | [189] I feel the | Love of God within me now. The Love of God is what created me. The |
| W1:209.1 | [189] I feel the Love of God within me now. The | Love of God is what created me. The Love of God is everything I am. |
| W1:209.1 | Love of God within me now. The Love of God is what created me. The | Love of God is everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His |
| W1:209.1 | of God is what created me. The Love of God is everything I am. The | Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love of God within me sets |
| W1:209.1 | is everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The | Love of God within me sets me free. I am not a body. I am free. For I |
| W1:215.1 | [195] | Love is the way I walk in gratitude. The Holy Spirit is my only |
| W1:215.1 | in gratitude. The Holy Spirit is my only Guide. He walks with me in | love. And I give thanks to Him for showing me the way to go. I am not |
| W1:220.1 | But let me follow Him Who leads me home, and peace is certain as the | Love of God. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W2:I.7 | these last few steps to You and rest in confidence upon Your | Love, Which will not fail the Son who calls to You. |
| W2:I.8 | has held us up. His thoughts have lit the darkness of our minds. His | Love has called to us unceasingly since time began. |
| W2:I.10 | all temptations disappear. Instead of words, we need but feel His | Love. Instead of prayer, we need but call His Name. Instead of |
| W2:221.1 | me today. I come to hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and | love, sure You will hear my call and answer me. |
| W2:222.1 | from all pain. He covers me with kindness and with care and holds in | love the Son He shines upon, who also shines on Him. How still is he |
| W2:225.1 | Father, I must return Your | love for me. For giving and receiving are the same, and You have |
| W2:225.1 | For giving and receiving are the same, and You have given all Your | love to me. I must return it, for I want it mine in full awareness, |
| W2:229.1 | “Love, Which created me, is what I am.” Now need I seek no more. | Love has prevailed. So still it waited for my coming home that I will |
| W2:231.1 | What can I seek for, Father, but Your | Love? Perhaps I think I seek for something else—a something I have |
| W2:231.1 | else—a something I have called by many names. Yet is Your | Love the only thing I seek or ever sought. For there is nothing else |
| W2:232.1 | As evening comes, let all my thoughts be still of You and of Your | Love, and let me sleep sure of my safety, certain of Your care, and |
| W2:233.1 | and I the follower who questions not the wisdom of the Infinite nor | Love Whose tenderness I cannot comprehend but which is yet Your |
| W2:234.2 | thank You, Father, that we cannot lose the memory of You and of Your | Love. We recognize our safety and give thanks for all the gifts You |
| W2:235.1 | that only happiness has come to me. And I need but remember that His | Love surrounds His Son and keeps his sinlessness forever perfect to |
| W2:235.2 | Father, Your holiness is mine. Your | Love created me and made my sinlessness forever part of You. I have |
| W2:238.2 | how much our Father loves us. And how dear His Son, created by His | Love, remains to Him Whose Love is made complete in him. |
| W2:238.2 | us. And how dear His Son, created by His Love, remains to Him Whose | Love is made complete in him. |
| W2:240.1 | the Son of God. There is no fear in us, for we are each a part of | Love Itself. |
| W2:240.2 | him in Your Name, that we may understand his holiness and feel the | love for him that is Your own as well. |
| W2:244.1 | but call upon Your Name, and he will recollect his safety and Your | Love, for they are one. How can he fear or doubt or fail to know he |
| W2:245.2 | hear the Voice of God, Who speaks to us as we relate His Word, Whose | Love we recognize because we share the Word that He has given unto us. |
| W2:246.1 | my awareness can contain my Father, or my mind conceive of all the | love my Father has for me and all the love which I return to Him. |
| W2:246.1 | or my mind conceive of all the love my Father has for me and all the | love which I return to Him. |
| W2:246.2 | You will is what I will as well and only that. And so I choose to | love Your Son. Amen. |
| W2:248.2 | Father, my ancient | love for You returns and lets me love Your Son again as well. Father, |
| W2:248.2 | Father, my ancient love for You returns and lets me | love Your Son again as well. Father, I am as You created me. Now is |
| W2:248.2 | Your Son again as well. Father, I am as You created me. Now is Your | Love remembered and my own. Now do I understand that they are one. |
| W2:WIS.3 | corruption to complete Himself, His Will forever overcome by death, | love slain by hate, and peace to be no more. |
| W2:WIS.4 | the while his Father shines on him and loves him with an everlasting | Love which his pretenses cannot change at all. |
| W2:252.1 | more brilliant than is any light that I have ever looked upon. Its | love is limitless, with an intensity that holds all things within it |
| W2:252.1 | from burning impulses which move the world but from the boundless | Love of God Himself. How far beyond this world my Self must be, and |
| W2:254.2 | them. They are silent now. And in the stillness, hallowed by His | Love, God speaks to us and tells us of our will, as we have chosen to |
| W2:258.1 | of the world are sought instead? God is our only goal, our only | Love. We have no aim but to remember Him. |
| W2:259.1 | this could be the source of fear, obscuring God's creation, giving | love the attributes of fear and of attack? |
| W2:259.2 | Father, I would not be insane today. I would not be afraid of | love nor seek for refuge in its opposite. For love can have no |
| W2:259.2 | would not be afraid of love nor seek for refuge in its opposite. For | love can have no opposite. You are the Source of everything that is. |
| W2:WIB.1 | and crumbles. For within this fence he thinks that he is safe from | love. Identifying with its safety, he regards himself as what his |
| W2:WIB.1 | is. How else could he be certain he remains within the body, keeping | love outside? |
| W2:WIB.3 | quite suddenly revert to fear, where every dream is born. For only | love creates in truth, and truth can never fear. Made to be fearful, |
| W2:WIB.5 | that it is one with you. Your safety lies in truth and not in lies. | Love is your safety. Fear does not exist. Identify with love, and you |
| W2:WIB.5 | not in lies. Love is your safety. Fear does not exist. Identify with | love, and you are safe. Identify with love, and you are home. |
| W2:WIB.5 | does not exist. Identify with love, and you are safe. Identify with | love, and you are home. Identify with love, and find your Self. |
| W2:WIB.5 | you are safe. Identify with love, and you are home. Identify with | love, and find your Self. |
| W2:262.1 | and we are part of You Who are our Source, eternally united in Your | Love, eternally the holy Son of God. |
| W2:263.1 | Your Mind created all that is; Your Spirit entered into it; Your | Love gave life to it. And would I look upon what You created as if it |
| W2:264.1 | belief. For what surrounds Your Son and keeps him safe is | Love Itself. There is no Source but This, and nothing is that does |
| W2:264.1 | Its holiness, that stands beyond Your one creation or without the | Love Which holds all things within Itself. Father, Your Son is like |
| W2:264.1 | You in Your own Name today, to be at peace within Your everlasting | Love. |
| W2:266.2 | on our own, acknowledging our Self in each of us, united in the holy | Love of God. How many saviors God has given us! How can we lose the |
| W2:267.1 | Surrounding me is all the life that God created in His | Love. It calls to me in every heartbeat and in every breath, in every |
| W2:267.1 | I am a messenger of God, directed by His Voice, sustained by Him in | love, and held forever quiet and at peace within His loving arms. |
| W2:267.2 | not my own. Father, my heart is beating in the peace the Heart of | Love created. It is there and only there that I can be at home. |
| W2:268.1 | thus will I be able, too, to recognize my Self as You created me. In | Love was I created, and in Love will I remain forever. What can |
| W2:268.1 | recognize my Self as You created me. In Love was I created, and in | Love will I remain forever. What can frighten me when I let all |
| W2:272.1 | will accept no less than You have given me. I am surrounded by Your | Love, forever still, forever gentle, and forever safe. God's Son must |
| W2:272.2 | with dreams when Heaven can be chosen just as easily as hell and | love will happily replace all fear. |
| W2:273.2 | gave Your Son is with me still, in quietness and in my own eternal | love for You. |
| W2:274.1 | created them and give Your Son the honor due his sinlessness, the | love of brother to his brother and his friend. Through this I am |
| W2:274.2 | to Him and there will be no fear today because the day is given unto | Love. |
| W2:276.1 | His Fatherhood, and all is given us. Deny we were created in His | Love, and we deny our Self, to be unsure of who we are, of who our |
| W2:277.1 | He is as You created him, because he knows no laws except the Law of | Love. |
| W2:278.2 | instead of madness and instead of fear. For truth is safe and only | love is sure. |
| W2:279.1 | of dreams is promised me because God's Son is not abandoned by His | Love. Only in dreams is there a time when he appears to be in prison |
| W2:280.1 | willed that he be limitless and like Himself in freedom and in | love? |
| W2:280.2 | alone I find the way to You. Father, I lay no limits on the Son You | love and You created limitless. The honor that I give to him is |
| W2:WIHS.2 | and sounds must be translated from the witnesses of fear to those of | love. And when this is entirely accomplished, learning has achieved |
| W2:WIHS.4 | dreams remain to terrify you. And the memory of all your Father's | Love will not return to signify the end of dreams has come. |
| W2:WIHS.5 | Accept your Father's gift. It is a call from | Love to Love that it be but itself. The Holy Spirit is His gift by |
| W2:WIHS.5 | Accept your Father's gift. It is a call from Love to | Love that it be but itself. The Holy Spirit is His gift by Which the |
| W2:281.2 | I would not attack the Son He loves, for what He loves is mine to | love as well. |
| W2:282.2 | Father, Your Name is | Love, and so is mine. Such is the truth. And can the truth be changed |
| W2:283.1 | He my Father loves. His holiness remains the light of Heaven and the | Love of God. Is not what is beloved of You secure? Is not the light |
| W2:286.1 | me. Your peace is mine. My heart is quiet and my mind at rest. Your | Love is Heaven, and Your Love is mine. |
| W2:286.1 | My heart is quiet and my mind at rest. Your Love is Heaven, and Your | Love is mine. |
| W2:287.1 | can compare with my Identity? And would I rather live with fear than | love? |
| W2:WIRW.3 | attack, and murder? What can it perceive surrounding it but safety, | love, and joy? What is there it would choose to be condemned, and |
| W2:WIRW.4 | sleeps. His waking eyes perceive the sure reflection of his Father's | Love, the certain promise that he is redeemed. The real world |
| W2:293.1 | past because its source is gone and all its thoughts gone with it. | Love remains the only present state, whose Source is here forever and |
| W2:293.1 | it and showing me distorted forms of pain? Yet in the present, | love is obvious and its effects apparent. All the world shines in |
| W2:294.1 | for thoughts of fear are not invested there, nor is a mockery of | love bestowed upon it. Its neutrality protects it while it has a use. |
| W2:295.1 | must be redeemed together. Fear appears in many different forms, but | love is one. |
| W2:295.2 | me to use the eyes of Christ today and thus allow the Holy Spirit's | love to bless all things that I may look upon, that His forgiving |
| W2:295.2 | love to bless all things that I may look upon, that His forgiving | love may rest on me. |
| W2:298.1 | My gratitude permits my | love to be accepted without fear. And thus am I restored to my |
| W2:298.1 | that alone I will be saved, sure that I go through fear to meet my | Love. |
| W2:298.2 | certain sanctuary and escape from everything that would obscure my | love for God, my Father, and His holy Son. |
| W2:WISC.5 | Behold, the Son of God is one in us, and we can reach our Father's | Love through him. |
| W2:302.1 | vision changes darkness into light, for fear must disappear when | love has come. Let me forgive Your holy world today that I may look |
| W2:302.2 | Our | Love awaits us as we go to Him and walks beside us, showing us the |
| W2:303.1 | the sounds He understands and see but sights which show His Father's | Love. Let Him no longer be a stranger here, for He is born again in |
| W2:303.2 | given me. He is but what I really am in truth. He is the Son You | love above all things. He is my Self as You created me. It is not |
| W2:305.1 | and gently carries it to truth, no more to be the home of fear. For | Love has come and healed the world by giving it Christ's peace. |
| W2:306.1 | the world I made. Today I can go past all fear and be restored to | love and holiness and peace. Today I am redeemed and born anew into a |
| W2:306.2 | We cannot make an offering sufficient for Your Son. But in Your | Love, the gift of Christ is his. |
| W2:308.1 | His present blessing to the world, restoring it to timelessness and | love. And love is ever-present, here and now. |
| W2:308.1 | blessing to the world, restoring it to timelessness and love. And | love is ever-present, here and now. |
| W2:310.2 | There is no room in us for fear today, for we have welcomed | love into our hearts. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | to return to the eternal peace He shares with him. Be not afraid of | love. For it alone can heal all sorrow, wipe away all tears, and |
| W2:311.2 | we wait with open mind today to hear Your Judgment of the Son You | love. We do not know him, and we cannot judge. And so we let Your |
| W2:311.2 | love. We do not know him, and we cannot judge. And so we let Your | Love decide what he whom You created as Your Son must be. |
| W2:312.1 | fail to look upon what Christ would have him see and share Christ's | love for what he looks upon. |
| W2:313.1 | all things as sinless, so that fear has gone and where it was is | love invited in. And love will come wherever it is asked. This vision |
| W2:313.1 | so that fear has gone and where it was is love invited in. And | love will come wherever it is asked. This vision is Your gift. The |
| W2:318.1 | the goal the world is searching for. I am God's Son, His one Eternal | Love. I am salvation's means and end as well. |
| W2:320.1 | Father shines upon his mind and lays before it all the strength and | love in earth and Heaven. I am he to whom all this is given. I am he |
| W2:WICR.1 | thoughts, in number infinite and everywhere without all limit. Only | Love creates and only like Itself. There was no time when all that It |
| W2:WICR.2 | given all the power that Their own Creator has. For He would add to | Love by its extension. Thus His Son shares in creation and must |
| W2:WICR.4 | of all our doubts, past all our fears, there still is certainty. For | Love remains with all Its thought, Its sureness being theirs. God's |
| W2:322.2 | What loss can I anticipate except the loss of fear and the return of | Love into my mind? |
| W2:323.1 | sense of loss and sadness, all anxiety and doubt and freely let Your | Love come streaming in to his awareness, healing him of pain and |
| W2:323.2 | returns to us in wholeness and in joy. We are deceived no longer. | Love has now returned to our awareness. And we are at peace again, |
| W2:323.2 | our awareness. And we are at peace again, for fear has gone and only | love remains. |
| W2:326.1 | that You will gather Your Effects into the tranquil Heaven of Your | Love, where earth will disappear and separate thoughts unite in glory |
| W2:327.2 | give the means whereby conviction comes, and surety of Your abiding | Love is gained at last. |
| W2:330.1 | teach them they are powerless when God holds out His power and His | love and bids them take what is already theirs? The mind that is made |
| W2:WIE.1 | which It is denied. The ego is the “proof” that strength is weak and | love is fearful, life is really death, and what opposes God alone is |
| W2:WIE.5 | minds which God created as His Son, His dwelling-place, His joy, His | love, completely His, completely one with Him. |
| W2:331.1 | his damnation and be left without a certain way to his release? You | love me, Father. You could never leave me desolate, to die within a |
| W2:331.1 | to die within a world of pain and cruelty. How could I think that | Love has left Itself? There is no will except the will of Love. Fear |
| W2:331.1 | think that Love has left Itself? There is no will except the will of | Love. Fear is a dream and has no will that can conflict with Yours. |
| W2:332.2 | not bind the world again today. Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your | Love has given us the means to set it free. Father, we would release |
| W2:336.2 | is kept; Your Word remains unchanged within my mind; Your | love is still abiding in my heart. |
| W2:337.1 | My sinlessness ensures me perfect peace, eternal safety, everlasting | love, freedom forever from all thought of loss, complete deliverance |
| W2:337.1 | my sinlessness, created for me, now already mine, to feel God's | Love protecting me from harm, to understand my Father loves His Son, |
| W2:338.1 | to change them and exchange each fear thought for a happy thought of | love. He crucified himself. Yet God has planned that His beloved Son |
| W2:339.1 | day in fearlessness, without confusing pain with joy or fear with | love. |
| W2:340.2 | Father will not gather to Himself, awake in Heaven in the Heart of | Love. |
| W2:WIM.3 | eyes of Christ deliver them to all they look upon in mercy and in | love. Perception stands corrected in His sight, and what was meant to |
| W2:WIM.3 | Each lily of forgiveness offers all the world the silent miracle of | love. And each is laid before the Word of God upon the universal |
| W2:341.1 | Father, Your Son is holy. I am he on whom You smile in | love and tenderness so deep and dear and still the universe smiles |
| W2:341.1 | safe, how sacred then are we, abiding in Your smile, with all Your | Love bestowed upon us, living one with You in brotherhood and |
| W2:344.1 | with Heaven's treasures, which alone are real. Thus is the law of | love fulfilled. And thus Your Son arises and returns to You. |
| W2:345.1 | Son. And every one I give returns to me, reminding me the law of | love is universal. Even here it takes a form which can be recognized |
| W2:346.1 | and things perceived in time. I would forget all things except Your | Love. I would abide in You and know no laws except Your law of Love. |
| W2:346.1 | Your Love. I would abide in You and know no laws except Your law of | Love. And I would find the peace which You created for Your Son, |
| W2:346.2 | today what peace is ours when we forget all things except God's | Love. |
| W2:348.1 | You are here, and I am not alone. Surrounding me is everlasting | Love. I have no cause for anything except the perfect peace and joy I |
| W2:349.1 | give to them the freedom that I seek. For thus do I obey the law of | love and give what I would find and make my own. It will be given me |
| W2:350.2 | as we remember Him, His Son will be restored to us in the Reality of | Love. |
| W2:WAI.1 | Son, complete and healed and whole, shining in the reflection of His | Love. In me is His creation sanctified and guaranteed eternal life. |
| W2:WAI.1 | me is His creation sanctified and guaranteed eternal life. In me is | love perfected, fear impossible, and joy established without |
| W2:WAI.1 | I am the holy home of God Himself. I am the Heaven where His | love resides. I am His holy sinlessness itself, for in my purity |
| W2:352.1 | I come to You. Judgment will bind my eyes and make me blind. Yet | love, reflected in forgiveness here, reminds me You have given me a |
| W2:352.1 | I would hear Your Voice and find Your peace today. For I would | love my own Identity and find in Him the memory of You. |
| W2:355.1 | Son would be Himself and know You as his Father and Creator and his | Love. |
| W2:356.1 | He is Your Son, and You will answer him. The miracle reflects Your | Love, and thus it answers him. Your Name replaces every thought of |
| W2:358.1 | and let my voice be still, remembering. But let me not forget Your | Love and care, keeping Your promise to Your Son in my awareness |

| M:28.2 | as salvation, and pain and misery of any kind perceived as hell. | Love is no longer feared but gladly welcomed. Idols have disappeared, |
| M:28.5 | Now there are no distinctions. Differences have disappeared, and | Love looks on Itself. What further sight is needed? What remains that |
| M:28.5 | accomplish? We have seen the face of Christ, His sinlessness, His | love behind all forms, beyond all purposes. Holy are we because His |
| M:29.3 | is thus the escape from fear. And it is this that lets the memory of | love return to you. Do not, then, think that following the Holy |

| Tx:17.8 | This | loveliness is not a fantasy. It is the real world, bright and clean |
| Tx:17.9 | Who planned salvation could complete it thus. The real world, in its | loveliness, you learn to reach. Fantasies are all undone, and no one |
| Tx:17.11 | ugly in the darkness of your lack of reason is suddenly released to | loveliness. Not even what the Son of God made in insanity could be |

| Tx:24.32 | The special ones are all asleep, surrounded by a world of | loveliness they do not see. Freedom and peace and joy stand there |
| Tx:24.54 | It is His sinlessness that eyes which see can look upon. It is His | loveliness they see in everything. And it is He they look for |
| Tx:24.65 | fish, to house your specialness in better style or weave a frame of | loveliness around your hate, and you condemn it to decay and death. |
| Tx:25.18 | instead of yours, and you will see the masterpiece. Look at its | loveliness, and understand the Mind that thought it, not in flesh and |
| Tx:25.36 | And every flower that ever bloomed has saved its perfume and its | loveliness for you. What aim can supersede the Will of God and of His |

| Tx:28.7 | now, with consequences here. They will surprise you with their | loveliness. The ancient new ideas they bring will be the happy |
| Tx:31.93 | your own release. There is no place for hell within a world whose | loveliness can yet be so intense and so inclusive it is but a step |
| Tx:31.94 | of hell, the secret “sins,” and hidden hates be gone. And all the | loveliness which they concealed appear like lawns of Heaven to our |
| W1:23.4 | already holds a replacement for everything you think you see now. | Loveliness can light your images and so transform them that you will |
| W1:124.4 | in our hearts. Our minds contain His thoughts; our eyes behold His | loveliness in all we look upon. Today we see only the loving and the |
| W1:124.11 | glass and understand the sinless light you see belongs to you, the | loveliness you look on is your own. Count this half hour as your gift |

lovely (25) | ||
| Tx:13.28 | perfect purity in which you were created. Fear not to look upon the | lovely truth in you. Look through the cloud of guilt that dims your |
| Tx:17.7 | will look to you? In no fantasy have you ever seen anything so | lovely. Nothing you see here, sleeping or waking, comes near to such |
| Tx:17.38 | enclosure. The other is lightly framed and hung in light, | lovely to look upon for what it is. |
| Tx:18.11 | with truth. God and His whole creation have entered it together. How | lovely and how holy is your relationship, with the truth shining upon |
| Tx:18.94 | Yet even forgiveness is not the end. Forgiveness does make | lovely, but it does not create. It is the source of healing, but it |

| Tx:19.15 | Truth follows faith and peace, completing the process of making | lovely which they begin. For faith is still a learning goal, no |
| Tx:19.21 | and awe. It is the most “holy” concept in the ego's system— | lovely and powerful, wholly true, and necessarily protected with |
| Tx:20.5 | made for its pleasure and remember all these were made to make seem | lovely what you hate. Would you employ this hated thing to draw your |
| Tx:21.8 | anything particular. But you remember from just this little part how | lovely was the song, how wonderful the setting where you heard it, |
| Tx:22.54 | This holy relationship, | lovely in its innocence, mighty in strength, and blazing with a light |
| Tx:23.33 | its dying conqueror, its substitute, the savior from salvation. How | lovely do the laws of fear make death appear! Give thanks unto the |
| Tx:23.35 | to save. Be not deceived when madness takes a form you think is | lovely. What is intent on your destruction is not your friend. |
| Tx:23.42 | Is death in any form, however | lovely and charitable it may seem to be, a blessing and a sign the |

| Tx:24.41 | dream of specialness—however hidden or disguised the form; however | lovely it may seem to be; however much it delicately offers the hope |
| Tx:25.18 | the Mind that thought it, not in flesh and bones, but in a frame as | lovely as Itself. Its holiness lights up the sinlessness the frame of |
| Tx:27.7 | the message is the same. Adornment of the body seeks to show how | lovely are the witnesses for guilt. Concerns about the body |
| Tx:29.42 | as well. For nothing here but is defined as what you see it for. How | lovely is the world whose purpose is forgiveness of God's Son! How |
| Tx:30.42 | in any form that would content you not, but in the whole completely | lovely Thought God holds of you. |
| Tx:30.45 | outside of Heaven know not it is there. Yet still and white and | lovely will it shine through all eternity. There was no time it was |

| W1:186.11 | In | lovely contrast, certain as the sun's return each morning to dispel |

| Tx:22.59 | What can it be but universal blessing to look on what your Father | loves with charity? Extension of forgiveness is the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:23.10 | all conflict, triumph, and attack of any kind are all unknown. He | loves you perfectly, completely, and eternally. The Son of God at war |

| Tx:23.15 | His home and drive Him out of what He loves forever. And what He | loves must be forever quiet and at peace because it is His home. And |
| Tx:24.39 | Do not defend this senseless dream in which God is bereft of what He | loves and you remain beyond salvation. Only this is certain in this |
| Tx:24.40 | The Christ in you is very still. He looks on what He | loves and knows it as Himself. And thus does He rejoice at what He |
| Tx:24.45 | sought for your completion in each living thing that He beholds and | loves. And seeks it still, that each might offer you the love of God. |
| Tx:24.58 | but that your specialness will disappear before the Will of God, Who | loves each part of Him with equal love [and care]. The Christ in you |
| Tx:24.62 | demands does he withhold. Nothing it needs does he deny to what he | loves. And while it calls to him, he hears no other Voice. No effort |
| Tx:25.20 | make known to you His love if you but share His praise of what He | loves? God cherishes creation as the perfect Father that He is. And |
| Tx:25.43 | world to fear, and no one who is different from himself. And as he | loves them, so he looks upon himself with love and gentleness. He |
| Tx:25.73 | by you. Yet God ensured that justice would be done unto the Son He | loves and would protect from all unfairness you might seek to offer, |
| Tx:26.17 | is belongs to Him and will forever be as He created it. Nothing He | loves but must be sinless and beyond attack. Your special function |
| Tx:26.28 | as the rest. And each one teaches him that what he fear[s,] he | loves the most. What but a miracle could change his mind, so that he |
| Tx:27.47 | brings? Be not afraid of blessing, for the One Who blesses you | loves all the world and leaves nothing within the world that could be |
| Tx:27.69 | of his peace and happiness as is the weather or the time of day. It | loves him not but casts him as it will in any role that satisfies its |
| Tx:29.2 | Certain it is he knows not what love means. He fears to love and | loves to hate, and so he thinks that love is fearful—hate is love. |
| Tx:29.30 | all dreams as means to serve the function given Him. Because He | loves the dreamer not the dream, each dream becomes an offering of |
| Tx:30.36 | God Himself could not be free. For what is done to him whom God so | loves is done to God Himself. Think not He wills to bind you, Who has |
| W1:68.9 | with everyone and everything, safe in a world which protects you and | loves you and which you love in return. Try to feel safety |
| W1:95.21 | in this Self. I honor you because of what I am, and what He is, Who | loves us both as one. |
| W1:99.9 | you say, for these are words in which your freedom lies. Your Father | loves you. All the world of pain is not His Will. Forgive yourself |
| W1:100.6 | you. God asks that you be happy so the world can see how much He | loves His Son and wills no sorrow rises to abate his joy; no fear |
| W1:123.3 | change. Give thanks as well that you are changeless, for the Son He | loves is changeless as Himself. Be grateful you are saved. Be glad |
| W1:124.3 | and to those who went before or stayed with us a while. And God, Who | loves us with the equal love in which we were created, smiles on us |
| W1:151.7 | merely bear false witness to God's Son. He recognizes only what God | loves, and in the holy light of what He sees do all the ego's dreams |
| W1:153.12 | of as a game that happy children play. It was designed by One Who | loves His children, and Who would replace their fearful toys with |
| W1:168.1 | Him and suffer from deception. He remains entirely accessible. He | loves His Son. There is no certainty but this, yet this suffices. He |
| W1:168.1 | He will love His Son forever. When his mind remains asleep, He | loves him still. And when his mind awakes, He loves him with a |
| W1:168.1 | remains asleep, He loves him still. And when his mind awakes, He | loves him with a never-changing Love. |
| W1:168.4 | God | loves His Son. Request Him now to give the means by which this world |
| W1:168.6 | prepared for us He gives and we receive. Such is His Will because He | loves His Son. To Him we pray today, returning but the words He gave |
| W1:184.12 | to the pitiful inheritance you made as fitting tribute to the Son He | loves. |
| W1:190.8 | have gladly paid not to be free. In pain is God denied the Son He | loves. In pain does fear appear to triumph over love and time replace |
| W1:193.5 | them all, and they reflect His loving kindness to the Son He | loves. Each lesson has a central thought, the same in all of them. |
| W1:199.2 | rests in God, and who can be afraid who lives in Innocence and only | loves? |
| W1:219.1 | And then return to earth without confusion as to what my Father | loves forever as His Son. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still |
| W2:235.1 | sure that I am saved and safe forever in His arms. I am the Son He | loves. And I am saved because God in His mercy wills it so. |
| W2:238.2 | And so again today we pause to think how much our Father | loves us. And how dear His Son, created by His Love, remains to Him |
| W2:239.1 | of sin and guilt? And can it be that we are not among them when He | loves His Son forever and with perfect constancy, knowing he is as He |
| W2:WIS.3 | an end; eternal life must die. And God Himself has lost the Son He | loves, with but corruption to complete Himself, His Will forever |
| W2:WIS.4 | that ends in death. But all the while his Father shines on him and | loves him with an everlasting Love which his pretenses cannot change |
| W2:276.1 | holy as Myself.” And thus did God become the Father of the Son He | loves, for thus was he created. This the Word His Son did not create |
| W2:279.2 | will accept Your promises today and give my faith to them. My Father | loves the Son Whom He created as His own. Would You withhold the |
| W2:281.2 | safe in Heaven, watching over me. And I would not attack the Son He | loves, for what He loves is mine to love as well. |
| W2:281.2 | over me. And I would not attack the Son He loves, for what He | loves is mine to love as well. |
| W2:282.1 | this the choice to recognize the Self Whom God created as the Son He | loves and Who remains my one Reality. |
| W2:283.1 | is unchangeable. Let me not worship idols. I am He my Father | loves. His holiness remains the light of Heaven and the Love of God. |
| W2:316.1 | a past mistake to go and leave no shadow on the holy mind my Father | loves. His grace is given me in every gift a brother has received |
| W2:327.1 | to Him. For thus I will be sure that He has not abandoned me and | loves me still, awaiting but my call to give me all the help I need |
| W2:337.1 | to feel God's Love protecting me from harm, to understand my Father | loves His Son, to know I am the Son my Father loves. |
| W2:337.1 | understand my Father loves His Son, to know I am the Son my Father | loves. |
| W2:347.2 | Voice for God assuring you that He has judged you as the Son He | loves. |
| W2:E.6 | we wait His answers, as we ask His Will in everything we do. He | loves God's Son as we would love him, and He teaches us how to behold |
| M:11.1 | is man's inheritance. The world you see cannot be the world God | loves, and yet His Word assures us that He loves the world. God's |
| M:11.1 | cannot be the world God loves, and yet His Word assures us that He | loves the world. God's Word has promised us that peace is possible |
| M:11.2 | death as the inevitable end of life. God's Word assures you that He | loves the world; your judgment says it is unlovable. Who is right? |
| M:27.2 | care, perhaps today. Or if he waits, yet is the ending certain. Who | loves such a god knows not of love, because he has denied that life |

| Tx:11.86 | is its end. The world you see is the delusional system of those made | mad by guilt. Look carefully at this world, and you will realize that |
| Tx:18.6 | this could only remain within in quiet and take no part in all the | mad projection by which this world was made. Call it not sin but |
| Tx:18.7 | The truth will save you. It has not left you to go out into the | mad world and so depart from you. Inward is sanity; insanity is |
| Tx:18.7 | substitutions, touched with insanity and swirling lightly off on a | mad course like feathers dancing insanely in the wind, have no |
| Tx:18.8 | Holy Spirit takes you gently by the hand and retraces with you your | mad journey outside yourself, leading you gently back to the truth |
| Tx:18.9 | request, He has set the course inward to the truth you share. In the | mad world outside you, nothing can be shared but only substituted, |
| Tx:19.82 | nor incorruptible. It is nothing. It is the result of a tiny | mad idea of corruption which can be corrected. For God has answered |
| Tx:19.96 | come to you against your will. It is your will to look on this. No | mad desire, no trivial impulse to forget again, no stab of fear, nor |
| Tx:20.52 | seems to be what it is not. No more than that. The instant that the | mad idea of making your relationship with God unholy seemed to be |
| Tx:20.52 | In that unholy instant, time was born and bodies made to house the | mad idea and give it the illusion of reality. And so it seemed to |
| Tx:20.52 | for a little while in time and vanished. For what could house this | mad idea against reality but for an instant? |
| Tx:21.21 | This is the Son of God's replacement for his will, a | mad revolt against what must forever be. This is the statement that |
| Tx:21.21 | and leave himself without what God has willed for him. This is the | mad idea you have enshrined upon your altars and which you worship. |
| Tx:21.33 | belief you made as means for losing certainty and finding sin. This | mad direction was your choice, and by your faith in what you chose, |
| Tx:21.44 | —still limited and incomplete, yet born within you. Not wholly | mad, you have been willing to look on much of your insanity and |
| Tx:22.52 | of the outcome as He is sure of His Creator's love. He knows this | mad decision was made by one as dear to His Creator as love is to |
| Tx:23.8 | you is possible. And God thinks otherwise. This is no war—only the | mad belief the Will of God can be attacked and overthrown. You may |
| Tx:25.8 | His Father's Will. The Holy Spirit links the other part, the tiny | mad desire to be separate, different, and special, to the Christ, to |
| Tx:25.26 | is another Maker of the world, the simultaneous Corrector of the | mad belief that anything could be established and maintained without |
| Tx:25.52 | and think of it more carefully. It must be so that either God is | mad or is this world a place of madness. Not one Thought of His makes |
| Tx:25.53 | truth, he has decided he is not his Father's Son because the Son is | mad, and sanity must lie apart from both the Father and the Son. This |
| Tx:25.55 | and meaningless. Love is the basis for a world perceived as wholly | mad to sinners who believe theirs is the way to sanity. But sin is |
| Tx:25.57 | be madness to entrust salvation to the insane. Because He is not | mad has God appointed One as sane as He to raise a saner world to |
| Tx:25.57 | the world he sees, but enter into it in quietness and show him he is | mad. This One but points to an alternative, another way of looking at |
| Tx:25.60 | one must gain because another lost. If this were true, then God is | mad indeed! But what is this belief except a form of the more basic |
| Tx:25.60 | be the total cost of any gain at all. You who believe that God is | mad, look carefully at this and understand that it must be that |
| Tx:25.62 | Remember all temptation is but this—a | mad belief that God's insanity would make you sane and give you what |
| Tx:26.42 | by long ago, which cannot be relived. And all of time is but the | mad belief that what is over is still here and now. |
| Tx:27.82 | and done to him. Into eternity, where all is one, there crept a tiny | mad idea at which the Son of God remembered not to laugh. In his |
| W1:45.9 | Under all the senseless thoughts and | mad ideas with which you have cluttered up your mind are the thoughts |
| W1:54.4 | I have no private thoughts, I cannot see a private world. Even the | mad idea of separation had to be shared before it could form the |
| W1:71.9 | the first is your full release from all your own insane attempts and | mad proposals to free yourself. They have led to depression and |
| W1:100.1 | part in it completes your Father's plan. Salvation must reverse the | mad belief in separate thoughts and separate bodies which lead |
| W1:134.7 | not deceived. It does not heed the self-accusing shrieks of sinners | mad with guilt. It looks on them with quiet eyes and merely says to |
| W1:135.8 | ridiculous yet deeply cherished, are the sources for the many | mad attacks you make upon it. For it seems to fail your hopes, your |
| W1:136.11 | for your own defense. And you believe that Heaven quails before such | mad attacks as these, with God made blind by your illusions, truth |
| W1:138.8 | These | mad beliefs can gain unconscious hold of great intensity and grip the |
| W1:139.6 | question of the world. What does this prove except the world is | mad? Why share its madness in the sad belief that what is universal |
| W1:152.6 | He made a world where such things seem to have reality. He is not | mad. Yet only madness makes a world like this. |
| W1:153.13 | by your Father, left alone in terror in a fearful world made | mad by sin and guilt, be happy now. That game is over. Now a quiet |
| W1:155.3 | This is the simple choice we make today. The | mad illusion will remain awhile in evidence for those to look upon |
| W1:187.7 | forms that suffering appears to take. And sacrifice is an idea so | mad that sanity dismisses it at once. |
| W1:190.3 | It demonstrates God is denied, confused with fear, perceived as | mad, and seen as traitor to Himself. If God is real, there is no |
| W1:190.4 | could conceive of them as cause of anything? Their witness, pain, is | mad as they and no more to be feared than the insane illusions which |
| W1:198.8 | that They could die! How foolish to believe you can attack! How | mad to think that you could be condemned and that the holy Son of God |
| W2:WIS.1 | Sin is insanity. It is the means by which the mind is driven | mad and seeks to let illusions take the place of truth. And being |
| W2:WIS.1 | mad and seeks to let illusions take the place of truth. And being | mad, it sees illusions where the truth should be and where it really |
| W2:298.1 | takes away. And I draw near the end of senseless journeys, | mad careers, and artificial values. I accept instead what God |
| W2:FL.5 | to sanity in which we understand that anger is insane, attack is | mad, and vengeance merely foolish fantasy. We have been saved from |
| M:4.17 | he fully understands that defenses are but the foolish guardians of | mad illusions. The more grotesque the dream, the fiercer and more |

| Tx:1.27 | Miracles enable man to heal the sick and raise the dead, because he | made sickness and death himself and can abolish both. You are a |
| Tx:1.29 | because “sin” is a man-made word with threat connotations which he | made up himself. No real threat is involved anywhere. Nothing is |
| Tx:1.53 | but only to the extent that he reinforces errors they have already | made. This makes them vulnerable to the distortions of others since |
| Tx:1.70 | you. The illusion that shallow roots can be deepened and thus | made to hold is one of the distortions on which the reversal of the |
| Tx:1.91 | The concept of any sort of need hierarchy arose because, having | made this fundamental error, he had already fragmented himself into |
| Tx:1.93 | He can never control the effects of fear himself because he | made fear and believes in what he made. In attitude, then, though not |
| Tx:1.93 | effects of fear himself because he made fear and believes in what he | made. In attitude, then, though not in content, he resembles his own |
| Tx:1.93 | what no one else thinks is true. It is true for him because it was | made by him. |
| Tx:1.98 | 53. The miracle compares what man has | made with the higher level creation, accepting what is in accord as |
| Tx:2.11 | this existed before, nor does it actually exist now. The world was | made as “a natural grand division,” or a projecting outward of God. |
| Tx:2.19 | can do anything I ask. I have asked you to perform miracles and have | made it clear that miracles are natural, corrective, healing, and |
| Tx:2.62 | should not attempt to do so. The very fact that they are afraid has | made them vulnerable to miscreation. They are therefore likely to |
| Tx:2.80 | Remember that whenever there is fear, it is because you have not | made up your mind. Your will is split, and your behavior inevitably |
| Tx:2.92 | they know that thoughts can hurt them. Their own thoughts have | made them vulnerable. |
| Tx:2.95 | you have misperceived or miscreated us and believe in what you have | made. You would never have done this if you were not afraid of your |
| Tx:2.96 | lies above the miracle level. All psychoanalytic theorists have | made some contribution in this connection, but none of them has seen |
| Tx:2.96 | but none of them has seen it in its true entirety. They have all | made one common error in that they attempted to uncover unconscious |
| Tx:2.100 | of intervals which do not really exist. The faulty use of creation | made this necessary as a corrective device. “And God so loved the |

| Tx:4.6 | Every symptom which the ego has | made involves a contradiction in terms. This is because the mind is |
| Tx:4.12 | is natural enough for the ego to try to protect itself once you have | made it, but it is not natural for you to want to obey its laws |
| Tx:4.15 | be doubtful forever, or rather as long as you believe in it. You who | made it cannot trust it because you know it is not real. The only |
| Tx:4.16 | are. You have chosen, therefore, to create unlike Him, and you have | made fear for yourselves. You are not at peace because you are not |
| Tx:4.25 | is a process which literally alters both, because they were not | made either by or with the unalterable. It is particularly important |
| Tx:4.26 | Your own present state is a good example of how the mind | made the ego. You do have knowledge at times, but when you throw it |
| Tx:4.27 | protection, and great charity. The reaction of man to the self he | made is not at all surprising. In fact it duplicates in many ways how |
| Tx:4.32 | impossible. The ego never gives out of abundance, because it was | made as a substitute for it. That is why the concept of “getting” |
| Tx:4.49 | cannot believe that God loves you. You do not love what you have | made, and what you made does not love you. Being made out of the |
| Tx:4.49 | that God loves you. You do not love what you have made, and what you | made does not love you. Being made out of the denial of the Father, |
| Tx:4.49 | love what you have made, and what you made does not love you. Being | made out of the denial of the Father, the ego has no allegiance to |
| Tx:4.49 | and His Souls because of the hatred you have for the self you have | made. You project onto your own idea of yourself the will to |
| Tx:4.49 | to separate, which conflicts with the love you feel for what you | made because you made it. No human love is without this ambivalence, |
| Tx:4.49 | which conflicts with the love you feel for what you made because you | made it. No human love is without this ambivalence, and since no ego |
| Tx:4.52 | to block it, and it is forever unwilling to destroy what you have | made. No one can see through a wall, but I can step around it. Watch |
| Tx:4.52 | you and honor you and maintain complete respect for what you have | made, but I will neither honor it nor love it unless it is true. |
| Tx:4.54 | which implies a lack, has already been accepted. That is why we | made no distinction before between having the Kingdom of God and |
| Tx:4.63 | The habit of engaging with God and His creations is easily | made if you actively refuse to let your minds slip away. The problem |
| Tx:4.66 | over your lives, you will see how carefully the preparations were | made. I am in charge of the second coming, and my judgment, which is |
| Tx:4.74 | surprise you to learn that had the ego wished to do so it could have | made the eternal because, as a product of the mind, it is endowed |
| Tx:4.78 | automatically. When you make a decision of purpose, then, you have | made a decision about your future effort, a decision which will |
| Tx:4.85 | that you are here. In learning to escape from the illusions you have | made, your great debt to each other is something you must never |
| Tx:4.87 | are immediately recognized as eternal. Since this recognition is | made by you and not the ego, the recognition itself establishes that |
| Tx:5.12 | God honored even the miscreations of His Children because they had | made them, but He also blessed them with a way of thinking that could |
| Tx:5.19 | The Atonement and the separation began at the same time. When man | made the ego, God placed in him the call to joy. This call is so |
| Tx:5.19 | is why you can choose to listen to two voices within you. One you | made yourself and that one is not of God. But the other is given you |
| Tx:5.22 | without hindrance. Direct communication was broken because you had | made another voice through another will. The Holy Spirit calls you |
| Tx:5.24 | other way, remaining quiet even in the midst of the turmoil you have | made for yourselves. The Voice for God is always quiet, because it |
| Tx:5.26 | because it is a decision. The decision itself is very simple. It is | made on the basis of which call is worth more to you. |
| Tx:5.27 | it, because the decision itself is the decision to share. It is | made by giving and is therefore the one act of mind that resembles |
| Tx:5.27 | By deciding for God, I showed you that this decision can be | made and that you can make it. |
| Tx:5.28 | I promised you that the mind that | made the decision for me is also in you and that you can let it |
| Tx:5.36 | opposed. The Holy Spirit has the task of undoing what the ego has | made. He undoes it in the same realm of discourse in which the ego |
| Tx:5.42 | If peace is eternal, you are at home only in eternity. The ego | made the world as it perceives it, but the Holy Spirit, the |
| Tx:5.42 | perceives it, but the Holy Spirit, the reinterpreter of what the ego | made, sees it only as a teaching device for bringing you home. The |
| Tx:5.42 | The mind must be led into eternity through time because, having | made time, it is capable of perceiving its opposite. |
| Tx:5.43 | opposition. Correct and learn and be open to learning. You have not | made truth, but truth can still set you free. Look as the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:5.49 | of the Atonement, it lacks the healing potential it holds. You | made the distinction in terms of feelings, which led to a decision |
| Tx:5.49 | you did not recognize how to undo their existence because you had | made them. |
| Tx:5.59 | The word “create” is appropriate here because, once what you have | made is undone by the Holy Spirit, the blessed residue is restored |
| Tx:5.66 | not learned it. But again, your decision can be unmade as well as | made. Remember, though, that the alternatives are unalterable. |
| Tx:5.67 | open to you. God created one, and so you cannot eradicate it. You | made the other, and so you can. Only what God creates is irreversible |
| Tx:5.67 | what God creates is irreversible and unchangeable. What you have | made can always be changed, because when you do not think like God |
| Tx:5.73 | Alternate interpretations were unnecessary until the first one was | made, and speaking itself was unnecessary before the ego was made. |
| Tx:5.73 | one was made, and speaking itself was unnecessary before the ego was | made. |
| Tx:5.74 | wrong, because they are based on a complete fallacy which they were | made to uphold. Nothing the ego perceives is interpreted correctly. |
| Tx:5.74 | Perceiving it as fearful, it interprets it fearfully. Having | made you afraid, you do not appeal to the Higher Court, because you |
| Tx:5.79 | came to share the light with you. Remember the symbolic reference we | made before to the ego's dark glass, and remember also that we said, |
| Tx:5.92 | Why should you listen to the endless insane calls which you think are | made upon you when you know the Voice of God Himself is in you? God |
| Tx:5.93 | God Himself gave you the perfect correction for everything you have | made which is not in accord with His holy Will. I have made His plan |
| Tx:5.93 | you have made which is not in accord with His holy Will. I have | made His plan perfectly explicit to you and have also told you of |
| Tx:5.95 | difficult. This is obvious if you realize that you must already have | made a decision not to be wholly joyous if that is how you feel. |
| Tx:5.95 | merely to return your thinking to the point at which the error was | made and give it over to the Atonement in peace. Say to yourselves |
| Tx:5.96 | I must have decided wrongly, because I am not at peace. I | made the decision myself, but I can also decide otherwise. I will to |
| Tx:6.7 | Assault can ultimately be | made only on the body. There is little doubt that one body can |
| Tx:6.8 | I have | made it perfectly clear that I am like you and you are like me, but |
| Tx:6.10 | Himself, and so it is true forever. I believed in it and therefore | made it forever true for me. Help me to teach it to our brothers in |
| Tx:6.19 | that makes anyone misunderstand anything. Their own imperfect love | made them vulnerable to projection, and out of their own fear they |
| Tx:6.19 | entirely without anger, because their own sense of guilt had | made them angry. |
| Tx:6.20 | love. These are not like the several slips into impatience which I | made. I had learned the Atonement prayer, which I also came to teach, |
| Tx:6.26 | yourself first out of awareness and thus imagine that you have | made yourself safe. |
| Tx:6.33 | outward. Although perception of any kind is unnecessary, you | made it, and the Holy Spirit can therefore use it well. He can |
| Tx:6.40 | hear and teach and learn what is not true. From this, which you have | made, you have taught yourselves to believe that you are not what you |
| Tx:6.41 | teach only by Him. You are only love, but when you denied this, you | made what you are something you must learn. We said before that the |
| Tx:6.46 | When God created you, He | made you part of Him. That is why attack within the Kingdom is |
| Tx:6.46 | of Him. That is why attack within the Kingdom is impossible. You | made the ego without love, and so it does not love you. You could not |
| Tx:6.48 | the Holy Spirit, but it does believe that part of the same mind that | made it is against it. It interprets this as a justification for |
| Tx:6.53 | created, but it is the kindest solution possible to what you have | made. In an impossible situation, you can develop your abilities to |
| Tx:6.55 | possible, however, not because the laws are true, but because you | made them. What would be gained if God proved to you that you have |
| Tx:6.55 | God teach you that you have sinned? If He confronted the self you | made with the truth He created for you, what could you be but afraid? |
| Tx:6.57 | not believe in your own perfection. Could God teach you that you had | made a split mind, when He knows your mind only as whole? What God |
| Tx:6.62 | does not exist. The Holy Spirit, as always, takes what you have | made and translates it into a learning device for you. Again as |
| Tx:6.76 | dawn on your minds that you are trying to undo a decision which was | made irrevocably for you. That is why we suggested before that there |
| Tx:6.94 | minds and thus placed part of your mind outside it. What you have | made has thus divided your will and given you a sick mind which must |
| Tx:6.95 | is unnecessary. You have exerted great effort to preserve what you | made because it was not true. Therefore, you must now turn your |
| Tx:7.22 | learn at all. The Holy Spirit teaches you to use what the ego has | made to teach the opposite of what the ego has learned. The kind of |
| Tx:7.23 | You | made the effort to learn, and the Holy Spirit has a unified goal for |
| Tx:7.37 | recognizing their universality. Without this recognition, you have | made the laws themselves meaningless to you. Yet the laws are not |
| Tx:7.45 | seem to be meaningful. Exceptions are fearful, because they are | made by fear. The “fearful healer” is a contradiction in terms and is |
| Tx:7.49 | his for him, you help him undo the change his ego thinks it has | made in him. As you can hear two voices, so you can see in two ways. |
| Tx:7.58 | decision which the ego could possibly encounter, if the mind which | made it knew itself. And if it recognized any part of the Sonship, it |
| Tx:7.59 | it makes illusions it will believe in them, because that is how it | made them. |
| Tx:7.61 | untrue. You cannot deny that, when you believe something, you have | made it true for you. |
| Tx:7.73 | All illusions about the Sonship are dispelled together, as they were | made together. Teach no one that he is what you would not want to be. |
| Tx:7.74 | You | made perception, and it must last as long as you want it. Illusions |
| Tx:7.88 | Do not be afraid of the ego. It does depend on your mind and, as you | made it by believing in it, so you can dispel it by withdrawing |
| Tx:7.89 | apparent, but it is not recognized as beyond belief, because it was | made by belief. |
| Tx:7.90 | the ego is unbelievable and will forever be unbelievable. You who | made the ego by believing the unbelievable cannot make this judgment |
| Tx:7.105 | pain and joy and will lead you out of the confusion which you have | made. There is no confusion in the mind of a Son of God whose will |
| Tx:7.108 | a strain, because he was not created for the environment that he has | made. He therefore cannot adapt to it, nor can he adapt it to him. |
| Tx:7.109 | Consider the kingdom you have | made and judge its worth fairly. Is it worthy to be a home for a |
| Tx:8.2 | will be restored when you meet its conditions. This is not a bargain | made by God, Who makes no bargains. It is merely the result of your |
| Tx:8.4 | must have taught you the wrong things simply because it has not | made you happy. On this basis alone, its value should be questioned. |
| Tx:8.5 | for yourselves, but so is its outcome. If the outcome of yours has | made you unhappy and if you want a different one, a change in the |
| Tx:8.14 | all things because it created all things. By creating all things, it | made them part of itself. You are the Will of God, because this is |
| Tx:8.22 | and you will know it if you are willing to look at what the ego has | made of you. This is your responsibility, because once you have |
| Tx:8.22 | the Atonement for yourself. What other choice could you make? Having | made this choice, you will begin to learn and understand why you have |
| Tx:8.46 | and expect joy in return? And what else but joy would you want? You | made neither yourself nor your function. You made only the decision |
| Tx:8.46 | joy would you want? You made neither yourself nor your function. You | made only the decision to be unworthy of both. Yet you could not make |
| Tx:8.54 | His separated Sons, the Holy Spirit interprets everything you have | made in the light of what He is. The ego separates through the body. |
| Tx:8.59 | Remember that the Bible says, “The Word (or thought) was | made flesh.” Strictly speaking this is impossible, since it seems to |
| Tx:8.59 | to exist, just as different orders of miracles do. Thought cannot be | made into flesh except by belief, since thought is not physical. Yet |
| Tx:8.62 | not mind, is a fragmented (or sick) interpretation. Mind cannot be | made physical, but it can be made manifest through the physical if it |
| Tx:8.62 | sick) interpretation. Mind cannot be made physical, but it can be | made manifest through the physical if it uses the body to go beyond |
| Tx:8.66 | You are not limited by the body, and thought cannot be | made flesh. Yet mind can be manifested through the body if it goes |
| Tx:8.74 | impartial judgment. When the ego calls on a witness, it has already | made the witness an ally. |
| Tx:8.90 | of God is one of the strangest beliefs that the human mind has ever | made. This could not possibly have occurred unless the mind were |
| Tx:8.103 | induce panic. Willing against reality, though impossible, can be | made into a very persistent goal, even though you do not want it. But |
| Tx:9.8 | but you do need to learn to want this, and for this all learning was | made. This is the Holy Spirit's good use of an ability which you do |
| Tx:9.8 | good use of an ability which you do not need, but which you have | made. Give it to Him! You do not know how to use it. He will teach |
| Tx:9.11 | you did make, into the ability to share, He translates what you have | made into what God created. If you would accomplish this through Him, |
| Tx:9.12 | first and then overlook it. Yet how can you overlook what you have | made real? By seeing it clearly, you have made it real and cannot |
| Tx:9.12 | you overlook what you have made real? By seeing it clearly, you have | made it real and cannot overlook it. |
| Tx:9.14 | at all, or you will also believe that you must undo what you have | made in order to be forgiven. What has no effect does not exist, and |
| Tx:9.17 | is borrowed from your eternity. This is the Second Coming, which was | made for you as the First was created. The Second Coming is merely |
| Tx:9.23 | and then uses them to prove that the nightmare is real. Having | made it real, he then attempts to dispel its effects by depreciating |
| Tx:9.38 | you the means to find it? If He wills you to have it, He must have | made it possible and very easy to obtain it. Your brothers are |
| Tx:9.52 | grandeur is not delusional, because you did not make it. You have | made grandiosity and are afraid of it because it is a form of attack, |
| Tx:9.54 | slips away from you, you have replaced it with something you have | made. Perhaps it is the belief in littleness; perhaps it is the |
| Tx:9.70 | do not make what you remember; you merely accept again what has been | made but was rejected. The ability to accept truth in this world is |
| Tx:9.73 | if you will look at it. By deciding against your reality, you have | made yourself vigilant against God and His Kingdom. And it is this |
| Tx:9.78 | A sick god must be an idol, | made in the image of what its maker thinks he is. And that is exactly |
| Tx:9.81 | You would save them and serve them, because you believe that they | made you. You think they are your father because you are projecting |
| Tx:9.81 | because you are projecting onto them the fearful fact that you | made them to replace God. Yet when they seem to speak to you, |
| Tx:9.82 | awareness you are healed. You will hear the god you listen to. You | made the god of sickness, and by making him, you made yourself able |
| Tx:9.82 | you listen to. You made the god of sickness, and by making him, you | made yourself able to hear him. Yet you did not create him, because |
| Tx:9.83 | your real Father. You cannot make your father, and the father you | made did not make you. Honor is not due to illusions, for to honor |
| Tx:9.84 | if you accept him, you will bow down and worship him because he was | made as God's replacement. He is the belief that you can choose which |
| Tx:9.85 | gods before Him. God is not at war with the god of sickness you | made, but you are. He is the symbol of willing against God, and you |
| Tx:9.85 | see him, he will disappear into the nothingness out of which he was | made. |
| Tx:9.88 | because it is without God. You have given your peace to the gods you | made, but they are not there to take it from you, and you are not |
| Tx:9.89 | manner of your creation established you as creators. What you have | made is so unworthy of you that you could hardly want it if you were |
| Tx:9.95 | this means to you. Unless you are sick, you cannot keep the gods you | made, for only in sickness could you possibly want them. Blasphemy, |
| Tx:9.95 | be sick. This is the offering which your god demands because, having | made him out of your insanity, he is an insane idea. He has many |
| Tx:9.96 | entered the Mind of God's Son against His Will. The “attack on God” | made His Son think he was fatherless, and out of his depression, he |
| Tx:9.96 | made His Son think he was fatherless, and out of his depression, he | made the god of depression. This was his alternative to joy, because |
| Tx:9.96 | nothing, but you are not of yourselves. If you were, what you have | made would be true, and you could never escape. |
| Tx:9.103 | yourself the joy which was created for you for the misery you have | made for yourselves. God has given you the means for undoing what you |
| Tx:9.103 | yourselves. God has given you the means for undoing what you have | made. Listen, and you will learn what you are. |
| Tx:9.105 | Son is to be known. You believe that the sick things which you have | made are your real creations, because you believe that the sick |
| Tx:10.2 | someone who really believed this question involves conflict? If you | made the ego, how can the ego have made you? The authority problem |
| Tx:10.2 | involves conflict? If you made the ego, how can the ego have | made you? The authority problem remains the only source of perceived |
| Tx:10.2 | remains the only source of perceived conflict, because the ego was | made out of the wish of God's Son to father Him. The ego, then, is |
| Tx:10.2 | The ego, then, is nothing more than a delusional system in which you | made your own father. Make no mistake about this. It sounds insane |
| Tx:10.2 | cornerstone of its thought system. And either the ego, which you | made, is your father, or its whole thought system will not stand. |
| Tx:10.3 | You have | made by projection, but God has created by extension. The cornerstone |
| Tx:10.8 | Waiting is possible only in time, but time has no meaning. You who | made delay can leave time behind simply by recognizing that neither |
| Tx:10.39 | for we must look first at this to look beyond it since you have | made it real. We will undo this error quietly together and then look |
| Tx:10.54 | meaning. Holding error clearly in mind and protecting what it has | made real, the ego proceeds to the next step in its thought system— |
| Tx:10.63 | he places himself at the altar of his god, whether it be the god he | made or the God who created him. That is why his slavery is as |
| Tx:10.71 | autonomy, you tried to create unlike your Father, believing what you | made to be capable of being unlike Him. Yet everything in what you |
| Tx:10.71 | to be capable of being unlike Him. Yet everything in what you have | made that is true is like Him. Only this is the real world, and |
| Tx:10.72 | until you do you will not know that it is yours already. You have | made many ideas which you have placed between yourselves and your |
| Tx:10.72 | it is obscure. You do not know the difference between what you have | made and what God created, and so you do not know the difference |
| Tx:10.72 | created, and so you do not know the difference between what you have | made and what you have created. |
| Tx:10.73 | is all that the Holy Spirit has saved for you out of what you have | made, and to perceive only this is salvation because it is the |
| Tx:10.75 | And then everything you | made will be forgotten, the good and the bad, the false and the true. |
| Tx:10.77 | you did not make, and do not defend yourself against truth. You | made the problem which God has answered. Ask yourselves, therefore, |
| Tx:10.90 | you will accept the real world in place of the false one you have | made. And then your Father will lean down to you and take the last |
| Tx:11.1 | you will respond as if he had actually done so, because you have | made his error real to you. To interpret error is to give it power, |
| Tx:11.11 | the only emotions of which you are capable. One is false, for it was | made out of denial, and denial depends on the real belief in what is |
| Tx:11.16 | himself. Whatever the sickness, there is but one remedy. You will be | made whole as you make whole, for to perceive in sickness the appeal |
| Tx:11.27 | that it does matter to you. It is only you, therefore, who have | made the request outrageous, for nothing can be asked of you, and |
| Tx:11.27 | is of the ego and never of God. No “outrageous” request can be | made of one who recognizes what is valuable and wants to accept |
| Tx:11.32 | is eternal. God gave you the real world in exchange for the one you | made out of your split mind, and which is the symbol of death. For if |
| Tx:11.33 | against Him, and that is why you have no control over the world you | made. It is not a world of will because it is governed by the desire |
| Tx:11.33 | desire to be unlike Him, and this desire is not will. The world you | made is therefore totally chaotic, governed by arbitrary and |
| Tx:11.33 | and senseless “laws,” and without meaning of any kind. For it was | made out of what you do not want, projected from your mind because |
| Tx:11.43 | yourself as weaker, you attempt to “equalize” the situation you have | made. You use attack to do so because you believe that attack was |
| Tx:11.46 | learn of perfect love with a split mind because a split mind has | made itself a poor learner. You tried to make the separation eternal |
| Tx:11.50 | curriculum goal, is learning how not to overcome the split which | made this goal believable. And you can not overcome it, for all your |
| Tx:11.61 | will gain the real world. For in this holy perception, you will be | made whole, and the Atonement will radiate from your acceptance of it |
| Tx:11.68 | in a different place, separated from each other because you | made them different. The mind then sees a divided world outside |
| Tx:11.70 | a prisoner of this world. You can decide to see it right. What you | made of it is not its reality, for its reality is only what you gave |
| Tx:11.79 | When you | made what is not true visible, what is true became invisible. Yet it |
| Tx:11.80 | will correct the perception of everything you see. For what you have | made invisible is the only truth, and what you have not heard is the |
| Tx:11.81 | remember. Yet the memory of God cannot shine in a mind which has | made it invisible and wants to keep it so. For the memory of God can |
| Tx:11.81 | hardly aspire to control the universe. But look upon what you have | made of it and rejoice that it is not so. Son of God, be not content |
| Tx:11.82 | Everything you | made has never been and is invisible because the Holy Spirit does not |
| Tx:11.82 | behold, and through His vision your perception is healed. You have | made the invisible the only truth that this world holds. Valuing |
| Tx:11.82 | not there. And Christ is invisible to you because of what you have | made visible to yourselves. Yet it does not matter how much distance |
| Tx:11.84 | real world was given you by God in loving exchange for the world you | made and which you see. But take it from the hand of Christ and look |
| Tx:11.86 | is its end. The world you see is the delusional system of those | made mad by guilt. Look carefully at this world, and you will realize |
| Tx:11.90 | In this strange world which you have | made, the Son of God has sinned. How could you see him, then? By |
| Tx:11.93 | found it. For everyone is seeking to escape from the prison he has | made, and the way to find release is not denied him. Being in him, he |
| Tx:12.14 | lies in defiance and that attack is grandeur. You think you have | made a world which God would destroy; and by loving Him, which you |
| Tx:12.15 | You can accept insanity because you | made it, but you cannot accept love because you did not. You would |
| Tx:12.15 | living oneness, and what is given you is not so dear as what you | made. You are more afraid of God than of the ego, and love cannot |
| Tx:12.16 | as long as they are hidden is the loving mind that thought it | made them in anger. And the pain in this mind is so apparent when it |
| Tx:12.20 | not ask this of a Father Who truly loved His Son. Therefore you | made of Him an unloving father, demanding of Him what only such a |
| Tx:12.20 | for he no longer understood his Father. He feared what he had | made, but still more did he fear his real Father, having attacked his |
| Tx:12.23 | you no inheritance except the dust out of which it thinks you were | made. As long as it is reasonably satisfied with you, as its |
| Tx:12.24 | you could experience. For hell and oblivion are ideas which you | made up, and you are bent on demonstrating their reality to establish |
| Tx:12.33 | Yet they have one thing in common—they are all insane. They are | made of sights which are not seen and sounds which are not heard. |
| Tx:12.34 | differ. Yet the figures that he sees were never real, for they are | made up only of his reactions to his brothers and do not include |
| Tx:12.34 | include their reactions to him. Therefore he does not see that he | made them and that they are not whole. For these figures have no |
| Tx:12.41 | although your eyes are closed. And it is here that what you see you | made. But let the darkness go, and all you made you will no longer |
| Tx:12.41 | that what you see you made. But let the darkness go, and all you | made you will no longer see, for sight of it depends upon denying |
| Tx:12.42 | Do not seek vision through your eyes, for you | made your way of seeing that you might see in darkness, and in this |
| Tx:12.43 | You have but two emotions, and one you | made and one was given you. Each is a way of seeing, and different |
| Tx:12.45 | is to them that you react now, you see but an image of him which you | made and cherish instead of him. In your questioning of illusions, |
| Tx:12.49 | it where it is, and it will dawn on eyes that see. Your past was | made in anger, and if you use it to attack the present, you will not |
| Tx:12.54 | keep it. You have established them as guides to peace, for you have | made it manifest in them. And seeing it, its beauty calls you home. |
| Tx:12.61 | began. The homes you built have never sheltered you. The roads you | made have led you nowhere, and no city that you built has withstood |
| Tx:12.61 | you built has withstood the crumbling assault of time. Nothing you | made but has the mark of death upon it. Hold it not dear, for it is |
| Tx:12.61 | for it is old and tired and ready to return to dust even as you | made it. This aching world has not the power to touch the living |
| Tx:12.62 | of pain that rise to it from every part of this strange world you | made but do not want. The only effort you need make to give this |
| Tx:12.62 | for what you did not make is willingness to learn the one you | made is false. |
| Tx:12.67 | of peace and then awaken to it. Your first exchange of what you | made for what you want is the exchange of nightmares for the happy |
| Tx:13.21 | avoid the person and the guilt. What strange relationships you have | made for this strange purpose! And you forgot that real relationships |
| Tx:13.36 | have His Son embattled, and so His Son's imagined “enemy,” which he | made, is totally unreal. You are but trying to escape a bitter war |
| Tx:13.36 | Heaven. Gladness and joy belong to God for your release, because you | made it not. Yet as you made not freedom, so you made not a war that |
| Tx:13.36 | belong to God for your release, because you made it not. Yet as you | made not freedom, so you made not a war that could endanger freedom. |
| Tx:13.36 | because you made it not. Yet as you made not freedom, so you | made not a war that could endanger freedom. Nothing destructive ever |
| Tx:13.46 | You will be released, and you will not remember anything you | made that was not created for you and by you in return. For how can |
| Tx:13.49 | had been done unto you? Indirect proof of truth is needed in a world | made of denial and without direction. You will perceive the need for |
| Tx:13.51 | Were your thoughts wholly of you, the thought system which you | made would be forever dark. The thoughts which the Mind of God's Son |
| Tx:13.51 | The thoughts he shares with God are beyond his belief, but those he | made are his beliefs. And it is these, and not the truth, that he has |
| Tx:13.51 | of the world is totally insane and leads to nothing. Yet in him who | made this insane logic, there is One Who knows it leads to nothing, |
| Tx:13.53 | foundation and dismisses it. But you, who cannot undo what you have | made [nor escape the heavy burden of its dullness that lies upon your |
| Tx:13.55 | of dust, a body or a war are one to you. For if you value one thing | made of nothing, you have believed that nothing can be precious and |
| Tx:13.56 | difficult for twisted minds. Consider all the distortions you have | made of nothing—all the strange forms and feelings and actions and |
| Tx:13.59 | brothers see it, and realizing that this light is not what you have | made, they see in you more than you see. They will be happy learners |
| Tx:13.62 | the key to the dark door which you believe is locked forever. You | made this door of nothing and behind it is nothing. The key is only |
| Tx:13.73 | Son can be separate or isolated in its effects. Every decision is | made for the whole Sonship, directed in and out and influencing a |
| Tx:13.78 | you know alone and will decide against your peace as surely as you | made the wrong decision in ever thinking that salvation lay in you |
| Tx:13.90 | Love. Fail not in your function of loving in a loveless place | made out of darkness and deceit, for thus are darkness and deceit |
| Tx:14.1 | this is! Do not endow Him with attributes you understand. You | made Him not, and anything you understand is not of Him. |
| Tx:14.3 | what you know. His memory is yours. If you remember what you have | made, you are remembering nothing. Remembrance of reality is in Him |
| Tx:14.10 | this curriculum, which has one aim however it is taught. Each effort | made on its behalf is offered for the single purpose of release from |
| Tx:14.17 | The sentinels of darkness watch over it carefully, and you who | made these guardians of illusion out of nothing are now afraid of |
| Tx:14.20 | You have interpreted the separation as a means which you have | made for breaking your communication with your Father. The Holy |
| Tx:14.20 | as a means of reestablishing what has not been broken but has been | made obscure. All things you made have use to Him for His most holy |
| Tx:14.20 | what has not been broken but has been made obscure. All things you | made have use to Him for His most holy purpose. He knows you are not |
| Tx:14.20 | else, would He separate from you. The power of decision, which you | made in place of the power of creation, He would teach you how to use |
| Tx:14.20 | of creation, He would teach you how to use on your behalf. You who | made it to crucify yourselves must learn of Him how to apply it to |
| Tx:14.21 | in dark and devious symbols do not understand the language you have | made. It has no meaning, for its purpose is not communication, but |
| Tx:14.21 | to make it meaningful if its interpreter is not its maker. You who | made it are but expressing conflict, from which the Holy Spirit would |
| Tx:14.28 | The Holy Spirit uses defenses on behalf of truth only because you | made them against it. His perception of them, according to His |
| Tx:14.29 | Defenses, like everything you | made, must be gently turned to your own good, translated by the Holy |
| Tx:14.38 | created holy. It merely brings unholiness to holiness, or what you | made to what you are. The bringing together of truth and illusion, of |
| Tx:14.38 | lay in the decision to be not as you were. Thus, truth was | made past, and the present was dedicated to illusion. And the past, |
| Tx:14.58 | it that you cannot use it. Everything you have taught yourselves has | made your power more and more obscure to you. You know not what it is |
| Tx:14.58 | and more obscure to you. You know not what it is nor where. You have | made a semblance of power and a show of strength so pitiful that it |
| Tx:14.67 | You cannot be your guide to miracles, for it is you who | made them necessary. And because you did, the means on which you can |
| Tx:14.70 | he did them for you. And because he did, they are yours. He has | made you free of what you made. You can deny Him, but you cannot call |
| Tx:14.70 | And because he did, they are yours. He has made you free of what you | made. You can deny Him, but you cannot call on Him in vain. He always |
| Tx:14.70 | Him, but you cannot call on Him in vain. He always gives what He has | made in place of you. He would establish His bright teaching so |
| Tx:15.8 | Spirit teaches thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the ego has | made of the present. The belief in hell is what prevents you from |
| Tx:15.22 | it. Everything in this world is little because it is a world | made out of littleness in the strange belief that littleness can |
| Tx:15.28 | that you can be content with littleness are the decisions you have | made about yourself. The power and the glory that lie in you from God |
| Tx:15.36 | in your own way and have it. Give over every plan that you have | made for your salvation in exchange for God's. His will content you, |
| Tx:15.48 | it is not perfect. In His function as Interpreter of what you have | made, the Holy Spirit uses special relationships, which you have |
| Tx:15.49 | Spirit knows no one is special. Yet He also perceives that you have | made special relationships, which He would purify and not let you |
| Tx:15.49 | purify and not let you destroy. However unholy the reason why you | made them may be, He can translate them into holiness by removing as |
| Tx:15.67 | of guilt must be recognized for what it is. For having been | made real to you, it is essential to look at it clearly, and by |
| Tx:15.69 | to find out if you are willing, first, to perceive what you have | made of them. |
| Tx:15.78 | part in it. In the protection of your wholeness, all are invited and | made welcome. And you understand that your completion is God's, Whose |
| Tx:15.84 | it is not understandable, and yet He understands it because you have | made it. In Him alone lies the awareness of what God cannot know and |
| Tx:15.95 | there is but one shift in perception that is necessary, for you | made but one mistake. It seems like many, but it is all the same. For |
| Tx:15.100 | in the attempt to avoid recognizing the one decision which must be | made. And yet it is the recognition of the decision just as it is |
| Tx:15.112 | by making it all the same. And let all your relationships be | made holy for you. This is our will. Amen. |
| Tx:16.12 | seem natural because what you have done to hurt your minds has | made them so unnatural that they do not remember what is natural to |
| Tx:16.13 | the first link in the awareness of the Sonship as one has been | made. When you have made this joining as the Holy Spirit bids you and |
| Tx:16.13 | in the awareness of the Sonship as one has been made. When you have | made this joining as the Holy Spirit bids you and have offered it to |
| Tx:16.18 | have preferred to place still greater faith in the disaster you have | made. Today let us resolve together to accept the joyful tidings that |
| Tx:16.19 | been successful. Is it not time you brought these facts together and | made sense of them? |
| Tx:16.41 | you can fail to remember it. The Holy Spirit is the bridge to Him, | made from your willingness to unite with Him and created by His joy |
| Tx:16.45 | the unnatural ones. For this world is the opposite of Heaven, being | made to be its opposite, and everything here takes a direction |
| Tx:16.50 | partners see this special self in each other, the ego sees “a union | made in Heaven.” For neither one will recognize that he has asked for |
| Tx:16.52 | it offers the specialness which you demand. And hating it, you have | made it little and unworthy because you are afraid of it. |
| Tx:16.53 | upon it. You think it safer to endow the little self which you have | made with power you wrested from truth, triumphing over it and |
| Tx:16.54 | its evident impossibility? For if it were possible, you would have | made yourself helpless. God is not angry. He merely could not let |
| Tx:16.58 | become when it is perceived as only what it is. For only fantasies | made confusion in choosing possible, and they are totally unreal. |
| Tx:16.62 | For God is left without and nothing taken in. If one such union were | made in perfect faith, the universe would enter into it. Yet the |
| Tx:16.67 | ego offered you and look not back with longing on the travesty it | made of your relationships. Now no one need suffer, for you have come |
| Tx:16.70 | choosing a special partner without the past? Every such choice is | made because of something “evil” in the past to which you cling and |
| Tx:17.7 | like unto this nor hold so dear. Nothing that you remember that | made your heart seem to sing with joy has ever brought you even a |
| Tx:17.9 | you are free to see. Yet what you see is only what you have | made, with the blessing of your forgiveness on it. And with this |
| Tx:17.10 | change; no shifts nor shadings, no differences, no variations which | made perception possible will occur. The perception of the real world |
| Tx:17.10 | last step swiftly when you have reached the real world and have been | made ready for Him. |
| Tx:17.11 | will undertake with you the careful searching of the mind that | made this world and uncover to you the seeming reasons for your |
| Tx:17.11 | is suddenly released to loveliness. Not even what the Son of God | made in insanity could be without a hidden spark of beauty which |
| Tx:17.18 | on them are those which have been dreamed of but have not been | made at all. Where no reality has entered, there is nothing to |
| Tx:17.20 | been forgotten, what remains is eternal. And the transformed past is | made like the present. No longer does the past conflict with now. |
| Tx:17.20 | it must be undone. For separation must be corrected where it was | made. The ego seeks to “resolve” its problems, not at their source, |
| Tx:17.20 | “resolve” its problems, not at their source, but where they were not | made. And thus it seeks to guarantee there will be no solution. |
| Tx:17.23 | Holy Spirit sees because He knows that only this is true. You have | made the relationship unreal and therefore unholy by seeing it where |
| Tx:17.23 | about it for you. But first be sure you fully realize what you have | made the past to represent and why. |
| Tx:17.28 | make a substitute for it. Every special relationship which you have | made is a substitute for God's Will and glorifies yours instead of |
| Tx:17.29 | You have | made very real relationships even in this world which you do not |
| Tx:17.34 | like diamonds and gleam in the dim light in which the offering is | made. |
| Tx:17.37 | on the picture, you will realize that it was only the frame that | made you think it was a picture. Without the frame, the picture is |
| Tx:17.53 | He could not have entered otherwise. Although you may have | made many mistakes since then, you have also made enormous efforts to |
| Tx:17.53 | Although you may have made many mistakes since then, you have also | made enormous efforts to help Him do His work. And He has not been |
| Tx:17.60 | view. The situation now has meaning, but only because the goal has | made it meaningful. |
| Tx:17.66 | ask that it be restored where it was lost and seek not to have it | made up to you elsewhere as if you had been unjustly deprived of it. |
| Tx:17.72 | in which you enter or will ever enter. And every situation was thus | made free of the past, which would have made it purposeless. |
| Tx:17.72 | And every situation was thus made free of the past, which would have | made it purposeless. |
| Tx:18.4 | You who believe that God is fear | made but one substitution. It has taken many forms because it was the |
| Tx:18.4 | to illusion, infinity to time, and life to death, was all you ever | made. Your whole world rests upon it. Everything you see reflects it, |
| Tx:18.4 | see reflects it, and every special relationship which you have ever | made is part of it. |
| Tx:18.6 | and take no part in all the mad projection by which this world was | made. Call it not sin but madness, for such it was, and so it still |
| Tx:18.9 | faith in each other, to help Him show you that no substitute you | made for Heaven can keep you from it. In you there is no separation, |
| Tx:18.17 | reality is fearful, not what you would do to it. And thus is guilt | made real. |
| Tx:18.18 | that seems to be outside. You do not respond to it as though you | made it, nor do you realize that the emotions which the dream |
| Tx:18.22 | are so used to choosing between dreams you do not see that you have | made, at last, the choice between the truth and all illusions. |
| Tx:18.24 | every fantasy which seemed to bring a light into the darkness but | made the darkness deeper. Your goal was darkness in which no ray of |
| Tx:18.26 | realize that you are not afraid of love, but only of what you have | made of it. You are advancing to love's meaning and away from all |
| Tx:18.30 | to darkness from the holy instant to which you brought it. We are | made whole in our desire to make whole. Let not time worry you, for |
| Tx:18.35 | Would you first make a miracle yourself and then expect one to be | made for you? |
| Tx:18.38 | and you will merely take away the little that is asked. Remember you | made guilt and that your plan for the escape from guilt has been to |
| Tx:18.52 | from what the Holy Spirit establishes it to be. The body was not | made by love. Yet love does not condemn it and can use it lovingly, |
| Tx:18.52 | it and can use it lovingly, respecting what the Son of God has | made and using it to save him from illusions. |
| Tx:18.54 | make it a liability where it could be an asset. For fantasies have | made your body your “enemy,” weak, vulnerable, and treacherous, |
| Tx:18.55 | This is the host of God that you have | made. And neither God nor His most holy Son can enter an abode which |
| Tx:18.55 | sown the seeds of vengeance, violence, and death. This thing you | made to serve your guilt stands between you and other minds. The |
| Tx:18.55 | of reaching out as being reached. You hate this prison you have | made and would destroy it. But you would not escape from it, leaving |
| Tx:18.56 | property of mind. But the communication is internal. [It is not | made up of different parts which reach each other.] Mind reaches to |
| Tx:18.64 | You have | made much progress and are really trying to make still more, but |
| Tx:18.68 | on using means which have served others well, neglecting what was | made for you. Save time for me by only this one preparation and |
| Tx:18.71 | limit on love. The belief in limited love was its origin, and it was | made to limit the unlimited. Think not that this is merely |
| Tx:18.71 | the unlimited. Think not that this is merely allegorical, for it was | made to limit you. Can you who see yourselves within a body know |
| Tx:18.86 | Its vision is distorted, and the messages it transmits to you who | made it to limit your awareness are little and limited and so |
| Tx:18.86 | and so fragmented they are meaningless. From the world of bodies, | made by insanity, insane messages seem to be returned to the mind |
| Tx:18.86 | by insanity, insane messages seem to be returned to the mind which | made it. And these messages bear witness to this world, pronouncing |
| Tx:18.88 | all the insane attacks, the fury, vengeance, and betrayal that were | made to keep the guilt in place, so that the world could rise from it |
| Tx:18.88 | is veiled by its heavy coverings and kept apart from what was | made to keep it hidden. The body cannot see this, for the body arose |
| Tx:19.4 | stand between you. And the body will seem to be sick, for you have | made of it an “enemy” of healing and the opposite of truth. |
| Tx:19.14 | There will you see the miracle of your relationship as it was | made again through faith. And there it is that you will realize that |
| Tx:19.17 | makes salvation possible. For error can be corrected, and the wrong | made right. But sin, were it possible, would be irreversible. The |
| Tx:19.22 | It can indeed be said the ego | made its world on sin. Only in such a world could everything be |
| Tx:19.22 | from an idea of God to an ideal the ego wants; a world it rules, | made up of bodies, mindless and capable of complete corruption and |
| Tx:19.23 | that sin is real—the natural expression of what the Son of God has | made himself to be and what he is. To the ego, this is no mistake. |
| Tx:19.51 | in hungry search of guilt, for they are kept cold and starving and | made very vicious by their master, who allows them to feast only upon |
| Tx:19.55 | ago I promised and promise still. For in your new relationship am I | made welcome. And where I am made welcome, there I am. |
| Tx:19.55 | For in your new relationship am I made welcome. And where I am | made welcome, there I am. |
| Tx:19.56 | I am | made welcome in the state of grace, which means you have at last |
| Tx:19.59 | is valuable for what it offers. For here is the attraction of guilt | made manifest in the body and seen in it. |
| Tx:19.73 | Why should the body be anything to you? Certainly what it is | made of is not precious. And just as certainly, it has no feeling. It |
| Tx:19.77 | who are attracted to it and seek it out. And so it is with death. | Made by the ego, its dark shadow falls across all living things |
| Tx:19.86 | love, preserved from every thought that would attack it and quietly | made ready to fulfill the mighty task for which it was given you. |
| Tx:19.92 | to death and to its sovereignty is but the solemn vow, the promise | made in secret to the ego never to lift this veil, not to approach it |
| Tx:19.92 | it nor even to suspect that it is there. This is the secret bargain | made with the ego to keep what lies beyond the veil forever blotted |
| Tx:20.5 | Look upon all the trinkets | made to hang upon the body or to cover it or for its use. See all the |
| Tx:20.5 | the body or to cover it or for its use. See all the useless things | made for its eyes to see. Think on the many offerings made for its |
| Tx:20.5 | useless things made for its eyes to see. Think on the many offerings | made for its pleasure and remember all these were made to make seem |
| Tx:20.5 | the many offerings made for its pleasure and remember all these were | made to make seem lovely what you hate. Would you employ this hated |
| Tx:20.6 | Gifts are not | made through bodies if they be truly given and received. For bodies |
| Tx:20.16 | a shift in perception or a belief that what was so before has been | made different. Every adjustment is therefore a distortion and calls |
| Tx:20.18 | any difference between yourself and it in your perception, which | made them both. |
| Tx:20.19 | question yet remains and needs an answer. Do you like what you have | made—a world of murder and attack through which you thread your |
| Tx:20.19 | wait a little longer before it overtakes you and you disappear? You | made this up. It is a picture of what you think you are, of how you |
| Tx:20.19 | the fearful thoughts of those who would adjust themselves to a world | made fearful by their adjustments. And they look out in sorrow from |
| Tx:20.20 | it real. Such is the world you see—a judgment on yourself and | made by you. This sickly picture of yourself is carefully preserved |
| Tx:20.20 | it outside you, you should indeed be fearful. Yet it was you who | made it merciless, and now if mercilessness seems to look back at |
| Tx:20.22 | The world believes in sin, but the belief that | made it as you see it is not outside you. Seek not to make the Son of |
| Tx:20.22 | the Holy Spirit offered and you accepted. For there the stranger is | made homeless and you are welcome. |
| Tx:20.25 | remember not the light, do not leap up in joy the instant they are | made free. It takes a while for them to understand what freedom is. |
| Tx:20.26 | us become impossible. You who were prisoners in separation are now | made free in Paradise. And here would I unite with you, my friends, |
| Tx:20.30 | Your insane laws were | made to guarantee that you would make mistakes and give them power |
| Tx:20.38 | You give to one another for everyone, and in your gift is everyone | made glad. Forget not Who has given you the gifts you give, and |
| Tx:20.45 | is one of perfect union and unbroken continuity. The one he | made is partial, self-centered, broken into fragments, and full of |
| Tx:20.45 | Father is wholly self-encompassing and self-extending. The one he | made is wholly self-destructive and self-limiting. |
| Tx:20.50 | home of the idolater and of love's condemnation. For here is love | made fearful and hope abandoned. Even the idols that are worshiped |
| Tx:20.52 | with God unholy seemed to be possible, all your relationships were | made meaningless. In that unholy instant, time was born and bodies |
| Tx:20.52 | made meaningless. In that unholy instant, time was born and bodies | made to house the mad idea and give it the illusion of reality. And |
| Tx:20.55 | The body is the ego's idol; the belief in sin | made flesh and then projected outward. This produces what seems to be |
| Tx:20.66 | did not make, for it was given him to see, as was the vision which | made his seeing possible. |
| Tx:20.67 | saved for you. Vision would not be necessary had judgment not been | made. Desire now its whole undoing, and it is done for you. |
| Tx:20.68 | given you, so will be its effects. And as its holy purpose was not | made by you, the means by which its happy end is yours is also not of |
| Tx:20.69 | the Son of God in your relationship, nor see in him what you have | made of him. |
| Tx:20.73 | this world is an hallucination? What if you really understood you | made it up? What if you realized that those who seem to walk about in |
| Tx:20.75 | true that nothing is without. Yet upon nothing are all projections | made. For it is the projection which gives the “nothing” all the |
| Tx:20.76 | it is not reality which frightens you and that the errors which you | made can be corrected. |
| Tx:21.2 | these two decisions. And you will see the witness to the choice you | made and learn from this to recognize which one you chose. [The world |
| Tx:21.12 | their Creator gives praise to them as well. The blindness which they | made will not withstand the memory of this song. And they will look |
| Tx:21.26 | It is as needful that you recognize you | made the world you see as that you recognize that you did not create |
| Tx:21.26 | Creator has any influence over you. And if you think what you have | made can tell you what you see and feel and place your faith in its |
| Tx:21.26 | to do so, you are denying your Creator and believing that you | made yourself. For if you think the world you made has power to make |
| Tx:21.26 | and believing that you made yourself. For if you think the world you | made has power to make you what it wills, you are confusing Son and |
| Tx:21.27 | and cannot serve to justify the madness. Your brother thinks he | made the world with you. Thus he denies creation. With you, he thinks |
| Tx:21.27 | with you. Thus he denies creation. With you, he thinks the world he | made, made him. Thus he denies he made it. |
| Tx:21.27 | you. Thus he denies creation. With you, he thinks the world he made, | made him. Thus he denies he made it. |
| Tx:21.27 | With you, he thinks the world he made, made him. Thus he denies he | made it. |
| Tx:21.28 | you, keeping you from each other and separate from your Father, you | made in secret, and the instant of release has come to you. All its |
| Tx:21.33 | his illusions about himself. For faith, perception, and belief you | made as means for losing certainty and finding sin. This mad |
| Tx:21.33 | direction was your choice, and by your faith in what you chose, you | made what you desired. |
| Tx:21.34 | He sees the means you use but not the purpose for which you | made them. He would not take them from you, for He sees their value |
| Tx:21.34 | for He sees their value as a means for what He wills for you. You | made perception that you might choose among your brothers and seek |
| Tx:21.40 | The body was | made to be a sacrifice to sin, and in the darkness so it still is |
| Tx:21.40 | produced them and can use them still to save itself from what it | made. |
| Tx:21.46 | of the sane. You have perceived the ego's madness and not been | made afraid because you did not choose to share in it. At times it |
| Tx:21.48 | matters it to you how loudly it is proclaimed? The senseless is not | made meaningful by repetition and by clamor. The quiet way is open. |
| Tx:21.50 | and far more powerful than you. And you will think the world you | made directs your destiny. For this will be your faith. But never |
| Tx:21.58 | fail to lead to changed perception. And in this change is room | made way for vision. Vision extends beyond itself, as does the |
| Tx:21.74 | sin would dare believe he has no enemy? Could he admit that no one | made him powerless? Reason would surely bid him seek no longer what |
| Tx:21.81 | other three except in time. The others are decisions which can be | made and then unmade and made again. But truth is constant and |
| Tx:21.81 | time. The others are decisions which can be made and then unmade and | made again. But truth is constant and implies a state where |
| Tx:21.82 | question “yes,” you add sincerity to the decisions you have already | made to all the rest. For only then have you renounced the option to |
| Tx:21.83 | be asked so often, if they had? Until the last decision has been | made, the answer is both “yes” and “no.” For you have answered “yes” |
| Tx:21.88 | Yet he will ask because desire is a request, an asking for, and | made by one whom God Himself will never fail to answer. God has |
| Tx:21.89 | you would answer the final question. Your answer to the others has | made it possible to help you be but partially insane. And yet it is |
| Tx:22.1 | and one the other cannot understand. Brothers, it is the same, | made by the same, and forgiven for its maker in the same way. |
| Tx:22.7 | that you are something else, this “something else” which you have | made to be yourself became your sight. Yet it must be the “something |
| Tx:22.8 | attraction of guilt is only fear. Here is the one emotion that you | made, whatever it may seem to be. This is the emotion of secrecy, of |
| Tx:22.8 | emotion that keeps you blind, dependent on the self you think you | made to lead you through the world it made for you. |
| Tx:22.8 | on the self you think you made to lead you through the world it | made for you. |
| Tx:22.9 | to you. What needs interpretation must be alien. Nor will it ever be | made understandable by an interpreter you cannot understand. |
| Tx:22.14 | Here is the first direct perception that you have | made. You made it through awareness older than perception and yet |
| Tx:22.14 | Here is the first direct perception that you have made. You | made it through awareness older than perception and yet reborn in |
| Tx:22.21 | in this course, for here the separation of you and the ego must be | made complete. For if you have the means to let the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:22.21 | done. You know what your Creator wills is possible, but what you | made believes it is not so. Now must you choose between yourself and |
| Tx:22.21 | There is no point in trying to avoid this one decision. It must be | made. Faith and belief can fall to either side, but reason tells you |
| Tx:22.23 | your understanding, but when must be your choice. For time you | made, and time you can command. You are no more a slave to time than |
| Tx:22.23 | can command. You are no more a slave to time than to the world you | made. |
| Tx:22.24 | Let us look closer at the whole illusion that what you | made has power to enslave its maker. This is the same belief that |
| Tx:22.24 | and oppose His Will, would it be possible that the self he | made and all it made should be his master. |
| Tx:22.24 | His Will, would it be possible that the self he made and all it | made should be his master. |
| Tx:22.25 | the decision that it must be healed and not with fear. Nothing you | made has any power over you unless you still would be apart from your |
| Tx:22.25 | His Son could be His enemy does it seem possible that what you | made is yours. You would condemn His joy to misery and make Him |
| Tx:22.25 | His joy to misery and make Him different. And all the misery you | made has been your own. Are you not glad to learn it is not true? Is |
| Tx:22.25 | Is it not welcome news to hear not one of the illusions that you | made replaced the truth? |
| Tx:22.32 | here is its own stability, its heavy anchor in the shifting world it | made—the rock on which its church is built and where its worshipers |
| Tx:22.33 | The body's eyes see only form. They cannot see beyond what they were | made to see. And they were made to look on error and not see past it. |
| Tx:22.33 | They cannot see beyond what they were made to see. And they were | made to look on error and not see past it. Theirs is indeed a strange |
| Tx:22.33 | it were a solid wall see truly? It is held back by form, having been | made to guarantee that nothing else but form will be perceived. |
| Tx:22.34 | These eyes, | made not to see, will never see. For the idea they represent left not |
| Tx:22.39 | you can go back and make the other choice. This is not so. A choice | made with the power of Heaven to uphold it cannot be undone. Your way |
| Tx:22.52 | as He is sure of His Creator's love. He knows this mad decision was | made by one as dear to His Creator as love is to itself. |
| Tx:23.12 | Both are not true. And so it matters not what form they take. What | made them is insane, and they remain part of what made them. Madness |
| Tx:23.12 | they take. What made them is insane, and they remain part of what | made them. Madness holds out no menace to reality and has no |
| Tx:23.15 | the more real, and vanquisher of the illusion that was less real, | made an illusion by defeat. Thus, conflict is the choice between |
| Tx:23.19 | and to attack the truth. Here are the laws that rule the world you | made. And yet they govern nothing and need not be broken; merely |
| Tx:23.23 | defeat. And fear of God and of each other now appears as sensible, | made real by what the Son of God has done both to himself and his |
| Tx:23.25 | be at war with Him and justified in its attack. And now is conflict | made inevitable and beyond the help of God. And now salvation must |
| Tx:23.28 | All of the mechanisms of madness are seen emerging here: the “enemy,” | made strong by keeping hidden the valuable inheritance which should |
| Tx:23.31 | Never is your possession | made complete. And never will your brother cease his attack on you |
| Tx:23.31 | solid. And it is here you look for meaning. These are the laws you | made for your salvation. They hold in place the substitute for Heaven |
| Tx:23.31 | for Heaven which you prefer. This is their purpose; they were | made for this. There is no point in asking what they mean. That is |
| Tx:24.4 | outcomes have been reached, and meaningless decisions have been | made and kept hidden to become beliefs, now given power to direct all |
| Tx:24.8 | have meaning where the goal is triumph? And what decision can be | made for this that will not hurt you? Your brother is your friend |
| Tx:24.10 | your Father does not share with you. For your relationship has been | made clean of special goals. And would you now defeat the goal of |
| Tx:24.14 | Specialness is the idea of sin | made real. Sin is impossible even to imagine without this base. For |
| Tx:24.14 | “savior,” the “creator” who creates unlike the Father and which | made His Son like to itself and not like unto Him. His “special” sons |
| Tx:24.17 | as like to him as he is to his Father. And all the world he | made and all his specialness and all the sins he held in its defense |
| Tx:24.19 | only friend to what is real in you. Not one attack you thought you | made on him has taken from him the gift that God would have him give |
| Tx:24.24 | The hope of specialness makes it seem possible God | made the body as the prison-house which keeps His Son from Him. For |
| Tx:24.27 | Whatever form of specialness you cherish, you have | made sin. Inviolate it stands, strongly defended with all your puny |
| Tx:24.31 | Forgive the Holy One the specialness He could not give and which you | made instead. |
| Tx:24.32 | not make their dream reality. Curse God and die, but not by Him Who | made not death, but only in the dream. Open your eyes a little; see |
| Tx:24.41 | interchanged, for here the maker of the dream believes that what he | made is happening to him. He does not realize he picked a thread from |
| Tx:24.53 | release you both, for holiness is quite impartial, with one judgment | made for all it looks upon. And that is made, not of itself, but |
| Tx:24.53 | impartial, with one judgment made for all it looks upon. And that is | made, not of itself, but through the Voice that speaks for God in |
| Tx:24.61 | your brother's body than his holiness, be sure you understand what | made this judgment. Here is the voice of specialness heard clearly, |
| Tx:24.62 | of God, not snatch it from Him. What is this son that you have | made to be your strength? What is this child of earth on whom such |
| Tx:24.66 | what He created safe. You cannot touch it with the false ideas you | made because it was created not by you. Let not your foolish fancies |
| Tx:24.69 | ready. Here are the means and purpose separate because they were so | made and so perceived. And therefore do we deal with them as if they |
| Tx:24.71 | Thus is the body | made a theory of yourself with no provisions made for evidence beyond |
| Tx:24.71 | Thus is the body made a theory of yourself with no provisions | made for evidence beyond itself and no escape within its sight. Its |
| Tx:24.71 | and shared His purpose, so does the body testify to the idea that | made it and speak for its reality and truth. |
| Tx:24.72 | And thus are two sons | made, and both appear to walk this earth without a meeting-place and |
| Tx:25.1 | is within a frame of holiness whose only purpose is that He may be | made manifest to those who know Him not, that He may call to them to |
| Tx:25.20 | creation as the perfect Father that He is. And so His joy is | made complete when any part of Him joins in His praise, to share His |
| Tx:25.22 | of you. His Will is brought together as you join in will that you be | made complete by offering completion to your brother. See not in him |
| Tx:25.25 | one law because it has but one Creator. But this world has two who | made it, and they do not see it as the same. To each it has a |
| Tx:25.26 | Son, even in error. There is another purpose in the world that error | made because it has another Maker Who can reconcile its goal with His |
| Tx:25.28 | you to see the workings of the Helper given you to see the world He | made, instead of yours. |
| Tx:25.29 | are the same. And when you see them as the same, your choice is | made. For it is seeing them as one that brings release from the |
| Tx:25.30 | forgiven, sin's perception must have been wrong. And thus is change | made possible. The Holy Spirit too sees what He sees as far beyond |
| Tx:25.38 | must you not be fearful of yourself? For you have hurt yourself and | made your Self your “enemy.” And now you must believe you are not you |
| Tx:25.39 | plaintive call, unchanged in content in whatever form the call is | made, that you unite with him and join with him in innocence and |
| Tx:25.42 | from the pain of hell. But in the love he shows himself is God | made free to let His Will be done. In each of you, you see the |
| Tx:25.46 | Holy Spirit's kind perception of specialness—His use of what you | made, to heal instead of harm. To each He gives a special function in |
| Tx:25.48 | He has a special part in time, for so he chose, and choosing it, he | made it for himself. His wish was not denied but changed in form to |
| Tx:25.48 | means for his salvation from the very instant that the choice was | made. His special sin was made his special grace. His special hate |
| Tx:25.48 | from the very instant that the choice was made. His special sin was | made his special grace. His special hate became his special love. |
| Tx:25.49 | special value here. You wanted it, and it is given you. All that you | made can serve salvation easily and well. The Son of God can make no |
| Tx:25.56 | those who are insane requires special choice. Nor can this choice be | made by the insane, whose problem is their choices are not free and |
| Tx:25.56 | made by the insane, whose problem is their choices are not free and | made with reason in the light of sense. |
| Tx:25.59 | they are all the same, without the differences which would have | made a hell of Heaven and a heaven of hell, had such insanity been |
| Tx:25.61 | your special function has a part. For here your special function is | made whole because it shares the function of the whole. |
| Tx:25.66 | form it takes. Justice demands no sacrifice, for any sacrifice is | made that sin may be preserved and kept. It is a payment offered for |
| Tx:25.72 | brings joy to Him as well as you. He knows that Heaven is richer | made by each one you accept. And God rejoices as His Son receives |
| Tx:25.80 | loss to anyone has not resolved the problem but has added to it and | made it greater, harder to resolve, and more unfair. It is impossible |
| Tx:26.4 | The body is a loss and can be | made to sacrifice. And while you see your brother as a body, apart |
| Tx:26.9 | function but to release the holy Son of God from the imprisonment he | made to keep himself from justice? Could your function be a task |
| Tx:26.14 | to solve or judge that it is one which has no resolution, you have | made it great and past the hope of healing. You deny the miracle of |
| Tx:26.19 | borderland is just beyond the gate of Heaven. Here is every thought | made pure and wholly simple. Here is sin denied and everything that |
| Tx:26.20 | imply a limited reality, a partial truth, a segment of the universe | made true. This is because knowledge makes no attack upon perception. |
| Tx:26.20 | they are temporary, out of place, and every choice has been already | made. |
| Tx:26.21 | lies the difference between the worlds. In this one, choice is | made impossible. In the real world is choosing simplified. |
| Tx:26.22 | what is different, leaving room to make the only choice which can be | made. |
| Tx:26.23 | where no choice really is. The real world is the area of choice | made real, not in the outcome but in the perception of alternatives |
| Tx:26.27 | For here is what was lost restored to them and all their radiance | made whole again. |
| Tx:26.30 | remains and choice is meaningful. For never will another road be | made except the way to Heaven. You but choose whether to go toward |
| Tx:26.32 | God gave His Teacher to replace the one you | made, not to conflict with it. And what He would replace has been |
| Tx:26.32 | and everything exactly as it was before the way to nothingness was | made. The tiny tick of time in which the first mistake was made, and |
| Tx:26.32 | was made. The tiny tick of time in which the first mistake was | made, and all of them within that one mistake, held also the |
| Tx:26.35 | in sin, is that one instant still called back, as if it could be | made again in time. You keep an ancient memory before your eyes. And |
| Tx:26.37 | which points to it as real is but a wish that what is gone could be | made real again and seen as here and now in place of what is really |
| Tx:26.37 | instant kept, when Heaven seemed to disappear and God was feared and | made a symbol of your hate? |
| Tx:26.40 | to die instead of live. And will you not forgive him now because he | made an error in the past that God remembers not and is not there? |
| Tx:26.44 | to hurt, but just because you have denied it is but an illusion and | made it real. And it is real to you. It is not nothing and through |
| Tx:26.48 | see, because perception is a wish fulfilled. Perception changes, | made to take the place of changeless knowledge. Yet is truth |
| Tx:26.52 | correction to impossibility. Yet the belief that it is real has | made some errors seem forever past the hope of healing and the |
| Tx:26.59 | arose. Here is the firm conviction that ideas can leave their source | made real and meaningful. And from this error does the world of sin |
| Tx:26.61 | of sacrifice. If loss in any form is possible, then is God's Son | made incomplete and not himself. [Nor will he know himself nor |
| Tx:26.61 | nor recognize his will.] He has forsworn his Father and himself and | made them both his enemies in hate. |
| Tx:26.62 | Illusions serve the purpose they were | made to serve. And from their purpose, they derive whatever meaning |
| Tx:26.62 | meaning that they seem to have. God gave to all illusions that were | made another purpose that would justify a miracle, whatever form they |
| Tx:26.70 | that the risk of loss is great between the time its purpose is | made yours and its effects will come to you. In this form is the |
| Tx:26.80 | lights grow ever brighter as each one comes home. The incomplete is | made complete again, and Heaven's joy has been increased because what |
| Tx:26.84 | with Him, never separate. And They give thanks that They are welcome | made at last. Where stood a cross stands now the risen Christ, and |
| Tx:27.2 | In your release from sacrifice is his | made manifest and shown to be his own. But every pain you suffer do |
| Tx:27.2 | a living symbol of his guilt, for you will not escape the death you | made for him. But in his innocence, you find your own. |
| Tx:27.5 | to the guilt in him which you perceived and loved. Now in the hands | made gentle by His touch, the Holy Spirit lays a picture of a |
| Tx:27.10 | now it witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being open and the mind | made free again to choose what it is for. Now is it not condemned, |
| Tx:27.12 | know its purpose. You but gave illusions of a purpose to a thing you | made to hide your function from yourself. This thing without a |
| Tx:27.19 | your brother with no blood upon his hands nor guilt upon his heart | made heavy with the proof of sin. And what you wish is given you to |
| Tx:27.27 | divided and distinct for each of you preserves your Self from being | made aware of any function other than Its own. And thus is healing |
| Tx:27.32 | the truth to enter and to make itself at home. No preparation can be | made that would enhance the invitation's real appeal. For what you |
| Tx:27.39 | And which can bring escape from all the pain of which this world is | made?” Whatever form the question takes, its purpose is the same. It |
| Tx:27.43 | can bring the question to the answer and receive the answer that was | made for you. |
| Tx:27.50 | the differences you see. The total transfer of your learning is not | made by you. But that it has been made in spite of all the |
| Tx:27.50 | transfer of your learning is not made by you. But that it has been | made in spite of all the differences you see convinces you that they |
| Tx:27.51 | one of them has been escaped. It cannot be their differences which | made this possible, for learning does not jump from situations to |
| Tx:27.60 | is need that you be healed, because the suffering of the world has | made it deaf to its salvation and deliverance. |
| Tx:27.63 | but has been obscured by heavy clouds of complication which were | made to keep the problem unresolved? Without the clouds, the problem |
| Tx:27.64 | The “reasoning” by which the world is | made, on which it rests, by which it is maintained, is simply this: |
| Tx:27.65 | And thus he suffers from the wounds a knife he does not hold has | made upon himself. This is the purpose of the world he sees. And |
| Tx:27.70 | between exactly as they are and where they are. What choices can be | made between two states, but one of which is clearly recognized? Who |
| Tx:27.73 | Nothing more fearful than an idle dream has terrified God's Son and | made him think that he has lost his innocence, denied his Father, and |
| Tx:27.73 | him think that he has lost his innocence, denied his Father, and | made war upon himself. So fearful is the dream, so seeming real, he |
| Tx:27.77 | central place in every dream, which tells the story of how it was | made by other bodies, born into the world outside the body, lives a |
| Tx:27.83 | A timelessness in which is time | made real; a part of God which can attack itself; a separate brother |
| Tx:28.1 | immediate effects. This world was over long ago. The thoughts that | made it are no longer in the mind that thought of them and loved them |
| Tx:28.2 | now and still were there to see. Memory, like perception, is a skill | made up by you to take the place of what God gave in your creation. |
| Tx:28.2 | place of what God gave in your creation. And like all the things you | made, it can be used to serve another purpose and to be the means for |
| Tx:28.3 | Him, without the content and the purposes for which they have been | made. They are but skills without an application. They await their |
| Tx:28.4 | If you would have it there, then there it is. But only your desire | made the link, and only you have held it to a part of time where |
| Tx:28.5 | all the body's past is hidden there. All of the strange associations | made to keep the past alive, the present dead, are stored within it, |
| Tx:28.6 | the present, which is but a consequence in which no change can be | made possible because its cause has gone. Yet change must have a |
| Tx:28.6 | a cause that will endure or else it will not last. No change can be | made in the present if its cause is past. Only the past is held in |
| Tx:28.7 | Let not the cause that you would give them now be what it was which | made them what they were or seemed to be. Be glad that it is gone, |
| Tx:28.13 | is now remembered is not fear, but rather is the cause that fear was | made to render unremembered and undone. The stillness speaks in |
| Tx:28.14 | Cause and Its benign effects. Now does he understand what he has | made is causeless, making no effects at all. He has done nothing. And |
| Tx:28.16 | and yet without effects there is no cause. The cause a cause is | made by its effects; the Father is a father by His Son. Effects do |
| Tx:28.20 | your own. It does not ask you make another—only that you see you | made the one you would exchange for this. This world is causeless, as |
| Tx:28.22 | with illusions. No one is afraid of them when he perceives he | made them up. The fear was held in place because he did not see that |
| Tx:28.23 | them since He was no longer their Creator. In the dream, the dreamer | made himself, but what he made has turned against him, taking on the |
| Tx:28.23 | their Creator. In the dream, the dreamer made himself, but what he | made has turned against him, taking on the role of its creator as the |
| Tx:28.26 | The miracle returns the cause of fear to you who | made it. But it also shows that, having no effects, it is not cause |
| Tx:28.26 | Thus is the body healed by miracles because they show the mind | made sickness and employed the body to be victim or effect of what it |
| Tx:28.26 | sickness and employed the body to be victim or effect of what it | made. Yet half the lesson will not teach the whole. The miracle is |
| Tx:28.28 | Here is where we must begin. And having started, will the way be | made serene and simple in the rising up to waking and the ending of |
| Tx:28.31 | purpose of the gap is all the cause that sickness has. For it was | made to keep you separated in a body which you see as if it were the |
| Tx:28.32 | unsubstantial as the empty place between the ripples that a ship has | made in passing by. And covered just as fast, as water rushes in to |
| Tx:28.39 | persist, but as a mind which brother is to you. He is not brother | made by what he dreams, nor is his body, “hero” of the dream, your |
| Tx:28.42 | dreams will [disappear before his eyes], and he will understand what | made the dream. |
| Tx:28.48 | if you forgive the dreamer and perceive that he is not the dream he | made. And so he cannot be a part of yours, from which you both are |
| Tx:28.50 | safety lies and where your Self is safely hidden by what you have | made. Here is a world established that is sick, and this the world |
| Tx:28.50 | Here are the sounds it hears—the voices which its ears were | made to hear. Yet sights and sounds the body can perceive are |
| Tx:28.51 | eyes behold a dream, your ears bear witness to illusion. They were | made to look upon a world that is not there, to hear the voices that |
| Tx:28.52 | because it shares the function all creation shares. It is not | made of little bits of glass, a piece of wood, a thread or two |
| Tx:28.54 | gap is seen, and yet it is not here. It has not judged itself nor | made itself to be what it is not. It does not seek to make of pain a |
| Tx:28.55 | it does not hate. It can be used for hate, but it cannot be hateful | made thereby. |
| Tx:28.56 | And then you hate it, not for what it is, but for the uses you have | made of it. You shrink from what it sees and what it hears and hate |
| Tx:28.56 | your hatred for the limitations which it brings to you. Yet you have | made of it a symbol for the limitations which you want your mind to |
| Tx:28.57 | it would your self be lost. This is the secret vow which you have | made with every brother who would walk apart. This is the secret oath |
| Tx:28.58 | so that it will suffer pain. It is the obvious effect of what was | made in secret, in agreement with another's secret wish to be apart |
| Tx:28.59 | promise that you make with him because it is the one which he has | made to God, as God has made to him. God keeps His promises; His Son |
| Tx:28.59 | with him because it is the one which he has made to God, as God has | made to him. God keeps His promises; His Son keeps his. In his |
| Tx:28.59 | promises he shares. And what he substitutes is not his will, who has | made promise of himself to God. |
| Tx:28.62 | a straw and count on it as shelter from the wind? The body can be | made a home like this because it lacks foundation in the truth. And |
| Tx:28.63 | miracles are based upon this choice and given you the instant it is | made. No forms of sickness are immune because the choice cannot be |
| Tx:28.63 | made. No forms of sickness are immune because the choice cannot be | made in terms of form. The choice of sickness seems to be a form, yet |
| Tx:28.65 | What is the sense in seeking to be safe in what was | made for danger and for fear? Why burden it with further locks and |
| Tx:28.66 | and everything his Father promised him. No secret promise you have | made instead has shaken the Foundation of his home. The winds will |
| Tx:28.66 | liberate God's Son unto his home. And with this holy purpose is it | made a home of holiness a little while because it shares your |
| Tx:29.3 | Sometimes a friend, perhaps, provided that your separate interests | made your friendship possible a little while. But not without a gap |
| Tx:29.3 | scope and carefully restricted in amount, became the treaty you had | made with him. You shared a qualified entente in which a clause of |
| Tx:29.4 | be dividing off your separate minds. It is the symbol of a promise | made to meet when you prefer and separate until you both elect to |
| Tx:29.12 | It has been futile to demand escape from sin and pain of what was | made to serve the function of retaining sin and pain. For pain and |
| Tx:29.16 | it not. Yet here on earth it has a double purpose, for it can be | made to teach opposing things. And they reflect the teacher who is |
| Tx:29.17 | no longer. He must sacrifice your self, and in His sacrifice are you | made more, and He is lessened by the loss of you. And what is gone |
| Tx:29.21 | Think you the Father lost Himself when He created you? Was He | made weak because He shared His love? Was He made incomplete by your |
| Tx:29.21 | He created you? Was He made weak because He shared His love? Was He | made incomplete by your perfection? Or are you the proof that He is |
| Tx:29.21 | His Son prefers to his reality. He must be savior from the dream he | made, that he be free of it. He must see someone else as not a body, |
| Tx:29.26 | dream, for fear is the material of dreams from which they all are | made. Their form can change, but they cannot be made of something |
| Tx:29.26 | which they all are made. Their form can change, but they cannot be | made of something else. The miracle were treacherous indeed if it |
| Tx:29.27 | Depression or assault must be the theme of every dream, for they are | made of fear. The thin disguise of pleasure and of joy in which they |
| Tx:29.36 | Because unless the Holy Spirit gives the dream its function, it was | made for hate and will continue in death's services. Each form it |
| Tx:29.37 | and separation, even though it was for this that every dream was | made. Yet nothing in the world of dreams remains without the hope of |
| Tx:29.39 | is not where the eternal is. God's Son can never change by what men | made of him. He will be as he was and as he is, for time appointed |
| Tx:29.40 | take this purpose as its own. Change is the only thing that can be | made a blessing here, where purpose is not fixed, however changeless |
| Tx:29.42 | and tie your hands and kill your body only if you think that it was | made to crucify God's Son. For even though it was a dream of death, |
| Tx:29.48 | All idols of this world were | made to keep the truth within from being known to you and to maintain |
| Tx:29.50 | learn what time is for. And speed the end of idols in a world | made sad and sick by seeing idols there. Your holy minds are altars |
| Tx:29.50 | of idols. It is not the fear of loss of your reality. But you have | made of your reality an idol which you must protect against the light |
| Tx:29.52 | because you do not know what they are for and why they have been | made. An idol is an image of your brother which you would value more |
| Tx:29.52 | your brother which you would value more than what he is. Idols are | made that he may be replaced, no matter what their form. And it is |
| Tx:29.54 | a gap between the Christ and what you see. An idol is a wish | made tangible and given form and thus perceived as real and seen |
| Tx:29.57 | come to die, the all-encompassing to suffer loss, the timeless to be | made the slaves of time. Here does the changeless change, the peace |
| Tx:29.61 | idols that they raise him up? Hear then your story in the dream you | made, and ask yourself if it be not the truth that you believe that |
| Tx:29.61 | as Himself. And in that dream was Heaven changed to hell, and God | made enemy unto His Son. |
| Tx:29.63 | All figures in the dream are idols | made to save you from the dream. Yet they are part of what they have |
| Tx:29.63 | to save you from the dream. Yet they are part of what they have been | made to save you from. Thus does an idol keep the dream alive and |
| Tx:29.63 | will not escape the penalty he laid upon himself within the dream he | made. God knows of justice, not of penalty. But in the dream of |
| Tx:29.64 | of those who play with them. But they are eager to forget that they | made up the dream in which their toys are real, nor recognize their |
| Tx:29.65 | dreams. The toys have turned against the child who thought he | made them real. Yet can a dream attack? Or can a toy grow large and |
| Tx:29.66 | of all the chaos in a world he thinks is governed by the laws he | made. Yet is the real world unaffected by the world he thinks is |
| Tx:29.68 | Forgiving dreams have little need to last. They are not | made to separate the mind from what it thinks. They do not seek to |
| Tx:29.69 | of help, a calm assurance Heaven goes with you—be sure you | made an idol and believe it will betray you. For beneath your hope |
| Tx:29.70 | childish terrors melt away and dreams become a sign that you have | made a new beginning, not another try to worship idols and to keep |
| Tx:30.29 | not make decisions by yourself whatever you decide. For they are | made with idols or with God. And you ask help of Christ or |
| Tx:30.31 | or the Voice for God. Decisions cause results because they are not | made in isolation. They are made by you and your advisor for yourself |
| Tx:30.31 | cause results because they are not made in isolation. They are | made by you and your advisor for yourself and for the world as well. |
| Tx:30.34 | reminded of His love and learn your will. God would not have His Son | made prisoner to what he does not want. He joins with you in willing |
| Tx:30.36 | is done to God Himself. Think not He wills to bind you, Who has | made you co-creator of the universe along with Him. He would but keep |
| Tx:30.40 | And thus it would be necessary for the search for wholeness to be | made beyond the boundaries of limits on yourself. |
| Tx:30.41 | no meaning. And your will could not be satisfied with empty forms | made but to fill a gap which is not there. It is not this you want. |
| Tx:30.49 | You will attack what does not satisfy, and thus you will not see you | made it up. You always fight illusions. For the truth behind them is |
| Tx:30.49 | The truth could never be attacked. And this you knew when you | made idols. They were made that this might be forgotten. You attack |
| Tx:30.49 | never be attacked. And this you knew when you made idols. They were | made that this might be forgotten. You attack but false ideas and |
| Tx:30.49 | ideas and never truthful ones. All idols are the false ideas you | made to fill the gap you think arose between yourself and what is |
| Tx:30.50 | The wearying, dissatisfying gods you | made are blown-up children's toys. A child is frightened when a |
| Tx:30.50 | woolly bear begins to squeak as he takes hold of it. The rules he | made for boxes and for bears have failed him and have broken his |
| Tx:30.50 | the bears did not deceive him, broke no rules, nor mean his world is | made chaotic and unsafe. He was mistaken. He misunderstood what made |
| Tx:30.50 | is made chaotic and unsafe. He was mistaken. He misunderstood what | made him safe and thought that it had left. |
| Tx:30.51 | likes to play with them, he still perceives them as obeying rules he | made for his enjoyment. So there still are rules which they can seem |
| Tx:30.53 | bring fear because they hide the truth. Do not attack what you have | made to let you be deceived, for thus you prove that you have been |
| Tx:30.53 | to make illusions real. Yet what it makes is nothing. Who could be | made fearful by a power that can have no real effects at all? What |
| Tx:30.56 | not there begins to be perceived without the toys of terror that you | made. No more than this is asked. Be glad indeed salvation asks so |
| Tx:30.57 | “gifts” are not held dear. No rules are idly set, and no demands are | made of anyone or anything to twist and fit into the dream of fear. |
| Tx:30.59 | he will go beyond forgiveness, and he but remains until it is | made perfect in himself. He has no wish for anything but this. And |
| Tx:30.59 | Yet is he glad to wait till every hand is joined and every heart | made ready to arise and go with him. For thus is he made ready for |
| Tx:30.59 | and every heart made ready to arise and go with him. For thus is he | made ready for the step in which is all forgiveness left behind. |
| Tx:30.70 | has no foundation. It is here escape from fear begins and will be | made complete. Here is the real world given in exchange for dreams of |
| Tx:30.70 | your pardon will become the answer to attack that has been | made. And thus is pardon inappropriate, by being granted where it is |
| Tx:30.83 | advance, retreat, and gain and loss. These judgments all are | made according to the roles the script assigns. The fact they have no |
| Tx:30.83 | by the ease with which these labels change with other judgments | made on different aspects of experience. And then in looking back you |
| Tx:30.94 | temptation to prefer a dream allow uncertainty to enter here. Be not | made guilty and afraid when you are tempted by a dream of what he is. |
| Tx:30.94 | You but behold your Self in what you see. As he is healed are you | made free of guilt, for his appearance is your own to you. |
| Tx:31.3 | skill. There is no greater power in the world. The world was | made by it and even now depends on nothing else. The lessons you have |
| Tx:31.5 | Learning is an ability you | made and gave yourselves. It was not made to do the Will of God but |
| Tx:31.5 | Learning is an ability you made and gave yourselves. It was not | made to do the Will of God but to uphold a wish that It could be |
| Tx:31.5 | has learning sought to demonstrate, and you have learned what it was | made to teach. Now does your ancient overlearning stand implacable |
| Tx:31.6 | in every moment of each day, since time began and learning had been | made? |
| Tx:31.8 | nor left unanswered in the selfsame tongue in which the call was | made. And you will understand it was this call that everyone and |
| Tx:31.8 | this call that everyone and everything within the world has always | made, but you had not perceived it as it was. And now you see you |
| Tx:31.14 | would establish truth. And by your wish, you set two choices to be | made each time you think you must decide on anything. Neither is |
| Tx:31.14 | one alternative that is a different choice. But not in dreams you | made that this might be obscured to you. |
| Tx:31.16 | you arise and give away the role of leadership. And this is what you | made your brother for and learned to think that this his purpose is. |
| Tx:31.22 | thought of what you ever learned before and put aside all images you | made. The old will fall away before the new without your opposition |
| Tx:31.22 | will be no assault upon your wish to hear a call that never has been | made. Nothing will hurt you in this holy place to which you come to |
| Tx:31.25 | these are but appearances of what the journey is and how it must be | made. For next to you is One Who holds the light before you so that |
| Tx:31.25 | to you is One Who holds the light before you so that every step is | made in certainty and sureness of the road. A blindfold can indeed |
| Tx:31.29 | purpose given by the mind. For it can learn, and there is all change | made. |
| Tx:31.30 | the ravages of fear except in murder and in death. For here are you | made sin, and sin cannot abide the joyous and the free, for they are |
| Tx:31.32 | is no sacrifice that can be asked; there is no sacrifice that can be | made. |
| Tx:31.34 | its alternatives. Seek not escape from problems here. The world was | made that problems could not be escaped. Be not deceived by all the |
| Tx:31.41 | What road in all the world will lead within, when every road was | made to separate the journey from the purpose it must have unless it |
| Tx:31.42 | be a road with such an aim! Where could it go? And how could you be | made to travel on it, walking there without your own reality at one |
| Tx:31.44 | A concept of the self is | made by you. It bears no likeness to yourself at all. It is an idol, |
| Tx:31.44 | made by you. It bears no likeness to yourself at all. It is an idol, | made to take the place of your reality as Son of God. The concept of |
| Tx:31.44 | world would teach is not the thing that it appears to be. For it is | made to serve two purposes, but one of which the mind can recognize. |
| Tx:31.47 | face of innocence there is a lesson that the concept of the self was | made to teach. It is a lesson in a terrible displacement and a fear |
| Tx:31.47 | the treachery it hides. The lesson teaches this: “I am the thing you | made of me, and as you look on me, you stand condemned because of |
| Tx:31.49 | learning, they do not exist. They are not given, and they must be | made. Not one of them is true, and many come from feverish |
| Tx:31.49 | cannot be used to demonstrate the world is real. For all of them are | made within the world, born in its shadow, growing in its ways, and |
| Tx:31.51 | us consider then what proof there is that you are what your brother | made of you. For even though you do not yet perceive that this is |
| Tx:31.51 | it came what you should do in every circumstance? He must have | made the world as well as you to have such prescience in the things |
| Tx:31.52 | That you are what your brother | made of you seems most unlikely. Even if he did, who gave the face of |
| Tx:31.52 | to you? Is this your contribution? Who is, then, the “you” who | made it? And who is deceived by all your goodness and attacks it so? |
| Tx:31.52 | If the world be evil, there is still no need to hide what you are | made of. Who is there to see? And what but is attacked could need |
| Tx:31.56 | it thinks reflects the deep confusion that it feels about how it was | made and what it is. And vaguely does the concept of the self appear |
| Tx:31.59 | concept has been raised to doubt and question and been recognized as | made on no assumptions which would stand the light, then is the truth |
| Tx:31.65 | given you by which to see the world that will replace the one you | made. Your will be done! In Heaven as on earth, this is forever true. |
| Tx:31.71 | think, for you will love this concept of yourself because it was not | made for you alone. Born as a gift for someone not perceived to be |
| Tx:31.80 | is as innocent of what your brother is as it is free of any judgment | made upon yourself. It sees no past in anyone at all. And thus it |
| Tx:31.87 | lessons which you failed to learn presented once again, so where you | made a faulty choice before, you now can make a better one and thus |
| Tx:31.91 | as fear and agony appeared to be before the choice for holiness was | made. For in that choice are false distinctions gone, illusory |
| Tx:31.94 | will hear, and you will choose again. And in this choice is everyone | made free. |
| W1:10.1 | to all of them is that they are not your real thoughts. We have | made this distinction before and will again. You have no basis for |
| W1:10.2 | with “My thoughts” instead of “These thoughts” and no link is | made overtly with the things around you. The emphasis is now on the |
| W1:11.1 | the idea in this initial form, for in this idea is your release | made sure. The key to forgiveness lies in it. |
| W1:15.1 | them, and so you think you see them. This is how your “seeing” was | made. This is the function you have given your body's eyes. It is not |
| W1:15.5 | This _____is an image which I have | made. That _____is an image which I have made. |
| W1:15.5 | an image which I have made. That _____is an image which I have | made. |
| W1:22.2 | real? Is it not a happy discovery to find that you can escape? You | made what you would destroy—everything that you hate and would |
| W1:23.4 | You see the world which you have | made, but you do not see yourself as the image-maker. You cannot be |
| W1:23.4 | and so transform them that you will love them even though they were | made of hate. For you will not be making them alone. |
| W1:28.10 | Each application should be | made quite slowly and as thoughtfully as possible. There is no hurry. |
| W1:32.1 | you see because you invented it. You can give it up as easily as you | made it up. You will see it or not see it, as you wish. While you |
| W1:33.3 | as possible. Specific applications of today's idea should also be | made immediately when any situation arises which tempts you to become |
| W1:34.2 | your inner world to which the applications of today's idea should be | made. |
| W1:34.5 | The shorter applications are to be frequent and | made whenever you feel your peace of mind is threatened in any way. |
| W1:35.2 | want. And you want it to protect the image of yourself that you have | made. The image is part of this environment. What you see while you |
| W1:36.6 | with your eyes closed. All applications should, of course, be | made quite slowly, as effortlessly and unhurriedly as possible. |
| W1:38.1 | the Mind of his Creator. Through your holiness, the power of God is | made manifest. Through your holiness the power of God is made |
| W1:38.1 | of God is made manifest. Through your holiness the power of God is | made available. And there is nothing the power of God cannot do. |
| W1:39.14 | In the shorter applications, which should be | made some three or four times an hour and more if possible, you may |
| W1:43.2 | is the undoing of what never was, perception has a mighty purpose. | Made by the Son of God for an unholy purpose, it must become the |
| W1:44.5 | everything that you now believe and all the thoughts which you have | made up. Properly speaking, this is the release from hell. Perceived |
| W1:51.3 | It is merely an illusion of reality, because my judgments have been | made quite apart from reality. I am willing to recognize the lack of |
| W1:51.4 | being willing to do so. Is not this a better choice than the one I | made before? |
| W1:51.5 | the thoughts I think with God. I am not aware of them because I have | made my thoughts to take their place. I am willing to recognize that |
| W1:52.2 | it is always because I have replaced reality with illusions which I | made up. The illusions are upsetting because I have given them |
| W1:53.6 | [15] My thoughts are images which I have | made. Whatever I see reflects my thoughts. It is my thoughts which |
| W1:53.6 | light on what I see. Yet God's way is sure. The images I have | made cannot prevail against Him because it is not my will that they |
| W1:56.3 | world I see attests to the fearful nature of the self-image I have | made. If I would remember who I am, it is essential that I let this |
| W1:56.5 | [29] God is in everything I see. Behind every image I have | made, the truth remains unchanged. Behind every veil I have drawn |
| W1:57.3 | [32] I have invented the world I see. I | made up the prison in which I see myself. All I need do is recognize |
| W1:57.5 | that it reflects the laws of God instead of the rules which I | made up for it to obey. I will understand that peace, not war, abides |
| W1:61.1 | or of self-deception. It does not describe the self-concept you have | made. It does not refer to any of the characteristics with which you |
| W1:61.4 | and therefore to all temptation. It brings all the images you have | made about yourself to the truth and helps you depart in peace, |
| W1:64.2 | that the Holy Spirit has another use for all the illusions you have | made, and therefore He sees another purpose in them. To the Holy |
| W1:64.10 | In the frequent applications of today's idea to be | made throughout the day, devote several minutes to reviewing these |
| W1:66.9 | are only two parts of your mind. One is ruled by the ego and is | made up of illusions. The other is the home of the Holy Spirit, where |
| W1:66.10 | be that your function is established by God through His Voice or is | made by the ego which you have made to replace Him. Which is true? |
| W1:66.10 | by God through His Voice or is made by the ego which you have | made to replace Him. Which is true? Unless God gave your function to |
| W1:72.2 | and unable to reach other minds except through the body which was | made to imprison it. The limit on communication cannot be the best |
| W1:72.7 | seek for prey and mercy cannot enter, the ego comes to save you. God | made you a body. Very well. Let us accept this and be glad. As a |
| W1:75.7 | mind, washed of all past ideas and clean of every concept you have | made. You have forgiven the world today. You can look upon it now as |
| W1:76.6 | over until you realize that it applies to everything that you have | made in opposition to His Will. Your magic has no meaning. What it is |
| W1:76.10 | of God. Payment is neither given nor received. Exchange cannot be | made, there are no substitutes, and nothing is replaced by something |
| W1:77.3 | to you. You have been promised full release from the world you | made. You have been assured that the Kingdom of God is within you and |
| W1:78.3 | been. He stands in light, but you were in the dark. Each grievance | made the darkness deeper, and you could not see. |
| W1:85.3 | Specific applications of this idea might be | made in these forms: |
| W1:88.2 | choose to recognize what is already here. Salvation is a decision | made already. Attack and grievances are not there to choose. That is |
| W1:93.2 | to help you see that they are based on nothing. That you have | made mistakes is obvious. That you have sought salvation in strange |
| W1:93.2 | of foolish fantasies and savage dreams and have bowed down to idols | made of dust—all this is true by what you now believe. |
| W1:93.5 | The self you | made is not the Son of God. Therefore, this self does not exist at |
| W1:93.5 | sinlessness to sin and love to hate. What power can this self you | made possess when it would contradict the Will of God? |
| W1:93.6 | touch it nor can change what God created as eternal. The self you | made, evil and full of sin, is meaningless. Your sinlessness is |
| W1:93.7 | of but one thought—you are as God created you, not what you | made of yourself. Whatever evil you may think you did, you are as God |
| W1:93.7 | may think you did, you are as God created you. Whatever mistakes you | made, the truth about you is unchanged. Creation is eternal and |
| W1:93.11 | You are what God created or what you | made. One Self is true; the other is not there. Try to experience the |
| W1:93.11 | its majesty behind the tiny idols of evil and sinfulness you have | made to replace it. Let it come into its own. Here you are. This is |
| W1:94.5 | reach the Son of God in you. This is the Self that never sinned nor | made an image to replace reality. This is the Self which never left |
| W1:95.10 | fail to comply with the requirements of this course, you have merely | made a mistake. This calls for correction and for nothing else. |
| W1:96.3 | be resolved, and good and evil have no meeting place. The self you | made can never be your Self, nor can your Self be split in two and |
| W1:98.4 | today will gladly offer us all that they learned and every gain they | made. Those still uncertain too will join with us and, borrowing our |
| W1:98.5 | to make in terms of a reward so great it has no measure? You have | made a thousand losing bargains at the least. |
| W1:98.7 | yours and make each repetition of today's idea a total dedication, | made in faith as perfect and as sure as His in you. |
| W1:98.13 | fill, and He will make you sure you want this choice, which He has | made with you and you with Him. |
| W1:99.15 | function that is not of God. Forgive yourself the one you think you | made. Forgiveness and salvation are the same. Forgive what you have |
| W1:99.15 | made. Forgiveness and salvation are the same. Forgive what you have | made, and you are saved. |
| W1:101.5 | with an open mind which cherishes no lingering belief that you have | made a devil of God's Son. |
| W1:103.2 | its results become the heritage of minds that think what they have | made is real. These images, with no reality in truth, bear witness to |
| W1:104.1 | Who cannot fail to give you what He wills. Yet must there be a place | made ready to receive His gifts. They are not welcomed gladly by a |
| W1:104.1 | welcomed gladly by a mind which has instead received the gifts it | made where His belong, as substitutes for them. |
| W1:104.3 | will to have them now and know in choosing them in place of what we | made we but unite our will with what God wills and recognize the same |
| W1:104.6 | the conflicts of the world that offer other gifts and other goals | made of illusions, witnessed to by them, and sought for only in a |
| W1:105.1 | taker is the richer by his loss. These are not gifts, but bargains | made with guilt. |
| W1:107.10 | that He be in your awareness as you go with Him. You are not | made of flesh and blood and bone but were created by the self-same |
| W1:108.13 | Think of the exercises for today as quick advances in your learning, | made still faster and more sure each time you say: |
| W1:109.7 | Each hour that you take your rest today, a tired mind is suddenly | made glad, a bird with broken wings begins to sing, a stream long dry |
| W1:109.11 | We rest together here, for thus our rest is | made complete, and what we give today we have received already. Time |
| W1:110.1 | if you believed that it is true. Its truth would mean that you have | made no changes in yourself which have reality, nor changed the |
| W1:110.2 | perfect vision which will heal all the mistakes that any mind has | made at any time or place. It is enough to heal the past and make the |
| W1:110.9 | are as God created you. Today honor your Self. Let graven images you | made to be the Son of God instead of what He is be worshiped not |
| W1:110.10 | today, and find Him. He will be your savior from all idols you have | made. For when you find Him you will understand how worthless are |
| W1:115.2 | My function here is to forgive the world for all the errors I have | made. For thus am I released from them with all the world. |
| W1:118.2 | peace and joy in glad exchange for all the substitutes which I have | made for happiness and peace. |
| W1:121.6 | in you. Through Him you learn how to forgive the self you think you | made and let it disappear. Thus you return your mind as one to Him |
| W1:122.9 | the key within our hands, accepting Heaven's answer to the hell we | made, but where we would remain no more. |
| W1:123.2 | of some insight into the real extent of all the gains which you have | made; the gifts you have received. Be glad today in loving |
| W1:123.2 | alone. Be grateful He has saved you from the self you thought you | made to take the place of Him and His creation. Give Him thanks today. |
| W1:127.5 | obeys can help you grasp love's meaning. What the world believes was | made to hide love's meaning and to keep it dark and secret. There is |
| W1:127.10 | upon all who come to learn to cast aside the world they thought was | made in hate to be love's enemy. Now are they all made free along |
| W1:127.10 | they thought was made in hate to be love's enemy. Now are they all | made free along with us. Now are they all our brothers in God's Love. |
| W1:129.11 | seen its opposite at last, and we are grateful that the choice is | made. Remember your decision hourly, and take a moment to confirm |
| W1:130.4 | Fear has | made everything you think you see. All separation, all distinctions, |
| W1:130.4 | you believe make up the world. They are not there. Love's enemy has | made them up. Yet love can have no enemy, and so they have no cause, |
| W1:130.6 | where none is possible. The world you see is proof you have already | made a choice as all-embracing as its opposite. What we would learn |
| W1:130.10 | ever seen before. And you will know God's strength upheld as you | made this choice. |
| W1:131.3 | heart you pray for danger and protection for the little dream you | made. |
| W1:131.8 | Heaven remains your one alternative to this strange world you | made and all its ways—its shifting patterns and uncertain goals, |
| W1:131.8 | and uncertain goals, its painful pleasures, and its tragic joys. God | made no contradictions. What denies its own existence and attacks |
| W1:131.10 | denies himself and contradicts what has no opposite. He thinks he | made a hell opposing Heaven and believes that he abides in what does |
| W1:131.13 | a different world and think a different kind of thought from those I | made. The world I seek I did not make alone. The thoughts I want to |
| W1:132.5 | think you did not make the world but came unwillingly to what was | made already, hardly waiting for your thoughts to give it meaning. |
| W1:132.6 | the lesson for today. It is not pride which tells you that you | made the world you see and that it changes as you change your mind. |
| W1:132.12 | His thought by which you were created, so it is your thoughts which | made it and must set it free that you may know the thoughts you share |
| W1:132.14 | There is no world because it is a thought apart from God and | made to separate the Father and the Son and break away a part of God |
| W1:133.5 | so clearly to the place where there is but one choice that must be | made. |
| W1:134.12 | would make him safe. He can remove the ponderous and useless armor | made to chain his mind to fear and misery. His step is light, and as |
| W1:135.4 | frightening. It stems from fear, increasing fear as each defense is | made. You think it offers safety. Yet it speaks of fear made real and |
| W1:135.4 | defense is made. You think it offers safety. Yet it speaks of fear | made real and terror justified. Is it not strange you do not pause to |
| W1:135.5 | that is very weak and easily assaulted. It must be something | made easy prey, unable to protect itself, and needing your defense. |
| W1:135.13 | it is achieved, nor how to recognize the problem that the plan is | made to solve. It must misuse the body in its plans until it |
| W1:135.15 | plans are but defenses with the purpose all of them were | made to realize. They are the means by which a frightened mind would |
| W1:135.19 | see His loving blessing shine in every step you ever took. While you | made plans for death, He led you gently to eternal life. |
| W1:136.3 | Defenses are not unintentional nor are they | made without awareness. They are secret magic wands you wave when |
| W1:136.3 | to use them. In that second, even less, in which the choice is | made, you recognize exactly what you would attempt to do and then |
| W1:136.4 | But afterwards your plan requires that you must forget you | made it, so it seems to be external to your own intent—a happening |
| W1:136.9 | You suffer pain because the body does, and in this pain are you | made one with it. Thus is your “true” identity preserved and the |
| W1:136.11 | that Heaven quails before such mad attacks as these, with God | made blind by your illusions, truth turned into lies, and all the |
| W1:136.11 | by your illusions, truth turned into lies, and all the universe | made slave to laws which your defenses would impose on it. Yet who |
| W1:136.11 | would impose on it. Yet who believes illusions but the one who | made them up? Who else can see them and react to them as if they were |
| W1:136.14 | apart from time. For time is but another meaningless defense you | made against the truth. Yet what God wills is here, and you remain as |
| W1:136.20 | by time, by weather or fatigue, by food and drink, or any laws you | made it serve before. You need do nothing now to make it well, for |
| W1:136.21 | uncertainties to come, you have again misplaced yourself, and | made a bodily identity which will attack the body, for the mind is |
| W1:137.7 | away all sin and the real world will occupy the place of what you | made, so healing must replace the fantasies of sickness which you |
| W1:137.9 | practice you need undertake to let His laws replace the ones you | made to hold yourself a prisoner to death. |
| W1:138.4 | decisions would induce. You make but one. And when that one is | made, you will perceive it was no choice at all, for truth is true |
| W1:138.7 | So we begin today considering the choice that time was | made to help us make. Such is its holy purpose, now transformed from |
| W1:138.8 | safe, and magically armored against truth. And these decisions are | made unaware to keep them safely undisturbed, apart from question and |
| W1:138.9 | Heaven is chosen consciously. The choice cannot be | made until alternatives are accurately seen and understood. All that |
| W1:138.9 | with Heaven's help, and all mistakes in judgment which the mind had | made before are open to correction as the truth dismisses them as |
| W1:138.11 | Heaven as we wake and spend five minutes making sure that we have | made the one decision that is sane. We recognize we make a conscious |
| W1:138.11 | and transparent in the light. It holds no terror now, for what was | made enormous, vengeful, pitiless with hate demands obscurity for |
| W1:138.12 | close our eyes in sleep tonight, we reaffirm the choice that we have | made each hour in between. And now we give the last five minutes of |
| W1:139.5 | It is for this denial that you need Atonement. Your denial | made no change in what you are. But you have split your mind into |
| W1:140.9 | to which we realize that there can never be a meaningful distinction | made between what is untrue and equally untrue. Here there are no |
| W1:R4.5 | you something else and hold correction off through self-deceptions | made to take its place. |
| W1:R4.12 | as we review, we close as we began, repeating first the thought that | made the day a special time of blessing and of happiness for us and |
| W1:151.17 | and happily accepts our holy thoughts which Heaven has corrected and | made pure. Now has our ministry begun at last, to carry round the |
| W1:152.6 | Is it not strange that you believe to think you | made the world you see is arrogance? God made it not. Of this you can |
| W1:152.6 | you believe to think you made the world you see is arrogance? God | made it not. Of this you can be sure. What can He know of the |
| W1:152.6 | a body that must die? You but accuse Him of insanity, to think He | made a world where such things seem to have reality. He is not mad. |
| W1:152.7 | To think that God | made chaos, contradicts His Will, invented opposites to truth, and |
| W1:152.8 | Let us today be truly humble and accept what we have | made as what it is. The power of decision is our own. Decide but to |
| W1:152.8 | rightful place as co-creator of the universe, and all you think you | made will disappear. What rises to awareness then will be all that |
| W1:152.8 | as it is now. And it will take the place of self-deceptions | made but to usurp the altar to the Father and the Son. |
| W1:153.4 | you do in fear of it. You do not understand how much you have been | made to sacrifice who feel its iron grip upon your heart. |
| W1:153.5 | a victim to attack by fantasies, by dreams, and by illusions he has | made; yet helpless he is in their presence, needful only of defense |
| W1:153.6 | Perhaps you will recall the course maintains that choice is always | made between His strength and your own weakness seen apart from Him. |
| W1:153.13 | abandoned by your Father, left alone in terror in a fearful world | made mad by sin and guilt, be happy now. That game is over. Now a |
| W1:155.13 | are worthy of His trust in you. He cannot be deceived. His trust has | made your pathway certain and your goal secure. You will not fail |
| W1:158.6 | Here is the joining of the world of doubt and shadows | made with the intangible. Here is a quiet place within the world made |
| W1:158.6 | made with the intangible. Here is a quiet place within the world | made holy by forgiveness and by love. Here are all contradictions |
| W1:159.5 | its power can you safely trust to carry you from this world into one | made holy by forgiveness. Things which seem quite solid here are |
| W1:159.7 | Here does the world remember what was lost when it was | made. For here it is repaired, made new again but in a different |
| W1:159.7 | remember what was lost when it was made. For here it is repaired, | made new again but in a different light. What was to be the home of |
| W1:159.10 | a forgiven world. It is His gift whereby a sweet transition can be | made from death to life, from hopelessness to hope. Let us an instant |
| W1:160.6 | to himself can find no home wherever he may look, for he has | made return impossible. His way is lost except a miracle will search |
| W1:160.8 | you are not a stranger to your Father, nor is your Creator stranger | made to you. Whom God has joined remains forever one, at home in Him, |
| W1:161.1 | Christ where fear and anger had prevailed before. Here is Atonement | made complete, the world passed safely by, and Heaven now restored. |
| W1:161.3 | Thus were specifics | made. And now it is specifics we must use in practicing. We give them |
| W1:161.3 | different from the one we gave to them. Yet He can use but what we | made to teach us from a different point of view, so we can see a |
| W1:162.1 | sacred, for they are the words God gave in answer to the world you | made. By them it disappears, and all things seen within its misty |
| W1:163.4 | is the strength and might of God Himself perceived within an idol | made of dust. Here is the opposite of God proclaimed as lord of all |
| W1:163.8 | it now in every form for their salvation and our own as well. God | made not death. Whatever form it takes must therefore be illusion. |
| W1:164.5 | curtain to reveal what lies beyond them. Now is what is really there | made visible, while all the shadows which appeared to hide it sink to |
| W1:164.7 | not judge today. We will receive but what is given us from judgment | made beyond the world. Our practicing today becomes our gift of |
| W1:165.6 | Now is all doubting past, the journey's end | made certain, and salvation given you. Now is Christ's power in your |
| W1:166.3 | presence, contradict the truth, and suffer to preserve the world he | made. |
| W1:166.4 | the only safety he believes that he can find. Without the world he | made is he an outcast, homeless and afraid. He does not realize that |
| W1:166.7 | This is your chosen self, the one you | made as a replacement for reality. This is the self you savagely |
| W1:166.12 | still of one thing more you had forgotten. For His touch on you has | made you like Himself. The gifts you have are not for you alone. What |
| W1:167.5 | But they cannot give birth to what was never given them. As they are | made, so will their making be. As they were born, so will they then |
| W1:170.5 | mind from him who is to be attacked with perfect faith the split you | made is real. |
| W1:170.8 | are smeared with blood and fire seems to flame from him, he is but | made of stone. He can do nothing. We need not defy his power. He has |
| W1:170.12 | For you look for the last time upon this bit of carven stone you | made and call it god no longer. You have reached this place before, |
| W1:170.13 | to you at last. The Call of God is heard and answered. Now has fear | made way for love, as God Himself replaces cruelty. |
| W1:R5.1 | more surely. Our footsteps have not been unwavering, and doubts have | made us walk uncertainly and slowly on the road this course sets |
| W1:R5.10 | you, as I do. I am incomplete without your part in me. And as I am | made whole, we go together to our ancient home, prepared for us |
| W1:182.3 | does not understand he builds in vain. The home he seeks cannot be | made by him. There is no substitute for Heaven. All he ever made was |
| W1:182.3 | be made by him. There is no substitute for Heaven. All he ever | made was hell. |
| W1:182.12 | and you accept it in exchange for all the toys of battle you have | made. And now the way is open, and the journey has an end in sight at |
| W1:183.11 | will forever give. He calls on Him to let all things he thought he | made be nameless now, and in their place the holy Name of God becomes |
| W1:184.1 | You live by symbols. You have | made up names for everything you see. Each one becomes a separate |
| W1:184.4 | This is the way reality is | made by partial vision, purposefully set against the given truth. Its |
| W1:184.8 | Think not you | made the world. Illusions, yes! But what is true in earth and Heaven |
| W1:184.12 | what He has given as the answer to the pitiful inheritance you | made as fitting tribute to the Son He loves. |
| W1:184.15 | with all living things and You Who are their One Creator. What we | made and call by many different names is but a shadow we have tried |
| W1:184.15 | one of them. Your Name is our salvation and escape from what we | made. Your Name unites us in the Oneness which is our inheritance and |
| W1:187.1 | can give unless he has. In fact, giving is proof of having. We have | made this point before. What seems to make it hard to credit is not |
| W1:187.8 | very presence proves that error has arisen and correction must be | made. Your blessing will correct it. Given first to you, it now is |
| W1:190.11 | And so again we make the only choice that ever can be | made—we choose between illusions and the truth, or pain and joy, or |
| W1:191.12 | sleep, and opening his holy eyes return again to bless the world he | made. In error it began. But it will end in the reflection of his |
| W1:192.9 | hold no one prisoner. Release instead of bind, for thus are you | made free. The way is simple. Every time you feel a stab of anger, |
| W1:193.2 | at all. Yet it is He Who gives the means by which perception is | made true and beautiful enough to let the light of Heaven shine upon |
| W1:193.14 | it off another day, another minute, or another instant. Time was | made for this. Use it today for what its purpose is. Morning and |
| W1:194.5 | the world. Now is he free, and all his glory shines upon a world | made free with him to share his holiness. |
| W1:194.7 | again when he has been deceived, to change his mind when he has | made mistakes. |
| W1:195.1 | he sees another suffer more? Your gratitude is due to Him alone Who | made all cause of sorrow disappear throughout the world. |
| W1:195.6 | one with Him. And we rejoice that no exceptions ever can be | made which would reduce our wholeness nor impair or change our |
| W1:198.2 | Condemn and you are | made a prisoner. Forgive and you are freed. Such is the law that |
| W1:198.13 | stillness where before there was a frantic rush of thoughts that | made no sense. Now is there tranquil light across the face of earth, |
| W1:198.13 | made no sense. Now is there tranquil light across the face of earth, | made quiet in a dreamless sleep. And now the Word of God alone |
| W1:198.13 | longer. Then are symbols done and everything you ever thought you | made completely vanished from the mind which God forever knows to be |
| W1:199.1 | in a body looks for it where it cannot be found. The mind can be | made free when it no longer sees itself as in a body, firmly tied to |
| W1:199.3 | because it dwells in it and lives united with the home that it has | made. It is a part of the illusion that has sheltered it from being |
| W1:200.5 | be bound till all the world is seen by you as blessed and everyone | made free of your mistakes and honored as he is. You made him not; no |
| W1:200.5 | and everyone made free of your mistakes and honored as he is. You | made him not; no more yourself. And as you free the one, the other is |
| W1:R6.2 | day. One is enough. But for that one, there must be no exceptions | made. And so we need to use them all and let them blend as one, as |
| W1:210.1 | only joy for His beloved Son. And that I choose instead of what I | made. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:213.1 | A lesson is a miracle which God offers to me in place of thoughts I | made that hurt me. What I learn of Him becomes the way I am set free. |
| W2:I.6 | us, as through Christ's vision we behold a world beyond the one we | made and take that world to be the full replacement of our own. |
| W2:I.8 | Who is its one Creator. We have found the way He chose for us and | made the choice to follow it as He would have us go. His hand has |
| W2:229.2 | and sinless in the midst of all the thoughts of sin my foolish mind | made up. And thanks to You for saving me from them. Amen. |
| W2:WS.1 | Salvation is a promise | made by God that you would find your way to Him at last. It cannot |
| W2:235.2 | Father, Your holiness is mine. Your Love created me and | made my sinlessness forever part of You. I have no guilt or sin in |
| W2:238.2 | how dear His Son, created by His Love, remains to Him Whose Love is | made complete in him. |
| W2:WIW.2 | The world was | made as an attack on God. It symbolizes fear. And what is fear except |
| W2:WIW.3 | to seek. Their aim is to fulfill the purpose which the world was | made to witness and make real. They see in its illusions but a solid |
| W2:WIW.4 | As sight was | made to lead away from truth, it can be redirected. Sounds become the |
| W2:WIW.5 | perception. Let us not be satisfied until forgiveness has been | made complete. And let us not attempt to change our function. We must |
| W2:WIW.5 | attempt to change our function. We must save the world. For we who | made it must behold it through the eyes of Christ, that what was made |
| W2:WIW.5 | who made it must behold it through the eyes of Christ, that what was | made to die be restored to Everlasting Life. |
| W2:WIS.2 | The body is the instrument the mind | made in its striving to deceive itself. Its purpose is to strive. Yet |
| W2:WIB.3 | is born. For only love creates in truth, and truth can never fear. | Made to be fearful, must the body serve the purpose given it. But we |
| W2:WIB.4 | is the means by which God's Son returns to sanity. Though it was | made to fence him into hell without escape, yet has the goal of |
| W2:WIB.4 | Now is the body holy. Now it serves to heal the mind that it was | made to kill. |
| W2:263.1 | life to it. And would I look upon what You created as if it could be | made sinful? I would not perceive such dark and fearful images. A |
| W2:269.1 | return to truth. I ask for the illusion which transcends all those I | made. Today I choose to see a world forgiven in which everyone shows |

| Tx:1.107 | But, although he can perceive false associations, he can never | make them real except to himself. Man believes in what he creates. If |
| Tx:2.39 | in order to set a limit on the need for the belief and ultimately to | make learning complete. The Atonement is the final lesson. Learning |
| Tx:2.42 | with loss. This is the same mistake all the separated ones | make in one way or another. They cannot believe that a defense which |
| Tx:2.46 | man the one defense against all separation mind-errors which can | make him perfectly invulnerable. |
| Tx:2.50 | themselves and their true creative powers on useless attempts to | make themselves more comfortable by inappropriate means. But the real |
| Tx:3.1 | you may become much too fearful when the unexpected does occur to | make constructive use of it. However, as you study these earlier |
| Tx:3.11 | No one who is free of the scarcity-error could possibly | make this mistake. If the crucifixion is seen from an upside-down |
| Tx:3.29 | to validate what is true in everything you perceive, you will | make it true for you. Truth overcomes all error. This means that if |
| Tx:3.42 | he knows that he did not and could not create himself. He can never | make his misperceptions valid. His creation is beyond his own error, |
| Tx:3.49 | on true perception. I cannot choose for you, but I can help you | make your own right choice. “Many are called, but few are chosen” |
| Tx:3.51 | accomplished by the union of my will with the Father's. We can now | make a distinction which will greatly facilitate clarity in our |
| Tx:3.52 | the words “create” and “make” have been greatly confused. When you | make something, you make it out of a sense of lack or need. Anything |
| Tx:3.52 | and “make” have been greatly confused. When you make something, you | make it out of a sense of lack or need. Anything that is made is made |
| Tx:3.52 | for a specific purpose and has no true generalizability. When you | make something to fill a perceived lack, which is obviously why you |
| Tx:3.52 | to fill a perceived lack, which is obviously why you would want to | make anything, you are tacitly implying that you believe in |
| Tx:3.65 | the idea of being more debased than they are. All of this does | make you feel tired because it is essentially disheartening. You are |
| Tx:3.77 | as self-creating, but he cannot do more than believe it. He cannot | make it true. And, as we said before, when you finally perceive |
| Tx:3.77 | is why you cannot create and are filled with fear about what you | make. |
| Tx:3.78 | The mind can | make the belief in separation very real and very fearful, and this |
| Tx:4.4 | can be endless unless they are given up by an act of will. Do not | make the pathetic human error of “clinging to the old rugged cross.” |
| Tx:4.8 | the ego can learn because its maker can be misguided but cannot | make the totally lifeless out of the life-given. The Soul need not be |
| Tx:4.12 | to want to obey its laws unless you believe in them. The ego cannot | make this choice because of the nature of its origin. You can because |
| Tx:4.14 | limits for you. Once again—nothing you do or think or wish or | make is necessary to establish your worth. This point is not |
| Tx:4.18 | home for you because it cannot build otherwise. Do not try to | make this impoverished house stand. Its weakness is your strength. |
| Tx:4.18 | house stand. Its weakness is your strength. Only God could | make a home that is worthy of His creations, who have chosen to leave |
| Tx:4.52 | Holy One from entering. Light cannot penetrate through the walls you | make to block it, and it is forever unwilling to destroy what you |
| Tx:4.53 | this together, for once He has come, you will be ready to help me | make other minds ready for Him. How long will you deny Him His |
| Tx:4.78 | doubt that it will channelize your efforts automatically. When you | make a decision of purpose, then, you have made a decision about your |
| Tx:4.86 | that your choice in turning to me is the only sane one you can | make. No one who has learned from experience that one choice brings |
| Tx:4.96 | is true and does not respond at all to anything else. Nor does it | make any attempt to establish what is true. It knows that what is |
| Tx:5.1 | To heal is to | make happy. I have told you before to think how many opportunities |
| Tx:5.2 | the only possible whole state is the wholly joyous. To heal or to | make joyous is therefore the same as to integrate and to make one. |
| Tx:5.2 | heal or to make joyous is therefore the same as to integrate and to | make one. That is why it makes no difference to what part or by what |
| Tx:5.22 | are possible. As a result, there are choices which you must | make. In the holy state, the will is free in the sense that its |
| Tx:5.27 | me all power in Heaven and earth. My only gift to you is to help you | make the same decision for yourself. The will for this decision is |
| Tx:5.27 | God, I showed you that this decision can be made and that you can | make it. |
| Tx:5.28 | the Kingdom than to restore it to the perfect integration that can | make it whole? |
| Tx:5.35 | is an idea and is therefore strengthened by being shared. If you | make the mistake of looking for the Holy Spirit in yourself alone, |
| Tx:5.48 | not help anyone. This distinction is wise though incomplete. Let us | make the distinction a little sharper now. Neurotic guilt feelings |
| Tx:5.49 | I have come to give you the foundation, so your own thoughts can | make you really free. You have carried the burden of the ideas you |
| Tx:5.54 | what you have learned, because by so doing you can depend on it. | Make it dependable in my name, because my name is the name of God's |
| Tx:5.72 | you the continuity of eternity in exchange. When you choose to | make this exchange, you will simultaneously exchange guilt for joy, |
| Tx:5.72 | love, and pain for peace. My role is only to unchain your will and | make it free. Your ego cannot accept this freedom and will oppose |
| Tx:5.90 | Do you really believe you can | make a voice that can drown out His? Do you really believe that you |
| Tx:6.5 | you that you can always call on me to share my decision and thus | make it stronger. I also told you that the crucifixion was the last |
| Tx:6.5 | at that time. Nevertheless, it has a definite contribution to | make to your own lives, and if you will consider it without fear, it |
| Tx:6.27 | is to keep the separation going. It is solely a device of the ego to | make you feel different from your brothers and separated from them. |
| Tx:6.35 | accept the idea that return is necessary because it can so easily | make the idea seem so difficult. Yet the Holy Spirit tells you that |
| Tx:6.35 | involve any problem. It does not follow, however, that you cannot | make the idea of return [both] necessary and difficult. It is surely |
| Tx:6.38 | Kingdom shines in your mind forever, but it must shine outward to | make you aware of it. The Holy Spirit was given you with perfect |
| Tx:6.57 | Holy Spirit does know more than you do now, but He teaches only to | make you equal with Him. This is because you had already taught |
| Tx:6.59 | if he were told, “Do not do this because it might hurt you and | make you unsafe, but if you do that you will escape from harm and be |
| Tx:6.62 | God did not | make the body because it is destructible and therefore not of the |
| Tx:6.77 | You are not asked to | make insane decisions, although you are free to think you are. It |
| Tx:6.87 | be no exceptions, although it does not deny that the temptation to | make exceptions will occur. Here, then, your consistency is called on |
| Tx:7.4 | it is competitive rather than loving. It is always willing to | make a “deal,” but it cannot understand that to be like another means |
| Tx:7.12 | anyone can listen fairly to both sides of any issue, he will | make the right decision. This is because he has the answer. Conflict |
| Tx:7.17 | remembering and forgetting, but the forgetting aspect is only to | make the remembering consistent. You forget in order to remember |
| Tx:7.25 | with you, you are the way and the truth and the light. You did not | make this power, any more than I did. It was created to be shared and |
| Tx:7.31 | Inspiration is the opposite of dispiriting and therefore means to | make joyous. The dispirited are depressed, because they believe that |
| Tx:7.35 | the ego tries to use all abilities, since its goal is always to | make you believe that you are in opposition. |
| Tx:7.52 | mind shine with mine upon their minds and by our gratitude to them | make them aware of the light in them. |
| Tx:7.54 | not relinquished at all. Fear and love are equally reciprocal. They | make or create, depending on whether the ego or the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:7.59 | But there is nothing else. It does not follow that the mind cannot | make illusions, but it does follow that if it makes illusions it will |
| Tx:7.66 | blind, however, because there is nothing to attack. Therefore, they | make up images, perceive them as unworthy, and attack them for their |
| Tx:7.66 | loved. That would justify it, and it cannot be justified. You cannot | make the meaningless meaningful. This can only be an insane attempt. |
| Tx:7.67 | sanity as wholly desirable. If you want something else, you will | make something else, but because it is something else, it will attack |
| Tx:7.72 | another and are therefore not aware of it in you. Every response you | make is determined by what you think you are, and what you want to be |
| Tx:7.72 | are. Therefore, what you want to be determines every response you | make. |
| Tx:7.75 | You are unaware of your gift, because you do not give it. You cannot | make nothing live since it cannot be enlivened. Therefore, you are |
| Tx:7.90 | You who made the ego by believing the unbelievable cannot | make this judgment alone. By accepting the Atonement for yourself, |
| Tx:7.108 | is worthy of him, because his own worth is beyond anything he can | make. |
| Tx:7.109 | That is the only environment in which you can be happy. You cannot | make it any more than you can make yourselves. It has been created |
| Tx:7.109 | in which you can be happy. You cannot make it any more than you can | make yourselves. It has been created for you, as you were created for |
| Tx:8.3 | no opponent. This is the reinterpretation of reality which you must | make to secure peace, and the only one you need ever make. |
| Tx:8.3 | which you must make to secure peace, and the only one you need ever | make. |
| Tx:8.9 | such as this? Does the total disregard of anything it teaches | make anything but sense? Is this the teacher to whom a Son of God |
| Tx:8.12 | you the difference between imprisonment and freedom. You cannot | make this distinction without Him. That is because you have taught |
| Tx:8.22 | will accept the Atonement for yourself. What other choice could you | make? Having made this choice, you will begin to learn and understand |
| Tx:8.31 | it. I cannot will what God does not will. I can offer you my will to | make yours invincible by this sharing, but I cannot oppose yours |
| Tx:8.37 | Yet to heal is still to | make whole. Therefore, to heal is to unite with those who are like |
| Tx:8.46 | You made only the decision to be unworthy of both. Yet you could not | make yourself unworthy, because you are the treasure of God. What He |
| Tx:8.48 | is] a contradiction in terms which actually leaves nothing. [You can | make yourself powerless only in a way that has no meaning at all.] |
| Tx:8.48 | imprison the mind of God's Son if they so choose. This choice does | make the Son's function unknown to him, but never to his Creator. And |
| Tx:8.51 | It cannot be described, and it cannot be explained. I can | make you aware of the conditions of truth, but the experience is of |
| Tx:8.75 | is to lose sight of the function of everything. A sick body does not | make any sense. It could not make sense, because sickness is not what |
| Tx:8.75 | of everything. A sick body does not make any sense. It could not | make sense, because sickness is not what the body is for. Sickness is |
| Tx:8.76 | is to collect data which are true. There is no point in trying to | make sense out of meaningless data. Any way you handle them results |
| Tx:8.85 | This is because the ego believes that mind is dangerous and that to | make mindless is to heal. But to make mindless is impossible since it |
| Tx:8.85 | that mind is dangerous and that to make mindless is to heal. But to | make mindless is impossible since it would mean to make nothing out |
| Tx:8.85 | to heal. But to make mindless is impossible since it would mean to | make nothing out of what God created. The ego despises weakness, even |
| Tx:8.93 | and perceive the Will of God there. His perception of this will can | make it real to you because He is in your mind and therefore He is |
| Tx:8.98 | giving you anything that does not come from God. His task is not to | make anything for you.] He cannot make you want something you do not |
| Tx:8.98 | come from God. His task is not to make anything for you.] He cannot | make you want something you do not want. When you ask the Universal |
| Tx:8.102 | is the law of its being. You cannot change laws you did not | make, and the laws of happiness were created for you, not by you. |
| Tx:8.104 | and therefore you have everything because you are real. You cannot | make the unreal, because the absence of reality is fearful, and fear |
| Tx:8.104 | fear is possible, you will not create. Opposing orders of reality | make reality meaningless, and reality is meaning. |
| Tx:8.105 | anxiety, depression, and ultimately panic, because you are trying to | make yourself unreal. When you feel these things, do not try to look |
| Tx:9.1 | The alertness of the ego to the errors which other egos | make is not the kind of vigilance the Holy Spirit would have you |
| Tx:9.6 | errors in anyone and to react to them as if they were real is to | make them real to you. You will not escape paying the price for this, |
| Tx:9.7 | cannot be separate, because it comes from love. Any attempt you | make to correct a brother means that you believe correction by you is |
| Tx:9.10 | beyond you. You do not know how to overlook errors, or you would not | make them. It would merely be further error to think either that you |
| Tx:9.10 | It would merely be further error to think either that you do not | make them or that you can correct them without a Guide to correction. |
| Tx:9.11 | ability. By reinterpreting the ability to attack, which you did | make, into the ability to share, He translates what you have made |
| Tx:9.13 | Many have tried to do this in my name, forgetting that my words | make perfect sense because they come from God. They are as sensible |
| Tx:9.13 | that is learned of me does not use fear to undo fear. Nor does it | make real the unreal and then destroy it. |
| Tx:9.21 | and this is why they are unreal. How, then, can “uncovering” them | make them real? Every healer who searches fantasies for truth must be |
| Tx:9.22 | a very fearful solution. Projecting condemnation onto God, they | make Him appear retaliative and fear His retribution. What they have |
| Tx:9.27 | The only meaningful contribution the therapist can | make is to present an example of one whose direction has been changed |
| Tx:9.48 | to its “protection.” Self-inflation [is the only offering it can | make. The grandiosity] of the ego is its alternative to the grandeur |
| Tx:9.50 | its own. We once said that the ego is aware of threat, but does not | make distinctions between two entirely different kinds of threat to |
| Tx:9.51 | with you unless you do not allow the ego to attack it. The ego will | make every effort to recover and mobilize its energies against your |
| Tx:9.52 | Yet your grandeur is not delusional, because you did not | make it. You have made grandiosity and are afraid of it because it is |
| Tx:9.59 | Nothing beyond yourself can | make you fearful or loving, because nothing is beyond you. Time and |
| Tx:9.60 | will establishes everything that happens to you. Every response you | make to everything you perceive is up to you, because your will |
| Tx:9.70 | is merely to restore to your mind what is already there. You do not | make what you remember; you merely accept again what has been made |
| Tx:9.73 | the complete havoc this makes of your peace of mind, you could not | make such an insane decision. You make it only because you still |
| Tx:9.73 | your peace of mind, you could not make such an insane decision. You | make it only because you still believe that it can get you something |
| Tx:9.74 | the destruction is no more real than the image, although those who | make idols do worship them. The idols are nothing, but their |
| Tx:9.80 | I have only one message, and it is true. Your faith in it will | make you whole when you have faith in me. |
| Tx:9.81 | before Him, or you will not hear. God is not jealous of the gods you | make, but you are. You would save them and serve them, because you |
| Tx:9.83 | be yours. It is your inheritance from your real Father. You cannot | make your father, and the father you made did not make you. Honor is |
| Tx:9.83 | Father. You cannot make your father, and the father you made did not | make you. Honor is not due to illusions, for to honor them is to |
| Tx:9.85 | he cannot be reconciled with God's Will. If you attack him, you will | make him real to you. But if you refuse to worship him in whatever |
| Tx:9.97 | It is because you did not | make yourselves that you need be troubled by nothing. Your gods are |
| Tx:9.97 | are nothing, because your Father did not create them. You cannot | make creators who are unlike your Creator any more than He could have |
| Tx:9.107 | what is timeless as real, you will begin to understand eternity and | make it yours. |
| Tx:10.2 | more than a delusional system in which you made your own father. | Make no mistake about this. It sounds insane when it is stated with |
| Tx:10.19 | Healing is a sign that he wants to | make whole. And this willingness opens his own ears to the Voice of |
| Tx:10.19 | healing you would undertake, for beside your small willingness to | make whole, He will lay His own complete will and make yours whole. |
| Tx:10.19 | willingness to make whole, He will lay His own complete will and | make yours whole. What can the Son of God not accomplish with the |
| Tx:10.32 | Could you try to | make God homeless and know that you are at home? Can the Son deny the |
| Tx:10.55 | this, and it is clearly not understandable, but the ego does | make every attempt to demonstrate it, and this it does constantly. |
| Tx:10.62 | is the Will of God, which knows no time and no exceptions. But | make no exceptions yourself, or you will not perceive what has been |
| Tx:10.71 | only this will lead you to the real Heaven because it will | make you capable of understanding it. |
| Tx:10.75 | understand what they perceive, and so they ask what it means. Do not | make the mistake of believing that you understand what you perceive, |
| Tx:10.77 | He gave you. Ask, then, for what is yours but which you did not | make, and do not defend yourself against truth. You made the problem |
| Tx:11.1 | You have been told not to | make error real, and the way to do this is very simple. If you want |
| Tx:11.1 | is very simple. If you want to believe in error, you would have to | make it real because it is not true. But truth is real in its own |
| Tx:11.16 | the sickness, there is but one remedy. You will be made whole as you | make whole, for to perceive in sickness the appeal for health is to |
| Tx:11.29 | To identify with the ego is to attack yourself and | make yourself poor. That is why everyone who identifies with the ego |
| Tx:11.46 | because a split mind has made itself a poor learner. You tried to | make the separation eternal because you wanted to retain the |
| Tx:11.49 | itself, what can you expect but confusion? The curriculum does not | make sense. |
| Tx:11.55 | of self-value come from the projection of loving thoughts outward. | Make the world real unto yourself, for the real world is the gift of |
| Tx:11.59 | interference, for the situations are identical. [Only the ability to | make this transfer is the product of learning.] As you perceive more |
| Tx:11.67 | is why you find what you seek. What you want in yourself, you will | make manifest by projection, and you will accept it from the world |
| Tx:11.69 | message you gave them. Love is recognized by its messengers. If you | make love manifest, its messengers will come to you because you |
| Tx:11.76 | of the Father unless He had also given it to you? When you learn to | make me manifest, you will never see death. For you will have looked |
| Tx:11.84 | take it from the hand of Christ and look upon it. Its reality will | make everything else invisible, for beholding it is total perception. |
| Tx:11.89 | shares the goal of all good teachers, whose ultimate aim is to | make themselves unnecessary by teaching their pupils all they know. |
| Tx:12.7 | are afraid of it. You have been told again and again that it will | make you free, yet you react as if it is trying to imprison you. Most |
| Tx:12.8 | You are afraid of redemption, and you believe it will kill you. | Make no mistake about the depth of your fear. For you believe that in |
| Tx:12.14 | You are afraid it would sweep you away from yourself and | make you little. For you believe that magnitude lies in defiance and |
| Tx:12.22 | To “single out” is to “make alone” and thus | make lonely. God did not do this to you. Could He set you apart, |
| Tx:12.33 | of sights which are not seen and sounds which are not heard. They | make up a private world which cannot be shared. For they are |
| Tx:12.41 | what denial does, for by it you accept insanity, believing you can | make a private world and rule your own perceptions. Yet for this, |
| Tx:12.48 | force continuity on them. You can perceive them as continuous and | make them so for you. But do not be deceived and then believe that |
| Tx:12.62 | strange world you made but do not want. The only effort you need | make to give this world away in glad exchange for what you did not |
| Tx:12.62 | make to give this world away in glad exchange for what you did not | make is willingness to learn the one you made is false. |
| Tx:12.70 | He has no investment in the things that He supplies except to | make certain that you will not use them on behalf of lingering in |
| Tx:13.5 | the world to see. For light must come into the darkened world to | make Christ's vision possible even here. Help Him to give His gift of |
| Tx:13.12 | Release from guilt is the ego's whole undoing. | Make no one fearful, for his guilt is yours, and by obeying the ego's |
| Tx:13.13 | you hold as dear, you think is yours. The power of your valuing will | make it so. |
| Tx:13.15 | The idea that the guiltless Son of God can attack himself and | make himself guilty is insane. In any form, in anyone, believe this |
| Tx:13.16 | the conviction of your own guilt. If you would have the Holy Spirit | make you free of it, accept His offer of Atonement for all your |
| Tx:13.27 | Now it is given you to heal and teach, to | make what will be now. As yet it is not now. The Son of God believes |
| Tx:13.34 | Praise be unto you who | make the Father one with His own Son. Alone we are all lowly, but |
| Tx:13.38 | perfect faith in your final judgment because He knows that He will | make it for you. To doubt this would be to doubt that His mission |
| Tx:13.44 | throughout eternity. You do not have to know that Heaven is yours to | make it so. It is so. Yet the Will of God must be accepted as your |
| Tx:13.54 | peculiar learning goal depends means absolutely nothing. It does | make sense to you. |
| Tx:13.55 | believed that nothing can be precious and that you can learn how to | make the untrue true. |
| Tx:13.57 | The simple and the obvious are not apparent to those who would | make palaces and royal robes of nothing, believing they are kings |
| Tx:13.58 | nothing else is real, and everything beside it is not there. Let Me | make the one distinction for you which you cannot make but need to |
| Tx:13.58 | not there. Let Me make the one distinction for you which you cannot | make but need to learn. Your faith in nothing is deceiving you. Offer |
| Tx:13.59 | Like you, the Holy Spirit did not | make truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He brings the light of |
| Tx:13.60 | the easiest. Learn to be happy learners. You will never learn how to | make nothing everything. Yet see that this has been your goal and |
| Tx:13.66 | There is no compromise that you can | make with guilt and escape the pain which only guiltlessness allays. |
| Tx:13.67 | What I experience, I will | make manifest. If I am guiltless, I have nothing to fear. I choose to |
| Tx:13.69 | by holding it against you. Whether he does this or does it not will | make no difference; you will think he does. It is impossible to offer |
| Tx:13.71 | lesson is merely this: guiltlessness is invulnerability. Therefore, | make your invulnerability manifest to everyone, and teach him that |
| Tx:13.73 | Whenever you decide to | make decisions for yourself, you are thinking destructively, and the |
| Tx:13.73 | the concept of decision which led to it. It is not true that you can | make decisions by yourself or for yourself alone. No thought of God's |
| Tx:13.75 | It will never happen that you will have to | make decisions for yourself. You are not bereft of help, and Help |
| Tx:13.75 | will simply offer it to you? He will never ask what you have done to | make you worthy of the gift of God. Ask it not therefore of |
| Tx:13.76 | his own. You know not of salvation, for you do not understand it. | Make no decisions about what it is or where it lies, but ask of the |
| Tx:13.78 | it for you. He has not forgotten it. Forget Him not, and He will | make every decision for you, for your salvation, and the peace of God |
| Tx:13.86 | you will see the Atonement in him. For by proclaiming it in him, you | make it yours, and you will see what you sought. You will not see the |
| Tx:13.89 | would be meaningful to you. God breaks no barriers; neither did He | make them. When you release them, they are gone. God will not fail |
| Tx:13.91 | Before you | make any decisions for yourself, remember that you have decided |
| Tx:13.91 | your function in Heaven and consider carefully whether you want to | make decisions here. Your function here is only to decide against |
| Tx:13.92 | along a quiet path in summer. Only your own volition seems to | make deciding hard. The Holy Spirit will not delay at all in |
| Tx:14.2 | Your task is not to | make reality. It is here without your making, but not without you. |
| Tx:14.19 | away because, when they are brought together, the truth of one must | make the falsity of its opposite perfectly clear. Keep not guilt and |
| Tx:14.21 | to communicate through not communicating holds enough of love to | make it meaningful if its interpreter is not its maker. You who made |
| Tx:14.30 | request He enters gladly. He brings the light to darkness if you | make the darkness open to Him. But what you hide He cannot look upon. |
| Tx:14.36 | There is no substitute for truth. And truth will | make this plain to you as you are brought into the place where you |
| Tx:14.38 | The Atonement does not | make holy. You were created holy. It merely brings unholiness to |
| Tx:14.44 | shining in you, can bring to all the world, you could not wait to | make the mirror of your mind clean to receive the image of the |
| Tx:14.52 | —one of love and the other the call for love. You cannot safely | make this division, for you are much too confused either to recognize |
| Tx:14.67 | you can depend for miracles has been provided for you. God's Son can | make no needs His Father will not meet if he but turn to Him ever so |
| Tx:14.67 | by seeing His Son as he always was and not as he would | make himself. The miracle brings the effects which only guiltlessness |
| Tx:14.68 | that the guidance of the Holy Spirit is limited. Thus would you | make Him undependable and use this fancied undependability as an |
| Tx:14.74 | to everyone who perceives the need for peace and who would have it. | Make way for peace, and it will come. For understanding is in you, |
| Tx:15.8 | only the present, uses it to undo the fear by which the ego would | make the present useless. There is no escape from fear in the ego's |
| Tx:15.13 | blessed instant of freedom to all who are enslaved by time and thus | make time their friend for them. The Holy Spirit gives their blessed |
| Tx:15.24 | sought and found littleness, remember this: Every decision which you | make stems from what you think you are and represents the value that |
| Tx:15.26 | The power of God will support every effort you | make on behalf of His dear Son. Search for the little, and you deny |

| Tx:15.27 | to deny His magnitude and make His Son hostage to the ego cannot | make little whom God has joined with Him. Every decision you make is |
| Tx:15.27 | cannot make little whom God has joined with Him. Every decision you | make is for Heaven or for hell and will bring you awareness of what |
| Tx:15.32 | more can you. When you have learned to accept what you are, you will | make no more gifts to offer to yourselves, for you will know you are |
| Tx:15.39 | the time in which the holy instant will be yours. I call to you to | make the holy instant yours at once, for the release from littleness |
| Tx:15.42 | then the Holy Spirit's readiness to give it to you is not enough to | make it yours, for you are not ready to share it with Him. And it |
| Tx:15.44 | awareness to the readiness for purity He offers you. Thus will He | make you ready to acknowledge that you are host to God and hostage to |
| Tx:15.45 | the past, for without it you do not understand anything. You would | make no attempt to judge because it would be quite apparent to you |
| Tx:15.46 | of the Sonship is to bring guilt into your relationships and thus | make them unreal. If you seek to separate out certain aspects of the |
| Tx:15.52 | no one is special, for your personal needs intrude on no one to | make them different. Without the values from the past, you would see |
| Tx:15.56 | as long as you accept the possibility, and cherish it, that you can | make a brother what he is not because you would have him so. |
| Tx:15.69 | of savagery belongs not around the chosen host of God, who cannot | make himself host to the ego. In the name of his release, and in the |
| Tx:15.69 | will look at them, you will offer them gladly to Him. What He can | make of them, you do not know, but you will become willing to find |
| Tx:15.70 | recognizes that no one could interpret direct attack as love. Yet to | make guilty is direct attack but does not seem to be. For the guilty |
| Tx:15.74 | love and must be anger. All anger is nothing more than an attempt to | make someone feel guilty, and this attempt is the only basis which |
| Tx:15.75 | He communicate with you while you believe that to communicate is to | make yourself alone? It is clearly insane to believe that by |
| Tx:15.85 | to learn just what this shift entails, so you will become willing to | make it permanent. Given this willingness, it will not leave you, for |
| Tx:15.86 | are nothing more than attempts to limit communication and thereby to | make it impossible. For communication must be unlimited in order to |
| Tx:15.88 | Limits are demanded by the ego, representing its demands to | make little and ineffectual. Limit your vision of a brother to his |
| Tx:15.94 | of it, you have offered it to everyone. It is in your power to | make this season holy, for it is in your power to make the time of |
| Tx:15.94 | in your power to make this season holy, for it is in your power to | make the time of Christ be now. |
| Tx:15.95 | you think you have, and the decision which you believe that you must | make. |
| Tx:15.97 | ego will never let you perceive this, since this recognition would | make it homeless. For when this recognition dawns clearly, you will |
| Tx:15.99 | for it is an invader who but seems to offer kindness, but always to | make the sacrifice complete. |
| Tx:15.110 | all that you would accomplish. Nothing will be lacking, and you will | make complete and not destroy. Say and understand this: |
| Tx:15.112 | take your place, so long left unfulfilled, in the Great Awakening. | Make this year different by making it all the same. And let all your |
| Tx:16.2 | itself and would increase itself by sharing what is like itself.] | Make no mistake about this maneuver; the ego always empathizes to |
| Tx:16.3 | there is nothing there that you would keep. Do not use empathy to | make the past real and so perpetuate it. Step gently aside and let |
| Tx:16.27 | This year you will begin to learn and | make learning commensurate with teaching. You have chosen this by |
| Tx:16.28 | by the strength of Heaven and by the united will of all who | make Heaven what it is, being joined within it. And so the one who |
| Tx:16.30 | and out of sight. It is essential to bring it into sight and to | make no attempt to hide it. For it is the attempt to balance hate |
| Tx:16.36 | it is nothing more than an attempt] to bring love into fear and | make it real in fear. In fundamental violation of love's condition, |
| Tx:16.43 | Whatever form they take, they are always an attack on the self to | make the other guilty. We have spoken of this before, but there are |
| Tx:16.44 | Very simply, the attempt to | make guilty is always directed against God. For the ego would have |
| Tx:16.49 | in the special relationship. This “self” seeks the relationship to | make itself complete. Yet when it finds the special relationship in |
| Tx:16.51 | the perception of the giving of specialness as an act of love would | make love hateful. And the real purpose of the special relationship, |
| Tx:16.56 | extent you are denying truth, and so are making yourself unable to | make the simple choice between truth and illusion, God and fantasy. |
| Tx:16.58 | possible, and they are totally unreal. This year is thus the time to | make the easiest decision that ever confronted you and also the only |
| Tx:16.58 | the other side and nothing at all is here. It is impossible not to | make the natural decision as this is realized. |
| Tx:16.71 | is experienced in the present. Shades of the past envelop it and | make it what it is. It has no meaning in the present, and if it means |
| Tx:17.5 | itself. When you try to bring truth to illusions, you are trying to | make illusions real and keep them by justifying your belief in them. |
| Tx:17.14 | based not on your selection. For the shadow figures you would | make immortal are “enemies” of reality. Be willing to forgive the Son |
| Tx:17.15 | should enter into unholy alliances which support the ego's goals and | make your relationships the witness to its power. It is these shadow |
| Tx:17.15 | the witness to its power. It is these shadow figures which would | make the ego holy in your sight and teach you what you do to keep it |
| Tx:17.16 | and of yourself. This is why you see in both what is not there and | make of both the slaves of vengeance. And why whatever reminds you of |
| Tx:17.16 | this. But what you do not realize are all the reasons which go to | make the relationship unholy. For unholiness seeks to reinforce |
| Tx:17.21 | The Holy Spirit wills only to | make His resolutions complete and perfect, and so He seeks and finds |
| Tx:17.22 | if you but let Him hold the spark before you to light your way and | make it clear to you. God's Son is one. Whom God has joined as one, |
| Tx:17.27 | God established His relationship with you to | make you happy, and nothing you do which does not share His purpose |
| Tx:17.27 | with you, the function of relationships became forever “to | make happy.” And nothing else. To fulfill this function, you relate |
| Tx:17.28 | In this world it is impossible to create, yet it is possible to | make happy. We have said repeatedly that the Holy Spirit would not |
| Tx:17.28 | them by God. The function you have given them is clearly not to | make happy. But the holy relationship shares God's purpose, rather |
| Tx:17.28 | the holy relationship shares God's purpose, rather than aiming to | make a substitute for it. Every special relationship which you have |
| Tx:17.33 | the frame without the picture you cannot have. Defenses operate to | make you think you can. |
| Tx:17.45 | your goal was all that seemed to give it meaning. Now it seems to | make no sense. Many relationships have been broken off at this point, |
| Tx:17.46 | For the relationship has not as yet been changed sufficiently to | make its former goal completely without attraction, and its structure |
| Tx:17.50 | let it be explained to you as you perceive its purpose work in it to | make it holy. You will find many opportunities to blame each other |
| Tx:17.53 | you find yourselves. And by this lack of thanks and gratitude, you | make yourselves unable to express the holy instant, and thus you lose |
| Tx:17.54 | and shared. To attack each other is not to lose the instant but to | make it powerless in its effects. You have received the holy instant, |
| Tx:17.55 | has been accepted and the means as they stand now which seems to | make you suffer, but which makes Heaven glad. If Heaven were outside |
| Tx:17.57 | of the Holy Spirit's goal is general. Now He will work with you to | make it specific [for application is specific]. There are certain |
| Tx:17.59 | which to bring the means in line. And now the only judgment left to | make is whether or not the ego likes it—is it acceptable, or does |
| Tx:17.60 | happen is simply that you will perceive the situation as a means to | make it happen. You will therefore make every effort to overlook what |
| Tx:17.60 | the situation as a means to make it happen. You will therefore | make every effort to overlook what interferes with the accomplishment |
| Tx:17.64 | problem elsewhere is to keep it. For you remove yourself from it and | make it unsolvable. |
| Tx:17.65 | not solve. There is no shift in any aspect of the problem but will | make solution impossible. For if you shift part of the problem |
| Tx:17.66 | then becomes the justification for your lack of faith. You will | make this error, but be not at all concerned with that. The error |
| Tx:17.70 | to the universe that lies beyond them, your little faithlessness can | make it useless if you would use the faithlessness instead. |
| Tx:17.76 | Would you not want to | make a holy instant of every situation? For such is the gift of |
| Tx:18.7 | they have in common and nothing else. Yet what else is necessary to | make them all the same? |
| Tx:18.14 | solely around what you would have preferred. Here, you are “free” to | make over whatever seemed to attack you and change it into a tribute |
| Tx:18.16 | upon you. For a time, it seems as if the world were given you, to | make it what you will. You do not realize that you are attacking it, |
| Tx:18.16 | not realize that you are attacking it, trying to triumph over it and | make it serve you. |
| Tx:18.18 | Dreams show you that you have the power to | make a world as you would have it be, and that because you want it, |
| Tx:18.18 | you. It is the figures in the dream and what they do that seem to | make the dream. You do not realize that you are making them act out |
| Tx:18.19 | Your wish to | make another world that is not real remains with you. And what you |
| Tx:18.19 | [has a special place. It is the means by which you try to | make your sleeping dreams come true. From this you do not awaken. The |
| Tx:18.20 | it away from you. [But He does use it differently, as a help to | make His purpose real to you.] Your special relationship will remain, |
| Tx:18.22 | take hold to close your eyes. It is not strange that dreams can | make a world that is unreal. The wish to make it is incredible. Your |
| Tx:18.22 | not strange that dreams can make a world that is unreal. The wish to | make it is incredible. Your relationship has become one in which the |
| Tx:18.30 | instant to which you brought it. We are made whole in our desire to | make whole. Let not time worry you, for all the fear that you |
| Tx:18.31 | into darkness and forward unto God to shine away the past and so | make room for His eternal Presence, in which everything is radiant in |
| Tx:18.32 | It is He who adds the greatness and the might. He joins with you to | make the holy instant far greater than you can understand. It is your |
| Tx:18.34 | of it. And what is this but the determination to be as you would | make yourself? God did not create His dwelling-place unworthy of Him. |
| Tx:18.35 | that it is needful to prepare yourself for Him. It is impossible to | make arrogant preparations for holiness and not believe that it is up |
| Tx:18.35 | willingness for what they are. Your willingness is needed only to | make it possible to teach you what they are. If you maintain you are |
| Tx:18.35 | this, you are interfering with the lesson by believing that you | make the learner different. You did not make the learner, nor can you |
| Tx:18.35 | lesson by believing that you make the learner different. You did not | make the learner, nor can you make him different. Would you first |
| Tx:18.35 | the learner different. You did not make the learner, nor can you | make him different. Would you first make a miracle yourself and then |
| Tx:18.35 | make the learner, nor can you make him different. Would you first | make a miracle yourself and then expect one to be made for you? |
| Tx:18.36 | as it is given. In preparing for the holy instant, do not attempt to | make yourself holy to be ready to receive it. That is but to confuse |
| Tx:18.36 | only to those who offer it nothing more than simple willingness to | make way for it. Purification is of God alone and therefore for you. |
| Tx:18.37 | in me created it as He would have it be. It is not needful that I | make it ready for Him, but only that I do not interfere with His plan |
| Tx:18.38 | plan for the escape from guilt has been to bring Atonement to it and | make salvation fearful. And it is only fear that you will add if you |
| Tx:18.39 | It is this that makes the holy instant so easy and so natural. You | make it difficult because you insist there must be more that you need |
| Tx:18.40 | Forget not that it has been your decision to | make everything that is natural and easy for you impossible. What you |
| Tx:18.42 | with His understanding, He will build your part in the Atonement and | make sure that you fulfill it easily. And with Him you will build a |
| Tx:18.45 | by accepting it for you, and nothing will be wanting that would | make of it what He would have it be. |
| Tx:18.51 | and let it not know its identity. Mind cannot attack, but it can | make fantasies and direct the body to act them out. Yet it is never |
| Tx:18.53 | be sick, but project not this upon the body. For your wish to | make destructive what cannot destroy can have no real effect at all. |
| Tx:18.53 | created is only what He would have it be, being His Will. You cannot | make His Will destructive. You can make fantasies in which your will |
| Tx:18.53 | it be, being His Will. You cannot make His Will destructive. You can | make fantasies in which your will conflicts with His, but that is all. |
| Tx:18.54 | do with what the body does. It does not dream of them, and they but | make it a liability where it could be an asset. For fantasies have |
| Tx:18.57 | to create differently and to have separated Himself from His Son to | make this possible. He would have had to create different things and |
| Tx:18.63 | much faith in the body as a source of strength. What plans do you | make that do not involve its comfort or protection or enjoyment in |
| Tx:18.64 | You have made much progress and are really trying to | make still more, but there is one thing you have never done—not for |
| Tx:18.65 | but never experienced just now. Only its past and future | make it seem real. Time controls it entirely, for sin is never |
| Tx:18.66 | fighting against sin. [Enormous effort is expended in the attempt to | make holy what is hated and despised.] Nor is a lifetime of |
| Tx:18.69 | need do nothing has no need for time. To do nothing is to rest and | make a place within you where the activity of the body ceases to |
| Tx:18.89 | is real. For the reality of guilt is the illusion which seems to | make it heavy and opaque, impenetrable, and a real foundation for the |
| Tx:18.91 | bring to it, you do not confuse it with the world below, nor seek to | make it real. |
| Tx:18.93 | Here is your innocence, waiting to clothe you and protect you and | make you ready for the final step in the journey inward. Here are the |
| Tx:18.94 | Yet even forgiveness is not the end. Forgiveness does | make lovely, but it does not create. It is the source of healing, but |
| Tx:19.2 | the Holy Spirit and releasing him from every demand your ego would | make of him. Thus do you see him free, and in this vision does the |
| Tx:19.2 | Him in a united purpose which makes this purpose real because you | make it whole. And this is healing. The body is healed because you |
| Tx:19.3 | The body cannot heal because it cannot | make itself sick. It needs no healing. Its health or sickness depends |
| Tx:19.5 | always limit and attack; faith would remove all limitations and | make whole. [Faithlessness would destroy and separate; faith would |
| Tx:19.15 | Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy garden which He would | make of it. For faith brings peace, and so it calls on truth to enter |
| Tx:19.15 | of it. For faith brings peace, and so it calls on truth to enter and | make lovely what has already been prepared for loveliness. Truth |
| Tx:19.16 | be to the eternal and learn how not to interfere with it and | make it slave to time. For what you think you do to the eternal you |
| Tx:19.19 | he can do that would really change his reality in any way nor | make him really guilty. That is what sin would do, for such is its |
| Tx:19.24 | than mistaken. Yet think you carefully before you allow yourself to | make this choice. Approach it not lightly, for it is the choice of |
| Tx:19.28 | unanswered? In time the Holy Spirit clearly sees the Son of God can | make mistakes. On this you share His vision. Yet you do not share His |
| Tx:19.40 | from which it gently reaches out but never leaving you. If you would | make it homeless, how can it abide within the Son of God? If it would |
| Tx:19.58 | that you would have calls upon pain to fill your meager store and | make your lives complete. This is completion, as the ego sees it. For |
| Tx:19.60 | deny a home to peace. This “sacrifice” you feel to be too great to | make, too much to ask of you. |
| Tx:19.73 | if he but understood he sends them to himself? Who would accuse, | make guilty, and condemn himself? |
| Tx:19.89 | of sin and death nor use it for destruction. Teach me how not to | make of it an obstacle to peace but let You use it for me to |
| Tx:19.91 | Him and to join with Him at last. For this dark veil, which seems to | make the face of Christ Himself like to a leper's and the bright rays |
| Tx:19.99 | purpose is still meaningless, and even when it is over, it seems to | make no sense. How can you know that it is over unless you realize |
| Tx:19.99 | you choose whether to look upon it or wander on, only to return and | make the choice again. |
| Tx:19.102 | savior stands beside each one. Let him be what he is and seek not to | make of love an enemy. |
| Tx:19.106 | you and me together that we might meet here in this holy place and | make the same decision. |
| Tx:20.5 | offerings made for its pleasure and remember all these were made to | make seem lovely what you hate. Would you employ this hated thing to |
| Tx:20.17 | ego's fixed belief that all relationships depend upon adjustments to | make of them what it would have them be. Direct relationships, in |
| Tx:20.18 | asked a question, and it was what they saw that answered them. You | make the world and then adjust to it, and it to you. Nor is there any |
| Tx:20.21 | innocence in it. They did not tell it what it was; they did not | make adjustments to fit their orders. They gently questioned it and |
| Tx:20.22 | belief that made it as you see it is not outside you. Seek not to | make the Son of God adjust to his insanity. There is a stranger in |
| Tx:20.24 | that it gave you, and you have given it power to adjust the world to | make its answer true. You asked this puff of madness for the meaning |
| Tx:20.24 | and adjusted it according to its insane answer. How happy did it | make you? Did you meet with joy to bless the Son of God and give him |
| Tx:20.30 | Your insane laws were made to guarantee that you would | make mistakes and give them power over you by accepting their results |
| Tx:20.47 | Idols accept, but never | make return. They can be loved, but cannot love. They do not |
| Tx:20.50 | You cannot | make the body the Holy Spirit's temple, and it will never be the seat |
| Tx:20.60 | you, and not the means. Remember this, for otherwise you will | make the error of believing the means are difficult. Yet how can they |
| Tx:20.62 | The body is the means by which the ego tries to | make the unholy relationship seem real. The unholy instant is the |
| Tx:20.66 | what he sees is free of condemnation. And what he sees he did not | make, for it was given him to see, as was the vision which made his |
| Tx:20.68 | in what is yours but for the asking and think not that you need | make either means or end. All this is given you who would but see |
| Tx:20.71 | the perfect choice to call upon for strength? Judgment will seem to | make your savior weak. Yet it is you who need his strength. There is |
| Tx:21.9 | with you, not for themselves, but as a soft reminder of what would | make you weep if you remembered how dear it was to you. You could |
| Tx:21.18 | not its weakness. You must perceive that what is strong enough to | make a world can let it go and can accept correction if it is willing |
| Tx:21.21 | what must forever be. This is the statement that he has the power to | make God powerless and so to take it for himself and leave himself |
| Tx:21.22 | otherwise must therefore seem unreal. All that is asked of you is to | make room for truth. You are not asked to make or do what lies beyond |
| Tx:21.22 | that is asked of you is to make room for truth. You are not asked to | make or do what lies beyond your understanding. All you are asked to |
| Tx:21.24 | that wishful thinking is how the ego deals with what it wants to | make it so. There is no better demonstration of the power of wanting, |
| Tx:21.24 | demonstration of the power of wanting, and therefore of faith, to | make its goals seem real and possible. Faith in the unreal leads to |
| Tx:21.24 | and possible. Faith in the unreal leads to adjustments of reality to | make it fit the goal of madness. The goal of sin induces the |
| Tx:21.24 | it by not realizing all the adjustments you have introduced to | make it so. |
| Tx:21.25 | The purpose now becomes to keep obscure the cause of the effect and | make effect appear to be a cause. This seeming independence of effect |
| Tx:21.26 | you made yourself. For if you think the world you made has power to | make you what it wills, you are confusing Son and Father, effect and |
| Tx:21.29 | And that is why the Holy Spirit must change its purpose to | make it useful to Him and harmless unto you. |
| Tx:21.59 | error of any kind deceives you about the power that is in you to | make correction. If it can correct and you allow it not to do so, you |
| Tx:21.59 | damned. This you could spare him and yourself. For reason would not | make way for correction in you alone. |
| Tx:21.63 | But madness has a purpose and believes it also has the means to | make its purpose real. To see the body as a barrier between what |
| Tx:21.65 | any instant serves to bring complete correction of his errors and | make him whole. The instant that you choose to let yourself be |
| Tx:21.71 | enemy? And what can they do but envy him his power and by their envy | make themselves afraid of it? These are the dark ones, silent and |
| Tx:21.71 | to wage their war of vengeance, bitterness, and spite on him to | make him one with them. Because they do not know that they are one |
| Tx:22.1 | yet believed by each to be within himself. And each one seems to | make a different error, and one the other cannot understand. |
| Tx:22.6 | you that the world you see through eyes which are not yours must | make no sense to you. To whom would vision such as this send back its |
| Tx:22.12 | brothers. This child will teach you what you do not understand and | make it plain. For his will be no alien tongue. He will need no |
| Tx:22.17 | and seek another is hardly an escape. To change illusions is to | make no change. The search for joy in misery is senseless, for how |
| Tx:22.17 | Yet to perceive a difference where none exists will surely fail to | make a difference. |
| Tx:22.20 | Both reason and the ego will tell you this, but what they | make of it is not the same. The ego will assure you now that it is |
| Tx:22.20 | this another way, for reason sees the source of an idea as what will | make it true or false. This must be so if the idea is like its |
| Tx:22.24 | if it were possible the Son of God could leave his Father's Mind, | make himself different, and oppose His Will, would it be possible |
| Tx:22.25 | that what you made is yours. You would condemn His joy to misery and | make Him different. And all the misery you made has been your own. |
| Tx:22.29 | for them to co-exist in your awareness. And reason's goal is to | make plain and therefore obvious. You can see reason. This is not a |
| Tx:22.30 | Share this belief, and reason will be unable to see your errors and | make way for their correction. For reason sees through errors, |
| Tx:22.32 | a special form the ego venerates. It would preserve all errors and | make them sins. For here is its own stability, its heavy anchor in |
| Tx:22.38 | matters. It can no longer serve. No one who reaches this far can | make the wrong decision, but he can delay. And there is no part of |
| Tx:22.39 | you have chosen, although you still may think you can go back and | make the other choice. This is not so. A choice made with the power |
| Tx:22.42 | Every mistake you | make the other will gently have corrected for you, for in his sight |
| Tx:22.51 | be found. He will believe it possible of mind or body, and he will | make the other serve his choice as means to find it. |
| Tx:22.59 | Him the tiny gifts He can extend forever. He will take each one and | make of it a potent force for peace. He will withhold no blessing |
| Tx:22.59 | any way. He will join to it all the power that God has given Him to | make each little gift of love a source of healing for everyone. Each |
| Tx:23.9 | the ego, or yourself and it, will ever meet. You seem to meet and | make your strange alliances on grounds that have no meaning. For your |
| Tx:23.11 | Could nature possibly establish this and | make it true? Nor is it up to you to say what shall be part of you |
| Tx:23.12 | against yourself is but the battle of two illusions, struggling to | make them different from each other in the belief the one which |
| Tx:23.14 | you could attack that is not part of you. And by attacking it, you | make two illusions of yourself in conflict with each other. And this |
| Tx:23.19 | it be understood what they are for, because it is their purpose to | make meaningless and to attack the truth. Here are the laws that rule |
| Tx:23.22 | Sin cannot be remitted, being the belief the Son of God can | make mistakes for which his own destruction becomes inevitable. |
| Tx:23.24 | This leads directly to the third preposterous belief that seems to | make chaos eternal. For if God cannot be mistaken, then He must |
| Tx:23.31 | which your “sanity” appears to rest.] These are the principles which | make the ground beneath your feet seem solid. And it is here you look |
| Tx:23.33 | the savior from salvation. How lovely do the laws of fear | make death appear! Give thanks unto the hero on love's throne, who |
| Tx:23.36 | upon a skeleton, dress it in loveliness, pet it and pamper it, and | make it live? And can you be content with an illusion that you are |
| Tx:23.42 | for God speaks through you to your brother? The wrapping does not | make the gift you give. An empty box, however beautiful and gently |
| Tx:23.43 | still be different, and yet the same remain intact as one. Does this | make sense? Can it be understood? |
| Tx:23.50 | the Holy Spirit understand how to increase your little gifts and | make them mighty. Also He understands how your relationship is raised |
| Tx:23.52 | When the temptation to attack rises to | make your mind darkened and murderous, remember you can see the |
| Tx:23.55 | upholding him could find the choice of miracles or murder hard to | make? |
| Tx:24.2 | is neutral. Every one has the power to dictate each decision you | make. For a decision is a conclusion based on everything that you |
| Tx:24.6 | ones feel weak and frail because of differences, for what would | make them special is their enemy. Yet they protect its enmity and |
| Tx:24.7 | of what you are and what your brother is. And here is what must | make the body dear and worth preserving. Specialness must be |
| Tx:24.12 | whom it thus diminishes would be your savior, had you not chosen to | make of him a tiny measure of your specialness instead. Against the |
| Tx:24.19 | as yours to have it. Let him forgive you all your specialness and | make you whole in mind and one with him. He waits for your |
| Tx:24.20 | not illusions which have reached this final obstacle that seems to | make God and His Heaven so remote that they cannot be reached. Here |
| Tx:24.22 | What is the same as God is one with Him. And only specialness could | make the truth of God and you as one seem anything but Heaven and the |
| Tx:24.27 | your enemy, not God's. So does it seem to split you off from God and | make you separate from Him as its defender. You would protect what |
| Tx:24.30 | could they will the death of love itself? Yet they are powerless to | make attack upon illusions. They are not bodies; as One mind they |
| Tx:24.32 | call that would awaken them, and they curse God because He did not | make their dream reality. Curse God and die, but not by Him Who made |
| Tx:24.35 | makes it frail and helpless in its own defense. It was conceived to | make you frail and helpless. The goal of separation is its curse. Yet |
| Tx:24.36 | must it be that harmful purpose hurts the mind as one. Nothing could | make less sense to specialness. Nothing could make more sense to |
| Tx:24.36 | as one. Nothing could make less sense to specialness. Nothing could | make more sense to miracles. For miracles are merely change of |
| Tx:24.64 | instead? How can you fail to know it is in his holiness? Seek not to | make your specialness the truth, for if it were, you would be lost |
| Tx:24.67 | means. Not till you go past learning to the Given; not till you | make again a holy home for your creations is it understood. |
| Tx:24.70 | Here is an image that you want to be yourself. It is the means to | make your wish come true. It gives the eyes with which you look on |
| Tx:24.72 | not bound to specialness but by your choice. And it is given you to | make a different choice and use perception for a different purpose. |
| Tx:25.2 | they are He cannot be. And so they carry Him unknowingly and do not | make Him manifest. And thus they do not recognize Him where He is. |
| Tx:25.8 | mad desire to be separate, different, and special, to the Christ, to | make the oneness clear to what is really one. In this world, this is |
| Tx:25.13 | of success at all. To place your hopes where no hope lies must | make you hopeless. Yet is this hopelessness your choice, while you |
| Tx:25.14 | giving up the hopeless and unrewarding task you set yourself. Can it | make sense to hold the fixed belief that there is reason to uphold |
| Tx:25.17 | Him and with His masterpiece. This is its purpose, and you do not | make the frame into the picture when you choose to see it in its |
| Tx:25.20 | do but offer thanks to you who love His Son as He does? Would He not | make known to you His love if you but share His praise of what He |
| Tx:25.20 | completed. Not one ray of darkness can be seen by those who will to | make their Father's happiness complete and theirs along with His. The |
| Tx:25.25 | wage its wars, the perfect shelter for the illusions which it would | make real. Not one but it upholds in its perception; not one but can |
| Tx:25.31 | he be saved or damned? Forgetting not that what he is to you will | make this choice your future? For you make it now, the instant when |
| Tx:25.31 | that what he is to you will make this choice your future? For you | make it now, the instant when all time becomes a means to reach a |
| Tx:25.31 | it now, the instant when all time becomes a means to reach a goal. | Make then your choice. But recognize that in this choice the purpose |
| Tx:25.46 | finds his special function and fulfills the part assigned to him to | make himself complete within a world where incompletion rules. |
| Tx:25.47 | do not prevail in perfect form, can he yet do one perfect thing and | make one perfect choice. And by this act of special faithfulness to |
| Tx:25.49 | you made can serve salvation easily and well. The Son of God can | make no choice the Holy Spirit cannot employ on his behalf and not |
| Tx:25.50 | is death. And so it is. For sin is a request for death, a wish to | make this world's foundation sure as love, dependable as Heaven, and |
| Tx:25.51 | as is God's Will for life. Nor can the basis of a world He did not | make be firm and sure as Heaven. How could it be that hell and Heaven |
| Tx:25.52 | true, then all beliefs the world gives any meaning to are false and | make no sense at all. This is the choice you make. Do not attempt to |
| Tx:25.52 | to are false and make no sense at all. This is the choice you | make. Do not attempt to see it differently nor twist it into |
| Tx:25.52 | twist it into something it is not. For only this decision can you | make. The rest is up to God and not to you. |
| Tx:25.55 | And each reflects a view of what the Father and the Son must be to | make that viewpoint meaningful and sane. |
| Tx:25.62 | all temptation is but this—a mad belief that God's insanity would | make you sane and give you what you want. That either God or you must |
| Tx:25.87 | that giving and receiving are the same. Because it does not | make the same unlike, it sees no differences where none exist. And |
| Tx:26.4 | song of union and of love be heard at all. Yet is it given him to | make the world recede before his song and sight of him replace the |
| Tx:26.6 | You can lose sight of oneness, but can not | make sacrifice of its reality. Nor can you lose what you would |
| Tx:26.6 | is given him to witness to that you may see it and rejoice with him. | Make not his holiness a sacrifice to your belief in sin. You |
| Tx:26.7 | light in you be blotted out because he sees it not. You who would | make a sacrifice of life and make your eyes and ears bear witness to |
| Tx:26.7 | because he sees it not. You who would make a sacrifice of life and | make your eyes and ears bear witness to the death of God and of His |
| Tx:26.7 | death of God and of His holy Son, think not that you have power to | make of them what God willed not they be. In Heaven God's Son is not |
| Tx:26.8 | the reach of any sacrifice of life or death. For neither did he | make, and only one was given him by One Who knows His gifts can never |
| Tx:26.8 | injustices the world would lay upon him. Could it be that you could | make his sins reality and sacrifice his Father's Will for him? |
| Tx:26.11 | the form it seems to take, is a demand that someone suffer loss and | make a sacrifice that you might gain. And when the situation is |
| Tx:26.21 | to him must be brought to the last comparison that he will ever | make, the last evaluation that will be possible, the final judgment |
| Tx:26.21 | and what is different remain unclear. The one essential thing to | make a choice at all is this distinction. And herein lies the |
| Tx:26.22 | salvation. Heaven was never lost and so cannot be saved. Yet who can | make a choice between the wish for Heaven and the wish for hell |
| Tx:26.22 | is to teach what is the same and what is different, leaving room to | make the only choice which can be made. |
| Tx:26.24 | the ability to give up all attempts to choose between them and to | make them different. [How simple is the choice between two things so |
| Tx:26.28 | What other miracle is there but this? And what else need there be to | make the space between you disappear? |
| Tx:26.34 | The tiny instant you would keep and | make eternal passed away in Heaven too soon for anything to notice it |
| Tx:26.34 | to be your teacher. Only in the past—an ancient past, too short to | make a world in answer to creation—did this world appear to rise. |
| Tx:26.44 | and harm, in sacrifice and death has come to you. For no one can | make one illusion real and still escape the rest. For who can choose |
| Tx:26.46 | you but realized its emptiness has left yours empty and unoccupied? | Make no illusion friend, for if you do, it can but take the place of |
| Tx:26.46 | are not of this world, and only He to whom they have been given can | make sure that you receive them. He will place them on your throne |
| Tx:26.46 | that you receive them. He will place them on your throne when you | make room for Him on His. |
| Tx:26.53 | gives meaning where no meaning is. And truth needs no defense to | make it true. Illusions have no witnesses and no effects. Who looks |
| Tx:26.60 | is truly willed, because the mind can wish to be deceived but cannot | make it be what it is not. And to believe ideas can leave their |
| Tx:26.61 | and escape from guilt. For otherwise he still demands that he must | make some sacrifice and thus denies that everything is his, unlimited |
| Tx:26.65 | it used is natural. It is not arrogant to be as He created you or to | make use of what He gave to answer all His Son's mistakes and set him |
| Tx:26.67 | when He has already answered all who call on Him? A miracle can | make no change at all. But it can make what always has been true be |
| Tx:26.67 | all who call on Him? A miracle can make no change at all. But it can | make what always has been true be recognized by those who know it |
| Tx:26.72 | The plans you | make for safety all are laid within the future, where you cannot |
| Tx:26.79 | And now you stand on ground so holy Heaven leans to join with it and | make it like itself. The shadow of an ancient hate has gone, and all |
| Tx:26.89 | is unfair to you because you think that one must be unfair to | make the other innocent. And in this game do you perceive one purpose |
| Tx:27.1 | attack and innocence. Who can combine the wholly incompatible and | make a unity of what can never join? Walk you the gentle way, and you |
| Tx:27.2 | do you see as proof that he is guilty of attack. Thus would you | make yourself to be the sign that he has lost his innocence and need |
| Tx:27.2 | to him, and when it rests on him are you set free. Wish not to | make yourself a living symbol of his guilt, for you will not escape |
| Tx:27.14 | and your hurt cannot exist together. One denies the other and must | make it false. |
| Tx:27.29 | And by this does it join to the idea a something it is not and | make it unintelligible. Who can understand a double concept, such as |
| Tx:27.32 | occupied, becomes a silent invitation to the truth to enter and to | make itself at home. No preparation can be made that would enhance |
| Tx:27.33 | which the truth is represented temporarily. It lets the Holy Spirit | make exchange of pictures possible until the time when aids are |
| Tx:27.36 | there can be no answer and no resolution, for its purpose is to | make no resolution possible and to ensure no answer will be plain. A |
| Tx:27.50 | specific, but they take specific forms, and these specific shapes | make up the world. And no one understands the nature of his problem. |
| Tx:27.54 | Its purpose is the same as pleasure, for they both are means to | make the body real. What shares a common purpose is the same. This is |
| Tx:27.56 | rest. This name or that, but nothing more, you choose. You do not | make a witness true because you called him by truth's name. The truth |
| Tx:27.69 | else's dream. He cannot choose to waken from a dream he did not | make. Helpless he stands, a victim to a dream conceived and cherished |
| Tx:27.70 | you the one decider of your destiny in time. The choice is yours to | make between a sleeping death and dreams of evil or a happy wakening |
| Tx:27.83 | sinful things the body does within its dream. You have no power to | make the body stop its evil deeds because you did not make it and |
| Tx:27.83 | no power to make the body stop its evil deeds because you did not | make it and cannot control its actions or its purpose or its fate. |
| Tx:27.87 | that brings you pain. Whatever hurt you bring to Him He will | make answer with this very simple truth. For this one answer takes |
| Tx:28.4 | The Holy Spirit can indeed | make use of memory, for God Himself is there. Yet this is not a |
| Tx:28.6 | about yourself. Time neither takes away nor can restore. And yet you | make strange use of it, as if the past had caused the present, which |
| Tx:28.6 | present if its cause is past. Only the past is held in memory as you | make use of it, and so it is a way to hold the past against the now. |
| Tx:28.12 | abide. For in that instant does the Son of God do nothing that would | make himself afraid. |
| Tx:28.17 | is a meaningless attempt to give effects to causelessness and | make it be a cause. |
| Tx:28.18 | Always in sickness does the Son of God attempt to | make himself his cause and not allow himself to be his Father's Son. |
| Tx:28.20 | happy dreams the miracle exchanges for your own. It does not ask you | make another—only that you see you made the one you would exchange |
| Tx:28.22 | nothing. What he fears is cause without the consequences which would | make it cause. And so it never was. |
| Tx:28.25 | intent. Their enmity is seen as causeless now, because they did not | make it. And you can accept the role of maker of their hate, because |
| Tx:28.27 | not done to me, but I am doing this.” And thus the mind is free to | make another choice instead. Beginning here, salvation will proceed |
| Tx:28.33 | them for yourself. The miracle will brush them all aside and thus | make room for Him Who wills to come and bridge His Son's returning to |
| Tx:28.35 | bring you witness to what never was. And in your storehouse it will | make a place of welcome for your Father and your Self. The door is |
| Tx:28.39 | his are joined in brotherhood. His body and his dreams but seem to | make a little gap, where yours have joined with his. |
| Tx:28.49 | your Self and walk upon an alien ground which your Creator did not | make and where you seem to be a “something” you are not. You will |
| Tx:28.49 | make and where you seem to be a “something” you are not. You will | make war upon your Self, which seems to be your enemy, and will |
| Tx:28.51 | to look upon a world that is not there, to hear the voices that can | make no sound. Yet are there other sounds and other sights which can |
| Tx:28.51 | every jagged piece, each senseless scrap and shred of evidence, and | make a witness to the world you want. Let not the body's ears and |
| Tx:28.54 | itself nor made itself to be what it is not. It does not seek to | make of pain a joy and look for lasting pleasure in the dust. It does |
| Tx:28.59 | be one with him and not apart. And he will keep the promise that you | make with him because it is the one which he has made to God, as God |
| Tx:28.64 | on straw, there is no need to bar the door and lock the windows and | make fast the bolts. The wind will topple it, and rain will come and |
| Tx:29.3 | The rest are past, but this one still remains to block your path and | make the way to light seem dark and fearful, perilous and bleak. You |
| Tx:29.5 | think that it determines when you meet and limits your ability to | make communion with each other's mind. And now it tells you where to |
| Tx:29.5 | It dictates what its health can tolerate and what will tire it and | make it sick. And its “inherent” weaknesses set up the limitations on |
| Tx:29.23 | you your illusions. By your gift of freedom is it given unto you. | Make way for love, which you did not create, but which you can |
| Tx:29.39 | Swear not to die, you holy Son of God! You | make a bargain that you cannot keep. The Son of Life cannot be |
| Tx:29.40 | there. Change is the greatest gift God gave to all that you would | make eternal, to ensure that only Heaven would not pass away. |
| Tx:29.44 | the body—that it seek for what he lacks and give him what would | make himself complete. And thus he wanders aimlessly about in search |
| Tx:29.49 | to see in it a place of idols found outside yourself, with power to | make complete what is within by splitting what you are between the |
| Tx:29.55 | What hand could be held up to block God's way? Whose voice could | make demand He enter not? The “more-than-everything” is not a thing |
| Tx:29.55 | demand He enter not? The “more-than-everything” is not a thing to | make you tremble and to quail in fear. Christ's enemy is nowhere. He |
| Tx:29.60 | have. If Heaven is within, why would you seek for idols which would | make of Heaven less, to give you more than God bestowed upon your |
| Tx:29.62 | Nor can he know the Self he has condemned. Judge not, because you | make yourself a part of evil dreams where idols are your “true” |
| Tx:29.64 | you from what you believe you have accomplished and have done to | make you sinful and put out the light within you. Little children, it |
| Tx:29.65 | thinks the thoughts are real. And so he makes of anything a toy to | make his world remain outside himself, and play that he is but a part |
| Tx:30.1 | them awhile, until they are the rules by which you live. We seek to | make them habits now, so you will have them ready for whatever need. |
| Tx:30.4 | Today I will | make no decision by myself. |
| Tx:30.5 | you will not judge the situations where you will be called upon to | make response. For if you judge them, you have set the rules for how |
| Tx:30.6 | This is your major problem now. You still | make up your mind and then decide to ask what you should do. And what |
| Tx:30.8 | If I | make no decision by myself, This is the day that will be given me. |
| Tx:30.27 | you now can ask a question that makes sense, and so the answer will | make sense as well. Nor will you fight against it, for you see that |
| Tx:30.29 | We said you can begin a happy day with the determination not to | make decisions by yourself. This seems to be a real decision in |
| Tx:30.29 | This seems to be a real decision in itself. And yet, you cannot | make decisions by yourself. The only question really is with what you |
| Tx:30.29 | by yourself. The only question really is with what you choose to | make them. That is really all. The first rule, then, is not coercion |
| Tx:30.29 | not coercion but a simple statement of a simple fact. You will not | make decisions by yourself whatever you decide. For they are made |
| Tx:30.34 | He joins with you in willing you be free. And to oppose Him is to | make a choice against yourself and choose that you be bound. |
| Tx:30.39 | place of all the love in the divinity of God the Son? What idol can | make two of what is one? And can the limitless be limited? You do not |
| Tx:30.40 | is unlimited. To seek a special person or a thing to add to you to | make yourself complete can only mean that you believe some form is |
| Tx:30.42 | For can he give a part of him away? What is not whole cannot | make whole. But what is really asked for cannot be denied. Your will |
| Tx:30.52 | brought you joy. But neither were they things to frighten you nor | make you safe if they obeyed your rules. They must be neither |
| Tx:30.53 | for thus you prove that you have been deceived. Attack has power to | make illusions real. Yet what it makes is nothing. Who could be made |
| Tx:30.54 | can but deceive the mind that wants to be deceived. And you can | make a simple choice that will forever place you far beyond |
| Tx:30.71 | that calls for punishment. Salvation does not lie in being asked to | make unnatural responses which are inappropriate to what is real. |
| Tx:30.74 | would be one mistake which had the power to undo creation and to | make a world which could replace it and destroy the Will of God. Only |
| Tx:30.77 | of him outside your willingness that he be healed. To heal is to | make whole. And what is whole can have no missing parts that have |
| Tx:30.80 | the glad acknowledgment that guilt has not succeeded by your wish to | make illusions real. And what is this except a simple statement of |
| Tx:30.81 | brother with this hope in you, and you will understand he could not | make an error that could change the truth in him. It is not difficult |
| Tx:30.81 | that have been given no effects. But what you see as having power to | make an idol of the Son of God you will not pardon. For he has become |
| Tx:30.84 | be what meaning means? Perception cannot be in constant flux and | make allowance for stability of meaning anywhere. Fear is a judgment |
| Tx:30.91 | What is temptation but a wish to | make illusions real? It does not seem to be the wish that no reality |
| Tx:31.1 | anyone who wants it to be true? Only unwillingness to learn it could | make such an easy lesson difficult. How hard is it to see that what |
| Tx:31.7 | there hope of happiness in it. There is no plan for safety you can | make that ever will succeed. There is no joy that you can seek for |
| Tx:31.11 | What is temptation but a wish to | make the wrong decision on what you would learn and have an outcome |
| Tx:31.14 | are steps in its relinquishment. The first is a decision that you | make. But afterwards the truth is given you. You would establish |
| Tx:31.17 | for what you choose, you choose as well for him. Two calls you | make to him, as he to you. Between these two is choice because from |
| Tx:31.20 | us, as near or far away from what we want as we will let him be. We | make no gains he does not make with us, and we fall back if he does |
| Tx:31.20 | what we want as we will let him be. We make no gains he does not | make with us, and we fall back if he does not advance. Take not his |
| Tx:31.23 | behind, a bit ahead, would be a safer place for him to be. Can you | make progress if you think the same, advancing only when he would |
| Tx:31.25 | of the road. A blindfold can indeed obscure your sight but cannot | make the way itself grow dark. And He Who travels with you has the |
| Tx:31.26 | Only the self-accused condemn. As you prepare to | make a choice that will result in different outcomes, there is first |
| Tx:31.36 | to still another road. No longer look for hope where there is none. | Make fast your learning now, and understand you but waste time unless |
| Tx:31.40 | There is a choice which you have power to | make when you have seen the real alternatives. Until that point is |
| Tx:31.43 | world is for. This is its purpose—that you come without a self and | make one as you go along. And by the time you reach “maturity,” you |
| Tx:31.45 | never makes the first attack. But every day a hundred little things | make small assaults upon its innocence, provoking it to irritation |
| Tx:31.49 | ideas of idols painted with the brushes of the world, which cannot | make a single picture representing truth. |
| Tx:31.50 | that you are something else. For otherwise you would be asked to | make exchange of what you now believe for total loss of self, and |
| Tx:31.52 | to be. If one was generated by your brother, who was there to | make the other? And from whom must something be kept hidden? If the |
| Tx:31.58 | You will | make many concepts of the self as learning goes along. Each one will |
| Tx:31.63 | behold a world of separation, unrelated things, and happenings that | make no sense at all. This one appears and disappears in death; that |
| Tx:31.65 | Only in arrogance could you conceive that you must | make the way to Heaven plain. The means are given you by which to see |
| Tx:31.68 | use a means as yet too alien to your thinking to be helpful nor to | make the kinds of change you could not recognize. Concepts are needed |
| Tx:31.81 | then, remembering that it is but a wish, insane and meaningless, to | make yourself a thing which you are not. And think as well upon the |
| Tx:31.86 | How do you | make the choice? How easily is this explained! You always choose |
| Tx:31.87 | once again, so where you made a faulty choice before, you now can | make a better one and thus escape all pain which what you chose |
| Tx:31.88 | The images you | make can not prevail against what God Himself would have you be. Be |
| Tx:31.92 | again what you would have him be, remembering that every choice you | make establishes your own identity as you will see it and believe it |
| Tx:31.93 | for otherwise you will behold it not. To give this gift is how to | make it yours. And God ordained in loving kindness that it be for you. |
| Tx:31.95 | Salvation's song will echo through the world with every choice they | make. For we are one in purpose, and the end of hell is near. |
| W1:I.1 | foundation such as the text is necessary as a background to | make these exercises meaningful. Yet it is the exercises which will |
| W1:I.1 | make these exercises meaningful. Yet it is the exercises which will | make the goal possible. An untrained mind can accomplish nothing. It |
| W1:I.4 | to everything. This will not require effort. Only be sure that you | make no exceptions in applying the idea. |
| W1:I.5 | this will matter nor decrease their efficacy. But allow yourself to | make no exceptions in applying the ideas the exercises contain. |
| W1:1.5 | Notice that these statements are not arranged in any order, and | make no allowance for differences in the kinds of things to which |
| W1:2.2 | the idea to anything is merely that your eyes have lighted on it. | Make no attempt to include anything particular, but be sure that |
| W1:4.2 | which you are aware are but shadows of what lies beyond, and shadows | make sight difficult. The “bad” ones are blocks to sight and make |
| W1:4.2 | shadows make sight difficult. The “bad” ones are blocks to sight and | make seeing impossible. You do not want either. |
| W1:12.8 | meaningless and let the truth be written upon it for you, it would | make you indescribably happy. But because it is meaningless, you are |
| W1:15.7 | during the minute or so of practice that is recommended, try to | make the selection as random as possible. Less than a minute will do |
| W1:16.1 | which are true create their own likeness. Those which are false | make theirs. |
| W1:16.4 | get used to it. You will find that it is still hard for you not to | make artificial distinctions. Every thought that occurs to you, |
| W1:17.8 | As usual, it is essential to | make no distinction between what you believe to be animate or |
| W1:19.5 | throughout. Lack of order in this connection will ultimately | make the recognition of lack of order in miracles meaningful to you. |
| W1:20.5 | so every half hour. Do not be distressed if you forget to do so, but | make a real effort to remember. The extra repetitions should be |
| W1:24.1 | In no situation which arises do you realize the outcome that would | make you happy. Therefore you have no guide to appropriate action and |
| W1:25.4 | Before you can | make any sense out of the exercises for today, one more thought is |
| W1:26.2 | believe that you are not invulnerable. Attack thoughts therefore | make you vulnerable in your own mind, which is where the attack |
| W1:26.4 | your thoughts can attack you. Nothing except your thoughts can | make you think you are vulnerable. And nothing except your thoughts |
| W1:28.1 | the future is not our concern here. If you are willing at least to | make them now, you have started on the way to keeping them. And we |

| W1:37.2 | him by asking nothing of him. Those who see themselves as whole | make no demands. |
| W1:38.3 | that you happen to think of in yourself or someone else. We will | make no distinctions because there are no distinctions. |
| W1:38.4 | any sense of loss or unhappiness of any kind as you see it. Try to | make as little distinction as possible between a situation that is |
| W1:41.4 | dense and obscuring, yet representing all you see? Today we will | make our first real attempt to get past this dark and heavy cloud and |
| W1:41.5 | of the practice period, repeat today's idea very slowly. Then | make no effort to think of anything. Try instead to get a sense of |
| W1:43.14 | to strangers and to those you know well. Try, in fact, not to | make distinctions of this kind at all. |
| W1:44.1 | another dimension to it. You cannot see in darkness, and you cannot | make light. You can make darkness and then think you see in it, but |
| W1:44.1 | it. You cannot see in darkness, and you cannot make light. You can | make darkness and then think you see in it, but light reflects life |
| W1:45.2 | thoughts because they are thought by the same Mind. To share is to | make alike or to make one. Nor do the thoughts you think with the |
| W1:45.2 | they are thought by the same Mind. To share is to make alike or to | make one. Nor do the thoughts you think with the Mind of God leave |
| W1:46.13 | original or in a related form as you prefer. Be sure, however, to | make more specific applications if they are needed. They will be |
| W1:51.4 | trying to understand it. But there is every reason to let it go and | make room for what can be seen and understood and loved. I can |
| W1:51.6 | trying to justify “my” thoughts. I am constantly trying to | make them true. I make all things my “enemies” so that my anger is |
| W1:51.6 | justify “my” thoughts. I am constantly trying to make them true. I | make all things my “enemies” so that my anger is justified and my |
| W1:54.2 | are impossible, because all thoughts have power. They will either | make a false world or lead me to the real one. But thoughts cannot be |
| W1:57.3 | must be forever free. He is as God created him, and not what I would | make of him. He is where God would have him be, and not where I |
| W1:58.5 | of the world. Once I have accepted my holiness, nothing can | make me afraid. And because I am unafraid, everyone must share in my |
| W1:62.4 | use it as frequently as possible throughout the day. It will help to | make the day as happy for you as God wants you to be. And it will |
| W1:64.6 | Prepare yourself in advance for all the decisions you will | make today by remembering that they are really very simple. Each one |
| W1:64.6 | or unhappiness. Can such a simple decision really be difficult to | make? Let not the form of the decision deceive you. Complexity of |
| W1:65.6 | At first, | make no attempt to concentrate only on thoughts related to the idea |
| W1:65.8 | thoughts which escaped your attention before, but do not strain or | make undue effort in doing this. Then tell yourself: |
| W1:66.12 | Spirit's Voice. You will listen to madness or hear the truth. Try to | make this choice as you think about the premises on which our |
| W1:67.2 | We will | make every effort today to reach this truth about you and to realize |
| W1:68.2 | to your awareness. It seems to split you off from your Source and | make you unlike Him. It makes you believe that He is like what you |
| W1:69.2 | Today let us | make another real attempt to reach the light in you. Before we |
| W1:69.5 | you would be really convinced of their lack of substance. We will | make this attempt today. |
| W1:70.10 | situations and events, and in self-concepts which you sought to | make real. Recognize that it was not there. Tell yourself: |
| W1:73.1 | no power at all. Its wishes are not idle in the sense that they can | make a world of illusions in which your belief can be very strong. |
| W1:73.1 | be very strong. But they are idle indeed in terms of creation. They | make nothing that is real. |
| W1:73.15 | In the shorter practice periods, again | make a declaration of what you really want. Say: |
| W1:76.1 | it in things that have no meaning, you bind yourself to laws that | make no sense. Thus do you seek to prove salvation is where it is not. |
| W1:76.9 | are no more strange than other “laws” you hold must be obeyed to | make you safe. |
| W1:77.3 | more than what belongs to us in truth. Today, however, we will also | make sure that we will not content ourselves with less. |
| W1:78.1 | Perhaps it is not yet quite clear to you that each decision that you | make is one between a grievance and a miracle. Each grievance stands |
| W1:78.10 | Your savior has been waiting long for this. He would be free and | make his freedom yours. The Holy Spirit leans from him to you, seeing |
| W1:88.5 | my freedom. I am under no laws but God's. I am constantly tempted to | make up other laws and give them power over me. I suffer only because |
| W1:89.5 | with truth according to God's plan for my salvation. I would | make no exceptions and no substitutes. I want all of Heaven and only |
| W1:94.11 | Make every effort to do the hourly exercises today. Each one you do | |
| W1:95.11 | To allow a mistake to continue is to | make additional mistakes based on the first and reinforcing it. It is |
| W1:96.4 | A mind and body cannot both exist. | Make no attempt to reconcile the two, for one denies the other can be |
| W1:96.7 | truth? What purpose could it serve? What is it for? Salvation cannot | make illusions real and solve a problem that does not exist. Perhaps |
| W1:97.4 | He will offer all His strength to every little effort which you | make. |
| W1:98.4 | uncertain too will join with us and, borrowing our certainty, will | make it stronger still. While those as yet unborn will hear the call |
| W1:98.4 | will hear the call we heard and answer it, when they have come to | make their choice again. We do not choose but for ourselves today. |
| W1:98.5 | here? Is not five minutes of the hour but a small request to | make in terms of a reward so great it has no measure? You have made a |
| W1:98.7 | and the certainty you lack. His words will join with yours and | make each repetition of today's idea a total dedication, made in |
| W1:98.13 | the part which He would have you take and help you fill, and He will | make you sure you want this choice, which He has made with you and |
| W1:99.10 | God, as does the rest. It does not think its solitary thoughts and | make them real by hiding them from Him. Let in the light, and you |
| W1:107.11 | tell you you could be apart from Him. You speak to Him today and | make your pledge to let His function be fulfilled through you. To |
| W1:108.13 | cause will be far better understood from this time on, and we will | make much faster progress now. Think of the exercises for today as |
| W1:110.2 | has made at any time or place. It is enough to heal the past and | make the future free. It is enough to let the present be accepted as |
| W1:110.10 | idols and how false the images which you believed were you. Today we | make a great advance to truth by letting idols go and opening our |
| W1:R3.2 | it is impossible at the appointed time. Nor is it necessary that you | make excessive efforts to be sure that you catch up in terms of |
| W1:R3.12 | kind. Try, then, to take it with you in the business of the day and | make it holy, worthy of God's Son, acceptable to God and to your Self. |
| W1:121.1 | for peace. Here is the key to meaning in a world which seems to | make no sense. Here is the way to safety in apparent dangers which |
| W1:122.5 | welcome calling from beyond the doorway, bidding you to enter in and | make yourself at home where you belong. |
| W1:125.6 | in quiet. There is peace within you to be called upon today to help | make ready your most holy mind to hear the Voice of its Creator speak. |
| W1:126.8 | truth that giver and receiver are the same. You will need help to | make this meaningful because it is so alien to the thoughts to which |
| W1:127.2 | To believe these things of love is not to understand it. If it could | make such distinctions it would have to judge between the righteous |
| W1:128.3 | your mind when you perceive salvation here. For what you value you | make part of you as you perceive yourself. All things you seek to |
| W1:128.3 | make part of you as you perceive yourself. All things you seek to | make your value greater in your sight limit you further, hide your |
| W1:129.7 | Practice your willingness to | make this change ten minutes in the morning and at night and once |
| W1:130.2 | And who can choose to see a world of which he is afraid? Fear must | make blind, for this its weapon is—that which you fear to see you |
| W1:130.4 | all distinctions, and the multitude of differences you believe | make up the world. They are not there. Love's enemy has made them up. |
| W1:130.7 | all compromise and doubt and go beyond them all as one. We will not | make a thousand meaningless distinctions, nor attempt to bring with |
| W1:131.8 | its own existence and attacks itself is not of Him. He did not | make two minds, with Heaven as the glad effect of one and earth the |
| W1:131.10 | not choose a paradox in place of truth. How could the Son of God | make time to take away the Will of God? He thus denies himself and |
| W1:131.13 | kind of thought from those I made. The world I seek I did not | make alone. The thoughts I want to think are not my own. |
| W1:131.15 | one can fail who asks to reach the truth, and it is this request you | make today. Nothing but this has any meaning now; no other goal is |
| W1:131.16 | all things you see. A tiny moment of surprise, perhaps, will | make you pause before you realize the world you see before you in the |
| W1:132.5 | Perhaps you think you did not | make the world but came unwillingly to what was made already, hardly |
| W1:132.12 | if you are as God created you, you cannot think apart from Him nor | make what does not share His timelessness and love. Are these |
| W1:133.4 | The laws which govern choice you cannot | make, no more than you can make alternatives from which to choose. |
| W1:133.4 | The laws which govern choice you cannot make, no more than you can | make alternatives from which to choose. The choosing you can do; |
| W1:133.6 | give you just a little, for there is no in-between. Each choice you | make brings everything to you or nothing. Therefore, if you learn the |
| W1:133.6 | tests by which you can distinguish everything from nothing, you will | make the better choice. |
| W1:133.9 | is the one on which the others rest. Why is the choice you | make of value to you? What attracts your mind to it? What purpose |
| W1:133.14 | gain to you in learning this? It is far more than merely letting you | make choices easily and without pain. Heaven Itself is reached by |
| W1:134.12 | he erect the heavy walls of stone and iron doors he thought would | make him safe. He can remove the ponderous and useless armor made to |
| W1:135.2 | a belief that there is danger which has power to call on you to | make appropriate defense. |
| W1:135.4 | not strange you do not pause to ask, as you elaborate your plans and | make your armor thicker and your locks more tight, what you defend, |
| W1:135.6 | no care, and no concern at all. Defend its life, or give it gifts to | make it beautiful or walls to make it safe, and you but say your home |
| W1:135.6 | Defend its life, or give it gifts to make it beautiful or walls to | make it safe, and you but say your home is open to the thief of time, |
| W1:135.7 | set its value far beyond a little pile of dust and water. Who would | make defense of something that he recognized as this? |
| W1:135.8 | yet deeply cherished, are the sources for the many mad attacks you | make upon it. For it seems to fail your hopes, your needs, your |
| W1:135.14 | the body to the plans the unhealed mind sets up to save itself must | make the body sick. It is not free to be a means of helping in a plan |
| W1:135.18 | Defenses are the plans you undertake to | make against the truth. Their aim is to select what you approve and |
| W1:135.22 | we need is given us for our accomplishment of this today. We | make no plans for how it will be done but realize that our |
| W1:135.25 | Nothing but that. If there are plans to | make, you will be told of them. They may not be the plans you thought |
| W1:136.6 | Mistake this not for fact. Defenses must | make facts unrecognizable. They aim at doing this, and this they seem |
| W1:136.8 | which makes you weak and brings you suffering. It is a choice you | make, a plan you lay when for an instant truth arises in your own |
| W1:136.9 | little pile of dust silenced and stilled. For see, this dust can | make you suffer, twist your limbs, and stop your heart, commanding |
| W1:136.13 | Such is the simple truth. It does not | make appeal to might nor triumph. It does not command obedience nor |
| W1:136.20 | or any laws you made it serve before. You need do nothing now to | make it well, for sickness has become impossible. |
| W1:136.21 | If you let your mind harbor attack thoughts, yield to judgment, or | make plans against uncertainties to come, you have again misplaced |
| W1:137.2 | suffer what the others do not feel. It gives the body final power to | make the separation real and keep the mind in solitary prison, split |
| W1:137.16 | foolish thoughts that ever were imagined. Now we come together to | make well all that was sick and offer blessing where there was |
| W1:138.1 | exists, there must be hell as well, for contradiction is the way we | make what we perceive and what we think is real. Creation knows no |
| W1:138.4 | choices are confronting you when there is really only one to | make. And even this but seems to be a choice. Do not confuse yourself |
| W1:138.4 | yourself with all the doubts that myriad decisions would induce. You | make but one. And when that one is made, you will perceive it was no |
| W1:138.6 | than merely being what it is. Of all the choices you have tried to | make, this is the simplest, most definitive, the prototype of all the |
| W1:138.7 | we begin today considering the choice that time was made to help us | make. Such is its holy purpose, now transformed from the intent you |
| W1:138.10 | between the clearly seen and the unrecognized? Yet who can fail to | make a choice between alternatives when only one is seen as valuable, |
| W1:138.10 | thing, a but imagined source of guilt and pain? Who hesitates to | make a choice like this? And shall we hesitate to choose today? |
| W1:138.11 | We | make the choice for Heaven as we wake and spend five minutes making |
| W1:138.11 | that we have made the one decision that is sane. We recognize we | make a conscious choice between what has existence and what has |
| W1:138.13 | Heaven is the decision I must | make. I make it now and will not change my mind, because it is the |
| W1:138.13 | Heaven is the decision I must make. I | make it now and will not change my mind, because it is the only thing |
| W1:139.2 | refused to recognize himself? Only refusal to accept yourself could | make the question seem to be sincere. The only thing that can be |
| W1:140.1 | beneficial. What the world perceives as therapeutic is but what will | make the body “better.” When it tries to heal the mind, it sees no |
| W1:140.2 | dream that he was sick, and in the dream he found a magic formula to | make him well. Yet he has not awakened from the dream, and so his |
| W1:140.2 | him and end the dream. What difference does the content of a dream | make in reality? One either sleeps or wakens. There is nothing in |
| W1:140.6 | This is the thought that cures. It does not | make distinctions among unrealities. Nor does it seek to heal what is |
| W1:140.11 | but all of them as one. They are the same. We have no need to | make them different and thus delay the time when we can hear our |
| W1:149.2 | [138] Heaven is the decision I must | make. |
| W1:153.18 | is spent in offering salvation to the world. Think you He will not | make this possible for you who chose to carry out His plan for the |
| W1:154.5 | A messenger does not elect to | make the message he delivers. Nor does he question the right of him |
| W1:155.2 | back and let it lead the way. What other choice is really theirs to | make? To let illusion walk ahead of truth is madness, but to let |
| W1:155.3 | This is the simple choice we | make today. The mad illusion will remain awhile in evidence for those |
| W1:155.11 | that pass, and miracles are purposeless, the holy Son of God will | make no journeys. There will be no wish to be illusion rather than |
| W1:155.11 | way that truth points out to us. This is our final journey, which we | make for everyone. We must not lose our way. For as truth goes before |
| W1:157.8 | Guide to Heaven given you has dreamed for you this journey which you | make and start today with the experience this day holds out to you to |
| W1:158.4 | from the point at which it ended, looking back on it, imagining we | make it once again; reviewing mentally what has gone by. |
| W1:161.4 | for every mind is one. Such is the truth. Yet do these thoughts | make clear the meaning of creation? Do these words bring perfect |
| W1:165.3 | in comparison with them? And having found them, would he not | make sure they stay with him and he remains with them? |
| W1:166.1 | will is one with His, His gifts are not received. But what would | make you think there is another will than His? |
| W1:166.8 | gifts. How could you then proclaim your poverty in exile? He would | make you laugh at this perception of yourself. Where is self-pity |
| W1:166.8 | is self-pity then? And what becomes of all the tragedy you sought to | make for him whom God intended only joy? |
| W1:166.12 | giving holds, for He has saved you from the solitude you sought to | make in which to hide from God. He has reminded you of all the gifts |
| W1:167.4 | emotions alternate because of causes you cannot control, you did not | make, and you can never change. It is the fixed belief ideas can |
| W1:167.6 | that is all. It cannot change what is its waking state. It cannot | make a body nor abide within a body. What is alien to the mind does |
| W1:167.6 | it lacks nor change its own eternal, mindful state. It cannot | make the physical. What seems to die is but the sign of mind asleep. |
| W1:167.7 | It is not its opposite in anything created nor in what it seems to | make when it believes it sleeps. |
| W1:167.8 | does not sleep, and His creations cannot share what He gives not nor | make conditions which He does not share with them. The thought of |
| W1:169.8 | We have repeated several times before that you but | make a journey that is done. For oneness must be here. Whatever time |
| W1:170.2 | fear is to attack! For here is fear begot and fed with blood, to | make it grow and swell and rage. And thus is fear protected, not |
| W1:170.3 | You | make what you defend against, and by your own defense against it, is |
| W1:170.5 | it is obvious ideas must leave their source. For it is you who | make attack and must have first conceived of it. Yet you attack |
| W1:170.9 | But it can also be the time of your release from abject slavery. You | make a choice, standing before this idol, seeing him exactly as he |
| W1:170.9 | from it and lay before this mindless piece of stone? Or will you | make another idol to replace it? For the god of cruelty takes many |
| W1:170.12 | The choice you | make today is certain. For you look for the last time upon this bit |
| W1:170.14 | world with what we have received from You alone. We choose again and | make our choice for all our brothers, knowing they are one with us. |
| W1:R5.2 | have no words to give to You. We would but listen to Your Word and | make it ours. Lead our practicing as does a father lead a little |
| W1:R5.9 | one. Help me now to lead you back to where the journey was begun, to | make another choice with me. |
| W1:I2.1 | Our next few lessons | make a special point of firming up your willingness to make your weak |
| W1:I2.1 | few lessons make a special point of firming up your willingness to | make your weak commitment strong, your scattered goals blend into one |
| W1:184.8 | naming. When you call upon a brother, it is to his body that you | make appeal. His true Identity is hidden from you by what you believe |
| W1:185.2 | cannot play with dreams nor think he is himself a dream. He cannot | make a hell and think it real. He wants the peace of God, and it is |
| W1:185.7 | another dream be given us. They do not ask for compromise nor try to | make another bargain in the hope that there may yet be one which can |
| W1:185.9 | in place of Heaven and the peace of God?” This is the choice you | make. Be not deceived that it is otherwise. No compromise is possible |
| W1:185.10 | dreams. For them as well as for yourself you ask but this when you | make this request with deep sincerity. For thus you reach to what |
| W1:186.5 | the false is true has brought to you. Accept the plan you did not | make instead. Judge not your value to it. If God's Voice assures you |
| W1:186.8 | given us, for all illusions rest upon the weird belief that we can | make another for ourselves. Our self-made roles are shifting, and |
| W1:186.9 | His attributes with His creation. All the images His Son appears to | make have no effect on what he is. They blow across his mind like |
| W1:186.10 | and serene when you accept the function given you. The images you | make give rise to but conflicting goals, impermanent and vague, |
| W1:186.12 | that seems impossible, remember Who it is that asks and who would | make denial. Then consider this—which is more likely to be right? |
| W1:186.13 | He would comfort you, although He knows no sorrow. He would | make a restitution, though He is complete; a gift to you, although He |
| W1:187.1 | is proof of having. We have made this point before. What seems to | make it hard to credit is not this. No one can doubt that you must |
| W1:187.2 | Yet we have learned that things but represent the thoughts that | make them. And you do not lack for proof that when you give ideas |
| W1:188.9 | all the world of what we thought it did to us. For it is we who | make the world as we would have it. Now we choose that it be |
| W1:189.8 | part in joyful and immediate response. Ask and receive. But do not | make demands nor point the road to God by which He should appear to |
| W1:190.5 | affects you. There is nothing in the world which has the power to | make you ill or sad or weak or frail. But it is you who have the |
| W1:190.7 | world, as causeless, has no power to cause. As an effect, it cannot | make effects. As an illusion it is what you will. Your idle wishes |
| W1:190.11 | And so again we | make the only choice that ever can be made—we choose between |
| W1:192.5 | changing him who learns at all. The mind without the body cannot | make mistakes. It cannot think that it will die nor be the prey of |
| W1:194.6 | will not hesitate to give as much consistent effort as you can to | make it be a part of you. As it becomes a thought which rules your |
| W1:194.9 | are tempted to attack, we will appeal to Him Who guards our rest to | make the choice for us that leaves temptation far behind. No longer |
| W1:195.5 | Therefore give thanks, but in sincerity. And let your gratitude | make room for all who will escape with you—the sick, the weak, the |
| W1:196.1 | kept in full awareness, you will not attempt to harm yourself nor | make your body slave to vengeance. You will not attack yourself, and |
| W1:196.5 | The dreary, hopeless thought that you can | make attacks on others and escape yourself has nailed you to the |
| W1:196.11 | Pray that the instant may be soon—today. Step back from fear and | make advance to love. |
| W1:197.1 | mind from the belief in outside force pitted against your own. You | make attempts at kindness and forgiveness. Yet you turn them to |
| W1:198.9 | Today we practice letting freedom come to | make its home with you. The truth bestows these words upon your mind |
| W1:199.5 | Cherish today's idea, and practice it today and every day. | Make it a part of every practice period you take. There is no thought |
| W1:199.7 | are enslaved within a body. Be you free, so that the Holy Spirit can | make use of your escape from bondage to set free the many who |
| W1:199.7 | Accept salvation now, and give your mind to Him Who calls to you to | make this gift to Him. For He would give you perfect freedom, perfect |
| W1:200.4 | in alien forms which have no meaning to you, though you sought to | make them meaningful. This world is not where you belong. You are a |
| W1:200.6 | Who could hope for more while there appears to be a choice to | make between success and failure, love and fear? |
| W1:200.7 | no peace except the peace of God because He has one Son, who cannot | make a world in opposition to God's Will and to his own, which is the |
| W1:R6.1 | should not be less than 15 minutes, and the hourly remembrances we | make throughout the day, use the idea as often as you can between |
| W2:I.4 | Has not His faithfulness earned Him the invitation that He seeks to | make us happy? We will offer it, and it will be accepted. So our |
| W2:I.9 | for Himself. We wanted God to change Himself and be what we would | make of Him. And we believed that our insane desires were the truth. |
| W2:WF.1 | brother did to you has not occurred. It does not pardon sins and | make them real. It sees there was no sin. And in this view are all |
| W2:227.1 | it is today that I am free because my will is Yours. I thought to | make another will. Yet nothing that I thought apart from You exists. |
| W2:WIW.3 | is to fulfill the purpose which the world was made to witness and | make real. They see in its illusions but a solid base where truth |
| W2:242.1 | there is One Who knows all that is best for me. And He is glad to | make no choices for me but the ones that lead to God. This day I give |
| W2:243.1 | that this is so. And so I am relieved of judgment which I cannot | make. Thus do I free myself and what I look upon, to be in peace as |
| W2:244.2 | In God are we secure. For what can come to threaten God Himself or | make afraid what will forever be a part of Him? |
| W2:259.1 | God seem unobtainable. What else could blind us to the obvious and | make the strange and the distorted seem more clear? What else but sin |
| W2:260.1 | Father, I did not | make myself, although in my insanity I thought I did. Yet as Your |
| W2:WIB.5 | You will identify with what you think will | make you safe. Whatever it may be, you will believe that it is one |
| W2:277.1 | the body. He is not subject to any laws I made by which I try to | make the body more secure. He is not changed by what is changeable. |
| W2:277.2 | Let us not worship idols nor believe in any laws idolatry would | make to hide the freedom of the Son of God. He is not bound except by |
| W2:292.1 | God's promises | make no exceptions. And He guarantees that only joy can be the final |
| W2:297.1 | This is salvation's simple formula. And I, who would be saved, would | make it mine to be the way I live within a world that needs salvation |
| W2:306.2 | hands and open hearts and minds, asking but what You give. We cannot | make an offering sufficient for Your Son. But in Your Love, the gift |
| W2:307.1 | only that. There is no other will for me to have. Let me not try to | make another will, for it is senseless and will cause me pain. Your |
| W2:311.1 | totality and therefore judges falsely. Let us not use it today but | make a gift of it to Him Who has a different use for it. He will |
| W2:317.1 | waits until I take this part as what I choose to do. Until I | make this choice, I am the slave of time and human destiny. But when |
| W2:323.1 | eternal joy. Such is the “sacrifice” You ask of me, and one I gladly | make, the only “cost” of restoration of Your memory to me for the |
| W2:325.2 | Father, Your Ideas reflect the truth, and mine apart from Yours but | make up dreams. Let me behold what only Yours reflect, for Yours and |
| W2:331.1 | Father, to believe Your Son could cause himself to suffer! Could he | make a plan for his damnation and be left without a certain way to |
| W2:343.1 | me forever and forever. As I was created, I remain. Your Son can | make no sacrifice, for he must be complete, having the function of |
| W2:349.1 | For thus do I obey the law of love and give what I would find and | make my own. It will be given me because I have chosen it as the gift |
| W2:351.1 | and friendless in a fearful world. Yet this perception is a choice I | make and can relinquish. I can also see my brother sinless as Your |
| W2:352.1 | not. Through this I come to You. Judgment will bind my eyes and | make me blind. Yet love, reflected in forgiveness here, reminds me |

| W2:E.5 | making sure that hell will claim you not and that each choice you | make brings Heaven nearer to your reach. And so we walk with Him from |
| M:3.1 | at the beginning, although the ultimate goal is always the same—to | make of the relationship a holy relationship in which both can look |
| M:4.4 | gifts of God are laid before him? What is it that induces them to | make the shift? |
| M:4.5 | in a different light? He is not yet at a point at which he can | make the shift entirely internally. And so the plan will sometimes |
| M:4.14 | completely obliterates his function from his awareness. It will | make him confused, fearful, angry, and suspicious. It will make the |

| M:4.17 | no dreams that need defense against the truth. They do not try to | make themselves. Their joy comes from their understanding Who created |
| M:8.2 | could it be otherwise? By definition, an illusion is an attempt to | make something real that is regarded as of major importance but is |
| M:8.2 | but is recognized as being untrue. The mind therefore seeks to | make it true out of its intensity of desire to have it for itself. |
| M:8.5 | And so it is with healing. The properties of illusions which seem to | make them different are really irrelevant, for their properties are |
| M:9.2 | he learns one lesson with increasing thoroughness. He does not | make his own decisions; he asks his Teacher for His answer, and it is |
| M:10.4 | Wisdom is not judgment; it is the relinquishment of judgment. | Make then but one more judgment. It is this—there is Someone with |
| M:12.5 | for the body's condition. Yet the teacher of God does not | make this decision alone. To do that would be to give the body |
| M:13.8 | forget the meaning of sacrifice, and remember what each decision you | make must mean in terms of cost. Decide for God, and everything is |
| M:14.3 | leave behind. One sin perfectly forgiven by one teacher of God can | make salvation complete. Can you understand this? No; it is |
| M:15.4 | and His alone, will be accepted in the end. It is your function to | make that end be soon. It is your function to hold it to your heart |
| M:16.7 | and knows it to be so. He has a Guide Who will not fail. He need | make no distinctions among the problems he perceives, for He to Whom |
| M:16.11 | Is not this an exchange that you would want? The world would gladly | make it if it knew it could be made. It is God's teachers who must |
| M:16.11 | who must teach it that it can. And so it is their function to | make sure that they have learned it. No risk is possible throughout |
| M:17.5 | has a deadly “enemy.” And he must stand alone in his protection and | make himself a shield to keep him safe from fury that can never be |
| M:17.9 | Madness but seems terrible. In truth it has no power to | make anything. Like the magic which becomes its servant, it neither |
| M:19.5 | and do not confuse His mercy with your own insanity. Perception can | make whatever picture the mind desires to see. Remember this. In this |
| M:22.1 | Atonement is the Word of God. Accept His Word, and what remains to | make sickness possible? Accept His Word, and every miracle has been |
| M:22.3 | is healing needs to be understood if the teacher of God is to | make progress. The idea that a body can be sick is a central concept |
| M:25.1 | “unnatural” powers, and it is obviously merely an appeal to magic to | make up a power that does not exist. It is equally obvious, however, |
| M:27.2 | world is now a battleground where contradiction reigns and opposites | make endless war. Where there is death is peace impossible. |
| M:27.4 | teachers because not one could be acceptable to God. He did not | make death, because He did not make fear. Both are equally |
| M:27.4 | be acceptable to God. He did not make death, because He did not | make fear. Both are equally meaningless to Him. |

| Tx:6.46 | This enables the ego to regard itself as separate and outside its | maker, thus speaking for the part of your mind that believes you are |
| Tx:6.48 | against it. It interprets this as a justification for attacking its | maker. It believes that the best defense is attack and wants you to |

| Tx:1.53 | to the extent that he reinforces errors they have already made. This | makes them vulnerable to the distortions of others since their own |
| Tx:1.94 | is more consistent in his own denial of truth. The miracle, however, | makes no such distinctions. It corrects errors because they are |
| Tx:1.95 | 52. The miracle | makes no distinction among degrees of misperception. It is a device |

| Tx:2.49 | mind to concur. This reestablishes the true power of the will and | makes it increasingly unable to tolerate delay. The mind then |
| Tx:3.26 | who has not experienced some light and some [of everything]. This | makes everyone really unable to deny truth totally, even if he |
| Tx:3.35 | When you love someone, you have perceived him as he is, and this | makes it possible for you to know him. However, it is not until you |
| Tx:3.42 | part as on a different level and does not understand it. This | makes the parts strangers to each other, without recognition. This is |
| Tx:3.67 | it, not to punish His Children, but only because He knows that it | makes them unhappy. Souls were given their true Authorship, but men |
| Tx:3.74 | This | makes absolutely no sense. The whole picture is one in which man acts |
| Tx:4.6 | mind is split between the ego and the Soul, so that whatever the ego | makes is incomplete and contradictory. This untenable position is the |
| Tx:4.25 | Each man | makes one ego for himself, although it is subject to enormous |
| Tx:4.34 | It can do so, however, only under one condition; what man then | makes is no longer creative. Myths are entirely perceptions and are |
| Tx:4.54 | the one fact that means the ego does not exist and which therefore | makes it profoundly afraid. In the ego's language, remember, “to |
| Tx:4.57 | about some Soul that God created and are perceiving images your ego | makes in a darkened glass. Think honestly what you have thought that |
| Tx:4.70 | impulses from God and from the body. Any thought system which | makes this confusion must be insane. Yet this demented state is |

| Tx:4.80 | his mind because you are also accepting these limits for yours. This | makes you unable to heal him and yourselves. Be always unwilling to |
| Tx:4.90 | you can come to know each other, and one moment of real recognition | makes all men your brothers because they are all of your Father. Love |
| Tx:5.2 | therefore the same as to integrate and to make one. That is why it | makes no difference to what part or by what part of the Sonship the |
| Tx:5.6 | of ideas, the whole belief in the false association which the ego | makes between giving and losing is gone. |
| Tx:5.38 | He can thus perform the function of reinterpreting what the ego | makes, not by destruction but by understanding. Understanding is |
| Tx:5.47 | was ever created and therefore cannot be protected. What the ego | makes, it keeps to itself, and so it is without strength. Its |
| Tx:5.60 | is incapable of giving rise to guilt and must give rise to joy. This | makes it invulnerable to the ego because its peace is unassailable. |
| Tx:5.63 | has reality for you. It is, however, only your acceptance of it that | makes it real. If you enthrone the ego in it, the fact that you have |
| Tx:5.63 | ego in it, the fact that you have accepted it or allowed it to enter | makes it your reality. This is because the mind, as God created it, |
| Tx:5.68 | order their own thought and must therefore obey its orders. This | makes them feel responsible for their mind errors, without |
| Tx:5.76 | you will cultivate in yourself. Your judgment of what is worthy | makes it worthy for you. “Vengeance is mine, sayeth the Lord” is |
| Tx:6.12 | A church is where an altar is, and the presence of the altar is what | makes it a church. Any church which does not inspire love has a |
| Tx:6.14 | to repeat my experiences, because the Holy Spirit, Whom we share, | makes this unnecessary. To use my experiences constructively, |
| Tx:6.19 | Apostles often misunderstood it and always for the same reason that | makes anyone misunderstand anything. Their own imperfect love made |
| Tx:6.24 | You cannot love what you do not appreciate, and fear | makes appreciation impossible. Whenever you are afraid of what you |
| Tx:6.27 | them. The ego justifies this on the wholly spurious grounds that it | makes you seem “better” than they are, thus obscuring your equality |
| Tx:6.48 | not the mind, as its ally, because the body is not part of you. This | makes the body the ego's friend. It is an alliance frankly based on |
| Tx:6.60 | children. Yet He always answers their call, and His dependability | makes them more certain. Children do confuse fantasy and reality, and |
| Tx:6.60 | frightened, because they do not know the difference. The Holy Spirit | makes no distinction among dreams. He merely shines them away. His |
| Tx:6.65 | attack, for pleasure, and for pride. The insanity of this perception | makes it a fearful one indeed. The Holy Spirit sees the body only as |
| Tx:6.74 | Meanwhile, the increasing clarity of the Holy Spirit's Voice | makes it impossible for the learner not to listen. For a time, then, |
| Tx:6.86 | dichotomy between the desirable and the undesirable. It therefore | makes the ultimate choice inevitable. |

| Tx:7.25 | as belonging to anyone at the expense of another. Such a perception | makes it meaningless by eliminating or overlooking its real and only |
| Tx:7.45 | as meaningful. Fear does not gladden. Healing does. Fear always | makes exceptions. Healing never does. Fear produces dissociation, |
| Tx:7.50 | unable to understand this, because it does not understand what it | makes; it does not appreciate it; and it does not love it. It |
| Tx:7.58 | the ego reproduces fear. This is its allegiance, and this allegiance | makes it treacherous to love, because you are love. Love is your |
| Tx:7.59 | as total, because it senses the fact that all commitments the mind | makes are total. Forced, therefore, to detach itself from you who are |
| Tx:7.59 | that the mind cannot make illusions, but it does follow that if it | makes illusions it will believe in them, because that is how it made |
| Tx:7.62 | God does not know, your thought seems to contradict His, and this | makes it appear as if you are attacking Him. We have repeatedly |
| Tx:7.78 | unless you did not value it and therefore did not want it. This | makes you feel deprived of it, and by projecting your own rejection, |
| Tx:7.87 | be attacked. The belief that it can, a fallacy which the ego always | makes, underlies its whole use of projection. It does not understand |
| Tx:7.94 | acceptance of wholeness. The full appreciation of its self-fullness | makes selfishness impossible and extension inevitable. That is why |
| Tx:8.2 | when you meet its conditions. This is not a bargain made by God, Who | makes no bargains. It is merely the result of your misuse of His laws |
| Tx:8.11 | but the attempt to learn it is a violation of your own freedom and | makes you afraid of your will because it is free. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:8.30 | you are deciding against healing, and your veto of my will for you | makes healing impossible. If healing is our joint will, unless our |
| Tx:8.71 | making the concept of both health and sickness possible. The ego | makes a fundamental confusion between means and ends, as it always |
| Tx:8.85 | out of what God created. The ego despises weakness, even though it | makes every effort to induce it. The ego wants only what it hates. To |
| Tx:8.95 | mean anything. A message cannot be said to be communicated unless it | makes sense. How sensible can your messages be when you ask for what |
| Tx:9.1 | kind of sense because it is sensible to them. To the Holy Spirit, it | makes no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and right and good to |
| Tx:9.1 | kind and right and good to point out errors and “correct” them. This | makes perfect sense to the ego, which is totally unaware of what |
| Tx:9.3 | no communication at all between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego | makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not attempt to understand |
| Tx:9.12 | for one, though not of the right teacher. The ego's plan, of course, | makes no sense and will not work. By following it, you will merely |
| Tx:9.15 | dangerous combination of grandiosity and confusion which | makes it likely that the ego will attack anyone and anything for no |
| Tx:9.28 | also be for his patient. The Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He | makes healing perfectly clear in any situation in which he is the |
| Tx:9.73 | If you realized the complete havoc this | makes of your peace of mind, you could not make such an insane |
| Tx:9.73 | vigilant against God and His Kingdom. And it is this vigilance that | makes you afraid to remember Him. |
| Tx:9.74 | What you think you are can be hateful, and what this strange image | makes you do can be very destructive. Yet the destruction is no more |
| Tx:9.80 | I know you. I know your value for you, and it is this value that | makes you whole. A whole mind is not idolatrous and does not know of |
| Tx:10.13 | The projection of the ego | makes it appear as if God's Will is outside yourself and therefore |
| Tx:10.14 | of sickness and fear arises here because this is the belief that | makes you want not to know. Believing this, you hide in darkness, |
| Tx:10.41 | In fact, it contains exactly the contradiction in terms which | makes it meaningless. “Dynamics” implies the power to do something, |
| Tx:10.54 | the Holy Spirit's. The ego focuses on error and overlooks truth. It | makes real every mistake it perceives, and with characteristically |
| Tx:10.55 | The ego | makes no attempt to understand this, and it is clearly not |
| Tx:11.3 | There is but one interpretation of all motivation that | makes any sense. And because it is the Holy Spirit's judgment, it |
| Tx:11.4 | are except your own perceived need to attack. It is only this that | makes you willing to engage in endless “battles” with reality in |
| Tx:11.29 | for this is crucial to his adjustment. He does not realize that he | makes this world, for there is no world outside of him. |
| Tx:11.36 | for love. Yet the ego, though encouraging the search very actively, | makes one proviso—do not find it. Its dictates, then, can be summed |
| Tx:11.99 | the ego's teaching, then, there is no escape from guilt. For attack | makes guilt real, and if it is real, there is no way to overcome it. |
| Tx:12.29 | For you are meeting no one, and the sharing of salvation, which | makes the encounter holy, is excluded from your sight. The Holy |
| Tx:12.35 | upon them, and he alone believes they answered him. Projection | makes perception, and you cannot see beyond it. Again and again have |
| Tx:13.5 | in the darkness, and let Him gather them into His quiet sight that | makes them one. |
| Tx:13.12 | only in terms of the belief in which the faith was placed. Faith | makes the power of belief, and where it is invested determines its |
| Tx:13.17 | Guilt | makes you blind, for while you see one spot of guilt within you, you |
| Tx:13.21 | at all. They are used only by the Holy Spirit, and it is that which | makes them pure. [If you displace your guilt upon them, the Holy |
| Tx:13.40 | to seek. When you have learned this, you will find the answer that | makes the need for any differences disappear. Truth comes of its own |
| Tx:13.80 | when all knowledge lies behind every decision which the Holy Spirit | makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and teach His answer |
| Tx:14.5 | Love, to share with all the lonely ones who denied Him with you? God | makes this possible. Would you deny His yearning to be known? You |
| Tx:14.15 | him. Holiness must be shared, for therein lies everything that | makes it holy. Come gladly to the holy circle, and look out in peace |
| Tx:14.39 | change with time or mood or chance. Its changelessness is what | makes it real. This cannot be undone. Undoing is for unreality. And |
| Tx:14.54 | form is not enough for meaning, and the underlying lack of content | makes a cohesive system impossible. Separation therefore remains the |
| Tx:14.69 | you do. And each miracle He offers you corrects your use of time and | makes it His. |
| Tx:14.73 | need do. The Holy Spirit will, of Himself, fill every mind that so | makes room for Him. |
| Tx:15.41 | only way you could do that is to deny the perfect communication that | makes the holy instant what it is. You believe that it is possible to |
| Tx:15.66 | into any relationship without anger, for the ego believes that anger | makes friends. This is not its statement, but it is its purpose. For |
| Tx:15.70 | In one way or another, every relationship which the ego | makes is based on the idea that by sacrificing itself, it becomes |
| Tx:15.72 | it is in these terms that it evaluates ideas as good or bad. What | makes another guilty and holds him through guilt is “good.” What |
| Tx:15.78 | Whose only need is to have you be complete. For your completion | makes you His in your awareness. And here it is that you experience |
| Tx:15.100 | And yet it is the recognition of the decision just as it is that | makes the decision so easy! Salvation is simple, being of God and |
| Tx:16.19 | love asks only that you be happy and will give you everything that | makes for happiness. You have never given any problem to the Holy |
| Tx:16.30 | to hide it. For it is the attempt to balance hate with love that | makes love meaningless to you. The extent of the split that lies in |
| Tx:16.32 | effects of hate by finding a haven in the storm of guilt. It | makes no attempt to rise above the storm into the sunlight. On the |
| Tx:16.37 | The special love relationship is but a shabby substitute for what | makes you whole in truth, not in illusion. Your relationship with |
| Tx:16.40 | Whom God remembers must be whole. And God has never forgotten what | makes Him whole. In your completion lies the memory of His wholeness |
| Tx:17.2 | your power. Yet by distorting it and devoting it to “evil,” it also | makes it unreal. You cannot be faithful to two masters who ask of you |
| Tx:17.45 | His goal replaces yours. This is accomplished very rapidly, but it | makes the relationship seem disturbed, disjunctive, and even quite |
| Tx:17.55 | means as they stand now which seems to make you suffer, but which | makes Heaven glad. If Heaven were outside you, you could not share in |
| Tx:17.59 | goal, set at the outset, the situation just seems to happen and | makes no sense until it has already happened. Then you look back at |
| Tx:17.59 | for vengeance? The absence of a criterion for outcome set in advance | makes understanding doubtful and evaluation impossible. |
| Tx:17.72 | transformed to means for truth. [Truth calls for faith, and faith | makes room for truth.] When the Holy Spirit changed the purpose of |
| Tx:18.39 | It is this that | makes the holy instant so easy and so natural. You make it difficult |
| Tx:18.39 | your understanding is a powerful contribution to the truth and | makes it what it is. Yet we have emphasized that you need understand |
| Tx:18.63 | not involve its comfort or protection or enjoyment in some way? This | makes it an end and not a means in your interpretation, and this |
| Tx:18.71 | It is only the awareness of the body that | makes love seem limited. For the body is a limit on love. The belief |
| Tx:18.78 | at the desert, dry and unproductive, scorched and joyless, which | makes up your little kingdom. And realize the life and joy which love |
| Tx:19.2 | heals through you. It is this joining Him in a united purpose which | makes this purpose real because you make it whole. And this is |
| Tx:19.11 | saw the Christ in him, and he was healed because you looked on what | makes faith forever justified in everyone. |
| Tx:19.17 | error be not confused with “sin,” and it is this distinction which | makes salvation possible. For error can be corrected, and the wrong |
| Tx:19.22 | could everything be upside-down. This is the strange illusion which | makes the clouds of guilt seem heavy and impenetrable. The solidness |
| Tx:19.47 | no longer an unrelenting barrier to peace. Its pointless wandering | makes its results appear to be more erratic and unpredictable than |
| Tx:19.88 | be a source of fear, when any situation strikes you with terror and | makes your body tremble and the cold sweat of fear comes over it, |
| Tx:19.93 | gone, what can you fear but life? It is the attraction of death that | makes life seem to be ugly, cruel, and tyrannical. You are no more |
| Tx:20.17 | and prevent their union. It is this studied interference which | makes it difficult for you to recognize your holy relationship for |
| Tx:20.20 | there at all. Yet judgment lays a sentence on it, justifies it, and | makes it real. Such is the world you see—a judgment on yourself and |
| Tx:20.50 | what you fear within your brother and would not see in him is what | makes God seem fearful to you and kept unknown. |
| Tx:20.55 | on. And here he is more dead than living. Yet it is also here he | makes his choice again between idolatry and love. |
| Tx:20.70 | you shall be yours. This is your purpose now, and the vision that | makes it yours is ready to be given. You have the vision which |
| Tx:21.1 | Projection | makes perception. The world you see is what you gave it, nothing more |
| Tx:21.27 | his creating. Apart from this he has no power to create, and what he | makes is meaningless. It changes nothing in creation, depends |
| Tx:21.37 | Brothers, the Holy Spirit knows that sacrifice brings nothing. He | makes no bargains. And if you seek to limit Him, you will hate Him |
| Tx:21.37 | for you without one spot of sin upon it and in the innocence which | makes the sight of it as beautiful as Heaven. |
| Tx:21.41 | teach you that you are sinful. Errors He will correct, but this | makes no one fearful. You are indeed afraid to look within and see |
| Tx:21.42 | fear to look within because of sin is yet another fear and one which | makes the ego tremble. |
| Tx:21.49 | Perception selects and | makes the world you see. It literally picks it out as the mind |
| Tx:21.50 | will be your faith. But never believe because it is your faith it | makes reality. |
| Tx:21.51 | They are the obvious response to calls for help, the only one It | makes. Miracles seem unnatural to the ego because it does not |
| Tx:22.2 | from themselves. It is this difference, seen but not real, that | makes the need for sin, not real but seen, seem justified. And all |
| Tx:22.10 | because your whole communication is like a baby's. The sounds a baby | makes and what he hears are highly unreliable, meaning different |
| Tx:22.19 | is different. One illusion cherished and defended against the truth | makes all truth meaningless and all illusions real. Such is the power |
| Tx:22.31 | Reason is not salvation in itself, but it | makes way for peace and brings you to a state of mind in which |
| Tx:22.33 | Reason will tell you that the form of error is not what | makes it a mistake. If what the form conceals is a mistake, the form |
| Tx:22.46 | what goes against the truth, flies in the face of reason, and | makes no sense. Can this be justified? What can this be except an |
| Tx:22.50 | your unwillingness to overlook what seems to stand between you that | makes it look impenetrable and defends the illusion of its |
| Tx:22.53 | sinless because the goal is sinlessness. The lack of contradiction | makes the soft transition from means to end as easy as is the shift |
| Tx:22.65 | you shines throughout the universe, and because it joins you, so it | makes you one with your Creator. And in Him is all creation joined. |
| Tx:22.65 | your relationship can also teach the power of love is there, which | makes all fear impossible? Do not attempt to keep a little of the ego |
| Tx:23.20 | and therefore true. Each one establishes this for himself and | makes it true by his attack on what another values. And this is |
| Tx:23.22 | punishment and not correction. For the destruction of the one who | makes the error places him beyond correction and beyond forgiveness. |
| Tx:23.30 | will cure all of your pain; the missing factor in your madness that | makes it “sane.” This is the reason why you must attack. Here is what |
| Tx:23.30 | it “sane.” This is the reason why you must attack. Here is what | makes your vengeance justified. Behold, unveiled, the ego's secret |
| Tx:23.34 | that laws like these can be believed? There is a strange device that | makes it possible. Nor is it unfamiliar; we have seen how it appears |
| Tx:23.35 | in any form be love? What form of condemnation is a blessing? Who | makes his savior powerless and finds salvation? Let not the form of |
| Tx:23.44 | This course is easy just because it | makes no compromise. Yet it seems difficult to those who still |
| Tx:23.49 | Either the Father and the Son are murderers or neither is. Life | makes not death, creating like itself. |
| Tx:24.9 | see no specialness of any kind between you? Look fairly at whatever | makes you give each other only partial welcome or would let you think |
| Tx:24.9 | is limited by your relationship? And is not this the “enemy” that | makes you both illusions to each other? |
| Tx:24.12 | Comparison must be an ego device, for love | makes none. Specialness always makes comparisons. It is established |
| Tx:24.12 | must be an ego device, for love makes none. Specialness always | makes comparisons. It is established by a lack seen in another and |
| Tx:24.17 | of truth: you will no longer see what never was, nor hear what | makes no sound. Is it a sacrifice to give up nothing and to receive |
| Tx:24.22 | that you have lost because he is complete? What has been given him | makes you complete, as it does him. God's love gave you to him and |
| Tx:24.24 | The hope of specialness | makes it seem possible God made the body as the prison-house which |
| Tx:24.26 | to himself as lovely still. And so he calls it “unforgivable” and | makes it sin. How can he then give his forgiveness wholly, when he |
| Tx:24.29 | specialness stands like a flaming sword of death between them and | makes them “enemies.” |
| Tx:24.35 | the purpose of the body be but specialness? And it is this that | makes it frail and helpless in its own defense. It was conceived to |
| Tx:24.40 | you can wish for something and lack faith that it is so. Wishing | makes real, as surely as does will create. The power of a wish |
| Tx:24.61 | what you do through Christ it does not know. To Him this judgment | makes no sense at all, for only what His Father wills is possible, |
| Tx:24.67 | of everything on earth is simply this: “What is it for?” The answer | makes it what it is for you. It has no meaning of itself, yet you can |
| Tx:24.69 | This course | makes no attempt to teach what cannot easily be learned. Its scope |
| Tx:24.69 | Perception does not seem to be a means. And it is this that | makes it hard to grasp the whole extent to which it must depend on |
| Tx:24.70 | that feel it, and the ears with which you listened to the sounds it | makes. It proves its own reality to you. |
| Tx:25.3 | that shines from Him. And nothing that the body says or does but | makes Him manifest. To those who know Him not, it carries Him in |
| Tx:25.32 | as such that varies. Yet it is the way in which the aim is seen that | makes the choice of means inevitable and beyond the hope of change |
| Tx:25.33 | harmful or beneficent apart from what you wish. It is your wish that | makes it what it is in its effects on you. Because you chose it as a |
| Tx:25.38 | Attack | makes Christ your enemy and God along with Him. Must you not be |
| Tx:25.44 | the grace of God upon your eyes and brings the gift of light that | makes sight possible. |
| Tx:25.52 | is mad or is this world a place of madness. Not one Thought of His | makes any sense at all within this world. And nothing that the world |
| Tx:25.52 | the world believes as true has any meaning in His Mind at all. What | makes no sense and has no meaning is insanity. And what is madness |
| Tx:25.53 | not think differently. And it is the agreement of their thought that | makes the Son a co-creator with the mind Whose Thought created him. |
| Tx:25.56 | Yet if His Will is seen as madness, then the form of sanity which | makes it most acceptable to those who are insane requires special |
| Tx:25.65 | else but not escaped. The laws of sin demand a victim. Who it may be | makes little difference. But death must be the cost and must be paid. |
| Tx:25.81 | The sight of innocence | makes punishment impossible and justice sure. The Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:26.5 | that they might see a purpose in the world that gives it sense and | makes it meaningful. Without your special function has this world no |
| Tx:26.12 | or place and time, or any attribute which you perceive that | makes each one seem different from the rest. Think not the limits you |
| Tx:26.13 | He does not pause to judge whether the hurt be large or little. He | makes but one judgment—that to hurt God's Son must be unfair and |
| Tx:26.18 | complexity in Him? What is there to decide? For it is conflict that | makes choice [complex]. The truth is simple—it is one, without an |
| Tx:26.18 | its simple presence and bring complexity where oneness is? The truth | makes no decisions, for there is nothing to decide between. And only |
| Tx:26.20 | a segment of the universe made true. This is because knowledge | makes no attack upon perception. They are brought together, and only |
| Tx:26.29 | and remains without a voice that adds its power to the song and | makes it sweeter still. And each one joins the singing at the altar |
| Tx:26.51 | Yet it appears some are more true than others, although this clearly | makes no sense at all. All that a hierarchy of illusions can show is |
| Tx:26.69 | time because you still believe you are external to each other. This | makes trust impossible. And you cannot believe that trust would |
| Tx:26.70 | a little time in which forgiveness is withheld a little while. This | makes the interval between the time in which forgiveness is withheld |
| Tx:27.45 | If you wish only to be healed, you heal. Your single purpose | makes this possible. But if you are afraid of healing, then it cannot |
| Tx:27.55 | name, as one steps forward and another back. Yet which is foremost | makes no difference. Sin's witnesses hear but the call of death. |
| Tx:27.58 | The miracle | makes no distinctions in the names by which sin's witnesses are |
| Tx:27.64 | exactly as it is could fail to see it does not follow, and it | makes no sense. Yet it seems sensible because it looks as if the |
| Tx:27.68 | them for yourself. This is how all illusions come about. The one who | makes them does not see himself as making them, and their reality |
| Tx:28.48 | bitterness and death, of sin and suffering, [of] pain and loss, that | makes them real. Unshared, they are perceived as meaningless. The |
| Tx:28.52 | in any place or time. For it fills every place and every time and | makes them wholly indivisible. |
| Tx:28.55 | because it has no feeling. It behaves in ways you want but never | makes the choice. It is not born and does not die. It can but follow |

| Tx:29.65 | his thoughts, because he thinks the thoughts are real. And so he | makes of anything a toy to make his world remain outside himself, and |
| Tx:30.27 | Thus you now can ask a question that | makes sense, and so the answer will make sense as well. Nor will you |
| Tx:30.32 | will be wholly shared. For they have understood the basic law that | makes decision powerful and gives it all effects that it will ever |
| Tx:30.53 | been deceived. Attack has power to make illusions real. Yet what it | makes is nothing. Who could be made fearful by a power that can have |
| Tx:30.86 | apart from this idea. And it is this idea of different goals which | makes perception shift and meaning change. In one united goal does |
| Tx:30.86 | In one united goal does this become impossible, for your agreement | makes interpretation stabilize and last. |
| Tx:30.89 | form and capable of change. Reality is changeless. It is this that | makes it real and keeps it separate from all appearances. It must |

| Tx:31.4 | until a world was built that suited you. And every lesson that | makes up the world arises from the first accomplishment of learning— |
| Tx:31.39 | that happiness is ever found by following a road away from it. This | makes no sense and cannot be the way. To you who seem to find this |
| Tx:31.45 | accords to those who would be generous and good. This aspect never | makes the first attack. But every day a hundred little things make |
| Tx:31.46 | fact the world deals harshly with defenseless innocence? No one who | makes a picture of himself omits this face, for he has need of it. |
| Tx:31.48 | be neither blamed for what you are, nor can you change the things it | makes you do. And you are each the symbol of your sins to one |
| Tx:31.54 | the concept of the self from what is wholly passive and at least | makes way for active choice and some acknowledgment that interaction |
| Tx:31.65 | are nor what you think the truth about yourself must really be. It | makes no difference what you look upon nor what you choose to feel or |
| W1:23.1 | is meaningless. But this way cannot fail. Every thought you have | makes up some segment of the world you see. It is with your thoughts, |
| W1:25.2 | interests, because the ego is not you. This false identification | makes you incapable of understanding what anything is for. As a |
| W1:25.4 | understand is what you want to reach him for. And it is this that | makes your contact with him meaningful or not. |
| W1:44.2 | outside you. An essential part of this equipment is the light that | makes seeing possible. It is with you always, making vision possible |
| W1:68.2 | seems to split you off from your Source and make you unlike Him. It | makes you believe that He is like what you think you have become, for |
| W1:70.6 | us to be healed, and we do not really want to be sick, because it | makes us unhappy. Therefore, in accepting the idea for today, we are |
| W1:72.6 | The body's apparent reality | makes this view of God quite convincing. In fact, if the body were |
| W1:75.4 | us. This is what we want to see, and only this. Our single purpose | makes our goal inevitable. Today the real world rises before us in |
| W1:83.5 | both come from the same Source. And I must learn to recognize what | makes me happy if I would find happiness. |
| W1:91.2 | presence is unknown to you. And the seeming reality of the darkness | makes the idea of light meaningless. |
| W1:91.4 | you feel this strength. When you have felt the strength in you which | makes all miracles within your easy reach, you will not doubt. The |
| W1:94.1 | one idea which brings complete salvation; the one statement which | makes all forms of temptation powerless; the one thought which |
| W1:95.1 | one with Him. Yours is the unity of all creation. Your perfect unity | makes change in you impossible. You do not accept this and you fail |
| W1:95.3 | attempt today to be aware of only what can hear and see and what | makes perfect sense. We will again direct our exercises towards |
| W1:96.5 | Spirit | makes use of mind as means to find its Self-expression. And the mind |
| W1:97.3 | minutes which you give are multiplied over and over, for the miracle | makes use of time but is not ruled by it. Salvation is a miracle, the |
| W1:97.7 | as does the radiance of the sun outshine the tiny gleam a firefly | makes an uncertain moment, and goes out. Yet will the steady |
| W1:102.1 | now, at least enough to let you question it and to suspect it really | makes no sense. It has not gone as yet but lacks the roots that once |
| W1:108.2 | True light which | makes true vision possible is not the light the body's eyes behold. |
| W1:121.11 | it, and then try to let this light extend until it covers him and | makes the picture beautiful and good. |
| W1:126.11 | as you can, remind yourself you have a goal today—an aim which | makes this day of special value to yourself and all your brothers. Do |
| W1:127.11 | would know our Self. At least three times an hour think of one who | makes the journey with you and who came to learn what you must learn. |
| W1:132.13 | in truth. God shares His Fatherhood with you who are His Son, for He | makes no distinctions in what is Himself and what is still Himself. |
| W1:133.7 | away a value that is real. What fades and dies was never there and | makes no offering to him who chooses it. He is deceived by nothing in |
| W1:133.11 | who would still preserve the ego's goals and serve them as his own | makes no mistakes according to the dictates of his guide. This |
| W1:134.6 | It is sin's unreality that | makes forgiveness natural and wholly sane, a deep relief to those who |
| W1:135.16 | happenings. It does not think that it will be provided for unless it | makes its own provisions. Time becomes a future emphasis to be |
| W1:135.26 | must be defended from release. Heaven asks nothing. It is hell that | makes extravagant demands for sacrifice. You give up nothing in these |
| W1:136.5 | quick forgetting of the part you play in making your “reality” which | makes defenses seem to be beyond your own control. But what you have |
| W1:136.8 | It is not a thing that happens to you quite unsought, which | makes you weak and brings you suffering. It is a choice you make, a |
| W1:138.2 | It is this strange perception of the truth that | makes the choice of Heaven seem to be the same as the relinquishment |
| W1:138.2 | would be the error truth can be brought to illusions. Opposition | makes the truth unwelcome, and it cannot come. |
| W1:140.4 | heal the sick, for that is not a cure. It takes away the guilt that | makes the sickness possible. And that is cure indeed. For sickness |
| W1:152.6 | such things seem to have reality. He is not mad. Yet only madness | makes a world like this. |
| W1:153.2 | gives rise but to defensiveness. For threat brings anger, anger | makes attack seem reasonable, honestly provoked, and righteous in the |
| W1:156.1 | Today's idea but states the simple truth that | makes the thought of sin impossible. It promises there is no cause |
| W1:161.5 | It seems to be the body that we feel limits our freedom, | makes us suffer, and at last puts out our life. Yet bodies are but |
| W1:161.12 | his clothing. Watch him smile, and see familiar gestures which he | makes so frequently. Then think of this—what you are seeing now |
| W1:162.3 | Holy indeed is he who | makes these words his own—arising with them in his mind, recalling |
| W1:165.1 | What | makes this world seem real except your own denial of the truth which |
| W1:165.2 | It left you not. The Thought of God protects you, cares for you, | makes soft your resting place and smooth your way, lighting your mind |
| W1:167.10 | not as we imagine it. Who changes life because he shuts his eyes or | makes himself what he is not because he sleeps and sees in dreams an |
| W1:167.12 | mere reflection. It becomes the thing reflected and the light which | makes reflection possible. No vision now is needed. For the wakened |
| W1:168.1 | God speaks to us. Shall we not speak to Him? He is not distant. He | makes no attempt to hide from us. We try to hide from Him and suffer |
| W1:I2.1 | will bestow, if only intermittently. It is experiencing this which | makes it sure that you will give your total willingness to following |
| W1:182.3 | find, not recognizing what it is he seeks. A thousand homes he | makes, yet none contents his restless mind. He does not understand he |
| W1:183.11 | calls on his Father's Name. His Father's Thoughts become his own. He | makes his claim to all his Father gave, is giving still, and will |
| W1:184.8 | is hidden from you by what you believe he really is. His body | makes response to what you call him, for his mind consents to take |
| W1:186.6 | Arrogance | makes an image of yourself that is not real. It is this image which |
| W1:192.3 | has the power to translate into form the wholly formless. What He | makes are dreams, but of a kind so close to waking that the light of |
| W1:193.7 | that is the content underneath the form. It is this sameness which | makes learning sure because the lesson is so simple that it cannot be |
| W1:195.4 | than you, nor could you sanely be enraged if he seems freer. Love | makes no comparisons. And gratitude can only be sincere if it is |
| W1:197.9 | as you receive it. Be you free of all ingratitude to anyone who | makes your Self complete. And from this Self is no one left outside. |
| W1:198.1 | Injury is impossible. And yet illusion | makes illusion. If you can condemn, you can be injured. For you have |
| W1:198.2 | at all. Yet must we deal with them a while as if they had. Illusion | makes illusion. Except one. Forgiveness is illusion that is answer to |
| W1:R6.5 | a deep relinquishment of everything that clutters up the mind and | makes it deaf to reason, sanity, and simple truth. |
| W2:I.2 | spending time with Him each morning and at night, as long as | makes us happy. We will not consider time a matter of duration now. |
| W2:WF.2 | An unforgiving thought is one which | makes a judgment that it will not raise to doubt, although it is not |
| W2:226.1 | I so choose, I can depart this world entirely. It is not death which | makes this possible, but it is change of mind about the purpose of |
| W2:228.1 | Shall I deny His knowledge and believe in what His knowledge | makes impossible? Shall I accept as true what He proclaims as false? |
| W2:249.1 | a world where suffering is over, loss becomes impossible, and anger | makes no sense. Attack is gone, and madness has an end. What |
| W2:259.1 | Sin is the only thought that | makes the goal of God seem unobtainable. What else could blind us to |

| W2:332.1 | Truth undoes its evil dreams by shining them away. Truth never | makes attack. It merely is. And by its presence is the mind recalled |

| M:4.12 | due to their perfect honesty. It is only the wish to deceive that | makes for war. No one at one with himself can even conceive of |
| M:4.12 | implies doubt, and the trust on which God's teachers rest secure | makes doubt impossible. Therefore they can only succeed. In this, as |
| M:4.24 | paves the way for what goes far beyond all learning. The curriculum | makes no effort to exceed its legitimate goal. Forgiveness is its |
| M:5.4 | And if it is a decision, it is the mind and not the body that | makes it. The resistance to recognizing this is enormous, because the |
| M:6.3 | Trust is an essential part of giving; in fact, it is the part that | makes sharing possible, the part that guarantees the giver will not |
| M:6.4 | It is the relinquishing of all concern about the gift that | makes it truly given. And it is trust that makes true giving |
| M:6.4 | about the gift that makes it truly given. And it is trust that | makes true giving possible. Healing is the change of mind that the |
| M:7.1 | be willing to change his mind about it. He lacked the trust that | makes for giving truly, and so he has not received the benefit of his |
| M:10.5 | Whose judgment he has chosen now to trust instead of his own. Now he | makes no mistakes. His Guide is sure. And where he came to judge, he |
| M:11.4 | is your judgment of the world escaped! It is not the world that | makes peace seem impossible. It is the world you see that is |
| M:12.4 | Yet what | makes them God's teachers is their recognition of the proper purpose |

| Tx:12.26 | we said its emphasis on guilt enables it to ensure its continuity by | making the future like the past and thus avoiding the present. By the |
| Tx:12.26 | past in the future, the past becomes the determiner of the future, | making them continuous without an intervening present. For the ego |

| Tx:13.67 | Atonement, not for its rejection. I would accept my guiltlessness by | making it manifest and sharing it. Let me bring peace to God's Son |
| Tx:13.91 | to His love and holiness, which join together as the truth in you, | making you one with Him. |
| Tx:14.2 | Your task is not to make reality. It is here without your | making, but not without you. You who have thrown your selves away and |

| Tx:14.38 | The knowledge is safe, but wherein is your safety apart from it? The | making of time to take the place of timelessness lay in the decision |

| Tx:19.25 | guilt still calls to it, and the mind hears it and yearns for it, | making itself a willing captive to its sick appeal. Sin is an idea of |
| Tx:19.33 | hope of healing. For there would be a power beyond God's, capable of | making another will which could attack His Will and overcome it and |
| Tx:19.84 | imaginings. Here is the final end of union, the triumph of the ego's | making over creation, the victory of lifelessness on Life Itself. |

| Tx:27.63 | the problem is absurd when clearly seen. No one has difficulty | making up his mind to let a simple problem be resolved if it is seen |

| Tx:1.38 | is the state which produces action, though it does not inspire it. | Man is free to believe what he chooses, and what he does attests to |

| Tx:1.79 | “No | man cometh unto the Father but by me” is among the most misunderstood |
| Tx:1.79 | vertical rather than a horizontal axis. Regarded along the vertical, | man stands below me and I stand below God. In the process of “rising |

| Tx:1.81 | revelation. Revelation is not reciprocal. It is always from God to | man. The miracle is reciprocal because it involves equality. |
| Tx:1.85 | 51. The miracle is the only device which | man has at his immediate disposal for controlling time. Only |
| Tx:1.86 | serves any purpose. While he believes he is in a body, however, | man can choose between loveless and miraculous channels of |
| Tx:1.87 | Man was not created by his own free will alone. Only what he creates | |
| Tx:1.89 | in the creation of God, it is very apparent in the creations of | man. It is, in fact, the essential difference. A need implies lack by |
| Tx:1.90 | a better term than the “fall,” nothing was lacking. This meant that | man had no needs at all. If he had not deprived himself, he would |
| Tx:1.90 | behavior. The belief that he could be better off is the reason why | man has this mechanism at his disposal. |
| Tx:1.92 | concept of a need hierarchy, a corollary to the original error that | man can be separated from God, requires correction at its own level |
| Tx:1.92 | level before the error of perceiving levels at all can be corrected. | Man cannot behave effectively while he operates at split levels. |
| Tx:1.93 | The physical world exists only because | man can use it to correct his unbelief, which placed him in it |
| Tx:1.93 | them. Belief in a creation produces its existence. That is why a | man can believe in what no one else thinks is true. It is true for |
| Tx:1.96 | bound by the laws which govern the error it aims to correct. Only | man makes this kind of mistake. It is an example of the foolish |
| Tx:1.98 | 53. The miracle compares what | man has made with the higher level creation, accepting what is in |
| Tx:1.98 | level, and therefore do not exist at all. To whatever extent a | man is willing to submit his beliefs to this test, to that extent are |
| Tx:1.107 | means of making false associations and obtaining pleasure from them. | Man can do this only because he is creative. But, although he can |
| Tx:1.107 | false associations, he can never make them real except to himself. | Man believes in what he creates. If he creates miracles, he will be |
| Tx:2.3 | both mental health and mental illness. We have already observed that | man can create an empty shell, but he cannot create nothing at all. |
| Tx:2.4 | that the pre-separation state was essentially one in which | man needed nothing. The “tree of knowledge” is also an overly literal |
| Tx:2.7 | is implicit that what God created can be changed by the mind of | man. |
| Tx:2.9 | Third, the belief that | man can distort the creations of God, including himself, is accepted. |
| Tx:2.10 | Fourth, the idea that since | man can create himself, the direction of his own creation is up to |
| Tx:2.12 | connotation of the term, included both the proper creation of | man by God and the proper creation by man in his right mind. The |
| Tx:2.12 | both the proper creation of man by God and the proper creation by | man in his right mind. The latter required the endowment of man by |

| Tx:2.14 | The history of | man in the world as he sees it has not yet been marked by any genuine |
| Tx:2.14 | comprehensive reawakening or rebirth. This is impossible as long as | man projects in the spirit of miscreation. It still remains within |

| Tx:2.37 | It became increasingly apparent that all of the defenses which | man can choose to use constructively or destructively were not enough |
| Tx:2.40 | are different degrees is learning meaningful. The “evolution” of | man is merely a process by which he proceeds from one degree to the |
| Tx:2.46 | receive the Atonement. This heals the separation and places within | man the one defense against all separation mind-errors which can make |
| Tx:2.57 | All material means which | man accepts as remedies for bodily ills are merely restatements of |
| Tx:2.67 | in physical sight. The reason this so often entails fear is because | man is afraid of what his Spiritual eye will see. We said before that |
| Tx:2.67 | eye does produce extreme discomfort by what it sees. Yet what | man forgets is that the discomfort is not the final outcome of its |
| Tx:2.68 | corrected by any device which can be seen physically. As long as a | man believes in what his physical sight tells him, all his corrective |
| Tx:2.68 | behavior will be misdirected. The real vision is obscured, because | man cannot endure to see his own defiled altar. But since the altar |
| Tx:2.69 | to accept the unequivocal fact that healing is necessary. | Man is not willing to look on what he has done to himself. Healing is |
| Tx:2.69 | look on what he has done to himself. Healing is an ability lent to | man after the separation, before which it was completely unnecessary. |
| Tx:2.70 | Most of the loftier concepts of which | man is capable now are time-dependent. Charity is really a weaker |
| Tx:2.70 | love-encompassment which is far beyond any form of charity that | man can conceive of as yet. Charity is essential to right-mindedness |
| Tx:2.71 | time at most. It must be understood, however, that whenever a | man offers a miracle to another, he is shortening the suffering of |
| Tx:2.91 | All destructive thinking is dangerous. Given a death wish, a | man has no choice except to act upon the thought or behave contrary |
| Tx:2.92 | The world is full of examples of how | man has depreciated himself because he is afraid of his own thoughts. |
| Tx:2.97 | When | man miscreates he is in pain. The cause and effect principle here is |
| Tx:2.97 | Effect relationships which are totally different from those which | man introduced into his own miscreations. The fundamental opponents |

| Tx:2.99 | whenever light enters darkness, the darkness is abolished. What | man believes is true for him. In this sense the separation has |
| Tx:2.105 | One of the chief ways in which | man can correct his magic-miracle confusion is to remember that he |
| Tx:2.105 | creation. Since creative ability rests in the mind, everything that | man creates is necessarily a matter of will. It also follows that |
| Tx:2.106 | not understand it. Judgment is not an essential attribute of God. | Man brought judgment into being only because of the separation. After |
| Tx:2.108 | as a procedure undertaken by God. Actually it will be undertaken by | man with my help. It is a final healing rather than a meting out of |
| Tx:2.108 | a final healing rather than a meting out of punishment, however much | man may think that punishment is deserved. Punishment is a concept in |

| Tx:2.109 | constructive sense and reflects the true meaning of the Apocalypse. | Man will ultimately look upon his own creations and will to preserve |
| Tx:3.12 | of thinking which His own words have clearly stated is unworthy of | man? |
| Tx:3.15 | karmic viewpoint. It is a real misperception of truth by which | man assigns his own “evil” past to God. The “evil conscience” from |
| Tx:3.15 | Mind does not create that way. He does not hold the evil deeds of a | man even against himself. Is it likely, then, that He would hold |
| Tx:3.16 | for a host of related errors including the belief that God rejected | man and forced him out of the Garden of Eden. It is also responsible |
| Tx:3.16 | every effort to use words that are almost impossible to distort, but | man is very inventive when it comes to twisting symbols around. |
| Tx:3.18 | demonstration that all of the other lessons which I taught are true. | Man is released from all errors if he believes in this. The deductive |
| Tx:3.21 | in any way is a clear cut violation of God's own injunction that | man should be merciful even as his Father in Heaven. It has been hard |

| Tx:3.38 | and creates. These are its unequivocal functions.] The abilities | man now possesses are only shadows of his real strengths. All of his |
| Tx:3.38 | the levels of the Trinity are capable of unity. The levels which | man created by the separation cannot but conflict. This is because |
| Tx:3.40 | Consciousness was the first split that | man introduced into himself. He became a perceiver rather than a |
| Tx:3.40 | of the created-creator confusion we have spoken of before. Yet | man can only know himself as he is because that is all he can be sure |
| Tx:3.41 | is the questioning compartment in the post-separation psyche which | man created for himself. It is capable of asking valid questions but |
| Tx:3.42 | of the fear-prone condition in which attack is always possible. | Man has every reason to feel afraid as he perceives himself. This is |
| Tx:3.43 | it heals misperception, and this is indeed a miracle in view of how | man perceives himself. |
| Tx:3.46 | of perception, actually a distorted form of creation, then permitted | man to interpret the body as himself, which, though depressing, was |

| Tx:3.71 | There is no | man who does not feel that he is imprisoned in some way. If this is |

| Tx:3.75 | The fruit of only one tree was “forbidden” to | man in his symbolic garden. But God could not have forbidden it or it |

| Tx:4.27 | No one disowns something he regards as a very real part of himself. | Man reacts to his ego much as God does to His Souls: with love, |

| Tx:5.25 | “What profiteth it a | man if he gain the whole world and lose his own Soul?” That means |
| Tx:5.84 | apparent in his thinking became increasingly less apparent to him. A | man who knows what fixation really means and yet does not yield to it |
| Tx:5.86 | it has a number of learning advantages. First, it recognizes that | man can be fixated at a point in development which does not accord |
| Tx:5.89 | his own thought system at every turn because he was both an honest | man and a healer. He was therefore only partially insane and was |

| Tx:12.9 | your homecoming, and the joy will be yours. For the redeemed son of | man is the guiltless Son of God, and to recognize him is your |
| Tx:21.1 | your state of mind, the outside picture of an inward condition. As a | man thinketh, so does he perceive. Therefore, seek not to change the |
| Tx:24.72 | purpose. The Son of God retains His Father's Will. The son of | man perceives an alien will and wishes it were so. And thus does his |

| Tx:8.61 | body is perceived as whole. Its purpose is seen as fragmented into | many functions which bear little or no relationship to each other, so |
| Tx:8.64 | This releases the mind from the temptation to see the body in | many lights and gives it over entirely to the One Light in Which it |
| Tx:8.78 | power of something you want, even if it is not true? You have had | many instances of how what you want can distort what you see and |

| Tx:8.94 | the Holy Spirit sees that you can possibly have. We have emphasized | many times that the Holy Spirit will never call upon you to sacrifice |
| Tx:8.97 | for the atheist and the latter for the martyr. Martyrdom takes | many forms, the category including all doctrines which hold that God |
| Tx:8.98 | very simply, that no one wants either abandonment or retaliation. | Many people seek both, but it is still true that they do not want |
| Tx:8.109 | at all. It is impossible, however, that it will be lost. There are | many answers which you have already received but have not yet heard. |

| Tx:9.92 | In | many only the spark remains, for the Great Rays are obscured. Yet God |

| Tx:9.95 | is an insane idea. He has many forms, but although he may seem like | many different things he is but one idea—the denial of God. |
| Tx:9.104 | it is blasphemous to feel depressed. All of these illusions and the | many other forms which blasphemy may take are refusals to accept |
| Tx:10.34 | of light. Remember also that the denial of this simple fact takes | many forms, and these you must learn to recognize and to oppose |
| Tx:10.72 | you do you will not know that it is yours already. You have made | many ideas which you have placed between yourselves and your Creator, |
| Tx:10.80 | long as you believe that problems are specific. His answer is both | many and one, as long as you believe that the one is many. Realize |
| Tx:10.80 | answer is both many and one, as long as you believe that the one is | many. Realize that you are afraid of His specificity for fear of what |
| Tx:12.33 | it is extended, for it increases as it is given. The other has | many forms, for the content of individual illusions differs greatly. |

| Tx:15.23 | form of littleness that can ever content you. You are free to try as | many as you wish, but all you will be doing is to delay your |
| Tx:15.74 | which the ego has “blessed,” for anger is its blessing. Anger takes | many forms, but it cannot long deceive those who will learn that love |
| Tx:15.95 | that is necessary, for you made but one mistake. It seems like | many, but it is all the same. For though the ego takes many forms, it |
| Tx:15.95 | It seems like many, but it is all the same. For though the ego takes | many forms, it is always the same idea. What is not love is always |
| Tx:15.100 | bondage, for there are no alternatives but these. You have tried | many compromises in the attempt to avoid recognizing the one decision |

| Tx:18.66 | it in the future. Release is given you the instant you desire it. | Many have spent a lifetime in preparation and have indeed achieved |
| Tx:19.29 | the mind, although the body's eyes will see no change. The eyes see | many things the mind corrects, and you respond, not to the eyes' |
| Tx:19.37 | to embrace all the Sonship and give it rest, it will encounter | many obstacles. Some of them you will try to impose. Others will seem |
| Tx:19.42 | is a limit you would place upon the whole. God's Will is One, not | many. It has no opposition, for there is none beside it. What you |
| Tx:20.5 | See all the useless things made for its eyes to see. Think on the | many offerings made for its pleasure and remember all these were made |
| Tx:20.41 | means and end have not been brought in line. Why should it take so | many holy instants to let this be accomplished, when one would do? |
| Tx:20.48 | that it could offer is seen as valueless. Homeless, the ego seeks as | many bodies as it can collect to place its idols in and so establish |
| Tx:20.74 | you want the purpose which they serve? This world seems to hold out | many purposes, each different and with different values. Yet they are |
| Tx:22.24 | see again another form of the same fundamental illusion we have seen | many times before. Only if it were possible the Son of God could |
| Tx:23.34 | Nor is it unfamiliar; we have seen how it appears to function | many times before. In truth it does not function, yet in dreams, |
| Tx:24.4 | and never brought to reason to be considered sensible or not. And | many senseless outcomes have been reached, and meaningless decisions |
| Tx:24.5 | be defended though unrecognized, is faith in specialness. This takes | many forms but always clashes with the reality of God's creation and |
| Tx:24.14 | His Son like to itself and not like unto Him. His “special” sons are | many, never one, each one in exile from himself and Him of Whom they |
| Tx:25.29 | are two ways to see. This world has much to offer to your peace and | many chances to extend your own forgiveness. Such its purpose is to |
| Tx:26.10 | whatever form the problem seems to take. A problem can appear in | many forms, and it will do so while the problem lasts. It serves no |
| Tx:26.30 | for only that is all there is to learn. And you can learn it | many different ways. All learning is a help or hindrance to the gate |
| Tx:26.48 | It cannot be perceived, but only known. What is perceived takes | many forms, but none has meaning. Brought to truth, its senselessness |
| Tx:27.7 | conviction to the system they speak for and represent. And each has | many voices, speaking to your brother and yourself in different |
| Tx:27.13 | Is healing frightening? To | many, yes. For accusation is a bar to love, and damaged bodies are |

| W1:96.1 | the contradictory aspects of this self-perception. You have sought | many such solutions, and none of them has worked. The opposites you |

| W1:184.13 | But first you must accept One Name for all reality, and realize the | many names you gave its aspects have distorted what you see but have |
| W1:184.15 | things and You Who are their One Creator. What we made and call by | many different names is but a shadow we have tried to cast across |

| Tx:30.5 | you are choosing not to be the judge of what to do. But it must also | mean you will not judge the situations where you will be called upon |
| Tx:30.40 | person or a thing to add to you to make yourself complete can only | mean that you believe some form is missing. And by finding this, you |
| Tx:30.50 | the boxes and the bears did not deceive him, broke no rules, nor | mean his world is made chaotic and unsafe. He was mistaken. He |
| Tx:30.70 | pardon where attack is due and would be justified. For this would | mean that you forgive a sin by overlooking what is really there. This |
| Tx:30.87 | communication really be established while the symbols which are used | mean different things? The Holy Spirit's goal gives one |
| Tx:30.87 | dreams for meaning. Only dreams of pardon can be shared. They | mean the same to both of you. |
| Tx:30.88 | And through His use of symbols are we joined so that they | mean the same to all of us. Our common language lets us speak to all |

| Tx:12.29 | were not holy, the future cannot be, and the present is without | meaning. It is evident that the Holy Spirit's perception of time is |
| Tx:12.33 | For they are meaningful only to their maker, and so they have no | meaning at all. In this world their maker moves alone, for only he |
| Tx:13.2 | of the Holy Spirit, as perfect as perception can be, is without | meaning in Heaven. Perception can reach everywhere under His |

| Tx:13.23 | The past is not in you. Your weird associations to it have no | meaning in the present. Yet you let them stand between you and your |
| Tx:13.35 | torn in endless battles which he himself perceives as wholly without | meaning. |
| Tx:14.16 | The obscure is frightening because you do not understand its | meaning. If you did, it would be clear, and you would be no longer in |
| Tx:14.18 | of obscurity, only the light of love remains, for only this has | meaning and can live in light. Everything else must disappear. |
| Tx:14.19 | meaningless. All you have done by keeping them apart is lose their | meaning by confusing them with each other. And so you do not realize |
| Tx:14.21 | symbols do not understand the language you have made. It has no | meaning, for its purpose is not communication, but rather the |
| Tx:14.22 | you know not what is said to you. Yet your Interpreter perceives the | meaning in your alien language. He will not attempt to communicate |
| Tx:14.22 | communicate the meaningless. But He will separate out all that has | meaning, dropping off the rest and offering your true communication |
| Tx:14.31 | you see means anything alone. Seeing with Him will show you that all | meaning, including yours, comes not from double vision but from the |
| Tx:14.31 | from double vision but from the gentle fusing of everything into one | meaning, one emotion, and one purpose. God has one purpose which He |
| Tx:14.42 | are seen in light. In darkness they are obscure, and their | meaning seems to lie only in shifting interpretations rather than in |
| Tx:14.44 | which shines in your mind is not obscure and will not change. Its | meaning to those who look upon it is not obscure, for everyone |
| Tx:14.54 | them is incoherent and utterly chaotic. For form is not enough for | meaning, and the underlying lack of content makes a cohesive system |
| Tx:14.55 | you bring with you a light so powerful that what you see is given | meaning. The lonely journey fails because it has excluded what it |
| Tx:14.60 | past, but its influence determines the present by giving it whatever | meaning it holds for you. Your learning gives the present no meaning |
| Tx:14.60 | meaning it holds for you. Your learning gives the present no | meaning at all. Nothing you have ever learned can help you understand |
| Tx:15.45 | Holy Spirit's most useful learning device for teaching you love's | meaning. For its purpose is to suspend judgment entirely. Judgment |
| Tx:15.54 | as one. And united in your blessing, it becomes one to you. The | meaning of love is the meaning God gave to it. Give to it any meaning |
| Tx:15.54 | in your blessing, it becomes one to you. The meaning of love is the | meaning God gave to it. Give to it any meaning apart from His, and it |
| Tx:15.54 | The meaning of love is the meaning God gave to it. Give to it any | meaning apart from His, and it is impossible to understand it. Every |
| Tx:15.55 | to eternity and to the Mind of God. And it is only there love has | meaning, and only there can it be understood. |
| Tx:15.60 | for here there is no conflict. In the world of scarcity, love has no | meaning, and peace is impossible. For gain and loss are both |
| Tx:15.61 | In the holy instant, the laws of God prevail, and only they have | meaning. The laws of this world cease to hold any meaning at all. |
| Tx:15.61 | and only they have meaning. The laws of this world cease to hold any | meaning at all. When the Son of God accepts the laws of God as what |
| Tx:15.63 | Self, you will learn to understand Selfhood. And therein is love's | meaning understood. But remember that understanding is of the mind |
| Tx:15.84 | of God. And let Him Whose teaching is only of God teach you the only | meaning of relationships. For God created the only relationship which |
| Tx:15.84 | of relationships. For God created the only relationship which has | meaning, and that is His relationship with you. |
| Tx:15.86 | it impossible. For communication must be unlimited in order to have | meaning, and deprived of meaning, it will not satisfy you completely. |
| Tx:15.86 | must be unlimited in order to have meaning, and deprived of | meaning, it will not satisfy you completely. Yet it remains the only |
| Tx:15.92 | release. The time of Christ we celebrate together, for it has no | meaning if we are apart. |
| Tx:15.102 | asked by Him. In His Presence, the whole idea of sacrifice loses all | meaning. For He is Host to God. And you need but invite Him in Who is |
| Tx:15.106 | It is impossible to deny what love is and still recognize it. The | meaning of love lies in what you have cast outside yourself, and it |
| Tx:15.106 | of love lies in what you have cast outside yourself, and it has no | meaning at all apart from you. It is what you preferred to keep that |
| Tx:15.106 | at all apart from you. It is what you preferred to keep that has no | meaning, while all that you would keep away holds all the meaning of |
| Tx:15.106 | has no meaning, while all that you would keep away holds all the | meaning of the universe and holds the universe together in its |
| Tx:15.106 | the meaning of the universe and holds the universe together in its | meaning. For unless the universe were joined in you, it would be |
| Tx:15.106 | it would be apart from God, and to be without Him is to be without | meaning. |
| Tx:16.7 | The | meaning of love is lost in any relationship which looks to weakness |
| Tx:16.7 | and hopes to find love there. The power of love, which is its | meaning, lies in the strength of God, which hovers over it and |
| Tx:16.12 | of what miracles mean. And if you could understand their | meaning, their attributes could hardly cause you perplexity. |
| Tx:16.30 | lies in looking at it. It would be impossible not to know the | meaning of love except for this. For the special love relationship, |
| Tx:16.30 | except for this. For the special love relationship, in which the | meaning of love is lost, is undertaken solely to offset the hate but |
| Tx:16.31 | symbols stand for something else, and the symbol of love is without | meaning if love is everything. You will go through this last undoing |
| Tx:16.45 | a direction exactly opposite of what is true. In Heaven, where the | meaning of love is known, love is the same as union. Here, where the |
| Tx:16.54 | form to take the place of God at the expense of content. There is no | meaning in the form, and there will never be. The special |
| Tx:16.54 | the sign that form has triumphed over content and love has lost its | meaning. Would you want this to be possible, even apart from its |
| Tx:16.57 | delusion lies simply in the fantasy of destruction of love's | meaning. And unless love's meaning is restored to you, you cannot |
| Tx:16.57 | in the fantasy of destruction of love's meaning. And unless love's | meaning is restored to you, you cannot know yourself, who shares its |
| Tx:16.57 | meaning is restored to you, you cannot know yourself, who shares its | meaning. Separation is only the decision not to know yourself. Its |
| Tx:16.59 | ego. To the ego unless a relationship has special value, it has no | meaning, and it perceives all love as special. Yet this cannot be |
| Tx:16.59 | love as He would have it be and gave it as it is. Love has no | meaning except as its Creator defined it by His Will. It is |
| Tx:16.61 | The special relationship is totally without | meaning without a body. And if you value it, you must also value the |
| Tx:16.64 | the special relationship. Without this illusion, there can be no | meaning you would still seek here. |
| Tx:16.71 | Shades of the past envelop it and make it what it is. It has no | meaning in the present, and if it means nothing now, it cannot have |
| Tx:16.71 | in the present, and if it means nothing now, it cannot have any real | meaning at all. How can you change the past except in fantasy? And |
| Tx:17.5 | what truth means from the perspective of illusions? Truth has no | meaning in illusion. The frame of reference for its meaning must be |
| Tx:17.5 | Truth has no meaning in illusion. The frame of reference for its | meaning must be itself. When you try to bring truth to illusions, you |
| Tx:17.12 | is the end of dreams and with the closing of the dream will have no | meaning. Who awake in Heaven could dream that there could ever be |
| Tx:17.24 | now. Yet the frame of reference to which the present is referred for | meaning is an illusion of the past in which those elements which fit |
| Tx:17.38 | pictures only that you compare, or the comparison is wholly without | meaning. Remember that it is the picture that is the gift. And only |
| Tx:17.39 | itself, seeing at last that, unprotected by the frame, it has no | meaning. |
| Tx:17.41 | your little picture, wholly without value and entirely deprived of | meaning. |
| Tx:17.42 | His rightful place and you to yours, you will experience again the | meaning of relationship and know it to be true. Let us ascend in |
| Tx:17.45 | In its unholy condition, your goal was all that seemed to give it | meaning. Now it seems to make no sense. Many relationships have been |
| Tx:17.60 | becomes the useless from this point of view. The situation now has | meaning, but only because the goal has made it meaningful. |
| Tx:17.65 | impossible. For if you shift part of the problem elsewhere, the | meaning of the problem must be lost, and the solution to the problem |
| Tx:17.65 | must be lost, and the solution to the problem is inherent in its | meaning. Is it not possible that all your problems have been solved, |
| Tx:17.71 | For it shares the purpose of your whole relationship and derives its | meaning from it. |
| Tx:17.74 | or an extreme example of what every situation is meant to be. The | meaning which the Holy Spirit's purpose has given it is also given to |
| Tx:17.74 | the shining example, the clear and unequivocal demonstration of the | meaning of every relationship and every situation, seen as a whole. |
| Tx:18.26 | but only of what you have made of it. You are advancing to love's | meaning and away from all illusions in which you have surrounded it. |
| Tx:18.41 | difference between truth and illusion, the Atonement would have no | meaning. The holy instant, your holy relationship, the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:18.54 | source of your guilt. You have done this to a thing that has no | meaning, proclaiming it to be the dwelling-place of the Son of God |
| Tx:18.75 | one Creator for everything and needing the whole to give them any | meaning, for by themselves they do mean nothing. Nor have they any |
| Tx:18.78 | to everything created like itself. Its total lack of limit is its | meaning. It is completely impartial in its giving, encompassing only |
| Tx:18.96 | Love is not learned. Its | meaning lies in itself. And learning ends when you have recognized |
| Tx:18.96 | meaningless, replaced forever by the knowledge of love and its one | meaning. |
| Tx:19.88 | for they must stand for something other than themselves. Their | meaning cannot lie in them but must be sought in what they represent. |
| Tx:19.88 | idea which they reflect. Confronted with such seeming uncertainty of | meaning, judge it not. Remember the holy Presence of the One given to |
| Tx:19.110 | gives this world and the long journey through this world whatever | meaning lies in them. Beyond this they are meaningless. You stand |
| Tx:20.1 | For Easter is the sign of peace, not pain. A slain Christ has no | meaning. But a risen Christ becomes the symbol of the Son of God's |
| Tx:20.23 | the universe of truth, becomes your guide. To it you turn to ask the | meaning of the universe. And of the one blind thing in all the seeing |
| Tx:20.24 | to make its answer true. You asked this puff of madness for the | meaning of your unholy relationship and adjusted it according to its |
| Tx:20.25 | hold and raise your eyes unto your strong companion, in whom the | meaning of your freedom lies. He seemed to be crucified beside you. |
| Tx:20.40 | would see the face of Christ and yet insist that judgment still has | meaning? For this insistence is of those who do not see. Vision or |
| Tx:20.45 | The | meaning of the Son of God lies solely in his relationship with his |
| Tx:20.47 | are offered, and any relationship in which they enter has lost its | meaning. They live in secrecy, hating the sunlight and happy in the |
| Tx:20.57 | You have a real relationship, and it has | meaning. It is as like your real relationship with God as equal |

| Tx:22.32 | Only the form of error attracts the ego. | Meaning it does not recognize and does not know if it is there or |
| Tx:22.32 | error in perception, a distorted fragment of the whole, without the | meaning that the whole would give. And yet mistakes, regardless of |

| Tx:24.39 | salvation. Only this is certain in this shifting world which has no | meaning in reality: when peace is not with you entirely and when you |
| Tx:24.41 | and the whole contributes nothing to the parts to give them | meaning. |
| Tx:24.51 | not His Mind about His Son with passing circumstance, which has no | meaning in eternity where He abides and you with Him. Your brother is |
| Tx:24.66 | but temporal has no effect. Only the purpose that you see in it has | meaning, and if that is true, its safety rests secure. If not, it has |
| Tx:24.67 | “What is it for?” The answer makes it what it is for you. It has no | meaning of itself, yet you can give reality to it according to the |

| Tx:25.24 | could not have been created by the Mind to which perception has no | meaning. Yet are His laws reflected everywhere. Not that the world |
| Tx:25.37 | of the other. Each is meaningless alone, but seems to draw a | meaning from the other. Each depends upon the other for whatever |
| Tx:25.52 | this world. And nothing that the world believes as true has any | meaning in His Mind at all. What makes no sense and has no meaning is |
| Tx:25.52 | has any meaning in His Mind at all. What makes no sense and has no | meaning is insanity. And what is madness cannot be the truth. If one |
| Tx:25.52 | but one Thought of His is true, then all beliefs the world gives any | meaning to are false and make no sense at all. This is the choice you |
| Tx:25.61 | salvation rests, the vantage point from which the Holy Spirit gives | meaning and direction to the plan in which your special function has |
| Tx:26.5 | makes it meaningful. Without your special function has this world no | meaning for you. Yet it can become a treasure house as rich and |
| Tx:26.20 | is. Salvation is a borderland where place and time and choice have | meaning still, and yet it can be seen that they are temporary, out of |
| Tx:26.21 | of the truth upon illusion, of knowledge on perception—it has no | meaning and does not exist. This is not your decision. It is but a |
| Tx:26.48 | but only known. What is perceived takes many forms, but none has | meaning. Brought to truth, its senselessness is quite apparent. Kept |
| Tx:26.48 | is quite apparent. Kept apart from truth, it seems to have a | meaning and be real. |
| Tx:26.53 | Nothing gives | meaning where no meaning is. And truth needs no defense to make it |
| Tx:26.53 | Nothing gives meaning where no | meaning is. And truth needs no defense to make it true. Illusions |
| Tx:26.57 | with God. It is not understood apart from Him and therefore has no | meaning in this world. |
| Tx:26.62 | were made to serve. And from their purpose, they derive whatever | meaning that they seem to have. God gave to all illusions that were |
| Tx:26.74 | you do not understand it now but will some day. And then its | meaning will be clear. This is not reason, for it is unjust and |
| Tx:26.76 | Be not content with future happiness. It has no | meaning and is not your just reward. For you have cause for freedom |
| Tx:26.86 | how could some be evaluated as unfair? Some then are given | meaning and perceived as sensible. And only some are seen as |
| Tx:27.30 | “weakened-power,” and above all, a “living-death.” And so he has no | meaning to you, for he stands for what is meaningless. He represents |
| Tx:27.41 | holy instant can an honest question honestly be asked. And from the | meaning of the question does the meaningfulness of the answer come. |
| Tx:27.54 | Thus are they means for nothing, for they have a goal without a | meaning. And they share the lack of meaning which their purpose has. |
| Tx:27.54 | for they have a goal without a meaning. And they share the lack of | meaning which their purpose has. |
| Tx:30.41 | His. God knows not form. He cannot answer you in terms which have no | meaning. And your will could not be satisfied with empty forms made |
| Tx:30.52 | attacked but merely looked upon as children's toys without a single | meaning of their own. See one in them, and you will see them all. See |
| Tx:30.75 | are real and not appearances at all. Be not deceived about the | meaning of a fixed belief that some appearances are harder to look |
| Tx:30.82 | Would God have left the | meaning of the world to your interpretation? If He had, it has no |
| Tx:30.82 | meaning of the world to your interpretation? If He had, it has no | meaning. For it cannot be that meaning changes constantly and yet is |
| Tx:30.82 | interpretation? If He had, it has no meaning. For it cannot be that | meaning changes constantly and yet is true. The Holy Spirit looks |
| Tx:30.82 | now means something else. You take away another element, and every | meaning shifts accordingly. |
| Tx:30.83 | according to the roles the script assigns. The fact they have no | meaning in themselves is demonstrated by the ease with which these |
| Tx:30.83 | of experience. And then in looking back you think you see another | meaning in what went before. What have you really done except to show |
| Tx:30.83 | went before. What have you really done except to show there was no | meaning there? But you assigned a meaning in the light of goals that |
| Tx:30.83 | done except to show there was no meaning there? But you assigned a | meaning in the light of goals that change, with every meaning |

| Tx:30.84 | purposes. And this is all the meaning that they have. Can this be | meaning? Can confusion be what meaning means? Perception cannot be in |
| Tx:30.84 | meaning that they have. Can this be meaning? Can confusion be what | meaning means? Perception cannot be in constant flux and make |
| Tx:30.84 | cannot be in constant flux and make allowance for stability of | meaning anywhere. Fear is a judgment never justified. Its presence |
| Tx:30.84 | anywhere. Fear is a judgment never justified. Its presence has no | meaning but to show you wrote a fearful script and are afraid |
| Tx:30.84 | afraid accordingly. But not because the thing you fear has fearful | meaning in itself. |
| Tx:30.85 | you see. You do not have to judge, for you have learned one | meaning has been given everything, and you are glad to see it |
| Tx:30.86 | it is this idea of different goals which makes perception shift and | meaning change. In one united goal does this become impossible, for |
| Tx:30.87 | with you. In symbols which you both can understand, the sacrifice of | meaning is undone. All sacrifice entails the loss of your ability to |
| Tx:30.87 | relationships among events. And looked at separately, they have no | meaning. For there is no light by which they can be seen and |
| Tx:30.87 | they are for cannot be seen. In any thought of loss, there is no | meaning. No one has agreed with you on what it means. It is a part of |
| Tx:30.87 | It is a part of a distorted script which cannot be interpreted with | meaning. It must be forever unintelligible. This is not |
| Tx:30.87 | isolated scripts you write in sleep. Look not to separate dreams for | meaning. Only dreams of pardon can be shared. They mean the same to |
| Tx:31.6 | It cannot rise above the senseless noise of sounds which have no | meaning? God willed not His Son forget Him. And the power of His Will |
| Tx:31.42 | forget all senseless journeys and all goal-less aims. They have no | meaning. You can not escape from what you are. For God is merciful |
| Tx:31.49 | of fear. What is a concept but a thought to which its maker gives a | meaning of his own? Concepts maintain the world. But they cannot be |
| Tx:31.54 | that you chose for both of you, and what he represents has | meaning that was given it by you. It also shows some glimmering of |
| Tx:31.80 | it does not know. And recognizing this, it merely asks, “What is the | meaning of what I behold?” Then is the answer given. And the door |
| W1:I.5 | You are asked only to use them. It is their use which will give them | meaning to you and show you they are true. Remember only this—you |
| W1:3.1 | you see it. Some of the things you see may have emotionally-charged | meaning for you. Try to lay such feelings aside, and merely use these |
| W1:7.3 | It is the reason why you have given everything you see all the | meaning that it has for you. |
| W1:10.6 | oddly assorted procession going by, which has little if any personal | meaning to you. As each one crosses your mind, say: |
| W1:13.1 | Actually, a meaningless world is impossible. Nothing without | meaning exists. However, it does not follow that you will not think |
| W1:13.1 | follow that you will not think you perceive something that has no | meaning. On the contrary, you will be particularly likely to think |
| W1:13.2 | in which God and the ego “challenge” each other as to whose | meaning is to be written in the empty space which meaninglessness |
| W1:14.7 | can only be in your own mind apart from His. Therefore, it has no | meaning. In recognition of this fact, conclude the practice periods |
| W1:15.2 | the process of image-making which you call seeing will not have much | meaning for you. You will begin to understand it when you have seen |
| W1:25.1 | Purpose is | meaning. Today's idea explains why nothing you see means anything. |
| W1:25.1 | become unified. It is in recognizing this that what you see is given | meaning. |
| W1:28.3 | it is, rather than telling it what it is. You are not binding its | meaning to your tiny experience of tables, nor are you limiting its |
| W1:39.11 | However you elect to use it, the idea should be stated so that its | meaning remains that your holiness is your salvation. |
| W1:43.2 | the restoration of his holiness to his awareness. Perception has no | meaning. Yet does the Holy Spirit give it a meaning very close to |
| W1:43.2 | Perception has no meaning. Yet does the Holy Spirit give it a | meaning very close to God's. Healed perception becomes the means by |
| W1:44.8 | your happiest accomplishment. It is also the only one that has any | meaning because it is the only one that has any use to you at all. |
| W1:51.2 | The reason this is so is that I see nothing, and nothing has no | meaning. It is necessary that I recognize this, that I may learn to |
| W1:51.2 | the place of vision. I must let it go by realizing that it has no | meaning so that vision may take its place. |
| W1:51.3 | [2] I have given what I see all the | meaning it has for me. I have judged everything I look upon. And it |
| W1:53.2 | do not mean anything, the world which pictures them can have no | meaning. What is producing this world is insane, and so is what it |
| W1:53.3 | it. And I do not choose to value what is totally insane and has no | meaning. |
| W1:53.5 | world exist if God did not create it? He is the Source of all | meaning, and everything that is real is in His Mind. It is in my mind |
| W1:76.1 | lies not there. While you would seek for it in things that have no | meaning, you bind yourself to laws that make no sense. Thus do you |
| W1:76.6 | that you have made in opposition to His Will. Your magic has no | meaning. What it is meant to save does not exist. Only what it is |
| W1:R2.3 | Realize that, whatever form such thoughts may take, they have no | meaning and no power. Replace them with your determination to |
| W1:95.14 | yourself again, slowly and thoughtfully, attempting to allow the | meaning of the words to sink into your mind, replacing false ideas: |
| W1:95.16 | Repeat this several times, and then attempt to feel the | meaning which the words convey. You are One Self, united and secure |
| W1:96.3 | Problems that have no | meaning cannot be resolved within the framework they are set. Two |
| W1:98.6 | purpose with the promise of complete success. And since time has no | meaning, you are being asked for nothing in return for everything. |
| W1:105.3 | giving means pervades all levels of the world you see. It strips all | meaning from the gifts you give and leaves you nothing in the ones |
| W1:108.3 | single perception, based upon one frame of reference from which one | meaning comes. |
| W1:110.2 | If you remain as God created you, fear has no | meaning, evil is not real, and misery and death do not exist. Today's |
| W1:121.1 | Here is the answer to your search for peace. Here is the key to | meaning in a world which seems to make no sense. Here is the way to |
| W1:127.2 | Love's | meaning is obscure to anyone who thinks that love can change. He does |
| W1:127.3 | Love cannot judge. As it is one itself, it looks on all as one. Its | meaning lies in oneness. And it must elude the mind that thinks of it |
| W1:127.4 | there is no difference in what you are and what love is. Love's | meaning is your own, and shared by God Himself. For what you are is |
| W1:127.5 | No laws the world obeys can help you grasp love's | meaning. What the world believes was made to hide love's meaning and |
| W1:127.5 | love's meaning. What the world believes was made to hide love's | meaning and to keep it dark and secret. There is not one principle |
| W1:127.8 | He will abide with you as you allow His Voice to teach love's | meaning to your clean and open mind. And He will bless the lesson |
| W1:129.3 | where love endures forever, hate cannot exist, and vengeance has no | meaning? Is it loss to find all things you really want and know they |
| W1:129.9 | light one by one until where one begins, another ends, losing all | meaning as they blend in one. |
| W1:131.11 | dear, with true ideas arising in the place of thoughts which have no | meaning, no effect, and neither source nor substance in the truth. |
| W1:131.15 | and it is this request you make today. Nothing but this has any | meaning now; no other goal is valued now nor sought; nothing before |
| W1:132.4 | your mind. The world is nothing in itself. Your mind must give it | meaning. And what you behold upon it are your wishes, acted out so |
| W1:132.5 | what was made already, hardly waiting for your thoughts to give it | meaning. Yet in truth you found exactly what you looked for when you |
| W1:134.1 | Let us review the | meaning of “forgive,” for it is apt to be distorted and to be |
| W1:134.13 | Forgiveness must be practiced, for the world cannot perceive its | meaning nor provide a guide to teach you its beneficence. There is no |
| W1:134.15 | an hour twice today and spend it with the Guide Who understands the | meaning of forgiveness and was sent to us to teach it. Let us ask of |
| W1:134.19 | through the day, for there will be so many times when you forget its | meaning and attack yourself. When this occurs, allow your mind to see |
| W1:136.1 | seems to serve. For then he understands as well its purpose has no | meaning. Being causeless and without a meaningful intent of any kind, |
| W1:R4.6 | our minds to understand the lessons that we read and see the | meaning which they offer us. |
| W1:R4.10 | using time for its intended purpose. Let each word shine with the | meaning God has given it as it was given to you through His Voice. |
| W1:152.3 | yet accept both parts of it. Without the first, the second has no | meaning, but without the second is the first no longer true. Truth |
| W1:152.3 | as what is true, then part of truth is false, and truth has lost its | meaning. Nothing but the truth is true, and what is false is false. |
| W1:153.9 | without all thought or wish or dream in which attack has any | meaning. Now we cannot fear, for we have left all fearful thoughts |
| W1:161.4 | mind is one. Such is the truth. Yet do these thoughts make clear the | meaning of creation? Do these words bring perfect clarity with them |
| W1:168.2 | If you but knew the | meaning of His Love, hope and despair would be impossible, for hope |
| W1:168.3 | all memories the sleeping mind forgot; all certainty of what love's | meaning is. |
| W1:169.9 | to words which explain what is to come is past already. Yet what | meaning can the words convey to those who count the hours still and |
| W1:R5.8 | I must understand uncertainty and pain, although I know they have no | meaning. Yet a savior must remain with those he teaches, seeing what |
| W1:R5.15 | We use the words, and try and try again to go beyond them to their | meaning, which is far beyond their sound. The sound grows dim and |
| W1:R5.15 | The sound grows dim and disappears as we approach the Source of | meaning. It is here that we find rest. |
| W1:183.4 | Repeat the Name of God and little names have lost their | meaning. No temptation but becomes a nameless and unwanted thing |
| W1:183.7 | occupies our minds, the only wish we have, the only sound with any | meaning, and the only name of everything that we desire to see; of |
| W1:184.3 | and thus reality was given them as well. For what is named is given | meaning and will then be seen as meaningful, a cause of true effects |
| W1:184.7 | Learning which stops with what the world would teach stops short of | meaning. In its proper place, it serves but as a starting point from |
| W1:184.10 | real, but only to proclaim its unreality in terms which still have | meaning in the world which darkness rules. |
| W1:184.11 | uses all of them, but He does not forget Creation has One Name, One | Meaning, and a single Source Which unifies all things within Itself. |
| W1:184.13 | No one can fail who seeks the | meaning of the Name of God. Experience must come to supplement the |
| W1:185.4 | bring. Sometimes it takes the form of union, but only the form. The | meaning must escape the dream, for compromising is the goal of |
| W1:186.3 | Today's idea may seem quite sobering until you see its | meaning. All it says is that your Father still remembers you and |
| W1:187.3 | you look upon. Herein is the idea of giving clarified and given | meaning. Now you can perceive that by your giving is your store |
| W1:192.3 | Creation cannot even be conceived of in the world. It has no | meaning here. Forgiveness is the closest it can come to earth. For |
| W1:196.2 | But you can learn to see these foolish applications and deny the | meaning they appear to have. |
| W1:197.6 | before He snatches them away again in death. For death will have no | meaning for you then. |
| W1:198.7 | This world has many seeming separate haunts where mercy has no | meaning and attack appears as justified. Yet all are one—a place |
| W1:200.4 | your happiness in foreign places and in alien forms which have no | meaning to you, though you sought to make them meaningful. This world |
| W1:R6.10 | instructs in quiet, speaks of peace, and gives our thoughts whatever | meaning they may have. |

| Tx:7.96 | means for keeping it, and you have done so. Disobeying God's Will is | meaningful only to the insane. In truth it is impossible. Your |
| Tx:8.6 | The first change that must be introduced is a change in direction. A | meaningful curriculum cannot be inconsistent. If it is planned by two |
| Tx:8.75 | sense, because sickness is not what the body is for. Sickness is | meaningful only if the two basic premises on which the ego's |
| Tx:9.27 | The only | meaningful contribution the therapist can make is to present an |
| Tx:10.45 | has included you in His Autonomy. Can you believe that autonomy is | meaningful apart from Him? The belief in ego autonomy is costing you |
| Tx:10.53 | by breaking it up into small and disconnected parts without | meaningful relationships and thus without meaning. The ego will |
| Tx:12.26 | in the end believes that the past is the only aspect of time that is | meaningful. You will remember that we said its emphasis on guilt |
| Tx:12.33 | They make up a private world which cannot be shared. For they are | meaningful only to their maker, and so they have no meaning at all. |
| Tx:13.89 | creation to do what must be done before that knowledge would be | meaningful to you. God breaks no barriers; neither did He make them. |
| Tx:14.21 | through not communicating holds enough of love to make it | meaningful if its interpreter is not its maker. You who made it are |
| Tx:17.60 | The situation now has meaning, but only because the goal has made it | meaningful. |
| Tx:17.64 | solved, the problem would be gone. And the situation would have been | meaningful to you because the interference in the way of |
| Tx:19.1 | everyone involved, for only thus the situation is perceived as | meaningful and as a whole. And everyone must be involved in it, or |
| Tx:21.32 | have need of them no longer. For faith and vision and belief are | meaningful only before the state of certainty is reached. In Heaven |
| Tx:21.48 | it to you how loudly it is proclaimed? The senseless is not made | meaningful by repetition and by clamor. The quiet way is open. Follow |
| Tx:21.54 | must be a part of you that knows His Will and shares it. It is not | meaningful to ask if what must be is so. But it is meaningful to ask |
| Tx:21.54 | it. It is not meaningful to ask if what must be is so. But it is | meaningful to ask why you are unaware of what is so, for this must |
| Tx:23.19 | brought to light, though never understood. Chaotic laws are hardly | meaningful and therefore out of reason's sphere. Yet they appear to |
| Tx:25.47 | himself, and so they must be one. Forgiveness is the only function | meaningful in time. It is the means the Holy Spirit uses to translate |
| Tx:25.55 | a view of what the Father and the Son must be to make that viewpoint | meaningful and sane. |
| Tx:25.56 | in which the fact that God is not insane appears most sensible and | meaningful to you. The content is the same. The form is suited to |
| Tx:25.67 | it is not true? It is extremely hard for those who still believe sin | meaningful to understand the Holy Spirit's justice. |
| Tx:26.5 | might see a purpose in the world that gives it sense and makes it | meaningful. Without your special function has this world no meaning |
| Tx:26.30 | are but two directions you can take while time remains and choice is | meaningful. For never will another road be made except the way to |
| Tx:26.59 | the firm conviction that ideas can leave their source made real and | meaningful. And from this error does the world of sin and sacrifice |
| Tx:27.42 | but ask of whom is sacrifice demanded, asking not if sacrifice is | meaningful at all. And so unless the answer tells “of whom,” it will |
| Tx:30.87 | different things? The Holy Spirit's goal gives one interpretation, | meaningful to you and to your brother. Thus can you communicate with |
| W1:I.1 | as the text is necessary as a background to make these exercises | meaningful. Yet it is the exercises which will make the goal |
| W1:4.3 | first steps toward the goal of separating the meaningless from the | meaningful. It is a first attempt in the long-range purpose of |
| W1:4.3 | purpose of learning to see the meaningless as outside you and the | meaningful within. It is also the beginning of training your mind to |
| W1:19.5 | will ultimately make the recognition of lack of order in miracles | meaningful to you. |
| W1:25.2 | You perceive the world and everything in it as | meaningful in terms of ego goals. These goals have nothing to do with |
| W1:25.4 | to reach him for. And it is this that makes your contact with him | meaningful or not. |
| W1:126.8 | giver and receiver are the same. You will need help to make this | meaningful because it is so alien to the thoughts to which you are |
| W1:134.10 | will you see alternatives for choice in terms which render choosing | meaningful and keep your mind as free of guilt and pain as God |
| W1:135.11 | hope of healing, for you fail to see where hope must lie if it be | meaningful. |
| W1:135.20 | but your present trust direct the future, and this life becomes a | meaningful encounter with the truth that only your defenses would |
| W1:136.1 | as well its purpose has no meaning. Being causeless and without a | meaningful intent of any kind, it cannot be at all. When this is |
| W1:140.9 | succeed to the extent to which we realize that there can never be a | meaningful distinction made between what is untrue and equally |
| W1:164.1 | He hears the song of Heaven and the Voice of God more clear, more | meaningful, more near. |
| W1:169.10 | theme which runs throughout salvation, holding all its parts in | meaningful relationships, the course it runs directed, and its |
| W1:R5.4 | one but clarifies some aspect of this thought or helps it be more | meaningful, more personal and true, and more descriptive of the holy |
| W1:184.3 | as well. For what is named is given meaning and will then be seen as | meaningful, a cause of true effects with consequence inherent in |
| W1:200.4 | forms which have no meaning to you, though you sought to make them | meaningful. This world is not where you belong. You are a stranger |
| M:8.6 | gift of its Teacher—the understanding that only two categories are | meaningful in sorting out the messages the mind receives from what |
meaningfully (7) | ||
| Tx:2.111 | because he is not his own creation. He can, however, apply it | meaningfully and at any time to everything he has created and retain |
| Tx:5.8 | is an idea. How, then, is it possible that giving and losing can be | meaningfully associated? |
| Tx:7.25 | more than I did. It was created to be shared and therefore cannot be | meaningfully perceived as belonging to anyone at the expense of |
| Tx:20.61 | but neither is it sinless. As nothing, which it is, the body cannot | meaningfully be invested with attributes of Christ or of the ego. |
| Tx:21.39 | for your good. But “good” and “deprivation” are opposites and cannot | meaningfully join in any way. It is like saying that the moon and sun |
| W1:184.5 | goal by which communication is achieved and concepts can be | meaningfully shared. |

| Tx:1.92 | such as “up” and “down” are meaningful. Ultimately, space is as | meaningless as time. The concept is really one of space-time belief. |
| Tx:2.27 | is properly employed in the service of withdrawing from the | meaningless. It is not a device for escape, but for consolidation. |
| Tx:2.98 | resolve the basic conflict through the concept of mastery of fear is | meaningless. In fact it asserts the power of fear by the simple |
| Tx:3.13 | persecuted His own Son on behalf of salvation. The very words are | meaningless. |
| Tx:3.38 | separation cannot but conflict. This is because they are essentially | meaningless to each other. |
| Tx:3.44 | to know. This places it in the Soul's service, where perception is | meaningless. The superconscious is the level of the mind which wills |
| Tx:3.56 | has been accepted, prayer in the usual sense becomes utterly | meaningless. Essentially, a prayer for forgiveness is nothing more |
| Tx:4.82 | threat, and being unable to realize that “a little knowledge” is a | meaningless phrase since “all” and “a little” in this context are the |
| Tx:5.5 | obeys and therefore honors only the laws of God. To Him, getting is | meaningless and giving is all. Having everything, the Soul holds |
| Tx:5.22 | the sense that its creative power is unlimited, but choice itself is | meaningless. |
| Tx:5.36 | its concept. Delay is obviously a time idea. Both time and delay are | meaningless in eternity. We have said before that the Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:5.60 | not of God. It is the symbol of the attack on God. This is a totally | meaningless concept except to the ego, but do not underestimate the |
| Tx:5.82 | The Holy Spirit, Who speaks for God in time, also knows that time is | meaningless. He reminds you of this in every passing moment of time, |
| Tx:6.24 | Each one must learn to teach that all forms of rejection are utterly | meaningless. The separation is the notion of rejection. As long as |
| Tx:6.52 | which have been achieved. When they are perfect, abilities are | meaningless. It is curious that the perfect must now be perfected. In |
| Tx:6.63 | of you. To be of one mind is meaningful, but to be of one body is | meaningless. By the laws of mind, then, the body is meaningless. To |
| Tx:6.63 | of one body is meaningless. By the laws of mind, then, the body is | meaningless. To the Holy Spirit, there is no order of difficulty in |
| Tx:6.64 | more and nothing less. Without a range, an order of difficulty is | meaningless, and there must be no range in what you offer to each |
| Tx:7.6 | Spirit has the task of translating the useless into the useful, the | meaningless into the meaningful, and the temporary into the timeless. |
| Tx:7.25 | to anyone at the expense of another. Such a perception makes it | meaningless by eliminating or overlooking its real and only meaning. |
| Tx:7.37 | Without this recognition, you have made the laws themselves | meaningless to you. Yet the laws are not meaningless, since all |
| Tx:7.37 | made the laws themselves meaningless to you. Yet the laws are not | meaningless, since all meaning is contained by them and in them. |
| Tx:7.60 | the apparent conflict which they engender by perceiving conflict as | meaningless. We said before that the Holy Spirit perceives the |
| Tx:7.60 | the Holy Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is, and it is | meaningless. The Holy Spirit does not want you to understand |
| Tx:7.60 | conflict; He wants you to realize that, because conflict is | meaningless, it cannot be understood. We have already said that |
| Tx:7.66 | would justify it, and it cannot be justified. You cannot make the | meaningless meaningful. This can only be an insane attempt. |
| Tx:8.29 | from within. The guidance must [become] what you want, or it will be | meaningless to you. That is why rehabilitation is a collaborative |
| Tx:8.76 | same data, does not bother to analyze them at all. If the data are | meaningless, there is no point in considering them. The function of |
| Tx:8.76 | which are true. There is no point in trying to make sense out of | meaningless data. Any way you handle them results in nothing. The |
| Tx:8.99 | and no sacrifices. In the security of reality, fear is totally | meaningless. To deny what is can only seem to be fearful. Fear cannot |
| Tx:8.104 | you will not create. Opposing orders of reality make reality | meaningless, and reality is meaning. |
| Tx:9.13 | appeal to “mysteries” and begins to insist that you must accept the | meaningless to save yourself. Many have tried to do this in my name, |
| Tx:9.21 | to teach that they are not real and that anything they contain is | meaningless. The unhealed healer cannot do this, because he does not |
| Tx:9.37 | anything the world has to offer. Everything else would be totally | meaningless. God's meaning is incomplete without you, and you are |
| Tx:9.43 | granted there, and you do not ask, “Who granted it?” The question is | meaningless within the ego's thought system, because it opens the |
| Tx:9.44 | God, He knows it to be true. If it does not, He knows that it is | meaningless. |
| Tx:9.49 | that the littleness is real. Without this belief, grandiosity is | meaningless, and you could not possibly want it. The essence of |
| Tx:9.88 | that is not under them does not exist. “Laws of chaos” are | meaningless by definition. Creation is perfectly lawful, and the |
| Tx:9.105 | only because He has given it to you. Your gifts to yourself are | meaningless, but your gifts to your creations are like His because |
| Tx:10.9 | Infinity is | meaningless without you, and you are meaningless without God. There |
| Tx:10.9 | Infinity is meaningless without you, and you are | meaningless without God. There is no end to God and His Son, for we |
| Tx:10.41 | fact, it contains exactly the contradiction in terms which makes it | meaningless. “Dynamics” implies the power to do something, and the |
| Tx:10.54 | concludes that, because of the mistake, consistent truth must be | meaningless. The next step, then, is obvious. If consistent truth is |
| Tx:10.54 | meaningless. The next step, then, is obvious. If consistent truth is | meaningless, inconsistency must be true if truth has meaning. Holding |
| Tx:11.7 | does not change. Although your interpretations of reality are | meaningless in your divided state, His remain consistently true. He |
| Tx:11.12 | fear conceals to clear-cut, unequivocal predominance, fear becomes | meaningless. You have denied its power to conceal love, which was its |
| Tx:14.19 | guiltlessness apart, for your belief that you can have them both is | meaningless. All you have done by keeping them apart is lose their |
| Tx:14.22 | in your alien language. He will not attempt to communicate the | meaningless. But He will separate out all that has meaning, dropping |
| Tx:14.39 | It merely vanishes because it is not true. Different realities are | meaningless, for reality must be one. It cannot change with time or |
| Tx:14.53 | analyze it, approving its importance. Yet they but study form with | meaningless content. For their teacher is senseless, though careful |
| Tx:15.108 | no despair darken the joy of Christmas, for the time of Christ is | meaningless apart from joy. Let us join in celebrating peace by |
| Tx:16.30 | it. For it is the attempt to balance hate with love that makes love | meaningless to you. The extent of the split that lies in this you do |
| Tx:16.55 | at all upon it. See in the special relationship nothing more than a | meaningless attempt to raise other gods before Him and by worshiping |
| Tx:17.4 | the other part. To fragment truth is to destroy it by rendering it | meaningless. Orders of reality is a perspective without |
| Tx:17.10 | which opened up the world to beauty will vanish. Perception will be | meaningless when it has been perfected, for everything that has been |
| Tx:18.5 | which seemed to cast you out of Heaven, to shatter knowledge into | meaningless bits of disunited perceptions, and to force you to |
| Tx:18.6 | and the truth. For truth extends inward, where the idea of loss is | meaningless and only increase is conceivable. Do you really think it |
| Tx:18.7 | substance. They fuse and merge and separate in shifting and totally | meaningless patterns which need not be judged at all. To judge them |
| Tx:18.31 | remain in darkness? You are coming home together after a long and | meaningless journey which you undertook apart and which led nowhere. |
| Tx:18.74 | Yet neither sun nor ocean is even aware of all this strange and | meaningless activity. They merely continue, unaware that they are |
| Tx:18.86 | your awareness are little and limited and so fragmented they are | meaningless. From the world of bodies, made by insanity, insane |
| Tx:18.96 | of Him so far transcend all learning that everything you learned is | meaningless, replaced forever by the knowledge of love and its one |
| Tx:19.27 | cannot be corrected. For a mistake which cannot be corrected is | meaningless to Him. |
| Tx:19.51 | absent from love's gentle perception. What love would look upon is | meaningless to fear and quite invisible. Relationships in this world |
| Tx:19.99 | reach the place is not enough. A journey without a purpose is still | meaningless, and even when it is over, it seems to make no sense. How |
| Tx:19.108 | undone. This is the journey's purpose, without which is the journey | meaningless. Here is the peace of God, given to you eternally by Him. |
| Tx:19.110 | was your choice. And no one undertakes to do what he believes is | meaningless. What you had faith in still is faithful and watches over |
| Tx:19.110 | this world whatever meaning lies in them. Beyond this they are | meaningless. You stand together, still without conviction they have a |
| Tx:20.23 | one wild thought, fierce in its arrogance and yet so tiny and so | meaningless it slips unnoticed through the universe of truth, becomes |
| Tx:20.39 | cannot be evaluated. Do you recognize the fear that rises from the | meaningless attempt to judge what lies so far beyond your judgment |
| Tx:20.49 | darkness; a hidden secret room, a tiny spot of senseless mystery, a | meaningless enclosure carefully protected, yet hiding nothing. Here |
| Tx:20.52 | God unholy seemed to be possible, all your relationships were made | meaningless. In that unholy instant, time was born and bodies made to |
| Tx:20.57 | God as equal things are like unto each other. Idolatry is past and | meaningless. Perhaps you fear each other a little yet; perhaps a |
| Tx:20.64 | each one is a choice of purpose, employed on its behalf. Either is | meaningless without the end for which it was intended, nor is it |
| Tx:21.1 | not a cause. And that is why order of difficulty in miracles is | meaningless. Everything looked upon with vision is healed and holy. |
| Tx:21.27 | Apart from this he has no power to create, and what he makes is | meaningless. It changes nothing in creation, depends entirely upon |
| Tx:22.14 | calls on truth, for to deny illusions is to recognize that fear is | meaningless. Into the holy home, where fear is powerless, love enters |
| Tx:22.16 | not disillusionment, but truth. Only to the ego, to which truth is | meaningless, do they appear to be the only alternatives and different |
| Tx:22.19 | illusion cherished and defended against the truth makes all truth | meaningless and all illusions real. Such is the power of belief. It |
| Tx:22.24 | maker. This is the same belief that caused the separation. It is the | meaningless idea that thoughts can leave the thinker's mind, be |
| Tx:22.48 | How weak is fear—how little and how | meaningless! How insignificant before the quiet strength of those |
| Tx:23.4 | for a tiny stirring of guilt's attraction. Would you, for all these | meaningless distractions, lay Heaven aside? Your destiny and purpose |
| Tx:23.9 | and they are nothing. Their joining lies in nothingness; two are as | meaningless as one or as a thousand. The ego joins with nothing, |
| Tx:23.9 | The ego joins with nothing, being nothing. The victory it seeks is | meaningless as is itself. |
| Tx:23.19 | be understood what they are for, because it is their purpose to make | meaningless and to attack the truth. Here are the laws that rule the |
| Tx:23.51 | and easily escaped. Bodies may battle, but the clash of forms is | meaningless. And it is over when you realize it never was begun. How |
| Tx:24.4 | sensible or not. And many senseless outcomes have been reached, and | meaningless decisions have been made and kept hidden to become |
| Tx:25.10 | part of you is separate, the concept of a oneness joined as one is | meaningless. It is apparent that a mind so split could never be the |
| Tx:25.23 | is justified. To the extent to which you recognize that guilt is | meaningless, to that extent will you perceive attack cannot be |
| Tx:25.37 | he is. The need for guilt is gone because it has no purpose and is | meaningless without the goal of sin. Attack and sin are bound as one |
| Tx:25.37 | illusion, each the cause and aim and justifier of the other. Each is | meaningless alone, but seems to draw a meaning from the other. Each |
| Tx:25.53 | real because the Father and the Son are not insane. This world is | meaningless because it rests on sin. Who could create the changeless |
| Tx:25.55 | is not love is sin, and either one perceives the other as insane and | meaningless. Love is the basis for a world perceived as wholly mad to |
| Tx:26.31 | end is [nothing. It] is but a little hindrance to eternity, quite | meaningless to the real Teacher of the world. Yet since you do |
| Tx:26.86 | given meaning and perceived as sensible. And only some are seen as | meaningless. And this denies the fact that all are senseless— |
| Tx:27.29 | it, and weakened power is a contradiction in ideas. Weak strength is | meaningless, and power used to weaken is employed to limit. And |
| Tx:27.30 | And so he has no meaning to you, for he stands for what is | meaningless. He represents a double thought, where half is canceled |
| Tx:27.33 | make exchange of pictures possible until the time when aids are | meaningless and learning done. No learning aid has use which can |
| Tx:28.17 | Only where its cause is given its effects. For sickness is a | meaningless attempt to give effects to causelessness and make it be a |
| Tx:28.41 | in his dream instead of dreamer of your own. Identity in dreams is | meaningless because the dreamer and the dream are one. Who shares a |
| Tx:28.48 | pain and loss, that makes them real. Unshared, they are perceived as | meaningless. The fear is gone from them because you did not give them |
| Tx:28.50 | were made to hear. Yet sights and sounds the body can perceive are | meaningless. It cannot see nor hear. It does not know what seeing is, |
| Tx:29.15 | state confusion really means? Stability to those who are confused is | meaningless, and shift and change become the law on which they |
| Tx:30.42 | stands his holy will to be but what he is. For more than whole is | meaningless. If there were change in him, if he could be reduced to |
| Tx:30.61 | For only then can guilt and sin be seen without a purpose and as | meaningless. |
| Tx:31.50 | A concept of the self is | meaningless, for no one here can see what it is for and therefore |
| Tx:31.57 | to wicked things? Your concept of yourself will still remain quite | meaningless. And you will not perceive that you can interact but with |
| Tx:31.69 | attack. You will perceive them sometimes, but will not see them as | meaningless. And so they come in fearful form, with content still |
| Tx:31.81 | temptation, then, remembering that it is but a wish, insane and | meaningless, to make yourself a thing which you are not. And think as |
| W1:4.3 | is to train you in the first steps toward the goal of separating the | meaningless from the meaningful. It is a first attempt in the |
| W1:4.3 | is a first attempt in the long-range purpose of learning to see the | meaningless as outside you and the meaningful within. It is also the |
| W1:10.3 | began with the idea that the thoughts of which you are aware are | meaningless, outside rather than within, and then stressed their past |
| W1:12.1 | insane world. All these attributes are given it by you. The world is | meaningless in itself. |
| W1:12.7 | But I am upset because I see a | meaningless world. |
| W1:12.8 | What is | meaningless is neither good nor bad. Why, then, should a meaningless |
| W1:12.8 | What is meaningless is neither good nor bad. Why, then, should a | meaningless world upset you? If you could accept the world as |
| W1:12.8 | a meaningless world upset you? If you could accept the world as | meaningless and let the truth be written upon it for you, it would |
| W1:12.8 | it for you, it would make you indescribably happy. But because it is | meaningless, you are impelled to write upon it what you would have it |
| W1:12.8 | you would have it be. It is this you see in it. It is this that is | meaningless in truth. Beneath your words is written the Word of God. |
| W1:13.1 | that it is more specific as to the emotion aroused. Actually, a | meaningless world is impossible. Nothing without meaning exists. |
| W1:13.3 | It is essential, therefore, that you learn to recognize the | meaningless and accept it without fear. If you are fearful, it is |
| W1:13.5 | I am looking at a | meaningless world. |
| W1:13.7 | A | meaningless world engenders fear because I think I am in competition |
| W1:14.1 | The idea for today is, of course, the reason why a | meaningless world is impossible. What God did not create does not |
| W1:14.8 | God did not create a | meaningless world. |
| W1:14.10 | God did not create a | meaningless world. He did not create [specify the situation which is |
| W1:23.1 | that will ever succeed. Nothing else will work; everything else is | meaningless. But this way cannot fail. Every thought you have makes |
| W1:25.1 | see means anything. You do not know what it is for. Therefore it is | meaningless to you. Everything is for your own best interests. That |
| W1:25.5 | you have established for everything. The recognition that they are | meaningless, rather than “good” or “bad,” is the only way to |
| W1:44.6 | have no difficulty in recognizing that its opposition and fears are | meaningless. You might find it helpful to remind yourself from time |
| W1:51.5 | be replaced by what they were intended to replace. My thoughts are | meaningless, but all creation lies in the thoughts I think with God. |
| W1:52.6 | universe than to obscure all that is really mine with my pitiful and | meaningless “private” thoughts? |
| W1:53.2 | [11] My | meaningless thoughts are showing me a meaningless world. Since the |
| W1:53.2 | [11] My meaningless thoughts are showing me a | meaningless world. Since the thoughts of which I am aware do not mean |
| W1:53.3 | [12] I am upset because I see a | meaningless world. Insane thoughts are upsetting. They produce a |
| W1:53.4 | [13] A | meaningless world engenders fear. The totally insane engenders fear |
| W1:53.5 | [14] God did not create a | meaningless world. How can a meaningless world exist if God did not |
| W1:53.5 | [14] God did not create a meaningless world. How can a | meaningless world exist if God did not create it? He is the Source of |
| W1:63.2 | to give him, for it belongs to you. Accept no trivial purpose or | meaningless desire in its place or you will forget your function and |
| W1:66.3 | Today we will try to go past this wholly | meaningless battle and arrive at the truth about your function. We |
| W1:74.8 | There is no will but God's. These conflict thoughts are | meaningless. |
| W1:91.2 | you. And the seeming reality of the darkness makes the idea of light | meaningless. |
| W1:93.3 | a very different reference point from which such idle thoughts are | meaningless. These thoughts are not according to God's Will. These |
| W1:93.6 | God created as eternal. The self you made, evil and full of sin, is | meaningless. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God, and light and joy |
| W1:96.4 | be really part of you. If you are Spirit, then the body must be | meaningless to your reality. |
| W1:104.2 | Today we would remove all | meaningless and self-made gifts which we have placed upon the holy |
| W1:106.2 | you through His appointed Voice, Which silences the thunder of the | meaningless and shows the way to peace to those who cannot see. Be |
| W1:106.3 | today to circumvent the voices of the world; walk lightly past their | meaningless persuasion. Hear them not. Be still today, and listen to |
| W1:122.4 | Here is the perfect answer, given to imperfect questions, | meaningless requests, half-hearted willingness to hear, and less than |
| W1:124.4 | No | meaningless anxieties can come between our faith and our awareness of |
| W1:125.6 | His Word cannot be heard until your mind is quiet for a while and | meaningless desires have been stilled. Await His Word in quiet. There |
| W1:130.7 | and doubt and go beyond them all as one. We will not make a thousand | meaningless distinctions, nor attempt to bring with us a little part |
| W1:131.2 | Goals which are | meaningless are not attained. There is no way to reach them, for the |
| W1:131.2 | no way to reach them, for the means by which you strive for them are | meaningless as they are. Who can use such senseless means and hope |
| W1:131.18 | be a time of special gladness, and refrain from dismal thoughts and | meaningless laments. Salvation's time has come. Today is set by |
| W1:134.2 | except illusions. Truth is God's creation, and to pardon this is | meaningless. All truth belongs to Him, reflects His laws and radiates |
| W1:135.18 | incompatible with your beliefs of your reality. Yet what remains is | meaningless indeed. For it is your reality which is the “threat” that |
| W1:136.1 | be at all. When this is seen, healing is automatic. It dispels this | meaningless illusion by the same approach that carries all of them to |
| W1:136.14 | thoughts of God are quite apart from time. For time is but another | meaningless defense you made against the truth. Yet what God wills is |

| M:11.3 | all problems you have made. These problems are not real, but that is | meaningless to those who believe in them. And everyone believes in |
| M:13.1 | Although in truth the term sacrifice is altogether | meaningless, it does have meaning in the world. Like all things in |

| M:16.1 | To the advanced teacher of God, this question is | meaningless. There is no program, for the lessons in the curriculum |
| M:16.10 | that it is sinful, not that it is dangerous, but merely that it is | meaningless. Rooted in sacrifice and separation, two aspects of one |
| M:18.3 | become the measure of reality. And truth becomes diminutive and | meaningless. Correction has one answer to all this and to the world |

| M:21.5 | to the words they use the power of His Spirit, raising them from | meaningless symbols to the call of Heaven itself. |
| M:22.1 | is the source of a wholly unified perception. Partial Atonement is a | meaningless idea, just as special areas of hell in Heaven is |
| M:22.7 | Son. And to judge His Son is to limit his Father. Both are equally | meaningless. Yet this will not be understood until God's teacher |
| M:24.4 | accomplished, issues such as the validity of reincarnation become | meaningless. Until then they are likely to be merely controversial. |
| M:27.4 | did not make death, because He did not make fear. Both are equally | meaningless to Him. |

| Tx:2.43 | of defenses, only their use for attack is lost. Since this | means they can be used only one way, they become much stronger and |

| Tx:2.57 | All material | means which man accepts as remedies for bodily ills are merely |
| Tx:2.59 | whatever way is most helpful to the receiver[, not the giver]. This | means that a miracle, to attain its full efficacy, must be expressed |
| Tx:2.59 | the recipient can understand without fear. It does not follow by any | means that this is the highest level of communication of which he is |
| Tx:2.63 | is an expression of miracle-mindedness. Miracle-mindedness merely | means right-mindedness in the sense that we are now using it. The |
| Tx:2.65 | of the miracle worker is to accept the Atonement for himself. This | means that he recognizes that mind is the only creative level and |
| Tx:2.69 | temporary. However, as long as time persists, healing is needed as a | means for human protection. This is because healing rests on charity, |
| Tx:2.72 | have thus brought it under your will, where it does not belong. This | means that you feel responsible for it. The level confusion here is |
| Tx:2.103 | occurs, there is usually some will to accomplish, but this is by no | means necessarily undivided. The state does not imply more than a |
| Tx:2.109 | Judgment might be called a process of right evaluation. It simply | means that finally all men will come to understand what is worthy and |
| Tx:3.3 | be more traumatic than beatific. Healing is of God in the end. The | means are being carefully explained to you. Revelation may |
| Tx:3.3 | may occasionally reveal the end to you, but to reach it the | means are needed. |
| Tx:3.20 | will to attack, and therefore they see truly. This is what the Bible | means when it says, “When He shall appear (or be perceived) we shall |
| Tx:3.23 | what the body is. This is what “a sane mind in a sane body” really | means. It does not confuse destruction with innocence because it |
| Tx:3.27 | application that it becomes wisdom. Innocent (or true) perception | means that you never misperceive and always see truly. More simply, |
| Tx:3.27 | that you never misperceive and always see truly. More simply, it | means that you never see what does not really exist. When you lack |
| Tx:3.29 | you will make it true for you. Truth overcomes all error. This | means that if you perceive truly, you are canceling out |
| Tx:3.30 | you can know anything. To know is to be certain. Uncertainty merely | means that you do not know. Knowledge is power because it is certain, |
| Tx:3.31 | not recognize or know yourselves, each other, or God. To recognize | means to “know again,” implying that you knew before. You can see in |
| Tx:3.31 | because perception involves different interpretations, and this | means that it is not whole. The miracle is a way of perceiving, not |
| Tx:3.34 | symbolic and therefore not a device for knowing. It is, however, a | means of right perception, which brings it into the proper domain of |
| Tx:3.51 | however, that I made it clear that the resurrection was the | means for the return to knowledge, which was accomplished by the |
| Tx:3.61 | When the Bible says, “Judge not that ye be not judged” it merely | means that if you judge the reality of others at all, you will be |
| Tx:3.69 | something, it does not mean that the “something” has gone. It merely | means that you do not know where it is. Existence does not depend on |
| Tx:4.7 | they want to protect their thought systems as they are, and learning | means change. Change is always fearful to the separated ones because |
| Tx:4.13 | ego on other egos and therefore interprets their interaction as a | means of ego preservation. I would not be able to devote myself to |
| Tx:4.31 | to convince itself that it is real. “Self esteem” in ego terms | means nothing more than that the ego has deluded itself into |
| Tx:4.32 | The ego literally lives by comparisons. This | means that equality is beyond its grasp and charity becomes |
| Tx:4.37 | contradictory, because validity is an end and behavior is a | means. These cannot be combined logically, because when an end has |
| Tx:4.37 | be combined logically, because when an end has been attained, the | means for its attainment are no longer meaningful. |
| Tx:4.41 | You have never understood what “the Kingdom of Heaven is within you” | means. The reason you have not understood it is because it is not |
| Tx:4.50 | into any mind which truly wants it, but it must want it truly. This | means that it wants it without ambivalence, and this kind of wanting |
| Tx:4.54 | release. God has given you everything. This is the one fact that | means the ego does not exist and which therefore makes it profoundly |
| Tx:4.66 | creation, for Christ is the Son of God. The second coming of Christ | means nothing more than the end of the ego's rule over part of the |
| Tx:4.67 | than you are. That knowledge, and I assure you that it is knowledge, | means that Christ must come into your minds and heal them. Although I |
| Tx:4.87 | that you have already accepted the difference, but you are by no | means convinced as yet. The very fact that you are preoccupied with |
| Tx:4.94 | depends on the specific. It is the part that believes your existence | means you are separate. |
| Tx:4.99 | Abstraction takes joy in application, and that is what creation | means. “How,” “what,” and “to whom” are irrelevant because real |
| Tx:4.100 | The Bible repeatedly states that you should praise God. This hardly | means that you should tell Him how wonderful He is. He has no ego |
| Tx:5.15 | Second, it is incapable of attack and is therefore truly open. This | means that, although it does not engender knowledge, it does not |
| Tx:5.18 | thinking. The Holy Spirit was God's Answer to the separation, the | means by which the Atonement could repair until the whole mind |
| Tx:5.22 | This is a conflict state. It | means that knowledge has been lost, because knowledge is sure. God is |
| Tx:5.23 | as freedom to create, but its application is different. Choosing | means divided will. The Holy Spirit is one way of choosing. This way |
| Tx:5.25 | it a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own Soul?” That | means that if he listens to the wrong voice, he has lost sight of his |
| Tx:5.29 | back into the Oneness in which it was created. Remember that “yoke” | means “join together” and “burden” means “message.” Let us reconsider |
| Tx:5.29 | was created. Remember that “yoke” means “join together” and “burden” | means “message.” Let us reconsider the Biblical statement, “My yoke |
| Tx:5.37 | to mean “don't worry about the future.” That is not what it really | means at all. |
| Tx:5.52 | that I could not atone for myself alone. Listening to one voice | means the will to share the voice in order to hear it yourself. The |
| Tx:5.53 | does not mean that you should submit to violence without protest. It | means that you cannot be hurt and do not want to show your brother |
| Tx:5.53 | hold it against yourself. Teaching is done in many ways: by formal | means, by guidance, and above all by example. Teaching is therapy, |
| Tx:5.53 | guidance, and above all by example. Teaching is therapy, because it | means the sharing of ideas and the awareness that to share them is to |
| Tx:5.59 | impeccable as that of the Holy Spirit, because your mind has all the | means at its disposal to side with Heaven or earth, as it elects. But |
| Tx:5.62 | system, and it speaks for it. Listening to the ego's voice | means that you believe it is possible to attack God. You believe that |
| Tx:5.76 | “As ye sow, so shall ye reap” merely | means that what you believe to be worth cultivating you will |
| Tx:5.77 | to guarantee its survival beyond itself. Actually, all the quotation | means is that the Holy Spirit in later generations retains the power |
| Tx:5.83 | peace whose mind is stayed (or set) on Him,” a statement which | means that God's peace is set in the Holy Spirit because it is fixed |
| Tx:5.84 | less apparent to him. A man who knows what fixation really | means and yet does not yield to it is terribly afraid. |
| Tx:5.85 | is fixed because of the Holy Spirit's irrevocable set. “Irrevocable” | means “cannot be called back or redirected.” The irrevocable nature |
| Tx:5.85 | a mind is fixed in its purpose, it is not clear. Clarity literally | means the state of light, and enlightenment is understanding. |
| Tx:5.86 | does not accord with a point in time. This clearly could have been a | means toward real release from the time belief, had Freud pursued it |
| Tx:5.88 | pessimism, personally as well as theoretically. He tried every | means his very inventive mind could devise to set up a form of |
| Tx:5.92 | and your willingness to side with its separateness. This willingness | means that you do not want to be healed. |
| Tx:6.6 | refuse to consider what they have done to themselves. Projection | means anger, anger fosters assault, and assault promotes fear. The |
| Tx:6.27 | and attack are inevitably related, because projection is always a | means of justifying attack. Anger without projection is impossible. |
| Tx:6.36 | His. There is no conflict anywhere in this perception, because it | means that all perception is guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is |
| Tx:6.47 | Since the Holy Spirit answers truly, He answers for all time, which | means that everyone has the answer now. |
| Tx:6.53 | you in charge of the Kingdom with both a Guide to find it and a | means to keep it. You have a model to follow who will strengthen your |
| Tx:6.65 | it a fearful one indeed. The Holy Spirit sees the body only as a | means of communication and because communicating is sharing, it |
| Tx:6.73 | a contradiction since it is being learned by a conflicted mind. This | means conflicting motivation, and so the lesson cannot be learned |
| Tx:6.79 | This, then, is a step in the direction out of conflict since it | means that alternatives have been considered and one has been chosen |
| Tx:7.4 | to make a “deal,” but it cannot understand that to be like another | means that no deals are possible. To gain you must give, not bargain. |
| Tx:7.18 | it is perfectly understood, but it does need extension because it | means extension. Communication is perfectly direct and perfectly |
| Tx:7.21 | apply them to what you want to learn. Learning is effort, and effort | means will. We have used the term “abilities” in the plural, because |
| Tx:7.31 | the term. Inspiration is the opposite of dispiriting and therefore | means to make joyous. The dispirited are depressed, because they |
| Tx:7.32 | it is undertaken as separate from what already is and perceived as a | means for establishing it. To believe this is possible is to believe |
| Tx:7.39 | more than a framework for developing abilities. It is therefore a | means for developing potentials, which is quite apart from what the |
| Tx:7.46 | consistence, it cannot be inconsistently understood. Understanding | means consistence because God means consistence. Since that is His |
| Tx:7.46 | understood. Understanding means consistence because God | means consistence. Since that is His meaning, it is also yours. Your |
| Tx:7.56 | but it stems from the power of the mind, which the ego denies. This | means that the ego attacks what is preserving it, and this must be a |
| Tx:7.67 | Allowing insanity to enter your minds | means that you have not judged sanity as wholly desirable. If you |
| Tx:7.69 | is your will because it is God's, and nothing that opposes this | means anything at all. Being a perfect accomplishment, the Sonship |
| Tx:7.70 | cannot be partly appreciated. That is why denying any part of it | means you have lost awareness of all of it. |
| Tx:7.78 | Attack could never promote attack unless you perceived it as a | means of depriving you of something you want. Yet you cannot lose |
| Tx:7.96 | If it was His Will that you have it forever, He gave you the | means for keeping it, and you have done so. Disobeying God's Will is |
| Tx:7.104 | not mean that the guide is untrustworthy. In this case, it always | means that the follower is. However, this too is merely a matter of |
| Tx:7.106 | you do not know, because you are confused about what you will. This | means that you are confused about what you are. If you are God's Will |
| Tx:8.5 | with learning outcomes must be a sign of learning failure since it | means that you did not get what you want. The curriculum of the |
| Tx:8.18 | the Holy Spirit teach you how to do this, for you will know what it | means of God Himself. |
| Tx:8.23 | a wrong decision, including you. That is why He has given you the | means for undoing it. Through His power and glory, all your wrong |
| Tx:8.31 | or the will itself is divided or not whole. Your will is the | means by which you determine your own condition, because will is the |
| Tx:8.33 | When your will is not mine, it is not our Father's. This | means that you have imprisoned yours and have not let it be free. Of |
| Tx:8.54 | Remember that the Holy Spirit interprets the body only as a | means of communication. Being the communication link between God and |
| Tx:8.54 | because you do not interpret their bodies and yours solely as a | means of joining their minds and uniting them with yours and mine. |
| Tx:8.56 | the use to which you have put yours. If the body becomes for you a | means which you give to the Holy Spirit to use on behalf of union of |
| Tx:8.61 | ego, it is. Guided by the Holy Spirit, it is not. It becomes only a | means by which the part of the mind you have separated from your Soul |
| Tx:8.65 | and you must be learning amiss. To see a body as anything except a | means of pure extension is to limit your mind and hurt yourself. |
| Tx:8.66 | should be to escape from limitations? To conceive of the body as a | means of attack of any kind and to entertain even the possibility |
| Tx:8.71 | and sickness possible. The ego makes a fundamental confusion between | means and ends, as it always does. Regarding the body as an end, the |
| Tx:8.82 | of joining, taking on the ego's distortions about what joining | means if you are sleeping under its guidance. Yet the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:8.86 | surely begun to realize that this is a very practical course which | means exactly what it says. So does the Bible, if it is properly |
| Tx:8.86 | and its effects but not about love and its results. Thus, “hellfire” | means “burning,” but raising the dead becomes allegorical. Actually, |
| Tx:8.89 | of healing. This is because it is the only level at which healing | means anything. The re-establishing of meaning in a chaotic thought |
| Tx:8.92 | who do not know what truth is. All that this kind of association | means is that you are arbitrarily endowing something quite beyond |
| Tx:9.3 | it, He does not judge it, knowing that nothing it engenders | means anything. |
| Tx:9.7 | it comes from love. Any attempt you make to correct a brother | means that you believe correction by you is possible, and this can |
| Tx:9.33 | they, but they are not less than He is. Would you know what this | means? If what you do to my brother you do to me, and if you do |
| Tx:9.35 | to awaken others. As you see them waken, you will learn what waking | means, and because you have willed to wake them, their gratitude and |
| Tx:9.38 | God's Will is your salvation. Would He not have given you the | means to find it? If He wills you to have it, He must have made it |
| Tx:9.44 | its foundation is not true. Therefore, nothing that arises from it | means anything. The Holy Spirit judges every belief you hold in terms |
| Tx:9.57 | of arrogance. To accept your littleness is arrogant, because it | means that you believe your evaluation of yourself is truer than |
| Tx:9.59 | in your mind and will conflict until you perceive time solely as a | means to regain eternity. You cannot do this as long as you believe |
| Tx:9.87 | that you have removed part of your mind from God's Will, and this | means it is out of control. To be out of control is to be out of |
| Tx:9.93 | for depression is the sign of allegiance to him. Depression | means that you have foresworn God. Men are afraid of blasphemy, but |
| Tx:9.93 | God. Men are afraid of blasphemy, but they do not know what it | means. They do not realize that to deny God is to deny their own |
| Tx:9.95 | is in direct opposition to its own survival. But consider what this | means to you. Unless you are sick, you cannot keep the gods you made, |
| Tx:9.95 | them. Blasphemy, then, is self-destructive, not God-destructive. It | means that you are willing not to know yourself in order to be sick. |
| Tx:9.98 | love for Him, you could not deny Him. Your denial of Him therefore | means that you love Him and that you know He loves you. Remember that |
| Tx:9.100 | that do. Remember, though, that to do this is blasphemy, for it | means that you are looking without love on God and His creation, from |
| Tx:9.103 | for the misery you have made for yourselves. God has given you the | means for undoing what you have made. Listen, and you will learn what |
| Tx:10.45 | as threatening and has twisted even your longing for God into a | means of establishing itself. But do not be deceived by its |
| Tx:10.53 | of wholeness comes only through acceptance, for to analyze | means to separate out. The attempt to understand totality by breaking |
| Tx:10.60 | together. There has been much confusion about what perception | means because the same word is used both for awareness and for the |
| Tx:10.60 | it. And if belief determines perception, you do not perceive what it | means and therefore do not accept it. |
| Tx:10.75 | they do not understand what they perceive, and so they ask what it | means. Do not make the mistake of believing that you understand what |
| Tx:11.4 | to your own mind is not yet fully apparent to you, but this by no | means signifies that it is not perfectly clear. If you maintain that |
| Tx:11.10 | that fear is an appeal for help. This is what recognizing it really | means. If you do not protect it, He will reinterpret it. That is the |
| Tx:11.11 | that fear does not exist in you, for you have in yourself the | means for removing it and have demonstrated this by giving it. Fear |
| Tx:11.22 | obstacle to real vision without looking upon it, for to lay aside | means to judge against. If you will look, the Holy Spirit will judge |
| Tx:11.25 | that he is and are making his error real to both of you. Insistence | means investment, and what you invest in is always related to your |
| Tx:11.52 | is totally unambiguous because the goal is not divided, and the | means and the end are in complete accord. You need offer only |
| Tx:11.96 | past to future. No one who believes this can understand what always | means. And therefore guilt must deprive you of the appreciation of |
| Tx:12.31 | Spirit would release you from it. It is His interpretation of the | means of salvation which you must learn to accept if you would share |
| Tx:12.45 | meet your sight, for all reality leaves no room for any error. This | means that you perceive a brother only as you see him now. His past |
| Tx:13.14 | brings a re-evaluation of everything you cherish, for it is the | means by which the Holy Spirit can separate the false and the true, |
| Tx:13.23 | real relationships at all. Can you expect to use your brothers as a | means to “solve” the past and still to see them as they really are? |
| Tx:13.47 | indeed. Yet in this world, you do not know it. But you have the | means for learning it and seeing it quite clearly. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.53 | has become so twisted and so complex that you cannot see that it | means nothing. He merely looks at its foundation and dismisses it. |
| Tx:13.54 | the foundation on which this most peculiar learning goal depends | means absolutely nothing. It does make sense to you. |
| Tx:13.86 | be received, even as God gave it first to His Son. The first in time | means nothing, but the First in eternity is God the Father, Who is |
| Tx:14.3 | know that they are sinless. The Atonement was established as the | means of restoring guiltlessness to the mind which has denied it and |
| Tx:14.19 | them with each other. And so you do not realize that only one | means anything, and the other is wholly without sense of any kind. |
| Tx:14.20 | You have interpreted the separation as a | means which you have made for breaking your communication with your |
| Tx:14.20 | communication with your Father. The Holy Spirit reinterprets it as a | means of reestablishing what has not been broken but has been made |
| Tx:14.22 | at once, and this must lead to unintelligibility. Yet if one | means nothing and the other everything, only that one is possible for |
| Tx:14.29 | gently turned to your own good, translated by the Holy Spirit from | means of self-destruction to means of preservation and release. His |
| Tx:14.29 | translated by the Holy Spirit from means of self-destruction to | means of preservation and release. His task is mighty, but the power |
| Tx:14.31 | recognize what you see. It is the recognition that nothing you see | means anything alone. Seeing with Him will show you that all meaning, |
| Tx:14.55 | impossible to remember God in secret and alone. For remembering Him | means you are not alone and willing to remember it. Take no thought |
| Tx:14.57 | learned that this identity is shared. The miracle becomes the | means of sharing it. By supplying your identity wherever it is not |
| Tx:14.62 | you. Never believe that any lesson you have learned apart from Him | means anything. |
| Tx:14.63 | and hinder you and everyone around you. The absence of perfect peace | means but one thing: you think you do not will for God's Son what His |
| Tx:14.65 | I do not know what anything, including this, | means. And so I do not know how to respond to it. And I will not use |
| Tx:14.67 | for it is you who made them necessary. And because you did, the | means on which you can depend for miracles has been provided for you. |
| Tx:15.1 | Can you imagine what it | means to have no cares, no worries, no anxieties, but merely to be |
| Tx:15.30 | in you in honor of Him Whose host you are. You know not what love | means because you have sought to purchase it with little gifts, thus |
| Tx:15.35 | you prefer to believe that what God wills takes time. And this | means only that you would rather delay the recognition that His Will |
| Tx:15.40 | is a time in which you receive and give perfect communication. This | means, however, that it is a time in which your mind is open, both to |
| Tx:15.45 | it would be quite apparent to you that you do not know what anything | means. You are afraid of this because you believe that without the |
| Tx:15.47 | You cannot love parts of reality and understand what love | means. If you would love unlike to God, Who knows no special love, |
| Tx:15.86 | meaning, it will not satisfy you completely. Yet it remains the only | means by which you can establish real relationships. |
| Tx:15.87 | and while you think it has a purpose, you will choose to utilize the | means by which it tries to turn its purpose into accomplishment. This |
| Tx:15.91 | body ceases to attract you and when you place no value on it as a | means for getting anything, then there will be no interference in |
| Tx:15.92 | attraction of guilt does stand between them. Neither time nor season | means anything in eternity. But here it is the Holy Spirit's function |
| Tx:15.96 | essential to your thought system that salvation apart from sacrifice | means nothing to you. Your confusion of sacrifice and love is so |
| Tx:15.107 | is destroyed, provided that you see not the body as the necessary | means of communication. And if you understand this lesson, you will |
| Tx:16.2 | and to weaken is always to attack. You do not know what empathizing | means. Yet of this you may be sure—if you will merely sit quietly |
| Tx:16.14 | afraid to acknowledge what He taught you. For this acknowledgment | means that what has happened you do not understand but that you are |
| Tx:16.22 | are immediately accepted as your choice. And this acceptance | means that you are willing to judge yourself accordingly. Cause and |
| Tx:16.64 | of actual disorientation seems to occur. But fear it not, for it | means nothing more than that you have been willing to let go your |
| Tx:16.71 | and make it what it is. It has no meaning in the present, and if it | means nothing now, it cannot have any real meaning at all. How can |
| Tx:17.5 | Think you that you can bring truth to fantasy and learn what truth | means from the perspective of illusions? Truth has no meaning in |
| Tx:17.16 | attempt at union through the body, for only bodies can be seen as | means for vengeance. That bodies are central to all unholy |
| Tx:17.18 | to intrude upon the dream of happiness. Yet consider what this | means—the more reality that enters into the unholy relationship, |
| Tx:17.19 | How can the Holy Spirit bring His interpretation of the body as a | means of communication into relationships whose only purpose is |
| Tx:17.31 | that it is totally insane. And you must realize just what this | means if you would be restored to sanity. The insane protect their |
| Tx:17.55 | with you. Think you not the goal itself will gladly arrange the | means for its accomplishment? It is just this same discrepancy |
| Tx:17.55 | same discrepancy between the purpose that has been accepted and the | means as they stand now which seems to make you suffer, but which |
| Tx:17.55 | are joined in purpose, but remain still separate and divided on the | means. |
| Tx:17.56 | Yet the goal is fixed, firm, and unalterable, and the | means will surely fall in place because the goal is sure. And you |
| Tx:17.59 | no idea what should happen. No goal was set with which to bring the | means in line. And now the only judgment left to make is whether or |
| Tx:17.60 | want to happen is simply that you will perceive the situation as a | means to make it happen. You will therefore make every effort to |
| Tx:17.68 | Every situation in which you find yourself is but a | means to meet the purpose set for your relationship. See it as |
| Tx:17.72 | same purpose called forth the faith in you. And you will see the | means you once employed to lead you to illusions transformed to means |
| Tx:17.72 | the means you once employed to lead you to illusions transformed to | means for truth. [Truth calls for faith, and faith makes room for |
| Tx:17.76 | instantly transforms all situations into one sure and continuous | means for establishing His purpose and demonstrating its reality. |
| Tx:17.78 | only purpose. See only this in every situation, and it will be a | means for bringing only this. |
| Tx:18.19 | dreams, the special relationship [has a special place. It is the | means by which you try to make your sleeping dreams come true. From |
| Tx:18.20 | ever practical in His wisdom, accepts your dreams and uses them as | means for waking. You would have used them to remain asleep. We once |
| Tx:18.21 | Your special relationship will be a | means for undoing guilt in everyone blessed through your holy |
| Tx:18.21 | you to whom He gave the gift. He uses everyone who calls on Him as | means for the salvation of everyone. And He will waken everyone |
| Tx:18.23 | Yet Heaven is sure. This is no dream. Its coming | means that you have chosen truth, and it has come because you have |
| Tx:18.26 | fear increases, for there is little doubt that what you think it | means is fearful. Yet what is that to us who travel surely and very |
| Tx:18.41 | your holy relationship, the Holy Spirit's teaching, and all the | means by which salvation is accomplished would have no purpose. For |
| Tx:18.43 | because God wills it. Nor will He change His Mind about it. The | means and purpose both belong to Him. You have accepted one; the |
| Tx:18.43 | one; the other will be provided. A purpose such as this without the | means is inconceivable. He will provide the means to anyone who |
| Tx:18.43 | such as this without the means is inconceivable. He will provide the | means to anyone who shares His purpose. |
| Tx:18.44 | “Thy will be done,” and not, “I want it otherwise.” The alignment of | means and purpose is an undertaking impossible for you to understand. |
| Tx:18.44 | Holy Spirit's purpose as your own, and you would merely bring unholy | means to its accomplishment. The little faith it needed to change the |
| Tx:18.44 | needed to change the purpose is all that is required to receive the | means and use them. |
| Tx:18.53 | Would you not have the instruments of separation reinterpreted as | means for salvation and used for purposes of love? Would you not |
| Tx:18.63 | protection or enjoyment in some way? This makes it an end and not a | means in your interpretation, and this always means you still find |
| Tx:18.63 | it an end and not a means in your interpretation, and this always | means you still find sin attractive. No one accepts Atonement for |
| Tx:18.66 | attempts will ultimately succeed because of their purpose. Yet the | means are tedious and very time consuming, for all of them look to |
| Tx:18.67 | Your way will be different, not in purpose but in | means. A holy relationship is a means of saving time. One instant |
| Tx:18.67 | be different, not in purpose but in means. A holy relationship is a | means of saving time. One instant spent together restores the |
| Tx:18.68 | has been saved for you because you are together. This is the special | means this course is using to save you time. You are not making use |
| Tx:18.68 | time. You are not making use of the course if you insist on using | means which have served others well, neglecting what was made for |
| Tx:18.75 | to be self-contained, needing each other for some things but by no | means totally dependent on their one Creator for everything and |
| Tx:19.6 | attain, for part of it is sought through the body, thought of as a | means for seeking out reality through attack, while the other part |
| Tx:19.37 | gently in [has already begun. This is the way in which He will bring | means and goal in line. The peace He laid deep within both of you] |
| Tx:19.56 | I am made welcome in the state of grace, which | means you have at last forgiven me. For I became the symbol of your |
| Tx:19.56 | of your sin, and so I had to die instead of you. To the ego sin | means death, and so Atonement is achieved through murder. Salvation |
| Tx:19.57 | keep us apart? Mine was no greater value than yours; no better | means for communication of salvation, but not its Source. No one can |
| Tx:19.69 | bring you neither peace nor turmoil; neither pain nor joy. It is a | means and not an end. It has no purpose of itself, but only what is |
| Tx:19.69 | only what is given to it. The body will seem to be whatever is the | means for reaching the goal that you assign to it. [Only the mind can |
| Tx:19.69 | to it. [Only the mind can set a purpose, and only mind can see the | means for its accomplishment and justify its use.] Peace and guilt |
| Tx:20.24 | other? That is the purpose of your holy relationship. Ask not the | means of its attainment of the one thing that still would have it be |
| Tx:20.24 | that still would have it be unholy. Give it no power to adjust the | means and end. |
| Tx:20.39 | your brother's value. Only the ego does this, but all it | means is that it wants the other for itself and therefore values him |
| Tx:20.41 | of a holy relationship. And while you look upon each other thus, the | means and end have not been brought in line. Why should it take so |
| Tx:20.42 | is everything. Here is the loveliness of your relationship, with | means and end in perfect harmony already. Here is the perfect faith |
| Tx:20.58 | We have said much about discrepancies of | means and end and how these must be brought in line before your holy |
| Tx:20.58 | holy relationship can bring you only joy. But we have also said the | means to meet the Holy Spirit's goal will come from the same Source |
| Tx:20.58 | more difficult than others are merely indications of areas where | means and end are still discrepant. And this produces great |
| Tx:20.59 | To the extent you still experience it, you are refusing to leave the | means to Him Who changed the purpose. You recognize you want the |
| Tx:20.59 | recognize you want the goal. Are you not also willing to accept the | means? If you are not, let us admit that you are inconsistent. A |
| Tx:20.59 | let us admit that you are inconsistent. A purpose is attained by | means, and if you want a purpose, you must be willing to want the |
| Tx:20.59 | by means, and if you want a purpose, you must be willing to want the | means as well. How can one be sincere and say, “I want this above all |
| Tx:20.59 | say, “I want this above all else, and yet I do not want to learn the | means to get it”? |
| Tx:20.60 | the Holy Spirit indeed asked little. He asks no more to give the | means as well. The means are second to the goal. And when you |
| Tx:20.60 | indeed asked little. He asks no more to give the means as well. The | means are second to the goal. And when you hesitate, it is because |
| Tx:20.60 | you hesitate, it is because the purpose frightens you, and not the | means. Remember this, for otherwise you will make the error of |
| Tx:20.60 | this, for otherwise you will make the error of believing the | means are difficult. Yet how can they be difficult if they are merely |
| Tx:20.60 | the purpose has been shaken. For if a goal is possible to reach, the | means to do so must be possible as well. |
| Tx:20.62 | The body is the | means by which the ego tries to make the unholy relationship seem |
| Tx:20.62 | with the purpose of unholiness. Because of this consistency, the | means remain unquestioned while the end is cherished. Vision adapts |
| Tx:20.64 | The difference lies not in them, but in their purpose. Both are but | means, each one appropriate to the end for which it is employed. |
| Tx:20.64 | nor is it valued as a separate thing apart from the intention. The | means seem real because the goal is valued. And judgment has no value |
| Tx:20.65 | To see the body is the sign that you lack vision and have denied the | means the Holy Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How can a holy |
| Tx:20.65 | purpose. How can a holy relationship achieve its purpose through the | means of sin? Judgment you taught yourself; vision is learned from |
| Tx:20.65 | your purpose, and while this purpose seems to have any meaning, the | means for its attainment will be evaluated as worth the seeing, and |
| Tx:20.66 | is your escape from fear. Salvation is the Holy Spirit's goal. The | means is vision. For what the seeing look upon is sinless. No one who |
| Tx:20.68 | be its effects. And as its holy purpose was not made by you, the | means by which its happy end is yours is also not of you. Rejoice in |
| Tx:20.68 | is yours but for the asking and think not that you need make either | means or end. All this is given you who would but see your brother |
| Tx:20.72 | will be deprived of meaning, and its most holy purpose bereft of | means for its accomplishment. |
| Tx:20.73 | Judgment is but a toy, a whim, the senseless | means to play the idle game of death in your imagination. But vision |
| Tx:20.75 | goal. Hallucinations serve to meet the goal of madness. They are the | means by which the outside world, projected from within, adjusts to |
| Tx:20.76 | or better, if you saw at all or merely judged against. Vision is the | means by which the Holy Spirit translates your nightmares into happy |
| Tx:21.1 | upon with vision is healed and holy. Nothing perceived without it | means anything. And where there is no meaning, there is chaos. |
| Tx:21.5 | forget. It is not this you would deny. Your question is whether the | means by which this course is learned will bring to you the joy it |
| Tx:21.32 | Faith and belief and vision are the | means by which the goal of holiness is reached. Through them the Holy |
| Tx:21.33 | about himself. For faith, perception, and belief you made as | means for losing certainty and finding sin. This mad direction was |
| Tx:21.34 | The Holy Spirit has a use for all the | means for sin by which you sought to find it. But as He uses them, |
| Tx:21.34 | sin because His purpose lies in the opposite direction. He sees the | means you use but not the purpose for which you made them. He would |
| Tx:21.34 | them. He would not take them from you, for He sees their value as a | means for what He wills for you. You made perception that you might |
| Tx:21.34 | and seek for sin with them. The Holy Spirit sees perception as a | means to teach you that the vision of a holy relationship is all you |
| Tx:21.35 | Faith and belief become attached to vision, as all the | means that once served sin are redirected now toward holiness. For |
| Tx:21.35 | to forgive him, you would condemn him to the body because the | means for sin are dear to you. And so the body has your faith and |
| Tx:21.36 | brothers from the body can have no fear. They have renounced the | means for sin by choosing to let all limitations be removed. Desiring |
| Tx:21.38 | is in the mind, which tries to use the body to carry out the | means for sin in which the mind believes. Thus is the joining of mind |
| Tx:21.38 | belief of those who value sin. And so is sacrifice invariably a | means for limitation and thus for hate. |
| Tx:21.40 | in it to serve the Holy Spirit's goal and give it power to serve as | means to help the blind to see. But in their seeing, they look past |
| Tx:21.55 | insane can disregard them, and you have gone past this. Reason is a | means which serves the Holy Spirit's purpose in its own right. It is |
| Tx:21.55 | of sin as are the others. For reason is beyond the ego's range of | means. |
| Tx:21.57 | Reason is alien to insanity, and those who use it have gained a | means which cannot be applied to sin. Knowledge is far beyond |
| Tx:21.58 | beyond itself, as does the purpose which it serves and all the | means for its accomplishment. |
| Tx:21.63 | are insane. But madness has a purpose and believes it also has the | means to make its purpose real. To see the body as a barrier between |
| Tx:21.65 | this is so. For reason, kind as is the purpose for which it is the | means, leads steadily away from madness toward the goal of truth. And |
| Tx:21.66 | your reason into line with His. Be willing to let reason be the | means by which He would direct you how to leave insanity behind. Hide |
| Tx:21.80 | to see a world without an enemy in which you are not helpless, the | means to see it will be given you. |
| Tx:22.20 | for you to see no guilt in anyone. And if this vision is the only | means by which escape from guilt can be attained, then the belief in |
| Tx:22.20 | purpose, and by One to Whom nothing He wills can be impossible, the | means for its attainment are more than possible. They must be there, |
| Tx:22.21 | of you and the ego must be made complete. For if you have the | means to let the Holy Spirit's purpose be accomplished, they can be |
| Tx:22.34 | maker's goal but not to see? For this the body's eyes are perfect | means, but not for seeing. See how the body's eyes rest on externals |
| Tx:22.34 | Nothing so blinding as perception of form. For sight of form | means understanding has been obscured. |
| Tx:22.47 | See how the | means and the material of evil dreams are nothing. In truth you stand |
| Tx:22.51 | have. Which do you value? Which is your goal? For one you see as | means; the other, end. And one must serve the other and lead to its |
| Tx:22.51 | its predominance, increasing its importance by diminishing its own. | Means serve the end, and as the end is reached, the value of the |
| Tx:22.51 | Means serve the end, and as the end is reached, the value of the | means decreases, eclipsed entirely when they are recognized as |
| Tx:22.51 | of mind or body, and he will make the other serve his choice as | means to find it. |
| Tx:22.52 | Where freedom of the body has been chosen, the mind is used as | means whose value lies in its ability to contrive ways to achieve the |
| Tx:22.53 | Be not disturbed at all to think how He can change the role of | means and end so easily in what God loves and would have free |
| Tx:22.53 | have free forever. But be you rather grateful that you can be the | means to serve His end. This is the only service which leads to |
| Tx:22.53 | The lack of contradiction makes the soft transition from | means to end as easy as is the shift from hate to gratitude before |
| Tx:22.54 | the sun which lights the sky you see, is chosen of your Father as a | means for His own plan. Be thankful that it serves yours not at all. |
| Tx:22.55 | fill again with the Eternal Light you bring shines now on you. The | means of sinlessness can know no fear because they carry only love |
| Tx:22.56 | you give the Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are now His | means must love all that He loves. And what you bring is your |
| Tx:22.56 | can disturb the peace of a relationship which has become the | means of peace. |
| Tx:22.62 | But you will not remember this while you believe attack of any kind | means anything. It is unjustified in any form because it has no |
| Tx:23.7 | a mind at war against itself remembers not eternal gentleness. The | means of war are not the means of peace, and what the warlike would |
| Tx:23.7 | remembers not eternal gentleness. The means of war are not the | means of peace, and what the warlike would remember is not love. War |
| Tx:23.8 | conflict's purpose. And to those who think that it is possible, the | means seem real. |
| Tx:23.31 | There is no point in asking what they mean. That is apparent. The | means of madness must be insane. Are you as certain that you realize |
| Tx:23.32 | benediction, is the goal the laws of chaos serve. These are the | means by which the laws of God appear to be reversed. Here do the |
| Tx:23.46 | for the escape from conflict. To be released from conflict | means that it is over. The door is open; you have left the |
| Tx:23.49 | What is the same can have no different function. Creation is the | means for God's extension, and what is His must be His Son's as well. |
| Tx:24.6 | sinless by comparison with it. And thus does specialness become a | means and end at once. For specialness not only sets apart but serves |
| Tx:24.35 | must shift accordingly. Of itself the body can do nothing. See it as | means to hurt, and it is hurt. See it as means to heal, and it is |
| Tx:24.35 | can do nothing. See it as means to hurt, and it is hurt. See it as | means to heal, and it is healed. |
| Tx:24.38 | Long ago we said consider not the | means by which salvation is attained nor how to reach it. But do |
| Tx:24.60 | of Heaven and the might of truth itself is given to provide the | means and guarantee the goal's accomplishment. |
| Tx:24.61 | lack of conflict comes your peace. And from His purpose comes the | means for effortless accomplishment and rest. |
| Tx:24.66 | is true, its safety rests secure. If not, it has no purpose and is | means for nothing. Whatever is perceived as means for truth shares in |
| Tx:24.66 | it has no purpose and is means for nothing. Whatever is perceived as | means for truth shares in its holiness and rests in light as safely |
| Tx:24.67 | to it according to the purpose which you serve. Here you are but | means, along with it. God is a Means as well as End. In Heaven, means |
| Tx:24.67 | which you serve. Here you are but means, along with it. God is a | Means as well as End. In Heaven, means and end are one, and one with |
| Tx:24.67 | but means, along with it. God is a Means as well as End. In Heaven, | means and end are one, and one with Him. This is the state of true |
| Tx:24.67 | this describable. Nor is there any way to learn what this condition | means. Not till you go past learning to the Given; not till you make |
| Tx:24.68 | time nor held to limits or uncertainties of any kind. Here do the | means and end unite as one, nor does this one have any end at all. |
| Tx:24.69 | that what is yours will come to you when you are ready. Here are the | means and purpose separate because they were so made and so |
| Tx:24.69 | its purpose has been understood. Perception does not seem to be a | means. And it is this that makes it hard to grasp the whole extent to |
| Tx:24.70 | it move. Here is an image that you want to be yourself. It is the | means to make your wish come true. It gives the eyes with which you |
| Tx:24.71 | son, in whom I am well pleased.” Thus does the “son” become the | means to serve his “father's” purpose. Not identical, not even like, |
| Tx:24.71 | his “father's” purpose. Not identical, not even like, but still a | means to offer to the “father” what he wants. Such is the travesty on |
| Tx:25.4 | in the doing of it will you learn the body merely seems to be the | means to do it. For the mind is His. And so it must be yours. His |
| Tx:25.6 | not. Perception is a part of what it is your purpose to behold, for | means and end are never separate. And thus you learn what seems to |
| Tx:25.7 | You are the | means for God—not separate nor with a life apart from His. His Life |
| Tx:25.15 | what is there. Take not the form for content, for the form is but a | means for content. And the frame is but a means to hold the picture |
| Tx:25.15 | for the form is but a means for content. And the frame is but a | means to hold the picture up so that it can be seen. A frame that |
| Tx:25.25 | To each it has a different purpose, and to each it is a perfect | means to serve the goal for which it is perceived. For specialness it |
| Tx:25.28 | him, then will he see each situation that he thought before was | means to justify his anger turned to an event which justifies his |
| Tx:25.31 | future? For you make it now, the instant when all time becomes a | means to reach a goal. Make then your choice. But recognize that in |
| Tx:25.32 | Yet it is the way in which the aim is seen that makes the choice of | means inevitable and beyond the hope of change unless the aim is |
| Tx:25.32 | beyond the hope of change unless the aim is changed. And then the | means are chosen once again, as what will bring rejoicing is defined |
| Tx:25.33 | makes it what it is in its effects on you. Because you chose it as a | means to gain these same effects, believing them to be the bringers |
| Tx:25.41 | will you gain your own. To let his function be fulfilled is but the | means to let yours be. And so you walk toward Heaven or toward hell, |
| Tx:25.47 | one. Forgiveness is the only function meaningful in time. It is the | means the Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness from sin into |
| Tx:25.48 | in form to let it serve his brother and himself and thus become a | means to save instead of lose. Salvation is no more than a reminder |
| Tx:25.48 | takes his part in its undoing, as he did in making it. He has the | means for either, as he always did. The specialness he chose to hurt |
| Tx:25.48 | The specialness he chose to hurt himself did God appoint to be the | means for his salvation from the very instant that the choice was |
| Tx:25.65 | Yet how could justice be defined without insanity where love | means hate and death is seen as victory and triumph over eternity and |
| Tx:25.78 | you see all that the answer must entail. For if you answer “yes,” it | means you will forgo all values of this world in favor of the peace |
| Tx:25.82 | recur because it has not yet been solved. The principle that justice | means no one can lose is crucial to this course. For miracles depend |
| Tx:25.84 | and peace. To give a problem to the Holy Spirit to solve for you | means that you want it solved. To keep it for yourself to solve |
| Tx:26.14 | you find him guilty and would have him die. God offers you the | means to see his innocence. Would it be fair to punish him because |
| Tx:26.25 | that he has much to be forgiven. Forgiveness thus becomes the | means by which he learns he has done nothing to forgive. Forgiveness |
| Tx:26.66 | Abide in peace, where God would have you be, and be the | means whereby your brother finds the peace in which your wishes are |
| Tx:26.86 | mean if you perceive attack in certain forms to be unfair to you? It | means that there must be some forms in which you think it fair. For |
| Tx:27.17 | Your body can be | means to teach that it has never suffered pain because of him. And in |
| Tx:27.28 | it has been shared. In His acceptance of this function lies the | means whereby your mind is unified. His single purpose unifies the |
| Tx:27.31 | The picture of your brother that you see | means nothing. There is nothing to attack or to deny, love, or hate, |
| Tx:27.33 | Yet it sets no limits you have chosen to impose. Forgiveness is the | means by which the truth is represented temporarily. It lets the Holy |
| Tx:27.54 | upon itself. Its purpose is the same as pleasure, for they both are | means to make the body real. What shares a common purpose is the |
| Tx:27.54 | unreal, because their purpose cannot be achieved. Thus are they | means for nothing, for they have a goal without a meaning. And they |
| Tx:27.65 | of the world he sees. And looked at thus, the world provides the | means by which this purpose seems to be fulfilled. |
| Tx:27.66 | The | means attest the purpose but are not themselves a cause. Nor will the |
| Tx:27.73 | his friend.] God willed he waken gently and with joy. And gave him | means to waken without fear. Accept the dream He gave instead of |
| Tx:27.82 | is a joke to think that time can come to circumvent eternity, which | means there is no time. |

| Tx:28.5 | of memory is quite apart from time. He does not seek to use it as a | means to keep the past, but rather as a way to let it go. Memory |
| Tx:28.37 | Accepting the Atonement for yourself | means not to give support to someone's dream of sickness and of |
| Tx:28.37 | not to give support to someone's dream of sickness and of death. It | means that you share not his wish to separate and let him turn |
| Tx:28.64 | but be sick. This seems to prove that you must be apart. Yet all it | means is that you tried to keep a promise to be true to |
| Tx:29.2 | must he be afraid of God. Certain it is he knows not what love | means. He fears to love and loves to hate, and so he thinks that love |
| Tx:29.6 | into fear. It will be sick because you do not know what loving | means. And so you must misuse each circumstance and everyone you meet |
| Tx:29.15 | constant change. Yet what is that except the state confusion really | means? Stability to those who are confused is meaningless, and shift |
| Tx:29.16 | or with health, and with events that seem to alter it. Yet this but | means the mind remains unchanged in its belief of what the purpose of |
| Tx:29.22 | The darkness cannot choose that it remain. The coming of the light | means it is gone. In glory will you see your brother then and |
| Tx:29.23 | which you did not create, but which you can extend. On earth this | means forgive your brother, that the darkness may be lifted from your |
| Tx:29.25 | Their equal lack of truth becomes the basis for the miracle, which | means that you have understood that dreams are dreams and that escape |
| Tx:29.30 | dream as He perceives its function, Who can utilize all dreams as | means to serve the function given Him. Because He loves the dreamer |
| Tx:29.37 | is so and seek not the eternal in this world. Forgiving dreams are | means to step aside from dreaming of a world outside yourself. And |
| Tx:29.50 | protect against the light of truth. And all the world becomes the | means by which this idol can be saved. Salvation thus appears to |
| Tx:29.59 | else. Be not deceived by forms the “something” takes. An idol is a | means for getting more. And it is this that is against God's Will. |
| Tx:30.5 | This | means that you are choosing not to be the judge of what to do. But it |
| Tx:30.10 | unwilling to sit by and ask to have the answer given you. This | means you have decided by yourself and cannot see the question. Now |
| Tx:30.44 | Thoughts seem to come and go. Yet all this | means is that you are sometimes aware of them and sometimes not. An |
| Tx:30.56 | to what he is. What could God's plan for his salvation be, except a | means to give him to Himself? |
| Tx:30.58 | The possibility of freedom has been grasped and welcomed, and the | means by which it can be gained can now be understood. The world |
| Tx:30.75 | forms of sickness and of joylessness forgiveness cannot heal. This | means that you prefer to keep some idols and are not prepared as yet |
| Tx:30.75 | some appearances are harder to look past than others are. It always | means you think forgiveness must be limited. And you have set a goal |
| Tx:30.82 | you write for every minute in the day, and all that happens now | means something else. You take away another element, and every |
| Tx:30.84 | that they have. Can this be meaning? Can confusion be what meaning | means? Perception cannot be in constant flux and make allowance for |
| Tx:30.85 | A common purpose is the only | means whereby perception can be stabilized and one interpretation |
| Tx:30.87 | of loss, there is no meaning. No one has agreed with you on what it | means. It is a part of a distorted script which cannot be interpreted |
| Tx:30.88 | Do not interpret out of solitude, for what you see | means nothing. It will shift in what it stands for, and you will |
| Tx:30.90 | The miracle is | means to demonstrate that all appearances can change because they are |
| Tx:30.93 | not while you would have it otherwise in some respects. For this but | means you would not have him healed and whole. The Christ in him is |
| Tx:31.11 | the recognition that it is a state of mind unwanted that becomes the | means whereby the choice is reassessed; another outcome seen to be |
| Tx:31.15 | forever split between the two. And every friend or enemy becomes a | means to help you save yourself from this. |
| Tx:31.34 | its roads are given. They have but one end. And each is but the | means to gain that end, for it is here that all its roads will lead, |
| Tx:31.65 | could you conceive that you must make the way to Heaven plain. The | means are given you by which to see the world that will replace the |
| Tx:31.68 | Learning is change. Salvation does not seek to use a | means as yet too alien to your thinking to be helpful nor to make the |
| W1:7.2 | It is the reason why nothing that you see | means anything. |
| W1:10.3 | status. Now we are emphasizing that the presence of these “thoughts” | means that you are not thinking. This is merely another way of |
| W1:21.3 | anger in you, and nothing that you believe in this connection | means anything. You will probably be tempted to dwell more on some |
| W1:23.4 | the world, but you can escape from its cause. This is what salvation | means, for where is the world you see when its cause is gone? Vision |
| W1:25.1 | Purpose is meaning. Today's idea explains why nothing you see | means anything. You do not know what it is for. Therefore it is |
| W1:25.1 | That is what it is for; that is its purpose; that is what it | means. It is in recognizing this that your goals become unified. It |
| W1:28.2 | mean? You see a lot of separate things about you, which really | means you are not seeing at all. You either see or not. When you have |
| W1:29.1 | by itself or in itself. And it explains why nothing you see | means anything. In fact, it explains every idea we have used thus far |
| W1:36.1 | And because you are holy, your sight must be holy as well. “Sinless” | means without sin. You cannot be without sin a little. You are |
| W1:39.4 | is being asked now, or will be asked in the future. Your holiness | means the end of guilt and therefore the end of hell. Your holiness |
| W1:42.2 | God is indeed your strength. And what He gives is truly given. This | means that you can receive it any time and anywhere, wherever you are |
| W1:43.2 | Made by the Son of God for an unholy purpose, it must become the | means for the restoration of his holiness to his awareness. |
| W1:43.2 | give it a meaning very close to God's. Healed perception becomes the | means by which the Son of God forgives his brother and thus forgives |
| W1:46.2 | this reason, forgiveness can truly be called salvation. It is the | means by which illusions disappear. |
| W1:51.2 | [1] Nothing I see | means anything. The reason this is so is that I see nothing, and |
| W1:60.2 | their innocence see nothing to forgive. Yet forgiveness is the | means by which I will recognize my innocence. It is the reflection of |
| W1:63.1 | to every mind! How blessed are you who can learn to recognize the | means for letting this be done through you! What purpose could you |
| W1:63.4 | world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. I am the | means God has appointed for the salvation of the world. |
| W1:64.4 | be happy. That is because your function is to be happy by using the | means by which happiness becomes inevitable. |
| W1:65.2 | in which you try to understand and accept what today's idea really | means. It offers you escape from all your perceived difficulties. It |
| W1:66.3 | become hopelessly involved in defining happiness and determining the | means for achieving it. We will not indulge the ego by listening to |
| W1:70.2 | The seeming “cost” of accepting today's idea is this: it | means that nothing outside yourself can save you; nothing outside |
| W1:70.2 | save you; nothing outside yourself can give you peace. But it also | means that nothing outside yourself can hurt you or disturb your |
| W1:70.13 | into the light of real salvation. Try to pass the clouds by whatever | means appeals to you. If it helps you, think of me holding your hand |
| W1:72.2 | made to imprison it. The limit on communication cannot be the best | means to expand communication. Yet the ego would have you believe |
| W1:77.5 | the world and for your own. You have requested that you be given the | means by which this is accomplished. You cannot fail to be assured in |
| W1:79.6 | problems which confront you, you would understand that you have the | means to solve them all. And you would use the means because you |
| W1:79.6 | that you have the means to solve them all. And you would use the | means because you recognize the problem. |
| W1:80.8 | Let us be determined to be free of problems that do not exist. The | means is simple honesty. Do not deceive yourself about what the |
| W1:81.7 | Let this help me learn what forgiveness | means. Let me not separate my function from my will. I would not use |
| W1:82.2 | peace to every mind through my forgiveness. My forgiveness is the | means by which the light of the world finds expression through me. My |
| W1:82.2 | of the world finds expression through me. My forgiveness is the | means by which I become aware of the light of the world in me. My |
| W1:82.2 | become aware of the light of the world in me. My forgiveness is the | means by which the world is healed, together with myself. Let me, |
| W1:83.2 | gave me. This recognition releases me from all conflict because it | means I cannot have conflicting goals. With one purpose only, I am |
| W1:85.2 | I must lay grievances aside. I want to see, and this will be the | means by which I will succeed. |
| W1:92.1 | in terms of weakness. That is because your idea of what seeing | means is tied up with the body and its eyes and brain. This is why |
| W1:93.5 | self does not exist at all. And anything it seems to do and think | means nothing. It is neither bad nor good. It is unreal and nothing |
| W1:96.2 | truth and illusion cannot be reconciled, no matter how you try, what | means you use, and where you see the problem, must be accepted if you |
| W1:96.5 | Spirit makes use of mind as | means to find its Self-expression. And the mind which serves the |
| W1:99.2 | the truth and illusion. It reflects the truth because it is the | means by which you can escape illusions. Yet it is not truth because |
| W1:99.4 | truth inviolate, yet recognize the need illusions bring and offer | means by which they are undone without attack and with no touch of |
| W1:100.3 | While you are sad, the light which God Himself appointed as the | means to save the world is dim and lusterless. And no one laughs, |
| W1:100.8 | who wants to take his place among God's messengers. Think what this | means. You have indeed been wrong in your belief that sacrifice is |
| W1:101.1 | of happiness. This is a key idea in understanding what salvation | means. You still believe it asks for suffering as penance for your |
| W1:105.3 | This strange distortion of what giving | means pervades all levels of the world you see. It strips all meaning |
| W1:105.3 | giving has become a source of fear, and so you would avoid the only | means by which you can receive. |
| W1:106.12 | receiving it to give away, so you can teach the world what giving | means by listening and learning it of Him. Do not forget today to |
| W1:110.2 | the present be accepted as it is. It is enough to let time be the | means for all the world to learn escape from time and every change |
| W1:R3.6 | you trust but what is in your mind? Have faith in these reviews, the | means the Holy Spirit uses will not fail. The wisdom of your mind |
| W1:R3.7 | and faith. It will not fail. It is the Holy Spirit's chosen | means for your salvation. Since it has His trust, His means must |
| W1:R3.7 | chosen means for your salvation. Since it has His trust, His | means must surely merit yours as well. |
| W1:122.8 | look upon a happy world of safety and of peace. Forgiveness is the | means by which it comes to take the place of hell. In quietness it |
| W1:125.2 | This world will change through you. No other | means can save it, for God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is |
| W1:126.1 | certainty of goal, and sure direction. You would understand the | means by which salvation comes to you and would not hesitate to use |
| W1:126.6 | your mind. It cannot give you peace as you perceive it. It is not a | means for your release from what you see in someone other than |
| W1:126.7 | Salvation is a better gift than this, and true forgiveness, as the | means by which it is attained, must heal the mind that gives, for |
| W1:126.9 | that will release your mind from every bar to what forgiveness | means and let you realize its worth to you. |
| W1:126.10 | today's idea, and ask for help in understanding what it really | means. Be willing to be taught. Be glad to hear the Voice of truth |
| W1:127.6 | goal. If you achieve the faintest glimmering of what love | means today, you have advanced in distance without measure and in |
| W1:127.8 | up a false belief, a dark illusion of your own reality and what love | means. He will shine through your idle thoughts today and help you |
| W1:131.2 | meaningless are not attained. There is no way to reach them, for the | means by which you strive for them are meaningless as they are. Who |
| W1:131.2 | for them are meaningless as they are. Who can use such senseless | means and hope through them to gain in anything? Where can they lead? |
| W1:132.2 | it. Now the source of thought has shifted, for to change your mind | means you have changed the source of all ideas you think or ever |
| W1:134.2 | This twisted view of what forgiveness | means is easily corrected when you can accept the fact that pardon is |
| W1:135.13 | it must plan, although it cannot know the outcome which is best, the | means by which it is achieved, nor how to recognize the problem that |
| W1:135.14 | up to save itself must make the body sick. It is not free to be a | means of helping in a plan which far exceeds its own protection and |
| W1:135.15 | with the purpose all of them were made to realize. They are the | means by which a frightened mind would undertake its own protection |
| W1:137.9 | the world of sorrow for a world where sadness cannot enter, are the | means by which the Holy Spirit urges you to follow Him. His gentle |
| W1:138.7 | purpose, now transformed from the intent you gave it, that it be a | means for demonstrating hell is real, hope changes to despair, and |
| W1:154.14 | I am among the ministers of God, and I am grateful that I have the | means by which to recognize that I am free. |
| W1:159.10 | dream with Him. His dream awakens us to truth. His vision gives the | means for a return to our unlost and everlasting sanctity in God. |
| W1:168.2 | for in it lies remembrance of His Love. Would He not gladly give the | means by which His Will is recognized? His grace is yours by your |
| W1:168.2 | acknowledgment. And memory of Him awakens in the mind which asks the | means of Him whereby its sleep is done. |
| W1:168.4 | God loves His Son. Request Him now to give the | means by which this world will disappear, and vision first will come |
| W1:168.5 | is unknown is yet the One Who answers our mistakes by giving us the | means to lay them down and rise to Him in gratitude and love. |
| W1:169.7 | you will offer was concealed from Him Who teaches what forgiveness | means. All learning was already in His Mind, accomplished and |
| W1:170.5 | If you consider carefully the | means by which your fancied self-defense proceeds on its imagined |
| W1:R5.15 | We place faith in the experience that comes from practice, not the | means we use. We wait for the experience and recognize that it is |
| W1:184.2 | This space you see as setting off all things from one another is the | means by which the world's perception is achieved. You see something |
| W1:184.5 | names and thousands more. Yet you believe this is what learning | means—its one essential goal by which communication is achieved and |
| W1:184.9 | it is this thought that will release you from them. They become but | means by which you can communicate in ways the world can understand, |
| W1:185.4 | them the peace of God? Illusions come to take His place. And what He | means is lost to sleeping minds intent on compromise, each to his |
| W1:185.5 | mean you want the peace of God is to renounce all dreams. For no one | means these words who wants illusions and who therefore seeks the |
| W1:185.5 | means these words who wants illusions and who therefore seeks the | means which bring illusions. He has looked on them and found them |
| W1:185.6 | The mind which | means that all it wants is peace must join with other minds, for that |
| W1:185.6 | how peace is obtained. And when the wish for peace is genuine, the | means for finding it are given in a form each mind which seeks for it |
| W1:186.2 | fight our function. We did not establish it. It is not our idea. The | means are given us by which it will be perfectly accomplished. All |
| W1:187.6 | Never forget you give but to yourself. Who understands what giving | means must laugh at the idea of sacrifice. Nor can he fail to |
| W1:188.5 | be contained. Who recognizes it within himself must give it. And the | means for giving it are in his understanding. He forgives because he |
| W1:192.2 | your function here. It is not God's creation, for it is the | means by which untruth can be undone. And who would pardon Heaven? |
| W1:192.2 | be undone. And who would pardon Heaven? Yet on earth you need the | means to let illusion go. Creation merely waits for your return to be |
| W1:192.4 | the senseless symbols written there before. Forgiveness is the | means by which the fear of death is overcome because it holds no |
| W1:193.1 | limitless in Him. This is His Will. And thus His Will provides the | means to guarantee that it is done. |
| W1:193.2 | ceases. God does not perceive at all. Yet it is He Who gives the | means by which perception is made true and beautiful enough to let |
| W1:195.2 | insane to fail in gratitude to One Who offers you the certain | means whereby all pain is healed and suffering replaced with laughter |
| W1:200.4 | you belong. You are a stranger here. But it is given you to find the | means whereby the world no longer seems to be a prison house for you |
| W2:WF.3 | interfering with its chosen path. Distortion is its purpose and the | means by which it would accomplish it as well. It sets about its |
| W2:247.1 | Behold it anywhere, and I will suffer. For forgiveness is the only | means whereby Christ's vision comes to me. Let me accept what His |
| W2:WIS.1 | Sin is insanity. It is the | means by which the mind is driven mad and seeks to let illusions take |
| W2:256.1 | this we choose to dream today. God is our goal; forgiveness is the | means by which our minds return to Him at last. |
| W2:257.2 | Father, forgiveness is Your chosen | means for our salvation. Let us not forget that we can have no will |
| W2:WIB.4 | The body is the | means by which God's Son returns to sanity. Though it was made to |
| W2:269.1 | I ask Your blessing on my sight today. It is the | means which You have chosen to become the way to show me my mistakes |
| W2:WIC.2 | the body's eyes perceive. For though in Him His Father placed the | means for your salvation, yet does He remain the Self Who, like His |
| W2:WIHS.2 | Spirit guides it to the outcome He perceives for it, becomes the | means to go beyond itself, to be replaced by the Eternal Truth. |
| W2:WIHS.3 | fearful images and dreams you made. The Holy Spirit understands the | means you made, by which you would attain what is forever |
| W2:WIHS.3 | unattainable. And if you offer them to Him, He will employ the | means you made for exile to restore your mind to where it truly is at |
| W2:302.2 | us the way. He fails in nothing. He the end we seek, and He the | means by which we come to Him. |
| W2:314.1 | claim the future now, for life is now its goal, and all the needed | means are happily provided. Who can grieve or suffer when the present |
| W2:316.2 | recognize them. Yet I trust that You Who gave them will provide the | means by which I can behold them, see their worth, and cherish only |
| W2:318.1 | aside or one of more or less importance than the rest? I am the | means by which God's Son is saved because salvation's purpose is to |
| W2:318.1 | for. I am God's Son, His one Eternal Love. I am salvation's | means and end as well. |
| W2:327.2 | them and to judge them not. Your word is one with You. You give the | means whereby conviction comes, and surety of Your abiding Love is |
| W2:332.1 | through the dream of darkness, offering it hope and giving it the | means to realize the freedom that is its inheritance. |
| W2:332.2 | today. Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has given us the | means to set it free. Father, we would release it now. For as we |
| W2:336.1 | Forgiveness is the | means appointed for perception's ending. Knowledge is restored after |
| W2:342.1 | me from the hell I made. It is not real. And You have given me the | means to prove its unreality to me. The key is in my hand, and I have |
| W2:344.1 | Your law, my Father, not my own. I have not understood what giving | means and thought to save what I desired for myself alone. And as I |

| Tx:24.68 | no meaning to anyone who still retains one unlearned lesson in his | memory, one thought with purpose still uncertain, or one wish with a |

| Tx:28.2 | of the past as if it were occurring now and still were there to see. | Memory, like perception, is a skill made up by you to take the place |
| Tx:28.3 | needs which mean that something must be done. It is an unselective | memory, which is not used to interfere with truth. All things the |

| Tx:28.4 | make use of memory, for God Himself is there. Yet this is not a | memory of past events, but only of a present state. You are so long |
| Tx:28.4 | only of a present state. You are so long accustomed to believe that | memory holds only what is past that it is hard for you to realize it |
| Tx:28.4 | vast as those you let the world impose on you. There is no link of | memory to the past. If you would have it there, then there it is. But |
| Tx:28.5 | The Holy Spirit's use of | memory is quite apart from time. He does not seek to use it as a |
| Tx:28.5 | it as a means to keep the past, but rather as a way to let it go. | Memory holds the message it receives and does what it is given it to |
| Tx:28.6 | made in the present if its cause is past. Only the past is held in | memory as you make use of it, and so it is a way to hold the past |
| Tx:28.7 | consequences of a cause so ancient that it far exceeds the span of | memory which your perception sees. |

| Tx:28.13 | the memory of God arises in the mind that has no fear to keep the | memory away. Its own remembering has gone. There is no past to keep |
| Tx:28.15 | been lost, to see the causeless not? And where is sacrifice, when | memory of God has come to take the place of loss? What better way to |
| Tx:28.15 | close the little gap between illusions and reality than to allow the | memory of God to flow across it, making it a bridge an instant will |
| Tx:28.15 | suffice to reach beyond? For God has closed it with Himself. His | memory has not gone by and left a stranded Son forever on a shore |
| Tx:28.19 | wish for dreams of healing or for dreams of death? A dream is like a | memory in that it pictures what you wanted shown to you. An empty |
| Tx:29.31 | a place in you where this whole world has been forgotten, where no | memory of sin and of illusion lingers still. There is a place in you |

| W1:182.1 | to you. And somewhere in your mind you know that this is true. A | memory of home keeps haunting you, as if there were a place that |
| W1:182.4 | again. The childhood of your body and its place of shelter are a | memory now so distorted that you merely hold a picture of a past that |
| W1:185.1 | or time. Heaven would be completely given back to full awareness, | memory of God entirely restored, the resurrection of all creation |
| W1:188.4 | the world of what it has forgotten, and the world restores the | memory to you as well. From you salvation radiates with gifts beyond |

| W2:WIHS.4 | Without forgiveness will your dreams remain to terrify you. And the | memory of all your Father's Love will not return to signify the end |
| W2:287.2 | that which leads to You could I desire to walk? And what except the | memory of You could signify to me the end of dreams and futile |
| W2:WIRW.5 | Truth to be Itself. That instant is our goal, for it contains the | memory of God. And as we look upon a world forgiven, it is He Who |
| W2:291.2 | path that ends in You. Let my forgiveness be complete, and let the | memory of You return to me. |

| W2:322.1 | welcome and in readiness to give God's ancient messages to me. His | memory abides in every gift that I receive of Him. And every dream |
| W2:323.1 | of me, and one I gladly make, the only “cost” of restoration of Your | memory to me for the salvation of the world. |
| W2:335.2 | What could restore Your | memory to me except to see my brother's sinlessness? His holiness |

| W2:342.1 | the door at last, forget illusions in the blazing light of truth, as | memory of You returns to me. |
| W2:350.1 | God incorporates all things within himself as You created him. Your | memory depends on his forgiveness. What he is, is unaffected by his |
| W2:350.1 | direct result. Therefore, my Father, I would turn to You. Only Your | memory will set me free. And only my forgiveness teaches me to let |

| W2:352.1 | peace today. For I would love my own Identity and find in Him the | memory of You. |
| W2:FL.3 | we will not fail to recognize as part of God Himself. And thus His | memory is given back completely and complete. |
| W2:FL.4 | our goal is shared. For it is that remembrance which contains the | memory of God and points the way to Him and to the Heaven of His |

| Tx:9.4 | at all to errors, you are not listening to the Holy Spirit. He has | merely disregarded them, and if you attend to them, you are not |
| Tx:9.4 | errors you perceive. This cannot be correction. Yet it is more than | merely lack of correction for him. It is the giving up of correction |
| Tx:9.6 | for you to see yourself truly. It is not up to you to change him but | merely to accept him as he is. His errors do not come from the truth |
| Tx:9.10 | know how to overlook errors, or you would not make them. It would | merely be further error to think either that you do not make them or |
| Tx:9.11 | given you because you have forgotten how to do it. The Holy Spirit | merely reminds you of what is your natural ability. By reinterpreting |
| Tx:9.12 | course, makes no sense and will not work. By following it, you will | merely place yourself in an impossible situation to which the ego |
| Tx:9.15 | Miracles are | merely the sign of your willingness to follow the Holy Spirit's plan |
| Tx:9.17 | was made for you as the First was created. The Second Coming is | merely the return of sense. Can this possibly be fearful? |

| Tx:9.44 | Holy Spirit judges against the reality of the ego's thought system | merely because He knows its foundation is not true. Therefore, |
| Tx:9.57 | of it, and while you leave your part of it empty, your eternal place | merely waits for your return. God, through His Voice, reminds you of |

| Tx:9.66 | You do not remember being awake. When you hear the Holy Spirit, you | merely feel better because loving seems possible to you, but you do |
| Tx:9.69 | Yet to give up the dissociation of reality brings more than | merely lack of fear. In this decision lie joy and peace and the glory |
| Tx:9.70 | To remember is | merely to restore to your mind what is already there. You do not make |

| Tx:9.80 | Son of God has the power to deny illusions anywhere in the Kingdom | merely by denying them completely in himself. I can heal you because |
| Tx:9.80 | idolatrous and does not know of conflicting laws. I will heal you | merely because I have only one message, and it is true. Your faith in |
| Tx:9.86 | is the right use of selective perception. To overlook nothingness is | merely to judge it correctly, and because of your ability to evaluate |
| Tx:9.87 | and the mind does become unreasonable without reason. This is | merely a matter of definition. By defining the mind wrongly, you |
| Tx:9.88 | good, and there are no other laws beside His. Everything else is | merely lawless and therefore chaotic. Yet God Himself has protected |
| Tx:9.101 | Creator. This is not because you will be punished otherwise. It is | merely because your acknowledgment of your Father is the |
| Tx:10.12 | it is. The reason you must ask what God's Will is in everything is | merely because it is yours. You do not know what it is, but the Holy |
| Tx:10.21 | Your willingness need not be perfect, because His is. If you will | merely offer Him a little place, He will lighten it so much that you |
| Tx:10.22 | and of your guests, only He is real. Know, then, who abides with you | merely by recognizing what is there already and do not be satisfied |
| Tx:10.39 | it, you must be ready. Let us be very calm in doing this, for we are | merely looking honestly for truth. The “dynamics” of the ego will be |
| Tx:10.40 | We have accepted the fact already that its effects can be dispelled | merely by denying their reality. The next step is obviously to |
| Tx:10.44 | outcome of its central belief, and the way to undo its results is | merely to recognize that their source is not natural, being out of |
| Tx:10.69 | true, for the eternal are not re-created. To perceive anew is | merely to perceive again, implying that before, or in the interval, |
| Tx:10.88 | of your brothers and of your Father and of yourselves. But you are | merely deceived in them. |

| Tx:15.40 | are in communication. It therefore seeks to change nothing, but | merely to accept everything. |
| Tx:15.71 | what he thinks he wants. He is not in love with the other at all. He | merely believes he is in love with sacrifice. And for this sacrifice, |
| Tx:16.2 | what empathizing means. Yet of this you may be sure—if you will | merely sit quietly by and let the Holy Spirit relate through you, you |
| Tx:16.30 | hate. The special love relationship will not offset it but will | merely drive it underground and out of sight. It is essential to |
| Tx:16.35 | Your task is not to seek for love but | merely to seek and find all of the barriers within yourself which you |
| Tx:16.44 | love and hate together, and even those who believe that hate is sin | merely feel guilty and do not correct it. |
| Tx:16.48 | And the attempt to find the imagined “best” of both worlds has | merely led to fantasies of both and to the inability to perceive |
| Tx:16.54 | you would have made yourself helpless. God is not angry. He | merely could not let this happen. You cannot change His Mind. |
| Tx:17.14 | To forgive is | merely to remember only the loving thoughts you gave in the past and |
| Tx:17.57 | In fact in order to be simple, it must be unequivocal. The simple is | merely what is easily understood, and for this it is apparent that it |
| Tx:18.27 | that your understanding is not necessary. All that was necessary was | merely the wish to understand. That wish was the desire to be holy. |
| Tx:18.36 | You | merely ask the question. The answer is given. Seek not to answer it, |
| Tx:18.36 | ask the question. The answer is given. Seek not to answer it, but | merely receive the answer as it is given. In preparing for the holy |
| Tx:18.38 | And that is all. Add more and you will | merely take away the little that is asked. Remember you made guilt |
| Tx:18.44 | have accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose as your own, and you would | merely bring unholy means to its accomplishment. The little faith it |
| Tx:18.49 | not apart from Him. Heaven is not a place nor a condition. It is | merely an awareness of perfect Oneness and the knowledge that there |
| Tx:18.59 | have escaped from fear to peace, asking no questions of reality but | merely accepting it. You have accepted this instead of the body and |
| Tx:18.61 | not attacked, but simply properly perceived. It does not limit you | merely because you would not have it so. You are not really “lifted |
| Tx:18.62 | in peace. Not through destruction, not through a “breaking out,” but | merely by a quiet “melting in.” For peace will join you there simply |
| Tx:18.67 | to remember you need do nothing. It would be far more profitable now | merely to concentrate on this than to consider what you should do. |
| Tx:18.71 | and it was made to limit the unlimited. Think not that this is | merely allegorical, for it was made to limit you. Can you who see |
| Tx:18.74 | is even aware of all this strange and meaningless activity. They | merely continue, unaware that they are feared and hated by a tiny |
| Tx:18.94 | Source of light—nothing perceived, forgiven, nor transformed, but | merely known. |
| Tx:19.27 | status from a sin to a mistake. Now you will not repeat it; you will | merely stop and let it go unless the guilt remains. For then you will |
| Tx:19.47 | to everything. The variability which the little remnant induces | merely indicates its limited results. |
| Tx:19.99 | when he is ready. Once he has found his brother, he is ready. Yet | merely to reach the place is not enough. A journey without a purpose |
| Tx:20.18 | them, not deciding first where they would have it be. Their looking | merely asked a question, and it was what they saw that answered them. |
| Tx:20.28 | of them. Being without illusion of what you are, the Holy Spirit | merely gives everything to God, Who has already given and received |
| Tx:20.40 | in him will shine so brightly in your grateful vision that you will | merely love him and be glad. You will not think to judge him, for who |
| Tx:20.43 | other? This gift returns the laws of God to your remembrance. And | merely by remembering them, the laws that held you prisoner to pain |
| Tx:20.48 | them solely for the offerings on which its idols thrive. The rest it | merely throws away, for all that it could offer is seen as valueless. |
| Tx:20.58 | inconsistencies or parts you find more difficult than others are | merely indications of areas where means and end are still discrepant. |
| Tx:20.60 | the means are difficult. Yet how can they be difficult if they are | merely given you? They guarantee the goal, and they are perfectly in |
| Tx:20.61 | not perfectly consistent with the goal of holiness? For holiness is | merely the result of letting the effects of sin be lifted so what was |
| Tx:20.61 | body is impossible, for holiness is positive, and the body is | merely neutral. It is not sinful, but neither is it sinless. As |
| Tx:20.75 | and which you choose determines what you see. For what you see is | merely how you elect to meet your goal. Hallucinations serve to meet |
| Tx:20.76 | reflect the sight you saw within; or better, if you saw at all or | merely judged against. Vision is the means by which the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:21.17 | It is impossible the Son of God be | merely driven by events outside of him. It is impossible that the |
| Tx:21.25 | Nothing can have effects without a cause and to confuse the two is | merely to fail to understand them both. |
| Tx:21.41 | is there but witnesses to your desire that it be there to see. This | merely seems to be the source of fear. |
| Tx:22.45 | Surely not by force or anger nor by opposing them in any way. | Merely by letting reason tell you that they contradict reality. They |
| Tx:22.45 | comes from them and not reality. Reality opposes nothing. What | merely is needs no defense and offers none. Only illusions need |
| Tx:22.55 | reason, joined with love, looks quietly on all confusion, observing | merely, “This was a mistake.” And then the same Atonement you |
| Tx:23.19 | world you made. And yet they govern nothing and need not be broken; | merely looked upon and gone beyond. |
| Tx:23.21 | are untrue. When brought to truth instead of to each other, they | merely disappear. No part of nothing can be more resistant to the |
| Tx:24.36 | Nothing could make more sense to miracles. For miracles are | merely change of purpose from hurt to healing. |
| Tx:24.60 | Now you are | merely asked that you pursue another goal with far less vigilance— |
| Tx:25.4 | it is He Who does it. And in the doing of it will you learn the body | merely seems to be the means to do it. For the mind is His. And so it |
| Tx:25.7 | each body that it looks upon and brushes all its darkness into light | merely by looking past it to the light. The veil is lifted through |
| Tx:25.37 | The state of sinlessness is | merely this: the whole desire to attack is gone, and so there is no |
| Tx:26.5 | Those who would see the witnesses to truth instead of to illusion | merely ask that they might see a purpose in the world that gives it |
| Tx:26.17 | barrier that seems to hold the door securely barred and locked will | merely fall away and disappear. For it is not your Father's Will that |
| Tx:26.61 | not kept separate. The healing of effect without the cause can | merely shift effects to other forms. And this is not release. God's |
| Tx:26.76 | effects of present cause must be delayed until a future time is | merely a denial of the fact that consequence and cause must come as |
| Tx:27.12 | The simple way to let this be achieved is | merely this—to let the body have no purpose from the past, when you |
| Tx:27.16 | overlooked entirely. In their undoing lies the proof that they were | merely errors. Let yourself be healed that you may be forgiving, |
| Tx:27.34 | And what will ultimately take the place of every learning aid will | merely be. Forgiveness vanishes and symbols fade, and nothing which |
| Tx:27.35 | and beyond the world of symbols and of limitations. He would | merely be, and so He merely is. |
| Tx:27.35 | world of symbols and of limitations. He would merely be, and so He | merely is. |
| Tx:27.41 | that you do not know. It does not set conditions for response, but | merely asks what the response should be. But no one in a conflict |
| Tx:27.43 | can be answered—what the question is. Within the world the answers | merely raise another question, though they leave the first |
| Tx:27.52 | guarantee that they remain unviolated and unlimited. Your part is | merely to apply what He has taught you to yourself, and He will do |
| Tx:27.53 | far less than all there really are. Infinity cannot be understood by | merely counting up its separate parts. God thanks you for your |
| Tx:27.58 | no distinctions in the names by which sin's witnesses are called. It | merely proves that what they represent has no effects. And this it |
| Tx:27.81 | no dream appear to be the cause of what it is you do? Then let us | merely look upon the dream's beginning, for the part you see is but |
| Tx:28.1 | out the interference to what has been done. It does not add, but | merely takes away. And what it takes away is long since gone, but |
| Tx:28.19 | The miracle does not awaken you but | merely shows you who the dreamer is. It teaches you there is a choice |
| Tx:28.40 | because his dreams would separate from you. Therefore, release him, | merely by your claim on brotherhood and not on dreams of fear. Let |
| Tx:28.62 | between the two. A split allegiance is but faithlessness to both and | merely sets you spinning round, to grasp uncertainly at any straw |
| Tx:28.62 | truth. And yet, because it does, it can be seen as not your home but | merely as an aid to help you reach the home where God abides. |
| Tx:29.28 | ascribe to you are met. It does not matter if they be fulfilled or | merely wanted. It is the idea that they exist from which the fears |
| Tx:29.56 | restore the truth, the light the veil between has not put out. It | merely lifts the veil and lets the truth shine unencumbered, being |
| Tx:30.22 | of wisdom will suffice to take you further. You are not coerced but | merely hope to get a thing you want. And you can say in perfect |
| Tx:30.36 | What cause have you for anger in a world which | merely waits your blessing to be free? If you be prisoner, then God |
| Tx:30.52 | obeyed your rules. They must be neither cherished nor attacked but | merely looked upon as children's toys without a single meaning of |
| Tx:30.71 | responses which are inappropriate to what is real. Instead, it | merely asks that you respond appropriately to what is not real by not |
| Tx:30.71 | your rights when you return forgiveness for attack. But you are | merely asked to see forgiveness as the natural reaction to distress |
| Tx:31.2 | things salvation asks you learn. It teaches but the very obvious. It | merely goes from one apparent lesson to the next in easy steps which |
| Tx:31.52 | and attacks it so? Let us forget the concept's foolishness and | merely think of this—there are two parts to what you think yourself |
| Tx:31.53 | doubt. The Holy Spirit does not seek to throw you into panic. So He | merely asks if just a little question might be raised. |
| Tx:31.64 | not ask that you behold the Spirit and perceive the body not. It | merely asks that this should be your choice. For you can see the body |
| Tx:31.74 | At most, you glimpse a shadow of what lies beyond. At least, you | merely look on darkness and perceive the terrified imaginings that |
| Tx:31.80 | It cannot judge because it does not know. And recognizing this, it | merely asks, “What is the meaning of what I behold?” Then is the |
| Tx:31.88 | before His holy sight. The saviors of the world who see like Him are | merely those who chose His strength instead of their own weakness, |
| W1:I.5 | and others will seem quite startling. It does not matter. You are | merely asked to apply them to what you see. You are not asked to |
| W1:1.5 | are applied. That is the purpose of the exercise. The statement is | merely applied to anything you see. As you practice applying the idea |
| W1:2.1 | to include everything in an area or you will introduce strain. | Merely glance easily and fairly quickly around you, trying to avoid |
| W1:2.2 | or an apple. The sole criterion for applying the idea to anything is | merely that your eyes have lighted on it. Make no attempt to include |
| W1:3.1 | meaning for you. Try to lay such feelings aside, and | merely use these things exactly as you would anything else. |
| W1:7.9 | Do you see a cup, or are you | merely reviewing your past experiences of picking up a cup, being |
| W1:8.3 | your mind, the truth is blocked. Recognizing that your mind has been | merely blank, rather than believing that it is filled with real |
| W1:8.4 | investment as possible, search your mind for the usual minute or so, | merely noting the thoughts you find there. Name each one by the |
| W1:10.3 | of these “thoughts” means that you are not thinking. This is | merely another way of repeating our earlier statement that your mind |
| W1:11.2 | —anywhere. During the minute or so to be spent in using the idea, | merely repeat it to yourself, being sure to do so without haste and |
| W1:15.3 | are opening your eyes at last. They will not persist, because they | merely symbolize true perception, and they are not related to |
| W1:16.1 | fact. Thoughts are not big or little, powerful or weak. They are | merely true or false. Those which are true create their own likeness. |
| W1:21.3 | grounds that they are more “obvious.” This is not so. It is | merely an example of the belief that some forms of attack are more |
| W1:23.2 | trying to change the world. It is incapable of change because it is | merely an effect. But there is indeed a point in changing your |
| W1:31.3 | As you survey your inner world, | merely let whatever thoughts cross your mind come into your |
| W1:33.2 | and inner perceptions, but without an abrupt sense of shifting. | Merely glance casually around the world you perceive as outside |
| W1:35.5 | does not matter. Illusions have no direction in reality. They are | merely not true. |
| W1:35.10 | Do not strain to think up specific things to fill the interval, but | merely relax and repeat today's idea slowly until something occurs to |
| W1:35.11 | them in the form stated above. If nothing particular occurs to you, | merely repeat the idea to yourself with closed eyes. |
| W1:37.3 | with you, not by preaching to it, not by telling it anything, but | merely by your quiet recognition that in your holiness are all things |
| W1:39.10 | the applications with several short periods during which you | merely repeat today's idea to yourself slowly a few times. You may |
| W1:40.7 | If only a brief period is available, | merely telling yourself that you are blessed as a Son of God will do. |
| W1:42.7 | Let them come without censoring unless you realize your mind is | merely wandering and you have let obviously irrelevant thoughts |
| W1:42.8 | for relevant thoughts is not appropriate for today's exercises. Try | merely to step back and let the thoughts come. If you find this |
| W1:43.17 | If no particular subject presents itself to your awareness, | merely repeat the idea in its original form. |
| W1:44.4 | A longer time is highly recommended, but only if you find the time | merely slipping by with little or no sense of strain. The form of |
| W1:44.7 | mind cannot be stopped in this unless you choose to stop it. It is | merely taking its natural course. Try to observe your passing |
| W1:48.2 | practice periods will be very short, very simple, and very frequent. | Merely repeat the idea as often as possible. You can use it with your |
| W1:R1.3 | idea literally or thoroughly in the practice periods. Rather, try | merely to emphasize the central point and think about it as part of |
| W1:51.3 | And it is this and only this that I see. This is not vision. It is | merely an illusion of reality, because my judgments have been made |
| W1:51.4 | and understood and loved. I can exchange what I see now for this | merely by being willing to do so. Is not this a better choice than |
| W1:55.5 | I do not know who I am? What I think are my best interests would | merely bind me closer to the world of illusions. I am willing to |
| W1:57.2 | undone if I so choose? My chains are loosened. I can drop them off | merely by desiring to do so. The prison door is open. I can leave it |
| W1:61.1 | Who is the light of the world except God's Son? This, then, is | merely a statement of the truth about yourself. It is the opposite of |
| W1:64.1 | Today's idea is | merely another way of saying, “Let me not wander into temptation.” |
| W1:66.3 | not indulge the ego by listening to its attacks on truth. We will | merely be glad that we can find out what truth is. |
| W1:75.7 | you never saw it before. You do not know yet what it looks like. You | merely wait to have it shown to you. While you wait, repeat several |
| W1:77.1 | because you are one with God. Again, how simple is salvation! It is | merely a statement of your true Identity. It is this that we will |
| W1:77.4 | of everyone. Miracles do not obey the laws of this world. They | merely follow from the laws of God. |
| W1:R2.5 | specific forms will be included in the comments. These, however, are | merely suggestions. It is not the particular words you use that |
| W1:88.2 | [75] The light has come. In choosing salvation rather than attack, I | merely choose to recognize what is already here. Salvation is a |
| W1:95.8 | have already failed to do what is required. This should, however, | merely be recognized as what it is—a refusal to let your mistakes |
| W1:95.10 | you fail to comply with the requirements of this course, you have | merely made a mistake. This calls for correction and for nothing else. |
| W1:107.1 | for what they are? Where truth has entered, errors disappear. They | merely vanish, leaving not a trace by which to be remembered. They |
| W1:107.5 | doubts that the appearances the world presents engender. They will | merely blow away when truth corrects the errors in your mind. |
| W1:107.8 | truth correct them all. We do not ask for what we do not have. We | merely ask for what belongs to us, that we may recognize it as our |
| W1:121.10 | regret in you if you should meet him; one you actively despise or | merely try to overlook. It does not matter what the form your anger |
| W1:126.3 | there is no gain to you directly. You give charity to one unworthy | merely to point out that you are better, on a higher plane than he |
| W1:130.11 | Dismiss temptation easily today whenever it arises | merely by remembering the limits on your choice. The unreal or the |
| W1:132.9 | then you can loose it from all things you ever thought it was by | merely changing all the thoughts that gave it these appearances. The |
| W1:132.18 | Then | merely rest, alert but with no strain, and let your mind in quietness |
| W1:133.10 | doubled, for the one who is deceived will not perceive that he has | merely failed to gain. He will believe that he has served the ego's |
| W1:133.14 | What is the gain to you in learning this? It is far more than | merely letting you make choices easily and without pain. Heaven |
| W1:134.5 | Pardon is no escape in such a view. It | merely is a further sign that sin is unforgivable, at best to be |
| W1:134.7 | of sinners mad with guilt. It looks on them with quiet eyes and | merely says to them, “My brother, what you think is not the truth.” |
| W1:135.9 | real. The body, valueless and hardly worth the least defense, need | merely be perceived as quite apart from you, and it becomes a |
| W1:135.11 | it protection of a kind from which it gains no benefit at all but | merely adds to your distress of mind. You do not heal but merely take |
| W1:135.11 | at all but merely adds to your distress of mind. You do not heal but | merely take away the hope of healing, for you fail to see where hope |
| W1:136.1 | illusion by the same approach that carries all of them to truth and | merely leaves them there to disappear. |
| W1:136.13 | are your attempts to plan defenses which would alter it. Truth | merely wants to give you happiness, for such its purpose is. Perhaps |
| W1:136.16 | And truth will come, for it has never been apart from us. It | merely waits for just this invitation which we give today. We |
| W1:137.4 | sickness would impose has never really happened. To be healed is | merely to accept what always was the simple truth and always will |
| W1:138.6 | world, Heaven appears to take the form of choice rather than | merely being what it is. Of all the choices you have tried to make, |
| W1:139.3 | What is it he doubts? Whom does he question? Who can answer him? He | merely states that he is not himself and therefore, being something |
| W1:139.4 | all unless he knew the answer. If he asks as if he did not know, it | merely shows he does not want to be the thing he is. He has accepted |
| W1:139.9 | not what he is. Today accept Atonement, not to change reality, but | merely to accept the truth about yourself and go your way rejoicing |
| W1:140.2 | He is not healed. He | merely had a dream that he was sick, and in the dream he found a |
| W1:140.3 | brings are different from the dreaming of the world, where one can | merely dream he is awake. The dreams forgiveness lets the mind |
| W1:140.6 | unmindful where the need for healing is. This is no magic. It is | merely an appeal to truth which cannot fail to heal and heal forever. |
| W1:140.6 | gravity, or anything that is related to the form it takes. It | merely focuses on what it is and knows that no illusion can be real. |
| W1:R4.10 | After your preparation, | merely read each of the two ideas assigned to you to be reviewed that |
| W1:151.1 | No one can judge on partial evidence. That is not judgment. It is | merely an opinion based on ignorance and doubt. Its seeming certainty |
| W1:151.4 | because it is a right to be withheld from you. You cannot judge. You | merely can believe the ego's judgments, all of which are false. It |
| W1:151.7 | touch reports of him. He passes by such idle witnesses, which | merely bear false witness to God's Son. He recognizes only what God |
| W1:152.7 | of Him. And can you see what God created not? To think you can is | merely to believe you can perceive what God willed not to be. And |
| W1:153.1 | and its bitter jests, its brief relationships and all the “gifts” it | merely lends to take away again, attend this lesson well. The world |
| W1:158.6 | here the journey ends. Experience, unlearned, untaught, unseen, is | merely there. This is beyond our goal, for it transcends what needs |
| W1:158.8 | can compare with this in value; nor set up a goal which does not | merely disappear when this has been perceived. And this you give |
| W1:158.9 | them all. In His forgiveness, they are gone. Unseen by One, they | merely disappear because a vision of the holiness which lies beyond |
| W1:159.5 | one made holy by forgiveness. Things which seem quite solid here are | merely shadows there, transparent, faintly seen, at times forgot, and |
| W1:161.15 | in you and answer in your own. Behold him now whom you had seen as | merely flesh and bone and recognize that Christ has come to you. |
| W1:164.8 | vision, now our own. Open the curtain in your practicing by | merely letting go all things you think you want. Your trifling |
| W1:166.10 | God's Will does not oppose. It | merely is. It is not God you have imprisoned in your plan to lose |
| W1:167.9 | What seems to be the opposite of life is | merely sleeping. When the mind elects to be what it is not and to |
| W1:167.9 | it cannot enter, or a false condition not within its Source, it | merely seems to go to sleep a while. It dreams of time—an interval |
| W1:169.5 | It has united with its Source, and like its Source Itself, it | merely is. |
| W1:169.6 | time, forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. The Son of God has | merely disappeared into His Father, as his Father has in him. The |
| W1:169.8 | state, forever as it always was; forever to remain as it is now. We | merely take the part assigned long since and fully recognized as |
| W1:170.6 | attributes of fear. For love would ask you lay down all defense as | merely foolish. And your arms indeed would crumble into dust. For |
| W1:182.4 | body and its place of shelter are a memory now so distorted that you | merely hold a picture of a past that never happened. Yet there is a |
| W1:185.3 | —the outcome wanted not the same for both. Loser and gainer | merely shift about in changing patterns, as the ratio of gain to loss |
| W1:185.4 | is the goal of dreaming. Minds cannot unite in dreams. They | merely bargain. And what bargain can give them the peace of God? |
| W1:185.11 | No one who truly seeks the peace of God can fail to find it. For he | merely asks that he deceive himself no longer by denying to himself |
| W1:188.1 | Why wait for Heaven? Those who seek the light are | merely covering their eyes. The light is in them now. Enlightenment |
| W1:189.8 | to God by which He should appear to you. The way to reach Him is | merely to let Him be. For in that way is your reality acclaimed as |
| W1:190.5 | But it is you who have the power to dominate all things you see by | merely recognizing what you are. As you perceive the harmlessness in |
| W1:190.6 | —the world you see does nothing. It has no effects at all. It | merely represents your thoughts. And it will change entirely as you |
| W1:192.2 | Heaven? Yet on earth you need the means to let illusion go. Creation | merely waits for your return to be acknowledged, not to be complete. |
| W1:196.5 | nailed you to the cross. Perhaps it seemed to be salvation. Yet it | merely stood for the belief the fear of God is real. And what is that |
| W1:R6.6 | pace along a shorter path to the serenity and peace of God. We | merely close our eyes and then forget all that we thought we knew and |
| W2:I.1 | seek direct experience of truth alone. The lessons which remain are | merely introductions to the times in which we leave the world of pain |
| W2:I.2 | Now we attempt to let the exercise be | merely a beginning. For we wait in quiet expectation for our God and |
| W2:WF.1 | What is sin except a false idea about God's Son? Forgiveness | merely sees its falsity and therefore lets it go. What then is free |
| W2:WF.4 | of reality nor seeks to twist it to appearance that it likes. It | merely looks and waits and judges not. He who would not forgive must |
| W2:WS.2 | for such a thought before, for peace was given without opposite and | merely was. But when the mind is split, there is a need of healing. |
| W2:WS.3 | and malice. Thus it lets illusions go. By not supporting them, it | merely lets them quietly go down to dust. And what they hid is now |
| W2:233.1 | time in vain imaginings. Today I come to You. I will step back and | merely follow You. Be You the Guide and I the follower who questions |
| W2:234.1 | are gone and we have reached again the holy peace we never left. | Merely a tiny instant has elapsed between eternity and timelessness. |
| W2:235.1 | certainty assure myself, “God wills that I be saved from this,” and | merely watch them disappear. I need but keep in mind my Father's Will |
| W2:282.2 | and so is mine. Such is the truth. And can the truth be changed by | merely giving it another name? The name of fear is simply a mistake. |
| W2:WISC.1 | Christ's Second Coming, which is sure as God, is | merely the correction of mistakes and the return of sanity. It is a |
| W2:WILJ.2 | Without a cause and now without a function in Christ's sight, it | merely slips away to nothingness. There it was born, and there it |
| W2:312.1 | judged, you therefore see what you would look upon. For vision | merely serves to offer you what you would have. It is impossible to |
| W2:323.2 | And as we pay the debt we owe to truth—a debt which | merely is the letting go of self-deceptions and of images we |
| W2:324.1 | aright. My brothers all can follow in the way I lead them. Yet I | merely follow in the way to You as You direct me and would have me go. |
| W2:332.1 | its evil dreams by shining them away. Truth never makes attack. It | merely is. And by its presence is the mind recalled from fantasies, |
| W2:335.1 | as he is, for that is far beyond perception. What I see in him is | merely what I wish to see because it stands for what I want to be the |

| M:10.2 | or better, he has an illusion of giving up. He has actually | merely become more honest. Recognizing that judgment was always |
| M:10.4 | who has not had this experience? Would you know how many times you | merely thought you were right, without ever realizing you were wrong? |
| M:10.5 | of gratitude. Now are you free of a burden so great that you could | merely stagger and fall down beneath it. And it was all illusion. |
| M:11.4 | God has entered. What else but a thought of God turns hell to Heaven | merely by being what it is? The earth bows down before its gracious |

| M:14.2 | It will not be destroyed nor attacked nor even touched. It will | merely cease to seem to be. |
| M:14.4 | function of the teacher of God in this concluding lesson? He need | merely learn how to approach it, to be willing to go in its |

| M:16.6 | It is not so. Your safety lies not there. What you give up is | merely the illusion of protecting illusions. And it is this you fear, |
| M:16.9 | for God's. These attempts may indeed seem frightening, yet they are | merely pathetic. They can have no effects, neither good nor bad, |
| M:16.9 | destructive, quieting nor fearful. When all magic is recognized as | merely nothing, the teacher of God has reached the most advanced |
| M:16.10 | it is fearful, not that it is sinful, not that it is dangerous, but | merely that it is meaningless. Rooted in sacrifice and separation, |
| M:16.10 | sacrifice and separation, two aspects of one error and no more, he | merely chooses to give up all that he never had. And for this |
| M:17.4 | too, of the intensity of the anger that is aroused. It may be | merely slight irritation, perhaps too mild to be even clearly |

| M:21.4 | by ceasing to decide for himself what he will say. This process is | merely a special case of the workbook lesson “I will step back and |
| M:22.3 | impossible. A body that can order a mind to do as it sees fit would | merely take the place of God and prove salvation is impossible. What |
| M:23.1 | of this? The Bible says, “Ask in the name of Jesus Christ.” Is this | merely an appeal to magic? A name does not heal, nor does an |
| M:24.3 | who do not. If a definite stand on it were required of him, it would | merely limit his usefulness as well as his own decision-making. Our |

| M:24.5 | the end. Yet even this much is not required of the beginner. He need | merely accept the idea that what he knows is not necessarily all |
| M:25.1 | There are, of course, no “unnatural” powers, and it is obviously | merely an appeal to magic to make up a power that does not exist. It |

| Tx:6.17 | The | message of the crucifixion is [very simple and] perfectly clear: |
| Tx:6.20 | thinking in the New Testament, whose whole gospel is only the | message of love. These are not like the several slips into impatience |
| Tx:6.21 | Son of Man with a kiss?” unless I believed in betrayal. The whole | message of the crucifixion was simply that I did not. The |
| Tx:6.37 | He is united, He offers the whole Kingdom always. This is the one | message God gave to Him and for which He must speak, because that is |
| Tx:6.37 | speak, because that is what He is. The peace of God lies in that | message, and so the peace of God lies in you. |
| Tx:6.41 | made what you are something you must learn. We said before that the | message of the crucifixion was, “Teach only love, for that is what |
| Tx:7.16 | always that these differences do not matter. The meaning of His | message is always the same, and only the meaning matters. God's law |
| Tx:8.79 | to use your body only to reach your brothers, so He can teach His | message through you. This will heal them and therefore heal you. |
| Tx:8.95 | simply because confused communication does not mean anything. A | message cannot be said to be communicated unless it makes sense. How |
| Tx:8.111 | The | message your brother gives you is up to you. What does he say to you? |
| Tx:8.111 | What would you have him say? Your decision about him determines the | message you receive. Remember that the Holy Spirit is in him, and His |
| Tx:9.80 | of conflicting laws. I will heal you merely because I have only one | message, and it is true. Your faith in it will make you whole when |
| Tx:9.81 | I do not bring God's | message with deception, and you will learn this as you learn that you |
| Tx:9.94 | and not yourself, have done this to you. You will receive the | message you give, because it is the message you want. You may believe |
| Tx:9.94 | to you. You will receive the message you give, because it is the | message you want. You may believe that you judge your brothers by the |
| Tx:9.94 | by the messages they give you, but you have judged them by the | message you give to them. Do not attribute your denial of joy to |
| Tx:9.99 | part of the Sonship because of His love for His Son. If you hear His | message, He has answered you, and you will learn of Him if you hear |
| Tx:10.19 | opens his own ears to the Voice of the Holy Spirit, whose | message is wholeness. He will enable you to go far beyond the healing |
| Tx:11.69 | attest only to your decision about reality, returning to you the | message you gave them. Love is recognized by its messengers. If you |
| Tx:12.27 | you are forbidding yourself to let it go. You thus deny yourself the | message of release that every brother offers you now. |
| Tx:13.4 | given Him to you because He has no Thoughts He does not share. His | message speaks of timelessness in time, and that is why Christ's |
| Tx:13.53 | must begin His teaching by showing you what you can never learn. His | message is not indirect, but He must introduce the simple truth into |
| Tx:14.5 | still with God. Would you have all of it transformed into a radiant | message of God's Love, to share with all the lonely ones who denied |
| Tx:14.6 | Each one of you has a special part to play in the Atonement, but the | message given to each to share is always the same—God's Son is |
| Tx:14.6 | is always the same—God's Son is guiltless. Each one teaches the | message differently and learns it differently. Yet until he teaches |
| Tx:14.43 | needs no interpretation. It is clear. Clean but the mirror, and the | message which shines forth from what the mirror holds out for |
| Tx:14.43 | out for everyone to see no one can fail to understand. It is the | message that the Holy Spirit is holding to the mirror that is in him. |
| Tx:15.108 | more joyous than to perceive we are deprived of nothing? Such is the | message of the time of Christ, which I give you that you may give it |
| Tx:16.80 | Seek and find his | message in the holy instant, where all illusions are forgiven. From |
| Tx:18.44 | but only because they are happy. And so they must be loving. Their | message is, “Thy will be done,” and not, “I want it otherwise.” The |
| Tx:19.37 | the calm awareness of complete protection. And you will carry its | message of love and safety and freedom to everyone who draws nigh |
| Tx:19.61 | the mind to join in holy communion and be at peace. Such is the | message that I gave them for you. |
| Tx:19.66 | peace its home in Heaven. Send forth to all the world the joyous | message of the end of guilt, and all the world will answer. Think of |
| Tx:19.74 | messages are always sent away from you in the belief that for your | message of attack and guilt will someone other than yourself suffer. |
| Tx:22.42 | to rise between you. So shall you walk the world with me, whose | message has not yet been given to everyone. For you are here to let |
| Tx:22.43 | saviors, walking the world with their Redeemer and carrying His | message of hope and freedom and release from suffering to everyone |
| Tx:24.16 | and they fall on different ears. To every special one a different | message, and one with different meaning, is the truth. Yet how can |
| Tx:25.5 | despise the one who tells you this and seek his death instead? The | message and the messenger are one. And you must see your brother as |
| Tx:25.87 | in them. Its offering is universal, and it teaches but one | message: |
| Tx:27.7 | your brother and yourself in different tongues. And yet to both the | message is the same. Adornment of the body seeks to show how lovely |
| Tx:27.11 | Let it have healing as its purpose. Then will it send forth the | message it received and by its health and loveliness proclaim the |
| Tx:27.11 | an endless life, forever unattacked. And to your brother let its | message be, “Behold me, brother; at your hand I live.” |
| Tx:27.55 | again to pain. For either witness is the same and carries but one | message: “You are here within this body, and you can be hurt. You can |
| Tx:28.5 | to keep the past, but rather as a way to let it go. Memory holds the | message it receives and does what it is given it to do. It does not |
| Tx:28.5 | receives and does what it is given it to do. It does not write the | message nor appoint what it is for. Like to the body, it is |
| Tx:28.5 | and hurts which you were saving, this is what you asked its | message be, and this is what it is. Committed to its vaults, the |
| Tx:29.8 | not real. And there are overtones of seeming fear around the happy | message, “God is love.” |
| Tx:29.47 | the signs of death you seek? No sadness and no suffering proclaims a | message other than an idol found that represents a parody of life |
| W1:R2.3 | There is a | message waiting for you. Be confident that you will receive it. |
| W1:99.16 | You have a special | message for today which has the power to remove all forms of doubt |
| W1:100.7 | you look upon, His peace to everyone who looks on you and sees His | message in your happy face. We will prepare ourselves for this today |
| W1:123.5 | not heard. In thanking Him the thanks are yours as well. An unheard | message will not save the world, however mighty be the Voice that |
| W1:123.5 | however mighty be the Voice that speaks, however loving may the | message be. Thanks be to you who heard, for you become the messenger |
| W1:125.1 | around the world; until your mind, in quiet listening, accepts the | message which the world must hear to usher in the quiet time of peace. |
| W1:127.11 | to learn what you must learn. And as he comes to mind, give him this | message from your Self: |
| W1:R4.9 | for they will all be shared with Him. And so each one will bring the | message of His Love to you, returning messages of yours to Him. So |
| W1:154.5 | A messenger does not elect to make the | message he delivers. Nor does he question the right of him who does |
| W1:154.5 | of him who does nor ask why he has chosen those who will receive the | message that he brings. It is enough that he accept it, give it to |
| W1:154.7 | that are not given them by His authority. And so they gain by every | message which they give away. |
| W1:154.15 | up our minds and realize these holy words are true. They are the | message sent to us today from our Creator. Now we demonstrate how |
| W1:193.15 | the way to look upon them so that they will disappear. Truth is His | message; truth His teaching is. His are the lessons God would have us |
| W2:245.2 | And so we go in peace. To all the world we give the | message that we have received. And thus we come to hear the Voice of |

| Tx:9.94 | you want. You may believe that you judge your brothers by the | messages they give you, but you have judged them by the message you |
| Tx:12.27 | prevent you from perceiving them as they are. And you will receive | messages from them out of your own past because, by making it real in |
| Tx:18.86 | seen only through the body's eyes. Its vision is distorted, and the | messages it transmits to you who made it to limit your awareness are |
| Tx:18.86 | are meaningless. From the world of bodies, made by insanity, insane | messages seem to be returned to the mind which made it. And these |
| Tx:18.86 | messages seem to be returned to the mind which made it. And these | messages bear witness to this world, pronouncing it as true. For you |
| Tx:18.87 | Everything these | messages relay to you is quite external. There are no messages which |
| Tx:18.87 | these messages relay to you is quite external. There are no | messages which speak of what lies underneath, for it is not the body |
| Tx:18.87 | its senses remain quite unaware of it; its tongue cannot relay its | messages. Yet God can bring you there if you are willing to follow |
| Tx:19.12 | sent forth to gather witnesses unto its coming and to return their | messages to you. Faith is as easily exchanged for knowledge as is the |
| Tx:19.49 | has messengers which they send forth and which return to them with | messages written in the language in which their going forth was asked. |
| Tx:19.50 | Love's messengers are gently sent and return with | messages of love and gentleness. The messengers of fear are harshly |
| Tx:19.50 | lord and master. Perception cannot obey two masters, each asking for | messages of different things in different languages. What fear would |
| Tx:19.53 | you. Be not afraid of them. They offer you salvation. Theirs are the | messages of safety, for they see the world as kind. |
| Tx:19.54 | send forth only the messengers the Holy Spirit gives you, wanting no | messages but theirs, you will see fear no more. The world will be |
| Tx:19.73 | want. Like any communication medium, the body receives and sends the | messages that it is given. It has no feeling for them. All of the |
| Tx:19.73 | ego hides it, for it would keep you unaware of it. Who would send | messages of hatred and attack if he but understood he sends them to |
| Tx:19.74 | The ego's | messages are always sent away from you in the belief that for your |
| Tx:19.74 | so, but as the “enemy” of peace, it urges you to send out all your | messages of hate and free yourself. And to convince you this is |
| Tx:19.76 | a communication medium, receiving from the Father and offering His | messages unto the Son. Like the ego, the Holy Spirit is both the |

| Tx:2.109 | The Last Judgment | might be called a process of right evaluation. It simply means that |

| Tx:5.12 | but it can be transferred to knowledge or cross over into it. It | might even be more helpful here to use the literal meaning of |
| Tx:5.40 | it with His strength, just as the ego welcomes it with all its | might. The Holy Spirit counters this welcome by welcoming peace. |
| Tx:5.65 | We said before that illness is a form of magic. It | might be better to say that it is a form of magical solution. The ego |
| Tx:6.8 | You are free to perceive yourselves as persecuted if you choose. You | might remember, however, when you do choose to react that way, that I |
| Tx:6.31 | yet it is your perception which the Holy Spirit guides. You | might remember that the human eye perceives parallel lines as if they |

| Tx:8.107 | This is not only true in connection with specific things which | might be harmful but also in connection with requests which are |
| Tx:8.107 | are strictly in line with this course. The latter, in particular, | might be incorrectly interpreted as “proof” that the course does not |

| Tx:10.31 | Glory is your inheritance, given your Soul by its Creator that you | might extend it. Yet if you hate part of your own Soul, all your |
| Tx:11.41 | Behold the Guide your Father gave you that you | might learn you have eternal life. For death is not your Father's |
| Tx:12.25 | claim that it proves there is life. Even the past life which death | might indicate could only have been futile if it must come to this |
| Tx:12.25 | healed if you did question it. And even though you know not Heaven, | might it not be more desirable than death? You have been as selective |
| Tx:12.26 | notion of time, and it is with this notion that your questioning | might well begin. The ego invests heavily in the past and in the end |
| Tx:12.42 | vision through your eyes, for you made your way of seeing that you | might see in darkness, and in this you are deceived. Beyond this |

| Tx:15.87 | goals are altogether unattainable, will strive for them with all its | might and will do so with the strength which you have given it. |
| Tx:16.11 | way of avoiding or looking away from the whole to what you think you | might be better able to understand. For this is but another way in |
| Tx:17.70 | with you. And you can use this in perfect safety. Yet for all its | might, so great it reaches past the stars and to the universe that |
| Tx:17.74 | suspension of faithlessness, withheld and left unused, that faith | might answer to the call of truth. The holy instant is the shining |
| Tx:18.32 | the two. He asks but little. It is He who adds the greatness and the | might. He joins with you to make the holy instant far greater than |
| Tx:19.85 | proof in his decay that God Himself is powerless before the ego's | might, unable to protect the life that He created against the ego's |
| Tx:19.106 | in return for what you gave. He leadeth you and me together that we | might meet here in this holy place and make the same decision. |
| Tx:21.34 | as a means for what He wills for you. You made perception that you | might choose among your brothers and seek for sin with them. The Holy |
| Tx:24.8 | There is no difference. You have been given to each other that love | might be extended, not cut off from one another. What you keep is |
| Tx:24.22 | remembering God gave Himself to both of you in equal love that both | might share the universe with Him Who chose that love could never be |
| Tx:24.27 | made sin. Inviolate it stands, strongly defended with all your puny | might against the Will of God. And thus it stands against yourself; |
| Tx:24.32 | Open your eyes a little; see the savior God gave to you that you | might look on him and give him back his birthright. It is yours. |
| Tx:24.38 | But do consider, and consider well, whether it is your wish that you | might see your brother sinless. To specialness the answer must be |
| Tx:24.45 | thing that He beholds and loves. And seeks it still, that each | might offer you the love of God. |
| Tx:24.55 | that part of Him He set forever in your brother's holiness that you | might see the truth about yourself set forth at last in terms you |
| Tx:24.60 | asked, no strain called forth, and all the power of Heaven and the | might of truth itself is given to provide the means and guarantee the |
| Tx:24.62 | it stands in place of your creations, who are son to you, that you | might share the Fatherhood of God, not snatch it from Him. What is |
| Tx:25.13 | of change in this respect is hardly worth delaying change that | might result in better outcome? For one thing is sure—the way you |
| Tx:25.18 | because you saw it in a frame of death. God kept it safe that you | might look on it and see the holiness that He has given it. |

| Tx:25.73 | done unto the Son He loves and would protect from all unfairness you | might seek to offer, believing vengeance is his proper due. |

| Tx:26.68 | but reflects the little you would keep between yourselves that you | might be a little separate. For time and space are one illusion which |
| Tx:27.49 | will its thanks withhold from you who let yourself be healed that it | might live. It will call forth its witnesses to show the face of |
| Tx:28.47 | you exist because God shared His Will with you, that His creation | might create. |
| Tx:29.14 | For they are where He is Who brought them with Him that they | might be yours. You cannot see your Guest, but you can see the gifts |
| Tx:29.32 | you gently in its soft embrace, so strong and quiet, tranquil in the | might of its Creator; nothing can intrude upon the sacred Son of God |
| Tx:29.33 | and let It tell you what his function is. He was created that you | might be whole, for only the complete can be a part of God's |
| Tx:29.41 | fixed by God. All other goals are set in time and change that time | might be preserved, excepting one. Forgiveness does not aim at |

| W1:35.6 | A suitable unselected list for applying the idea for today | might be as follows: |

| W1:44.6 | in recognizing that its opposition and fears are meaningless. You | might find it helpful to remind yourself from time to time that to |
| W1:46.10 | considerably, but the central idea should not be lost sight of. You | might say, for example: |
| W1:70.4 | opposite, making every attempt, however distorted and fantastic it | might be, to separate healing from the sickness for which it was |
| W1:70.8 | recognition that salvation comes from nothing outside of you. You | might put it this way: |
| W1:78.11 | Holy Spirit to express through him the role God gave Him that you | might be saved. God thanks you for these quiet times today in which |
| W1:81.3 | for applying today's idea when specific difficulties seem to arise | might be: |

| W1:108.10 | think of what you would hold out to everyone to have it yours. You | might, for instance, say: |

| Tx:2.49 | not tolerate at all. The pain threshold drops accordingly, and the | mind becomes increasingly sensitive to what it would once have |

| Tx:2.57 | In this case it may be wise to utilize a compromise approach to | mind and body, in which something from the outside is temporarily |

| Tx:2.88 | why fear occurs. Very few people appreciate the real power of the | mind, and no one remains fully aware of it all the time. However, if |
| Tx:2.88 | fear, there are some things he must realize and realize fully. The | mind is a very powerful creator, and it never loses its creative |

| Tx:3.19 | One. There is no confusion within its levels because they are of One | Mind and One Will. This single purpose creates perfect integration |
| Tx:3.23 | the issue revolves around the question of whether the body or the | mind can see (or understand). This is not really open to question at |
| Tx:3.23 | at all. The body is not capable of understanding, and only the | mind can perceive anything. A pure mind knows the truth, and this is |
| Tx:3.23 | of understanding, and only the mind can perceive anything. A pure | mind knows the truth, and this is its strength. It cannot attack the |
| Tx:3.23 | because it recognizes exactly what the body is. This is what “a sane | mind in a sane body” really means. It does not confuse destruction |
| Tx:3.24 | Innocence is incapable of sacrificing anything, because the innocent | mind has everything and strives only to protect its wholeness. This |
| Tx:3.24 | is perfectly apparent. The innocence of God is the true state of | mind of His Son. In this state, man's mind does see God [and because] |
| Tx:3.24 | of God is the true state of mind of His Son. In this state, man's | mind does see God [and because] he sees Him as he is[, he knows] that |

| Tx:3.43 | Right-mindedness is not to be confused with the knowing | mind, because it is applicable only to right perception. You can be |
| Tx:3.43 | the correction for “wrong-mindedness,” and applies to the state of | mind which induces accurate perception. It is miraculous because it |
| Tx:3.44 | always involves some misuse of will, because it involves the | mind in areas of uncertainty. The mind is very active because it has |
| Tx:3.44 | of will, because it involves the mind in areas of uncertainty. The | mind is very active because it has will-power. When it willed the |
| Tx:3.44 | and the only way out of ambiguity is clear perception. The | mind returns to its proper function only when it wills to know. This |
| Tx:3.44 | perception is meaningless. The superconscious is the level of the | mind which wills this. |
| Tx:3.45 | The | mind chose to divide itself when it willed to create both its own |
| Tx:3.46 | of darkness. This is why it became almost inaccessible to the | mind and entirely inaccessible to the body. |
| Tx:3.48 | demonstrated both the powerlessness of the body and the power of the | mind. By uniting my will with that of my Creator, I naturally |
| Tx:3.49 | with God's for you, but I can erase all misperceptions from your | mind if you will bring it under my guidance. Only your misperceptions |

| Tx:4.3 | The journey to the cross should be the last foolish journey for every | mind. Do not dwell upon it, but dismiss it as accomplished. If you |
| Tx:4.6 | ego has made involves a contradiction in terms. This is because the | mind is split between the ego and the Soul, so that whatever the ego |
| Tx:4.10 | are your greatest strengths now, because you must change your | mind and help others change theirs. It is pointless to refuse to |
| Tx:4.21 | together. I need devoted teachers who share my aim of healing the | mind. The Soul is far beyond the need of your protection or mine. |
| Tx:4.25 | and does occur as readily when the interaction takes place in the | mind as when it involves physical presence. Thinking about another |
| Tx:4.26 | Your own present state is a good example of how the | mind made the ego. You do have knowledge at times, but when you throw |
| Tx:4.26 | I am using your present state [as an example] of how the | mind can work, provided you fully recognize that it need not work |
| Tx:4.33 | because this premise is its foundation. The ego is the belief of the | mind that it is completely on its own. Its ceaseless attempts to gain |
| Tx:4.36 | cannot survive without judgment and is laid aside accordingly. The | mind then has only one direction in which it can move. The direction |
| Tx:4.36 | has only one direction in which it can move. The direction which the | mind will take is always automatic, because it cannot but be dictated |
| Tx:4.36 | because it cannot but be dictated by the thought system to which the | mind adheres. |

| Tx:4.55 | how little you have been willing to expend to protect your higher | mind. Who but the insane would undertake to believe what is not true |
| Tx:4.57 | We have said that you cannot change your | mind by changing your behavior, but we have also said, and many times |
| Tx:4.57 | we have also said, and many times before, that you can change your | mind. When your mood tells you that you have chosen wrongly, and this |
| Tx:4.58 | to you, but it is much easier than trying to think against it. Your | mind is one with God's. Denying this and thinking otherwise has held |
| Tx:4.58 | otherwise has held your ego together but has literally split your | mind. As a loving brother, I am deeply concerned with your mind and |
| Tx:4.58 | your mind. As a loving brother, I am deeply concerned with your | mind and urge you to follow my example as you look at yourselves and |
| Tx:4.61 | ego to me. That is what Atonement is for. But until you change your | mind about those your ego has hurt, the Atonement cannot release you. |
| Tx:4.62 | Watch your | mind for the temptations of the ego and do not be deceived by it. |
| Tx:4.62 | you have given up this voluntary dispiriting, you will see how your | mind can focus and rise above fatigue and heal. Yet you are not |
| Tx:4.64 | Your | mind and mine can unite in shining your ego away and releasing the |

| Tx:4.67 | Although I am not attacking your egos, I am working with your higher | mind whether you are asleep or awake, just as your ego does with your |
| Tx:4.67 | you are asleep or awake, just as your ego does with your lower | mind. I am your vigilance in this, because you are too confused to |
| Tx:4.69 | it devotes its maximum vigilance. This is not the way a balanced | mind holds together. Its control is unconscious. The ego is further |
| Tx:4.71 | idea that the body is good enough to be its home. Here is where the | mind becomes actually dazed. Being told by the ego that it is really |
| Tx:4.71 | is really part of the body and that the body is its protector, the | mind is also constantly informed that the body can not protect it. |
| Tx:4.72 | Therefore the | mind asks, “Where can I go for protection?” to which the ego replies, |
| Tx:4.72 | I go for protection?” to which the ego replies, “Turn to me.” The | mind, and not without cause, reminds the ego that it has itself |
| Tx:4.73 | directed. The goal must be formulated clearly and kept in | mind. As a teacher with some experience, let me remind you that |
| Tx:4.74 | to do so it could have made the eternal because, as a product of the | mind, it is endowed with the power of its own creator. However, the |
| Tx:4.75 | questions, it hopes to hide the real question and keep it out of | mind. The ego's characteristic busyness with non-essentials is for |
| Tx:4.76 | to relate the concept to the unimportant in an effort to satisfy the | mind without jeopardizing itself. Thus, it has permitted minds to |

| Tx:4.78 | which you must learn to ask in connection with everything your | mind wishes to undertake. What is the purpose? Whatever it is, you |
| Tx:4.80 | yourselves are willing to limit the questions you raise about his | mind because you are also accepting these limits for yours. This |
| Tx:4.82 | That is its essential difference from everything else the | mind can grasp. “A little knowledge” is not dangerous except to the |
| Tx:4.88 | that the ego and the Soul do not know each other. The separated | mind cannot maintain the separation except by dissociating. Having |

| Tx:4.97 | cannot endow itself with functions it was not given. That is why the | mind cannot totally lose the ability to communicate, even though it |
| Tx:4.98 | is completely without these distinctions. It is a state in which the | mind is in communication with everything that is real, including the |
| Tx:4.99 | and “being” as there is in existence. In the state of being, the | mind gives everything always. |
| Tx:4.101 | He cannot share His joy with you until you know it with your whole | mind. Even revelation is not enough because it is communication from |
| Tx:4.101 | its content cannot be expressed, and it is intensely personal to the | mind which receives it. It can, however, still be returned by that |
| Tx:4.101 | mind which receives it. It can, however, still be returned by that | mind through its attitudes to other minds which the knowledge from |
| Tx:4.102 | God is praised whenever any | mind learns to be wholly helpful. This is impossible without being |
| Tx:4.102 | through them, and there is great joy throughout the Kingdom. Every | mind that is changed adds to this joy with its own individual |
| Tx:4.103 | Every | mind which is split needs rehabilitation. The medical orientation to |

| Tx:4.105 | hurt need true helpfulness, and whenever they are met with this, the | mind that so meets them heals itself. Rehabilitation is an attitude |
| Tx:5.5 | lets God Himself go out into them and through them. Only the healed | mind can experience revelation with lasting effect, because |
| Tx:5.5 | of pure joy. If you do not choose to be wholly joyous, your | mind cannot have what it does not choose to be. Remember that the |
| Tx:5.5 | Soul knows no difference between “being” and “having.” The higher | mind thinks according to the laws which the Soul obeys and therefore |
| Tx:5.6 | of thinking is totally alien to having things, even to the lower | mind it is quite comprehensible in connection with ideas. If you |
| Tx:5.6 | to whom you give it accepts it as his, he reinforces it in your | mind, and thus increases it. If you can accept the concept that the |
| Tx:5.9 | own invitation. The Holy Spirit is nothing more than your own right | mind. He was also mine. The Bible says, “May the mind be in you that |
| Tx:5.9 | than your own right mind. He was also mine. The Bible says, “May the | mind be in you that was also in Christ Jesus,” and uses this as a |
| Tx:5.11 | it, although you can never lose it. The Holy Spirit is the Christ | Mind, which senses the knowledge that lies beyond perception. It came |
| Tx:5.12 | that they could reach almost back to Him. The Holy Spirit is the | Mind of the Atonement. It represents a state of mind that comes close |
| Tx:5.12 | Holy Spirit is the Mind of the Atonement. It represents a state of | mind that comes close enough to One-Mindedness that transfer to it is |
| Tx:5.16 | it points the way beyond the healing which it brings and leads the | mind beyond its own integration into the paths of creation. |
| Tx:5.17 | by letting it go. This will is in you, because God placed it in your | mind, and although you can keep it asleep, you cannot obliterate it. |
| Tx:5.18 | God Himself keeps this will alive by transmitting it from His | Mind to yours as long as there is time. It is partly His and partly |
| Tx:5.18 | blessed the minds of His separated Sons. This is the vocation of the | mind. The mind had no calling until the separation, because before |
| Tx:5.18 | minds of His separated Sons. This is the vocation of the mind. The | mind had no calling until the separation, because before that it had |
| Tx:5.18 | the means by which the Atonement could repair until the whole | mind returned to creating. |
| Tx:5.20 | is the call to Atonement or the restoration of the integrity of the | mind. When the Atonement is complete and the whole Sonship is healed, |
| Tx:5.24 | compelling only because of what it reminds you of. It brings to your | mind the other way, remaining quiet even in the midst of the turmoil |
| Tx:5.25 | The Holy Spirit is your Guide in choosing. He is the part of your | mind which always speaks for the right choice because He speaks for |
| Tx:5.26 | you, because the call of both is in your will and therefore in your | mind. The Voice for God comes from your own altars to Him. These |
| Tx:5.27 | My | mind will always be like yours, because we were created as equals. It |
| Tx:5.27 | to share. It is made by giving and is therefore the one act of | mind that resembles true creation. You understand the role of |
| Tx:5.28 | I promised you that the | mind that made the decision for me is also in you and that you can |
| Tx:5.28 | you and that you can let it change you just as it changed me. This | mind is unequivocal, because it hears only one voice and answers in |
| Tx:5.30 | enjoined you to behave as I behaved, but we must respond to the same | mind to do this. This mind is the Holy Spirit, whose will is for God |
| Tx:5.30 | as I behaved, but we must respond to the same mind to do this. This | mind is the Holy Spirit, whose will is for God always. He teaches you |
| Tx:5.32 | so we can use the terms as if they were related, because in His | Mind they are. The relationship must be in His Mind because, unless |
| Tx:5.32 | because in His Mind they are. The relationship must be in His | Mind because, unless it were, the separation between the two ways of |
| Tx:5.32 | not be open to healing. He is part of the Holy Trinity because His | Mind is partly yours and also partly God's. This needs clarification, |
| Tx:5.34 | are diametrically opposed to each other. They must both be in your | mind, because you are the perceiver. They must also be in his, |
| Tx:5.34 | you are perceiving him. See him through the Holy Spirit in his | mind, and you will recognize Him in yours. What you acknowledge in |
| Tx:5.35 | is impossible to hear it in yourself while it is so weak in your own | mind. It is not weak in itself, but it is limited by your |
| Tx:5.36 | the same realm of discourse in which the ego itself operates, or the | mind would be unable to understand the change. |
| Tx:5.37 | We have repeatedly emphasized that one level of the | mind is not understandable to another. So it is with the ego and the |
| Tx:5.37 | understands it perfectly. Time is a belief of the ego, so the lower | mind, which is the ego's domain, accepts it without question. The |
| Tx:5.39 | you will react viciously because the idea of danger has entered your | mind. The idea itself is an appeal to the ego. |
| Tx:5.40 | of your beliefs. The separation is merely another term for a split | mind. It was not an act, but a thought. Therefore, the idea of |
| Tx:5.40 | idea of unity can. Either way, the idea will be strengthened in the | mind of the giver. |
| Tx:5.41 | perceive in others, you are strengthening in yourself. You let your | mind misperceive, but the Holy Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its |
| Tx:5.41 | You let your mind misperceive, but the Holy Spirit lets your | mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The Holy Spirit is the |
| Tx:5.41 | perfectly, because it is His own dwelling place or the place in the | mind where He is at home. |
| Tx:5.42 | Spirit must perceive time and reinterpret it into the timeless. The | mind must be led into eternity through time because, having made |
| Tx:5.43 | must work through opposites, because He must work with and for a | mind that is in opposition. Correct and learn and be open to |
| Tx:5.47 | but it can increase as you are willing to return the part of your | mind that needs healing to the higher part and thus render your |
| Tx:5.50 | cancel out your past errors alone. They will not disappear from your | mind without remedy. The remedy is not of your making, any more than |
| Tx:5.52 | means the will to share the voice in order to hear it yourself. The | mind that was in me is still irresistibly drawn to every mind created |
| Tx:5.52 | The mind that was in me is still irresistibly drawn to every | mind created by God, because God's Wholeness is the wholeness of His |
| Tx:5.54 | is the name of God's Son. What I learned I give you freely, and the | mind which was in me rejoices as you choose to hear it. The Holy |
| Tx:5.54 | of us by undoing and thus lifts the burden you have placed in your | mind. By following Him, He leads you back to God where you belong, |
| Tx:5.56 | Ideas do not leave the | mind which thought them to have a separate being, nor do separate |
| Tx:5.57 | The Atonement gives you the power of a healed | mind, but the power to create is of God. Therefore, those who have |
| Tx:5.59 | logic is as impeccable as that of the Holy Spirit, because your | mind has all the means at its disposal to side with Heaven or earth, |
| Tx:5.61 | The ego is the part of the | mind which believes in division. How can part of God detach itself |
| Tx:5.62 | However ridiculous the idea of attacking God may be to the sane | mind, never forget that the ego is not sane. It represents a |
| Tx:5.63 | Whatever you accept into your | mind has reality for you. It is, however, only your acceptance of it |
| Tx:5.63 | it or allowed it to enter makes it your reality. This is because the | mind, as God created it, is capable of creating reality. We said |
| Tx:5.64 | as doom, but you must learn to regard it as freedom. The guiltless | mind cannot suffer. Being sane, it heals the body because it has been |
| Tx:5.64 | Being sane, it heals the body because it has been healed. The sane | mind cannot conceive of illness, because it cannot conceive of |
| Tx:5.67 | a decision. Together they constitute all the alternatives which the | mind can accept and obey. The ego and the Holy Spirit are the only |
| Tx:5.68 | obey its orders. This makes them feel responsible for their | mind errors, without recognizing that by accepting this |
| Tx:5.70 | results of this decision at that time. Any decision of the | mind will affect both behavior and experience. What you will, you |
| Tx:5.70 | experience. What you will, you expect. This is not delusional. Your | mind does create your future, and it can turn it back to full |
| Tx:5.73 | The | mind does indeed know its power, because the mind does indeed know |
| Tx:5.73 | The mind does indeed know its power, because the | mind does indeed know God. Remember the Kingdom always, and remember |
| Tx:5.73 | remember that you who are part of the Kingdom cannot be lost. The | mind that was in me is in you, for God creates with perfect fairness. |
| Tx:5.76 | Spirit, who will undo it in you because it does not belong in your | mind, which is part of God. |
| Tx:5.78 | given to the ego will merely return to the Kingdom, where your whole | mind belongs. The ego is a form of arrest, but arrest is merely |
| Tx:5.83 | terms. For example, “God will keep him in perfect peace whose | mind is stayed (or set) on Him,” a statement which means that God's |
| Tx:5.84 | was extremely ingenious because Freud was extremely ingenious, and a | mind must endow its thoughts with its own attributes. This is its |
| Tx:5.85 | Fixation is the pull of God, on whom your | mind is fixed because of the Holy Spirit's irrevocable set. |
| Tx:5.85 | basis for His unequivocal Voice. The Holy Spirit never changes His | Mind. Clarity of thought cannot occur under conditions of |
| Tx:5.85 | of thought cannot occur under conditions of vacillation. Unless a | mind is fixed in its purpose, it is not clear. Clarity literally |
| Tx:5.86 | real release from the time belief, had Freud pursued it with an open | mind. Freud, however, suffered all his life from refusal to allow |
| Tx:5.86 | all his life from refusal to allow eternity to dawn upon his | mind and enlighten it truly. As a result, he overlooked now entirely |
| Tx:5.87 | Therefore, he emphasized that the point in development at which the | mind is fixated is more real to itself than the external reality with |
| Tx:5.88 | fixation as involving irrevocable “danger points” to which the | mind could always regress, the concept can also be interpreted as an |
| Tx:5.88 | can also be interpreted as an irrevocable call to sanity which the | mind cannot lose. Freud himself could not accept this interpretation, |
| Tx:5.88 | as well as theoretically. He tried every means his very inventive | mind could devise to set up a form of therapy which could enable the |
| Tx:5.88 | mind could devise to set up a form of therapy which could enable the | mind to escape from fixation forever, even though he knew this was |
| Tx:5.91 | is no order of difficulty in miracles. He has not learned that every | mind God created is equally worthy of being healed because God |
| Tx:5.91 | God created it whole. You are merely asked to return to God the | mind as He created it. He asks you only for what He gave, knowing |
| Tx:5.92 | to Him. He wills to keep it in perfect peace, because you are of one | mind and spirit with Him. Excluding yourself from the Atonement is |
| Tx:6.25 | of God, which is His peace, cannot be appreciated except by a whole | mind which recognizes the wholeness of God's creation and by this |
| Tx:6.27 | will always hurt you. It reinforces your belief in your own split | mind, and its only purpose is to keep the separation going. It is |
| Tx:6.28 | has a better counterpart, because its abilities are directed by the | mind which has a better Voice. The Holy Spirit as well as the ego |
| Tx:6.32 | His Thought and retaining the extensions of His Thought in His | Mind. All His Thoughts are thus perfectly united within themselves |
| Tx:6.33 | Thoughts begin in the | mind of the thinker from which they [extend] outward. This is as true |
| Tx:6.33 | well as think. Yet perception cannot escape from the basic laws of | mind. You perceive from your mind and extend your perceptions |
| Tx:6.33 | cannot escape from the basic laws of mind. You perceive from your | mind and extend your perceptions outward. Although perception of any |
| Tx:6.33 | This convergence seems to be far in the future only because your | mind is not in perfect alignment with the idea and therefore does not |
| Tx:6.34 | this because he speaks for God. He tells you to return your whole | mind to God, because it has never left Him. If it has never left Him, |
| Tx:6.36 | This line is the direct line of communication with God and lets your | mind converge with His. There is no conflict anywhere in this |
| Tx:6.36 | it means that all perception is guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose | Mind is fixed on God. Only the Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, |
| Tx:6.36 | Holy Spirit is conflict-free. He perceives only what is true in your | mind and extends outward only to what is true in other minds. |
| Tx:6.37 | to deceive. The Holy Spirit projects by recognizing Himself in every | mind and thus perceives them as one. Nothing conflicts in this |
| Tx:6.38 | The great peace of the Kingdom shines in your | mind forever, but it must shine outward to make you aware of it. The |
| Tx:6.38 | but your part is only to allow no darkness to abide in your own | mind. This alignment with light is unlimited, because it is in |
| Tx:6.39 | This is because, as we have said before, every idea begins in the | mind of the thinker and extends outward. Therefore, what extends from |
| Tx:6.39 | of the thinker and extends outward. Therefore, what extends from the | mind is still in it, and from what it extends it knows itself. That |
| Tx:6.40 | communication of God. Thus, being is never threatened. Your Godlike | mind can never be defiled. The ego never was and never will be part |
| Tx:6.42 | Holy Spirit because, as you see His gentleness in others, your own | mind perceives itself as totally harmless. Once it can accept this |
| Tx:6.42 | They bless because they know they are blessed. Without anxiety the | mind is wholly kind, and because it projects beneficence, it is |
| Tx:6.46 | separate and outside its maker, thus speaking for the part of your | mind that believes you are separate and outside the Mind of God. The |
| Tx:6.46 | the part of your mind that believes you are separate and outside the | Mind of God. The ego, then, raised the first question that was ever |
| Tx:6.48 | hear the Holy Spirit, but it does believe that part of the same | mind that made it is against it. It interprets this as a |
| Tx:6.48 | though not of brothers. Perceiving something alien to itself in your | mind, the ego turns to the body, not the mind, as its ally, because |
| Tx:6.48 | alien to itself in your mind, the ego turns to the body, not the | mind, as its ally, because the body is not part of you. This makes |
| Tx:6.49 | involves. The ego, which is not real, attempts to persuade the | mind, which is real, that the mind is its own learning device and |
| Tx:6.49 | is not real, attempts to persuade the mind, which is real, that the | mind is its own learning device and that the learning device is more |
| Tx:6.49 | the learning device is more real than it is. No one in his right | mind could possibly believe this, and no one in his right mind does |
| Tx:6.49 | his right mind could possibly believe this, and no one in his right | mind does believe it. |
| Tx:6.55 | Spirit demonstrates does not exist. Fidelity to premises is a law of | mind, and everything God created is faithful to His laws. Fidelity to |
| Tx:6.57 | your own perfection. Could God teach you that you had made a split | mind, when He knows your mind only as whole? What God does know is |
| Tx:6.57 | God teach you that you had made a split mind, when He knows your | mind only as whole? What God does know is that His communication |
| Tx:6.61 | nothing. Everything is accomplished through life, and life is of the | mind and in the mind. The body neither lives nor dies, because it |
| Tx:6.61 | is accomplished through life, and life is of the mind and in the | mind. The body neither lives nor dies, because it cannot contain you |
| Tx:6.61 | because it cannot contain you who are life. If we share the same | mind, you can overcome death because I did. Death is an attempt to |
| Tx:6.62 | an argument for separation into a demonstration against it. If the | mind can heal the body but the body cannot heal the mind, then the |
| Tx:6.62 | it. If the mind can heal the body but the body cannot heal the | mind, then the mind must be stronger. Every miracle demonstrates this. |
| Tx:6.62 | mind can heal the body but the body cannot heal the mind, then the | mind must be stronger. Every miracle demonstrates this. |
| Tx:6.63 | for miracles. This is because He always tells you that only the | mind is real since only the mind can be shared. The body is separate |
| Tx:6.63 | He always tells you that only the mind is real since only the | mind can be shared. The body is separate and therefore cannot be part |
| Tx:6.63 | body is separate and therefore cannot be part of you. To be of one | mind is meaningful, but to be of one body is meaningless. By the laws |
| Tx:6.63 | is meaningful, but to be of one body is meaningless. By the laws of | mind, then, the body is meaningless. To the Holy Spirit, there is no |
| Tx:6.72 | change. This is because a change in motivation is a change of | mind, and this will inevitably produce fundamental change, because |
| Tx:6.72 | and this will inevitably produce fundamental change, because the | mind is fundamental. The first step in the reversal or undoing |
| Tx:6.73 | to contain a contradiction since it is being learned by a conflicted | mind. This means conflicting motivation, and so the lesson cannot be |
| Tx:6.73 | so the lesson cannot be learned consistently as yet. Further, the | mind of the learner projects its own split, and thus does not |
| Tx:6.74 | thought. The fundamental change will still occur with the change of | mind in the thinker. Meanwhile, the increasing clarity of the Holy |
| Tx:6.75 | two thought systems which are in complete disagreement, peace of | mind is impossible. If you teach both, which you will surely do as |
| Tx:6.82 | does not extend beyond you, or you would share it. In your | mind, and your mind only, He sorts out the true from the false and |
| Tx:6.82 | not extend beyond you, or you would share it. In your mind, and your | mind only, He sorts out the true from the false and teaches you to |
| Tx:6.82 | and teaches you to judge every thought that you allow to enter your | mind in the light of what God put there. Whatever is in accord with |
| Tx:6.84 | The Holy Spirit does not teach your | mind to be critical of other minds, because He does not want you to |
| Tx:6.84 | if He allowed you to strengthen what you must learn to avoid. In the | mind of the thinker, then, He is judgmental, but only in order to |
| Tx:6.84 | the thinker, then, He is judgmental, but only in order to unify the | mind so it can perceive without judgment. This enables the mind to |
| Tx:6.84 | unify the mind so it can perceive without judgment. This enables the | mind to teach without judgment and therefore to learn to be without |
| Tx:6.84 | learn to be without judgment. The undoing is necessary only in your | mind so that you cannot project falsely. God Himself has established |
| Tx:6.89 | in your minds only what God put there, you are acknowledging your | mind as God created it. Therefore, you are accepting it as it is. |
| Tx:6.93 | why vigilance is essential. Doubts about being must not enter your | mind, or you cannot know what you are with certainty. Certainty is of |
| Tx:6.94 | only the Kingdom of God in your minds and thus placed part of your | mind outside it. What you have made has thus divided your will and |
| Tx:6.94 | What you have made has thus divided your will and given you a sick | mind which must be healed. Your vigilance against this sickness is |
| Tx:6.94 | vigilance against this sickness is the way to heal it. Once your | mind is healed, it radiates health and thereby teaches healing. This |
| Tx:7.10 | What you project you believe. This is an immutable law of the | mind in this world as well as in the Kingdom. However, the content is |
| Tx:7.11 | The outstanding characteristic of the laws of | mind as they operate in this world is that by obeying them—and I |
| Tx:7.11 | in which diametrically opposed outcomes are believed in. The laws of | mind govern thoughts, and you do respond to two conflicting voices. |
| Tx:7.13 | of himself as bounded by a body. Only if he perceives himself as a | mind can [he overcome this]. Then he is free to use terms like |
| Tx:7.27 | then, is always being undone and does suspect your motives. Your | mind cannot be unified in allegiance to the ego, because the mind |
| Tx:7.27 | Your mind cannot be unified in allegiance to the ego, because the | mind does not belong to it. Yet what is “treacherous” to the ego is |
| Tx:7.31 | Spirit is not asleep in the minds of the sick, but the part of the | mind that can perceive it and be glad is. |
| Tx:7.33 | from His Voice and from His laws. It is their result, in a state of | mind which does not know Him. The state is unknown to Him and |
| Tx:7.36 | is therefore in accord with the laws of God, even in a state of | mind which is out of accord with His. The strength of right |
| Tx:7.36 | His. The strength of right perception is so great that it brings the | mind into accord with His, because it yields to His pull which is in |
| Tx:7.40 | body can both communicate and create and therefore does not need the | mind. The ego thus tries to teach you that the body can act like the |
| Tx:7.40 | mind. The ego thus tries to teach you that the body can act like the | mind and is therefore self-sufficient. Yet we have learned that |
| Tx:7.41 | no other, because He does not accept the ego's confusion of | mind and body. Minds can communicate, but they cannot hurt. The body |
| Tx:7.41 | this cannot occur unless the body has already been confused with the | mind. This fact, too, can be used either for healing or for magic, |
| Tx:7.43 | as truly helpful at the time, but the belief that he is, in the | mind of another, helps him. |
| Tx:7.45 | in terms and is therefore a concept which only a conflicted | mind could possibly perceive as meaningful. Fear does not gladden. |
| Tx:7.47 | and change the world in the next. That is because by changing his | mind he has changed the most powerful device that was ever created |
| Tx:7.48 | This in no way contradicts the changelessness of | mind as God created it, but you think that you have changed it as |
| Tx:7.48 | a lesson which seems contradictory—you must learn to change your | mind about your mind. Only by this can you learn that it is |
| Tx:7.48 | seems contradictory—you must learn to change your mind about your | mind. Only by this can you learn that it is changeless. When you heal |
| Tx:7.48 | is exactly what you are learning. You are recognizing the changeless | mind in your brother by realizing that he could not have changed his |
| Tx:7.48 | mind in your brother by realizing that he could not have changed his | mind. That is how you perceive the Holy Spirit in him. It is only the |
| Tx:7.48 | in him. It is only the Holy Spirit in him that never changes His | Mind. He himself must think he can, or he would not perceive himself |
| Tx:7.49 | in him, you have not really changed him at all. By changing your | mind about his for him, you help him undo the change his ego thinks |
| Tx:7.51 | most holy children of a most holy Father?] Yet I do want to share my | mind with you, because we are of One Mind and that Mind is ours. |
| Tx:7.51 | Yet I do want to share my mind with you, because we are of One | Mind and that Mind is ours. |
| Tx:7.51 | want to share my mind with you, because we are of One Mind and that | Mind is ours. |
| Tx:7.52 | See only this | mind everywhere, because only this is everywhere and in everything. |
| Tx:7.52 | is true. Come therefore unto me and learn of the truth in you. The | mind we share is shared by all our brothers, and as we see them |
| Tx:7.52 | brothers, and as we see them truly, they will be healed. Let your | mind shine with mine upon their minds and by our gratitude to them |
| Tx:7.54 | the Holy Spirit begets or inspires them, but they will return to the | mind of the thinker, and they will affect his total perception. That |
| Tx:7.55 | The | mind that accepts attack cannot love. That is because it believes |
| Tx:7.56 | to preserve itself is enormous, but it stems from the power of the | mind, which the ego denies. This means that the ego attacks what is |
| Tx:7.58 | Mind always reproduces as it was produced. Produced by fear, the ego | |
| Tx:7.58 | the only decision which the ego could possibly encounter, if the | mind which made it knew itself. And if it recognized any part of the |
| Tx:7.59 | threat as total, because it senses the fact that all commitments the | mind makes are total. Forced, therefore, to detach itself from you |
| Tx:7.59 | are total. Forced, therefore, to detach itself from you who are | mind, it is willing to attach itself to anything else. But there is |
| Tx:7.59 | else. But there is nothing else. It does not follow that the | mind cannot make illusions, but it does follow that if it makes |
| Tx:7.61 | If you will keep in | mind what the Holy Spirit offers you, you cannot be vigilant for |
| Tx:7.62 | attack God and tries to persuade you that you have done this. If the | mind cannot attack, the ego proceeds perfectly logically to the |
| Tx:7.62 | ego proceeds perfectly logically to the position that you cannot be | mind. By not seeing you as you are, it can see itself as it wants to |
| Tx:7.62 | but not as you really are. The ego therefore wants to engage your | mind in its own delusional system, because otherwise the light of |
| Tx:7.65 | gift to you, because it is what you are. If you dissociate your | mind from it, you are perceiving the most powerful force in the |
| Tx:7.70 | It has no power in itself, but you can give it the power of your | mind, whose power is without limit of any kind. If you use it to deny |
| Tx:7.71 | you to recognize only part of reality to appreciate all of it. | Mind is too powerful to be subject to exclusion. You will never be |
| Tx:7.74 | will have no life for you, because you have put them out of your | mind. While you include them in it, you are giving life to them, |
| Tx:7.79 | Being the part of your | mind which does not believe it is responsible for itself and being |
| Tx:7.82 | there can be no love. Projection is a fundamental law of the | mind and therefore one which always operates. It is the law by which |
| Tx:7.82 | created. It is the law which unifies the Kingdom and keeps it in the | Mind of God. To the ego, the law is perceived as a way of getting rid |
| Tx:7.82 | by which you give what you value in order to keep it in your own | mind. |
| Tx:7.83 | to you to decide whether or not you will utilize projection. Every | mind must project, because that is how it lives, and every mind is |
| Tx:7.83 | Every mind must project, because that is how it lives, and every | mind is life. The ego's use of projection must be fully understood |
| Tx:7.84 | its own warped version of the laws of God, utilizes the power of the | mind only to defeat the mind's real purpose. It projects conflict |
| Tx:7.84 | to defeat the mind's real purpose. It projects conflict from your | mind to other minds in an attempt to persuade you that you have |
| Tx:7.86 | is no way out of this, because it is impossible to fragment the | mind. |
| Tx:7.87 | To fragment is to break into pieces, and | mind cannot attack or be attacked. The belief that it can, a fallacy |
| Tx:7.87 | underlies its whole use of projection. It does not understand what | mind is and therefore does not understand what you are. Yet its |
| Tx:7.87 | not understand what you are. Yet its existence is dependent on your | mind, because the ego is your belief. The ego is therefore a |
| Tx:7.88 | Do not be afraid of the ego. It does depend on your | mind and, as you made it by believing in it, so you can dispel it by |
| Tx:7.91 | that is how God created it. The Holy Spirit is the part of the | mind that lies between the ego and the Soul, mediating between them |
| Tx:7.94 | The Kingdom is forever extending, because it is in the | Mind of God. You do not know your joy, because you do not know your |
| Tx:7.94 | part of the Kingdom from yourself, and you are not whole. A split | mind cannot perceive its fullness and needs the miracle of its |
| Tx:7.95 | are protected for you, because the Holy Spirit, Who is in your | mind, knows of them and can bring them into your awareness whenever |
| Tx:7.99 | are therefore there, exactly where they belong. They belong in your | mind as part of your identification with His, but your state of mind |
| Tx:7.99 | your mind as part of your identification with His, but your state of | mind and your recognition of what is in your mind depend at any given |
| Tx:7.99 | His, but your state of mind and your recognition of what is in your | mind depend at any given moment on what you believe about your mind. |
| Tx:7.99 | your mind depend at any given moment on what you believe about your | mind. Whatever these beliefs may be, they are the premises which will |
| Tx:7.99 | they are the premises which will determine what you accept into your | mind. It is surely clear that you can both accept into your mind what |
| Tx:7.99 | your mind. It is surely clear that you can both accept into your | mind what is not really there and deny what is. Neither of these |
| Tx:7.105 | of the confusion which you have made. There is no confusion in the | mind of a Son of God whose will must be the Will of the Father, |
| Tx:7.110 | the Holy Spirit, Who wants to teach him everything He knows. When a | mind has only light, it knows only light. Its own radiance shines all |
| Tx:8.3 | them on the basis of loss of peace, they will be removed from your | mind for you. Every response to the ego is a call to war, and war |
| Tx:8.7 | Your reality is unaffected by both, but if you listen to both, your | mind will be split about what your reality is. |
| Tx:8.12 | the same, how can you tell them apart? Can you ask the part of your | mind that taught you to believe they are the same to teach you the |
| Tx:8.30 | collaborate by believing that I know what to do. Only then will your | mind choose to follow me. Without your will, you cannot be |
| Tx:8.32 | If you want to be different, I will wait until you change your | mind. I can teach you, but only you can choose to listen to my |
| Tx:8.48 | Yet their thought is so powerful that they can even imprison the | mind of God's Son if they so choose. This choice does make the Son's |
| Tx:8.53 | Attack is always physical. When attack in any form enters your | mind, you are equating yourself with a body. This is the ego's |
| Tx:8.54 | yours and mine. This interpretation of the body will change your | mind entirely about its value. Of itself it has none. |
| Tx:8.55 | that this is not so, you will begin to understand the power of the | mind that is in both of you. If you use the body for this and only |
| Tx:8.57 | must bring him his. Do not allow him to belittle himself in your | mind, but give him freedom from his belief in littleness and thus |
| Tx:8.61 | Spirit, it is not. It becomes only a means by which the part of the | mind you have separated from your Soul can reach beyond its |
| Tx:8.62 | is natural, it heals by making whole, which is also natural. All | mind is whole, and the belief that part of it is physical, or not |
| Tx:8.62 | mind is whole, and the belief that part of it is physical, or not | mind, is a fragmented (or sick) interpretation. Mind cannot be made |
| Tx:8.62 | is physical, or not mind, is a fragmented (or sick) interpretation. | Mind cannot be made physical, but it can be made manifest through the |
| Tx:8.62 | if it uses the body to go beyond itself. By reaching out, the | mind extends itself. It does not stop at the body, for if it does, it |
| Tx:8.62 | stop at the body, for if it does, it is blocked in its purpose. A | mind which has been blocked has allowed itself to be vulnerable to |
| Tx:8.63 | help and healing. Help and healing are the normal expressions of a | mind which is working through the body but not in it. If the mind |
| Tx:8.63 | of a mind which is working through the body but not in it. If the | mind believes the body is its goal, it will distort its perception of |
| Tx:8.64 | of the body can be unified only by one purpose. This releases the | mind from the temptation to see the body in many lights and gives it |
| Tx:8.64 | must lead beyond the body to the reestablishment of the power of the | mind in it. This can be accomplished only if the mind extends to |
| Tx:8.64 | of the power of the mind in it. This can be accomplished only if the | mind extends to other minds and does not arrest itself in its |
| Tx:8.65 | a body as anything except a means of pure extension is to limit your | mind and hurt yourself. Health is therefore nothing more than united |
| Tx:8.65 | than united purpose. If the body is brought under the purpose of the | mind, the body becomes whole, because the mind's purpose is one. |
| Tx:8.65 | can only be an assumed purpose of the body, because apart from the | mind the body has no purpose at all. |
| Tx:8.66 | are not limited by the body, and thought cannot be made flesh. Yet | mind can be manifested through the body if it goes beyond it and does |
| Tx:8.68 | Do not arrest your thought in this world, and you will open your | mind to creation in God. |
| Tx:8.79 | used otherwise is. Do not allow the body to be a mirror of a split | mind. Do not let it be an image of your own perception of littleness. |
| Tx:8.82 | Wholeness heals because it is of the | mind. All forms of sickness, even unto death, are physical |
| Tx:8.85 | which always weakens the will, wants to separate the body from the | mind. This is an attempt to destroy it, yet the ego actually believes |
| Tx:8.85 | that it is protecting it. This is because the ego believes that | mind is dangerous and that to make mindless is to heal. But to make |
| Tx:8.88 | God lays none upon you. When you limit yourself, we are not of one | mind and that is sickness. Yet sickness is not of the body, but of |
| Tx:8.88 | and that is sickness. Yet sickness is not of the body, but of the | mind. All forms of dysfunction are merely signs that the mind has |
| Tx:8.88 | but of the mind. All forms of dysfunction are merely signs that the | mind has split and does not accept a unified purpose. |
| Tx:8.90 | of the Will of God is one of the strangest beliefs that the human | mind has ever made. This could not possibly have occurred unless the |
| Tx:8.90 | mind has ever made. This could not possibly have occurred unless the | mind were already profoundly split, making it possible for the mind |
| Tx:8.90 | the mind were already profoundly split, making it possible for the | mind to be afraid of what it really is. It is apparent that reality |
| Tx:8.93 | of this will can make it real to you because He is in your | mind and therefore He is your reality. If, then, His perception of |
| Tx:8.93 | and therefore He is your reality. If, then, His perception of your | mind brings its reality to you, He is teaching you what you are. |
| Tx:8.95 | not communicate because they speak for different things to the same | mind. This loses the ability to communicate simply because confused |
| Tx:8.97 | No | mind can believe that its will is stronger than God's. If, then, a |
| Tx:8.97 | No mind can believe that its will is stronger than God's. If, then, a | mind believes that its will is different from His, it can only decide |
| Tx:8.103 | consider the result of this strange decision. You are devoting your | mind to what you do not want. How real can this devotion be? If you |
| Tx:8.111 | it? Your brother may not know who he is, but there is a light in his | mind which does know. This light can shine into yours, making his |
| Tx:8.112 | Salvation is of your brother. The Holy Spirit extends from your | mind to his and answers you. You cannot hear the Voice for God in |
| Tx:9.18 | find satisfaction in fantasy, so that his only hope is to change his | mind about reality. Only if the decision that reality is fearful is |
| Tx:9.23 | identified as unreal. Yet if the dreamer is equated with the | mind, the mind's corrective power through the Holy Spirit is denied. |
| Tx:9.27 | who no longer believes in nightmares of any kind. The light in his | mind will therefore answer the questioner, who must decide with God |
| Tx:9.37 | until you remember God's open arms and finally know His open | mind. Like Him, you are “always,” in His Mind and with a mind like |
| Tx:9.37 | and finally know His open mind. Like Him, you are “always,” in His | Mind and with a mind like His. In your open mind are your creations, |
| Tx:9.37 | His open mind. Like Him, you are “always,” in His Mind and with a | mind like His. In your open mind are your creations, in perfect |
| Tx:9.37 | you are “always,” in His Mind and with a mind like His. In your open | mind are your creations, in perfect communication born of perfect |
| Tx:9.40 | and so He evaluates you truly. And this evaluation must be in your | mind because He is. The ego is also in your mind, because you have |
| Tx:9.40 | must be in your mind because He is. The ego is also in your | mind, because you have accepted it there. Its evaluation of you, |
| Tx:9.51 | the faintest hint of your reality literally drives the ego from your | mind because of complete lack of investment in it. Grandeur is |
| Tx:9.52 | your grandeur is your abundance. By blessing, you hold it in your | mind, protecting it from illusions and keeping yourself in the Mind |
| Tx:9.52 | your mind, protecting it from illusions and keeping yourself in the | Mind of God. Remember always that you cannot be anywhere except in |
| Tx:9.52 | of God. Remember always that you cannot be anywhere except in the | Mind of God. When you forget this, you will despair, and you will |
| Tx:9.57 | You are altogether irreplaceable in the | Mind of God. No one else can fill your part of it, and while you |
| Tx:9.57 | would not have it so, and so it is not so. Your value is in God's | Mind and therefore not in yours alone. To accept yourself as God |
| Tx:9.59 | because nothing is beyond you. Time and eternity are both in your | mind and will conflict until you perceive time solely as a means to |
| Tx:9.61 | God does not change His | Mind about you, for He is not uncertain of Himself. And what He knows |
| Tx:9.61 | realize how much is up to you. When anything threatens your peace of | mind, ask yourself, |
| Tx:9.62 | Has God changed His | Mind about me? |
| Tx:9.63 | His decision, for it is indeed changeless, and refuse to change your | mind about yourself. God will never decide against you, or He would |
| Tx:9.64 | because the laws of God protect it by His Love. Any part of your | mind that does not know this has banished itself from knowledge |
| Tx:9.67 | to create, you will have willed away the separation, returning your | mind simultaneously to your Creator and your creations. Knowing them, |
| Tx:9.68 | material is accepted, it ceases to be fearful, for the laws of | mind always hold. |
| Tx:9.70 | To remember is merely to restore to your | mind what is already there. You do not make what you remember; you |
| Tx:9.73 | If you realized the complete havoc this makes of your peace of | mind, you could not make such an insane decision. You make it only |
| Tx:9.73 | want. It follows, then, that you want something other than peace of | mind, but you have not considered what it must be. Yet the logical |
| Tx:9.75 | God would have them released from their sickness and returned to His | Mind. He will not limit your power to help them, because He has given |
| Tx:9.75 | Sonship He is accepted. He is always accepted for all, and when your | mind receives Him, the remembrance of Him awakens throughout the |
| Tx:9.80 | value for you, and it is this value that makes you whole. A whole | mind is not idolatrous and does not know of conflicting laws. I will |
| Tx:9.86 | Reality can dawn only on an unclouded | mind. It is always there to be accepted, but its acceptance depends |
| Tx:9.86 | to evaluate it truly, to let it go. Knowledge cannot dawn on a | mind full of illusions because truth and illusions are |
| Tx:9.86 | are irreconcilable. Truth is whole and cannot be known by part of a | mind. |
| Tx:9.87 | Oneness cannot be divided. If you perceive other gods, your | mind is split, and you will not be able to limit the split because |
| Tx:9.87 | because the split is the sign that you have removed part of your | mind from God's Will, and this means it is out of control. To be out |
| Tx:9.87 | out of control. To be out of control is to be out of reason, and the | mind does become unreasonable without reason. This is merely a matter |
| Tx:9.87 | reason. This is merely a matter of definition. By defining the | mind wrongly, you perceive it as functioning wrongly. |
| Tx:9.90 | of idols becomes inconceivable. There are no strange images in the | Mind of God, and what is not in His Mind cannot be in yours because |
| Tx:9.90 | are no strange images in the Mind of God, and what is not in His | Mind cannot be in yours because you are of One Mind and that Mind |
| Tx:9.90 | what is not in His Mind cannot be in yours because you are of One | Mind and that Mind belongs to Him. It is yours, because it belongs to |
| Tx:9.90 | in His Mind cannot be in yours because you are of One Mind and that | Mind belongs to Him. It is yours, because it belongs to Him, for |
| Tx:9.91 | that his brother can do it. It is a call to the Holy Spirit in his | mind, a call to Him which is strengthened by this joining. Because |
| Tx:9.91 | his belief in sickness, which he does not share. The power of one | mind can shine into another, because all the lamps of God were lit by |
| Tx:9.96 | Sickness and death entered the | Mind of God's Son against His Will. The “attack on God” made His Son |
| Tx:9.101 | If you deny Him, you bring sin, pain, and suffering into your own | mind because of the power He gave it. Your mind is capable of |
| Tx:9.101 | suffering into your own mind because of the power He gave it. Your | mind is capable of creating worlds, but it can also deny what it |
| Tx:9.102 | That was the condition of His Son's creation, fixed forever in the | Mind of God. To know that is sanity. To deny it is insanity. God gave |
| Tx:10.3 | and more obscure becomes the way. Yet even the little spark in your | mind is enough to lighten it. Bring this light fearlessly with you |
| Tx:10.5 | He wills His Son to be and where he is. In whatever part of the | Mind of God's Son you restore this reality, you restore it to |
| Tx:10.5 | this reality, you restore it to yourself. For you dwell in the | Mind of God with your brother, for God Himself did not will to be |
| Tx:10.7 | His Will would not be unified. Is this conceivable? Can part of His | Mind contain nothing? If your place in His Mind cannot be filled by |
| Tx:10.7 | Can part of His Mind contain nothing? If your place in His | Mind cannot be filled by anyone except you, and your filling it was |
| Tx:10.7 | your creation, without you there would be an empty place in God's | Mind. Extension cannot be blocked, and it has no voids. It continues |
| Tx:10.10 | God has given you a place in His | Mind which is yours forever. Yet you could keep it only by giving it, |
| Tx:10.10 | if it was given you because God did not will to be alone? God's | Mind cannot be lessened. It can only be increased, and everything He |
| Tx:10.17 | thought which you accept, either from your brother or in your own | mind, teaches you that you are God's Son. In every hurtful thought |
| Tx:10.20 | and the little spark becomes a blazing light that fills your | mind so that He becomes your only Guest. Whenever you ask the ego to |
| Tx:10.28 | not be deceived by the dark comforters, and never let them enter the | Mind of God's Son, for they have no place in His temple. When you are |
| Tx:10.29 | not know that you are there. For what is unlike God cannot enter His | Mind because it was not His Thought and therefore does not belong to |
| Tx:10.30 | be excluded if he would know the Wholeness of his Father. In your | mind, you can accept the whole Sonship and bless it with the light |
| Tx:10.31 | to you, it is His. Your Soul does not need salvation, but your | mind needs to learn what salvation is. You are not saved from |
| Tx:10.33 | would not do so if you realized that you can only darken your own | mind. As you bring him back, so will your mind return. That is the |
| Tx:10.33 | can only darken your own mind. As you bring him back, so will your | mind return. That is the law of God for the protection of the |
| Tx:10.54 | must be true if truth has meaning. Holding error clearly in | mind and protecting what it has made real, the ego proceeds to the |
| Tx:10.70 | thought that the Son of God ever had is eternal. Those which his | mind perceived in this world are the world's only reality. They are |
| Tx:10.84 | see only his loving thoughts as his reality, for by denying that his | mind is split, you will heal yours. Accept him as his Father accepts |
| Tx:10.86 | accept your brother's variable perception of himself, for his split | mind is yours, and you will not accept your healing without his. For |
| Tx:10.87 | If you perceive offense in a brother, pluck the offense from your | mind, for you are offended by Christ and are deceived in Him. Heal in |
| Tx:11.2 | a mental split in which you have attacked the integrity of your | mind and pitted one level within it against another. |
| Tx:11.4 | Perhaps the danger of this to your own | mind is not yet fully apparent to you, but this by no means signifies |
| Tx:11.7 | of reality, Who understands what it is. He does not change His | Mind about reality because reality does not change. Although your |
| Tx:11.14 | the truth is in them. Yet, having obscured it, the light in another | mind must shine into theirs because that light is theirs. |
| Tx:11.28 | Salvation is for the | mind, and it is attained through peace. This is the only thing that |
| Tx:11.30 | of God's Son are the world's reality, the real world must be in his | mind. His insane thoughts, too, must be in his mind, but an internal |
| Tx:11.30 | world must be in his mind. His insane thoughts, too, must be in his | mind, but an internal conflict of this magnitude he cannot tolerate. |
| Tx:11.30 | an internal conflict of this magnitude he cannot tolerate. A split | mind is endangered, and the recognition that it encompasses |
| Tx:11.30 | opposed thoughts within itself is intolerable. Therefore the | mind projects the split, not the reality. Everything you perceive as |
| Tx:11.31 | this way. That is why you must realize that your hatred is in your | mind and not outside it before you can get rid of it and why you must |
| Tx:11.32 | the real world in exchange for the one you made out of your split | mind, and which is the symbol of death. For if you could really |
| Tx:11.32 | of death. For if you could really separate yourselves from the | Mind of God, you would die, and the world you perceive is a world of |
| Tx:11.33 | For it was made out of what you do not want, projected from your | mind because you were afraid of it. |
| Tx:11.34 | Yet this world is only in the | mind of its maker along with his real salvation. Do not believe it is |
| Tx:11.34 | is will you gain control over it. For you do have control over your | mind since the mind is the mechanism of decision. If you will |
| Tx:11.34 | control over it. For you do have control over your mind since the | mind is the mechanism of decision. If you will recognize that all |
| Tx:11.34 | you will recognize that all attack which you perceive is in your own | mind and nowhere else, you will at last have placed its source, and |
| Tx:11.37 | to find. The search is inevitable because the ego is part of your | mind, and because of its source, the ego is not wholly split off, or |
| Tx:11.37 | wholly split off, or it could not be believed at all. For it is your | mind that believes in it and gives existence to it. Yet it is also |
| Tx:11.37 | that believes in it and gives existence to it. Yet it is also your | mind that has the power to deny the ego's existence, and you will |
| Tx:11.43 | they see no need to do so. Before the idea of attack can enter your | mind, you must have perceived yourself as weak. Because you had |
| Tx:11.46 | you have attacked it. You cannot learn of perfect love with a split | mind because a split mind has made itself a poor learner. You tried |
| Tx:11.46 | You cannot learn of perfect love with a split mind because a split | mind has made itself a poor learner. You tried to make the separation |
| Tx:11.50 | This kind of “learning” has so weakened your | mind that you cannot love, for the curriculum you have chosen is |
| Tx:11.60 | light streams into it, and the Spirit of God's Son shines in the | Mind of the Father and becomes one with it. Very gently does God |
| Tx:11.65 | so will you see in. Two ways of looking at the world are in your | mind, and your perception will reflect the guidance you chose. |
| Tx:11.66 | For you will think they are the same because you want them both. The | mind always strives for integration, and if it is split and wants to |
| Tx:11.67 | it is not up to you whether to project, for projection is a law of | mind. Perception is projection, and you look in before you look out. |
| Tx:11.68 | separated from each other because you made them different. The | mind then sees a divided world outside itself but not within. This |
| Tx:11.71 | saw. Yet you could not have seen reality, for the reality of your | mind is the loveliest of God's creations. Coming only from God, its |
| Tx:11.71 | looked upon me and all your brothers in the perfect safety of the | mind which created us. For we are there in the peace of the Father, |
| Tx:11.74 | you are deserving of life. The death penalty never leaves the ego's | mind, for that is what it always reserves for you in the end. Wanting |
| Tx:11.78 | sight into his Father. He did not change, but you did. For a split | mind and all its works were not created by the Father and could not |
| Tx:11.81 | and you will remember. Yet the memory of God cannot shine in a | mind which has made it invisible and wants to keep it so. For the |
| Tx:11.81 | and wants to keep it so. For the memory of God can dawn only in a | mind that wills to remember and that has relinquished the insane |
| Tx:11.85 | for condemnation is the root of attack. It is the judgment of one | mind by another as unworthy of love and deserving of punishment. But |
| Tx:11.85 | love and deserving of punishment. But herein lies the split. For the | mind that judges perceives itself as separate from the mind being |
| Tx:11.85 | For the mind that judges perceives itself as separate from the | mind being judged, believing that by punishing another, it will |
| Tx:11.85 | escape punishment. All this is but the delusional attempt of the | mind to deny itself and escape the penalty of denial. It is not an |
| Tx:11.86 | The acceptance of guilt into the | Mind of God's Son was the beginning of the separation, as the |
| Tx:11.89 | the Father's love for His Son, He wills to remove all guilt from his | mind that he may remember his Father in peace. For peace and guilt |
| Tx:11.93 | and the brightness of his purity shines untouched forever in God's | Mind. God's Son will always be as he was created. Deny your world and |
| Tx:11.93 | world and judge him not, for his eternal guiltlessness is in the | mind of his Father, and protects him forever. |
| Tx:11.95 | of God's Son shine away the cloud of guilt that darkens your | mind, and by accepting his purity as yours, learn of him that it is |
| Tx:12.1 | ego possibly induce you to project guilt and thereby keep it in your | mind. |
| Tx:12.16 | beneath them and concealed as long as they are hidden is the loving | mind that thought it made them in anger. And the pain in this mind is |
| Tx:12.16 | loving mind that thought it made them in anger. And the pain in this | mind is so apparent when it is uncovered that its need of healing |
| Tx:12.19 | no one from your love, or you will be hiding a dark place in your | mind where the Holy Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt |
| Tx:12.21 | wish to remain in peace, he could not remain at all. For a darkened | mind cannot live in the light, and it must seek a place of darkness |
| Tx:12.25 | been as selective in your questioning as in your perception. An open | mind is more honest than this. |
| Tx:12.34 | For these figures have no witnesses, being perceived in one separate | mind only. |
| Tx:12.35 | what you attack is not in others. Its only reality is in your own | mind, and by attacking others, you are literally attacking what is |
| Tx:12.38 | you overlook reality completely, and you see only your own split | mind everywhere you look. God calls you and you do not hear, for you |
| Tx:12.63 | for whenever judgment enters, reality has slipped away. The out of | mind is out of sight because what is denied is there but is not |
| Tx:12.71 | for He will ensure it never can become a dark spot, hidden in your | mind and kept to hurt you. Under His guidance, you will travel light |
| Tx:12.74 | that He will lead you safely through all dangers to your peace of | mind that this world sets before you. Kneel not before the altars to |
| Tx:12.75 | your brothers can you need? We will restore to you the peace of | mind that we must find together. The Holy Spirit will teach you to |
| Tx:12.76 | me through His Spirit. The sound of it will banish sorrow from the | Mind of God's most holy Son, where it cannot abide. Healing in time |
| Tx:13.1 | indeed be impossible to be in the world with this knowledge. For the | mind that knows this unequivocally knows also that it dwells in |
| Tx:13.2 | no aspect is separate. You are an aspect of knowledge, being in the | Mind of God, Who knows you. All knowledge must be yours, for in you |
| Tx:13.4 | Spirit has no function. He is not separate from either, being in the | mind of both and knowing that mind is one. He is a Thought of God, |
| Tx:13.4 | not separate from either, being in the mind of both and knowing that | mind is one. He is a Thought of God, and God has given Him to you |
| Tx:13.14 | You could as easily have freed him from the past and lifted from his | mind the cloud of guilt that binds him to it. And in his freedom |
| Tx:13.16 | for it is there until it is undone. Guilt is always in your own | mind, which has condemned itself. Project it not, for while you do, |
| Tx:13.20 | You are accustomed to the notion that the | mind can see the source of pain where it is not. The doubtful service |
| Tx:13.24 | even less, will be enough to free you from the past and give your | mind in peace over to the Atonement. When everyone is welcome to you |
| Tx:13.26 | The Holy Spirit does not keep illusions in your | mind to frighten you and show them to you fearfully to demonstrate |
| Tx:13.29 | you were. Your guilt is without reason, because it is not in the | Mind of God where you are. And this is reason, which the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.35 | this, he must escape, for such a war would surely end his peace of | mind and so destroy him. Yet if he could but realize the war is |
| Tx:13.39 | in which He has established you, because He does not change His | Mind. He is invariable as the peace in which you dwell and of which |
| Tx:13.43 | suffices. Learn that even the darkest nightmare that disturbed the | Mind of God's sleeping Son holds no power over him. He will learn the |
| Tx:13.45 | The Holy Spirit has a very different kind of reconciliation in His | Mind for you, and one which He will effect as surely as the ego will |
| Tx:13.51 | system which you made would be forever dark. The thoughts which the | Mind of God's Son projects have all the power that he gives to them. |
| Tx:13.55 | “treasure” that you sought. Yet you will add another burden to your | mind, already burdened or you would not have sought another. You will |
| Tx:13.72 | be. Do not attest to it, and do not foster belief in it in any | mind. Remember always that mind is one and cause is one. You will |
| Tx:13.72 | it, and do not foster belief in it in any mind. Remember always that | mind is one and cause is one. You will learn communication with this |
| Tx:13.76 | against it, for being of Him, it must be true. Peace abides in every | mind that quietly accepts the plan which God has set for his |
| Tx:13.77 | everything that would obscure your innocence from your unclouded | mind. |
| Tx:13.79 | quite impossible that He could ever let His Son drop from His loving | mind wherein he was created and where his abode was fixed in perfect |
| Tx:13.87 | in which what is not there has been removed from the disordered | mind that thought it was. This state, and only this, must you attain |
| Tx:13.88 | When you have let all that obscured the truth in your most holy | mind be undone for you and stand in grace before your Father, He will |
| Tx:13.88 | learn how to forgive and restore what always was to your unforgiving | mind. Atonement becomes real and visible to them that use it. On |
| Tx:13.89 | guilt arises from your failure to fulfill your function in God's | Mind with all of yours. Can you escape this guilt by failing to |
| Tx:14.1 | complete that knowledge is swept away from recognition in the very | mind where God Himself has placed it. If you would but listen and |
| Tx:14.3 | was established as the means of restoring guiltlessness to the | mind which has denied it and thus denied Heaven to itself. Atonement |
| Tx:14.4 | he sees himself. God can communicate only to the Holy Spirit in your | mind because only He shares the knowledge of what you are with God. |
| Tx:14.4 | knows what God is. Everything else that you have placed within your | mind cannot exist, for what is not in communication with the Mind of |
| Tx:14.4 | your mind cannot exist, for what is not in communication with the | Mind of God has never been. Communication with God is life. Nothing |
| Tx:14.5 | The only part of your | mind that has reality is the part which links you still with God. |
| Tx:14.7 | you. Who can condemn whom God has blessed? There is nothing in the | Mind of God that does not share His shining innocence. Creation is |
| Tx:14.20 | knows you are not separate from God, but He perceives much in your | mind that lets you think you are. All this, and nothing else, would |
| Tx:14.24 | together and not kept apart. For their separation is only in your | mind, and they are reconciled by union, as you are. In union, |
| Tx:14.28 | other is seen in the same place. Light cannot enter darkness when a | mind believes in darkness and will not let it go. Truth does not |
| Tx:14.31 | which the Holy Spirit offers you will bring this oneness to your | mind with clarity and brightness so intense you could not wish for |
| Tx:14.32 | of the power of God that shines in you. Banish not power from your | mind, but let all that would hide your glory be brought to the |
| Tx:14.44 | to all the world, you could not wait to make the mirror of your | mind clean to receive the image of the holiness that heals the world. |
| Tx:14.44 | that heals the world. The image of holiness which shines in your | mind is not obscure and will not change. Its meaning to those who |
| Tx:14.49 | than others. And this is true about the thoughts which cross the | mind of those who think they live apart. For some are reflections of |
| Tx:14.49 | and is never still. It shifts unceasingly across the mirror of your | mind, and the reflections of Heaven last but a moment and grow dim as |
| Tx:14.53 | You who believe you understand something of the dynamics of the | mind, let me assure you that you know nothing of it at all. For of |
| Tx:14.53 | could not know of it. The study of the ego is not the study of the | mind. In fact, the ego enjoys the study of itself and thoroughly |
| Tx:14.56 | to you and teach you both his love and need for love. Neither his | mind nor yours holds more than these two orders of thought. |
| Tx:14.69 | teach yourselves He has corrected already. They do not exist in His | Mind at all. For the past binds Him not and therefore binds not you. |
| Tx:14.70 | of you. He would establish His bright teaching so firmly in your | mind that no dark lessons of guilt can abide in what He has |
| Tx:14.73 | this that you need do. The Holy Spirit will, of Himself, fill every | mind that so makes room for Him. |
| Tx:15.12 | dispirited by the thought of how long it would take to change your | mind so completely, ask yourself, “How long is an instant?” Could you |
| Tx:15.37 | the value of His Will for you in your own minds. And yet it is your | mind that is the host to Him. |
| Tx:15.39 | holy instant yours at once, for the release from littleness in the | mind of the host of God depends on willingness and not on time. The |
| Tx:15.40 | communication. This means, however, that it is a time in which your | mind is open, both to receive and give. It is the recognition that |
| Tx:15.42 | you are not ready to share it with Him. And it cannot come into a | mind that has decided to oppose it. For the holy instant is given and |
| Tx:15.55 | is only one. For the holy instant reaches to eternity and to the | Mind of God. And it is only there love has meaning, and only there |
| Tx:15.60 | you recognize the idea of love in you and unite this idea with the | mind that thought it and could not relinquish it. By holding it |
| Tx:15.60 | thus becomes a lesson in how to hold all of your brothers in your | mind, experiencing not loss, but completion. From this it follows you |
| Tx:15.63 | love's meaning understood. But remember that understanding is of the | mind and only of the mind. Knowledge is therefore of the mind, and |
| Tx:15.63 | But remember that understanding is of the mind and only of the | mind. Knowledge is therefore of the mind, and its conditions are in |

| Tx:15.63 | Knowledge is therefore of the mind, and its conditions are in the | mind with it. If you were not only an idea and nothing else, you |
| Tx:15.67 | at this, for ugliness such as this belongs not in your holy | mind. The host of God can have no real investment here. |
| Tx:15.69 | and it is this chain the Holy Spirit would remove from his holy | mind. For the chain of savagery belongs not around the chosen host of |
| Tx:15.72 | closeness that the ego demands, and it does not object where the | mind goes or what it thinks, for this seems unimportant. As long as |
| Tx:15.72 | is there to receive its sacrifice, it is content. To the ego, the | mind is private, and only the body can be shared. Ideas are basically |
| Tx:15.75 | keep minds apart. For bodies cannot forgive. They can only do as the | mind directs. |
| Tx:15.107 | is to sacrifice nothing, and communication, which must be of the | mind, cannot be sacrificed. Where, then, is sacrifice? |
| Tx:16.3 | aside and let the healing be done for you. Keep but one thought in | mind and do not lose sight of it, however tempted you may be to judge |
| Tx:16.3 | situation and to determine your response by judging it. Focus your | mind only on this: |
| Tx:16.13 | them alone. You have succeeded whenever you have reached another | mind and joined with it. When two minds join as one and share one |
| Tx:16.25 | to God are also host to them. For nothing real has ever left the | mind of its creator. And what is not real was never there. |
| Tx:16.39 | compatible with His. Every illusion which you accept into your | mind by judging it to be attainable removes your own sense of |
| Tx:16.54 | angry. He merely could not let this happen. You cannot change His | Mind. |
| Tx:16.76 | for a while and will prevent you from keeping the experience in your | mind. Yet the holy instant is eternal, and your illusions of time |
| Tx:17.1 | purpose. They cannot do so in reality, but they can do so in the | mind that would have reality different. |
| Tx:17.6 | forget not this: When you become disturbed and lose your peace of | mind because another is attempting to solve his problems through |
| Tx:17.11 | of perception will undertake with you the careful searching of the | mind that made this world and uncover to you the seeming reasons for |
| Tx:17.12 | in peace. Even salvation will become a dream and vanish from his | mind. For salvation is the end of dreams and with the closing of the |
| Tx:17.23 | it is not and as it is not. Give the past to Him Who can change your | mind about it for you. But first be sure you fully realize what you |
| Tx:17.31 | The ego is hyperalert to threat, and the part of your | mind into which the ego was accepted is very anxious to preserve its |
| Tx:17.47 | Only a radical shift in purpose could induce a complete change of | mind about what the whole relationship is for. As this change |
| Tx:18.18 | not doubt that it is real. Yet here is a world, clearly within your | mind, that seems to be outside. You do not respond to it as though |
| Tx:18.21 | mine through His! For we are joined as in one purpose, being of one | mind with Him. |
| Tx:18.23 | sleeping and your waking dreams represent the same wishes in your | mind, so do the real world and the truth of Heaven join in the Will |
| Tx:18.31 | in Heaven but goes with you. Not one ray that shines forever in the | Mind of God but shines on you. Heaven is joined with you in your |
| Tx:18.42 | instant after you have tried to remove all fear and hatred from your | mind. That is its function. Never attempt to overlook your guilt |
| Tx:18.43 | Yet it is possible because God wills it. Nor will He change His | Mind about it. The means and purpose both belong to Him. You have |
| Tx:18.51 | Minds are joined; bodies are not. Only by assigning to the | mind the properties of the body does separation seem to be possible. |
| Tx:18.51 | of the body does separation seem to be possible. And it is | mind that seems to be fragmented and private and alone. Its guilt, |
| Tx:18.51 | and dies because it is attacked, to hold the separation in the | mind and let it not know its identity. Mind cannot attack, but it can |
| Tx:18.51 | to hold the separation in the mind and let it not know its identity. | Mind cannot attack, but it can make fantasies and direct the body to |
| Tx:18.51 | Yet it is never what the body does that seems to satisfy. Unless the | mind believes the body is actually acting out its fantasies, it will |
| Tx:18.52 | In this, the | mind is clearly delusional. It cannot attack, but it maintains it can |
| Tx:18.52 | it can and uses what it does to hurt the body to prove it can. The | mind cannot attack, but it can deceive itself. And this is all it |
| Tx:18.56 | on the universal communication which is an eternal property of | mind. But the communication is internal. [It is not made up of |
| Tx:18.56 | [It is not made up of different parts which reach each other.] | Mind reaches to itself. It does not go out. Within itself it has no |
| Tx:18.59 | the body and a joining of yourself and something else in which your | mind enlarges to encompass it. It becomes part of you as you unite |
| Tx:18.59 | yourself be one with something beyond it simply by not letting your | mind be limited by it. |
| Tx:18.62 | are the laws of limit lifted for you, to welcome you to openness of | mind and freedom. Come to this place of refuge, where you can be |
| Tx:18.67 | against the giving in to sin; when the light comes at last into the | mind given to contemplation; or when the goal is finally achieved by |
| Tx:18.69 | you need do nothing, you have withdrawn the body's value from your | mind. Here is the quick and open door through which you slip past |
| Tx:18.69 | you forget and the body's activities return to occupy your conscious | mind. |
| Tx:18.73 | dust, it bids you fight against the universe. This fragment of your | mind is such a tiny part of it that, could you but appreciate the |
| Tx:18.75 | inhabited by bodies seem to be. Each body seems to house a separate | mind, a disconnected thought living alone and in no way joined to the |
| Tx:18.86 | bodies, made by insanity, insane messages seem to be returned to the | mind which made it. And these messages bear witness to this world, |
| Tx:19.2 | The body is healed because you came without it and joined the | mind in which all healing rests. |
| Tx:19.3 | needs no healing. Its health or sickness depends entirely on how the | mind perceives it and the purpose which the mind would use it for. |
| Tx:19.3 | entirely on how the mind perceives it and the purpose which the | mind would use it for. And it is obvious that a segment of the mind |
| Tx:19.3 | the mind would use it for. And it is obvious that a segment of the | mind can see itself as separated from the Universal Purpose. When |
| Tx:19.6 | attack, while the other part would heal and therefore calls upon the | mind and not the body. The inevitable compromise is the belief that |
| Tx:19.6 | compromise is the belief that the body must be healed, and not the | mind. For this divided goal has given both an equal reality, which |
| Tx:19.6 | has given both an equal reality, which could be possible only if the | mind is limited to the body and divided into little parts of seeming |
| Tx:19.6 | harm the body, but it will keep the delusional thought system in the | mind. |
| Tx:19.7 | seen together, all attempts to keep both truth and illusion in the | mind, where both must be, are recognized as dedication to illusion |
| Tx:19.9 | If you but understood how much this strange concealment has hurt your | mind and how confused your own identification has become because of |
| Tx:19.13 | and in Whom you are united. Grace is not given to a body, but to a | mind. And the mind that receives it looks instantly beyond the body |
| Tx:19.13 | you are united. Grace is not given to a body, but to a mind. And the | mind that receives it looks instantly beyond the body and sees the |
| Tx:19.16 | of being kept in prison or limited in any way except by the | mind that thought it. For it remains joined to its source, which is |
| Tx:19.17 | the firm conviction that minds, not bodies, can attack. And thus the | mind is guilty and will forever so remain unless a mind not part of |
| Tx:19.17 | And thus the mind is guilty and will forever so remain unless a | mind not part of it can give it absolution. Sin calls for punishment |
| Tx:19.19 | mistaken; he can deceive himself; he can even turn the power of his | mind against himself. But he cannot sin. There is nothing he can do |
| Tx:19.23 | For he has somehow managed to corrupt his Father and changed His | Mind completely. Mourn, then, the death of God, Whom sin has killed! |
| Tx:19.25 | is denied the acting out, but while the guilt remains attractive the | mind will suffer and not let go of the idea of sin. For guilt still |
| Tx:19.25 | not let go of the idea of sin. For guilt still calls to it, and the | mind hears it and yearns for it, making itself a willing captive to |
| Tx:19.25 | thinks you are, you will always want it. And only an avenger with a | mind unlike your own could stamp it out through fear. |
| Tx:19.29 | is but an error in perception which can be easily corrected in the | mind, although the body's eyes will see no change. The eyes see many |
| Tx:19.29 | the body's eyes will see no change. The eyes see many things the | mind corrects, and you respond, not to the eyes' illusions, but to |
| Tx:19.30 | aspects of the spiral, the line looks different. Yet in your | mind is One Who knows it is unbroken and forever changeless. This One |
| Tx:19.30 | you believe in sin. In error, yes; for this can be corrected by the | mind. But sin is the belief that your perception is unchangeable and |
| Tx:19.30 | sin is the belief that your perception is unchangeable and that the | mind must accept as true what it is told through it. If it does not |
| Tx:19.30 | accept as true what it is told through it. If it does not obey, the | mind is judged insane. The only power which could change perception |
| Tx:19.32 | and believe that sin is precious. For the belief that bodies limit | mind leads to a perception of the world in which the proof of |
| Tx:19.34 | your sight. You will not see it long. For in the new perception, the | mind corrects it when it seems to be seen, and it becomes invisible. |
| Tx:19.61 | Holy Spirit's messengers are sent far beyond the body, calling the | mind to join in holy communion and be at peace. Such is the message |
| Tx:19.69 | is the means for reaching the goal that you assign to it. [Only the | mind can set a purpose, and only mind can see the means for its |
| Tx:19.69 | that you assign to it. [Only the mind can set a purpose, and only | mind can see the means for its accomplishment and justify its use.] |
| Tx:19.69 | and justify its use.] Peace and guilt are both conditions of the | mind to be attained. And these conditions are the home of the emotion |
| Tx:19.82 | Him not and therefore brings the Creator to the awareness of every | mind which heard His Answer and accepted it. |
| Tx:19.90 | beyond them would you remember. And as this memory rises in your | mind, peace must still surmount a final obstacle after which is |
| Tx:19.105 | and remove all trace of guilt from his disturbed and tortured | mind. Help him to lift the heavy burden of sin you laid upon him and |
| Tx:20.6 | For bodies can neither offer nor accept; hold out nor take. Only the | mind can value, and only the mind decides on what it would receive |
| Tx:20.6 | nor accept; hold out nor take. Only the mind can value, and only the | mind decides on what it would receive and give. And every gift it |
| Tx:20.55 | outward. This produces what seems to be a wall of flesh around the | mind, keeping it prisoner in a tiny spot of space and time, beholden |
| Tx:21.1 | to you it is important. It is the witness to your state of | mind, the outside picture of an inward condition. As a man thinketh, |
| Tx:21.1 | Therefore, seek not to change the world, but will to change your | mind about the world. Perception is a result, not a cause. And that |
| Tx:21.13 | the very little on which salvation rests; the tiny change of | mind by which the crucifixion is changed to resurrection. And being |
| Tx:21.30 | it, for nothing is so cherished and protected as is a goal the | mind accepts. This it will follow, grimly or happily, but always with |
| Tx:21.38 | it. For sacrifice must be exacted of a body and by another body. The | mind could neither ask it nor receive it of itself. And no more could |
| Tx:21.38 | it of itself. And no more could the body. The intention is in the | mind, which tries to use the body to carry out the means for sin in |
| Tx:21.38 | tries to use the body to carry out the means for sin in which the | mind believes. Thus is the joining of mind and body an inescapable |
| Tx:21.38 | the means for sin in which the mind believes. Thus is the joining of | mind and body an inescapable belief of those who value sin. And so is |
| Tx:21.40 | it belongs beyond. You gave perception and belief and faith from | mind to body. Let them now be given back to what produced them and |
| Tx:21.44 | not hear. The Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted by the part of your | mind the ego knows not of. No more did you. And yet this part with |
| Tx:21.49 | and makes the world you see. It literally picks it out as the | mind directs. The laws of size and shape and brightness would hold, |
| Tx:21.51 | this. And thus It recognizes that miracles do not affect another's | mind, only Its own. [They always change your mind.] There is no other. |
| Tx:21.51 | do not affect another's mind, only Its own. [They always change your | mind.] There is no other. |
| Tx:21.52 | to stay in it is capable of reason. How can the segment of the | mind devoid of reason understand what reason is or grasp the |
| Tx:21.56 | and belief are strong in madness, guiding perception toward what the | mind has valued. But reason enters not at all in this. For the |
| Tx:21.57 | The part of | mind where reason lies was dedicated by your will in union with your |
| Tx:21.61 | His Son. Only were both in bodies could this be. Nor could one | mind think only for itself unless the body were the mind. For only |
| Tx:21.61 | Nor could one mind think only for itself unless the body were the | mind. For only bodies can be separate and therefore unreal. The home |
| Tx:21.62 | Madness is an attack on reason that drives it out of | mind and takes its place. Reason does not attack but takes the place |
| Tx:21.65 | himself. And reason tells you it is given you to change his whole | mind, which is one with you, in just an instant. And any instant |
| Tx:21.81 | You can desire a world you rule which rules you not, and change your | mind. You can desire to exchange your helplessness for power, and |
| Tx:21.82 | the rest. For only then have you renounced the option to change your | mind again. When it is this you do not want, the rest are wholly |
| Tx:21.84 | has the power to release or kill. And none can leave the thinker's | mind or leave him unaffected. |
| Tx:22.24 | It is the meaningless idea that thoughts can leave the thinker's | mind, be different from it, and in opposition to it. If this were |
| Tx:22.24 | Only if it were possible the Son of God could leave his Father's | Mind, make himself different, and oppose His Will, would it be |
| Tx:22.31 | in itself, but it makes way for peace and brings you to a state of | mind in which salvation can be given you. Sin is a block, set like a |
| Tx:22.37 | reason sees a holy relationship as what it is—a common state of | mind, where both give errors gladly to correction that both may |
| Tx:22.51 | Do you want freedom of the body or of the | mind? For both you cannot have. Which do you value? Which is your |
| Tx:22.51 | he believes it is and can be found. He will believe it possible of | mind or body, and he will make the other serve his choice as means to |
| Tx:22.52 | Where freedom of the body has been chosen, the | mind is used as means whose value lies in its ability to contrive |
| Tx:22.52 | body's freedom. Yet freedom of the body has no meaning, and so the | mind is dedicated to serve illusions. This is a situation so |
| Tx:23.7 | The memory of God comes to the quiet | mind. It cannot come where there is conflict, for a mind at war |
| Tx:23.7 | to the quiet mind. It cannot come where there is conflict, for a | mind at war against itself remembers not eternal gentleness. The |
| Tx:23.14 | turn in peace to the remembrance of God, still shining in your quiet | mind. |
| Tx:23.52 | When the temptation to attack rises to make your | mind darkened and murderous, remember you can see the battle from |
| Tx:23.53 | them. Only a purpose unifies, and those who share a purpose have a | mind as one. The body has no purpose and must be solitary. From |
| Tx:24.1 | and the keeping of the state of peace. Given this state the | mind is quiet, and the condition in which God is remembered is |
| Tx:24.2 | come from your beliefs as certainly as all creation rose in His | Mind because of what He knows. |
| Tx:24.17 | God—so like his Father that the memory of Him springs instantly to | mind. And with this memory, the Son remembers his own creations, as |
| Tx:24.17 | the sins he held in its defense against himself will vanish as his | mind accepts the truth about himself as it returns to take their |
| Tx:24.19 | it. Let him forgive you all your specialness and make you whole in | mind and one with him. He waits for your forgiveness only that he may |
| Tx:24.30 | powerless to make attack upon illusions. They are not bodies; as One | mind they wait for all illusions to be brought to them and left |
| Tx:24.35 | separation is its curse. Yet bodies have no goal. Purpose is of the | mind. And minds can change as they desire. What they are and all |
| Tx:24.36 | and not attack, it is quite obvious. The purpose of attack is in the | mind, and its effects are felt but where it is. Nor is mind limited; |
| Tx:24.36 | is in the mind, and its effects are felt but where it is. Nor is | mind limited; so must it be that harmful purpose hurts the mind as |
| Tx:24.36 | Nor is mind limited; so must it be that harmful purpose hurts the | mind as one. Nothing could make less sense to specialness. Nothing |
| Tx:24.51 | lay before you lovingly as yours forever. And no thought within His | Mind is absent from your own. It is His Will you share His love for |
| Tx:24.51 | the world began and as He knows you still. God changes not His | Mind about His Son with passing circumstance, which has no meaning in |
| Tx:24.65 | Ask yourself this: can you protect the | mind? The body, yes, a little—not from time, but temporarily. And |
| Tx:24.69 | do we deal with them as if they were. It is essential it be kept in | mind that all perception still is upside down until its purpose has |
| Tx:25.3 | The body needs no healing. But the | mind that thinks it is a body is sick indeed! And it is here that |
| Tx:25.4 | you learn the body merely seems to be the means to do it. For the | mind is His. And so it must be yours. His holiness directs the body |
| Tx:25.4 | And so it must be yours. His holiness directs the body through the | mind at one with Him. And you are manifest unto your holy brother, as |
| Tx:25.6 | the world you want to live in and the state in which you think your | mind will be content and satisfied. It chooses where you think your |
| Tx:25.6 | nor gives the slightest witness unto anything the purpose in your | mind upholdeth not. Perception is a part of what it is your purpose |
| Tx:25.9 | The Holy Spirit serves Christ's purpose in your | mind, so that the aim of specialness can be corrected where the error |
| Tx:25.9 | the Will of God and what you really will. But this is understood by | mind perceived as one, aware that it is one and so experienced. It is |
| Tx:25.10 | of a oneness joined as one is meaningless. It is apparent that a | mind so split could never be the teacher of a Oneness which unites |
| Tx:25.10 | which unites all things within itself. And so What is within this | mind and does unite all things together must be its Teacher. Yet must |
| Tx:25.10 | must be its Teacher. Yet must It use the language which this | mind can understand in the condition in which it thinks it is. And It |
| Tx:25.15 | Its past has failed. Be glad that it is gone within your | mind to darken what is there. Take not the form for content, for the |
| Tx:25.18 | will see the masterpiece. Look at its loveliness, and understand the | Mind that thought it, not in flesh and bones, but in a frame as |
| Tx:25.19 | the savior from the dark and understand your brother as his Father's | Mind shows him to you. He will step forth from darkness as you look |
| Tx:25.24 | rules, for such a world could not have been created by the | Mind to which perception has no meaning. Yet are His laws reflected |
| Tx:25.27 | beyond the pitiful attempts of specialness to put it out of | mind where it must be and light the body up instead of it. The lamps |
| Tx:25.52 | And nothing that the world believes as true has any meaning in His | Mind at all. What makes no sense and has no meaning is insanity. And |
| Tx:25.53 | agreement of their thought that makes the Son a co-creator with the | mind Whose Thought created him. And if he chooses to believe one |
| Tx:25.64 | Have little faith that wisdom could be found in such a state of | mind. But be you thankful that only little faith is asked of you. |
| Tx:25.67 | Vengeance is alien to God's | Mind because He knows of justice. To be just is to be fair and not be |
| Tx:25.67 | It is impossible for you to share the Holy Spirit's justice with a | mind that can conceive of specialness at all. Yet how could He be |
| Tx:26.28 | he fear[s,] he loves the most. What but a miracle could change his | mind, so that he understands that love cannot be feared? What other |
| Tx:26.32 | would replace has been replaced. Time lasted but an instant in your | mind, with no effect upon eternity. And so is all time passed and |
| Tx:26.33 | gave way to truth. Not one illusion still remains unanswered in your | mind. Uncertainty was brought to certainty so long ago that it is |
| Tx:26.39 | he be kept in chains long since removed and gone forever from his | mind? |
| Tx:26.49 | and their effects but seem to be apart from them. Ideas are of the | mind. What is projected out and seems to be external to the mind is |
| Tx:26.49 | of the mind. What is projected out and seems to be external to the | mind is not outside at all but an effect of what is in and has not |
| Tx:26.52 | world apart, and relegates attack unto Himself. Thus has He lost His | Mind, proclaiming sin has taken His reality from Him, and brought His |
| Tx:26.59 | Sin is belief attack can be projected outside the | mind where the belief arose. Here is the firm conviction that ideas |
| Tx:26.60 | leave not their source. Such is creation's law—that each idea the | mind conceives but adds to its abundance, never takes away. This is |
| Tx:26.60 | as true of what is idly wished as what is truly willed, because the | mind can wish to be deceived but cannot make it be what it is not. |
| Tx:26.75 | illusion has a cause which, though untrue, must be already in your | mind. And this illusion is but one effect which it engenders and one |
| Tx:27.10 | For now it witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being open and the | mind made free again to choose what it is for. Now is it not |
| Tx:27.16 | salvation to your brother and yourself. A broken body shows the | mind has not been healed. A miracle of healing proves that separation |
| Tx:27.17 | to him than it has given unto you. So does your healing show your | mind is healed and has forgiven what he did not do. And so is he |
| Tx:27.23 | [In a split | mind, identity must seem to be divided. Nor can anyone perceive a |
| Tx:27.23 | which has conflicting purposes and different ends. Correction, to a | mind so split, must be a way to punish sins you think are yours in |
| Tx:27.24 | is the same as pardon, then you also know the Holy Spirit's | mind and yours are one. And so your own Identity is found. Yet must |
| Tx:27.24 | He work with what is given Him, and you allow Him only half your | mind. And thus He represents the other half and seems to have a |
| Tx:27.28 | One Who knows correction and forgiveness are the same. With half a | mind, this is not understood. Leave then correction to the mind that |
| Tx:27.28 | half a mind, this is not understood. Leave then correction to the | mind that is united, functioning as one because It is not split in |
| Tx:27.28 | In His acceptance of this function lies the means whereby your | mind is unified. His single purpose unifies the halves of you which |
| Tx:27.37 | can be answered now. Yet it must also be that in your state of | mind solution is impossible. Therefore, God must have given you a way |
| Tx:27.37 | God must have given you a way of reaching to another state of | mind in which the answer is already there. Such is the holy instant. |
| Tx:27.42 | the answer to itself. The holy instant is the interval in which the | mind is still enough to hear an answer which is not entailed within |
| Tx:27.45 | heal. This does not mean the conflict must be gone forever from your | mind. For if it were, there'd be no need for healing then. But it |
| Tx:27.46 | From there each one is born into this world as witness to a state of | mind which has transcended conflict and has reached to peace. It |
| Tx:27.63 | is absurd when clearly seen. No one has difficulty making up his | mind to let a simple problem be resolved if it is seen as hurting him |
| Tx:27.68 | quite apart from him, and what he sees is separate from his | mind. He cannot doubt his dreams' reality because he does not see the |
| Tx:27.69 | he stands, a victim to a dream conceived and cherished by a separate | mind. Careless indeed of him this mind must be, as thoughtless of his |
| Tx:27.69 | and cherished by a separate mind. Careless indeed of him this | mind must be, as thoughtless of his peace and happiness as is the |
| Tx:27.70 | is what you choose if you deny the cause of suffering is in your | mind. Be glad indeed it is, for thus are you the one decider of your |
| Tx:27.73 | unless a gentler dream preceded his awaking and allowed his calmer | mind to welcome, not to fear, the Voice that calls with love to waken |
| Tx:27.83 | of God which can attack itself; a separate brother as an enemy; a | mind within a body, all are forms of circularity whose ending starts |
| Tx:28.1 | was over long ago. The thoughts that made it are no longer in the | mind that thought of them and loved them for a little while. The |
| Tx:28.7 | you were badly taught. And who would keep a senseless lesson in his | mind when he can learn and can preserve a better one? When ancient |
| Tx:28.8 | there never was a time in which He did not keep It safely in your | mind. Its consequences will indeed seem new because you thought that |
| Tx:28.8 | you remembered not their Cause. Yet was It never absent from your | mind, for it was not your Father's Will that He be unremembered by |
| Tx:28.11 | The miracle comes quietly into the | mind that stops an instant and is still. It reaches gently from that |
| Tx:28.11 | and is still. It reaches gently from that quiet time, and from the | mind it healed in quiet then, to other minds to share its quietness. |
| Tx:28.11 | join in doing nothing to prevent its radiant extension back into the | mind Which caused all minds to be. Born out of sharing, there can be |
| Tx:28.13 | How instantly the memory of God arises in the | mind that has no fear to keep the memory away. Its own remembering |
| Tx:28.17 | limitless as is itself. Yet must all healing come about because the | mind is recognized as not within the body, and its innocence is quite |
| Tx:28.18 | recognition, causelessness is given no effects and none are seen. A | mind within a body and a world of other bodies, each with separate |
| Tx:28.18 | each with separate minds, are your “creations,” you the “other” | mind, creating with effects unlike yourself. And as their “father,” |
| Tx:28.26 | no cause. Thus is the body healed by miracles because they show the | mind made sickness and employed the body to be victim or effect of |
| Tx:28.26 | for this is not the lesson it was sent to teach. The lesson is the | mind was sick that thought the body could be sick; projecting out its |
| Tx:28.27 | of sickness to its cause. The body is released because the | mind acknowledges “this is not done to me, but I am doing this.” And |
| Tx:28.27 | “this is not done to me, but I am doing this.” And thus the | mind is free to make another choice instead. Beginning here, |
| Tx:28.29 | No | mind is sick until another mind agrees that they are separate. And |
| Tx:28.29 | No mind is sick until another | mind agrees that they are separate. And thus it is their joint |
| Tx:28.29 | and accept the part you play in making sickness real, the other | mind cannot project its guilt without your aid in letting it perceive |
| Tx:28.29 | your minds, from separate points of view. Uniting with a brother's | mind prevents the cause of sickness and perceived effects. Healing is |
| Tx:28.38 | [with] one but let the other go. The dream is but illusion in the | mind. And with the mind you would unite, but never with the dream. It |
| Tx:28.38 | the other go. The dream is but illusion in the mind. And with the | mind you would unite, but never with the dream. It is the dream you |
| Tx:28.38 | but never with the dream. It is the dream you fear and not the | mind. You see them as the same because you think that you are but a |
| Tx:28.39 | for your identity depends on his reality. Think rather of him as a | mind in which illusions still persist, but as a mind which brother is |
| Tx:28.39 | rather of him as a mind in which illusions still persist, but as a | mind which brother is to you. He is not brother made by what he |
| Tx:28.39 | It is his reality that is your brother, as is yours to him. Your | mind and his are joined in brotherhood. His body and his dreams but |
| Tx:28.43 | accepts his union with him. His desire to be a sick and separated | mind cannot remain without a witness or a cause. And both are gone if |
| Tx:28.47 | Who shares in them can never share in Him. But who withdraws his | mind from sharing them is sharing Him. There is no other choice. |
| Tx:28.56 | you have made of it a symbol for the limitations which you want your | mind to have and see and keep. |
| Tx:28.57 | The body represents the gap between the little bit of | mind you call your own and all the rest of what is really yours. You |
| Tx:28.58 | it can have no effects. Whoever says, “There is no gap between my | mind and yours” has kept God's promise, not his tiny oath to be |
| Tx:28.59 | of it every time he does not share a promise to be sick but lets his | mind be healed and unified. His secret vows are powerless before the |
| Tx:29.5 | you meet and limits your ability to make communion with each other's | mind. And now it tells you where to go and how to go there, what is |
| Tx:29.16 | and with events that seem to alter it. Yet this but means the | mind remains unchanged in its belief of what the purpose of the body |
| Tx:29.23 | forgive your brother, that the darkness may be lifted from your | mind. When light has come to him through your forgiveness, he will |
| Tx:29.40 | you do not have. But you can not remove the power to change your | mind and see another purpose there. Change is the greatest gift God |
| Tx:29.50 | Yet where are dreams but in a | mind asleep? And can a dream succeed in making real the pictures it |
| Tx:29.53 | dangerous, with forces massed against your confidence and peace of | mind. They have the power to supply your lacks and add the value |
| Tx:29.54 | and given form and thus perceived as real and seen outside the | mind. Yet it is still a thought and cannot leave the mind that is its |
| Tx:29.54 | outside the mind. Yet it is still a thought and cannot leave the | mind that is its source. Nor is its form apart from the idea it |
| Tx:29.55 | of death. Its form is nowhere, for its source abides within your | mind, where God abideth not. Where is this place where what is |
| Tx:29.61 | believe that it is not a dream. A dream of judgment came into the | mind that God created perfect as Himself. And in that dream was |
| Tx:29.67 | for something else nor interposed between the thoughts the | mind conceives and what it sees. No one is used for something he is |
| Tx:29.68 | dreams have little need to last. They are not made to separate the | mind from what it thinks. They do not seek to prove the dream is |
| Tx:30.6 | This is your major problem now. You still make up your | mind and then decide to ask what you should do. And what you hear may |
| Tx:30.10 | answer will provoke attack unless you quickly straighten out your | mind to want an answer that will work. Be certain this has happened |
| Tx:30.15 | you cannot even let your question go, you can begin to change your | mind with this: |
| Tx:30.24 | Now you have changed your | mind about the day and have remembered what you really want. Its |
| Tx:30.25 | of lack of opposition to be helped. It is a statement of an open | mind, not certain yet, but willing to be shown: |
| Tx:30.32 | can be a decision. Let this be the one reminder that you keep in | mind, and you will have the day you want and give it to the world by |
| Tx:30.43 | forever, changelessly. For thoughts endure as long as does the | mind that thought of them. And in the Mind of God there is no ending |
| Tx:30.43 | endure as long as does the mind that thought of them. And in the | Mind of God there is no ending nor a time in which His Thoughts were |
| Tx:30.43 | a separate life apart from his. The thoughts you think are in your | mind, as you are in the mind Which thought of you. And so there are |
| Tx:30.43 | from his. The thoughts you think are in your mind, as you are in the | mind Which thought of you. And so there are no separate parts in what |
| Tx:30.43 | you. And so there are no separate parts in what exists within God's | Mind. It is forever one, eternally united and at peace. |
| Tx:30.47 | in its eternal home, the Thought God holds of you has never left the | mind of its Creator Whom it knows, as its Creator knows that it is |
| Tx:30.48 | you there is no eternal sky, no changeless star, and no reality. The | mind of Heaven's Son in Heaven is, for there the mind of Father and |
| Tx:30.48 | and no reality. The mind of Heaven's Son in Heaven is, for there the | mind of Father and Son joined in creation which can have no end. You |
| Tx:30.48 | not, then, that idols must keep hidden what you are, not from the | Mind of God, but from your own. The star shines still; the sky has |
| Tx:30.54 | Appearances can but deceive the | mind that wants to be deceived. And you can make a simple choice that |
| Tx:30.57 | The real world is the state of | mind in which the only purpose of the world is seen to be |
| Tx:30.61 | and perfectly fulfilled. The real world is a state in which the | mind has learned how easily do idols go when they are still |
| Tx:30.61 | go when they are still perceived, but wanted not. How willingly the | mind can let them go when it has understood that idols are nothing |
| Tx:30.73 | of God. But he is saved from this dilemma if he can forgive. The | mind must think of its Creator as it looks upon itself. If you can |
| Tx:31.11 | that you do not want? It is the recognition that it is a state of | mind unwanted that becomes the means whereby the choice is |
| Tx:31.12 | unaware of any thoughts of evil or of good that ever crossed your | mind of anyone. Now do [you] know him not. But you are free to learn |
| Tx:31.28 | nothing of itself at all. If you are sin you are a body, for the | mind acts not. And purpose must be in the body, not the mind. The |
| Tx:31.28 | for the mind acts not. And purpose must be in the body, not the | mind. The body must act on its own and motivate itself. If you are |
| Tx:31.28 | act on its own and motivate itself. If you are sin, you lock the | mind within the body, and you give its purpose to its prison-house, |
| Tx:31.29 | Yet is the body prisoner and not the | mind. The body thinks no thoughts. It has no power to learn, to |
| Tx:31.29 | power to learn, to pardon, nor enslave. It gives no orders that the | mind need serve nor sets conditions that it must obey. It holds in |
| Tx:31.29 | conditions that it must obey. It holds in prison but the willing | mind that would abide in it. It sickens at the bidding of the mind |
| Tx:31.29 | mind that would abide in it. It sickens at the bidding of the | mind that would become its prisoner. And it grows old and dies |
| Tx:31.29 | would become its prisoner. And it grows old and dies because that | mind is sick within itself. Learning is all that causes change. And |
| Tx:31.29 | the body, where no learning can occur, could never change unless the | mind preferred the body change in its appearances to suit the purpose |
| Tx:31.29 | the body change in its appearances to suit the purpose given by the | mind. For it can learn, and there is all change made. |
| Tx:31.30 | The | mind that thinks it is a sin has but one purpose—that the body be |
| Tx:31.32 | see upholds their freedom from imprisonment and death. Open your | mind to change, and there will be no ancient penalty exacted from |
| Tx:31.44 | to be. For it is made to serve two purposes, but one of which the | mind can recognize. The first presents the face of innocence, the |
| Tx:31.50 | help you see this concept of the self must be undone if any peace of | mind is to be given you. Nor can it be unlearned except by lessons |
| Tx:31.54 | law that what you see reflects the state of [the] perceiver's | mind. Yet who was it that did the choosing first? If you are what you |
| Tx:31.56 | escape from concepts. It does not concern itself with content of the | mind, but with the simple statement that it thinks. And what can |
| Tx:31.58 | that the learning of the world is loosening its grasp upon your | mind. And be you sure and happy in the confidence that it will go at |
| Tx:31.58 | and happy in the confidence that it will go at last and leave your | mind at peace. The role of the accuser will appear in many places and |
| Tx:31.59 | will see you know not what you are. It is to this unsealed and open | mind that truth returns, unhindered and unbound. Where concepts of |
| Tx:31.73 | past the hope of change and keep it static and concealed within your | mind. Give it instead to Him Who understands the changes that it |
| Tx:31.73 | that you may offer peace to have it yours. Alternatives are in your | mind to use, and you can see yourself another way. Would you not |
| Tx:31.80 | It sees no past in anyone at all. And thus it serves a wholly open | mind, unclouded by old concepts and prepared to look on only what the |
| W1:I.1 | it is the exercises which will make the goal possible. An untrained | mind can accomplish nothing. It is the purpose of these exercises to |
| W1:I.1 | nothing. It is the purpose of these exercises to train the | mind to think along the lines which the course sets forth. |
| W1:I.3 | The purpose of these exercises is to train the | mind to a different perception of everything in the world. The |
| W1:I.3 | which you spend any long period of time. The purpose is to train the | mind to generalize the lessons, so that you will understand that each |
| W1:3.2 | The point of the exercises is to help you clear your | mind of all past associations, to see things exactly as they appear |
| W1:3.2 | about them. It is therefore essential that you keep a perfectly open | mind, unhampered by judgment, in selecting the things to which the |
| W1:4.1 | periods, begin with noting the thoughts that are crossing your | mind for about a minute. Then apply the idea to them. If you are |
| W1:4.3 | and the meaningful within. It is also the beginning of training your | mind to recognize what is the same and what is different. In using |
| W1:4.5 | to be followed for the exercises. Do not, however, examine your | mind for more than a minute or so. You are too inexperienced as yet |
| W1:5.4 | be substituted for practice periods in which you first search your | mind for “sources” of upset in which you believe and forms of upset |
| W1:5.6 | are no small upsets. They are all equally disturbing to my peace of | mind. |
| W1:5.7 | Then examine your | mind for whatever is distressing you, regardless of how much or how |
| W1:5.10 | Then search your | mind for no more than a minute or so, and try to identify a number of |
| W1:6.3 | periods which are required should be preceded by a minute or so of | mind searching, as before, and the application of the idea to each |
| W1:6.5 | are no small upsets. They are all equally disturbing to my peace of | mind. |
| W1:8.1 | total misconception about time from which your seeing suffers. Your | mind cannot grasp the present, which is the only time there is. It |
| W1:8.2 | entailed in picturing the past or in anticipating the future. The | mind is actually blank when it does this because it is not really |
| W1:8.3 | The purpose of the exercises for today is to begin to train your | mind to recognize when it is not really thinking at all. While |
| W1:8.3 | not really thinking at all. While thoughtless “ideas” preoccupy your | mind, the truth is blocked. Recognizing that your mind has been |
| W1:8.3 | preoccupy your mind, the truth is blocked. Recognizing that your | mind has been merely blank, rather than believing that it is filled |
| W1:8.4 | seeing anything. With as little investment as possible, search your | mind for the usual minute or so, merely noting the thoughts you find |
| W1:8.9 | But my | mind is preoccupied with past thoughts. |
| W1:8.10 | or any emotion which the idea for today may induce in the | mind searching itself. |
| W1:9.2 | It is difficult for the untrained | mind to believe that what seems to be pictured before it is not |
| W1:9.2 | and understanding will finally come to lighten every corner of the | mind which has been cleared of the debris that darkens it. |
| W1:10.3 | is merely another way of repeating our earlier statement that your | mind is really a blank. To recognize this is to recognize nothingness |
| W1:10.6 | The exercises consist, as before, in searching your | mind for all the thoughts which are available to you, without |
| W1:10.6 | has little if any personal meaning to you. As each one crosses your | mind, say: |
| W1:10.8 | are recommended, each involving no more than a minute or so of | mind searching. It is not recommended that this time period be |
| W1:12.5 | world” implies an “unsatisfying” one. All terms which cross your | mind are suitable subjects for today's exercises. Their seeming |
| W1:14.2 | for today are to be practiced with eyes closed throughout. The | mind searching period should be short, a minute at most. Do not have |
| W1:14.4 | eyes closed, think of all the horrors in the world that cross your | mind. Name each one as it occurs to you, and then deny its reality. |
| W1:14.7 | It does not matter. What God did not create can only be in your own | mind apart from His. Therefore, it has no meaning. In recognition of |
| W1:16.4 | In applying the idea for today, search your | mind for a minute or so, with eyes closed, and actively seek not to |
| W1:16.5 | periods, first repeat the idea, and then as each one crosses your | mind, hold it in awareness while you tell yourself: |
| W1:19.3 | The minute or so of | mind searching which today's exercises require are to be undertaken |
| W1:19.3 | with eyes closed. The idea is to be repeated first, and then the | mind should be carefully searched for the thoughts it contains at |
| W1:19.3 | of the central person or theme it contains and, holding it in your | mind as you do so, say: |
| W1:20.2 | to be happy. You want peace. You do not have them now because your | mind is totally undisciplined, and you cannot distinguish between joy |
| W1:21.1 | and extension of the preceding one. This time, however, specific | mind searching periods are necessary in addition to applying the idea |
| W1:21.2 | repeating the idea to yourself. Then close your eyes and search your | mind carefully for situations past, present or anticipated, which |
| W1:21.4 | As you search your | mind for all the forms in which attack thoughts present themselves, |
| W1:21.4 | forms in which attack thoughts present themselves, hold each one in | mind and tell yourself: |
| W1:22.1 | accurately describes the way anyone who holds attack thoughts in his | mind must see the world. Having projected his anger onto the world, |
| W1:22.1 | will preoccupy him and people his entire world. What peace of | mind is possible to him then? |
| W1:23.6 | and then close your eyes and devote about a minute to searching your | mind for as many attack thoughts as occur to you. As each one crosses |
| W1:23.6 | as many attack thoughts as occur to you. As each one crosses your | mind say: |
| W1:23.8 | Hold each attack thought in | mind as you say this, and then dismiss that thought and go on to the |
| W1:24.2 | you cannot learn. The idea for today is a step toward opening your | mind so that learning can begin. |
| W1:24.3 | of a large number. Two minutes are suggested for each of the | mind searching periods which the exercises involve. |
| W1:24.4 | periods begin with repeating today's idea, followed by searching the | mind with closed eyes for unresolved situations about which you are |
| W1:24.4 | want. You will quickly realize that you have a number of goals in | mind as part of the desired outcome and also that these goals are on |
| W1:24.8 | of your goals are contradictory, that you have no unified outcome in | mind, and that you must experience disappointment in connection with |
| W1:24.9 | goals as possible for each unresolved situation that crosses your | mind, say to yourself: |
| W1:26.2 | Attack thoughts therefore make you vulnerable in your own | mind, which is where the attack thoughts are. Attack thoughts and |
| W1:28.3 | to withdraw your preconceived ideas about the table and open your | mind to what it is and what it is for. You are not defining it in |
| W1:28.5 | all your own ideas from it and look upon it with a completely open | mind. It has something to show you—something beautiful and clean |
| W1:30.4 | and distance, but it does not depend on the body's eyes at all. The | mind is its only source. |
| W1:30.5 | today's idea with your eyes closed, using whatever subjects come to | mind and looking within rather than without. Today's idea applies |
| W1:31.3 | you survey your inner world, merely let whatever thoughts cross your | mind come into your awareness, each to be considered for a moment and |
| W1:32.2 | world you see outside you and the other the world you see in your | mind. In today's exercises, try to introduce the thought that both |
| W1:34.1 | the conditions that prevail in the other way of seeing. Peace of | mind is clearly an internal matter. It must begin with your own |
| W1:34.1 | your own thoughts and then extend outward. It is from your peace of | mind that a peaceful perception of the world arises. |
| W1:34.3 | Some five minutes of | mind searching are required for each of the longer practice periods. |
| W1:34.3 | are required for each of the longer practice periods. Search your | mind for fear thoughts, anxiety provoking situations, “offending” |
| W1:34.3 | repeating the idea for today slowly as you watch them arise in your | mind, and let each one go, to be replaced by the next. |
| W1:34.5 | are to be frequent and made whenever you feel your peace of | mind is threatened in any way. The purpose is to protect yourself |
| W1:34.7 | If the inroads on your peace of | mind take the form of more generalized adverse emotions, such as |
| W1:34.7 | more than one application of today's idea to help you change your | mind in any specific context, try to take several minutes and devote |
| W1:35.4 | today's idea to yourself and then close your eyes and search your | mind for the various kinds of descriptive terms in which you see |
| W1:35.5 | In the earlier part of the | mind searching period, you will probably emphasize what you consider |
| W1:35.5 | however, more self-inflating descriptive terms may well cross your | mind. Try to recognize that the direction of your fantasies about |
| W1:35.8 | situations, personalities and events in which you figure cross your | mind. Pick up any specific situation that occurs to you, identify the |
| W1:35.9 | But my | mind is part of God's. I am very holy. |
| W1:36.1 | from the perceiver to the perceived. You are holy because your | mind is part of God's. And because you are holy, your sight must be |
| W1:36.1 | You cannot be without sin a little. You are sinless or not. If your | mind is part of God's, you must be sinless or a part of His Mind |
| W1:36.1 | If your mind is part of God's, you must be sinless or a part of His | Mind would be sinful. Your sight is related to His holiness, not to |
| W1:38.1 | power because it establishes you as a Son of God, at one with the | Mind of his Creator. Through your holiness, the power of God is made |
| W1:38.4 | repeat the idea for today, close your eyes, and then search your | mind for any sense of loss or unhappiness of any kind as you see it. |
| W1:38.9 | a specific problem concerning you or someone else arises or comes to | mind. In that event, use the more specific form of application. |
| W1:39.8 | and without undue emphasis on any one in particular, search your | mind for every thought that stands between you and your salvation. |
| W1:39.10 | is very difficult at first. It will become much easier as your | mind becomes more disciplined and less distractible. |
| W1:41.2 | cure all sorrow and pain and fear and loss because it will heal the | mind that thought these things were real and suffered out of its |
| W1:41.3 | goes with you wherever you go. Nothing can destroy your peace of | mind because God goes with you wherever you go. |
| W1:41.5 | idle thoughts of the world. Try to enter very deeply into your own | mind, keeping it clear of any thoughts that might divert your |
| W1:42.7 | contain. Let them come without censoring unless you realize your | mind is merely wandering and you have let obviously irrelevant |
| W1:42.7 | You may also reach a point where no thoughts at all seem to come to | mind. If such interferences occur, open your eyes and repeat the |
| W1:42.7 | once more, and then continue to look for related thoughts in your | mind. |
| W1:43.3 | you do, you do in Him because whatever you think, you think with His | Mind. If vision is real, and it is real to the extent to which it |
| W1:43.11 | If you should find your | mind wandering, if you begin to be aware of thoughts which are |
| W1:44.3 | It is a particularly difficult form for the undisciplined | mind and represents a major goal of mind training. It embodies |
| W1:44.3 | form for the undisciplined mind and represents a major goal of | mind training. It embodies precisely what the untrained mind lacks. |
| W1:44.3 | goal of mind training. It embodies precisely what the untrained | mind lacks. Yet the training must be accomplished if you are to see. |
| W1:44.4 | today is the most natural and easy one in the world for the trained | mind, just as it seems to be the most unnatural and difficult for the |
| W1:44.4 | as it seems to be the most unnatural and difficult for the untrained | mind. |
| W1:44.5 | Your | mind is no longer wholly untrained. You are quite ready to learn the |
| W1:44.7 | repeating the idea several times more. Then try to sink into your | mind, letting go every kind of interference and intrusion by quietly |
| W1:44.7 | of interference and intrusion by quietly sinking past them. Your | mind cannot be stopped in this unless you choose to stop it. It is |
| W1:45.2 | You think with the | Mind of God. Therefore you share your thoughts with Him, as He shares |
| W1:45.2 | you. They are the same thoughts because they are thought by the same | Mind. To share is to make alike or to make one. Nor do the thoughts |
| W1:45.2 | to make alike or to make one. Nor do the thoughts you think with the | Mind of God leave your mind, because thoughts do not leave their |
| W1:45.2 | one. Nor do the thoughts you think with the Mind of God leave your | mind, because thoughts do not leave their source. Therefore your |
| W1:45.2 | do not leave their source. Therefore your thoughts are in the | Mind of God, as you are. They are in your mind as well, where He is. |
| W1:45.2 | your thoughts are in the Mind of God, as you are. They are in your | mind as well, where He is. As you are part of His Mind, so are your |
| W1:45.2 | They are in your mind as well, where He is. As you are part of His | Mind, so are your thoughts part of His thoughts. |
| W1:45.3 | we will attempt to reach them. We will have to look for them in your | mind because that is where they are. They must still be there because |
| W1:45.3 | still be there because they cannot have left. What is thought by the | Mind of God is eternal, being part of creation. |
| W1:45.6 | in thinking a few relevant thoughts of your own, keeping the idea in | mind as you do so. After you have added some four or five thoughts of |
| W1:45.7 | My real thoughts are in my | mind. I would like to find them. |
| W1:45.8 | try to go past all the unreal thoughts that cover the truth in your | mind, and reach to the eternal. |
| W1:45.9 | thoughts and mad ideas with which you have cluttered up your | mind are the thoughts which you thought with God in the beginning. |
| W1:45.9 | which you thought with God in the beginning. They are there in your | mind now, completely unchanged. They will always be in your mind, |
| W1:45.9 | in your mind now, completely unchanged. They will always be in your | mind, exactly as they always were. |
| W1:45.10 | toward which the exercises for today are directed. Here is your | mind joined with the Mind of God. Here are your thoughts one with His. |
| W1:45.10 | exercises for today are directed. Here is your mind joined with the | Mind of God. Here are your thoughts one with His. |
| W1:45.12 | how important it is to you to understand the holiness of the | mind that thinks with God. Take a minute or two as you repeat the |
| W1:46.2 | Forgiveness thus undoes what fear has produced, returning the | mind to the awareness of God. For this reason, forgiveness can truly |
| W1:46.3 | your eyes as you do so and spend a minute or two in searching your | mind for those whom you have not forgiven. It does not matter “how |
| W1:46.6 | you have applied the idea for today to all those who have come to | mind, tell yourself, |
| W1:46.11 | a Son of God. I have already been forgiven. No fear is possible in a | mind beloved of God. There is no need to attack, because Love has |
| W1:47.8 | the latter phase of the practice period, try to reach down into your | mind to a place of real safety. You will recognize that you have |
| W1:47.8 | all the trivial things that churn and bubble on the surface of your | mind, and reach down and below them to the Kingdom of Heaven. There |
| W1:48.2 | you use the idea immediately should anything disturb your peace of | mind. |
| W1:48.3 | awareness that there is nothing to fear shows that somewhere in your | mind, not necessarily in a place which you recognize as yet, you have |
| W1:49.1 | interrupting your regular activities in any way. The part of your | mind in which truth abides is in constant communication with God, |
| W1:49.1 | whether you are aware of it or not. It is the other part of your | mind that functions in the world and obeys the world's laws. It is |
| W1:49.2 | Try today not to listen to it. Try to identify with the part of your | mind where stillness and peace reign forever. Try to hear God's Voice |
| W1:49.4 | Listen in deep silence. Be very still, and open your | mind. Go past all the raucous shrieks and sick imaginings that cover |
| W1:50.2 | of perfect peace and safety. It will transport you into a state of | mind which nothing can threaten, nothing can disturb, and where |
| W1:50.4 | surety. Let no idle and foolish thoughts enter to disturb the holy | mind of the Son of God. Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Such is the |
| W1:52.4 | [8] My | mind is preoccupied with past thoughts. I see only my own thoughts, |
| W1:52.4 | preoccupied with past thoughts. I see only my own thoughts, and my | mind is preoccupied with the past. What, then, can I see as it is? |
| W1:52.4 | that I look on the past to prevent the present from dawning on my | mind. Let me understand that I am trying to use time against God. Let |
| W1:52.6 | thoughts mean? They do not exist, and so they mean nothing. Yet my | mind is part of creation and part of its Creator. Would I not rather |
| W1:53.5 | is the Source of all meaning, and everything that is real is in His | Mind. It is in my mind too because He created it with me. Why should |
| W1:53.5 | all meaning, and everything that is real is in His Mind. It is in my | mind too because He created it with me. Why should I continue to |
| W1:54.3 | me look on the world I see as the representation of my own state of | mind. I know that my state of mind can change. And so I also know the |
| W1:54.3 | the representation of my own state of mind. I know that my state of | mind can change. And so I also know the world I see can change as |
| W1:54.5 | be alone in anything. It is therefore in my power to change every | mind along with mine, for mine is the power of God. |
| W1:55.6 | the world has led to a frightening picture of it. Let me open my | mind to its real purpose by withdrawing the one I have given it, and |
| W1:56.6 | [30] God is in everything I see because God is in my | mind. In my own mind, behind all my insane thoughts of separation and |
| W1:56.6 | [30] God is in everything I see because God is in my mind. In my own | mind, behind all my insane thoughts of separation and attack, is the |
| W1:56.6 | who I am because I have forgotten it. It has been kept for me in the | Mind of God, Who has not left His thoughts. And I, who am among them, |
| W1:57.6 | [35] My | mind is part of God's. I am very holy. As I share the peace of the |
| W1:59.6 | [45] God is the | Mind with which I think. I have no thoughts I do not share with God. |
| W1:59.6 | share with God. I have no thoughts apart from Him because I have no | mind apart from His. As part of His Mind, my thoughts are His and His |
| W1:59.6 | apart from Him because I have no mind apart from His. As part of His | Mind, my thoughts are His and His thoughts are mine. |
| W1:61.7 | thoughts come to you, and repeat the idea to yourself if your | mind wanders away from the central thought. |
| W1:62.3 | It will remove all sense of weakness, strain, and fatigue from your | mind. It will take away all fear and guilt and pain. It will restore |
| W1:62.8 | come freely, for your heart will recognize these words, and in your | mind is the awareness that they are true. Should your attention |
| W1:63.1 | How holy are you who have the power to bring peace to every | mind! How blessed are you who can learn to recognize the means for |
| W1:63.4 | The light of the world brings peace to every | mind through my forgiveness. I am the means God has appointed for the |
| W1:64.10 | difficult at first particularly, since you are not proficient in the | mind discipline which it requires. You may need to repeat “Let me not |
| W1:65.1 | God gave me.” This is the only way in which you can find peace of | mind. |
| W1:65.4 | This is part of the long range disciplinary training which your | mind needs, so that the Holy Spirit can use it consistently for the |
| W1:65.5 | your eyes, repeat the idea to yourself once again, and watch your | mind carefully to catch whatever thoughts cross it. |
| W1:66.9 | your function. We have seen that there are only two parts of your | mind. One is ruled by the ego and is made up of illusions. The other |
| W1:66.11 | the many forms which the illusion of your function has taken in your | mind and the many ways in which you tried to find salvation under the |
| W1:67.5 | you like Itself, this Self must be in you. And somewhere in your | mind, It is there for you to find. |
| W1:67.7 | hear the truth about yourself as frequently as possible because your | mind is so preoccupied with false self-images. Four or five times an |
| W1:68.1 | see yourself as a body. It is the decision to let the ego rule your | mind and to condemn the body to death. |
| W1:68.3 | to its Creator, your Self seems to sleep, while the part of your | mind that weaves illusions in its sleep appears to be awake. Can all |
| W1:68.6 | Begin today's extended practice period by searching your | mind for those against whom you hold what you regard as major |
| W1:69.4 | content which generally occupies your consciousness. Think of your | mind as a vast circle, surrounded by a layer of heavy dark clouds. |
| W1:69.6 | Determine to go past the clouds. Reach out and touch them in your | mind; brush them aside with your hand; feel them resting on your |
| W1:69.8 | go through the clouds to the light, to hold this confidence in your | mind. Try to remember that you are at last joining your will to |
| W1:69.8 | last joining your will to God's. Try to keep the thought clearly in | mind that what you undertake with God must succeed. Then let the |
| W1:70.1 | source of guilt. You see neither guilt nor salvation as in your own | mind and nowhere else. When you realize that all guilt is solely an |
| W1:70.1 | else. When you realize that all guilt is solely an invention of your | mind, you must also realize that guilt and salvation must be in the |
| W1:70.3 | be clear to you why the recognition that guilt is in your own | mind entails the realization that salvation is there as well. |
| W1:70.4 | the remedy for sickness where it cannot help. That is the way your | mind has worked, but hardly His. He wants you to be healed, and so He |
| W1:71.3 | that says, “If this were different, I would be saved.” The change of | mind that is necessary for salvation is thus demanded of everyone and |
| W1:71.4 | The role assigned to your own | mind in this plan, then, is simply to determine what other than |
| W1:72.2 | of this wish. For it is this wish which seems to surround the | mind with a body, keeping it separate and alone and unable to reach |
| W1:72.9 | Your upside-down perception has been ruinous to your peace of | mind. You have seen yourself in a body and the truth outside you, |
| W1:73.5 | light nor darkness can be found without. Grievances darken your | mind, and you look out on a darkened world. Forgiveness lifts the |
| W1:73.12 | yourself of this and determining to keep your will clearly in | mind, tell yourself with gentle firmness and quiet certainty: |
| W1:74.3 | firm determination to understand what they mean and to hold them in | mind: |
| W1:74.7 | sure to deal quickly with any conflict thoughts that may cross your | mind. Tell yourself immediately: |
| W1:74.11 | After you have cleared your | mind in this way, close your eyes and try to experience the peace to |
| W1:75.7 | Dwell not upon the past today. Keep a completely open | mind, washed of all past ideas and clean of every concept you have |
| W1:76.5 | These are not laws, but madness. The body is endangered by the | mind that hurts itself. The body suffers that the mind will fail to |
| W1:76.5 | endangered by the mind that hurts itself. The body suffers that the | mind will fail to see it is the victim of itself. The body's |
| W1:76.5 | see it is the victim of itself. The body's suffering is a mask the | mind holds up to hide what really suffers. It would not understand it |
| W1:76.10 | but God's. Dismiss all foolish magical beliefs today and hold your | mind in silent readiness to hear the Voice that speaks the truth to |
| W1:78.6 | You know the one to choose; his name has crossed your | mind already. He will be the one of whom we ask God's Son be shown to |
| W1:78.7 | today will see him in this role. We will attempt to hold him in our | mind, first as you now consider him. We will review his faults, the |
| W1:78.10 | eyes are closed, and as you think of him who grieved you, let your | mind be shown the light in him beyond your grievances. What you have |
| W1:R2.2 | close your eyes and listen. Repeat the first phase if you find your | mind wandering, but try to spend the major part of the practice |
| W1:82.2 | [63] The light of the world brings peace to every | mind through my forgiveness. My forgiveness is the means by which the |
| W1:82.4 | Let peace extend from my | mind to yours, [name]. I share the light of the world with you, |
| W1:85.5 | is there. It has not left its Source, and so it cannot have left my | mind. I will not look for it outside myself. It is not found outside |
| W1:91.5 | are not a body. Faith goes to what you want, and you instruct your | mind accordingly. Your will remains your teacher, and your will has |
| W1:91.9 | of what the Holy Spirit uses to replace the image of a body in your | mind. You need to feel something to put your faith in, as you lift it |
| W1:92.3 | strength in you that is the light in which you see, as it is His | Mind with which you think. His strength denies your weakness. It is |
| W1:93.17 | to you. And you can do much today to bring the conviction to your | mind that the idea for the day is true indeed. |
| W1:95.4 | you are at present. It is difficult at this point not to allow your | mind to wander if it undertakes extended attempts. You have surely |
| W1:95.4 | the extent of your lack of mental discipline and of your need for | mind training. It is necessary that you be aware of this, for it is |
| W1:95.12 | Begin the practice periods today with this assurance, given to your | mind with all the certainty that you can give: |
| W1:95.14 | attempting to allow the meaning of the words to sink into your | mind, replacing false ideas: |
| W1:95.18 | this Self within you and to cast all your illusions out of the One | Mind which is this Self, the holy truth in you. |
| W1:95.20 | hears the voice of hope, the stirring of the truth within his | mind, the gentle rustling of the wings of peace. Your own |
| W1:96.1 | yourself as two—as both good and evil, loving and hating, | mind and body. This sense of being split into opposites induces |
| W1:96.4 | A | mind and body cannot both exist. Make no attempt to reconcile the |
| W1:96.4 | two, for one denies the other can be real. If you are physical, your | mind is gone from your self-concept, for it has no place in which it |
| W1:96.5 | Spirit makes use of | mind as means to find its Self-expression. And the mind which serves |
| W1:96.5 | makes use of mind as means to find its Self-expression. And the | mind which serves the Spirit is at peace and filled with joy. Its |
| W1:96.5 | from Spirit, and it is fulfilling happily its function here. Yet | mind can also see itself divorced from Spirit and perceive itself |
| W1:96.6 | Yet | mind apart from Spirit cannot think. It has denied its Source of |
| W1:96.8 | Your Self retains its thoughts, and they remain within your | mind and in the Mind of God. The Holy Spirit holds salvation in your |
| W1:96.8 | retains its thoughts, and they remain within your mind and in the | Mind of God. The Holy Spirit holds salvation in your mind and offers |
| W1:96.8 | mind and in the Mind of God. The Holy Spirit holds salvation in your | mind and offers it the way to peace. Salvation is a thought you share |
| W1:96.9 | We will attempt today to find this thought, whose presence in your | mind is guaranteed by Him Who speaks to you from your One Self. Our |
| W1:96.9 | hourly five minute practicing will be a search for Him within your | mind. Salvation comes from this One Self through Him Who is the |
| W1:96.9 | comes from this One Self through Him Who is the bridge between your | mind and it. |
| W1:96.10 | patiently, and let Him speak to you about your Self, and what your | mind can do, restored to it and free to serve its will. |
| W1:96.14 | These are your own real thoughts you have denied, and let your | mind go wandering in a world of dreams, to find illusions in their |
| W1:96.15 | thoughts that come to you will tell you you are saved and that your | mind has found the function that it sought to lose. Your Self will |
| W1:96.15 | to the Spirit in all things created by the Spirit as Itself. Your | mind will bless all things. Confusion done, you are restored, for you |
| W1:96.16 | Your Self knows that you cannot fail today. Perhaps your | mind remains uncertain yet a little while. Be not dismayed by this. |
| W1:96.16 | time you spend five minutes of the hour seeking Him Who joins your | mind and Self, you offer Him another treasure to be kept for you. |
| W1:96.17 | Each time today you tell your frantic | mind salvation comes from your One Self, you lay another treasure in |
| W1:97.1 | this truth today as often as you can, for it will bring your | mind from conflict to the quiet fields of peace. No chill of fear can |
| W1:97.1 | to the quiet fields of peace. No chill of fear can enter, for your | mind has been absolved from madness, letting go illusions of a split |
| W1:97.2 | truth about your Self, the holy Son of God who rests in you whose | mind has been restored to sanity. You are the Spirit lovingly endowed |
| W1:97.3 | Today we try to bring reality still closer to your | mind. Each time you practice, awareness is brought a little nearer at |
| W1:97.4 | You are the Spirit in whose | mind abides the miracle in which all time stands still; the miracle |
| W1:97.6 | where pain and misery appear to rule. He will not overlook one open | mind that will accept the healing gift they bring, and He will lay |
| W1:97.11 | time you speak the words He offers you today, and let Him tell your | mind that they are true. |
| W1:98.6 | not contain. You can exchange a little of your time for peace of | mind and certainty of purpose with the promise of complete success. |
| W1:98.12 | it often, and do not forget each time you do so, you have let your | mind be readied for the happy time to come. |
| W1:99.3 | place at all where earth and Heaven can be reconciled within a | mind where both of them exist? The mind that sees illusions thinks |
| W1:99.3 | Heaven can be reconciled within a mind where both of them exist? The | mind that sees illusions thinks them real. They have existence in |
| W1:99.3 | in that they are thoughts. And yet they are not real because the | mind that thinks these thoughts is separate from God. |
| W1:99.4 | What joins the separated | mind and thoughts with Mind and thought which are forever one? What |
| W1:99.4 | What joins the separated mind and thoughts with | Mind and thought which are forever one? What plan could hold the |
| W1:99.5 | holds this plan of God exactly as it was received of Him within the | Mind of God and in your own. It is apart from time in that its Source |
| W1:99.9 | He has replaced all your mistakes enter the darkened places of your | mind which thought the thoughts that never were His Will. |
| W1:99.11 | shine through them to join them to the rest. It is God's Will your | mind be one with His. It is God's Will that He has but one Son. It is |
| W1:99.16 | the power to remove all forms of doubt and fear forever from your | mind. If you are tempted to believe them true, remember that |
| W1:99.20 | Thus do you lay forgiveness on your | mind and let all fear be gently laid aside that Love may find Its |
| W1:101.5 | never happen, for it has no cause. Accept Atonement with an open | mind which cherishes no lingering belief that you have made a devil |
| W1:101.9 | again to find the joy these thoughts will introduce into your | mind. Give these five minutes gladly to remove the heavy load you |
| W1:102.1 | once secured it tightly to the dark and hidden secret places of your | mind. |
| W1:102.6 | Then seek this function deep within your | mind, for it is there, awaiting but your choice. You cannot fail to |
| W1:103.1 | everywhere. And therefore joy is everywhere as well. Yet can the | mind deny that this is so, believing there are gaps in love where sin |
| W1:103.6 | Allow this one correction to be placed within your | mind each waking hour today. Then welcome all the happiness it |
| W1:104.1 | made ready to receive His gifts. They are not welcomed gladly by a | mind which has instead received the gifts it made where His belong, |
| W1:104.8 | seek for them where He has laid them. This reminder will we bring to | mind as often as we can: |
| W1:105.9 | you prepare yourself to recognize God's gifts to you and let your | mind be free of all that would prevent success today. Now are you |
| W1:105.10 | You must succeed today if you prepare your | mind as we suggest, for you have let all bars to peace and joy be |
| W1:106.1 | you nothing that you really want; if you will listen with an open | mind, which has not told you what salvation is; then you will hear |
| W1:107.2 | Can you imagine what a state of | mind without illusions is? How it would feel? Try to remember when |
| W1:107.3 | a hint, not more than just the faintest intimation of the state your | mind will rest in when the truth has come. |
| W1:107.4 | is no room for transitory thoughts and dead ideas to linger in your | mind. Truth occupies your mind completely, liberating you from all |
| W1:107.4 | thoughts and dead ideas to linger in your mind. Truth occupies your | mind completely, liberating you from all beliefs in the ephemeral. |
| W1:107.5 | They will merely blow away when truth corrects the errors in your | mind. |
| W1:107.11 | Truth will correct all errors in your | mind which tell you you could be apart from Him. You speak to Him |
| W1:107.12 | Truth will correct all errors in my | mind, and I will rest in Him Who is my Self. |
| W1:107.14 | the world will be corrected as you let them be corrected in your | mind. |
| W1:107.15 | tell yourself with confidence, “Truth will correct all errors in my | mind,” you speak for all the world and Him Who would release the |
| W1:108.2 | possible is not the light the body's eyes behold. It is a state of | mind which has become so unified that darkness cannot be perceived at |
| W1:108.3 | has power to heal. This is the light that brings your peace of | mind to other minds, to share it and be glad that they are one with |
| W1:108.11 | To everyone I offer quietness. To everyone I offer peace of | mind. To everyone I offer gentleness. |
| W1:109.6 | into stillness. Let these periods of rest and respite reassure your | mind that all its frantic fantasies were but the dreams of fever that |
| W1:109.7 | Each hour that you take your rest today, a tired | mind is suddenly made glad, a bird with broken wings begins to sing, |
| W1:109.11 | unborn and those passed by, to every Thought of God, and to the | Mind in Which these Thoughts were born and where they rest. And we |
| W1:110.2 | idea is therefore all you need to let complete correction heal your | mind and give you perfect vision which will heal all the mistakes |
| W1:110.2 | give you perfect vision which will heal all the mistakes that any | mind has made at any time or place. It is enough to heal the past and |
| W1:110.4 | are as God created you, then there has been no separation of your | mind from His, no split between your mind and other minds, and only |
| W1:110.4 | has been no separation of your mind from His, no split between your | mind and other minds, and only unity within your own. |
| W1:110.8 | Then, with this statement firmly in your | mind, try to discover in your mind the Self Who is the holy Son of |
| W1:110.8 | with this statement firmly in your mind, try to discover in your | mind the Self Who is the holy Son of God Himself. Seek Him within you |
| W1:110.9 | of God instead of what He is be worshiped not today. Deep in your | mind the holy Christ in you is waiting your acknowledgment as you. |
| W1:R3.4 | for whatever reason should be done as soon as you have changed your | mind about your goal. You are unwilling to cooperate in practicing |
| W1:R3.5 | exercise. And then begin to think about them while letting your | mind relate them to your needs, your seeming problems, and all your |
| W1:R3.6 | Place the ideas within your | mind and let it use them as it chooses. Give it faith that it will |
| W1:R3.6 | Who gave the thoughts to you. What can you trust but what is in your | mind? Have faith in these reviews, the means the Holy Spirit uses |
| W1:R3.6 | the means the Holy Spirit uses will not fail. The wisdom of your | mind will come to your assistance. Give direction at the start, and |
| W1:R3.6 | at the start, and then lean back in quiet faith and let the | mind employ the thoughts you gave as they were given you for it to |
| W1:R3.7 | see their messages and use them for yourself. Offer them to your | mind in that same trust and confidence and faith. It will not fail. |
| W1:R3.11 | Repeat it, and allow your | mind to rest a little time in silence and in peace. Then turn to |
| W1:111.2 | see in darkness. Let the light of holiness and truth light up my | mind And let me see the innocence within. |
| W1:113.3 | One Self. From my One Self, Whose knowledge still remains Within my | mind, I see God's perfect plan For my salvation perfectly fulfilled. |
| W1:119.2 | [107] Truth will correct all errors in my | mind. I am mistaken when I think I can be hurt in any way. I am God's |
| W1:119.2 | be hurt in any way. I am God's Son whose Self rests safely in the | Mind of God. |
| W1:119.5 | Truth will correct all errors in my | mind. |
| W1:121.2 | The unforgiving | mind is full of fear and offers love no room to be itself, no place |
| W1:121.2 | in peace and soar above the turmoil of the world. The unforgiving | mind is sad, without the hope of respite and release from pain. It |
| W1:121.3 | The unforgiving | mind is torn with doubt, confused about itself and all it sees, |
| W1:121.4 | What can the unforgiving | mind perceive but its damnation? What can it behold except the proof |
| W1:121.4 | behold except the proof that all its sins are real? The unforgiving | mind sees no mistakes, but only sins. It looks upon the world with |
| W1:121.5 | The unforgiving | mind is in despair, without the prospect of a future which can offer |
| W1:121.6 | Forgiveness is acquired. It is not inherent in a | mind which cannot sin. As sin was an idea you taught yourself, |
| W1:121.6 | self you think you made and let it disappear. Thus you return your | mind as one to Him Who is your Self and Who can never sin. |
| W1:121.7 | Each unforgiving | mind presents you with an opportunity to teach your own how to |
| W1:121.7 | its hope. And as its hope, do you become your own. The unforgiving | mind must learn through your forgiveness that it has been saved from |
| W1:121.9 | The unforgiving | mind does not believe that giving and receiving are the same. Yet we |
| W1:121.11 | Now close your eyes and see him in your | mind and look at him a while. Try to perceive some light in him |
| W1:121.12 | Look at this changed perception for a while, and turn your | mind to one you call a friend. Try to transfer the light you learned |
| W1:121.13 | role forgiveness plays in bringing happiness to every unforgiving | mind, with yours among them. Every hour tell yourself: |
| W1:122.1 | want peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do you want happiness, a quiet | mind, a certainty of purpose, and a sense of worth and beauty that |
| W1:122.3 | remembrance of your Father can arise across the threshold of your | mind. |
| W1:122.7 | God and not the world. The world can give no gifts of any value to a | mind which has received what God has given as its own. God wills |
| W1:122.13 | slip by and drift into forgetfulness but hold them firmly in your | mind by your attempts to think of them at least a minute as each |
| W1:123.8 | His thanks, and you will understand how lovingly He holds you in His | Mind, how deep and limitless His care for you, how perfect is His |
| W1:124.2 | our minds! And everything we see reflects the holiness within the | mind at one with God and with itself. How easily do errors disappear |
| W1:124.5 | lonely and afraid, who are restored to the tranquility and peace of | mind in which they were created. And we see it in the dying and the |
| W1:124.9 | will you fail to recognize it when it dawns with certainty upon your | mind. This half an hour will be framed in gold, with every minute |
| W1:124.10 | yourself. When you are ready, you will find it there within your | mind and waiting to be found. You will remember then the thought to |
| W1:125.1 | wills you hear His Word today. He calls to you from deep within your | mind where He abides. Hear Him today. No peace is possible until His |
| W1:125.1 | is possible until His Word is heard around the world; until your | mind, in quiet listening, accepts the message which the world must |
| W1:125.2 | save himself, given the Word of God to be his Guide, forever in his | mind and at his side to lead him surely to his Father's house by his |
| W1:125.4 | We gather at the throne of God today, the quiet place within the | mind where He abides forever in the holiness which He created and |
| W1:125.5 | He has not waited until you return your | mind to Him to give His Word to you. He has not hid Himself from you |
| W1:125.6 | Voice awaits your silence, for His Word cannot be heard until your | mind is quiet for a while and meaningless desires have been stilled. |
| W1:125.6 | within you to be called upon today to help make ready your most holy | mind to hear the Voice of its Creator speak. |
| W1:125.8 | of will and purpose, with no separation nor division in the single | Mind of Father and of Son. In quiet listen to your Self today, and |
| W1:126.6 | but a check upon overt attack, without requiring correction in your | mind. It cannot give you peace as you perceive it. It is not a means |
| W1:126.7 | forgiveness, as the means by which it is attained, must heal the | mind that gives, for giving is receiving. What remains as unreceived |
| W1:126.9 | place in your priorities. It is the thought that will release your | mind from every bar to what forgiveness means and let you realize its |
| W1:126.11 | of special value to yourself and all your brothers. Do not let your | mind forget this goal for long, but tell yourself: |
| W1:126.13 | Then spend a quiet moment, opening your | mind to His correction and His Love. And what you hear of Him you |
| W1:127.3 | on all as one. Its meaning lies in oneness. And it must elude the | mind that thinks of it as partial or in part. There is no love but |
| W1:127.7 | today escape from every law in which you now believe. Open your | mind and rest. The world that seems to hold you prisoner can be |
| W1:127.8 | this. And He Himself will place a spark of truth within your | mind wherever you give up a false belief, a dark illusion of your own |
| W1:127.8 | you allow His Voice to teach love's meaning to your clean and open | mind. And He will bless the lesson with His Love. |
| W1:127.11 | you and who came to learn what you must learn. And as he comes to | mind, give him this message from your Self: |
| W1:128.2 | you see a different purpose there. The only purpose worthy of your | mind this world contains is that you pass it by, without delaying to |
| W1:128.3 | Escape today the chains you place upon your | mind when you perceive salvation here. For what you value you make |
| W1:128.6 | and see how far you rise above the world when you release your | mind from chains and let it seek the level where it finds itself at |
| W1:128.7 | on the world will shift by just a little every time you let your | mind escape its chains. The world is not where it belongs. And you |
| W1:128.7 | when you release it from the world. Your Guide is sure. Open your | mind to Him. Be still and rest. |
| W1:128.8 | Protect your | mind throughout the day as well. And when you think you see some |
| W1:128.8 | aspect or an image of the world, refuse to lay this chain upon your | mind and tell yourself with quiet certainty: |
| W1:129.5 | Here is the world that comes to take its place as you unbind your | mind from little things the world sets forth to keep you prisoner |
| W1:129.10 | of darkness. Here is light your eyes cannot behold. And yet your | mind can see it plainly and can understand. A day of grace is given |
| W1:130.1 | believing what you see is really there. No one can see a world his | mind has not accorded value. And no one can fail to look upon what he |
| W1:131.10 | find. Leave foolish thoughts like these behind today, and turn your | mind to true ideas instead. |
| W1:131.14 | For several minutes watch your | mind and see, although your eyes are closed, the senseless world you |
| W1:131.14 | place where they can enter not. There is a door beneath them in your | mind which you could not completely lock to hide what lies beyond. |
| W1:132.2 | Yet is salvation easily achieved, for anyone is free to change his | mind, and all his thoughts change with it. Now the source of thought |
| W1:132.2 | with it. Now the source of thought has shifted, for to change your | mind means you have changed the source of all ideas you think or ever |
| W1:132.4 | everywhere because you hold the bitter thought of death within your | mind. The world is nothing in itself. Your mind must give it meaning. |
| W1:132.4 | of death within your mind. The world is nothing in itself. Your | mind must give it meaning. And what you behold upon it are your |
| W1:132.5 | you wish, and herein lies your ultimate release. Change but your | mind on what you want to see, and all the world must change |
| W1:132.6 | This central theme is often stated in the text and must be borne in | mind if you would understand the lesson for today. It is not pride |
| W1:132.6 | you made the world you see and that it changes as you change your | mind. But it is pride that argues you have come into a world quite |
| W1:132.11 | To free the world from every kind of pain is but to change your | mind about yourself. There is no world apart from your ideas because |
| W1:132.11 | ideas leave not their source, and you maintain the world within your | mind in thought. |
| W1:132.14 | Deny you are a shadow briefly laid upon a dying world. Release your | mind, and you will look upon a world released. |
| W1:132.18 | Then merely rest, alert but with no strain, and let your | mind in quietness be changed so that the world is freed along with |
| W1:132.20 | whenever you are tempted to deny the power of your simple change of | mind: |
| W1:133.2 | do not ask too much of life, but far too little. When you let your | mind be drawn to bodily concerns, to things you buy, to eminence as |
| W1:133.9 | rest. Why is the choice you make of value to you? What attracts your | mind to it? What purpose does it serve? Here it is easiest of all to |
| W1:134.3 | but reflects the hold that the idea of sin retains as yet upon your | mind as you regard yourself. |
| W1:134.9 | are tempted to accuse someone of sin in any form, do not allow your | mind to dwell on what you think he did, for this is self-deception. |
| W1:134.10 | for choice in terms which render choosing meaningful and keep your | mind as free of guilt and pain as God Himself intended it to be and |
| W1:134.12 | He can remove the ponderous and useless armor made to chain his | mind to fear and misery. His step is light, and as he lifts his foot |
| W1:134.13 | as alien to the world as is your own reality. And yet it joins your | mind with the reality in you. |
| W1:134.17 | will direct, and catalogue his “sins,” as one by one they cross your | mind. Be certain not to dwell on any one of them, but realize that |
| W1:134.19 | forget its meaning and attack yourself. When this occurs, allow your | mind to see through this illusion as you tell yourself: |
| W1:135.7 | with the right to serve you thus except your own belief? It is your | mind which gave the body all the functions that you see in it and set |
| W1:135.8 | cannot be too often emphasized. It will be strong and healthy if the | mind does not abuse it by assigning it to roles it cannot fill, to |
| W1:135.9 | and it becomes a healthy, serviceable instrument through which the | mind can operate until its usefulness is over. Who would want to keep |
| W1:135.10 | Defend the body, and you have attacked your | mind. For you have seen in it the faults, the weaknesses, the limits, |
| W1:135.10 | from which you think the body must be saved. You will not see the | mind as separate from bodily conditions. And you will impose upon the |
| W1:135.10 | upon the body all the pain that comes from the conception of the | mind as limited and fragile, and apart from other minds and separate |
| W1:135.11 | which it gains no benefit at all but merely adds to your distress of | mind. You do not heal but merely take away the hope of healing, for |
| W1:135.12 | A healed | mind does not plan. It carries out the plans which it receives |
| W1:135.13 | A healed | mind is relieved from the belief that it must plan, although it |
| W1:135.14 | Enslavement of the body to the plans the unhealed | mind sets up to save itself must make the body sick. It is not free |
| W1:135.14 | little while. In this capacity is health assured. For everything the | mind employs for this will function flawlessly and with the strength |
| W1:135.15 | them were made to realize. They are the means by which a frightened | mind would undertake its own protection at the cost of truth. This is |
| W1:135.16 | The | mind engaged in planning for itself is occupied in setting up control |
| W1:135.16 | for it rests on the idea the past has taught enough to let the | mind direct its future course. |
| W1:135.17 | The | mind that plans is thus refusing to allow for change. What it has |
| W1:136.4 | to be external to your own intent—a happening beyond your state of | mind, an outcome with a real effect on you instead of one effected by |
| W1:136.8 | a plan you lay when for an instant truth arises in your own deluded | mind and all your world appears to totter and prepare to fall. Now |
| W1:136.15 | can remain where it has been allowed to enter. And it comes to any | mind that would lay down its arms and cease to play with folly. It is |
| W1:136.17 | against the truth. I will accept the truth of what I am and let my | mind be wholly healed today. |
| W1:136.18 | Healing will flash across your open | mind as peace and truth arise to take the place of war and vain |
| W1:136.18 | pursuits with double purposes insanely sought, remaining in your | mind. It will be healed of all the sickly wishes that it tried to |
| W1:136.19 | or feeling well, of pain or pleasure. No response at all is in the | mind to what the body does. Its usefulness remains and nothing more. |
| W1:136.21 | needs to be preserved by careful watching. If you let your | mind harbor attack thoughts, yield to judgment, or make plans against |
| W1:136.21 | and made a bodily identity which will attack the body, for the | mind is sick. Give instant remedy should this occur by not allowing |
| W1:136.22 | Sickness is a defense against the truth, but I am not a body. And my | mind cannot attack. So I cannot be sick. |
| W1:137.2 | gives the body final power to make the separation real and keep the | mind in solitary prison, split apart and held in pieces by a solid |
| W1:137.6 | is real. The body seems to be more solid and more stable than the | mind. And love becomes a dream, while fear remains the one reality |
| W1:137.10 | yourself be healed, you see all those around you or who cross your | mind or whom you touch or those who seem to have no contact with you |
| W1:137.11 | is opposed to God does not exist. And who accepts it not within his | mind becomes a haven where the weary can remain to rest. For here is |
| W1:137.15 | my healing with the world, that sickness may be banished from the | mind of God's one Son, Who is my only Self. |
| W1:138.8 | beliefs can gain unconscious hold of great intensity and grip the | mind with terror and anxiety so strong that it will not relinquish |
| W1:138.9 | this time with Heaven's help, and all mistakes in judgment which the | mind had made before are open to correction as the truth dismisses |
| W1:138.13 | is the decision I must make. I make it now and will not change my | mind, because it is the only thing I want. |
| W1:139.5 | Your denial made no change in what you are. But you have split your | mind into what knows and does not know the truth. You are yourself. |
| W1:139.7 | of you, for what you are is certain. It is set forever in the holy | Mind of God and in your own. It is so far beyond all doubt and |
| W1:139.12 | dear our brothers are to us in truth, how much a part of us is every | mind, how faithful they have really been to us, and how our Father's |
| W1:139.13 | would distract us from our holy aim. For several minutes let your | mind be cleared of all the foolish cobwebs which the world would |
| W1:140.1 | is but what will make the body “better.” When it tries to heal the | mind, it sees no separation from the body, where it thinks the mind |
| W1:140.1 | the mind, it sees no separation from the body, where it thinks the | mind exists. Its forms of healing thus must substitute illusion for |
| W1:140.2 | to make him well. Yet he has not awakened from the dream, and so his | mind remains exactly as it was before. He has not seen the light that |
| W1:140.3 | one can merely dream he is awake. The dreams forgiveness lets the | mind perceive do not induce another form of sleep, so that the |
| W1:140.3 | dream. His happy dreams are heralds of the dawn of truth upon the | mind. They lead from sleep to gentle waking, so that dreams are gone. |
| W1:140.4 | Atonement heals with certainty and cures all sickness. For the | mind which understands that sickness can be nothing but a dream is |
| W1:140.7 | remedy the world provides that can effect a change in anything. The | mind that brings illusions to the truth is really changed. There is |
| W1:R4.3 | My | mind holds only what I think with God. |
| W1:R4.4 | this thought which fully guarantees salvation to the Son. For in his | mind no thoughts can dwell but those his Father shares. Lack of |
| W1:R4.6 | And yet your | mind holds only what you think with God. Your self-deceptions cannot |
| W1:R4.7 | Begin each day with time devoted to the preparation of your | mind to learn what each idea you will review that day can offer you |
| W1:R4.7 | review that day can offer you in freedom and in peace. Open your | mind and clear it of all thoughts that would deceive, and let this |
| W1:R4.8 | My | mind holds only what I think with God. |
| W1:R4.9 | to set the day along the lines which God appointed and to place His | Mind in charge of all the thoughts you will receive that day. They |
| W1:R4.11 | Each hour of the day bring to your | mind the thought with which the day began and spend a quiet moment |
| W1:R4.12 | you who practice thus the keeping of His Word. And as you give your | mind to the ideas for the day again before you sleep, His gratitude |
| W1:151.9 | you are, for He bears witness to your beautiful creation and the | Mind Whose thought created your reality. What can the body mean to |
| W1:151.13 | of truth in them. Let Him evaluate each thought that comes to | mind, remove the elements of dreams, and give them back to you as |
| W1:151.14 | each thought is thus transformed, it takes on healing power from the | Mind Which saw the truth in it and failed to be deceived by what was |
| W1:151.15 | will share the thoughts with you which He has retranslated in your | mind. |
| W1:152.2 | be part of peace, or grief of joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a | mind where love and perfect holiness abide? Truth must be |
| W1:152.5 | all shifts in feeling, alterations in conditions of the body and the | mind, in all awareness, and in all response. This is the |
| W1:152.6 | sinful and the guilty, the afraid, the suffering and lonely, and the | mind that lives within a body that must die? You but accuse Him of |
| W1:153.1 | illusory deceptions. It attacks and then attacks again. No peace of | mind is possible where danger threatens thus. |
| W1:153.2 | there is treachery without and still a greater treachery within. The | mind is now confused and knows not where to turn to find escape from |
| W1:153.3 | attack, become the circles of the hours and the days that bind the | mind in heavy bands of steel with iron overlaid, returning but to |
| W1:153.3 | nor ending in the ever-tightening grip of imprisonment upon the | mind. |
| W1:153.18 | for you will know that Heaven goes with you. Nor would you keep your | mind away from Him a moment, even though your time is spent in |
| W1:153.20 | will now begin to take the earnestness of love to help you keep your | mind from wandering from its intent. |
| W1:154.4 | which promises salvation from all sin, with guilt abolished in the | mind that God created sinless. Now this mind becomes aware again of |
| W1:154.4 | with guilt abolished in the mind that God created sinless. Now this | mind becomes aware again of Who created it and of His lasting union |
| W1:156.9 | I walk with God in perfect holiness. I light the world, I light my | mind and all the minds which God created one with me. |
| W1:157.4 | must be given you. Nothing is needed but today's idea to light your | mind and let it rest in still anticipation and in quiet joy wherein |
| W1:157.5 | who thinks of you. For your experience today will so transform your | mind that it becomes the touchstone for the holy thoughts of God. |
| W1:158.1 | What has been given you? The knowledge that you are a | mind, in Mind and purely mind, sinless forever, wholly unafraid |
| W1:158.1 | What has been given you? The knowledge that you are a mind, in | Mind and purely mind, sinless forever, wholly unafraid because you |
| W1:158.1 | given you? The knowledge that you are a mind, in Mind and purely | mind, sinless forever, wholly unafraid because you were created out |
| W1:158.2 | that the Father and the Son are one will come in time to every | mind. Yet is that time determined by the mind itself, not taught. |
| W1:158.2 | will come in time to every mind. Yet is that time determined by the | mind itself, not taught. |
| W1:158.5 | Yet there is a vision which the Holy Spirit sees because the | mind of Christ beholds it too. |
| W1:159.2 | are given you. Receive them now by opening the storehouse of your | mind where they are laid and giving them away. |
| W1:161.2 | Complete abstraction is the natural condition of the | mind. But part of it is now unnatural. It does not look on everything |
| W1:161.2 | is to show you what you wish to see. All hearing but brings to your | mind the sounds it wants to hear. |
| W1:161.4 | One brother is all brothers. Every | mind contains all minds, for every mind is one. Such is the truth. |
| W1:161.4 | One brother is all brothers. Every mind contains all minds, for every | mind is one. Such is the truth. Yet do these thoughts make clear the |
| W1:161.4 | sentiment, yet fundamentally not understood nor understandable. The | mind that taught itself to think specifically can no longer grasp |
| W1:161.6 | see. The body is the target for attack, for no one thinks he hates a | mind. Yet what but mind directs the body to attack? What else could |
| W1:161.6 | target for attack, for no one thinks he hates a mind. Yet what but | mind directs the body to attack? What else could be the seat of fear |
| W1:162.1 | This single thought, held firmly in the | mind, would save the world. From time to time we will repeat it, as |
| W1:162.3 | is he who makes these words his own—arising with them in his | mind, recalling them throughout the day, at night bringing them with |
| W1:162.4 | mighty, and they need no thoughts beyond themselves to change the | mind of him who uses them. So wholly is it changed that it is now the |
| W1:162.4 | with God. Christ's vision has restored your sight by salvaging your | mind. |
| W1:164.8 | treasures put away and leave a clean and open space within your | mind where Christ can come and offer you the treasure of salvation. |
| W1:164.8 | offer you the treasure of salvation. He has need of your most holy | mind to save the world. |
| W1:165.2 | makes soft your resting place and smooth your way, lighting your | mind with happiness and love. Eternity and everlasting life shine in |
| W1:165.2 | with happiness and love. Eternity and everlasting life shine in your | mind because the Thought of God has left you not and still abides |
| W1:165.3 | deny his safety and his peace, his joy, his healing and his peace of | mind, his quiet rest, his calm awakening if he but recognized where |
| W1:165.4 | asking. Nor need you perceive how great the gift, how changed your | mind will be before it comes to you. Ask to receive, and it is given |
| W1:165.5 | have exchanged your blindness for the seeing eyes of Christ; your | mind has come to lay aside denial and accept the Thought of God as |
| W1:165.6 | made certain, and salvation given you. Now is Christ's power in your | mind to heal as you were healed. For now you are among the saviors of |
| W1:166.2 | opposite effects from those He wills. Impossible indeed, but every | mind that looks upon the world and judges it as certain, solid, |
| W1:166.14 | Your hand becomes the giver of Christ's touch; your change of | mind becomes the proof that who accepts God's gifts can never suffer |
| W1:166.15 | gifts to you. Be witness in your happiness to how transformed the | mind becomes which chooses to accept His gifts and feel the touch of |
| W1:167.3 | an idea, irrelevant to what is seen as physical. A thought is in the | mind. It can be then applied as mind directs it. But its origin is |
| W1:167.3 | as physical. A thought is in the mind. It can be then applied as | mind directs it. But its origin is where it must be changed if change |
| W1:167.3 | on that idea is due to its centrality in our attempts to change your | mind about yourself. It is the reason you can heal. It is the cause |
| W1:167.6 | The | mind can think it sleeps, but that is all. It cannot change what is |
| W1:167.6 | It cannot make a body nor abide within a body. What is alien to the | mind does not exist because it has no source. For mind creates all |
| W1:167.6 | is alien to the mind does not exist because it has no source. For | mind creates all things that are and cannot give them attributes it |
| W1:167.6 | It cannot make the physical. What seems to die is but the sign of | mind asleep. |
| W1:167.7 | truth. Its form may change; it may appear to be what it is not. Yet | mind is mind, awake or sleeping. It is not its opposite in anything |
| W1:167.7 | Its form may change; it may appear to be what it is not. Yet mind is | mind, awake or sleeping. It is not its opposite in anything created |
| W1:167.8 | God creates only | mind awake. He does not sleep, and His creations cannot share what He |
| W1:167.9 | What seems to be the opposite of life is merely sleeping. When the | mind elects to be what it is not and to assume an alien power which |
| W1:167.9 | wrought are substanceless, and all events are nowhere. When the | mind awakes, it but continues as it always was. |
| W1:167.12 | perfect. As we were, so are we now and will forever be. A sleeping | mind must waken as it sees its own perfection mirroring the Lord of |
| W1:167.12 | makes reflection possible. No vision now is needed. For the wakened | mind is one that knows its Source, its Self, its holiness. |
| W1:168.1 | but this, yet this suffices. He will love His Son forever. When his | mind remains asleep, He loves him still. And when his mind awakes, He |
| W1:168.1 | When his mind remains asleep, He loves him still. And when his | mind awakes, He loves him with a never-changing Love. |
| W1:168.2 | is yours by your acknowledgment. And memory of Him awakens in the | mind which asks the means of Him whereby its sleep is done. |
| W1:168.3 | is more than just an answer. It restores all memories the sleeping | mind forgot; all certainty of what love's meaning is. |
| W1:169.1 | learning yet the goal of learning, for grace cannot come until the | mind prepares itself for true acceptance. Grace becomes inevitable |
| W1:169.3 | course aspires to attain. Yet we prepare for grace in that an open | mind can hear the call to waken. It is not shut tight against God's |
| W1:169.4 | and the Son as one has been already set. But we have also said the | mind determines when that time will be and has determined it. And yet |
| W1:169.4 | to hasten the experience of truth and speed its advent into every | mind which recognizes its effects on you. |
| W1:169.5 | the idea God is. And in His Being, He encompasses all things. No | mind holds anything but Him. We say “God is,” and then we cease to |
| W1:169.5 | are meaningless. There are no lips to speak them and no part of | mind sufficiently distinct to feel that it is now aware of something |
| W1:169.6 | speak nor write nor even think of this at all. It comes to every | mind when total recognition that its will is God's has been |
| W1:169.6 | has been completely given and received completely. It returns the | mind into the endless present, where the past and future cannot be |
| W1:169.7 | brings with it the experiences which bear witness that the time the | mind itself determined to abandon all but this is now at hand. We do |
| W1:169.7 | Who teaches what forgiveness means. All learning was already in His | Mind, accomplished and complete. He recognized all that time holds |
| W1:169.8 | a journey that is done. For oneness must be here. Whatever time the | mind has set for revelation is entirely irrelevant to what must be a |
| W1:170.4 | thought at war with you, depriving you of peace, splitting your | mind into two camps which seem wholly irreconcilable. For love now |
| W1:170.5 | conceived of it. Yet you attack outside yourself and separate your | mind from him who is to be attacked with perfect faith the split you |
| W1:R5.7 | nearer. This review will shorten time immeasurably if we keep in | mind that This remains our goal, and as we practice, it is This to |
| W1:R5.8 | those he teaches, seeing what they see, but still retaining in his | mind the way that led him out and now will lead you out with him. |
| W1:R5.9 | is a way from misery and pain. I am reborn each time a brother's | mind turns to the light in him and looks for me. I have forgotten no |
| W1:R5.15 | at the beginning and the end of practice periods, but to recall the | mind as needed to its purpose. We place faith in the experience that |
| W1:178.2 | [165] Let not my | mind deny the thought of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:182.1 | world you seem to live in is not home to you. And somewhere in your | mind you know that this is true. A memory of home keeps haunting you, |
| W1:182.1 | times hardly remembered, actively dismissed, but surely to return to | mind again. |
| W1:182.3 | he seeks. A thousand homes he makes, yet none contents his restless | mind. He does not understand he builds in vain. The home he seeks |
| W1:182.8 | from you, when valueless ideas cease to have value in your restless | mind, then will you hear His Voice. So poignantly He calls to you |
| W1:183.2 | cannot be heard without response, nor said without an echo in the | mind which calls you to remember. Say His Name, and you invite the |
| W1:183.9 | and let His Name become the all-encompassing idea which holds your | mind completely. Let all thoughts be still except this one. And to |
| W1:184.3 | of things un-unified, of bodies kept apart and holding bits of | mind as separate awarenesses? You gave these names to them, |
| W1:184.5 | Yet does this other vision still remain a natural direction for the | mind to channel its perception. It is hard to teach the mind a |
| W1:184.5 | for the mind to channel its perception. It is hard to teach the | mind a thousand alien names and thousands more. Yet you believe this |
| W1:184.8 | he really is. His body makes response to what you call him, for his | mind consents to take the name you give him as his own. And thus his |
| W1:185.6 | The | mind which means that all it wants is peace must join with other |
| W1:185.6 | peace is genuine, the means for finding it are given in a form each | mind which seeks for it in honesty can understand. Whatever form the |
| W1:185.8 | Today devote your practice periods to careful searching of your | mind to find the dreams you cherish still. What do you ask for in |
| W1:185.14 | uniting our desires with the need of every heart, the call of every | mind, the hope that lies beyond despair, the love attack would hide, |
| W1:186.1 | the statement that will one day take all arrogance away from every | mind. Here is the thought of true humility which holds no function as |

| W1:186.10 | These unsubstantial images will go and leave your | mind unclouded and serene when you accept the function given you. The |
| W1:187.2 | proof that when you give ideas away, you strengthen them in your own | mind. Perhaps the form in which the thought seems to appear is |
| W1:188.4 | The shining in your | mind reminds the world of what it has forgotten, and the world |
| W1:188.7 | they must remain with you as well, for they were born within your | mind as yours was born in God's. They lead you back to peace from |
| W1:189.5 | you see? The choice is given you. But learn and do not let your | mind forget this law of seeing: you will look upon that which you |
| W1:189.7 | about the world, all images you hold about yourself. Empty your | mind of everything it thinks is either true or false or good or bad, |
| W1:190.5 | is your thoughts alone that cause you pain. Nothing external to your | mind can hurt or injure you in any way. There is no cause beyond |
| W1:190.6 | thoughts. And it will change entirely as you elect to change your | mind and choose the joy of God as what you really want. Your Self is |
| W1:190.6 | forever and forever. And would you deny a little corner of your | mind its own inheritance and keep it as a hospital for pain, a sickly |
| W1:190.8 | is the thought of evil taking form and working havoc in your holy | mind. Pain is the ransom you have gladly paid not to be free. In pain |
| W1:192.5 | learning is complete, but hardly changing him who learns at all. The | mind without the body cannot make mistakes. It cannot think that it |
| W1:192.6 | Only forgiveness can relieve the | mind of thinking that the body is its home. Only forgiveness can |
| W1:192.6 | was asked, and only pain was lifted from a sick and tortured | mind. |
| W1:193.3 | perceive what form this law should take, to be received by every | mind which had forgotten it as it exists in Heaven and in God. Thus |
| W1:193.4 | God created to replace the foolish thoughts which crept into the | mind of His most holy Son with peace and joy fulfills His function |
| W1:193.9 | no more. These are the words which end the dream of sin and rid the | mind of fear. These are the words by which salvation comes to all the |
| W1:193.11 | is not learned. And there remains an unforgiveness hiding in the | mind which sees the pain through eyes the mind directs. |
| W1:193.11 | hiding in the mind which sees the pain through eyes the | mind directs. |
| W1:194.6 | make it be a part of you. As it becomes a thought which rules your | mind, a habit in your problem-solving repertoire, a way of quick |
| W1:194.7 | He is free to choose again when he has been deceived, to change his | mind when he has made mistakes. |
| W1:196.3 | Thus do you also teach your | mind that you are not an ego. For the ways in which the ego would |
| W1:196.4 | shows us, taking every step in its appointed sequence as the | mind relinquishes its burdens one by one. It is not time we need for |
| W1:196.8 | Whom you had thought to banish, can be welcomed back within the holy | mind He never left. |
| W1:196.10 | There is an instant in which terror seems to grip your | mind so wholly that escape appears quite hopeless. When you realize |
| W1:196.10 | When you realize once and for all that it is you you fear, the | mind perceives itself as split. And this had been concealed while you |
| W1:196.12 | as you should, for it is your release. It is indeed but you your | mind can try to crucify. Yet your redemption, too, will come from you. |
| W1:197.1 | Here is the second step we take to free your | mind from the belief in outside force pitted against your own. You |
| W1:197.4 | It does not matter if another thinks your gifts unworthy. In his | mind there is a part that joins with yours in thanking you. It does |
| W1:198.9 | to make its home with you. The truth bestows these words upon your | mind that you may find the key to light and let the darkness end: |
| W1:198.13 | everything you ever thought you made completely vanished from the | mind which God forever knows to be His only Son. |
| W1:199.1 | for freedom in a body looks for it where it cannot be found. The | mind can be made free when it no longer sees itself as in a body, |
| W1:199.1 | to it and sheltered by its presence. If this were the truth, the | mind were vulnerable indeed! |
| W1:199.2 | The | mind that serves the Holy Spirit is unlimited forever, in all ways, |
| W1:199.2 | to do whatever it is asked. Attack thoughts cannot enter such a | mind because it has been given to the Source of Love. And fear can |
| W1:199.2 | has been given to the Source of Love. And fear can never enter in a | mind that has attached itself to Love. It rests in God, and who can |
| W1:199.4 | sees. For this, the body will appear as useful form for what the | mind must do. It thus becomes a vehicle which helps forgiveness be |
| W1:199.6 | an undivided goal. In conflict-free and unequivocal response to | mind with but the thought of freedom as its goal, the body serves, |
| W1:199.6 | power to enslave, it is a worthy servant of the freedom which the | mind within the Holy Spirit seeks. |
| W1:199.7 | replace their fears through you. Accept salvation now, and give your | mind to Him Who calls to you to make this gift to Him. For He would |
| W1:199.8 | Son. In immortality you live forever. Would you not return your | mind to this? Then practice well the thought the Holy Spirit gives |
| W1:199.9 | free. I hear the Voice that God has given me, and it is only this my | mind obeys. |
| W1:200.5 | where you beheld but chains and iron doors. For you must change your | mind about the purpose of the world if you would find escape. You |
| W1:200.10 | at last, and you can feel its soft embrace surround your heart and | mind with comfort and with love. |
| W1:R6.2 | With this in | mind, we start our practicing in which we carefully review the |
| W1:R6.5 | except a deep relinquishment of everything that clutters up the | mind and makes it deaf to reason, sanity, and simple truth. |
| W1:R6.7 | If you notice one, deny its hold and hasten to assure your | mind that this is not what it would have. Then gently let the thought |
| W1:219.1 | [199] I am not a body. I am free. I am God's Son. Be still, my | mind, and think a moment upon this. And then return to earth without |
| W2:WF.2 | that it will not raise to doubt, although it is not true. The | mind is closed and will not be released. The thought protects |
| W2:221.1 | I come in silence. In the quiet of my heart, the deep recesses of my | mind, I wait and listen for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me today. |
| W2:225.1 | must return it, for I want it mine in full awareness, blazing in my | mind, and keeping it within its kindly light, inviolate—beloved, |
| W2:226.1 | It is not death which makes this possible, but it is change of | mind about the purpose of the world. If I believe it has a value as I |
| W2:227.1 | them down before the feet of truth, to be removed forever from my | mind. This is my holy instant of release. Father, I know my will is |
| W2:227.2 | home again, released from sin and clad in holiness, with his right | mind restored to him at last. |
| W2:229.2 | and sinless in the midst of all the thoughts of sin my foolish | mind made up. And thanks to You for saving me from them. Amen. |
| W2:230.2 | beyond all change. The peace in which Your Son was born into Your | Mind is shining there unchanged. I am as You created me. I need but |
| W2:WS.1 | have been born in time will end as well. God's Word is given every | mind which thinks that it has separate thoughts and will replace |
| W2:WS.2 | The thought of peace was given to God's Son the instant that his | mind had thought of war. There was no need for such a thought before, |
| W2:WS.2 | for peace was given without opposite and merely was. But when the | mind is split, there is a need of healing. So the thought which has |
| W2:WS.2 | the power to heal the split became a part of every fragment of the | mind that still was one but failed to recognize its oneness. Now it |
| W2:232.1 | Be in my | mind, my Father, when I wake and shine on me throughout the day |
| W2:235.1 | from this,” and merely watch them disappear. I need but keep in | mind my Father's Will for me is only happiness to find that only |
| W2:236.1 | it has been given me to serve whatever purpose I perceive in it. My | mind can only serve. Today I give its service to the Holy Spirit to |
| W2:236.1 | to the Holy Spirit to employ as He sees fit. I thus direct my | mind, which I alone can rule. And thus I set it free to do the Will |
| W2:236.2 | Father, my | mind is open to Your thoughts and closed today to every thought but |
| W2:236.2 | Your thoughts and closed today to every thought but Yours. I rule my | mind and offer it to You. Accept my gift, for it is Yours to me. |
| W2:246.1 | and still believe that my awareness can contain my Father, or my | mind conceive of all the love my Father has for me and all the love |
| W2:248.1 | What grieves is not myself. What is in pain is but illusion in my | mind. What dies was never living in reality and did but mock the |
| W2:WIS.1 | Sin is insanity. It is the means by which the | mind is driven mad and seeks to let illusions take the place of |
| W2:WIS.2 | The body is the instrument the | mind made in its striving to deceive itself. Its purpose is to |
| W2:WIS.2 | aim for striving. What it seeks for now is chosen by the aim the | mind has taken as replacement for the goal of self-deception. Truth |
| W2:255.2 | Son has not forgotten You. The peace You gave him still is in his | mind, and it is there I choose to spend today. |
| W2:256.1 | here. There is no other way. If sin had not been cherished by the | mind, what need would there have been to find a way to where you are? |
| W2:WIB.2 | of God's impermanence is “proof” his fences work and do the task his | mind assigns to them. For if his oneness still remained untouched, |
| W2:WIB.4 | the road with him. Now is the body holy. Now it serves to heal the | mind that it was made to kill. |
| W2:263.1 | Father, Your | Mind created all that is; Your Spirit entered into it; Your Love gave |
| W2:265.1 | was I to think that what I feared was in the world instead of in my | mind alone. Today I see the world in the celestial gentleness with |
| W2:265.1 | of Heaven, shining on the world. What is reflected here is in God's | Mind. The images I see reflect my thoughts. Yet is my mind at one |
| W2:265.1 | is in God's Mind. The images I see reflect my thoughts. Yet is my | mind at one with God's. And so I can perceive creation's gentleness. |
| W2:267.1 | my heart and floods my body with the purpose of forgiveness. Now my | mind is healed, and all I need to save the world is given me. Each |
| W2:WIC.1 | with God as well. He is the Thought Which still abides within the | Mind That is His Source. He has not left His holy home nor lost the |
| W2:WIC.1 | in which He was created. He abides unchanged forever in the | Mind of God. |
| W2:WIC.2 | an illusion of despair. For hope forever will abide in Him. Your | mind is part of His and His of yours. He is the part in which God's |
| W2:WIC.3 | alone, does Christ remain at peace within the Heaven of your holy | mind. This is the only part of you that has reality in truth. The |
| W2:278.2 | myself and my creation and have brought a dream of fear into my | mind. Today I would not dream. I choose the way to You instead of |
| W2:280.1 | in illusions, not in truth. No Thought of God has left its Father's | Mind. No Thought of God is limited at all. No Thought of God but is |
| W2:WIHS.3 | to Him, He will employ the means you made for exile to restore your | mind to where it truly is at home. |
| W2:WIHS.4 | rest upon your dreams and be restored to sanity and peace of | mind. Without forgiveness will your dreams remain to terrify you. And |
| W2:286.1 | find already given me. Your peace is mine. My heart is quiet and my | mind at rest. Your Love is Heaven, and Your Love is mine. |
| W2:289.1 | Unless the past is over in my | mind, the real world must escape my sight. For I am really looking |
| W2:290.1 | made is frightening and painful to behold. Yet I would not allow my | mind to be deceived by the belief the dream I made is real an instant |
| W2:WIRW.1 | seen through eyes of fear and brings the witnesses of terror to your | mind. The real world cannot be perceived except through eyes |
| W2:WIRW.2 | world shows a world seen differently, through quiet eyes and with a | mind at peace. Nothing but rest is there. There are no cries of pain |
| W2:WIRW.2 | the sights are gentle. Only happy sights and sounds can reach the | mind that has forgiven itself. |
| W2:WIRW.3 | What need has such a | mind for thoughts of death, attack, and murder? What can it perceive |
| W2:WIRW.3 | there that it would judge against? The world it sees arises from a | mind at peace within itself. No danger lurks in anything it sees, for |
| W2:291.2 | This day my | mind is quiet to receive the thoughts You offer me. And I accept what |
| W2:295.1 | thus redeem the world. He asks this gift that He may offer peace of | mind to me and take away all terror and all pain. And as they are |
| W2:304.1 | is a mirror, not a fact. And what I look on is my state of | mind reflected outward. I would bless the world by looking on it |
| W2:WILJ.1 | which has accepted this as true, projected from a now corrected | mind. And with this holy sight, perception gives a silent blessing |
| W2:311.1 | judgments you have made against yourself and re-establish peace of | mind by giving you God's Judgment of His Son. |
| W2:311.2 | Father, we wait with open | mind today to hear Your Judgment of the Son You love. We do not know |
| W2:315.1 | is gladdened. Someone speaks a word of gratitude or mercy, and my | mind perceives this gift and takes it as its own. And everyone who |
| W2:316.1 | Each one allows a past mistake to go and leave no shadow on the holy | mind my Father loves. His grace is given me in every gift a brother |
| W2:320.1 | His holy will can never be denied because his Father shines upon his | mind and lays before it all the strength and love in earth and |
| W2:322.2 | I anticipate except the loss of fear and the return of Love into my | mind? |
| W2:325.1 | This is salvation's keynote: What I see reflects a process in my | mind which starts with my idea of what I want. From there, the mind |
| W2:325.1 | in my mind which starts with my idea of what I want. From there, the | mind makes up an image of the thing the mind desires, judges |
| W2:325.1 | what I want. From there, the mind makes up an image of the thing the | mind desires, judges valuable, and therefore seeks to find. These |
| W2:326.1 | Father, I was created in Your | Mind, a holy thought that never left its home. I am forever Your |
| W2:330.1 | power and His love and bids them take what is already theirs? The | mind that is made willing to accept God's gifts has been restored to |
| W2:332.1 | Truth never makes attack. It merely is. And by its presence is the | mind recalled from fantasies, awaking to the Real. Forgiveness bids |
| W2:332.1 | bids this presence enter in and take its rightful place within the | mind. Without forgiveness is the mind in chains, believing in its own |
| W2:332.1 | take its rightful place within the mind. Without forgiveness is the | mind in chains, believing in its own futility. Yet with forgiveness |
| W2:333.1 | the reality which has been given it, and with the purpose that the | mind accorded it. For only then are its defenses lifted and the truth |
| W2:334.2 | then can be his solace but what You are offering to his bewildered | mind and frightened heart, to give him certainty and bring him peace? |
| W2:336.1 | and opens the hidden altar to the truth. Its lilies shine into the | mind and call it to return and look within, to find what it has |
| W2:336.1 | it has vainly sought without. For here and only here is peace of | mind restored, for this the dwelling-place of God Himself. |
| W2:336.2 | of my sinlessness is kept; Your Word remains unchanged within my | mind; Your love is still abiding in my heart. |
| W2:WIM.1 | really change at all. It merely looks on devastation and reminds the | mind that what it sees is false. It undoes error but does not attempt |
| W2:WIM.4 | The miracle is taken first on faith because to ask for it implies the | mind has been made ready to conceive of what it cannot see and does |
| W2:347.1 | my will and do not want what is my will to have. Straighten my | mind, my Father. It is sick. But You have offered freedom, and I |
| W2:361.1 | will He also give. And if I need but stillness and a tranquil, open | mind, these are the gifts I will receive of Him. He is in charge by |
| W2:E.3 | your efforts, telling you exactly what to do, how to direct your | mind, and when to come to Him in silence, asking for His sure |
| M:I.4 | curriculum, and everyone here does follow it until he changes his | mind, teaches solely to convince himself that he is what he is not. |
| M:2.2 | being of Him. The instant the idea of separation entered the | Mind of God's Son, in that same instant was God's Answer given. In |
| M:3.3 | the other. In time, the teacher of God seems to begin to change his | mind about the world with the single decision, and then learns more |
| M:4.10 | and easy. In fact, it is here. Who would “go” anywhere if peace of | mind is already complete? And who would seek to change tranquility |
| M:4.12 | The peace of | mind which the advanced teachers of God experience is largely due to |
| M:4.23 | Open-mindedness comes with lack of judgment. As judgment shuts the | mind against God's Teacher, so open-mindedness invites Him to come |
| M:5.4 | certain facts. First, it is obvious that decisions are of the | mind, not of the body. If sickness is but a faulty problem-solving |
| M:5.4 | approach, it is a decision. And if it is a decision, it is the | mind and not the body that makes it. The resistance to recognizing |
| M:5.5 | The acceptance of sickness as a decision of the | mind for a purpose for which it would use the body is the basis of |
| M:5.5 | recovery, he will not be healed. Who is the physician? Only the | mind of the patient himself. The outcome is what he decides that it |
| M:5.8 | If the patient must change his | mind in order to be healed, what does the teacher of God do? Can he |
| M:5.8 | healed, what does the teacher of God do? Can he change the patient's | mind for him? Certainly not. For those already willing to change |
| M:5.8 | for him? Certainly not. For those already willing to change their | mind he has no function except to rejoice with them, for they have |
| M:6.1 | The teacher of God has seen the correction of his errors in the | mind of the patient, recognizing it for what it is. Having accepted |
| M:6.4 | is trust that makes true giving possible. Healing is the change of | mind that the Holy Spirit in the patient's mind is seeking for him. |
| M:6.4 | Healing is the change of mind that the Holy Spirit in the patient's | mind is seeking for him. And it is the Holy Spirit in the mind of the |
| M:6.4 | patient's mind is seeking for him. And it is the Holy Spirit in the | mind of the giver Who gives the gift to Him. How can it be lost ? How |
| M:7.1 | is to limit the healing. It is now the teacher of God himself whose | mind needs to be healed. And it is this he must facilitate. He is now |
| M:7.1 | himself. He has made a mistake and must be willing to change his | mind about it. He lacked the trust that makes for giving truly, and |
| M:7.6 | confusion in identity. Conflict about what you are has entered your | mind, and you have become deceived about yourself. And you are |
| M:8.2 | as of major importance but is recognized as being untrue. The | mind therefore seeks to make it true out of its intensity of desire |
| M:8.2 | attempts to bring truth to lies. Finding truth unacceptable, the | mind revolts against truth and gives itself an illusion of victory. |
| M:8.2 | a burden, it retreats into feverish dreams. And in these dreams, the | mind is separate, different from other minds, with different |
| M:8.3 | Certainly they seem to be in the world outside. Yet it is surely the | mind that judges what the eyes behold. It is the mind that interprets |
| M:8.3 | it is surely the mind that judges what the eyes behold. It is the | mind that interprets the eyes' messages and gives them “meaning.” And |
| M:8.3 | world outside at all. What is seen as “reality” is simply what the | mind prefers. Its hierarchy of values is projected outward, and it |
| M:8.3 | is not the messages they bring on which perception rests. Only the | mind evaluates their messages, so only the mind is responsible for |
| M:8.3 | rests. Only the mind evaluates their messages, so only the | mind is responsible for seeing. It alone decides whether what is seen |
| M:8.4 | It is in the sorting out and categorizing activities of the | mind that errors in perception enter. And it is here correction must |
| M:8.4 | in perception enter. And it is here correction must be made. The | mind classifies what the body's eyes bring to it according to its |
| M:8.5 | he sees carrying affect their credibility in his perception? His | Mind has categorized them as real, and so they are real to him. When |
| M:8.6 | The body's eyes will continue to see differences, but the | mind which has let itself be healed will no longer acknowledge them. |
| M:8.6 | body's eyes will report their changed appearances as before. But the | mind will put them all in one category—they are unreal. This is the |
| M:8.6 | only two categories are meaningful in sorting out the messages the | mind receives from what appears to be the outside world. And of these |
| M:12.2 | become the Son of God. It is not really a change; it is a change of | mind. Nothing external alters, but everything internal now reflects |
| M:12.2 | reflects only the Love of God. God can no longer be feared, for the | mind sees no cause for punishment. God's teachers appear to be many, |
| M:12.4 | speak through it to human ears. And these ears will carry to the | mind of the hearer messages which are not of this world, and the mind |
| M:12.4 | the mind of the hearer messages which are not of this world, and the | mind will understand because of their Source. From this understanding |
| M:12.5 | When its usefulness is done, it is laid by, and that is all. The | mind makes this decision, as it makes all decisions which are |
| M:13.2 | body? Yet a body cannot evaluate. By seeking after such things, the | mind associates itself with the body, obscuring its identity and |
| M:13.3 | Once this confusion has occurred, it becomes impossible for the | mind to understand that all the “pleasures” of the world are nothing. |
| M:13.3 | —and it is sacrifice indeed—all this entails! Now has the | mind condemned itself to seek without finding, to be forever |
| M:13.4 | hope of Heaven and remembrance of his Father's Love. Who in his sane | mind chooses nothing as a substitute for everything? |
| M:16.5 | going to sleep is a desirable time to devote to God. It sets your | mind into a pattern of rest and orients you away from fear. If it is |
| M:16.7 | in the present as he was before illusions were accepted into his | mind and as he will be when he has let them go. There is no |
| M:16.8 | How can he do this, particularly during the time when his | mind is occupied with external things? He can but try, and his |
| M:16.11 | Heaven is reopened, and its light can shine again on an untroubled | mind. |
| M:17.3 | to with just one answer, and this answer will enter the teacher's | mind unfailingly. From there it shines into his pupil's mind, making |
| M:17.3 | teacher's mind unfailingly. From there it shines into his pupil's | mind, making it one with his. |
| M:17.5 | from God. It states in the clearest form possible that the | mind which thinks it believes it has a separate will that can oppose |
| M:17.7 | hidden but have not let go. Each one says clearly to your frightened | mind, “You have usurped the place of God. Think not He has |
| M:19.3 | perception and brings witness of the distorted world back to the | mind that made the lens and holds it very dear. Selectively and |
| M:19.5 | with your own insanity. Perception can make whatever picture the | mind desires to see. Remember this. In this lies either Heaven or |
| M:19.5 | becomes meaningless and indefensible. Perception rests, the | mind is still, and light returns again. Vision is now restored. What |
| M:20.2 | every way it is totally unlike all previous experiences. It calls to | mind nothing that went before. It brings with it no past |

| M:21.2 | to be very concrete. Unless a specific referent does occur to the | mind in conjunction with the word, the word has little or no |
| M:22.3 | system. This thought gives the body autonomy, separates it from the | mind, and keeps the idea of attack inviolate. If the body could be |
| M:22.3 | be sick, Atonement would be impossible. A body that can order a | mind to do as it sees fit would merely take the place of God and |
| M:22.3 | What then is left to heal? The body has become lord of the | mind. How could the mind be returned to the Holy Spirit unless the |
| M:22.3 | is left to heal? The body has become lord of the mind. How could the | mind be returned to the Holy Spirit unless the body is killed? And |
| M:22.4 | teacher of God calls forth the miracle of healing. He overlooks the | mind and body, seeing only the face of Christ shining in front of |
| M:23.4 | space between the two is lost the moment that the name is called to | mind. Remembering His name is to give thanks for all the gifts that |
| M:23.4 | for love cannot be far behind a grateful heart and thankful | mind. God enters easily, for these are the true conditions for your |
| M:25.5 | It is almost inevitable that, unless the individual changes his | mind about its purpose, he will bolster its uncertainties with |
| M:28.1 | surmounting of death. It is a reawakening or a rebirth, a change of | mind about the meaning of the world. It is the acceptance of the Holy |

| W1:45.12 | or two as you repeat the idea throughout the day to appreciate your | mind's holiness. Stand aside, however briefly, from all thoughts that |
mind-brain (1) | ||
| Tx:2.26 | Intellectualization is a term which stems from the | mind-brain confusion. “Right-mindedness” is the device which defends |

| Tx:19.22 | God to an ideal the ego wants; a world it rules, made up of bodies, | mindless and capable of complete corruption and decay. If this is a |
| W1:170.9 | to love what you have sought to wrest from it and lay before this | mindless piece of stone? Or will you make another idol to replace it? |

| Tx:1.48 | for this is the plan of the Atonement. Miracles are the way in which | minds which serve the spirit unite with Christ for the salvation or |
| Tx:2.38 | ones were not interested in peace. They had already split their | minds and were bent on further dividing rather than reintegrating. |
| Tx:2.38 | rather than reintegrating. The levels they introduced into their | minds turned against each other, and they established differences, |
| Tx:2.39 | Not being in their right | minds, they turned their defenses from protection to assault and |
| Tx:2.44 | a need to protect the body. The many body fantasies with which men's | minds are engaged arise from the distorted belief that the body can |
| Tx:2.65 | others. The message he then gives to others is the truth that their | minds are similarly constructive and that their miscreations cannot |
| Tx:2.94 | workers need that kind of training. I cannot let them leave their | minds unguarded, or they will not be able to help me. Miracle working |
| Tx:2.107 | must emerge from the conflict if they are to bring peace to other | minds. |
| Tx:3.9 | they do. It is strictly limited to an appeal to God to heal their | minds. There is no reference to the outcome of their mis-thought. |
| Tx:3.59 | separation. Correct perception of each other is necessary, because | minds have willed to see themselves as separate. Each Soul knows God |
| Tx:3.68 | The dispute over authorship has left such uncertainty in the | minds of men that some have even doubted whether they really exist at |
| Tx:3.73 | resolve the authority problem by depreciating the power of your | minds. To do so is to deceive yourself, and this will hurt you |
| Tx:3.77 | light. You still believe you are images of your own creation. Your | minds are split with your Souls on this point, and there is no |
| Tx:3.79 | That is why your Souls are still in peace, even though your | minds are in conflict. You have not yet gone back far enough, and |
| Tx:4.47 | break through the barriers the ego has set up and shine into your | minds. Against our united strength, the ego cannot prevail. |
| Tx:4.52 | No one can see through a wall, but I can step around it. Watch your | minds for the scraps of meanness or you will be unable to ask me to |
| Tx:4.53 | for once He has come, you will be ready to help me make other | minds ready for Him. How long will you deny Him His Kingdom? |
| Tx:4.56 | you are fighting to keep and what you are vigilant to save. Your | minds are filled with schemes to save the face of your egos, and you |
| Tx:4.57 | what you have done and left undone accordingly, and then change your | minds to think with God's. |
| Tx:4.63 | and His creations is easily made if you actively refuse to let your | minds slip away. The problem is not one of concentration; it is the |
| Tx:4.64 | and refuse to accept anything but this as your goal. Watch your | minds carefully for any beliefs that hinder its accomplishment, and |
| Tx:4.66 | means nothing more than the end of the ego's rule over part of the | minds of men and the healing of the mind. I was created like you in |
| Tx:4.67 | you that it is knowledge, means that Christ must come into your | minds and heal them. Although I am not attacking your egos, I am |
| Tx:4.67 | too confused to recognize your own hope. I was not mistaken. Your | minds will elect to join with mine, and together we are invincible. |
| Tx:4.76 | satisfy the mind without jeopardizing itself. Thus, it has permitted | minds to devote themselves to the possibility of perpetual motion, |
| Tx:4.80 | Your egos have been blocking the more important questions which your | minds should ask. You do not understand a patient while you |
| Tx:4.100 | is blocked when His channels are closed, and He is lonely when the | minds He created do not communicate fully with Him. |
| Tx:4.101 | still be returned by that mind through its attitudes to other | minds which the knowledge from the revelation brings. |
| Tx:4.103 | other egos, rather than as a real experiment in the cooperation of | minds. Rehabilitation as a movement is an improvement over the overt |
| Tx:5.5 | Healing is an act of thought by which two | minds perceive their oneness and become glad. This gladness calls to |
| Tx:5.18 | spirit of joy. He is the Call to return with which God blessed the | minds of His separated Sons. This is the vocation of the mind. The |
| Tx:5.21 | of Heaven, but you have let the belief in darkness enter your | minds, and so you need a new light. The Holy Spirit is the radiance |
| Tx:5.23 | even though they chose to leave Him. The voice they put in their | minds was not the voice of His Will for which the Holy Spirit speaks. |
| Tx:5.30 | I came into your | minds because you had grown vaguely aware of the fact that there is |
| Tx:5.41 | The Holy Spirit is the perfect teacher. He uses only what your | minds already understand to teach you that you do not understand it. |
| Tx:5.43 | of things past and to come. He holds this gladness gently in your | minds, asking only that you increase it in His name by sharing it, to |
| Tx:6.10 | model for rebirth, but rebirth itself is merely the dawning on your | minds of what is already in them. God placed it there Himself, and so |
| Tx:6.33 | This is as true of God's thinking as it is of yours. Because your | minds are split, you can also perceive as well as think. Yet |
| Tx:6.34 | not believe in what is not true. Since the Holy Spirit is in your | minds, your minds must also be able to believe only what is true. The |
| Tx:6.34 | in what is not true. Since the Holy Spirit is in your minds, your | minds must also be able to believe only what is true. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:6.36 | true in your mind and extends outward only to what is true in other | minds. |
| Tx:6.38 | the world. Each of us is the light of the world, and by joining our | minds in this light, we proclaim the Kingdom of God together and as |
| Tx:6.49 | The ego and the body conspire against your | minds, and because the ego realizes that its “enemy” can end them |
| Tx:6.52 | you are as true as He is, but what was once quite certain in your | minds has become only the ability for certainty. The introduction of |
| Tx:6.73 | projects its own split, and thus does not perceive consistent | minds in others, making him suspicious of their motivation. This is |
| Tx:6.76 | Spirit's Voice and its perfect consistency, it must dawn on your | minds that you are trying to undo a decision which was made |
| Tx:6.84 | The Holy Spirit does not teach your mind to be critical of other | minds, because He does not want you to teach errors and learn them |
| Tx:6.89 | If you allow yourselves to have in your | minds only what God put there, you are acknowledging your mind as God |
| Tx:6.91 | The third step is thus one of protection for your | minds, allowing you to identify only with the center, where God |
| Tx:6.91 | as belief in God and His Kingdom is assailed by any doubts in your | minds, His perfect accomplishment is not apparent to you. This is why |
| Tx:6.92 | that it is one. Now you must be vigilant to hold its oneness in your | minds because, if you let doubt enter, you will lose awareness of its |
| Tx:6.94 | which you valued, you did not keep only the Kingdom of God in your | minds and thus placed part of your mind outside it. What you have |
| Tx:7.10 | you both within the Kingdom and restores its wholeness in your | minds. This parallels creation, because it unifies by increasing and |
| Tx:7.13 | without seeing them as different [and] conflicting, because | minds can be in perfect accord. |
| Tx:7.15 | them. You could not do this yourselves, because conflicted | minds cannot be faithful to one meaning and will therefore change the |
| Tx:7.28 | than their perfect equals, the idea of competition has entered their | minds. Do not underestimate your need to be vigilant against this |
| Tx:7.29 | and being are ultimately reconciled, not in the Kingdom, but in your | minds. The altar there is the only reality. The altar is perfectly |
| Tx:7.30 | God has lit your | minds Himself and keeps your minds lit by His light, because His |
| Tx:7.30 | God has lit your minds Himself and keeps your | minds lit by His light, because His light is what your minds are. |
| Tx:7.30 | keeps your minds lit by His light, because His light is what your | minds are. This is totally beyond question, and when you questioned |
| Tx:7.30 | do not raise questions, because nothing questionable enters their | minds. This holds them in perfect serenity, because this is what they |
| Tx:7.31 | of the resurrection and the life. The Spirit is not asleep in the | minds of the sick, but the part of the mind that can perceive it and |
| Tx:7.40 | Only | minds communicate. Since the ego cannot obliterate the impulse to |
| Tx:7.41 | because He does not accept the ego's confusion of mind and body. | Minds can communicate, but they cannot hurt. The body in the service |
| Tx:7.51 | Him who created me. Through this remembrance, you can change their | minds about themselves, as I can change yours. Your minds are so |
| Tx:7.51 | can change their minds about themselves, as I can change yours. Your | minds are so powerful a light that you can look into theirs and |
| Tx:7.52 | truly, they will be healed. Let your mind shine with mine upon their | minds and by our gratitude to them make them aware of the light in |
| Tx:7.63 | to either must be total, since they cannot coexist in your | minds without splitting them. If they cannot coexist in peace and if |
| Tx:7.63 | systems share truth, your need for vigilance is apparent. Your | minds are dividing their allegiance between two kingdoms, and you are |
| Tx:7.67 | Allowing insanity to enter your | minds means that you have not judged sanity as wholly desirable. If |
| Tx:7.67 | this divided state, because only peace can be extended. Your divided | minds are blocking the extension of the Kingdom, and its extension is |
| Tx:7.77 | sufficiently worthy to teach another. One Teacher is in all your | minds, and He teaches the same lesson to all. He always teaches you |
| Tx:7.84 | mind's real purpose. It projects conflict from your mind to other | minds in an attempt to persuade you that you have gotten rid of it. |
| Tx:7.86 | They do believe they have blotted their projections from their own | minds, but they also believe their projections are trying to creep |
| Tx:7.86 | back into them. That is because the projections have not left their | minds, and this in turn forces them to engage in compulsive activity |
| Tx:7.87 | product of the misapplication of the laws of God by distorted | minds which are misusing their own power. |
| Tx:7.88 | be undone completely so that all their effects will vanish from your | minds and from the Sonship as a whole. |
| Tx:7.100 | Yet the function which God Himself gave your | minds through His you may deny, but you cannot prevent. It is the |
| Tx:7.110 | shines all around it and extends out into the darkness of other | minds, transforming them into majesty. |
| Tx:8.16 | is no limit on your learning, because there is no limit on your | minds. There is no limit on His Will to teach, because He was created |
| Tx:8.41 | but it is also not yours. The Holy Spirit has one direction for all | minds, and the one He taught me is yours. Let us not lose sight of |
| Tx:8.54 | interpret their bodies and yours solely as a means of joining their | minds and uniting them with yours and mine. This interpretation of |
| Tx:8.55 | for attack, it is harmful to you. If you use it only to reach the | minds of those who believe they are bodies and teach them through the |
| Tx:8.64 | in it. This can be accomplished only if the mind extends to other | minds and does not arrest itself in its extension. |
| Tx:8.68 | yourselves to suffer from the results of what is not true. Free your | minds from the belief that this is possible. In its complete |
| Tx:8.87 | enjoined to do the works of love, because we share this oneness. Our | minds are whole because they are one. If you are sick you are |
| Tx:8.92 | be highly artificial at most, is particularly inappropriate in the | minds of those who do not know what truth is. All that this kind of |
| Tx:8.94 | no difference between your will and God's. If you did not have split | minds, you would recognize that willing is salvation because it is |
| Tx:9.14 | it unreal for you. Do not let any belief in its realness enter your | minds at all, or you will also believe that you must undo what you |
| Tx:9.29 | As you awaken other | minds to the Holy Spirit through Him and not yourself, you will |
| Tx:9.41 | You, then, have two conflicting evaluations of yourself in your | minds, and they cannot both be true. You do not yet realize how |
| Tx:9.64 | is simply that you would decide against them as long as your | minds are split, and to attack what you have created is impossible. |
| Tx:9.76 | Your | minds are not separate, and God has only one channel for healing, |
| Tx:9.77 | All forms of idolatry are caricatures of creation, taught by sick | minds which are too divided to know that creation shares power and |
| Tx:9.88 | God's laws will keep your | minds at peace, because peace is His Will, and His laws are |
| Tx:9.106 | in eternity, it is true in time, so that while time lasts in your | minds, there will be choices. Time itself was your choice. |
| Tx:10.21 | became yours with His gift. Invite this knowledge back into your | minds, and let nothing that will obscure it enter. The Guest whom God |
| Tx:10.29 | was not His Thought and therefore does not belong to Him. And your | minds must be as pure as His if you would know what belongs to you. |
| Tx:10.89 | replace them with peace. For fear lies not in reality, but in the | minds of children who do not understand reality. It is only their |
| Tx:11.5 | own good. What can this be but projection? For his errors lay in the | minds of his interpreters, for which they punished him. |
| Tx:11.69 | of your conflicting invitations. You have looked upon your | minds and accepted opposition there, having sought it there. But do |
| Tx:11.80 | only for Him and do not know it. Yet His memory shines in your | minds and cannot be obliterated. It is no more past than future, |
| Tx:11.86 | suffering, and they learn of sorrow and separation and death. Their | minds are trapped in their brain, and its powers decline if their |
| Tx:11.96 | be now. Guilt, then, is a way of holding past and future in your | minds to ensure the ego's continuity. For if what has been will be |
| Tx:12.17 | Do not leave any spot of pain hidden from His light, and search your | minds carefully for any thoughts which you may fear to uncover. For |
| Tx:12.20 | who prefer specialness to sanity could not obtain it in your right | minds. You were at peace until you asked for special favor. And God |
| Tx:12.28 | unless you bring them with you. They carry the spots of pain in your | minds, directing you to attack in the present in retaliation for a |
| Tx:12.46 | choose to bring this darkness with you, and by holding it in your | minds, see it as a dark cloud that shrouds your brothers and conceals |
| Tx:13.7 | the redemption leads you to it by reestablishing its oneness in your | minds. |
| Tx:13.14 | separate the false and the true, which you have accepted into your | minds without distinction. Therefore, you cannot value one without |
| Tx:13.39 | You whose | minds are darkened by doubt and guilt, remember this: God gave the |
| Tx:13.42 | Communication Link which God Himself placed within you, joining your | minds with His, cannot be broken. You may believe you want it broken, |
| Tx:13.56 | in the end the only one. Simplicity is very difficult for twisted | minds. Consider all the distortions you have made of nothing—all |
| Tx:14.12 | and union. Stand quietly within this circle and attract all tortured | minds to join with you in the safety of its peace and holiness. Abide |
| Tx:14.35 | Let your | minds wander not through darkened corridors, away from light's |
| Tx:14.46 | forever. The reflections which you accept into the mirror of your | minds in time but bring eternity nearer or farther. But eternity |
| Tx:14.49 | patterns of light and darkness sweep constantly across your | minds. |
| Tx:14.50 | would be possible. Yet though the order which you impose upon your | minds limits the ego, it also limits you. To order is to judge and to |
| Tx:14.63 | not yours. Unless all this is true, there are dark lessons in your | minds which hurt and hinder you and everyone around you. The absence |
| Tx:15.27 | clean of all littleness, clearly and in perfect safety in your | minds, untouched by every little gift the world of littleness would |
| Tx:15.37 | apart from Him diminishes the value of His Will for you in your own | minds. And yet it is your mind that is the host to Him. |
| Tx:15.40 | is open, both to receive and give. It is the recognition that all | minds are in communication. It therefore seeks to change nothing, but |
| Tx:15.63 | us that peace will come. Join me in the idea of peace, for in ideas | minds can communicate. If you would give yourself as your Father |
| Tx:15.75 | be abandoned. And yet you do believe it. For you think that your | minds must be kept private or you will lose them, and if your bodies |
| Tx:15.75 | private or you will lose them, and if your bodies are together your | minds remain your own. The union of bodies thus becomes the way in |
| Tx:15.75 | The union of bodies thus becomes the way in which you would keep | minds apart. For bodies cannot forgive. They can only do as the mind |
| Tx:15.88 | His body cannot give it. And seek it not through yours. Yet your | minds are already continuous, and their union need only be accepted, |
| Tx:15.107 | In the holy instant, the condition of love is met, for | minds are joined without the body's interference, and where there is |
| Tx:16.12 | miracle cannot seem natural because what you have done to hurt your | minds has made them so unnatural that they do not remember what is |
| Tx:16.13 | whenever you have reached another mind and joined with it. When two | minds join as one and share one idea equally, the first link in the |
| Tx:16.17 | both been brought into awareness. And this has been accomplished in | minds firmly convinced that holiness is weakness and attack is power. |
| Tx:16.24 | that you have taken in that is not you. What you accept into your | minds does not really change them. Illusions are but beliefs in what |
| Tx:16.65 | with you in your transition. The urgency is only in dislodging your | minds from their fixed position here. This will not leave you |
| Tx:16.65 | actual transition is far shorter than the time it took to fix your | minds so firmly on illusions. Delay will hurt you now more than |
| Tx:16.66 | you are. You have allowed the Thought of your reality to enter your | minds, and because you invited it, it will abide with you. Your love |
| Tx:16.81 | let us receive only what you have given and accept but this into the | minds which You created and which You love. Amen. |
| Tx:17.14 | them by your own selection do not understand how they came into your | minds and what their purpose is. |
| Tx:17.29 | undertaken has as its fundamental purpose the aim of occupying your | minds so completely that you will not hear the call of truth. In a |
| Tx:17.42 | in peace together to the Father by giving Him ascendance in our | minds. We will gain everything by giving Him the power and the glory |
| Tx:17.65 | this is impossible. Some idea of bodies must have entered, for | minds cannot attack. |
| Tx:18.30 | separate pasts would hinder. You have gone past fear, for no two | minds can join in the desire for love without love's joining them. |
| Tx:18.32 | the willingness to let it come precedes its coming. You prepare your | minds for it only to the extent of recognizing that you want it above |
| Tx:18.40 | is why the past has gone. It never happened in reality. Only in your | minds, which thought it did, is its undoing needful. |
| Tx:18.50 | yet realize. You have displaced your guilt to your bodies from your | minds. Yet a body cannot be guilty, for it can do nothing of itself. |
| Tx:18.50 | You who think you hate your bodies deceive yourselves. You hate your | minds, for guilt has entered into them, and they would remain |
| Tx:18.51 | Minds are joined; bodies are not. Only by assigning to the mind the | |
| Tx:18.55 | This thing you made to serve your guilt stands between you and other | minds. The minds are joined, but you do not identify with them. You |
| Tx:18.55 | you made to serve your guilt stands between you and other minds. The | minds are joined, but you do not identify with them. You see yourself |
| Tx:19.17 | The belief in sin is necessarily based on the firm conviction that | minds, not bodies, can attack. And thus the mind is guilty and will |
| Tx:19.80 | Will of God Himself. Where can such opposition lie but in the sick | minds of the insane, dedicated to madness and set against the peace |
| Tx:20.6 | they will exchange their gifts, offering and receiving what their | minds judge to be worthy of them. |
| Tx:20.29 | Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of the laws of God in | minds that have established other laws and given them power to |
| Tx:20.41 | it is used only as the Holy Spirit teaches, it has no function, for | minds need not the body to communicate. The sight that sees the body |
| Tx:20.53 | on what you have awakened from. For no illusions can attract the | minds that have transcended them and left them far behind. |
| Tx:21.47 | —the song it longed to hear since first the ego came into your | minds. The ego's weakness is its strength. The song of freedom, which |
| Tx:21.51 | unnatural to the ego because it does not understand how separate | minds can influence each other. Nor could they do so. But minds |
| Tx:21.51 | separate minds can influence each other. Nor could they do so. But | minds cannot be separate. This other Self is perfectly aware of this. |
| Tx:21.60 | seems like yours alone have no effect at all on what is yours? If | minds are joined, this is impossible. |
| Tx:22.43 | to more than you. Those who would let illusions be lifted from their | minds are this world's saviors, walking the world with their Redeemer |
| Tx:22.56 | that is eternal. No trace of anything in time can long remain in | minds that serve the timeless. And no illusion can disturb the peace |
| Tx:22.64 | the other will experience with him. What can this mean except your | minds are one? Look not with fear upon this happy fact and think not |
| Tx:22.64 | is a reflection of the union of the Creator and His Son. From loving | minds there is no separation. And every thought in one brings |
| Tx:23.18 | goes the other disappears. So is the memory of God obscured in | minds that have become illusion's battleground. Yet far beyond this |
| Tx:24.35 | is its curse. Yet bodies have no goal. Purpose is of the mind. And | minds can change as they desire. What they are and all their |
| Tx:24.36 | This has been oft repeated but is difficult to grasp as yet. To | minds intent on specialness, it is impossible. Yet to those who wish |
| Tx:25.3 | know Him not, it carries Him in gentleness and love to heal their | minds. Such is the mission that your brother has for you. And such it |
| Tx:25.32 | Minds that are joined and recognize they are can feel no guilt. For | |
| Tx:26.68 | which takes different forms. If it has been projected beyond your | minds, you think of it as time. The nearer it is brought to where it |
| Tx:28.11 | that quiet time, and from the mind it healed in quiet then, to other | minds to share its quietness. And they will join in doing nothing to |
| Tx:28.11 | to prevent its radiant extension back into the mind Which caused all | minds to be. Born out of sharing, there can be no pause in time to |
| Tx:28.11 | pause in time to cause the miracle delay in hastening to all unquiet | minds and bringing them an instant's stillness when the memory of God |
| Tx:28.18 | A mind within a body and a world of other bodies, each with separate | minds, are your “creations,” you the “other” mind, creating with |
| Tx:28.29 | apart from you. Thus is the body not perceived as sick by both your | minds, from separate points of view. Uniting with a brother's mind |
| Tx:28.29 | cause of sickness and perceived effects. Healing is the effect of | minds which join, as sickness comes from minds which separate. |
| Tx:28.29 | Healing is the effect of minds which join, as sickness comes from | minds which separate. |
| Tx:28.30 | The miracle does nothing just because the | minds are joined and cannot separate. Yet in the dreaming has this |
| Tx:28.30 | separate. Yet in the dreaming has this been reversed, and separate | minds are seen as bodies which are separated and which cannot join. |
| Tx:28.32 | for a little while? Where are the grounds for sickness when the | minds have joined to close the little gap between them where the |
| Tx:28.40 | And yet, between your | minds there is no gap. To join his dreams is thus to meet him not |
| Tx:28.40 | inhabited but by illusions which you have supported in each other's | minds. |
| Tx:28.43 | The Holy Spirit is in both your | minds, and He is One because there is no gap that separates His |
| Tx:29.4 | two separate bodies. This but seems to be dividing off your separate | minds. It is the symbol of a promise made to meet when you prefer and |
| Tx:29.5 | The body could not separate your | minds unless you wanted it to be a cause of separation and of |
| Tx:29.35 | how great the cost of holding anything God did not give in | minds that can direct the hand to bless and lead God's Son unto his |
| Tx:29.50 | idols in a world made sad and sick by seeing idols there. Your holy | minds are altars unto God, and where He is, no idols can abide. The |
| Tx:29.64 | and speak for them. Yet everything their toys appear to do is in the | minds of those who play with them. But they are eager to forget that |
| Tx:31.12 | do not know. Let every image held of [anyone] be loosened from our | minds and swept away. Be innocent of judgment, unaware of any |
| Tx:31.28 | Sins are in bodies. They are not perceived in | minds. They are not seen as purposes but actions. Bodies act, and |
| Tx:31.28 | in minds. They are not seen as purposes but actions. Bodies act, and | minds do not. And therefore must the body be at fault for what it |
| Tx:31.87 | you comfortless, alone in dreams of hell, but would release your | minds from everything that hides His face from you. His holiness is |
| W1:8.2 | about it at all is therefore to think about illusions. Very few | minds have realized what is actually entailed in picturing the past |
| W1:18.1 | are never neutral or unimportant. It also emphasizes the idea that | minds are joined, which will be given increasing stress later. |
| W1:19.2 | Today we are again emphasizing the fact that | minds are joined. This is rarely a wholly welcome idea at first, |
| W1:30.2 | outside. Instead, we are trying to see in the world what is in our | minds, and what we want to recognize is there. Thus we are trying to |
| W1:43.1 | with God, perception would have replaced knowledge forever in your | minds. With this link with God, perception will become so changed and |

| W1:79.7 | it. We will not assume that we already know. We will try to free our | minds of all the many different kinds of problems that we think we |
| W1:95.16 | one Creator and one goal—to bring awareness of this oneness to all | minds, that true creation may extend the Allness and the Unity of God. |
| W1:100.1 | lives and go their separate ways. One function shared by separate | minds unites them in one purpose, for each one is equally essential |
| W1:100.4 | every light that shines in Heaven, so your joy on earth calls to all | minds to let their sorrows go and take their place beside you in |
| W1:103.2 | is associated then with love, and its results become the heritage of | minds that think what they have made is real. These images, with no |
| W1:104.7 | We clear a holy place within our | minds before His altar, where His gifts of peace and joy are welcome |
| W1:106.11 | truth today. For each five minutes spent in listening, a thousand | minds are opened to the truth. And they will hear the holy Word you |
| W1:108.3 | to heal. This is the light that brings your peace of mind to other | minds, to share it and be glad that they are one with you and with |
| W1:108.5 | to forgive one brother wholly is enough to bring salvation to all | minds. For these are but some special cases of one law which holds |
| W1:109.8 | will be the only thing there is comes closer to all worn and tired | minds, too weary now to go their way alone. And they will hear the |
| W1:110.4 | of your mind from His, no split between your mind and other | minds, and only unity within your own. |
| W1:110.10 | to truth by letting idols go and opening our hands and hearts and | minds to God today. |
| W1:124.2 | How holy are our | minds! And everything we see reflects the holiness within the mind at |
| W1:124.4 | today in recognition and remembrance. We feel Him in our hearts. Our | minds contain His thoughts; our eyes behold His loveliness in all we |
| W1:127.6 | Today we practice making free our | minds of all the laws you think you must obey, of all the limits |
| W1:128.5 | and its phases and its dreams. We hold it purposeless within our | minds and loosen it from all we wish it were. Thus do we lift the |
| W1:130.7 | attempt to bring with us a little part of unreality as we devote our | minds to finding only what is real. |
| W1:131.8 | own existence and attacks itself is not of Him. He did not make two | minds, with Heaven as the glad effect of one and earth the other's |
| W1:133.14 | and without pain. Heaven Itself is reached by empty hands and open | minds, which come with nothing to find everything and claim it as |
| W1:135.10 | conception of the mind as limited and fragile, and apart from other | minds and separate from its Source. |
| W1:135.22 | is all that is required for the truth to dawn upon our | minds with certainty. |
| W1:135.23 | and from every thought which blocks the truth from entering our | minds. Today we will receive instead of plan, that we may give |
| W1:137.8 | is strength. For by its gentle hand is weakness overcome. And | minds which were walled off within a body free to join with other |
| W1:137.8 | minds which were walled off within a body free to join with other | minds, to be forever strong. |
| W1:137.12 | this cannot succeed. Today we ask that only truth will occupy our | minds, that thoughts of healing will this day go forth from what is |
| W1:137.13 | We will remember, as the hour strikes, our function is to let our | minds be healed that we may carry healing to the world, exchanging |
| W1:139.8 | which denies itself in statement? Let us not allow our holy | minds to occupy themselves with senseless musings such as this. We |
| W1:139.10 | minutes in the morning and at night we will devote to dedicate our | minds to our assignment for today. We start with this review of what |
| W1:139.12 | like Him. We can remember it for everyone, for in creation are all | minds as one and in our memory is the recall how dear our brothers |
| W1:140.8 | Today we seek to change our | minds about the source of sickness, for we seek a cure for all |
| W1:140.8 | We will try today to find the source of healing, which is in our | minds because our Father placed it there for us. It is not further |
| W1:140.12 | in our hands to which we cling, with lifted hearts and listening | minds we pray: |
| W1:140.14 | protection and with peace so deep that no illusion can disturb our | minds nor offer proof to us that it is real. This will we learn |
| W1:R4.6 | So do we start each practice period in this review with readying our | minds to understand the lessons that we read and see the meaning |
| W1:151.16 | and joyfully released from guilt. Now do we lift our resurrected | minds in gladness and in gratitude to Him Who has restored our sanity |
| W1:152.12 | spend five minutes practicing its ways, encouraging our frightened | minds with this: |
| W1:153.8 | by because a senseless fragment of a dream happened to cross our | minds, and we mistook the figures in it for the Son of God, its tiny |
| W1:153.13 | quaint and childish thoughts of sin forever from the pure and holy | minds of Heaven's children and the Son of God. We pause but for a |
| W1:154.10 | that we undertake to recognize today. We will not seek to keep our | minds apart from Him Who speaks for us, for it is but our voice we |
| W1:154.15 | The world recedes as we light up our | minds and realize these holy words are true. They are the message |
| W1:154.15 | today from our Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed our | minds about ourselves and what our function is. For as we prove that |
| W1:155.6 | of nor illusion which you bring their eyes to look on and their | minds to grasp. Now can the truth, which walks ahead of you, speak to |
| W1:156.9 | in perfect holiness. I light the world, I light my mind and all the | minds which God created one with me. |
| W1:161.4 | One brother is all brothers. Every mind contains all | minds, for every mind is one. Such is the truth. Yet do these |
| W1:161.6 | Bodies attack but | minds do not. This thought is surely reminiscent of our text, where |
| W1:165.7 | every fear. The thought of Him is still beyond all dreams and in our | minds according to His Will. |
| W1:167.12 | from Which perfection comes to us, remaining always in the holy | minds which He created perfect. As we were, so are we now and will |
| W1:169.2 | state so opposite to everything the world contains that those whose | minds are lighted by the gift of grace cannot believe the world of |
| W1:169.7 | and complete. He recognized all that time holds and gave it to all | minds that each one might determine from a point where time has ended |
| W1:R5.2 | Steady our feet, our Father; let our doubts be quiet and our holy | minds be still, and speak to us. We have no words to give to You. We |
| W1:R5.14 | we surround with it and use the thoughts to hold it up before our | minds and keep it clear in our remembrance throughout the day. And |
| W1:181.3 | great need to let our sinlessness become apparent. We instruct our | minds that it is this we seek and only this, for just a little while. |
| W1:181.6 | such blocks arise, we will transcend them with instructions to our | minds to change their focus, as we say: |
| W1:181.10 | without Its sinlessness. We seek for this remembrance as we turn our | minds to practicing today. We look neither ahead nor backwards. We |
| W1:183.6 | in silence and repeat God's Name along with him within your quiet | minds, you have established there an altar which reaches to God |
| W1:183.7 | our only thought, our only word, the only thing that occupies our | minds, the only wish we have, the only sound with any meaning, and |
| W1:184.12 | the place of Heaven. In our practicing, our purpose is to let our | minds accept what He has given as the answer to the pitiful |
| W1:185.3 | Two | minds with one intent become so strong that what they will becomes |
| W1:185.3 | become so strong that what they will becomes the Will of God. For | minds can only join in truth. In dreams no two can share the same |
| W1:185.4 | must escape the dream, for compromising is the goal of dreaming. | Minds cannot unite in dreams. They merely bargain. And what bargain |
| W1:185.4 | come to take His place. And what He means is lost to sleeping | minds intent on compromise, each to his gain and to another's loss. |
| W1:185.6 | The mind which means that all it wants is peace must join with other | minds, for that is how peace is obtained. And when the wish for peace |
| W1:186.2 | are worthy. What is given us to do we have the strength to do. Our | minds are suited perfectly to take the part assigned to us by One Who |
| W1:188.8 | with God. We will not let them stray. We let the light within our | minds direct them to come home. We have betrayed them, ordering that |
| W1:188.9 | Thus are our | minds restored with them, and we acknowledge that the peace of God |
| W1:189.9 | come. And with this choice we rest. And in our quiet hearts and open | minds His love will blaze its pathway of itself. What has not been |
| W1:192.7 | and fearful thoughts, our eyes shut tight against the light, our | minds engaged in worshipping what is not there. |
| W1:193.10 | say these words when we have understood their power to release all | minds from bondage? These are words which give you power over all |
| W1:199.6 | The Holy Spirit is the home of | minds that seek for freedom. In Him they find what they have sought. |
| W2:I.3 | we will use that thought to introduce our times of rest and calm our | minds at need. Yet we will not content ourselves with simple |
| W2:I.4 | Now do we come to Him with but His Word upon our | minds and hearts. And wait for Him to take the step to us that He has |
| W2:I.8 | His hand has held us up. His thoughts have lit the darkness of our | minds. His Love has called to us unceasingly since time began. |
| W2:I.9 | The memory of God is shimmering across the wide horizons of our | minds. A moment more, and it will rise again. A moment more, and we |
| W2:221.2 | you, and you will hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours. Our | minds are joined. We wait with one intent—to hear our Father's |
| W2:222.2 | Father, we have no words except Your Name upon our lips and in our | minds as we come quietly into Your Presence now and ask to rest with |
| W2:242.2 | And so we give today to You. We come with wholly open | minds. We do not ask for anything that we may think we want. Give us |
| W2:249.2 | Father, we would return our | minds to You. We have betrayed them, held them in a vise of |
| W2:256.1 | dream today. God is our goal; forgiveness is the means by which our | minds return to Him at last. |
| W2:258.1 | All that is needful is to train our | minds to overlook all little, senseless aims and to remember that our |
| W2:258.1 | and to remember that our goal is God. His memory is hidden in our | minds, obscured but by our pointless little goals which offer nothing |
| W2:273.1 | us learn how to dismiss it and return to peace. We need but tell our | minds with certainty, “The stillness of the peace of God is mine,” |
| W2:WISC.3 | and reaches up to God. The Second Coming is the time in which all | minds are given to the hands of Christ, to be returned to Spirit in |
| W2:306.2 | and thankfulness, we come, with empty hands and open hearts and | minds, asking but what You give. We cannot make an offering |
| W2:WICR.4 | Its thought, Its sureness being theirs. God's memory is in our holy | minds, which know their oneness and their unity with their Creator. |
| W2:330.1 | accept forgiveness as our only function. Why should we attack our | minds and give them images of pain? Why should we teach them they are |
| W2:WIE.5 | of Life Itself. And peace will be restored forever to the holy | minds which God created as His Son, His dwelling-place, His joy, His |
| W2:349.2 | we trust in Him to send us miracles to bless the world and heal our | minds as we return to Him. |
| W2:WAI.4 | that hear the Voice of God proclaim the world as sinless. Ours the | minds which join together as we bless the world. And from the oneness |
| W2:WAI.5 | sent to us, we learn that it is written on our hearts. And thus our | minds are changed about the aim for which we came and which we seek |
| W2:FL.3 | And to this purpose let us dedicate our | minds, directing all our thoughts to serve the function of salvation. |

| W2:281.2 | me. And I would not attack the Son He loves, for what He loves is | mine to love as well. |
| W2:282.2 | Father, Your Name is Love, and so is | mine. Such is the truth. And can the truth be changed by merely |

| W2:325.2 | Our Father, Your Ideas reflect the truth, and | mine apart from Yours but make up dreams. Let me behold what only |
| W2:337.1 | for only happiness is given me. What must I do to know all this is | mine? I must accept Atonement for myself and nothing more. God has |
| W2:337.1 | need but accept my Self, my sinlessness, created for me, now already | mine, to feel God's Love protecting me from harm, to understand my |
| W2:338.2 | that You have given me the only Thought which leads me to salvation. | Mine alone will fail and lead me nowhere. But the Thought You gave me |
| W2:343.1 | I am Your Son. I cannot lose, for I can only give. And everything is | mine eternally. |
| W2:349.1 | I have chosen it as the gift I want to give. Father, Your gifts are | mine. Each one that I accept gives me a miracle to give. And giving |

| W1:8.4 | as little investment as possible, search your mind for the usual | minute or so, merely noting the thoughts you find there. Name each |
| W1:10.8 | five practice periods are recommended, each involving no more than a | minute or so of mind searching. It is not recommended that this time |
| W1:10.8 | this time period be extended, and it should be reduced to half a | minute or even less if you experience discomfort. Remember, however, |
| W1:11.2 | eyes and look about, near or far, up or down—anywhere. During the | minute or so to be spent in using the idea, merely repeat it to |
| W1:12.9 | the idea for today. Nor should the practice periods exceed a | minute. You may find even this too long. Terminate the exercises |
| W1:13.4 | which should be done about three or four times for not more than a | minute or so at most each time, are to be practiced in a somewhat |
| W1:14.2 | eyes closed throughout. The mind searching period should be short, a | minute at most. Do not have more than three practice periods with |
| W1:15.7 | not be able to apply the idea to very many things during the | minute or so of practice that is recommended, try to make the |
| W1:15.7 | try to make the selection as random as possible. Less than a | minute will do for the practice periods, if you begin to feel uneasy. |
| W1:16.4 | In applying the idea for today, search your mind for a | minute or so, with eyes closed, and actively seek not to overlook any |
| W1:17.9 | the length of the practice period may be reduced to less than the | minute or so which is otherwise recommended. |
| W1:18.7 | A | minute or so or even less will be sufficient. |
| W1:19.3 | The | minute or so of mind searching which today's exercises require are to |
| W1:21.1 | as they arise. Five practice periods are urged, allowing a full | minute for each. |
| W1:22.3 | Look at the world about you at least five times today, for at least a | minute each time. As your eyes move slowly from one object to |
| W1:23.6 | idea slowly to yourself and then close your eyes and devote about a | minute to searching your mind for as many attack thoughts as occur to |
| W1:26.5 | be attempted for each of them, although the time may be reduced to a | minute if the discomfort is too great. Do not reduce it further. |
| W1:28.7 | We will have six two | minute practice periods today in which the idea for the day is stated |
| W1:33.5 | the instant you are aware of distress. It may be necessary to take a | minute or so to sit quietly and repeat the idea to yourself several |
| W1:37.4 | begin with the repetition of the idea for today followed by a | minute or so of looking about you as you apply the idea to whatever |
| W1:45.12 | to understand the holiness of the mind that thinks with God. Take a | minute or two as you repeat the idea throughout the day to appreciate |
| W1:46.3 | idea to yourself, as usual. Close your eyes as you do so and spend a | minute or two in searching your mind for those whom you have not |
| W1:47.4 | your eyes and begin as usual by repeating today's idea. Then spend a | minute or two in searching for situations in your life which you have |
| W1:48.2 | any situation. It is strongly recommended, however, that you take a | minute or so whenever possible to close your eyes and repeat the idea |
| W1:61.5 | should be undertaken today, although each one need not exceed a | minute or two. They should begin with telling yourself: |
| W1:62.7 | Then devote a | minute or two to considering your function and the happiness and |
| W1:63.5 | probably find it easier to let related thoughts come to you in the | minute or two which you should devote to considering this. Do not, |
| W1:65.8 | thoughts will become harder to find. Try, however, to continue a | minute or so longer, attempting to catch a few of the idle thoughts |
| W1:66.16 | It will not take more than a | minute, and probably less, to repeat these words slowly and think |
| W1:72.20 | Then wait a | minute or so in silence, preferably with your eyes closed, and listen |
| W1:74.15 | Then try to find what you are seeking. A | minute or two every half-hour, with eyes closed if possible, would be |
| W1:93.14 | Then try to devote at least a | minute or so to closing your eyes and realizing that this is a |
| W1:96.9 | by Him Who speaks to you from your One Self. Our hourly five | minute practicing will be a search for Him within your mind. |
| W1:97.4 | the miracle in which all time stands still; the miracle in which a | minute spent in using these ideas becomes a time which has no length |
| W1:100.7 | happy face. We will prepare ourselves for this today in our five | minute practice periods by feeling happiness arise in us according to |
| W1:102.7 | Love created him as loving as Himself. Besides these hourly five | minute rests, pause frequently today to tell yourself that you have |
| W1:107.2 | How it would feel? Try to remember when there was a time—perhaps a | minute, maybe even less—when nothing came to interrupt your peace; |
| W1:110.6 | For your five | minute practice periods, begin with this quotation from the text: |
| W1:122.13 | firmly in your mind by your attempts to think of them at least a | minute as each quarter of an hour passes by. |
| W1:124.9 | upon your mind. This half an hour will be framed in gold, with every | minute like a diamond set around the mirror that this exercise will |
| W1:132.16 | Begin the 15 | minute periods in which we practice twice today with this: |
| W1:137.13 | pain for joy, and separation for the peace of God. Is not a | minute of the hour worth the giving to receive a gift like this? Is |
| W1:140.14 | today. And we will say our prayer for healing hourly and take a | minute as the hour strikes to hear the answer to our prayer be given |
| W1:153.16 | to be faithful to the will we share with God. At times, perhaps, a | minute, even less, will be the most that we can offer as the hour |
| W1:193.14 | to you more quickly. Do not try to hold it off another day, another | minute, or another instant. Time was made for this. Use it today for |
| W2:232.1 | when I wake and shine on me throughout the day today. Let every | minute be a time in which I dwell with You. And let me not forget my |
| M:16.4 | as soon as possible after waking, take your quiet time, continuing a | minute or two after you begin to find it difficult. You may find that |
| M:16.11 | works. All through his training, every day and hour, and even every | minute and second, must God's teachers learn to recognize the forms |

| W1:I.2 | The exercises are very simple. They do not require more than a few | minutes, and it does not matter where or when you do them. They need |
| W1:24.3 | more helpful than a more cursory examination of a large number. Two | minutes are suggested for each of the mind searching periods which |
| W1:25.6 | Six practice periods, each of two | minutes duration, are required. Each practice period should begin |
| W1:26.5 | practice periods are required in applying today's idea. A full two | minutes should be attempted for each of them, although the time may |

| W1:31.2 | today are needed, one in the morning and one at night. Three to five | minutes for each of them are recommended. During that time, look |
| W1:32.4 | For the two longer practice periods, three to five | minutes are recommended, with not less than three required. More than |
| W1:33.1 | of the world in both its outer and inner aspects. A full five | minutes should be devoted to the morning and evening application. |

| W1:38.4 | four longer practice periods, each preferably to last a full five | minutes, repeat the idea for today, close your eyes, and then search |
| W1:39.5 | A full five | minutes are urged for the four longer practice periods for today. |
| W1:40.1 | today, but very frequent short ones are necessary. Once every ten | minutes would be highly desirable, and you are urged to attempt this |
| W1:41.5 | soon as you get up if possible, sit quietly for some three to five | minutes with your eyes closed. At the beginning of the practice |
| W1:44.4 | at least three practice periods today, each lasting three to five | minutes. A longer time is highly recommended, but only if you find |
| W1:50.4 | For ten | minutes twice today, morning and evening, let the idea for today sink |
| W1:R1.2 | them, though each one should be practiced at least once. Devote two | minutes or more to each practice period, thinking about the idea and |
| W1:64.9 | At least once devote ten or 15 | minutes to reflecting on this with closed eyes. Related thoughts will |

| W1:65.2 | Today and for a number of days to follow, set aside ten to 15 | minutes for a more sustained practice period in which you try to |
| W1:67.2 | We will begin by repeating this truth about you and then spend a few | minutes adding some relevant thoughts, such as: |
| W1:69.2 | this in our more extended practice period, let us devote several | minutes in thinking about what we are trying to do. We are literally |
| W1:70.7 | practice periods today, each of which should last some ten to 15 | minutes. We will, however, still let you decide when to undertake |
| W1:70.10 | Then devote a few | minutes with your eyes closed to reviewing some of the external |
| W1:74.5 | Then spend several | minutes in adding some related thoughts, such as: |
| W1:R2.2 | longer practice periods will follow this general form: take about 15 | minutes for each of them, and begin by thinking about the idea and |
| W1:R2.2 | which are included in the assignments. Devote about three or four | minutes to reading them over slowly, several times if you wish, and |
| W1:91.5 | Three times today, set aside about ten | minutes for a quiet time in which you try to leave your weakness |
| W1:91.10 | a body, what are you? Ask this in honesty, and then devote several | minutes to allowing your mistaken thoughts about your attributes to |
| W1:92.10 | Let us give 20 | minutes twice today to join this meeting. Let yourself be brought |
| W1:93.8 | today, which would be most profitable if done for the first five | minutes of every waking hour, we will begin by stating the truth |
| W1:93.12 | You may not be willing or even able to use the first five | minutes of each hour for these exercises. Try, however, to do so when |
| W1:94.3 | Today we will again devote the first five | minutes of each waking hour to the attempt to feel the truth in you. |
| W1:94.7 | If you do not meet the requirement of practicing for the first five | minutes of every hour, at least remind yourself hourly: |
| W1:95.4 | The use of the first five | minutes of every waking hour for practicing the idea for the day has |
| W1:95.7 | We will therefore keep to the five | minutes an hour practice periods for a while and urge you to omit as |
| W1:95.7 | while and urge you to omit as few as possible. Using the first five | minutes of the hour will be particularly helpful since it imposes |
| W1:96.16 | it will yet be yours in full awareness. Every time you spend five | minutes of the hour seeking Him Who joins your mind and Self, you |
| W1:97.3 | nearer at least; sometimes a thousand years or more are saved. The | minutes which you give are multiplied over and over, for the miracle |
| W1:97.4 | a time which has no length and which has no end. Give, then, these | minutes willingly, and count on Him Who promised to lay timelessness |
| W1:97.5 | Give Him the | minutes which He needs today to help you understand with Him you are |
| W1:97.6 | The Holy Spirit will be glad to take five | minutes of each hour from your hands and carry them around this |
| W1:98.5 | Is it not worth five | minutes of your time each hour to be able to accept the happiness |
| W1:98.5 | to accept the happiness that God has given you? Is it not worth five | minutes hourly to recognize your special function here? Is not five |
| W1:98.5 | minutes hourly to recognize your special function here? Is not five | minutes of the hour but a small request to make in terms of a reward |
| W1:98.7 | Each hour today give Him your tiny gift of but five | minutes. He will give the words you use in practicing today's idea |
| W1:98.10 | In each five | minutes that you spend with Him, He will accept your words and give |
| W1:98.12 | hour, let your time be spent in happy preparation for the next five | minutes you will spend again with Him. Repeat today's idea while you |
| W1:99.18 | you are one. Remind yourself of this between the times you give five | minutes to be shared with Him Who shares God's plan with you. Remind |
| W1:101.9 | joy these thoughts will introduce into your mind. Give these five | minutes gladly to remove the heavy load you laid upon yourself with |
| W1:104.4 | Our longer practice periods today, the hourly five | minutes given truth for your salvation, should begin with this: |
| W1:105.11 | Spend your five | minutes thus with Him each time you can today, but do not think that |
| W1:106.11 | Be still and listen to the truth today. For each five | minutes spent in listening, a thousand minds are opened to the truth. |
| W1:107.14 | the world. They will increase with every gift you give of five small | minutes, and the errors that surround the world will be corrected as |
| W1:108.10 | Then close your eyes, and for five | minutes think of what you would hold out to everyone to have it |
| W1:109.8 | With each five | minutes that you rest today the world is nearer waking. And the time |
| W1:R3.5 | The format you should use for these reviews is this: devote five | minutes twice a day, or longer if you would prefer, to considering |
| W1:R3.8 | We emphasize the benefits to you if you devote the first five | minutes of the day to your review and also give the last five minutes |
| W1:R3.8 | five minutes of the day to your review and also give the last five | minutes of your waking day to it. If this cannot be done, at least |
| W1:121.8 | key to happiness and use it on your own behalf. We will devote ten | minutes in the morning and at night another ten to learning how to |
| W1:123.7 | Receive His thanks and offer yours to Him for 15 | minutes twice today. And you will realize to Whom you offer thanks, |
| W1:125.7 | Three times today, at times most suitable for silence, give ten | minutes set apart from listening to the world and choose instead a |
| W1:126.9 | Give 15 | minutes twice today to the attempt to understand today's idea. It is |
| W1:127.7 | and understand there is no better use for time than this. For 15 | minutes twice today escape from every law in which you now believe. |
| W1:128.7 | Give it ten | minutes rest three times today. And when your eyes are opened |
| W1:129.7 | Practice your willingness to make this change ten | minutes in the morning and at night and once more in between. Begin |
| W1:130.7 | Six times today in thanks and gratitude we gladly give five | minutes to the thought which ends all compromise and doubt and go |
| W1:130.8 | is you seek. You do not want illusions. And you come to these five | minutes emptying your hands of all the petty treasures of this world. |
| W1:131.11 | the truth, and it is truth we ask to reach today. We will devote ten | minutes to this goal three times today, and we will ask to see the |
| W1:131.14 | For several | minutes watch your mind and see, although your eyes are closed, the |
| W1:133.15 | Our two extended practice periods of 15 | minutes will begin with this: |
| W1:135.23 | For 15 | minutes twice today, we rest from senseless planning and from every |
| W1:137.14 | for such a gift. And so we will begin the day with this and give ten | minutes to these thoughts with which we will conclude today at night |
| W1:138.11 | We make the choice for Heaven as we wake and spend five | minutes making sure that we have made the one decision that is sane. |
| W1:138.12 | we have made each hour in between. And now we give the last five | minutes of our waking day to the decision with which we awoke. As |
| W1:139.10 | Five | minutes in the morning and at night we will devote to dedicate our |
| W1:139.13 | all thoughts that would distract us from our holy aim. For several | minutes let your mind be cleared of all the foolish cobwebs which the |
| W1:140.11 | We waken hearing Him and let Him speak to us five | minutes as the day begins and end the day by listening again five |
| W1:140.11 | minutes as the day begins and end the day by listening again five | minutes more before we go to sleep. Our only preparation is to let |

| W1:153.15 | giving our attention to the daily thought as long as possible. Five | minutes now becomes the least we give to preparation for a day in |

| Tx:2.16 | you are free. Whatever lies you may believe are of no concern to the | miracle, which can heal any of them with equal ease. It makes no |
| Tx:2.23 | involve, however, the very powerful use of the denial of errors. The | miracle worker is one who accepts my kind of denial and projection, |
| Tx:2.41 | to his return. In this sense the Atonement saves time but, like the | miracle which serves it, does not abolish it. As long as there is |
| Tx:2.43 | The | miracle turns the defense of Atonement to the protection of the inner |
| Tx:2.52 | The emphasis will now be on healing. The | miracle is the means, the Atonement is the principle, and healing is |
| Tx:2.52 | is the principle, and healing is the result. Those who speak of “a | miracle of healing” are combining two orders of reality |
| Tx:2.52 | combining two orders of reality inappropriately. Healing is not a | miracle. The Atonement or the final miracle is a remedy, while any |
| Tx:2.52 | Healing is not a miracle. The Atonement or the final | miracle is a remedy, while any type of healing is a result. The kind |

| Tx:2.58 | state. If they are inappropriately exposed to an “undiluted” | miracle, they may be precipitated into panic. This is particularly |
| Tx:2.59 | is most helpful to the receiver[, not the giver]. This means that a | miracle, to attain its full efficacy, must be expressed in a language |
| Tx:2.59 | of communication of which he is capable now. The whole aim of the | miracle is to raise the level of communication, not to impose |
| Tx:2.60 | Before | miracle workers are ready to undertake their function in this world, |
| Tx:2.63 | We have already said that the | miracle is an expression of miracle-mindedness. Miracle-mindedness |
| Tx:2.63 | it. The right-minded neither exalt nor depreciate the mind of the | miracle worker or the miracle receiver. However, as a creative act, |
| Tx:2.63 | neither exalt nor depreciate the mind of the miracle worker or the | miracle receiver. However, as a creative act, the miracle need not |
| Tx:2.63 | worker or the miracle receiver. However, as a creative act, the | miracle need not await the right-mindedness of the receiver. In fact, |
| Tx:2.63 | to restore him to his right mind. It is essential, however, that the | miracle worker be in his right mind or he will be unable to |
| Tx:2.64 | his readiness but maintains a consistent trust in mine. If your | miracle working propensities are not functioning properly, it is |
| Tx:2.64 | the result of refusal to accept the Atonement for yourself. If the | miracle worker does accept it, he places himself in a position to |
| Tx:2.65 | The sole responsibility of the | miracle worker is to accept the Atonement for himself. This means |
| Tx:2.65 | and that their miscreations cannot hurt them. By affirming this, the | miracle worker releases the mind from over-evaluating its own |
| Tx:2.71 | levels. We said before that only revelation transcends time. The | miracle, as an expression of true human charity, can only shorten |
| Tx:2.71 | most. It must be understood, however, that whenever a man offers a | miracle to another, he is shortening the suffering of both. This |
| Tx:2.87 | We have emphasized that the | miracle, or the expression of Atonement, is always a sign of real |
| Tx:2.93 | even then. You may feel at this point that it would take a | miracle to enable you to do this, which is perfectly true. |
| Tx:2.94 | miraculous thinking, but they can be trained to think that way. All | miracle workers need that kind of training. I cannot let them leave |
| Tx:2.94 | leave their minds unguarded, or they will not be able to help me. | Miracle working entails a full realization of the power of thought |
| Tx:2.94 | the power of thought and real avoidance of miscreation. Otherwise, a | miracle will be necessary to set the mind itself straight, a circular |
| Tx:2.94 | process which would hardly foster the time collapse for which the | miracle was intended. Nor would it induce the healthy respect for |
| Tx:2.94 | it induce the healthy respect for true cause and effect which every | miracle worker must have. |
| Tx:2.95 | [Miracles cannot free the | miracle worker from fear.] Both miracles and fear come from thoughts, |
| Tx:2.95 | one, you would also not be free to choose the other. By choosing the | miracle, you have rejected fear. You have been afraid of God, of me, |
| Tx:2.96 | for the whole content of the unconscious which lies above the | miracle level. All psychoanalytic theorists have made some |
| Tx:2.107 | We have frequently noted that the | miracle is a device for shortening but not abolishing time. If a |
| Tx:3.4 | 1. The | miracle abolishes the need for lower-order concerns. Since it is an |
| Tx:3.4 | considerations of time and space do not apply. When you perform a | miracle, I will arrange both time and space to adjust to it. |
| Tx:3.6 | any form of miscreation with anything except a desire to heal (or a | miracle) is an expression of this confusion. |
| Tx:3.7 | 4. The | miracle is always a denial of this error and an affirmation of the |
| Tx:3.8 | 5. The level-adjustment power of the | miracle induces the right perception for healing. Until this has |
| Tx:3.10 | “Do this in remembrance of me” is the request for cooperation from | miracle workers. It should be noted that the two statements are not |
| Tx:3.27 | also has the disastrous effect of denying the creative power of the | miracle. |
| Tx:3.28 | The | miracle perceives everything as it is. If nothing but the truth |
| Tx:3.29 | your own validation of their truth. This is the healing which the | miracle actively fosters. |
| Tx:3.31 | different interpretations, and this means that it is not whole. The | miracle is a way of perceiving, not of knowing. It is the right |
| Tx:3.32 | Questioning illusions is the first step in undoing them. The | miracle, or the “right answer,” corrects them. Since perceptions |
| Tx:3.34 | of right perception, which brings it into the proper domain of the | miracle. Properly speaking, “a vision of God” is a miracle rather |
| Tx:3.34 | domain of the miracle. Properly speaking, “a vision of God” is a | miracle rather than a revelation. The fact that perception is |
| Tx:3.39 | there is an unconscious level which properly consists only of the | miracle ability and which should be under my direction. There is also |
| Tx:3.43 | is miraculous because it heals misperception, and this is indeed a | miracle in view of how man perceives himself. |
| Tx:3.56 | perceiving. He has lost the knowledge that he himself is a | miracle. Miraculous creation was his Source and also his real |
| Tx:3.58 | but know yourself, and your knowledge is complete. To know God's | miracle is to know Him. |
| Tx:3.60 | in different lights. Know yourself in the One Light where the | miracle that is you is perfectly clear. |
| Tx:4.102 | individual willingness to share in it. The truly helpful are God's | miracle workers whom I direct until we are all united in the joy of |
| Tx:5.17 | because it is very similar to the shift in time perception which the | miracle introduces. The Holy Spirit is the motivation for |
| Tx:5.18 | as long as there is time. It is partly His and partly yours. The | miracle itself is just this fusion or union of will between Father |
| Tx:5.33 | to be aware of the Holy Spirit either in himself or in you for this | miracle to occur. |
| Tx:5.68 | are really reacting irresponsibly. If the sole responsibility of the | miracle worker is to accept the Atonement for himself, and I assure |
| Tx:6.62 | the body cannot heal the mind, then the mind must be stronger. Every | miracle demonstrates this. |
| Tx:7.94 | not whole. A split mind cannot perceive its fullness and needs the | miracle of its wholeness to dawn upon it and heal it. This reawakens |
| Tx:7.97 | awareness that your identification is maintained by extension. The | miracle is a lesson in total perception. By including any part of |
| Tx:7.106 | you are. But if your joy is what you are], you are denying joy. The | miracle is therefore a lesson in what joy is. Being a lesson in |
| Tx:7.106 | a lesson in sharing, it is a lesson in love, which is joy. Every | miracle is thus a lesson in truth, and by offering truth you are |
| Tx:9.27 | That is how perception ultimately is translated into knowledge. The | miracle worker begins by perceiving light and translates his |
| Tx:9.36 | to your reality which you can recognize. You cannot perform a | miracle for yourself, because miracles are a way of giving acceptance |
| Tx:9.50 | and grandiosity, because it does not know the difference between | miracle impulses and ego-alien beliefs of its own. We once said that |
| Tx:9.91 | The | miracle is the act of a Son of God who has laid aside all false gods |
| Tx:9.91 | a call to Him which is strengthened by this joining. Because the | miracle worker has heard Him, he strengthens His Voice in a sick |
| Tx:10.17 | in your willingness to join them is your healing accomplished. Every | miracle which you accomplish speaks to you of the Fatherhood of God. |
| Tx:12.48 | by doing so, you are aligning past and future and not allowing the | miracle, which could intervene between them, to free you to be born |
| Tx:12.49 | The | miracle enables you to see your brother without his past and so |
| Tx:13.3 | is merely a faulty formulation of reality with no effect at all. The | miracle, without a function in Heaven, is needful here. Aspects of |
| Tx:13.5 | This is the | miracle of creation; that it is one forever. Every miracle you offer |
| Tx:13.5 | This is the miracle of creation; that it is one forever. Every | miracle you offer to the Son of God is but the true perception of one |
| Tx:13.6 | them unto His Father as they were offered unto Him. There is one | miracle, as there is one reality. And every miracle you do contains |
| Tx:13.6 | unto Him. There is one miracle, as there is one reality. And every | miracle you do contains them all, as every aspect of reality you see |
| Tx:13.6 | reality you see blends quietly into the One Reality of God. The only | miracle that ever was is God's most holy Son, created in the One |
| Tx:13.8 | of God the Father. The holy light you saw outside yourself in every | miracle you offered to your brothers will be returned to you. And |
| Tx:13.9 | here, and you deny the witnesses to] your fatherhood in Heaven. The | miracle which God created is perfect, as are the miracles which you |
| Tx:13.69 | The | miracle teaches you that you have chosen guiltlessness, freedom, and |
| Tx:14.9 | The | miracle acknowledges the guiltlessness which must have been denied to |
| Tx:14.47 | is not true that anything without order of difficulty can occur. The | miracle, therefore, has a unique function and is motivated by a |
| Tx:14.47 | Teacher, Who brings the laws of another world to this one. The | miracle is the one thing you can do that transcends order, being |
| Tx:14.48 | to grasp is the lack of order of difficulty which stamps the | miracle as something that must come from elsewhere, not from here. |
| Tx:14.51 | The | miracle offers exactly the same response to every call for help. It |
| Tx:14.51 | simple. The power of God, and not of you, engenders miracles. The | miracle itself is but the witness that you have the power of God in |
| Tx:14.51 | that you have the power of God in you. That is the reason why the | miracle gives equal blessing to all who share in it, and that is also |
| Tx:14.57 | The | miracle is the recognition that this is true. Where there is love, |
| Tx:14.57 | identity. We have already learned that this identity is shared. The | miracle becomes the means of sharing it. By supplying your identity |
| Tx:14.57 | holds for him. Nor will the power of all His love be absent from any | miracle you offer to His Son. How, then, can there be any order of |
| Tx:14.67 | He cannot change Himself, for your identity is changeless. The | miracle acknowledges His changelessness by seeing His Son as he |
| Tx:14.67 | His Son as he always was and not as he would make himself. The | miracle brings the effects which only guiltlessness can bring and |
| Tx:14.69 | you? You have no problems which He cannot solve by offering you a | miracle. Miracles are for you. And every fear or pain or trial you |
| Tx:14.69 | therefore binds not you. He does not see time as you do. And each | miracle He offers you corrects your use of time and makes it His. |
| Tx:14.70 | and works through you. And all His works are yours. He offers you a | miracle with every one you let Him do through you. |
| Tx:14.71 | silence, and do not raise your voice against Him. For He teaches the | miracle of oneness, and before His lesson division disappears. Teach |
| Tx:14.71 | you will remember that you have always created like your Father. The | miracle of creation has never ceased, having the holy stamp of |
| Tx:15.15 | for you in that shining instant of perfect release. Offer the | miracle of the holy instant through the Holy Spirit and leave His |
| Tx:16.10 | that demonstrates you did not do them. Why should you worry how the | miracle extends to all the Sonship when you do not understand the |
| Tx:16.10 | miracle extends to all the Sonship when you do not understand the | miracle itself? One attribute is no more difficult to understand than |
| Tx:16.12 | To you the | miracle cannot seem natural because what you have done to hurt your |
| Tx:16.15 | and to the One Who speaks for Him. For His task is to translate the | miracle into the knowledge which it represents and which is lost to |
| Tx:16.15 | it represents and which is lost to you. Let His understanding of the | miracle be enough for you, and do not turn away from all the |
| Tx:16.17 | is weakness and attack is power. Should not this be a sufficient | miracle to teach you that your Teacher is not of you? But remember |
| Tx:16.80 | the holy instant, where all illusions are forgiven. From there the | miracle extends to bless everyone and to resolve all problems, be |
| Tx:17.69 | with it. The goal's reality will call forth and accomplish every | miracle needed for its fulfillment. Nothing too small or too |
| Tx:18.33 | that you must achieve the state its coming brings with it. The | miracle of the holy instant lies in your willingness to let it be |
| Tx:18.35 | the learner, nor can you make him different. Would you first make a | miracle yourself and then expect one to be made for you? |
| Tx:18.64 | happen for more than an instant, yet it is in this instant that the | miracle of Atonement happens. Afterwards, you will see the body |
| Tx:19.14 | faithlessness aside and come to it together. There will you see the | miracle of your relationship as it was made again through faith. And |
| Tx:19.14 | forgive. No error interferes with its calm sight, which brings the | miracle of healing with equal ease to all of them. For what the |
| Tx:19.44 | is no more difficult than to surmount your little wall. For in the | miracle of your relationship, without this barrier, is every miracle |
| Tx:19.44 | in the miracle of your relationship, without this barrier, is every | miracle contained. There is no order of difficulty in miracles, for |
| Tx:19.44 | His holy purpose, for it is yours. But let Him quietly extend the | miracle of your relationship to everyone contained in it, as it was |
| Tx:19.45 | you be kept by shadows from the light in which illusions end. Every | miracle is but the end of an illusion. Such was the journey; such its |
| Tx:19.87 | God and you. In its tiny hands, it holds in perfect safety every | miracle you will perform, held out to you. The miracle of life is |
| Tx:19.87 | perfect safety every miracle you will perform, held out to you. The | miracle of life is ageless, born in time but nourished in eternity. |
| Tx:20.37 | time, and with each joining is the end of time brought nearer. Each | miracle of joining is a mighty herald of eternity. No one who has a |
| Tx:21.12 | of the Son of God, remembering who he is they sing of. What is a | miracle but this remembering? And who is there in whom this memory |
| Tx:21.64 | brother nor yourself can be attacked alone. But neither can accept a | miracle instead without the other being blessed by it and healed of |
| Tx:22.43 | hope and freedom and release from suffering to everyone who needs a | miracle to save him. |
| Tx:22.44 | How easy is it to offer this | miracle to everyone! No one who has received it for himself could |
| Tx:23.52 | When it occurs, leave not your place on high but quickly choose a | miracle instead of murder. And God Himself and all the lights of |
| Tx:25.83 | more and others less? And is this justice to the wholly innocent? A | miracle is justice. It is not a special gift to some to be withheld |
| Tx:25.85 | you will feel denied. Seek to deprive, and you have been deprived. A | miracle can never be received because another could receive it not. |
| Tx:25.86 | sole responsibility must be to take forgiveness for yourself. The | miracle that you receive, you give. Each one becomes an illustration |
| Tx:25.87 | Each | miracle is an example of what justice can accomplish when it is |
| Tx:26.13 | The | miracle of justice can correct all errors. Every problem is an error. |
| Tx:26.14 | you have made it great and past the hope of healing. You deny the | miracle of justice can be fair. |
| Tx:26.15 | no sacrifice of him because you could not will he suffer loss. The | miracle of justice you call forth will rest on you as surely as on |
| Tx:26.28 | one teaches him that what he fear[s,] he loves the most. What but a | miracle could change his mind, so that he understands that love |
| Tx:26.28 | mind, so that he understands that love cannot be feared? What other | miracle is there but this? And what else need there be to make the |
| Tx:26.56 | Which holds all things within Itself? There is no sin. And every | miracle is possible the instant that the Son of God perceives his |
| Tx:26.57 | that anything be lost if what you have is what you are. This is the | miracle by which creation became your function, sharing it with God. |
| Tx:26.61 | The | miracle is possible when cause and consequence are brought together, |
| Tx:26.62 | to all illusions that were made another purpose that would justify a | miracle, whatever form they took. In every miracle all healing lies, |
| Tx:26.62 | that would justify a miracle, whatever form they took. In every | miracle all healing lies, for God gave answer to them all as one. And |
| Tx:26.63 | The | miracle but calls your ancient name, which you will recognize because |
| Tx:26.67 | refuse to answer when He has already answered all who call on Him? A | miracle can make no change at all. But it can make what always has |
| Tx:26.72 | this, is it protected and kept separate from healing. For a | miracle is now. It stands already here in present grace, within the |
| Tx:26.84 | Christ, and ancient scars are healed within His sight. An ancient | miracle has come to bless and to replace an ancient enmity that came |
| Tx:27.16 | and yourself. A broken body shows the mind has not been healed. A | miracle of healing proves that separation is without effect. What you |
| Tx:27.17 | a thousand tongues. For here is his forgiveness proved to him. A | miracle can offer nothing less to him than it has given unto you. So |
| Tx:27.18 | Thus does the | miracle undo all things the world attests can never be undone. And |
| Tx:27.19 | and you are healed because you wished him well. This is the law the | miracle obeys; that healing sees no specialness at all. It does not |
| Tx:27.44 | The only way to heal is to be healed. The | miracle extends without your help, but you are needed that it can |
| Tx:27.44 | without your help, but you are needed that it can begin. Accept the | miracle of healing, and it will go forth because of what it is. It is |
| Tx:27.46 | are gently lifted up and comforted. There is no sadness where a | miracle has come to heal. And nothing more than just one instant of |
| Tx:27.57 | He sends a witness to your life in Him Who knows no death. Each | miracle He brings is witness that the body is not real. Its pains and |
| Tx:27.58 | The | miracle makes no distinctions in the names by which sin's witnesses |
| Tx:27.58 | called your suffering. It is no longer there. The One Who brings the | miracle perceived them all as one and called by name of fear. As fear |
| Tx:27.58 | and called by name of fear. As fear is witness unto death, so is the | miracle the witness unto life. It is a witness no one can deny, for |
| Tx:27.58 | brings. The dying live, the dead arise, and pain has vanished. Yet a | miracle speaks not but for itself, but what it represents. |
| Tx:27.59 | Love, too, has symbols in a world of sin. The | miracle forgives because it stands for what is past forgiveness and |
| Tx:27.59 | forgiveness and is true. How foolish and insane it is to think a | miracle is bound by laws which it came solely to undo! The laws of |
| Tx:27.59 | cry for help within a world of misery. It is their sameness that the | miracle attests. It is their sameness that it proves. |
| Tx:27.60 | different are dissolved and shown as powerless. The purpose of a | miracle is to accomplish this. And God Himself has guaranteed the |
| Tx:27.60 | strength of miracles for what they witness to. Be witnesses unto the | miracle and not the laws of sin. There is no need to suffer any more. |
| Tx:28.1 | The | miracle does nothing. All it does is to undo. And thus it cancels out |
| Tx:28.1 | the mind that thought of them and loved them for a little while. The | miracle but shows the past is gone, and what has truly gone has no |
| Tx:28.9 | consequences which were causeless and could never be effects. The | miracle reminds you of a Cause forever present, perfectly untouched |
| Tx:28.10 | lost. You need no healing to be healed. In quietness, see in the | miracle a lesson in allowing Cause to have Its own effects and doing |
| Tx:28.11 | The | miracle comes quietly into the mind that stops an instant and is |
| Tx:28.11 | be. Born out of sharing, there can be no pause in time to cause the | miracle delay in hastening to all unquiet minds and bringing them an |
| Tx:28.19 | The | miracle does not awaken you but merely shows you who the dreamer is. |
| Tx:28.20 | to be the victim and the sufferer. These are the happy dreams the | miracle exchanges for your own. It does not ask you make another— |
| Tx:28.22 | The | miracle establishes you dream a dream and that its content is not |
| Tx:28.22 | not his own attack, and he is innocent of what he caused. The | miracle does nothing but to show him that he has done nothing. What |
| Tx:28.24 | step is an effect of what has gone before, appearing as a cause. The | miracle is the first step in giving back to cause the function of |
| Tx:28.25 | Like every lesson which the Holy Spirit requests you learn, the | miracle is clear. It demonstrates what He would have you learn and |
| Tx:28.26 | The | miracle returns the cause of fear to you who made it. But it also |
| Tx:28.26 | of what it made. Yet half the lesson will not teach the whole. The | miracle is useless if you learn but that the body can be healed, for |
| Tx:28.28 | steps to be directed up the ladder separation led you down. The | miracle alone is your concern at present. Here is where we must |
| Tx:28.28 | rising up to waking and the ending of the dream. When you accept a | miracle, you do not add your dream of fear to one that is already |
| Tx:28.30 | The | miracle does nothing just because the minds are joined and cannot |
| Tx:28.33 | the bridge, but only in the space left clean and vacant by the | miracle. The seeds of sickness and the shame of [sin] He cannot |
| Tx:28.33 | and clutch them not with eager hands, to keep them for yourself. The | miracle will brush them all aside and thus make room for Him Who |
| Tx:28.35 | in forgiveness lies and gently shows you that you never sinned. The | miracle would leave no proof of guilt to bring you witness to what |
| Tx:28.35 | before them there. And they will meet with your invited Guests the | miracle has asked to come to you. |
| Tx:28.44 | share not your brother's evil dream, this is the picture that the | miracle will place within the little gap, left clean of all the seeds |
| Tx:28.46 | go is all the Healer of God's Son requires. He will place the | miracle of healing where the seeds of sickness were. And there will |
| Tx:29.11 | And being healed, the power to heal must also now be yours. The | miracle is not a separate thing which happens suddenly, as an effect |
| Tx:29.25 | are not true. Their equal lack of truth becomes the basis for the | miracle, which means that you have understood that dreams are dreams |
| Tx:29.25 | if you want to live in dreams or to awaken from them. Thus it is the | miracle does not select some dreams to leave untouched by its |
| Tx:29.26 | form can change, but they cannot be made of something else. The | miracle were treacherous indeed if it allowed you still to be afraid |
| Tx:29.26 | the fear. You would not then be willing to awake, for which the | miracle prepares the way. |
| Tx:29.27 | veils the heavy lump of fear which is their core. And it is this the | miracle perceives, and not the wrappings in which it is bound. |
| Tx:29.56 | Its life and power are its believer's gift, and this is what the | miracle restores to what has life and power worthy of the gift of |
| Tx:29.56 | life and power worthy of the gift of Heaven and eternal peace. The | miracle does not restore the truth, the light the veil between has |
| Tx:30.74 | Forgiveness recognized as merited will heal. It gives the | miracle its strength to overlook illusions. This is how you learn |
| Tx:30.74 | possible could there be some appearances which could withstand the | miracle and not be healed by it. |
| Tx:30.76 | It must be true the | miracle can heal all forms of sickness, or it cannot heal. Its |
| Tx:30.77 | this and being glad there cannot be some forms of sickness which the | miracle must lack the power to heal. |
| Tx:30.90 | The | miracle is means to demonstrate that all appearances can change |
| Tx:30.90 | appearances and cannot have the changelessness reality entails. The | miracle attests salvation from appearances by showing they can |
| Tx:30.90 | from all forms of lack, and safety from disaster of all kinds. The | miracle is proof he is not bound by loss or suffering in any form |
| Tx:30.91 | reality. Temptation, then, is nothing more than this—a prayer the | miracle touch not some dreams but keep their unreality obscure and |
| Tx:30.91 | reality instead. And Heaven gives no answer to the prayer, nor can a | miracle be given you to heal appearances you do not like. You have |
| Tx:30.92 | there must be some appearances beyond the hope of change is that the | miracle cannot come forth from you consistently. For you have asked |
| Tx:30.92 | have asked it be withheld from power to heal all dreams. There is no | miracle you cannot have when you desire healing. But there is no |
| Tx:30.92 | no miracle you cannot have when you desire healing. But there is no | miracle that can be given you unless you want it. Choose what you |
| Tx:30.93 | Because reality is changeless is a | miracle already there to heal all things that change and offer them |
| Tx:30.94 | of him. There is no false appearance but will fade if you request a | miracle instead. There is no pain from which he is not free if you |
| Tx:31.92 | form wherever it occurs but disappear as mists before the sun. A | miracle has come to heal God's Son and close the door upon his dreams |
| W1:78.1 | that each decision that you make is one between a grievance and a | miracle. Each grievance stands like a dark shield of hate before the |

| W1:124.6 | No | miracle can ever be denied to those who know that they are one with |

| M:7.3 | is really meant by the statement that the one responsibility of the | miracle worker is to accept the Atonement for himself. The teacher of |
| M:7.3 | is to accept the Atonement for himself. The teacher of God is a | miracle worker because he gives the gifts he has received. Yet he |
| M:7.4 | This is the certainty that gives God's teachers the power to be | miracle workers, for they have put their trust in Him. |
| M:18.5 | When this has been accomplished, the teacher of God becomes a | miracle worker by definition. His sins have been forgiven him, and he |

| Tx:1.17 | 17. | Miracles are the transcendence of the body. They are sudden shifts |

| Tx:1.36 | Miracles come from the below or subconscious level. Revelations come | |

| Tx:1.39 | 29. | Miracles are a way of earning release from fear. |
| Tx:1.40 | Revelation induces a state in which fear has already been abolished. | Miracles are thus a means, and revelation is an end. [In this sense, |
| Tx:1.40 | and revelation is an end. [In this sense, they work together.] | Miracles do not depend on revelation; they induce it. Revelation is |
| Tx:1.40 | is usually incomprehensible. Revelation induces only experience. | Miracles, on the other hand, induce [interpersonal] action. Miracles |
| Tx:1.40 | Miracles, on the other hand, induce [interpersonal] action. | Miracles are more useful now because of their [impersonal] nature. In |

| Tx:1.49 | 35. | Miracles are expressions of love, but it does not follow that they |
| Tx:1.49 | they will always [be effective]. I am the only one who can perform | miracles indiscriminately, because I am the Atonement. You have a |
| Tx:1.49 | a role in the Atonement, which I will dictate to you. Ask me which | miracles you should perform. This spares you exhaustion, because you |
| Tx:1.50 | 36. Christ-controlled | miracles are part of the Atonement, but Christ-guidance is personal |
| Tx:1.50 | personal [and leads to personal salvation]. The impersonal nature of | miracles is an essential ingredient, because this enables me to |
| Tx:1.54 | 37. | Miracles are examples of right thinking. Reality contact at all |
| Tx:1.56 | 39. The Spiritual eye is the mechanism of | miracles, because what It perceives is true. It perceives both the |
| Tx:1.61 | 42. Wholeness is the perceptual content of | miracles. It thus corrects or atones for the faulty perception of |
| Tx:1.62 | Here we begin to make the fundamental distinction between | miracles and projection. The stimulus must precede the response and |
| Tx:1.66 | it. Those who witness for me are expressing through their | miracles that they have abandoned the belief in deprivation in favor |
| Tx:1.67 | 43. A major contribution of | miracles is their strength in releasing man from his misplaced sense |
| Tx:1.68 | Miracles are affirmations of Sonship, which is a state of completion | |
| Tx:1.71 | 44. | Miracles arise from a miraculous state of mind. By being one, this |
| Tx:1.71 | awareness of the miracle worker himself. The impersonal nature of | miracles is because the Atonement itself is one, uniting all |
| Tx:1.74 | The | miracles you are not asked to perform have not lost their value. They |
| Tx:1.75 | to do. Only the last is involuntary because it is the application of | miracles, which must be Christ-controlled. The other two, which are |

| Tx:1.77 | it is perfectly and correctly applicable. It is not appropriate for | miracles, because a state of awe is worshipful. It implies that one |

| Tx:1.81 | returns to his original form of communication with God, the need for | miracles is over. The Holy Spirit mediates higher to lower |
| Tx:1.94 | because they are errors. Thus, the next point to remember about | miracles is: |
| Tx:1.96 | Christ-controlled | miracles are selective only in the sense that they are directed |
| Tx:1.107 | except to himself. Man believes in what he creates. If he creates | miracles, he will be equally strong in his belief in them. The |
| Tx:2.16 | truth on the one hand and all kinds of errors on the other. Some | miracles may seem to be of greater magnitude than others. But |
| Tx:2.16 | first point in this course—that there is no order of difficulty in | miracles. |
| Tx:2.17 | unshaken by lack of love from without and capable through your own | miracles of correcting the external conditions which proceed from |
| Tx:2.19 | on it. You can do anything I ask. I have asked you to perform | miracles and have made it clear that miracles are natural, |
| Tx:2.19 | I have asked you to perform miracles and have made it clear that | miracles are natural, corrective, healing, and universal. There is |
| Tx:2.42 | self very unexpectedly. This tendency cannot be controlled except by | miracles. |
| Tx:2.53 | level can adversely affect another. We have constantly referred to | miracles as the means of correcting level confusion, and all mistakes |
| Tx:2.58 | to occur when upside-down perception has induced the belief that | miracles are frightening. |
| Tx:2.62 | persists, they should be preserved from even attempting | miracles. |
| Tx:2.95 | [Miracles cannot free the miracle worker from fear.] Both | miracles and fear come from thoughts, and if you were not free to |
| Tx:3.11 | clear before any residual fear which may still be associated with | miracles becomes entirely groundless. The crucifixion did not |
| Tx:3.35 | strength for creative thinking but not for right doing. Perception, | miracles, and doing are closely related. Knowledge is the result of |
| Tx:3.56 | Prayer is a way of asking for something. Prayer is the medium of | miracles, but the only meaningful prayer is for forgiveness, because |
| Tx:3.59 | in which if anyone has everything, there is nothing left. God's | miracles are as total as His Thoughts because they are His Thoughts. |
| Tx:3.60 | not prayer, is the natural state of those who know. God and His | miracles are inseparable. How beautiful indeed are the Thoughts of |
| Tx:4.68 | unstable? I do not believe that there is an order of difficulty in | miracles; you do. I have called, and you will answer. I know that |
| Tx:4.68 | in miracles; you do. I have called, and you will answer. I know that | miracles are natural because they are expressions of love. My calling |
| Tx:5.91 | himself, he does not believe that there is no order of difficulty in | miracles. He has not learned that every mind God created is equally |
| Tx:6.63 | We have said that the Holy Spirit is the motivation for | miracles. This is because He always tells you that only the mind is |
| Tx:6.63 | meaningless. To the Holy Spirit, there is no order of difficulty in | miracles. This is familiar enough to you by now, but it has not yet |
| Tx:6.64 | the thought system I teach and want you to teach. You cannot perform | miracles without believing it, because it is a belief in perfect |
| Tx:6.80 | It is clear at this point that the lack of order of difficulty in | miracles has not yet been accepted, because nothing is difficult that |
| Tx:7.19 | to liberate totally. We once said there is no order of difficulty in | miracles, because they are all maximal expressions of love. This has |
| Tx:7.34 | the knowledge that you are in God, because you are part of Him. The | miracles which the Holy Spirit inspires can have no order of |
| Tx:7.97 | and the extensions which maintain it in wholeness and peace. | Miracles are an expression of this confidence. They are reflections |
| Tx:7.106 | Miracles are in accord with the Will of God Whose Will you do not | |
| Tx:7.107 | demonstrating to yourselves that there is no order of difficulty in | miracles, you will convince yourselves that in your natural state |
| Tx:8.38 | His holy Sons! All glory lies in them because they are united. The | miracles we do bear witness to the Will of the Father for His Son and |
| Tx:8.59 | of reality merely appear to exist, just as different orders of | miracles do. Thought cannot be made into flesh except by belief, |
| Tx:9.14 | fulfill it perfectly. That is what we meant when we once said that | miracles are natural, and when they do not occur, something has gone |
| Tx:9.15 | Miracles are merely the sign of your willingness to follow the Holy | |
| Tx:9.36 | Miracles have no place in eternity because they are reparative. Yet | |
| Tx:9.36 | because they are reparative. Yet while you still need healing, your | miracles are the only witnesses to your reality which you can |
| Tx:9.36 | can recognize. You cannot perform a miracle for yourself, because | miracles are a way of giving acceptance and receiving it. In time, |
| Tx:9.55 | because love is returned, but pride is not. Pride will not produce | miracles and therefore will deprive you of your true witnesses to |
| Tx:10.68 | limited, you are limiting mine. There is no order of difficulty in | miracles because all of God's Sons are of equal value, and their |
| Tx:11.14 | Miracles are merely the translation of denial into truth. If to love | |
| Tx:11.61 | Miracles demonstrate that learning has occurred under the right | |
| Tx:11.61 | recognize that you have learned there is no order of difficulty in | miracles when you have applied them to all situations. There is no |
| Tx:11.61 | have applied them to all situations. There is no situation to which | miracles do not apply, and by applying them to all situations, you |
| Tx:11.63 | there. What He enables you to do is clearly not of this world, for | miracles violate every law of reality as this world judges it. Every |
| Tx:11.64 | manifestations. And unless you do, you will not realize He is there. | Miracles are His witnesses and speak for His Presence. What you |
| Tx:13.7 | you cannot lose. Offer Christ's gift to everyone and everywhere, for | miracles offered the Son of God through the Holy Spirit attune you to |
| Tx:13.9 | As | miracles in this world join you to your brothers, so do your |
| Tx:13.9 | in Heaven. The miracle which God created is perfect, as are the | miracles which you created in His name. They need no healing, nor do |
| Tx:13.10 | to as one. God waits your witness to His Son and to Himself. The | miracles you do on earth are lifted up to Heaven and to Him. They |
| Tx:13.49 | That is why your | miracles offer you the testimony that you are blessed. If what you |
| Tx:14.48 | Miracles are not in competition, and the number of them that you can | |
| Tx:14.51 | answer is very simple. The power of God, and not of you, engenders | miracles. The miracle itself is but the witness that you have the |
| Tx:14.67 | You cannot be your guide to | miracles, for it is you who made them necessary. And because you did, |
| Tx:14.67 | And because you did, the means on which you can depend for | miracles has been provided for you. God's Son can make no needs His |
| Tx:14.68 | the guidance that you would accept, you are unable to depend on | miracles to answer all your problems for you. |
| Tx:14.69 | have no problems which He cannot solve by offering you a miracle. | Miracles are for you. And every fear or pain or trial you have has |
| Tx:15.13 | tempted to attack a brother, that his instant of release is yours. | Miracles are the instants of release you offer and will receive. They |
| Tx:15.54 | them all equally, and so do you. In time you have been told to offer | miracles as Christ directs and let the Holy Spirit bring to you those |
| Tx:16.10 | yourselves not with the extension of holiness, for the nature of | miracles you do not understand. Nor do you do them. It is their |
| Tx:16.10 | attribute is no more difficult to understand than is the whole. If | miracles are at all, their attributes would have to be miraculous, |
| Tx:16.11 | to yourself. A better and far more helpful way to think of | miracles is this: You do not understand them, either in part or |
| Tx:16.12 | perception would show you instantly that order of difficulty in | miracles is quite impossible, for it involves a contradiction of what |
| Tx:16.12 | is quite impossible, for it involves a contradiction of what | miracles mean. And if you could understand their meaning, their |
| Tx:16.13 | You have done | miracles, but it is quite apparent that you have not done them alone. |
| Tx:16.15 | truth that has been given you, and be glad you do not understand it. | Miracles are natural to God and to the One Who speaks for Him. For |
| Tx:17.3 | When you maintain that there must be order of difficulty in | miracles, all you mean is that there are some things you would |
| Tx:17.4 | have it so, so long will the illusion of order of difficulty in | miracles remain with you. For you have established this order in |
| Tx:18.40 | place to One Who knows. The whole belief in orders of difficulty in | miracles is centered on this. Everything God wills is not only |
| Tx:19.44 | is every miracle contained. There is no order of difficulty in | miracles, for they are all the same. Each is a gentle winning over |
| Tx:19.83 | way to teach the first and fundamental principle in a course on | miracles than by showing you the one which seems to be the hardest |
| Tx:21.1 | is a result, not a cause. And that is why order of difficulty in | miracles is meaningless. Everything looked upon with vision is healed |
| Tx:21.36 | its power elsewhere should another point of view be given them. The | miracles which follow this decision are also born of faith. For all |
| Tx:21.51 | in them, you will perceive another Self in you. This other Self sees | miracles as natural. They are as simple and natural to It as |
| Tx:21.51 | are the obvious response to calls for help, the only one It makes. | Miracles seem unnatural to the ego because it does not understand how |
| Tx:21.51 | other Self is perfectly aware of this. And thus It recognizes that | miracles do not affect another's mind, only Its own. [They always |
| Tx:23.21 | Think how this seems to interfere with the first principle of | miracles. For this establishes degrees of truth among illusions, |
| Tx:23.21 | same and equally untrue, it would be easy, then, to understand that | miracles apply to all of them. Errors of any kind can be corrected |
| Tx:23.50 | that you do not recognize for what it is limits the healing and the | miracles you have the power to extend to all. Yet does the Holy |
| Tx:23.51 | of it. Here murder is your choice. Yet from above, the choice is | miracles instead of murder. And the perspective coming from this |
| Tx:23.51 | perceived as nothingness when you engage in it? How can the truth of | miracles be recognized if murder is your choice? |
| Tx:23.55 | Who with the love of God upholding him could find the choice of | miracles or murder hard to make? |
| Tx:24.36 | make less sense to specialness. Nothing could make more sense to | miracles. For miracles are merely change of purpose from hurt to |
| Tx:24.36 | sense to specialness. Nothing could make more sense to miracles. For | miracles are merely change of purpose from hurt to healing. |
| Tx:25.82 | that justice means no one can lose is crucial to this course. For | miracles depend on justice. Not as it is seen through this world's |
| Tx:25.83 | he does not merit an attack of any kind. What order can there be in | miracles, unless someone deserves to suffer more and others less? And |
| Tx:25.84 | seek to help God's Son be more unfair than he has sought to be. If | miracles, the Holy Spirit's gift, were given specially to an elect |
| Tx:25.85 | Unless you think that all your brothers have an equal right to | miracles with you, you will not claim your right to them because you |
| Tx:25.85 | because another could receive it not. Only forgiveness offers | miracles. And pardon must be just to everyone. |
| Tx:26.28 | Forgiveness brings no little | miracles to lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God |
| Tx:26.30 | hindrance can seem large indeed to those who do not understand that | miracles are all the same. Yet teaching that is what this course is |
| Tx:26.47 | This is a course in | miracles. And as such, the laws of healing must be understood before |
| Tx:26.79 | take its ancient place upon an ancient throne. Because of Them have | miracles sprung up as grass and flowers on the barren ground which |
| Tx:27.19 | How just are | miracles! For they bestow an equal gift of full deliverance from |
| Tx:27.45 | for an instant, you love without attack. An instant is sufficient. | Miracles wait not on time. |
| Tx:27.59 | they attest to different sufferings. Yet to the One Who sends forth | miracles to bless the world, a tiny stab of pain, a little worldly |
| Tx:27.60 | to accomplish this. And God Himself has guaranteed the strength of | miracles for what they witness to. Be witnesses unto the miracle and |
| Tx:27.87 | all of them, no matter what their form. And you will understand that | miracles reflect the simple statement, |
| Tx:28.9 | does not lie in the past nor await the future. It is not revealed in | miracles. They but remind you that It has not gone. When you forgive |
| Tx:28.26 | effects are gone, there is no cause. Thus is the body healed by | miracles because they show the mind made sickness and employed the |

| W1:187.3 | But you will not believe that this is done until you see the | miracles it brings to everyone you look upon. Herein is the idea of |

| W2:223.2 | Our Father, let us see the face of Christ instead of our | mistakes. For we who are Your holy Son are sinless. We would look |

| Tx:3.53 | to do it if he were in his right mind. The problem that bothers you | most is the fundamental question which man continually asks of |
| Tx:3.67 | from their Author. The word “authority” has been one of their | most fearful symbols ever since. Authority has been used for great |

| Tx:18.10 | Let us join in Him in peace and gratitude and accept His gift as our | most holy and perfect reality, which we share in Him. |
| Tx:18.13 | You have been called together to the | most holy function that this world contains. It is the only one which |
| Tx:18.55 | This is the host of God that you have made. And neither God nor His | most holy Son can enter an abode which harbors hate and where you |
| Tx:18.88 | keep it hidden. Its shadow rises to the surface, enough to hold its | most external manifestations in darkness and to bring despair and |
| Tx:19.11 | It is the gracious acknowledgment of everyone as a Son of your | most loving Father, loved by Him like you and therefore loved by you |
| Tx:19.15 | so will faith help the Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the | most holy garden which He would make of it. For faith brings peace, |
| Tx:19.21 | and quite unapproachable except through reverence and awe. It is the | most “holy” concept in the ego's system—lovely and powerful, wholly |

| Tx:19.104 | of Heaven that you cannot offer to each other and receive from your | most holy Friend. Let him withhold it not, for by receiving it you |
| Tx:20.6 | it offers depends on what it wants. It will adorn its chosen home | most carefully, making it ready to receive the gifts it wants by |
| Tx:20.19 | timid way through constant dangers, alone and frightened, hoping at | most that death will wait a little longer before it overtakes you and |
| Tx:20.72 | the source of your salvation, will be deprived of meaning, and its | most holy purpose bereft of means for its accomplishment. |
| Tx:23.16 | to both of you, who dwell as one and not apart. Open the door of His | most holy home and let forgiveness sweep away all trace of the belief |
| Tx:23.29 | hidden secret treasure, to be wrested in righteous wrath from this | most treacherous and cunning enemy? It must be what you want but |
| Tx:23.34 | yet in dreams, where only shadows play the major roles, it seems | most powerful. No law of chaos could compel belief but for the |
| Tx:25.56 | is the special form in which the fact that God is not insane appears | most sensible and meaningful to you. The content is the same. The |
| Tx:25.56 | His Will is seen as madness, then the form of sanity which makes it | most acceptable to those who are insane requires special choice. Nor |
| Tx:25.57 | insanity as his salvation. To this One is given the choice of form | most suitable to him; one which will not attack the world he sees, |
| Tx:26.28 | rest. And each one teaches him that what he fear[s,] he loves the | most. What but a miracle could change his mind, so that he |
| Tx:27.39 | others are not true. What can the body get that you would want the | most of all? It is your servant and your friend. But tell it what you |
| Tx:29.2 | Here is the fear of God | most plainly seen. For love is treacherous to those who fear, since |
| Tx:31.52 | That you are what your brother made of you seems | most unlikely. Even if he did, who gave the face of innocence to you? |
| Tx:31.74 | nothing with clarity. The light is kept from everything you see. At | most, you glimpse a shadow of what lies beyond. At least, you merely |
| W1:13.4 | done about three or four times for not more than a minute or so at | most each time, are to be practiced in a somewhat different way from |

| W1:73.17 | This should be repeated several times an hour. It is | most important, however, to apply today's idea in this form |
| W1:93.8 | In our longer exercise periods today, which would be | most profitable if done for the first five minutes of every waking |
| W1:95.6 | it. Regularity in terms of time is not the ideal requirement for the | most beneficial form of practice in salvation. It is advantageous, |

| W1:125.7 | Three times today, at times | most suitable for silence, give ten minutes set apart from listening |
| W1:133.5 | The range is set, and this we cannot change. It would be | most ungenerous to you to let alternatives be limitless and thus |
| W1:135.28 | Try not to shape this day as you believe would benefit you | most. For you cannot conceive of all the happiness that comes to you |
| W1:138.6 | is. Of all the choices you have tried to make, this is the simplest, | most definitive, the prototype of all the rest, the one which settles |
| W1:152.4 | This is the simplest of distinctions, yet the | most obscure. But not because it is a difficult distinction to |
| W1:153.16 | share with God. At times, perhaps, a minute, even less, will be the | most that we can offer as the hour strikes. Sometimes we will forget. |

| Tx:5.17 | time perception which the miracle introduces. The Holy Spirit is the | motivation for miracle-mindedness, the will to heal the separation by |

| Tx:4.55 | invincible odds, whether you are asleep or awake. Consider how | much vigilance you have been willing to exert to protect your ego and |
| Tx:4.58 | This may seem hard to you, but it is | much easier than trying to think against it. Your mind is one with |
| Tx:4.63 | Son of God, but he himself can limit the expression of his power as | much as he chooses. |
| Tx:4.75 | always a form of ego involvement, is not a matter of reliability as | much as of validity. The ego compromises with the issue of the |
| Tx:4.84 | persuade you that you cannot dismiss it lightly and must realize how | much of your thinking is ego-directed. We cannot safely let it go at |
| Tx:4.86 | The term “holy” can be used here because as you learn how | much you are indebted to the whole Sonship, which includes me, you |

| Tx:5.74 | ego speaks in judgment and the Holy Spirit reverses its decisions, | much as the Supreme Court has the power to reverse the lower courts' |

| Tx:7.19 | to measure it from the maximum and identify its position by how | much it is not there. Actually, this does not mean anything. It is |
| Tx:7.104 | is beyond question. It will always remain beyond question, however | much you may question it. |
| Tx:8.29 | Do you not think the world needs peace as | much as you do? Do you not want to give it to the world as much as |
| Tx:8.29 | peace as much as you do? Do you not want to give it to the world as | much as you want to receive it? For unless you do, you will not |
| Tx:8.41 | it you will. I give it willingly and gladly, because I need you as | much as you need me. |
| Tx:8.117 | priced it by what you give. To believe that it is possible to get | much for little is to believe that you can bargain with God. God's |
| Tx:8.117 | the value you put upon it. And this, in turn, is the measure of how | much you want it. |
| Tx:8.118 | Him only where you see Him. If you see Him in everyone, consider how | much you will be asking of Him and how much you will receive. He will |
| Tx:8.118 | Him in everyone, consider how much you will be asking of Him and how | much you will receive. He will deny you nothing because you have |
| Tx:9.61 | you encompass everything. Believe this, and you will realize how | much is up to you. When anything threatens your peace of mind, ask |
| Tx:9.81 | and you will learn this as you learn that you always receive as | much as you accept. You could accept peace now for everyone you meet |
| Tx:9.83 | You do not realize how | much you listen to your gods and how vigilant you are on their |
| Tx:9.98 | Son of God, you have not sinned, but you have been | much mistaken. Yet this can be corrected, and God will help you, |
| Tx:9.102 | You do not realize how | much you have denied yourself, and how much God in His love would not |
| Tx:9.102 | You do not realize how much you have denied yourself, and how | much God in His love would not have it so. Yet He would not interfere |

| Tx:10.7 | That is why your creations have not ceased to be extended and why so | much is waiting for your return. |
| Tx:10.11 | gift to you? Give, then, without limit and without end to learn how | much He has given you. Your ability to accept Him depends on your |
| Tx:10.21 | If you will merely offer Him a little place, He will lighten it so | much that you will gladly extend it. And by this extending, you will |
| Tx:10.46 | about reality, but it does not lose sight of its goal. It is | much more vigilant than you are because it is perfectly certain of |
| Tx:10.60 | questions are all the same and are answered together. There has been | much confusion about what perception means because the same word is |
| Tx:11.82 | what you have made visible to yourselves. Yet it does not matter how | much distance you have tried to interpose between your awareness and |
| Tx:12.1 | the ego attempts to get rid of guilt from its viewpoint only, for | much as the ego wants to retain guilt, you find it intolerable, since |
| Tx:12.4 | Much of the ego's strange behavior is directly attributable to its | |
| Tx:12.12 | you from this. For still deeper than the ego's foundation, and | much stronger than it will ever be, is your intense and burning love |
| Tx:13.27 | has looked within and seen the radiance there, he will remember how | much his Father loves him. And it will seem incredible that he has |
| Tx:13.28 | looking without mercy upon your brothers, you do not remember how | much you love Him. Yet it is forever true. In shining peace within |
| Tx:13.47 | Heaven as the ego points to darkness and to death. We have followed | much of the ego's logic and have seen its logical conclusions. And |
| Tx:14.2 | hear me speak for Him and for yourselves. You cannot understand how | much your Father loves you, for there is no parallel in your |
| Tx:14.20 | purpose. He knows you are not separate from God, but He perceives | much in your mind that lets you think you are. All this, and nothing |
| Tx:14.33 | for you. Everything that promises otherwise, great or small, however | much or little valued, He will replace with the one promise given |
| Tx:14.52 | the call for love. You cannot safely make this division, for you are | much too confused either to recognize love or to believe that |
| Tx:14.58 | have lost it. You still have the power, but you have interposed so | much between it and your awareness of it that you cannot use it. |
| Tx:15.19 | You do not realize how | much you have misused your brothers by seeing them as sources of ego |
| Tx:15.19 | provide reasons for not letting it go. Yet they are far stronger and | much more compelling witnesses for the Holy Spirit. And they support |
| Tx:15.20 | You can practice the mechanics of the holy instant and will learn | much from doing so. Yet its shining and glittering brilliance, which |
| Tx:15.23 | yourself unworthy of it. And whatever you offer as a substitute is | much too poor a gift to satisfy you. It is essential that you accept |
| Tx:15.36 | As long as you desire it not and cherish littleness instead, by so | much is it far from you. By so much as you want it will you bring it |
| Tx:15.36 | and cherish littleness instead, by so much is it far from you. By so | much as you want it will you bring it nearer. Think not that you can |

| Tx:15.70 | is actually the root of its bitter resentment. For it would | much prefer to attack directly and avoid delaying what it really |
| Tx:15.71 | relationships, the attraction of what you do not want seems to be | much stronger than the attraction of what you do. For each one thinks |
| Tx:15.96 | must get. And the only question which remains to be decided is how | much is the price for getting what. |
| Tx:15.112 | So will the year begin in joy and freedom. There is | much to do, and we have been long delayed. Accept the holy instant as |
| Tx:16.22 | you have so diligently taught yourself to believe? Yet remember how | much care you have exerted in choosing its witnesses and in avoiding |
| Tx:16.49 | “sin” of taking and of giving nothing of value in return. For how | much value can he place upon a self that he would give away to get a |
| Tx:16.67 | and beauty wait for you. Go on to meet them gladly, and learn how | much awaits you for the simple willingness to give up nothing because |
| Tx:17.13 | How | much do you want salvation? It will give you the real world, |
| Tx:18.1 | consider exactly what this entails, you would perceive at once how | much at variance this is with the goal the Holy Spirit has given you |
| Tx:18.9 | the truth about each other can abide. Here you are joined in God, as | much together as you are with Him. The original error has not entered |
| Tx:18.32 | realization that you need do so little that enables Him to give so | much. |

| Tx:20.35 | how you can be at peace when, while you are in time, there is so | much that must be done before the way to peace is open. Perhaps this |

| Tx:21.36 | vision, not obstructing it. But first they chose to recognize how | much their faith had limited their understanding of the world, |
| Tx:21.44 | born within you. Not wholly mad, you have been willing to look on | much of your insanity and recognize its madness. Your faith is moving |

| Tx:22.5 | indeed believe this, and you do. And you have faith in this and see | much evidence on its behalf. And where, you wonder, does your strange |
| Tx:23.41 | it is true attack in any form will hurt you and will do so just as | much as in another form which you do recognize, then it must follow |
| Tx:24.41 | or disguised the form; however lovely it may seem to be; however | much it delicately offers the hope of peace and the escape from pain |
| Tx:24.44 | lend you His while you have need of them. They are illusions too, as | much as yours. And yet, because they serve a different purpose, the |
| Tx:24.62 | to him, he hears no other Voice. No effort is too great, no cost too | much, no price too dear to save his specialness from the least |
| Tx:24.65 | mind? The body, yes, a little—not from time, but temporarily. And | much you think you save, you hurt. What would you save it for? For in |
| Tx:25.19 | holiness is set, and what God gave him must be given you. However | much he overlooks the masterpiece in him and sees only a frame of |
| Tx:25.29 | release from the belief there are two ways to see. This world has | much to offer to your peace and many chances to extend your own |
| Tx:25.48 | Yet while in time, there is still | much to do. And each must do what is allotted him, for on his part |
| Tx:25.63 | recognize that what brings loss to no one you would not know. This | much is necessary to add to the idea no one can lose for you to gain. |
| Tx:25.71 | Could He, in justice and in love believe in your confusion you have | much to give? You are not asked to trust Him far. No further than |
| Tx:25.73 | and unfair indeed to all the holiness that is in him, however | much he recognize it not. God knows of no injustice. He would not |
| Tx:25.81 | state in which it is decided who shall win and who shall lose—how | much the one shall take and how much can the loser still defend. |

| Tx:26.25 | unless he has believed in sin and still believes that he has | much to be forgiven. Forgiveness thus becomes the means by which he |
| Tx:26.37 | he may hear a fact in what is there to hear where he is now? And how | much can his own delusions about time and place affect a change in |
| Tx:26.58 | Here does the Son of God ask not too | much but far too little. He would sacrifice his own identity with |
| Tx:26.77 | in him sleeps your own salvation with his freedom joined! However | much you wish he be condemned, God is in him. And never will you know |
| Tx:26.78 | Is it too | much to ask a little trust for him who carries Christ to you, that |
| Tx:26.83 | shall the Lord of Heaven and His Son give less in gratitude for so | much more? |
| Tx:26.85 | knowledge. It is not a question of the size of the confusion or how | much it interferes. Its simple presence shuts the door to Theirs and |
| Tx:28.19 | memories and dreams. Yet if you are the dreamer, you perceive this | much at least—that you have caused the dream and can accept another |
| Tx:28.25 | because you see that it has no effects. Now are you freed from this | much of the dream; the world is neutral, and the bodies which still |
| Tx:29.14 | You do not see how | much you now can give because of everything you have received. Yet He |
| Tx:29.26 | The dreams you think you like would hold you back as | much as those in which the fear is seen. For every dream is but a |
| Tx:29.38 | How willing are you to forgive your brother? How | much do you desire peace instead of endless strife and misery and |
| Tx:30.17 | This | much is obvious and paves the way for the next easy step. |
| Tx:30.21 | you will believe your happiness depends on being right. But this | much reason have you now attained—you would be better off if you |
| Tx:30.56 | than this is asked. Be glad indeed salvation asks so little, not so | much. It asks for nothing in reality. And even in illusions it but |
| Tx:30.73 | brother merits pardon, you have learned forgiveness is your right as | much as his. Nor will you think that God intends for you a fearful |
| Tx:31.7 | is not the only outcome which your learning can produce. However | much you may have overlearned your chosen task, the lesson which |
| Tx:31.20 | be still, forgetting everything we thought we heard; remembering how | much we do not know. This brother neither leads nor follows us but |
| Tx:31.40 | —you choose between your brother and yourself, and you will gain as | much as he will lose, and what you lose is what is given him. How |
| Tx:31.63 | same as he is now an instant hence. Who could have trust where so | much change is seen, for who is worthy if he be but dust? Salvation |
| Tx:31.71 | You live in that world just as | much as this. For both are concepts of yourself which can be |

| W1:18.2 | Today's idea does not refer to what you see as | much as to how you see it. Therefore, the exercises for today will |
| W1:19.5 | The requirement of as | much indiscriminateness as possible in selecting subjects for the |
| W1:24.3 | The exercises for today require | much more honesty than you are accustomed to using. A few subjects, |
| W1:26.11 | available for each situation you use and quite possibly more. It is | much more helpful to cover a few situations thoroughly than to touch |
| W1:27.7 | The real question is how often will you remember? How | much do you want today's idea to be true? Answer one of these |
| W1:28.4 | commitment. It is a commitment which applies to the table just as | much as to anything else, neither more nor less. |
| W1:39.10 | Sustained concentration is very difficult at first. It will become | much easier as your mind becomes more disciplined and less |
| W1:51.6 | is justified and my attacks are warranted. I have not realized how | much I have misused everything I see by assigning this role to it. I |
| W1:67.6 | yourself as Love created you. Be confident that you will do | much today to bring that awareness nearer, whether you feel you have |
| W1:69.6 | world, try to settle down in perfect stillness, remembering only how | much you want to reach the light in you today—now. Determine to go |
| W1:93.17 | You can do | much for the world's salvation today. You can do much today to bring |
| W1:93.17 | You can do much for the world's salvation today. You can do | much today to bring you closer to accepting the part in salvation |
| W1:93.17 | the part in salvation which God has assigned to you. And you can do | much today to bring the conviction to your mind that the idea for the |
| W1:96.17 | everyone who asks for it and will accept the gift. Think, then, how | much is given unto you to give this day, that it be given you! |
| W1:97.7 | to you, it will surpass in might the little gift you gave as | much as does the radiance of the sun outshine the tiny gleam a |
| W1:100.6 | along with you. God asks that you be happy so the world can see how | much He loves His Son and wills no sorrow rises to abate his joy; no |
| W1:108.13 | Our very simple lesson for today will teach you | much. Effect and cause will be far better understood from this time |
| W1:108.13 | will be far better understood from this time on, and we will make | much faster progress now. Think of the exercises for today as quick |
| W1:R3.14 | Do not forget how little you have learned. Do not forget how | much you can learn now. Do not forget your Father's need of you as |
| W1:128.7 | eyes are opened afterwards, you will not value anything you see as | much as when you looked at it before. Your whole perspective on the |
| W1:133.2 | You do not ask too | much of life, but far too little. When you let your mind be drawn to |
| W1:139.12 | memory is the recall how dear our brothers are to us in truth, how | much a part of us is every mind, how faithful they have really been |
| W1:153.4 | beyond the possible. The sense of threat the world encourages is so | much deeper and so far beyond the frenzy and intensity of which you |
| W1:153.4 | You know not what you do in fear of it. You do not understand how | much you have been made to sacrifice who feel its iron grip upon your |
| W1:182.10 | Go home with Him from time to time today. You are as | much an alien here as He. |
| W1:187.4 | form. For this will change and grow unrecognizable in time, however | much you try to keep it safe. No form endures. It is the thought |
| W1:194.6 | as the deliverance it really is, you will not hesitate to give as | much consistent effort as you can to make it be a part of you. As it |
| W1:196.7 | To question it at all, its form must first be changed at least as | much as will permit fear of retaliation to abate and the |
| W2:I.2 | happy. We will not consider time a matter of duration now. We use as | much as we will need for the result that we desire. Nor will we |
| W2:238.2 | And so again today we pause to think how | much our Father loves us. And how dear His Son, created by His Love, |
| W2:270.1 | a forgiven world. How glorious and gracious is this world! Yet how | much more will I perceive in it than sight can give. The world |
| W2:WIHS.3 | If you but knew how | much your Father yearns to have you recognize your sinlessness, you |
| W2:335.1 | I want to be the truth. It is to this alone that I respond, however | much I seem to be impelled by outside happenings. I choose to see |
| M:4.5 | changes are always helpful. When the teacher of God has learned that | much, he goes on to the second stage. |
| M:16.3 | time devoted to starting the day right does indeed save time. How | much time should be so spent? This must depend on the teacher of God |
| M:24.4 | is therefore wise to step away from all such questions, for he has | much to teach and learn apart from them. He should both learn and |
| M:24.5 | birth was not the beginning and death is not the end. Yet even this | much is not required of the beginner. He need merely accept the idea |
| M:25.1 | The answer to this question is | much like the preceding one. There are, of course, no “unnatural” |
| M:26.3 | is almost impossible that this endure. It can, perhaps, be won after | much devotion and dedication and then be maintained for most of the |

| Tx:13.52 | has been blocked by the capricious and unholy whim of death and | murder that your Father shared not with you. You have set yourselves |
| Tx:19.56 | To the ego sin means death, and so Atonement is achieved through | murder. Salvation is looked upon as a way by which the Son of God was |
| Tx:19.61 | belief in death? Here is the focus of the perception of Atonement as | murder. Here is the source of the idea that love is fear. The Holy |
| Tx:20.19 | and needs an answer. Do you like what you have made—a world of | murder and attack through which you thread your timid way through |
| Tx:20.73 | that those who seem to walk about in it, to sin and die, attack and | murder and destroy themselves, are wholly unreal? Could you have |
| Tx:23.32 | madness sanity, illusions true, attack a kindness, hatred love and | murder benediction, is the goal the laws of chaos serve. These are |
| Tx:23.35 | How can some forms of | murder not mean death? Can an attack in any form be love? What form |
| Tx:23.41 | equally destructive. Its purpose does not change. Its sole intent is | murder, and what form of murder serves to cover the massive guilt and |
| Tx:23.41 | purpose does not change. Its sole intent is murder, and what form of | murder serves to cover the massive guilt and frantic fear of |

| Tx:23.45 | Could they accept forgiveness side by side with the belief that | murder takes some forms by which their peace is saved? Would they be |
| Tx:23.46 | you. Not one illusion of protection stands against the faith in | murder. Here stands the body, torn between the natural desire to |
| Tx:23.46 | the natural desire to communicate and the unnatural intent to | murder and to die. Think you the form that murder takes can offer |
| Tx:23.46 | the unnatural intent to murder and to die. Think you the form that | murder takes can offer safety? Can guilt be absent from a |
| Tx:23.47 | cannot conflict. You are not asked to fight against your wish to | murder. But you are asked to realize the form it takes conceals the |
| Tx:23.47 | And it is this you fear and not the form. What is not love is | murder. What is not loving must be an attack. Every illusion is an |
| Tx:23.48 | What can be equal to the truth yet different? | Murder and love are incompatible. Yet if they both are true, then |
| Tx:23.49 | is His own. It is not sinful to believe the function of the Son is | murder, but it is insanity. What is the same can have no different |
| Tx:23.50 | as yet, and so it cannot be extended to all creation. Each form of | murder and attack that still attracts you and that you do not |
| Tx:23.50 | the battleground, in it no more. This is your part—to realize that | murder in any form is not your will. The overlooking of the |
| Tx:23.51 | it, it does seem real. Here you have chosen to be part of it. Here | murder is your choice. Yet from above, the choice is miracles instead |
| Tx:23.51 | is your choice. Yet from above, the choice is miracles instead of | murder. And the perspective coming from this choice shows you the |
| Tx:23.51 | you engage in it? How can the truth of miracles be recognized if | murder is your choice? |
| Tx:23.52 | leave not your place on high but quickly choose a miracle instead of | murder. And God Himself and all the lights of Heaven will gently lean |
| Tx:23.53 | meaning can be given what you see. For only bodies could attack and | murder, and if this is your purpose, then you must be one with them. |
| Tx:23.55 | the love of God upholding him could find the choice of miracles or | murder hard to make? |
| Tx:24.23 | And no relationship that holds its purpose dear but clings to | murder as safety's weapon and the great defender of all illusions |
| Tx:25.82 | at best can bring another problem added to the first, in which the | murder is not obvious. The Holy Spirit's problem solving is the way |
| Tx:27.74 | and who shall be the victim. In the dreams He brings, there is no | murder and there is no death. The dream of guilt is fading from your |
| Tx:28.20 | In dreams of | murder and attack are you the victim in a dying body slain. But in |
| Tx:29.38 | dream of danger and destruction, sin, and death; of madness and of | murder, grief and loss. This is the “sacrifice” salvation asks and |
| Tx:31.16 | Perhaps you call it love. Perhaps you think that it is | murder justified at last. You hate the one you gave the leader's role |
| Tx:31.27 | to you? What could the outcome be that you would want? And how could | murder bring you benefit? |
| Tx:31.30 | nothing can find mercy or survive the ravages of fear except in | murder and in death. For here are you made sin, and sin cannot abide |
| W1:189.3 | who see a world of hatred, rising from attack, poised to avenge, to | murder and destroy. |
| W2:WIRW.3 | What need has such a mind for thoughts of death, attack, and | murder? What can it perceive surrounding it but safety, love, and |

| W1:35.7 | I see myself as helpless. I see myself as victorious. I see | myself as losing out. I see myself as charitable. I see myself as |
| W1:35.7 | I see myself as victorious. I see myself as losing out. I see | myself as charitable. I see myself as virtuous. |
| W1:35.7 | I see myself as losing out. I see myself as charitable. I see | myself as virtuous. |
| W1:38.5 | In the situation involving ______ in which I see | myself, there is nothing that my holiness cannot do. In the situation |
| W1:43.9 | of forgiveness. I see the world as blessed. The world can show me | myself. I see my own thoughts, which are like God's. |
| W1:46.7 | God is the Love in which I forgive | myself. |
| W1:46.9 | God is the Love with which I love | myself. God is the Love in which I am blessed. |
| W1:52.3 | and everything, making them my “enemies.” When I have forgiven | myself and remembered who I am, I will bless everyone and everything |
| W1:55.2 | to the truth in me, rather than those that show me an illusion of | myself. |
| W1:55.5 | own best interests are, recognizing that I cannot perceive them by | myself. |
| W1:55.6 | To me, the purpose of everything is to prove that my illusions about | myself are real. It is for that purpose that I attempt to use |
| W1:56.2 | are attacking my invulnerability. How can I know who I am when I see | myself as under constant attack? Pain, illness, loss, age, and death |
| W1:56.3 | I would remember who I am, it is essential that I let this image of | myself go. As it is replaced by truth, vision will surely be given |
| W1:56.3 | given me. And with this vision, I will look upon the world and upon | myself with charity and love. |
| W1:57.3 | I have invented the world I see. I made up the prison in which I see | myself. All I need do is recognize this, and I am free. I have |
| W1:57.3 | All I need do is recognize this, and I am free. I have deluded | myself into believing it is possible to imprison the Son of God. I |
| W1:57.6 | I begin to understand that this peace comes from deep within | myself. The world I look upon has taken on the light of my |
| W1:57.6 | back at me. In this light, I begin to see what my illusions about | myself had kept hidden. I begin to understand the holiness of all |
| W1:57.6 | I begin to understand the holiness of all living things including | myself, and their oneness with me. |
| W1:58.2 | perception of the real world come. Having forgiven, I no longer see | myself as guilty. I can accept the innocence that is the truth about |
| W1:58.2 | world is all I see, for I can picture only the thoughts I hold about | myself. |
| W1:58.4 | illusions? And what are all illusions except false ideas about | myself? My holiness undoes them all by asserting the truth about me. |
| W1:59.2 | when God always goes with me? How can I be doubtful and unsure of | myself when perfect certainty abides in Him? How can I be disturbed |
| W1:59.2 | and joy surround me through Him? Let me not cherish illusions about | myself. I am perfect because God goes with me wherever I go. |
| W1:68.8 | as my friend that I may remember you are part of me and come to know | myself. |
| W1:82.2 | forgiveness is the means by which the world is healed, together with | myself. Let me, then, forgive the world that it may be healed along |
| W1:84.4 | Let me not see an illusion of | myself in this. As I look on this, let me remember my Creator. My |
| W1:84.7 | I will not use this to attack love. Let this not tempt me to attack | myself. |
| W1:85.5 | and so it cannot have left my mind. I will not look for it outside | myself. It is not found outside and then brought in. But from within |
| W1:120.3 | created me. I am God's Son. Today I lay aside all sick illusions of | myself and let my Father tell me Who I really am. |
| W1:126.12 | All that I give is given to | myself. The Help I need to learn that this is true is with me now. |
| W1:128.9 | This will not tempt me to delay | myself. The world I see has nothing that I want. |
| W1:134.9 | he did, for this is self-deception. Ask instead, “Should I accuse | myself of doing this?” |
| W1:134.17 | you thought of him, and each time ask yourself “Would I condemn | myself for doing this?” |
| W1:134.20 | Let me perceive forgiveness as it is. Should I accuse | myself of doing this? I will not lay this chain upon myself. |
| W1:134.20 | Should I accuse myself of doing this? I will not lay this chain upon | myself. |
| W1:135.24 | If I defend | myself, I am attacked. But in defenselessness, I will be strong, and |
| W1:135.29 | This is my Eastertime. And I would keep it holy. I will not defend | myself, because the Son of God needs no defense against the truth of |
| W1:136.22 | I have forgotten what I really am for I mistook my body for | myself. Sickness is a defense against the truth, but I am not a body. |
| W1:139.11 | I will accept Atonement for | myself, for I remain as God created me. |
| W1:139.14 | I will accept Atonement for | myself, for I remain as God created me. |
| W1:143.2 | [126] All that I give is given to | myself. |
| W1:148.1 | [135] If I defend | myself, I am attacked. |
| W1:150.1 | [139] I will accept Atonement for | myself. |
| W1:152.13 | The power of decision is my own. This day I will accept | myself as what my Father's Will created me to be. |
| W1:160.5 | the stranger here. And so I leave my home to one more like me than | myself and give him all I thought belonged to me.” Now is he exiled |
| W1:207.1 | [187] I bless the world because I bless | myself. God's blessing shines upon me from within my heart where He |
| W1:216.1 | [196] It can be but | myself I crucify. All that I do, I do unto myself. If I attack, I |
| W1:216.1 | [196] It can be but myself I crucify. All that I do, I do unto | myself. If I attack, I suffer. But if I forgive, salvation will be |
| W1:217.1 | but my gratitude I earn. Who should give thanks for my salvation but | myself? And how but through salvation can I find the Self to Whom my |
| W2:228.2 | Father, I was mistaken in | myself because I failed to realize the Source from Which I came. I |
| W2:228.2 | remains a part of me, as I am part of You. And my mistakes about | myself are dreams. I let them go today. And I stand ready to receive |
| W2:231.1 | Let me remember You. What else could I desire but the truth about | myself? |
| W2:235.1 | all things that seem to hurt me and with perfect certainty assure | myself, “God wills that I be saved from this,” and merely watch them |
| W2:237.1 | Today I will accept the truth about | myself. I will arise in glory and allow the light in me to shine upon |
| W2:243.1 | I will be honest with | myself today. I will not think that I already know what must remain |
| W2:243.1 | And so I am relieved of judgment which I cannot make. Thus do I free | myself and what I look upon, to be in peace as God created us. |
| W2:246.1 | that I can know his Father or my Self. Let me not fail to recognize | myself and still believe that my awareness can contain my Father, or |
| W2:248.1 | falsity. Whatever suffers is not part of me. What grieves is not | myself. What is in pain is but illusion in my mind. What dies was |
| W2:248.1 | dies was never living in reality and did but mock the truth about | myself. Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the |
| W2:250.2 | instead of my illusions. He is what I am, and as I see him, so I see | myself. Today I would see truly that this day I may at last identify |
| W2:251.1 | Now have I everything that I could want. And now at last I find | myself at peace. |
| W2:253.1 | It is impossible that anything should come to me unbidden by | myself. Even in this world, it is I who rule my destiny. What happens |
| W2:260.1 | Father, I did not make | myself, although in my insanity I thought I did. Yet as Your thought, |
| W2:260.1 | Christ's vision, through which I would look upon my brothers and | myself today. |
| W2:261.1 | identify with what I think is refuge and security. I will behold | myself where I perceive my strength and think I live within the |
| W2:262.1 | Let me not see him as a stranger to his Father, nor as stranger to | myself. For he is part of me and I of him, and we are part of You Who |
| W2:264.1 | Father, You stand before me and behind, beside me, in the place I see | myself, and everywhere I go. You are in all the things I look upon, |
| W2:276.1 | What is the Word of God? “My Son is pure and holy as | Myself.” And thus did God become the Father of the Son He loves, for |
| W2:278.2 | for nothing but the truth. I have had many foolish thoughts about | myself and my creation and have brought a dream of fear into my mind. |
| W2:281.2 | I will not hurt | myself today. For I am far beyond all pain. My Father placed me safe |
| W2:282.1 | for all the world. This the decision not to be insane and to accept | myself as God Himself, my Father and my Source, created me. This the |
| W2:283.1 | Father, I made an image of | myself, and it is this I call the Son of God. Yet is creation as it |
| W2:291.1 | vision to the world. And I accept this vision in its name, both for | myself and for the world as well. What loveliness we look upon today! |
| W2:291.2 | You offer me. And I accept what comes from You instead of from | myself. I do not know the way to You. But You are wholly certain. |
| W2:297.1 | because it is the only gift I want, and everything I give I give | myself. This is salvation's simple formula. And I, who would be |
| W2:297.1 | needs salvation and that will be saved as I accept Atonement for | myself. |
| W2:318.2 | the role You offer me in Your request that I accept Atonement for | myself. For thus does what is thereby reconciled in me become as |
| W2:321.1 | in vain until I heard Your Voice directing me. Now I would guide | myself no more. For I have neither made nor understood the way to |
| W2:335.2 | His holiness reminds me that he was created one with me and like | myself. In him I find my Self, and in Your Son I find the memory of |
| W2:337.1 | What must I do to know all this is mine? I must accept Atonement for | myself and nothing more. God has already done all things that need be |
| W2:337.1 | all things that need be done. And I must learn I need do nothing of | myself, for I need but accept my Self, my sinlessness, created for |
| W2:337.2 | I was mistaken when I thought I sinned, but I accept Atonement for | myself. Father, my dream is ended now. Amen. |
| W2:339.2 | Father, this is Your day. It is a day in which I would do nothing by | myself but hear Your Voice in everything I do; requesting only what |
| W2:344.1 | understood what giving means and thought to save what I desired for | myself alone. And as I looked upon the treasure that I thought I had, |
| W2:351.1 | is my brother but Your holy Son? And if I see him sinful, I proclaim | myself a sinner, not a Son of God, alone and friendless in a fearful |
| W2:353.1 | end. A while I work with Him to serve His purpose. Then I lose | myself in my Identity and recognize that Christ is but my Self. |
| W2:358.1 | Your promise to Your Son in my awareness always. Let me not forget | myself is nothing, but my Self is all. |
| M:29.4 | again is the paradox often referred to in the course. To say, “Of | myself I can do nothing” is to gain all power. And yet it is but a |

| Tx:7.101 | you to tell them apart. However strange it may seem that this is | necessary, it obviously is. The reason is equally obvious. What is |
| Tx:8.5 | if you want a different one, a change in the curriculum is obviously | necessary. |
| Tx:8.76 | the harder it may be to recognize their nothingness, but it is not | necessary to examine all possible outcomes to which premises give |
| Tx:10.70 | cannot die. The real world can actually be perceived. All that is | necessary is a willingness to perceive nothing else. For if you |
| Tx:10.74 | in the end, teaches nothing more than that only reality is true is | necessary. But do you believe it? When you have perceived the real |
| Tx:11.9 | fear is not enough to escape from it, although the recognition is | necessary to demonstrate the need for escape. The Holy Spirit must |
| Tx:11.31 | perceive it because you think it is antagonistic to you. This is a | necessary consequence of what you have done. You have projected |
| Tx:11.50 | is against love and amounts to a course in how to attack yourself. A | necessary minor, supplementing this major curriculum goal, is |
| Tx:13.40 | You have need of contrast only here. Contrast and differences are | necessary teaching aids, for by them you learn what to avoid and what |
| Tx:14.1 | Him. Therefore, you must be guiltless. Yet if you do not accept the | necessary conditions for knowing Him, you have denied Him and do not |
| Tx:14.67 | You cannot be your guide to miracles, for it is you who made them | necessary. And because you did, the means on which you can depend for |
| Tx:15.43 | The | necessary condition for the holy instant does not require that you |
| Tx:15.86 | Our task is but to continue as fast as possible the | necessary process of looking straight at all the interference and |
| Tx:15.87 | of relationships without limits is given you. But to see this, it is | necessary to give up every use the ego has for the body and to accept |
| Tx:15.95 | all at once because there is but one shift in perception that is | necessary, for you made but one mistake. It seems like many, but it |
| Tx:15.95 | idea. What is not love is always fear and nothing else. It is not | necessary to follow fear through all the circuitous routes by which |
| Tx:15.95 | to emerge in forms quite different from what it is. Yet it is | necessary to examine each one as long as you would retain the |
| Tx:15.107 | if the body is destroyed, provided that you see not the body as the | necessary means of communication. And if you understand this lesson, |
| Tx:16.11 | Yet you have done them. Therefore, your understanding cannot be | necessary. Yet it is still impossible to accomplish what you do not |
| Tx:16.35 | barriers within yourself which you have built against it. It is not | necessary to seek for what is true, but it is necessary to seek for |
| Tx:16.35 | against it. It is not necessary to seek for what is true, but it is | necessary to seek for what is false. Every illusion is one of fear, |
| Tx:16.43 | In looking at the special relationship, it is | necessary first to realize that it involves a great amount of pain. |
| Tx:18.7 | matters. That they have in common and nothing else. Yet what else is | necessary to make them all the same? |
| Tx:18.27 | what you accepted, but remember that your understanding is not | necessary. All that was necessary was merely the wish to understand. |
| Tx:18.27 | but remember that your understanding is not necessary. All that was | necessary was merely the wish to understand. That wish was the desire |
| Tx:18.32 | the extent of recognizing that you want it above all else. It is not | necessary that you do more; indeed, it is necessary that you realize |
| Tx:18.32 | above all else. It is not necessary that you do more; indeed, it is | necessary that you realize that you cannot do more. Do not attempt to |
| Tx:18.46 | or to attempt to deal with it alone. Never believe that this is | necessary or even possible. Yet just as this is impossible, so is it |
| Tx:18.66 | and long periods of meditation aimed at detachment from the body | necessary. All such attempts will ultimately succeed because of their |
| Tx:20.16 | and doubt has entered. To this impaired condition are adjustments | necessary because they are not true. Who need adjust to truth, which |
| Tx:20.17 | mediator of all relationships, making whatever adjustments it deems | necessary and interposing them between those who would meet to keep |
| Tx:20.67 | will quietly return. It has been saved for you. Vision would not be | necessary had judgment not been made. Desire now its whole undoing, |
| Tx:21.4 | it is to attempt to judge what could be seen instead. It is not | necessary to imagine what the world must look like. It must be seen |
| Tx:21.74 | he must be willing to perceive a world where it is not. It is not | necessary that he understand how he can see it. Nor should he try. |
| Tx:21.83 | you think you are unsure the others have been answered? Could it be | necessary they be asked so often, if they had? Until the last |
| Tx:21.87 | shaken. It comes as surely unto those who see the final question is | necessary to the rest, as peace must come to those who choose to heal |
| Tx:22.63 | natural and more in line with your experience. And therefore it is | necessary that you have other experiences more in line with truth to |
| Tx:23.24 | and how He must respond, believing it. It is not seen as even | necessary that He be asked about the truth of what has been |
| Tx:24.1 | and the condition in which God is remembered is attained. It is not | necessary to tell Him what to do. He will not fail. Where He can |
| Tx:25.63 | that what brings loss to no one you would not know. This much is | necessary to add to the idea no one can lose for you to gain. And |
| Tx:25.64 | Here is the only principle salvation needs. Nor is it | necessary that your faith in it be strong, unswerving, and without |
| Tx:26.15 | solve. But you believe that some injustices are fair and good and | necessary to preserve yourself. It is these problems that you think |
| Tx:26.18 | to decide between. And only if there were could choosing be a | necessary step in the advance toward oneness. What is everything |
| Tx:26.19 | Yet is this magnitude beyond the scope of this curriculum. Nor is it | necessary we dwell on anything that cannot be immediately grasped. |
| Tx:27.25 | being what it really is. From an idea of self as two, there comes a | necessary view of function split between the two. And what you would |
| Tx:27.46 | nothing more than just one instant of your love without attack is | necessary that all this occur. In that one instant are you healed, |
| Tx:30.40 | are alone and separated off from what is whole. And thus it would be | necessary for the search for wholeness to be made beyond the |
| Tx:30.74 | that can not be overlooked. For if there were, it would be | necessary first there be some sin which stands beyond forgiveness. |
| W1:I.1 | A theoretical foundation such as the text is | necessary as a background to make these exercises meaningful. Yet it |
| W1:6.1 | with this idea are very similar to the preceding ones. Again, it is | necessary to name both the form of upset (anger, fear, worry, |

| W1:15.6 | of specific subjects for the application of today's idea. It is | necessary, however, to continue to look at each subject while you |
| W1:19.6 | periods are required, shortening the length of time involved if | necessary. Do not attempt more than four. |
| W1:21.1 | one. This time, however, specific mind searching periods are | necessary in addition to applying the idea to particular situations |
| W1:25.4 | make any sense out of the exercises for today, one more thought is | necessary. At the most superficial levels, you do recognize purpose. |
| W1:33.5 | apply today's idea the instant you are aware of distress. It may be | necessary to take a minute or so to sit quietly and repeat the idea |
| W1:40.1 | periods are required today, but very frequent short ones are | necessary. Once every ten minutes would be highly desirable, and you |
| W1:43.11 | thoughts. Return to the first phase of the exercises as often as | necessary to prevent this. |
| W1:45.11 | For this kind of practice, only one thing is | necessary—approach it as you would an altar dedicated in Heaven |
| W1:46.1 | condemned. And there must be condemnation before forgiveness is | necessary. Forgiveness is the great need of this world, but that is |
| W1:47.4 | the Source of real strength. Four five-minute practice periods are | necessary today, and longer and more frequent ones are urged. Close |
| W1:47.7 | The recognition of your own frailty is a | necessary step in the correction of your errors, but it is hardly a |
| W1:49.5 | repeat today's idea very frequently. Do so with your eyes open when | necessary, but closed when possible. And be sure that you sit quietly |
| W1:R1.2 | the five ideas, with the comments included. Thereafter, it is not | necessary to follow any particular order in considering them, though |
| W1:R1.3 | It is not | necessary to cover the comments that follow each idea literally or |
| W1:R1.4 | particularly for reviews at your stage of learning. It will be | necessary, however, that you learn to require no special settings in |
| W1:R1.6 | form of statement. Use them as they are given here. It is not | necessary to return to the original statements nor to apply the ideas |
| W1:51.2 | this is so is that I see nothing, and nothing has no meaning. It is | necessary that I recognize this, that I may learn to see. What I |
| W1:61.9 | what your purpose is. As a bringer of salvation, this is obviously | necessary. This is the first of a number of giant steps we will take |
| W1:65.1 | no function other than this. Both of these thoughts are obviously | necessary for a total commitment. Salvation cannot be the only |
| W1:66.8 | This could be false, of course, but in order to be false it is | necessary to define God as something He is not. Love cannot give |
| W1:67.6 | You may find it | necessary to repeat the idea for today from time to time to replace |
| W1:71.3 | this were different, I would be saved.” The change of mind that is | necessary for salvation is thus demanded of everyone and everything |
| W1:73.2 | ego gave rise to it, and the ego's need for grievances, which are | necessary to maintain it, peoples it with figures that seem to attack |
| W1:74.12 | quickly repeat the idea for today and try again. Do this as often as | necessary. There is definite gain in refusing to allow retreat into |
| W1:79.8 | succeed in letting all our preconceived notions go, but that is not | necessary. All that is necessary is to entertain some doubt about the |
| W1:79.8 | our preconceived notions go, but that is not necessary. All that is | necessary is to entertain some doubt about the reality of our version |
| W1:95.4 | lack of mental discipline and of your need for mind training. It is | necessary that you be aware of this, for it is indeed a hindrance to |

| W1:136.4 | Who but yourself evaluates a threat, decides escape is | necessary, and sets up a series of defenses to reduce the threat that |
| W1:183.11 | of God for your release, and it is given you. No prayer but this is | necessary, for it holds them all within it. words are insignificant |
| M:2.2 | In order to understand the teaching-learning plan of salvation, it is | necessary to grasp the concept of time which the course sets forth. |
| M:9.2 | Our curriculum trains for the relinquishment of judgment as the | necessary condition of salvation. |
| M:10.2 | in these terms does not mean anything. No more does “bad.” It is | necessary for the teacher of God to realize not that he should not |

| Tx:1.58 | Those who perceive and acknowledge that they have everything have no | need for driven behavior of any kind. |
| Tx:1.81 | When man returns to his original form of communication with God, the | need for miracles is over. The Holy Spirit mediates higher to lower |

| Tx:1.89 | in the creations of man. It is, in fact, the essential difference. A | need implies lack by definition. It involves the recognition that you |
| Tx:1.91 | and thus perceived himself as lacking. The concept of any sort of | need hierarchy arose because, having made this fundamental error, he |
| Tx:1.92 | Unified | need produces unified action, because it produces a lack of |
| Tx:1.92 | action, because it produces a lack of ambivalence. The concept of a | need hierarchy, a corollary to the original error that man can be |
| Tx:2.4 | “tree of knowledge” is also an overly literal figure. These concepts | need to be clarified before the real meaning of the separation, or |
| Tx:2.39 | was built into the space-time belief in order to set a limit on the | need for the belief and ultimately to make learning complete. The |
| Tx:2.41 | miracle which serves it, does not abolish it. As long as there is | need for Atonement, there is need for time. But the Atonement as a |
| Tx:2.41 | not abolish it. As long as there is need for Atonement, there is | need for time. But the Atonement as a completed plan does have a |

| Tx:3.1 | on these earlier sections not to require their study. You will also | need them for preparation. Without this, you may become much too |
| Tx:3.4 | 1. The miracle abolishes the | need for lower-order concerns. Since it is an out-of-pattern time |
| Tx:3.18 | If you can accept the one generalization now, there will be no | need to learn from many smaller lessons. |
| Tx:3.46 | involves an exchange or translation, which knowledge does not | need. The interpretive function of perception, actually a distorted |
| Tx:3.52 | When you make something, you make it out of a sense of lack or | need. Anything that is made is made for a specific purpose and has no |

| Tx:4.12 | with me, but my goal will always be to absolve you finally from the | need for a teacher. |
| Tx:4.21 | to learn this lesson together, so we can be free of them together. I | need devoted teachers who share my aim of healing the mind. The Soul |
| Tx:4.21 | who share my aim of healing the mind. The Soul is far beyond the | need of your protection or mine. Remember this: |
| Tx:4.22 | In this world you | need not have tribulation because I have overcome the world. |
| Tx:4.26 | is as if you never had it. This willfulness is so apparent that one | need only perceive it to see that it does happen. If it can occur |
| Tx:4.26 | of how the mind can work, provided you fully recognize that it | need not work that way. Why are you surprised that something happened |
| Tx:4.27 | You forget the love that animals have for their own offspring and the | need they feel to protect them. This is because they regard them as |
| Tx:4.29 | of real self-preservation and are very likely to decide that you | need precisely what would hurt you most. Whether you know it now or |
| Tx:4.30 | as very weak and deprived, capable of functioning only as a thing in | need. |
| Tx:4.32 | All appetites are “getting” mechanisms, representing the ego's | need to confirm itself. This is as true of bodily appetites as it is |
| Tx:4.36 | does not apply to the Soul, which is not in danger and does not | need to be salvaged. Salvation is nothing more than |
| Tx:4.39 | on the ego in an attempt to unify their clearly unrelated data. It | need hardly be said that an attempt to relate the unrelated cannot |
| Tx:4.40 | ingenious forms. We do not have to explain anything. This is why we | need not trouble ourselves with inventiveness. The highly specific |
| Tx:4.47 | but salvation depends on disinhibiting the former. The reason you | need my help is because you have repressed your own Guide and |
| Tx:4.47 | my help is because you have repressed your own Guide and therefore | need guidance. My role is to separate the true from the false in your |
| Tx:4.57 | wrongly, and this is so whenever you are not joyous, then know this | need not be. In every case you have thought wrongly about some Soul |
| Tx:4.59 | When you are sad, know that this | need not be. Depression always arises ultimately from a sense of |
| Tx:4.60 | know that all anxiety comes from the capriciousness of the ego and | need not be. You can be as vigilant against the ego's dictates as for |
| Tx:4.61 | ego is in command because only the ego can experience guilt. This | need not be. |
| Tx:4.62 | vigilant against the demands of the ego to disengage yourself. This | need not be. |
| Tx:4.65 | God Himself shines in perfect light. To the ego's dark glass you | need but say, “I will not look there because I know these images are |
| Tx:4.95 | everything else it dictates. Its communication is controlled by its | need to protect itself, and it will disrupt communication when it |
| Tx:4.101 | from God. It is not enough until it is shared. God does not | need revelation returned to Him, which would clearly be impossible, |
| Tx:4.103 | as a movement is an improvement over the overt neglect of those in | need of help, but it is often little more than a painful attempt on |
| Tx:4.105 | A mind that recoils from a hurt body is in great | need of rehabilitation itself. All symptoms of hurt need true |
| Tx:4.105 | body is in great need of rehabilitation itself. All symptoms of hurt | need true helpfulness, and whenever they are met with this, the mind |
| Tx:4.105 | is not concerned either with the ego's fight for control or its | need to avoid and withdraw. You can do much on behalf of your own |
| Tx:5.11 | of the Atonement at the same time. Before that, there was no | need for healing and no one was comfortless. |
| Tx:5.21 | but you have let the belief in darkness enter your minds, and so you | need a new light. The Holy Spirit is the radiance that you must let |
| Tx:5.21 | breaks through into its own. Before the separation you did not | need guidance. You knew as you will know again, but as you do not |
| Tx:5.54 | I cannot forget my | need to teach what I have learned, which arose in me because I |
| Tx:5.75 | We | need cite only a few examples to see how the ego's interpretations |
| Tx:5.81 | patience towards the Sonship in the name of its Creator. What you | need to learn now is that only infinite patience can produce |
| Tx:5.90 | that you can plan for your safety and joy better than He can? You | need be neither careful nor careless; you need merely cast your cares |
| Tx:5.90 | better than He can? You need be neither careful nor careless; you | need merely cast your cares upon Him, because He careth for you. You |
| Tx:5.92 | last-ditch defense of its own existence. It reflects both the ego's | need to separate and your willingness to side with its separateness. |
| Tx:5.93 | urgent it is that you fulfill it. There is time for delay, but there | need not be. God weeps at the “sacrifice” of His Children, who |
| Tx:6.5 | that the crucifixion was the last foolish journey that the Sonship | need take and that it should mean release from fear to anyone who |
| Tx:6.11 | me with the sword, which I naturally refused, not being at all in | need of bodily protection. I am sorry when my brothers do not share |
| Tx:6.13 | and had healed many. We are still equal as learners, even though we | need not have equal experiences. The Holy Spirit is glad when you can |
| Tx:6.16 | you will know that you cannot either hurt or be hurt and that many | need your blessing to help them hear this for themselves. When you |
| Tx:6.16 | to help them hear this for themselves. When you perceive only this | need in them and do not respond to any other, you will have learned |
| Tx:6.23 | its lesson, too, has equal reality when it is learned.] I do not | need gratitude any more than I needed protection, but you need to |
| Tx:6.23 | I do not need gratitude any more than I needed protection, but you | need to develop your weakened ability to be grateful, or you cannot |
| Tx:6.23 | ability to be grateful, or you cannot appreciate God. He does not | need your appreciation, but you do. |
| Tx:6.29 | This invites Atonement automatically, because Atonement is the one | need which in this world is universal. To perceive yourself this way |
| Tx:6.34 | to God, because it has never left Him. If it has never left Him, you | need only perceive it as it is to be returned. The full awareness of |
| Tx:6.35 | and difficult. It is surely clear, however, that the perfect | need nothing and cannot experience perfection as a difficult |
| Tx:6.42 | totally harmless. Once it can accept this fully, it does not see the | need to protect itself. The protection of God then dawns upon it, |
| Tx:6.45 | Spirit will be glad when He has brought you home and you no longer | need His guidance. The ego does not regard itself as part of you. |
| Tx:6.48 | do believe it you will not side with it, and the ego feels badly in | need of allies though not of brothers. Perceiving something alien to |
| Tx:6.54 | and thus side with the belief that those who have everything | need help and are therefore helpless. This is the kind of “reasoning” |
| Tx:6.58 | between sleeping and waking, so that they will understand they | need not be afraid of dreams. Then when bad dreams come, they will |
| Tx:6.59 | what you must avoid to escape from harm so much as what you | need to learn to have joy. This is true even of the world's teachers. |
| Tx:6.72 | Increasing motivation for change in the learner is all that a teacher | need do to guarantee change. This is because a change in motivation |
| Tx:6.88 | the Holy Spirit will ultimately be able to teach you that you | need not choose at all. This will finally liberate your will from |
| Tx:6.95 | must now turn your effort against it. Only this can cancel out the | need for effort and call upon the being which you both have and are. |
| Tx:7.9 | as sick, he is perceiving himself as not whole and therefore in | need. If you too see him this way, you are seeing him as if he were |
| Tx:7.18 | no translation, because it is perfectly understood, but it does | need extension because it means extension. Communication is perfectly |
| Tx:7.27 | of you, since the ego perceives itself as at war and therefore in | need of allies. You who are not at war must look for brothers and |
| Tx:7.28 | of competition has entered their minds. Do not underestimate your | need to be vigilant against this idea, because all your conflicts |
| Tx:7.33 | Truth can only be recognized and | need only be recognized. Inspiration is of the Spirit, and certainty |
| Tx:7.39 | of the ego's decision in this matter are so apparent that they | need no elaboration here, but the Holy Spirit's decision to use the |
| Tx:7.39 | communication has such a direct connection with healing that it does | need clarification. The unhealed healer obviously does not understand |
| Tx:7.40 | that the body can both communicate and create and therefore does not | need the mind. The ego thus tries to teach you that the body can act |
| Tx:7.51 | Him Who created you. Our brothers are forgetful. That is why they | need your remembrance of me and Him who created me. Through this |
| Tx:7.63 | that two totally contradictory thought systems share truth, your | need for vigilance is apparent. Your minds are dividing their |
| Tx:7.72 | acts insanely, he is offering you an opportunity to bless him. His | need is yours. You need the blessing you can offer him. There is no |
| Tx:7.72 | is offering you an opportunity to bless him. His need is yours. You | need the blessing you can offer him. There is no way for you to have |
| Tx:7.73 | You do not | need God's blessing since that you have forever, but you do need |
| Tx:7.73 | do not need God's blessing since that you have forever, but you do | need yours. The picture you see of yourselves is deprived, unloving, |
| Tx:7.102 | That is why you | need to demonstrate the obvious to yourself. It is not obvious to |
| Tx:8.1 | in a course for knowing on the grounds that you do not know. The | need for the course is implicit in your objection. Knowledge is not |
| Tx:8.3 | of reality which you must make to secure peace, and the only one you | need ever make. |
| Tx:8.17 | Holy Spirit knows how to teach this, but you do not. That is why you | need Him and why God gave Him to you. Only His teaching will release |
| Tx:8.41 | want to share it you will. I give it willingly and gladly, because I | need you as much as you need me. |
| Tx:8.41 | I give it willingly and gladly, because I need you as much as you | need me. |
| Tx:8.67 | yours is unified, it is His. Interfere with His purpose, and you | need salvation. You have condemned yourself, but condemnation is not |
| Tx:8.76 | is a witness to your frailty, your vulnerability, and your extreme | need to depend on external guidance. The ego uses this as its best |
| Tx:8.76 | external guidance. The ego uses this as its best argument for your | need for its guidance. It dictates endless prescriptions for avoiding |
| Tx:8.81 | it is. And this part only is up to you. The rest is of itself. You | need do so little, because it is so powerful that your little part |
| Tx:9.8 | is for. God gave you the function to create in eternity. You do not | need to learn this, but you do need to learn to want this, and for |
| Tx:9.8 | to create in eternity. You do not need to learn this, but you do | need to learn to want this, and for this all learning was made. This |
| Tx:9.8 | This is the Holy Spirit's good use of an ability which you do not | need, but which you have made. Give it to Him! You do not know how to |
| Tx:9.36 | place in eternity because they are reparative. Yet while you still | need healing, your miracles are the only witnesses to your reality |
| Tx:9.36 | be separated. When you have learned that they are the same, the | need for time is over. |
| Tx:9.97 | It is because you did not make yourselves that you | need be troubled by nothing. Your gods are nothing, because your |
| Tx:10.4 | this journey alone. I will lead you to your true Father, Who hath | need of you as I have. Will you not answer the call of love with joy? |
| Tx:10.5 | You have learned your | need of healing. Would you bring anything else to the Sonship, |
| Tx:10.5 | Would you bring anything else to the Sonship, recognizing your | need of healing for yourself? For in this lies the beginning of |
| Tx:10.20 | trust His patience, for He cannot leave a part of God. Yet you | need far more than patience. |
| Tx:10.21 | the little spark and are willing to let it grow. Your willingness | need not be perfect, because His is. If you will merely offer Him a |
| Tx:10.24 | God's Son is indeed in | need of comfort, for he knows not what he does, believing his will is |
| Tx:10.31 | it is yours, and belonging to you, it is His. Your Soul does not | need salvation, but your mind needs to learn what salvation is. You |
| Tx:10.39 | at them, for not looking is the way they are protected. There is no | need to shrink from illusions, for they cannot be dangerous. We are |
| Tx:10.57 | that they have beheld God's Son, and in the Presence of Christ they | need demonstrate nothing, for Christ speaks to them of Himself and of |
| Tx:10.75 | away. As long as you think you know its meaning, you will see no | need to ask it of Him. |
| Tx:10.76 | accepted no guide at all. Instruction in perception is your great | need, for you understand nothing. Recognize this but do not accept |
| Tx:10.89 | understand them, and because you are deceived by what you see, you | need reality to dispel your fears. |
| Tx:11.4 | calls for help as exactly what they are except your own perceived | need to attack. It is only this that makes you willing to engage in |
| Tx:11.4 | endless “battles” with reality in which you deny the reality of the | need for healing by making it unreal. You would not do this except |
| Tx:11.6 | for help, you are refusing help. Would you maintain that you do not | need it? Yet this is what you are maintaining when you refuse to |
| Tx:11.6 | you will not perceive God's answer to you. The Holy Spirit does not | need your help in interpreting motivation, but you do need His. Only |
| Tx:11.6 | does not need your help in interpreting motivation, but you do | need His. Only appreciation is an appropriate response to your |
| Tx:11.7 | hear his call for the help of God, and you will recognize your own | need for the Father. |
| Tx:11.8 | Your interpretations of your brother's | need is your interpretation of yours. By giving help you are asking |
| Tx:11.8 | By giving help you are asking for it, and if you perceive but one | need in yourself, you will be healed. For you will recognize God's |
| Tx:11.8 | of your Father closer to your awareness. For the sake of your | need, then, hear every call for help as what it is, so God can answer |
| Tx:11.9 | from it, although the recognition is necessary to demonstrate the | need for escape. The Holy Spirit must still translate it into truth. |
| Tx:11.9 | from reality, not towards it. Yet we have repeatedly emphasized the | need to recognize fear and face it without disguise as a crucial step |
| Tx:11.24 | have invested wrongly, and they are poor indeed! Because they are in | need, it is given you to help them since you are among them. Consider |
| Tx:11.24 | poverty is lack, and there is but one lack since there is but one | need. |
| Tx:11.26 | invested as they had, it would never occur to you to overlook their | need. |
| Tx:11.38 | quite apparent that it had not taught you the response pattern you | need. The ego will therefore distort love and teach you that love |
| Tx:11.43 | it is undivided. The strong do not attack because they see no | need to do so. Before the idea of attack can enter your mind, you |
| Tx:11.44 | failed to weaken you, you are still strong. You therefore have no | need to “equalize” the situation to establish your strength. |
| Tx:11.46 | with your own content. Yet creation is not of you, and poor learners | need special teaching. You have learning handicaps in a very literal |
| Tx:11.52 | not divided, and the means and the end are in complete accord. You | need offer only undivided attention. Everything else will be given |
| Tx:11.65 | As long as you believe you have two functions, so long will you | need correction. For this belief is the destruction of peace, a goal |
| Tx:11.88 | because he has never condemned. The Atonement is the final lesson he | need learn, for it teaches him that, never having sinned, he has no |
| Tx:11.88 | need learn, for it teaches him that, never having sinned, he has no | need of salvation. |
| Tx:11.97 | associated with expiation, and only guilt could induce a sense of | need for expiation. Accepting the guiltlessness of the Son of God as |
| Tx:12.10 | for the Holy Spirit to show it to you and dispel it, without the | need for you to raise it to awareness yourself. Yet there is one more |
| Tx:12.16 | the pain in this mind is so apparent when it is uncovered that its | need of healing cannot be denied. Not all the tricks and games you |
| Tx:12.30 | The Holy Spirit interprets time's purpose as rendering the | need for it unnecessary. Thus does He regard the function of time as |
| Tx:12.59 | are no stores where people buy an endless list of things they do not | need. It is not lit with artificial light, and night comes not upon |
| Tx:12.62 | of this strange world you made but do not want. The only effort you | need make to give this world away in glad exchange for what you did |
| Tx:12.68 | Your Father knoweth that you have | need of nothing. In Heaven this is so, for what could you need in |
| Tx:12.68 | you have need of nothing. In Heaven this is so, for what could you | need in eternity? In your world you do need things because it is a |
| Tx:12.68 | is so, for what could you need in eternity? In your world you do | need things because it is a world of scarcity in which you find |
| Tx:12.68 | yes! As Mediator between the two worlds, He knows what you have | need of and what will not hurt you. Ownership is a dangerous concept |
| Tx:12.69 | Everything that the ego tells you that you | need will hurt you. For although the ego urges you again and again to |
| Tx:12.69 | have gotten in its name. Therefore ask not of yourselves what you | need, for you do not know and your advice unto yourself will hurt |
| Tx:12.69 | and your advice unto yourself will hurt you. For what you think you | need will merely serve to tighten up your world against the light and |
| Tx:12.70 | Only the Holy Spirit knows what you | need. For He will give you all things that do not block the way to |
| Tx:12.70 | things that do not block the way to light. And what else could you | need? In time He gives you all the things that you need have and will |
| Tx:12.70 | else could you need? In time He gives you all the things that you | need have and will renew them as long as you have need of them. He |
| Tx:12.70 | things that you need have and will renew them as long as you have | need of them. He will take nothing from you as long as you have any |
| Tx:12.70 | need of them. He will take nothing from you as long as you have any | need of it. And yet He knows that everything you need is temporary |
| Tx:12.70 | as you have any need of it. And yet He knows that everything you | need is temporary and will but last until you step aside from all |
| Tx:12.73 | The Holy Spirit leads me unto Christ, and where else would I go? What | need have I but to awake in Him? |
| Tx:12.75 | the gift of God. Hold me dear, for what except your brothers can you | need? We will restore to you the peace of mind that we must find |
| Tx:12.75 | teach you to awaken unto us and to yourself. This is the only real | need to be fulfilled in time. Salvation from the world lies only |
| Tx:13.7 | your individual concern. You, who are part of it and all of it, | need only realize that it is of the Father, not of you. Your role in |
| Tx:13.9 | is perfect, as are the miracles which you created in His name. They | need no healing, nor do you when you know them. |
| Tx:13.40 | You will not remember change and shift in Heaven. You have | need of contrast only here. Contrast and differences are necessary |
| Tx:13.40 | When you have learned this, you will find the answer that makes the | need for any differences disappear. Truth comes of its own will unto |
| Tx:13.40 | flow lightly over you without a difference of any kind. For you will | need no contrast to help you realize that this is what you want, and |
| Tx:13.48 | If you are blessed and do not know it, you | need to learn it must be so. The knowledge is not taught, but its |
| Tx:13.49 | a world made of denial and without direction. You will perceive the | need for this if you will realize that to deny is the decision not to |
| Tx:13.58 | Let Me make the one distinction for you which you cannot make but | need to learn. Your faith in nothing is deceiving you. Offer your |
| Tx:13.74 | given them because it is holy and will bring to them all that they | need, coming as naturally as peace that knows no limits. There is |
| Tx:13.74 | strain, or the impossible burden of deciding what they want and | need alone. |
| Tx:13.75 | gladly offers you. He offers you but what God gave Him for you. You | need not decide whether or not you are deserving of it. God knows you |
| Tx:13.87 | Presence next to you but cannot know that you are one with Him. This | need not be taught. Learning applies only to the condition in which |
| Tx:13.89 | you escape this guilt by failing to fulfill your function here? You | need not understand creation to do what must be done before that |
| Tx:14.9 | the guiltlessness which must have been denied to produce | need of healing. Do not withhold this glad acknowledgment, for hope |
| Tx:14.9 | can freedom from pain be his. Yet those who have failed to learn | need teaching, not attack. To attack those who have need of teaching |
| Tx:14.9 | failed to learn need teaching, not attack. To attack those who have | need of teaching is to fail to learn from them. |
| Tx:14.40 | you from everything that it is not. The Atonement is so gentle you | need but whisper to it, and all its power will rush to your |
| Tx:14.42 | in it. Earth can reflect Heaven or hell; God or the ego. You | need but leave the mirror clean and clear of all the images of hidden |
| Tx:14.43 | that is in him. He recognizes it because he has been taught his | need for it but knows not where to look to find it. Let him, then, |
| Tx:14.52 | recognize love or to believe that everything else is nothing but a | need for love. You are too bound to form and not to content. What you |
| Tx:14.56 | Let the Holy Spirit show him to you and teach you both his love and | need for love. Neither his mind nor yours holds more than these two |
| Tx:14.57 | must give it to you because of what it is. But where there is | need for love, you must give it because of what you are. Long ago we |
| Tx:14.64 | taught yourselves. How would you know? Your part is very simple. You | need only recognize that everything you learned you do not want. Ask |
| Tx:14.73 | of Him. Call not upon the ego for anything. It is only this that you | need do. The Holy Spirit will, of Himself, fill every mind that so |
| Tx:14.74 | His sight, He gives the gift of peace to everyone who perceives the | need for peace and who would have it. Make way for peace, and it will |
| Tx:15.1 | you learn only of Him. When this has happened, you will no longer | need a teacher or time in which to learn. |
| Tx:15.12 | the Holy Spirit for your salvation? He asks no more, for He has no | need of more. It takes far longer to teach you how to be willing to |
| Tx:15.32 | gifts to offer to yourselves, for you will know you are complete, in | need of nothing, and unable to accept anything for yourself. But you |
| Tx:15.32 | yourself. But you will gladly give, having received. The host of God | need not seek to find anything. |
| Tx:15.43 | you would have it. Yet it would not be Atonement if there were no | need for Atonement. You will not be able to accept perfect |
| Tx:15.49 | result in pain if you offer Him your willingness to have it serve no | need but His. All the guilt in it arises from your use of it. All the |
| Tx:15.49 | your imagined needs, which would destroy the relationship. Your only | need is His. |
| Tx:15.53 | free of the past, you see that love is in you, and you have no | need to look without and snatch it guiltily from where you thought it |
| Tx:15.55 | judge the Self of God? God has created it beyond judgment out of His | need to extend His Love. With love in you, you have no need except to |
| Tx:15.55 | out of His need to extend His Love. With love in you, you have no | need except to extend it. In the holy instant, there is no conflict |
| Tx:15.62 | me the Holy Spirit gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no | need that you perceive obscure your need of this. For in the holy |
| Tx:15.62 | you, as you will give it. Let no need that you perceive obscure your | need of this. For in the holy instant, you will recognize the only |
| Tx:15.62 | need of this. For in the holy instant, you will recognize the only | need the aspects of the Son of God share equally, and by this |
| Tx:15.74 | which the ego accepts for special relationships. Guilt is the only | need the ego has, and as long as you identify with it, guilt will |
| Tx:15.75 | be afraid to hear the Holy Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own | need to communicate. The Holy Spirit cannot teach through fear. And |
| Tx:15.78 | And you understand that your completion is God's, Whose only | need is to have you be complete. For your completion makes you His in |
| Tx:15.79 | The holy instant does not replace the | need for learning, for the Holy Spirit must not leave you as your |
| Tx:15.80 | Hear Him gladly and learn of Him that you have | need of no special relationships at all. You but seek in them what |
| Tx:15.80 | by desiring that it be all that there is. God's Son has such great | need of your willingness to strive for this that you cannot conceive |
| Tx:15.80 | of your willingness to strive for this that you cannot conceive of | need so great. Behold the only need that God and His Son share and |
| Tx:15.80 | for this that you cannot conceive of need so great. Behold the only | need that God and His Son share and will to meet together. You are |
| Tx:15.83 | teach you what you do not understand. God would respond to every | need, whatever form it takes. And so He has kept this channel open to |
| Tx:15.88 | yours. Yet your minds are already continuous, and their union | need only be accepted, and the loneliness in Heaven is gone. |
| Tx:15.89 | but let the Holy Spirit tell you of the love of God for you and the | need your creations have to be with you forever, you would experience |
| Tx:15.91 | and attack which the ego sees in it, you will learn you have no | need of a body at all. In the holy instant there are no bodies, and |
| Tx:15.101 | and as simple as opening your eyes to daylight when you have no more | need of sleep. |
| Tx:15.102 | idea of sacrifice loses all meaning. For He is Host to God. And you | need but invite Him in Who is there already, by recognizing that His |
| Tx:16.4 | the past upon my Guest. I have invited Him, and He is here. I | need do nothing except not to interfere. |
| Tx:16.63 | of the body is so diminished in your sight that you will see no | need at all to magnify it. For you will realize that the only value |
| Tx:16.67 | longing on the travesty it made of your relationships. Now no one | need suffer, for you have come too far to yield to the illusion of |
| Tx:16.69 | His perspective to give it to you completely. And your willingness | need not be complete because His is perfect. It is His task to atone |
| Tx:17.1 | “sins” are but his own imagining. His reality is forever sinless. He | need not be forgiven, but awakened. In his dreams he has betrayed |
| Tx:17.12 | no meaning. Who awake in Heaven could dream that there could ever be | need of salvation? |
| Tx:17.36 | the defense of truth. The truth itself needs no defense, but you do | need defense against your own acceptance of the gift of death. When |
| Tx:17.49 | can escape from your distress only by getting rid of each other. You | need not part entirely if you choose not to do so. But you must |
| Tx:17.75 | it enter, and it will call forth and secure for you the faith you | need for peace. But rise you not against it, for against your |
| Tx:18.7 | and separate in shifting and totally meaningless patterns which | need not be judged at all. To judge them individually is pointless. |
| Tx:18.29 | darkness in them is offered to the light and is removed forever. My | need for you, joined with me in the holy light of your relationship, |
| Tx:18.29 | you, joined with me in the holy light of your relationship, is your | need for salvation. Would I not give you what you gave to me? For |
| Tx:18.32 | far greater than you can understand. It is your realization that you | need do so little that enables Him to give so much. |
| Tx:18.33 | That is why you came. If you could come without them, you would not | need the holy instant. Come to it not in arrogance, assuming that you |
| Tx:18.34 | He wills to be, you must be interfering with His Will. You do not | need the strength of willingness to come from you, but only from His |
| Tx:18.37 | restore to me my own awareness of my readiness, which is eternal. I | need add nothing to His plan. But to receive it, I must be willing |
| Tx:18.39 | You make it difficult because you insist there must be more that you | need do. [You find it difficult to accept the idea that you need give |
| Tx:18.39 | that you need do. [You find it difficult to accept the idea that you | need give so little to receive so much.] And it is very hard for you |
| Tx:18.39 | the truth and makes it what it is. Yet we have emphasized that you | need understand nothing. Salvation is easy just because it asks |
| Tx:18.67 | restores the universe to both of you. You are prepared. Now you | need but to remember you need do nothing. It would be far more |
| Tx:18.67 | to both of you. You are prepared. Now you need but to remember you | need do nothing. It would be far more profitable now merely to |
| Tx:18.67 | by anyone, it always comes with just one happy realization: “I | need do nothing.” |
| Tx:18.68 | will one day find in his own way, at his own time. We do not | need this time. Time has been saved for you because you are together. |
| Tx:18.68 | me by only this one preparation and practice, doing nothing else. “I | need do nothing” is a statement of allegiance, a truly undivided |
| Tx:18.69 | To do anything involves the body. And if you recognize you | need do nothing, you have withdrawn the body's value from your mind. |
| Tx:18.69 | right now. For here is time denied and past and future gone. Who | need do nothing has no need for time. To do nothing is to rest and |
| Tx:18.69 | is time denied and past and future gone. Who need do nothing has no | need for time. To do nothing is to rest and make a place within you |
| Tx:18.95 | itself is still beyond the scope of our curriculum. Nor is there any | need for us to try to speak of what must forever lie beyond words. We |
| Tx:18.95 | for us to try to speak of what must forever lie beyond words. We | need remember only that whoever attains the real world, beyond which |
| Tx:19.39 | brothers truly. And the light in them will show you all that you | need to see. When the peace in you has been extended to encompass |
| Tx:19.39 | everyone, the Holy Spirit's function here will be accomplished. What | need is there for seeing then? When God has taken the last step |
| Tx:19.39 | His most holy Son. And the Father will accept them in His Name. What | need is there of seeing in the presence of His gratitude? |
| Tx:19.98 | He Who brought us here together will offer you the innocence you | need and that you will accept it for my love and His. |
| Tx:19.100 | To look upon the fear of God does | need some preparation. Only the sane can look on stark insanity and |
| Tx:19.101 | and forgiveness that would heal it gives way to fear. Brothers, you | need forgiveness of each other, for you will share in madness or in |
| Tx:20.8 | I have great | need for lilies, for the Son of God has not forgiven me. And can I |
| Tx:20.11 | you now. You will not see it with the body's eyes. Yet all you | need you have. |
| Tx:20.16 | condition are adjustments necessary because they are not true. Who | need adjust to truth, which calls on only what he is, to understand? |
| Tx:20.29 | and can no more enter than can their source. And therein lies your | need to see your brother sinless. In him is Heaven. See sin in him |
| Tx:20.32 | they are all the same. Yet those who know that they are all the same | need not salvation. And each one finds his savior when he is ready to |
| Tx:20.33 | The plan is not of you, nor | need you be concerned with anything except the part that has been |
| Tx:20.33 | will see to it without your help. But think not that He does not | need your part to help Him with the rest. For in your part lies all |
| Tx:20.36 | no stones to trip on and no obstacles to bar your way. Nothing you | need will be denied you. Not one seeming difficulty but will melt |
| Tx:20.36 | one seeming difficulty but will melt away before you reach it. You | need take thought for nothing, careless of everything except the only |
| Tx:20.41 | used only as the Holy Spirit teaches, it has no function, for minds | need not the body to communicate. The sight that sees the body has no |
| Tx:20.58 | end are still discrepant. And this produces great discomfort. This | need not be. This course requires almost nothing of you. It is |
| Tx:20.68 | Rejoice in what is yours but for the asking and think not that you | need make either means or end. All this is given you who would but |
| Tx:20.71 | Can such a savior help you? Would you turn in your distress and | need for help unto the helpless? Is the pitifully little the perfect |
| Tx:20.71 | Judgment will seem to make your savior weak. Yet it is you who | need his strength. There is no problem, no event or situation, no |
| Tx:20.74 | and the remedy. Believe them not, and they are gone. And all you | need to do is recognize you did this. Once you accept this simple |
| Tx:20.77 | happily beside them in dancing brooks that never waste away, who | need persuade you to accept the gift of vision? And after vision, who |
| Tx:20.77 | on this—you can behold the holiness God gave His Son. And never | need you think that there is something else for you to see. |
| Tx:21.5 | There is no | need to learn through pain. And gentle lessons are acquired joyously |
| Tx:21.13 | of you to learn this course. It is the same small willingness you | need to have your whole relationship transformed to joy; the little |
| Tx:21.14 | This is the only thing that you | need do for vision, happiness, release from pain, and the complete |
| Tx:21.20 | Perhaps you do not see the | need for you to give this little offering. Look closer, then, at what |
| Tx:21.32 | you have accepted them completely instead of yours, you will have | need of them no longer. For faith and vision and belief are |
| Tx:21.53 | Spirit can abide and where He is. He must have been there since the | need for Him arose and was fulfilled in the same instant. Such would |
| Tx:21.56 | exists. The partially insane have access to it, and only they have | need of it. Knowledge does not depend on it, and madness keeps it out. |
| Tx:21.72 | Those who are strong are never treacherous because they have no | need to dream of power and to act out their dream. How would an army |
| Tx:21.76 | that are the same. This final question, which is indeed the last you | need decide, still seems to hold a threat the rest have lost for you. |
| Tx:21.78 | to you that, as you look on the effects of sin in any form, all you | need do is simply ask yourself, |
| Tx:21.88 | if what you desire you receive and happiness is constant, then you | need ask for it but once to have it always. And if you do not have it |
| Tx:22.1 | long enslaved. Rejoice whom God hath joined have come together and | need no longer look on sin apart. No two can look on sin together, |
| Tx:22.2 | of what you both believed and saw. And with their going is the | need for sin gone with them. Who has need for sin? Only the lonely |
| Tx:22.2 | And with their going is the need for sin gone with them. Who has | need for sin? Only the lonely and alone who see their brothers |
| Tx:22.2 | themselves. It is this difference, seen but not real, that makes the | need for sin, not real but seen, seem justified. And all this would |
| Tx:22.8 | apart from His? Reason would tell you that this is no secret that | need be hidden as a sin. But a mistake indeed! Let not your fear of |
| Tx:22.9 | convey to you what you can see. It reaches you directly without a | need to be interpreted to you. What needs interpretation must be |
| Tx:22.12 | and make it plain. For his will be no alien tongue. He will | need no interpreter to you, for it was you who taught him what he |
| Tx:22.28 | All you | need do to dwell in quiet here with Christ is share His vision. |
| Tx:22.45 | What merely is needs no defense and offers none. Only illusions | need defense because of weakness. And how can it be difficult to walk |
| Tx:22.45 | You are the strong ones in this seeming conflict. And you | need no defense. Everything that needs defense you do not want, for |
| Tx:22.50 | Forget not, when you feel the | need arise to be defensive about anything, you have identified |
| Tx:23.6 | it is to walk clean and redeemed and happy through a world in bitter | need of the redemption that your innocence bestows upon it! What can |
| Tx:23.19 | laws that rule the world you made. And yet they govern nothing and | need not be broken; merely looked upon and gone beyond. |
| Tx:24.5 | the same. And difference of any kind imposes orders of reality and a | need to judge that cannot be escaped. |
| Tx:24.19 | has taken from him the gift that God would have him give to you. His | need to give it is as great as yours to have it. Let him forgive you |
| Tx:24.21 | Here is your savior from your specialness. He is in | need of your acceptance of himself as part of you, as you for his. |
| Tx:24.42 | in you looks only on the truth and sees no condemnation that could | need forgiveness. He is at peace because He sees no sin. Identify |
| Tx:24.44 | to guide. Be glad that only Christ can lend you His while you have | need of them. They are illusions too, as much as yours. And yet, |
| Tx:24.59 | It stands for you alone, as self-created, self-maintained, in | need of nothing, and unjoined with anything beyond the body. In its |
| Tx:25.21 | and you cannot separate yourself from him nor from his Father. You | need no forgiveness, for the wholly pure have never sinned. Give then |
| Tx:25.26 | the universe as God created it, but in some form adapted to the | need the Son of God believes he has. Corrected error is the error's |
| Tx:25.27 | here has entered darkness, yet no one has entered it alone. [Nor | need he stay more than an instant.] For he has come with Heaven's |
| Tx:25.30 | gentleness. It is not there in His forgiving eyes. And therefore it | need not be there in yours. Sin is the fixed belief perception cannot |
| Tx:25.31 | of himself? Is this a sin or a mistake, forgivable or not? Does he | need help or condemnation? Is it your purpose that he be saved or |
| Tx:25.37 | is no reason to perceive the Son of God as other than he is. The | need for guilt is gone because it has no purpose and is meaningless |
| Tx:25.41 | to offer you the gift of sight God gave to him for you! He has no | need but this—that you allow him freedom to complete the task God |
| Tx:25.63 | And so you would not learn it is your will to be without it. You | need not give it to Him wholly willingly, for if you could, you'd |
| Tx:25.63 | not give it to Him wholly willingly, for if you could, you'd have no | need of Him. But this He needs—that you prefer He take it than that |
| Tx:25.75 | it is impossible the Son of God could merit vengeance. You | need not perceive in every circumstance that this is true. Nor need |
| Tx:25.75 | You need not perceive in every circumstance that this is true. Nor | need you look to your experience within the world, which is but |
| Tx:25.75 | is really happening within yourself. The understanding which you | need comes not of you but from a larger Self, so great and holy that |
| Tx:25.75 | has found a witness unto his sinlessness and not his sin. How little | need you give the Holy Spirit that simple justice may be given you! |
| Tx:26.10 | the same respect and through the same approach. The aspects which | need solving do not change, whatever form the problem seems to take. |
| Tx:26.17 | memory of His love kept perfectly intact and undefiled. And all you | need to do is but to wish that Heaven be given you instead of hell, |
| Tx:26.25 | which total lack of limits lies. Nothing in boundless love could | need forgiveness. And what is charity within the world gives way to |
| Tx:26.28 | be feared? What other miracle is there but this? And what else | need there be to make the space between you disappear? |
| Tx:26.43 | at Heaven's gate. There is no hindrance to the Will of God nor any | need that you repeat again a journey that was over long ago. Look |
| Tx:26.90 | with justice and with love. If you perceive injustice anywhere, you | need but say: |
| Tx:27.2 | you make yourself to be the sign that he has lost his innocence and | need but look on you to realize that he has been condemned. And what |
| Tx:27.3 | you consent to suffer pain, to be deprived, unfairly treated, or in | need of anything, you but accuse your brother of attack upon God's |
| Tx:27.21 | even less, to reason with an argument for sickness such as this? And | need your healing be delayed because you pause to listen to insanity? |
| Tx:27.23 | your brother, different from you in that he is more guilty, thus in | need of your correction as the one more innocent than he. This splits |
| Tx:27.34 | to occupy the space so lately left unoccupied and vacant will not | need defense of any kind. For you will give it overwhelming |
| Tx:27.34 | thus is God left free to take the final step Himself. [For this you | need no pictures and no learning aids.] And what will ultimately take |
| Tx:27.45 | must be gone forever from your mind. For if it were, there'd be no | need for healing then. But it does mean, if only for an instant, you |
| Tx:27.53 | given you when you accept the healing for yourself. Its total value | need not be appraised by you to let you understand that you have |
| Tx:27.60 | Be witnesses unto the miracle and not the laws of sin. There is no | need to suffer any more. But there is need that you be healed, |
| Tx:27.60 | the laws of sin. There is no need to suffer any more. But there is | need that you be healed, because the suffering of the world has made |
| Tx:27.64 | as if the world were hurting you. And so it seems as if there is no | need to go beyond the obvious in terms of cause. |
| Tx:27.65 | There is indeed a | need. The world's escape from condemnation is a need which those |
| Tx:27.65 | There is indeed a need. The world's escape from condemnation is a | need which those within the world are joined in sharing. Yet they do |
| Tx:27.65 | world are joined in sharing. Yet they do not recognize their common | need. For each one thinks that if he does his part, the condemnation |
| Tx:27.67 | witness to the world of evil cannot speak except for what has seen a | need for evil in the world. And this is where your guilt was first |
| Tx:27.78 | things, and tosses them away for senseless things it does not | need and does not even want. It hires other bodies, that they may |
| Tx:27.89 | do not want to know. They seem to keep it secret from you. Yet you | need but learn you choose but not to listen, not to see. How |
| Tx:27.90 | separate from the world and kept your brother separate from you. Now | need you but to learn that both of you are innocent or guilty. The |
| Tx:28.10 | fear. No more have you. And so your innocence has not been lost. You | need no healing to be healed. In quietness, see in the miracle a |
| Tx:28.14 | has done nothing. And in seeing this, he understands he never had a | need for doing anything and never did. His Cause is Its effects. |
| Tx:28.25 | and the bodies which still seem to move about as separate things | need not be feared. And so they are not sick. |
| Tx:28.54 | and no doubts. It does not wonder what it is. And so it has no | need to be competitive. It can be victimized but cannot feel itself |
| Tx:28.60 | God asks for nothing, and His Son, like Him, | need ask for nothing. For there is no lack in him. An empty space, a |
| Tx:28.64 | judged apart from its foundation. If it rests on straw, there is no | need to bar the door and lock the windows and make fast the bolts. |
| Tx:29.1 | between you and His love through which you can escape if there be | need for you to flee. |
| Tx:29.42 | to crucify God's Son. For even though it was a dream of death, you | need not let it stand for this to you. Let this be changed, and |
| Tx:29.49 | of release in what appeared to be an endless circle of despair, you | need but to decide you do not know the purpose of the world. You give |
| Tx:29.56 | and lets the truth shine unencumbered, being what it is. It does not | need belief to be itself, for it has been created, so it is. An idol |
| Tx:29.62 | last while he is part of it. Judge not, for he who judges will have | need of idols which will hold the judgment off from resting on |
| Tx:29.64 | but dream, and idols are the toys you dream you play with. Who has | need of toys but children? They pretend they rule the world and give |
| Tx:29.66 | not to retain the toys of children. Put them all away, for you have | need of them no more. The dream of judgment is a children's game in |
| Tx:29.68 | Forgiving dreams have little | need to last. They are not made to separate the mind from what it |
| Tx:30.1 | becomes the focus of the curriculum. The goal is clear, but now you | need specific methods for attaining it. The speed by which it can be |
| Tx:30.1 | they are more ideas than rules of thought to you as yet. So now we | need to practice them awhile, until they are the rules by which you |
| Tx:30.1 | to make them habits now, so you will have them ready for whatever | need. |
| Tx:30.10 | you have decided by yourself and cannot see the question. Now you | need a quick restorative before you ask. |
| Tx:30.20 | being thrust upon you but is something that you want and that you | need, because you do not like the way you feel. This tiny opening |
| Tx:30.20 | will be enough to let you go ahead with just a few more steps you | need to let yourself be helped. |
| Tx:30.28 | dream of judgment has forever been undone. But meanwhile, you have | need for practicing the rules for its undoing. Let us, then, consider |
| Tx:30.38 | that, by limiting, is all attained. It is as if you said, “I have no | need of everything. This little thing I want, and it will be as |
| Tx:30.42 | Completion is the function of God's Son. He has no | need to seek for it at all. Beyond all idols stands his holy will to |
| Tx:30.42 | is not in him, he would not be as God created him. What idol can he | need to be himself? For can he give a part of him away? What is not |
| Tx:30.54 | simple choice that will forever place you far beyond deception. You | need not concern yourself with how this will be done, for this you |
| Tx:30.56 | is plain. Dreams are for nothing. And the Son of God can have no | need of them. They offer him no single thing that he could ever want. |
| Tx:30.62 | yourself and what you are, forgiveness washes joyfully away. Yet God | need not create His Son again that what is his be given back to him. |
| Tx:30.64 | recognized Whose hand you hold! Within your hand is everything you | need to walk with perfect confidence away from fear forever and to go |
| Tx:31.13 | which must be prepared, no time to be expended, and no plans that | need be laid for bringing in the new. There is an ancient battle |
| Tx:31.22 | will be no attack upon the things you thought were precious and in | need of care. There will be no assault upon your wish to hear a call |
| Tx:31.22 | you be asked to learn. But as you hear it, you will understand you | need but come away without the thoughts you did not want and that |
| Tx:31.29 | to learn, to pardon, nor enslave. It gives no orders that the mind | need serve nor sets conditions that it must obey. It holds in prison |
| Tx:31.46 | No one who makes a picture of himself omits this face, for he has | need of it. The other side he does not want to see. Yet it is here |
| Tx:31.52 | something be kept hidden? If the world be evil, there is still no | need to hide what you are made of. Who is there to see? And what but |
| Tx:31.52 | you are made of. Who is there to see? And what but is attacked could | need defense? |
| Tx:31.67 | of your trust; a happy place to rest in for a while, where nothing | need be feared but only loved. Who is unwelcome to the kind in heart? |
| Tx:31.72 | you may have the gift of kind forgiveness which you offer one whose | need for it is just the same as yours. And let the cruel concept of |
| Tx:31.73 | dooms you to a bitter sense of deep depression and futility. Yet it | need not be fixed unless you choose to hold it past the hope of |
| W1:I.2 | few minutes, and it does not matter where or when you do them. They | need no preparation. They are numbered, running from 1 to 365. The |
| W1:I.5 | meaning to you and show you they are true. Remember only this—you | need not believe them, you need not accept them, and you need not |
| W1:I.5 | they are true. Remember only this—you need not believe them, you | need not accept them, and you need not welcome them. Some of them you |
| W1:I.5 | this—you need not believe them, you need not accept them, and you | need not welcome them. Some of them you may actively resist. None of |
| W1:7.8 | not learning these new ideas about it. Yet that is precisely why you | need new ideas about time. This first time idea is not really so |
| W1:9.1 | are concerned with practice, not with understanding. You do not | need to practice what you really understand. It would indeed be |
| W1:9.3 | applying the idea for the day to whatever you see, remembering the | need for its indiscriminate application and the essential rule of |
| W1:23.6 | Besides using it throughout the day as the | need arises, five practice periods are required in applying today's |
| W1:34.7 | or worry, use the idea in its original form. If you find you | need more than one application of today's idea to help you change |
| W1:39.2 | see at once how direct and simple the text is, and you would not | need a workbook at all. No one needs practice to gain what is already |
| W1:39.6 | are unloving and therefore fearful. And so it is from them that you | need to be saved. |
| W1:40.2 | You | need not close your eyes for the exercise periods, although you will |
| W1:43.10 | more or less directly to today's idea is suitable. The thoughts | need not bear an obvious relationship to the idea, but they should |
| W1:46.1 | before forgiveness is necessary. Forgiveness is the great | need of this world, but that is because it is a world of illusions. |
| W1:46.11 | forgiven. No fear is possible in a mind beloved of God. There is no | need to attack, because Love has forgiven me. |
| W1:47.7 | it is hardly a sufficient one in giving you the confidence which you | need and to which you are entitled. You must also gain an awareness |
| W1:49.3 | We will | need at least four five-minute practice periods today and more if |
| W1:R1.4 | special settings in which to apply what you have learned. You will | need it most in situations which appear to be upsetting, rather than |
| W1:53.3 | such a world. I am grateful that this world is not real and that I | need not see it at all unless I choose to value it. And I do not |
| W1:56.3 | see reflects what I think I am, I realize that vision is my greatest | need. The world I see attests to the fearful nature of the self-image |
| W1:57.3 | the world I see. I made up the prison in which I see myself. All I | need do is recognize this, and I am free. I have deluded myself into |
| W1:61.5 | periods as possible should be undertaken today, although each one | need not exceed a minute or two. They should begin with telling |
| W1:64.10 | are not proficient in the mind discipline which it requires. You may | need to repeat “Let me not forget my function” quite often, to help |
| W1:65.10 | You | need not use these exact words, but try to get a sense of being |
| W1:66.12 | We | need great honesty today. Remember the outcomes fairly and consider |
| W1:67.6 | thoughts. You may also find that this is not sufficient and that you | need to continue adding other thoughts related to the truth about |
| W1:67.7 | today to practice the idea for today as often as you can. You | need to hear the truth about yourself as frequently as possible |
| W1:69.3 | to reach what is dearer to us than all else. Salvation is our only | need. There is no other purpose here and no other function to |
| W1:70.4 | you to be healed, and so He has kept the Source of healing where the | need for healing lies. You have tried to do just the opposite, making |
| W1:73.2 | world you see. The wishes of the ego gave rise to it, and the ego's | need for grievances, which are necessary to maintain it, peoples it |
| W1:79.9 | The shorter practice periods for today will not be set by time but by | need. You will see many problems today, each one calling for an |
| W1:85.4 | to sight. The light of the world will shine all this away. I have no | need for this. I want to see. |
| W1:90.7 | I | need not wait for this to be resolved. The answer to this problem is |
| W1:91.9 | If you are not a body, what are you? You | need to be aware of what the Holy Spirit uses to replace the image of |
| W1:91.9 | Holy Spirit uses to replace the image of a body in your mind. You | need to feel something to put your faith in, as you lift it from the |
| W1:91.9 | something to put your faith in, as you lift it from the body. You | need a real experience of something else, something more solid and |
| W1:92.3 | of itself—the small, the weak, the sickly and the dying, those in | need, the helpless and afraid, the sad, the poor, the starving, and |
| W1:95.4 | have seen the extent of your lack of mental discipline and of your | need for mind training. It is necessary that you be aware of this, |
| W1:95.19 | Do not forget today. We | need your help, your little part in bringing happiness to all the |
| W1:98.2 | have a mighty purpose to fulfill and have been given everything we | need with which to reach the goal. Not one mistake stands in our way, |
| W1:99.1 | same. They both imply that something has gone wrong—something you | need to be saved from or forgiven for, something amiss that needs |
| W1:99.2 | now, for both have happened. The impossible becomes the thing you | need forgiveness for, salvation from. Salvation is the borderland |
| W1:99.4 | one? What plan could hold the truth inviolate, yet recognize the | need illusions bring and offer means by which they are undone without |
| W1:99.14 | to Him who shares your function here, and let Him teach you what you | need to learn to lay all fear aside and know your Self as Love Which |
| W1:101.5 | You | need the practice periods today. The exercises teach sin is not real, |
| W1:102.7 | Be happy, for your only function here is happiness. You have no | need to be less loving to God's Son than He Whose Love created him as |
| W1:104.3 | are the gifts which are within us now, for they are timeless. And we | need not wait to have them. They belong to us today. Therefore we |
| W1:106.7 | throughout the world through you. The Bringer of all miracles has | need that you receive them first and thus become the joyous giver of |
| W1:107.5 | again. It stays exactly as it always was, to be depended on in every | need and trusted with a perfect trust in all the seeming difficulties |
| W1:110.2 | and misery and death do not exist. Today's idea is therefore all you | need to let complete correction heal your mind and give you perfect |
| W1:110.3 | All this has not occurred if you remain as God created you. You | need no thought but just this one to let redemption come to light the |
| W1:R3.10 | Here is another chance to use it well. In these reviews we stress the | need to let your learning not lie idly by between your longer |
| W1:R3.10 | Use one on the hour and the other one a half an hour later. You | need not give more than just a moment to each one. |
| W1:R3.12 | to serve you in all ways, all times and places, and whenever you | need help of any kind. Try, then, to take it with you in the business |
| W1:R3.14 | not forget how much you can learn now. Do not forget your Father's | need of you as you review these thoughts He gave to you. |
| W1:125.9 | Only be quiet. You will | need no rule but this to let your practicing today lift you above the |
| W1:126.8 | understand the truth that giver and receiver are the same. You will | need help to make this meaningful because it is so alien to the |
| W1:126.8 | alien to the thoughts to which you are accustomed. But the Help you | need is there. Give Him your faith today and ask Him that He share |
| W1:126.12 | All that I give is given to myself. The Help I | need to learn that this is true is with me now. And I will trust in |
| W1:128.1 | The world you see has nothing that you | need to offer you, nothing that you can use in any way, nor anything |
| W1:130.12 | to take the place of everything that hell would show to you. All you | need say to any part of hell, whatever form it takes, is simply this: |
| W1:132.19 | You | need not realize that healing comes to many brothers far across the |
| W1:134.2 | belongs to Him, reflects His laws and radiates His Love. Does this | need pardon? How can you forgive the sinless and eternally benign? |
| W1:134.12 | does not have to kill the dragons which he thought pursued him. Nor | need he erect the heavy walls of stone and iron doors he thought |
| W1:135.8 | The body is in | need of no defense. This cannot be too often emphasized. It will be |
| W1:135.9 | is not real. The body, valueless and hardly worth the least defense, | need merely be perceived as quite apart from you, and it becomes a |
| W1:135.11 | These are the thoughts in | need of healing, and the body will respond with health when they have |
| W1:135.22 | part of what was planned for us. We will be sure that everything we | need is given us for our accomplishment of this today. We make no |
| W1:135.25 | answers to another kind of question which remains unanswered yet in | need of answering until the Answer comes to you at last. |
| W1:136.20 | by food and drink, or any laws you made it serve before. You | need do nothing now to make it well, for sickness has become |
| W1:137.9 | teach how easily salvation can be yours, how little practice you | need undertake to let His laws replace the ones you made to hold |
| W1:138.4 | You | need to be reminded that you think a thousand choices are confronting |
| W1:139.5 | It is for this denial that you | need Atonement. Your denial made no change in what you are. But you |
| W1:139.7 | doubt and question that to ask what it must be is all the proof you | need to show that you believe the contradiction that you know not |
| W1:140.6 | Nor does it seek to heal what is not sick, unmindful where the | need for healing is. This is no magic. It is merely an appeal to |
| W1:140.8 | to us as our own thoughts—so close it is impossible to lose. We | need but seek it, and it must be found. |
| W1:140.11 | separately, but all of them as one. They are the same. We have no | need to make them different and thus delay the time when we can hear |
| W1:R4.11 | We add no other thoughts, but let them be the messages they are. We | need no more than this to give us happiness and rest and endless |
| W1:153.9 | We look past dreams today and recognize that we | need no defense because we are created unassailable, without all |
| W1:153.21 | from Him. These are His gifts to you. Defenselessness is all you | need to give Him in return. You lay aside but what was never real to |
| W1:154.1 | We have gone beyond such foolishness. We cannot judge ourselves, nor | need we do so. These are but attempts to hold decision off, and to |
| W1:154.9 | is part of your appointed role. He has not failed to offer what you | need, nor has it been left unaccepted. Yet another part of your |
| W1:155.3 | from the truth because they have denied that it is so. And so they | need a teacher who perceives their madness, but who still can look |
| W1:155.7 | on the way to happiness. Their suffering is but illusion. Yet they | need a guide to lead them out of it, for they mistake illusion for |
| W1:157.8 | in the same form in which you now appear, for you will have no | need of it. Yet now it has a purpose and will serve it well. Today we |
| W1:159.6 | locked, and no one is denied his least request or his most urgent | need. There is no sickness not already healed, no lack unsatisfied, |
| W1:159.6 | There is no sickness not already healed, no lack unsatisfied, no | need unmet within this golden treasury of Christ. |
| W1:159.8 | but they can never grow in its unnourishing and shallow soil. They | need the light and warmth and kindly care Christ's charity provides. |
| W1:159.8 | the light and warmth and kindly care Christ's charity provides. They | need the love with which He looks on them. And they become His |
| W1:161.4 | grasp abstraction in the sense that it is all-encompassing. We | need to see a little that we learn a lot. |
| W1:162.4 | Today we practice simply. For the words we use are mighty, and they | need no thoughts beyond themselves to change the mind of him who uses |
| W1:164.8 | Christ can come and offer you the treasure of salvation. He has | need of your most holy mind to save the world. |
| W1:165.4 | Deny not Heaven. It is yours today but for the asking. Nor | need you perceive how great the gift, how changed your mind will be |
| W1:165.5 | Ask with desire. You | need not be sure that you request the only thing you want. But when |
| W1:166.10 | He does not know about a plan so alien to His Will. There was a | need He did not understand, to which He gave an Answer. That is all. |
| W1:166.10 | an Answer. That is all. And you who have this Answer given you have | need no more of anything but this. |
| W1:169.9 | There is no | need to further clarify what no one in the world can understand. When |
| W1:169.12 | while a part of you remains outside, unknowing, unawakened, and in | need of you as witness to the truth? |
| W1:170.8 | to flame from him, he is but made of stone. He can do nothing. We | need not defy his power. He has none. And those who see in him their |
| W1:R5.10 | again the thoughts I brought to you from Him Who sees your bitter | need and knows the answer God has given Him. Together we review these |
| W1:R5.11 | Let this review be then your gift to me. For this alone I | need—that you will hear the words I speak and give them to the |
| W1:181.3 | today, we first let all such little focuses give way to our great | need to let our sinlessness become apparent. We instruct our minds |
| W1:184.9 | them forever; yet were asked to take a teaching function. You have | need to use the symbols of the world a while. But be you not deceived |
| W1:184.10 | Thus what you | need are intervals each day in which the learning of the world |
| W1:185.14 | It is this one intent we seek today, uniting our desires with the | need of every heart, the call of every mind, the hope that lies |
| W1:186.7 | this little pile of dust. What can it tell the holy Son of God? Why | need he be concerned with it at all? |
| W1:186.13 | that you have everything already. He has thoughts which answer every | need His Son perceives, although He sees them not. For Love must |
| W1:189.8 | Is it not He Who knows the way to you? You | need not know the way to Him. Your part is simply to allow all |
| W1:189.9 | reached. God knows His Son and knows the way to him. He does not | need His Son to show Him how to find His way. Through every opened |
| W1:190.4 | The time has come to laugh at such insane ideas. There is no | need to think of them as savage crimes or secret sins with weighty |
| W1:191.6 | you learn as well that you have freed the world. You have no | need to use it cruelly and then perceive this savage need in it. You |
| W1:191.6 | You have no need to use it cruelly and then perceive this savage | need in it. You set it free of your imprisonment. You will not see a |
| W1:191.7 | Be glad today how very easily is hell undone. You | need but tell yourself: |
| W1:192.2 | untruth can be undone. And who would pardon Heaven? Yet on earth you | need the means to let illusion go. Creation merely waits for your |
| W1:192.7 | nothing. But we have indeed been given everything by God. Yet do we | need forgiveness to perceive that this is so. Without its kindly |
| W1:193.2 | no contradictions. Yet His Son believes he sees them. Thus he has a | need for One Who can correct his erring sight and give him vision |
| W1:193.14 | proper aim, and do not let the time be less than meets your deepest | need. |
| W1:196.4 | as the mind relinquishes its burdens one by one. It is not time we | need for this. It is but willingness. And what would seem to need a |
| W1:196.4 | time we need for this. It is but willingness. And what would seem to | need a thousand years can easily be done in just one instant by the |
| W1:196.9 | If it can but be you you crucify, you did not hurt the world and | need not fear its vengeance and pursuit. Nor need you hide in terror |
| W1:196.9 | not hurt the world and need not fear its vengeance and pursuit. Nor | need you hide in terror from the deadly fear of God projection hides |
| W1:198.8 | by thoughts like these, and unaware of any condemnation which could | need forgiveness. Dreams of any kind are strange and alien to the |
| W1:199.4 | innocence, and you are free. The body disappears because you have no | need of it except the need the Holy Spirit sees. For this, the body |
| W1:199.4 | free. The body disappears because you have no need of it except the | need the Holy Spirit sees. For this, the body will appear as useful |
| W1:200.9 | sure, and He will guide our footsteps. He will not desert His Son in | need, nor let him stray forever from his home. The Father calls; the |

| W2:I.2 | our hourly remembrance in between, calling to God when we have | need of Him as we are tempted to forget our goal. |
| W2:I.3 | that thought to introduce our times of rest and calm our minds at | need. Yet we will not content ourselves with simple practicing in the |

| W2:I.10 | done. For in this final section we will come to understand that we | need only call to God and all temptations disappear. Instead of |
| W2:I.10 | only call to God and all temptations disappear. Instead of words, we | need but feel His Love. Instead of prayer, we need but call His Name. |
| W2:I.10 | Instead of words, we need but feel His Love. Instead of prayer, we | need but call His Name. Instead of judging, we need but be still and |
| W2:I.10 | Instead of prayer, we need but call His Name. Instead of judging, we | need but be still and let all things be healed. We will accept the |
| W2:226.2 | my glad return. Your arms are open, and I hear Your Voice. What | need have I to linger in a place of vain desires and of broken dreams |
| W2:229.1 | find it in these words: “Love, Which created me, is what I am.” Now | need I seek no more. Love has prevailed. So still it waited for my |
| W2:230.2 | into Your Mind is shining there unchanged. I am as You created me. I | need but call on You to find the peace You gave. It is Your will that |
| W2:WS.2 | God's Son the instant that his mind had thought of war. There was no | need for such a thought before, for peace was given without opposite |
| W2:WS.2 | opposite and merely was. But when the mind is split, there is a | need of healing. So the thought which has the power to heal the split |
| W2:235.1 | I | need but look upon all things that seem to hurt me and with perfect |

| W2:235.1 | is only happiness to find that only happiness has come to me. And I | need but remember that His Love surrounds His Son and keeps his |
| W2:244.1 | Your Son is safe wherever he may be, for You are there with him. He | need but call upon Your Name, and he will recollect his safety and |
| W2:WIS.1 | gave the body eyes, for what is there the sinless would behold? What | need have they of sights or sounds or touch? What would they hear or |
| W2:251.1 | and found despair. Now do I seek but one, for in that one is all I | need and only what I need. All that I sought before I needed not and |
| W2:251.1 | Now do I seek but one, for in that one is all I need and only what I | need. All that I sought before I needed not and did not even want. My |
| W2:251.1 | All that I sought before I needed not and did not even want. My only | need I did not recognize. But now I see that I need only truth. In |
| W2:251.1 | even want. My only need I did not recognize. But now I see that I | need only truth. In that, all needs are satisfied, all cravings end, |
| W2:251.1 | fulfilled, and dreams are gone. Now have I everything that I could | need. Now have I everything that I could want. And now at last I find |
| W2:256.1 | is no other way. If sin had not been cherished by the mind, what | need would there have been to find a way to where you are? Who would |
| W2:267.1 | with the purpose of forgiveness. Now my mind is healed, and all I | need to save the world is given me. Each heartbeat brings me peace; |
| W2:WIC.5 | look on nothing else. As we behold His glory will we know we have no | need of learning or perception or of time, or anything except the |
| W2:273.1 | disturbance, let us learn how to dismiss it and return to peace. We | need but tell our minds with certainty, “The stillness of the peace |
| W2:273.2 | Father, Your peace is mine. What | need have I to fear that anything can rob me of what You would have |
| W2:275.2 | Voice protects all things today, and so I leave all things to You. I | need be anxious over nothing. For Your Voice will tell me what to do |
| W2:276.1 | of who our Father is, and for what purpose we have come. And yet we | need but to acknowledge Him Who gave His Word to us in our creation, |
| W2:286.1 | the time in which I come to understand the lesson that there is no | need that I do anything. In You is every choice already made. In You |
| W2:WIRW.3 | What | need has such a mind for thoughts of death, attack, and murder? What |
| W2:WIRW.5 | The Holy Spirit has no | need of time when it has served His purpose. Now He waits but that |
| W2:324.2 | So let us follow One Who knows the way. We | need not tarry, and we cannot stray except an instant from His loving |
| W2:327.1 | and loves me still, awaiting but my call to give me all the help I | need to come to Him. |
| W2:337.1 | for myself and nothing more. God has already done all things that | need be done. And I must learn I need do nothing of myself, for I |
| W2:337.1 | has already done all things that need be done. And I must learn I | need do nothing of myself, for I need but accept my Self, my |
| W2:337.1 | need be done. And I must learn I need do nothing of myself, for I | need but accept my Self, my sinlessness, created for me, now already |
| W2:345.1 | seen to work. The miracles I give are given back in just the form I | need to help me with the problems I perceive. Father, in Heaven it is |
| W2:348.1 | for anything except the perfect peace and joy I share with You. What | need have I for anger or for fear? Surrounding me is perfect safety. |
| W2:355.1 | gave Your Son in exile. I am sure my treasure waits for me, and I | need but reach out my hand to find it. Even now my fingers touch it. |
| W2:355.1 | hand to find it. Even now my fingers touch it. It is very close. I | need not wait an instant more to be at peace forever. It is You I |
| W2:361.1 | And if I | need a word to help me, He will give it to me. If I need a thought, |
| W2:361.1 | And if I need a word to help me, He will give it to me. If I | need a thought, that will He also give. And if I need but stillness |
| W2:361.1 | give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He also give. And if I | need but stillness and a tranquil, open mind, these are the gifts I |
| W2:E.1 | to Him and ask it of Him. He will not withhold all answers that you | need for anything that seems to trouble you. He knows the way to |
| W2:E.1 | all problems and resolve all doubts. His certainty is yours. You | need but ask it of Him, and it will be given you. |
| W2:E.2 | accepted as your Voice, to speak of what you really want and really | need. His is the Voice for God, and also yours. And thus He speaks of |
| W2:E.3 | No more specific lessons are assigned, for there is no more | need of them. Henceforth, hear but the Voice for God and for your |
| M:4.5 | must go through what might be called “a period of undoing.” This | need not be painful, but it usually is so experienced. It seems as if |
| M:4.15 | Therefore God's teachers are wholly gentle. They | need the strength of gentleness, for it is in this that the function |
| M:4.16 | song of thanks. And Christ looks down on them in thanks as well. His | need of them is just as great as theirs of Him. How joyous it is to |
| M:4.17 | teachers have learned how to be simple. They have no dreams that | need defense against the truth. They do not try to make themselves. |
| M:4.17 | from their understanding Who created them. And does what God created | need defense? No one can become an advanced teacher of God until he |
| M:5.4 | proportion in which the valuelessness of sickness is recognized. One | need but say, “There is no gain to me at all in this,” and he is |
| M:7.3 | gives the gifts he has received. Yet he must first accept them. He | need do no more, nor is there more that he could do. By accepting |
| M:10.6 | —all these have come of it. And now he knows that these things | need not be. Not one is true. For he has given up their cause, and |
| M:12.2 | God's teachers appear to be many, for that is the world's | need. Yet being joined in one purpose, and one they share with God, |
| M:12.3 | His messages directly through the Spirit Which gave them. They | need a medium through which communication becomes possible to those |
| M:12.3 | come only where it is welcomed without fear. So do God's teachers | need a body, for their unity could not be recognized directly. |
| M:13.8 | course and it is yours. God holds out His Word to you, for He has | need of teachers. What other way is there to save His Son? |
| M:14.1 | illusions is the belief that they have a purpose; that they serve a | need or gratify a want. Perceived as purposeless, they are no longer |
| M:14.2 | was made and guilt seemed real. Here is His home, for here there is | need of Him indeed. He brings the ending of the world with Him. It is |
| M:14.4 | is the function of the teacher of God in this concluding lesson? He | need merely learn how to approach it, to be willing to go in its |
| M:14.4 | learn how to approach it, to be willing to go in its direction. He | need merely trust that, if God's Voice tells him it is a lesson he |
| M:16.2 | yet there are obvious advantages in terms of saving time if the | need for this can be avoided. |
| M:16.3 | structured practice periods which the workbook contains, individual | need becomes the chief consideration. |
| M:16.6 | Your defenses will not work, but you are not in danger. You have no | need of them. Recognize this, and they will disappear. And only then |
| M:16.7 | is safe and knows it to be so. He has a Guide Who will not fail. He | need make no distinctions among the problems he perceives, for He to |
| M:16.7 | because they are all one to God. This is his safety. And he has no | need for more than this. |
| M:16.8 | along the way the teacher of God has yet to travel, and he has | need of reminding himself throughout the day of his protection. How |
| M:17.2 | shown than in the kinds of help the teacher gives to those who | need his aid? Here is his gift most clearly given him. For he will |
| M:17.8 | next step. The interpretation can be changed at last. Magic thoughts | need not lead to condemnation, for they do not really have the power |
| M:19.1 | injustices aside. If God's Son were fairly judged, there would be no | need for salvation. The thought of separation would have been forever |
| M:22.4 | result of the recognition by God's teacher of Who it is that is in | need of healing. This recognition has no special reference. It is |
| M:23.7 | in time of trouble? A savior who can symbolize Himself? Yet do we | need a many-faceted curriculum, not because of content differences |
| M:23.7 | differences but because symbols must shift and change to suit the | need. Jesus has come to answer yours. In him you find God's Answer. |
| M:24.4 | will be told about it. He will also be told how to use it. What more | need he know? |
| M:24.5 | not the end. Yet even this much is not required of the beginner. He | need merely accept the idea that what he knows is not necessarily all |
| M:25.6 | the power, the greater its potential usefulness. Salvation has | need of all abilities, for what the world would destroy, the Holy |
| M:26.3 | their helpfulness to those remaining behind are few indeed. And they | need helpers who are still in bondage and still asleep, so that by |
| M:26.4 | delayed. All the help you can accept will be provided, and not one | need you have will not be met. Let us not, then, be too concerned |
| M:26.4 | and welcomes you. What more could you desire, when this is all you | need? |
| M:27.1 | and dying in the end? We have asked this question before, but now we | need to consider it still more carefully. It is the one fixed, |
| M:29.1 | Others might do better to begin with the workbook. Still others may | need to start at the more abstract level of the text. |

| Tx:1.45 | The Soul never loses its communion with God. Only the mind | needs Atonement. The miracle joins in the Atonement of Christ by |
| Tx:1.89 | anyone unless he wants to learn it and believes in some way that he | needs it. While the concept of lack does not exist in the creation of |

| Tx:1.90 | for human action. All behavior is essentially motivated by | needs, but behavior itself is not a divine attribute. The body is the |
| Tx:1.91 | Each one acts according to the particular hierarchy of | needs he establishes for himself. His hierarchy, in turn, depends on |

| Tx:5.47 | can increase as you are willing to return the part of your mind that | needs healing to the higher part and thus render your creating |
| Tx:6.29 | inclusion. Perceiving equality, the Holy Spirit perceives equal | needs. This invites Atonement automatically, because Atonement is the |
| Tx:6.93 | awareness of its wholeness does. It is only your awareness which | needs protection since your being cannot be assailed. Yet a real |
| Tx:6.95 | recognition is wholly without effort since it is already true and | needs no protection. It is in the perfect safety of God. Therefore |
| Tx:7.6 | explain in words because words are symbols, and nothing that is true | needs to be explained. However, the Holy Spirit has the task of |
| Tx:7.18 | it is also you, you share it and extend it as your Creator did. This | needs no translation, because it is perfectly understood, but it does |
| Tx:7.38 | in both of you, because it is a refusal to acknowledge fear. Love | needs only this invitation. It comes freely to all the Sonship, being |
| Tx:7.94 | and you are not whole. A split mind cannot perceive its fullness and | needs the miracle of its wholeness to dawn upon it and heal it. This |

| Tx:10.18 | fail to understand. You can heal only yourself, for only God's Son | needs healing. He needs it because he does not understand himself and |
| Tx:10.18 | You can heal only yourself, for only God's Son needs healing. He | needs it because he does not understand himself and therefore knows |
| Tx:10.20 | Guest remains, but His Voice grows faint in alien company. He | needs your protection, but only because your care is a sign that you |
| Tx:10.31 | to you, it is His. Your Soul does not need salvation, but your mind | needs to learn what salvation is. You are not saved from anything, |

| Tx:14.43 | The reflection of God | needs no interpretation. It is clear. Clean but the mirror, and the |
| Tx:14.67 | depend for miracles has been provided for you. God's Son can make no | needs His Father will not meet if he but turn to Him ever so little. |
| Tx:15.15 | Time is your friend if you leave it to the Holy Spirit to use. He | needs but very little to restore God's whole power to you. He Who |

| Tx:15.46 | aspects of the totality and look to them to meet your imagined | needs, you are attempting to use separation to save you. How, then, |
| Tx:15.49 | the love from His. Do not, then, be afraid to let go your imagined | needs, which would destroy the relationship. Your only need is His. |
| Tx:15.52 | them here. In the holy instant no one is special, for your personal | needs intrude on no one to make them different. Without the values |
| Tx:15.54 | Every brother God loves as He loves you—neither less nor more. He | needs them all equally, and so do you. In time you have been told to |
| Tx:15.55 | except to extend it. In the holy instant, there is no conflict of | needs, for there is only one. For the holy instant reaches to |
| Tx:15.58 | gains in strength. If you seek for satisfaction in gratifying your | needs as you perceive them, you must believe that strength comes from |
| Tx:16.7 | an element of specialness. Only the Holy Spirit recognizes foolish | needs as well as real ones. And He will teach you how to meet both |
| Tx:16.8 | to do this only in secrecy. And you will think that, by meeting the | needs of one, you do not jeopardize another because you keep them |
| Tx:16.8 | other. That is not the way, for it leads not to light and truth. No | needs will long be left unmet if you leave them all to Him Whose |
| Tx:16.69 | enter with Him into a holy instant and there let Him release you. He | needs only your willingness to share His perspective to give it to |
| Tx:16.81 | can ever enter. Our holiness is Yours. What can there be in us that | needs forgiveness when Yours is perfect? The sleep of forgetfulness |
| Tx:17.36 | instant is so important in the defense of truth. The truth itself | needs no defense, but you do need defense against your own acceptance |
| Tx:17.52 | Join in His blessing, and withhold not yours upon it. For all it | needs now is your blessing that you may see that in it rests |
| Tx:17.79 | change, for you accepted what can never change. And nothing that it | needs to be forever changeless can you now withhold from it. Your |
| Tx:18.84 | thought that seems split off and separate, which the Holy Spirit | needs. The rest is fully in God's keeping and needs no guide. Yet |
| Tx:18.84 | which the Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in God's keeping and | needs no guide. Yet this wild and delusional thought needs help |
| Tx:18.84 | keeping and needs no guide. Yet this wild and delusional thought | needs help because in its delusions it thinks it is the Son of God, |

| Tx:19.3 | The body cannot heal because it cannot make itself sick. It | needs no healing. Its health or sickness depends entirely on how the |
| Tx:19.86 | cherished by the Holy Spirit, and protected by God Himself. It | needs not your protection; it is yours. For it is deathless, and |
| Tx:20.19 | A simple question yet remains and | needs an answer. Do you like what you have made—a world of murder |
| Tx:21.50 | Reality | needs no cooperation from you to be itself. But your awareness of it |
| Tx:21.50 | needs no cooperation from you to be itself. But your awareness of it | needs your help because it is your choice. Listen to what the ego |
| Tx:21.56 | and belief can be misplaced and serve the great deceiver's | needs as well as truth. But reason has no place at all in madness, |
| Tx:22.9 | reaches you directly without a need to be interpreted to you. What | needs interpretation must be alien. Nor will it ever be made |
| Tx:22.40 | will light your faces and shine from them into a darkened world that | needs the light. And from this holy place He will return with you, |
| Tx:22.43 | of hope and freedom and release from suffering to everyone who | needs a miracle to save him. |
| Tx:22.45 | from them and not reality. Reality opposes nothing. What merely is | needs no defense and offers none. Only illusions need defense because |

| Tx:22.45 | Everything that needs defense you do not want, for anything that | needs defense will weaken you. |
| Tx:22.46 | And what would you be saved from but what you fear? Belief in sin | needs great defense and at enormous cost. All that the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:23.30 | But what is it you want that | needs his death? Can you be sure your murderous attack is justified |
| Tx:24.56 | from him that both may end a journey that has never been begun and | needs no end. What never was is not a part of you. Yet you will think |
| Tx:24.62 | obeys. Nothing his specialness demands does he withhold. Nothing it | needs does he deny to what he loves. And while it calls to him, he |
| Tx:25.3 | The body | needs no healing. But the mind that thinks it is a body is sick |
| Tx:25.16 | a while without obscuring it in any way. Yet what God has created | needs no frame, for what He has created He supports and frames within |
| Tx:25.49 | The Holy Spirit | needs your special function that His may be fulfilled. Think not you |
| Tx:25.56 | to you. The content is the same. The form is suited to your special | needs and to the special time and place in which you think you find |
| Tx:25.63 | willingly, for if you could, you'd have no need of Him. But this He | needs—that you prefer He take it than that you keep it for yourself |
| Tx:25.64 | Here is the only principle salvation | needs. Nor is it necessary that your faith in it be strong, |
| Tx:26.22 | Salvation stops just short of Heaven, for only perception | needs salvation. Heaven was never lost and so cannot be saved. Yet |
| Tx:26.53 | Nothing gives meaning where no meaning is. And truth | needs no defense to make it true. Illusions have no witnesses and no |
| Tx:26.71 | be that if you fear, there is a present cause. And it is this that | needs correction, not a future state. |
| Tx:27.8 | sick have reason for each one of their unnatural desires and strange | needs. For who could live a life so soon cut short and not esteem the |
| Tx:27.49 | your healing everything the world requires that it may be healed. It | needs one lesson which has perfectly been learned. And then when you |
| Tx:28.3 | effort to do anything at all. It is a recognition that you have no | needs which mean that something must be done. It is an unselective |
| Tx:29.13 | you now that you will look on them and take them for your own. He | needs your help in giving them to all who walk apart believing they |
| Tx:29.28 | those in which the functions you have given have been filled, the | needs which you ascribe to you are met. It does not matter if they be |
| Tx:29.65 | they can turn against him for his treachery to them. He thinks he | needs them that he may escape his thoughts, because he thinks the |
| Tx:30.32 | It | needs but two who would have happiness this day to promise it to all |
| Tx:30.32 | who would have happiness this day to promise it to all the world. It | needs but two to understand that they cannot decide alone to |
| Tx:30.32 | powerful and gives it all effects that it will ever have. It | needs but two. These two are joined before there can be a decision. |
| Tx:30.53 | are not there. Yet this is equally forgotten in attack. God's Son | needs no defense against his dreams. His idols do not threaten him at |
| Tx:31.24 | his purpose is the same as yours. He asks for what you want and | needs the same as you. It takes perhaps a different form in him, but |

| W1:27.6 | The idea for today | needs many repetitions for maximum benefit. It should be used at |
| W1:39.2 | simple the text is, and you would not need a workbook at all. No one | needs practice to gain what is already his. |
| W1:65.4 | This is part of the long range disciplinary training which your mind | needs, so that the Holy Spirit can use it consistently for the |
| W1:71.12 | charge of the rest of the practice period, and let Him tell you what | needs to be done by you in His plan for your salvation. He will |
| W1:76.6 | There are no laws except the laws of God. This | needs repeating over and over until you realize that it applies to |

| W1:97.5 | Give Him the minutes which He | needs today to help you understand with Him you are the Spirit that |
| W1:99.1 | you need to be saved from or forgiven for, something amiss that | needs corrective change, something apart or different from the Will |
| W1:106.5 | those who sleep and cannot see. God calls to them through you. He | needs your voice to speak to them, for who could reach God's Son |

| W1:R3.5 | to think about them while letting your mind relate them to your | needs, your seeming problems, and all your concerns. |
| W1:133.9 | It does not even tell the truth as it perceives it, for it | needs to keep the halo which it uses to protect its goals from |
| W1:135.6 | it is not the body that can fear, nor be a thing to fear. It has no | needs but those which you assign to it. It needs no complicated |
| W1:135.6 | thing to fear. It has no needs but those which you assign to it. It | needs no complicated structures of defense, no health-inducing |
| W1:135.8 | mad attacks you make upon it. For it seems to fail your hopes, your | needs, your values, and your dreams. |
| W1:135.9 | The “self” that | needs protection is not real. The body, valueless and hardly worth |
| W1:135.14 | of helping in a plan which far exceeds its own protection and which | needs its service for a little while. In this capacity is health |
| W1:135.17 | will happen. And it does not see that here and now is everything it | needs to guarantee a future quite unlike the past without a |
| W1:135.29 | would keep it holy. I will not defend myself, because the Son of God | needs no defense against the truth of his reality. |
| W1:136.21 | Yet this protection | needs to be preserved by careful watching. If you let your mind |
| W1:138.5 | on what you have accepted as the truth of what you are and what your | needs must be. |
| W1:151.1 | certainty is but a cloak for the uncertainty it would conceal. It | needs irrational defense because it is irrational. And its defense |
| W1:154.11 | Him what He would have that we may recognize His gifts to us. He | needs our voice that He may speak through us. He needs our hands to |
| W1:154.11 | His gifts to us. He needs our voice that He may speak through us. He | needs our hands to hold His messages and carry them to those whom He |
| W1:154.11 | to hold His messages and carry them to those whom He appoints. He | needs our feet to bring us where He wills, that those who wait in |
| W1:154.11 | that those who wait in misery may be at last delivered. And He | needs our will united with His own, that we may be the true receivers |
| W1:158.6 | is merely there. This is beyond our goal, for it transcends what | needs to be accomplished. Our concern is with Christ's vision. This |
| W1:161.5 | for no response, for symbols can stand for the meaningless. Love | needs no symbols, being true. But fear attaches to specifics, being |
| W1:165.6 | His Son remain forever starved by his denial of the nourishment he | needs to live? Abundance dwells in him, and deprivation cannot cut |
| W1:166.6 | really tragic when you see that he is following the way he chose and | needs but realize Who walks with him and open up his treasures to be |
| W1:170.4 | For love now has an “enemy,” an opposite; and fear, the alien, now | needs your defense against the threat of what you really are. |
| W1:182.6 | This Child | needs your protection. He is far from home. He is so little that He |
| W1:186.5 | not your value to it. If God's Voice assures you that salvation | needs your part and that the whole depends on you, be sure that it is |
| W1:198.14 | There is no condemnation in him. He is perfect in his holiness. He | needs no thoughts of mercy. Who could give him gifts when everything |
| W2:242.2 | what You would have received by us. You know all our desires and our | needs. And You will give us everything we want and that will help us |
| W2:251.1 | not recognize. But now I see that I need only truth. In that, all | needs are satisfied, all cravings end, all hopes are finally |
| W2:296.1 | The Holy Spirit | needs my voice today, that all the world may listen to Your Voice and |
| W2:297.1 | saved, would make it mine to be the way I live within a world that | needs salvation and that will be saved as I accept Atonement for |
| W2:WISC.5 | that this Second Coming will be soon, but do not rest with that. It | needs your eyes and ears and hands and feet. It needs your voice. And |
| W2:WISC.5 | rest with that. It needs your eyes and ears and hands and feet. It | needs your voice. And most of all it needs your willingness. Let us |
| W2:WISC.5 | and ears and hands and feet. It needs your voice. And most of all it | needs your willingness. Let us rejoice that we can do God's Will and |
| W2:338.1 | It | needs but this to let salvation come to all the world. For in this |
| W2:345.1 | perceive. Father, in Heaven it is different, for there, there are no | needs. But here on earth, the miracle is closer to Your gifts than |
| W2:349.2 | Our Father knows our | needs. He gives us grace to meet them all. And so we trust in Him to |
| M:2.5 | have drawn between their roles, their minds, their bodies, their | needs, their interests, and all the differences they thought |
| M:3.5 | even seem to fail. No teacher of God can fail to find the Help he | needs. |
| M:4.8 | How simple is the obvious! And how easy to do! The teacher of God | needs this period of respite. He has not yet come as far as he |
| M:7.1 | limit the healing. It is now the teacher of God himself whose mind | needs to be healed. And it is this he must facilitate. He is now the |
| M:8.2 | minds, with different interests of its own and able to gratify its | needs at the expense of others. |
| M:16.1 | learn the lessons for the day together. Not one is absent whom he | needs; not one is sent without a learning goal already set, and one |
| M:16.10 | him. But he is safe from all deception if he so decides. Perhaps he | needs to remember “God is with me. I cannot be deceived.” Perhaps he |
| M:22.3 | That forgiveness is healing | needs to be understood if the teacher of God is to make progress. The |
| M:25.4 | tempting. Here are strengths which the Holy Spirit wants and | needs. Yet the ego sees in these same strengths an opportunity to |
| M:25.6 | their increased freedom for greater imprisonment. The Holy Spirit | needs these gifts, and those who offer them to Him and Him alone go |
| M:26.2 | on them in vain. Nor is there anyone of whom they are unaware. All | needs are known to them, and all mistakes are recognized and |
| M:26.4 | their language. If you would be saviors, you must understand what | needs to be escaped. Salvation is not theoretical. Behold the |
| M:29.2 | Which is for whom? Who would profit more from prayers alone? Who | needs but a smile, being as yet unready for more? No one should |

| Tx:1.97 | of denial can be appreciated and relinquished. It is not mere | negation. It is a positive miscreation. While the miscreation is |
negative (12) | ||
| Tx:2.22 | You will note that we have been shifting the emphasis from the | negative to the positive use of denial. As we have already stated, |
| Tx:2.22 | use of denial. As we have already stated, denial is not a purely | negative device; it results in positive miscreation. That is the way |
| Tx:4.56 | are obviously conflicted, your feelings have a narrow range on the | negative side but are never purely joyous, and your behavior is |
| Tx:6.4 | a form of punishment. Nothing, however, can be really explained in | negative terms only. There is a positive interpretation of the |
| Tx:7.19 | it is not there. Actually, this does not mean anything. It is like | negative numbers in that the concept can be used theoretically, but |
| Tx:7.71 | That is the | negative side of the law as it operates in this world. Yet denial is |
| Tx:11.44 | you. Yet the recognition of your invulnerability has more than | negative value. If your attacks on yourself have failed to weaken |
| W1:12.5 | happen to occur to you. If terms which seem positive rather than | negative occur to you, include them. For example, you might think of |
| W1:35.4 | the ego-based attributes which you ascribe to yourself, positive or | negative, desirable or undesirable, grandiose or debased. All of them |
| W1:35.5 | period, you will probably emphasize what you consider to be the more | negative aspects of your perception of yourself. Toward the latter |
| W1:46.13 | at any time during the day when you become aware of any kind of | negative reaction to anyone, present or not. In this event, tell him |

| Tx:3.12 | anti-religious concept enters into many religions, and this is | neither by chance nor by coincidence. Yet the real Christian would |

| Tx:5.90 | you can plan for your safety and joy better than He can? You need be | neither careful nor careless; you need merely cast your cares upon |
| Tx:6.32 | within themselves and with each other, because they were created | neither partially nor in part. The Holy Spirit enables you to |
| Tx:6.61 | through life, and life is of the mind and in the mind. The body | neither lives nor dies, because it cannot contain you who are life. |
| Tx:7.7 | because He created His co-creators. Because He did, time applies | neither to Him nor to what He created. The “last step” that God [was |

| Tx:7.32 | and therefore universal in application. The real aim of science is | neither prediction nor control but only understanding. This is |
| Tx:7.63 | allegiance between two kingdoms, and you are totally committed to | neither. |
| Tx:7.99 | accept into your mind what is not really there and deny what is. | Neither of these possibilities requires further elaboration here, but |

| Tx:18.74 | Yet | neither sun nor ocean is even aware of all this strange and |
| Tx:18.77 | sunlight, and the ripple dances as it rests upon the ocean. Yet in | neither sun nor ocean is the power that rests in you. Would you |

| Tx:19.82 | no more dies than it can feel. It does nothing. Of itself, it is | neither corruptible nor incorruptible. It is nothing. It is the |

| Tx:3.70 | of very devious routes from the denial of Authorship. The offense is | never to God, but only to those who deny Him. To deny His Authorship |
| Tx:3.78 | in opposition to God because it literally denies His Fatherhood. | Never underestimate the power of this denial. Look at your lives and |
| Tx:4.8 | the ego cannot know. They are therefore not in communication and can | never be in communication. Nevertheless, the ego can learn because |
| Tx:4.9 | lesson was like yours, and because I learned it, I can teach it. I | never attack your egos, but I do try to teach you how their thought |

| Tx:4.14 | ego is never at stake because God did not create it. Your Soul is | never at stake because He did. Any confusion on this point is a |
| Tx:4.20 | I will substitute for your ego if you wish but | never for your Soul. A father can safely leave a child with an elder |
| Tx:4.26 | have knowledge at times, but when you throw it away, it is as if you | never had it. This willfulness is so apparent that one need only |

| Tx:4.50 | which is so different from anything the ego can offer that you will | never recover. The word “recover” is used quite literally here—you |
| Tx:4.50 | recover. The word “recover” is used quite literally here—you will | never be able to cover or hide again. It is necessary to repeat here |
| Tx:4.51 | In this you are as free as God and must remain so forever. You can | never be bound except in honor, and that is always voluntary. Let us |

| Tx:4.56 | your feelings have a narrow range on the negative side but are | never purely joyous, and your behavior is either strained or |
| Tx:4.66 | which is used only for protection, cannot be wrong because it | never attacks. Yours is so distorted that you believe I was mistaken |
| Tx:4.77 | that in all these diversionary tactics, the one question which is | never asked by those who pursue them is, “What for?” |
| Tx:4.82 | nor is it understood by being compared to an opposite. Knowledge | never involves comparisons. That is its essential difference from |
| Tx:4.85 | you have made, your great debt to each other is something you must | never forget. It is exactly the same debt that you owe to me. |
| Tx:4.87 | than conditioning by pain because pain is an ego-illusion and can | never induce more than a temporary effect. The rewards of God, |
| Tx:4.89 | trust and always approves my Atonement decisions because my will is | never out of accord with His. I have told you before that I am in |
| Tx:5.11 | it cannot oppose. Therefore, you can obstruct it, although you can | never lose it. The Holy Spirit is the Christ Mind, which senses the |
| Tx:5.47 | without strength. Its unshared existence does not die; it was merely | never born. Real birth is not a beginning; it is a continuing. |
| Tx:5.48 | without sharing and for asking pardon without change. The ego | never calls for real Atonement and cannot tolerate forgiveness, which |
| Tx:5.55 | join it and give it away. As you teach, so shall you learn. I will | never leave you or forsake you, because to forsake you would be to |
| Tx:5.62 | However ridiculous the idea of attacking God may be to the sane mind, | never forget that the ego is not sane. It represents a delusional |
| Tx:5.85 | Spirit's set is the basis for His unequivocal Voice. The Holy Spirit | never changes His Mind. Clarity of thought cannot occur under |
| Tx:5.88 | his thought system, the “threat” of fixation remained and could | never be eliminated by any living human being. Essentially, this was |
| Tx:5.89 | creation, and the pull of this fixation is so strong that you will | never overcome it. The reason is perfectly clear. The fixation is on |
| Tx:6.11 | because I had learned I could not be abandoned. Peter swore he would | never deny me, but he did so three times. He did offer to defend me |
| Tx:6.14 | When you hear only one voice, you are | never called on to sacrifice. On the contrary, by enabling yourselves |
| Tx:6.20 | thinking myself. If the Apostles had not felt guilty, they | never could have quoted me as saying, “I come not to bring peace but |
| Tx:6.34 | God. He tells you to return your whole mind to God, because it has | never left Him. If it has never left Him, you need only perceive it |
| Tx:6.34 | your whole mind to God, because it has never left Him. If it has | never left Him, you need only perceive it as it is to be returned. |
| Tx:6.34 | of the Atonement, then, is the recognition that the separation | never occurred. The ego cannot prevail against this because it is an |
| Tx:6.34 | against this because it is an explicit statement that the ego | never occurred. |
| Tx:6.35 | Holy Spirit tells you that even return is unnecessary because what | never happened cannot involve any problem. It does not follow, |
| Tx:6.40 | no barrier at all to the communication of God. Thus, being is | never threatened. Your Godlike mind can never be defiled. The ego |
| Tx:6.40 | of God. Thus, being is never threatened. Your Godlike mind can | never be defiled. The ego never was and never will be part of it, but |
| Tx:6.40 | is never threatened. Your Godlike mind can never be defiled. The ego | never was and never will be part of it, but through the ego you can |
| Tx:6.40 | Your Godlike mind can never be defiled. The ego never was and | never will be part of it, but through the ego you can hear and teach |
| Tx:6.41 | so will you learn.” If that is true, and it is true indeed, you must | never forget that what you teach is teaching you. What you project |
| Tx:6.46 | raised the first question that was ever asked, but one which it can | never answer. That question, “What are you?” was the beginning of |
| Tx:6.47 | The ego has | never answered any questions since, although it has raised a great |
| Tx:6.47 | raised a great many. The most inventive activities of the ego have | never done more than obscure the question, because you have the |
| Tx:6.51 | certain. There is no doubt there because the first question was | never asked. Having finally been wholly answered, it has never been. |
| Tx:6.51 | was never asked. Having finally been wholly answered, it has | never been. Being alone lives in the Kingdom, where everything lives |
| Tx:6.53 | it. You have a model to follow who will strengthen your command and | never detract from it in any way. You therefore retain the central |
| Tx:6.55 | That is why the Holy Spirit | never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which the Holy |
| Tx:6.60 | The Holy Spirit | never itemizes errors because He does not frighten children, and |
| Tx:6.66 | The Holy Spirit communicates only what each one can give to all. He | never takes anything back, because He wants you to keep it. |
| Tx:6.83 | vary, and that is why it promotes different moods. The Holy Spirit | never varies on this point, and so the one mood He engenders is joy. |
| Tx:7.8 | it or Who He is. God does not reveal this to you, because it was | never hidden. His light was never obscured, because it is His Will to |
| Tx:7.8 | not reveal this to you, because it was never hidden. His light was | never obscured, because it is His Will to share it. How can what is |
| Tx:7.15 | translator, although he must alter the form of what he translates, | never changes the meaning. In fact, his whole purpose is to change |
| Tx:7.30 | reality is to question meaninglessly. That is why the Holy Spirit | never questions. His sole function is to undo the questionable and |
| Tx:7.36 | as the Holy Spirit's, and it is because of this that their goals can | never be reconciled in any way or to any extent. The ego always seeks |
| Tx:7.45 | not gladden. Healing does. Fear always makes exceptions. Healing | never does. Fear produces dissociation, because it induces |
| Tx:7.48 | the Holy Spirit in him. It is only the Holy Spirit in him that | never changes His Mind. He himself must think he can, or he would not |
| Tx:7.49 | better, an idol which you may worship out of fear but which you will | never love. The other shows you only truth, which you will love, |
| Tx:7.54 | it that you will not attribute to all of it. That is why attack is | never discrete and why attack must be relinquished entirely. If it is |
| Tx:7.56 | and this must be a source of extreme anxiety. That is why the ego | never knows what it is doing. It is perfectly logical but clearly |
| Tx:7.61 | peace. It is necessary against beliefs which are not true and would | never have been called upon by the Holy Spirit if you had not |
| Tx:7.71 | all of it. Mind is too powerful to be subject to exclusion. You will | never be able to exclude yourself from what you project. |
| Tx:7.78 | Attack could | never promote attack unless you perceived it as a means of depriving |
| Tx:7.87 | belief. The ego is therefore a confusion in identification which | never had a consistent model and never developed consistently. It is |
| Tx:7.87 | a confusion in identification which never had a consistent model and | never developed consistently. It is the distorted product of the |
| Tx:7.97 | Be confident that you have | never lost your identity and the extensions which maintain it in |
| Tx:7.103 | decision mean except that you want to be fearful? The Holy Spirit | never asks for sacrifice, but the ego always does. When you are |
| Tx:8.9 | to whom a Son of God should turn to find himself? The ego has | never given you a sensible answer to anything. Simply on the grounds |
| Tx:8.10 | will is free. That is why the ego is the denial of free will. It is | never God who coerces you because He shares His Will with you. His |
| Tx:8.19 | treat yourself. As you think of him, you will think of yourself. | Never forget this, for in him you will find yourself or lose sight of |
| Tx:8.21 | imprisoned or released according to your decision, and so will you. | Never forget your responsibility to him, because it is your |
| Tx:8.41 | can obscure the one for which God's Voice speaks in all of us. | Never accord the ego the power to interfere with the journey because |
| Tx:8.41 | for my hand, because you want to transcend the ego. My will will | never be wanting, and if you want to share it you will. I give it |
| Tx:8.48 | choose. This choice does make the Son's function unknown to him, but | never to his Creator. And because it is not unknown to his Creator, |
| Tx:8.51 | you are forever. It is a journey without distance to a goal that has | never changed. Truth can only be experienced. It cannot be described, |
| Tx:8.60 | why the world is depressing. The Holy Spirit's curriculum is | never depressing, because it is a curriculum of joy. Whenever the |
| Tx:8.70 | can separate and reassemble in different constellations. Knowledge | never changes, so its constellation is permanent. The only areas in |
| Tx:8.78 | without violating your will, which the Holy Spirit seeks to free but | never to command. |
| Tx:8.94 | have. We have emphasized many times that the Holy Spirit will | never call upon you to sacrifice anything. But if you ask the |
| Tx:8.96 | teacher who could not possibly teach you your will. Of him you can | never learn it, and this gives you the illusion of safety. Yet you |
| Tx:8.98 | do not want, you are asking for what cannot be given, because it was | never created. It was never created, because it was never your will |
| Tx:8.98 | for what cannot be given, because it was never created. It was | never created, because it was never your will for you. |
| Tx:8.98 | because it was never created. It was never created, because it was | never your will for you. |

| Tx:8.103 | want. How real can this devotion be? If you do not want it, it was | never created. If it was never created, it is nothing. Can you really |
| Tx:8.103 | devotion be? If you do not want it, it was never created. If it was | never created, it is nothing. Can you really devote yourself to |

| Tx:9.40 | range. It cannot exceed it because of its uncertainty. And it can | never go beyond it, because it can never be certain. |
| Tx:9.40 | of its uncertainty. And it can never go beyond it, because it can | never be certain. |
| Tx:9.41 | of you really is. He is not deceived by anything you do, because He | never forgets what you are. The ego is deceived by everything you do, |
| Tx:9.54 | Yet it must be insane because it is not true. Your grandeur will | never deceive you, but your illusions always will. Illusions are |
| Tx:9.63 | changeless, and refuse to change your mind about yourself. God will | never decide against you, or He would be deciding against Himself. |
| Tx:9.77 | minds which are too divided to know that creation shares power and | never usurps it. Sickness is idolatry, because it is the belief that |
| Tx:9.89 | are endowing them with chaos and accepting it of them. All this has | never been. Nothing but the laws of God has ever operated, and |
| Tx:9.92 | are obscured. Yet God has kept the spark alive so that the rays can | never be completely forgotten. If you but see the little spark, you |
| Tx:9.93 | of the god of sickness are strange and very demanding. Joy is | never permitted, for depression is the sign of allegiance to him. |
| Tx:9.96 | If you were, what you have made would be true, and you could | never escape. |
| Tx:9.100 | of Him. When you acknowledge Him, you will know that He has | never ceased to acknowledge you and that in His acknowledgment of you |
| Tx:9.102 | you were insane. Would you have Him share your insanity? God will | never cease to love His Son, and His Son will never cease to love |
| Tx:9.102 | insanity? God will never cease to love His Son, and His Son will | never cease to love Him. That was the condition of His Son's |
| Tx:10.2 | It sounds insane when it is stated with perfect honesty, but the ego | never looks upon what it does with perfect honesty. Yet that is its |
| Tx:10.15 | Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is the Voice for God, but | never forget that God did not will to be alone. He shares His Will |
| Tx:10.21 | You will | never rest until you know your function and fulfill it, for only in |
| Tx:10.23 | you, but you cannot. You do not know how, for if you did you could | never have grown weary. Unless you have hurt yourselves, you could |
| Tx:10.23 | never have grown weary. Unless you have hurt yourselves, you could | never suffer in any way, for that is not God's Will for His Son. Pain |
| Tx:10.27 | to be glorious and gave him the light that shines in him. You will | never lose your way, for God leads you. When you wander, you but |
| Tx:10.28 | is not in them. Do not be deceived by the dark comforters, and | never let them enter the Mind of God's Son, for they have no place in |
| Tx:10.31 | Never forget that the Sonship is your salvation, for the Sonship is | |
| Tx:10.32 | has denied him? God's laws hold only for your protection, and they | never hold in vain. What you experience when you deny your Father is |
| Tx:10.53 | characteristically contradictory approach of the ego to everything. | Never forget that the ego believes that power, understanding, and |
| Tx:10.71 | The ego sees some good but | never only good. That is why its perceptions are so variable. It does |
| Tx:11.2 | analysis of ego-motivation is very complicated, very obscuring, and | never without the risk of your own ego-involvement. The whole process |
| Tx:11.26 | poverty as yours. If you had not invested as they had, it would | never occur to you to overlook their need. |
| Tx:11.27 | He is asking for salvation, as you are. Poverty is of the ego and | never of God. No “outrageous” request can be made of one who |
| Tx:11.28 | the “what” and the “how” of salvation, and this is the only answer. | Never lose sight of this, and never allow yourself to believe even |
| Tx:11.28 | and this is the only answer. Never lose sight of this, and | never allow yourself to believe even for an instant that there is |
| Tx:11.36 | that love is dangerous, and this is always its central teaching. It | never puts it this way; on the contrary, everyone who believes that |
| Tx:11.39 | and the goal He sets before you He will give you. For He will | never deceive God's Son, whom He loves with the love of the Father. |
| Tx:11.45 | You will | never realize the utter uselessness of attack except by recognizing |
| Tx:11.45 | For you are always the first point of your attack, and if this has | never been, it has no consequences. |
| Tx:11.54 | you always, He cannot let you forget your worth. For the Father | never ceases to remind Him of His Son, and He never ceases to remind |
| Tx:11.54 | worth. For the Father never ceases to remind Him of His Son, and He | never ceases to remind His Son of the Father. God is in your memory |
| Tx:11.58 | And then the real world will spring to your sight, for Christ has | never slept. He is waiting to be seen, for He has never lost sight of |
| Tx:11.58 | for Christ has never slept. He is waiting to be seen, for He has | never lost sight of you. He looks quietly on the real world, which He |
| Tx:11.74 | of death as God knows you are deserving of life. The death penalty | never leaves the ego's mind, for that is what it always reserves for |
| Tx:11.76 | also given it to you? When you learn to make me manifest, you will | never see death. For you will have looked upon the deathless in |
| Tx:11.77 | you cannot see it. If you seek love in order to attack it, you will | never find it. For if love is sharing, how can you find it except |
| Tx:11.80 | Because of your Father's love you can | never forget Him, for no one can forget what God Himself placed in |
| Tx:11.82 | Everything you made has | never been and is invisible because the Holy Spirit does not see it. |
| Tx:11.83 | could you find? The unreal world is a thing of despair, for it can | never be. And you who share God's Being with Him could never be |
| Tx:11.83 | for it can never be. And you who share God's Being with Him could | never be content without reality. What God did not give you has no |
| Tx:11.84 | for only perception is capable of error, and perception has | never been. Being corrected, it gives place to knowledge, which is |
| Tx:11.84 | the only reality. The Atonement is but the way back to what was | never lost. Your Father could not cease to love His Son. |
| Tx:11.88 | he has given only love. He cannot be condemned because he has | never condemned. The Atonement is the final lesson he need learn, for |
| Tx:11.88 | is the final lesson he need learn, for it teaches him that, | never having sinned, he has no need of salvation. |
| Tx:11.90 | it dear. For the blamelessness of Christ is the proof that the ego | never was and can never be. Without guilt the ego has no life, and |
| Tx:11.90 | blamelessness of Christ is the proof that the ego never was and can | never be. Without guilt the ego has no life, and God's Son is without |
| Tx:11.92 | cannot hurt himself. The retaliation he fears and which he sees will | never touch him, for although he believes in it, the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:11.97 | is, for by accepting your guiltlessness, you learn that the past has | never been, and so the future is needless. The future, in time, is |
| Tx:11.97 | way of reminding you of His Son and what he is in truth. For God has | never condemned His Son, and being guiltless, he is eternal. |
| Tx:11.99 | Spirit dispels it simply through the calm recognition that it has | never been. As He looks upon the guiltless Son of God, he knows this |
| Tx:12.9 | immortal. And you will see that you were redeemed with him and have | never been separated from him. In this understanding lies your |
| Tx:12.34 | that private worlds do differ. Yet the figures that he sees were | never real, for they are made up only of his reactions to his |
| Tx:12.39 | you have offered yourself is not true, but His offering to you has | never changed. You who know not what you do can learn what insanity |
| Tx:12.53 | will return your thanks in His clear answer to your call. For it can | never be that His Son called upon Him and remained unanswered. His |
| Tx:12.57 | Continuous with his Father, he has no past apart from Him. So he has | never ceased to be his Father's witness and his own. Although he |
| Tx:12.57 | that he can call unto himself the witnesses that teach him that he | never slept. |
| Tx:12.61 | it has disappointed you since time began. The homes you built have | never sheltered you. The roads you made have led you nowhere, and no |
| Tx:12.65 | love surrounds him without end or flaw. Disturbance of his peace can | never be. In perfect sanity he looks on love, for it is all about him |
| Tx:12.71 | them. What comes to you of Him comes safely, for He will ensure it | never can become a dark spot, hidden in your mind and kept to hurt |
| Tx:13.2 | be yours, for in you is all knowledge. Perception at its loftiest is | never complete. Even the perception of the Holy Spirit, as perfect as |
| Tx:13.10 | know, and as they reach the gates of Heaven, God will open them. For | never would He leave His own beloved Son outside them and beyond |
| Tx:13.25 | within, where you would always find Atonement. The end of guilt will | never come as long as you believe there is a reason for it. For you |
| Tx:13.34 | the Kingdom, guilt melts away and, transformed into kindness, will | never more be what it was. Every reaction that you experience will be |
| Tx:13.34 | Father. See only praise of Him in what He has created, for He will | never cease His praise of you. United in this praise, we stand before |
| Tx:13.46 | for you and by you in return. For how can you remember what was | never true or not remember what has always been? It is this |
| Tx:13.53 | therefore, must begin His teaching by showing you what you can | never learn. His message is not indirect, but He must introduce the |
| Tx:13.54 | so confused you that you have undertaken to learn to do what you can | never do, believing that unless you learn it, you will not be happy. |
| Tx:13.60 | seemed hardest was the easiest. Learn to be happy learners. You will | never learn how to make nothing everything. Yet see that this has |
| Tx:13.64 | about learning. This is so essential to learning that it should | never be forgotten. The guiltless learner learns so easily because |
| Tx:13.75 | It will | never happen that you will have to make decisions for yourself. You |
| Tx:13.75 | He Who gives you everything will simply offer it to you? He will | never ask what you have done to make you worthy of the gift of God. |
| Tx:13.79 | out of insanity. Madness may be your choice, but not your reality. | Never forget the love of God, Who has remembered you. For it is quite |
| Tx:13.84 | He leadeth me and knows the way, which I know not. Yet He will | never keep from me what He would have me learn. And so I trust Him to |
| Tx:14.4 | exist, for what is not in communication with the Mind of God has | never been. Communication with God is life. Nothing without it is at |
| Tx:14.8 | Bring innocence to light in answer to the call of the Atonement. | Never allow purity to remain hidden, but shine away the heavy veils |
| Tx:14.37 | joins Himself to those He gives the power to create like Him can | never be dissolved. Heaven itself is union with all of creation and |
| Tx:14.38 | between what always was and now. The past which you remember | never was and represents only the denial of what always was. |
| Tx:14.49 | but seems to think. The result is a weaving, changing pattern which | never rests and is never still. It shifts unceasingly across the |
| Tx:14.49 | The result is a weaving, changing pattern which never rests and is | never still. It shifts unceasingly across the mirror of your mind, |
| Tx:14.62 | exchange each one for the bright lesson He has learned for you. | Never believe that any lesson you have learned apart from Him means |
| Tx:14.69 | to light, having accepted them instead of you and recognized they | never were. There are no dark lessons He has not already lightened |
| Tx:14.71 | have always created like your Father. The miracle of creation has | never ceased, having the holy stamp of immortality upon it. This is |
| Tx:14.72 | test of perfect peace, for peace and understanding go together and | never can be found alone. Each brings the other with it, for it is |
| Tx:14.74 | you must abandon the teacher of attack. The Teacher of peace will | never abandon you. You can desert Him, but He will never reciprocate, |
| Tx:14.74 | of peace will never abandon you. You can desert Him, but He will | never reciprocate, for His faith in you is His understanding. It is |
| Tx:15.4 | seen this strange paradox in the ego's thought system before, but | never so clearly as here. For the ego must seem to keep fear from you |
| Tx:15.13 | You will | never give this holy instant to the Holy Spirit on behalf of your |
| Tx:15.15 | what time is for. Holiness lies not in time but in eternity. There | never was an instant in which God's Son could lose his purity. His |
| Tx:15.21 | of the power of God in you. Use it but for one instant, and you will | never deny it again. Who can deny the Presence of what the universe |
| Tx:15.22 | but be sure you understand what littleness is and why you could | never be content with it. Littleness is the offering you gave |
| Tx:15.50 | both. Yet you had judged against yourself first, or you would | never have imagined that you needed them as they were not. Unless you |
| Tx:15.73 | wounding them, perhaps in little ways, perhaps “unconsciously,” yet | never without demand of sacrifice. The fury of those joined at the |
| Tx:15.80 | seek in them what you have thrown away. And through them you will | never learn the value of what you have cast aside but what you still |
| Tx:15.81 | Relate only with what will | never leave you and what you can never leave. The loneliness of God's |
| Tx:15.81 | Relate only with what will never leave you and what you can | never leave. The loneliness of God's Son is the loneliness of his |
| Tx:15.87 | by which it tries to turn its purpose into accomplishment. This will | never be accomplished. Yet you have surely recognized that the ego, |
| Tx:15.97 | be yours. While it is obvious that the ego does demand payment, it | never seems to be demanding it of you. For you are unwilling to |
| Tx:15.97 | treacherous only to those who think they are its host. The ego will | never let you perceive this, since this recognition would make it |
| Tx:16.2 | and in certain people. These it selects out and joins with. And it | never joins except to strengthen itself. [Having identified with what |
| Tx:16.5 | know. You are not sure that He will do His part because you have | never yet done yours completely. You will not know how to respond to |
| Tx:16.6 | He the Teacher. Do not confuse your role with His, for this will | never bring peace to anyone. Offer your empathy to Him, for it is His |
| Tx:16.16 | acknowledge Him is to deny all that you think you know. But it was | never true. What gain is there to you in clinging to it and denying |
| Tx:16.16 | little while. The Host of God has called to you, and you have heard. | Never again will you be wholly willing not to listen. |
| Tx:16.19 | and will give you everything that makes for happiness. You have | never given any problem to the Holy Spirit He has not solved for you, |
| Tx:16.19 | Spirit He has not solved for you, nor will you ever do so. You have | never tried to solve anything yourself and been successful. Is it not |
| Tx:16.23 | is equally impossible that conviction be outside of you. You could | never have taught freedom unless you did believe in it. And it must |
| Tx:16.25 | real has ever left the mind of its creator. And what is not real was | never there. |
| Tx:16.31 | translated quietly from war to peace. For the illusion of love will | never satisfy, but its reality, which awaits you on the other side, |
| Tx:16.33 | not love but hate. For hate is an illusion, and what can change was | never love. It is certain that those who select certain ones as |
| Tx:16.35 | that you perceive hatred within and are afraid of it. Yet peace will | never come from the illusion of love, but only from its reality. |
| Tx:16.37 | the acceptance of the oneness of creation, without which you could | never be complete. No specialness can offer you what God has given |
| Tx:16.40 | wholly without fear. Whom God remembers must be whole. And God has | never forgotten what makes Him whole. In your completion lies the |
| Tx:16.46 | believe this specialness is not hell, but Heaven. For the ego would | never have you see that separation can only be loss, being the one |
| Tx:16.53 | his death. Over and over and over this ritual is enacted. And it is | never completed nor ever will be completed. For the ritual of |
| Tx:16.54 | expense of content. There is no meaning in the form, and there will | never be. The special relationship must be recognized for what it is |
| Tx:16.74 | of love is not profoundly shaken. Yet the one thing which the ego | never allows to reach awareness is that the special relationship is |
| Tx:17.8 | and beyond all ugliness into beauty that will enchant you and will | never cease to cause you wonderment at its perfection. |
| Tx:17.25 | or illusion, freedom or slavery—it is all the same. For you can | never choose except between God and the ego. Thought systems are but |
| Tx:17.30 | relationship with God restored to you. The relationship with Him has | never been broken because the Holy Spirit has not been separate from |
| Tx:17.43 | is a practical device, witnessed to by its results. The holy instant | never fails. The experience of it is always felt. Yet without |
| Tx:17.45 | the unholy relationship has accepted the goal of holiness, it can | never again be what it was. |
| Tx:17.51 | you have chosen but the goal of God from which your true intent was | never absent. |
| Tx:17.66 | that. The error does not matter. Faithlessness brought to faith will | never interfere with truth. But faithlessness used against truth will |
| Tx:17.71 | you were. Yet you are as innocent of what you were as he is. What | never was is causeless and is not there to interfere with truth. |
| Tx:17.77 | else, believing that the “something else” produced it. This was | never true. For what the “something else” produced was sorrow and |
| Tx:17.79 | has not changed and will not change, for you accepted what can | never change. And nothing that it needs to be forever changeless can |
| Tx:18.2 | The Holy Spirit | never uses substitutes. Where the ego perceives one person as a |
| Tx:18.8 | calm within, where in holy stillness dwells the living God you | never left and Who never left you. The Holy Spirit takes you gently |
| Tx:18.8 | where in holy stillness dwells the living God you never left and Who | never left you. The Holy Spirit takes you gently by the hand and |
| Tx:18.10 | are so firmly joined in truth that only God is there. And He would | never accept something else instead of you. He loves you both, |
| Tx:18.23 | with the Will of God. And what this will would have accomplished has | never not been done. |
| Tx:18.34 | Humility will | never ask that you remain content with littleness. But it does |
| Tx:18.40 | but has already happened. And that is why the past has gone. It | never happened in reality. Only in your minds, which thought it did, |
| Tx:18.41 | Prepare you not for the undoing of what | never was. If you already understood the difference between truth and |
| Tx:18.42 | Never approach the holy instant after you have tried to remove all | |
| Tx:18.42 | to remove all fear and hatred from your mind. That is its function. | Never attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:18.46 | this instant for the holy one which you would rather have. He will | never fail in this. But forget not that your relationship is one, and |
| Tx:18.46 | of you to experience fear alone or to attempt to deal with it alone. | Never believe that this is necessary or even possible. Yet just as |
| Tx:18.51 | it can make fantasies and direct the body to act them out. Yet it is | never what the body does that seems to satisfy. Unless the mind |
| Tx:18.64 | really trying to make still more, but there is one thing you have | never done—not for one instant have you utterly forgotten the body. |
| Tx:18.64 | of Atonement happens. Afterwards, you will see the body again, but | never quite the same. And every instant that you spend without |
| Tx:18.65 | the body exist at all. It is always remembered or anticipated, but | never experienced just now. Only its past and future make it seem |
| Tx:18.65 | and future make it seem real. Time controls it entirely, for sin is | never present. In any single instant, the attraction of guilt would |
| Tx:18.88 | must always depend on keeping it not seen. The body's eyes will | never look on it. Yet they will see what it dictates. |
| Tx:18.96 | that is what needs to be undone. Love is not learned because there | never was a time in which you knew it not. Learning is useless in the |
| Tx:19.1 | be safely assumed. Yet we also said that peace without faith will | never be attained, for what is wholly dedicated to truth as its only |
| Tx:19.3 | acting accordingly; seeing what is not there, hearing what truth has | never said, and behaving insanely, being imprisoned by insanity. |
| Tx:19.8 | separation is and where it must be healed. The result of an idea is | never separate from its source. The idea of separation produced the |
| Tx:19.40 | its tranquil dwelling-place from which it gently reaches out but | never leaving you. If you would make it homeless, how can it abide |
| Tx:19.48 | See but how easily this little wisp is lifted up and carried away, | never to return, and part with it in gladness, not regret. For it is |
| Tx:19.49 | The attraction of guilt produces fear of love, for love would | never look on guilt at all. It is the nature of love to look upon |
| Tx:19.65 | of your forgiveness, he will remember who he is and forget what | never was. I ask for your forgiveness, for if you are guilty, so must |
| Tx:19.70 | that lies in it will come with it, and what you think you are can | never be apart from it. The body is the great seeming betrayer of |
| Tx:19.92 | is but the solemn vow, the promise made in secret to the ego | never to lift this veil, not to approach it nor even to suspect that |
| Tx:19.92 | the veil forever blotted out and unremembered. Here is your promise | never to allow union to call you out of separation; the great amnesia |
| Tx:19.93 | friends. For in your secret alliance with them, you have agreed | never to let the fear of God be lifted so you could look upon the |
| Tx:19.94 | body is given up in favor of the Spirit, which you love as you could | never love the body. And the appeal of death is lost forever as |
| Tx:19.95 | And now you stand in terror before what you swore | never to look upon. Your eyes look down, remembering your promise to |
| Tx:20.12 | in love. The song of Easter is the glad refrain the Son of God was | never crucified. Let us lift up our eyes together, not in fear, but |
| Tx:20.37 | and finding what was lost. Only in time can anything be lost, and | never lost forever. So do the parts of God's Son gradually join in |
| Tx:20.39 | cannot even see it? Judge not what is invisible to you or you will | never see it, but wait in patience for its coming. It will be given |
| Tx:20.40 | is of those who do not see. Vision or judgment is your choice, but | never both of these. |
| Tx:20.42 | You look upon each holy instant as a different point in time. It | never changes. All that it ever held or will ever hold is here right |
| Tx:20.47 | Idols accept, but | never make return. They can be loved, but cannot love. They do not |
| Tx:20.49 | enter. The Holy Spirit does not build His temples where love can | never be. Would He Who sees the face of Christ choose as His home the |
| Tx:20.50 | You cannot make the body the Holy Spirit's temple, and it will | never be the seat of love. It is the home of the idolater and of |
| Tx:20.63 | Here are illusions and reality kept separated. Here are illusions | never brought to truth and always hidden from it. And here in |
| Tx:20.67 | which you closed off by valuing the “something else,” and what was | never lost will quietly return. It has been saved for you. Vision |
| Tx:20.72 | will stand condemned before you. All that could save you, you will | never see. Your holy relationship, the source of your salvation, will |
| Tx:20.74 | purpose is no longer held, they disappear. Therefore, the question | never is whether you want them, but always, do you want the purpose |
| Tx:20.77 | life-giving water running happily beside them in dancing brooks that | never waste away, who need persuade you to accept the gift of vision? |
| Tx:20.77 | just on this—you can behold the holiness God gave His Son. And | never need you think that there is something else for you to see. |
| Tx:21.3 | Never forget the world the sightless “see” must be imagined, for what | |
| Tx:21.18 | now you see it. Give it away, and everything you see goes with it. | Never was so much given for so little. In the holy instant is this |
| Tx:21.28 | you are independent of the Source by which you were created and have | never left. |
| Tx:21.30 | the persistence that faith inevitably brings. The power of faith is | never recognized if it is placed in sin. But it is always recognized |
| Tx:21.41 | The Holy Spirit will | never teach you that you are sinful. Errors He will correct, but this |
| Tx:21.43 | looked within and saw no sin? This “fearful” question is one the ego | never asks. And you who ask it now are threatening the ego's whole |
| Tx:21.49 | belief in what you are. Perception is a witness but to this and | never to reality. Yet it can show you the conditions in which |
| Tx:21.49 | in which awareness of reality is possible or those where it could | never be. |
| Tx:21.50 | you made directs your destiny. For this will be your faith. But | never believe because it is your faith it makes reality. |
| Tx:21.54 | God's plan is simple— | never circular and never self-defeating. He has no Thoughts except |
| Tx:21.54 | God's plan is simple—never circular and | never self-defeating. He has no Thoughts except the Self-extending, |
| Tx:21.56 | in insanity, for it depends entirely on reason's absence. The ego | never uses it because it does not realize that it exists. The |
| Tx:21.58 | have shifted, and you have asked the question which the ego will | never ask. Does not your reason tell you now the question must have |
| Tx:21.64 | sin instead of healing, you would condemn the Son of God to what can | never be corrected. You tell him by your choice that he is damned— |
| Tx:21.72 | be disbanded in the presence of strength. Those who are strong are | never treacherous because they have no need to dream of power and to |
| Tx:21.73 | enemy. Yes, it can overrun the world and seek an enemy. But it can | never find what is not there. Yes, it can dream it found an enemy, |
| Tx:21.73 | even as it attacks, so that it runs at once to find another and | never comes to rest in victory. And as it runs, it turns against |
| Tx:21.88 | is a request, an asking for, and made by one whom God Himself will | never fail to answer. God has already given him all that he really |
| Tx:21.90 | now, for time is powerless because of your desire for what will | never change. For you have asked that nothing stand between the |
| Tx:22.1 | look on sin apart. No two can look on sin together, for they could | never see it in the same place and time. Sin is a strictly individual |
| Tx:22.4 | the Son of God. For what is born into a holy relationship can | never end. |
| Tx:22.7 | no messages at all you understand. For you have listened to what can | never communicate at all. Think, then, what happened. Denying what |
| Tx:22.12 | he knows because you knew it. He could not come to anyone but you, | never to “something else.” Where Christ has entered, no one is alone, |
| Tx:22.12 | to “something else.” Where Christ has entered, no one is alone, for | never could He find a home in separate ones. Yet must He be reborn |
| Tx:22.34 | These eyes, made not to see, will | never see. For the idea they represent left not its maker, and it is |
| Tx:22.63 | if only the different can attack. Either could be maintained, but | never both. The only question to be answered to decide which must be |
| Tx:23.8 | be attacked and overthrown. You may identify with this belief, but | never will it be more than madness. And fear will reign in madness |
| Tx:23.11 | are a body, you will believe you have forgotten it. Yet truth can | never be forgotten by itself, and you have not forgotten what you |
| Tx:23.15 | as real, the other vanquished and despised. Here will the Father | never be remembered. Yet no illusion can invade His home and drive |
| Tx:23.16 | Him. Over His home the Holy Spirit watches, sure that its peace can | never be disturbed. |
| Tx:23.19 | The “laws” of chaos can be brought to light, though | never understood. Chaotic laws are hardly meaningful and therefore |
| Tx:23.23 | between the Father and the Son. Now it appears that they can | never be one again. For one must always be condemned and by the |
| Tx:23.27 | loss becomes your gain, and thus it fails to recognize that you can | never take away save from yourself. Yet all the other laws must lead |
| Tx:23.29 | most treacherous and cunning enemy? It must be what you want but | never found. And now you “understand” the reason why you found it |
| Tx:23.31 | Never is your possession made complete. And never will your brother | |
| Tx:23.31 | Never is your possession made complete. And | never will your brother cease his attack on you for what you stole. |
| Tx:23.36 | them for the form they take and do not recognize the content. It | never changes. Can you paint rosy lips upon a skeleton, dress it in |
| Tx:23.37 | eternal barrier to Heaven. Illusions are but forms. Their content is | never true. |
| Tx:23.44 | of it? It can be kept shining before your vision, forever clear and | never out of sight if you defend it not. |
| Tx:23.48 | what it creates? And can it offer its creations all that it is and | never suffer loss? |
| Tx:23.51 | clash of forms is meaningless. And it is over when you realize it | never was begun. How can a battle be perceived as nothingness when |
| Tx:23.55 | Those with the strength of God in their awareness could | never think of battle. What could they gain but loss of their |
| Tx:24.4 | Beliefs will | never openly attack each other, because conflicting outcomes are |
| Tx:24.4 | to war in secret, where the results of conflict are kept unknown and | never brought to reason to be considered sensible or not. And many |
| Tx:24.8 | in specialness; his friend in a shared purpose. Specialness can | never share, for it depends on goals that you alone can reach. And he |
| Tx:24.8 | share, for it depends on goals that you alone can reach. And he must | never reach them, or your goal is jeopardized. Can love have meaning |
| Tx:24.11 | wage against him. Here must he be your enemy and not your friend. | Never can there be peace among the different. He is your friend |
| Tx:24.14 | like to itself and not like unto Him. His “special” sons are many, | never one, each one in exile from himself and Him of Whom they are a |
| Tx:24.16 | You can defend your specialness, but | never will you hear the Voice for God beside it. They speak a |
| Tx:24.17 | place. This is the only “cost” of truth: you will no longer see what | never was, nor hear what makes no sound. Is it a sacrifice to give up |
| Tx:24.22 | both might share the universe with Him Who chose that love could | never be divided and kept separate from what it is and must forever |
| Tx:24.28 | you. It can be thrown off balance by anything. What rests on nothing | never can be stable. However large and overblown it seems to be, it |
| Tx:24.29 | that is what it is—a secret vow that what God wants for you will | never be and that you will oppose His Will forever. Nor is it |
| Tx:24.47 | completion is His Own. He Who willed not to be without His Son could | never will that you be brotherless. And would He give a brother unto |
| Tx:24.49 | be sure that God is knowable and will be known to you. For He could | never leave His own creation. And the sign that this is so lies in |
| Tx:24.56 | is given you to take from him that both may end a journey that has | never been begun and needs no end. What never was is not a part of |
| Tx:24.56 | may end a journey that has never been begun and needs no end. What | never was is not a part of you. Yet you will think it is until you |
| Tx:24.58 | you a part of Him to save from pain and give you happiness. And | never doubt but that your specialness will disappear before the Will |
| Tx:24.59 | fully justified, you have pursued this goal with vigilance you | never thought to yield and effort that you never thought to cease. |
| Tx:24.59 | goal with vigilance you never thought to yield and effort that you | never thought to cease. And all this grim determination was for this |
| Tx:25.6 | have you be. And always is it faithful to your purpose from which it | never separates nor gives the slightest witness unto anything the |
| Tx:25.6 | a part of what it is your purpose to behold, for means and end are | never separate. And thus you learn what seems to have a life apart |
| Tx:25.8 | as all your brothers join as one in truth. Christ and His Father | never have been separate, and Christ abides within your understanding |
| Tx:25.10 | as one is meaningless. It is apparent that a mind so split could | never be the teacher of a Oneness which unites all things within |
| Tx:25.14 | on grounds that it will suddenly succeed and bring what it has | never brought before? |
| Tx:25.21 | from his Father. You need no forgiveness, for the wholly pure have | never sinned. Give then what He has given you that you may see His |
| Tx:25.22 | darkness into light be yours to share; that you may see as one what | never has been separate nor apart from all God's love as given |
| Tx:25.27 | elsewhere from their home, as if they lit a place where they could | never be, and you agree, then must the Maker of the world correct |
| Tx:25.30 | it must have been an error, not a sin. For what it claimed could | never be has been. Sin is attacked by punishment and so preserved. |
| Tx:25.31 | The Son of God could | never sin, but he can wish for what would hurt him. And he has the |
| Tx:25.35 | And from you will the rest you found extend, so that your peace can | never fall away and leave you homeless. Those who offer peace to |
| Tx:25.68 | the chill of fear comes over them when they are told that they have | never sinned. Their world depends on sin's stability. And they |
| Tx:25.77 | what justice must accord the Son of God. Let love decide and | never fear that you in your unfairness will deprive yourself of what |
| Tx:25.85 | denied. Seek to deprive, and you have been deprived. A miracle can | never be received because another could receive it not. Only |
| Tx:26.2 | built a wall so seeming solid that it looks as if what is inside can | never reach without, and what is out can never reach and join with |
| Tx:26.2 | as if what is inside can never reach without, and what is out can | never reach and join with what is locked away within the wall. Each |
| Tx:26.8 | he make, and only one was given him by One Who knows His gifts can | never suffer sacrifice and loss. God's justice rests in gentleness |
| Tx:26.22 | short of Heaven, for only perception needs salvation. Heaven was | never lost and so cannot be saved. Yet who can make a choice between |
| Tx:26.24 | as such. Where all reality has been withdrawn from what was | never true, can it be hard to give it up and choose what must be true? |
| Tx:26.30 | you can take while time remains and choice is meaningful. For | never will another road be made except the way to Heaven. You but |
| Tx:26.40 | a present light is dimly recognized. Once it is seen, this light can | never be forgotten. It must draw you from the past into the present, |
| Tx:26.59 | be beyond you to control or to prevent. What is thus kept apart can | never join. |
| Tx:26.60 | law—that each idea the mind conceives but adds to its abundance, | never takes away. This is as true of what is idly wished as what is |
| Tx:26.60 | their source is to invite illusions to be true, without success. For | never will success be possible in trying to deceive the Son of God. |
| Tx:26.61 | effects to other forms. And this is not release. God's Son could | never be content with less than full salvation and escape from guilt. |
| Tx:26.77 | joined! However much you wish he be condemned, God is in him. And | never will you know He is in you as well, while you attack His chosen |
| Tx:26.80 | tens of thousands? When They come, time's purpose is fulfilled. What | never was passes to nothingness when They have come. What hatred |
| Tx:26.84 | by Whom it was created. Where He dwells, His Son dwells with Him, | never separate. And They give thanks that They are welcome made at |
| Tx:27.1 | Who can combine the wholly incompatible and make a unity of what can | never join? Walk you the gentle way, and you will fear no evil and no |
| Tx:27.4 | you send lest he forget the injuries he gave from which you swear he | never will escape. This sick and sorry picture you accept, if only it |
| Tx:27.5 | Yet this one has not been used for purpose of attack and therefore | never suffered pain at all. It witnesses to the eternal truth that |
| Tx:27.6 | the innocence that he beholds in you. Here is the proof that he has | never sinned—that nothing which his madness bid him do was ever |
| Tx:27.9 | whose consequences still are there to see, so that the cause can | never be denied. |
| Tx:27.10 | see yourself a picture of the proof that what your function is can | never be! The Holy Spirit's picture changes not the body into |
| Tx:27.17 | Your body can be means to teach that it has | never suffered pain because of him. And in its healing can it offer |
| Tx:27.17 | what he did not do. And so is he convinced his innocence was | never lost and healed along with you. |
| Tx:27.18 | Thus does the miracle undo all things the world attests can | never be undone. And hopelessness and death must disappear before the |
| Tx:27.22 | No one can forgive until he learns correction is but to forgive and | never to accuse. Alone, you cannot see they are the same, and |
| Tx:27.26 | be a part of you while this perception lasts. What is condemned can | never be returned to its accuser, who hated it and hates it still. |
| Tx:27.31 | The picture of your brother that you see is wholly absent and has | never been. Let then the empty space it occupies be recognized as |
| Tx:27.35 | is no choice of function anywhere. The choice you fear to lose you | never had. Yet only this appears to interfere with power unlimited |
| Tx:27.51 | manner in accord with laws which have been properly perceived but | never violated. Fear you not the way that you perceive them. You are |
| Tx:27.71 | An honest choice could | never be perceived as one in which the choice is split between a tiny |
| Tx:27.79 | of every dream the world has ever had. The “hero” of this dream will | never change nor will its purpose. Though the dream itself takes many |
| Tx:27.81 | there really was a time when he knew nothing of a body and could | never have conceived this world as real. He would have seen at once |
| Tx:27.84 | device to keep your innocence by pushing guilt outside yourself but | never letting go! It is not easy to perceive the jest when all around |
| Tx:28.8 | forget. It is not past because He let It not be unremembered. It has | never changed because there never was a time in which He did not keep |
| Tx:28.8 | He let It not be unremembered. It has never changed because there | never was a time in which He did not keep It safely in your mind. Its |
| Tx:28.8 | because you thought that you remembered not their Cause. Yet was It | never absent from your mind, for it was not your Father's Will that |
| Tx:28.9 | What you remember | never was. It came from causelessness which you confused with cause. |
| Tx:28.9 | you have remembered consequences which were causeless and could | never be effects. The miracle reminds you of a Cause forever present, |
| Tx:28.9 | forever present, perfectly untouched by time and interference— | never changed from what It is. And you are Its effects, as changeless |
| Tx:28.10 | a judgment on His Son. You would deny Him His effects, yet have they | never been denied. There was no time in which His Son could be |
| Tx:28.14 | at all. He has done nothing. And in seeing this, he understands he | never had a need for doing anything and never did. His Cause is Its |
| Tx:28.14 | this, he understands he never had a need for doing anything and | never did. His Cause is Its effects. There never was a cause beside |
| Tx:28.14 | for doing anything and never did. His Cause is Its effects. There | never was a cause beside It that could generate a different past or |
| Tx:28.15 | forever on a shore where he can glimpse another shore which he can | never reach. His Father wills that he be lifted up and gently carried |
| Tx:28.21 | if it has no cause, it has no purpose. You may cause a dream, but | never will you give it real effects. For that would change its cause, |
| Tx:28.22 | cause without the consequences which would make it cause. And so it | never was. |
| Tx:28.31 | The end of dreaming is the end of fear, and love was | never in the world of dreams. The gap is little. Yet it holds the |
| Tx:28.35 | dream of healing in forgiveness lies and gently shows you that you | never sinned. The miracle would leave no proof of guilt to bring you |
| Tx:28.35 | miracle would leave no proof of guilt to bring you witness to what | never was. And in your storehouse it will make a place of welcome for |
| Tx:28.38 | is but illusion in the mind. And with the mind you would unite, but | never with the dream. It is the dream you fear and not the mind. You |
| Tx:28.47 | in. God is the alternate to dreams of fear. Who shares in them can | never share in Him. But who withdraws his mind from sharing them is |
| Tx:28.55 | you give because it has no feeling. It behaves in ways you want but | never makes the choice. It is not born and does not die. It can but |
| Tx:28.59 | of Me and I of you forever. Be you perfect as Myself, for you can | never be apart from Me.” His Son remembers not that he replied “I |
| Tx:28.64 | But | never you alone. This world is but the dream that you can be alone |
| Tx:29.2 | For love is treacherous to those who fear, since fear and hate can | never be apart. No one who hates but is afraid of love and therefore |
| Tx:29.26 | without, or both. Or it can be disguised in pleasant form. But | never is it absent from the dream, for fear is the material of dreams |
| Tx:29.29 | no betrayal but of this. The core of dreams the Holy Spirit gives is | never one of fear. The coverings may not appear to change, but what |
| Tx:29.39 | Where time has set an end is not where the eternal is. God's Son can | never change by what men made of him. He will be as he was and as he |
| Tx:29.43 | excepting there. Each idol that you worship when God calls will | never answer in His place. There is no other answer you can |
| Tx:29.52 | idol? Do you think you know? For idols are unrecognized as such and | never seen for what they really are. That is the only power which |
| Tx:29.52 | he may be replaced, no matter what their form. And it is this which | never is perceived and recognized. Be it a body or a thing, a place, |
| Tx:29.60 | tells you idols have no purpose here. For more than Heaven can you | never have. If Heaven is within, why would you seek for idols which |
| Tx:29.60 | of Himself. No idol can establish you as more than God. But you will | never be content with being less. |
| Tx:29.68 | Heaven can be heard, not with the ears, but with the holiness which | never left the altar which abides forever deep within the Son of God. |
| Tx:29.68 | the Son of God. And when he hears this song again, he knows he | never heard it not. And where is time, when dreams of judgment have |
| Tx:30.34 | what he has chosen for himself? God but ensured that you would | never lose your will when He gave you His perfect answer. Hear it now |
| Tx:30.39 | within the idol, thus reducing it to a specific form. Yet this could | never be your will because what shares in all creation cannot be |
| Tx:30.41 | It | never is the idol that you want. But what you think it offers you, |
| Tx:30.47 | of its rest in its eternal home, the Thought God holds of you has | never left the mind of its Creator Whom it knows, as its Creator |
| Tx:30.48 | Mind of God, but from your own. The star shines still; the sky has | never changed. But you, the holy Son of God Himself, are unaware of |
| Tx:30.49 | defensiveness entirely and rush to its embrace. The truth could | never be attacked. And this you knew when you made idols. They were |
| Tx:30.49 | made that this might be forgotten. You attack but false ideas and | never truthful ones. All idols are the false ideas you made to fill |
| Tx:30.51 | forms. And each one seems to break the rules you set for it. It | never was the thing you thought. It must appear to break your rules |
| Tx:30.52 | are but toys, my children. Do not grieve for them. Their dancing | never brought you joy. But neither were they things to frighten you |
| Tx:30.55 | you are asked to let yourself be free of all the dreams of what you | never were and seek no more to substitute the strength of idle wishes |
| Tx:30.62 | be given back to him. The gap between your brother and yourself was | never there. And what the Son of God knew in creation, he must know |
| Tx:30.65 | wanted in your hearts. Give up the world! But not to sacrifice. You | never wanted it. What happiness have you sought here that did not |
| Tx:30.67 | There | never was a time an idol brought you anything except the “gift” of |
| Tx:30.70 | Anger is | never justified. Attack has no foundation. It is here escape from |
| Tx:30.84 | make allowance for stability of meaning anywhere. Fear is a judgment | never justified. Its presence has no meaning but to show you wrote a |
| Tx:30.90 | because it can so easily be changed. This demonstrates that it was | never real and could not stem from his reality. For that is |
| Tx:31.1 | How simple is salvation! All it says is what was | never true is not true now and never will be. The impossible has not |
| Tx:31.1 | is salvation! All it says is what was never true is not true now and | never will be. The impossible has not occurred and can have no |
| Tx:31.8 | you in soft appeal to be your friend and let it join with you. And | never does a call remain unheard, misunderstood, nor left unanswered |
| Tx:31.22 | of care. There will be no assault upon your wish to hear a call that | never has been made. Nothing will hurt you in this holy place to |
| Tx:31.22 | but come away without the thoughts you did not want and that were | never true. |
| Tx:31.26 | of happiness is shortened by a span of time you cannot realize. You | never hate your brother for his sins, but only for your own. Whatever |
| Tx:31.27 | what you are? If you did not believe that you deserved attack, it | never would occur to you to give attack to anyone at all. Why should |
| Tx:31.29 | causes change. And so the body, where no learning can occur, could | never change unless the mind preferred the body change in its |
| Tx:31.31 | you to change what you believe. The body will but follow. It can | never lead you where you would not be. It does not guard your sleep |
| Tx:31.41 | from what you are will lead you to confusion and despair. Yet has He | never left His Thoughts to die, without their Source forever in |
| Tx:31.45 | world accords to those who would be generous and good. This aspect | never makes the first attack. But every day a hundred little things |
| Tx:31.50 | of yourself, that you will choose to follow this world's laws and | never seek to go beyond its roads nor realize the way you see |
| Tx:31.62 | are, as flesh or Spirit in your own belief. If you choose flesh, you | never will escape the body as your own reality, for you have chosen |
| Tx:31.64 | salvation will undo and let you see another world your eyes could | never find. Be not concerned how this could ever be. You do not |
| Tx:31.67 | think you are in earth or Heaven. What your Father wills for you can | never change. The truth in you remains as radiant as a star, as pure |
| Tx:31.70 | it is thus you see him more than just a body, for the good is | never what the body seems to be. The actions of the body are |
| Tx:31.71 | For both are concepts of yourself which can be interchanged, but | never jointly held. The contrast is far greater than you think, for |
| Tx:31.86 | in you. And what you choose is what you think is real. Simply by | never using weakness to direct your actions, you have given it no |
| Tx:31.88 | make can not prevail against what God Himself would have you be. Be | never fearful of temptation then, but see it as it is—another |
| Tx:31.91 | all your weakness with the strength that comes from God and that can | never fail. And thus are miracles as natural as fear and agony |
| W1:7.6 | It is the reason why you are | never upset for the reason you think. |
| W1:16.3 | In addition to | never being idle, salvation requires that you recognize that every |
| W1:18.1 | in learning that the thoughts which give rise to what you see are | never neutral or unimportant. It also emphasizes the idea that minds |
| W1:19.1 | and its results are really simultaneous, for cause and effect are | never separate. |
| W1:30.1 | up before you, and you will look upon it and see in it what you have | never seen before. Nor will what you saw before be even faintly |
| W1:41.3 | You can | never be deprived of your perfect holiness because its Source goes |
| W1:41.3 | holiness because its Source goes with you wherever you go. You can | never suffer because the Source of all joy goes with you wherever you |
| W1:41.3 | because the Source of all joy goes with you wherever you go. You can | never be alone because the Source of all life goes with you wherever |
| W1:41.7 | in connection with this kind of practice as we go along. But it will | never fail completely, and instant success is possible. |
| W1:43.2 | and does not exist. Yet in salvation, which is the undoing of what | never was, perception has a mighty purpose. Made by the Son of God |
| W1:46.1 | God does not forgive because He has | never condemned. And there must be condemnation before forgiveness is |
| W1:51.6 | [5] I am | never upset for the reason I think. I am never upset for the reason I |
| W1:51.6 | [5] I am never upset for the reason I think. I am | never upset for the reason I think because I am constantly trying to |
| W1:52.2 | [6] I am upset because I see what is not there. Reality is | never frightening. It is impossible that it could upset me. Reality |
| W1:60.2 | is the Love in which I forgive. God does not forgive, because He has | never condemned. The blameless cannot blame, and those who have |
| W1:68.5 | feel without them. If you succeed even by ever so little, there will | never be a problem in motivation ever again. |
| W1:70.12 | before you can reach the light. But remember also that you have | never found anything in the cloud patterns you imagined that endured |
| W1:75.7 | have forgiven the world today. You can look upon it now as if you | never saw it before. You do not know yet what it looks like. You |
| W1:75.9 | forgiveness entitles you to vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit | never fails to give the gift of sight to the forgiving. Believe He |
| W1:76.2 | it. For if you could, you would forever seek where it is not and | never find it. The idea for today tells you once again how simple is |
| W1:76.7 | The laws of God can | never be replaced. We will devote today to rejoicing that this is so. |
| W1:76.10 | nothing is replaced by something else. God's laws forever give and | never take. |
| W1:77.3 | You have been assured that the Kingdom of God is within you and can | never be lost. We ask no more than what belongs to us in truth. |
| W1:77.4 | for what is rightfully yours. Remind yourself also that miracles are | never taken from one and given to another and that in asking for your |
| W1:86.2 | for salvation will work. And I will rejoice because His plan can | never fail. |
| W1:93.4 | overjoyed to be assured that all the evil that you think you did was | never done, that all your “sins” are nothing, that you are as pure |
| W1:94.5 | Now try to reach the Son of God in you. This is the Self that | never sinned nor made an image to replace reality. This is the Self |
| W1:94.5 | sinned nor made an image to replace reality. This is the Self which | never left its home in God to walk the world uncertainly. This is the |
| W1:96.1 | and none of them has worked. The opposites you see in you will | never be compatible. But one exists. |
| W1:96.3 | and good and evil have no meeting place. The self you made can | never be your Self, nor can your Self be split in two and still be |
| W1:99.1 | resulting in a state of conflict now between what is and what could | never be. |
| W1:99.2 | can escape illusions. Yet it is not truth because it undoes what was | never done. |
| W1:99.4 | of pain? What but a thought of God could be this plan by which the | never done is overlooked and sins forgotten which were never real? |
| W1:99.4 | by which the never done is overlooked and sins forgotten which were | never real? |
| W1:99.9 | the darkened places of your mind which thought the thoughts that | never were His Will. |
| W1:100.8 | that sacrifice is asked. You but receive according to God's plan and | never lose or sacrifice or die. |
| W1:101.3 | salvation must be pain. Pain is the cost of sin, and suffering can | never be escaped if sin is real. Salvation must be feared, for it |
| W1:101.5 | sin is not real, and all that you believe must come from sin will | never happen, for it has no cause. Accept Atonement with an open mind |
| W1:105.4 | will learn a different way of looking at a gift. God's gifts will | never lessen when they are given away. They but increase thereby. As |
| W1:109.5 | while time goes by without its touch upon you, for your rest can | never change in any way at all. |
| W1:121.6 | Thus you return your mind as one to Him Who is your Self and Who can | never sin. |
| W1:121.11 | perceive some light in him somewhere—a little gleam which you had | never noticed. Try to find some little spark of brightness shining |
| W1:122.1 | Do you want a quietness that cannot be disturbed, a gentleness that | never can be hurt, a deep, abiding comfort, and a rest so perfect it |
| W1:122.1 | can be hurt, a deep, abiding comfort, and a rest so perfect it can | never be upset? |
| W1:122.4 | be sought? What fancied value, trivial effect, or transient promise | never to be kept can hold more hope than what forgiveness brings? Why |
| W1:122.8 | newly born, arise in your awareness. What you will remember then can | never be described. Yet your forgiveness offers it to you. |
| W1:125.4 | where He abides forever in the holiness which He created and will | never leave. |
| W1:125.8 | In quiet listen to your Self today, and let Him tell you God has | never left His Son, and you have never left your Self. |
| W1:125.8 | today, and let Him tell you God has never left His Son, and you have | never left your Self. |
| W1:127.1 | and no distinctions. It is like itself, unchanged throughout. It | never alters with a person or a circumstance. It is the Heart of God, |
| W1:127.9 | spared a future like the past. Today we leave the past behind us, | never more to be remembered. And we raise our eyes upon a different |
| W1:129.5 | space away from timelessness. Here can you but look forward, | never back to see again the world you do not want. Here is the world |
| W1:132.19 | release, although you may not fully understand as yet that you could | never be released alone. |
| W1:133.7 | chose is valueless. A temporary value is without all value. Time can | never take away a value that is real. What fades and dies was never |
| W1:133.7 | can never take away a value that is real. What fades and dies was | never there and makes no offering to him who chooses it. He is |
| W1:134.11 | wakened from his dream by understanding what he thought he saw was | never there. And now he cannot feel that all escape has been denied |
| W1:135.19 | is your good? Perhaps you have misunderstood His plan, for He would | never offer pain to you. But your defenses did not let you see His |
| W1:136.7 | standing for attack upon the whole, successful in effect, and | never to be seen as whole again. And yet you have forgotten that they |
| W1:136.16 | And truth will come, for it has | never been apart from us. It merely waits for just this invitation |
| W1:137.4 | that truth is true. The separation sickness would impose has | never really happened. To be healed is merely to accept what always |
| W1:137.4 | must be shown that what they look upon is false. So healing, | never needed by the truth, must demonstrate that sickness is not real. |
| W1:137.5 | but not in truth itself. Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins that | never were accomplished, healing but removes illusions that have not |
| W1:137.5 | Just as the real world will arise to take the place of what has | never been at all, healing but offers restitution for imagined states |
| W1:137.10 | to all the world when you let healing come to you. But you are | never healed alone. And legions upon legions will receive the gift |
| W1:137.12 | invitation be refused? Ask the inevitable to occur, and you will | never fail. The other choice is but to ask what cannot be to be, and |
| W1:139.4 | Yet he could | never be alive at all unless he knew the answer. If he asks as if he |
| W1:140.9 | We will succeed to the extent to which we realize that there can | never be a meaningful distinction made between what is untrue and |
| W1:151.3 | rests upon the witness that your senses offer you. Yet witness | never falser was than this. But how else do you judge the world you |
| W1:152.14 | as we humbly ask our Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who | never left will come again to our awareness, grateful to restore His |
| W1:153.6 | and your own weakness seen apart from Him. Defenselessness can | never be attacked because it recognizes strength so great attack is |
| W1:153.18 | In time, with practice, you will | never cease to think of Him and hear His loving Voice guiding your |
| W1:153.19 | will remind ourselves that He remains beside us through the day and | never leaves our weakness unsupported by His strength. |
| W1:153.21 | doubt that you will reach your final goal. The ministers of God can | never fail because the love and strength and peace that shine from |
| W1:153.21 | is all you need to give Him in return. You lay aside but what was | never real to look on Christ and see His sinlessness. |
| W1:157.9 | which transcends all vision, even this, the holiest. This you will | never teach, for you attained it not through learning. Yet the vision |
| W1:158.9 | and all effects they seemed to have are gone with them, undone and | never to be done. |
| W1:159.3 | itself, for it reflects eternal love and the rebirth of love which | never died but has been kept obscure. Christ's vision pictures |
| W1:159.5 | shadows there, transparent, faintly seen, at times forgot, and | never able to obscure the light that shines beyond them. Holiness has |
| W1:159.6 | already. All can be received but for the asking. Here the door is | never locked, and no one is denied his least request or his most |
| W1:159.8 | home. They can be brought from here back to the world, but they can | never grow in its unnourishing and shallow soil. They need the light |
| W1:161.1 | we practice today's idea. Here is the answer to temptation which can | never fail to welcome in the Christ where fear and anger had |
| W1:162.2 | in answer to its call. And those who live and hear this sound will | never look on death. |
| W1:163.3 | certain footsteps when the time has come for its arrival. It will | never fail to take all life as hostage to itself. |
| W1:164.4 | not lost. There is a sense of holiness in you the thought of sin has | never touched. All this today you will remember. Faithfulness in |
| W1:165.7 | are meaningless, for God is certain. And the Thought of Him is | never absent. Sureness must abide within you who are host to Him. |
| W1:166.2 | and true believes in two creators or in one, himself alone. But | never in one God. |
| W1:166.14 | change of mind becomes the proof that who accepts God's gifts can | never suffer anything. You are entrusted with the world's release |
| W1:167.4 | because of causes you cannot control, you did not make, and you can | never change. It is the fixed belief ideas can leave their source and |
| W1:167.5 | can go far beyond themselves. But they cannot give birth to what was | never given them. As they are made, so will their making be. As they |
| W1:167.9 | while. It dreams of time—an interval in which what seems to happen | never has occurred, the changes wrought are substanceless, and all |
| W1:169.6 | disappeared into His Father, as his Father has in him. The world has | never been at all. Eternity remains a constant state. |
| W1:R5.6 | understands Itself, is perfect in Its knowledge and Its love, and | never changes from Its constant state of union with Its Father and |
| W1:181.10 | attests to our remembrance of the holy Self Which knows no sin and | never could conceive of anything without Its sinlessness. We seek for |
| W1:182.4 | now so distorted that you merely hold a picture of a past that | never happened. Yet there is a Child in you Who seeks His Father's |
| W1:183.8 | Thus do we give an invitation which can | never be refused. And God will come and answer it Himself. Think not |
| W1:186.11 | and one you can attain. Your plan may be impossible, but God's can | never fail because He is its Source. |
| W1:186.14 | These are the forms which | never can deceive, although they come from Formlessness Itself. |
| W1:187.4 | value by the act of giving them away, and you are sure that you will | never lose them. What you thought you did not have is thereby proven |
| W1:187.6 | Never forget you give but to yourself. Who understands what giving | |
| W1:187.8 | Never believe that you can sacrifice. There is no place for sacrifice | |
| W1:188.2 | to find it in the future or believe it has been lost already or was | never there? It can so easily be looked upon that arguments which |
| W1:188.5 | The peace of God can | never be contained. Who recognizes it within himself must give it. |
| W1:194.7 | found his way to present peace and certainty of care the world can | never threaten. He is sure that his perception may be faulty but will |
| W1:194.7 | threaten. He is sure that his perception may be faulty but will | never lack correction. He is free to choose again when he has been |
| W1:195.4 | our Father that in us all things will find their freedom. It will | never be that some are loosed while others still are bound, for who |
| W1:196.2 | for today. It may in fact appear to be a sign that punishment can | never be escaped because the ego, under what it sees as threat, is |
| W1:196.8 | had thought to banish, can be welcomed back within the holy mind He | never left. |
| W1:197.5 | to yourself, and what belongs to God must be His own. Yet you will | never realize His gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, |
| W1:197.6 | take away the sins you think you see outside yourself, and you can | never think the gifts of God are lent but for a little while before |
| W1:197.9 | denied yourself when you forgot the function God has given you. But | never think that He has ever ceased to offer thanks to you. |
| W1:199.2 | a mind because it has been given to the Source of Love. And fear can | never enter in a mind that has attached itself to Love. It rests in |
| W1:200.7 | he hope to find in such a world? It cannot have reality because it | never was created. Is it here that he would seek for peace? Or must |
| W2:I.5 | you have recognized it is your will He do so. And you could have | never come this far unless you saw, however dimly, that it is your |
| W2:225.2 | it in peace together. You have reached your hand to me, and I will | never leave you. We are one, and it is but this oneness that we seek |
| W2:227.2 | And so today we find our glad return to Heaven, which we | never really left. The Son of God this day lays down his dreams. The |
| W2:234.1 | sin and guilt are gone and we have reached again the holy peace we | never left. Merely a tiny instant has elapsed between eternity and |
| W2:240.1 | is deception. It attests that you have seen yourself as you could | never be and therefore look upon a world which is impossible. Not one |
| W2:241.2 | now, and so we come at last to You again. Father, Your Son, who | never left, returns to Heaven and his home. How glad are we to have |
| W2:248.1 | myself. What is in pain is but illusion in my mind. What dies was | never living in reality and did but mock the truth about myself. Now |
| W2:WIB.3 | every dream is born. For only love creates in truth, and truth can | never fear. Made to be fearful, must the body serve the purpose given |
| W2:306.2 | And so, our Father, we return to You, remembering we | never went away, remembering Your holy gifts to us. In gratitude and |
| W2:WILJ.1 | for God proclaim that what is false is false and what is true has | never changed. And this the judgment is in which perception ends. At |
| W2:320.1 | wills with his Creator and Redeemer must be done. His holy will can | never be denied because his Father shines upon his mind and lays |
| W2:326.1 | Father, I was created in Your Mind, a holy thought that | never left its home. I am forever Your Effect, and You forever and |
| W2:327.2 | Father, I thank You that Your promises will | never fail in my experience if I but test them out. Let me attempt |

| W2:331.1 | without a certain way to his release? You love me, Father. You could | never leave me desolate, to die within a world of pain and cruelty. |
| W2:332.1 | illusions. Truth undoes its evil dreams by shining them away. Truth | never makes attack. It merely is. And by its presence is the mind |
| W2:333.2 | dreams. No light but this can save the world. For this alone will | never fail in anything, being Your gift to Your beloved Son. |
| W2:335.1 | Forgiveness is a choice. I | never see my brother as he is, for that is far beyond perception. |

| W2:356.1 | Father, You promised You would | never fail to answer any call Your Son might make to You. It does not |
| W2:E.6 | all about. His Love surrounds you, and of this be sure: that I will | never leave you comfortless. |

| M:1.4 | is very tired now. It is old and worn and without hope. There was | never a question of outcome, for what can change the Will of God? But |
| M:2.2 | corrects illusions, not the truth. Therefore it corrects what | never was. Further, the plan for this correction was established and |
| M:2.2 | Answer given. In time this happened very long ago. In reality it | never happened at all. |
| M:4.3 | In fact, perception is learning, because cause and effect are | never separated. The teachers of God have trust in the world, because |
| M:4.12 | in all things, they are honest. They can only succeed because they | never do their will alone. They choose for all mankind, for all the |
| M:4.24 | it be restored to them in newness and in joy so glorious they could | never have conceived of such a change. Nothing is now as it was |

| W1:31.3 | each to be considered for a moment and then replaced by the | next. Try not to establish any thought of hierarchy among them. Watch |
| W1:34.3 | them arise in your mind, and let each one go, to be replaced by the | next. |
| W1:61.9 | This is the first of a number of giant steps we will take in the | next few weeks. Try today to begin to build a firm foundation for |
| W1:79.3 | different problems seems to confront you, and as one is settled the | next one and the next arise. There seems to be no end to them. There |
| W1:79.3 | seems to confront you, and as one is settled the next one and the | next arise. There seems to be no end to them. There is no time in |
| W1:95.9 | to let them go. Let us therefore be determined, particularly for the | next week or so, to be willing to forgive ourselves for our lapses in |
| W1:96.2 | and doubt, each one as futile as the one before and failing as the | next one surely will. |
| W1:98.12 | the hour, let your time be spent in happy preparation for the | next five minutes you will spend again with Him. Repeat today's idea |

| W1:133.9 | Your | next consideration is the one on which the others rest. Why is the |
| W1:R4.1 | Today we will begin to concentrate on readiness for what will follow | next. Such is our aim for this review and for the lessons following. |
| W1:170.6 | Next are the attributes of love bestowed upon its “enemy.” For fear | |
| W1:I2.1 | Our | next few lessons make a special point of firming up your willingness |
| W1:193.16 | give it application to the happenings the hour brought, so that the | next one is free of the one before. The chains of time are easily |
| W1:194.3 | even die. And so each instant given unto God in passing, with the | next one given Him already, is a time of your release from sadness, |
| W1:196.8 | Our | next steps will be easy if you take this one today. From there we go |
| W2:I.11 | be reviewed each day, each one of them to be continued till the | next is given you. They should be slowly read and thought about a |
| W2:284.1 | the truth—at first to be but said and then repeated many times and | next to be accepted as but partly true with many reservations. Then |
| M:4.6 | Next, the teacher of God must go through a “period of sorting-out.” | |
| M:4.7 | no point in sorting out the valuable from the valueless unless the | next obvious step is taken. The third step is rarely if ever begun |
| M:4.9 | The | next stage is indeed a “period of unsettling.” Now must the teacher |
| M:17.8 | even dimly grasped, the way is open. Now it is possible to take the | next step. The interpretation can be changed at last. Magic thoughts |

| Tx:24.63 | of the love and care, the strong protection, the thought by day and | night, the deep concern, the powerful conviction this is you belong |

| W1:64.5 | today. Let us remind ourselves of it in the morning and again at | night and all through the day as well. |
| W1:92.8 | It does not change and flicker and go out. It does not shift from | night to day and back to darkness till the morning comes again. The |
| W1:92.11 | morning meeting, we will use the day in preparation for the time at | night when we will meet again in hope and trust. Let us repeat as |
| W1:121.8 | on your own behalf. We will devote ten minutes in the morning and at | night another ten to learning how to give forgiveness and receive |
| W1:129.7 | willingness to make this change ten minutes in the morning and at | night and once more in between. Begin with this: |
| W1:137.14 | ten minutes to these thoughts with which we will conclude today at | night as well: |
| W1:139.10 | Five minutes in the morning and at | night we will devote to dedicate our minds to our assignment for |
| W1:R4.6 | the warming of the water by the sun, the silver of the moon on it by | night. So do we start each practice period in this review with |

| W1:189.2 | a while. It blesses you throughout the day and watches through the | night as silent guardian of your holy sleep. It sees salvation in you |

| Tx:26.28 | each gift that brings him nearer to his home. Not one is lost, and | none is cherished more than any other. Each reminds him of His |
| Tx:26.48 | perceived, but only known. What is perceived takes many forms, but | none has meaning. Brought to truth, its senselessness is quite |
| Tx:27.38 | asked. The world can only ask a double question with many answers, | none of which will do. It does not ask a question to be answered, but |

| Tx:31.36 | point to still another road. No longer look for hope where there is | none. Make fast your learning now, and understand you but waste time |

| W1:4.1 | your thoughts, that they represent such a mixture that, in a sense, | none of them can be called “good” or “bad.” This is why they do not |
| W1:4.2 | required. Do not be afraid to use “good” thoughts as well as “bad.” | None of them represents your real thoughts, which are being covered |
| W1:47.2 | Of yourself, you can do | none of these things. To believe that you can is to put your trust |
| W1:92.8 | give but to itself. No one can ask in vain to share its sight, and | none who enters its abode can leave without a miracle before his eyes |
| W1:96.1 | of this self-perception. You have sought many such solutions, and | none of them has worked. The opposites you see in you will never be |
| W1:121.4 | yet it sees no hope. It wants escape, yet can conceive of | none because it sees the sinful everywhere. |
| W1:128.2 | pass it by, without delaying to perceive some hope where there is | none. Be you deceived no more. The world you see has nothing that you |
| W1:129.2 | that you have cherished for a while. No lasting love is found, for | none is here. This is the world of time, where all things end. |

| Tx:2.39 | of understanding is no longer necessary. The eternally creative have | nothing to learn. Only after the separation was it necessary to |
| Tx:2.68 | Nothing the Spiritual eye perceives can induce fear. Everything that | |
| Tx:2.82 | conflict could not have arisen. Then the whole process is | nothing more than a series of pragmatic steps in the larger process |
| Tx:2.99 | in, the other has been denied. In the conflict fear is really | nothing, and love is everything. This is because whenever light |
| Tx:2.100 | ultimately there is no compromise possible between everything and | nothing. Time is essentially a device by which all compromise in this |
| Tx:2.103 | are some additional points which might be helpful here. Readiness is | nothing more than the prerequisite for accomplishment. The two should |
| Tx:3.14 | that all such thinking be dispelled that we must be very sure that | nothing of this kind remains in your mind. I was not punished because |
| Tx:3.15 | his own “evil” past to God. The “evil conscience” from the past has | nothing to do with God. He did not create it, and He does not |
| Tx:3.17 | and ambiguous to the partly willing. The Atonement itself radiates | nothing but truth. It therefore epitomizes harmlessness and sheds |
| Tx:3.18 | The Resurrection demonstrated that | nothing can destroy truth. Good can withstand any form of evil |
| Tx:3.19 | Nothing can prevail against a Son of God who commends his Spirit into | |
| Tx:3.24 | not sacrifice, is the only appropriate gift to His own altar, where | nothing except true perfection belongs. The understanding of the |
| Tx:3.28 | The miracle perceives everything as it is. If | nothing but the truth exists (and this is really a redundant |
| Tx:3.54 | the power of perception, but it also implies that there is | nothing to know. Knowing is not open to interpretation. It is |
| Tx:3.56 | utterly meaningless. Essentially, a prayer for forgiveness is | nothing more than a request that we may be able to recognize |
| Tx:3.57 | Soul in His own Thought and of a quality like to His own. There is | nothing else. Perception, on the other hand, is impossible without a |
| Tx:3.58 | What happens to perceptions if there are no judgments and there is | nothing but perfect equality? Perception becomes impossible. Truth |
| Tx:3.59 | alien to human thinking, in which if anyone has everything, there is | nothing left. God's miracles are as total as His Thoughts because |
| Tx:3.64 | or in pleasant disguises in what seem to be his happier dreams. | Nothing that you have refused to accept can be brought into |
| Tx:3.72 | to believe that a thought system which is based on lies is weak. | Nothing made by a Child of God is without power. It is essential to |
| Tx:3.79 | return to this beginning. Much has been perceived since then, but | nothing else has happened. That is why your Souls are still in peace, |
| Tx:4.8 | maintains that the same thought system can stand on two foundations. | Nothing can reach the Soul from the ego, and nothing from the Soul |
| Tx:4.8 | on two foundations. Nothing can reach the Soul from the ego, and | nothing from the Soul can strengthen the ego or reduce the conflict |
| Tx:4.10 | upon it. This is very real to you. You cannot undo this by doing | nothing and not changing. |
| Tx:4.14 | I have no right to set your learning limits for you. Once again— | nothing you do or think or wish or make is necessary to establish |
| Tx:4.19 | Of your egos you can do | nothing to save yourselves or others, but of your Souls you can do |
| Tx:4.19 | God for His creations, who are wholly worthy of Him and only of Him. | Nothing else is sufficiently worthy to be a gift for a creation of |
| Tx:4.31 | to convince itself that it is real. “Self esteem” in ego terms means | nothing more than that the ego has deluded itself into accepting its |
| Tx:4.35 | its particular perception of magic. The “battle for survival” is | nothing more than the ego's struggle to preserve itself and its |
| Tx:4.36 | is not in danger and does not need to be salvaged. Salvation is | nothing more than “right-mindedness,” which is not the One-Mindedness |
| Tx:4.53 | for. Be very honest with yourself about this, for we must hide | nothing from each other. If you will really try to do this, you have |
| Tx:4.59 | of something you want and do not have. Know you are deprived of | nothing except by your own decisions, and then decide otherwise. |
| Tx:4.62 | of the ego and do not be deceived by it. Know it offers you | nothing. When you have given up this voluntary dispiriting, you will |
| Tx:4.66 | for Christ is the Son of God. The second coming of Christ means | nothing more than the end of the ego's rule over part of the minds of |
| Tx:4.85 | The ego is | nothing more than a part of your belief about yourselves. Your other |
| Tx:4.99 | individually but who want to share it to increase their joy. | Nothing that is real can be increased except by sharing. That is why |
| Tx:4.102 | are invulnerable because they are not protecting their egos, so that | nothing can hurt them. Their helpfulness is their praise of God, and |
| Tx:4.104 | are often looked down on by the ego because of its belief that | nothing but a perfect body is worthy as its own temple. |
| Tx:5.9 | can bring Him to you only at your own invitation. The Holy Spirit is | nothing more than your own right mind. He was also mine. The Bible |
| Tx:5.47 | The Atonement is the guarantee of the safety of the Kingdom. | Nothing good is lost because it comes from the Holy Spirit, the Voice |
| Tx:5.47 | lost because it comes from the Holy Spirit, the Voice for creation. | Nothing that is not good was ever created and therefore cannot be |
| Tx:5.53 | except your wholeness. Show him that he cannot hurt you and hold | nothing against him, or you hold it against yourself. Teaching is |
| Tx:5.57 | the complete can think completely, and the thinking of God lacks | nothing. Everything you think that is not through the Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:5.58 | who are so holy suffer? All your past except its beauty is gone, and | nothing is left except a blessing. You can indeed depart in peace, |
| Tx:5.74 | they are based on a complete fallacy which they were made to uphold. | Nothing the ego perceives is interpreted correctly. Not only does it |
| Tx:6.4 | emphasis we laid upon it was that it was not a form of punishment. | Nothing, however, can be really explained in negative terms only. |
| Tx:6.4 | in what it teaches if it is properly understood. The crucifixion is | nothing more than an extreme example. Its value, like the value of |
| Tx:6.35 | and difficult. It is surely clear, however, that the perfect need | nothing and cannot experience perfection as a difficult |
| Tx:6.37 | by recognizing Himself in every mind and thus perceives them as one. | Nothing conflicts in this perception, because what the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:6.40 | holds knowledge safe through His impartial perception. By attacking | nothing, He presents no barrier at all to the communication of God. |
| Tx:6.50 | a priceless part of His Kingdom, which He created as part of Him. | Nothing else exists, and only this is real. You have chosen a sleep |
| Tx:6.50 | but the sleep is not real, and God calls you to awake. There will be | nothing left of your dream when you hear Him, because you will be |
| Tx:6.60 | light is always the call to awake, whatever you have been dreaming. | Nothing lasting lies in dreams, and the Holy Spirit, shining with the |
| Tx:6.61 | last forever. Many think this is accomplished through death, but | nothing is accomplished through death because death is nothing. |
| Tx:6.61 | death, but nothing is accomplished through death because death is | nothing. Everything is accomplished through life, and life is of the |
| Tx:6.64 | be offered to the equal Sons of God, and that is full appreciation. | Nothing more and nothing less. Without a range, an order of |
| Tx:6.64 | equal Sons of God, and that is full appreciation. Nothing more and | nothing less. Without a range, an order of difficulty is meaningless, |
| Tx:6.80 | order of difficulty in miracles has not yet been accepted, because | nothing is difficult that is wholly desired. To desire wholly is to |
| Tx:7.6 | but it is hard to explain in words because words are symbols, and | nothing that is true needs to be explained. However, the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:7.7 | He does not teach, because His creations are changeless. He does | nothing last, because He created first and for always. It must be |
| Tx:7.18 | direct and perfectly united. It is totally without strain, because | nothing discordant ever enters. That is why it is the Kingdom of God. |
| Tx:7.18 | belongs to Him and is therefore like Him. That is its reality, and | nothing can assail it. |
| Tx:7.19 | it is not true that the table is now minus three apples. If there is | nothing on the table, it does not matter what was there in terms of |
| Tx:7.30 | because they are not in doubt. They do not raise questions, because | nothing questionable enters their minds. This holds them in perfect |
| Tx:7.32 | through prediction, and has no control over them at all. Science is | nothing more than an approach to what already is. Like inspiration it |
| Tx:7.37 | it to you as a gift. You do not want it. It is not a gift. It is | nothing at all. God has given you a gift which you both have and are. |
| Tx:7.38 | they are the laws of Truth. But seek this only because you can find | nothing else. There is nothing else. God is all in all in a very |
| Tx:7.38 | But seek this only because you can find nothing else. There is | nothing else. God is all in all in a very literal sense. All being is |
| Tx:7.39 | The body is | nothing more than a framework for developing abilities. It is |
| Tx:7.42 | only strengthens. Magic always tries to weaken. Healing perceives | nothing in the healer that everyone else does not share with him. |
| Tx:7.51 | do not want to share my body in communion, because that is to share | nothing. [Would I try to share an illusion with the most holy |
| Tx:7.59 | mind, it is willing to attach itself to anything else. But there is | nothing else. It does not follow that the mind cannot make illusions, |
| Tx:7.60 | understanding brings appreciation, and appreciation brings love. | Nothing else can be understood, because nothing else is real, and |
| Tx:7.60 | appreciation brings love. Nothing else can be understood, because | nothing else is real, and therefore nothing else has meaning. |
| Tx:7.60 | else can be understood, because nothing else is real, and therefore | nothing else has meaning. |
| Tx:7.66 | do attack. The attack must be blind, however, because there is | nothing to attack. Therefore, they make up images, perceive them as |
| Tx:7.66 | them for their unworthiness. That is all the world of the ego is— | nothing. It has no meaning. It does not exist. Do not try to |
| Tx:7.69 | Creation, not separation, is your will because it is God's, and | nothing that opposes this means anything at all. Being a perfect |
| Tx:7.74 | you include them in it, you are giving life to them, except there is | nothing there to receive your gift. |
| Tx:7.75 | unaware of your gift, because you do not give it. You cannot make | nothing live since it cannot be enlivened. Therefore, you are not |
| Tx:7.75 | life, since that is not the Will of your Creator. You can do | nothing apart from Him, and you do do nothing apart from Him. Keep |
| Tx:7.75 | of your Creator. You can do nothing apart from Him, and you do do | nothing apart from Him. Keep His way to remember yourselves and teach |
| Tx:7.100 | outcome depends on the willingness to see it, but its truth has | nothing to do with your willingness at all. Truth is God's Will. |
| Tx:7.101 | and you will be giving up the ego. But you will be sacrificing | nothing. On the contrary, you will be gaining everything. If you |
| Tx:7.107 | of difficulty in everything. This is because the ego perceives | nothing as wholly desirable. By demonstrating to yourselves that |
| Tx:7.109 | were created for it. God watches over His Children and denies them | nothing. Yet when they deny Him, they do not know this, because they |
| Tx:7.111 | gift in anyone else, you have acknowledged what He has given you. | Nothing is as easy to perceive as truth. This is the perception which |
| Tx:8.8 | the Holy Spirit entirely, which is quite impossible, you could learn | nothing from the ego because the ego knows nothing. |
| Tx:8.8 | you could learn nothing from the ego because the ego knows | nothing. |
| Tx:8.20 | regardless of the teacher you choose, is know thyself. There is | nothing else to learn. Everyone is looking for himself and for the |
| Tx:8.32 | Nothing God created can oppose your will, as nothing God created can | |
| Tx:8.32 | Nothing God created can oppose your will, as | nothing God created can oppose His. God gave your will its power, |
| Tx:8.33 | yours and have not let it be free. Of yourselves you can do | nothing, because of yourselves you are nothing. I am nothing without |
| Tx:8.33 | Of yourselves you can do nothing, because of yourselves you are | nothing. I am nothing without the Father, and you are nothing without |
| Tx:8.33 | you can do nothing, because of yourselves you are nothing. I am | nothing without the Father, and you are nothing without me, because |
| Tx:8.33 | you are nothing. I am nothing without the Father, and you are | nothing without me, because by denying the Father you deny yourself. |
| Tx:8.36 | on their behalf, as I am offering you mine on yours. Alone we can do | nothing, but together our wills fuse into something whose power is |
| Tx:8.39 | back to all His Children, because I received it of Him for us all. | Nothing can prevail against our united wills, because nothing can |
| Tx:8.39 | for us all. Nothing can prevail against our united wills, because | nothing can prevail against God's. Would you know the Will of God for |
| Tx:8.39 | it of me who knows it for you, and you will find it. I will deny you | nothing, as God denies me nothing. |
| Tx:8.39 | you, and you will find it. I will deny you nothing, as God denies me | nothing. |
| Tx:8.42 | of God for anything the world has to offer. The world can add | nothing to the power and the glory of God and His holy Sons, but it |
| Tx:8.43 | That is not because he is deprived of anything else, but because | nothing else is worthy of him. What God and His Sons create is |
| Tx:8.44 | loving father left his home and thought he squandered everything for | nothing of any value, although he did not know its worthlessness at |
| Tx:8.44 | because only the son himself was his father's treasure. He wanted | nothing else. |
| Tx:8.48 | [because it is] a contradiction in terms which actually leaves | nothing. [You can make yourself powerless only in a way that has no |
| Tx:8.58 | Rejoice, then, that of yourselves you can do | nothing. You are not of yourselves. He of Whom you are has willed |
| Tx:8.60 | There is | nothing so frustrating to a learner as to be placed in a curriculum |
| Tx:8.65 | is to limit your mind and hurt yourself. Health is therefore | nothing more than united purpose. If the body is brought under the |
| Tx:8.76 | sense out of meaningless data. Any way you handle them results in | nothing. The more complicated the results become, the harder it may |
| Tx:8.85 | heal. But to make mindless is impossible since it would mean to make | nothing out of what God created. The ego despises weakness, even |
| Tx:8.88 | cannot do. Given this, and given this quite literally, there can be | nothing which prevents you from doing exactly what I ask, and |
| Tx:8.96 | is your salvation because it is the same as God's. The separation is | nothing more than the belief that it is different. |
| Tx:8.100 | the Holy Spirit for what would hurt you, He cannot answer, because | nothing can hurt you and so you are asking for nothing. Any desire |
| Tx:8.100 | answer, because nothing can hurt you and so you are asking for | nothing. Any desire which stems from the ego is a desire for nothing |
| Tx:8.100 | for nothing. Any desire which stems from the ego is a desire for | nothing and to ask for it is not a request. It is merely a denial in |
| Tx:8.103 | do not want it, it was never created. If it was never created, it is | nothing. Can you really devote yourself to nothing? |
| Tx:8.103 | was never created, it is nothing. Can you really devote yourself to | nothing? |
| Tx:8.105 | Remember, then, that God's Will is already possible and | nothing else will ever be. This is the simple acceptance of reality, |
| Tx:8.118 | be asking of Him and how much you will receive. He will deny you | nothing because you have denied Him nothing, and so you can share |
| Tx:8.118 | will receive. He will deny you nothing because you have denied Him | nothing, and so you can share everything. This is the way, and the |
| Tx:9.3 | Since He does not understand it, He does not judge it, knowing that | nothing it engenders means anything. |
| Tx:9.24 | verbal accounts, no one can explain what happens in psychotherapy. | Nothing real does. Nothing real has happened to the unhealed healer, |
| Tx:9.24 | no one can explain what happens in psychotherapy. Nothing real does. | Nothing real has happened to the unhealed healer, and he learns from |
| Tx:9.26 | Healing is not mysterious. | Nothing will occur unless you understand it, since light is |
| Tx:9.29 | is a sound, though insufficient, statement. Only the good can work. | Nothing else works at all. This course is a guide to behavior. Being |
| Tx:9.37 | without your creations. Accept your brother in this world and accept | nothing else, for in him you will find your creations, because he |
| Tx:9.44 | merely because He knows its foundation is not true. Therefore, | nothing that arises from it means anything. The Holy Spirit judges |
| Tx:9.47 | and you will not hear it. The truth about you is so lofty that | nothing unworthy of God is worthy of you. Choose, then, what you want |
| Tx:9.47 | worthy of you. Choose, then, what you want in these terms and accept | nothing that you would not offer to God as wholly fitting for Him, |
| Tx:9.58 | be God's. You did not establish your value, and it needs no defense. | Nothing can attack it or prevail over it. It does not vary. It merely |
| Tx:9.59 | Nothing beyond yourself can make you fearful or loving, because | |
| Tx:9.59 | Nothing beyond yourself can make you fearful or loving, because | nothing is beyond you. Time and eternity are both in your mind and |
| Tx:9.59 | You must learn that time is solely at your disposal, and that | nothing in the world can take this responsibility from you. You can |
| Tx:9.60 | God created | nothing beside you, and nothing beside you exists, for you are part |
| Tx:9.60 | God created nothing beside you, and | nothing beside you exists, for you are part of Him. What except Him |
| Tx:9.60 | you exists, for you are part of Him. What except Him can exist? | Nothing beyond Him can happen, because nothing except Him is real. |
| Tx:9.60 | What except Him can exist? Nothing beyond Him can happen, because | nothing except Him is real. Your creations add to Him as you do, but |
| Tx:9.60 | nothing except Him is real. Your creations add to Him as you do, but | nothing is added that is different, because everything has always |
| Tx:9.61 | exceed the love of God? Can anything, then, exceed your will? | Nothing can reach you from beyond it because, being in God, you |
| Tx:9.68 | it. Knowledge therefore precedes dissociation, and dissociation is | nothing more than a decision to forget. What has been forgotten then |
| Tx:9.69 | you are willing to remember Him and know your own reality again. Let | nothing in this world delay your remembering of Him, for in this |
| Tx:9.70 | in exchange for yours is the exchange of knowledge for perception. | Nothing is beyond His Will for you. But signify your will to remember |
| Tx:9.74 | image, although those who make idols do worship them. The idols are | nothing, but their worshipers are the Sons of God in sickness. |
| Tx:9.81 | to replace God. Yet when they seem to speak to you, remember that | nothing can replace God, and whatever replacements you have attempted |
| Tx:9.81 | can replace God, and whatever replacements you have attempted are | nothing. |
| Tx:9.82 | believe you are afraid of nothingness, but you are really afraid of | nothing. And in that awareness you are healed. You will hear the god |
| Tx:9.83 | you. Honor is not due to illusions, for to honor them is to honor | nothing. Yet fear is not due them either, for nothing cannot be |
| Tx:9.83 | honor them is to honor nothing. Yet fear is not due them either, for | nothing cannot be fearful. You have chosen to fear love because of |
| Tx:9.84 | which god is real. Although it is perfectly clear that this has | nothing to do with reality, it is equally clear that it has |
| Tx:9.89 | them with chaos and accepting it of them. All this has never been. | Nothing but the laws of God has ever operated, and nothing except His |
| Tx:9.89 | has never been. Nothing but the laws of God has ever operated, and | nothing except His Will will ever be. You were created through His |
| Tx:9.89 | hardly want it if you were willing to see it as it is. You will see | nothing at all. And your vision will automatically look beyond it to |
| Tx:9.90 | truth at all. Peace is yours because God created you. And He created | nothing else. |
| Tx:9.96 | Who alone is his help. We said before that of yourselves you can do | nothing, but you are not of yourselves. If you were, what you have |
| Tx:9.97 | is because you did not make yourselves that you need be troubled by | nothing. Your gods are nothing, because your Father did not create |
| Tx:9.97 | make yourselves that you need be troubled by nothing. Your gods are | nothing, because your Father did not create them. You cannot make |
| Tx:10.1 | irreconcilable natures cannot be reconciled by your vacillations. | Nothing alive is fatherless, for life is creation. Therefore, your |
| Tx:10.2 | made out of the wish of God's Son to father Him. The ego, then, is | nothing more than a delusional system in which you made your own |
| Tx:10.3 | and that everything of which you have been afraid was based on | nothing. |
| Tx:10.7 | not be unified. Is this conceivable? Can part of His Mind contain | nothing? If your place in His Mind cannot be filled by anyone except |
| Tx:10.15 | it upon you. Always remember that what He gives, He holds, so that | nothing He gives can contradict Him. You who share His Life must |
| Tx:10.21 | with His gift. Invite this knowledge back into your minds, and let | nothing that will obscure it enter. The Guest whom God sent you will |
| Tx:10.22 | although He cannot help you without your invitation, and the ego is | nothing whether you invite it in or not. Real freedom depends on |
| Tx:10.26 | it is very different. Yours is the way of pain, of which God knows | nothing. That way is hard indeed and very lonely. Fear and grief are |
| Tx:10.27 | God hides | nothing from His Son, even though His Son would hide himself. Yet the |
| Tx:10.36 | it cannot be shut, and I live forever. God is my life and yours, and | nothing is denied by God to His Son. |
| Tx:10.40 | does not exist. Laws do not operate in a vacuum, and what leads to | nothing has not happened. If reality is recognized by its extension, |
| Tx:10.40 | happened. If reality is recognized by its extension, what extends to | nothing cannot be real. |
| Tx:10.43 | that any effort exerted on its behalf is necessarily expended on | nothing. The ego's goal is quite explicitly ego autonomy. From the |
| Tx:10.46 | behalf of separation. Believing it has the power to do this, it does | nothing else because its goal of autonomy is nothing else. The ego is |
| Tx:10.46 | to do this, it does nothing else because its goal of autonomy is | nothing else. The ego is totally confused about reality, but it does |
| Tx:10.57 | you remember the Father? Accept His Son, and you will remember Him. | Nothing can demonstrate that His Son is unworthy, for nothing can |
| Tx:10.57 | remember Him. Nothing can demonstrate that His Son is unworthy, for | nothing can prove that a lie is true. What you see of His Son through |
| Tx:10.57 | God's Son, and in the Presence of Christ they need demonstrate | nothing, for Christ speaks to them of Himself and of His Father. They |
| Tx:10.63 | is born of sacrifice and pain. The God of the resurrection demands | nothing, for He does not will to take away. He does not require |
| Tx:10.68 | their oneness. The whole power of God is in every part of Him, and | nothing contradictory to His Will is either great or small. What does |
| Tx:10.70 | be perceived. All that is necessary is a willingness to perceive | nothing else. For if you perceive both good and evil, you are |
| Tx:10.74 | Perhaps you do not feel that a course which, in the end, teaches | nothing more than that only reality is true is necessary. But do you |
| Tx:10.76 | Instruction in perception is your great need, for you understand | nothing. Recognize this but do not accept it, for understanding is |
| Tx:10.80 | a course in the play of ideas, but in their practical application. | Nothing could be more specific than to be told very clearly that if |
| Tx:10.80 | think it will demand of you. Yet only by asking will you learn that | nothing that is of God demands anything of you. God gives; He does |
| Tx:10.81 | The Holy Spirit will give you only what is yours and will take | nothing in return. For what is yours is everything, and you share it |
| Tx:10.82 | the asking. Do not deny it to yourself, for it can only free you. | Nothing of God will enslave His Son, whom He created free and whose |
| Tx:10.83 | the truth is in me, for I know that it is in you. God's Sons have | nothing which they do not share. Ask for truth of any Son of God, and |
| Tx:10.85 | this Help by asking for it, you will give it because you want it. | Nothing will be beyond your healing power because nothing will be |
| Tx:10.85 | you want it. Nothing will be beyond your healing power because | nothing will be denied your simple request. What problems will not |
| Tx:11.4 | of it. This is poor reality testing by definition. There is | nothing to prevent you from recognizing all calls for help as exactly |
| Tx:11.19 | must be yours. Do not let your hatred stand in the way of love, for | nothing can withstand the love of Christ for His Father or His |
| Tx:11.27 | It is only you, therefore, who have made the request outrageous, for | nothing can be asked of you, and every request of a brother is for |
| Tx:11.27 | be made of one who recognizes what is valuable and wants to accept | nothing else. |
| Tx:11.44 | have attacked yourself, and very brutally, you will demonstrate that | nothing happened. Therefore, by attacking you have not done anything. |
| Tx:11.52 | else will be given you. For it is your will to learn aright, and | nothing can oppose the Will of God's Son. His learning is as |
| Tx:11.53 | Soul and there is no gain in the world, for of itself it profits | nothing. To invest in something without profit is surely to |
| Tx:11.53 | costs you the world's reality by denying yours and gives you | nothing in return. You cannot sell your Soul, but you can sell your |
| Tx:11.54 | The Holy Spirit is your strength because He perceives | nothing but your Soul as you. He is perfectly aware that you do not |
| Tx:11.69 | When you want only love you will see | nothing else. The contradictory nature of the witnesses you perceive |
| Tx:11.78 | fear. His Father's love holds him in perfect peace, and needing | nothing, he asks for nothing. Yet he is far from you whose Self he |
| Tx:11.78 | love holds him in perfect peace, and needing nothing, he asks for | nothing. Yet he is far from you whose Self he is, for you chose to |
| Tx:11.81 | of it and rejoice that it is not so. Son of God, be not content with | nothing! What is not real cannot be seen and has no value. God could |
| Tx:11.82 | made the invisible the only truth that this world holds. Valuing | nothing, you have sought nothing and found nothing. By making nothing |
| Tx:11.82 | only truth that this world holds. Valuing nothing, you have sought | nothing and found nothing. By making nothing real to you, you have |
| Tx:11.82 | this world holds. Valuing nothing, you have sought nothing and found | nothing. By making nothing real to you, you have seen it. But it is |
| Tx:11.82 | nothing, you have sought nothing and found nothing. By making | nothing real to you, you have seen it. But it is not there. And |
| Tx:11.82 | his vision is shared. The Holy Spirit looks upon him and sees | nothing else in you. What is invisible to you is perfect in His sight |
| Tx:12.3 | lies hidden there, for the ego's destructive urge is so intense that | nothing short of the crucifixion of God's Son can ultimately satisfy |
| Tx:12.9 | Little children, this is not so. Your “guilty secret” is | nothing, and if you will but bring it to the light, the light will |
| Tx:12.12 | Your fear of attack is | nothing compared to your fear of love. You would be willing to look |
| Tx:12.21 | In peace he needed | nothing and asked for nothing. In war he demanded everything and |
| Tx:12.21 | In peace he needed nothing and asked for | nothing. In war he demanded everything and found nothing. For how |
| Tx:12.21 | and asked for nothing. In war he demanded everything and found | nothing. For how could the gentleness of love respond to his demands |
| Tx:12.32 | future. And time will be as you interpret it, for of itself it is | nothing. |
| Tx:12.55 | you from the world and follow it. For this light will attract you as | nothing in this world can do. And you will lay aside the world and |
| Tx:12.59 | it. There is no day that brightens and grows dim. There is no loss. | Nothing is there but shines, and shines forever. |
| Tx:12.61 | no city that you built has withstood the crumbling assault of time. | Nothing you made but has the mark of death upon it. Hold it not dear, |
| Tx:12.65 | It is God's Will that | nothing touch His Son except Himself, and nothing else comes nigh |
| Tx:12.65 | It is God's Will that nothing touch His Son except Himself, and | nothing else comes nigh unto him. He is as safe from pain as God |
| Tx:12.67 | Yet the dreams of love lead unto knowledge. In them you see | nothing fearful, and because of this, they are the welcome that you |
| Tx:12.68 | Your Father knoweth that you have need of | nothing. In Heaven this is so, for what could you need in eternity? |
| Tx:12.69 | For although the ego urges you again and again to get, it leaves you | nothing, for what you get, it will demand of you. And even from the |
| Tx:12.70 | and will renew them as long as you have need of them. He will take | nothing from you as long as you have any need of it. And yet He knows |
| Tx:12.71 | his inheritance. Within himself he has no needs, for light needs | nothing but to shine in peace and from itself to let the rays extend |
| Tx:13.2 | and knowledge becomes quite apparent if you consider this: There is | nothing partial about knowledge. Every aspect is whole, and therefore |
| Tx:13.13 | The world can give you only what you gave it, for being | nothing but your own projection, it has no meaning apart from what |
| Tx:13.15 | one is faith in the other, calling for punishment instead of love. | Nothing can justify insanity, and to call for punishment upon |
| Tx:13.28 | The altar to your Father is as pure as He Who raised it to Himself. | Nothing can keep from you what Christ would have you see. His Will is |
| Tx:13.36 | made not freedom, so you made not a war that could endanger freedom. | Nothing destructive ever was or will be. The war, the guilt, the past |
| Tx:13.37 | When we are all united in Heaven, you will value | nothing that you value here. For nothing that you value here you |
| Tx:13.37 | united in Heaven, you will value nothing that you value here. For | nothing that you value here you value wholly, and so you do not value |
| Tx:13.37 | is not to know its value. In Heaven is everything God valued and | nothing else. Heaven is perfectly unambiguous. Everything is clear |
| Tx:13.38 | Nothing in this world can give this peace, for nothing in this world | |
| Tx:13.38 | Nothing in this world can give this peace, for | nothing in this world is wholly shared. Perfect perception can merely |
| Tx:13.39 | Son has laid upon himself. It is impossible that this mission fail. | Nothing can prevent what God would have accomplished from |
| Tx:13.40 | in what your Father has given Him to do. The Will of God can fail in | nothing. |
| Tx:13.41 | thing, and it will be sufficient: God wills you be in Heaven, and | nothing can keep you from it or it from you. Your wildest |
| Tx:13.41 | your weird imaginings, your blackest nightmares all mean | nothing. They will not prevail against the peace God wills for you. |
| Tx:13.43 | God willed you Heaven and will always will you | nothing else. The Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. There is no |
| Tx:13.49 | decision not to know. The logic of the world must therefore lead to | nothing, for its goal is nothing. |
| Tx:13.49 | logic of the world must therefore lead to nothing, for its goal is | nothing. |
| Tx:13.50 | If you decide to have and give and be | nothing except a dream, you must direct your thoughts unto oblivion. |
| Tx:13.51 | given up by him, for the Source of their undoing is in him. There is | nothing in the world to teach him that the logic of the world is |
| Tx:13.51 | teach him that the logic of the world is totally insane and leads to | nothing. Yet in him who made this insane logic, there is One Who |
| Tx:13.51 | him who made this insane logic, there is One Who knows it leads to | nothing, for He knows everything. |
| Tx:13.53 | become so twisted and so complex that you cannot see that it means | nothing. He merely looks at its foundation and dismisses it. But you, |
| Tx:13.54 | on which this most peculiar learning goal depends means absolutely | nothing. It does make sense to you. |
| Tx:13.55 | Have faith in | nothing, and you will find the “treasure” that you sought. Yet you |
| Tx:13.55 | burdened or you would not have sought another. You will believe that | nothing is of value and will value it. A little piece of glass, a |
| Tx:13.55 | a body or a war are one to you. For if you value one thing made of | nothing, you have believed that nothing can be precious and that you |
| Tx:13.55 | For if you value one thing made of nothing, you have believed that | nothing can be precious and that you can learn how to make the untrue |
| Tx:13.56 | for twisted minds. Consider all the distortions you have made of | nothing—all the strange forms and feelings and actions and |
| Tx:13.56 | feelings and actions and reactions that you have woven out of it. | Nothing is so alien to you as the simple truth, and nothing are you |
| Tx:13.56 | woven out of it. Nothing is so alien to you as the simple truth, and | nothing are you less inclined to listen to. The contrast between what |
| Tx:13.57 | are not apparent to those who would make palaces and royal robes of | nothing, believing they are kings with golden crowns because of them. |
| Tx:13.57 | is not true. To these unhappy learners who would teach themselves | nothing and delude themselves into believing that it is not nothing, |
| Tx:13.57 | nothing and delude themselves into believing that it is not | nothing, the Holy Spirit says, with steadfast quietness: |
| Tx:13.58 | The truth is true. | Nothing else matters, nothing else is real, and everything beside it |
| Tx:13.58 | The truth is true. Nothing else matters, | nothing else is real, and everything beside it is not there. Let Me |
| Tx:13.58 | for you which you cannot make but need to learn. Your faith in | nothing is deceiving you. Offer your faith to Me, and I will place it |
| Tx:13.59 | which this light brings to them because it teaches them release from | nothing and from all the works of nothing. The heavy chains which |
| Tx:13.59 | it teaches them release from nothing and from all the works of | nothing. The heavy chains which seem to bind them unto despair they |
| Tx:13.59 | heavy chains which seem to bind them unto despair they do not see as | nothing until you bring the light to them. And then they see the |
| Tx:13.59 | they see the chains have disappeared, and so they must have been | nothing. And you will see it with them. Because you taught them |
| Tx:13.60 | Learn to be happy learners. You will never learn how to make | nothing everything. Yet see that this has been your goal and |
| Tx:13.60 | simple honesty, it is undone. We said before, “Be not content with | nothing,” for you have believed that nothing could content you. It is |
| Tx:13.60 | before, “Be not content with nothing,” for you have believed that | nothing could content you. It is not so. |
| Tx:13.62 | dark door which you believe is locked forever. You made this door of | nothing and behind it is nothing. The key is only the light which |
| Tx:13.62 | is locked forever. You made this door of nothing and behind it is | nothing. The key is only the light which shines away the shapes and |
| Tx:13.62 | only the light which shines away the shapes and forms and fears of | nothing. Accept this key to freedom from the hands of Christ Who |
| Tx:13.63 | will realize it is impossible to deny the simple truth. For there is | nothing else. God is everywhere, and His Son is in Him with |
| Tx:13.67 | What I experience, I will make manifest. If I am guiltless, I have | nothing to fear. I choose to testify to my acceptance of the |
| Tx:13.70 | to free his brother and enter light with him. By giving power to | nothing, he threw away the joyous opportunity to learn that nothing |
| Tx:13.70 | power to nothing, he threw away the joyous opportunity to learn that | nothing has no power. And by not dispelling darkness, he became |
| Tx:13.71 | belief that you can be harmed shows him he is guiltless. He can do | nothing that can hurt you, and by refusing to allow him to think he |
| Tx:13.71 | which you have accepted for yourself, is also his. There is | nothing to forgive. No one can hurt the Son of God. His guilt is |
| Tx:13.72 | of God as yours. The power that God has given to His Son is his, and | nothing else can His Son see or choose to look upon without imposing |
| Tx:13.74 | need, coming as naturally as peace that knows no limits. There is | nothing their wills will not provide that offers them anything of |
| Tx:13.76 | of yourself in place of His calm and unswerving value of His Son? | Nothing can shake God's conviction of the perfect purity of |
| Tx:13.86 | even as God gave it first to His Son. The first in time means | nothing, but the First in eternity is God the Father, Who is both |
| Tx:13.86 | there is no other, for there is no order, no second or third and | nothing but the First. |
| Tx:14.2 | in your experience of the world to help you understand it. There is | nothing on earth with which it can compare and nothing you have ever |
| Tx:14.2 | it. There is nothing on earth with which it can compare and | nothing you have ever felt, apart from Him, that resembles it ever so |
| Tx:14.2 | gentleness. Would you know of One Who gives forever and Who knows of | nothing except giving? |
| Tx:14.3 | is yours. If you remember what you have made, you are remembering | nothing. Remembrance of reality is in Him and therefore in you. |
| Tx:14.4 | with the Mind of God has never been. Communication with God is life. | Nothing without it is at all. |
| Tx:14.5 | the world of death behind, and return quietly to Heaven. There is | nothing of value here and everything of value there. Listen to the |
| Tx:14.6 | you share with God He holds in trust for you. He would teach you | nothing except how to be happy. |
| Tx:14.7 | was created for you. Who can condemn whom God has blessed? There is | nothing in the Mind of God that does not share His shining innocence. |
| Tx:14.8 | from his own sight. We are all joined in the Atonement here, and | nothing else can unite us in this world. So will the world of |
| Tx:14.16 | is the exchange of dark for light, of ignorance for understanding. | Nothing you understand is fearful. It is only in darkness and in |
| Tx:14.16 | you did, it would be clear, and you would be no longer in the dark. | Nothing has hidden value, for what is hidden cannot be shared, and so |
| Tx:14.17 | Holy Spirit dwells within you is merely perfect openness in which | nothing is hidden and therefore nothing is fearful. Attack will |
| Tx:14.17 | is merely perfect openness in which nothing is hidden and therefore | nothing is fearful. Attack will always yield to love if it is brought |
| Tx:14.17 | it carefully, and you who made these guardians of illusion out of | nothing are now afraid of them. |
| Tx:14.18 | nor unsafe. They do not protect; neither do they attack. They do | nothing at all, being nothing at all. As guardians of darkness and of |
| Tx:14.18 | not protect; neither do they attack. They do nothing at all, being | nothing at all. As guardians of darkness and of ignorance, look to |
| Tx:14.20 | much in your mind that lets you think you are. All this, and | nothing else, would He separate from you. The power of decision, |
| Tx:14.22 | at once, and this must lead to unintelligibility. Yet if one means | nothing and the other everything, only that one is possible for |
| Tx:14.23 | not fearful and cannot serve to guard the dark doors behind which | nothing at all is carefully concealed. We must open all doors and let |
| Tx:14.31 | you how to recognize what you see. It is the recognition that | nothing you see means anything alone. Seeing with Him will show you |
| Tx:14.32 | of innocence. Behind the dark doors which you have closed lies | nothing, because nothing can obscure the gift of God. It is the |
| Tx:14.32 | Behind the dark doors which you have closed lies nothing, because | nothing can obscure the gift of God. It is the closing of the doors |
| Tx:14.33 | your Father and His Son. No altar stands to God without His Son. And | nothing brought there that is not equally worthy of both but will be |
| Tx:14.35 | and His Son's belong to you in truth. They have no opposite, and | nothing else can you bestow upon yourselves. |
| Tx:14.36 | you nowhere else. Where God is, there are you. Such is the truth. | Nothing can change the knowledge given you by God into unknowingness. |
| Tx:14.37 | of God for you. Lay no gifts other than this upon your altars, for | nothing can coexist beside it. Here your meager offerings are brought |
| Tx:14.40 | You are not frail with God beside you. Yet without Him you are | nothing. The Atonement offers you God. The gift which you refused is |
| Tx:14.52 | either to recognize love or to believe that everything else is | nothing but a need for love. You are too bound to form and not to |
| Tx:14.52 | you consider content is not content at all. It is merely form, and | nothing else. For you do not respond to what a brother really offers |
| Tx:14.53 | of the dynamics of the mind, let me assure you that you know | nothing of it at all. For of yourselves you could not know of it. The |
| Tx:14.56 | Him is perfectly open and freely accessible to all, being for all. | Nothing lives in secret, and what you would hide from the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:14.56 | lives in secret, and what you would hide from the Holy Spirit is | nothing. Every interpretation you would lay upon a brother is |
| Tx:14.60 | it holds for you. Your learning gives the present no meaning at all. | Nothing you have ever learned can help you understand the present or |
| Tx:14.61 | think you see the darkness. Yet darkness cannot be seen, for it is | nothing more than a condition in which seeing becomes impossible. You |
| Tx:14.72 | Those who remember always that they know | nothing, but who have become willing to learn everything, will learn |
| Tx:14.73 | really learn at all. And for this, it must be peace they want and | nothing else. Whenever you think you know, peace will depart from you |
| Tx:14.75 | room for Him, and you will find yourself so filled with power that | nothing will prevail against your peace. And this will be the test by |
| Tx:15.1 | all the time? Yet that is what time is for—to learn just that and | nothing more. God's Teacher cannot be satisfied with His teaching |
| Tx:15.8 | in the ego's use of time. For time, according to its teaching, is | nothing but a teaching device for compounding guilt until it becomes |
| Tx:15.9 | forever. It is so beautiful and so clean and free of guilt that | nothing but happiness is there. No darkness is remembered, and |
| Tx:15.10 | this very instant, now, and think of it as all there is of time. | Nothing can reach you here out of the past, and it is here that you |
| Tx:15.32 | constant and at peace forever with Itself. You will be content with | nothing but His Will. Accept no less, remembering that everything I |
| Tx:15.32 | offer to yourselves, for you will know you are complete, in need of | nothing, and unable to accept anything for yourself. But you will |
| Tx:15.36 | salvation in exchange for God's. His will content you, and there is | nothing else that can bring you peace. For peace is of God and of no |
| Tx:15.39 | is simple is that truth is simple. Complexity is of the ego and is | nothing more than the ego's attempt to obscure the obvious. |
| Tx:15.40 | that all minds are in communication. It therefore seeks to change | nothing, but merely to accept everything. |
| Tx:15.44 | to acknowledge that you are host to God and hostage to no one and | nothing. |
| Tx:15.51 | your seeking a picture whose likeness does not exist. For there is | nothing in Heaven or earth that it resembles, and so however much you |
| Tx:15.53 | God knows you now. He remembers | nothing, having always known you exactly as He knows you now. The |
| Tx:15.62 | In the holy instant, | nothing happens that has not always been. Only the veil that has been |
| Tx:15.62 | been. Only the veil that has been drawn across reality is lifted. | Nothing has changed. Yet the awareness of changelessness comes |
| Tx:15.63 | conditions are in the mind with it. If you were not only an idea and | nothing else, you could not be in full communication with all that |
| Tx:15.63 | as long as you prefer to be something else, or would attempt to be | nothing else and something else together, the language of |
| Tx:15.65 | love that is fully given and fully returned. Being complete, it asks | nothing. Being wholly pure, everyone joined in it has everything. |
| Tx:15.67 | your only question will be why it was you ever wanted it. You have | nothing to lose by looking open-eyed at this, for ugliness such as |
| Tx:15.74 | and what brings guilt cannot be love and must be anger. All anger is | nothing more than an attempt to make someone feel guilty, and this |
| Tx:15.79 | that in complete forgiveness, in which you recognize that there is | nothing to forgive, you are absolved completely. |
| Tx:15.81 | He comes from One Who cannot fail. Accept your sense of failure as | nothing more than a mistake in who you are. For the holy host of God |
| Tx:15.81 | in who you are. For the holy host of God is beyond failure, and | nothing that he wills can be denied. You are forever in a |
| Tx:15.82 | as He withheld Himself not from you, He withheld not His creation. | Nothing that ever was created but is yours. Your relationships are |
| Tx:15.86 | of the ego, as the ego is the symbol of the separation. And both are | nothing more than attempts to limit communication and thereby to make |
| Tx:15.93 | of yourself, you ask of me. Learn now that sacrifice of any kind is | nothing but a limitation imposed on giving. And by this limitation, |
| Tx:15.95 | it is always the same idea. What is not love is always fear and | nothing else. It is not necessary to follow fear through all the |
| Tx:15.96 | alternatives, for you cannot accept the fact that sacrifice gets | nothing. Sacrifice is so essential to your thought system that |
| Tx:15.96 | to your thought system that salvation apart from sacrifice means | nothing to you. Your confusion of sacrifice and love is so profound |
| Tx:15.100 | hostage to the ego, for it keeps no bargains and would leave you | nothing. [Nor can you be partial host to it.] You will have to choose |
| Tx:15.101 | together and perceived where they are, the choice between them is | nothing more than a gentle awakening and as simple as opening your |
| Tx:15.102 | it as the sign the time of Christ has come. He comes demanding | nothing. No sacrifice of any kind of anyone is asked by Him. In His |
| Tx:15.103 | celebrate our release together by releasing everyone with us. Leave | nothing behind, for release is total, and when you have accepted it |
| Tx:15.107 | lesson, you will realize that to sacrifice the body is to sacrifice | nothing, and communication, which must be of the mind, cannot be |
| Tx:15.108 | you. What can be more joyous than to perceive we are deprived of | nothing? Such is the message of the time of Christ, which I give you |
| Tx:15.110 | I have perfect faith in you to do all that you would accomplish. | Nothing will be lacking, and you will make complete and not destroy. |
| Tx:16.3 | is. All you have learned of empathy is from the past. And there is | nothing from the past that you would share, for there is nothing |
| Tx:16.3 | there is nothing from the past that you would share, for there is | nothing there that you would keep. Do not use empathy to make the |
| Tx:16.4 | past upon my Guest. I have invited Him, and He is here. I need do | nothing except not to interfere. |
| Tx:16.21 | so from the basis of a very different thought system and one with | nothing in common with yours. For certainly what He has taught, and |
| Tx:16.21 | what He has taught, and what you have taught through Him, have | nothing in common with what you taught before He came. And the |
| Tx:16.25 | is their home. You who are host to God are also host to them. For | nothing real has ever left the mind of its creator. And what is not |
| Tx:16.26 | and whom He holds are the universe, all else must be outside, where | nothing is. You have taught this, and from far off in the universe, |
| Tx:16.27 | His Father does. His Kingdom has no limits and no end, and there is | nothing in Him that is not perfect and eternal. All this is you, and |
| Tx:16.27 | nothing in Him that is not perfect and eternal. All this is you, and | nothing outside of this is you. |
| Tx:16.36 | is an attempt [to bring love into separation. And, as such, it is | nothing more than an attempt] to bring love into fear and make it |
| Tx:16.38 | is your completion, for you will be wholly in God, willing for | nothing special but only to be wholly like unto Him, completing Him |
| Tx:16.38 | forever. Seek not for this in the bleak world of illusion, where | nothing is certain, and where everything fails to satisfy. In the |
| Tx:16.41 | it. Turn with me firmly away from all illusions now, and let | nothing stand in the way of truth. We will take the last foolish |
| Tx:16.42 | creation. On this side of the bridge to timelessness you understand | nothing. But as you step lightly across it, upheld by timelessness, |
| Tx:16.47 | over God. In this it sees the ultimate freedom of the self, for | nothing would remain to interfere with it. This is its idea of |
| Tx:16.49 | prefer. And he feels guilty for the “sin” of taking and of giving | nothing of value in return. For how much value can he place upon a |
| Tx:16.50 | with Heaven. Yet if all illusions are of fear, and they can be of | nothing else, the illusion of Heaven is nothing more than an |
| Tx:16.50 | of fear, and they can be of nothing else, the illusion of Heaven is | nothing more than an “attractive” form of fear in which the guilt is |
| Tx:16.55 | have any influence at all upon it. See in the special relationship | nothing more than a meaningless attempt to raise other gods before |
| Tx:16.56 | have no difficulty in perceiving the decision as just what it is and | nothing more. |
| Tx:16.58 | simply because you will recognize that God is on the other side and | nothing at all is here. It is impossible not to make the natural |
| Tx:16.62 | is left outside than would be taken in. For God is left without and | nothing taken in. If one such union were made in perfect faith, the |
| Tx:16.62 | For the ego wants but part of him and sees only this part and | nothing else. |
| Tx:16.64 | The bridge itself is | nothing more than a transition in your perspective of reality. On |
| Tx:16.64 | actual disorientation seems to occur. But fear it not, for it means | nothing more than that you have been willing to let go your hold on |
| Tx:16.66 | Nothing you seek to strengthen in the special relationship is really | |
| Tx:16.67 | and learn how much awaits you for the simple willingness to give up | nothing because it is nothing. |
| Tx:16.67 | you for the simple willingness to give up nothing because it is | nothing. |
| Tx:16.68 | you will think in glad astonishment that for all this you gave up | nothing! The joy of Heaven, which has no limit, is increased with |
| Tx:16.71 | it what it is. It has no meaning in the present, and if it means | nothing now, it cannot have any real meaning at all. How can you |
| Tx:16.71 | can give you what you think the past deprived you of? The past is | nothing. Do not seek to lay the blame for deprivation on it, for the |
| Tx:16.78 | There is | nothing you can hold against reality. All that must be forgiven are |
| Tx:16.78 | reality has no past, and only illusions can be forgiven. God holds | nothing against anyone, for He is incapable of illusions of any kind. |
| Tx:16.80 | they perceived as great or small, possible or impossible. There is | nothing that will not give place to Him and to His majesty. To join |
| Tx:16.80 | no other. The truth lies here and nowhere else. You choose this or | nothing. |
| Tx:17.7 | look to you? In no fantasy have you ever seen anything so lovely. | Nothing you see here, sleeping or waking, comes near to such |
| Tx:17.7 | you see here, sleeping or waking, comes near to such loveliness. And | nothing will you value like unto this nor hold so dear. Nothing that |
| Tx:17.7 | And nothing will you value like unto this nor hold so dear. | Nothing that you remember that made your heart seem to sing with joy |
| Tx:17.8 | and clean and new with everything sparkling under the open sun. | Nothing is hidden here, for everything has been forgiven, and there |
| Tx:17.9 | you learn to reach. Fantasies are all undone, and no one and | nothing remains still bound by them, and by your own forgiveness, you |
| Tx:17.10 | everything that has been used for learning will have no function. | Nothing will ever change; no shifts nor shadings, no differences, no |
| Tx:17.18 | have not been made at all. Where no reality has entered, there is | nothing to intrude upon the dream of happiness. Yet consider what |
| Tx:17.27 | God established His relationship with you to make you happy, and | nothing you do which does not share His purpose can be real. The |
| Tx:17.27 | the function of relationships became forever “to make happy.” And | nothing else. To fulfill this function, you relate to your creations |
| Tx:17.27 | this function, you relate to your creations as God to His. For | nothing God created is apart from happiness, and nothing God created |
| Tx:17.27 | as God to His. For nothing God created is apart from happiness, and | nothing God created but would extend happiness as its Creator did. |
| Tx:17.31 | as insane as what they are supposed to protect. The separation has | nothing in it, no part, no “reason,” and no attribute that is not |
| Tx:17.40 | recognize as what it is—a picture of what you thought was real and | nothing more. For beyond this picture, you will see nothing. |
| Tx:17.40 | was real and nothing more. For beyond this picture, you will see | nothing. |
| Tx:17.69 | call forth and accomplish every miracle needed for its fulfillment. | Nothing too small or too enormous, too weak or too compelling, but |
| Tx:17.71 | in every aspect and complete in every part. You can leave | nothing of yourself outside it and keep the situation holy. For it |
| Tx:17.74 | The holy instant is | nothing more than a special case or an extreme example of what every |
| Tx:17.75 | and bring you peace. Not even faith is asked of you, for truth asks | nothing. Let it enter, and it will call forth and secure for you the |
| Tx:17.77 | terror, cold fantasies of fear and fiery dreams of hell. And it was | nothing but the intolerable strain of refusing to give faith to truth |
| Tx:17.79 | and will not change, for you accepted what can never change. And | nothing that it needs to be forever changeless can you now withhold |
| Tx:18.2 | are perceived as different. One would unite; the other separate. | Nothing can come between what God has joined and what the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:18.5 | aspects are fearful enough, as you begin to look at them. But | nothing you have seen begins to show you the enormity of the original |
| Tx:18.7 | at all. None of them matters. That they have in common and | nothing else. Yet what else is necessary to make them all the same? |
| Tx:18.9 | course inward to the truth you share. In the mad world outside you, | nothing can be shared but only substituted, and sharing and |
| Tx:18.9 | be shared but only substituted, and sharing and substituting have | nothing in common in reality. Within yourselves you love each other |
| Tx:18.36 | who think that they must first atone, but only to those who offer it | nothing more than simple willingness to make way for it. Purification |
| Tx:18.37 | to me my own awareness of my readiness, which is eternal. I need add | nothing to His plan. But to receive it, I must be willing not to |
| Tx:18.39 | makes it what it is. Yet we have emphasized that you need understand | nothing. Salvation is easy just because it asks nothing that you |
| Tx:18.39 | you need understand nothing. Salvation is easy just because it asks | nothing that you cannot give right now. |
| Tx:18.45 | that He gave to your relationship by accepting it for you, and | nothing will be wanting that would make of it what He would have it |
| Tx:18.49 | There is | nothing outside you. That is what you must ultimately learn, for it |
| Tx:18.49 | an awareness of perfect Oneness and the knowledge that there is | nothing else; nothing outside this Oneness and nothing else within. |

| Tx:18.54 | out fantasies. For it is still the fantasies you want, and they have | nothing to do with what the body does. It does not dream of them, and |
| Tx:18.56 | It does not go out. Within itself it has no limits, and there is | nothing outside it. [It encompasses everything.] It encompasses you |

| Tx:18.67 | anyone, it always comes with just one happy realization: “I need do | nothing.” |
| Tx:18.68 | Save time for me by only this one preparation and practice, doing | nothing else. “I need do nothing” is a statement of allegiance, a |
| Tx:18.69 | To do anything involves the body. And if you recognize you need do | nothing, you have withdrawn the body's value from your mind. Here is |
| Tx:18.69 | now. For here is time denied and past and future gone. Who need do | nothing has no need for time. To do nothing is to rest and make a |
| Tx:18.69 | and future gone. Who need do nothing has no need for time. To do | nothing is to rest and make a place within you where the activity of |

| Tx:18.77 | this little fenced-off aspect as yourself. The sun and ocean are as | nothing beside what you are. The sunbeam sparkles only in the |
| Tx:18.77 | kingdom, a sorry king, a bitter ruler of all he surveys who looks on | nothing, yet who would still die to defend it? This little self is |

| Tx:18.94 | that God Himself can take the final step unhindered, for here does | nothing interfere with love, letting it be itself. A step beyond this |
| Tx:18.94 | you to something completely different. Here is the Source of light— | nothing perceived, forgiven, nor transformed, but merely known. |
| Tx:18.98 | has come to you in the holy place of forgiveness, you will remember | nothing else, and memory will be as useless as learning, for your |
| Tx:19.14 | through faith. And there it is that you will realize that there is | nothing faith cannot forgive. No error interferes with its calm |
| Tx:19.16 | the eternal you do to you. Whom God created as His Son is slave to | nothing, being lord of all along with his Creator. You can enslave a |
| Tx:19.19 | the power of his mind against himself. But he cannot sin. There is | nothing he can do that would really change his reality in any way nor |
| Tx:19.24 | Would you not rather that all this be | nothing more than a mistake, entirely correctable, and so easily |
| Tx:19.28 | Mistakes are for correction, and they call for | nothing else. What calls for punishment must call for nothing. Every |
| Tx:19.28 | they call for nothing else. What calls for punishment must call for | nothing. Every mistake must be a call for love. What, then, is sin? |
| Tx:19.38 | across the obstacles you placed before it. This will you do, for | nothing undertaken with the Holy Spirit remains unfinished. You can |
| Tx:19.38 | with the Holy Spirit remains unfinished. You can indeed be sure of | nothing you see outside you, but of this you can be sure: the Holy |

| Tx:19.48 | in gladness, not regret. For it is nothing in itself and stood for | nothing when you had greater faith in its protection. Would you not |
| Tx:19.64 | You have paid very dearly for your illusions, and | nothing you have paid for brought you peace. Are you not glad that |
| Tx:19.82 | your holy purpose. The body no more dies than it can feel. It does | nothing. Of itself, it is neither corruptible nor incorruptible. It |
| Tx:19.82 | Of itself, it is neither corruptible nor incorruptible. It is | nothing. It is the result of a tiny mad idea of corruption which can |

| Tx:19.95 | of your “friends,” your “protectors,” and your “home” will vanish. | Nothing that you remember now will you remember. |
| Tx:19.108 | not to be lost, but found; not to be seen, but known. And knowing, | nothing in the plan God has established for salvation will be left |
| Tx:20.11 | thorns, no strangers, and no obstacles to peace. The fear of God is | nothing to you now. Who is afraid to look upon illusions, knowing his |
| Tx:20.28 | Nothing can hurt you unless you give it the power to do so. For you | |
| Tx:20.31 | and they will give it only to what God has given to share with them. | Nothing but this can touch them, for they see only this, sharing |
| Tx:20.35 | His plan as the one function that you would fulfill, there will be | nothing else the Holy Spirit will not arrange for you without your |
| Tx:20.36 | in your way no stones to trip on and no obstacles to bar your way. | Nothing you need will be denied you. Not one seeming difficulty but |
| Tx:20.36 | but will melt away before you reach it. You need take thought for | nothing, careless of everything except the only purpose that you |
| Tx:20.41 | eternity that runs through time like golden light is all the same— | nothing before it, nothing afterwards. |
| Tx:20.41 | through time like golden light is all the same—nothing before it, | nothing afterwards. |
| Tx:20.42 | it ever held or will ever hold is here right now. The past takes | nothing from it, and the future will add no more. Here, then, is |
| Tx:20.45 | If it were elsewhere, it would rest upon contingency, but there is | nothing else. And this is wholly loving and forever. Yet has the Son |
| Tx:20.46 | Nothing can show the contrast better than the experience of both a | |
| Tx:20.46 | to be known, completely understood, and shared. It has no secrets; | nothing that it would keep apart and hide. It walks in sunlight, |
| Tx:20.49 | mystery, a meaningless enclosure carefully protected, yet hiding | nothing. Here the unholy relationship escapes reality and seeks for |
| Tx:20.51 | Idolaters will always be afraid of love, for | nothing so severely threatens them as love's approach. Let love draw |
| Tx:20.58 | as does His purpose. Being so simple and direct, this course has | nothing in it that is not consistent. The seeming inconsistencies or |
| Tx:20.58 | great discomfort. This need not be. This course requires almost | nothing of you. It is impossible to imagine one that asks so little |
| Tx:20.61 | is merely neutral. It is not sinful, but neither is it sinless. As | nothing, which it is, the body cannot meaningfully be invested with |
| Tx:20.75 | Only two purposes are possible. And one is sin, the other holiness. | Nothing is in between, and which you choose determines what you see. |
| Tx:20.75 | to sin and seems to witness to its reality. It still is true that | nothing is without. Yet upon nothing are all projections made. For it |
| Tx:20.75 | to its reality. It still is true that nothing is without. Yet upon | nothing are all projections made. For it is the projection which |
| Tx:21.1 | Projection makes perception. The world you see is what you gave it, | nothing more than that. But though it is no more than that, it is not |
| Tx:21.1 | meaningless. Everything looked upon with vision is healed and holy. | Nothing perceived without it means anything. And where there is no |
| Tx:21.6 | “see” in their imagination, believing that their choice is that or | nothing. They hate the world they learned through pain. And |
| Tx:21.9 | The notes are | nothing. Yet you have kept them with you, not for themselves, but as |
| Tx:21.9 | would lose the world you learned since then. And yet you know that | nothing in the world you learned is half so dear as this. Listen and |
| Tx:21.11 | this and not the body. You know the ancient song and know it well. | Nothing will ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn [of love] |
| Tx:21.17 | possible within the universe as God created it, outside of which is | nothing. Suffer, and you decided sin was your goal. Be happy, and you |
| Tx:21.25 | would deny. And so he seems to be the cause, producing real effects. | Nothing can have effects without a cause and to confuse the two is |
| Tx:21.26 | that you did not create yourself. They are the same mistake. | Nothing created not by your Creator has any influence over you. And |
| Tx:21.27 | has no power to create, and what he makes is meaningless. It changes | nothing in creation, depends entirely upon the madness of its maker, |
| Tx:21.30 | it. No one allows a purpose to be replaced while he desires it, for | nothing is so cherished and protected as is a goal the mind accepts. |
| Tx:21.33 | would have it be. Faithlessness is not a lack of faith, but faith in | nothing. Faith given to illusions does not lack power, for by it does |
| Tx:21.37 | accomplished. Brothers, the Holy Spirit knows that sacrifice brings | nothing. He makes no bargains. And if you seek to limit Him, you will |
| Tx:21.45 | and recognized him perfectly since time began. And it desired | nothing but to join with him and to be free again, as once it was. It |
| Tx:21.52 | lies in the other Self you have cut off from your awareness. And | nothing you have allowed to stay in it is capable of reason. How can |
| Tx:21.63 | can there be that stands between what is continuous? And if there is | nothing in between, how can what enters part be kept away from other |
| Tx:21.83 | changing, now this, now that, and now an elusive shadow attached to | nothing, he does decide against it. |
| Tx:21.87 | for it desires that everything be like itself and sees it so. | Nothing has power to confound its constancy because its own desire |
| Tx:21.90 | of your desire for what will never change. For you have asked that | nothing stand between the holiness of your relationship and your |
| Tx:22.2 | himself and rob the other. They stay until they think there's | nothing left to steal and then move on. And so they wander through a |
| Tx:22.3 | selves, for differences are only of the body. Therefore, he looks on | nothing he would take. He denies not his own reality, because it is |
| Tx:22.13 | Be certain God did not entrust His Son to the unworthy. | Nothing but what is part of Him is worthy of being joined. Nor is it |
| Tx:22.20 | was given to the Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom | nothing He wills can be impossible, the means for its attainment are |
| Tx:22.25 | on it with the decision that it must be healed and not with fear. | Nothing you made has any power over you unless you still would be |
| Tx:22.30 | to its fixed belief in sin and disregard of errors. It looks on | nothing that can be corrected. Thus does the ego damn and reason save. |
| Tx:22.33 | beyond the granite block of sin and stopping at the outside form of | nothing. To this distorted form of vision, the outside of everything, |
| Tx:22.33 | truly? It is held back by form, having been made to guarantee that | nothing else but form will be perceived. |
| Tx:22.34 | they stop at nothingness, unable to go beyond the form to meaning. | Nothing so blinding as perception of form. For sight of form means |
| Tx:22.39 | to uphold it cannot be undone. Your way is decided. There will be | nothing you will not be told if you acknowledge this. |
| Tx:22.45 | The opposition comes from them and not reality. Reality opposes | nothing. What merely is needs no defense and offers none. Only |
| Tx:22.46 | return. Yet how can peace be so fragmented? It is still whole, and | nothing has been taken from it. |
| Tx:22.47 | See how the means and the material of evil dreams are | nothing. In truth you stand together with nothing in between. God |
| Tx:22.47 | of evil dreams are nothing. In truth you stand together with | nothing in between. God holds your hands, and what can separate whom |
| Tx:22.50 | must be convinced, in spite of what you thought it was, that it is | nothing. If you forgive each other, this must happen. For it is your |
| Tx:22.54 | means for His own plan. Be thankful that it serves yours not at all. | Nothing entrusted to it can be misused, and nothing given it but will |
| Tx:22.54 | serves yours not at all. Nothing entrusted to it can be misused, and | nothing given it but will be used. This holy relationship has the |
| Tx:22.57 | other with complete forgiveness from which no error is excluded and | nothing kept hidden what mistake can there be anywhere you cannot |
| Tx:22.57 | a shadow through which you walk completely undismayed? God would let | nothing interfere with those whose wills are His[. And they will |
| Tx:23.1 | of frailty and weakness is sinlessness? Innocence is strength, and | nothing else is strong. The sinless cannot fear, for sin of any kind |
| Tx:23.3 | no evil. The innocent are safe because they share their innocence. | Nothing they see is harmful, for their awareness of the truth |
| Tx:23.6 | Nothing around you but is part of you. Look on it lovingly, and see | |
| Tx:23.9 | it. And yet illusions cannot join. They are the same, and they are | nothing. Their joining lies in nothingness; two are as meaningless as |
| Tx:23.9 | two are as meaningless as one or as a thousand. The ego joins with | nothing, being nothing. The victory it seeks is meaningless as is |
| Tx:23.9 | as one or as a thousand. The ego joins with nothing, being | nothing. The victory it seeks is meaningless as is itself. |
| Tx:23.13 | battle with another, yet the war of two illusions is a state where | nothing happens. There is no victor, and there is no victory. And |
| Tx:23.14 | forces. It cannot exist between one power and nothingness. There is | nothing you could attack that is not part of you. And by attacking |
| Tx:23.14 | is fearful, for it is the birth of fear. Yet what is born of | nothing cannot win reality through battle. Why would you fill your |
| Tx:23.17 | grows dim, the temple of the Holy One becomes a house of sin. And | nothing is remembered except illusions. Illusions can conflict |
| Tx:23.19 | Here are the laws that rule the world you made. And yet they govern | nothing and need not be broken; merely looked upon and gone beyond. |
| Tx:23.21 | to truth instead of to each other, they merely disappear. No part of | nothing can be more resistant to the truth than can another. |
| Tx:23.42 | An empty box, however beautiful and gently given, still contains | nothing. And neither the receiver nor the giver is long deceived. |
| Tx:23.42 | forgiveness from your brother, and you attack him. You give him | nothing and receive of him but what you gave. |
| Tx:23.43 | you want—to take a little and give up the rest. Salvation gives up | nothing. It is complete for everyone. Let the idea of compromise but |
| Tx:23.54 | their Father's purpose and who know that it is theirs! They want for | nothing. Sorrow of any kind is inconceivable. Only the light they |
| Tx:24.6 | What God created cannot be attacked, for there is | nothing in the universe unlike itself. But what is different calls |
| Tx:24.6 | call it “friend.” On its behalf they fight against the universe, for | nothing in the world they value more. |
| Tx:24.17 | was, nor hear what makes no sound. Is it a sacrifice to give up | nothing and to receive the love of God forever? |
| Tx:24.20 | in silent blessing and in peace so real and so encompassing that | nothing stands outside. Leave all illusions of yourself outside this |
| Tx:24.24 | enter and a hiding-place where none is welcome but your tiny self. | Nothing is sacred here but unto you and you alone, apart and separate |
| Tx:24.28 | in you. It can be thrown off balance by anything. What rests on | nothing never can be stable. However large and overblown it seems to |
| Tx:24.29 | Without foundation | nothing is secure. Would God have left His Son in such a state, where |
| Tx:24.29 | that walks and breathes or creeps or crawls or even lives at all. | Nothing is safe from its attack, and it is safe from nothing. It will |
| Tx:24.29 | lives at all. Nothing is safe from its attack, and it is safe from | nothing. It will forever more be unforgiving, for that is what it is |
| Tx:24.32 | to come forth and waken from their dream of death. Yet they hear | nothing. They are lost in dreams of specialness. They hate the call |
| Tx:24.35 | and body states must shift accordingly. Of itself the body can do | nothing. See it as means to hurt, and it is hurt. See it as means to |
| Tx:24.36 | limited; so must it be that harmful purpose hurts the mind as one. | Nothing could make less sense to specialness. Nothing could make more |
| Tx:24.36 | hurts the mind as one. Nothing could make less sense to specialness. | Nothing could make more sense to miracles. For miracles are merely |
| Tx:24.41 | a thread from here, a scrap from there, and wove a picture out of | nothing. For the parts do not belong together, and the whole |
| Tx:24.41 | For the parts do not belong together, and the whole contributes | nothing to the parts to give them meaning. |
| Tx:24.42 | him, showing him what can be seen and heard and where he will see | nothing and there is no sound to hear. |
| Tx:24.50 | For what God wills is whole and part of Him because His Will is One. | Nothing alive that is not part of Him, and nothing is but is alive in |
| Tx:24.50 | because His Will is One. Nothing alive that is not part of Him, and | nothing is but is alive in Him. Your brother's holiness shows you |
| Tx:24.51 | Nothing is lost to you in all the universe. Nothing that God created | |
| Tx:24.51 | Nothing is lost to you in all the universe. | Nothing that God created has He failed to lay before you lovingly as |
| Tx:24.59 | stands for you alone, as self-created, self-maintained, in need of | nothing, and unjoined with anything beyond the body. In its eyes, you |
| Tx:24.62 | he wants to be the truth! His wish is law unto him, and he obeys. | Nothing his specialness demands does he withhold. Nothing it needs |
| Tx:24.62 | him, and he obeys. Nothing his specialness demands does he withhold. | Nothing it needs does he deny to what he loves. And while it calls to |
| Tx:24.63 | the deep concern, the powerful conviction this is you belong to him. | Nothing you gave to specialness but is his due. And nothing due him |
| Tx:24.63 | belong to him. Nothing you gave to specialness but is his due. And | nothing due him is not due to you. |
| Tx:24.66 | its safety rests secure. If not, it has no purpose and is means for | nothing. Whatever is perceived as means for truth shares in its |
| Tx:24.68 | like Himself. A perfect being, all-encompassing and all-encompassed, | nothing to add and nothing taken from—not born of size nor weight |
| Tx:24.68 | being, all-encompassing and all-encompassed, nothing to add and | nothing taken from—not born of size nor weight nor time nor held to |
| Tx:25.3 | His light and fills it with the holiness that shines from Him. And | nothing that the body says or does but makes Him manifest. To those |
| Tx:25.7 | past it to the light. The veil is lifted through its gentleness, and | nothing hides the face of Christ from its beholders. And both of you |
| Tx:25.21 | the Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the Son alike. | Nothing has power over you except His Will and yours, who but extend |
| Tx:25.23 | to this world of God's more basic law that love creates itself and | nothing but itself. |
| Tx:25.26 | its goal with His Creator's purpose. In His perception of the world, | nothing is seen but justifies forgiveness and the sight of perfect |
| Tx:25.26 | seen but justifies forgiveness and the sight of perfect sinlessness. | Nothing arises but is met with instant and complete forgiveness. |
| Tx:25.27 | Nothing remains an instant to obscure the sinlessness that shines | |
| Tx:25.28 | a misperception be a sin? Let all your brother's errors be to you | nothing except a chance for you to see the workings of the Helper |
| Tx:25.33 | sin will bring you joy, so long will they be there for you to see. | Nothing is harmful or beneficent apart from what you wish. It is your |
| Tx:25.36 | Heaven be restored to him for whom it was created as his only home? | Nothing before and nothing after it. No other place, no other state |
| Tx:25.36 | to him for whom it was created as his only home? Nothing before and | nothing after it. No other place, no other state nor time. Nothing |
| Tx:25.36 | and nothing after it. No other place, no other state nor time. | Nothing beyond nor nearer. Nothing else. In any form. This can you |
| Tx:25.36 | No other place, no other state nor time. Nothing beyond nor nearer. | Nothing else. In any form. This can you bring to all the world and |
| Tx:25.43 | they look on speaks of Him to the beholder. He can see no evil, | nothing in the world to fear, and no one who is different from |
| Tx:25.48 | its laws are not imposed on you; its values are not yours. [And | nothing that you think you see in it is really there at all.] And |
| Tx:25.51 | can rise against His Will and be immutable? If you could realize | nothing is changeless but the Will of God, this course would not be |
| Tx:25.51 | for you. For it is this that you do not believe. Yet there is | nothing else you could believe if you but looked at what it really is. |
| Tx:25.52 | Not one Thought of His makes any sense at all within this world. And | nothing that the world believes as true has any meaning in His Mind |
| Tx:25.54 | perception can be based, another world perceived. And one in which | nothing is contradicted that would lead the Son of God to sanity and |
| Tx:25.54 | is contradicted that would lead the Son of God to sanity and joy. | Nothing attests to death and cruelty, to separation, and to |
| Tx:25.55 | everything that meets this one demand is worthy of your faith. But | nothing else. What is not love is sin, and either one perceives the |
| Tx:25.63 | is necessary to add to the idea no one can lose for you to gain. And | nothing more. |
| Tx:25.65 | There is a kind of justice in salvation of which the world knows | nothing. To the world, justice and vengeance are the same, for |
| Tx:25.77 | all the Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your special function shows you | nothing else but perfect justice can prevail for you. And you are |
| Tx:25.79 | willing it be given you. God's justice warrants gratitude, not fear. | Nothing you give is lost to you or anyone, but cherished and |
| Tx:26.1 | of him and sacrifice the rest. Look at the world, and you will see | nothing attached to anything beyond itself. All seeming entities can |
| Tx:26.17 | that is belongs to Him and will forever be as He created it. | Nothing He loves but must be sinless and beyond attack. Your special |
| Tx:26.18 | He knows of one creation, one reality, one truth, and but one Son. | Nothing conflicts with oneness. How, then, could there be complexity |
| Tx:26.18 | where oneness is? The truth makes no decisions, for there is | nothing to decide between. And only if there were could choosing be a |
| Tx:26.18 | in the advance toward oneness. What is everything leaves room for | nothing else. |
| Tx:26.21 | Nothing the Son of God believes can be destroyed. But what is truth | |
| Tx:26.25 | from beyond the gate behind which total lack of limits lies. | Nothing in boundless love could need forgiveness. And what is charity |
| Tx:26.25 | Forgiveness thus becomes the means by which he learns he has done | nothing to forgive. Forgiveness always rests upon the one who offers |
| Tx:26.26 | is totally forgiven. And what has been forgiven must join, for | nothing stands between to keep them separate and apart. The sinless |
| Tx:26.26 | separate and apart. The sinless must perceive that they are one, for | nothing stands between to push the other off. And in the space which |
| Tx:26.30 | ways. All learning is a help or hindrance to the gate of Heaven. | Nothing in between is possible. There are two teachers only, who |
| Tx:26.30 | but choose whether to go toward Heaven or away to nowhere. There is | nothing else to choose. |
| Tx:26.31 | Nothing is ever lost but time, which in the end is [nothing. It] is | |
| Tx:26.31 | can achieve? Think not the way to Heaven's gate is difficult at all. | Nothing you undertake with certain purpose and high resolve and happy |
| Tx:26.31 | to wander off, alone and miserable, down a road which leads to | nothing and which has no purpose. |
| Tx:26.44 | but an illusion and made it real. And it is real to you. It is not | nothing and through its perceived reality has entered all the world |
| Tx:26.53 | Nothing gives meaning where no meaning is. And truth needs no defense | |
| Tx:26.89 | Presence of your holy Guests be known to you. And to this purpose, | nothing can be added, for the world is purposeless except for this. |
| Tx:27.6 | he beholds in you. Here is the proof that he has never sinned—that | nothing which his madness bid him do was ever done or ever had |
| Tx:27.10 | apart from all experience of fear or love. For now it witnesses to | nothing yet, its purpose being open and the mind made free again to |
| Tx:27.17 | For here is his forgiveness proved to him. A miracle can offer | nothing less to him than it has given unto you. So does your healing |
| Tx:27.30 | it canceled out, and so they both are gone. And now he stands for | nothing. Symbols which but represent ideas that cannot be must stand |
| Tx:27.31 | The picture of your brother that you see means | nothing. There is nothing to attack or to deny, love, or hate, or to |
| Tx:27.31 | The picture of your brother that you see means nothing. There is | nothing to attack or to deny, love, or hate, or to endow with power |
| Tx:27.32 | with no opposite is what creation is. For this there are no symbols. | Nothing points beyond the truth, for what can stand for more than |
| Tx:27.34 | aid will merely be. Forgiveness vanishes and symbols fade, and | nothing which the eyes have ever seen or ears have heard remains to |
| Tx:27.35 | without opposite. You do not know the peace of power which opposes | nothing. Yet no other kind can be at all. Give welcome to the Power |
| Tx:27.40 | the questions. Where answers represent the questions, they add | nothing new, and nothing has been learned. |
| Tx:27.40 | Where answers represent the questions, they add nothing new, and | nothing has been learned. |
| Tx:27.46 | comforted. There is no sadness where a miracle has come to heal. And | nothing more than just one instant of your love without attack is |
| Tx:27.47 | blessing, for the One Who blesses you loves all the world and leaves | nothing within the world that could be feared. But if you shrink from |
| Tx:27.48 | Come to the holy instant and be healed, for | nothing that is there received is left behind on your returning to |
| Tx:27.54 | because their purpose cannot be achieved. Thus are they means for | nothing, for they have a goal without a meaning. And they share the |
| Tx:27.56 | for any one you choose is like the rest. This name or that, but | nothing more, you choose. You do not make a witness true because you |
| Tx:27.57 | speak in other ways for its reality. He knows it is not real. For | nothing could contain what you believe it holds within. Nor could it |
| Tx:27.73 | of the world of dreams. No other cause it has, nor ever will. | Nothing more fearful than an idle dream has terrified God's Son and |
| Tx:27.81 | upon himself. No one believes there really was a time when he knew | nothing of a body and could never have conceived this world as real. |
| Tx:27.84 | sad indeed. Yet they but follow. And it is their cause which follows | nothing and is but a jest. |
| Tx:28.1 | The miracle does | nothing. All it does is to undo. And thus it cancels out the |
| Tx:28.3 | Nothing employed for healing represents an effort to do anything at | |
| Tx:28.6 | Yet time is but another phase of what does | nothing. It works hand in hand with all the other attributes with |
| Tx:28.7 | Remember | nothing that you taught yourself, for you were badly taught. And who |

| Tx:28.11 | to other minds to share its quietness. And they will join in doing | nothing to prevent its radiant extension back into the mind Which |
| Tx:28.12 | where They would abide. For in that instant does the Son of God do | nothing that would make himself afraid. |
| Tx:28.14 | what he has made is causeless, making no effects at all. He has done | nothing. And in seeing this, he understands he never had a need for |
| Tx:28.18 | unlike yourself. And as their “father,” you must be like them. | Nothing at all has happened but that you have put yourself to sleep |
| Tx:28.22 | own attack, and he is innocent of what he caused. The miracle does | nothing but to show him that he has done nothing. What he fears is |
| Tx:28.22 | he caused. The miracle does nothing but to show him that he has done | nothing. What he fears is cause without the consequences which would |
| Tx:28.26 | that thought the body could be sick; projecting out its guilt caused | nothing and had no effects. |
| Tx:28.30 | The miracle does | nothing just because the minds are joined and cannot separate. Yet in |
| Tx:28.32 | is only its effect. Yet separation is but empty space, enclosing | nothing, doing nothing, and as unsubstantial as the empty place |
| Tx:28.32 | effect. Yet separation is but empty space, enclosing nothing, doing | nothing, and as unsubstantial as the empty place between the ripples |
| Tx:28.34 | and who stored a heap of snow that shone like silver. They have | nothing left behind the open door. What is the world except a little |
| Tx:28.45 | picture of God's Son! The forms the broken pieces seem to take mean | nothing. For the whole is in each one. And every aspect of the Son of |
| Tx:28.46 | Father is. Who seeks for substitutes when he perceives he has lost | nothing? Who would want to have the “benefits” of sickness when he |
| Tx:28.47 | them is sharing Him. There is no other choice. Except you share it, | nothing can exist. And you exist because God shared His Will with |
| Tx:28.53 | changing shapes, forever unsubstantial and unsure. Yet in the gap is | nothing. And there are no awesome secrets and no darkened tombs where |
| Tx:28.60 | God asks for | nothing, and His Son, like Him, need ask for nothing. For there is no |
| Tx:28.60 | God asks for nothing, and His Son, like Him, need ask for | nothing. For there is no lack in him. An empty space, a little gap, |
| Tx:29.1 | There is no time, no place, no state where God is absent. There is | nothing to be feared. There is no way in which a gap could be |
| Tx:29.8 | but its lack of strength or weakness. Would you recognize that | nothing stands between you? Would you know there is no gap behind |
| Tx:29.9 | Yet all that happens when the gap is gone is peace eternal. | Nothing more than that, and nothing less. Without the fear of God, |
| Tx:29.9 | when the gap is gone is peace eternal. Nothing more than that, and | nothing less. Without the fear of God, what could induce you to |
| Tx:29.10 | to find yourself in Heaven and in God? Until you realize you give up | nothing, until you understand there is no loss, you will have some |
| Tx:29.15 | God—His Son have life and every living thing be part of him, and | nothing else have life. What you have given “life” is not alive and |
| Tx:29.15 | here, for on confusion has this world been based, and there is | nothing else it rests upon. Its basis does not change, although it |
| Tx:29.18 | than it should be but only in your failure to perceive that it is | nothing. Yet its nothingness is your salvation, from which you would |
| Tx:29.32 | The changelessness of Heaven is in you, so deep within that | nothing in this world but passes by, unnoticed and unseen. The still |
| Tx:29.32 | embrace, so strong and quiet, tranquil in the might of its Creator; | nothing can intrude upon the sacred Son of God within. Here is the |
| Tx:29.32 | he is his Father's Son and not for any purpose you may see in him. | Nothing is asked of you but to accept the changeless and eternal that |
| Tx:29.37 | even though it was for this that every dream was made. Yet | nothing in the world of dreams remains without the hope of change and |
| Tx:29.40 | Nothing survives its purpose. If it be conceived to die, then die it | |
| Tx:29.42 | you need not let it stand for this to you. Let this be changed, and | nothing in the world but must be changed as well. For nothing here |
| Tx:29.42 | changed, and nothing in the world but must be changed as well. For | nothing here but is defined as what you see it for. How lovely is the |
| Tx:29.51 | there is no death, and only life exists. The sacrifice of death is | nothing lost. An idol cannot take the place of God. Let Him remind |
| Tx:29.56 | What is an idol? | Nothing! It must be believed before it seems to come to life and |
| Tx:29.58 | forever and has left no room for anything to be except His Will. | Nothing and nowhere must an idol be while God is everything and |
| Tx:30.31 | occur. It is but this agreement which permits all things to happen. | Nothing can be caused without some form of union, be it with a dream |
| Tx:30.34 | How wonderful it is to do your will! For that is freedom. There is | nothing else that ever should be called by freedom's name. Unless you |
| Tx:30.43 | Nothing that God knows not exists. And what He knows exists forever, | |
| Tx:30.48 | a thing apart from you and in a world which your reality knows | nothing of? Outside you there is no eternal sky, no changeless star, |
| Tx:30.53 | Attack has power to make illusions real. Yet what it makes is | nothing. Who could be made fearful by a power that can have no real |
| Tx:30.56 | Be glad indeed salvation asks so little, not so much. It asks for | nothing in reality. And even in illusions it but asks forgiveness be |
| Tx:30.56 | of the toys of fear, and then its unreality is plain. Dreams are for | nothing. And the Son of God can have no need of them. They offer him |
| Tx:30.61 | the mind can let them go when it has understood that idols are | nothing and nowhere and are purposeless. For only then can guilt and |
| Tx:30.86 | things have but one purpose which you share with all the world. And | nothing in the world can be opposed to it, for it belongs to |
| Tx:30.88 | Do not interpret out of solitude, for what you see means | nothing. It will shift in what it stands for, and you will believe |
| Tx:30.91 | than those you would not want to have reality. Temptation, then, is | nothing more than this—a prayer the miracle touch not some dreams |
| Tx:31.3 | power in the world. The world was made by it and even now depends on | nothing else. The lessons you have taught yourselves have been so |
| Tx:31.8 | everything is lit with hope and sparkles with a gentle friendliness. | Nothing but calls to you in soft appeal to be your friend and let it |
| Tx:31.22 | no assault upon your wish to hear a call that never has been made. | Nothing will hurt you in this holy place to which you come to listen |
| Tx:31.28 | is not seen to be a passive thing, obeying your commands and doing | nothing of itself at all. If you are sin you are a body, for the mind |
| Tx:31.30 | guilt rules and orders that the world be like itself—a place where | nothing can find mercy or survive the ravages of fear except in |
| Tx:31.56 | find the answer to the riddle of himself. Salvation can be seen as | nothing more than the escape from concepts. It does not concern |
| Tx:31.57 | yourself. The concept of the self embraces all you look upon, and | nothing is outside of this perception. If you can be hurt by |
| Tx:31.57 | can be hurt by anything, you see a picture of your secret wishes. | Nothing more than this. And in your suffering of any kind, you see |
| Tx:31.67 | worthy of your trust; a happy place to rest in for a while, where | nothing need be feared but only loved. Who is unwelcome to the kind |
| Tx:31.74 | which dims your sight and warps your vision, so that you behold | nothing with clarity. The light is kept from everything you see. At |
| Tx:31.75 | of himself in him. Thus is the concept of himself laid by, for | nothing stands between his sight and what he looks upon to judge what |
| Tx:31.81 | hope except to die and end the dream of fear. This is temptation, | nothing more than this. Can this be difficult to choose against? |
| Tx:31.90 | I am as God created me. His Son can suffer | nothing. And I am His Son. |
| Tx:31.91 | are false distinctions gone, illusory alternatives laid by, and | nothing left to interfere with truth. |
| Tx:31.93 | do not fail to hear my voice and listen to my words. I ask for | nothing but your own release. There is no place for hell within a |
| W1:I.1 | which will make the goal possible. An untrained mind can accomplish | nothing. It is the purpose of these exercises to train the mind to |
| W1:I.5 | contain. Whatever your reactions to the ideas may be, use them. | Nothing more than this is required. |
| W1:1.5 | for these exercises should not become ritualistic. Only be sure that | nothing you see is specifically excluded. One thing is like another |
| W1:2.2 | it. Make no attempt to include anything particular, but be sure that | nothing is specifically excluded. |
| W1:7.2 | It is the reason why | nothing that you see means anything. |
| W1:7.12 | Do not linger over any one thing in particular, but remember to omit | nothing specifically. Glance briefly at each subject, and then move |
| W1:9.3 | its indiscriminate application and the essential rule of excluding | nothing. For example: |
| W1:13.1 | to the emotion aroused. Actually, a meaningless world is impossible. | Nothing without meaning exists. However, it does not follow that you |
| W1:14.1 | that does exist exists as He created it. The world you see has | nothing to do with reality. It is of your own making, and it does not |
| W1:15.1 | think you think appear as images that you do not recognize them as | nothing. You think you think them, and so you think you see them. |
| W1:16.2 | the truth or it multiplies illusions. You can indeed multiply | nothing, but you will not extend it by doing so. |
| W1:21.2 | will become increasingly aware that a slight twinge of annoyance is | nothing but a veil drawn over intense fury. |
| W1:21.3 | that you do not really recognize what arouses anger in you, and | nothing that you believe in this connection means anything. You will |
| W1:22.4 | I see only the perishable. I see | nothing that will last. What I see is not real. What I see is a form |
| W1:23.1 | for today contains the only way out of fear that will ever succeed. | Nothing else will work; everything else is meaningless. But this way |
| W1:24.8 | you are making a large number of demands of the situation which have | nothing to do with it. You will also recognize that many of your |
| W1:25.1 | Purpose is meaning. Today's idea explains why | nothing you see means anything. You do not know what it is for. |
| W1:25.2 | in it as meaningful in terms of ego goals. These goals have | nothing to do with your own best interests, because the ego is not |
| W1:25.3 | you have no personal interests, your goals are really concerned with | nothing. In cherishing them, therefore, you have no goals at all. And |
| W1:26.4 | vulnerability or invulnerability is the result of your own thoughts. | Nothing except your thoughts can attack you. Nothing except your |
| W1:26.4 | of your own thoughts. Nothing except your thoughts can attack you. | Nothing except your thoughts can make you think you are vulnerable. |
| W1:26.4 | except your thoughts can make you think you are vulnerable. And | nothing except your thoughts can prove to you this is not so. |
| W1:29.1 | explains why you can see all purpose in anything. It explains why | nothing is separate, by itself or in itself. And it explains why |
| W1:29.1 | why nothing is separate, by itself or in itself. And it explains why | nothing you see means anything. In fact, it explains every idea we |
| W1:29.3 | You do not see them now. Would you know what is in them? | Nothing is as it appears to you. Its holy purpose stands beyond your |
| W1:35.10 | longer exercise periods, there will probably be intervals in which | nothing specific occurs to you. Do not strain to think up specific |
| W1:35.10 | repeat today's idea slowly until something occurs to you. Although | nothing that does occur should be omitted from the exercises, nothing |
| W1:35.10 | nothing that does occur should be omitted from the exercises, | nothing should be “dug out” with effort. Neither force nor |
| W1:35.11 | them, adding the idea to each of them in the form stated above. If | nothing particular occurs to you, merely repeat the idea to yourself |
| W1:37.1 | holiness. Thus are you and the world blessed together. No one loses; | nothing is taken away from anyone; everyone gains through your holy |
| W1:37.2 | awareness through your vision. Your holiness blesses him by asking | nothing of him. Those who see themselves as whole make no demands. |
| W1:38.1 | your holiness the power of God is made available. And there is | nothing the power of God cannot do. |
| W1:38.5 | In the situation involving ______ in which I see myself, there is | nothing that my holiness cannot do. In the situation involving ______ |
| W1:38.5 | the situation involving ______ in which _____ sees himself, there is | nothing my holiness cannot do. |
| W1:38.7 | There is | nothing my holiness cannot do because the power of God lies in it. |
| W1:38.8 | appeal to you, but keep the exercises focused on the theme “There is | nothing my holiness cannot do.” The purpose of today's exercises is |
| W1:41.3 | alone because the Source of all life goes with you wherever you go. | Nothing can destroy your peace of mind because God goes with you |
| W1:42.4 | and repeat the idea again, quite slowly. After this, try to think of | nothing except thoughts which occur to you in relation to today's |
| W1:42.9 | teaching you that we are studying a unified thought system in which | nothing is lacking that is needed, and nothing is included that is |
| W1:42.9 | thought system in which nothing is lacking that is needed, and | nothing is included that is contradictory or irrelevant. |
| W1:45.1 | Today's idea holds the key to what your real thoughts are. They are | nothing that you think you think, just as nothing that you think you |
| W1:45.1 | thoughts are. They are nothing that you think you think, just as | nothing that you think you see is related to vision in any way. There |
| W1:45.1 | is no relationship between what is real and what you think is real. | Nothing that you think are your real thoughts resembles your real |
| W1:45.1 | are your real thoughts resembles your real thoughts in any respect. | Nothing that you think you see bears any resemblance to what vision |
| W1:47.8 | in you where there is perfect peace. There is a place in you where | nothing is impossible. There is a place in you where the strength of |
| W1:48.1 | believe in illusions, but illusions are not facts. In truth there is | nothing to fear. It is very easy to recognize this. But it is very |
| W1:48.3 | you are trusting in your own strength. The awareness that there is | nothing to fear shows that somewhere in your mind, not necessarily in |
| W1:48.3 | of yours. The instant you are willing to do this, there is indeed | nothing to fear. |
| W1:50.2 | peace and safety. It will transport you into a state of mind which | nothing can threaten, nothing can disturb, and where nothing can |
| W1:50.2 | will transport you into a state of mind which nothing can threaten, | nothing can disturb, and where nothing can intrude upon the eternal |
| W1:50.2 | of mind which nothing can threaten, nothing can disturb, and where | nothing can intrude upon the eternal calm of the Son of God. |
| W1:51.2 | [1] | Nothing I see means anything. The reason this is so is that I see |
| W1:51.2 | [1] Nothing I see means anything. The reason this is so is that I see | nothing, and nothing has no meaning. It is necessary that I recognize |
| W1:51.2 | see means anything. The reason this is so is that I see nothing, and | nothing has no meaning. It is necessary that I recognize this, that I |
| W1:52.2 | I have given them reality and thus regard reality as an illusion. | Nothing in God's creation is affected in any way by this confusion of |
| W1:52.2 | affected in any way by this confusion of mine. I am always upset by | nothing. |
| W1:52.4 | to give the past away, realizing that in so doing I am giving up | nothing. |
| W1:52.5 | [9] I see | nothing as it is now. If I see nothing as it is now, it can truly be |
| W1:52.5 | [9] I see nothing as it is now. If I see | nothing as it is now, it can truly be said that I see nothing. I can |
| W1:52.5 | now. If I see nothing as it is now, it can truly be said that I see | nothing. I can see only what is now. The choice is not whether to see |
| W1:52.6 | What can these thoughts mean? They do not exist, and so they mean | nothing. Yet my mind is part of creation and part of its Creator. |
| W1:53.4 | it is completely undependable and offers no grounds for trust. | Nothing in madness is dependable. It holds out no safety and no hope. |
| W1:54.4 | form the basis of the world I see. Yet that sharing was a sharing of | nothing. I can also call upon my real thoughts, which share |
| W1:54.5 | not alone in experiencing the effects of my thoughts. I am alone in | nothing. Everything I think or say or do touches all the universe. A |
| W1:57.2 | so. The prison door is open. I can leave it simply by walking out. | Nothing holds me in this world. Only my wish to stay keeps me a |
| W1:58.3 | I see in its light shares in the joy it brings to me. There is | nothing that is apart from this joy because there is nothing that |
| W1:58.3 | to me. There is nothing that is apart from this joy because there is | nothing that does not share my holiness. As I recognize my holiness, |
| W1:58.4 | [38] There is | nothing my holiness cannot do. My holiness is unlimited in its power |
| W1:58.5 | the salvation of the world. Once I have accepted my holiness, | nothing can make me afraid. And because I am unafraid, everyone must |
| W1:60.2 | cannot blame, and those who have accepted their innocence see | nothing to forgive. Yet forgiveness is the means by which I will |
| W1:60.4 | [48] There is | nothing to fear. How safe the world will look to me when I can see |
| W1:64.2 | Nothing the body's eyes seem to see can be anything but a form of | |
| W1:64.10 | reviewing these thoughts and then to thinking about them and about | nothing else. This will be difficult at first particularly, since you |
| W1:68.9 | over you, and holding you up. Try to believe, however briefly, that | nothing can harm you in any way. At the end of the practice period |
| W1:70.1 | All temptation is | nothing more than some form of the basic temptation not to believe |
| W1:70.2 | The seeming “cost” of accepting today's idea is this: it means that | nothing outside yourself can save you; nothing outside yourself can |
| W1:70.2 | idea is this: it means that nothing outside yourself can save you; | nothing outside yourself can give you peace. But it also means that |
| W1:70.2 | nothing outside yourself can give you peace. But it also means that | nothing outside yourself can hurt you or disturb your peace or upset |
| W1:70.8 | a statement signifying your recognition that salvation comes from | nothing outside of you. You might put it this way: |
| W1:70.14 | today, remind yourself that your salvation comes from you and | nothing but your own thoughts can hamper your progress. You are free |
| W1:70.15 | My salvation comes from me. | Nothing outside of me can hold me back. Within me is the world's |
| W1:72.7 | of what the body offers. Take the little you can get. God gave you | nothing. The body is your only savior. It is the death of God and |
| W1:73.1 | strong. But they are idle indeed in terms of creation. They make | nothing that is real. |
| W1:73.9 | ego which stands powerless before your will. Your will is free, and | nothing can prevail against it. Therefore we undertake the exercises |
| W1:74.6 | I am at peace. | Nothing can disturb me. My will is God's My will and God's are one. |
| W1:76.10 | nor received. Exchange cannot be made, there are no substitutes, and | nothing is replaced by something else. God's laws forever give and |
| W1:83.7 | of my happiness and my function remains wholly unaffected by this. | Nothing, including this, can justify the illusion of happiness apart |
| W1:92.7 | and in love. It sees all others different from itself and | nothing in the world that it would share. It judges and condemns but |
| W1:93.2 | fixed that it is difficult to help you see that they are based on | nothing. That you have made mistakes is obvious. That you have sought |
| W1:93.4 | evil that you think you did was never done, that all your “sins” are | nothing, that you are as pure and holy as you were created, and that |
| W1:93.5 | does not exist at all. And anything it seems to do and think means | nothing. It is neither bad nor good. It is unreal and nothing more |
| W1:93.5 | think means nothing. It is neither bad nor good. It is unreal and | nothing more than that. It does not battle with the Son of God. It |
| W1:93.6 | it is accepted. It is true. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. | Nothing can touch it nor can change what God created as eternal. The |
| W1:94.6 | Nothing is required of you to reach this goal except to lay all idols | |
| W1:95.2 | you are the Son of God, for it is senseless and understands | nothing. |
| W1:95.10 | you have merely made a mistake. This calls for correction and for | nothing else. |
| W1:95.12 | This is the truth, and | nothing else is true. Today we will affirm this truth again and try |
| W1:98.6 | success. And since time has no meaning, you are being asked for | nothing in return for everything. Here is a bargain that you cannot |
| W1:102.2 | accomplish anything. It cannot purchase anything at all. It offers | nothing and does not exist. And everything you think it offers you is |
| W1:102.2 | you is lacking in existence like itself. You have been slave to | nothing. Be you free today to join the happy Will of God. |
| W1:104.7 | what belongs to us in truth is what He gives. And we would wish for | nothing else, for nothing else belongs to us in truth. |
| W1:104.7 | in truth is what He gives. And we would wish for nothing else, for | nothing else belongs to us in truth. |
| W1:105.3 | see. It strips all meaning from the gifts you give and leaves you | nothing in the ones you take. A major learning goal this course has |
| W1:106.1 | seem to call; if you will not accept its petty gifts which give you | nothing that you really want; if you will listen with an open mind, |
| W1:107.2 | when there was a time—perhaps a minute, maybe even less—when | nothing came to interrupt your peace; when you were certain you were |
| W1:110.7 | I am as God created me. His Son can suffer | nothing. And I am His Son. |
| W1:R3.4 | periods to be replacements for your litanies to them. They gave you | nothing. But your practicing can offer everything to you. And so |
| W1:117.2 | being Love, is also happiness. Let me remember love is happiness and | nothing else brings joy. And so I choose to entertain no substitutes |
| W1:124.1 | and strength available to us in all our undertakings. We can fail in | nothing. Everything we touch takes on a shining light which blesses |
| W1:124.9 | Your benefit will not be less if you believe that | nothing happens. You may not be ready to accept the gain today. Yet |
| W1:128.1 | The world you see has | nothing that you need to offer you, nothing that you can use in any |
| W1:128.1 | The world you see has nothing that you need to offer you, | nothing that you can use in any way, nor anything at all that serves |
| W1:128.2 | where there is none. Be you deceived no more. The world you see has | nothing that you want. |
| W1:128.4 | Let | nothing which relates to body thoughts delay your progress to |
| W1:128.4 | to believe the world has anything you want to hold you back. | Nothing is here to cherish. Nothing here is worth one instant of |
| W1:128.4 | has anything you want to hold you back. Nothing is here to cherish. | Nothing here is worth one instant of delay and pain, one moment of |
| W1:128.4 | and pain, one moment of uncertainty and doubt. The worthless offer | nothing. Certainty of worth cannot be found in worthlessness. |
| W1:128.9 | This will not tempt me to delay myself. The world I see has | nothing that I want. |
| W1:129.6 | be for you in choosing not to value nothingness? This world holds | nothing that you really want, but what you choose instead you want |
| W1:129.8 | I want. I choose to see that world instead of this, for here is | nothing that I really want. |
| W1:129.12 | The world I see has | nothing that I want. Beyond this world there is a world I want. |
| W1:130.5 | go. The real and the unreal are all there is to choose between, and | nothing more than these. |
| W1:131.15 | who asks to reach the truth, and it is this request you make today. | Nothing but this has any meaning now; no other goal is valued now nor |
| W1:131.15 | this has any meaning now; no other goal is valued now nor sought; | nothing before this door you really want, and only what lies past it |
| W1:132.4 | you hold the bitter thought of death within your mind. The world is | nothing in itself. Your mind must give it meaning. And what you |
| W1:133.6 | is no in-between. Each choice you make brings everything to you or | nothing. Therefore, if you learn the tests by which you can |
| W1:133.6 | if you learn the tests by which you can distinguish everything from | nothing, you will make the better choice. |
| W1:133.7 | there and makes no offering to him who chooses it. He is deceived by | nothing in a form he thinks he likes. |
| W1:133.8 | if you choose to take a thing away from someone else, you will have | nothing left. This is because when you deny his right to everything, |
| W1:133.8 | by the illusion loss can offer gain. Yet loss must offer loss and | nothing more. |
| W1:133.13 | to obtain. Choosing is easy just because of this. Complexity is | nothing but a screen of smoke which hides the very simple fact that |
| W1:133.14 | Itself is reached by empty hands and open minds, which come with | nothing to find everything and claim it as their own. We will attempt |
| W1:135.21 | our brothers lay aside their cumbersome defenses which availed them | nothing and could only terrify. |
| W1:135.25 | Nothing but that. If there are plans to make, you will be told of | |
| W1:135.26 | you ever thought that you must be defended from release. Heaven asks | nothing. It is hell that makes extravagant demands for sacrifice. You |
| W1:135.26 | It is hell that makes extravagant demands for sacrifice. You give up | nothing in these times today when undefended you present yourself to |
| W1:136.19 | all is in the mind to what the body does. Its usefulness remains and | nothing more. |
| W1:136.20 | by food and drink, or any laws you made it serve before. You need do | nothing now to make it well, for sickness has become impossible. |
| W1:138.3 | decision, time is but a waste and effort dissipated. It is spent for | nothing in return. And time goes by without results. There is no |
| W1:138.3 | And time goes by without results. There is no sense of gain, for | nothing is accomplished; nothing learned. |
| W1:138.3 | results. There is no sense of gain, for nothing is accomplished; | nothing learned. |
| W1:138.4 | you will perceive it was no choice at all, for truth is true and | nothing else is real. There is no opposite to choose instead. There |
| W1:138.11 | we make a conscious choice between what has existence and what has | nothing but an appearance of the truth. Its pseudo-being, brought to |
| W1:139.6 | its madness in the sad belief that what is universal here is true? | Nothing the world believes is true. It is a place whose purpose is to |
| W1:140.2 | of a dream make in reality? One either sleeps or wakens. There is | nothing in between. |
| W1:140.4 | all sickness. For the mind which understands that sickness can be | nothing but a dream is not deceived by forms the dream may take. |
| W1:140.4 | possible. And that is cure indeed. For sickness now is gone, with | nothing left to which it can return. |

| W1:191.11 | hear this: all power is given you in earth and Heaven. There is | nothing that you cannot do. You play the game of death, of being |
| W1:192.7 | with thanks, and joyously accepted? We are one and therefore give up | nothing. But we have indeed been given everything by God. Yet do we |
| W1:195.3 | your peace, a plunderer who takes his joy from you and leaves you | nothing but a black despair so bitter and relentless that there is no |
| W1:195.6 | thanks for every living thing, for otherwise we offer thanks for | nothing and we fail to recognize the gifts of God to us. |
| W1:200.1 | sense of icy hopelessness and doubt. Seek you no further. There is | nothing else for you to find except the peace of God, unless you seek |
| W1:200.6 | What does forgiveness do? In truth it has no function and does | nothing, for it is unknown in Heaven. It is only hell where it is |
| W2:I.7 | Father and the Son, Whose holy will created all that is, can fail in | nothing. In this certainty, we undertake these last few steps to You |
| W2:WF.4 | Forgiveness, on the other hand, is still and quietly does | nothing. It offends no aspect of reality nor seeks to twist it to |
| W2:WF.5 | Do | nothing, then, and let forgiveness show you what to do through Him |

| W2:WS.3 | Salvation is undoing in the sense that it does | nothing, failing to support the world of dreams and malice. Thus it |
| W2:231.1 | Yet is Your Love the only thing I seek or ever sought. For there is | nothing else that I could ever really want to find. Let me remember |
| W2:234.1 | continuity nor break in thoughts which are forever unified as one. | Nothing has ever happened to disturb the peace of God the Father and |
| W2:WIS.1 | is not to know. And truth can be but filled with knowledge and with | nothing else. |
| W2:258.1 | in our minds, obscured but by our pointless little goals which offer | nothing and do not exist. Shall we continue to allow God's grace to |
| W2:264.1 | and keeps him safe is Love Itself. There is no Source but This, and | nothing is that does not share Its holiness, that stands beyond Your |
| W2:269.1 | of Christ and teaches me that what I look upon belongs to me, that | nothing is except Your holy Son. |
| W2:WIC.5 | at last? So therefore let us seek to find Christ's face and look on | nothing else. As we behold His glory will we know we have no need of |
| W2:271.1 | disappears. His kindly sight redeems the world from death. For | nothing that He looks on but must live, remembering the Father and |
| W2:273.1 | with certainty, “The stillness of the peace of God is mine,” and | nothing can intrude upon the peace that God Himself has given to His |
| W2:275.2 | today, and so I leave all things to You. I need be anxious over | nothing. For Your Voice will tell me what to do and where to go, to |
| W2:278.2 | Father, I ask for | nothing but the truth. I have had many foolish thoughts about myself |
| W2:281.1 | of where Your Thoughts belong and where They are. I can be hurt by | nothing but my thoughts. The thoughts I think with You can only |

| W2:WIRW.2 | but rest is there. There are no cries of pain and sorrow heard, for | nothing here remains outside forgiveness. And the sights are gentle. |
| W2:302.2 | as we go to Him and walks beside us, showing us the way. He fails in | nothing. He the end we seek, and He the means by which we come to Him. |
| W2:307.1 | is impossible. Your Son is one with You in being and in will, and | nothing contradicts the holy truth that I remain as You created me. |
| W2:322.1 | I sacrifice illusions, | nothing more. And as illusions go, I find the gifts illusions tried |
| W2:322.2 | cannot sacrifice except in dreams. As You created me, I can give up | nothing You gave me. What You did not give has no reality. What loss |
| W2:328.2 | There is no will but Yours. And I am glad that | nothing I imagine contradicts what You would have me be. It is Your |
| W2:334.2 | I seek but the eternal. For Your Son can be content with | nothing less than this. What then can be his solace but what You are |
| W2:337.1 | do to know all this is mine? I must accept Atonement for myself and | nothing more. God has already done all things that need be done. And |
| W2:337.1 | done all things that need be done. And I must learn I need do | nothing of myself, for I need but accept my Self, my sinlessness, |
| W2:338.1 | at last from fear. Now he has learned that no one frightens him and | nothing can endanger him. He has no enemies, and he is safe from all |
| W2:339.2 | Father, this is Your day. It is a day in which I would do | nothing by myself but hear Your Voice in everything I do; requesting |
| W2:344.1 | upon the treasure that I thought I had, I found an empty place where | nothing ever was or is or will be. Who can share a dream? And what |
| W2:346.2 | And when the evening comes today, we will remember | nothing but the peace of God. For we will learn today what peace is |
| W2:353.1 | in any way that best will serve the purpose that I share with Him. | Nothing is mine alone, for He and I have joined in purpose. Thus has |
| W2:358.1 | to Your Son in my awareness always. Let me not forget myself is | nothing, but my Self is all. |
| W2:FL.5 | We have been saved from wrath because we learned we were mistaken. | Nothing more than that. And is a father angry at his son because he |
| M:I.4 | be? Into this hopeless and closed learning situation which teaches | nothing but despair and death, God sends His teachers. And as they |
| M:4.6 | them in this world of illusion. The word “value” can apply to | nothing else. |
| M:4.11 | only to what you say. The term actually means consistency. There is | nothing you say that contradicts what you think or do; no thought |
| M:4.14 | at all except by those who realize that harm can actually achieve | nothing. No gain can come of it. |
| M:4.17 | when the teacher of God finally agrees to look past them, he finds | nothing was there. Slowly at first, he lets himself be undeceived. |

| Tx:2.63 | merely means right-mindedness in the sense that we are | now using it. The right-minded neither exalt nor depreciate the mind |
| Tx:2.70 | Most of the loftier concepts of which man is capable | now are time-dependent. Charity is really a weaker reflection of a |
| Tx:2.70 | right-mindedness in the limited sense in which right-mindedness can | now be attained. Charity is a way of looking at another as if he had |
| Tx:3.18 | instances separately. If you can accept the one generalization | now, there will be no need to learn from many smaller lessons. |
| Tx:3.38 | and creates. These are its unequivocal functions.] The abilities man | now possesses are only shadows of his real strengths. All of his |
| Tx:3.50 | the real meaning of the celestial speed-up. Strong wills can do this | now, and you will find rest for your Souls. God knows you only in |
| Tx:3.51 | was accomplished by the union of my will with the Father's. We can | now make a distinction which will greatly facilitate clarity in our |
| Tx:3.76 | belief that they are is implicit in the “self concept,” a concept | now made acceptable by its weakness and explained by a tendency of |
| Tx:4.10 | Teaching and learning are your greatest strengths | now, because you must change your mind and help others change theirs. |
| Tx:4.16 | because it is literally incredible. Do not believe the incredible | now. Any attempt to increase its believability is merely to postpone |
| Tx:4.17 | totally without the investment in fear. Your investment is great | now because fear is a witness to the separation, and your ego |
| Tx:4.26 | happened in the dim past when it is so clearly happening right | now? |
| Tx:4.29 | you need precisely what would hurt you most. Whether you know it | now or not, however, you have willed to cooperate in a concerted and |
| Tx:4.48 | It should be apparent to you by | now why the ego regards the Soul as its “enemy.” The ego arose from |
| Tx:4.82 | Immortality is a constant state. It is as true | now as it ever was or ever will be because it implies no change at |
| Tx:4.89 | This is only because I completed my part in it as a man and can | now complete it through other men. My chosen receiving and sending |
| Tx:4.94 | It should be clear by | now that, while the content of any particular ego-illusion does not |
| Tx:5.21 | guidance. You knew as you will know again, but as you do not know | now. God does not guide because He can share only perfect knowledge. |
| Tx:5.26 | are not things; they are devotions. Yet you have other devotions | now. Your divided devotion has given you the two voices, and you must |
| Tx:5.26 | must choose at which altar you will to serve. The call you answer | now is an evaluation because it is a decision. The decision itself is |
| Tx:5.37 | without question. The only aspect of time which is really eternal is | now. That is what we really mean when we say that “now is the only |
| Tx:5.48 | wise though incomplete. Let us make the distinction a little sharper | now. Neurotic guilt feelings are a device of the ego for “atoning” |
| Tx:5.51 | as much as you learn and that will keep you in balance. The time is | now because you have let it be now. You cannot learn except by |
| Tx:5.51 | will keep you in balance. The time is now because you have let it be | now. You cannot learn except by teaching. |
| Tx:5.81 | the Sonship in the name of its Creator. What you need to learn | now is that only infinite patience can produce immediate effects. |
| Tx:5.81 | Infinite patience calls upon infinite love, and by producing results | now, it renders time unnecessary. |
| Tx:5.86 | upon his mind and enlighten it truly. As a result, he overlooked | now entirely and merely saw the continuity of past and future. |
| Tx:5.93 | But the time is | now. You have not been asked to work out the plan of salvation |
| Tx:6.23 | [It was as much intrapersonal as interpersonal then, just as it is | now, and it is still just as real. But because it is just as real |
| Tx:6.23 | is now, and it is still just as real. But because it is just as real | now, its lesson, too, has equal reality when it is learned.] I do not |
| Tx:6.30 | completely unalterable. It is total inclusion. You cannot change it | now or ever. It is forever true. It is not a belief but a fact. |
| Tx:6.32 | nor in part. The Holy Spirit enables you to perceive this wholeness | now. You can no more pray for yourselves alone than you can find joy |
| Tx:6.33 | in perfect alignment with the idea and therefore does not want it | now. |
| Tx:6.47 | He answers for all time, which means that everyone has the answer | now. |
| Tx:6.52 | abilities are meaningless. It is curious that the perfect must | now be perfected. In fact, it is impossible. You must remember, |
| Tx:6.57 | Like any good teacher, the Holy Spirit does know more than you do | now, but He teaches only to make you equal with Him. This is because |
| Tx:6.58 | believe in magic. You merely reassure them that they are safe | now. Then you train them to recognize the difference between sleeping |
| Tx:6.63 | order of difficulty in miracles. This is familiar enough to you by | now, but it has not yet become believable. Therefore, you do not |
| Tx:6.72 | increase conflict temporarily, and we can clarify this still further | now. |
| Tx:6.81 | the fundamental change will occur. You are only beginning this step | now, but you have started on this way by realizing that only one way |
| Tx:6.92 | that you perceive its wholeness and have learned that it is one. | Now you must be vigilant to hold its oneness in your minds because, |
| Tx:6.95 | preserve what you made because it was not true. Therefore, you must | now turn your effort against it. Only this can cancel out the need |
| Tx:7.7 | God [was said to] take was therefore true in the beginning, is true | now, and will be true forever. |
| Tx:7.19 | the three apples are not there. But it is not true that the table is | now minus three apples. If there is nothing on the table, it does not |
| Tx:8.110 | you will hear me. Listening to truth is the only way you can hear it | now and finally know it. |
| Tx:9.13 | make perfect sense because they come from God. They are as sensible | now as they ever were, because they speak of ideas which are eternal. |
| Tx:9.15 | so typical of the ego that you should be quite familiar with it by | now. The ego believes that all functions belong to it, even though it |
| Tx:9.20 | of the ego. Let us consider the unhealed healer more carefully | now. By definition, he is trying to give what he has not received. If |
| Tx:9.38 | because delay of joy is needless. God wills you perfect happiness | now. Is it possible that this is not also your will? And is it |
| Tx:9.50 | When it experiences threat, its only decision is whether to attack | now or to withdraw to attack later. If you accept its offer of |
| Tx:9.66 | possible has not yet been accomplished. Yet what has once been is so | now if it is eternal. When you remember, you will know what you |
| Tx:9.66 | you will know what you remember is eternal and therefore is | now. |
| Tx:9.81 | you always receive as much as you accept. You could accept peace | now for everyone you meet and offer them perfect freedom from all |
| Tx:10.40 | be looking at is the source of fear, but you have surely learned by | now that fear is not real. We have accepted the fact already that its |
| Tx:10.62 | accomplished, and it has been accomplished in you. This is as true | now as it will ever be, for the resurrection is the Will of God, |
| Tx:10.62 | we ascend unto the Father together, as it was in the beginning, is | now, and ever shall be, for such is the nature of God's Son as His |
| Tx:11.51 | possible that the way to achieve a goal is not to attain it? Resign | now as your own teachers. This resignation will not lead to |
| Tx:11.93 | time, and time is but an illusion. For the Son of God is guiltless | now, and the brightness of his purity shines untouched forever in |
| Tx:11.96 | You are immortal because you are eternal and always must be | now. Guilt, then, is a way of holding past and future in your minds |
| Tx:12.23 | And | now the reason why you are afraid of this course should be apparent. |
| Tx:12.27 | Now has no meaning to the ego. The present merely reminds it of past | |
| Tx:12.27 | as if it were present. Thus it dictates reactions to those you meet | now from a past reference point, obscuring their present reality. In |
| Tx:12.27 | deny yourself the message of release that every brother offers you | now. |
| Tx:12.30 | on the only aspect of time which can extend to the infinite, for | now is the closest approximation of eternity which this world offers. |
| Tx:12.30 | of eternity which this world offers. It is in the reality of | now, without past or future, that the beginning of the appreciation |
| Tx:12.30 | that the beginning of the appreciation of eternity lies. For only | now is here, and it presents the opportunities for the holy |
| Tx:12.45 | error. This means that you perceive a brother only as you see him | now. His past has no reality in the present, and you cannot see it. |
| Tx:12.45 | to him are also not there, and if it is to them that you react | now, you see but an image of him which you made and cherish instead |
| Tx:12.45 | of illusions, ask yourself if it is really sane to perceive what was | now. If you remember the past as you look upon your brother, you will |
| Tx:12.45 | your brother, you will be unable to perceive the reality that is | now. |
| Tx:12.46 | as you perceived it, you will be able to learn from what you see | now. For the past can cast no shadow to darken the present unless you |
| Tx:12.47 | This darkness is in you. The Christ revealed to you | now has no past, for He is changeless, and in His changelessness lies |
| Tx:12.47 | past, and if you would have it past and gone, you must not see it | now. If you see it now in your delusions, it has not gone from you, |
| Tx:12.47 | would have it past and gone, you must not see it now. If you see it | now in your delusions, it has not gone from you, although it is not |
| Tx:12.52 | Now is the time of salvation, for now is the release from time. Reach | |
| Tx:12.52 | Now is the time of salvation, for | now is the release from time. Reach out to all your brothers and |
| Tx:12.66 | only in the past. Yet here it is, and you can understand it | now. God loves His Son forever, and His Son returns his Father's love |
| Tx:13.23 | impose your idle wishes on the present and hope to find salvation | now? |
| Tx:13.27 | Now it is given you to heal and teach, to make what will be now. As | |
| Tx:13.27 | Now it is given you to heal and teach, to make what will be | now. As yet it is not now. The Son of God believes that he is lost in |
| Tx:13.27 | you to heal and teach, to make what will be now. As yet it is not | now. The Son of God believes that he is lost in guilt, alone in a |
| Tx:13.42 | peace still flows to you from Him Whose Will is peace. You have it | now. The Holy Spirit will teach you how to use it and, by projecting |
| Tx:13.47 | there alone their seeming clearness seems to be clearly seen. Let us | now turn away from them and follow the simple logic by which the Holy |
| Tx:14.17 | and you who made these guardians of illusion out of nothing are | now afraid of them. |
| Tx:14.38 | past, too, was changed and interposed between what always was and | now. The past which you remember never was and represents only the |
| Tx:14.60 | have taught yourselves in the past by showing you only what you are | now. Learning has been accomplished before its effects are manifest. |
| Tx:14.65 | it. And I will not use my own past learning as the light to guide me | now. |
| Tx:15.6 | The ego teaches that Heaven is here and | now because the future is hell. Even when it attacks so savagely that |
| Tx:15.9 | The Holy Spirit would undo all of this | now. Fear is not of the present but only of the past and future, |
| Tx:15.9 | is there. No darkness is remembered, and immortality and joy are | now. |
| Tx:15.10 | as a teaching aid to happiness and peace. Take this very instant, | now, and think of it as all there is of time. Nothing can reach you |
| Tx:15.21 | Start | now to practice your little part in separating out the holy instant. |
| Tx:15.40 | You could live forever in the holy instant, beginning | now and reaching to eternity, but for a very simple reason. Do not |
| Tx:15.53 | God knows you | now. He remembers nothing, having always known you exactly as He |
| Tx:15.53 | remembers nothing, having always known you exactly as He knows you | now. The holy instant parallels His knowing by bringing all |
| Tx:15.85 | this there will be no delay when you are ready for it. God is ready | now, but you are not. |
| Tx:15.93 | is, and every sacrifice you ask of yourself, you ask of me. Learn | now that sacrifice of any kind is nothing but a limitation imposed on |
| Tx:15.94 | season holy, for it is in your power to make the time of Christ be | now. |
| Tx:16.16 | for truth? For you have come too near to truth to renounce it | now, and you will yield to its compelling attraction. You can delay |
| Tx:16.16 | and you will yield to its compelling attraction. You can delay this | now but only a little while. The Host of God has called to you, and |
| Tx:16.31 | This is the last step in the readiness for God. Be not unwilling | now. You are too near, and you will cross the bridge in perfect |
| Tx:16.41 | almost recognized it. Turn with me firmly away from all illusions | now, and let nothing stand in the way of truth. We will take the last |
| Tx:16.65 | took to fix your minds so firmly on illusions. Delay will hurt you | now more than before only because you realize it is delay and that |
| Tx:16.67 | not back with longing on the travesty it made of your relationships. | Now no one need suffer, for you have come too far to yield to the |
| Tx:16.71 | it is. It has no meaning in the present, and if it means nothing | now, it cannot have any real meaning at all. How can you change the |
| Tx:16.75 | been uprooted and has disappeared. The stillness and the peace of | now enfolds you in perfect gentleness. Everything is gone except the |
| Tx:17.20 | past is made like the present. No longer does the past conflict with | now. This continuity extends the present by increasing its reality |
| Tx:17.24 | In brief, the past is | now your justification for entering into a continuing, unholy |
| Tx:17.24 | which the unholy alliance dictates are not perceived nor felt as | now. Yet the frame of reference to which the present is referred for |
| Tx:17.32 | You have but little difficulty | now in realizing that the thought system which the special |
| Tx:17.36 | to truth, you threaten truth with destruction. And your defense must | now be undertaken to keep truth whole. The power of Heaven, the love |
| Tx:17.40 | of Heaven and eternity grows more convincing as you look at it. And | now by real comparison a transformation of both pictures can at last |
| Tx:17.45 | unholy condition, your goal was all that seemed to give it meaning. | Now it seems to make no sense. Many relationships have been broken |
| Tx:17.46 | of the relationship is so apparent that they cannot coexist. Yet | now the goal will not be changed. Set firmly in the unholy |
| Tx:17.48 | goal be set for you. That was an act of faith. Do not abandon faith, | now that the rewards of faith are being introduced. If you believed |
| Tx:17.48 | the Holy Spirit was there to accept the relationship, why would you | now not still believe that He is there to purify what He has taken |
| Tx:17.48 | goal is set. And your relationship has sanity as its purpose. For | now you find yourselves in an insane relationship, recognized as such |
| Tx:17.49 | Now the ego counsels thus—substitute for this another relationship | |
| Tx:17.49 | areas of fantasy from each other to save your sanity. Hear not this | now! Have faith in Him Who answered you. He heard. Has He not been |
| Tx:17.49 | He heard. Has He not been very explicit in His answer? You are not | now wholly insane. Can you deny that He has given you a most explicit |
| Tx:17.49 | Can you deny that He has given you a most explicit statement? | Now He asks for faith a little longer, even in bewilderment. For this |
| Tx:17.49 | your faith emerge to bring you shining conviction. Abandon Him not | now, nor each other. This relationship has been reborn as holy. |
| Tx:17.50 | once sought for satisfaction and thought you found it. Forget not | now the misery you really found, and do not now breathe life into |
| Tx:17.50 | you found it. Forget not now the misery you really found, and do not | now breathe life into your failing egos. For your relationship has |
| Tx:17.51 | hand to walk together along a road far more familiar than you | now believe. Is it not certain that you will remember a goal |
| Tx:17.52 | in His blessing, and withhold not yours upon it. For all it needs | now is your blessing that you may see that in it rests salvation. |
| Tx:17.53 | grown dim in what seemed to be the light of the mistakes? You are | now entering upon a campaign to blame each other for the discomfort |
| Tx:17.55 | the purpose that has been accepted and the means as they stand | now which seems to make you suffer, but which makes Heaven glad. If |
| Tx:17.57 | it must be clear. The setting of the Holy Spirit's goal is general. | Now He will work with you to make it specific [for application is |
| Tx:17.57 | look beyond each situation in an understanding far broader than you | now possess. |
| Tx:17.59 | happen. No goal was set with which to bring the means in line. And | now the only judgment left to make is whether or not the ego likes it |
| Tx:17.60 | The false becomes the useless from this point of view. The situation | now has meaning, but only because the goal has made it meaningful. |
| Tx:17.76 | has been demonstrated has called for faith and has been given it. | Now it becomes a fact from which faith can no longer be withheld. The |
| Tx:17.78 | as yours. You have assumed your part in his redemption, and you are | now fully responsible to him. Fail him not now, for it has been given |
| Tx:17.78 | redemption, and you are now fully responsible to him. Fail him not | now, for it has been given you to realize what your lack of faith in |
| Tx:17.79 | change. And nothing that it needs to be forever changeless can you | now withhold from it. Your release is certain. Give as you have |
| Tx:18.4 | and subdivided and divided again, over and over, that it is | now almost impossible to perceive it once was one and still is what |
| Tx:18.27 | is this world's light. And fear must disappear before you | now. Be tempted not to snatch away the gift of faith you offered to |
| Tx:18.28 | reach it. And in your desire lies its accomplishment. Your desire is | now in complete accord with all the power of the Holy Spirit's will. |
| Tx:18.30 | You who are | now the bringers of salvation have the function of bringing light to |
| Tx:18.39 | is easy just because it asks nothing that you cannot give right | now. |
| Tx:18.46 | The power of joining and its blessing lie in the fact that it is | now impossible for either of you to experience fear alone or to |
| Tx:18.48 | him, or he without me. Yet it is wholly possible for us to share it | now. And so I choose this instant as the one to offer to the Holy |
| Tx:18.65 | It is always remembered or anticipated, but never experienced just | now. Only its past and future make it seem real. Time controls it |
| Tx:18.65 | as pain and nothing else and would be avoided. It has no attraction | now. Its whole attraction is imaginary and therefore must be thought |
| Tx:18.67 | together restores the universe to both of you. You are prepared. | Now you need but to remember you need do nothing. It would be far |
| Tx:18.67 | but to remember you need do nothing. It would be far more profitable | now merely to concentrate on this than to consider what you should |
| Tx:18.69 | from time. This is the way in which sin loses all attraction right | now. For here is time denied and past and future gone. Who need do |
| Tx:18.83 | would welcome you. He has waited long to give you this. Receive it | now of Him, for He would have you know Him. Only a little wall of |
| Tx:18.98 | the bright world of new and clean perception. There is your purpose | now. And it is there that peace awaits you. |
| Tx:19.10 | You do not use anything your brother has done before to condemn him | now. You freely choose to overlook his errors, looking past all |
| Tx:19.12 | free of all the guilt he laid upon himself. Faith sees him only | now because it looks not to the past to judge him, but would see in |
| Tx:19.27 | appeal. And suddenly you change its status from a sin to a mistake. | Now you will not repeat it; you will merely stop and let it go unless |
| Tx:19.33 | to Him and to each other. Your holy relationship has as its purpose | now the goal of proving this is impossible. Heaven has smiled upon |
| Tx:19.35 | Forget what you have seen and raise your eyes in faith to what you | now can see. The barriers to heaven will disappear before your holy |
| Tx:19.36 | have you look upon each other as yourself. Your relationship is | now a temple of healing—a place where all the weary ones can come |
| Tx:19.38 | in Him. He answered you and entered your relationship. Would you not | now return His graciousness and enter into a relationship with Him? |
| Tx:19.41 | barrier of sand still stands between you. Would you reinforce it | now? You are not asked to let it go for yourselves alone. Christ asks |
| Tx:19.45 | knows you well, as you know Heaven. No illusions stand between you | now. Look not upon the little wall of shadows. The sun has risen over |
| Tx:19.46 | can land and settle briefly upon anything, for it has no purpose | now. Before the Holy Spirit entered to abide with you, it seemed to |
| Tx:19.46 | the fixed and unchangeable dedication to sin and its results. | Now it is aimless, wandering pointlessly, causing no more than tiny |
| Tx:19.64 | limitless? The end of guilt is in your hands to give. Would you stop | now to look for guilt in each other? |
| Tx:19.95 | And | now you stand in terror before what you swore never to look upon. |
| Tx:19.95 | “protectors,” and your “home” will vanish. Nothing that you remember | now will you remember. |
| Tx:20.2 | in one hand and lilies in the other, uncertain which to give. Join | now with me and throw away the thorns, offering the lilies to replace |
| Tx:20.8 | offer me. And yet the thorns are gone. Look you still closer at them | now, and you will see your altar is no longer what it was. |
| Tx:20.9 | And what enables Him to see His purpose shine forth from every altar | now is yours as well as His. He sees no strangers, only dearly loved |
| Tx:20.11 | You have the vision | now to look past all illusions. It has been given you to see no |
| Tx:20.11 | and no obstacles to peace. The fear of God is nothing to you | now. Who is afraid to look upon illusions, knowing his savior stands |
| Tx:20.11 | has been carefully prepared for you, and it is ready to receive you | now. You will not see it with the body's eyes. Yet all you need you |
| Tx:20.12 | entirely to hear. You heard but knew not how to look nor where. And | now you know. In you the knowledge lies, ready to be unveiled and |
| Tx:20.14 | Son of God is risen from the past and has awakened to the present. | Now is he free, unlimited in his communion with all that is within |
| Tx:20.14 | is he free, unlimited in his communion with all that is within him. | Now are the lilies of his innocence untouched by guilt and perfectly |
| Tx:20.14 | is free to guide you safely through them and beyond. Walk with him | now rejoicing, for the savior from illusions has come to greet you |
| Tx:20.15 | released from crucifixion through your vision and free to lead you | now where he would be. He will not leave you nor forsake the savior |
| Tx:20.20 | should indeed be fearful. Yet it was you who made it merciless, and | now if mercilessness seems to look back at you, it can be corrected. |
| Tx:20.26 | us become impossible. You who were prisoners in separation are | now made free in Paradise. And here would I unite with you, my |
| Tx:20.27 | And where else would they go but where they will to be? Each of you | now will lead the other to the Father as surely as God created His |
| Tx:20.33 | enter here to learn its special function in the Holy Spirit's plan, | now that it shares His purpose. And as this purpose is fulfilled, a |
| Tx:20.42 | never changes. All that it ever held or will ever hold is here right | now. The past takes nothing from it, and the future will add no more. |
| Tx:20.44 | rests in his gentle hands in safety and in peace. Let us consider | now what he must learn, to share his Father's confidence in him. What |
| Tx:20.56 | but you are not immobilized. The holy instant is of greater value | now to you than its unholy seeming counterpart, and you have learned |
| Tx:20.59 | the sudden change in a relationship from sin to holiness should | now be almost over. To the extent you still experience it, you are |
| Tx:20.67 | Vision would not be necessary had judgment not been made. Desire | now its whole undoing, and it is done for you. |
| Tx:20.70 | what God willed and gave you shall be yours. This is your purpose | now, and the vision that makes it yours is ready to be given. You |
| Tx:21.7 | have. Listen and try to think if you remember what we will speak of | now. |
| Tx:21.12 | And | now the blind can see, for that same song they sing in honor of their |
| Tx:21.13 | Rejected yes, but not ambiguous. And if you choose against it | now, it will not be because it is obscure, but rather that this |
| Tx:21.18 | then, this little offering. Withhold it, and you keep the world as | now you see it. Give it away, and everything you see goes with it. |
| Tx:21.25 | confusion of cause and effect becomes inevitable. The purpose | now becomes to keep obscure the cause of the effect and make effect |
| Tx:21.35 | to vision, as all the means that once served sin are redirected | now toward holiness. For what you think is sin is limitation, and |
| Tx:21.40 | You gave perception and belief and faith from mind to body. Let them | now be given back to what produced them and can use them still to |
| Tx:21.43 | “fearful” question is one the ego never asks. And you who ask it | now are threatening the ego's whole defensive system too seriously |
| Tx:21.43 | truth. And your belief in sin has been already shaken, nor are you | now entirely unwilling to look within and see it not. |
| Tx:21.44 | past insanity and on to reason. And what your reason tells you | now, the ego would not hear. The Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted |
| Tx:21.44 | ego knows not of. No more did you. And yet this part with which you | now identify is not afraid to look upon itself. It knows no sin. How, |
| Tx:21.45 | the birth of freedom, the acceptance of release to come to you. And | now you recognize that it was not the ego that joined the Holy |
| Tx:21.47 | And | now the ego is afraid. Yet what it hears in terror, the other part |
| Tx:21.47 | world, brings to it hope of peace. For it remembers Heaven, and | now it sees that Heaven has come to earth at last, from which the |
| Tx:21.53 | accomplished. Therefore, what joined the Will of God must be in you | now, being eternal. You must have set aside a place in which the Holy |
| Tx:21.58 | question which the ego will never ask. Does not your reason tell you | now the question must have come from something that you do not know |
| Tx:21.83 | not see he does it. And if he sees his happiness as ever changing, | now this, now that, and now an elusive shadow attached to nothing, he |
| Tx:21.83 | he does it. And if he sees his happiness as ever changing, now this, | now that, and now an elusive shadow attached to nothing, he does |
| Tx:21.83 | if he sees his happiness as ever changing, now this, now that, and | now an elusive shadow attached to nothing, he does decide against it. |
| Tx:21.90 | is already answered and what you ask for given. Here is the future | now, for time is powerless because of your desire for what will never |
| Tx:22.4 | [And here is sight of differences transformed to vision.] And reason | now can lead you to the logical conclusion of your union. It must |
| Tx:22.4 | as you reached out beyond the body to let yourselves be joined. And | now the sameness which you saw extends and finally removes all sense |
| Tx:22.11 | ancient than the old illusion that it has replaced, is like a baby | now in its rebirth. Yet in this infant is your vision returned to |
| Tx:22.20 | but what they make of it is not the same. The ego will assure you | now that it is impossible for you to see no guilt in anyone. And if |
| Tx:22.21 | Creator wills is possible, but what you made believes it is not so. | Now must you choose between yourself and an illusion of yourself. Not |
| Tx:22.22 | Forsake not | now each other. For you who are the same will not decide alone nor |
| Tx:22.38 | you cannot go ahead. You must go either one way or the other. For | now if you go straight ahead, the way you went before you reached the |
| Tx:22.38 | purpose of coming this far was to decide which branch you will take | now. The way you came no longer matters. It can no longer serve. No |
| Tx:22.40 | a solid block, nor realize how thin the drapery that separates you | now. Yet it is almost over in your awareness, and peace has reached |
| Tx:22.41 | and lonely journey where you walked alone. The gates of Heaven, open | now for you, will you now open to the sorrowful. And none who looks |
| Tx:22.41 | you walked alone. The gates of Heaven, open now for you, will you | now open to the sorrowful. And none who looks upon the Christ in you |
| Tx:22.41 | veil which you will bring to light the tired eyes of those as weary | now as once you were. How thankful will they be to see you come among |
| Tx:22.55 | Heaven that you fill again with the Eternal Light you bring shines | now on you. The means of sinlessness can know no fear because they |
| Tx:22.56 | that you give the Holy Spirit is service to yourself. You who are | now His means must love all that He loves. And what you bring is your |
| Tx:23.3 | everything from the illusion of harmfulness. And what seemed harmful | now stands shining in their innocence, released from sin and fear, |
| Tx:23.6 | the world sparkle and shine and everything you once thought sinful | now will be reinterpreted as part of Heaven. How beautiful it is to |
| Tx:23.10 | over. The journey's end is at the place of peace. Would you not | now accept the peace offered you here? This “enemy” you fought as an |
| Tx:23.23 | this seems to do to the relationship between the Father and the Son. | Now it appears that they can never be one again. For one must always |
| Tx:23.23 | be one again. For one must always be condemned and by the other. | Now are they different and enemies. And their relationship is one of |
| Tx:23.23 | the other strong by his defeat. And fear of God and of each other | now appears as sensible, made real by what the Son of God has done |
| Tx:23.25 | See how the fear of God is reinforced by this third principle. | Now it becomes impossible to turn to Him for help in misery. For now |
| Tx:23.25 | Now it becomes impossible to turn to Him for help in misery. For | now He has become the “enemy” Who caused it and to Whom appeal is |
| Tx:23.25 | aspect seems to be at war with Him and justified in its attack. And | now is conflict made inevitable and beyond the help of God. And now |
| Tx:23.25 | And now is conflict made inevitable and beyond the help of God. And | now salvation must remain impossible because the savior has become |
| Tx:23.29 | And | now there is a vague unanswered question, not yet “explained.” What |
| Tx:23.29 | and cunning enemy? It must be what you want but never found. And | now you “understand” the reason why you found it not. For it was |
| Tx:23.29 | the cover for his guilt, the hiding place for what belongs to you. | Now must his body be destroyed and sacrificed that you may have that |
| Tx:23.32 | then must its opposite, which was the truth before, be madness | now. Such a reversal, completely turned around, with madness sanity, |
| Tx:23.50 | in any form is not your will. The overlooking of the battleground is | now your purpose. |
| Tx:24.3 | love is gone because you asked a substitute to take its place. And | now must war, the substitute for peace, come with the one alternative |
| Tx:24.4 | decisions have been made and kept hidden to become beliefs, | now given power to direct all subsequent decisions. Mistake you not |
| Tx:24.8 | is lost to you. God gave you both Himself, and to remember this is | now the only purpose that you share. And so it is the only one you |
| Tx:24.10 | relationship has been made clean of special goals. And would you | now defeat the goal of holiness that Heaven gave it? What perspective |
| Tx:24.20 | You have come far along the way of truth—too far to falter | now. Just one step more and every vestige of the fear of God will |
| Tx:24.25 | bring you peace and joy of any kind? Through this despair you travel | now, yet it is but illusion of despair. The death of specialness is |
| Tx:24.34 | attraction. Here is death enthroned as savior; crucifixion is | now redemption, and salvation can only mean destruction of the world, |
| Tx:24.46 | Yet is He quiet, for He knows that love is in you | now and safely held in you by that same hand that holds your |
| Tx:24.49 | and turn to dust. In him is your assurance God is here and with you | now. While he is what he is, you can be sure that God is knowable and |
| Tx:24.60 | Now you are merely asked that you pursue another goal with far less | |
| Tx:24.62 | of God's creation that takes the place of yours? And where are they, | now that the host of God has found another son which he prefers to |
| Tx:25.7 | Christ from its beholders. And both of you stand there, before Him | now, to let Him draw aside the veil that seems to keep you separate |
| Tx:25.31 | what he is to you will make this choice your future? For you make it | now, the instant when all time becomes a means to reach a goal. Make |
| Tx:25.35 | think what it would do for you. Your “evil” thoughts that haunt you | now will seem increasingly remote and far away from you. And they go |
| Tx:25.38 | For you have hurt yourself and made your Self your “enemy.” And | now you must believe you are not you but something alien to yourself |
| Tx:25.58 | Now must he question this because the form of the alternative is one | |
| Tx:25.71 | by being separate and apart from love. And what but vengeance | now can help and save, while love stands feebly by with helpless |
| Tx:25.78 | that sin be kept in place. You mean that truth has greater value | now than all illusions. And you recognize that truth must be revealed |
| Tx:26.11 | is the problem gone, because it was an error in perception which | now has been corrected. One mistake is not more difficult for Him to |
| Tx:26.24 | is undone by change of purpose in what once was specialness and | now is union? All illusions are but one. And in the recognition this |
| Tx:26.37 | past that he may hear a fact in what is there to hear where he is | now? And how much can his own delusions about time and place affect a |
| Tx:26.37 | wish that what is gone could be made real again and seen as here and | now in place of what is really now and here. Is this a hindrance to |
| Tx:26.37 | made real again and seen as here and now in place of what is really | now and here. Is this a hindrance to the truth the past is gone and |
| Tx:26.39 | a memory of time gone by? [This course will teach you only what is | now.] A dreadful instant in a distant past, now perfectly corrected, |
| Tx:26.39 | teach you only what is now.] A dreadful instant in a distant past, | now perfectly corrected, is of no concern nor value. Let the dead and |
| Tx:26.39 | peacefully forgotten. Resurrection has come to take its place. And | now you are a part of resurrection, not of death. No past illusions |
| Tx:26.40 | that he chose to die instead of live. And will you not forgive him | now because he made an error in the past that God remembers not and |
| Tx:26.40 | made an error in the past that God remembers not and is not there? | Now you are shifting back and forth between the past and present. |
| Tx:26.41 | is past and gone and hinder not the true existence of the here and | now. The real world is the second part of the hallucination time and |
| Tx:26.42 | of time is but the mad belief that what is over is still here and | now. |
| Tx:26.69 | And you cannot believe that trust would settle every problem | now. Thus do you think it safer to remain a little careful and a |
| Tx:26.69 | perception you cannot conceive of gaining what forgiveness offers | now. The interval you think lies in between the giving and receiving |
| Tx:26.71 | Yet space between you is apparent | now and cannot be perceived in future time. No more can it be |
| Tx:26.71 | But present joining is your dread. Who can feel desolation except | now? A future cause as yet has no effects. And therefore must it be |
| Tx:26.72 | effects unless he thought they had been caused and judged disastrous | now? Belief in sin arouses fear and, like its cause, is looking |
| Tx:26.72 | is looking forward, looking back but overlooking what is here and | now. Yet only here and now its cause must be if its effects already |
| Tx:26.72 | looking back but overlooking what is here and now. Yet only here and | now its cause must be if its effects already have been judged as |
| Tx:26.72 | is it protected and kept separate from healing. For a miracle is | now. It stands already here in present grace, within the only |
| Tx:26.73 | has in it all effects that you will see. They can be looked at | now. Why wait till they unfold in time and fear they may not come, |
| Tx:26.74 | content with sighing and with “reasoning” you do not understand it | now but will some day. And then its meaning will be clear. This is |
| Tx:26.74 | in which disaster strikes, to be perceived as “good” some day but | now in form of pain. This is a sacrifice of now, which could not be |
| Tx:26.74 | as “good” some day but now in form of pain. This is a sacrifice of | now, which could not be the cost the Holy Spirit asks for what He |
| Tx:26.76 | meaning and is not your just reward. For you have cause for freedom | now. What profits freedom in a prisoner's form? Why should |
| Tx:26.76 | and what it is cannot be recognized. The Holy Spirit's purpose | now is yours. Should not His happiness be yours as well? |
| Tx:26.79 | white and sparkling in the summer sun. What was a place of death has | now become a living temple in a world of light. Because of Them. It |
| Tx:26.79 | and rendered desolate. What hate has wrought have They undone. And | now you stand on ground so holy Heaven leans to join with it and make |
| Tx:26.84 | Now is the temple of the Living God rebuilt as host again to Him by | |
| Tx:26.84 | that They are welcome made at last. Where stood a cross stands | now the risen Christ, and ancient scars are healed within His sight. |
| Tx:26.84 | the Father and the Son return to what is Theirs and will forever be. | Now is the Holy Spirit's purpose done. For They have come! For They |
| Tx:26.85 | When you perceive it as unfair, you think that a response of anger | now is just. And thus you see what is the same as different. |
| Tx:27.2 | come to him in righteousness. The unjust vengeance that you suffer | now belongs to him, and when it rests on him are you set free. Wish |
| Tx:27.5 | it witnessed to the guilt in him which you perceived and loved. | Now in the hands made gentle by His touch, the Holy Spirit lays a |
| Tx:27.10 | is it dead. It stands apart from all experience of fear or love. For | now it witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being open and the mind |
| Tx:27.10 | being open and the mind made free again to choose what it is for. | Now is it not condemned, but waiting for a purpose to be given that |
| Tx:27.30 | by the half it canceled out, and so they both are gone. And | now he stands for nothing. Symbols which but represent ideas that |
| Tx:27.33 | it is functionless. Yet in the learning interval it has a use which | now you fear, but yet will love. |
| Tx:27.37 | must be that time is not involved, and every problem can be answered | now. Yet it must also be that in your state of mind solution is |
| Tx:27.63 | Now you are being shown you can escape. All that is needed is you | |
| Tx:27.74 | has come to lighten up your sleeping face. The sleep is peaceful | now, for these are happy dreams. |
| Tx:27.81 | too ridiculous for anything but to be laughed away. How serious they | now appear to be! And no one can remember when they would have met |
| Tx:27.83 | world you see depicts exactly what you thought you did. Except that | now you think that what you did is being done to you. The guilt for |
| Tx:27.90 | you separate from the world and kept your brother separate from you. | Now need you but to learn that both of you are innocent or guilty. |
| Tx:28.2 | its past tense. It is perception of the past as if it were occurring | now and still were there to see. Memory, like perception, is a skill |
| Tx:28.4 | that it is hard for you to realize it is a skill that can remember | now. The limitations on remembering the world imposes on it are as |
| Tx:28.6 | you make use of it, and so it is a way to hold the past against the | now. |
| Tx:28.7 | what they are for. Let not the cause that you would give them | now be what it was which made them what they were or seemed to be. Be |
| Tx:28.7 | be pardoned from. And see instead the new effects of cause accepted | now, with consequences here. They will surprise you with their |
| Tx:28.11 | the memory of God returns to them. Their own remembering is quiet | now, and what has come to take its place will not be wholly |
| Tx:28.13 | resound throughout the stillness, yet disturb it not. And what is | now remembered is not fear, but rather is the cause that fear was |
| Tx:28.14 | Now is the Son of God at last aware of present Cause and Its benign | |
| Tx:28.14 | Son of God at last aware of present Cause and Its benign effects. | Now does he understand what he has made is causeless, making no |
| Tx:28.25 | as friends with merciful intent. Their enmity is seen as causeless | now, because they did not make it. And you can accept the role of |
| Tx:28.25 | role of maker of their hate, because you see that it has no effects. | Now are you freed from this much of the dream; the world is neutral, |
| Tx:28.38 | There is a way of finding certainty right here and | now. Refuse to be a part of fearful dreams whatever form they take, |
| Tx:29.5 | that lies not within itself. And herein lies its power over you. For | now you think that it determines when you meet and limits your |
| Tx:29.5 | limits your ability to make communion with each other's mind. And | now it tells you where to go and how to go there, what is feasible |
| Tx:29.11 | be you are healed. And being healed, the power to heal must also | now be yours. The miracle is not a separate thing which happens |
| Tx:29.11 | Nor is it in itself a cause. But where its cause is must it be. | Now is it caused, though not as yet perceived. And its effects are |
| Tx:29.11 | And its effects are there, though not yet seen. Look inward | now, and you will not behold a reason for regret but cause indeed for |
| Tx:29.13 | His gifts came with Him. He has laid them at your feet and asks you | now that you will look on them and take them for your own. He needs |
| Tx:29.14 | You do not see how much you | now can give because of everything you have received. Yet He Who |
| Tx:29.14 | on them, you will believe His Presence must be there. For what you | now can do could not be done without the love and grace His Presence |
| Tx:29.24 | because you gave your light to him to save him from the dark. And | now the light in you must be as bright as shines in him. This is the |
| Tx:29.41 | purpose ended; it is gone. And where it once held seeming sway is | now restored the function God established for His Son in full |
| Tx:29.67 | things have all been put away. And what was once a dream of judgment | now has changed into a dream where all is joy because that is the |
| Tx:29.67 | for time is almost over. And the forms which enter in the dream are | now perceived as brothers, not in judgment but in love. |
| Tx:30.1 | The new beginning | now becomes the focus of the curriculum. The goal is clear, but now |
| Tx:30.1 | now becomes the focus of the curriculum. The goal is clear, but | now you need specific methods for attaining it. The speed by which it |
| Tx:30.1 | you, but they are more ideas than rules of thought to you as yet. So | now we need to practice them awhile, until they are the rules by |
| Tx:30.1 | they are the rules by which you live. We seek to make them habits | now, so you will have them ready for whatever need. |
| Tx:30.6 | This is your major problem | now. You still make up your mind and then decide to ask what you |
| Tx:30.10 | But there will still be times when you have judged already. | Now the answer will provoke attack unless you quickly straighten out |
| Tx:30.10 | This means you have decided by yourself and cannot see the question. | Now you need a quick restorative before you ask. |
| Tx:30.16 | At least I can decide I do not like what I feel | now. |
| Tx:30.21 | Now you have reached the turning point, because it has occurred to | |
| Tx:30.21 | your happiness depends on being right. But this much reason have you | now attained—you would be better off if you were wrong. |
| Tx:30.24 | Now you have changed your mind about the day and have remembered what | |
| Tx:30.27 | Thus you | now can ask a question that makes sense, and so the answer will make |
| Tx:30.34 | never lose your will when He gave you His perfect answer. Hear it | now that you may be reminded of His love and learn your will. God |
| Tx:30.35 | born into the world, and thus the rule of fear established there. | Now hear God speak to you through Him Who is His Voice and yours as |
| Tx:30.37 | heal him, and because you have decided with him, he is healed. And | now is God forgiven, for you chose to look upon your brother as a |
| Tx:30.50 | him. And he is afraid because he thought the rules protected him. | Now must he learn the boxes and the bears did not deceive him, broke |
| Tx:30.58 | grasped and welcomed, and the means by which it can be gained can | now be understood. The world becomes a place of hope because its only |
| Tx:30.64 | For He Whose hand you hold was waiting but for you to join Him. | Now that you have come, would He delay in showing you the way that He |
| Tx:30.82 | script you write for every minute in the day, and all that happens | now means something else. You take away another element, and every |
| Tx:30.89 | you see will change, and yet you thought it real before, and | now you think it real again. Reality is thus reduced to form and |
| Tx:31.1 | simple is salvation! All it says is what was never true is not true | now and never will be. The impossible has not occurred and can have |
| Tx:31.3 | is no greater power in the world. The world was made by it and even | now depends on nothing else. The lessons you have taught yourselves |
| Tx:31.5 | to demonstrate, and you have learned what it was made to teach. | Now does your ancient overlearning stand implacable before the Voice |
| Tx:31.8 | world has always made, but you had not perceived it as it was. And | now you see you were mistaken. You had been deceived by forms the |
| Tx:31.12 | thoughts of evil or of good that ever crossed your mind of anyone. | Now do [you] know him not. But you are free to learn of him and learn |
| Tx:31.12 | him not. But you are free to learn of him and learn of him anew. | Now is he born again to you, and you are born again to him without |
| Tx:31.12 | to him without the past that sentenced him to die, and you with him. | Now is he free to live, as you are free because an ancient learning |
| Tx:31.36 | who still believe there is another answer to be found. Learn | now, without despair, there is no hope of answer in the world. But do |
| Tx:31.36 | No longer look for hope where there is none. Make fast your learning | now, and understand you but waste time unless you go beyond what you |
| Tx:31.48 | ensures your brother is condemned eternally. For what you are has | now become his sin. For this is no forgiveness possible. No longer |
| Tx:31.50 | seek to go beyond its roads nor realize the way you see yourself. | Now must the Holy Spirit find a way to help you see this concept of |
| Tx:31.50 | else. For otherwise you would be asked to make exchange of what you | now believe for total loss of self, and greater terror would arise in |
| Tx:31.51 | not yet perceive that this is what you think, you surely learned by | now that you behave as if it were. Does he react for you? And did he |
| Tx:31.55 | by your decision. But this gain is paid in almost equal loss, for | now you stand accused of guilt for what your brother is. And you must |
| Tx:31.55 | him in the image of your own. While only he was treacherous before, | now must you be condemned along with him. |
| Tx:31.63 | as he was an instant previous, nor will he be the same as he is | now an instant hence. Who could have trust where so much change is |
| Tx:31.71 | given you. For your forgiveness, offered unto him, has been accepted | now for both of you. |
| Tx:31.72 | is asked. On its behalf, remember what the concept of yourself which | now you hold has brought you in its wake, and welcome the glad |
| Tx:31.73 | The concept of yourself which | now you hold would guarantee your function here remain forever |
| Tx:31.75 | beholds this One. For there is light where darkness was before, and | now the veil is lifted from his sight. |
| Tx:31.87 | presented once again, so where you made a faulty choice before, you | now can make a better one and thus escape all pain which what you |
| Tx:31.97 | And | now we say “Amen.” For Christ has come to dwell in the abode You set |
| W1:I.3 | two sections, the first dealing with the undoing of what you see | now and the second with the restoration of sight. It is recommended |
| W1:1.1 | Now look slowly around you, and practice applying this idea very | |
| W1:3.2 | all past associations, to see things exactly as they appear to you | now, and to realize how little you really understand about them. It |
| W1:9.4 | I do not see this typewriter as it is | now. I do not see this key as it is now. I do not see this telephone |
| W1:9.4 | not see this typewriter as it is now. I do not see this key as it is | now. I do not see this telephone as it is now. |
| W1:9.4 | not see this key as it is now. I do not see this telephone as it is | now. |
| W1:9.6 | I do not see that coat rack as it is | now. I do not see that face as it is now. I do not see that door as |
| W1:9.6 | not see that coat rack as it is now. I do not see that face as it is | now. I do not see that door as it is now. |
| W1:9.6 | I do not see that face as it is now. I do not see that door as it is | now. |
| W1:10.2 | no link is made overtly with the things around you. The emphasis is | now on the lack of reality of what you think you think. |
| W1:10.3 | and then stressed their past rather than their present status. | Now we are emphasizing that the presence of these “thoughts” means |
| W1:10.5 | This idea will help to release me from all that I | now believe. |
| W1:10.9 | This idea will help to release me from all that I | now believe. |
| W1:12.8 | Beneath your words is written the Word of God. The truth upsets you | now, but when your words have been erased, you will see His. That is |
| W1:15.2 | little edges of light around the same familiar objects which you see | now. That is the beginning of real vision. You can be certain that |
| W1:19.5 | subjects for the practice period should be quite familiar to you by | now and will no longer be repeated each day, although it will |
| W1:20.2 | You want to be happy. You want peace. You do not have them | now because your mind is totally undisciplined, and you cannot |
| W1:20.2 | between joy and sorrow, pleasure and pain, love and fear. You are | now learning how to tell them apart. And great indeed will be your |
| W1:20.4 | idea also tacitly implies the recognition that you do not see | now. Therefore, as you repeat the idea, you are stating that you are |
| W1:23.4 | Vision already holds a replacement for everything you think you see | now. Loveliness can light your images and so transform them that you |
| W1:25.3 | Another way of describing the goals you | now perceive as valuable is to say that they are all concerned with |
| W1:26.1 | is this law that will ultimately save you. But you are misusing it | now. You must therefore learn how it can be used for your own best |
| W1:28.1 | is not our concern here. If you are willing at least to make them | now, you have started on the way to keeping them. And we are still at |
| W1:29.3 | with love, appreciation, and open-mindedness. You do not see them | now. Would you know what is in them? Nothing is as it appears to you. |
| W1:29.4 | Our six two-minute practice periods for today should follow a | now familiar pattern: begin with repeating the idea to yourself, and |
| W1:30.3 | and trying to realize that the idea applies to everything you do see | now or could see now if it were within the range of your sight. |
| W1:30.3 | that the idea applies to everything you do see now or could see | now if it were within the range of your sight. |
| W1:34.6 | I could see peace in this situation instead of what I | now see in it. |
| W1:35.1 | Today's idea does not describe the way you see yourself | now. It does, however, describe what vision will show you. It is |
| W1:39.4 | is the answer to every question that was ever asked, is being asked | now, or will be asked in the future. Your holiness means the end of |
| W1:44.5 | you practice in this form, you leave behind everything that you | now believe and all the thoughts which you have made up. Properly |
| W1:45.9 | you thought with God in the beginning. They are there in your mind | now, completely unchanged. They will always be in your mind, exactly |
| W1:47.6 | Now try to slip past all concerns related to your own sense of | |
| W1:R1.6 | statements nor to apply the ideas as was suggested then. We are | now emphasizing the relationships among the first fifty of the ideas |
| W1:51.2 | that I recognize this, that I may learn to see. What I think I see | now is taking the place of vision. I must let it go by realizing that |
| W1:51.4 | what can be seen and understood and loved. I can exchange what I see | now for this merely by being willing to do so. Is not this a better |
| W1:52.5 | [9] I see nothing as it is | now. If I see nothing as it is now, it can truly be said that I see |
| W1:52.5 | [9] I see nothing as it is now. If I see nothing as it is | now, it can truly be said that I see nothing. I can see only what is |
| W1:52.5 | now, it can truly be said that I see nothing. I can see only what is | now. The choice is not whether to see the past or the present: it is |
| W1:52.5 | whether to see or not. What I have chosen to see has cost me vision. | Now I would choose again that I may see. |
| W1:53.4 | it the illusion of reality, and have suffered from my belief in it. | Now I choose to withdraw this belief and place my trust in reality. |
| W1:55.2 | [21] I am determined to see things differently. What I see | now are but signs of disease, disaster, and death. This cannot be |
| W1:55.4 | and joy. It is this I choose to see in place of what I look on | now. |
| W1:56.4 | and guarantees its continuance. While I see the world as I see it | now, truth cannot enter my awareness. I would let the door behind |
| W1:59.5 | Him. I have tried to define what seeing is, and I have been wrong. | Now it is given me to understand that God is the Light in which I |
| W1:60.4 | I can see it! It will not look anything like what I imagine I see | now. Everyone and everything I see will lean toward me to bless me. I |
| W1:62.2 | having denied your Identity by attacking creation and its Creator. | Now you are learning how to remember the truth. For this, attack must |
| W1:65.14 | and sometimes keep them open and look about you. It is what you see | now that will be totally changed when you accept today's idea |
| W1:68.7 | Determine | now to see all these people as friends. Say to them all collectively, |
| W1:69.1 | is lifted, you are released with him. Share your salvation | now with him who stood beside you when you were in hell. He is your |
| W1:69.4 | Very quietly | now, with your eyes closed, try to let go of all the content which |
| W1:69.6 | remembering only how much you want to reach the light in you today— | now. Determine to go past the clouds. Reach out and touch them in |
| W1:70.12 | Now we will try again to reach the light in you, which is where your | |
| W1:72.9 | you, locked away from your awareness by the body's limitations. | Now we are going to try to see this differently. |
| W1:72.11 | plan for us is. We are therefore attacking what we do not recognize. | Now we are going to try to lay judgment aside and ask what God's plan |
| W1:72.14 | We have used our grievances to close our eyes and stop our ears. | Now we would see and hear and learn. “What is salvation, Father?” Ask |
| W1:73.11 | of the Son of God from hell and from all idle wishes. His will is | now restored to his awareness. He is willing this very day to look |
| W1:75.2 | ending to your long dream of disaster. There are no dark dreams | now. The light has come. Today the time of light begins for you and |
| W1:75.4 | rises before us in gladness, to be seen at last. Sight is given us, | now that the light has come. |
| W1:75.7 | have made. You have forgiven the world today. You can look upon it | now as if you never saw it before. You do not know yet what it looks |
| W1:75.9 | the gift of sight to the forgiving. Believe He will not fail you | now. You have forgiven the world. He will be with you as you watch |
| W1:78.7 | in this role. We will attempt to hold him in our mind, first as you | now consider him. We will review his faults, the difficulties you |
| W1:78.11 | Be very quiet | now and look upon your shining savior. No dark grievances obscure the |
| W1:79.3 | That is the position in which you find yourselves | now. You have the answer, but you are still uncertain about what the |
| W1:80.5 | Now let the peace that your acceptance brings be given you. Close | |
| W1:R2.1 | We are | now ready for another review. We will begin where our last review |
| W1:89.2 | grievances, which are but illusions that hide the miracles beyond. | Now I would accept only what the laws of God entitle me to have that |
| W1:92.9 | in, for the peace of God is where your Self, His Son, is waiting | now to meet itself again and be as one. |
| W1:93.2 | have bowed down to idols made of dust—all this is true by what you | now believe. |
| W1:94.5 | Now try to reach the Son of God in you. This is the Self that never | |
| W1:94.6 | that it will be revealed to all who ask for it. You are asking | now. You cannot fail because He cannot fail. |
| W1:95.4 | if it undertakes extended attempts. You have surely realized this by | now. You have seen the extent of your lack of mental discipline and |
| W1:96.6 | itself as helpless, limited, and weak. Dissociated from its function | now, it thinks it is alone and separate, attacked by armies massed |
| W1:96.6 | armies massed against itself and hiding in the body's frail support. | Now must it reconcile unlike with like, for this is what it thinks |
| W1:99.1 | the impossible which has occurred, resulting in a state of conflict | now between what is and what could never be. |
| W1:99.2 | Truth and illusions both are equal | now, for both have happened. The impossible becomes the thing you |
| W1:99.7 | Salvation is your function with the One to Whom the plan was given. | Now are you entrusted with this plan, along with Him. He has one |
| W1:100.9 | Now let us try to find that joy which proves to us and all the world | |
| W1:100.9 | us. It is your function that you find it here and that you find it | now. For this you came. Let this one be the day that you succeed! |
| W1:100.10 | He will be there. And you can reach Him | now. What could you rather look upon in place of Him Who waits that |
| W1:101.10 | Today escape from madness. You are set on freedom's road, and | now today's idea brings wings to speed you on and hope to go still |
| W1:102.1 | that it buys you what you want. Yet this belief is surely shaken | now, at least enough to let you question it and to suspect it really |
| W1:102.5 | God's Will for happiness for me, and I accept it as my function | now. |
| W1:102.7 | minute rests, pause frequently today to tell yourself that you have | now accepted happiness as your one function. And be sure that you are |
| W1:104.3 | These are the gifts which are within us | now, for they are timeless. And we need not wait to have them. They |
| W1:104.3 | have them. They belong to us today. Therefore we will to have them | now and know in choosing them in place of what we made we but unite |
| W1:105.9 | and let your mind be free of all that would prevent success today. | Now are you ready to accept the gift of peace and joy which God has |
| W1:105.9 | ready to accept the gift of peace and joy which God has given you. | Now are you ready to experience the joy and peace you have denied |
| W1:105.9 | you ready to experience the joy and peace you have denied yourself. | Now you can say, “God's peace and joy are mine,” for you have given |
| W1:106.8 | Today we practice giving, not the way you understand it | now, but as it is. Each hour's exercises should begin with this |
| W1:107.3 | a hundred times and then be multiplied another hundred more. And | now you have a hint, not more than just the faintest intimation of |
| W1:107.4 | are nowhere. They cannot be found, for truth is everywhere forever | now. |
| W1:107.7 | Truth does not come and go nor shift nor change, in this appearance | now and then in that, evading capture and escaping grasp. It does not |
| W1:108.1 | the Thought behind it will appear instead, to take its place. And | now we are at peace forever, for the dream is over now. |
| W1:108.1 | its place. And now we are at peace forever, for the dream is over | now. |
| W1:108.9 | and to receive are one in truth. I will receive what I am giving | now. |
| W1:108.13 | understood from this time on, and we will make much faster progress | now. Think of the exercises for today as quick advances in your |
| W1:109.4 | hear another voice but yours because you gave your voice to God and | now you rest in Him and let Him speak through you. |
| W1:109.6 | and thankfully accept its healing. No more fearful dreams will come | now that you rest in God. Take time today to slip away from dreams |
| W1:109.8 | thing there is comes closer to all worn and tired minds, too weary | now to go their way alone. And they will hear the bird begin to sing |
| W1:R3.14 | how little you have learned. Do not forget how much you can learn | now. Do not forget your Father's need of you as you review these |
| W1:121.7 | hell through you and turns to you imploringly for Heaven here and | now. It has no hope, but you become its hope. And as its hope, do you |
| W1:121.11 | Now close your eyes and see him in your mind and look at him a while. | |
| W1:121.12 | you learned to see around your former “enemy” to him. Perceive him | now as more than friend to you, for in that light his holiness shows |
| W1:121.12 | your “enemy” and friend unite in blessing you with what you gave. | Now are you one with them and they with you. Now have you been |
| W1:121.12 | you with what you gave. Now are you one with them and they with you. | Now have you been forgiven by yourself. |
| W1:122.7 | Do not turn away in aimless wandering again. Accept salvation | now. It is the gift of God and not the world. The world can give no |
| W1:122.10 | reached the turning point at which the road becomes far easier. And | now the way is short that yet we travel. We are close indeed to the |
| W1:122.12 | and you will see another world arise you have no words to picture. | Now we walk directly into light, and we receive the gifts which have |
| W1:123.2 | A day devoted | now to gratitude will add the benefit of some insight into the real |
| W1:124.6 | times as yet to come, as easily as in the ones who walk beside them | now. Their thoughts are timeless and apart from distance as apart |
| W1:124.7 | that we can save and heal accordingly. We have accepted and we | now would give, for we would keep the gifts our Father gave. Today we |
| W1:126.1 | by which salvation comes to you and would not hesitate to use it | now. |
| W1:126.12 | to myself. The Help I need to learn that this is true is with me | now. And I will trust in Him. |
| W1:127.7 | this. For 15 minutes twice today escape from every law in which you | now believe. Open your mind and rest. The world that seems to hold |
| W1:127.10 | aside the world they thought was made in hate to be love's enemy. | Now are they all made free along with us. Now are they all our |
| W1:127.10 | hate to be love's enemy. Now are they all made free along with us. | Now are they all our brothers in God's Love. |
| W1:129.5 | yet how near are you when you exchange it for the world you want. | Now is the last step certain; now you stand an instant's space away |
| W1:129.5 | exchange it for the world you want. Now is the last step certain; | now you stand an instant's space away from timelessness. Here can you |
| W1:129.11 | Now do we understand there is no loss, for we have seen its opposite | |
| W1:131.7 | the Will of God be in the past or yet to happen? What He wills is | now, without a past and wholly futureless. It is as far removed from |
| W1:131.9 | He is here because He wills to be, and what He wills is present | now beyond the reach of time. |
| W1:131.15 | it is this request you make today. Nothing but this has any meaning | now; no other goal is valued now nor sought; nothing before this door |
| W1:131.15 | today. Nothing but this has any meaning now; no other goal is valued | now nor sought; nothing before this door you really want, and only |
| W1:132.2 | is free to change his mind, and all his thoughts change with it. | Now the source of thought has shifted, for to change your mind means |
| W1:132.3 | thoughts of seeking what you do not want to find. The present | now remains the only time. Here in the present is the world set free. |
| W1:132.8 | are prepared to learn there is no world and can accept the lesson | now. Their readiness will bring the lesson to them in some form which |
| W1:132.10 | A lesson earlier repeated once must | now be stressed again, for it contains the firm foundation for |
| W1:134.9 | Now are you free to follow in the way your true forgiveness opens up | |
| W1:134.11 | dream by understanding what he thought he saw was never there. And | now he cannot feel that all escape has been denied to him. |
| W1:134.18 | Let him be freed from all the thoughts you had of sin in him. And | now you are prepared for freedom. If you have been practicing thus |
| W1:135.17 | its choice of what will happen. And it does not see that here and | now is everything it needs to guarantee a future quite unlike the |
| W1:135.27 | And you rise again from what was seeming death and hopelessness. | Now is the light of hope reborn in you, for now you come without |
| W1:135.27 | death and hopelessness. Now is the light of hope reborn in you, for | now you come without defense to learn the part for you within the |
| W1:136.8 | mind and all your world appears to totter and prepare to fall. | Now are you sick that truth may go away and threaten your |
| W1:136.14 | For it lets you think what God has given you is not the truth right | now, as it must be. The thoughts of God are quite apart from time. |
| W1:136.19 | Now is the body healed because the source of sickness has been opened | |
| W1:136.20 | and drink, or any laws you made it serve before. You need do nothing | now to make it well, for sickness has become impossible. |
| W1:137.16 | take the place of all the foolish thoughts that ever were imagined. | Now we come together to make well all that was sick and offer |
| W1:138.7 | choice that time was made to help us make. Such is its holy purpose, | now transformed from the intent you gave it, that it be a means for |
| W1:138.9 | are open to correction as the truth dismisses them as causeless. | Now are they without effects. They cannot be concealed because their |
| W1:138.11 | is real, is flimsy and transparent in the light. It holds no terror | now, for what was made enormous, vengeful, pitiless with hate demands |
| W1:138.11 | pitiless with hate demands obscurity for fear to be invested there. | Now it is recognized as but a foolish, trivial mistake. |
| W1:138.12 | we reaffirm the choice that we have made each hour in between. And | now we give the last five minutes of our waking day to the decision |
| W1:138.13 | Heaven is the decision I must make. I make it | now and will not change my mind, because it is the only thing I want. |
| W1:140.1 | One belief in sickness takes another form, and so the patient | now perceives himself as well. |
| W1:140.4 | makes the sickness possible. And that is cure indeed. For sickness | now is gone, with nothing left to which it can return. |
| W1:140.11 | delay the time when we can hear our Father speak to us. We hear Him | now. We come to Him today. |
| W1:R4.1 | Now we review again, this time aware we are preparing for the second | |
| W1:R4.1 | in such a way as will facilitate the readiness which we would | now achieve. |
| W1:R4.10 | close your eyes and say them slowly to yourself. There is no hurry | now, for you are using time for its intended purpose. Let each word |
| W1:R4.12 | you in the peace wherein He wills you be forever and are learning | now to claim again as your inheritance. |
| W1:151.8 | sinlessness. Whom He has judged can only laugh at guilt, unwilling | now to play with toys of sin, unheeding of the body's witnesses |
| W1:151.16 | is the world redeemed and joyfully released from guilt. | Now do we lift our resurrected minds in gladness and in gratitude to |
| W1:151.17 | accepts our holy thoughts which Heaven has corrected and made pure. | Now has our ministry begun at last, to carry round the world the |
| W1:152.8 | awareness then will be all that there ever was, eternally as it is | now. And it will take the place of self-deceptions made but to usurp |
| W1:152.11 | to Heaven and release from hell are joyously accepted as our own. | Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false and only |
| W1:153.2 | to weakness and sets up a system of defense that cannot work. | Now are the weak still further undermined, for there is treachery |
| W1:153.2 | treachery without and still a greater treachery within. The mind is | now confused and knows not where to turn to find escape from its |
| W1:153.7 | the Christ and come to fear His Father's anger. What can save you | now from your delusion of an angry god whose fearful image you |
| W1:153.7 | in all the evils of the world? What but illusions could defend you | now, when it is but illusions which you fight? |
| W1:153.9 | all thought or wish or dream in which attack has any meaning. | Now we cannot fear, for we have left all fearful thoughts behind. And |
| W1:153.9 | in defenselessness we stand secure, serenely certain of our safety | now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill our chosen purpose as |
| W1:153.13 | in terror in a fearful world made mad by sin and guilt, be happy | now. That game is over. Now a quiet time has come in which we put |
| W1:153.13 | world made mad by sin and guilt, be happy now. That game is over. | Now a quiet time has come in which we put away the toys of guilt and |
| W1:153.15 | our attention to the daily thought as long as possible. Five minutes | now becomes the least we give to preparation for a day in which |
| W1:153.20 | pause a moment as He tells us, “I am here.” Your practicing will | now begin to take the earnestness of love to help you keep your mind |
| W1:154.4 | all sin, with guilt abolished in the mind that God created sinless. | Now this mind becomes aware again of Who created it and of His |
| W1:154.8 | of God? For thus do you become His messengers. You are appointed | now. And yet you wait to give the messages you have received, and so |
| W1:154.9 | You who are | now the messengers of God receive His messages, for that is part of |
| W1:154.15 | are true. They are the message sent to us today from our Creator. | Now we demonstrate how they have changed our minds about ourselves |
| W1:155.5 | both are quickly left behind. This is the way appointed for you | now. You walk this path as others walk, nor do you seem to be |
| W1:155.6 | which you bring their eyes to look on and their minds to grasp. | Now can the truth, which walks ahead of you, speak to them through |
| W1:155.6 | speak to them through illusion, for the road leads past illusion | now, while on the way you call to them that they may follow you. |
| W1:155.9 | Walk safely | now, yet carefully because this path is new to you. And you may find |
| W1:155.9 | you walk with certainty of purpose to the truth. It goes before you | now, that they may see something with which they can identify, |
| W1:155.12 | the holy Son of God? We walk to God. The truth that walks before us | now is one with Him and leads us to where He has always been. What |
| W1:155.14 | And | now He asks but that you think of Him a while each day that He may |
| W1:156.7 | Companion, and mistake Him for the senseless, ancient dream that | now is past. |
| W1:157.2 | crucial turning point in the curriculum. We add a new dimension | now—a fresh experience that sheds a light on all that we have |
| W1:157.4 | He will direct your practicing today, for what you ask for | now is what He wills. And having joined your will with His this day, |
| W1:157.6 | Your body will be sanctified today, its only purpose being | now to bring the vision of what you experience this day to light the |
| W1:157.8 | will come when you will not return in the same form in which you | now appear, for you will have no need of it. Yet now it has a purpose |
| W1:157.8 | form in which you now appear, for you will have no need of it. Yet | now it has a purpose and will serve it well. Today we will embark |
| W1:157.9 | Into Christ's Presence will we enter | now, serenely unaware of everything except His shining face and |
| W1:159.2 | is no miracle you cannot give, for all are given you. Receive them | now by opening the storehouse of your mind where they are laid and |
| W1:159.9 | one they came from and to which they go again with added fragrance. | Now are they twice blessed. The messages they brought from Christ |
| W1:160.2 | comes and yet maintains his home belongs to him, while he is alien | now who is at home. |
| W1:160.5 | more like me than myself and give him all I thought belonged to me.” | Now is he exiled of necessity, not knowing who he is, uncertain of |
| W1:160.6 | What does he search for | now? What can he find? A stranger to himself can find no home |
| W1:160.6 | a miracle will search him out and show him that he is no stranger | now. The miracle will come. For in his home his Self remains. It |
| W1:160.7 | the stranger? Is he not the one your Self calls not? You are unable | now to recognize this stranger in your midst, for you have given him |
| W1:161.1 | is Atonement made complete, the world passed safely by, and Heaven | now restored. Here is the answer of the Voice of God. |
| W1:161.2 | abstraction is the natural condition of the mind. But part of it is | now unnatural. It does not look on everything as one. It sees instead |
| W1:161.3 | Thus were specifics made. And | now it is specifics we must use in practicing. We give them to the |
| W1:161.11 | in a form we have attempted earlier. Your readiness is closer | now, and you will come today nearer Christ's vision. If you are |
| W1:161.12 | he makes so frequently. Then think of this—what you are seeing | now conceals from you the sight of one who can forgive you all your |
| W1:161.15 | will hear the Voice of God in you and answer in your own. Behold him | now whom you had seen as merely flesh and bone and recognize that |
| W1:162.4 | the mind of him who uses them. So wholly is it changed that it is | now the treasury in which God places all His gifts and all His Love |
| W1:162.5 | We honor you today. Yours is the right to perfect holiness you | now accept. With this acceptance is salvation brought to everyone, |
| W1:162.6 | And who would not be brother to you | now—you, his redeemer and his savior. Who could fail to welcome you |
| W1:163.8 | you will show them this today. There is no death, and we renounce it | now in every form for their salvation and our own as well. God made |
| W1:164.1 | What time but | now can truth be recognized? The present is the only time there is. |
| W1:164.1 | The present is the only time there is. And so today, this instant, | now, we come to look upon what is forever there—not in our sight, |
| W1:164.5 | vain imaginings part like a curtain to reveal what lies beyond them. | Now is what is really there made visible, while all the shadows which |
| W1:164.5 | while all the shadows which appeared to hide it sink to obscurity. | Now is the balance righted and the scales of judgment left to Him Who |
| W1:164.5 | judgment will a world unfold in perfect innocence before your eyes. | Now will you see it with the eyes of Christ. Now is its |
| W1:164.5 | before your eyes. Now will you see it with the eyes of Christ. | Now is its transformation clear to you. |
| W1:164.8 | us and offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving vision, | now our own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go |
| W1:165.5 | sought. What would you then exchange it for? What would induce you | now to let it fade away from your ecstatic vision? For this sight |
| W1:165.6 | Now is all doubting past, the journey's end made certain, and | |
| W1:165.6 | past, the journey's end made certain, and salvation given you. | Now is Christ's power in your mind to heal as you were healed. For |
| W1:165.6 | Now is Christ's power in your mind to heal as you were healed. For | now you are among the saviors of the world. Your destiny lies there |
| W1:166.9 | Your ancient fear has come upon you | now, and justice has caught up with you at last. Christ's hand has |
| W1:166.11 | Now do we live, for now we cannot die. The wish for death is | |
| W1:166.11 | Now do we live, for | now we cannot die. The wish for death is answered, and the sight that |
| W1:166.11 | The wish for death is answered, and the sight that looked upon it | now has been replaced by vision which perceives that you are not what |
| W1:166.12 | you have are not for you alone. What He has come to offer you, you | now must learn to give. This is the lesson that His giving holds, for |
| W1:166.13 | understand they but pursue their wishes. It is you who teach them | now. For you have learned of Christ there is another way for them to |
| W1:166.14 | Your sighs will | now betray the hopes of those who look to you for their release. Your |
| W1:166.15 | accept His gifts and feel the touch of Christ. Such is your mission | now. For God entrusts the giving of His gifts to all who have |
| W1:166.15 | to all who have received them. He has shared His joy with you. And | now you go to share it with the world. |
| W1:167.12 | in the holy minds which He created perfect. As we were, so are we | now and will forever be. A sleeping mind must waken as it sees its |
| W1:167.12 | Lord of Life so perfectly it fades into what is reflected there. And | now it is no more a mere reflection. It becomes the thing reflected |
| W1:167.12 | reflected and the light which makes reflection possible. No vision | now is needed. For the wakened mind is one that knows its Source, its |
| W1:168.4 | God loves His Son. Request Him | now to give the means by which this world will disappear, and vision |
| W1:168.4 | every face as hearts rise up and claim the light as theirs. What | now remains that Heaven be delayed an instant longer? What remains |
| W1:168.7 | Your grace is given me. I claim it | now. Father, I come to You. And You will come to me who asks. I am |
| W1:169.5 | them and no part of mind sufficiently distinct to feel that it is | now aware of something not itself. It has united with its Source, and |
| W1:169.7 | that the time the mind itself determined to abandon all but this is | now at hand. We do not hasten it, in that what you will offer was |
| W1:169.8 | constant state, forever as it always was; forever to remain as it is | now. We merely take the part assigned long since and fully recognized |
| W1:169.9 | of your oneness comes, it will be known and fully understood. | Now we have work to do, for those in time can speak of things beyond |
| W1:169.11 | And | now we ask for grace, the final gift salvation can bestow. Experience |
| W1:170.4 | your mind into two camps which seem wholly irreconcilable. For love | now has an “enemy,” an opposite; and fear, the alien, now needs your |
| W1:170.4 | For love now has an “enemy,” an opposite; and fear, the alien, | now needs your defense against the threat of what you really are. |
| W1:170.10 | is loved by those who worship it, and love appears to be invested | now with cruelty. |
| W1:170.11 | fear perceive their own confusion in fear's “enemy,” its cruelty as | now a part of love. And what becomes more fearful than the heart of |
| W1:170.13 | Now do your eyes belong to Christ, and He looks through them. Now | |
| W1:170.13 | Now do your eyes belong to Christ, and He looks through them. | Now your voice belongs to God and echoes His. And now your heart |
| W1:170.13 | through them. Now your voice belongs to God and echoes His. And | now your heart remains at peace forever. You have chosen Him in place |
| W1:170.13 | are restored to you at last. The Call of God is heard and answered. | Now has fear made way for love, as God Himself replaces cruelty. |
| W1:170.14 | are one with us. We bring them Your salvation as we have received it | now. And we give thanks for them who render us complete. In them we |
| W1:R5.1 | We | now review again. This time we are ready to give more effort and more |
| W1:R5.1 | walk uncertainly and slowly on the road this course sets forth. But | now we hasten on, for we approach a greater certainty, a firmer |
| W1:R5.3 | off, but You will not forget to call us back. Quicken our footsteps | now, that we may walk more certainly and quickly unto You. And we |
| W1:R5.4 | and true, and more descriptive of the holy Self we share and | now prepare to know again: |
| W1:R5.8 | see, but still retaining in his mind the way that led him out and | now will lead you out with him. God's Son is crucified until you walk |
| W1:R5.9 | the light in him and looks for me. I have forgotten no one. Help me | now to lead you back to where the journey was begun, to make another |
| W1:R5.12 | Hallowed your name. Your glory undefiled forever. And your wholeness | now complete, as God established it. You are His Son, completing His |
| W1:174.2 | [157] Into His Presence would I enter | now. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:177.3 | [164] | Now are we one with Him Who is our Source. God is but Love, and |
| W1:179.3 | [168] Your grace is given me. I claim it | now. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:I2.1 | total dedication all the time, as yet. But you are asked to practice | now in order to attain the sense of peace such unified commitment |
| W1:I2.2 | Our lessons | now are geared specifically to widening horizons and direct |
| W1:I2.2 | too limited to let you see the value of our goal. We are attempting | now to lift these blocks, however briefly. Words alone cannot convey |
| W1:I2.3 | denied. It may be there, but you cannot accept its presence. So we | now attempt to go past all defenses for a little while each day. No |
| W1:181.2 | this focus, and what you behold will change accordingly. Your vision | now will shift to give support to the intent which has replaced the |
| W1:181.3 | for innocence and nothing else. We seek for it with no concern but | now. |
| W1:181.5 | to past beliefs, and what we will believe will not intrude upon us | now. We enter in the time of practicing with one intent—to look |
| W1:181.10 | into the present. And we give our trust to the experience we ask for | now. Our sinlessness is but the Will of God. This instant is our |
| W1:182.4 | The childhood of your body and its place of shelter are a memory | now so distorted that you merely hold a picture of a past that never |
| W1:182.12 | accept it in exchange for all the toys of battle you have made. And | now the way is open, and the journey has an end in sight at last. Be |
| W1:183.11 | He calls on Him to let all things he thought he made be nameless | now, and in their place the holy Name of God becomes his judgment of |
| W1:183.12 | All little things are silent. Little sounds are soundless | now. The little things of earth have disappeared. The universe |
| W1:184.14 | which kept us blind. And we are given strength to see beyond them. | Now our sight is blessed with blessings we can give as we receive. |
| W1:185.5 | which bring illusions. He has looked on them and found them wanting. | Now he seeks to go beyond them, recognizing that another dream would |
| W1:185.8 | dismayed by lingering illusions, for their form is not what matters | now. Let not some dreams be more acceptable, reserving shame and |
| W1:186.12 | given you by your Creator, Who remembers you and urges that you | now remember Him. |
| W1:187.3 | look upon. Herein is the idea of giving clarified and given meaning. | Now you can perceive that by your giving is your store increased. |
| W1:187.8 | must be made. Your blessing will correct it. Given first to you, it | now is yours to give as well. No form of sacrifice and suffering can |
| W1:187.10 | Now are we one in thought, for fear has gone. And here, before the | |
| W1:187.11 | Now are we blessed, and now we bless the world. What we have looked | |
| W1:187.11 | Now are we blessed, and | now we bless the world. What we have looked upon we would extend, for |
| W1:188.1 | seek the light are merely covering their eyes. The light is in them | now. Enlightenment is but a recognition, not a change at all. Light |
| W1:188.3 | The peace of God is shining in you | now and from your heart extends around the world. It pauses to caress |
| W1:188.5 | he recognized the truth in him. The peace of God is shining in you | now and in all living things. In quietness is it acknowledged |
| W1:188.8 | home. We have betrayed them, ordering that they depart from us. But | now we call them back and wash them clean of strange desires and |
| W1:188.9 | it did to us. For it is we who make the world as we would have it. | Now we choose that it be innocent, devoid of sin, and open to |
| W1:188.10 | The peace of God is shining in me | now. Let all things shine upon me in that peace, and let me bless |
| W1:189.1 | your sight. This light is a reflection of the thought we practice | now. To feel the Love of God within you is to see the world anew, |
| W1:189.10 | be done in us and in the world, that it becomes a part of Heaven | now. Amen. |
| W1:190.5 | will accept your holy will as theirs. And what was seen as fearful | now becomes a source of innocence and holiness. |
| W1:192.4 | the world a clean and unmarked slate on which the Word of God can | now replace the senseless symbols written there before. Forgiveness |
| W1:192.4 | the fear of death is overcome because it holds no fierce attraction | now, and guilt is gone. |
| W1:192.10 | your mercy. It is he who asks that you accept the way to freedom | now. Deny him not. His Father's Love for him belongs to you. Your |
| W1:192.10 | He is as God created him. And you are what he is. Forgive him | now his sins, and you will see that you are one with him. |
| W1:193.4 | mind of His most holy Son with peace and joy fulfills His function | now. He redirects each lesson you would teach in hate to one in which |
| W1:193.4 | enters, and returns the hate to love, so that the fear is gone. And | now guilt cannot enter, for its source has been excluded as the |
| W1:193.12 | forget His Love and all the gifts His Love brings with it. Would you | now renounce your own salvation? Would you fail to learn the simple |
| W1:193.15 | Give all you can and give a little more, for | now we would arise in haste and go unto our Father's house. We have |
| W1:194.1 | with certainty the final step of God. How far are we progressing | now from earth! How close are we approaching to our goal! How short |
| W1:194.4 | well because the past will punish you no more and future dread will | now be meaningless. |
| W1:194.5 | light that was kept hidden in God's Son is freed to bless the world. | Now is he free, and all his glory shines upon a world made free with |
| W1:194.9 | Now are we saved indeed. For in God's hands we rest untroubled, sure | |
| W1:195.2 | a prison that they thought contained no door to the deliverance they | now perceive. |
| W1:195.3 | despair so bitter and relentless that there is no hope remaining. | Now is vengeance all there is to wish for. Now can you but try to |
| W1:195.3 | is no hope remaining. Now is vengeance all there is to wish for. | Now can you but try to bring him down to lie in death with you, as |
| W1:195.8 | aside. What more remains as obstacles to peace? The fear of God is | now undone at last, and we forgive without comparing. Thus we cannot |
| W1:196.8 | by your own thoughts, the fear of God must disappear. You do not | now believe that fear is caused without. And God, Whom you had |
| W1:196.11 | Now for an instant is a murderer perceived within you, eager for your | |
| W1:197.9 | be His thoughts, sharing with Him the holy thoughts of God. Earn | now the gratitude you have denied yourself when you forgot the |
| W1:198.1 | can injure, and the right you have established for yourself can be | now used against you till you lay it down as valueless, unwanted, and |
| W1:198.1 | be undone. Then are you free, for freedom is your gift, and you can | now receive the gift you gave. |
| W1:198.13 | Now is there silence all around the world. Now is there stillness | |
| W1:198.13 | Now is there silence all around the world. | Now is there stillness where before there was a frantic rush of |
| W1:198.13 | before there was a frantic rush of thoughts that made no sense. | Now is there tranquil light across the face of earth, made quiet in a |
| W1:198.13 | light across the face of earth, made quiet in a dreamless sleep. And | now the Word of God alone remains upon it. Only that can be perceived |
| W1:198.15 | far and recognize that He Who brought us here will not forsake us | now. For He would give to us the gift that God has given us through |
| W1:198.15 | would give to us the gift that God has given us through Him today. | Now is it time for your deliverance. The time has come. The time has |
| W1:199.6 | freedom. In Him they find what they have sought. The body's purpose | now is unambiguous. And it becomes perfect in the ability to serve an |
| W1:199.7 | afraid. Let love replace their fears through you. Accept salvation | now, and give your mind to Him Who calls to you to make this gift to |
| W1:200.8 | journeys, frantic, vain pursuits, and meaningless endeavors. | Now the way is easy, sloping gently toward the bridge where freedom |
| W1:200.10 | Now is there silence. Seek no further. You have come to where the | |
| W1:200.10 | desires, fallen from the trees of hopelessness you sought before. | Now are they underfoot. And you look up and on toward Heaven, with |
| W1:200.10 | Heaven, with the body's eyes but serving for an instant longer | now. Peace is already recognized at last, and you can feel its soft |
| W1:R6.11 | you call to Him to help you. Let us offer Him the whole review we | now begin, and let us also not forget to Whom it has been given as we |
| W1:208.1 | [188] The peace of God is shining in me | now. I will be still and let the earth be still along with me. And in |
| W1:209.1 | [189] I feel the Love of God within me | now. The Love of God is what created me. The Love of God is |
| W1:214.1 | future in the hands of God. The past is gone; the future is not yet. | Now am I freed from both. For what God gives can only be for good. |
| W2:I.1 | Words will mean little | now. We use them but as guides on which we do not now depend. For now |
| W2:I.1 | will mean little now. We use them but as guides on which we do not | now depend. For now we seek direct experience of truth alone. The |
| W2:I.1 | now. We use them but as guides on which we do not now depend. For | now we seek direct experience of truth alone. The lessons which |
| W2:I.1 | the times in which we leave the world of pain and go to enter peace. | Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set and find the end |
| W2:I.2 | Now we attempt to let the exercise be merely a beginning. For we wait | |
| W2:I.2 | are sure His promises are kept. We have come far along the road, and | now we wait for Him. We will continue spending time with Him each |
| W2:I.2 | as makes us happy. We will not consider time a matter of duration | now. We use as much as we will need for the result that we desire. |
| W2:I.4 | Now do we come to Him with but His Word upon our minds and hearts. | |
| W2:I.4 | will offer it, and it will be accepted. So our times with Him will | now be spent. We say the words of invitation that His Voice suggests, |
| W2:I.5 | Now is the time of prophecy fulfilled. Now are all ancient promises | |
| W2:I.5 | Now is the time of prophecy fulfilled. | Now are all ancient promises upheld and fully kept. No step remains |
| W2:I.5 | No step remains for time to separate from its accomplishment. For | now we cannot fail. Sit silently and wait upon your Father. He has |
| W2:I.6 | exchange for its replacement given us by You. We look not backward | now. We look ahead and fix our eyes upon the journey's end. Accept |
| W2:I.7 | And | now we wait in silence, unafraid and certain of Your coming. We have |
| W2:I.7 | but You did not forget us. And we know that You will not forget us | now. We ask but that Your ancient promises be kept which are Your |
| W2:I.9 | make of Him. And we believed that our insane desires were the truth. | Now we are glad that this is all undone, and we no longer think |
| W2:I.10 | Now is the need for practice almost done. For in this final section | |
| W2:I.10 | the way God's plan will end, as we received the way it started. | Now it is complete. This year has brought us to eternity. |
| W2:I.11 | blessed instants in the day. We give the first of these instructions | now. |
| W2:WF.1 | and therefore lets it go. What then is free to take its place is | now the Will of God. |
| W2:WF.5 | has forgiven you already, for such is His function given Him by God. | Now must you share His function and forgive whom He has saved, whose |
| W2:221.2 | Now do we wait in quiet. God is here because we wait together. I am | |
| W2:222.2 | upon our lips and in our minds as we come quietly into Your Presence | now and ask to rest with You in peace a while. |
| W2:223.1 | which moved in isolation, unattached, and housed within a body. | Now I know my life is God's. I have no other home, and I do not exist |
| W2:224.2 | where I am going, who I am, or what it is I do. Remind me, Father, | now, for I am weary of the world I see. Reveal what You would have me |
| W2:225.2 | Brother, we find that stillness | now. The way is open. Now we follow it in peace together. You have |
| W2:225.2 | Brother, we find that stillness now. The way is open. | Now we follow it in peace together. You have reached your hand to me, |
| W2:226.1 | the purpose of the world. If I believe it has a value as I see it | now, so will it still remain for me. But if I see no value in the |
| W2:227.1 | mistaken and did not affect my own reality at all by my illusions. | Now I give them up and lay them down before the feet of truth, to be |
| W2:229.1 | and find it in these words: “Love, Which created me, is what I am.” | Now need I seek no more. Love has prevailed. So still it waited for |
| W2:230.1 | is God my Father, that when He created me He gave me peace forever. | Now I ask but to be what I am. And can this be denied me, when it is |
| W2:230.2 | You gave as mine in my creation. What was given then must be here | now, for my creation was apart from time and still remains beyond all |
| W2:WS.2 | of the mind that still was one but failed to recognize its oneness. | Now it did not know itself and thought its own Identity was lost. |
| W2:WS.3 | it merely lets them quietly go down to dust. And what they hid is | now revealed—an altar to the holy Name of God whereon His Word is |
| W2:WS.4 | by God. The grass is pushing through the soil, the trees are budding | now, and birds have come to live within their branches. Earth is |
| W2:WS.5 | dreams are done, eternity has shined away the world, and only Heaven | now exists at all. |
| W2:WIW.1 | truth, where all the world must disappear and all its errors vanish. | Now its source has gone, and its effects are gone as well. |
| W2:WIW.2 | cause such insane thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely. | Now mistakes become quite possible, for certainty has gone. |
| W2:WIW.3 | The mechanisms of illusion have been born instead. And | now they go to find what has been given them to seek. Their aim is to |
| W2:241.1 | This is the time of hope for countless millions. They will be united | now as you forgive them all. For I will be forgiven by you today. |
| W2:241.2 | We have forgiven one another | now, and so we come at last to You again. Father, Your Son, who never |
| W2:248.1 | I have disowned the truth. | Now let me be as faithful in disowning falsity. Whatever suffers is |
| W2:248.1 | was never living in reality and did but mock the truth about myself. | Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the holy Son of |
| W2:248.1 | disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the holy Son of God. | Now am I ready to accept him back as God created him, and as he is. |
| W2:248.2 | lets me love Your Son again as well. Father, I am as You created me. | Now is Your Love remembered and my own. Now do I understand that they |
| W2:248.2 | I am as You created me. Now is Your Love remembered and my own. | Now do I understand that they are one. |
| W2:249.1 | no sense. Attack is gone, and madness has an end. What suffering is | now conceivable? What loss can be sustained? The world becomes a |
| W2:249.1 | a place of joy, abundance, charity, and endless giving. It is | now so like to Heaven that it quickly is transformed into the Light |
| W2:249.2 | bitterness, and frightened them with thoughts of violence and death. | Now would we rest again in You, as You created us. |
| W2:WIS.2 | Its purpose is to strive. Yet can the goal of striving change. And | now the body serves a different aim for striving. What it seeks for |
| W2:WIS.2 | now the body serves a different aim for striving. What it seeks for | now is chosen by the aim the mind has taken as replacement for the |
| W2:251.1 | I sought for many things and found despair. | Now do I seek but one, for in that one is all I need and only what I |
| W2:251.1 | not and did not even want. My only need I did not recognize. But | now I see that I need only truth. In that, all needs are satisfied, |
| W2:251.1 | cravings end, all hopes are finally fulfilled, and dreams are gone. | Now have I everything that I could need. Now have I everything that I |
| W2:251.1 | and dreams are gone. Now have I everything that I could need. | Now have I everything that I could want. And now at last I find |
| W2:251.1 | that I could need. Now have I everything that I could want. And | now at last I find myself at peace. |
| W2:252.1 | My Self is holy beyond all the thoughts of holiness of which I | now conceive. Its shimmering and perfect purity is far more brilliant |
| W2:252.2 | Father, You know my true Identity. Reveal it | now to me who am Your Son, that I may waken to the truth in You and |
| W2:254.2 | with them. And so we do not choose to keep them. They are silent | now. And in the stillness, hallowed by His Love, God speaks to us and |
| W2:260.2 | Now is our Source remembered, and therein we find our true Identity | |
| W2:WIB.4 | to reach his brother and to help him walk along the road with him. | Now is the body holy. Now it serves to heal the mind that it was made |
| W2:WIB.4 | and to help him walk along the road with him. Now is the body holy. | Now it serves to heal the mind that it was made to kill. |
| W2:267.1 | fills my heart and floods my body with the purpose of forgiveness. | Now my mind is healed, and all I need to save the world is given me. |
| W2:270.1 | more of time, which ends forever as Your memory returns to him. And | now his will is one with Yours. His function now is but Your own, and |
| W2:270.1 | returns to him. And now his will is one with Yours. His function | now is but Your own, and every thought except Your own is gone. |
| W2:WIC.5 | face be seen, when it is but the symbol that the time for learning | now is over and the goal of the Atonement has been reached at last? |
| W2:273.1 | Perhaps we are | now ready for a day of undisturbed tranquility. If this is not yet |
| W2:279.1 | his dreams are gone, with truth established in their place. And | now is freedom his already. Should I wait in chains which have been |
| W2:279.1 | which have been severed for release, when God is offering me freedom | now? |
| W2:283.2 | Now are we one in shared Identity, with God our Father as our only | |
| W2:289.1 | past was made to hide, for this the world that can be looked on only | now. It has no past. For what can be forgiven but the past, and if it |
| W2:WIRW.5 | The Holy Spirit has no need of time when it has served His purpose. | Now He waits but that one instant more for God to take His final |
| W2:WISC.4 | For everyone who ever came to die or yet will come or who is present | now is equally released from what he made. In this equality is Christ |
| W2:302.1 | We thought we suffered. But we had forgot the Son whom You created. | Now we see that darkness is our own imagining and light is there for |
| W2:308.1 | future one. The only interval in which I can be saved from time is | now. For in this instant has forgiveness come to set me free. The |
| W2:308.1 | instant has forgiveness come to set me free. The birth of Christ is | now, without a past or future. He has come to give His present |
| W2:308.1 | it to timelessness and love. And love is ever-present, here and | now. |
| W2:308.2 | Thanks for this instant, Father. It is | now I am redeemed. This instant is the time You have appointed for |
| W2:WILJ.1 | you see a world which has accepted this as true, projected from a | now corrected mind. And with this holy sight, perception gives a |
| W2:WILJ.2 | forgiven, without sin and wholly purposeless. Without a cause and | now without a function in Christ's sight, it merely slips away to |
| W2:WILJ.2 | the figures in the dream in which the world began go with it. Bodies | now are useless and will therefore fade away because the Son of God |
| W2:313.1 | all its sins forgiven, for He sees no sin in anything He looks upon. | Now let His true perception come to me that I may waken from the |
| W2:314.1 | world there comes a future very different from the past. The future | now is recognized as but extension of the present. Past mistakes can |
| W2:314.1 | being formless, it has no effects. Death will not claim the future | now, for life is now its goal, and all the needed means are happily |
| W2:314.1 | it has no effects. Death will not claim the future now, for life is | now its goal, and all the needed means are happily provided. Who can |
| W2:314.2 | were mistaken in the past and choose to use the present to be free. | Now do we leave the future in Your hands, leaving behind our past |
| W2:315.2 | Son of God. My brothers are unlimited in all their gifts to me. | Now may I offer them my thankfulness that gratitude to them may lead |
| W2:321.1 | I have searched in vain until I heard Your Voice directing me. | Now I would guide myself no more. For I have neither made nor |
| W2:323.2 | to us in wholeness and in joy. We are deceived no longer. Love has | now returned to our awareness. And we are at peace again, for fear |
| W2:332.2 | has given us the means to set it free. Father, we would release it | now. For as we offer freedom, it is given us. And we would not remain |
| W2:337.1 | for I need but accept my Self, my sinlessness, created for me, | now already mine, to feel God's Love protecting me from harm, to |
| W2:337.2 | sinned, but I accept Atonement for myself. Father, my dream is ended | now. Amen. |
| W2:338.1 | For in this single thought is everyone released at last from fear. | Now he has learned that no one frightens him and nothing can endanger |
| W2:WIM.2 | before, and thus it ends the strange distortions that were manifest. | Now is perception open to the truth. Now is forgiveness seen as |
| W2:WIM.2 | distortions that were manifest. Now is perception open to the truth. | Now is forgiveness seen as justified. |
| W2:WIM.5 | and dusty world, where starved and thirsty creatures came to die. | Now they have water. Now the world is green. And everywhere the signs |
| W2:WIM.5 | starved and thirsty creatures came to die. Now they have water. | Now the world is green. And everywhere the signs of life spring up to |
| W2:342.2 | Brother, forgive me | now. I come to you to take you home with me. And as we go, the world |
| W2:WAI.2 | Our use for words is almost over | now. Yet in the final days of this one year we gave to God together, |
| W2:WAI.5 | We bring glad tidings to the Son of God, who thought he suffered. | Now is he redeemed. And as he sees the gate of Heaven stand open |
| W2:355.1 | waits for me, and I need but reach out my hand to find it. Even | now my fingers touch it. It is very close. I need not wait an instant |
| W2:FL.5 | the gift our Father promised to His holy Son. We are forgiven | now. And we are saved from all the wrath we thought belonged to God |
| W2:E.4 | And | now I place you in His hands, to be His faithful followers, with Him |
| W2:E.4 | you of your Father and your brother and your Self. He will continue; | now you walk with Him as certain as is He of where you go; as sure as |
| M:1.4 | it is time alone that winds on wearily, and the world is very tired | now. It is old and worn and without hope. There was never a question |
| M:2.3 | the world of illusion. What happened long ago seems to be happening | now. Choices made long since appear to be open, yet to be made. What |
| M:2.4 | that is relived again and again and still again, it seems to be | now. And thus it is that pupil and teacher seem to come together in |
| M:2.4 | because he made the right choice in that ancient instant which he | now relives. So has the teacher, too, made an inevitable choice out |
| M:4.6 | learned that the changes in his life are always helpful, he must | now decide all things on the basis of whether they increase the |
| M:4.8 | Now comes a “period of settling down.” This is a quiet time in which | |
| M:4.8 | time in which the teacher of God rests a while in reasonable peace. | Now he consolidates his learning. Now he begins to see the transfer |
| M:4.8 | rests a while in reasonable peace. Now he consolidates his learning. | Now he begins to see the transfer value of what he has learned. Its |
| M:4.8 | Its potential is literally staggering, and the teacher of God is | now at the point in his progress at which he sees in it his whole way |
| M:4.8 | he is ready to go on, he goes with mighty companions beside him. | Now he rests a while and gathers them before going on. He will not go |
| M:4.9 | The next stage is indeed a “period of unsettling.” | Now must the teacher of God understand that he did not really know |
| M:4.9 | for him to judge. He thought he had learned willingness, but | now he sees that he does not know what the willingness is for. And |
| M:4.9 | now he sees that he does not know what the willingness is for. And | now he must attain a state that may remain impossible for a long, |
| M:4.10 | a “period of achievement.” It is here that learning is consolidated. | Now what was seen as merely shadows before becomes solid gains, to be |
| M:4.16 | the inevitable result of gentleness. Gentleness means that fear is | now impossible, and what could come to interfere with joy? The open |
| M:4.20 | right as is the answer. And this is true for everything that happens | now or in the future. The past as well held no mistakes—nothing |
| M:4.24 | they could never have conceived of such a change. Nothing is | now as it was formerly. Nothing but sparkles now which seemed so dull |
| M:4.24 | a change. Nothing is now as it was formerly. Nothing but sparkles | now which seemed so dull and lifeless before. And above all are all |
| M:4.24 | for threat is gone. No clouds remain to hide the face of Christ. | Now is the goal achieved. Forgiveness is the final goal of the |
| M:5.3 | is. But if he chooses death himself, his weakness is his strength. | Now has he given himself what God would give to him and thus entirely |
| M:5.7 | What do guilt and sickness, pain, disaster, and all suffering mean | now? Having no purpose, they are gone. And with them also go all the |
| M:7.1 | concerned about the result of healing is to limit the healing. It is | now the teacher of God himself whose mind needs to be healed. And it |
| M:7.1 | mind needs to be healed. And it is this he must facilitate. He is | now the patient, and he must so regard himself. He has made a mistake |
| M:7.2 | maximal, because the Holy Spirit so accepted it and so used it. | Now the teacher of God has only one course to follow. He must use his |
| M:10.3 | that his judgment would be wholly fair to everyone on whom it rests, | now and in the future. Who is in a position to do this? Who except in |
| M:10.5 | lay judgment down, not with regret but with a sigh of gratitude. | Now are you free of a burden so great that you could merely stagger |
| M:10.5 | and fall down beneath it. And it was all illusion. Nothing more. | Now can the teacher of God rise up unburdened and walk lightly on. |
| M:10.5 | with judgment. He gave himself to Him Whose judgment he has chosen | now to trust instead of his own. Now he makes no mistakes. His Guide |

| M:15.2 | forever in the Heart of God. Where is the world and where is sorrow | now? |
| M:17.5 | of guilt. Who usurps the place of God and takes it for himself | now has a deadly “enemy.” And he must stand alone in his protection |

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

| Tx:4.36 | perception is uniformly without attack, so that wrong-mindedness is | obliterated. The ego cannot survive without judgment and is laid |

| Tx:6.47 | The most inventive activities of the ego have never done more than | obscure the question, because you have the answer and the ego is |
| Tx:7.9 | the Kingdom or separated from it, thus making the Kingdom itself | obscure to both of you. Sickness and separation are not of God, but |
| Tx:7.9 | Sickness and separation are not of God, but the Kingdom is. If you | obscure the Kingdom, you are perceiving what is not of God. |
| Tx:7.65 | of God. Any belief that you accept which is apart from this will | obscure God's Voice in you and will therefore obscure God to you. |
| Tx:7.65 | apart from this will obscure God's Voice in you and will therefore | obscure God to you. Unless you perceive His creation truly, you |
| Tx:8.41 | through illusions, for only illusions of another direction can | obscure the one for which God's Voice speaks in all of us. Never |
| Tx:9.55 | deprive you of your true witnesses to your reality. Truth is not | obscure nor hidden, but its obviousness to you lies in the joy you |

| Tx:10.21 | this knowledge back into your minds, and let nothing that will | obscure it enter. The Guest whom God sent you will teach you how to |
| Tx:10.72 | the world as you perceive it. Truth is not absent here, but it is | obscure. You do not know the difference between what you have made |
| Tx:11.15 | of the fog that obscures it. If you give no power to the fog to | obscure the light, it has none, for it has power only because the Son |
| Tx:12.47 | created, there is no guilt in Him. No cloud of guilt has risen to | obscure Him, and He stands revealed in everyone you meet because you |
| Tx:12.49 | yours, you share in this release. Let no dark cloud out of your past | obscure him from you, for truth lies only in the present, and you |
| Tx:13.77 | sets you free. And it is His decision to undo everything that would | obscure your innocence from your unclouded mind. |
| Tx:14.16 | that can terrify, not for what it is, but for its hiddenness. The | obscure is frightening because you do not understand its meaning. If |

| Tx:14.20 | a means of reestablishing what has not been broken but has been made | obscure. All things you made have use to Him for His most holy |
| Tx:14.32 | dark doors which you have closed lies nothing, because nothing can | obscure the gift of God. It is the closing of the doors that |
| Tx:14.42 | upon it. Reflections are seen in light. In darkness they are | obscure, and their meaning seems to lie only in shifting |
| Tx:14.44 | the world. The image of holiness which shines in your mind is not | obscure and will not change. Its meaning to those who look upon it is |
| Tx:14.44 | and will not change. Its meaning to those who look upon it is not | obscure, for everyone perceives it as the same. All bring their |

| Tx:15.62 | gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no need that you perceive | obscure your need of this. For in the holy instant, you will |
| Tx:16.55 | attempt to raise other gods before Him and by worshiping them to | obscure their tininess and His greatness. In the name of your |
| Tx:17.63 | successful, except that this attempt conflicts with unity and must | obscure the goal of truth. And peace will not be experienced except |
| Tx:18.18 | of satisfaction would be gone. In dreams these features are not | obscure. You seem to waken, and the dream is gone. Yet what you fail |
| Tx:20.48 | Love has no darkened temples where mysteries are kept | obscure and hidden from the sun. It does not seek for power, but for |

| Tx:21.25 | cause and effect becomes inevitable. The purpose now becomes to keep | obscure the cause of the effect and make effect appear to be a cause. |
| Tx:24.2 | question every value that you hold. Not one can be kept hidden and | obscure but it will jeopardize your learning. No belief is neutral. |
| Tx:24.53 | See in his freedom yours, for such it is. Let not his specialness | obscure the truth in him, for not one law of death you bind him to |
| Tx:25.27 | Nothing remains an instant to | obscure the sinlessness that shines unchanged beyond the pitiful |

| Tx:30.53 | appearances and not reality. Dwell not on them in any form. They but | obscure reality, and they bring fear because they hide the truth. Do |

| W1:49.4 | shrieks and sick imaginings that cover your real thoughts and | obscure your eternal link with God. Sink deep into the peace that |
| W1:52.6 | Would I not rather join the thinking of the universe than to | obscure all that is really mine with my pitiful and meaningless |
| W1:64.1 | not wander into temptation.” The purpose of the world you see is to | obscure your function of forgiveness and provide you with a |
| W1:78.11 | very quiet now and look upon your shining savior. No dark grievances | obscure the sight of him. You have allowed the Holy Spirit to express |
| W1:81.4 | Let me not | obscure the light of the world in me. Let the light of the world |
| W1:84.5 | completely alien to love. Grievances attack love and keep its light | obscure. If I hold grievances I am attacking love and therefore |
| W1:94.2 | and light as well. You are as God created you. Darkness cannot | obscure the glory of the Son of God. You stand in light, strong in |

| W1:135.18 | your reality which is the “threat” that your defenses would attack, | obscure, and take apart and crucify. |

| W1:152.4 | This is the simplest of distinctions, yet the most | obscure. But not because it is a difficult distinction to perceive. |
| W1:159.3 | love and the rebirth of love which never died but has been kept | obscure. Christ's vision pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so like |
| W1:159.5 | there, transparent, faintly seen, at times forgot, and never able to | obscure the light that shines beyond them. Holiness has been restored |
| W1:165.1 | truth which lies beyond? What but your thoughts of misery and death | obscure the perfect happiness and the Eternal Life your Father wills |
| W1:169.10 | that you have work to do to play your part. The ending must remain | obscure to you until your part is done. It does not matter. For your |

| W2:250.1 | the Son of God today and witness to his glory. Let me not try to | obscure the holy light in him and see his strength diminished and |
| W2:265.1 | shines. There is no fear in it. Let no appearance of my “sins” | obscure the light of Heaven, shining on the world. What is reflected |

| Tx:23.18 | be; where either goes the other disappears. So is the memory of God | obscured in minds that have become illusion's battleground. Yet far |
| Tx:24.10 | separate arises here. For here the purpose which you share becomes | obscured from both of you. You would oppose this course because it |
| Tx:25.76 | and cannot fairly see another's rights because his own have been | obscured to him. |

| Tx:12.12 | healed, and you realize that, by removing the dark cloud that | obscures it, your love for your Father would impel you to answer His |
| Tx:12.47 | and look without condemnation upon the present. For the cloud which | obscures God's Son to you is the past, and if you would have it past |
| Tx:25.17 | purpose, not yours apart from His. It is your separate purpose that | obscures the picture and cherishes the frame instead of it. Yet God |
| Tx:26.45 | in earth and Heaven rests. The one illusion that you think is friend | obscures His grace and majesty from you and keeps His friendship and |
| Tx:26.78 | Forget not that a shadow held between your brother and yourself | obscures the face of Christ and memory of God. And would you trade |
| Tx:31.26 | but only for your own. Whatever form his sins appear to take, it but | obscures the fact that you believe them to be yours and therefore |
| W1:130.2 | you cannot see. Love and perception thus go hand in hand, but fear | obscures in darkness what is there. |

| Tx:12.27 | reactions to those you meet now from a past reference point, | obscuring their present reality. In effect, if you follow the ego's |
| Tx:25.16 | frame is all there is to see. The body holds it for a while without | obscuring it in any way. Yet what God has created needs no frame, for |
| Tx:27.54 | Pain demonstrates the body must be real. It is a loud, | obscuring voice whose shrieks would silence what the Holy Spirit says |
| W1:41.4 | hidden deep within under a heavy cloud of insane thoughts, dense and | obscuring, yet representing all you see? Today we will make our first |
| W2:259.1 | and suffering? And what but this could be the source of fear, | obscuring God's creation, giving love the attributes of fear and of |

| W1:138.11 | for what was made enormous, vengeful, pitiless with hate demands | obscurity for fear to be invested there. Now it is recognized as but |

| Tx:19.77 | more about this strange devotion, for it contains the third of the | obstacles which peace must flow across. No one can die unless he |

| Tx:7.102 | That is why you need to demonstrate the | obvious to yourself. It is not obvious to you. You believe that doing |
| Tx:7.102 | is why you need to demonstrate the obvious to yourself. It is not | obvious to you. You believe that doing the opposite of God's Will can |
| Tx:8.30 | will, unless our wills are joined you cannot be healed. This is | obvious when you consider what healing is for. Healing is the way in |

| Tx:8.66 | indication of a poor learner. He has accepted a learning goal in | obvious contradiction to the unified purpose of the curriculum and is |
| Tx:8.72 | argument from the ego's point of view because it obscures the | obvious attack which underlies the sickness. If you accepted this and |
| Tx:9.39 | the Atonement is the way to peace. The reason is very simple and so | obvious that it is often overlooked. That is because the ego is |

| Tx:9.40 | It is perfectly | obvious that if the Holy Spirit looks with love on all He perceives, |

| Tx:16.24 | let what you are teach you. You have been very careful to avoid the | obvious and not to see the real cause and effect relationship that is |
| Tx:16.73 | you are allowing your destruction to be. That this is insane is | obvious. But what is less obvious to you is that the present is |
| Tx:16.73 | destruction to be. That this is insane is obvious. But what is less | obvious to you is that the present is useless to you while you pursue |
| Tx:19.3 | it and the purpose which the mind would use it for. And it is | obvious that a segment of the mind can see itself as separated from |

| W1:43.10 | directly to today's idea is suitable. The thoughts need not bear an | obvious relationship to the idea, but they should not be in |
| W1:47.6 | past all concerns related to your own sense of inadequacy. It is | obvious that any situation that causes you concern is associated with |
| W1:72.3 | the attempt to keep the limitations which a body would impose is | obvious here, it is perhaps not so apparent why holding grievances is |
| W1:93.2 | see that they are based on nothing. That you have made mistakes is | obvious. That you have sought salvation in strange ways—have been |

| W1:133.10 | deceive but those who are content to be deceived. Its goals are | obvious to anyone who cares to look for them. Here is deception |
| W1:135.15 | which these self-deceptions take, for the denial of reality is very | obvious. Yet planning is not often recognized as a defense. |
| W1:138.3 | Choice is the | obvious escape from what appears as opposites. Decision lets one of |
| W1:163.6 | and cannot die. No compromise is possible. For here again we see an | obvious position which we must accept if we be sane; what contradicts |
| W1:170.5 | will perceive the premises on which the idea stands. First, it is | obvious ideas must leave their source. For it is you who make attack |
| W1:193.7 | be rejected in the end. No one can hide forever from a truth so very | obvious that it appears in countless forms and yet is recognized as |
| W2:259.1 | the goal of God seem unobtainable. What else could blind us to the | obvious and make the strange and the distorted seem more clear? What |
| W2:293.1 | and showing me distorted forms of pain? Yet in the present, love is | obvious and its effects apparent. All the world shines in reflection |

| M:5.4 | But to say this one must first recognize certain facts. First, it is | obvious that decisions are of the mind, not of the body. If sickness |
| M:9.2 | learns to give up his own judgment. The giving up of judgment, the | obvious prerequisite for hearing God's Voice, is usually a fairly |

| M:29.3 | Perhaps you have not thought of this aspect, but its centrality is | obvious. To follow the Holy Spirit's guidance is to let yourself be |

| Tx:6.74 | the other one, which would be much less acceptable to it, would | obviously be that it is insane. The ego's judgment, then, is |
| Tx:7.39 | with healing that it does need clarification. The unhealed healer | obviously does not understand his own vocation. |
| Tx:7.44 | that he can sometimes heal and sometimes not, the healer is | obviously accepting inconsistency. He is therefore in conflict and |
| Tx:7.100 | will direct you only so as to avoid pain. The undoing of pain must | obviously avoid pain. Surely no one would object to this goal if he |
| Tx:7.101 | them apart. However strange it may seem that this is necessary, it | obviously is. The reason is equally obvious. What is joyful to you is |
| Tx:8.5 | and if you want a different one, a change in the curriculum is | obviously necessary. |
| Tx:9.95 | to the denial of God is the ego's religion. The god of sickness | obviously demands the denial of health, because health is in direct |
| Tx:10.40 | can be dispelled merely by denying their reality. The next step is | obviously to recognize that what has no effects does not exist. Laws |
| Tx:10.43 | cannot have any effects if its source is not true. Fear becomes more | obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the ego's goal, which is so |
| Tx:19.27 | Sometimes a sin can be repeated over and over with | obviously distressing results but without the loss of its appeal. And |
| W1:9.1 | This idea | obviously follows from the two preceding ones. But while you may be |
| W1:10.8 | Today's idea can | obviously serve for any thought that distresses you at any time. In |
| W1:15.7 | Although you will | obviously not be able to apply the idea to very many things during |
| W1:19.1 | The idea for today is | obviously the reason why your seeing does not affect you alone. You |

| W1:42.7 | unless you realize your mind is merely wandering and you have let | obviously irrelevant thoughts intrude. You may also reach a point |
| W1:61.9 | you are and what your purpose is. As a bringer of salvation, this is | obviously necessary. This is the first of a number of giant steps we |
| W1:65.1 | you have no function other than this. Both of these thoughts are | obviously necessary for a total commitment. Salvation cannot be the |

| W1:69.4 | your eyes closed, try to let go of all the content which generally | occupies your consciousness. Think of your mind as a vast circle, |

| W1:139.8 | which denies itself in statement? Let us not allow our holy minds to | occupy themselves with senseless musings such as this. We have a |

| Tx:2.62 | they might induce and, because egocentricity and fear usually | occur together, may be unable to accept the real Source of the |
| Tx:3.1 | this, you may become much too fearful when the unexpected does | occur to make constructive use of it. However, as you study these |

| Tx:4.26 | that one need only perceive it to see that it does happen. If it can | occur that way in the present, why is it surprising that it occurred |

| Tx:14.48 | among your thoughts, which, even though they may conflict, can | occur to you together and in great numbers. You are so used to this |

| Tx:18.60 | This can | occur regardless of the physical distance which seems to be between |
| Tx:18.60 | in size and seeming quality. Time is not relevant; it can | occur with something past, present, or anticipated. The “something” |
| Tx:19.96 | utterly abandon you if you but raise your eyes. Yet all that will | occur is you will leave the world forever. This is the |

| Tx:30.31 | For you and your advisor must agree on what you want before it can | occur. It is but this agreement which permits all things to happen. |
| Tx:31.27 | are? If you did not believe that you deserved attack, it never would | occur to you to give attack to anyone at all. Why should you? What |
| Tx:31.29 | is all that causes change. And so the body, where no learning can | occur, could never change unless the mind preferred the body change |
| Tx:31.72 | this shift requires is that you be willing that this happy change | occur. No more than this is asked. On its behalf, remember what the |
| W1:12.5 | and so on, using whatever descriptive terms happen to | occur to you. If terms which seem positive rather than negative occur |
| W1:12.5 | to occur to you. If terms which seem positive rather than negative | occur to you, include them. For example, you might think of a “good |
| W1:12.5 | think of a “good world,” or a “satisfying world.” If such terms | occur to you, use them along with the rest. You may not yet |
| W1:23.6 | about a minute to searching your mind for as many attack thoughts as | occur to you. As each one crosses your mind say: |
| W1:24.7 | on. Try to cover as many different kinds of outcome as may honestly | occur to you, even if some of them do not appear to you to be |
| W1:26.12 | you will probably find some of them, especially those which | occur to you toward the end, less acceptable to you. Try, however, to |
| W1:35.8 | You should not think of these terms in an abstract way. They will | occur to you as various situations, personalities and events in which |
| W1:35.10 | slowly until something occurs to you. Although nothing that does | occur should be omitted from the exercises, nothing should be “dug |
| W1:42.4 | slowly. After this, try to think of nothing except thoughts which | occur to you in relation to today's idea. You might think, for |
| W1:42.7 | where no thoughts at all seem to come to mind. If such interferences | occur, open your eyes and repeat the thought once more while looking |
| W1:43.8 | repeat today's idea again, and then let whatever relevant thoughts | occur to you add to the idea in your own personal way. Thoughts such |
| W1:43.11 | try the second phase again. Do not allow any protracted period to | occur in which you become preoccupied with irrelevant thoughts. |
| W1:43.15 | throughout the day to various situations and events which may | occur, particularly to those which distress you in any way. For this |
| W1:70.5 | Your purpose was to ensure that healing did not | occur; God's purpose was to ensure that it did. Today we practice |
| W1:108.4 | which appears to be in second place. Here it is understood that both | occur together, that the thought remain complete. And in this |
| W1:136.21 | the body, for the mind is sick. Give instant remedy should this | occur by not allowing your defensiveness to hurt you longer. Do not |
| W1:137.12 | at home, and can this invitation be refused? Ask the inevitable to | occur, and you will never fail. The other choice is but to ask what |

| W1:134.19 | times when you forget its meaning and attack yourself. When this | occurs, allow your mind to see through this illusion as you tell |
| W1:152.1 | that he wants. And no one dies without his own consent. Nothing | occurs but represents your wish, and nothing is omitted that you |

| Tx:1.90 | is the mechanism for behavior. The belief that he could be better | off is the reason why man has this mechanism at his disposal. |
| Tx:2.28 | Dissociation is quite similar. You should split | off or dissociate yourself from error but only in defense of |

| Tx:4.69 | mind holds together. Its control is unconscious. The ego is further | off balance by keeping its primary motivation unconscious and raising |
| Tx:5.84 | in it. This is a dissociated state, because the thinker cuts himself | off from his thoughts. Freud's thought was so conflicted that he |
| Tx:8.53 | Since he can find himself only in them, he has cut himself | off from salvation. |
| Tx:10.33 | Soul because the light He created is one with Him. Would you cut | off a brother from the light that is yours? You would not do so if |
| Tx:11.18 | offerings for Christ, and so they are not fit gifts for you. Take | off the covers and look at what you are afraid of. Only the |
| Tx:11.37 | of your mind, and because of its source, the ego is not wholly split | off, or it could not be believed at all. For it is your mind that |
| Tx:13.50 | and all this has been denied, your thought system is closed | off and wholly separated from the truth. This is an insane world, and |
| Tx:14.17 | love cannot share its healing power, because it has been separated | off and kept in darkness. The sentinels of darkness watch over it |
| Tx:14.22 | meaningless. But He will separate out all that has meaning, dropping | off the rest and offering your true communication to those who would |
| Tx:15.42 | Every thought you would keep hidden shuts communication | off because you would have it so. It is impossible to recognize |
| Tx:16.26 | be outside, where nothing is. You have taught this, and from far | off in the universe, yet not beyond yourself, the witnesses to your |
| Tx:16.32 | value in itself, but as a place of safety from which hatred is split | off and kept apart. The special love partner is acceptable only as |
| Tx:17.17 | on whom vengeance is really sought are centered on and separated | off as being the only parts of value. Every step taken in the making, |
| Tx:17.17 | Every step taken in the making, the maintaining, and the breaking | off of the unholy relationship is a move toward further fragmentation |
| Tx:17.45 | Now it seems to make no sense. Many relationships have been broken | off at this point, and the pursuit of the old goal reestablished in |

| Tx:17.62 | not perceive the situation as a whole. Therefore, it seeks to split | off segments of the situation and deal with them separately, for it |
| Tx:18.7 | senseless substitutions, touched with insanity and swirling lightly | off on a mad course like feathers dancing insanely in the wind, have |
| Tx:18.57 | The body is outside you, and but seems to surround you, shutting you | off from others and keeping you apart from them [and them from you]. |
| Tx:18.84 | it is the tiny part of yourself, the little thought that seems split | off and separate, which the Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in |
| Tx:18.85 | Holy Spirit remove it from the withered kingdom in which you set it | off, surrounded by darkness, guarded by attack, and reinforced by |
| Tx:20.22 | who wandered carelessly into the home of truth, and who will wander | off. He came without a purpose, but he will not remain before the |
| Tx:20.67 | your desire for something else. Open the holy place which you closed | off by valuing the “something else,” and what was never lost will |
| Tx:21.52 | interfered with reason. Reason lies in the other Self you have cut | off from your awareness. And nothing you have allowed to stay in it |
| Tx:22.5 | though you wandered in without a plan of any kind except to wander | off, for only that seems certain. |
| Tx:23.20 | each is separate and has a different set of thoughts which sets him | off from others. This principle evolves from the belief there is a |
| Tx:24.8 | have been given to each other that love might be extended, not cut | off from one another. What you keep is lost to you. God gave you both |
| Tx:24.9 | only partial welcome or would let you think that you are better | off apart. Is it not always your belief your specialness is limited |
| Tx:24.27 | yourself; your enemy, not God's. So does it seem to split you | off from God and make you separate from Him as its defender. You |
| Tx:24.28 | But specialness is not the truth in you. It can be thrown | off balance by anything. What rests on nothing never can be stable. |
| Tx:25.15 | is the frame without its meaning. Its purpose is to set the picture | off and not itself. |
| Tx:25.25 | it is perceived. For specialness it is the perfect frame to set it | off—the perfect battleground to wage its wars, the perfect shelter |
| Tx:25.35 | remote and far away from you. And they go farther and farther | off because the sun in you has risen that they may be pushed away |
| Tx:25.70 | understandable to sinners because they think that justice is split | off from love and stands for something else. |
| Tx:26.1 | All seeming entities can come a little nearer or go a little farther | off but cannot join. |
| Tx:26.3 | The little that the body fences | off becomes the self, preserved through sacrifice of all the rest. |
| Tx:26.26 | that they are one, for nothing stands between to push the other | off. And in the space which sin left vacant do they join as one, in |
| Tx:26.31 | Heaven's song, is difficult to do. But it is hard indeed to wander | off, alone and miserable, down a road which leads to nothing and |
| Tx:26.54 | a little space to you, another little space to him. This separating | off is symbolized in your perception by a body which is clearly |
| Tx:27.3 | writ in Heaven in your blood and death and go before him, closing | off the gate and damning him to hell. Yet this is writ in hell and |
| Tx:27.23 | as the one more innocent than he. This splits his function | off from yours and gives you both a different role. And so you cannot |
| Tx:28.23 | not be the maker of the dream. Effect and cause are first split | off and then reversed, so that effect becomes a cause; the cause, |
| Tx:28.47 | What is a sense of sickness but a sense of limitation? Of a splitting | off and separating from? A gap perceived between [ourselves] and what |
| Tx:28.47 | good is seen outside; the evil, in. And thus is sickness separating | off the self from good and keeping evil in. God is the alternate to |
| Tx:29.4 | of space between two separate bodies. This but seems to be dividing | off your separate minds. It is the symbol of a promise made to meet |
| Tx:29.44 | something more than everything, as if a part of it were separated | off and found where all the rest of it is not. This is the purpose he |
| Tx:29.54 | and fall before His face like a dark veil which seems to shut you | off from Him, alone in darkness. Yet the light is there. A cloud does |
| Tx:29.58 | place of darkness set where all is light, a dismal alcove separated | off from what is endless, has no place to be. An idol is beyond where |
| Tx:29.62 | he who judges will have need of idols which will hold the judgment | off from resting on himself. Nor can he know the Self he has |
| Tx:30.21 | But this much reason have you now attained—you would be better | off if you were wrong. |
| Tx:30.40 | could this be so. For sin is the idea you are alone and separated | off from what is whole. And thus it would be necessary for the search |
| Tx:31.76 | your brother, kept apart by an illusion of yourself which holds him | off from you and you away from him. The sword of judgment is the |
| Tx:31.76 | yourself that it may fight to keep the space that holds your brother | off unoccupied by love. Yet while you hold this sword, you must |
| W1:57.2 | undone if I so choose? My chains are loosened. I can drop them | off merely by desiring to do so. The prison door is open. I can leave |

| W1:68.3 | Shut | off from your Self, which remains aware of its likeness to its |
| W1:74.12 | If you feel yourself slipping | off into withdrawal, quickly repeat the idea for today and try again. |
| W1:76.3 | fluid pushed into your veins through a sharpened needle will ward | off death. You really think you are alone unless another body is with |

| W1:131.5 | he seeks. When he is wrong, he finds correction; when he wanders | off, he is led back to his appointed task. |
| W1:137.1 | on separate states. Sickness is a retreat from others and a shutting | off of joining. It becomes a door that closes on a separate self and |
| W1:137.8 | by its gentle hand is weakness overcome. And minds which were walled | off within a body free to join with other minds, to be forever strong. |
| W1:R4.5 | Their purpose is to show you something else and hold correction | off through self-deceptions made to take its place. |
| W1:154.1 | nor need we do so. These are but attempts to hold decision | off, and to delay commitment to our function. It is not our part to |
| W1:154.6 | major difference in the role of Heaven's messengers which sets them | off from those the world appoints. The messages which they deliver |
| W1:165.6 | to live? Abundance dwells in him, and deprivation cannot cut him | off from God's sustaining love and from his home. |
| W1:R5.3 | If we forget the way, we count upon Your sure remembering. We wander | off, but You will not forget to call us back. Quicken our footsteps |
| W1:183.3 | thoughts. The blind can see; the deaf can hear; the sorrowful cast | off their mourning, and the tears of pain are dried as happy laughter |
| W1:184.1 | of unity. By this you designate its special attributes and set it | off from other things by emphasizing space surrounding it. This space |
| W1:184.2 | This space you see as setting | off all things from one another is the means by which the world's |
| W1:186.9 | a patterning an instant, break apart to group again, and scamper | off. Or like mirages seen above a desert, rising from the dust. |
| W1:193.14 | one day. Let mercy come to you more quickly. Do not try to hold it | off another day, another minute, or another instant. Time was made |
| W1:195.1 | world amiss. The most that they can do is see themselves as better | off than others. And they try to be content because another seems to |
| W1:195.5 | you. Let us not compare ourselves with them, for thus we split them | off in our awareness from the unity we share with them, as they must |
| W2:294.1 | not sick or old or hurt. It is but functionless, unneeded and cast | off. Let me not see it more than this today—of service for a while |
| W2:311.1 | the truth. It separates what it is being used against and sets it | off as if it were a thing apart. And then it makes of it what you |
| W2:324.1 | my appointed path. I cannot lose the way. I can but choose to wander | off a while and then return. Your loving Voice will always call me |
| W2:FL.2 | God Himself appointed. In the dream of time, it seems to be far | off. And yet in truth, it is already here, already serving us as |

| Tx:9.32 | recognize His consistency. What you offer to your brother, you | offer to Him because He cannot go beyond your offering in His giving. |
| Tx:9.37 | but accept one of them, you would not want anything the world has to | offer. Everything else would be totally meaningless. God's meaning is |
| Tx:9.47 | what you want in these terms and accept nothing that you would not | offer to God as wholly fitting for Him, for you do not want anything |
| Tx:9.48 | this, the ego believes that its “enemy” has struck and attempts to | offer gifts to induce you to return to its “protection.” |
| Tx:9.50 | to attack now or to withdraw to attack later. If you accept its | offer of grandiosity, it will attack immediately. If you do not, it |
| Tx:9.69 | fear. In this decision lie joy and peace and the glory of creation. | Offer the Holy Spirit only your will to remember, for He retains the |
| Tx:9.81 | as you accept. You could accept peace now for everyone you meet and | offer them perfect freedom from all illusions because you heard. But |
| Tx:9.100 | and you are of God. Would He allow Himself to suffer? And would He | offer His Son anything that is not acceptable to Him? |
| Tx:10.4 | will also have looked upon ours. I come to you from our Father to | offer you everything again. Do not refuse it in order to keep a dark |
| Tx:10.21 | willingness need not be perfect, because His is. If you will merely | offer Him a little place, He will lighten it so much that you will |
| Tx:11.3 | to give it to him, for this and only this is what he is asking for. | Offer him anything else, and you are assuming the right to attack his |
| Tx:11.16 | Perceive in sickness but another call for love and | offer your brother what he believes he cannot offer himself. Whatever |
| Tx:11.16 | call for love and offer your brother what he believes he cannot | offer himself. Whatever the sickness, there is but one remedy. You |
| Tx:11.16 | the call for love. And to give a brother what he really wants is to | offer it unto yourself, for your Father wills you to know your |
| Tx:11.23 | and carefully planned program aimed at learning how to | offer to the Holy Spirit everything you do not want. He knows what to |
| Tx:11.52 | divided, and the means and the end are in complete accord. You need | offer only undivided attention. Everything else will be given you. |
| Tx:11.77 | For if love is sharing, how can you find it except through itself? | Offer it and it will come to you because it is drawn to itself. But |
| Tx:11.77 | Offer it and it will come to you because it is drawn to itself. But | offer attack and it will remain hidden, for it can live only in peace. |
| Tx:11.81 | What is not real cannot be seen and has no value. God could not | offer His Son what has no value, nor could His Son receive it. You |
| Tx:12.16 | need of healing cannot be denied. Not all the tricks and games you | offer it can heal it, for here is the real crucifixion of God's Son. |
| Tx:12.37 | of fear you have invited into it, and all the love your brothers | offer you, you do not see. As you look with open eyes upon your |
| Tx:12.39 | Little children, would you | offer this to your Father? For if you offer it to yourself, you are |
| Tx:12.39 | Little children, would you offer this to your Father? For if you | offer it to yourself, you are offering it to Him. And He will not |
| Tx:12.40 | welcomes all of us in gladness, and gladness is what we should | offer Him. For every Son of God is given you to whom God gave |
| Tx:12.40 | given you to whom God gave Himself. And it is God to Whom you must | offer them to recognize His gift to you. |
| Tx:12.54 | for it, and in their joy, they shine with holy thanks. And this they | offer you, who gave them joy. They are your guides to joy, for having |
| Tx:12.64 | errors for the peace of God is but your will. And Christ will always | offer you the Will of God in recognition that you share it with Him. |
| Tx:12.67 | nothing fearful, and because of this, they are the welcome that you | offer knowledge. Love waits on welcome, not on time, and the real |
| Tx:13.5 | the miracle of creation; that it is one forever. Every miracle you | offer to the Son of God is but the true perception of one aspect of |
| Tx:13.6 | all the same; all beautiful and equal in their holiness. And He will | offer them unto His Father as they were offered unto Him. There is |
| Tx:13.7 | gift you can bestow, and your Father's gift you cannot lose. | Offer Christ's gift to everyone and everywhere, for miracles offered |
| Tx:13.16 | truth of guiltlessness unto yourself. In every condemnation that you | offer the Son of God lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you |
| Tx:13.16 | If you would have the Holy Spirit make you free of it, accept His | offer of Atonement for all your brothers. For so you learn that it is |
| Tx:13.31 | upon his purity and be still. In quiet look upon his holiness and | offer thanks unto his Father that no guilt has ever touched him. |
| Tx:13.33 | you. I love all that He created, and all my faith and my belief I | offer unto it. My faith in you is strong as all the love I give my |
| Tx:13.33 | for your loveliness and for the many gifts that you will let me | offer to the Kingdom in honor of its wholeness, which is of God. |
| Tx:13.48 | can learn to bless and cannot give what you have not. If, then, you | offer blessing, it must have come first to yourself. And you must |
| Tx:13.49 | That is why your miracles | offer you the testimony that you are blessed. If what you offer is |
| Tx:13.49 | miracles offer you the testimony that you are blessed. If what you | offer is complete forgiveness, you must have let guilt go, accepting |
| Tx:13.58 | make but need to learn. Your faith in nothing is deceiving you. | Offer your faith to Me, and I will place it gently in the holy place |
| Tx:13.65 | of value, each representing an escape from what the other does not | offer you. You do not want either alone, for without both, you do not |
| Tx:13.69 | happiness that comes from choosing to be free of guilt. Everyone you | offer healing to returns it. Everyone you attack keeps it and |
| Tx:13.69 | will make no difference; you will think he does. It is impossible to | offer what you do not want without this penalty. The cost of giving |
| Tx:13.72 | in place of all the happy teaching the Holy Spirit would gladly | offer him. |
| Tx:13.75 | Would you be content with little, which is all that you alone can | offer yourself, when He Who gives you everything will simply offer it |
| Tx:13.75 | can offer yourself, when He Who gives you everything will simply | offer it to you? He will never ask what you have done to make you |
| Tx:13.90 | thus are darkness and deceit undone. Fail not yourself, but instead | offer to God and you His blameless Son. For this small gift of |
| Tx:14.33 | be replaced by gifts wholly acceptable to Father and to Son. Can you | offer guilt to God? You cannot, then, offer it to His Son. For they |
| Tx:14.33 | to Father and to Son. Can you offer guilt to God? You cannot, then, | offer it to His Son. For they are not apart, and gifts to one are |
| Tx:14.45 | without regard for what is brought to it. Those who have learned to | offer only healing because of the reflection of holiness in them are |
| Tx:14.57 | Nor will the power of all His love be absent from any miracle you | offer to His Son. How, then, can there be any order of difficulty |
| Tx:14.66 | His rightful place in your awareness the instant you abandon it and | offer it to Him. |
| Tx:15.7 | threat, for it would have its worshipers still believe that it can | offer the escape from it. But the belief in guilt must lead to the |
| Tx:15.12 | be willing to give Him this than for Him to use this tiny instant to | offer you the whole of Heaven. In exchange for this instant, He |
| Tx:15.13 | of release is yours. Miracles are the instants of release you | offer and will receive. They attest to your willingness to be |
| Tx:15.13 | will receive. They attest to your willingness to be released and to | offer time to the Holy Spirit for His use of it. How long is an |
| Tx:15.14 | is your instantaneous escape from guilt. You must be holy if you | offer holiness. How long is an instant? As long as it takes to |
| Tx:15.15 | be remembered for you in that shining instant of perfect release. | Offer the miracle of the holy instant through the Holy Spirit and |
| Tx:15.16 | will let go all your past learning, and the Holy Spirit will quickly | offer you the whole lesson of peace. What can take time, when all the |
| Tx:15.23 | for you will have judged yourself unworthy of it. And whatever you | offer as a substitute is much too poor a gift to satisfy you. It is |
| Tx:15.27 | minds, untouched by every little gift the world of littleness would | offer you. But for this, you cannot side against Him in what He wills |
| Tx:15.32 | have learned to accept what you are, you will make no more gifts to | offer to yourselves, for you will know you are complete, in need of |
| Tx:15.47 | it? To believe that special relationships, with special love, can | offer you salvation is the belief that separation is salvation. For |
| Tx:15.49 | under His care and be sure that it will not result in pain if you | offer Him your willingness to have it serve no need but His. All the |
| Tx:15.54 | needs them all equally, and so do you. In time you have been told to | offer miracles as Christ directs and let the Holy Spirit bring to you |
| Tx:15.57 | in you. And so you seek without for what you cannot find without. I | offer you my perfect faith in you in place of all your doubt. But |
| Tx:15.69 | truly. For it is certain that, if you will look at them, you will | offer them gladly to Him. What He can make of them, you do not know, |
| Tx:15.79 | of Him what the truth must be. He is swift to utilize whatever you | offer Him on behalf of this. His concern and care for you are |
| Tx:15.89 | you would see without the limits the ego would impose on them can | offer you the gift of freedom. |
| Tx:15.93 | his unlimited power is thus restored to him. What other gift can you | offer me, when only this I will to offer you? And to see me is to see |
| Tx:15.93 | to him. What other gift can you offer me, when only this I will to | offer you? And to see me is to see me in everyone and offer everyone |
| Tx:15.93 | this I will to offer you? And to see me is to see me in everyone and | offer everyone the gift you offer me. I am as incapable of receiving |
| Tx:15.93 | to see me is to see me in everyone and offer everyone the gift you | offer me. I am as incapable of receiving sacrifice as God is, and |
| Tx:15.93 | And by this limitation, you have limited acceptance of the gift I | offer you. |
| Tx:15.99 | appease this savage guest, for it is an invader who but seems to | offer kindness, but always to make the sacrifice complete. |
| Tx:15.108 | peace by demanding no sacrifice of anyone, for so will you | offer me the love I offer you. What can be more joyous than to |
| Tx:15.108 | no sacrifice of anyone, for so will you offer me the love I | offer you. What can be more joyous than to perceive we are deprived |
| Tx:16.6 | The triumph of weakness is not what you would | offer to a brother. And yet you know no triumph but this. This is not |
| Tx:16.6 | your role with His, for this will never bring peace to anyone. | Offer your empathy to Him, for it is His perception and His strength |
| Tx:16.6 | is His perception and His strength that you would share. And let Him | offer you His strength and His perception to be shared through you. |
| Tx:16.25 | Spirit, and their power and gratitude to you for their creation they | offer gladly to your teaching of yourself, who is their home. You who |
| Tx:16.37 | without which you could never be complete. No specialness can | offer you what God has given and what you are joined with Him in |
| Tx:17.15 | no one not obsessed with keeping separation could hear them. They | offer you the “reasons” why you should enter into unholy alliances |
| Tx:17.24 | let go. And what is thus let go is all the truth the past could ever | offer to the present as witnesses for its reality, while what is kept |
| Tx:17.26 | me. Let me enter in the Name of God and bring you peace that you may | offer peace to me. |
| Tx:17.33 | defend. The underlying basis for their effectiveness is that they | offer what they defend. What they defend is placed in them for |
| Tx:17.56 | this, you will have also learned how to release all the Sonship and | offer it in gladness and thanksgiving to Him Who gave you your |
| Tx:18.36 | to those who think that they must first atone, but only to those who | offer it nothing more than simple willingness to make way for it. |
| Tx:18.42 | the Holy Spirit's help. That is His function. Your part is only to | offer Him a little willingness to let Him remove all fear and hatred |
| Tx:18.46 | of your relationship is threatened by anything, stop instantly and | offer the Holy Spirit your willingness in spite of fear to let Him |
| Tx:18.48 | for us to share it now. And so I choose this instant as the one to | offer to the Holy Spirit, that His blessing may descend on us and |
| Tx:19.10 | Atonement for yourself and would therefore share it. By faith you | offer the gift of freedom from the past, which you received. You do |
| Tx:19.12 | and is the sign you share it with Him. Faith is a gift you | offer to the Son of God through Him, and wholly acceptable to his |
| Tx:19.13 | altar where the grace was given, in which it stands. Do you, then, | offer grace and blessing to each other, for you stand at the same |
| Tx:19.32 | as mightier than God, before which God Himself must bow and | offer His creation to its conqueror. Is this humility or madness? |
| Tx:19.38 | you, but of this you can be sure: the Holy Spirit asks that you | offer Him a resting-place where you will rest in Him. He answered you |
| Tx:19.53 | found, to share them lovingly with you. Be not afraid of them. They | offer you salvation. Theirs are the messages of safety, for they see |
| Tx:19.57 | Yet would I | offer you my body, you whom I love, knowing its littleness? Or would |
| Tx:19.98 | And let us join in faith that He Who brought us here together will | offer you the innocence you need and that you will accept it for my |
| Tx:19.103 | crucified by sin, and waiting for release from pain. Would you not | offer him forgiveness, when only he can offer it to you? For his |
| Tx:19.103 | from pain. Would you not offer him forgiveness, when only he can | offer it to you? For his redemption, he will give you yours as surely |
| Tx:19.104 | There is no grace of Heaven that you cannot | offer to each other and receive from your most holy Friend. Let him |
| Tx:19.104 | most holy Friend. Let him withhold it not, for by receiving it you | offer it to him. [For he will receive of you what you received of |
| Tx:19.105 | Think who your brother is before you would condemn him. And | offer thanks to God that he is holy and has been given the gift of |
| Tx:19.106 | the Holy Spirit for both of you. And be you free together, as you | offer to the Holy Spirit this same gift. And giving it, receive it of |
| Tx:19.107 | look on you, and overlook the sins he thinks he sees within himself. | Offer each other freedom and complete release from sin here in the |
| Tx:19.108 | Heaven is the gift you owe each other, the debt of gratitude you | offer to the Son of God in thanks for what he is and what his Father |
| Tx:20.2 | And we honor the perfect purity of the Son of God and not his sins. | Offer each other the gift of lilies, not the crown of thorns; the |
| Tx:20.5 | your brother to you and to attract his body's eyes? Learn you but | offer him a crown of thorns, not recognizing it for what it is and |
| Tx:20.6 | bodies if they be truly given and received. For bodies can neither | offer nor accept; hold out nor take. Only the mind can value, and |
| Tx:20.7 | is. Forget not that it is your savior to whom the gift is offered. | Offer him thorns and you are crucified. Offer him lilies and it is |
| Tx:20.7 | to whom the gift is offered. Offer him thorns and you are crucified. | Offer him lilies and it is yourself you free. |
| Tx:20.8 | need for lilies, for the Son of God has not forgiven me. And can I | offer him forgiveness when he offers thorns to me? For he who offers |
| Tx:20.8 | the altar in your chosen home and see what you have laid upon it to | offer me. If it be thorns whose points gleam sharply in a blood-red |
| Tx:20.8 | light, the body is your chosen home, and it is separation that you | offer me. And yet the thorns are gone. Look you still closer at them |
| Tx:20.15 | each other's holy altar where the strength and freedom wait, to | offer and receive the bright awareness that leads you home. The lamp |
| Tx:20.42 | harmony already. Here is the perfect faith that you will one day | offer to each other already offered you. And here the limitless |
| Tx:20.43 | And yet, have faith that He Who sees the gift in both of you will | offer and receive it for you both. And through His vision will you |
| Tx:20.44 | in him. What is he, that the Creator of the universe should | offer it to him and know it rests in safety? He looks upon himself |
| Tx:20.48 | idols thrive. The rest it merely throws away, for all that it could | offer is seen as valueless. Homeless, the ego seeks as many bodies as |
| Tx:20.55 | upon oblivion. Here does the Son of God stop briefly by to | offer his devotion to death's idols, and then pass on. And here he is |
| Tx:20.58 | of you. It is impossible to imagine one that asks so little or could | offer more. |
| Tx:21.13 | have your whole relationship transformed to joy; the little gift you | offer to the Holy Spirit for which He gives you everything; the very |
| Tx:21.17 | to Him Who must decide for God for you. This is the little gift you | offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give |
| Tx:21.31 | What faith you give to sin you take away from holiness. And what you | offer holiness has been removed from sin. |
| Tx:22.42 | given to everyone. For you are here to let it be received. God's | offer still is open, yet it waits acceptance. From you who have |
| Tx:22.44 | How easy is it to | offer this miracle to everyone! No one who has received it for |
| Tx:22.59 | which can be extended. Save no dark secrets that He cannot use, but | offer Him the tiny gifts He can extend forever. He will take each one |
| Tx:22.59 | gift of love a source of healing for everyone. Each little gift you | offer to the other lights up the world. Be not concerned with |
| Tx:23.46 | to murder and to die. Think you the form that murder takes can | offer safety? Can guilt be absent from a battlefield? [Do not remain |
| Tx:23.48 | hold the universe? Can it create and be what it creates? And can it | offer its creations all that it is and never suffer loss? |
| Tx:23.54 | suffer change of any kind. Perhaps you think the battleground can | offer something that you can win. Can it be anything that offers you |
| Tx:23.55 | for on the battleground is of the body—something it seems to | offer or to own. No one who knows that he has everything could seek |
| Tx:24.25 | The key you threw away God gave your brother, whose holy hands would | offer it to you when you were ready to accept His plan for your |
| Tx:24.45 | thing that He beholds and loves. And seeks it still, that each might | offer you the love of God. |
| Tx:24.47 | this: the holy Lord of Heaven has Himself come down to you to | offer you your own completion. What is His is yours because in your |
| Tx:24.57 | and without accomplishment of any kind, is all the other choice can | offer you. Futility of function not fulfilled will haunt you while |
| Tx:24.71 | purpose. Not identical, not even like, but still a means to | offer to the “father” what he wants. Such is the travesty on God's |
| Tx:25.20 | not be glad if you appreciate His masterpiece? What could He do but | offer thanks to you who love His Son as He does? Would He not make |
| Tx:25.23 | other law than this. The rest but stems from this, to hold it up and | offer it support. This is perception's form adapted to this world of |
| Tx:25.29 | from the belief there are two ways to see. This world has much to | offer to your peace and many chances to extend your own forgiveness. |
| Tx:25.29 | to those who want to see peace and forgiveness descend on them and | offer them the light. |
| Tx:25.35 | your peace can never fall away and leave you homeless. Those who | offer peace to everyone have found a home in Heaven the world cannot |
| Tx:25.41 | you perceive it! And how great will be your joy, when he is free to | offer you the gift of sight God gave to him for you! He has no need |
| Tx:25.58 | does his sinfulness and all the sin he sees within the world | offer him less and less— until he comes to understand it cost him |
| Tx:25.73 | Son He loves and would protect from all unfairness you might seek to | offer, believing vengeance is his proper due. |
| Tx:26.17 | away and disappear. For it is not your Father's Will that you should | offer or receive less than He gave when He created you in perfect |
| Tx:27.3 | beyond attack and prove his innocence. The picture of yourself you | offer him you show yourself and give it all your faith. The Holy |
| Tx:27.17 | it has never suffered pain because of him. And in its healing can it | offer him mute testimony of his innocence. It is this testimony which |
| Tx:27.17 | tongues. For here is his forgiveness proved to him. A miracle can | offer nothing less to him than it has given unto you. So does your |
| Tx:27.39 | illusions, which of them are true? Which ones establish peace and | offer joy? And which can bring escape from all the pain of which this |
| Tx:27.44 | ask another to be healed. But he can let himself be healed and thus | offer the other what he has received. Who can bestow upon another |
| Tx:28.12 | instant given Him. For in that instant is His memory allowed to | offer all its treasures to the Son of God, for whom they have been |
| Tx:28.12 | to the Son of God, for whom they have been kept. How gladly does He | offer them unto the one for whom He has been given them! And His |
| Tx:28.23 | they adopted as their own. And hate it for the vengeance it would | offer them. It is their vengeance on the body which appears to prove |
| Tx:29.7 | seen as treacherous because it seems to come and go uncertainly and | offer no stability to you. You do not see how limited and weak is |
| Tx:29.32 | peace in you can but be found in him. And every thought of love you | offer him but brings you nearer to your wakening to peace eternal and |
| Tx:29.50 | this idol can be saved. Salvation thus appears to threaten life and | offer death. |
| Tx:29.59 | he worshiped them and still attempts to seek for one that yet might | offer him a gift reality does not contain. Each worshiper of idols |
| Tx:30.31 | advisor for yourself and for the world as well. The day you want you | offer to the world, for it will be what you have asked for and will |
| Tx:30.56 | are for nothing. And the Son of God can have no need of them. They | offer him no single thing that he could ever want. He is delivered |
| Tx:30.70 | on this forgiveness rests and is but natural. You are not asked to | offer pardon where attack is due and would be justified. For this |
| Tx:30.85 | would perceive it everywhere, unchanged by circumstance. And so you | offer it to all events, and let them offer you stability. |
| Tx:30.85 | by circumstance. And so you offer it to all events, and let them | offer you stability. |
| Tx:30.93 | is a miracle already there to heal all things that change and | offer them to you to see in happy form, devoid of fear. It will be |
| Tx:31.33 | There is a tendency to think the world can | offer consolation and escape from problems which its purpose is to |
| Tx:31.34 | Real choice is no illusion. But the world has none to | offer. All its roads but lead to disappointment, nothingness, and |
| Tx:31.35 | before you really learn they are but one. The roads this world can | offer seem to be quite large in number, but the time must come when |
| Tx:31.38 | The learning that the world can | offer but one choice, no matter what its form may be, is the |
| Tx:31.70 | when you have reached the world beyond the sight your eyes alone can | offer you to see. For you will not interpret what you see without the |
| Tx:31.72 | your hand that you may have the gift of kind forgiveness which you | offer one whose need for it is just the same as yours. And let the |
| Tx:31.73 | let it serve the function given you to bring you peace that you may | offer peace to have it yours. Alternatives are in your mind to use, |
| Tx:31.95 | of what they are and will forever be. They will accept the gift I | offer them because You gave it me on their behalf. And as I would but |
| W1:37.9 | to use the idea if anyone seems to cause an adverse reaction in you. | Offer him the blessing of your holiness immediately that you may |
| W1:71.4 | Another person will yet serve better; another situation will yet | offer success. |
| W1:75.3 | Our exercises for today will be happy ones in which we | offer thanks for the passing of the old and the beginning of the new. |
| W1:77.1 | are. You will receive miracles because of what God is. And you will | offer miracles because you are one with God. Again, how simple is |
| W1:89.4 | I am entitled. Let me not hold a grievance against you [name], but | offer you the miracle that belongs to you instead. Seen truly, this |
| W1:92.9 | The strength in you will | offer you the light and guide your seeing, so you do not dwell on |
| W1:96.16 | minutes of the hour seeking Him Who joins your mind and Self, you | offer Him another treasure to be kept for you. |
| W1:97.4 | count on Him Who promised to lay timelessness beside them. He will | offer all His strength to every little effort which you make. |
| W1:97.11 | Offer each practice period today gladly to Him. And He will speak to | |
| W1:97.12 | else. The Holy Spirit gives you peace today. Receive His words, and | offer them to Him. |
| W1:98.4 | will be with us—all who took the stand we take today will gladly | offer us all that they learned and every gain they made. Those still |
| W1:98.6 | Here is an | offer guaranteeing you your full release from pain of every kind and |
| W1:98.11 | period you share with Him, exchanging every instant of the time you | offer Him for timelessness and peace. |
| W1:99.4 | hold the truth inviolate, yet recognize the need illusions bring and | offer means by which they are undone without attack and with no touch |
| W1:104.6 | Then lay aside the conflicts of the world that | offer other gifts and other goals made of illusions, witnessed to by |
| W1:105.8 | My brother, peace and joy I | offer you, that I may have God's peace and joy as mine. |
| W1:105.13 | My brother, peace and joy I | offer you, that I may have God's peace and joy as mine. |
| W1:106.2 | of the dead which tell you they have found the source of life and | offer it to you for your belief. Attend them not, but listen to the |
| W1:106.6 | Hear Him today, and | offer Him your voice to speak to all the multitudes who wait to hear |
| W1:108.7 | we cannot miss. To give is to receive. Today we will attempt to | offer peace to everyone and see how quickly peace returns to us. |
| W1:108.11 | To everyone I | offer quietness. To everyone I offer peace of mind. To everyone I |
| W1:108.11 | To everyone I offer quietness. To everyone I | offer peace of mind. To everyone I offer gentleness. |
| W1:108.11 | I offer quietness. To everyone I offer peace of mind. To everyone I | offer gentleness. |
| W1:109.10 | today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to take his rest and | offer it to you. |
| W1:R3.4 | litanies to them. They gave you nothing. But your practicing can | offer everything to you. And so accept its offering and be at peace. |
| W1:R3.7 | faith that you would see their messages and use them for yourself. | Offer them to your mind in that same trust and confidence and faith. |
| W1:121.5 | mind is in despair, without the prospect of a future which can | offer anything but more despair. Yet it regards its judgment of the |
| W1:121.12 | you your savior, saved and saving, healed and whole. Then let him | offer you the light you see in him and let your “enemy” and friend |
| W1:123.6 | the thanks of God today, as you give thanks to Him. For He would | offer you the thanks you give, since He receives your gifts in loving |
| W1:123.7 | Receive His thanks and | offer yours to Him for 15 minutes twice today. And you will realize |
| W1:123.7 | to Him for 15 minutes twice today. And you will realize to Whom you | offer thanks, and Whom He thanks as you are thanking Him. This holy |
| W1:124.9 | minute like a diamond set around the mirror that this exercise will | offer you. And you will see Christ's face upon it, in reflection of |
| W1:128.1 | The world you see has nothing that you need to | offer you, nothing that you can use in any way, nor anything at all |
| W1:128.4 | delay and pain, one moment of uncertainty and doubt. The worthless | offer nothing. Certainty of worth cannot be found in worthlessness. |
| W1:129.1 | joy, and capable of offering you peace. Think you this world can | offer that to you? |

| W1:133.8 | has been deceived by the illusion loss can offer gain. Yet loss must | offer loss and nothing more. |
| W1:134.6 | forgiveness natural and wholly sane, a deep relief to those who | offer it; a quiet blessing where it is received. It does not |
| W1:135.11 | only real defense. Yet is this where you look for its defense? You | offer it protection of a kind from which it gains no benefit at all |
| W1:135.19 | good? Perhaps you have misunderstood His plan, for He would never | offer pain to you. But your defenses did not let you see His loving |
| W1:137.12 | Would you not | offer shelter to God's Will? You but invite your Self to be at home, |
| W1:137.13 | to receive a gift like this? Is not a little time a small expense to | offer for the gift of everything? |
| W1:137.16 | imagined. Now we come together to make well all that was sick and | offer blessing where there was attack. Nor will we let this function |
| W1:138.5 | through learning how to reach them, what they are, and what they | offer you. Decisions are the outcome of your learning, for they rest |
| W1:140.14 | and with peace so deep that no illusion can disturb our minds nor | offer proof to us that it is real. This will we learn today. And we |
| W1:R4.6 | understand the lessons that we read and see the meaning which they | offer us. |
| W1:R4.7 | of your mind to learn what each idea you will review that day can | offer you in freedom and in peace. Open your mind and clear it of all |
| W1:151.3 | can you judge? Your judgment rests upon the witness that your senses | offer you. Yet witness never falser was than this. But how else do |
| W1:153.11 | has been accomplished. For you will not see the light until you | offer it to all your brothers. As they take it from your hands, so |
| W1:153.16 | At times, perhaps, a minute, even less, will be the most that we can | offer as the hour strikes. Sometimes we will forget. At other times |
| W1:154.9 | for that is part of your appointed role. He has not failed to | offer what you need, nor has it been left unaccepted. Yet another |
| W1:155.12 | of your full intent? What way could give you more than everything or | offer less and still content the holy Son of God? We walk to God. The |
| W1:156.4 | because of you. All things that live bring gifts to you and | offer them in gratitude and gladness at your feet. The scent of |
| W1:157.6 | like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in our eyes which we can | offer everyone that he may come the sooner to the same experience in |
| W1:158.10 | provides another chance to let Christ's vision shine on you and | offer you the peace of God. |
| W1:160.9 | Today we | offer thanks that Christ has come to search the world for what |
| W1:161.1 | and take a stand against our anger, that our fears may disappear and | offer room to love. Here is salvation in the simple words in which we |
| W1:164.8 | as we behold it in the light in which our Savior looks on us and | offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving vision, now our |
| W1:164.8 | a clean and open space within your mind where Christ can come and | offer you the treasure of salvation. He has need of your most holy |
| W1:166.12 | The gifts you have are not for you alone. What He has come to | offer you, you now must learn to give. This is the lesson that His |
| W1:166.15 | Betray it not. Become the living proof of what Christ's touch can | offer everyone. God has entrusted all His gifts to you. Be witness in |
| W1:169.7 | but this is now at hand. We do not hasten it, in that what you will | offer was concealed from Him Who teaches what forgiveness means. All |
| W1:R5.3 | walk more certainly and quickly unto You. And we accept the Word You | offer us to unify our practicing, as we review the thoughts that You |
| W1:183.10 | same release you found. You can remember what the world forgot and | offer it your own remembering. You can accept today the part you play |
| W1:185.5 | Now he seeks to go beyond them, recognizing that another dream would | offer nothing more than all the others. Dreams are one to him. And he |
| W1:185.7 | in the place of shifting dreams which seem to change in what they | offer, but are one in nothingness. |
| W1:186.4 | have us do. We do not doubt our adequacy for the function He will | offer us. We will be certain only that He knows our strengths, our |
| W1:187.9 | your brother offers you are laid upon your altar, with the ones you | offer him beside them. Who could fear to look upon such lovely |
| W1:187.11 | anything we look upon. And to ensure this holy sight is ours, we | offer it to everything we see. For where we see it, it will be |
| W1:188.4 | the light in you shine brighter, adding to the gifts you have to | offer to the world. |
| W1:195.2 | It is insane to | offer thanks because of suffering. But it is equally insane to fail |
| W1:195.4 | You do not | offer God your gratitude because your brother is more slave than you, |
| W1:195.4 | And gratitude can only be sincere if it is joined to love. We | offer thanks to God our Father that in us all things will find their |
| W1:195.6 | completion. We give thanks for every living thing, for otherwise we | offer thanks for nothing and we fail to recognize the gifts of God to |
| W1:195.7 | their tired heads against our shoulders as they rest a while. We | offer thanks for them. For if we can direct them to the peace that we |
| W1:197.3 | The world must thank you when you | offer it release from your illusions. Yet your thanks belong to you |
| W1:197.9 | God has given you. But never think that He has ever ceased to | offer thanks to you. |
| W1:R6.11 | To Him I | offer this review for you. I place you in His charge and let Him |
| W1:R6.11 | to be available to you each time you call to Him to help you. Let us | offer Him the whole review we now begin, and let us also not forget |
| W1:212.1 | vain illusions of the world. Only the function God has given me can | offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this will I accept as mine. |
| W2:I.4 | earned Him the invitation that He seeks to make us happy? We will | offer it, and it will be accepted. So our times with Him will now be |
| W2:236.2 | and closed today to every thought but Yours. I rule my mind and | offer it to You. Accept my gift, for it is Yours to me. |
| W2:253.2 | is but Your will in perfect union with my own, which can but | offer glad assent to Yours that It may be extended to itself. |
| W2:258.1 | in our minds, obscured but by our pointless little goals which | offer nothing and do not exist. Shall we continue to allow God's |
| W2:270.2 | to everyone. Christ is our eyes today. And through His sight, we | offer healing to the world through Him, the holy Son whom God created |
| W2:WIHS.3 | by which you would attain what is forever unattainable. And if you | offer them to Him, He will employ the means you made for exile to |
| W2:283.2 | as our only Source and everything created part of us. And so we | offer blessing to all things, uniting lovingly with all the world, |
| W2:291.2 | This day my mind is quiet to receive the thoughts You | offer me. And I accept what comes from You instead of from myself. I |
| W2:295.1 | eyes today and thus redeem the world. He asks this gift that He may | offer peace of mind to me and take away all terror and all pain. And |
| W2:304.2 | salvation for the world. It is Your gift, my Father, given me to | offer to Your holy Son that he may find again the memory of You and |
| W2:306.1 | What but Christ's vision would I use today when it can | offer me a day in which I see a world so like to Heaven that an |
| W2:312.1 | therefore see what you would look upon. For vision merely serves to | offer you what you would have. It is impossible to overlook what you |
| W2:315.2 | God. My brothers are unlimited in all their gifts to me. Now may I | offer them my thankfulness that gratitude to them may lead me on to |
| W2:318.2 | Let me today, my Father, take the role You | offer me in Your request that I accept Atonement for myself. For thus |
| W2:325.1 | a gentle world comes forth, with mercy for the holy Son of God, to | offer him a kindly home where he can rest a while before he journeys |
| W2:330.1 | and thus escape forever from all things the dream of fear appears to | offer us. |
| W2:332.2 | the means to set it free. Father, we would release it now. For as we | offer freedom, it is given us. And we would not remain as prisoners |
| W2:339.2 | but hear Your Voice in everything I do; requesting only what You | offer me, accepting only thoughts You share with me. |
| W2:344.1 | or is or will be. Who can share a dream? And what can an illusion | offer me? Yet he whom I forgive will give me gifts beyond the worth |
| W2:345.2 | Peace to all seeking hearts today. The light has come to | offer miracles to bless the tired world. It will find rest today, for |
| W2:345.2 | to bless the tired world. It will find rest today, for we will | offer what we have received. |
| W2:357.1 | Forgiveness, truth's reflection, tells me how to | offer miracles and thus escape the prison house in which I think I |
| W2:358.1 | Voice, my Father, then is mine as well, and all I want is what You | offer me, in just the form You chose that it be mine. Let me remember |
| W2:FL.4 | Heaven of His peace. And shall we not forgive our brother who can | offer this to us? He is the way, the truth, and life that show the |
| M:5.9 | to turn away from death. Behold, you Son of God, what life can | offer you. Would you choose sickness in place of this? |
| M:11.4 | to those who look on war. Peace is inevitable to those who | offer peace. How easily, then, is your judgment of the world escaped! |
| M:15.4 | that end be soon. It is your function to hold it to your heart and | offer it to all the world to keep it safe. |
| M:21.5 | he would leave behind. Judge not the words that come to you, but | offer them in confidence. They are far wiser than your own. God's |
| M:22.5 | he has refused to accept the Atonement for himself and can hardly | offer it to his brother in Christ's Name. He will, in fact, be unable |
| M:22.6 | The | offer of Atonement is universal. It is equally applicable to all |

| Tx:22.22 | life or death; either you are each other's savior or his judge, | offering him sanctuary or condemnation. This course will be believed |

| Tx:25.87 | the same for everyone, because it sees no differences in them. Its | offering is universal, and it teaches but one message: |
| Tx:27.16 | merely errors. Let yourself be healed that you may be forgiving, | offering salvation to your brother and yourself. A broken body shows |
| Tx:27.76 | He represents his Father, Whom you see as | offering both life and death to you. Brother, He gives but life. Yet |
| Tx:29.30 | Because He loves the dreamer not the dream, each dream becomes an | offering of love. For at its center is His love for you, which lights |

| W1:129.1 | it for what is far more satisfying, filled with joy, and capable of | offering you peace. Think you this world can offer that to you? |
| W1:133.7 | value that is real. What fades and dies was never there and makes no | offering to him who chooses it. He is deceived by nothing in a form |
| W1:137.10 | Perhaps you will not recognize them all, nor realize how great your | offering to all the world when you let healing come to you. But you |

| W1:182.9 | you might learn of Him how strong is he who comes without defenses, | offering only love's messages to those who think he is their enemy. |
| W1:197.3 | Your gratitude is all your gifts require that they be a lasting | offering of a thankful heart released from hell forever. Is it this |
| W1:198.14 | could give him gifts when everything is his? And who could dream of | offering forgiveness to the Son of Sinlessness Itself, so like to Him |
| W2:279.1 | I wait in chains which have been severed for release, when God is | offering me freedom now? |
| W2:306.2 | open hearts and minds, asking but what You give. We cannot make an | offering sufficient for Your Son. But in Your Love, the gift of |
| W2:332.1 | with forgiveness does the light shine through the dream of darkness, | offering it hope and giving it the means to realize the freedom that |
| W2:334.1 | Let me not accept such meager gifts again today. God's Voice is | offering the peace of God to all who hear and choose to follow Him. |
| W2:334.2 | nothing less than this. What then can be his solace but what You are | offering to his bewildered mind and frightened heart, to give him |
| M:7.2 | therefore hate. His position has thus become untenable, for he is | offering hate to one to whom he offered love. This is impossible. |
| M:7.6 | because you have denied the Source of your creation. If you are | offering only healing, you cannot doubt. If you really want the |
offerings (11) | ||
| Tx:4.100 | to accept such thanks and no perception with which to judge such | offerings. But unless you take your part in the creation, His joy is |
| Tx:11.18 | Let us not save nightmares, for they are not fitting | offerings for Christ, and so they are not fit gifts for you. Take off |
| Tx:12.8 | it for yourself. You have recognized the futility of the ego and its | offerings, but though you do not want the ego, you do not look upon |
| Tx:14.37 | your altars, for nothing can coexist beside it. Here your meager | offerings are brought together with the gift of God, and only what is |
| Tx:15.30 | lives in you, your poor appreciation of yourself and all the little | offerings you have given slip into nothingness. Holy Child of God, |
| Tx:20.5 | all the useless things made for its eyes to see. Think on the many | offerings made for its pleasure and remember all these were made to |
| Tx:20.48 | what they are, it does not even see. It wants them solely for the | offerings on which its idols thrive. The rest it merely throws away, |
| Tx:23.55 | everything could seek for limitation, nor could he value the body's | offerings. The senselessness of conquest is quite apparent from the |
| W1:127.7 | not hold it dear. Withdraw all value you have placed upon its meager | offerings and senseless gifts, and let the gift of God replace them |
| W1:192.3 | in them. And eyes already opening behold the joyful sights their | offerings contain. |

| Tx:4.62 | for the temptations of the ego and do not be deceived by it. Know it | offers you nothing. When you have given up this voluntary |
| Tx:4.105 | is an attitude of praising God as He Himself knows praise. He | offers praise to you, and you must offer it to others. The chief |
| Tx:5.72 | the belief that you cannot escape from it. But you can and must. God | offers you the continuity of eternity in exchange. When you choose to |
| Tx:6.37 | Wherever He looks He sees Himself, and because He is united, He | offers the whole Kingdom always. This is the one message God gave to |
| Tx:7.61 | If you will keep in mind what the Holy Spirit | offers you, you cannot be vigilant for anything but God and His |
| Tx:8.2 | His Will, how can you have knowledge? I have told you what knowledge | offers you, but it is clear that you do not regard this as wholly |
| Tx:9.49 | you will not tolerate self-abasement and seek relief. Then it | offers you the illusion of attack as a solution. |
| Tx:9.78 | whether its offering is really what you want, for this is what it | offers you. To obtain this you are willing to attack the divinity of |
| Tx:11.39 | hardly joyous. Is this the promise you would keep? The Holy Spirit | offers you another promise, and one that will lead to joy. For His |
| Tx:11.98 | it real and then atoning for it. This is the ego's plan, which it | offers instead of dispelling it. The ego believes in atonement |
| Tx:12.23 | as it is reasonably satisfied with you, as its reasoning goes, it | offers you oblivion. When it becomes overtly savage, it offers you |
| Tx:12.23 | goes, it offers you oblivion. When it becomes overtly savage, it | offers you hell. |
| Tx:12.27 | go. You thus deny yourself the message of release that every brother | offers you now. |
| Tx:12.30 | for now is the closest approximation of eternity which this world | offers. It is in the reality of now, without past or future, that the |
| Tx:12.51 | The present | offers you your brothers in the light that would unite you with them |
| Tx:13.12 | condemnation of yourself, and you will not escape the punishment it | offers those who obey it. The ego rewards fidelity to it with pain, |
| Tx:13.28 | Christ would have you see. His Will is like His Father's, and He | offers mercy to every Child of God, as He would have you do. |
| Tx:13.46 | wander, and there is no possibility that the plan the Holy Spirit | offers to everyone for the salvation of everyone will not be |
| Tx:13.74 | knows no limits. There is nothing their wills will not provide that | offers them anything of value. Yet because they do not understand |
| Tx:13.75 | not try to escape the gift of God which He so freely and so gladly | offers you. He offers you but what God gave Him for you. You need not |
| Tx:13.75 | the gift of God which He so freely and so gladly offers you. He | offers you but what God gave Him for you. You need not decide whether |
| Tx:14.31 | which He shares with you. The single vision which the Holy Spirit | offers you will bring this oneness to your mind with clarity and |
| Tx:14.40 | with God beside you. Yet without Him you are nothing. The Atonement | offers you God. The gift which you refused is held by Him in you. His |
| Tx:14.51 | The miracle | offers exactly the same response to every call for help. It does not |
| Tx:14.51 | in it. The power of God is limitless. And being always maximal, it | offers everything to every call from anyone. There is no order of |
| Tx:14.52 | and nothing else. For you do not respond to what a brother really | offers you, but only to the particular perception of his offering by |
| Tx:14.69 | binds not you. He does not see time as you do. And each miracle He | offers you corrects your use of time and makes it His. |
| Tx:14.70 | He is there and works through you. And all His works are yours. He | offers you a miracle with every one you let Him do through you. |
| Tx:15.3 | for you to find peace even in the death it wants for you, it | offers you immortality in hell. It speaks to you of Heaven but |
| Tx:15.13 | blessed instant to you through your giving it. As you give it, He | offers it to you. |

| Tx:16.52 | which you despise. And you despise it because you do not think it | offers the specialness which you demand. And hating it, you have made |
| Tx:16.57 | and into fantasy. Yet for every learning that would hurt you, God | offers you correction and complete escape from all its consequences. |
| Tx:17.68 | it will carry you straight to illusions. Be tempted not by what it | offers you. It interferes not with the goal, but with the value of |
| Tx:17.68 | the value of the goal to you. Accept not the illusion of peace it | offers, but look upon its offering and recognize it is illusion. |
| Tx:18.77 | above it and surrounding it with love is the glorious whole, which | offers all its happiness and deep content to every part. The little |
| Tx:18.81 | its glad coming. In the holy instant, you ask of love only what it | offers everyone, neither less nor more. Asking for everything, you |
| Tx:19.13 | Your holy relationship, with its new purpose, | offers you faith to give unto each other. Your faithlessness had |
| Tx:19.59 | to the first, is the belief that the body is valuable for what it | offers. For here is the attraction of guilt made manifest in the body |
| Tx:19.66 | and all the world will answer. Think of your happiness as everyone | offers you witness of the end of sin and shows you that its power is |
| Tx:19.102 | Beside each of you is one who | offers you the chalice of Atonement, for the Holy Spirit is in him. |
| Tx:19.103 | to you to share His holiness. This “enemy,” this “stranger” still | offers you salvation as His Friend. The “enemies” of Christ, the |
| Tx:20.6 | mind decides on what it would receive and give. And every gift it | offers depends on what it wants. It will adorn its chosen home most |
| Tx:20.8 | of God has not forgiven me. And can I offer him forgiveness when he | offers thorns to me? For he who offers thorns to anyone is against me |
| Tx:20.8 | can I offer him forgiveness when he offers thorns to me? For he who | offers thorns to anyone is against me still, and who is whole without |
| Tx:20.40 | How can you estimate the worth of him who | offers peace to you? What would you want except his offering? His |
| Tx:20.43 | and death must be forgotten. This is no gift your brother's body | offers you. The veil that hides the gift hides him as well. He is the |
| Tx:20.53 | in a false attraction, your preference to the holy instant which | offers you peace and understanding? Then lay aside the body and |
| Tx:20.54 | and love shines on it with the gentle smile and tender blessing it | offers to its own. Here the unholy instant is exchanged in gladness |
| Tx:20.65 | sign that you lack vision and have denied the means the Holy Spirit | offers you to serve His purpose. How can a holy relationship achieve |
| Tx:20.68 | be free of misery and learn again of joy? Your holy relationship | offers all this to you. As it was given you, so will be its effects. |
| Tx:20.70 | be preferred and chosen to replace the holy home the Holy Spirit | offers, where He will dwell with you? |
| Tx:21.68 | that it cannot be you stand apart from blessing. The gratitude he | offers you reminds you of the thanks your Father gives you for |
| Tx:22.17 | Truth is the opposite of illusions because it | offers joy. What else but joy could be the opposite of misery? To |
| Tx:22.45 | Reality opposes nothing. What merely is needs no defense and | offers none. Only illusions need defense because of weakness. And how |
| Tx:22.46 | needs great defense and at enormous cost. All that the Holy Spirit | offers must be defended against and sacrificed. For sin is carved |
| Tx:22.58 | the Holy Spirit does with the gifts you give each other, to whom He | offers them, and where and when is up to Him. He will bestow them |
| Tx:23.54 | can offer something that you can win. Can it be anything that | offers you a perfect calmness and a sense of love so deep and quiet |
| Tx:23.55 | What can conflict with everything? And what is there that | offers less, yet could be wanted more? Who with the love of God |
| Tx:24.3 | To withhold the smallest gift is not to know love's purpose. Love | offers everything forever. Hold back but one belief, one offering, |
| Tx:24.23 | its purpose must be given to kill. No gift that bears its seal but | offers treachery to giver and receiver. Not one glance from eyes it |
| Tx:24.34 | hated and worthy only of destruction. Whatever gentleness it | offers is but deception, but its hate is real. In danger of |
| Tx:24.41 | form; however lovely it may seem to be; however much it delicately | offers the hope of peace and the escape from pain—in which you |
| Tx:24.46 | upon with Him and share His joy. His perfect lack of specialness He | offers you that you may save all living things from death, receiving |
| Tx:24.46 | receiving from each one the gift of life that your forgiveness | offers to your Self. The sight of Christ is all there is to see. The |
| Tx:25.16 | created He supports and frames within Himself. His masterpiece He | offers you to see. And would you rather see the frame instead of |
| Tx:25.21 | to understand His gift to you. And give the Holy Spirit what He | offers unto the Father and the Son alike. Nothing has power over you |
| Tx:25.40 | other and save himself along with him. Forgiven by you, your savior | offers you salvation. Condemned by you, he offers death to you. In |
| Tx:25.40 | by you, your savior offers you salvation. Condemned by you, he | offers death to you. In everyone you see but the reflection of what |
| Tx:25.43 | kindness of his sight rests on himself with all the tenderness it | offers others. For he would only heal and only bless. And being in |
| Tx:25.71 | You are not asked to trust Him far. No further than what you see He | offers you and what you recognize you could not give yourself. |
| Tx:25.85 | be received because another could receive it not. Only forgiveness | offers miracles. And pardon must be just to everyone. |
| Tx:26.6 | sings to you. And let the world recede and take the rest his witness | offers on behalf of peace. But judge him not, for you will hear no |
| Tx:26.11 | The Holy Spirit | offers you release from every problem that you think you have. They |
| Tx:26.14 | punish him because you find him guilty and would have him die. God | offers you the means to see his innocence. Would it be fair to punish |
| Tx:26.25 | done nothing to forgive. Forgiveness always rests upon the one who | offers it until he sees himself as needing it no more. And thus is he |
| Tx:26.25 | he returned to his real function of creating, which his forgiveness | offers him again. |
| Tx:26.63 | death instead of what his Father wills for him. Yet every instant | offers life to him because his Father wills that he should live. |
| Tx:26.69 | From this perception you cannot conceive of gaining what forgiveness | offers now. The interval you think lies in between the giving and |
| Tx:26.83 | where you walk forgiveness gladly goes with you. No one on earth but | offers thanks to one who has restored his home and sheltered him from |
| Tx:27.3 | him you show yourself and give it all your faith. The Holy Spirit | offers you to give to him a picture of yourself in which there is no |
| Tx:27.42 | hear an answer which is not entailed within the question asked. It | offers something new and different from the question. How could it be |
| Tx:27.76 | Brother, He gives but life. Yet what you see as gifts your brother | offers represent the gifts you dream your Father gives to you. Let |
| Tx:28.5 | within itself. And if it seems to serve to cherish ancient hate and | offers you the pictures of injustices and hurts which you were |
| Tx:28.12 | He to Whom time is given | offers thanks for every quiet instant given Him. For in that instant |
| Tx:28.44 | separate piece that thinks it is a picture in itself. To each he | offers his identity, which the whole picture represents, instead of |
| Tx:29.38 | grief and loss. This is the “sacrifice” salvation asks and gladly | offers peace instead of this. |
| Tx:30.41 | It never is the idol that you want. But what you think it | offers you, you want indeed and have the right to ask for. Nor could |
| Tx:31.44 | and it looks at times with pity on the suffering and sometimes | offers solace. It believes that it is good within an evil world. |
| Tx:31.82 | And they cannot see until he looks on them with seeing eyes and | offers them forgiveness with his own. Can you to whom God says, |
| W1:37.1 | your holy vision. It signifies the end of sacrifice because it | offers everyone his full due. And he is entitled to everything |
| W1:42.1 | you power. And it is His gift to you, rather than your own, which | offers vision to you. |

| W1:66.9 | the ego always engenders and the love which the Holy Spirit always | offers to replace it. |
| W1:72.7 | be glad. As a body, do not let yourself be deprived of what the body | offers. Take the little you can get. God gave you nothing. The body |

| W1:97.5 | in Him, and Which calls through His Voice to every living thing; | offers His sight to everyone who asks; replaces error with the simple |
| W1:97.11 | Self. Listen for His assurance every time you speak the words He | offers you today, and let Him tell your mind that they are true. |

| W1:121.2 | The unforgiving mind is full of fear and | offers love no room to be itself, no place where it can spread its |

| Tx:3.76 | of the self to create an image of itself. Its fear aspect is | often ascribed to fear of retaliation by a “father figure,” a |

| W1:63.3 | importance of this function, we will be happy to remember it very | often today. We will begin the day by acknowledging it and close the |

| Tx:6.94 | healed. Your vigilance against this sickness is the way to heal it. | Once your mind is healed, it radiates health and thereby teaches |
| Tx:7.19 | To heal is to liberate totally. We | once said there is no order of difficulty in miracles, because they |
| Tx:7.82 | We | once said that without projection there can be no anger, but it is |
| Tx:8.22 | what the ego has made of you. This is your responsibility, because | once you have really done this, you will accept the Atonement for |
| Tx:8.80 | We | once said that the Holy Spirit is the Answer. He is the Answer to |
| Tx:9.14 | He knows how to fulfill it perfectly. That is what we meant when we | once said that miracles are natural, and when they do not occur, |
| Tx:9.50 | between miracle impulses and ego-alien beliefs of its own. We | once said that the ego is aware of threat, but does not make |
| Tx:9.66 | loving seems possible to you, but you do not remember yet that it | once was so. And it is in this remembering that you will know it can |
| Tx:9.66 | again. What is possible has not yet been accomplished. Yet what has | once been is so now if it is eternal. When you remember, you will |
| Tx:10.44 | source is not natural, being out of accord with your true nature. We | once said that to will contrary to God is wishful thinking and not |
| Tx:11.24 | I | once asked if you were willing to sell all you have and give to the |
| Tx:11.32 | We | once said that God so loved the world that He gave it to His |

| Tx:12.6 | We | once said that the crucifixion is the symbol of the ego. When it was |
| Tx:14.22 | who would communicate as truly with you. You speak two languages at | once, and this must lead to unintelligibility. Yet if one means |
| Tx:14.48 | can be simultaneous and legion. This is not difficult to understand, | once you conceive of them as possible at all. What is more difficult |
| Tx:15.16 | been removed? Truth is so far beyond time that all of it happens at | once. For as it was created one, so its oneness depends not on time |
| Tx:15.26 | be content with less than his Father has given him. We asked you | once before, “Would you be hostage to the ego or host to God?” Let |
| Tx:15.39 | will be yours. I call to you to make the holy instant yours at | once, for the release from littleness in the mind of the host of God |
| Tx:15.53 | frame of reference you have built by which to judge your brothers. | Once this is gone, the Holy Spirit substitutes His frame of reference |
| Tx:15.85 | this willingness, it will not leave you, for it is permanent. For | once you have accepted it as the only perception you want, it is |
| Tx:15.95 | It is possible to do this all at | once because there is but one shift in perception that is necessary, |
| Tx:16.7 | this be, and do not try to substitute your “miracle” for this. We | once said that if a brother asks a foolish thing of you, to do it. |
| Tx:16.22 | You have taught freedom, but you have not learned how to be free. We | once said, “By their fruits ye shall know them, and they shall know |

| Tx:17.45 | time in introducing the practical results of asking Him to enter. At | once His goal replaces yours. This is accomplished very rapidly, but |
| Tx:17.45 | pursuit of the old goal reestablished in another relationship. For | once the unholy relationship has accepted the goal of holiness, it |
| Tx:17.50 | will come to haunt you and to remind you of all the ways you | once sought for satisfaction and thought you found it. Forget not now |
| Tx:17.72 | called forth the faith in you. And you will see the means you | once employed to lead you to illusions transformed to means for |

| Tx:18.4 | over and over, that it is now almost impossible to perceive it | once was one and still is what it was. That one error, which brought |
| Tx:18.20 | as means for waking. You would have used them to remain asleep. We | once said that the first change, before dreams disappear, is that |
| Tx:18.79 | dust. Give them a place of refuge, prepared by love for them where | once a desert was. And everyone you welcome will bring love with him |
| Tx:19.47 | remnant of the belief in sin, is all that remains of what | once seemed to be the world. It is no longer an unrelenting barrier |
| Tx:19.99 | This is the place to which everyone must come when he is ready. | Once he has found his brother, he is ready. Yet merely to reach the |
| Tx:20.16 | is lost if any shift or change is undertaken. For this reduces it at | once to mere perception—a way of looking in which certainty is lost |
| Tx:20.35 | that God would have a plan for your salvation that does not work. | Once you accept His plan as the one function that you would fulfill, |
| Tx:20.74 | and they are gone. And all you need to do is recognize you did this. | Once you accept this simple fact and take unto yourself the power you |
| Tx:21.35 | Faith and belief become attached to vision, as all the means that | once served sin are redirected now toward holiness. For what you |
| Tx:21.45 | And it desired nothing but to join with him and to be free again, as | once it was. It has been waiting for the birth of freedom, the |
| Tx:21.56 | enters not at all in this. For the perception would fall away at | once if reason were applied. There is no reason in insanity, for it |
| Tx:21.57 | Here was the Holy Spirit's purpose accepted and accomplished both at | once. Reason is alien to insanity, and those who use it have gained a |
| Tx:21.73 | an enemy, but this will shift even as it attacks, so that it runs at | once to find another and never comes to rest in victory. And as it |
| Tx:21.88 | you receive and happiness is constant, then you need ask for it but | once to have it always. And if you do not have it always, being what |
| Tx:22.41 | you will bring to light the tired eyes of those as weary now as | once you were. How thankful will they be to see you come among them, |
| Tx:23.6 | kind forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and everything you | once thought sinful now will be reinterpreted as part of Heaven. How |
| Tx:24.6 | with it. And thus does specialness become a means and end at | once. For specialness not only sets apart but serves as grounds from |
| Tx:25.32 | of change unless the aim is changed. And then the means are chosen | once again, as what will bring rejoicing is defined another way and |
| Tx:25.42 | your attack believe He hates you, thinking Heaven must be hell. Look | once again upon your brother, not without the understanding that he |
| Tx:26.15 | one whom you wish to be preserved from sacrifice entirely. Consider | once again your special function. One is given you to see in him his |
| Tx:26.16 | they disappear, to be forever undone and unremembered. What seemed | once to be a special problem, a mistake without a remedy, or an |
| Tx:26.24 | where the separation is undone by change of purpose in what | once was specialness and now is union? All illusions are but one. And |
| Tx:26.27 | to the Source of its creation? The holiest of altars is set where | once sin was believed to be. And here does every light of heaven come |
| Tx:26.29 | Where sin | once was perceived will rise a world which will become an altar to |
| Tx:26.40 | of the past remains, but still a present light is dimly recognized. | Once it is seen, this light can never be forgotten. It must draw you |

| Tx:30.28 | for practicing the rules for its undoing. Let us, then, consider | once again the very first of the decisions which are offered here. |
| Tx:30.35 | Look | once again upon your enemy, the one you chose to hate instead of |
| Tx:31.34 | before the bleakness enters. And on some the thorns are felt at | once. The choice is not what will the ending be but when it comes. |
| Tx:31.84 | Choose | once again if you would take your place among the saviors of the |

| Tx:31.94 | so many chances to perceive another situation where God's gift can | once again be recognized as ours! And thus will all the vestiges of |
| W1:10.1 | comparison as yet. When you do, you will have no doubt that what you | once believed were your thoughts did not mean anything. |
| W1:11.3 | On concluding the exercises, close your eyes and repeat the idea | once more, slowly, to yourself. |
| W1:26.15 | Conclude each practice period by repeating today's idea | once more. |
| W1:27.7 | by this, but do try to keep on your schedule from then on. If only | once during the day you feel that you were perfectly sincere while |
| W1:29.7 | to the assigned practice periods, repeat the idea for today at least | once an hour, looking slowly about you as you say the words |
| W1:29.7 | about you as you say the words unhurriedly to yourself. At least | once or twice you should experience a sense of restfulness as you do |
| W1:39.2 | But do you believe that guilt is hell? If you did, you would see at | once how direct and simple the text is, and you would not need a |
| W1:39.12 | End each practice period by repeating the idea in its original form | once more, and adding: |
| W1:40.1 | are required today, but very frequent short ones are necessary. | Once every ten minutes would be highly desirable, and you are urged |
| W1:42.7 | If such interferences occur, open your eyes and repeat the thought | once more while looking slowly about; close your eyes, repeat the |
| W1:42.7 | more while looking slowly about; close your eyes, repeat the idea | once more, and then continue to look for related thoughts in your |
| W1:R1.2 | in considering them, though each one should be practiced at least | once. Devote two minutes or more to each practice period, thinking |
| W1:R1.2 | one. At the end of the day, however, be sure to review all of them | once more. |
| W1:58.5 | my salvation. It is also recognizing the salvation of the world. | Once I have accepted my holiness, nothing can make me afraid. And |
| W1:64.9 | At least | once devote ten or 15 minutes to reflecting on this with closed eyes. |
| W1:65.5 | idea for today. Then close your eyes, repeat the idea to yourself | once again, and watch your mind carefully to catch whatever thoughts |
| W1:65.11 | Finally, repeat the idea for today | once more and devote the rest of the practice period to trying to |
| W1:65.11 | the relief its acceptance will bring you by resolving your conflicts | once and for all, and the extent to which you really want salvation |
| W1:65.12 | In the shorter practice periods, which should be undertaken at least | once an hour, use this form in applying today's idea: |
| W1:73.4 | Today we will try | once more to reach the world that is in accordance with your will. |
| W1:76.2 | seek where it is not and never find it. The idea for today tells you | once again how simple is salvation. Look for it where it waits for |
| W1:98.13 | And when the hour is gone and He is there | once more to spend a little time with you, be thankful and lay down |
| W1:98.13 | and limited ideas, and spend a happy time again with Him. Tell Him | once more that you accept the part which He would have you take and |
| W1:102.1 | makes no sense. It has not gone as yet but lacks the roots that | once secured it tightly to the dark and hidden secret places of your |
| W1:129.2 | It might be worth a little time to think | once more about the value of this world. Perhaps you will concede |
| W1:129.7 | to make this change ten minutes in the morning and at night and | once more in between. Begin with this: |
| W1:130.2 | Yet who can really hate and love at | once? Who can desire what he does not want to have reality? And who |
| W1:132.10 | A lesson earlier repeated | once must now be stressed again, for it contains the firm foundation |

| W1:139.8 | a mission here. We did not come to reinforce the madness which we | once believed in. Let us not forget the goal that we accepted. It is |
| W1:152.7 | to triumph over life—all this is arrogance. Humility would see at | once these things are not of Him. And can you see what God created |
| W1:158.4 | point at which it ended, looking back on it, imagining we make it | once again; reviewing mentally what has gone by. |
| W1:161.11 | If you are intent on reaching it, you will succeed today. And | once you have succeeded, you will not be willing to accept the |
| W1:163.3 | hard to gain, uncertain in their outcome, apt to fail the hopes they | once engendered and to leave the taste of dust and ashes in their |

| W1:181.10 | The world which | once proclaimed our sins becomes the proof that we are sinless. And |
| W1:183.7 | words we use except at the beginning, when we say today's idea but | once. And then God's Name becomes our only thought, our only word, |
| W1:187.7 | to take. And sacrifice is an idea so mad that sanity dismisses it at | once. |

| W1:196.8 | you take this one today. From there we go ahead quite rapidly. For | once you understand it is impossible that you be hurt except by your |
| W1:196.10 | mind so wholly that escape appears quite hopeless. When you realize | once and for all that it is you you fear, the mind perceives itself |
| M:1.1 | in which he did not see his interests as apart from someone else's. | Once he has done that, his road is established and his direction is |

| Tx:25.10 | for while you think that part of you is separate, the concept of a | oneness joined as one is meaningless. It is apparent that a mind so |

| W1:78.12 | that you may share it with them. For you both, and all the sightless | ones as well, we pray: |
| W1:79.5 | up unexpectedly, just as you think you have resolved the previous | ones. Others remain unsolved under a cloud of denial and rise to |
| W1:R2.1 | other. We will have one longer exercise period and frequent shorter | ones in which we practice each of them. |

| W1:105.3 | all meaning from the gifts you give and leaves you nothing in the | ones you take. A major learning goal this course has set is to |

| W1:137.9 | how little practice you need undertake to let His laws replace the | ones you made to hold yourself a prisoner to death. |
| W1:153.10 | mightily protected? What defense could possibly be needed by the | ones who are among the chosen ones of God by His election and their |

| W1:155.1 | frequently. Your forehead is serene; your eyes are quiet. And the | ones who walk the world as you do recognize their own. Yet those who |
| W1:187.9 | that your brother offers you are laid upon your altar, with the | ones you offer him beside them. Who could fear to look upon such |

| Tx:1.53 | always involves. Error is lack of love. When man projects this | onto others, he does imprison them, but only to the extent that he |
| Tx:2.110 | is frightening not only because it has been falsely projected | onto God, but also because of the association of “last” with death. |
| Tx:3.66 | which is totally impossible anyway, you will insist on holding | onto judgment. You will also use the term with considerable fear, |
| Tx:3.66 | he believes he is the author of himself, projects his delusion | onto others, and then perceives the situation as one in which people |

| Tx:7.14 | that you will learn what you are from what you have projected | onto others and therefore believe they are. In the Kingdom there is |
| Tx:7.57 | not perceive its existence as threatened by projecting the threat | onto you and perceiving your being as nonexistent. This ensures its |

| Tx:1.81 | to lower communication, keeping the direct channel from God to man | open for revelation. Revelation is not reciprocal. It is always from |
| Tx:2.56 | not because the body is a miracle but because it is not inherently | open to misinterpretation. The body is merely a fact in human |
| Tx:3.23 | the body or the mind can see (or understand). This is not really | open to question at all. The body is not capable of understanding, |
| Tx:3.38 | of his real strengths. All of his functions are equivocal and | open to question or doubt. This is because he is not certain how he |
| Tx:3.40 | as he is because that is all he can be sure of. Everything else is | open to question. |
| Tx:3.54 | but it also implies that there is nothing to know. Knowing is not | open to interpretation. It is possible to “interpret” meaning, but |
| Tx:3.54 | It is possible to “interpret” meaning, but this is always | open to error because it refers to the perception of meaning. Such |

| Tx:5.32 | were, the separation between the two ways of thinking would not be | open to healing. He is part of the Holy Trinity because His Mind is |
| Tx:5.43 | with and for a mind that is in opposition. Correct and learn and be | open to learning. You have not made truth, but truth can still set |

| Tx:7.102 | of God's Will. Therefore, you believe that an impossible choice is | open to you and one which is both very fearful and very desirable. |
| Tx:7.105 | since it is what you are. Sharing His Will with me is not really | open to choice, though it may seem to be. The whole separation lies |
| Tx:8.68 | is extension. Do not arrest your thought in this world, and you will | open your mind to creation in God. |
| Tx:9.37 | This cannot mean anything to you, however, until you remember God's | open arms and finally know His open mind. Like Him, you are “always,” |
| Tx:9.37 | however, until you remember God's open arms and finally know His | open mind. Like Him, you are “always,” in His Mind and with a mind |

| Tx:11.56 | Correction is for all who cannot see. To | open the eyes of the blind is the Holy Spirit's mission, for He knows |
| Tx:11.56 | the sleep of forgetting to the remembering of God. Christ's eyes are | open, and He will look upon whatever you see with love if you accept |
| Tx:12.25 | have been as selective in your questioning as in your perception. An | open mind is more honest than this. |
| Tx:12.37 | the love your brothers offer you, you do not see. As you look with | open eyes upon your world, it must occur to you that you have |
| Tx:13.10 | you do not know, and as they reach the gates of Heaven, God will | open them. For never would He leave His own beloved Son outside them |
| Tx:13.61 | there is true and built on truth. The universe of learning will | open up before you in all its gracious simplicity. With truth before |
| Tx:13.62 | this lies in the Holy Spirit's plan to free you from the past and | open up the way to freedom for you. For truth is true. What else |
| Tx:14.23 | doors behind which nothing at all is carefully concealed. We must | open all doors and let the light come streaming through. There are no |
| Tx:14.23 | through. There are no hidden chambers in God's temple. Its gates are | open wide to greet His Son. No one can fail to come where God has |
| Tx:14.30 | but this—bring to Him every secret you have locked away from Him. | Open every door to Him and bid Him enter the darkness and lighten it |
| Tx:14.30 | gladly. He brings the light to darkness if you make the darkness | open to Him. But what you hide He cannot look upon. For He sees for |
| Tx:14.56 | God has no secret communications, for everything of Him is perfectly | open and freely accessible to all, being for all. Nothing lives in |
| Tx:14.62 | must be brought willingly to truth and joyously laid down by hands | open to receive, not closed to take. Every dark lesson that you bring |
| Tx:15.22 | and blinding yourself to glory. Littleness and glory are the choices | open to your striving and your vigilance. You will always choose one |
| Tx:15.40 | This means, however, that it is a time in which your mind is | open, both to receive and give. It is the recognition that all minds |
| Tx:15.83 | every need, whatever form it takes. And so He has kept this channel | open to receive His communication to you and yours to Him. God does |
| Tx:16.30 | but not to let it go. Your salvation will rise clearly before your | open eyes as you look on this. You cannot limit hate. The special |
| Tx:16.42 | veil the love of God in us together cannot lift. The way to truth is | open. Follow it with me. |
| Tx:16.44 | have you see Him, and Him alone, as guilty, leaving the Sonship | open to attack and unprotected from it. The special love relationship |
| Tx:16.44 | this offering, the fantasies which center around it are often quite | open. Here they are usually judged to be acceptable and even natural. |
| Tx:17.8 | world, bright and clean and new with everything sparkling under the | open sun. Nothing is hidden here, for everything has been forgiven, |
| Tx:18.69 | withdrawn the body's value from your mind. Here is the quick and | open door through which you slip past centuries of effort and escape |
| Tx:19.18 | not. Thus is creation seen as not eternal, and the Will of God | open to opposition and defeat. Sin is the “grand illusion” underlying |
| Tx:19.97 | No obstacle to peace can be surmounted through its help. It does not | open up its secrets and bid you look on them and go beyond them. It |
| Tx:20.12 | us, for in our vision will be no illusions—only a pathway to the | open door of Heaven, the home we share in quietness, and where we |
| Tx:20.15 | you walk the way of innocence together, singing as you behold the | open door of Heaven, and recognize the home that called to you. Give |
| Tx:20.35 | time, there is so much that must be done before the way to peace is | open. Perhaps this seems impossible to you. But ask yourself if it is |
| Tx:20.54 | of safe return. Here is the way to true relationships held gently | open, through which you walk together, leaving the body thankfully |
| Tx:20.54 | behind and resting in the Everlasting Arms. Love's arms are | open to receive you and give you peace forever. |
| Tx:20.67 | as it was lost to you through your desire for something else. | Open the holy place which you closed off by valuing the “something |
| Tx:20.77 | and death and watched them change to quiet views of gardens under | open skies, with clear, life-giving water running happily beside them |
| Tx:21.3 | because of what they did not recognize, or walk unharmed through | open doorways which they thought were closed. And so it is with you. |
| Tx:21.3 | you can go through the doors you thought were closed but which stand | open before unseeing eyes, waiting to welcome you. |
| Tx:21.4 | you recognize it for what it is. You can be shown which doors are | open, and you can see where safety lies and which way leads to |
| Tx:21.22 | holiness and vision to see it easily enough. But you have not left | open and unoccupied the altar where the gifts belong. Where they |
| Tx:21.48 | is not made meaningful by repetition and by clamor. The quiet way is | open. Follow it happily and question not what must be so. |
| Tx:21.57 | is far beyond attainment of any kind. But reason can serve to | open doors you closed against it. |
| Tx:22.10 | you have received and failed to understand, this course alone is | open to your understanding and can be understood. This is your |
| Tx:22.41 | long and lonely journey where you walked alone. The gates of Heaven, | open now for you, will you now open to the sorrowful. And none who |
| Tx:22.41 | walked alone. The gates of Heaven, open now for you, will you now | open to the sorrowful. And none who looks upon the Christ in you but |
| Tx:22.42 | For you are here to let it be received. God's offer still is | open, yet it waits acceptance. From you who have accepted it is it |
| Tx:23.16 | of yourself is home to both of you, who dwell as one and not apart. | Open the door of His most holy home and let forgiveness sweep away |
| Tx:23.46 | To be released from conflict means that it is over. The door is | open; you have left the battleground. You have not lingered there in |
| Tx:24.28 | It is not you that is so vulnerable and | open to attack that just a word, a little whisper that you do not |
| Tx:24.32 | and die, but not by Him Who made not death, but only in the dream. | Open your eyes a little; see the savior God gave to you that you |
| Tx:24.37 | left you bankrupt and your treasure house barren and empty with an | open door inviting everything that would disturb your peace to enter |
| Tx:27.10 | fear or love. For now it witnesses to nothing yet, its purpose being | open and the mind made free again to choose what it is for. Now is it |
| Tx:28.19 | pictures what you wanted shown to you. An empty storehouse with an | open door holds all your shreds of memories and dreams. Yet if you |
| Tx:28.34 | you would keep within the storehouse of the world. The door is | open, not to thieves but to your starving brothers who mistook for |
| Tx:28.34 | of snow that shone like silver. They have nothing left behind the | open door. What is the world except a little gap perceived to tear |
| Tx:28.35 | make a place of welcome for your Father and your Self. The door is | open that all those may come who would no longer starve and would |
| Tx:29.49 | To change all this and | open up a road of hope and of release in what appeared to be an |
| Tx:30.25 | of lack of opposition to be helped. It is a statement of an | open mind, not certain yet, but willing to be shown: |
| Tx:30.82 | only if its aim could change with every situation could each one be | open to interpretation which is different every time you think of it. |
| Tx:31.32 | And what they see upholds their freedom from imprisonment and death. | Open your mind to change, and there will be no ancient penalty |
| Tx:31.45 | upon its innocence, provoking it to irritation and at last to | open insult and abuse. |
| Tx:31.59 | you will see you know not what you are. It is to this unsealed and | open mind that truth returns, unhindered and unbound. Where concepts |
| Tx:31.78 | everywhere. He holds no concept of himself between his calm and | open eyes and what he sees. He brings the light to what he looks |
| Tx:31.80 | It sees no past in anyone at all. And thus it serves a wholly | open mind, unclouded by old concepts and prepared to look on only |
| Tx:31.80 | of what I behold?” Then is the answer given. And the door held | open for the face of Christ to shine upon the one who asks in |
| W1:I.4 | to the contrary, the exercise should be practiced with the eyes | open, since the aim is to learn how to see. The only rule that should |

| W1:11.2 | Begin with eyes closed, and repeat the idea slowly to yourself. Then | open your eyes and look about, near or far, up or down—anywhere. |
| W1:12.2 | These exercises are done with eyes | open. Look around you, this time quite slowly. Try to pace yourself |
| W1:13.4 | ones. With eyes closed, repeat today's idea to yourself. Then | open your eyes and look about you slowly, saying: |
| W1:17.2 | In applying today's idea, say to yourself, with eyes | open: |
| W1:28.3 | a commitment to withdraw your preconceived ideas about the table and | open your mind to what it is and what it is for. You are not defining |
| W1:28.5 | all your own ideas from it and look upon it with a completely | open mind. It has something to show you—something beautiful and |
| W1:30.1 | today is the springboard for vision. From this idea will the world | open up before you, and you will look upon it and see in it what you |
| W1:36.3 | your eyes and repeat the idea for today several times slowly. Then | open your eyes and look quite slowly about you, applying the idea |
| W1:36.5 | periods, close your eyes and repeat the idea to yourself. Then | open your eyes and continue as before. |
| W1:37.8 | You may continue the practice period with your eyes closed; you may | open your eyes again and apply the idea for today to your outer world |
| W1:37.8 | your eyes closed and another following immediately with your eyes | open. |
| W1:41.7 | even say it is the only natural thing in the world. The way will | open if you believe that it is possible. This exercise can bring very |
| W1:42.4 | the practice period by repeating the idea for today slowly with eyes | open, looking about you. Then close your eyes and repeat the idea |
| W1:42.7 | thoughts at all seem to come to mind. If such interferences occur, | open your eyes and repeat the thought once more while looking slowly |
| W1:42.8 | period alternating between slow repetitions of the idea with eyes | open, then closed, then open, and so on, than it is to strain in |
| W1:42.8 | slow repetitions of the idea with eyes open, then closed, then | open, and so on, than it is to strain in order to find suitable |
| W1:43.5 | of these practice periods, repeat the idea to yourself with eyes | open. Then glance around you for a short time, applying the idea |
| W1:43.11 | with today's idea, or if you seem to be unable to think of anything, | open your eyes, repeat the first phase, and then try the second phase |
| W1:44.7 | Begin the practice period by repeating today's idea with your eyes | open and close them slowly, repeating the idea several times more. |
| W1:44.9 | of fear. In that case, you will probably find it more reassuring to | open your eyes briefly. Try, however, to return to the exercises as |
| W1:44.11 | Throughout the day, repeat the idea often with eyes | open or closed as seems better to you at the time. Do not forget. |
| W1:48.2 | repeat the idea as often as possible. You can use it with your eyes | open at any time and in any situation. It is strongly recommended, |
| W1:49.4 | Listen in deep silence. Be very still, and | open your mind. Go past all the raucous shrieks and sick imaginings |
| W1:49.5 | forget to repeat today's idea very frequently. Do so with your eyes | open when necessary, but closed when possible. And be sure that you |
| W1:55.6 | have given the world has led to a frightening picture of it. Let me | open my mind to its real purpose by withdrawing the one I have given |
| W1:57.2 | I can drop them off merely by desiring to do so. The prison door is | open. I can leave it simply by walking out. Nothing holds me in this |
| W1:60.6 | of God. As I listen to God's Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I | open my eyes, His love lights up the world for me to see. As I |
| W1:64.11 | on the thoughts you are applying. At other times keep your eyes | open after reviewing the thoughts and look slowly and unselectively |
| W1:65.14 | Sometimes close your eyes as you practice, and sometimes keep them | open and look about you. It is what you see now that will be totally |
| W1:75.7 | Dwell not upon the past today. Keep a completely | open mind, washed of all past ideas and clean of every concept you |
| W1:76.12 | Let us today | open God's channels to Him and let His Will extend through us to Him. |
| W1:97.6 | where pain and misery appear to rule. He will not overlook one | open mind that will accept the healing gift they bring, and He will |
| W1:98.11 | He will enable you to understand your special function. He will | open up the way to happiness, and peace and trust will be His gifts, |
| W1:99.10 | light, and you will look upon no obstacle to what He wills for you. | Open your secrets to His kindly Light, and see how bright this Light |
| W1:101.5 | sin will never happen, for it has no cause. Accept Atonement with an | open mind which cherishes no lingering belief that you have made a |
| W1:106.1 | give you nothing that you really want; if you will listen with an | open mind, which has not told you what salvation is; then you will |
| W1:107.7 | evading capture and escaping grasp. It does not hide. It stands in | open light, in obvious accessibility. It is impossible that anyone |
| W1:109.10 | Open the temple doors, and let them come from far across the world, | |
| W1:122.5 | exactly as He planned it. Changelessly it stands before you, like an | open door with warmth and welcome calling from beyond the doorway, |
| W1:122.8 | Open your eyes today, and look upon a happy world of safety and of | |
| W1:122.8 | to take the place of hell. In quietness it rises up to greet your | open eyes and fill your heart with deep tranquility as ancient |
| W1:127.7 | minutes twice today escape from every law in which you now believe. | Open your mind and rest. The world that seems to hold you prisoner |
| W1:127.8 | you as you allow His Voice to teach love's meaning to your clean and | open mind. And He will bless the lesson with His Love. |
| W1:128.7 | goes to rest when you release it from the world. Your Guide is sure. | Open your mind to Him. Be still and rest. |
| W1:131.15 | Seek for that door and find it. But before you try to | open it, remind yourself no one can fail who asks to reach the truth, |
| W1:131.16 | Put out your hand and see how easily the door swings | open with your one intent to go beyond it. Angels light the way, so |
| W1:133.14 | easily and without pain. Heaven Itself is reached by empty hands and | open minds, which come with nothing to find everything and claim it |
| W1:133.17 | who reaches unencumbered to the gate of Heaven, which swings | open as he comes. Should you begin to let yourself collect some |
| W1:134.9 | you. For if one brother has received this gift of you, the door is | open to yourself. There is a very simple way to find the door to true |
| W1:134.9 | very simple way to find the door to true forgiveness and perceive it | open wide in welcome. When you feel that you are tempted to accuse |
| W1:135.6 | it beautiful or walls to make it safe, and you but say your home is | open to the thief of time, corruptible and crumbling, so unsafe it |
| W1:136.18 | Healing will flash across your | open mind as peace and truth arise to take the place of war and vain |
| W1:138.9 | and all mistakes in judgment which the mind had made before are | open to correction as the truth dismisses them as causeless. Now are |
| W1:R4.7 | idea you will review that day can offer you in freedom and in peace. | Open your mind and clear it of all thoughts that would deceive, and |
| W1:164.8 | it the freedom given us through His forgiving vision, now our own. | Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go all things |
| W1:164.8 | you want. Your trifling treasures put away and leave a clean and | open space within your mind where Christ can come and offer you the |
| W1:166.6 | the way he chose and needs but realize Who walks with him and | open up his treasures to be free? |
| W1:169.3 | this course aspires to attain. Yet we prepare for grace in that an | open mind can hear the call to waken. It is not shut tight against |
| W1:R5.7 | as we remember This is promised us, and that this course was sent to | open up the path of light to us, and teach us, step by step, how to |
| W1:182.12 | for all the toys of battle you have made. And now the way is | open, and the journey has an end in sight at last. Be still a moment |
| W1:188.9 | would have it. Now we choose that it be innocent, devoid of sin, and | open to salvation. And we lay our saving blessing on it as we say: |
| W1:189.9 | Him come. And with this choice we rest. And in our quiet hearts and | open minds His love will blaze its pathway of itself. What has not |
| W1:189.10 | belong to You. And it is unto You we look for them. Our hands are | open to receive Your gifts. We have no thoughts we think apart from |
| W1:193.1 | eternally expanding in the joy of full creation, and eternally | open and wholly limitless in Him. This is His Will. And thus His Will |
| W1:200.3 | and seek and seek again for hell, when you have but to look with | open eyes to find that Heaven lies before you, through a door that |

| W1:137.1 | the central thought on which salvation rests. For healing is the | opposite of all the world's ideas which dwell on sickness and on |
| W1:138.1 | are alternatives to choose between. We think that all things have an | opposite, and what we want we choose. If Heaven exists, there must be |

| W1:152.2 | Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the truth at all. Accept no | opposite and no exceptions, for to do so is to contradict the truth |

| W1:167.2 | In this world there appears to be a state that is life's | opposite. You call it death. Yet we have learned that the idea of |

| W1:167.7 | what it is not. Yet mind is mind, awake or sleeping. It is not its | opposite in anything created nor in what it seems to make when it |
| W1:167.8 | which He does not share with them. The thought of death is not the | opposite to thoughts of life. Forever unopposed by opposites of any |

| W1:169.2 | alone the hate and fear are gone, for grace presents a state so | opposite to everything the world contains that those whose minds are |
| W1:170.4 | which seem wholly irreconcilable. For love now has an “enemy,” an | opposite; and fear, the alien, now needs your defense against the |
| W2:WS.2 | was no need for such a thought before, for peace was given without | opposite and merely was. But when the mind is split, there is a need |
| W2:259.2 | today. I would not be afraid of love nor seek for refuge in its | opposite. For love can have no opposite. You are the Source of |

| M:7.4 | of trust. As such, it is an attack. Usually it seems to be just the | opposite. It does appear unreasonable at first to be told that |
| M:7.4 | impossible, and doubt and trust cannot coexist. And hate must be the | opposite of love, regardless of the form it takes. Doubt not the |
| M:11.2 | true. For they say different things about the world, and things so | opposite that it is pointless to try to reconcile them. God offers |
| M:19.2 | Justice, like its | opposite, is an interpretation. It is, however, the one |
| M:20.3 | For what except attack will lead to war? And what but peace is | opposite to war? Here the initial contrast stands out clear and |
| M:20.5 | because it is not life in which the problem lies. Life has no | opposite, for it is God. Life and death seem to be opposites, because |

| Tx:13.68 | and illusion. And there is no overlap between them because they are | opposites which cannot be reconciled and cannot both be true. You are |

| Tx:27.51 | this possible, for learning does not jump from situations to their | opposites and bring the same results. All healing must proceed in |
| W1:91.10 | mistaken thoughts about your attributes to be corrected, and their | opposites to take their place. Say, for example: |
| W1:96.1 | loving and hating, mind and body. This sense of being split into | opposites induces feelings of acute and constant conflict and leads |

| W1:138.3 | Choice is the obvious escape from what appears as | opposites. Decision lets one of conflicting goals become the aim of |
| W1:138.7 | life itself must in the end be overcome by death. In death alone are | opposites resolved, for ending opposition is to die. And thus |
| W1:152.7 | To think that God made chaos, contradicts His Will, invented | opposites to truth, and suffers death to triumph over life—all this |
| W1:167.8 | death is not the opposite to thoughts of life. Forever unopposed by | opposites of any kind, the thoughts of God remain forever changeless |
| W1:167.10 | will not ask for death in any form today. Nor will we let imagined | opposites to life abide even an instant where the thought of life |
| M:20.5 | lies. Life has no opposite, for it is God. Life and death seem to be | opposites, because you have decided that death ends life. Forgive the |
| M:27.2 | His world is now a battleground where contradiction reigns and | opposites make endless war. Where there is death is peace impossible. |
opposition (49) | ||
| Tx:2.93 | depreciated the power of your own thinking. This would be in direct | opposition to the purpose of this course. It is much more helpful to |
| Tx:2.108 | think that punishment is deserved. Punishment is a concept in total | opposition to right-mindedness. The aim of the Last Judgment is to |
| Tx:3.73 | lies and builds kingdoms of his own in which everything is in direct | opposition to God. Yet he attracts men rather than repels them, and |
| Tx:3.78 | is the “devil.” It is powerful, active, destructive, and clearly in | opposition to God because it literally denies His Fatherhood. Never |
| Tx:4.8 | it. The ego is a contradiction. Man's self and God's Self are in | opposition. They are opposed in creation, in will, and in outcome. |
| Tx:5.22 | both to remember and to forget. You have chosen to be in a state of | opposition in which opposites are possible. As a result, there are |
| Tx:5.36 | ego. Everything of which the Holy Spirit reminds you is in direct | opposition to the ego's notions, because true and false perceptions |
| Tx:5.43 | opposites, because He must work with and for a mind that is in | opposition. Correct and learn and be open to learning. You have not |
| Tx:7.35 | since its goal is always to make you believe that you are in | opposition. |
| Tx:9.95 | obviously demands the denial of health, because health is in direct | opposition to its own survival. But consider what this means to you. |
| Tx:11.25 | in it. If you insist on refusing and experience a quick response of | opposition, you are believing that your salvation lies in not doing |
| Tx:11.27 | “outrageous,” do it because it does not matter. Refuse and your | opposition establishes that it does matter to you. It is only you, |
| Tx:11.65 | For this belief is the destruction of peace, a goal in direct | opposition to the Holy Spirit's purpose. You see what you expect, and |
| Tx:11.69 | invitations. You have looked upon your minds and accepted | opposition there, having sought it there. But do not then believe |
| Tx:11.69 | sought it there. But do not then believe that the witnesses for | opposition are true, for they attest only to your decision about |
| Tx:13.20 | believed to be less fearful. You are therefore willing with little | opposition to look upon all sorts of “sources” underneath awareness, |
| Tx:17.75 | you need for peace. But rise you not against it, for against your | opposition it cannot come. |
| Tx:19.18 | Thus is creation seen as not eternal, and the Will of God open to | opposition and defeat. Sin is the “grand illusion” underlying all the |
| Tx:19.33 | creation would have a different will, opposed to His and in eternal | opposition to Him and to each other. Your holy relationship has as |
| Tx:19.42 | would place upon the whole. God's Will is One, not many. It has no | opposition, for there is none beside it. What you would still contain |
| Tx:19.80 | From the ego came sin and guilt and death, in | opposition to life and innocence and to the Will of God Himself. |
| Tx:19.80 | to life and innocence and to the Will of God Himself. Where can such | opposition lie but in the sick minds of the insane, dedicated to |
| Tx:22.24 | thoughts can leave the thinker's mind, be different from it, and in | opposition to it. If this were true, thoughts would not be the mind's |
| Tx:22.30 | can be corrected, and thus it must have been an error. The ego's | opposition to correction leads to its fixed belief in sin and |
| Tx:22.45 | that they contradict reality. They go against what must be true. The | opposition comes from them and not reality. Reality opposes nothing. |
| Tx:23.23 | Now are they different and enemies. And their relationship is one of | opposition, just as the separate aspects of the Son meet only to |
| Tx:26.55 | Yet is this wish in line with Heaven's state and not in | opposition to God's Will. Although it falls far short of giving you |
| Tx:27.24 | think is yours. Thus does your function seem divided, with a half in | opposition to a half. And these two halves appear to represent a |
| Tx:27.29 | Power cannot oppose. For | opposition would weaken it, and weakened power is a contradiction in |
| Tx:30.9 | practiced well, will serve to let you be directed without fear, for | opposition will not first arise and then become a problem in itself. |
| Tx:30.14 | Try to observe this rule without delay despite your | opposition. For you have already gotten angry, and your fear of being |
| Tx:30.20 | This works against the sense of | opposition and reminds you that help is not being thrust upon you but |
| Tx:30.25 | 7. This final step is but acknowledgment of lack of | opposition to be helped. It is a statement of an open mind, not |
| Tx:30.30 | and you can see there cannot be coercion here nor grounds for | opposition that you may be free. There is no freedom from what must |
| Tx:31.22 | images you made. The old will fall away before the new without your | opposition or intent. There will be no attack upon the things you |
| W1:20.1 | yourself as being coerced and if you give in to resentment and | opposition. |
| W1:43.10 | bear an obvious relationship to the idea, but they should not be in | opposition to it. |
| W1:44.6 | ever so little, you will have no difficulty in recognizing that its | opposition and fears are meaningless. You might find it helpful to |
| W1:71.1 | You may not realize that the ego has set up a plan for salvation in | opposition to God's. It is this plan in which you believe. Since it |
| W1:76.6 | you realize that it applies to everything that you have made in | opposition to His Will. Your magic has no meaning. What it is meant |
| W1:103.2 | would limit happiness by redefining love as limited and introducing | opposition in what has no limit and no opposite. Fear is associated |
| W1:138.1 | and what we think is real. Creation knows no opposite. But here is | opposition part of being “real.” |
| W1:138.2 | fear, for this would be the error truth can be brought to illusions. | Opposition makes the truth unwelcome, and it cannot come. |
| W1:138.7 | overcome by death. In death alone are opposites resolved, for ending | opposition is to die. And thus salvation must be seen as death, for |
| W1:200.7 | the peace of God because He has one Son, who cannot make a world in | opposition to God's Will and to his own, which is the same as His. |
| W2:329.1 | That choice was made for all eternity. It cannot change and be in | opposition to itself. Father, my will is Yours. And I am safe, |

| Tx:4.97 | for the reception of His Mind and Will. Since only beings of a like | order can truly communicate, His creations naturally communicate with |

| Tx:6.64 | appreciation. Nothing more and nothing less. Without a range, an | order of difficulty is meaningless, and there must be no range in |

| Tx:7.34 | part of Him. The miracles which the Holy Spirit inspires can have no | order of difficulty, because every part of creation is of one order. |
| Tx:7.34 | no order of difficulty, because every part of creation is of one | order. This is God's Will and yours. The laws of God establish this, |

| Tx:7.82 | the fundamental law of sharing by which you give what you value in | order to keep it in your own mind. |
| Tx:7.86 | and this in turn forces them to engage in compulsive activity in | order not to recognize this. You cannot perpetuate an illusion about |
| Tx:7.107 | as wholly desirable. By demonstrating to yourselves that there is no | order of difficulty in miracles, you will convince yourselves that in |

| Tx:11.77 | yet you are surprised that you cannot see it. If you seek love in | order to attack it, you will never find it. For if love is sharing, |

| Tx:3.29 | truly, you are canceling out misperceptions in yourself and in | others simultaneously. Because you see them as they are, you offer |

| Tx:3.66 | he believes he is the author of himself, projects his delusion onto | others, and then perceives the situation as one in which people are |
| Tx:4.6 | Bible. To profess is to identify with an idea and offer the idea to | others to be their own. The idea does not lessen; it becomes stronger. |
| Tx:4.10 | greatest strengths now, because you must change your mind and help | others change theirs. It is pointless to refuse to tolerate change |
| Tx:4.18 | Release yourselves and release | others. Do not present a false and unworthy picture of yourself to |
| Tx:4.18 | others. Do not present a false and unworthy picture of yourself to | others, and do not accept such a picture of them yourselves. The ego |
| Tx:4.19 | Of your egos you can do nothing to save yourselves or | others, but of your Souls you can do everything for the salvation of |
| Tx:4.101 | would clearly be impossible, but He does want revelation brought to | others. This cannot be done with the actual revelation because its |
| Tx:4.105 | knows praise. He offers praise to you, and you must offer it to | others. The chief handicaps of the clinicians lie in their attitudes |
| Tx:4.105 | You can do much on behalf of your own rehabilitation and that of | others if in a situation calling for healing you think of it this way: |
| Tx:5.2 | forth different kinds of responses at the same time and thus deprive | others of the joy of responding whole-heartedly. To be whole-hearted, |
| Tx:5.41 | just as the Holy Spirit is the symbol of peace. What you perceive in | others, you are strengthening in yourself. You let your mind |
| Tx:5.44 | for yourself. That exception has given you more than perception for | others because of what you saw in them but less than knowledge of |
| Tx:5.75 | generation,” and also “The wicked shall perish.” There are many | others, but if you will let the Holy Spirit reinterpret these in His |
| Tx:6.7 | it does, you must be accepting false premises and teaching them to | others. The message which the crucifixion was intended to teach was |
| Tx:6.13 | was perfectly clear that this was only because of the projection of | others, because I had not harmed anyone and had healed many. We are |
| Tx:6.14 | On the contrary, by enabling yourselves to hear the Holy Spirit in | others, you can learn from their experiences and gain from them |
| Tx:6.29 | as perfect. Knowing this perfection is shared, He recognizes it in | others, thus strengthening it in both. Instead of anger, this arouses |
| Tx:6.39 | the same. We began with having and being and more recently have used | others. Hearing and being are examples, to which we can also add |
| Tx:6.42 | only the Holy Spirit because, as you see His gentleness in | others, your own mind perceives itself as totally harmless. Once it |
| Tx:6.43 | you will learn the truth that will set you free and keep you so, as | others learn it of you. The only way to have peace is to teach peace. |
| Tx:6.73 | its own split, and thus does not perceive consistent minds in | others, making him suspicious of their motivation. This is the real |
| Tx:6.73 | aware of the ego in himself and responding primarily to the ego in | others, he is being taught to react to both as if what he does |
| Tx:6.88 | in the third step, which brings together the lessons implied in the | others and goes beyond them towards real integration. |
| Tx:7.13 | an ego term, because “personal” implies “of one person” and not of | others. “Interpersonal” has a similar error in that it refers to |
| Tx:7.14 | that you will learn what you are from what you have projected onto | others and therefore believe they are. In the Kingdom there is no |
| Tx:7.42 | that he does not understand God if he thinks he has something that | others [do not]. You might well ask, then, why some healing can |
| Tx:7.78 | of it, and by projecting your own rejection, you believe that | others are taking it from you. One must be fearful if he believes |
| Tx:7.79 | this is what he believes. Projection always sees your will in | others. If you will to separate yourself from God, that is what you |
| Tx:7.79 | you will to separate yourself from God, that is what you will think | others are doing to you. |
| Tx:8.28 | and abide in His Will. As God sent me to you, so will I send you to | others, and I will go to them with you so we can teach them [union |
| Tx:8.54 | separates through the body. The Holy Spirit reaches through it to | others. You do not perceive your brothers as the Holy Spirit does, |
| Tx:8.112 | the Holy Spirit or believe that it is for you unless you hear it in | others. It must be for your brother because it is for you. Would God |
| Tx:9.31 | How, then, can you perceive Him at all? If you inspire joy, and | others react to you with joy even though you are not experiencing joy |
| Tx:9.31 | you and can produce joy, and if you see that it does produce joy in | others, you must be dissociating it in yourself. |
| Tx:9.32 | in you only because you do not consistently arouse joy in | others. Their reactions to you are your evaluations of His |
| Tx:9.35 | how to awaken. Very simply the Holy Spirit teaches you to awaken | others. As you see them waken, you will learn what waking means, and |
| Tx:9.54 | triumph, but you are exalted. And in your exalted state, you seek | others like you and rejoice with them. |
| Tx:9.94 | God will inevitably result in projection, and you will believe that | others, and not yourself, have done this to you. You will receive the |
| Tx:10.35 | therefore ego identification and as strong an ego defense as blaming | others. You cannot enter God's Presence if you attack His Son. When |
| Tx:10.66 | of dreams and the awareness of Christ comes with the awakening of | others to share your redemption. |
| Tx:11.1 | justification for the response. That is why analyzing the motives of | others is hazardous to you. If you decide that someone is really |
| Tx:11.9 | By applying the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the reactions of | others more and more consistently, you will gain an increasing |
| Tx:11.9 | Consider how well the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the motives of | others will serve you then. |
| Tx:11.10 | Having taught you to accept only loving thoughts in | others and to regard everything else as an appeal for help, He has |
| Tx:11.11 | is a symptom of your deep sense of loss. If when you perceive it in | others you learn to supply the loss, the basic cause of fear is |
| Tx:11.45 | by recognizing that your attack on yourself had no effects. For | others do react to attack if they perceive it, and if you are trying |
| Tx:12.35 | that you must attack yourself first, for what you attack is not in | others. Its only reality is in your own mind, and by attacking |
| Tx:12.35 | in others. Its only reality is in your own mind, and by attacking | others, you are literally attacking what is not there. |
| Tx:12.55 | will join with theirs in power so compelling that it will draw the | others out of darkness as you look on them. |
| Tx:14.49 | larger or better, wiser or more productive and valuable than | others. And this is true about the thoughts which cross the mind of |
| Tx:14.49 | who think they live apart. For some are reflections of Heaven, while | others are motivated by the ego, which but seems to think. The result |
| Tx:15.47 | decide that special aspects of the Sonship can give you more than | others? The past has taught you this. Yet the holy instant teaches |
| Tx:15.68 | to you. For it is the ego's fundamental doctrine that what you do to | others, you have escaped. The ego wishes no one well. Yet its |
| Tx:15.105 | perceive yourself as a victim of sacrifice, justified in sacrificing | others. For who could thrust Heaven and its Creator aside without a |
| Tx:16.33 | living and use them for any purpose which they would not share with | others, are trying to live with guilt rather than die of it. This is |
| Tx:16.61 | for limiting your self to a body and for limiting your perception of | others to theirs. The Great Rays would establish the total lack of |
| Tx:17.32 | more willing to let go. While this one remains, you will not let the | others go. For this one is not different. Retain this one, and you |
| Tx:17.72 | you are faithless to your own relationship. Your faith will call the | others to share your purpose, as this same purpose called forth the |
| Tx:18.57 | is outside you, and but seems to surround you, shutting you off from | others and keeping you apart from them [and them from you]. It is not |
| Tx:18.68 | use of the course if you insist on using means which have served | others well, neglecting what was made for you. Save time for me by |
| Tx:19.21 | at its disposal. For here lies its “best” defense which all the | others serve. Here is its armor, its protection, and the fundamental |
| Tx:19.37 | will encounter many obstacles. Some of them you will try to impose. | Others will seem to arise from elsewhere—from your brothers and |
| Tx:19.37 | The extension of the Holy Spirit's purpose from your relationship to | others to bring them gently in [has already begun. This is the way in |
| Tx:19.40 | it. You are the center from which it radiates outward to call the | others in. You are its home, its tranquil dwelling-place from which |
| Tx:19.53 | They are as eager to return to you what they hold dear as are the | others. If you send them forth, they will see only the blameless and |
| Tx:20.27 | no fear in perfect love because it knows no sin and it must look on | others as on itself. Looking with charity within, what can it fear |
| Tx:20.58 | The seeming inconsistencies or parts you find more difficult than | others are merely indications of areas where means and end are still |
| Tx:21.55 | is not reinterpreted and redirected from the goal of sin as are the | others. For reason is beyond the ego's range of means. |
| Tx:21.76 | not yet the last. For this one still seems fearful and unlike the | others. Yet reason would assure you they are all the same. We said |
| Tx:21.81 | you why. It is the same as are the other three except in time. The | others are decisions which can be made and then unmade and made |
| Tx:21.83 | Why do you think you are unsure the | others have been answered? Could it be necessary they be asked so |
| Tx:21.89 | decided how you would answer the final question. Your answer to the | others has made it possible to help you be but partially insane. And |
| Tx:22.56 | you will remember. Who can deny himself the vision that he brings to | others? And who would fail to recognize a gift he let be laid in |
| Tx:23.20 | separate and has a different set of thoughts which sets him off from | others. This principle evolves from the belief there is a hierarchy |
| Tx:23.21 | making it appear that some of them are harder to overcome than | others. If it were realized that they are all the same and equally |
| Tx:23.27 | what it takes. This leads to the fourth law of chaos, which, if the | others are accepted, must be true. This seeming law is the belief you |
| Tx:23.38 | conflict, making it seem quite possible to value some above the | others. Yet each one rests as surely on the belief the laws of chaos |
| Tx:23.38 | on the belief the laws of chaos are the laws of order as do the | others. Each one upholds these laws completely, offering a certain |
| Tx:25.43 | of his sight rests on himself with all the tenderness it offers | others. For he would only heal and only bless. And being in accord |
| Tx:25.83 | can there be in miracles, unless someone deserves to suffer more and | others less? And is this justice to the wholly innocent? A miracle is |
| Tx:25.83 | is justice. It is not a special gift to some to be withheld from | others as less worthy, more condemned, and thus apart from healing. |
| Tx:25.84 | given specially to an elect and special group and kept apart from | others as less deserving, then is He ally to specialness. What He |
| Tx:26.10 | for you. He has not greater difficulty in resolving some than | others. Every problem is the same to Him, because each one is solved |
| Tx:26.14 | it safe to give but some mistakes to be corrected while you keep the | others to yourself, remember this: justice is total. There is no such |
| Tx:26.51 | illusion has any truth in it. Yet it appears some are more true than | others, although this clearly makes no sense at all. All that a |
| Tx:27.39 | sin do you prefer? That is the one which you should choose. The | others are not true. What can the body get that you would want the |
| Tx:27.84 | The world but demonstrates an ancient truth—you will believe that | others do to you exactly what you think you did to them. But once |
| Tx:29.25 | the dream, but only on awaking. Could it be some dreams are kept and | others wakened from? The choice is not between which dreams to keep, |
| Tx:30.75 | of a fixed belief that some appearances are harder to look past than | others are. It always means you think forgiveness must be limited. |
| Tx:31.54 | and someone must have first decided on the one to choose and let the | others go. |
| W1:I.5 | Some of the ideas you will find hard to believe, and | others will seem quite startling. It does not matter. You are merely |
| W1:5.5 | and to avoid giving greater weight to some subjects than to | others. It might help to precede the exercises with the statement: |
| W1:5.8 | to apply today's idea to some perceived sources of upset than to | others. If this occurs, think first of this: |
| W1:5.9 | I cannot keep this form of upset and let the | others go. For the purposes of these exercises, then, I will regard |
| W1:6.4 | you resist applying the idea to some upsetting thoughts more than to | others, remind yourself of the two cautions stated in the previous |
| W1:6.7 | I cannot keep this form of upset and let the | others go. For the purposes of these exercises, then, I will regard |
| W1:14.7 | part of the world you see. Some of them are shared illusions, and | others are part of your personal hell. It does not matter. What God |
| W1:21.3 | will probably be tempted to dwell more on some situations than on | others on the fallacious grounds that they are more “obvious.” This |
| W1:21.3 | of the belief that some forms of attack are more justified than | others. |
| W1:R1.2 | the day. If any one of the five ideas appeals to you more than the | others, concentrate on that one. At the end of the day, however, be |
| W1:54.4 | As my thoughts of separation call to the separation thoughts of | others, so my real thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the |
| W1:61.3 | saved and an acknowledgment of the power that is given you to save | others. |
| W1:65.1 | cannot be the only purpose you hold while you still cherish | others. The full acceptance of salvation as your only function |
| W1:72.8 | world you see. Some hate the body and try to hurt and humiliate it. | Others love the body and try to glorify and exalt it. But while it |
| W1:79.5 | unexpectedly, just as you think you have resolved the previous ones. | Others remain unsolved under a cloud of denial and rise to haunt you |
| W1:92.7 | cannot see a purpose in forgiveness and in love. It sees all | others different from itself and nothing in the world that it would |
| W1:108.12 | too, to think of one to whom to give your gifts. He represents the | others, and through him you give to all. |
| W1:127.2 | bestowed on one and yet remain itself although it is withheld from | others. To believe these things of love is not to understand it. If |
| W1:132.8 | Some see it suddenly on point of death and rise to teach it. | Others find it in experience that is not of this world, which shows |
| W1:133.9 | Your next consideration is the one on which the | others rest. Why is the choice you make of value to you? What |
| W1:137.1 | dwell on sickness and on separate states. Sickness is a retreat from | others and a shutting off of joining. It becomes a door that closes |
| W1:137.2 | it seems to keep one self apart from all the rest to suffer what the | others do not feel. It gives the body final power to make the |
| W1:138.6 | rest, this one remains unsolved. But when you solve this one, the | others are resolved with it, for all decisions but conceal this one |
| W1:140.9 | and no beliefs that what does not exist is truer in some forms than | others. All of them are false and can be cured because they are not |
| W1:155.4 | from a sense of loss and have not been released accordingly. | Others have chosen nothing but the world, and they have suffered from |
| W1:155.5 | behind. This is the way appointed for you now. You walk this path as | others walk, nor do you seem to be distinct from them although you |
| W1:156.2 | true. It cannot contradict itself nor be in parts uncertain and in | others sure. You cannot walk the world apart from God because you |
| W1:181.2 | This faith receives its only sure support from what you see in | others past their sins. For their mistakes, if focused on, are |
| W1:182.2 | they play to occupy their time and keep their sadness from them. | Others will deny that they are sad and do not recognize their tears |
| W1:182.2 | that they are sad and do not recognize their tears at all. Still | others will maintain that what we speak of is illusion, not to be |
| W1:185.5 | recognizing that another dream would offer nothing more than all the | others. Dreams are one to him. And he has learned their only |
| W1:185.8 | not some dreams be more acceptable, reserving shame and secrecy for | others. They are one. |
| W1:195.1 | The most that they can do is see themselves as better off than | others. And they try to be content because another seems to suffer |
| W1:195.1 | deprecating are such thoughts! For who has cause for thanks while | others have less cause, and who could suffer less because he sees |
| W1:195.4 | will find their freedom. It will never be that some are loosed while | others still are bound, for who can bargain in the name of love? |
| W1:196.5 | The dreary, hopeless thought that you can make attacks on | others and escape yourself has nailed you to the cross. Perhaps it |
| W1:198.3 | all other dreams away, and though it is itself a dream, it breeds no | others. All illusions save this one must multiply a thousand fold. |
| M:I.2 | one or the other is true all the time. From your demonstration, | others learn and so do you. The question is not whether you will |
| M:I.2 | done by words alone. Any situation must be to you a chance to teach | others what you are and what they are to you. No more than that, but |
| M:I.3 | by what you think you are and what you believe the relationship of | others is to you. In the formal teaching situation, these questions |
| M:4.11 | of God's teachers rest on trust. Once that has been achieved, the | others cannot fail to follow. Only the trusting can afford honesty, |
| M:4.21 | some aspects of his life to bring to his learning while keeping | others apart? If so, his advancement is limited and his trust not yet |
| M:8.2 | interests of its own and able to gratify its needs at the expense of | others. |
| M:8.6 | acknowledge them. There will be those who seem to be “sicker” than | others, and the body's eyes will report their changed appearances as |
| M:22.4 | sickness, both in the individual's perception of himself and of all | others as well. Nor is it at this level that the teacher of God calls |
| M:23.2 | the world. Indeed, he has already done so. Temptation may recur to | others, but never to this one. He has become the risen Son of God. He |
| M:24.5 | God should not believe in reincarnation himself or discuss it with | others who do? The answer is certainly not! If he does believe in |
| M:26.1 | the necessary understanding as yet, but they have joined with | others. This is what sets them apart from the world. And it is this |
| M:26.1 | is what sets them apart from the world. And it is this that enables | others to leave the world with them. Alone they are nothing. But in |
| M:29.1 | cases, it may be helpful for the pupil to read the manual first. | Others might do better to begin with the workbook. Still others may |
| M:29.1 | first. Others might do better to begin with the workbook. Still | others may need to start at the more abstract level of the text. |

| Tx:21.22 | tell you what must happen, you gave reality. And what would show you | otherwise must therefore seem unreal. All that is asked of you is to |
| Tx:21.28 | loving Father Who created you together and as one. See what “proves” | otherwise, and you deny your whole reality. But grant that everything |
| Tx:21.44 | identify is not afraid to look upon itself. It knows no sin. How, | otherwise, could it have been willing to see the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:23.8 | because it thinks that triumph over you is possible. And God thinks | otherwise. This is no war—only the mad belief the Will of God can |

| Tx:31.93 | Yet this a vision is which you must share with everyone you see, for | otherwise you will behold it not. To give this gift is how to make it |

| W1:159.1 | believes that to possess a thing, it must be kept. Salvation teaches | otherwise. To give is how to recognize you have received. It is the |
| W1:185.9 | of God?” This is the choice you make. Be not deceived that it is | otherwise. No compromise is possible in this. You choose God's peace, |
| W1:186.4 | if He deems us worthy, so we are. It is but arrogance that judges | otherwise. |
| W1:195.6 | is Himself completion. We give thanks for every living thing, for | otherwise we offer thanks for nothing and we fail to recognize the |

| Tx:5.31 | The power of | our joint motivation is beyond belief but not beyond accomplishment. |

| Tx:5.81 | I have shown you infinite patience because my will is that of | our Father, from Whom I learned of infinite patience. His Voice was |

| Tx:6.38 | of the world. Each of us is the light of the world, and by joining | our minds in this light, we proclaim the Kingdom of God together and |
| Tx:7.51 | Him. To forget me is to forget yourself and Him Who created you. | Our brothers are forgetful. That is why they need your remembrance of |
| Tx:7.52 | me and learn of the truth in you. The mind we share is shared by all | our brothers, and as we see them truly, they will be healed. Let your |
| Tx:7.52 | be healed. Let your mind shine with mine upon their minds and by | our gratitude to them make them aware of the light in them. |

| Tx:8.33 | your remembrance of yourself. In our remembrance of each other lies | our remembrance of God, and in this remembrance lies your freedom, |

| Tx:8.42 | and gather in our brothers as we continue together. Every gain in | our strength is offered for all, so they too can lay aside their |
| Tx:8.49 | because I asked it of Him and learned of what He had already given. | Our function is to function together, because apart from each other |
| Tx:8.50 | Our creations are as holy as we are, and we are the Sons of God | |
| Tx:8.50 | are the Sons of God Himself and therefore as holy as He is. Through | our creations, we extend our love and thus increase the joy of the |

| Tx:10.4 | shrinking, you will also have looked upon ours. I come to you from | our Father to offer you everything again. Do not refuse it in order |
| Tx:10.39 | merely looking honestly for truth. The “dynamics” of the ego will be | our lesson for a while, for we must look first at this to look beyond |
| Tx:11.20 | myself, for I awoke for you. In my resurrection is your release. | Our mission is to escape crucifixion, not redemption. Trust in my |
| Tx:11.20 | in my help, for I did not walk alone, and I will walk with you as | our Father walked with me. Did you not know that I walked with Him in |
| Tx:11.42 | The Atonement was not the price of | our wholeness, but it was the price of your awareness of your |
| Tx:12.75 | like a veil of light across the world's sad face, in which we hide | our brothers from the world, and it from them. |
| Tx:13.32 | within you. Let us look upon him together and love him. For in | our love of him is your guiltlessness. But look upon yourself, and |
| Tx:13.34 | we stand before the gates of Heaven where we will surely enter in | our blamelessness. God loves you. Could I, then, lack faith in you |
| Tx:14.13 | Blessed are you who teach with me. | Our power comes not of us but of our Father. In guiltlessness we know |
| Tx:14.13 | Blessed are you who teach with me. Our power comes not of us but of | our Father. In guiltlessness we know Him, as He knows us guiltless. I |
| Tx:15.29 | this world, join with me, who decided for holiness for you. It is | our task together to restore the awareness of magnitude to the host |
| Tx:15.57 | or it would be a limited gift to you. In the holy instant, we share | our faith in God's Son because we recognize together that he is |
| Tx:15.57 | because we recognize together that he is wholly worthy of it, and in | our appreciation of his worth, we cannot doubt his holiness. And so |
| Tx:15.86 | Our task is but to continue as fast as possible the necessary process | |
| Tx:15.94 | We who are one cannot give separately. When you are willing to accept | our relationship as real, guilt will hold no attraction for you. For |
| Tx:15.94 | relationship as real, guilt will hold no attraction for you. For in | our union, you will accept all of our brothers. The gift of union is |
| Tx:15.94 | hold no attraction for you. For in our union, you will accept all of | our brothers. The gift of union is the only gift that I was born to |
| Tx:15.103 | that you may join with Him in healing, and let us celebrate | our release together by releasing everyone with us. Leave nothing |
| Tx:15.103 | it with me. All pain and sacrifice and littleness will disappear in | our relationship, which is as innocent as our relationship with our |
| Tx:15.103 | will disappear in our relationship, which is as innocent as | our relationship with our Father, and as powerful. Pain will be |
| Tx:15.103 | in our relationship, which is as innocent as our relationship with | our Father, and as powerful. Pain will be brought to us and disappear |
| Tx:15.103 | Father, and as powerful. Pain will be brought to us and disappear in | our presence, and without pain there can be no sacrifice. And without |
| Tx:15.112 | same. And let all your relationships be made holy for you. This is | our will. Amen. |
| Tx:16.81 | Forgive us | our illusions, Father, and help us to accept our true relationship |
| Tx:16.81 | Forgive us our illusions, Father, and help us to accept | our true relationship with You in which there are no illusions and |
| Tx:16.81 | You in which there are no illusions and where none can ever enter. | Our holiness is Yours. What can there be in us that needs forgiveness |
| Tx:17.42 | ascend in peace together to the Father by giving Him ascendance in | our minds. We will gain everything by giving Him the power and the |
| Tx:17.42 | the whole. The whole reality of your relationship with Him lies in | our relationship to one another. The holy instant shines alike on all |
| Tx:18.10 | Let us join in Him in peace and gratitude and accept His gift as | our most holy and perfect reality, which we share in Him. |
| Tx:18.30 | from the holy instant to which you brought it. We are made whole in | our desire to make whole. Let not time worry you, for all the fear |
| Tx:18.95 | lead to knowledge, but knowledge itself is still beyond the scope of | our curriculum. Nor is there any need for us to try to speak of what |
| Tx:19.4 | Do not overlook | our earlier statement that faithlessness leads straight to illusions. |
| Tx:19.64 | be asked of you? There is no obstacle which you can place before | our union, for in your holy relationship, I am there already. We will |
| Tx:19.67 | keep away One Who is there already. And in Him it is possible that | our communion, where we are joined already, will be the focus of the |
| Tx:19.68 | it. If peace is homeless, so are you and so am I. And He Who is | our home is homeless with us. Is this your will? Would you forever be |
| Tx:19.85 | against the ego's savage wish to kill. My brothers, children of | our Father, this is a dream of death. There is no funeral, no dark |
| Tx:20.12 | the glad refrain the Son of God was never crucified. Let us lift up | our eyes together, not in fear, but faith. And there will be no fear |
| Tx:20.12 | not in fear, but faith. And there will be no fear in us, for in | our vision will be no illusions—only a pathway to the open door of |
| Tx:20.13 | each other's way. The holiness that leads us is within us, as is | our home. So will we find what we were meant to find by Him Who leads |
| Tx:20.26 | and my Self. Your gift unto each other has given me the certainty | our union will be soon. |
| Tx:28.28 | What waits in perfect certainty beyond salvation is not | our concern. For you have barely started to allow your first |
| Tx:30.88 | of symbols are we joined so that they mean the same to all of us. | Our common language lets us speak to all our brothers and to |
| Tx:30.88 | mean the same to all of us. Our common language lets us speak to all | our brothers and to understand with them forgiveness has been given |
| Tx:31.12 | of what things mean and what their purpose is. Let us remember not | our own ideas of what the world is for. We do not know. Let every |
| Tx:31.12 | We do not know. Let every image held of [anyone] be loosened from | our minds and swept away. Be innocent of judgment, unaware of any |
| Tx:31.94 | the loveliness which they concealed appear like lawns of Heaven to | our sight to lift us high above the thorny roads we traveled on |
| W1:10.3 | that you are not thinking. This is merely another way of repeating | our earlier statement that your mind is really a blank. To recognize |
| W1:13.8 | any signs of overt or covert fear which it may arouse. This is | our first attempt at stating an explicit cause and effect |
| W1:14.3 | into fear. You will not be left there. You will go far beyond it. | Our direction is toward perfect safety and perfect peace. |
| W1:20.1 | We have been quite casual about | our practice periods thus far. There has been virtually no attempt to |
| W1:20.2 | This is | our first attempt to introduce structure. Do not misconstrue it as an |
| W1:20.3 | not mistake the little effort that is asked of you for a sign that | our goal is of little worth. Can the salvation of the world be a |

| W1:29.4 | Our six two-minute practice periods for today should follow a now | |
| W1:30.2 | it outside. Instead, we are trying to see in the world what is in | our minds, and what we want to recognize is there. Thus we are trying |
| W1:41.4 | and obscuring, yet representing all you see? Today we will make | our first real attempt to get past this dark and heavy cloud and to |
| W1:45.4 | Our three five-minute practice periods for today will take the same | |

| W1:56.1 | Our review for today covers the following: | |
| W1:63.3 | day by acknowledging it and close the day with the thought of it in | our awareness. And throughout the day, we will repeat this as often |
| W1:64.3 | To review | our last few lessons, your function here is to be the light of the |
| W1:66.1 | You have surely noticed an emphasis throughout | our recent lessons on the connection between fulfilling your function |
| W1:66.4 | Our longer practice period today has as its purpose your acceptance | |
| W1:66.12 | Try to make this choice as you think about the premises on which | our conclusion rests. We can share in this conclusion, but in no |
| W1:69.2 | real attempt to reach the light in you. Before we undertake this in | our more extended practice period, let us devote several minutes in |
| W1:69.3 | Let us begin | our longer practice period today with the full realization of all |
| W1:69.3 | to reach what is dearer to us than all else. Salvation is | our only need. There is no other purpose here and no other function |
| W1:69.3 | purpose here and no other function to fulfill. Learning salvation is | our only goal. Let us end the ancient search today by finding the |
| W1:72.10 | it was placed by God. It is the body that is outside us and is not | our concern. To be without a body is to be in our natural state. To |
| W1:72.10 | outside us and is not our concern. To be without a body is to be in | our natural state. To recognize the light of truth in us is to |
| W1:72.10 | the light of truth in us is to recognize ourselves as we are. To see | our Self as separate from the body is to end the attack on God's plan |
| W1:72.11 | Our goal in the longer practice periods today is to become aware that | |
| W1:72.14 | for salvation without waiting to hear what it is. We have shouted | our grievances so loudly that we have not listened to His Voice. We |
| W1:72.14 | so loudly that we have not listened to His Voice. We have used | our grievances to close our eyes and stop our ears. Now we would see |

| W1:73.10 | We will begin | our longer practice periods with the recognition that God's plan for |
| W1:74.1 | for today can be regarded as the central thought toward which all | our exercises are directed. God's is the only will. When you have |
| W1:75.3 | Our exercises for today will be happy ones in which we offer thanks | |
| W1:75.3 | the beginning of the new. No shadows from the past remain to darken | our sight and hide the world forgiveness offers us. Today we will |
| W1:75.4 | Our longer practice periods will be devoted to looking at the world | |
| W1:75.4 | practice periods will be devoted to looking at the world which | our forgiveness shows us. This is what we want to see, and only this. |
| W1:75.4 | forgiveness shows us. This is what we want to see, and only this. | Our single purpose makes our goal inevitable. Today the real world |
| W1:75.4 | This is what we want to see, and only this. Our single purpose makes | our goal inevitable. Today the real world rises before us in |
| W1:76.14 | ourselves as subject to other laws throughout the day. It is | our statement of freedom from all danger and all tyranny. It is our |
| W1:76.14 | is our statement of freedom from all danger and all tyranny. It is | our acknowledgment that God is our Father and that His Son is saved. |
| W1:76.14 | all danger and all tyranny. It is our acknowledgment that God is | our Father and that His Son is saved. |
| W1:77.7 | Our shorter practice periods will be frequent and will also be | |
| W1:78.2 | not wait before the shield of hate, but lay it down and gently lift | our eyes in silence to behold the Son of God. |
| W1:78.4 | We will not let ourselves be blind to him; we will not look upon | our grievances. So is the seeing of the world reversed, as we look |
| W1:78.7 | Our longer practice periods today will see him in this role. We will | |
| W1:78.7 | today will see him in this role. We will attempt to hold him in | our mind, first as you now consider him. We will review his faults, |
| W1:78.8 | reality and truth that we may look on him a different way and see | our savior shining in the light of true forgiveness given unto us. We |
| W1:78.12 | the role assigned to us as part of God's salvation plan, and not | our own. Temptation falls away when we allow each one we meet to save |
| W1:78.12 | each one we meet to save us and refuse to hide his light behind | our grievances. To everyone you meet and to the ones you think of or |
| W1:79.7 | In | our longer practice periods today, we will ask what the problem is |
| W1:79.7 | to it. We will not assume that we already know. We will try to free | our minds of all the many different kinds of problems that we think |
| W1:79.8 | Our exercises for today will be successful to the extent to which we | |
| W1:79.8 | on defining the problem. Perhaps we will not succeed in letting all | our preconceived notions go, but that is not necessary. All that is |
| W1:79.8 | that is necessary is to entertain some doubt about the reality of | our version of what our problems are. We are trying to recognize that |
| W1:79.8 | is to entertain some doubt about the reality of our version of what | our problems are. We are trying to recognize that we have been given |

| W1:80.4 | In | our longer practice periods today, we will claim the peace that must |
| W1:R2.1 | We are now ready for another review. We will begin where | our last review left off and cover two ideas each day. The earlier |
| W1:81.1 | Our ideas for review today are: | |
| W1:87.1 | Our review today will cover these ideas: | |
| W1:89.1 | These are | our review ideas for today: |
| W1:89.7 | I would not hold this grievance apart from my salvation. Let | our grievances be replaced by miracles, [name]. Beyond this is the |
| W1:91.8 | The question with which this statement ends is needed for | our exercises today. What you think you are is a belief to be undone. |
| W1:93.8 | In | our longer exercise periods today, which would be most profitable if |
| W1:93.8 | of every waking hour, we will begin by stating the truth about | our creation: |
| W1:95.3 | can hear and see and what makes perfect sense. We will again direct | our exercises towards reaching your One Self, which is united with |
| W1:95.9 | for the next week or so, to be willing to forgive ourselves for | our lapses in diligence and our failures to follow the instructions |
| W1:95.9 | to be willing to forgive ourselves for our lapses in diligence and | our failures to follow the instructions for practicing the day's idea. |
| W1:95.10 | will enable us to overlook it, rather than give it power to delay | our learning. If we give it power to do this, we are regarding it as |
| W1:95.21 | You are One Self with me, united with | our Creator in this Self. I honor you because of what I am, and what |
| W1:96.9 | your mind is guaranteed by Him Who speaks to you from your One Self. | Our hourly five minute practicing will be a search for Him within |

| W1:98.4 | made. Those still uncertain too will join with us and, borrowing | our certainty, will make it stronger still. While those as yet unborn |
| W1:100.5 | fail to take the part that is essential to God's plan as well as to | our vision. Sadness is the sign that you would play another part |
| W1:100.6 | Today we will attempt to understand joy is | our function here. If you are sad, your part is unfulfilled and all |
| W1:100.7 | in your happy face. We will prepare ourselves for this today in | our five minute practice periods by feeling happiness arise in us |
| W1:100.7 | practice periods by feeling happiness arise in us according to | our Father's Will and ours. |
| W1:102.3 | For several days we will continue to devote | our longer practice periods to exercises planned to help you reach |
| W1:104.2 | holy altar where God's gifts belong. These are the gifts which are | our own in truth. His are the gifts which we inherited before time |
| W1:104.3 | now and know in choosing them in place of what we made we but unite | our will with what God wills and recognize the same as being one. |
| W1:104.4 | Our longer practice periods today, the hourly five minutes given | |
| W1:104.7 | We clear a holy place within | our minds before His altar, where His gifts of peace and joy are |
| W1:105.7 | Today | our practice periods will start a little differently. Begin today by |
| W1:107.8 | We merely ask for what belongs to us, that we may recognize it as | our own. |
| W1:107.9 | born of truth. The shaky and unsteady footsteps of illusion is not | our approach today. We are as certain of success as we are sure we |
| W1:108.13 | Our very simple lesson for today will teach you much. Effect and | |
| W1:109.1 | on danger and on sorrow. And we have the thought that will answer | our asking with what we request. |
| W1:109.11 | We rest together here, for thus | our rest is made complete, and what we give today we have received |
| W1:110.10 | we make a great advance to truth by letting idols go and opening | our hands and hearts and minds to God today. |
| W1:110.11 | remember Him. And we will say, that we may be reminded of His Son, | our holy Self, the Christ in each of us: |
| W1:R3.1 | Our third review begins today. We will review two of the last 20 | |
| W1:R3.2 | to be sure that you catch up in terms of numbers. Rituals are not | our aim and would defeat our goal. |
| W1:R3.2 | up in terms of numbers. Rituals are not our aim and would defeat | our goal. |
| W1:122.9 | Remembering the gifts forgiveness gives, we undertake | our practicing today with hope and faith that this will be the day |
| W1:122.9 | and gladly will we seek for it today, aware we hold the key within | our hands, accepting Heaven's answer to the hell we made, but where |
| W1:123.1 | objections, and a little hesitance, but we can well be grateful for | our gains, which are far greater than we realize. |

| W1:123.4 | thankfulness today in honor of the Self Which God has willed to be | our true Identity in Him. Today we smile on everyone we see and walk |
| W1:123.4 | appointed us to do. We do not go alone. And we give thanks that in | our solitude a Friend has come to speak the saving Word of God to us. |
| W1:124.1 | Today we will again give thanks for | our Identity in God. Our home is safe, protection guaranteed in all |
| W1:124.1 | Today we will again give thanks for our Identity in God. | Our home is safe, protection guaranteed in all we do, power and |
| W1:124.1 | guaranteed in all we do, power and strength available to us in all | our undertakings. We can fail in nothing. Everything we touch takes |
| W1:124.1 | and which heals. At one with God and with the universe, we go | our way rejoicing, with the thought that God Himself goes everywhere |
| W1:124.2 | How holy are | our minds! And everything we see reflects the holiness within the |
| W1:124.2 | easily do errors disappear and death give place to everlasting life. | Our shining footprints point the way to truth, for God is our |

| W1:125.3 | In stillness we will hear God's Voice today without intrusion of | our petty thoughts, without our personal desires, and without all |
| W1:125.3 | God's Voice today without intrusion of our petty thoughts, without | our personal desires, and without all judgment of His holy Word. We |
| W1:127.6 | Today we practice making free | our minds of all the laws you think you must obey, of all the limits |
| W1:127.9 | leave the past behind us, never more to be remembered. And we raise | our eyes upon a different present, where a future shines unlike the |
| W1:127.10 | enemy. Now are they all made free along with us. Now are they all | our brothers in God's Love. |
| W1:127.11 | them throughout the day because we cannot leave a part of us outside | our love if we would know our Self. At least three times an hour |
| W1:127.11 | we cannot leave a part of us outside our love if we would know | our Self. At least three times an hour think of one who makes the |
| W1:128.5 | aspects and its phases and its dreams. We hold it purposeless within | our minds and loosen it from all we wish it were. Thus do we lift the |
| W1:129.1 | there is something else to hope for, you will only be depressed. | Our emphasis is not on giving up the world but on exchanging it for |
| W1:130.7 | nor attempt to bring with us a little part of unreality as we devote | our minds to finding only what is real. |
| W1:131.12 | This we acknowledge as we start upon | our practice periods. Begin with this: |
| W1:132.15 | Today | our purpose is to free the world from all the idle thoughts we ever |
| W1:132.15 | it. They cannot be there—no more than we. For we are in the home | our Father set for us along with them. And we who are as He created |
| W1:132.15 | as He created us would loose the world this day from every one of | our illusions that we may be free. |
| W1:133.15 | Our two extended practice periods of 15 minutes will begin with this: | |
| W1:134.14 | that the time of joining be no more delayed. For we would meet with | our reality in freedom and in peace. Our practicing becomes the |
| W1:134.14 | delayed. For we would meet with our reality in freedom and in peace. | Our practicing becomes the footsteps lightening up the way for all |
| W1:134.14 | Our practicing becomes the footsteps lightening up the way for all | our brothers, who will follow us to the reality we share with them. |
| W1:135.21 | be increased until the world is lighted up with joy. And gladly will | our brothers lay aside their cumbersome defenses which availed them |
| W1:135.22 | for us. We will be sure that everything we need is given us for | our accomplishment of this today. We make no plans for how it will be |
| W1:135.22 | today. We make no plans for how it will be done but realize that | our defenselessness is all that is required for the truth to dawn |
| W1:135.22 | defenselessness is all that is required for the truth to dawn upon | our minds with certainty. |
| W1:135.23 | planning and from every thought which blocks the truth from entering | our minds. Today we will receive instead of plan, that we may give |
| W1:136.15 | if you will choose to practice giving welcome to the truth. This is | our aim today. And we will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the |
| W1:137.12 | and this cannot succeed. Today we ask that only truth will occupy | our minds, that thoughts of healing will this day go forth from what |
| W1:137.13 | We will remember, as the hour strikes, | our function is to let our minds be healed that we may carry healing |
| W1:137.13 | We will remember, as the hour strikes, our function is to let | our minds be healed that we may carry healing to the world, |
| W1:137.16 | function be forgot as every hour of the day slips by, remembering | our function with this thought: |
| W1:138.12 | Before we close | our eyes in sleep tonight, we reaffirm the choice that we have made |
| W1:138.12 | made each hour in between. And now we give the last five minutes of | our waking day to the decision with which we awoke. As every hour |
| W1:138.12 | decision with which we awoke. As every hour passed, we have declared | our choice again in a brief quiet time devoted to maintaining sanity. |
| W1:139.8 | or a statement which denies itself in statement? Let us not allow | our holy minds to occupy themselves with senseless musings such as |
| W1:139.8 | Let us not forget the goal that we accepted. It is more than just | our happiness alone we came to gain. What we accept as what we are |
| W1:139.10 | Five minutes in the morning and at night we will devote to dedicate | our minds to our assignment for today. We start with this review of |
| W1:139.10 | in the morning and at night we will devote to dedicate our minds to | our assignment for today. We start with this review of what our |
| W1:139.10 | minds to our assignment for today. We start with this review of what | our mission is: |
| W1:139.12 | it for everyone, for in creation are all minds as one and in | our memory is the recall how dear our brothers are to us in truth, |
| W1:139.12 | are all minds as one and in our memory is the recall how dear | our brothers are to us in truth, how much a part of us is every mind, |
| W1:139.12 | us is every mind, how faithful they have really been to us, and how | our Father's Love contains us all. |
| W1:139.13 | its Creator and His oneness with all aspects of creation, we repeat | our dedication to our cause today each hour, as we lay aside all |
| W1:139.13 | oneness with all aspects of creation, we repeat our dedication to | our cause today each hour, as we lay aside all thoughts that would |
| W1:139.13 | each hour, as we lay aside all thoughts that would distract us from | our holy aim. For several minutes let your mind be cleared of all the |
| W1:140.8 | Today we seek to change | our minds about the source of sickness, for we seek a cure for all |
| W1:140.8 | them. We will try today to find the source of healing, which is in | our minds because our Father placed it there for us. It is not |
| W1:140.8 | today to find the source of healing, which is in our minds because | our Father placed it there for us. It is not further from us than |
| W1:140.8 | us. It is not further from us than ourselves. It is as near to us as | our own thoughts—so close it is impossible to lose. We need but |
| W1:140.10 | So do we lay aside | our amulets, our charms and medicines, our chants and bits of magic |
| W1:140.10 | So do we lay aside our amulets, | our charms and medicines, our chants and bits of magic in whatever |
| W1:140.10 | So do we lay aside our amulets, our charms and medicines, | our chants and bits of magic in whatever form they took. We will be |
| W1:140.11 | the day by listening again five minutes more before we go to sleep. | Our only preparation is to let our interfering thoughts be laid |
| W1:140.11 | minutes more before we go to sleep. Our only preparation is to let | our interfering thoughts be laid aside, not separately, but all of |
| W1:140.11 | need to make them different and thus delay the time when we can hear | our Father speak to us. We hear Him now. We come to Him today. |
| W1:140.12 | With nothing in | our hands to which we cling, with lifted hearts and listening minds |
| W1:140.14 | soft protection and with peace so deep that no illusion can disturb | our minds nor offer proof to us that it is real. This will we learn |
| W1:140.14 | to us that it is real. This will we learn today. And we will say | our prayer for healing hourly and take a minute as the hour strikes |
| W1:140.14 | hourly and take a minute as the hour strikes to hear the answer to | our prayer be given us as we attend in silence and in joy. This is |
| W1:R4.1 | begin to concentrate on readiness for what will follow next. Such is | our aim for this review and for the lessons following. Thus we review |
| W1:R4.5 | Let us begin | our preparation with some understanding of the many forms in which |
| W1:R4.6 | So do we start each practice period in this review with readying | our minds to understand the lessons that we read and see the meaning |
| W1:R4.10 | has laid in it for you to have of Him. And we will use no format for | our practicing but this: |
| W1:R4.11 | us happiness and rest and endless quiet, perfect certainty, and all | our Father wills that we receive as the inheritance we have of Him. |
| W1:R4.12 | day a special time of blessing and of happiness for us and through | our faithfulness restored the world from darkness to the light, from |
| W1:151.13 | of the thought with which the day begins. And then we watch | our thoughts, appealing silently to Him Who sees the elements of |
| W1:151.16 | the world redeemed and joyfully released from guilt. Now do we lift | our resurrected minds in gladness and in gratitude to Him Who has |
| W1:151.16 | minds in gladness and in gratitude to Him Who has restored | our sanity to us. |
| W1:151.17 | As we give thanks the world unites with us and happily accepts | our holy thoughts which Heaven has corrected and made pure. Now has |
| W1:151.17 | our holy thoughts which Heaven has corrected and made pure. Now has | our ministry begun at last, to carry round the world the joyous news |
| W1:152.8 | and accept what we have made as what it is. The power of decision is | our own. Decide but to accept your rightful place as co-creator of |
| W1:152.10 | are sinners, guilty and afraid, ashamed of what we are. And we lift | our hearts in true humility instead to Him Who has created us |
| W1:152.10 | like to Himself in power and in love. The power of decision is | our own. And we accept of Him that which we are and humbly recognize |
| W1:152.11 | his right to Heaven and release from hell are joyously accepted as | our own. Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false |
| W1:152.12 | as we arise and spend five minutes practicing its ways, encouraging | our frightened minds with this: |
| W1:152.14 | we wait in silence, giving up all self-deceptions as we humbly ask | our Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left will |
| W1:152.14 | He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left will come again to | our awareness, grateful to restore His home to God as it was meant to |
| W1:153.8 | We will not play such childish games today. For | our true purpose is to save the world, and we would not exchange for |
| W1:153.8 | the world, and we would not exchange for foolishness the endless joy | our function offers us. We would not let our happiness slip by |
| W1:153.8 | foolishness the endless joy our function offers us. We would not let | our happiness slip by because a senseless fragment of a dream |
| W1:153.8 | slip by because a senseless fragment of a dream happened to cross | our minds, and we mistook the figures in it for the Son of God, its |
| W1:153.9 | behind. And in defenselessness we stand secure, serenely certain of | our safety now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill our chosen |
| W1:153.9 | certain of our safety now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill | our chosen purpose as our ministry extends its holy blessing through |
| W1:153.9 | now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill our chosen purpose as | our ministry extends its holy blessing through the world. |
| W1:153.13 | quiet time has come in which we put away the toys of guilt and lock | our quaint and childish thoughts of sin forever from the pure and |
| W1:153.13 | children and the Son of God. We pause but for a moment more to play | our final happy game upon this earth. And then we go to take our |
| W1:153.13 | to play our final happy game upon this earth. And then we go to take | our rightful place where truth abides and games are meaningless. |
| W1:153.15 | we will maintain for quite a while. We will begin each day by giving | our attention to the daily thought as long as possible. Five minutes |
| W1:153.15 | 15 better still. And as distraction ceases to arise to turn us from | our purpose, we will find that half an hour is too short a time to |
| W1:153.16 | Each hour adds to | our increasing peace, as we remember to be faithful to the will we |
| W1:153.16 | on us, and we will be unable to withdraw a little while and turn | our thoughts to God. |
| W1:153.17 | Yet when we can, we will observe | our trust as ministers of God in hourly remembrance of our mission |
| W1:153.17 | will observe our trust as ministers of God in hourly remembrance of | our mission and His Love. And we will quietly sit by and wait on Him |
| W1:153.19 | Today | our theme is our defenselessness. We clothe ourselves in it as we |
| W1:153.19 | Today our theme is | our defenselessness. We clothe ourselves in it as we prepare to meet |
| W1:153.19 | as we prepare to meet the day. We rise up strong in Christ and let | our weakness disappear as we remember that His strength abides in us. |
| W1:153.19 | ourselves that He remains beside us through the day and never leaves | our weakness unsupported by His strength. |
| W1:153.20 | We call upon His strength each time we feel the threat of | our defenses undermine our certainty of purpose. We will pause a |
| W1:153.20 | His strength each time we feel the threat of our defenses undermine | our certainty of purpose. We will pause a moment as He tells us, “I |
| W1:154.1 | are but attempts to hold decision off, and to delay commitment to | our function. It is not our part to judge our worth, nor can we know |
| W1:154.1 | decision off, and to delay commitment to our function. It is not | our part to judge our worth, nor can we know what role is best for |
| W1:154.1 | and to delay commitment to our function. It is not our part to judge | our worth, nor can we know what role is best for us; what we can do |
| W1:154.1 | what we can do within a larger plan we cannot see in its entirety. | Our part is cast in Heaven, not in hell. And what we think is |
| W1:154.1 | And what we think is weakness can be strength; what we believe to be | our strength is often arrogance. |
| W1:154.10 | that we undertake to recognize today. We will not seek to keep | our minds apart from Him Who speaks for us, for it is but our voice |
| W1:154.10 | to keep our minds apart from Him Who speaks for us, for it is but | our voice we hear as we attend Him. He alone can speak to us and for |
| W1:154.11 | what He would have that we may recognize His gifts to us. He needs | our voice that He may speak through us. He needs our hands to hold |
| W1:154.11 | to us. He needs our voice that He may speak through us. He needs | our hands to hold His messages and carry them to those whom He |
| W1:154.11 | hold His messages and carry them to those whom He appoints. He needs | our feet to bring us where He wills, that those who wait in misery |
| W1:154.11 | that those who wait in misery may be at last delivered. And He needs | our will united with His own, that we may be the true receivers of |
| W1:154.13 | Our lesson for today is stated thus: | |
| W1:154.15 | The world recedes as we light up | our minds and realize these holy words are true. They are the message |
| W1:154.15 | holy words are true. They are the message sent to us today from | our Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed our minds about |
| W1:154.15 | us today from our Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed | our minds about ourselves and what our function is. For as we prove |
| W1:154.15 | demonstrate how they have changed our minds about ourselves and what | our function is. For as we prove that we accept no will we do not |
| W1:154.15 | function is. For as we prove that we accept no will we do not share, | our many gifts from our Creator will spring to our sight and leap |
| W1:154.15 | we prove that we accept no will we do not share, our many gifts from | our Creator will spring to our sight and leap into our hands, and we |
| W1:154.15 | will we do not share, our many gifts from our Creator will spring to | our sight and leap into our hands, and we will understand what we |
| W1:154.15 | many gifts from our Creator will spring to our sight and leap into | our hands, and we will understand what we received. |
| W1:155.11 | as we progress along the way that truth points out to us. This is | our final journey, which we make for everyone. We must not lose our |
| W1:155.11 | is our final journey, which we make for everyone. We must not lose | our way. For as truth goes before us, so it goes before our brothers |
| W1:155.11 | not lose our way. For as truth goes before us, so it goes before | our brothers who will follow us. |
| W1:156.2 | We are not inconsistent in the thoughts that we present in | our curriculum. Truth must be true throughout if it be true. It |
| W1:157.2 | attain. It leaves us there an instant and we go beyond it, sure of | our direction and our only goal. |
| W1:157.2 | us there an instant and we go beyond it, sure of our direction and | our only goal. |
| W1:157.6 | cannot give experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a vision in | our eyes which we can offer everyone that he may come the sooner to |
| W1:158.2 | this cannot be learned. What, then, are you to learn to give today? | Our lesson yesterday evoked a theme found early in the text. |
| W1:158.6 | unlearned, untaught, unseen, is merely there. This is beyond | our goal, for it transcends what needs to be accomplished. Our |
| W1:158.6 | is beyond our goal, for it transcends what needs to be accomplished. | Our concern is with Christ's vision. This we can attain. |
| W1:159.10 | awakens us to truth. His vision gives the means for a return to | our unlost and everlasting sanctity in God. |
| W1:160.2 | There is a stranger in | our midst who comes from an idea so foreign to the truth he speaks a |
| W1:161.1 | Today we practice differently and take a stand against | our anger, that our fears may disappear and offer room to love. Here |
| W1:161.1 | we practice differently and take a stand against our anger, that | our fears may disappear and offer room to love. Here is salvation in |
| W1:161.5 | It seems to be the body that we feel limits | our freedom, makes us suffer, and at last puts out our life. Yet |
| W1:161.5 | we feel limits our freedom, makes us suffer, and at last puts out | our life. Yet bodies are but symbols of a concrete form of fear. Fear |
| W1:161.6 | Bodies attack but minds do not. This thought is surely reminiscent of | our text, where it is often emphasized. This is the reason bodies |
| W1:163.8 | death, and we renounce it now in every form for their salvation and | our own as well. God made not death. Whatever form it takes must |
| W1:163.9 | Our Father, bless our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we | |
| W1:163.9 | Our Father, bless | our eyes today. We are Your messengers, and we would look upon the |
| W1:163.9 | You and part of You forever. We accept Your thoughts as ours, and | our will is one with Yours eternally. Amen. |
| W1:164.1 | instant, now, we come to look upon what is forever there—not in | our sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks past time and sees |
| W1:164.7 | receive but what is given us from judgment made beyond the world. | Our practicing today becomes our gift of thankfulness for our release |
| W1:164.7 | us from judgment made beyond the world. Our practicing today becomes | our gift of thankfulness for our release from blindness and from |
| W1:164.7 | the world. Our practicing today becomes our gift of thankfulness for | our release from blindness and from misery. All that we see will but |
| W1:164.7 | from blindness and from misery. All that we see will but increase | our joy because its holiness reflects our own. We stand forgiven in |
| W1:164.7 | that we see will but increase our joy because its holiness reflects | our own. We stand forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the world |
| W1:164.7 | forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the world forgiven in | our own. |
| W1:164.8 | We bless the world as we behold it in the light in which | our Savior looks on us and offer it the freedom given us through His |
| W1:164.8 | and offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving vision, now | our own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go all |
| W1:165.7 | Name we practice as His Word directs we do. His sureness lies beyond | our every doubt. His love remains beyond our every fear. The thought |
| W1:165.7 | His sureness lies beyond our every doubt. His love remains beyond | our every fear. The thought of Him is still beyond all dreams and in |
| W1:165.7 | our every fear. The thought of Him is still beyond all dreams and in | our minds according to His Will. |
| W1:167.3 | this course has placed on that idea is due to its centrality in | our attempts to change your mind about yourself. It is the reason you |
| W1:167.10 | Let us today be children of the truth and not deny | our holy heritage. Our life is not as we imagine it. Who changes life |
| W1:167.10 | Let us today be children of the truth and not deny our holy heritage. | Our life is not as we imagine it. Who changes life because he shuts |
| W1:167.12 | We share | our life because we have one Source, a Source from Which perfection |
| W1:168.3 | Today we ask of God the gift He has most carefully preserved within | our hearts, waiting to be acknowledged. This the gift by which God |
| W1:168.3 | Himself and takes us in His arms and sweeps away the cobwebs of | our sleep. His gift of grace is more than just an answer. It restores |
| W1:168.5 | is a new and holy day today, for we receive what has been given us. | Our faith lies in the Giver, not our own acceptance. We acknowledge |
| W1:168.5 | we receive what has been given us. Our faith lies in the Giver, not | our own acceptance. We acknowledge our mistakes, but He to Whom all |
| W1:168.5 | Our faith lies in the Giver, not our own acceptance. We acknowledge | our mistakes, but He to Whom all error is unknown is yet the One Who |
| W1:168.5 | but He to Whom all error is unknown is yet the One Who answers | our mistakes by giving us the means to lay them down and rise to Him |
| W1:169.4 | We have perhaps appeared to contradict | our statement that the revelation of the Father and the Son as one |
| W1:169.14 | Our learning goal today does not exceed this prayer, yet in the | |
| W1:170.14 | with what we have received from You alone. We choose again and make | our choice for all our brothers, knowing they are one with us. We |
| W1:170.14 | received from You alone. We choose again and make our choice for all | our brothers, knowing they are one with us. We bring them Your |
| W1:170.14 | render us complete. In them we see Your glory, and in them we find | our peace. Holy are we because Your holiness has set us free. And we |
| W1:R5.1 | on again more certain, more sincere, with faith upheld more surely. | Our footsteps have not been unwavering, and doubts have made us walk |
| W1:R5.2 | Steady | our feet, our Father; let our doubts be quiet and our holy minds be |
| W1:R5.2 | Steady our feet, | our Father; let our doubts be quiet and our holy minds be still, and |
| W1:R5.2 | Steady our feet, our Father; let | our doubts be quiet and our holy minds be still, and speak to us. We |
| W1:R5.2 | Steady our feet, our Father; let our doubts be quiet and | our holy minds be still, and speak to us. We have no words to give to |
| W1:R5.2 | give to You. We would but listen to Your Word and make it ours. Lead | our practicing as does a father lead a little child along a way he |
| W1:R5.3 | So do we bring | our practicing to You. And if we stumble, You will raise us up. If we |
| W1:R5.3 | We wander off, but You will not forget to call us back. Quicken | our footsteps now, that we may walk more certainly and quickly unto |
| W1:R5.3 | and quickly unto You. And we accept the Word You offer us to unify | our practicing, as we review the thoughts that You have given us. |
| W1:R5.7 | will shorten time immeasurably if we keep in mind that This remains | our goal, and as we practice, it is This to which we are approaching. |
| W1:R5.7 | as we practice, it is This to which we are approaching. Let us raise | our hearts from dust to life as we remember This is promised us, and |
| W1:R5.10 | has given Him. Together we review these thoughts. Together we devote | our time and effort to them. And together we will teach them to our |
| W1:R5.10 | our time and effort to them. And together we will teach them to | our brothers. God would not have Heaven incomplete. It waits for you, |
| W1:R5.10 | without your part in me. And as I am made whole, we go together to | our ancient home, prepared for us before time was and kept unchanged |
| W1:R5.11 | is not a way we walk alone. In him I walk with you and you with me. | Our Father wills His Son be one with Him. What lives but must not |
| W1:R5.14 | With this we start each day of | our review. With this we start and end each period of practice time. |
| W1:R5.14 | thought we sleep, to waken once again with these same words upon | our lips to greet another day. No thought that we review but we |
| W1:R5.14 | but we surround with it and use the thoughts to hold it up before | our minds and keep it clear in our remembrance throughout the day. |
| W1:R5.14 | use the thoughts to hold it up before our minds and keep it clear in | our remembrance throughout the day. And thus when we have finished |
| W1:177.3 | [164] Now are we one with Him Who is | our Source. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:I2.1 | Our next few lessons make a special point of firming up your | |
| W1:I2.2 | Our lessons now are geared specifically to widening horizons and | |
| W1:I2.2 | keep your vision narrow and too limited to let you see the value of | our goal. We are attempting now to lift these blocks, however |
| W1:I2.3 | And so we start | our journey beyond words by concentrating first on what impedes our |
| W1:I2.3 | our journey beyond words by concentrating first on what impedes | our progress still. Experience of what exists beyond defensiveness |
| W1:181.3 | practicing today, we first let all such little focuses give way to | our great need to let our sinlessness become apparent. We instruct |
| W1:181.3 | first let all such little focuses give way to our great need to let | our sinlessness become apparent. We instruct our minds that it is |
| W1:181.3 | our great need to let our sinlessness become apparent. We instruct | our minds that it is this we seek and only this, for just a little |
| W1:181.3 | we seek and only this, for just a little while. We do not care about | our future goals, and what we saw an instant previous has no concern |
| W1:181.3 | for us within this interval of time wherein we practice changing | our intent. We seek for innocence and nothing else. We seek for it |
| W1:181.5 | within. We recognize that we have lost this goal if anger blocks | our way in any form. And if a brother's sins occur to us, our |
| W1:181.5 | blocks our way in any form. And if a brother's sins occur to us, | our narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn our eyes upon our |
| W1:181.5 | if a brother's sins occur to us, our narrowed focus will restrict | our sight and turn our eyes upon our own mistakes, which we will |
| W1:181.5 | occur to us, our narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn | our eyes upon our own mistakes, which we will magnify and call our |
| W1:181.5 | our narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn our eyes upon | our own mistakes, which we will magnify and call our “sins.” |
| W1:181.5 | turn our eyes upon our own mistakes, which we will magnify and call | our “sins.” |
| W1:181.6 | such blocks arise, we will transcend them with instructions to | our minds to change their focus, as we say: |
| W1:181.8 | long range goals. As each obstruction seems to block the vision of | our sinlessness, we seek but for surcease an instant from the misery |
| W1:181.9 | for fantasies. For what we seek to look upon is really there. And as | our focus goes beyond mistakes, we will behold a wholly sinless |
| W1:181.9 | eyes of Christ inevitably ours. And the love He feels for us becomes | our own as well. This will become the only thing we see reflected in |
| W1:181.10 | The world which once proclaimed | our sins becomes the proof that we are sinless. And our love for |
| W1:181.10 | once proclaimed our sins becomes the proof that we are sinless. And | our love for everyone we look upon attests to our remembrance of the |
| W1:181.10 | we are sinless. And our love for everyone we look upon attests to | our remembrance of the holy Self Which knows no sin and never could |
| W1:181.10 | without Its sinlessness. We seek for this remembrance as we turn | our minds to practicing today. We look neither ahead nor backwards. |
| W1:181.10 | ahead nor backwards. We look straight into the present. And we give | our trust to the experience we ask for now. Our sinlessness is but |
| W1:181.10 | the present. And we give our trust to the experience we ask for now. | Our sinlessness is but the Will of God. This instant is our willing |
| W1:181.10 | ask for now. Our sinlessness is but the Will of God. This instant is | our willing one with His. |
| W1:183.7 | when we say today's idea but once. And then God's Name becomes | our only thought, our only word, the only thing that occupies our |
| W1:183.7 | today's idea but once. And then God's Name becomes our only thought, | our only word, the only thing that occupies our minds, the only wish |
| W1:183.7 | our only thought, our only word, the only thing that occupies | our minds, the only wish we have, the only sound with any meaning, |
| W1:183.7 | everything that we desire to see; of everything that we would call | our own. |
| W1:183.12 | height whatever words could possibly convey, is peace eternal. In | our Father's Name, we would experience this peace today. And in His |
| W1:184.12 | who chose the teaching of the world to take the place of Heaven. In | our practicing, our purpose is to let our minds accept what He has |
| W1:184.12 | of the world to take the place of Heaven. In our practicing, | our purpose is to let our minds accept what He has given as the |
| W1:184.12 | take the place of Heaven. In our practicing, our purpose is to let | our minds accept what He has given as the answer to the pitiful |
| W1:184.13 | but have not interfered with truth at all. One Name we bring into | our practicing. One Name we use to unify our sight. |
| W1:184.13 | all. One Name we bring into our practicing. One Name we use to unify | our sight. |
| W1:184.14 | kept us blind. And we are given strength to see beyond them. Now | our sight is blessed with blessings we can give as we receive. |
| W1:184.15 | Father, | our Name is Yours. In It we are united with all living things and You |
| W1:184.15 | Your Own Reality. And we are glad and thankful we were wrong. All | our mistakes we give to You, that we may be absolved of all effects |
| W1:184.15 | our mistakes we give to You, that we may be absolved of all effects | our errors seemed to have. And we accept the truth You give in place |
| W1:184.15 | the truth You give in place of every one of them. Your Name is | our salvation and escape from what we made. Your Name unites us in |
| W1:184.15 | from what we made. Your Name unites us in the Oneness which is | our inheritance and peace. Amen. |
| W1:185.7 | Let us today devote | our practicing to recognizing that we really mean the words we say. |
| W1:185.14 | It is this one intent we seek today, uniting | our desires with the need of every heart, the call of every mind, the |
| W1:186.2 | Let us not fight | our function. We did not establish it. It is not our idea. The means |
| W1:186.2 | Let us not fight our function. We did not establish it. It is not | our idea. The means are given us by which it will be perfectly |
| W1:186.2 | be perfectly accomplished. All that we are asked to do is to accept | our part in genuine humility and not deny with self-deceiving |
| W1:186.2 | we are worthy. What is given us to do we have the strength to do. | Our minds are suited perfectly to take the part assigned to us by One |
| W1:186.3 | what could arrogance deny but this? Today we will not shrink from | our assignment on the specious grounds that modesty is outraged. It |
| W1:186.4 | God's Voice reveal to us what He would have us do. We do not doubt | our adequacy for the function He will offer us. We will be certain |
| W1:186.4 | the function He will offer us. We will be certain only that He knows | our strengths, our wisdom, and our holiness. And if He deems us |
| W1:186.4 | will offer us. We will be certain only that He knows our strengths, | our wisdom, and our holiness. And if He deems us worthy, so we are. |
| W1:186.4 | We will be certain only that He knows our strengths, our wisdom, and | our holiness. And if He deems us worthy, so we are. It is but |
| W1:186.8 | And so we find | our peace. We will accept the function God has given us, for all |
| W1:186.8 | rest upon the weird belief that we can make another for ourselves. | Our self-made roles are shifting, and they seem to change from |
| W1:186.8 | We can laugh or weep and greet the day with welcome or with tears. | Our very being seems to change as we experience a thousand shifts in |
| W1:186.8 | seems to change as we experience a thousand shifts in mood, and | our emotions raise us high indeed or dash us to the ground in |
| W1:187.10 | we stand together as one Son of God. Not separate from Him Who is | our Source; not distant from one brother who is part of our One Self |
| W1:187.10 | Him Who is our Source; not distant from one brother who is part of | our One Self Whose innocence has joined us all as one, we stand in |
| W1:187.10 | stand in blessedness and give as we receive. The Name of God is on | our lips. And as we look within, we see the purity of Heaven shine in |
| W1:187.10 | lips. And as we look within, we see the purity of Heaven shine in | our reflection of our Father's Love. |
| W1:187.10 | look within, we see the purity of Heaven shine in our reflection of | our Father's Love. |
| W1:187.11 | see it, it will be returned to us in form of lilies we can lay upon | our altar, making it a home for Innocence Itself, Who dwells in us |
| W1:188.8 | We practice coming nearer to the light in us today. We take | our wandering thoughts and gently bring them back to where they fall |
| W1:188.8 | share with God. We will not let them stray. We let the light within | our minds direct them to come home. We have betrayed them, ordering |
| W1:188.9 | Thus are | our minds restored with them, and we acknowledge that the peace of |
| W1:188.9 | God still shines in us and from us to all living things that share | our life. We will forgive them all, absolving all the world of what |
| W1:188.9 | it be innocent, devoid of sin, and open to salvation. And we lay | our saving blessing on it as we say: |
| W1:189.9 | we do choose to let Him come. And with this choice we rest. And in | our quiet hearts and open minds His love will blaze its pathway of |
| W1:189.10 | have answered us. We will not interfere. Salvation's ways are not | our own, for they belong to You. And it is unto You we look for them. |
| W1:189.10 | own, for they belong to You. And it is unto You we look for them. | Our hands are open to receive Your gifts. We have no thoughts we |
| W1:189.10 | we would find and follow. And we ask but that Your Will, which is | our own as well, be done in us and in the world, that it becomes a |
| W1:190.11 | illusions and the truth, or pain and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let | our gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are free to |
| W1:190.11 | truth, or pain and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let our gratitude unto | our Teacher fill our hearts as we are free to choose our joy instead |
| W1:190.11 | and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let our gratitude unto our Teacher fill | our hearts as we are free to choose our joy instead of pain, our |
| W1:190.11 | gratitude unto our Teacher fill our hearts as we are free to choose | our joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, the peace of |
| W1:190.11 | fill our hearts as we are free to choose our joy instead of pain, | our holiness in place of sin, the peace of God instead of conflict, |
| W1:192.7 | its kindly light we grope in darkness, using reason but to justify | our rage and our attack. Our understanding is so limited that what we |
| W1:192.7 | light we grope in darkness, using reason but to justify our rage and | our attack. Our understanding is so limited that what we think we |
| W1:192.7 | in darkness, using reason but to justify our rage and our attack. | Our understanding is so limited that what we think we understand is |
| W1:192.7 | error. We are lost in mists of shifting dreams and fearful thoughts, | our eyes shut tight against the light, our minds engaged in |
| W1:192.7 | dreams and fearful thoughts, our eyes shut tight against the light, | our minds engaged in worshipping what is not there. |
| W1:193.10 | when we are tempted to believe that pain is real and death becomes | our choice instead of life? Shall we not learn to say these words |
| W1:193.15 | and give a little more, for now we would arise in haste and go unto | our Father's house. We have been gone too long, and we would linger |
| W1:194.1 | are we progressing now from earth! How close are we approaching to | our goal! How short the journey still to be pursued! |
| W1:194.9 | And if we are tempted to attack, we will appeal to Him Who guards | our rest to make the choice for us that leaves temptation far behind. |
| W1:194.9 | for us that leaves temptation far behind. No longer is the world | our enemy, for we have chosen that we be its friends. |
| W1:195.4 | can only be sincere if it is joined to love. We offer thanks to God | our Father that in us all things will find their freedom. It will |
| W1:195.5 | us not compare ourselves with them, for thus we split them off in | our awareness from the unity we share with them, as they must share |
| W1:195.6 | We thank | our Father for one thing alone—that we are separate from no living |
| W1:195.6 | we rejoice that no exceptions ever can be made which would reduce | our wholeness nor impair or change our function to complete the One |
| W1:195.6 | can be made which would reduce our wholeness nor impair or change | our function to complete the One Who is Himself completion. We give |
| W1:195.7 | Then let | our brothers lean their tired heads against our shoulders as they |
| W1:195.7 | Then let our brothers lean their tired heads against | our shoulders as they rest a while. We offer thanks for them. For if |
| W1:195.7 | door is swinging free again; a long forgotten Word re-echoes in | our memory and gathers clarity as we are willing once again to hear. |
| W1:195.9 | If we refuse to recognize it, we are not entitled therefore to | our bitterness and to a self-perception which regards us in a place |
| W1:195.9 | ceaselessly and pushed about without a thought or care for us or for | our future. Gratitude becomes the single thought we substitute for |
| W1:195.10 | Our gratitude will pave the way to Him and shorten our learning time | |
| W1:195.10 | Our gratitude will pave the way to Him and shorten | our learning time by more than you could ever dream of. Gratitude |
| W1:196.8 | Our next steps will be easy if you take this one today. From there we | |
| W1:198.15 | the end of everything that yet would stand between this vision and | our sight. And we are glad that we have come this far and recognize |
| W1:200.9 | Let us not lose | our way again today. We go to Heaven, and the path is straight. Only |
| W1:200.9 | wasted time on thorny byways. God alone is sure, and He will guide | our footsteps. He will not desert His Son in need, nor let him stray |
| W1:200.11 | a simple, happy way to leave the world of ambiguity and to replace | our shifting goals and solitary dreams with single purpose and |
| W1:R6.2 | With this in mind, we start | our practicing in which we carefully review the thoughts the Holy |
| W1:R6.2 | carefully review the thoughts the Holy Spirit has bestowed on us in | our last 20 lessons. Each contains the whole curriculum if |
| W1:R6.3 | These practice sessions, like | our last review, are centered round a central theme with which we |
| W1:R6.6 | a shorter path to the serenity and peace of God. We merely close | our eyes and then forget all that we thought we knew and understood. |
| W1:R6.10 | to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of peace, and gives | our thoughts whatever meaning they may have. |
| W2:I.1 | to reach the goal this course has set and find the end toward which | our practicing was geared. |
| W2:I.2 | exercise be merely a beginning. For we wait in quiet expectation for | our God and Father. He has promised He will take the final step |
| W2:I.2 | as we will need for the result that we desire. Nor will we forget | our hourly remembrance in between, calling to God when we have need |
| W2:I.2 | calling to God when we have need of Him as we are tempted to forget | our goal. |
| W2:I.3 | for all the days to come. And we will use that thought to introduce | our times of rest and calm our minds at need. Yet we will not content |
| W2:I.3 | And we will use that thought to introduce our times of rest and calm | our minds at need. Yet we will not content ourselves with simple |
| W2:I.3 | we have given God. We say some simple words of welcome and expect | our Father to reveal Himself as He has promised. We have called on |
| W2:I.4 | Now do we come to Him with but His Word upon | our minds and hearts. And wait for Him to take the step to us that He |
| W2:I.4 | to make us happy? We will offer it, and it will be accepted. So | our times with Him will now be spent. We say the words of invitation |
| W2:I.6 | given us by You. We look not backward now. We look ahead and fix | our eyes upon the journey's end. Accept these little gifts of thanks |
| W2:I.6 | the one we made and take that world to be the full replacement of | our own. |
| W2:I.7 | silence, unafraid and certain of Your coming. We have sought to find | our way by following the Guide You sent to us. We did not know the |
| W2:I.8 | go. His hand has held us up. His thoughts have lit the darkness of | our minds. His Love has called to us unceasingly since time began. |
| W2:I.9 | Himself and be what we would make of Him. And we believed that | our insane desires were the truth. Now we are glad that this is all |
| W2:I.9 | true. The memory of God is shimmering across the wide horizons of | our minds. A moment more, and it will rise again. A moment more, and |
| W2:I.11 | time, instructions on a theme of special relevance will intersperse | our daily lessons and the periods of wordless, deep experience which |
| W2:221.2 | to you, and you will hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours. | Our minds are joined. We wait with one intent—to hear our Father's |
| W2:221.2 | it is yours. Our minds are joined. We wait with one intent—to hear | our Father's answer to our call, to let our thoughts be still and |
| W2:221.2 | are joined. We wait with one intent—to hear our Father's answer to | our call, to let our thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear |
| W2:221.2 | with one intent—to hear our Father's answer to our call, to let | our thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear Him speak to us of |
| W2:222.2 | Father, we have no words except Your Name upon | our lips and in our minds as we come quietly into Your Presence now |
| W2:222.2 | Father, we have no words except Your Name upon our lips and in | our minds as we come quietly into Your Presence now and ask to rest |
| W2:223.2 | Our Father, let us see the face of Christ instead of our mistakes. | |
| W2:223.2 | Our Father, let us see the face of Christ instead of | our mistakes. For we who are Your holy Son are sinless. We would look |
| W2:223.2 | For we who are Your holy Son are sinless. We would look upon | our sinlessness, for guilt proclaims that we are not Your Son. And we |
| W2:223.2 | and long for Heaven where we are at home. Today we would return. | Our Name is Yours, and we acknowledge that we are Your Son. |
| W2:227.2 | And so today we find | our glad return to Heaven, which we never really left. The Son of God |
| W2:WS.4 | daily to this holy place and spend a while together. Here we share | our final dream. It is a dream in which there is no sorrow, for it |
| W2:WS.5 | to the world, for it is here salvation was received. The song of | our rejoicing is the call to all the world that freedom is returned, |
| W2:231.2 | And you share this will with me, and with the One as well Who is | our Father. To remember Him is Heaven. This we seek. And only this is |
| W2:234.2 | that we cannot lose the memory of You and of Your Love. We recognize | our safety and give thanks for all the gifts You have bestowed on us, |
| W2:238.2 | And so again today we pause to think how much | our Father loves us. And how dear His Son, created by His Love, |
| W2:239.1 | hidden by a false humility. Let us instead be thankful for the gifts | our Father gave us. Can we see in those with whom He shares His glory |
| W2:240.2 | How foolish are | our fears! Would You allow Your Son to suffer? Give us faith today to |
| W2:WIW.5 | Let us not rest content until the world has joined | our changed perception. Let us not be satisfied until forgiveness has |
| W2:WIW.5 | forgiveness has been made complete. And let us not attempt to change | our function. We must save the world. For we who made it must behold |
| W2:241.2 | never left, returns to Heaven and his home. How glad are we to have | our sanity restored to us, and to remember that we all are one. |
| W2:242.2 | we want. Give us what You would have received by us. You know all | our desires and our needs. And You will give us everything we want |
| W2:242.2 | us what You would have received by us. You know all our desires and | our needs. And You will give us everything we want and that will help |
| W2:244.2 | there we are in truth. No storms can come into the hallowed haven of | our home. In God are we secure. For what can come to threaten God |
| W2:249.2 | Father, we would return | our minds to You. We have betrayed them, held them in a vise of |
| W2:251.2 | And for that peace, | our Father, we give thanks. What we denied ourselves You have |
| W2:254.2 | Today we let no ego thoughts direct | our words or actions. When such thoughts occur, we quietly step back |
| W2:254.2 | stillness, hallowed by His Love, God speaks to us and tells us of | our will, as we have chosen to remember Him. |
| W2:256.1 | remains impossible, and it is this we choose to dream today. God is | our goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds return to Him |
| W2:256.1 | to dream today. God is our goal; forgiveness is the means by which | our minds return to Him at last. |
| W2:256.2 | And so, | our Father, would we come to You in Your appointed way. We have no |
| W2:257.1 | be determined to remember what we want today that we may unify | our thoughts and actions meaningfully and achieve only what God would |
| W2:257.2 | Father, forgiveness is Your chosen means for | our salvation. Let us not forget that we can have no will but Yours |
| W2:257.2 | Let us not forget that we can have no will but Yours today. And thus | our purpose must be Yours as well if we would reach the peace You |
| W2:258.1 | All that is needful is to train | our minds to overlook all little, senseless aims and to remember that |
| W2:258.1 | minds to overlook all little, senseless aims and to remember that | our goal is God. His memory is hidden in our minds, obscured but by |
| W2:258.1 | aims and to remember that our goal is God. His memory is hidden in | our minds, obscured but by our pointless little goals which offer |
| W2:258.1 | our goal is God. His memory is hidden in our minds, obscured but by | our pointless little goals which offer nothing and do not exist. |
| W2:258.1 | while the toys and trinkets of the world are sought instead? God is | our only goal, our only Love. We have no aim but to remember Him. |
| W2:258.1 | and trinkets of the world are sought instead? God is our only goal, | our only Love. We have no aim but to remember Him. |
| W2:258.2 | Our goal is but to follow in the way that leads to You. We have no | |
| W2:258.2 | this. What could we want but to remember You? What could we seek but | our Identity? |
| W2:259.1 | and the distorted seem more clear? What else but sin engenders | our attacks? What else but sin could be the source of guilt, |
| W2:260.2 | Now is | our Source remembered, and therein we find our true Identity at last. |
| W2:260.2 | Now is our Source remembered, and therein we find | our true Identity at last. Holy indeed are we because our Source can |
| W2:260.2 | we find our true Identity at last. Holy indeed are we because | our Source can know no sin. And we who are His Sons are like each |
| W2:262.1 | For he is part of me and I of him, and we are part of You Who are | our Source, eternally united in Your Love, eternally the holy Son of |
| W2:263.2 | to us that we may pass them by in innocence and walk together to | our Father's house as brothers and the holy Sons of God. |
| W2:266.2 | This day we enter into paradise, calling upon God's name and on | our own, acknowledging our Self in each of us, united in the holy |
| W2:266.2 | into paradise, calling upon God's name and on our own, acknowledging | our Self in each of us, united in the holy Love of God. How many |
| W2:268.2 | Let not | our sight be blasphemous today nor let our ears attend to lying |
| W2:268.2 | Let not our sight be blasphemous today nor let | our ears attend to lying tongues. Only reality is free of pain. Only |
| W2:269.2 | Today | our sight is blessed indeed. We share one vision as we look upon the |
| W2:269.2 | ours. We are one because of Him Who is the Son of God, of Him Who is | our own Identity. |
| W2:270.2 | The quiet of today will bless | our hearts, and through them peace will come to everyone. Christ is |
| W2:270.2 | our hearts, and through them peace will come to everyone. Christ is | our eyes today. And through His sight, we offer healing to the world |
| W2:273.1 | let us learn how to dismiss it and return to peace. We need but tell | our minds with certainty, “The stillness of the peace of God is |
| W2:274.2 | A special blessing comes to us today from Him Who is | our Father. Give this day to Him and there will be no fear today |
| W2:276.1 | and all is given us. Deny we were created in His Love, and we deny | our Self, to be unsure of who we are, of who our Father is, and for |
| W2:276.1 | His Love, and we deny our Self, to be unsure of who we are, of who | our Father is, and for what purpose we have come. And yet we need but |
| W2:276.1 | And yet we need but to acknowledge Him Who gave His Word to us in | our creation, to remember Him and so recall our Self. |
| W2:276.1 | gave His Word to us in our creation, to remember Him and so recall | our Self. |
| W2:283.2 | Now are we one in shared Identity, with God | our Father as our only Source and everything created part of us. And |
| W2:283.2 | Now are we one in shared Identity, with God our Father as | our only Source and everything created part of us. And so we offer |
| W2:283.2 | blessing to all things, uniting lovingly with all the world, which | our forgiveness has made one with us. |
| W2:286.2 | the end which God Himself has promised us. We trust in Him and in | our Self, Who still is one with Him. |
| W2:WIRW.5 | as it goes and leaving but the Truth to be Itself. That instant is | our goal, for it contains the memory of God. And as we look upon a |
| W2:WIRW.5 | it is He Who calls to us and comes to take us home, reminding us of | our Identity which our forgiveness has restored to us. |
| W2:WIRW.5 | to us and comes to take us home, reminding us of our Identity which | our forgiveness has restored to us. |
| W2:292.1 | seek and we will find according to His Will, which guarantees that | our will is done. |
| W2:296.2 | We teach today what we would learn and that alone. And so | our learning goal becomes an unconflicted one and possible of easy |
| W2:299.1 | Yet God my Father, Who created it, acknowledges my holiness as His. | Our will together understands it. And our will together knows that it |
| W2:299.1 | my holiness as His. Our will together understands it. And | our will together knows that it is so. |
| W2:300.2 | We seek Your holy world today. For we, Your loving Sons, have lost | our way a while. But we have listened to Your Voice and learned |
| W2:300.2 | Voice and learned exactly what to do to be restored to Heaven and | our true Identity. And we give thanks today the world endures but for |
| W2:WISC.5 | holy light. Behold, the Son of God is one in us, and we can reach | our Father's Love through him. |
| W2:302.1 | Father, | our eyes are opening at last. Your holy world awaits us, as our sight |
| W2:302.1 | Father, our eyes are opening at last. Your holy world awaits us, as | our sight is finally restored and we can see. We thought we suffered. |
| W2:302.1 | we had forgot the Son whom You created. Now we see that darkness is | our own imagining and light is there for us to look upon. Christ's |
| W2:302.2 | Our Love awaits us as we go to Him and walks beside us, showing us | |
| W2:305.2 | Your gift and judge it not. For it has come to us to save us from | our judgment on ourselves. |
| W2:306.2 | And so, | our Father, we return to You, remembering we never went away, |
| W2:307.2 | silently into a state where conflict cannot come because we join | our holy will with God's in recognition that they are but one. |
| W2:310.2 | this day together, you and I. And all the world joins with us in | our song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who gave salvation to us, and |
| W2:310.2 | is no room in us for fear today, for we have welcomed love into | our hearts. |
| W2:313.2 | and join with me today. We save the world when we are joined. For in | our vision it becomes as holy as the light in us. |
| W2:314.2 | to be free. Now do we leave the future in Your hands, leaving behind | our past mistakes and sure that You will keep Your present promises |
| W2:WICR.4 | creation—we the Sons of God. We seem to be discrete and unaware of | our eternal unity with Him. Yet back of all our doubts, past all our |
| W2:WICR.4 | discrete and unaware of our eternal unity with Him. Yet back of all | our doubts, past all our fears, there still is certainty. For Love |
| W2:WICR.4 | of our eternal unity with Him. Yet back of all our doubts, past all | our fears, there still is certainty. For Love remains with all Its |

| W2:330.2 | Son cannot be hurt. And if we think we suffer, we but fail to know | our one Identity we share with You. We would return to It today, to |

| W1:163.9 | to be like You and part of You forever. We accept Your thoughts as | ours, and our will is one with Yours eternally. Amen. |
| W1:170.14 | You. No cruelty abides in us for there is none in You. Your peace is | ours. And we bless the world with what we have received from You |

| Tx:20.26 | are we one, looking with perfect gentleness upon each other and on | ourselves. Here all thoughts of any separation between us become |
| W1:64.5 | to be happy or not. Let us remember this today. Let us remind | ourselves of it in the morning and again at night and all through the |
| W1:72.10 | natural state. To recognize the light of truth in us is to recognize | ourselves as we are. To see our Self as separate from the body is to |
| W1:76.12 | and understood there are no laws but God's. Then we will tell | ourselves as a dedication with which the practice period concludes: |
| W1:76.14 | an hour, as well as in response to any temptation to experience | ourselves as subject to other laws throughout the day. It is our |
| W1:77.3 | Today, however, we will also make sure that we will not content | ourselves with less. |
| W1:78.4 | Today we will attempt to see God's Son. We will not let | ourselves be blind to him; we will not look upon our grievances. So |
| W1:91.4 | great this strength, your doubts would vanish. Today we will devote | ourselves to the attempt to let you feel this strength. When you have |
| W1:95.9 | particularly for the next week or so, to be willing to forgive | ourselves for our lapses in diligence and our failures to follow the |
| W1:98.1 | between the two but take a firm position with the one. We dedicate | ourselves to truth today and to salvation as God planned it be. We |
| W1:98.3 | we may share their certainty and thus increase it by accepting it | ourselves. |
| W1:98.4 | they have come to make their choice again. We do not choose but for | ourselves today. |
| W1:100.5 | We will not let | ourselves be sad today. For if we do, we fail to take the part that |
| W1:100.7 | on you and sees His message in your happy face. We will prepare | ourselves for this today in our five minute practice periods by |
| W1:103.3 | This basic error we will try again to bring to truth today and teach | ourselves: |
| W1:104.8 | joy and peace belong to us as His eternal gifts. We will not let | ourselves lose sight of them between the times we come to seek for |
| W1:109.11 | rest. And we remind them of their resting place each time we tell | ourselves, |
| W1:124.5 | them to life. All this we see because we saw it first within | ourselves. |
| W1:124.7 | we would keep the gifts our Father gave. Today we would experience | ourselves at one with Him, so that the world may share our |
| W1:125.3 | and without all judgment of His holy Word. We will not judge | ourselves today, for what we are cannot be judged. We stand apart |
| W1:139.1 | Here is the end of choice. For here we come to a decision to accept | ourselves as God created us. And what is choice except uncertainty of |
| W1:140.8 | our Father placed it there for us. It is not further from us than | ourselves. It is as near to us as our own thoughts—so close it is |
| W1:153.19 | Today our theme is our defenselessness. We clothe | ourselves in it as we prepare to meet the day. We rise up strong in |
| W1:153.19 | as we remember that His strength abides in us. We will remind | ourselves that He remains beside us through the day and never leaves |
| W1:154.1 | humble. We have gone beyond such foolishness. We cannot judge | ourselves, nor need we do so. These are but attempts to hold decision |
| W1:154.15 | Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed our minds about | ourselves and what our function is. For as we prove that we accept no |
| W1:158.11 | today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ's vision looks upon | ourselves as well. |
| W1:165.7 | between Him and your certainty of Him. We count on God and not upon | ourselves to give us certainty. And in His Name we practice as His |
| W1:181.9 | This will become the only thing we see reflected in the world and in | ourselves. |
| W1:186.8 | illusions rest upon the weird belief that we can make another for | ourselves. Our self-made roles are shifting, and they seem to change |
| W1:193.15 | as we practice, let us think about all things we saved to settle by | ourselves and kept apart from healing. Let us give them all to Him |
| W1:195.5 | and the path of death. All these go with you. Let us not compare | ourselves with them, for thus we split them off in our awareness from |
| W2:I.3 | times of rest and calm our minds at need. Yet we will not content | ourselves with simple practicing in the remaining holy instants which |
| W2:239.1 | Let not the truth about | ourselves today be hidden by a false humility. Let us instead be |
| W2:239.2 | in this light, and one with You, at peace with all creation and | ourselves. |
| W2:251.2 | And for that peace, our Father, we give thanks. What we denied | ourselves You have restored, and only that is what we really want. |
| W2:262.2 | We who are one would recognize this day the truth about | ourselves. We would come home and rest in unity. For there is peace, |
| W2:272.2 | call to us to stay and linger in a dream, we turn aside and ask | ourselves if we, the Sons of God, could be content with dreams when |
| W2:305.2 | judge it not. For it has come to us to save us from our judgment on | ourselves. |

| Tx:1.29 | The purpose of my part in the Atonement is the canceling | out of all lacks of love which men could not otherwise correct. The |
| Tx:1.50 | following up to you. “Lead us not into temptation” means “guide us | out of our own errors.” “Take up thy cross and follow me” means, |
| Tx:1.64 | toward both. The way to perceive for Golden Rule behavior is to look | out from the perception of your own holiness and perceive the |
| Tx:1.71 | a miraculous state of mind. By being one, this state of mind goes | out to anyone, even without the awareness of the miracle worker |
| Tx:1.99 | In sorting | out the false from the true, the miracle proceeds along the following |
| Tx:1.100 | If perfect love casts | out fear, and if fear exists, then there is not perfect love. But |
| Tx:1.104 | of perceptual distortion because it induces, rather than straightens | out, the basic level confusion which underlies the perception of all |
| Tx:2.2 | Project (verb): to extend forward or | out. Project (noun): a plan in the mind. World: a natural grand |
| Tx:2.23 | False projection arises | out of false denial, not out of its proper use. My own role in the |

| Tx:2.79 | In both cases, the will and the behavior are | out of accord, resulting in a situation in which you are doing what |
| Tx:2.98 | because he himself created it. His belief in it seems to render it | out of his control by definition. Yet any attempt to resolve the |
| Tx:2.108 | by man with my help. It is a final healing rather than a meting | out of punishment, however much man may think that punishment is |
| Tx:2.109 | but continue. The first step toward freedom must entail a sorting | out of the false from the true. This is a process of division only in |
| Tx:3.12 | This particularly unfortunate interpretation, which arose | out of the combined misprojections of a large number of my would-be |
| Tx:3.16 | errors including the belief that God rejected man and forced him | out of the Garden of Eden. It is also responsible for the fact that |
| Tx:3.29 | all error. This means that if you perceive truly, you are canceling | out misperceptions in yourself and in others simultaneously. Because |
| Tx:3.30 | with cognition is because you must get your perceptions straightened | out before you can know anything. To know is to be certain. |
| Tx:3.41 | is uncertain by definition. It has to be in conflict because it is | out of accord with itself. |
| Tx:3.44 | only to know. Afterwards it willed ambiguously, and the only way | out of ambiguity is clear perception. The mind returns to its proper |
| Tx:3.48 | deal with unwilling error because it does not will to be blocked | out. I was a man who remembered the Soul and its knowledge, and as a |
| Tx:3.52 | have been greatly confused. When you make something, you make it | out of a sense of lack or need. Anything that is made is made for a |
| Tx:3.61 | this before in terms of the selectivity of perception, pointing | out that evaluation is its obvious prerequisite. |
| Tx:3.62 | only the positive aspects of what is judged, whether it be in or | out of the self. However, what has been perceived and rejected—or |
| Tx:4.8 | its maker can be misguided but cannot make the totally lifeless | out of the life-given. The Soul need not be taught, but the ego must. |
| Tx:4.32 | beyond its grasp and charity becomes impossible. The ego never gives | out of abundance, because it was made as a substitute for it. That is |
| Tx:4.45 | but also reinterprets the data. However, as Freud correctly pointed | out, what you have repressed can retain a very active life beyond |
| Tx:4.49 | what you have made, and what you made does not love you. Being made | out of the denial of the Father, the ego has no allegiance to its own |
| Tx:4.75 | tangential questions, it hopes to hide the real question and keep it | out of mind. The ego's characteristic busyness with non-essentials is |
| Tx:4.89 | and always approves my Atonement decisions because my will is never | out of accord with His. I have told you before that I am in charge of |
| Tx:4.100 | Being and its experience of His Son's experience. The constant going | out of His love is blocked when His channels are closed, and He is |
| Tx:4.102 | because they are like Him, and they can rejoice together. God goes | out to them and through them, and there is great joy throughout the |
| Tx:5.3 | of your brothers anywhere. You should want to bless them in return | out of gratitude. You do not have to know them individually or they |
| Tx:5.5 | part of the Sonship to rejoice with them and lets God Himself go | out into them and through them. Only the healed mind can experience |
| Tx:5.46 | Atonement, which I have repeatedly asked you to do, is always a way | out of fear. This does not mean that you can safely fail to |
| Tx:5.50 | You cannot cancel | out your past errors alone. They will not disappear from your mind |
| Tx:5.90 | Do you really believe you can make a voice that can drown | out His? Do you really believe that you can devise a thought system |
| Tx:5.93 | But the time is now. You have not been asked to work | out the plan of salvation yourselves because, as I told you before, |
| Tx:6.15 | which I must teach as I learned, is that no perception which is | out of accord with the judgment of the Holy Spirit can be justified. |
| Tx:6.19 | Their own imperfect love made them vulnerable to projection, and | out of their own fear they spoke of the “wrath of God” as His |
| Tx:6.23 | motivate it. The crucifixion was a complex of behaviors arising | out of clearly opposed thought systems. As such, it [is] the perfect |
| Tx:6.26 | you try to keep the fact that you must have attacked yourself first | out of awareness and thus imagine that you have made yourself safe. |
| Tx:6.53 | you can develop your abilities to the point where they can get you | out of it. You have a Guide to how to develop them, but you have no |
| Tx:6.56 | the peace of God, but it could shatter yours. God did not blot it | out, because to eradicate it would be to attack it. Being questioned, |
| Tx:6.75 | The way | out of conflict between two opposing thought systems is clearly to |
| Tx:6.79 | affirmation of what you want. This, then, is a step in the direction | out of conflict since it means that alternatives have been considered |
| Tx:6.82 | or you would share it. In your mind, and your mind only, He sorts | out the true from the false and teaches you to judge every thought |
| Tx:6.82 | is partly in accord with truth, He accepts and purifies. But what is | out of accord entirely, He rejects by judging against. This is how He |
| Tx:6.95 | you must now turn your effort against it. Only this can cancel | out the need for effort and call upon the being which you both have |
| Tx:7.34 | perception does. Properly perceived, it can be used as a way | out of conflict, as all proper perception can. |
| Tx:7.36 | in accord with the laws of God, even in a state of mind which is | out of accord with His. The strength of right perception is so great |
| Tx:7.46 | Since that is His meaning, it is also yours. Your meaning cannot be | out of accord with His because your whole meaning, and your only |
| Tx:7.46 | and your only meaning, comes from His and is like His. God cannot be | out of accord with Himself, and you cannot be out of accord with Him. |
| Tx:7.46 | His. God cannot be out of accord with Himself, and you cannot be | out of accord with Him. You cannot separate your self from your |
| Tx:7.49 | One way shows you an image, or better, an idol which you may worship | out of fear but which you will never love. The other shows you only |
| Tx:7.68 | yourselves of joy. This is not God's Will but yours. If your will is | out of accord with God's, you are willing without meaning. Yet |
| Tx:7.74 | them, and they will have no life for you, because you have put them | out of your mind. While you include them in it, you are giving life |
| Tx:7.79 | that your brothers, who are as incapable of this as you are, are | out to take God from you. Whenever a brother attacks another, this is |

| Tx:7.110 | knows only light. Its own radiance shines all around it and extends | out into the darkness of other minds, transforming them into majesty. |
| Tx:7.111 | yourselves not to see it, and this has been very difficult for you. | Out of your natural environment, you may well ask, “What is truth?” |
| Tx:8.6 | opposed ideas, it cannot be integrated. If it is carried | out by these two teachers simultaneously, each one merely interferes |
| Tx:8.10 | is what you are. The lesson is that your will and God's cannot be | out of accord, because they are one. This is the undoing of |
| Tx:8.42 | whose wholeness is for all. We begin the journey back by setting | out together and gather in our brothers as we continue together. |
| Tx:8.62 | the physical if it uses the body to go beyond itself. By reaching | out, the mind extends itself. It does not stop at the body, for if it |
| Tx:8.73 | as a false witness, because you do not realize that it is entirely | out of keeping with what you want. This witness, then, appears to be |
| Tx:8.76 | data which are true. There is no point in trying to make sense | out of meaningless data. Any way you handle them results in nothing. |
| Tx:8.82 | fear of awakening. They are attempts to reinforce unconsciousness | out of fear of consciousness. This is a pathetic way of trying not to |
| Tx:8.85 | to make mindless is impossible since it would mean to make nothing | out of what God created. The ego despises weakness, even though it |
| Tx:8.93 | help you. When we said that the Holy Spirit's function is to sort | out the true from the false in your unconscious, we meant that He has |
| Tx:9.1 | no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and right and good to point | out errors and “correct” them. This makes perfect sense to the ego, |
| Tx:9.3 | If you point | out the errors of your brother's ego, you must be seeing through |
| Tx:9.14 | are totally non-existent. By steadily and consistently canceling | out all its effects everywhere and in all respects, He teaches that |
| Tx:9.26 | situation” to which the ego always leads. It can be helpful to point | out to a patient where he is heading, but the point is lost unless he |
| Tx:9.42 | ego will begin to attack your motives as soon as they become clearly | out of accord with its perception of you. This is when it will shift |
| Tx:9.52 | it is a form of attack, but your grandeur is of God, Who created it | out of His Love. From your grandeur you can only bless, because your |
| Tx:9.85 | you think you see him, he will disappear into the nothingness | out of which he was made. |
| Tx:9.87 | have removed part of your mind from God's Will, and this means it is | out of control. To be out of control is to be out of reason, and the |
| Tx:9.87 | mind from God's Will, and this means it is out of control. To be | out of control is to be out of reason, and the mind does become |
| Tx:9.87 | and this means it is out of control. To be out of control is to be | out of reason, and the mind does become unreasonable without reason. |
| Tx:9.95 | This is the offering which your god demands because, having made him | out of your insanity, he is an insane idea. He has many forms, but |
| Tx:9.96 | Will. The “attack on God” made His Son think he was fatherless, and | out of his depression, he made the god of depression. This was his |
| Tx:9.103 | Out of your gifts to Him, the Kingdom will be restored to His Son. | |
| Tx:10.2 | the only source of perceived conflict, because the ego was made | out of the wish of God's Son to father Him. The ego, then, is nothing |
| Tx:10.3 | Open the dark cornerstone of terror on which it rests and bring it | out into the light. There you will see that it rests on |
| Tx:10.25 | mine,” you will see such beauty that you will know it is not of you. | Out of your joy you will create beauty in His name, for your joy |
| Tx:10.26 | light and in light. The Great Light always surrounds you and shines | out from you. How can you see the dark companions in a light such as |
| Tx:10.27 | spark in you is part of a light so great that it can sweep you | out of all darkness forever. For your Father is your Creator, and you |
| Tx:10.44 | is merely to recognize that their source is not natural, being | out of accord with your true nature. We once said that to will |
| Tx:10.53 | comes only through acceptance, for to analyze means to separate | out. The attempt to understand totality by breaking it up is clearly |
| Tx:10.73 | known. The real world is all that the Holy Spirit has saved for you | out of what you have made, and to perceive only this is salvation |
| Tx:11.11 | emotions of which you are capable. One is false, for it was made | out of denial, and denial depends on the real belief in what is |
| Tx:11.22 | it not. Yet your Redeemer liveth and abideth in you in the peace | out of which He was created. Would you not exchange this awareness |
| Tx:11.32 | God gave you the real world in exchange for the one you made | out of your split mind, and which is the symbol of death. For if you |
| Tx:11.33 | senseless “laws,” and without meaning of any kind. For it was made | out of what you do not want, projected from your mind because you |
| Tx:11.35 | and His Son dwell in peace and where you are welcome, you will look | out in peace and behold the world truly. Yet to find the place, you |
| Tx:11.36 | as, “Seek and do not find.” This is the one promise the ego holds | out to you and the one promise it will keep. For the ego pursues its |
| Tx:11.45 | this as reinforcement. The only place where you can cancel | out all reinforcement is in yourself. For you are always the first |
| Tx:11.58 | In perfect peace He waits for you at His Father's altar, holding | out the Father's love to you in the quiet light of the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:11.65 | For you will believe in what you manifest, and as you look | out, so will you see in. Two ways of looking at the world are in your |
| Tx:11.67 | of mind. Perception is projection, and you look in before you look | out. As you look in you choose the guide for seeing, and then you |
| Tx:11.67 | As you look in you choose the guide for seeing, and then you look | out and behold his witnesses. This is why you find what you seek. |
| Tx:11.76 | deathless in yourself, and you will see only the eternal as you look | out upon a world that cannot die. |
| Tx:11.87 | of you, had you not believed that it was the Father Who drove him | out of paradise. For in that belief, the knowledge of the Father was |
| Tx:11.94 | the condition of his Being, which is his perfect blamelessness. | Out of love he was created, and in love he abides. Goodness and mercy |
| Tx:12.13 | then, seems to be attacking your fortress, for you would shut | out God, and He does not will to be excluded. |
| Tx:12.23 | here and bury you here, leaving you no inheritance except the dust | out of which it thinks you were made. As long as it is reasonably |
| Tx:12.27 | perceiving them as they are. And you will receive messages from them | out of your own past because, by making it real in the present, you |
| Tx:12.49 | his past is yours, you share in this release. Let no dark cloud | out of your past obscure him from you, for truth lies only in the |
| Tx:12.52 | Now is the time of salvation, for now is the release from time. Reach | out to all your brothers and touch them with the touch of Christ. In |
| Tx:12.55 | join with theirs in power so compelling that it will draw the others | out of darkness as you look on them. |
| Tx:12.56 | unto Christ is following the laws of love of your free will and | out of quiet recognition of the truth in them. The attraction of |
| Tx:12.56 | witnesses to the love you gave them, and it is they who hold it | out to you. In sleep you are alone, and your awareness is narrowed to |
| Tx:12.63 | see it, for whenever judgment enters, reality has slipped away. The | out of mind is out of sight because what is denied is there but is |
| Tx:12.63 | judgment enters, reality has slipped away. The out of mind is | out of sight because what is denied is there but is not recognized. |
| Tx:12.63 | for you to leave the past behind and enter into the world He holds | out to you in love. |
| Tx:12.64 | loves what he loves not and following not the road that love points | out. Love leads so gladly! And as you follow Him, you will rejoice |
| Tx:13.30 | you love them all and equally. Love is not special. If you single | out part of the Sonship for your love, you are imposing guilt on all |
| Tx:13.42 | God would share with you is known. Yet His channels of reaching | out cannot be wholly closed and separated from Him. Peace will be |
| Tx:13.56 | forms and feelings and actions and reactions that you have woven | out of it. Nothing is so alien to you as the simple truth, and |
| Tx:13.73 | Every decision is made for the whole Sonship, directed in and | out and influencing a constellation larger than anything you ever |
| Tx:13.79 | fear. Be quiet in your faith in Him Who loves you and would lead you | out of insanity. Madness may be your choice, but not your reality. |
| Tx:13.90 | that God is right and you are wrong about yourself. He created you | out of Himself but still within Him. He knows what you are. Remember |
| Tx:13.90 | Love. Fail not in your function of loving in a loveless place made | out of darkness and deceit, for thus are darkness and deceit undone. |
| Tx:14.15 | that makes it holy. Come gladly to the holy circle, and look | out in peace on all who think they are outside. Cast no one out, for |
| Tx:14.15 | and look out in peace on all who think they are outside. Cast no one | out, for this is what he seeks, along with you. Come, let us join him |
| Tx:14.17 | over it carefully, and you who made these guardians of illusion | out of nothing are now afraid of them. |
| Tx:14.22 | not attempt to communicate the meaningless. But He will separate | out all that has meaning, dropping off the rest and offering your |
| Tx:14.25 | The search for truth is but the honest searching | out of everything that interferes with truth. Truth is. It can be |
| Tx:14.36 | one link which joins them all together, holding them in the oneness | out of which creation happens. |
| Tx:14.43 | and the message which shines forth from what the mirror holds | out for everyone to see no one can fail to understand. It is the |
| Tx:14.46 | nearer or farther. But eternity itself is beyond all time. Reach | out of time and touch it, with the help of its reflection in you. And |
| Tx:14.49 | of Heaven last but a moment and grow dim as darkness blots them | out. Where there was light, darkness removes it in an instant, and |
| Tx:15.3 | be the conviction that it can pursue you beyond the grave. And | out of its unwillingness for you to find peace even in the death it |
| Tx:15.9 | clear and separated from the past, without its shadow reaching | out into the future. Each instant is a clean, untarnished birth, in |
| Tx:15.10 | and think of it as all there is of time. Nothing can reach you here | out of the past, and it is here that you are completely absolved, |
| Tx:15.18 | be. All that you have, you have forever. The blessed instant reaches | out to encompass time, as God extends Himself to encompass you. You |
| Tx:15.21 | Start now to practice your little part in separating | out the holy instant. You will receive very specific instructions as |
| Tx:15.21 | very specific instructions as you go along. To learn to separate | out this single second and begin to experience it as timeless, is to |
| Tx:15.22 | it. Everything in this world is little because it is a world made | out of littleness in the strange belief that littleness can content |
| Tx:15.46 | relationships and thus make them unreal. If you seek to separate | out certain aspects of the totality and look to them to meet your |
| Tx:15.53 | The holy instant parallels His knowing by bringing all perception | out of the past, thus removing the frame of reference you have built |
| Tx:15.55 | you can judge the Self of God? God has created it beyond judgment | out of His need to extend His Love. With love in you, you have no |
| Tx:15.68 | on an endless, unrewarding chain of special relationships, forged | out of anger and dedicated to but one insane belief—that the more |
| Tx:15.69 | make of them, you do not know, but you will become willing to find | out if you are willing, first, to perceive what you have made of them. |
| Tx:15.104 | seems fearful, for you endowed it with fear and tried to cast it | out though it was part of you. Who can perceive part of himself as |
| Tx:15.104 | the perceived conflict of Heaven and hell in him by casting Heaven | out and giving it the attributes of hell without experiencing himself |
| Tx:16.2 | to certain types of problems and in certain people. These it selects | out and joins with. And it never joins except to strengthen itself. |
| Tx:16.30 | will not offset it but will merely drive it underground and | out of sight. It is essential to bring it into sight and to make no |
| Tx:16.31 | The symbols of hate against the symbols of love play | out a conflict which does not exist. For symbols stand for something |
| Tx:16.37 | Heaven waits silently, and your creations are holding | out their hands to help you cross and welcome them. For it is they |
| Tx:16.51 | lies only in the terrible attraction of guilt, which the ego holds | out to those who place their faith in littleness. The conviction of |
| Tx:16.52 | God must die so you can live. And it is this theme which is acted | out in the special relationship. Through the death of your self, you |
| Tx:16.64 | On this side, everything you see is grossly distorted and completely | out of perspective. What is little and insignificant is magnified, |
| Tx:16.69 | by His perfect faith, and it is His faith you share with Him there. | Out of your recognition of your unwillingness for your release, His |
| Tx:16.72 | it brings to the special relationships it chooses in which to act | out its hate are fantasies of your destruction. For the ego holds the |
| Tx:16.73 | not contain the dream of retribution for the past. Would you act | out the dream or let it go? |
| Tx:16.74 | In the special relationship, it does not seem to be an acting | out of vengeance which you seek. And even when the hatred and the |
| Tx:16.74 | to reach awareness is that the special relationship is the acting | out of vengeance on yourself. But what else could it be? In seeking |
| Tx:17.13 | Meet His patience with your impatience at delay in meeting Him. Go | out in gladness to meet with your Redeemer and walk with him in trust |
| Tx:17.13 | in gladness to meet with your Redeemer and walk with him in trust | out of this world and into the real world of beauty and forgiveness. |
| Tx:17.19 | the one with whom the union was sought. For it was formed to get him | out of it and join with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” How can |
| Tx:17.39 | each framed perfectly for what they represent. One is framed to be | out of focus and not seen. The other is framed for perfect clarity. |
| Tx:17.39 | of darkness and of death grows less convincing as you search it | out amid its wrappings. As each senseless stone which seems to shine |
| Tx:17.45 | The reason is quite clear. For the relationship as it is, is | out of line with its own goal and clearly unsuited to the purpose |
| Tx:17.46 | goal. Until this happy solution is seen and accepted as the only way | out of the conflict, the relationship seems to be severely strained. |
| Tx:17.60 | this approach has brought you closer to the Holy Spirit's sorting | out of truth and falsity. The true becomes what can be used to meet |
| Tx:18.3 | many forms, and each seems to require a different form of acting | out for satisfaction. While this appears to introduce quite variable |
| Tx:18.3 | for either acceptance or rejection of suitability for acting | out a special form of fear. |
| Tx:18.5 | you the enormity of the original error, which seemed to cast you | out of Heaven, to shatter knowledge into meaningless bits of |
| Tx:18.7 | The truth will save you. It has not left you to go | out into the mad world and so depart from you. Inward is sanity; |
| Tx:18.12 | peace in those who heard? Return with me to Heaven, walking together | out of this world and through another to the loveliness and joy the |
| Tx:18.13 | world contains. It is the only one which has no limits and reaches | out to every broken fragment of the Sonship with healing and uniting |
| Tx:18.16 | disturbing. You recognize that what you see on waking is blotted | out in dreams. Yet on awakening, you do not expect it to be gone. In |
| Tx:18.17 | a world which you prefer is terrifying. Your attempts to blot | out reality are very fearful, but this you are not willing to accept. |
| Tx:18.18 | to make the dream. You do not realize that you are making them act | out for you, for if you did, the guilt would not be theirs, and the |
| Tx:18.24 | The light is in you. Darkness can cover it but cannot put it | out. |
| Tx:18.51 | attack, but it can make fantasies and direct the body to act them | out. Yet it is never what the body does that seems to satisfy. Unless |
| Tx:18.51 | to satisfy. Unless the mind believes the body is actually acting | out its fantasies, it will attack the body by increasing the |
| Tx:18.54 | and blaming it for what you wished it to do. It is impossible to act | out fantasies. For it is still the fantasies you want, and they have |
| Tx:18.55 | in a separate prison, removed and unreachable, incapable of reaching | out as being reached. You hate this prison you have made and would |
| Tx:18.56 | which reach each other.] Mind reaches to itself. It does not go | out. Within itself it has no limits, and there is nothing outside it. |
| Tx:18.58 | You can stretch | out your hand and reach to Heaven. You whose hands are joined have |
| Tx:18.62 | yourself in peace. Not through destruction, not through a “breaking | out,” but merely by a quiet “melting in.” For peace will join you |
| Tx:18.72 | can you join Him there. Limits on love will always seem to shut Him | out and to keep you apart from Him. The body is a tiny fence around a |
| Tx:18.79 | And under its beneficence, your little garden will expand and reach | out to everyone who thirsts for living water but has grown too weary |
| Tx:18.80 | Go | out and find them, for they bring your Self with them. And lead them |
| Tx:18.91 | return to you, assuring you that it is all there. Figures stand | out and move about, actions seem real, and forms appear and shift |
| Tx:19.6 | of it is sought through the body, thought of as a means for seeking | out reality through attack, while the other part would heal and |
| Tx:19.25 | Fear can become so acute that the sin is denied the acting | out, but while the guilt remains attractive the mind will suffer and |
| Tx:19.25 | it. And only an avenger with a mind unlike your own could stamp it | out through fear. |
| Tx:19.40 | its home, its tranquil dwelling-place from which it gently reaches | out but never leaving you. If you would make it homeless, how can it |
| Tx:19.46 | little insane wish to get rid of Him Who you invited in and push Him | out must produce conflict. As you look upon the world, this little |
| Tx:19.50 | and gentleness. The messengers of fear are harshly ordered to seek | out guilt and cherish every scrap of evil and of sin which they can |
| Tx:19.63 | Peace is extended from you only to the eternal, and it reaches | out from the eternal in you. It flows across all else. The second |
| Tx:19.74 | this is not so, but as the “enemy” of peace, it urges you to send | out all your messages of hate and free yourself. And to convince you |
| Tx:19.77 | no hold at all except on those who are attracted to it and seek it | out. And so it is with death. Made by the ego, its dark shadow falls |
| Tx:19.87 | it holds in perfect safety every miracle you will perform, held | out to you. The miracle of life is ageless, born in time but |
| Tx:19.92 | made with the ego to keep what lies beyond the veil forever blotted | out and unremembered. Here is your promise never to allow union to |
| Tx:19.92 | unremembered. Here is your promise never to allow union to call you | out of separation; the great amnesia in which the memory of God seems |
| Tx:19.103 | sin upon Him to hide His loveliness. Yet still He holds forgiveness | out to you to share His holiness. This “enemy,” this “stranger” still |
| Tx:20.6 | given and received. For bodies can neither offer nor accept; hold | out nor take. Only the mind can value, and only the mind decides on |
| Tx:20.19 | to a world made fearful by their adjustments. And they look | out in sorrow from what is sad within and see the sadness there. |
| Tx:20.24 | Son of God and give him thanks for all the happiness which he held | out to you? Did you recognize each other as the eternal gift of God |
| Tx:20.65 | about him will seem real there. You closed your eyes to shut him | out. Such was your purpose, and while this purpose seems to have any |
| Tx:20.74 | do you want the purpose which they serve? This world seems to hold | out many purposes, each different and with different values. Yet they |
| Tx:20.76 | And meaning always looks within to find itself and then looks | out. All meaning that you give the world outside must thus reflect |
| Tx:21.38 | The intention is in the mind, which tries to use the body to carry | out the means for sin in which the mind believes. Thus is the joining |
| Tx:21.47 | has come to earth at last, from which the ego's rule has kept it | out so long. Heaven has come because it found a home in your |
| Tx:21.49 | Perception selects and makes the world you see. It literally picks it | out as the mind directs. The laws of size and shape and brightness |
| Tx:21.49 | prefer to overlook. The still small Voice for God is not drowned | out by all the ego's raucous screams and senseless ravings to those |
| Tx:21.56 | need of it. Knowledge does not depend on it, and madness keeps it | out. |
| Tx:21.62 | Madness is an attack on reason that drives it | out of mind and takes its place. Reason does not attack but takes the |
| Tx:21.66 | from reason. What madness would conceal, the Holy Spirit still holds | out for everyone to look upon with gladness. |
| Tx:21.68 | The Son of God is always blessed as one. And as his gratitude goes | out to you who blessed him, reason will tell you that it cannot be |
| Tx:21.72 | treacherous because they have no need to dream of power and to act | out their dream. How would an army act in dreams? Any way at all. It |
| Tx:21.88 | no one fails to ask for his desire of something he believes holds | out some promise of the power of giving it. He may be wrong in what |
| Tx:22.4 | It must extend, as you extended when you joined. It must reach | out beyond itself, as you reached out beyond the body to let |
| Tx:22.4 | when you joined. It must reach out beyond itself, as you reached | out beyond the body to let yourselves be joined. And now the sameness |
| Tx:22.17 | is possible in the dark world of misery is to select some aspects | out of it, see them as different, and define the difference as joy. |
| Tx:22.19 | is faith in sin if the belief excludes one living thing and holds it | out apart from its forgiveness. |
| Tx:22.44 | Standing before the veil, it still seems difficult. But hold | out your joined hands and touch this heavy-seeming block, and you |
| Tx:22.46 | be defended against and sacrificed. For sin is carved into a block | out of your peace and laid between you and its return. Yet how can |
| Tx:22.47 | you would defend against. Yet it remains impossible to keep love | out. God rests with you in quiet, undefended and wholly undefending, |
| Tx:22.48 | its feeble squeaks that tell of its omnipotence and would drown | out the hymn of praise to its Creator which every heart throughout |
| Tx:23.12 | is insane, and they remain part of what made them. Madness holds | out no menace to reality and has no influence upon it. Illusions |
| Tx:23.15 | be remembered. Yet no illusion can invade His home and drive Him | out of what He loves forever. And what He loves must be forever quiet |
| Tx:23.19 | never understood. Chaotic laws are hardly meaningful and therefore | out of reason's sphere. Yet they appear to constitute an obstacle to |
| Tx:23.44 | It can be kept shining before your vision, forever clear and never | out of sight if you defend it not. |
| Tx:24.14 | impossible even to imagine without this base. For sin arose from it | out of nothingness; an evil flower with no roots at all. Here is the |
| Tx:24.18 | Here stands your brother with the key to Heaven in his hand held | out to you. Let not the dream of specialness remain between you. What |
| Tx:24.33 | from hell. Look on the print of nails upon his hands that he holds | out for your forgiveness. God asks your mercy on His Son and on |
| Tx:24.41 | he picked a thread from here, a scrap from there, and wove a picture | out of nothing. For the parts do not belong together, and the whole |
| Tx:24.43 | gleams that spark an instant from the fireflies of sin and then go | out, to lead the other to a nameless precipice and hurl him over it. |
| Tx:24.46 | the sound of battle and of death. He reaches through them, holding | out His hand that everyone may bless all living things and see their |
| Tx:24.61 | wills is possible, and there is no alternative for Him to see. | Out of His lack of conflict comes your peace. And from His purpose |
| Tx:24.66 | and rests in light as safely as itself. Nor will that light go | out when it is gone. Its holy purpose gave it immortality, setting |
| Tx:25.27 | unchanged beyond the pitiful attempts of specialness to put it | out of mind where it must be and light the body up instead of it. The |
| Tx:25.27 | For he has come with Heaven's Help within him ready to lead him | out of darkness into light at any time. |
| Tx:25.42 | you give to him is given you, and you will walk the way you pointed | out to him because it is your judgment on yourself. |
| Tx:25.72 | cannot accept it for yourself. It is His special function to hold | out to you the gifts the innocent deserve. And every one that you |
| Tx:25.79 | given to God's Son are kept for him and offered anyone who but holds | out his hand in willingness they be received. Nor is the treasure |
| Tx:25.79 | they be received. Nor is the treasure less as it is given | out. Each gift [received] but adds to the supply. For God is fair. He |
| Tx:26.2 | it looks as if what is inside can never reach without, and what is | out can never reach and join with what is locked away within the |
| Tx:26.7 | no more be sacrificed by you than can the light in you be blotted | out because he sees it not. You who would make a sacrifice of life |
| Tx:26.11 | a sacrifice that you might gain. And when the situation is worked | out so no one loses, is the problem gone, because it was an error in |
| Tx:26.20 | have meaning still, and yet it can be seen that they are temporary, | out of place, and every choice has been already made. |
| Tx:26.37 | a change in where he really is? The unforgiven is a voice that calls | out from a past forever more gone by. And everything which points to |
| Tx:26.49 | seem to be apart from them. Ideas are of the mind. What is projected | out and seems to be external to the mind is not outside at all but an |
| Tx:26.70 | still obscured that is the source of fear. Salvation would wipe | out the space you see between you still and let you instantly become |
| Tx:26.72 | fear have overlooked but which is all there is to time. The working | out of all correction takes no time at all. |
| Tx:26.73 | Yet the acceptance of the working | out can seem to take forever. The change of purpose the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:27.30 | meaningless. He represents a double thought, where half is canceled | out by the remaining half. Yet even this is quickly contradicted by |
| Tx:27.30 | half. Yet even this is quickly contradicted by the half it canceled | out, and so they both are gone. And now he stands for nothing. |
| Tx:27.31 | with power or to see as weak. The picture has been wholly canceled | out because it symbolized a contradiction which canceled out the |
| Tx:27.31 | canceled out because it symbolized a contradiction which canceled | out the thought it represents. And thus the picture has no cause at |
| Tx:27.34 | other half of what it represents remains unknown but is not canceled | out. And thus is God left free to take the final step Himself. [For |
| Tx:27.80 | are you not the dreamer but the dream. And so you wander idly in and | out of places and events which it contrives. That this is all the |

| W1:23.1 | The idea for today contains the only way | out of fear that will ever succeed. Nothing else will work; |
| W1:24.8 | in connection with some of your goals however the situation turns | out. |
| W1:25.4 | Before you can make any sense | out of the exercises for today, one more thought is necessary. At the |

| W1:41.2 | you is everything that is perfect, ready to radiate through you and | out into the whole world. It will cure all sorrow and pain and fear |

| W1:53.4 | no grounds for trust. Nothing in madness is dependable. It holds | out no safety and no hope. But such a world is not real. I have given |
| W1:55.5 | illusions. I am willing to follow the Guide God has given me to find | out what my own best interests are, recognizing that I cannot |

| W1:66.3 | to its attacks on truth. We will merely be glad that we can find | out what truth is. |
| W1:68.5 | is simply a question of motivation. Today we will try to find | out how you would feel without them. If you succeed even by ever so |
| W1:69.6 | the light in you today—now. Determine to go past the clouds. Reach | out and touch them in your mind; brush them aside with your hand; |
| W1:72.15 | feel your confidence wane and your hope of success flicker and go | out, repeat your question and your request, remembering that you are |
| W1:73.1 | you share with God. This is not the same as the ego's idle wishes, | out of which darkness and nothingness arise. The will you share with |
| W1:73.5 | can be found without. Grievances darken your mind, and you look | out on a darkened world. Forgiveness lifts the darkness, reasserts |
| W1:74.9 | area which seems particularly difficult to resolve, single it | out for special consideration. Think about it briefly but very |
| W1:78.4 | our grievances. So is the seeing of the world reversed, as we look | out toward truth, away from fear. |
| W1:80.5 | that your problems have been solved. Recognize that you are | out of conflict, free, and at peace. Above all, remember that you |
| W1:90.5 | problem comes first, and time must elapse before it can be worked | out. I do not see the problem and the answer as simultaneous in their |

| W1:97.7 | the tiny gleam a firefly makes an uncertain moment, and goes | out. Yet will the steady brilliance of this light remain, and leads |
| W1:97.7 | Yet will the steady brilliance of this light remain, and leads you | out of darkness, nor will you be able to forget the way again. |
| W1:99.11 | Practice His thought today, and let His Light seek | out and lighten up all darkened spots and shine through them to join |
| W1:100.2 | His Will? The part that He has saved for you to take in working | out His plan is given you that you might be restored to what He |
| W1:101.2 | they ask for, for they know it waits for them and it will seek them | out and find them somewhere, sometime, in some form which evens the |
| W1:101.4 | Who would seek | out such savage punishment? Who would not flee salvation and attempt |
| W1:101.4 | accept Its offering? If sin is real, its offering is death and meted | out in cruel form to match the vicious wishes in which sin is born. |
| W1:106.3 | do not speak of Him Who holds your happiness within His hand, held | out to you in welcome and in love. Hear only Him today, and do not |
| W1:108.10 | close your eyes, and for five minutes think of what you would hold | out to everyone to have it yours. You might, for instance, say: |
| W1:122.11 | into happiness as you begin these practice periods, for they hold | out the sure rewards of questions answered, and what your acceptance |
| W1:122.11 | peace forgiveness offers and the joy the lifting of the veil holds | out to you. |
| W1:124.10 | own transfiguration in the glass this holy half an hour will hold | out to you to look upon yourself. When you are ready, you will find |
| W1:126.3 | to you directly. You give charity to one unworthy merely to point | out that you are better, on a higher plane than he whom you forgive. |
| W1:126.3 | equality with you. He has no claim on your forgiveness. It holds | out a gift to him but hardly to yourself. |
| W1:131.16 | Put | out your hand and see how easily the door swings open with your one |
| W1:132.4 | give it meaning. And what you behold upon it are your wishes, acted | out so you can look on them and think them real. |
| W1:132.19 | across the world as well as to the ones you see near by as you send | out these thoughts to bless the world. But you will sense your own |
| W1:135.12 | A healed mind does not plan. It carries | out the plans which it receives through listening to Wisdom that is |
| W1:137.5 | Healing might thus be called a counter-dream which cancels | out the dream of sickness in the name of truth but not in truth |
| W1:153.18 | Think you He will not make this possible for you who chose to carry | out His plan for the salvation of the world and yours? |
| W1:155.7 | Their suffering is but illusion. Yet they need a guide to lead them | out of it, for they mistake illusion for the truth. |
| W1:155.11 | forth toward this as we progress along the way that truth points | out to us. This is our final journey, which we make for everyone. We |

| W1:159.10 | Behold the store of miracles set | out for you to give. Are you not worth the gift when God appointed it |
| W1:160.6 | return impossible. His way is lost except a miracle will search him | out and show him that he is no stranger now. The miracle will come. |
| W1:161.5 | that we feel limits our freedom, makes us suffer, and at last puts | out our life. Yet bodies are but symbols of a concrete form of fear. |

| W1:183.2 | the ground on which you stand and sing to you as they spread | out their wings to keep you safe and shelter you from every worldly |

| W1:189.4 | innocence they see surrounding them, the joy with which they look | out from the endless wells of joy within. What they have felt in them |
| W1:189.5 | bony fingers. If you feel the Love of God within you, you look | out upon a world of mercy and of love. |
| W1:190.2 | by an eternal Love which could not leave the Son whom It created | out of love. |
| W1:191.5 | is the gift he gives to everyone in gratitude to Him Who pointed | out the way to happiness that changed his whole perception of the |
| W1:193.4 | lesson has been changed to guiltlessness; the hatred has been rooted | out by love. |
| W1:197.5 | His gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, forever giving | out, extending love, and adding to your never-ending joy, while you |
| W1:198.4 | Forgiveness is the only road that leads | out of disaster, past all suffering, and finally away from death. How |
| W1:200.2 | can only hurt, of making peace of chaos, joy of pain, and Heaven | out of hell. Attempt no more to win through losing, nor to die to |
| W2:241.1 | there is today! It is a time of special celebration. For today holds | out the instant to the darkened world where its release is set. The |

| W2:299.2 | mine to suffer from attack. Illusions can obscure it but cannot put | out its radiance nor dim its light. It stands forever perfect and |
| W2:315.1 | And everyone who finds the way to God becomes my savior, pointing | out the way to me and giving me his certainty that what he learned is |
| W2:327.2 | Your promises will never fail in my experience if I but test them | out. Let me attempt therefore to try them and to judge them not. Your |
| W2:330.1 | of pain? Why should we teach them they are powerless when God holds | out His power and His love and bids them take what is already theirs? |
| W2:332.2 | it is given us. And we would not remain as prisoners while You hold | out our freedom unto us. |
| W2:334.1 | must be vain and dreams are gone, even while they are woven | out of thoughts that rest on false perception. Let me not accept such |
| W2:355.1 | in exile. I am sure my treasure waits for me, and I need but reach | out my hand to find it. Even now my fingers touch it. It is very |
| W2:357.1 | the prison house in which I think I live. Your holy Son is pointed | out to me, first in my brother, then in me. Your Voice instructs me |
| W2:FL.2 | the way to go. Let us together follow in this way that truth points | out to us. And let us be the leaders of our many brothers who are |
| M:I.5 | are they? How are they chosen? What do they do? How can they work | out their own salvation and the salvation of the world? This manual |
| M:1.4 | Will of God? But time, with its illusions of change and death, wears | out the world and all things in it. Yet time has an ending, and it is |
| M:2.4 | he now relives. So has the teacher, too, made an inevitable choice | out of an ancient past. God's Will in everything but seems to take |
| M:4.1 | is, of course, only temporary—set in time as a means of leading | out of time. These special gifts, born in the holy relationship |
| M:4.7 | this distress entirely. There is, however, no point in sorting | out the valuable from the valueless unless the next obvious step is |
| M:4.8 | at the point in his progress at which he sees in it his whole way | out. “Give up what you do not want and keep what you do.” How simple |
| M:4.19 | The teacher of God is generous | out of self-interest. This does not refer, however, to the self the |
| M:5.10 | illusions can have no effect. The truth in their minds reaches | out to the truth in the minds of their brothers, so that illusions |
| M:8.2 | recognized as being untrue. The mind therefore seeks to make it true | out of its intensity of desire to have it for itself. Illusions are |
| M:8.4 | It is in the sorting | out and categorizing activities of the mind that errors in perception |
| M:8.6 | the understanding that only two categories are meaningful in sorting | out the messages the mind receives from what appears to be the |
| M:11.3 | paradoxical situation—one without meaning and devoid of sense, yet | out of which no way seems possible—God has sent His Judgment to |
| M:13.8 | contains it not, but learn this course and it is yours. God holds | out His Word to you, for He has need of teachers. What other way is |
| M:15.3 | in this, and you will go beyond belief to certainty. One instant | out of time can bring time's end. Judge not, for you but judge |
| M:15.4 | judgment waits for you to set you free. What can the world hold | out to you, regardless of your judgments on its gifts, that you would |

| M:18.3 | Anger but screeches, “Guilt is real.” Reality is blotted | out as this insane belief is taken as replacement for God's Word. The |
| M:19.1 | the interpretations to which injustice gives rise and cancels them | out. Neither justice nor injustice exists in Heaven, for error is |
| M:20.3 | How is this quiet found? No one can fail to find it who but seeks | out its conditions. God's peace can never come where anger is, for |
| M:20.3 | what but peace is opposite to war? Here the initial contrast stands | out clear and apparent. Yet when peace is found, the war is |
| M:22.2 | given him long before he has learned all that his acceptance holds | out to him. It is only the end that is certain. Anywhere along the |
| M:24.2 | If he is laying the groundwork for a future life, he can still work | out his salvation only now. To some there may be comfort in the |
| M:25.2 | Voice is available but for the hearing. These limits are placed | out of fear, for without them the walls that surround all the |
| M:27.3 | Death is the symbol of the fear of God. His love is blotted | out in the idea, which holds it from awareness like a shield held to |

| Tx:11.51 | appraisal of what you have taught yourselves and of the learning | outcomes which have resulted. Under the proper learning conditions, |
| Tx:20.76 | happy dreams; your wild hallucinations that show you all the fearful | outcomes of imagined sin into the calm and reassuring sights with |
| Tx:24.4 | Beliefs will never openly attack each other, because conflicting | outcomes are impossible. But an unrecognized belief is a decision to |

| Tx:18.14 | to attack you and change it into a tribute to your ego, which was | outraged by the “attack.” This would not be your wish unless you saw |
| W1:186.3 | shrink from our assignment on the specious grounds that modesty is | outraged. It is pride that would deny the call of God Himself. |
outrageous (4) | ||
| Tx:6.13 | I elected both for your sake and mine to demonstrate that the most | outrageous assault as judged by the ego did not matter. As the world |

outside (161) | ||
| Tx:2.17 | from others to you. Peace is an attribute in you. You cannot find it | outside. All mental illness is some form of external searching. |
| Tx:2.57 | a compromise approach to mind and body, in which something from the | outside is temporarily given healing belief. |
| Tx:4.41 | not understandable to the ego, which interprets it as if something | outside is inside, and this does not mean anything. The word “within” |
| Tx:6.46 | without it. This enables the ego to regard itself as separate and | outside its maker, thus speaking for the part of your mind that |
| Tx:6.46 | for the part of your mind that believes you are separate and | outside the Mind of God. The ego, then, raised the first question |
| Tx:6.94 | is without illusions and therefore within the Kingdom. Everything | outside the Kingdom is illusion, but you must learn to accept truth, |
| Tx:6.94 | the Kingdom of God in your minds and thus placed part of your mind | outside it. What you have made has thus divided your will and given |
| Tx:7.14 | Outside the Kingdom, the law which prevails inside it is adapted to | |
| Tx:7.14 | to “what you project you believe.” This is its teaching form, since | outside the Kingdom teaching is mandatory, because learning is |
| Tx:9.59 | you believe that anything which happens to you is caused by factors | outside yourself. You must learn that time is solely at your |
| Tx:10.13 | The projection of the ego makes it appear as if God's Will is | outside yourself and therefore not yours. In this interpretation, it |
| Tx:11.29 | “arrangement” with the world. He always perceives this world as | outside himself, for this is crucial to his adjustment. He does not |
| Tx:11.29 | He does not realize that he makes this world, for there is no world | outside of him. |
| Tx:11.30 | projects the split, not the reality. Everything you perceive as the | outside world is merely your attempt to maintain your ego |
| Tx:11.31 | is why you must realize that your hatred is in your mind and not | outside it before you can get rid of it and why you must get rid of |
| Tx:11.34 | of its maker along with his real salvation. Do not believe it is | outside of yourself, for only by recognizing where it is will you |
| Tx:11.40 | your home whether you know where it is or not. If you believe it is | outside yourself, the search will be futile, for you will be seeking |
| Tx:11.68 | because you made them different. The mind then sees a divided world | outside itself but not within. This gives it an illusion of integrity |
| Tx:12.71 | outer worlds. However holy his perception may become, no world | outside himself holds his inheritance. Within himself he has no |
| Tx:13.8 | all unite in the eternity of God the Father. The holy light you saw | outside yourself in every miracle you offered to your brothers will |
| Tx:13.10 | God will open them. For never would He leave His own beloved Son | outside them and beyond Himself. |
| Tx:13.22 | loving is. Their main concern is to perceive the source of guilt | outside themselves, beyond their own control. |
| Tx:13.81 | Whose equal love is given equally to all alike! He leaves you no one | outside yourself, alone without you. And so He gives you what is |
| Tx:14.12 | created as His Son. Joy is its unifying attribute, with no one left | outside to suffer guilt alone. The power of God draws everyone to its |
| Tx:14.13 | him. Believe not that you cannot teach His perfect peace. Stand not | outside but join with me within. Fail not the only purpose to which |
| Tx:14.15 | one you see you place within the holy circle of Atonement or leave | outside, judging him fit for crucifixion or for redemption. If you |
| Tx:14.15 | to the holy circle, and look out in peace on all who think they are | outside. Cast no one out, for this is what he seeks, along with you. |
| Tx:15.68 | dedicated to but one insane belief—that the more anger you invest | outside yourself, the safer you become. |
| Tx:15.99 | You think that everyone | outside yourself demands your sacrifice, but you do not see that only |
| Tx:15.100 | easy to understand. Do not try to project it from you and see it | outside yourself. In you are both the question and the answer—the |
| Tx:15.102 | The sign of Christmas is a star, a light in darkness. See it not | outside yourself but shining in the Heaven within and accept it as |
| Tx:15.106 | still recognize it. The meaning of love lies in what you have cast | outside yourself, and it has no meaning at all apart from you. It is |
| Tx:16.23 | without conviction, and it is equally impossible that conviction be | outside of you. You could never have taught freedom unless you did |
| Tx:16.24 | can it be that has not learned it? It must be this that is really | outside yourself, not by your own projection, but in truth. And it is |
| Tx:16.26 | who hold Him and whom He holds are the universe, all else must be | outside, where nothing is. You have taught this, and from far off in |
| Tx:16.26 | in what you taught. For what you taught is true. Alone you stand | outside your teaching and apart from it. But with them you must learn |
| Tx:16.27 | in Him that is not perfect and eternal. All this is you, and nothing | outside of this is you. |
| Tx:16.32 | the storm into the sunlight. On the contrary, it emphasizes guilt | outside the haven by attempting to build barricades against it and |
| Tx:16.35 | to escape from one illusion into another must fail. If you seek love | outside yourself, you can be certain that you perceive hatred within |
| Tx:16.62 | for the separate union excludes the universe. Far more is left | outside than would be taken in. For God is left without and nothing |
| Tx:16.68 | be the understanding of where Heaven is. From here it seems to be | outside and across the bridge. Yet as you cross to join it, it will |
| Tx:17.6 | Be willing, then, to give all you have held | outside the truth to Him who knows the truth and in Whom all is |
| Tx:17.55 | to make you suffer, but which makes Heaven glad. If Heaven were | outside you, you could not share in its gladness. Yet because it is |
| Tx:17.71 | aspect and complete in every part. You can leave nothing of yourself | outside it and keep the situation holy. For it shares the purpose of |
| Tx:18.7 | the mad world and so depart from you. Inward is sanity; insanity is | outside you. You but believe it is the other way; that truth is |
| Tx:18.7 | is outside you. You but believe it is the other way; that truth is | outside and error and guilt within. Your little senseless |
| Tx:18.8 | wind, dipping and turning till they disappear from sight, far, far | outside you. And turn you to the stately calm within, where in holy |
| Tx:18.8 | takes you gently by the hand and retraces with you your mad journey | outside yourself, leading you gently back to the truth and safety |
| Tx:18.8 | insane projections and your wild substitutions which you have placed | outside you to the truth. Thus He reverses the course of insanity and |
| Tx:18.9 | has set the course inward to the truth you share. In the mad world | outside you, nothing can be shared but only substituted, and sharing |
| Tx:18.18 | Yet here is a world, clearly within your mind, that seems to be | outside. You do not respond to it as though you made it, nor do you |
| Tx:18.49 | There is nothing | outside you. That is what you must ultimately learn, for it is [in |
| Tx:18.49 | Oneness and the knowledge that there is nothing else; nothing | outside this Oneness and nothing else within. |
| Tx:18.50 | The belief that you could give and get something else, something | outside yourself, has cost you the awareness of Heaven and the loss |
| Tx:18.56 | not go out. Within itself it has no limits, and there is nothing | outside it. [It encompasses everything.] It encompasses you entirely; |
| Tx:18.57 | The body is | outside you, and but seems to surround you, shutting you off from |
| Tx:18.58 | whose hands are joined have begun to reach beyond the body, but not | outside yourselves, to reach your shared Identity together. Could |
| Tx:18.58 | yourselves, to reach your shared Identity together. Could this be | outside you? Where God is not? Is He a body, and did He create you as |
| Tx:18.71 | Everything you recognize you identify with externals, something | outside itself. You cannot even think of God without a body or some |
| Tx:18.81 | No part of love calls on the whole in vain. No Son of God remains | outside His Fatherhood. |
| Tx:18.87 | you, but only yours. You are severely tempted to abandon Him at the | outside ring of fear, but He would lead you safely through and far |
| Tx:18.93 | is the real world where guilt meets with forgiveness. Here the world | outside is seen anew, without the shadow of guilt upon it. Here are |
| Tx:19.37 | elsewhere—from your brothers and from various aspects of the world | outside. Yet peace will gently cover them, extending past completely |
| Tx:19.38 | Spirit remains unfinished. You can indeed be sure of nothing you see | outside you, but of this you can be sure: the Holy Spirit asks that |
| Tx:19.64 | all obstacles together, for we stand within the gates and not | outside. How easily the gates are opened from within to let peace |
| Tx:20.20 | by the ego, whose image it is and which it loves, and placed | outside you in the world. And to this world must you adjust, as long |
| Tx:20.20 | this world must you adjust, as long as you believe this picture is | outside and has you at its mercy. This world is merciless, and were |
| Tx:20.20 | and has you at its mercy. This world is merciless, and were it | outside you, you should indeed be fearful. Yet it was you who made it |
| Tx:20.22 | believes in sin, but the belief that made it as you see it is not | outside you. Seek not to make the Son of God adjust to his insanity. |
| Tx:20.34 | that you will rest without them? You could no more leave one of them | outside than I could leave you and forget part of myself. |
| Tx:20.37 | finds his function of restoring his Father's laws to what was held | outside them and finding what was lost. Only in time can anything be |
| Tx:20.75 | serve to meet the goal of madness. They are the means by which the | outside world, projected from within, adjusts to sin and seems to |
| Tx:20.76 | find itself and then looks out. All meaning that you give the world | outside must thus reflect the sight you saw within; or better, if you |
| Tx:21.1 | to you it is important. It is the witness to your state of mind, the | outside picture of an inward condition. As a man thinketh, so does he |
| Tx:21.10 | continuity. Nor is it possible to imagine that anything could be | outside, for there is nowhere that this light is not. |
| Tx:21.17 | It is impossible the Son of God be merely driven by events | outside of him. It is impossible that the happenings that come to him |
| Tx:21.17 | nor chance is possible within the universe as God created it, | outside of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided sin was your |
| Tx:22.33 | unable to look beyond the granite block of sin and stopping at the | outside form of nothing. To this distorted form of vision, the |
| Tx:22.33 | the outside form of nothing. To this distorted form of vision, the | outside of everything, the wall that stands between you and the |
| Tx:23.37 | There is no life | outside of Heaven. Where God created life, there life must be. In any |
| Tx:23.37 | in Heaven is impossible, and what is not in Heaven is not anywhere. | Outside of Heaven, only the conflict of illusions stands; senseless, |
| Tx:24.20 | and in peace so real and so encompassing that nothing stands | outside. Leave all illusions of yourself outside this place to which |
| Tx:24.20 | that nothing stands outside. Leave all illusions of yourself | outside this place to which you come in hope and honesty. |
| Tx:24.72 | this earth without a meeting-place and no encounter. One do you see | outside yourself, your own beloved son. The other rests within, His |
| Tx:25.1 | must be that you are not within a body. What is within you cannot be | outside. And it is certain that you cannot be apart from what is at |
| Tx:25.58 | he has a special part in everyone's escape. He can no more be left | outside without a special function in the hope of peace than could |
| Tx:26.3 | And for this little to belong to you are limits placed on everything | outside, just as they are on everything you think is yours. For |
| Tx:26.49 | What is projected out and seems to be external to the mind is not | outside at all but an effect of what is in and has not left its |
| Tx:26.59 | Sin is belief attack can be projected | outside the mind where the belief arose. Here is the firm conviction |
| Tx:27.26 | you will not even see. The focus of correction has been placed | outside yourself on one who cannot be a part of you while this |
| Tx:27.26 | brother, focus of your hate, unworthy to be part of you and thus | outside yourself—the other half which is denied. And only what is |
| Tx:27.38 | surety. For there the problem will be answered and resolved. | Outside there will be no solution, for there is no answer there that |
| Tx:27.38 | solution, for there is no answer there that could be found. Nowhere | outside a single simple question is ever asked. The world can only |
| Tx:27.62 | not himself. He is the victim of this “something else,” a thing | outside himself for which he has no reason to be held responsible. He |
| Tx:27.62 | bears the suffering. And he cannot escape because its source is seen | outside himself. |
| Tx:27.77 | the story of how it was made by other bodies, born into the world | outside the body, lives a little while and dies, to be united in the |
| Tx:27.83 | is being done to you. The guilt for what you thought is being placed | outside yourself and on a guilty world which dreams your dreams and |
| Tx:27.84 | is this petulant device to keep your innocence by pushing guilt | outside yourself but never letting go! It is not easy to perceive the |
| Tx:28.47 | between [ourselves] and what is seen as health? The good is seen | outside; the evil, in. And thus is sickness separating off the self |
| Tx:29.37 | Forgiving dreams are means to step aside from dreaming of a world | outside yourself. And leading finally beyond all dreams unto the |
| Tx:29.43 | Seek not | outside yourself. For it will fail, and you will weep each time an |
| Tx:29.43 | can substitute and find the happiness His answer brings. Seek not | outside yourself. For all your pain comes simply from a futile search |
| Tx:29.43 | fail. But it is given you to know the truth and not to seek for it | outside yourself. |
| Tx:29.44 | hope, some lingering illusion, or some dream that there is something | outside of himself that will bring happiness and peace to him. If |
| Tx:29.45 | the idol that he seeks is but his death. Its form appears to be | outside himself. Yet does he seek to kill God's Son within and prove |
| Tx:29.46 | suffered loss. And by this giving up is life renounced. Seek not | outside yourself. The search implies you are not whole within and |
| Tx:29.46 | within and fear to look upon your devastation and prefer to seek | outside yourself for what you are. |
| Tx:29.48 | and to maintain allegiance to the dream that you must find what is | outside yourself to be complete and happy. It is vain to worship |
| Tx:29.48 | lies in Him. No idol takes His place. Look not to idols. Do not seek | outside yourself. Let us forget the purpose of the world the past has |
| Tx:29.49 | decide what it is for. You try to see in it a place of idols found | outside yourself, with power to make complete what is within by |
| Tx:29.50 | And can a dream succeed in making real the pictures it projects | outside itself? Save time, my brothers; learn what time is for. And |
| Tx:29.51 | His Voice in chants of deep despair to idols of yourself. Seek not | outside your Father for your hope. For hope of happiness is not |
| Tx:29.54 | made tangible and given form and thus perceived as real and seen | outside the mind. Yet it is still a thought and cannot leave the mind |
| Tx:29.65 | his thoughts. Yet do they keep his thoughts alive and real but seen | outside himself, where they can turn against him for his treachery to |
| Tx:29.65 | are real. And so he makes of anything a toy to make his world remain | outside himself, and play that he is but a part of it. |
| Tx:30.45 | in an eternal sky. So high in Heaven is it set that those | outside of Heaven know not it is there. Yet still and white and |
| Tx:30.48 | apart from you and in a world which your reality knows nothing of? | Outside you there is no eternal sky, no changeless star, and no |
| Tx:30.58 | a place where hope of happiness can be fulfilled. And no one stands | outside this hope because the world has been united in belief the |
| Tx:30.60 | could create a perfect Son and share His Fatherhood with him. No one | outside of Heaven knows how this can be, for understanding this is |
| Tx:30.77 | the willingness to see him as he is. And do not keep a part of him | outside your willingness that he be healed. To heal is to make whole. |
| Tx:30.77 | And what is whole can have no missing parts that have been kept | outside. Forgiveness rests on recognizing this and being glad there |
| Tx:31.57 | The concept of the self embraces all you look upon, and nothing is | outside of this perception. If you can be hurt by anything, you see a |
| W1:4.3 | in the long-range purpose of learning to see the meaningless as | outside you and the meaningful within. It is also the beginning of |
| W1:10.3 | the idea that the thoughts of which you are aware are meaningless, | outside rather than within, and then stressed their past rather than |
| W1:30.2 | We are not attempting to get rid of what we do not like by seeing it | outside. Instead, we are trying to see in the world what is in our |
| W1:32.2 | today will again include two phases, one involving the world you see | outside you and the other the world you see in your mind. In today's |
| W1:32.3 | two or three times while looking around at the world you see as | outside yourself. Then close your eyes and look around your inner |
| W1:33.2 | of shifting. Merely glance casually around the world you perceive as | outside yourself, then close your eyes and survey your inner thoughts |
| W1:44.2 | you must recognize that light is within, not without. You do not see | outside yourself, nor is the equipment for seeing outside you. An |
| W1:44.2 | You do not see outside yourself, nor is the equipment for seeing | outside you. An essential part of this equipment is the light that |
| W1:69.4 | clouds. You can see only the clouds because you seem to be standing | outside the circle and quite apart from it. |
| W1:70.2 | “cost” of accepting today's idea is this: it means that nothing | outside yourself can save you; nothing outside yourself can give you |
| W1:70.2 | this: it means that nothing outside yourself can save you; nothing | outside yourself can give you peace. But it also means that nothing |
| W1:70.2 | outside yourself can give you peace. But it also means that nothing | outside yourself can hurt you or disturb your peace or upset you in |
| W1:70.8 | signifying your recognition that salvation comes from nothing | outside of you. You might put it this way: |
| W1:70.15 | My salvation comes from me. Nothing | outside of me can hold me back. Within me is the world's salvation |
| W1:71.2 | be saved. Thus the source of salvation is constantly perceived as | outside yourself. |
| W1:72.9 | your peace of mind. You have seen yourself in a body and the truth | outside you, locked away from your awareness by the body's |
| W1:72.10 | truth is in us, where it was placed by God. It is the body that is | outside us and is not our concern. To be without a body is to be in |
| W1:85.5 | Source, and so it cannot have left my mind. I will not look for it | outside myself. It is not found outside and then brought in. But from |
| W1:85.5 | left my mind. I will not look for it outside myself. It is not found | outside and then brought in. But from within me it will reach beyond, |
| W1:122.6 | Here is the answer! Would you stand | outside while all of Heaven waits for you within? Forgive and be |
| W1:127.11 | them throughout the day because we cannot leave a part of us | outside our love if we would know our Self. At least three times an |
| W1:169.12 | could you finally attain to it forever while a part of you remains | outside, unknowing, unawakened, and in need of you as witness to the |
| W1:170.5 | who make attack and must have first conceived of it. Yet you attack | outside yourself and separate your mind from him who is to be |
| W1:188.6 | way. For honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things | outside yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself. These |
| W1:196.10 | you believed attack could be directed outward and returned from | outside to within. It seemed to be an enemy outside you had to fear. |
| W1:196.10 | and returned from outside to within. It seemed to be an enemy | outside you had to fear. And thus a god outside yourself became your |
| W1:196.10 | It seemed to be an enemy outside you had to fear. And thus a god | outside yourself became your mortal enemy—the source of fear. |
| W1:197.1 | Here is the second step we take to free your mind from the belief in | outside force pitted against your own. You make attempts at kindness |
| W1:197.6 | But learn to let forgiveness take away the sins you think you see | outside yourself, and you can never think the gifts of God are lent |
| W1:197.9 | who makes your Self complete. And from this Self is no one left | outside. Give thanks for all the countless channels which extend this |
| W2:WIB.1 | else could he be certain he remains within the body, keeping love | outside? |
| W2:263.2 | And while we still remain | outside the gate of Heaven, let us look on all we see through holy |
| W2:WIRW.2 | are no cries of pain and sorrow heard, for nothing here remains | outside forgiveness. And the sights are gentle. Only happy sights and |
| W2:335.1 | to this alone that I respond, however much I seem to be impelled by | outside happenings. I choose to see what I would look upon, and this |
| M:5.2 | for placing God's Son on his Father's throne. God is seen as | outside, fierce and powerful, eager to keep all power for Himself. |
| M:8.3 | these differences come from? Certainly they seem to be in the world | outside. Yet it is surely the mind that judges what the eyes behold. |

| Tx:2.11 | The world was made as “a natural grand division,” or a projecting | outward of God. That is why everything that He created is like Him. |
| Tx:6.33 | Thoughts begin in the mind of the thinker from which they [extend] | outward. This is as true of God's thinking as it is of yours. Because |
| Tx:6.33 | of mind. You perceive from your mind and extend your perceptions | outward. Although perception of any kind is unnecessary, you made it, |
| Tx:6.36 | He perceives only what is true in your mind and extends | outward only to what is true in other minds. |
| Tx:6.38 | peace of the Kingdom shines in your mind forever, but it must shine | outward to make you aware of it. The Holy Spirit was given you with |
| Tx:6.39 | before, every idea begins in the mind of the thinker and extends | outward. Therefore, what extends from the mind is still in it, and |
| Tx:6.57 | is an ongoing process, not in time, but in eternity. God's extending | outward, though not His completeness, is blocked when the Sonship |
| Tx:7.2 | to your creations. Only in this way can all creative power extend | outward. God's accomplishments are not yours. But yours are like His. |
| Tx:7.3 | your sons are part of His Sons. To create is to love. Love extends | outward simply because it cannot be contained. Being limitless, it |
| Tx:7.5 | forever, since joy and eternity are inseparable. God extends | outward beyond limits and beyond time, and you who are co-creators |
| Tx:8.18 | fatherhood to His Son, because His own Fatherhood must be extended | outward. You who belong in God have the holy function of extending |
| Tx:11.31 | is a necessary consequence of what you have done. You have projected | outward what is antagonistic to what is inward, and therefore you |
| Tx:11.55 | perception of self-value come from the projection of loving thoughts | outward. Make the world real unto yourself, for the real world is the |
| Tx:13.51 | Seeing is always | outward. Were your thoughts wholly of you, the thought system which |
| Tx:15.68 | are host to it, it will enable you to direct the anger that it holds | outward, thus protecting you. And thus it embarks on an endless, |
| Tx:15.99 | demand total sacrifice of you, you thought it safer to project Him | outward and away from you and not be host to Him. To Him you ascribed |
| Tx:18.6 | That was the first projection of error | outward. The world arose to hide it and became the screen on which it |

| Tx:20.55 | is the ego's idol; the belief in sin made flesh and then projected | outward. This produces what seems to be a wall of flesh around the |

| W1:8.1 | No one really sees anything. He sees only his thoughts projected | outward. The mind's preoccupation with the past is the cause of the |
| W1:34.1 | matter. It must begin with your own thoughts and then extend | outward. It is from your peace of mind that a peaceful perception of |
| W1:189.9 | Him how to find His way. Through every opened door His love shines | outward from its home within and lightens up the world in innocence. |
| W1:196.10 | this had been concealed while you believed attack could be directed | outward and returned from outside to within. It seemed to be an enemy |
| W2:304.1 | mirror, not a fact. And what I look on is my state of mind reflected | outward. I would bless the world by looking on it through the eyes of |
| W2:325.1 | and therefore seeks to find. These images are then projected | outward, looked upon, esteemed as real, and guarded as one's own. |

| Tx:2.49 | and protected. Perfectly aware of the right defense, It passes | over all others, looking past error to truth. Because of the real |
| Tx:2.57 | devices is evil. Sometimes the illness has a sufficiently great hold | over a mind to render a person inaccessible to Atonement. In this |

| Tx:8.32 | all God's Sons cannot be recognized through the dominion of one will | over another. God's Sons are equal in will, all being the Will of |

| Tx:10.63 | of the devotion of God's Son nor the power of the god he worships | over him. For he places himself at the altar of his god, whether it |
| Tx:11.33 | could not will against Him, and that is why you have no control | over the world you made. It is not a world of will because it is |
| Tx:11.34 | yourself, for only by recognizing where it is will you gain control | over it. For you do have control over your mind since the mind is the |
| Tx:11.34 | where it is will you gain control over it. For you do have control | over your mind since the mind is the mechanism of decision. If you |

| Tx:12.31 | is the only purpose the ego perceives in time, and it closes | over the present so that no gap in its own continuity can occur. Its |
| Tx:12.64 | journey home. You wait but for yourself. To give this sad world | over and exchange your errors for the peace of God is but your will. |

| Tx:13.8 | no one untouched and no one left alone. And suddenly time will be | over, and we will all unite in the eternity of God the Father. The |
| Tx:13.17 | world seems dark and shrouded in your guilt. You throw a dark veil | over it and cannot see it because you cannot look within. You are |

| Tx:13.72 | for if you do, you teach yourself that what is not of God has power | over you. The causeless cannot be. Do not attest to it, and do not |

| Tx:15.38 | any time and anywhere you want it. In your practice, try to give | over every plan you have accepted for finding magnitude in |
| Tx:15.81 | seek not to restore it to yourselves. Fear not to give redemption | over to your Redeemer's love. He will not fail you, for He comes from |
| Tx:16.7 | which is its meaning, lies in the strength of God, which hovers | over it and blesses it silently by enveloping it in healing wings. |
| Tx:16.28 | what it is, being joined within it. And so the one who would cross | over is literally transported there. |
| Tx:16.34 | with the “triumph of love” at all. The illusion of love can triumph | over the illusion of hate, but always at the price of making both |
| Tx:16.47 | and in the extension of the “victory” even to the final triumph | over God. In this it sees the ultimate freedom of the self, for |
| Tx:16.52 | If you perceived the special relationship as a triumph | over God, would you want it? Let us not think of its fearful nature |
| Tx:16.53 | which you have made with power you wrested from truth, triumphing | over it and leaving it helpless. See how exactly is this ritual |
| Tx:16.53 | on his body raise another self which takes its power from his death. | Over and over and over this ritual is enacted. And it is never |

| Tx:16.68 | The new perspective you will gain from crossing | over will be the understanding of where Heaven is. From here it seems |
| Tx:16.80 | is to accept relationships as real and through their reality to give | over all illusions for the reality of your relationship with God. |
| Tx:17.54 | compelling it may be, is easily forgotten if you allow time to close | over it. It must be kept shining and gracious in your awareness of |

| Tx:19.44 | in miracles, for they are all the same. Each is a gentle winning | over from the appeal of guilt to the appeal of love. How can this |
| Tx:19.45 | you now. Look not upon the little wall of shadows. The sun has risen | over it. How can a shadow keep you from the sun? No more can you be |
| Tx:19.84 | Here is the final end of union, the triumph of the ego's making | over creation, the victory of lifelessness on Life Itself. |
| Tx:19.88 | terror and makes your body tremble and the cold sweat of fear comes | over it, remember it is always for one reason—the ego has perceived |
| Tx:19.99 | journey without a purpose is still meaningless, and even when it is | over, it seems to make no sense. How can you know that it is over |
| Tx:19.99 | it is over, it seems to make no sense. How can you know that it is | over unless you realize its purpose is accomplished? Here, with the |
| Tx:19.110 | is meaningless. What you had faith in still is faithful and watches | over you in faith so gentle yet so strong that it would lift you far |
| Tx:20.21 | questioned it and whispered, “What are you?” And He Who watches | over all perception answered. Take not the judgment of the world as |
| Tx:20.30 | made to guarantee that you would make mistakes and give them power | over you by accepting their results as your just due. What could this |
| Tx:20.44 | Be comforted and feel the Holy Spirit watching | over you in love and perfect confidence in what He sees. He knows the |
| Tx:20.59 | change in a relationship from sin to holiness should now be almost | over. To the extent you still experience it, you are refusing to |
| Tx:21.26 | same mistake. Nothing created not by your Creator has any influence | over you. And if you think what you have made can tell you what you |
| Tx:21.69 | The power that you have | over the Son of God is not a threat to his reality. It but attests to |
| Tx:22.25 | it must be healed and not with fear. Nothing you made has any power | over you unless you still would be apart from your Creator and with a |
| Tx:22.40 | how thin the drapery that separates you now. Yet it is almost | over in your awareness, and peace has reached you even here before |
| Tx:22.50 | between you and your brother. And not one that truth cannot pass | over lightly and so easily that you must be convinced, in spite of |
| Tx:23.8 | The ego always marches to defeat because it thinks that triumph | over you is possible. And God thinks otherwise. This is no war—only |
| Tx:23.10 | Brothers, the war against yourself is almost | over. The journey's end is at the place of peace. Would you not now |
| Tx:23.11 | what you are. Only a strange illusion of yourself, a wish to triumph | over what you are, remembers not. |
| Tx:23.12 | to reality and has no influence upon it. Illusions cannot triumph | over truth, nor can they threaten it in any way. And the reality |
| Tx:23.16 | its Creator, and everything is given those who would remember Him. | Over His home the Holy Spirit watches, sure that its peace can never |
| Tx:23.46 | escape from conflict. To be released from conflict means that it is | over. The door is open; you have left the battleground. You have not |
| Tx:23.51 | Bodies may battle, but the clash of forms is meaningless. And it is | over when you realize it never was begun. How can a battle be |
| Tx:24.43 | then go out, to lead the other to a nameless precipice and hurl him | over it. For what can specialness delight in but to kill? What does |
| Tx:24.57 | Son, whom you mistook as flesh and bound to laws that have no power | over him at all. |
| Tx:25.21 | what He offers unto the Father and the Son alike. Nothing has power | over you except His Will and yours, who but extend His Will. It was |

| Tx:26.43 | Will of God nor any need that you repeat again a journey that was | over long ago. Look gently on each other and behold the world in |
| Tx:28.1 | kept in memory, appears to have immediate effects. This world was | over long ago. The thoughts that made it are no longer in the mind |
| Tx:28.2 | All the effects of guilt are here no more. For guilt is | over. In its passing went its consequences, left without a cause. Why |
| Tx:28.15 | reach. His Father wills that he be lifted up and gently carried | over. He has built the bridge, and it is He Who will transport His |
| Tx:29.5 | with a power that lies not within itself. And herein lies its power | over you. For now you think that it determines when you meet and |
| Tx:29.45 | does he seek to kill God's Son within and prove that he is victor | over him. This is the purpose every idol has, for this the role that |
| Tx:29.67 | it has. Only forgiving dreams can enter here, for time is almost | over. And the forms which enter in the dream are now perceived as |

| Tx:2.57 | the first level of the error to believe that the body created its | own illness. It is a second misstep to attempt to heal it through |
| Tx:2.61 | for the mind. This learning device is not subject to errors of its | own because it was created but is not creating. It should be obvious, |
| Tx:2.62 | healing devices, because they cannot misperceive them as their | own creations. As long as their sense of vulnerability persists, they |
| Tx:2.64 | The healer who relies on his | own readiness is endangering his understanding. He is perfectly safe |
| Tx:2.65 | this, the miracle worker releases the mind from over-evaluating its | own learning device (the body) and restores the mind to its true |
| Tx:2.68 | The real vision is obscured, because man cannot endure to see his | own defiled altar. But since the altar has been defiled, his state |
| Tx:2.70 | gone far beyond his actual accomplishments in time. Since his | own thinking is faulty, he cannot see the Atonement for himself or he |
| Tx:2.80 | cannot ask more than you will. The strength to do comes from your | own undivided will to do. There is no strain in doing God's Will as |
| Tx:2.80 | in doing God's Will as soon as you recognize that it is also your | own. |
| Tx:2.92 | of how man has depreciated himself because he is afraid of his | own thoughts. In some forms of insanity, thoughts are glorified, but |
| Tx:2.92 | against it is because they know that thoughts can hurt them. Their | own thoughts have made them vulnerable. |
| Tx:2.93 | this world. I would hardly help if I depreciated the power of your | own thinking. This would be in direct opposition to the purpose of |
| Tx:2.95 | made. You would never have done this if you were not afraid of your | own thoughts. The vulnerable are essentially miscreators because they |
| Tx:2.97 | which are totally different from those which man introduced into his | own miscreations. The fundamental opponents in the real basic |
| Tx:2.105 | is virtually inevitable. His will to create was given him by his | own Creator, Who was expressing the same will in His creation. Since |
| Tx:2.105 | of will. It also follows that whatever he creates is real in his | own sight but not necessarily in the sight of God. This basic |
| Tx:2.109 | true meaning of the Apocalypse. Man will ultimately look upon his | own creations and will to preserve only what is good, just as God |
| Tx:2.110 | At this point, the will can begin to look with love on its | own creations because of their great worthiness. The mind will |
| Tx:2.111 | No one who lives in fear is really alive. His | own last judgment cannot be directed toward himself because he is not |
| Tx:2.111 | judgment cannot be directed toward himself because he is not his | own creation. He can, however, apply it meaningfully and at any time |
| Tx:2.111 | is solely to “give him time” to achieve this judgment. It is his | own perfect judgment of his own creations. When everything he retains |
| Tx:2.111 | to achieve this judgment. It is his own perfect judgment of his | own creations. When everything he retains is loveable, there is no |
| Tx:3.2 | in the Presence of your Creator. I have been careful to clarify my | own role in the Atonement, without either over- or understating it. I |
| Tx:3.10 | “Be of one mind” is the statement for revelation-readiness. My | own injunction, “Do this in remembrance of me” is the request for |
| Tx:3.12 | that God Himself would be capable of the kind of thinking which His | own words have clearly stated is unworthy of man? |
| Tx:3.13 | justify the terrible misperception that God Himself persecuted His | own Son on behalf of salvation. The very words are meaningless. |
| Tx:3.15 | It is a real misperception of truth by which man assigns his | own “evil” past to God. The “evil conscience” from the past has |
| Tx:3.21 | Sacrificing another in any way is a clear cut violation of God's | own injunction that man should be merciful even as his Father in |
| Tx:3.24 | the Atonement, not sacrifice, is the only appropriate gift to His | own altar, where nothing except true perfection belongs. The |
| Tx:3.29 | Because you see them as they are, you offer them your | own validation of their truth. This is the healing which the miracle |
| Tx:3.36 | perception is necessary before God can communicate directly to His | own altars which He has established in His Sons. There He can |
| Tx:3.42 | can never make his misperceptions valid. His creation is beyond his | own error, and that is why he must eventually choose to heal the |
| Tx:3.45 | The mind chose to divide itself when it willed to create both its | own levels and the ability to perceive, but it could not entirely |
| Tx:3.47 | but it cannot attack. What man perceives as its attack is merely his | own vague recognition of the fact that it can always be remembered, |
| Tx:3.48 | with that of my Creator, I naturally remembered the Soul and its | own real purpose. |
| Tx:3.49 | bring it under my guidance. Only your misperceptions stand in your | own way. Without them your choice is certain. Sane perception induces |
| Tx:3.49 | perception. I cannot choose for you, but I can help you make your | own right choice. “Many are called, but few are chosen” should read, |
| Tx:3.53 | The confusion between your | own creation and what you create is so profound that it has become |
| Tx:3.57 | “God created man in His | own image and likeness” is correct in meaning, but the words are open |

| Tx:3.57 | did create the Soul in His own Thought and of a quality like to His | own. There is nothing else. Perception, on the other hand, is |
| Tx:3.61 | reality of others at all, you will be unable to avoid judging your | own. The choice to judge rather than to know was the cause of the |
| Tx:3.66 | only to your belief in its efficacy as a weapon of defense for your | own authority. The issue of authority is really a question of |
| Tx:3.69 | Only those who give over all desire to reject can know that their | own rejection is impossible. You have not usurped the power of God, |
| Tx:3.70 | To deny His Authorship is to deny themselves the reason for their | own peace, so that they see themselves only in pieces. This strange |
| Tx:3.71 | feel that he is imprisoned in some way. If this is the result of his | own free will, he must regard his will as if it were not free, or the |
| Tx:3.71 | and you have said, “I know what I am, and I will to accept my | own inheritance.” |
| Tx:3.73 | the Souls He created. He deceives by lies and builds kingdoms of his | own in which everything is in direct opposition to God. Yet he |
| Tx:3.75 | you that He does, would He have put them in a position where their | own destruction was possible? The “tree” which was forbidden was |
| Tx:3.75 | sees either God or His creations as capable of destroying their | own purpose is in error. |
| Tx:3.77 | might bring it to light. You still believe you are images of your | own creation. Your minds are split with your Souls on this point, and |
| Tx:3.80 | The light will shine from the true Foundation of Life, and your | own thought system will stand corrected. It cannot stand otherwise. |
| Tx:4.3 | it, but dismiss it as accomplished. If you can accept it as your | own last foolish journey, you are also free to join my resurrection. |
| Tx:4.6 | is to identify with an idea and offer the idea to others to be their | own. The idea does not lessen; it becomes stronger. |
| Tx:4.7 | A good teacher clarifies his | own ideas and strengthens them by teaching them. Teacher and pupil |
| Tx:4.11 | home. Every good teacher hopes to give his students so much of his | own thinking that they will one day no longer need him. This is the |
| Tx:4.11 | to convince the ego of this because it goes against all of its | own laws. But remember that laws are set up to protect the continuity |
| Tx:4.18 | worthy of His creations, who have chosen to leave it empty by their | own dispossession. Yet His home will stand forever and is ready for |
| Tx:4.26 | Your | own present state is a good example of how the mind made the ego. You |
| Tx:4.27 | You forget the love that animals have for their | own offspring and the need they feel to protect them. This is because |
| Tx:4.33 | The ego believes it is completely on its | own, which is merely another way of describing how it originated. |
| Tx:4.33 | The ego is the belief of the mind that it is completely on its | own. Its ceaseless attempts to gain the Soul's acknowledgment and |
| Tx:4.33 | attempts to gain the Soul's acknowledgment and thus to establish its | own existence are utterly useless. |
| Tx:4.35 | the ego's struggle to preserve itself and its interpretation of its | own beginning. This beginning is always associated with physical |
| Tx:4.46 | are threatening to the ego and, being concerned primarily with its | own preservation in the face of threat, the ego perceives them as the |
| Tx:4.47 | The reason you need my help is because you have repressed your | own Guide and therefore need guidance. My role is to separate the |
| Tx:4.48 | can offer is a sense of temporary existence, which begins with its | own beginning and ends with its own ending. It tells you this life is |
| Tx:4.48 | existence, which begins with its own beginning and ends with its | own ending. It tells you this life is your existence because it is |
| Tx:4.48 | ending. It tells you this life is your existence because it is its | own. Against this sense of temporary existence the Soul offers you |
| Tx:4.49 | out of the denial of the Father, the ego has no allegiance to its | own maker. You cannot conceive of the real relationship which exists |
| Tx:4.49 | hatred you have for the self you have made. You project onto your | own idea of yourself the will to separate, which conflicts with the |
| Tx:4.51 | No force except your | own will is strong enough or worthy enough to guide you. In this you |
| Tx:4.54 | In your | own unconscious, deeply repressed by the ego, is the declaration of |
| Tx:4.59 | and do not have. Know you are deprived of nothing except by your | own decisions, and then decide otherwise. |
| Tx:4.64 | and step away from them. Judge how well you have done this by your | own feelings, for this is the one right use of judgment. Judgment, |
| Tx:4.64 | be brought to your judgment and found wanting there. Without your | own allegiance, protection, and love, it cannot exist. Judge your ego |
| Tx:4.67 | vigilance in this, because you are too confused to recognize your | own hope. I was not mistaken. Your minds will elect to join with |
| Tx:4.71 | The body is the ego's home by its | own election. It is the only identification with which the ego feels |
| Tx:4.71 | which the ego feels safe, because the body's vulnerability is its | own best argument that you cannot be of God. This is the belief that |
| Tx:4.74 | as a product of the mind, it is endowed with the power of its | own creator. However, the decision to do this, rather than the |
| Tx:4.76 | If gold became more plentiful, its value would decrease, and his | own purpose would be defeated. The ego has countenanced some strange |
| Tx:4.79 | to attribute it to the mental illness of the patient rather than his | own and to limit his questions about both the patient and himself to |
| Tx:4.84 | have spoken of the ego as if it were a separate thing acting on its | own. This was necessary to persuade you that you cannot dismiss it |
| Tx:4.90 | Because you are all the Kingdom of God, I can lead you back to your | own creations, which you do not yet know. What has been dissociated |
| Tx:4.95 | to abolish it. The communication system of the ego is based on its | own thought system, as is everything else it dictates. Its |
| Tx:4.95 | perceive different kinds of threat which are quite specific in their | own judgment. For example, although all forms of perceived demands |
| Tx:4.98 | this state to be curtailed, you are limiting your sense of your | own reality, which becomes total only by your recognizing all reality |
| Tx:4.100 | yours is incomplete. And this He does know. He knows it in His | own Being and its experience of His Son's experience. The constant |
| Tx:4.102 | the Kingdom. Every mind that is changed adds to this joy with its | own individual willingness to share in it. The truly helpful are |
| Tx:4.104 | ego weakness either without ambivalence because it is afraid of its | own weakness as well as the weakness of its chosen home. When it is |

| Tx:4.105 | damaged. By these evaluations, they have weakened and damaged their | own helpfulness and have thus set their own rehabilitation back. |
| Tx:4.105 | weakened and damaged their own helpfulness and have thus set their | own rehabilitation back. Rehabilitation is not concerned either with |
| Tx:4.105 | or its need to avoid and withdraw. You can do much on behalf of your | own rehabilitation and that of others if in a situation calling for |
| Tx:5.9 | the Holy Spirit down to you, but I can bring Him to you only at your | own invitation. The Holy Spirit is nothing more than your own right |
| Tx:5.9 | at your own invitation. The Holy Spirit is nothing more than your | own right mind. He was also mine. The Bible says, “May the mind be in |
| Tx:5.16 | way beyond the healing which it brings and leads the mind beyond its | own integration into the paths of creation. |
| Tx:5.21 | falls away and the Kingdom of Heaven breaks through into its | own. Before the separation you did not need guidance. You knew as you |
| Tx:5.25 | “What profiteth it a man if he gain the whole world and lose his | own Soul?” That means that if he listens to the wrong voice, he has |
| Tx:5.26 | will and therefore in your mind. The Voice for God comes from your | own altars to Him. These altars are not things; they are devotions. |
| Tx:5.35 | It is impossible to hear it in yourself while it is so weak in your | own mind. It is not weak in itself, but it is limited by your |
| Tx:5.38 | with symbols enables Him to work against the ego's beliefs in its | own language. His equal ability to look beyond symbols into eternity |
| Tx:5.41 | mind misperceive, but the Holy Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its | own misperceptions. The Holy Spirit is the perfect teacher. He uses |
| Tx:5.41 | it. The Holy Spirit recognizes it perfectly, because it is His | own dwelling place or the place in the mind where He is at home. |
| Tx:5.44 | You must have noticed how often I have used your | own ideas to help you. You have learned to be a loving, wise, and |
| Tx:5.45 | the errors which hid their light and have kept them for you in their | own perfect radiance. They are beyond destruction and beyond guilt. |
| Tx:5.49 | a real foundation. I have come to give you the foundation, so your | own thoughts can make you really free. You have carried the burden of |
| Tx:5.65 | to God a punishing intent, and then takes over this intent as its | own prerogative. It tries to usurp all the functions of God as it |
| Tx:5.68 | Guilt is inescapable for those who believe they order their | own thought and must therefore obey its orders. This makes them feel |
| Tx:5.75 | others, but if you will let the Holy Spirit reinterpret these in His | own light, they will suffice. |
| Tx:5.80 | Appeal everything you believe gladly to God's | own Higher Court, because it speaks for Him and therefore speaks |
| Tx:5.84 | was extremely ingenious, and a mind must endow its thoughts with its | own attributes. This is its inherent strength, although it may misuse |
| Tx:5.89 | This knowledge plagued Freud's belief in his | own thought system at every turn because he was both an honest man |
| Tx:5.92 | yourself from the Atonement is the ego's last-ditch defense of its | own existence. It reflects both the ego's need to separate and your |
| Tx:6.1 | of separation, which must ultimately be accepted as entirely one's | own responsibility. Anger cannot occur unless you believe that you |
| Tx:6.5 | time. Nevertheless, it has a definite contribution to make to your | own lives, and if you will consider it without fear, it will help you |
| Tx:6.5 | you will consider it without fear, it will help you understand your | own role as teachers. |
| Tx:6.9 | the Sons of God should want to teach if they are to realize their | own salvation. Rather, teach your own perfect immunity, which is the |
| Tx:6.9 | teach if they are to realize their own salvation. Rather, teach your | own perfect immunity, which is the truth in you, and know that it |
| Tx:6.9 | assailable. You are not asked to be crucified, which was part of my | own teaching contribution. You are merely asked to follow my example |
| Tx:6.19 | for the same reason that makes anyone misunderstand anything. Their | own imperfect love made them vulnerable to projection, and out of |
| Tx:6.19 | imperfect love made them vulnerable to projection, and out of their | own fear they spoke of the “wrath of God” as His retaliatory weapon. |
| Tx:6.19 | they speak of the crucifixion entirely without anger, because their | own sense of guilt had made them angry. |
| Tx:6.27 | Projection will always hurt you. It reinforces your belief in your | own split mind, and its only purpose is to keep the separation going. |
| Tx:6.38 | Kingdom, but your part is only to allow no darkness to abide in your | own mind. This alignment with light is unlimited, because it is in |
| Tx:6.42 | the Holy Spirit because, as you see His gentleness in others, your | own mind perceives itself as totally harmless. Once it can accept |
| Tx:6.49 | attempts to persuade the mind, which is real, that the mind is its | own learning device and that the learning device is more real than it |
| Tx:6.55 | God proved to you that you have thought insanely? Can God lose His | own certainty? We have frequently stated that what you teach you are. |
| Tx:6.57 | having believed what was not true. You did not believe in your | own perfection. Could God teach you that you had made a split mind, |
| Tx:6.70 | and learn. These insane concepts are clearly the result of their | own dissociation and projection. What you teach you are, but it is |
| Tx:6.73 | consistently as yet. Further, the mind of the learner projects its | own split, and thus does not perceive consistent minds in others, |
| Tx:6.82 | For your | own salvation you must be critical, since your salvation is critical |
| Tx:7.2 | God and He created you, the Kingdom could not increase through its | own creative thought. Creation would therefore be limited, and you |
| Tx:7.14 | that the increase of the Kingdom depends on it, just as their | own creation did. |
| Tx:7.29 | perfect Thought. It sees only brothers, because it sees only in its | own light. |
| Tx:7.39 | clarification. The unhealed healer obviously does not understand his | own vocation. |
| Tx:7.47 | he is learning so little. His healing lesson is limited by his | own ingratitude, which is a lesson in sickness. Learning is constant |
| Tx:7.54 | That includes his perception of God, of His creations, and of his | own. He will not appreciate any of them if he regards them fearfully. |
| Tx:7.55 | induces feelings of unreality, and results in utter confusion. Your | own thinking has done this because of its power, but your own |
| Tx:7.55 | Your own thinking has done this because of its power, but your | own thinking can also save you from this, because its power is not of |
| Tx:7.56 | of this source, it is forced to depreciate it. This threatens its | own existence, a state which it finds intolerable. |
| Tx:7.57 | if you side with it by guaranteeing that you will not know your | own safety. The ego cannot afford to know anything. Knowledge is |
| Tx:7.57 | origin and, while the ego does not love you, it is faithful to its | own antecedents, begetting as it was begotten. |
| Tx:7.58 | gives you everything. No one who has everything wants the ego. Its | own maker, then, does not want it. Rejection is therefore the only |
| Tx:7.62 | you really are. The ego therefore wants to engage your mind in its | own delusional system, because otherwise the light of your |
| Tx:7.76 | accept His gift for yourself and as yourself. You cannot know your | own perfection until you have honored all those who were created like |
| Tx:7.78 | want it. This makes you feel deprived of it, and by projecting your | own rejection, you believe that others are taking it from you. One |
| Tx:7.82 | sharing by which you give what you value in order to keep it in your | own mind. |
| Tx:7.84 | lest you give the ego up and free yourself. The ego, using its | own warped version of the laws of God, utilizes the power of the mind |
| Tx:7.86 | That is why those who project from the ego are vigilant for their | own safety. They are afraid that their projections will return and |
| Tx:7.86 | them. They do believe they have blotted their projections from their | own minds, but they also believe their projections are trying to |
| Tx:7.87 | of the laws of God by distorted minds which are misusing their | own power. |
| Tx:7.88 | because they come from an attempt to project responsibility for your | own errors. But having accepted the errors as yours, do not keep |
| Tx:7.92 | knows that the consciousness of all its brothers is included in its | own, as it is included in God. The power of the whole Sonship and of |
| Tx:7.92 | of the whole Sonship and of its Creator is therefore the Soul's | own fullness, rendering its creations equally whole and equal in |
| Tx:7.93 | unfulfillment, and therefore you must create. You may not know your | own creations, but this can no more interfere with their reality than |
| Tx:7.94 | Mind of God. You do not know your joy, because you do not know your | own self-fullness. Exclude any part of the Kingdom from yourself, and |
| Tx:7.95 | awareness whenever you will let Him. They are there as part of your | own being, because your fulfillment includes them. The creations of |
| Tx:7.97 | an expression of this confidence. They are reflections both of your | own proper identification with your brothers and of your own |
| Tx:7.97 | of your own proper identification with your brothers and of your | own awareness that your identification is maintained by extension. |
| Tx:7.104 | that the follower is. However, this too is merely a matter of his | own belief. Believing that he can betray, he believes that everything |
| Tx:7.108 | It is also the only environment that is worthy of him, because his | own worth is beyond anything he can make. |
| Tx:7.110 | He knows. When a mind has only light, it knows only light. Its | own radiance shines all around it and extends out into the darkness |
| Tx:7.111 | Perceiving the Majesty of God as your brother is to accept your | own inheritance. God gives only equally. If you recognize His gift in |
| Tx:8.9 | you a sensible answer to anything. Simply on the grounds of your | own experience with the ego's teaching, should not this alone |
| Tx:8.11 | be learned, but the attempt to learn it is a violation of your | own freedom and makes you afraid of your will because it is free. The |
| Tx:8.15 | His appeal, then, is merely to what the Kingdom is and for its | own acknowledgment of what it is. When you acknowledge this, you |
| Tx:8.15 | his Creator, because it is the Voice for his creations and for his | own extension. |
| Tx:8.18 | Creator. The Father must give fatherhood to His Son, because His | own Fatherhood must be extended outward. You who belong in God have |
| Tx:8.22 | then, you cannot listen to the ego. Its purpose is to defeat its | own goal. The ego does not know this, because it does not know |
| Tx:8.31 | or not whole. Your will is the means by which you determine your | own condition, because will is the mechanism of decision. It is the |
| Tx:8.50 | do not understand this for a very simple reason. You who are God's | own treasure do not regard yourselves as valuable. Given this belief, |
| Tx:8.57 | Yet all loss comes only from your | own misunderstanding. Loss of any kind is impossible. When you look |
| Tx:8.57 | must have attacked yourself first. Do not see him this way for your | own salvation, which must bring him his. Do not allow him to belittle |
| Tx:8.63 | it will distort its perception of the body and, by blocking its | own extension beyond it, will induce illness by fostering separation. |
| Tx:8.64 | is a fundamental confusion. Learning can hardly be arrested at its | own aids with hope of understanding either the aids or the learning's |
| Tx:8.66 | and is interfering with his ability to accept its purpose as his | own. |
| Tx:8.69 | this is what it believes. The body, then, is not the source of its | own health. The body's condition lies solely in your interpretation |
| Tx:8.71 | characteristic of every end that the ego has accepted as its | own. When you have achieved it, it has not satisfied you. This is why |
| Tx:8.79 | to be a mirror of a split mind. Do not let it be an image of your | own perception of littleness. Do not let it reflect your will to |
| Tx:8.90 | What seems to be the fear of God is really only the fear of your | own reality. |
| Tx:8.92 | effort, within the limits you impose on Him, to re-establish your | own will in your consciousness. |
| Tx:9.24 | real has happened to the unhealed healer, and he learns from his | own teaching. |
| Tx:9.40 | are and wholly mistrustful of everything it perceives, because its | own perceptions are so shifting. The ego is therefore capable of |
| Tx:9.43 | You cannot evaluate an insane belief system from within it. Its | own range precludes this. You can only go beyond it, look back from a |
| Tx:9.50 | the difference between miracle impulses and ego-alien beliefs of its | own. We once said that the ego is aware of threat, but does not make |
| Tx:9.50 | between two entirely different kinds of threat to its existence. Its | own profound sense of vulnerability renders it incapable of judgment |
| Tx:9.58 | He would have you replace the ego's belief in littleness with His | own exalted answer to the question of your being, so that you can |
| Tx:9.65 | awakening to reality. Is it your will to do so? You know from your | own experience that what you see in dreams you think is real as long |
| Tx:9.69 | are part of Him when you are willing to remember Him and know your | own reality again. Let nothing in this world delay your remembering |
| Tx:9.72 | attack is self-attack. It cannot be anything else. Arising from your | own decision not to be what you are, it is an attack on your |
| Tx:9.83 | and because of this fear, you have been willing to give up your | own perfect helpfulness and your own perfect Help. |
| Tx:9.83 | have been willing to give up your own perfect helpfulness and your | own perfect Help. |
| Tx:9.93 | what it means. They do not realize that to deny God is to deny their | own identity, and in this sense the wages of sin is death. The sense |
| Tx:9.95 | the denial of health, because health is in direct opposition to its | own survival. But consider what this means to you. Unless you are |
| Tx:9.101 | kind. If you deny Him, you bring sin, pain, and suffering into your | own mind because of the power He gave it. Your mind is capable of |
| Tx:10.2 | is nothing more than a delusional system in which you made your | own father. Make no mistake about this. It sounds insane when it is |
| Tx:10.12 | God's Will is that you are His Son. By denying this, you denied your | own will and therefore do not know what it is. The reason you must |
| Tx:10.12 | appears to be coercive, it is only because you do not recognize your | own will. |
| Tx:10.15 | you who learn that to hear the Will of your Father is to know your | own. For it is your will to be like Him, Whose Will it is that it be |
| Tx:10.17 | thought which you accept, either from your brother or in your | own mind, teaches you that you are God's Son. In every hurtful |
| Tx:10.19 | a sign that he wants to make whole. And this willingness opens his | own ears to the Voice of the Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. |
| Tx:10.19 | for beside your small willingness to make whole, He will lay His | own complete will and make yours whole. What can the Son of God not |
| Tx:10.24 | for he knows not what he does, believing his will is not his | own. The Kingdom is his, and yet he wanders homelessly. At home in |
| Tx:10.31 | its Creator that you might extend it. Yet if you hate part of your | own Soul, all your understanding is lost because you are looking on |
| Tx:10.31 | what He created is part of Him, you are denying Him His place in His | own altar. |
| Tx:10.33 | Soul lies in its limitlessness. Limit the peace you share, and your | own Soul must be unknown to you. Every altar to God is part of your |
| Tx:10.33 | You would not do so if you realized that you can only darken your | own mind. As you bring him back, so will your mind return. That is |
| Tx:10.43 | sufficient unto itself, and independent of any power except its | own. This is why it is the symbol of separation. |

| Tx:10.63 | for obedience implies submission. He would only have you learn your | own will and follow it, not in the spirit of sacrifice and |
| Tx:10.64 | God is gracious to His Son, accepting him without question as His | own. Who, then, is your own? The Father has given you all that is |
| Tx:10.64 | Son, accepting him without question as His own. Who, then, is your | own? The Father has given you all that is His, and He Himself is |
| Tx:10.66 | nailed yourself to a cross and placed a crown of thorns upon your | own head. Yet you cannot crucify God's Son, for the Will of God |
| Tx:10.66 | for the Will of God cannot die. His Son has been redeemed from his | own crucifixion, and you cannot assign to death whom God has given |
| Tx:10.67 | You will awaken to your | own call, for the Call to awake is within you. If I live in you, you |

| Tx:11.2 | very complicated, very obscuring, and never without the risk of your | own ego-involvement. The whole process represents a clear-cut attempt |
| Tx:11.2 | The whole process represents a clear-cut attempt to demonstrate your | own ability to understand what you perceive. This is shown by the |
| Tx:11.4 | Perhaps the danger of this to your | own mind is not yet fully apparent to you, but this by no means |
| Tx:11.4 | recognizing all calls for help as exactly what they are except your | own perceived need to attack. It is only this that makes you willing |
| Tx:11.5 | a brother's errors are “uncovered” and he is then attacked for his | own good. What can this be but projection? For his errors lay in the |
| Tx:11.7 | But hear his call for the help of God, and you will recognize your | own need for the Father. |
| Tx:11.11 | and denial depends on the real belief in what is denied for its | own existence. |
| Tx:11.17 | yourselves. You are hiding your nightmares in the darkness of your | own certainty and refusing to open your eyes and look at them. |
| Tx:11.29 | he is fully aware of anxiety, he does not perceive its source as his | own ego identification, and he always tries to handle it by making |
| Tx:11.34 | If you will recognize that all attack which you perceive is in your | own mind and nowhere else, you will at last have placed its source, |
| Tx:11.44 | That is why the recognition of your | own invulnerability is so important in the restoration of your |
| Tx:11.46 | yours is divided and therefore not real. You could not trust your | own love when you have attacked it. You cannot learn of perfect love |
| Tx:11.46 | you wanted to retain the characteristics of creation with your | own content. Yet creation is not of you, and poor learners need |
| Tx:11.51 | the way to achieve a goal is not to attain it? Resign now as your | own teachers. This resignation will not lead to depression. It is |
| Tx:11.53 | ego is trying to teach you how to gain the whole world and lose your | own Soul. The Holy Spirit teaches that you cannot lose your Soul and |
| Tx:12.13 | You associate love with weakness and hatred with strength, and your | own real power seems to you as your real weakness. For you could not |
| Tx:12.16 | delusions and not keep them hidden is that they do not rest on their | own foundation. In concealment they appear to do so, and thus they |
| Tx:12.20 | but still more did he fear his real Father, having attacked his | own glorious equality with Him. |
| Tx:12.27 | as they are. And you will receive messages from them out of your | own past because, by making it real in the present, you are |
| Tx:12.29 | encounter if you are merely perceiving it as a meeting with your | own past? For you are meeting no one, and the sharing of salvation, |
| Tx:12.31 | for like the Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of time as its | own. The continuity of past and future under its direction is the |
| Tx:12.31 | in time, and it closes over the present so that no gap in its | own continuity can occur. Its continuity, then, would keep you in |
| Tx:12.35 | each other because they saw in them a shadow figure in their | own private world. And thus it is that you must attack yourself |
| Tx:12.35 | for what you attack is not in others. Its only reality is in your | own mind, and by attacking others, you are literally attacking what |
| Tx:12.37 | apart, where when it comes it is not recognized. If you see your | own hatred as your brother, you are not seeing him. Everyone draws |
| Tx:12.38 | your madness, you overlook reality completely, and you see only your | own split mind everywhere you look. God calls you and you do not |
| Tx:12.38 | God calls you and you do not hear, for you are preoccupied with your | own voice. And the vision of Christ is not in your sight, for you |
| Tx:12.41 | insanity, believing you can make a private world and rule your | own perceptions. Yet for this, light must be excluded. Dreams |
| Tx:12.45 | truly is to be aware of all reality through the awareness of your | own. But for this no illusions can rise to meet your sight, for all |
| Tx:12.48 | continuity by breaking it into past, present, and future for your | own purposes. You would anticipate the future on the basis of your |
| Tx:12.53 | witness to your healing, for in their wholeness you will see your | own. And as your hymns of praise and gladness rise to your Creator, |
| Tx:12.54 | it. Everyone you see in light brings your light closer to your | own awareness. Love always leads to love. The sick who ask for love |
| Tx:12.57 | from Him. So he has never ceased to be his Father's witness and his | own. Although he slept, Christ's vision did not leave him. And so it |
| Tx:12.64 | of the other world about him. Yet while he still lays value on his | own, he will deny the vision of the other world, maintaining that he |
| Tx:12.68 | things for salvation, for possession is its law. Possession for its | own sake is the ego's fundamental creed, a basic cornerstone in the |
| Tx:13.10 | gates of Heaven, God will open them. For never would He leave His | own beloved Son outside them and beyond Himself. |
| Tx:13.13 | world can give you only what you gave it, for being nothing but your | own projection, it has no meaning apart from what you found in it and |
| Tx:13.14 | guilt that binds him to it. And in his freedom would have been your | own. |
| Tx:13.16 | that you offer the Son of God lies the conviction of your | own guilt. If you would have the Holy Spirit make you free of it, |
| Tx:13.16 | there, for it is there until it is undone. Guilt is always in your | own mind, which has condemned itself. Project it not, for while you |
| Tx:13.21 | them, the Holy Spirit cannot use them.] For by preempting for your | own ends what you should have given to Him, He cannot use them unto |
| Tx:13.21 | your release. No one who would unite in any way with anyone for his | own salvation will find it in that strange relationship. It is not |
| Tx:13.22 | seek to lay your guilt upon him or share it with him or perceive his | own, you will feel guilty. Nor will you find satisfaction and peace |
| Tx:13.22 | is to perceive the source of guilt outside themselves, beyond their | own control. |
| Tx:13.34 | Praise be unto you who make the Father one with His | own Son. Alone we are all lowly, but together we shine with |
| Tx:13.40 | makes the need for any differences disappear. Truth comes of its | own will unto its own. When you have learned that you belong to |
| Tx:13.40 | for any differences disappear. Truth comes of its own will unto its | own. When you have learned that you belong to truth, it will flow |
| Tx:13.76 | the plan which God has set for his Atonement, relinquishing his | own. You know not of salvation, for you do not understand it. Make no |
| Tx:13.92 | as if you were being carried along a quiet path in summer. Only your | own volition seems to make deciding hard. The Holy Spirit will not |
| Tx:14.8 | of guilt within which the Son of God has hidden himself from his | own sight. We are all joined in the Atonement here, and nothing else |
| Tx:14.10 | Teachers of innocence, each in his | own way, have joined together, taking their part in the unified |
| Tx:14.11 | Join your | own efforts to the power that cannot fail and must result in peace. |
| Tx:14.29 | Defenses, like everything you made, must be gently turned to your | own good, translated by the Holy Spirit from means of |
| Tx:14.37 | Your little gifts will vanish on the altar where He has placed His | Own. |
| Tx:14.46 | between God and His creations, or between His Children and their | own, the knowledge of creation must continue forever. The reflections |
| Tx:14.47 | on him, and he can no longer be satisfied with anything but his | own reality. You on earth have no conception of limitlessness, for |
| Tx:14.51 | judgment can be asked to do that which requires no judgment of your | own. The answer is very simple. The power of God, and not of you, |
| Tx:14.65 | And so I do not know how to respond to it. And I will not use my | own past learning as the light to guide me now. |
| Tx:15.2 | in the future. This is not so. For the Holy Spirit uses time in His | own way and is not bound by it. [Time is His friend in teaching. It |
| Tx:15.5 | itself cannot be separated, and because it cannot conceive of its | own death, it will pursue you still because guilt is eternal. Such is |
| Tx:15.18 | your brothers and refuse to support either their weakness or your | own. |
| Tx:15.20 | brilliance, which will literally blind you to this world by its | own vision, you cannot supply. And here it is, all in this instant, |
| Tx:15.36 | you bring it nearer. Think not that you can find salvation in your | own way and have it. Give over every plan that you have made for your |
| Tx:15.37 | is apart from Him diminishes the value of His Will for you in your | own minds. And yet it is your mind that is the host to Him. |
| Tx:15.46 | device, for it is in the past that you learned to define your | own needs and acquired methods for meeting them on your own terms. We |
| Tx:15.46 | define your own needs and acquired methods for meeting them on your | own terms. We said before that to limit love to part of the Sonship |
| Tx:15.51 | parts of another aspect. Thus does it assemble reality to its | own capricious liking, offering for your seeking a picture whose |

| Tx:15.75 | lose them, and if your bodies are together your minds remain your | own. The union of bodies thus becomes the way in which you would keep |
| Tx:15.76 | loneliness is but the working of the ego's plan to establish its | own autonomy. As long as you believe that to be with a body is |
| Tx:16.3 | the relationship. You will neither to hurt it nor to heal it in your | own way. You do not know what healing is. All you have learned of |
| Tx:16.24 | it? It must be this that is really outside yourself, not by your | own projection, but in truth. And it is this that you have taken in |
| Tx:16.27 | learning commensurate with teaching. You have chosen this by your | own willingness to teach. Though you seemed to suffer for it, the joy |
| Tx:16.37 | and welcome them. For it is they you seek. You seek but for your | own completion, and it is they who render you complete. The special |
| Tx:16.39 | accept into your mind by judging it to be attainable removes your | own sense of completion and thus denies the wholeness of your Father. |
| Tx:16.72 | believes that you so justly merit. Yet without your alliance in your | own destruction, the ego could not hold you to the past. |
| Tx:17.1 | Son of God lies only in illusions, and all his “sins” are but his | own imagining. His reality is forever sinless. He need not be |
| Tx:17.9 | and no one and nothing remains still bound by them, and by your | own forgiveness, you are free to see. Yet what you see is only what |
| Tx:17.14 | you brought them, you will hear them. And you who kept them by your | own selection do not understand how they came into your minds and |
| Tx:17.16 | That bodies are central to all unholy relationships is evident. Your | own experience has taught you this. But what you do not realize are |
| Tx:17.36 | truth itself needs no defense, but you do need defense against your | own acceptance of the gift of death. When you who are truth accept an |
| Tx:17.36 | the joy of His eternal Spirit are marshaled to defend you from your | own attack. For you attack Them, being part of Them, and They must |
| Tx:17.45 | quite clear. For the relationship as it is, is out of line with its | own goal and clearly unsuited to the purpose which has been accepted |
| Tx:17.72 | the faith that you give to each other, or you are faithless to your | own relationship. Your faith will call the others to share your |
| Tx:18.37 | but only that I do not interfere with His plan to restore to me my | own awareness of my readiness, which is eternal. I need add nothing |
| Tx:18.37 | His plan. But to receive it, I must be willing not to substitute my | own in place of it. |
| Tx:18.44 | not even realize you have accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose as your | own, and you would merely bring unholy means to its accomplishment. |
| Tx:18.68 | Here is the ultimate release which everyone will one day find in his | own way, at his own time. We do not need this time. Time has been |
| Tx:18.68 | release which everyone will one day find in his own way, at his | own time. We do not need this time. Time has been saved for you |
| Tx:19.9 | this strange concealment has hurt your mind and how confused your | own identification has become because of it! You do not see how great |
| Tx:19.25 | you will always want it. And only an avenger with a mind unlike your | own could stamp it out through fear. |
| Tx:19.82 | can be corrected. For God has answered this insane idea with His | own, an Answer which left Him not and therefore brings the Creator to |
| Tx:19.105 | the heavy burden of sin you laid upon him and he accepted as his | own, and toss it lightly and with happy laughter away from him. Press |
| Tx:19.110 | you to see this purpose in your holy Friend and recognize it is your | own. |
| Tx:20.3 | him there. Help him to go in peace beyond it, with the light of his | own innocence lighting his way to his redemption and release. Hold |
| Tx:20.5 | thorns, not recognizing it for what it is and trying to justify your | own interpretation of its value by his acceptance. Yet still the gift |
| Tx:20.7 | that they may see what he has placed upon it and take it for their | own. Here is the value that you lay upon your brother and on |
| Tx:20.9 | another sight. Those who accept the Holy Spirit's purpose as their | own share also His vision. And what enables Him to see His purpose |
| Tx:20.29 | It lies in him to overlook all your mistakes, and therein lies his | own salvation. And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a lesson in |
| Tx:20.30 | as you are, and in the freedom that you see in him, you see your | own. For this you share. What God has given follows His laws and His |
| Tx:20.43 | it, and through His understanding recognize it and love it as your | own. |
| Tx:20.54 | on it with the gentle smile and tender blessing it offers to its | own. Here the unholy instant is exchanged in gladness for the holy |
| Tx:20.68 | Do you not want to know your | own Identity? Would you not happily exchange your doubts for |
| Tx:21.20 | the Will of his Creator, Whose Will cannot be separate from his | own. |
| Tx:21.25 | thinks it causes. Long ago we spoke of your desire to create your | own Creator and be father and not son to Him. This is the same |
| Tx:21.44 | could it have been willing to see the Holy Spirit's purpose as its | own? |
| Tx:21.47 | And earth can hold no longer what has been given Heaven as its | own. |
| Tx:21.50 | will believe that you are helpless prey to forces far beyond your | own control and far more powerful than you. And you will think the |
| Tx:21.51 | It recognizes that miracles do not affect another's mind, only Its | own. [They always change your mind.] There is no other. |
| Tx:21.55 | Reason is a means which serves the Holy Spirit's purpose in its | own right. It is not reinterpreted and redirected from the goal of |
| Tx:21.69 | God is not mocked; no more His Son can be imprisoned save by his | own desire. And it is by his own desire that he is freed. Such is his |
| Tx:21.69 | His Son can be imprisoned save by his own desire. And it is by his | own desire that he is freed. Such is his strength and not his |
| Tx:21.69 | he is freed. Such is his strength and not his weakness. He is at his | own mercy. And where he chooses to be merciful, there is he free. But |
| Tx:21.87 | sees it so. Nothing has power to confound its constancy because its | own desire cannot be shaken. It comes as surely unto those who see |
| Tx:22.3 | Therefore, he looks on nothing he would take. He denies not his | own reality, because it is the truth. Just under Heaven does he |
| Tx:22.8 | secrets. What could your secrets be except another will that is your | own, apart from His? Reason would tell you that this is no secret |
| Tx:22.25 | and make Him different. And all the misery you made has been your | own. Are you not glad to learn it is not true? Is it not welcome news |
| Tx:22.32 | It would preserve all errors and make them sins. For here is its | own stability, its heavy anchor in the shifting world it made—the |
| Tx:22.32 | are bound to bodies and believe the body's freedom is their | own. |
| Tx:22.51 | to its predominance, increasing its importance by diminishing its | own. Means serve the end, and as the end is reached, the value of the |
| Tx:22.54 | lights the sky you see, is chosen of your Father as a means for His | own plan. Be thankful that it serves yours not at all. Nothing |
| Tx:23.22 | being the belief the Son of God can make mistakes for which his | own destruction becomes inevitable. |
| Tx:23.30 | relationships have but the purpose of seizing it and making it your | own. |
| Tx:23.49 | body. He gave the function to create unto His Son because it is His | own. It is not sinful to believe the function of the Son is murder, |
| Tx:23.55 | the battleground is of the body—something it seems to offer or to | own. No one who knows that he has everything could seek for |
| Tx:24.17 | instantly to mind. And with this memory, the Son remembers his | own creations, as like to him as he is to his Father. And all the |
| Tx:24.35 | specialness? And it is this that makes it frail and helpless in its | own defense. It was conceived to make you frail and helpless. The |
| Tx:24.46 | held in you by that same hand that holds your brother's in your | own. Christ's hand holds all His brothers in Himself. He gives them |
| Tx:24.47 | holy Lord of Heaven has Himself come down to you to offer you your | own completion. What is His is yours because in your completion is |
| Tx:24.47 | completion. What is His is yours because in your completion is His | Own. He Who willed not to be without His Son could never will that |
| Tx:24.49 | is knowable and will be known to you. For He could never leave His | own creation. And the sign that this is so lies in your brother, |
| Tx:24.51 | as yours forever. And no thought within His Mind is absent from your | own. It is His Will you share His love for you and look upon yourself |
| Tx:24.65 | this purpose in your brother's, such is your condemnation of your | own. Weave, rather then, a frame of holiness around him that the |
| Tx:24.69 | teach what cannot easily be learned. Its scope does not exceed your | own, except to say that what is yours will come to you when you are |
| Tx:24.70 | ears with which you listened to the sounds it makes. It proves its | own reality to you. |
| Tx:24.71 | no escape within its sight. Its course is sure when seen through its | own eyes. It grows and withers, flourishes and dies. And you cannot |
| Tx:24.71 | acts, judging it evil. Yet your specialness whispers, “Here is my | own beloved son, in whom I am well pleased.” Thus does the “son” |
| Tx:24.72 | and no encounter. One do you see outside yourself, your | own beloved son. The other rests within, His Father's Son, within |
| Tx:24.72 | purpose. And what you see will serve that purpose well and prove its | own reality to you. |
| Tx:25.29 | has much to offer to your peace and many chances to extend your | own forgiveness. Such its purpose is to those who want to see peace |
| Tx:25.33 | of God creates to bring him joy, sharing his Father's purpose in his | own creation that his joy might be increased and God's along with his. |
| Tx:25.36 | it and were mistaken for a little while. How better could your | own mistakes be brought to truth than by your willingness to bring |
| Tx:25.39 | in him His Call to you and answer by returning unto God what is His | own. |
| Tx:25.41 | no sacrifice that he be saved, for by his freedom will you gain your | own. To let his function be fulfilled is but the means to let yours |
| Tx:25.42 | to let His Will be done. In each of you, you see the picture of your | own belief in what the Will of God must be for you. In your |
| Tx:25.59 | joy. Accept the function that has been assigned to you in God's | Own plan to show His Sons that hell and Heaven are different, not the |
| Tx:25.68 | They must believe He shares their | own confusion and cannot avoid the vengeance that their own belief in |
| Tx:25.68 | shares their own confusion and cannot avoid the vengeance that their | own belief in justice must entail. And so they fear the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:25.68 | dead with lightning bolts torn from the “fires” of Heaven by God's | own angry hand. They do believe that Heaven is hell and are afraid of |
| Tx:25.72 | In God's | own justice does He recognize all you deserve but understands as well |
| Tx:25.76 | is not impartial and cannot fairly see another's rights because his | own have been obscured to him. |
| Tx:25.77 | deceives, but it cannot replace God's justice with a version of its | own. For only love is just and can perceive what justice must accord |
| Tx:26.2 | to keep itself complete. For if they joined, each one would lose its | own identity, and by their separation are their selves maintained. |
| Tx:26.3 | rest must lose this little part, remaining incomplete to keep its | own identity intact. In this perception of yourself, the body's loss |
| Tx:26.9 | justice? Could your function be a task apart and separate from His | Own? |
| Tx:26.16 | Think then how great your | own release will be when you are willing to receive correction for |
| Tx:26.29 | which was raised within the tiny spot that sin proclaimed to be its | own. And what was tiny then has soared into a magnitude of song in |
| Tx:26.37 | fact in what is there to hear where he is now? And how much can his | own delusions about time and place affect a change in where he really |
| Tx:26.38 | your ever-loving Father has ensured must come to you. And from your | own unfairness to yourself has He protected you. You cannot lose your |
| Tx:26.52 | grounds for hell. If this were so, would Heaven be opposed by its | own opposite, as real as it. Then would God's Will be split in two |
| Tx:26.58 | of God ask not too much but far too little. He would sacrifice his | own identity with everything to find a little treasure of his own. |
| Tx:26.58 | his own identity with everything to find a little treasure of his | own. And this he cannot do without a sense of isolation, loss, and |
| Tx:26.66 | belongs to each of them. No wishes lie between a brother and his | own. To get from one is to deprive them all. And yet to bless but one |
| Tx:26.77 | to your call! And think how holy he must be when in him sleeps your | own salvation with his freedom joined! However much you wish he be |
| Tx:26.80 | again, and Heaven's joy has been increased because what is its | own has been restored to it. The bloodied earth is cleansed, and the |
| Tx:26.81 | has been withheld so long. For They have come to gather in Their | Own. What has been locked is opened; what was held apart from light |
| Tx:26.86 | stands between Their shining innocence and your awareness it is your | own and equally belongs to every living thing along with you. God |
| Tx:26.88 | your attack on him attempts to get? Is it not retribution for your | own attack upon the Son of God you seek? Is it not safer to believe |
| Tx:26.88 | his innocence that someone else can take it from him, making it his | own. |
| Tx:27.2 | your release from sacrifice is his made manifest and shown to be his | own. But every pain you suffer do you see as proof that he is guilty |
| Tx:27.2 | the death you made for him. But in his innocence, you find your | own. |
| Tx:27.15 | eyes. And thus he must have overlooked it and removed it from his | own. Forgiveness cannot be for one and not the other. Who forgives is |
| Tx:27.18 | ancient calling of the Father to His Son, and of the Son unto his | own, will yet be the last trumpet that the world will ever hear. |
| Tx:27.21 | whom their brother's sacrifice and pain are seen to represent their | own serenity. Their helplessness and weakness represent the grounds |
| Tx:27.24 | you also know the Holy Spirit's mind and yours are one. And so your | own Identity is found. Yet must He work with what is given Him, and |
| Tx:27.25 | become the central target for correction, lest your errors and his | own be seen as one. Yours are mistakes, but his are sins and not the |
| Tx:27.26 | In this interpretation of correction, your | own mistakes you will not even see. The focus of correction has been |
| Tx:27.27 | your Self from being made aware of any function other than Its | own. And thus is healing given both of you. |
| Tx:27.28 | as Its only one. Here is the function given It conceived to be Its | own and not apart from that Its Giver keeps because it has been |
| Tx:27.35 | A Power wholly limitless has come, not to destroy, but to receive Its | own. There is no choice of function anywhere. The choice you fear to |
| Tx:27.51 | and will be brought to problems that you thought were not your | own. And it will also be apparent that your many different problems |
| Tx:27.58 | what they represent has no effects. And this it proves because its | own effects have come to take their place. It matters not the name by |
| Tx:27.62 | he knows not what he does, but what is done to him. Yet is his | own attack upon himself apparent still, for it is he who bears the |
| Tx:27.65 | Vengeance must have a focus. Otherwise is the avenger's knife in his | own hand and pointed to himself. And he must see it in another's hand |
| Tx:27.67 | The part you play in salvaging the world from condemnation is your | own escape. Forget not that the witness to the world of evil cannot |
| Tx:27.71 | They are one. The dreaming of the world is but a part of your | own dream you gave away and saw as if it were its start and ending |
| Tx:27.78 | protect it, and collect more senseless things that it can call its | own. It looks about for special bodies which can share its dream. |
| Tx:27.83 | your thoughts instead of you. It brings its vengeance, not your | own. It keeps you narrowly confined within a body, which it punishes |
| Tx:28.10 | You who have sought to lay a judgment on your | own Creator cannot understand it is not He Who laid a judgment on His |
| Tx:28.10 | quietness, see in the miracle a lesson in allowing Cause to have Its | own effects and doing nothing that would interfere. |
| Tx:28.11 | an instant's stillness when the memory of God returns to them. Their | own remembering is quiet now, and what has come to take its place |
| Tx:28.13 | God arises in the mind that has no fear to keep the memory away. Its | own remembering has gone. There is no past to keep its fearful image |
| Tx:28.13 | in gentle sounds of love the Son of God remembers from before his | own remembering came in between the present and the past to shut them |
| Tx:28.20 | sufferer. These are the happy dreams the miracle exchanges for your | own. It does not ask you make another—only that you see you made |
| Tx:28.22 | to show him that his wishes have been done. Thus does he fear his | own attack but sees it at another's hands. As victim, he is suffering |
| Tx:28.22 | suffering from its effects but not their cause. He authored not his | own attack, and he is innocent of what he caused. The miracle does |
| Tx:28.23 | abuse because the motives he has given it have they adopted as their | own. And hate it for the vengeance it would offer them. It is their |
| Tx:28.30 | your brother to be sick, for if he is, have you abandoned him to his | own dream by sharing it with him. He has not seen the cause of |
| Tx:28.41 | you become a passive figure in his dream instead of dreamer of your | own. Identity in dreams is meaningless because the dreamer and the |
| Tx:28.42 | His dreams are yours because you let them be. But if you took your | own away would he be free of them and of his own as well. Your dreams |
| Tx:28.42 | But if you took your own away would he be free of them and of his | own as well. Your dreams are witnesses to his, and his attest the |
| Tx:28.49 | the dream you share. And fearing it, you will not want to know your | own Identity because you think that it is fearful. And you will deny |
| Tx:28.56 | its frailty and littleness. And you despise its acts but not your | own. It sees and acts for you. It hears your voice. And it is frail |
| Tx:28.57 | body represents the gap between the little bit of mind you call your | own and all the rest of what is really yours. You hate it, yet you |
| Tx:28.63 | this purpose it cannot be sick. It will not join a purpose not your | own, and you have chosen that it not be sick. All miracles are based |
| Tx:29.6 | and everyone you meet and see in them a purpose not your | own. |
| Tx:29.13 | and asks you now that you will look on them and take them for your | own. He needs your help in giving them to all who walk apart |
| Tx:29.34 | his Father shines forever and to whom is all creation given as his | own. Because he has it is it given you, and where it lies in him, |
| Tx:29.40 | to die, then die it must unless it does not take this purpose as its | own. Change is the only thing that can be made a blessing here, where |
| Tx:29.49 | pursue them vainly in the dream because you want their power as your | own. |
| Tx:29.64 | in which their toys are real, nor recognize their wishes are their | own. |
| Tx:29.65 | and gives them to the toys instead. And their reality becomes his | own because they seem to save him from his thoughts. Yet do they keep |
| Tx:30.33 | you but your will; He speaks for you. In His divinity is but your | own. And all He knows is but your knowledge, saved for you that you |
| Tx:30.37 | you share. God turns to you to ask the world be saved, for by your | own salvation it is healed. And no one walks upon the earth but must |
| Tx:30.48 | keep hidden what you are, not from the Mind of God, but from your | own. The star shines still; the sky has never changed. But you, the |
| Tx:30.52 | looked upon as children's toys without a single meaning of their | own. See one in them, and you will see them all. See none in them, |
| Tx:30.61 | The real world still falls short of this, for this is God's | own purpose—only His, and yet completely shared and perfectly |
| Tx:30.69 | their awareness. Nor can they forget for long that it is but their | own. |
| Tx:30.79 | you, Father, for your perfect Son, and in his glory will I see my | own. |
| Tx:30.94 | he is healed are you made free of guilt, for his appearance is your | own to you. |
| Tx:31.3 | to learn is strong enough to teach you that your will is not your | own, your thoughts do not belong to you, and even you are someone |
| Tx:31.9 | as the ancient call to life and understood that it is but your | own. The Christ in you remembers God with all the certainty with |
| Tx:31.12 | what things mean and what their purpose is. Let us remember not our | own ideas of what the world is for. We do not know. Let every image |
| Tx:31.17 | answer is salvation found. The voice you hear in him is but your | own. What does he ask you for? And listen well! For he is asking what |
| Tx:31.20 | his hand in anger but in love, for in his progress do you count your | own. And we go separately along the way unless you keep him safely by |
| Tx:31.26 | realize. You never hate your brother for his sins, but only for your | own. Whatever form his sins appear to take, it but obscures the fact |
| Tx:31.28 | purpose must be in the body, not the mind. The body must act on its | own and motivate itself. If you are sin, you lock the mind within the |
| Tx:31.42 | how could you be made to travel on it, walking there without your | own reality at one with you? Forgive yourself your madness and forget |
| Tx:31.49 | is a concept but a thought to which its maker gives a meaning of his | own? Concepts maintain the world. But they cannot be used to |
| Tx:31.55 | share his guilt because you chose it for him in the image of your | own. While only he was treacherous before, now must you be condemned |
| Tx:31.57 | more than this. And in your suffering of any kind, you see your | own concealed desire to kill. |
| Tx:31.58 | self as learning goes along. Each one will show the changes in your | own relationships as your perception of yourself is changed. There |
| Tx:31.62 | here have you established what you are, as flesh or Spirit in your | own belief. If you choose flesh, you never will escape the body as |
| Tx:31.62 | belief. If you choose flesh, you never will escape the body as your | own reality, for you have chosen that you want it so. But choose the |
| Tx:31.78 | vision—that he see his innocence in all he looks upon and sees his | own salvation everywhere. He holds no concept of himself between his |
| Tx:31.82 | looks on them with seeing eyes and offers them forgiveness with his | own. Can you to whom God says, “Release My Son!” be tempted not to |
| Tx:31.88 | like Him are merely those who chose His strength instead of their | own weakness, seen apart from Him. They will redeem the world, for |
| Tx:31.92 | have him be, remembering that every choice you make establishes your | own identity as you will see it and believe it is. |
| Tx:31.93 | to hear my voice and listen to my words. I ask for nothing but your | own release. There is no place for hell within a world whose |
| Tx:31.96 | toward the light that shines beyond in perfect constancy. Give me my | own, for they belong to You. And can You fail in what is but Your |
| W1:13.2 | provides. The ego rushes in frantically to establish its | own “ideas” there, fearful that the void may otherwise be used to |
| W1:13.2 | fearful that the void may otherwise be used to demonstrate its | own unreality. And on this alone it is correct. |
| W1:14.1 | it. The world you see has nothing to do with reality. It is of your | own making, and it does not exist. |
| W1:14.7 | It does not matter. What God did not create can only be in your | own mind apart from His. Therefore, it has no meaning. In recognition |
| W1:16.1 | They are merely true or false. Those which are true create their | own likeness. Those which are false make theirs. |
| W1:22.1 | anger onto the world, he sees vengeance about to strike at him. His | own attack is thus perceived as self defense. This becomes an |
| W1:23.3 | of “external reality” is a pictorial representation of your | own attack thoughts. One can well ask if this can be called seeing. |
| W1:24.1 | is wrong. It is inevitable, then, that you will not serve your | own best interests. Yet they are your only goal in any situation |
| W1:24.2 | If you realized that you do not perceive your | own best interests, you could be taught what they are. But in the |
| W1:24.10 | I do not perceive my | own best interests in this situation, |
| W1:25.1 | is for. Therefore it is meaningless to you. Everything is for your | own best interests. That is what it is for; that is its purpose; that |
| W1:25.2 | in terms of ego goals. These goals have nothing to do with your | own best interests, because the ego is not you. This false |
| W1:26.1 | it now. You must therefore learn how it can be used for your | own best interests rather than against them. |
| W1:26.2 | invulnerable. Attack thoughts therefore make you vulnerable in your | own mind, which is where the attack thoughts are. Attack thoughts and |
| W1:26.3 | that you are vulnerable, their effect is to weaken you in your | own eyes. Thus they have attacked your perception of yourself. And |
| W1:26.4 | that vulnerability or invulnerability is the result of your | own thoughts. Nothing except your thoughts can attack you. Nothing |
| W1:28.5 | gain vision from just that table if you could withdraw all your | own ideas from it and look upon it with a completely open mind. It |
| W1:28.6 | them to let their purpose be revealed to you instead of placing your | own judgment upon them. |
| W1:31.4 | you are making a declaration of independence in the name of your | own freedom. And in your freedom lies the freedom of the world. |
| W1:32.2 | exercises, try to introduce the thought that both are in your | own imagination. |
| W1:34.1 | Peace of mind is clearly an internal matter. It must begin with your | own thoughts and then extend outward. It is from your peace of mind |
| W1:37.1 | or why you are here. Your purpose is to see the world through your | own holiness. Thus are you and the world blessed together. No one |
| W1:37.9 | of your holiness immediately that you may learn to keep it in your | own awareness. |
| W1:38.6 | want to vary this procedure and add some relevant thoughts of your | own. You might like, for example, to include thoughts such as: |
| W1:39.3 | that your holiness is the salvation of the world. What about your | own salvation? You cannot give what you do not have. A savior must be |
| W1:39.3 | to the salvation of the world. As you apply the exercises to your | own world, the whole world stands to benefit. |
| W1:39.4 | end of hell. Your holiness is the salvation of the world and your | own. How could you to whom your holiness belongs be excluded from it? |
| W1:39.7 | suitable subjects for today's exercises. It is imperative for your | own salvation that you see them differently. And it is your blessing |
| W1:41.5 | the idle thoughts of the world. Try to enter very deeply into your | own mind, keeping it clear of any thoughts that might divert your |
| W1:42.1 | will see because it is the Will of God. It is His strength, not your | own, that gives you power. And it is His gift to you, rather than |
| W1:42.1 | that gives you power. And it is His gift to you, rather than your | own, which offers vision to you. |
| W1:42.7 | at the amount of course-related understanding some of your | own thoughts contain. Let them come without censoring unless you |
| W1:43.8 | let whatever relevant thoughts occur to you add to the idea in your | own personal way. Thoughts such as: |
| W1:43.9 | I see the world as blessed. The world can show me myself. I see my | own thoughts, which are like God's. |
| W1:45.6 | a fairly short period in thinking a few relevant thoughts of your | own, keeping the idea in mind as you do so. After you have added some |
| W1:45.6 | you do so. After you have added some four or five thoughts of your | own, repeat the idea again, and tell yourself gently: |
| W1:47.1 | If you are trusting your | own strength, you have every reason to be apprehensive, anxious, and |
| W1:47.4 | Today we will try to reach past your | own weakness to the Source of real strength. Four five-minute |
| W1:47.6 | Now try to slip past all concerns related to your | own sense of inadequacy. It is obvious that any situation that causes |
| W1:47.7 | The recognition of your | own frailty is a necessary step in the correction of your errors, but |
| W1:48.3 | The presence of fear is a sure sign that you are trusting in your | own strength. The awareness that there is nothing to fear shows that |
| W1:51.4 | see when I have judged it amiss? What I see is the projection of my | own errors of thought. I do not understand what I see because it is |
| W1:52.4 | [8] My mind is preoccupied with past thoughts. I see only my | own thoughts, and my mind is preoccupied with the past. What, then, |
| W1:53.5 | it with me. Why should I continue to suffer from the effects of my | own insane thoughts when the perfection of creation is my home? Let |
| W1:54.3 | thought. Let me look on the world I see as the representation of my | own state of mind. I know that my state of mind can change. And so I |
| W1:55.3 | a reflection of the Love of God and the love of His Son. It is my | own attack thoughts which give rise to this picture. My loving |
| W1:55.5 | [24] I do not perceive my | own best interests. How could I recognize my own best interests when |
| W1:55.5 | I do not perceive my own best interests. How could I recognize my | own best interests when I do not know who I am? What I think are my |
| W1:55.5 | am willing to follow the Guide God has given me to find out what my | own best interests are, recognizing that I cannot perceive them by |
| W1:56.2 | for the world I see. But God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My | own real thoughts will teach me what it is. |
| W1:56.6 | [30] God is in everything I see because God is in my mind. In my | own mind, behind all my insane thoughts of separation and attack, is |
| W1:59.3 | [42] God is my strength. Vision is His gift. Let me not look to my | own eyes to see today. Let me be willing to exchange my pitiful |
| W1:60.3 | [47] God is the Strength in which I trust. It is not my | own strength through which I forgive. It is through the strength of |
| W1:62.3 | Remember that in every attack you call upon your | own weakness, while every time you forgive you call upon the strength |
| W1:65.2 | to the door of peace, which you have closed upon yourself, in your | own hands. It gives you the answer to all the searching you have done |
| W1:65.11 | and the extent to which you really want salvation in spite of your | own foolish ideas to the contrary. |
| W1:67.4 | trying today to undo your definition of God and replace it with His | own. We are also trying to emphasize that you are part of His |
| W1:68.4 | is as sure that those who hold grievances will redefine God in their | own image as it is certain that God created them like Himself and |
| W1:70.1 | the source of guilt. You see neither guilt nor salvation as in your | own mind and nowhere else. When you realize that all guilt is solely |
| W1:70.3 | however, be clear to you why the recognition that guilt is in your | own mind entails the realization that salvation is there as well. |
| W1:70.7 | be a good time to lay aside for each of them and adhere to your | own decision as closely as possible. |
| W1:70.14 | yourself that your salvation comes from you and nothing but your | own thoughts can hamper your progress. You are free from all external |
| W1:70.15 | of me can hold me back. Within me is the world's salvation and my | own. |
| W1:71.4 | The role assigned to your | own mind in this plan, then, is simply to determine what other than |
| W1:71.9 | in the first. And in the first is your full release from all your | own insane attempts and mad proposals to free yourself. They have led |
| W1:76.5 | up to hide what really suffers. It would not understand it is its | own enemy, that it attacks itself and wants to die. It is from this |
| W1:77.5 | granted. You have asked for the salvation of the world and for your | own. You have requested that you be given the means by which this is |
| W1:78.12 | the role assigned to us as part of God's salvation plan, and not our | own. Temptation falls away when we allow each one we meet to save us |
| W1:79.2 | Everyone in this world seems to have his | own special problems. Yet they are all the same and must be |
| W1:84.2 | recognize my reality today. I will worship no idols nor raise my | own self-concepts to replace my Self. I am in the likeness of my |
| W1:86.5 | hope of salvation from my awareness. I would no longer defeat my | own best interests in this insane way. I would accept God's plan for |
| W1:88.7 | at work in this. Let me allow God's laws to work in this and not my | own. |
| W1:91.13 | you in this practice period in which you share a purpose like Their | own. Theirs is the light in which you will see miracles because Their |
| W1:92.9 | and where they meet, your Self stands ready to embrace you as Its | own. Such is the meeting place we try today to find and rest in, for |
| W1:93.1 | struck with horror so intense that you would rush to death by your | own hand, living on after seeing this being impossible. |
| W1:93.11 | and sinfulness you have made to replace it. Let it come into its | own. Here you are. This is you. And light and joy and peace abide in |
| W1:95.20 | within his mind, the gentle rustling of the wings of peace. Your | own acknowledgment you are One Self, united with your Father, is a |
| W1:96.13 | Then seek its thoughts, and claim them as your | own. |
| W1:96.14 | These are your | own real thoughts you have denied, and let your mind go wandering in |
| W1:98.3 | they will do what it is given them to do. They do not doubt their | own ability because they know their function will be filled |
| W1:99.5 | exactly as it was received of Him within the Mind of God and in your | own. It is apart from time in that its Source is timeless. Yet it |
| W1:99.6 | thought whose function is to save by giving you its function as your | own. |
| W1:104.2 | altar where God's gifts belong. These are the gifts which are our | own in truth. His are the gifts which we inherited before time was |
| W1:105.7 | them to yourself. And here you must return to claim them as your | own. Think of your “enemies” a little while, and tell each one as he |
| W1:107.8 | merely ask for what belongs to us, that we may recognize it as our | own. |
| W1:110.4 | split between your mind and other minds, and only unity within your | own. |
| W1:118.3 | [106] Let me be still and listen to the truth. Let mine | own feeble voice be still, and let me hear the mighty Voice of truth |
| W1:121.4 | upon the world with sightless eyes and shrieks as it beholds its | own projections rising to attack its miserable parody of life. It |
| W1:121.7 | Each unforgiving mind presents you with an opportunity to teach your | own how to forgive itself. Each one awaits release from hell through |
| W1:121.7 | hope, but you become its hope. And as its hope, do you become your | own. The unforgiving mind must learn through your forgiveness that it |
| W1:121.8 | you can learn today to take the key to happiness and use it on your | own behalf. We will devote ten minutes in the morning and at night |
| W1:122.7 | of any value to a mind which has received what God has given as its | own. God wills salvation be received today and that the intricacies |
| W1:124.9 | you. And you will see Christ's face upon it, in reflection of your | own. |
| W1:124.10 | Perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you will see your | own transfiguration in the glass this holy half an hour will hold out |
| W1:124.11 | light you see belongs to you, the loveliness you look on is your | own. Count this half hour as your gift to God, in certainty that His |
| W1:125.2 | mind and at his side to lead him surely to his Father's house by his | own will, forever free as God's. He is not led by force, but only |
| W1:125.5 | of his dreams, regardless of his madness that his will is not his | own. |
| W1:126.2 | them, and their appeals for help are not in any way related to your | own. You further think that they can sin without affecting your |
| W1:126.4 | suffer when it is withheld. The sin which you forgive is not your | own. Someone apart from you committed it. And if you then are |
| W1:127.4 | difference in what you are and what love is. Love's meaning is your | own, and shared by God Himself. For what you are is what He is. There |
| W1:127.8 | mind wherever you give up a false belief, a dark illusion of your | own reality and what love means. He will shine through your idle |
| W1:130.8 | searching for the other world by asking for a strength beyond your | own, and recognize what it is you seek. You do not want illusions. |
| W1:131.8 | and its tragic joys. God made no contradictions. What denies its | own existence and attacks itself is not of Him. He did not make two |
| W1:131.13 | I seek I did not make alone. The thoughts I want to think are not my | own. |
| W1:132.9 | is true because the world does not exist. And if it is indeed your | own imagining, then you can loose it from all things you ever thought |
| W1:132.17 | it was. For I am real because the world is not, and I would know my | own reality. |
| W1:132.19 | send out these thoughts to bless the world. But you will sense your | own release, although you may not fully understand as yet that you |
| W1:132.21 | I loose the world from all I thought it was and choose my | own reality instead. |
| W1:133.8 | because when you deny his right to everything, you have denied your | own. You therefore will not recognize the things you really have, |
| W1:133.11 | appear as sins to him because he looks upon the tarnished as his | own—the rust a sign of deep unworthiness within himself. He who |
| W1:133.11 | He who would still preserve the ego's goals and serve them as his | own makes no mistakes according to the dictates of his guide. This |
| W1:133.14 | which come with nothing to find everything and claim it as their | own. We will attempt to reach this state today, with self-deception |
| W1:134.13 | thought which it reflects. It is as alien to the world as is your | own reality. And yet it joins your mind with the reality in you. |
| W1:135.1 | he thought he was attacked, that the attack is real, and that his | own defense can save himself? And herein lies the folly of defense— |
| W1:135.7 | what endowed the body with the right to serve you thus except your | own belief? It is your mind which gave the body all the functions |
| W1:135.12 | plans which it receives through listening to Wisdom that is not its | own. It waits until it has been taught what should be done and then |
| W1:135.14 | is not free to be a means of helping in a plan which far exceeds its | own protection and which needs its service for a little while. In |
| W1:135.15 | They are the means by which a frightened mind would undertake its | own protection at the cost of truth. This is not difficult to realize |
| W1:135.16 | It does not think that it will be provided for unless it makes its | own provisions. Time becomes a future emphasis to be controlled by |
| W1:135.21 | you become a light which Heaven gratefully acknowledges to be its | own. And it will lead you on in ways appointed for your happiness |
| W1:136.4 | that you must forget you made it, so it seems to be external to your | own intent—a happening beyond your state of mind, an outcome with a |
| W1:136.5 | in making your “reality” which makes defenses seem to be beyond your | own control. But what you have forgot can be remembered, given |
| W1:136.7 | whole again. And yet you have forgotten that they stand but for your | own decision of what should be real, to take the place of what is |
| W1:136.8 | you make, a plan you lay when for an instant truth arises in your | own deluded mind and all your world appears to totter and prepare to |
| W1:136.11 | Such is your planning for your | own defense. And you believe that Heaven quails before such mad |
| W1:137.3 | alone. In sickness must he be apart and separate. But healing is his | own decision to be one again and to accept his Self with all its |
| W1:137.10 | His life becomes your | own as you extend the little help He asks in freeing you from |
| W1:138.8 | anxiety so strong that it will not relinquish its ideas about its | own protection. It must be saved from salvation, threatened to be |
| W1:139.7 | is certain. It is set forever in the holy Mind of God and in your | own. It is so far beyond all doubt and question that to ask what it |
| W1:140.8 | It is not further from us than ourselves. It is as near to us as our | own thoughts—so close it is impossible to lose. We need but seek |
| W1:R4.9 | Lord of Hosts be yours, as He Himself has willed it be. And as His | own completion joins with Him, so will He join with you who are |
| W1:151.5 | that it condemns. It is within itself it sees the guilt. It is its | own despair it sees in you. |
| W1:151.6 | its voice. The witnesses it sends to prove to you its evil is your | own are false and speak with certainty of what they do not know. Your |
| W1:151.6 | and let the Voice for God alone be Judge of what is worthy of your | own belief. |
| W1:152.1 | No one can suffer loss unless it be his | own decision. No one suffers pain except his choice elects this state |
| W1:152.1 | these are the outcomes that he wants. And no one dies without his | own consent. Nothing occurs but represents your wish, and nothing is |
| W1:152.4 | a vast array of choices which do not appear to be entirely your | own. And thus the truth appears to have some aspects that belie |
| W1:152.8 | accept what we have made as what it is. The power of decision is our | own. Decide but to accept your rightful place as co-creator of the |
| W1:152.10 | like to Himself in power and in love. The power of decision is our | own. And we accept of Him that which we are and humbly recognize the |
| W1:152.11 | right to Heaven and release from hell are joyously accepted as our | own. Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false and |
| W1:152.13 | The power of decision is my | own. This day I will accept myself as what my Father's Will created |
| W1:153.6 | maintains that choice is always made between His strength and your | own weakness seen apart from Him. Defenselessness can never be |
| W1:153.10 | ones who are among the chosen ones of God by His election and their | own as well? |
| W1:153.11 | has elected all, but few have come to realize His Will is but their | own. And while you fail to teach what you have learned, salvation |
| W1:153.11 | As they take it from your hands, so will you recognize it as your | own. |
| W1:153.14 | pitiful defense against a vengeance he cannot escape, were but his | own deluded fantasy. God's ministers have come to waken him from the |
| W1:154.2 | chooses and accepts your part for you. He does not work without your | own consent, but He is not deceived in what you are and listens only |
| W1:154.3 | It is through His ability to hear One Voice Which is His | own that you become aware at last there is One Voice in you. And that |
| W1:154.8 | understand he has received until he gives. For in the giving is his | own acceptance of what he received. |
| W1:154.9 | by you as well. For thus do you identify with Him and claim your | own. |
| W1:154.11 | may be at last delivered. And He needs our will united with His | own, that we may be the true receivers of the gifts He gives. |
| W1:154.12 | can this mean to you until you have identified with him and with his | own? |
| W1:155.1 | are quiet. And the ones who walk the world as you do recognize their | own. Yet those who have not yet perceived the way will recognize you |
| W1:155.2 | are seeking for a place where they can be illusions and avoid their | own reality. Yet when they find their own reality is even here, then |

| W1:155.14 | how great His trust, how limitless His Love. In your name and His | own, which are the same, we practice gladly with this thought today: |
| W1:156.5 | for they recognize Who walks with you. The light you carry is their | own, and thus they see in you their holiness, saluting you as savior |
| W1:157.8 | start today with the experience this day holds out to you to be your | own. |
| W1:159.1 | has not received. To give a thing requires first you have it in your | own possession. Here the laws of Heaven and the world agree. But here |
| W1:160.4 | is unsuited to the home which God provided for His Son? Is fear His | own, created in His likeness? Is it fear that love completes and is |
| W1:160.6 | in and took no alien thought to be Itself. And It will call Its | own unto Itself, in recognition of what is Its own. |
| W1:160.6 | And It will call Its own unto Itself, in recognition of what is Its | own. |
| W1:160.7 | given him your rightful place. Yet is your Self as certain of Its | own as God is of His Son. He cannot be confused about creation. He is |
| W1:160.9 | what belongs to Him. His vision sees no strangers, but beholds His | own and joyously unites with them. They see Him as a stranger, for |
| W1:161.8 | as fear's symbol. And he will attack because what he beholds is his | own fear external to himself, poised to attack and howling to unite |
| W1:161.12 | your sins, whose sacred hands can take the nails which pierce your | own away and lift the crown of thorns which you have placed upon your |
| W1:161.15 | upon, for He will hear the Voice of God in you and answer in your | own. Behold him now whom you had seen as merely flesh and bone and |
| W1:162.3 | Holy indeed is he who makes these words his | own—arising with them in his mind, recalling them throughout the |
| W1:163.8 | and we renounce it now in every form for their salvation and our | own as well. God made not death. Whatever form it takes must |
| W1:164.7 | we see will but increase our joy because its holiness reflects our | own. We stand forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the world |
| W1:164.7 | forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the world forgiven in our | own. |
| W1:164.8 | offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving vision, now our | own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go all |
| W1:165.1 | What makes this world seem real except your | own denial of the truth which lies beyond? What but your thoughts of |
| W1:166.3 | may become, however urgently he may be called to claim them as his | own, is being pressed to treachery against himself. He must deny |
| W1:166.9 | you may not be your identity. Perhaps God's Word is truer than your | own. Perhaps His gifts to you are real. Perhaps He has not wholly |
| W1:166.12 | your will when you accept these gifts and recognize they are your | own. |
| W1:167.4 | qualities the source does not contain, becoming different from their | own origin, apart from it in kind as well as distance, time, and form. |
| W1:167.6 | that are and cannot give them attributes it lacks nor change its | own eternal, mindful state. It cannot make the physical. What seems |
| W1:167.12 | now and will forever be. A sleeping mind must waken as it sees its | own perfection mirroring the Lord of Life so perfectly it fades into |
| W1:168.5 | receive what has been given us. Our faith lies in the Giver, not our | own acceptance. We acknowledge our mistakes, but He to Whom all error |
| W1:168.6 | Him we pray today, returning but the words He gave to us through His | Own Voice, His Word, His Love: |
| W1:170.3 | You make what you defend against, and by your | own defense against it, is it real and inescapable. Lay down your |
| W1:170.11 | with those of fear. Yet must the worshipers of fear perceive their | own confusion in fear's “enemy,” its cruelty as now a part of love. |
| W1:R5.11 | I save the world. The Self from Which I call to you is but your | own. To Him we go together. Take your brother's hand, for this is not |
| W1:R5.12 | established it. You are His Son, completing His extension in your | own. We practice but an ancient truth we knew before illusion seemed |
| W1:171.3 | [152] The power of decision is my | own. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:181.1 | becoming blocks to your awareness of the Self that lies beyond your | own mistakes and past his seeming sins as well as yours. |
| W1:181.5 | narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn our eyes upon our | own mistakes, which we will magnify and call our “sins.” |
| W1:181.9 | of Christ inevitably ours. And the love He feels for us becomes our | own as well. This will become the only thing we see reflected in the |
| W1:182.5 | It is this Child in you your Father knows as His | own Son. It is this Child Who knows His Father. He desires to go home |
| W1:183.1 | no holier than yours. To call upon His Name is but to call upon your | own. A father gives his son his name, and thus identifies the son |
| W1:183.7 | that we desire to see; of everything that we would call our | own. |
| W1:183.10 | you found. You can remember what the world forgot and offer it your | own remembering. You can accept today the part you play in its |
| W1:183.10 | You can accept today the part you play in its salvation and your | own as well, and both can be accomplished perfectly. |
| W1:183.11 | Son calls on his Father's Name. His Father's Thoughts become his | own. He makes his claim to all his Father gave, is giving still, and |
| W1:184.1 | you see. Each one becomes a separate entity, identified by its | own name. By this you carve it out of unity. By this you designate |
| W1:184.8 | call him, for his mind consents to take the name you give him as his | own. And thus his unity is twice denied, for you perceive him |
| W1:184.15 | different names is but a shadow we have tried to cast across Your | Own Reality. And we are glad and thankful we were wrong. All our |
| W1:185.10 | sincerity. For thus you reach to what they really want and join your | own intent with what they seek above all things, perhaps unknown to |
| W1:185.12 | you it was created, given you by its Creator and established as His | own eternal gift. How can you fail when you but ask for what He wills |
| W1:186.1 | Here is the thought of true humility which holds no function as your | own but that which has been given you. It offers your acceptance of a |
| W1:187.2 | for proof that when you give ideas away, you strengthen them in your | own mind. Perhaps the form in which the thought seems to appear is |
| W1:188.1 | you from your native home and stayed with you because it is your | own. It is the only thing you bring with you from Him Who is your |
| W1:189.2 | salvation in you and protects the light in you in which it sees its | own. It offers you its flowers and its snow in thankfulness for your |
| W1:189.10 | answered us. We will not interfere. Salvation's ways are not our | own, for they belong to You. And it is unto You we look for them. Our |
| W1:189.10 | would find and follow. And we ask but that Your Will, which is our | own as well, be done in us and in the world, that it becomes a part |
| W1:190.6 | and forever. And would you deny a little corner of your mind its | own inheritance and keep it as a hospital for pain, a sickly place |
| W1:191.2 | your world? What have you done that this is what you see? Deny your | own Identity, and this is what remains. You look on chaos and |
| W1:191.3 | Deny your | own Identity, and you will not escape the madness which induced this |
| W1:191.3 | thought which mocks creation and which laughs at God. Deny your | own Identity, and you assail the universe alone, without a friend, a |
| W1:191.3 | tiny particle of dust against the legions of your enemies. Deny your | own Identity and look on evil, sin, and death. And watch despair |
| W1:191.13 | They must await your | own release. They stay in chains till you are free. They cannot see |
| W1:191.13 | until you have denied its hold on you. They die till you accept your | own eternal life. You are the holy Son of God Himself. Remember this |
| W1:192.1 | and attack? Therefore you have a function in the world in its | own terms. For who can understand a language far beyond his simple |
| W1:193.12 | all the gifts His Love brings with it. Would you now renounce your | own salvation? Would you fail to learn the simple lessons Heaven's |
| W1:195.10 | God gives thanks to you, His Son, for being what you are—His | own completion and the source of love, along with Him. Your gratitude |
| W1:196.1 | a brother saves yourself. And you will understand his safety is your | own, and in his healing you are healed. |
| W1:196.8 | once you understand it is impossible that you be hurt except by your | own thoughts, the fear of God must disappear. You do not now believe |
| W1:197.1 | free your mind from the belief in outside force pitted against your | own. You make attempts at kindness and forgiveness. Yet you turn them |
| W1:197.5 | can be given only to yourself, and what belongs to God must be His | own. Yet you will never realize His gifts are sure, eternal, |
| W1:198.5 | teach, instead of trying to dismiss His words and substitute your | own in place of His? |
| W1:198.10 | Only my condemnation injures me. Only my | own forgiveness sets me free. |
| W1:200.7 | Son, who cannot make a world in opposition to God's Will and to his | own, which is the same as His. What could he hope to find in such a |
| W1:203.1 | [183] I call upon God's Name and on my | own. The Name of God is my deliverance from every thought of evil and |
| W1:203.1 | deliverance from every thought of evil and of sin, because it is my | own as well as His. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W1:210.1 | [190] I choose the joy of God instead of pain. Pain is my | own idea. It is not a thought of God, but one I thought apart from |
| W1:213.1 | I am set free. And so I choose to learn His lessons and forget my | own. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W2:I.6 | one we made and take that world to be the full replacement of our | own. |
| W2:227.1 | exists. And I am free because I was mistaken and did not affect my | own reality at all by my illusions. Now I give them up and lay them |
| W2:229.1 | I seek my | own Identity and find it in these words: “Love, Which created me, is |
| W2:WS.2 | to recognize its oneness. Now it did not know itself and thought its | own Identity was lost. |
| W2:233.1 | today. I would have none of mine. In place of them, give me Your | own. I give You all my acts as well, that I may do Your will instead |
| W2:240.1 | what the form in which it may appear. It witnesses but to your | own illusions of yourself. Let us not be deceived today. We are the |
| W2:240.2 | may understand his holiness and feel the love for him that is Your | own as well. |
| W2:247.1 | Brother, come and let me look on you. Your loveliness reflects my | own. Your sinlessness is mine. You stand forgiven, and I stand with |
| W2:247.2 | created them and gave them all to me as part of You and my | own Self as well. Today I honor You through them, and thus I hope |
| W2:248.2 | Father, I am as You created me. Now is Your Love remembered and my | own. Now do I understand that they are one. |
| W2:253.2 | Which rules the universe, is but Your will in perfect union with my | own, which can but offer glad assent to Yours that It may be extended |
| W2:264.1 | I look upon, the sounds I hear, and every hand that reaches for my | own. In You time disappears and place becomes a meaningless belief. |
| W2:264.1 | Itself. Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to You in Your | own Name today, to be at peace within Your everlasting Love. |
| W2:266.2 | This day we enter into paradise, calling upon God's name and on our | own, acknowledging our Self in each of us, united in the holy Love of |
| W2:267.2 | Let me attend Your Answer, not my | own. Father, my heart is beating in the peace the Heart of Love |
| W2:269.2 | We are one because of Him Who is the Son of God, of Him Who is our | own Identity. |
| W2:270.1 | And now his will is one with Yours. His function now is but Your | own, and every thought except Your own is gone. |
| W2:270.1 | His function now is but Your own, and every thought except Your | own is gone. |
| W2:273.2 | the peace You gave Your Son is with me still, in quietness and in my | own eternal love for You. |
| W2:276.2 | I would speak to all my brothers, who are given me to cherish as my | own, as I am loved and blessed and saved by You. |
| W2:279.2 | my faith to them. My Father loves the Son Whom He created as His | own. Would You withhold the gifts You gave to me? |
| W2:288.1 | let me honor him who bears Your Name and so remember that It is my | own. |
| W2:289.2 | not look upon a past that is not there. For You have offered me Your | own replacement in a present world the past has left untouched and |
| W2:290.1 | vision come to me this very day. What I perceive without God's | own correction for the sight I made is frightening and painful to |
| W2:299.1 | My holiness is far beyond my | own ability to understand or know. Yet God my Father, Who created it, |
| W2:302.1 | had forgot the Son whom You created. Now we see that darkness is our | own imagining and light is there for us to look upon. Christ's vision |
| W2:302.1 | that I may look upon its holiness and understand it but reflects my | own. |
| W2:309.1 | forever and forever. I, His Son, whose will is limitless as is His | own, can will no change in this. For to deny my Father's Will is to |
| W2:309.1 | will no change in this. For to deny my Father's Will is to deny my | own. To look within is but to find my will as God created it and as |
| W2:WILJ.3 | return to peace, security and happiness, and union with your | own Identity. |
| W2:315.1 | or mercy, and my mind perceives this gift and takes it as its | own. And everyone who finds the way to God becomes my savior, |
| W2:WICR.2 | God's thoughts are given all the power that Their | own Creator has. For He would add to Love by its extension. Thus His |
| W2:WICR.5 | in the name of its Creator, Holiness Itself, Whose holiness His | own creation shares; Whose holiness is still a part of us. |
| W2:323.1 | in to his awareness, healing him of pain and giving him Your | own eternal joy. Such is the “sacrifice” You ask of me, and one I |
| W2:325.1 | outward, looked upon, esteemed as real, and guarded as one's | own. From insane wishes comes an insane world. From judgment comes a |
| W2:328.1 | is there any second to His Will. To join with His is but to find our | own. And since our will is His, it is to Him that we must go to |
| W2:330.1 | its freedom and its joy, as is the Will of God united with its | own. The Self which God created cannot sin and therefore cannot |
| W2:332.1 | mind. Without forgiveness is the mind in chains, believing in its | own futility. Yet with forgiveness does the light shine through the |
| W2:335.1 | this. My brother's sinlessness shows me that I would look upon my | own. And I will see it, having chosen to behold my brother in its |
| W2:344.1 | This is Your law, my Father, not my | own. I have not understood what giving means and thought to save what |
| W2:346.1 | forgetting all the foolish toys I made as I behold Your glory and my | own. |
| W2:347.1 | Him judge today. I do not know my will, but He is sure it is Your | own. And He will speak for me, and call Your miracle to come to me. |
| W2:348.1 | What can I fear when You created me in holiness as perfect as Your | own? |
| W2:349.1 | do I obey the law of love and give what I would find and make my | own. It will be given me because I have chosen it as the gift I want |
| W2:WAI.1 | I am His holy sinlessness itself, for in my purity abides His | own. |
| W2:352.1 | would hear Your Voice and find Your peace today. For I would love my | own Identity and find in Him the memory of You. |
| W2:354.1 | I have no self except the Christ in me. I have no purpose but His | own. And He is like His Father. Thus must I be one with You as well |
| W2:356.1 | answer to Your Son because to call Your Name is but to call his | own. |
| W2:359.1 | Father, today we will forgive Your world and let creation be Your | own. We have misunderstood all things. But we have not made sinners |
| W2:FL.3 | God has given us. It is His ending to the dream we seek, and not our | own. For all that we forgive we will not fail to recognize as part of |
| W2:FL.4 | our function to remember Him on earth, as it is given us to be His | own completion in reality. So let us not forget our goal is shared. |
| W2:FL.6 | and ask Him to help us to learn His lessons through the Voice of His | own Teacher. Would He hurt His Son? Or would He rush to answer him |
| W2:FL.6 | I have is his”? Be certain He will answer thus, for these are His | own Words to you. And more than that can no one ever have, for in |
| W2:E.3 | Word that God has given you. His is the Word you chose to be your | own. |
| M:I.5 | How are they chosen? What do they do? How can they work out their | own salvation and the salvation of the world? This manual attempts to |

| M:4.1 | characteristic of all teachers of God who have advanced in their | own learning. In this respect they are all alike. |
| M:4.4 | Power has once been experienced, it is impossible to trust one's | own petty strength again. Who would attempt to fly with the tiny |
| M:4.7 | one in which the teacher of God feels called upon to sacrifice his | own best interests on behalf of truth. He has not realized as yet how |
| M:4.9 | not want the valueless and that he did want the valuable. Yet his | own sorting-out was meaningless in teaching him the difference. The |
| M:4.15 | Him Who is their Source. And so their will, which always was His | own, is free to be itself. |
| M:5.5 | agents seem to be ministering to him, yet they but give form to his | own choice. He chooses them to bring tangible form to his desires. |
| M:5.9 | salvation. They ask the patient for forgiveness for God's Son in his | own name. They stand for the alternative. With God's Word in their |
| M:5.10 | function of God's teachers—to see no will as separate from their | own, nor theirs as separate from God's. |
| M:7.2 | has given the problem to One Who cannot fail, and recognize that his | own uncertainty is not love but fear and therefore hate. His position |
| M:8.2 | different from other minds, with different interests of its | own and able to gratify its needs at the expense of others. |
| M:9.2 | learns one lesson with increasing thoroughness. He does not make his | own decisions; he asks his Teacher for His answer, and it is this he |
| M:9.2 | easier and easier as the teacher of God learns to give up his | own judgment. The giving up of judgment, the obvious prerequisite for |
| M:10.5 | to Him Whose judgment he has chosen now to trust instead of his | own. Now he makes no mistakes. His Guide is sure. And where he came |
| M:12.1 | His perception of Himself is based upon God's Judgment, not His | own. Thus does He share God's Will and bring His Thoughts to still |
| M:14.5 | you do, you can do. Do not be arrogant and say you cannot learn His | own curriculum. His Word says otherwise. His Will be done. It cannot |

| M:16.2 | do apply, although each one must use them as best he can in his | own way. Routines as such are dangerous because they easily become |
| M:16.2 | as such are dangerous because they easily become gods in their | own right, threatening the very goals for which they were set up. |
| M:17.1 | in any form, God's teacher can be sure that he is strengthening his | own belief in sin and has condemned himself. He can be sure as well |
| M:17.9 | Now is escape impossible until you see you have responded to your | own interpretation which you have projected on an outside world. Let |
| M:18.5 | it thus becomes essential for the teacher of God to let all his | own mistakes be corrected. If he senses even the faintest hint of |
| M:19.5 | Pray for God's justice, and do not confuse His mercy with your | own insanity. Perception can make whatever picture the mind desires |
| M:21.3 | not exist or seeks for illusions in his heart, all this becomes his | own. The power of his decision offers it to him, as he requests. |
| M:21.5 | All these are judgments which have no value. They are his | own, coming from a shabby self-perception that he would leave behind. |
| M:21.5 | to you, but offer them in confidence. They are far wiser than your | own. God's teachers have God's Word behind their symbols. And He |
| M:22.5 | he has forgotten Who he is. Another's sickness thus becomes his | own. In allowing this to happen, he has identified with another's ego |
| M:23.3 | Sonship is also yours, and his completed learning guarantees your | own success. Is he still available for help? What did he say about |
| M:24.3 | required of him, it would merely limit his usefulness as well as his | own decision-making. Our course is not concerned with any concept |
| M:24.3 | of the course merely because it advocates a long-held belief of his | own. |
| M:24.5 | in some way which is detrimental to his pupil's advance or his | own. Reinterpretation would then be recommended because it would be |
| M:26.2 | directly, retaining no trace of worldly limits and remembering their | own Identity perfectly. These might be called the teachers of |
| M:27.5 | evident. Death is indeed the death of God if He is Love. And now His | own creation must stand in fear of Him. He is not Father but |
| M:28.5 | forever and forever, and we wish for nothing but His Will to be our | own. Illusions of another will are lost, for unity of purpose has |
| M:29.3 | core of the curriculum. The imagined usurping of functions not your | own is the basis of fear. The whole world you see reflects the |
| M:29.3 | the Holy Spirit's guidance is necessary merely because of your | own inadequacies. It is the way out of hell for you. |
| M:29.6 | accordingly. God would be cruel if He let your words replace His | Own. A loving father does not let his child harm himself or choose |

| Tx:9.101 | you are. Your Father created you wholly without sin, wholly without | pain, and wholly without suffering of any kind. If you deny Him, you |
| Tx:9.101 | without suffering of any kind. If you deny Him, you bring sin, | pain, and suffering into your own mind because of the power He gave |
| Tx:9.104 | perceive them as guilty. If God knows His Children as wholly without | pain, it is blasphemous to perceive suffering anywhere. If God knows |
| Tx:10.23 | never suffer in any way, for that is not God's Will for His Son. | Pain is not of Him, for He knows no attack and His peace surrounds |
| Tx:10.26 | The way is not hard, but it is very different. Yours is the way of | pain, of which God knows nothing. That way is hard indeed and very |
| Tx:10.63 | believing that the power of the Son of God is born of sacrifice and | pain. The God of the resurrection demands nothing, for He does not |
| Tx:11.86 | govern it are the laws of death. Children are born into it through | pain and in pain. Their growth is attended by suffering, and they |
| Tx:11.86 | are the laws of death. Children are born into it through pain and in | pain. Their growth is attended by suffering, and they learn of sorrow |
| Tx:12.16 | is the loving mind that thought it made them in anger. And the | pain in this mind is so apparent when it is uncovered that its need |
| Tx:12.17 | And yet he is not crucified. Here is both his | pain and his healing, for the Holy Spirit's vision is merciful, and |
| Tx:12.17 | sanity all your hurt, and let Him heal you. Do not leave any spot of | pain hidden from His light, and search your minds carefully for any |
| Tx:12.22 | your peace lies in His Oneness? He denied you only your request for | pain, for suffering is not of His creation. Having given you |
| Tx:12.28 | over you unless you bring them with you. They carry the spots of | pain in your minds, directing you to attack in the present in |
| Tx:12.28 | for a past that is no more. And this decision is one of future | pain. Unless you learn that past pain is delusional, you are choosing |
| Tx:12.28 | And this decision is one of future pain. Unless you learn that past | pain is delusional, you are choosing a future of illusions and losing |
| Tx:12.62 | being unable to deny a call for help or not to hear the cries of | pain that rise to it from every part of this strange world you made |
| Tx:12.65 | Himself, and nothing else comes nigh unto him. He is as safe from | pain as God Himself, Who watches over him in everything. The world |
| Tx:12.65 | about him shines with love because God placed him in Himself where | pain is not and love surrounds him without end or flaw. Disturbance |
| Tx:12.65 | for it is all about him and within him. He must deny the world of | pain the instant he perceives the arms of love around him. And from |
| Tx:13.12 | it offers those who obey it. The ego rewards fidelity to it with | pain, for faith in it is pain. And faith can be rewarded only in |
| Tx:13.12 | it. The ego rewards fidelity to it with pain, for faith in it is | pain. And faith can be rewarded only in terms of the belief in which |
| Tx:13.20 | You are accustomed to the notion that the mind can see the source of | pain where it is not. The doubtful service of displacement is to hide |
| Tx:13.27 | God believes that he is lost in guilt, alone in a dark world where | pain is pressing everywhere upon him from without. When he has looked |
| Tx:13.65 | You are accustomed to using guiltlessness merely to offset the | pain of guilt and do not look upon it as having value in itself. You |
| Tx:13.66 | There is no compromise that you can make with guilt and escape the | pain which only guiltlessness allays. Learning is living here, as |
| Tx:13.66 | is living here, as creating is being in Heaven. Whenever the | pain of guilt seems to attract you, remember that, if you yield to |
| Tx:14.6 | Yet until he teaches it and learns it, he will suffer the | pain of dim awareness that his true function remains unfulfilled in |
| Tx:14.9 | of every kind lie in it. Who is there but wishes to be free of | pain? He may not yet have learned how to exchange his guilt for |
| Tx:14.9 | innocence nor realize that only in this exchange can freedom from | pain be his. Yet those who have failed to learn need teaching, not |
| Tx:14.10 | this points straight to Heaven and to the peace of God. There is no | pain, no trial, no fear that teaching this can fail to overcome. The |
| Tx:14.41 | of God will take them gently in and cover all their sense of | pain and loss with the immortal assurance of their Father's Love. |
| Tx:14.69 | by offering you a miracle. Miracles are for you. And every fear or | pain or trial you have has been undone. He has brought all of them to |
| Tx:15.4 | the fear of death. Yet if death were thought of merely as an end to | pain, would it be feared? We have seen this strange paradox in the |
| Tx:15.49 | relationship under His care and be sure that it will not result in | pain if you offer Him your willingness to have it serve no need but |
| Tx:15.103 | and when you have accepted it with me, you will give it with me. All | pain and sacrifice and littleness will disappear in our relationship, |
| Tx:15.103 | is as innocent as our relationship with our Father, and as powerful. | Pain will be brought to us and disappear in our presence, and without |
| Tx:15.103 | will be brought to us and disappear in our presence, and without | pain there can be no sacrifice. And without sacrifice, there love |
| Tx:16.1 | does not relate through the ego to another ego. He does not join in | pain, knowing that healing pain is not accomplished by delusional |
| Tx:16.1 | ego to another ego. He does not join in pain, knowing that healing | pain is not accomplished by delusional attempts to enter into it and |
| Tx:16.21 | He came. And the results have been to bring peace where there was | pain, and suffering has disappeared, to be replaced by joy. |
| Tx:16.43 | it is necessary first to realize that it involves a great amount of | pain. Anxiety, despair, guilt, and attack all enter into it, broken |
| Tx:16.65 | before only because you realize it is delay and that escape from | pain is really possible. Find hope and comfort rather than despair in |
| Tx:16.70 | to reenact the past and change it. Imagined slights, remembered | pain, past disappointments, perceived injustices, and deprivations |
| Tx:17.3 | truth. Very simply, your lack of faith in the power that heals all | pain arises from your wish to retain some aspects of reality for |
| Tx:17.77 | “something else” produced was sorrow and depression, sickness and | pain, darkness and dim imaginings of terror, cold fantasies of fear |
| Tx:18.20 | to you.] Your special relationship will remain, not as a source of | pain and guilt, but as a source of joy and freedom. It will not be |
| Tx:18.63 | one responsibility. Atonement is not welcomed by those who prefer | pain and destruction. |
| Tx:18.65 | any single instant, the attraction of guilt would be experienced as | pain and nothing else and would be avoided. It has no attraction now. |
| Tx:19.50 | scrap of evil and of sin which they can find, losing none of them on | pain of death and laying them respectfully before their lord and |
| Tx:19.52 | to allay their savage pangs of hunger. For they are frantic with the | pain of fear and would avert the punishment of him who sends them |
| Tx:19.57 | can give you pleasure, you will also believe that it can bring you | pain. |
| Tx:19.58 | yourself, and to limit the happiness that you would have calls upon | pain to fill your meager store and make your lives complete. This is |
| Tx:19.62 | it has no hope of pleasure. But neither can it bring you fear of | pain. Pain is the only “sacrifice” the Holy Spirit asks, and this He |
| Tx:19.62 | has no hope of pleasure. But neither can it bring you fear of pain. | Pain is the only “sacrifice” the Holy Spirit asks, and this He would |
| Tx:19.63 | want communion, not the feast of fear. You want salvation, not the | pain of guilt. And you want your Father, not a little mound of clay, |
| Tx:19.69 | as itself. The body can bring you neither peace nor turmoil; neither | pain nor joy. It is a means and not an end. It has no purpose of |
| Tx:19.71 | It is impossible to seek for pleasure through the body and not find | pain. It is essential that this relationship be understood, for it is |
| Tx:19.71 | of equating yourself with the body, which is the invitation to | pain. For it invites fear to enter and become your purpose. The |
| Tx:19.71 | fear directs the body to do is therefore painful. It will share the | pain of all illusions, and the illusion of pleasure will be the same |
| Tx:19.71 | of all illusions, and the illusion of pleasure will be the same as | pain. |
| Tx:19.72 | whole illusion of its existence. This, then, is the attraction of | pain. Ruled by this perception, the body becomes the servant of pain, |
| Tx:19.72 | of pain. Ruled by this perception, the body becomes the servant of | pain, seeking it dutifully and obeying the idea that pain is |
| Tx:19.72 | the servant of pain, seeking it dutifully and obeying the idea that | pain is pleasure. It is this idea that underlies all of the ego's |
| Tx:19.74 | And to convince you this is possible, it bids the body search for | pain in attack upon another, calling it pleasure and offering it to |
| Tx:19.75 | believe that yielding to the attraction of guilt is the escape from | pain. Not one but must regard the body as himself, without which he |
| Tx:19.103 | This is your brother, crucified by sin, and waiting for release from | pain. Would you not offer him forgiveness, when only he can offer it |
| Tx:19.109 | so will his offering be seen and so received. The crucified give | pain because they are in pain. But the redeemed give joy because they |
| Tx:19.109 | be seen and so received. The crucified give pain because they are in | pain. But the redeemed give joy because they have been healed of |
| Tx:19.109 | in pain. But the redeemed give joy because they have been healed of | pain. Everyone gives as he receives, but he must choose what it will |
| Tx:20.1 | the celebration of his release. For Easter is the sign of peace, not | pain. A slain Christ has no meaning. But a risen Christ becomes the |
| Tx:20.15 | he would be. He will not leave you nor forsake the savior from his | pain. And gladly will you walk the way of innocence together, singing |
| Tx:20.28 | results as this world sees them—sickness and death and misery and | pain. These things have not occurred because the Holy Spirit sees |
| Tx:20.43 | And merely by remembering them, the laws that held you prisoner to | pain and death must be forgotten. This is no gift your brother's body |
| Tx:21.5 | There is no need to learn through | pain. And gentle lessons are acquired joyously and are remembered |
| Tx:21.6 | choice is that or nothing. They hate the world they learned through | pain. And everything they think is in it serves to remind them that |
| Tx:21.14 | the only thing that you need do for vision, happiness, release from | pain, and the complete escape from sin, all to be given you. Say only |
| Tx:21.64 | miracle instead without the other being blessed by it and healed of | pain. |
| Tx:22.16 | the way to lose the misery the other brings. Every illusion carries | pain and suffering in the dark folds of the heavy garments with which |
| Tx:22.54 | but will be used. This holy relationship has the power to heal all | pain, regardless of its form. Neither of you alone can serve at all. |
| Tx:22.62 | another without yourself or hurt yourself without the other feeling | pain. And this belief you want. Yet wherein lies its value except in |
| Tx:23.30 | substitute for love. This is the “magic” that will cure all of your | pain; the missing factor in your madness that makes it “sane.” This |
| Tx:23.41 | then it must follow that you do not always recognize the source of | pain. Attack in any form is equally destructive. Its purpose does not |
| Tx:23.52 | forms you do not recognize, the signs you know. There is a stab of | pain, a twinge of guilt, and above all, a loss of peace. This you |
| Tx:24.13 | will bring you joy. But the pursuit of specialness must bring you | pain. Here is a goal that would defeat salvation and thus run counter |
| Tx:24.39 | in reality: when peace is not with you entirely and when you suffer | pain of any kind, you have beheld some sin within your brother and |
| Tx:24.41 | much it delicately offers the hope of peace and the escape from | pain—in which you suffer not your condemnation. In dreams, effect |
| Tx:24.52 | to perceive what is not there and all belief God's Son can suffer | pain because he sees himself as he is not. |
| Tx:24.58 | God for you must be that He has given you a part of Him to save from | pain and give you happiness. And never doubt but that your |
| Tx:25.42 | believed to be without the power to save what He created from the | pain of hell. But in the love he shows himself is God made free to |
| Tx:25.50 | the world depends. The magic of the world can seem to hide the | pain of sin from sinners and deceive with glitter and with guile. Yet |
| Tx:26.16 | receive correction for all your problems. You will not keep one, for | pain in any form you will not want. And you will see each little hurt |
| Tx:26.64 | is redemption laid, for healing is not needed where there is no | pain or suffering. Forgiveness is the answer to attack of any kind. |
| Tx:26.74 | strikes, to be perceived as “good” some day but now in form of | pain. This is a sacrifice of now, which could not be the cost the |
| Tx:27.2 | sacrifice is his made manifest and shown to be his own. But every | pain you suffer do you see as proof that he is guilty of attack. Thus |
| Tx:27.3 | Whenever you consent to suffer | pain, to be deprived, unfairly treated, or in need of anything, you |
| Tx:27.3 | offers you to give to him a picture of yourself in which there is no | pain and no reproach at all. And what was martyred to his guilt |
| Tx:27.5 | has not been used for purpose of attack and therefore never suffered | pain at all. It witnesses to the eternal truth that you cannot be |
| Tx:27.17 | Your body can be means to teach that it has never suffered | pain because of him. And in its healing can it offer him mute |
| Tx:27.19 | from guilt upon your brother and yourself. Your healing saves him | pain as well as you, and you are healed because you wished him well. |
| Tx:27.21 | then fears healing? Only those to whom their brother's sacrifice and | pain are seen to represent their own serenity. Their helplessness and |
| Tx:27.21 | and weakness represent the grounds on which they justify his | pain. The constant sting of guilt he suffers serves to prove that he |
| Tx:27.21 | serves to prove that he is slave but they are free. The constant | pain they suffer demonstrates that they are free because they hold |
| Tx:27.39 | peace and offer joy? And which can bring escape from all the | pain of which this world is made?” Whatever form the question takes, |
| Tx:27.54 | Pain demonstrates the body must be real. It is a loud, obscuring | |
| Tx:27.54 | what the Holy Spirit says and keep His words from your awareness. | Pain compels attention, drawing it away from Him and focusing upon |
| Tx:27.54 | which unites all those who share in it within itself. Pleasure and | pain are equally unreal, because their purpose cannot be achieved. |
| Tx:27.55 | Sin shifts from | pain to pleasure and again to pain. For either witness is the same |
| Tx:27.55 | Sin shifts from pain to pleasure and again to | pain. For either witness is the same and carries but one message: |
| Tx:27.55 | you can be hurt. You can have pleasure, too, but only at the cost of | pain.” These witnesses are joined by many more. Each one seems |
| Tx:27.55 | Except for this, the witnesses of sin are all alike. Call pleasure | pain, and it will hurt. Call pain a pleasure, and the pain behind the |
| Tx:27.55 | of sin are all alike. Call pleasure pain, and it will hurt. Call | pain a pleasure, and the pain behind the pleasure will be felt no |
| Tx:27.55 | Call pleasure pain, and it will hurt. Call pain a pleasure, and the | pain behind the pleasure will be felt no more. Sin's witnesses but |
| Tx:27.58 | the effects of life it brings. The dying live, the dead arise, and | pain has vanished. Yet a miracle speaks not but for itself, but what |
| Tx:27.59 | the One Who sends forth miracles to bless the world, a tiny stab of | pain, a little worldly pleasure, and the throes of death itself are |
| Tx:27.68 | you were sure—of all the many causes you perceived as bringing | pain and suffering to you, your guilt was not among them. Nor did you |
| Tx:27.76 | be seen in light of charity and kindness offered you. And let no | pain disturb your dream of deep appreciation for his gifts to you. |
| Tx:27.86 | still is this the truth. Whatever seems to be the cause of any | pain and suffering you feel, this is still true. For you would not |
| Tx:27.87 | been learned, regardless of the form of suffering that brings you | pain. Whatever hurt you bring to Him He will make answer with this |
| Tx:27.87 | this one answer takes away the cause of every form of sorrow and of | pain. The form affects His answer not at all, for He would teach you |
| Tx:28.27 | of miracles. They stand in shining silence next to every dream of | pain and suffering, of sin and guilt. They are the dream's |
| Tx:28.31 | you separated in a body which you see as if it were the cause of | pain. |
| Tx:28.32 | The cause of | pain is separation, not the body, which is only its effect. Yet |
| Tx:28.37 | on you. Thus have they no effects. And you are free of dreams of | pain because you let him be. Unless you help him, you will suffer |
| Tx:28.37 | of pain because you let him be. Unless you help him, you will suffer | pain with him because that is your wish. And you become a figure in |
| Tx:28.37 | because that is your wish. And you become a figure in his dream of | pain, as he in yours. So do you both become illusions and without |
| Tx:28.48 | of hate and malice, bitterness and death, of sin and suffering, [of] | pain and loss, that makes them real. Unshared, they are perceived as |
| Tx:28.54 | nor made itself to be what it is not. It does not seek to make of | pain a joy and look for lasting pleasure in the dust. It does not |
| Tx:28.58 | Sickness is anger taken out upon the body, so that it will suffer | pain. It is the obvious effect of what was made in secret, in |
| Tx:29.12 | a battleground. It has been futile to demand escape from sin and | pain of what was made to serve the function of retaining sin and |
| Tx:29.12 | and pain of what was made to serve the function of retaining sin and | pain. For pain and sin are one illusion, as are hate and fear, attack |
| Tx:29.12 | what was made to serve the function of retaining sin and pain. For | pain and sin are one illusion, as are hate and fear, attack and guilt |
| Tx:29.12 | wherever they are not. Why are you not rejoicing? You are free of | pain and sickness, misery and loss, and all effects of hatred and |
| Tx:29.12 | misery and loss, and all effects of hatred and attack. No more is | pain your friend and guilt your god, and you should welcome the |
| Tx:29.34 | are joined in innocence. These are not hands that grasp in dreams of | pain. They hold no sword, for they have left their hold on every vain |
| Tx:29.38 | much do you desire peace instead of endless strife and misery and | pain? These questions are the same in different form. Forgiveness is |
| Tx:29.43 | happiness His answer brings. Seek not outside yourself. For all your | pain comes simply from a futile search for what you want, insisting |
| Tx:29.57 | and as loving as his Father, come to hate a little while, to suffer | pain, and finally to die. |
| Tx:29.59 | more intelligence, more wealth, or even more affliction and more | pain. But more of something is an idol for. And when one fails, |
| Tx:29.69 | you. For beneath your hope that it will save you lie the guilt and | pain of self-betrayal and uncertainty, so deep and bitter that the |
| Tx:30.1 | lead you from dreams of judgment to forgiving dreams and out of | pain and fear. They are not new to you, but they are more ideas than |
| Tx:30.58 | are not wanted there, for guilt is understood as the sole cause of | pain in any form. No one is tempted by its vain appeal, for suffering |
| Tx:30.65 | it. What happiness have you sought here that did not bring you | pain? What moment of content has not been bought at fearful price in |
| Tx:30.67 | except the “gift” of guilt. Not one was bought except at cost of | pain, nor was it ever paid by you alone. |
| Tx:30.94 | but will fade if you request a miracle instead. There is no | pain from which he is not free if you would have him be but what he |
| Tx:31.11 | You are deceived if you believe you want disaster and disunity and | pain. Hear not the call for this within yourself. But listen, rather, |
| Tx:31.30 | to the snarling dogs of hate and evil, sickness and attack, of | pain and age, of grief and suffering. Here are the thoughts of |
| Tx:31.81 | upon the thing that you would be instead. It is a thing of madness, | pain, and death; a thing of treachery and black despair, of failing |
| Tx:31.87 | choice before, you now can make a better one and thus escape all | pain which what you chose before has brought to you. In every |
| Tx:31.87 | says, “My brother, choose again.” He would not leave one source of | pain unhealed nor any image left to veil the truth. [He would remove |
| Tx:31.92 | regardless of the images you see. What you behold as sickness and as | pain, as weakness and as suffering and loss is but temptation to |
| Tx:31.92 | defenseless and in hell. Yield not to this, and you will see all | pain in every form wherever it occurs but disappear as mists before |
| Tx:31.93 | of a different world, so new and clean and fresh you will forget the | pain and sorrow that you saw before. Yet this a vision is which you |
| W1:5.1 | used with any person, situation, or event you think is causing you | pain. Apply it specifically to whatever you believe is the cause of |
| W1:20.2 | and you cannot distinguish between joy and sorrow, pleasure and | pain, love and fear. You are now learning how to tell them apart. And |
| W1:38.2 | Your holiness, then, can remove all | pain, can end all sorrow, and can solve all problems. It can do so in |
| W1:41.2 | you and out into the whole world. It will cure all sorrow and | pain and fear and loss because it will heal the mind that thought |
| W1:56.2 | How can I know who I am when I see myself as under constant attack? | Pain, illness, loss, age, and death seem to threaten me. All my hopes |
| W1:58.6 | God intended them for me. I cannot suffer any loss or deprivation or | pain because of who I am. My Father supports me, protects me, and |
| W1:62.3 | and fatigue from your mind. It will take away all fear and guilt and | pain. It will restore the invulnerability and power God gave His Son |
| W1:78.7 | will review his faults, the difficulties you have had with him, the | pain he caused you, his neglect, and all the little and the larger |
| W1:95.1 | creation—weak, vicious, ugly and sinful, miserable and beset with | pain. |
| W1:96.7 | Yet would you have God's plan for the release of His dear Son bring | pain to him and fail to set him free? |
| W1:97.6 | hour from your hands and carry them around this aching world, where | pain and misery appear to rule. He will not overlook one open mind |
| W1:98.6 | Here is an offer guaranteeing you your full release from | pain of every kind and joy the world does not contain. You can |
| W1:99.4 | means by which they are undone without attack and with no touch of | pain? What but a thought of God could be this plan by which the never |
| W1:99.5 | Unshaken does the Holy Spirit look on what you see—on sin and | pain and death, on grief and separation, and on loss. Yet does He |
| W1:99.9 | in which your freedom lies. Your Father loves you. All the world of | pain is not His Will. Forgive yourself the thought He wanted this for |
| W1:101.2 | for they cannot both be true. The sinful warrant only death and | pain, and it is this they ask for, for they know it waits for them |
| W1:101.3 | If sin is real, salvation must be | pain. Pain is the cost of sin, and suffering can never be escaped if |
| W1:101.3 | If sin is real, salvation must be pain. | Pain is the cost of sin, and suffering can never be escaped if sin is |
| W1:101.6 | there is no sin, and suffering is causeless. Joy is just, and | pain is but the sign you have misunderstood yourself. |
| W1:102.2 | we try to loose its weakened hold still further. And to realize that | pain is purposeless, without a cause, and with no power to accomplish |
| W1:103.1 | so, believing there are gaps in love where sin can enter, bringing | pain instead of joy. |
| W1:103.6 | replaces fear, and joy becomes what you expect to take the place of | pain. God being Love, it will be given you. Bolster this expectation |
| W1:107.4 | could be no fear, no doubt, and no attack. When truth has come, all | pain is over, for there is no room for transitory thoughts and dead |
| W1:107.6 | of perfect constancy and love which does not falter in the face of | pain but looks beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the gift of |
| W1:109.3 | thought will carry you through storms and strife, past misery and | pain, past loss and death, and onward to the certainty of God. There |
| W1:109.5 | In Him you have no cares and no concerns, no burdens, no anxiety, no | pain, no fear of future, and no past regrets. In timelessness you |
| W1:121.2 | mind is sad, without the hope of respite and release from | pain. It suffers and abides in misery, peering about in darkness, |
| W1:124.5 | We see it in appearances of | pain, and pain gives way to peace. We see it in the frantic, in the |
| W1:124.5 | We see it in appearances of pain, and | pain gives way to peace. We see it in the frantic, in the sad and the |
| W1:128.4 | is here to cherish. Nothing here is worth one instant of delay and | pain, one moment of uncertainty and doubt. The worthless offer |
| W1:132.4 | the world with all your fears, your doubts and miseries, your | pain and tears, and all your sorrows press upon it and keep it a |
| W1:132.11 | is the salvation of the world? To free the world from every kind of | pain is but to change your mind about yourself. There is no world |
| W1:133.14 | is far more than merely letting you make choices easily and without | pain. Heaven Itself is reached by empty hands and open minds, which |
| W1:134.10 | render choosing meaningful and keep your mind as free of guilt and | pain as God Himself intended it to be and as it is in truth. It is |
| W1:135.10 | from bodily conditions. And you will impose upon the body all the | pain that comes from the conception of the mind as limited and |
| W1:135.19 | Perhaps you have misunderstood His plan, for He would never offer | pain to you. But your defenses did not let you see His loving |
| W1:136.9 | from you, and so you must be separate from the truth. You suffer | pain because the body does, and in this pain are you made one with |
| W1:136.9 | from the truth. You suffer pain because the body does, and in this | pain are you made one with it. Thus is your “true” identity preserved |
| W1:136.19 | there will be no sense of feeling ill or feeling well, of | pain or pleasure. No response at all is in the mind to what the body |
| W1:137.10 | help He asks in freeing you from everything that ever caused you | pain. And as you let yourself be healed, you see all those around you |
| W1:137.13 | we may carry healing to the world, exchanging curse for blessing, | pain for joy, and separation for the peace of God. Is not a minute of |
| W1:138.10 | as a wholly worthless thing, a but imagined source of guilt and | pain? Who hesitates to make a choice like this? And shall we hesitate |
| W1:R4.12 | the world from darkness to the light, from grief to joy, from | pain to peace, from sin to holiness. God offers thanks to you who |
| W1:151.10 | and the truth. He will remove all faith that you have placed in | pain, disaster, suffering, and loss. He gives you vision which can |

| Tx:1.28 | 25. Miracles are | part of an interlocking chain of forgiveness which, when completed, |
| Tx:1.29 | I stand at the end in case you fail temporarily. The purpose of my | part in the Atonement is the canceling out of all lacks of love which |
| Tx:1.30 | really means “undoing.” The undoing of fear is an essential | part of the Atonement value of miracles. |
| Tx:1.31 | to the recognition of your original state, you naturally become | part of the Atonement yourself. As you share my inability to tolerate |
| Tx:1.50 | 36. Christ-controlled miracles are | part of the Atonement, but Christ-guidance is personal [and leads to |
| Tx:2.15 | a fearful dream, he may initially interpret the light itself as a | part of his own dream and be afraid of it. However, when he awakens |
| Tx:2.45 | only the first step in correcting this kind of distortion. It alters | part of the misperception but not all of it. It does recognize, |
| Tx:2.50 | is already provided and does not involve any effort at all on their | part. Their egocentricity usually misperceives this as personally |
| Tx:2.73 | choose to correct it. You would not tolerate insane behavior on your | part and would hardly advance the excuse that you could not help it. |
| Tx:2.77 | conflicted behavior, which is intolerable to yourself because the | part of the will that wants to do something else is outraged. |
| Tx:2.93 | you that you do not guard your thoughts carefully except for a small | part of the day and somewhat inconsistently even then. You may feel |
| Tx:2.101 | Souls God created are His Sons, then every Soul must be an integral | part of the whole Sonship. You do not find the concept that the whole |
| Tx:2.103 | Any | part of the Sonship can believe in error or incompleteness if he so |
| Tx:2.111 | there is no reason for fear to remain with him. This is his | part in the Atonement. |
| Tx:3.19 | disappears, and level confusion vanishes. The Son of God is | part of the Holy Trinity, but the Trinity itself is One. There is no |
| Tx:3.42 | conflict arises from the same basis as interpersonal conflict. One | part of the psyche perceives another part as on a different level and |
| Tx:3.42 | as interpersonal conflict. One part of the psyche perceives another | part as on a different level and does not understand it. This makes |
| Tx:3.45 | or it would merely cease to be. This is impossible because it is | part of the Soul which God created and which is therefore eternal. |
| Tx:3.57 | of shifting and changing focus. Evaluation is an essential | part of perception, because judgments must be made for selection. |
| Tx:3.58 | Truth can only be known. All of it is equally true, and knowing any | part of it is to know all of it. Only perception involves partial |
| Tx:4.15 | which is indeed a fearful attempt, but to see it as it is. You are | part of reality, which stands unchanged beyond the reach of your ego |
| Tx:4.27 | need they feel to protect them. This is because they regard them as | part of themselves. No one disowns something he regards as a very |
| Tx:4.27 | of themselves. No one disowns something he regards as a very real | part of himself. Man reacts to his ego much as God does to His Souls: |
| Tx:4.39 | can be understood only within the thought system of which they are a | part. That is why psychologists are concentrating increasingly on the |
| Tx:4.55 | sane mind is perfectly conscious, is ruthlessly banished from the | part of the mind which the ego rules. The ego is desperate because it |
| Tx:4.66 | of Christ means nothing more than the end of the ego's rule over | part of the minds of men and the healing of the mind. I was created |
| Tx:4.71 | mind becomes actually dazed. Being told by the ego that it is really | part of the body and that the body is its protector, the mind is also |
| Tx:4.85 | The ego is nothing more than a | part of your belief about yourselves. Your other life has continued |
| Tx:4.89 | charge of the whole Atonement. This is only because I completed my | part in it as a man and can now complete it through other men. My |
| Tx:4.94 | becomes concrete voluntarily as soon as it splits. However, only | part of it splits, so only part of it is concrete. The concrete part |
| Tx:4.94 | as soon as it splits. However, only part of it splits, so only | part of it is concrete. The concrete part is the same part that |
| Tx:4.94 | only part of it splits, so only part of it is concrete. The concrete | part is the same part that believes in the ego because the ego |
| Tx:4.94 | so only part of it is concrete. The concrete part is the same | part that believes in the ego because the ego depends on the |
| Tx:4.94 | in the ego because the ego depends on the specific. It is the | part that believes your existence means you are separate. |
| Tx:4.100 | with which to judge such offerings. But unless you take your | part in the creation, His joy is not complete because yours is |
| Tx:4.103 | of help, but it is often little more than a painful attempt on the | part of the halt to lead the blind. |
| Tx:5.2 | and to make one. That is why it makes no difference to what | part or by what part of the Sonship the healing is done. Every part |
| Tx:5.2 | make one. That is why it makes no difference to what part or by what | part of the Sonship the healing is done. Every part benefits and |
| Tx:5.2 | what part or by what part of the Sonship the healing is done. Every | part benefits and benefits equally. |
| Tx:5.5 | perceive their oneness and become glad. This gladness calls to every | part of the Sonship to rejoice with them and lets God Himself go out |
| Tx:5.10 | The Holy Spirit is the only | part of the Holy Trinity which is symbolic. He is referred to in the |
| Tx:5.22 | knowledge is sure. God is not in you in a literal sense; you are | part of Him. When you chose to leave Him, He gave you a Voice to |
| Tx:5.25 | chooses right. The Holy Spirit is your Guide in choosing. He is the | part of your mind which always speaks for the right choice because He |
| Tx:5.28 | cannot be as one. What better vocation could there be for any | part of the Kingdom than to restore it to the perfect integration |
| Tx:5.32 | between the two ways of thinking would not be open to healing. He is | part of the Holy Trinity because His Mind is partly yours and also |
| Tx:5.33 | Being the Call for God, it is also the idea of God. Since you are | part of God, it is also the idea of yourself as well as of all the |
| Tx:5.33 | ideas, because it follows the laws of the Universe of which it is a | part. Therefore, it is strengthened by being given away. It increases |
| Tx:5.41 | with an unwilling learner without going counter to his will because | part of his will is still for God. Despite the ego's attempts to |
| Tx:5.41 | will is still for God. Despite the ego's attempts to conceal this | part, it is still much stronger than the ego, even though the ego |
| Tx:5.42 | because it is a place of peace, and peace is of God. You who are | part of God are not at home except in His peace. If peace is eternal, |
| Tx:5.43 | God in remembrance of me. He is in Holy Communion always, and He is | part of you. He is your Guide to salvation, because He holds the |
| Tx:5.44 | your real relationships to them, because you did not accept them as | part of you. Understanding is beyond perception because it introduces |
| Tx:5.45 | we know what God creates is eternal. What fear has hidden still is | part of you. |
| Tx:5.46 | belongs to you because you created it. It is yours because it is a | part of you, just as you are part of God because He created you. |
| Tx:5.46 | created it. It is yours because it is a part of you, just as you are | part of God because He created you. |
| Tx:5.47 | has been born, but it can increase as you are willing to return the | part of your mind that needs healing to the higher part and thus |
| Tx:5.47 | to return the part of your mind that needs healing to the higher | part and thus render your creating undivided. |
| Tx:5.49 | which led to a decision not to repeat the error, which is only | part of healing. Your concept lacked the idea of undoing it. What you |
| Tx:5.50 | it is possible even in this world to listen to one voice. If you are | part of God and the Sonship is one, you cannot be limited to the |
| Tx:5.50 | limited to the “self” the ego sees. Every loving thought held in any | part of the Sonship belongs to every part. It is shared because it is |
| Tx:5.50 | loving thought held in any part of the Sonship belongs to every | part. It is shared because it is loving. Sharing is God's way of |
| Tx:5.55 | My | part in the Atonement is not complete until you join it and give it |
| Tx:5.61 | The ego is the | part of the mind which believes in division. How can part of God |
| Tx:5.61 | The ego is the part of the mind which believes in division. How can | part of God detach itself without believing it is attacking Him? We |
| Tx:5.62 | that you believe it is possible to attack God. You believe that a | part of Him has been torn away by you. The classic picture of fear of |
| Tx:5.67 | are wrong. The function of thought comes from God and is in God. As | part of His Thought, you cannot think apart from Him. |
| Tx:5.73 | know God. Remember the Kingdom always, and remember that you who are | part of the Kingdom cannot be lost. The mind that was in me is in |
| Tx:5.76 | undo it in you because it does not belong in your mind, which is | part of God. |
| Tx:5.78 | The ego will not be destroyed because it is | part of your thought, but because it is uncreative and therefore |
| Tx:5.78 | it will be reinterpreted entirely to release you from fear. The | part of your thought which you have given to the ego will merely |
| Tx:5.93 | His plan perfectly explicit to you and have also told you of your | part in His plan and how urgent it is that you fulfill it. There is |
| Tx:5.95 | you, is nevertheless within you because God placed it there. Your | part is merely to return your thinking to the point at which the |
| Tx:6.9 | that it is assailable. You are not asked to be crucified, which was | part of my own teaching contribution. You are merely asked to follow |
| Tx:6.21 | a similar reversal. Judas was my brother and a Son of God, as much a | part of the Sonship as myself. Was it likely that I would condemn him |
| Tx:6.25 | Any split in will must involve a rejection of | part of it, and this is the belief in separation. The wholeness of |
| Tx:6.30 | cannot be anywhere that God did not put you, and God created you as | part of Him. That is both where you are and what you are. It is |
| Tx:6.32 | with each other, because they were created neither partially nor in | part. The Holy Spirit enables you to perceive this wholeness now. You |
| Tx:6.38 | Spirit is One. No darkness abides anywhere in the Kingdom, but your | part is only to allow no darkness to abide in your own mind. This |
| Tx:6.40 | mind can never be defiled. The ego never was and never will be | part of it, but through the ego you can hear and teach and learn what |
| Tx:6.43 | is to teach peace. By learning it through projection, it becomes a | part of what you know, because you cannot teach what you have |
| Tx:6.45 | you no longer need His guidance. The ego does not regard itself as | part of you. Herein lies its primary perceptual error, the foundation |
| Tx:6.46 | When God created you, He made you | part of Him. That is why attack within the Kingdom is impossible. You |
| Tx:6.46 | itself as separate and outside its maker, thus speaking for the | part of your mind that believes you are separate and outside the Mind |
| Tx:6.48 | The ego cannot hear the Holy Spirit, but it does believe that | part of the same mind that made it is against it. It interprets this |
| Tx:6.48 | to the body, not the mind, as its ally, because the body is not | part of you. This makes the body the ego's friend. It is an alliance |
| Tx:6.49 | that its “enemy” can end them both merely by knowing they are not | part of him, they join in the attack together. This is perhaps the |
| Tx:6.50 | questions which the ego raises. You are a Child of God, a priceless | part of His Kingdom, which He created as part of Him. Nothing else |
| Tx:6.50 | a Child of God, a priceless part of His Kingdom, which He created as | part of Him. Nothing else exists, and only this is real. You have |
| Tx:6.63 | the mind can be shared. The body is separate and therefore cannot be | part of you. To be of one mind is meaningful, but to be of one body |
| Tx:6.94 | did not keep only the Kingdom of God in your minds and thus placed | part of your mind outside it. What you have made has thus divided |
| Tx:7.3 | Your creations belong in you, as you belong in God. You are | part of God, as your sons are part of His Sons. To create is to love. |
| Tx:7.3 | in you, as you belong in God. You are part of God, as your sons are | part of His Sons. To create is to love. Love extends outward simply |
| Tx:7.27 | therefore your friend. We said before that the ego's friend is not | part of you, since the ego perceives itself as at war and therefore |
| Tx:7.31 | is already there and thereby reawaken it. This is why the healer is | part of the resurrection and the life. The Spirit is not asleep in |
| Tx:7.31 | the life. The Spirit is not asleep in the minds of the sick, but the | part of the mind that can perceive it and be glad is. |
| Tx:7.34 | step toward the knowledge that you are in God, because you are | part of Him. The miracles which the Holy Spirit inspires can have no |
| Tx:7.34 | Holy Spirit inspires can have no order of difficulty, because every | part of creation is of one order. This is God's Will and yours. The |
| Tx:7.49 | because what you understand you can identify with, and by making it | part of you, you have accepted it with love. |
| Tx:7.53 | His creations. You can appreciate the Sonship only as one. This is | part of the Law of Creation and therefore governs all thought. |
| Tx:7.54 | fragmented. It is impossible, however, for you to see something in | part of it that you will not attribute to all of it. That is why |
| Tx:7.55 | of your making. Your ability to direct your thinking as you will is | part of its power. If you do not believe you can do this, you have |
| Tx:7.58 | if the mind which made it knew itself. And if it recognized any | part of the Sonship, it would know itself. |
| Tx:7.63 | The ego wants no | part of truth, because the truth is that the ego is not true. If |
| Tx:7.65 | [of thought] as if it were weak, because you do not believe you are | part of it. |
| Tx:7.66 | Perceived without your | part in it, God's creation is perceived as weak, and those who see |
| Tx:7.70 | is because denial is as total as love. It is as impossible to deny | part of the Sonship as it is to love it in part. Nor is it possible |
| Tx:7.70 | is as impossible to deny part of the Sonship as it is to love it in | part. Nor is it possible to love it totally at times. You cannot be |
| Tx:7.70 | you. Reality cannot be partly appreciated. That is why denying any | part of it means you have lost awareness of all of it. |
| Tx:7.71 | of God. Stated positively,] the law requires you to recognize only | part of reality to appreciate all of it. Mind is too powerful to be |
| Tx:7.76 | rest by loving. But love everything He created of which you are a | part, or you cannot learn of His peace and accept His gift for |
| Tx:7.79 | Being the | part of your mind which does not believe it is responsible for itself |
| Tx:7.80 | everyone, and you will know that you are in Him with them. They are | part of you, as you are part of God. You are as lonely without |
| Tx:7.80 | know that you are in Him with them. They are part of you, as you are | part of God. You are as lonely without understanding this as God |
| Tx:7.81 | Perceive any | part of the ego's thought system as wholly insane, wholly delusional, |
| Tx:7.81 | evaluated all of it. This correction enables you to perceive any | part of creation as wholly real, wholly perfect, and wholly |
| Tx:7.85 | precisely because it cannot be fully shared. Any attempt to keep | part of it and get rid of another part does not really mean anything. |
| Tx:7.85 | fully shared. Any attempt to keep part of it and get rid of another | part does not really mean anything. Remember that a conflicted |
| Tx:7.90 | your true identification with the whole Kingdom as literally | part of you. This identification is as beyond doubt as it is beyond |
| Tx:7.91 | the Soul, because that is how God created it. The Holy Spirit is the | part of the mind that lies between the ego and the Soul, mediating |
| Tx:7.91 | ego, this is partiality, and it therefore responds as if it were the | part that is being sided against. To the Soul, this is truth, because |
| Tx:7.91 | is truth, because it knows its fullness and cannot conceive of any | part from which it is excluded. |
| Tx:7.92 | God. Everything He created is given all His power, because it is | part of Him and shares His Being with Him. Creating is the opposite |
| Tx:7.94 | joy, because you do not know your own self-fullness. Exclude any | part of the Kingdom from yourself, and you are not whole. A split |
| Tx:7.95 | into your awareness whenever you will let Him. They are there as | part of your own being, because your fulfillment includes them. The |
| Tx:7.97 | The miracle is a lesson in total perception. By including any | part of totality in the lesson, you have included the whole. You have |
| Tx:7.98 | could not want it. The only reason why you could possibly want any | part of it is because you do not see the whole of it. You [therefore] |
| Tx:7.99 | there, exactly where they belong. They belong in your mind as | part of your identification with His, but your state of mind and your |
| Tx:7.112 | are denying yours and that of God, Who created you. You cannot deny | part of truth. You do not know your creations, because you do not |
| Tx:8.4 | Those whom you perceive as opponents are | part of your peace, which you are giving up by attacking them. How |
| Tx:8.12 | them to be the same, how can you tell them apart? Can you ask the | part of your mind that taught you to believe they are the same to |
| Tx:8.14 | because it created all things. By creating all things, it made them | part of itself. You are the Will of God, because this is how you were |
| Tx:8.14 | your Creator creates only like Himself, you are like Him. You are | part of Him Who is all power and glory and are therefore as unlimited |
| Tx:8.23 | You can encounter only | part of yourself, because you are part of God, Who is everything. His |
| Tx:8.23 | You can encounter only part of yourself, because you are | part of God, Who is everything. His power and glory are everywhere, |
| Tx:8.23 | releasing you and your brothers from every imprisoning thought any | part of the Sonship has accepted. Wrong decisions have no power |
| Tx:8.27 | You were in darkness until God's Will was done completely by any | part of the Sonship. When this was done, it was perfectly |
| Tx:8.34 | with the Son. It cannot be with one and not the other. If you are | part of one, you must be part of the other, because they are one. |
| Tx:8.34 | be with one and not the other. If you are part of one, you must be | part of the other, because they are one. |
| Tx:8.35 | Unless you take your place in It and fulfill your function as | part of It, It is as bereft as you are. No part of It can be |
| Tx:8.35 | fulfill your function as part of It, It is as bereft as you are. No | part of It can be imprisoned if Its truth is to be known. Can you be |
| Tx:8.57 | freedom from his belief in littleness and thus escape from yours. As | part of you, he is holy. As part of me, you are. To communicate with |
| Tx:8.57 | and thus escape from yours. As part of you, he is holy. As | part of me, you are. To communicate with part of God Himself is to |
| Tx:8.57 | part of you, he is holy. As part of me, you are. To communicate with | part of God Himself is to reach beyond the Kingdom to its Creator |
| Tx:8.57 | to its Creator through His Voice, which He has established as | part of you. |
| Tx:8.61 | by the Holy Spirit, it is not. It becomes only a means by which the | part of the mind you have separated from your Soul can reach beyond |
| Tx:8.62 | whole, which is also natural. All mind is whole, and the belief that | part of it is physical, or not mind, is a fragmented (or sick) |
| Tx:8.70 | are inferior is that they may well be inaccurate. Functions are | part of being since they arise from it, but the relationship is not |
| Tx:8.70 | but the relationship is not reciprocal. The whole does define the | part, but the part does not define the whole. This is as true of |
| Tx:8.70 | is not reciprocal. The whole does define the part, but the | part does not define the whole. This is as true of knowledge as it is |
| Tx:8.70 | as true of knowledge as it is of perception. The reason to know in | part is to know entirely is because of the fundamental difference |
| Tx:8.70 | change is possible. There is no difference between the whole and the | part where change is impossible. |
| Tx:8.81 | you and find you when you meet its conditions. Its conditions are | part of what it is. And this part only is up to you. The rest is of |
| Tx:8.81 | meet its conditions. Its conditions are part of what it is. And this | part only is up to you. The rest is of itself. You need do so little, |
| Tx:8.81 | You need do so little, because it is so powerful that your little | part will bring the whole to you. Accept then your little part, and |
| Tx:8.81 | little part will bring the whole to you. Accept then your little | part, and let the whole be yours. |
| Tx:8.86 | it is properly understood. There has been a marked tendency on the | part of many of the Bible's followers and also its translators to be |
| Tx:8.89 | your return to meaning is essential to His because your meaning is | part of His. Your healing, then, is part of His health since it is |
| Tx:8.89 | to His because your meaning is part of His. Your healing, then, is | part of His health since it is part of His Wholeness. He cannot lose |
| Tx:8.89 | part of His. Your healing, then, is part of His health since it is | part of His Wholeness. He cannot lose this, but you can not know it. |
| Tx:8.106 | Christ is in me, and where He is God must be, for Christ is | part of Him. |
| Tx:9.10 | You have a | part to play in the Atonement, but the plan of the Atonement is |
| Tx:9.33 | If your brothers are | part of you, will you accept them? Only they can teach you what you |
| Tx:9.33 | you do to me, and if you do everything for yourself because we are | part of you, everything we do belongs to you as well. Every Soul God |
| Tx:9.33 | everything we do belongs to you as well. Every Soul God created is | part of you and shares His glory with you. His Glory belongs to Him, |
| Tx:9.34 | must create as one, you remember creation whenever you recognize | part of creation. Each part you remember adds to your wholeness, |
| Tx:9.34 | you remember creation whenever you recognize part of creation. Each | part you remember adds to your wholeness, because each part is whole. |
| Tx:9.34 | Each part you remember adds to your wholeness, because each | part is whole. Wholeness is indivisible, but you cannot learn of your |
| Tx:9.44 | and keep the ego's whole thought system intact. You cannot retain | part of a thought system, because it can be questioned only at its |
| Tx:9.47 | fitting for Him, for you do not want anything else. Return your | part of Him, and He will give you all of Himself in exchange for your |
| Tx:9.51 | you that you are insane and argue that grandeur cannot be a real | part of you because of the littleness in which it believes. |
| Tx:9.57 | irreplaceable in the Mind of God. No one else can fill your | part of it, and while you leave your part of it empty, your eternal |
| Tx:9.57 | God. No one else can fill your part of it, and while you leave your | part of it empty, your eternal place merely waits for your return. |
| Tx:9.60 | nothing beside you, and nothing beside you exists, for you are | part of Him. What except Him can exist? Nothing beyond Him can |
| Tx:9.64 | is that you love your creations as yourself because they are | part of you. Everything that was created is therefore perfectly safe, |
| Tx:9.64 | perfectly safe, because the laws of God protect it by His Love. Any | part of your mind that does not know this has banished itself from |
| Tx:9.69 | for God is in your memory, and His Voice will tell you that you are | part of Him when you are willing to remember Him and know your own |
| Tx:9.70 | perceptual counterpart of creating in the Kingdom. God will do His | part if you will do yours, and His return in exchange for yours is |
| Tx:9.71 | why this is always fearful. If you further recognize that you are | part of God, you will understand why it is that you always attack |
| Tx:9.76 | is sick. To believe that a Son of God can be sick is to believe that | part of God can suffer. Love cannot suffer, because it cannot attack. |
| Tx:9.77 | the love of God which he has forgotten. Your recognition of him as | part of God teaches him the truth about himself, which he is denying. |
| Tx:9.77 | power can be taken from you. Yet this is impossible, because you are | part of God, Who is all power. |
| Tx:9.79 | which God created because of the calm knowledge that each one is | part of Him. God's Son knows no idols, but he does know his Father. |
| Tx:9.86 | illusions are irreconcilable. Truth is whole and cannot be known by | part of a mind. |
| Tx:9.87 | limit the split because the split is the sign that you have removed | part of your mind from God's Will, and this means it is out of |
| Tx:9.99 | your call, you have not answered His. He calls to you from every | part of the Sonship because of His love for His Son. If you hear His |
| Tx:9.104 | is how you must learn to see him to learn of his reality. And as | part of the Sonship, that is how you must see yourself to learn of |
| Tx:10.4 | My brother, you are | part of God and part of me. When you have at last looked at the ego's |
| Tx:10.4 | My brother, you are part of God and | part of me. When you have at last looked at the ego's foundation |
| Tx:10.5 | His Son, where He wills His Son to be and where he is. In whatever | part of the Mind of God's Son you restore this reality, you restore |
| Tx:10.6 | Who is the universe? I and my Father are one with you, for you are | part of us. Do you really believe that part of God can be missing or |
| Tx:10.6 | are one with you, for you are part of us. Do you really believe that | part of God can be missing or lost to Him? |
| Tx:10.7 | If you were not | part of God, His Will would not be unified. Is this conceivable? Can |
| Tx:10.7 | part of God, His Will would not be unified. Is this conceivable? Can | part of His Mind contain nothing? If your place in His Mind cannot be |
| Tx:10.11 | Could any | part of God be without His love and could any part of His love be |
| Tx:10.11 | Could any part of God be without His love and could any | part of His love be contained? God is your heritage because His one |
| Tx:10.16 | of Him, you know there is but one will. Yet when you attack any | part of God and His Kingdom, your understanding is not perfect, and |
| Tx:10.18 | And denial is as total as love. You cannot deny | part of yourself because the remainder will seem to be unintegrated |
| Tx:10.20 | waiting. You can safely trust His patience, for He cannot leave a | part of God. Yet you need far more than patience. |
| Tx:10.27 | all illusions. Turn toward the light, for the little spark in you is | part of a light so great that it can sweep you out of all darkness |
| Tx:10.30 | For you cannot understand Wholeness unless you are whole, and no | part of the Son can be excluded if he would know the Wholeness of his |
| Tx:10.31 | your Soul by its Creator that you might extend it. Yet if you hate | part of your own Soul, all your understanding is lost because you are |
| Tx:10.31 | God created as yourself without love. And since what He created is | part of Him, you are denying Him His place in His own altar. |
| Tx:10.33 | and your own Soul must be unknown to you. Every altar to God is | part of your Soul because the light He created is one with Him. Would |
| Tx:10.35 | If your brothers are | part of you and you blame them for your deprivation, you are blaming |
| Tx:10.65 | of God's Son is the work of the redemption, in which everyone has a | part of equal value. God does not judge His blameless Son. Having |
| Tx:10.68 | saved. Bring only this awareness to the Sonship, and you will have a | part in the redemption as valuable as mine. For your part must be |
| Tx:10.68 | you will have a part in the redemption as valuable as mine. For your | part must be like mine if you learn it of me. If you believe that |
| Tx:10.68 | their equality is their oneness. The whole power of God is in every | part of Him, and nothing contradictory to His Will is either great or |
| Tx:10.86 | yours. To love yourself is to heal yourself, and you cannot perceive | part of you as sick and achieve your own goal. Brother, we heal |
| Tx:10.90 | truth of yourself of the Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as | part of God, deceit in you is impossible. When you perceive yourself |
| Tx:11.3 | is the Holy Spirit's judgment, it requires no effort at all on your | part. Every loving thought is true. Everything else is an appeal for |
| Tx:11.37 | it is afraid to find. The search is inevitable because the ego is | part of your mind, and because of its source, the ego is not wholly |
| Tx:11.55 | You do not want the world. The only thing of value in it is whatever | part of it you look upon with love. This gives it the only reality it |
| Tx:11.62 | Everyone in the world must play his | part in the redemption of the world to recognize that the world has |
| Tx:11.75 | to your Father. That is why the undoing of guilt is an essential | part of the Holy Spirit's teaching. For as long as you feel guilty, |
| Tx:12.52 | wholeness, as I am calling you to join with me. Every voice has a | part in the song of redemption, the hymn of gladness and thanksgiving |
| Tx:12.62 | for help or not to hear the cries of pain that rise to it from every | part of this strange world you made but do not want. The only effort |
| Tx:12.76 | You travel but in dreams while safe at home. Give thanks to every | part of you that you have taught how to remember you. Thus does the |
| Tx:13.7 | the Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy Spirit knows your | part in the redemption and who are seeking you and where to find |
| Tx:13.7 | them. Knowledge is far beyond your individual concern. You, who are | part of it and all of it, need only realize that it is of the Father, |
| Tx:13.16 | Remember always that it is impossible to condemn the Son of God in | part. Those whom you see as guilty become the witnesses to guilt in |
| Tx:13.30 | love them all and equally. Love is not special. If you single out | part of the Sonship for your love, you are imposing guilt on all your |
| Tx:13.87 | who belong to the First Cause, created by Him like unto Himself and | part of Him, are more than merely guiltless. The state of |
| Tx:14.5 | The only | part of your mind that has reality is the part which links you still |
| Tx:14.5 | The only part of your mind that has reality is the | part which links you still with God. Would you have all of it |
| Tx:14.6 | Each one of you has a special | part to play in the Atonement, but the message given to each to share |
| Tx:14.10 | innocence, each in his own way, have joined together, taking their | part in the unified curriculum of the Atonement. There is no unity of |
| Tx:14.14 | The crucifixion has no | part in the Atonement. Only the resurrection became my part in it. |
| Tx:14.14 | has no part in the Atonement. Only the resurrection became my | part in it. That is the symbol of the release from guilt by |
| Tx:14.45 | but reflected to them here. God is no image, and His creations, as | part of Him, hold Him in them in truth. They do not merely reflect |
| Tx:14.64 | from everything you have taught yourselves. How would you know? Your | part is very simple. You need only recognize that everything you |
| Tx:14.68 | It is only because you think that you can run some little | part or deal with certain aspects of your lives alone that the |
| Tx:15.21 | Start now to practice your little | part in separating out the holy instant. You will receive very |
| Tx:15.37 | to join in any plan but His. I call you to fulfill your holy | part in the plan that He has given to the world for its release from |
| Tx:15.46 | meeting them on your own terms. We said before that to limit love to | part of the Sonship is to bring guilt into your relationships and |
| Tx:15.51 | is so fragmented that it frequently goes even further—one | part of one aspect suits its purposes, while it prefers different |
| Tx:15.56 | and not suffer guilt. And it is equally impossible to condemn | part of a relationship and find peace within it. Under the Holy |
| Tx:15.78 | from your completion in sudden recognition of the value of his | part in it. In the protection of your wholeness, all are invited and |
| Tx:15.85 | the only perception you want, it is translated into knowledge by the | part which God Himself plays in the Atonement, for it is the only |
| Tx:15.98 | relationships, in which you are both destroyer and destroyed in | part, but with the idea of being able to be neither completely. And |
| Tx:15.104 | for you endowed it with fear and tried to cast it out though it was | part of you. Who can perceive part of himself as loathsome and live |
| Tx:15.104 | and tried to cast it out though it was part of you. Who can perceive | part of himself as loathsome and live within himself in peace? And |
| Tx:15.111 | I give you to the Holy Spirit as | part of myself. I know that you will be released, unless I want to |
| Tx:16.3 | Your | part is only to remember this—you do not want anything you value to |
| Tx:16.5 | the fact that He does know. You are not sure that He will do His | part because you have never yet done yours completely. You will not |
| Tx:16.9 | What you give through Him is for the whole Sonship, not for | part of it. Leave Him His function, for He will fulfill it if you but |
| Tx:16.10 | are at all, their attributes would have to be miraculous, being | part of them. |
| Tx:16.11 | fragment and then to be concerned about the truth of just a little | part of the whole. And this is but a way of avoiding or looking away |
| Tx:16.11 | to think of miracles is this: You do not understand them, either in | part or whole. Yet you have done them. Therefore, your understanding |
| Tx:16.12 | are told about it, you cannot understand it. The recognition of the | part as whole and of the whole in every part is perfectly natural. |
| Tx:16.12 | it. The recognition of the part as whole and of the whole in every | part is perfectly natural. For it is the way God thinks, and what is |
| Tx:16.25 | Your teaching has already done this, for the Holy Spirit is | part of you. Created by God, He left neither God nor His creation. He |
| Tx:16.25 | place of what you took in to replace them. They are quite real as | part of the Self you do not know. And they communicate to you through |
| Tx:16.62 | does not include even one whole individual. For the ego wants but | part of him and sees only this part and nothing else. |
| Tx:16.62 | individual. For the ego wants but part of him and sees only this | part and nothing else. |
| Tx:16.66 | Nothing you seek to strengthen in the special relationship is really | part of you. And you cannot keep part of the thought system which |
| Tx:16.66 | the special relationship is really part of you. And you cannot keep | part of the thought system which taught you it was real and |
| Tx:17.4 | it to one teacher and some to another. And so you learn to deal with | part of truth in one way and in another way the other part. To |
| Tx:17.4 | to deal with part of truth in one way and in another way the other | part. To fragment truth is to destroy it by rendering it meaningless. |
| Tx:17.7 | your heart seem to sing with joy has ever brought you even a little | part of the happiness this sight will bring you. For you will see the |
| Tx:17.22 | relationship. For the Creator of the one relationship has left no | part of it without Himself. |
| Tx:17.23 | This is the only | part of the relationship the Holy Spirit sees because He knows that |
| Tx:17.31 | The ego is hyperalert to threat, and the | part of your mind into which the ego was accepted is very anxious to |
| Tx:17.31 | they are supposed to protect. The separation has nothing in it, no | part, no “reason,” and no attribute that is not insane. And its |
| Tx:17.31 | and no attribute that is not insane. And its “protection” is | part of it, as insane as the whole. The special relationship, which |
| Tx:17.36 | to defend you from your own attack. For you attack Them, being | part of Them, and They must save you, for They love Themselves. |
| Tx:17.42 | through His ascendance. What He has given is His. It shines in every | part of Him as in the whole. The whole reality of your relationship |
| Tx:17.49 | from your distress only by getting rid of each other. You need not | part entirely if you choose not to do so. But you must exclude major |
| Tx:17.62 | goal establishes the fact that everyone involved in it will play his | part in its accomplishment. This is inevitable. No one will fail in |
| Tx:17.65 | of the problem but will make solution impossible. For if you shift | part of the problem elsewhere, the meaning of the problem must be |
| Tx:17.69 | to truth. If you lack faith in anyone to fulfill, and perfectly, his | part in any situation dedicated in advance to truth, your dedication |
| Tx:17.71 | your whole relationship in every aspect and complete in every | part. You can leave nothing of yourself outside it and keep the |
| Tx:17.78 | accepted the cause of his awakening as yours. You have assumed your | part in his redemption, and you are now fully responsible to him. |
| Tx:18.4 | it, and every special relationship which you have ever made is | part of it. |
| Tx:18.6 | truth brought to this could only remain within in quiet and take no | part in all the mad projection by which this world was made. Call it |
| Tx:18.38 | Give Him but what He asks, that you may learn how little is your | part and how great is His. |
| Tx:18.42 | before you ask the Holy Spirit's help. That is His function. Your | part is only to offer Him a little willingness to let Him remove all |
| Tx:18.42 | your little faith, joined with His understanding, He will build your | part in the Atonement and make sure that you fulfill it easily. And |
| Tx:18.59 | else in which your mind enlarges to encompass it. It becomes | part of you as you unite with it. And both become whole as neither is |
| Tx:18.72 | to keep you apart from Him. The body is a tiny fence around a little | part of a glorious and complete idea. It draws a circle, infinitely |
| Tx:18.73 | against the universe. This fragment of your mind is such a tiny | part of it that, could you but appreciate the whole, you would see |
| Tx:18.76 | to the sun and ocean your Self continues, unmindful that this tiny | part regards itself as you. It is not missing; it could not exist if |
| Tx:18.77 | whole, which offers all its happiness and deep content to every | part. The little aspect which you think you set apart is no exception. |
| Tx:18.81 | aspect which you tried to hide from Heaven straight into Heaven. No | part of love calls on the whole in vain. No Son of God remains |
| Tx:18.84 | error must be corrected at its source. Therefore, it is the tiny | part of yourself, the little thought that seems split off and |
| Tx:18.85 | This is the little | part of you, you think you stole from Heaven. Give it back to Heaven. |
| Tx:19.6 | to both is to set up a goal forever impossible to attain, for | part of it is sought through the body, thought of as a means for |
| Tx:19.6 | as a means for seeking out reality through attack, while the other | part would heal and therefore calls upon the mind and not the body. |
| Tx:19.11 | Faith is the opposite of fear, as much a | part of love as fear is of attack. Faith is the acknowledgment of |
| Tx:19.17 | thus the mind is guilty and will forever so remain unless a mind not | part of it can give it absolution. Sin calls for punishment as error |
| Tx:19.25 | cannot be corrected and will be forever desirable. As an essential | part of what the ego thinks you are, you will always want it. And |
| Tx:19.31 | must have extended Himself, and it is impossible that what is | part of Him is totally unlike the rest. If sin is real, God must be |
| Tx:19.33 | it and give His Son a will apart from His and stronger. And each | part of God's fragmented creation would have a different will, |
| Tx:19.48 | this little wisp is lifted up and carried away, never to return, and | part with it in gladness, not regret. For it is nothing in itself and |
| Tx:19.68 | Your little | part is but to give the Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And |
| Tx:19.81 | of sin, the pride of guilt, the sepulcher of separation—all are | part of your unrecognized dedication to death. The glitter of guilt |
| Tx:20.33 | is not of you, nor need you be concerned with anything except the | part that has been given you to learn. For He Who knows the rest will |
| Tx:20.33 | to it without your help. But think not that He does not need your | part to help Him with the rest. For in your part lies all of it, |
| Tx:20.33 | He does not need your part to help Him with the rest. For in your | part lies all of it, without which is no part complete, nor is the |
| Tx:20.33 | with the rest. For in your part lies all of it, without which is no | part complete, nor is the whole completed without your part. The ark |
| Tx:20.33 | which is no part complete, nor is the whole completed without your | part. The ark of peace is entered two by two, yet the beginning of |
| Tx:20.34 | no more leave one of them outside than I could leave you and forget | part of myself. |
| Tx:21.8 | place or anything particular. But you remember from just this little | part how lovely was the song, how wonderful the setting where you |
| Tx:21.11 | of him who knows his Father. Here is the memory of what you are—a | part of this, with all of it within and joined to all as surely as |
| Tx:21.43 | the ego. A holy relationship is one in which you join with what is | part of you in truth. And your belief in sin has been already shaken, |
| Tx:21.44 | ego would not hear. The Holy Spirit's purpose was accepted by the | part of your mind the ego knows not of. No more did you. And yet this |
| Tx:21.44 | of your mind the ego knows not of. No more did you. And yet this | part with which you now identify is not afraid to look upon itself. |
| Tx:21.45 | This | part has seen your brother and recognized him perfectly since time |
| Tx:21.47 | And now the ego is afraid. Yet what it hears in terror, the other | part hears as the sweetest music—the song it longed to hear since |
| Tx:21.54 | and in this your will must be included. Thus, there must be a | part of you that knows His Will and shares it. It is not meaningful |
| Tx:21.55 | Oh yes, you know this and more than this alone. Yet any | part of knowledge threatens dissociation as much as all of it. And |
| Tx:21.55 | dissociation as much as all of it. And all of it will come with any | part. Here is the part you can accept. What reason points to you can |
| Tx:21.55 | as all of it. And all of it will come with any part. Here is the | part you can accept. What reason points to you can see because the |
| Tx:21.57 | The | part of mind where reason lies was dedicated by your will in union |
| Tx:21.63 | continuous? And if there is nothing in between, how can what enters | part be kept away from other parts? Reason would tell you this. But |
| Tx:22.6 | would understand. The brain interprets to the body, of which it is a | part. But what it says, you cannot understand. Yet you have listened |
| Tx:22.13 | God did not entrust His Son to the unworthy. Nothing but what is | part of Him is worthy of being joined. Nor is it possible that |
| Tx:22.13 | Him is worthy of being joined. Nor is it possible that anything not | part of Him can join. Communication must have been restored to those |
| Tx:22.23 | There is no | part of Heaven you can take and weave into illusions. Nor is there |
| Tx:22.38 | far can make the wrong decision, but he can delay. And there is no | part of the journey that seems more hopeless and futile than standing |
| Tx:22.55 | you accepted in your relationship corrects the error and lays a | part of Heaven in its place. How blessed are you who let this gift be |
| Tx:22.55 | in its place. How blessed are you who let this gift be given! Each | part of Heaven that you bring is given you. And every empty place in |
| Tx:22.58 | there. Through this releasing is the world released. This is your | part in bringing peace. For you have asked what is your function here |
| Tx:22.62 | from your Creator. For only then would it be possible to attack a | part of the creation without the whole, the Son without the Father, |
| Tx:23.5 | but help him rise above it and perceive the light of which he is a | part. Your innocence will light the way to his, and so is yours |
| Tx:23.6 | Nothing around you but is | part of you. Look on it lovingly, and see the light of Heaven in it. |
| Tx:23.6 | and everything you once thought sinful now will be reinterpreted as | part of Heaven. How beautiful it is to walk clean and redeemed and |
| Tx:23.10 | as nature roaring at the wind in anger and proclaiming that it is | part of itself no more. |
| Tx:23.11 | this and make it true? Nor is it up to you to say what shall be | part of you and what is kept apart. The war against yourself was |
| Tx:23.12 | not what form they take. What made them is insane, and they remain | part of what made them. Madness holds out no menace to reality and |
| Tx:23.12 | threaten it in any way. And the reality which they deny is not a | part of them. |
| Tx:23.13 | What you remember is a | part of you. For you must be as God created you. Truth does not fight |
| Tx:23.14 | power and nothingness. There is nothing you could attack that is not | part of you. And by attacking it, you make two illusions of yourself |
| Tx:23.21 | brought to truth instead of to each other, they merely disappear. No | part of nothing can be more resistant to the truth than can another. |
| Tx:23.43 | is no compromise of any kind. To compromise is to accept but | part of what you want—to take a little and give up the rest. |
| Tx:23.50 | is raised above the battleground, in it no more. This is your | part—to realize that murder in any form is not your will. The |
| Tx:23.51 | in the midst of it, it does seem real. Here you have chosen to be | part of it. Here murder is your choice. Yet from above, the choice is |
| Tx:24.14 | never one, each one in exile from himself and Him of Whom they are a | part. Nor do they love the Oneness Which created them as one with |
| Tx:24.21 | your specialness. He is in need of your acceptance of himself as | part of you, as you for his. You are alike to God as God is to |
| Tx:24.21 | as God is to Himself. He is not special, for He would not keep one | part of what He is unto Himself, not given to His Son but kept for |
| Tx:24.22 | from what it is and must forever be. You are your brother's; | part of love was not denied to him. But can it be that you have lost |
| Tx:24.49 | him, his Father waits for your acknowledgment that He created you as | part of Him. |
| Tx:24.50 | could be no universe and no reality. For what God wills is whole and | part of Him because His Will is One. Nothing alive that is not part |
| Tx:24.50 | and part of Him because His Will is One. Nothing alive that is not | part of Him, and nothing is but is alive in Him. Your brother's |
| Tx:24.55 | your peace but in his holiness? And where is God Himself but in that | part of Him He set forever in your brother's holiness that you might |
| Tx:24.56 | that has never been begun and needs no end. What never was is not a | part of you. Yet you will think it is until you realize that it is |
| Tx:24.56 | of you. Yet you will think it is until you realize that it is not a | part of him who stands beside you. He is the mirror of yourself |
| Tx:24.58 | you? Then see him not as prisoner to them. It cannot be what governs | part of God holds not for all the rest. You place yourself under the |
| Tx:24.58 | how great the love of God for you must be that He has given you a | part of Him to save from pain and give you happiness. And never doubt |
| Tx:24.58 | specialness will disappear before the Will of God, Who loves each | part of Him with equal love [and care]. The Christ in you can see |
| Tx:25.6 | anything the purpose in your mind upholdeth not. Perception is a | part of what it is your purpose to behold, for means and end are |
| Tx:25.8 | been separate, and Christ abides within your understanding in the | part of you that shares His Father's Will. The Holy Spirit links the |
| Tx:25.8 | you that shares His Father's Will. The Holy Spirit links the other | part, the tiny mad desire to be separate, different, and special, to |
| Tx:25.10 | of time and place as if they were discrete, for while you think that | part of you is separate, the concept of a oneness joined as one is |
| Tx:25.17 | The Holy Spirit is the frame God set around the | part of Him that you would see as separate. Yet its frame is joined |
| Tx:25.20 | perfect Father that He is. And so His joy is made complete when any | part of Him joins in His praise, to share His joy. This brother is |
| Tx:25.46 | each He gives a special function in salvation he alone can fill—a | part for only him. Nor is the plan complete until he finds his |
| Tx:25.46 | plan complete until he finds his special function and fulfills the | part assigned to him to make himself complete within a world where |
| Tx:25.48 | still much to do. And each must do what is allotted him, for on his | part does all the plan depend. He has a special part in time, for so |
| Tx:25.48 | him, for on his part does all the plan depend. He has a special | part in time, for so he chose, and choosing it, he made it for |
| Tx:25.48 | there at all.] And this is seen and understood as each one takes his | part in its undoing, as he did in making it. He has the means for |
| Tx:25.58 | Nor is he left without escape from madness, for he has a special | part in everyone's escape. He can no more be left outside without a |
| Tx:25.61 | and direction to the plan in which your special function has a | part. For here your special function is made whole because it shares |
| Tx:25.66 | the victim seen as partly you, with someone else by far the greater | part. And in the total cost, the greater his, the less is yours. And |
| Tx:26.1 | body separate from yours is the expression of a wish to see a little | part of him and sacrifice the rest. Look at the world, and you will |
| Tx:26.2 | never reach and join with what is locked away within the wall. Each | part must sacrifice the other part to keep itself complete. For if |
| Tx:26.2 | is locked away within the wall. Each part must sacrifice the other | part to keep itself complete. For if they joined, each one would lose |
| Tx:26.3 | sacrifice of all the rest. And all the rest must lose this little | part, remaining incomplete to keep its own identity intact. In this |
| Tx:26.26 | sin left vacant do they join as one, in gladness recognizing what is | part of them has not been kept apart and separate. |
| Tx:26.39 | Resurrection has come to take its place. And now you are a | part of resurrection, not of death. No past illusions have the power |
| Tx:26.41 | the true existence of the here and now. The real world is the second | part of the hallucination time and death are real and have existence |
| Tx:26.49 | of time do not affect its workings. It is in this world, but not a | part of it. For it is real and dwells where all reality must be. |
| Tx:26.60 | wills you learn what always has been true—that He created you as | part of Him, and this must still be true because ideas leave not |
| Tx:27.26 | correction has been placed outside yourself on one who cannot be a | part of you while this perception lasts. What is condemned can never |
| Tx:27.26 | it still. This is your brother, focus of your hate, unworthy to be | part of you and thus outside yourself—the other half which is |
| Tx:27.28 | And each forgives the other, that he may accept his other half as | part of him. |
| Tx:27.52 | Who will guarantee that they remain unviolated and unlimited. Your | part is merely to apply what He has taught you to yourself, and He |
| Tx:27.57 | could contain what you believe it holds within. Nor could it tell a | part of God Himself what it should feel and what its function is. Yet |
| Tx:27.65 | recognize their common need. For each one thinks that if he does his | part, the condemnation of the world will rest on him. And it is this |
| Tx:27.65 | world will rest on him. And it is this that he perceives to be his | part in its deliverance. Vengeance must have a focus. Otherwise is |
| Tx:27.67 | The | part you play in salvaging the world from condemnation is your own |
| Tx:27.68 | He cannot doubt his dreams' reality because he does not see the | part he plays in making them and making them seem real. |
| Tx:27.69 | can waken from a dream the world is dreaming for him. He becomes a | part of someone else's dream. He cannot choose to waken from a dream |
| Tx:27.71 | dream in secret. They are one. The dreaming of the world is but a | part of your own dream you gave away and saw as if it were its start |
| Tx:27.71 | your secret dream, which you do not perceive, although it caused the | part you see and do not doubt is real. How could you doubt it while |
| Tx:27.81 | you do? Then let us merely look upon the dream's beginning, for the | part you see is but the second part, whose cause lies in the first. |
| Tx:27.81 | upon the dream's beginning, for the part you see is but the second | part, whose cause lies in the first. No one asleep and dreaming in |
| Tx:27.83 | A timelessness in which is time made real; a | part of God which can attack itself; a separate brother as an enemy; |
| Tx:28.4 | But only your desire made the link, and only you have held it to a | part of time where guilt appears to linger still. |
| Tx:28.18 | and dreamed a dream in which you were an alien to yourself and but a | part of someone else's dream. |
| Tx:28.29 | joint decision to be sick. If you withhold agreement and accept the | part you play in making sickness real, the other mind cannot project |
| Tx:28.38 | is a way of finding certainty right here and now. Refuse to be a | part of fearful dreams whatever form they take, for you will lose |
| Tx:28.41 | Be certain, if you do your | part, he will do his, for he will join you where you stand. Call not |
| Tx:28.41 | believe that it is your reality as well as his. You cannot do his | part, but this you do when you become a passive figure in his dream |
| Tx:28.45 | holy is the smallest grain of sand when it is recognized as being | part of the completed picture of God's Son! The forms the broken |
| Tx:28.45 | And every aspect of the Son of God is just the same as every other | part. |
| Tx:28.48 | and perceive that he is not the dream he made. And so he cannot be a | part of yours, from which you both are free. Forgiveness separates |
| Tx:28.49 | which seems to be your enemy, and will attack your brother as a | part of what you hate. There is no compromise. You are your Self or |
| Tx:28.60 | Himself, and there is no one who could be untrue to what He wills as | part of what He is. The promise that there is no gap between Himself |
| Tx:28.61 | The beautiful relationship you have with all your brothers is a | part of you because it is a part of God Himself. Are you not sick if |
| Tx:28.61 | you have with all your brothers is a part of you because it is a | part of God Himself. Are you not sick if you deny yourself your |
| Tx:29.15 | of the living God—His Son have life and every living thing be | part of him, and nothing else have life. What you have given “life” |
| Tx:29.17 | for it is you of whom the sacrifice is asked? For He is told that | part of Him belongs to Him no longer. He must sacrifice your self, |
| Tx:29.17 | what is gone from Him becomes your god, protecting you from being | part of Him. |
| Tx:29.24 | He is himself, but not himself alone. And as his Father lost not | part of Him in your creation, so the light in him is brighter still |
| Tx:29.30 | to you. And do not try to hurt him when he fails to take the | part which you assigned to him in what you dream your life was meant |
| Tx:29.32 | upon the Son of God and would behold him waken and be glad. He is a | part of you, and you of him because he is his Father's Son and not |

| Tx:29.44 | about himself and seeks for something more than everything, as if a | part of it were separated off and found where all the rest of it is |
| Tx:29.60 | same to every living thing as well. And thus is every living thing a | part of you, as of Himself. No idol can establish you as more than |
| Tx:29.62 | not, and he will waken. For the dream will seem to last while he is | part of it. Judge not, for he who judges will have need of idols |
| Tx:29.62 | the Self he has condemned. Judge not, because you make yourself a | part of evil dreams where idols are your “true” identity and your |
| Tx:29.63 | in the dream are idols made to save you from the dream. Yet they are | part of what they have been made to save you from. Thus does an idol |
| Tx:29.64 | no salvation in the dream as you are dreaming it. For idols must be | part of it to save you from what you believe you have accomplished |
| Tx:29.65 | to make his world remain outside himself, and play that he is but a | part of it. |
| Tx:30.11 | day you want and recognize that something has occurred which is not | part of it. Then realize that you have asked a question by yourself |
| Tx:30.42 | created him. What idol can he need to be himself? For can he give a | part of him away? What is not whole cannot make whole. But what is |
| Tx:30.76 | one appearance must remain apart from healing, one illusion must be | part of truth. And you could not escape all guilt, but only some of |
| Tx:30.77 | brother with the willingness to see him as he is. And do not keep a | part of him outside your willingness that he be healed. To heal is to |
| Tx:30.87 | is no meaning. No one has agreed with you on what it means. It is a | part of a distorted script which cannot be interpreted with meaning. |
| Tx:31.8 | so you did not hear it and had lost a friend who always wanted to be | part of you. The soft, eternal calling of each part of God's creation |
| Tx:31.8 | always wanted to be part of you. The soft, eternal calling of each | part of God's creation to the whole is heard throughout the world |

| Tx:31.75 | Behold your role within the universe! To every | part of true creation has the Lord of Love and Life entrusted all |
| W1:14.7 | repertory of horrors at which you are looking. These things are | part of the world you see. Some of them are shared illusions, and |
| W1:14.7 | the world you see. Some of them are shared illusions, and others are | part of your personal hell. It does not matter. What God did not |
| W1:24.4 | You will quickly realize that you have a number of goals in mind as | part of the desired outcome and also that these goals are on |
| W1:31.3 | move on evenly and calmly, without any special investment on your | part. As you sit and quietly watch your thoughts, repeat today's idea |
| W1:35.2 | You will believe that you are | part of where you think you are. That is because you surround |
| W1:35.2 | it to protect the image of yourself that you have made. The image is | part of this environment. What you see while you believe you are in |
| W1:35.5 | In the earlier | part of the mind searching period, you will probably emphasize what |
| W1:35.5 | negative aspects of your perception of yourself. Toward the latter | part of the exercise period, however, more self-inflating descriptive |

| W1:36.1 | the perceiver to the perceived. You are holy because your mind is | part of God's. And because you are holy, your sight must be holy as |
| W1:36.1 | be without sin a little. You are sinless or not. If your mind is | part of God's, you must be sinless or a part of His Mind would be |
| W1:36.1 | or not. If your mind is part of God's, you must be sinless or a | part of His Mind would be sinful. Your sight is related to His |
| W1:43.7 | Although this | part of the exercise period should be relatively short, be sure that |
| W1:44.2 | yourself, nor is the equipment for seeing outside you. An essential | part of this equipment is the light that makes seeing possible. It is |
| W1:45.2 | as you are. They are in your mind as well, where He is. As you are | part of His Mind, so are your thoughts part of His thoughts. |
| W1:45.2 | well, where He is. As you are part of His Mind, so are your thoughts | part of His thoughts. |
| W1:45.3 | have left. What is thought by the Mind of God is eternal, being | part of creation. |
| W1:49.1 | the day without interrupting your regular activities in any way. The | part of your mind in which truth abides is in constant communication |
| W1:49.1 | with God, whether you are aware of it or not. It is the other | part of your mind that functions in the world and obeys the world's |
| W1:49.1 | that functions in the world and obeys the world's laws. It is this | part which is constantly distracted, disorganized, and highly |
| W1:49.2 | The | part that is listening to the Voice of God is calm, always at rest, |
| W1:49.2 | is calm, always at rest, and wholly certain. It is really the only | part there is. The other part is a wild illusion, frantic and |
| W1:49.2 | and wholly certain. It is really the only part there is. The other | part is a wild illusion, frantic and distraught, but without reality |
| W1:49.2 | of any kind. Try today not to listen to it. Try to identify with the | part of your mind where stillness and peace reign forever. Try to |
| W1:R1.3 | try merely to emphasize the central point and think about it as | part of your review of the idea to which it relates. |
| W1:R1.5 | a haven of isolation for yourself. You will yet learn that peace is | part of you and requires only that you be there to embrace any |
| W1:52.6 | mean? They do not exist, and so they mean nothing. Yet my mind is | part of creation and part of its Creator. Would I not rather join the |
| W1:52.6 | exist, and so they mean nothing. Yet my mind is part of creation and | part of its Creator. Would I not rather join the thinking of the |
| W1:56.5 | God is still everywhere and in everything forever. And we who are | part of Him will yet look past all appearances and recognize the |
| W1:57.6 | [35] My mind is | part of God's. I am very holy. As I share the peace of the world with |
| W1:59.6 | no thoughts apart from Him because I have no mind apart from His. As | part of His Mind, my thoughts are His and His thoughts are mine. |
| W1:65.4 | as for all the trivial purposes and goals you will pursue. This is | part of the long range disciplinary training which your mind needs, |
| W1:67.4 | it with His own. We are also trying to emphasize that you are | part of His definition of Himself. |
| W1:68.3 | of its likeness to its Creator, your Self seems to sleep, while the | part of your mind that weaves illusions in its sleep appears to be |
| W1:68.4 | it is certain that God created them like Himself and defined them as | part of Him. It is as sure that those who hold grievances will suffer |
| W1:68.8 | I would see you as my friend that I may remember you are | part of me and come to know myself. |
| W1:71.9 | Do not allow yourself to become depressed or angry at the second | part; it is inherent in the first. And in the first is your full |
| W1:78.12 | remember this throughout the day and take the role assigned to us as | part of God's salvation plan, and not our own. Temptation falls away |
| W1:R2.1 | our last review left off and cover two ideas each day. The earlier | part of each day will be devoted to one of these ideas, and the |
| W1:R2.1 | of each day will be devoted to one of these ideas, and the latter | part of the day to the other. We will have one longer exercise period |
| W1:R2.2 | phase if you find your mind wandering, but try to spend the major | part of the practice period listening quietly but attentively. |
| W1:87.7 | It is God's Will you are His Son, [name], and mine as well. This is | part of God's Will for me, however I may see it. |
| W1:92.4 | light that lies beyond them. It unites with light, of which it is a | part. It sees itself. It brings the light in which your Self appears. |
| W1:93.17 | today. You can do much today to bring you closer to accepting the | part in salvation which God has assigned to you. And you can do much |
| W1:95.19 | Do not forget today. We need your help, your little | part in bringing happiness to all the world. And Heaven looks to you |
| W1:96.4 | your self-concept, for it has no place in which it could be really | part of you. If you are Spirit, then the body must be meaningless to |
| W1:98.1 | it where it is not. In gladness we accept it as it is and take the | part assigned to us by God. |
| W1:98.9 | I will accept my | part in God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:98.13 | a happy time again with Him. Tell Him once more that you accept the | part which He would have you take and help you fill, and He will make |
| W1:99.10 | This | part belongs to God, as does the rest. It does not think its solitary |
| W1:100.1 | Just as God's Son completes his Father, so your | part in it completes your Father's plan. Salvation must reverse the |
| W1:100.2 | perfect happiness. Why should you choose to go against His Will? The | part that He has saved for you to take in working out His plan is |
| W1:100.2 | plan is given you that you might be restored to what He wills. This | part is as essential to His plan as to your happiness. Your joy must |
| W1:100.5 | not let ourselves be sad today. For if we do, we fail to take the | part that is essential to God's plan as well as to our vision. |
| W1:100.5 | as to our vision. Sadness is the sign that you would play another | part instead of what has been assigned to you by God. Thus do you |
| W1:100.6 | attempt to understand joy is our function here. If you are sad, your | part is unfulfilled and all the world is thus deprived of joy along |
| W1:100.8 | exercises with the thought today's idea contains. Then realize your | part is to be happy. Only this is asked of you or anyone who wants to |
| W1:112.2 | peace. I welcome them into the home I share with God, because I am a | part of Him. |
| W1:114.3 | [98] I will accept my | part in God's plan for salvation. What can my function be but to |
| W1:114.7 | I will accept my | part in God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:115.3 | [100] My | part is essential to God's plan for salvation. I am essential to the |
| W1:115.7 | My | part is essential to God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:125.5 | hold about yourself. He knows His Son and wills that he remain as | part of Him regardless of his dreams, regardless of his madness that |
| W1:127.3 | And it must elude the mind that thinks of it as partial or in | part. There is no love but God's, and all of love is His. There is no |
| W1:127.6 | limits under which you live, and all the changes which you think are | part of human destiny. Today we take the largest single step this |
| W1:127.11 | We will remember them throughout the day because we cannot leave a | part of us outside our love if we would know our Self. At least three |
| W1:128.3 | mind when you perceive salvation here. For what you value you make | part of you as you perceive yourself. All things you seek to make |
| W1:130.7 | meaningless distinctions, nor attempt to bring with us a little | part of unreality as we devote our minds to finding only what is real. |
| W1:130.12 | Accept a little | part of hell as real, and you have damned your eyes and cursed your |
| W1:130.12 | of everything that hell would show to you. All you need say to any | part of hell, whatever form it takes, is simply this: |
| W1:130.13 | see two worlds. I seek my freedom and deliverance, and this is not a | part of what I want. |
| W1:132.14 | God and made to separate the Father and the Son and break away a | part of God Himself and thus destroy His wholeness. Can a world which |
| W1:134.3 | The major difficulty that you find in genuine forgiveness on your | part is that you still believe you must forgive the truth and not |
| W1:135.17 | continuity of any old ideas and sick beliefs. Anticipation plays no | part at all, for present confidence directs the way. |
| W1:135.22 | will anticipate that time today with present confidence, for this is | part of what was planned for us. We will be sure that everything we |
| W1:135.27 | of hope reborn in you, for now you come without defense to learn the | part for you within the plan of God. What little plans or magical |
| W1:136.5 | It is this quick forgetting of the | part you play in making your “reality” which makes defenses seem to |
| W1:138.1 | we think is real. Creation knows no opposite. But here is opposition | part of being “real.” |
| W1:139.5 | is no doubt of this, and yet you doubt it. But you do not ask what | part of you can really doubt yourself. It cannot really be a part of |
| W1:139.5 | what part of you can really doubt yourself. It cannot really be a | part of you that asks this question, for it asks of one who knows the |
| W1:139.5 | asks this question, for it asks of one who knows the answer. Were it | part of you, certainty would be impossible. |
| W1:139.9 | yourself. Look lovingly on them that they may know that they are | part of you and you of them. This does Atonement teach and |
| W1:139.12 | is the recall how dear our brothers are to us in truth, how much a | part of us is every mind, how faithful they have really been to us, |
| W1:R4.1 | Now we review again, this time aware we are preparing for the second | part of learning how the truth can be applied. Today we will begin to |
| W1:151.12 | Such is your resurrection, for your life is not a | part of anything you see. It stands beyond the body and the world, |
| W1:152.2 | If you have the gift of everything, can loss be real? Can pain be | part of peace, or grief of joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a mind |
| W1:152.3 | about. For if what is not true is true as well as what is true, then | part of truth is false, and truth has lost its meaning. Nothing but |
| W1:154.1 | decision off, and to delay commitment to our function. It is not our | part to judge our worth, nor can we know what role is best for us; |
| W1:154.1 | we can do within a larger plan we cannot see in its entirety. Our | part is cast in Heaven, not in hell. And what we think is weakness |
| W1:154.2 | applied, for what, to whom, and when, He chooses and accepts your | part for you. He does not work without your own consent, but He is |
| W1:154.5 | or where they should be carried, he is failing to perform his proper | part as bringer of the Word. |
| W1:154.7 | by giving all the messages away. The messengers of God perform their | part by their acceptance of His messages as for themselves and show |
| W1:154.9 | who are now the messengers of God receive His messages, for that is | part of your appointed role. He has not failed to offer what you |
| W1:154.9 | to offer what you need, nor has it been left unaccepted. Yet another | part of your appointed task is yet to be accomplished. He Who has |
| W1:156.3 | lives. What lives is holy as Himself because what shares His life is | part of Holiness and could no more be sinful than the sun could |
| W1:160.1 | you are unknown to you. What is your Self remains an alien to the | part of you which thinks that it is real but different from yourself. |
| W1:161.2 | Complete abstraction is the natural condition of the mind. But | part of it is now unnatural. It does not look on everything as one. |
| W1:163.9 | we share with You and with all living things, to be like You and | part of You forever. We accept Your thoughts as ours, and our will is |
| W1:164.5 | This is the day when vain imaginings | part like a curtain to reveal what lies beyond them. Now is what is |
| W1:169.5 | words are meaningless. There are no lips to speak them and no | part of mind sufficiently distinct to feel that it is now aware of |
| W1:169.8 | as it always was; forever to remain as it is now. We merely take the | part assigned long since and fully recognized as perfectly fulfilled |
| W1:169.10 | Suffice it, then, that you have work to do to play your | part. The ending must remain obscure to you until your part is done. |
| W1:169.10 | to play your part. The ending must remain obscure to you until your | part is done. It does not matter. For your part is still what all the |
| W1:169.10 | obscure to you until your part is done. It does not matter. For your | part is still what all the rest depends on. As you take the role |
| W1:169.12 | bless the world? How could you finally attain to it forever while a | part of you remains outside, unknowing, unawakened, and in need of |
| W1:170.11 | perceive their own confusion in fear's “enemy,” its cruelty as now a | part of love. And what becomes more fearful than the heart of Love |
| W1:R5.10 | incomplete. It waits for you, as I do. I am incomplete without your | part in me. And as I am made whole, we go together to our ancient |
| W1:183.9 | as sole Creator of reality. And you acknowledge also that His Son is | part of Him, creating in His Name. Sit silently, and let His Name |
| W1:183.10 | forgot and offer it your own remembering. You can accept today the | part you play in its salvation and your own as well, and both can be |
| W1:186.1 | but that which has been given you. It offers your acceptance of a | part assigned to you, without insisting on another role. It does not |
| W1:186.2 | perfectly accomplished. All that we are asked to do is to accept our | part in genuine humility and not deny with self-deceiving arrogance |
| W1:186.2 | have the strength to do. Our minds are suited perfectly to take the | part assigned to us by One Who knows us well. |
| W1:186.5 | value to it. If God's Voice assures you that salvation needs your | part and that the whole depends on you, be sure that it is so. The |
| W1:187.10 | from Him Who is our Source; not distant from one brother who is | part of our One Self Whose innocence has joined us all as one, we |
| W1:189.8 | He Who knows the way to you? You need not know the way to Him. Your | part is simply to allow all obstacles that you have interposed |
| W1:189.8 | and God the Father to be quietly removed forever. God will do His | part in joyful and immediate response. Ask and receive. But do not |
| W1:189.10 | our own as well, be done in us and in the world, that it becomes a | part of Heaven now. Amen. |
| W1:190.3 | is no pain. If pain is real, there is no God. For vengeance is not | part of love. And fear, denying love and using pain to prove that God |
| W1:191.4 | gone. In this one fact is sinlessness proclaimed to be forever | part of everything, the central core of its existence, and its |
| W1:194.6 | to give as much consistent effort as you can to make it be a | part of you. As it becomes a thought which rules your mind, a habit |
| W1:197.4 | matter if another thinks your gifts unworthy. In his mind there is a | part that joins with yours in thanking you. It does not matter if |
| W1:197.7 | to all They have created has no end, for gratitude remains a | part of love. |
| W1:198.2 | It is not a law that knowledge understands, for freedom is a | part of knowledge. To condemn is thus impossible in truth. What seems |
| W1:199.3 | in it and lives united with the home that it has made. It is a | part of the illusion that has sheltered it from being found illusory |
| W1:199.5 | Cherish today's idea, and practice it today and every day. Make it a | part of every practice period you take. There is no thought that will |
| W2:I.8 | And so we start upon the final | part of this one holy year which we have spent together in the search |
| W2:223.1 | and I do not exist apart from Him. He has no thoughts that are not | part of me, and I have none but those which are of Him. |
| W2:228.2 | that Source to enter in a body and to die. My holiness remains a | part of me, as I am part of You. And my mistakes about myself are |
| W2:228.2 | in a body and to die. My holiness remains a part of me, as I am | part of You. And my mistakes about myself are dreams. I let them go |
| W2:WS.2 | So the thought which has the power to heal the split became a | part of every fragment of the mind that still was one but failed to |
| W2:235.2 | is mine. Your Love created me and made my sinlessness forever | part of You. I have no guilt or sin in me, for there is none in You. |
| W2:238.1 | would give Your Son to me in certainty that He is safe Who still is | part of You and yet is mine because He is my Self. |
| W2:240.1 | We are the Son of God. There is no fear in us, for we are each a | part of Love Itself. |
| W2:243.2 | honor all its parts, in which I am included. We are one because each | part contains Your memory, and truth must shine in all of us as one. |
| W2:244.2 | come to threaten God Himself or make afraid what will forever be a | part of Him? |
| W2:247.2 | Your Sons. Your Fatherhood created them and gave them all to me as | part of You and my own Self as well. Today I honor You through them, |
| W2:248.1 | let me be as faithful in disowning falsity. Whatever suffers is not | part of me. What grieves is not myself. What is in pain is but |
| W2:260.1 | I did. Yet as Your thought, I have not left my Source, remaining | part of What created me. Your Son, my Father, calls on You today. Let |
| W2:262.1 | as a stranger to his Father, nor as stranger to myself. For he is | part of me and I of him, and we are part of You Who are our Source, |
| W2:262.1 | as stranger to myself. For he is part of me and I of him, and we are | part of You Who are our Source, eternally united in Your Love, |
| W2:WIC.2 | of despair. For hope forever will abide in Him. Your mind is | part of His and His of yours. He is the part in which God's Answer |
| W2:WIC.2 | abide in Him. Your mind is part of His and His of yours. He is the | part in which God's Answer lies, where all decisions are already made |
| W2:WIC.3 | at peace within the Heaven of your holy mind. This is the only | part of you that has reality in truth. The rest is dreams. Yet will |
| W2:278.1 | lost to all reality. For truth is free, and what is bound is not a | part of truth. |
| W2:283.2 | with God our Father as our only Source and everything created | part of us. And so we offer blessing to all things, uniting lovingly |
| W2:285.2 | to sanity. Your Son is still as You created him. My holiness is | part of me and also part of You. And what can alter Holiness Itself? |
| W2:285.2 | Son is still as You created him. My holiness is part of me and also | part of You. And what can alter Holiness Itself? |
| W2:WISC.1 | merely the correction of mistakes and the return of sanity. It is a | part of the condition which restores the never-lost and |
| W2:317.1 | to fill—a role for me alone. Salvation waits until I take this | part as what I choose to do. Until I make this choice, I am the slave |
| W2:318.1 | parts have but one purpose and one aim? How could there be a single | part that stands aside or one of more or less importance than the |
| W2:WICR.3 | for in creation is His Will complete in every aspect, making every | part container of the whole. Its oneness is forever guaranteed |
| W2:WICR.5 | Whose holiness His own creation shares; Whose holiness is still a | part of us. |
| W2:328.2 | peace. And happily I share that will which You, my Father, gave as | part of me. |
| W2:350.1 | What we forgive becomes a | part of us as we perceive ourselves. The Son of God incorporates all |
| W2:WAI.3 | We are the bringers of salvation. We accept our | part as saviors of the world, which through our joint forgiveness is |
| W2:WAI.3 | the gates of Heaven. Knowledge will return when we have done our | part. We are concerned only with giving welcome to the truth. |
| W2:FL.3 | our own. For all that we forgive we will not fail to recognize as | part of God Himself. And thus His memory is given back completely and |
| M:3.3 | simply to say that any level of the teaching-learning situation is | part of God's plan for Atonement, and His plan can have no levels, |
| M:6.3 | they have done that, they have also given the outcome, for that is | part of the gift. No one can give if he is concerned with the result |
| M:6.3 | giver nor the receiver would have the gift. Trust is an essential | part of giving; in fact, it is the part that makes sharing possible, |
| M:6.3 | the gift. Trust is an essential part of giving; in fact, it is the | part that makes sharing possible, the part that guarantees the giver |
| M:6.3 | of giving; in fact, it is the part that makes sharing possible, the | part that guarantees the giver will not lose but only gain. Who gives |
| M:7.6 | to the exclusion of the patient. It is a failure to recognize him as | part of the self and thus represents a confusion in identity. |
| M:9.1 | Remember that no one is where he is by accident, and chance plays no | part in God's plan. It is most unlikely that changes in his attitudes |
| M:16.2 | They are not yet ready for such lack of structuring on their own | part. What must they do to learn to give the day to God? There are |
| M:21.1 | Strictly speaking, words play no | part at all in healing. The motivating factor is prayer, or asking. |
| M:23.1 | What does calling on his name confer? Why is the appeal to him | part of healing? |
| M:23.2 | created him, and in so doing he has recognized all living things as | part of him. There is now no limit on his power, because it is the |
| M:23.3 | The whole relationship of the Son to the Father lies in him. His | part in the Sonship is also yours, and his completed learning |
| M:24.3 | beliefs. His ego will be enough for him to cope with, and it is not | part of wisdom to add sectarian controversies to his burdens. Nor |
| M:27.4 | The curious belief that there is | part of dying things that may go on apart from what will die does not |
| M:27.7 | could be stated thus: accept no compromise in which death plays a | part. Do not believe in cruelty nor let attack conceal the truth from |

| Tx:4.41 | Atonement, a message which in its totality transcends the sum of its | parts. Christmas is not a time; it is a state of mind. The Christ |
| Tx:5.33 | part of God, it is also the idea of yourself as well as of all the | parts of God. The idea of the Holy Spirit shares the property of |
| Tx:5.53 | fades away and is undone in the presence of the attraction of the | parts of the Sonship, which hear the call of the Holy Spirit to be as |
| Tx:5.56 | you forsake your brothers. Therefore, you can really share only the | parts of your thoughts which are of Him and which He also keeps for |
| Tx:8.36 | into something whose power is far beyond the power of its separate | parts. By not being separate, the Will of God is established in ours |
| Tx:8.70 | knowledge and perception. In perception the whole is built up of | parts, which can separate and reassemble in different constellations. |
| Tx:10.53 | it perceives by breaking it up into small and disconnected | parts without meaningful relationships and thus without meaning. The |

| Tx:15.47 | You cannot love | parts of reality and understand what love means. If you would love |

| Tx:18.56 | But the communication is internal. [It is not made up of different | parts which reach each other.] Mind reaches to itself. It does not go |
| Tx:19.6 | only if the mind is limited to the body and divided into little | parts of seeming wholeness but without connection. This will not harm |
| Tx:20.37 | Only in time can anything be lost, and never lost forever. So do the | parts of God's Son gradually join in time, and with each joining is |
| Tx:20.58 | nothing in it that is not consistent. The seeming inconsistencies or | parts you find more difficult than others are merely indications of |
| Tx:21.63 | nothing in between, how can what enters part be kept away from other | parts? Reason would tell you this. But think what you must recognize |
| Tx:24.41 | here, a scrap from there, and wove a picture out of nothing. For the | parts do not belong together, and the whole contributes nothing to |

| Tx:8.4 | that you cannot understand the state which prevails within it. Your | past learning must have taught you the wrong things simply because it |

| Tx:13.1 | is why the Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He teaches that the | past does not exist, a fact which belongs to the sphere of knowledge |
| Tx:13.5 | in the same light and therefore one. Everyone seen without the | past thus brings you nearer to the end of time by bringing healed and |
| Tx:13.11 | and having done so, they will condemn, linking the future to the | past as is the ego's law. Fidelity unto this law lets no light in, |
| Tx:13.11 | are guilty, and so they must condemn. Between the future and the | past, the laws of God must intervene if you would free yourselves. |
| Tx:13.13 | You will accept your treasure, and if you place your faith in the | past, the future will be like it. Whatever you hold as dear, you |
| Tx:13.14 | You do not believe the Son of God is guiltless because you see the | past and see him not. When you condemn a brother, you are saying, “I |
| Tx:13.14 | the witness unto yours. You could as easily have freed him from the | past and lifted from his mind the cloud of guilt that binds him to |
| Tx:13.23 | When you maintain that you are guilty but the source lies in the | past, you are not looking inward. The past is not in you. Your weird |
| Tx:13.23 | but the source lies in the past, you are not looking inward. The | past is not in you. Your weird associations to it have no meaning in |
| Tx:13.23 | all. Can you expect to use your brothers as a means to “solve” the | past and still to see them as they really are? Salvation is not found |
| Tx:13.23 | problems which are not there. You wanted not salvation in the | past. Would you impose your idle wishes on the present and hope to |
| Tx:13.24 | then, to be not as you were. Use no relationship to hold you to the | past, but with each one each day be born again. A minute, even less, |
| Tx:13.24 | born again. A minute, even less, will be enough to free you from the | past and give your mind in peace over to the Atonement. When everyone |
| Tx:13.28 | you. Look through the cloud of guilt that dims your vision, and look | past darkness to the holy place where you will see the light. The |
| Tx:13.36 | Nothing destructive ever was or will be. The war, the guilt, the | past are gone as one into the unreality from which they came. |
| Tx:13.62 | All this lies in the Holy Spirit's plan to free you from the | past and open up the way to freedom for you. For truth is true. What |
| Tx:14.38 | lay in the decision to be not as you were. Thus, truth was made | past, and the present was dedicated to illusion. And the past, too, |
| Tx:14.38 | was made past, and the present was dedicated to illusion. And the | past, too, was changed and interposed between what always was and |
| Tx:14.38 | too, was changed and interposed between what always was and now. The | past which you remember never was and represents only the denial of |
| Tx:14.60 | forever from everything that you have taught yourselves in the | past by showing you only what you are now. Learning has been |
| Tx:14.60 | before its effects are manifest. Learning is therefore in the | past, but its influence determines the present by giving it whatever |
| Tx:14.60 | can help you understand the present or teach you how to undo the | past. Your past is what you have taught yourselves. Let it all go. Do |
| Tx:14.60 | you understand the present or teach you how to undo the past. Your | past is what you have taught yourselves. Let it all go. Do not |
| Tx:14.65 | And so I do not know how to respond to it. And I will not use my own | past learning as the light to guide me now. |
| Tx:14.69 | has corrected already. They do not exist in His Mind at all. For the | past binds Him not and therefore binds not you. He does not see time |
| Tx:14.70 | He Who has freed you from the | past would teach you are free of it. He would but have you accept His |
| Tx:15.6 | ego allows anyone to look upon with some amount of equanimity is the | past. And even there its only value is that it is no more. |
| Tx:15.7 | And how terrifying! For underneath its fanatical insistence that the | past and future be the same is hidden a far more insidious threat to |
| Tx:15.9 | undo all of this now. Fear is not of the present but only of the | past and future, which do not exist. There is no fear in the present |
| Tx:15.9 | in the present when each instant stands clear and separated from the | past, without its shadow reaching out into the future. Each instant |
| Tx:15.9 | a clean, untarnished birth, in which the Son of God emerges from the | past into the present. And the present extends forever. It is so |
| Tx:15.10 | This lesson takes no time. For what is time without a | past and future? It has taken time to misguide you so completely, but |
| Tx:15.10 | of it as all there is of time. Nothing can reach you here out of the | past, and it is here that you are completely absolved, completely |
| Tx:15.16 | gently in Him. In the blessed instant, you will let go all your | past learning, and the Holy Spirit will quickly offer you the whole |
| Tx:15.35 | to you. You must decide on when it is. Delay it not. For beyond the | past and future, in which you will not find it, it stands in |
| Tx:15.45 | is to suspend judgment entirely. Judgment always rests on the | past, for past experience is the basis on which you judge. Judgment |
| Tx:15.45 | to suspend judgment entirely. Judgment always rests on the past, for | past experience is the basis on which you judge. Judgment becomes |
| Tx:15.45 | basis on which you judge. Judgment becomes impossible without the | past, for without it you do not understand anything. You would make |
| Tx:15.46 | The | past is the ego's chief learning device, for it is in the past that |
| Tx:15.46 | The past is the ego's chief learning device, for it is in the | past that you learned to define your own needs and acquired methods |
| Tx:15.47 | special aspects of the Sonship can give you more than others? The | past has taught you this. Yet the holy instant teaches you it is not |
| Tx:15.52 | on no one to make them different. Without the values from the | past, you would see them all the same and like yourself. Nor would |
| Tx:15.53 | instant parallels His knowing by bringing all perception out of the | past, thus removing the frame of reference you have built by which to |
| Tx:15.53 | timelessness lies only here. For in the holy instant, free of the | past, you see that love is in you, and you have no need to look |
| Tx:15.64 | as is truth. There is no exclusion in the holy instant because the | past is gone and with it goes the whole basis for exclusion. Without |
| Tx:16.3 | know what healing is. All you have learned of empathy is from the | past. And there is nothing from the past that you would share, for |
| Tx:16.3 | learned of empathy is from the past. And there is nothing from the | past that you would share, for there is nothing there that you would |

| Tx:16.71 | No special relationship is experienced in the present. Shades of the | past envelop it and make it what it is. It has no meaning in the |

| Tx:16.78 | illusions you have held against your brothers. Their reality has no | past, and only illusions can be forgiven. God holds nothing against |
| Tx:17.12 | all illusions which had twisted your perception and fixed it on the | past. The smallest leaf becomes a thing of wonder and a blade of |

| Tx:17.20 | has been forgotten, what remains is eternal. And the transformed | past is made like the present. No longer does the past conflict with |
| Tx:17.20 | the transformed past is made like the present. No longer does the | past conflict with now. This continuity extends the present by |
| Tx:17.20 | Who gives it life and beauty. That is why Atonement centers on the | past, which is the source of separation, and where it must be undone. |
| Tx:17.23 | unholy by seeing it where it is not and as it is not. Give the | past to Him Who can change your mind about it for you. But first be |
| Tx:17.23 | for you. But first be sure you fully realize what you have made the | past to represent and why. |
| Tx:17.24 | In brief, the | past is now your justification for entering into a continuing, unholy |
| Tx:17.24 | to which the present is referred for meaning is an illusion of the | past in which those elements which fit the purpose of the unholy |
| Tx:17.24 | all the rest let go. And what is thus let go is all the truth the | past could ever offer to the present as witnesses for its reality, |
| Tx:17.59 | have meant. And you will be wrong. Not only is your judgment in the | past, but you have no idea what should happen. No goal was set with |
| Tx:17.70 | this in perfect safety. Yet for all its might, so great it reaches | past the stars and to the universe that lies beyond them, your little |
| Tx:17.71 | what you really blame him for is what you did to him. It is not his | past but yours you hold against him. And you lack faith in him |
| Tx:17.72 | or will ever enter. And every situation was thus made free of the | past, which would have made it purposeless. |
| Tx:18.30 | not time worry you, for all the fear that you experience is really | past. Time has been readjusted to help us do together what your |
| Tx:18.30 | us do together what your separate pasts would hinder. You have gone | past fear, for no two minds can join in the desire for love without |
| Tx:18.31 | extend back into darkness and forward unto God to shine away the | past and so make room for His eternal Presence, in which everything |
| Tx:18.40 | is not only possible but has already happened. And that is why the | past has gone. It never happened in reality. Only in your minds, |
| Tx:18.60 | seeming quality. Time is not relevant; it can occur with something | past, present, or anticipated. The “something” can be anything and |
| Tx:18.65 | remembered or anticipated, but never experienced just now. Only its | past and future make it seem real. Time controls it entirely, for sin |
| Tx:18.65 | attraction is imaginary and therefore must be thought of in the | past or in the future. |
| Tx:18.66 | reservation unless just for an instant you are willing to see no | past or future. You cannot prepare for it without placing it in the |
| Tx:18.69 | your mind. Here is the quick and open door through which you slip | past centuries of effort and escape from time. This is the way in |
| Tx:18.69 | sin loses all attraction right now. For here is time denied and | past and future gone. Who need do nothing has no need for time. To do |
| Tx:18.92 | Let your Guide teach you their unsubstantial nature as He leads you | past them, for beneath them is a world of light whereon they cast no |
| Tx:19.10 | therefore share it. By faith you offer the gift of freedom from the | past, which you received. You do not use anything your brother has |
| Tx:19.10 | condemn him now. You freely choose to overlook his errors, looking | past all barriers between your self and his and seeing them as one. |
| Tx:19.12 | upon himself. Faith sees him only now because it looks not to the | past to judge him, but would see in him only what it would see in |
| Tx:19.23 | the “truth” from which escape will always be impossible. This is his | past, his present, and his future. For he has somehow managed to |
| Tx:19.37 | of the world outside. Yet peace will gently cover them, extending | past completely unhindered. The extension of the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:19.49 | which it would unite in holy union and completion. As love must look | past fear, so must fear see love not. For love contains the end of |
| Tx:19.64 | through to bless the tired world! Can it be difficult for us to walk | past barriers together when you have joined the limitless? The end of |
| Tx:19.78 | a shadow cannot kill. What is a shadow to the living? They but walk | past, and it is gone. But what of those whose dedication it is not to |
| Tx:20.11 | You have the vision now to look | past all illusions. It has been given you to see no thorns, no |
| Tx:20.14 | we join in glad awareness that the Son of God is risen from the | past and has awakened to the present. Now is he free, unlimited in |
| Tx:20.15 | And by the hands that gave it to each other shall both of you be led | past fear to love. |
| Tx:20.42 | All that it ever held or will ever hold is here right now. The | past takes nothing from it, and the future will add no more. Here, |
| Tx:20.57 | with God as equal things are like unto each other. Idolatry is | past and meaningless. Perhaps you fear each other a little yet; |
| Tx:21.10 | Beyond the body, beyond the sun and stars, | past everything you see and yet somehow familiar, is an arc of golden |
| Tx:21.40 | as means to help the blind to see. But in their seeing, they look | past it, as do you. The faith and the belief you gave it belongs |
| Tx:21.44 | insanity and recognize its madness. Your faith is moving inward, | past insanity and on to reason. And what your reason tells you now, |
| Tx:21.55 | clear. Only the totally insane can disregard them, and you have gone | past this. Reason is a means which serves the Holy Spirit's purpose |

| Tx:22.57 | form of suffering could block your sight, preventing you from seeing | past it? And what illusion could there be you will not recognize as a |
| Tx:23.54 | is in awareness, and only love shines upon them forever. It is their | past, their present, and their future always the same, eternally |
| Tx:24.57 | till what has been assigned to you is done and he is risen from the | past. He who condemned himself, and you as well, is given you to save |
| Tx:24.67 | is there any way to learn what this condition means. Not till you go | past learning to the Given; not till you make again a holy home for |

| Tx:25.12 | is no exception, nor will there ever be. The only value that the | past can hold is that you learn it gave you no rewards that you would |
| Tx:25.15 | Its | past has failed. Be glad that it is gone within your mind to darken |
| Tx:26.14 | that it is one which has no resolution, you have made it great and | past the hope of healing. You deny the miracle of justice can be fair. |
| Tx:26.20 | upon perception. They are brought together, and only one continues | past the gate where Oneness is. Salvation is a borderland where place |
| Tx:26.25 | And what is charity within the world gives way to simple justice | past the gate that opens into Heaven. No one forgives unless he has |
| Tx:26.33 | time, though it has long since gone. You think you live in what is | past. Each thing you look upon you saw but for an instant, long ago |
| Tx:26.34 | still be there for you to choose to be your teacher. Only in the | past—an ancient past, too short to make a world in answer to |
| Tx:26.34 | for you to choose to be your teacher. Only in the past—an ancient | past, too short to make a world in answer to creation—did this |
| Tx:26.36 | is the great release from time. It is the key to learning that the | past is over. Madness speaks no more. There is no other teacher and |
| Tx:26.37 | a hindrance to the place whereon he stands? Is any echo from the | past that he may hear a fact in what is there to hear where he is |
| Tx:26.37 | where he really is? The unforgiven is a voice that calls out from a | past forever more gone by. And everything which points to it as real |
| Tx:26.37 | of what is really now and here. Is this a hindrance to the truth the | past is gone and cannot be returned to you? And do you want that |
| Tx:26.38 | Can sin withstand the Will of God? Can it be up to you to see the | past and put it in the present? You can not go back. And everything |
| Tx:26.38 | go back. And everything that points the way in the direction of the | past but sets you on a mission whose accomplishment can only be |
| Tx:26.39 | will teach you only what is now.] A dreadful instant in a distant | past, now perfectly corrected, is of no concern nor value. Let the |
| Tx:26.39 | its place. And now you are a part of resurrection, not of death. No | past illusions have the power to keep you in a place of death, a |
| Tx:26.40 | And will you not forgive him now because he made an error in the | past that God remembers not and is not there? Now you are shifting |
| Tx:26.40 | and is not there? Now you are shifting back and forth between the | past and present. Sometimes the past seems real, as if it were the |
| Tx:26.40 | shifting back and forth between the past and present. Sometimes the | past seems real, as if it were the present. Voices from the past are |
| Tx:26.40 | the past seems real, as if it were the present. Voices from the | past are heard and then are doubted. You are like to one who still |
| Tx:26.40 | This is the borderland between the worlds, the bridge between the | past and present. Here the shadow of the past remains, but still a |
| Tx:26.40 | the bridge between the past and present. Here the shadow of the | past remains, but still a present light is dimly recognized. Once it |
| Tx:26.40 | seen, this light can never be forgotten. It must draw you from the | past into the present, where you really are. |
| Tx:26.41 | not change the laws of time or of eternity. They come from what is | past and gone and hinder not the true existence of the here and now. |
| Tx:26.42 | so you die each day to live again until you cross the gap between | past and present, which is not a gap at all. Such is each life—a |
| Tx:26.43 | Forgive the | past and let it go, for it is gone. You stand no longer on the ground |
| Tx:26.52 | Yet the belief that it is real has made some errors seem forever | past the hope of healing and the lasting grounds for hell. If this |
| Tx:27.12 | achieved is merely this—to let the body have no purpose from the | past, when you were sure you knew its purpose was to foster guilt. |
| Tx:27.59 | a world of sin. The miracle forgives because it stands for what is | past forgiveness and is true. How foolish and insane it is to think a |
| Tx:28.1 | of them and loved them for a little while. The miracle but shows the | past is gone, and what has truly gone has no effects. Remembering a |
| Tx:28.2 | its effects? Remembering is as selective as perception, being its | past tense. It is perception of the past as if it were occurring now |
| Tx:28.2 | as perception, being its past tense. It is perception of the | past as if it were occurring now and still were there to see. Memory, |
| Tx:28.4 | use of memory, for God Himself is there. Yet this is not a memory of | past events, but only of a present state. You are so long accustomed |
| Tx:28.4 | You are so long accustomed to believe that memory holds only what is | past that it is hard for you to realize it is a skill that can |
| Tx:28.4 | you let the world impose on you. There is no link of memory to the | past. If you would have it there, then there it is. But only your |
| Tx:28.5 | apart from time. He does not seek to use it as a means to keep the | past, but rather as a way to let it go. Memory holds the message it |
| Tx:28.5 | what it is. Committed to its vaults, the history of all the body's | past is hidden there. All of the strange associations made to keep |
| Tx:28.5 | is hidden there. All of the strange associations made to keep the | past alive, the present dead, are stored within it, waiting your |
| Tx:28.6 | away nor can restore. And yet you make strange use of it, as if the | past had caused the present, which is but a consequence in which no |
| Tx:28.6 | will not last. No change can be made in the present if its cause is | past. Only the past is held in memory as you make use of it, and so |
| Tx:28.6 | No change can be made in the present if its cause is past. Only the | past is held in memory as you make use of it, and so it is a way to |
| Tx:28.6 | held in memory as you make use of it, and so it is a way to hold the | past against the now. |
| Tx:28.8 | Holy Spirit has remembered for you, when you would forget. It is not | past because He let It not be unremembered. It has never changed |
| Tx:28.9 | changeless and as perfect as Itself. Its memory does not lie in the | past nor await the future. It is not revealed in miracles. They but |
| Tx:28.13 | to keep the memory away. Its own remembering has gone. There is no | past to keep its fearful image in the way of glad awakening to |
| Tx:28.13 | from before his own remembering came in between the present and the | past to shut them out. |
| Tx:28.14 | There never was a cause beside It that could generate a different | past or future. Its effects are changelessly eternal, beyond fear, |
| Tx:28.14 | or future. Its effects are changelessly eternal, beyond fear, and | past the world of sin entirely. |
| Tx:29.3 | obstacle that peace must flow across has not yet gone. The rest are | past, but this one still remains to block your path and make the way |
| Tx:29.48 | seek outside yourself. Let us forget the purpose of the world the | past has given it. For otherwise, the future will be like the past |
| Tx:29.48 | the past has given it. For otherwise, the future will be like the | past and but a series of depressing dreams in which all idols fail |
| Tx:29.57 | This is the anti-Christ—the strange idea there is a power | past omnipotence, a place beyond the infinite, a time transcending |
| Tx:30.64 | surely as His Father's love rests upon Him. His gratitude to you is | past your understanding, for you have enabled Him to rise from chains |
| Tx:30.75 | meaning of a fixed belief that some appearances are harder to look | past than others are. It always means you think forgiveness must be |
| Tx:31.10 | as itself. How wrong are you who fail to hear the call that echoes | past each seeming call to death, that sings behind each murderous |
| Tx:31.12 | is he born again to you, and you are born again to him without the | past that sentenced him to die, and you with him. Now is he free to |

| Tx:31.73 | and futility. Yet it need not be fixed unless you choose to hold it | past the hope of change and keep it static and concealed within your |

| W1:3.2 | The point of the exercises is to help you clear your mind of all | past associations, to see things exactly as they appear to you now, |
| W1:7.9 | Do you see a cup, or are you merely reviewing your | past experiences of picking up a cup, being thirsty, drinking from a |
| W1:7.9 | so on? Are not your aesthetic reactions to the cup, too, based on | past experiences? How else would you know whether or not this kind of |
| W1:7.9 | it? What do you know about this cup except what you learned in the | past? You would have no idea what this cup is except for your past |
| W1:7.9 | in the past? You would have no idea what this cup is except for your | past learning. Do you, then, really see it? |
| W1:7.11 | I see only the | past in this pencil. I see only the past in this shoe. I see only the |
| W1:7.11 | I see only the past in this pencil. I see only the | past in this shoe. I see only the past in this hand. I see only the |
| W1:7.11 | in this pencil. I see only the past in this shoe. I see only the | past in this hand. I see only the past in that body. I see only the |
| W1:7.11 | past in this shoe. I see only the past in this hand. I see only the | past in that body. I see only the past in that face. |
| W1:7.11 | past in this hand. I see only the past in that body. I see only the | past in that face. |
| W1:8.1 | This idea is, of course, the reason why you see only the | past. No one really sees anything. He sees only his thoughts |
| W1:8.1 | his thoughts projected outward. The mind's preoccupation with the | past is the cause of the total misconception about time from which |
| W1:8.2 | The only wholly true thought one can hold about the | past is that it is not here. To think about it at all is therefore to |
| W1:8.2 | few minds have realized what is actually entailed in picturing the | past or in anticipating the future. The mind is actually blank when |
| W1:8.9 | But my mind is preoccupied with | past thoughts. |
| W1:10.3 | are meaningless, outside rather than within, and then stressed their | past rather than their present status. Now we are emphasizing that |
| W1:21.2 | Then close your eyes and search your mind carefully for situations | past, present or anticipated, which arouse anger in you. The anger |
| W1:28.3 | mind to what it is and what it is for. You are not defining it in | past terms. You are asking what it is, rather than telling it what it |
| W1:41.4 | all you see? Today we will make our first real attempt to get | past this dark and heavy cloud and to go through it to the light |
| W1:41.5 | to think of anything. Try instead to get a sense of turning inward, | past all the idle thoughts of the world. Try to enter very deeply |
| W1:41.6 | and all the foolish thoughts of the world. You are trying to reach | past all these things. You are trying to leave appearances and |
| W1:44.7 | go every kind of interference and intrusion by quietly sinking | past them. Your mind cannot be stopped in this unless you choose to |
| W1:45.8 | Then try to go | past all the unreal thoughts that cover the truth in your mind, and |
| W1:47.4 | Today we will try to reach | past your own weakness to the Source of real strength. Four |
| W1:47.6 | Now try to slip | past all concerns related to your own sense of inadequacy. It is |
| W1:49.4 | Listen in deep silence. Be very still, and open your mind. Go | past all the raucous shrieks and sick imaginings that cover your real |
| W1:52.3 | [7] I see only the | past. As I look about, I condemn the world I look upon. I call this |
| W1:52.3 | I condemn the world I look upon. I call this seeing. I hold the | past against everyone and everything, making them my “enemies.” When |
| W1:52.3 | I am, I will bless everyone and everything I see. There will be no | past and therefore no “enemies.” And I will look with love on all |
| W1:52.4 | [8] My mind is preoccupied with | past thoughts. I see only my own thoughts, and my mind is preoccupied |
| W1:52.4 | I see only my own thoughts, and my mind is preoccupied with the | past. What, then, can I see as it is? Let me remember that I look on |
| W1:52.4 | What, then, can I see as it is? Let me remember that I look on the | past to prevent the present from dawning on my mind. Let me |
| W1:52.4 | that I am trying to use time against God. Let me learn to give the | past away, realizing that in so doing I am giving up nothing. |
| W1:52.5 | I can see only what is now. The choice is not whether to see the | past or the present: it is whether to see or not. What I have chosen |
| W1:56.4 | let the door behind this world be opened for me that I may look | past it to the world that reflects the Love of God. |
| W1:56.5 | and in everything forever. And we who are part of Him will yet look | past all appearances and recognize the truth beyond them all. |
| W1:66.3 | Today we will try to go | past this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the truth about |
| W1:67.5 | drop away for a brief preparatory interval, and then try to reach | past all your images and preconceptions about yourself to the truth |
| W1:67.6 | to the truth about yourself. Yet perhaps you will succeed in going | past that and through the interval of thoughtlessness to the |
| W1:69.2 | get in touch with the salvation of the world. We are trying to see | past the veil of darkness that keeps it concealed. We are trying to |
| W1:69.5 | there is to see. Therefore you do not attempt to go through them and | past them, which is the only way in which you would be really |
| W1:69.6 | much you want to reach the light in you today—now. Determine to go | past the clouds. Reach out and touch them in your mind; brush them |
| W1:70.10 | of the external places where you have looked for salvation in the | past—in other people, in possessions, in various situations and |
| W1:70.12 | it is in them you have been looking for it. It is not there. It is | past the clouds and in the light beyond. Remember that you will have |
| W1:75.3 | passing of the old and the beginning of the new. No shadows from the | past remain to darken our sight and hide the world forgiveness offers |
| W1:75.7 | Dwell not upon the | past today. Keep a completely open mind, washed of all past ideas and |
| W1:75.7 | not upon the past today. Keep a completely open mind, washed of all | past ideas and clean of every concept you have made. You have |
| W1:75.11 | on this day there is a new beginning. Without the darkness of the | past upon your eyes, you cannot fail to see today. And what you see |
| W1:78.12 | everyone you meet and to the ones you think of or remember from the | past, allow the role of savior to be given that you may share it with |
| W1:92.4 | Strength overlooks these things by seeing | past appearances. It keeps its steady gaze upon the light that lies |
| W1:94.6 | to reach this goal except to lay all idols and self-images aside, go | past the long list of attributes, both “good” and “bad,” you have |
| W1:106.3 | not afraid today to circumvent the voices of the world; walk lightly | past their meaningless persuasion. Hear them not. Be still today, and |
| W1:106.3 | Hear them not. Be still today, and listen to the truth. Go | past all things which do not speak of Him Who holds your happiness |
| W1:106.11 | And they will hear the holy Word you hear. And when the hour is | past, you will again release a thousand more who pause to ask that |
| W1:109.3 | undismayed this thought will carry you through storms and strife, | past misery and pain, past loss and death, and onward to the |
| W1:109.3 | will carry you through storms and strife, past misery and pain, | past loss and death, and onward to the certainty of God. There is no |
| W1:109.5 | concerns, no burdens, no anxiety, no pain, no fear of future, and no | past regrets. In timelessness you rest, while time goes by without |
| W1:110.2 | any mind has made at any time or place. It is enough to heal the | past and make the future free. It is enough to let the present be |
| W1:110.3 | one to let redemption come to light the world and free it from the | past. |
| W1:110.4 | In this one thought is all the | past undone; the present saved to quietly extend into a timeless |
| W1:127.9 | learn. Let us give thanks today that we are spared a future like the | past. Today we leave the past behind us, never more to be remembered. |
| W1:127.9 | today that we are spared a future like the past. Today we leave the | past behind us, never more to be remembered. And we raise our eyes |
| W1:127.9 | our eyes upon a different present, where a future shines unlike the | past in every attribute. |
| W1:131.7 | wait for Heaven? It is here today. Time is the great illusion; it is | past or in the future. Yet this cannot be, if it is where God wills |
| W1:131.7 | where God wills His Son to be. How could the Will of God be in the | past or yet to happen? What He wills is now, without a past and |
| W1:131.7 | God be in the past or yet to happen? What He wills is now, without a | past and wholly futureless. It is as far removed from time as is a |
| W1:131.15 | sought; nothing before this door you really want, and only what lies | past it do you seek. |
| W1:131.17 | approach this door some day and through His aid slip effortlessly | past it to the light. Today that day has come. Today God keeps His |
| W1:132.3 | You free the | past from what you thought before. You free the future from all |
| W1:132.3 | time. Here in the present is the world set free. For as you let the | past be lifted and release the future from your ancient fears, you |
| W1:134.3 | and not illusions. You conceive of pardon as a vain attempt to look | past what is there; to overlook the truth in an unfounded effort to |
| W1:135.2 | it is this you do when you attempt to plan the future, activate the | past, or organize the present as you wish. You operate from the |
| W1:135.16 | emphasis to be controlled by learning and experience obtained from | past events and previous beliefs. It overlooks the present, for it |
| W1:135.16 | beliefs. It overlooks the present, for it rests on the idea the | past has taught enough to let the mind direct its future course. |
| W1:135.17 | it has learned before becomes the basis for its future goals. Its | past experience directs its choice of what will happen. And it does |
| W1:135.17 | now is everything it needs to guarantee a future quite unlike the | past without a continuity of any old ideas and sick beliefs. |
| W1:135.19 | not accept if you but knew that everything that happens, all events, | past, present, and to come, are gently planned by One Whose only |
| W1:151.12 | a part of anything you see. It stands beyond the body and the world, | past every witness for unholiness, within the Holy, holy as Itself. |
| W1:153.9 | We look | past dreams today and recognize that we need no defense because we |
| W1:155.6 | ahead of you, speak to them through illusion, for the road leads | past illusion now, while on the way you call to them that they may |
| W1:156.7 | you have wasted many, many years on just this foolish thought. The | past is gone with all its fantasies. They keep you bound no longer. |
| W1:156.7 | and mistake Him for the senseless, ancient dream that now is | past. |
| W1:157.2 | the door where learning ceases, and we catch a glimpse of what lies | past the highest reaches it can possibly attain. It leaves us there |
| W1:163.8 | illusion. This the stand we take today. And it is given us to look | past death and see the life beyond. |
| W1:164.1 | there—not in our sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks | past time and sees eternity as represented there. He hears the sounds |
| W1:165.6 | Now is all doubting | past, the journey's end made certain, and salvation given you. Now is |
| W1:169.1 | most lofty aspiration, for it leads beyond the world entirely. It is | past learning yet the goal of learning, for grace cannot come until |
| W1:169.6 | completely. It returns the mind into the endless present, where the | past and future cannot be conceived. It lies beyond salvation—past |
| W1:169.6 | the past and future cannot be conceived. It lies beyond salvation— | past all thought of time, forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. |
| W1:169.9 | things beyond and listen to words which explain what is to come is | past already. Yet what meaning can the words convey to those who |
| W1:I2.3 | there, but you cannot accept its presence. So we now attempt to go | past all defenses for a little while each day. No more than this is |
| W1:181.1 | to your awareness of the Self that lies beyond your own mistakes and | past his seeming sins as well as yours. |
| W1:181.2 | faith receives its only sure support from what you see in others | past their sins. For their mistakes, if focused on, are witnesses to |

| Tx:21.29 | to keep the bargain in the name of “fairness,” sometimes demanding | payment of yourself, perhaps more often of the other. Thus in the |

| Tx:4.8 | if you allow no change to enter into your ego, your Soul will find | peace. This profound confusion is possible only if one maintains that |

| Tx:5.83 | mind is stayed (or set) on Him,” a statement which means that God's | peace is set in the Holy Spirit because it is fixed on God. It is |
| Tx:5.83 | fixed on God. It is also fixed in you. You, then, are fixed in the | peace of God. The concept of “fixation” is also a very helpful one |

| Tx:6.19 | you are using it as a weapon for assault rather than as the call for | peace for which it was intended. The Apostles often misunderstood it |
| Tx:6.20 | they never could have quoted me as saying, “I come not to bring | peace but a sword.” This is clearly the exact opposite of everything |
| Tx:6.25 | this is the belief in separation. The wholeness of God, which is His | peace, cannot be appreciated except by a whole mind which recognizes |
| Tx:6.37 | to Him and for which He must speak, because that is what He is. The | peace of God lies in that message, and so the peace of God lies in |
| Tx:6.37 | is what He is. The peace of God lies in that message, and so the | peace of God lies in you. |
| Tx:6.38 | The great | peace of the Kingdom shines in your mind forever, but it must shine |

| Tx:6.56 | of communication arose as the ego's voice. It could not shatter the | peace of God, but it could shatter yours. God did not blot it out, |
| Tx:6.75 | you accept two thought systems which are in complete disagreement, | peace of mind is impossible. If you teach both, which you will surely |
| Tx:6.75 | both, you are teaching conflict and learning it. Yet you do want | peace, or you would not have called upon the Voice for Peace to help |
| Tx:6.75 | you do want peace, or you would not have called upon the Voice for | Peace to help you. His lesson is not insane; the conflict is. |
| Tx:6.78 | To have | peace, teach peace to learn it. |
| Tx:6.78 | To have peace, teach | peace to learn it. |
| Tx:6.89 | you are accepting it as it is. Since it is whole, you are teaching | peace because you believe in it. The final step will still be taken |
| Tx:6.90 | you learn that you learn what you teach and that you want to learn | peace. This is the condition for identifying with the Kingdom since |
| Tx:7.5 | Eternity is the indelible stamp of creation. The eternal are in | peace and joy forever. |
| Tx:7.27 | belong to it. Yet what is “treacherous” to the ego is faithful to | peace. The ego's “enemy” is therefore your friend. We said before |
| Tx:7.27 | recognize all whom you see as brothers, because only equals are at | peace. |
| Tx:7.61 | therefore has become essential. Vigilance has no place at all in | peace. It is necessary against beliefs which are not true and would |
| Tx:7.63 | in your minds without splitting them. If they cannot coexist in | peace and if you want peace, you must give up the idea of conflict |
| Tx:7.63 | splitting them. If they cannot coexist in peace and if you want | peace, you must give up the idea of conflict entirely and for all |
| Tx:7.67 | and you must be vigilant against this divided state, because only | peace can be extended. Your divided minds are blocking the extension |
| Tx:7.76 | He created of which you are a part, or you cannot learn of His | peace and accept His gift for yourself and as yourself. You cannot |
| Tx:7.80 | this as God Himself is lonely when His Sons do not know Him. The | peace of God is understanding this. There is only one way out of the |
| Tx:7.94 | impossible and extension inevitable. That is why there is perfect | peace in the Kingdom. Every Soul is fulfilling its function, and only |
| Tx:7.94 | Soul is fulfilling its function, and only complete fulfillment is | peace. |
| Tx:7.96 | as boundless as God's. Like His, it extends forever and in perfect | peace. Its radiance is so intense that it creates in perfect joy, and |
| Tx:7.97 | your identity and the extensions which maintain it in wholeness and | peace. Miracles are an expression of this confidence. They are |
| Tx:7.109 | Is it worthy to be a home for a Child of God? Does it protect his | peace and shine love upon him? Does it keep his heart untouched by |
| Tx:8.1 | objection. Knowledge is not the motivation for learning this course. | Peace is. As the prerequisite for knowledge, peace must be learned. |
| Tx:8.1 | learning this course. Peace is. As the prerequisite for knowledge, | peace must be learned. This is only because those who are in conflict |
| Tx:8.1 | This is only because those who are in conflict are not peaceful, and | peace is the condition of knowledge, because it is the condition of |
| Tx:8.3 | results to you. If you do not want them on the basis of loss of | peace, they will be removed from your mind for you. Every response to |
| Tx:8.3 | response to the ego is a call to war, and war does deprive you of | peace. Yet in this war there is no opponent. This is the |
| Tx:8.3 | is the reinterpretation of reality which you must make to secure | peace, and the only one you need ever make. |
| Tx:8.4 | Those whom you perceive as opponents are part of your | peace, which you are giving up by attacking them. How can you have |
| Tx:8.4 | share to have, but you do not give it up yourself. When you give up | peace, you are excluding yourself from it. This is a condition which |
| Tx:8.14 | glory lie within it. It is boundless in strength and in love and in | peace. It has no boundaries because its extension is unlimited, and |
| Tx:8.17 | To fulfill the Will of God perfectly is the only joy and | peace that can be fully known, because it is the only function that |
| Tx:8.25 | If God's Will for you is complete | peace and joy, unless you experience only this you must be refusing |
| Tx:8.25 | does not vacillate, being changeless forever. When you are not at | peace, it can only be because you do not believe you are in Him. Yet |
| Tx:8.25 | because you do not believe you are in Him. Yet He is all in all. His | peace is complete, and you must be included in it. His laws govern |
| Tx:8.29 | Do you not think the world needs | peace as much as you do? Do you not want to give it to the world as |
| Tx:8.35 | to be known. Can you be separated from your identification and be at | peace? Dissociation is not a solution; it is a delusion. The |
| Tx:8.39 | gave me] this confidence for both of us and all of us. I bring God's | peace back to all His Children, because I received it of Him for us |
| Tx:8.40 | Who is our home. Whenever fear intrudes anywhere along the road to | peace, it is always because the ego has attempted to join the journey |
| Tx:8.56 | mistrust it. This will lead you to hatred and attack and loss of | peace. |
| Tx:8.83 | of unconsciousness. Unconsciousness is impossible. You can rest in | peace only because you are awake. |
| Tx:9.39 | disagreement on anything else, but not on this. This, then, is where | peace abides. And you abide in peace when you so decide. Yet you |
| Tx:9.39 | but not on this. This, then, is where peace abides. And you abide in | peace when you so decide. Yet you cannot abide in peace unless you |
| Tx:9.39 | And you abide in peace when you so decide. Yet you cannot abide in | peace unless you accept the Atonement, because the Atonement is the |
| Tx:9.39 | unless you accept the Atonement, because the Atonement is the way to | peace. The reason is very simple and so obvious that it is often |
| Tx:9.61 | you will realize how much is up to you. When anything threatens your | peace of mind, ask yourself, |
| Tx:9.69 | brings more than merely lack of fear. In this decision lie joy and | peace and the glory of creation. Offer the Holy Spirit only your will |
| Tx:9.73 | If you realized the complete havoc this makes of your | peace of mind, you could not make such an insane decision. You make |
| Tx:9.73 | you want. It follows, then, that you want something other than | peace of mind, but you have not considered what it must be. Yet the |
| Tx:9.79 | can heal you because the value of God's Son is one. When I said, “My | peace I give unto you,” I meant it. Peace came from God through me to |
| Tx:9.79 | Son is one. When I said, “My peace I give unto you,” I meant it. | Peace came from God through me to you. It was for you, although you |
| Tx:9.80 | When a brother is sick, it is because he is not asking for | peace and therefore does not know he has it. The acceptance of peace |
| Tx:9.80 | for peace and therefore does not know he has it. The acceptance of | peace is the denial of illusion, and sickness is an illusion. Yet |
| Tx:9.81 | that you always receive as much as you accept. You could accept | peace now for everyone you meet and offer them perfect freedom from |
| Tx:9.83 | exist only because you honor them. Place honor where it is due, and | peace will be yours. It is your inheritance from your real Father. |
| Tx:9.84 | Only at the altar of God will you find | peace. And this altar is in you, because God put it there. His Voice |
| Tx:9.88 | God's laws will keep your minds at | peace, because peace is His Will, and His laws are established to |
| Tx:9.88 | God's laws will keep your minds at peace, because | peace is His Will, and His laws are established to uphold it. His are |
| Tx:9.88 | is without meaning because it is without God. You have given your | peace to the gods you made, but they are not there to take it from |
| Tx:9.90 | to interpose between yourself and your reality affect truth at all. | Peace is yours because God created you. And He created nothing else. |
| Tx:9.99 | is in everything He created, for His Son is everywhere. Look with | peace upon your brothers, and God will come rushing into your heart |
| Tx:10.23 | Will for His Son. Pain is not of Him, for He knows no attack and His | peace surrounds you silently. God is very quiet, for there is no |
| Tx:10.28 | gods that you can place before Him, and accept His Will for you in | peace. For you cannot accept it otherwise. |
| Tx:10.29 | comfort you. In the quiet of His temple, He waits to give you the | peace that is yours. Give His peace that you may enter the temple and |
| Tx:10.29 | His temple, He waits to give you the peace that is yours. Give His | peace that you may enter the temple and find it waiting for you. But |
| Tx:10.29 | carefully His temple, for He Himself dwells there and abides in | peace. You cannot enter God's Presence with the dark companions |
| Tx:10.32 | it is yours because it is His, and join with your brothers in His | peace. |
| Tx:10.33 | The | peace of your Soul lies in its limitlessness. Limit the peace you |
| Tx:10.33 | The peace of your Soul lies in its limitlessness. Limit the | peace you share, and your own Soul must be unknown to you. Every |

| Tx:10.38 | to Him, for otherwise he will not know the Father or the Son. | Peace be unto you who rest in God and in whom the whole Sonship rests. |
| Tx:10.65 | You will not find | peace until you have removed the nails from the hands of God's Son |
| Tx:10.89 | His answer, you too will laugh at your fears and replace them with | peace. For fear lies not in reality, but in the minds of children who |
| Tx:11.18 | for quietness is the end of strife and this is the journey to | peace. Look straight at every image that rises to delay you, for the |
| Tx:11.20 | Father walked with me. Did you not know that I walked with Him in | peace? And does not that mean that peace goes with us on the journey? |
| Tx:11.20 | know that I walked with Him in peace? And does not that mean that | peace goes with us on the journey? |
| Tx:11.22 | you know it not. Yet your Redeemer liveth and abideth in you in the | peace out of which He was created. Would you not exchange this |
| Tx:11.28 | Salvation is for the mind, and it is attained through | peace. This is the only thing that can be saved and the only way to |
| Tx:11.35 | learn to see truly. From this place, where God and His Son dwell in | peace and where you are welcome, you will look out in peace and |
| Tx:11.35 | Son dwell in peace and where you are welcome, you will look out in | peace and behold the world truly. Yet to find the place, you must |
| Tx:11.58 | Him. And knowing this, He would give you what is yours. In perfect | peace He waits for you at His Father's altar, holding out the |
| Tx:11.65 | long will you need correction. For this belief is the destruction of | peace, a goal in direct opposition to the Holy Spirit's purpose. You |
| Tx:11.71 | Coming only from God, its power and grandeur could only bring you | peace if you really looked upon it. If you are afraid, it is because |
| Tx:11.71 | perfect safety of the mind which created us. For we are there in the | peace of the Father, Who wills to project His peace through you. |
| Tx:11.71 | we are there in the peace of the Father, Who wills to project His | peace through you. |
| Tx:11.72 | When you have accepted your mission to project | peace, you will find it, for by making it manifest, you will see it. |
| Tx:11.77 | But offer attack and it will remain hidden, for it can live only in | peace. |
| Tx:11.78 | protection and cannot fear. His Father's love holds him in perfect | peace, and needing nothing, he asks for nothing. Yet he is far from |
| Tx:11.89 | to remove all guilt from his mind that he may remember his Father in | peace. For peace and guilt are antithetical, and the Father can be |
| Tx:11.89 | guilt from his mind that he may remember his Father in peace. For | peace and guilt are antithetical, and the Father can be remembered |
| Tx:11.89 | and guilt are antithetical, and the Father can be remembered only in | peace. Love and guilt cannot coexist, and to accept one is to deny |
| Tx:12.7 | course has explicitly stated that its goal for you is happiness and | peace. Yet you are afraid of it. You have been told again and again |
| Tx:12.19 | his illusions that you may accept the magnitude of your Father in | peace and joy. But exempt no one from your love, or you will be |
| Tx:12.20 | to sanity could not obtain it in your right minds. You were at | peace until you asked for special favor. And God did not give it, for |
| Tx:12.20 | father, demanding of Him what only such a father could give. And the | peace of God's Son was shattered, for he no longer understood his |
| Tx:12.21 | In | peace he needed nothing and asked for nothing. In war he demanded |
| Tx:12.21 | the gentleness of love respond to his demands except by departing in | peace and returning to the Father? If the Son did not wish to remain |
| Tx:12.21 | and returning to the Father? If the Son did not wish to remain in | peace, he could not remain at all. For a darkened mind cannot live in |
| Tx:12.22 | did not do this to you. Could He set you apart, knowing that your | peace lies in His Oneness? He denied you only your request for pain, |
| Tx:12.39 | learn how to deny insanity and come forth from your private world in | peace. |
| Tx:12.53 | to you is but your call to Him. And in Him you are answered by His | peace. |
| Tx:12.54 | of you, they would keep it. You have established them as guides to | peace, for you have made it manifest in them. And seeing it, its |
| Tx:12.64 | To give this sad world over and exchange your errors for the | peace of God is but your will. And Christ will always offer you the |
| Tx:12.65 | not and love surrounds him without end or flaw. Disturbance of his | peace can never be. In perfect sanity he looks on love, for it is all |
| Tx:12.66 | The | peace of God passeth your understanding only in the past. Yet here it |
| Tx:12.67 | You will first dream of | peace and then awaken to it. Your first exchange of what you made for |
| Tx:12.71 | himself he has no needs, for light needs nothing but to shine in | peace and from itself to let the rays extend in quiet to infinity. |
| Tx:12.74 | with faith that He will lead you safely through all dangers to your | peace of mind that this world sets before you. Kneel not before the |
| Tx:12.74 | keep and be not restless, for you undertake a quiet journey to the | peace of God, where He would have you be in quietness. |
| Tx:12.75 | what except your brothers can you need? We will restore to you the | peace of mind that we must find together. The Holy Spirit will teach |
| Tx:12.75 | to be fulfilled in time. Salvation from the world lies only here. My | peace I give you. Take it of me in glad exchange for all the world |
| Tx:13.17 | within, you would see only the Atonement, shining in quiet and in | peace upon the altar to your Father. |
| Tx:13.22 | his own, you will feel guilty. Nor will you find satisfaction and | peace with him, because your union with him is not real. You will see |
| Tx:13.24 | less, will be enough to free you from the past and give your mind in | peace over to the Atonement. When everyone is welcome to you as you |
| Tx:13.28 | remember how much you love Him. Yet it is forever true. In shining | peace within you is the perfect purity in which you were created. |
| Tx:13.30 | No one who condemns a brother can see himself as guiltless in the | peace of God. If he is guiltless and in peace and sees it not, he is |
| Tx:13.30 | himself as guiltless in the peace of God. If he is guiltless and in | peace and sees it not, he is delusional and has not looked upon |
| Tx:13.35 | for how to deal with the perceived and harsh intrusion of guilt on | peace. Yet no one sees himself in conflict and ravaged by a cruel war |
| Tx:13.35 | Believing this, he must escape, for such a war would surely end his | peace of mind and so destroy him. Yet if he could but realize the war |

| Tx:13.38 | Nothing in this world can give this | peace, for nothing in this world is wholly shared. Perfect perception |
| Tx:13.39 | thoughts may occur to you, God's Will is done. You will find the | peace in which He has established you, because He does not change His |
| Tx:13.39 | you, because He does not change His Mind. He is invariable as the | peace in which you dwell and of which the Holy Spirit reminds you. |
| Tx:13.41 | nightmares all mean nothing. They will not prevail against the | peace God wills for you. The Holy Spirit will restore your sanity, |
| Tx:13.42 | you want it broken, and this belief does interfere with the deep | peace in which the sweet and constant communication which God would |
| Tx:13.42 | of reaching out cannot be wholly closed and separated from Him. | Peace will be yours, because His peace still flows to you from Him |

| Tx:15.17 | instant of holiness which will remove all fear. For the instant of | peace is eternal because it is wholly without fear. It will come, |
| Tx:15.22 | for anything in this world with the belief that it will bring you | peace, you are belittling yourself and blinding yourself to glory. |
| Tx:15.23 | your evaluation of yourself. Choose littleness and you will not have | peace, for you will have judged yourself unworthy of it. And whatever |
| Tx:15.30 | less than glory. Learn that you must be worthy of the Prince of | Peace, born in you in honor of Him Whose host you are. You know not |
| Tx:15.30 | when will you learn that only holiness can content you and give you | peace? |
| Tx:15.31 | but into the altar to holiness, where holiness abides in perfect | peace. My Kingdom is not of this world because it is in you. And you |
| Tx:15.32 | you. I will as my Father wills, knowing His Will is constant and at | peace forever with Itself. You will be content with nothing but His |
| Tx:15.33 | salvation to the plan of God and unwilling to attempt to grasp for | peace yourself, salvation will be given you. Yet think not you can |
| Tx:15.34 | power is forever on the side of His host, for it protects only the | peace in which He dwells. Lay not littleness before His holy altar, |

| Tx:15.38 | willingly and gladly give over every plan but His. For there lies | peace, perfectly clear because you have been willing to meet its |
| Tx:15.56 | it is equally impossible to condemn part of a relationship and find | peace within it. Under the Holy Spirit's teaching, all relationships |
| Tx:15.60 | Herein lies | peace, for here there is no conflict. In the world of scarcity, love |
| Tx:15.60 | is no conflict. In the world of scarcity, love has no meaning, and | peace is impossible. For gain and loss are both accepted, and so no |
| Tx:15.63 | It is through us that | peace will come. Join me in the idea of peace, for in ideas minds can |
| Tx:15.63 | It is through us that peace will come. Join me in the idea of | peace, for in ideas minds can communicate. If you would give yourself |
| Tx:15.80 | creations calls to you to share your will with them. Turn, then, in | peace from guilt to God and them. |
| Tx:15.97 | you can give all your guilt away whatever you think and purchase | peace. And the payment does not seem to be yours. While it is obvious |
| Tx:15.100 | both the question and the answer—the demand for sacrifice and the | peace of God. |
| Tx:15.104 | from love. For sacrifice brings guilt as surely as love brings | peace. Guilt is the condition of sacrifice, as peace is the condition |
| Tx:15.104 | surely as love brings peace. Guilt is the condition of sacrifice, as | peace is the condition for the awareness of your relationship with |
| Tx:15.104 | you exclude your Father and your brothers from yourself. Through | peace you invite them back and realize that they are where your |
| Tx:15.104 | can perceive part of himself as loathsome and live within himself in | peace? And who can try to resolve the perceived conflict of Heaven |
| Tx:15.107 | the body's interference, and where there is communication, there is | peace. The Prince of Peace was born to reestablish the condition of |
| Tx:15.107 | and where there is communication, there is peace. The Prince of | Peace was born to reestablish the condition of love by teaching that |
| Tx:15.108 | is everywhere. For communication embraces everything, and in the | peace it re-establishes, love comes of itself. Let no despair darken |
| Tx:15.108 | of Christ is meaningless apart from joy. Let us join in celebrating | peace by demanding no sacrifice of anyone, for so will you offer me |
| Tx:16.6 | Do not confuse your role with His, for this will never bring | peace to anyone. Offer your empathy to Him, for it is His perception |
| Tx:16.17 | This is a year of joy in which your listening will increase, and | peace will grow with its increase. The power of holiness and the |
| Tx:16.20 | not in their denial. This year invest in truth, and let it work in | peace. Have faith in what has faith in you. Think what you have |
| Tx:16.21 | what you taught before He came. And the results have been to bring | peace where there was pain, and suffering has disappeared, to be |
| Tx:16.31 | cross the bridge in perfect safety, translated quietly from war to | peace. For the illusion of love will never satisfy, but its reality, |
| Tx:16.33 | only an escape from death. They seek it desperately but not in the | peace in which it would gladly come quietly to them. And when they |
| Tx:16.35 | be certain that you perceive hatred within and are afraid of it. Yet | peace will never come from the illusion of love, but only from its |
| Tx:16.38 | completing Him by your completion. Fear not to cross to the abode of | peace and perfect holiness. Only there is the completion of God and |
| Tx:16.75 | has been uprooted and has disappeared. The stillness and the | peace of now enfolds you in perfect gentleness. Everything is gone |
| Tx:17.6 | you. But forget not this: When you become disturbed and lose your | peace of mind because another is attempting to solve his problems |
| Tx:17.12 | into his home. And there he knows that he has always rested there in | peace. Even salvation will become a dream and vanish from his mind. |
| Tx:17.26 | have excluded me. Let me enter in the Name of God and bring you | peace that you may offer peace to me. |
| Tx:17.26 | me enter in the Name of God and bring you peace that you may offer | peace to me. |
| Tx:17.42 | the meaning of relationship and know it to be true. Let us ascend in | peace together to the Father by giving Him ascendance in our minds. |
| Tx:17.61 | If the situation is used for truth and sanity, its outcome must be | peace. And this is quite apart from what the outcome is. If peace is |
| Tx:17.61 | must be peace. And this is quite apart from what the outcome is. If | peace is the condition of truth and sanity and cannot be without |
| Tx:17.61 | the condition of truth and sanity and cannot be without them, where | peace is they must be. Truth comes of itself. If you experience |
| Tx:17.61 | peace is they must be. Truth comes of itself. If you experience | peace, it is because the truth has come to you, and you will see the |
| Tx:17.61 | against you. And you will recognize the outcome because you are at | peace. Here again, you see the opposite of the ego's way of looking, |
| Tx:17.63 | attempt conflicts with unity and must obscure the goal of truth. And | peace will not be experienced except in fantasy. Truth has not come |
| Tx:17.63 | solutions bring but the illusion of experience, and the illusion of | peace is not the condition in which the truth can enter. |
| Tx:17.67 | set. The goal's reality will call this forth, for you will see that | peace and faith will not come separately. What situation can you be |
| Tx:17.68 | but with the value of the goal to you. Accept not the illusion of | peace it offers, but look upon its offering and recognize it is |
| Tx:17.73 | your faithlessness against it, for it calls you to salvation and to | peace. |
| Tx:17.74 | has not forced any exclusion on it. It is a situation of perfect | peace simply because you have let it be what it is. |
| Tx:17.75 | interrupt its coming. Let it encompass every situation and bring you | peace. Not even faith is asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it |
| Tx:17.75 | and it will call forth and secure for you the faith you need for | peace. But rise you not against it, for against your opposition it |
| Tx:17.79 | truth as the goal for your relationship, you became givers of | peace as surely as your Father gave peace to you. For the goal of |
| Tx:17.79 | you became givers of peace as surely as your Father gave | peace to you. For the goal of peace cannot be accepted apart from its |
| Tx:17.79 | of peace as surely as your Father gave peace to you. For the goal of | peace cannot be accepted apart from its conditions, and you had faith |
| Tx:18.10 | stand together. God is with you, my brothers. Let us join in Him in | peace and gratitude and accept His gift as our most holy and perfect |
| Tx:18.12 | of the original error which shattered Heaven. And what became of | peace in those who heard? Return with me to Heaven, walking together |
| Tx:18.13 | Accept it here, and you will give as you have accepted. The | peace of God is given you with the glowing purpose in which you join. |
| Tx:18.35 | and not believe that it is up to you to establish the conditions for | peace. God has established them. They do not wait upon your |
| Tx:18.46 | relationship is one, and so it must be that whatever threatens the | peace of one is an equal threat to the other. The power of joining |
| Tx:18.48 | Holy Spirit, that His blessing may descend on us and keep us both in | peace. |
| Tx:18.59 | your Identity and would not limit it. You have escaped from fear to | peace, asking no questions of reality but merely accepting it. You |
| Tx:18.61 | lifting of the barriers of time and space, the sudden experience of | peace and joy, and, above all, the lack of awareness of the body and |
| Tx:18.62 | freedom. Come to this place of refuge, where you can be yourself in | peace. Not through destruction, not through a “breaking out,” but |
| Tx:18.62 | through a “breaking out,” but merely by a quiet “melting in.” For | peace will join you there simply because you have been willing to let |
| Tx:18.62 | it is and where it led you in answer to its gentle call to be at | peace. |
| Tx:18.67 | to concentrate on this than to consider what you should do. When | peace comes at last to those who wrestle with temptation and fight |
| Tx:18.80 | your bleak and joyless kingdom, and to transform it into a garden of | peace and welcome. |
| Tx:18.98 | clean perception. There is your purpose now. And it is there that | peace awaits you. |
| Tx:19.1 | before that when a situation has been dedicated wholly to truth, | peace is inevitable. Its attainment is the criterion by which the |
| Tx:19.1 | of the dedication can be safely assumed. Yet we also said that | peace without faith will never be attained, for what is wholly |
| Tx:19.15 | for the most holy garden which He would make of it. For faith brings | peace, and so it calls on truth to enter and make lovely what has |
| Tx:19.15 | has already been prepared for loveliness. Truth follows faith and | peace, completing the process of making lovely which they begin. For |
| Tx:19.37 | As this | peace extends from deep inside yourselves to embrace all the Sonship |
| Tx:19.37 | your brothers and from various aspects of the world outside. Yet | peace will gently cover them, extending past completely unhindered. |
| Tx:19.37 | This is the way in which He will bring means and goal in line. The | peace He laid deep within both of you] will quietly extend to every |
| Tx:19.38 | give him rest, as it was given you. All this will you do. Yet the | peace which already lies deeply within must first expand and flow |
| Tx:19.39 | the light in them will show you all that you need to see. When the | peace in you has been extended to encompass everyone, the Holy |
| Tx:19.40 | The first obstacle that | peace must flow across is your desire to get rid of it. For it cannot |
| Tx:19.41 | Why would you want | peace homeless? What do you think that it must dispossess to dwell |
| Tx:19.41 | yourselves alone. Christ asks it of you for Himself. He would bring | peace to everyone, and how can He do this except through you? Would |
| Tx:19.41 | you cherish still against each other that is the first obstacle the | peace in you encounters in its going forth. This little wall of |
| Tx:19.42 | The Holy Spirit's purpose rests in | peace within you. Yet you are still unwilling to let it join you |
| Tx:19.43 | away from the giver of salvation? For such have you become. | Peace could no more depart from you than from God. Fear not this |
| Tx:19.43 | Fear not this little obstacle. It cannot contain the Will of God. | Peace will flow across it and join you without hindrance. Salvation |
| Tx:19.43 | you. The little wall will fall away so quietly beneath the wings of | peace! For peace will send its messengers from you to all the world. |
| Tx:19.43 | wall will fall away so quietly beneath the wings of peace! For | peace will send its messengers from you to all the world. And |
| Tx:19.47 | seemed to be the world. It is no longer an unrelenting barrier to | peace. Its pointless wandering makes its results appear to be more |
| Tx:19.59 | We said that | peace must first surmount the obstacle of your desire to get rid of |
| Tx:19.59 | desire to get rid of it. Where the attraction of guilt holds sway, | peace is not wanted. The second obstacle that peace must flow across, |
| Tx:19.59 | of guilt holds sway, peace is not wanted. The second obstacle that | peace must flow across, and closely related to the first, is the |
| Tx:19.60 | This [is] the value that you think | peace would rob you of. This is what you believe that it would |
| Tx:19.60 | you homeless. And it is this for which you would deny a home to | peace. This “sacrifice” you feel to be too great to make, too much to |
| Tx:19.61 | the body, calling the mind to join in holy communion and be at | peace. Such is the message that I gave them for you. |
| Tx:19.63 | Peace is extended from you only to the eternal, and it reaches out | |
| Tx:19.63 | is no more solid than the first. For you will neither to get rid of | peace nor limit it. What are these obstacles which you would |
| Tx:19.63 | limit it. What are these obstacles which you would interpose between | peace and its going forth but barriers you place between your will |
| Tx:19.64 | dearly for your illusions, and nothing you have paid for brought you | peace. Are you not glad that Heaven cannot be sacrificed, and |
| Tx:19.64 | and not outside. How easily the gates are opened from within to let | peace through to bless the tired world! Can it be difficult for us to |
| Tx:19.66 | keep you not apart from what is offered you in gratitude for giving | peace its home in Heaven. Send forth to all the world the joyous |
| Tx:19.68 | give the Holy Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the | peace He gave instead, without the limits which would hold its |
| Tx:19.68 | not this you would be rid of, and having it you cannot limit it. If | peace is homeless, so are you and so am I. And He Who is our home is |
| Tx:19.68 | us. Is this your will? Would you forever be a wanderer in search of | peace? Would you invest your hope of peace and happiness in what must |
| Tx:19.68 | be a wanderer in search of peace? Would you invest your hope of | peace and happiness in what must fail? |
| Tx:19.69 | patience, and wholly loving. It will accept you wholly and give you | peace. Yet it can unite only with what already is at peace in you, |
| Tx:19.69 | and give you peace. Yet it can unite only with what already is at | peace in you, immortal as itself. The body can bring you neither |
| Tx:19.69 | at peace in you, immortal as itself. The body can bring you neither | peace nor turmoil; neither pain nor joy. It is a means and not an |
| Tx:19.69 | mind can see the means for its accomplishment and justify its use.] | Peace and guilt are both conditions of the mind to be attained. And |
| Tx:19.74 | great deceiver recognizes that this is not so, but as the “enemy” of | peace, it urges you to send out all your messages of hate and free |
| Tx:19.77 | strange devotion, for it contains the third of the obstacles which | peace must flow across. No one can die unless he chooses death. What |
| Tx:19.80 | sick minds of the insane, dedicated to madness and set against the | peace of Heaven? One thing is sure—God, Who created neither sin nor |
| Tx:19.84 | Answer is its end. The obstacle of your seeming love for death that | peace must flow across seems to be very great. For in it lies hidden |
| Tx:19.87 | What can attack the guiltless? What fear can enter and disturb the | peace of sinlessness? What has been given you, even in its infancy, |
| Tx:19.89 | it for destruction. Teach me how not to make of it an obstacle to | peace but let You use it for me to facilitate its coming. |
| Tx:19.90 | them would you remember. And as this memory rises in your mind, | peace must still surmount a final obstacle after which is salvation |
| Tx:19.91 | beyond it, shining with joy because He is in His Father's Love, | peace will lightly brush the veil aside and run to meet Him and to |
| Tx:19.94 | Every obstacle that | peace must flow across is surmounted in just the same way; the fear |
| Tx:19.94 | the fear is gone. And so it is with this. The desire to get rid of | peace and drive the Holy Spirit from you fades in the presence of the |
| Tx:19.97 | And it was surely not the ego that led you here. No obstacle to | peace can be surmounted through its help. It does not open up its |
| Tx:19.108 | purpose, without which is the journey meaningless. Here is the | peace of God, given to you eternally by Him. Here is the rest and |
| Tx:20.1 | happily in the celebration of his release. For Easter is the sign of | peace, not pain. A slain Christ has no meaning. But a risen Christ |
| Tx:20.3 | the temptation of crucifixion and delay him there. Help him to go in | peace beyond it, with the light of his own innocence lighting his way |
| Tx:20.9 | He sees no thorns, but only lilies, gleaming in the gentle glow of | peace that shines on everything He looks upon and loves. |
| Tx:20.11 | been given you to see no thorns, no strangers, and no obstacles to | peace. The fear of God is nothing to you now. Who is afraid to look |
| Tx:20.12 | the home we share in quietness, and where we live in gentleness and | peace as one together. |
| Tx:20.14 | This is the way to Heaven and to the | peace of Easter, in which we join in glad awareness that the Son of |
| Tx:20.25 | you, you shall this day enter with him to Paradise and know the | peace of God. |
| Tx:20.33 | complete, nor is the whole completed without your part. The ark of | peace is entered two by two, yet the beginning of another world goes |
| Tx:20.35 | You may wonder how you can be at | peace when, while you are in time, there is so much that must be done |
| Tx:20.35 | are in time, there is so much that must be done before the way to | peace is open. Perhaps this seems impossible to you. But ask yourself |
| Tx:20.38 | single heart beat is the unity of love proclaimed and given welcome. | Peace to your holy relationship, which has the power to hold the |
| Tx:20.39 | given you to see your brother's worth when all you want for him is | peace. And what you want for him, you will receive. |
| Tx:20.40 | How can you estimate the worth of him who offers | peace to you? What would you want except his offering? His worth has |
| Tx:20.44 | certainty the universe rests in his gentle hands in safety and in | peace. Let us consider now what he must learn, to share his Father's |
| Tx:20.53 | attraction, your preference to the holy instant which offers you | peace and understanding? Then lay aside the body and quietly |
| Tx:20.54 | Everlasting Arms. Love's arms are open to receive you and give you | peace forever. |
| Tx:20.69 | with the Holy Spirit's vision and to rejoice in along with Him. For | peace will come to all who ask for it with real desire and sincerity |
| Tx:20.77 | seemed terrifying and seen it change to sights of loveliness and | peace; when you have looked on scenes of violence and death and |
| Tx:21.13 | this little cost seemed in your judgment to be too much to pay for | peace. |
| Tx:21.47 | which sings the praises of another world, brings to it hope of | peace. For it remembers Heaven, and now it sees that Heaven has come |
| Tx:21.87 | unto those who see the final question is necessary to the rest, as | peace must come to those who choose to heal and not to judge. |
| Tx:21.90 | see, the happiness that could be always yours. Here is the constant | peace you could experience forever. Here is what denial has denied |
| Tx:22.13 | a perfect shelter where his Self could be reborn in safety and in | peace. Such did his reason tell him; such he believed because it was |
| Tx:22.31 | Reason is not salvation in itself, but it makes way for | peace and brings you to a state of mind in which salvation can be |
| Tx:22.31 | set like a heavy gate, locked and without a key, across the road to | peace. No one who looks on it without the help of reason would try to |
| Tx:22.40 | that separates you now. Yet it is almost over in your awareness, and | peace has reached you even here before the veil. Think what will |
| Tx:22.46 | against and sacrificed. For sin is carved into a block out of your | peace and laid between you and its return. Yet how can peace be so |
| Tx:22.46 | out of your peace and laid between you and its return. Yet how can | peace be so fragmented? It is still whole, and nothing has been taken |
| Tx:22.56 | Children of | peace, the light has come to you. The light you bring you do not |

| Tx:23.10 | journey's end is at the place of peace. Would you not now accept the | peace offered you here? This “enemy” you fought as an intruder on |
| Tx:23.10 | offered you here? This “enemy” you fought as an intruder on your | peace is here transformed before your sight into the giver of your |
| Tx:23.10 | peace is here transformed before your sight into the giver of your | peace. Your “enemy” was God Himself, to Whom all conflict, triumph, |
| Tx:23.13 | stands radiant, apart from conflict, untouched and quiet in the | peace of God. |
| Tx:23.14 | with yourself? Let all this madness be undone for you and turn in | peace to the remembrance of God, still shining in your quiet mind. |
| Tx:23.15 | He loves forever. And what He loves must be forever quiet and at | peace because it is His home. And you who are beloved of Him are no |
| Tx:23.16 | your brother to the home where God has set him in serenity and | peace and dwells with him. Illusions have no place where love abides, |
| Tx:23.16 | protecting you from everything that is not true. You dwell in | peace as limitless as its Creator, and everything is given those who |
| Tx:23.16 | remember Him. Over His home the Holy Spirit watches, sure that its | peace can never be disturbed. |
| Tx:23.18 | illusion; truth, itself. The meeting of illusions leads to war. | Peace, looking on itself, extends itself. War is the condition in |
| Tx:23.18 | the condition in which fear is born and grows and seeks to dominate. | Peace is the state where love abides and seeks to share itself. |
| Tx:23.18 | the state where love abides and seeks to share itself. Conflict and | peace are opposites. Where one abides the other cannot be; where |
| Tx:23.18 | senseless war it shines, ready to be remembered when you side with | peace. |
| Tx:23.40 | to Heaven or the way to hell? Quite easily. How do you feel? Is | peace in your awareness? Are you certain which way you go? And are |
| Tx:23.44 | forgiveness. Would you not want to recognize assault upon your | peace in any form, if only thus does it become impossible that you |
| Tx:23.45 | Those who believe that | peace can be defended and that attack is justified on its behalf |
| Tx:23.45 | by side with the belief that murder takes some forms by which their | peace is saved? Would they be willing to accept the fact their savage |
| Tx:23.46 | Mistake not truce for | peace, nor compromise for the escape from conflict. To be released |
| Tx:23.52 | There is a stab of pain, a twinge of guilt, and above all, a loss of | peace. This you know well. When it occurs, leave not your place on |
| Tx:23.52 | to remain where He would have you, and no illusion can attack the | peace of God together with His Son. |
| Tx:24.1 | for this course is the attainment and the keeping of the state of | peace. Given this state the mind is quiet, and the condition in which |
| Tx:24.1 | He is already. And can it be He cannot enter where He wills to be? | Peace will be yours because it is His Will. Can you believe a shadow |
| Tx:24.2 | follow guilt and freedom sinlessness. There is no substitute for | peace. What God creates has no alternative. The truth arises from |
| Tx:24.3 | a substitute to take its place. And now must war, the substitute for | peace, come with the one alternative that you can choose for love. |
| Tx:24.4 | Mistake you not the power of these hidden warriors to disrupt your | peace. For it is at their mercy while you decide to leave it there. |
| Tx:24.4 | mercy while you decide to leave it there. The secret enemies of | peace, your least decision to choose attack instead of love, |
| Tx:24.11 | Here must he be your enemy and not your friend. Never can there be | peace among the different. He is your friend because you are the same. |
| Tx:24.13 | Pursuit of specialness is always at the cost of | peace. Who can attack his savior and cut him down yet recognize his |
| Tx:24.14 | Him. They chose their specialness instead of Heaven and instead of | peace and wrapped it carefully in sin to keep it “safe” from truth. |
| Tx:24.20 | truth stand waiting to receive you both in silent blessing and in | peace so real and so encompassing that nothing stands outside. Leave |
| Tx:24.22 | truth of God and you as one seem anything but Heaven and the hope of | peace at last in sight. |
| Tx:24.25 | that your plan has failed and will forever fail to bring you | peace and joy of any kind? Through this despair you travel now, yet |
| Tx:24.31 | have forgiven Him Whose Will it is you rest forever in the arms of | peace in perfect safety and without the heat and malice of one |
| Tx:24.32 | surrounded by a world of loveliness they do not see. Freedom and | peace and joy stand there beside the bier on which they sleep and |
| Tx:24.37 | empty with an open door inviting everything that would disturb your | peace to enter and destroy. |
| Tx:24.39 | certain in this shifting world which has no meaning in reality: when | peace is not with you entirely and when you suffer pain of any kind, |
| Tx:24.41 | it may seem to be; however much it delicately offers the hope of | peace and the escape from pain—in which you suffer not your |
| Tx:24.42 | Where could your | peace arise but from forgiveness? The Christ in you looks only on the |
| Tx:24.42 | truth and sees no condemnation that could need forgiveness. He is at | peace because He sees no sin. Identify with Him, and what has He that |
| Tx:24.49 | Before your brother's holiness the world is still and | peace descends on it in gentleness and blessing so complete that not |
| Tx:24.55 | him. And where is your salvation if he is but a body? Where is your | peace but in his holiness? And where is God Himself but in that part |
| Tx:24.61 | alternative for Him to see. Out of His lack of conflict comes your | peace. And from His purpose comes the means for effortless |
| Tx:25.12 | find a hope of satisfaction there. Perhaps you fancy to attain some | peace and satisfaction in the world as you perceive it. Yet it must |
| Tx:25.28 | plainly that the calls to war he heard before are really calls to | peace. He will perceive that where he gave attack is but another |
| Tx:25.29 | there are two ways to see. This world has much to offer to your | peace and many chances to extend your own forgiveness. Such its |
| Tx:25.29 | your own forgiveness. Such its purpose is to those who want to see | peace and forgiveness descend on them and offer them the light. |
| Tx:25.34 | a world that is not so, take rest and comfort in another world where | peace abides. This world you bring with you to all the weary eyes and |
| Tx:25.35 | unafraid. And from you will the rest you found extend, so that your | peace can never fall away and leave you homeless. Those who offer |
| Tx:25.35 | peace can never fall away and leave you homeless. Those who offer | peace to everyone have found a home in Heaven the world cannot |
| Tx:25.35 | cannot destroy. For it is large enough to hold the world within its | peace. |
| Tx:25.39 | is made, that you unite with him and join with him in innocence and | peace. And yet beneath the ego's senseless shrieks, such is the call |
| Tx:25.58 | no more be left outside without a special function in the hope of | peace than could the Father overlook His Son and pass him by in |
| Tx:25.61 | in God's eternal saneness rest in perfect confidence and perfect | peace. Reason is satisfied, for all insane beliefs can be corrected |
| Tx:25.77 | You have the right to all the universe—to perfect | peace, complete deliverance from all effects of sin, and to the life |
| Tx:25.78 | it means you will forgo all values of this world in favor of the | peace of Heaven. Not one sin would you retain. And not one doubt that |
| Tx:25.83 | unforgivable and warrant vengeance in place of healing and return of | peace? |
| Tx:25.84 | is equally entitled to His gift of healing and deliverance and | peace. To give a problem to the Holy Spirit to solve for you means |
| Tx:25.84 | to be unjust. And then must problems rise to block your way and | peace be scattered by the winds of hate. |
| Tx:26.6 | the world recede and take the rest his witness offers on behalf of | peace. But judge him not, for you will hear no song of liberation for |
| Tx:26.66 | Abide in | peace, where God would have you be, and be the means whereby your |
| Tx:26.66 | would have you be, and be the means whereby your brother finds the | peace in which your wishes are fulfilled. Let us unite in bringing |
| Tx:26.78 | standing there with you, have blessed it with Their innocence and | peace. |
| Tx:27.11 | of sin has been removed, is Heaven free to be remembered. Here its | peace can come and perfect healing take the place of death. The body |
| Tx:27.13 | bodies are accusers. They stand firmly in the way of trust and | peace, proclaiming that the frail can have no trust and that the |
| Tx:27.13 | the frail can have no trust and that the damaged have no grounds for | peace. Who has been injured by his brother and could love and trust |
| Tx:27.35 | thoughts, complete and happy, without opposite. You do not know the | peace of power which opposes nothing. Yet no other kind can be at |
| Tx:27.39 | “Of these illusions, which of them are true? Which ones establish | peace and offer joy? And which can bring escape from all the pain of |
| Tx:27.46 | to a state of mind which has transcended conflict and has reached to | peace. It carries comfort from the place of peace into the |
| Tx:27.46 | and has reached to peace. It carries comfort from the place of | peace into the battleground and demonstrates that war has no effects. |
| Tx:27.47 | will the world indeed seem fearful, for you have withheld its | peace and comfort, leaving it to die. Would not a world so bitterly |
| Tx:27.53 | Peace be to you to whom is healing offered. And you will learn that | |
| Tx:27.53 | Peace be to you to whom is healing offered. And you will learn that | peace is given you when you accept the healing for yourself. Its |
| Tx:27.69 | Careless indeed of him this mind must be, as thoughtless of his | peace and happiness as is the weather or the time of day. It loves |
| Tx:27.70 | What could you choose between but life or death, waking or sleeping, | peace or war, your dreams or your reality? Yet if the choice is |
| Tx:28.13 | to keep its fearful image in the way of glad awakening to present | peace. The trumpets of eternity resound throughout the stillness, yet |
| Tx:29.3 | The fear of God! The greatest obstacle that | peace must flow across has not yet gone. The rest are past, but this |
| Tx:29.9 | Yet all that happens when the gap is gone is | peace eternal. Nothing more than that, and nothing less. Without the |
| Tx:29.11 | for regret but cause indeed for glad rejoicing and for hope of | peace. |
| Tx:29.12 | It has been hopeless to attempt to find the hope of | peace upon a battleground. It has been futile to demand escape from |
| Tx:29.14 | nor where His host can meet with Him. And nowhere else His gifts of | peace and joy and all the happiness His Presence brings can be |
| Tx:29.31 | abide are They remembered both. And where They are is Heaven and is | peace. Think not that you can change Their dwelling place. For your |
| Tx:29.32 | but passes by, unnoticed and unseen. The still infinity of endless | peace surrounds you gently in its soft embrace, so strong and quiet, |
| Tx:29.32 | and eternal that abide in him, for your Identity is there. The | peace in you can but be found in him. And every thought of love you |
| Tx:29.32 | of love you offer him but brings you nearer to your wakening to | peace eternal and to endless joy. |
| Tx:29.34 | he has it is it given you, and where it lies in him, behold your | peace. The quiet that surrounds you dwells in him, and from this |
| Tx:29.35 | Who would lay bloody hands on Heaven itself and hope to find its | peace? Your brother thinks he holds the hand of death. Believe him |
| Tx:29.37 | outside yourself. And leading finally beyond all dreams unto the | peace of everlasting life. |
| Tx:29.38 | How willing are you to forgive your brother? How much do you desire | peace instead of endless strife and misery and pain? These questions |
| Tx:29.38 | These questions are the same in different form. Forgiveness is your | peace, for herein lies the end of separation and the dream of danger |
| Tx:29.38 | and loss. This is the “sacrifice” salvation asks and gladly offers | peace instead of this. |
| Tx:29.43 | falls. Heaven cannot be found where it is not, and there can be no | peace excepting there. Each idol that you worship when God calls will |
| Tx:29.44 | there is something outside of himself that will bring happiness and | peace to him. If everything is in him, this cannot be so. And |
| Tx:29.48 | to be complete and happy. It is vain to worship idols in the hope of | peace. God dwells within, and your completion lies in Him. No idol |
| Tx:29.53 | as dangerous, with forces massed against your confidence and | peace of mind. They have the power to supply your lacks and add the |
| Tx:29.53 | you from the world and lets you stand apart in quiet and in | peace [unlimited]. |
| Tx:29.56 | to what has life and power worthy of the gift of Heaven and eternal | peace. The miracle does not restore the truth, the light the veil |
| Tx:29.57 | to be made the slaves of time. Here does the changeless change, the | peace of God, forever given to all living things, give way to chaos, |
| Tx:29.60 | would the Son of God but laugh if idols could intrude upon his | peace. It is for him the Holy Spirit speaks and tells you idols have |
| Tx:30.43 | exists within God's Mind. It is forever one, eternally united and at | peace. |
| Tx:30.47 | of battle comes remotely near, it rests in certainty and perfect | peace. Here is your one reality kept safe, completely unaware of all |
| Tx:31.11 | But listen, rather, to the deeper call beyond it that appeals for | peace and joy. And all the world will give you joy and peace. For as |
| Tx:31.11 | appeals for peace and joy. And all the world will give you joy and | peace. For as you hear, you answer. And behold! Your answer is the |
| Tx:31.15 | in their fusion there appears to be the hope of satisfaction and of | peace. You see yourself divided into both these roles, forever split |
| Tx:31.50 | a way to help you see this concept of the self must be undone if any | peace of mind is to be given you. Nor can it be unlearned except by |
| Tx:31.58 | in the confidence that it will go at last and leave your mind at | peace. The role of the accuser will appear in many places and in many |
| Tx:31.72 | let the cruel concept of yourself be changed to one which brings the | peace of God. |
| Tx:31.73 | that it needs to let it serve the function given you to bring you | peace that you may offer peace to have it yours. Alternatives are in |

| W1:14.3 | go far beyond it. Our direction is toward perfect safety and perfect | peace. |
| W1:16.3 | that you recognize that every thought you have brings either | peace or war, either love or fear. A neutral result is impossible |
| W1:20.2 | or pressure. You want salvation. You want to be happy. You want | peace. You do not have them now because your mind is totally |
| W1:22.1 | counter-attack will preoccupy him and people his entire world. What | peace of mind is possible to him then? |
| W1:34.1 | to describe the conditions that prevail in the other way of seeing. | Peace of mind is clearly an internal matter. It must begin with your |
| W1:34.1 | with your own thoughts and then extend outward. It is from your | peace of mind that a peaceful perception of the world arises. |
| W1:34.5 | applications are to be frequent and made whenever you feel your | peace of mind is threatened in any way. The purpose is to protect |
| W1:34.6 | I could see | peace in this situation instead of what I now see in it. |
| W1:34.7 | If the inroads on your | peace of mind take the form of more generalized adverse emotions, |
| W1:34.8 | [or my thoughts about this situation, personality, or event] with | peace. |
| W1:41.3 | of all life goes with you wherever you go. Nothing can destroy your | peace of mind because God goes with you wherever you go. |
| W1:47.8 | will recognize that you have reached it if you feel a sense of deep | peace, however briefly. Let go all the trivial things that churn and |
| W1:47.8 | Kingdom of Heaven. There is a place in you where there is perfect | peace. There is a place in you where nothing is impossible. There is |
| W1:47.9 | today often. Use it as your answer to any disturbance. Remember that | peace is your right because you are giving your trust to the strength |
| W1:48.2 | that you use the idea immediately should anything disturb your | peace of mind. |
| W1:49.2 | it. Try to identify with the part of your mind where stillness and | peace reign forever. Try to hear God's Voice call to you lovingly, |
| W1:49.4 | thoughts and obscure your eternal link with God. Sink deep into the | peace that waits for you beyond the frantic, riotous thoughts and |
| W1:50.2 | all the perceived dangers of this world into a climate of perfect | peace and safety. It will transport you into a state of mind which |
| W1:50.4 | let related thoughts come to help you recognize its truth, and allow | peace to flow over you like a blanket of protection and surety. Let |
| W1:R1.5 | seeking a haven of isolation for yourself. You will yet learn that | peace is part of you and requires only that you be there to embrace |
| W1:R1.5 | you will learn that there is no limit to where you are, so that your | peace is everywhere, as you are. |
| W1:52.2 | It is impossible that it could upset me. Reality brings only perfect | peace. When I am upset, it is always because I have replaced reality |
| W1:53.3 | represents chaotic thinking, and chaos has no laws. I cannot live in | peace in such a world. I am grateful that this world is not real and |
| W1:55.3 | will save me from this perception of the world and give me the | peace God intended me to have. |
| W1:55.4 | allows love to return to my awareness, I will see a world of | peace and safety and joy. It is this I choose to see in place of what |
| W1:57.5 | [34] I could see | peace instead of this. When I see the world as a place of freedom, I |
| W1:57.5 | of the rules which I made up for it to obey. I will understand that | peace, not war, abides in it. And I will perceive that peace also |
| W1:57.5 | that peace, not war, abides in it. And I will perceive that | peace also abides in the hearts of all who share this place with me. |
| W1:57.6 | [35] My mind is part of God's. I am very holy. As I share the | peace of the world with my brothers, I begin to understand that this |
| W1:57.6 | peace of the world with my brothers, I begin to understand that this | peace comes from deep within myself. The world I look upon has taken |
| W1:59.2 | How can I be disturbed by anything when He rests in me in absolute | peace? How can I suffer when love and joy surround me through Him? |
| W1:61.4 | you have made about yourself to the truth and helps you depart in | peace, unburdened and certain of your purpose. |
| W1:63.1 | How holy are you who have the power to bring | peace to every mind! How blessed are you who can learn to recognize |
| W1:63.4 | The light of the world brings | peace to every mind through my forgiveness. I am the means God has |

| W1:65.2 | all your perceived difficulties. It places the key to the door of | peace, which you have closed upon yourself, in your own hands. It |
| W1:66.11 | ego's guidance. Did you find it? Were you happy? Did they bring you | peace? |
| W1:68.4 | will suffer guilt as it is certain that those who forgive will find | peace. It is as sure that those who hold grievances will forget who |
| W1:68.9 | of the practice period trying to think of yourself as completely at | peace with everyone and everything, safe in a world which protects |
| W1:70.2 | outside yourself can save you; nothing outside yourself can give you | peace. But it also means that nothing outside yourself can hurt you |
| W1:70.2 | means that nothing outside yourself can hurt you or disturb your | peace or upset you in any way. |
| W1:72.9 | it instead. Your upside-down perception has been ruinous to your | peace of mind. You have seen yourself in a body and the truth outside |
| W1:74.1 | your will is His. The belief that conflict is possible has gone. | Peace has replaced the strange idea that you are torn by conflicting |
| W1:74.2 | There is great | peace in today's idea. And the exercises for today are directed |
| W1:74.2 | is impossible. Let us try to recognize this today and experience the | peace this recognition brings. |
| W1:74.6 | I am at | peace. Nothing can disturb me. My will is God's My will and God's are |
| W1:74.6 | disturb me. My will is God's My will and God's are one. God wills | peace for His Son. |
| W1:74.11 | your mind in this way, close your eyes and try to experience the | peace to which your reality entitles you. Sink into it, and feel it |
| W1:74.11 | than a feeling of drowsiness and enervation. Joy characterizes | peace. By this experience will you recognize that you have reached it. |
| W1:74.12 | to allow retreat into withdrawal, even if you do not experience the | peace you seek. |
| W1:74.14 | There is no will but God's. I seek His | peace today. |
| W1:75.1 | The light has come. You are saved, and you can save. You are at | peace, and you bring peace with you wherever you go. Darkness and |
| W1:75.1 | You are saved, and you can save. You are at peace, and you bring | peace with you wherever you go. Darkness and turmoil and death have |
| W1:79.3 | is no time in which you feel completely free of problems and at | peace. |
| W1:79.8 | the problem and the answer can be brought together and we can be at | peace. |
| W1:79.9 | recognition are all problems resolved. In this recognition there is | peace. |
| W1:80.1 | has been answered, and you have no other. Therefore you must be at | peace. Salvation does depend on recognizing this one problem and |
| W1:80.3 | You are entitled to | peace today. A problem that has been resolved cannot trouble you. |
| W1:80.3 | you while you remember this. One problem—one solution. Accept the | peace this simple statement brings. |
| W1:80.4 | In our longer practice periods today, we will claim the | peace that must be ours when the problem and the answer have been |
| W1:80.5 | Now let the | peace that your acceptance brings be given you. Close your eyes and |
| W1:80.5 | been solved. Recognize that you are out of conflict, free, and at | peace. Above all, remember that you have one problem and that the |
| W1:81.2 | holiness. In its calm light, let all my conflicts disappear. In its | peace, let me remember who I am. |
| W1:82.2 | [63] The light of the world brings | peace to every mind through my forgiveness. My forgiveness is the |
| W1:82.4 | Let | peace extend from my mind to yours, [name]. I share the light of the |
| W1:87.2 | I will look only on what it shows me. This day I will experience the | peace of true perception. |
| W1:92.6 | Truth is a savior and can only will for happiness and | peace for everyone. It gives its strength to everyone who asks, in |
| W1:92.9 | Such is the meeting place we try today to find and rest in, for the | peace of God is where your Self, His Son, is waiting now to meet |
| W1:93.4 | are as pure and holy as you were created, and that light and joy and | peace abide in you? Your image of yourself cannot withstand the Will |
| W1:93.5 | not battle with the Son of God. It does not hurt him nor attack his | peace. It has not changed creation nor reduced eternal sinlessness to |
| W1:93.6 | Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God, and light and joy and | peace abide in you. |
| W1:93.7 | and will forever be exactly as you were created. Light and joy and | peace abide in you because God put them there. |

| W1:96.5 | a body it confuses with itself. Without its function then, it has no | peace, and happiness is alien to its thoughts. |
| W1:96.8 | Holy Spirit holds salvation in your mind and offers it the way to | peace. Salvation is a thought you share with God, because His Voice |
| W1:96.15 | that it sought to lose. Your Self will welcome it and give it | peace. Restored in strength, it will again flow out from Spirit to |
| W1:97.1 | for it will bring your mind from conflict to the quiet fields of | peace. No chill of fear can enter, for your mind has been absolved |
| W1:97.2 | You are the Spirit lovingly endowed with all your Father's love and | peace and joy. You are the Spirit which completes Himself and shares |

| W1:101.10 | to speed you on and hope to go still faster to the waiting goal of | peace. There is no sin. Remember this today, and tell yourself as |
| W1:102.3 | in you. Here is your home, and here your safety is. Here is your | peace, and here there is no fear. Here is salvation. Here is rest at |
| W1:104.1 | Today's idea continues with the thought that joy and | peace are not but idle dreams. They are your right because of what |
| W1:104.5 | I seek but what belongs to me in truth, and joy and | peace are my inheritance. |
| W1:104.7 | a holy place within our minds before His altar, where His gifts of | peace and joy are welcome and to which we come to find what has been |
| W1:104.8 | by simply recognizing that His Will is done already and that joy and | peace belong to us as His eternal gifts. We will not let ourselves |
| W1:104.9 | I seek but what belongs to me in truth. God's gifts of joy and | peace are all I want. |
| W1:105.1 | God's | peace and joy are yours. Today we will accept them, knowing they |
| W1:105.4 | Accept God's | peace and joy, and you will learn a different way of looking at a |
| W1:105.4 | when they are given away. They but increase thereby. As Heaven's | peace and joy intensify when you accept them as God's gift to you, so |
| W1:105.4 | so does the joy of your Creator grow when you accept His joy and | peace as yours. |
| W1:105.6 | Today accept God's | peace and joy as yours. Let Him complete Himself as He defines |
| W1:105.6 | give through loss. No more can you. Receive His gift of joy and | peace today, and He will thank you for your gift to Him. |
| W1:105.7 | today by thinking of those brothers who have been denied by you the | peace and joy that are their right under the equal laws of God. Here |
| W1:105.8 | My brother, | peace and joy I offer you, that I may have God's peace and joy as |
| W1:105.8 | My brother, peace and joy I offer you, that I may have God's | peace and joy as mine. |
| W1:105.9 | would prevent success today. Now are you ready to accept the gift of | peace and joy which God has given you. Now are you ready to |
| W1:105.9 | which God has given you. Now are you ready to experience the joy and | peace you have denied yourself. Now you can say, “God's peace and joy |
| W1:105.9 | the joy and peace you have denied yourself. Now you can say, “God's | peace and joy are mine,” for you have given what you would receive. |
| W1:105.10 | if you prepare your mind as we suggest, for you have let all bars to | peace and joy be lifted up, and what is yours can come to you at |
| W1:105.10 | and what is yours can come to you at last. So tell yourself “God's | peace and joy are mine,” and close your eyes a while, and let His |
| W1:105.13 | My brother, | peace and joy I offer you, that I may have God's peace and joy as |
| W1:105.13 | My brother, peace and joy I offer you, that I may have God's | peace and joy as mine. |
| W1:106.2 | Which silences the thunder of the meaningless and shows the way to | peace to those who cannot see. Be still today and listen to the |
| W1:107.2 | a minute, maybe even less—when nothing came to interrupt your | peace; when you were certain you were loved and safe. Then try to |
| W1:107.13 | Him lead you gently to the truth which will envelop you and give you | peace so deep and tranquil that you will return to the familiar world |
| W1:108.1 | seeming opposites. And what is light except the resolution, born of | peace, of all your conflicts and mistaken thoughts into one concept |
| W1:108.1 | behind it will appear instead, to take its place. And now we are at | peace forever, for the dream is over now. |
| W1:108.3 | being healed, has power to heal. This is the light that brings your | peace of mind to other minds, to share it and be glad that they are |
| W1:108.7 | cannot miss. To give is to receive. Today we will attempt to offer | peace to everyone and see how quickly peace returns to us. Light is |
| W1:108.7 | Today we will attempt to offer peace to everyone and see how quickly | peace returns to us. Light is tranquility, and in that peace is |
| W1:108.7 | how quickly peace returns to us. Light is tranquility, and in that | peace is vision given us and we can see. |
| W1:108.11 | To everyone I offer quietness. To everyone I offer | peace of mind. To everyone I offer gentleness. |
| W1:109.1 | today and quietness unshaken by the world's appearances. We ask for | peace and stillness in the midst of all the turmoil born of clashing |
| W1:109.2 | “I rest in God.” This thought will bring to you the rest and quiet, | peace and stillness, and the safety and the happiness you seek. “I |
| W1:109.4 | This is the day of | peace. You rest in God, and while the world is torn by winds of hate, |
| W1:109.6 | you rest in God. Take time today to slip away from dreams and into | peace. |
| W1:109.7 | each time you rest, and hourly remember that you came to bring the | peace of God into the world that it might take its rest along with |
| W1:109.9 | You rest within the | peace of God today and call upon your brothers from your rest, to |
| W1:109.9 | no one, bringing everyone into the boundless circle of your | peace, the holy sanctuary where you rest. |
| W1:109.10 | —bid them all enter here and rest with you. You rest within the | peace of God today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to take |
| W1:110.13 | that opens up the gate of Heaven, and which lets you enter in the | peace of God and His eternity. |
| W1:R3.4 | can offer everything to you. And so accept its offering and be at | peace. |
| W1:R3.11 | it, and allow your mind to rest a little time in silence and in | peace. Then turn to other things, but try to keep the thought with |
| W1:R3.11 | to keep the thought with you and let it serve to help you keep your | peace throughout the day as well. If you are shaken, think of it |
| W1:112.2 | [93] Light and joy and | peace abide in me. I am the home of light and joy and peace. I |
| W1:112.2 | and joy and peace abide in me. I am the home of light and joy and | peace. I welcome them into the home I share with God, because I am a |
| W1:112.5 | Light and joy and | peace abide in me. |
| W1:113.2 | [95] I am One Self, united with my Creator. Serenity and perfect | peace are mine because I am One Self, completely whole, at one with |
| W1:118.2 | [105] God's | peace and joy are mine. Today I will accept God's peace and joy in |
| W1:118.2 | [105] God's peace and joy are mine. Today I will accept God's | peace and joy in glad exchange for all the substitutes which I have |
| W1:118.2 | exchange for all the substitutes which I have made for happiness and | peace. |
| W1:118.5 | God's | peace and joy are mine. |
| W1:121.1 | Here is the answer to your search for | peace. Here is the key to meaning in a world which seems to make no |
| W1:121.1 | bring uncertainty to all your hopes of ever finding quietness and | peace. Here are all questions answered; here the end of all |
| W1:121.2 | love no room to be itself, no place where it can spread its wings in | peace and soar above the turmoil of the world. The unforgiving mind |
| W1:122.1 | What could you want forgiveness cannot give? Do you want | peace? Forgiveness offers it. Do you want happiness, a quiet mind, a |
| W1:122.2 | And when you wake again, it offers you another day of happiness and | peace. All this forgiveness offers you, and more. |
| W1:122.8 | Open your eyes today, and look upon a happy world of safety and of | peace. Forgiveness is the means by which it comes to take the place |
| W1:122.11 | of the answer brings. Today it will be given you to feel the | peace forgiveness offers and the joy the lifting of the veil holds |
| W1:124.5 | We see it in appearances of pain, and pain gives way to | peace. We see it in the frantic, in the sad and the distressed, the |
| W1:124.5 | the lonely and afraid, who are restored to the tranquility and | peace of mind in which they were created. And we see it in the dying |
| W1:124.8 | Peace be to you today. Secure your peace by practicing awareness you | |
| W1:124.8 | Peace be to you today. Secure your | peace by practicing awareness you are one with your Creator, as He is |
| W1:124.13 | at one with all my brothers and my Self, in everlasting holiness and | peace. |
| W1:125.1 | you from deep within your mind where He abides. Hear Him today. No | peace is possible until His Word is heard around the world; until |
| W1:125.1 | the message which the world must hear to usher in the quiet time of | peace. |
| W1:125.4 | across the world the tidings of salvation and the holy time of | peace. We gather at the throne of God today, the quiet place within |
| W1:125.6 | desires have been stilled. Await His Word in quiet. There is | peace within you to be called upon today to help make ready your most |
| W1:125.8 | to you. It is your Word He speaks. It is the Word of freedom and of | peace, of unity of will and purpose, with no separation nor division |
| W1:126.2 | can judge their sin and yet remain apart from condemnation and at | peace. |
| W1:126.6 | without requiring correction in your mind. It cannot give you | peace as you perceive it. It is not a means for your release from |
| W1:128.6 | Peace and be still a little while, and see how far you rise above the | |
| W1:129.1 | is far more satisfying, filled with joy, and capable of offering you | peace. Think you this world can offer that to you? |
| W1:134.14 | more delayed. For we would meet with our reality in freedom and in | peace. Our practicing becomes the footsteps lightening up the way for |
| W1:135.7 | Is not this picture fearful? Can you be at | peace with such a concept of your home? Yet what endowed the body |
| W1:136.18 | Healing will flash across your open mind as | peace and truth arise to take the place of war and vain imaginings. |
| W1:137.13 | exchanging curse for blessing, pain for joy, and separation for the | peace of God. Is not a minute of the hour worth the giving to receive |
| W1:140.5 | Peace be to you who have been cured in God and not in idle dreams. | |
| W1:140.10 | Voice which speaks to us of truth where all illusions end, and | peace returns to the eternal quiet home of God. |
| W1:140.14 | And we will feel salvation cover us with soft protection and with | peace so deep that no illusion can disturb our minds nor offer proof |
| W1:R4.7 | each idea you will review that day can offer you in freedom and in | peace. Open your mind and clear it of all thoughts that would |
| W1:R4.12 | world from darkness to the light, from grief to joy, from pain to | peace, from sin to holiness. God offers thanks to you who practice |
| W1:R4.12 | the day again before you sleep, His gratitude surrounds you in the | peace wherein He wills you be forever and are learning now to claim |
| W1:151.17 | round the world the joyous news that truth has no illusions and the | peace of God, through us, belongs to everyone. |
| W1:152.2 | have the gift of everything, can loss be real? Can pain be part of | peace, or grief of joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a mind where |
| W1:152.15 | for He speaks for you and for your Father. He will substitute the | peace of God for all your frantic thoughts, the truth of God for |
| W1:153.1 | are illusory deceptions. It attacks and then attacks again. No | peace of mind is possible where danger threatens thus. |
| W1:153.5 | You do not realize what you have done to sabotage the holy | peace of God by your defensiveness. For you behold the Son of God as |
| W1:153.16 | Each hour adds to our increasing | peace, as we remember to be faithful to the will we share with God. |
| W1:153.21 | ministers of God can never fail because the love and strength and | peace that shine from them to all their brothers come from Him. These |
| W1:156.8 | times a day, till certainty has ended doubting and established | peace. Today let doubting cease. God speaks for you in answering your |
| W1:158.10 | another chance to let Christ's vision shine on you and offer you the | peace of God. |
| W1:164.4 | a silence into which the world cannot intrude. There is an ancient | peace you carry in your heart and have not lost. There is a sense of |
| W1:165.3 | Who would deny his safety and his | peace, his joy, his healing and his peace of mind, his quiet rest, |
| W1:165.3 | Who would deny his safety and his peace, his joy, his healing and his | peace of mind, his quiet rest, his calm awakening if he but |
| W1:170.4 | an enemy within—an alien thought at war with you, depriving you of | peace, splitting your mind into two camps which seem wholly |
| W1:170.6 | upon its “enemy.” For fear becomes your safety and protector of your | peace, to which you turn for solace and escape from doubts about your |
| W1:170.10 | Let us remember what the course has stressed about the obstacles to | peace. The final one, the hardest to believe is nothing and a seeming |
| W1:170.13 | voice belongs to God and echoes His. And now your heart remains at | peace forever. You have chosen Him in place of idols, and your |
| W1:170.14 | are like You. No cruelty abides in us for there is none in You. Your | peace is ours. And we bless the world with what we have received from |
| W1:170.14 | us complete. In them we see Your glory, and in them we find our | peace. Holy are we because Your holiness has set us free. And we give |
| W1:I2.1 | But you are asked to practice now in order to attain the sense of | peace such unified commitment will bestow, if only intermittently. It |
| W1:I2.2 | which their lifting brings. But the experience of freedom and of | peace that comes as you give up your tight control of what you see |
| W1:181.2 | Remove your focus on your brother's sins, and you experience the | peace that comes from faith in sinlessness. This faith receives its |
| W1:182.5 | return. But give Him just a little time to be Himself within the | peace that is His home, resting in silence and in peace and love. |
| W1:182.5 | Himself within the peace that is His home, resting in silence and in | peace and love. |
| W1:182.7 | you hear His gentle Voice within you, calling you to let Him go in | peace along with you to where He is at home and you with Him. |
| W1:182.8 | home, and you will stay with Him in perfect stillness, silent and at | peace, beyond all words, untouched by fear and doubt, sublimely |
| W1:182.12 | in sight at last. Be still a moment and go home with Him, and be at | peace a while. |
| W1:183.12 | exceeds in depth and height whatever words could possibly convey, is | peace eternal. In our Father's Name, we would experience this peace |
| W1:183.12 | is peace eternal. In our Father's Name, we would experience this | peace today. And in His Name it shall be given us. |
| W1:184.15 | Your Name unites us in the Oneness which is our inheritance and | peace. Amen. |
| W1:185.2 | a dream. He cannot make a hell and think it real. He wants the | peace of God, and it is given him. For that is all he wants, and that |
| W1:185.4 | in dreams. They merely bargain. And what bargain can give them the | peace of God? Illusions come to take His place. And what He means is |
| W1:185.5 | To mean you want the | peace of God is to renounce all dreams. For no one means these words |
| W1:185.6 | The mind which means that all it wants is | peace must join with other minds, for that is how peace is obtained. |
| W1:185.6 | all it wants is peace must join with other minds, for that is how | peace is obtained. And when the wish for peace is genuine, the means |
| W1:185.6 | minds, for that is how peace is obtained. And when the wish for | peace is genuine, the means for finding it are given in a form each |
| W1:185.7 | to recognizing that we really mean the words we say. We want the | peace of God. This is no idle wish. These words do not request |
| W1:185.9 | all of them: “Is this what I would have, in place of Heaven and the | peace of God?” This is the choice you make. Be not deceived that it |
| W1:185.9 | it is otherwise. No compromise is possible in this. You choose God's | peace, or you have asked for dreams. And dreams will come as you |
| W1:185.9 | dreams. And dreams will come as you requested them. Yet will God's | peace come just as certainly and to remain with you forever. It will |
| W1:185.10 | You want the | peace of God. And so do all who seem to seek for dreams. For them as |
| W1:185.11 | No one who truly seeks the | peace of God can fail to find it. For he merely asks that he deceive |
| W1:185.11 | could be unanswered who requests an answer which is his to give? The | peace of God is yours. |
| W1:185.14 | With help like this beside us, can we fail today as we request the | peace of God be given us? |
| W1:186.1 | earth in Heaven's plan to save the world, restoring it to Heaven's | peace. |
| W1:186.8 | And so we find our | peace. We will accept the function God has given us, for all |
| W1:188.3 | The | peace of God is shining in you now and from your heart extends around |
| W1:188.5 | The | peace of God can never be contained. Who recognizes it within himself |
| W1:188.5 | He forgives because he recognized the truth in him. The | peace of God is shining in you now and in all living things. In |
| W1:188.6 | to you. Exclude the outer world and let your thoughts fly to the | peace within. They know the way. For honest thoughts, untainted by |
| W1:188.7 | God's | peace is shining on them, but they must remain with you as well, for |
| W1:188.7 | within your mind as yours was born in God's. They lead you back to | peace from where they came but to remind you how you must return. |
| W1:188.7 | you that you are the co-creator of all things that live. For as the | peace of God is shining in you, it must shine on them. |
| W1:188.9 | Thus are our minds restored with them, and we acknowledge that the | peace of God still shines in us and from us to all living things that |
| W1:188.10 | The | peace of God is shining in me now. Let all things shine upon me in |
| W1:188.10 | of God is shining in me now. Let all things shine upon me in that | peace, and let me bless them with the light in me. |
| W1:189.3 | meaningless. A world in which forgiveness shines on everything and | peace offers its gentle light to everyone is inconceivable to those |
| W1:189.4 | who feel God's Love in them. Their world reflects the quietness and | peace that shines in them, the gentleness and innocence they see |
| W1:190.4 | Peace to such foolishness! The time has come to laugh at such insane | |
| W1:190.9 | arms and come without defense into the quiet place where Heaven's | peace holds all things still at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger |
| W1:190.11 | to choose our joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of sin, the | peace of God instead of conflict, and the light of Heaven for the |
| W1:192.6 | thinking that the body is its home. Only forgiveness can restore the | peace that God intended for His holy Son. Only forgiveness can |
| W1:193.4 | foolish thoughts which crept into the mind of His most holy Son with | peace and joy fulfills His function now. He redirects each lesson you |
| W1:193.14 | We will attempt today to overcome a thousand seeming obstacles to | peace in just one day. Let mercy come to you more quickly. Do not try |
| W1:193.17 | happens in its course go with it. Thus will you remain unbound, in | peace eternal in the world of time. This is the lesson God would have |
| W1:194.1 | the lawns that welcome you to Heaven's gate, the quiet place of | peace where you await with certainty the final step of God. How far |
| W1:194.7 | who has escaped all fear of future pain has found his way to present | peace and certainty of care the world can never threaten. He is sure |
| W1:194.8 | lays aside the sick illusions of the world along with his and offers | peace to both. |
| W1:195.3 | brother is your “enemy” because you see in him the rival for your | peace, a plunderer who takes his joy from you and leaves you nothing |
| W1:195.7 | a while. We offer thanks for them. For if we can direct them to the | peace that we would find, the way is opening at last to us. An |
| W1:195.8 | when we lay comparisons aside. What more remains as obstacles to | peace? The fear of God is now undone at last, and we forgive without |
| W1:196.12 | there are no obstacles that still remain between you and the holy | peace of God. How kind and merciful is the idea we practice! Give it |
| W1:200.1 | Seek you no further. You will not find | peace except the peace of God. Accept this fact, and save yourself |
| W1:200.1 | Seek you no further. You will not find peace except the | peace of God. Accept this fact, and save yourself the agony of yet |
| W1:200.1 | you no further. There is nothing else for you to find except the | peace of God, unless you seek for misery and pain. |
| W1:200.2 | where there is none, of being saved by what can only hurt, of making | peace of chaos, joy of pain, and Heaven out of hell. Attempt no more |
| W1:200.3 | can ask as easily for love, for happiness, and for eternal life in | peace that has no ending. Ask for this, and you can only win. To ask |
| W1:200.7 | There is no | peace except the peace of God because He has one Son, who cannot make |
| W1:200.7 | There is no peace except the | peace of God because He has one Son, who cannot make a world in |
| W1:200.7 | because it never was created. Is it here that he would seek for | peace? Or must he see that, as he looks on it, the world can but |
| W1:200.7 | but deceive? Yet can he learn to look on it another way and find the | peace of God. |
| W1:200.8 | Peace is the bridge that everyone will cross to leave this world | |
| W1:200.8 | the bridge that everyone will cross to leave this world behind. But | peace begins within the world perceived as different and leading from |
| W1:200.8 | from this fresh perception to the gate of Heaven and the way beyond. | Peace is the answer to conflicting goals, to senseless journeys, |
| W1:200.8 | easy, sloping gently toward the bridge where freedom lies within the | peace of God. |
| W1:200.10 | Heaven, with the body's eyes but serving for an instant longer now. | Peace is already recognized at last, and you can feel its soft |
| W1:200.11 | Today we seek no idols. | Peace cannot be found in them. The peace of God is ours, and only |
| W1:200.11 | Today we seek no idols. Peace cannot be found in them. The | peace of God is ours, and only this will we accept and want. Peace be |
| W1:200.11 | The peace of God is ours, and only this will we accept and want. | Peace be to us today. For we have found a simple, happy way to leave |
| W1:200.11 | goals and solitary dreams with single purpose and companionship. For | peace is union if it be of God. We seek no further. We are close to |
| W1:200.12 | There is no | peace except the peace of God, and I am glad and thankful it is so. |
| W1:200.12 | There is no peace except the | peace of God, and I am glad and thankful it is so. |
| W1:R6.6 | to reach a quickened pace along a shorter path to the serenity and | peace of God. We merely close our eyes and then forget all that we |
| W1:R6.10 | times of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of | peace, and gives our thoughts whatever meaning they may have. |
| W1:205.1 | [185] I want the | peace of God. The peace of God is everything I want. The peace of God |
| W1:205.1 | [185] I want the peace of God. The | peace of God is everything I want. The peace of God is my one goal; |
| W1:205.1 | I want the peace of God. The peace of God is everything I want. The | peace of God is my one goal; the aim of all my living here, the end I |
| W1:208.1 | [188] The | peace of God is shining in me now. I will be still and let the earth |
| W1:208.1 | be still along with me. And in that stillness, we will find the | peace of God. It is within my heart, which witnesses to God Himself. |
| W1:220.1 | [200] There is no | peace except the peace of God. Let me not wander from the way of |
| W1:220.1 | [200] There is no peace except the | peace of God. Let me not wander from the way of peace, for I am lost |
| W1:220.1 | no peace except the peace of God. Let me not wander from the way of | peace, for I am lost on other roads than this. But let me follow Him |
| W1:220.1 | other roads than this. But let me follow Him Who leads me home, and | peace is certain as the Love of God. I am not a body. I am free. For |
| W2:I.1 | to the times in which we leave the world of pain and go to enter | peace. Now we begin to reach the goal this course has set and find |
| W2:221.1 | Father, I come to You today to seek the | peace that You alone can give. I come in silence. In the quiet of my |
| W2:221.2 | answer to our call, to let our thoughts be still and find His | peace, to hear Him speak to us of what we are, and to reveal Himself |
| W2:222.2 | we come quietly into Your Presence now and ask to rest with You in | peace a while. |
| W2:225.1 | its kindly light, inviolate—beloved, with fear behind and only | peace ahead. How still the way Your loving Son is led along to You! |
| W2:225.2 | we find that stillness now. The way is open. Now we follow it in | peace together. You have reached your hand to me, and I will never |
| W2:230.1 | In | peace I was created. And in peace do I remain. It is not given me to |
| W2:230.1 | In peace I was created. And in | peace do I remain. It is not given me to change my Self. How merciful |
| W2:230.1 | How merciful is God my Father, that when He created me He gave me | peace forever. Now I ask but to be what I am. And can this be denied |
| W2:230.2 | Father, I seek the | peace You gave as mine in my creation. What was given then must be |
| W2:230.2 | was apart from time and still remains beyond all change. The | peace in which Your Son was born into Your Mind is shining there |
| W2:230.2 | I am as You created me. I need but call on You to find the | peace You gave. It is Your will that gave it to Your Son. |
| W2:WS.1 | and will replace these thoughts of conflict with the thought of | peace. |
| W2:WS.2 | The thought of | peace was given to God's Son the instant that his mind had thought of |
| W2:WS.2 | had thought of war. There was no need for such a thought before, for | peace was given without opposite and merely was. But when the mind is |
| W2:234.1 | dreams of sin and guilt are gone and we have reached again the holy | peace we never left. Merely a tiny instant has elapsed between |
| W2:234.1 | are forever unified as one. Nothing has ever happened to disturb the | peace of God the Father and the Son. This we accept as wholly true |
| W2:239.2 | it with us. We are one, united in this light, and one with You, at | peace with all creation and ourselves. |
| W2:WIW.4 | Hear His Voice alone in all that speaks to you. And let Him give you | peace and certainty, which you have thrown away but Heaven has |
| W2:243.1 | I cannot make. Thus do I free myself and what I look upon, to be in | peace as God created us. |
| W2:245.1 | Your | peace surrounds me, Father. Where I go, Your peace goes there with |
| W2:245.1 | Your peace surrounds me, Father. Where I go, Your | peace goes there with me. It sheds its light on everyone I meet. I |
| W2:245.1 | meet. I bring it to the desolate and lonely and afraid. I give Your | peace to those who suffer pain or grieve for loss or think they are |
| W2:245.1 | of hope and happiness. Send them to me, my Father. Let me bring Your | peace with me. For I would save Your Son as is Your Will, that I may |
| W2:245.2 | And so we go in | peace. To all the world we give the message that we have received. |
| W2:WIS.3 | Himself, His Will forever overcome by death, love slain by hate, and | peace to be no more. |
| W2:251.1 | I everything that I could want. And now at last I find myself at | peace. |
| W2:251.2 | And for that | peace, our Father, we give thanks. What we denied ourselves You have |
| W2:255.1 | It does not seem to me that I can choose to have but | peace today. And yet my God assures me that His Son is like Himself. |
| W2:255.1 | me this day have faith in Him Who says I am God's Son. And let the | peace I choose be mine today bear witness to the truth of what He |
| W2:255.1 | He says. God's Son can have no cares and must remain forever in the | peace of Heaven. In his name I give today to finding what my Father |
| W2:255.2 | would I pass this day with You. Your Son has not forgotten You. The | peace You gave him still is in his mind, and it is there I choose to |
| W2:257.2 | And thus our purpose must be Yours as well if we would reach the | peace You will for us. |
| W2:261.1 | Let me today seek not security in danger, nor attempt to find my | peace in murderous attack. I live in God. In Him I find my refuge and |
| W2:261.1 | refuge and my strength. In Him is my Identity. In Him is everlasting | peace. And only there will I remember who I really am. |
| W2:262.2 | about ourselves. We would come home and rest in unity. For there is | peace, and nowhere else can peace be sought and found. |
| W2:262.2 | home and rest in unity. For there is peace, and nowhere else can | peace be sought and found. |
| W2:264.1 | is like Yourself. We come to You in Your own Name today, to be at | peace within Your everlasting Love. |
| W2:267.1 | heartbeat and in every breath, in every action and in every thought. | Peace fills my heart and floods my body with the purpose of |
| W2:267.1 | all I need to save the world is given me. Each heartbeat brings me | peace; each breath infuses me with strength. I am a messenger of God, |
| W2:267.1 | His Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held forever quiet and at | peace within His loving arms. Each heartbeat calls His Name, and |
| W2:267.2 | attend Your Answer, not my own. Father, my heart is beating in the | peace the Heart of Love created. It is there and only there that I |
| W2:270.2 | The quiet of today will bless our hearts, and through them | peace will come to everyone. Christ is our eyes today. And through |
| W2:WIC.3 | of the Holy Spirit and at home in God alone, does Christ remain at | peace within the Heaven of your holy mind. This is the only part of |
| W2:WIC.4 | as the end of dreams. For when forgiveness rests upon the world and | peace has come to every Son of God, what could remain to keep things |
| W2:273.1 | way to a disturbance, let us learn how to dismiss it and return to | peace. We need but tell our minds with certainty, “The stillness of |
| W2:273.1 | We need but tell our minds with certainty, “The stillness of the | peace of God is mine,” and nothing can intrude upon the peace that |
| W2:273.1 | of the peace of God is mine,” and nothing can intrude upon the | peace that God Himself has given to His Son. |
| W2:273.2 | Father, Your | peace is mine. What need have I to fear that anything can rob me of |
| W2:273.2 | You would have me keep? I cannot lose Your gifts to me. And so the | peace You gave Your Son is with me still, in quietness and in my own |
| W2:WIHS.4 | let forgiveness rest upon your dreams and be restored to sanity and | peace of mind. Without forgiveness will your dreams remain to terrify |
| W2:286.1 | resolved. In You is everything I hope to find already given me. Your | peace is mine. My heart is quiet and my mind at rest. Your Love is |
| W2:287.1 | be a substitute for happiness? What gift could I prefer before the | peace of God? What treasure would I seek and find and keep that can |
| W2:WIRW.2 | a world seen differently, through quiet eyes and with a mind at | peace. Nothing but rest is there. There are no cries of pain and |
| W2:WIRW.3 | that it would judge against? The world it sees arises from a mind at | peace within itself. No danger lurks in anything it sees, for it is |
| W2:291.1 | through me today. His sight shows me all things forgiven and at | peace and offers this same vision to the world. And I accept this |
| W2:295.1 | today and thus redeem the world. He asks this gift that He may offer | peace of mind to me and take away all terror and all pain. And as |
| W2:305.1 | Who uses but Christ's vision finds a | peace so deep and quiet, undisturbable and wholly changeless that the |
| W2:305.1 | the world contains no counterpart. Comparisons are still before this | peace. And all the world departs in silence as this peace envelops it |
| W2:305.1 | before this peace. And all the world departs in silence as this | peace envelops it and gently carries it to truth, no more to be the |
| W2:305.1 | fear. For Love has come and healed the world by giving it Christ's | peace. |
| W2:305.2 | Father, the | peace of Christ is given us because it is Your will that we be saved. |
| W2:306.1 | I can go past all fear and be restored to love and holiness and | peace. Today I am redeemed and born anew into a world of mercy and of |
| W2:306.1 | anew into a world of mercy and of care; of loving kindness and the | peace of God. |
| W2:307.1 | only You can give, I must accept Your will for me and enter into | peace where conflict is impossible. Your Son is one with You in being |
| W2:310.2 | Who gave salvation to us, and Who set us free. We are restored to | peace and holiness. There is no room in us for fear today, for we |
| W2:WILJ.3 | grace is but to fear complete release from suffering, return to | peace, security and happiness, and union with your own Identity. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | plan to bless His Son and call him to return to the eternal | peace He shares with him. Be not afraid of love. For it alone can |
| W2:311.1 | of all the judgments you have made against yourself and re-establish | peace of mind by giving you God's Judgment of His Son. |
| W2:314.1 | suffer when the present has been freed, extending its security and | peace into a quiet future filled with hope? |
| W2:320.1 | The Son of God is limitless. There are no limits on his strength, his | peace, his joy, or any attributes his Father gave in his creation. |
| W2:323.2 | no longer. Love has now returned to our awareness. And we are at | peace again, for fear has gone and only love remains. |
| W2:328.2 | have me be. It is Your will that I be wholly safe, eternally at | peace. And happily I share that will which You, my Father, gave as |
| W2:WIE.3 | hatred and attack when all there is surrounding him is everlasting | peace, forever conflict-free and undisturbed in deepest silence and |
| W2:WIE.5 | into light, the altar to illusions to the shrine of Life Itself. And | peace will be restored forever to the holy minds which God created as |
| W2:331.1 | and has no will that can conflict with Yours. Conflict is sleep, and | peace awakening. Death is illusion; life, Eternal Truth. There is no |
| W2:331.2 | upon the holy sights forgiveness shows today that we may find the | peace of God. Amen. |
| W2:334.1 | accept such meager gifts again today. God's Voice is offering the | peace of God to all who hear and choose to follow Him. This is my |
| W2:334.2 | mind and frightened heart, to give him certainty and bring him | peace? Today I would behold my brother sinless. This Your Will for |
| W2:336.1 | to find what it has vainly sought without. For here and only here is | peace of mind restored, for this the dwelling-place of God Himself. |
| W2:337.1 | My sinlessness ensures me perfect | peace, eternal safety, everlasting love, freedom forever from all |
| W2:343.2 | The mercy and the | peace of God are free. Salvation has no cost. It is a gift that must |
| W2:345.2 | Peace to all seeking hearts today. The light has come to offer | |
| W2:346.1 | You and know no laws except Your law of Love. And I would find the | peace which You created for Your Son, forgetting all the foolish toys |
| W2:346.2 | And when the evening comes today, we will remember nothing but the | peace of God. For we will learn today what peace is ours when we |
| W2:346.2 | remember nothing but the peace of God. For we will learn today what | peace is ours when we forget all things except God's Love. |
| W2:348.1 | is everlasting Love. I have no cause for anything except the perfect | peace and joy I share with You. What need have I for anger or for |
| W2:WAI.4 | have attained we call to all our brothers, asking them to share our | peace and consummate our joy. |
| W2:352.1 | in forgiveness here, reminds me You have given me a way to find Your | peace again. I am redeemed when I elect to follow in this way. You |
| W2:352.1 | Who leads me to it. Father, I would hear Your Voice and find Your | peace today. For I would love my own Identity and find in Him the |
| W2:355.1 | touch it. It is very close. I need not wait an instant more to be at | peace forever. It is You I choose and my Identity along with You. |
| W2:359.1 | for we would be redeemed. Help us forgive, for we would be at | peace. |
| W2:360.1 | Father, it is Your | peace that I would give, receiving it of You. I am Your Son, forever |

| W2:360.1 | for nowhere else can certainty be found. Peace be to me and | peace to all the world. In holiness were we created, and in holiness |
| W2:FL.2 | His is the only way to find the | peace that God has given us. It is His way that everyone must travel |
| W2:FL.4 | the memory of God and points the way to Him and to the Heaven of His | peace. And shall we not forgive our brother who can offer this to us? |
| W2:E.5 | walk with Him from this time on and turn to Him for guidance and for | peace and right direction. Joy attends our way. For we go homeward to |
| W2:E.6 | We trust our ways to Him and say “Amen.” In | peace we will continue in His way and trust all things to Him. In |
| M:4.8 | a quiet time in which the teacher of God rests a while in reasonable | peace. Now he consolidates his learning. Now he begins to see the |
| M:4.10 | consistency of thought, and full transfer. This is the stage of real | peace, for here is Heaven's state fully reflected. From here the way |
| M:4.10 | is open and easy. In fact, it is here. Who would “go” anywhere if | peace of mind is already complete? And who would seek to change |
| M:4.12 | The | peace of mind which the advanced teachers of God experience is |
| M:4.14 | guilt upon a brother and therefore on one's self. It is the end of | peace and the denial of learning. It demonstrates the absence of |
| M:4.17 | danger that comes when defenses are laid down. It is safety. It is | peace. It is joy. And it is God. |

| M:11.1 | This is a question everyone must ask. Certainly | peace seems to be impossible. Yet the Word of God promises other |
| M:11.1 | things that seem impossible, as well as this. His Word has promised | peace. It has also promised that there is no death, that resurrection |
| M:11.1 | assures us that He loves the world. God's Word has promised us that | peace is possible here, and what He promises can hardly be |
| M:11.3 | substitution is the ununderstandable made understandable. How is | peace possible in this world? In your judgment it is not possible and |
| M:11.3 | possible. But in the Judgment of God, what is reflected here is only | peace. |
| M:11.4 | Peace is impossible to those who look on war. Peace is inevitable to | |
| M:11.4 | Peace is impossible to those who look on war. | Peace is inevitable to those who offer peace. How easily, then, is |

| M:11.4 | it up again. Now is the question different. It is no longer, “Can | peace be possible in this world?” but instead, “Is it not impossible |
| M:11.4 | be possible in this world?” but instead, “Is it not impossible that | peace be absent here?” |

| M:14.5 | gone. The world will end in peace because it is a place of war. When | peace has come, what is the purpose of the world? The world will end |
| M:15.2 | Holy are you, eternal, free, and whole, at | peace forever in the Heart of God. Where is the world and where is |
| M:16.6 | throughout the day. It is a thought of pure joy, a thought of | peace, a thought of limitless release—limitless because all things |
| M:19.5 | Vision is now restored. What had been lost has now been found. The | peace of God descends on all the world and we can see. And we can see! |
| M:20.1 | It has been said that there is a kind of | peace that is not of this world. How is it recognized? How is it |
| M:20.2 | First, how can the | peace of God be recognized? God's peace is recognized at first by |

| M:20.3 | Here the initial contrast stands out clear and apparent. Yet when | peace is found, the war is meaningless. And it is conflict now that |
| M:20.4 | How is the | peace of God retained once it is found? Returning anger, in whatever |
| M:20.4 | form, will drop the heavy curtain once again, and the belief that | peace cannot exist will certainly return. War is again accepted as |
| M:20.4 | moment now and think of this: is conflict what you want, or is God's | peace the better choice? Which gives you more? A tranquil mind is not |
| M:20.6 | What is the | peace of God? No more than this—the simple understanding that His |
| M:20.6 | and all the thoughts of which you can conceive belong to you. God's | peace is the condition for His Will. Attain His peace, and you |
| M:20.6 | belong to you. God's peace is the condition for His Will. Attain His | peace, and you remember Him. |
| M:27.2 | reigns and opposites make endless war. Where there is death is | peace impossible. |

| Tx:3.29 | If you are willing to validate what is true in everything you | perceive, you will make it true for you. Truth overcomes all error. |
| Tx:3.29 | it true for you. Truth overcomes all error. This means that if you | perceive truly, you are canceling out misperceptions in yourself and |
| Tx:3.32 | transitory states, and this necessarily implies variability. How you | perceive at any given time determines what you do, and action must |
| Tx:3.35 | from the altar within and is timeless because it is certain. To | perceive the truth is not the same as knowing it. |
| Tx:3.36 | is because you have made him a stranger that you are afraid of him. | Perceive him correctly so that you can know him. Right perception is |
| Tx:3.38 | being uncertain. He is also incapable of knowledge, because he can | perceive lovelessly. He cannot create surely, because his perception |
| Tx:3.39 | is thus the level of perception but not of knowledge. Again, to | perceive is not to know. |
| Tx:3.40 | as the domain of the ego. The ego is a man-made attempt to | perceive himself as he wished to be rather than as he is. This is an |
| Tx:3.44 | it has will-power. When it willed the separation, it willed to | perceive. Until then, it willed only to know. Afterwards it willed |
| Tx:3.45 | when it willed to create both its own levels and the ability to | perceive, but it could not entirely separate itself from the Soul |
| Tx:3.46 | The ability to | perceive made the body possible because you must perceive something |
| Tx:3.46 | The ability to perceive made the body possible because you must | perceive something and with something. This is why perception |
| Tx:3.51 | of his real strengths and that the intrusion of the ability to | perceive, which is inherently judgmental, was introduced only after |
| Tx:3.54 | Man cannot | perceive himself correctly. He has no image. The word “image” is |
| Tx:3.56 | may be able to recognize something we already have. In electing to | perceive instead of to know, man placed himself in a position where |
| Tx:3.60 | lasts, prayer has a place. Since perception rests on lack, those who | perceive have not totally accepted the Atonement and given themselves |
| Tx:3.60 | Your worth is beyond perception because it is beyond doubt. Do not | perceive yourself in different lights. Know yourself in the One Light |
| Tx:3.77 | not known. Knowledge cannot deceive, but perception can. Man can | perceive himself as self-creating, but he cannot do more than believe |
| Tx:3.77 | it. He cannot make it true. And, as we said before, when you finally | perceive correctly, you can only be glad that you cannot. But until |
| Tx:4.7 | of it as a change towards healing the separation. They always | perceive it as a change towards further separation because the |
| Tx:4.8 | They are fundamentally irreconcilable because the Soul cannot | perceive and the ego cannot know. They are therefore not in |
| Tx:4.12 | can clash in any situation, but Souls cannot clash at all. If you | perceive a teacher as merely a “larger ego,” you will be afraid |
| Tx:4.26 | you never had it. This willfulness is so apparent that one need only | perceive it to see that it does happen. If it can occur that way in |
| Tx:4.31 | principle” of the ego is not real at all. The ego is forced to | perceive the “reality” of other egos because it cannot establish the |
| Tx:4.34 | of it at all. While the ego is equally unaware of the Soul, it does | perceive itself as rejected by “something” which is greater than |
| Tx:4.83 | threat, and if you associate yourself with the ego, you do not | perceive the whole situation as it is. Only your allegiance to it |
| Tx:4.95 | when it experiences threat. While this is always so, individual egos | perceive different kinds of threat which are quite specific in their |
| Tx:4.105 | of the clinicians lie in their attitudes to those whom their egos | perceive as weakened and damaged. By these evaluations, they have |
| Tx:5.5 | Healing is an act of thought by which two minds | perceive their oneness and become glad. This gladness calls to every |
| Tx:5.41 | separation, just as the Holy Spirit is the symbol of peace. What you | perceive in others, you are strengthening in yourself. You let your |
| Tx:5.42 | as a teaching device for bringing you home. The Holy Spirit must | perceive time and reinterpret it into the timeless. The mind must be |
| Tx:5.46 | Spirit will not fail to help you reinterpret everything that you | perceive as fearful and teach you that only what is loving is true. |
| Tx:5.61 | you. It follows, then, that if you identify with the ego, you must | perceive yourself as guilty. Whenever you respond to your ego, you |
| Tx:5.64 | The ego does not | perceive sin as a lack of love. It perceives sin as a positive act of |
| Tx:6.4 | has been misunderstood. This is only because the fearful are apt to | perceive fearfully. |
| Tx:6.7 | crucifixion was intended to teach was that it is not necessary to | perceive any form of assault in persecution, because you cannot be |
| Tx:6.8 | can be demonstrated only through joint decision. You are free to | perceive yourselves as persecuted if you choose. You might remember, |
| Tx:6.14 | constructively, however, you must still follow my example in how to | perceive them. |
| Tx:6.16 | need your blessing to help them hear this for themselves. When you | perceive only this need in them and do not respond to any other, you |
| Tx:6.29 | Atonement is the one need which in this world is universal. To | perceive yourself this way is the only way in which you can find |
| Tx:6.32 | neither partially nor in part. The Holy Spirit enables you to | perceive this wholeness now. You can no more pray for yourselves |
| Tx:6.33 | as it is of yours. Because your minds are split, you can also | perceive as well as think. Yet perception cannot escape from the |
| Tx:6.33 | think. Yet perception cannot escape from the basic laws of mind. You | perceive from your mind and extend your perceptions outward. Although |
| Tx:6.34 | it has never left Him. If it has never left Him, you need only | perceive it as it is to be returned. The full awareness of the |
| Tx:6.36 | This is the way in which you must | perceive God's creations, bringing all of your perceptions into the |
| Tx:6.38 | perfect impartiality, and only by perceiving Him impartially can you | perceive Him at all. The ego is legion, but the Holy Spirit is One. |
| Tx:6.70 | because they believe in attack and rejection, so this is what they | perceive and teach and learn. These insane concepts are clearly the |
| Tx:6.71 | system, you are weakening it. Those who believe in it therefore | perceive this as an attack on them. This is because everyone |
| Tx:6.73 | the mind of the learner projects its own split, and thus does not | perceive consistent minds in others, making him suspicious of their |
| Tx:6.84 | He is judgmental, but only in order to unify the mind so it can | perceive without judgment. This enables the mind to teach without |
| Tx:6.92 | To teach the whole Sonship without exception demonstrates that you | perceive its wholeness and have learned that it is one. Now you must |
| Tx:7.8 | by increase, because it was forever created to increase. If you | perceive it as not increasing, you do not know what it is. You also |
| Tx:7.11 | freedom if man had not chosen to fight for them. That is why they | perceive “the freedoms” as many instead of as one. Yet the argument |
| Tx:7.26 | it belongs there, as you do. How can you, who are God's meaning, | perceive yourselves as absent from it? You can see yourselves as |
| Tx:7.28 | God's equal Sons have everything, they cannot compete. Yet if they | perceive any of their brothers as anything other than their perfect |
| Tx:7.31 | asleep in the minds of the sick, but the part of the mind that can | perceive it and be glad is. |
| Tx:7.45 | is therefore a concept which only a conflicted mind could possibly | perceive as meaningful. Fear does not gladden. Healing does. Fear |
| Tx:7.48 | realizing that he could not have changed his mind. That is how you | perceive the Holy Spirit in him. It is only the Holy Spirit in him |
| Tx:7.48 | changes His Mind. He himself must think he can, or he would not | perceive himself as sick. He therefore does not know what his self is. |
| Tx:7.52 | because it encompasses all things within itself. Blessed are you who | perceive only this, because you perceive only what is true. Come |
| Tx:7.52 | within itself. Blessed are you who perceive only this, because you | perceive only what is true. Come therefore unto me and learn of the |
| Tx:7.54 | Although you can love the Sonship only as one, you can | perceive it as fragmented. It is impossible, however, for you to see |
| Tx:7.55 | what love is. If it does not understand what love is, it cannot | perceive itself as loving. This loses the awareness of being, induces |
| Tx:7.57 | completely insane dilemma in a completely insane way. It does not | perceive its existence as threatened by projecting the threat onto |
| Tx:7.60 | undoes illusions without attacking them merely because He cannot | perceive them at all. They therefore do not exist for Him. He |
| Tx:7.65 | God's Voice in you and will therefore obscure God to you. Unless you | perceive His creation truly, you cannot know the Creator, since God |
| Tx:7.66 | because there is nothing to attack. Therefore, they make up images, | perceive them as unworthy, and attack them for their unworthiness. |
| Tx:7.77 | theirs. Do not share their delusions of scarcity, or you will | perceive yourself as lacking. |
| Tx:7.81 | Perceive any part of the ego's thought system as wholly insane, | |
| Tx:7.81 | have correctly evaluated all of it. This correction enables you to | perceive any part of creation as wholly real, wholly perfect, and |
| Tx:7.89 | The Holy Spirit will teach you to | perceive beyond belief, because truth is beyond belief, and His |
| Tx:7.93 | only function. It therefore blocks your joy, and that is why you | perceive yourselves as unfulfilled. Unless you create, you are |
| Tx:7.94 | Kingdom from yourself, and you are not whole. A split mind cannot | perceive its fullness and needs the miracle of its wholeness to dawn |
| Tx:7.111 | you have acknowledged what He has given you. Nothing is as easy to | perceive as truth. This is the perception which is immediate, clear, |
| Tx:8.4 | Those whom you | perceive as opponents are part of your peace, which you are giving up |
| Tx:8.35 | the delusion. Judging truth as something they do not want, they | perceive deception and block knowledge. |
| Tx:8.54 | the body. The Holy Spirit reaches through it to others. You do not | perceive your brothers as the Holy Spirit does, because you do not |
| Tx:8.73 | It is hard to | perceive sickness as a false witness, because you do not realize that |
| Tx:8.93 | we meant that He has the power to look into what you have hidden and | perceive the Will of God there. His perception of this will can make |
| Tx:9.3 | you must be seeing through yours, because the Holy Spirit does not | perceive his errors. This must be true if there is no communication |
| Tx:9.4 | your ego and making as little sense as the brother whose errors you | perceive. This cannot be correction. Yet it is more than merely lack |
| Tx:9.5 | you can heal him only by perceiving the sanity in him. If you | perceive his errors and accept them, you are accepting yours. If you |
| Tx:9.6 | change this and can have no effect at all on the truth in you. To | perceive errors in anyone and to react to them as if they were real |
| Tx:9.9 | Accept as true only what your brother is if you would know yourself. | Perceive what he is not, and you cannot know what you are, because |
| Tx:9.31 | Him with your eyes nor hear Him with your ears. How, then, can you | perceive Him at all? If you inspire joy, and others react to you with |
| Tx:9.59 | Time and eternity are both in your mind and will conflict until you | perceive time solely as a means to regain eternity. You cannot do |
| Tx:9.60 | that happens to you. Every response you make to everything you | perceive is up to you, because your will determines your perception |
| Tx:9.78 | what its maker thinks he is. And that is exactly what the ego does | perceive in a Son of God; a sick god, self-created, self-sufficient, |
| Tx:9.84 | it is equally clear that it has everything to do with reality as you | perceive it. |
| Tx:9.87 | The Sonship cannot be perceived as partly sick, because to | perceive it that way is not to perceive it at all. If the Sonship is |
| Tx:9.87 | perceived as partly sick, because to perceive it that way is not to | perceive it at all. If the Sonship is one, it is one in all respects. |
| Tx:9.87 | is one, it is one in all respects. Oneness cannot be divided. If you | perceive other gods, your mind is split, and you will not be able to |
| Tx:9.87 | is merely a matter of definition. By defining the mind wrongly, you | perceive it as functioning wrongly. |
| Tx:9.104 | If God knows His Children as wholly sinless, it is blasphemous to | perceive them as guilty. If God knows His Children as wholly without |
| Tx:9.104 | God knows His Children as wholly without pain, it is blasphemous to | perceive suffering anywhere. If God knows His Children to be wholly |
| Tx:9.105 | Do not | perceive anything God did not create, or you are denying Him. His is |
| Tx:9.105 | your real creations, because you believe that the sick images you | perceive are the Sons of God. |
| Tx:10.17 | you are God's Son. In every hurtful thought you hold, wherever you | perceive it, lies the denial of God's Fatherhood and your Sonship. |
| Tx:10.56 | be deluded. Can the ego teach truly when it overlooks truth? Can it | perceive what it has denied? Its witnesses do attest to its denial |
| Tx:10.58 | becomes a witness for Christ or for the ego, depending on what you | perceive in him. Everyone convinces you of what you want to perceive |
| Tx:10.58 | what you perceive in him. Everyone convinces you of what you want to | perceive and of the reality of the kingdom you have chosen for your |
| Tx:10.58 | of the kingdom you have chosen for your vigilance. Everything you | perceive is a witness to the thought system you want to be true. |
| Tx:10.60 | Yet you cannot be aware without interpretation, and what you | perceive is your interpretation. This course is perfectly clear. You |
| Tx:10.60 | do not believe it. And if belief determines perception, you do not | perceive what it means and therefore do not accept it. |
| Tx:10.61 | less and less willing to deny. Learning of Christ is easy, for to | perceive with Him involves no strain at all. His perceptions are your |
| Tx:10.62 | And everyone lives in you, as you live in everyone. Can you, then, | perceive unworthiness in a brother and not perceive it in yourself? |
| Tx:10.62 | everyone. Can you, then, perceive unworthiness in a brother and not | perceive it in yourself? And can you perceive it in yourself and not |
| Tx:10.62 | in a brother and not perceive it in yourself? And can you | perceive it in yourself and not perceive it in God? Believe in the |
| Tx:10.62 | perceive it in yourself? And can you perceive it in yourself and not | perceive it in God? Believe in the resurrection because it has been |
| Tx:10.62 | and no exceptions. But make no exceptions yourself, or you will not | perceive what has been accomplished for you. For we ascend unto the |
| Tx:10.66 | on your eyes, but what you see in dreams is not reality. While you | perceive the Son of God as crucified, you are asleep. And as long as |
| Tx:10.67 | awake. Yet you must see the works I do through you, or you will not | perceive that I have done them unto you. Do not set limits on what |
| Tx:10.69 | The world as you | perceive it cannot have been created by the Father, for the world is |
| Tx:10.69 | cannot be literally true, for the eternal are not re-created. To | perceive anew is merely to perceive again, implying that before, or |
| Tx:10.69 | for the eternal are not re-created. To perceive anew is merely to | perceive again, implying that before, or in the interval, you were |
| Tx:10.70 | can actually be perceived. All that is necessary is a willingness to | perceive nothing else. For if you perceive both good and evil, you |
| Tx:10.70 | is necessary is a willingness to perceive nothing else. For if you | perceive both good and evil, you are accepting both the false and the |
| Tx:10.72 | knowledge, but the denial of the opposite of goodness enables you to | perceive a condition in which opposites do not exist. And this is the |
| Tx:10.72 | yourselves and your Creator, and these beliefs are the world as you | perceive it. Truth is not absent here, but it is obscure. You do not |
| Tx:10.73 | To believe that you can | perceive the real world is to believe that you can know yourself. You |
| Tx:10.73 | the Holy Spirit has saved for you out of what you have made, and to | perceive only this is salvation because it is the recognition that |
| Tx:10.75 | Little children recognize that they do not understand what they | perceive, and so they ask what it means. Do not make the mistake of |
| Tx:10.75 | Do not make the mistake of believing that you understand what you | perceive, for its meaning is lost to you. Yet the Holy Spirit has |
| Tx:10.76 | You do not know the meaning of anything you | perceive. Not one thought you hold is wholly true. The recognition of |
| Tx:10.81 | to ask because you believe that asking is taking, and you do not | perceive it as sharing. The Holy Spirit will give you only what is |
| Tx:10.85 | learn of the reality of your brother because this is what you will | perceive in him, and you will see your beauty reflected in him. |
| Tx:10.86 | is yours. To love yourself is to heal yourself, and you cannot | perceive part of you as sick and achieve your own goal. Brother, we |
| Tx:10.87 | If you | perceive offense in a brother, pluck the offense from your mind, for |
| Tx:10.87 | be not offended by Him, for there is no offense in Him. If what you | perceive offends you, you are offended in yourself and are condemning |
| Tx:10.87 | the Holy Spirit remove all offense of God's Son against himself and | perceive no one but through His guidance, for He would save you from |
| Tx:10.88 | Children | perceive terrifying ghosts and monsters and dragons, and they are |
| Tx:10.88 | Yet if they ask someone they trust for the real meaning of what they | perceive and are willing to let their interpretations go in favor of |
| Tx:10.89 | lack of understanding which frightens them, and when they learn to | perceive truly, they are not afraid. And because of this, they will |
| Tx:10.89 | which frightens you. You do not know what they are, and so you | perceive them as ghosts and monsters and dragons. Ask of their |
| Tx:10.90 | you that, as part of God, deceit in you is impossible. When you | perceive yourself without deceit, you will accept the real world in |
| Tx:11.2 | attempt to demonstrate your own ability to understand what you | perceive. This is shown by the fact that you react to your |
| Tx:11.4 | it unreal. You would not do this except for your unwillingness to | perceive reality, which you withhold from yourself. |
| Tx:11.5 | to him has become what he wants it to be. If you are unwilling to | perceive an appeal for help as what it is, it is because you are |
| Tx:11.6 | his appeal can you be helped. Deny him your help, and you will not | perceive God's answer to you. The Holy Spirit does not need your help |
| Tx:11.6 | for both are capable of bringing love into your awareness if you | perceive them truly. And all your sense of strain comes from your |
| Tx:11.8 | of yours. By giving help you are asking for it, and if you | perceive but one need in yourself, you will be healed. For you will |
| Tx:11.10 | reinterpret it. That is the ultimate value to you in learning to | perceive attack as a call for love. We have learned surely that fear |
| Tx:11.11 | Fear is a symptom of your deep sense of loss. If when you | perceive it in others you learn to supply the loss, the basic cause |
| Tx:11.15 | God cannot be remembered alone. This is what you have forgotten. To | perceive the healing of your brother as the healing of yourself is |
| Tx:11.16 | Perceive in sickness but another call for love and offer your brother | |
| Tx:11.16 | is but one remedy. You will be made whole as you make whole, for to | perceive in sickness the appeal for health is to recognize in hatred |
| Tx:11.23 | purpose. Do you not have greater reason for fearing the world as you | perceive it than for looking at the cause of fear and letting it go |
| Tx:11.29 | not realize this. Even if he is fully aware of anxiety, he does not | perceive its source as his own ego identification, and he always |
| Tx:11.30 | the mind projects the split, not the reality. Everything you | perceive as the outside world is merely your attempt to maintain your |
| Tx:11.31 | You are at odds with the world as you | perceive it because you think it is antagonistic to you. This is a |
| Tx:11.31 | is antagonistic to what is inward, and therefore you would have to | perceive it this way. That is why you must realize that your hatred |
| Tx:11.31 | you can get rid of it and why you must get rid of it before you can | perceive the world as it really is. |
| Tx:11.32 | His only-begotten Son. God does love the real world, and those who | perceive its reality cannot see the world of death. For death is not |
| Tx:11.32 | yourselves from the Mind of God, you would die, and the world you | perceive is a world of separation. |
| Tx:11.34 | of decision. If you will recognize that all attack which you | perceive is in your own mind and nowhere else, you will at last have |
| Tx:11.45 | on yourself had no effects. For others do react to attack if they | perceive it, and if you are trying to attack them, you will be unable |
| Tx:11.53 | sell your Soul, but you can sell your awareness of it. You cannot | perceive your Soul, but you will not know it while you perceive |
| Tx:11.53 | You cannot perceive your Soul, but you will not know it while you | perceive anything else as more valuable. |
| Tx:11.59 | ability to make this transfer is the product of learning.] As you | perceive more and more common elements in all situations, the |
| Tx:11.68 | enables it to believe that it is pursuing one goal. As long as you | perceive the world as split, you are not healed. For to be healed is |
| Tx:11.69 | will see nothing else. The contradictory nature of the witnesses you | perceive is merely the reflection of your conflicting invitations. |
| Tx:11.95 | As you | perceive the holy companions who travel with you, you will realize |
| Tx:12.3 | does not know who the Son of God is because it is blind. Yet let it | perceive guiltlessness anywhere, and it will try to destroy it |
| Tx:12.29 | exact opposite of the ego's. The reason is equally clear, for they | perceive the goal of time as diametrically opposed. |
| Tx:12.45 | To | perceive truly is to be aware of all reality through the awareness of |
| Tx:12.45 | for all reality leaves no room for any error. This means that you | perceive a brother only as you see him now. His past has no reality |
| Tx:12.45 | your questioning of illusions, ask yourself if it is really sane to | perceive what was now. If you remember the past as you look upon your |
| Tx:12.45 | the past as you look upon your brother, you will be unable to | perceive the reality that is now. |
| Tx:12.48 | are not continuous unless you force continuity on them. You can | perceive them as continuous and make them so for you. But do not be |
| Tx:12.49 | The miracle enables you to see your brother without his past and so | perceive him as born again. His errors are all past, and by |
| Tx:13.22 | in which you seek to lay your guilt upon him or share it with him or | perceive his own, you will feel guilty. Nor will you find |
| Tx:13.22 | love and cannot understand what loving is. Their main concern is to | perceive the source of guilt outside themselves, beyond their own |
| Tx:13.49 | is needed in a world made of denial and without direction. You will | perceive the need for this if you will realize that to deny is the |
| Tx:13.85 | Then let Him teach you quietly how to | perceive your guiltlessness, which is already there. |
| Tx:14.14 | is the symbol of the release from guilt by guiltlessness. Whom you | perceive as guilty, you would crucify. Yet you restore guiltlessness |
| Tx:14.16 | is fearful. It is only in darkness and in ignorance that you | perceive the frightening, and you shrink away from it to further |
| Tx:15.18 | egos in an attempt to support it and uphold its weakness, do not | perceive the Source of strength. In the holy instant, you will |
| Tx:15.28 | and the glory that lie in you from God are for all who, like you, | perceive themselves as little and have deceived themselves into |
| Tx:15.52 | holy instant, you see in each relationship what it will be when you | perceive only the present. |
| Tx:15.58 | If you seek for satisfaction in gratifying your needs as you | perceive them, you must believe that strength comes from another, and |
| Tx:15.58 | another, and what you gain he loses. Someone must always lose if you | perceive yourself as weak. Yet there is another interpretation of |
| Tx:15.62 | Spirit gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no need that you | perceive obscure your need of this. For in the holy instant, you will |
| Tx:15.69 | you will become willing to find out if you are willing, first, to | perceive what you have made of them. |
| Tx:15.82 | of God, is far beyond the petty sum of all the separate bodies you | perceive. For all its parts are joined in God through Christ, where |
| Tx:15.97 | to those who think they are its host. The ego will never let you | perceive this, since this recognition would make it homeless. For |
| Tx:15.104 | fear and tried to cast it out though it was part of you. Who can | perceive part of himself as loathsome and live within himself in |
| Tx:15.105 | As long as you | perceive the body as your reality, so long will you perceive yourself |
| Tx:15.105 | As long as you perceive the body as your reality, so long will you | perceive yourself as lonely and deprived. And so long will you also |
| Tx:15.105 | perceive yourself as lonely and deprived. And so long will you also | perceive yourself as a victim of sacrifice, justified in sacrificing |
| Tx:15.108 | you offer me the love I offer you. What can be more joyous than to | perceive we are deprived of nothing? Such is the message of the time |
| Tx:16.10 | Nor do you do them. It is their extension, far beyond the limits you | perceive, that demonstrates you did not do them. Why should you worry |
| Tx:16.21 | from beyond your thought system and so could look upon it fairly and | perceive it was untrue. And He must have done so from the basis of a |
| Tx:16.23 | you have not learned what you have taught show you that you do not | perceive the Sonship as one? And does it not also show you that you |
| Tx:16.35 | fail. If you seek love outside yourself, you can be certain that you | perceive hatred within and are afraid of it. Yet peace will never |
| Tx:16.48 | worlds has merely led to fantasies of both and to the inability to | perceive either one as it is. The special relationship is the triumph |
| Tx:16.78 | of their illusions by forgiving them for the illusions which you | perceive in them. Thus will you learn that you have been forgiven, |
| Tx:17.50 | what you do not understand, and let it be explained to you as you | perceive its purpose work in it to make it holy. You will find many |
| Tx:17.60 | deciding in advance what you want to happen is simply that you will | perceive the situation as a means to make it happen. You will |
| Tx:17.62 | believes in “solving” conflict through fragmentation and does not | perceive the situation as a whole. Therefore, it seeks to split off |
| Tx:18.1 | If you would but consider exactly what this entails, you would | perceive at once how much at variance this is with the goal the Holy |
| Tx:18.4 | divided again, over and over, that it is now almost impossible to | perceive it once was one and still is what it was. That one error, |
| Tx:18.87 | for it is not the body that could speak of this. Its eyes | perceive it not; its senses remain quite unaware of it; its tongue |
| Tx:19.8 | Where there is no overlap, there separation must be complete. And to | perceive this is to recognize where separation is and where it must |
| Tx:20.72 | turned to blessing under His gentle gaze. What can the body's eyes | perceive, with power to correct? Its eyes adjust to sin, unable to |
| Tx:21.1 | picture of an inward condition. As a man thinketh, so does he | perceive. Therefore, seek not to change the world, but will to change |
| Tx:21.18 | You must accept its strength and not its weakness. You must | perceive that what is strong enough to make a world can let it go and |
| Tx:21.51 | but your choice. And if you place your faith in them, you will | perceive another Self in you. This other Self sees miracles as |
| Tx:21.60 | you that you cannot see your brother or yourself as sinful and still | perceive the other innocent. Who looks upon himself as guilty and |
| Tx:21.74 | no longer what is not there to find. Yet first he must be willing to | perceive a world where it is not. It is not necessary that he |
| Tx:22.9 | given you, along with everything that you can understand. You will | perceive no difficulty in understanding what this vision tells you, |
| Tx:22.17 | it, see them as different, and define the difference as joy. Yet to | perceive a difference where none exists will surely fail to make a |
| Tx:22.35 | see beyond what is not there must be distorted perception and must | perceive illusions as the truth. Could it then recognize the truth? |
| Tx:22.61 | is? You do not see that every sin and every condemnation which you | perceive and justify is an attack upon your Father. And that is why |
| Tx:23.2 | will fear what you attack as it is sure that you will love what you | perceive as sinless. He walks in peace who travels sinlessly along |
| Tx:23.5 | and alone in his temptation but help him rise above it and | perceive the light of which he is a part. Your innocence will light |
| Tx:23.5 | protected and kept in your awareness. For who can know his glory and | perceive the little and the weak about him? Who can walk trembling in |
| Tx:23.36 | be believed. Brothers, you do believe them. For how else could you | perceive the form they take with content such as this? Can any form |
| Tx:23.45 | can be defended and that attack is justified on its behalf cannot | perceive it lies within them. How could they know? Could they accept |
| Tx:24.12 | by searching for and keeping clear in sight all lacks it can | perceive. This does it seek, and this it looks upon. And always whom |
| Tx:24.52 | respects, in every way, and every circumstance, in all temptation to | perceive what is not there and all belief God's Son can suffer pain |
| Tx:25.12 | Is it not evident that what the body's eyes | perceive fills you with fear? Perhaps you think you find a hope of |
| Tx:25.12 | you fancy to attain some peace and satisfaction in the world as you | perceive it. Yet it must be evident the outcome does not change. |
| Tx:25.23 | To the extent to which you value guilt, to that extent will you | perceive a world in which attack is justified. To the extent to which |
| Tx:25.23 | you recognize that guilt is meaningless, to that extent will you | perceive attack cannot be justified. This is in strict accord with |
| Tx:25.28 | the calls to war he heard before are really calls to peace. He will | perceive that where he gave attack is but another altar where he can |
| Tx:25.37 | the whole desire to attack is gone, and so there is no reason to | perceive the Son of God as other than he is. The need for guilt is |
| Tx:25.41 | hell, but not alone. How beautiful his sinlessness will be when you | perceive it! And how great will be your joy, when he is free to offer |
| Tx:25.42 | the understanding that he is the way to Heaven or to hell as you | perceive him. But forget not this—the role you give to him is given |
| Tx:25.58 | is one which he cannot deny nor overlook nor fail completely to | perceive at all. To each his special function is designed to be |
| Tx:25.67 | with the idea of punishment that they lay it aside unaided and | perceive it is not true? It is extremely hard for those who still |
| Tx:25.68 | belief in justice must entail. And so they fear the Holy Spirit and | perceive the “wrath” of God in Him. [They are unjust indeed to Him.] |
| Tx:25.68 | have never sinned. Their world depends on sin's stability. And they | perceive the “threat” of what God knows as justice to be more |
| Tx:25.75 | it is impossible the Son of God could merit vengeance. You need not | perceive in every circumstance that this is true. Nor need you look |
| Tx:25.77 | justice with a version of its own. For only love is just and can | perceive what justice must accord the Son of God. Let love decide and |
| Tx:25.79 | For God is fair. He does not fight against His Son's reluctance to | perceive salvation as a gift from Him. Yet would His justice not be |
| Tx:25.84 | as less deserving, then is He ally to specialness. What He cannot | perceive He bears no witness to. And everyone is equally entitled to |
| Tx:25.86 | so they gather dust and grow until they cover everything that you | perceive and leave you fair to no one. Not one right do you believe |
| Tx:26.4 | you. What greater sacrifice could be demanded than that God's Son | perceive himself without his Father? And his Father be without His |
| Tx:26.12 | to size, complexity, or place and time, or any attribute which you | perceive that makes each one seem different from the rest. Think not |
| Tx:26.26 | stands between to keep them separate and apart. The sinless must | perceive that they are one, for nothing stands between to push the |
| Tx:26.33 | guides you through the infinitely small and senseless maze you still | perceive in time, though it has long since gone. You think you live |
| Tx:26.70 | Salvation is immediate. Unless you so | perceive it, you will be afraid of it, believing that the risk of |
| Tx:26.70 | Do not project this fear to time, for time is not the enemy that you | perceive. Time is as neutral as the body is except in terms of what |
| Tx:26.85 | and when you think it is unfair and not to be allowed. When you | perceive it as unfair, you think that a response of anger now is |
| Tx:26.86 | What does it mean if you | perceive attack in certain forms to be unfair to you? It means that |
| Tx:26.88 | Beware of the temptation to | perceive yourself unfairly treated. In this view, you seek to find an |
| Tx:26.89 | must be unfair to make the other innocent. And in this game do you | perceive one purpose for your whole relationship. And this you seek |
| Tx:26.90 | not a trace of all the happy sparkle that salvation brought can you | perceive to lighten up your way. And so you see yourself deprived of |
| Tx:26.90 | been resolved and been replaced with justice and with love. If you | perceive injustice anywhere, you need but say: |
| Tx:27.23 | [In a split mind, identity must seem to be divided. Nor can anyone | perceive a function unified which has conflicting purposes and |
| Tx:27.24 | separate, because that is the function given it by you. When you | perceive correction is the same as pardon, then you also know the |
| Tx:27.28 | is unified. His single purpose unifies the halves of you which you | perceive as separate. And each forgives the other, that he may accept |
| Tx:27.31 | it represents. And thus the picture has no cause at all. Who can | perceive effect without a cause? What can the causeless be but |
| Tx:27.48 | face instead. Healing replaces suffering. Who looks on one cannot | perceive the other, for they cannot both be there. And what you see |
| Tx:27.49 | Friend who brought them their release. And happily your brother will | perceive the many friends he thought were enemies. |
| Tx:27.50 | nature is that it is not. And thus while he perceives it, he can not | perceive it as it is. But healing is apparent in specific instances |
| Tx:27.51 | properly perceived but never violated. Fear you not the way that you | perceive them. You are wrong, but there is One within you Who is |
| Tx:27.71 | both. Yet was it started by your secret dream, which you do not | perceive, although it caused the part you see and do not doubt is |
| Tx:27.84 | guilt outside yourself but never letting go! It is not easy to | perceive the jest when all around you do your eyes behold its heavy |
| Tx:27.85 | In gentle laughter does the Holy Spirit | perceive the cause and looks not to effects. How else could He |
| Tx:27.89 | you choose but not to listen, not to see. How differently will you | perceive the world when this is recognized! When you forgive the |
| Tx:28.19 | your shreds of memories and dreams. Yet if you are the dreamer, you | perceive this much at least—that you have caused the dream and can |
| Tx:28.29 | other mind cannot project its guilt without your aid in letting it | perceive itself as separate and apart from you. Thus is the body not |
| Tx:28.46 | a loss, and what is not of Him has no effects. What then would you | perceive within the gap? The seeds of sickness come from the belief |
| Tx:28.48 | to have. You share no evil dreams if you forgive the dreamer and | perceive that he is not the dream he made. And so he cannot be a part |
| Tx:28.50 | a world established that is sick, and this the world the body's eyes | perceive. Here are the sounds it hears—the voices which its ears |
| Tx:28.50 | which its ears were made to hear. Yet sights and sounds the body can | perceive are meaningless. It cannot see nor hear. It does not know |
| Tx:28.50 | know what seeing is, what listening is for. It is as little able to | perceive as it can judge or understand or know. Its eyes are blind; |
| Tx:28.51 | a witness to the world you want. Let not the body's ears and eyes | perceive these countless fragments seen within the gap which you |
| Tx:28.53 | here. The world you see does not exist because the place where you | perceive it is not real. The gap is carefully concealed in fog, and |
| Tx:28.57 | walk apart. This is the secret oath you take again, whenever you | perceive yourself attacked. No one can suffer if he does not see |
| Tx:29.1 | eternal patience sometimes fail. All this do you believe, when you | perceive a gap between your brother and yourself. How could you trust |
| Tx:29.10 | Why would you not | perceive it as release from suffering to learn that you are free? Why |
| Tx:29.18 | in that it is not more than it should be but only in your failure to | perceive that it is nothing. Yet its nothingness is your salvation, |
| Tx:29.27 | it can be said attack is a response to function unfulfilled as you | perceive the function. It can be in you or someone else, but where it |
| Tx:29.47 | a sign of death. You came to die, and what would you expect but to | perceive the signs of death you seek? No sadness and no suffering |
| Tx:30.6 | you saw it first. This leads to fear because it contradicts what you | perceive, and so you feel attacked. And therefore angry. There are |
| Tx:30.68 | as you. For he will be delayed when you look back, and you will not | perceive Whose loving hand you hold. Look forward, then, and walk in |
| Tx:30.72 | pardon would have none. The real world is achieved when you | perceive the basis of forgiveness is quite real and fully justified. |
| Tx:30.85 | are glad to see it everywhere. It cannot change because you would | perceive it everywhere, unchanged by circumstance. And so you offer |
| Tx:30.90 | deception both. It is obscured by changing views of him which you | perceive as his reality. The happy dream about him takes the form of |
| Tx:31.1 | and what is true cannot be false? You can no longer say that you | perceive no differences in false and true. You have been told exactly |
| Tx:31.24 | should be asking for will be enough to let this happen. And you will | perceive his purpose is the same as yours. He asks for what you want |
| Tx:31.36 | place when you have learned the way the lesson starts but do not yet | perceive what it is for? Its purpose is the answer to the search that |
| Tx:31.47 | that the face which smiles above it must forever look away, lest it | perceive the treachery it hides. The lesson teaches this: “I am the |
| Tx:31.51 | are what your brother made of you. For even though you do not yet | perceive that this is what you think, you surely learned by now that |
| Tx:31.57 | for what you are. What matters it which concept you accept while you | perceive a self which interacts with evil and reacts to wicked |
| Tx:31.57 | of yourself will still remain quite meaningless. And you will not | perceive that you can interact but with yourself. To see a guilty |
| Tx:31.64 | Salvation does not ask that you behold the Spirit and | perceive the body not. It merely asks that this should be your |
| Tx:31.68 | and trust becomes impossible. Nor could it change while you | perceive the “bad” in you. |
| Tx:31.69 | your “evil” thoughts as long as you see value in attack. You will | perceive them sometimes, but will not see them as meaningless. And so |
| Tx:31.74 | of what lies beyond. At least, you merely look on darkness and | perceive the terrified imaginings that come from guilty thoughts and |
| Tx:31.76 | off unoccupied by love. Yet while you hold this sword, you must | perceive the body as yourself, for you are bound to separation from |
| Tx:31.89 | Learn then the happy habit of response to all temptation to | perceive yourself as weak and miserable with these words: |
| Tx:31.92 | as pain, as weakness and as suffering and loss is but temptation to | perceive yourself defenseless and in hell. Yield not to this, and you |
| Tx:31.94 | Let us be glad that we can walk the world and find so many chances to | perceive another situation where God's gift can once again be |
| W1:5.10 | each of them, using the name of both the source of the upset as you | perceive it and of the feelings as you experience it. Further |
| W1:11.1 | thinking of the world. It seems as if the world determines what you | perceive. Today's idea introduces the concept that your thoughts |
| W1:13.1 | exists. However, it does not follow that you will not think you | perceive something that has no meaning. On the contrary, you will be |
| W1:13.1 | On the contrary, you will be particularly likely to think you do | perceive it. |
| W1:24.2 | If you realized that you do not | perceive your own best interests, you could be taught what they are. |
| W1:24.10 | I do not | perceive my own best interests in this situation, |
| W1:25.2 | You | perceive the world and everything in it as meaningful in terms of ego |
| W1:25.3 | Another way of describing the goals you now | perceive as valuable is to say that they are all concerned with |
| W1:33.2 | sense of shifting. Merely glance casually around the world you | perceive as outside yourself, then close your eyes and survey your |
| W1:55.5 | [24] I do not | perceive my own best interests. How could I recognize my own best |
| W1:55.5 | find out what my own best interests are, recognizing that I cannot | perceive them by myself. |
| W1:57.5 | I will understand that peace, not war, abides in it. And I will | perceive that peace also abides in the hearts of all who share this |
| W1:86.4 | of this. This is no exception in God's plan for my salvation. Let me | perceive this only in the light of God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:87.7 | Let me | perceive this in accordance with the Will of God. It is God's Will |
| W1:89.5 | By this idea do I unite my will with the Holy Spirit's and | perceive them as one. By this idea do I accept my release from hell. |
| W1:91.2 | from which the darkness comes. Denial of light leads to failure to | perceive it. Failure to perceive light is to perceive darkness. The |
| W1:91.2 | comes. Denial of light leads to failure to perceive it. Failure to | perceive light is to perceive darkness. The light is useless to you |

| W1:91.7 | Miracles are seen in light. The body's eyes do not | perceive the light. But I am not a body. What am I? |
| W1:92.4 | It brings the light in which your Self appears. In darkness you | perceive a self that is not there. |
| W1:92.7 | It separates itself from what it sees, while light and strength | perceive themselves as one. |
| W1:93.3 | you. This is enough to prove that they are wrong, but you do not | perceive that this is so. |
| W1:96.5 | function here. Yet mind can also see itself divorced from Spirit and | perceive itself within a body it confuses with itself. Without its |
| W1:99.9 | work miracles, be sure you practice well the idea for today. Try to | perceive the strength in what you say, for these are words in which |
| W1:121.4 | What can the unforgiving mind | perceive but its damnation? What can it behold except the proof that |
| W1:121.11 | your eyes and see him in your mind and look at him a while. Try to | perceive some light in him somewhere—a little gleam which you had |
| W1:121.12 | the light you learned to see around your former “enemy” to him. | Perceive him now as more than friend to you, for in that light his |
| W1:126.6 | requiring correction in your mind. It cannot give you peace as you | perceive it. It is not a means for your release from what you see in |
| W1:127.2 | it would have to judge between the righteous and the sinner and | perceive the Son of God in separate parts. |
| W1:128.2 | mind this world contains is that you pass it by, without delaying to | perceive some hope where there is none. Be you deceived no more. The |
| W1:128.3 | Escape today the chains you place upon your mind when you | perceive salvation here. For what you value you make part of you as |
| W1:128.3 | salvation here. For what you value you make part of you as you | perceive yourself. All things you seek to make your value greater in |
| W1:133.10 | Here is deception doubled, for the one who is deceived will not | perceive that he has merely failed to gain. He will believe that he |
| W1:133.10 | he tries to keep its halo clear within his vision, yet must he | perceive its tarnished edges and its rusted core. |
| W1:134.9 | There is a very simple way to find the door to true forgiveness and | perceive it open wide in welcome. When you feel that you are tempted |
| W1:134.13 | Forgiveness must be practiced, for the world cannot | perceive its meaning nor provide a guide to teach you its |
| W1:134.16 | Let me | perceive forgiveness as it is. |
| W1:134.20 | Let me | perceive forgiveness as it is. Should I accuse myself of doing this? |
| W1:135.15 | It is, perhaps, not easy to | perceive that self-initiated plans are but defenses with the purpose |
| W1:138.1 | must be hell as well, for contradiction is the way we make what we | perceive and what we think is real. Creation knows no opposite. But |
| W1:138.4 | would induce. You make but one. And when that one is made, you will | perceive it was no choice at all, for truth is true and nothing else |
| W1:140.3 | can merely dream he is awake. The dreams forgiveness lets the mind | perceive do not induce another form of sleep, so that the dreamer |
| W1:147.2 | [134] Let me | perceive forgiveness as it is. |
| W1:152.4 | the most obscure. But not because it is a difficult distinction to | perceive. It is concealed behind a vast array of choices which do not |
| W1:152.7 | what God created not? To think you can is merely to believe you can | perceive what God willed not to be. And what could be more arrogant |
| W1:159.2 | you forgive. You recognize your brother as yourself and thus do you | perceive that you are whole. There is no miracle you cannot give, for |
| W1:161.10 | Attack on him is enemy to you, for you will not | perceive that in his hands is your salvation. Ask him but for this, |
| W1:161.16 | you use it instantly, should you be tempted to attack a brother and | perceive in him the symbol of your fear. And you will see him |
| W1:165.4 | Deny not Heaven. It is yours today but for the asking. Nor need you | perceive how great the gift, how changed your mind will be before it |
| W1:166.8 | fearfully lest you should feel Christ's touch upon your shoulder and | perceive His gentle hand directing you to look upon your gifts. How |
| W1:166.11 | of poverty oppresses you and speaks of His companionship when you | perceive yourself as lonely and afraid. |
| W1:170.3 | is it real and inescapable. Lay down your arms, and only then do you | perceive it false. |
| W1:170.5 | your fancied self-defense proceeds on its imagined way, you will | perceive the premises on which the idea stands. First, it is obvious |
| W1:170.11 | its attributes with those of fear. Yet must the worshipers of fear | perceive their own confusion in fear's “enemy,” its cruelty as now a |
| W1:184.8 | you give him as his own. And thus his unity is twice denied, for you | perceive him separate from you, and he accepts this separate name as |
| W1:187.2 | sure that if you give a finite thing away, your body's eyes will not | perceive it yours. Yet we have learned that things but represent the |
| W1:187.3 | is the idea of giving clarified and given meaning. Now you can | perceive that by your giving is your store increased. |
| W1:189.1 | There is a light in you the world cannot | perceive. And with its eyes you will not see this light, for you are |
| W1:189.5 | you feel within. If hatred finds a place within your heart, you will | perceive a fearful world, held cruelly in death's sharp-pointed, bony |
| W1:190.5 | all things you see by merely recognizing what you are. As you | perceive the harmlessness in them, they will accept your holy will as |
| W1:191.6 | have freed the world. You have no need to use it cruelly and then | perceive this savage need in it. You set it free of your |
| W1:191.11 | You who | perceive yourself as weak and frail, with futile hopes and devastated |
| W1:192.6 | to look again upon his holiness. With anger gone, you will indeed | perceive that for Christ's vision and the gift of sight no sacrifice |
| W1:192.7 | indeed been given everything by God. Yet do we need forgiveness to | perceive that this is so. Without its kindly light we grope in |
| W1:193.2 | that will lead him back to where perception ceases. God does not | perceive at all. Yet it is He Who gives the means by which perception |
| W1:193.3 | which it could be offered to the world. And He created One Who could | perceive what form this law should take, to be received by every mind |
| W1:193.11 | can you tell when you are seeing wrong or someone else is failing to | perceive the lesson he should learn? Does pain seem real in the |
| W1:194.6 | And as you learn to see salvation in all things, so will the world | perceive that it is saved. |
| W1:195.2 | that they thought contained no door to the deliverance they now | perceive. |
| W1:196.6 | is real to anyone who thinks this thought is true. And he will not | perceive its foolishness nor even see that it is there so that it |
| W1:196.7 | painful path. Until this shift has been accomplished, you cannot | perceive that it is but your thoughts that bring you fear and your |
| W1:198.7 | look again upon the place where you beheld Their blood, you will | perceive a miracle instead. |
| W1:198.14 | Itself, so like to Him Whose Son he is, that to behold the Son is to | perceive no more and only know the Father? In this vision of the Son, |
| W1:199.1 | Freedom must be impossible as long as you | perceive a body as yourself. The body is a limit. Who would seek for |
| W1:199.7 | can make use of your escape from bondage to set free the many who | perceive themselves as bound and helpless and afraid. Let love |
| W2:236.1 | and feel. And yet it has been given me to serve whatever purpose I | perceive in it. My mind can only serve. Today I give its service to |
| W2:250.1 | in him and see his strength diminished and reduced to frailty nor | perceive the lacks in him with which I would attack his sovereignty. |
| W2:261.1 | what I think is refuge and security. I will behold myself where I | perceive my strength and think I live within the citadel where I am |
| W2:262.1 | that I would look upon today. He is Your one creation. Why should I | perceive a thousand forms in what remains as one? Why should I give |
| W2:263.1 | upon what You created as if it could be made sinful? I would not | perceive such dark and fearful images. A madman's dream is hardly fit |
| W2:265.1 | reflect my thoughts. Yet is my mind at one with God's. And so I can | perceive creation's gentleness. |
| W2:270.1 | How glorious and gracious is this world! Yet how much more will I | perceive in it than sight can give. The world forgiven signifies Your |
| W2:WIC.2 | dreams are over. He remains untouched by anything the body's eyes | perceive. For though in Him His Father placed the means for your |
| W2:278.1 | the world obeys must I obey—the frailties and the sins which I | perceive are real and cannot be escaped. If I am bound in any way, I |
| W2:289.1 | really looking nowhere, seeing but what is not there. How can I then | perceive the world forgiveness offers? This the past was made to |
| W2:290.1 | And I would have Christ's vision come to me this very day. What I | perceive without God's own correction for the sight I made is |
| W2:WIRW.3 | such a mind for thoughts of death, attack, and murder? What can it | perceive surrounding it but safety, love, and joy? What is there it |
| W2:WIRW.4 | and guilt is over and God's Son no longer sleeps. His waking eyes | perceive the sure reflection of his Father's Love, the certain |
| W2:292.1 | not find the end He has appointed as the outcome of all problems we | perceive, all trials we see, and every situation that we meet. Yet is |
| W2:292.2 | the happy endings You have promised us for every problem that we can | perceive, for every trial we think we still must meet. |
| W2:293.1 | All the world shines in reflection of its holy light, and I | perceive a world forgiven at last. |
| W2:328.1 | What seems to be the second place is first, for all things we | perceive are upside-down until we listen to the Voice of God. It |
| W2:345.1 | given back in just the form I need to help me with the problems I | perceive. Father, in Heaven it is different, for there, there are no |
| W2:350.1 | What we forgive becomes a part of us as we | perceive ourselves. The Son of God incorporates all things within |
| W2:WAI.3 | our gift, is therefore given us. We look on everyone as brothers and | perceive all things as kindly and as good. We do not seek a function |
| M:5.4 | this is enormous, because the existence of the world as we | perceive it depends on the body being the decision-maker. Terms like |
| M:16.11 | must God's teachers learn to recognize the forms of magic and | perceive their meaninglessness. Fear is withdrawn from them, and so |
| M:19.4 | It restores to your awareness the wholeness of the fragments you | perceive as broken off and separate. And it is this that overcomes |

| Tx:4.83 | remember is that the ego does not recognize the real source of its | perceived threat, and if you associate yourself with the ego, you do |
| Tx:4.95 | specific in their own judgment. For example, although all forms of | perceived demands may be classified or judged by the ego as coercive |
| Tx:5.87 | more than was necessary to keep his fear in tolerable bounds as he | perceived the situation. Therefore, he emphasized that the point in |
| Tx:5.87 | not decided to involve it in a strong defense system because he | perceived it as an attack. |
| Tx:6.13 | was their only purpose, and that is the only way in which I can be | perceived as the Way, the Truth, and the Light. |
| Tx:6.53 | from it in any way. You therefore retain the central place in your | perceived enslavement, a fact which itself demonstrates that you are |
| Tx:6.73 | At this point, the equality of “having” and “being” is not yet | perceived. Until it is, “having” appears to be the opposite of |
| Tx:7.21 | in the plural, because abilities began with the ego, which | perceived them as potentials for excelling. This is how the ego still |
| Tx:7.25 | It was created to be shared and therefore cannot be meaningfully | perceived as belonging to anyone at the expense of another. Such a |
| Tx:7.32 | be whenever it is undertaken as separate from what already is and | perceived as a means for establishing it. To believe this is possible |
| Tx:7.34 | It is therefore not the opposite of remembering, when it is properly | perceived. Perceived improperly, it induces a perception of conflict |
| Tx:7.34 | not the opposite of remembering, when it is properly perceived. | Perceived improperly, it induces a perception of conflict with |
| Tx:7.34 | with something else, as all incorrect perception does. Properly | perceived, it can be used as a way out of conflict, as all proper |
| Tx:7.35 | your forgetting must be translated into a way of remembering and not | perceived as a separate ability which opposes an opposite. That is |
| Tx:7.64 | by your perception and is not influenced by it at all. All | perceived problems in identification at any level are not problems of |
| Tx:7.65 | You can be | perceived with meaning only by the Holy Spirit, because your being is |
| Tx:7.66 | Perceived without your part in it, God's creation is perceived as | |
| Tx:7.66 | Perceived without your part in it, God's creation is | perceived as weak, and those who see themselves as weakened do |
| Tx:7.78 | Attack could never promote attack unless you | perceived it as a means of depriving you of something you want. Yet |
| Tx:7.82 | the Kingdom and keeps it in the Mind of God. To the ego, the law is | perceived as a way of getting rid of something it does not want. To |
| Tx:8.61 | In the world, not even the body is | perceived as whole. Its purpose is seen as fragmented into many |
| Tx:8.71 | to contain two voices which are fighting for its possession. In this | perceived constellation, the body is regarded as capable of shifting |
| Tx:8.90 | truth. The very fact that the Will of God, which is what you are, is | perceived as fearful to you demonstrates that you are afraid of what |
| Tx:8.116 | judgment of worth. If paying is associated with giving, it cannot be | perceived as loss, and the reciprocal relationship of giving and |
| Tx:9.87 | The Sonship cannot be | perceived as partly sick, because to perceive it that way is not to |
| Tx:10.2 | ego have made you? The authority problem remains the only source of | perceived conflict, because the ego was made out of the wish of God's |
| Tx:10.70 | that the Son of God ever had is eternal. Those which his mind | perceived in this world are the world's only reality. They are still |
| Tx:10.70 | the Father and therefore cannot die. The real world can actually be | perceived. All that is necessary is a willingness to perceive nothing |
| Tx:10.74 | reality is true is necessary. But do you believe it? When you have | perceived the real world, you will recognize that you did not believe |
| Tx:11.4 | all calls for help as exactly what they are except your own | perceived need to attack. It is only this that makes you willing to |
| Tx:11.12 | of the underlying belief it masks, you are undermining its | perceived usefulness by rendering it useless. Defenses which do not |
| Tx:11.37 | its guidance leads you to a journey which must end in | perceived self-defeat. For the ego cannot love, and in its frantic |
| Tx:11.43 | do so. Before the idea of attack can enter your mind, you must have | perceived yourself as weak. Because you had attacked yourself and |
| Tx:11.60 | What is one cannot be | perceived as separate, and the denial of the separation is the |
| Tx:11.68 | to dissociation, for it represents the acceptance of two goals, each | perceived in a different place, separated from each other because you |
| Tx:12.34 | that they are not whole. For these figures have no witnesses, being | perceived in one separate mind only. |
| Tx:12.46 | with no reference at all to the past, either his or yours as you | perceived it, you will be able to learn from what you see now. For |
| Tx:13.5 | you cannot know this until you see that every aspect is the same, | perceived in the same light and therefore one. Everyone seen without |
| Tx:13.35 | and even death become the ego's best advice for how to deal with the | perceived and harsh intrusion of guilt on peace. Yet no one sees |
| Tx:13.63 | asleep. The vision of Christ is given the very instant that it is | perceived. Where everything is clear, it is all holy. The quietness |
| Tx:14.42 | upon it of Himself. Only the clear reflection of Himself can be | perceived upon it. Reflections are seen in light. In darkness they |
| Tx:15.2 | One source of | perceived discouragement from which you suffer is your belief that |
| Tx:15.101 | Thought that has been given you. When they are brought together and | perceived where they are, the choice between them is nothing more |
| Tx:15.104 | and live within himself in peace? And who can try to resolve the | perceived conflict of Heaven and hell in him by casting Heaven out |
| Tx:16.32 | it and keep within them. The special love relationship is not | perceived as a value in itself, but as a place of safety from which |
| Tx:16.45 | where the illusion of love is accepted in love's place, love is | perceived as separation and exclusion. |
| Tx:16.52 | If you | perceived the special relationship as a triumph over God, would you |
| Tx:16.58 | How simple does this choice become when it is | perceived as only what it is. For only fantasies made confusion in |
| Tx:16.70 | change it. Imagined slights, remembered pain, past disappointments, | perceived injustices, and deprivations all enter into the special |
| Tx:16.80 | extends to bless everyone and to resolve all problems, be they | perceived as great or small, possible or impossible. There is nothing |
| Tx:17.24 | the relationships which the unholy alliance dictates are not | perceived nor felt as now. Yet the frame of reference to which the |
| Tx:17.40 | in relation to each other. The dark picture brought to light is not | perceived as fearful, but the fact that it is just a picture is |
| Tx:17.65 | is a relationship, being the joining of thoughts. If problems are | perceived, it is because the thoughts are judged to be in conflict. |
| Tx:18.2 | are the same. Substitution is clearly a process in which they are | perceived as different. One would unite; the other separate. Nothing |
| Tx:18.47 | Whichever is saner at the time when the threat is | perceived should remember how deep is his indebtedness to the other |
| Tx:18.54 | with this thing you hate, the instrument of vengeance and the | perceived source of your guilt. You have done this to a thing that |
| Tx:18.59 | of you as you unite with it. And both become whole as neither is | perceived as separate. What really happens is that you have given up |
| Tx:18.61 | at all in this escape. The body is not attacked, but simply properly | perceived. It does not limit you merely because you would not have it |
| Tx:18.94 | completely different. Here is the Source of light—nothing | perceived, forgiven, nor transformed, but merely known. |
| Tx:19.1 | faith encompasses everyone involved, for only thus the situation is | perceived as meaningful and as a whole. And everyone must be involved |
| Tx:19.2 | Every situation properly | perceived becomes an opportunity to heal the Son of God. And he is |
| Tx:19.6 | Both cannot be together nor | perceived in the same place. To dedicate yourself to both is to set |
| Tx:19.11 | keep no one separate from yours. Each one appears just as he is | perceived in the holy instant, united in your purpose to be released |
| Tx:19.20 | is seen as arrogance, and the acceptance of the self as sinful is | perceived as holiness. And it is this doctrine which replaces the |
| Tx:19.32 | prevail against it nor remain itself before the power of sin. Sin is | perceived as mightier than God, before which God Himself must bow and |
| Tx:19.88 | comes over it, remember it is always for one reason—the ego has | perceived it as a symbol of fear, a sign of sin and death. Remember |
| Tx:20.50 | no relationships and no return. Here is the “mystery” of separation | perceived in awe and held in reverence. What God would have not be is |
| Tx:20.76 | What has no meaning cannot be | perceived. And meaning always looks within to find itself and then |
| Tx:21.1 | Everything looked upon with vision is healed and holy. Nothing | perceived without it means anything. And where there is no meaning, |
| Tx:21.46 | the Holy Spirit teaches. This is the reasoning of the sane. You have | perceived the ego's madness and not been made afraid because you did |
| Tx:21.84 | is attained by giving up the wish for the inconstant. Joy cannot be | perceived except through constant vision. And constant vision can be |
| Tx:22.33 | having been made to guarantee that nothing else but form will be | perceived. |
| Tx:22.53 | service which leads to freedom. To serve this end, the body must be | perceived as sinless because the goal is sinlessness. The lack of |
| Tx:23.33 | and has no laws. To be believed, its seeming laws must be | perceived as real. Their goal of madness must be seen as sanity. And |
| Tx:23.37 | stands; senseless, impossible, and beyond all reason, and yet | perceived as an eternal barrier to Heaven. Illusions are but forms. |
| Tx:23.51 | it is over when you realize it never was begun. How can a battle be | perceived as nothingness when you engage in it? How can the truth of |
| Tx:23.53 | the limits it exerts on those in battle still are gone and not | perceived. The body stands between the Father and the Heaven He |
| Tx:24.8 | him reach it in every way you could if his attainment of it were | perceived as yours? You are his enemy in specialness; his friend in a |
| Tx:24.66 | If not, it has no purpose and is means for nothing. Whatever is | perceived as means for truth shares in its holiness and rests in |
| Tx:24.69 | are the means and purpose separate because they were so made and so | perceived. And therefore do we deal with them as if they were. It is |
| Tx:25.4 | the meeting of the holy Christ unto Himself; nor are any differences | perceived to stand between the aspects of His holiness, which meet |
| Tx:25.9 | Will of God and what you really will. But this is understood by mind | perceived as one, aware that it is one and so experienced. It is the |
| Tx:25.25 | and to each it is a perfect means to serve the goal for which it is | perceived. For specialness it is the perfect frame to set it off— |
| Tx:25.44 | seems painful to the eyes grown long accustomed to the dim effects | perceived at twilight. And they turn away from sunlight and the |
| Tx:25.47 | one perfect choice. And by this act of special faithfulness to one | perceived as other than himself, he learns the gift was given to |
| Tx:25.54 | not insane on which a sane perception can be based, another world | perceived. And one in which nothing is contradicted that would lead |
| Tx:25.54 | cruelty, to separation, and to differences. For here is everything | perceived as one, and no one loses that each one may gain. |
| Tx:25.55 | the other as insane and meaningless. Love is the basis for a world | perceived as wholly mad to sinners who believe theirs is the way to |
| Tx:25.58 | to perceive at all. To each his special function is designed to be | perceived as possible and more and more desired as it proves to him |
| Tx:25.71 | And thus is love | perceived as weak and vengeance strong. For love has lost when |
| Tx:26.29 | Where sin once was | perceived will rise a world which will become an altar to the truth, |
| Tx:26.41 | time and death are real and have existence which can be | perceived. This terrible illusion was denied in but the time it took |
| Tx:26.44 | it real. And it is real to you. It is not nothing and through its | perceived reality has entered all the world of sick illusions. All |
| Tx:26.48 | place of changeless knowledge. Yet is truth unchanged. It cannot be | perceived, but only known. What is perceived takes many forms, but |
| Tx:26.48 | is truth unchanged. It cannot be perceived, but only known. What is | perceived takes many forms, but none has meaning. Brought to truth, |
| Tx:26.69 | safer to remain a little careful and a little watchful of interests | perceived as separate. From this perception you cannot conceive of |
| Tx:26.71 | Yet space between you is apparent now and cannot be | perceived in future time. No more can it be overlooked except within |
| Tx:26.74 | there is no reason for an interval in which disaster strikes, to be | perceived as “good” some day but now in form of pain. This is a |
| Tx:26.75 | one effect which it engenders and one form in which its outcome is | perceived. This interval in time, when retribution is perceived to be |
| Tx:26.75 | its outcome is perceived. This interval in time, when retribution is | perceived to be the form in which the “good” appears, is but one |
| Tx:26.86 | could some be evaluated as unfair? Some then are given meaning and | perceived as sensible. And only some are seen as meaningless. And |
| Tx:26.87 | and attack are one mistake, so firmly joined that where one is | perceived, the other must be seen. You cannot be unfairly treated. |
| Tx:26.87 | Projection of the cause of sacrifice is at the root of everything | perceived to be unfair and not your just deserts. Yet it is you who |
| Tx:27.5 | have you believed because it witnessed to the guilt in him which you | perceived and loved. Now in the hands made gentle by His touch, the |
| Tx:27.9 | little pleasures where you can. Yet in this picture is the body not | perceived as neutral and without a goal inherent in itself. For it |
| Tx:27.23 | from yours and gives you both a different role. And so you cannot be | perceived as one and, with a single function, that would mean a |
| Tx:27.24 | half. And these two halves appear to represent a split within a self | perceived as two.] |
| Tx:27.26 | half which is denied. And only what is left without his presence is | perceived as all of you. To this remaining half the Holy Spirit must |
| Tx:27.31 | be recognized as vacant, and the time devoted to its seeing be | perceived as idly spent, a time unoccupied. |
| Tx:27.34 | which the eyes have ever seen or ears have heard remains to be | perceived. |
| Tx:27.51 | in lawful manner in accord with laws which have been properly | perceived but never violated. Fear you not the way that you perceive |
| Tx:27.58 | suffering. It is no longer there. The One Who brings the miracle | perceived them all as one and called by name of fear. As fear is |
| Tx:27.68 | really be. Of one thing you were sure—of all the many causes you | perceived as bringing pain and suffering to you, your guilt was not |
| Tx:27.71 | An honest choice could never be | perceived as one in which the choice is split between a tiny you and |
| Tx:28.25 | forgiving dreams are the effects of yours undone and hated enemies | perceived as friends with merciful intent. Their enmity is seen as |
| Tx:28.29 | perceive itself as separate and apart from you. Thus is the body not | perceived as sick by both your minds, from separate points of view. |
| Tx:28.29 | Uniting with a brother's mind prevents the cause of sickness and | perceived effects. Healing is the effect of minds which join, as |
| Tx:28.34 | left behind the open door. What is the world except a little gap | perceived to tear eternity apart and break it into days and months |
| Tx:28.47 | a sense of limitation? Of a splitting off and separating from? A gap | perceived between [ourselves] and what is seen as health? The good is |
| Tx:28.48 | [of] pain and loss, that makes them real. Unshared, they are | perceived as meaningless. The fear is gone from them because you did |
| Tx:28.53 | understand that it is here that you are kept as prisoners in a world | perceived to be existing here. The world you see does not exist |
| Tx:29.11 | where its cause is must it be. Now is it caused, though not as yet | perceived. And its effects are there, though not yet seen. Look |
| Tx:29.15 | your wish to be alive apart from life, alive in death, with death | perceived as life, and living, death. Confusion follows on confusion |
| Tx:29.18 | it seems to be a thing with power in itself. As something, it can be | perceived and thought to feel and act and hold you in its grasp as |
| Tx:29.22 | your brother then and understand what really fills the gap so long | perceived as keeping you apart. |
| Tx:29.27 | the function. It can be in you or someone else, but where it is | perceived, it will be there it is attacked. Depression or assault |
| Tx:29.49 | between the two. You choose your dreams, for they are what you wish, | perceived as if it had been given you. Your idols do what you would |
| Tx:29.52 | replaced, no matter what their form. And it is this which never is | perceived and recognized. Be it a body or a thing, a place, a |
| Tx:29.53 | complete your little self [and let you walk in] safety in a world | perceived as dangerous, with forces massed against your confidence |
| Tx:29.54 | you see. An idol is a wish made tangible and given form and thus | perceived as real and seen outside the mind. Yet it is still a |
| Tx:29.67 | time is almost over. And the forms which enter in the dream are now | perceived as brothers, not in judgment but in love. |
| Tx:30.56 | fade and disappear. For here the gap that is not there begins to be | perceived without the toys of terror that you made. No more than this |
| Tx:30.57 | the escape from guilt becomes its aim. The value of forgiveness is | perceived and takes the place of idols which are sought no longer, |
| Tx:30.58 | one is tempted by its vain appeal, for suffering and death have been | perceived as things not wanted and not striven for. The possibility |
| Tx:30.61 | the mind has learned how easily do idols go when they are still | perceived, but wanted not. How willingly the mind can let them go |
| Tx:31.8 | and everything within the world has always made, but you had not | perceived it as it was. And now you see you were mistaken. You had |
| Tx:31.28 | Sins are in bodies. They are not | perceived in minds. They are not seen as purposes but actions. Bodies |
| Tx:31.48 | sins and yours preserved and kept in darkness where they cannot be | perceived as errors, which the light would surely show. You can be |
| Tx:31.66 | One vision, clearly seen, that does not fit the picture as it was | perceived before will change the world for eyes that learn to see, |
| Tx:31.66 | you with eyes that see as yours. Are you a body? So is all the world | perceived as treacherous and out to kill. |
| Tx:31.70 | good is never what the body seems to be. The actions of the body are | perceived as coming from the “baser” part of you and thus of him as |
| Tx:31.71 | it was not made for you alone. Born as a gift for someone not | perceived to be yourself, it has been given you. For your |
| W1:5.1 | hatred, jealousy, or any number of forms, all of which will be | perceived as different. This is not true. However, until you learn |
| W1:5.2 | When using the idea for today for a specific | perceived cause of an upset in any form, use both the name of the |
| W1:5.8 | You may also find yourself less willing to apply today's idea to some | perceived sources of upset than to others. If this occurs, think |
| W1:6.1 | form of upset (anger, fear, worry, depression, and so on) and the | perceived source very specifically for any application of the idea. |
| W1:22.1 | he sees vengeance about to strike at him. His own attack is thus | perceived as self defense. This becomes an increasingly vicious |
| W1:24.1 | Yet they are your only goal in any situation which is correctly | perceived. Otherwise, you will not recognize what they are. |
| W1:36.1 | Today's idea extends the idea for yesterday from the perceiver to the | perceived. You are holy because your mind is part of God's. And |
| W1:44.5 | you have made up. Properly speaking, this is the release from hell. | Perceived through the ego's eyes, it is loss of identity and a |
| W1:50.2 | It will lift you out of every trial and raise you high above all the | perceived dangers of this world into a climate of perfect peace and |
| W1:65.2 | what today's idea really means. It offers you escape from all your | perceived difficulties. It places the key to the door of peace, which |
| W1:71.2 | you would be saved. Thus the source of salvation is constantly | perceived as outside yourself. |

| W1:108.2 | a state of mind which has become so unified that darkness cannot be | perceived at all. And thus what is the same is seen as one, while |
| W1:108.4 | is the base on which all opposites are reconciled because they are | perceived from the same frame of reference which unifies this thought. |
| W1:134.1 | the meaning of “forgive,” for it is apt to be distorted and to be | perceived as something which entails an unfair sacrifice of righteous |
| W1:135.9 | body, valueless and hardly worth the least defense, need merely be | perceived as quite apart from you, and it becomes a healthy, |
| W1:138.2 | the world can understand. Truth cannot come where it could only be | perceived with fear, for this would be the error truth can be brought |
| W1:R4.5 | may be carefully concealed. Because they are illusions, they are not | perceived to be but what they are—defenses which protect your |

| W1:155.1 | the world as you do recognize their own. Yet those who have not yet | perceived the way will recognize you also and believe that you are |
| W1:158.8 | nor set up a goal which does not merely disappear when this has been | perceived. And this you give today—see no one as a body. Greet him |
| W1:161.7 | is specific. There must be a thing to be attacked. An enemy must be | perceived in such a form he can be touched and seen and heard and |

| W1:163.4 | to idols such as this? Here is the strength and might of God Himself | perceived within an idol made of dust. Here is the opposite of God |
| W1:164.6 | and salvation of the world. The valuable and valueless are both | perceived and recognized for what they are. And what is worthy of |
| W1:181.1 | attack a brother, you proclaim that he is limited by what you have | perceived in him. You do not look beyond his errors. Rather, they are |
| W1:189.3 | of malice and of fear that one belies the other. Only one can be | perceived at all. The other one is wholly meaningless. A world in |
| W1:190.3 | place of truth. It demonstrates God is denied, confused with fear, | perceived as mad, and seen as traitor to Himself. If God is real, |
| W1:192.5 | Forgiveness lets the body be | perceived as what it is—a simple teaching aid to be laid by when |
| W1:194.3 | In no one instant is depression felt or pain experienced or loss | perceived. In no one instant sorrow can be set upon a throne and |
| W1:196.11 | Now for an instant is a murderer | perceived within you, eager for your death, intent on plotting |
| W1:197.2 | and salvation are not seen as one, and freedom and salvation are | perceived as joined, with strength beside them, to be sought and |
| W1:198.13 | And now the Word of God alone remains upon it. Only that can be | perceived an instant longer. Then are symbols done and everything you |
| W1:200.8 | cross to leave this world behind. But peace begins within the world | perceived as different and leading from this fresh perception to the |
| W2:WIHS.1 | There are sights and sounds forever laid aside. And where they were | perceived before, forgiveness has made possible perception's tranquil |
| W2:284.1 | Loss is not loss when properly | perceived. Pain is impossible. There is no grief with any cause at |
| W2:WIRW.1 | the witnesses of terror to your mind. The real world cannot be | perceived except through eyes forgiveness blesses, so they see a |

| M:14.1 | that they have a purpose; that they serve a need or gratify a want. | Perceived as purposeless, they are no longer seen. Their uselessness |
| M:17.5 | Anger in response to | perceived magic thoughts is the basic cause of fear. Consider what |
| M:19.3 | is every concept of the world built up in just this way. “Sins” are | perceived and justified by this careful selectivity in which all |
| M:20.2 | and in its place is everlasting quiet. Only that. The contrast first | perceived has merely gone. Quiet has reached to cover everything. |
| M:20.3 | is found, the war is meaningless. And it is conflict now that is | perceived as non-existent and unreal. |
| M:28.2 | Life is now recognized as salvation, and pain and misery of any kind | perceived as hell. Love is no longer feared but gladly welcomed. |

| Tx:3.47 | It can be perceived as an attacker, but it cannot attack. What man | perceives as its attack is merely his own vague recognition of the |
| Tx:3.66 | the author of himself, projects his delusion onto others, and then | perceives the situation as one in which people are literally fighting |
| Tx:3.74 | but which he does not choose to correct and therefore | perceives the cause as beyond his control. We have discussed the |
| Tx:4.25 | variation because of its instability, and one for everyone he | perceives, which is equally variable. Their interaction is a process |
| Tx:4.45 | way, the ego has taken the impulses from the superconscious and | perceives them as if they arise in the unconscious. The ego judges |
| Tx:4.46 | primarily with its own preservation in the face of threat, the ego | perceives them as the same. The threat-value of the lofty is actually |
| Tx:4.95 | Everything the ego | perceives is a separate whole, without the relationships that imply |
| Tx:4.96 | It will respond in certain specific ways to all stimuli which it | perceives as related. In contrast the Soul reacts in the same way to |
| Tx:5.42 | you are at home only in eternity. The ego made the world as it | perceives it, but the Holy Spirit, the reinterpreter of what the ego |
| Tx:5.64 | The ego does not perceive sin as a lack of love. It | perceives sin as a positive act of assault. This is an interpretation |
| Tx:5.65 | own prerogative. It tries to usurp all the functions of God as it | perceives them, because it recognizes that only total allegiance can |
| Tx:5.74 | a complete fallacy which they were made to uphold. Nothing the ego | perceives is interpreted correctly. Not only does it cite Scripture |
| Tx:6.29 | it establishes inclusion. Perceiving equality, the Holy Spirit | perceives equal needs. This invites Atonement automatically, because |

| Tx:6.37 | Holy Spirit projects by recognizing Himself in every mind and thus | perceives them as one. Nothing conflicts in this perception, because |
| Tx:6.37 | Nothing conflicts in this perception, because what the Holy Spirit | perceives is the same. Wherever He looks He sees Himself, and because |
| Tx:6.42 | Spirit because, as you see His gentleness in others, your own mind | perceives itself as totally harmless. Once it can accept this fully, |
| Tx:6.74 | Upside-down as always, the ego | perceives the first lesson as insane. In fact this is its only |
| Tx:6.77 | it is up to you to decide what God's creations are. The Holy Spirit | perceives the conflict exactly as it is. Therefore, His second lesson |
| Tx:7.9 | of the elements which they share, can transfer to it. When a brother | perceives himself as sick, he is perceiving himself as not whole and |
| Tx:7.13 | A person conceives of himself as separate largely because he | perceives of himself as bounded by a body. Only if he perceives |
| Tx:7.13 | because he perceives of himself as bounded by a body. Only if he | perceives himself as a mind can [he overcome this]. Then he is free |
| Tx:7.21 | them as potentials for excelling. This is how the ego still | perceives them and uses them. |
| Tx:7.27 | said before that the ego's friend is not part of you, since the ego | perceives itself as at war and therefore in need of allies. You who |
| Tx:7.42 | Healing only strengthens. Magic always tries to weaken. Healing | perceives nothing in the healer that everyone else does not share |
| Tx:7.59 | all recognition, all sane perception, and all knowledge. It | perceives their threat as total, because it senses the fact that all |
| Tx:7.60 | conflict as meaningless. We said before that the Holy Spirit | perceives the conflict exactly as it is, and it is meaningless. The |
| Tx:7.107 | against your nature, being out of accord with God's laws. The world | perceives orders of difficulty in everything. This is because the ego |
| Tx:7.107 | orders of difficulty in everything. This is because the ego | perceives nothing as wholly desirable. By demonstrating to yourselves |
| Tx:8.79 | of anything whose interpretation is left to the Holy Spirit, Who | perceives no attack on anything. Health is the result of |
| Tx:9.15 | unpredictable in its responses, because it has no idea of what it | perceives. |
| Tx:9.40 | perfectly obvious that if the Holy Spirit looks with love on all He | perceives, He looks with love on you. His evaluation of you is based |
| Tx:9.40 | is unaware of what you are and wholly mistrustful of everything it | perceives, because its own perceptions are so shifting. The ego is |
| Tx:9.93 | the wages of sin is death. The sense is very literal; denial of life | perceives its opposite, as all forms of denial replace what is with |
| Tx:10.53 | that separation is salvation, the ego attacks everything it | perceives by breaking it up into small and disconnected parts without |
| Tx:10.54 | focuses on error and overlooks truth. It makes real every mistake it | perceives, and with characteristically circular reasoning concludes |
| Tx:10.55 | it unifies on behalf of itself. This, then, becomes the universe it | perceives. And it is this universe which, in turn, becomes its |
| Tx:11.29 | making some sort of insane “arrangement” with the world. He always | perceives this world as outside himself, for this is crucial to his |
| Tx:11.54 | The Holy Spirit is your strength because He | perceives nothing but your Soul as you. He is perfectly aware that |
| Tx:11.85 | of punishment. But herein lies the split. For the mind that judges | perceives itself as separate from the mind being judged, believing |
| Tx:12.31 | of past and future under its direction is the only purpose the ego | perceives in time, and it closes over the present so that no gap in |
| Tx:12.33 | meaning at all. In this world their maker moves alone, for only he | perceives them. |
| Tx:12.65 | him and within him. He must deny the world of pain the instant he | perceives the arms of love around him. And from this point of safety, |
| Tx:13.35 | finds himself ravaged and torn in endless battles which he himself | perceives as wholly without meaning. |
| Tx:14.4 | the guilty are totally incapable of understanding one another. Each | perceives the other as like himself, making them unable to |
| Tx:14.20 | most holy purpose. He knows you are not separate from God, but He | perceives much in your mind that lets you think you are. All this, |
| Tx:14.22 | say, and so you know not what is said to you. Yet your Interpreter | perceives the meaning in your alien language. He will not attempt to |
| Tx:14.44 | Its meaning to those who look upon it is not obscure, for everyone | perceives it as the same. All bring their different problems to its |
| Tx:14.74 | ever in His sight, He gives the gift of peace to everyone who | perceives the need for peace and who would have it. Make way for |
| Tx:15.49 | The Holy Spirit knows no one is special. Yet He also | perceives that you have made special relationships, which He would |
| Tx:15.66 | to attract through love and has no attraction at all to anyone who | perceives that it attracts through guilt. |
| Tx:15.79 | you are limitless. In the face of your fear of forgiveness, which He | perceives as clearly as He knows forgiveness is release, He will |
| Tx:16.59 | unless a relationship has special value, it has no meaning, and it | perceives all love as special. Yet this cannot be natural, for it is |
| Tx:17.16 | reinforce itself, as holiness does, by gathering to itself what it | perceives as like itself. |
| Tx:17.21 | He is not at all confused by any “reasons” for separation. All He | perceives in separation is that it must be undone. Let Him uncover |
| Tx:18.2 | The Holy Spirit never uses substitutes. Where the ego | perceives one person as a replacement for another, the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:19.3 | no healing. Its health or sickness depends entirely on how the mind | perceives it and the purpose which the mind would use it for. And it |

| Tx:25.38 | to be feared instead of loved. Who would attack whatever he | perceives as wholly innocent? And who, because he wishes to attack, |
| Tx:25.55 | faith. But nothing else. What is not love is sin, and either one | perceives the other as insane and meaningless. Love is the basis for |
| Tx:26.40 | like to one who still hallucinates but lacks conviction in what he | perceives. This is the borderland between the worlds, the bridge |
| Tx:26.48 | in the world of shadows and illusions built on sin. The Son of God | perceives what he would see, because perception is a wish fulfilled. |
| Tx:26.56 | sin. And every miracle is possible the instant that the Son of God | perceives his wishes and the Will of God are one. |
| Tx:27.20 | the Holy Spirit and the world interpret differently. The world | perceives it as a statement of the “fact” that your salvation |
| Tx:27.50 | for him to see. Its very nature is that it is not. And thus while he | perceives it, he can not perceive it as it is. But healing is |
| Tx:27.65 | condemnation of the world will rest on him. And it is this that he | perceives to be his part in its deliverance. Vengeance must have a |

| Tx:29.27 | heavy lump of fear which is their core. And it is this the miracle | perceives, and not the wrappings in which it is bound. |

| W2:WIHS.2 | truth. For learning, as the Holy Spirit guides it to the outcome He | perceives for it, becomes the means to go beyond itself, to be |
| W2:315.1 | gladdened. Someone speaks a word of gratitude or mercy, and my mind | perceives this gift and takes it as its own. And everyone who finds |
| M:4.15 | choice but this has meaning to the sane? Who chooses hell when he | perceives a way to Heaven? And who would choose the weakness that |
| M:16.7 | will not fail. He need make no distinctions among the problems he | perceives, for He to Whom he turns with all of them recognizes no |
| M:21.5 | may also seem to be quite irrelevant to the presented problem as he | perceives it, and may, in fact, confront him with a situation that |

| Tx:8.35 | because it is one. If you exclude yourself from this union, you are | perceiving the Holy Trinity as separated. You must be included in It, |

| Tx:3.61 | rests. We have discussed this before in terms of the selectivity of | perception, pointing out that evaluation is its obvious prerequisite. |
| Tx:3.63 | and this is the process which enables recognition to replace | perception. |
| Tx:3.70 | own peace, so that they see themselves only in pieces. This strange | perception is the authority problem. |
| Tx:3.77 | Images are perceived, not known. Knowledge cannot deceive, but | perception can. Man can perceive himself as self-creating, but he |
| Tx:3.80 | are willing death. Life and death, light and darkness, knowledge and | perception are irreconcilable. To believe that they can be reconciled |

| Tx:4.25 | Thinking about another ego is as effective in changing relative | perception as is physical interaction. There could be no better |
| Tx:4.31 | it cannot establish the reality of itself. In fact, its whole | perception of other egos as real is only an attempt to convince |
| Tx:4.35 | account of “the creation” and associates this with its particular | perception of magic. The “battle for survival” is nothing more than |
| Tx:4.36 | Right-mindedness dictates the next step automatically, because right | perception is uniformly without attack, so that wrong-mindedness is |
| Tx:4.37 | of reliability and not validity. “Reliable behavior” is a meaningful | perception as far as ego thinking goes. However, “valid behavior” is |
| Tx:4.42 | has not ceased to create because your ego has set you on the road of | perception. Your Soul's creations are no more fatherless than you |
| Tx:4.74 | ability would naturally develop, would necessarily involve accurate | perception, a state of clarity which the ego, fearful of being judged |
| Tx:4.80 | unthinkable. That state in itself is enough to demonstrate that the | perception is wrong. |
| Tx:4.81 | It cannot be emphasized too often that correcting | perception is merely a temporary expedient. It is necessary to do so |
| Tx:4.81 | only because misperception is a block to knowledge, while accurate | perception is a stepping-stone towards it. The whole value of right |
| Tx:4.81 | perception is a stepping-stone towards it. The whole value of right | perception lies in the inevitable judgment which it entails that it |
| Tx:4.85 | are throwing away the graciousness of your indebtedness and the holy | perception it would produce. |
| Tx:4.86 | whole Sonship, which includes me, you come as close to knowledge as | perception ever can. The gap is then so small that knowledge can |
| Tx:4.90 | I will go with you to the Holy One, and through my | perception, He can bridge the little gap. Your gratitude to each |
| Tx:4.100 | He is. He has no ego with which to accept such thanks and no | perception with which to judge such offerings. But unless you take |
| Tx:5.11 | allows it to come. We have spoken before of the higher or the “true” | perception, which is so close to truth that God Himself can flow |
| Tx:5.11 | is the Christ Mind, which senses the knowledge that lies beyond | perception. It came into being with the separation as a protection, |
| Tx:5.12 | the old learning and the new situation to which it is transferred. | Perception is not knowledge, but it can be transferred to knowledge |
| Tx:5.13 | Spirit, the shared Inspiration of all the Sonship, induces a kind of | perception in which many elements are like those in the Kingdom of |
| Tx:5.17 | be quite familiar, because it is very similar to the shift in time | perception which the miracle introduces. The Holy Spirit is the |
| Tx:5.32 | said that the Holy Spirit is the bridge or thought-transfer of | perception to knowledge, so we can use the terms as if they were |
| Tx:5.40 | Peace and eternity are as closely related as are time and war. | Perception as well as knowledge derives meaning from relationships. |
| Tx:5.44 | except for yourself. That exception has given you more than | perception for others because of what you saw in them but less than |
| Tx:5.44 | you did not accept them as part of you. Understanding is beyond | perception because it introduces meaning. It is, however, below |
| Tx:5.85 | and enlightenment is understanding. Enlightenment stands under | perception, because you have denied it as the real foundation of |
| Tx:6.15 | My one lesson, which I must teach as I learned, is that no | perception which is out of accord with the judgment of the Holy |
| Tx:6.28 | The ego uses projection only to distort your | perception both of yourself and your brothers. The process begins by |
| Tx:6.31 | The perfect equality of the Holy Spirit's | perception is the counterpart of the perfect equality of God's |
| Tx:6.31 | the counterpart of the perfect equality of God's knowing. The ego's | perception has no counterpart in God, but the Holy Spirit remains the |
| Tx:6.31 | counterpart in God, but the Holy Spirit remains the bridge between | perception and knowledge. By enabling you to use perception in a way |
| Tx:6.31 | the bridge between perception and knowledge. By enabling you to use | perception in a way that parallels knowledge, you will ultimately |
| Tx:6.31 | prefer to believe that this meeting is impossible, yet it is your | perception which the Holy Spirit guides. You might remember that the |
| Tx:6.31 | the same as in the future if time and space are one dimension. Your | perception will end where it began. Everything meets in God, because |
| Tx:6.33 | your minds are split, you can also perceive as well as think. Yet | perception cannot escape from the basic laws of mind. You perceive |
| Tx:6.33 | from your mind and extend your perceptions outward. Although | perception of any kind is unnecessary, you made it, and the Holy |
| Tx:6.33 | it, and the Holy Spirit can therefore use it well. He can inspire | perception and lead it toward God by making it parallel to God's way |
| Tx:6.36 | your mind converge with His. There is no conflict anywhere in this | perception, because it means that all perception is guided by the |
| Tx:6.36 | no conflict anywhere in this perception, because it means that all | perception is guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. |
| Tx:6.37 | every mind and thus perceives them as one. Nothing conflicts in this | perception, because what the Holy Spirit perceives is the same. |
| Tx:6.40 | The Holy Spirit still holds knowledge safe through His impartial | perception. By attacking nothing, He presents no barrier at all to |
| Tx:6.49 | him, they join in the attack together. This is perhaps the strangest | perception of all if you consider what it really involves. The ego, |
| Tx:6.65 | communication into being, just as He ultimately translates | perception into knowledge. [You do not lose what you communicate.] |
| Tx:6.65 | body for attack, for pleasure, and for pride. The insanity of this | perception makes it a fearful one indeed. The Holy Spirit sees the |
| Tx:6.69 | than resolve it, because it is the beginning step in reversing your | perception and turning it right-side up. This conflicts with the |
| Tx:6.69 | and turning it right-side up. This conflicts with the upside-down | perception which you have not yet abandoned, or the change in |
| Tx:6.80 | is still perceptual, although it is a giant step toward the unified | perception which parallels God's knowing. |
| Tx:6.93 | The wholeness of the Kingdom does not depend on your | perception, but your awareness of its wholeness does. It is only your |
| Tx:7.10 | To heal, then, is to correct | perception in your brother and yourself by sharing the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:7.25 | perceived as belonging to anyone at the expense of another. Such a | perception makes it meaningless by eliminating or overlooking its |
| Tx:7.34 | when it is properly perceived. Perceived improperly, it induces a | perception of conflict with something else, as all incorrect |
| Tx:7.34 | a perception of conflict with something else, as all incorrect | perception does. Properly perceived, it can be used as a way out of |
| Tx:7.34 | perceived, it can be used as a way out of conflict, as all proper | perception can. |
| Tx:7.36 | the only way of perceiving the Sonship without this belief. This | perception is therefore in accord with the laws of God, even in a |
| Tx:7.36 | state of mind which is out of accord with His. The strength of right | perception is so great that it brings the mind into accord with His, |
| Tx:7.54 | return to the mind of the thinker, and they will affect his total | perception. That includes his perception of God, of His creations, |
| Tx:7.54 | and they will affect his total perception. That includes his | perception of God, of His creations, and of his own. He will not |
| Tx:7.59 | The ego therefore opposes all appreciation, all recognition, all sane | perception, and all knowledge. It perceives their threat as total, |
| Tx:7.64 | you are thinking insanely. What you are is not established by your | perception and is not influenced by it at all. All perceived problems |
| Tx:7.73 | is the mirror in which you will see the image of yourself as long as | perception lasts. And perception will last until the Sonship knows |
| Tx:7.73 | you will see the image of yourself as long as perception lasts. And | perception will last until the Sonship knows itself as whole. |
| Tx:7.74 | You made | perception, and it must last as long as you want it. Illusions are |
| Tx:7.89 | to perceive beyond belief, because truth is beyond belief, and His | perception is true. The ego can be completely forgotten at any time, |
| Tx:7.89 | because it is unbelievable. The utter meaninglessness of all | perception that comes from the unbelievable must be apparent, but it |
| Tx:7.97 | is maintained by extension. The miracle is a lesson in total | perception. By including any part of totality in the lesson, you have |
| Tx:7.111 | has given you. Nothing is as easy to perceive as truth. This is the | perception which is immediate, clear, and natural. You have trained |
| Tx:8.63 | it. If the mind believes the body is its goal, it will distort its | perception of the body and, by blocking its own extension beyond it, |
| Tx:8.64 | can you do both simultaneously with the same thing and not suffer? | Perception of the body can be unified only by one purpose. This |
| Tx:8.70 | does not define the whole. This is as true of knowledge as it is of | perception. The reason to know in part is to know entirely is because |
| Tx:8.70 | is because of the fundamental difference between knowledge and | perception. In perception the whole is built up of parts, which can |
| Tx:8.70 | of the fundamental difference between knowledge and perception. In | perception the whole is built up of parts, which can separate and |
| Tx:8.79 | be a mirror of a split mind. Do not let it be an image of your own | perception of littleness. Do not let it reflect your will to attack. |
| Tx:8.80 | aim for healing. Ask rather that the Holy Spirit teach you the right | perception of the body, for perception alone can be distorted. Only |
| Tx:8.80 | that the Holy Spirit teach you the right perception of the body, for | perception alone can be distorted. Only perception can be sick, |
| Tx:8.80 | perception of the body, for perception alone can be distorted. Only | perception can be sick, because only perception can be wrong. |
| Tx:8.80 | alone can be distorted. Only perception can be sick, because only | perception can be wrong. |
| Tx:8.81 | Wrong | perception is distorted willing, which wants things to be as they are |
| Tx:8.93 | into what you have hidden and perceive the Will of God there. His | perception of this will can make it real to you because He is in your |
| Tx:8.93 | He is in your mind and therefore He is your reality. If, then, His | perception of your mind brings its reality to you, He is teaching you |
| Tx:9.9 | is to overlook. Look, then, beyond error, and do not let your | perception rest upon it, for you will believe what your perception |
| Tx:9.9 | not let your perception rest upon it, for you will believe what your | perception holds. Accept as true only what your brother is if you |
| Tx:9.27 | by his acknowledgment, the therapist knows it is there. That is how | perception ultimately is translated into knowledge. The miracle |
| Tx:9.27 | The miracle worker begins by perceiving light and translates his | perception into sureness by continually extending it and accepting |
| Tx:9.41 | are, because you do not understand how lofty the Holy Spirit's | perception of you really is. He is not deceived by anything you do, |
| Tx:9.42 | your motives as soon as they become clearly out of accord with its | perception of you. This is when it will shift abruptly from |
| Tx:9.60 | you perceive is up to you, because your will determines your | perception of it. |
| Tx:9.70 | His return in exchange for yours is the exchange of knowledge for | perception. Nothing is beyond His Will for you. But signify your will |
| Tx:9.86 | judge unreality for what it is. This is the right use of selective | perception. To overlook nothingness is merely to judge it correctly, |
| Tx:10.54 | The ego's interpretation of the laws of | perception are, and would have to be, the exact opposite of the Holy |
| Tx:10.56 | of the ego's demonstrations to those who would listen. Selective | perception chooses its witnesses carefully, and its witnesses are |
| Tx:10.60 | and are answered together. There has been much confusion about what | perception means because the same word is used both for awareness and |
| Tx:10.60 | against it and therefore do not believe it. And if belief determines | perception, you do not perceive what it means and therefore do not |
| Tx:10.69 | not perceiving at all. What, then, is the world that awaits your | perception when you see it? |
| Tx:10.72 | The | perception of goodness is not knowledge, but the denial of the |
| Tx:10.74 | not believe it. Yet the swiftness with which your new and only real | perception will be translated into knowledge will leave you only an |
| Tx:10.75 | Heaven. The re-interpretation of the world is the transfer of all | perception to knowledge. The Bible tells you to become as little |
| Tx:10.76 | are not misguided; you have accepted no guide at all. Instruction in | perception is your great need, for you understand nothing. Recognize |
| Tx:10.82 | takes, because you believe that you can get by taking. And by that | perception, you have lost sight of the real world. You are afraid of |
| Tx:10.86 | Do not accept your brother's variable | perception of himself, for his split mind is yours, and you will not |
| Tx:11.4 | response will be inappropriate to reality as it is but not to your | perception of it. This is poor reality testing by definition. There |
| Tx:11.55 | is in you. As self-value comes from self-extension, so does the | perception of self-value come from the projection of loving thoughts |
| Tx:11.59 | Spirit has at last led you to Christ at the altar to His Father, | perception fuses into knowledge because perception has become so holy |
| Tx:11.59 | at the altar to His Father, perception fuses into knowledge because | perception has become so holy that its transfer to holiness is merely |
| Tx:11.59 | for its applicability is universal. When this has been accomplished, | perception and knowledge have become so similar that they share the |
| Tx:11.60 | is the reinstatement of knowledge. At the altar of God, the holy | perception of God's Son becomes so enlightened that light streams |
| Tx:11.61 | to all situations, you will gain the real world. For in this holy | perception, you will be made whole, and the Atonement will radiate |
| Tx:11.65 | You see what you expect, and you expect what you invite. Your | perception is the result of your invitation, coming to you as you |
| Tx:11.65 | see in. Two ways of looking at the world are in your mind, and your | perception will reflect the guidance you chose. |
| Tx:11.67 | not up to you whether to project, for projection is a law of mind. | Perception is projection, and you look in before you look out. As you |
| Tx:11.80 | will answer every question you ask, and a Vision will correct the | perception of everything you see. For what you have made invisible is |
| Tx:11.82 | Yet what He does see is yours to behold, and through His vision your | perception is healed. You have made the invisible the only truth that |
| Tx:11.84 | will make everything else invisible, for beholding it is total | perception. And as you look upon it, you will remember that it was |
| Tx:11.84 | become invisible, for you will at last have seen truly. Redeemed | perception is easily translated into knowledge, for only perception |
| Tx:11.84 | Redeemed perception is easily translated into knowledge, for only | perception is capable of error, and perception has never been. Being |
| Tx:11.84 | into knowledge, for only perception is capable of error, and | perception has never been. Being corrected, it gives place to |
| Tx:12.25 | death? You have been as selective in your questioning as in your | perception. An open mind is more honest than this. |
| Tx:12.29 | the present is without meaning. It is evident that the Holy Spirit's | perception of time is the exact opposite of the ego's. The reason is |
| Tx:12.35 | upon them, and he alone believes they answered him. Projection makes | perception, and you cannot see beyond it. Again and again have men |
| Tx:12.42 | And He will not return unto the Father until He has extended your | perception even unto Him. And there perception is no more, for He has |
| Tx:12.42 | until He has extended your perception even unto Him. And there | perception is no more, for He has returned you to the Father with Him. |
| Tx:12.67 | for the Holy Spirit corrects the world of dreams, where all | perception is. Knowledge needs no correction. Yet the dreams of love |
| Tx:12.71 | God's Son is not a traveler through outer worlds. However holy his | perception may become, no world outside himself holds his |
| Tx:13.1 | unequivocally knows also that it dwells in eternity and utilizes no | perception at all. It therefore does not consider where it is because |
| Tx:13.2 | The very real difference between | perception and knowledge becomes quite apparent if you consider this: |
| Tx:13.2 | knows you. All knowledge must be yours, for in you is all knowledge. | Perception at its loftiest is never complete. Even the perception of |
| Tx:13.2 | knowledge. Perception at its loftiest is never complete. Even the | perception of the Holy Spirit, as perfect as perception can be, is |
| Tx:13.2 | complete. Even the perception of the Holy Spirit, as perfect as | perception can be, is without meaning in Heaven. Perception can reach |
| Tx:13.2 | as perfect as perception can be, is without meaning in Heaven. | Perception can reach everywhere under His guidance, for the vision of |
| Tx:13.2 | for the vision of Christ beholds everything in light. Yet no | perception, however holy, will last forever. |
| Tx:13.3 | Perfect | perception, then, has many elements in common with knowledge, making |
| Tx:13.5 | forever. Every miracle you offer to the Son of God is but the true | perception of one aspect of the whole. Though every aspect is the |
| Tx:13.20 | the real source of your guilt and keep from your awareness the full | perception that it is insane. Displacement always is maintained by |
| Tx:13.38 | give this peace, for nothing in this world is wholly shared. Perfect | perception can merely show you what is capable of being wholly |
| Tx:13.50 | the actual extent of its insanity. There is no area of your | perception that it has not touched, and your dream is sacred to you. |
| Tx:14.24 | disappears in light, so ignorance fades away when knowledge dawns. | Perception is the medium by which ignorance is brought to knowledge. |
| Tx:14.24 | is the medium by which ignorance is brought to knowledge. Yet the | perception must be without deceit, for otherwise it becomes the |
| Tx:14.28 | on behalf of truth only because you made them against it. His | perception of them, according to His purpose, merely changes them |
| Tx:14.30 | judgment must prevail, and He will give it to you as you join your | perception to His. Joining with Him in seeing is the way in which you |
| Tx:14.30 | the way in which you learn to share with Him the interpretation of | perception that leads to knowledge. |
| Tx:14.31 | You cannot see alone. Sharing | perception with Him Whom God has given you teaches you how to |
| Tx:14.46 | When no | perception stands between God and His creations, or between His |
| Tx:14.47 | By sharing its reflection here, its truth becomes the only | perception the Son of God accepts. And thus, remembrance of his |
| Tx:14.52 | to what a brother really offers you, but only to the particular | perception of his offering by which the ego judges it. |
| Tx:15.19 | sources of ego support. As a result, they witness to the ego in your | perception and seem to provide reasons for not letting it go. Yet |
| Tx:15.53 | you now. The holy instant parallels His knowing by bringing all | perception out of the past, thus removing the frame of reference you |
| Tx:15.85 | As the ego would limit your | perception of your brothers to the body, so would the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:15.85 | you, for it is permanent. For once you have accepted it as the only | perception you want, it is translated into knowledge by the part |
| Tx:15.90 | You have no conception of the limits you have placed on your | perception and no idea of all the loveliness that you could see. But |
| Tx:15.95 | is possible to do this all at once because there is but one shift in | perception that is necessary, for you made but one mistake. It seems |
| Tx:16.6 | bring peace to anyone. Offer your empathy to Him, for it is His | perception and His strength that you would share. And let Him offer |
| Tx:16.6 | that you would share. And let Him offer you His strength and His | perception to be shared through you. |
| Tx:16.12 | thinks, and what is natural to Him is natural to you. Wholly natural | perception would show you instantly that order of difficulty in |
| Tx:16.13 | you and have offered it to Him to use as He knows how, His natural | perception of your gift enables Him to understand it and you to use |
| Tx:16.51 | deprived could value specialness. The demand for specialness and the | perception of the giving of specialness as an act of love would make |
| Tx:16.61 | is a device for limiting your self to a body and for limiting your | perception of others to theirs. The Great Rays would establish the |
| Tx:17.9 | it. And with this final blessing of God's Son upon himself, the real | perception, born of the new perspective he has learned, has served |
| Tx:17.10 | light, and the sun which opened up the world to beauty will vanish. | Perception will be meaningless when it has been perfected, for |
| Tx:17.10 | no shifts nor shadings, no differences, no variations which made | perception possible will occur. The perception of the real world will |
| Tx:17.10 | no variations which made perception possible will occur. The | perception of the real world will be so short that you will barely |
| Tx:17.11 | old, the world you see without forgiveness. The Great Transformer of | perception will undertake with you the careful searching of the mind |
| Tx:17.12 | across chaos and removing all illusions which had twisted your | perception and fixed it on the past. The smallest leaf becomes a |
| Tx:17.17 | not there. Even the body of the other, already a severely limited | perception of him, is not the central focus as it is or in entirety. |
| Tx:17.20 | extends the present by increasing its reality and its value in your | perception of it. In these loving thoughts is the spark of beauty |
| Tx:17.26 | relationship to you be real to you, and let me bring reality to your | perception of your brothers. They were not created to enable you to |
| Tx:17.44 | The holy relationship, a major step toward the | perception of the real world, is learned. It is the old unholy |
| Tx:17.47 | of view of this new purpose, they are inevitably appalled. Their | perception of the relationship may even become quite disorganized. |
| Tx:17.47 | become quite disorganized. And yet, the former organization of their | perception no longer serves the purpose they have agreed to meet. |
| Tx:18.3 | variable behavior, a far more serious effect lies in the fragmented | perception from which the behavior stems. No one is seen complete. |
| Tx:18.15 | with what is true. They are the best example you could have of how | perception can be utilized to substitute illusions for truth. You do |
| Tx:18.53 | the shift from fantasies of vengeance to release from them? Your | perception of the body can clearly be sick, but project not this upon |
| Tx:18.91 | rise in your imagination, and from the clouds the messengers of your | perception return to you, assuring you that it is all there. Figures |
| Tx:18.93 | you forgiven, for here you have forgiven everyone. Here is the new | perception, where everything is bright and shining with innocence, |
| Tx:18.98 | only purpose will be creating. Yet this you cannot know until every | perception has been cleansed and purified and finally removed |
| Tx:18.98 | and sure within its gentleness to the bright world of new and clean | perception. There is your purpose now. And it is there that peace |
| Tx:19.4 | faithlessness leads straight to illusions. For faithlessness is the | perception of a brother as a body, and the body cannot be used for |
| Tx:19.12 | to bodies for its justification. It is the messenger of the new | perception sent forth to gather witnesses unto its coming and to |
| Tx:19.12 | as is the real world. For faith arises from the Holy Spirit's | perception and is the sign you share it with Him. Faith is a gift you |
| Tx:19.27 | but keeping it uncorrectable. This is not really a change in your | perception, for it is sin that calls for punishment, not error. The |
| Tx:19.29 | the plane, the line seems discontinuous. And this is but an error in | perception which can be easily corrected in the mind, although the |
| Tx:19.30 | this can be corrected by the mind. But sin is the belief that your | perception is unchangeable and that the mind must accept as true what |
| Tx:19.30 | obey, the mind is judged insane. The only power which could change | perception is thus kept impotent, held to the body by the fear of |
| Tx:19.30 | is thus kept impotent, held to the body by the fear of changed | perception which its teacher, who is one with it, would bring. |
| Tx:19.32 | sin is precious. For the belief that bodies limit mind leads to a | perception of the world in which the proof of separation seems to be |
| Tx:19.34 | blessing on your sight. You will not see it long. For in the new | perception, the mind corrects it when it seems to be seen, and it |
| Tx:19.35 | sin will not prevail against a union Heaven has smiled upon. Your | perception was healed in the holy instant Heaven gave you. Forget |
| Tx:19.50 | of death and laying them respectfully before their lord and master. | Perception cannot obey two masters, each asking for messages of |
| Tx:19.51 | which guilt holds for fear is wholly absent from love's gentle | perception. What love would look upon is meaningless to fear and |
| Tx:19.61 | not see that this is the belief in death? Here is the focus of the | perception of Atonement as murder. Here is the source of the idea |
| Tx:19.67 | communion, where we are joined already, will be the focus of the new | perception that will bring light to all the world, contained in you. |
| Tx:19.72 | its existence. This, then, is the attraction of pain. Ruled by this | perception, the body becomes the servant of pain, seeking it |
| Tx:20.16 | in sin is an adjustment. And an adjustment is a change; a shift in | perception or a belief that what was so before has been made |
| Tx:20.16 | shift or change is undertaken. For this reduces it at once to mere | perception—a way of looking in which certainty is lost and doubt |
| Tx:20.18 | to you. Nor is there any difference between yourself and it in your | perception, which made them both. |
| Tx:20.21 | it and whispered, “What are you?” And He Who watches over all | perception answered. Take not the judgment of the world as answer to |
| Tx:21.1 | Projection makes | perception. The world you see is what you gave it, nothing more than |
| Tx:21.1 | to change the world, but will to change your mind about the world. | Perception is a result, not a cause. And that is why order of |
| Tx:21.24 | to make it fit the goal of madness. The goal of sin induces the | perception of a fearful world to justify its purpose. What you desire |
| Tx:21.33 | but strong in faith in his illusions about himself. For faith, | perception, and belief you made as means for losing certainty and |
| Tx:21.34 | He sees their value as a means for what He wills for you. You made | perception that you might choose among your brothers and seek for sin |
| Tx:21.34 | among your brothers and seek for sin with them. The Holy Spirit sees | perception as a means to teach you that the vision of a holy |
| Tx:21.40 | you. The faith and the belief you gave it belongs beyond. You gave | perception and belief and faith from mind to body. Let them now be |
| Tx:21.49 | Perception selects and makes the world you see. It literally picks it | |
| Tx:21.49 | raucous screams and senseless ravings to those who want to hear it. | Perception is a choice and not a fact. But on this choice depends far |
| Tx:21.49 | choose to see, depends entirely your whole belief in what you are. | Perception is a witness but to this and never to reality. Yet it can |
| Tx:21.56 | Faith and | perception and belief can be misplaced and serve the great deceiver's |

| Tx:22.1 | see it in the same place and time. Sin is a strictly individual | perception, seen in the other yet believed by each to be within |
| Tx:22.14 | Here is the first direct | perception that you have made. You made it through awareness older |
| Tx:22.14 | that you have made. You made it through awareness older than | perception and yet reborn in just an instant. For what is time to |
| Tx:22.32 | Everything which the body's eyes can see is a mistake, an error in | perception, a distorted fragment of the whole, without the meaning |
| Tx:22.33 | to look on error and not see past it. Theirs is indeed a strange | perception, for they can see only illusions, unable to look beyond |
| Tx:22.34 | unable to go beyond the form to meaning. Nothing so blinding as | perception of form. For sight of form means understanding has been |
| Tx:22.35 | it were. What cannot see beyond what is not there must be distorted | perception and must perceive illusions as the truth. Could it then |
| Tx:22.36 | can see. Let your awareness of your brother not be blocked by your | perception of his sins and of his body. What is there in him that you |

| Tx:24.69 | still is upside down until its purpose has been understood. | Perception does not seem to be a means. And it is this that makes it |
| Tx:24.69 | the whole extent to which it must depend on what you see it for. | Perception seems to teach you what you see. Yet it but witnesses to |
| Tx:24.72 | man perceives an alien will and wishes it were so. And thus does his | perception serve his wish by giving it appearances of truth. Yet can |
| Tx:24.72 | perception serve his wish by giving it appearances of truth. Yet can | perception serve another goal. It is not bound to specialness but by |
| Tx:24.72 | your choice. And it is given you to make a different choice and use | perception for a different purpose. And what you see will serve that |
| Tx:25.5 | the Christ in you except you look on holiness and see Him there? | Perception tells you, you are manifest in what you see. Behold the |
| Tx:25.6 | Perception is a choice of what you want yourself to be—the world | |
| Tx:25.6 | witness unto anything the purpose in your mind upholdeth not. | Perception is a part of what it is your purpose to behold, for means |
| Tx:25.23 | is there, and you believe it there because you want it there. | Perception has no other law than this. The rest but stems from this, |
| Tx:25.24 | God's laws do not obtain directly to a world | perception rules, for such a world could not have been created by the |
| Tx:25.24 | for such a world could not have been created by the Mind to which | perception has no meaning. Yet are His laws reflected everywhere. Not |
| Tx:25.25 | Perception rests on choosing; knowledge does not. Knowledge has but | |
| Tx:25.25 | illusions which it would make real. Not one but it upholds in its | perception; not one but can be fully justified. |
| Tx:25.26 | Maker Who can reconcile its goal with His Creator's purpose. In His | perception of the world, nothing is seen but justifies forgiveness |
| Tx:25.30 | And therefore it need not be there in yours. Sin is the fixed belief | perception cannot change. What has been damned is damned and damned |
| Tx:25.30 | forever, being forever unforgivable. If then it is forgiven, sin's | perception must have been wrong. And thus is change made possible. |
| Tx:25.46 | Such is the Holy Spirit's kind | perception of specialness—His use of what you made, to heal instead |
| Tx:25.54 | world you see to something else—a basis not insane on which a sane | perception can be based, another world perceived. And one in which |
| Tx:25.80 | unfair must be corrected because it is unfair. And every error is a | perception in which one at least is seen unfairly. Thus is justice |
| Tx:25.81 | makes punishment impossible and justice sure. The Holy Spirit's | perception leaves no ground for an attack. Only a loss could justify |
| Tx:26.3 | part, remaining incomplete to keep its own identity intact. In this | perception of yourself, the body's loss would be a sacrifice indeed. |
| Tx:26.11 | out so no one loses, is the problem gone, because it was an error in | perception which now has been corrected. One mistake is not more |
| Tx:26.20 | universe made true. This is because knowledge makes no attack upon | perception. They are brought together, and only one continues past |
| Tx:26.21 | It is the judgment of the truth upon illusion, of knowledge on | perception—it has no meaning and does not exist. This is not your |
| Tx:26.22 | Salvation stops just short of Heaven, for only | perception needs salvation. Heaven was never lost and so cannot be |
| Tx:26.23 | world is the area of choice made real, not in the outcome but in the | perception of alternatives for choice. That there is choice is an |
| Tx:26.43 | long ago. Look gently on each other and behold the world in which | perception of your hate has been transformed into a world of love. |
| Tx:26.48 | built on sin. The Son of God perceives what he would see, because | perception is a wish fulfilled. Perception changes, made to take the |
| Tx:26.48 | perceives what he would see, because perception is a wish fulfilled. | Perception changes, made to take the place of changeless knowledge. |
| Tx:26.54 | little space to him. This separating off is symbolized in your | perception by a body which is clearly separate and a thing apart. Yet |
| Tx:26.69 | and a little watchful of interests perceived as separate. From this | perception you cannot conceive of gaining what forgiveness offers |
| Tx:26.85 | Their Presence. They are known with clarity or not at all. Confused | perception will block knowledge. It is not a question of the size of |
| Tx:27.25 | Consider how this self | perception must extend, and do not overlook the fact that every |
| Tx:27.26 | outside yourself on one who cannot be a part of you while this | perception lasts. What is condemned can never be returned to its |
| Tx:28.2 | if you did not desire its effects? Remembering is as selective as | perception, being its past tense. It is perception of the past as if |
| Tx:28.2 | is as selective as perception, being its past tense. It is | perception of the past as if it were occurring now and still were |
| Tx:28.2 | if it were occurring now and still were there to see. Memory, like | perception, is a skill made up by you to take the place of what God |
| Tx:28.7 | a cause so ancient that it far exceeds the span of memory which your | perception sees. |
| Tx:30.84 | they have. Can this be meaning? Can confusion be what meaning means? | Perception cannot be in constant flux and make allowance for |
| Tx:30.85 | A common purpose is the only means whereby | perception can be stabilized and one interpretation given to the |
| Tx:30.86 | from this idea. And it is this idea of different goals which makes | perception shift and meaning change. In one united goal does this |
| Tx:31.57 | the self embraces all you look upon, and nothing is outside of this | perception. If you can be hurt by anything, you see a picture of your |
| Tx:31.58 | Each one will show the changes in your own relationships as your | perception of yourself is changed. There will be some confusion every |
| Tx:31.64 | and the good and must be passed that both may disappear, so that | perception finds no hiding place. How is this done? It is not done at |
| Tx:31.68 | kinds of change you could not recognize. Concepts are needed while | perception lasts, and changing concepts is salvation's task. For it |
| W1:I.3 | The purpose of these exercises is to train the mind to a different | perception of everything in the world. The workbook is divided into |
| W1:15.3 | at last. They will not persist, because they merely symbolize true | perception, and they are not related to knowledge. These exercises |
| W1:16.2 | concept than that of “idle thoughts.” What gives rise to the | perception of a whole world can hardly be called idle. Every thought |
| W1:17.1 | but you must learn that it is the way you think. If it were not so, | perception would have no cause and would itself be the cause of |

| W1:21.6 | person, believing that the anger is limited to this aspect. If your | perception of the person is suffering from this form of distortion, |
| W1:23.1 | you see. It is with your thoughts, then, that we must work if your | perception of the world is to be changed. |
| W1:24.1 | and no way of judging the result. What you do is determined by your | perception of the situation, and that perception is wrong. It is |
| W1:24.1 | you do is determined by your perception of the situation, and that | perception is wrong. It is inevitable, then, that you will not serve |

| W1:33.1 | Today's idea is an attempt to recognize that you can shift your | perception of the world in both its outer and inner aspects. A full |
| W1:34.1 | then extend outward. It is from your peace of mind that a peaceful | perception of the world arises. |
| W1:35.5 | emphasize what you consider to be the more negative aspects of your | perception of yourself. Toward the latter part of the exercise |
| W1:43.1 | Perception is not an attribute of God. His is the realm of knowledge. | |
| W1:43.1 | Yet He has created the Holy Spirit as the Mediator between | perception and knowledge. Without this link with God, perception |
| W1:43.1 | between perception and knowledge. Without this link with God, | perception would have replaced knowledge forever in your minds. With |
| W1:43.1 | replaced knowledge forever in your minds. With this link with God, | perception will become so changed and purified that it will lead to |
| W1:43.2 | In God you cannot see. | Perception has no function in God and does not exist. Yet in |
| W1:43.2 | not exist. Yet in salvation, which is the undoing of what never was, | perception has a mighty purpose. Made by the Son of God for an unholy |
| W1:43.2 | the means for the restoration of his holiness to his awareness. | Perception has no meaning. Yet does the Holy Spirit give it a meaning |
| W1:43.2 | does the Holy Spirit give it a meaning very close to God's. Healed | perception becomes the means by which the Son of God forgives his |
| W1:55.3 | give rise to this picture. My loving thoughts will save me from this | perception of the world and give me the peace God intended me to have. |
| W1:58.2 | [36] My holiness envelops everything I see. From my holiness does the | perception of the real world come. Having forgiven, I no longer see |
| W1:58.3 | [37] My holiness blesses the world. The | perception of my holiness does not bless me alone. Everyone and |
| W1:64.2 | learn to forgive yourself what you think of as your sins. In this | perception, the physical appearance of temptation becomes the |
| W1:66.13 | Today's idea is another giant stride in the | perception of the same as the same and the different as different. On |
| W1:68.6 | of some sort. This has left you alone in all the universe in your | perception of yourself. |
| W1:72.9 | on salvation. We will try to welcome it instead. Your upside-down | perception has been ruinous to your peace of mind. You have seen |
| W1:79.4 | a vast number of problems, each requiring a different answer. This | perception places you in a position in which your problem solving |
| W1:83.4 | My | perception of this does not change my function. This does not give me |
| W1:86.4 | God's plan for salvation will save me from my | perception of this. This is no exception in God's plan for my |
| W1:87.2 | on what it shows me. This day I will experience the peace of true | perception. |
| W1:88.7 | My | perception of this shows me I believe in laws which do not exist. I |
| W1:91.1 | repeating. It is a central idea in your new thought system and the | perception which it produces. The miracle is always there. Its |
| W1:108.3 | themselves. This is the light which heals because it brings single | perception, based upon one frame of reference from which one meaning |
| W1:121.12 | Look at this changed | perception for a while, and turn your mind to one you call a friend. |
| W1:126.2 | your own. You further think that they can sin without affecting your | perception of yourself, while you can judge their sin and yet remain |
| W1:130.1 | Perception is consistent. What you see reflects your thinking. And | |
| W1:130.2 | its weapon is—that which you fear to see you cannot see. Love and | perception thus go hand in hand, but fear obscures in darkness what |
| W1:130.10 | gratitude. Nor will you fail to see His thanks expressed in tangible | perception and in truth. You will not doubt what you will look upon. |
| W1:130.10 | truth. You will not doubt what you will look upon. For though it is | perception, it is not the kind of seeing that your eyes alone have |
| W1:130.11 | the real, the false or true is what you see, and only what you see. | Perception is consistent with your choice, and hell or Heaven comes |
| W1:138.2 | It is this strange | perception of the truth that makes the choice of Heaven seem to be |
| W1:157.8 | the Holy One, the Giver of the happy dreams of life, Translator of | perception into truth, the holy Guide to Heaven given you has dreamed |
| W1:166.8 | then proclaim your poverty in exile? He would make you laugh at this | perception of yourself. Where is self-pity then? And what becomes of |
| W1:181.2 | Perception has a focus. It is this which gives consistency to what | |
| W1:181.4 | These concerns are but defenses against present change of focus in | perception. Nothing more. |
| W1:181.9 | all we want to see, when this is all we seek for in the name of true | perception, are the eyes of Christ inevitably ours. And the love He |
| W1:184.2 | off all things from one another is the means by which the world's | perception is achieved. You see something where nothing is and see as |
| W1:184.3 | as separate awarenesses? You gave these names to them, establishing | perception as you wished to have perception be. The nameless things |
| W1:184.3 | these names to them, establishing perception as you wished to have | perception be. The nameless things were given names and thus reality |
| W1:184.5 | vision still remain a natural direction for the mind to channel its | perception. It is hard to teach the mind a thousand alien names and |
| W1:184.7 | starting point from which another kind of learning can begin, a new | perception can be gained, and all the arbitrary names the world |
| W1:187.1 | you would give. It is the second phase on which the world and true | perception differ. Having had and given, then the world asserts that |
| W1:188.2 | that is not but the shadow of the seen through inward vision. There | perception starts, and there it ends. It has no source but this. |
| W1:188.5 | universally. For what your inward vision looks upon is your | perception of the universe. |
| W1:191.5 | to Him Who pointed out the way to happiness that changed his whole | perception of the world. |
| W1:193.2 | erring sight and give him vision that will lead him back to where | perception ceases. God does not perceive at all. Yet it is He Who |
| W1:193.2 | does not perceive at all. Yet it is He Who gives the means by which | perception is made true and beautiful enough to let the light of |
| W1:193.11 | to perceive the lesson he should learn? Does pain seem real in the | perception? If it does, be sure the lesson is not learned. And there |
| W1:194.7 | certainty of care the world can never threaten. He is sure that his | perception may be faulty but will never lack correction. He is free |
| W1:194.8 | to gain thereby and every living creature not respond with healed | perception? Who entrusts himself to God has also placed the world |
| W1:198.2 | a prisoner. Forgive and you are freed. Such is the law that rules | perception. It is not a law that knowledge understands, for freedom |
| W1:200.8 | within the world perceived as different and leading from this fresh | perception to the gate of Heaven and the way beyond. Peace is the |
| W2:WS.4 | come to live within their branches. Earth is being born again in new | perception. Night has gone, and we have come together in the light. |
| W2:WIW.1 | The world is false | perception. It is born of error, and it has not left its source. It |
| W2:WIW.2 | could enter not and where His Son could be apart from Him. Here was | perception born, for knowledge could not cause such insane thoughts. |
| W2:WIW.4 | truth, it can be redirected. Sounds become the call of God. And all | perception can be given a new purpose by the One Whom God appointed |
| W2:WIW.5 | Let us not rest content until the world has joined our changed | perception. Let us not be satisfied until forgiveness has been made |
| W2:243.1 | grasp. I will not think I understand the whole from bits of my | perception, which are all that I can see. Today I recognize that this |
| W2:269.1 | me my mistakes and look beyond them. It is given me to find a new | perception through the Guide You gave to me and through His lessons |
| W2:269.1 | through the Guide You gave to me and through His lessons to surpass | perception and return to truth. I ask for the illusion which |
| W2:WIC.5 | As we behold His glory will we know we have no need of learning or | perception or of time, or anything except the holy Self, the Christ |
| W2:271.1 | the world and God's creation meet, and as they come together, all | perception disappears. His kindly sight redeems the world from death. |
| W2:WIHS.1 | and the truth. As He must bridge the gap between reality and dreams, | perception leads to knowledge through the grace that God has given |
| W2:WIRW.1 | The real world is a symbol like the rest of what | perception offers. Yet it stands for what is opposite to what you |
| W2:WIRW.4 | he is redeemed. The real world signifies the end of time, for its | perception makes time purposeless. |
| W2:WIRW.5 | for God to take His final step, and time has disappeared, taking | perception with it as it goes and leaving but the Truth to be Itself. |
| W2:300.1 | or even grasped. Yet this is also the idea that lets no false | perception keep us in its hold nor represent more than a passing |
| W2:304.1 | holy sights Christ looks upon unless it is His vision that I use. | Perception is a mirror, not a fact. And what I look on is my state of |
| W2:308.1 | aim. If I elect to reach past time to timelessness, I must change my | perception of what time is for. Time's purpose cannot be to keep the |
| W2:WILJ.1 | what is true has never changed. And this the judgment is in which | perception ends. At first you see a world which has accepted this as |
| W2:WILJ.1 | true, projected from a now corrected mind. And with this holy sight, | perception gives a silent blessing and then disappears, its goal |
| W2:312.1 | Perception follows judgment. Having judged, you therefore see what | |
| W2:313.1 | for He sees no sin in anything He looks upon. Now let His true | perception come to me that I may waken from the dream of guilt and |
| W2:314.1 | From new | perception of the world there comes a future very different from the |
| W2:334.1 | gone, even while they are woven out of thoughts that rest on false | perception. Let me not accept such meager gifts again today. God's |
| W2:335.1 | is a choice. I never see my brother as he is, for that is far beyond | perception. What I see in him is merely what I wish to see because it |
| W2:336.1 | means appointed for perception's ending. Knowledge is restored after | perception first is changed and then gives way entirely to what |
| W2:WIM.1 | it sees is false. It undoes error but does not attempt to go beyond | perception nor exceed the function of forgiveness. Thus it stays |
| W2:WIM.2 | because it fails entirely to understand its ways. A miracle inverts | perception which was upside-down before, and thus it ends the strange |
| W2:WIM.2 | and thus it ends the strange distortions that were manifest. Now is | perception open to the truth. Now is forgiveness seen as justified. |
| W2:WIM.3 | of Christ deliver them to all they look upon in mercy and in love. | Perception stands corrected in His sight, and what was meant to curse |
| W2:346.1 | Father, I wake today with miracles correcting my | perception of all things. And so begins the day I share with You as I |
| W2:351.1 | not a Son of God, alone and friendless in a fearful world. Yet this | perception is a choice I make and can relinquish. I can also see my |
| M:4.3 | foundation on which their ability to fulfill their function rests. | Perception is the result of learning. In fact, perception is |
| M:4.3 | their function rests. Perception is the result of learning. In fact, | perception is learning, because cause and effect are never separated. |
| M:8.1 | The belief in order of difficulties is the basis for the world's | perception. It rests on differences; on uneven background and |
| M:8.3 | through differences. Yet it is not the messages they bring on which | perception rests. Only the mind evaluates their messages, so only the |
| M:8.4 | sorting out and categorizing activities of the mind that errors in | perception enter. And it is here correction must be made. The mind |
| M:8.5 | the devils he sees carrying affect their credibility in his | perception? His Mind has categorized them as real, and so they are |
| M:10.3 | way. And one would have to be certain there is no distortion in his | perception, so that his judgment would be wholly fair to everyone on |
| M:10.4 | And He is wholly fair to everyone, for there is no distortion in His | perception. |
| M:12.1 | limitless, His Thoughts are joined with God's forever and ever. His | perception of Himself is based upon God's Judgment, not His own. Thus |
| M:17.3 | and pupil who have shared in one intent. Attack can enter only if | perception of separate goals has entered. And this must indeed have |
| M:19.3 | Here is the lens which, held before the body's eyes, distorts | perception and brings witness of the distorted world back to the mind |
| M:19.4 | have projected your injustice, attributing to God the lens of warped | perception through which you look. Now it belongs to Him and not to |
| M:19.5 | God's justice, and do not confuse His mercy with your own insanity. | Perception can make whatever picture the mind desires to see. |
| M:19.5 | all attack and condemnation becomes meaningless and indefensible. | Perception rests, the mind is still, and light returns again. Vision |
| M:21.3 | is impossible that the prayer of the heart remain unanswered in the | perception of the one who asks. If he asks for the impossible, if he |
| M:22.1 | possible in this world, because it is the source of a wholly unified | perception. Partial Atonement is a meaningless idea, just as special |
| M:22.4 | applied to all specific forms of sickness, both in the individual's | perception of himself and of all others as well. Nor is it at this |
| M:22.4 | shining in front of him, correcting all mistakes and healing all | perception. Healing is the result of the recognition by God's teacher |
| M:22.5 | only the unreal. Mistakes do not correct mistakes, and distorted | perception does not heal. Step back now, teacher of God. You have |
| M:27.2 | In this | perception of the universe as God created it, it would not be |

| Tx:6.91 | in God and His Kingdom is assailed by any doubts in your minds, His | perfect accomplishment is not apparent to you. This is why you must |
| Tx:6.95 | since it is already true and needs no protection. It is in the | perfect safety of God. Therefore inclusion is total and creation is |

| Tx:7.13 | seeing them as different [and] conflicting, because minds can be in | perfect accord. |
| Tx:7.16 | the same, and only the meaning matters. God's law of Creation in | perfect form does not involve the use of truth to convince His Sons |
| Tx:7.18 | What can the | perfect consistency of the Kingdom mean to the confused? It is |
| Tx:7.28 | if they perceive any of their brothers as anything other than their | perfect equals, the idea of competition has entered their minds. Do |
| Tx:7.29 | altar is perfectly clear in thought, because it is a reflection of | perfect Thought. It sees only brothers, because it sees only in its |
| Tx:7.30 | because nothing questionable enters their minds. This holds them in | perfect serenity, because this is what they share, knowing what they |
| Tx:7.50 | which can only be created as you were. The whole glory and | perfect joy that is the Kingdom lies in you to give. Do you not want |
| Tx:7.69 | God's, and nothing that opposes this means anything at all. Being a | perfect accomplishment, the Sonship can only accomplish perfectly, |
| Tx:7.81 | enables you to perceive any part of creation as wholly real, wholly | perfect, and wholly desirable. Wanting this only, you will have this |
| Tx:7.94 | impossible and extension inevitable. That is why there is | perfect peace in the Kingdom. Every Soul is fulfilling its function, |
| Tx:7.96 | is as boundless as God's. Like His, it extends forever and in | perfect peace. Its radiance is so intense that it creates in perfect |
| Tx:7.96 | and in perfect peace. Its radiance is so intense that it creates in | perfect joy, and only the whole can be born of its wholeness. |

| Tx:8.18 | This is perfect creation by the perfectly created in union with | Perfect Creator. The Father must give fatherhood to His Son, because |
| Tx:8.32 | freedom? Freedom cannot be learned by tyranny of any kind, and the | perfect equality of all God's Sons cannot be recognized through the |
| Tx:8.36 | because it is undivided. The undivided will of the Sonship is the | perfect creator, being wholly in the likeness of God, Whose Will it |
| Tx:8.39 | in transcending the ego is guaranteed by God, and I can share [my | perfect confidence in His promise, because I know He gave me] this |
| Tx:8.87 | The Bible enjoins you to be | perfect, to heal all errors, to take no thought of the body as |
| Tx:8.104 | what you are devoted to. Otherwise, you would not have been created | perfect. Reality is everything, and therefore you have everything |
| Tx:9.1 | right and good to point out errors and “correct” them. This makes | perfect sense to the ego, which is totally unaware of what errors are |
| Tx:9.13 | Many have tried to do this in my name, forgetting that my words make | perfect sense because they come from God. They are as sensible now as |
| Tx:9.37 | and with a mind like His. In your open mind are your creations, in | perfect communication born of perfect understanding. Could you but |
| Tx:9.37 | your open mind are your creations, in perfect communication born of | perfect understanding. Could you but accept one of them, you would |
| Tx:9.38 | will not return, but because delay of joy is needless. God wills you | perfect happiness now. Is it possible that this is not also your |
| Tx:9.81 | You could accept peace now for everyone you meet and offer them | perfect freedom from all illusions because you heard. But have no |
| Tx:9.83 | cannot be fearful. You have chosen to fear love because of its | perfect harmlessness, and because of this fear, you have been willing |
| Tx:9.83 | and because of this fear, you have been willing to give up your own | perfect helpfulness and your own perfect Help. |
| Tx:9.83 | been willing to give up your own perfect helpfulness and your own | perfect Help. |
| Tx:9.85 | Sickness and perfection are irreconcilable. If God created you | perfect, you are perfect. If you believe you can be sick, you have |
| Tx:9.85 | perfection are irreconcilable. If God created you perfect, you are | perfect. If you believe you can be sick, you have placed other gods |
| Tx:9.104 | are refusals to accept creation as it is. If God created His Son | perfect, that is how you must learn to see him to learn of his |
| Tx:10.2 | Make no mistake about this. It sounds insane when it is stated with | perfect honesty, but the ego never looks upon what it does with |
| Tx:10.2 | with perfect honesty, but the ego never looks upon what it does with | perfect honesty. Yet that is its insane premise, which is carefully |
| Tx:10.3 | of the ego's thought system bravely. Be willing to judge it with | perfect honesty. Open the dark cornerstone of terror on which it |
| Tx:10.16 | He wills you Himself. And you will yourself to Him because, in your | perfect understanding of Him, you know there is but one will. Yet |
| Tx:10.16 | attack any part of God and His Kingdom, your understanding is not | perfect, and what you will is therefore lost to you. |
| Tx:10.21 | spark and are willing to let it grow. Your willingness need not be | perfect, because His is. If you will merely offer Him a little place, |
| Tx:10.37 | Christ is the extension of the love and the loveliness of God, as | perfect as his Creator and at peace with Him. |
| Tx:10.38 | in the Son, for there is no condemnation in the Father. Sharing the | perfect love of the Father, the Son must share what belongs to Him, |
| Tx:11.21 | There is no fear in | perfect love. We will but be making perfect to you what is already |
| Tx:11.21 | There is no fear in perfect love. We will but be making | perfect to you what is already perfect in you. You do not fear the |
| Tx:11.21 | perfect love. We will but be making perfect to you what is already | perfect in you. You do not fear the unknown, but the known. You will |
| Tx:11.23 | that is not of God is gone. Yet you must reveal it to yourself in | perfect willingness, for otherwise His knowledge remains useless to |
| Tx:11.46 | trust your own love when you have attacked it. You cannot learn of | perfect love with a split mind because a split mind has made itself a |
| Tx:11.57 | for every Son of God who sleeps. In His sight the Son of God is | perfect, and He longs to share His vision with you. He will show you |
| Tx:11.58 | love for Him. And knowing this, He would give you what is yours. In | perfect peace He waits for you at His Father's altar, holding out the |
| Tx:11.60 | in it has always been. There the Redeemer and the redeemed join in | perfect love of God and of each other. Heaven is your home, and being |
| Tx:11.71 | place, you could have looked upon me and all your brothers in the | perfect safety of the mind which created us. For we are there in the |
| Tx:11.78 | Father's protection and cannot fear. His Father's love holds him in | perfect peace, and needing nothing, he asks for nothing. Yet he is |
| Tx:11.79 | it cannot be invisible in itself, for the Holy Spirit sees it with | perfect clarity. It is invisible to you because you are looking at |
| Tx:11.82 | upon him and sees nothing else in you. What is invisible to you is | perfect in His sight and encompasses all of it. He has remembered you |
| Tx:11.94 | God's Son. You have denied the condition of his Being, which is his | perfect blamelessness. Out of love he was created, and in love he |
| Tx:12.43 | darkest dreams, He sees God's guiltless Son within you, shining in | perfect radiance, which is undimmed by your dreams. And this you will |
| Tx:12.51 | refusing to accept the light that is offered you. For the light of | perfect vision is freely given as it is freely received and can be |
| Tx:12.65 | him without end or flaw. Disturbance of his peace can never be. In | perfect sanity he looks on love, for it is all about him and within |
| Tx:12.67 | to what you have not lost. Praise, then, the Father for the | perfect sanity of His most holy Son. |
| Tx:13.2 | is never complete. Even the perception of the Holy Spirit, as | perfect as perception can be, is without meaning in Heaven. |
| Tx:13.3 | Perfect perception, then, has many elements in common with knowledge, | |
| Tx:13.9 | to] your fatherhood in Heaven. The miracle which God created is | perfect, as are the miracles which you created in His name. They need |
| Tx:13.19 | Within you is the holy sign of | perfect faith your Father has in you. He does not value you as you |
| Tx:13.19 | knows not of differences. Can you see guilt where God knows there is | perfect innocence? You can deny His knowledge, but you cannot change |
| Tx:13.28 | love Him. Yet it is forever true. In shining peace within you is the | perfect purity in which you were created. Fear not to look upon the |
| Tx:13.29 | He would have you see. And in Christ's vision, He would show you the | perfect purity that is forever within God's Son. |
| Tx:13.38 | can give this peace, for nothing in this world is wholly shared. | Perfect perception can merely show you what is capable of being |
| Tx:13.38 | for you, allowing Him to demonstrate which must be true. He has | perfect faith in your final judgment because He knows that He will |
| Tx:13.71 | everyone, and teach him that whatever he may try to do to you, your | perfect freedom from the belief that you can be harmed shows him he |
| Tx:13.76 | value of His Son? Nothing can shake God's conviction of the | perfect purity of everything that He created, for it is wholly pure. |
| Tx:13.79 | loving mind wherein he was created and where his abode was fixed in | perfect peace forever. |
| Tx:13.90 | therefore, be anyone without His Holiness nor anyone unworthy of His | perfect Love. Fail not in your function of loving in a loveless place |
| Tx:14.2 | resembles it ever so faintly. You cannot even give a blessing in | perfect gentleness. Would you know of One Who gives forever and Who |
| Tx:14.6 | God would not have you bound by it. His plan for your awaking is as | perfect as yours is fallible. You know not what you do, but He Who |
| Tx:14.7 | share His shining innocence. Creation is the natural extension of | perfect purity. Your only calling here is to devote yourself with |
| Tx:14.11 | in what is for all in everyone you bring within its safety and its | perfect peace. |
| Tx:14.12 | who becomes a teacher of peace. For peace is the acknowledgment of | perfect purity from which no one is excluded. Within its holy circle |
| Tx:14.13 | power that He has given him. Believe not that you cannot teach His | perfect peace. Stand not outside but join with me within. Fail not |
| Tx:14.17 | The quiet light in which the Holy Spirit dwells within you is merely | perfect openness in which nothing is hidden and therefore nothing is |
| Tx:14.21 | what you would communicate to Him. He will interpret it to you with | perfect clarity, for He knows with Whom you are in perfect |
| Tx:14.21 | it to you with perfect clarity, for He knows with Whom you are in | perfect communication. |
| Tx:14.63 | kind, and if all those who meet or even think of you share in your | perfect peace, then you can be sure that you have learned God's |
| Tx:14.63 | which hurt and hinder you and everyone around you. The absence of | perfect peace means but one thing: you think you do not will for |
| Tx:14.72 | know. Think not you understand anything until you pass the test of | perfect peace, for peace and understanding go together and never can |
| Tx:15.14 | holiness. How long is an instant? As long as it takes to reestablish | perfect sanity, perfect peace, and perfect love for everyone, for |
| Tx:15.14 | is an instant? As long as it takes to reestablish perfect sanity, | perfect peace, and perfect love for everyone, for God, and for |
| Tx:15.14 | long as it takes to reestablish perfect sanity, perfect peace, and | perfect love for everyone, for God, and for yourself. As long as it |
| Tx:15.15 | that eternity may be remembered for you in that shining instant of | perfect release. Offer the miracle of the holy instant through the |
| Tx:15.20 | not yet happened to you. Yet it will, and you will recognize it with | perfect certainty. No gift of God is recognized in any other way. You |
| Tx:15.25 | to protect your magnitude in this world. To hold your magnitude in | perfect awareness in a world of littleness is a task the little |
| Tx:15.27 | can hold your magnitude, clean of all littleness, clearly and in | perfect safety in your minds, untouched by every little gift the |
| Tx:15.31 | a manger but into the altar to holiness, where holiness abides in | perfect peace. My Kingdom is not of this world because it is in you. |
| Tx:15.37 | for its release from littleness. God would have His host abide in | perfect freedom. Every allegiance to a plan of salvation that is |
| Tx:15.38 | Would you learn how | perfect and immaculate is the holy altar on which your Father has |
| Tx:15.40 | is this: The holy instant is a time in which you receive and give | perfect communication. This means, however, that it is a time in |
| Tx:15.41 | and keep them? The only way you could do that is to deny the | perfect communication that makes the holy instant what it is. You |
| Tx:15.42 | off because you would have it so. It is impossible to recognize | perfect communication while breaking communication holds value to |
| Tx:15.42 | holds value to you. Ask yourselves honestly, “Would I want to have | perfect communication, and am I wholly willing to let everything that |
| Tx:15.43 | if there were no need for Atonement. You will not be able to accept | perfect communication as long as you would hide it from yourself. For |
| Tx:15.48 | love where fear has entered cannot be depended on because it is not | perfect. In His function as Interpreter of what you have made, the |
| Tx:15.56 | commitments, yet they do not conflict with one another in any way. | Perfect faith in each one for its ability to satisfy you completely |
| Tx:15.56 | each one for its ability to satisfy you completely arises only from | perfect faith in yourself. And this you cannot have while guilt |
| Tx:15.57 | faith in yourself because you are unwilling to accept the fact that | perfect love is in you. And so you seek without for what you cannot |
| Tx:15.57 | so you seek without for what you cannot find without. I offer you my | perfect faith in you in place of all your doubt. But forget not that |
| Tx:15.57 | in place of all your doubt. But forget not that my faith must be as | perfect in all your brothers as it is in you, or it would be a |
| Tx:15.60 | For gain and loss are both accepted, and so no one is aware that | perfect love is in him. In the holy instant, you recognize the idea |
| Tx:15.82 | but an instant on this: God gave the Sonship to you to ensure your | perfect creation. This was His gift, for as He withheld Himself not |
| Tx:15.92 | It is in your power in time to delay the | perfect union of the Father and the Son. For in this world, the |
| Tx:15.102 | cradles God in the time of Christ, for the Host is as holy as the | Perfect Innocence which He protects and Whose power protects Him. |
| Tx:15.110 | in which a new year will be born from the time of Christ. I have | perfect faith in you to do all that you would accomplish. Nothing |
| Tx:16.14 | it, has not happened? Yet this is your position. You would have | perfect faith in the Holy Spirit and in the effects of His teaching |
| Tx:16.17 | Could you not look with greater charity on whom God loves with | perfect love? |
| Tx:16.27 | has no limits and no end, and there is nothing in Him that is not | perfect and eternal. All this is you, and nothing outside of this is |
| Tx:16.31 | unwilling now. You are too near, and you will cross the bridge in | perfect safety, translated quietly from war to peace. For the |
| Tx:16.38 | Him by your completion. Fear not to cross to the abode of peace and | perfect holiness. Only there is the completion of God and of His Son |
| Tx:16.62 | is left without and nothing taken in. If one such union were made in | perfect faith, the universe would enter into it. Yet the special |
| Tx:16.69 | completely. And your willingness need not be complete because His is | perfect. It is His task to atone for your unwillingness by His |
| Tx:16.69 | is perfect. It is His task to atone for your unwillingness by His | perfect faith, and it is His faith you share with Him there. Out of |
| Tx:16.69 | Out of your recognition of your unwillingness for your release, His | perfect willingness is given you. Call upon Him, for Heaven is at His |
| Tx:16.75 | has disappeared. The stillness and the peace of now enfolds you in | perfect gentleness. Everything is gone except the truth. |
| Tx:16.81 | Yours. What can there be in us that needs forgiveness when Yours is | perfect? The sleep of forgetfulness is only the unwillingness to |
| Tx:17.9 | All else is learned, but this is given, complete and wholly | perfect. No one but Him Who planned salvation could complete it thus. |
| Tx:17.21 | The Holy Spirit wills only to make His resolutions complete and | perfect, and so He seeks and finds the source of problems where it is |
| Tx:17.39 | is framed to be out of focus and not seen. The other is framed for | perfect clarity. The picture of darkness and of death grows less |
| Tx:17.42 | in it they are one. For here is only healing, already complete and | perfect. For here is God, and where He is, only the perfect and |
| Tx:17.42 | complete and perfect. For here is God, and where He is, only the | perfect and complete can be. |
| Tx:17.70 | how great the strength that goes with you. And you can use this in | perfect safety. Yet for all its might, so great it reaches past the |
| Tx:17.74 | has not forced any exclusion on it. It is a situation of | perfect peace simply because you have let it be what it is. |
| Tx:18.9 | in common in reality. Within yourselves you love each other with a | perfect love. Here is holy ground in which no substitution can enter |
| Tx:18.10 | not joined together in illusions but in the Thought so holy and so | perfect that illusions cannot remain to darken the holy place in |
| Tx:18.10 | Him in peace and gratitude and accept His gift as our most holy and | perfect reality, which we share in Him. |
| Tx:18.49 | Heaven is not a place nor a condition. It is merely an awareness of | perfect Oneness and the knowledge that there is nothing else; nothing |
| Tx:19.82 | have another dedication which would keep the body incorruptible and | perfect as long as it is useful for your holy purpose. The body no |
| Tx:19.87 | full communication with God and you. In its tiny hands, it holds in | perfect safety every miracle you will perform, held out to you. The |
| Tx:19.100 | fearful, and you do share in it until you look upon each other with | perfect faith and love and tenderness. Before complete forgiveness, |

| Tx:20.26 | and without the veil of fear upon it? Here are we one, looking with | perfect gentleness upon each other and on ourselves. Here all |
| Tx:20.27 | faith with me and know that it is justified. There is no fear in | perfect love because it knows no sin and it must look on others as on |

| Tx:22.34 | was its maker's goal but not to see? For this the body's eyes are | perfect means, but not for seeing. See how the body's eyes rest on |
| Tx:23.54 | something that you can win. Can it be anything that offers you a | perfect calmness and a sense of love so deep and quiet that no touch |
| Tx:24.31 | of the universe, the Source of life, of love and holiness, the | perfect Father of a perfect Son, for your illusions of your |

| Tx:24.31 | Him Whose Will it is you rest forever in the arms of peace in | perfect safety and without the heat and malice of one thought of |
| Tx:24.46 | these sights are yours to look upon with Him and share His joy. His | perfect lack of specialness He offers you that you may save all |

| Tx:24.53 | not one sin you see in him but keeps you both in hell. Yet will his | perfect sinlessness release you both, for holiness is quite |
| Tx:24.54 | place nor time where He is not. Within your brother's holiness, the | perfect frame for your salvation and the world's, is set the shining |
| Tx:24.68 | must have a Son. Yet must this Son have been created like Himself. A | perfect being, all-encompassing and all-encompassed, nothing to add |
| Tx:25.7 | who are His Son. Each aspect of Himself is framed in holiness and | perfect purity, in love celestial and so complete it wishes only that |
| Tx:25.17 | any way. What God creates is safe from all corruption, unchanged and | perfect in eternity. |

| Tx:25.20 | of Him joins in His praise, to share His joy. This brother is His | perfect gift to you. And He is glad and thankful when you thank His |
| Tx:25.20 | perfect gift to you. And He is glad and thankful when you thank His | perfect Son for being what he is. And all His thanks and gladness |

| Tx:25.77 | You have the right to all the universe—to | perfect peace, complete deliverance from all effects of sin, and to |

| Tx:26.15 | once again your special function. One is given you to see in him his | perfect sinlessness. And you will ask no sacrifice of him because you |
| Tx:26.17 | you should offer or receive less than He gave when He created you in | perfect love. |
| Tx:26.39 | Son entered an instant, to be instantly restored unto His Father's | perfect Love. And how can he be kept in chains long since removed and |
| Tx:26.56 | Salvation, | perfect and complete, asks but a little wish that what is true be |
| Tx:26.56 | rise within you to replace the world you see with Heaven, wholly | perfect and complete. What is forgiveness but a willingness that |
| Tx:27.3 | no reproach at all. And what was martyred to his guilt becomes the | perfect witness to his innocence. |
| Tx:27.11 | is Heaven free to be remembered. Here its peace can come and | perfect healing take the place of death. The body can become a sign |
| Tx:27.75 | he gave. And do not brush aside his many gifts because he is not | perfect in your dreams. |
| Tx:28.9 | from what It is. And you are Its effects, as changeless and as | perfect as Itself. Its memory does not lie in the past nor await the |
| Tx:28.28 | What waits in | perfect certainty beyond salvation is not our concern. For you have |
| Tx:28.45 | the broken pieces of Your holy Son. Your holiness, complete and | perfect, lies in every one of them. And they are joined because what |
| Tx:28.59 | his Father say, “You are beloved of Me and I of you forever. Be you | perfect as Myself, for you can never be apart from Me.” His Son |
| Tx:29.21 | made incomplete by your perfection? Or are you the proof that He is | perfect and complete? Deny Him not His witness in the dream His Son |
| Tx:29.34 | but the shining glory of His gift to you. Behold His Son, His | perfect gift in whom his Father shines forever and to whom is all |
| Tx:29.57 | to all living things, give way to chaos, and the Son of God, as | perfect, sinless and as loving as his Father, come to hate a little |
| Tx:29.61 | not a dream. A dream of judgment came into the mind that God created | perfect as Himself. And in that dream was Heaven changed to hell, and |
| Tx:30.22 | coerced but merely hope to get a thing you want. And you can say in | perfect honesty, |
| Tx:30.34 | but ensured that you would never lose your will when He gave you His | perfect answer. Hear it now that you may be reminded of His love and |
| Tx:30.45 | time it was not there; no instant when its light grew dimmer or less | perfect ever was. |
| Tx:30.46 | sky which holds it safe, forever lifted up, and anchored sure. Its | perfect purity does not depend on whether it is seen on earth or not. |
| Tx:30.46 | seen on earth or not. The sky embraces it and softly holds it in its | perfect place, which is as far from earth as earth from Heaven. It is |
| Tx:30.47 | no sound of battle comes remotely near, it rests in certainty and | perfect peace. Here is your one reality kept safe, completely unaware |
| Tx:30.47 | of all the world that worships idols and that knows not God. In | perfect sureness of its changelessness and of its rest in its eternal |
| Tx:30.59 | he will go beyond forgiveness, and he but remains until it is made | perfect in himself. He has no wish for anything but this. And fear |
| Tx:30.60 | The final step is God's because it is but God Who could create a | perfect Son and share His Fatherhood with him. No one outside of |
| Tx:30.64 | hand you hold! Within your hand is everything you need to walk with | perfect confidence away from fear forever and to go straight on and |
| Tx:30.78 | God's Son is | perfect, or he cannot be God's Son. Nor will you know him if you |
| Tx:30.79 | I thank you, Father, for your | perfect Son, and in his glory will I see my own. |
| Tx:30.90 | The happy dream about him takes the form of the appearance of his | perfect health, his perfect freedom from all forms of lack, and |

| Tx:31.9 | if he whom He created innocent could be a slave to guilt. God's | perfect Son remembers his creation. But in guilt he has forgotten |
| Tx:31.96 | with fixed determination toward the light that shines beyond in | perfect constancy. Give me my own, for they belong to You. And can |

| W1:14.3 | will go far beyond it. Our direction is toward perfect safety and | perfect peace. |
| W1:41.2 | and tragic forms it may take. Deep within you is everything that is | perfect, ready to radiate through you and out into the whole world. |
| W1:41.3 | You can never be deprived of your | perfect holiness because its Source goes with you wherever you go. |

| W1:50.2 | high above all the perceived dangers of this world into a climate of | perfect peace and safety. It will transport you into a state of mind |
| W1:52.2 | It is impossible that it could upset me. Reality brings only | perfect peace. When I am upset, it is always because I have replaced |

| W1:59.2 | always goes with me? How can I be doubtful and unsure of myself when | perfect certainty abides in Him? How can I be disturbed by anything |
| W1:59.2 | me through Him? Let me not cherish illusions about myself. I am | perfect because God goes with me wherever I go. |
| W1:61.4 | want to think about this idea as often as possible today. It is the | perfect answer to all illusions and therefore to all temptation. It |
| W1:67.3 | me kind. Helpfulness created me helpful. Perfection created me | perfect. |
| W1:69.6 | are trying to do for yourself and the world, try to settle down in | perfect stillness, remembering only how much you want to reach the |
| W1:73.10 | It is the one purpose here on which you and your Father are in | perfect accord. |
| W1:77.10 | Remember, too, not to be satisfied with less than the | perfect answer. Be quick to tell yourself, should you be tempted: |
| W1:88.5 | [76] I am under no laws but God's. Here is the | perfect statement of my freedom. I am under no laws but God's. I am |
| W1:95.1 | yourself and one with Him. Yours is the unity of all creation. Your | perfect unity makes change in you impossible. You do not accept this |
| W1:95.3 | today to be aware of only what can hear and see and what makes | perfect sense. We will again direct our exercises towards reaching |
| W1:95.17 | to teach the world the truth about itself. You are One Self, in | perfect harmony with all there is and all that there will be. You are |
| W1:98.3 | because they know their function will be filled completely in the | perfect time and place. They took the stand which we will take today |
| W1:98.7 | each repetition of today's idea a total dedication, made in faith as | perfect and as sure as His in you. |
| W1:100.2 | God's Will for you is | perfect happiness. Why should you choose to go against His Will? The |
| W1:100.4 | joy heals sorrow and despair. They are the proof that God wills | perfect happiness for all who will accept their Father's gifts as |
| W1:101.6 | because it is the basis for today's idea. God's Will for you is | perfect happiness because there is no sin, and suffering is |
| W1:101.8 | God's Will for me is | perfect happiness. There is no sin; it has no consequence. |
| W1:101.11 | God's Will for me is | perfect happiness. This is the truth because there is no sin. |
| W1:107.5 | as it always was, to be depended on in every need and trusted with a | perfect trust in all the seeming difficulties and the doubts that the |

| W1:113.3 | One Self, Whose knowledge still remains Within my mind, I see God's | perfect plan For my salvation perfectly fulfilled. |
| W1:116.2 | [101] God's Will for me is | perfect happiness. God's Will is perfect happiness for me. And I can |

| W1:121.14 | dream that I am mortal, fallible, and full of sin and know I am the | perfect Son of God. |
| W1:122.1 | that never can be hurt, a deep, abiding comfort, and a rest so | perfect it can never be upset? |
| W1:122.4 | other than the answer that will answer everything? Here is the | perfect answer, given to imperfect questions, meaningless requests, |
| W1:123.8 | holds you in His Mind, how deep and limitless His care for you, how | perfect is His gratitude to you. Remember hourly to think of Him and |
| W1:131.6 | remains in hell, for no one can abandon his Creator nor affect His | perfect, timeless, and unchanging Love. You will find Heaven. |
| W1:136.13 | sighs a little when you throw away its gifts, and yet it knows with | perfect certainty that what God wills for you must be received. |
| W1:R4.11 | no more than this to give us happiness and rest and endless quiet, | perfect certainty, and all our Father wills that we receive as the |
| W1:151.8 | doubt Himself. The Voice of God can only honor Him, rejoicing in His | perfect, everlasting sinlessness. Whom He has judged can only laugh |
| W1:151.14 | the threads of fantasy are gone, and what remains is unified into a | perfect thought that offers its perfection everywhere. |
| W1:152.2 | grief of joy? Can fear and sickness enter in a mind where love and | perfect holiness abide? Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the |
| W1:152.9 | changelessness, and its eternal wholeness—all-encompassing, God's | perfect gift to His beloved Son. |
| W1:152.11 | And in humility the radiance of God's Son, his gentleness, his | perfect sinlessness, his Father's Love, his right to Heaven and |
| W1:156.9 | I walk with God in | perfect holiness. I light the world, I light my mind and all the |
| W1:157.9 | now, serenely unaware of everything except His shining face and | perfect Love. The vision of His face will stay with you, but there |
| W1:159.3 | Heaven, for it sees a world so like to Heaven that what God created | perfect can be mirrored there. The darkened glass the world presents |
| W1:159.6 | single gift—the treasure house to which you can appeal with | perfect certainty for everything that can contribute to your |
| W1:160.10 | He fails to give you to remember that your home may be complete and | perfect as it was established. He has not forgotten you. But you will |
| W1:161.4 | thoughts make clear the meaning of creation? Do these words bring | perfect clarity with them to you? What can they seem to be but empty |
| W1:161.9 | in one whom Heaven cherishes, the angels love, and God created | perfect. This is his reality. And in Christ's vision is his |
| W1:161.14 | Son of God. I would behold you with the eyes of Christ, and see my | perfect sinlessness in you. |
| W1:162.5 | We honor you today. Yours is the right to | perfect holiness you now accept. With this acceptance is salvation |
| W1:162.5 | holiness like this has blessed the world? Who could despair when | perfect joy is yours, available to all as remedy for grief and |
| W1:163.4 | than God's Will for life, the endlessness of love and Heaven's | perfect, changeless constancy. Here is the Will of Father and of Son |
| W1:164.5 | to Him Who judges true. And in His judgment will a world unfold in | perfect innocence before your eyes. Now will you see it with the eyes |
| W1:165.1 | lies beyond? What but your thoughts of misery and death obscure the | perfect happiness and the Eternal Life your Father wills for you? And |
| W1:167.2 | It is the alarm to which you give response of any kind that is not | perfect joy. All sorrow, loss, anxiety, and suffering and pain, even |
| W1:167.12 | comes to us, remaining always in the holy minds which He created | perfect. As we were, so are we now and will forever be. A sleeping |

| W2:253.2 | one with You. My Self, Which rules the universe, is but Your will in | perfect union with my own, which can but offer glad assent to Yours |
| W2:281.1 | Father, Your Son is | perfect. When he thinks that he is hurt in any way, it is because he |
| W2:299.2 | but cannot put out its radiance nor dim its light. It stands forever | perfect and untouched. In it are all things healed, for they remain |
| W2:337.1 | My sinlessness ensures me | perfect peace, eternal safety, everlasting love, freedom forever from |

| W2:348.1 | be afraid when Your eternal promise goes with me? Surrounding me is | perfect sinlessness. What can I fear when You created me in holiness |
| W2:348.1 | sinlessness. What can I fear when You created me in holiness as | perfect as Your own? |
| W2:360.1 | we created, and in holiness do we remain. Your Son is like to You in | perfect sinlessness, and with this thought we gladly say “Amen.” |

| M:I.5 | perfect or they would not be here. Yet it is their mission to become | perfect here, and so they teach perfection over and over in many, |

| Tx:7.32 | laws of God, Whose laws are true. Because they are true, they are | perfectly dependable and therefore universal in application. The real |

| Tx:7.69 | all. Being a perfect accomplishment, the Sonship can only accomplish | perfectly, extending the joy in which it was created and identifying |
| Tx:7.104 | is confusion, this is hardly surprising.] The Holy Spirit is | perfectly trustworthy, as you are. God Himself trusts you, and |
| Tx:8.16 | created [by unlimited Will in order] to teach. Knowing His function | perfectly, He wills to fulfill it perfectly, because that is His joy |
| Tx:8.16 | to teach. Knowing His function perfectly, He wills to fulfill it | perfectly, because that is His joy and yours. |

| Tx:8.24 | Him. Giving of your self is the function He gave you. Fulfilling it | perfectly will teach you what you have of Him, and this will teach |
| Tx:8.27 | completely by any part of the Sonship. When this was done, it was | perfectly accomplished by all. How else could it be perfectly |
| Tx:8.27 | was done, it was perfectly accomplished by all. How else could it be | perfectly accomplished? My mission was simply to unite the will of |
| Tx:8.58 | you are has willed your power and glory for you, with which you can | perfectly accomplish His holy will for you when you so will it |
| Tx:8.74 | that judgment is the function of the Holy Spirit and one which He is | perfectly equipped to fulfill. The ego as a judge gives anything but |
| Tx:8.76 | prescriptions for avoiding catastrophic outcomes. The Holy Spirit, | perfectly aware of the same data, does not bother to analyze them at |
| Tx:8.85 | to induce it. The ego wants only what it hates. To the ego this is | perfectly sensible. Believing in the power of attack, the ego wants |
| Tx:8.117 | that you can bargain with God. God's laws are always fair and | perfectly consistent. By giving you receive. But to receive is to |
| Tx:9.14 | because forgiveness is His function, and He knows how to fulfill it | perfectly. That is what we meant when we once said that miracles are |
| Tx:9.19 | children, reality is here. It belongs to you and me and God and is | perfectly satisfying to all of us. Only this awareness heals, because |

| Tx:9.28 | his patient. The Holy Spirit is the only therapist. He makes healing | perfectly clear in any situation in which he is the Guide. The human |
| Tx:9.40 | It is | perfectly obvious that if the Holy Spirit looks with love on all He |
| Tx:9.48 | of the grandeur of God the meaninglessness of the ego becomes | perfectly apparent. Though it does not understand this, the ego |
| Tx:9.64 | they are part of you. Everything that was created is therefore | perfectly safe, because the laws of God protect it by His Love. Any |
| Tx:9.65 | does not exist. You are at home in God, dreaming of exile but | perfectly capable of awakening to reality. Is it your will to do so? |
| Tx:9.73 | what it must be. Yet the logical outcome of your decision is | perfectly clear if you will look at it. By deciding against your |
| Tx:9.84 | is the belief that you can choose which god is real. Although it is | perfectly clear that this has nothing to do with reality, it is |

| Tx:10.46 | of its goal. It is much more vigilant than you are because it is | perfectly certain of its purpose. You are confused because you do not |
| Tx:10.60 | and what you perceive is your interpretation. This course is | perfectly clear. You do not see it clearly because you are |
| Tx:11.4 | fully apparent to you, but this by no means signifies that it is not | perfectly clear. If you maintain that an appeal for help is something |
| Tx:11.24 | it is given you to help them since you are among them. Consider how | perfectly your lesson would be learned if you were unwilling to share |
| Tx:11.54 | strength because He perceives nothing but your Soul as you. He is | perfectly aware that you do not know yourselves and perfectly aware |
| Tx:11.54 | as you. He is perfectly aware that you do not know yourselves and | perfectly aware of how to teach you what you are. Because He loves |
| Tx:13.34 | God loves you. Could I, then, lack faith in you and love Him | perfectly? |
| Tx:13.37 | In Heaven is everything God valued and nothing else. Heaven is | perfectly unambiguous. Everything is clear and bright and calls forth |

| Tx:14.19 | together, the truth of one must make the falsity of its opposite | perfectly clear. Keep not guilt and guiltlessness apart, for your |
| Tx:14.56 | them. God has no secret communications, for everything of Him is | perfectly open and freely accessible to all, being for all. Nothing |
| Tx:15.1 | means to have no cares, no worries, no anxieties, but merely to be | perfectly calm and quiet all the time? Yet that is what time is for— |
| Tx:15.38 | and gladly give over every plan but His. For there lies peace, | perfectly clear because you have been willing to meet its conditions. |
| Tx:15.63 | else together, the language of communication, which you know | perfectly, you will not remember. |
| Tx:16.12 | recognition of the part as whole and of the whole in every part is | perfectly natural. For it is the way God thinks, and what is natural |
| Tx:16.24 | and not to see the real cause and effect relationship that is | perfectly apparent. Yet within you is everything you taught. What can |
| Tx:17.1 | waking is the full release from them, for only then does it become | perfectly apparent that they had no effect on reality at all and did |
| Tx:17.39 | be combined, accept this and be glad: these pictures are each framed | perfectly for what they represent. One is framed to be out of focus |
| Tx:17.69 | as faith to truth. If you lack faith in anyone to fulfill, and | perfectly, his part in any situation dedicated in advance to truth, |
| Tx:20.14 | him. Now are the lilies of his innocence untouched by guilt and | perfectly protected from the cold chill of fear and withering blight |
| Tx:20.34 | of God, forgetting all the rest and yearning only to have His laws | perfectly fulfilled in them and all their brothers. Think you when |
| Tx:20.60 | if they are merely given you? They guarantee the goal, and they are | perfectly in line with it. Before we look at them a little closer, |
| Tx:20.61 | brother as sinless and yet to look upon him as a body. Is this not | perfectly consistent with the goal of holiness? For holiness is |
| Tx:20.72 | For it will meet His purpose, seen in unadjusted form and suited | perfectly to meet it. Destructiveness becomes benign, and sin is |
| Tx:21.45 | This part has seen your brother and recognized him | perfectly since time began. And it desired nothing but to join with |
| Tx:21.45 | that this is madness. For this your reason tells you, and it follows | perfectly from what you have already learned. |
| Tx:21.51 | could they do so. But minds cannot be separate. This other Self is | perfectly aware of this. And thus It recognizes that miracles do not |
| Tx:23.10 | triumph, and attack of any kind are all unknown. He loves you | perfectly, completely, and eternally. The Son of God at war with his |
| Tx:24.28 | and hurls it into chaos. Truth is not frail. Illusions leave it | perfectly unmoved [and undisturbed]. But specialness is not the truth |
| Tx:25.45 | fill, no place where they are needed, and no aim which only they can | perfectly fulfill. |
| Tx:25.49 | Take it gently then from one another's hand, and let salvation be | perfectly fulfilled in both of you. Do this one thing, that |
| Tx:26.17 | opens wide the door beyond which is the memory of His love kept | perfectly intact and undefiled. And all you need to do is but to wish |
| Tx:26.39 | you only what is now.] A dreadful instant in a distant past, now | perfectly corrected, is of no concern nor value. Let the dead and |
| Tx:27.49 | world requires that it may be healed. It needs one lesson which has | perfectly been learned. And then when you forget it will the world |
| Tx:28.9 | be effects. The miracle reminds you of a Cause forever present, | perfectly untouched by time and interference—never changed from |
| Tx:29.22 | let yourself be wakened. You can overlook your brother's dreams. So | perfectly can you forgive him his illusions, he becomes your savior |
| Tx:30.44 | there, but you were unaware of it. The Thought God holds of you is | perfectly unchanged by your forgetting. It will always be exactly as |
| Tx:30.60 | of God knows everything his Father understands and understands it | perfectly with Him. |
| Tx:30.61 | this is God's own purpose—only His, and yet completely shared and | perfectly fulfilled. The real world is a state in which the mind has |
| Tx:31.36 | in which you see the purpose of the lesson shining clear, and | perfectly within your learning grasp. |
| Tx:31.97 | hide the face of Christ from anyone. Thy Will is done, complete and | perfectly, and all creation recognizes You and knows You as the only |
| W1:3.2 | understand about them. It is therefore essential that you keep a | perfectly open mind, unhampered by judgment, in selecting the things |
| W1:27.7 | from then on. If only once during the day you feel that you were | perfectly sincere while you were repeating today's idea, you can be |
| W1:29.3 | holiness that lights up the world, you will understand today's idea | perfectly. And you will not understand how you could ever have found |
| W1:68.10 | no grievances. When I let all my grievances go, I will know I am | perfectly safe. |
| W1:81.5 | the light in me. And in this light will my function stand clear and | perfectly unambiguous before my sight. My acceptance does not depend |
| W1:88.5 | of my belief in them. They have no real effect on me at all. I am | perfectly free of the effects of all laws save God's. And His are the |
| W1:113.3 | remains Within my mind, I see God's perfect plan For my salvation | perfectly fulfilled. |

| W1:R5.6 | This Self alone knows love. This Self alone is | perfectly consistent in Its thoughts, knows Its Creator, understands |
| W1:183.10 | in its salvation and your own as well, and both can be accomplished | perfectly. |

| W1:25.6 | periods, each of two minutes duration, are required. Each practice | period should begin with a slow repetition of the idea for today |
| W1:26.6 | The practice | period should begin with repeating the idea for today, then closing |
| W1:26.6 | subject. You will not be able to use very many for any one practice | period, because a longer time than usual should be spent with each |
| W1:26.15 | Conclude each practice | period by repeating today's idea once more. |
| W1:35.5 | In the earlier part of the mind searching | period, you will probably emphasize what you consider to be the more |
| W1:35.5 | your perception of yourself. Toward the latter part of the exercise | period, however, more self-inflating descriptive terms may well cross |
| W1:37.8 | You may continue the practice | period with your eyes closed; you may open your eyes again and apply |
| W1:37.8 | of these two phases of application which you prefer. The practice | period should conclude with a repetition of the idea with your eyes |
| W1:39.12 | End each practice | period by repeating the idea in its original form once more, and |
| W1:40.2 | closing your eyes would not be appropriate. Do not miss a practice | period because of this. You can practice quite well under almost any |
| W1:40.3 | with being a Son of God, applying them to yourself. One practice | period might, for example, consist of the following: |
| W1:40.7 | If only a brief | period is available, merely telling yourself that you are blessed as |
| W1:41.5 | There will be only one long practice | period today. In the morning, as soon as you get up if possible, sit |
| W1:41.5 | five minutes with your eyes closed. At the beginning of the practice | period, repeat today's idea very slowly. Then make no effort to think |
| W1:42.4 | Begin the practice | period by repeating the idea for today slowly with eyes open, looking |
| W1:42.8 | come. If you find this difficult, it is better to spend the practice | period alternating between slow repetitions of the idea with eyes |
| W1:43.7 | Although this part of the exercise | period should be relatively short, be sure that you select the |
| W1:43.8 | For the second and longer phase of the exercise | period, close your eyes, repeat today's idea again, and then let |
| W1:43.11 | and then try the second phase again. Do not allow any protracted | period to occur in which you become preoccupied with irrelevant |
| W1:44.7 | Begin the practice | period by repeating today's idea with your eyes open and close them |
| W1:45.6 | to yourself, closing your eyes as you do so. Spend a fairly short | period in thinking a few relevant thoughts of your own, keeping the |

| W1:65.2 | to follow, set aside ten to 15 minutes for a more sustained practice | period in which you try to understand and accept what today's idea |
| W1:65.5 | For this longer practice | period, begin by reviewing the idea for today. Then close your eyes, |
| W1:65.11 | the idea for today once more and devote the rest of the practice | period to trying to focus on its importance to you, the relief its |
| W1:66.4 | Our longer practice | period today has as its purpose your acceptance of the fact that not |
| W1:66.5 | Begin the ten- to fifteen-minute practice | period by reviewing these thoughts: |
| W1:66.11 | Think about this during the longer practice | period today. Think also about the many forms which the illusion of |
| W1:67.2 | if only for a moment, that it is the truth. In the longer practice | period, we will think about your reality and its wholly unchanged and |
| W1:68.6 | Begin today's extended practice | period by searching your mind for those against whom you hold what |
| W1:68.9 | Spend the remainder of the practice | period trying to think of yourself as completely at peace with |
| W1:68.9 | that nothing can harm you in any way. At the end of the practice | period tell yourself: |
| W1:69.2 | light in you. Before we undertake this in our more extended practice | period, let us devote several minutes in thinking about what we are |
| W1:69.3 | Let us begin our longer practice | period today with the full realization of all this and real |

| W1:76.8 | We will begin the longer practice | period today with a short review of the different kinds of “laws” we |
| W1:76.12 | Then we will tell ourselves as a dedication with which the practice | period concludes: |
| W1:R2.1 | part of the day to the other. We will have one longer exercise | period and frequent shorter ones in which we practice each of them. |
| W1:R2.2 | your mind wandering, but try to spend the major part of the practice | period listening quietly but attentively. |
| W1:91.12 | In the second phase of the exercise | period, try to experience these truths about yourself. Concentrate |
| W1:91.13 | Relax for the rest of the practice | period, confident that your efforts, however meager, are fully |

| W1:93.10 | put away your foolish self-images and spend the rest of the practice | period in trying to experience what God has given you in place of |
| W1:97.11 | Offer each practice | period today gladly to Him. And He will speak to you, reminding you |
| W1:98.11 | have on earth as well as Heaven. He will be with you each practice | period you share with Him, exchanging every instant of the time you |
| W1:R3.2 | Learning will not be hampered when you miss a practice | period because it is impossible at the appointed time. Nor is it |
| W1:R3.3 | But learning will be hampered when you skip a practice | period because you are unwilling to devote the time to it which you |
| W1:124.8 | that you are one with God. This is our first attempt at an extended | period for which we give no rules nor special words to guide your |
| W1:R4.6 | the silver of the moon on it by night. So do we start each practice | period in this review with readying our minds to understand the |
| W1:R5.14 | we start each day of our review. With this we start and end each | period of practice time. And with this thought we sleep, to waken |
| W1:199.5 | practice it today and every day. Make it a part of every practice | period you take. There is no thought that will not gain thereby in |
| W1:R6.11 | us how to go, and trusting Him completely for the way each practice | period can best become a loving gift of freedom to the world. |
| M:4.5 | First, they must go through what might be called “a | period of undoing.” This need not be painful, but it usually is so |
| M:4.7 | is rarely if ever begun until the second is complete. Therefore, the | period of overlap is apt to be one in which the teacher of God feels |
| M:4.8 | is the obvious! And how easy to do! The teacher of God needs this | period of respite. He has not yet come as far as he thinks. Yet when |
| M:16.5 | this time earlier, at least be sure that you do not forget a brief | period—not more than a moment will do—in which you close your |

| Tx:18.66 | is hated and despised.] Nor is a lifetime of contemplation and long | periods of meditation aimed at detachment from the body necessary. |
| W1:4.1 | exercises do not begin with the idea for the day. In these practice | periods, begin with noting the thoughts that are crossing your mind |
| W1:5.4 | But again, this should not be substituted for practice | periods in which you first search your mind for “sources” of upset in |
| W1:6.3 | the day for that purpose. However, the three or four practice | periods which are required should be preceded by a minute or so of |
| W1:9.3 | These exercises, for which three or four practice | periods are sufficient, involve looking about you and applying the |
| W1:10.1 | the thoughts of which you are aware or become aware in the practice | periods. The reason the idea is applicable to all of them is that |
| W1:10.8 | thought that distresses you at any time. In addition, five practice | periods are recommended, each involving no more than a minute or so |
| W1:11.2 | The practice | periods for today's idea are to be undertaken somewhat differently |
| W1:11.4 | Three practice | periods today will probably be sufficient. However, if there is |
| W1:12.9 | enough for practicing the idea for today. Nor should the practice | periods exceed a minute. You may find even this too long. Terminate |
| W1:13.8 | and try not even to think of it except during the exercise | periods. That will suffice at present. |
| W1:14.2 | be short, a minute at most. Do not have more than three practice | periods with today's idea unless you find them comfortable. If you |
| W1:14.7 | has no meaning. In recognition of this fact, conclude the practice | periods by repeating today's idea: |
| W1:14.9 | anything that disturbs you during the day, aside from the practice | periods. Be very specific in applying it. Say: |
| W1:15.7 | as random as possible. Less than a minute will do for the practice | periods, if you begin to feel uneasy. Do not have more than three |
| W1:15.7 | if you begin to feel uneasy. Do not have more than three application | periods for today's idea unless you feel completely comfortable with |
| W1:16.5 | In the practice | periods, first repeat the idea, and then as each one crosses your |
| W1:16.9 | Four or five practice | periods are recommended if you find them relatively effortless. If |
| W1:17.9 | Three or four specific practice | periods are recommended and no less than three are required for |
| W1:18.2 | emphasize this aspect of your perception. The three or four practice | periods which are recommended should be done as follows: |
| W1:19.5 | forget, however, that random selection of subjects for all practice | periods remains essential throughout. Lack of order in this |
| W1:19.6 | the “as needed” application of today's idea, at least three practice | periods are required, shortening the length of time involved if |
| W1:20.1 | We have been quite casual about our practice | periods thus far. There has been virtually no attempt to direct the |
| W1:21.1 | of the preceding one. This time, however, specific mind searching | periods are necessary in addition to applying the idea to particular |
| W1:21.1 | the idea to particular situations as they arise. Five practice | periods are urged, allowing a full minute for each. |
| W1:21.2 | In the practice | periods, begin by repeating the idea to yourself. Then close your |
| W1:21.3 | not to let the “little” thoughts of anger escape you in the practice | periods. Remember that you do not really recognize what arouses anger |
| W1:23.6 | Besides using it throughout the day as the need arises, five practice | periods are required in applying today's idea. As you look about you, |
| W1:23.9 | In the practice | periods, be sure to include both your thoughts of attacking and of |
| W1:23.9 | at this time only to treat them as the same in today's practice | periods. We are still at the stage of identifying the cause of the |
| W1:24.3 | honestly and carefully considered in each of the five practice | periods which should be undertaken today, will be more helpful than a |
| W1:24.3 | number. Two minutes are suggested for each of the mind searching | periods which the exercises involve. |
| W1:24.4 | The practice | periods begin with repeating today's idea, followed by searching the |
| W1:25.6 | Six practice | periods, each of two minutes duration, are required. Each practice |
| W1:26.5 | Six practice | periods are required in applying today's idea. A full two minutes |
| W1:28.1 | specific application to the idea for yesterday. In these practice | periods, you will be making a series of definite commitments. The |
| W1:28.6 | this same request of each subject which you use in the practice | periods. And you are making a commitment to each of them to let their |
| W1:28.7 | We will have six two minute practice | periods today in which the idea for the day is stated first and then |
| W1:29.4 | Our six two-minute practice | periods for today should follow a now familiar pattern: begin with |
| W1:29.7 | In addition to the assigned practice | periods, repeat the idea for today at least once an hour, looking |
| W1:30.5 | become more accustomed to this idea as well, devote several practice | periods to applying today's idea with your eyes closed, using |
| W1:31.2 | Two longer | periods of practice with the idea for today are needed, one in the |
| W1:32.2 | the same. However, since you see them as different, the practice | periods for today will again include two phases, one involving the |
| W1:32.3 | Again we will begin the practice | periods for the morning and evening by repeating the idea for today |
| W1:32.4 | For the two longer practice | periods, three to five minutes are recommended, with not less than |
| W1:33.2 | In these practice | periods, the idea should be repeated as often as you find profitable, |
| W1:33.3 | The shorter exercise | periods should be as frequent as possible. Specific applications of |
| W1:34.2 | Three longer practice | periods are required for today's exercises. One in the morning and |
| W1:34.3 | of mind searching are required for each of the longer practice | periods. Search your mind for fear thoughts, anxiety provoking |
| W1:35.4 | For each of the three five-minute practice | periods today, begin by repeating today's idea to yourself and then |
| W1:35.10 | During the longer exercise | periods, there will probably be intervals in which nothing specific |
| W1:36.2 | Four three- to five-minute practice | periods are required for today. Try to distribute them fairly evenly, |
| W1:36.2 | to protect your protection throughout the day. The longer practice | periods should take this form: |
| W1:36.5 | Several times during these practice | periods, close your eyes and repeat the idea to yourself. Then open |
| W1:36.6 | For the shorter exercise | periods, close your eyes and repeat the idea; look about you as you |
| W1:37.4 | Today's four longer exercise | periods, each to involve three to five minutes of practice, begin |
| W1:38.4 | In the four longer practice | periods, each preferably to last a full five minutes, repeat the idea |
| W1:39.5 | A full five minutes are urged for the four longer practice | periods for today. Longer and more frequent practice sessions are |
| W1:39.6 | Begin the practice | periods as usual by repeating today's idea to yourself. Then with |
| W1:39.10 | easier if you intersperse the applications with several short | periods during which you merely repeat today's idea to yourself |
| W1:39.11 | you should feel free to introduce variety into your practice | periods in whatever form appeals to you. Do not, however, change the |
| W1:40.1 | to which you are entitled, being what you are. No long practice | periods are required today, but very frequent short ones are |
| W1:40.2 | You need not close your eyes for the exercise | periods, although you will probably find it more helpful if you do. |
| W1:42.3 | We will have two three- to five-minute longer exercise | periods today, one as soon as possible after you wake and another as |
| W1:42.9 | There is no limit on the number of short practice | periods which would be most beneficial. The idea for the day is a |
| W1:43.4 | Three five-minute practice | periods are required today, one as early as possible and another as |
| W1:43.5 | At the beginning of these practice | periods, repeat the idea to yourself with eyes open. Then glance |
| W1:43.12 | In applying today's idea in the shorter practice | periods, the form may vary according to the circumstances and |
| W1:43.18 | Try today not to allow long | periods of time to slip by without remembering today's idea and thus |
| W1:44.4 | Have at least three practice | periods today, each lasting three to five minutes. A longer time is |
| W1:45.4 | Our three five-minute practice | periods for today will take the same general form that we used in |
| W1:46.3 | Today's exercises require at least three full five-minute practice | periods and as many shorter applications as possible. Begin the |
| W1:46.3 | as many shorter applications as possible. Begin the longer practice | periods by repeating today's idea to yourself, as usual. Close your |
| W1:47.4 | weakness to the Source of real strength. Four five-minute practice | periods are necessary today, and longer and more frequent ones are |
| W1:48.2 | Today's practice | periods will be very short, very simple, and very frequent. Merely |
| W1:49.3 | We will need at least four five-minute practice | periods today and more if possible. We will try actually to hear the |
| W1:R1.1 | Beginning with today, we will have a series of review | periods. Each of them will cover five of the ideas already presented, |
| W1:R1.1 | the ideas, which you should consider in your review. In the practice | periods, the exercises should be done as follows: |
| W1:R1.3 | that follow each idea literally or thoroughly in the practice | periods. Rather, try merely to emphasize the central point and think |
| W1:61.5 | As many practice | periods as possible should be undertaken today, although each one |

| W1:69.9 | In the shorter practice | periods, which you will want to do as often as possible in view of |
| W1:70.7 | We are ready for two longer practice | periods today, each of which should last some ten to 15 minutes. We |
| W1:70.8 | Begin these practice | periods by repeating the idea for today, adding a statement |
| W1:70.14 | For the short and frequent practice | periods today, remind yourself that your salvation comes from you and |
| W1:71.9 | Begin the two longer practice | periods for today by thinking about today's idea, and realizing that |
| W1:71.10 | this, let us devote the remainder of the extended practice | periods to asking God to reveal His plan to us. Ask Him very |
| W1:71.13 | In the shorter practice | periods tell yourself often that God's plan for salvation, and only |
| W1:72.11 | Our goal in the longer practice | periods today is to become aware that God's plan for salvation has |
| W1:72.18 | One or perhaps two shorter practice | periods an hour will be enough for today since they will be somewhat |
| W1:73.10 | We will begin our longer practice | periods with the recognition that God's plan for salvation, and only |
| W1:73.15 | In the shorter practice | periods, again make a declaration of what you really want. Say: |
| W1:74.3 | Begin the longer practice | periods by repeating these thoughts several times, slowly and with |
| W1:74.13 | In the shorter | periods, which should be undertaken at regular and predetermined |
| W1:75.4 | Our longer practice | periods will be devoted to looking at the world which our forgiveness |
| W1:75.5 | Heaven's reflection lie across the world. Begin the longer practice | periods by telling yourself the glad tidings of your release: |
| W1:75.11 | The shorter practice | periods, too, will be joyful reminders of your release. Remind |
| W1:77.4 | Begin the longer practice | periods by telling yourself quite confidently that you are entitled |

| W1:79.9 | The shorter practice | periods for today will not be set by time but by need. You will see |
| W1:80.4 | In our longer practice | periods today, we will claim the peace that must be ours when the |
| W1:R2.2 | The longer practice | periods will follow this general form: take about 15 minutes for each |
| W1:R2.4 | Regard these practice | periods as dedications to the way, the truth, and the life. Refuse to |
| W1:R2.5 | Reaffirm your determination in the shorter practice | periods as well, using the original form of the idea for general |
| W1:91.6 | Begin the longer practice | periods with this statement of true cause and effect relationships: |

| W1:95.5 | Frequent but shorter practice | periods have other advantages for you at this time. In addition to |
| W1:95.5 | of your purpose frequently, you tend to forget about it for long | periods of time. You often fail to remember the short applications of |

| W1:95.12 | which there is no doubt that only this is true. Begin the practice | periods today with this assurance, given to your mind with all the |
| W1:99.12 | of these things in practicing today, and start your longer practice | periods with this instruction in the way of truth: |
| W1:100.7 | We will prepare ourselves for this today in our five minute practice | periods by feeling happiness arise in us according to our Father's |
| W1:100.11 | Do not forget the idea for today between your longer practice | periods. It is your Self Who calls to you today. And it is Him you |
| W1:101.5 | You need the practice | periods today. The exercises teach sin is not real, and all that you |
| W1:101.9 | So should you start your practice | periods, and then attempt again to find the joy these thoughts will |

| W1:104.4 | Our longer practice | periods today, the hourly five minutes given truth for your |
| W1:105.7 | Today our practice | periods will start a little differently. Begin today by thinking of |
| W1:108.8 | So we begin the practice | periods with the instruction for today and say: |

| W1:R3.4 | dear. When you withdraw the value given them, allow your practice | periods to be replacements for your litanies to them. They gave you |
| W1:R3.10 | to let your learning not lie idly by between your longer practice | periods. Attempt to give your daily two ideas a brief but serious |
| W1:R3.11 | day as well. If you are shaken, think of it again. These practice | periods are planned to help you form the habit of applying what you |
| W1:121.10 | Begin the longer practice | periods by thinking of someone you do not like, who seems to irritate |
| W1:122.11 | Sink into happiness as you begin these practice | periods, for they hold out the sure rewards of questions answered, |
| W1:131.12 | This we acknowledge as we start upon our practice | periods. Begin with this: |
| W1:132.16 | Begin the 15 minute | periods in which we practice twice today with this: |

| Tx:28.44 | broken bit which he insisted was himself. And when he sees this | picture, he will recognize himself. If you share not your brother's |
| Tx:28.44 | himself. If you share not your brother's evil dream, this is the | picture that the miracle will place within the little gap, left clean |
| Tx:28.45 | grain of sand when it is recognized as being part of the completed | picture of God's Son! The forms the broken pieces seem to take mean |

| W1:55.3 | world I see is hardly the representation of loving thoughts. It is a | picture of attack on everything by everything. It is anything but a |
| W1:55.3 | of His Son. It is my own attack thoughts which give rise to this | picture. My loving thoughts will save me from this perception of the |
| W1:55.6 | purpose. The purpose I have given the world has led to a frightening | picture of it. Let me open my mind to its real purpose by withdrawing |

| W1:53.2 | thoughts of which I am aware do not mean anything, the world which | pictures them can have no meaning. What is producing this world is |

| Tx:28.51 | not they that hear and see, but you, who put together every jagged | piece, each senseless scrap and shred of evidence, and make a witness |

| Tx:27.19 | that healing sees no specialness at all. It does not come from | pity but from love. And love would prove all suffering is but a vain |
| Tx:31.44 | to love. It searches for companions, and it looks at times with | pity on the suffering and sometimes offers solace. It believes that |

| Tx:5.41 | recognizes it perfectly, because it is His own dwelling place or the | place in the mind where He is at home. |
| Tx:5.42 | You are at home there, too, because it is a | place of peace, and peace is of God. You who are part of God are not |
| Tx:5.58 | for my blessing. Hold it and share it, that it may always be ours. I | place the peace of God in your heart and in your hands, to hold and |
| Tx:5.71 | election is both free and alterable. You do not belong in time. Your | place is only in eternity, where God Himself placed you forever. |
| Tx:6.30 | How else can you find joy in a joyless | place except by realizing that you are not there? You cannot be |
| Tx:6.53 | never detract from it in any way. You therefore retain the central | place in your perceived enslavement, a fact which itself demonstrates |
| Tx:6.68 | that you turn in that direction. Having chosen to go that way, you | place yourself in charge of the journey, where you and only you must |
| Tx:7.48 | you have changed it as long as you learn through the ego. This does | place you in a position of needing to learn a lesson which seems |
| Tx:7.61 | war, and vigilance therefore has become essential. Vigilance has no | place at all in peace. It is necessary against beliefs which are not |
| Tx:8.21 | to him, because it is your responsibility to yourself. Give him his | place in the Kingdom, and you will have yours. The Kingdom cannot be |
| Tx:8.35 | be included in It, because It is everything. Unless you take your | place in It and fulfill your function as part of It, It is as bereft |
| Tx:8.83 | used sleep. To whom did you give it? Under which teacher did you | place it? Whenever you wake dispiritedly, it was not of the Holy |

| Tx:9.36 | Miracles have no | place in eternity because they are reparative. Yet while you still |
| Tx:9.57 | part of it, and while you leave your part of it empty, your eternal | place merely waits for your return. God, through His Voice, reminds |
| Tx:9.71 | of God's gift, because you have accepted something else in its | place. If you understand that the misuse of defenses always |
| Tx:9.82 | reality is not divided. To accept other gods before Him is to | place other images before yourself. |
| Tx:9.83 | you are on their behalf. Yet they exist only because you honor them. | Place honor where it is due, and peace will be yours. It is your |

| Tx:9.103 | Heaven waits for his return, for it was created as the dwelling | place of God's Son. You are not at home anywhere else or in any other |

| Tx:10.5 | will be blessed by Him, for you will be restoring the holy dwelling | place of His Son, where He wills His Son to be and where he is. In |
| Tx:10.7 | Is this conceivable? Can part of His Mind contain nothing? If your | place in His Mind cannot be filled by anyone except you, and your |
| Tx:10.7 | filling it was your creation, without you there would be an empty | place in God's Mind. Extension cannot be blocked, and it has no |
| Tx:10.10 | God has given you a | place in His Mind which is yours forever. Yet you could keep it only |

| Tx:11.34 | placed its source, and where it began it must end. For in this same | place also lies salvation. The altar of God where Christ abideth is |
| Tx:11.35 | vision changed, and there you will learn to see truly. From this | place, where God and His Son dwell in peace and where you are |
| Tx:11.35 | will look out in peace and behold the world truly. Yet to find the | place, you must relinquish your investment in the world as you have |
| Tx:11.45 | will be unable to avoid interpreting this as reinforcement. The only | place where you can cancel out all reinforcement is in yourself. For |
| Tx:11.68 | the acceptance of two goals, each perceived in a different | place, separated from each other because you made them different. The |
| Tx:11.71 | it is because you saw something that is not there. Yet in that same | place, you could have looked upon me and all your brothers in the |

| Tx:11.94 | a belief in condemnation of one by another, projecting separation in | place of unity. You can condemn only yourself, and by so doing, you |
| Tx:12.3 | belief in guilt from your awareness. For in that dark and secret | place is the realization that you have betrayed God's Son by |
| Tx:12.11 | afraid. For this memory would instantly restore you to your proper | place, and it is this place that you have sought to leave. |
| Tx:12.11 | would instantly restore you to your proper place, and it is this | place that you have sought to leave. |
| Tx:12.18 | for love to your Father as your Father calls you to Himself. In that | place which you have hidden, you will only to unite with the Father |
| Tx:12.18 | with the Father in loving remembrance of Him. You will find this | place of truth as you see it in your brothers, for though they may |

| Tx:12.22 | you can look back on them and see them as insane. But seek this | place, and you will find it, for love is in you and will lead you |
| Tx:12.31 | hand, regards the function of time as one of extending itself in | place of eternity, for like the Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the |
| Tx:13.13 | rewarded as you gave it. You will accept your treasure, and if you | place your faith in the past, the future will be like it. Whatever |
| Tx:13.28 | of guilt that dims your vision, and look past darkness to the holy | place where you will see the light. The altar to your Father is as |
| Tx:13.58 | in nothing is deceiving you. Offer your faith to Me, and I will | place it gently in the holy place where it belongs. You will find no |
| Tx:13.58 | you. Offer your faith to Me, and I will place it gently in the holy | place where it belongs. You will find no deception there but only the |
| Tx:13.72 | to look upon without imposing on himself the penalty of guilt in | place of all the happy teaching the Holy Spirit would gladly offer |
| Tx:13.76 | Would you deny the truth of God's decision and | place your pitiful appraisal of yourself in place of His calm and |
| Tx:13.76 | of God's decision and place your pitiful appraisal of yourself in | place of His calm and unswerving value of His Son? Nothing can shake |
| Tx:13.90 | His perfect Love. Fail not in your function of loving in a loveless | place made out of darkness and deceit, for thus are darkness and |
| Tx:14.15 | Each one you see you | place within the holy circle of Atonement or leave outside, judging |
| Tx:14.15 | is what he seeks, along with you. Come, let us join him in the holy | place of peace, which is for all of us, united as one within the |
| Tx:14.20 | would He separate from you. The power of decision, which you made in | place of the power of creation, He would teach you how to use on your |
| Tx:14.28 | other. Apart, this fact is lost from sight, for each in a separate | place can be endowed with firm belief. Bring them together, and the |
| Tx:14.28 | apparent. One will go because the other is seen in the same | place. Light cannot enter darkness when a mind believes in darkness |
| Tx:14.32 | upon His guiltless Son. All this lies hidden in every darkened | place shrouded in guilt and in the dark denial of innocence. Behind |
| Tx:14.34 | Holy Spirit shines. He shines not in division, but in the meeting | place where God, united with His Son, speaks to His Son through Him. |
| Tx:14.34 | between what cannot be divided cannot cease. The holy meeting | place of the unseparated Father and His Son lies in the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:14.36 | And truth will make this plain to you as you are brought into the | place where you must meet with truth. And there you must be led, |
| Tx:14.36 | by the Creator and by His creations. In the holy meeting | place are joined the Father and His creations, and the creations of |
| Tx:14.38 | wherein is your safety apart from it? The making of time to take the | place of timelessness lay in the decision to be not as you were. |
| Tx:14.59 | have you taught yourselves that you can possibly prefer to keep in | place of what you have and what you are? |
| Tx:14.66 | Whom God has given you will speak to you. He will take His rightful | place in your awareness the instant you abandon it and offer it to |
| Tx:14.70 | you cannot call on Him in vain. He always gives what He has made in | place of you. He would establish His bright teaching so firmly in |
| Tx:15.22 | Littleness is the offering you gave yourself. You offered this in | place of magnitude, and you accepted it. Everything in this world is |
| Tx:15.37 | no plan of the ego before the plan of God. For you leave empty your | place in His plan, which you must fulfill if you would join with me, |
| Tx:15.49 | into holiness by removing as much fear as you will let Him. You can | place any relationship under His care and be sure that it will not |
| Tx:15.57 | what you cannot find without. I offer you my perfect faith in you in | place of all your doubt. But forget not that my faith must be as |
| Tx:15.64 | in your awareness. God and the power of God will take their rightful | place in you, and you will experience the full communication of ideas |
| Tx:15.91 | When the body ceases to attract you and when you | place no value on it as a means for getting anything, then there will |
| Tx:15.91 | it as undivided, you join Him wholly in an instant. [For you would | place no limits on your union with Him.] The reality of this |
| Tx:15.99 | To Him you ascribed the ego's treachery, inviting it to take His | place to protect you from Him. And you do not recognize that it is |
| Tx:15.112 | delayed. Accept the holy instant as this year is born and take your | place, so long left unfulfilled, in the Great Awakening. Make this |
| Tx:16.18 | have so little faith in what you heard because you have preferred to | place still greater faith in the disaster you have made. Today let us |
| Tx:16.20 | by. They have already proved their power sufficiently for you to | place your faith in them and not in their denial. This year invest in |
| Tx:16.25 | keeping one with you what you would exclude. And they will take the | place of what you took in to replace them. They are quite real as |
| Tx:16.32 | love relationship is not perceived as a value in itself, but as a | place of safety from which hatred is split off and kept apart. The |
| Tx:16.39 | all fantasy and to be entirely unwilling to settle for illusion in | place of truth. |
| Tx:16.45 | as union. Here, where the illusion of love is accepted in love's | place, love is perceived as separation and exclusion. |
| Tx:16.49 | and of giving nothing of value in return. For how much value can he | place upon a self that he would give away to get a better one? |
| Tx:16.51 | terrible attraction of guilt, which the ego holds out to those who | place their faith in littleness. The conviction of littleness lies in |
| Tx:16.54 | is a ritual of form, aimed at the raising of the form to take the | place of God at the expense of content. There is no meaning in the |
| Tx:16.55 | completion, you do not want this. For every idol which you raise to | place before Him stands before you in place of what you are. |
| Tx:16.55 | every idol which you raise to place before Him stands before you in | place of what you are. |
| Tx:16.67 | of truth and beauty there. And be you thankful that there is a | place where truth and beauty wait for you. Go on to meet them gladly, |
| Tx:16.68 | is increased with each light that returns to take its rightful | place within it. Wait no longer, for the love of God and you. And may |
| Tx:16.79 | all His Love, without limit, will support you as you seek only your | place in the plan of Atonement arising from His Love. Be an ally of |
| Tx:16.79 | His Messenger understands how to restore the Kingdom to you and to | place all your investment in salvation in your relationship with Him. |
| Tx:16.80 | small, possible or impossible. There is nothing that will not give | place to Him and to His majesty. To join in close relationship with |
| Tx:17.8 | and so easy to cross that you could not believe it is the meeting | place of worlds so different. Yet this little bridge is the strongest |
| Tx:17.40 | of both pictures can at last occur. And each is given its rightful | place, when both are seen in relation to each other. The dark picture |
| Tx:17.42 | As God ascends into His rightful | place and you to yours, you will experience again the meaning of |
| Tx:17.56 | is fixed, firm, and unalterable, and the means will surely fall in | place because the goal is sure. And you will share the gladness of |
| Tx:17.64 | did not believe that the situation and the problem were in the same | place. The problem was the lack of faith, and it is this you |
| Tx:17.64 | it is this you demonstrate when you remove it from its source and | place it elsewhere. As a result, you do not see the problem. Had you |
| Tx:18.10 | holy and so perfect that illusions cannot remain to darken the holy | place in which you stand together. God is with you, my brothers. Let |
| Tx:18.19 | it. In your waking dreams, the special relationship [has a special | place. It is the means by which you try to make your sleeping dreams |
| Tx:18.37 | But to receive it, I must be willing not to substitute my own in | place of it. |
| Tx:18.40 | become the arbiter of what is possible and remain unwilling to give | place to One Who knows. The whole belief in orders of difficulty in |
| Tx:18.49 | left not his Father and dwells not apart from Him. Heaven is not a | place nor a condition. It is merely an awareness of perfect Oneness |
| Tx:18.56 | Yet only thus can you escape. The home of vengeance is not yours; the | place you set aside to house your hate is not a prison but an |
| Tx:18.62 | because you want it. The sudden expansion of the self which takes | place with your desire for it is the irresistible appeal the holy |
| Tx:18.62 | you, to welcome you to openness of mind and freedom. Come to this | place of refuge, where you can be yourself in peace. Not through |
| Tx:18.69 | do nothing has no need for time. To do nothing is to rest and make a | place within you where the activity of the body ceases to demand |
| Tx:18.69 | where the activity of the body ceases to demand attention. Into this | place the Holy Spirit comes and there abides. He will remain when you |
| Tx:18.70 | Yet there will always be this | place of rest to which you can return. And you will be more aware of |
| Tx:18.79 | rest to those who lost their way and wander in the dust. Give them a | place of refuge, prepared by love for them where once a desert was. |
| Tx:18.79 | with him from Heaven for you. They enter one by one into this holy | place, but they will not depart as they had come, alone. The love |
| Tx:18.88 | fury, vengeance, and betrayal that were made to keep the guilt in | place, so that the world could rise from it and keep it hidden. Its |
| Tx:18.94 | interfere with love, letting it be itself. A step beyond this holy | place [of forgiveness], a step still further inward but the one you |
| Tx:18.98 | And when the memory of God has come to you in the holy | place of forgiveness, you will remember nothing else, and memory will |
| Tx:19.6 | Both cannot be together nor perceived in the same | place. To dedicate yourself to both is to set up a goal forever |
| Tx:19.13 | that receives it looks instantly beyond the body and sees the holy | place where it was healed. There is the altar where the grace was |
| Tx:19.22 | truth, to what can it be brought? The “holiness” of sin is kept in | place by just this strange device. As truth it is inviolate, and |
| Tx:19.36 | other as yourself. Your relationship is now a temple of healing—a | place where all the weary ones can come and find rest. Here is the |
| Tx:19.42 | Will of God, just by a little. And that little is a limit you would | place upon the whole. God's Will is One, not many. It has no |
| Tx:19.63 | would interpose between peace and its going forth but barriers you | place between your will and its accomplishment? You want communion, |
| Tx:19.64 | sacrifice cannot be asked of you? There is no obstacle which you can | place before our union, for in your holy relationship, I am there |
| Tx:19.79 | nor to its master. When you accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose in | place of the ego's, you renounced death, exchanging it for life. We |
| Tx:19.94 | of what lies beyond. Your wanting fear seemed to be holding them in | place. Yet when you heard the voice of love beyond them, you answered |
| Tx:19.98 | will be ready. Let us join together in a holy instant, here in this | place where the purpose given in a holy instant has led you. And let |
| Tx:19.99 | Nor is it possible to look on this too soon. This is the | place to which everyone must come when he is ready. Once he has found |
| Tx:19.99 | Once he has found his brother, he is ready. Yet merely to reach the | place is not enough. A journey without a purpose is still |
| Tx:19.105 | Here is the holy | place of resurrection to which we come again; to which we will return |
| Tx:19.106 | He leadeth you and me together that we might meet here in this holy | place and make the same decision. |
| Tx:19.110 | gentle yet so strong that it would lift you far beyond the veil and | place the Son of God safely within the sure protection of his Father. |
| Tx:20.29 | Sin has no | place in Heaven, where its results are alien and can no more enter |
| Tx:20.48 | Homeless, the ego seeks as many bodies as it can collect to | place its idols in and so establish them as temples to itself. |
| Tx:20.49 | be. Would He Who sees the face of Christ choose as His home the only | place in all the universe where it can not be seen? |
| Tx:20.51 | with them. Yet what you fear is but the herald of escape. This | place of darkness is not your home. Your temple is not threatened. |
| Tx:20.61 | of Christ or of the ego. Either must be an error, for both would | place the attributes where they cannot be. And both must be undone |
| Tx:20.67 | lost to you through your desire for something else. Open the holy | place which you closed off by valuing the “something else,” and what |
| Tx:20.69 | that Christ may rise before your vision and give you joy. And | place no value on your brother's body, which holds him to illusions |
| Tx:20.72 | Everything looked upon with vision falls gently into | place according to the laws brought to it by His calm and certain |
| Tx:21.8 | you, but just a little wisp of melody, attached not to a person or a | place or anything particular. But you remember from just this little |
| Tx:21.26 | you think what you have made can tell you what you see and feel and | place your faith in its ability to do so, you are denying your |
| Tx:21.31 | hold him and placing it in his freedom instead. It is impossible to | place equal faith in opposite directions. What faith you give to sin |
| Tx:21.36 | faith had limited their understanding of the world, desiring to | place its power elsewhere should another point of view be given them. |
| Tx:21.51 | in which your freedom lies awaiting but your choice. And if you | place your faith in them, you will perceive another Self in you. This |
| Tx:21.53 | of God must be in you now, being eternal. You must have set aside a | place in which the Holy Spirit can abide and where He is. He must |
| Tx:21.56 | serve the great deceiver's needs as well as truth. But reason has no | place at all in madness, nor can it be adjusted to fit its end. Faith |
| Tx:21.62 | is an attack on reason that drives it out of mind and takes its | place. Reason does not attack but takes the place of madness quietly, |
| Tx:21.62 | of mind and takes its place. Reason does not attack but takes the | place of madness quietly, replacing madness if it be the will of the |
| Tx:21.84 | happiness, or happiness in changing form that shifts with time and | place, is an illusion which has no meaning. Happiness must be |
| Tx:22.1 | can look on sin together, for they could never see it in the same | place and time. Sin is a strictly individual perception, seen in the |
| Tx:22.38 | When you come to the | place where the branch in the road is quite apparent, you cannot go |
| Tx:22.40 | And so you stand, here in this holy | place, before the veil of sin that hangs between you and the face of |
| Tx:22.40 | them into a darkened world that needs the light. And from this holy | place He will return with you, not leaving it nor you. You will |
| Tx:22.55 | relationship corrects the error and lays a part of Heaven in its | place. How blessed are you who let this gift be given! Each part of |
| Tx:22.55 | Each part of Heaven that you bring is given you. And every empty | place in Heaven that you fill again with the Eternal Light you bring |
| Tx:22.58 | other's eyes, and each one is released as he beholds his savior in | place of the attacker who he thought was there. Through this |
| Tx:22.60 | lies buried the heavy anchor that seems to keep the fear of God in | place, unmovable and solid as a rock. While this remains, so will it |
| Tx:23.4 | aside? Your destiny and purpose are far beyond them in the clean | place where littleness does not exist. Your purpose is at variance |
| Tx:23.10 | the war against yourself is almost over. The journey's end is at the | place of peace. Would you not now accept the peace offered you here? |
| Tx:23.16 | set him in serenity and peace and dwells with him. Illusions have no | place where love abides, protecting you from everything that is not |
| Tx:23.29 | He hid it in his body, making it the cover for his guilt, the hiding | place for what belongs to you. Now must his body be destroyed and |
| Tx:23.31 | These are the laws you made for your salvation. They hold in | place the substitute for Heaven which you prefer. This is their |
| Tx:23.32 | belief that it is true. It is the function of insanity to take the | place of truth. It must be seen as truth to be believed. And if it is |
| Tx:23.46 | because the guns are stilled an instant and the fear that haunts the | place of death is not apparent, that it will not return. There is no |
| Tx:23.47 | of God is fear of life and not of death. Yet He remains the only | place of safety. In Him is no attack, and no illusion in any form |
| Tx:23.51 | Be lifted up and from a higher | place look down upon it. From there will your perspective be quite |
| Tx:23.52 | a loss of peace. This you know well. When it occurs, leave not your | place on high but quickly choose a miracle instead of murder. And God |
| Tx:24.3 | and love is gone because you asked a substitute to take its | place. And now must war, the substitute for peace, come with the one |
| Tx:24.17 | his mind accepts the truth about himself as it returns to take their | place. This is the only “cost” of truth: you will no longer see what |
| Tx:24.18 | You who have chained your savior to your specialness and given it his | place, remember this: He has not lost the power to forgive you all |
| Tx:24.20 | His Heaven so remote that they cannot be reached. Here in this holy | place does truth stand waiting to receive you both in silent blessing |
| Tx:24.20 | nothing stands outside. Leave all illusions of yourself outside this | place to which you come in hope and honesty. |
| Tx:24.24 | prison-house which keeps His Son from Him. For it demands a special | place God cannot enter and a hiding-place where none is welcome but |
| Tx:24.25 | to you when you were ready to accept His plan for your salvation in | place of yours. How could this readiness be reached save through the |
| Tx:24.54 | And it is He they look for everywhere and find no sight nor | place nor time where He is not. Within your brother's holiness, the |
| Tx:24.58 | cannot be what governs part of God holds not for all the rest. You | place yourself under the laws you see as ruling him. Think, then, how |
| Tx:24.62 | your son, beloved of you as you are to your Father. Yet it stands in | place of your creations, who are son to you, that you might share the |
| Tx:24.62 | is lavished? What is this parody of God's creation that takes the | place of yours? And where are they, now that the host of God has |
| Tx:25.10 | All this takes note of time and | place as if they were discrete, for while you think that part of you |
| Tx:25.13 | of satisfaction from the world you see? In no respect at any time or | place has anything but fear and guilt been your reward. How long is |
| Tx:25.13 | to base your future hopes and no suggestions of success at all. To | place your hopes where no hope lies must make you hopeless. Yet is |
| Tx:25.17 | not make the frame into the picture when you choose to see it in its | place. The frame that God has given it but serves His purpose, not |
| Tx:25.27 | If it elects to see them elsewhere from their home, as if they lit a | place where they could never be, and you agree, then must the Maker |
| Tx:25.36 | as his only home? Nothing before and nothing after it. No other | place, no other state nor time. Nothing beyond nor nearer. Nothing |
| Tx:25.45 | ones are those who see no function in the world for them to fill, no | place where they are needed, and no aim which only they can perfectly |
| Tx:25.52 | carefully. It must be so that either God is mad or is this world a | place of madness. Not one Thought of His makes any sense at all |
| Tx:25.56 | The form is suited to your special needs and to the special time and | place in which you think you find yourself and where you can be free |
| Tx:25.56 | in which you think you find yourself and where you can be free of | place and time and all that you believe must limit you. The Son of |
| Tx:25.56 | believe must limit you. The Son of God cannot be bound by time nor | place nor anything God did not will. Yet if His Will is seen as |
| Tx:25.78 | doubt that this is possible will you hold dear that sin be kept in | place. You mean that truth has greater value now than all illusions. |
| Tx:25.83 | justice if some errors are unforgivable and warrant vengeance in | place of healing and return of peace? |
| Tx:26.12 | saw them vanish one by one without regard to size, complexity, or | place and time, or any attribute which you perceive that makes each |
| Tx:26.16 | transformed into a universal blessing. Sacrifice is gone. And in its | place the love of God can be remembered and will shine away all |
| Tx:26.19 | of thought which stands between this world and Heaven. It is not a | place, and when you reach it is apart from time. Here is the |
| Tx:26.20 | past the gate where Oneness is. Salvation is a borderland where | place and time and choice have meaning still, and yet it can be seen |
| Tx:26.20 | still, and yet it can be seen that they are temporary, out of | place, and every choice has been already made. |
| Tx:26.27 | The holy | place on which you stand is but the space that sin has left. And here |
| Tx:26.27 | sin has left. And here you see the face of Christ arising in its | place. Who could behold the face of Christ and not recall His Father |
| Tx:26.27 | Who could fear love and stand upon the ground where sin has left a | place for Heaven's altar to rise and tower far above the world and |
| Tx:26.36 | stand upon a distant shore and dream himself across an ocean to a | place and time that have long since gone by? How real a hindrance can |
| Tx:26.37 | Is this a hindrance to the | place whereon he stands? Is any echo from the past that he may hear a |
| Tx:26.37 | where he is now? And how much can his own delusions about time and | place affect a change in where he really is? The unforgiven is a |
| Tx:26.37 | what is gone could be made real again and seen as here and now in | place of what is really now and here. Is this a hindrance to the |
| Tx:26.39 | and gone be peacefully forgotten. Resurrection has come to take its | place. And now you are a part of resurrection, not of death. No past |
| Tx:26.39 | not of death. No past illusions have the power to keep you in a | place of death, a vault God's Son entered an instant, to be instantly |
| Tx:26.45 | Without Him you are friendless. Seek not another friend to take His | place. There is no other friend. What God appointed has no |
| Tx:26.46 | Make no illusion friend, for if you do, it can but take the | place of Him whom God has called your Friend. And it is He who is |
| Tx:26.46 | they have been given can make sure that you receive them. He will | place them on your throne when you make room for Him on His. |
| Tx:26.48 | perception is a wish fulfilled. Perception changes, made to take the | place of changeless knowledge. Yet is truth unchanged. It cannot be |
| Tx:26.54 | impose between your brother and yourself. They limit you to time and | place and give a little space to you, another little space to him. |
| Tx:26.79 | the flowers be all white and sparkling in the summer sun. What was a | place of death has now become a living temple in a world of light. |
| Tx:26.79 | Their Presence which has lifted holiness again to take its ancient | place upon an ancient throne. Because of Them have miracles sprung up |
| Tx:26.82 | living temple, where a home for Them has been set up. There is no | place in Heaven holier. And They have come to dwell within the temple |
| Tx:27.1 | way, and you will fear no evil and no shadows in the night. But | place no terror symbols on your path, or you will weave a crown of |
| Tx:27.11 | be remembered. Here its peace can come and perfect healing take the | place of death. The body can become a sign of life, a promise of |
| Tx:27.34 | no pictures and no learning aids.] And what will ultimately take the | place of every learning aid will merely be. Forgiveness vanishes and |
| Tx:27.43 | which the answer has been barred. But bring the problem to the only | place which holds the answer lovingly for you. Here are the answers |
| Tx:27.46 | conflict and has reached to peace. It carries comfort from the | place of peace into the battleground and demonstrates that war has no |
| Tx:27.58 | And this it proves because its own effects have come to take their | place. It matters not the name by which you called your suffering. It |
| Tx:27.61 | will be revealed to you who chose to let love's symbols take the | place of sin. |
| Tx:27.74 | Rest in the Holy Spirit and allow His gentle dreams to take the | place of those you dreamed in terror and in fear of death. He brings |
| Tx:27.77 | it were a person, to be seen and be believed. It takes the central | place in every dream, which tells the story of how it was made by |
| Tx:28.2 | see. Memory, like perception, is a skill made up by you to take the | place of what God gave in your creation. And like all the things you |
| Tx:28.11 | Their own remembering is quiet now, and what has come to take its | place will not be wholly unremembered afterwards. |
| Tx:28.15 | not? And where is sacrifice, when memory of God has come to take the | place of loss? What better way to close the little gap between |
| Tx:28.22 | of them when he perceives he made them up. The fear was held in | place because he did not see that he was author of the dream, and not |
| Tx:28.32 | enclosing nothing, doing nothing, and as unsubstantial as the empty | place between the ripples that a ship has made in passing by. And |
| Tx:28.35 | you witness to what never was. And in your storehouse it will make a | place of welcome for your Father and your Self. The door is open that |
| Tx:28.44 | to take the broken picture of the Son of God and put the pieces into | place again. This holy picture, healed entirely, does He hold out to |
| Tx:28.44 | your brother's evil dream, this is the picture that the miracle will | place within the little gap, left clean of all the seeds of sickness |
| Tx:28.46 | to let illusions go is all the Healer of God's Son requires. He will | place the miracle of healing where the seeds of sickness were. And |
| Tx:28.50 | conceived a little gap between illusions and the truth to be the | place where all your safety lies and where your Self is safely hidden |
| Tx:28.52 | dreams and from illusions. Truth has left no room for them in any | place or time. For it fills every place and every time and makes them |
| Tx:28.52 | has left no room for them in any place or time. For it fills every | place and every time and makes them wholly indivisible. |
| Tx:28.53 | to be existing here. The world you see does not exist because the | place where you perceive it is not real. The gap is carefully |
| Tx:29.1 | There is no time, no | place, no state where God is absent. There is nothing to be feared. |
| Tx:29.14 | waits for you to come where you invited Him to be. There is no other | place where He can find His host nor where His host can meet with |
| Tx:29.23 | There, in its | place, God's Witness has set forth the gentle way of kindness to |
| Tx:29.31 | There is a | place in you where this whole world has been forgotten, where no |
| Tx:29.31 | where no memory of sin and of illusion lingers still. There is a | place in you which time has left, and echoes of eternity are heard. |
| Tx:29.31 | time has left, and echoes of eternity are heard. There is a resting | place so still no sound except a hymn to Heaven rises up to gladden |
| Tx:29.31 | is Heaven and is peace. Think not that you can change Their dwelling | place. For your Identity abides in Them, and where They are, forever |
| Tx:29.42 | what a joyous thing it is to dwell a little while in such a happy | place! Nor can it be forgot in such a world, it is a little while |
| Tx:29.42 | it is a little while till timelessness comes quietly to take the | place of time. |
| Tx:29.43 | Each idol that you worship when God calls will never answer in His | place. There is no other answer you can substitute and find the |
| Tx:29.48 | dwells within, and your completion lies in Him. No idol takes His | place. Look not to idols. Do not seek outside yourself. Let us forget |
| Tx:29.49 | have, and thus do you decide what it is for. You try to see in it a | place of idols found outside yourself, with power to make complete |
| Tx:29.51 | The sacrifice of death is nothing lost. An idol cannot take the | place of God. Let Him remind you of His love for you, and do not seek |
| Tx:29.52 | which never is perceived and recognized. Be it a body or a thing, a | place, a situation or a circumstance, an object owned or wanted, or a |
| Tx:29.55 | source abides within your mind, where God abideth not. Where is this | place where what is everywhere has been excluded and been kept apart? |
| Tx:29.57 | anti-Christ—the strange idea there is a power past omnipotence, a | place beyond the infinite, a time transcending the eternal. Here the |
| Tx:29.57 | Here the world of idols has been set by the idea this power and | place and time are given form and shape the world where the |
| Tx:29.58 | Where is an idol? Nowhere! Can there be a gap in what is infinite, a | place where time can interrupt eternity? A place of darkness set |
| Tx:29.58 | in what is infinite, a place where time can interrupt eternity? A | place of darkness set where all is light, a dismal alcove separated |
| Tx:29.58 | is light, a dismal alcove separated off from what is endless, has no | place to be. An idol is beyond where God has set all things forever |
| Tx:29.59 | of something is an idol for. And when one fails, another takes its | place with hope of finding more of something else. Be not deceived by |
| Tx:30.39 | be a substitute for God the Father's love? What form can take the | place of all the love in the divinity of God the Son? What idol can |
| Tx:30.46 | earth or not. The sky embraces it and softly holds it in its perfect | place, which is as far from earth as earth from Heaven. It is not the |
| Tx:30.54 | to be deceived. And you can make a simple choice that will forever | place you far beyond deception. You need not concern yourself with |
| Tx:30.57 | becomes its aim. The value of forgiveness is perceived and takes the | place of idols which are sought no longer, for their “gifts” are not |
| Tx:30.58 | by which it can be gained can now be understood. The world becomes a | place of hope because its only purpose is to be a place where hope of |
| Tx:30.58 | world becomes a place of hope because its only purpose is to be a | place where hope of happiness can be fulfilled. And no one stands |
| Tx:30.72 | is the only change that lets the real world rise to take the | place of dreams of terror. Fear cannot arise unless attack is |
| Tx:30.88 | what it stands for, and you will believe the world is an uncertain | place in which you walk in danger and uncertainty. It is but your |
| Tx:30.94 | upon when you decide there is not one appearance you would hold in | place of what your brother really is. Let no temptation to prefer a |
| Tx:31.12 | as you are free because an ancient learning passed away and left a | place for truth to be reborn. |
| Tx:31.22 | a call that never has been made. Nothing will hurt you in this holy | place to which you come to listen silently and learn the truth of |
| Tx:31.23 | you and thinks perhaps a bit behind, a bit ahead, would be a safer | place for him to be. Can you make progress if you think the same, |
| Tx:31.30 | for here guilt rules and orders that the world be like itself—a | place where nothing can find mercy or survive the ravages of fear |
| Tx:31.33 | which its purpose is to keep. Why should this be? Because it is a | place where choice among illusions seems to be the only choice. And |
| Tx:31.36 | Why would you seek to try another road, another person, or another | place when you have learned the way the lesson starts but do not yet |
| Tx:31.44 | no likeness to yourself at all. It is an idol, made to take the | place of your reality as Son of God. The concept of the self the |
| Tx:31.64 | passed that both may disappear, so that perception finds no hiding | place. How is this done? It is not done at all. What could there be |
| Tx:31.67 | So the world is seen as stable, fully worthy of your trust; a happy | place to rest in for a while, where nothing need be feared but only |
| Tx:31.84 | Choose once again if you would take your | place among the saviors of the world, or would remain in hell and |
| Tx:31.88 | and let Christ's strength prevail in every circumstance and every | place you raised an image of yourself before. For what appears to |
| Tx:31.93 | to my words. I ask for nothing but your own release. There is no | place for hell within a world whose loveliness can yet be so intense |

| W1:15.1 | your body's eyes. It is not seeing. It is image-making. It takes the | place of seeing, replacing vision with illusions. |

| W1:42.2 | through time and space is not random. You cannot but be in the right | place at the right time. Such is the strength of God. Such are His |
| W1:45.11 | in Heaven itself to God the Father and God the Son. For such is the | place you are trying to reach. You will probably be unable as yet to |
| W1:47.8 | phase of the practice period, try to reach down into your mind to a | place of real safety. You will recognize that you have reached it if |
| W1:47.8 | and reach down and below them to the Kingdom of Heaven. There is a | place in you where there is perfect peace. There is a place in you |
| W1:47.8 | There is a place in you where there is perfect peace. There is a | place in you where nothing is impossible. There is a place in you |

| W1:49.4 | We are trying to reach your real home. We are trying to reach the | place where you are truly welcome. We are trying to reach God. |
| W1:50.4 | the Son of God. Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Such is the resting | place where your Father has placed you forever. |

| W1:51.2 | this, that I may learn to see. What I think I see now is taking the | place of vision. I must let it go by realizing that it has no meaning |
| W1:51.2 | go by realizing that it has no meaning so that vision may take its | place. |
| W1:51.5 | I am not aware of them because I have made my thoughts to take their | place. I am willing to recognize that my thoughts do not mean |
| W1:53.4 | from my belief in it. Now I choose to withdraw this belief and | place my trust in reality. In choosing this, I will escape all the |
| W1:53.6 | it is not my will that they do so. My will is His, and I will | place no other gods before Him. |
| W1:55.4 | a world of peace and safety and joy. It is this I choose to see in | place of what I look on now. |
| W1:56.4 | to see differently. The world I see holds my fearful self-image in | place, and guarantees its continuance. While I see the world as I see |
| W1:57.4 | a prison for God's Son. It must be, then, that the world is really a | place where he can be set free. I would look upon the world as it is, |
| W1:57.4 | be set free. I would look upon the world as it is, and see it as a | place where the Son of God finds his freedom. |
| W1:57.5 | [34] I could see peace instead of this. When I see the world as a | place of freedom, I will realize that it reflects the laws of God |
| W1:57.5 | perceive that peace also abides in the hearts of all who share this | place with me. |
| W1:61.3 | function on earth. It is a giant stride toward taking your rightful | place in salvation. It is a positive assertion of your right to be |
| W1:63.2 | to you. Accept no trivial purpose or meaningless desire in its | place or you will forget your function and leave the Son of God in |
| W1:64.2 | He sees another purpose in them. To the Holy Spirit, the world is a | place where you learn to forgive yourself what you think of as your |
| W1:65.1 | yourself. This is the only way in which you can take your rightful | place among the saviors of the world. This is the only way in which |
| W1:70.1 | you must also realize that guilt and salvation must be in the same | place. Understanding this you are saved. |
| W1:71.1 | the opposite of God's, you also believe that to accept God's plan in | place of the ego's is to be damned. This sounds preposterous, of |
| W1:72.5 | and a deceiver, full of false promises and offering illusions in | place of truth. |
| W1:72.8 | of truth and welcome it as Friend. Your chosen savior takes His | place instead. It is your friend; He is your enemy. |
| W1:73.9 | will be done. And end forever the insane belief that it is hell in | place of Heaven that you choose. |
| W1:78.11 | looked upon the miracle of love the Holy Spirit showed you in their | place. The world and Heaven join in thanking you, for not one thought |
| W1:80.1 | given you. Accept that fact, and you are ready to take your rightful | place in God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:89.2 | and replace them with miracles. And I would accept the miracles in | place of the grievances, which are but illusions that hide the |
| W1:90.2 | of the grievance and my welcome of the miracle which takes its | place. |
| W1:91.10 | your attributes to be corrected, and their opposites to take their | place. Say, for example: |
| W1:92.9 | Self stands ready to embrace you as Its own. Such is the meeting | place we try today to find and rest in, for the peace of God is where |
| W1:92.10 | the body's eyes and asking truth to show us how to find the meeting | place of self and Self, where light and strength are one. |
| W1:93.10 | practice period in trying to experience what God has given you in | place of what you have decreed for yourself. |
| W1:95.12 | is true. Today we will affirm this truth again and try to reach the | place in you in which there is no doubt that only this is true. Begin |
| W1:96.3 | in conflict could not be resolved, and good and evil have no meeting | place. The self you made can never be your Self, nor can your Self be |
| W1:96.4 | physical, your mind is gone from your self-concept, for it has no | place in which it could be really part of you. If you are Spirit, |
| W1:96.14 | mind go wandering in a world of dreams, to find illusions in their | place. Here are your thoughts, the only ones you have. Salvation is |
| W1:98.3 | their function will be filled completely in the perfect time and | place. They took the stand which we will take today that we may share |
| W1:99.3 | How could there be a meeting | place at all where earth and Heaven can be reconciled within a mind |
| W1:99.20 | let all fear be gently laid aside that Love may find Its rightful | place in you and show you that you are the Son of God. |
| W1:100.4 | on earth calls to all minds to let their sorrows go and take their | place beside you in God's plan. God's messengers are joyous, and |
| W1:100.8 | be happy. Only this is asked of you or anyone who wants to take his | place among God's messengers. Think what this means. You have indeed |
| W1:100.10 | there. And you can reach Him now. What could you rather look upon in | place of Him Who waits that you may look on Him? What little thought |
| W1:103.6 | as truth replaces fear, and joy becomes what you expect to take the | place of pain. God being Love, it will be given you. Bolster this |
| W1:104.1 | God, Who cannot fail to give you what He wills. Yet must there be a | place made ready to receive His gifts. They are not welcomed gladly |
| W1:104.3 | Therefore we will to have them now and know in choosing them in | place of what we made we but unite our will with what God wills and |
| W1:104.7 | We clear a holy | place within our minds before His altar, where His gifts of peace and |
| W1:107.4 | liberating you from all beliefs in the ephemeral. They have no | place because the truth has come, and they are nowhere. They cannot |
| W1:108.1 | because the Thought behind it will appear instead, to take its | place. And now we are at peace forever, for the dream is over now. |
| W1:108.4 | depend on which is seen as first, nor which appears to be in second | place. Here it is understood that both occur together, that the |
| W1:109.11 | were born and where they rest. And we remind them of their resting | place each time we tell ourselves, |
| W1:110.2 | will heal all the mistakes that any mind has made at any time or | place. It is enough to heal the past and make the future free. It is |
| W1:R3.6 | Place the ideas within your mind and let it use them as it chooses. | |
| W1:111.3 | is the dark His gift dispels by giving me His strength to take its | place. |
| W1:121.2 | mind is full of fear and offers love no room to be itself, no | place where it can spread its wings in peace and soar above the |
| W1:122.8 | and of peace. Forgiveness is the means by which it comes to take the | place of hell. In quietness it rises up to greet your open eyes and |
| W1:123.2 | He has saved you from the self you thought you made to take the | place of Him and His creation. Give Him thanks today. |
| W1:124.2 | God and with itself. How easily do errors disappear and death give | place to everlasting life. Our shining footprints point the way to |
| W1:125.4 | holy time of peace. We gather at the throne of God today, the quiet | place within the mind where He abides forever in the holiness which |
| W1:126.2 | Let us consider what you do believe in | place of this idea. It seems to you that other people are apart from |
| W1:126.9 | idea. It is the thought by which forgiveness takes its proper | place in your priorities. It is the thought that will release your |
| W1:126.10 | does not understand forgiveness and seek sanctuary in the quiet | place where thoughts are changed and false beliefs laid by. Repeat |
| W1:127.8 | Voice will answer. He Himself has promised this. And He Himself will | place a spark of truth within your mind wherever you give up a false |
| W1:128.3 | Escape today the chains you | place upon your mind when you perceive salvation here. For what you |
| W1:129.5 | the world you do not want. Here is the world that comes to take its | place as you unbind your mind from little things the world sets forth |
| W1:129.6 | it be given you today. It waits but for your choosing it to take the | place of all the things you seek but do not want. |
| W1:130.12 | of Heaven still remains within your range of choice to take the | place of everything that hell would show to you. All you need say to |
| W1:131.1 | succeed where contradiction is the setting of his searching and the | place to which he comes to find stability? |
| W1:131.10 | Today we will not choose a paradox in | place of truth. How could the Son of God make time to take away the |
| W1:131.10 | believes that he abides in what does not exist, while Heaven is the | place he cannot find. Leave foolish thoughts like these behind today, |
| W1:131.11 | the foolish images that we held dear, with true ideas arising in the | place of thoughts which have no meaning, no effect, and neither |
| W1:131.14 | think are true. Then let them go, and sink below them to the holy | place where they can enter not. There is a door beneath them in your |
| W1:131.17 | This is a day of gladness, for we come to the appointed time and | place where you will find the goal of all your searching here and all |
| W1:132.10 | foundation for today's idea. You are as God created you. There is no | place where you can suffer and no time that can bring change to your |
| W1:132.10 | can bring change to your eternal state. How can a world of time and | place exist if you remain as God created you? |
| W1:133.5 | all of them in time and not been brought so clearly to the | place where there is but one choice that must be made. |
| W1:136.7 | stand but for your own decision of what should be real, to take the | place of what is real. |
| W1:136.18 | flash across your open mind as peace and truth arise to take the | place of war and vain imaginings. There will be no dark corners |
| W1:137.5 | have not occurred. Just as the real world will arise to take the | place of what has never been at all, healing but offers restitution |
| W1:137.7 | forgiveness shines away all sin and the real world will occupy the | place of what you made, so healing must replace the fantasies of |
| W1:137.16 | hold but what you give, and to receive the Word of God to take the | place of all the foolish thoughts that ever were imagined. Now we |
| W1:139.6 | universal here is true? Nothing the world believes is true. It is a | place whose purpose is to be a home where those who claim they do not |
| W1:140.5 | in holy temples. He is barred where sin has entered. Yet there is no | place where He is not. And therefore sin can have no home in which to |
| W1:140.5 | can have no home in which to hide from His beneficence. There is no | place where holiness is not, and nowhere sin and sickness can abide. |
| W1:R4.5 | and hold correction off through self-deceptions made to take its | place. |
| W1:R4.6 | only what you think with God. Your self-deceptions cannot take the | place of truth. No more than can a child who throws a stick into the |
| W1:R4.9 | be enough to set the day along the lines which God appointed and to | place His Mind in charge of all the thoughts you will receive that |
| W1:151.3 | was than this. But how else do you judge the world you see? You | place pathetic faith in what your eyes and ears report. You think |
| W1:152.8 | The power of decision is our own. Decide but to accept your rightful | place as co-creator of the universe, and all you think you made will |
| W1:152.8 | that there ever was, eternally as it is now. And it will take the | place of self-deceptions made but to usurp the altar to the Father |
| W1:153.13 | happy game upon this earth. And then we go to take our rightful | place where truth abides and games are meaningless. |
| W1:155.2 | is an illusion. Those who choose to come to it are seeking for a | place where they can be illusions and avoid their own reality. Yet |
| W1:157.3 | lesson, faithfully rehearsed, brings you more swiftly to this holy | place and leaves you for a moment to your Self. |
| W1:158.6 | world of doubt and shadows made with the intangible. Here is a quiet | place within the world made holy by forgiveness and by love. Here are |
| W1:158.9 | a vision of the holiness which lies beyond them comes to take their | place. It matters not what form they took nor how enormous they |
| W1:160.3 | reason be except that you had asked this stranger in to take your | place and let you be a stranger to yourself? No one would let himself |
| W1:160.7 | this stranger in your midst, for you have given him your rightful | place. Yet is your Self as certain of Its own as God is of His Son. |
| W1:163.3 | engendered and to leave the taste of dust and ashes in their wake in | place of aspirations and of dreams. But death is counted on. For it |
| W1:165.2 | Thought of God protects you, cares for you, makes soft your resting | place and smooth your way, lighting your mind with happiness and |
| W1:170.12 | stone you made and call it god no longer. You have reached this | place before, but you have chosen that this cruel god remain with you |
| W1:170.13 | And now your heart remains at peace forever. You have chosen Him in | place of idols, and your attributes, given by your Creator, are |
| W1:R5.9 | My resurrection comes again each time I lead a brother safely to the | place at which the journey ends and is forgot. I am renewed each time |
| W1:R5.15 | periods, but to recall the mind as needed to its purpose. We | place faith in the experience that comes from practice, not the means |
| W1:182.1 | is true. A memory of home keeps haunting you, as if there were a | place that called you to return, although you do not recognize the |
| W1:182.4 | home that you would find again. The childhood of your body and its | place of shelter are a memory now so distorted that you merely hold a |
| W1:183.11 | to let all things he thought he made be nameless now, and in their | place the holy Name of God becomes his judgment of their |
| W1:184.1 | to which you give a different name—all happenings in terms of | place and time, all bodies which are greeted by a name. |
| W1:184.7 | what the world would teach stops short of meaning. In its proper | place, it serves but as a starting point from which another kind of |
| W1:184.12 | He gave to those who chose the teaching of the world to take the | place of Heaven. In our practicing, our purpose is to let our minds |
| W1:184.15 | our errors seemed to have. And we accept the truth You give in | place of every one of them. Your Name is our salvation and escape |
| W1:185.1 | would be no further sorrow possible for you in any form, in any | place or time. Heaven would be completely given back to full |
| W1:185.4 | bargain can give them the peace of God? Illusions come to take His | place. And what He means is lost to sleeping minds intent on |
| W1:185.7 | acknowledges illusions are in vain, requesting the eternal in the | place of shifting dreams which seem to change in what they offer, but |
| W1:185.9 | should be asked of all of them: “Is this what I would have, in | place of Heaven and the peace of God?” This is the choice you make. |
| W1:185.12 | the gifts of God apart from every dream that ever seemed to take the | place of truth. |
| W1:187.8 | Never believe that you can sacrifice. There is no | place for sacrifice in what has any value. If the thought occurs, its |
| W1:189.5 | you will look upon that which you feel within. If hatred finds a | place within your heart, you will perceive a fearful world, held |
| W1:190.3 | Pain is a sign illusions reign in | place of truth. It demonstrates God is denied, confused with fear, |
| W1:190.6 | its own inheritance and keep it as a hospital for pain, a sickly | place where living things must come at last to die? |
| W1:190.8 | eternity and Heaven. And the world becomes a cruel and a bitter | place, where sorrow rules and little joys give way before the |
| W1:190.9 | Lay down your arms and come without defense into the quiet | place where Heaven's peace holds all things still at last. Lay down |
| W1:190.11 | as we are free to choose our joy instead of pain, our holiness in | place of sin, the peace of God instead of conflict, and the light of |
| W1:191.5 | But let today's idea find a | place among your thoughts, and you have risen far above the world and |
| W1:191.5 | and all the worldly thoughts that hold it prisoner. And from this | place of safety and escape, you will return and set it free. For he |
| W1:194.1 | has reached the lawns that welcome you to Heaven's gate, the quiet | place of peace where you await with certainty the final step of God. |
| W1:194.4 | really found in time. You are but asked to let the future go and | place it in God's hands. And you will see by your experience that you |
| W1:194.8 | Place, then, your future in the hands of God. For thus you call the | |
| W1:195.9 | Today we learn to think of gratitude in | place of anger, malice, and revenge. We have been given everything. |
| W1:195.9 | to our bitterness and to a self-perception which regards us in a | place of merciless pursuit where we are badgered ceaselessly and |
| W1:198.5 | instead of trying to dismiss His words and substitute your own in | place of His? |
| W1:198.6 | as this one will fade away, the Word of God will come to take its | place, for it will be remembered then and loved. |
| W1:198.7 | has no meaning and attack appears as justified. Yet all are one—a | place where death is offered to God's Son and to his Father. You may |
| W1:198.7 | may think They have accepted, but if you will look again upon the | place where you beheld Their blood, you will perceive a miracle |
| W1:R6.10 | And then repeat the idea for the day, and let it take the | place of what you thought. Beyond such special applications of each |
| W1:R6.11 | To Him I offer this review for you. I | place you in His charge and let Him teach you what to do and say and |
| W1:213.1 | would have me learn. A lesson is a miracle which God offers to me in | place of thoughts I made that hurt me. What I learn of Him becomes |
| W1:214.1 | [194] I | place the future in the hands of God. The past is gone; the future is |
| W2:WF.1 | its falsity and therefore lets it go. What then is free to take its | place is now the Will of God. |
| W2:226.2 | are open, and I hear Your Voice. What need have I to linger in a | place of vain desires and of broken dreams when Heaven can so easily |
| W2:WS.4 | Let us come daily to this holy | place and spend a while together. Here we share our final dream. It |
| W2:233.1 | I give You all my thoughts today. I would have none of mine. In | place of them, give me Your own. I give You all my acts as well, that |
| W2:WIW.2 | what is fear except love's absence? Thus the world was meant to be a | place where God could enter not and where His Son could be apart from |
| W2:249.1 | is now conceivable? What loss can be sustained? The world becomes a | place of joy, abundance, charity, and endless giving. It is now so |
| W2:WIS.1 | by which the mind is driven mad and seeks to let illusions take the | place of truth. And being mad, it sees illusions where the truth |
| W2:264.1 | Father, You stand before me and behind, beside me, in the | place I see myself, and everywhere I go. You are in all the things I |
| W2:264.1 | and every hand that reaches for my own. In You time disappears and | place becomes a meaningless belief. For what surrounds Your Son and |
| W2:279.1 | Yet in reality his dreams are gone, with truth established in their | place. And now is freedom his already. Should I wait in chains which |
| W2:281.1 | forgotten what You think and put my little, meaningless ideas in | place of where Your Thoughts belong and where They are. I can be hurt |
| W2:286.1 | Father, how still today! How quietly do all things fall in | place! This is the day that has been chosen as the time in which I |
| W2:WISC.1 | forever true. It is the invitation to God's Word to take illusion's | place, the willingness to let forgiveness rest upon all things |
| W2:317.1 | I have a special | place to fill—a role for me alone. Salvation waits until I take |
| W2:328.1 | What seems to be the second | place is first, for all things we perceive are upside-down until we |
| W2:332.1 | Real. Forgiveness bids this presence enter in and take its rightful | place within the mind. Without forgiveness is the mind in chains, |
| W2:344.1 | as I looked upon the treasure that I thought I had, I found an empty | place where nothing ever was or is or will be. Who can share a dream? |
| W2:E.4 | And now I | place you in His hands, to be His faithful followers, with Him as |
| M:1.3 | in words or soundlessly, in any language or in no language, in any | place or time or manner. It does not matter who the teacher was |
| M:2.4 | had not met before. The pupil comes at the right time to the right | place. This is inevitable, because he made the right choice in that |
| M:4.4 | when the mighty power of an eagle has been given him? And who would | place his faith in the shabby offerings of the ego when the gifts of |
| M:4.15 | And who would choose the weakness that must come from harm in | place of the unfailing, all-encompassing, and limitless strength of |
| M:5.7 | all confusion about creation. Does not this follow of necessity? | Place cause and effect in their true sequence in one respect, and the |
| M:5.9 | Son of God, what life can offer you. Would you choose sickness in | place of this? |
| M:8.6 | as reality is wholly real, apart from size and shape and time and | place—for differences cannot exist within it—so too are illusions |
| M:14.5 | The world will end in joy because it is a | place of sorrow. When joy has come, the purpose of the world has |
| M:14.5 | of the world has gone. The world will end in peace because it is a | place of war. When peace has come, what is the purpose of the world? |
| M:14.5 | purpose of the world? The world will end in laughter because it is a | place of tears. Where there is laughter, who can longer weep? And |
| M:16.6 | because all things are freed within it. You think you made a | place of safety for yourself. You think you made a power that can |
| M:16.8 | sure success is not of him but will be given him at any time, in any | place and circumstance he calls for it. There are times his certainty |
| M:16.8 | and the instant this occurs he will return to earlier attempts to | place reliance on himself alone. Forget not this is magic and that |
| M:17.5 | surely so. And herein lies the birthplace of guilt. Who usurps the | place of God and takes it for himself now has a deadly “enemy.” And |
| M:17.7 | Each one says clearly to your frightened mind, “You have usurped the | place of God. Think not He has forgotten.” Here we have the fear of |
| M:19.3 | in which all thought of wholeness must be lost. Forgiveness has no | place in such a scheme, for not one “sin” but seems forever true. |
| M:20.2 | a contrast of true differences. The past just slips away and in its | place is everlasting quiet. Only that. The contrast first perceived |
| M:22.3 | that can order a mind to do as it sees fit would merely take the | place of God and prove salvation is impossible. What then is left to |
| M:28.6 | asleep and seeing there the vision of Christ's face to take the | place of what they dreamed. The thought of murder is replaced with |
| M:29.7 | knows but His Son, and as he was created, so he is. In confidence I | place you in His hands, and I give thanks for you that this is so. |

| Tx:10.66 | You have nailed yourself to a cross and | placed a crown of thorns upon your own head. Yet you cannot crucify |

| Tx:11.80 | you can never forget Him, for no one can forget what God Himself | placed in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot lose it. A |
| Tx:12.65 | him in everything. The world about him shines with love because God | placed him in Himself where pain is not and love surrounds him |
| Tx:13.12 | can be rewarded only in terms of the belief in which the faith was | placed. Faith makes the power of belief, and where it is invested |
| Tx:13.13 | projection, it has no meaning apart from what you found in it and | placed your faith in. Be faithful unto darkness and you will not see, |
| Tx:13.19 | knowledge, but you cannot change it. Look, then, upon the light He | placed within you and learn that what you feared was there has been |
| Tx:13.33 | value that you set on yourselves, even unto the worth that God has | placed upon you. I love all that He created, and all my faith and my |
| Tx:13.37 | value wholly, and so you do not value it at all. Value is where God | placed it, and the value of what God esteems cannot be judged, for it |
| Tx:13.42 | The Communication Link which God Himself | placed within you, joining your minds with His, cannot be broken. You |
| Tx:13.44 | Can God's Son lose himself in dreams when God has | placed within him the glad call to waken and be glad? He cannot |
| Tx:13.50 | it has not touched, and your dream is sacred to you. That is why God | placed the Holy Spirit in you, where you placed the dream. |
| Tx:13.50 | to you. That is why God placed the Holy Spirit in you, where you | placed the dream. |
| Tx:14.1 | swept away from recognition in the very mind where God Himself has | placed it. If you would but listen and learn how impossible this is! |
| Tx:14.4 | you, for only He knows what God is. Everything else that you have | placed within your mind cannot exist, for what is not in |
| Tx:14.37 | He is given. Your little gifts will vanish on the altar where He has | placed His Own. |
| Tx:14.40 | it there for you. God has not left His altar, though His worshiper | placed other gods upon it. The temple still is holy, for the Presence |
| Tx:15.38 | perfect and immaculate is the holy altar on which your Father has | placed Himself? This you will recognize in the holy instant in which |
| Tx:15.50 | would attempt to substitute one aspect of love for another, you have | placed less value on one and more on the other. You have not only |
| Tx:15.90 | You have no conception of the limits you have | placed on your perception and no idea of all the loveliness that you |
| Tx:17.33 | is that they offer what they defend. What they defend is | placed in them for safekeeping, and as they operate, they bring it to |

| Tx:20.20 | preserved by the ego, whose image it is and which it loves, and | placed outside you in the world. And to this world must you adjust, |
| Tx:21.23 | Be willing for an instant to leave your altars free of what you | placed upon them, and what is really there you cannot fail to see. |

| Tx:27.26 | own mistakes you will not even see. The focus of correction has been | placed outside yourself on one who cannot be a part of you while this |
| Tx:27.83 | did is being done to you. The guilt for what you thought is being | placed outside yourself and on a guilty world which dreams your |
| W1:50.1 | you believe you are sustained by everything but God. Your faith is | placed in the most trivial and insane symbols—pills, money, |

| Tx:18.37 | of my readiness, which is eternal. I need add nothing to His | plan. But to receive it, I must be willing not to substitute my own |
| Tx:18.38 | away the little that is asked. Remember you made guilt and that your | plan for the escape from guilt has been to bring Atonement to it and |
| Tx:18.41 | would have no purpose. For they are all but aspects of the | plan to change your dreams of fear to happy dreams from which you |
| Tx:18.43 | you do not arrange, thousands will rise to Heaven with you. Can you | plan for this? Or could you prepare yourselves for such a function? |

| Tx:20.33 | The | plan is not of you, nor need you be concerned with anything except |
| Tx:20.33 | must enter here to learn its special function in the Holy Spirit's | plan, now that it shares His purpose. And as this purpose is |
| Tx:20.35 | to you. But ask yourself if it is possible that God would have a | plan for your salvation that does not work. Once you accept His plan |

| W1:71.1 | has set up a plan for salvation in opposition to God's. It is this | plan in which you believe. Since it is the opposite of God's, you |
| W1:71.1 | it is the opposite of God's, you also believe that to accept God's | plan in place of the ego's is to be damned. This sounds preposterous, |
| W1:71.1 | of course. Yet after we have considered just what the ego's | plan is, perhaps you will realize that, however preposterous it may |
| W1:71.2 | The ego's | plan for salvation centers around holding grievances. It maintains |
| W1:71.4 | The role assigned to your own mind in this | plan, then, is simply to determine what other than itself must change |
| W1:71.4 | itself must change if you are to be saved. According to this insane | plan, any perceived source of salvation is acceptable, provided that |
| W1:71.5 | Such is the ego's | plan for your salvation. Surely you can see how it is in strict |
| W1:71.6 | God's | plan for salvation works simply because, by following His direction, |
| W1:71.7 | all this? Very simply. The idea for today is the answer. Only God's | plan for salvation will work. There can be no real conflict about |
| W1:71.7 | about this, because there is no possible alternative to God's | plan that will save you. His is the only plan that is certain in its |
| W1:71.7 | alternative to God's plan that will save you. His is the only | plan that is certain in its outcome. His is the only plan that must |
| W1:71.7 | His is the only plan that is certain in its outcome. His is the only | plan that must succeed. |
| W1:71.8 | things are possible to God. Salvation must be yours because of His | plan, which cannot fail. |
| W1:71.9 | two parts, each making equal contribution to the whole. God's | plan for your salvation will work, and other plans will not. Do not |
| W1:71.9 | to free yourself. They have led to depression and anger. But God's | plan will succeed. It will lead to release and joy. |
| W1:71.10 | of the extended practice periods to asking God to reveal His | plan to us. Ask Him very specifically: |
| W1:71.12 | period, and let Him tell you what needs to be done by you in His | plan for your salvation. He will answer you in proportion to your |
| W1:71.13 | In the shorter practice periods tell yourself often that God's | plan for salvation, and only His, will work. Be alert to all |
| W1:71.14 | Holding grievances is the opposite of God's | plan for salvation. And only His plan will work. |
| W1:71.14 | grievances is the opposite of God's plan for salvation. And only His | plan will work. |
| W1:72.1 | While we have recognized that the ego's | plan for salvation is the opposite of God's, we have not yet |
| W1:72.1 | God's, we have not yet emphasized that it is an active attack on His | plan and a deliberate attempt to destroy it. In the attack, God is |
| W1:72.3 | perhaps not so apparent why holding grievances is an attack on God's | plan for salvation. But let us consider the kinds of things which you |
| W1:72.5 | If God is a body, what must His | plan for salvation be? What could it be but death? In trying to |
| W1:72.8 | at the center of your concept of yourself, you are attacking God's | plan for salvation and holding your grievances against Him and His |
| W1:72.10 | see our Self as separate from the body is to end the attack on God's | plan for salvation and to accept it instead. And wherever His plan is |
| W1:72.10 | God's plan for salvation and to accept it instead. And wherever His | plan is accepted, it is accomplished already. |
| W1:72.11 | in the longer practice periods today is to become aware that God's | plan for salvation has already been accomplished in us. To achieve |
| W1:72.11 | acceptance. As long as we attack it, we cannot understand what God's | plan for us is. We are therefore attacking what we do not recognize. |
| W1:72.11 | Now we are going to try to lay judgment aside and ask what God's | plan for us is: |
| W1:72.14 | We have attacked God's | plan for salvation without waiting to hear what it is. We have |
| W1:72.19 | Holding grievances is an attack on God's | plan for salvation. Let me accept it instead. What is salvation, |
| W1:73.8 | that you will salvation for yourself. You will to accept God's | plan because you share in it. You have no will that can really oppose |
| W1:73.10 | begin our longer practice periods with the recognition that God's | plan for salvation, and only His, is wholly in accord with your will. |
| W1:78.6 | him be savior unto you today. Such is his role in God your Father's | plan. |
| W1:78.12 | the day and take the role assigned to us as part of God's salvation | plan, and not our own. Temptation falls away when we allow each one |
| W1:80.1 | that fact, and you are ready to take your rightful place in God's | plan for salvation. |
| W1:86.2 | [71] Only God's | plan for salvation will work. It is senseless for me to search wildly |
| W1:86.2 | about what it is. I will undertake no more idle seeking. Only God's | plan for salvation will work. And I will rejoice because His plan can |
| W1:86.2 | God's plan for salvation will work. And I will rejoice because His | plan can never fail. |
| W1:86.4 | God's | plan for salvation will save me from my perception of this. This is |
| W1:86.4 | save me from my perception of this. This is no exception in God's | plan for my salvation. Let me perceive this only in the light of |
| W1:86.4 | for my salvation. Let me perceive this only in the light of God's | plan for salvation. |
| W1:86.5 | [72] Holding grievances is an attack on God's | plan for salvation. Holding grievances is an attempt to prove that |
| W1:86.5 | for salvation. Holding grievances is an attempt to prove that God's | plan for salvation will not work. Yet only His plan will work. By |
| W1:86.5 | to prove that God's plan for salvation will not work. Yet only His | plan will work. By holding grievances, I am therefore excluding my |
| W1:86.5 | my own best interests in this insane way. I would accept God's | plan for salvation and be happy. |
| W1:89.5 | to have all my illusions be replaced with truth according to God's | plan for my salvation. I would make no exceptions and no substitutes. |
| W1:96.7 | does not exist. Perhaps you hope it can. Yet would you have God's | plan for the release of His dear Son bring pain to him and fail to |

| W1:99.4 | mind and thoughts with Mind and thought which are forever one? What | plan could hold the truth inviolate, yet recognize the need illusions |
| W1:99.4 | and with no touch of pain? What but a thought of God could be this | plan by which the never done is overlooked and sins forgotten which |
| W1:99.5 | The Holy Spirit holds this | plan of God exactly as it was received of Him within the Mind of God |
| W1:99.7 | Salvation is your function with the One to Whom the | plan was given. Now are you entrusted with this plan, along with Him. |
| W1:99.7 | the One to Whom the plan was given. Now are you entrusted with this | plan, along with Him. He has one answer to appearances regardless of |
| W1:99.18 | times you give five minutes to be shared with Him Who shares God's | plan with you. Remind yourself: |
| W1:100.1 | Son completes his Father, so your part in it completes your Father's | plan. Salvation must reverse the mad belief in separate thoughts and |
| W1:100.2 | Will? The part that He has saved for you to take in working out His | plan is given you that you might be restored to what He wills. This |
| W1:100.2 | might be restored to what He wills. This part is as essential to His | plan as to your happiness. Your joy must be complete to let His plan |
| W1:100.2 | His plan as to your happiness. Your joy must be complete to let His | plan be understood by those to whom He sends you. They will see their |
| W1:100.3 | You are indeed essential to God's | plan. Without your joy, His joy is incomplete. Without your smile, |
| W1:100.4 | You are indeed essential to God's | plan. Just as your light increases every light that shines in Heaven, |
| W1:100.4 | to let their sorrows go and take their place beside you in God's | plan. God's messengers are joyous, and their joy heals sorrow and |
| W1:100.5 | For if we do, we fail to take the part that is essential to God's | plan as well as to our vision. Sadness is the sign that you would |
| W1:100.8 | belief that sacrifice is asked. You but receive according to God's | plan and never lose or sacrifice or die. |
| W1:100.10 | to you is God Himself? He will be there. You are essential to His | plan. You are His messenger today. And you must find what He would |
| W1:100.11 | you answer every time you tell yourself you are essential to God's | plan for the salvation of the world. |
| W1:113.3 | Whose knowledge still remains Within my mind, I see God's perfect | plan For my salvation perfectly fulfilled. |
| W1:114.3 | [98] I will accept my part in God's | plan for salvation. What can my function be but to accept the Word of |
| W1:114.7 | I will accept my part in God's | plan for salvation. |
| W1:115.3 | [100] My part is essential to God's | plan for salvation. I am essential to the plan of God for the |
| W1:115.3 | part is essential to God's plan for salvation. I am essential to the | plan of God for the salvation of the world. For He gave me His plan |
| W1:115.3 | the plan of God for the salvation of the world. For He gave me His | plan that I might save the world. |
| W1:115.7 | My part is essential to God's | plan for salvation. |
| W1:122.5 | Seek for it no more. You will not find another one instead. God's | plan for your salvation cannot change, nor can it fail. Be thankful |
| W1:122.6 | Forgive and be forgiven. As you give, you will receive. There is no | plan but this for the salvation of the Son of God. Let us today |
| W1:125.2 | world will change through you. No other means can save it, for God's | plan is simply this: the Son of God is free to save himself, given |
| W1:135.2 | And it is this you do when you attempt to | plan the future, activate the past, or organize the present as you |
| W1:135.12 | A healed mind does not | plan. It carries out the plans which it receives through listening to |
| W1:135.12 | its progress to accomplishment of any goal which serves the greater | plan established for the good of everyone. |
| W1:135.13 | A healed mind is relieved from the belief that it must | plan, although it cannot know the outcome which is best, the means by |
| W1:135.13 | by which it is achieved, nor how to recognize the problem that the | plan is made to solve. It must misuse the body in its plans until it |
| W1:135.14 | make the body sick. It is not free to be a means of helping in a | plan which far exceeds its own protection and which needs its service |
| W1:135.19 | Whose only purpose is your good? Perhaps you have misunderstood His | plan, for He would never offer pain to you. But your defenses did not |
| W1:135.21 | you on in ways appointed for your happiness according to the ancient | plan begun when time was born. Your followers will join their light |
| W1:135.23 | the truth from entering our minds. Today we will receive instead of | plan, that we may give instead of organize. And we are given truly, |
| W1:135.27 | now you come without defense to learn the part for you within the | plan of God. What little plans or magical beliefs can still have |
| W1:136.4 | as real? All this cannot be done unconsciously. But afterwards your | plan requires that you must forget you made it, so it seems to be |
| W1:136.8 | makes you weak and brings you suffering. It is a choice you make, a | plan you lay when for an instant truth arises in your own deluded |
| W1:136.13 | nor seek to prove how pitiful and futile are your attempts to | plan defenses which would alter it. Truth merely wants to give you |
| W1:153.18 | He will not make this possible for you who chose to carry out His | plan for the salvation of the world and yours? |
| W1:154.1 | can we know what role is best for us; what we can do within a larger | plan we cannot see in its entirety. Our part is cast in Heaven, not |

| W1:166.10 | not oppose. It merely is. It is not God you have imprisoned in your | plan to lose your Self. He does not know about a plan so alien to His |
| W1:166.10 | imprisoned in your plan to lose your Self. He does not know about a | plan so alien to His Will. There was a need He did not understand, to |
| W1:186.1 | on earth as well as Heaven. It unites all wills on earth in Heaven's | plan to save the world, restoring it to Heaven's peace. |
| W1:186.5 | is one way and only one to be released from the imprisonment your | plan to prove the false is true has brought to you. Accept the plan |
| W1:186.5 | your plan to prove the false is true has brought to you. Accept the | plan you did not make instead. Judge not your value to it. If God's |
| W1:186.11 | All of them point to one goal, and one you can attain. Your | plan may be impossible, but God's can never fail because He is its |
| W1:198.4 | from death. How could there be another way, when this one is the | plan of God Himself? And why would you oppose it, quarrel with it, |
| W1:199.4 | to the all-inclusive goal that it must reach according to God's | plan. |
| W2:I.10 | be still and let all things be healed. We will accept the way God's | plan will end, as we received the way it started. Now it is complete. |
| W2:294.2 | neither good nor bad. Let me, then, use this dream to help Your | plan that we awaken from all dreams we made. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | God's Final Judgment is as merciful as every step in His appointed | plan to bless His Son and call him to return to the eternal peace He |
| W2:317.1 | destiny. But when I willingly and gladly go the way my Father's | plan appointed me to go, then will I recognize salvation is already |
| W2:318.1 | In me, God's holy Son, are reconciled all parts of Heaven's | plan to save the world. What could conflict when all the parts have |

| W2:326.1 | power to create like You. And as it is in Heaven, so on earth. Your | plan I follow here, and at the end I know that You will gather Your |
| W2:331.1 | to believe Your Son could cause himself to suffer! Could he make a | plan for his damnation and be left without a certain way to his |
| W2:338.2 | Your | plan is sure, my Father—only Yours. All other plans will fail. And |

| W1:151.8 | Whom He has judged can only laugh at guilt, unwilling now to | play with toys of sin, unheeding of the body's witnesses before the |
| W1:153.6 | so great attack is folly or a silly game a tired child might | play when he becomes too sleepy to remember what he wants. |
| W1:153.8 | We will not | play such childish games today. For our true purpose is to save the |
| W1:153.12 | Salvation can be thought of as a game that happy children | play. It was designed by One Who loves His children, and Who would |

| W1:169.10 | Suffice it, then, that you have work to do to | play your part. The ending must remain obscure to you until your part |
| W1:182.2 | we speak. Yet some try to put by their suffering in games they | play to occupy their time and keep their sadness from them. Others |
| W1:183.10 | and offer it your own remembering. You can accept today the part you | play in its salvation and your own as well, and both can be |
| W1:185.2 | No one can mean these words and not be healed. He cannot | play with dreams nor think he is himself a dream. He cannot make a |
| W1:191.4 | Yet what is it except a game you | play in which identity can be denied? You are as God created you. All |
| W1:191.11 | you in earth and Heaven. There is nothing that you cannot do. You | play the game of death, of being helpless, pitifully tied to |
| W2:WIS.4 | yet what sin perceives is but a childish game. The Son of God may | play he has become a body, prey to evil and to guilt, with but a |

| Tx:27.68 | cannot doubt his dreams' reality because he does not see the part he | plays in making them and making them seem real. |
| W1:121.13 | Do not forget throughout the day the role forgiveness | plays in bringing happiness to every unforgiving mind, with yours |

| M:9.1 | Remember that no one is where he is by accident, and chance | plays no part in God's plan. It is most unlikely that changes in his |
| M:27.7 | assignment could be stated thus: accept no compromise in which death | plays a part. Do not believe in cruelty nor let attack conceal the |

| Tx:29.26 | The fear is seen within, without, or both. Or it can be disguised in | pleasant form. But never is it absent from the dream, for fear is the |
| W1:12.6 | time intervals between applying today's idea to what you think is | pleasant and what you think is unpleasant. For the purposes of these |
| W1:17.8 | no distinction between what you believe to be animate or inanimate, | pleasant or unpleasant. Regardless of what you may believe, you do |

| Tx:27.55 | sound. Except for this, the witnesses of sin are all alike. Call | pleasure pain, and it will hurt. Call pain a pleasure, and the pain |

| Tx:27.59 | miracles to bless the world, a tiny stab of pain, a little worldly | pleasure, and the throes of death itself are but a single sound—a |
| Tx:27.77 | main concern. Its comfort is its guiding rule. It tries to look for | pleasure and avoid the things that would be hurtful. Above all, it |
| Tx:28.54 | is not. It does not seek to make of pain a joy and look for lasting | pleasure in the dust. It does not tell you what its purpose is and |
| Tx:29.27 | of every dream, for they are made of fear. The thin disguise of | pleasure and of joy in which they may be wrapped but slightly veils |

| W1:136.19 | there will be no sense of feeling ill or feeling well, of pain or | pleasure. No response at all is in the mind to what the body does. |
| W2:339.1 | No one desires pain. But he can think that pain is | pleasure. No one would avoid his happiness. But he can think that joy |

point (116) | ||
| Tx:1.60 | “God is not mocked” is not a warning but a reassurance on this | point. God would be mocked if any of His creations lacked holiness. |
| Tx:1.89 | forgiveness. You never really wanted peace before, so there was no | point in being told how to achieve it. No learning is acquired by |
| Tx:1.94 | It corrects errors because they are errors. Thus, the next | point to remember about miracles is: |
| Tx:2.16 | seem to be of greater magnitude than others. But remember the first | point in this course—that there is no order of difficulty in |
| Tx:2.34 | which actually result from level confusion. However, the main | point to be understood from this section is that you can defend truth |
| Tx:2.41 | in time, but the whole Atonement stands at time's end. At this | point, the bridge of the return has been built. |
| Tx:2.93 | the day and somewhat inconsistently even then. You may feel at this | point that it would take a miracle to enable you to do this, which is |
| Tx:2.110 | At this | point, the will can begin to look with love on its own creations |
| Tx:3.6 | 3. Another way of stating the above | point is: Never confuse right- with wrong-mindedness. Responding to |
| Tx:3.11 | There is another | point which must be perfectly clear before any residual fear which |
| Tx:3.11 | did not establish the Atonement. The resurrection did. This is a | point which many very sincere Christians have misunderstood. No one |
| Tx:3.11 | make this mistake. If the crucifixion is seen from an upside-down | point of view, it does appear as if God permitted and even encouraged |
| Tx:3.72 | Every system of thought must have a starting | point. It begins with either a making or a creating, a difference |
| Tx:3.77 | of your own creation. Your minds are split with your Souls on this | point, and there is no resolution while you believe the one thing |
| Tx:3.79 | which cannot be shaken because the light is in it. Your starting | point is truth, and you must return to this beginning. Much has been |
| Tx:4.14 | or think or wish or make is necessary to establish your worth. This | point is not debatable except in delusions. Your ego is never at |
| Tx:4.14 | Your Soul is never at stake because He did. Any confusion on this | point is a delusion and no form of devotion is possible as long as |
| Tx:4.35 | birth, because no one maintains that the ego existed before that | point in time. The religiously ego-oriented believe that the Soul |
| Tx:4.45 | from the superconscious are unacceptable to it because they clearly | point to the nonexistence of the ego itself. The ego therefore |
| Tx:4.72 | itself insisted that it is identified with the body, so there is no | point in turning to it for protection. The ego has no real answer to |
| Tx:5.16 | There is a | point at which sufficient quantitative changes produce real |
| Tx:5.16 | quantitative changes produce real qualitative differences. The next | point requires real understanding, because it is the point at which |
| Tx:5.16 | The next point requires real understanding, because it is the | point at which the shift occurs. Finally, it points the way beyond |
| Tx:5.51 | them without interference by the ego, so we can clarify an earlier | point. We said that you will one day teach as much as you learn and |
| Tx:5.86 | advantages. First, it recognizes that man can be fixated at a | point in development which does not accord with a point in time. This |

| Tx:5.87 | as he perceived the situation. Therefore, he emphasized that the | point in development at which the mind is fixated is more real to |
| Tx:5.95 | placed it there. Your part is merely to return your thinking to the | point at which the error was made and give it over to the Atonement |
| Tx:6.53 | In an impossible situation, you can develop your abilities to the | point where they can get you out of it. You have a Guide to how to |
| Tx:6.69 | step for a very long time, experiencing very acute conflict. At this | point, many try to accept the conflict rather than take the next step |
| Tx:6.73 | At this | point, the equality of “having” and “being” is not yet perceived. |
| Tx:6.80 | decision, it is clearly not the final one. It is clear at this | point that the lack of order of difficulty in miracles has not yet |
| Tx:6.83 | it promotes different moods. The Holy Spirit never varies on this | point, and so the one mood He engenders is joy. He protects it by |
| Tx:7.108 | cannot adapt to it, nor can he adapt it to him. There is no | point in trying. A Son of God is happy only when he knows he is with |
| Tx:8.72 | This is a particularly appealing argument from the ego's | point of view because it obscures the obvious attack which underlies |
| Tx:8.76 | to analyze them at all. If the data are meaningless, there is no | point in considering them. The function of truth is to collect data |
| Tx:8.76 | The function of truth is to collect data which are true. There is no | point in trying to make sense out of meaningless data. Any way you |
| Tx:9.1 | makes no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and right and good to | point out errors and “correct” them. This makes perfect sense to the |

| Tx:9.43 | range precludes this. You can only go beyond it, look back from a | point where sanity exists, and see the contrast. Only by this |
| Tx:11.45 | out all reinforcement is in yourself. For you are always the first | point of your attack, and if this has never been, it has no |
| Tx:12.22 | answer but will give up insanity.] For His answer is the reference | point beyond illusions from which you can look back on them and see |
| Tx:12.27 | it dictates reactions to those you meet now from a past reference | point, obscuring their present reality. In effect, if you follow the |
| Tx:12.46 | consider it “natural” to use your past experience as the reference | point from which to judge the present. Yet this is unnatural because |
| Tx:12.63 | because you have misjudged yourself. From such a twisted reference | point what could you see? All vision starts with the perceiver who |
| Tx:12.65 | the instant he perceives the arms of love around him. And from this | point of safety, he looks quietly about him and recognizes that the |
| Tx:14.26 | is not possible to convince the unknowing that they know. From their | point of view, it is not true. Yet it is true because God knows it. |
| Tx:14.26 | are. To God, unknowing is impossible. It is therefore not a | point of view at all but merely a belief in something that does not |
| Tx:14.26 | themselves as they were not created. Their creation was not a | point of view, but rather a certainty. Uncertainty brought to |
| Tx:16.75 | the Holy Spirit must teach through comparisons and uses opposites to | point to truth. The holy instant is the opposite of the ego's fixed |
| Tx:17.45 | to make no sense. Many relationships have been broken off at this | point, and the pursuit of the old goal reestablished in another |
| Tx:17.47 | for its goal. As these two contemplate their relationship from the | point of view of this new purpose, they are inevitably appalled. |
| Tx:17.57 | their universal application. Therefore it is essential at this | point to use them in each situation separately, until you can more |
| Tx:17.60 | be used to meet the goal. The false becomes the useless from this | point of view. The situation now has meaning, but only because the |
| Tx:20.42 | You look upon each holy instant as a different | point in time. It never changes. All that it ever held or will ever |
| Tx:21.36 | of the world, desiring to place its power elsewhere should another | point of view be given them. The miracles which follow this decision |
| Tx:22.21 | yourself and an illusion of yourself. Not both, but one. There is no | point in trying to avoid this one decision. It must be made. Faith |
| Tx:23.31 | prefer. This is their purpose; they were made for this. There is no | point in asking what they mean. That is apparent. The means of |
| Tx:23.39 | thought. The steps to chaos do follow neatly from their starting | point. Each is a different form in the progression of truth's |
| Tx:25.61 | this is true. This is the rock on which salvation rests, the vantage | point from which the Holy Spirit gives meaning and direction to the |
| Tx:26.30 | Nothing in between is possible. There are two teachers only, who | point in different ways. And you will go along the way your chosen |
| Tx:27.36 | it is seen in different ways. And what would be an answer from one | point of view is not an answer in another light. You are in conflict. |
| Tx:27.38 | It does not ask a question to be answered, but only to restate its | point of view. All questions asked within this world are but a way of |
| Tx:28.55 | It is indeed a senseless | point of view to hold responsible for sight a thing that cannot see |
| Tx:29.3 | You shared a qualified entente in which a clause of separation was a | point on which you both agreed to keep intact. And violating this was |
| Tx:30.21 | Now you have reached the turning | point, because it has occurred to you that you will gain if what you |
| Tx:30.21 | that you will gain if what you have decided is not so. Until this | point is reached, you will believe your happiness depends on being |
| Tx:31.35 | they could have learned their greatest lesson. All must reach this | point and go beyond it. It is true indeed there is no choice at all |
| Tx:31.36 | with this. Seek not another signpost in the world which seems to | point to still another road. No longer look for hope where there is |
| Tx:31.36 | what you have learned to what is yet to learn. For from this lowest | point will learning lead to heights of happiness in which you see the |
| Tx:31.40 | power to make when you have seen the real alternatives. Until that | point is reached, you have no choice, and you can but decide how you |
| W1:3.2 | The | point of the exercises is to help you clear your mind of all past |
| W1:9.1 | to you as yet. However, understanding is not necessary at this | point. In fact, the recognition that you do not understand is a |
| W1:13.8 | the “enemy.” You are not expected to believe the statement at this | point and will probably try to dismiss it as preposterous. Note |
| W1:23.2 | learn that it is these thoughts which you do not want. There is no | point in lamenting the world. There is no point in trying to change |
| W1:23.2 | do not want. There is no point in lamenting the world. There is no | point in trying to change the world. It is incapable of change |
| W1:23.2 | of change because it is merely an effect. But there is indeed a | point in changing your thoughts about the world. Here you are |
| W1:29.2 | You will probably find this idea very difficult to grasp at this | point. You may find it silly, irreverent, senseless, funny, and even |
| W1:42.7 | have let obviously irrelevant thoughts intrude. You may also reach a | point where no thoughts at all seem to come to mind. If such |
| W1:R1.3 | in the practice periods. Rather, try merely to emphasize the central | point and think about it as part of your review of the idea to which |
| W1:73.6 | You know it is not so. You cannot want this for yourself. There is a | point beyond which illusions cannot go. |
| W1:93.3 | Today we question this, not from the | point of view of what you think, but from a very different reference |
| W1:93.3 | point of view of what you think, but from a very different reference | point from which such idle thoughts are meaningless. These thoughts |
| W1:95.4 | of learning in which you are at present. It is difficult at this | point not to allow your mind to wander if it undertakes extended |
| W1:122.10 | is guaranteed. Begin in hopefulness, for we have reached the turning | point at which the road becomes far easier. And now the way is short |
| W1:124.2 | and death give place to everlasting life. Our shining footprints | point the way to truth, for God is our Companion as we walk the world |
| W1:126.3 | no gain to you directly. You give charity to one unworthy merely to | point out that you are better, on a higher plane than he whom you |

| W1:157.2 | This is another crucial turning | point in the curriculum. We add a new dimension now—a fresh |
| W1:158.4 | end your doubting has been set. For we but see the journey from the | point at which it ended, looking back on it, imagining we make it |

| W1:I2.1 | Our next few lessons make a special | point of firming up your willingness to make your weak commitment |
| W1:184.7 | short of meaning. In its proper place, it serves but as a starting | point from which another kind of learning can begin, a new perception |
| W1:186.11 | its messages. They will not change nor be in conflict. All of them | point to one goal, and one you can attain. Your plan may be |
| W1:187.1 | unless he has. In fact, giving is proof of having. We have made this | point before. What seems to make it hard to credit is not this. No |
| W1:188.6 | thoughts you think with Him. They recognize their home. And they | point surely to their Source where God the Father and the Son are one. |
| W1:189.8 | and immediate response. Ask and receive. But do not make demands nor | point the road to God by which He should appear to you. The way to |
| W1:198.3 | it is a dream of waking. It is not itself the truth. Yet does it | point to where the truth must be and gives direction with the |
| W1:200.2 | This is the final | point to which each one must come at last, to lay aside all hope of |
| W2:WF.3 | for anything that would appear to pose a contradiction to its | point of view. |
| W2:266.2 | we lose the way to Him, when He has filled the world with those who | point to Him and given us the sight to look on them? |
| M:3.1 | so there is no one whom he cannot teach. However, from a practical | point of view, he cannot meet everyone, nor can everyone find him. |

| Tx:5.8 | the stronger they become. Everything is an idea. How, then, is it | possible that giving and losing can be meaningfully associated? |
| Tx:5.12 | comes close enough to One-Mindedness that transfer to it is at last | possible. Transfer depends on common elements in the old learning and |
| Tx:5.20 | It is | possible even in this world to hear only that Voice and no other. It |
| Tx:5.22 | have chosen to be in a state of opposition in which opposites are | possible. As a result, there are choices which you must make. In the |
| Tx:5.44 | however, below knowledge even though it can grow towards it. It is | possible, with great effort, to understand someone else to some |
| Tx:5.50 | as a pure act of sharing. That is what is meant when we said it is | possible even in this world to listen to one voice. If you are part |
| Tx:5.62 | for it. Listening to the ego's voice means that you believe it is | possible to attack God. You believe that a part of Him has been torn |
| Tx:5.70 | The continuing will to remain separated is the only | possible reason for continuing guilt feelings. We have said this |
| Tx:5.72 | accept this freedom and will oppose your free decision at every | possible moment and in every possible way. And as its maker, you |
| Tx:5.72 | will oppose your free decision at every possible moment and in every | possible way. And as its maker, you recognize what it can do because |
| Tx:6.43 | Safety is the complete relinquishment of attack. No compromise is | possible in this. Teach attack in any form, and you have learned it, |
| Tx:6.52 | in an impossible situation, you believed that the impossible was | possible. |
| Tx:6.53 | true of anything that God created, but it is the kindest solution | possible to what you have made. In an impossible situation, you can |
| Tx:6.54 | You are in an impossible situation only because you thought it was | possible to be in one. You would be in an impossible situation if God |
| Tx:6.55 | God created is faithful to His laws. Fidelity to other laws is also | possible, however, not because the laws are true, but because you |
| Tx:6.81 | but you have started on this way by realizing that only one way is | possible. You do not yet realize this consistently, and so your |
| Tx:7.4 | it cannot understand that to be like another means that no deals are | possible. To gain you must give, not bargain. To bargain is to limit |
| Tx:7.28 | come from it. It is the belief that conflicting interests are | possible, and therefore you have accepted the impossible as true. How |
| Tx:7.32 | is and perceived as a means for establishing it. To believe this is | possible is to believe you can do it. This can only be the voice of |
| Tx:7.68 | Yet because God's Will is unchangeable, no real conflict of will is | possible. This is the Holy Spirit's perfectly consistent teaching. |
| Tx:7.70 | to deny part of the Sonship as it is to love it in part. Nor is it | possible to love it totally at times. You cannot be totally committed |
| Tx:7.98 | at the ego's premises but not at their logical outcome. Is it not | possible that you have done the same thing with the premises of God? |
| Tx:7.102 | of God's Will can be better for you. You also believe that it is | possible to do the opposite of God's Will. Therefore, you believe |
| Tx:8.7 | must be fully recognized before a real change in direction becomes | possible. You cannot learn simultaneously from two teachers who are |
| Tx:8.7 | entirely different things in entirely different ways, which might be | possible except for the crucial fact that both are teaching you about |
| Tx:8.9 | Is there any | possible reason for choosing a teacher such as this? Does the total |
| Tx:8.31 | If it were not so, the Sons of God would be unequal. All things are | possible through our joint will, but my will alone cannot help you. |
| Tx:8.68 | of what is not true. Free your minds from the belief that this is | possible. In its complete impossibility and your full awareness of |
| Tx:8.70 | relationships have any meaning are those in which change is | possible. There is no difference between the whole and the part where |
| Tx:8.71 | one to the other, making the concept of both health and sickness | possible. The ego makes a fundamental confusion between means and |
| Tx:8.76 | recognize their nothingness, but it is not necessary to examine all | possible outcomes to which premises give rise to judge them truly. |
| Tx:8.90 | occurred unless the mind were already profoundly split, making it | possible for the mind to be afraid of what it really is. It is |
| Tx:8.92 | to force an alien will upon you. He is merely making every | possible effort, within the limits you impose on Him, to re-establish |
| Tx:8.102 | not require belief, but it does require acceptance. It is indeed | possible for you to deny facts, although it is impossible for you to |
| Tx:8.104 | and fear cannot be created. As long as you believe that fear is | possible, you will not create. Opposing orders of reality make |
| Tx:8.105 | Remember, then, that God's Will is already | possible and nothing else will ever be. This is the simple acceptance |
| Tx:8.109 | by the Holy Spirit will ever be one which would increase fear. It is | possible that His answer will not be heard at all. It is impossible, |
| Tx:8.117 | receive and have priced it by what you give. To believe that it is | possible to get much for little is to believe that you can bargain |
| Tx:8.117 | is to accept, not to get. It is impossible not to have, but it is | possible not to know you have. The recognition of having is the |
| Tx:9.6 | You cannot correct yourself. Is it | possible, then, for you to correct another? Yet you can see him truly |
| Tx:9.6 | for you to correct another? Yet you can see him truly because it is | possible for you to see yourself truly. It is not up to you to change |
| Tx:9.7 | to correct a brother means that you believe correction by you is | possible, and this can only be the arrogance of the ego. Correction |
| Tx:9.38 | means to find it? If He wills you to have it, He must have made it | possible and very easy to obtain it. Your brothers are everywhere. |
| Tx:9.38 | delay of joy is needless. God wills you perfect happiness now. Is it | possible that this is not also your will? And is it possible that |
| Tx:9.38 | now. Is it possible that this is not also your will? And is it | possible that this is not also the will of your brothers? |
| Tx:9.53 | it is true. Littleness and grandeur cannot co-exist, nor is it | possible for them to alternate in your awareness. Littleness and |
| Tx:9.65 | of what you awakened to were violated while you slept. Is it not | possible that you merely shifted from one dream to another, without |
| Tx:9.66 | hear the Holy Spirit, you merely feel better because loving seems | possible to you, but you do not remember yet that it once was so. And |
| Tx:9.66 | in this remembering that you will know it can be so again. What is | possible has not yet been accomplished. Yet what has once been is so |
| Tx:10.8 | Waiting is | possible only in time, but time has no meaning. You who made delay |
| Tx:10.13 | yourself and therefore not yours. In this interpretation, it is | possible for God's Will and yours to conflict. God then may seem to |
| Tx:10.50 | by learning what fear is, can you finally learn to distinguish the | possible from the impossible and the false from the true. According |
| Tx:10.68 | does not exist has no size and no measure. To God all things are | possible. And to Christ it is given to be like the Father. |
| Tx:10.84 | in yourself, you are deceived in your Father in Whom no deceit is | possible. |
| Tx:11.51 | depressing indeed, it is merely ridiculous if you look at it. Is it | possible that the way to achieve a goal is not to attain it? Resign |
| Tx:12.60 | kind of seeing and depends on what you cherish. The sight of one is | possible because you have denied the other. Both are not true, yet |
| Tx:13.3 | has many elements in common with knowledge, making transfer to it | possible. Yet the last step must be taken by God because the last |
| Tx:13.5 | For light must come into the darkened world to make Christ's vision | possible even here. Help Him to give His gift of light to all who |
| Tx:13.38 | would be to doubt that His mission will be fulfilled. How is this | possible, when His mission is of God? |
| Tx:13.43 | learn salvation, because you will learn how to save. It will not be | possible to exempt yourself from what the Holy Spirit wills to teach |
| Tx:13.52 | the task of sharing what cannot be shared. And while you think it | possible to learn to do this, you will not believe all that is |
| Tx:13.52 | it possible to learn to do this, you will not believe all that is | possible to learn to do. |
| Tx:14.5 | with all the lonely ones who denied Him with you? God makes this | possible. Would you deny His yearning to be known? You yearn for Him, |
| Tx:14.22 | Yet if one means nothing and the other everything, only that one is | possible for purposes of communication. The other but interferes with |
| Tx:14.26 | It is not | possible to convince the unknowing that they know. From their point |
| Tx:14.48 | This is not difficult to understand, once you conceive of them as | possible at all. What is more difficult to grasp is the lack of order |
| Tx:14.50 | ego is chaos, and if it were all of you, no order at all would be | possible. Yet though the order which you impose upon your minds |
| Tx:15.41 | that makes the holy instant what it is. You believe that it is | possible to harbor thoughts you would not share and that salvation |
| Tx:15.84 | then, what seems to you to be impossible to Him Who knows it must be | possible because it is the Will of God. And let Him Whose teaching is |
| Tx:15.86 | Our task is but to continue as fast as | possible the necessary process of looking straight at all the |
| Tx:15.95 | It is | possible to do this all at once because there is but one shift in |
| Tx:15.95 | they go together. The idea is simply this—you believe that it is | possible to be host to the ego or hostage to God. This is the choice |
| Tx:16.33 | Love is not an illusion. It is a fact. Where disillusionment is | possible, there was not love but hate. For hate is an illusion, and |
| Tx:16.34 | love be an illusion to you. And then the only choice which remains | possible is which illusion you prefer. There is no conflict in the |
| Tx:16.42 | you. Only in time does interference in God's completion seem to be | possible. The bridge that He would carry you across lifts you from |
| Tx:16.54 | content and love has lost its meaning. Would you want this to be | possible, even apart from its evident impossibility? For if it were |
| Tx:16.54 | possible, even apart from its evident impossibility? For if it were | possible, you would have made yourself helpless. God is not angry. He |
| Tx:16.58 | as only what it is. For only fantasies made confusion in choosing | possible, and they are totally unreal. This year is thus the time to |
| Tx:16.65 | because you realize it is delay and that escape from pain is really | possible. Find hope and comfort rather than despair in this: You |
| Tx:16.80 | and to resolve all problems, be they perceived as great or small, | possible or impossible. There is nothing that will not give place to |
| Tx:17.10 | nor shadings, no differences, no variations which made perception | possible will occur. The perception of the real world will be so |
| Tx:17.28 | In this world it is impossible to create, yet it is | possible to make happy. We have said repeatedly that the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:17.65 | the solution to the problem is inherent in its meaning. Is it not | possible that all your problems have been solved, but you have |
| Tx:18.28 | Each instant that we spend together will teach you that this goal is | possible and will strengthen your desire to reach it. And in your |
| Tx:18.35 | for what they are. Your willingness is needed only to make it | possible to teach you what they are. If you maintain you are unworthy |
| Tx:18.40 | for you, it is because you have become the arbiter of what is | possible and remain unwilling to give place to One Who knows. The |
| Tx:18.40 | in miracles is centered on this. Everything God wills is not only | possible but has already happened. And that is why the past has gone. |
| Tx:18.43 | this? Or could you prepare yourselves for such a function? Yet it is | possible because God wills it. Nor will He change His Mind about it. |
| Tx:18.46 | to deal with it alone. Never believe that this is necessary or even | possible. Yet just as this is impossible, so is it equally impossible |
| Tx:18.48 | myself that I may share it with my brother, whom I love. It is not | possible that I can have it without him, or he without me. Yet it is |
| Tx:18.48 | that I can have it without him, or he without me. Yet it is wholly | possible for us to share it now. And so I choose this instant as the |
| Tx:18.51 | to the mind the properties of the body does separation seem to be | possible. And it is mind that seems to be fragmented and private and |
| Tx:18.57 | differently and to have separated Himself from His Son to make this | possible. He would have had to create different things and to |
| Tx:18.61 | of the body and of the questioning whether or not all this is | possible. |
| Tx:18.62 | It is | possible because you want it. The sudden expansion of the self which |
| Tx:19.6 | this divided goal has given both an equal reality, which could be | possible only if the mind is limited to the body and divided into |
| Tx:19.17 | with “sin,” and it is this distinction which makes salvation | possible. For error can be corrected, and the wrong made right. But |
| Tx:19.17 | error can be corrected, and the wrong made right. But sin, were it | possible, would be irreversible. The belief in sin is necessarily |
| Tx:19.22 | impossible to have faith in sin, for sin is faithlessness. Yet it is | possible to have faith that a mistake can be corrected. |
| Tx:19.26 | The ego does not think it | possible that love, not fear, is really called upon by sin and always |
| Tx:19.67 | obstacles you raise to freedom and bar my way to you. Yet it is not | possible to keep away One Who is there already. And in Him it is |
| Tx:19.67 | not possible to keep away One Who is there already. And in Him it is | possible that our communion, where we are joined already, will be the |
| Tx:19.74 | your messages of hate and free yourself. And to convince you this is | possible, it bids the body search for pain in attack upon another, |
| Tx:19.99 | Nor is it | possible to look on this too soon. This is the place to which |
| Tx:20.30 | share. What God has given follows His laws and His alone. Nor is it | possible for those who follow them to suffer the results of any other |
| Tx:20.35 | Perhaps this seems impossible to you. But ask yourself if it is | possible that God would have a plan for your salvation that does not |
| Tx:20.52 | mad idea of making your relationship with God unholy seemed to be | possible, all your relationships were made meaningless. In that |
| Tx:20.60 | your wanting of the purpose has been shaken. For if a goal is | possible to reach, the means to do so must be possible as well. |
| Tx:20.60 | For if a goal is possible to reach, the means to do so must be | possible as well. |
| Tx:20.66 | for it was given him to see, as was the vision which made his seeing | possible. |
| Tx:20.75 | Only two purposes are | possible. And one is sin, the other holiness. Nothing is in between, |
| Tx:21.10 | Within it everything is joined in perfect continuity. Nor is it | possible to imagine that anything could be outside, for there is |
| Tx:21.17 | to find himself by chance or accident. No accident nor chance is | possible within the universe as God created it, outside of which is |
| Tx:21.20 | separation for salvation. All that the ego is, is an idea that it is | possible that things should happen to the Son of God without his will |
| Tx:21.23 | recognition comes of vision and suspended judgment. Then only is it | possible to look within and see what must be there plainly in sight |
| Tx:21.24 | of wanting, and therefore of faith, to make its goals seem real and | possible. Faith in the unreal leads to adjustments of reality to make |
| Tx:21.39 | one is but the sign the other has disappeared from sight. Nor is it | possible that what gives light be one with what depends on darkness |
| Tx:21.49 | Yet it can show you the conditions in which awareness of reality is | possible or those where it could never be. |
| Tx:21.89 | answer the final question. Your answer to the others has made it | possible to help you be but partially insane. And yet it is the final |
| Tx:22.13 | Nothing but what is part of Him is worthy of being joined. Nor is it | possible that anything not part of Him can join. Communication must |
| Tx:22.17 | is senseless, for how could joy be found in misery? All that is | possible in the dark world of misery is to select some aspects out of |
| Tx:22.20 | wills can be impossible, the means for its attainment are more than | possible. They must be there, and you must have them. |
| Tx:22.21 | no hope of ever being done. You know what your Creator wills is | possible, but what you made believes it is not so. Now must you |
| Tx:22.24 | fundamental illusion we have seen many times before. Only if it were | possible the Son of God could leave his Father's Mind, make himself |
| Tx:22.24 | Mind, make himself different, and oppose His Will, would it be | possible that the self he made and all it made should be his master. |
| Tx:22.25 | only if you would believe His Son could be His enemy does it seem | possible that what you made is yours. You would condemn His joy to |
| Tx:22.26 | to look upon your savior as your enemy and recognize him. Yet it is | possible to recognize him for what he is if God would have it so. |
| Tx:22.29 | of its undoing. For reason and the ego are contradictory. Nor is it | possible for them to co-exist in your awareness. And reason's goal is |
| Tx:22.51 | for it where he believes it is and can be found. He will believe it | possible of mind or body, and he will make the other serve his choice |
| Tx:22.62 | and all were separate from your Creator. For only then would it be | possible to attack a part of the creation without the whole, the Son |
| Tx:23.8 | is this a victory that you would want? The death of God, if it were | possible, would be your death. Is this a victory? The ego always |
| Tx:23.8 | always marches to defeat because it thinks that triumph over you is | possible. And God thinks otherwise. This is no war—only the mad |
| Tx:23.8 | This is the conflict's purpose. And to those who think that it is | possible, the means seem real. |
| Tx:23.34 | like these can be believed? There is a strange device that makes it | possible. Nor is it unfamiliar; we have seen how it appears to |
| Tx:23.38 | govern all illusions. Their forms conflict, making it seem quite | possible to value some above the others. Yet each one rests as surely |
| Tx:23.40 | the twisted stairway that leads from Heaven. Yet any instant it is | possible to have all this undone. How can you know whether you chose |
| Tx:23.44 | Yet it seems difficult to those who still believe that compromise is | possible. They do not see that, if it is, salvation is attack. Yet it |
| Tx:23.44 | it has come. Forgiveness cannot be withheld a little. Nor is it | possible to attack for this and love for that and understand |
| Tx:24.8 | Would it be | possible for you to hate your brother if you were like him? Could you |
| Tx:24.24 | The hope of specialness makes it seem | possible God made the body as the prison-house which keeps His Son |
| Tx:24.29 | will never be and that you will oppose His Will forever. Nor is it | possible the two can ever be the same while specialness stands like a |
| Tx:24.38 | must be “no.” A sinless brother is its enemy, while sin, if it were | possible, would be its friend. Your brother's sins would justify |
| Tx:24.40 | of joy as you conceive it. What you wish is true for you. Nor is it | possible that you can wish for something and lack faith that it is |
| Tx:24.61 | judgment makes no sense at all, for only what His Father wills is | possible, and there is no alternative for Him to see. Out of His lack |
| Tx:25.30 | sin's perception must have been wrong. And thus is change made | possible. The Holy Spirit too sees what He sees as far beyond the |
| Tx:25.44 | of God upon your eyes and brings the gift of light that makes sight | possible. |
| Tx:25.50 | God Himself. The world is safe from love to everyone who thinks sin | possible. Nor will it change. Yet is it possible what God created not |
| Tx:25.50 | to everyone who thinks sin possible. Nor will it change. Yet is it | possible what God created not should share the attributes of His |
| Tx:25.51 | Heaven. How could it be that hell and Heaven are the same? And is it | possible that what He did not will cannot be changed? What is |
| Tx:25.58 | at all. To each his special function is designed to be perceived as | possible and more and more desired as it proves to him that it is an |
| Tx:25.59 | made a hell of Heaven and a heaven of hell, had such insanity been | possible. |
| Tx:25.62 | if he could, the loss would be his Father's, and in Him no loss is | possible. And this is sane because it is the truth. |
| Tx:25.78 | Heaven. Not one sin would you retain. And not one doubt that this is | possible will you hold dear that sin be kept in place. You mean that |
| Tx:26.11 | another. For there is but one mistake—the whole idea that loss is | possible and could result in gain for anyone. If this were true, then |
| Tx:26.11 | anyone. If this were true, then God would be unfair, sin would be | possible, attack be justified, and vengeance fair. |
| Tx:26.21 | comparison that he will ever make, the last evaluation that will be | possible, the final judgment upon this world. It is the judgment of |
| Tx:26.24 | so clearly unalike.] There is no conflict here. No sacrifice is | possible in the relinquishment of an illusion recognized as such. |
| Tx:26.30 | is a help or hindrance to the gate of Heaven. Nothing in between is | possible. There are two teachers only, who point in different ways. |
| Tx:26.47 | them in a way that summarizes all that must occur for healing to be | possible. For when it once is possible, it must occur. All sickness |
| Tx:26.47 | all that must occur for healing to be possible. For when it once is | possible, it must occur. All sickness comes from separation. When the |
| Tx:26.51 | one illusion be less amenable to truth than are the rest. But it is | possible that some are given greater value and less willingly offered |
| Tx:26.56 | all things within Itself? There is no sin. And every miracle is | possible the instant that the Son of God perceives his wishes and the |
| Tx:26.60 | illusions to be true, without success. For never will success be | possible in trying to deceive the Son of God. |
| Tx:26.61 | The miracle is | possible when cause and consequence are brought together, not kept |
| Tx:26.61 | effects as is the whole idea of sacrifice. If loss in any form is | possible, then is God's Son made incomplete and not himself. [Nor |
| Tx:27.33 | temporarily. It lets the Holy Spirit make exchange of pictures | possible until the time when aids are meaningless and learning done. |
| Tx:27.36 | answer and no resolution, for its purpose is to make no resolution | possible and to ensure no answer will be plain. A problem set in |
| Tx:27.41 | the question does the meaningfulness of the answer come. Here is it | possible to separate your wishes from the answer, so it can be given |
| Tx:27.45 | you wish only to be healed, you heal. Your single purpose makes this | possible. But if you are afraid of healing, then it cannot come |
| Tx:27.51 | has been escaped. It cannot be their differences which made this | possible, for learning does not jump from situations to their |
| Tx:27.82 | laugh. In his forgetting did the thought become a serious idea and | possible of both accomplishment and real effects. Together, we can |
| Tx:28.6 | present, which is but a consequence in which no change can be made | possible because its cause has gone. Yet change must have a cause |
| Tx:28.20 | every dream that anyone has dreamed within the world. No plans are | possible and no design exists that could be found and understood. |
| Tx:29.3 | perhaps, provided that your separate interests made your friendship | possible a little while. But not without a gap between you, lest he |
| Tx:29.4 | get in touch and signify a meeting-place to join. But always is it | possible to go your separate ways. Conditional upon the “right” to |
| Tx:29.16 | body does not change. It represents the larger dream that change is | possible. To change is to attain a state unlike the one in which you |
| Tx:30.41 | you, you want indeed and have the right to ask for. Nor could it be | possible it be denied. Your will to be complete is but God's Will, |
| Tx:30.74 | could replace it and destroy the Will of God. Only if this were | possible could there be some appearances which could withstand the |
| Tx:31.48 | For what you are has now become his sin. For this is no forgiveness | possible. No longer does it matter what he does, for your accusing |
| W1:I.1 | meaningful. Yet it is the exercises which will make the goal | possible. An untrained mind can accomplish nothing. It is the purpose |
| W1:I.3 | times a day, preferably in a different place each time and, if | possible, in every situation in which you spend any long period of |
| W1:I.4 | themselves consisting of applying that idea to as many specifics as | possible. Be sure that you do not decide that there are some things |
| W1:2.1 | Turn your head so that you include whatever is to either side. If | possible, turn around and apply the idea to what was behind you. |
| W1:2.1 | apply the idea to what was behind you. Remain as indiscriminate as | possible in selecting subjects for its application, do not |
| W1:8.4 | a thought, you are not seeing anything. With as little investment as | possible, search your mind for the usual minute or so, merely noting |
| W1:11.3 | The introduction to this idea should be practiced as casually as | possible. It contains the foundation for the peace, relaxation, and |
| W1:15.7 | practice that is recommended, try to make the selection as random as | possible. Less than a minute will do for the practice periods, if you |
| W1:19.2 | idea, you will yet understand that it must be true if salvation is | possible at all. And salvation must be possible because it is the |
| W1:19.2 | must be true if salvation is possible at all. And salvation must be | possible because it is the Will of God. |
| W1:19.5 | The requirement of as much indiscriminateness as | possible in selecting subjects for the practice period should be |
| W1:21.6 | Try to be as specific as | possible. You may, for example, focus your anger on a particular |
| W1:22.1 | preoccupy him and people his entire world. What peace of mind is | possible to him then? |
| W1:24.5 | that occurs to you, and enumerate carefully as many goals as | possible that you would like to be met in its resolution. The form of |
| W1:24.9 | After covering the list of as many hoped-for goals as | possible for each unresolved situation that crosses your mind, say to |
| W1:26.9 | Then go over every | possible outcome which has occurred to you in that connection and |
| W1:27.6 | It should be used at least every half hour, and more often if | possible. You might try for every 15 or 20 minutes. It is recommended |
| W1:28.10 | Each application should be made quite slowly and as thoughtfully as | possible. There is no hurry. |
| W1:29.5 | list of subjects should therefore be as free of self-selection as | possible. For example, a suitable list might include: |
| W1:30.3 | Today's idea should be applied as often as | possible throughout the day. Whenever you have a moment or so, repeat |
| W1:31.3 | hierarchy among them. Watch them come and go as dispassionately as | possible. Do not dwell on any one in particular, but try to let the |
| W1:31.4 | In addition, repeat the idea for today as often as | possible during the day. Remind yourself that you are making a |
| W1:32.3 | look around your inner world. Try to treat them both as equally as | possible. Repeat the idea for today unhurriedly as often as you wish |
| W1:32.5 | These exercises are also to be continued during the day as often as | possible. The shorter applications consist of repeating the idea |
| W1:33.3 | The shorter exercise periods should be as frequent as | possible. Specific applications of today's idea should also be made |
| W1:35.11 | As often as | possible during the day, pick up a specific attribute or attributes |
| W1:36.6 | of course, be made quite slowly, as effortlessly and unhurriedly as | possible. |

| W1:46.11 | because I am a Son of God. I have already been forgiven. No fear is | possible in a mind beloved of God. There is no need to attack, |
| W1:48.2 | very simple, and very frequent. Merely repeat the idea as often as | possible. You can use it with your eyes open at any time and in any |

| W1:49.1 | It is quite | possible to listen to God's Voice all through the day without |

| W1:49.5 | Do so with your eyes open when necessary, but closed when | possible. And be sure that you sit quietly and repeat the idea for |
| W1:R1.2 | about the idea and the related comments. Do this as often as | possible during the day. If any one of the five ideas appeals to you |

| W1:62.5 | As often as you can, closing your eyes if | possible, say to yourself: |
| W1:65.3 | Try, if | possible, to undertake the daily extended practice periods at |
| W1:65.3 | this time today in advance and then adhere to it as closely as | possible. |
| W1:65.6 | each one as it comes to you with as little involvement or concern as | possible, dismissing each one by telling yourself: |
| W1:66.9 | no other guides but these to choose between and no other outcomes | possible as a result of your choice but the fear which the ego always |

| W1:71.8 | seems to be a conflict with no resolution possible. All things are | possible to God. Salvation must be yours because of His plan, which |
| W1:74.1 | have recognized that your will is His. The belief that conflict is | possible has gone. Peace has replaced the strange idea that you are |
| W1:74.15 | are seeking. A minute or two every half-hour, with eyes closed if | possible, would be well spent on this today. |
| W1:76.14 | We will repeat this dedication as often as | possible today—at least four or five times an hour, as well as in |

| W1:107.6 | healing, for the truth needs no defense, and therefore no attack is | possible. Illusions can be brought to truth to be corrected. But the |
| W1:108.2 | True light which makes true vision | possible is not the light the body's eyes behold. It is a state of |
| W1:125.1 | deep within your mind where He abides. Hear Him today. No peace is | possible until His Word is heard around the world; until your mind, |

| W1:130.6 | Today we will attempt no compromise where none is | possible. The world you see is proof you have already made a choice |
| W1:139.6 | Atonement remedies the strange idea that it is | possible to doubt yourself and be unsure of what you really are. This |
| W1:140.4 | that is not a cure. It takes away the guilt that makes the sickness | possible. And that is cure indeed. For sickness now is gone, with |
| W1:153.1 | deceptions. It attacks and then attacks again. No peace of mind is | possible where danger threatens thus. |
| W1:153.4 | grim that hope of sanity seems but to be an idle dream, beyond the | possible. The sense of threat the world encourages is so much deeper |
| W1:153.15 | each day by giving our attention to the daily thought as long as | possible. Five minutes now becomes the least we give to preparation |
| W1:153.18 | in offering salvation to the world. Think you He will not make this | possible for you who chose to carry out His plan for the salvation of |
| W1:163.6 | all things die or else they live and cannot die. No compromise is | possible. For here again we see an obvious position which we must |

| W1:185.9 | you make. Be not deceived that it is otherwise. No compromise is | possible in this. You choose God's peace, or you have asked for |
| W1:187.2 | How is this | possible? For it is sure that if you give a finite thing away, your |
| W1:193.3 | God offers no forgiveness, for He knows no sin is | possible. And yet He let His holy law of Love be given form in which |

| Tx:5.57 | The Atonement gives you the | power of a healed mind, but the power to create is of God. Therefore, |
| Tx:5.57 | The Atonement gives you the power of a healed mind, but the | power to create is of God. Therefore, those who have been forgiven |
| Tx:5.57 | received the idea of healing, they must give it to hold it. The full | power of creation cannot be expressed as long as any of God's ideas |
| Tx:5.60 | meaningless concept except to the ego, but do not underestimate the | power of the ego's belief in it. This is the belief from which all |
| Tx:5.61 | of the authority problem as involving the concept of usurping God's | power. The ego believes that this is what you did because it believes |
| Tx:5.72 | as its maker, you recognize what it can do because you gave it the | power to do it. |
| Tx:5.73 | The mind does indeed know its | power, because the mind does indeed know God. Remember the Kingdom |
| Tx:5.74 | Spirit reverses its decisions, much as the Supreme Court has the | power to reverse the lower courts' decisions about the laws of this |
| Tx:5.77 | means is that the Holy Spirit in later generations retains the | power to interpret correctly what former generations have thought and |
| Tx:5.84 | This is its inherent strength, although it may misuse its | power. Freud lost much of the potential value of his thought system, |
| Tx:5.90 | His Will, but you can choose to accept His care and use the infinite | power of His care for all those He created by it. |
| Tx:6.24 | will therefore reject it. As a result, you will teach rejection. The | power of the Sons of God is operating all the time because they were |
| Tx:6.76 | your decision cannot change it. As you begin to realize the quiet | power of the Holy Spirit's Voice and its perfect consistency, it must |
| Tx:7.1 | The creative | power of both God and His creations is limitless, but they are not in |
| Tx:7.1 | Him. We have already said that only in this respect your creative | power differs from His. Even in this world there is a parallel. |
| Tx:7.2 | from you to your creations. Only in this way can all creative | power extend outward. God's accomplishments are not yours. But yours |
| Tx:7.2 | like His. He created the Sonship, and you increase it. You have the | power to add to the Kingdom, but not to add to the Creator of the |
| Tx:7.2 | but not to add to the Creator of the Kingdom. You claim this | power when you become vigilant only for God and His Kingdom. By |
| Tx:7.2 | you become vigilant only for God and His Kingdom. By accepting this | power as yours, you have learned to be what you are. |
| Tx:7.24 | He maximizes all efforts and all results. By teaching the | power of the Kingdom of God Himself, He teaches you that all power is |
| Tx:7.24 | the power of the Kingdom of God Himself, He teaches you that all | power is yours. Its application does not matter. It is always |
| Tx:7.25 | you are the way and the truth and the light. You did not make this | power, any more than I did. It was created to be shared and therefore |
| Tx:7.47 | is a lesson in sickness. Learning is constant and so vital in its | power for change that a Son of God can recognize his power in one |
| Tx:7.47 | so vital in its power for change that a Son of God can recognize his | power in one instant and change the world in the next. That is |
| Tx:7.55 | in utter confusion. Your own thinking has done this because of its | power, but your own thinking can also save you from this, because its |
| Tx:7.55 | but your own thinking can also save you from this, because its | power is not of your making. Your ability to direct your thinking as |
| Tx:7.55 | Your ability to direct your thinking as you will is part of its | power. If you do not believe you can do this, you have denied the |
| Tx:7.55 | power. If you do not believe you can do this, you have denied the | power of your thought and thus rendered it powerless in your belief. |
| Tx:7.56 | of the ego to preserve itself is enormous, but it stems from the | power of the mind, which the ego denies. This means that the ego |
| Tx:7.56 | to its existence for its existence. Fearful of perceiving the | power of this source, it is forced to depreciate it. This threatens |
| Tx:7.58 | makes it treacherous to love, because you are love. Love is your | power, which the ego must deny. It must also deny everything which |
| Tx:7.58 | which the ego must deny. It must also deny everything which this | power gives you, because it gives you everything. No one who has |
| Tx:7.65 | and the creation is your wholeness, your sanity, and your limitless | power. This limitless power is God's gift to you, because it is what |
| Tx:7.65 | wholeness, your sanity, and your limitless power. This limitless | power is God's gift to you, because it is what you are. If you |
| Tx:7.70 | sometimes. Remember a very early lesson—“Never underestimate the | power of denial.” It has no power in itself, but you can give it the |
| Tx:7.70 | early lesson—“Never underestimate the power of denial.” It has no | power in itself, but you can give it the power of your mind, whose |
| Tx:7.70 | power of denial.” It has no power in itself, but you can give it the | power of your mind, whose power is without limit of any kind. If you |
| Tx:7.70 | power in itself, but you can give it the power of your mind, whose | power is without limit of any kind. If you use it to deny reality, |
| Tx:7.81 | God, because they belong to His beloved Sons who belong to Him. All | power and glory are yours, because the Kingdom is His. |
| Tx:7.84 | ego, using its own warped version of the laws of God, utilizes the | power of the mind only to defeat the mind's real purpose. It projects |
| Tx:7.85 | out you have excluded it from within is a complete distortion of the | power of extension. |
| Tx:7.87 | of the laws of God by distorted minds which are misusing their own | power. |
| Tx:7.91 | Only you can limit your creative | power, but God wills to release it. He no more wills you to deprive |
| Tx:7.92 | its brothers is included in its own, as it is included in God. The | power of the whole Sonship and of its Creator is therefore the Soul's |
| Tx:7.92 | totality must include God. Everything He created is given all His | power, because it is part of Him and shares His Being with Him. |
| Tx:7.112 | heal a brother by recognizing his worth, you are acknowledging his | power to create and yours. He cannot have lost what you recognize, |
| Tx:7.112 | see in him. He is a co-creator with God with you. Deny his creative | power, and you are denying yours and that of God, Who created you. |
| Tx:8.2 | of the ego seems to interfere with your learning, but the ego has no | power to distract you unless you give it the power. |
| Tx:8.2 | but the ego has no power to distract you unless you give it the | power. |
| Tx:8.13 | God His Kingdom because He created you for this. When we said, “All | power and glory are yours because the Kingdom is His,” this is what |
| Tx:8.14 | The Will of God is without limit, and all | power and glory lie within it. It is boundless in strength and in |
| Tx:8.14 | only like Himself, you are like Him. You are part of Him Who is all | power and glory and are therefore as unlimited as He is. |
| Tx:8.15 | To what else except all | power and glory can the Holy Spirit appeal to restore God's Kingdom? |
| Tx:8.17 | His teaching will release your will to God's, uniting it with His | power and glory and establishing them as yours. You share them as God |
| Tx:8.20 | nothing else to learn. Everyone is looking for himself and for the | power and glory he thinks he has lost. Whenever you are with anyone, |
| Tx:8.20 | you are with anyone, you have another opportunity to find them. Your | power and glory are in him, because they are yours. The ego tries to |
| Tx:8.23 | of yourself, because you are part of God, Who is everything. His | power and glory are everywhere, and you cannot be excluded from them. |
| Tx:8.23 | That is why He has given you the means for undoing it. Through His | power and glory, all your wrong decisions are undone, completely |
| Tx:8.23 | any part of the Sonship has accepted. Wrong decisions have no | power because they are not true. The imprisonment which they seem to |
| Tx:8.24 | Power and glory belong to God alone. So do you. God gives whatever | |
| Tx:8.24 | are in Him. You cannot be powerless to do this, because this is your | power. Glory is God's gift to you, because that is what He is. See |
| Tx:8.31 | own condition, because will is the mechanism of decision. It is the | power by which you separate or join and experience pain or joy |
| Tx:8.32 | will, as nothing God created can oppose His. God gave your will its | power, which I can only acknowledge in honor of His. If you want to |
| Tx:8.36 | we can do nothing, but together our wills fuse into something whose | power is far beyond the power of its separate parts. By not being |
| Tx:8.36 | together our wills fuse into something whose power is far beyond the | power of its separate parts. By not being separate, the Will of God |
| Tx:8.38 | His Oneness encompasses ours. To join with me is to restore His | power to you, because we are sharing it. I offer you only the |
| Tx:8.38 | because we are sharing it. I offer you only the recognition of His | power in you, but in that lies all truth. As we unite, we unite with |
| Tx:8.41 | for which God's Voice speaks in all of us. Never accord the ego the | power to interfere with the journey because it has none, [and] the |
| Tx:8.42 | anything the world has to offer. The world can add nothing to the | power and the glory of God and His holy Sons, but it can blind the |
| Tx:8.43 | glorify Him whom the world denies, for over His Kingdom, it has no | power. No one created by God can find joy in anything except the |
| Tx:8.49 | because apart from each other we cannot function at all. The whole | power of God's Son lies in all of us, but not in any of us alone. God |
| Tx:8.49 | will to be alone. That is why He created His Son and gave him the | power to create with Him. |
| Tx:8.55 | the body that this is not so, you will begin to understand the | power of the mind that is in both of you. If you use the body for |
| Tx:8.57 | impossible. When you look upon a brother as a physical entity, his | power and glory are lost to you, and so are yours. You have attacked |
| Tx:8.58 | You are not of yourselves. He of Whom you are has willed your | power and glory for you, with which you can perfectly accomplish His |
| Tx:8.64 | Learning must lead beyond the body to the reestablishment of the | power of the mind in it. This can be accomplished only if the mind |
| Tx:8.68 | attack, but there is unlimited communication and therefore unlimited | power and wholeness. The power of wholeness is extension. Do not |
| Tx:8.68 | communication and therefore unlimited power and wholeness. The | power of wholeness is extension. Do not arrest your thought in this |
| Tx:8.78 | can be so insistent. Have you seriously considered the distorting | power of something you want, even if it is not true? You have had |
| Tx:8.85 | it hates. To the ego this is perfectly sensible. Believing in the | power of attack, the ego wants attack. |
| Tx:8.93 | true from the false in your unconscious, we meant that He has the | power to look into what you have hidden and perceive the Will of God |
| Tx:9.23 | Yet if the dreamer is equated with the mind, the mind's corrective | power through the Holy Spirit is denied. |
| Tx:9.61 | only for Himself. He created you for Himself, but He gave you the | power to create for your self so you could be like Him. That is why |
| Tx:9.75 | from their sickness and returned to His Mind. He will not limit your | power to help them, because He has given it to you. Do not be afraid |
| Tx:9.75 | What Comforter can there be for the sick Children of God except His | power through you? Remember that it does not matter where in the |
| Tx:9.77 | by sick minds which are too divided to know that creation shares | power and never usurps it. Sickness is idolatry, because it is the |
| Tx:9.77 | never usurps it. Sickness is idolatry, because it is the belief that | power can be taken from you. Yet this is impossible, because you are |
| Tx:9.77 | you. Yet this is impossible, because you are part of God, Who is all | power. |
| Tx:9.80 | illusion, and sickness is an illusion. Yet every Son of God has the | power to deny illusions anywhere in the Kingdom merely by denying |
| Tx:9.91 | by weakening his belief in sickness, which he does not share. The | power of one mind can shine into another, because all the lamps of |
| Tx:9.101 | you bring sin, pain, and suffering into your own mind because of the | power He gave it. Your mind is capable of creating worlds, but it can |
| Tx:10.32 | when you deny your Father is still for your protection, for the | power of your will cannot be lessened without the intervention of God |
| Tx:10.32 | the intervention of God against it, and any limitation on your | power is not the Will of God. Therefore, look only to the power that |
| Tx:10.32 | on your power is not the Will of God. Therefore, look only to the | power that God gave to save you, remembering that it is yours because |
| Tx:10.41 | in terms which makes it meaningless. “Dynamics” implies the | power to do something, and the whole separation fallacy lies in the |
| Tx:10.41 | the whole separation fallacy lies in the belief that the ego has the | power to do anything. The ego is fearful to you because you believe |
| Tx:10.42 | All | power is of God. What is not of Him has no power to do anything. |
| Tx:10.42 | All power is of God. What is not of Him has no | power to do anything. |
| Tx:10.43 | is to be separate, sufficient unto itself, and independent of any | power except its own. This is why it is the symbol of separation. |
| Tx:10.46 | The ego always attacks on behalf of separation. Believing it has the | power to do this, it does nothing else because its goal of autonomy |
| Tx:10.47 | rise to fear, it is diminishing your independence and weakening your | power. Yet its one claim to your allegiance is that it can give power |
| Tx:10.47 | your power. Yet its one claim to your allegiance is that it can give | power to you. Without this belief, you would not listen to it at all. |
| Tx:10.47 | accepting it, you are belittling yourself and depriving yourself of | power? |
| Tx:10.49 | have successfully attacked truth, you are believing that attack has | power. Very simply, then, you have become afraid of yourself. And no |
| Tx:10.53 | of the ego to everything. Never forget that the ego believes that | power, understanding, and truth lie in separation, and to establish |
| Tx:10.58 | to the thought system you want to be true. Every brother has the | power to release you if you will to be free. You cannot accept false |
| Tx:10.63 | Do not underestimate the | power of the devotion of God's Son nor the power of the god he |
| Tx:10.63 | Do not underestimate the power of the devotion of God's Son nor the | power of the god he worships over him. For he places himself at the |
| Tx:10.63 | obey. In his name they crucify themselves, believing that the | power of the Son of God is born of sacrifice and pain. The God of the |
| Tx:10.64 | gladly because it is the symbol of joy. Its whole compelling | power lies in the fact that it represents what you want to be. The |
| Tx:10.68 | are of equal value, and their equality is their oneness. The whole | power of God is in every part of Him, and nothing contradictory to |
| Tx:10.85 | give it because you want it. Nothing will be beyond your healing | power because nothing will be denied your simple request. What |
| Tx:10.87 | for He would save you from all condemnation. Accept His healing | power and use it for all He sends you, for He wills to heal the Son |
| Tx:11.1 | have made his error real to you. To interpret error is to give it | power, and having done this, you will overlook truth. |
| Tx:11.12 | predominance, fear becomes meaningless. You have denied its | power to conceal love, which was its only purpose. The mask which you |
| Tx:11.15 | of the density of the fog that obscures it. If you give no | power to the fog to obscure the light, it has none, for it has power |
| Tx:11.15 | no power to the fog to obscure the light, it has none, for it has | power only because the Son of God gave power to it. He must himself |
| Tx:11.15 | it has none, for it has power only because the Son of God gave | power to it. He must himself withdraw that power, remembering that |
| Tx:11.15 | the Son of God gave power to it. He must himself withdraw that | power, remembering that all power is of God. You can remember this |
| Tx:11.15 | to it. He must himself withdraw that power, remembering that all | power is of God. You can remember this for all the Sonship. Do not |
| Tx:11.37 | it and gives existence to it. Yet it is also your mind that has the | power to deny the ego's existence, and you will surely do so when you |
| Tx:11.70 | The | power of decision is your one remaining freedom as a prisoner of this |
| Tx:11.70 | else, it is because you have looked within and thought you saw the | power to give something else within yourself. It was only this |
| Tx:11.71 | mind is the loveliest of God's creations. Coming only from God, its | power and grandeur could only bring you peace if you really looked |
| Tx:11.83 | never be content without reality. What God did not give you has no | power over you, and the attraction of love for love remains |
| Tx:12.13 | love with weakness and hatred with strength, and your own real | power seems to you as your real weakness. For you could not control |
| Tx:12.19 | Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt yourself from His healing | power, for by not offering total love, you will not be healed |
| Tx:12.55 | because they brought you here. Your light will join with theirs in | power so compelling that it will draw the others out of darkness as |
| Tx:12.60 | real to you as the amount to which you hold it dear. And yet their | power is not the same because their real attraction to you is unequal. |
| Tx:12.61 | to return to dust even as you made it. This aching world has not the | power to touch the living world at all. You could not give it that, |
| Tx:12.62 | Yet the real world has the | power to touch you even here because you love it. And what you call |
| Tx:13.8 | the holy banner of His teaching, and as we grow in strength, the | power of God's Son will move in us, and we will leave no one |
| Tx:13.9 | are the witnesses to the Fatherhood of God, and He has given you the | power to create the witnesses to [yours, which is as His. Deny a |
| Tx:13.12 | terms of the belief in which the faith was placed. Faith makes the | power of belief, and where it is invested determines its reward. For |
| Tx:13.13 | will be like it. Whatever you hold as dear, you think is yours. The | power of your valuing will make it so. |
| Tx:13.43 | nightmare that disturbed the Mind of God's sleeping Son holds no | power over him. He will learn the lesson of awaking. God watches over |
| Tx:13.51 | dark. The thoughts which the Mind of God's Son projects have all the | power that he gives to them. The thoughts he shares with God are |
| Tx:13.68 | for guilt; the Holy Spirit the decision for guiltlessness. The | power of decision is all that is yours. What you can decide between |
| Tx:13.70 | not choose to free his brother and enter light with him. By giving | power to nothing, he threw away the joyous opportunity to learn that |
| Tx:13.70 | he threw away the joyous opportunity to learn that nothing has no | power. And by not dispelling darkness, he became afraid of darkness |
| Tx:13.70 | of darkness and of light. The joy of learning that darkness has no | power over the Son of God is the happy lesson the Holy Spirit teaches |
| Tx:13.72 | you, for if you do, you teach yourself that what is not of God has | power over you. The causeless cannot be. Do not attest to it, and do |
| Tx:13.72 | to deny the causeless and accept the Cause of God as yours. The | power that God has given to His Son is his, and nothing else can His |
| Tx:14.10 | pain, no trial, no fear that teaching this can fail to overcome. The | power of God Himself supports this teaching and guarantees its |
| Tx:14.11 | Join your own efforts to the | power that cannot fail and must result in peace. No one can be |
| Tx:14.11 | by teaching such as this. You will not see yourself beyond the | power of God if you teach only this. You will not be exempt from the |
| Tx:14.12 | attribute, with no one left outside to suffer guilt alone. The | power of God draws everyone to its safe embrace of love and union. |
| Tx:14.13 | Blessed are you who teach with me. Our | power comes not of us but of our Father. In guiltlessness we know |
| Tx:14.13 | stand with me on holy ground. Remember for everyone your Father's | power that He has given him. Believe not that you cannot teach His |
| Tx:14.14 | He would release from fear and reestablish the reign of love. The | power of love is in His gentleness, which is of God and therefore |
| Tx:14.17 | beneficence. What is kept apart from love cannot share its healing | power, because it has been separated off and kept in darkness. The |
| Tx:14.18 | Would you continue to give imagined | power to these strange ideas of safety? They are neither safe nor |
| Tx:14.20 | you are. All this, and nothing else, would He separate from you. The | power of decision, which you made in place of the power of creation, |
| Tx:14.20 | from you. The power of decision, which you made in place of the | power of creation, He would teach you how to use on your behalf. You |
| Tx:14.29 | to means of preservation and release. His task is mighty, but the | power of God is with Him. Therefore, to Him it is so easy that it was |
| Tx:14.32 | In the darkness you have obscured the glory God gave you and the | power He bestowed upon His guiltless Son. All this lies hidden in |
| Tx:14.32 | is the closing of the doors that interferes with recognition of the | power of God that shines in you. Banish not power from your mind, but |
| Tx:14.32 | with recognition of the power of God that shines in you. Banish not | power from your mind, but let all that would hide your glory be |
| Tx:14.37 | The link with which the Father joins Himself to those He gives the | power to create like Him can never be dissolved. Heaven itself is |
| Tx:14.40 | The Atonement is so gentle you need but whisper to it, and all its | power will rush to your assistance and support. You are not frail |
| Tx:14.44 | Could you but realize for a single instant the | power of healing that the reflection of God, shining in you, can |
| Tx:14.51 | requires no judgment of your own. The answer is very simple. The | power of God, and not of you, engenders miracles. The miracle itself |
| Tx:14.51 | miracles. The miracle itself is but the witness that you have the | power of God in you. That is the reason why the miracle gives equal |
| Tx:14.51 | all who share in it, and that is also why everyone shares in it. The | power of God is limitless. And being always maximal, it offers |
| Tx:14.57 | of His Son with all the love He holds for him. Nor will the | power of all His love be absent from any miracle you offer to His |
| Tx:14.58 | the essential thing is learning that you do not know. Knowledge is | power, and all power is of God. You who have tried to keep power for |
| Tx:14.58 | thing is learning that you do not know. Knowledge is power, and all | power is of God. You who have tried to keep power for yourselves have |
| Tx:14.58 | is power, and all power is of God. You who have tried to keep | power for yourselves have lost it. You still have the power, but you |
| Tx:14.58 | tried to keep power for yourselves have lost it. You still have the | power, but you have interposed so much between it and your awareness |
| Tx:14.58 | cannot use it. Everything you have taught yourselves has made your | power more and more obscure to you. You know not what it is nor |
| Tx:14.58 | you. You know not what it is nor where. You have made a semblance of | power and a show of strength so pitiful that it must fail you. For |
| Tx:14.58 | power and a show of strength so pitiful that it must fail you. For | power is not a seeming strength, and truth is beyond semblance of any |
| Tx:14.58 | semblance of any kind. Yet all that stands between you and the | power of God in you is but your learning of the false and your |
| Tx:14.59 | of it. Can God learn how not to be God? And can His Son, given all | power by Him, learn to be powerless? What have you taught yourselves |
| Tx:14.61 | God gave it. This lesson shines with God's glory, for in it lies His | power, which He shares so gladly with His Son. |
| Tx:14.75 | The | power of God, from which they both arise, is yours as surely as it is |
| Tx:14.75 | you. Leave room for Him, and you will find yourself so filled with | power that nothing will prevail against your peace. And this will be |
| Tx:15.15 | Holy Spirit to use. He needs but very little to restore God's whole | power to you. He Who transcends time for you understands what time is |
| Tx:15.21 | will depart from you in this practice, for it is the practice of the | power of God in you. Use it but for one instant, and you will never |
| Tx:15.24 | when you realize that it is true and constitutes a tribute to your | power. You who have sought and found littleness, remember this: Every |
| Tx:15.26 | The | power of God will support every effort you make on behalf of His dear |
| Tx:15.26 | of His dear Son. Search for the little, and you deny yourself His | power. God is not willing that His Son be content with less than |
| Tx:15.28 | with littleness are the decisions you have made about yourself. The | power and the glory that lie in you from God are for all who, like |
| Tx:15.34 | Forget not that his call is yours, and answer him with me. God's | power is forever on the side of His host, for it protects only the |
| Tx:15.58 | All separation vanishes as holiness is shared. For holiness is | power, and by sharing it, it gains in strength. If you seek for |
| Tx:15.58 | of relationships which transcends the concept of loss of | power completely. |
| Tx:15.64 | of all your brothers to replace it in your awareness. God and the | power of God will take their rightful place in you, and you will |
| Tx:15.77 | that communication is salvation. And He will do so, for the | power of God in Him and you is joined in real relationship, so holy |
| Tx:15.88 | strength between Heaven and hell, God and the ego, and release your | power unto creation, which is the only purpose for which it was given |
| Tx:15.90 | of God. His attraction for you remains unlimited, but because your | power, being His, is as great as His, you can turn away from love. |
| Tx:15.92 | It is in your | power in time to delay the perfect union of the Father and the Son. |
| Tx:15.93 | instant, no guilt is laid upon the Son of God, and his unlimited | power is thus restored to him. What other gift can you offer me, when |
| Tx:15.94 | acceptance of it, you have offered it to everyone. It is in your | power to make this season holy, for it is in your power to make the |
| Tx:15.94 | It is in your power to make this season holy, for it is in your | power to make the time of Christ be now. |
| Tx:15.102 | Host is as holy as the Perfect Innocence which He protects and Whose | power protects Him. |
| Tx:16.7 | which looks to weakness and hopes to find love there. The | power of love, which is its meaning, lies in the strength of God, |
| Tx:16.17 | listening will increase, and peace will grow with its increase. The | power of holiness and the weakness of attack have both been brought |
| Tx:16.17 | in minds firmly convinced that holiness is weakness and attack is | power. Should not this be a sufficient miracle to teach you that your |
| Tx:16.20 | to be used and not held idly by. They have already proved their | power sufficiently for you to place your faith in them and not in |
| Tx:16.25 | know. And they communicate to you through the Holy Spirit, and their | power and gratitude to you for their creation they offer gladly to |
| Tx:16.27 | what He is, will grow and help you honor Him. And you will learn His | power and strength and purity, and love Him as His Father does. His |
| Tx:16.53 | How can you grant unlimited | power to what you think you have attacked? So fearful has the truth |
| Tx:16.53 | You think it safer to endow the little self which you have made with | power you wrested from truth, triumphing over it and leaving it |
| Tx:16.53 | to kill his self and on his body raise another self which takes its | power from his death. Over and over and over this ritual is enacted. |
| Tx:16.62 | they are trying to decrease their magnitude. Each would deny his | power, for the separate union excludes the universe. Far more is left |
| Tx:16.76 | Yet you will not attempt this long. In the holy instant, the | power of the Holy Spirit will prevail because you joined Him. The |
| Tx:16.79 | which would heal and the ego's “atonement” which would destroy. The | power of God and all His Love, without limit, will support you as you |
| Tx:17.2 | what you wish. This strange position in a sense acknowledges your | power. Yet by distorting it and devoting it to “evil,” it also makes |
| Tx:17.3 | would keep them from truth. Very simply, your lack of faith in the | power that heals all pain arises from your wish to retain some |
| Tx:17.15 | the ego's goals and make your relationships the witness to its | power. It is these shadow figures which would make the ego holy in |
| Tx:17.36 | And your defense must now be undertaken to keep truth whole. The | power of Heaven, the love of God, the tears of Christ, and the joy of |
| Tx:17.42 | ascendance in our minds. We will gain everything by giving Him the | power and the glory and keeping no illusions of where they are. They |
| Tx:17.70 | The | power set in you in whom the Holy Spirit's goal has been established |
| Tx:17.76 | given wherever faithlessness is laid aside unused. And then the | power of the Holy Spirit's purpose is free to use instead. This power |
| Tx:17.76 | the power of the Holy Spirit's purpose is free to use instead. This | power instantly transforms all situations into one sure and |
| Tx:18.18 | Dreams show you that you have the | power to make a world as you would have it be, and that because you |
| Tx:18.28 | accomplishment. Your desire is now in complete accord with all the | power of the Holy Spirit's will. No little, faltering footsteps that |
| Tx:18.31 | has joined with you to give the little spark of your desire the | power of God Himself, can you remain in darkness? You are coming home |
| Tx:18.35 | the result of your small willingness combined with the unlimited | power of God's Will. You have been wrong in thinking that it is |
| Tx:18.46 | threatens the peace of one is an equal threat to the other. The | power of joining and its blessing lie in the fact that it is now |
| Tx:18.77 | as it rests upon the ocean. Yet in neither sun nor ocean is the | power that rests in you. Would you remain within your tiny kingdom, a |
| Tx:18.90 | gives way softly to the mountain tops which rise above it and has no | power at all to hold back anyone willing to climb above it and see |
| Tx:19.19 | of God can be mistaken; he can deceive himself; he can even turn the | power of his mind against himself. But he cannot sin. There is |
| Tx:19.30 | through it. If it does not obey, the mind is judged insane. The only | power which could change perception is thus kept impotent, held to |
| Tx:19.31 | For He must have created what wills to destroy Him and has the | power to do so. Is it not easier to believe that you have been |
| Tx:19.32 | holy could not prevail against it nor remain itself before the | power of sin. Sin is perceived as mightier than God, before which God |
| Tx:19.33 | it would forever be beyond the hope of healing. For there would be a | power beyond God's, capable of making another will which could attack |
| Tx:19.34 | be healed of sin and all its ravages the instant that you give it no | power over each other. And you will help each other overcome mistakes |
| Tx:19.66 | everyone offers you witness of the end of sin and shows you that its | power is gone forever. Where can guilt be, when the belief in sin is |
| Tx:19.68 | For what He gives must be extended if you would have its limitless | power and use it for the Son of God's release. It is not this you |
| Tx:19.83 | to the incorruptible have been given through your acceptance the | power to release from corruption. What better way to teach the first |
| Tx:19.94 | to love, Love Itself has called, and each has been surmounted by the | power of the attraction of what lies beyond. Your wanting fear seemed |
| Tx:19.97 | them. It would not have you see its weakness and learn it has no | power to keep you from the truth. The Guide Who brought you here |
| Tx:19.102 | you will receive of him according to your choice. He has in him the | power to forgive your sins, as you for him. Neither can give it to |
| Tx:20.11 | stands beside him? With him, your vision has become the greatest | power for the undoing of illusion that God Himself could give. For |
| Tx:20.24 | you look on is the answer that it gave you, and you have given it | power to adjust the world to make its answer true. You asked this |
| Tx:20.24 | of the one thing that still would have it be unholy. Give it no | power to adjust the means and end. |
| Tx:20.28 | Nothing can hurt you unless you give it the | power to do so. For you give power as the laws of this world |
| Tx:20.28 | can hurt you unless you give it the power to do so. For you give | power as the laws of this world interpret giving—as you give, you |
| Tx:20.28 | giving—as you give, you lose. It is not up to you to give | power at all. Power is of God, given by Him and reawakened by the |
| Tx:20.28 | —as you give, you lose. It is not up to you to give power at all. | Power is of God, given by Him and reawakened by the Holy Spirit, Who |
| Tx:20.28 | the Holy Spirit, Who knows that as you give, you gain. He gives no | power to sin, and therefore it has none; nor to its results as this |
| Tx:20.28 | have not occurred because the Holy Spirit sees them not and gives no | power to their seeming source. Thus would He keep you free of them. |
| Tx:20.29 | laws of God in minds that have established other laws and given them | power to enforce what God created not. |
| Tx:20.30 | were made to guarantee that you would make mistakes and give them | power over you by accepting their results as your just due. What |
| Tx:20.31 | Those who choose freedom will experience only its results. Their | power is of God, and they will give it only to what God has given to |
| Tx:20.31 | but this can touch them, for they see only this, sharing their | power according to the Will of God. And thus their freedom is |
| Tx:20.31 | for those with little wings have not accepted for themselves the | power to share with you. |
| Tx:20.32 | The sinless give as they received. See, then, the | power of sinlessness within your brother and share with him the power |
| Tx:20.32 | the power of sinlessness within your brother and share with him the | power of the release from sin you offered him. To each who walks this |
| Tx:20.38 | and given welcome. Peace to your holy relationship, which has the | power to hold the unity of the Son of God together. You give to one |
| Tx:20.48 | are kept obscure and hidden from the sun. It does not seek for | power, but for relationships. The body is the ego's chosen weapon for |
| Tx:20.48 | for relationships. The body is the ego's chosen weapon for seeking | power through relationships. And its relationships must be unholy, |
| Tx:20.53 | no trace behind their going. The unholy instant of their seeming | power is frail as is a snowflake, but without its loveliness. Is this |
| Tx:20.71 | The body is the sign of weakness, vulnerability, and loss of | power. Can such a savior help you? Would you turn in your distress |
| Tx:20.72 | under His gentle gaze. What can the body's eyes perceive, with | power to correct? Its eyes adjust to sin, unable to overlook it in |
| Tx:20.74 | this. Once you accept this simple fact and take unto yourself the | power you gave them, you are released from them. One thing is sure— |
| Tx:21.2 | in you and to accept as yours. And if this is its meaning, then the | power to give it joy must lie within you.] |
| Tx:21.14 | you. Say only this, but mean it with no reservations, for here the | power of salvation lies: |
| Tx:21.17 | that the happenings that come to him were not his choice. His | power of decision is the determiner of every situation in which he |
| Tx:21.17 | and you decided sin was your goal. Be happy, and you gave the | power of decision to Him Who must decide for God for you. This is the |
| Tx:21.17 | He gave to you to give yourself. For by this gift is given you the | power to release your savior that he may give salvation unto you. |
| Tx:21.18 | the one you do is given you because you want it. Yet for this, the | power of your wanting must first be recognized. You must accept its |
| Tx:21.21 | against what must forever be. This is the statement that he has the | power to make God powerless and so to take it for himself and leave |
| Tx:21.24 | what it wants to make it so. There is no better demonstration of the | power of wanting, and therefore of faith, to make its goals seem real |
| Tx:21.26 | that you made yourself. For if you think the world you made has | power to make you what it wills, you are confusing Son and Father, |
| Tx:21.27 | with It is the Source of his creating. Apart from this he has no | power to create, and what he makes is meaningless. It changes nothing |
| Tx:21.30 | faith and with the persistence that faith inevitably brings. The | power of faith is never recognized if it is placed in sin. But it is |
| Tx:21.31 | faith can move mountains? This is indeed a little feat for such a | power. For faith can keep the Son of God in chains as long as he |
| Tx:21.33 | faith, but faith in nothing. Faith given to illusions does not lack | power, for by it does the Son of God believe that he is powerless. |
| Tx:21.36 | be removed. Desiring to look upon their brothers in holiness, the | power of belief and faith goes far beyond the body, supporting |
| Tx:21.36 | had limited their understanding of the world, desiring to place its | power elsewhere should another point of view be given them. The |
| Tx:21.38 | Your faith in sacrifice has given it great | power in your sight, except you do not realize you cannot see because |
| Tx:21.40 | You can have faith in it to serve the Holy Spirit's goal and give it | power to serve as means to help the blind to see. But in their |
| Tx:21.59 | the belief. For uncorrected error of any kind deceives you about the | power that is in you to make correction. If it can correct and you |
| Tx:21.65 | like love, would reassure you and seeks not to frighten you. The | power to heal the Son of God is given you because he must be one with |
| Tx:21.69 | The | power that you have over the Son of God is not a threat to his |
| Tx:21.71 | can they be except his enemy? And what can they do but envy him his | power and by their envy make themselves afraid of it? These are the |
| Tx:21.71 | ones, silent and afraid, alone and not communicating, fearful the | power of the Son of God will strike them dead and raising up their |
| Tx:21.72 | strong are never treacherous because they have no need to dream of | power and to act out their dream. How would an army act in dreams? |
| Tx:21.76 | seem to be the last remaining hope of finding sin and not accepting | power. |
| Tx:21.77 | Forget not that the choice of truth or sin, | power or helplessness, is the choice of whether to attack or heal. |
| Tx:21.77 | is the choice of whether to attack or heal. For healing comes of | power and attack of helplessness. Whom you attack you cannot want to |
| Tx:21.81 | change your mind. You can desire to exchange your helplessness for | power, and lose this same desire as a little glint of sin attracts |
| Tx:21.84 | constant vision can be given only those who wish for constancy. The | power of the Son of God's desire remains the proof that he is wrong |
| Tx:21.84 | and you will look on it and think it real. No thought but has the | power to release or kill. And none can leave the thinker's mind or |
| Tx:21.87 | desires that everything be like itself and sees it so. Nothing has | power to confound its constancy because its own desire cannot be |
| Tx:21.88 | his desire of something he believes holds out some promise of the | power of giving it. He may be wrong in what he asks, where, and of |
| Tx:21.89 | God's Will and are His happiness, whose will is powerful as His, a | power that is not lost in your illusions, think carefully why it |
| Tx:22.19 | makes all truth meaningless and all illusions real. Such is the | power of belief. It cannot compromise. And faith in innocence is |
| Tx:22.24 | Let us look closer at the whole illusion that what you made has | power to enslave its maker. This is the same belief that caused the |
| Tx:22.25 | that it must be healed and not with fear. Nothing you made has any | power over you unless you still would be apart from your Creator and |
| Tx:22.27 | rests, in time and yet beyond, immortal yet on earth. How great the | power that lies in it. Time waits upon its will, and earth will be as |
| Tx:22.39 | and make the other choice. This is not so. A choice made with the | power of Heaven to uphold it cannot be undone. Your way is decided. |
| Tx:22.47 | wholly undefending, for in this quiet state alone is strength and | power. Here can no weakness enter, for here is no attack and |
| Tx:22.54 | nothing given it but will be used. This holy relationship has the | power to heal all pain, regardless of its form. Neither of you alone |
| Tx:22.59 | blessing from it nor limit it in any way. He will join to it all the | power that God has given Him to make each little gift of love a |
| Tx:22.60 | welfare of the world. And it is only arrogance that would deny the | power of your will. Think you the Will of God is powerless? Is this |
| Tx:22.61 | or yourself than to attack the great Creator of the universe, whose | power you know. |
| Tx:22.62 | were one with God and recognized this oneness, you would know His | power is yours. But you will not remember this while you believe |
| Tx:22.65 | you cannot fear alone when your relationship can also teach the | power of love is there, which makes all fear impossible? Do not |
| Tx:23.7 | Conflict within you must imply that you believe the ego has the | power to be victorious. Why else would you identify with it? Surely |
| Tx:23.14 | Conflict must be between two forces. It cannot exist between one | power and nothingness. There is nothing you could attack that is not |
| Tx:23.50 | for what it is limits the healing and the miracles you have the | power to extend to all. Yet does the Holy Spirit understand how to |
| Tx:24.1 | are. And what illusion that idly seems to drift between them has the | power to defeat what is Their will? |
| Tx:24.2 | jeopardize your learning. No belief is neutral. Every one has the | power to dictate each decision you make. For a decision is a |
| Tx:24.4 | have been made and kept hidden to become beliefs, now given | power to direct all subsequent decisions. Mistake you not the power |
| Tx:24.4 | given power to direct all subsequent decisions. Mistake you not the | power of these hidden warriors to disrupt your peace. For it is at |
| Tx:24.13 | strong support? Who can detract from his omnipotence yet share his | power? And who can use him as the gauge of littleness and be released |
| Tx:24.18 | and given it his place, remember this: He has not lost the | power to forgive you all the sins you think you placed between him |
| Tx:24.27 | what God created not. And yet this idol that seems to give you | power has taken it away. For you have given your brother's birthright |
| Tx:24.40 | it is so. Wishing makes real, as surely as does will create. The | power of a wish upholds illusions as strongly as does love extend |
| Tx:24.57 | in His Son, whom you mistook as flesh and bound to laws that have no | power over him at all. |
| Tx:24.59 | the body. In its eyes, you are a separate universe with all the | power to hold itself complete within itself, with every entry shut |
| Tx:24.60 | vigilance—with little effort and with little time and with the | power of God maintaining it and promising success. Yet of the two, it |
| Tx:24.60 | it no sacrifice is asked, no strain called forth, and all the | power of Heaven and the might of truth itself is given to provide the |
| Tx:25.21 | Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the Son alike. Nothing has | power over you except His Will and yours, who but extend His Will. It |
| Tx:25.22 | that you may esteem yourself and him. To each of you is given the | power of salvation that escape from darkness into light be yours to |
| Tx:25.30 | The Maker of the world of gentleness has perfect | power to offset the world of violence and hate that seems to stand |
| Tx:25.31 | never sin, but he can wish for what would hurt him. And he has the | power to think he can be hurt. What could this be except a |
| Tx:25.42 | of God may cherish toward himself is God believed to be without the | power to save what He created from the pain of hell. But in the love |
| Tx:25.43 | and only bless. And being in accord with what God wills, he has the | power to heal and bless all those he looks on with the grace of God |
| Tx:25.54 | The Holy Spirit has the | power to change the whole foundation of the world you see to |
| Tx:25.72 | does mercy stand at God's right hand and give the Son of God the | power to forgive himself of sin. |
| Tx:25.75 | You can be perfect witness to the | power of love and justice if you understand it is impossible the Son |
| Tx:25.84 | to decide it should remain unsettled, unresolved, and lasting in its | power of injustice and attack. No one can be unjust to you, unless |
| Tx:26.1 | to limit loss. The body is itself a sacrifice—a giving up of | power in the name of saving just a little for yourself. To see a |
| Tx:26.7 | to the death of God and of His holy Son, think not that you have | power to make of them what God willed not they be. In Heaven God's |
| Tx:26.29 | hears the song of Heaven and remains without a voice that adds its | power to the song and makes it sweeter still. And each one joins the |
| Tx:26.39 | are a part of resurrection, not of death. No past illusions have the | power to keep you in a place of death, a vault God's Son entered an |
| Tx:26.44 | striving for can hurt you and will do so. Not because it has the | power to hurt, but just because you have denied it is but an illusion |
| Tx:26.44 | has entered all the world of sick illusions. All belief in sin, in | power of attack, in hurt and harm, in sacrifice and death has come to |
| Tx:26.45 | remain content. Yet God has given him a better Friend in Whom all | power in earth and Heaven rests. The one illusion that you think is |
| Tx:26.64 | and from hell and death, all glory be forever. For you have | power to save the Son of God because his Father willed that it be so. |
| Tx:26.65 | To use the | power God has given you as He would have it used is natural. It is |
| Tx:26.65 | Son's mistakes and set him free. But it is arrogant to lay aside the | power that He gave and choose a little senseless wish instead of what |
| Tx:27.4 | The | power of witness is beyond belief because it brings conviction in its |
| Tx:27.11 | proclaim the truth and value that it represents. Let it receive the | power to represent an endless life, forever unattacked. And to your |
| Tx:27.16 | without effect. What you would prove to him, you will believe. The | power of witness comes from your belief. And everything you say or do |
| Tx:27.17 | of his innocence. It is this testimony which can speak with | power greater than a thousand tongues. For here is his forgiveness |
| Tx:27.18 | disappear before the ancient clarion call of life. This call has | power far beyond the weak and miserable cry of death and guilt. The |
| Tx:27.29 | Power cannot oppose. For opposition would weaken it, and weakened | |
| Tx:27.29 | Power cannot oppose. For opposition would weaken it, and weakened | power is a contradiction in ideas. Weak strength is meaningless, and |
| Tx:27.29 | power is a contradiction in ideas. Weak strength is meaningless, and | power used to weaken is employed to limit. And therefore it must be |
| Tx:27.29 | therefore it must be limited and weak because that is its purpose. | Power is unopposed, to be itself. No weakness can intrude on it |
| Tx:27.31 | is nothing to attack or to deny, love, or hate, or to endow with | power or to see as weak. The picture has been wholly canceled out |
| Tx:27.32 | will fill, and where He is, there must the truth abide. Unweakened | power with no opposite is what creation is. For this there are no |
| Tx:27.33 | without a form, unpictured and unseen. Forgiveness is not yet a | power known as wholly free of limits. Yet it sets no limits you have |
| Tx:27.35 | A | Power wholly limitless has come, not to destroy, but to receive Its |
| Tx:27.35 | fear to lose you never had. Yet only this appears to interfere with | power unlimited and single thoughts, complete and happy, without |
| Tx:27.35 | complete and happy, without opposite. You do not know the peace of | power which opposes nothing. Yet no other kind can be at all. Give |
| Tx:27.35 | nothing. Yet no other kind can be at all. Give welcome to the | Power beyond forgiveness and beyond the world of symbols and of |
| Tx:27.52 | He has taught you to yourself, and He will do the rest. And thus the | power of your learning will be proved to you by all the many |
| Tx:27.83 | of all the sinful things the body does within its dream. You have no | power to make the body stop its evil deeds because you did not make |
| Tx:29.5 | and of distance seen between you. Thus do you endow it with a | power that lies not within itself. And herein lies its power over |
| Tx:29.5 | it with a power that lies not within itself. And herein lies its | power over you. For now you think that it determines when you meet |
| Tx:29.11 | Cause, and so it must be you are healed. And being healed, the | power to heal must also now be yours. The miracle is not a separate |
| Tx:29.18 | has not been recognized. And so it seems to be a thing with | power in itself. As something, it can be perceived and thought to |
| Tx:29.23 | the gentle way of kindness to God's Son. Whom you forgive is given | power to forgive you your illusions. By your gift of freedom is it |
| Tx:29.40 | yourself a purpose that you do not have. But you can not remove the | power to change your mind and see another purpose there. Change is |
| Tx:29.49 | You try to see in it a place of idols found outside yourself, with | power to make complete what is within by splitting what you are |
| Tx:29.49 | given you. Your idols do what you would have them do and have the | power you ascribe to them. And you pursue them vainly in the dream |
| Tx:29.49 | them. And you pursue them vainly in the dream because you want their | power as your own. |
| Tx:29.52 | as such and never seen for what they really are. That is the only | power which they have. Their purpose is obscure, and they are feared |
| Tx:29.53 | massed against your confidence and peace of mind. They have the | power to supply your lacks and add the value which you do not have. |
| Tx:29.55 | from yourself. A dark and fearful purpose, yet a thought without the | power to change one blade of grass from something living to a sign of |
| Tx:29.56 | It must be believed before it seems to come to life and given | power that it may be feared. Its life and power are its believer's |
| Tx:29.56 | to come to life and given power that it may be feared. Its life and | power are its believer's gift, and this is what the miracle restores |
| Tx:29.56 | gift, and this is what the miracle restores to what has life and | power worthy of the gift of Heaven and eternal peace. The miracle |
| Tx:29.57 | This is the anti-Christ—the strange idea there is a | power past omnipotence, a place beyond the infinite, a time |
| Tx:29.57 | the eternal. Here the world of idols has been set by the idea this | power and place and time are given form and shape the world where the |
| Tx:29.61 | to let himself bow down in worship to what has no life and seek for | power in the powerless. What happened to the holy Son of God that |
| Tx:29.64 | children? They pretend they rule the world and give their toys the | power to move about and talk and think and feel and speak for them. |
| Tx:30.37 | earth but must depend on your decision, that he learn death has no | power over him because he shares your freedom as he shares your will. |
| Tx:30.41 | want. Creation gives no separate person and no separate thing the | power to complete the Son of God. What idol can be called upon to |
| Tx:30.53 | deceived, for thus you prove that you have been deceived. Attack has | power to make illusions real. Yet what it makes is nothing. Who could |
| Tx:30.53 | real. Yet what it makes is nothing. Who could be made fearful by a | power that can have no real effects at all? What could it be but an |
| Tx:30.53 | at all. His one mistake is that he thinks them real. What can the | power of illusions do? |
| Tx:30.74 | correction or escape. There would be one mistake which had the | power to undo creation and to make a world which could replace it and |
| Tx:30.77 | cannot be some forms of sickness which the miracle must lack the | power to heal. |
| Tx:30.81 | mistakes that have been given no effects. But what you see as having | power to make an idol of the Son of God you will not pardon. For he |
| Tx:30.92 | forth from you consistently. For you have asked it be withheld from | power to heal all dreams. There is no miracle you cannot have when |
| Tx:30.94 | when you are tempted by a dream of what he is. But do not give it | power to replace the changeless in him in your sight of him. There is |
| Tx:31.3 | in every form you could conceive of them could ever doubt the | power of your learning skill. There is no greater power in the world. |
| Tx:31.3 | ever doubt the power of your learning skill. There is no greater | power in the world. The world was made by it and even now depends on |
| Tx:31.3 | the simple and the obvious. Say not you cannot learn them. For your | power to learn is strong enough to teach you that your will is not |
| Tx:31.5 | sees in all the world. His simple lessons in forgiveness have a | power mightier than yours because they call from God and from your |
| Tx:31.6 | which have no meaning? God willed not His Son forget Him. And the | power of His Will is in the Voice that speaks for Him. Which lesson |
| Tx:31.29 | prisoner and not the mind. The body thinks no thoughts. It has no | power to learn, to pardon, nor enslave. It gives no orders that the |
| Tx:31.37 | way instead? For while he sees a choice where there is none, what | power of decision can he use? The great release of power must begin |
| Tx:31.37 | is none, what power of decision can he use? The great release of | power must begin with learning where it really has a use. And what |
| Tx:31.37 | begin with learning where it really has a use. And what decision has | power if it be applied in situations without choice? |
| Tx:31.40 | There is a choice which you have | power to make when you have seen the real alternatives. Until that |
| Tx:31.40 | yourself again. This course attempts to teach no more than that the | power of decision cannot lie in choosing different forms of what is |
| Tx:31.79 | begot of you. For vision can but represent a wish, because it has no | power to create. Yet it can look with love or look with hate, |
| Tx:31.83 | it orders him to feel. It sets the limits on what he can do; its | power is the only strength he has; his grasp cannot exceed its tiny |
| Tx:31.86 | by never using weakness to direct your actions, you have given it no | power. And the light of Christ in you is given charge of everything |
| Tx:31.87 | His face from you. His holiness is yours because He is the only | power that is real in you. His strength is yours because He is the |
| Tx:31.88 | from Him. They will redeem the world, for they are joined in all the | power of the Will of God. And what they will is only what He wills. |
| Tx:31.93 | I ask when in exchange I lay before your feet the peace of God and | power to bring this peace to everyone who wanders in the world |
| W1:20.3 | he is the resurrection and the life. His Will is done because all | power is given him in Heaven and on earth. In your determination to |
| W1:38.1 | and limits of any kind. Your holiness is totally unlimited in its | power because it establishes you as a Son of God, at one with the |
| W1:38.1 | God, at one with the Mind of his Creator. Through your holiness, the | power of God is made manifest. Through your holiness the power of God |
| W1:38.1 | the power of God is made manifest. Through your holiness the | power of God is made available. And there is nothing the power of God |

| W1:38.2 | It is equal in its power to help anyone because it is equal in its | power to save anyone. If you are holy, so is everything God created. |
| W1:38.3 | In today's exercises, we will apply the | power of your holiness to all problems, difficulties, or suffering in |

| W1:41.2 | The idea for today has the | power to end all this foolishness forever. And foolishness it is, |

| W1:44.10 | that they cannot hold you to the world unless you give them the | power to do so. |
| W1:53.5 | when the perfection of creation is my home? Let me remember the | power of my decision and recognize where I really abide. |

| W1:58.4 | is unlimited in its power to heal because it is unlimited in its | power to save. What is there to be saved from except illusions? And |
| W1:61.3 | assertion of your right to be saved and an acknowledgment of the | power that is given you to save others. |
| W1:62.3 | all fear and guilt and pain. It will restore the invulnerability and | power God gave His Son to your awareness. |
| W1:63.1 | How holy are you who have the | power to bring peace to every mind! How blessed are you who can learn |
| W1:69.7 | ahead. Your little effort and small determination call on the | power of the universe to help you, and God Himself will raise you |
| W1:69.8 | in mind that what you undertake with God must succeed. Then let the | power of God work in you and through you, that His Will and yours may |
| W1:73.1 | and nothingness arise. The will you share with God has all the | power of creation in it. The ego's idle wishes are unshared and |
| W1:73.1 | in it. The ego's idle wishes are unshared and therefore have no | power at all. Its wishes are not idle in the sense that they can make |
| W1:73.10 | wholly in accord with your will. It is not the purpose of an alien | power, thrust upon you unwillingly. It is the one purpose here on |
| W1:73.14 | Then let your will assert itself, joined with the | power of God and united with your Self. Put the rest of the practice |
| W1:75.11 | Give thanks for mercy and the Love of God. Rejoice in the | power of forgiveness to heal your sight completely. Be confident that |
| W1:R2.3 | whatever form such thoughts may take, they have no meaning and no | power. Replace them with your determination to succeed. Do not forget |
| W1:R2.3 | with your determination to succeed. Do not forget that your will has | power over all fantasies and dreams. Trust it to see you through and |
| W1:85.7 | with my awareness of the Source of my salvation. This has no | power to remove salvation from me. |
| W1:87.2 | [73] I will there be light. I will use the | power of my will today. It is not my will to grope about in darkness, |
| W1:88.5 | God's. I am constantly tempted to make up other laws and give them | power over me. I suffer only because of my belief in them. They have |
| W1:93.5 | nor reduced eternal sinlessness to sin and love to hate. What | power can this self you made possess when it would contradict the |
| W1:95.10 | for weakness will enable us to overlook it, rather than give it | power to delay our learning. If we give it power to do this, we are |
| W1:95.10 | it, rather than give it power to delay our learning. If we give it | power to do this, we are regarding it as strength and are confusing |
| W1:95.11 | your Creator, at one with every aspect of creation, and limitless in | power and in peace. |
| W1:95.13 | my Creator, at one with every aspect of creation, and limitless in | power and in peace. |
| W1:95.17 | You are One Self, complete and healed and whole, with | power to lift the veil of darkness from the world and let the light |

| W1:97.10 | Spirit will accept this gift which you received of Him, increase its | power, and give it back to you. |
| W1:99.16 | You have a special message for today which has the | power to remove all forms of doubt and fear forever from your mind. |
| W1:100.10 | of Him Who waits that you may look on Him? What little thought has | power to hold you back? What foolish goal can keep you from success |
| W1:102.2 | to realize that pain is purposeless, without a cause, and with no | power to accomplish anything. It cannot purchase anything at all. It |
| W1:106.1 | salvation is; then you will hear the mighty Voice of truth, quiet in | power, strong in stillness, and completely certain in its messages. |
| W1:108.3 | is the light which shows no opposites, and vision, being healed, has | power to heal. This is the light that brings your peace of mind to |
| W1:109.2 | safety and the happiness you seek. “I rest in God.” This thought has | power to wake the sleeping truth in you, whose vision sees beyond |
| W1:110.5 | The healing | power of today's idea is limitless. It is the birthplace of all |

| W1:137.2 | rest to suffer what the others do not feel. It gives the body final | power to make the separation real and keep the mind in solitary |

| W1:165.6 | journey's end made certain, and salvation given you. Now is Christ's | power in your mind to heal as you were healed. For now you are among |
| W1:167.8 | of any kind, the thoughts of God remain forever changeless with the | power to extend forever changelessly but yet within Themselves, for |
| W1:167.9 | When the mind elects to be what it is not and to assume an alien | power which it does not have, a foreign state it cannot enter, or a |

| W1:188.6 | close your eyes. The light within you is sufficient. It alone has | power to give the gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer world and |
| W1:190.5 | yourself affects you. There is nothing in the world which has the | power to make you ill or sad or weak or frail. But it is you who have |
| W1:190.5 | to make you ill or sad or weak or frail. But it is you who have the | power to dominate all things you see by merely recognizing what you |
| W1:190.7 | may seem to cause you pain. And yet the world, as causeless, has no | power to cause. As an effect, it cannot make effects. As an illusion |
| W1:190.10 | is given you to realize the lesson which contains all of salvation's | power. It is this: pain is illusion; joy reality. Pain is but sleep; |
| W1:191.11 | dreams, born but to die, to weep, and suffer pain, hear this: all | power is given you in earth and Heaven. There is nothing that you |
| W1:192.3 | Heaven-borne, it has no form at all. Yet God created One Who has the | power to translate into form the wholly formless. What He makes are |

| W1:193.10 | which give you power over all events which seem to have been given | power over you. You see them rightly when you hold these words in |
| W1:199.2 | time and space, unbound by any preconceptions, and with strength and | power to do whatever it is asked. Attack thoughts cannot enter such a |
| W1:199.5 | period you take. There is no thought that will not gain thereby in | power to help the world, and none which will not gain in added gifts |

| W2:270.1 | Father, Christ's vision is Your gift to me, and it has | power to translate all that the body's eyes behold into the sight of |

| W2:WICR.2 | God's thoughts are given all the | power that Their own Creator has. For He would add to Love by its |

| M:22.7 | Who can limit the | power of God Himself? Who then can say who can be healed of what and |
| M:22.7 | can say who can be healed of what and what must remain beyond God's | power to forgive? This is insanity indeed. It is not up to God's |
| M:23.1 | A name does not heal, nor does an invocation call forth any special | power. What does it mean to call on Jesus Christ? What does calling |
| M:23.2 | all living things as part of him. There is now no limit on his | power, because it is the Power of God. So has his name become the |
| M:23.2 | part of him. There is now no limit on his power, because it is the | Power of God. So has his name become the name of God, for he no |
| M:25.1 | powers, and it is obviously merely an appeal to magic to make up a | power that does not exist. It is equally obvious, however, that each |
| M:25.6 | this there is no exception. And the more unusual and unexpected the | power, the greater its potential usefulness. Salvation has need of |

| M:29.5 | Who assumes a | power that he does not have is deceiving himself. Yet to accept the |
| M:29.5 | power that he does not have is deceiving himself. Yet to accept the | power given him by God is but to acknowledge his Creator and accept |

| Tx:8.86 | You have surely begun to realize that this is a very | practical course which means exactly what it says. So does the Bible, |
| Tx:10.80 | advocates. This is not a course in the play of ideas, but in their | practical application. Nothing could be more specific than to be told |
| Tx:17.43 | this world. Like everything about salvation, the holy instant is a | practical device, witnessed to by its results. The holy instant never |
| Tx:17.45 | immediately, and the Holy Spirit wastes no time in introducing the | practical results of asking Him to enter. At once His goal replaces |
| Tx:17.57 | The | practical application of the Holy Spirit's purpose is extremely |
| Tx:17.61 | The goal of truth has further | practical advantages. If the situation is used for truth and sanity, |

| W1:133.1 | far from what the student has already learned, to bring him back to | practical concerns. This we will do today. We will not speak of |

| Tx:15.21 | Start now to | practice your little part in separating out the holy instant. You |
| Tx:15.21 | strength. It is only your weakness that will depart from you in this | practice, for it is the practice of the power of God in you. Use it |
| Tx:15.21 | weakness that will depart from you in this practice, for it is the | practice of the power of God in you. Use it but for one instant, and |

| Tx:15.38 | claim the holy instant any time and anywhere you want it. In your | practice, try to give over every plan you have accepted for finding |
| Tx:15.44 | In your | practice, then, try only to be vigilant against deception and seek |
| Tx:18.68 | was made for you. Save time for me by only this one preparation and | practice, doing nothing else. “I need do nothing” is a statement of |
| Tx:30.1 | can be reached depends on this one thing alone—your willingness to | practice every step. Each one will help a little every time it is |
| Tx:30.1 | more ideas than rules of thought to you as yet. So now we need to | practice them awhile, until they are the rules by which you live. We |
| Tx:30.2 | You do not always know when you are making them. But with a little | practice with the ones you recognize, a set begins to form which sees |
| Tx:30.28 | day if you prevent unhappiness from entering at all. But this takes | practice in the rules which will protect you from the ravages of |
| Tx:31.3 | carefully you have learned it, and the pains to which you went to | practice and repeat the lessons endlessly in every form you could |
| W1:I.4 | how to see. The only rule that should be followed throughout is to | practice the exercises with great specificity. Each one applies to |
| W1:1.1 | Now look slowly around you, and | practice applying this idea very specifically to whatever you see: |
| W1:1.5 | The statement is merely applied to anything you see. As you | practice applying the idea for the day, use it totally |
| W1:4.1 | these exercises do not begin with the idea for the day. In these | practice periods, begin with noting the thoughts that are crossing |
| W1:4.5 | idea for a particular thought which you recognize as harmful. This | practice is useful, but is not a substitute for the more random |
| W1:5.4 | But again, this should not be substituted for | practice periods in which you first search your mind for “sources” of |
| W1:6.3 | used throughout the day for that purpose. However, the three or four | practice periods which are required should be preceded by a minute or |
| W1:8.4 | figure or theme it contains, and pass on to the next. Introduce the | practice period by saying: |
| W1:9.1 | for undoing your false ideas. These exercises are concerned with | practice, not with understanding. You do not need to practice what |
| W1:9.1 | concerned with practice, not with understanding. You do not need to | practice what you really understand. It would indeed be circular to |
| W1:9.3 | These exercises, for which three or four | practice periods are sufficient, involve looking about you and |
| W1:10.1 | to all the thoughts of which you are aware or become aware in the | practice periods. The reason the idea is applicable to all of them is |
| W1:10.8 | for any thought that distresses you at any time. In addition, five | practice periods are recommended, each involving no more than a |
| W1:11.1 | that your thoughts determine the world you see. Be glad indeed to | practice the idea in this initial form, for in this idea is your |
| W1:11.2 | The | practice periods for today's idea are to be undertaken somewhat |
| W1:11.4 | Three | practice periods today will probably be sufficient. However, if there |
| W1:12.6 | exercises, there is no difference between them. At the end of the | practice period, add: |
| W1:12.9 | times are enough for practicing the idea for today. Nor should the | practice periods exceed a minute. You may find even this too long. |
| W1:14.2 | should be short, a minute at most. Do not have more than three | practice periods with today's idea unless you find them comfortable. |
| W1:14.7 | it has no meaning. In recognition of this fact, conclude the | practice periods by repeating today's idea: |
| W1:14.9 | applied to anything that disturbs you during the day, aside from the | practice periods. Be very specific in applying it. Say: |
| W1:15.7 | to apply the idea to very many things during the minute or so of | practice that is recommended, try to make the selection as random as |
| W1:15.7 | selection as random as possible. Less than a minute will do for the | practice periods, if you begin to feel uneasy. Do not have more than |
| W1:16.3 | them all as equally destructive but equally unreal. We will | practice this idea in many forms before you really understand it. |
| W1:16.5 | In the | practice periods, first repeat the idea, and then as each one crosses |
| W1:16.9 | Four or five | practice periods are recommended if you find them relatively |
| W1:17.9 | Three or four specific | practice periods are recommended and no less than three are required |
| W1:17.9 | if you experience resistance. However, if you do, the length of the | practice period may be reduced to less than the minute or so which is |
| W1:18.2 | will emphasize this aspect of your perception. The three or four | practice periods which are recommended should be done as follows: |
| W1:18.5 | Conclude the | practice period by repeating the more general statement: |
| W1:19.5 | as much indiscriminateness as possible in selecting subjects for the | practice period should be quite familiar to you by now and will no |
| W1:19.5 | Do not forget, however, that random selection of subjects for all | practice periods remains essential throughout. Lack of order in this |
| W1:19.6 | from the “as needed” application of today's idea, at least three | practice periods are required, shortening the length of time involved |
| W1:20.1 | We have been quite casual about our | practice periods thus far. There has been virtually no attempt to |
| W1:21.1 | to applying the idea to particular situations as they arise. Five | practice periods are urged, allowing a full minute for each. |
| W1:21.2 | In the | practice periods, begin by repeating the idea to yourself. Then close |
| W1:21.3 | not to let the “little” thoughts of anger escape you in the | practice periods. Remember that you do not really recognize what |
| W1:22.5 | At the end of each | practice period, ask yourself: |
| W1:23.6 | Besides using it throughout the day as the need arises, five | practice periods are required in applying today's idea. As you look |
| W1:23.9 | In the | practice periods, be sure to include both your thoughts of attacking |
| W1:23.9 | you are asked at this time only to treat them as the same in today's | practice periods. We are still at the stage of identifying the cause |
| W1:24.3 | few subjects, honestly and carefully considered in each of the five | practice periods which should be undertaken today, will be more |
| W1:24.4 | The | practice periods begin with repeating today's idea, followed by |
| W1:25.6 | Six | practice periods, each of two minutes duration, are required. Each |
| W1:25.6 | practice periods, each of two minutes duration, are required. Each | practice period should begin with a slow repetition of the idea for |
| W1:26.4 | Practice with today's idea will help you to understand that | |
| W1:26.5 | Six | practice periods are required in applying today's idea. A full two |
| W1:26.6 | The | practice period should begin with repeating the idea for today, then |
| W1:26.6 | suitable subject. You will not be able to use very many for any one | practice period, because a longer time than usual should be spent |
| W1:26.15 | Conclude each | practice period by repeating today's idea once more. |
| W1:28.1 | giving specific application to the idea for yesterday. In these | practice periods, you will be making a series of definite |
| W1:28.6 | be making this same request of each subject which you use in the | practice periods. And you are making a commitment to each of them to |
| W1:28.7 | We will have six two minute | practice periods today in which the idea for the day is stated first |
| W1:29.4 | Our six two-minute | practice periods for today should follow a now familiar pattern: |
| W1:29.7 | In addition to the assigned | practice periods, repeat the idea for today at least once an hour, |
| W1:30.5 | you to become more accustomed to this idea as well, devote several | practice periods to applying today's idea with your eyes closed, |
| W1:31.1 | world you see within. In applying the idea, we will use a form of | practice which will be used more and more, with changes as indicated. |
| W1:31.2 | Two longer periods of | practice with the idea for today are needed, one in the morning and |
| W1:32.2 | are actually the same. However, since you see them as different, the | practice periods for today will again include two phases, one |
| W1:32.3 | Again we will begin the | practice periods for the morning and evening by repeating the idea |
| W1:32.4 | For the two longer | practice periods, three to five minutes are recommended, with not |
| W1:33.2 | In these | practice periods, the idea should be repeated as often as you find |
| W1:34.2 | Three longer | practice periods are required for today's exercises. One in the |
| W1:34.3 | five minutes of mind searching are required for each of the longer | practice periods. Search your mind for fear thoughts, anxiety |
| W1:35.4 | For each of the three five-minute | practice periods today, begin by repeating today's idea to yourself |
| W1:36.2 | Four three- to five-minute | practice periods are required for today. Try to distribute them |
| W1:36.2 | frequently to protect your protection throughout the day. The longer | practice periods should take this form: |
| W1:36.5 | Several times during these | practice periods, close your eyes and repeat the idea to yourself. |
| W1:37.4 | longer exercise periods, each to involve three to five minutes of | practice, begin with the repetition of the idea for today followed by |
| W1:37.8 | You may continue the | practice period with your eyes closed; you may open your eyes again |
| W1:37.8 | combination of these two phases of application which you prefer. The | practice period should conclude with a repetition of the idea with |
| W1:38.4 | In the four longer | practice periods, each preferably to last a full five minutes, repeat |
| W1:39.2 | the text is, and you would not need a workbook at all. No one needs | practice to gain what is already his. |
| W1:39.5 | A full five minutes are urged for the four longer | practice periods for today. Longer and more frequent practice |
| W1:39.5 | the four longer practice periods for today. Longer and more frequent | practice sessions are encouraged. If you want to exceed the minimum |
| W1:39.6 | Begin the | practice periods as usual by repeating today's idea to yourself. Then |
| W1:39.11 | Meanwhile, you should feel free to introduce variety into your | practice periods in whatever form appeals to you. Do not, however, |
| W1:39.12 | End each | practice period by repeating the idea in its original form once more, |
| W1:40.1 | happy things to which you are entitled, being what you are. No long | practice periods are required today, but very frequent short ones are |
| W1:40.2 | day when closing your eyes would not be appropriate. Do not miss a | practice period because of this. You can practice quite well under |
| W1:40.2 | appropriate. Do not miss a practice period because of this. You can | practice quite well under almost any circumstance, if you really want |
| W1:40.3 | associate with being a Son of God, applying them to yourself. One | practice period might, for example, consist of the following: |
| W1:41.5 | There will be only one long | practice period today. In the morning, as soon as you get up if |
| W1:41.5 | three to five minutes with your eyes closed. At the beginning of the | practice period, repeat today's idea very slowly. Then make no effort |
| W1:41.7 | We will go into more detail in connection with this kind of | practice as we go along. But it will never fail completely, and |
| W1:42.4 | Begin the | practice period by repeating the idea for today slowly with eyes |
| W1:42.8 | thoughts come. If you find this difficult, it is better to spend the | practice period alternating between slow repetitions of the idea with |
| W1:42.9 | There is no limit on the number of short | practice periods which would be most beneficial. The idea for the day |
| W1:43.4 | Three five-minute | practice periods are required today, one as early as possible and |
| W1:43.5 | At the beginning of these | practice periods, repeat the idea to yourself with eyes open. Then |
| W1:43.12 | In applying today's idea in the shorter | practice periods, the form may vary according to the circumstances |
| W1:44.3 | attempt to reach that light. For this purpose, we will use a form of | practice which has been suggested before and which we will utilize |
| W1:44.4 | Have at least three | practice periods today, each lasting three to five minutes. A longer |
| W1:44.5 | encounter strong resistance. The reason is very simple. While you | practice in this form, you leave behind everything that you now |
| W1:44.7 | Begin the | practice period by repeating today's idea with your eyes open and |
| W1:45.4 | Our three five-minute | practice periods for today will take the same general form that we |
| W1:45.11 | For this kind of | practice, only one thing is necessary—approach it as you would an |
| W1:46.3 | Today's exercises require at least three full five-minute | practice periods and as many shorter applications as possible. Begin |
| W1:46.3 | and as many shorter applications as possible. Begin the longer | practice periods by repeating today's idea to yourself, as usual. |
| W1:46.6 | The purpose of the first phase of today's | practice is to put you in the best position to forgive yourself. |
| W1:46.8 | Then devote the remainder of the | practice period to adding related ideas such as: |
| W1:46.12 | The | practice period should end, however, with a repetition of today's |
| W1:47.4 | your own weakness to the Source of real strength. Four five-minute | practice periods are necessary today, and longer and more frequent |
| W1:47.8 | In the latter phase of the | practice period, try to reach down into your mind to a place of real |
| W1:48.2 | Today's | practice periods will be very short, very simple, and very frequent. |
| W1:49.3 | We will need at least four five-minute | practice periods today and more if possible. We will try actually to |
| W1:R1.1 | each of the ideas, which you should consider in your review. In the | practice periods, the exercises should be done as follows: |
| W1:R1.2 | be practiced at least once. Devote two minutes or more to each | practice period, thinking about the idea and the related comments. Do |
| W1:R1.3 | the comments that follow each idea literally or thoroughly in the | practice periods. Rather, try merely to emphasize the central point |
| W1:61.5 | As many | practice periods as possible should be undertaken today, although |
| W1:61.8 | Be sure both to begin and end the day with a | practice period. Thus you will awaken with an acknowledgment of the |
| W1:61.8 | as you reaffirm your function and your only purpose here. These two | practice periods may be longer than the rest if you find them helpful |
| W1:64.7 | Today, then, let us | practice with these thoughts: |
| W1:64.11 | Two forms of shorter | practice periods are required. At times, do the exercises with your |
| W1:65.2 | of days to follow, set aside ten to 15 minutes for a more sustained | practice period in which you try to understand and accept what |
| W1:65.3 | Try, if possible, to undertake the daily extended | practice periods at approximately the same time each day. Try, also, |
| W1:65.5 | For this longer | practice period, begin by reviewing the idea for today. Then close |
| W1:65.11 | repeat the idea for today once more and devote the rest of the | practice period to trying to focus on its importance to you, the |
| W1:65.12 | In the shorter | practice periods, which should be undertaken at least once an hour, |
| W1:65.14 | Sometimes close your eyes as you | practice, and sometimes keep them open and look about you. It is what |
| W1:66.4 | Our longer | practice period today has as its purpose your acceptance of the fact |
| W1:66.5 | Begin the ten- to fifteen-minute | practice period by reviewing these thoughts: |
| W1:66.11 | Think about this during the longer | practice period today. Think also about the many forms which the |
| W1:66.14 | In the shorter | practice periods, which would be most helpful today if undertaken |
| W1:67.2 | fully, if only for a moment, that it is the truth. In the longer | practice period, we will think about your reality and its wholly |
| W1:67.7 | It will be particularly helpful today to | practice the idea for today as often as you can. You need to hear the |
| W1:67.8 | Try to realize in the shorter | practice periods that this is not your tiny solitary voice that tells |
| W1:68.6 | Begin today's extended | practice period by searching your mind for those against whom you |
| W1:68.9 | Spend the remainder of the | practice period trying to think of yourself as completely at peace |
| W1:68.9 | briefly, that nothing can harm you in any way. At the end of the | practice period tell yourself: |
| W1:68.11 | The short | practice periods should include a quick application of today's idea |
| W1:69.2 | the light in you. Before we undertake this in our more extended | practice period, let us devote several minutes in thinking about what |
| W1:69.3 | Let us begin our longer | practice period today with the full realization of all this and real |
| W1:69.9 | In the shorter | practice periods, which you will want to do as often as possible in |
| W1:70.5 | did not occur; God's purpose was to ensure that it did. Today we | practice realizing that God's Will and ours are really the same in |
| W1:70.7 | We are ready for two longer | practice periods today, each of which should last some ten to 15 |
| W1:70.7 | still let you decide when to undertake them. We will follow this | practice for a number of lessons, and it would again be well to |
| W1:70.8 | Begin these | practice periods by repeating the idea for today, adding a statement |
| W1:70.14 | For the short and frequent | practice periods today, remind yourself that your salvation comes |
| W1:71.8 | Let us | practice recognizing this certainty today. And let us rejoice that |
| W1:71.9 | Begin the two longer | practice periods for today by thinking about today's idea, and |
| W1:71.10 | Remembering this, let us devote the remainder of the extended | practice periods to asking God to reveal His plan to us. Ask Him very |
| W1:71.12 | Give Him full charge of the rest of the | practice period, and let Him tell you what needs to be done by you in |
| W1:71.13 | In the shorter | practice periods tell yourself often that God's plan for salvation, |
| W1:72.11 | Our goal in the longer | practice periods today is to become aware that God's plan for |
| W1:72.18 | One or perhaps two shorter | practice periods an hour will be enough for today since they will be |
| W1:73.10 | We will begin our longer | practice periods with the recognition that God's plan for salvation, |
| W1:73.14 | with the power of God and united with your Self. Put the rest of the | practice period under Their guidance. Join with Them as They lead the |
| W1:73.15 | In the shorter | practice periods, again make a declaration of what you really want. |
| W1:74.3 | Begin the longer | practice periods by repeating these thoughts several times, slowly |
| W1:75.4 | Our longer | practice periods will be devoted to looking at the world which our |
| W1:75.5 | it we see Heaven's reflection lie across the world. Begin the longer | practice periods by telling yourself the glad tidings of your release: |
| W1:75.11 | The shorter | practice periods, too, will be joyful reminders of your release. |
| W1:76.8 | We will begin the longer | practice period today with a short review of the different kinds of |
| W1:76.12 | God's. Then we will tell ourselves as a dedication with which the | practice period concludes: |
| W1:77.4 | Begin the longer | practice periods by telling yourself quite confidently that you are |
| W1:77.7 | Our shorter | practice periods will be frequent and will also be devoted to a |
| W1:78.7 | Our longer | practice periods today will see him in this role. We will attempt to |
| W1:79.7 | In our longer | practice periods today, we will ask what the problem is and what is |
| W1:79.9 | The shorter | practice periods for today will not be set by time but by need. You |
| W1:80.4 | In our longer | practice periods today, we will claim the peace that must be ours |
| W1:R2.1 | one longer exercise period and frequent shorter ones in which we | practice each of them. |
| W1:R2.2 | The longer | practice periods will follow this general form: take about 15 minutes |
| W1:R2.2 | you find your mind wandering, but try to spend the major part of the | practice period listening quietly but attentively. |
| W1:R2.4 | Regard these | practice periods as dedications to the way, the truth, and the life. |
| W1:R2.5 | Reaffirm your determination in the shorter | practice periods as well, using the original form of the idea for |
| W1:91.6 | Begin the longer | practice periods with this statement of true cause and effect |
| W1:91.13 | Relax for the rest of the | practice period, confident that your efforts, however meager, are |
| W1:91.13 | you will feel the strength in you. They are united with you in this | practice period in which you share a purpose like Their own. Theirs |
| W1:92.10 | given you. Leave, then, the dark a little while today, and we will | practice seeing in the light, closing the body's eyes and asking |
| W1:92.11 | Morning and evening we will | practice thus. After the morning meeting, we will use the day in |
| W1:93.10 | Then put away your foolish self-images and spend the rest of the | practice period in trying to experience what God has given you in |
| W1:95.5 | Frequent but shorter | practice periods have other advantages for you at this time. In |
| W1:95.6 | of time is not the ideal requirement for the most beneficial form of | practice in salvation. It is advantageous, however, for those whose |
| W1:95.7 | We will therefore keep to the five minutes an hour | practice periods for a while and urge you to omit as few as possible. |
| W1:95.12 | in you in which there is no doubt that only this is true. Begin the | practice periods today with this assurance, given to your mind with |
| W1:97.1 | to weave opposing factors into unity. It simply states the truth. | Practice this truth today as often as you can, for it will bring your |
| W1:97.3 | we try to bring reality still closer to your mind. Each time you | practice, awareness is brought a little nearer at least; sometimes a |
| W1:97.11 | Offer each | practice period today gladly to Him. And He will speak to you, |
| W1:98.8 | you will go beyond their sound to what they really mean. Today you | practice with Him as you say: |
| W1:98.11 | that you have on earth as well as Heaven. He will be with you each | practice period you share with Him, exchanging every instant of the |
| W1:99.9 | You who will yet work miracles, be sure you | practice well the idea for today. Try to perceive the strength in |
| W1:99.11 | Practice His thought today, and let His Light seek out and lighten up | |
| W1:99.12 | Think of these things in practicing today, and start your longer | practice periods with this instruction in the way of truth: |
| W1:100.7 | face. We will prepare ourselves for this today in our five minute | practice periods by feeling happiness arise in us according to our |
| W1:100.11 | Do not forget the idea for today between your longer | practice periods. It is your Self Who calls to you today. And it is |
| W1:101.5 | You need the | practice periods today. The exercises teach sin is not real, and all |
| W1:101.6 | There is no sin. We | practice with this thought as often as we can today because it is the |

| W1:102.3 | For several days we will continue to devote our longer | practice periods to exercises planned to help you reach the happiness |
| W1:102.4 | Begin the longer | practice periods today with this acceptance of God's Will for you: |
| W1:104.4 | Our longer | practice periods today, the hourly five minutes given truth for your |
| W1:105.7 | Today our | practice periods will start a little differently. Begin today by |
| W1:106.8 | Today we | practice giving, not the way you understand it now, but as it is. |
| W1:107.9 | Today we | practice on the happy note of certainty that has been born of truth. |
| W1:108.7 | Today we | practice with the special case of giving and receiving. We will use |
| W1:108.8 | So we begin the | practice periods with the instruction for today and say: |
| W1:110.5 | the great restorer of the truth to the awareness of the world. | Practice today's idea with gratitude. This is the truth that comes to |
| W1:110.6 | For your five minute | practice periods, begin with this quotation from the text: |
| W1:R3.1 | have reviewed them all. We will observe a special format for these | practice periods, which you are urged to follow just as closely as |
| W1:R3.2 | Learning will not be hampered when you miss a | practice period because it is impossible at the appointed time. Nor |
| W1:R3.3 | But learning will be hampered when you skip a | practice period because you are unwilling to devote the time to it |
| W1:R3.4 | Those | practice periods which you have lost because you did not want to do |
| W1:R3.4 | hold more dear. When you withdraw the value given them, allow your | practice periods to be replacements for your litanies to them. They |
| W1:R3.9 | and perhaps of even greater value. You have been inclined to | practice only at appointed times and then go on your way to other |
| W1:R3.10 | the need to let your learning not lie idly by between your longer | practice periods. Attempt to give your daily two ideas a brief but |
| W1:R3.11 | the day as well. If you are shaken, think of it again. These | practice periods are planned to help you form the habit of applying |
| W1:121.8 | of the Teacher Who was given you to show the way to you. Today we | practice learning to forgive. If you are willing, you can learn today |
| W1:121.10 | Begin the longer | practice periods by thinking of someone you do not like, who seems to |
| W1:122.11 | Sink into happiness as you begin these | practice periods, for they hold out the sure rewards of questions |
| W1:126.8 | only catch a tiny glimpse of the release which lies in the idea we | practice for today, this is a day of glory for the world. |
| W1:127.6 | Today we | practice making free our minds of all the laws you think you must |
| W1:128.5 | Today we | practice letting go all thought of values we have given to the world. |
| W1:129.7 | Practice your willingness to make this change ten minutes in the | |
| W1:131.12 | This we acknowledge as we start upon our | practice periods. Begin with this: |
| W1:132.16 | Begin the 15 minute periods in which we | practice twice today with this: |
| W1:133.15 | Our two extended | practice periods of 15 minutes will begin with this: |
| W1:134.14 | Today we | practice true forgiveness that the time of joining be no more |
| W1:136.15 | with folly. It is found at any time—today, if you will choose to | practice giving welcome to the truth. This is our aim today. And we |
| W1:137.9 | gentle lessons teach how easily salvation can be yours, how little | practice you need undertake to let His laws replace the ones you made |
| W1:R4.6 | the sun, the silver of the moon on it by night. So do we start each | practice period in this review with readying our minds to understand |
| W1:R4.11 | and spend a quiet moment with it. Then repeat the two ideas you | practice for the day unhurriedly, with time enough to see the gifts |
| W1:R4.12 | pain to peace, from sin to holiness. God offers thanks to you who | practice thus the keeping of His Word. And as you give your mind to |
| W1:151.13 | We | practice wordlessly today, except at the beginning of the time you |
| W1:152.9 | Today we | practice true humility, abandoning the false pretense by which the |
| W1:153.15 | Today we | practice in a form we will maintain for quite a while. We will begin |
| W1:153.18 | In time, with | practice, you will never cease to think of Him and hear His loving |
| W1:154.11 | We | practice giving Him what He would have that we may recognize His |
| W1:155.14 | limitless His Love. In your name and His own, which are the same, we | practice gladly with this thought today: |
| W1:158.11 | its unseen holiness; its likeness shines with its immortal love. We | practice seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts |
| W1:161.1 | Today we | practice differently and take a stand against our anger, that our |
| W1:161.1 | room to love. Here is salvation in the simple words in which we | practice today's idea. Here is the answer to temptation which can |
| W1:161.11 | Today we | practice in a form we have attempted earlier. Your readiness is |
| W1:162.4 | Today we | practice simply. For the words we use are mighty, and they need no |
| W1:164.9 | surely want—you can exchange all suffering for joy this very day. | Practice in earnest, and the gift is yours. Would God deceive you? |
| W1:165.7 | Practice today in hope. For hope indeed is justified. Your doubts are | |
| W1:165.7 | God and not upon ourselves to give us certainty. And in His Name we | practice as His Word directs we do. His sureness lies beyond our |
| W1:R5.7 | if we keep in mind that This remains our goal, and as we | practice, it is This to which we are approaching. Let us raise our |
| W1:R5.10 | Release me as you | practice once again the thoughts I brought to you from Him Who sees |
| W1:R5.12 | it. You are His Son, completing His extension in your own. We | practice but an ancient truth we knew before illusion seemed to claim |
| W1:R5.14 | each day of our review. With this we start and end each period of | practice time. And with this thought we sleep, to waken once again |
| W1:R5.15 | but aids and to be used, except at the beginning and the end of | practice periods, but to recall the mind as needed to its purpose. We |
| W1:R5.15 | to its purpose. We place faith in the experience that comes from | practice, not the means we use. We wait for the experience and |
| W1:I2.1 | for total dedication all the time, as yet. But you are asked to | practice now in order to attain the sense of peace such unified |
| W1:181.3 | has no concern for us within this interval of time wherein we | practice changing our intent. We seek for innocence and nothing else. |
| W1:183.6 | there an altar which reaches to God Himself and to His Son. | Practice but this today; repeat God's Name slowly again and still |
| W1:185.8 | Today devote your | practice periods to careful searching of your mind to find the dreams |
| W1:188.8 | We | practice coming nearer to the light in us today. We take our |
| W1:189.1 | hidden from your sight. This light is a reflection of the thought we | practice now. To feel the Love of God within you is to see the world |
| W1:193.15 | have been gone too long, and we would linger here no more. And as we | practice, let us think about all things we saved to settle by |
| W1:196.2 | all things held in its sure protection, can be found in the idea we | practice for today. It may in fact appear to be a sign that |
| W1:196.9 | Salvation's song can certainly be heard in the idea we | practice for today. If it can but be you you crucify, you did not |
| W1:196.12 | you and the holy peace of God. How kind and merciful is the idea we | practice! Give it welcome, as you should, for it is your release. It |
| W1:198.9 | Today we | practice letting freedom come to make its home with you. The truth |
| W1:199.5 | Cherish today's idea, and | practice it today and every day. Make it a part of every practice |
| W1:199.5 | idea, and practice it today and every day. Make it a part of every | practice period you take. There is no thought that will not gain |
| W1:199.8 | you live forever. Would you not return your mind to this? Then | practice well the thought the Holy Spirit gives you for today. Your |
| W1:199.8 | weep no more, and Heaven offers thanks for the increase of joy your | practice brings even to it. And God Himself extends His Love and |
| W1:R6.1 | For this review, we take but one idea each day, and | practice it as often as is possible. Besides the time we give morning |
| W1:R6.3 | These | practice sessions, like our last review, are centered round a central |
| W1:R6.5 | world we see. Beyond this and a repetition of the special thought we | practice for the day, no form of exercise is urged except a deep |
| W1:R6.7 | you denied be given up in sure and quick exchange for the idea we | practice for the day. |
| W1:R6.11 | begin, and let us also not forget to Whom it has been given as we | practice day by day, advancing toward the goal He set for us, |
| W1:R6.11 | to teach us how to go, and trusting Him completely for the way each | practice period can best become a loving gift of freedom to the world. |
| W2:I.10 | Now is the need for | practice almost done. For in this final section we will come to |
| W2:232.2 | This is as every day should be. Today | practice the end of fear. Have faith in Him Who is your Father. Trust |
| M:16.3 | the framework of our course. After completion of the more structured | practice periods which the workbook contains, individual need becomes |

| W1:129.1 | This is the thought which follows from the one we | practiced yesterday. You cannot stop with the idea the world is |
| W1:134.13 | Forgiveness must be | practiced, for the world cannot perceive its meaning nor provide a |
| W1:134.19 | Forgiveness should be | practiced through the day, for there will be so many times when you |

| Tx:30.28 | judgment has forever been undone. But meanwhile, you have need for | practicing the rules for its undoing. Let us, then, consider once |
| W1:12.9 | Three or four times are enough for | practicing the idea for today. Nor should the practice periods exceed |
| W1:15.4 | In | practicing the idea for today, repeat it first to yourself, and then |
| W1:62.4 | Let us be glad to begin and end this day by | practicing today's idea and to use it as frequently as possible |
| W1:66.7 | false. Let us, then, think about the premises for a while, as we are | practicing. |
| W1:94.7 | If you do not meet the requirement of | practicing for the first five minutes of every hour, at least remind |
| W1:95.4 | The use of the first five minutes of every waking hour for | practicing the idea for the day has special advantages at the stage |
| W1:95.9 | lapses in diligence and our failures to follow the instructions for | practicing the day's idea. |
| W1:96.9 | by Him Who speaks to you from your One Self. Our hourly five minute | practicing will be a search for Him within your mind. Salvation comes |
| W1:98.7 | tiny gift of but five minutes. He will give the words you use in | practicing today's idea the deep conviction and the certainty you |
| W1:99.12 | Think of these things in | practicing today, and start your longer practice periods with this |
| W1:103.5 | Begin your periods of | practicing today with this association, which corrects the false |

| W1:R3.4 | changed your mind about your goal. You are unwilling to cooperate in | practicing salvation only if it interferes with goals you hold more |
| W1:R3.4 | for your litanies to them. They gave you nothing. But your | practicing can offer everything to you. And so accept its offering |
| W1:121.9 | the same. Yet we will try to learn today that they are one through | practicing forgiving toward one whom you think of as an enemy and one |
| W1:122.9 | Remembering the gifts forgiveness gives, we undertake our | practicing today with hope and faith that this will be the day |
| W1:124.8 | Peace be to you today. Secure your peace by | practicing awareness you are one with your Creator, as He is with |
| W1:125.9 | Only be quiet. You will need no rule but this to let your | practicing today lift you above the thinking of the world and free |
| W1:126.8 | is there. Give Him your faith today and ask Him that He share your | practicing in truth today. And if you only catch a tiny glimpse of |
| W1:134.14 | For we would meet with our reality in freedom and in peace. Our | practicing becomes the footsteps lightening up the way for all our |
| W1:134.18 | sin in him. And now you are prepared for freedom. If you have been | practicing thus far in willingness and honesty, you will begin to |
| W1:R4.10 | laid in it for you to have of Him. And we will use no format for our | practicing but this: |
| W1:R4.12 | Each day of | practicing, as we review, we close as we began, repeating first the |
| W1:152.12 | We think of truth alone as we arise and spend five minutes | practicing its ways, encouraging our frightened minds with this: |
| W1:153.20 | of purpose. We will pause a moment as He tells us, “I am here.” Your | practicing will now begin to take the earnestness of love to help you |
| W1:157.4 | He will direct your | practicing today, for what you ask for now is what He wills. And |
| W1:161.3 | Thus were specifics made. And now it is specifics we must use in | practicing. We give them to the Holy Spirit that He may employ them |
| W1:164.3 | How holy is your | practicing today, as Christ gives you His sight and hears for you and |
| W1:164.4 | has never touched. All this today you will remember. Faithfulness in | practicing today will bring rewards so great and so completely |
| W1:164.7 | but what is given us from judgment made beyond the world. Our | practicing today becomes our gift of thankfulness for our release |
| W1:164.8 | through His forgiving vision, now our own. Open the curtain in your | practicing by merely letting go all things you think you want. Your |
| W1:R5.2 | to You. We would but listen to Your Word and make it ours. Lead our | practicing as does a father lead a little child along a way he does |
| W1:R5.3 | So do we bring our | practicing to You. And if we stumble, You will raise us up. If we |
| W1:R5.3 | quickly unto You. And we accept the Word You offer us to unify our | practicing, as we review the thoughts that You have given us. |
| W1:181.3 | Therefore in | practicing today, we first let all such little focuses give way to |
| W1:181.5 | will believe will not intrude upon us now. We enter in the time of | practicing with one intent—to look upon the sinlessness within. We |
| W1:181.10 | sinlessness. We seek for this remembrance as we turn our minds to | practicing today. We look neither ahead nor backwards. We look |
| W1:184.9 | by them as well. They do not stand for anything at all, and in your | practicing, it is this thought that will release you from them. They |
| W1:184.12 | chose the teaching of the world to take the place of Heaven. In our | practicing, our purpose is to let our minds accept what He has given |
| W1:184.13 | have not interfered with truth at all. One Name we bring into our | practicing. One Name we use to unify our sight. |
| W1:184.14 | but One Name, Which He has given them. It is this Name we use in | practicing. And through Its use, all foolish separations disappear |
| W1:185.7 | Let us today devote our | practicing to recognizing that we really mean the words we say. We |
| W1:193.16 | Each hour spend a little time today, and in the days to come, in | practicing the lesson in forgiveness in the form established for the |
| W1:R6.2 | With this in mind, we start our | practicing in which we carefully review the thoughts the Holy Spirit |
| W1:R6.6 | We will attempt to get beyond all words and special forms of | practicing for this review. For we attempt this time to reach a |
| W1:R6.10 | add but few formal expressions for specific thoughts to aid your | practicing. Instead we give these times of quiet to the Teacher Who |
| W2:I.1 | reach the goal this course has set and find the end toward which our | practicing was geared. |
| W2:I.3 | our minds at need. Yet we will not content ourselves with simple | practicing in the remaining holy instants which conclude the year |
| W2:FL.1 | free of words as possible. We use them but at the beginning of our | practicing and only to remind us that we seek to go beyond them. Let |

| Tx:17.29 | recognize simply because you have raised their substitutes to such | predominance that when truth calls to you, as it does constantly, you |

| Tx:8.35 | that truth will assail them, and so they do not see it, because they | prefer the delusion. Judging truth as something they do not want, |

| Tx:16.34 | then the only choice which remains possible is which illusion you | prefer. There is no conflict in the choice between truth and |

| Tx:21.49 | look for, you are far more likely to discover than what you would | prefer to overlook. The still small Voice for God is not drowned out |
| Tx:23.31 | salvation. They hold in place the substitute for Heaven which you | prefer. This is their purpose; they were made for this. There is no |
| Tx:25.63 | you could, you'd have no need of Him. But this He needs—that you | prefer He take it than that you keep it for yourself alone and |

| Tx:27.39 | sin is real and answers in the form of preference. “Which sin do you | prefer? That is the one which you should choose. The others are not |

| Tx:8.75 | what the body is for. Sickness is meaningful only if the two basic | premises on which the ego's interpretation of the body rests are |
| Tx:8.75 | that the body is for attack and that you are a body. Without these | premises, sickness is completely inconceivable. |

| Tx:13.87 | will still think that you are separate from Him. You can feel His | Presence next to you but cannot know that you are one with Him. This |
| Tx:14.40 | placed other gods upon it. The temple still is holy, for the | Presence that dwells within it is Holiness. |
| Tx:14.41 | Holiness waits quietly for the return of them that love it. The | Presence knows they will return to purity and to grace. The |
| Tx:14.41 | Life. [Life is as holy as the Holiness by Which it was created.] The | Presence of Holiness lives in everything that lives, for Holiness |
| Tx:14.70 | lessons of guilt can abide in what He has established as holy by His | Presence. Thank God that He is there and works through you. And all |
| Tx:15.21 | for one instant, and you will never deny it again. Who can deny the | Presence of what the universe bows to in appreciation and gladness? |
| Tx:15.102 | nothing. No sacrifice of any kind of anyone is asked by Him. In His | Presence, the whole idea of sacrifice loses all meaning. For He is |
| Tx:15.102 | with Him there. Love must be total to give Him welcome, for the | Presence of Holiness creates the holiness which surrounds it. No fear |
| Tx:15.103 | and as powerful. Pain will be brought to us and disappear in our | presence, and without pain there can be no sacrifice. And without |
| Tx:16.23 | only if you deny what It has done that you could possibly deny Its | Presence. |
| Tx:17.55 | You stand together in the holy | presence of truth itself. Here is the goal, together with you. Think |
| Tx:18.31 | unto God to shine away the past and so make room for His eternal | Presence, in which everything is radiant in the light. |
| Tx:18.96 | was a time in which you knew it not. Learning is useless in the | Presence of your Creator, Whose acknowledgment of you and yours of |
| Tx:19.39 | will accept them in His Name. What need is there of seeing in the | presence of His gratitude? |
| Tx:19.88 | such seeming uncertainty of meaning, judge it not. Remember the holy | Presence of the One given to you to be the Source of judgment. Give |
| Tx:19.94 | to get rid of peace and drive the Holy Spirit from you fades in the | presence of the quiet recognition that you love Him. The exaltation |
| Tx:19.108 | Together we will disappear into the | Presence beyond the veil, not to be lost, but found; not to be seen, |

| Tx:24.4 | than you think, are there by your election. Do not deny their | presence nor their terrible results. All that can be denied is their |
| Tx:26.18 | one, without an opposite. And how could strife enter in its simple | presence and bring complexity where oneness is? The truth makes no |
| Tx:26.79 | a living temple in a world of light. Because of Them. It is Their | Presence which has lifted holiness again to take its ancient place |
| Tx:26.85 | What then remains to be undone for you to realize Their | Presence? Only this—you have a differential view of when attack is |
| Tx:26.85 | is not limited. If it occurs at all, it will be total. And its | presence, in whatever form, will hide Their Presence. They are known |
| Tx:26.85 | will be total. And its presence, in whatever form, will hide Their | Presence. They are known with clarity or not at all. Confused |
| Tx:26.85 | of the size of the confusion or how much it interferes. Its simple | presence shuts the door to Theirs and keeps Them there unknown. |
| Tx:26.86 | a cause or consequence and cannot have effects of any kind. Their | Presence is obscured by any veil which stands between Their shining |
| Tx:26.89 | unto the purpose given it. The Holy Spirit's purpose is to let the | Presence of your holy Guests be known to you. And to this purpose, |
| Tx:26.91 | By this do I deny the | Presence of the Father and the Son. And I would rather know of Them |
| Tx:26.91 | Son. And I would rather know of Them than see injustice which Their | Presence shines away. |
| Tx:27.26 | —the other half which is denied. And only what is left without his | presence is perceived as all of you. To this remaining half the Holy |
| Tx:27.64 | is maintained, is simply this: “You are the cause of what I do. Your | presence justifies my wrath, and you exist and think apart from me. |

| Tx:29.14 | what you now can do could not be done without the love and grace His | Presence holds. |
| Tx:30.84 | of meaning anywhere. Fear is a judgment never justified. Its | presence has no meaning but to show you wrote a fearful script and |

| W1:48.3 | The | presence of fear is a sure sign that you are trusting in your own |

| W1:96.9 | We will attempt today to find this thought, whose | presence in your mind is guaranteed by Him Who speaks to you from |

| Tx:12.27 | from them out of your own past because, by making it real in the | present, you are forbidding yourself to let it go. You thus deny |
| Tx:12.28 | the spots of pain in your minds, directing you to attack in the | present in retaliation for a past that is no more. And this decision |

| Tx:12.45 | a brother only as you see him now. His past has no reality in the | present, and you cannot see it. Your past reactions to him are also |
| Tx:12.46 | your past experience as the reference point from which to judge the | present. Yet this is unnatural because it is delusional. When you |

| Tx:13.23 | not salvation in the past. Would you impose your idle wishes on the | present and hope to find salvation now? |
| Tx:14.38 | decision to be not as you were. Thus, truth was made past, and the | present was dedicated to illusion. And the past, too, was changed and |
| Tx:14.60 | Learning is therefore in the past, but its influence determines the | present by giving it whatever meaning it holds for you. Your learning |
| Tx:14.60 | giving it whatever meaning it holds for you. Your learning gives the | present no meaning at all. Nothing you have ever learned can help you |
| Tx:14.60 | at all. Nothing you have ever learned can help you understand the | present or teach you how to undo the past. Your past is what you have |
| Tx:15.8 | thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the ego has made of the | present. The belief in hell is what prevents you from understanding |
| Tx:15.8 | The belief in hell is what prevents you from understanding the | present, because you are afraid of it. The Holy Spirit leads as |
| Tx:15.8 | as the ego drives to hell. For the Holy Spirit, Who knows only the | present, uses it to undo the fear by which the ego would make the |
| Tx:15.8 | present, uses it to undo the fear by which the ego would make the | present useless. There is no escape from fear in the ego's use of |
| Tx:15.9 | The Holy Spirit would undo all of this now. Fear is not of the | present but only of the past and future, which do not exist. There is |

| Tx:15.9 | which the Son of God emerges from the past into the present. And the | present extends forever. It is so beautiful and so clean and free of |

| Tx:16.73 | is insane is obvious. But what is less obvious to you is that the | present is useless to you while you pursue the ego's goal as its |
| Tx:17.20 | what remains is eternal. And the transformed past is made like the | present. No longer does the past conflict with now. This continuity |
| Tx:17.20 | longer does the past conflict with now. This continuity extends the | present by increasing its reality and its value in your perception of |
| Tx:17.24 | entering into a continuing, unholy alliance with the ego against the | present. For the present is forgiveness. Therefore, the relationships |
| Tx:17.24 | unholy alliance with the ego against the present. For the | present is forgiveness. Therefore, the relationships which the unholy |
| Tx:17.24 | perceived nor felt as now. Yet the frame of reference to which the | present is referred for meaning is an illusion of the past in which |
| Tx:17.24 | is thus let go is all the truth the past could ever offer to the | present as witnesses for its reality, while what is kept but |
| Tx:18.60 | quality. Time is not relevant; it can occur with something past, | present, or anticipated. The “something” can be anything and anywhere |
| Tx:18.65 | make it seem real. Time controls it entirely, for sin is never | present. In any single instant, the attraction of guilt would be |
| Tx:18.66 | for all of them look to the future for release from a state of | present unworthiness and inadequacy. |
| Tx:19.23 | from which escape will always be impossible. This is his past, his | present, and his future. For he has somehow managed to corrupt his |
| Tx:20.14 | that the Son of God is risen from the past and has awakened to the | present. Now is he free, unlimited in his communion with all that is |
| Tx:23.54 | and only love shines upon them forever. It is their past, their | present, and their future always the same, eternally complete, and |
| Tx:26.38 | Will of God? Can it be up to you to see the past and put it in the | present? You can not go back. And everything that points the way in |
| Tx:26.40 | not there? Now you are shifting back and forth between the past and | present. Sometimes the past seems real, as if it were the present. |
| Tx:26.40 | past and present. Sometimes the past seems real, as if it were the | present. Voices from the past are heard and then are doubted. You are |
| Tx:26.40 | the borderland between the worlds, the bridge between the past and | present. Here the shadow of the past remains, but still a present |
| Tx:26.40 | past and present. Here the shadow of the past remains, but still a | present light is dimly recognized. Once it is seen, this light can |
| Tx:26.40 | can never be forgotten. It must draw you from the past into the | present, where you really are. |
| Tx:26.42 | die each day to live again until you cross the gap between past and | present, which is not a gap at all. Such is each life—a seeming |
| Tx:26.71 | in future time. No more can it be overlooked except within the | present. Future loss is not your fear. But present joining is your |
| Tx:26.71 | except within the present. Future loss is not your fear. But | present joining is your dread. Who can feel desolation except now? A |
| Tx:26.71 | no effects. And therefore must it be that if you fear, there is a | present cause. And it is this that needs correction, not a future |
| Tx:26.72 | from healing. For a miracle is now. It stands already here in | present grace, within the only interval of time which sin and fear |
| Tx:26.76 | is senseless, and the “reasoning” which would maintain effects of | present cause must be delayed until a future time is merely a denial |
| Tx:26.82 | of all the spots on earth is where an ancient hatred has become a | present love. And They come quickly to the living temple, where a |
| Tx:28.4 | is there. Yet this is not a memory of past events, but only of a | present state. You are so long accustomed to believe that memory |
| Tx:28.5 | All of the strange associations made to keep the past alive, the | present dead, are stored within it, waiting your command that they be |
| Tx:28.6 | And yet you make strange use of it, as if the past had caused the | present, which is but a consequence in which no change can be made |
| Tx:28.6 | will endure or else it will not last. No change can be made in the | present if its cause is past. Only the past is held in memory as you |
| Tx:28.9 | could never be effects. The miracle reminds you of a Cause forever | present, perfectly untouched by time and interference—never changed |
| Tx:28.13 | is no past to keep its fearful image in the way of glad awakening to | present peace. The trumpets of eternity resound throughout the |
| Tx:28.13 | of God remembers from before his own remembering came in between the | present and the past to shut them out. |
| Tx:28.14 | Now is the Son of God at last aware of | present Cause and Its benign effects. Now does he understand what he |

| W1:46.13 | when you become aware of any kind of negative reaction to anyone, | present or not. In this event, tell him silently, |
| W1:52.4 | see as it is? Let me remember that I look on the past to prevent the | present from dawning on my mind. Let me understand that I am trying |
| W1:52.5 | only what is now. The choice is not whether to see the past or the | present: it is whether to see or not. What I have chosen to see has |
| W1:68.11 | whenever any thought of grievance arises against anyone, physically | present or not: |
| W1:72.5 | His plan for salvation be? What could it be but death? In trying to | present Himself as the Author of life and not of death, He is a liar |
| W1:79.4 | to keep the problem of separation unsolved. The world seems to | present you with a vast number of problems, each requiring a |

| W1:110.4 | In this one thought is all the past undone; the | present saved to quietly extend into a timeless future. If you are as |

| W1:132.3 | not want to find. The present now remains the only time. Here in the | present is the world set free. For as you let the past be lifted and |
| W1:135.2 | you attempt to plan the future, activate the past, or organize the | present as you wish. You operate from the belief you must protect |
| W1:135.16 | obtained from past events and previous beliefs. It overlooks the | present, for it rests on the idea the past has taught enough to let |
| W1:135.17 | old ideas and sick beliefs. Anticipation plays no part at all, for | present confidence directs the way. |
| W1:135.19 | if you but knew that everything that happens, all events, past, | present, and to come, are gently planned by One Whose only purpose is |
| W1:135.20 | Your | present trust in Him is the defense which promises a future |
| W1:135.20 | set in time but heeding only immortality. Let no defenses but your | present trust direct the future, and this life becomes a meaningful |
| W1:135.22 | We will anticipate that time today with | present confidence, for this is part of what was planned for us. We |
| W1:135.26 | You give up nothing in these times today when undefended you | present yourself to your Creator as you really are. |
| W1:156.2 | We are not inconsistent in the thoughts that we | present in our curriculum. Truth must be true throughout if it be |

| W1:169.6 | given and received completely. It returns the mind into the endless | present, where the past and future cannot be conceived. It lies |
| W1:181.4 | the future but imagined. These concerns are but defenses against | present change of focus in perception. Nothing more. |
| W1:181.10 | We look neither ahead nor backwards. We look straight into the | present. And we give our trust to the experience we ask for now. Our |
| W1:194.4 | God holds your future as He holds your past and | present. They are one to Him, and so they should be one to you. Yet |
| W1:194.4 | And you will see by your experience that you have laid the past and | present in His hands as well because the past will punish you no more |
| W1:194.5 | Release the future. For the past is gone, and what is | present, freed from its bequest of grief and misery, of pain and |
| W1:194.7 | For he who has escaped all fear of future pain has found his way to | present peace and certainty of care the world can never threaten. He |
| W2:243.1 | I will not think that I already know what must remain beyond my | present grasp. I will not think I understand the whole from bits of |
| W2:289.2 | that is not there. For You have offered me Your own replacement in a | present world the past has left untouched and free of sin. Here is |
| W2:290.1 | Unless I look upon what is not there, my | present happiness is all I see. Eyes that begin to open see at last. |
| W2:290.1 | the dream I made is real an instant longer. This the day I seek my | present happiness and look on nothing else except the thing I seek. |
| W2:293.1 | is gone and all its thoughts gone with it. Love remains the only | present state, whose Source is here forever and forever. Can the |

| W2:293.2 | underneath the sounds of fear. There is a real world which the | present holds safe from all past mistakes. And I would see only this |
| W2:WISC.4 | affect. For everyone who ever came to die or yet will come or who is | present now is equally released from what he made. In this equality |
| W2:308.1 | of Christ is now, without a past or future. He has come to give His | present blessing to the world, restoring it to timelessness and love. |
| W2:314.1 | from the past. The future now is recognized as but extension of the | present. Past mistakes can cast no shadows on it, so that fear has |
| W2:314.1 | needed means are happily provided. Who can grieve or suffer when the | present has been freed, extending its security and peace into a quiet |
| W2:314.2 | Father, we were mistaken in the past and choose to use the | present to be free. Now do we leave the future in Your hands, leaving |
| W2:314.2 | leaving behind our past mistakes and sure that You will keep Your | present promises and guide the future in their holy light. |

prevalent (1) | ||
| Tx:2.60 | the belief that release is imprisonment, a belief that is very | prevalent. This misperception arose from the underlying misbelief |

| Tx:7.100 | God Himself gave your minds through His you may deny, but you cannot | prevent. It is the logical outcome of what you are. The ability to |

| Tx:12.12 | call and leap into Heaven. You believe that attack is salvation to | prevent you from this. For still deeper than the ego's foundation, |
| Tx:12.27 | your brothers as though they were someone else, and this will surely | prevent you from perceiving them as they are. And you will receive |

| Tx:8.88 | this, and given this quite literally, there can be nothing which | prevents you from doing exactly what I ask, and everything which |
| Tx:15.8 | what the ego has made of the present. The belief in hell is what | prevents you from understanding the present, because you are afraid |
| Tx:25.14 | are not in this world? And yet your hope that they may still be here | prevents you still from giving up the hopeless and unrewarding task |

| W1:79.5 | Some spring up unexpectedly, just as you think you have resolved the | previous ones. Others remain unsolved under a cloud of denial and |
| W1:92.1 | The idea for today is an extension of the | previous one. You do not think of light in terms of strength and |
| W1:135.16 | controlled by learning and experience obtained from past events and | previous beliefs. It overlooks the present, for it rests on the idea |
| W1:181.3 | We do not care about our future goals, and what we saw an instant | previous has no concern for us within this interval of time wherein |
| M:7.2 | Should he be tempted to doubt this, he should not repeat his | previous effort. That was already maximal, because the Holy Spirit so |

| W1:79.2 | Who can see that a problem has been solved if he thinks the | problem is something else? Even if he is given the answer, he cannot |
| W1:79.3 | now. You have the answer, but you are still uncertain about what the | problem is. A long series of different problems seems to confront |
| W1:79.4 | temptation to regard problems as many is the temptation to keep the | problem of separation unsolved. The world seems to present you with a |
| W1:79.4 | answer. This perception places you in a position in which your | problem solving must be inadequate and failure must be inevitable. |
| W1:79.6 | All this complexity is but a desperate attempt not to recognize the | problem and therefore not to let it be resolved. If you could |
| W1:79.6 | not to let it be resolved. If you could recognize that your only | problem is separation, no matter what form it takes, you could accept |
| W1:79.6 | them all. And you would use the means because you recognize the | problem. |

| W1:80.1 | you must be at peace. Salvation does depend on recognizing this one | problem and understanding that it has been solved. One problem—one |

| W1:80.7 | Let me recognize this | problem has been solved. |
| W1:80.8 | The means is simple honesty. Do not deceive yourself about what the | problem is, and you must recognize it has been solved. |

| Tx:4.17 | joy because, once you have experienced it, you will withdraw all | protection from the ego and become totally without the investment in |

| W1:13.2 | meaning is to be written in the empty space which meaninglessness | provides. The ego rushes in frantically to establish its own “ideas” |
| W1:140.7 | what is sick so that it can be cured. There is no remedy the world | provides that can effect a change in anything. The mind that brings |

| Tx:27.4 | This sick and sorry picture you accept, if only it can serve to | punish him. The sick are merciless to everyone, and in contagion do |

| Tx:13.12 | you bring its condemnation of yourself, and you will not escape the | punishment it offers those who obey it. The ego rewards fidelity to |
| Tx:13.15 | the same, and the belief in one is faith in the other, calling for | punishment instead of love. Nothing can justify insanity, and to call |
| Tx:13.15 | instead of love. Nothing can justify insanity, and to call for | punishment upon yourself must be insane. |
| Tx:15.7 | For no one who considers himself as deserving hell can believe that | punishment will end in peace. |

| Tx:25.65 | and vengeance are the same, for sinners see justice only as their | punishment, perhaps sustained by someone else but not escaped. The |

| Tx:25.81 | The sight of innocence makes | punishment impossible and justice sure. The Holy Spirit's perception |
| Tx:26.48 | Guilt asks for | punishment, and its request is granted—not in truth but in the |

| Tx:14.13 | peace. Stand not outside but join with me within. Fail not the only | purpose to which my teaching calls you. Restore to God His Son as He |
| Tx:14.20 | made obscure. All things you made have use to Him for His most holy | purpose. He knows you are not separate from God, but He perceives |

| Tx:14.21 | communication, but rather the disruption of communication. If the | purpose of language is communication, how can this tongue mean |
| Tx:14.28 | you made them against it. His perception of them, according to His | purpose, merely changes them into a call for what you have attacked |
| Tx:14.31 | gentle fusing of everything into one meaning, one emotion, and one | purpose. God has one purpose which He shares with you. The single |
| Tx:14.31 | into one meaning, one emotion, and one purpose. God has one | purpose which He shares with you. The single vision which the Holy |
| Tx:15.45 | most useful learning device for teaching you love's meaning. For its | purpose is to suspend judgment entirely. Judgment always rests on the |
| Tx:15.66 | that anger makes friends. This is not its statement, but it is its | purpose. For the ego really believes that it can get and keep by |
| Tx:15.77 | since communication has been restored. And guilt, whose only | purpose is to disrupt communication, has no function here. |
| Tx:15.87 | the ego has for the body and to accept the fact that the ego has no | purpose you would share with it. For the ego would limit everyone to |
| Tx:15.87 | everyone to a body for its purposes, and while you think it has a | purpose, you will choose to utilize the means by which it tries to |
| Tx:15.87 | you will choose to utilize the means by which it tries to turn its | purpose into accomplishment. This will never be accomplished. Yet you |
| Tx:15.88 | and the ego, and release your power unto creation, which is the only | purpose for which it was given you. Love would always give increase. |
| Tx:16.32 | special love partner is acceptable only as long as he serves this | purpose. Hatred can enter and indeed is welcome in some aspects of |
| Tx:16.33 | ones as partners in any aspect of living and use them for any | purpose which they would not share with others, are trying to live |
| Tx:16.51 | specialness as an act of love would make love hateful. And the real | purpose of the special relationship, in strict accordance with the |
| Tx:16.71 | the illusion that it has not gone because you think it serves some | purpose that you want fulfilled. And it must also be that this |
| Tx:16.71 | some purpose that you want fulfilled. And it must also be that this | purpose could not be fulfilled in the present, but only in the past. |
| Tx:17.1 | all and did not change it. Fantasies change reality. That is their | purpose. They cannot do so in reality, but they can do so in the mind |
| Tx:17.9 | born of the new perspective he has learned, has served its | purpose. |
| Tx:17.14 | do not understand how they came into your minds and what their | purpose is. |
| Tx:17.16 | totally insane. Without exception, these relationships have as their | purpose the exclusion of the truth about the other and of yourself. |
| Tx:17.18 | almost at once. Once it is formed, doubt must enter in because its | purpose is impossible. The only such relationships which retain the |
| Tx:17.19 | the body as a means of communication into relationships whose only | purpose is separation from reality? What forgiveness is enables Him |
| Tx:17.24 | is an illusion of the past in which those elements which fit the | purpose of the unholy alliance are retained and all the rest let go. |
| Tx:17.26 | your goal of madness. Be not separate from me, and let not the holy | purpose of Atonement be lost to you in dreams of vengeance. |
| Tx:17.27 | you to make you happy, and nothing you do which does not share His | purpose can be real. The purpose God ascribed to anything is its only |
| Tx:17.27 | and nothing you do which does not share His purpose can be real. The | purpose God ascribed to anything is its only function. Because of His |
| Tx:17.28 | is clearly not to make happy. But the holy relationship shares God's | purpose, rather than aiming to make a substitute for it. Every |
| Tx:17.29 | relationship which you have ever undertaken has as its fundamental | purpose the aim of occupying your minds so completely that you will |
| Tx:17.30 | all your holy relationships been carefully preserved to serve God's | purpose for you. |
| Tx:17.33 | elaborate, all set with jewels and deeply carved and polished. Its | purpose is to be of value in itself and to divert your attention from |
| Tx:17.45 | it is, is out of line with its own goal and clearly unsuited to the | purpose which has been accepted for it. In its unholy condition, your |
| Tx:17.46 | by the recognition of its inappropriateness for meeting its new | purpose. The conflict between the goal and the structure of the |
| Tx:17.47 | each slow step according to its liking. Only a radical shift in | purpose could induce a complete change of mind about what the whole |
| Tx:17.47 | contemplate their relationship from the point of view of this new | purpose, they are inevitably appalled. Their perception of the |
| Tx:17.47 | the former organization of their perception no longer serves the | purpose they have agreed to meet. |
| Tx:17.48 | time. The goal is set. And your relationship has sanity as its | purpose. For now you find yourselves in an insane relationship, |
| Tx:17.50 | not understand, and let it be explained to you as you perceive its | purpose work in it to make it holy. You will find many opportunities |
| Tx:17.50 | “failure” of your relationship, for it will seem at times to have no | purpose. A sense of aimlessness will come to haunt you and to remind |
| Tx:17.55 | for its accomplishment? It is just this same discrepancy between the | purpose that has been accepted and the means as they stand now which |
| Tx:17.55 | because it is within, the gladness, too, is yours. You are joined in | purpose, but remain still separate and divided on the means. |
| Tx:17.57 | The practical application of the Holy Spirit's | purpose is extremely simple, but it is unequivocal. In fact in order |
| Tx:17.62 | faith. Faith is implicit in the acceptance of the Holy Spirit's | purpose, and this faith is all-inclusive. Where the goal of truth is |
| Tx:17.68 | Every situation in which you find yourself is but a means to meet the | purpose set for your relationship. See it as something else, and you |
| Tx:17.69 | too weak or too compelling, but will be gently turned to its use and | purpose. The universe will serve it gladly, as it serves the |
| Tx:17.71 | for faith. That Cause has entered any situation which shares Its | purpose. The light of truth shines from the center of the situation |
| Tx:17.71 | center of the situation and touches everyone to whom the situation's | purpose calls. It calls to everyone. There is no situation which does |
| Tx:17.71 | yourself outside it and keep the situation holy. For it shares the | purpose of your whole relationship and derives its meaning from it. |
| Tx:17.72 | your own relationship. Your faith will call the others to share your | purpose, as this same purpose called forth the faith in you. And you |
| Tx:17.72 | Your faith will call the others to share your purpose, as this same | purpose called forth the faith in you. And you will see the means you |
| Tx:17.72 | and faith makes room for truth.] When the Holy Spirit changed the | purpose of your relationship by exchanging yours for His, the goal He |
| Tx:17.74 | every situation is meant to be. The meaning which the Holy Spirit's | purpose has given it is also given to every situation. It calls forth |
| Tx:17.76 | is laid aside unused. And then the power of the Holy Spirit's | purpose is free to use instead. This power instantly transforms all |
| Tx:17.76 | situations into one sure and continuous means for establishing His | purpose and demonstrating its reality. What has been demonstrated has |
| Tx:17.78 | lack of faith in him must mean to you. His salvation is your only | purpose. See only this in every situation, and it will be a means for |
| Tx:17.79 | in it, for no one accepts what he does not believe is real. Your | purpose has not changed and will not change, for you accepted what |
| Tx:18.1 | between, renouncing one in favor of the other. For this special | purpose, one is judged more valuable and the other is replaced by |
| Tx:18.1 | in which the substitution occurred is thus fragmented and its | purpose split accordingly. To fragment is to exclude, and |
| Tx:18.13 | as you have accepted. The peace of God is given you with the glowing | purpose in which you join. The holy light that brought you together |
| Tx:18.20 | from you. [But He does use it differently, as a help to make His | purpose real to you.] Your special relationship will remain, not as a |
| Tx:18.21 | it will be extended. Think not that He has forgotten anyone in the | purpose He has given you. And think not that He has forgotten you to |
| Tx:18.21 | His gratitude! Or mine through His! For we are joined as in one | purpose, being of one mind with Him. |
| Tx:18.22 | has become one in which the wish has been removed because its | purpose has been changed from one of dreams to one of truth. You are |
| Tx:18.41 | and all the means by which salvation is accomplished would have no | purpose. For they are all but aspects of the plan to change your |
| Tx:18.43 | God wills it. Nor will He change His Mind about it. The means and | purpose both belong to Him. You have accepted one; the other will be |
| Tx:18.43 | belong to Him. You have accepted one; the other will be provided. A | purpose such as this without the means is inconceivable. He will |
| Tx:18.43 | is inconceivable. He will provide the means to anyone who shares His | purpose. |
| Tx:18.44 | be done,” and not, “I want it otherwise.” The alignment of means and | purpose is an undertaking impossible for you to understand. You do |
| Tx:18.44 | You do not even realize you have accepted the Holy Spirit's | purpose as your own, and you would merely bring unholy means to its |
| Tx:18.44 | to its accomplishment. The little faith it needed to change the | purpose is all that is required to receive the means and use them. |
| Tx:18.66 | All such attempts will ultimately succeed because of their | purpose. Yet the means are tedious and very time consuming, for all |
| Tx:18.67 | Your way will be different, not in | purpose but in means. A holy relationship is a means of saving time. |
| Tx:18.87 | Him not to abandon you and leave you there. For it is not His | purpose to frighten you, but only yours. You are severely tempted to |
| Tx:18.97 | has been uprooted from the world of shadows, and its unholy | purpose has been safely brought through the barriers of guilt, washed |
| Tx:18.98 | else, and memory will be as useless as learning, for your only | purpose will be creating. Yet this you cannot know until every |
| Tx:18.98 | to the bright world of new and clean perception. There is your | purpose now. And it is there that peace awaits you. |
| Tx:19.2 | it, and so He heals through you. It is this joining Him in a united | purpose which makes this purpose real because you make it whole. And |
| Tx:19.2 | you. It is this joining Him in a united purpose which makes this | purpose real because you make it whole. And this is healing. The body |
| Tx:19.3 | or sickness depends entirely on how the mind perceives it and the | purpose which the mind would use it for. And it is obvious that a |
| Tx:19.3 | a segment of the mind can see itself as separated from the Universal | Purpose. When this occurs, the body becomes its weapon used against |
| Tx:19.3 | When this occurs, the body becomes its weapon used against this | Purpose to demonstrate the “fact” that separation has occurred. The |
| Tx:19.4 | being healed. Your faithlessness has thus opposed the Holy Spirit's | purpose and brought illusions centered on the body to stand between |
| Tx:19.11 | appears just as he is perceived in the holy instant, united in your | purpose to be released from guilt. You saw the Christ in him, and he |
| Tx:19.13 | Your holy relationship, with its new | purpose, offers you faith to give unto each other. Your faithlessness |
| Tx:19.16 | is its jailor or its liberator, according to which it chooses as its | purpose for itself. |
| Tx:19.19 | make him really guilty. That is what sin would do, for such is its | purpose. Yet for all the wild insanity inherent in the whole idea of |
| Tx:19.21 | others serve. Here is its armor, its protection, and the fundamental | purpose of the special relationship in its interpretation. |
| Tx:19.33 | to Him and to each other. Your holy relationship has as its | purpose now the goal of proving this is impossible. Heaven has smiled |
| Tx:19.37 | past completely unhindered. The extension of the Holy Spirit's | purpose from your relationship to others to bring them gently in [has |
| Tx:19.42 | The Holy Spirit's | purpose rests in peace within you. Yet you are still unwilling to let |
| Tx:19.42 | back the universe and its Creator. This little wall would hide the | purpose of Heaven and keep it from Heaven. |
| Tx:19.43 | without hindrance. Salvation cannot be withheld from you. It is your | purpose. You cannot will apart from this. You have no purpose apart |
| Tx:19.43 | It is your purpose. You cannot will apart from this. You have no | purpose apart from each other nor apart from the one you asked the |
| Tx:19.44 | holy relationship. Do not attempt to stand between Him and His holy | purpose, for it is yours. But let Him quietly extend the miracle of |
| Tx:19.46 | aimlessly, can land and settle briefly upon anything, for it has no | purpose now. Before the Holy Spirit entered to abide with you, it |
| Tx:19.46 | Holy Spirit entered to abide with you, it seemed to have a mighty | purpose; the fixed and unchangeable dedication to sin and its |
| Tx:19.69 | neither pain nor joy. It is a means and not an end. It has no | purpose of itself, but only what is given to it. The body will seem |
| Tx:19.69 | reaching the goal that you assign to it. [Only the mind can set a | purpose, and only mind can see the means for its accomplishment and |
| Tx:19.71 | the invitation to pain. For it invites fear to enter and become your | purpose. The attraction of guilt must enter with it, and whatever |
| Tx:19.79 | not to death nor to its master. When you accepted the Holy Spirit's | purpose in place of the ego's, you renounced death, exchanging it for |
| Tx:19.82 | body incorruptible and perfect as long as it is useful for your holy | purpose. The body no more dies than it can feel. It does nothing. Of |
| Tx:19.83 | the hardest can be accomplished first? The body can but serve your | purpose. As you look upon it, so will it seem to be. Death, were it |
| Tx:19.86 | to fulfill the mighty task for which it was given you. Your newborn | purpose is nursed by angels, cherished by the Holy Spirit, and |
| Tx:19.98 | Let us join together in a holy instant, here in this place where the | purpose given in a holy instant has led you. And let us join in faith |
| Tx:19.99 | Yet merely to reach the place is not enough. A journey without a | purpose is still meaningless, and even when it is over, it seems to |
| Tx:19.99 | no sense. How can you know that it is over unless you realize its | purpose is accomplished? Here, with the journey's end before you, you |
| Tx:19.99 | accomplished? Here, with the journey's end before you, you see its | purpose. And it is here you choose whether to look upon it or wander |
| Tx:19.108 | established for salvation will be left undone. This is the journey's | purpose, without which is the journey meaningless. Here is the peace |
| Tx:19.110 | safely within the sure protection of his Father. Here is the only | purpose that gives this world and the long journey through this world |
| Tx:19.110 | You stand together, still without conviction they have a | purpose. Yet it is given you to see this purpose in your holy Friend |
| Tx:19.110 | conviction they have a purpose. Yet it is given you to see this | purpose in your holy Friend and recognize it is your own. |
| Tx:20.2 | no dark sign of crucifixion intervene between the journey and its | purpose; between the acceptance of the truth and its expression. This |
| Tx:20.9 | for and received another sight. Those who accept the Holy Spirit's | purpose as their own share also His vision. And what enables Him to |
| Tx:20.9 | as their own share also His vision. And what enables Him to see His | purpose shine forth from every altar now is yours as well as His. He |
| Tx:20.22 | into the home of truth, and who will wander off. He came without a | purpose, but he will not remain before the shining light the Holy |
| Tx:20.24 | holiness that shone in both of you to bless the other? That is the | purpose of your holy relationship. Ask not the means of its |
| Tx:20.33 | special function in the Holy Spirit's plan, now that it shares His | purpose. And as this purpose is fulfilled, a new world rises in which |
| Tx:20.33 | the Holy Spirit's plan, now that it shares His purpose. And as this | purpose is fulfilled, a new world rises in which sin can enter not, |
| Tx:20.34 | This is the | purpose given you. Think not that your forgiveness of each other |
| Tx:20.36 | take thought for nothing, careless of everything except the only | purpose that you would fulfill. As that was given you, so will its |
| Tx:20.37 | of joining is a mighty herald of eternity. No one who has a single | purpose, unified and sure, can be afraid. No one who shares his |
| Tx:20.37 | purpose, unified and sure, can be afraid. No one who shares his | purpose with him can not be one with him. |
| Tx:20.41 | The sight that sees the body has no use which serves the | purpose of a holy relationship. And while you look upon each other |
| Tx:20.51 | is not threatened. You are idolaters no longer. The Holy Spirit's | purpose lies safe in your relationship and not your bodies. You have |
| Tx:20.58 | the Holy Spirit's goal will come from the same Source as does His | purpose. Being so simple and direct, this course has nothing in it |
| Tx:20.59 | it, you are refusing to leave the means to Him Who changed the | purpose. You recognize you want the goal. Are you not also willing to |
| Tx:20.59 | the means? If you are not, let us admit that you are inconsistent. A | purpose is attained by means, and if you want a purpose, you must be |
| Tx:20.59 | are inconsistent. A purpose is attained by means, and if you want a | purpose, you must be willing to want the means as well. How can one |
| Tx:20.60 | are second to the goal. And when you hesitate, it is because the | purpose frightens you, and not the means. Remember this, for |
| Tx:20.60 | remember that if you think they are impossible, your wanting of the | purpose has been shaken. For if a goal is possible to reach, the |
| Tx:20.62 | seem real. The unholy instant is the time of bodies. But the | purpose here is sin. It cannot be attained but in illusion, and so |
| Tx:20.62 | so the illusion of a brother as a body is quite in keeping with the | purpose of unholiness. Because of this consistency, the means remain |
| Tx:20.64 | imagining and vision. The difference lies not in them, but in their | purpose. Both are but means, each one appropriate to the end for |
| Tx:20.64 | to the end for which it is employed. Neither can serve the | purpose of the other, for each one is a choice of purpose, employed |
| Tx:20.64 | can serve the purpose of the other, for each one is a choice of | purpose, employed on its behalf. Either is meaningless without the |
| Tx:20.65 | and have denied the means the Holy Spirit offers you to serve His | purpose. How can a holy relationship achieve its purpose through the |
| Tx:20.65 | you to serve His purpose. How can a holy relationship achieve its | purpose through the means of sin? Judgment you taught yourself; |
| Tx:20.65 | seem real there. You closed your eyes to shut him out. Such was your | purpose, and while this purpose seems to have any meaning, the means |
| Tx:20.65 | your eyes to shut him out. Such was your purpose, and while this | purpose seems to have any meaning, the means for its attainment will |
| Tx:20.68 | to you. As it was given you, so will be its effects. And as its holy | purpose was not made by you, the means by which its happy end is |
| Tx:20.69 | will come to all who ask for it with real desire and sincerity of | purpose, shared with the Holy Spirit and at one with Him on what |
| Tx:20.70 | that what God willed and gave you shall be yours. This is your | purpose now, and the vision that makes it yours is ready to be given. |
| Tx:20.72 | for everything He looks upon is always sure. For it will meet His | purpose, seen in unadjusted form and suited perfectly to meet it. |
| Tx:20.72 | of your salvation, will be deprived of meaning, and its most holy | purpose bereft of means for its accomplishment. |
| Tx:20.74 | are released from them. One thing is sure—hallucinations serve a | purpose, and when that purpose is no longer held, they disappear. |
| Tx:20.74 | One thing is sure—hallucinations serve a purpose, and when that | purpose is no longer held, they disappear. Therefore, the question |
| Tx:20.74 | question never is whether you want them, but always, do you want the | purpose which they serve? This world seems to hold out many purposes, |
| Tx:20.76 | for all the terrifying sights and screaming sounds the ego's | purpose brought to your horrified awareness. They step away from sin, |
| Tx:21.24 | goal of sin induces the perception of a fearful world to justify its | purpose. What you desire you will see. And if its reality is false, |
| Tx:21.25 | is denied, confusion of cause and effect becomes inevitable. The | purpose now becomes to keep obscure the cause of the effect and make |
| Tx:21.29 | you attempt to ease the guilt that comes from the accepted | purpose of the relationship. And that is why the Holy Spirit must |
| Tx:21.29 | of the relationship. And that is why the Holy Spirit must change its | purpose to make it useful to Him and harmless unto you. |
| Tx:21.30 | imagine that you still experience its effects, but it is not your | purpose, and you no longer want it. No one allows a purpose to be |
| Tx:21.30 | it is not your purpose, and you no longer want it. No one allows a | purpose to be replaced while he desires it, for nothing is so |
| Tx:21.34 | to find it. But as He uses them, they lead away from sin because His | purpose lies in the opposite direction. He sees the means you use but |
| Tx:21.34 | in the opposite direction. He sees the means you use but not the | purpose for which you made them. He would not take them from you, for |
| Tx:21.37 | the Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how they think their | purpose is accomplished. Brothers, the Holy Spirit knows that |
| Tx:21.39 | the Holy Spirit is concerned with this? He gives not what it is His | purpose to lead you from. You think He would deprive you for your |
| Tx:21.44 | your reason tells you now, the ego would not hear. The Holy Spirit's | purpose was accepted by the part of your mind the ego knows not of. |
| Tx:21.44 | How, otherwise, could it have been willing to see the Holy Spirit's | purpose as its own? |
| Tx:21.45 | you recognize that it was not the ego that joined the Holy Spirit's | purpose, and so there must be something else. Think not that this is |
| Tx:21.53 | it must exist. And if it exists for you and has your freedom as the | purpose given it, you must be free to find it. |
| Tx:21.55 | gone past this. Reason is a means which serves the Holy Spirit's | purpose in its own right. It is not reinterpreted and redirected from |
| Tx:21.57 | your Father's to the undoing of insanity. Here was the Holy Spirit's | purpose accepted and accomplished both at once. Reason is alien to |
| Tx:21.58 | room made way for vision. Vision extends beyond itself, as does the | purpose which it serves and all the means for its accomplishment. |
| Tx:21.63 | brother, and if you think it does, you are insane. But madness has a | purpose and believes it also has the means to make its purpose real. |
| Tx:21.63 | madness has a purpose and believes it also has the means to make its | purpose real. To see the body as a barrier between what reason tells |
| Tx:21.65 | given you to understand that this is so. For reason, kind as is the | purpose for which it is the means, leads steadily away from madness |
| Tx:22.20 | reason, if escape from guilt was given to the Holy Spirit as His | purpose, and by One to Whom nothing He wills can be impossible, the |
| Tx:22.21 | be made complete. For if you have the means to let the Holy Spirit's | purpose be accomplished, they can be used. And through their use will |
| Tx:22.38 | went before you reached the branch, you will go nowhere. The whole | purpose of coming this far was to decide which branch you will take |
| Tx:23.4 | these meaningless distractions, lay Heaven aside? Your destiny and | purpose are far beyond them in the clean place where littleness does |
| Tx:23.4 | beyond them in the clean place where littleness does not exist. Your | purpose is at variance with littleness of any kind. And so it is at |
| Tx:23.8 | and will seem to have replaced love there. This is the conflict's | purpose. And to those who think that it is possible, the means seem |
| Tx:23.19 | is essential it be understood what they are for, because it is their | purpose to make meaningless and to attack the truth. Here are the |
| Tx:23.30 | and there is only one. And all your relationships have but the | purpose of seizing it and making it your own. |
| Tx:23.31 | in place the substitute for Heaven which you prefer. This is their | purpose; they were made for this. There is no point in asking what |
| Tx:23.41 | the source of pain. Attack in any form is equally destructive. Its | purpose does not change. Its sole intent is murder, and what form of |
| Tx:23.41 | on his intent in nightmares where the smiles are gone and where the | purpose rises to meet his horrified awareness and pursue him still. |
| Tx:23.43 | the idea of compromise but enter, and the awareness of salvation's | purpose is lost because it is not recognized. It is denied where |
| Tx:23.45 | is saved? Would they be willing to accept the fact their savage | purpose is directed against themselves? No one unites with enemies |
| Tx:23.45 | themselves? No one unites with enemies nor is at one with them in | purpose. And no one compromises with an enemy but hates him still for |
| Tx:23.50 | is not your will. The overlooking of the battleground is now your | purpose. |
| Tx:23.53 | see. For only bodies could attack and murder, and if this is your | purpose, then you must be one with them. Only a purpose unifies, and |
| Tx:23.53 | and if this is your purpose, then you must be one with them. Only a | purpose unifies, and those who share a purpose have a mind as one. |
| Tx:23.53 | must be one with them. Only a purpose unifies, and those who share a | purpose have a mind as one. The body has no purpose and must be |
| Tx:23.53 | and those who share a purpose have a mind as one. The body has no | purpose and must be solitary. From below, it cannot be surmounted. |
| Tx:23.53 | the Father and the Heaven He created for His Son because it has no | purpose. |
| Tx:23.54 | Think what is given those who share their Father's | purpose and who know that it is theirs! They want for nothing. Sorrow |
| Tx:24.3 | is extension. To withhold the smallest gift is not to know love's | purpose. Love offers everything forever. Hold back but one belief, |
| Tx:24.8 | as yours? You are his enemy in specialness; his friend in a shared | purpose. Specialness can never share, for it depends on goals that |
| Tx:24.8 | you. God gave you both Himself, and to remember this is now the only | purpose that you share. And so it is the only one you have. |
| Tx:24.10 | malice or stab of hate or wish to separate arises here. For here the | purpose which you share becomes obscured from both of you. You would |
| Tx:24.10 | oppose this course because it teaches you you are alike. You have no | purpose that is not the same and none your Father does not share with |
| Tx:24.23 | is the seal of treachery upon the gift of love. Whatever serves its | purpose must be given to kill. No gift that bears its seal but offers |
| Tx:24.23 | and serve it faithfully. And no relationship that holds its | purpose dear but clings to murder as safety's weapon and the great |
| Tx:24.35 | What could the | purpose of the body be but specialness? And it is this that makes it |
| Tx:24.35 | The goal of separation is its curse. Yet bodies have no goal. | Purpose is of the mind. And minds can change as they desire. What |
| Tx:24.35 | and all their attributes, they cannot change. But what they hold as | purpose can be changed, and body states must shift accordingly. Of |
| Tx:24.36 | to those who wish to heal and not attack, it is quite obvious. The | purpose of attack is in the mind, and its effects are felt but where |
| Tx:24.36 | but where it is. Nor is mind limited; so must it be that harmful | purpose hurts the mind as one. Nothing could make less sense to |
| Tx:24.36 | could make more sense to miracles. For miracles are merely change of | purpose from hurt to healing. |
| Tx:24.37 | This shift in | purpose does “endanger” specialness, but only in the sense that all |
| Tx:24.44 | too, as much as yours. And yet, because they serve a different | purpose, the strength their purpose holds is given them. And what |
| Tx:24.44 | And yet, because they serve a different purpose, the strength their | purpose holds is given them. And what they see and hear and hold and |
| Tx:24.52 | the healing of God's Son is all the world is for. That is the only | purpose the Holy Spirit sees in it and thus the only one it has. |
| Tx:24.52 | Father nor yourself. For you will use the world for what is not its | purpose and will not escape its laws of violence and death. Yet it is |
| Tx:24.57 | your deliverance may not be long. A senseless wandering, without a | purpose and without accomplishment of any kind, is all the other |
| Tx:24.61 | clearly, judging against the Christ and setting forth for you the | purpose that you can attain and what you cannot do. Forget not that |
| Tx:24.61 | to see. Out of His lack of conflict comes your peace. And from His | purpose comes the means for effortless accomplishment and rest. |
| Tx:24.65 | hate, and you condemn it to decay and death. And if you see this | purpose in your brother's, such is your condemnation of your own. |
| Tx:24.66 | cannot be attacked; what is but temporal has no effect. Only the | purpose that you see in it has meaning, and if that is true, its |
| Tx:24.66 | and if that is true, its safety rests secure. If not, it has no | purpose and is means for nothing. Whatever is perceived as means for |
| Tx:24.66 | as itself. Nor will that light go out when it is gone. Its holy | purpose gave it immortality, setting another light in Heaven, where |
| Tx:24.67 | meaning of itself, yet you can give reality to it according to the | purpose which you serve. Here you are but means, along with it. God |
| Tx:24.68 | still retains one unlearned lesson in his memory, one thought with | purpose still uncertain, or one wish with a divided aim. |
| Tx:24.69 | is yours will come to you when you are ready. Here are the means and | purpose separate because they were so made and so perceived. And |
| Tx:24.69 | be kept in mind that all perception still is upside down until its | purpose has been understood. Perception does not seem to be a means. |
| Tx:24.71 | Thus does the “son” become the means to serve his “father's” | purpose. Not identical, not even like, but still a means to offer to |
| Tx:24.71 | Son's creation gave Him joy and witness to His love and shared His | purpose, so does the body testify to the idea that made it and speak |
| Tx:24.72 | nor where they go, nor even what they do. They have a different | purpose. It is this that joins them to their like and separates each |
| Tx:24.72 | to their like and separates each from all aspects with a different | purpose. The Son of God retains His Father's Will. The son of man |
| Tx:24.72 | you to make a different choice and use perception for a different | purpose. And what you see will serve that purpose well and prove its |
| Tx:24.72 | perception for a different purpose. And what you see will serve that | purpose well and prove its own reality to you. |
| Tx:25.1 | No more can you. Christ is within a frame of holiness whose only | purpose is that He may be made manifest to those who know Him not, |
| Tx:25.3 | sick indeed! And it is here that Christ sets forth the remedy. His | purpose folds the body in His light and fills it with the holiness |
| Tx:25.6 | to you as you would have you be. And always is it faithful to your | purpose from which it never separates nor gives the slightest witness |
| Tx:25.6 | it never separates nor gives the slightest witness unto anything the | purpose in your mind upholdeth not. Perception is a part of what it |
| Tx:25.6 | in your mind upholdeth not. Perception is a part of what it is your | purpose to behold, for means and end are never separate. And thus you |
| Tx:25.9 | The Holy Spirit serves Christ's | purpose in your mind, so that the aim of specialness can be corrected |
| Tx:25.9 | of specialness can be corrected where the error lies. Because His | purpose still is one with both the Father and the Son, He knows the |
| Tx:25.15 | up so that it can be seen. A frame that hides the picture has no | purpose. It cannot be a frame if it is what you see. Without the |
| Tx:25.15 | you see. Without the picture is the frame without its meaning. Its | purpose is to set the picture off and not itself. |
| Tx:25.17 | to its Creator, one with Him and with His masterpiece. This is its | purpose, and you do not make the frame into the picture when you |
| Tx:25.17 | see it in its place. The frame that God has given it but serves His | purpose, not yours apart from His. It is your separate purpose that |
| Tx:25.17 | serves His purpose, not yours apart from His. It is your separate | purpose that obscures the picture and cherishes the frame instead of |
| Tx:25.20 | of God Himself is freely offered to everyone who shares His | purpose. It is not His Will to be alone. And neither is it yours. |
| Tx:25.22 | Himself is one and not divided in His Will. And you must have one | purpose, since He gave the same to both of you. His Will is brought |
| Tx:25.25 | it, and they do not see it as the same. To each it has a different | purpose, and to each it is a perfect means to serve the goal for |
| Tx:25.26 | has God protected still His Son, even in error. There is another | purpose in the world that error made because it has another Maker Who |
| Tx:25.26 | it has another Maker Who can reconcile its goal with His Creator's | purpose. In His perception of the world, nothing is seen but |
| Tx:25.29 | your peace and many chances to extend your own forgiveness. Such its | purpose is to those who want to see peace and forgiveness descend on |
| Tx:25.31 | forgivable or not? Does he need help or condemnation? Is it your | purpose that he be saved or damned? Forgetting not that what he is to |
| Tx:25.31 | a goal. Make then your choice. But recognize that in this choice the | purpose of the world you see is chosen and will be justified. |
| Tx:25.32 | innocence they see. And thus they seek for it because it is their | purpose to behold it and rejoice. Everyone seeks for what will bring |
| Tx:25.33 | The Son of God creates to bring him joy, sharing his Father's | purpose in his own creation that his joy might be increased and God's |
| Tx:25.37 | as other than he is. The need for guilt is gone because it has no | purpose and is meaningless without the goal of sin. Attack and sin |
| Tx:25.83 | from healing. Who is there who can be separate from salvation if its | purpose is the end of specialness? Where is salvation's justice if |
| Tx:26.5 | to truth instead of to illusion merely ask that they might see a | purpose in the world that gives it sense and makes it meaningful. |
| Tx:26.10 | many forms, and it will do so while the problem lasts. It serves no | purpose to attempt to solve it in a special form. It will recur and |
| Tx:26.22 | goal this course has set. It will not go beyond this aim. Its only | purpose is to teach what is the same and what is different, leaving |
| Tx:26.24 | your special function, where the separation is undone by change of | purpose in what once was specialness and now is union? All illusions |
| Tx:26.30 | same. Yet teaching that is what this course is for. This is its only | purpose, for only that is all there is to learn. And you can learn it |
| Tx:26.31 | gate is difficult at all. Nothing you undertake with certain | purpose and high resolve and happy confidence, holding each other's |
| Tx:26.31 | and miserable, down a road which leads to nothing and which has no | purpose. |
| Tx:26.47 | And as such, the laws of healing must be understood before the | purpose of the course can be accomplished. Let us review the |
| Tx:26.62 | Illusions serve the | purpose they were made to serve. And from their purpose, they derive |
| Tx:26.62 | Illusions serve the purpose they were made to serve. And from their | purpose, they derive whatever meaning that they seem to have. God |
| Tx:26.62 | they seem to have. God gave to all illusions that were made another | purpose that would justify a miracle, whatever form they took. In |
| Tx:26.70 | of it, believing that the risk of loss is great between the time its | purpose is made yours and its effects will come to you. In this form |
| Tx:26.72 | for safety all are laid within the future, where you cannot plan. No | purpose has been given it as yet, and what will happen has as yet no |
| Tx:26.73 | of the working out can seem to take forever. The change of | purpose the Holy Spirit brought to your relationship has in it all |
| Tx:26.74 | until the time of liberation is at hand. Given a change of | purpose for the good, there is no reason for an interval in which |
| Tx:26.76 | is changed and what it is cannot be recognized. The Holy Spirit's | purpose now is yours. Should not His happiness be yours as well? |
| Tx:26.80 | thousand years to Them, or tens of thousands? When They come, time's | purpose is fulfilled. What never was passes to nothingness when They |
| Tx:26.84 | to what is Theirs and will forever be. Now is the Holy Spirit's | purpose done. For They have come! For They have come at last! |
| Tx:26.89 | to make the other innocent. And in this game do you perceive one | purpose for your whole relationship. And this you seek to add unto |
| Tx:26.89 | for your whole relationship. And this you seek to add unto the | purpose given it. The Holy Spirit's purpose is to let the Presence of |
| Tx:26.89 | this you seek to add unto the purpose given it. The Holy Spirit's | purpose is to let the Presence of your holy Guests be known to you. |
| Tx:26.89 | to let the Presence of your holy Guests be known to you. And to this | purpose, nothing can be added, for the world is purposeless except |
| Tx:26.89 | this. To add or take away from this one goal is but to take away all | purpose from the world and from yourself. And each unfairness that |
| Tx:26.90 | deprived of light, abandoned to the dark, unfairly left without a | purpose in a futile world. The world is fair because the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:27.5 | are cannot be seen nor pictured. Yet this one has not been used for | purpose of attack and therefore never suffered pain at all. It |
| Tx:27.7 | but wish for death that is the motivation for this world. Its only | purpose is to prove guilt real. No worldly thought or act or feeling |
| Tx:27.10 | it all signs of accusation and of blamefulness. Pictured without a | purpose, it is seen as neither sick nor well, nor bad nor good. No |
| Tx:27.10 | experience of fear or love. For now it witnesses to nothing yet, its | purpose being open and the mind made free again to choose what it is |
| Tx:27.10 | to choose what it is for. Now is it not condemned, but waiting for a | purpose to be given that it may fulfill the function that it will |
| Tx:27.11 | of breathing in the fetid scent of death. Let it have healing as its | purpose. Then will it send forth the message it received and by its |
| Tx:27.12 | way to let this be achieved is merely this—to let the body have no | purpose from the past, when you were sure you knew its purpose was to |
| Tx:27.12 | body have no purpose from the past, when you were sure you knew its | purpose was to foster guilt. For this insists your crippled picture |
| Tx:27.12 | represents. This leaves no space in which a different view, another | purpose, can be given it. You do not know its purpose. You but gave |
| Tx:27.12 | view, another purpose, can be given it. You do not know its | purpose. You but gave illusions of a purpose to a thing you made to |
| Tx:27.12 | given it. You do not know its purpose. You but gave illusions of a | purpose to a thing you made to hide your function from yourself. This |
| Tx:27.12 | you made to hide your function from yourself. This thing without a | purpose cannot hide the function that the Holy Spirit gave. Let, |
| Tx:27.12 | cannot hide the function that the Holy Spirit gave. Let, then, its | purpose and your function both be reconciled at last and seen as one. |
| Tx:27.24 | And thus He represents the other half and seems to have a different | purpose from the one you cherish and you think is yours. Thus does |
| Tx:27.25 | not overlook the fact that every thought extends because that is its | purpose, being what it really is. From an idea of self as two, there |
| Tx:27.27 | mistakes in one unhealed and set the other free. That is divided | purpose which cannot be shared, and so it cannot be the function |
| Tx:27.28 | mind that is united, functioning as one because It is not split in | purpose and conceives a single function as Its only one. Here is the |
| Tx:27.28 | function lies the means whereby your mind is unified. His single | purpose unifies the halves of you which you perceive as separate. And |
| Tx:27.29 | limit. And therefore it must be limited and weak because that is its | purpose. Power is unopposed, to be itself. No weakness can intrude on |
| Tx:27.36 | In conflict there can be no answer and no resolution, for its | purpose is to make no resolution possible and to ensure no answer |
| Tx:27.39 | of which this world is made?” Whatever form the question takes, its | purpose is the same. It asks but to establish sin is real and answers |
| Tx:27.45 | messages. If you wish only to be healed, you heal. Your single | purpose makes this possible. But if you are afraid of healing, then |
| Tx:27.54 | attention, drawing it away from Him and focusing upon itself. Its | purpose is the same as pleasure, for they both are means to make the |
| Tx:27.54 | for they both are means to make the body real. What shares a common | purpose is the same. This is the law of purpose, which unites all |
| Tx:27.54 | real. What shares a common purpose is the same. This is the law of | purpose, which unites all those who share in it within itself. |
| Tx:27.54 | within itself. Pleasure and pain are equally unreal, because their | purpose cannot be achieved. Thus are they means for nothing, for they |
| Tx:27.54 | without a meaning. And they share the lack of meaning which their | purpose has. |
| Tx:27.60 | which call them different are dissolved and shown as powerless. The | purpose of a miracle is to accomplish this. And God Himself has |
| Tx:27.65 | wounds a knife he does not hold has made upon himself. This is the | purpose of the world he sees. And looked at thus, the world provides |
| Tx:27.65 | sees. And looked at thus, the world provides the means by which this | purpose seems to be fulfilled. |
| Tx:27.66 | The means attest the | purpose but are not themselves a cause. Nor will the cause be changed |
| Tx:27.79 | ever had. The “hero” of this dream will never change nor will its | purpose. Though the dream itself takes many forms and seems to show a |
| Tx:27.79 | and events wherein its “hero” finds itself, the dream has but one | purpose, taught in many ways. This single lesson does it try to teach |
| Tx:27.83 | because you did not make it and cannot control its actions or its | purpose or its fate. |
| Tx:28.2 | And like all the things you made, it can be used to serve another | purpose and to be the means for something else. It can be used to |
| Tx:28.19 | is a choice of dreams while you are still asleep, depending on the | purpose of your dreaming. Do you wish for dreams of healing or for |
| Tx:28.21 | from a thing that has no cause? Yet if it has no cause, it has no | purpose. You may cause a dream, but never will you give it real |
| Tx:28.31 | it seems to give a cause to sickness which is not its cause. The | purpose of the gap is all the cause that sickness has. For it was |
| Tx:28.54 | look for lasting pleasure in the dust. It does not tell you what its | purpose is and cannot understand what it is for. It does not |
| Tx:28.63 | With this as | purpose is the body healed. It is not used to witness to the dream of |
| Tx:28.63 | did not do. It serves to help the healing of God's Son, and for this | purpose it cannot be sick. It will not join a purpose not your own, |
| Tx:28.63 | Son, and for this purpose it cannot be sick. It will not join a | purpose not your own, and you have chosen that it not be sick. All |
| Tx:28.66 | can be used to liberate God's Son unto his home. And with this holy | purpose is it made a home of holiness a little while because it |
| Tx:29.5 | weaknesses set up the limitations on what you would do and keep your | purpose limited and weak. |
| Tx:29.6 | misuse each circumstance and everyone you meet and see in them a | purpose not your own. |
| Tx:29.16 | and Heaven knows it not. Yet here on earth it has a double | purpose, for it can be made to teach opposing things. And they |
| Tx:29.16 | this but means the mind remains unchanged in its belief of what the | purpose of the body is. |
| Tx:29.29 | they cover something else. Perceptions are determined by their | purpose in that they seem to be what they are for. A shadow figure |
| Tx:29.32 | you, and you of him because he is his Father's Son and not for any | purpose you may see in him. Nothing is asked of you but to accept the |
| Tx:29.40 | Nothing survives its | purpose. If it be conceived to die, then die it must unless it does |
| Tx:29.40 | be conceived to die, then die it must unless it does not take this | purpose as its own. Change is the only thing that can be made a |
| Tx:29.40 | Change is the only thing that can be made a blessing here, where | purpose is not fixed, however changeless it appears to be. Think not |
| Tx:29.40 | it appears to be. Think not that you can set a goal unlike God's | purpose for you and establish it as changeless and eternal. You can |
| Tx:29.40 | and establish it as changeless and eternal. You can give yourself a | purpose that you do not have. But you can not remove the power to |
| Tx:29.40 | But you can not remove the power to change your mind and see another | purpose there. Change is the greatest gift God gave to all that you |
| Tx:29.41 | not aim at keeping time but at its ending when it has no use. Its | purpose ended; it is gone. And where it once held seeming sway is now |
| Tx:29.42 | but is defined as what you see it for. How lovely is the world whose | purpose is forgiveness of God's Son! How free from fear, how filled |
| Tx:29.44 | separated off and found where all the rest of it is not. This is the | purpose he bestows upon the body—that it seek for what he lacks and |
| Tx:29.45 | God's Son within and prove that he is victor over him. This is the | purpose every idol has, for this the role that is assigned to it, and |
| Tx:29.48 | Look not to idols. Do not seek outside yourself. Let us forget the | purpose of the world the past has given it. For otherwise, the future |
| Tx:29.49 | circle of despair, you need but to decide you do not know the | purpose of the world. You give it goals it does not have, and thus do |
| Tx:29.52 | what they really are. That is the only power which they have. Their | purpose is obscure, and they are feared and worshiped both because |
| Tx:29.55 | This world of idols is a veil across the face of Christ because its | purpose is to separate your brother from yourself. A dark and fearful |
| Tx:29.55 | is to separate your brother from yourself. A dark and fearful | purpose, yet a thought without the power to change one blade of grass |
| Tx:29.59 | What | purpose has an idol, then? What is it for? This is the only question |
| Tx:29.60 | It is for him the Holy Spirit speaks and tells you idols have no | purpose here. For more than Heaven can you never have. If Heaven is |
| Tx:29.67 | now has changed into a dream where all is joy because that is the | purpose which it has. Only forgiving dreams can enter here, for time |
| Tx:30.24 | mind about the day and have remembered what you really want. Its | purpose has no longer been obscured by the insane belief you want it |
| Tx:30.39 | upon the form of what you want, you lose the understanding of its | purpose. So you see your will within the idol, thus reducing it to a |
| Tx:30.40 | this, you will achieve completion in a form you like. This is the | purpose of an idol—that you will not look beyond it to the source |
| Tx:30.57 | The real world is the state of mind in which the only | purpose of the world is seen to be forgiveness. Fear is not its goal, |
| Tx:30.58 | be understood. The world becomes a place of hope because its only | purpose is to be a place where hope of happiness can be fulfilled. |
| Tx:30.58 | outside this hope because the world has been united in belief the | purpose of the world is one which all must share if hope be more than |
| Tx:30.59 | Not yet is Heaven quite remembered, for the | purpose of forgiveness still remains. Yet everyone is certain he will |
| Tx:30.59 | but this. And fear has dropped away because he is united in his | purpose with himself. There is a hope of happiness in him so sure and |
| Tx:30.60 | for understanding this is Heaven itself. Even the real world has a | purpose still beneath creation and eternity. But fear is gone because |
| Tx:30.60 | still beneath creation and eternity. But fear is gone because its | purpose is forgiveness, not idolatry. And so is Heaven's Son prepared |
| Tx:30.61 | The real world still falls short of this, for this is God's own | purpose—only His, and yet completely shared and perfectly |
| Tx:30.61 | are purposeless. For only then can guilt and sin be seen without a | purpose and as meaningless. |
| Tx:30.62 | Thus is the real world's | purpose gently brought into awareness, to replace the goal of sin and |
| Tx:30.63 | When brothers join in | purpose in the world of fear, they stand already at the edge of the |
| Tx:30.69 | they thought He was their enemy. But when they joined and shared a | purpose, they were free to learn their will is one. And thus the Will |
| Tx:30.76 | the miracle can heal all forms of sickness, or it cannot heal. Its | purpose cannot be to judge which forms are real and which appearances |
| Tx:30.82 | and yet is true. The Holy Spirit looks upon the world as with one | purpose, changelessly established. And no situation can affect its |
| Tx:30.84 | Only a constant | purpose can endow events with stable meaning. But it must accord one |
| Tx:30.85 | A common | purpose is the only means whereby perception can be stabilized and |
| Tx:30.85 | given to the world and all experiences here. In this shared | purpose is one [meaning] shared by everyone and everything you see. |
| Tx:30.86 | Escape from judgment simply lies in this—all things have but one | purpose which you share with all the world. And nothing in the world |
| Tx:30.86 | to it, for it belongs to everything as it belongs to you. In single | purpose is the end of all ideas of sacrifice, which must assume a |
| Tx:30.86 | is the end of all ideas of sacrifice, which must assume a different | purpose for the one who gains and him who loses. There could be no |
| Tx:30.87 | is no light by which they can be seen and understood. They have no | purpose. And what they are for cannot be seen. In any thought of |
| Tx:31.5 | really true. Yet you will learn them, for their learning is the only | purpose for your learning skill the Holy Spirit sees in all the |
| Tx:31.12 | every preconception which we hold of what things mean and what their | purpose is. Let us remember not our own ideas of what the world is |
| Tx:31.16 | is what you made your brother for and learned to think that this his | purpose is. Unless he serves it, he has not fulfilled the function |
| Tx:31.16 | was given him by you. And thus he merits death because he has no | purpose and no usefulness to you. |
| Tx:31.24 | for will be enough to let this happen. And you will perceive his | purpose is the same as yours. He asks for what you want and needs the |
| Tx:31.24 | answer to. He asks and you receive, for you have come with but one | purpose—that you both may learn you love each other with a |
| Tx:31.28 | at all. If you are sin you are a body, for the mind acts not. And | purpose must be in the body, not the mind. The body must act on its |
| Tx:31.28 | If you are sin, you lock the mind within the body, and you give its | purpose to its prison-house, which acts instead of it. A jailer does |
| Tx:31.29 | the mind preferred the body change in its appearances to suit the | purpose given by the mind. For it can learn, and there is all change |
| Tx:31.30 | The mind that thinks it is a sin has but one | purpose—that the body be the source of sin and keep it in the |
| Tx:31.33 | the world can offer consolation and escape from problems which its | purpose is to keep. Why should this be? Because it is a place where |
| Tx:31.35 | the world. But this is not the lesson in itself. The lesson has a | purpose, and in this you come to understand what it is for. |
| Tx:31.36 | way the lesson starts but do not yet perceive what it is for? Its | purpose is the answer to the search that all must undertake who still |
| Tx:31.36 | will learning lead to heights of happiness in which you see the | purpose of the lesson shining clear, and perfectly within your |
| Tx:31.38 | alternative instead. To fight against this step is to defeat your | purpose here. You did not come to learn to find a road the world does |
| Tx:31.39 | it. And every road that leads the other way will not advance the | purpose to be found. If this be difficult to understand, then is this |
| Tx:31.40 | given him. How utterly opposed to truth is this, when the lesson's | purpose is to teach that what your brother loses you have lost and |
| Tx:31.41 | within, when every road was made to separate the journey from the | purpose it must have unless it be but futile wandering? All roads |
| Tx:31.43 | of the self is what the learning of the world is for. This is its | purpose—that you come without a self and make one as you go along. |
| Tx:31.95 | through the world with every choice they make. For we are one in | purpose, and the end of hell is near. |
| W1:I.1 | goal possible. An untrained mind can accomplish nothing. It is the | purpose of these exercises to train the mind to think along the lines |
| W1:I.3 | The | purpose of these exercises is to train the mind to a different |
| W1:I.3 | in every situation in which you spend any long period of time. The | purpose is to train the mind to generalize the lessons, so that you |
| W1:1.5 | in the kinds of things to which they are applied. That is the | purpose of the exercise. The statement is merely applied to anything |
| W1:3.2 | the things to which the idea for the day is to be applied. For this | purpose one thing is like another—equally suitable and therefore |
| W1:4.3 | from the meaningful. It is a first attempt in the long-range | purpose of learning to see the meaningless as outside you and the |
| W1:6.3 | to upset you and can profitably be used throughout the day for that | purpose. However, the three or four practice periods which are |
| W1:8.3 | The | purpose of the exercises for today is to begin to train your mind to |
| W1:12.8 | your words have been erased, you will see His. That is the ultimate | purpose of these exercises. |
| W1:16.7 | which arouses uneasiness. The following form is suggested for this | purpose: |
| W1:20.3 | goal is of little worth. Can the salvation of the world be a trivial | purpose? And can the world be saved if you are not? God has one Son, |
| W1:25.1 | Purpose is meaning. Today's idea explains why nothing you see means | |
| W1:25.1 | is for your own best interests. That is what it is for; that is its | purpose; that is what it means. It is in recognizing this that your |
| W1:25.4 | is necessary. At the most superficial levels, you do recognize | purpose. Yet purpose cannot be understood at these levels. For |
| W1:25.4 | At the most superficial levels, you do recognize purpose. Yet | purpose cannot be understood at these levels. For example, you do |
| W1:25.4 | levels. For example, you do understand that a telephone is for the | purpose of talking to someone who is not physically in your immediate |
| W1:27.1 | that you are not sure you really mean it. This does not matter. The | purpose of today's exercises is to bring the time when the idea will |
| W1:28.3 | meaning to your tiny experience of tables, nor are you limiting its | purpose to your little personal thoughts. |
| W1:28.4 | You will not question what we have already defined. And the | purpose of these exercises is to ask questions and receive the |
| W1:28.5 | happiness and hope. Hidden under all your ideas about it is its real | purpose, the purpose it shares with all the universe. |
| W1:28.5 | hope. Hidden under all your ideas about it is its real purpose, the | purpose it shares with all the universe. |
| W1:28.6 | the idea for today, you are therefore really asking to see the | purpose of the universe. You will be making this same request of each |
| W1:28.6 | And you are making a commitment to each of them to let their | purpose be revealed to you instead of placing your own judgment upon |
| W1:29.1 | The idea for today explains why you can see all | purpose in anything. It explains why nothing is separate, by itself |
| W1:29.2 | as you see it. Yet we emphasized yesterday that a table shares the | purpose of the universe. And what shares the purpose of the universe |
| W1:29.2 | that a table shares the purpose of the universe. And what shares the | purpose of the universe shares the purpose of its Creator. |
| W1:29.2 | the universe. And what shares the purpose of the universe shares the | purpose of its Creator. |
| W1:29.3 | you know what is in them? Nothing is as it appears to you. Its holy | purpose stands beyond your little range. When vision has shown you |
| W1:34.5 | whenever you feel your peace of mind is threatened in any way. The | purpose is to protect yourself from temptation throughout the day. If |
| W1:37.1 | of your true function in the world or why you are here. Your | purpose is to see the world through your own holiness. Thus are you |
| W1:38.8 | focused on the theme “There is nothing my holiness cannot do.” The | purpose of today's exercises is to begin to instill in you a sense |
| W1:43.2 | which is the undoing of what never was, perception has a mighty | purpose. Made by the Son of God for an unholy purpose, it must become |
| W1:43.2 | has a mighty purpose. Made by the Son of God for an unholy | purpose, it must become the means for the restoration of his holiness |
| W1:43.3 | and it is real to the extent to which it shares the Holy Spirit's | purpose, then you cannot see apart from God. |
| W1:44.3 | Today we are going to attempt to reach that light. For this | purpose, we will use a form of practice which has been suggested |
| W1:46.6 | The | purpose of the first phase of today's practice is to put you in the |
| W1:R1.5 | The | purpose of your learning is to enable you to bring the quiet with you |
| W1:55.6 | [25] I do not know what anything is for. To me, the | purpose of everything is to prove that my illusions about myself are |
| W1:55.6 | is to prove that my illusions about myself are real. It is for that | purpose that I attempt to use everyone and everything. It is this |
| W1:55.6 | I believe the world is for. Therefore I do not recognize its real | purpose. The purpose I have given the world has led to a frightening |
| W1:55.6 | the world is for. Therefore I do not recognize its real purpose. The | purpose I have given the world has led to a frightening picture of |
| W1:55.6 | led to a frightening picture of it. Let me open my mind to its real | purpose by withdrawing the one I have given it, and learning the |
| W1:57.4 | [33] There is another way of looking at the world. Since the | purpose of the world is not the one I ascribed to it, there must be |
| W1:61.4 | truth and helps you depart in peace, unburdened and certain of your | purpose. |
| W1:61.8 | day, and turn to sleep as you reaffirm your function and your only | purpose here. These two practice periods may be longer than the rest |
| W1:61.9 | goes far beyond the ego's petty views of what you are and what your | purpose is. As a bringer of salvation, this is obviously necessary. |
| W1:63.1 | to recognize the means for letting this be done through you! What | purpose could you have that would bring you greater happiness? |
| W1:63.2 | It is yours to give him, for it belongs to you. Accept no trivial | purpose or meaningless desire in its place or you will forget your |
| W1:64.1 | another way of saying, “Let me not wander into temptation.” The | purpose of the world you see is to obscure your function of |
| W1:64.2 | to see can be anything but a form of temptation, since this was the | purpose of the body itself. Yet we have learned that the Holy Spirit |
| W1:64.2 | for all the illusions you have made, and therefore He sees another | purpose in them. To the Holy Spirit, the world is a place where you |
| W1:65.1 | necessary for a total commitment. Salvation cannot be the only | purpose you hold while you still cherish others. The full acceptance |
| W1:65.4 | The | purpose of this is to arrange your day so that you have set apart the |
| W1:65.4 | mind needs, so that the Holy Spirit can use it consistently for the | purpose He shares with you. |
| W1:65.10 | but try to get a sense of being willing to have your illusions of | purpose be replaced by truth. |
| W1:66.4 | Our longer practice period today has as its | purpose your acceptance of the fact that not only is there a very |
| W1:69.3 | to us than all else. Salvation is our only need. There is no other | purpose here and no other function to fulfill. Learning salvation is |
| W1:70.5 | Your | purpose was to ensure that healing did not occur; God's purpose was |
| W1:70.5 | Your purpose was to ensure that healing did not occur; God's | purpose was to ensure that it did. Today we practice realizing that |
| W1:71.6 | you will, you must be willing to seek there only. Otherwise your | purpose is divided, and you will attempt to follow two plans for |
| W1:73.10 | and only His, is wholly in accord with your will. It is not the | purpose of an alien power, thrust upon you unwillingly. It is the one |
| W1:73.10 | of an alien power, thrust upon you unwillingly. It is the one | purpose here on which you and your Father are in perfect accord. |
| W1:75.4 | shows us. This is what we want to see, and only this. Our single | purpose makes our goal inevitable. Today the real world rises before |
| W1:76.4 | names in a long catalogue of rituals that have no use and serve no | purpose. You think you must obey the “laws” of medicine, of |
| W1:81.7 | separate my function from my will. I would not use this for an alien | purpose. |
| W1:83.2 | conflict because it means I cannot have conflicting goals. With one | purpose only, I am always certain what to do, what to say, and what |
| W1:91.13 | are united with you in this practice period in which you share a | purpose like Their own. Theirs is the light in which you will see |
| W1:91.14 | with today's idea. This form would be helpful for this special | purpose: |
| W1:92.6 | that it may bring to all the miracle in which they will unite in | purpose and forgiveness and in love. |
| W1:92.7 | Weakness, which looks in darkness, cannot see a | purpose in forgiveness and in love. It sees all others different from |
| W1:95.5 | you must also have noticed that, unless you are reminded of your | purpose frequently, you tend to forget about it for long periods of |
| W1:96.7 | a dream presents? What could the resolution mean in truth? What | purpose could it serve? What is it for? Salvation cannot make |
| W1:98.2 | our doubts we lay aside today and take our stand with certainty of | purpose and with thanks that doubt is gone and surety has come. We |
| W1:98.2 | with thanks that doubt is gone and surety has come. We have a mighty | purpose to fulfill and have been given everything we need with which |
| W1:98.6 | exchange a little of your time for peace of mind and certainty of | purpose with the promise of complete success. And since time has no |
| W1:100.1 | ways. One function shared by separate minds unites them in one | purpose, for each one is equally essential to them all. |
| W1:122.1 | offers it. Do you want happiness, a quiet mind, a certainty of | purpose, and a sense of worth and beauty that transcends the world? |
| W1:125.8 | speaks. It is the Word of freedom and of peace, of unity of will and | purpose, with no separation nor division in the single Mind of Father |
| W1:125.10 | by today, be still a moment and remind yourself you have a special | purpose for this day—in quiet to receive the Word of God. |
| W1:127.4 | No course whose | purpose is to teach you what you really are could fail to emphasize |
| W1:128.2 | it will serve no other end but this. For everything must serve the | purpose you have given it until you see a different purpose there. |
| W1:128.2 | must serve the purpose you have given it until you see a different | purpose there. The only purpose worthy of your mind this world |
| W1:128.2 | you have given it until you see a different purpose there. The only | purpose worthy of your mind this world contains is that you pass it |
| W1:128.6 | its wings, and it will fly in sureness and in joy to join its holy | purpose. Let it rest in its Creator, there to be restored to sanity, |
| W1:131.9 | Let us not try longer to impose an alien will upon God's single | purpose. He is here because He wills to be, and what He wills is |
| W1:131.19 | Today I seek and find all that I want. My single | purpose offers it to me. No one can fail who asks to reach the truth. |
| W1:132.15 | Today our | purpose is to free the world from all the idle thoughts we ever held |
| W1:133.9 | choice you make of value to you? What attracts your mind to it? What | purpose does it serve? Here it is easiest of all to be deceived, for |
| W1:135.15 | easy to perceive that self-initiated plans are but defenses with the | purpose all of them were made to realize. They are the means by which |
| W1:135.19 | past, present, and to come, are gently planned by One Whose only | purpose is your good? Perhaps you have misunderstood His plan, for He |
| W1:136.1 | No one can heal unless he understands what | purpose sickness seems to serve. For then he understands as well its |
| W1:136.1 | purpose sickness seems to serve. For then he understands as well its | purpose has no meaning. Being causeless and without a meaningful |
| W1:136.2 | is an insane device for self-deception. And like all the rest, its | purpose is to hide reality, attack it, change it, render it inept, |
| W1:136.13 | alter it. Truth merely wants to give you happiness, for such its | purpose is. Perhaps it sighs a little when you throw away its gifts, |
| W1:138.7 | the choice that time was made to help us make. Such is its holy | purpose, now transformed from the intent you gave it, that it be a |
| W1:139.6 | is true? Nothing the world believes is true. It is a place whose | purpose is to be a home where those who claim they do not know |
| W1:R4.5 | your unforgiving thoughts from being seen and recognized. Their | purpose is to show you something else and hold correction off through |
| W1:R4.10 | There is no hurry now, for you are using time for its intended | purpose. Let each word shine with the meaning God has given it as it |
| W1:153.8 | We will not play such childish games today. For our true | purpose is to save the world, and we would not exchange for |
| W1:153.9 | our safety now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill our chosen | purpose as our ministry extends its holy blessing through the world. |
| W1:153.10 | Be still a moment, and in silence think how holy is your | purpose, how secure you rest, untouchable within its light. God's |
| W1:153.15 | better still. And as distraction ceases to arise to turn us from our | purpose, we will find that half an hour is too short a time to spend |
| W1:153.20 | time we feel the threat of our defenses undermine our certainty of | purpose. We will pause a moment as He tells us, “I am here.” Your |
| W1:154.5 | delivery. If he determines what the messages should be or what their | purpose is or where they should be carried, he is failing to perform |
| W1:155.9 | given you to follow in your footsteps as you walk with certainty of | purpose to the truth. It goes before you now, that they may see |
| W1:157.6 | Your body will be sanctified today, its only | purpose being now to bring the vision of what you experience this day |
| W1:157.8 | you now appear, for you will have no need of it. Yet now it has a | purpose and will serve it well. Today we will embark upon a course |
| W1:161.2 | whole, for only thus could it invent the partial world you see. The | purpose of all seeing is to show you what you wish to see. All |
| W1:161.3 | We give them to the Holy Spirit that He may employ them for a | purpose which is different from the one we gave to them. Yet He can |
| W1:164.9 | Is not this | purpose worthy to be yours? Is not Christ's vision worthy to be |
| W1:R5.1 | But now we hasten on, for we approach a greater certainty, a firmer | purpose and a surer goal. |
| W1:R5.15 | the end of practice periods, but to recall the mind as needed to its | purpose. We place faith in the experience that comes from practice, |
| W1:184.12 | of the world to take the place of Heaven. In our practicing, our | purpose is to let our minds accept what He has given as the answer to |
| W1:185.10 | but sure to you. You have been weak at times, uncertain in your | purpose and unsure of what you wanted, where to look for it, and |
| W1:193.4 | And now guilt cannot enter, for its source has been excluded as the | purpose of the lesson has been changed to guiltlessness; the hatred |
| W1:193.14 | another instant. Time was made for this. Use it today for what its | purpose is. Morning and night, devote what time you can to serve its |
| W1:199.6 | seek for freedom. In Him they find what they have sought. The body's | purpose now is unambiguous. And it becomes perfect in the ability to |
| W1:199.6 | the thought of freedom as its goal, the body serves, and serves its | purpose well. Without the power to enslave, it is a worthy servant of |
| W1:200.5 | but chains and iron doors. For you must change your mind about the | purpose of the world if you would find escape. You will be bound till |
| W1:200.6 | from evil dreams that he imagines, yet believes are true, a worthy | purpose? Who could hope for more while there appears to be a choice |
| W1:200.11 | and to replace our shifting goals and solitary dreams with single | purpose and companionship. For peace is union if it be of God. We |
| W1:205.1 | is my one goal; the aim of all my living here, the end I seek, my | purpose and my function and my life while I abide where I am not at |
| W2:WF.3 | what it sees as interfering with its chosen path. Distortion is its | purpose and the means by which it would accomplish it as well. It |
| W2:226.1 | death which makes this possible, but it is change of mind about the | purpose of the world. If I believe it has a value as I see it now, so |
| W2:236.1 | what to do and feel. And yet it has been given me to serve whatever | purpose I perceive in it. My mind can only serve. Today I give its |
| W2:WIW.3 | find what has been given them to seek. Their aim is to fulfill the | purpose which the world was made to witness and make real. They see |
| W2:WIW.4 | Sounds become the call of God. And all perception can be given a new | purpose by the One Whom God appointed Savior to the world. Follow His |
| W2:WIS.2 | the instrument the mind made in its striving to deceive itself. Its | purpose is to strive. Yet can the goal of striving change. And now |
| W2:257.2 | us not forget that we can have no will but Yours today. And thus our | purpose must be Yours as well if we would reach the peace You will |
| W2:WIB.3 | truth can never fear. Made to be fearful, must the body serve the | purpose given it. But we can change the purpose which the body will |
| W2:WIB.3 | must the body serve the purpose given it. But we can change the | purpose which the body will obey by changing what we think that it is |
| W2:267.1 | in every thought. Peace fills my heart and floods my body with the | purpose of forgiveness. Now my mind is healed, and all I need to save |
| W2:276.1 | Self, to be unsure of who we are, of who our Father is, and for what | purpose we have come. And yet we need but to acknowledge Him Who gave |
| W2:285.1 | I accept my holiness. For what would be the use of pain to me, what | purpose would my suffering fulfill, and how would grief and loss |
| W2:WIRW.5 | The Holy Spirit has no need of time when it has served His | purpose. Now He waits but that one instant more for God to take His |
| W2:294.1 | neutrality protects it while it has a use. And afterwards, without a | purpose, it is laid aside. It is not sick or old or hurt. It is but |
| W2:308.1 | I must change my perception of what time is for. Time's | purpose cannot be to keep the past and future one. The only interval |
| W2:312.1 | come to greet the holy sight of anyone who takes the Holy Spirit's | purpose as his goal for seeing. And he cannot fail to look upon what |
| W2:312.2 | I have no | purpose for today except to look upon a liberated world, set free |
| W2:318.1 | save the world. What could conflict when all the parts have but one | purpose and one aim? How could there be a single part that stands |
| W2:318.1 | rest? I am the means by which God's Son is saved because salvation's | purpose is to find the sinlessness which God has placed in me. I was |
| W2:333.1 | thought to be, in the reality which has been given it, and with the | purpose that the mind accorded it. For only then are its defenses |
| W2:WAI.2 | this one year we gave to God together, you and I, we found a single | purpose that we shared. And thus you joined with me. So what I am are |
| W2:353.1 | is mine today to Christ to use in any way that best will serve the | purpose that I share with Him. Nothing is mine alone, for He and I |
| W2:353.1 | I share with Him. Nothing is mine alone, for He and I have joined in | purpose. Thus has learning come almost to its appointed end. A while |
| W2:353.1 | almost to its appointed end. A while I work with Him to serve His | purpose. Then I lose myself in my Identity and recognize that Christ |
| W2:354.1 | law but Yours. I have no self except the Christ in me. I have no | purpose but His own. And He is like His Father. Thus must I be one |
| W2:FL.3 | And to this | purpose let us dedicate our minds, directing all our thoughts to |
| M:I.2 | is not whether you will teach, for in that there is no choice. The | purpose of the course might be said to provide you with a means of |
| M:I.3 | but reinforces what you believe about yourself. Its fundamental | purpose is to diminish self doubt. This does not mean that the self |
| M:I.4 | solely to convince himself that he is what he is not. Herein is the | purpose of the world. What else, then, would its curriculum be? Into |
| M:2.5 | for learning purposes. The relationship is holy because of that | purpose, and God has promised to send His Spirit into any holy |
| M:4.16 | is just as great as theirs of Him. How joyous it is to share the | purpose of salvation! |
| M:5.5 | The acceptance of sickness as a decision of the mind for a | purpose for which it would use the body is the basis of healing. And |
| M:5.7 | and sickness, pain, disaster, and all suffering mean now? Having no | purpose, they are gone. And with them also go all the effects they |
| M:5.10 | believes. To do this is to forget that all of them have the same | purpose and therefore are not really different. They seek for God's |
| M:12.2 | to be many, for that is the world's need. Yet being joined in one | purpose, and one they share with God, how could they be separate from |
| M:12.4 | Yet what makes them God's teachers is their recognition of the proper | purpose of the body. As they advance in their profession, they become |
| M:12.4 | come the recognition in this new teacher of God of what the body's | purpose really is; the only use there really is for it. This lesson |
| M:12.5 | this decision alone. To do that would be to give the body another | purpose from the one that keeps it holy. God's Voice will tell him |
| M:14.1 | forever. So ends the world that guilt had made, for now it has no | purpose and is gone. The father of illusions is the belief that they |
| M:14.1 | and is gone. The father of illusions is the belief that they have a | purpose; that they serve a need or gratify a want. Perceived as |
| M:14.2 | Until forgiveness is complete, the world does have a | purpose. It becomes the home in which forgiveness is born and where |
| M:14.5 | end in joy because it is a place of sorrow. When joy has come, the | purpose of the world has gone. The world will end in peace because it |
| M:14.5 | peace because it is a place of war. When peace has come, what is the | purpose of the world? The world will end in laughter because it is a |
| M:22.6 | then, that healing lies. All else must follow from this single | purpose. |
| M:24.4 | issues but waste time, draining it away from its appointed | purpose. If there are aspects to any concept or belief that will be |
| M:25.5 | inevitable that, unless the individual changes his mind about its | purpose, he will bolster its uncertainties with increasing deception. |
| M:28.1 | is the acceptance of the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the world's | purpose; the acceptance of the Atonement for oneself. It is the end |
| M:28.4 | the universe. All things are seen in light, and in the light their | purpose is transformed and understood. And we, God's children, rise |
| M:28.5 | Will to be our own. Illusions of another will are lost, for unity of | purpose has been found. |

| Tx:6.4 | For teaching | purposes, let us consider the crucifixion again. We have not dwelt on |
| Tx:12.48 | by breaking it into past, present, and future for your own | purposes. You would anticipate the future on the basis of your past |

| Tx:15.87 | share with it. For the ego would limit everyone to a body for its | purposes, and while you think it has a purpose, you will choose to |

| Tx:13.92 | hard. The Holy Spirit will not delay at all in answering your every | question what to do. He knows. And He will tell you and then do it |
| Tx:15.26 | before, “Would you be hostage to the ego or host to God?” Let this | question be asked you by the Holy Spirit in you every time you make a |

| Tx:15.96 | are convinced, someone must pay and someone must get. And the only | question which remains to be decided is how much is the price for |
| Tx:15.98 | to be destroyed. For you see love as destructive, and your only | question is who is to be destroyed, you or another? You seek to |
| Tx:15.98 | is who is to be destroyed, you or another? You seek to answer this | question in your special relationships, in which you are both |
| Tx:15.100 | project it from you and see it outside yourself. In you are both the | question and the answer—the demand for sacrifice and the peace of |
| Tx:18.36 | You merely ask the | question. The answer is given. Seek not to answer it, but merely |
| Tx:20.18 | first where they would have it be. Their looking merely asked a | question, and it was what they saw that answered them. You make the |
| Tx:20.19 | A simple | question yet remains and needs an answer. Do you like what you have |
| Tx:20.21 | answered. Take not the judgment of the world as answer to the | question, “What am I?” |
| Tx:20.66 | Your | question should not be, “How can I see my brother without the body?” |
| Tx:20.74 | when that purpose is no longer held, they disappear. Therefore, the | question never is whether you want them, but always, do you want the |
| Tx:21.5 | want to learn and not forget. It is not this you would deny. Your | question is whether the means by which this course is learned will |
| Tx:21.43 | What if you looked within and saw no sin? This “fearful” | question is one the ego never asks. And you who ask it now are |
| Tx:21.48 | and by clamor. The quiet way is open. Follow it happily and | question not what must be so. |
| Tx:21.52 | would give? All sorts of questions may arise in it, but if the basic | question stems from reason, it will not ask it. Like all that stems |
| Tx:21.52 | it will not ask it. Like all that stems from reason, the basic | question is obvious, simple, and remains unasked. But think not |
| Tx:21.58 | close to this. Faith and belief have shifted, and you have asked the | question which the ego will never ask. Does not your reason tell you |
| Tx:21.58 | which the ego will never ask. Does not your reason tell you now the | question must have come from something that you do not know but must |
| Tx:21.76 | would emphasize the sameness of things that are the same. This final | question, which is indeed the last you need decide, still seems to |
| Tx:21.78 | Consider carefully your answer to the last | question you have left unanswered still. And let your reason tell you |
| Tx:21.81 | Why is the final | question so important? Reason will tell you why. It is the same as |
| Tx:21.82 | look on sin are seeing the denial of the real world. Yet the last | question adds the wish for constancy in your desire to see the real |
| Tx:21.82 | so the desire becomes the only one you have. By answering the final | question “yes,” you add sincerity to the decisions you have already |
| Tx:21.87 | cannot be shaken. It comes as surely unto those who see the final | question is necessary to the rest, as peace must come to those who |

| Tx:24.2 | To learn this course requires willingness to | question every value that you hold. Not one can be kept hidden and |
| Tx:25.58 | Now must he | question this because the form of the alternative is one which he |
| Tx:26.85 | or not at all. Confused perception will block knowledge. It is not a | question of the size of the confusion or how much it interferes. Its |
| Tx:27.38 | no answer there that could be found. Nowhere outside a single simple | question is ever asked. The world can only ask a double question with |
| Tx:27.38 | simple question is ever asked. The world can only ask a double | question with many answers, none of which will do. It does not ask a |
| Tx:27.38 | question with many answers, none of which will do. It does not ask a | question to be answered, but only to restate its point of view. All |
| Tx:27.38 | questions asked within this world are but a way of looking, not a | question asked. A question asked in hate cannot be answered, because |
| Tx:27.38 | within this world are but a way of looking, not a question asked. A | question asked in hate cannot be answered, because it is an answer in |
| Tx:27.38 | hate cannot be answered, because it is an answer in itself. A double | question asks and answers, both attesting the same thing in different |
| Tx:27.39 | The world asks but one | question. It is this: “Of these illusions, which of them are true? |
| Tx:27.39 | from all the pain of which this world is made?” Whatever form the | question takes, its purpose is the same. It asks but to establish sin |
| Tx:27.39 | want, and it will serve you lovingly and well.” And this is not a | question, for it tells you what you want and where to go for it. It |
| Tx:27.39 | tells you what you want and where to go for it. It leaves no room to | question its beliefs, except that what it states takes question's |
| Tx:27.41 | An honest | question is a learning tool which asks for something that you do not |
| Tx:27.41 | should be. But no one in a conflict state is free to ask this | question, for he does not want an honest answer where the conflict |
| Tx:27.41 | where the conflict ends. Only within the holy instant can an honest | question honestly be asked. And from the meaning of the question does |
| Tx:27.41 | an honest question honestly be asked. And from the meaning of the | question does the meaningfulness of the answer come. Here is it |
| Tx:27.42 | tells “of whom,” it will remain unrecognized, unheard, and thus the | question is preserved intact because it gave the answer to itself. |
| Tx:27.42 | is still enough to hear an answer which is not entailed within the | question asked. It offers something new and different from the |
| Tx:27.42 | the question asked. It offers something new and different from the | question. How could it be answered if it but repeats itself? |
| Tx:27.43 | they stand apart from them, and see what can be answered—what the | question is. Within the world the answers merely raise another |
| Tx:27.43 | the question is. Within the world the answers merely raise another | question, though they leave the first unanswered. In the holy |
| Tx:27.43 | leave the first unanswered. In the holy instant, you can bring the | question to the answer and receive the answer that was made for you. |
| Tx:27.47 | and suffering whispers, “What is there to fear?” Consider well its | question. It is asked of you on your behalf. A dying world asks only |
| Tx:29.59 | What purpose has an idol, then? What is it for? This is the only | question which has many answers, each depending on the one of whom |
| Tx:29.59 | which has many answers, each depending on the one of whom the | question has been asked. The world believes in idols. No one comes |
| Tx:30.10 | you. This means you have decided by yourself and cannot see the | question. Now you need a quick restorative before you ask. |
| Tx:30.11 | occurred which is not part of it. Then realize that you have asked a | question by yourself and must have set an answer in your terms. Then |
| Tx:30.12 | I have no | question. I forgot what to decide. |
| Tx:30.13 | the terms which you have set and lets the answer show you what the | question must have really been. |
| Tx:30.14 | of being answered in a different way from what your version of the | question asks will gain momentum until you believe the day you want |
| Tx:30.14 | believe the day you want is one in which you get your answer to your | question. And you will not get it, for it would destroy the day by |
| Tx:30.15 | 4. If you are so unwilling to receive you cannot even let your | question go, you can begin to change your mind with this: |
| Tx:30.27 | Thus you now can ask a | question that makes sense, and so the answer will make sense as well. |
| Tx:30.29 | in itself. And yet, you cannot make decisions by yourself. The only | question really is with what you choose to make them. That is really |
| Tx:31.6 | outcome is inevitable, sure as God, and far beyond all doubt and | question? Can it be your little learning, strange in outcome and |
| Tx:31.53 | not seek to throw you into panic. So He merely asks if just a little | question might be raised. |
| Tx:31.55 | Although this step has gains, it does not yet approach a basic | question. Something must have gone before these concepts of the self. |
| Tx:31.59 | exactly as it is. When every concept has been raised to doubt and | question and been recognized as made on no assumptions which would |

| W1:28.4 | You will not | question what we have already defined. And the purpose of these |
| W1:39.2 | you may feel in answering is not due to the ambiguity of the | question. But do you believe that guilt is hell? If you did, you |
| W1:39.4 | Your holiness is the answer to every | question that was ever asked, is being asked now, or will be asked in |
| W1:39.14 | four times an hour and more if possible, you may ask yourself this | question, repeat today's idea, or preferably both. If temptations |

| W1:64.3 | you by God. It is only the arrogance of the ego that leads you to | question this and only the fear of the ego that induces you to regard |
| W1:66.2 | The ego does constant battle with the Holy Spirit on the fundamental | question of what your function is. So does it do constant battle with |
| W1:68.5 | think you can let all your grievances go. That, however, is simply a | question of motivation. Today we will try to find out how you would |
| W1:72.15 | wane and your hope of success flicker and go out, repeat your | question and your request, remembering that you are asking them of |

| W1:93.3 | Today we | question this, not from the point of view of what you think, but from |

| W1:132.1 | his thoughts' effects. It is but when their source is raised to | question that the hope of freedom comes to him at last. |
| W1:135.25 | you thought confronted you. But they are answers to another kind of | question which remains unanswered yet in need of answering until the |
| W1:138.8 | are made unaware to keep them safely undisturbed, apart from | question and from reason and from doubt. |
| W1:139.1 | what we are? There is no doubt that is not rooted here. There is no | question but reflects this one. There is no conflict that does not |
| W1:139.1 | one. There is no conflict that does not entail the single simple | question, “What am I?” |
| W1:139.2 | Yet who could ask this | question except one who has refused to recognize himself? Only |
| W1:139.2 | to recognize himself? Only refusal to accept yourself could make the | question seem to be sincere. The only thing that can be surely known |
| W1:139.3 | instead? Who is the doubter? What is it he doubts? Whom does he | question? Who can answer him? He merely states that he is not himself |
| W1:139.5 | doubt yourself. It cannot really be a part of you that asks this | question, for it asks of one who knows the answer. Were it part of |

| W1:139.7 | holy Mind of God and in your own. It is so far beyond all doubt and | question that to ask what it must be is all the proof you need to |
| W1:139.8 | Is this a | question or a statement which denies itself in statement? Let us not |

| W1:160.5 | How simply, then, the | question is resolved. Who fears has but denied himself and said, “I |

| W1:196.6 | nor even see that it is there so that it would be possible to | question it. |
| W1:196.7 | To | question it at all, its form must first be changed at least as much |
| M:I.2 | the time. From your demonstration, others learn and so do you. The | question is not whether you will teach, for in that there is no |
| M:1.4 | tired now. It is old and worn and without hope. There was never a | question of outcome, for what can change the Will of God? But time, |
| M:5.9 | of a teacher of God is a reminder. His thoughts ask for the right to | question what the patient has accepted is true. As God's messengers, |
| M:7.1 | This | question really answers itself. Healing cannot be repeated. If the |

| W1:40.6 | I am blessed as a Son of God. I am calm, | quiet, assured, and confident. |
| W1:R1.4 | should be done with your eyes closed and when you are alone in a | quiet place if possible. This is emphasized particularly for reviews |

| W1:107.3 | Then let the sense of | quiet that you felt be multiplied a hundred times and then be |
| W1:109.2 | “I rest in God.” This thought will bring to you the rest and | quiet, peace and stillness, and the safety and the happiness you |
| W1:109.10 | here and rest with you. You rest within the peace of God today, | quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to take his rest and offer it |
| W1:R3.6 | your assistance. Give direction at the start, and then lean back in | quiet faith and let the mind employ the thoughts you gave as they |

| W1:125.1 | until His Word is heard around the world; until your mind, in | quiet listening, accepts the message which the world must hear to |
| W1:125.1 | accepts the message which the world must hear to usher in the | quiet time of peace. |
| W1:125.4 | the holy time of peace. We gather at the throne of God today, the | quiet place within the mind where He abides forever in the holiness |
| W1:125.6 | awaits your silence, for His Word cannot be heard until your mind is | quiet for a while and meaningless desires have been stilled. Await |
| W1:125.6 | a while and meaningless desires have been stilled. Await His Word in | quiet. There is peace within you to be called upon today to help make |
| W1:125.8 | separation nor division in the single Mind of Father and of Son. In | quiet listen to your Self today, and let Him tell you God has never |
| W1:125.9 | Only be | quiet. You will need no rule but this to let your practicing today |
| W1:125.10 | and remind yourself you have a special purpose for this day—in | quiet to receive the Word of God. |
| W1:126.10 | which does not understand forgiveness and seek sanctuary in the | quiet place where thoughts are changed and false beliefs laid by. |
| W1:126.13 | Then spend a | quiet moment, opening your mind to His correction and His Love. And |
| W1:128.8 | refuse to lay this chain upon your mind and tell yourself with | quiet certainty: |
| W1:134.6 | natural and wholly sane, a deep relief to those who offer it; a | quiet blessing where it is received. It does not countenance |
| W1:134.7 | shrieks of sinners mad with guilt. It looks on them with | quiet eyes and merely says to them, “My brother, what you think is |
| W1:137.16 | Let healing be through you this very day. And as you rest in | quiet, be prepared to give as you receive, to hold but what you give, |
| W1:138.12 | As every hour passed, we have declared our choice again in a brief | quiet time devoted to maintaining sanity. And finally we close the |

| W1:R5.2 | Steady our feet, our Father; let our doubts be | quiet and our holy minds be still, and speak to us. We have no words |
| W1:183.6 | with him in silence and repeat God's Name along with him within your | quiet minds, you have established there an altar which reaches to God |
| W1:189.9 | do choose to let Him come. And with this choice we rest. And in our | quiet hearts and open minds His love will blaze its pathway of |

| W1:198.13 | no sense. Now is there tranquil light across the face of earth, made | quiet in a dreamless sleep. And now the Word of God alone remains |
| W1:R6.10 | thoughts to aid your practicing. Instead we give these times of | quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of peace, and |
| W1:R6.10 | Instead we give these times of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in | quiet, speaks of peace, and gives our thoughts whatever meaning they |

| W2:221.1 | to seek the peace that You alone can give. I come in silence. In the | quiet of my heart, the deep recesses of my mind, I wait and listen |
| W2:221.2 | Now do we wait in | quiet. God is here because we wait together. I am sure that He will |
| W2:252.1 | with an intensity that holds all things within it in the calm of | quiet certainty. Its strength comes not from burning impulses which |
| W2:263.1 | You blessed creation—all its purity, its joy, and its eternal, | quiet home in You. |
| W2:265.2 | In | quiet would I look upon the world, which but reflects Your thoughts |
| W2:267.1 | directed by His Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held forever | quiet and at peace within His loving arms. Each heartbeat calls His |
| W2:270.2 | The | quiet of today will bless our hearts, and through them peace will |

| W2:291.2 | This day my mind is | quiet to receive the thoughts You offer me. And I accept what comes |
| W2:291.2 | to You. But You are wholly certain. Father, lead Your Son along the | quiet path that ends in You. Let my forgiveness be complete, and let |
| W2:303.1 | be still with me while Heaven's Son is born. Let earthly sounds be | quiet and the sights to which I am accustomed disappear. Let Christ |
| W2:305.1 | Who uses but Christ's vision finds a peace so deep and | quiet, undisturbable and wholly changeless that the world contains no |
| W2:314.1 | the present has been freed, extending its security and peace into a | quiet future filled with hope? |
| W2:336.2 | In | quiet may forgiveness wipe away my dreams of separation and of sin. |
| M:4.8 | Now comes a “period of settling down.” This is a | quiet time in which the teacher of God rests a while in reasonable |
| M:4.22 | them it looks, seeking until it finds. And having found, it rests in | quiet certainty on that alone to which all faithfulness is due. |
| M:15.3 | Or do you still attempt to take His role from Him? Learn to be | quiet, for His Voice is heard in stillness. And His Judgment comes to |

| M:16.4 | may be that the teacher of God is not in a situation which fosters | quiet thought as he awakes. If this is so, let him but remember that |

| Tx:14.41 | In the temple Holiness waits | quietly for the return of them that love it. The Presence knows they |
| Tx:16.2 | means. Yet of this you may be sure—if you will merely sit | quietly by and let the Holy Spirit relate through you, you will |
| Tx:16.31 | near, and you will cross the bridge in perfect safety, translated | quietly from war to peace. For the illusion of love will never |

| Tx:17.12 | literally transforms vision and lets you see the real world reaching | quietly and gently across chaos and removing all illusions which had |
| Tx:18.11 | Sonship, whole and beautiful, safe in your love. Heaven has entered | quietly, for all illusions have been gently brought unto the truth in |
| Tx:19.37 | and goal in line. The peace He laid deep within both of you] will | quietly extend to every aspect of your lives, surrounding both of you |
| Tx:19.43 | the Holy Spirit to share with you. The little wall will fall away so | quietly beneath the wings of peace! For peace will send its |
| Tx:19.44 | stand between Him and His holy purpose, for it is yours. But let Him | quietly extend the miracle of your relationship to everyone contained |
| Tx:19.86 | is yielded to love's real attraction. The end of sin, which nestles | quietly in the safety of your relationship, protected by your union, |
| Tx:19.86 | by love, preserved from every thought that would attack it and | quietly made ready to fulfill the mighty task for which it was given |
| Tx:20.53 | offers you peace and understanding? Then lay aside the body and | quietly transcend it, rising to welcome what you really want. And |
| Tx:20.67 | off by valuing the “something else,” and what was never lost will | quietly return. It has been saved for you. Vision would not be |
| Tx:21.62 | its place. Reason does not attack but takes the place of madness | quietly, replacing madness if it be the will of the insane to listen |
| Tx:22.49 | Can the illusion of immovability be long defended from what is | quietly passed through and gone beyond? |
| Tx:22.55 | form of error is no longer seen, and reason, joined with love, looks | quietly on all confusion, observing merely, “This was a mistake.” And |
| Tx:27.36 | In quietness are all things answered and is every problem | quietly resolved. In conflict there can be no answer and no |
| Tx:28.11 | The miracle comes | quietly into the mind that stops an instant and is still. It reaches |
| Tx:29.7 | and how frequently you have demanded that love go away and leave you | quietly alone in “peace.” |
| Tx:29.42 | forgot in such a world, it is a little while till timelessness comes | quietly to take the place of time. |
| W1:31.3 | calmly, without any special investment on your part. As you sit and | quietly watch your thoughts, repeat today's idea to yourself as often |
| W1:33.5 | aware of distress. It may be necessary to take a minute or so to sit | quietly and repeat the idea to yourself several times. Closing your |
| W1:41.5 | period today. In the morning, as soon as you get up if possible, sit | quietly for some three to five minutes with your eyes closed. At the |
| W1:42.3 | you go to sleep. It is better, however, to wait until you can sit | quietly by yourself at a time when you feel ready than it is to be |
| W1:44.7 | your mind, letting go every kind of interference and intrusion by | quietly sinking past them. Your mind cannot be stopped in this unless |
| W1:44.7 | Try to observe your passing thoughts without involvement and slip | quietly by them. |
| W1:49.5 | when necessary, but closed when possible. And be sure that you sit | quietly and repeat the idea for today slowly whenever you can, |
| W1:69.4 | Very | quietly now, with your eyes closed, try to let go of all the content |
| W1:77.5 | After this brief introductory phase, wait | quietly for the assurance that your request is granted. You have |

| W1:157.6 | he may come the sooner to the same experience in which the world is | quietly forgot and Heaven is remembered for a while. |

| W1:189.8 | that you have interposed between the Son and God the Father to be | quietly removed forever. God will do His part in joyful and immediate |
| W2:WF.4 | Forgiveness, on the other hand, is still and | quietly does nothing. It offends no aspect of reality nor seeks to |

| W2:254.2 | thoughts direct our words or actions. When such thoughts occur, we | quietly step back and look at them, and then we let them go. We do |

| Tx:4.94 | more helpful to correct it in a specific context. Ego-illusions are | quite specific, although they frequently change and although the mind |
| Tx:4.95 | so, individual egos perceive different kinds of threat which are | quite specific in their own judgment. For example, although all forms |

| Tx:6.70 | wrong. Many thought that I was attacking them, even though it was | quite apparent that I was not. An insane learner learns strange |

| Tx:13.2 | The very real difference between perception and knowledge becomes | quite apparent if you consider this: There is nothing partial about |
| Tx:13.47 | do not know it. But you have the means for learning it and seeing it | quite clearly. The Holy Spirit uses logic as easily and as well as |
| Tx:13.79 | Never forget the love of God, Who has remembered you. For it is | quite impossible that He could ever let His Son drop from His loving |
| Tx:14.34 | in the communication that God Himself wills with His Son is | quite impossible here. Unbroken and uninterrupted love flows |
| Tx:15.45 | anything. You would make no attempt to judge because it would be | quite apparent to you that you do not know what anything means. You |
| Tx:15.95 | it burrows underground and hides in darkness, to emerge in forms | quite different from what it is. Yet it is necessary to examine each |
| Tx:16.12 | would show you instantly that order of difficulty in miracles is | quite impossible, for it involves a contradiction of what miracles |
| Tx:16.13 | You have done miracles, but it is | quite apparent that you have not done them alone. You have succeeded |
| Tx:16.25 | will take the place of what you took in to replace them. They are | quite real as part of the Self you do not know. And they communicate |
| Tx:16.31 | meaning if love is everything. You will go through this last undoing | quite unharmed and will at last emerge as yourself. This is the last |
| Tx:16.44 | of this offering, the fantasies which center around it are often | quite open. Here they are usually judged to be acceptable and even |
| Tx:17.45 | but it makes the relationship seem disturbed, disjunctive, and even | quite distressing. The reason is quite clear. For the relationship as |
| Tx:17.45 | disturbed, disjunctive, and even quite distressing. The reason is | quite clear. For the relationship as it is, is out of line with its |
| Tx:17.47 | appalled. Their perception of the relationship may even become | quite disorganized. And yet, the former organization of their |

| Tx:17.60 | and concentrate on everything which helps you meet it. It is | quite noticeable that this approach has brought you closer to the |
| Tx:17.61 | is used for truth and sanity, its outcome must be peace. And this is | quite apart from what the outcome is. If peace is the condition of |
| Tx:18.3 | form of acting out for satisfaction. While this appears to introduce | quite variable behavior, a far more serious effect lies in the |
| Tx:18.14 | Does not a world that seems | quite real arise in dreams? Yet think what this world is. It is |
| Tx:18.40 | to be impossible will be if God so wills it, but you will remain | quite unaware of it. If you believe the holy instant is difficult for |
| Tx:18.64 | happens. Afterwards, you will see the body again, but never | quite the same. And every instant that you spend without awareness of |
| Tx:18.87 | Everything these messages relay to you is | quite external. There are no messages which speak of what lies |
| Tx:18.87 | could speak of this. Its eyes perceive it not; its senses remain | quite unaware of it; its tongue cannot relay its messages. Yet God |
| Tx:19.21 | ego. The idea of sin is wholly sacrosanct to its thought system and | quite unapproachable except through reverence and awe. It is the most |
| Tx:19.51 | perception. What love would look upon is meaningless to fear and | quite invisible. Relationships in this world are the result of how |
| Tx:19.92 | of separation; the great amnesia in which the memory of God seems | quite forgotten; the cleavage of your Self from you—the fear of |
| Tx:20.62 | but in illusion, and so the illusion of a brother as a body is | quite in keeping with the purpose of unholiness. Because of this |
| Tx:21.8 | Listen—perhaps you catch a hint of an ancient state not | quite forgotten; dim, perhaps, and yet not altogether unfamiliar, |
| Tx:21.40 | so it still is seen. Yet in the light of vision, it is looked upon | quite differently. You can have faith in it to serve the Holy |
| Tx:21.41 | not be fearful to admit. Fear in association with sin the ego deems | quite appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no fear to let you |
| Tx:21.86 | The constancy of joy is a condition | quite alien to your understanding. Yet if you could even imagine what |
| Tx:22.7 | explains its sight to you. Your vision would, of course, render this | quite unnecessary. Yet if your eyes are closed and you have called |
| Tx:22.29 | here is the beginning of a vision that has meaning. Vision is sense, | quite literally. If it is not the body's sight, it must be |
| Tx:22.38 | When you come to the place where the branch in the road is | quite apparent, you cannot go ahead. You must go either one way or |
| Tx:23.38 | of chaos govern all illusions. Their forms conflict, making it seem | quite possible to value some above the others. Yet each one rests as |
| Tx:23.40 | you know whether you chose the stairs to Heaven or the way to hell? | Quite easily. How do you feel? Is peace in your awareness? Are you |
| Tx:23.51 | higher place look down upon it. From there will your perspective be | quite different. Here in the midst of it, it does seem real. Here you |
| Tx:23.55 | he value the body's offerings. The senselessness of conquest is | quite apparent from the quiet sphere above the battleground. What can |
| Tx:24.36 | is impossible. Yet to those who wish to heal and not attack, it is | quite obvious. The purpose of attack is in the mind, and its effects |
| Tx:24.53 | Yet will his perfect sinlessness release you both, for holiness is | quite impartial, with one judgment made for all it looks upon. And |
| Tx:26.31 | in the end is [nothing. It] is but a little hindrance to eternity, | quite meaningless to the real Teacher of the world. Yet since you do |
| Tx:26.36 | is true and pass from mere imagining into belief and into madness, | quite convinced that where he would prefer to be, he is.] |
| Tx:26.48 | forms, but none has meaning. Brought to truth, its senselessness is | quite apparent. Kept apart from truth, it seems to have a meaning and |
| Tx:27.68 | does not depend on him. Whatever cause they have is something | quite apart from him, and what he sees is separate from his mind. He |
| Tx:28.5 | The Holy Spirit's use of memory is | quite apart from time. He does not seek to use it as a means to keep |
| Tx:28.17 | the mind is recognized as not within the body, and its innocence is | quite apart from it and where all healing is. Where then is healing? |
| Tx:28.64 | is sickness. It is like the house set upon straw. It seems to be | quite solid and substantial in itself. Yet its stability cannot be |
| Tx:29.1 | the least and littlest gap would represent in His eternal love is | quite impossible. For it would mean His love could harbor just a hint |
| Tx:30.38 | Idols are | quite specific. But your will is universal, being limitless. And so |
| Tx:30.47 | death that here are dreamed, the myriad of forms that fear can take; | quite undisturbed, the Thought God holds of you remains exactly as it |
| Tx:30.59 | Not yet is Heaven | quite remembered, for the purpose of forgiveness still remains. Yet |
| Tx:30.72 | real world is achieved when you perceive the basis of forgiveness is | quite real and fully justified. While you regard it as a gift |
| Tx:31.35 | learn they are but one. The roads this world can offer seem to be | quite large in number, but the time must come when everyone begins to |
| Tx:31.57 | reacts to wicked things? Your concept of yourself will still remain | quite meaningless. And you will not perceive that you can interact |
| W1:I.5 | Some of the ideas you will find hard to believe, and others will seem | quite startling. It does not matter. You are merely asked to apply |
| W1:9.2 | what seems to be pictured before it is not there. This idea can be | quite disturbing and may meet with active resistance in any number of |
| W1:10.4 | these exercises and introduce them by repeating the idea for today | quite slowly to yourself. Then add: |
| W1:12.2 | These exercises are done with eyes open. Look around you, this time | quite slowly. Try to pace yourself so that the slow shifting of your |
| W1:14.3 | steps in this exchange, which can truly be called salvation, can be | quite difficult and even quite painful. Some of them will lead you |
| W1:14.3 | which can truly be called salvation, can be quite difficult and even | quite painful. Some of them will lead you directly into fear. You |
| W1:14.6 | about whom you are concerned. In each case, name the “disaster” | quite specifically. Do not use general terms. For example, do not |
| W1:15.3 | “light episodes.” They may take many different forms, some of them | quite unexpected. Do not be afraid of them. They are signs that you |
| W1:15.6 | while you repeat the idea to yourself. The idea should be repeated | quite slowly each time. |
| W1:16.4 | any “little” thought which tends to elude the search. This is | quite difficult until you get used to it. You will find that it is |
| W1:19.5 | as possible in selecting subjects for the practice period should be | quite familiar to you by now and will no longer be repeated each day, |
| W1:20.1 | We have been | quite casual about our practice periods thus far. There has been |
| W1:25.8 | Say this | quite slowly, without shifting your eyes until you have completed the |
| W1:26.9 | connection and which has caused you concern, referring to each one | quite specifically, saying: |
| W1:26.11 | distressing possibilities available for each situation you use and | quite possibly more. It is much more helpful to cover a few |
| W1:27.7 | the other. You will probably miss several applications and perhaps | quite a number. Do not be disturbed by this, but do try to keep on |
| W1:28.10 | Each application should be made | quite slowly and as thoughtfully as possible. There is no hurry. |
| W1:36.3 | idea for today several times slowly. Then open your eyes and look | quite slowly about you, applying the idea specifically to whatever |
| W1:36.6 | with your eyes closed. All applications should, of course, be made | quite slowly, as effortlessly and unhurriedly as possible. |
| W1:40.2 | Do not miss a practice period because of this. You can practice | quite well under almost any circumstance, if you really want to. |
| W1:41.7 | It is | quite possible to reach God. In fact it is very easy because it is |
| W1:42.4 | looking about you. Then close your eyes and repeat the idea again, | quite slowly. After this, try to think of nothing except thoughts |
| W1:44.5 | Your mind is no longer wholly untrained. You are | quite ready to learn the form of exercise we will use today, but you |
| W1:49.1 | It is | quite possible to listen to God's Voice all through the day without |
| W1:R1.6 | will note that for review purposes the ideas are not always given in | quite their original form of statement. Use them as they are given |
| W1:51.3 | merely an illusion of reality, because my judgments have been made | quite apart from reality. I am willing to recognize the lack of |
| W1:64.10 | it requires. You may need to repeat “Let me not forget my function” | quite often, to help you concentrate. |
| W1:68.6 | you hold what you regard as major grievances. Some of these will be | quite easy to find. Then think of the seemingly minor grievances you |
| W1:69.4 | the clouds because you seem to be standing outside the circle and | quite apart from it. |
| W1:72.6 | The body's apparent reality makes this view of God | quite convincing. In fact, if the body were real, it would be |
| W1:77.4 | Begin the longer practice periods by telling yourself | quite confidently that you are entitled to miracles. Closing your |
| W1:78.1 | Perhaps it is not yet | quite clear to you that each decision that you make is one between a |
| W1:130.6 | you cannot see two worlds. It also teaches that the one you see is | quite consistent from the point of view from which you see it. It is |
| W1:131.16 | see before you in the light reflects the truth you knew and did not | quite forget in wandering away in dreams. |
| W1:132.6 | your mind. But it is pride that argues you have come into a world | quite separate from yourself, impervious to what you think, and quite |
| W1:132.6 | quite separate from yourself, impervious to what you think, and | quite apart from what you chance to think it is. |
| W1:135.9 | and hardly worth the least defense, need merely be perceived as | quite apart from you, and it becomes a healthy, serviceable |
| W1:135.17 | see that here and now is everything it needs to guarantee a future | quite unlike the past without a continuity of any old ideas and sick |
| W1:136.8 | Sickness is a decision. It is not a thing that happens to you | quite unsought, which makes you weak and brings you suffering. It is |
| W1:136.14 | is not the truth right now, as it must be. The thoughts of God are | quite apart from time. For time is but another meaningless defense |
| W1:153.15 | Today we practice in a form we will maintain for | quite a while. We will begin each day by giving our attention to the |
| W1:158.3 | The time is set already. It appears to be | quite arbitrary. Yet there is no step along the road that anyone but |
| W1:159.5 | from this world into one made holy by forgiveness. Things which seem | quite solid here are merely shadows there, transparent, faintly seen, |
| W1:181.4 | has been involvement with your past and future goals. You have been | quite preoccupied with how extremely different the goals this course |
| W1:186.3 | Today's idea may seem | quite sobering until you see its meaning. All it says is that your |
| W1:196.8 | will be easy if you take this one today. From there we go ahead | quite rapidly. For once you understand it is impossible that you be |
| W1:196.10 | which terror seems to grip your mind so wholly that escape appears | quite hopeless. When you realize once and for all that it is you you |
| W1:199.3 | idea and hold it very dear. Be not concerned that to the ego it is | quite insane. The ego holds the body dear because it dwells in it and |
| W2:WIW.1 | been changed to one of true forgiveness will the world be seen in | quite another light, and one which leads to truth, where all the |
| W2:WIW.2 | But eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely. Now mistakes become | quite possible, for certainty has gone. |
| W2:WIB.3 | Like other dreams, it sometimes seems to picture happiness but can | quite suddenly revert to fear, where every dream is born. For only |
| M:I.3 | and therefore learn. To this the verbal content of your teaching is | quite irrelevant. It may coincide with it or it may not. It is the |

| Tx:31.53 | this concept of the self. And both would go if either one were ever | raised to doubt. The Holy Spirit does not seek to throw you into |

| Tx:2.32 | to your own original state. It can thus be utilized to restore, | rather than to go back to the less mature. |
| Tx:2.38 | They had already split their minds and were bent on further dividing | rather than reintegrating. The levels they introduced into their |
| Tx:2.108 | it will be undertaken by man with my help. It is a final healing | rather than a meting out of punishment, however much man may think |
| Tx:3.8 | it entails correction. Without this it is essentially judgmental | rather than healing. |
| Tx:3.13 | The best defense, as always, is not to attack another's position but | rather to protect the truth. It is unwise to accept any concept if |
| Tx:3.18 | the generalization which is applicable to all single instances | rather than building up the generalization after analyzing numerous |
| Tx:3.34 | of the miracle. Properly speaking, “a vision of God” is a miracle | rather than a revelation. The fact that perception is involved at all |
| Tx:3.40 | first split that man introduced into himself. He became a perceiver | rather than a creator in the true sense. Consciousness is correctly |
| Tx:3.40 | The ego is a man-made attempt to perceive himself as he wished to be | rather than as he is. This is an example of the created-creator |
| Tx:3.61 | you will be unable to avoid judging your own. The choice to judge | rather than to know was the cause of the loss of peace. Judgment is |
| Tx:3.73 | which everything is in direct opposition to God. Yet he attracts men | rather than repels them, and they are seen as willing to “sell” him |
| Tx:4.15 | in order to overcome its doubts. It will be doubtful forever, or | rather as long as you believe in it. You who made it cannot trust it |
| Tx:4.69 | by keeping its primary motivation unconscious and raising control | rather than sensible judgment to predominance. The ego has every |
| Tx:4.74 | with the power of its own creator. However, the decision to do this, | rather than the ability to do it, is what the ego cannot tolerate. |
| Tx:4.79 | senseless—to attribute it to the mental illness of the patient | rather than his own and to limit his questions about both the patient |
| Tx:4.95 | except in so far as it is utilized to establish separateness | rather than to abolish it. The communication system of the ego is |
| Tx:4.103 | misused as a way of exerting the ego's domination over other egos, | rather than as a real experiment in the cooperation of minds. |
| Tx:5.71 | eternity, but it is tragic in time. You have elected to be in time | rather than eternity and have therefore changed your belief in your |
| Tx:5.94 | If you allow yourself to feel guilty, you will reinforce the error | rather than allow it to be undone for you. |
| Tx:6.1 | the equally irrational conclusion that a brother is worthy of attack | rather than of love follows. What can be expected from insane |
| Tx:6.9 | God should want to teach if they are to realize their own salvation. | Rather, teach your own perfect immunity, which is the truth in you, |
| Tx:6.19 | in any other way, you are using it as a weapon for assault | rather than as the call for peace for which it was intended. The |
| Tx:6.69 | This step appears to exacerbate conflict | rather than resolve it, because it is the beginning step in reversing |
| Tx:6.69 | very acute conflict. At this point, many try to accept the conflict | rather than take the next step towards its resolution. Having taken |
| Tx:7.4 | The ego demands reciprocal rights because it is competitive | rather than loving. It is always willing to make a “deal,” but it |
| Tx:7.23 | they all contribute to one result, and by so doing, their similarity | rather than their differences is emphasized. You can excel in many |
| Tx:8.80 | the ego's belief that the body is the proper aim for healing. Ask | rather that the Holy Spirit teach you the right perception of the |
| Tx:10.65 | of the crucifixion condemns. Teach not that I died in vain. Teach | rather that I did not die by demonstrating that I live in you. For |
| Tx:12.15 | made it, but you cannot accept love because you did not. You would | rather be slaves of the crucifixion than Sons of God in redemption. |
| Tx:12.32 | ties the future to the present and extends the present | rather than the past. But if you interpret your function as |
| Tx:13.88 | Ask not to be forgiven, for this has already been accomplished. Ask, | rather, to learn how to forgive and restore what always was to your |
| Tx:14.21 | made. It has no meaning, for its purpose is not communication, but | rather the disruption of communication. If the purpose of language is |
| Tx:14.24 | without deceit, for otherwise it becomes the messenger of ignorance | rather than a helper in the search for truth. |
| Tx:14.26 | they were not created. Their creation was not a point of view, but | rather a certainty. Uncertainty brought to certainty does not retain |
| Tx:14.42 | and their meaning seems to lie only in shifting interpretations | rather than in themselves. |
| Tx:14.45 | ready at last for Heaven. There, holiness is not a reflection but | rather the actual condition of what was but reflected to them here. |
| Tx:15.33 | be given you. Yet think not you can substitute your plan for His. | Rather, join with me in His that we may release all those who would |
| Tx:15.35 | that what God wills takes time. And this means only that you would | rather delay the recognition that His Will is so. The holy instant is |
| Tx:15.99 | of not accepting this has been so great that you have given God away | rather than look at it. For if God would demand total sacrifice of |
| Tx:16.33 | they would not share with others, are trying to live with guilt | rather than die of it. This is the choice they see. And love to them |
| Tx:16.65 | and that escape from pain is really possible. Find hope and comfort | rather than despair in this: You could no longer find even the |
| Tx:17.28 | not to make happy. But the holy relationship shares God's purpose, | rather than aiming to make a substitute for it. Every special |
| Tx:18.14 | this world is. It is clearly not the world you saw before you slept. | Rather, it is a distortion of the world, planned solely around what |
| Tx:18.36 | make way for it. Purification is of God alone and therefore for you. | Rather than seek to prepare yourself for Him, try to think thus: |
| Tx:18.46 | to let Him exchange this instant for the holy one which you would | rather have. He will never fail in this. But forget not that your |
| Tx:19.20 | him and willed that he be forever. Is this humility? Or is it, | rather, an attempt to wrest creation away from truth and keep it |
| Tx:19.24 | Would you not | rather that all this be nothing more than a mistake, entirely |
| Tx:19.48 | nothing when you had greater faith in its protection. Would you not | rather greet the summer sun than fix your gaze upon a disappearing |
| Tx:20.70 | body is a better home, a safer shelter for God's Son? Why would you | rather look on it than on the truth? How can the engine of |
| Tx:21.13 | you choose against it now, it will not be because it is obscure, but | rather that this little cost seemed in your judgment to be too much |
| Tx:22.13 | could it be a fearful sight or sound that drew them gently into one. | Rather, in each the other saw a perfect shelter where his Self could |
| Tx:22.53 | so easily in what God loves and would have free forever. But be you | rather grateful that you can be the means to serve His end. This is |
| Tx:24.64 | the truth, for if it were, you would be lost indeed. Be thankful, | rather, it is given you to see his holiness because it is the truth. |
| Tx:24.65 | in your brother's, such is your condemnation of your own. Weave, | rather then, a frame of holiness around him that the truth may shine |
| Tx:25.16 | within Himself. His masterpiece He offers you to see. And would you | rather see the frame instead of this? And see the picture not at all? |
| Tx:26.91 | By this do I deny the Presence of the Father and the Son. And I would | rather know of Them than see injustice which Their Presence shines |
| Tx:28.5 | time. He does not seek to use it as a means to keep the past, but | rather as a way to let it go. Memory holds the message it receives |
| Tx:28.13 | yet disturb it not. And what is now remembered is not fear, but | rather is the cause that fear was made to render unremembered and |
| Tx:28.27 | They are the dream's alternative, the choice to be the dreamer | rather than deny the active role in making up the dream. They are the |
| Tx:28.39 | illusion of himself, for your identity depends on his reality. Think | rather of him as a mind in which illusions still persist, but as a |

| W1:8.3 | truth is blocked. Recognizing that your mind has been merely blank, | rather than believing that it is filled with real ideas, is the first |
| W1:10.3 | that the thoughts of which you are aware are meaningless, outside | rather than within, and then stressed their past rather than their |
| W1:10.3 | outside rather than within, and then stressed their past | rather than their present status. Now we are emphasizing that the |
| W1:12.5 | terms happen to occur to you. If terms which seem positive | rather than negative occur to you, include them. For example, you |
| W1:25.5 | for everything. The recognition that they are meaningless, | rather than “good” or “bad,” is the only way to accomplish this. The |
| W1:26.1 | must therefore learn how it can be used for your own best interests | rather than against them. |
| W1:28.3 | You are not defining it in past terms. You are asking what it is, | rather than telling it what it is. You are not binding its meaning to |
| W1:30.2 | to recognize is there. Thus we are trying to join with what we see, | rather than keeping it apart from us. That is the fundamental |
| W1:30.5 | eyes closed, using whatever subjects come to mind and looking within | rather than without. Today's idea applies equally to both. |
| W1:35.3 | for today's idea because the emphasis for today is on the perceiver | rather than on what he perceives. |
| W1:39.5 | are encouraged. If you want to exceed the minimum requirements, more | rather than longer sessions are recommended, although both are |
| W1:42.1 | not your own, that gives you power. And it is His gift to you, | rather than your own, which offers vision to you. |
| W1:R1.3 | follow each idea literally or thoroughly in the practice periods. | Rather, try merely to emphasize the central point and think about it |
| W1:R1.4 | You will need it most in situations which appear to be upsetting, | rather than in those which already seem to be calm and quiet. |
| W1:52.6 | Yet my mind is part of creation and part of its Creator. Would I not | rather join the thinking of the universe than to obscure all that is |
| W1:55.2 | who I am. I am determined to see the witnesses to the truth in me, | rather than those that show me an illusion of myself. |
| W1:65.6 | to concentrate only on thoughts related to the idea for today. | Rather, try to uncover each thought that arises which would interfere |
| W1:74.11 | you will feel a deep sense of joy and an increased alertness | rather than a feeling of drowsiness and enervation. Joy characterizes |
| W1:88.2 | [75] The light has come. In choosing salvation | rather than attack, I merely choose to recognize what is already |
| W1:95.10 | This tolerance for weakness will enable us to overlook it, | rather than give it power to delay our learning. If we give it power |
| W1:100.10 | He will be there. And you can reach Him now. What could you | rather look upon in place of Him Who waits that you may look on Him? |
| W1:138.6 | complicated world, Heaven appears to take the form of choice | rather than merely being what it is. Of all the choices you have |
| W1:155.11 | of God will make no journeys. There will be no wish to be illusion | rather than the truth. And we step forth toward this as we progress |
| W1:181.1 | what you have perceived in him. You do not look beyond his errors. | Rather, they are magnified, becoming blocks to your awareness of the |

| M:I.1 | learner are separated, the teacher giving something to the learner | rather than to himself. Further, the act of teaching is regarded as a |
| M:10.2 | contrary, he puts himself in a position where judgment through him | rather than by him can occur. And this judgment is neither “good” nor |
| M:15.4 | to you, regardless of your judgments on its gifts, that you would | rather have? You will be judged, and judged in fairness and in |

reach (145) | ||
| Tx:1.102 | dense cover over miracle impulses and which make it hard for them to | reach consciousness. The nature of any interpersonal relationship is |
| Tx:2.45 | is a sign of their fear of Atonement and their unwillingness to | reach the altar itself. The real beauty of the temple cannot be seen |
| Tx:2.80 | described above but will not obliterate the fear. It is possible to | reach a state in which you bring your will under my guidance without |
| Tx:3.3 | to you. Revelation may occasionally reveal the end to you, but to | reach it the means are needed. |
| Tx:4.8 | the same thought system can stand on two foundations. Nothing can | reach the Soul from the ego, and nothing from the Soul can strengthen |
| Tx:4.15 | as it is. You are part of reality, which stands unchanged beyond the | reach of your ego but within easy reach of your Soul. When you are |
| Tx:4.15 | which stands unchanged beyond the reach of your ego but within easy | reach of your Soul. When you are afraid, be still and know that God |
| Tx:4.15 | dispute this because the ego cannot know what is as far beyond its | reach as you are. |
| Tx:5.9 | This is the invitation to the Holy Spirit. I told you that I could | reach up and bring the Holy Spirit down to you, but I can bring Him |
| Tx:5.12 | raise their perceptions until they became so lofty that they could | reach almost back to Him. The Holy Spirit is the Mind of the |
| Tx:8.41 | journey is the way to what is true. Leave all deception behind and | reach beyond all attempts of the ego to hold you back. I go before |
| Tx:8.41 | ego to hold you back. I go before you, because I am beyond the ego. | Reach therefore for my hand, because you want to transcend the ego. |
| Tx:8.55 | use the body for attack, it is harmful to you. If you use it only to | reach the minds of those who believe they are bodies and teach them |
| Tx:8.57 | part of me, you are. To communicate with part of God Himself is to | reach beyond the Kingdom to its Creator through His Voice, which He |
| Tx:8.61 | by which the part of the mind you have separated from your Soul can | reach beyond its distortions and return to the Soul. The ego's temple |
| Tx:8.79 | The Holy Spirit teaches you to use your body only to | reach your brothers, so He can teach His message through you. This |
| Tx:9.61 | the love of God? Can anything, then, exceed your will? Nothing can | reach you from beyond it because, being in God, you encompass |
| Tx:11.91 | has no direction. Time seems to go in one direction, but when you | reach its end, it will roll up like a long carpet which has spread |
| Tx:12.50 | aspects of consciousness at the same time and thus enables them to | reach each other. The present is before time was and will be when |
| Tx:12.52 | Now is the time of salvation, for now is the release from time. | Reach out to all your brothers and touch them with the touch of |
| Tx:13.2 | as perception can be, is without meaning in Heaven. Perception can | reach everywhere under His guidance, for the vision of Christ beholds |
| Tx:13.10 | Heaven and to Him. They witness to what you do not know, and as they | reach the gates of Heaven, God will open them. For never would He |
| Tx:14.46 | eternity nearer or farther. But eternity itself is beyond all time. | Reach out of time and touch it, with the help of its reflection in |
| Tx:15.10 | instant, now, and think of it as all there is of time. Nothing can | reach you here out of the past, and it is here that you are |
| Tx:15.85 | let you see the Great Rays shining from them, so unlimited that they | reach to God. It is this shift in vision which is accomplished in the |
| Tx:16.74 | profoundly shaken. Yet the one thing which the ego never allows to | reach awareness is that the special relationship is the acting out of |
| Tx:17.9 | complete it thus. The real world, in its loveliness, you learn to | reach. Fantasies are all undone, and no one and nothing remains still |
| Tx:18.28 | you that this goal is possible and will strengthen your desire to | reach it. And in your desire lies its accomplishment. Your desire is |
| Tx:18.56 | is internal. [It is not made up of different parts which | reach each other.] Mind reaches to itself. It does not go out. Within |
| Tx:18.58 | You can stretch out your hand and | reach to Heaven. You whose hands are joined have begun to reach |
| Tx:18.58 | hand and reach to Heaven. You whose hands are joined have begun to | reach beyond the body, but not outside yourselves, to reach your |
| Tx:18.58 | have begun to reach beyond the body, but not outside yourselves, to | reach your shared Identity together. Could this be outside you? Where |
| Tx:18.66 | road to the goal you have accepted. It is extremely difficult to | reach Atonement by fighting against sin. [Enormous effort is expended |
| Tx:18.79 | you. And under its beneficence, your little garden will expand and | reach out to everyone who thirsts for living water but has grown too |
| Tx:19.40 | across the whole creation, it must begin with you and from you | reach to everyone who calls and bring him rest by joining you. |
| Tx:19.99 | is ready. Once he has found his brother, he is ready. Yet merely to | reach the place is not enough. A journey without a purpose is still |
| Tx:20.36 | denied you. Not one seeming difficulty but will melt away before you | reach it. You need take thought for nothing, careless of everything |
| Tx:20.60 | wanting of the purpose has been shaken. For if a goal is possible to | reach, the means to do so must be possible as well. |
| Tx:21.7 | the body as all they have and all their brothers have. They try to | reach each other, and they fail and fail again. And they adjust to |
| Tx:22.4 | your union. It must extend, as you extended when you joined. It must | reach out beyond itself, as you reached out beyond the body to let |
| Tx:22.6 | not realize it is impossible to understand what fails entirely to | reach you. |
| Tx:22.28 | of sin. Would you have partial forgiveness for yourself? Can you | reach Heaven while a single sin still tempts you to remain in misery? |
| Tx:23.13 | they fragment. But truth is indivisible and far beyond their little | reach. You will remember what you know when you have learned you |
| Tx:24.8 | journey with him to a goal that is the same? Would you not help him | reach it in every way you could if his attainment of it were |
| Tx:24.8 | can never share, for it depends on goals that you alone can | reach. And he must never reach them, or your goal is jeopardized. Can |
| Tx:24.8 | for it depends on goals that you alone can reach. And he must never | reach them, or your goal is jeopardized. Can love have meaning where |
| Tx:24.15 | can you know the truth? What answer that the Holy Spirit gives can | reach you, when it is your specialness to which you listen and which |
| Tx:24.38 | consider not the means by which salvation is attained nor how to | reach it. But do consider, and consider well, whether it is your wish |
| Tx:25.8 | but that the link that has been given you to join the truth may | reach to you through what you understand. Father and Son and Holy |
| Tx:25.31 | For you make it now, the instant when all time becomes a means to | reach a goal. Make then your choice. But recognize that in this |
| Tx:26.2 | a wall so seeming solid that it looks as if what is inside can never | reach without, and what is out can never reach and join with what is |
| Tx:26.2 | if what is inside can never reach without, and what is out can never | reach and join with what is locked away within the wall. Each part |
| Tx:26.8 | —born again each instant, untouched by time, and far beyond the | reach of any sacrifice of life or death. For neither did he make, and |
| Tx:26.19 | between this world and Heaven. It is not a place, and when you | reach it is apart from time. Here is the meeting-place where thoughts |
| Tx:26.27 | a place for Heaven's altar to rise and tower far above the world and | reach beyond the universe to touch the heart of all creation? What is |
| Tx:26.31 | why should you waste it going nowhere when it can be used to | reach a goal as high as learning can achieve? Think not the way to |
| Tx:28.15 | God to flow across it, making it a bridge an instant will suffice to | reach beyond? For God has closed it with Himself. His memory has not |
| Tx:28.15 | on a shore where he can glimpse another shore which he can never | reach. His Father wills that he be lifted up and gently carried over. |
| Tx:28.62 | it can be seen as not your home but merely as an aid to help you | reach the home where God abides. |
| Tx:29.46 | Whenever you attempt to | reach a goal in which the body's betterment is cast as major |

| Tx:30.69 | were free to learn their will is one. And thus the Will of God must | reach to their awareness. Nor can they forget for long that it is but |
| Tx:31.35 | was the time they could have learned their greatest lesson. All must | reach this point and go beyond it. It is true indeed there is no |
| Tx:31.43 | without a self and make one as you go along. And by the time you | reach “maturity,” you have perfected it to meet the world on equal |
| Tx:31.83 | power is the only strength he has; his grasp cannot exceed its tiny | reach. Would you be this if Christ appeared to you in all His glory, |
| W1:25.4 | immediate vicinity. What you do not understand is what you want to | reach him for. And it is this that makes your contact with him |
| W1:41.6 | world and all the foolish thoughts of the world. You are trying to | reach past all these things. You are trying to leave appearances and |
| W1:41.7 | It is quite possible to | reach God. In fact it is very easy because it is the most natural |
| W1:42.7 | and you have let obviously irrelevant thoughts intrude. You may also | reach a point where no thoughts at all seem to come to mind. If such |
| W1:44.3 | Today we are going to attempt to | reach that light. For this purpose, we will use a form of practice |
| W1:44.6 | might find it helpful to remind yourself from time to time that to | reach light is to escape from darkness, whatever you may believe to |
| W1:44.6 | contrary. God is the Light in which you see. You are attempting to | reach Him. |
| W1:45.3 | Where, then, are your real thoughts? Today we will attempt to | reach them. We will have to look for them in your mind because that |
| W1:45.8 | past all the unreal thoughts that cover the truth in your mind, and | reach to the eternal. |
| W1:45.11 | the Father and God the Son. For such is the place you are trying to | reach. You will probably be unable as yet to realize how high you are |
| W1:45.11 | this is no idle game but an exercise in holiness and an attempt to | reach the Kingdom of Heaven. |
| W1:47.4 | Today we will try to | reach past your own weakness to the Source of real strength. Four |
| W1:47.8 | In the latter phase of the practice period, try to | reach down into your mind to a place of real safety. You will |
| W1:47.8 | things that churn and bubble on the surface of your mind, and | reach down and below them to the Kingdom of Heaven. There is a place |
| W1:49.4 | sights of this insane world. You do not live there. We are trying to | reach your real home. We are trying to reach the place where you are |
| W1:49.4 | live there. We are trying to reach your real home. We are trying to | reach the place where you are truly welcome. We are trying to reach |
| W1:49.4 | to reach the place where you are truly welcome. We are trying to | reach God. |
| W1:60.2 | It will bring me near enough to Heaven that the Love of God can | reach down to me and raise me to my home. |
| W1:67.2 | We will make every effort today to | reach this truth about you and to realize fully, if only for a |
| W1:67.5 | thoughts drop away for a brief preparatory interval, and then try to | reach past all your images and preconceptions about yourself to the |
| W1:69.2 | Today let us make another real attempt to | reach the light in you. Before we undertake this in our more extended |
| W1:69.3 | with the full realization of all this and real determination to | reach what is dearer to us than all else. Salvation is our only need. |
| W1:69.6 | down in perfect stillness, remembering only how much you want to | reach the light in you today—now. Determine to go past the clouds. |
| W1:69.6 | reach the light in you today—now. Determine to go past the clouds. | Reach out and touch them in your mind; brush them aside with your |
| W1:70.12 | Now we will try again to | reach the light in you, which is where your salvation is. You cannot |
| W1:70.12 | Remember that you will have to go through the clouds before you can | reach the light. But remember also that you have never found anything |
| W1:72.2 | the mind with a body, keeping it separate and alone and unable to | reach other minds except through the body which was made to imprison |
| W1:73.4 | Today we will try once more to | reach the world that is in accordance with your will. The light is in |
| W1:85.5 | is not found outside and then brought in. But from within me it will | reach beyond, and everything I see will but reflect the light that |
| W1:91.4 | felt the strength in you which makes all miracles within your easy | reach, you will not doubt. The miracles your sense of weakness hides |
| W1:94.5 | Now try to | reach the Son of God in you. This is the Self that never sinned nor |
| W1:94.6 | Nothing is required of you to | reach this goal except to lay all idols and self-images aside, go |
| W1:95.6 | to include frequent reminders of your goal and regular attempts to | reach it. Regularity in terms of time is not the ideal requirement |
| W1:95.12 | else is true. Today we will affirm this truth again and try to | reach the place in you in which there is no doubt that only this is |
| W1:96.2 | accepted this, you will attempt endless lists of goals you cannot | reach; a senseless series of expenditures of time and effort, |
| W1:98.2 | to fulfill and have been given everything we need with which to | reach the goal. Not one mistake stands in our way, for we have been |
| W1:100.10 | He will be there. And you can | reach Him now. What could you rather look upon in place of Him Who |
| W1:102.3 | devote our longer practice periods to exercises planned to help you | reach the happiness God's Will has placed in you. Here is your home, |
| W1:106.3 | you in welcome and in love. Hear only Him today, and do not wait to | reach Him longer. Hear one Voice today. |
| W1:106.5 | through you. He needs your voice to speak to them, for who could | reach God's Son except his Father calling through your Self? |
| W1:131.2 | Goals which are meaningless are not attained. There is no way to | reach them, for the means by which you strive for them are |
| W1:131.5 | find the goal you really want. No one can fail to want this goal and | reach it in the end. God's Son cannot seek vainly, though he try to |
| W1:131.6 | been taken from you. It will go because you do not want it. You will | reach the goal you really want as certainly as God created you in |
| W1:131.9 | because He wills to be, and what He wills is present now beyond the | reach of time. |
| W1:131.11 | No one can fail who asks to | reach the truth, and it is truth we ask to reach today. We will |
| W1:131.11 | one can fail who asks to reach the truth, and it is truth we ask to | reach today. We will devote ten minutes to this goal three times |
| W1:131.15 | you try to open it, remind yourself no one can fail who asks to | reach the truth, and it is this request you make today. Nothing but |
| W1:131.19 | want. My single purpose offers it to me. No one can fail who asks to | reach the truth. |
| W1:133.14 | to find everything and claim it as their own. We will attempt to | reach this state today, with self-deception laid aside and with an |
| W1:138.5 | Ours are teaching goals to be attained through learning how to | reach them, what they are, and what they offer you. Decisions are the |
| W1:140.9 | by what appears to us as sick. We go beyond appearances today and | reach the source of healing from which nothing is exempt. We will |
| W1:146.1 | [131] No one can fail who asks to | reach the truth. |
| W1:153.21 | Be not afraid nor timid. There can be no doubt that you will | reach your final goal. The ministers of God can never fail because |
| W1:155.6 | Illusion still appears to cling to you that you may | reach them. Yet it has stepped back, and it is not illusion that they |
| W1:161.8 | spawn. It shrieks in wrath and claws the air in frantic hope it can | reach to its maker and devour him. |
| W1:162.1 | would save the world. From time to time we will repeat it, as we | reach another stage in learning. It will mean far more to you as you |
| W1:183.8 | call on Him with names of idols cherished by the world. They cannot | reach Him thus. He cannot hear requests that He be not Himself or |
| W1:185.10 | this when you make this request with deep sincerity. For thus you | reach to what they really want and join your own intent with what |
| W1:189.6 | Today we pass illusions as we seek to | reach to what is true in us and feel Its all-embracing tenderness, |
| W1:189.8 | point the road to God by which He should appear to you. The way to | reach Him is merely to let Him be. For in that way is your reality |
| W1:190.5 | or injure you in any way. There is no cause beyond yourself that can | reach down and bring oppression. No one but yourself affects you. |
| W1:196.12 | There is no thought of God that does not go with you to help you | reach that instant and to go beyond it quickly, surely, and forever. |

| W2:I.1 | we leave the world of pain and go to enter peace. Now we begin to | reach the goal this course has set and find the end toward which our |
| W2:WIS.1 | need have they of sights or sounds or touch? What would they hear or | reach to grasp? What would they sense at all? To sense is not to |
| W2:257.2 | Yours today. And thus our purpose must be Yours as well if we would | reach the peace You will for us. |
| W2:WIB.4 | for the pursuit of hell. The Son of God extends his hand to | reach his brother and to help him walk along the road with him. Now |
| W2:WIRW.2 | And the sights are gentle. Only happy sights and sounds can | reach the mind that has forgiven itself. |
| W2:296.2 | our learning goal becomes an unconflicted one and possible of easy | reach and quick accomplishment. How gladly does the Holy Spirit come |
| W2:WISC.5 | in its holy light. Behold, the Son of God is one in us, and we can | reach our Father's Love through him. |
| W2:308.1 | conceived of time in such a way that I defeat my aim. If I elect to | reach past time to timelessness, I must change my perception of what |
| W2:336.1 | and then gives way entirely to what remains forever past its highest | reach. For sights and sounds at best can serve but to recall the |
| W2:354.1 | My oneness with the Christ establishes me as Your Son, beyond the | reach of time and wholly free of every law but Yours. I have no self |
| W2:355.1 | Son in exile. I am sure my treasure waits for me, and I need but | reach out my hand to find it. Even now my fingers touch it. It is |
| W2:360.1 | Great Rays remain forever still and undisturbed within me. I would | reach to them in silence and in certainty, for nowhere else can |
| W2:E.5 | you not and that each choice you make brings Heaven nearer to your | reach. And so we walk with Him from this time on and turn to Him for |

| Tx:2.90 | it. People prefer to believe that their thoughts cannot exert | real control, because they are literally afraid of them. Many |
| Tx:2.90 | by persuading him that he can think whatever he wants without any | real effect at all. |
| Tx:2.91 | There is a | real dilemma here which only the truly right-minded can escape. Death |
| Tx:2.94 | working entails a full realization of the power of thought and | real avoidance of miscreation. Otherwise, a miracle will be necessary |
| Tx:2.97 | he is in pain. The cause and effect principle here is temporarily a | real expediter. Actually, “Cause” is a term properly belonging to |
| Tx:2.97 | into his own miscreations. The fundamental opponents in the | real basic conflict are creation and miscreation. All fear is |
| Tx:2.105 | a matter of will. It also follows that whatever he creates is | real in his own sight but not necessarily in the sight of God. This |
| Tx:2.105 | the sight of God. This basic distinction leads us directly into the | real meaning of the Last Judgment. |
| Tx:3.7 | of the truth. Only right-mindedness can create in a way that has any | real effect. Pragmatically, what has no real effect has no real |
| Tx:3.7 | create in a way that has any real effect. Pragmatically, what has no | real effect has no real existence. Its effect, then, is emptiness. |
| Tx:3.7 | has any real effect. Pragmatically, what has no real effect has no | real existence. Its effect, then, is emptiness. Being without |
| Tx:3.12 | religions, and this is neither by chance nor by coincidence. Yet the | real Christian would have to pause and ask, “How could this be?” Is |
| Tx:3.15 | is Mine sayeth the Lord,” is a strictly karmic viewpoint. It is a | real misperception of truth by which man assigns his own “evil” past |
| Tx:3.26 | lasting solace. Innocence is not a partial attribute. It is not a | real defense until it is total. When it is partial, it is |
| Tx:3.28 | what God creates, or what man creates with the same will, has any | real existence. This, then, is all the innocent can see. They do not |
| Tx:3.37 | perception and time and will ultimately replace them. That is the | real meaning of the Biblical description of God as “Alpha and Omega, |
| Tx:3.38 | functions.] The abilities man now possesses are only shadows of his | real strengths. All of his functions are equivocal and open to |
| Tx:3.48 | with that of my Creator, I naturally remembered the Soul and its own | real purpose. |
| Tx:3.50 | “chosen ones” are merely those who choose right sooner. This is the | real meaning of the celestial speed-up. Strong wills can do this now, |
| Tx:3.51 | that the abilities which man possesses are only shadows of his | real strengths and that the intrusion of the ability to perceive, |
| Tx:3.56 | is a miracle. Miraculous creation was his Source and also his | real function. |
| Tx:3.71 | is not sufficient. Yet no one believes that what is wished is as | real as what is willed. Instead of, “Seek ye first the Kingdom of |
| Tx:3.73 | “sell” him their Souls in return for gifts they recognize are of no | real worth. |
| Tx:3.74 | symbolic. It is an order of reality or a system of thought that is | real enough in time, though not in eternity. All beliefs are real to |
| Tx:3.74 | that is real enough in time, though not in eternity. All beliefs are | real to the believer. |
| Tx:3.78 | The mind can make the belief in separation very | real and very fearful, and this belief is the “devil.” It is |
| Tx:4.10 | and you have believed in a world which rests upon it. This is very | real to you. You cannot undo this by doing nothing and not changing. |
| Tx:4.11 | thinking that they will one day no longer need him. This is the one | real goal of the parent, teacher, and therapist. This goal will not |
| Tx:4.15 | in it. You who made it cannot trust it because you know it is not | real. The only sane solution is not to try to change reality, which |
| Tx:4.15 | of your Soul. When you are afraid, be still and know that God is | real and you are His beloved Son in whom He is well pleased. Do not |
| Tx:4.27 | as part of themselves. No one disowns something he regards as a very | real part of himself. Man reacts to his ego much as God does to His |
| Tx:4.27 | In fact it duplicates in many ways how he will one day react to his | real creations, which are as timeless as he is. The question is not |
| Tx:4.29 | not prepared, and in this sense you are babies. You have no sense of | real self-preservation and are very likely to decide that you need |
| Tx:4.30 | Only those who have a | real and lasting sense of abundance can be truly charitable. This is |
| Tx:4.31 | The “reality principle” of the ego is not | real at all. The ego is forced to perceive the “reality” of other |
| Tx:4.31 | reality of itself. In fact, its whole perception of other egos as | real is only an attempt to convince itself that it is real. “Self |
| Tx:4.31 | other egos as real is only an attempt to convince itself that it is | real. “Self esteem” in ego terms means nothing more than that the ego |
| Tx:4.49 | ego has no allegiance to its own maker. You cannot conceive of the | real relationship which exists between God and His Souls because of |
| Tx:4.67 | Your egos are trying to convince you that they are | real and I am not because, if I am real, I am no more real than you |
| Tx:4.67 | to convince you that they are real and I am not because, if I am | real, I am no more real than you are. That knowledge, and I assure |
| Tx:4.67 | that they are real and I am not because, if I am real, I am no more | real than you are. That knowledge, and I assure you that it is |
| Tx:4.72 | so there is no point in turning to it for protection. The ego has no | real answer to this because there is none, but it does have a typical |
| Tx:4.72 | protection?” Even the insane ask it unconsciously, but it requires | real sanity to ask it consciously. |
| Tx:4.75 | of the eternal, just as it does with all issues that touch on the | real question in any way. By compromising in connection with all |
| Tx:4.75 | in connection with all tangential questions, it hopes to hide the | real question and keep it out of mind. The ego's characteristic |
| Tx:4.77 | also favorite ego devices for impeding the strong-willed from making | real learning progress. The problems of squaring the circle and |
| Tx:4.79 | to realize that the ego is capable of making and accepting as | real some very distorted associations. The confusion of sex with |
| Tx:4.82 | this the ego understands well. “A little,” then, is perceived as the | real threat. |
| Tx:4.83 | essential thing to remember is that the ego does not recognize the | real source of its perceived threat, and if you associate yourself |
| Tx:4.90 | your gratitude, you can come to know each other, and one moment of | real recognition makes all men your brothers because they are all of |
| Tx:4.98 | state in which the mind is in communication with everything that is | real, including the Soul. To whatever extent you permit this state to |
| Tx:4.98 | only by your recognizing all reality in the glorious context of its | real relationship to you. This is your reality. Do not desecrate it |
| Tx:4.98 | is your reality. Do not desecrate it or recoil from it. It is your | real home, your real temple, and your real Self. |
| Tx:4.98 | Do not desecrate it or recoil from it. It is your real home, your | real temple, and your real Self. |
| Tx:4.98 | or recoil from it. It is your real home, your real temple, and your | real Self. |
| Tx:4.99 | but who want to share it to increase their joy. Nothing that is | real can be increased except by sharing. That is why God Himself |
| Tx:4.99 | creation means. “How,” “what,” and “to whom” are irrelevant because | real creation gives everything, since it can create only like itself. |
| Tx:4.103 | of exerting the ego's domination over other egos, rather than as a | real experiment in the cooperation of minds. Rehabilitation as a |
| Tx:5.16 | There is a point at which sufficient quantitative changes produce | real qualitative differences. The next point requires real |
| Tx:5.16 | produce real qualitative differences. The next point requires | real understanding, because it is the point at which the shift |
| Tx:5.44 | because of what you saw in them but less than knowledge of your | real relationships to them, because you did not accept them as part |
| Tx:5.47 | Its unshared existence does not die; it was merely never born. | Real birth is not a beginning; it is a continuing. Everything that |
| Tx:5.48 | As a therapist, you yourself tell your patients that the | real difference between neurotic and “healthy” guilt feelings is that |
| Tx:5.48 | and for asking pardon without change. The ego never calls for | real Atonement and cannot tolerate forgiveness, which is change. |
| Tx:5.49 | really advocating, then, was adopting a policy of sharing without a | real foundation. I have come to give you the foundation, so your own |
| Tx:5.63 | for you. It is, however, only your acceptance of it that makes it | real. If you enthrone the ego in it, the fact that you have accepted |
| Tx:5.67 | God you are not really thinking at all. Delusional ideas are not | real thoughts, although you can believe in them. But you are wrong. |
| Tx:5.85 | stands under perception, because you have denied it as the | real foundation of thought. This is the basis for all delusional |
| Tx:5.86 | with a point in time. This clearly could have been a means toward | real release from the time belief, had Freud pursued it with an open |
| Tx:5.87 | that the point in development at which the mind is fixated is more | real to itself than the external reality with which it disagrees. |
| Tx:6.6 | means anger, anger fosters assault, and assault promotes fear. The | real meaning of the crucifixion lies in the apparent intensity of the |
| Tx:6.6 | fact unless it is fully understood as only that, I cannot serve as a | real model for learning. |
| Tx:6.7 | itself is impossible, then anything that is destructible cannot be | real. Therefore, its destruction does not justify anger. To the |
| Tx:6.23 | as interpersonal then, just as it is now, and it is still just as | real. But because it is just as real now, its lesson, too, has equal |
| Tx:6.23 | it is now, and it is still just as real. But because it is just as | real now, its lesson, too, has equal reality when it is learned.] I |
| Tx:6.42 | The only | real safety lies in projecting only the Holy Spirit because, as you |
| Tx:6.49 | all if you consider what it really involves. The ego, which is not | real, attempts to persuade the mind, which is real, that the mind is |
| Tx:6.49 | The ego, which is not real, attempts to persuade the mind, which is | real, that the mind is its own learning device and that the learning |
| Tx:6.49 | mind is its own learning device and that the learning device is more | real than it is. No one in his right mind could possibly believe |
| Tx:6.50 | He created as part of Him. Nothing else exists, and only this is | real. You have chosen a sleep in which you have had bad dreams, but |
| Tx:6.50 | a sleep in which you have had bad dreams, but the sleep is not | real, and God calls you to awake. There will be nothing left of your |
| Tx:6.58 | them that the nightmares which frightened them so badly were not | real because children believe in magic. You merely reassure them that |
| Tx:6.63 | miracles. This is because He always tells you that only the mind is | real since only the mind can be shared. The body is separate and |
| Tx:6.64 | behalf of the Kingdom to let this crucial concept slip away. It is a | real foundation stone of the thought system I teach and want you to |
| Tx:6.65 | can be communicated and therefore can be shared. Yet this is not so | real as it sounds. Those who communicate fear are promoting attack, |
| Tx:6.73 | in others, making him suspicious of their motivation. This is the | real reason why in many respects the first lesson is the hardest to |
| Tx:6.76 | sanity and insanity. Only one is true, and therefore only one is | real. The ego tries to persuade you that it is up to you to decide |
| Tx:6.88 | the lessons implied in the others and goes beyond them towards | real integration. |
| Tx:6.93 | which needs protection since your being cannot be assailed. Yet a | real sense of being cannot be yours while you are doubtful of what |
| Tx:7.25 | a perception makes it meaningless by eliminating or overlooking its | real and only meaning. |
| Tx:7.31 | them, because that would be magic and therefore would not be | real healing. You do, however, recognize the Spirit that is already |
| Tx:7.32 | are perfectly dependable and therefore universal in application. The | real aim of science is neither prediction nor control but only |
| Tx:7.37 | To oppose the pull or the Will of God is not an ability but a | real delusion. The ego believes that it has this ability and can |
| Tx:7.46 | is of God can be counted on, because everything of God is wholly | real. Healing can be counted on, because it is inspired by His Voice |
| Tx:7.60 | brings love. Nothing else can be understood, because nothing else is | real, and therefore nothing else has meaning. |
| Tx:7.68 | willing without meaning. Yet because God's Will is unchangeable, no | real conflict of will is possible. This is the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:7.81 | correction enables you to perceive any part of creation as wholly | real, wholly perfect, and wholly desirable. Wanting this only, you |
| Tx:7.84 | of God, utilizes the power of the mind only to defeat the mind's | real purpose. It projects conflict from your mind to other minds in |
| Tx:8.3 | voice is an hallucination. You cannot expect it to say, “I am not | real.” Hallucinations are inaccurate perceptions of reality. Yet you |
| Tx:8.7 | senselessness of such a curriculum must be fully recognized before a | real change in direction becomes possible. You cannot learn |
| Tx:8.45 | to you. Can the creations of God Himself take joy in what is not | real? And what is real except the creations of God and those which |
| Tx:8.45 | creations of God Himself take joy in what is not real? And what is | real except the creations of God and those which are created like |
| Tx:8.64 | aids with hope of understanding either the aids or the learning's | real purpose. Learning must lead beyond the body to the |
| Tx:8.71 | as it always does. Regarding the body as an end, the ego has no | real use for it because it is not an end. You must have noticed an |
| Tx:8.72 | is synonymous with the belief in attack as an end. The ego has a | real investment in sickness. If you are sick, how can you object to |
| Tx:8.80 | knows what the answer to everything is. The ego does not know what a | real question is, although it asks an endless number. Yet you can |
| Tx:8.84 | than another, He would be teaching that one error can be more | real than another. His function is to distinguish only between the |
| Tx:8.93 | the Will of God there. His perception of this will can make it | real to you because He is in your mind and therefore He is your |
| Tx:8.99 | To deny what is can only seem to be fearful. Fear cannot be | real without a cause, and God is the only Cause. God is Love, and you |
| Tx:8.100 | can ask for everything of the Holy Spirit because your requests are | real, being of your will. Would the Holy Spirit deny the Will of God? |
| Tx:8.103 | decision. You are devoting your mind to what you do not want. How | real can this devotion be? If you do not want it, it was never |
| Tx:8.104 | is everything, and therefore you have everything because you are | real. You cannot make the unreal, because the absence of reality is |
| Tx:8.105 | be. This is the simple acceptance of reality, because only this is | real. You cannot distort reality and know what it is. And if you do |
| Tx:9.6 | To perceive errors in anyone and to react to them as if they were | real is to make them real to you. You will not escape paying the |
| Tx:9.6 | in anyone and to react to them as if they were real is to make them | real to you. You will not escape paying the price for this, not |
| Tx:9.7 | are not of him any more than yours are of you. Accept his errors as | real, and you have attacked yourself. If you would find your way and |
| Tx:9.8 | how to look on everything without it. Condemnation will then not be | real to you, and all your errors will be forgiven. |
| Tx:9.12 | and then overlook it. Yet how can you overlook what you have made | real? By seeing it clearly, you have made it real and cannot overlook |
| Tx:9.12 | what you have made real? By seeing it clearly, you have made it | real and cannot overlook it. |
| Tx:9.13 | is learned of me does not use fear to undo fear. Nor does it make | real the unreal and then destroy it. |
| Tx:9.21 | is why they are unreal. How, then, can “uncovering” them make them | real? Every healer who searches fantasies for truth must be unhealed, |
| Tx:9.21 | nightmares into awareness, but only to teach that they are not | real and that anything they contain is meaningless. The unhealed |
| Tx:9.23 | in the nightmare and then uses them to prove that the nightmare is | real. Having made it real, he then attempts to dispel its effects by |
| Tx:9.23 | then uses them to prove that the nightmare is real. Having made it | real, he then attempts to dispel its effects by depreciating the |
| Tx:9.24 | accounts, no one can explain what happens in psychotherapy. Nothing | real does. Nothing real has happened to the unhealed healer, and he |
| Tx:9.24 | explain what happens in psychotherapy. Nothing real does. Nothing | real has happened to the unhealed healer, and he learns from his own |
| Tx:9.25 | He believes that it is up to him to teach the patient what is | real, but he does not know it himself. What, then, should happen? |
| Tx:9.33 | call upon in yourself. And as you call upon it in them, it becomes | real to you. God has but one Son, knowing them all as one. Only God |
| Tx:9.44 | We said before that the ego does not know what a | real question is. Lack of knowledge of any kind is always associated |
| Tx:9.49 | is always a cover for despair. It is without hope because it is not | real. It is an attempt to counteract your littleness, based on the |
| Tx:9.49 | your littleness, based on the belief that the littleness is | real. Without this belief, grandiosity is meaningless, and you could |
| Tx:9.51 | in it. Grandeur is totally without illusions, and because it is | real, it is compellingly convincing. Yet the conviction of reality |
| Tx:9.51 | tell you that you are insane and argue that grandeur cannot be a | real part of you because of the littleness in which it believes. |
| Tx:9.56 | be arrogant when God Himself witnesses to it? And what can be | real that has no witnesses? What good can come of it? And if no good |
| Tx:9.60 | exist? Nothing beyond Him can happen, because nothing except Him is | real. Your creations add to Him as you do, but nothing is added that |
| Tx:9.60 | can upset you except the ephemeral, and how can the ephemeral be | real if you are God's only creation, and He created you eternal? Your |
| Tx:9.65 | from your own experience that what you see in dreams you think is | real as long as you are asleep. Yet the instant you waken, you know |
| Tx:9.74 | makes you do can be very destructive. Yet the destruction is no more | real than the image, although those who make idols do worship them. |
| Tx:9.83 | it is due, and peace will be yours. It is your inheritance from your | real Father. You cannot make your father, and the father you made did |
| Tx:9.84 | God's replacement. He is the belief that you can choose which god is | real. Although it is perfectly clear that this has nothing to do with |
| Tx:9.85 | be reconciled with God's Will. If you attack him, you will make him | real to you. But if you refuse to worship him in whatever form he may |
| Tx:9.105 | they are given in His Name. That is why your creations are as | real as His. Yet the real Fatherhood must be acknowledged if the real |
| Tx:9.105 | in His Name. That is why your creations are as real as His. Yet the | real Fatherhood must be acknowledged if the real Son is to be known. |
| Tx:9.105 | as real as His. Yet the real Fatherhood must be acknowledged if the | real Son is to be known. You believe that the sick things which you |
| Tx:9.105 | known. You believe that the sick things which you have made are your | real creations, because you believe that the sick images you perceive |
| Tx:9.107 | is determined by what you value. Time and eternity cannot both be | real, because they contradict each other. If you will accept only |
| Tx:9.107 | contradict each other. If you will accept only what is timeless as | real, you will begin to understand eternity and make it yours. |
| Tx:10.22 | be your guest and how long he shall remain with you. Yet this is not | real freedom, for it still depends on how you see it. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:10.22 | invitation, and the ego is nothing whether you invite it in or not. | Real freedom depends on welcoming reality, and of your guests, only |
| Tx:10.22 | freedom depends on welcoming reality, and of your guests, only He is | real. Know, then, who abides with you merely by recognizing what is |
| Tx:10.24 | and amid all his brothers, he is friendless. Would God let this be | real if He did not will to be alone Himself? And if your will is His, |
| Tx:10.27 | leads you. When you wander, you but undertake a journey which is not | real. The dark companions, the dark way, are all illusions. Turn |
| Tx:10.39 | we must look first at this to look beyond it since you have made it | real. We will undo this error quietly together and then look beyond |
| Tx:10.40 | source of fear, but you have surely learned by now that fear is not | real. We have accepted the fact already that its effects can be |
| Tx:10.40 | is recognized by its extension, what extends to nothing cannot be | real. |
| Tx:10.44 | once said that to will contrary to God is wishful thinking and not | real willing. His Will is one because the extension of His Will |
| Tx:10.44 | one because the extension of His Will cannot be unlike itself. The | real conflict you experience, then, is between the ego's idle wishes |
| Tx:10.44 | idle wishes and the Will of God, which you share. Can this be a | real conflict? |
| Tx:10.54 | Spirit's. The ego focuses on error and overlooks truth. It makes | real every mistake it perceives, and with characteristically circular |
| Tx:10.54 | Holding error clearly in mind and protecting what it has made | real, the ego proceeds to the next step in its thought system—that |
| Tx:10.54 | ego proceeds to the next step in its thought system—that error is | real, and truth is error. |
| Tx:10.70 | being loving, they are like the Father and therefore cannot die. The | real world can actually be perceived. All that is necessary is a |
| Tx:10.71 | that you could not accept, but it always adds something that is not | real to the real, thus confusing illusion and reality. For |
| Tx:10.71 | not accept, but it always adds something that is not real to the | real, thus confusing illusion and reality. For perceptions cannot be |
| Tx:10.71 | in what you have made that is true is like Him. Only this is the | real world, and perceiving only this will lead you to the real Heaven |
| Tx:10.71 | is the real world, and perceiving only this will lead you to the | real Heaven because it will make you capable of understanding it. |
| Tx:10.73 | To believe that you can perceive the | real world is to believe that you can know yourself. You can know God |
| Tx:10.73 | yourself. You can know God because it is His Will to be known. The | real world is all that the Holy Spirit has saved for you out of what |
| Tx:10.74 | is necessary. But do you believe it? When you have perceived the | real world, you will recognize that you did not believe it. Yet the |
| Tx:10.74 | did not believe it. Yet the swiftness with which your new and only | real perception will be translated into knowledge will leave you only |
| Tx:10.75 | the false and the true. For as Heaven and earth become one, even the | real world will vanish from your sight. The end of the world is not |
| Tx:10.82 | get by taking. And by that perception, you have lost sight of the | real world. You are afraid of the world as you see it, but the real |
| Tx:10.82 | the real world. You are afraid of the world as you see it, but the | real world is still yours for the asking. Do not deny it to yourself, |
| Tx:10.85 | In the | real world there is no sickness, for there is no separation and no |
| Tx:10.86 | and you will not accept your healing without his. For you share the | real world as you share Heaven, and his healing is yours. To love |
| Tx:10.88 | and they are terrified. Yet if they ask someone they trust for the | real meaning of what they perceive and are willing to let their |
| Tx:10.90 | When you perceive yourself without deceit, you will accept the | real world in place of the false one you have made. And then your |
| Tx:11.1 | You have been told not to make error | real, and the way to do this is very simple. If you want to believe |
| Tx:11.1 | simple. If you want to believe in error, you would have to make it | real because it is not true. But truth is real in its own right, and |
| Tx:11.1 | you would have to make it real because it is not true. But truth is | real in its own right, and to believe in truth, you do not have to do |
| Tx:11.1 | as if he had actually done so, because you have made his error | real to you. To interpret error is to give it power, and having done |
| Tx:11.11 | is false, for it was made out of denial, and denial depends on the | real belief in what is denied for its own existence. |
| Tx:11.22 | is what you will really see. You cannot lay aside the obstacle to | real vision without looking upon it, for to lay aside means to judge |
| Tx:11.25 | are making the same mistake that he is and are making his error | real to both of you. Insistence means investment, and what you invest |
| Tx:11.30 | If only the loving thoughts of God's Son are the world's reality, the | real world must be in his mind. His insane thoughts, too, must be in |
| Tx:11.32 | world that He gave it to His only-begotten Son. God does love the | real world, and those who perceive its reality cannot see the world |
| Tx:11.32 | its reality cannot see the world of death. For death is not of the | real world, in which everything is eternal. God gave you the real |
| Tx:11.32 | of the real world, in which everything is eternal. God gave you the | real world in exchange for the one you made out of your split mind, |
| Tx:11.34 | Yet this world is only in the mind of its maker along with his | real salvation. Do not believe it is outside of yourself, for only by |
| Tx:11.35 | as you have projected it, allowing the Holy Spirit to project the | real world to you from the altar of God. |
| Tx:11.46 | love is your strength, for yours is divided and therefore not | real. You could not trust your own love when you have attacked it. |
| Tx:11.49 | curriculum goal is obvious. Every legitimate teaching aid, every | real instruction, and every sensible guide to learning will be |
| Tx:11.55 | come from the projection of loving thoughts outward. Make the world | real unto yourself, for the real world is the gift of the Holy |
| Tx:11.55 | loving thoughts outward. Make the world real unto yourself, for the | real world is the gift of the Holy Spirit, and so it belongs to you. |
| Tx:11.57 | and He longs to share His vision with you. He will show you the | real world because God gave you Heaven. Through Him your Father calls |
| Tx:11.57 | remember. The awakening of His Son begins with his investment in the | real world, and by this he will learn to reinvest in himself. For |
| Tx:11.57 | is one with the Father and the Son, and the Holy Spirit blesses the | real world in Their Name. |
| Tx:11.58 | When you have seen this | real world, as you will surely do, you will remember us. Yet you must |
| Tx:11.58 | refuse to pay it. Only then will you decide to awaken. And then the | real world will spring to your sight, for Christ has never slept. He |
| Tx:11.58 | be seen, for He has never lost sight of you. He looks quietly on the | real world, which He would share with you because He knows of the |
| Tx:11.60 | world has no purpose as it blends into the purpose of God. For the | real world has slipped quietly into Heaven, where everything eternal |
| Tx:11.61 | not apply, and by applying them to all situations, you will gain the | real world. For in this holy perception, you will be made whole, and |
| Tx:11.64 | witnesses and speak for His Presence. What you cannot see becomes | real to you only through the witnesses who speak for it. For you can |
| Tx:11.64 | can be aware of what you cannot see, and it can become compellingly | real to you as its presence becomes manifest through you. Do the Holy |
| Tx:11.72 | That is because you do not yet want only that. Yet as I become more | real to you, you will learn that you do want only that. And you will |
| Tx:11.72 | as God created it together. Through the eyes of Christ, only the | real world exists and can be seen. As you decide, so will you see. |
| Tx:11.77 | know neither the Father nor the Son because of them. You attack the | real world every day and every hour and every minute, and yet you are |
| Tx:11.81 | it is not so. Son of God, be not content with nothing! What is not | real cannot be seen and has no value. God could not offer His Son |
| Tx:11.82 | you have sought nothing and found nothing. By making nothing | real to you, you have seen it. But it is not there. And Christ is |
| Tx:11.84 | The | real world was given you by God in loving exchange for the world you |
| Tx:11.87 | If this were the | real world, God would be cruel. For no father could subject his |
| Tx:11.98 | You cannot dispel guilt by making it | real and then atoning for it. This is the ego's plan, which it offers |
| Tx:11.99 | then, there is no escape from guilt. For attack makes guilt | real, and if it is real, there is no way to overcome it. The Holy |
| Tx:11.99 | is no escape from guilt. For attack makes guilt real, and if it is | real, there is no way to overcome it. The Holy Spirit dispels it |
| Tx:12.6 | is the symbol of the ego. When it was confronted with the | real guiltlessness of God's Son, it did attempt to kill him, and the |
| Tx:12.11 | you fear even more. You are not afraid of crucifixion. Your | real terror is of redemption. Under the ego's dark foundation is the |
| Tx:12.13 | associate love with weakness and hatred with strength, and your own | real power seems to you as your real weakness. For you could not |
| Tx:12.13 | hatred with strength, and your own real power seems to you as your | real weakness. For you could not control your joyous response to the |
| Tx:12.16 | all the tricks and games you offer it can heal it, for here is the | real crucifixion of God's Son. |
| Tx:12.18 | Beneath all your grandiosity, which you hold so dear, is your | real call for help. For you call for love to your Father as your |
| Tx:12.18 | can satisfy him or save him from what he is. Only his love is | real, and he will be content only with his reality. |
| Tx:12.20 | Father. He feared what he had made, but still more did he fear his | real Father, having attacked his own glorious equality with Him. |
| Tx:12.24 | Heaven. For your definition of Heaven is hell and oblivion, and the | real Heaven is the greatest threat you think you could experience. |
| Tx:12.27 | messages from them out of your own past because, by making it | real in the present, you are forbidding yourself to let it go. You |
| Tx:12.28 | from the past are precisely what you must escape. For they are not | real and have no hold over you unless you bring them with you. They |
| Tx:12.34 | private worlds do differ. Yet the figures that he sees were never | real, for they are made up only of his reactions to his brothers and |
| Tx:12.42 | fear, as His from love. And He sees for you as your witness to the | real world. He is the Holy Spirit's manifestation, looking always on |
| Tx:12.42 | world. He is the Holy Spirit's manifestation, looking always on the | real world and calling forth its witnesses and drawing them unto you. |
| Tx:12.50 | forever true. All healing lies within it because its continuity is | real. It extends to all aspects of consciousness at the same time and |
| Tx:12.57 | were not alone. Even in sleep has Christ protected you, ensuring the | real world for you when you wake. In your name He has given for you |
| Tx:12.59 | The | real world is not like this. It has no buildings, and there are no |
| Tx:12.60 | denied the other. Both are not true, yet either one will seem as | real to you as the amount to which you hold it dear. And yet their |
| Tx:12.60 | you hold it dear. And yet their power is not the same because their | real attraction to you is unequal. |
| Tx:12.62 | Yet the | real world has the power to touch you even here because you love it. |
| Tx:12.66 | His Son forever, and His Son returns his Father's love forever. The | real world is the way that leads you to remembrance of this one thing |
| Tx:12.67 | you offer knowledge. Love waits on welcome, not on time, and the | real world is but your welcome of what always was. Therefore, the |
| Tx:12.75 | will teach you to awaken unto us and to yourself. This is the only | real need to be fulfilled in time. Salvation from the world lies only |
| Tx:13.2 | The very | real difference between perception and knowledge becomes quite |
| Tx:13.20 | where it is not. The doubtful service of displacement is to hide the | real source of your guilt and keep from your awareness the full |
| Tx:13.20 | provided that they are not the deeper source to which they bear no | real relationship at all. |
| Tx:13.21 | Insane ideas have no | real relationships, for that is why they are insane. No real |
| Tx:13.21 | have no real relationships, for that is why they are insane. No | real relationship can rest on guilt or even hold one spot of it to |
| Tx:13.21 | you have made for this strange purpose! And you forgot that | real relationships are holy and cannot be used by you at all. They |
| Tx:13.21 | it in that strange relationship. It is not shared, and so it is not | real. |
| Tx:13.22 | satisfaction and peace with him, because your union with him is not | real. You will see guilt in that relationship because you put it |
| Tx:13.23 | let them stand between you and your brothers, with whom you find no | real relationships at all. Can you expect to use your brothers as a |
| Tx:13.25 | reason. The Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. If guilt were | real, Atonement would not be. The purpose of Atonement is to dispel |
| Tx:13.25 | of Atonement is to dispel illusions, not to establish them as | real and then forgive them. |
| Tx:13.30 | You cannot enter into | real relationships with any of God's Sons unless you love them all |
| Tx:13.35 | by a cruel war unless he believes that both opponents in the war are | real. Believing this, he must escape, for such a war would surely end |
| Tx:13.35 | him. Yet if he could but realize the war is between forces that are | real and unreal powers, he could look upon himself and see his |
| Tx:13.58 | The truth is true. Nothing else matters, nothing else is | real, and everything beside it is not there. Let Me make the one |
| Tx:13.88 | restore what always was to your unforgiving mind. Atonement becomes | real and visible to them that use it. On earth this is your only |
| Tx:14.24 | reconciled by union, as you are. In union, everything that is not | real must disappear, for truth is union. As darkness disappears in |
| Tx:14.25 | you are, being within you. Yet it can be recognized or unrecognized, | real or false to you. If you hide it, it becomes unreal to you |
| Tx:14.39 | with time or mood or chance. Its changelessness is what makes it | real. This cannot be undone. Undoing is for unreality. And this |
| Tx:15.51 | much you seek for its reality, you cannot find it because it is not | real. |
| Tx:15.67 | of guilt must be recognized for what it is. For having been made | real to you, it is essential to look at it clearly, and by |
| Tx:15.67 | as this belongs not in your holy mind. The host of God can have no | real investment here. |
| Tx:15.77 | And He will do so, for the power of God in Him and you is joined in | real relationship, so holy and so strong that it can overcome even |
| Tx:15.86 | completely. Yet it remains the only means by which you can establish | real relationships. |
| Tx:15.87 | Real relationships have no limits, having been established by God. In | |
| Tx:15.94 | give separately. When you are willing to accept our relationship as | real, guilt will hold no attraction for you. For in our union, you |
| Tx:15.99 | savage and so fearful that you cannot accept it where it is. But the | real price of not accepting this has been so great that you have |
| Tx:16.3 | there that you would keep. Do not use empathy to make the past | real and so perpetuate it. Step gently aside and let the healing be |
| Tx:16.7 | Only the Holy Spirit recognizes foolish needs as well as | real ones. And He will teach you how to meet both without losing |
| Tx:16.13 | as long as you believe that you must understand it or else it is not | real. |
| Tx:16.16 | the truth of what you do not want. Yet your relationship with Him is | real and has been demonstrated. Regard this not with fear but with |
| Tx:16.18 | resolve together to accept the joyful tidings that disaster is not | real and that reality is not disaster. |
| Tx:16.24 | You have been very careful to avoid the obvious and not to see the | real cause and effect relationship that is perfectly apparent. Yet |
| Tx:16.25 | take the place of what you took in to replace them. They are quite | real as part of the Self you do not know. And they communicate to you |
| Tx:16.25 | home. You who are host to God are also host to them. For nothing | real has ever left the mind of its creator. And what is not real was |
| Tx:16.25 | nothing real has ever left the mind of its creator. And what is not | real was never there. |
| Tx:16.36 | is nothing more than an attempt] to bring love into fear and make it | real in fear. In fundamental violation of love's condition, the |
| Tx:16.36 | it is you think you can do to solve the dilemma, which seems very | real to you, but which does not exist. You have come very close to |
| Tx:16.51 | of specialness as an act of love would make love hateful. And the | real purpose of the special relationship, in strict accordance with |
| Tx:16.60 | helpful tool in protecting you from the attraction of guilt, the | real lure in the special relationship. You do not recognize that this |
| Tx:16.60 | in the special relationship. You do not recognize that this is its | real appeal, for the ego has taught you that freedom lies in it. Yet |
| Tx:16.66 | you cannot keep part of the thought system which taught you it was | real and understand the Thought that really knows what you are. You |
| Tx:16.71 | in the present, and if it means nothing now, it cannot have any | real meaning at all. How can you change the past except in fantasy? |
| Tx:16.79 | that you always choose between truth and illusion—between the | real Atonement which would heal and the ego's “atonement” which would |
| Tx:16.80 | To join in close relationship with Him is to accept relationships as | real and through their reality to give over all illusions for the |
| Tx:17.5 | try to bring truth to illusions, you are trying to make illusions | real and keep them by justifying your belief in them. But to give |
| Tx:17.8 | This loveliness is not a fantasy. It is the | real world, bright and clean and new with everything sparkling under |
| Tx:17.9 | No one but Him Who planned salvation could complete it thus. The | real world, in its loveliness, you learn to reach. Fantasies are all |
| Tx:17.9 | on it. And with this final blessing of God's Son upon himself, the | real perception, born of the new perspective he has learned, has |
| Tx:17.10 | which made perception possible will occur. The perception of the | real world will be so short that you will barely have time to thank |
| Tx:17.10 | For God will take the last step swiftly when you have reached the | real world and have been made ready for Him. |
| Tx:17.11 | The | real world is attained simply by the complete forgiveness of the old, |
| Tx:17.11 | to you the seeming reasons for your making it. In the light of the | real reason which He brings, as you follow Him, He will show you that |
| Tx:17.12 | For forgiveness literally transforms vision and lets you see the | real world reaching quietly and gently across chaos and removing all |
| Tx:17.13 | How much do you want salvation? It will give you the | real world, trembling with readiness to be given you. The eagerness |
| Tx:17.13 | Redeemer and walk with him in trust out of this world and into the | real world of beauty and forgiveness. |
| Tx:17.25 | you value more. The spark of beauty or the veil of ugliness, the | real world or the world of guilt and fear, truth or illusion, freedom |
| Tx:17.26 | step between you and your fantasies. Let my relationship to you be | real to you, and let me bring reality to your perception of your |
| Tx:17.27 | happy, and nothing you do which does not share His purpose can be | real. The purpose God ascribed to anything is its only function. |
| Tx:17.27 | as its Creator did. Whatever fulfills this function not cannot be | real. |
| Tx:17.29 | You have made very | real relationships even in this world which you do not recognize |
| Tx:17.40 | and eternity grows more convincing as you look at it. And now by | real comparison a transformation of both pictures can at last occur. |
| Tx:17.40 | you will recognize as what it is—a picture of what you thought was | real and nothing more. For beyond this picture, you will see nothing. |
| Tx:17.44 | The holy relationship, a major step toward the perception of the | real world, is learned. It is the old unholy relationship transformed |
| Tx:17.79 | you had faith in it, for no one accepts what he does not believe is | real. Your purpose has not changed and will not change, for you |
| Tx:18.7 | individually is pointless. Their tiny differences in form are no | real differences at all. None of them matters. That they have in |
| Tx:18.14 | Does not a world that seems quite | real arise in dreams? Yet think what this world is. It is clearly not |
| Tx:18.17 | is fearful, not what you would do to it. And thus is guilt made | real. |
| Tx:18.18 | it, you see it. And while you see it, you do not doubt that it is | real. Yet here is a world, clearly within your mind, that seems to be |
| Tx:18.19 | Your wish to make another world that is not | real remains with you. And what you seem to wake to is but another |
| Tx:18.20 | you. [But He does use it differently, as a help to make His purpose | real to you.] Your special relationship will remain, not as a source |
| Tx:18.23 | In your relationship, the Holy Spirit has gently laid the | real world—the world of happy dreams from which awaking is so easy |
| Tx:18.23 | your waking dreams represent the same wishes in your mind, so do the | real world and the truth of Heaven join in the Will of God. The dream |
| Tx:18.53 | For your wish to make destructive what cannot destroy can have no | real effect at all. And what God created is only what He would have |
| Tx:18.65 | never experienced just now. Only its past and future make it seem | real. Time controls it entirely, for sin is never present. In any |
| Tx:18.89 | and will act as it directs as long as you believe that guilt is | real. For the reality of guilt is the illusion which seems to make it |
| Tx:18.89 | which seems to make it heavy and opaque, impenetrable, and a | real foundation for the ego's thought system. Its thinness and |
| Tx:18.91 | that it is all there. Figures stand out and move about, actions seem | real, and forms appear and shift from loveliness to the grotesque. |
| Tx:18.91 | it, you do not confuse it with the world below, nor seek to make it | real. |
| Tx:18.93 | This world of light, this circle of brightness, is the | real world where guilt meets with forgiveness. Here the world outside |
| Tx:18.95 | lie beyond words. We need remember only that whoever attains the | real world, beyond which learning cannot go, will go beyond it but in |
| Tx:19.2 | It is this joining Him in a united purpose which makes this purpose | real because you make it whole. And this is healing. The body is |
| Tx:19.12 | to you. Faith is as easily exchanged for knowledge as is the | real world. For faith arises from the Holy Spirit's perception and is |
| Tx:19.18 | reality and to succeed. Sin is the proclamation that attack is | real and guilt is justified. It assumes the Son of God is guilty and |
| Tx:19.23 | embattled citadel more heavily defended than the idea that sin is | real—the natural expression of what the Son of God has made himself |
| Tx:19.26 | be eternal and will be repeated endlessly.] For what you think is | real you want and will not let it go. An error, on the other hand, is |
| Tx:19.31 | When you are tempted to believe that sin is | real, remember this: If sin is real, both God and you are not. If |
| Tx:19.31 | are tempted to believe that sin is real, remember this: If sin is | real, both God and you are not. If creation is extension, the Creator |
| Tx:19.31 | that what is part of Him is totally unlike the rest. If sin is | real, God must be at war with Himself. He must be split and torn |
| Tx:19.33 | If sin were | real, it would forever be beyond the hope of healing. For there would |
| Tx:19.44 | to be accomplished, wherever it is undertaken? Guilt can raise no | real barriers against it. And all that seems to stand between you |
| Tx:19.57 | and death does not atone for sin. Yet you can live to show it is not | real. The body does appear to be the symbol of sin while you believe |
| Tx:19.85 | And what but insanity could look upon the defeat of God and think it | real? |
| Tx:19.86 | The fear of death will go as its appeal is yielded to love's | real attraction. The end of sin, which nestles quietly in the safety |
| Tx:19.98 | unless he has accepted the Atonement and learned illusions are not | real. No one can stand before this obstacle alone, for he could not |
| Tx:20.20 | all. Yet judgment lays a sentence on it, justifies it, and makes it | real. Such is the world you see—a judgment on yourself and made by |
| Tx:20.45 | God invented an unholy relationship between him and his Father. His | real relationship is one of perfect union and unbroken continuity. |
| Tx:20.57 | You have a | real relationship, and it has meaning. It is as like your real |
| Tx:20.57 | You have a real relationship, and it has meaning. It is as like your | real relationship with God as equal things are like unto each other. |
| Tx:20.62 | means by which the ego tries to make the unholy relationship seem | real. The unholy instant is the time of bodies. But the purpose here |
| Tx:20.64 | valued as a separate thing apart from the intention. The means seem | real because the goal is valued. And judgment has no value unless the |
| Tx:20.65 | to see him not in darkness, for your imaginings about him will seem | real there. You closed your eyes to shut him out. Such was your |
| Tx:20.69 | in along with Him. For peace will come to all who ask for it with | real desire and sincerity of purpose, shared with the Holy Spirit and |
| Tx:21.24 | the power of wanting, and therefore of faith, to make its goals seem | real and possible. Faith in the unreal leads to adjustments of |
| Tx:21.25 | Cause he would deny. And so he seems to be the cause, producing | real effects. Nothing can have effects without a cause and to confuse |
| Tx:21.32 | holiness is reached. Through them the Holy Spirit leads you to the | real world and away from all illusions where your faith was laid. |
| Tx:21.62 | they believe they see the body and let their madness tell them it is | real. Reason would be incapable of this. And if you would defend the |
| Tx:21.63 | has a purpose and believes it also has the means to make its purpose | real. To see the body as a barrier between what reason tells you must |
| Tx:21.82 | And therefore those who look on sin are seeing the denial of the | real world. Yet the last question adds the wish for constancy in your |
| Tx:21.82 | last question adds the wish for constancy in your desire to see the | real world, so the desire becomes the only one you have. By answering |
| Tx:21.84 | helpless. Desire what you will, and you will look on it and think it | real. No thought but has the power to release or kill. And none can |
| Tx:22.2 | different from themselves. It is this difference, seen but not | real, that makes the need for sin, not real but seen, seem justified. |
| Tx:22.2 | this difference, seen but not real, that makes the need for sin, not | real but seen, seem justified. And all this would be real if sin were |
| Tx:22.2 | for sin, not real but seen, seem justified. And all this would be | real if sin were so. For an unholy relationship is based on |
| Tx:22.18 | but everything in time can change with time. Yet if the change be | real and not imagined, illusions must give way to truth and not to |
| Tx:22.19 | against the truth makes all truth meaningless and all illusions | real. Such is the power of belief. It cannot compromise. And faith in |
| Tx:22.30 | For reason sees through errors, telling you what you thought was | real is not. Reason can see the difference between sin and mistakes |
| Tx:22.35 | you see it, you must be mistaken, for you are seeing what can not be | real as if it were. What cannot see beyond what is not there must be |
| Tx:22.37 | for each to see himself as causing sin by his desire to have sin | real. Yet reason sees a holy relationship as what it is—a common |
| Tx:22.61 | upon your Father. And that is why it has not happened nor could be | real. You do not see that this is your attempt because you think the |
| Tx:23.8 | purpose. And to those who think that it is possible, the means seem | real. |
| Tx:23.15 | of illusions disappears when it is brought to truth! For it seems | real only as long as it is seen as war between conflicting truths, |
| Tx:23.15 | between conflicting truths, the conqueror to be the truer, the more | real, and vanquisher of the illusion that was less real, made an |
| Tx:23.15 | truer, the more real, and vanquisher of the illusion that was less | real, made an illusion by defeat. Thus, conflict is the choice |
| Tx:23.15 | Thus, conflict is the choice between illusions, one to be crowned as | real, the other vanquished and despised. Here will the Father never |
| Tx:23.23 | And fear of God and of each other now appears as sensible, made | real by what the Son of God has done both to himself and his Creator. |
| Tx:23.33 | has no laws. To be believed, its seeming laws must be perceived as | real. Their goal of madness must be seen as sanity. And fear, with |
| Tx:23.51 | be quite different. Here in the midst of it, it does seem | real. Here you have chosen to be part of it. Here murder is your |
| Tx:23.51 | the perspective coming from this choice shows you the battle is not | real and easily escaped. Bodies may battle, but the clash of forms is |
| Tx:24.14 | Specialness is the idea of sin made | real. Sin is impossible even to imagine without this base. For sin |
| Tx:24.19 | a friend. He is the enemy of specialness but only friend to what is | real in you. Not one attack you thought you made on him has taken |
| Tx:24.20 | stand waiting to receive you both in silent blessing and in peace so | real and so encompassing that nothing stands outside. Leave all |
| Tx:24.34 | Whatever gentleness it offers is but deception, but its hate is | real. In danger of destruction, it must kill, and you are drawn to it |
| Tx:24.38 | itself and give it meaning that the truth denies. All that is | real proclaims his sinlessness. All that is false proclaims his sins |
| Tx:24.38 | proclaims his sinlessness. All that is false proclaims his sins as | real. If he is sinful, then is your reality not real but just a dream |
| Tx:24.38 | his sins as real. If he is sinful, then is your reality not | real but just a dream of specialness which lasts an instant, |
| Tx:24.40 | can wish for something and lack faith that it is so. Wishing makes | real, as surely as does will create. The power of a wish upholds |
| Tx:25.24 | everywhere. Not that the world where this reflection is, is | real at all. Only because His Son believes it is, and from His Son's |
| Tx:25.25 | its wars, the perfect shelter for the illusions which it would make | real. Not one but it upholds in its perception; not one but can be |
| Tx:25.53 | by any form of reason believes this to be true. Sin is not | real because the Father and the Son are not insane. This world is |
| Tx:25.60 | what is this belief except a form of the more basic tenet, “Sin is | real and rules the world”? For every little gain must someone lose |
| Tx:25.67 | impossible, for each one contradicts the other and denies that it is | real. It is impossible for you to share the Holy Spirit's justice |
| Tx:26.21 | between the worlds. In this one, choice is made impossible. In the | real world is choosing simplified. |
| Tx:26.23 | what is the same and seems to choose where no choice really is. The | real world is the area of choice made real, not in the outcome but in |
| Tx:26.23 | where no choice really is. The real world is the area of choice made | real, not in the outcome but in the perception of alternatives for |
| Tx:26.25 | sees himself as needing it no more. And thus is he returned to his | real function of creating, which his forgiveness offers him again. |
| Tx:26.31 | It] is but a little hindrance to eternity, quite meaningless to the | real Teacher of the world. Yet since you do believe in [its reality], |
| Tx:26.36 | an ocean to a place and time that have long since gone by? How | real a hindrance can this dream be to where he really is? For this is |
| Tx:26.37 | a past forever more gone by. And everything which points to it as | real is but a wish that what is gone could be made real again and |
| Tx:26.37 | points to it as real is but a wish that what is gone could be made | real again and seen as here and now in place of what is really now |
| Tx:26.40 | and forth between the past and present. Sometimes the past seems | real, as if it were the present. Voices from the past are heard and |
| Tx:26.41 | and gone and hinder not the true existence of the here and now. The | real world is the second part of the hallucination time and death are |
| Tx:26.41 | world is the second part of the hallucination time and death are | real and have existence which can be perceived. This terrible |
| Tx:26.44 | but just because you have denied it is but an illusion and made it | real. And it is real to you. It is not nothing and through its |
| Tx:26.44 | you have denied it is but an illusion and made it real. And it is | real to you. It is not nothing and through its perceived reality has |
| Tx:26.44 | and death has come to you. For no one can make one illusion | real and still escape the rest. For who can choose to keep the ones |
| Tx:26.48 | apparent. Kept apart from truth, it seems to have a meaning and be | real. |
| Tx:26.49 | its workings. It is in this world, but not a part of it. For it is | real and dwells where all reality must be. Ideas leave not their |
| Tx:26.52 | goes beyond correction to impossibility. Yet the belief that it is | real has made some errors seem forever past the hope of healing and |
| Tx:26.52 | If this were so, would Heaven be opposed by its own opposite, as | real as it. Then would God's Will be split in two and all creation be |
| Tx:26.59 | Here is the firm conviction that ideas can leave their source made | real and meaningful. And from this error does the world of sin and |
| Tx:27.7 | is the motivation for this world. Its only purpose is to prove guilt | real. No worldly thought or act or feeling has a motivation other |
| Tx:27.7 | destroyed is what you love. Depression speaks of death and vanity of | real concern with anything at all. The strongest witness to futility, |
| Tx:27.9 | sins, but witnesses unto the strange belief that sin and death are | real, and innocence and sin will end alike within the termination of |
| Tx:27.14 | they overlook. Yet no one can forgive a sin which he believes is | real. And what has consequences must be real because what it has done |
| Tx:27.14 | a sin which he believes is real. And what has consequences must be | real because what it has done is there to see. Forgiveness is not |
| Tx:27.16 | Forgiveness is not | real unless it brings a healing to your brother and yourself. You |
| Tx:27.16 | attest his sins had no effect on you to demonstrate they were not | real. How else could he be guiltless? And how could his innocence be |
| Tx:27.32 | home. No preparation can be made that would enhance the invitation's | real appeal. For what you leave as vacant, God will fill, and where |
| Tx:27.39 | takes, its purpose is the same. It asks but to establish sin is | real and answers in the form of preference. “Which sin do you prefer? |
| Tx:27.50 | of all the differences you see convinces you that they could not be | real. |
| Tx:27.54 | Pain demonstrates the body must be | real. It is a loud, obscuring voice whose shrieks would silence what |
| Tx:27.54 | is the same as pleasure, for they both are means to make the body | real. What shares a common purpose is the same. This is the law of |
| Tx:27.56 | the witnesses to its reality. You cannot choose among them which are | real, for any one you choose is like the rest. This name or that, but |
| Tx:27.57 | names which speak in other ways for its reality. He knows it is not | real. For nothing could contain what you believe it holds within. Nor |
| Tx:27.57 | no death. Each miracle He brings is witness that the body is not | real. Its pains and pleasures does He heal alike, for all sin's |
| Tx:27.68 | does not see the part he plays in making them and making them seem | real. |
| Tx:27.71 | perceive, although it caused the part you see and do not doubt is | real. How could you doubt it while you lie asleep and dream in secret |
| Tx:27.71 | doubt it while you lie asleep and dream in secret that its cause is | real? |
| Tx:27.73 | and made war upon himself. So fearful is the dream, so seeming | real, he could not waken to reality without the sweat of terror and a |
| Tx:27.78 | because the body seeks in many ways to prove it is autonomous and | real. It puts things on itself which it has bought with little metal |
| Tx:27.80 | who reacts to figures in a dream unless he sees them as if they were | real? The instant that he sees them as they are, they have no more |
| Tx:27.80 | he gave them their effects by causing them and making them seem | real. |
| Tx:27.81 | knew nothing of a body and could never have conceived this world as | real. He would have seen at once that these ideas are one illusion, |
| Tx:27.82 | become a serious idea and possible of both accomplishment and | real effects. Together, we can laugh them both away and understand |
| Tx:27.83 | A timelessness in which is time made | real; a part of God which can attack itself; a separate brother as an |
| Tx:28.21 | it has no purpose. You may cause a dream, but never will you give it | real effects. For that would change its cause, and it is this you |
| Tx:28.29 | withhold agreement and accept the part you play in making sickness | real, the other mind cannot project its guilt without your aid in |
| Tx:28.38 | as the same because you think that you are but a dream. And what is | real and what is but illusion in yourself you do not know and cannot |
| Tx:28.48 | and death, of sin and suffering, [of] pain and loss, that makes them | real. Unshared, they are perceived as meaningless. The fear is gone |
| Tx:28.51 | imagined, and let them persuade their maker his imaginings [were] | real. |
| Tx:28.53 | see does not exist because the place where you perceive it is not | real. The gap is carefully concealed in fog, and misty pictures rise |
| Tx:29.8 | There is a wariness that is aroused by learning that the body is not | real. And there are overtones of seeming fear around the happy |
| Tx:29.47 | of life which in its lifelessness is really death, conceived as | real and given living form. Yet each must fail and crumble and decay |
| Tx:29.50 | are dreams but in a mind asleep? And can a dream succeed in making | real the pictures it projects outside itself? Save time, my brothers; |
| Tx:29.54 | An idol is a wish made tangible and given form and thus perceived as | real and seen outside the mind. Yet it is still a thought and cannot |
| Tx:29.55 | enemy is nowhere. He can take no form in which he ever will be | real. |
| Tx:29.64 | eager to forget that they made up the dream in which their toys are | real, nor recognize their wishes are their own. |
| Tx:29.65 | The toys have turned against the child who thought he made them | real. Yet can a dream attack? Or can a toy grow large and dangerous |
| Tx:29.65 | save him from his thoughts. Yet do they keep his thoughts alive and | real but seen outside himself, where they can turn against him for |
| Tx:29.65 | that he may escape his thoughts, because he thinks the thoughts are | real. And so he makes of anything a toy to make his world remain |
| Tx:29.66 | in a world he thinks is governed by the laws he made. Yet is the | real world unaffected by the world he thinks is real. Nor have its |
| Tx:29.66 | he made. Yet is the real world unaffected by the world he thinks is | real. Nor have its laws been changed because he did not understand. |
| Tx:29.67 | The | real world still is but a dream. Except the figures have been |
| Tx:30.29 | determination not to make decisions by yourself. This seems to be a | real decision in itself. And yet, you cannot make decisions by |
| Tx:30.53 | that you have been deceived. Attack has power to make illusions | real. Yet what it makes is nothing. Who could be made fearful by a |
| Tx:30.53 | is nothing. Who could be made fearful by a power that can have no | real effects at all? What could it be but an illusion, making things |
| Tx:30.53 | do not threaten him at all. His one mistake is that he thinks them | real. What can the power of illusions do? |
| Tx:30.57 | The | real world is the state of mind in which the only purpose of the |
| Tx:30.60 | how this can be, for understanding this is Heaven itself. Even the | real world has a purpose still beneath creation and eternity. But |
| Tx:30.61 | The | real world still falls short of this, for this is God's own purpose— |
| Tx:30.61 | —only His, and yet completely shared and perfectly fulfilled. The | real world is a state in which the mind has learned how easily do |
| Tx:30.62 | Thus is the | real world's purpose gently brought into awareness, to replace the |
| Tx:30.63 | purpose in the world of fear, they stand already at the edge of the | real world. Perhaps they still look back and think they see an idol |
| Tx:30.70 | here escape from fear begins and will be made complete. Here is the | real world given in exchange for dreams of terror. For it is on this |
| Tx:30.71 | sure foundation. You do not forgive the unforgivable nor overlook a | real attack that calls for punishment. Salvation does not lie in |
| Tx:30.71 | asked to make unnatural responses which are inappropriate to what is | real. Instead, it merely asks that you respond appropriately to what |
| Tx:30.71 | it merely asks that you respond appropriately to what is not | real by not perceiving what has not occurred. If pardon were |
| Tx:30.72 | This understanding is the only change that lets the | real world rise to take the place of dreams of terror. Fear cannot |
| Tx:30.72 | Fear cannot arise unless attack is justified, and if it had a | real foundation, pardon would have none. The real world is achieved |
| Tx:30.72 | and if it had a real foundation, pardon would have none. The | real world is achieved when you perceive the basis of forgiveness is |
| Tx:30.72 | is achieved when you perceive the basis of forgiveness is quite | real and fully justified. While you regard it as a gift unwarranted, |
| Tx:30.73 | And recognizing God is just, it seems impossible His pardon could be | real. Thus is the fear of God the sure result of seeing pardon as |
| Tx:30.75 | to let all idols go. And thus you think that some appearances are | real and not appearances at all. Be not deceived about the meaning of |
| Tx:30.76 | or it cannot heal. Its purpose cannot be to judge which forms are | real and which appearances are true. If one appearance must remain |
| Tx:30.80 | that guilt has not succeeded by your wish to make illusions | real. And what is this except a simple statement of the truth? |
| Tx:30.89 | deceived. For everything you see will change, and yet you thought it | real before, and now you think it real again. Reality is thus reduced |
| Tx:30.89 | change, and yet you thought it real before, and now you think it | real again. Reality is thus reduced to form and capable of change. |
| Tx:30.89 | capable of change. Reality is changeless. It is this that makes it | real and keeps it separate from all appearances. It must transcend |
| Tx:30.90 | it can so easily be changed. This demonstrates that it was never | real and could not stem from his reality. For that is changeless and |
| Tx:30.91 | What is temptation but a wish to make illusions | real? It does not seem to be the wish that no reality be so. Yet it |
| Tx:31.5 | that It could be opposed, and that a will apart from It was yet more | real than It. And this has learning sought to demonstrate, and you |
| Tx:31.27 | you did not believe they could not be forgiven in you? Why are they | real in him if you did not believe that they are your reality? And |
| Tx:31.34 | Real choice is no illusion. But the world has none to offer. All its | |
| Tx:31.37 | away from all the roadways of the world unless he understood their | real futility? Is it not needful that he should begin with this, to |
| Tx:31.38 | what its form may be, is the beginning of acceptance that there is a | real alternative instead. To fight against this step is to defeat |
| Tx:31.40 | There is a choice which you have power to make when you have seen the | real alternatives. Until that point is reached, you have no choice, |
| Tx:31.49 | the world. But they cannot be used to demonstrate the world is | real. For all of them are made within the world, born in its shadow, |
| Tx:31.62 | the Spirit. There is no compromise between the two. If one is | real the other must be false, for what is real denies its opposite. |
| Tx:31.62 | between the two. If one is real the other must be false, for what is | real denies its opposite. There is no choice in vision but this one. |
| Tx:31.62 | one. What you decide in this determines all you see and think is | real and hold as true. On this one choice does all your world depend, |
| Tx:31.81 | to choose against? Consider what temptation is, and see the | real alternatives you choose between. There are but two. Be not |
| Tx:31.86 | strength of Christ in you. And what you choose is what you think is | real. Simply by never using weakness to direct your actions, you have |
| Tx:31.87 | from you. His holiness is yours because He is the only power that is | real in you. His strength is yours because He is the Self that God |
| W1:4.2 | use “good” thoughts as well as “bad.” None of them represents your | real thoughts, which are being covered up by them. The “good” ones of |
| W1:8.3 | has been merely blank, rather than believing that it is filled with | real ideas, is the first step to opening the way to vision. |
| W1:10.1 | the idea is applicable to all of them is that they are not your | real thoughts. We have made this distinction before and will again. |
| W1:14.4 | and then deny its reality. God did not create it, and so it is not | real. Say, for example: |
| W1:14.5 | God did not create that war, and so it is not | real. God did not create that airplane crash, and so it is not real. |
| W1:14.5 | not real. God did not create that airplane crash, and so it is not | real. God did not create that disaster [specify], and so it is not |
| W1:14.5 | real. God did not create that disaster [specify], and so it is not | real. |
| W1:14.10 | [specify the situation which is disturbing you], and so it is not | real. |
| W1:15.2 | same familiar objects which you see now. That is the beginning of | real vision. You can be certain that real vision will come quickly |
| W1:15.2 | now. That is the beginning of real vision. You can be certain that | real vision will come quickly when this has occurred. |
| W1:20.5 | half hour. Do not be distressed if you forget to do so, but make a | real effort to remember. The extra repetitions should be applied to |
| W1:20.5 | and you will. What you desire, you will see. Such is the | real law of cause and effect as it operates in the world. |
| W1:22.2 | you want to escape. Is it not joyous news to hear that it is not | real? Is it not a happy discovery to find that you can escape? You |
| W1:22.4 | only the perishable. I see nothing that will last. What I see is not | real. What I see is a form of vengeance. |
| W1:26.1 | you can be attacked, you are not invulnerable. You see attack as a | real threat. That is because you believe that you can really attack. |
| W1:27.7 | The | real question is how often will you remember? How much do you want |
| W1:28.5 | of happiness and hope. Hidden under all your ideas about it is its | real purpose, the purpose it shares with all the universe. |
| W1:30.4 | Real vision is not limited to concepts such as “near” and “far.” To | |
| W1:30.4 | as well as those you can actually see, as you apply today's idea. | Real vision is not only unlimited by space and distance, but it does |
| W1:41.1 | problem. Yet its effects cannot be cured because the problem is not | real. |
| W1:41.2 | loss because it will heal the mind that thought these things were | real and suffered out of its allegiance to them. |
| W1:41.4 | yet representing all you see? Today we will make our first | real attempt to get past this dark and heavy cloud and to go through |
| W1:43.3 | because whatever you think, you think with His Mind. If vision is | real, and it is real to the extent to which it shares the Holy |
| W1:43.3 | you think, you think with His Mind. If vision is real, and it is | real to the extent to which it shares the Holy Spirit's purpose, then |
| W1:45.1 | Today's idea holds the key to what your | real thoughts are. They are nothing that you think you think, just as |
| W1:45.1 | to vision in any way. There is no relationship between what is | real and what you think is real. Nothing that you think are your real |
| W1:45.1 | There is no relationship between what is real and what you think is | real. Nothing that you think are your real thoughts resembles your |
| W1:45.1 | is real and what you think is real. Nothing that you think are your | real thoughts resembles your real thoughts in any respect. Nothing |
| W1:45.1 | real. Nothing that you think are your real thoughts resembles your | real thoughts in any respect. Nothing that you think you see bears |
| W1:45.3 | Where, then, are your | real thoughts? Today we will attempt to reach them. We will have to |
| W1:45.4 | idea. We will attempt to leave the unreal and seek for the | real. We will deny the world in favor of truth. We will not let the |
| W1:45.7 | My | real thoughts are in my mind. I would like to find them. |
| W1:47.4 | Today we will try to reach past your own weakness to the Source of | real strength. Four five-minute practice periods are necessary today, |
| W1:47.7 | You must also gain an awareness that your confidence in your | real strength is fully justified in every respect and in all |
| W1:47.8 | the practice period, try to reach down into your mind to a place of | real safety. You will recognize that you have reached it if you feel |
| W1:49.4 | Go past all the raucous shrieks and sick imaginings that cover your | real thoughts and obscure your eternal link with God. Sink deep into |
| W1:49.4 | insane world. You do not live there. We are trying to reach your | real home. We are trying to reach the place where you are truly |
| W1:51.5 | am trying to think without God. What I call “my” thoughts are not my | real thoughts. My real thoughts are the thoughts I think with God. I |
| W1:51.5 | without God. What I call “my” thoughts are not my real thoughts. My | real thoughts are the thoughts I think with God. I am not aware of |
| W1:53.2 | and so is what it produces. Reality is not insane, and I have | real thoughts as well as insane ones. I can therefore see a real |
| W1:53.2 | I have real thoughts as well as insane ones. I can therefore see a | real world if I look to my real thoughts as my guide for seeing. |
| W1:53.2 | as insane ones. I can therefore see a real world if I look to my | real thoughts as my guide for seeing. |
| W1:53.3 | live in peace in such a world. I am grateful that this world is not | real and that I need not see it at all unless I choose to value it. |
| W1:53.4 | It holds out no safety and no hope. But such a world is not | real. I have given it the illusion of reality, and have suffered from |
| W1:53.5 | create it? He is the Source of all meaning, and everything that is | real is in His Mind. It is in my mind too because He created it with |
| W1:53.6 | only the representation of my insane thoughts and am not allowing my | real thoughts to cast their beneficent light on what I see. Yet God's |
| W1:54.2 | have power. They will either make a false world or lead me to the | real one. But thoughts cannot be without effects. As the world I see |
| W1:54.2 | As the world I see arises from my thinking errors, so will the | real world rise before my eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My |
| W1:54.4 | Yet that sharing was a sharing of nothing. I can also call upon my | real thoughts, which share everything with everybody. As my thoughts |
| W1:54.4 | of separation call to the separation thoughts of others, so my | real thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the world my real |
| W1:54.4 | to the separation thoughts of others, so my real thoughts awaken the | real thoughts in them. And the world my real thoughts show me will |
| W1:54.4 | my real thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the world my | real thoughts show me will dawn on their sight as well as mine. |
| W1:54.6 | weeping, and abundance to replace loss. I would look upon the | real world, and let it teach me that my will and the Will of God are |
| W1:55.6 | purpose of everything is to prove that my illusions about myself are | real. It is for that purpose that I attempt to use everyone and |
| W1:55.6 | that I believe the world is for. Therefore I do not recognize its | real purpose. The purpose I have given the world has led to a |
| W1:55.6 | has led to a frightening picture of it. Let me open my mind to its | real purpose by withdrawing the one I have given it, and learning the |
| W1:56.2 | the world I see. But God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My own | real thoughts will teach me what it is. |
| W1:58.2 | everything I see. From my holiness does the perception of the | real world come. Having forgiven, I no longer see myself as guilty. I |
| W1:61.3 | tells you it is true. This is a beginning step in accepting your | real function on earth. It is a giant stride toward taking your |
| W1:66.4 | purpose your acceptance of the fact that not only is there a very | real connection between the function God gave you and your happiness, |
| W1:69.2 | Today let us make another | real attempt to reach the light in you. Before we undertake this in |
| W1:69.3 | practice period today with the full realization of all this and | real determination to reach what is dearer to us than all else. |
| W1:70.10 | situations and events, and in self-concepts which you sought to make | real. Recognize that it was not there. Tell yourself: |
| W1:70.13 | for idols there when you could so easily walk on into the light of | real salvation. Try to pass the clouds by whatever means appeals to |
| W1:71.7 | the answer. Only God's plan for salvation will work. There can be no | real conflict about this, because there is no possible alternative to |
| W1:72.6 | makes this view of God quite convincing. In fact, if the body were | real, it would be difficult indeed to escape this conclusion. And |
| W1:72.6 | And every grievance that you hold insists that the body is | real. It overlooks entirely what your brother is. It reinforces your |
| W1:73.1 | they are idle indeed in terms of creation. They make nothing that is | real. |
| W1:74.10 | but God's. I share it with Him. My conflicts about _____ cannot be | real. |
| W1:75.4 | only this. Our single purpose makes our goal inevitable. Today the | real world rises before us in gladness, to be seen at last. Sight is |
| W1:75.15 | as we celebrate the beginning of your vision and the sight of the | real world which has come to replace the unforgiven world you thought |
| W1:75.15 | world which has come to replace the unforgiven world you thought was | real. |
| W1:77.6 | There is no room for doubt and uncertainty today. We are asking a | real question at last. The answer is a simple statement of a simple |
| W1:88.5 | over me. I suffer only because of my belief in them. They have no | real effect on me at all. I am perfectly free of the effects of all |
| W1:91.9 | to put your faith in, as you lift it from the body. You need a | real experience of something else, something more solid and more |
| W1:96.4 | no attempt to reconcile the two, for one denies the other can be | real. If you are physical, your mind is gone from your self-concept, |
| W1:96.7 | could it serve? What is it for? Salvation cannot make illusions | real and solve a problem that does not exist. Perhaps you hope it |
| W1:96.14 | These are your own | real thoughts you have denied, and let your mind go wandering in a |
| W1:99.3 | where both of them exist? The mind that sees illusions thinks them | real. They have existence in that they are thoughts. And yet they are |
| W1:99.3 | They have existence in that they are thoughts. And yet they are not | real because the mind that thinks these thoughts is separate from God. |
| W1:99.4 | the never done is overlooked and sins forgotten which were never | real? |
| W1:99.5 | Yet it operates in time because of your belief that time is | real. Unshaken does the Holy Spirit look on what you see—on sin and |
| W1:99.10 | does the rest. It does not think its solitary thoughts and make them | real by hiding them from Him. Let in the light, and you will look |
| W1:101.1 | is not so. Yet you must think it so while you believe that sin is | real and that God's Son can sin. If sin is real, then punishment is |
| W1:101.1 | you believe that sin is real and that God's Son can sin. If sin is | real, then punishment is just and cannot be escaped. Salvation thus |
| W1:101.2 | If sin is | real then happiness must be illusion, for they cannot both be true. |
| W1:101.3 | If sin is | real, salvation must be pain. Pain is the cost of sin, and suffering |
| W1:101.3 | is the cost of sin, and suffering can never be escaped if sin is | real. Salvation must be feared, for it will kill but slowly, taking |
| W1:101.4 | him? Why would he try to listen and accept Its offering? If sin is | real, its offering is death and meted out in cruel form to match the |
| W1:101.4 | form to match the vicious wishes in which sin is born. If sin is | real, salvation has become your bitter enemy, the curse of God upon |
| W1:101.5 | You need the practice periods today. The exercises teach sin is not | real, and all that you believe must come from sin will never happen, |
| W1:101.9 | heavy load you laid upon yourself with the insane belief that sin is | real. |
| W1:103.2 | become the heritage of minds that think what they have made is | real. These images, with no reality in truth, bear witness to the |
| W1:110.2 | If you remain as God created you, fear has no meaning, evil is not | real, and misery and death do not exist. Today's idea is therefore |
| W1:121.4 | damnation? What can it behold except the proof that all its sins are | real? The unforgiving mind sees no mistakes, but only sins. It looks |
| W1:123.2 | now to gratitude will add the benefit of some insight into the | real extent of all the gains which you have made; the gifts you have |
| W1:129.5 | them not, and they will disappear. Esteem them, and they will seem | real to you. |
| W1:130.3 | fear project upon the world? What can be seen in darkness that is | real? Truth is eclipsed by fear, and what remains is but imagined. |
| W1:130.3 | eclipsed by fear, and what remains is but imagined. Yet what can be | real in blind imaginings of panic born? What would you want that this |
| W1:130.5 | are the range of choice beyond which your decision cannot go. The | real and the unreal are all there is to choose between, and nothing |
| W1:130.7 | part of unreality as we devote our minds to finding only what is | real. |
| W1:130.11 | merely by remembering the limits on your choice. The unreal or the | real, the false or true is what you see, and only what you see. |
| W1:130.12 | Accept a little part of hell as | real, and you have damned your eyes and cursed your sight, and what |
| W1:131.2 | they lead? And what could they achieve that offers any hope of being | real? |
| W1:131.11 | goal three times today, and we will ask to see the rising of the | real world to replace the foolish images that we held dear, with true |
| W1:131.14 | see, although your eyes are closed, the senseless world you think is | real. Review the thoughts as well which are compatible with such a |
| W1:132.1 | their effects as is the truth. A madman thinks the world he sees is | real and does not doubt it. Nor can he be swayed by questioning his |
| W1:132.4 | it are your wishes, acted out so you can look on them and think them | real. |
| W1:132.12 | world you see? Does it create like Him? Unless it does, it is not | real and cannot be at all. If you are real, the world you see is |
| W1:132.12 | Him? Unless it does, it is not real and cannot be at all. If you are | real, the world you see is false, for God's creation is unlike the |
| W1:132.13 | Release the world! Your | real creations wait for this release to give you fatherhood, not of |
| W1:132.14 | destroy His wholeness. Can a world which comes from this idea be | real? Can it be anywhere? Deny illusions, but accept the truth. Deny |
| W1:132.17 | created me would loose the world from all I thought it was. For I am | real because the world is not, and I would know my own reality. |
| W1:133.3 | There are no satisfactions in the world. Today we list the | real criteria by which to test all things you think you want. Unless |
| W1:133.7 | value is without all value. Time can never take away a value that is | real. What fades and dies was never there and makes no offering to |
| W1:133.12 | your choice, you have allowed the ego's goals to come between the | real alternatives, and thus you do not realize there are but two. And |
| W1:133.14 | with an honest willingness to value but the truly valuable and the | real. |
| W1:134.4 | Because you think your sins are | real, you look on pardon as deception. For it is impossible to think |
| W1:134.5 | is everlasting. Those who are forgiven from the view their sins are | real are pitifully mocked and twice condemned—first by themselves |
| W1:135.1 | defend himself unless he thought he was attacked, that the attack is | real, and that his own defense can save himself? And herein lies the |
| W1:135.1 | it gives illusions full reality and then attempts to handle them as | real. It adds illusions to illusions, thus making correction doubly |
| W1:135.4 | is made. You think it offers safety. Yet it speaks of fear made | real and terror justified. Is it not strange you do not pause to ask, |
| W1:135.9 | The “self” that needs protection is not | real. The body, valueless and hardly worth the least defense, need |
| W1:135.11 | have been corrected and replaced with truth. This is the body's only | real defense. Yet is this where you look for its defense? You offer |
| W1:136.4 | up a series of defenses to reduce the threat that has been judged as | real? All this cannot be done unconsciously. But afterwards your plan |
| W1:136.4 | intent—a happening beyond your state of mind, an outcome with a | real effect on you instead of one effected by your self. |
| W1:136.7 | that they stand but for your own decision of what should be | real, to take the place of what is real. |
| W1:136.7 | own decision of what should be real, to take the place of what is | real. |
| W1:137.2 | do not feel. It gives the body final power to make the separation | real and keep the mind in solitary prison, split apart and held in |
| W1:137.4 | never needed by the truth, must demonstrate that sickness is not | real. |
| W1:137.5 | healing but removes illusions that have not occurred. Just as the | real world will arise to take the place of what has never been at |
| W1:137.6 | becomes more powerful than Christ to those who dream the world is | real. The body seems to be more solid and more stable than the mind. |

| W1:138.7 | the intent you gave it, that it be a means for demonstrating hell is | real, hope changes to despair, and life itself must in the end be |
| W1:138.11 | but an appearance of the truth. Its pseudo-being, brought to what is | real, is flimsy and transparent in the light. It holds no terror now, |
| W1:140.6 | It merely focuses on what it is and knows that no illusion can be | real. |
| W1:140.14 | no illusion can disturb our minds nor offer proof to us that it is | real. This will we learn today. And we will say our prayer for |
| W1:151.3 | the truth. This is awareness which you understand and think more | real than what is witnessed to by the eternal Voice of God Himself. |

| W1:155.4 | appear to them as if it asked the sacrifice of something that is | real. Many have chosen to renounce the world while still believing |
| W1:159.3 | the world presents can show but twisted images in broken parts. The | real world pictures Heaven's innocence. |
| W1:160.1 | Self remains an alien to the part of you which thinks that it is | real but different from yourself. Who could be sane in such a |
| W1:160.4 | no home can shelter love and fear. They cannot coexist. If you are | real, then fear must be illusion. And if fear is real, then you do |
| W1:160.4 | coexist. If you are real, then fear must be illusion. And if fear is | real, then you do not exist at all. |
| W1:163.2 | and the sick bow down before its image, thinking it alone is | real, inevitable, worthy of their trust. For it alone will surely |

| W1:166.2 | not the Will of God, and so it is not real. Yet those who think it | real must still believe there is another will, and one that leads to |

| W1:186.6 | Arrogance makes an image of yourself that is not | real. It is this image which quails and retreats in terror as the |
| W1:190.1 | if seen aright. For pain proclaims God cruel. How could it be | real in any form? It witnesses to God the Father's hatred of His Son, |

| W2:WIS.3 | which are untrue. They are the “proof” that what has no reality is | real. Sin “proves” God's Son is evil; timelessness must have an end; |
| W2:278.1 | obeys must I obey—the frailties and the sins which I perceive are | real and cannot be escaped. If I am bound in any way, I do not know |
| W2:289.1 | Unless the past is over in my mind, the | real world must escape my sight. For I am really looking nowhere, |

| W2:344.1 | brothers fill my store with Heaven's treasures, which alone are | real. Thus is the law of love fulfilled. And thus Your Son arises and |
| W2:347.1 | knows the truth. He looks on pain, and yet He understands it is not | real, and in His understanding it is healed. He gives the miracles my |

| Tx:4.31 | nothing more than that the ego has deluded itself into accepting its | reality and is therefore temporarily less predatory. This “self |
| Tx:4.31 | actually refers to a condition in which the delusion of the ego's | reality is threatened. This produces either ego deflation or ego |
| Tx:4.35 | that the Soul will be punished for this lapse, even though in | reality it could not possibly know anything about it. |
| Tx:4.98 | this state to be curtailed, you are limiting your sense of your own | reality, which becomes total only by your recognizing all reality in |
| Tx:4.98 | your own reality, which becomes total only by your recognizing all | reality in the glorious context of its real relationship to you. This |
| Tx:4.98 | the glorious context of its real relationship to you. This is your | reality. Do not desecrate it or recoil from it. It is your real home, |

| Tx:6.50 | and you will no longer believe in dreams because they will have no | reality for you. |
| Tx:6.51 | Yet the Kingdom and all that you have created there will have great | reality for you, because they are beautiful and true. In the Kingdom, |

| Tx:7.29 | your choice. Is it really a choice? It seems to be, but seeming and | reality are hardly the same. You who are the Kingdom are not |

| Tx:7.95 | Insanity appears to add to | reality, but no one would claim that what it adds is true. Insanity |
| Tx:7.113 | Your creations cannot establish your | reality any more than you can establish God's. But you can know both. |
| Tx:8.3 | say, “I am not real.” Hallucinations are inaccurate perceptions of | reality. Yet you are not asked to dispel them alone. You are merely |

| Tx:8.7 | but if you listen to both, your mind will be split about what your | reality is. |
| Tx:8.8 | There is a rationale for choice. Only one Teacher knows what your | reality is. If learning that is the purpose of the curriculum, you |
| Tx:8.37 | Let the love of God shine upon you by your acceptance of me. My | reality is yours and His. By joining your will with mine, you are |
| Tx:8.55 | Spirit does not see the body as you do, because He knows the only | reality anything can have is the service it can render God on behalf |
| Tx:8.59 | since it seems to involve the translation of one order of | reality into another. Different orders of reality merely appear to |
| Tx:8.59 | of one order of reality into another. Different orders of | reality merely appear to exist, just as different orders of miracles |
| Tx:8.81 | is distorted willing, which wants things to be as they are not. The | reality of everything is totally harmless, because total harmlessness |
| Tx:8.81 | totally harmless, because total harmlessness is the condition of its | reality. It is also the condition of your awareness of its reality. |
| Tx:8.81 | of its reality. It is also the condition of your awareness of its | reality. You do not have to seek reality. It will seek you and find |

| Tx:8.90 | that reality cannot “threaten” anything except illusions, since | reality can only uphold truth. The very fact that the Will of God, |
| Tx:8.90 | What seems to be the fear of God is really only the fear of your own | reality. |
| Tx:8.91 | course is that you do not know who you are. If you do not know your | reality, how would you know whether it is fearful or not? |
| Tx:8.92 | impossible to escape from it without a Guide who does know what your | reality is. The purpose of this Guide is merely to remind you of what |
| Tx:8.93 | it real to you because He is in your mind and therefore He is your | reality. If, then, His perception of your mind brings its reality to |
| Tx:8.93 | He is your reality. If, then, His perception of your mind brings its | reality to you, He is teaching you what you are. |
| Tx:8.94 | call upon you to sacrifice anything. But if you ask the sacrifice of | reality of yourselves, the Holy Spirit must remind you that this is |
| Tx:8.96 | of safety. Yet you cannot be safe from truth but only in it. | Reality is the only safety. Your will is your salvation because it is |
| Tx:8.99 | there are no unbelievers and no sacrifices. In the security of | reality, fear is totally meaningless. To deny what is can only seem |
| Tx:8.103 | and if they are strong, they will induce panic. Willing against | reality, though impossible, can be made into a very persistent goal, |
| Tx:8.104 | are devoted to. Otherwise, you would not have been created perfect. | Reality is everything, and therefore you have everything because you |
| Tx:8.104 | you are real. You cannot make the unreal, because the absence of | reality is fearful, and fear cannot be created. As long as you |
| Tx:8.104 | that fear is possible, you will not create. Opposing orders of | reality make reality meaningless, and reality is meaning. |
| Tx:8.104 | is possible, you will not create. Opposing orders of reality make | reality meaningless, and reality is meaning. |
| Tx:8.104 | not create. Opposing orders of reality make reality meaningless, and | reality is meaning. |
| Tx:8.105 | and nothing else will ever be. This is the simple acceptance of | reality, because only this is real. You cannot distort reality and |
| Tx:8.105 | acceptance of reality, because only this is real. You cannot distort | reality and know what it is. And if you do distort reality, you will |

| Tx:9.18 | one turns to fantasy unless he despairs of finding satisfaction in | reality. Yet it is certain that he will never find satisfaction in |
| Tx:9.18 | in fantasy, so that his only hope is to change his mind about | reality. Only if the decision that reality is fearful is wrong can |
| Tx:9.18 | hope is to change his mind about reality. Only if the decision that | reality is fearful is wrong can God be right. And I assure you that |
| Tx:9.18 | can. The impossible can happen only in fantasy. When you search for | reality in fantasies, you will not find it. The symbols of fantasy |
| Tx:9.19 | them, and so for a while the tales are true for them. Yet when | reality dawns, the fantasies are gone. Reality has not gone in the |

| Tx:9.39 | of the obvious since obviousness is the essential characteristic of | reality. Yet you cannot overlook it unless you are not looking. |
| Tx:9.44 | it, its foundation does stand. The Holy Spirit judges against the | reality of the ego's thought system merely because He knows its |
| Tx:9.51 | grandeur establishes your freedom. Even the faintest hint of your | reality literally drives the ego from your mind because of complete |
| Tx:9.51 | it is real, it is compellingly convincing. Yet the conviction of | reality will not remain with you unless you do not allow the ego to |
| Tx:9.55 | and therefore will deprive you of your true witnesses to your | reality. Truth is not obscure nor hidden, but its obviousness to you |
| Tx:9.65 | home in God, dreaming of exile but perfectly capable of awakening to | reality. Is it your will to do so? You know from your own experience |
| Tx:9.66 | dreams, or would you dismiss both together if you discovered that | reality is in accord with neither? You do not remember being awake. |
| Tx:9.69 | Yet to give up the dissociation of | reality brings more than merely lack of fear. In this decision lie |
| Tx:9.69 | part of Him when you are willing to remember Him and know your own | reality again. Let nothing in this world delay your remembering of |
| Tx:9.71 | teaching yourself that you are not what you are. Your denial of | reality precludes the acceptance of God's gift, because you have |
| Tx:9.72 | when you attack, you must have forgotten what you are. And if your | reality is God's, when you attack you are not remembering Him. This |
| Tx:9.73 | is perfectly clear if you will look at it. By deciding against your | reality, you have made yourself vigilant against God and His Kingdom. |
| Tx:9.74 | You have not attacked God, and you do love Him. Can you change your | reality? No one can will to destroy himself. When you think you are |
| Tx:9.82 | the eternal. If God has but one Son, there is but one God. You share | reality with Him, because reality is not divided. To accept other |
| Tx:9.82 | one Son, there is but one God. You share reality with Him, because | reality is not divided. To accept other gods before Him is to place |
| Tx:9.84 | Although it is perfectly clear that this has nothing to do with | reality, it is equally clear that it has everything to do with |
| Tx:9.84 | with reality, it is equally clear that it has everything to do with | reality as you perceive it. |
| Tx:9.86 | Reality can dawn only on an unclouded mind. It is always there to be | |
| Tx:9.86 | but its acceptance depends on your willingness to have it. To know | reality must involve the willingness to judge unreality for what it |
| Tx:9.89 | automatically look beyond it to what is in you and all around you. | Reality cannot break through the obstructions you interpose, but it |
| Tx:9.90 | is. No false gods you attempt to interpose between yourself and your | reality affect truth at all. Peace is yours because God created you. |
| Tx:9.104 | Son perfect, that is how you must learn to see him to learn of his | reality. And as part of the Sonship, that is how you must see |
| Tx:10.5 | he is. In whatever part of the Mind of God's Son you restore this | reality, you restore it to yourself. For you dwell in the Mind of God |
| Tx:10.7 | It continues forever, however much it is denied. Your denial of its | reality arrests it in time but not in eternity. That is why your |
| Tx:10.17 | you become. If you have denied truth, what better witnesses to its | reality could you have than those who have been healed by it? But be |
| Tx:10.22 | whether you invite it in or not. Real freedom depends on welcoming | reality, and of your guests, only He is real. Know, then, who abides |
| Tx:10.40 | already that its effects can be dispelled merely by denying their | reality. The next step is obviously to recognize that what has no |
| Tx:10.40 | operate in a vacuum, and what leads to nothing has not happened. If | reality is recognized by its extension, what extends to nothing |
| Tx:10.46 | goal of autonomy is nothing else. The ego is totally confused about | reality, but it does not lose sight of its goal. It is much more |
| Tx:10.55 | this universe which, in turn, becomes its demonstration of its own | reality. |
| Tx:10.58 | him. Everyone convinces you of what you want to perceive and of the | reality of the kingdom you have chosen for your vigilance. Everything |
| Tx:10.66 | still lies heavy on your eyes, but what you see in dreams is not | reality. While you perceive the Son of God as crucified, you are |
| Tx:10.70 | Those which his mind perceived in this world are the world's only | reality. They are still perceptions because he still believes that he |
| Tx:10.71 | something that is not real to the real, thus confusing illusion and | reality. For perceptions cannot be partly true. If you believe in |
| Tx:10.73 | perceive only this is salvation because it is the recognition that | reality is only what is true. |
| Tx:10.74 | that a course which, in the end, teaches nothing more than that only | reality is true is necessary. But do you believe it? When you have |
| Tx:10.81 | what is yours is everything, and you share it with God. This is its | reality. Would the Holy Spirit, Who wills only to restore, be capable |
| Tx:10.84 | be deceived in your brother and see only his loving thoughts as his | reality, for by denying that his mind is split, you will heal yours. |
| Tx:10.85 | in the presence of God's answer? Ask, then, to learn of the | reality of your brother because this is what you will perceive in |
| Tx:10.88 | perceive and are willing to let their interpretations go in favor of | reality, their fear goes with them. When a child is helped to |
| Tx:10.89 | Ask what they are of the Teacher of | Reality, and hearing His answer, you too will laugh at your fears and |
| Tx:10.89 | at your fears and replace them with peace. For fear lies not in | reality, but in the minds of children who do not understand reality. |
| Tx:10.89 | not in reality, but in the minds of children who do not understand | reality. It is only their lack of understanding which frightens them, |
| Tx:10.89 | will ask for truth again when they are frightened. It is not the | reality of your brothers or your Father or yourself which frightens |
| Tx:10.89 | you perceive them as ghosts and monsters and dragons. Ask of their | reality from the One who knows it, and He will tell you what they |
| Tx:10.89 | them, and because you are deceived by what you see, you need | reality to dispel your fears. |
| Tx:11.3 | him anything else, and you are assuming the right to attack his | reality by interpreting it as you see fit. |
| Tx:11.4 | react to something else, and your response will be inappropriate to | reality as it is but not to your perception of it. This is poor |
| Tx:11.4 | to reality as it is but not to your perception of it. This is poor | reality testing by definition. There is nothing to prevent you from |
| Tx:11.4 | only this that makes you willing to engage in endless “battles” with | reality in which you deny the reality of the need for healing by |
| Tx:11.4 | to engage in endless “battles” with reality in which you deny the | reality of the need for healing by making it unreal. You would not do |
| Tx:11.4 | You would not do this except for your unwillingness to perceive | reality, which you withhold from yourself. |
| Tx:11.7 | then, is God's plan for salvation. There is but one response to | reality, for reality evokes no conflict at all. There is but one |
| Tx:11.7 | God's plan for salvation. There is but one response to reality, for | reality evokes no conflict at all. There is but one Teacher of |
| Tx:11.7 | for reality evokes no conflict at all. There is but one Teacher of | reality, Who understands what it is. He does not change His Mind |
| Tx:11.7 | Who understands what it is. He does not change His Mind about | reality because reality does not change. Although your |
| Tx:11.7 | what it is. He does not change His Mind about reality because | reality does not change. Although your interpretations of reality are |
| Tx:11.7 | because reality does not change. Although your interpretations of | reality are meaningless in your divided state, His remain |
| Tx:11.9 | fear, having recognized it, you would have taken a step away from | reality, not towards it. Yet we have repeatedly emphasized the need |
| Tx:11.13 | If you would look upon love, which is the world's | reality, how could you do better than to recognize in every defense |
| Tx:11.13 | the underlying appeal for it? And how could you better learn of its | reality than by answering the appeal for it by giving it? The Holy |
| Tx:11.18 | you are afraid of. Only the anticipation will frighten you, for the | reality of nothingness cannot be frightening. Let us not delay this, |
| Tx:11.30 | If only the loving thoughts of God's Son are the world's | reality, the real world must be in his mind. His insane thoughts, |
| Tx:11.30 | is intolerable. Therefore the mind projects the split, not the | reality. Everything you perceive as the outside world is merely your |
| Tx:11.32 | Son. God does love the real world, and those who perceive its | reality cannot see the world of death. For death is not of the real |
| Tx:11.36 | keep. For the ego pursues its goal with fanatic insistence, and its | reality testing, though severely impaired, is completely consistent. |
| Tx:11.53 | cost to you is enormous. For this investment costs you the world's | reality by denying yours and gives you nothing in return. You cannot |
| Tx:11.55 | whatever part of it you look upon with love. This gives it the only | reality it will ever have. Its value is not in itself, but yours is |
| Tx:11.57 | real world, and by this he will learn to reinvest in himself. For | reality is one with the Father and the Son, and the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:11.63 | do is clearly not of this world, for miracles violate every law of | reality as this world judges it. Every law of time and space, of |
| Tx:11.69 | for opposition are true, for they attest only to your decision about | reality, returning to you the message you gave them. Love is |
| Tx:11.70 | You can decide to see it right. What you made of it is not its | reality, for its reality is only what you gave it. You cannot really |
| Tx:11.70 | to see it right. What you made of it is not its reality, for its | reality is only what you gave it. You cannot really give anything but |
| Tx:11.71 | within and are afraid of what you saw. Yet you could not have seen | reality, for the reality of your mind is the loveliest of God's |
| Tx:11.71 | afraid of what you saw. Yet you could not have seen reality, for the | reality of your mind is the loveliest of God's creations. Coming only |
| Tx:11.79 | is visible and what is invisible than it is up to you to decide what | reality is. What can be seen is what the Holy Spirit sees. The |
| Tx:11.79 | is. What can be seen is what the Holy Spirit sees. The definition of | reality is God's, not yours. He created it, and He knows what it is. |
| Tx:11.81 | to remember and that has relinquished the insane desire to control | reality. You who cannot even control yourselves should hardly aspire |
| Tx:11.83 | you who share God's Being with Him could never be content without | reality. What God did not give you has no power over you, and the |
| Tx:11.84 | you see. But take it from the hand of Christ and look upon it. Its | reality will make everything else invisible, for beholding it is |
| Tx:11.84 | corrected, it gives place to knowledge, which is forever the only | reality. The Atonement is but the way back to what was never lost. |
| Tx:12.18 | he is. Only his love is real, and he will be content only with his | reality. |
| Tx:12.24 | are ideas which you made up, and you are bent on demonstrating their | reality to establish yours. If their reality is questioned, you |
| Tx:12.24 | are bent on demonstrating their reality to establish yours. If their | reality is questioned, you believe that yours is. For you believe |
| Tx:12.24 | you believe that yours is. For you believe that attack is your | reality and that your destruction is the final proof that you were |
| Tx:12.27 | you meet now from a past reference point, obscuring their present | reality. In effect, if you follow the ego's dictates, you will react |
| Tx:12.30 | approximation of eternity which this world offers. It is in the | reality of now, without past or future, that the beginning of the |
| Tx:12.35 | yourself first, for what you attack is not in others. Its only | reality is in your own mind, and by attacking others, you are |
| Tx:12.36 | appears to be without. Yet what is within they do not see, for the | reality of their brothers they cannot see. |
| Tx:12.38 | are. You communicate with no one, and you are as isolated from | reality as if you were alone in all the universe. In your madness, |
| Tx:12.38 | if you were alone in all the universe. In your madness, you overlook | reality completely, and you see only your own split mind everywhere |
| Tx:12.40 | you will draw them to yourself, perceiving them as witnesses to your | reality, which you share with God. I am with them as I am with you, |
| Tx:12.45 | To perceive truly is to be aware of all | reality through the awareness of your own. But for this no illusions |
| Tx:12.45 | own. But for this no illusions can rise to meet your sight, for all | reality leaves no room for any error. This means that you perceive a |
| Tx:12.45 | that you perceive a brother only as you see him now. His past has no | reality in the present, and you cannot see it. Your past reactions to |
| Tx:12.45 | as you look upon your brother, you will be unable to perceive the | reality that is now. |
| Tx:12.46 | see it as a dark cloud that shrouds your brothers and conceals their | reality from your sight. |
| Tx:12.48 | and then believe that this is how it is, for to believe that | reality is what you would have it be according to your use for it is |
| Tx:12.63 | false. And what he judges false he does not see. You who would judge | reality cannot see it, for whenever judgment enters, reality has |
| Tx:12.63 | who would judge reality cannot see it, for whenever judgment enters, | reality has slipped away. The out of mind is out of sight because |
| Tx:12.66 | thing is always yours, being the gift of God unto His Son. Your one | reality was given you, and by it God created you as one with Him. |
| Tx:13.3 | be interrupted. The separation is merely a faulty formulation of | reality with no effect at all. The miracle, without a function in |
| Tx:13.3 | miracle, without a function in Heaven, is needful here. Aspects of | reality can still be seen, and they will replace aspects of |
| Tx:13.3 | be seen, and they will replace aspects of unreality. Aspects of | reality can be seen in everything and everywhere. Yet only God can |
| Tx:13.4 | looks on everything with love. Yet even Christ's vision is not His | reality. The golden aspects of reality which spring to light under |
| Tx:13.4 | Yet even Christ's vision is not His reality. The golden aspects of | reality which spring to light under His loving gaze are partial |
| Tx:13.6 | as they were offered unto Him. There is one miracle, as there is one | reality. And every miracle you do contains them all, as every aspect |
| Tx:13.6 | And every miracle you do contains them all, as every aspect of | reality you see blends quietly into the One Reality of God. The only |
| Tx:13.6 | all, as every aspect of reality you see blends quietly into the One | Reality of God. The only miracle that ever was is God's most holy |
| Tx:13.6 | miracle that ever was is God's most holy Son, created in the One | Reality that is his Father. Christ's vision is His gift to you. His |
| Tx:13.7 | offered the Son of God through the Holy Spirit attune you to | reality. The Holy Spirit knows your part in the redemption and who |
| Tx:13.10 | you do not share His witness to it. Nor do you witness unto Him, for | reality is witnessed to as one. God waits your witness to His Son and |
| Tx:13.25 | insane and has no reason. The Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel | reality. If guilt were real, Atonement would not be. The purpose of |
| Tx:13.26 | He has saved you from. What He has saved you from is gone. Give no | reality to guilt, and see no reason for it. The Holy Spirit does what |
| Tx:13.79 | lead you out of insanity. Madness may be your choice, but not your | reality. Never forget the love of God, Who has remembered you. For it |
| Tx:14.2 | Your task is not to make | reality. It is here without your making, but not without you. You who |
| Tx:14.3 | what you have made, you are remembering nothing. Remembrance of | reality is in Him and therefore in you. |
| Tx:14.5 | The only part of your mind that has | reality is the part which links you still with God. Would you have |
| Tx:14.26 | Uncertainty brought to certainty does not retain any conviction of | reality. |
| Tx:14.27 | their separation seems to keep them both alive and equal in their | reality. Their joining thus becomes the source of fear, for if they |
| Tx:14.35 | Unite with what you are. You cannot join with anything except | reality. God's glory and His Son's belong to you in truth. They have |
| Tx:14.39 | because it is not true. Different realities are meaningless, for | reality must be one. It cannot change with time or mood or chance. |
| Tx:14.39 | it real. This cannot be undone. Undoing is for unreality. And this | reality will do for you. |
| Tx:14.47 | In Heaven | reality is shared and not reflected. By sharing its reflection here, |
| Tx:14.47 | on him, and he can no longer be satisfied with anything but his own | reality. You on earth have no conception of limitlessness, for the |
| Tx:15.46 | is to deny the oneness of the Father and his Son and thus to attack | reality. |
| Tx:15.47 | You cannot love parts of | reality and understand what love means. If you would love unlike to |
| Tx:15.51 | it prefers different parts of another aspect. Thus does it assemble | reality to its own capricious liking, offering for your seeking a |
| Tx:15.51 | or earth that it resembles, and so however much you seek for its | reality, you cannot find it because it is not real. |
| Tx:15.62 | that has not always been. Only the veil that has been drawn across | reality is lifted. Nothing has changed. Yet the awareness of |
| Tx:15.91 | instant. [For you would place no limits on your union with Him.] The | reality of this relationship becomes the only truth that you could |
| Tx:15.105 | As long as you perceive the body as your | reality, so long will you perceive yourself as lonely and deprived. |
| Tx:15.105 | this yourselves when the basis of your attempts is the belief in the | reality of the deprivation? For deprivation breeds attack, being the |
| Tx:16.13 | on your behalf. It is impossible to convince you of the | reality of what has clearly been accomplished through your |
| Tx:16.15 | How can faith in | reality be yours while you are bent on making it unreal? And are you |
| Tx:16.15 | do not turn away from all the witnesses that He has given you to His | reality. |
| Tx:16.18 | to accept the joyful tidings that disaster is not real and that | reality is not disaster. |
| Tx:16.19 | Reality is safe and sure and wholly kind to everyone and everything. | |
| Tx:16.31 | war to peace. For the illusion of love will never satisfy, but its | reality, which awaits you on the other side, will give you everything. |
| Tx:16.35 | peace will never come from the illusion of love, but only from its | reality. |
| Tx:16.51 | in strict accordance with the ego's goals, is to destroy | reality and substitute illusion. For the ego is itself an illusion, |
| Tx:16.58 | confronted you and also the only one. You will cross the bridge into | reality simply because you will recognize that God is on the other |
| Tx:16.64 | itself is nothing more than a transition in your perspective of | reality. On this side, everything you see is grossly distorted and |
| Tx:16.65 | Fear not that you will be abruptly lifted up and hurled into | reality. Time is kind, and if you use it for reality, it will keep |
| Tx:16.65 | up and hurled into reality. Time is kind, and if you use it for | reality, it will keep gentle pace with you in your transition. The |
| Tx:16.66 | that really knows what you are. You have allowed the Thought of your | reality to enter your minds, and because you invited it, it will |
| Tx:16.77 | is truly given and will be truly received. For God's gifts have no | reality apart from your receiving them. Your receiving completes His |
| Tx:16.78 | There is nothing you can hold against | reality. All that must be forgiven are the illusions you have held |
| Tx:16.78 | are the illusions you have held against your brothers. Their | reality has no past, and only illusions can be forgiven. God holds |
| Tx:16.80 | with Him is to accept relationships as real and through their | reality to give over all illusions for the reality of your |
| Tx:16.80 | as real and through their reality to give over all illusions for the | reality of your relationship with God. Praise be to your relationship |
| Tx:17.1 | only in illusions, and all his “sins” are but his own imagining. His | reality is forever sinless. He need not be forgiven, but awakened. In |
| Tx:17.1 | is so, for dreams are what they are because of their illusion of | reality. Only in waking is the full release from them, for only then |
| Tx:17.1 | then does it become perfectly apparent that they had no effect on | reality at all and did not change it. Fantasies change reality. That |
| Tx:17.1 | no effect on reality at all and did not change it. Fantasies change | reality. That is their purpose. They cannot do so in reality, but |
| Tx:17.1 | change reality. That is their purpose. They cannot do so in | reality, but they can do so in the mind that would have reality |
| Tx:17.1 | do so in reality, but they can do so in the mind that would have | reality different. |
| Tx:17.2 | It is, then, only your wish to change | reality that is fearful, because by your wish you think you have |
| Tx:17.3 | that heals all pain arises from your wish to retain some aspects of | reality for fantasy. If you but realized what this must do to your |
| Tx:17.3 | Unless you give it back, it is inevitable that your perspective on | reality be warped and uncorrected. |
| Tx:17.4 | in miracles remain with you. For you have established this order in | reality by giving some of it to one teacher and some to another. And |
| Tx:17.4 | truth is to destroy it by rendering it meaningless. Orders of | reality is a perspective without understanding, a frame of reference |
| Tx:17.4 | is a perspective without understanding, a frame of reference for | reality to which it cannot really be compared at all. |
| Tx:17.5 | Reserve not one idea aside from truth, or you establish orders of | reality which must imprison you. There is no order in reality because |
| Tx:17.5 | orders of reality which must imprison you. There is no order in | reality because everything there is true. |
| Tx:17.14 | For the shadow figures you would make immortal are “enemies” of | reality. Be willing to forgive the Son of God for what he did not do. |
| Tx:17.18 | which have been dreamed of but have not been made at all. Where no | reality has entered, there is nothing to intrude upon the dream of |
| Tx:17.18 | upon the dream of happiness. Yet consider what this means—the more | reality that enters into the unholy relationship, the less satisfying |
| Tx:17.19 | The “ideal” of the unholy relationship thus becomes one in which the | reality of the other does not enter at all to “spoil” the dream. And |
| Tx:17.19 | into relationships whose only purpose is separation from | reality? What forgiveness is enables Him to do so. |
| Tx:17.20 | with now. This continuity extends the present by increasing its | reality and its value in your perception of it. In these loving |
| Tx:17.24 | truth the past could ever offer to the present as witnesses for its | reality, while what is kept but witnesses to the reality of dreams. |
| Tx:17.24 | witnesses for its reality, while what is kept but witnesses to the | reality of dreams. |
| Tx:17.25 | the other go. Which one you choose you will endow with beauty and | reality because the choice depends on which you value more. The spark |
| Tx:17.26 | Let my relationship to you be real to you, and let me bring | reality to your perception of your brothers. They were not created to |
| Tx:17.41 | As you look on this, you realize that it is not a picture but a | reality. This is no figured representation of a thought system, but |
| Tx:17.42 | is His. It shines in every part of Him as in the whole. The whole | reality of your relationship with Him lies in our relationship to one |
| Tx:17.67 | Your faith must grow to meet the goal that has been set. The goal's | reality will call this forth, for you will see that peace and faith |
| Tx:17.69 | go hand in hand, so must its faith go everywhere with it. The goal's | reality will call forth and accomplish every miracle needed for its |
| Tx:17.76 | continuous means for establishing His purpose and demonstrating its | reality. What has been demonstrated has called for faith and has been |
| Tx:17.77 | strain of refusing to give faith to truth and see its evident | reality. |
| Tx:18.5 | You have expressed surprise at hearing how very different is | reality from what you see. You do not realize the magnitude of that |
| Tx:18.6 | Invest it not with guilt, for guilt implies it was accomplished in | reality. And above all, be not afraid of it. When you seem to see |
| Tx:18.9 | substituted, and sharing and substituting have nothing in common in | reality. Within yourselves you love each other with a perfect love. |
| Tx:18.9 | no separation, and no substitute can keep you from each other. Your | reality was God's creation and has no substitute. |
| Tx:18.10 | peace and gratitude and accept His gift as our most holy and perfect | reality, which we share in Him. |
| Tx:18.15 | You do not take them seriously on awaking because the fact that | reality is so outrageously violated in them becomes apparent. Yet |
| Tx:18.15 | provide striking examples both of the ego's inability to tolerate | reality and your willingness to change reality on its behalf. |
| Tx:18.15 | ego's inability to tolerate reality and your willingness to change | reality on its behalf. |
| Tx:18.17 | by the illusion of terror. For the dream of your ability to control | reality by substituting a world which you prefer is terrifying. Your |
| Tx:18.17 | a world which you prefer is terrifying. Your attempts to blot out | reality are very fearful, but this you are not willing to accept. And |
| Tx:18.17 | are not willing to accept. And so you substitute the fantasy that | reality is fearful, not what you would do to it. And thus is guilt |
| Tx:18.19 | is all. Their content is the same. They are your protest against | reality and your fixed and insane idea that you can change it. In |
| Tx:18.23 | in the Will of God. The dream of waking is easily transferred to its | reality. For this dream comes from your will joined with the Will of |
| Tx:18.24 | You who have spent your lives in bringing truth to illusion, | reality to fantasy, have walked the way of dreams. For you have gone |
| Tx:18.40 | happened. And that is why the past has gone. It never happened in | reality. Only in your minds, which thought it did, is its undoing |
| Tx:18.57 | Son be separated from himself except in illusions. This is not his | reality, though he believes it is. Yet this could only be if God were |
| Tx:18.57 | had to create different things and to establish different orders of | reality, only some of which were love. Yet love must be forever like |
| Tx:18.59 | it. You have escaped from fear to peace, asking no questions of | reality but merely accepting it. You have accepted this instead of |
| Tx:18.89 | act as it directs as long as you believe that guilt is real. For the | reality of guilt is the illusion which seems to make it heavy and |
| Tx:19.6 | it is sought through the body, thought of as a means for seeking out | reality through attack, while the other part would heal and therefore |
| Tx:19.6 | and not the mind. For this divided goal has given both an equal | reality, which could be possible only if the mind is limited to the |
| Tx:19.18 | arrogance which the idea of error lacks. To sin would be to violate | reality and to succeed. Sin is the proclamation that attack is real |
| Tx:19.19 | cannot sin. There is nothing he can do that would really change his | reality in any way nor make him really guilty. That is what sin would |
| Tx:19.20 | is perceived as holiness. And it is this doctrine which replaces the | reality of the Son of God as his Father created him and willed that |
| Tx:19.23 | be and what he is. To the ego, this is no mistake. For this is its | reality; this is the “truth” from which escape will always be |
| Tx:19.32 | While you believe that your | reality or your brother's is bounded by a body, you will believe in |
| Tx:19.52 | savage messengers into the world to feast upon it and to prey upon | reality. For they will bring you word of bones and skin and flesh. |
| Tx:20.16 | therefore a distortion and calls upon defenses to uphold it against | reality. Knowledge requires no adjustment and in fact is lost if any |
| Tx:20.49 | protected, yet hiding nothing. Here the unholy relationship escapes | reality and seeks for crumbs to keep itself alive. Here it would drag |
| Tx:20.52 | and bodies made to house the mad idea and give it the illusion of | reality. And so it seemed to have a home that held together for a |
| Tx:20.52 | in time and vanished. For what could house this mad idea against | reality but for an instant? |
| Tx:20.54 | reflects the true relationship the Son of God has with his Father in | reality. The Holy Spirit rests within it in the certainty it will |
| Tx:20.63 | is here that the illusions you hold about him are not held up to his | reality. Here are illusions and reality kept separated. Here are |
| Tx:20.63 | about him are not held up to his reality. Here are illusions and | reality kept separated. Here are illusions never brought to truth and |
| Tx:20.63 | and always hidden from it. And here in darkness is your brother's | reality imagined as a body, in unholy relationships with other |
| Tx:20.65 | see the body because it cannot look on sin. And thus it leads you to | reality. Your holy brother, sight of whom is your release, is no |
| Tx:20.75 | projected from within, adjusts to sin and seems to witness to its | reality. It still is true that nothing is without. Yet upon nothing |
| Tx:20.76 | awareness. They step away from sin, reminding you that it is not | reality which frightens you and that the errors which you made can be |
| Tx:21.22 | This other will, which seems to tell you what must happen, you gave | reality. And what would show you otherwise must therefore seem |
| Tx:21.24 | seem real and possible. Faith in the unreal leads to adjustments of | reality to make it fit the goal of madness. The goal of sin induces |
| Tx:21.24 | to justify its purpose. What you desire you will see. And if its | reality is false, you will uphold it by not realizing all the |
| Tx:21.28 | and as one. See what “proves” otherwise, and you deny your whole | reality. But grant that everything which seems to stand between you, |
| Tx:21.29 | relationships have sin as their goal. For they are bargains with | reality, toward which the seeming union is adjusted. Forget not this |
| Tx:21.49 | in what you are. Perception is a witness but to this and never to | reality. Yet it can show you the conditions in which awareness of |
| Tx:21.49 | to reality. Yet it can show you the conditions in which awareness of | reality is possible or those where it could never be. |
| Tx:21.50 | Reality needs no cooperation from you to be itself. But your | |
| Tx:21.50 | be your faith. But never believe because it is your faith it makes | reality. |
| Tx:21.69 | The power that you have over the Son of God is not a threat to his | reality. It but attests to it. Where could his freedom lie but in |
| Tx:22.3 | Therefore, he looks on nothing he would take. He denies not his own | reality, because it is the truth. Just under Heaven does he stand, |
| Tx:22.35 | deceive. You can change form because it is not true. It could not be | reality, because it can be changed. Reason will tell you that, if |
| Tx:22.35 | because it can be changed. Reason will tell you that, if form is not | reality, it must be an illusion and is not there to see. And if you |
| Tx:22.45 | in any way. Merely by letting reason tell you that they contradict | reality. They go against what must be true. The opposition comes from |
| Tx:22.45 | go against what must be true. The opposition comes from them and not | reality. Reality opposes nothing. What merely is needs no defense and |
| Tx:22.45 | what must be true. The opposition comes from them and not reality. | Reality opposes nothing. What merely is needs no defense and offers |
| Tx:22.62 | so because the universe is one. You would not choose attack on its | reality if it were not essential to attack to see it [separate from |
| Tx:23.12 | they remain part of what made them. Madness holds out no menace to | reality and has no influence upon it. Illusions cannot triumph over |
| Tx:23.12 | triumph over truth, nor can they threaten it in any way. And the | reality which they deny is not a part of them. |
| Tx:23.14 | for it is the birth of fear. Yet what is born of nothing cannot win | reality through battle. Why would you fill your world with conflicts |
| Tx:23.24 | Here is a principle which would define what the Creator of | reality must be; what He must think and what He must believe; and how |
| Tx:23.38 | form. And lack of faith in love in any form attests to chaos as | reality. |
| Tx:24.3 | that you can choose for love. Your choosing it has given it all the | reality it seems to have. |
| Tx:24.4 | presence nor their terrible results. All that can be denied is their | reality, but not their outcome. |
| Tx:24.5 | in specialness. This takes many forms but always clashes with the | reality of God's creation and with the grandeur which He gave His |
| Tx:24.5 | and not the same. And difference of any kind imposes orders of | reality and a need to judge that cannot be escaped. |
| Tx:24.32 | awaken them, and they curse God because He did not make their dream | reality. Curse God and die, but not by Him Who made not death, but |
| Tx:24.38 | is false proclaims his sins as real. If he is sinful, then is your | reality not real but just a dream of specialness which lasts an |
| Tx:24.39 | Only this is certain in this shifting world which has no meaning in | reality: when peace is not with you entirely and when you suffer pain |
| Tx:24.50 | a Son without a Father. There could be no universe and no | reality. For what God wills is whole and part of Him because His Will |
| Tx:24.67 | it what it is for you. It has no meaning of itself, yet you can give | reality to it according to the purpose which you serve. Here you are |
| Tx:24.70 | with which you listened to the sounds it makes. It proves its own | reality to you. |
| Tx:24.71 | so does the body testify to the idea that made it and speak for its | reality and truth. |
| Tx:24.72 | And what you see will serve that purpose well and prove its own | reality to you. |
| Tx:26.6 | You can lose sight of oneness, but can not make sacrifice of its | reality. Nor can you lose what you would sacrifice nor keep the Holy |
| Tx:26.8 | world would lay upon him. Could it be that you could make his sins | reality and sacrifice his Father's Will for him? |
| Tx:26.18 | could it be, when all He knows is one? He knows of one creation, one | reality, one truth, and but one Son. Nothing conflicts with oneness. |
| Tx:26.20 | yet there is a contradiction here in that the words imply a limited | reality, a partial truth, a segment of the universe made true. This |
| Tx:26.24 | in the relinquishment of an illusion recognized as such. Where all | reality has been withdrawn from what was never true, can it be hard |
| Tx:26.44 | And it is real to you. It is not nothing and through its perceived | reality has entered all the world of sick illusions. All belief in |
| Tx:26.49 | world, but not a part of it. For it is real and dwells where all | reality must be. Ideas leave not their source, and their effects but |
| Tx:26.51 | all. All that a hierarchy of illusions can show is preference, not | reality. What relevance has preference to the truth? Illusions are |
| Tx:26.51 | Illusions are illusions and are false. Your preference gives them no | reality. Not one is true in any way, and all must yield with equal |
| Tx:26.52 | Himself. Thus has He lost His Mind, proclaiming sin has taken His | reality from Him, and brought His love at last to vengeance's heels. |
| Tx:27.30 | can not be interference. What can interfere with the awareness of | reality is the belief that there is something there. |
| Tx:27.33 | nothingness cannot be pictured, so there is no symbol for totality. | Reality is ultimately known without a form, unpictured and unseen. |
| Tx:27.56 | names you gave it to use when you call forth the witnesses to its | reality. You cannot choose among them which are real, for any one you |
| Tx:27.57 | to the witnesses by other names which speak in other ways for its | reality. He knows it is not real. For nothing could contain what you |
| Tx:27.68 | one who makes them does not see himself as making them, and their | reality does not depend on him. Whatever cause they have is something |
| Tx:27.68 | what he sees is separate from his mind. He cannot doubt his dreams' | reality because he does not see the part he plays in making them and |
| Tx:27.70 | life or death, waking or sleeping, peace or war, your dreams or your | reality? Yet if the choice is really given you, then you must see the |
| Tx:27.71 | world, with different dreams about the truth in you. The gap between | reality and dreams lies not between the dreaming of the world and |
| Tx:27.72 | is the cause of suffering, the space between your dreams and your | reality. The little gap you do not even see, the birthplace of |
| Tx:27.73 | So fearful is the dream, so seeming real, he could not waken to | reality without the sweat of terror and a scream of mortal fear |
| Tx:28.15 | loss? What better way to close the little gap between illusions and | reality than to allow the memory of God to flow across it, making it |
| Tx:28.39 | not in his illusion of himself, for your identity depends on his | reality. Think rather of him as a mind in which illusions still |
| Tx:28.39 | nor is his body, “hero” of the dream, your brother. It is his | reality that is your brother, as is yours to him. Your mind and his |
| Tx:28.41 | meet you in the gap between you, or you must believe that it is your | reality as well as his. You cannot do his part, but this you do when |
| Tx:28.52 | Creation proves | reality because it shares the function all creation shares. It is not |
| Tx:28.52 | wood, a thread or two perhaps, all put together to attest its truth. | Reality does not depend on this. There is no gap which separates the |
| Tx:29.20 | not because he thinks he is a body. For beyond his dreams is his | reality. But he must learn he is a savior first, before he can |
| Tx:29.21 | Deny Him not His witness in the dream His Son prefers to his | reality. He must be savior from the dream he made, that he be free of |
| Tx:29.50 | is but the fear of loss of idols. It is not the fear of loss of your | reality. But you have made of your reality an idol which you must |
| Tx:29.50 | is not the fear of loss of your reality. But you have made of your | reality an idol which you must protect against the light of truth. |
| Tx:29.53 | Let not their form deceive you. Idols are but substitutes for your | reality. In some way, you believe they will complete your little self |
| Tx:29.59 | and still attempts to seek for one that yet might offer him a gift | reality does not contain. Each worshiper of idols harbors hope his |
| Tx:29.65 | he fears his thoughts and gives them to the toys instead. And their | reality becomes his own because they seem to save him from his |
| Tx:30.47 | near, it rests in certainty and perfect peace. Here is your one | reality kept safe, completely unaware of all the world that worships |
| Tx:30.48 | could the Thought God holds of you exist but where you are? Is your | reality a thing apart from you and in a world which your reality |
| Tx:30.48 | Is your reality a thing apart from you and in a world which your | reality knows nothing of? Outside you there is no eternal sky, no |
| Tx:30.48 | of? Outside you there is no eternal sky, no changeless star, and no | reality. The mind of Heaven's Son in Heaven is, for there the mind of |
| Tx:30.48 | of more than one. An idol or the Thought God holds of you is your | reality. Forget not, then, that idols must keep hidden what you are, |
| Tx:30.48 | changed. But you, the holy Son of God Himself, are unaware of your | reality. |
| Tx:30.52 | Reality observes the laws of God, and not the rules you set. It is | |
| Tx:30.53 | Appearances deceive because they are appearances and not | reality. Dwell not on them in any form. They but obscure reality, and |
| Tx:30.53 | and not reality. Dwell not on them in any form. They but obscure | reality, and they bring fear because they hide the truth. Do not |
| Tx:30.55 | to overlook what is not there, and not to look upon the unreal as | reality. You are but asked to let your will be done and seek no |
| Tx:30.56 | indeed salvation asks so little, not so much. It asks for nothing in | reality. And even in illusions it but asks forgiveness be the |
| Tx:30.63 | they want. Yet has their path been surely set away from idols toward | reality. For when they joined their hands, it was Christ's hand they |
| Tx:30.89 | Appearances deceive but can be changed. | Reality is changeless. It does not deceive at all, and if you fail to |
| Tx:30.89 | and yet you thought it real before, and now you think it real again. | Reality is thus reduced to form and capable of change. Reality is |
| Tx:30.89 | real again. Reality is thus reduced to form and capable of change. | Reality is changeless. It is this that makes it real and keeps it |
| Tx:30.90 | because they are appearances and cannot have the changelessness | reality entails. The miracle attests salvation from appearances by |
| Tx:30.90 | It is obscured by changing views of him which you perceive as his | reality. The happy dream about him takes the form of the appearance |
| Tx:30.90 | This demonstrates that it was never real and could not stem from his | reality. For that is changeless and has no effects which anything in |
| Tx:30.91 | wish to make illusions real? It does not seem to be the wish that no | reality be so. Yet it is an assertion that some forms of idols have a |
| Tx:30.91 | makes them harder to resist than those you would not want to have | reality. Temptation, then, is nothing more than this—a prayer the |
| Tx:30.91 | not some dreams but keep their unreality obscure and give to them | reality instead. And Heaven gives no answer to the prayer, nor can a |
| Tx:30.92 | Reality is changeless. Miracles but show what you have interposed | |
| Tx:30.92 | is changeless. Miracles but show what you have interposed between | reality and your awareness is unreal and does not interfere at all. |
| Tx:30.92 | to bestow His gifts upon God's Son. When he is tempted, he denies | reality. And he becomes the willing slave of what he chose instead. |
| Tx:30.93 | Because | reality is changeless is a miracle already there to heal all things |
| Tx:31.27 | Why are they real in him if you did not believe that they are your | reality? And why do you attack them everywhere, except you hate |
| Tx:31.42 | could you be made to travel on it, walking there without your own | reality at one with you? Forgive yourself your madness and forget all |
| Tx:31.43 | world is built upon a concept of the self adjusted to the world's | reality. It fits it well. For this an image is that suits a world of |
| Tx:31.44 | to yourself at all. It is an idol, made to take the place of your | reality as Son of God. The concept of the self the world would teach |
| Tx:31.62 | If you choose flesh, you never will escape the body as your own | reality, for you have chosen that you want it so. But choose the |
| W1:10.2 | with the things around you. The emphasis is now on the lack of | reality of what you think you think. |
| W1:14.1 | exists as He created it. The world you see has nothing to do with | reality. It is of your own making, and it does not exist. |
| W1:14.4 | your mind. Name each one as it occurs to you, and then deny its | reality. God did not create it, and so it is not real. Say, for |
| W1:17.1 | so, perception would have no cause and would itself be the cause of | reality. In view of its highly variable nature, this is hardly likely. |
| W1:29.4 | alien nature. Remember that any order you impose is equally alien to | reality. |
| W1:35.5 | about yourself does not matter. Illusions have no direction in | reality. They are merely not true. |
| W1:41.1 | of the world.” But the one thing they do not do is to question the | reality of the problem. Yet its effects cannot be cured because the |
| W1:41.6 | all these things. You are trying to leave appearances and approach | reality. |
| W1:49.2 | other part is a wild illusion, frantic and distraught, but without | reality of any kind. Try today not to listen to it. Try to identify |
| W1:51.3 | this that I see. This is not vision. It is merely an illusion of | reality, because my judgments have been made quite apart from |
| W1:51.3 | of reality, because my judgments have been made quite apart from | reality. I am willing to recognize the lack of validity in my |
| W1:52.2 | [6] I am upset because I see what is not there. | Reality is never frightening. It is impossible that it could upset |
| W1:52.2 | is never frightening. It is impossible that it could upset me. | Reality brings only perfect peace. When I am upset, it is always |
| W1:52.2 | perfect peace. When I am upset, it is always because I have replaced | reality with illusions which I made up. The illusions are upsetting |
| W1:52.2 | I made up. The illusions are upsetting because I have given them | reality and thus regard reality as an illusion. Nothing in God's |
| W1:52.2 | are upsetting because I have given them reality and thus regard | reality as an illusion. Nothing in God's creation is affected in any |
| W1:53.2 | What is producing this world is insane, and so is what it produces. | Reality is not insane, and I have real thoughts as well as insane |
| W1:53.4 | hope. But such a world is not real. I have given it the illusion of | reality, and have suffered from my belief in it. Now I choose to |
| W1:53.4 | in it. Now I choose to withdraw this belief and place my trust in | reality. In choosing this, I will escape all the effects of the world |
| W1:67.2 | the truth. In the longer practice period, we will think about your | reality and its wholly unchanged and unchangeable nature. We will |
| W1:69.5 | brilliant light hidden by the clouds. The clouds seem to be the only | reality. They seem to be all there is to see. Therefore you do not |
| W1:72.6 | The body's apparent | reality makes this view of God quite convincing. In fact, if the body |
| W1:73.2 | in grievances and stand between your awareness and your brothers' | reality. Beholding them, you do not know your brothers nor your Self. |
| W1:74.11 | way, close your eyes and try to experience the peace to which your | reality entitles you. Sink into it, and feel it closing around you. |
| W1:78.8 | Then let us ask of Him Who knows this Son of God in his | reality and truth that we may look on him a different way and see our |
| W1:79.8 | All that is necessary is to entertain some doubt about the | reality of our version of what our problems are. We are trying to |
| W1:84.2 | loss, and I cannot die. I am not a body. I would recognize my | reality today. I will worship no idols nor raise my own self-concepts |
| W1:91.2 | use it because its presence is unknown to you. And the seeming | reality of the darkness makes the idea of light meaningless. |
| W1:91.3 | body's eyes can see. You do not doubt the images they show you are | reality. Your faith lies in the darkness, not the light. |
| W1:91.11 | I am not doubtful, but certain. I am not an illusion, but a | reality. I cannot see in darkness, but in light. |
| W1:94.5 | you. This is the Self that never sinned nor made an image to replace | reality. This is the Self which never left its home in God to walk |
| W1:96.4 | of you. If you are Spirit, then the body must be meaningless to your | reality. |
| W1:97.3 | Today we try to bring | reality still closer to your mind. Each time you practice, awareness |
| W1:98.3 | not appeal to magic nor invent escapes from fancied threats without | reality. They rest in quiet certainty that they will do what it is |
| W1:103.2 | minds that think what they have made is real. These images, with no | reality in truth, bear witness to the fear of God, forgetting being |
| W1:110.1 | would mean that you have made no changes in yourself which have | reality, nor changed the universe so that what God created was |
| W1:124.7 | at one with Him, so that the world may share our recognition of | reality. In our experience the world is freed; as we deny our |
| W1:127.8 | wherever you give up a false belief, a dark illusion of your own | reality and what love means. He will shine through your idle thoughts |
| W1:130.2 | hate and love at once? Who can desire what he does not want to have | reality? And who can choose to see a world of which he is afraid? |
| W1:132.17 | was. For I am real because the world is not, and I would know my own | reality. |
| W1:132.21 | I loose the world from all I thought it was and choose my own | reality instead. |
| W1:134.13 | which it reflects. It is as alien to the world as is your own | reality. And yet it joins your mind with the reality in you. |
| W1:134.13 | world as is your own reality. And yet it joins your mind with the | reality in you. |
| W1:134.14 | the time of joining be no more delayed. For we would meet with our | reality in freedom and in peace. Our practicing becomes the footsteps |
| W1:134.14 | up the way for all our brothers, who will follow us to the | reality we share with them. |
| W1:135.1 | And herein lies the folly of defense—it gives illusions full | reality and then attempts to handle them as real. It adds illusions |
| W1:135.15 | in some forms which these self-deceptions take, for the denial of | reality is very obvious. Yet planning is not often recognized as a |
| W1:135.18 | disregard what you consider incompatible with your beliefs of your | reality. Yet what remains is meaningless indeed. For it is your |
| W1:135.18 | your reality. Yet what remains is meaningless indeed. For it is your | reality which is the “threat” that your defenses would attack, |
| W1:135.29 | because the Son of God needs no defense against the truth of his | reality. |
| W1:136.2 | for self-deception. And like all the rest, its purpose is to hide | reality, attack it, change it, render it inept, distort it, twist it, |
| W1:137.6 | than the mind. And love becomes a dream, while fear remains the one | reality that can be seen and justified and fully understood. |
| W1:139.9 | he knows not what he is. Today accept Atonement, not to change | reality, but merely to accept the truth about yourself and go your |
| W1:140.2 | end the dream. What difference does the content of a dream make in | reality? One either sleeps or wakens. There is nothing in between. |
| W1:140.7 | differ from another but in attributes that have no substance, no | reality, no core, and nothing that is truly different? |
| W1:151.3 | in what your eyes and ears report. You think your fingers touch | reality and close upon the truth. This is awareness which you |
| W1:151.5 | Yet underneath remains the hidden doubt that what it shows you as | reality with such conviction it does not believe. It is itself alone |
| W1:151.9 | to your beautiful creation and the Mind Whose thought created your | reality. What can the body mean to Him Who knows the glory of the |
| W1:152.1 | Here is your world, complete in all details. Here is its whole | reality for you. And it is only here salvation is. |
| W1:152.6 | of insanity, to think He made a world where such things seem to have | reality. He is not mad. Yet only madness makes a world like this. |
| W1:154.4 | it and of His lasting union with itself. So is its Self the one | reality in which its will and that of God are joined. |
| W1:155.2 | seeking for a place where they can be illusions and avoid their own | reality. Yet when they find their own reality is even here, then they |
| W1:155.2 | illusions and avoid their own reality. Yet when they find their own | reality is even here, then they step back and let it lead the way. |
| W1:155.4 | Many have chosen to renounce the world while still believing its | reality, and they have suffered from a sense of loss and have not |
| W1:160.7 | No stranger can be interposed between His knowledge and His Son's | reality. He does not know of strangers. He is certain of His Son. |
| W1:161.9 | cherishes, the angels love, and God created perfect. This is his | reality. And in Christ's vision is his loveliness reflected in a form |
| W1:166.7 | This is your chosen self, the one you made as a replacement for | reality. This is the self you savagely defend against all reason, |
| W1:183.9 | Repeat His Name, and you acknowledge Him as sole Creator of | reality. And you acknowledge also that His Son is part of Him, |
| W1:184.3 | to have perception be. The nameless things were given names and thus | reality was given them as well. For what is named is given meaning |
| W1:184.4 | This is the way | reality is made by partial vision, purposefully set against the given |
| W1:184.6 | What denies that it is true is but illusion, for it is the ultimate | reality. To question it is madness; to accept its presence is the |
| W1:184.11 | which delineate the world of darkness. Yet accept them not as your | reality. The Holy Spirit uses all of them, but He does not forget |
| W1:184.13 | to supplement the word. But first you must accept One Name for all | reality, and realize the many names you gave its aspects have |
| W1:184.15 | names is but a shadow we have tried to cast across Your Own | Reality. And we are glad and thankful we were wrong. All our mistakes |
| W1:189.8 | way to reach Him is merely to let Him be. For in that way is your | reality acclaimed as well. |
| W1:190.10 | contains all of salvation's power. It is this: pain is illusion; joy | reality. Pain is but sleep; joy is awakening. Pain is deception; joy |
| W1:200.7 | as His. What could he hope to find in such a world? It cannot have | reality because it never was created. Is it here that he would seek |
| W1:200.9 | is to what appears to be a world apart from God where bodies have | reality. |
| W2:WF.3 | accomplish it as well. It sets about its furious attempts to smash | reality, without concern for anything that would appear to pose a |
| W2:WF.4 | hand, is still and quietly does nothing. It offends no aspect of | reality nor seeks to twist it to appearance that it likes. It merely |
| W2:224.1 | is no gift but this that can be either given or received. This is | reality, and only this. This is illusion's end. It is the Truth. |
| W2:227.1 | And I am free because I was mistaken and did not affect my own | reality at all by my illusions. Now I give them up and lay them down |
| W2:248.1 | is in pain is but illusion in my mind. What dies was never living in | reality and did but mock the truth about myself. Now I disown |
| W2:WIS.3 | thoughts which are untrue. They are the “proof” that what has no | reality is real. Sin “proves” God's Son is evil; timelessness must |
| W2:268.2 | be blasphemous today nor let our ears attend to lying tongues. Only | reality is free of pain. Only reality is free of loss. Only reality |
| W2:268.2 | our ears attend to lying tongues. Only reality is free of pain. Only | reality is free of loss. Only reality is wholly safe. And it is only |
| W2:268.2 | Only reality is free of pain. Only reality is free of loss. Only | reality is wholly safe. And it is only this we seek today. |
| W2:WIC.3 | the Heaven of your holy mind. This is the only part of you that has | reality in truth. The rest is dreams. Yet will these dreams be given |
| W2:278.1 | in any way, I do not know my Father or my Self. And I am lost to all | reality. For truth is free, and what is bound is not a part of truth. |
| W2:279.1 | to be in prison and awaits a future freedom if it be at all. Yet in | reality his dreams are gone, with truth established in their place. |
| W2:WIHS.1 | between illusions and the truth. As He must bridge the gap between | reality and dreams, perception leads to knowledge through the grace |
| W2:282.1 | the Self Whom God created as the Son He loves and Who remains my one | Reality. |
| W2:298.1 | my love to be accepted without fear. And thus am I restored to my | reality at last. All that intruded on my holy sight forgiveness takes |
| W2:322.2 | me, I can give up nothing You gave me. What You did not give has no | reality. What loss can I anticipate except the loss of fear and the |
| W2:WIE.4 | To know | Reality is not to see the ego and its thoughts, its works, its acts, |
| W2:333.1 | It must be seen exactly as it is, where it is thought to be, in the | reality which has been given it, and with the purpose that the mind |
| W2:350.2 | For as we remember Him, His Son will be restored to us in the | Reality of Love. |
| W2:FL.4 | remember Him on earth, as it is given us to be His own completion in | reality. So let us not forget our goal is shared. For it is that |
| W2:E.3 | for God and for your Self when you retire from the world, to seek | Reality instead. He will direct your efforts, telling you exactly |
| M:2.2 | for the Will of God is entirely apart from time. So is all | reality, being of Him. The instant the idea of separation entered the |

| Tx:8.86 | You have surely begun to | realize that this is a very practical course which means exactly what |
| Tx:9.41 | yourself in your minds, and they cannot both be true. You do not yet | realize how completely different these evaluations are, because you |
| Tx:9.61 | being in God, you encompass everything. Believe this, and you will | realize how much is up to you. When anything threatens your peace of |
| Tx:9.71 | always constitutes an attack on truth and truth is God, you will | realize why this is always fearful. If you further recognize that you |
| Tx:9.83 | You do not | realize how much you listen to your gods and how vigilant you are on |
| Tx:9.93 | afraid of blasphemy, but they do not know what it means. They do not | realize that to deny God is to deny their own identity, and in this |
| Tx:9.102 | You do not | realize how much you have denied yourself, and how much God in His |
| Tx:10.1 | If you will examine the evidence on both sides fairly, you will | realize that this must be true. Neither God nor the ego proposes a |
| Tx:10.12 | Yet what you will you do not know. This is not strange when you | realize that to deny is to “not know.” God's Will is that you are His |
| Tx:10.34 | a strong tendency to harbor it within. It is difficult at first to | realize that this is exactly the same thing, for there is no |
| Tx:10.39 | because together we have the lamp that will dispel it, and since you | realize you do not want it, you must be ready. Let us be very calm in |
| Tx:10.47 | must learn to recognize is that the last thing the ego wishes you to | realize is that you are afraid of it. For if the ego gives rise to |

| Tx:11.31 | you would have to perceive it this way. That is why you must | realize that your hatred is in your mind and not outside it before |

| Tx:11.88 | world is a picture of the crucifixion of God's Son. And until you | realize that God's Son cannot be crucified, this is the world you |
| Tx:11.88 | be crucified, this is the world you will see. Yet you will not | realize this until you accept the eternal fact that God's Son is not |
| Tx:11.94 | When you have accepted the Atonement for yourselves, you will | realize that there is no guilt in God's Son. And only as you look |

| Tx:12.7 | not learning the course, you are protecting yourself. And you do not | realize that it is only your guiltlessness which can protect you. |
| Tx:12.10 | may wonder why it is so crucial that you look upon your hatred and | realize its full extent. You may also think that it would be easy |
| Tx:12.10 | interposed between yourself and the Atonement, which you do not yet | realize. We have said that no one will countenance fear if he |
| Tx:12.12 | protected it because you do not want the separation healed, and you | realize that, by removing the dark cloud that obscures it, your love |
| Tx:13.7 | individual concern. You, who are part of it and all of it, need only | realize that it is of the Father, not of you. Your role in the |
| Tx:13.27 | loved him not and looked upon him as condemned. The moment that you | realize guilt is insane, wholly unjustified, and wholly without |
| Tx:13.35 | surely end his peace of mind and so destroy him. Yet if he could but | realize the war is between forces that are real and unreal powers, he |
| Tx:13.40 | a difference of any kind. For you will need no contrast to help you | realize that this is what you want, and only this. Fear not the Holy |
| Tx:13.49 | without direction. You will perceive the need for this if you will | realize that to deny is the decision not to know. The logic of the |
| Tx:13.54 | that unless you learn it, you will not be happy. You do not | realize that the foundation on which this most peculiar learning goal |
| Tx:13.62 | of bringing light to darkness. For, like your brothers, you do not | realize the light has come and freed you from the sleep of darkness. |
| Tx:13.63 | holy. The quietness of its simplicity is so compelling that you will | realize it is impossible to deny the simple truth. For there is |

| Tx:14.27 | to the desirable; what you do not want to what you do. You will | realize that salvation must come to you this way if you consider what |
| Tx:14.44 | Could you but | realize for a single instant the power of healing that the reflection |
| Tx:14.73 | because you have abandoned the Teacher of Peace. Whenever you fully | realize that you know not, peace will return, for you will have |
| Tx:15.19 | You do not | realize how much you have misused your brothers by seeing them as |
| Tx:15.23 | Yet what you do not | realize each time you choose is that your choice is your evaluation |
| Tx:15.24 | will seem hard at first, but you will learn to love it when you | realize that it is true and constitutes a tribute to your power. You |
| Tx:15.73 | your awareness of it. For what the ego really wants, you do not | realize. |
| Tx:15.104 | your brothers from yourself. Through peace you invite them back and | realize that they are where your invitation bids them be. What you |
| Tx:15.107 | means of communication. And if you understand this lesson, you will | realize that to sacrifice the body is to sacrifice nothing, and |
| Tx:16.30 | to you. The extent of the split that lies in this you do not | realize. And until you do, the split will remain unrecognized and |
| Tx:16.43 | In looking at the special relationship, it is necessary first to | realize that it involves a great amount of pain. Anxiety, despair, |
| Tx:16.44 | be a weapon, but if you consider how you value it and why, you will | realize what it must be. The special love relationship is the ego's |
| Tx:16.63 | sight that you will see no need at all to magnify it. For you will | realize that the only value which the body has is to enable you to |
| Tx:16.65 | illusions. Delay will hurt you now more than before only because you | realize it is delay and that escape from pain is really possible. |
| Tx:17.16 | Your own experience has taught you this. But what you do not | realize are all the reasons which go to make the relationship unholy. |
| Tx:17.23 | can change your mind about it for you. But first be sure you fully | realize what you have made the past to represent and why. |
| Tx:17.31 | is very anxious to preserve its reason as it sees it. It does not | realize that it is totally insane. And you must realize just what |
| Tx:17.31 | sees it. It does not realize that it is totally insane. And you must | realize just what this means if you would be restored to sanity. The |
| Tx:17.33 | It is essential to | realize that all defenses do what they would defend. The underlying |
| Tx:17.35 | on the hypnotic gleaming of the frame. Look at the picture, and | realize that death is offered you. |
| Tx:17.37 | set in a frame of time. If you focus on the picture, you will | realize that it was only the frame that made you think it was a |
| Tx:17.41 | into what lies beyond the picture. As you look on this, you | realize that it is not a picture but a reality. This is no figured |
| Tx:17.54 | a condition in which you cannot use it. As a result, you do not | realize that it is with you still. And by cutting yourself off from |
| Tx:17.57 | He provides for any situation, but remember that you do not yet | realize their universal application. Therefore it is essential at |
| Tx:17.76 | of refusing faith to truth is enormous and far greater than you | realize. But to answer truth with faith entails no strain at all. |
| Tx:17.78 | responsible to him. Fail him not now, for it has been given you to | realize what your lack of faith in him must mean to you. His |
| Tx:18.5 | hearing how very different is reality from what you see. You do not | realize the magnitude of that one error. It was so vast and so |
| Tx:18.16 | as if the world were given you, to make it what you will. You do not | realize that you are attacking it, trying to triumph over it and make |
| Tx:18.18 | outside. You do not respond to it as though you made it, nor do you | realize that the emotions which the dream produces must come from |
| Tx:18.18 | the dream and what they do that seem to make the dream. You do not | realize that you are making them act out for you, for if you did, the |
| Tx:18.26 | it and terribly afraid of its judgment upon you. And you do not | realize that you are not afraid of love, but only of what you have |
| Tx:18.32 | is not necessary that you do more; indeed, it is necessary that you | realize that you cannot do more. Do not attempt to give the Holy |
| Tx:18.39 | give so little to receive so much.] And it is very hard for you to | realize that it is not personally insulting that your contribution |
| Tx:18.44 | is an undertaking impossible for you to understand. You do not even | realize you have accepted the Holy Spirit's purpose as your own, and |
| Tx:18.50 | of your Identity. And you have done a stranger thing than you yet | realize. You have displaced your guilt to your bodies from your |
| Tx:18.59 | will consider what this “transportation” really entails, you will | realize that it is a sudden unawareness of the body and a joining of |
| Tx:18.78 | scorched and joyless, which makes up your little kingdom. And | realize the life and joy which love would bring to it from where it |
| Tx:19.5 | It cannot be difficult to | realize that faith must be the opposite of faithlessness. Yet the |
| Tx:19.14 | as it was made again through faith. And there it is that you will | realize that there is nothing faith cannot forgive. No error |
| Tx:19.29 | from the spiral is misperceived, but as you approach the line, you | realize that it was not affected by the drop into another plane at |
| Tx:19.33 | uprooted in its smile of love. You see it still because you do not | realize that its foundation has gone. Its source has been removed, |
| Tx:19.76 | It is not given to the ego's disciples to | realize that they have dedicated themselves to death. Freedom is |
| Tx:19.95 | not to desert, all rise and bid you not to raise your eyes. For you | realize that if you look on this and let the veil be lifted, they |
| Tx:19.99 | seems to make no sense. How can you know that it is over unless you | realize its purpose is accomplished? Here, with the journey's end |
| Tx:20.50 | would have not be is here kept “safe” from Him. But what you do not | realize is what you fear within your brother and would not see in him |
| Tx:21.38 | sacrifice has given it great power in your sight, except you do not | realize you cannot see because of it. For sacrifice must be exacted |
| Tx:21.49 | and not a fact. But on this choice depends far more than you may | realize as yet. For on the voice you choose to hear and on the sights |
| Tx:21.52 | You do not | realize the whole extent to which the idea of separation has |
| Tx:21.56 | on reason's absence. The ego never uses it because it does not | realize that it exists. The partially insane have access to it, and |
| Tx:22.6 | And long and hard you tried to understand its messages. You did not | realize it is impossible to understand what fails entirely to reach |
| Tx:22.40 | stands between you. Either alone will see it as a solid block, nor | realize how thin the drapery that separates you now. Yet it is almost |
| Tx:22.64 | burden on you. For when you have accepted it with gladness, you will | realize that your relationship is a reflection of the union of the |
| Tx:23.5 | the weak about him? Who can walk trembling in a fearful world and | realize that Heaven's glory shines on him? |
| Tx:23.7 | to be victorious. Why else would you identify with it? Surely you | realize the ego is at war with God. Certain it is it has no enemy. |
| Tx:23.8 | Do you not | realize a war against yourself would be a war on God? Is victory |
| Tx:23.31 | The means of madness must be insane. Are you as certain that you | realize the goal is madness? |
| Tx:23.47 | not asked to fight against your wish to murder. But you are asked to | realize the form it takes conceals the same intent. And it is this |
| Tx:23.50 | raised above the battleground, in it no more. This is your part—to | realize that murder in any form is not your will. The overlooking of |
| Tx:23.51 | but the clash of forms is meaningless. And it is over when you | realize it never was begun. How can a battle be perceived as |
| Tx:24.41 | dream believes that what he made is happening to him. He does not | realize he picked a thread from here, a scrap from there, and wove a |
| Tx:24.56 | never was is not a part of you. Yet you will think it is until you | realize that it is not a part of him who stands beside you. He is the |
| Tx:24.58 | Would you not gladly | realize these laws are not for you? Then see him not as prisoner to |
| Tx:25.13 | but fear and guilt been your reward. How long is needed for you to | realize the chance of change in this respect is hardly worth delaying |
| Tx:25.51 | What wish can rise against His Will and be immutable? If you could | realize nothing is changeless but the Will of God, this course would |
| Tx:26.85 | What then remains to be undone for you to | realize Their Presence? Only this—you have a differential view of |
| Tx:27.2 | the sign that he has lost his innocence and need but look on you to | realize that he has been condemned. And what to you has been unfair |
| Tx:28.4 | that memory holds only what is past that it is hard for you to | realize it is a skill that can remember now. The limitations on |
| Tx:29.10 | or any loss, to find yourself in Heaven and in God? Until you | realize you give up nothing, until you understand there is no loss, |
| Tx:30.11 | recognize that something has occurred which is not part of it. Then | realize that you have asked a question by yourself and must have set |
| Tx:30.14 | day by robbing you of what you really want. This can be very hard to | realize when once you have decided by yourself the rules which |
| Tx:31.26 | is here delay of happiness is shortened by a span of time you cannot | realize. You never hate your brother for his sins, but only for your |
| Tx:31.50 | follow this world's laws and never seek to go beyond its roads nor | realize the way you see yourself. Now must the Holy Spirit find a way |
| W1:3.2 | to see things exactly as they appear to you now, and to | realize how little you really understand about them. It is therefore |
| W1:23.9 | of identifying the cause of the world you see. When you finally | realize that thoughts of attack and of being attacked are not |
| W1:24.1 | In no situation which arises do you | realize the outcome that would make you happy. Therefore you have no |
| W1:24.4 | should be on uncovering the outcome you want. You will quickly | realize that you have a number of goals in mind as part of the |
| W1:30.3 | or so, repeat it to yourself slowly, looking about you and trying to | realize that the idea applies to everything you do see now or could |
| W1:42.7 | own thoughts contain. Let them come without censoring unless you | realize your mind is merely wandering and you have let obviously |
| W1:45.11 | place you are trying to reach. You will probably be unable as yet to | realize how high you are trying to go. Yet even with the little |
| W1:56.3 | to see. Recognizing that what I see reflects what I think I am, I | realize that vision is my greatest need. The world I see attests to |
| W1:57.5 | instead of this. When I see the world as a place of freedom, I will | realize that it reflects the laws of God instead of the rules which I |
| W1:66.13 | all illusions. All truth stands on the other. Let us try today to | realize that only the truth is true. |
| W1:67.2 | We will make every effort today to reach this truth about you and to | realize fully, if only for a moment, that it is the truth. In the |
| W1:67.8 | Try to | realize in the shorter practice periods that this is not your tiny |
| W1:68.2 | Perhaps you do not yet fully | realize just what holding grievances does to your awareness. It seems |
| W1:70.1 | guilt nor salvation as in your own mind and nowhere else. When you | realize that all guilt is solely an invention of your mind, you must |
| W1:70.1 | that all guilt is solely an invention of your mind, you must also | realize that guilt and salvation must be in the same place. |
| W1:71.1 | You may not | realize that the ego has set up a plan for salvation in opposition to |
| W1:71.1 | we have considered just what the ego's plan is, perhaps you will | realize that, however preposterous it may be, you do believe it. |
| W1:75.9 | Realize that your forgiveness entitles you to vision. Understand that | |
| W1:76.1 | not bound by them. Yet to understand that this is so, you must first | realize salvation lies not there. While you would seek for it in |
| W1:76.6 | except the laws of God. This needs repeating over and over until you | realize that it applies to everything that you have made in |
| W1:76.7 | that this is so. It is no longer a truth which we would hide. We | realize instead it is a truth which keeps us free forever. Magic |
| W1:76.11 | Hear Him Who tells you this, and | realize how foolish are the laws you thought upheld the world you |
| W1:79.7 | different kinds of problems that we think we have. We will try to | realize that we have only one problem, which we have failed to |
| W1:R2.3 | not allow your intent to waver in the face of distracting thoughts. | Realize that, whatever form such thoughts may take, they have no |
| W1:90.2 | [79] Let me recognize the problem so it can be solved. Let me | realize today that the problem is always some form of grievance which |
| W1:90.5 | as simultaneous in their occurrence. That is because I do not yet | realize that God has placed the answer together with the problem, so |
| W1:91.4 | however little they may be, have strong support. Did you but | realize how great this strength, your doubts would vanish. Today we |
| W1:95.1 | change in you impossible. You do not accept this and you fail to | realize it must be so, only because you believe that you have changed |
| W1:100.8 | Begin the exercises with the thought today's idea contains. Then | realize your part is to be happy. Only this is asked of you or anyone |
| W1:102.2 | Today we try to loose its weakened hold still further. And to | realize that pain is purposeless, without a cause, and with no power |
| W1:123.1 | we can well be grateful for our gains, which are far greater than we | realize. |
| W1:123.7 | and offer yours to Him for 15 minutes twice today. And you will | realize to Whom you offer thanks, and Whom He thanks as you are |
| W1:126.9 | your mind from every bar to what forgiveness means and let you | realize its worth to you. |
| W1:129.10 | A day of grace is given you today, and we give thanks. This day we | realize that what you feared to lose was only loss. |
| W1:131.16 | A tiny moment of surprise, perhaps, will make you pause before you | realize the world you see before you in the light reflects the truth |
| W1:132.19 | You need not | realize that healing comes to many brothers far across the world as |
| W1:133.12 | goals to come between the real alternatives, and thus you do not | realize there are but two. And the alternative you think you chose |
| W1:134.17 | cross your mind. Be certain not to dwell on any one of them, but | realize that you are using his “offenses” but to save the world from |

| W1:192.9 | made free. The way is simple. Every time you feel a stab of anger, | realize you hold a sword above your head. And it will fall or be |
| W1:196.1 | body slave to vengeance. You will not attack yourself, and you will | realize that to attack another is but to attack yourself. You will be |
| W1:196.10 | your mind so wholly that escape appears quite hopeless. When you | realize once and for all that it is you you fear, the mind perceives |
| W1:197.5 | and what belongs to God must be His own. Yet you will never | realize His gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, forever |

| M:5.8 | those who do not understand what healing is. These patients do not | realize they have chosen sickness. On the contrary, they believe that |

| Tx:1.32 | Doing them will bring conviction in the ability, since conviction | really comes through accomplishment. The ability is the potential; |
| Tx:1.42 | should inspire gratitude, not awe. Man should thank God for what he | really is. The Children of God are very holy, and the miracle honors |
| Tx:1.43 | and brings it into the light where it belongs. Holiness can never be | really hidden in darkness, but man can deceive himself about it. This |

| Tx:1.91 | what he lacks. A sense of separation from God is the only lack he | really needs to correct. This sense of separation would never have |
| Tx:1.92 | Ultimately, space is as meaningless as time. The concept is | really one of space-time belief. |
| Tx:1.100 | fear exists, then there is not perfect love. But only perfect love | really exists. If there is fear, it creates a state which does not |
| Tx:2.15 | which places him in a position to realize that his own errors never | really occurred. When the “deep sleep” fell upon Adam, he was in a |

| Tx:2.53 | the Atonement plan is to undo error at all levels. Illness, which is | really “not-right-mindedness,” is the result of level confusion in |
| Tx:2.60 | much greater fear that the mind can hurt itself. Neither error is | really meaningful, because the miscreations of the mind do not really |
| Tx:2.60 | is really meaningful, because the miscreations of the mind do not | really exist. This recognition is a far better protective device than |
| Tx:2.61 | perfect and therefore does not require correction. The body does not | really exist except as a learning device for the mind. This learning |
| Tx:2.70 | concepts of which man is capable now are time-dependent. Charity is | really a weaker reflection of a much more powerful love-encompassment |
| Tx:2.89 | truth. You do not expect to grow when you say it, because you do not | really think that you will. |

| Tx:2.111 | No one who lives in fear is | really alive. His own last judgment cannot be directed toward himself |
| Tx:3.14 | feels exonerated in beating a child. Can you believe that the Father | really thinks this way? It is so essential that all such thinking be |
| Tx:3.16 | very sure that you recognize how utterly impossible this assumption | really is and how entirely it arises from misprojection. This kind of |
| Tx:3.23 | of whether the body or the mind can see (or understand). This is not | really open to question at all. The body is not capable of |
| Tx:3.23 | exactly what the body is. This is what “a sane mind in a sane body” | really means. It does not confuse destruction with innocence because |
| Tx:3.26 | experienced some light and some [of everything]. This makes everyone | really unable to deny truth totally, even if he generally deceives |
| Tx:3.27 | see truly. More simply, it means that you never see what does not | really exist. When you lack confidence in what someone will do, you |
| Tx:3.28 | everything as it is. If nothing but the truth exists (and this is | really a redundant statement, because what is not true cannot exist) |
| Tx:3.35 | When you say that you are acting on the basis of knowledge, you are | really confusing perception and cognition. Knowledge brings the |

| Tx:3.66 | weapon of defense for your own authority. The issue of authority is | really a question of authorship. When an individual has an “authority |

| Tx:4.10 | doubts the reality of his dream while he is still dreaming is not | really healing the level-split. You have dreamed of a separated ego, |
| Tx:4.32 | is a decision of the ego, which is completely confused about what is | really possible. This accounts for its erratic nature. |
| Tx:4.40 | It should, however, be remembered that inventiveness is | really wasted effort, even in its most ingenious forms. We do not |
| Tx:4.52 | It has never | really entered your mind to give up every idea you ever had that |
| Tx:4.53 | single unequivocal call. Watch carefully and see what it is you are | really asking for. Be very honest with yourself about this, for we |
| Tx:4.53 | about this, for we must hide nothing from each other. If you will | really try to do this, you have taken the first step toward preparing |
| Tx:4.63 | themselves and to me, but only the ego can be disheartened. Have you | really considered how many opportunities you have to gladden |
| Tx:4.71 | the mind becomes actually dazed. Being told by the ego that it is | really part of the body and that the body is its protector, the mind |
| Tx:4.81 | it has a sensible answer. You must be careful, however, that you | really understand the question. What is the “you” who are living in |
| Tx:4.93 | habit pattern is broken. You are still free to choose, but can you | really want the rewards of the ego in the presence of the rewards of |
| Tx:4.96 | then, results in a spurious kind of generalization which is | really not abstract at all. It will respond in certain specific ways |
| Tx:5.37 | accepts it without question. The only aspect of time which is | really eternal is now. That is what we really mean when we say that |
| Tx:5.37 | only aspect of time which is really eternal is now. That is what we | really mean when we say that “now is the only time.” The literal |
| Tx:5.37 | at best to mean “don't worry about the future.” That is not what it | really means at all. |
| Tx:5.49 | healing. Your concept lacked the idea of undoing it. What you were | really advocating, then, was adopting a policy of sharing without a |
| Tx:5.49 | come to give you the foundation, so your own thoughts can make you | really free. You have carried the burden of the ideas you did not |
| Tx:5.56 | Spirit does not let you forsake your brothers. Therefore, you can | really share only the parts of your thoughts which are of Him and |
| Tx:5.60 | of the ego's belief in it. This is the belief from which all guilt | really stems. |
| Tx:5.67 | be changed, because when you do not think like God you are not | really thinking at all. Delusional ideas are not real thoughts, |
| Tx:5.68 | without recognizing that by accepting this responsibility they are | really reacting irresponsibly. If the sole responsibility of the |
| Tx:5.84 | increasingly less apparent to him. A man who knows what fixation | really means and yet does not yield to it is terribly afraid. |
| Tx:5.90 | Do you | really believe you can make a voice that can drown out His? Do you |
| Tx:5.90 | really believe you can make a voice that can drown out His? Do you | really believe that you can devise a thought system which can |
| Tx:5.90 | can devise a thought system which can separate you from His? Do you | really believe that you can plan for your safety and joy better than |
| Tx:6.4 | was that it was not a form of punishment. Nothing, however, can be | really explained in negative terms only. There is a positive |
| Tx:6.11 | them as teachers and as learners. Yet I know that they cannot | really betray themselves or me and that it is still on them that I |
| Tx:6.21 | they have described my reactions to Judas as they did if they had | really understood me. They would have realized I could not have said, |
| Tx:6.49 | is perhaps the strangest perception of all if you consider what it | really involves. The ego, which is not real, attempts to persuade the |
| Tx:6.79 | equated. It is, however, more advanced than the first step, which is | really only a thought reversal. The second step is a positive |
| Tx:7.22 | because that would defeat its purpose. Therefore, it does not | really learn at all. The Holy Spirit teaches you to use what the ego |
| Tx:7.26 | it is clearly impossible. It is therefore a lesson which you cannot | really learn, and therefore cannot really teach. Yet you are always |
| Tx:7.26 | a lesson which you cannot really learn, and therefore cannot | really teach. Yet you are always teaching. You must therefore be |
| Tx:7.29 | what is not true, you are accepting conflict as your choice. Is it | really a choice? It seems to be, but seeming and reality are hardly |
| Tx:7.49 | If you see only the changeless in him, you have not | really changed him at all. By changing your mind about his for him, |
| Tx:7.62 | Aware of its weakness, the ego wants your allegiance, but not as you | really are. The ego therefore wants to engage your mind in its own |
| Tx:7.85 | Any attempt to keep part of it and get rid of another part does not | really mean anything. Remember that a conflicted teacher is a poor |
| Tx:7.98 | which is total confusion about everything. Yet you do not | really believe this, or you could not possibly maintain it. If you |
| Tx:7.98 | really believe this, or you could not possibly maintain it. If you | really saw this result, you could not want it. The only reason why |
| Tx:7.99 | is surely clear that you can both accept into your mind what is not | really there and deny what is. Neither of these possibilities |
| Tx:7.105 | optional, since it is what you are. Sharing His Will with me is not | really open to choice, though it may seem to be. The whole separation |
| Tx:8.22 | has made of you. This is your responsibility, because once you have | really done this, you will accept the Atonement for yourself. What |
| Tx:8.64 | and gives it over entirely to the One Light in Which it can be | really understood at all. To confuse a learning device with a |
| Tx:8.90 | split, making it possible for the mind to be afraid of what it | really is. It is apparent that reality cannot “threaten” anything |
| Tx:8.90 | is why the ego is against you. What seems to be the fear of God is | really only the fear of your own reality. |
| Tx:8.96 | because you are afraid you might receive it, and you would. That is | really why you persist in asking the teacher who could not possibly |
| Tx:8.97 | is alone, and the martyr believes that God is crucifying him. Both | really fear abandonment and retaliation, but the atheist is more |
| Tx:8.103 | was never created. If it was never created, it is nothing. Can you | really devote yourself to nothing? |
| Tx:8.108 | suppose, then, that what you request of the Holy Spirit is what you | really want, but you are still afraid of it. Should this be the case, |
| Tx:8.108 | fearful to him than its physical expression. In this case he is not | really asking for release from fear but for the removal of a symptom |
| Tx:9.16 | teacher of salvation. Yet this question, ridiculous as it seems, is | really the crucial issue in the whole separation fantasy. Anyone who |
| Tx:9.20 | he is more likely to start with the equally incredible idea that he | really believes in attack and so does the patient, but it does not |
| Tx:9.41 | you do not understand how lofty the Holy Spirit's perception of you | really is. He is not deceived by anything you do, because He never |
| Tx:9.65 | possible that you merely shifted from one dream to another, without | really wakening? |
| Tx:9.78 | worship? Is this the image you would be vigilant to save? [Are you | really afraid of losing this?] Look calmly at the logical conclusion |
| Tx:9.78 | of the ego's thought system and judge whether its offering is | really what you want, for this is what it offers you. To obtain this |
| Tx:9.82 | then, you may believe you are afraid of nothingness, but you are | really afraid of nothing. And in that awareness you are healed. You |
| Tx:9.93 | as all forms of denial replace what is with what is not. No one can | really do this, but that you can think you can and believe you have |
| Tx:10.2 | Yet what would you say to someone who | really believed this question involves conflict? If you made the ego, |
| Tx:10.6 | I and my Father are one with you, for you are part of us. Do you | really believe that part of God can be missing or lost to Him? |
| Tx:10.48 | shallow, callous, uninvolved, and even desperate, but not | really afraid. Minimizing fear but not its undoing is the ego's |
| Tx:11.1 | motives of others is hazardous to you. If you decide that someone is | really trying to attack you or desert you or enslave you, you will |
| Tx:11.10 | you that fear is an appeal for help. This is what recognizing it | really means. If you do not protect it, He will reinterpret it. That |
| Tx:11.16 | recognize in hatred the call for love. And to give a brother what he | really wants is to offer it unto yourself, for your Father wills you |
| Tx:11.22 | not by denying its full import in any way—this is what you will | really see. You cannot lay aside the obstacle to real vision without |
| Tx:11.31 | why you must get rid of it before you can perceive the world as it | really is. |
| Tx:11.32 | your split mind, and which is the symbol of death. For if you could | really separate yourselves from the Mind of God, you would die, and |
| Tx:11.70 | its reality, for its reality is only what you gave it. You cannot | really give anything but love to anyone or anything, nor can you |
| Tx:11.70 | really give anything but love to anyone or anything, nor can you | really receive anything else from them. If you think you have |
| Tx:11.71 | from God, its power and grandeur could only bring you peace if you | really looked upon it. If you are afraid, it is because you saw |
| Tx:11.77 | Do you | really believe that you can kill the Son of God? The Father has |
| Tx:12.10 | fear. You do not like it, but it is not your desire to attack which | really frightens you. You are not seriously disturbed by your |
| Tx:12.11 | dark foundation is the memory of God, and it is of this that you are | really afraid. For this memory would instantly restore you to your |
| Tx:12.12 | intense and burning love of God, and His for you. This is what you | really want to hide. |
| Tx:12.45 | of him. In your questioning of illusions, ask yourself if it is | really sane to perceive what was now. If you remember the past as you |
| Tx:12.61 | You do not | really want the world you see, for it has disappointed you since time |
| Tx:12.69 | and render you unwilling to question the value that this world can | really hold for you. |
| Tx:12.72 | a foolish journey that would lead away from light, remember what you | really want and say, |
| Tx:13.23 | as a means to “solve” the past and still to see them as they | really are? Salvation is not found by those who use their brothers to |
| Tx:14.52 | form, and nothing else. For you do not respond to what a brother | really offers you, but only to the particular perception of his |
| Tx:14.73 | cannot know unless the effects of understanding are with them can | really learn at all. And for this, it must be peace they want and |
| Tx:15.66 | This is not its statement, but it is its purpose. For the ego | really believes that it can get and keep by making guilty. This is |
| Tx:15.70 | it would much prefer to attack directly and avoid delaying what it | really wants. Yet the ego acknowledges “reality” as it sees it and |
| Tx:15.73 | the ego's altar far exceeds your awareness of it. For what the ego | really wants, you do not realize. |
| Tx:16.14 | are unwilling to believe that what has happened is true. But can you | really believe that all that has happened, even though you do not |
| Tx:16.15 | reality be yours while you are bent on making it unreal? And are you | really safer in maintaining the unreality of what has happened than |
| Tx:16.20 | in peace. Have faith in what has faith in you. Think what you have | really seen and heard and recognize it. Can you be alone with |
| Tx:16.24 | What can it be that has not learned it? It must be this that is | really outside yourself, not by your own projection, but in truth. |
| Tx:16.24 | taken in that is not you. What you accept into your minds does not | really change them. Illusions are but beliefs in what is not there. |
| Tx:16.43 | We have spoken of this before, but there are some aspects of what is | really being attempted that we have not touched upon. |
| Tx:16.65 | only because you realize it is delay and that escape from pain is | really possible. Find hope and comfort rather than despair in this: |
| Tx:16.66 | Nothing you seek to strengthen in the special relationship is | really part of you. And you cannot keep part of the thought system |
| Tx:16.66 | system which taught you it was real and understand the Thought that | really knows what you are. You have allowed the Thought of your |
| Tx:16.71 | the blame for deprivation on it, for the past is gone. You cannot | really not let go what has already gone. It must be, therefore, that |
| Tx:17.1 | his brothers, and his God. Yet what is done in dreams has not been | really done. It is impossible to convince the dreamer that this is |
| Tx:17.4 | understanding, a frame of reference for reality to which it cannot | really be compared at all. |
| Tx:17.15 | ego holy in your sight and teach you what you do to keep it safe is | really love. |
| Tx:17.17 | what can be most readily associated with those on whom vengeance is | really sought are centered on and separated off as being the only |
| Tx:17.19 | does not enter at all to “spoil” the dream. And the less the other | really brings to it, the “better” it becomes. Thus, the attempt at |
| Tx:17.38 | it is the picture that is the gift. And only on this basis are you | really free to choose. Look at the pictures. Both of them. One is a |
| Tx:17.50 | satisfaction and thought you found it. Forget not now the misery you | really found, and do not now breathe life into your failing egos. For |
| Tx:17.71 | you hold against the other what he has done to you. But what you | really blame him for is what you did to him. It is not his past but |
| Tx:18.6 | idea of loss is meaningless and only increase is conceivable. Do you | really think it strange that a world in which everything is backwards |
| Tx:18.30 | Let not time worry you, for all the fear that you experience is | really past. Time has been readjusted to help us do together what |
| Tx:18.59 | If you will consider what this “transportation” | really entails, you will realize that it is a sudden unawareness of |
| Tx:18.59 | it. And both become whole as neither is perceived as separate. What | really happens is that you have given up the illusion of a limited |
| Tx:18.61 | not limit you merely because you would not have it so. You are not | really “lifted out” of it; it cannot contain you. You go where you |
| Tx:18.64 | You have made much progress and are | really trying to make still more, but there is one thing you have |
| Tx:18.86 | It is extremely simple, being based on what this little kingdom | really is. The barren sands, the darkness and the lifelessness are |
| Tx:19.19 | himself. But he cannot sin. There is nothing he can do that would | really change his reality in any way nor make him really guilty. That |
| Tx:19.19 | can do that would really change his reality in any way nor make him | really guilty. That is what sin would do, for such is its purpose. |
| Tx:19.26 | The ego does not think it possible that love, not fear, is | really called upon by sin and always answers. For the ego brings sin |
| Tx:19.26 | guilt's protection, for what is deserving punishment must have been | really done. Punishment is always the great preserver of sin, |
| Tx:19.27 | that it was an error but keeping it uncorrectable. This is not | really a change in your perception, for it is sin that calls for |
| Tx:19.61 | Is it a sacrifice or a release? What has the body | really given you that justifies your strange belief that in it lies |
| Tx:19.71 | be understood, for it is one the ego sees as proof of sin. It is not | really punitive at all. It is but the inevitable result of equating |
| Tx:19.77 | die unless he chooses death. What seems to be the fear of death is | really its attraction. Guilt, too, is feared and fearful. Yet it |
| Tx:20.20 | Have you not wondered what the world is | really like; how it would look through happy eyes? The world you see |
| Tx:20.53 | aside the body and quietly transcend it, rising to welcome what you | really want. And from His holy temple, look you not back on what you |
| Tx:20.56 | to you than its unholy seeming counterpart, and you have learned you | really want but one. This is no time for sadness. Perhaps confusion, |
| Tx:20.63 | body has laid a judgment on him and sees him not. He does not | really see him as sinful; he does not see him at all. In the darkness |
| Tx:20.66 | not be, “How can I see my brother without the body?” Ask only, “Do I | really wish to see him sinless?” And as you ask, forget not that his |
| Tx:20.73 | What if you recognized this world is an hallucination? What if you | really understood you made it up? What if you realized that those who |
| Tx:21.3 | forget the world the sightless “see” must be imagined, for what it | really looks like is unknown to them. They must infer what could be |
| Tx:21.23 | to leave your altars free of what you placed upon them, and what is | really there you cannot fail to see. The holy instant is not an |
| Tx:21.88 | will never fail to answer. God has already given him all that he | really wants. Yet what he is uncertain of, God cannot give. For he |
| Tx:21.89 | help you be but partially insane. And yet it is the final one that | really asks if you are willing to be wholly sane. |
| Tx:22.18 | can be sure indeed that any seeming happiness that does not last is | really fear. Joy does not turn to sorrow, for the eternal cannot |
| Tx:24.15 | are and would defend your specialness against the truth of what you | really are, how can you know the truth? What answer that the Holy |
| Tx:25.8 | and special, to the Christ, to make the oneness clear to what is | really one. In this world, this is not understood but can be taught. |
| Tx:25.9 | both the Father and the Son, He knows the Will of God and what you | really will. But this is understood by mind perceived as one, aware |
| Tx:25.28 | love. He will hear plainly that the calls to war he heard before are | really calls to peace. He will perceive that where he gave attack is |
| Tx:25.48 | values are not yours. [And nothing that you think you see in it is | really there at all.] And this is seen and understood as each one |
| Tx:25.51 | there is nothing else you could believe if you but looked at what it | really is. |
| Tx:25.58 | and more desired as it proves to him that it is an alternative he | really wants. From this position does his sinfulness and all the sin |
| Tx:25.75 | experience within the world, which is but shadows of all that is | really happening within yourself. The understanding which you need |
| Tx:25.76 | not because you are a miserable sinner too. How can the special | really understand that justice is the same for everyone? To take from |
| Tx:26.23 | one understands what is the same and seems to choose where no choice | really is. The real world is the area of choice made real, not in the |
| Tx:26.27 | Who could behold the face of Christ and not recall His Father as He | really is? Who could fear love and stand upon the ground where sin |
| Tx:26.36 | since gone by? How real a hindrance can this dream be to where he | really is? For this is fact and does not change whatever dreams he |
| Tx:26.37 | his own delusions about time and place affect a change in where he | really is? The unforgiven is a voice that calls out from a past |
| Tx:26.37 | be made real again and seen as here and now in place of what is | really now and here. Is this a hindrance to the truth the past is |
| Tx:26.40 | It must draw you from the past into the present, where you | really are. |
| Tx:26.58 | be what you want? Or is it a mistake about your will and what you | really are? Let us consider what the error is, so it can be |
| Tx:26.73 | in disaster's form is difficult to credit in advance. Nor is there | really sense in this idea. |
| Tx:27.5 | of a different you. It is a picture of a body still, for what you | really are cannot be seen nor pictured. Yet this one has not been |
| Tx:27.13 | him his transgressions, you but add to all the guilt that he has | really earned. |
| Tx:27.15 | it, you grant your brother mercy but retain the proof he is not | really innocent. The sick remain accusers. They cannot forgive their |
| Tx:27.25 | every thought extends because that is its purpose, being what it | really is. From an idea of self as two, there comes a necessary view |
| Tx:27.50 | instances and generalizes to include them all. This is because they | really are the same despite their different forms. All learning aims |
| Tx:27.52 | Leave, then, the transfer of your learning to the One Who | really understands its laws and Who will guarantee that they remain |
| Tx:27.53 | all the witnesses that you behold will be far less than all there | really are. Infinity cannot be understood by merely counting up its |
| Tx:27.68 | the world appeared to thrust upon you, uninvited and unasked, must | really be. Of one thing you were sure—of all the many causes you |
| Tx:27.70 | peace or war, your dreams or your reality? Yet if the choice is | really given you, then you must see the causes of the things you |
| Tx:27.81 | the world remembers his attack upon himself. No one believes there | really was a time when he knew nothing of a body and could never have |
| Tx:28.57 | the little bit of mind you call your own and all the rest of what is | really yours. You hate it, yet you think it is your self and that |
| Tx:29.15 | be in constant change. Yet what is that except the state confusion | really means? Stability to those who are confused is meaningless, and |
| Tx:29.17 | lies the idea of sickness. For it asks that God be less than all He | really is. What, then, becomes of you, for it is you of whom the |
| Tx:29.22 | is gone. In glory will you see your brother then and understand what | really fills the gap so long perceived as keeping you apart. |
| Tx:29.47 | found that represents a parody of life which in its lifelessness is | really death, conceived as real and given living form. Yet each must |
| Tx:29.52 | For idols are unrecognized as such and never seen for what they | really are. That is the only power which they have. Their purpose is |
| Tx:29.59 | give him more than other men possess. It must be more. It does not | really matter more of what—more beauty, more intelligence, more |
| Tx:30.13 | have set and lets the answer show you what the question must have | really been. |
| Tx:30.14 | not get it, for it would destroy the day by robbing you of what you | really want. This can be very hard to realize when once you have |
| Tx:30.24 | have changed your mind about the day and have remembered what you | really want. Its purpose has no longer been obscured by the insane |
| Tx:30.29 | And yet, you cannot make decisions by yourself. The only question | really is with what you choose to make them. That is really all. The |
| Tx:30.29 | only question really is with what you choose to make them. That is | really all. The first rule, then, is not coercion but a simple |
| Tx:30.42 | a part of him away? What is not whole cannot make whole. But what is | really asked for cannot be denied. Your will is granted. Not in any |
| Tx:30.57 | Instead, there is a wish to understand all things created as they | really are. And it is recognized that all things must be first |
| Tx:30.70 | For this would mean that you forgive a sin by overlooking what is | really there. This is not pardon. For it would assume that, by |
| Tx:30.83 | you think you see another meaning in what went before. What have you | really done except to show there was no meaning there? But you |
| Tx:30.87 | How can communication | really be established while the symbols which are used mean different |
| Tx:30.88 | are lacking in stability, for they are not in line with what you | really are. This is a state so seemingly unsafe that fear must rise. |
| Tx:30.94 | is not one appearance you would hold in place of what your brother | really is. Let no temptation to prefer a dream allow uncertainty to |
| Tx:31.5 | too hard to learn, too difficult to see, and too opposed to what is | really true. Yet you will learn them, for their learning is the only |
| Tx:31.9 | Son remembers his creation. But in guilt he has forgotten what he | really is. |
| Tx:31.15 | it is free, for it will have one outcome either way. Thus is it | really not a choice at all. The leader and the follower emerge as |
| Tx:31.22 | to which you come to listen silently and learn the truth of what you | really want. No more than this will you be asked to learn. But as you |
| Tx:31.35 | end is sure. Perhaps you would prefer to try them all before you | really learn they are but one. The roads this world can offer seem to |
| Tx:31.37 | he use? The great release of power must begin with learning where it | really has a use. And what decision has power if it be applied in |
| Tx:31.65 | you believe you are nor what you think the truth about yourself must | really be. It makes no difference what you look upon nor what you |
| Tx:31.78 | He brings the light to what he looks upon, that he may see it as it | really is. |
| W1:3.2 | exactly as they appear to you now, and to realize how little you | really understand about them. It is therefore essential that you keep |
| W1:7.8 | why you need new ideas about time. This first time idea is not | really so strange as it may sound at first. Look at a cup, for |
| W1:7.9 | idea what this cup is except for your past learning. Do you, then, | really see it? |
| W1:8.1 | This idea is, of course, the reason why you see only the past. No one | really sees anything. He sees only his thoughts projected outward. |
| W1:8.2 | The mind is actually blank when it does this because it is not | really thinking about anything. |
| W1:8.3 | for today is to begin to train your mind to recognize when it is not | really thinking at all. While thoughtless “ideas” preoccupy your |
| W1:9.1 | not with understanding. You do not need to practice what you | really understand. It would indeed be circular to aim at |
| W1:10.3 | another way of repeating our earlier statement that your mind is | really a blank. To recognize this is to recognize nothingness when |
| W1:13.1 | Today's idea is | really another form of the preceding one, except that it is more |
| W1:13.8 | Whatever form such resistance may take, remind yourself that you are | really afraid of such a thought because of the “vengeance” of the |
| W1:14.2 | unless you find them comfortable. If you do, it will be because you | really understand what they are for. |
| W1:16.3 | equally unreal. We will practice this idea in many forms before you | really understand it. |
| W1:17.1 | another step in the direction of identifying cause and effect as it | really operates. You see no neutral things because you have no |
| W1:17.1 | that comes first, despite the temptation to believe that it is | really the other way around. This is not the way the world thinks, |
| W1:17.8 | Regardless of what you may believe, you do not see anything which is | really alive and really joyous. That is because you are unaware as |
| W1:17.8 | you may believe, you do not see anything which is really alive and | really joyous. That is because you are unaware as yet of any thoughts |
| W1:17.8 | That is because you are unaware as yet of any thoughts which are | really true and therefore really happy. |
| W1:17.8 | unaware as yet of any thoughts which are really true and therefore | really happy. |
| W1:19.1 | the order does not actually matter. Thinking and its results are | really simultaneous, for cause and effect are never separate. |
| W1:20.4 | to change your present state for a better one, and one you | really want. |
| W1:21.3 | anger escape you in the practice periods. Remember that you do not | really recognize what arouses anger in you, and nothing that you |
| W1:22.6 | Is this the world I | really want to see? |
| W1:25.3 | interests. Since you have no personal interests, your goals are | really concerned with nothing. In cherishing them, therefore, you |
| W1:26.1 | attack as a real threat. That is because you believe that you can | really attack. And what would have effects through you must also have |
| W1:27.1 | about using the idea on the ground that you are not sure you | really mean it. This does not matter. The purpose of today's |
| W1:28.1 | Today we are | really giving specific application to the idea for yesterday. In |
| W1:28.2 | “in itself” mean? You see a lot of separate things about you, which | really means you are not seeing at all. You either see or not. When |
| W1:28.6 | as a subject for applying the idea for today, you are therefore | really asking to see the purpose of the universe. You will be making |
| W1:35.3 | it establishes your Identity, and it describes you as you must | really be in truth. We will use a somewhat different kind of |
| W1:40.2 | You can practice quite well under almost any circumstance, if you | really want to. |
| W1:49.2 | the Voice of God is calm, always at rest, and wholly certain. It is | really the only part there is. The other part is a wild illusion, |
| W1:52.6 | rather join the thinking of the universe than to obscure all that is | really mine with my pitiful and meaningless “private” thoughts? |
| W1:53.5 | home? Let me remember the power of my decision and recognize where I | really abide. |
| W1:57.4 | world as a prison for God's Son. It must be, then, that the world is | really a place where he can be set free. I would look upon the world |
| W1:64.5 | time you choose whether or not to fulfill your function, you are | really choosing whether to be happy or not. Let us remember this |
| W1:64.6 | all the decisions you will make today by remembering that they are | really very simple. Each one will lead to happiness or unhappiness. |
| W1:64.6 | will lead to happiness or unhappiness. Can such a simple decision | really be difficult to make? Let not the form of the decision deceive |
| W1:65.2 | period in which you try to understand and accept what today's idea | really means. It offers you escape from all your perceived |
| W1:65.11 | your conflicts once and for all, and the extent to which you | really want salvation in spite of your own foolish ideas to the |
| W1:66.1 | your function and achieving happiness. This is because you do not | really see the connection. Yet there is more than just a connection |
| W1:66.10 | your function to you, it must be the gift of the ego. Does the ego | really have gifts to give, being itself an illusion and offering only |
| W1:69.5 | them and past them, which is the only way in which you would be | really convinced of their lack of substance. We will make this |
| W1:70.5 | it did. Today we practice realizing that God's Will and ours are | really the same in this. |
| W1:70.6 | God wants us to be healed, and we do not | really want to be sick, because it makes us unhappy. Therefore, in |
| W1:73.6 | between you and your salvation. The reason is very simple. Do you | really want to be in hell? Do you really want to weep and suffer and |
| W1:73.6 | The reason is very simple. Do you really want to be in hell? Do you | really want to weep and suffer and die? Forget the ego's arguments |
| W1:73.6 | and die? Forget the ego's arguments which seek to prove all this is | really Heaven. You know it is not so. You cannot want this for |
| W1:73.7 | Suffering is not happiness, and it is happiness you | really want. Such is your will in truth. And so salvation is your |
| W1:73.8 | accept God's plan because you share in it. You have no will that can | really oppose it, and you do not want to do so. Salvation is for you. |
| W1:73.8 | is for you. Above all else you want the freedom to remember who you | really are. |
| W1:73.15 | In the shorter practice periods, again make a declaration of what you | really want. Say: |
| W1:76.3 | the strange and twisted laws which you have set up to save you. You | really think that you would starve unless you have stacks of green |
| W1:76.3 | you have stacks of green paper strips and piles of metal discs. You | really think a small round pellet or some fluid pushed into your |
| W1:76.3 | into your veins through a sharpened needle will ward off death. You | really think you are alone unless another body is with you. |
| W1:76.5 | The body's suffering is a mask the mind holds up to hide what | really suffers. It would not understand it is its own enemy, that it |
| W1:77.5 | but asking that the Will of God be done. In doing this, you do not | really ask for anything. You state a fact that cannot be denied. |
| W1:79.1 | cannot be solved if you do not know what it is. Even if it is | really solved already, you will still have the problem because you |
| W1:79.1 | is the situation of the world. The problem of separation, which is | really the only problem, has already been solved. But the solution is |
| W1:91.8 | today. What you think you are is a belief to be undone. But what you | really are must be revealed to you. The belief you are a body calls |
| W1:91.9 | something more solid and more sure, more worthy of your faith, and | really there. |
| W1:96.4 | from your self-concept, for it has no place in which it could be | really part of you. If you are Spirit, then the body must be |
| W1:98.8 | the words you say, and you will go beyond their sound to what they | really mean. Today you practice with Him as you say: |
| W1:102.1 | shaken now, at least enough to let you question it and to suspect it | really makes no sense. It has not gone as yet but lacks the roots |
| W1:106.1 | you will not accept its petty gifts which give you nothing that you | really want; if you will listen with an open mind, which has not told |
| W1:120.3 | aside all sick illusions of myself and let my Father tell me Who I | really am. |
| W1:126.10 | by. Repeat today's idea, and ask for help in understanding what it | really means. Be willing to be taught. Be glad to hear the Voice of |
| W1:127.4 | No course whose purpose is to teach you what you | really are could fail to emphasize there is no difference in what you |
| W1:129.3 | and vengeance has no meaning? Is it loss to find all things you | really want and know they have no ending, and they will remain |
| W1:129.6 | choosing not to value nothingness? This world holds nothing that you | really want, but what you choose instead you want indeed! Let it be |
| W1:129.8 | choose to see that world instead of this, for here is nothing that I | really want. |
| W1:130.1 | for what you value you must want to see, believing what you see is | really there. No one can see a world his mind has not accorded value. |
| W1:130.2 | Yet who can | really hate and love at once? Who can desire what he does not want to |
| W1:131.4 | yet new—an echo of a heritage forgot, yet holding everything you | really want. |
| W1:131.5 | as well to learn you search for Heaven and must find the goal you | really want. No one can fail to want this goal and reach it in the |
| W1:131.6 | It will go because you do not want it. You will reach the goal you | really want as certainly as God created you in sinlessness. |
| W1:131.7 | a tiny candle from a distant star, or what you chose from what you | really want. |
| W1:131.15 | no other goal is valued now nor sought; nothing before this door you | really want, and only what lies past it do you seek. |
| W1:133.8 | denied your own. You therefore will not recognize the things you | really have, denying they are there. Who seeks to take away has been |
| W1:134.4 | as true and not believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is forgiveness | really but a sin, like all the rest. It says the truth is false and |
| W1:135.26 | today when undefended you present yourself to your Creator as you | really are. |
| W1:136.22 | I have forgotten what I | really am for I mistook my body for myself. Sickness is a defense |
| W1:137.4 | that truth is true. The separation sickness would impose has never | really happened. To be healed is merely to accept what always was the |
| W1:138.2 | Heaven seem to be the same as the relinquishment of hell. It is not | really thus. Yet what is true in God's creation cannot enter here |
| W1:138.4 | that you think a thousand choices are confronting you when there is | really only one to make. And even this but seems to be a choice. Do |
| W1:139.3 | To be alive and not to know yourself is to believe that you are | really dead. For what is life except to be yourself, and what but you |
| W1:139.5 | this, and yet you doubt it. But you do not ask what part of you can | really doubt yourself. It cannot really be a part of you that asks |
| W1:139.5 | you do not ask what part of you can really doubt yourself. It cannot | really be a part of you that asks this question, for it asks of one |
| W1:139.6 | idea that it is possible to doubt yourself and be unsure of what you | really are. This is the depth of madness. Yet it is the universal |
| W1:139.12 | truth, how much a part of us is every mind, how faithful they have | really been to us, and how our Father's Love contains us all. |
| W1:140.7 | a change in anything. The mind that brings illusions to the truth is | really changed. There is no change but this. For how can one illusion |
| W1:140.14 | to us. This is the day when separation ends and we remember Who we | really are. |
| W1:151.2 | You do not seem to doubt the world you see. You do not | really question what is shown you through the body's eyes. Nor do you |
| W1:155.2 | then they step back and let it lead the way. What other choice is | really theirs to make? To let illusion walk ahead of truth is |
| W1:164.5 | part like a curtain to reveal what lies beyond them. Now is what is | really there made visible, while all the shadows which appeared to |
| W1:166.4 | he has forgotten where he came from, where he goes, and even who he | really is. |
| W1:166.6 | has felt defeat and hopelessness as he is feeling them. Yet is he | really tragic when you see that he is following the way he chose and |
| W1:170.4 | the alien, now needs your defense against the threat of what you | really are. |
| W1:181.9 | Nor do we ask for fantasies. For what we seek to look upon is | really there. And as our focus goes beyond mistakes, we will behold a |
| W1:184.8 | appeal. His true Identity is hidden from you by what you believe he | really is. His body makes response to what you call him, for his mind |
| W1:185.7 | Let us today devote our practicing to recognizing that we | really mean the words we say. We want the peace of God. This is no |
| W1:185.10 | this request with deep sincerity. For thus you reach to what they | really want and join your own intent with what they seek above all |
| W1:190.6 | you elect to change your mind and choose the joy of God as what you | really want. Your Self is radiant in this holy joy, unchanged, |
| W1:194.4 | real. And so you are not asked to understand the lack of sequence | really found in time. You are but asked to let the future go and |
| W1:194.6 | If you can see the lesson for today as the deliverance it | really is, you will not hesitate to give as much consistent effort as |
| W2:227.2 | And so today we find our glad return to Heaven, which we never | really left. The Son of God this day lays down his dreams. The Son of |
| W2:228.2 | go today. And I stand ready to receive Your Word alone for what I | really am. |
| W2:231.1 | I seek or ever sought. For there is nothing else that I could ever | really want to find. Let me remember You. What else could I desire |
| W2:WIS.1 | being mad, it sees illusions where the truth should be and where it | really is. Sin gave the body eyes, for what is there the sinless |
| W2:251.2 | What we denied ourselves You have restored, and only that is what we | really want. |
| W2:261.1 | In Him is everlasting peace. And only there will I remember who I | really am. |
| W2:289.1 | is over in my mind, the real world must escape my sight. For I am | really looking nowhere, seeing but what is not there. How can I then |
| W2:303.2 | self I made. He is the Self that You have given me. He is but what I | really am in truth. He is the Son You love above all things. He is my |
| W2:WIE.1 | is the “proof” that strength is weak and love is fearful, life is | really death, and what opposes God alone is true. |
| W2:339.1 | him and bring him suffering. Let us resolve today to ask for what we | really want, and only this, that we may spend this day in |
| W2:WIM.1 | A miracle is a correction. It does not create nor | really change at all. It merely looks on devastation and reminds the |
| W2:WIM.4 | Yet faith will bring its witnesses to show that what it rested on is | really there. And thus the miracle will justify your faith in it and |
| W2:358.1 | You Who remember what I | really am alone remember what I really want. You speak for God, and |
| W2:358.1 | You Who remember what I really am alone remember what I | really want. You speak for God, and so You speak for me. And what You |
| W2:E.2 | and follow Him Whom you accepted as your Voice, to speak of what you | really want and really need. His is the Voice for God, and also |
| W2:E.2 | you accepted as your Voice, to speak of what you really want and | really need. His is the Voice for God, and also yours. And thus He |
| M:I.3 | not to use the content of any situation on behalf of what you | really teach and therefore learn. To this the verbal content of your |

| M:4.6 | to new situations as they arise. Because he has valued what is | really valueless, he will not generalize the lesson for fear of loss |
| M:4.9 | unsettling.” Now must the teacher of God understand that he did not | really know what was valuable and what was valueless. All that he |
| M:4.9 | really know what was valuable and what was valueless. All that he | really learned so far was that he did not want the valueless and that |
| M:4.9 | time. He must learn to lay all judgment aside and ask only what he | really wants in every circumstance. Were not each step in this |
| M:4.21 | the world entirely. And that alone is faithfulness. Nothing but that | really deserves the name. Yet each degree, however small, is worth |

| M:7.6 | creation. If you are offering only healing, you cannot doubt. If you | really want the problem solved, you cannot doubt. If you are certain |
| M:8.5 | The properties of illusions which seem to make them different are | really irrelevant, for their properties are as illusory as they are. |

| M:12.4 | recognition in this new teacher of God of what the body's purpose | really is; the only use there really is for it. This lesson is enough |
| M:12.4 | of God of what the body's purpose really is; the only use there | really is for it. This lesson is enough to let the thought of unity |
| M:13.2 | with the body, obscuring its identity and losing sight of what it | really is. |
| M:13.3 | to be forever dissatisfied and discontented, to know not what it | really wants to find. Who can escape this self-condemnation? Only |

| Tx:1.90 | for behavior. The belief that he could be better off is the | reason why man has this mechanism at his disposal. |
| Tx:1.105 | to render itself unnecessary. Learning to do this is the only real | reason for its creation. |
| Tx:2.55 | The | reason only the mind can create is more obvious than may be |

| Tx:2.73 | The | reason I cannot control fear for you is that you are attempting to |
| Tx:2.90 | power about yourself is merely arrogant, but that is not the real | reason why you do not believe it. People prefer to believe that their |

| Tx:4.47 | the latter, but salvation depends on disinhibiting the former. The | reason you need my help is because you have repressed your own Guide |

| Tx:6.19 | The Apostles often misunderstood it and always for the same | reason that makes anyone misunderstand anything. Their own imperfect |

| Tx:8.70 | The | reason why definitions in terms of function are inferior is that they |
| Tx:8.70 | the whole. This is as true of knowledge as it is of perception. The | reason to know in part is to know entirely is because of the |
| Tx:8.91 | that you will not learn this course. Yet you might remember that the | reason for the course is that you do not know who you are. If you do |
| Tx:9.15 | makes it likely that the ego will attack anyone and anything for no | reason at all. This is exactly what the ego does. It is totally |
| Tx:9.39 | accept the Atonement, because the Atonement is the way to peace. The | reason is very simple and so obvious that it is often overlooked. |
| Tx:9.64 | The | reason you do not know your creations is simply that you would decide |
| Tx:9.87 | means it is out of control. To be out of control is to be out of | reason, and the mind does become unreasonable without reason. This is |
| Tx:9.87 | to be out of reason, and the mind does become unreasonable without | reason. This is merely a matter of definition. By defining the mind |
| Tx:10.12 | you denied your own will and therefore do not know what it is. The | reason you must ask what God's Will is in everything is merely |
| Tx:11.23 | to help you, since help is His only purpose. Do you not have greater | reason for fearing the world as you perceive it than for looking at |
| Tx:11.26 | Whenever you become angry with a brother, for whatever | reason, you are believing that the ego is to be saved and to be saved |
| Tx:12.6 | real guiltlessness of God's Son, it did attempt to kill him, and the | reason it gave was that guiltlessness is blasphemous to God. To the |
| Tx:12.16 | The | reason you must look upon your delusions and not keep them hidden is |
| Tx:12.23 | And now the | reason why you are afraid of this course should be apparent. For this |
| Tx:12.29 | Spirit's perception of time is the exact opposite of the ego's. The | reason is equally clear, for they perceive the goal of time as |
| Tx:13.25 | The end of guilt will never come as long as you believe there is a | reason for it. For you must learn that guilt is always totally insane |
| Tx:13.25 | For you must learn that guilt is always totally insane and has no | reason. The Holy Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. If guilt were |
| Tx:13.26 | He has saved you from is gone. Give no reality to guilt, and see no | reason for it. The Holy Spirit does what God would have Him do and |
| Tx:13.27 | you realize guilt is insane, wholly unjustified, and wholly without | reason, you will not fear to look upon the Atonement and accept it |
| Tx:13.29 | You who have always loved your Father can have no fear for any | reason to look within and see your holiness. You cannot be as you |
| Tx:13.29 | You cannot be as you believed you were. Your guilt is without | reason, because it is not in the Mind of God where you are. And this |
| Tx:13.29 | because it is not in the Mind of God where you are. And this is | reason, which the Holy Spirit would restore to you. He would remove |
| Tx:14.25 | Yet you cannot know this, for by hiding truth in fear, you see no | reason to believe the more you look at fear, the less you see it, and |
| Tx:14.51 | but the witness that you have the power of God in you. That is the | reason why the miracle gives equal blessing to all who share in it, |
| Tx:15.39 | mind of the host of God depends on willingness and not on time. The | reason why this course is simple is that truth is simple. Complexity |
| Tx:15.40 | beginning now and reaching to eternity, but for a very simple | reason. Do not obscure the simplicity of this reason, for if you do, |
| Tx:15.40 | but for a very simple reason. Do not obscure the simplicity of this | reason, for if you do, it will be only because you prefer not to |
| Tx:15.40 | you prefer not to recognize it and not to let it go. The simple | reason, simply stated, is this: The holy instant is a time in which |
| Tx:15.49 | which He would purify and not let you destroy. However unholy the | reason why you made them may be, He can translate them into holiness |
| Tx:16.7 | one will hurt the other. Foolish requests are foolish for the simple | reason that they conflict because they contain an element of |
| Tx:16.18 | been given you by God[. Awake and share it], for that is the only | reason He has called to you. His Voice has spoken clearly, and yet |
| Tx:17.11 | you the seeming reasons for your making it. In the light of the real | reason which He brings, as you follow Him, He will show you that |
| Tx:17.11 | He brings, as you follow Him, He will show you that there is no | reason here at all. Each spot His reason touches grows alive with |
| Tx:17.11 | He will show you that there is no reason here at all. Each spot His | reason touches grows alive with beauty, and what seemed ugly in the |
| Tx:17.11 | with beauty, and what seemed ugly in the darkness of your lack of | reason is suddenly released to loveliness. Not even what the Son of |
| Tx:17.27 | God ascribed to anything is its only function. Because of His | reason for creating His relationship with you, the function of |
| Tx:17.31 | mind into which the ego was accepted is very anxious to preserve its | reason as it sees it. It does not realize that it is totally insane. |
| Tx:17.45 | seem disturbed, disjunctive, and even quite distressing. The | reason is quite clear. For the relationship as it is, is out of line |
| Tx:17.58 | becomes the determiner of the outcome, which can be anything. The | reason for this disorganized approach is evident. The ego does not |
| Tx:18.8 | truth. Thus He reverses the course of insanity and restores you to | reason. |
| Tx:19.88 | the cold sweat of fear comes over it, remember it is always for one | reason—the ego has perceived it as a symbol of fear, a sign of sin |
| Tx:19.108 | you eternally by Him. Here is the rest and quiet that you seek, the | reason for the journey from its beginning. Heaven is the gift you owe |
| Tx:21.44 | its madness. Your faith is moving inward, past insanity and on to | reason. And what your reason tells you now, the ego would not hear. |
| Tx:21.44 | is moving inward, past insanity and on to reason. And what your | reason tells you now, the ego would not hear. The Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:21.45 | be something else. Think not that this is madness. For this your | reason tells you, and it follows perfectly from what you have already |
| Tx:21.52 | the whole extent to which the idea of separation has interfered with | reason. Reason lies in the other Self you have cut off from your |
| Tx:21.52 | extent to which the idea of separation has interfered with reason. | Reason lies in the other Self you have cut off from your awareness. |
| Tx:21.52 | awareness. And nothing you have allowed to stay in it is capable of | reason. How can the segment of the mind devoid of reason understand |
| Tx:21.52 | it is capable of reason. How can the segment of the mind devoid of | reason understand what reason is or grasp the information it would |
| Tx:21.52 | How can the segment of the mind devoid of reason understand what | reason is or grasp the information it would give? All sorts of |
| Tx:21.52 | of questions may arise in it, but if the basic question stems from | reason, it will not ask it. Like all that stems from reason, the |
| Tx:21.52 | stems from reason, it will not ask it. Like all that stems from | reason, the basic question is obvious, simple, and remains unasked. |
| Tx:21.52 | question is obvious, simple, and remains unasked. But think not | reason could not answer it. |
| Tx:21.53 | for Him arose and was fulfilled in the same instant. Such would your | reason tell you if you listened. Yet such is clearly not the ego's |
| Tx:21.55 | of it will come with any part. Here is the part you can accept. What | reason points to you can see because the witnesses on its behalf are |
| Tx:21.55 | the totally insane can disregard them, and you have gone past this. | Reason is a means which serves the Holy Spirit's purpose in its own |
| Tx:21.55 | and redirected from the goal of sin as are the others. For | reason is beyond the ego's range of means. |
| Tx:21.56 | misplaced and serve the great deceiver's needs as well as truth. But | reason has no place at all in madness, nor can it be adjusted to fit |
| Tx:21.56 | in madness, guiding perception toward what the mind has valued. But | reason enters not at all in this. For the perception would fall away |
| Tx:21.56 | not at all in this. For the perception would fall away at once if | reason were applied. There is no reason in insanity, for it depends |
| Tx:21.56 | would fall away at once if reason were applied. There is no | reason in insanity, for it depends entirely on reason's absence. The |
| Tx:21.57 | The part of mind where | reason lies was dedicated by your will in union with your Father's to |
| Tx:21.57 | the Holy Spirit's purpose accepted and accomplished both at once. | Reason is alien to insanity, and those who use it have gained a means |
| Tx:21.57 | applied to sin. Knowledge is far beyond attainment of any kind. But | reason can serve to open doors you closed against it. |
| Tx:21.58 | have asked the question which the ego will never ask. Does not your | reason tell you now the question must have come from something that |
| Tx:21.58 | you do not know but must belong to you? Faith and belief, upheld by | reason, cannot fail to lead to changed perception. And in this change |
| Tx:21.59 | Reason cannot see sin but can see errors and leads to their | |
| Tx:21.59 | to their correction. It does not value them, but their correction. | Reason will also tell you when you think you sin, you call for help. |
| Tx:21.59 | that you are damned. This you could spare him and yourself. For | reason would not make way for correction in you alone. |
| Tx:21.60 | refused by you without your brother. Sin would maintain it can. Yet | reason tells you that you cannot see your brother or yourself as |
| Tx:21.60 | himself apart from it? Sin would maintain you must be separate. But | reason tells you that this must be wrong. If you are joined, how |
| Tx:21.61 | and therefore unreal. The home of madness cannot be the home of | reason. Yet it is easy to leave the home of madness if you see |
| Tx:21.61 | of reason. Yet it is easy to leave the home of madness if you see | reason. You do not leave insanity by going somewhere else. You leave |
| Tx:21.61 | insanity by going somewhere else. You leave it simply by accepting | reason where madness was. Madness and reason see the same things, but |
| Tx:21.61 | leave it simply by accepting reason where madness was. Madness and | reason see the same things, but it is certain that they look upon |
| Tx:21.62 | Madness is an attack on | reason that drives it out of mind and takes its place. Reason does |
| Tx:21.62 | an attack on reason that drives it out of mind and takes its place. | Reason does not attack but takes the place of madness quietly, |
| Tx:21.62 | they see the body and let their madness tell them it is real. | Reason would be incapable of this. And if you would defend the body |
| Tx:21.62 | be incapable of this. And if you would defend the body against your | reason, you will not understand the body or yourself. |
| Tx:21.63 | to make its purpose real. To see the body as a barrier between what | reason tells you must be joined must be insane. Nor could you see it |
| Tx:21.63 | must be insane. Nor could you see it if you heard the voice of | reason. What can there be that stands between what is continuous? And |
| Tx:21.63 | in between, how can what enters part be kept away from other parts? | Reason would tell you this. But think what you must recognize if it |
| Tx:21.64 | fearful unless it disagrees with what you hold more dear than truth? | Reason will tell you that this fact is your release. Neither your |
| Tx:21.65 | Reason, like love, would reassure you and seeks not to frighten you. | |
| Tx:21.65 | be one with you. You are responsible for how he sees himself. And | reason tells you it is given you to change his whole mind, which is |
| Tx:21.65 | same instant is his whole salvation seen as complete with yours. | Reason is given you to understand that this is so. For reason, kind |
| Tx:21.65 | with yours. Reason is given you to understand that this is so. For | reason, kind as is the purpose for which it is the means, leads |
| Tx:21.66 | you? In madness, yes. And yet what madness sees must be dispelled by | reason. Reason assures you Heaven is what you want, and all you want. |
| Tx:21.66 | madness, yes. And yet what madness sees must be dispelled by reason. | Reason assures you Heaven is what you want, and all you want. Listen |
| Tx:21.66 | is what you want, and all you want. Listen to Him Who speaks with | reason and brings your reason into line with His. Be willing to let |
| Tx:21.66 | all you want. Listen to Him Who speaks with reason and brings your | reason into line with His. Be willing to let reason be the means by |
| Tx:21.66 | reason and brings your reason into line with His. Be willing to let | reason be the means by which He would direct you how to leave |
| Tx:21.66 | insanity behind. Hide not behind insanity in order to escape from | reason. What madness would conceal, the Holy Spirit still holds out |
| Tx:21.67 | You are your brother's savior. He is yours. | Reason speaks happily indeed of this. This gracious plan was given |
| Tx:21.68 | as one. And as his gratitude goes out to you who blessed him, | reason will tell you that it cannot be you stand apart from blessing. |
| Tx:21.68 | thanks your Father gives you for completing Him. And here alone does | reason tell you that you can understand what you must be. Your Father |
| Tx:21.72 | all. It could be seen attacking anyone with anything. Dreams have no | reason in them. A flower turns into a poisoned spear, a child becomes |
| Tx:21.74 | he has no enemy? Could he admit that no one made him powerless? | Reason would surely bid him seek no longer what is not there to find. |
| Tx:21.76 | last. For this one still seems fearful and unlike the others. Yet | reason would assure you they are all the same. We said this year |
| Tx:21.78 | to the last question you have left unanswered still. And let your | reason tell you that it must be answered and is answered in the other |
| Tx:21.81 | Why is the final question so important? | Reason will tell you why. It is the same as are the other three |
| Tx:21.88 | Reason will tell you that you cannot ask for happiness inconstantly. | |
| Tx:21.90 | you to recognize what He has given you? Here is the great appeal to | reason; the awareness of what is always there to see, the happiness |
| Tx:22.4 | [And here is sight of differences transformed to vision.] And | reason now can lead you to the logical conclusion of your union. It |
| Tx:22.5 | Let | reason take another step. If you attack whom God would heal and hate |
| Tx:22.6 | strange idea, which it does accurately describe, you think is you. | Reason would tell you that the world you see through eyes which are |
| Tx:22.7 | lead you, asking it to explain to you the world it sees, you have no | reason not to listen nor to suspect that what it tells you is not |
| Tx:22.7 | not to listen nor to suspect that what it tells you is not true. | Reason would tell you it cannot be true because you do not understand |
| Tx:22.8 | secrets be except another will that is your own, apart from His? | Reason would tell you that this is no secret that need be hidden as a |
| Tx:22.13 | this they could not do through bodies. What, then, has joined them? | Reason will tell you that they must have seen each other through a |
| Tx:22.13 | where his Self could be reborn in safety and in peace. Such did his | reason tell him; such he believed because it was the truth. |
| Tx:22.19 | Reason will tell you that the only way to escape from misery is to | |
| Tx:22.20 | Both | reason and the ego will tell you this, but what they make of it is |
| Tx:22.20 | guilt can be attained, then the belief in sin must be eternal. Yet | reason looks on this another way, for reason sees the source of an |
| Tx:22.20 | in sin must be eternal. Yet reason looks on this another way, for | reason sees the source of an idea as what will make it true or false. |
| Tx:22.20 | This must be so if the idea is like its source. Therefore, says | reason, if escape from guilt was given to the Holy Spirit as His |
| Tx:22.21 | It must be made. Faith and belief can fall to either side, but | reason tells you that misery lies only on one side and joy upon the |
| Tx:22.22 | And you will either escape from misery entirely or not at all. | Reason will tell you that there is no middle ground where you can |
| Tx:22.29 | The introduction of | reason into the ego's thought system is the beginning of its undoing. |
| Tx:22.29 | into the ego's thought system is the beginning of its undoing. For | reason and the ego are contradictory. Nor is it possible for them to |
| Tx:22.29 | reason's goal is to make plain and therefore obvious. You can see | reason. This is not a play on words, for here is the beginning of a |
| Tx:22.29 | what is obvious is not ambiguous. It can be understood. And here do | reason and the ego separate to go their different ways. |
| Tx:22.30 | on its belief you cannot learn this course. Share this belief, and | reason will be unable to see your errors and make way for their |
| Tx:22.30 | be unable to see your errors and make way for their correction. For | reason sees through errors, telling you what you thought was real is |
| Tx:22.30 | sees through errors, telling you what you thought was real is not. | Reason can see the difference between sin and mistakes because it |
| Tx:22.30 | looks on nothing that can be corrected. Thus does the ego damn and | reason save. |
| Tx:22.31 | Reason is not salvation in itself, but it makes way for peace and | |
| Tx:22.31 | across the road to peace. No one who looks on it without the help of | reason would try to pass it. The body's eyes behold it as solid |
| Tx:22.31 | granite, so thick it would be madness to attempt to pass it. Yet | reason sees through it easily because it is an error. The form it |
| Tx:22.33 | Reason will tell you that the form of error is not what makes it a | |
| Tx:22.35 | it is not true. It could not be reality, because it can be changed. | Reason will tell you that, if form is not reality, it must be an |
| Tx:22.37 | to see himself as causing sin by his desire to have sin real. Yet | reason sees a holy relationship as what it is—a common state of |
| Tx:22.45 | by force or anger nor by opposing them in any way. Merely by letting | reason tell you that they contradict reality. They go against what |
| Tx:22.46 | always to justify what goes against the truth, flies in the face of | reason, and makes no sense. Can this be justified? What can this be |
| Tx:22.55 | there is no sin. The form of error is no longer seen, and | reason, joined with love, looks quietly on all confusion, observing |
| Tx:23.19 | out of reason's sphere. Yet they appear to constitute an obstacle to | reason and to truth. Let us, then, look upon them calmly, that we may |
| Tx:23.29 | must be what you want but never found. And now you “understand” the | reason why you found it not. For it was taken from you by this enemy |
| Tx:23.30 | the missing factor in your madness that makes it “sane.” This is the | reason why you must attack. Here is what makes your vengeance |
| Tx:23.37 | conflict of illusions stands; senseless, impossible, and beyond all | reason, and yet perceived as an eternal barrier to Heaven. Illusions |
| Tx:24.4 | where the results of conflict are kept unknown and never brought to | reason to be considered sensible or not. And many senseless outcomes |

| Tx:19.102 | your friend or enemy? Choose which he is, remembering that you will | receive of him according to your choice. He has in him the power to |
| Tx:19.104 | There is no grace of Heaven that you cannot offer to each other and | receive from your most holy Friend. Let him withhold it not, for by |
| Tx:19.104 | it not, for by receiving it you offer it to him. [For he will | receive of you what you received of him.] Redemption has been given |
| Tx:19.104 | of him.] Redemption has been given you to give each other, and thus | receive it. Whom you forgive is free, and what you give you share. |
| Tx:19.106 | Look on your brother, and see in him the gift of God you would | receive. It is almost Easter, the time of resurrection. Let us give |
| Tx:19.106 | as you offer to the Holy Spirit this same gift. And giving it, | receive it of Him in return for what you gave. He leadeth you and me |
| Tx:20.6 | Only the mind can value, and only the mind decides on what it would | receive and give. And every gift it offers depends on what it wants. |
| Tx:20.6 | It will adorn its chosen home most carefully, making it ready to | receive the gifts it wants by offering them to those who come unto |
| Tx:20.11 | the veil. It has been carefully prepared for you, and it is ready to | receive you now. You will not see it with the body's eyes. Yet all |
| Tx:20.15 | other's holy altar where the strength and freedom wait, to offer and | receive the bright awareness that leads you home. The lamp is lit in |
| Tx:20.29 | from him to you. Your savior gives you only love, but what you would | receive of him is up to you. It lies in him to overlook all your |
| Tx:20.39 | all you want for him is peace. And what you want for him, you will | receive. |
| Tx:20.40 | has been established by his Father, and you will recognize it as you | receive his Father's gift through him. What is in him will shine so |
| Tx:20.43 | have faith that He Who sees the gift in both of you will offer and | receive it for you both. And through His vision will you see it, and |
| Tx:20.54 | behind and resting in the Everlasting Arms. Love's arms are open to | receive you and give you peace forever. |
| Tx:20.68 | brother sinless. All this is given, waiting on your desire but to | receive it. Vision is freely given to those who ask to see. |
| Tx:21.38 | of a body and by another body. The mind could neither ask it nor | receive it of itself. And no more could the body. The intention is in |
| Tx:21.53 | been accepted by the Son of God, for what God wills for him he must | receive. For God wills not apart from him, nor does the Will of God |
| Tx:21.67 | what has been given both of you. To give is no more blessed than to | receive. But neither is it less. |
| Tx:21.88 | cannot ask for happiness inconstantly. For if what you desire you | receive and happiness is constant, then you need ask for it but once |
| Tx:22.26 | function of an executioner you gave him for the one he has in truth? | Receive of him what God has given him for you, not what you tried to |
| Tx:22.44 | given him alone. Such is the function of a holy relationship—to | receive together and give as you received. Standing before the veil, |
| Tx:23.42 | from your brother, and you attack him. You give him nothing and | receive of him but what you gave. |
| Tx:24.17 | what makes no sound. Is it a sacrifice to give up nothing and to | receive the love of God forever? |
| Tx:24.20 | be reached. Here in this holy place does truth stand waiting to | receive you both in silent blessing and in peace so real and so |
| Tx:24.26 | sin. How can he then give his forgiveness wholly, when he would not | receive it for himself? For it is sure he would receive it wholly the |
| Tx:24.26 | when he would not receive it for himself? For it is sure he would | receive it wholly the instant that he gave it so. And thus his secret |
| Tx:25.79 | are reluctant to accept it. It is saved for you until reluctance to | receive it disappears and you are willing it be given you. God's |
| Tx:25.85 | been deprived. A miracle can never be received because another could | receive it not. Only forgiveness offers miracles. And pardon must be |
| Tx:25.86 | must be to take forgiveness for yourself. The miracle that you | receive, you give. Each one becomes an illustration of the law on |
| Tx:26.16 | Think then how great your own release will be when you are willing to | receive correction for all your problems. You will not keep one, for |

| Tx:26.28 | lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the Son of God Himself comes to | receive each gift that brings him nearer to his home. Not one is |
| Tx:26.46 | and only He to whom they have been given can make sure that you | receive them. He will place them on your throne when you make room |
| Tx:26.68 | that you see an interval between the time when you forgive and will | receive the benefits of trust. This but reflects the little you would |
| Tx:27.10 | a purpose to be given that it may fulfill the function that it will | receive. |
| Tx:27.11 | loveliness proclaim the truth and value that it represents. Let it | receive the power to represent an endless life, forever unattacked. |
| Tx:27.35 | A Power wholly limitless has come, not to destroy, but to | receive Its own. There is no choice of function anywhere. The choice |
| Tx:27.43 | In the holy instant, you can bring the question to the answer and | receive the answer that was made for you. |
| Tx:28.44 | of all the seeds of sickness and of sin. And here the Father will | receive His Son, because His Son was gracious to himself. |
| Tx:30.15 | 4. If you are so unwilling to | receive you cannot even let your question go, you can begin to change |
| Tx:31.24 | form in him, but it is not the form you answer to. He asks and you | receive, for you have come with but one purpose—that you both may |
| W1:28.4 | defined. And the purpose of these exercises is to ask questions and | receive the answers. In saying, “Above all else I want to see this |
| W1:42.2 | strength. And what He gives is truly given. This means that you can | receive it any time and anywhere, wherever you are and in whatever |
| W1:69.8 | but you can indeed be sure that it is given you, and you will yet | receive it. Try, as you attempt to go through the clouds to the |
| W1:77.1 | You are entitled to miracles because of what you are. You will | receive miracles because of what God is. And you will offer miracles |
| W1:77.6 | at last. The answer is a simple statement of a simple fact. You will | receive the assurance that you seek. |
| W1:77.9 | on yourself to find them, you are therefore fully entitled to | receive them whenever you ask. |
| W1:80.5 | peace that your acceptance brings be given you. Close your eyes and | receive your reward. Recognize that your problems have been solved. |
| W1:R2.3 | There is a message waiting for you. Be confident that you will | receive it. Remember that it belongs to you and that you want it. Do |
| W1:97.12 | that you are something else. The Holy Spirit gives you peace today. | Receive His words, and offer them to Him. |
| W1:100.8 | indeed been wrong in your belief that sacrifice is asked. You but | receive according to God's plan and never lose or sacrifice or die. |
| W1:104.1 | to give you what He wills. Yet must there be a place made ready to | receive His gifts. They are not welcomed gladly by a mind which has |
| W1:105.1 | to us. And we will try to understand these gifts increase as we | receive them. They are not like to the gifts the world can give, in |
| W1:105.3 | this course has set is to reverse your view of giving, so you can | receive. For giving has become a source of fear, and so you would |
| W1:105.3 | of fear, and so you would avoid the only means by which you can | receive. |
| W1:105.6 | His Son as well. He cannot give through loss. No more can you. | Receive His gift of joy and peace today, and He will thank you for |
| W1:105.9 | “God's peace and joy are mine,” for you have given what you would | receive. |
| W1:105.11 | which call on Him to give you what He wills to give and wills you to | receive. |
| W1:105.12 | deny God's gift to him, see it as but another chance to let yourself | receive the gifts of God as yours. Then bless your brother |
| W1:106.7 | the world through you. The Bringer of all miracles has need that you | receive them first and thus become the joyous giver of what you |
| W1:106.9 | be still and listen to the truth. What does it mean to give and to | receive? |
| W1:106.10 | a way to lose. And so the world becomes ready to understand and to | receive. |
| W1:106.12 | of Him. Do not forget today to reinforce your choice to hear and to | receive the Word by this reminder, given to yourself as often as is |
| W1:106.13 | I am the messenger of God today. My voice is His, to give what I | receive. |
| W1:108.7 | in the obvious because it has results we cannot miss. To give is to | receive. Today we will attempt to offer peace to everyone and see how |
| W1:108.9 | To give and to | receive are one in truth. I will receive what I am giving now. |
| W1:108.9 | To give and to receive are one in truth. I will | receive what I am giving now. |
| W1:108.12 | Say each one slowly, and then pause a while, expecting to | receive the gift you gave, and it will come to you in the amount in |
| W1:108.14 | To give and to | receive are one in truth. |
| W1:119.3 | [108] To give and to | receive are one in truth. I will forgive all things today, that I may |
| W1:119.7 | To give and to | receive are one in truth. |
| W1:121.8 | and at night another ten to learning how to give forgiveness and | receive forgiveness too. |
| W1:122.6 | waits for you within? Forgive and be forgiven. As you give, you will | receive. There is no plan but this for the salvation of the Son of |
| W1:122.12 | Before the light you will | receive today the world will fade until it disappears, and you will |
| W1:122.12 | have no words to picture. Now we walk directly into light, and we | receive the gifts which have been held in store for us since time |
| W1:123.6 | Receive the thanks of God today, as you give thanks to Him. For He | |
| W1:123.7 | Receive His thanks and offer yours to Him for 15 minutes twice today. | |
| W1:123.8 | Receive His thanks, and you will understand how lovingly He holds you | |
| W1:124.3 | What we | receive is our eternal gift to those who follow after and to those |
| W1:125.10 | yourself you have a special purpose for this day—in quiet to | receive the Word of God. |
| W1:133.17 | And then | receive what waits for everyone who reaches unencumbered to the gate |
| W1:135.23 | which blocks the truth from entering our minds. Today we will | receive instead of plan, that we may give instead of organize. And we |
| W1:135.26 | All your defenses have been aimed at not receiving what you will | receive today. And in the light and joy of simple truth, you will but |
| W1:137.10 | you. But you are never healed alone. And legions upon legions will | receive the gift which you receive when you are healed. |
| W1:137.10 | alone. And legions upon legions will receive the gift which you | receive when you are healed. |
| W1:137.13 | the peace of God. Is not a minute of the hour worth the giving to | receive a gift like this? Is not a little time a small expense to |
| W1:137.16 | this very day. And as you rest in quiet, be prepared to give as you | receive, to hold but what you give, and to receive the Word of God to |
| W1:137.16 | prepared to give as you receive, to hold but what you give, and to | receive the Word of God to take the place of all the foolish thoughts |
| W1:R4.9 | and to place His Mind in charge of all the thoughts you will | receive that day. They will not come from you alone, for they will |
| W1:R4.11 | endless quiet, perfect certainty, and all our Father wills that we | receive as the inheritance we have of Him. |
| W1:143.1 | [125] In quiet I | receive God's Word today. |
| W1:154.5 | the right of him who does nor ask why he has chosen those who will | receive the message that he brings. It is enough that he accept it, |
| W1:154.8 | Would you | receive the messages of God? For thus do you become His messengers. |
| W1:154.8 | not know that they are yours and do not recognize them. No one can | receive and understand he has received until he gives. For in the |
| W1:154.9 | You who are now the messengers of God | receive His messages, for that is part of your appointed role. He has |
| W1:154.12 | Let us but learn this lesson for today: we will not recognize what we | receive until we give it. You have heard this said a hundred ways, a |
| W1:154.12 | lacking still. But this is sure—until belief is given it, you will | receive a thousand miracles and then receive a thousand more but will |
| W1:154.12 | belief is given it, you will receive a thousand miracles and then | receive a thousand more but will not know that God Himself has left |
| W1:158.10 | Thus do you learn to give as you | receive. And thus Christ's vision looks on you as well. This lesson |
| W1:159.2 | whole. There is no miracle you cannot give, for all are given you. | Receive them now by opening the storehouse of your mind where they |
| W1:164.7 | We will not judge today. We will | receive but what is given us from judgment made beyond the world. Our |
| W1:165.4 | gift, how changed your mind will be before it comes to you. Ask to | receive, and it is given you. Conviction lies within it. Till you |
| W1:165.4 | uncertainty remains. Yet God is fair. Sureness is not required to | receive what only your acceptance can bestow. |
| W1:168.5 | It is a new and holy day today, for we | receive what has been given us. Our faith lies in the Giver, not our |
| W1:168.6 | as we come to Him, for what He has prepared for us He gives and we | receive. Such is His Will because He loves His Son. To Him we pray |
| W1:169.11 | that miracles are laid, to be returned by you from holy instants you | receive through grace in your experience to all who see the light |
| W1:174.3 | [158] Today I learn to give as I | receive. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:183.8 | thus. He cannot hear requests that He be not Himself or that His Son | receive another name than His. |
| W1:184.14 | them. Now our sight is blessed with blessings we can give as we | receive. |
| W1:185.2 | it is given him. For that is all he wants, and that is all he will | receive. Many have said these words. But few indeed have meant them. |
| W1:187.10 | has joined us all as one, we stand in blessedness and give as we | receive. The Name of God is on our lips. And as we look within, we |
| W1:189.8 | God will do His part in joyful and immediate response. Ask and | receive. But do not make demands nor point the road to God by which |
| W1:189.10 | to You. And it is unto You we look for them. Our hands are open to | receive Your gifts. We have no thoughts we think apart from You and |
| W1:197.9 | Give thanks as you | receive it. Be you free of all ingratitude to anyone who makes your |
| W1:198.1 | undone. Then are you free, for freedom is your gift, and you can now | receive the gift you gave. |
| W2:228.2 | about myself are dreams. I let them go today. And I stand ready to | receive Your Word alone for what I really am. |
| W2:254.1 | In deepest silence, I would come to You to hear Your Voice and to | receive Your Word. I have no prayer but this: I come to You to ask |
| W2:291.2 | This day my mind is quiet to | receive the thoughts You offer me. And I accept what comes from You |
| W2:303.2 | It is not Christ that can be crucified. Safe in Your arms, let me | receive Your Son. |
| W2:304.2 | darkness to the light, from sin to holiness. Let me forgive and thus | receive salvation for the world. It is Your gift, my Father, given me |
| W2:322.1 | God's ancient messages to me. His memory abides in every gift that I | receive of Him. And every dream serves only to conceal the Self which |
| W2:339.1 | think that joy is painful, threatening, and dangerous. Everyone will | receive what he requests. But he can be confused indeed about the |
| W2:349.1 | one that I accept gives me a miracle to give. And giving as I would | receive, I learn Your healing miracles belong to me. |
| W2:357.1 | Your Voice instructs me patiently to hear Your Word and give as I | receive. And as I look upon Your Son today, I hear Your Voice |
| W2:361.1 | but stillness and a tranquil, open mind, these are the gifts I will | receive of Him. He is in charge by my request. And He will hear and |
| M:6.4 | of his gifts? Given by God to God, who in this holy exchange can | receive less than everything? |
| M:14.2 | It is His Call God's teachers answer, turning to Him in silence to | receive His Word. The world will end when all things in it have been |
| M:21.1 | The motivating factor is prayer, or asking. What you ask for, you | receive. But this refers to the prayer of the heart, not to the words |
| M:22.7 | teacher recognizes that they are the same mistake. Herein does he | receive Atonement, for he withdraws his judgment from the Son of God, |
received (131) | ||
| Tx:1.11 | of the created with the Creator. Through prayer love is | received, and through miracles love is expressed. |
| Tx:2.20 | Your words should reflect only mercy because that is what you have | received, and that is what you should give. |
| Tx:2.25 | be reserved only for truth. You should truly give as you have truly | received. The Golden Rule can work effectively only on this basis. |
| Tx:5.57 | forgiven must devote themselves first to healing, because having | received the idea of healing, they must give it to hold it. The full |
| Tx:5.82 | He has been given you so freely by God, you must give Him as you | received Him. |
| Tx:8.39 | all of us. I bring God's peace back to all His Children, because I | received it of Him for us all. Nothing can prevail against our united |
| Tx:8.109 | that it will be lost. There are many answers which you have already | received but have not yet heard. I assure you that they are waiting |
| Tx:9.20 | carefully now. By definition, he is trying to give what he has not | received. If he is a theologian, he may begin with the premise, “I am |
| Tx:10.67 | you. For it is done already, and unless you give all that you have | received, you will not know that your Redeemer liveth and that you |
| Tx:11.70 | you really receive anything else from them. If you think you have | received anything else, it is because you have looked within and |
| Tx:12.51 | you. For the light of perfect vision is freely given as it is freely | received and can be accepted only without limit. In this one still |
| Tx:12.54 | you, who gave them joy. They are your guides to joy, for having | received it of you, they would keep it. You have established them as |
| Tx:13.86 | of what you have acknowledged. Yet truth is offered first to be | received, even as God gave it first to His Son. The first in time |
| Tx:15.32 | to accept anything for yourself. But you will gladly give, having | received. The host of God need not seek to find anything. |
| Tx:15.42 | that has decided to oppose it. For the holy instant is given and | received with equal willingness, being the acceptance of the single |
| Tx:16.77 | What God has given you is truly given and will be truly | received. For God's gifts have no reality apart from your receiving |
| Tx:16.77 | the Holy Spirit teaches you is to remind you that you have | received what God has given you. |
| Tx:17.54 | lose the instant but to make it powerless in its effects. You have | received the holy instant, but you have established a condition in |
| Tx:17.54 | is impossible to deny yourself and recognize what has been given and | received by you. |
| Tx:17.79 | you now withhold from it. Your release is certain. Give as you have | received. And demonstrate that you have risen far beyond any |
| Tx:18.27 | frightening yourselves. The gift is given forever, for God Himself | received it. You cannot take it back. You have accepted God. The |
| Tx:19.10 | it. By faith you offer the gift of freedom from the past, which you | received. You do not use anything your brother has done before to |
| Tx:19.76 | but they have not accepted it, and what is offered must also be | received to be truly given. For the Holy Spirit, too, is a |
| Tx:19.103 | loves it. And he will give it truly, for it will be both offered and | received. |
| Tx:19.104 | it you offer it to him. [For he will receive of you what you | received of him.] Redemption has been given you to give each other, |
| Tx:19.105 | again; to which we will return until redemption is accomplished and | received. Think who your brother is before you would condemn him. And |
| Tx:19.109 | giver of guilt or of salvation, so will his offering be seen and so | received. The crucified give pain because they are in pain. But the |
| Tx:20.4 | veil looking between the snow white petals of the lilies you have | received and given as your gift, you will behold each other's face |
| Tx:20.6 | Gifts are not made through bodies if they be truly given and | received. For bodies can neither offer nor accept; hold out nor take. |
| Tx:20.9 | body's eyes, and they can see but thorns. Yet you have asked for and | received another sight. Those who accept the Holy Spirit's purpose as |
| Tx:20.11 | God Himself could give. For what God gave the Holy Spirit, you have | received. The Son of God looks unto you for his release. For you have |
| Tx:20.28 | Spirit merely gives everything to God, Who has already given and | received all that is true. The untrue He has neither received nor |
| Tx:20.28 | given and received all that is true. The untrue He has neither | received nor given. |
| Tx:20.32 | The sinless give as they | received. See, then, the power of sinlessness within your brother and |
| Tx:21.15 | achieve. And everything that seems to happen to me, I asked for and | received as I had asked. |
| Tx:21.88 | remains uncertain, and God's giving must be incomplete unless it is | received. |
| Tx:22.7 | You have | received no messages at all you understand. For you have listened to |
| Tx:22.10 | Of all the messages you have | received and failed to understand, this course alone is open to your |
| Tx:22.11 | else” you thought was you. He was not given there, nor was | received by anything except yourself. For no two people can unite |
| Tx:22.42 | has not yet been given to everyone. For you are here to let it be | received. God's offer still is open, yet it waits acceptance. From |
| Tx:22.42 | open, yet it waits acceptance. From you who have accepted it is it | received. Into your joined hands is it safely given, for you who |
| Tx:22.43 | love of God, the grace is given to be the givers of what they have | received. And so they learn that it is theirs forever. All barriers |
| Tx:22.44 | How easy is it to offer this miracle to everyone! No one who has | received it for himself could find it difficult. For by receiving it, |
| Tx:22.44 | of a holy relationship—to receive together and give as you | received. Standing before the veil, it still seems difficult. But |
| Tx:22.58 | and where and when is up to Him. He will bestow them where they are | received and welcomed. He will use every one of them for peace. Nor |
| Tx:25.79 | and offered anyone who but holds out his hand in willingness they be | received. Nor is the treasure less as it is given out. Each gift |
| Tx:25.79 | a gift from Him. Yet would His justice not be satisfied until it is | received by everyone. |
| Tx:25.85 | Seek to deprive, and you have been deprived. A miracle can never be | received because another could receive it not. Only forgiveness |
| Tx:25.87 | justice can accomplish when it is offered to everyone alike. It is | received and given equally. It is awareness that giving and receiving |
| Tx:26.15 | as surely as on him. Nor will the Holy Spirit be content until it is | received by everyone. For what you give to Him is everyone's, and by |
| Tx:26.19 | pure and wholly simple. Here is sin denied and everything that is | received instead. |
| Tx:26.64 | so. And in your hands does all salvation lie, to be both offered and | received as one. |
| Tx:27.11 | have healing as its purpose. Then will it send forth the message it | received and by its health and loveliness proclaim the truth and |
| Tx:27.41 | your wishes from the answer, so it can be given you and also be | received. The answer is provided everywhere. Yet it is only here it |
| Tx:27.44 | the instant it is born. And it is born the instant it is offered and | received. No one can ask another to be healed. But he can let himself |
| Tx:27.44 | he can let himself be healed and thus offer the other what he has | received. Who can bestow upon another what he does not have? And who |
| Tx:27.48 | Come to the holy instant and be healed, for nothing that is there | received is left behind on your returning to the world. And being |
| Tx:28.46 | Who would want to have the “benefits” of sickness when he has | received the simple happiness of health? What God has given cannot be |
| Tx:29.14 | do not see how much you now can give because of everything you have | received. Yet He Who entered in but waits for you to come where you |
| Tx:29.34 | hold on every vain illusion of the world. And being empty, they | received instead a brother's hand in which completion lay. |
| Tx:30.32 | from the world by your decision for a happy day. And as you have | received, so must you give. |
| W1:76.10 | there is no loss under the laws of God. Payment is neither given nor | received. Exchange cannot be made, there are no substitutes, and |
| W1:83.5 | that come from God are one. They come from Oneness and must be | received as one. Fulfilling my function is my happiness because both |
| W1:97.10 | through you, the Holy Spirit will accept this gift which you | received of Him, increase its power, and give it back to you. |
| W1:99.5 | The Holy Spirit holds this plan of God exactly as it was | received of Him within the Mind of God and in your own. It is apart |
| W1:104.1 | His gifts. They are not welcomed gladly by a mind which has instead | received the gifts it made where His belong, as substitutes for them. |
| W1:105.2 | meant to be a pledge of debt to be repaid with more than was | received by him who took the gift. |
| W1:106.7 | you receive them first and thus become the joyous giver of what you | received. Thus does salvation start and thus it ends; when everything |
| W1:106.10 | answer. Your request is one whose answer has been waiting long to be | received by you. It will begin the ministry for which you came and |
| W1:109.11 | for thus our rest is made complete, and what we give today we have | received already. Time is not the guardian of what we give today. We |
| W1:122.7 | world. The world can give no gifts of any value to a mind which has | received what God has given as its own. God wills salvation be |
| W1:122.7 | has received what God has given as its own. God wills salvation be | received today and that the intricacies of your dreams no longer hide |
| W1:122.15 | everything I want. Today I have accepted this as true. Today I have | received the gifts of God. |
| W1:123.2 | real extent of all the gains which you have made; the gifts you have | received. Be glad today in loving thankfulness your Father has not |

| W1:134.9 | way your true forgiveness opens up to you. For if one brother has | received this gift of you, the door is open to yourself. There is a |

| W1:136.13 | it knows with perfect certainty that what God wills for you must be | received. |
| W1:R4.11 | enough to see the gifts which they contain for you, and let them be | received where they were meant to be. We add no other thoughts, but |
| W1:154.8 | are appointed now. And yet you wait to give the messages you have | received, and so you do not know that they are yours and do not |
| W1:154.8 | and do not recognize them. No one can receive and understand he has | received until he gives. For in the giving is his own acceptance of |
| W1:154.8 | until he gives. For in the giving is his own acceptance of what he | received. |
| W1:154.9 | part of your appointed task is yet to be accomplished. He Who has | received for you the messages of God would have them be received by |
| W1:154.9 | He Who has received for you the messages of God would have them be | received by you as well. For thus do you identify with Him and claim |
| W1:154.15 | to our sight and leap into our hands, and we will understand what we | received. |
| W1:158.2 | You have | received all this. No one who walks the world but has received it. It |
| W1:158.2 | You have received all this. No one who walks the world but has | received it. It is not this knowledge which you give, for that is |
| W1:159.1 | No one can give what he has not | received. To give a thing requires first you have it in your own |
| W1:159.1 | Salvation teaches otherwise. To give is how to recognize you have | received. It is the proof that what you have is yours. |
| W1:159.6 | contribute to your happiness. All are laid here already. All can be | received but for the asking. Here the door is never locked, and no |
| W1:159.8 | He looks on them. And they become His messengers who give as they | received. |
| W1:165.5 | be sure that you request the only thing you want. But when you have | received, you will be sure you have the treasure you have always |
| W1:166.1 | And yet unless your will is one with His, His gifts are not | received. But what would make you think there is another will than |
| W1:166.15 | now. For God entrusts the giving of His gifts to all who have | received them. He has shared His joy with you. And now you go to |
| W1:169.1 | who have prepared a table where it can be gently laid and willingly | received, an altar clean and holy for the gift. |
| W1:169.6 | recognition that its will is God's has been completely given and | received completely. It returns the mind into the endless present, |
| W1:170.14 | in You. Your peace is ours. And we bless the world with what we have | received from You alone. We choose again and make our choice for all |
| W1:170.14 | they are one with us. We bring them Your salvation as we have | received it now. And we give thanks for them who render us complete. |
| W1:175.2 | [159] I give the miracles I have | received. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:185.13 | everyone must gain whenever any gift of God has been requested and | received by anyone. God gives but to unite. To take away is |
| W1:188.3 | everyone unites in giving thanks to you who give and you who have | received. |
| W1:193.3 | created One Who could perceive what form this law should take, to be | received by every mind which had forgotten it as it exists in Heaven |
| W1:194.2 | salvation thus becomes the gift you give the world because you have | received. |
| W1:197.1 | you find external gratitude and lavish thanks. Your gifts must be | received with honor, lest they be withdrawn. And so you think God's |
| W1:197.3 | who honor them and give them fitting thanks, for it is you who have | received the gifts. |
| W1:197.4 | It does not matter if your gifts seem lost and ineffectual. They are | received where they are given. In your gratitude are they accepted |
| W2:I.10 | things be healed. We will accept the way God's plan will end, as we | received the way it started. Now it is complete. This year has |
| W2:224.1 | the world. There is no gift but this that can be either given or | received. This is reality, and only this. This is illusion's end. It |
| W2:WS.5 | here we give salvation to the world, for it is here salvation was | received. The song of our rejoicing is the call to all the world that |
| W2:234.2 | the gifts You have bestowed on us, for all the loving help we have | received, for Your eternal patience, and the Word which You have |
| W2:242.2 | for anything that we may think we want. Give us what You would have | received by us. You know all our desires and our needs. And You will |
| W2:245.2 | so we go in peace. To all the world we give the message that we have | received. And thus we come to hear the Voice of God, Who speaks to us |
| W2:316.1 | my Father loves. His grace is given me in every gift a brother has | received throughout all time and past all time as well. My treasure |
| W2:WIM.2 | A miracle contains the gift of grace, for it is given and | received as one. And thus it illustrates the law of truth the world |
| W2:343.2 | Salvation has no cost. It is a gift that must be freely given and | received, and it is this that we would learn today. |
| W2:345.2 | tired world. It will find rest today, for we will offer what we have | received. |
| M:6.2 | it is welcome it is there. Where healing has been given, it will be | received. And what is time before the gifts of God? We have referred |
| M:6.2 | if he has offered healing and it does not appear to have been | received. It is not up to him to judge when his gift should be |
| M:6.2 | when his gift should be accepted. Let him be certain it has been | received and trust that it will be accepted when it is recognized as |
| M:7.1 | He lacked the trust that makes for giving truly, and so he has not | received the benefit of his gift. |
| M:7.2 | love. This is impossible. Having offered love, only love can be | received. |
| M:7.3 | teacher of God is a miracle worker because he gives the gifts he has | received. Yet he must first accept them. He need do no more, nor is |
| M:7.3 | it. If he doubts this, let him remember Who gave the gift and Who | received it. Thus is his doubt corrected. He thought the gifts of God |
| M:15.1 | around the world, setting it free as God's Final Judgment on him is | received. This is the judgment in which salvation lies. This is the |
| M:21.3 | of the heart asks for this, this will be given because this will be | received. It is impossible that the prayer of the heart remain |
| M:22.6 | that must show him this. Healing is very simple. Atonement is | received and offered. Having been received, it must be accepted. It |
| M:22.6 | is very simple. Atonement is received and offered. Having been | received, it must be accepted. It is in the receiving, then, that |

| Tx:1.82 | the need for time. In the longitudinal or horizontal plane, the | recognition of the true equality of all the members of the Sonship |
| Tx:1.83 | might have taken thousands of years. It does this by the underlying | recognition of perfect equality and holiness between the doer and the |
| Tx:1.89 | difference. A need implies lack by definition. It involves the | recognition that you would be better off in a state which is somehow |

| Tx:2.89 | not behave as he did. While expressions like “think big” give some | recognition to the power of thought, they still come nowhere near the |
| Tx:3.42 | understand it. This makes the parts strangers to each other, without | recognition. This is the essence of the fear-prone condition in which |
| Tx:3.47 | attack. What man perceives as its attack is merely his own vague | recognition of the fact that it can always be remembered, never |
| Tx:3.63 | is automatically suspended, and this is the process which enables | recognition to replace perception. |
| Tx:4.28 | which ego thinking is capable. That is because it contains a hint of | recognition that the ego is not the self. Undermining the ego's |
| Tx:4.87 | of God, however, are immediately recognized as eternal. Since this | recognition is made by you and not the ego, the recognition itself |
| Tx:4.87 | eternal. Since this recognition is made by you and not the ego, the | recognition itself establishes that you and your ego cannot be |

| Tx:6.95 | for effort and call upon the being which you both have and are. This | recognition is wholly without effort since it is already true and |
| Tx:7.37 | the laws of God and recognizing their universality. Without this | recognition, you have made the laws themselves meaningless to you. |
| Tx:7.59 | The ego therefore opposes all appreciation, all | recognition, all sane perception, and all knowledge. It perceives |
| Tx:7.99 | of your identification with His, but your state of mind and your | recognition of what is in your mind depend at any given moment on |

| Tx:10.76 | anything you perceive. Not one thought you hold is wholly true. The | recognition of this is your firm beginning. You are not misguided; |

| Tx:14.57 | God Himself, Who wills to be with His Son forever, will bless each | recognition of His Son with all the love He holds for him. Nor will |

| Tx:15.40 | time in which your mind is open, both to receive and give. It is the | recognition that all minds are in communication. It therefore seeks |
| Tx:15.62 | only need the aspects of the Son of God share equally, and by this | recognition you will join with me in offering what is needed. |
| Tx:15.78 | there is no desire to exclude anyone from your completion in sudden | recognition of the value of his part in it. In the protection of your |
| Tx:15.87 | instant, where the Great Rays replace the body in awareness, the | recognition of relationships without limits is given you. But to see |
| Tx:15.97 | are its host. The ego will never let you perceive this, since this | recognition would make it homeless. For when this recognition dawns |
| Tx:15.97 | this, since this recognition would make it homeless. For when this | recognition dawns clearly, you will not be deceived by any form the |
| Tx:15.100 | recognizing the one decision which must be made. And yet it is the | recognition of the decision just as it is that makes the decision so |
| Tx:16.12 | them. And when you are told about it, you cannot understand it. The | recognition of the part as whole and of the whole in every part is |
| Tx:16.69 | faith, and it is His faith you share with Him there. Out of your | recognition of your unwillingness for your release, His perfect |
| Tx:17.46 | without attraction, and its structure is “threatened” by the | recognition of its inappropriateness for meeting its new purpose. The |
| Tx:19.28 | mistakes. On this you share His vision. Yet you do not share His | recognition of the difference between time and eternity. And when |
| Tx:19.94 | drive the Holy Spirit from you fades in the presence of the quiet | recognition that you love Him. The exaltation of the body is given up |

| Tx:21.23 | holy instant is not an instant of creation but of recognition. For | recognition comes of vision and suspended judgment. Then only is it |

| Tx:22.14 | is time to what was always so? Think what that instant brought—the | recognition that the “something else” you thought was you is an |
| Tx:25.35 | for a while, a little while, in twisted forms too far away for | recognition and are gone forever. And in the sunlight you will stand |
| Tx:26.24 | specialness and now is union? All illusions are but one. And in the | recognition this is so lies the ability to give up all attempts to |
| Tx:26.55 | obstacles which you have placed between the Heaven where you are and | recognition of where and what you are. Facts are unchanged. Yet facts |
| Tx:28.3 | for healing represents an effort to do anything at all. It is a | recognition that you have no needs which mean that something must be |
| Tx:28.18 | is the only Cause of everything. It has but one effect. And in that | recognition, causelessness is given no effects and none are seen. A |

| W1:65.1 | salvation as your only function necessarily entails two phases: the | recognition of salvation as your function and the relinquishment of |
| W1:70.3 | it is salvation. It may not, however, be clear to you why the | recognition that guilt is in your own mind entails the realization |
| W1:70.8 | by repeating the idea for today, adding a statement signifying your | recognition that salvation comes from nothing outside of you. You |
| W1:73.10 | We will begin our longer practice periods with the | recognition that God's plan for salvation, and only His, is wholly in |
| W1:74.2 | Let us try to recognize this today and experience the peace this | recognition brings. |
| W1:76.3 | Think of the freedom in the | recognition that you are not bound by all the strange and twisted |
| W1:79.9 | recognizing that there is only one problem and one answer. In this | recognition are all problems resolved. In this recognition there is |
| W1:79.9 | one answer. In this recognition are all problems resolved. In this | recognition there is peace. |

| W1:124.7 | ourselves at one with Him, so that the world may share our | recognition of reality. In our experience the world is freed; as we |
| W1:138.5 | on learning. But the truth cannot be learned but only recognized. In | recognition its acceptance lies, and as it is accepted, it is known. |
| W1:152.3 | Salvation is the | recognition that the truth is true and nothing else is true. This you |
| W1:153.6 | Defenselessness is strength. It testifies to | recognition of the Christ in you. Perhaps you will recall the course |
| W1:158.8 | and must be taught by all who would achieve it. It requires but the | recognition that the world cannot give anything that faintly can |
| W1:160.6 | alien thought to be Itself. And It will call Its own unto Itself, in | recognition of what is Its own. |
| W1:162.6 | bless the world, for you have recognized the Son of God, and in your | recognition is the world's. |
| W1:169.6 | nor even think of this at all. It comes to every mind when total | recognition that its will is God's has been completely given and |
| W1:188.1 | their eyes. The light is in them now. Enlightenment is but a | recognition, not a change at all. Light is not of the world, yet you |
| W2:307.2 | conflict cannot come because we join our holy will with God's in | recognition that they are but one. |

| M:10.3 | of our curriculum, unlike the goal of the world's learning, is the | recognition that judgment in the usual sense is impossible. This is |
| M:12.4 | Yet what makes them God's teachers is their | recognition of the proper purpose of the body. As they advance in |
| M:12.4 | because of their Source. From this understanding will come the | recognition in this new teacher of God of what the body's purpose |
| M:16.9 | lessons will but lead to this and bring this goal nearer to | recognition. For magic of any kind, in all its forms, simply does |
| M:16.10 | temptation to accept magic as true must be abandoned through his | recognition not that it is fearful, not that it is sinful, not that |
| M:22.4 | mistakes and healing all perception. Healing is the result of the | recognition by God's teacher of Who it is that is in need of healing. |

| Tx:2.64 | miracle worker does accept it, he places himself in a position to | recognize that those who need to be healed are simply those who have |
| Tx:2.80 | will to do. There is no strain in doing God's Will as soon as you | recognize that it is also your own. |
| Tx:2.87 | The need for the remedy inspired its creation. As long as you | recognize only the need for the remedy, you will remain fearful. |
| Tx:2.90 | It is hard to | recognize that thought and belief combine into a power surge that can |

| Tx:3.16 | Be very sure that you | recognize how utterly impossible this assumption really is and how |
| Tx:3.31 | All your difficulties ultimately stem from the fact that you do not | recognize or know yourselves, each other, or God. To recognize means |
| Tx:3.31 | that you do not recognize or know yourselves, each other, or God. To | recognize means to “know again,” implying that you knew before. You |
| Tx:3.35 | makes it possible for you to know him. However, it is not until you | recognize him that you can know him. While you ask questions about |

| Tx:3.56 | forgiveness is nothing more than a request that we may be able to | recognize something we already have. In electing to perceive instead |
| Tx:3.63 | yourselves and your brothers totally without judgment. When you | recognize what you and your brothers are, you will realize that |

| Tx:4.26 | state [as an example] of how the mind can work, provided you fully | recognize that it need not work that way. Why are you surprised that |
| Tx:4.67 | mind. I am your vigilance in this, because you are too confused to | recognize your own hope. I was not mistaken. Your minds will elect to |
| Tx:4.73 | you should seek blindly and desperately for something you would not | recognize. Meaningful seeking is consciously undertaken, consciously |
| Tx:4.83 | The essential thing to remember is that the ego does not | recognize the real source of its perceived threat, and if you |
| Tx:5.34 | him. See him through the Holy Spirit in his mind, and you will | recognize Him in yours. What you acknowledge in your brother you are |
| Tx:5.41 | it is still much stronger than the ego, even though the ego does not | recognize it. The Holy Spirit recognizes it perfectly, because it is |

| Tx:5.95 | that is how you feel. Therefore, the first step in the undoing is to | recognize that you actively decided wrongly but can as actively |
| Tx:6.58 | merely reassure them that they are safe now. Then you train them to | recognize the difference between sleeping and waking, so that they |
| Tx:7.27 | in need of allies. You who are not at war must look for brothers and | recognize all whom you see as brothers, because only equals are at |
| Tx:7.31 | be magic and therefore would not be real healing. You do, however, | recognize the Spirit that is already there and thereby reawaken it. |
| Tx:7.47 | constant and so vital in its power for change that a Son of God can | recognize his power in one instant and change the world in the next. |
| Tx:7.63 | for all time. [This requires vigilance only as long as you do not | recognize what is true.] While you believe that two totally |
| Tx:7.71 | all of the laws of God. Stated positively,] the law requires you to | recognize only part of reality to appreciate all of it. Mind is too |
| Tx:7.86 | in turn forces them to engage in compulsive activity in order not to | recognize this. You cannot perpetuate an illusion about another |
| Tx:7.101 | You no more | recognize what is painful than you know what is joyful and are in |
| Tx:7.111 | The Majesty of God is there for you to | recognize and appreciate and know. Perceiving the Majesty of God as |
| Tx:7.111 | is to accept your own inheritance. God gives only equally. If you | recognize His gift in anyone else, you have acknowledged what He has |
| Tx:7.112 | his power to create and yours. He cannot have lost what you | recognize, and you must have the glory you see in him. He is a |
| Tx:8.37 | with those who are like you, because perceiving this likeness is to | recognize the Father. If your perfection is in Him and only in Him, |
| Tx:8.76 | The more complicated the results become, the harder it may be to | recognize their nothingness, but it is not necessary to examine all |
| Tx:8.94 | your will and God's. If you did not have split minds, you would | recognize that willing is salvation because it is communication. It |
| Tx:8.99 | must remember the Will of God, because ultimately everyone must | recognize himself. This recognition is the recognition that his will |
| Tx:8.100 | Would the Holy Spirit deny the Will of God? And could He fail to | recognize it in His Sons? |
| Tx:8.101 | your energy is limited but because you have limited it. You do not | recognize the enormous waste of energy which you expend in denying |
| Tx:8.117 | is the willingness for giving, and only by this willingness can you | recognize what you have. What you give is therefore the value you put |
| Tx:9.32 | you will not always give rise to joy and so you will not always | recognize His consistency. What you offer to your brother, you offer |
| Tx:9.34 | the Sonship must create as one, you remember creation whenever you | recognize part of creation. Each part you remember adds to your |
| Tx:9.36 | your miracles are the only witnesses to your reality which you can | recognize. You cannot perform a miracle for yourself, because |
| Tx:9.65 | Who could have done this but you? | Recognize this gladly, for in this recognition lies the realization |
| Tx:9.71 | is God, you will realize why this is always fearful. If you further | recognize that you are part of God, you will understand why it is |
| Tx:10.12 | tells you appears to be coercive, it is only because you do not | recognize your own will. |
| Tx:10.21 | The Guest whom God sent you will teach you how to do this if you but | recognize the little spark and are willing to let it grow. Your |
| Tx:10.34 | of this simple fact takes many forms, and these you must learn to | recognize and to oppose steadfastly and without exception. This is a |
| Tx:10.40 | merely by denying their reality. The next step is obviously to | recognize that what has no effects does not exist. Laws do not |
| Tx:10.44 | of its central belief, and the way to undo its results is merely to | recognize that their source is not natural, being out of accord with |
| Tx:10.47 | What you must learn to | recognize is that the last thing the ego wishes you to realize is |
| Tx:10.49 | idea of independence, you will not accept the cost of fear if you | recognize it. Yet this is the cost, and the ego cannot minimize it. |
| Tx:10.51 | is yours and happiness cannot be found apart from your joint will. | Recognize only that the ego's goal, which you have pursued quite |
| Tx:10.52 | Yet God's Son is not insane and cannot believe it. Let him but | recognize it, and he will not accept it. For only the insane would |
| Tx:10.74 | do you believe it? When you have perceived the real world, you will | recognize that you did not believe it. Yet the swiftness with which |
| Tx:10.75 | The Bible tells you to become as little children. Little children | recognize that they do not understand what they perceive, and so they |
| Tx:10.76 | in perception is your great need, for you understand nothing. | Recognize this but do not accept it, for understanding is your |
| Tx:11.6 | Whenever you fail to | recognize a call for help, you are refusing help. Would you maintain |
| Tx:11.6 | not need it? Yet this is what you are maintaining when you refuse to | recognize a brother's appeal, for only by answering his appeal can |
| Tx:11.7 | help yourselves. But hear his call for the help of God, and you will | recognize your own need for the Father. |
| Tx:11.8 | perceive but one need in yourself, you will be healed. For you will | recognize God's answer as you want it to be, and if you want it in |
| Tx:11.9 | awareness that His criteria are equally applicable to you. For to | recognize fear is not enough to escape from it, although the |
| Tx:11.9 | not towards it. Yet we have repeatedly emphasized the need to | recognize fear and face it without disguise as a crucial step in the |
| Tx:11.13 | love, which is the world's reality, how could you do better than to | recognize in every defense against it the underlying appeal for it? |
| Tx:11.16 | make whole, for to perceive in sickness the appeal for health is to | recognize in hatred the call for love. And to give a brother what he |
| Tx:11.27 | Recognize what does not matter, and if your brothers ask you for | |
| Tx:11.34 | your mind since the mind is the mechanism of decision. If you will | recognize that all attack which you perceive is in your own mind and |
| Tx:11.38 | Follow its teaching, then, and you will search for love but will not | recognize it. |
| Tx:11.61 | is demonstrated as you use it in more and more situations. You will | recognize that you have learned there is no order of difficulty in |
| Tx:11.62 | in the world must play his part in the redemption of the world to | recognize that the world has been redeemed. You cannot see the |
| Tx:11.62 | effects, you know it must be there. By perceiving what it does, you | recognize its being. And by what it does, you learn what it is. You |
| Tx:11.66 | same, and if you seek for two goals you will find them, but you will | recognize neither. For you will think they are the same because you |
| Tx:12.5 | In the calm light of truth, let us | recognize that you believe you have crucified God's Son. You have not |
| Tx:12.9 | For the redeemed son of man is the guiltless Son of God, and to | recognize him is your redemption. |
| Tx:12.29 | Would you | recognize a holy encounter if you are merely perceiving it as a |
| Tx:12.36 | The delusional can be very destructive, for they do not | recognize that they have condemned themselves. They do not wish to |
| Tx:12.40 | whom God gave Himself. And it is God to Whom you must offer them to | recognize His gift to you. |
| Tx:13.30 | to love unlike Him, for there is no love apart from His. Until you | recognize that this is true, you will have no idea what love is like. |
| Tx:13.54 | accomplished. You who are steadfastly devoted to misery must first | recognize that you are miserable and not happy. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.60 | to make nothing everything. Yet see that this has been your goal and | recognize how foolish it has been. Be glad it is undone, for when you |
| Tx:14.1 | necessary conditions for knowing Him, you have denied Him and do not | recognize Him, though He is all around you. He cannot be known |
| Tx:14.31 | perception with Him Whom God has given you teaches you how to | recognize what you see. It is the recognition that nothing you see |
| Tx:14.52 | safely make this division, for you are much too confused either to | recognize love or to believe that everything else is nothing but a |
| Tx:14.57 | By supplying your identity wherever it is not recognized, you will | recognize it. And God Himself, Who wills to be with His Son forever, |
| Tx:14.63 | You have one test, as sure as God, by which to | recognize if what you learned is true. If you are wholly free of fear |
| Tx:14.64 | How would you know? Your part is very simple. You need only | recognize that everything you learned you do not want. Ask to be |
| Tx:14.75 | prevail against your peace. And this will be the test by which you | recognize that you have understood. |
| Tx:15.20 | holy instant has not yet happened to you. Yet it will, and you will | recognize it with perfect certainty. No gift of God is recognized in |
| Tx:15.38 | holy altar on which your Father has placed Himself? This you will | recognize in the holy instant in which you willingly and gladly give |
| Tx:15.38 | in littleness. It is not there. Use the holy instant only to | recognize that you alone cannot know where it is and can only deceive |
| Tx:15.40 | reason, for if you do, it will be only because you prefer not to | recognize it and not to let it go. The simple reason, simply stated, |
| Tx:15.42 | communication off because you would have it so. It is impossible to | recognize perfect communication while breaking communication holds |
| Tx:15.57 | you. In the holy instant, we share our faith in God's Son because we | recognize together that he is wholly worthy of it, and in our |
| Tx:15.59 | success as witness to the possibility of yours. That is because you | recognize, however dimly, that God is an idea, and so your faith in |
| Tx:15.60 | one is aware that perfect love is in him. In the holy instant, you | recognize the idea of love in you and unite this idea with the mind |
| Tx:15.62 | obscure your need of this. For in the holy instant, you will | recognize the only need the aspects of the Son of God share equally, |
| Tx:15.68 | to maintain and increase guilt, but in such a way that you do not | recognize what it would do to you. For it is the ego's fundamental |
| Tx:15.79 | but your salvation. And that in complete forgiveness, in which you | recognize that there is nothing to forgive, you are absolved |
| Tx:15.86 | interference and seeing it exactly as it is. For it is impossible to | recognize as wholly without gratification what you think you want. |
| Tx:15.97 | it never seems to be demanding it of you. For you are unwilling to | recognize that the ego, which you invited, is treacherous only to |
| Tx:15.99 | it to take His place to protect you from Him. And you do not | recognize that it is what you invited in that would destroy you and |
| Tx:15.101 | Fear not to | recognize the whole idea of sacrifice as solely of your making. And |
| Tx:15.106 | you find not love. It is impossible to deny what love is and still | recognize it. The meaning of love lies in what you have cast outside |
| Tx:15.111 | myself. In the name of my freedom I will your release, because I | recognize that we will be released together. |
| Tx:16.5 | you desert not him. Humility is strength in this sense only—to | recognize and accept the fact that you do not know is to recognize |
| Tx:16.5 | only—to recognize and accept the fact that you do not know is to | recognize and accept the fact that He does know. You are not sure |
| Tx:16.20 | what has faith in you. Think what you have really seen and heard and | recognize it. Can you be alone with witnesses like these? |
| Tx:16.21 | alien it is to what you thought you knew, you will be compelled to | recognize that your Teacher came from beyond your thought system and |
| Tx:16.23 | from yourself. And yet, this Self you clearly do not know and do not | recognize It even though It functions. What functions must be there. |
| Tx:16.36 | Recognize this, for it is true, and truth must be recognized if it is | |
| Tx:16.50 | other, the ego sees “a union made in Heaven.” For neither one will | recognize that he has asked for hell, and so he will not interfere |
| Tx:16.56 | true. They but seem to be fearful to the extent to which you fail to | recognize them for what they are, and you will fail to do this to the |
| Tx:16.58 | one. You will cross the bridge into reality simply because you will | recognize that God is on the other side and nothing at all is here. |
| Tx:16.60 | of guilt, the real lure in the special relationship. You do not | recognize that this is its real appeal, for the ego has taught you |
| Tx:16.65 | here. For you are no longer wholly insane, and you would | recognize the guilt of self-betrayal for what it is. |
| Tx:17.29 | made very real relationships even in this world which you do not | recognize simply because you have raised their substitutes to such |
| Tx:17.32 | the special relationship protects is but a system of delusions. You | recognize, at least in general terms, that the ego is insane. Yet the |
| Tx:17.40 | a picture is brought home at last. And what you see there, you will | recognize as what it is—a picture of what you thought was real and |
| Tx:17.54 | blind you to yourself. And it is impossible to deny yourself and | recognize what has been given and received by you. |
| Tx:17.56 | share the gladness of the Sonship that it is so. As you begin to | recognize and accept the gifts you have so freely given to each |
| Tx:17.61 | truly, for deception cannot prevail against you. And you will | recognize the outcome because you are at peace. Here again, you see |
| Tx:17.68 | not the illusion of peace it offers, but look upon its offering and | recognize it is illusion. |
| Tx:18.16 | between what you see in sleep and on awaking disturbing. You | recognize that what you see on waking is blotted out in dreams. Yet |
| Tx:18.18 | You seem to waken, and the dream is gone. Yet what you fail to | recognize is that what caused the dream has not gone with it. |
| Tx:18.69 | To do anything involves the body. And if you | recognize you need do nothing, you have withdrawn the body's value |
| Tx:18.71 | yourselves within a body know yourself as an idea? Everything you | recognize you identify with externals, something outside itself. You |
| Tx:18.71 | cannot even think of God without a body or some form you think you | recognize. |
| Tx:18.80 | kingdoms locked away from love and leaving you inside. And you will | recognize yourself and see your little garden gently transformed into |
| Tx:18.82 | relationship and entered fully at your weak request. You do not | recognize that love has come because you have not yet let go of all |
| Tx:18.82 | no more be unaware of love than love could know you not or fail to | recognize itself in you. |
| Tx:19.8 | there separation must be complete. And to perceive this is to | recognize where separation is and where it must be healed. The result |
| Tx:19.13 | other. Your faithlessness had driven you apart, and so you did not | recognize salvation in each other. Yet faith unites you in the |
| Tx:19.27 | all as God entrusted Him to do. But sin He knows not, nor can He | recognize mistakes which cannot be corrected. For a mistake which |
| Tx:19.73 | by the sender and the receiver. The ego and the Holy Spirit both | recognize this, and both also recognize that here the sender and |
| Tx:19.73 | The ego and the Holy Spirit both recognize this, and both also | recognize that here the sender and receiver are the same. The Holy |
| Tx:19.109 | but he must choose what it will be that he receives. And he will | recognize his choice by what he gives and what is given him. Nor is |
| Tx:19.110 | Yet it is given you to see this purpose in your holy Friend and | recognize it is your own. |
| Tx:20.4 | and given as your gift, you will behold each other's face and | recognize it. I was a stranger and you took me in, not knowing who I |
| Tx:20.15 | together, singing as you behold the open door of Heaven, and | recognize the home that called to you. Give joyously to one another |

| Tx:20.24 | him thanks for all the happiness which he held out to you? Did you | recognize each other as the eternal gift of God to you? Did you see |
| Tx:20.39 | too little. What is inestimable clearly cannot be evaluated. Do you | recognize the fear that rises from the meaningless attempt to judge |
| Tx:20.40 | offering? His worth has been established by his Father, and you will | recognize it as you receive his Father's gift through him. What is in |
| Tx:20.43 | through His vision will you see it, and through His understanding | recognize it and love it as your own. |
| Tx:20.59 | are refusing to leave the means to Him Who changed the purpose. You | recognize you want the goal. Are you not also willing to accept the |
| Tx:20.74 | Believe them not, and they are gone. And all you need to do is | recognize you did this. Once you accept this simple fact and take |
| Tx:21.2 | will see the witness to the choice you made and learn from this to | recognize which one you chose. [The world you see but shows you how |
| Tx:21.3 | inferences as they stumble and fall because of what they did not | recognize, or walk unharmed through open doorways which they thought |
| Tx:21.3 | wrong, and so you stumble and fall down upon the stones you did not | recognize, but fail to be aware you can go through the doors you |
| Tx:21.4 | to imagine what the world must look like. It must be seen before you | recognize it for what it is. You can be shown which doors are open, |
| Tx:21.22 | to stop your interference with what will happen of itself; simply to | recognize again the presence of what you thought you gave away. |
| Tx:21.26 | It is as needful that you | recognize you made the world you see as that you recognize that you |
| Tx:21.26 | as needful that you recognize you made the world you see as that you | recognize that you did not create yourself. They are the same |
| Tx:21.36 | body, supporting vision, not obstructing it. But first they chose to | recognize how much their faith had limited their understanding of the |
| Tx:21.44 | mad, you have been willing to look on much of your insanity and | recognize its madness. Your faith is moving inward, past insanity and |
| Tx:21.45 | of freedom, the acceptance of release to come to you. And now you | recognize that it was not the ego that joined the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:21.63 | other parts? Reason would tell you this. But think what you must | recognize if it be so. |
| Tx:21.73 | does this enemy appear, who changes so it is impossible even to | recognize him! |
| Tx:21.90 | What is the holy instant but God's appeal to you to | recognize what He has given you? Here is the great appeal to reason; |
| Tx:22.4 | them all becomes apparent. Here is the golden circle where you | recognize the Son of God. For what is born into a holy relationship |
| Tx:22.10 | he sees about him will become to him his comforters, and he will | recognize his home and see them there with him. |
| Tx:22.14 | denial of illusions that calls on truth, for to deny illusions is to | recognize that fear is meaningless. Into the holy home, where fear is |
| Tx:22.19 | Reason will tell you that the only way to escape from misery is to | recognize it and go the other way. Truth is the same and misery the |
| Tx:22.26 | be. It is impossible to look upon your savior as your enemy and | recognize him. Yet it is possible to recognize him for what he is if |
| Tx:22.26 | your savior as your enemy and recognize him. Yet it is possible to | recognize him for what he is if God would have it so. What God has |
| Tx:22.32 | Only the form of error attracts the ego. Meaning it does not | recognize and does not know if it is there or not. Everything which |
| Tx:22.35 | perception and must perceive illusions as the truth. Could it then | recognize the truth? |
| Tx:22.56 | of peace, the light has come to you. The light you bring you do not | recognize, and yet you will remember. Who can deny himself the vision |
| Tx:22.56 | himself the vision that he brings to others? And who would fail to | recognize a gift he let be laid in Heaven through himself? The gentle |
| Tx:22.57 | from seeing past it? And what illusion could there be you will not | recognize as a mistake—a shadow through which you walk completely |
| Tx:22.57 | let nothing interfere with those whose wills are His[. And they will | recognize their wills are His, because they serve His Will] and serve |
| Tx:23.6 | salvation and your freedom. And it must be complete if you would | recognize it. |
| Tx:23.27 | By this, another's loss becomes your gain, and thus it fails to | recognize that you can never take away save from yourself. Yet all |
| Tx:23.36 | be tenable? Yet you believe them for the form they take and do not | recognize the content. It never changes. Can you paint rosy lips upon |
| Tx:23.40 | one step in the descent to hell. For having taken one, you will not | recognize the rest for what they are. And they will follow. Attack in |
| Tx:23.41 | Is it not true you do not | recognize some of the forms attack can take? If it is true attack in |
| Tx:23.41 | hurt you and will do so just as much as in another form which you do | recognize, then it must follow that you do not always recognize the |
| Tx:23.41 | which you do recognize, then it must follow that you do not always | recognize the source of pain. Attack in any form is equally |
| Tx:23.44 | and love for that and understand forgiveness. Would you not want to | recognize assault upon your peace in any form, if only thus does it |
| Tx:23.50 | of murder and attack that still attracts you and that you do not | recognize for what it is limits the healing and the miracles you have |
| Tx:23.52 | remember you can see the battle from above. Even in forms you do not | recognize, the signs you know. There is a stab of pain, a twinge of |
| Tx:24.13 | at the cost of peace. Who can attack his savior and cut him down yet | recognize his strong support? Who can detract from his omnipotence |
| Tx:24.66 | immortality, setting another light in Heaven, where your creations | recognize a gift from you, a sign that you have not forgotten them. |
| Tx:25.2 | No one who carries Christ in him can fail to | recognize Him everywhere. Except in bodies. And as long as they |
| Tx:25.2 | Him unknowingly and do not make Him manifest. And thus they do not | recognize Him where He is. The son of man is not the risen Christ. |
| Tx:25.23 | a world in which attack is justified. To the extent to which you | recognize that guilt is meaningless, to that extent will you perceive |
| Tx:25.31 | all time becomes a means to reach a goal. Make then your choice. But | recognize that in this choice the purpose of the world you see is |
| Tx:25.32 | Minds that are joined and | recognize they are can feel no guilt. For they cannot attack, and |
| Tx:25.63 | you prefer He take it than that you keep it for yourself alone and | recognize that what brings loss to no one you would not know. This |
| Tx:25.71 | Him far. No further than what you see He offers you and what you | recognize you could not give yourself. |
| Tx:25.72 | In God's own justice does He | recognize all you deserve but understands as well that you cannot |
| Tx:25.73 | unfair indeed to all the holiness that is in him, however much he | recognize it not. God knows of no injustice. He would not allow His |
| Tx:25.78 | mean that truth has greater value now than all illusions. And you | recognize that truth must be revealed to you because you know not |
| Tx:26.61 | Son made incomplete and not himself. [Nor will he know himself nor | recognize his will.] He has forsworn his Father and himself and made |
| Tx:26.63 | The miracle but calls your ancient name, which you will | recognize because the truth is in your memory. And to this name, your |
| Tx:27.26 | half the Holy Spirit must represent the other half until you | recognize it is the other half. And this He does by giving both of |
| Tx:27.27 | assured that He will not fulfill a function He cannot understand and | recognize as His. For only thus can He keep yours preserved intact, |
| Tx:27.65 | which those within the world are joined in sharing. Yet they do not | recognize their common need. For each one thinks that if he does his |
| Tx:27.86 | as they may, they could have no effect on you unless you failed to | recognize it is your dream. This single lesson learned will set you |
| Tx:28.44 | he insisted was himself. And when he sees this picture, he will | recognize himself. If you share not your brother's evil dream, this |
| Tx:29.8 | fear its weakness, but its lack of strength or weakness. Would you | recognize that nothing stands between you? Would you know there is no |
| Tx:29.26 | indeed if it allowed you still to be afraid because you did not | recognize the fear. You would not then be willing to awake, for which |
| Tx:29.64 | forget that they made up the dream in which their toys are real, nor | recognize their wishes are their own. |
| Tx:30.2 | you are making them. But with a little practice with the ones you | recognize, a set begins to form which sees you through the rest. It |
| Tx:30.11 | 3. Remember once again the day you want and | recognize that something has occurred which is not part of it. Then |
| Tx:31.10 | to you beyond each form of hate, each call to war. Yet you will | recognize Him as you give Him answer in the language that He calls. |
| Tx:31.44 | For it is made to serve two purposes, but one of which the mind can | recognize. The first presents the face of innocence, the aspect acted |
| Tx:31.62 | You see the flesh or | recognize the Spirit. There is no compromise between the two. If one |
| Tx:31.68 | thinking to be helpful nor to make the kinds of change you could not | recognize. Concepts are needed while perception lasts, and changing |
| Tx:31.69 | You could not | recognize your “evil” thoughts as long as you see value in attack. |
| W1:4.3 | meaningful within. It is also the beginning of training your mind to | recognize what is the same and what is different. In using your |
| W1:4.5 | You can also use the idea for a particular thought which you | recognize as harmful. This practice is useful, but is not a |
| W1:8.3 | purpose of the exercises for today is to begin to train your mind to | recognize when it is not really thinking at all. While thoughtless |
| W1:8.4 | is because you actually cannot see anything, and it is easier to | recognize that, no matter how vividly you may picture a thought, you |
| W1:10.3 | repeating our earlier statement that your mind is really a blank. To | recognize this is to recognize nothingness when you think you see it. |
| W1:10.3 | statement that your mind is really a blank. To recognize this is to | recognize nothingness when you think you see it. As such, it is the |
| W1:13.3 | It is essential, therefore, that you learn to | recognize the meaningless and accept it without fear. If you are |
| W1:15.1 | the thoughts you think you think appear as images that you do not | recognize them as nothing. You think you think them, and so you think |
| W1:16.3 | In addition to never being idle, salvation requires that you | recognize that every thought you have brings either peace or war, |
| W1:16.3 | trivial, and not worth bothering about that it is essential you | recognize them all as equally destructive but equally unreal. We will |
| W1:21.3 | escape you in the practice periods. Remember that you do not really | recognize what arouses anger in you, and nothing that you believe in |
| W1:23.9 | exactly the same because they are exactly the same. You do not yet | recognize this, and you are asked at this time only to treat them as |
| W1:24.1 | any situation which is correctly perceived. Otherwise, you will not | recognize what they are. |
| W1:24.8 | If these exercises are done properly, you will quickly | recognize that you are making a large number of demands of the |
| W1:24.8 | of the situation which have nothing to do with it. You will also | recognize that many of your goals are contradictory, that you have no |
| W1:25.4 | more thought is necessary. At the most superficial levels, you do | recognize purpose. Yet purpose cannot be understood at these levels. |
| W1:30.2 | trying to see in the world what is in our minds, and what we want to | recognize is there. Thus we are trying to join with what we see, |
| W1:33.1 | Today's idea is an attempt to | recognize that you can shift your perception of the world in both its |
| W1:35.5 | self-inflating descriptive terms may well cross your mind. Try to | recognize that the direction of your fantasies about yourself does |
| W1:44.2 | In order to see, you must | recognize that light is within, not without. You do not see outside |
| W1:45.5 | Instead, we will try to | recognize that only what God would have us do is possible. We will |
| W1:47.8 | try to reach down into your mind to a place of real safety. You will | recognize that you have reached it if you feel a sense of deep peace, |
| W1:48.1 | are not facts. In truth there is nothing to fear. It is very easy to | recognize this. But it is very difficult to recognize for those who |
| W1:48.1 | fear. It is very easy to recognize this. But it is very difficult to | recognize for those who want illusions to be true. |
| W1:48.3 | that somewhere in your mind, not necessarily in a place which you | recognize as yet, you have remembered God and let His strength take |
| W1:50.4 | Repeat it, think about it, let related thoughts come to help you | recognize its truth, and allow peace to flow over you like a blanket |
| W1:51.2 | I see nothing, and nothing has no meaning. It is necessary that I | recognize this, that I may learn to see. What I think I see now is |
| W1:51.3 | judgments have been made quite apart from reality. I am willing to | recognize the lack of validity in my judgments because I want to see. |
| W1:51.5 | because I have made my thoughts to take their place. I am willing to | recognize that my thoughts do not mean anything and to let them go. I |
| W1:53.5 | of creation is my home? Let me remember the power of my decision and | recognize where I really abide. |
| W1:55.5 | [24] I do not perceive my own best interests. How could I | recognize my own best interests when I do not know who I am? What I |
| W1:55.6 | It is this that I believe the world is for. Therefore I do not | recognize its real purpose. The purpose I have given the world has |
| W1:56.5 | And we who are part of Him will yet look past all appearances and | recognize the truth beyond them all. |
| W1:57.3 | I see. I made up the prison in which I see myself. All I need do is | recognize this, and I am free. I have deluded myself into believing |
| W1:58.3 | joy because there is nothing that does not share my holiness. As I | recognize my holiness, so does the holiness of the world shine forth |
| W1:60.2 | see nothing to forgive. Yet forgiveness is the means by which I will | recognize my innocence. It is the reflection of God's Love on earth. |
| W1:60.3 | God in me, which I am remembering as I forgive. As I begin to see, I | recognize His reflection on earth. I forgive all things because I |
| W1:60.4 | and everything I see will lean toward me to bless me. I will | recognize in everyone my dearest Friend. What could there be to fear |
| W1:62.1 | world of darkness to the light. It is your forgiveness that lets you | recognize the light in which you see. Forgiveness is the |
| W1:62.8 | Let related thoughts come freely, for your heart will | recognize these words, and in your mind is the awareness that they |
| W1:63.1 | to bring peace to every mind! How blessed are you who can learn to | recognize the means for letting this be done through you! What |
| W1:66.4 | are an attempt to go beyond these differences in appearance, and | recognize a common content where it exists in truth. |
| W1:67.6 | of thoughtlessness to the awareness of a blazing light in which you | recognize yourself as Love created you. Be confident that you will do |
| W1:69.8 | be certain that He has heard you and has answered you. You may not | recognize His answer yet, but you can indeed be sure that it is given |
| W1:70.10 | and events, and in self-concepts which you sought to make real. | Recognize that it was not there. Tell yourself: |
| W1:72.10 | our concern. To be without a body is to be in our natural state. To | recognize the light of truth in us is to recognize ourselves as we |
| W1:72.10 | be in our natural state. To recognize the light of truth in us is to | recognize ourselves as we are. To see our Self as separate from the |
| W1:72.11 | what God's plan for us is. We are therefore attacking what we do not | recognize. Now we are going to try to lay judgment aside and ask what |
| W1:74.2 | illusions. Without illusions, conflict is impossible. Let us try to | recognize this today and experience the peace this recognition brings. |
| W1:74.11 | and enervation. Joy characterizes peace. By this experience will you | recognize that you have reached it. |
| W1:77.9 | whenever a situation arises in which they are called for. You will | recognize these situations; you are not relying on yourself to find |
| W1:79.1 | solved already, you will still have the problem because you cannot | recognize that it has been solved. This is the situation of the |
| W1:79.6 | All this complexity is but a desperate attempt not to | recognize the problem and therefore not to let it be resolved. If you |
| W1:79.6 | the problem and therefore not to let it be resolved. If you could | recognize that your only problem is separation, no matter what form |
| W1:79.6 | the means to solve them all. And you would use the means because you | recognize the problem. |
| W1:79.7 | to realize that we have only one problem, which we have failed to | recognize. We will ask what it is and wait for the answer. We will be |
| W1:79.8 | reality of our version of what our problems are. We are trying to | recognize that we have been given the answer by recognizing the |
| W1:79.11 | Let me | recognize this problem so it can be solved. |
| W1:80.1 | If you are willing to | recognize your problems, you will recognize that you have no |
| W1:80.1 | If you are willing to recognize your problems, you will | recognize that you have no problems. Your one central problem has |
| W1:80.2 | for yourself by bringing the problem to the answer. And you can | recognize the answer because the problem has been identified. |
| W1:80.5 | brings be given you. Close your eyes and receive your reward. | Recognize that your problems have been solved. Recognize that you are |
| W1:80.5 | receive your reward. Recognize that your problems have been solved. | Recognize that you are out of conflict, free, and at peace. Above |
| W1:80.7 | Let me | recognize this problem has been solved. |
| W1:80.8 | Do not deceive yourself about what the problem is, and you must | recognize it has been solved. |
| W1:83.5 | because both come from the same Source. And I must learn to | recognize what makes me happy if I would find happiness. |
| W1:84.2 | I cannot experience loss, and I cannot die. I am not a body. I would | recognize my reality today. I will worship no idols nor raise my own |
| W1:85.5 | [70] My salvation comes from me. Today I will | recognize where my salvation is. It is in me because its Source is |
| W1:87.5 | can I believe that my eternal safety is threatened. Today I will | recognize that all this has not occurred. I am safe because there is |
| W1:88.2 | come. In choosing salvation rather than attack, I merely choose to | recognize what is already here. Salvation is a decision made already. |
| W1:90.2 | [79] Let me | recognize the problem so it can be solved. Let me realize today that |
| W1:90.5 | [80] Let me | recognize my problems have been solved. I seem to have problems only |
| W1:92.11 | and trust. Let us repeat as often as we can the idea for today and | recognize that we are being introduced to sight and led away from |
| W1:98.3 | The guiltless have no fear, for they are safe and | recognize their safety. They do not appeal to magic nor invent |
| W1:98.5 | that God has given you? Is it not worth five minutes hourly to | recognize your special function here? Is not five minutes of the hour |
| W1:99.4 | which are forever one? What plan could hold the truth inviolate, yet | recognize the need illusions bring and offer means by which they are |
| W1:100.5 | world how great the happiness He wills for you. And so you do not | recognize that it is yours. |
| W1:104.3 | place of what we made we but unite our will with what God wills and | recognize the same as being one. |
| W1:104.6 | we lay aside and seek instead that which is truly ours, as we ask to | recognize what God has given us. |
| W1:105.9 | Thus you prepare yourself to | recognize God's gifts to you and let your mind be free of all that |
| W1:107.8 | we do not have. We merely ask for what belongs to us, that we may | recognize it as our own. |
| W1:109.2 | while. Here is the thought in which the Son of God is born again, to | recognize himself. |
| W1:119.3 | today, that I may learn how to accept the truth in me and come to | recognize my sinlessness. |
| W1:122.3 | those who look with unforgiving eyes upon the world. It lets you | recognize the Son of God and clears your memory of all dead thoughts |
| W1:124.2 | walk the world a little while. And those who come to follow us will | recognize the way because the light we carry stays behind, yet still |
| W1:124.9 | Yet sometime, somewhere, it will come to you, nor will you fail to | recognize it when it dawns with certainty upon your mind. This half |
| W1:126.7 | Not having given Him the gift He asks of you, you cannot | recognize His gifts and think He has not given them to you. Yet would |
| W1:126.10 | speak to you, and you will understand the words He speaks and | recognize He speaks your words to you. |
| W1:130.8 | for the other world by asking for a strength beyond your own, and | recognize what it is you seek. You do not want illusions. And you |
| W1:132.8 | bring the lesson to them in some form which they can understand and | recognize. Some see it suddenly on point of death and rise to teach |
| W1:133.8 | to everything, you have denied your own. You therefore will not | recognize the things you really have, denying they are there. Who |
| W1:133.9 | is easiest of all to be deceived, for what the ego wants it fails to | recognize. It does not even tell the truth as it perceives it, for it |
| W1:135.13 | outcome which is best, the means by which it is achieved, nor how to | recognize the problem that the plan is made to solve. It must misuse |
| W1:136.3 | them. In that second, even less, in which the choice is made, you | recognize exactly what you would attempt to do and then proceed to |
| W1:136.19 | the source of sickness has been opened to relief. And you will | recognize you practiced well by this—the body should not feel at |
| W1:137.10 | have no contact with you healed along with you. Perhaps you will not | recognize them all, nor realize how great your offering to all the |
| W1:138.11 | making sure that we have made the one decision that is sane. We | recognize we make a conscious choice between what has existence and |
| W1:139.2 | Yet who could ask this question except one who has refused to | recognize himself? Only refusal to accept yourself could make the |
| W1:151.6 | Yet you must learn to doubt their evidence will clear the way to | recognize yourself and let the Voice for God alone be Judge of what |
| W1:152.10 | is our own. And we accept of Him that which we are and humbly | recognize the Son of God. |
| W1:152.11 | To | recognize God's Son implies as well that all self-concepts have been |
| W1:153.9 | We look past dreams today and | recognize that we need no defense because we are created |
| W1:153.11 | to all your brothers. As they take it from your hands, so will you | recognize it as your own. |
| W1:154.8 | have received, and so you do not know that they are yours and do not | recognize them. No one can receive and understand he has received |
| W1:154.10 | It is this joining that we undertake to | recognize today. We will not seek to keep our minds apart from Him |
| W1:154.11 | We practice giving Him what He would have that we may | recognize His gifts to us. He needs our voice that He may speak |
| W1:154.12 | Let us but learn this lesson for today: we will not | recognize what we receive until we give it. You have heard this said |
| W1:154.14 | of God, and I am grateful that I have the means by which to | recognize that I am free. |
| W1:155.1 | your eyes are quiet. And the ones who walk the world as you do | recognize their own. Yet those who have not yet perceived the way |
| W1:155.1 | their own. Yet those who have not yet perceived the way will | recognize you also and believe that you are like them as you were |
| W1:156.5 | longs to behold. All living things are still before you, for they | recognize Who walks with you. The light you carry is their own, and |
| W1:159.1 | it must be kept. Salvation teaches otherwise. To give is how to | recognize you have received. It is the proof that what you have is |
| W1:159.2 | accept forgiveness as accomplished in yourself when you forgive. You | recognize your brother as yourself and thus do you perceive that you |
| W1:160.2 | what truth regards as senseless. Stranger yet, he does not | recognize to whom he comes and yet maintains his home belongs to him, |
| W1:160.7 | Is he not the one your Self calls not? You are unable now to | recognize this stranger in your midst, for you have given him your |
| W1:160.9 | unites with them. They see Him as a stranger, for they do not | recognize themselves. Yet as they give Him welcome, they remember. |
| W1:161.15 | own. Behold him now whom you had seen as merely flesh and bone and | recognize that Christ has come to you. |
| W1:164.2 | —an ancient call to which He gives an ancient answer. You will | recognize them both. For they are but your answer to your Father's |
| W1:166.12 | as well of what becomes your will when you accept these gifts and | recognize they are your own. |
| W1:166.13 | the happiness that comes to those who feel the touch of Christ and | recognize God's gifts. Let sorrow not tempt you to be unfaithful to |
| W1:R5.1 | are ready to give more effort and more time to what we undertake. We | recognize we are preparing for another phase of understanding. We |
| W1:R5.8 | your doubts and fears a little while, that you may come to me who | recognize the road by which all fears and doubts are overcome. We |
| W1:R5.15 | from practice, not the means we use. We wait for the experience and | recognize that it is only here conviction lies. We use the words, and |
| W1:181.5 | practicing with one intent—to look upon the sinlessness within. We | recognize that we have lost this goal if anger blocks our way in any |
| W1:182.1 | if there were a place that called you to return, although you do not | recognize the Voice nor what it is the Voice reminds you of. Yet |
| W1:182.2 | sadness from them. Others will deny that they are sad and do not | recognize their tears at all. Still others will maintain that what we |
| W1:184.9 | you can communicate in ways the world can understand, but which you | recognize is not the unity where true communication can be found. |
| W1:187.6 | giving means must laugh at the idea of sacrifice. Nor can he fail to | recognize the many forms which sacrifice may take. He laughs as well |
| W1:188.6 | messengers of God Himself. These thoughts you think with Him. They | recognize their home. And they point surely to their Source where God |
| W1:195.6 | thing, for otherwise we offer thanks for nothing and we fail to | recognize the gifts of God to us. |
| W1:195.9 | malice, and revenge. We have been given everything. If we refuse to | recognize it, we are not entitled therefore to our bitterness and to |
| W1:198.15 | vision and our sight. And we are glad that we have come this far and | recognize that He Who brought us here will not forsake us now. For He |
| W2:WS.2 | part of every fragment of the mind that still was one but failed to | recognize its oneness. Now it did not know itself and thought its own |
| W2:234.2 | Father, that we cannot lose the memory of You and of Your Love. We | recognize our safety and give thanks for all the gifts You have |
| W2:240.2 | fears! Would You allow Your Son to suffer? Give us faith today to | recognize Your Son and set him free. Let us forgive him in Your Name, |
| W2:243.1 | from bits of my perception, which are all that I can see. Today I | recognize that this is so. And so I am relieved of judgment which I |

| W2:246.2 | For in that will I succeed because it is Your Will. And I would | recognize that what You will is what I will as well and only that. |

| W2:287.2 | Son would be as You created him. What way but this could I expect to | recognize my Self and be at one with my Identity? |
| W2:288.1 | come to You without my brother. And to know my Source, I first must | recognize what You created one with me. My brother's is the hand that |
| W2:291.1 | today! What holiness we see surrounding us! And it is given us to | recognize it is a holiness in which we share; it is the holiness of |
| W2:316.2 | Father, I would accept Your gifts today. I do not | recognize them. Yet I trust that You Who gave them will provide the |
| W2:317.1 | gladly go the way my Father's plan appointed me to go, then will I | recognize salvation is already here, already given all my brothers |
| W2:328.1 | our own. And since our will is His, it is to Him that we must go to | recognize our will. |
| W2:329.2 | of us are one because His Will is shared by all of us. Through it we | recognize that we are one. Through it we find our way at last to God. |
| W2:353.1 | with Him to serve His purpose. Then I lose myself in my Identity and | recognize that Christ is but my Self. |

| M:3.5 | is actually perfect. This does not mean that they necessarily | recognize this; in fact, they generally do not. They may even be |
| M:5.3 | ultimate defiance in a direct form which the Son of God is forced to | recognize. It stands for all that he would hide from himself to |
| M:5.4 | me at all in this,” and he is healed. But to say this one must first | recognize certain facts. First, it is obvious that decisions are of |
| M:5.10 | he has not made himself and must remain as God created him. They | recognize illusions can have no effect. The truth in their minds |
| M:7.2 | himself that he has given the problem to One Who cannot fail, and | recognize that his own uncertainty is not love but fear and therefore |
| M:7.3 | but hardly one to stay with. And so the teacher of God can only | recognize it for what it is and let it be corrected for him. |
| M:7.4 | One of the most difficult temptations to | recognize is that to doubt a healing because of the appearance of |
| M:7.6 | with the self to the exclusion of the patient. It is a failure to | recognize him as part of the self and thus represents a confusion in |
| M:10.3 | wide range of things, past, present, and to come. One would have to | recognize in advance all the effects of his judgments on everyone and |
| M:12.6 | suffer and die. Yet they are not deceived by what they see. They | recognize that to behold a dream figure as sick and separate is no |
| M:15.3 | It is your function to prepare yourself to hear this judgment and to | recognize that it is true. One instant of complete belief in this, |
| M:16.6 | will not work, but you are not in danger. You have no need of them. | Recognize this, and they will disappear. And only then will you |
| M:16.11 | hour, and even every minute and second, must God's teachers learn to | recognize the forms of magic and perceive their meaninglessness. Fear |
| M:17.9 | its servant, it neither attacks nor protects. To see it and to | recognize its thought system is to look on nothing. Can nothing give |
| M:20.4 | Now must you once again lay down your sword, although you may not | recognize that you have picked it up again. But you will learn, as |
| M:22.5 | it to his brother in Christ's Name. He will, in fact, be unable to | recognize his brother at all, for his Father did not create bodies, |
| M:22.6 | sense of separation that has made him sick. It is your function to | recognize for him that what he believes about himself is not the |

| Tx:29.18 | to be a god will be attacked because its nothingness has not been | recognized. And so it seems to be a thing with power in itself. As |

| Tx:30.37 | This world awaits the freedom you will give when you have | recognized that you are free. But you will not forgive the world |
| Tx:30.57 | wish to understand all things created as they really are. And it is | recognized that all things must be first forgiven, and then |
| Tx:30.58 | is understanding lost. The folly of pursuing guilt as goal is fully | recognized. And idols are not wanted there, for guilt is understood |

| Tx:30.74 | Forgiveness | recognized as merited will heal. It gives the miracle its strength to |
| Tx:31.59 | When every concept has been raised to doubt and question and been | recognized as made on no assumptions which would stand the light, |

| W1:95.8 | failed to do what is required. This should, however, merely be | recognized as what it is—a refusal to let your mistakes be |
| W1:135.7 | pile of dust and water. Who would make defense of something that he | recognized as this? |
| W1:135.15 | for the denial of reality is very obvious. Yet planning is not often | recognized as a defense. |

| W1:164.6 | of the world. The valuable and valueless are both perceived and | recognized for what they are. And what is worthy of your love |
| W1:165.3 | and his peace of mind, his quiet rest, his calm awakening if he but | recognized where they abide? Would he not instantly prepare to go |
| W1:168.2 | of His Love. Would He not gladly give the means by which His Will is | recognized? His grace is yours by your acknowledgment. And memory of |

| W2:345.1 | the law of love is universal. Even here it takes a form which can be | recognized and seen to work. The miracles I give are given back in |

| Tx:13.44 | him. His sleep will not withstand the call to wake. The mission of | redemption will be fulfilled as surely as the creation will remain |
| Tx:14.15 | Atonement or leave outside, judging him fit for crucifixion or for | redemption. If you bring him into the circle of purity, you will rest |
| Tx:15.81 | and seek not to restore it to yourselves. Fear not to give | redemption over to your Redeemer's love. He will not fail you, for He |
| Tx:17.78 | cause of his awakening as yours. You have assumed your part in his | redemption, and you are now fully responsible to him. Fail him not |
| Tx:19.103 | not offer him forgiveness, when only he can offer it to you? For his | redemption, he will give you yours as surely as God created every |
| Tx:19.104 | it to him. [For he will receive of you what you received of him.] | Redemption has been given you to give each other, and thus receive |
| Tx:19.105 | resurrection to which we come again; to which we will return until | redemption is accomplished and received. Think who your brother is |

| Tx:20.4 | alien to you and yet your ancient Friend, lie his release and your | redemption with him. The time of Easter is a time of joy and not of |
| Tx:23.6 | clean and redeemed and happy through a world in bitter need of the | redemption that your innocence bestows upon it! What can you value |
| Tx:24.34 | attraction. Here is death enthroned as savior; crucifixion is now | redemption, and salvation can only mean destruction of the world, |
| Tx:26.64 | In crucifixion is | redemption laid, for healing is not needed where there is no pain or |
| Tx:27.11 | the place of death. The body can become a sign of life, a promise of | redemption, and a breath of immortality to those grown sick of |
| W1:63.2 | the world with such a function. The Son of God looks to you for his | redemption. It is yours to give him, for it belongs to you. Accept no |
| W1:110.3 | as God created you. You need no thought but just this one to let | redemption come to light the world and free it from the past. |
| W1:159.7 | light. What was to be the home of sin becomes the center of | redemption and the hearth of mercy where the suffering are healed and |
| W1:196.12 | release. It is indeed but you your mind can try to crucify. Yet your | redemption, too, will come from you. |
| W2:295.1 | from me, the dreams that seemed to settle on the world are gone. | Redemption must be one. As I am saved, the world is saved with me. |
| W2:344.2 | near is He to us. How close the ending of the dream of sin and the | redemption of the Son of God. |

| Tx:13.21 | way with anyone for his own salvation will find it in that strange | relationship. It is not shared, and so it is not real. |
| Tx:13.22 | because your union with him is not real. You will see guilt in that | relationship because you put it there. It is inevitable that those |
| Tx:13.24 | Determine, then, to be not as you were. Use no | relationship to hold you to the past, but with each one each day be |
| Tx:15.48 | learning experience which points to truth. Under His teaching, every | relationship becomes a lesson in love. |
| Tx:15.49 | by removing as much fear as you will let Him. You can place any | relationship under His care and be sure that it will not result in |
| Tx:15.49 | be afraid to let go your imagined needs, which would destroy the | relationship. Your only need is His. |
| Tx:15.50 | Any | relationship which you would substitute for another has not been |
| Tx:15.52 | between yourself and them. In the holy instant, you see in each | relationship what it will be when you perceive only the present. |
| Tx:15.56 | It is impossible to use one | relationship at the expense of another and not suffer guilt. And it |
| Tx:15.56 | not suffer guilt. And it is equally impossible to condemn part of a | relationship and find peace within it. Under the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:15.65 | Beyond the poor attraction of the special love | relationship and always obscured by it is the powerful attraction of |
| Tx:15.65 | everyone joined in it has everything. This is not the basis for any | relationship in which the ego enters. For every relationship on which |
| Tx:15.65 | the basis for any relationship in which the ego enters. For every | relationship on which the ego embarks is special. The ego establishes |
| Tx:15.66 | It is impossible for the ego to enter into any | relationship without anger, for the ego believes that anger makes |
| Tx:15.70 | In one way or another, every | relationship which the ego makes is based on the idea that by |
| Tx:15.74 | you are angry, you can be sure that you have formed a special | relationship which the ego has “blessed,” for anger is its blessing. |
| Tx:15.77 | He will do so, for the power of God in Him and you is joined in real | relationship, so holy and so strong that it can overcome even this |
| Tx:15.81 | and nothing that he wills can be denied. You are forever in a | relationship so holy that it calls to everyone to escape from |
| Tx:15.82 | For Christ knows of no separation from His Father, Who is His one | relationship, in which He gives as His Father gives to Him. |
| Tx:15.84 | you the only meaning of relationships. For God created the only | relationship which has meaning, and that is His relationship with you. |
| Tx:15.84 | God created the only relationship which has meaning, and that is His | relationship with you. |
| Tx:15.91 | would place no limits on your union with Him.] The reality of this | relationship becomes the only truth that you could ever want. All |
| Tx:15.94 | are one cannot give separately. When you are willing to accept our | relationship as real, guilt will hold no attraction for you. For in |
| Tx:15.103 | with me. All pain and sacrifice and littleness will disappear in our | relationship, which is as innocent as our relationship with our |
| Tx:15.103 | will disappear in our relationship, which is as innocent as our | relationship with our Father, and as powerful. Pain will be brought |
| Tx:15.104 | of sacrifice, as peace is the condition for the awareness of your | relationship with God. Through guilt you exclude your Father and your |
| Tx:15.109 | of the Father enters with Him, and with Him they remember the only | relationship they ever had and ever want to have. |
| Tx:16.1 | ego's interpretation of empathy and is always used to form a special | relationship in which the suffering is shared. The capacity to |
| Tx:16.3 | to remember this—you do not want anything you value to come of the | relationship. You will neither to hurt it nor to heal it in your own |
| Tx:16.7 | The meaning of love is lost in any | relationship which looks to weakness and hopes to find love there. |
| Tx:16.16 | will convince you of the truth of what you do not want. Yet your | relationship with Him is real and has been demonstrated. Regard this |
| Tx:16.22 | because all your learning has been directed towards establishing the | relationship between them. And would you not have faith in what you |
| Tx:16.24 | to avoid the obvious and not to see the real cause and effect | relationship that is perfectly apparent. Yet within you is everything |
| Tx:16.30 | Be not afraid to look upon the special hate | relationship, for freedom lies in looking at it. It would be |
| Tx:16.30 | to know the meaning of love except for this. For the special love | relationship, in which the meaning of love is lost, is undertaken |
| Tx:16.30 | eyes as you look on this. You cannot limit hate. The special love | relationship will not offset it but will merely drive it underground |
| Tx:16.32 | The special love | relationship is an attempt to limit the destructive effects of hate |
| Tx:16.32 | build barricades against it and keep within them. The special love | relationship is not perceived as a value in itself, but as a place of |
| Tx:16.32 | Hatred can enter and indeed is welcome in some aspects of the | relationship, but it is still held together by the illusion of love. |
| Tx:16.32 | held together by the illusion of love. If the illusion goes, the | relationship is broken or becomes unsatisfying on the grounds of |
| Tx:16.33 | And when they find the fear of death is still upon them, the love | relationship loses the illusion that it is what it is not. For then |
| Tx:16.36 | if it is to be distinguished from illusion: The special love | relationship is an attempt [to bring love into separation. And, as |
| Tx:16.36 | fear. In fundamental violation of love's condition, the special love | relationship would accomplish the impossible. How but in illusion |
| Tx:16.37 | completion, and it is they who render you complete. The special love | relationship is but a shabby substitute for what makes you whole in |
| Tx:16.37 | substitute for what makes you whole in truth, not in illusion. Your | relationship with them is without guilt, and this enables you to look |
| Tx:16.38 | the Name of God, be wholly willing to abandon all illusions. In any | relationship in which you are wholly willing to accept completion, |
| Tx:16.43 | In looking at the special | relationship, it is necessary first to realize that it involves a |
| Tx:16.44 | the Sonship open to attack and unprotected from it. The special love | relationship is the ego's chief weapon for keeping you from Heaven. |
| Tx:16.44 | value it and why, you will realize what it must be. The special love | relationship is the ego's most boasted gift, and one which has the |
| Tx:16.46 | It is in the special | relationship, born of the hidden wish for special love from God, that |
| Tx:16.46 | love from God, that the ego's hatred triumphs. For the special | relationship is the renunciation of the love of God and the attempt |
| Tx:16.48 | The special | relationship is a strange and unnatural ego device for joining hell |
| Tx:16.48 | and to the inability to perceive either one as it is. The special | relationship is the triumph of this confusion. It is a kind of union |
| Tx:16.49 | all is the concept of the self which the ego fosters in the special | relationship. This “self” seeks the relationship to make itself |
| Tx:16.49 | the ego fosters in the special relationship. This “self” seeks the | relationship to make itself complete. Yet when it finds the special |
| Tx:16.49 | relationship to make itself complete. Yet when it finds the special | relationship in which it thinks it can accomplish this, it gives |
| Tx:16.51 | in littleness. The conviction of littleness lies in every special | relationship, for only the deprived could value specialness. The |
| Tx:16.51 | of love would make love hateful. And the real purpose of the special | relationship, in strict accordance with the ego's goals, is to |
| Tx:16.52 | If you perceived the special | relationship as a triumph over God, would you want it? Let us not |
| Tx:16.52 | you can live. And it is this theme which is acted out in the special | relationship. Through the death of your self, you think you can |
| Tx:16.53 | it helpless. See how exactly is this ritual enacted in the special | relationship. An altar is erected in between two separate people on |
| Tx:16.54 | Whenever any form of special | relationship tempts you to seek for love in ritual, remember love is |
| Tx:16.54 | remember love is content and not form of any kind. The special | relationship is a ritual of form, aimed at the raising of the form to |
| Tx:16.54 | is no meaning in the form, and there will never be. The special | relationship must be recognized for what it is—a senseless ritual |
| Tx:16.55 | of God have any influence at all upon it. See in the special | relationship nothing more than a meaningless attempt to raise other |
| Tx:16.59 | The search for the special | relationship is the sign that you equate yourself with the ego and |
| Tx:16.59 | you equate yourself with the ego and not with God. For the special | relationship has value only to the ego. To the ego unless a |
| Tx:16.59 | special relationship has value only to the ego. To the ego unless a | relationship has special value, it has no meaning, and it perceives |
| Tx:16.59 | love as special. Yet this cannot be natural, for it is unlike the | relationship of God and His Son, and all relationships that are |
| Tx:16.60 | you from the attraction of guilt, the real lure in the special | relationship. You do not recognize that this is its real appeal, for |
| Tx:16.60 | you that freedom lies in it. Yet the closer you look at the special | relationship, the more apparent it becomes that it must foster guilt |
| Tx:16.61 | The special | relationship is totally without meaning without a body. And if you |
| Tx:16.61 | also value the body. And what you value, you will keep. The special | relationship is a device for limiting your self to a body and for |
| Tx:16.61 | Great Rays would establish the total lack of value of the special | relationship if they were seen. For in seeing them, the body would |
| Tx:16.62 | in perfect faith, the universe would enter into it. Yet the special | relationship which the ego seeks does not include even one whole |
| Tx:16.64 | world together. This frame of reference is built around the special | relationship. Without this illusion, there can be no meaning you |
| Tx:16.65 | You could no longer find even the illusion of love in any special | relationship here. For you are no longer wholly insane, and you would |
| Tx:16.66 | Nothing you seek to strengthen in the special | relationship is really part of you. And you cannot keep part of the |
| Tx:16.66 | not allow you to betray yourself, and you could not enter into a | relationship where it could not go with you, for you would not be |
| Tx:16.69 | this little help of you. Whenever your thoughts wander to a special | relationship which still attracts you, enter with Him into a holy |
| Tx:16.70 | It is impossible to let the past go without relinquishing the special | relationship. For the special relationship is an attempt to reenact |
| Tx:16.70 | go without relinquishing the special relationship. For the special | relationship is an attempt to reenact the past and change it. |
| Tx:16.70 | perceived injustices, and deprivations all enter into the special | relationship, which becomes a way in which you seek to restore your |
| Tx:16.71 | The special | relationship takes vengeance on the past. By seeking to remove |
| Tx:16.71 | with the past and its total commitment to it. No special | relationship is experienced in the present. Shades of the past |
| Tx:16.73 | In the special | relationship, you are allowing your destruction to be. That this is |
| Tx:16.73 | its ally. The past is gone; seek not to preserve it in the special | relationship, which binds you to it and would teach you that |
| Tx:16.74 | In the special | relationship, it does not seem to be an acting out of vengeance which |
| Tx:16.74 | which the ego never allows to reach awareness is that the special | relationship is the acting out of vengeance on yourself. But what |
| Tx:16.74 | on yourself. But what else could it be? In seeking the special | relationship, you look not for glory in yourself. You have denied |
| Tx:16.74 | not for glory in yourself. You have denied that it is there, and the | relationship becomes your substitute for it. And vengeance becomes |
| Tx:16.79 | Kingdom to you and to place all your investment in salvation in your | relationship with Him. |
| Tx:16.80 | that will not give place to Him and to His majesty. To join in close | relationship with Him is to accept relationships as real and through |
| Tx:16.80 | their reality to give over all illusions for the reality of your | relationship with God. Praise be to your relationship with Him and to |
| Tx:16.80 | for the reality of your relationship with God. Praise be to your | relationship with Him and to no other. The truth lies here and |
| Tx:16.81 | Forgive us our illusions, Father, and help us to accept our true | relationship with You in which there are no illusions and where none |
| Tx:17.16 | But what you do not realize are all the reasons which go to make the | relationship unholy. For unholiness seeks to reinforce itself, as |
| Tx:17.17 | In the unholy | relationship, it is not the body of the other with which union is |
| Tx:17.17 | in the making, the maintaining, and the breaking off of the unholy | relationship is a move toward further fragmentation and unreality. |
| Tx:17.18 | Time is indeed unkind to the unholy | relationship. For time is cruel in the ego's hands, as it is kind |
| Tx:17.18 | as it is kind when used for gentleness. The attraction of the unholy | relationship begins to fade and to be questioned almost at once. Once |
| Tx:17.18 | what this means—the more reality that enters into the unholy | relationship, the less satisfying it becomes. And the more the |
| Tx:17.19 | The “ideal” of the unholy | relationship thus becomes one in which the reality of the other does |
| Tx:17.20 | thoughts is the spark of beauty hidden in the ugliness of the unholy | relationship in which the hatred is remembered, yet there to come |
| Tx:17.20 | in which the hatred is remembered, yet there to come alive as the | relationship is given to Him Who gives it life and beauty. That is |
| Tx:17.21 | to lose the sight of it again. And you will let it transform the | relationship so you can see it more and more. For you will want it |
| Tx:17.22 | spark of holiness must be safe, however hidden it may be, in every | relationship. For the Creator of the one relationship has left no |
| Tx:17.22 | hidden it may be, in every relationship. For the Creator of the one | relationship has left no part of it without Himself. |
| Tx:17.23 | This is the only part of the | relationship the Holy Spirit sees because He knows that only this is |
| Tx:17.23 | sees because He knows that only this is true. You have made the | relationship unreal and therefore unholy by seeing it where it is not |
| Tx:17.26 | your relationships and step between you and your fantasies. Let my | relationship to you be real to you, and let me bring reality to your |
| Tx:17.27 | God established His | relationship with you to make you happy, and nothing you do which |
| Tx:17.27 | is its only function. Because of His reason for creating His | relationship with you, the function of relationships became forever |
| Tx:17.28 | you have given them is clearly not to make happy. But the holy | relationship shares God's purpose, rather than aiming to make a |
| Tx:17.28 | rather than aiming to make a substitute for it. Every special | relationship which you have made is a substitute for God's Will and |
| Tx:17.29 | as it does constantly, you answer with a substitute. Every special | relationship which you have ever undertaken has as its fundamental |
| Tx:17.29 | that you will not hear the call of truth. In a sense the special | relationship was the ego's answer to the creation of the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:17.30 | about everything. And the truth is that the Holy Spirit is in close | relationship with you because in Him is your relationship with God |
| Tx:17.30 | Holy Spirit is in close relationship with you because in Him is your | relationship with God restored to you. The relationship with Him has |
| Tx:17.30 | because in Him is your relationship with God restored to you. The | relationship with Him has never been broken because the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:17.31 | its “protection” is part of it, as insane as the whole. The special | relationship, which is its chief defense, must therefore be insane. |
| Tx:17.32 | now in realizing that the thought system which the special | relationship protects is but a system of delusions. You recognize, at |
| Tx:17.32 | at least in general terms, that the ego is insane. Yet the special | relationship still seems to you somehow to be “different.” Yet we |
| Tx:17.34 | The special | relationship has the most imposing and deceptive frame of all the |
| Tx:17.42 | place and you to yours, you will experience again the meaning of | relationship and know it to be true. Let us ascend in peace together |
| Tx:17.42 | in every part of Him as in the whole. The whole reality of your | relationship with Him lies in our relationship to one another. The |
| Tx:17.42 | whole. The whole reality of your relationship with Him lies in our | relationship to one another. The holy instant shines alike on all |
| Tx:17.43 | The holy | relationship is the expression of the holy instant in living in this |
| Tx:17.43 | always felt. Yet without expression, it is not remembered. The holy | relationship is a constant reminder of the experience in which the |
| Tx:17.43 | relationship is a constant reminder of the experience in which the | relationship became what it is. And as the unholy relationship is a |
| Tx:17.43 | in which the relationship became what it is. And as the unholy | relationship is a continuing hymn of hate in praise of its maker, so |
| Tx:17.43 | is a continuing hymn of hate in praise of its maker, so is the holy | relationship a happy song of praise to the Redeemer of relationships. |
| Tx:17.44 | The holy | relationship, a major step toward the perception of the real world, |
| Tx:17.44 | the perception of the real world, is learned. It is the old unholy | relationship transformed and seen anew. The holy relationship is a |
| Tx:17.44 | is the old unholy relationship transformed and seen anew. The holy | relationship is a phenomenal teaching accomplishment. In all its |
| Tx:17.44 | and becomes accomplished, it represents the reversal of the unholy | relationship. Be comforted in this—the only difficult phase is the |
| Tx:17.44 | the only difficult phase is the beginning. For here, the goal of the | relationship is abruptly shifted to the exact opposite of what it |
| Tx:17.44 | opposite of what it was. This is the first result of offering the | relationship to the Holy Spirit to use for His purposes. |
| Tx:17.45 | replaces yours. This is accomplished very rapidly, but it makes the | relationship seem disturbed, disjunctive, and even quite distressing. |
| Tx:17.45 | and even quite distressing. The reason is quite clear. For the | relationship as it is, is out of line with its own goal and clearly |
| Tx:17.45 | this point, and the pursuit of the old goal reestablished in another | relationship. For once the unholy relationship has accepted the goal |
| Tx:17.45 | old goal reestablished in another relationship. For once the unholy | relationship has accepted the goal of holiness, it can never again be |
| Tx:17.46 | the ego becomes extremely intense with this shift in goals. For the | relationship has not as yet been changed sufficiently to make its |
| Tx:17.46 | new purpose. The conflict between the goal and the structure of the | relationship is so apparent that they cannot coexist. Yet now the |
| Tx:17.46 | Yet now the goal will not be changed. Set firmly in the unholy | relationship, there is no course except to change the relationship to |
| Tx:17.46 | in the unholy relationship, there is no course except to change the | relationship to fit the goal. Until this happy solution is seen and |
| Tx:17.46 | is seen and accepted as the only way out of the conflict, the | relationship seems to be severely strained. |
| Tx:17.47 | purpose could induce a complete change of mind about what the whole | relationship is for. As this change develops and is finally |
| Tx:17.47 | at the beginning, the situation is experienced as very precarious. A | relationship undertaken by two individuals for their unholy purposes |
| Tx:17.47 | suddenly has holiness for its goal. As these two contemplate their | relationship from the point of view of this new purpose, they are |
| Tx:17.47 | new purpose, they are inevitably appalled. Their perception of the | relationship may even become quite disorganized. And yet, the former |
| Tx:17.48 | introduced. If you believed the Holy Spirit was there to accept the | relationship, why would you now not still believe that He is there to |
| Tx:17.48 | in what but seems to be a trying time. The goal is set. And your | relationship has sanity as its purpose. For now you find yourselves |
| Tx:17.48 | has sanity as its purpose. For now you find yourselves in an insane | relationship, recognized as such in the light of its goal. |
| Tx:17.49 | Now the ego counsels thus—substitute for this another | relationship to which your former goal was quite appropriate. You can |
| Tx:17.49 | you shining conviction. Abandon Him not now, nor each other. This | relationship has been reborn as holy. |
| Tx:17.50 | many opportunities to blame each other for the “failure” of your | relationship, for it will seem at times to have no purpose. A sense |
| Tx:17.50 | found, and do not now breathe life into your failing egos. For your | relationship has not been disrupted. It has been saved. |
| Tx:17.52 | will leave you comfortless, for God Himself has blessed your holy | relationship. Join in His blessing, and withhold not yours upon it. |
| Tx:17.52 | And welcome it together, for it has come to join you together in a | relationship in which all the Sonship is together blessed. |
| Tx:17.53 | You undertook together to invite the Holy Spirit into your | relationship. He could not have entered otherwise. Although you may |
| Tx:17.65 | something has been done and where you see it done. A situation is a | relationship, being the joining of thoughts. If problems are |
| Tx:17.66 | for bodies cannot solve anything. And it is their intrusion on the | relationship, an error in your thoughts about the situation, which |
| Tx:17.67 | situation. But remember this: the goal of holiness was set for your | relationship and not by you. You did not set it because holiness |
| Tx:17.67 | it because holiness cannot be seen except through faith, and your | relationship was not holy because your faith in one another was so |
| Tx:17.68 | you find yourself is but a means to meet the purpose set for your | relationship. See it as something else, and you are faithless. Use |
| Tx:17.69 | to each other and used your faithlessness against each other. No | relationship is holy unless its holiness goes with it everywhere. As |
| Tx:17.71 | to everyone. There is no situation which does not involve your whole | relationship in every aspect and complete in every part. You can |
| Tx:17.71 | and keep the situation holy. For it shares the purpose of your whole | relationship and derives its meaning from it. |
| Tx:17.72 | faith that you give to each other, or you are faithless to your own | relationship. Your faith will call the others to share your purpose, |
| Tx:17.72 | room for truth.] When the Holy Spirit changed the purpose of your | relationship by exchanging yours for His, the goal He placed there |
| Tx:17.73 | no longer alone. For loneliness in God must be a dream. You whose | relationship shares the Holy Spirit's goal are set apart from |
| Tx:17.74 | the clear and unequivocal demonstration of the meaning of every | relationship and every situation, seen as a whole. Faith has accepted |
| Tx:17.79 | When you accepted truth as the goal for your | relationship, you became givers of peace as surely as your Father |
| Tx:18.1 | one is judged more valuable and the other is replaced by him. The | relationship in which the substitution occurred is thus fragmented |
| Tx:18.4 | rests upon it. Everything you see reflects it, and every special | relationship which you have ever made is part of it. |
| Tx:18.9 | In your | relationship, where He has taken charge of everything at your |
| Tx:18.9 | is the radiant truth to which the Holy Spirit has committed your | relationship. Let Him bring it here, where you would have it be. Give |
| Tx:18.11 | Heaven is restored to all the Sonship through your | relationship, for in it lies the Sonship, whole and beautiful, safe |
| Tx:18.11 | unto the truth in you and love has shined upon you, blessing your | relationship with truth. God and His whole creation have entered it |
| Tx:18.11 | creation have entered it together. How lovely and how holy is your | relationship, with the truth shining upon it! Heaven beholds it and |
| Tx:18.11 | that you have let it come to you. [And God Himself is glad that your | relationship is as it was created.] The universe within you stands |
| Tx:18.13 | with healing and uniting comfort. This is offered you in your holy | relationship. Accept it here, and you will give as you have accepted. |
| Tx:18.19 | idea that you can change it. In your waking dreams, the special | relationship [has a special place. It is the means by which you try |
| Tx:18.20 | to happy dreams. That is what the Holy Spirit does in your special | relationship. He does not destroy it nor snatch it away from you. |
| Tx:18.20 | as a help to make His purpose real to you.] Your special | relationship will remain, not as a source of pain and guilt, but as a |
| Tx:18.21 | Your special | relationship will be a means for undoing guilt in everyone blessed |
| Tx:18.21 | be a means for undoing guilt in everyone blessed through your holy | relationship. It will be a happy dream, and one which you will share |
| Tx:18.21 | of everyone. And He will waken everyone through you who offered your | relationship to Him. If you but recognized His gratitude! Or mine |
| Tx:18.22 | make a world that is unreal. The wish to make it is incredible. Your | relationship has become one in which the wish has been removed |
| Tx:18.23 | and it has come because you have been willing to let your special | relationship meet its conditions. In your relationship, the Holy |
| Tx:18.23 | to let your special relationship meet its conditions. In your | relationship, the Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world—the |
| Tx:18.27 | would leave you in the darkness you agreed to leave with me? In your | relationship is this world's light. And fear must disappear before |
| Tx:18.27 | You cannot take it back. You have accepted God. The holiness of your | relationship is established in Heaven. You do not understand what you |
| Tx:18.29 | In your | relationship, you have joined with me in bringing Heaven to the Son |
| Tx:18.29 | forever. My need for you, joined with me in the holy light of your | relationship, is your need for salvation. Would I not give you what |
| Tx:18.41 | the Atonement would have no meaning. The holy instant, your holy | relationship, the Holy Spirit's teaching, and all the means by which |
| Tx:18.43 | Through your holy | relationship, reborn and blessed in every holy instant which you do |
| Tx:18.45 | It is no dream to love your brother as yourself. Nor is your holy | relationship a dream. All that remains of dreams within it is that it |
| Tx:18.45 | All that remains of dreams within it is that it is still a special | relationship. Yet it is very useful to the Holy Spirit, Who has a |
| Tx:18.45 | not happiness. Let Him fulfill the function that He gave to your | relationship by accepting it for you, and nothing will be wanting |
| Tx:18.46 | When you feel the holiness of your | relationship is threatened by anything, stop instantly and offer the |
| Tx:18.46 | rather have. He will never fail in this. But forget not that your | relationship is one, and so it must be that whatever threatens the |
| Tx:18.67 | Your way will be different, not in purpose but in means. A holy | relationship is a means of saving time. One instant spent together |
| Tx:18.82 | Be sure of this—love has entered your special | relationship and entered fully at your weak request. You do not |
| Tx:18.97 | Your | relationship has been uprooted from the world of shadows, and its |
| Tx:19.13 | Your holy | relationship, with its new purpose, offers you faith to give unto |
| Tx:19.14 | and come to it together. There will you see the miracle of your | relationship as it was made again through faith. And there it is that |
| Tx:19.21 | armor, its protection, and the fundamental purpose of the special | relationship in its interpretation. |
| Tx:19.33 | to His and in eternal opposition to Him and to each other. Your holy | relationship has as its purpose now the goal of proving this is |
| Tx:19.36 | your Redeemer would have you look upon each other as yourself. Your | relationship is now a temple of healing—a place where all the weary |
| Tx:19.36 | for all after the journey. And it is brought nearer to all by your | relationship. |
| Tx:19.37 | unhindered. The extension of the Holy Spirit's purpose from your | relationship to others to bring them gently in [has already begun. |
| Tx:19.38 | where you will rest in Him. He answered you and entered your | relationship. Would you not now return His graciousness and enter |
| Tx:19.38 | Would you not now return His graciousness and enter into a | relationship with Him? For it is He Who offered your relationship the |
| Tx:19.38 | enter into a relationship with Him? For it is He Who offered your | relationship the gift of holiness, without which it would have been |
| Tx:19.44 | than to surmount your little wall. For in the miracle of your | relationship, without this barrier, is every miracle contained. There |
| Tx:19.44 | answered, He Who answered you would call. His home is in your holy | relationship. Do not attempt to stand between Him and His holy |
| Tx:19.44 | for it is yours. But let Him quietly extend the miracle of your | relationship to everyone contained in it, as it was given. |
| Tx:19.55 | whispering is ever heard. This is a feast which honors your holy | relationship and at which everyone is welcomed as an honored guest. |
| Tx:19.55 | you there, as long ago I promised and promise still. For in your new | relationship am I made welcome. And where I am made welcome, there I |
| Tx:19.63 | Father, not a little mound of clay, to be your home. In your holy | relationship is your Father's Son. He has not lost communion with Him |
| Tx:19.64 | no obstacle which you can place before our union, for in your holy | relationship, I am there already. We will surmount all obstacles |
| Tx:19.66 | From your holy | relationship truth proclaims the truth, and love looks on itself. |
| Tx:19.67 | freedom to each other and so releasing me. I am within your holy | relationship, yet you would imprison me behind the obstacles you |
| Tx:19.71 | through the body and not find pain. It is essential that this | relationship be understood, for it is one the ego sees as proof of |
| Tx:19.72 | all of the ego's heavy investment in the body. And it is this insane | relationship which it keeps hidden and yet feeds upon. To you it |
| Tx:19.77 | To you in whose special | relationship the Holy Spirit entered, it is given to release and be |
| Tx:19.86 | The end of sin, which nestles quietly in the safety of your | relationship, protected by your union, ready to grow into a mighty |
| Tx:20.17 | interference which makes it difficult for you to recognize your holy | relationship for what it is. |
| Tx:20.21 | Who in a holy | relationship can long remain unholy? The world the holy see is one |
| Tx:20.24 | true. You asked this puff of madness for the meaning of your unholy | relationship and adjusted it according to its insane answer. How |
| Tx:20.24 | in both of you to bless the other? That is the purpose of your holy | relationship. Ask not the means of its attainment of the one thing |
| Tx:20.33 | by two, yet the beginning of another world goes with them. Each holy | relationship must enter here to learn its special function in the |
| Tx:20.37 | In this world, God's Son comes closest to himself in a holy | relationship. There he begins to find the certainty his Father has in |
| Tx:20.38 | the unity of love proclaimed and given welcome. Peace to your holy | relationship, which has the power to hold the unity of the Son of God |
| Tx:20.41 | that sees the body has no use which serves the purpose of a holy | relationship. And while you look upon each other thus, the means and |
| Tx:20.42 | no more. Here, then, is everything. Here is the loveliness of your | relationship, with means and end in perfect harmony already. Here is |
| Tx:20.45 | The meaning of the Son of God lies solely in his | relationship with his Creator. If it were elsewhere, it would rest |
| Tx:20.45 | wholly loving and forever. Yet has the Son of God invented an unholy | relationship between him and his Father. His real relationship is one |
| Tx:20.45 | invented an unholy relationship between him and his Father. His real | relationship is one of perfect union and unbroken continuity. The one |
| Tx:20.46 | the contrast better than the experience of both a holy and an unholy | relationship. The first is based on love and rests on it, serene and |
| Tx:20.46 | it, serene and undisturbed. The body does not intrude upon it. Any | relationship in which the body enters is based not on love, but on |
| Tx:20.47 | cannot love. They do not understand what they are offered, and any | relationship in which they enter has lost its meaning. They live in |
| Tx:20.49 | The Holy Spirit's temple is not a body, but a | relationship. The body is an isolated speck of darkness; a hidden |
| Tx:20.49 | enclosure carefully protected, yet hiding nothing. Here the unholy | relationship escapes reality and seeks for crumbs to keep itself |
| Tx:20.51 | are idolaters no longer. The Holy Spirit's purpose lies safe in your | relationship and not your bodies. You have escaped the body. Where |
| Tx:20.52 | There is no order in relationships. They either are or not. An unholy | relationship is no relationship. It is a state of isolation which |
| Tx:20.52 | relationships. They either are or not. An unholy relationship is no | relationship. It is a state of isolation which seems to be what it is |
| Tx:20.52 | not. No more than that. The instant that the mad idea of making your | relationship with God unholy seemed to be possible, all your |
| Tx:20.53 | and its unlimited beneficence? Is the malevolence of the unholy | relationship, so seeming powerful and so bitterly misunderstood and |
| Tx:20.54 | The holy | relationship reflects the true relationship the Son of God has with |
| Tx:20.54 | The holy relationship reflects the true | relationship the Son of God has with his Father in reality. The Holy |
| Tx:20.57 | You have a real | relationship, and it has meaning. It is as like your real |
| Tx:20.57 | a real relationship, and it has meaning. It is as like your real | relationship with God as equal things are like unto each other. |
| Tx:20.57 | with you. Yet what is that to those who have been given one true | relationship beyond the body? Can they be long held back from looking |
| Tx:20.57 | the face of Christ? And can they long withhold the memory of their | relationship with their Father from themselves and keep remembrance |
| Tx:20.58 | means and end and how these must be brought in line before your holy | relationship can bring you only joy. But we have also said the means |
| Tx:20.59 | The period of discomfort that follows the sudden change in a | relationship from sin to holiness should now be almost over. To the |
| Tx:20.62 | The body is the means by which the ego tries to make the unholy | relationship seem real. The unholy instant is the time of bodies. But |
| Tx:20.65 | the Holy Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How can a holy | relationship achieve its purpose through the means of sin? Judgment |
| Tx:20.68 | not willingly be free of misery and learn again of joy? Your holy | relationship offers all this to you. As it was given you, so will be |
| Tx:20.69 | his sinlessness, as it is yours. And bless the Son of God in your | relationship, nor see in him what you have made of him. |
| Tx:20.72 | before you. All that could save you, you will never see. Your holy | relationship, the source of your salvation, will be deprived of |
| Tx:21.13 | course. It is the same small willingness you need to have your whole | relationship transformed to joy; the little gift you offer to the |
| Tx:21.29 | is to set a limit, and any brother with whom you have a limited | relationship you hate. You may attempt to keep the bargain in the |
| Tx:21.29 | to ease the guilt that comes from the accepted purpose of the | relationship. And that is why the Holy Spirit must change its purpose |
| Tx:21.34 | sees perception as a means to teach you that the vision of a holy | relationship is all you want to see. Then will you give your faith to |
| Tx:21.43 | from their belief that their identity lies in the ego. A holy | relationship is one in which you join with what is part of you in |
| Tx:21.47 | kept it out so long. Heaven has come because it found a home in your | relationship on earth. And earth can hold no longer what has been |
| Tx:21.90 | For you have asked that nothing stand between the holiness of your | relationship and your awareness of its holiness. |
| Tx:22.2 | The holiness of your | relationship forgives you both, undoing the effects of what you both |
| Tx:22.2 | justified. And all this would be real if sin were so. For an unholy | relationship is based on differences, where each one thinks the other |
| Tx:22.3 | A holy | relationship starts from a different premise. Each one has looked |
| Tx:22.3 | does he stand, but close enough not to return to earth. For this | relationship has Heaven's holiness. How far from home can a |
| Tx:22.3 | For this relationship has Heaven's holiness. How far from home can a | relationship so like to Heaven be? |
| Tx:22.4 | Think what a holy | relationship can teach! Here is belief in differences undone. Here is |
| Tx:22.4 | where you recognize the Son of God. For what is born into a holy | relationship can never end. |
| Tx:22.11 | So in each holy | relationship is the ability to communicate instead of separate |
| Tx:22.11 | is the ability to communicate instead of separate reborn. Yet a holy | relationship, so recently reborn itself from an unholy relationship |
| Tx:22.11 | Yet a holy relationship, so recently reborn itself from an unholy | relationship and yet more ancient than the old illusion that it has |
| Tx:22.12 | yet as old as He, a tiny newcomer, dependent on the holiness of your | relationship to let Him live. |
| Tx:22.15 | For He is always drawn unto Himself. What is as like Him as a holy | relationship? And what draws you together draws Him to you. Here are |
| Tx:22.15 | to Christ is drawn to God as surely as both are drawn to every holy | relationship, the home prepared for them as earth is turned to Heaven. |
| Tx:22.26 | what he is if God would have it so. What God has given to your holy | relationship is there. For what He gave the Holy Spirit to give to |
| Tx:22.27 | it from the bright endless circle that extends forever is your holy | relationship, beloved of God Himself. How still it rests, in time and |
| Tx:22.37 | A holy | relationship, however newly born, must value holiness above all else. |
| Tx:22.37 | Unholy values will produce confusion, and in awareness. In an unholy | relationship, each one is valued because he seems to justify the |
| Tx:22.37 | causing sin by his desire to have sin real. Yet reason sees a holy | relationship as what it is—a common state of mind, where both give |
| Tx:22.44 | learned it was not given him alone. Such is the function of a holy | relationship—to receive together and give as you received. Standing |
| Tx:22.54 | This holy | relationship, lovely in its innocence, mighty in strength, and |
| Tx:22.54 | it can be misused, and nothing given it but will be used. This holy | relationship has the power to heal all pain, regardless of its form. |
| Tx:22.55 | Before a holy | relationship there is no sin. The form of error is no longer seen, |
| Tx:22.55 | was a mistake.” And then the same Atonement you accepted in your | relationship corrects the error and lays a part of Heaven in its |
| Tx:22.56 | that serve the timeless. And no illusion can disturb the peace of a | relationship which has become the means of peace. |
| Tx:22.64 | This is the function of your holy | relationship. For what one thinks the other will experience with him. |
| Tx:22.64 | when you have accepted it with gladness, you will realize that your | relationship is a reflection of the union of the Creator and His Son. |
| Tx:22.65 | creation joined. Would you regret you cannot fear alone when your | relationship can also teach the power of love is there, which makes |
| Tx:23.23 | Think what this seems to do to the | relationship between the Father and the Son. Now it appears that they |
| Tx:23.23 | and by the other. Now are they different and enemies. And their | relationship is one of opposition, just as the separate aspects of |
| Tx:23.50 | The lovely light of your | relationship is like the love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy |
| Tx:23.50 | your little gifts and make them mighty. Also He understands how your | relationship is raised above the battleground, in it no more. This is |
| Tx:24.9 | Is it not always your belief your specialness is limited by your | relationship? And is not this the “enemy” that makes you both |
| Tx:24.10 | not the same and none your Father does not share with you. For your | relationship has been made clean of special goals. And would you now |
| Tx:24.23 | establish sin love's substitute and serve it faithfully. And no | relationship that holds its purpose dear but clings to murder as |
| Tx:26.47 | by sanity. Sickness and sin are seen as consequence and cause in a | relationship kept hidden from awareness that it may be carefully |
| Tx:26.73 | take forever. The change of purpose the Holy Spirit brought to your | relationship has in it all effects that you will see. They can be |
| Tx:26.89 | And in this game do you perceive one purpose for your whole | relationship. And this you seek to add unto the purpose given it. The |
| Tx:28.61 | The beautiful | relationship you have with all your brothers is a part of you because |
| W1:13.8 | This is our first attempt at stating an explicit cause and effect | relationship of a kind which you are very inexperienced in |
| W1:42.1 | both of major importance. It also sets forth a cause and effect | relationship which explains why you cannot fail in your efforts to |
| W1:43.10 | to today's idea is suitable. The thoughts need not bear an obvious | relationship to the idea, but they should not be in opposition to it. |
| W1:45.1 | that you think you see is related to vision in any way. There is no | relationship between what is real and what you think is real. Nothing |
| W1:183.12 | Voice gives answer in his Father's holy Name. In this eternal, still | relationship, in which communication far transcends all words and yet |
| M:I.3 | exclusively by what you think you are and what you believe the | relationship of others is to you. In the formal teaching situation, |
| M:2.5 | speaks to any two who join together for learning purposes. The | relationship is holy because of that purpose, and God has promised to |
| M:2.5 | that purpose, and God has promised to send His Spirit into any holy | relationship. In the teaching-learning situation, each one learns |

| Tx:1.38 | to the miracle level underneath. In conscious actions, then, his | relationships also become superficial, and miracle-inspired relating |
| Tx:1.59 | occurs, the whole family of God, or the Sonship, is impaired in its | relationships. Ultimately, every member of the family of God must |
| Tx:2.97 | be capitalized, is His Son. This entails a set of Cause and Effect | relationships which are totally different from those which man |
| Tx:4.95 | Everything the ego perceives is a separate whole, without the | relationships that imply being. The ego is thus against communication |
| Tx:5.40 | time and war. Perception as well as knowledge derives meaning from | relationships. Those which you accept are the foundations of your |
| Tx:5.44 | because of what you saw in them but less than knowledge of your real | relationships to them, because you did not accept them as part of |
| Tx:8.70 | its constellation is permanent. The only areas in which part-whole | relationships have any meaning are those in which change is possible. |
| Tx:10.53 | breaking it up into small and disconnected parts without meaningful | relationships and thus without meaning. The ego will always |
| Tx:13.21 | Insane ideas have no real | relationships, for that is why they are insane. No real relationship |
| Tx:13.21 | rest on guilt or even hold one spot of it to mar its purity. For all | relationships which guilt has touched are used but to avoid the |
| Tx:13.21 | touched are used but to avoid the person and the guilt. What strange | relationships you have made for this strange purpose! And you forgot |
| Tx:13.21 | you have made for this strange purpose! And you forgot that real | relationships are holy and cannot be used by you at all. They are |
| Tx:13.23 | them stand between you and your brothers, with whom you find no real | relationships at all. Can you expect to use your brothers as a means |
| Tx:13.30 | You cannot enter into real | relationships with any of God's Sons unless you love them all and |
| Tx:13.30 | of the Sonship for your love, you are imposing guilt on all your | relationships and making them unreal. You can love only as God loves. |
| Tx:15.46 | to limit love to part of the Sonship is to bring guilt into your | relationships and thus make them unreal. If you seek to separate out |
| Tx:15.47 | no special love, how can you understand it? To believe that special | relationships, with special love, can offer you salvation is the |
| Tx:15.48 | Because of guilt, all special | relationships have some elements of fear in them. And this is why |
| Tx:15.48 | as Interpreter of what you have made, the Holy Spirit uses special | relationships, which you have chosen to support the ego, as a |
| Tx:15.49 | no one is special. Yet He also perceives that you have made special | relationships, which He would purify and not let you destroy. However |
| Tx:15.51 | The ego's use of | relationships is so fragmented that it frequently goes even further— |
| Tx:15.52 | Everyone on earth has formed special | relationships, and although this is not so in Heaven, the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:15.54 | All your | relationships are blessed in the holy instant because the blessing is |
| Tx:15.56 | and find peace within it. Under the Holy Spirit's teaching, all | relationships are seen as total commitments, yet they do not conflict |
| Tx:15.58 | perceive yourself as weak. Yet there is another interpretation of | relationships which transcends the concept of loss of power |
| Tx:15.65 | on which the ego embarks is special. The ego establishes | relationships only to get something. And it would keep the giver |
| Tx:15.68 | you. And thus it embarks on an endless, unrewarding chain of special | relationships, forged out of anger and dedicated to but one insane |
| Tx:15.69 | name of Him Who would release him, let us look more closely at the | relationships which the ego contrives and let the Holy Spirit judge |
| Tx:15.71 | In these insane | relationships, the attraction of what you do not want seems to be |
| Tx:15.71 | forgiveness that the ego can ensure the guilt which holds all its | relationships together. |
| Tx:15.72 | Yet they only seem to be together. For | relationships, to the ego, mean only that bodies are together. It is |
| Tx:15.74 | and this attempt is the only basis which the ego accepts for special | relationships. Guilt is the only need the ego has, and as long as you |
| Tx:15.80 | Hear Him gladly and learn of Him that you have need of no special | relationships at all. You but seek in them what you have thrown away. |
| Tx:15.82 | not His creation. Nothing that ever was created but is yours. Your | relationships are with the universe. And this universe, being of God, |
| Tx:15.84 | let Him Whose teaching is only of God teach you the only meaning of | relationships. For God created the only relationship which has |
| Tx:15.86 | Yet it remains the only means by which you can establish real | relationships. |
| Tx:15.87 | Real | relationships have no limits, having been established by God. In the |
| Tx:15.87 | the Great Rays replace the body in awareness, the recognition of | relationships without limits is given you. But to see this, it is |
| Tx:15.89 | in Heaven, where you are complete and quiet in such sure and loving | relationships that any limit is impossible. Would you not exchange |
| Tx:15.89 | that any limit is impossible. Would you not exchange your little | relationships for this? For the body is little and limited, and only |
| Tx:15.98 | you or another? You seek to answer this question in your special | relationships, in which you are both destroyer and destroyed in part, |
| Tx:15.101 | fearful to you. And you would bargain with them for a few special | relationships in which you think you see some scraps of safety. Do |
| Tx:15.112 | Make this year different by making it all the same. And let all your | relationships be made holy for you. This is our will. Amen. |
| Tx:16.9 | function, for He will fulfill it if you but ask Him to enter your | relationships and bless them for you. |
| Tx:16.42 | If special | relationships of any kind would hinder God's completion, can they |
| Tx:16.59 | for it is unlike the relationship of God and His Son, and all | relationships that are unlike this one must be unnatural. For God |
| Tx:16.67 | you and look not back with longing on the travesty it made of your | relationships. Now no one need suffer, for you have come too far to |
| Tx:16.72 | and seeks retribution of you. The fantasies it brings to the special | relationships it chooses in which to act out its hate are fantasies |
| Tx:16.80 | to His majesty. To join in close relationship with Him is to accept | relationships as real and through their reality to give over all |
| Tx:17.15 | into unholy alliances which support the ego's goals and make your | relationships the witness to its power. It is these shadow figures |
| Tx:17.16 | The shadow figures always speak for vengeance, and all | relationships into which they enter are totally insane. Without |
| Tx:17.16 | into which they enter are totally insane. Without exception, these | relationships have as their purpose the exclusion of the truth about |
| Tx:17.16 | and seems to you to go by the name of love. And finally why all such | relationships become the attempt at union through the body, for only |
| Tx:17.16 | seen as means for vengeance. That bodies are central to all unholy | relationships is evident. Your own experience has taught you this. |
| Tx:17.18 | doubt must enter in because its purpose is impossible. The only such | relationships which retain the fantasies that center on them are |
| Tx:17.19 | His interpretation of the body as a means of communication into | relationships whose only purpose is separation from reality? What |
| Tx:17.21 | must be undone. Let Him uncover the hidden spark of beauty in your | relationships and show it to you. Its loveliness will so attract you |
| Tx:17.24 | against the present. For the present is forgiveness. Therefore, the | relationships which the unholy alliance dictates are not perceived |
| Tx:17.26 | My holy brothers, I would enter into all your | relationships and step between you and your fantasies. Let my |
| Tx:17.26 | the holy purpose of Atonement be lost to you in dreams of vengeance. | Relationships in which such dreams are cherished have excluded me. |
| Tx:17.27 | His reason for creating His relationship with you, the function of | relationships became forever “to make happy.” And nothing else. To |
| Tx:17.28 | that the Holy Spirit would not deprive you of your special | relationships but would transform them. And by that all that is meant |
| Tx:17.29 | You have made very real | relationships even in this world which you do not recognize simply |
| Tx:17.30 | from anyone since the separation. And through Him have all your holy | relationships been carefully preserved to serve God's purpose for you. |
| Tx:17.42 | relationship to one another. The holy instant shines alike on all | relationships, for in it they are one. For here is only healing, |
| Tx:17.43 | is the holy relationship a happy song of praise to the Redeemer of | relationships. |
| Tx:17.45 | that seemed to give it meaning. Now it seems to make no sense. Many | relationships have been broken off at this point, and the pursuit of |
| Tx:18.2 | sees as one. But everything seems to come between the fragmented | relationships the ego sponsors to destroy. |
| Tx:18.58 | far exceeds the dream of freedom sometimes experienced in special | relationships. It is a sense of actual escape from limitations. |
| Tx:19.51 | love would look upon is meaningless to fear and quite invisible. | Relationships in this world are the result of how the world is seen. |
| Tx:20.17 | any kind are of the ego. For it is the ego's fixed belief that all | relationships depend upon adjustments to make of them what it would |
| Tx:20.17 | upon adjustments to make of them what it would have them be. Direct | relationships, in which there are no interferences, are always seen |
| Tx:20.17 | seen as dangerous. The ego is the self-appointed mediator of all | relationships, making whatever adjustments it deems necessary and |
| Tx:20.47 | hide and keep their secrets hidden along with them. And they have no | relationships, for no one else is welcome there. They smile on no |
| Tx:20.48 | obscure and hidden from the sun. It does not seek for power, but for | relationships. The body is the ego's chosen weapon for seeking power |
| Tx:20.48 | The body is the ego's chosen weapon for seeking power through | relationships. And its relationships must be unholy, for what they |
| Tx:20.48 | ego's chosen weapon for seeking power through relationships. And its | relationships must be unholy, for what they are, it does not even |
| Tx:20.50 | from those who worship them. This is the temple dedicated to no | relationships and no return. Here is the “mystery” of separation |
| Tx:20.52 | There is no order in | relationships. They either are or not. An unholy relationship is no |
| Tx:20.52 | your relationship with God unholy seemed to be possible, all your | relationships were made meaningless. In that unholy instant, time was |
| Tx:20.54 | in gladness for the holy one of safe return. Here is the way to true | relationships held gently open, through which you walk together, |
| Tx:20.56 | him to replace the unholy one he chose before. And here can he learn | relationships are his salvation and not his doom. You who are |
| Tx:20.62 | the body, you have chosen judgment and not vision. For vision, like | relationships, has no order. You either see or not. |
| Tx:20.63 | in darkness is your brother's reality imagined as a body, in unholy | relationships with other bodies, serving the cause of sin an instant |
| Tx:21.29 | All special | relationships have sin as their goal. For they are bargains with |
| Tx:23.30 | salvation. It has no substitute, and there is only one. And all your | relationships have but the purpose of seizing it and making it your |
| Tx:30.87 | is undone. All sacrifice entails the loss of your ability to see | relationships among events. And looked at separately, they have no |
| Tx:31.58 | as learning goes along. Each one will show the changes in your own | relationships as your perception of yourself is changed. There will |
| W1:R1.6 | to apply the ideas as was suggested then. We are now emphasizing the | relationships among the first fifty of the ideas we have covered and |

| Tx:2.16 | It is quite apparent that this | release does not depend on the kind of “knowledge” which is nothing |
| Tx:2.52 | Atonement is applied is irrelevant. Essentially, all healing is the | release from fear. To undertake this, you cannot be fearful yourself. |
| Tx:2.60 | this world, it is essential that they fully understand the fear of | release. Otherwise, they may unwittingly foster the belief that |
| Tx:2.60 | of release. Otherwise, they may unwittingly foster the belief that | release is imprisonment, a belief that is very prevalent. This |
| Tx:2.75 | The correction of fear is your responsibility. When you ask for | release from fear, you are implying that it is not. You should ask |
| Tx:2.93 | persist in creating it. I told you before that you cannot ask me to | release you from fear because I know it does not exist, but you do |
| Tx:3.63 | You have no idea of the tremendous | release and deep peace that comes from meeting yourselves and your |
| Tx:4.18 | Release yourselves and release others. Do not present a false and | |
| Tx:4.18 | Release yourselves and | release others. Do not present a false and unworthy picture of |
| Tx:4.54 | unconscious, deeply repressed by the ego, is the declaration of your | release. God has given you everything. This is the one fact that |
| Tx:4.61 | change your mind about those your ego has hurt, the Atonement cannot | release you. As long as you feel guilty, your ego is in command |
| Tx:5.77 | to interpret correctly what former generations have thought and thus | release their thoughts from the ability to produce fear anywhere in |
| Tx:5.78 | and therefore unsharing, it will be reinterpreted entirely to | release you from fear. The part of your thought which you have given |
| Tx:5.86 | a point in time. This clearly could have been a means toward real | release from the time belief, had Freud pursued it with an open mind. |
| Tx:5.87 | with which it disagrees. This again could have been a powerful | release mechanism had Freud not decided to involve it in a strong |
| Tx:5.89 | only partially insane and was unable to relinquish the hope of | release even though he could not cope with it. The reason for this |
| Tx:6.5 | foolish journey that the Sonship need take and that it should mean | release from fear to anyone who understands it. While we emphasized |
| Tx:7.91 | Only you can limit your creative power, but God wills to | release it. He no more wills you to deprive yourself of your |
| Tx:8.17 | why you need Him and why God gave Him to you. Only His teaching will | release your will to God's, uniting it with His power and glory and |
| Tx:8.68 | full awareness of its complete impossibility lie your only hope for | release. But what other hope would you want? Freedom from illusions |
| Tx:8.84 | Healing is | release from the fear of waking and the substitution of the will to |
| Tx:8.108 | its physical expression. In this case he is not really asking for | release from fear but for the removal of a symptom which he has |
| Tx:9.51 | make every effort to recover and mobilize its energies against your | release. It will tell you that you are insane and argue that grandeur |
| Tx:10.58 | thought system you want to be true. Every brother has the power to | release you if you will to be free. You cannot accept false witness |
| Tx:10.83 | God without fear, for only thus can you learn that His answer is the | release from fear. Beautiful Child of God, you are asking only for |
| Tx:11.20 | I awakened myself, for I awoke for you. In my resurrection is your | release. Our mission is to escape crucifixion, not redemption. Trust |
| Tx:11.92 | indeed, but the journey on which his Father sets him is one of | release and joy. The Father is not cruel, and His Son cannot hurt |
| Tx:11.93 | seeking to escape from the prison he has made, and the way to find | release is not denied him. Being in him, he has found it. When he |
| Tx:12.8 | The Atonement has always been interpreted as the | release from guilt, and this is correct if it is understood. Yet even |
| Tx:12.27 | to the present as if it were the past. The ego cannot tolerate | release from the past, and although the past is no more, the ego |
| Tx:12.27 | yourself to let it go. You thus deny yourself the message of | release that every brother offers you now. |
| Tx:12.28 | and losing the endless opportunities which you could find for | release in the present. The ego would preserve your nightmares and |
| Tx:12.31 | then, would keep you in time, while the Holy Spirit would | release you from it. It is His interpretation of the means of |
| Tx:12.32 | accomplished in the past and must be accomplished in the present to | release the future. This interpretation ties the future to the |
| Tx:12.39 | it is unworthy of you because it is unworthy of Him. Yet He would | release you from it and set you free. His sane answer tells you that |
| Tx:12.47 | no past, for He is changeless, and in His changelessness lies your | release. For if He is as He was created, there is no guilt in Him. No |
| Tx:12.48 | Time can | release as well as imprison, depending on whose interpretation of it |
| Tx:12.49 | are releasing him. And since his past is yours, you share in this | release. Let no dark cloud out of your past obscure him from you, for |
| Tx:12.52 | Now is the time of salvation, for now is the | release from time. Reach out to all your brothers and touch them with |
| Tx:13.1 | All therapy is | release from the past. That is why the Holy Spirit is the only |
| Tx:13.12 | Release from guilt is the ego's whole undoing. Make no one fearful, | |
| Tx:13.16 | not, for while you do, it cannot be undone. With everyone whom you | release from guilt, great is the joy in Heaven, where the witnesses |
| Tx:13.21 | ends what you should have given to Him, He cannot use them unto your | release. No one who would unite in any way with anyone for his own |
| Tx:13.29 | Release from guilt as you would be released. There is no other way to | |
| Tx:13.36 | freedom rising unto Heaven. Gladness and joy belong to God for your | release, because you made it not. Yet as you made not freedom, so you |
| Tx:13.59 | the lesson which this light brings to them because it teaches them | release from nothing and from all the works of nothing. The heavy |
| Tx:13.59 | And you will see it with them. Because you taught them gladness and | release, they will become your teachers in release and gladness. |
| Tx:13.59 | taught them gladness and release, they will become your teachers in | release and gladness. |
| Tx:13.89 | to you. God breaks no barriers; neither did He make them. When you | release them, they are gone. God will not fail nor ever has in |
| Tx:14.9 | Do not withhold this glad acknowledgment, for hope of happiness and | release from suffering of every kind lie in it. Who is there but |
| Tx:14.10 | Each effort made on its behalf is offered for the single purpose of | release from guilt to the eternal glory of God and His creation. And |
| Tx:14.11 | what is the right of God's creation. From everyone whom you accord | release from guilt, you will inevitably learn your innocence. The |
| Tx:14.14 | the resurrection became my part in it. That is the symbol of the | release from guilt by guiltlessness. Whom you perceive as guilty, you |
| Tx:14.14 | Holy Spirit sees only guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would | release from fear and reestablish the reign of love. The power of |
| Tx:14.21 | it are but expressing conflict, from which the Holy Spirit would | release you. Leave what you would communicate to Him. He will |
| Tx:14.29 | Spirit from means of self-destruction to means of preservation and | release. His task is mighty, but the power of God is with Him. |
| Tx:14.40 | Merely by being what it is does truth | release you from everything that it is not. The Atonement is so |
| Tx:15.13 | never give this holy instant to the Holy Spirit on behalf of your | release while you are unwilling to give it to your brothers on behalf |
| Tx:15.13 | then, when you are tempted to attack a brother, that his instant of | release is yours. Miracles are the instants of release you offer and |
| Tx:15.13 | that his instant of release is yours. Miracles are the instants of | release you offer and will receive. They attest to your willingness |
| Tx:15.14 | for you join with Him in giving. In the crystal cleanness of the | release you give is your instantaneous escape from guilt. You must be |
| Tx:15.15 | may be remembered for you in that shining instant of perfect | release. Offer the miracle of the holy instant through the Holy |
| Tx:15.19 | who has been released through the Holy Spirit in a brother, if the | release is complete, is always recognized. He cannot be denied. As |
| Tx:15.19 | remain uncertain, it can be only because you have not given complete | release. And because of this, you have not given one single instant |
| Tx:15.33 | your plan for His. Rather, join with me in His that we may | release all those who would be bound, proclaiming together that the |
| Tx:15.35 | into glad awareness while you do not want it, for it holds the whole | release from littleness. |
| Tx:15.37 | your holy part in the plan that He has given to the world for its | release from littleness. God would have His host abide in perfect |
| Tx:15.39 | yours. I call to you to make the holy instant yours at once, for the | release from littleness in the mind of the host of God depends on |
| Tx:15.69 | of God, who cannot make himself host to the ego. In the name of his | release, and in the name of Him Who would release him, let us look |
| Tx:15.69 | ego. In the name of his release, and in the name of Him Who would | release him, let us look more closely at the relationships which the |
| Tx:15.79 | such as His, He must use everything in this world for your | release. He must side with every sign or token of your willingness to |
| Tx:15.79 | which He perceives as clearly as He knows forgiveness is | release, He will teach you to remember that forgiveness is not loss |
| Tx:15.85 | perception of your brothers to the body, so would the Holy Spirit | release your vision and let you see the Great Rays shining from them, |
| Tx:15.88 | divide your strength between Heaven and hell, God and the ego, and | release your power unto creation, which is the only purpose for which |
| Tx:15.88 | of a brother to his body, which you will do as long as you would not | release him from it, and you have denied his gift to you. His body |
| Tx:15.90 | And limit not your vision of God's Son to what interferes with his | release and what the Holy Spirit must undo to set him free. For his |
| Tx:15.92 | Him. The only gift I can accept of you is the gift I gave to you. | Release me as I will your release. The time of Christ we celebrate |
| Tx:15.92 | accept of you is the gift I gave to you. Release me as I will your | release. The time of Christ we celebrate together, for it has no |
| Tx:15.103 | that you may join with Him in healing, and let us celebrate our | release together by releasing everyone with us. Leave nothing behind, |
| Tx:15.103 | together by releasing everyone with us. Leave nothing behind, for | release is total, and when you have accepted it with me, you will |
| Tx:15.111 | to use you to imprison myself. In the name of my freedom I will your | release, because I recognize that we will be released together. |
| Tx:16.6 | this about is so distorted that it would imprison what it would | release. The unredeemed cannot redeem, yet they have a Redeemer. |

| Tx:18.53 | you not welcome and support the shift from fantasies of vengeance to | release from them? Your perception of the body can clearly be sick, |
| Tx:18.61 | would be, gaining, not losing, a sense of self. In these instants of | release from physical restrictions, you experience much of what |
| Tx:18.66 | future. You cannot prepare for it without placing it in the future. | Release is given you the instant you desire it. Many have spent a |
| Tx:18.66 | and very time consuming, for all of them look to the future for | release from a state of present unworthiness and inadequacy. |

| Tx:19.61 | Is it a sacrifice or a | release? What has the body really given you that justifies your |

| Tx:19.67 | Forgive me your illusions and | release me from punishment for what I have not done. So will you |

| Tx:19.77 | whose special relationship the Holy Spirit entered, it is given to | release and be released from the dedication to death. For it was |
| Tx:19.81 | condemned the Son of God to this are arrogant. But you who would | release him are but honoring the Will of his Creator. The arrogance |
| Tx:19.83 | incorruptible have been given through your acceptance the power to | release from corruption. What better way to teach the first and |
| Tx:19.85 | twisted rituals of condemnation to which the body leads you. Ask not | release of it. But free it from the merciless and unrelenting orders |
| Tx:19.103 | they attack. This is your brother, crucified by sin, and waiting for | release from pain. Would you not offer him forgiveness, when only he |
| Tx:19.107 | thinks he sees within himself. Offer each other freedom and complete | release from sin here in the garden of seeming agony and death. So |
| Tx:20.1 | the crucifixion of God's Son, but happily in the celebration of his | release. For Easter is the sign of peace, not pain. A slain Christ |
| Tx:20.3 | light of his own innocence lighting his way to his redemption and | release. Hold him not back with thorns and nails when his redemption |
| Tx:20.4 | of this stranger, alien to you and yet your ancient Friend, lie his | release and your redemption with him. The time of Easter is a time of |
| Tx:20.11 | Spirit, you have received. The Son of God looks unto you for his | release. For you have asked for and been given the strength to look |
| Tx:20.32 | sinlessness within your brother and share with him the power of the | release from sin you offered him. To each who walks this earth in |
| Tx:20.32 | solitude is a savior given, whose special function here is to | release him and so to free himself. In the world of separation, each |
| Tx:20.65 | it leads you to reality. Your holy brother, sight of whom is your | release, is no illusion. Attempt to see him not in darkness, for your |
| Tx:21.14 | This is the only thing that you need do for vision, happiness, | release from pain, and the complete escape from sin, all to be given |
| Tx:21.17 | to you to give yourself. For by this gift is given you the power to | release your savior that he may give salvation unto you. |
| Tx:21.28 | separate from your Father, you made in secret, and the instant of | release has come to you. All its effects are gone because its source |
| Tx:21.45 | was. It has been waiting for the birth of freedom, the acceptance of | release to come to you. And now you recognize that it was not the ego |
| Tx:21.64 | more dear than truth? Reason will tell you that this fact is your | release. Neither your brother nor yourself can be attacked alone. But |
| Tx:21.84 | will look on it and think it real. No thought but has the power to | release or kill. And none can leave the thinker's mind or leave him |
| Tx:22.43 | with their Redeemer and carrying His message of hope and freedom and | release from suffering to everyone who needs a miracle to save him. |
| Tx:23.26 | There can be no | release and no escape. Atonement thus becomes a myth, and vengeance, |
| Tx:24.18 | meaning. And it is one you both can understand, and one which brings | release to both of you. Here stands your brother with the key to |
| Tx:24.26 | illusions can be forgiven, and then they disappear. Forgiveness is | release from all illusions, and that is why it is impossible but |
| Tx:24.31 | this. The way is barred to love and to salvation. Yet if you would | release your brother from the depths of hell, you have forgiven Him |
| Tx:24.53 | in him but keeps you both in hell. Yet will his perfect sinlessness | release you both, for holiness is quite impartial, with one judgment |
| Tx:25.7 | purity, in love celestial and so complete it wishes only that it may | release all that it looks upon unto itself. Its radiance shines |
| Tx:25.29 | same, your choice is made. For it is seeing them as one that brings | release from the belief there are two ways to see. This world has |
| Tx:26.9 | it of you. What is the Holy Spirit's special function but to | release the holy Son of God from the imprisonment he made to keep |
| Tx:26.11 | The Holy Spirit offers you | release from every problem that you think you have. They are the same |
| Tx:26.16 | Think then how great your own | release will be when you are willing to receive correction for all |
| Tx:26.36 | [Forgiveness is the great | release from time. It is the key to learning that the past is over. |
| Tx:26.61 | the cause can merely shift effects to other forms. And this is not | release. God's Son could never be content with less than full |
| Tx:26.63 | is in your memory. And to this name, your brother calls for his | release and yours. Heaven is shining on the Son of God. Deny him not, |
| Tx:27.2 | In your | release from sacrifice is his made manifest and shown to be his own. |
| Tx:27.49 | which all eyes look lovingly upon the Friend who brought them their | release. And happily your brother will perceive the many friends he |
| Tx:28.40 | meet him not because his dreams would separate from you. Therefore, | release him, merely by your claim on brotherhood and not on dreams of |
| Tx:29.10 | Why would you not perceive it as | release from suffering to learn that you are free? Why would you not |
| Tx:29.35 | Believe him not. But learn instead how blessed are you who can | release him just by offering him yours. |
| Tx:29.49 | To change all this and open up a road of hope and of | release in what appeared to be an endless circle of despair, you need |
| Tx:29.70 | who figures in the dream. And so they bring the dreamer full | release from dreams of fear. He does not fear his judgment, for he |
| Tx:31.23 | about the sinfulness in you. Hear but his call for mercy and | release from all the fearful images he holds of what he is and of |
| Tx:31.31 | be. It does not guard your sleep nor interfere with your awakening. | Release your body from imprisonment, and you will see no one as |
| Tx:31.32 | The innocent | release in gratitude for their release. And what they see upholds |
| Tx:31.32 | The innocent release in gratitude for their | release. And what they see upholds their freedom from imprisonment |
| Tx:31.37 | where there is none, what power of decision can he use? The great | release of power must begin with learning where it really has a use. |
| Tx:31.74 | what you see is hell, for fear is hell. All that is given you is for | release—the sight, the vision, and the inner Guide all lead you out |
| Tx:31.82 | tempted not to listen when you learn that it is you for whom He asks | release? And what but this is what this course would teach? And what |
| Tx:31.87 | would not leave you comfortless, alone in dreams of hell, but would | release your minds from everything that hides His face from you. His |

| Tx:31.93 | hear my voice and listen to my words. I ask for nothing but your own | release. There is no place for hell within a world whose loveliness |

| W1:44.5 | the thoughts which you have made up. Properly speaking, this is the | release from hell. Perceived through the ego's eyes, it is loss of |
| W1:50.3 | confidence. Tell yourself this often today. It is a declaration of | release from the belief in idols. It is your acknowledgment of the |

| W1:71.9 | part; it is inherent in the first. And in the first is your full | release from all your own insane attempts and mad proposals to free |
| W1:71.9 | depression and anger. But God's plan will succeed. It will lead to | release and joy. |
| W1:73.11 | You will succeed today, the time appointed for the | release of the Son of God from hell and from all idle wishes. His |

| W1:89.5 | Holy Spirit's and perceive them as one. By this idea do I accept my | release from hell. By this idea do I express my willingness to have |
| W1:94.11 | exercises today. Each one you do will be a giant stride toward your | release and a milestone in learning the thought system which this |
| W1:96.7 | Perhaps you hope it can. Yet would you have God's plan for the | release of His dear Son bring pain to him and fail to set him free? |

| W1:121.2 | world. The unforgiving mind is sad, without the hope of respite and | release from pain. It suffers and abides in misery, peering about in |
| W1:121.7 | opportunity to teach your own how to forgive itself. Each one awaits | release from hell through you and turns to you imploringly for Heaven |
| W1:126.6 | cannot give you peace as you perceive it. It is not a means for your | release from what you see in someone other than yourself. It has no |

| W1:169.13 | for grace and for experience that comes from grace. We welcome the | release it offers everyone. We do not ask for the unaskable. We do |
| W1:169.15 | I live. By grace I am released. By grace I give. By grace I will | release. |
| W1:170.9 | This moment can be terrible. But it can also be the time of your | release from abject slavery. You make a choice, standing before this |

| Tx:15.103 | with Him in healing, and let us celebrate our release together by | releasing everyone with us. Leave nothing behind, for release is |
| Tx:19.2 | because you offered faith to him, giving him to the Holy Spirit and | releasing him from every demand your ego would make of him. Thus do |

| Tx:6.75 | between two opposing thought systems is clearly to choose one and | relinquish the other. If you identify with your thought system, and |
| Tx:6.95 | a statement of what you want to believe and entails a willingness to | relinquish everything else. I told you that you were just beginning |

| Tx:11.85 | itself and escape the penalty of denial. It is not an attempt to | relinquish denial but to hold on to it. For it is guilt that has |
| Tx:15.60 | you and unite this idea with the mind that thought it and could not | relinquish it. By holding it within itself, there was no loss. The |

| W1:138.8 | and grip the mind with terror and anxiety so strong that it will not | relinquish its ideas about its own protection. It must be saved from |

| Tx:7.105 | God's decision. That is His Will, and you can not undo it. Even the | relinquishment of your false decision-making prerogative, which the |
| Tx:9.2 | of the ego, and correction of errors of any kind lies solely in the | relinquishment of the ego. When you correct a brother, you are |

| Tx:2.87 | As long as you recognize only the need for the remedy, you will | remain fearful. However, as soon as you remedy it, you have also |
| Tx:2.111 | everything he retains is loveable, there is no reason for fear to | remain with him. This is his part in the Atonement. |
| Tx:3.48 | God and the Souls He created | remain in surety, and therefore know that no miscreation exists. |
| Tx:4.51 | worthy enough to guide you. In this you are as free as God and must | remain so forever. You can never be bound except in honor, and that |

| Tx:5.2 | love cannot coexist and if it is impossible to be wholly fearful and | remain alive, then the only possible whole state is that of love. |
| Tx:5.20 | to return, but what God creates is eternal. The Holy Spirit will | remain with the Sons of God to bless their creations and keep them in |
| Tx:5.69 | and a remedy whose efficacy is beyond doubt, how can its symptoms | remain? You have reason to question the validity of symptom cure, but |
| Tx:5.69 | validity of symptom cure, but no one believes that the symptoms can | remain if the underlying cause is removed. |
| Tx:5.70 | The continuing will to | remain separated is the only possible reason for continuing guilt |
| Tx:5.72 | retaliation or abandonment and thus ensure that the future will | remain like the past. This is the ego's continuity and gives it a |

| Tx:9.51 | is compellingly convincing. Yet the conviction of reality will not | remain with you unless you do not allow the ego to attack it. The ego |
| Tx:9.106 | to be desirable, the concept of choice, which is not of God, will | remain with you. While this is not true in eternity, it is true in |
| Tx:10.20 | Whenever you ask the ego to enter, you lessen His welcome. He will | remain, but you have allied yourself against Him. Whatever journey |
| Tx:10.22 | are free to determine who shall be your guest and how long he shall | remain with you. Yet this is not real freedom, for it still depends |

| Tx:12.9 | to the light, the light will dispel it. And then no dark cloud will | remain between you and the remembrance of your Father, for you will |
| Tx:12.21 | in peace and returning to the Father? If the Son did not wish to | remain in peace, he could not remain at all. For a darkened mind |
| Tx:12.21 | the Father? If the Son did not wish to remain in peace, he could not | remain at all. For a darkened mind cannot live in the light, and it |
| Tx:12.51 | then, hold the past against them? For if you do, you are choosing to | remain in the darkness that is not there and refusing to accept the |
| Tx:13.14 | you condemn a brother, you are saying, “I who was guilty choose to | remain so.” You have denied his freedom, and by so doing you have |
| Tx:13.44 | of redemption will be fulfilled as surely as the creation will | remain unchanged throughout eternity. You do not have to know that |
| Tx:13.82 | most unnatural habit of not communicating with your Creator. Yet you | remain in close communication with Him and with everything that is |
| Tx:14.8 | light in answer to the call of the Atonement. Never allow purity to | remain hidden, but shine away the heavy veils of guilt within which |
| Tx:14.67 | Him ever so little. Yet He cannot compel His Son to turn to Him and | remain Himself. It is impossible that God lose His Identity, for if |
| Tx:14.68 | How can you, so firmly bound to guilt and committed so to | remain, establish for yourself your guiltlessness? That is |
| Tx:15.19 | complete, is always recognized. He cannot be denied. As long as you | remain uncertain, it can be only because you have not given complete |

| Tx:15.74 | need the ego has, and as long as you identify with it, guilt will | remain attractive to you. |
| Tx:15.75 | or you will lose them, and if your bodies are together your minds | remain your own. The union of bodies thus becomes the way in which |
| Tx:15.89 | of the eternal. No one can hear Him speak of this and long | remain willing to linger here. For it is your will to be in Heaven, |
| Tx:16.30 | lies in this you do not realize. And until you do, the split will | remain unrecognized and therefore unhealed. |
| Tx:16.47 | In this it sees the ultimate freedom of the self, for nothing would | remain to interfere with it. This is its idea of Heaven. From this it |
| Tx:17.4 | it so, so long will the illusion of order of difficulty in miracles | remain with you. For you have established this order in reality by |
| Tx:17.55 | within, the gladness, too, is yours. You are joined in purpose, but | remain still separate and divided on the means. |
| Tx:17.67 | not come separately. What situation can you be in without faith and | remain faithful to each other? |
| Tx:18.6 | from this? [It was inevitable.] For truth brought to this could only | remain within in quiet and take no part in all the mad projection by |
| Tx:18.10 | but in the Thought so holy and so perfect that illusions cannot | remain to darken the holy place in which you stand together. God is |
| Tx:18.20 | and uses them as means for waking. You would have used them to | remain asleep. We once said that the first change, before dreams |
| Tx:18.20 | to make His purpose real to you.] Your special relationship will | remain, not as a source of pain and guilt, but as a source of joy and |
| Tx:18.29 | light, and this willingness has given strength to everyone who would | remain in darkness. Those who would see will see. And they will join |
| Tx:18.31 | the little spark of your desire the power of God Himself, can you | remain in darkness? You are coming home together after a long and |
| Tx:18.34 | Humility will never ask that you | remain content with littleness. But it does require that you be not |
| Tx:18.40 | believe to be impossible will be if God so wills it, but you will | remain quite unaware of it. If you believe the holy instant is |
| Tx:18.40 | it is because you have become the arbiter of what is possible and | remain unwilling to give place to One Who knows. The whole belief in |
| Tx:18.50 | You hate your minds, for guilt has entered into them, and they would | remain separate, which they cannot do. |
| Tx:18.69 | Into this place the Holy Spirit comes and there abides. He will | remain when you forget and the body's activities return to occupy |
| Tx:18.70 | raging activity. This quiet center, in which you do nothing, will | remain with you, giving you rest in the midst of every busy doing on |
| Tx:18.77 | in neither sun nor ocean is the power that rests in you. Would you | remain within your tiny kingdom, a sorry king, a bitter ruler of all |
| Tx:18.87 | body that could speak of this. Its eyes perceive it not; its senses | remain quite unaware of it; its tongue cannot relay its messages. Yet |
| Tx:18.89 | The body will | remain guilt's messenger and will act as it directs as long as you |
| Tx:19.8 | Truth and illusion have no connection. This will | remain forever true, however much you seek to connect them. But |
| Tx:19.17 | bodies, can attack. And thus the mind is guilty and will forever so | remain unless a mind not part of it can give it absolution. Sin calls |
| Tx:19.32 | would prove what God created holy could not prevail against it nor | remain itself before the power of sin. Sin is perceived as mightier |
| Tx:20.21 | Who in a holy relationship can long | remain unholy? The world the holy see is one with them, just as the |
| Tx:20.22 | and who will wander off. He came without a purpose, but he will not | remain before the shining light the Holy Spirit offered and you |
| Tx:20.62 | the purpose of unholiness. Because of this consistency, the means | remain unquestioned while the end is cherished. Vision adapts to |
| Tx:21.5 | be no problem. You are not happy learners yet because you still | remain uncertain that vision gives you more than judgment does, and |
| Tx:22.18 | to joy, for time gives way to the eternal. Only the timeless must | remain unchanged, but everything in time can change with time. Yet if |
| Tx:22.28 | anyone who is but willing to see his brother sinless. And no one can | remain beyond this willingness if you would be released entirely from |
| Tx:22.28 | Can you reach Heaven while a single sin still tempts you to | remain in misery? Heaven is the home of perfect purity, and God |
| Tx:22.56 | of everything that is eternal. No trace of anything in time can long | remain in minds that serve the timeless. And no illusion can disturb |
| Tx:23.12 | matters not what form they take. What made them is insane, and they | remain part of what made them. Madness holds out no menace to reality |
| Tx:23.25 | made inevitable and beyond the help of God. And now salvation must | remain impossible because the savior has become the enemy. |
| Tx:23.43 | teach a little of the same can still be different, and yet the same | remain intact as one. Does this make sense? Can it be understood? |
| Tx:23.46 | can offer safety? Can guilt be absent from a battlefield? [Do not | remain in conflict, for there is no war without attack.] |
| Tx:23.52 | will gently lean to you and hold you up. For you have chosen to | remain where He would have you, and no illusion can attack the peace |
| Tx:24.18 | Heaven in his hand held out to you. Let not the dream of specialness | remain between you. What is one is joined in truth. |
| Tx:24.39 | this senseless dream in which God is bereft of what He loves and you | remain beyond salvation. Only this is certain in this shifting world |
| Tx:25.27 | agree, then must the Maker of the world correct your error, lest you | remain in darkness where the lamps are not. Everyone here has entered |
| Tx:25.40 | you may share in it with him. Alone does neither have it. So must it | remain useless to both. Together, it will give to each an equal |
| Tx:25.45 | will your savior be unrecognized by you. Nor does He will that he | remain without the function that He gave to him. Let him no more be |
| Tx:25.49 | let him understand that he is safe, as he has always been and will | remain in time and in eternity alike. This is the function given each |
| Tx:25.82 | Yet does the problem still | remain unsolved, for only justice can set up a state in which there |
| Tx:25.84 | it for yourself to solve without His help is to decide it should | remain unsettled, unresolved, and lasting in its power of injustice |
| Tx:26.21 | are no simple facts because what is the same and what is different | remain unclear. The one essential thing to make a choice at all is |
| Tx:26.45 | is no friendship worthy of God's Son, nor one with which he could | remain content. Yet God has given him a better Friend in Whom all |
| Tx:26.56 | What is forgiveness but a willingness that truth be true? What can | remain unhealed and broken from a Unity Which holds all things within |
| Tx:26.69 | trust would settle every problem now. Thus do you think it safer to | remain a little careful and a little watchful of interests perceived |
| Tx:27.9 | of the grave. If this were true, there would be reason to | remain content to seek for passing joys and cherish little pleasures |
| Tx:27.15 | mercy but retain the proof he is not really innocent. The sick | remain accusers. They cannot forgive their brothers and themselves as |
| Tx:27.42 | meaningful at all. And so unless the answer tells “of whom,” it will | remain unrecognized, unheard, and thus the question is preserved |
| Tx:27.52 | One Who really understands its laws and Who will guarantee that they | remain unviolated and unlimited. Your part is merely to apply what He |
| Tx:28.43 | union with him. His desire to be a sick and separated mind cannot | remain without a witness or a cause. And both are gone if someone |
| Tx:29.22 | shadows must give way to light. The darkness cannot choose that it | remain. The coming of the light means it is gone. In glory will you |

| W1:2.1 | If possible, turn around and apply the idea to what was behind you. | Remain as indiscriminate as possible in selecting subjects for its |
| W1:33.2 | eyes and survey your inner thoughts with equal casualness. Try to | remain equally uninvolved in both and to maintain this detachment as |
| W1:70.13 | illusions of salvation have failed you, surely you do not want to | remain in the clouds looking vainly for idols there when you could so |
| W1:75.3 | of the old and the beginning of the new. No shadows from the past | remain to darken our sight and hide the world forgiveness offers us. |
| W1:79.5 | just as you think you have resolved the previous ones. Others | remain unsolved under a cloud of denial and rise to haunt you from |
| W1:91.2 | To you, then, light is crucial. While you | remain in darkness, the miracle remains unseen. Thus you are |
| W1:94.2 | True light is strength, and strength is sinlessness. If you | remain as God created you, you must be strong and light must be in |
| W1:94.2 | in the sinlessness in which you were created and in which you will | remain throughout eternity. |
| W1:95.6 | however, for those whose motivation is inconsistent and who | remain heavily defended against learning. |
| W1:96.8 | Your Self retains its thoughts, and they | remain within your mind and in the Mind of God. The Holy Spirit holds |
| W1:97.7 | moment, and goes out. Yet will the steady brilliance of this light | remain, and leads you out of darkness, nor will you be able to forget |
| W1:106.7 | when everything is yours, and everything is given away, it will | remain with you forever. And the lesson has been learned. |
| W1:107.1 | illusions but the truth? And what are errors but illusions that | remain unrecognized for what they are? Where truth has entered, |
| W1:108.4 | Here it is understood that both occur together, that the thought | remain complete. And in this understanding is the base on which all |
| W1:110.2 | If you | remain as God created you, fear has no meaning, evil is not real, and |
| W1:110.3 | If you | remain as God created you, appearances cannot replace the truth, |
| W1:110.3 | for life or fear for love. All this has not occurred if you | remain as God created you. You need no thought but just this one to |
| W1:112.3 | [94] I am as God created me. I will | remain forever as I was, Created by the Changeless like Himself. And |
| W1:122.9 | accepting Heaven's answer to the hell we made, but where we would | remain no more. |
| W1:123.3 | thanks that He has not abandoned you and that His Love forever will | remain shining on you, forever without change. Give thanks as well |
| W1:125.5 | which you hold about yourself. He knows His Son and wills that he | remain as part of Him regardless of his dreams, regardless of his |
| W1:126.2 | your perception of yourself, while you can judge their sin and yet | remain apart from condemnation and at peace. |
| W1:127.2 | other times. He also thinks that love can be bestowed on one and yet | remain itself although it is withheld from others. To believe these |
| W1:129.3 | things you really want and know they have no ending, and they will | remain exactly as you want them throughout time? |
| W1:130.4 | have no cause, no being, and no consequence. They can be valued but | remain unreal. They can be sought, but they cannot be found. |
| W1:132.10 | your eternal state. How can a world of time and place exist if you | remain as God created you? |
| W1:132.17 | I who | remain as God created me would loose the world from all I thought it |
| W1:136.14 | you made against the truth. Yet what God wills is here, and you | remain as He created you. |
| W1:136.15 | Truth has a power far beyond defense, for no illusions can | remain where it has been allowed to enter. And it comes to any mind |
| W1:137.4 | is merely to accept what always was the simple truth and always will | remain exactly as it has forever been. Yet eyes accustomed to |
| W1:137.11 | accepts it not within his mind becomes a haven where the weary can | remain to rest. For here is truth bestowed, and here are all |
| W1:139.11 | I will accept Atonement for myself, for I | remain as God created me. |
| W1:139.14 | I will accept Atonement for myself, for I | remain as God created me. |
| W1:152.5 | As God created you, you must | remain unchangeable with transitory states by definition false. And |
| W1:155.3 | This is the simple choice we make today. The mad illusion will | remain awhile in evidence for those to look upon who chose to come |
| W1:155.7 | paths which lead nowhere, choices for defeat, and aims which will | remain impossible. All this steps back as truth comes forth in you to |
| W1:159.9 | their home when they are carried back into the world. Their roots | remain. They do not leave their source, but carry its beneficence |
| W1:165.6 | lies there and nowhere else. Would God consent to let His Son | remain forever starved by his denial of the nourishment he needs to |
| W1:167.5 | Death cannot come from life. Ideas | remain united to their source. They can extend all that their source |
| W1:167.8 | Forever unopposed by opposites of any kind, the thoughts of God | remain forever changeless with the power to extend forever |
| W1:169.8 | what must be a constant state, forever as it always was; forever to | remain as it is now. We merely take the part assigned long since and |
| W1:169.10 | then, that you have work to do to play your part. The ending must | remain obscure to you until your part is done. It does not matter. |
| W1:170.12 | reached this place before, but you have chosen that this cruel god | remain with you in still another form, and so the fear of God |
| W1:R5.8 | and pain, although I know they have no meaning. Yet a savior must | remain with those he teaches, seeing what they see, but still |
| W1:181.8 | from the misery the focus upon sin will bring and, uncorrected, will | remain. |
| W1:184.5 | Yet does this other vision still | remain a natural direction for the mind to channel its perception. It |
| W1:185.9 | requested them. Yet will God's peace come just as certainly and to | remain with you forever. It will not be gone with every twist and |
| W1:185.11 | himself no longer by denying to himself what is God's Will. Who can | remain unsatisfied who asks for what he has already? Who could be |
| W1:188.7 | God's peace is shining on them, but they must | remain with you as well, for they were born within your mind as yours |
| W1:193.13 | to hurt His sacred Son in any way. He would ensure his holy rest | remain untroubled and serene, without a care in an eternal home which |
| W1:193.17 | let everything that happens in its course go with it. Thus will you | remain unbound, in peace eternal in the world of time. This is the |
| W1:196.12 | When the fear of God is gone, there are no obstacles that still | remain between you and the holy peace of God. How kind and merciful |
| W2:I.1 | For now we seek direct experience of truth alone. The lessons which | remain are merely introductions to the times in which we leave the |

| W2:243.1 | with myself today. I will not think that I already know what must | remain beyond my present grasp. I will not think I understand the |
| W2:255.1 | to the truth of what He says. God's Son can have no cares and must | remain forever in the peace of Heaven. In his name I give today to |
| W2:256.1 | be uncertain? Who could be unsure of who he is? And who would yet | remain asleep in heavy clouds of doubt about the holiness of him whom |
| W2:263.2 | And while we still | remain outside the gate of Heaven, let us look on all we see through |
| W2:268.1 | my Self as You created me. In Love was I created, and in Love will I | remain forever. What can frighten me when I let all things be exactly |
| W2:WIC.2 | in Him His Father placed the means for your salvation, yet does He | remain the Self Who, like His Father, knows no sin. |
| W2:WIC.3 | Home of the Holy Spirit and at home in God alone, does Christ | remain at peace within the Heaven of your holy mind. This is the only |
| W2:WIC.4 | upon the world and peace has come to every Son of God, what could | remain to keep things separate, for what remains to see except |
| W2:WIHS.4 | to sanity and peace of mind. Without forgiveness will your dreams | remain to terrify you. And the memory of all your Father's Love will |
| W2:299.2 | forever perfect and untouched. In it are all things healed, for they | remain as You created them. And I can know my holiness. For Holiness |
| W2:307.1 | in being and in will, and nothing contradicts the holy truth that I | remain as You created me. |
| W2:332.2 | it now. For as we offer freedom, it is given us. And we would not | remain as prisoners while You hold out our freedom unto us. |

| W2:343.1 | things are given unto me forever and forever. As I was created, I | remain. Your Son can make no sacrifice, for he must be complete, |
| W2:360.1 | I am Your Son, forever just as You created me, for the Great Rays | remain forever still and undisturbed within me. I would reach to them |
| W2:360.1 | to all the world. In holiness were we created, and in holiness do we | remain. Your Son is like to You in perfect sinlessness, and with this |

| M:14.3 | waits on the goals of God's teachers. Not one thought of sin will | remain the instant any one of them accepts the Atonement for himself. |
| M:21.3 | this will be received. It is impossible that the prayer of the heart | remain unanswered in the perception of the one who asks. If he asks |
| M:22.7 | Himself? Who then can say who can be healed of what and what must | remain beyond God's power to forgive? This is insanity indeed. It is |

| W1:158.1 | because you were created out of Love. Nor have you left your Source, | remaining as you were created. This was given you as knowledge which |

| Tx:15.56 | from perfect faith in yourself. And this you cannot have while guilt | remains. And there will be guilt as long as you accept the |
| Tx:15.59 | to believe that, when another calls on God for love, your call | remains as strong. Nor do you think that, by God's answer to him, |
| Tx:15.86 | and deprived of meaning, it will not satisfy you completely. Yet it | remains the only means by which you can establish real relationships. |

| Tx:17.9 | you learn to reach. Fantasies are all undone, and no one and nothing | remains still bound by them, and by your own forgiveness, you are |
| Tx:17.20 | If all but loving thoughts has been forgotten, what | remains is eternal. And the transformed past is made like the |
| Tx:17.32 | system which you have been more willing to let go. While this one | remains, you will not let the others go. For this one is not |

| Tx:18.74 | total dependence on them for its being. Its whole existence still | remains in them. Without the sun the sunbeam would be gone; the |
| Tx:18.81 | Heaven. No part of love calls on the whole in vain. No Son of God | remains outside His Fatherhood. |

| Tx:19.16 | or limited in any way except by the mind that thought it. For it | remains joined to its source, which is its jailor or its liberator, |
| Tx:19.25 | so acute that the sin is denied the acting out, but while the guilt | remains attractive the mind will suffer and not let go of the idea of |
| Tx:19.27 | not repeat it; you will merely stop and let it go unless the guilt | remains. For then you will but change the form of sin, granting that |
| Tx:19.33 | while before it vanishes. Only the habit of looking for it still | remains. |

| Tx:21.52 | that stems from reason, the basic question is obvious, simple, and | remains unasked. But think not reason could not answer it. |
| Tx:21.84 | those who wish for constancy. The power of the Son of God's desire | remains the proof that he is wrong who sees himself as helpless. |

| Tx:22.60 | the fear of God in place, unmovable and solid as a rock. While this | remains, so will it seem to be. |
| Tx:23.47 | The fear of God is fear of life and not of death. Yet He | remains the only place of safety. In Him is no attack, and no |

| Tx:26.3 | becomes the sign that sacrifice is limited and something still | remains for you alone. And for this little to belong to you are |
| Tx:26.29 | so will you go with them. For no one hears the song of Heaven and | remains without a voice that adds its power to the song and makes it |
| Tx:26.30 | teacher leads. There are but two directions you can take while time | remains and choice is meaningful. For never will another road be made |

| Tx:26.85 | What then | remains to be undone for you to realize Their Presence? Only this— |
| Tx:27.34 | within itself it is the same. The other half of what it represents | remains unknown but is not canceled out. And thus is God left free to |

| Tx:31.97 | one illusion is accorded faith, and not one spot of darkness still | remains to hide the face of Christ from anyone. Thy Will is done, |
| W1:19.5 | however, that random selection of subjects for all practice periods | remains essential throughout. Lack of order in this connection will |
| W1:39.11 | you elect to use it, the idea should be stated so that its meaning | remains that your holiness is your salvation. |
| W1:56.5 | is in everything I see. Behind every image I have made, the truth | remains unchanged. Behind every veil I have drawn across the face of |
| W1:56.5 | Behind every veil I have drawn across the face of love, its light | remains undimmed. Beyond all my insane wishes is my will united with |
| W1:68.3 | Shut off from your Self, which | remains aware of its likeness to its Creator, your Self seems to |
| W1:83.7 | from my function. The oneness of my happiness and my function | remains wholly unaffected by this. Nothing, including this, can |
| W1:91.2 | then, light is crucial. While you remain in darkness, the miracle | remains unseen. Thus you are convinced it is not there. This follows |
| W1:91.5 | to what you want, and you instruct your mind accordingly. Your will | remains your teacher, and your will has all the strength to do what |
| W1:92.7 | share. It judges and condemns but does not love. In darkness it | remains to hide itself and dreams that it is strong and conquering, a |
| W1:96.16 | Your Self knows that you cannot fail today. Perhaps your mind | remains uncertain yet a little while. Be not dismayed by this. The |
| W1:107.1 | whence they came. From dust to dust they come and go, for only truth | remains. |
| W1:108.2 | And thus what is the same is seen as one, while what is not the same | remains unnoticed, for it is not there. |
| W1:109.4 | rest in God, and while the world is torn by winds of hate, your rest | remains completely undisturbed. Yours is the rest of truth. |
| W1:113.3 | comes from my One Self. From my One Self, Whose knowledge still | remains Within my mind, I see God's perfect plan For my salvation |
| W1:122.5 | for your salvation cannot change, nor can it fail. Be thankful it | remains exactly as He planned it. Changelessly it stands before you, |
| W1:123.1 | back and no implacable resistance to the truth. A bit of wavering | remains, some small objections, and a little hesitance, but we can |
| W1:124.2 | recognize the way because the light we carry stays behind, yet still | remains with us as we walk on. |
| W1:126.5 | sometimes choose to give indulgently an undeserved reprieve. Yet it | remains your right to let the sinner not escape the justified |
| W1:126.7 | must heal the mind that gives, for giving is receiving. What | remains as unreceived has not been given, but what has been given |
| W1:129.4 | yet surely understood. Communication, unambiguous and plain as day, | remains unlimited for all eternity. And God Himself speaks to His Son |
| W1:130.3 | seen in darkness that is real? Truth is eclipsed by fear, and what | remains is but imagined. Yet what can be real in blind imaginings of |
| W1:130.5 | overlap of any kind. Seek for the one; the other disappears. But one | remains. They are the range of choice beyond which your decision |
| W1:130.12 | what you will behold is hell indeed. Yet the release of Heaven still | remains within your range of choice to take the place of everything |
| W1:131.6 | No one | remains in hell, for no one can abandon his Creator nor affect His |
| W1:131.8 | Heaven | remains your one alternative to this strange world you made and all |
| W1:132.3 | thoughts of seeking what you do not want to find. The present now | remains the only time. Here in the present is the world set free. For |
| W1:135.18 | consider incompatible with your beliefs of your reality. Yet what | remains is meaningless indeed. For it is your reality which is the |
| W1:135.25 | you. But they are answers to another kind of question which | remains unanswered yet in need of answering until the Answer comes to |
| W1:136.5 | Your not remembering is but the sign that this decision still | remains in force as far as your desires are concerned. |
| W1:136.12 | God knows not of your plans to change His Will. The universe | remains unheeding of the laws by which you thought to govern it. And |
| W1:136.19 | response at all is in the mind to what the body does. Its usefulness | remains and nothing more. |
| W1:137.1 | Today's idea | remains the central thought on which salvation rests. For healing is |
| W1:137.6 | and more stable than the mind. And love becomes a dream, while fear | remains the one reality that can be seen and justified and fully |
| W1:138.6 | which settles all decisions. If you could decide the rest, this one | remains unsolved. But when you solve this one, the others are |
| W1:140.2 | him well. Yet he has not awakened from the dream, and so his mind | remains exactly as it was before. He has not seen the light that |
| W1:151.5 | you believe that this is so with stubborn certainty. Yet underneath | remains the hidden doubt that what it shows you as reality with such |
| W1:151.14 | was falsely added. All the threads of fantasy are gone, and what | remains is unified into a perfect thought that offers its perfection |
| W1:153.19 | that His strength abides in us. We will remind ourselves that He | remains beside us through the day and never leaves our weakness |
| W1:156.3 | He is there must be holiness as well as life. No attribute of His | remains unshared by everything that lives. What lives is holy as |
| W1:156.7 | to God is near. And in the little interval of doubt which still | remains, you may perhaps lose sight of your Companion, and mistake |
| W1:160.1 | to yourself. And thus you are unknown to you. What is your Self | remains an alien to the part of you which thinks that it is real but |
| W1:160.6 | is no stranger now. The miracle will come. For in his home his Self | remains. It asked no stranger in and took no alien thought to be |
| W1:160.8 | nor is your Creator stranger made to you. Whom God has joined | remains forever one, at home in Him, no stranger to Himself. |
| W1:164.6 | worthy of your love receives your love, while nothing to be feared | remains. |
| W1:165.3 | having found them, would he not make sure they stay with him and he | remains with them? |
| W1:165.4 | Conviction lies within it. Till you welcome it as yours, uncertainty | remains. Yet God is fair. Sureness is not required to receive what |
| W1:165.7 | directs we do. His sureness lies beyond our every doubt. His love | remains beyond our every fear. The thought of Him is still beyond all |
| W1:168.1 | hide from us. We try to hide from Him and suffer from deception. He | remains entirely accessible. He loves His Son. There is no certainty |
| W1:168.1 | this, yet this suffices. He will love His Son forever. When his mind | remains asleep, He loves him still. And when his mind awakes, He |
| W1:168.4 | every face as hearts rise up and claim the light as theirs. What now | remains that Heaven be delayed an instant longer? What remains undone |
| W1:168.4 | What now remains that Heaven be delayed an instant longer? What | remains undone when your forgiveness rests on everything? |
| W1:169.6 | as his Father has in him. The world has never been at all. Eternity | remains a constant state. |
| W1:169.12 | How could you finally attain to it forever while a part of you | remains outside, unknowing, unawakened, and in need of you as witness |
| W1:170.13 | Now your voice belongs to God and echoes His. And now your heart | remains at peace forever. You have chosen Him in place of idols, and |
| W1:R5.7 | review will shorten time immeasurably if we keep in mind that This | remains our goal, and as we practice, it is This to which we are |
| W1:I2.3 | our progress still. Experience of what exists beyond defensiveness | remains beyond achievement while it is denied. It may be there, but |
| W1:182.12 | you hear, and this the Call which cannot be denied. The holy Child | remains with you. His home is yours. Today He gives you His |
| W1:185.14 | hide, the brotherhood that hate has sought to sever, but which still | remains as God created it. With help like this beside us, can we fail |
| W1:187.5 | Give gladly. You can only gain thereby. The thought | remains and grows in strength as it is reinforced by giving. Thoughts |
| W1:187.6 | grief, at poverty, starvation and at death. He recognizes sacrifice | remains the one idea that stands behind them all, and in his gentle |
| W1:188.3 | to caress each living thing and leave a blessing with it which | remains forever and forever. What it gives must be eternal. It |
| W1:191.2 | that this is what you see? Deny your own Identity, and this is what | remains. You look on chaos and proclaim it as yourself. There is no |
| W1:193.11 | perception? If it does, be sure the lesson is not learned. And there | remains an unforgiveness hiding in the mind which sees the pain |
| W1:195.8 | For hatred is forgotten when we lay comparisons aside. What more | remains as obstacles to peace? The fear of God is now undone at last, |
| W1:197.7 | Their gratitude to all They have created has no end, for gratitude | remains a part of love. |
| W1:198.8 | and that the holy Son of God can die! The stillness of your Self | remains unmoved, untouched by thoughts like these, and unaware of any |
| W1:198.13 | made quiet in a dreamless sleep. And now the Word of God alone | remains upon it. Only that can be perceived an instant longer. Then |
| W2:I.5 | Now are all ancient promises upheld and fully kept. No step | remains for time to separate from its accomplishment. For now we |
| W2:228.2 | have not left that Source to enter in a body and to die. My holiness | remains a part of me, as I am part of You. And my mistakes about |
| W2:230.2 | then must be here now, for my creation was apart from time and still | remains beyond all change. The peace in which Your Son was born into |
| W2:238.2 | much our Father loves us. And how dear His Son, created by His Love, | remains to Him Whose Love is made complete in him. |
| W2:256.1 | can but dream. But we can dream we have forgiven him in whom all sin | remains impossible, and it is this we choose to dream today. God is |
| W2:259.2 | You are the Source of everything that is. And everything that is | remains with You and You with it. |
| W2:WIB.1 | himself as what his safety is. How else could he be certain he | remains within the body, keeping love outside? |
| W2:262.1 | is Your one creation. Why should I perceive a thousand forms in what | remains as one? Why should I give this one a thousand names, when |
| W2:WIC.2 | lies, where all decisions are already made and dreams are over. He | remains untouched by anything the body's eyes perceive. For though in |
| W2:WIC.4 | Son of God, what could remain to keep things separate, for what | remains to see except Christ's face? |
| W2:282.1 | the determination not to be asleep in dreams of death while truth | remains forever living in the joy of life. And this the choice to |
| W2:282.1 | to recognize the Self Whom God created as the Son He loves and Who | remains my one Reality. |
| W2:283.1 | Let me not worship idols. I am He my Father loves. His holiness | remains the light of Heaven and the Love of God. Is not what is |
| W2:WIRW.2 | there. There are no cries of pain and sorrow heard, for nothing here | remains outside forgiveness. And the sights are gentle. Only happy |
| W2:293.1 | because its source is gone and all its thoughts gone with it. Love | remains the only present state, whose Source is here forever and |
| W2:WICR.4 | our doubts, past all our fears, there still is certainty. For Love | remains with all Its thought, Its sureness being theirs. God's memory |
| W2:322.2 | Father, to You all sacrifice | remains forever inconceivable. And so I cannot sacrifice except in |
| W2:323.2 | And we are at peace again, for fear has gone and only love | remains. |
| W2:336.1 | perception first is changed and then gives way entirely to what | remains forever past its highest reach. For sights and sounds at best |
| W2:336.2 | within and find Your promise of my sinlessness is kept; Your Word | remains unchanged within my mind; Your love is still abiding in my |
| M:4.13 | deceived in yourself? Judgment implies a lack of trust, and trust | remains the bed-rock of the teacher of God's whole thought system. |
| M:6.3 | the giver will not lose but only gain. Who gives a gift and then | remains with it to be sure it is used as the giver deems appropriate? |
| M:7.1 | itself. Healing cannot be repeated. If the patient is healed, what | remains to heal him from? And if the healing is certain, as we have |
| M:13.5 | there and each time disappointed in the end. “Seek but do not find,” | remains this world's stern decree, and no one who pursues the world's |
| M:14.2 | the benediction of holiness upon it. When not one thought of sin | remains, the world is over. It will not be destroyed nor attacked nor |
| M:16.3 | The saving of time is an essential early emphasis which, although it | remains important throughout the learning process, becomes less and |
| M:18.4 | and His laws alone prevail upon you and upon the world. His love | remains the only thing there is. Fear is illusion, for you are like |
| M:19.4 | separate fragments must decay and die, but wholeness is immortal. It | remains forever and forever like its Creator, being one with Him. |
| M:22.1 | are healed. Atonement is the Word of God. Accept His Word, and what | remains to make sickness possible? Accept His Word, and every miracle |
| M:24.6 | The emphasis of this course always | remains the same—it is at this moment that complete salvation is |
| M:28.3 | to Heaven and away from hell. All longings are satisfied, for what | remains unanswered or incomplete? The last illusion spreads over the |
| M:28.5 | and Love looks on Itself. What further sight is needed? What | remains that vision could accomplish? We have seen the face of |
| M:28.6 | not prepared as yet to welcome them with joy. As long as any mind | remains possessed of evil dreams, the thought of hell is real. God's |
| M:29.6 | of your heart and answers them. Does this mean that while attack | remains attractive to you, He will respond with evil? Hardly! For God |

| Tx:2.52 | Healing is not a miracle. The Atonement or the final miracle is a | remedy, while any type of healing is a result. The kind of error to |
| Tx:2.82 | steps in the larger process of accepting the Atonement as the | remedy. These steps can be summarized as follows: |
| Tx:2.85 | 3. The only | remedy for lack of love is perfect love. |
| Tx:2.87 | the situation for which the Atonement was offered. The need for the | remedy inspired its creation. As long as you recognize only the need |
| Tx:2.87 | its creation. As long as you recognize only the need for the | remedy, you will remain fearful. However, as soon as you remedy it, |
| Tx:2.87 | for the remedy, you will remain fearful. However, as soon as you | remedy it, you have also abolished the fear. This is how true healing |
| Tx:5.50 | past errors alone. They will not disappear from your mind without | remedy. The remedy is not of your making, any more than you are. The |
| Tx:5.50 | alone. They will not disappear from your mind without remedy. The | remedy is not of your making, any more than you are. The Atonement |
| Tx:5.64 | soon as you regard sin as a lack you will automatically attempt to | remedy the situation. And you will succeed. The ego regards this as |
| Tx:5.69 | is to save the past in purified form only. If you accept the | remedy for a thought disorder, and a remedy whose efficacy is beyond |
| Tx:5.69 | form only. If you accept the remedy for a thought disorder, and a | remedy whose efficacy is beyond doubt, how can its symptoms remain? |
| Tx:5.93 | the plan of salvation yourselves because, as I told you before, the | remedy is not of your making. God Himself gave you the perfect |
| Tx:11.16 | he cannot offer himself. Whatever the sickness, there is but one | remedy. You will be made whole as you make whole, for to perceive in |
| Tx:12.17 | and his healing, for the Holy Spirit's vision is merciful, and His | remedy is quick. Do not hide suffering from His sight, but bring it |
| Tx:19.7 | is. For God gave healing not apart from sickness, nor established | remedy where sickness cannot be. They are together, and when they are |
| Tx:20.74 | they are recognized for what they are. This is the healing and the | remedy. Believe them not, and they are gone. And all you need to do |
| Tx:25.3 | is a body is sick indeed! And it is here that Christ sets forth the | remedy. His purpose folds the body in His light and fills it with the |
| Tx:26.16 | What seemed once to be a special problem, a mistake without a | remedy, or an affliction without a cure has been transformed into a |
| W1:70.4 | God would not have put the | remedy for sickness where it cannot help. That is the way your mind |
| W1:136.21 | which will attack the body, for the mind is sick. Give instant | remedy should this occur by not allowing your defensiveness to hurt |
| W1:140.1 | Cure is a word that cannot be applied to any | remedy the world accepts as beneficial. What the world perceives as |
| W1:140.7 | then applied to what is sick so that it can be cured. There is no | remedy the world provides that can effect a change in anything. The |
| W1:162.5 | Who could despair when perfect joy is yours, available to all as | remedy for grief and misery, all sense of loss, and for complete |
| W2:WIM.1 | and love's awakening, for fear must slip away under the gentle | remedy it gives. |
| M:5.9 | come in benediction, not to heal the sick but to remind them of the | remedy God has already given them. It is not their hands that heal. |

| Tx:1.103 | are so frequent or occur so reliably that this implies validity. | Remember that while validity implies reliability, the relationship is |

| Tx:2.22 | miscreation. That is the way the mentally ill do employ it. But | remember a very early thought of your own—“Never underestimate the |
| Tx:2.61 | It is essential to | remember that only the mind can create. Implicit in this is the |
| Tx:2.80 | Remember that whenever there is fear, it is because you have not made | |
| Tx:2.105 | ways in which man can correct his magic-miracle confusion is to | remember that he did not create himself. He is apt to forget this |
| Tx:3.2 | we have already referred and which so many people hold. You will | remember that we said that awe is inappropriate in connection with |
| Tx:3.10 | order of reality. The latter involves a time awareness, since to | remember implies recalling the past in the present. Time is under my |
| Tx:3.51 | separation. No one has been sure of anything since. You will also | remember, however, that I made it clear that the resurrection was the |
| Tx:4.11 | the ego of this because it goes against all of its own laws. But | remember that laws are set up to protect the continuity of the system |
| Tx:4.21 | mind. The Soul is far beyond the need of your protection or mine. | Remember this: |
| Tx:4.29 | attitudes are ego-based. This will not last. Be patient awhile and | remember that the outcome is as certain as God. |
| Tx:4.54 | which therefore makes it profoundly afraid. In the ego's language, | remember, “to have” and “to be” are different, but they are identical |
| Tx:4.83 | The essential thing to | remember is that the ego does not recognize the real source of its |
| Tx:4.88 | from the ego by humbling it or controlling it or punishing it. | Remember that the ego and the Soul do not know each other. The |
| Tx:4.99 | creation gives everything, since it can create only like itself. | Remember that in being there is no difference between “having” and |
| Tx:5.5 | wholly joyous, your mind cannot have what it does not choose to be. | Remember that the Soul knows no difference between “being” and |
| Tx:5.22 | voice through another will. The Holy Spirit calls you both to | remember and to forget. You have chosen to be in a state of |
| Tx:5.29 | and to bring it back into the Oneness in which it was created. | Remember that “yoke” means “join together” and “burden” means |
| Tx:5.59 | to side with Heaven or earth, as it elects. But again, let us | remember that both are in you. In Heaven there is no guilt, because |
| Tx:5.66 | learned it. But again, your decision can be unmade as well as made. | Remember, though, that the alternatives are unalterable. |
| Tx:5.73 | does indeed know its power, because the mind does indeed know God. | Remember the Kingdom always, and remember that you who are part of |
| Tx:5.73 | the mind does indeed know God. Remember the Kingdom always, and | remember that you who are part of the Kingdom cannot be lost. The |
| Tx:5.76 | you. “Vengeance is mine, sayeth the Lord” is easily explained if you | remember that ideas increase only by being shared. This quotation |
| Tx:5.79 | a light into the world,” I surely came to share the light with you. | Remember the symbolic reference we made before to the ego's dark |
| Tx:5.79 | the symbolic reference we made before to the ego's dark glass, and | remember also that we said, “Do not look there.” It is still true |
| Tx:6.8 | free to perceive yourselves as persecuted if you choose. You might | remember, however, when you do choose to react that way, that I was |

| Tx:6.22 | of their devotion to me. Nevertheless, as you read their teachings, | remember that I told them myself that there was much they would |
| Tx:6.31 | yet it is your perception which the Holy Spirit guides. You might | remember that the human eye perceives parallel lines as if they meet |
| Tx:6.44 | you must have. It awakens in you through the conviction of teaching. | Remember that, if teaching is being and learning is being, [then] |
| Tx:6.45 | Remember that the Holy Spirit is the Answer, not the question. The | |
| Tx:6.52 | perfect must now be perfected. In fact, it is impossible. You must | remember, however, that when you put yourselves in an impossible |
| Tx:6.83 | What you must | remember, however, is that what the Holy Spirit rejects, the ego |
| Tx:6.94 | teaches like me. Vigilance was required of me as much as of you, but | remember that those who will to teach the same thing must be in |
| Tx:7.17 | is only to make the remembering consistent. You forget in order to | remember better. You will not understand His translations while you |
| Tx:7.35 | you learn of wholeness, and by learning of wholeness you learn to | remember God. You have forgotten Him, but the Holy Spirit still knows |
| Tx:7.38 | it, you are merely forgetting what you are not. This enables you to | remember what you are. |
| Tx:7.41 | fact, too, can be used either for healing or for magic, but you must | remember that magic is always the belief that healing is harmful. |
| Tx:7.70 | love it totally at times. You cannot be totally committed sometimes. | Remember a very early lesson—“Never underestimate the power of |

| Tx:8.91 | it must follow that you will not learn this course. Yet you might | remember that the reason for the course is that you do not know who |

| Tx:8.105 | Remember, then, that God's Will is already possible and nothing else | |
| Tx:8.107 | as “proof” that the course does not mean what it says. You must | remember, however, that the course does state, and repeatedly, that |
| Tx:8.111 | him say? Your decision about him determines the message you receive. | Remember that the Holy Spirit is in him, and His Voice speaks to you |
| Tx:9.9 | not, and you cannot know what you are, because you see him falsely. | Remember always that your identity is shared and that its sharing is |
| Tx:9.28 | for help and will speak to him through you if you do not interfere. | Remember that you are choosing a guide for helping, and the wrong |
| Tx:9.28 | a guide for helping, and the wrong choice will not help. But | remember also that the right one will. Trust Him, for help is His |
| Tx:9.34 | because you do not see. Because the Sonship must create as one, you | remember creation whenever you recognize part of creation. Each part |
| Tx:9.34 | creation whenever you recognize part of creation. Each part you | remember adds to your wholeness, because each part is whole. |
| Tx:9.37 | being “always.” This cannot mean anything to you, however, until you | remember God's open arms and finally know His open mind. Like Him, |
| Tx:9.47 | Remember this when the ego speaks, and you will not hear it. The | |
| Tx:9.52 | it from illusions and keeping yourself in the Mind of God. | Remember always that you cannot be anywhere except in the Mind of |

| Tx:9.66 | if you discovered that reality is in accord with neither? You do not | remember being awake. When you hear the Holy Spirit, you merely feel |
| Tx:9.66 | feel better because loving seems possible to you, but you do not | remember yet that it once was so. And it is in this remembering that |
| Tx:9.66 | Yet what has once been is so now if it is eternal. When you | remember, you will know what you remember is eternal and therefore is |
| Tx:9.66 | so now if it is eternal. When you remember, you will know what you | remember is eternal and therefore is now. |
| Tx:9.67 | You will | remember everything the instant you desire it wholly, for if to |
| Tx:9.69 | and the glory of creation. Offer the Holy Spirit only your will to | remember, for He retains the knowledge of God and of yourself for |
| Tx:9.69 | Voice will tell you that you are part of Him when you are willing to | remember Him and know your own reality again. Let nothing in this |
| Tx:9.70 | To | remember is merely to restore to your mind what is already there. You |
| Tx:9.70 | restore to your mind what is already there. You do not make what you | remember; you merely accept again what has been made but was |
| Tx:9.70 | Nothing is beyond His Will for you. But signify your will to | remember Him and behold! He will give you everything but for the |
| Tx:9.72 | not because He is gone, but because you are willing actively not to | remember Him.] |
| Tx:9.73 | and His Kingdom. And it is this vigilance that makes you afraid to | remember Him. |
| Tx:9.75 | there be for the sick Children of God except His power through you? | Remember that it does not matter where in the Sonship He is accepted. |
| Tx:9.77 | lose sight of yourself? Or would you remind him of his wholeness and | remember your Creator with him? To believe a Son of God is sick is to |
| Tx:9.81 | you made them to replace God. Yet when they seem to speak to you, | remember that nothing can replace God, and whatever replacements you |
| Tx:9.98 | therefore means that you love Him and that you know He loves you. | Remember that what you deny, you must have known. And if you accept |
| Tx:9.100 | you cannot die. But you can confuse yourself with things that do. | Remember, though, that to do this is blasphemy, for it means that you |
| Tx:9.107 | If you would | remember eternity, you must learn to look only on the eternal. If you |
| Tx:10.1 | opposed in all respects so that partial allegiance is impossible. | Remember, too, that their results are as different as their |
| Tx:10.3 | of God's creation is you, for His thought system is light. | Remember the rays that are there unseen. The more you approach the |
| Tx:10.15 | He shares His Will with you; He does not thrust it upon you. Always | remember that what He gives, He holds, so that nothing He gives can |
| Tx:10.21 | you will gladly extend it. And by this extending, you will begin to | remember creation. |
| Tx:10.23 | When you are weary, | remember you have hurt yourself. Your Comforter will rest you, but |
| Tx:10.28 | they have no place in His temple. When you are tempted to deny Him, | remember that there are no other gods that you can place before Him, |
| Tx:10.34 | realization, for it is truly the beginning of the dawn of light. | Remember also that the denial of this simple fact takes many forms, |
| Tx:10.57 | Would you | remember the Father? Accept His Son, and you will remember Him. |
| Tx:10.57 | Would you remember the Father? Accept His Son, and you will | remember Him. Nothing can demonstrate that His Son is unworthy, for |
| Tx:11.15 | withdraw that power, remembering that all power is of God. You can | remember this for all the Sonship. Do not allow your brother not to |
| Tx:11.15 | remember this for all the Sonship. Do not allow your brother not to | remember, for his forgetfulness is yours. But your remembering is |
| Tx:11.15 | of your brother as the healing of yourself is thus the way to | remember God. For you forgot your brothers with Him, and God's answer |
| Tx:11.15 | with Him, and God's answer to your forgetting is but the way to | remember. |
| Tx:11.17 | Remember what we said about the frightening perceptions of little | |
| Tx:11.19 | by God, and you must accomplish it because it is His Will. Awake and | remember your purpose, for it is your will to do so. What has been |
| Tx:11.26 | with this belief, and if you attack, you are reinforcing it. | Remember that those who attack are poor. Their poverty asks for |
| Tx:11.57 | God gave you Heaven. Through Him your Father calls His Son to | remember. The awakening of His Son begins with his investment in the |
| Tx:11.58 | When you have seen this real world, as you will surely do, you will | remember us. Yet you must learn the cost of sleeping and refuse to |
| Tx:11.66 | For He will send you His witnesses if you will but look upon them. | Remember always that you see what you seek, for what you seek you |
| Tx:11.74 | Remember, then, that whenever you look without and react unfavorably | |
| Tx:11.76 | When you are tempted to yield to the desire for death, | remember that I did not die. You will realize that this is true when |
| Tx:11.79 | You who knew have forgotten, and unless He had given you a way to | remember, you would have condemned yourselves to oblivion. |
| Tx:11.81 | You have but to ask for this memory, and you will | remember. Yet the memory of God cannot shine in a mind which has made |
| Tx:11.81 | it so. For the memory of God can dawn only in a mind that wills to | remember and that has relinquished the insane desire to control |
| Tx:11.84 | beholding it is total perception. And as you look upon it, you will | remember that it was always so. Nothingness will become invisible, |
| Tx:11.89 | for His Son, He wills to remove all guilt from his mind that he may | remember his Father in peace. For peace and guilt are antithetical, |
| Tx:12.9 | remain between you and the remembrance of your Father, for you will | remember His guiltless Son, who did not die because he is immortal. |
| Tx:12.26 | the past is the only aspect of time that is meaningful. You will | remember that we said its emphasis on guilt enables it to ensure its |
| Tx:12.45 | ask yourself if it is really sane to perceive what was now. If you | remember the past as you look upon your brother, you will be unable |
| Tx:12.53 | Shine on your brothers in remembrance of your Creator, for you will | remember Him as you call forth the witnesses to His creation. Those |
| Tx:12.72 | to undertake a foolish journey that would lead away from light, | remember what you really want and say, |
| Tx:12.76 | home. Give thanks to every part of you that you have taught how to | remember you. Thus does the Son of God give thanks unto his Father |
| Tx:13.16 | for all your brothers. For so you learn that it is true for you. | Remember always that it is impossible to condemn the Son of God in |
| Tx:13.27 | When he has looked within and seen the radiance there, he will | remember how much his Father loves him. And it will seem incredible |
| Tx:13.28 | You who have been unmerciful unto yourselves do not | remember your Father's Love. And looking without mercy upon your |
| Tx:13.28 | Love. And looking without mercy upon your brothers, you do not | remember how much you love Him. Yet it is forever true. In shining |
| Tx:13.38 | shared. It can also show you the results of sharing while you still | remember the results of not sharing. The Holy Spirit points quietly |
| Tx:13.39 | You whose minds are darkened by doubt and guilt, | remember this: God gave the Holy Spirit to you and gave Him the |
| Tx:13.40 | You will not | remember change and shift in Heaven. You have need of contrast only |
| Tx:13.46 | be perfectly accomplished. You will be released, and you will not | remember anything you made that was not created for you and by you in |
| Tx:13.46 | that was not created for you and by you in return. For how can you | remember what was never true or not remember what has always been? It |
| Tx:13.46 | you in return. For how can you remember what was never true or not | remember what has always been? It is this reconciliation with truth, |
| Tx:13.66 | is being in Heaven. Whenever the pain of guilt seems to attract you, | remember that, if you yield to it, you are deciding against your |
| Tx:13.72 | be. Do not attest to it, and do not foster belief in it in any mind. | Remember always that mind is one and cause is one. You will learn |
| Tx:13.90 | you out of Himself but still within Him. He knows what you are. | Remember that there is no second to Him. There cannot, therefore, be |
| Tx:13.91 | Before you make any decisions for yourself, | remember that you have decided against your function in Heaven and |
| Tx:14.3 | stand between you and what you know. His memory is yours. If you | remember what you have made, you are remembering nothing. Remembrance |
| Tx:14.13 | you to peace. Teach peace with me and stand with me on holy ground. | Remember for everyone your Father's power that He has given him. |
| Tx:14.38 | and interposed between what always was and now. The past which you | remember never was and represents only the denial of what always was. |
| Tx:14.55 | It is impossible to | remember God in secret and alone. For remembering Him means you are |
| Tx:14.55 | alone. For remembering Him means you are not alone and willing to | remember it. Take no thought for yourself, for no thought you hold is |
| Tx:14.55 | for yourself, for no thought you hold is for yourself. If you would | remember your Father, let the Holy Spirit order your thoughts and |
| Tx:14.71 | His lesson division disappears. Teach like Him here, and you will | remember that you have always created like your Father. The miracle |
| Tx:14.72 | Those who | remember always that they know nothing, but who have become willing |
| Tx:15.11 | instant in which you see yourself as bright with freedom, you will | remember God. For remembering Him is to remember freedom. |
| Tx:15.11 | with freedom, you will remember God. For remembering Him is to | remember freedom. |
| Tx:15.13 | For the instant of holiness is shared, and cannot be yours alone. | Remember, then, when you are tempted to attack a brother, that his |
| Tx:15.14 | love for everyone, for God, and for yourself. As long as it takes to | remember immortality and your immortal creations who share it with |
| Tx:15.24 | responsibility you owe yourself, and one which you must learn to | remember all the time. The lesson will seem hard at first, but you |
| Tx:15.24 | a tribute to your power. You who have sought and found littleness, | remember this: Every decision which you make stems from what you |
| Tx:15.31 | Remember that you learn not for yourself alone, no more than I did. | |
| Tx:15.33 | of God is host to Him. Thus will we let no one forget what you would | remember. And thus will you remember it. |
| Tx:15.33 | will we let no one forget what you would remember. And thus will you | remember it. |
| Tx:15.63 | understand Selfhood. And therein is love's meaning understood. But | remember that understanding is of the mind and only of the mind. |
| Tx:15.63 | language of communication, which you know perfectly, you will not | remember. |
| Tx:15.75 | Yet | remember this—to be with a body is not communication. And if you |
| Tx:15.79 | as clearly as He knows forgiveness is release, He will teach you to | remember that forgiveness is not loss but your salvation. And that in |
| Tx:15.90 | no idea of all the loveliness that you could see. But this you must | remember—the attraction of guilt opposes the attraction of God. His |
| Tx:15.109 | the remembrance of the Father enters with Him, and with Him they | remember the only relationship they ever had and ever want to have. |
| Tx:16.3 | Your part is only to | remember this—you do not want anything you value to come of the |
| Tx:16.12 | done to hurt your minds has made them so unnatural that they do not | remember what is natural to them. And when you are told about it, you |
| Tx:16.17 | sufficient miracle to teach you that your Teacher is not of you? But | remember also that whenever you have listened to His interpretation, |
| Tx:16.22 | faith in what you have so diligently taught yourself to believe? Yet | remember how much care you have exerted in choosing its witnesses and |
| Tx:16.40 | link with you lie both His inability to forget and your ability to | remember. In Him are joined your willingness to love and all the love |
| Tx:16.41 | Your Father can no more forget the truth in you than you can fail to | remember it. The Holy Spirit is the bridge to Him, made from your |
| Tx:16.54 | form of special relationship tempts you to seek for love in ritual, | remember love is content and not form of any kind. The special |
| Tx:16.56 | make the simple choice between truth and illusion, God and fantasy. | Remember this and you will have no difficulty in perceiving the |
| Tx:16.79 | Remember that you always choose between truth and illusion—between | |
| Tx:16.81 | is perfect? The sleep of forgetfulness is only the unwillingness to | remember Your forgiveness and Your Love. Let us not wander into |
| Tx:17.7 | will you value like unto this nor hold so dear. Nothing that you | remember that made your heart seem to sing with joy has ever brought |
| Tx:17.14 | To forgive is merely to | remember only the loving thoughts you gave in the past and those that |
| Tx:17.25 | to you to choose to be willing to join with truth or illusion. But | remember that to choose one is to let the other go. Which one you |
| Tx:17.38 | only that you compare, or the comparison is wholly without meaning. | Remember that it is the picture that is the gift. And only on this |
| Tx:17.51 | way. Your way is lost, but think not this is loss. In your newness, | remember that you have started again together. And take each other's |
| Tx:17.51 | more familiar than you now believe. Is it not certain that you will | remember a goal unchanged throughout eternity? For you have chosen |
| Tx:17.57 | certain very specific guidelines He provides for any situation, but | remember that you do not yet realize their universal application. |
| Tx:17.67 | Only what you have not given can be lacking in any situation. But | remember this: the goal of holiness was set for your relationship and |
| Tx:18.27 | established in Heaven. You do not understand what you accepted, but | remember that your understanding is not necessary. All that was |
| Tx:18.38 | Add more and you will merely take away the little that is asked. | Remember you made guilt and that your plan for the escape from guilt |
| Tx:18.47 | Whichever is saner at the time when the threat is perceived should | remember how deep is his indebtedness to the other and how much |
| Tx:18.47 | glad that he can pay his debt by bringing happiness to both. Let him | remember this, and say: |
| Tx:18.67 | the universe to both of you. You are prepared. Now you need but to | remember you need do nothing. It would be far more profitable now |
| Tx:18.95 | us to try to speak of what must forever lie beyond words. We need | remember only that whoever attains the real world, beyond which |
| Tx:18.98 | of God has come to you in the holy place of forgiveness, you will | remember nothing else, and memory will be as useless as learning, for |
| Tx:19.31 | When you are tempted to believe that sin is real, | remember this: If sin is real, both God and you are not. If creation |
| Tx:19.65 | Son of God committed. And in the light of your forgiveness, he will | remember who he is and forget what never was. I ask for your |
| Tx:19.88 | makes your body tremble and the cold sweat of fear comes over it, | remember it is always for one reason—the ego has perceived it as a |
| Tx:19.88 | ego has perceived it as a symbol of fear, a sign of sin and death. | Remember then that neither sign nor symbol should be confused with |
| Tx:19.88 | Confronted with such seeming uncertainty of meaning, judge it not. | Remember the holy Presence of the One given to you to be the Source |
| Tx:19.90 | think if death held no attraction for you? Very simply, you would | remember your Father. The Creator of life, the Source of everything |
| Tx:19.90 | of universes and of everything that lies even beyond them would you | remember. And as this memory rises in your mind, peace must still |
| Tx:19.95 | your “protectors,” and your “home” will vanish. Nothing that you | remember now will you remember. |
| Tx:19.95 | and your “home” will vanish. Nothing that you remember now will you | remember. |
| Tx:20.5 | eyes to see. Think on the many offerings made for its pleasure and | remember all these were made to make seem lovely what you hate. Would |
| Tx:20.25 | weak and exhausted and with eyes so long cast down in darkness they | remember not the light, do not leap up in joy the instant they are |
| Tx:20.33 | fear, and where he rests a while to forget imprisonment and to | remember freedom. How can he enter, to rest and to remember, without |
| Tx:20.33 | and to remember freedom. How can he enter, to rest and to | remember, without you? Except you be there, he is not complete. And |
| Tx:20.34 | rest. And as they rest, the face of Christ shines on them, and they | remember the laws of God, forgetting all the rest and yearning only |
| Tx:20.38 | the gifts you give, and through your not forgetting this will you | remember Who gave the gifts to Him to give to you. |
| Tx:20.60 | it is because the purpose frightens you, and not the means. | Remember this, for otherwise you will make the error of believing the |
| Tx:20.60 | perfectly in line with it. Before we look at them a little closer, | remember that if you think they are impossible, your wanting of the |
| Tx:21.7 | is to save the little that they have. Listen and try to think if you | remember what we will speak of now. |
| Tx:21.8 | attached not to a person or a place or anything particular. But you | remember from just this little part how lovely was the song, how |
| Tx:21.9 | make you weep if you remembered how dear it was to you. You could | remember, yet you are afraid, believing you would lose the world you |
| Tx:21.9 | the world you learned is half so dear as this. Listen and see if you | remember an ancient song you knew so long ago and held more dear than |
| Tx:21.42 | Remember that the ego is not alone. Its rule is tempered, and its | |
| Tx:21.48 | Look gently on each other and | remember the ego's weakness is revealed in both your sight. What it |
| Tx:21.71 | each one as likely to attack his brother or turn upon himself as to | remember they thought they had a common cause. |
| Tx:22.56 | to you. The light you bring you do not recognize, and yet you will | remember. Who can deny himself the vision that he brings to others? |
| Tx:22.62 | this oneness, you would know His power is yours. But you will not | remember this while you believe attack of any kind means anything. It |
| Tx:23.7 | means of war are not the means of peace, and what the warlike would | remember is not love. War is impossible unless belief in victory is |
| Tx:23.13 | What you | remember is a part of you. For you must be as God created you. Truth |
| Tx:23.13 | But truth is indivisible and far beyond their little reach. You will | remember what you know when you have learned you cannot be in |
| Tx:23.16 | as limitless as its Creator, and everything is given those who would | remember Him. Over His home the Holy Spirit watches, sure that its |
| Tx:23.52 | temptation to attack rises to make your mind darkened and murderous, | remember you can see the battle from above. Even in forms you do not |
| Tx:24.8 | What you keep is lost to you. God gave you both Himself, and to | remember this is now the only purpose that you share. And so it is |
| Tx:24.18 | have chained your savior to your specialness and given it his place, | remember this: He has not lost the power to forgive you all the sins |
| Tx:25.59 | alternative He chose especially for you. It is God's Will that you | remember this and so emerge from deepest mourning into perfect joy. |
| Tx:25.62 | Remember all temptation is but this—a mad belief that God's | |
| Tx:25.64 | from all beliefs opposed to it. You have no fixed allegiance. But | remember salvation is not needed by the saved. You are not called |
| Tx:26.14 | some mistakes to be corrected while you keep the others to yourself, | remember this: justice is total. There is no such thing as partial |
| Tx:27.81 | be laughed away. How serious they now appear to be! And no one can | remember when they would have met with laughter and with disbelief. |
| Tx:27.82 | We can | remember this if we but look directly at their cause. And we will see |
| Tx:28.4 | is past that it is hard for you to realize it is a skill that can | remember now. The limitations on remembering the world imposes on it |
| Tx:28.7 | Remember nothing that you taught yourself, for you were badly taught. | |
| Tx:28.7 | and can preserve a better one? When ancient memories of hate appear, | remember that their cause is gone. And so you cannot understand what |
| Tx:28.9 | What you | remember never was. It came from causelessness which you confused |
| Tx:28.49 | Remember if you share an evil dream, you will believe you are the | |
| Tx:29.20 | his reality. But he must learn he is a savior first, before he can | remember what he is. And he must save who would be saved. On saving |
| Tx:30.11 | 3. | Remember once again the day you want and recognize that something has |
| Tx:30.35 | lies in you has joined with God Himself in all creation's birth. | Remember He Who has created you and through your will created |
| Tx:30.44 | before the time when you forgot and will be just the same when you | remember. And it is the same within the interval when you forgot. |
| Tx:30.60 | not idolatry. And so is Heaven's Son prepared to be himself, and to | remember that the Son of God knows everything his Father understands |
| Tx:31.12 | which we hold of what things mean and what their purpose is. Let us | remember not our own ideas of what the world is for. We do not know. |
| Tx:31.72 | this happy change occur. No more than this is asked. On its behalf, | remember what the concept of yourself which now you hold has brought |
| W1:I.5 | use which will give them meaning to you and show you they are true. | Remember only this—you need not believe them, you need not accept |
| W1:7.12 | Do not linger over any one thing in particular, but | remember to omit nothing specifically. Glance briefly at each |
| W1:10.8 | reduced to half a minute or even less if you experience discomfort. | Remember, however, to repeat the idea slowly before applying it |
| W1:12.5 | why these “nice” adjectives belong in these exercises, but | remember that a “good world” implies a “bad” one, and a “satisfying |
| W1:20.5 | not be distressed if you forget to do so, but make a real effort to | remember. The extra repetitions should be applied to any situation, |
| W1:21.3 | the “little” thoughts of anger escape you in the practice periods. | Remember that you do not really recognize what arouses anger in you, |
| W1:27.7 | The real question is how often will you | remember? How much do you want today's idea to be true? Answer one of |
| W1:29.4 | in connection with today's idea because of its wholly alien nature. | Remember that any order you impose is equally alien to reality. |
| W1:33.5 | Remember to apply today's idea the instant you are aware of distress. | |
| W1:40.1 | try again. If there are long interruptions, try again. Whenever you | remember, try again. |
| W1:42.8 | Remember, though, that active searching for relevant thoughts is not | |
| W1:43.12 | during the day. When you are with someone else, for example, try to | remember to tell him silently, |
| W1:45.5 | God would have us do is what we want to do. And we will also try to | remember that we cannot fail in doing what He would have us do. There |
| W1:45.12 | In using the shorter form for applying today's idea, try to | remember how important it is to you to understand the holiness of the |
| W1:47.9 | the idea for today often. Use it as your answer to any disturbance. | Remember that peace is your right because you are giving your trust |
| W1:52.4 | is preoccupied with the past. What, then, can I see as it is? Let me | remember that I look on the past to prevent the present from dawning |
| W1:53.5 | insane thoughts when the perfection of creation is my home? Let me | remember the power of my decision and recognize where I really abide. |
| W1:56.3 | to the fearful nature of the self-image I have made. If I would | remember who I am, it is essential that I let this image of myself |
| W1:60.3 | because I feel the stirring of His strength in me. And I begin to | remember the love I chose to forget, but Which has not forgotten me. |
| W1:60.6 | And as I look upon the world with the vision He has given me, I | remember that I am His Son. |
| W1:62.2 | by attacking creation and its Creator. Now you are learning how to | remember the truth. For this, attack must be replaced by forgiveness |
| W1:62.3 | Remember that in every attack you call upon your own weakness, while | |
| W1:62.9 | I would | remember this because I want to be happy. |
| W1:63.3 | Recognizing the importance of this function, we will be happy to | remember it very often today. We will begin the day by acknowledging |
| W1:63.6 | Remember that God's Son looks to you for his salvation. And who but | |
| W1:64.5 | function, you are really choosing whether to be happy or not. Let us | remember this today. Let us remind ourselves of it in the morning and |
| W1:64.9 | this with closed eyes. Related thoughts will come to help you if you | remember the crucial importance of your function to you and to the |
| W1:66.12 | We need great honesty today. | Remember the outcomes fairly and consider also whether it was ever |
| W1:68.4 | forget who they are as it is certain that those who forgive will | remember. Would you not be willing to relinquish your grievances if |
| W1:68.8 | I would see you as my friend that I may | remember you are part of me and come to know myself. |
| W1:69.8 | clouds to the light, to hold this confidence in your mind. Try to | remember that you are at last joining your will to God's. Try to keep |
| W1:70.12 | it. It is not there. It is past the clouds and in the light beyond. | Remember that you will have to go through the clouds before you can |
| W1:70.12 | have to go through the clouds before you can reach the light. But | remember also that you have never found anything in the cloud |
| W1:71.15 | Try to | remember the idea for today some six or seven times an hour. There |
| W1:71.15 | There could be no better way to spend a half-minute or less than to | remember the Source of your salvation and to see it where it is. |
| W1:73.8 | We will succeed today if you | remember that you will salvation for yourself. You will to accept |
| W1:73.8 | do so. Salvation is for you. Above all else you want the freedom to | remember who you really are. |
| W1:73.9 | certain that we will find what it is your will to find and | remember what it is your will to remember. No idle wishes can detain |
| W1:73.9 | what it is your will to find and remember what it is your will to | remember. No idle wishes can detain us nor deceive us with an |
| W1:77.10 | Remember, too, not to be satisfied with less than the perfect answer. | |
| W1:78.12 | We will | remember this throughout the day and take the role assigned to us as |
| W1:78.12 | our grievances. To everyone you meet and to the ones you think of or | remember from the past, allow the role of savior to be given that you |
| W1:80.3 | are the same. Their many forms will not deceive you while you | remember this. One problem—one solution. Accept the peace this |
| W1:80.5 | that you are out of conflict, free, and at peace. Above all, | remember that you have one problem and that the problem has one |
| W1:80.6 | conviction as frequently as possible. And be particularly sure to | remember to apply the idea for today to any specific problem that may |
| W1:R2.3 | is a message waiting for you. Be confident that you will receive it. | Remember that it belongs to you and that you want it. Do not allow |
| W1:81.2 | its calm light, let all my conflicts disappear. In its peace, let me | remember who I am. |
| W1:82.5 | forget my function. I would not forget my function because I would | remember my Self. I cannot fulfill my function by forgetting. And |
| W1:84.4 | me not see an illusion of myself in this. As I look on this, let me | remember my Creator. My Creator did not create this as I see it. |
| W1:84.5 | to me. I am determined not to attack my Self today, so that I can | remember who I am. |
| W1:90.2 | a miracle with which I let the grievance be replaced. Today I would | remember the simplicity of salvation by reinforcing the lesson that |
| W1:91.1 | It is important to | remember that miracles and vision necessarily go together. This needs |
| W1:91.12 | yourself. Concentrate particularly on the experience of strength. | Remember that all sense of weakness is associated with the belief |
| W1:93.12 | for these exercises. Try, however, to do so when you can. At least | remember to repeat these thoughts each hour: |
| W1:95.5 | tend to forget about it for long periods of time. You often fail to | remember the short applications of the idea for the day, and you have |
| W1:99.16 | forever from your mind. If you are tempted to believe them true, | remember that appearances cannot withstand the truth these mighty |
| W1:101.10 | to go still faster to the waiting goal of peace. There is no sin. | Remember this today, and tell yourself as often as you can: |
| W1:105.11 | think that less is worthless when you cannot give Him more. At least | remember hourly to say the words which call on Him to give you what |
| W1:107.2 | what a state of mind without illusions is? How it would feel? Try to | remember when there was a time—perhaps a minute, maybe even less— |
| W1:109.7 | flow again. The world is born again each time you rest, and hourly | remember that you came to bring the peace of God into the world that |
| W1:110.11 | We will | remember Him throughout the day with thankful hearts and loving |
| W1:110.11 | thoughts for all who meet with us today, for it is thus that we | remember Him. And we will say, that we may be reminded of His Son, |
| W1:117.2 | [103] God, being Love, is also happiness. Let me | remember love is happiness and nothing else brings joy. And so I |
| W1:122.8 | truths, forever newly born, arise in your awareness. What you will | remember then can never be described. Yet your forgiveness offers it |
| W1:123.8 | and limitless His care for you, how perfect is His gratitude to you. | Remember hourly to think of Him and give Him thanks for everything He |
| W1:124.10 | find it there within your mind and waiting to be found. You will | remember then the thought to which you gave this half an hour, |
| W1:124.13 | Let me | remember I am one with God, at one with all my brothers and my Self, |
| W1:127.11 | We will | remember them throughout the day because we cannot leave a part of us |
| W1:129.11 | its opposite at last, and we are grateful that the choice is made. | Remember your decision hourly, and take a moment to confirm your |
| W1:131.17 | Today God keeps His ancient promise to His holy Son, as does His Son | remember his to Him. This is a day of gladness, for we come to the |
| W1:131.18 | Remember often that today should be a time of special gladness, and | |
| W1:134.21 | In everything you do, | remember this: |
| W1:135.27 | He has remembered you. Today we will | remember Him. For this is Eastertime in your salvation. And you rise |
| W1:137.13 | We will | remember, as the hour strikes, our function is to let our minds be |
| W1:139.12 | knowledge that God gave to us when He created us like Him. We can | remember it for everyone, for in creation are all minds as one and in |
| W1:140.14 | healing comes to us. This is the day when separation ends and we | remember Who we really are. |
| W1:142.2 | [124] Let me | remember I am one with God. |
| W1:151.17 | And we will hourly | remember Him Who is salvation and deliverance. As we give thanks the |
| W1:153.6 | a silly game a tired child might play when he becomes too sleepy to | remember what he wants. |
| W1:153.16 | Each hour adds to our increasing peace, as we | remember to be faithful to the will we share with God. At times, |
| W1:153.19 | We rise up strong in Christ and let our weakness disappear as we | remember that His strength abides in us. We will remind ourselves |
| W1:158.10 | looks on you as well. This lesson is not difficult to learn if you | remember in your brother you but see yourself. If he be lost in sin, |
| W1:159.7 | Here does the world | remember what was lost when it was made. For here it is repaired, |
| W1:160.9 | they do not recognize themselves. Yet as they give Him welcome, they | remember. And He leads them gently home again where they belong. |
| W1:160.10 | Not one does He forget. Not one He fails to give you to | remember that your home may be complete and perfect as it was |
| W1:160.10 | as it was established. He has not forgotten you. But you will not | remember Him until you look on all as He does. Who denies his brother |
| W1:161.11 | What you will see will sing to you of ancient melodies you will | remember. You are not forgot in Heaven. Would you not remember it? |
| W1:161.11 | you will remember. You are not forgot in Heaven. Would you not | remember it? |
| W1:164.4 | in you the thought of sin has never touched. All this today you will | remember. Faithfulness in practicing today will bring rewards so |
| W1:170.10 | Yet do not think that fear is the escape from fear. Let us | remember what the course has stressed about the obstacles to peace. |
| W1:R5.7 | we are approaching. Let us raise our hearts from dust to life as we | remember This is promised us, and that this course was sent to open |
| W1:183.2 | response, nor said without an echo in the mind which calls you to | remember. Say His Name, and you invite the angels to surround the |
| W1:183.10 | of the world and give the world the same release you found. You can | remember what the world forgot and offer it your own remembering. You |
| W1:186.12 | Voice directs. And if it asks a thing of you that seems impossible, | remember Who it is that asks and who would make denial. Then consider |
| W1:186.12 | given you by your Creator, Who remembers you and urges that you now | remember Him. |
| W1:191.13 | accept your own eternal life. You are the holy Son of God Himself. | Remember this and all the world is free. Remember this and earth and |
| W1:191.13 | holy Son of God Himself. Remember this and all the world is free. | Remember this and earth and Heaven are one. |
| W1:193.12 | suffer thus. He would help you forgive yourself. His Son does not | remember who he is. And God would have him not forget His Love and |
| W1:R6.5 | ends with this. And we repeat it every time the hour strikes or we | remember in between we have a function that transcends the world we |
| W2:231.1 | there is nothing else that I could ever really want to find. Let me | remember You. What else could I desire but the truth about myself? |
| W2:231.2 | this will with me, and with the One as well Who is our Father. To | remember Him is Heaven. This we seek. And only this is what it will |
| W2:235.1 | happiness to find that only happiness has come to me. And I need but | remember that His Love surrounds His Son and keeps his sinlessness |
| W2:241.2 | his home. How glad are we to have our sanity restored to us, and to | remember that we all are one. |
| W2:254.2 | God speaks to us and tells us of our will, as we have chosen to | remember Him. |
| W2:257.1 | distress and great depression. Let us therefore be determined to | remember what we want today that we may unify our thoughts and |
| W2:258.1 | is to train our minds to overlook all little, senseless aims and to | remember that our goal is God. His memory is hidden in our minds, |
| W2:258.1 | instead? God is our only goal, our only Love. We have no aim but to | remember Him. |
| W2:258.2 | leads to You. We have no goal but this. What could we want but to | remember You? What could we seek but our Identity? |
| W2:260.1 | of What created me. Your Son, my Father, calls on You today. Let me | remember You created me. Let me remember my Identity. And let my |
| W2:260.1 | Father, calls on You today. Let me remember You created me. Let me | remember my Identity. And let my sinlessness arise again before |
| W2:261.1 | is my Identity. In Him is everlasting peace. And only there will I | remember who I really am. |
| W2:265.2 | the world, which but reflects Your thoughts and mine as well. Let me | remember that they are the same, and I will see creation's gentleness. |
| W2:276.1 | but to acknowledge Him Who gave His Word to us in our creation, to | remember Him and so recall our Self. |
| W2:288.1 | You have given me. But let me honor him who bears Your Name and so | remember that It is my own. |
| W2:310.1 | from Heaven to Your Son. This day will be Your sweet reminder to | remember You, Your gracious calling to Your holy Son, the sign Your |
| W2:342.1 | and let creation be as You would have it be and as it is. Let me | remember that I am Your Son, and opening the door at last, forget |
| W2:345.1 | born of true forgiveness, lights the way that I must travel to | remember You. |
| W2:346.2 | And when the evening comes today, we will | remember nothing but the peace of God. For we will learn today what |
| W2:348.1 | Father, let me | remember You are here, and I am not alone. Surrounding me is |
| W2:350.2 | we gather miracles from Him, we will indeed be grateful. For as we | remember Him, His Son will be restored to us in the Reality of Love. |
| W2:358.1 | You Who | remember what I really am alone remember what I really want. You |
| W2:358.1 | You Who remember what I really am alone | remember what I really want. You speak for God, and so You speak for |
| W2:358.1 | You offer me, in just the form You chose that it be mine. Let me | remember all I do not know, and let my voice be still, remembering. |
| W2:FL.4 | It is our function to | remember Him on earth, as it is given us to be His own completion in |
| M:7.3 | do. By accepting healing, he can give it. If he doubts this, let him | remember Who gave the gift and Who received it. Thus is his doubt |
| M:9.1 | This may or may not involve changes in the external situation. | Remember that no one is where he is by accident, and chance plays no |
| M:10.4 | Remember how many times you thought you knew all the “facts” you | |
| M:13.8 | Teacher of God, do not forget the meaning of sacrifice, and | remember what each decision you make must mean in terms of cost. |
| M:13.8 | at the expense of the awareness of everything. What would you teach? | Remember only what you would learn. For it is here that your concern |
| M:15.4 | in honesty. There is no deceit in God. His promises are sure. Only | remember that. His promises have guaranteed that His judgment, and |
| M:16.4 | which fosters quiet thought as he awakes. If this is so, let him but | remember that he chooses to spend time with God as soon as possible, |
| M:16.10 | he is safe from all deception if he so decides. Perhaps he needs to | remember “God is with me. I cannot be deceived.” Perhaps he prefers |
| M:17.1 | for depression, pain, fear, and disaster to come to him. Let him | remember, then, it is not this that he would teach, because it is not |
| M:17.4 | Perhaps it will be helpful to | remember that no one can be angry at a fact. It is always an |
| M:17.6 | Forget the battle. Accept it as a fact, and then forget it. Do not | remember the impossible odds against you. Do not remember the |
| M:17.6 | forget it. Do not remember the impossible odds against you. Do not | remember the immensity of the “enemy,” and do not think about your |

| M:19.5 | Perception can make whatever picture the mind desires to see. | Remember this. In this lies either Heaven or hell, as you elect. |
| M:20.4 | that you have picked it up again. But you will learn, as you | remember even faintly now what happiness was yours without it, that |
| M:20.6 | God's peace is the condition for His Will. Attain His peace, and you | remember Him. |
| M:23.3 | success. Is he still available for help? What did he say about this? | Remember his promises, and ask yourself honestly whether it is likely |
| M:29.5 | will be given you when you need it. Prepare for this each morning, | remember God when you can throughout the day, ask the Holy Spirit's |

| Tx:7.17 | unless it is remembered. That is why the Holy Spirit is a lesson in | remembering. We said before that He teaches remembering and |
| Tx:7.17 | Spirit is a lesson in remembering. We said before that He teaches | remembering and forgetting, but the forgetting aspect is only to make |
| Tx:7.17 | and forgetting, but the forgetting aspect is only to make the | remembering consistent. You forget in order to remember better. You |
| Tx:7.34 | this, and the Holy Spirit reminds you of it. When you heal, you are | remembering the laws of God and forgetting the laws of the ego. We |
| Tx:7.34 | laws of the ego. We said before that forgetting is merely a way of | remembering better. It is therefore not the opposite of remembering, |
| Tx:7.34 | a way of remembering better. It is therefore not the opposite of | remembering, when it is properly perceived. Perceived improperly, it |
| Tx:7.35 | still knows that your forgetting must be translated into a way of | remembering and not perceived as a separate ability which opposes an |
| Tx:9.66 | but you do not remember yet that it once was so. And it is in this | remembering that you will know it can be so again. What is possible |
| Tx:9.69 | Give up gladly everything that would stand in the way of your | remembering, for God is in your memory, and His Voice will tell you |
| Tx:9.69 | know your own reality again. Let nothing in this world delay your | remembering of Him, for in this remembering is the knowledge of |

| Tx:9.72 | you are. And if your reality is God's, when you attack you are not | remembering Him. This is not because He is gone, but because you are |
| Tx:10.32 | of God. Therefore, look only to the power that God gave to save you, | remembering that it is yours because it is His, and join with your |
| Tx:11.15 | Son of God gave power to it. He must himself withdraw that power, | remembering that all power is of God. You can remember this for all |
| Tx:11.15 | brother not to remember, for his forgetfulness is yours. But your | remembering is his, for God cannot be remembered alone. This is what |

| Tx:14.3 | His memory is yours. If you remember what you have made, you are | remembering nothing. Remembrance of reality is in Him and therefore |
| Tx:14.55 | It is impossible to remember God in secret and alone. For | remembering Him means you are not alone and willing to remember it. |
| Tx:15.11 | you see yourself as bright with freedom, you will remember God. For | remembering Him is to remember freedom. |
| Tx:15.32 | You will be content with nothing but His Will. Accept no less, | remembering that everything I learned is yours. What my Father loves, |
| Tx:17.14 | you. All the rest must be forgotten. Forgiveness is a selective | remembering, based not on your selection. For the shadow figures you |
| Tx:19.65 | me. Would you see in me the symbol of guilt or of the end of guilt, | remembering that what I signify to you, you see within yourself? |
| Tx:19.95 | before what you swore never to look upon. Your eyes look down, | remembering your promise to your “friends.” The “loveliness” of sin, |
| Tx:19.102 | Is this giver of salvation your friend or enemy? Choose which he is, | remembering that you will receive of him according to your choice. He |
| Tx:20.43 | This gift returns the laws of God to your remembrance. And merely by | remembering them, the laws that held you prisoner to pain and death |
| Tx:21.12 | of this song. And they will look upon the vision of the Son of God, | remembering who he is they sing of. What is a miracle but this |
| Tx:21.12 | God, remembering who he is they sing of. What is a miracle but this | remembering? And who is there in whom this memory lies not? The light |
| Tx:21.12 | in one awakens it in all. And when you see it in each other, you are | remembering for everyone. |
| Tx:24.22 | Give him but what he has, | remembering God gave Himself to both of you in equal love that both |
| Tx:25.41 | —that you allow him freedom to complete the task God gave to him. | Remembering but this—that what he does you do along with him. And |

| Tx:28.2 | would you cling to it in memory if you did not desire its effects? | Remembering is as selective as perception, being its past tense. It |
| Tx:28.4 | to realize it is a skill that can remember now. The limitations on | remembering the world imposes on it are as vast as those you let the |
| Tx:28.10 | be condemned for what was causeless and against His Will. What your | remembering would witness to is but the fear of God. He has not done |
| Tx:28.11 | stillness when the memory of God returns to them. Their own | remembering is quiet now, and what has come to take its place will |
| Tx:28.13 | arises in the mind that has no fear to keep the memory away. Its own | remembering has gone. There is no past to keep its fearful image in |
| Tx:28.13 | gentle sounds of love the Son of God remembers from before his own | remembering came in between the present and the past to shut them out. |
| Tx:29.70 | judgment from what judgment must impose. And all the while he is | remembering what he forgot when judgment seemed to be the way to save |
| Tx:30.45 | and shine forever. They await not birth. They wait for welcome and | remembering. The Thought God holds of you is like a star, |
| Tx:30.68 | unto your brother, then. And do not choose an idol thoughtlessly, | remembering that he will pay the cost as well as you. For he will be |
| Tx:31.20 | an instant and be still, forgetting everything we thought we heard; | remembering how much we do not know. This brother neither leads nor |
| Tx:31.81 | Be vigilant against temptation, then, | remembering that it is but a wish, insane and meaningless, to make |
| Tx:31.92 | salvation and release. Choose once again what you would have him be, | remembering that every choice you make establishes your own identity |
| W1:9.3 | about you and applying the idea for the day to whatever you see, | remembering the need for its indiscriminate application and the |
| W1:41.9 | You can indeed afford to laugh at fear thoughts, | remembering that God goes with you wherever you go. |
| W1:43.18 | Try today not to allow long periods of time to slip by without | remembering today's idea and thus remembering your function. |
| W1:43.18 | periods of time to slip by without remembering today's idea and thus | remembering your function. |
| W1:60.3 | which I forgive. It is through the strength of God in me, which I am | remembering as I forgive. As I begin to see, I recognize His |
| W1:64.6 | yourself in advance for all the decisions you will make today by | remembering that they are really very simple. Each one will lead to |
| W1:69.6 | for yourself and the world, try to settle down in perfect stillness, | remembering only how much you want to reach the light in you today— |
| W1:71.10 | Remembering this, let us devote the remainder of the extended | |
| W1:72.15 | success flicker and go out, repeat your question and your request, | remembering that you are asking them of the infinite Creator of |
| W1:122.9 | Remembering the gifts forgiveness gives, we undertake our practicing | |
| W1:123.8 | for everything He gave His Son that he might rise above the world | remembering his Father and his Self. |
| W1:130.11 | Dismiss temptation easily today whenever it arises merely by | remembering the limits on your choice. The unreal or the real, the |
| W1:136.5 | the decision which is doubly shielded by oblivion. Your not | remembering is but the sign that this decision still remains in force |
| W1:137.16 | we let this function be forgot as every hour of the day slips by, | remembering our function with this thought: |

| Tx:4.9 | but I do try to teach you how their thought system[s] arose. When I | remind you of your true creation, your egos cannot but respond with |
| Tx:4.73 | clearly and kept in mind. As a teacher with some experience, let me | remind you that learning and wanting to learn are inseparable. All |
| Tx:5.29 | teaching you. When you are tempted by the wrong voice, call on me to | remind you how to heal by sharing my decision and making it stronger. |

| Tx:8.94 | you ask the sacrifice of reality of yourselves, the Holy Spirit must | remind you that this is not God's Will because it is not yours. There |
| Tx:9.77 | his denial of God and thus lose sight of yourself? Or would you | remind him of his wholeness and remember your Creator with him? To |
| Tx:10.25 | will be like, for your hearts are not ready. Yet I can tell you and | remind you often that what God wills for Himself He wills for you, |
| Tx:11.54 | He cannot let you forget your worth. For the Father never ceases to | remind Him of His Son, and He never ceases to remind His Son of the |
| Tx:11.54 | Father never ceases to remind Him of His Son, and He never ceases to | remind His Son of the Father. God is in your memory because of Him. |

| Tx:16.77 | as he was created. And everything the Holy Spirit teaches you is to | remind you that you have received what God has given you. |
| Tx:17.50 | no purpose. A sense of aimlessness will come to haunt you and to | remind you of all the ways you once sought for satisfaction and |
| Tx:18.25 | then join quickly in an instant of light, and it will be enough to | remind you that your goal is light. Truth has rushed to meet you |
| Tx:18.97 | united is but the messenger of love, sent from beyond forgiveness to | remind you of all that lies beyond it. Yet it is through forgiveness |
| Tx:21.6 | learned through pain. And everything they think is in it serves to | remind them that they are incomplete and bitterly deprived. |
| Tx:27.49 | perfectly been learned. And then when you forget it will the world | remind you gently of what you have taught. No reinforcement will its |
| Tx:28.9 | past nor await the future. It is not revealed in miracles. They but | remind you that It has not gone. When you forgive It for your sins, |
| Tx:29.51 | death is nothing lost. An idol cannot take the place of God. Let Him | remind you of His love for you, and do not seek to drown His Voice in |
| Tx:29.70 | Forgiving dreams | remind you that you live in safety and have not attacked yourself. So |
| W1:6.4 | applying the idea to some upsetting thoughts more than to others, | remind yourself of the two cautions stated in the previous lesson: |
| W1:13.8 | this concluding statement. Whatever form such resistance may take, | remind yourself that you are really afraid of such a thought because |
| W1:31.4 | repeat the idea for today as often as possible during the day. | Remind yourself that you are making a declaration of independence in |
| W1:44.6 | opposition and fears are meaningless. You might find it helpful to | remind yourself from time to time that to reach light is to escape |
| W1:45.11 | little understanding you have already gained, you should be able to | remind yourself that this is no idle game but an exercise in holiness |
| W1:64.5 | whether to be happy or not. Let us remember this today. Let us | remind ourselves of it in the morning and again at night and all |
| W1:67.7 | times an hour, and perhaps even more, it would be most beneficial to | remind yourself that Love created you like Itself. Hear the truth |
| W1:69.9 | in view of the importance of today's idea to you and your happiness, | remind yourself that your grievances are hiding the light of the |

| W1:77.4 | confidently that you are entitled to miracles. Closing your eyes, | remind yourself that you are asking only for what is rightfully |
| W1:77.4 | yourself that you are asking only for what is rightfully yours. | Remind yourself also that miracles are never taken from one and given |
| W1:91.14 | Five or six times an hour at reasonably regular intervals | remind yourself that miracles are seen in light. Also, be sure to |
| W1:94.7 | of practicing for the first five minutes of every hour, at least | remind yourself hourly: |
| W1:99.18 | Your only function tells you you are one. | Remind yourself of this between the times you give five minutes to be |
| W1:99.18 | five minutes to be shared with Him Who shares God's plan with you. | Remind yourself: |
| W1:109.11 | Mind in Which these Thoughts were born and where they rest. And we | remind them of their resting place each time we tell ourselves, |
| W1:122.14 | Remind yourself how precious are these gifts with this reminder, | |
| W1:125.10 | As every hour passes by today, be still a moment and | remind yourself you have a special purpose for this day—in quiet to |

| W1:131.18 | of grace for you and for the world. If you forget this happy fact, | remind yourself with this: |
| W1:135.28 | raise defensiveness in you and tempt you to engage in weaving plans, | remind yourself this is a special day for learning, and acknowledge |
| W1:153.19 | disappear as we remember that His strength abides in us. We will | remind ourselves that He remains beside us through the day and never |

| W1:38.4 | practice periods, each preferably to last a full five minutes, | repeat the idea for today, close your eyes, and then search your mind |
| W1:39.10 | the applications with several short periods during which you merely | repeat today's idea to yourself slowly a few times. You may also find |
| W1:39.14 | an hour and more if possible, you may ask yourself this question, | repeat today's idea, or preferably both. If temptations arise, a |

| W1:41.5 | with your eyes closed. At the beginning of the practice period, | repeat today's idea very slowly. Then make no effort to think of |
| W1:41.6 | From time to time, you may | repeat today's idea if you find it helpful. But most of all, try to |
| W1:42.4 | slowly with eyes open, looking about you. Then close your eyes and | repeat the idea again, quite slowly. After this, try to think of |
| W1:42.7 | to come to mind. If such interferences occur, open your eyes and | repeat the thought once more while looking slowly about; close your |
| W1:42.7 | the thought once more while looking slowly about; close your eyes, | repeat the idea once more, and then continue to look for related |

| W1:44.9 | If resistance rises in any form, pause long enough to | repeat today's idea, keeping your eyes closed unless you are aware of |
| W1:44.11 | Throughout the day, | repeat the idea often with eyes open or closed as seems better to you |
| W1:45.6 | do so. After you have added some four or five thoughts of your own, | repeat the idea again, and tell yourself gently: |
| W1:45.12 | of the mind that thinks with God. Take a minute or two as you | repeat the idea throughout the day to appreciate your mind's |

| W1:61.7 | the situation permits. Let a few related thoughts come to you, and | repeat the idea to yourself if your mind wanders away from the |
| W1:62.8 | is the awareness that they are true. Should your attention wander, | repeat the idea and add: |
| W1:63.3 | the thought of it in our awareness. And throughout the day, we will | repeat this as often as we can: |

| W1:75.7 | looks like. You merely wait to have it shown to you. While you wait, | repeat several times slowly and in complete patience: |
| W1:76.12 | of the joys of Heaven which His laws keep limitless forever. We will | repeat today's idea until we have listened and understood there are |

| Tx:10.85 | beyond your healing power because nothing will be denied your simple | request. What problems will not disappear in the presence of God's |

| Tx:12.20 | until you asked for special favor. And God did not give it, for the | request was alien to Him, and you could not ask this of a Father Who |

| W1:159.6 | Here the door is never locked, and no one is denied his least | request or his most urgent need. There is no sickness not already |
| W1:161.10 | will give it to you. Ask him not to symbolize your fear. Would you | request that love destroy itself? Or would you have it be revealed to |

| Tx:15.70 | which it regards as purification, is actually the root of its bitter | resentment. For it would much prefer to attack directly and avoid |

reservation (3) | ||
| Tx:18.60 | without specific reference. Yet in every case, you joined it without | reservation because you love it and would be with it. And so you rush |
| Tx:18.66 | It is impossible to accept the holy instant without | reservation unless just for an instant you are willing to see no past |
| W1:27.2 | want to see above all else. If you become uneasy about the lack of | reservation involved, add: |
reservations (3) | ||
| Tx:21.14 | from sin, all to be given you. Say only this, but mean it with no | reservations, for here the power of salvation lies: |
| W2:284.1 | many times and next to be accepted as but partly true with many | reservations. Then to be considered seriously more and more, and |
| W2:284.1 | that hurt. And I would go beyond these words today, go past all | reservations, and arrive at full acceptance of the truth in them. |
reserve (4) | ||
| Tx:17.3 | what this must do to your appreciation of the whole! What you | reserve unto yourself, you take away from Him Who would release you. |
| Tx:17.5 | the illusions are unreal and thus enable you to escape from them. | Reserve not one idea aside from truth, or you establish orders of |
| W2:233.2 | us on. And as we walk together, we will give this day to Him with no | reserve at all. This is His day. And so it is a day of countless |
| W2:WISC.1 | let forgiveness rest upon all things without exception and without | reserve. |

| Tx:1.77 | because it is an experience of unspeakable love. Awe should be | reserved for revelation, to which it is perfectly and correctly |
| Tx:2.25 | Denial should be directed only to error, and projection should be | reserved only for truth. You should truly give as you have truly |

| W2:WAI.1 | I am the holy home of God Himself. I am the Heaven where His love | resides. I am His holy sinlessness itself, for in my purity abides |

residual (1) | ||
| Tx:3.11 | There is another point which must be perfectly clear before any | residual fear which may still be associated with miracles becomes |

| Tx:5.59 | once what you have made is undone by the Holy Spirit, the blessed | residue is restored and therefore continues in creation. |

resist (6) | ||
| Tx:12.1 | way of your remembering God, Whose pull is so strong that you cannot | resist it. On this issue, then, the deepest split of all occurs, for |
| Tx:22.49 | a mountain. Yet within you there is a Force which no illusions can | resist. This body only seems to be immovable; this Force is |
| Tx:30.91 | forms of idols have a powerful appeal which makes them harder to | resist than those you would not want to have reality. Temptation, |
| W1:I.5 | them, and you need not welcome them. Some of them you may actively | resist. None of this will matter nor decrease their efficacy. But |
| W1:6.4 | Again, if you | resist applying the idea to some upsetting thoughts more than to |
| W1:182.8 | you hear His Voice. So poignantly He calls to you that you will not | resist Him longer. In that instant, He will take you to His home, and |
resistance (10) | ||
| Tx:30.2 | each time you wake, will put you well ahead. And if you find | resistance strong and dedication weak, you are not ready. Do not |
| W1:9.2 | there. This idea can be quite disturbing and may meet with active | resistance in any number of forms. Yet that does not preclude |
| W1:13.8 | You may find it difficult to avoid | resistance in one form or another to this concluding statement. |
| W1:13.8 | one form or another to this concluding statement. Whatever form such | resistance may take, remind yourself that you are really afraid of |

| W1:19.2 | is a fact that there are no private thoughts. Despite your initial | resistance to this idea, you will yet understand that it must be true |
| W1:44.5 | we will use today, but you may find that you will encounter strong | resistance. The reason is very simple. While you practice in this |
| W1:44.9 | If | resistance rises in any form, pause long enough to repeat today's |
| W1:123.1 | roads. There is no thought of turning back and no implacable | resistance to the truth. A bit of wavering remains, some small |
| M:5.4 | it is a decision, it is the mind and not the body that makes it. The | resistance to recognizing this is enormous, because the existence of |

resolution (13) | ||
| Tx:2.98 | by the simple assumption that it need be mastered. The essential | resolution rests entirely on the mastery of love. In the interim, the |
| Tx:3.77 | Your minds are split with your Souls on this point, and there is no | resolution while you believe the one thing that is literally |
| Tx:6.69 | to accept the conflict rather than take the next step towards its | resolution. Having taken the first step, however, they will be |
| Tx:25.80 | unfair. It is impossible the Holy Spirit could see unfairness as a | resolution. To Him, what is unfair must be corrected because it is |
| Tx:25.81 | He cannot see. The world solves problems in another way. It sees a | resolution as a state in which it is decided who shall win and who |
| Tx:26.14 | a problem for yourself to solve or judge that it is one which has no | resolution, you have made it great and past the hope of healing. You |

| Tx:27.36 | can be no answer and no resolution, for its purpose is to make no | resolution possible and to ensure no answer will be plain. A problem |
| W1:24.5 | as many goals as possible that you would like to be met in its | resolution. The form of each application should be roughly as follows: |
| W1:71.8 | that there is an answer to what seems to be a conflict with no | resolution possible. All things are possible to God. Salvation must |

| W1:108.1 | it reconciles all seeming opposites. And what is light except the | resolution, born of peace, of all your conflicts and mistaken |
| M:7.5 | the outcome of any problem that has been given to God's Teacher for | resolution is always self-doubt. And that necessarily implies that |
resolutions (1) | ||
| Tx:17.21 | The Holy Spirit wills only to make His | resolutions complete and perfect, and so He seeks and finds the |
resolve (23) | ||
| Tx:2.98 | to render it out of his control by definition. Yet any attempt to | resolve the basic conflict through the concept of mastery of fear is |
| Tx:3.73 | You cannot | resolve the authority problem by depreciating the power of your |
| Tx:6.36 | Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the Holy Spirit can | resolve conflict, because only the Holy Spirit is conflict-free. He |
| Tx:6.61 | mind, you can overcome death because I did. Death is an attempt to | resolve conflict by not willing at all. Like any other impossible |
| Tx:6.69 | This step appears to exacerbate conflict rather than | resolve it, because it is the beginning step in reversing your |
| Tx:13.23 | are? Salvation is not found by those who use their brothers to | resolve problems which are not there. You wanted not salvation in the |
| Tx:15.104 | as loathsome and live within himself in peace? And who can try to | resolve the perceived conflict of Heaven and hell in him by casting |
| Tx:16.18 | still greater faith in the disaster you have made. Today let us | resolve together to accept the joyful tidings that disaster is not |
| Tx:16.80 | forgiven. From there the miracle extends to bless everyone and to | resolve all problems, be they perceived as great or small, possible |
| Tx:17.63 | be difficult, the ego will attempt to take this aspect elsewhere and | resolve it there. And it will seem to be successful, except that this |
| Tx:25.80 | the problem but has added to it and made it greater, harder to | resolve, and more unfair. It is impossible the Holy Spirit could see |
| Tx:26.31 | at all. Nothing you undertake with certain purpose and high | resolve and happy confidence, holding each other's hand and keeping |
| Tx:30.6 | and then decide to ask what you should do. And what you hear may not | resolve the problem as you saw it first. This leads to fear because |
| W1:47.1 | you the ability to be aware of all the facets of any problem and to | resolve it in such a way that only good can come of it? What is there |
| W1:50.3 | confronts you today. Through the Love of God in you, you can | resolve all seeming difficulties without effort and in sure |
| W1:74.9 | If there is one conflict area which seems particularly difficult to | resolve, single it out for special consideration. Think about it |
| W1:90.4 | which I would have resolved. The miracle behind this grievance will | resolve it for me. The answer to this problem is the miracle which it |
| W1:96.7 | Waste no more time on this. Who can | resolve the senseless conflicts which a dream presents? What could |
| W1:138.7 | salvation must be seen as death, for life is seen as conflict. To | resolve the conflict is to end your life as well. |

| W1:79.9 | one problem and one answer. In this recognition are all problems | resolved. In this recognition there is peace. |
| W1:80.3 | You are entitled to peace today. A problem that has been | resolved cannot trouble you. Only be certain you do not forget that |

| Tx:5.30 | is will. I have enjoined you to behave as I behaved, but we must | respond to the same mind to do this. This mind is the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:5.61 | with the ego, you must perceive yourself as guilty. Whenever you | respond to your ego, you will experience guilt and you will fear |
| Tx:5.95 | as sincerely as you can, remembering that the Holy Spirit will | respond fully to your slightest invitation: |
| Tx:6.7 | of assault in persecution, because you cannot be persecuted. If you | respond with anger, you must be equating yourself with the |
| Tx:6.16 | for themselves. When you perceive only this need in them and do not | respond to any other, you will have learned of me and will be as |
| Tx:7.11 | are believed in. The laws of mind govern thoughts, and you do | respond to two conflicting voices. You have heard many arguments on |
| Tx:8.21 | learning what you are because you are teaching what you are. He will | respond either with pain or with joy, depending on which teacher you |
| Tx:9.41 | you are. The ego is deceived by everything you do, even when you | respond to the Holy Spirit, because at such times its confusion |

| Tx:11.38 | ego would be totally inadequate in love's presence, for it could not | respond at all. You would have to abandon the ego's guidance, for it |

| Tx:14.52 | content at all. It is merely form, and nothing else. For you do not | respond to what a brother really offers you, but only to the |
| Tx:14.65 | what anything, including this, means. And so I do not know how to | respond to it. And I will not use my own past learning as the light |
| Tx:15.83 | Source of the attempt, it will succeed. The Holy Spirit asks you to | respond as God does, for He would teach you what you do not |
| Tx:15.83 | does, for He would teach you what you do not understand. God would | respond to every need, whatever form it takes. And so He has kept |

| Tx:26.1 | expression of a wish to see a little part of him and sacrifice the | rest. Look at the world, and you will see nothing attached to |
| Tx:26.3 | fences off becomes the self, preserved through sacrifice of all the | rest. And all the rest must lose this little part, remaining |

| Tx:26.12 | which you perceive that makes each one seem different from the | rest. Think not the limits you impose on what you see can limit God |
| Tx:26.15 | not will he suffer loss. The miracle of justice you call forth will | rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the Holy Spirit be content |
| Tx:26.28 | any other. Each reminds him of His Father's love as surely as the | rest. And each one teaches him that what he fear[s,] he loves the |
| Tx:26.44 | to you. For no one can make one illusion real and still escape the | rest. For who can choose to keep the ones which he prefers and find |
| Tx:26.51 | impossible that one illusion be less amenable to truth than are the | rest. But it is possible that some are given greater value and less |
| Tx:27.7 | at all. The strongest witness to futility, which bolsters all the | rest and helps them paint the picture in which sin is justified, is |
| Tx:27.27 | be the function which the Holy Spirit sees as His. And you can | rest assured that He will not fulfill a function He cannot understand |

| W1:25.6 | idea for today followed by looking about you and letting your glance | rest on whatever happens to catch your eye, near or far, “important” |
| W1:28.8 | of the subject which your eyes happen to light on, and you should | rest your eyes on it while saying: |

| W1:93.10 | Then put away your foolish self-images and spend the | rest of the practice period in trying to experience what God has |

| W1:107.3 | more than just the faintest intimation of the state your mind will | rest in when the truth has come. |
| W1:107.12 | Truth will correct all errors in my mind, and I will | rest in Him Who is my Self. |
| W1:109.1 | We ask for | rest today and quietness unshaken by the world's appearances. We ask |
| W1:109.2 | “I | rest in God.” This thought will bring to you the rest and quiet, |
| W1:109.2 | “I rest in God.” This thought will bring to you the | rest and quiet, peace and stillness, and the safety and the happiness |
| W1:109.2 | peace and stillness, and the safety and the happiness you seek. “I | rest in God.” This thought has power to wake the sleeping truth in |
| W1:109.3 | “I | rest in God.” Completely undismayed this thought will carry you |
| W1:109.3 | And no appearance but will turn to truth before the eyes of you who | rest in God. |

| W1:109.4 | you in your rest, and they will hear and come to you because you | rest in God. They will not hear another voice but yours because you |

| W1:109.6 | You | rest today. And as you close your eyes, sink into stillness. Let |
| W1:109.6 | as you close your eyes, sink into stillness. Let these periods of | rest and respite reassure your mind that all its frantic fantasies |
| W1:109.6 | accept its healing. No more fearful dreams will come now that you | rest in God. Take time today to slip away from dreams and into peace. |
| W1:109.7 | Each hour that you take your | rest today, a tired mind is suddenly made glad, a bird with broken |
| W1:109.7 | long dry begins to flow again. The world is born again each time you | rest, and hourly remember that you came to bring the peace of God |
| W1:109.7 | came to bring the peace of God into the world that it might take its | rest along with you. |
| W1:109.8 | With each five minutes that you | rest today the world is nearer waking. And the time when rest will be |
| W1:109.8 | that you rest today the world is nearer waking. And the time when | rest will be the only thing there is comes closer to all worn and |
| W1:109.9 | You | rest within the peace of God today and call upon your brothers from |
| W1:109.9 | within the peace of God today and call upon your brothers from your | rest, to draw them to their rest along with you. You will be faithful |
| W1:109.9 | and call upon your brothers from your rest, to draw them to their | rest along with you. You will be faithful to your trust today, |
| W1:109.9 | the boundless circle of your peace, the holy sanctuary where you | rest. |
| W1:109.10 | brothers and your closest friends—bid them all enter here and | rest with you. You rest within the peace of God today, quiet and |
| W1:109.10 | closest friends—bid them all enter here and rest with you. You | rest within the peace of God today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother |
| W1:109.10 | of God today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to take his | rest and offer it to you. |
| W1:109.11 | We | rest together here, for thus our rest is made complete, and what we |
| W1:109.11 | We rest together here, for thus our | rest is made complete, and what we give today we have received |
| W1:109.11 | and to the Mind in Which these Thoughts were born and where they | rest. And we remind them of their resting place each time we tell |
| W1:109.12 | I | rest in God. |
| W1:R3.11 | Repeat it, and allow your mind to | rest a little time in silence and in peace. Then turn to other |
| W1:120.2 | [109] I | rest in God. I rest in God today and let Him work in me and through |
| W1:120.2 | [109] I rest in God. I | rest in God today and let Him work in me and through me, while I rest |
| W1:120.2 | I rest in God today and let Him work in me and through me, while I | rest in Him in quiet and in perfect certainty. |
| W1:120.5 | I | rest in God. |

| W1:124.8 | He will not fail. Abide with Him this half an hour. He will do the | rest. |
| W1:126.5 | If this be true, forgiveness has no grounds on which to | rest dependably and sure. It is an eccentricity in which you |
| W1:127.7 | escape from every law in which you now believe. Open your mind and | rest. The world that seems to hold you prisoner can be escaped by |
| W1:128.6 | it will fly in sureness and in joy to join its holy purpose. Let it | rest in its Creator, there to be restored to sanity, to freedom, and |
| W1:128.7 | Give it ten minutes | rest three times today. And when your eyes are opened afterwards, you |
| W1:128.7 | it belongs. And you belong where it would be and where it goes to | rest when you release it from the world. Your Guide is sure. Open |
| W1:128.7 | the world. Your Guide is sure. Open your mind to Him. Be still and | rest. |
| W1:129.10 | the lights of Heaven bend to you, to shine upon your eyelids as you | rest beyond the world of darkness. Here is light your eyes cannot |
| W1:132.18 | Then merely | rest, alert but with no strain, and let your mind in quietness be |
| W1:133.9 | Your next consideration is the one on which the others | rest. Why is the choice you make of value to you? What attracts your |
| W1:134.1 | must be seen as mere eccentric folly, and this course appear to | rest salvation on a whim. |
| W1:134.4 | is a lie. Thus is forgiveness really but a sin, like all the | rest. It says the truth is false and smiles on the corrupt as if they |
| W1:135.23 | For 15 minutes twice today, we | rest from senseless planning and from every thought which blocks the |
| W1:136.2 | it is an insane device for self-deception. And like all the | rest, its purpose is to hide reality, attack it, change it, render it |
| W1:137.2 | is isolation. For it seems to keep one self apart from all the | rest to suffer what the others do not feel. It gives the body final |
| W1:137.11 | it not within his mind becomes a haven where the weary can remain to | rest. For here is truth bestowed, and here are all illusions brought |
| W1:137.16 | Let healing be through you this very day. And as you | rest in quiet, be prepared to give as you receive, to hold but what |
| W1:138.5 | they offer you. Decisions are the outcome of your learning, for they | rest on what you have accepted as the truth of what you are and what |
| W1:138.6 | this is the simplest, most definitive, the prototype of all the | rest, the one which settles all decisions. If you could decide the |
| W1:138.6 | rest, the one which settles all decisions. If you could decide the | rest, this one remains unsolved. But when you solve this one, the |
| W1:R4.7 | deceive, and let this thought alone engage it fully and remove the | rest: |
| W1:R4.11 | they are. We need no more than this to give us happiness and | rest and endless quiet, perfect certainty, and all our Father wills |
| W1:153.10 | and in silence think how holy is your purpose, how secure you | rest, untouchable within its light. God's ministers have chosen that |
| W1:155.10 | you go, but One Who knows goes with you. Let Him lead you with the | rest. |
| W1:157.4 | Nothing is needed but today's idea to light your mind and let it | rest in still anticipation and in quiet joy wherein you quickly leave |
| W1:161.12 | Select one brother, symbol of the | rest, and ask salvation of him. See him first as clearly as you can |
| W1:162.3 | them with him as he goes to sleep. His dreams are happy and his | rest secure, his safety certain and his body healed because he sleeps |
| W1:163.4 | Here is the Will of Father and of Son defeated finally and laid to | rest beneath the headstone death has placed upon the body of the holy |
| W1:163.6 | would not cherish and would yet avoid while still believing in the | rest. For death is total. Either all things die or else they live and |
| W1:164.4 | before that you will know that here your treasure is and here your | rest. |
| W1:165.3 | and his peace, his joy, his healing and his peace of mind, his quiet | rest, his calm awakening if he but recognized where they abide? Would |
| W1:169.10 | is done. It does not matter. For your part is still what all the | rest depends on. As you take the role assigned to you, salvation |
| W1:170.6 | for solace and escape from doubts about your strength and hope of | rest in dreamless quiet. And as love is shorn of what belongs to it |
| W1:R5.15 | as we approach the Source of meaning. It is here that we find | rest. |
| W1:I2.3 | no more than this is needed. It will be enough to guarantee the | rest will come. |
| W1:182.5 | home so deeply, so unceasingly, His voice cries unto you to let Him | rest a while. He does not ask for more than just a few instants of |
| W1:182.9 | Rest with Him frequently today. For He was willing to become a little | |
| W1:185.5 | of form, for one will bring the same despair and misery as do the | rest. |
| W1:185.7 | the hope that there may yet be one which can succeed where all the | rest have failed. To mean these words acknowledges illusions are in |
| W1:186.8 | We will accept the function God has given us, for all illusions | rest upon the weird belief that we can make another for ourselves. |
| W1:186.10 | change ten times an hour at their most secure. What hope of gain can | rest on goals like this? |
| W1:189.9 | go to Him. But we do choose to let Him come. And with this choice we | rest. And in our quiet hearts and open minds His love will blaze its |
| W1:191.12 | there. Is not your heart willing to bring your weary brothers | rest? |
| W1:193.13 | or nail to hurt His sacred Son in any way. He would ensure his holy | rest remain untroubled and serene, without a care in an eternal home |
| W1:194.9 | Now are we saved indeed. For in God's hands we | rest untroubled, sure that only good can come to us. If we forget, we |
| W1:194.9 | if we are tempted to attack, we will appeal to Him Who guards our | rest to make the choice for us that leaves temptation far behind. No |
| W1:195.7 | our brothers lean their tired heads against our shoulders as they | rest a while. We offer thanks for them. For if we can direct them to |

| W2:I.7 | In this certainty, we undertake these last few steps to You and | rest in confidence upon Your Love, Which will not fail the Son who |

| W2:WIRW.1 | The real world is a symbol like the | rest of what perception offers. Yet it stands for what is opposite to |

| Tx:10.5 | to be and where he is. In whatever part of the Mind of God's Son you | restore this reality, you restore it to yourself. For you dwell in |
| Tx:10.5 | whatever part of the Mind of God's Son you restore this reality, you | restore it to yourself. For you dwell in the Mind of God with your |
| Tx:10.75 | for you, and if you will let Him interpret it for you, He will | restore what you have thrown away. As long as you think you know its |
| Tx:10.81 | God. This is its reality. Would the Holy Spirit, Who wills only to | restore, be capable of misinterpreting the question you must ask to |
| Tx:12.11 | of this that you are really afraid. For this memory would instantly | restore you to your proper place, and it is this place that you have |
| Tx:12.75 | Hold me dear, for what except your brothers can you need? We will | restore to you the peace of mind that we must find together. The Holy |
| Tx:13.29 | God where you are. And this is reason, which the Holy Spirit would | restore to you. He would remove only illusions. All else He would |
| Tx:13.41 | prevail against the peace God wills for you. The Holy Spirit will | restore your sanity, because insanity is not the Will of God. If that |
| Tx:13.88 | already been accomplished. Ask, rather, to learn how to forgive and | restore what always was to your unforgiving mind. Atonement becomes |
| Tx:14.11 | exempt from the effects of this most holy lesson, which seeks but to | restore what is the right of God's creation. From everyone whom you |
| Tx:14.13 | me within. Fail not the only purpose to which my teaching calls you. | Restore to God His Son as He created him by teaching him his |
| Tx:14.14 | Whom you perceive as guilty, you would crucify. Yet you | restore guiltlessness to whomever you see as guiltless. Crucifixion |
| Tx:14.14 | and therefore cannot crucify nor suffer crucifixion. The temple you | restore becomes your altar, for it was rebuilt through you. And |
| Tx:14.14 | you give to God is yours. Thus He creates, and thus must you | restore. |
| Tx:14.23 | He therefore must remove whatever interferes with it in order to | restore it. Therefore, keep no source of interference from His sight, |
| Tx:15.15 | you leave it to the Holy Spirit to use. He needs but very little to | restore God's whole power to you. He Who transcends time for you |
| Tx:15.29 | me, who decided for holiness for you. It is our task together to | restore the awareness of magnitude to the host whom God appointed for |
| Tx:15.81 | Father. Refuse not the awareness of your completion and seek not to | restore it to yourselves. Fear not to give redemption over to your |
| Tx:15.105 | loss? And who can suffer sacrifice and loss without attempting to | restore himself? Yet how could you accomplish this yourselves when |
| Tx:16.70 | the special relationship, which becomes a way in which you seek to | restore your wounded self-esteem. What basis would you have for |
| Tx:16.79 | come to you. His help suffices, for His Messenger understands how to | restore the Kingdom to you and to place all your investment in |
| Tx:17.6 | of you away from truth and from salvation. As you forgive him, you | restore to truth what was denied by both of you. And you will see |
| Tx:17.28 | would transform them. And by that all that is meant is that He will | restore to them the function given them by God. The function you have |
| Tx:18.37 | it ready for Him, but only that I do not interfere with His plan to | restore to me my own awareness of my readiness, which is eternal. I |
| Tx:28.6 | concealed the truth about yourself. Time neither takes away nor can | restore. And yet you make strange use of it, as if the past had |
| Tx:29.56 | worthy of the gift of Heaven and eternal peace. The miracle does not | restore the truth, the light the veil between has not put out. It |

| W1:62.3 | your mind. It will take away all fear and guilt and pain. It will | restore the invulnerability and power God gave His Son to your |
| W1:126.6 | from what you see in someone other than yourself. It has no power to | restore your unity with him to your awareness. It is not what God |
| W1:152.14 | And He Who never left will come again to our awareness, grateful to | restore His home to God as it was meant to be. |
| W1:170.9 | standing before this idol, seeing him exactly as he is. Will you | restore to love what you have sought to wrest from it and lay before |

| W1:192.6 | the mind of thinking that the body is its home. Only forgiveness can | restore the peace that God intended for His holy Son. Only |
| W2:WIHS.3 | offer them to Him, He will employ the means you made for exile to | restore your mind to where it truly is at home. |
| W2:335.2 | What could | restore Your memory to me except to see my brother's sinlessness? His |

| Tx:2.98 | simple assumption that it need be mastered. The essential resolution | rests entirely on the mastery of love. In the interim, the sense of |

| Tx:6.2 | conclusion is to consider the sanity of the premises on which it | rests. You cannot be attacked; attack has no justification; and you |
| Tx:6.90 | You learn first that having | rests on giving and not on getting. Next you learn that you learn |

| Tx:21.19 | you will also see how circular the reasoning on which your “seeing” | rests. This was not given you. This was your gift to you and to your |

| Tx:22.50 | you are alone. This is the cost of all illusions. Not one but | rests on the belief that you are separate. Not one that does not seem |
| Tx:23.38 | it seem quite possible to value some above the others. Yet each one | rests as surely on the belief the laws of chaos are the laws of order |
| Tx:24.28 | not the truth in you. It can be thrown off balance by anything. What | rests on nothing never can be stable. However large and overblown it |
| Tx:24.66 | that you see in it has meaning, and if that is true, its safety | rests secure. If not, it has no purpose and is means for nothing. |
| Tx:24.66 | Whatever is perceived as means for truth shares in its holiness and | rests in light as safely as itself. Nor will that light go out when |
| Tx:24.72 | One do you see outside yourself, your own beloved son. The other | rests within, His Father's Son, within your brother as he is in you. |
| Tx:25.25 | Perception | rests on choosing; knowledge does not. Knowledge has but one law |
| Tx:25.43 | The grace of God | rests gently on forgiving eyes, and everything they look on speaks of |
| Tx:25.43 | of vengeance nor a punisher of sin. The kindness of his sight | rests on himself with all the tenderness it offers others. For he |

| Tx:25.53 | and the Son are not insane. This world is meaningless because it | rests on sin. Who could create the changeless if it does not rest on |
| Tx:25.61 | be impossible if this is true. This is the rock on which salvation | rests, the vantage point from which the Holy Spirit gives meaning and |
| Tx:25.86 | give. Each one becomes an illustration of the law on which salvation | rests—that justice must be done to all if anyone is to be healed. |

| M:6.3 | is part of the gift. No one can give if he is concerned with the | result of the giving. That is a limitation on the giving itself, and |
| M:7.1 | there to repeat? For a teacher of God to remain concerned about the | result of healing is to limit the healing. It is now the teacher of |

| Tx:3.18 | The | Resurrection demonstrated that nothing can destroy truth. Good can |

| Tx:6.34 | can speak only for this because he speaks for God. He tells you to | return your whole mind to God, because it has never left Him. If it |

| Tx:9.17 | for you as the First was created. The Second Coming is merely the | return of sense. Can this possibly be fearful? |

| Tx:12.42 | what He sees within you, and He would extend it. And He will not | return unto the Father until He has extended your perception even |
| Tx:12.53 | as your hymns of praise and gladness rise to your Creator, He will | return your thanks in His clear answer to your call. For it can never |

| Tx:19.48 | how easily this little wisp is lifted up and carried away, never to | return, and part with it in gladness, not regret. For it is nothing |
| Tx:19.49 | on itself. And each has messengers which they send forth and which | return to them with messages written in the language in which their |
| Tx:19.50 | Love's messengers are gently sent and | return with messages of love and gentleness. The messengers of fear |
| Tx:19.51 | emotion was called on to send its messengers to look upon it and | return with word of what they saw. Fear's messengers are trained |
| Tx:19.51 | by their master, who allows them to feast only upon what they | return to him. No little shred of guilt escapes their hungry eyes. |
| Tx:19.52 | and flesh. They have been taught to seek for the corruptible and to | return with gorges filled with things decayed and rotted. To them |
| Tx:19.53 | send instead of those you trained through fear. They are as eager to | return to you what they hold dear as are the others. If you send them |
| Tx:19.53 | no little breath of love escape their notice. And they will | return with all the happy things they found, to share them lovingly |
| Tx:19.54 | Holy Spirit has given you His messengers to send to each other and | return to each with what love sees. They have been given to replace |

| Tx:20.47 | Idols accept, but never make | return. They can be loved, but cannot love. They do not understand |
| Tx:20.50 | them. This is the temple dedicated to no relationships and no | return. Here is the “mystery” of separation perceived in awe and held |
| Tx:20.54 | the unholy instant is exchanged in gladness for the holy one of safe | return. Here is the way to true relationships held gently open, |
| Tx:20.67 | valuing the “something else,” and what was never lost will quietly | return. It has been saved for you. Vision would not be necessary had |
| Tx:21.64 | from you and from his Father forever and without a hope of safe | return. You teach him this, and you will learn of him exactly what |
| Tx:22.3 | the truth. Just under Heaven does he stand, but close enough not to | return to earth. For this relationship has Heaven's holiness. How far |
| Tx:22.15 | and His gentle innocence protected from attack. And here can He | return in confidence, for faith in one another is always faith in |
| Tx:22.40 | world that needs the light. And from this holy place He will | return with you, not leaving it nor you. You will become His |
| Tx:22.46 | carved into a block out of your peace and laid between you and its | return. Yet how can peace be so fragmented? It is still whole, and |
| Tx:23.39 | away from truth. Think not one step is smaller than another nor that | return from one is easier. The whole descent from Heaven lies in each |
| Tx:23.46 | that haunts the place of death is not apparent, that it will not | return. There is no safety in a battleground. You can look down on it |
| Tx:24.19 | and one with him. He waits for your forgiveness only that he may | return it unto you. It is not God Who has condemned His Son. But only |
| Tx:25.40 | The Son of God asks only this of you—that you | return to him what is his due that you may share in it with him. |
| Tx:25.74 | one does the Holy Spirit ask if he will be that one, so justice may | return to love and there be satisfied. Each special function He |
| Tx:25.83 | are unforgivable and warrant vengeance in place of healing and | return of peace? |

| Tx:30.71 | unjustified, you would be asked to sacrifice your rights when you | return forgiveness for attack. But you are merely asked to see |
| W1:4.5 | exercises more than three or four times during the day. We will | return to them later. |
| W1:43.11 | to occur in which you become preoccupied with irrelevant thoughts. | Return to the first phase of the exercises as often as necessary to |

| W1:55.4 | I could not see a world of attack. As forgiveness allows love to | return to my awareness, I will see a world of peace and safety and |
| W1:62.1 | of the world. Through your forgiveness does the truth about yourself | return to your memory. Therefore in your forgiveness lies your |
| W1:68.9 | in a world which protects you and loves you and which you love in | return. Try to feel safety surrounding you, hovering over you, and |
| W1:95.7 | not, however, use your lapses from this schedule as an excuse not to | return to it again as soon as you can. |
| W1:98.6 | And since time has no meaning, you are being asked for nothing in | return for everything. Here is a bargain that you cannot lose. And |
| W1:105.2 | gift is given thus. Such “gifts” are but a bid for a more valuable | return—a loan with interest to be paid in full; a temporary |
| W1:105.7 | laws of God. Here you denied them to yourself. And here you must | return to claim them as your own. Think of your “enemies” a little |
| W1:107.13 | envelop you and give you peace so deep and tranquil that you will | return to the familiar world reluctantly. |
| W1:108.12 | you in the amount in which you gave it. You will find you have exact | return, for this is what you asked. It might be helpful, too, to |
| W1:121.6 | forgive the self you think you made and let it disappear. Thus you | return your mind as one to Him Who is your Self and Who can never sin. |
| W1:122.13 | Let not your gifts recede throughout the day, as you | return again to meet a world of shifting change and bleak |
| W1:124.11 | own. Count this half hour as your gift to God, in certainty that His | return will be a sense of love you cannot understand, a joy too deep |
| W1:125.5 | He has not waited until you | return your mind to Him to give His Word to you. He has not hid |
| W1:132.7 | as far as he can let himself be led along the road to truth. He will | return and go still farther, or perhaps step back a while and then |

| W1:140.4 | indeed. For sickness now is gone, with nothing left to which it can | return. |
| W1:153.21 | are His gifts to you. Defenselessness is all you need to give Him in | return. You lay aside but what was never real to look on Christ and |
| W1:157.3 | Today it will be given you to feel a touch of Heaven, though you will | return to paths of learning. Yet you have come far enough along the |
| W1:157.7 | goals but this become of little worth, the world to which you will | return becomes a little closer to the end of time, a little more like |

| W1:187.2 | which the thought seems to appear is changed in giving. Yet it must | return to him who gives. Nor can the form it takes be less |
| W1:188.7 | back to peace from where they came but to remind you how you must | return. They heed your Father's Voice when you refuse to listen. And |
| W1:191.5 | hold it prisoner. And from this place of safety and escape, you will | return and set it free. For he who can accept his true Identity is |
| W1:191.12 | let the Son of God awaken from his sleep, and opening his holy eyes | return again to bless the world he made. In error it began. But it |
| W1:192.2 | need the means to let illusion go. Creation merely waits for your | return to be acknowledged, not to be complete. |
| W1:199.8 | You are God's Son. In immortality you live forever. Would you not | return your mind to this? Then practice well the thought the Holy |
| W1:219.1 | God's Son. Be still, my mind, and think a moment upon this. And then | return to earth without confusion as to what my Father loves forever |

| W2:225.1 | are the same, and You have given all Your love to me. I must | return it, for I want it mine in full awareness, blazing in my mind, |
| W2:226.2 | Father, my home awaits my glad | return. Your arms are open, and I hear Your Voice. What need have I |
| W2:227.2 | And so today we find our glad | return to Heaven, which we never really left. The Son of God this day |
| W2:246.1 | of all the love my Father has for me and all the love which I | return to Him. |
| W2:249.2 | Father, we would | return our minds to You. We have betrayed them, held them in a vise |
| W2:WIS.5 | today? There is no sin. Creation is unchanged. Would you still hold | return to Heaven back? How long, oh holy Son of God, how long? |
| W2:256.1 | today. God is our goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds | return to Him at last. |
| W2:269.1 | You gave to me and through His lessons to surpass perception and | return to truth. I ask for the illusion which transcends all those I |

| W2:324.1 | cannot lose the way. I can but choose to wander off a while and then | return. Your loving Voice will always call me back and guide my feet |

| Tx:7.84 | to other minds in an attempt to persuade you that you have gotten | rid of it. This has several fallacies which may not be so apparent. |
| Tx:7.85 | it cannot be fully shared. Any attempt to keep part of it and get | rid of another part does not really mean anything. Remember that a |
| Tx:7.85 | by his confusion. A second fallacy is the idea that you can get | rid of something you do not want by giving it away. Giving it is how |
| Tx:11.31 | your hatred is in your mind and not outside it before you can get | rid of it and why you must get rid of it before you can perceive the |
| Tx:11.31 | and not outside it before you can get rid of it and why you must get | rid of it before you can perceive the world as it really is. |
| Tx:12.1 | ultimate purpose of projection, as the ego uses it, is always to get | rid of guilt. Yet, characteristically, the ego attempts to get rid of |

| Tx:12.2 | a solution the ego's arrangement is. You project guilt to get | rid of it, but you are actually merely concealing it. You do |
| Tx:17.49 | quite appropriate. You can escape from your distress only by getting | rid of each other. You need not part entirely if you choose not to do |
| Tx:19.40 | The first obstacle that peace must flow across is your desire to get | rid of it. For it cannot extend unless you keep it. You are the |
| Tx:19.46 | The little insane wish to get | rid of Him Who you invited in and push Him out must produce conflict. |
| Tx:19.59 | that peace must first surmount the obstacle of your desire to get | rid of it. Where the attraction of guilt holds sway, peace is not |

| Tx:19.68 | and use it for the Son of God's release. It is not this you would be | rid of, and having it you cannot limit it. If peace is homeless, so |
| Tx:19.94 | and so the fear is gone. And so it is with this. The desire to get | rid of peace and drive the Holy Spirit from you fades in the presence |
| W1:30.2 | to use the new kind of projection. We are not attempting to get | rid of what we do not like by seeing it outside. Instead, we are |
| W1:193.9 | revered no more. These are the words which end the dream of sin and | rid the mind of fear. These are the words by which salvation comes to |

| Tx:11.51 | the curriculum you set yourself is depressing indeed, it is merely | ridiculous if you look at it. Is it possible that the way to achieve |
| Tx:23.10 | eternally. The Son of God at war with his Creator is a condition as | ridiculous as nature roaring at the wind in anger and proclaiming |

| Tx:1.7 | 7. Miracles are everyone's | right, but purification is necessary first. |
| Tx:1.51 | You are free to establish your kingdom where you see fit, but the | right choice is inevitable if you remember this: |
| Tx:1.54 | 37. Miracles are examples of | right thinking. Reality contact at all levels becomes strong and |
| Tx:2.12 | proper creation of man by God and the proper creation by man in his | right mind. The latter required the endowment of man by God with free |
| Tx:2.26 | confusion. “Right-mindedness” is the device which defends the | right mind and gives it control over the body. “Intellectualization” |
| Tx:2.39 | Not being in their | right minds, they turned their defenses from protection to assault |
| Tx:2.49 | and needs to be repaired and protected. Perfectly aware of the | right defense, It passes over all others, looking past error to |
| Tx:2.63 | of the receiver. In fact, its purpose is to restore him to his | right mind. It is essential, however, that the miracle worker be in |
| Tx:2.63 | mind. It is essential, however, that the miracle worker be in his | right mind or he will be unable to reestablish right-mindedness in |
| Tx:2.109 | The Last Judgment might be called a process of | right evaluation. It simply means that finally all men will come to |
| Tx:3.8 | 5. The level-adjustment power of the miracle induces the | right perception for healing. Until this has occurred, healing cannot |
| Tx:3.27 | will do, you are attesting to your belief that he is not in his | right mind. This is hardly a miracle-based frame of reference. It |
| Tx:3.31 | whole. The miracle is a way of perceiving, not of knowing. It is the | right answer to a question, and you do not ask questions at all when |
| Tx:3.34 | and therefore not a device for knowing. It is, however, a means of | right perception, which brings it into the proper domain of the |
| Tx:3.35 | brings the mental strength for creative thinking but not for | right doing. Perception, miracles, and doing are closely related. |
| Tx:3.36 | are afraid of him. Perceive him correctly so that you can know him. | Right perception is necessary before God can communicate directly to |
| Tx:3.43 | be confused with the knowing mind, because it is applicable only to | right perception. You can be right-minded or wrong-minded, and even |
| Tx:3.49 | I cannot choose for you, but I can help you make your own | right choice. “Many are called, but few are chosen” should read, “All |
| Tx:3.49 | are called, but few choose to listen. Therefore, they do not choose | right.” |
| Tx:3.50 | The “chosen ones” are merely those who choose | right sooner. This is the real meaning of the celestial speed-up. |
| Tx:3.53 | if he chooses, but he would hardly want to do it if he were in his | right mind. The problem that bothers you most is the fundamental |
| Tx:3.62 | judged against it. It does not matter in the end whether you judge | right or wrong. Either way, you are placing your belief in the |
| Tx:4.1 | To be egocentric is to be dispirited, but to be Self-centered in the | right sense is to be inspired, or in the Soul. The truly inspired are |
| Tx:4.14 | until they are learned. I am willing to do this because I have no | right to set your learning limits for you. Once again—nothing you |
| Tx:4.19 | and this gives them better perception. The Kingdom of Heaven is the | right of the Soul, whose beauty and dignity are far beyond doubt, |
| Tx:4.26 | something happened in the dim past when it is so clearly happening | right now? |
| Tx:4.36 | Right-mindedness dictates the next step automatically, because | right perception is uniformly without attack, so that |
| Tx:4.64 | well you have done this by your own feelings, for this is the one | right use of judgment. Judgment, like any other defense, can be used |
| Tx:4.81 | perception is a stepping-stone towards it. The whole value of | right perception lies in the inevitable judgment which it entails |
| Tx:4.90 | Father. Love does not conquer all things, but it does set all things | right. Because you are all the Kingdom of God, I can lead you back to |
| Tx:5.9 | your own invitation. The Holy Spirit is nothing more than your own | right mind. He was also mine. The Bible says, “May the mind be in you |
| Tx:5.10 | interpretations. As a man and as one of God's creations, my | right thinking, which came from the Universal Inspiration which is |
| Tx:5.18 | that it had only being and would not have understood the call to | right thinking. The Holy Spirit was God's Answer to the separation, |
| Tx:5.21 | Guidance is evaluative, because it implies that there is a | right way and also a wrong way, one to be chosen and the other to be |
| Tx:5.25 | but he can not know it. It is therefore lost to him until he chooses | right. The Holy Spirit is your Guide in choosing. He is the part of |
| Tx:5.25 | in choosing. He is the part of your mind which always speaks for the | right choice because He speaks for God. He is your remaining |
| Tx:6.49 | and that the learning device is more real than it is. No one in his | right mind could possibly believe this, and no one in his right mind |
| Tx:6.49 | one in his right mind could possibly believe this, and no one in his | right mind does believe it. |
| Tx:7.12 | can listen fairly to both sides of any issue, he will make the | right decision. This is because he has the answer. Conflict can seem |
| Tx:7.36 | in a state of mind which is out of accord with His. The strength of | right perception is so great that it brings the mind into accord with |
| Tx:8.80 | aim for healing. Ask rather that the Holy Spirit teach you the | right perception of the body, for perception alone can be distorted. |
| Tx:9.1 | Holy Spirit, it makes no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and | right and good to point out errors and “correct” them. This makes |
| Tx:9.2 | he will be making no sense. But your task is still to tell him he is | right. You do not tell him this verbally if he is speaking foolishly |
| Tx:9.2 | at another level, since his error is at another level. He is still | right, because he is a Son of God. His ego is always wrong, no matter |
| Tx:9.5 | from telling you that what you teach you learn? Your brother is as | right as you are, and if you think he is wrong, you are condemning |
| Tx:9.12 | of forgiveness because you are asking for one, though not of the | right teacher. The ego's plan, of course, makes no sense and will not |
| Tx:9.18 | Only if the decision that reality is fearful is wrong can God be | right. And I assure you that God is right. Be glad, then, that you |
| Tx:9.18 | is fearful is wrong can God be right. And I assure you that God is | right. Be glad, then, that you have been wrong, but this was only |
| Tx:9.28 | and the wrong choice will not help. But remember also that the | right one will. Trust Him, for help is His function, and He is of God. |
| Tx:9.29 | They will convince you that the words are true. By following the | right Guide you will learn the simplest of all lessons— |
| Tx:9.86 | the willingness to judge unreality for what it is. This is the | right use of selective perception. To overlook nothingness is merely |
| Tx:11.1 | to make it real because it is not true. But truth is real in its own | right, and to believe in truth, you do not have to do anything. |
| Tx:11.3 | he is asking for. Offer him anything else, and you are assuming the | right to attack his reality by interpreting it as you see fit. |
| Tx:11.18 | is inevitable because it is eternal. The goal of love is but your | right, and it belongs to you despite your preference. |
| Tx:11.61 | Miracles demonstrate that learning has occurred under the | right guidance, for learning is invisible, and what has been learned |
| Tx:11.70 | freedom as a prisoner of this world. You can decide to see it | right. What you made of it is not its reality, for its reality is |
| Tx:11.73 | your function. If it is the judgment of the Holy Spirit, it will be | right, for judgment is His function. You share His function only by |
| Tx:12.18 | it you will welcome it, and it will be yours. For grandeur is the | right of God's Son, and no illusions can satisfy him or save him from |
| Tx:12.20 | You who prefer specialness to sanity could not obtain it in your | right minds. You were at peace until you asked for special favor. And |
| Tx:12.24 | reality and that your destruction is the final proof that you were | right. |
| Tx:13.15 | he has done this unto you. Would you, then, teach him that he is | right in his delusion? The idea that the guiltless Son of God can |
| Tx:13.69 | is not a cause, but an effect. It is the natural result of choosing | right, attesting to your happiness that comes from choosing to be |
| Tx:13.90 | Decide that God is | right and you are wrong about yourself. He created you out of Himself |
| Tx:13.92 | learned how to decide with God, all decisions become as easy and as | right as breathing. There is no effort, and you will be led as gently |
| Tx:14.7 | of the Atonement become the teachers of the innocence that is the | right of all that God created. Deny them not what is their due, for |
| Tx:14.8 | The inheritance of the Kingdom is the | right of God's Son, given him in his creation. Do not try to steal it |
| Tx:14.11 | of this most holy lesson, which seeks but to restore what is the | right of God's creation. From everyone whom you accord release from |
| Tx:18.39 | Salvation is easy just because it asks nothing that you cannot give | right now. |
| Tx:18.69 | escape from time. This is the way in which sin loses all attraction | right now. For here is time denied and past and future gone. Who need |
| Tx:19.17 | salvation possible. For error can be corrected, and the wrong made | right. But sin, were it possible, would be irreversible. The belief |
| Tx:20.42 | It never changes. All that it ever held or will ever hold is here | right now. The past takes nothing from it, and the future will add no |
| Tx:20.73 | idle game of death in your imagination. But vision sets all things | right, bringing them gently within the kindly sway of Heaven's laws. |
| Tx:21.19 | The world you see is but the idle witness that you were | right. This witness is insane. You trained it in its testimony, and |
| Tx:21.55 | Reason is a means which serves the Holy Spirit's purpose in its own | right. It is not reinterpreted and redirected from the goal of sin as |
| Tx:22.39 | It is but the first few steps along the | right way that seem hard, for you have chosen, although you still may |
| Tx:25.72 | not different. Because they are the same does mercy stand at God's | right hand and give the Son of God the power to forgive himself of |

| Tx:25.85 | have an equal right to miracles with you, you will not claim your | right to them because you were unjust to one with equal rights. Seek |

| Tx:26.87 | be more unjust than that he be deprived of what he is, denied the | right to be himself, and asked to sacrifice his Father's love and |

| Tx:28.38 | There is a way of finding certainty | right here and now. Refuse to be a part of fearful dreams whatever |
| Tx:29.43 | it must be found. What if it is not there? Do you prefer that you be | right or happy? Be you glad that you are told where happiness abides |
| Tx:29.52 | a situation or a circumstance, an object owned or wanted, or a | right demanded or achieved, it is the same. |

| Tx:30.41 | want. But what you think it offers you, you want indeed and have the | right to ask for. Nor could it be possible it be denied. Your will to |
| Tx:30.65 | price in coins of suffering? Joy has no cost. It is your sacred | right, and what you pay for is not happiness. Be speeded on your way |

| Tx:25.51 | Will? And what can share Its attributes except Itself? What wish can | rise against His Will and be immutable? If you could realize nothing |
| Tx:25.84 | unless you have decided first to be unjust. And then must problems | rise to block your way and peace be scattered by the winds of hate. |

| Tx:26.56 | death and desolation seem to rule. In joyous answer will creation | rise within you to replace the world you see with Heaven, wholly |
| Tx:28.53 | not real. The gap is carefully concealed in fog, and misty pictures | rise to cover it with vague, uncertain forms and changing shapes, |

| Tx:30.64 | to you is past your understanding, for you have enabled Him to | rise from chains and go with you together to His Father's house. |
| Tx:30.72 | This understanding is the only change that lets the real world | rise to take the place of dreams of terror. Fear cannot arise unless |
| Tx:30.88 | you really are. This is a state so seemingly unsafe that fear must | rise. Do not continue thus, my brothers. We have one Interpreter. And |
| Tx:31.3 | you have taught yourselves have been so overlearned and fixed they | rise like heavy curtains to obscure the simple and the obvious. Say |
| Tx:31.6 | Is this a little Voice, so small and still It cannot | rise above the senseless noise of sounds which have no meaning? God |

| Tx:31.77 | but the wish to stay in hell and misery? And what could this give | rise to but an image of yourself that can be miserable and remain in |
| W1:16.2 | self-contradictory concept than that of “idle thoughts.” What gives | rise to the perception of a whole world can hardly be called idle. |
| W1:18.1 | for today is another step in learning that the thoughts which give | rise to what you see are never neutral or unimportant. It also |
| W1:54.2 | world I see arises from my thinking errors, so will the real world | rise before my eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My thoughts |
| W1:55.3 | God and the love of His Son. It is my own attack thoughts which give | rise to this picture. My loving thoughts will save me from this |
| W1:73.2 | co-makers in picturing the world you see. The wishes of the ego gave | rise to it, and the ego's need for grievances, which are necessary to |
| W1:74.2 | finding it. The idea itself is wholly true. Therefore it cannot give | rise to illusions. Without illusions, conflict is impossible. Let us |
| W1:79.5 | previous ones. Others remain unsolved under a cloud of denial and | rise to haunt you from time to time, only to be hidden again but |
| W1:79.10 | by the form of problems today. Whenever any difficulty seems to | rise, tell yourself quickly: |
| W1:123.8 | Him and give Him thanks for everything He gave His Son that he might | rise above the world remembering his Father and his Self. |
| W1:128.6 | Peace and be still a little while, and see how far you | rise above the world when you release your mind from chains and let |
| W1:132.8 | understand and recognize. Some see it suddenly on point of death and | rise to teach it. Others find it in experience that is not of this |
| W1:135.27 | will remember Him. For this is Eastertime in your salvation. And you | rise again from what was seeming death and hopelessness. Now is the |
| W1:136.16 | we give today. We introduce it with a healing prayer to help us | rise above defensiveness and let truth be as it has always been: |
| W1:153.2 | The world gives | rise but to defensiveness. For threat brings anger, anger makes |
| W1:153.19 | We clothe ourselves in it as we prepare to meet the day. We | rise up strong in Christ and let our weakness disappear as we |
| W1:157.3 | you have come far enough along the way to alter time sufficiently to | rise above its laws and walk into eternity a while. This you will |
| W1:168.4 | the world in love and watch fear disappear from every face as hearts | rise up and claim the light as theirs. What now remains that Heaven |
| W1:168.5 | Who answers our mistakes by giving us the means to lay them down and | rise to Him in gratitude and love. |
| W1:169.9 | meaning can the words convey to those who count the hours still and | rise and work and go to sleep by them? |
| W1:186.10 | when you accept the function given you. The images you make give | rise to but conflicting goals, impermanent and vague, uncertain and |
| W1:187.7 | to see all suffering as what it is. The thought of sacrifice gives | rise to all the forms that suffering appears to take. And sacrifice |
| W2:I.9 | across the wide horizons of our minds. A moment more, and it will | rise again. A moment more, and we who are God's Sons are safely home, |
| M:5.5 | else. They are not actually needed at all. The patient could merely | rise up without their aid and say, “I have no use for this.” There is |
| M:10.5 | And it was all illusion. Nothing more. Now can the teacher of God | rise up unburdened and walk lightly on. Yet it is not only this that |
| M:17.4 | can be angry at a fact. It is always an interpretation that gives | rise to negative emotions, regardless of their seeming justification |
| M:17.8 | lead to condemnation, for they do not really have the power to give | rise to guilt. And so they can be overlooked and thus forgotten in |
| M:17.9 | recognize its thought system is to look on nothing. Can nothing give | rise to anger? Hardly so. Remember then, teacher of God, that anger |
| M:19.1 | world. Justice corrects the interpretations to which injustice gives | rise and cancels them out. Neither justice nor injustice exists in |
| M:19.2 | the grandeur of the scene and the enormous opening vistas that | rise to meet one as he travels on, be foretold from the outset. Yet |
| M:28.4 | their purpose is transformed and understood. And we, God's children, | rise up from the dust and look upon our perfect sinlessness. The song |

| Tx:12.47 | as He was created, there is no guilt in Him. No cloud of guilt has | risen to obscure Him, and He stands revealed in everyone you meet |
| Tx:17.78 | before you let yourself use faithlessness against him. For he is | risen, and you have accepted the cause of his awakening as yours. You |

| Tx:20.14 | of Easter, in which we join in glad awareness that the Son of God is | risen from the past and has awakened to the present. Now is he free, |

| Tx:27.77 | enemies. Its safety is its main concern. Its comfort is its guiding | rule. It tries to look for pleasure and avoid the things that would |

| W1:I.4 | with the eyes open, since the aim is to learn how to see. The only | rule that should be followed throughout is to practice the exercises |
| W1:9.3 | the need for its indiscriminate application and the essential | rule of excluding nothing. For example: |
| W1:46.4 | in finding a number of people you have not forgiven. It is a safe | rule that anyone you do not like is a suitable subject. Mention each |

| Tx:15.96 | apart from sacrifice means nothing to you. Your confusion of | sacrifice and love is so profound that you cannot conceive of love |
| Tx:15.96 | and love is so profound that you cannot conceive of love without | sacrifice. And it is this that you must look upon—sacrifice is |
| Tx:15.96 | of love without sacrifice. And it is this that you must look upon— | sacrifice is attack, not love. If you would accept but this one idea, |
| Tx:15.96 | your fear of love would vanish. Guilt cannot last when the idea of | sacrifice has been removed. For if there is sacrifice, as you are |

| Tx:15.98 | for the one idea that hides behind them all—that love demands | sacrifice and is therefore inseparable from attack and fear. And that |
| Tx:15.98 | by fear. How fearful, then, has God become to you, and how great a | sacrifice do you believe His love demands! For total love would |
| Tx:15.98 | do you believe His love demands! For total love would demand total | sacrifice. And so the ego seems to demand less of you than God, and |
| Tx:15.99 | You think that everyone outside yourself demands your | sacrifice, but you do not see that only you demand sacrifice and only |
| Tx:15.99 | demands your sacrifice, but you do not see that only you demand | sacrifice and only of yourself. Yet the demand of sacrifice is so |
| Tx:15.99 | only you demand sacrifice and only of yourself. Yet the demand of | sacrifice is so savage and so fearful that you cannot accept it where |
| Tx:15.99 | given God away rather than look at it. For if God would demand total | sacrifice of you, you thought it safer to project Him outward and |
| Tx:15.99 | is what you invited in that would destroy you and does demand total | sacrifice of you. No partial sacrifice will appease this savage |
| Tx:15.99 | would destroy you and does demand total sacrifice of you. No partial | sacrifice will appease this savage guest, for it is an invader who |
| Tx:15.99 | an invader who but seems to offer kindness, but always to make the | sacrifice complete. |
| Tx:15.100 | In you are both the question and the answer—the demand for | sacrifice and the peace of God. |
| Tx:15.101 | Fear not to recognize the whole idea of | sacrifice as solely of your making. And seek not safety by attempting |
| Tx:15.102 | the sign the time of Christ has come. He comes demanding nothing. No | sacrifice of any kind of anyone is asked by Him. In His Presence, the |
| Tx:15.102 | kind of anyone is asked by Him. In His Presence, the whole idea of | sacrifice loses all meaning. For He is Host to God. And you need but |
| Tx:15.103 | you have accepted it with me, you will give it with me. All pain and | sacrifice and littleness will disappear in our relationship, which is |
| Tx:15.103 | us and disappear in our presence, and without pain there can be no | sacrifice. And without sacrifice, there love must be. |
| Tx:15.103 | presence, and without pain there can be no sacrifice. And without | sacrifice, there love must be. |
| Tx:15.104 | You who believe that | sacrifice is love must learn that sacrifice is separation from love. |
| Tx:15.104 | You who believe that sacrifice is love must learn that | sacrifice is separation from love. For sacrifice brings guilt as |
| Tx:15.104 | is love must learn that sacrifice is separation from love. For | sacrifice brings guilt as surely as love brings peace. Guilt is the |
| Tx:15.104 | guilt as surely as love brings peace. Guilt is the condition of | sacrifice, as peace is the condition for the awareness of your |
| Tx:15.105 | deprived. And so long will you also perceive yourself as a victim of | sacrifice, justified in sacrificing others. For who could thrust |
| Tx:15.105 | For who could thrust Heaven and its Creator aside without a sense of | sacrifice and loss? And who can suffer sacrifice and loss without |
| Tx:15.105 | aside without a sense of sacrifice and loss? And who can suffer | sacrifice and loss without attempting to restore himself? Yet how |
| Tx:15.105 | as you would retain the deprivation, attack becomes salvation, and | sacrifice becomes love. |

| Tx:15.107 | this lesson, you will realize that to sacrifice the body is to | sacrifice nothing, and communication, which must be of the mind, |
| Tx:15.107 | which must be of the mind, cannot be sacrificed. Where, then, is | sacrifice? |
| Tx:15.108 | I was born to teach and still would teach to all my brothers is that | sacrifice is nowhere and love is everywhere. For communication |
| Tx:15.108 | apart from joy. Let us join in celebrating peace by demanding no | sacrifice of anyone, for so will you offer me the love I offer you. |
| Tx:16.49 | for there is no increase and no extension. Each partner tries to | sacrifice the self he does not want for one he thinks he would |
| Tx:16.52 | in which it is thought to occur. The central theme in its litany to | sacrifice is that God must die so you can live. And it is this theme |
| Tx:17.34 | of fanciful and fragmented illusions of love, set with dreams of | sacrifice and self-aggrandizement and interlaced with gilded threads |
| Tx:19.61 | Is it a | sacrifice or a release? What has the body really given you that |
| Tx:19.62 | fear that see the body, for they look for what can suffer. Is it a | sacrifice to be removed from what can suffer? The Holy Spirit does |
| Tx:19.62 | be removed from what can suffer? The Holy Spirit does not demand you | sacrifice the hope of the body's pleasure; it has no hope of |
| Tx:19.64 | you peace. Are you not glad that Heaven cannot be sacrificed, and | sacrifice cannot be asked of you? There is no obstacle which you can |
| Tx:19.68 | Your little part is but to give the Holy Spirit the whole idea of | sacrifice. And to accept the peace He gave instead, without the |
| Tx:19.81 | A body which they dedicated to death, a symbol of corruption, a | sacrifice to sin, offered to sin to feed upon and keep itself alive— |
| Tx:21.37 | Those who believe in sin must think the Holy Spirit asks for | sacrifice, for this is how they think their purpose is accomplished. |
| Tx:21.37 | their purpose is accomplished. Brothers, the Holy Spirit knows that | sacrifice brings nothing. He makes no bargains. And if you seek to |
| Tx:21.38 | Your faith in | sacrifice has given it great power in your sight, except you do not |
| Tx:21.38 | sight, except you do not realize you cannot see because of it. For | sacrifice must be exacted of a body and by another body. The mind |
| Tx:21.38 | and body an inescapable belief of those who value sin. And so is | sacrifice invariably a means for limitation and thus for hate. |
| Tx:21.39 | be one with what depends on darkness to be seen. Neither demands the | sacrifice of the other. Yet on the absence of the other does each |
| Tx:21.40 | The body was made to be a | sacrifice to sin, and in the darkness so it still is seen. Yet in the |
| Tx:24.17 | no longer see what never was, nor hear what makes no sound. Is it a | sacrifice to give up nothing and to receive the love of God forever? |
| Tx:24.49 | savior from the dreams of fear. He is the healing of your sense of | sacrifice and fear that what you have will scatter with the wind and |
| Tx:24.60 | borne. Yet to the dedication to the truth as God established it no | sacrifice is asked, no strain called forth, and all the power of |

| Tx:25.66 | in whatever form it takes. Justice demands no sacrifice, for any | sacrifice is made that sin may be preserved and kept. It is a payment |
| Tx:25.80 | one in which no one loses. And this must be true because He asks no | sacrifice of anyone. An answer which demands the slightest loss to |
| Tx:26.1 | In the “dynamics” of attack is | sacrifice a key idea. It is the pivot upon which all compromise, all |
| Tx:26.1 | for it is always an attempt to limit loss. The body is itself a | sacrifice—a giving up of power in the name of saving just a little |
| Tx:26.1 | yours is the expression of a wish to see a little part of him and | sacrifice the rest. Look at the world, and you will see nothing |
| Tx:26.2 | and join with what is locked away within the wall. Each part must | sacrifice the other part to keep itself complete. For if they joined, |
| Tx:26.3 | little that the body fences off becomes the self, preserved through | sacrifice of all the rest. And all the rest must lose this little |
| Tx:26.3 | intact. In this perception of yourself, the body's loss would be a | sacrifice indeed. For sight of bodies becomes the sign that sacrifice |
| Tx:26.3 | be a sacrifice indeed. For sight of bodies becomes the sign that | sacrifice is limited and something still remains for you alone. And |
| Tx:26.4 | The body is a loss and can be made to | sacrifice. And while you see your brother as a body, apart from you |
| Tx:26.4 | a body, apart from you and separate in his cell, you are demanding | sacrifice of him and you. What greater sacrifice could be demanded |
| Tx:26.4 | his cell, you are demanding sacrifice of him and you. What greater | sacrifice could be demanded than that God's Son perceive himself |
| Tx:26.4 | without his Father? And his Father be without His Son? Yet every | sacrifice demands that they be separate and without the other. The |
| Tx:26.4 | and without the other. The memory of God must be denied if any | sacrifice is asked of anyone. What witness to the wholeness of God's |
| Tx:26.6 | You can lose sight of oneness, but can not make | sacrifice of its reality. Nor can you lose what you would sacrifice |
| Tx:26.6 | not make sacrifice of its reality. Nor can you lose what you would | sacrifice nor keep the Holy Spirit from His task of showing you that |
| Tx:26.6 | to that you may see it and rejoice with him. Make not his holiness a | sacrifice to your belief in sin. You sacrifice your innocence with |
| Tx:26.6 | him. Make not his holiness a sacrifice to your belief in sin. You | sacrifice your innocence with his and die each time you see in him a |
| Tx:26.7 | in you be blotted out because he sees it not. You who would make a | sacrifice of life and make your eyes and ears bear witness to the |
| Tx:26.8 | each instant, untouched by time, and far beyond the reach of any | sacrifice of life or death. For neither did he make, and only one was |
| Tx:26.8 | only one was given him by One Who knows His gifts can never suffer | sacrifice and loss. God's justice rests in gentleness upon His Son |
| Tx:26.8 | lay upon him. Could it be that you could make his sins reality and | sacrifice his Father's Will for him? |
| Tx:26.11 | it seems to take, is a demand that someone suffer loss and make a | sacrifice that you might gain. And when the situation is worked out |
| Tx:26.15 | want to suffer loss and no one whom you wish to be preserved from | sacrifice entirely. Consider once again your special function. One is |
| Tx:26.15 | given you to see in him his perfect sinlessness. And you will ask no | sacrifice of him because you could not will he suffer loss. The |
| Tx:26.16 | without a cure has been transformed into a universal blessing. | Sacrifice is gone. And in its place the love of God can be remembered |
| Tx:26.16 | the love of God can be remembered and will shine away all memory of | sacrifice and loss. |
| Tx:26.24 | two things so clearly unalike.] There is no conflict here. No | sacrifice is possible in the relinquishment of an illusion recognized |
| Tx:26.44 | All belief in sin, in power of attack, in hurt and harm, in | sacrifice and death has come to you. For no one can make one illusion |
| Tx:26.58 | does the Son of God ask not too much but far too little. He would | sacrifice his own identity with everything to find a little treasure |
| Tx:26.59 | real and meaningful. And from this error does the world of sin and | sacrifice arise. This world is an attempt to prove your innocence |
| Tx:26.61 | from guilt. For otherwise he still demands that he must make some | sacrifice and thus denies that everything is his, unlimited by loss |
| Tx:26.61 | denies that everything is his, unlimited by loss of any kind. A tiny | sacrifice is just the same in its effects as is the whole idea of |
| Tx:26.61 | sacrifice is just the same in its effects as is the whole idea of | sacrifice. If loss in any form is possible, then is God's Son made |
| Tx:26.69 | the giving and receiving of the gift seems to be one in which you | sacrifice and suffer loss. You see eventual salvation, not immediate |
| Tx:26.74 | be perceived as “good” some day but now in form of pain. This is a | sacrifice of now, which could not be the cost the Holy Spirit asks |
| Tx:26.87 | you are deprived by someone not yourself. Projection of the cause of | sacrifice is at the root of everything perceived to be unfair and not |
| Tx:26.87 | deprived of what he is, denied the right to be himself, and asked to | sacrifice his Father's love and yours as not his due? |
| Tx:27.1 | treated, he must suffer the unfairness that you see. You cannot | sacrifice yourself alone. For sacrifice is total. If it could occur |
| Tx:27.1 | unfairness that you see. You cannot sacrifice yourself alone. For | sacrifice is total. If it could occur at all, it would entail the |
| Tx:27.1 | it would entail the whole of God's creation and the Father with the | sacrifice of his beloved Son. |
| Tx:27.2 | In your release from | sacrifice is his made manifest and shown to be his own. But every |
| Tx:27.21 | Who then fears healing? Only those to whom their brother's | sacrifice and pain are seen to represent their own serenity. Their |
| Tx:27.21 | bound. And sickness is desired to prevent a shift of balance in the | sacrifice. How could the Holy Spirit be deterred an instant, even |
| Tx:27.42 | An honest answer asks no | sacrifice because it answers questions truly asked. The questions of |
| Tx:27.42 | questions truly asked. The questions of the world but ask of whom is | sacrifice demanded, asking not if sacrifice is meaningful at all. And |
| Tx:27.42 | of the world but ask of whom is sacrifice demanded, asking not if | sacrifice is meaningful at all. And so unless the answer tells “of |
| Tx:28.15 | What has been lost, to see the causeless not? And where is | sacrifice, when memory of God has come to take the place of loss? |
| Tx:28.46 | belief that there is joy in separation, and its giving up would be a | sacrifice. But miracles are the result when you do not insist on |
| Tx:29.4 | “sacrifice” of love. The body saves you, for it gets away from total | sacrifice and gives you time in which to build again your separate |
| Tx:29.7 | It is not love that asks a | sacrifice. But fear demands the sacrifice of love, for in love's |
| Tx:29.7 | It is not love that asks a sacrifice. But fear demands the | sacrifice of love, for in love's presence fear cannot abide. For hate |

| Tx:29.17 | He really is. What, then, becomes of you, for it is you of whom the | sacrifice is asked? For He is told that part of Him belongs to Him no |
| Tx:29.17 | For He is told that part of Him belongs to Him no longer. He must | sacrifice your self, and in His sacrifice are you made more, and He |
| Tx:29.17 | belongs to Him no longer. He must sacrifice your self, and in His | sacrifice are you made more, and He is lessened by the loss of you. |
| Tx:29.46 | For you believe that you can suffer lack, and lack is death. To | sacrifice is to give up and thus to be without and to have suffered |

| Tx:30.65 | is all you ever wanted in your hearts. Give up the world! But not to | sacrifice. You never wanted it. What happiness have you sought here |
| Tx:30.71 | has not occurred. If pardon were unjustified, you would be asked to | sacrifice your rights when you return forgiveness for attack. But you |

| Tx:30.86 | the one who gains and him who loses. There could be no thought of | sacrifice apart from this idea. And it is this idea of different |
| Tx:30.87 | him and he with you. In symbols which you both can understand, the | sacrifice of meaning is undone. All sacrifice entails the loss of |
| Tx:30.87 | you both can understand, the sacrifice of meaning is undone. All | sacrifice entails the loss of your ability to see relationships among |
| Tx:31.30 | of pain and age, of grief and suffering. Here are the thoughts of | sacrifice preserved, for here guilt rules and orders that the world |
| Tx:31.32 | exacted from your brother or yourself. For God has said there is no | sacrifice that can be asked; there is no sacrifice that can be made. |

| Tx:20.44 | Creator of the universe should offer it to him and know it rests in | safety? He looks upon himself not as his Father knows him. And yet it |

| Tx:23.35 | deceive you. You cannot seek to harm him and be saved. Who can find | safety from attack by turning on himself? How can it matter what the |

| W1:13.3 | crowd it with images that do not exist. To the ego, illusions are | safety devices, as they must also be to you who equate yourself with |

| W1:55.4 | love to return to my awareness, I will see a world of peace and | safety and joy. It is this I choose to see in place of what I look on |
| W1:68.9 | protects you and loves you and which you love in return. Try to feel | safety surrounding you, hovering over you, and holding you up. Try to |
| W1:87.5 | afraid, and only when I try to attack can I believe that my eternal | safety is threatened. Today I will recognize that all this has not |
| W1:98.3 | The guiltless have no fear, for they are safe and recognize their | safety. They do not appeal to magic nor invent escapes from fancied |
| W1:102.3 | God's Will has placed in you. Here is your home, and here your | safety is. Here is your peace, and here there is no fear. Here is |
| W1:109.1 | in the midst of all the turmoil born of clashing dreams. We ask for | safety and for happiness, although we seem to look on danger and on |
| W1:109.2 | will bring to you the rest and quiet, peace and stillness, and the | safety and the happiness you seek. “I rest in God.” This thought has |
| W1:121.1 | meaning in a world which seems to make no sense. Here is the way to | safety in apparent dangers which appear to threaten you at every turn |
| W1:122.1 | of worth and beauty that transcends the world? Do you want care and | safety and the warmth of sure protection always? Do you want a |
| W1:122.8 | Open your eyes today, and look upon a happy world of | safety and of peace. Forgiveness is the means by which it comes to |
| W1:131.1 | for permanence in the impermanent, for love where there is none, for | safety in the midst of danger, immortality within the darkness of the |
| W1:131.3 | and while you seek for life you ask for death. You look for | safety and security while in your heart you pray for danger and |
| W1:135.4 | fear, increasing fear as each defense is made. You think it offers | safety. Yet it speaks of fear made real and terror justified. Is it |
| W1:153.1 | to take away again, attend this lesson well. The world provides no | safety. It is rooted in attack and all its “gifts” of seeming safety |
| W1:153.1 | no safety. It is rooted in attack and all its “gifts” of seeming | safety are illusory deceptions. It attacks and then attacks again. No |
| W1:153.5 | defense by still more fantasies and dreams by which illusions of his | safety comfort him. |
| W1:153.9 | And in defenselessness we stand secure, serenely certain of our | safety now, sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill our chosen |
| W1:162.3 | as he goes to sleep. His dreams are happy and his rest secure, his | safety certain and his body healed because he sleeps and wakens with |
| W1:165.3 | Who would deny his | safety and his peace, his joy, his healing and his peace of mind, his |
| W1:166.4 | Here is the only home he thinks he knows. Here is the only | safety he believes that he can find. Without the world he made is he |
| W1:170.6 | attributes of love bestowed upon its “enemy.” For fear becomes your | safety and protector of your peace, to which you turn for solace and |
| W1:170.8 | need not defy his power. He has none. And those who see in him their | safety have no guardian, no strength to call upon in danger, and no |
| W1:172.2 | [153] In my defenselessness my | safety lies. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:191.5 | the worldly thoughts that hold it prisoner. And from this place of | safety and escape, you will return and set it free. For he who can |

| W2:WIB.1 | love. Identifying with its safety, he regards himself as what his | safety is. How else could he be certain he remains within the body, |
| W2:WIB.5 | Whatever it may be, you will believe that it is one with you. Your | safety lies in truth and not in lies. Love is your safety. Fear does |
| W2:WIB.5 | with you. Your safety lies in truth and not in lies. Love is your | safety. Fear does not exist. Identify with love, and you are safe. |

| W2:WIRW.3 | death, attack, and murder? What can it perceive surrounding it but | safety, love, and joy? What is there it would choose to be condemned, |
| W2:WIE.2 | dreams, its enemies who seek to murder it before it can ensure its | safety by attacking them. |
| W2:337.1 | My sinlessness ensures me perfect peace, eternal | safety, everlasting love, freedom forever from all thought of loss, |
| W2:348.1 | What need have I for anger or for fear? Surrounding me is perfect | safety. Can I be afraid when Your eternal promise goes with me? |

| Tx:6.39 | and, above all, projecting and being. This is because, as we have | said before, every idea begins in the mind of the thinker and extends |

| Tx:6.72 | the Holy Spirit's first lesson was “to have, give all to all.” We | said that this is apt to increase conflict temporarily, and we can |

| Tx:7.1 | since He created you, but you did not create Him. We have already | said that only in this respect your creative power differs from His. |
| Tx:7.6 | joy may be complete, because the Kingdom of God is whole. We have | said that the last step in the reawakening of knowledge is taken by |
| Tx:7.7 | neither to Him nor to what He created. The “last step” that God [was | said to] take was therefore true in the beginning, is true now, and |
| Tx:7.17 | That is why the Holy Spirit is a lesson in remembering. We | said before that He teaches remembering and forgetting, but the |

| Tx:7.105 | We | said before that you are the Will of God. His Will is not an idle |

| Tx:8.77 | how you feel. When we said that the ego does not know anything, we | said the one thing about the ego that is wholly true. But there is a |

| Tx:9.50 | between miracle impulses and ego-alien beliefs of its own. We once | said that the ego is aware of threat, but does not make distinctions |
| Tx:9.79 | of you can heal you because the value of God's Son is one. When I | said, “My peace I give unto you,” I meant it. Peace came from God |
| Tx:9.96 | the Son is helpless without the Father, Who alone is his help. We | said before that of yourselves you can do nothing, but you are not of |

| Tx:12.10 | yourself and the Atonement, which you do not yet realize. We have | said that no one will countenance fear if he recognizes it. Yet in |
| Tx:12.26 | only aspect of time that is meaningful. You will remember that we | said its emphasis on guilt enables it to ensure its continuity by |
| Tx:12.33 | We have | said that you have but two emotions, love and fear. One is changeless |
| Tx:13.60 | undone, for when you look at it in simple honesty, it is undone. We | said before, “Be not content with nothing,” for you have believed |
| Tx:14.22 | You know not what you say, and so you know not what is | said to you. Yet your Interpreter perceives the meaning in your alien |
| Tx:14.57 | need for love, you must give it because of what you are. Long ago we | said this course will teach you what you are, restoring to you your |
| Tx:15.46 | needs and acquired methods for meeting them on your own terms. We | said before that to limit love to part of the Sonship is to bring |

| Tx:17.28 | is impossible to create, yet it is possible to make happy. We have | said repeatedly that the Holy Spirit would not deprive you of your |
| Tx:18.20 | means for waking. You would have used them to remain asleep. We once | said that the first change, before dreams disappear, is that your |
| Tx:19.1 | We | said before that when a situation has been dedicated wholly to truth, |
| Tx:19.1 | the wholeness of the dedication can be safely assumed. Yet we also | said that peace without faith will never be attained, for what is |
| Tx:19.3 | accordingly; seeing what is not there, hearing what truth has never | said, and behaving insanely, being imprisoned by insanity. |
| Tx:19.22 | It can indeed be | said the ego made its world on sin. Only in such a world could |

| Tx:21.24 | We have already | said that wishful thinking is how the ego deals with what it wants to |

| Tx:30.38 | happiness and that, by limiting, is all attained. It is as if you | said, “I have no need of everything. This little thing I want, and it |
| Tx:31.32 | ancient penalty exacted from your brother or yourself. For God has | said there is no sacrifice that can be asked; there is no sacrifice |
| Tx:31.65 | nor what you choose to feel or think or wish. For God Himself has | said, “Your will be done.” And it is done to you accordingly. |

| Tx:8.96 | truth but only in it. Reality is the only safety. Your will is your | salvation because it is the same as God's. The separation is nothing |
| Tx:8.112 | Salvation is of your brother. The Holy Spirit extends from your mind | |
| Tx:9.15 | the sign of your willingness to follow the Holy Spirit's plan of | salvation in recognition of the fact that you do not know what it is. |
| Tx:9.16 | unfortunate and that it is a remarkably poor choice as a teacher of | salvation. Yet this question, ridiculous as it seems, is really the |
| Tx:9.38 | God's Will is your | salvation. Would He not have given you the means to find it? If He |
| Tx:9.38 | it. Your brothers are everywhere. You do not have to seek far for | salvation. Every minute and every second gives you a chance to save |
| Tx:9.75 | He has given it to you. Do not be afraid of it, because it is your | salvation. What Comforter can there be for the sick Children of God |
| Tx:10.31 | Never forget that the Sonship is your | salvation, for the Sonship is your Soul. As God's creation, it is |

| Tx:10.53 | ego will always substitute chaos for meaning, for if separation is | salvation, harmony is threat. |
| Tx:10.73 | for you out of what you have made, and to perceive only this is | salvation because it is the recognition that reality is only what is |
| Tx:11.7 | How simple, then, is God's plan for | salvation. There is but one response to reality, for reality evokes |
| Tx:11.25 | do. The very fact of his insistence should tell you that he believes | salvation lies in it. If you insist on refusing and experience a |
| Tx:11.25 | a quick response of opposition, you are believing that your | salvation lies in not doing it. You, then, are making the same |
| Tx:11.25 | and what you invest in is always related to your notion of | salvation. The question is always two-fold—first, what is to be |
| Tx:11.27 | to do so is to deny yourself and impoverish both. He is asking for | salvation, as you are. Poverty is of the ego and never of God. No |
| Tx:11.28 | Salvation is for the mind, and it is attained through peace. This is | |
| Tx:11.28 | than love arises from a confusion about the “what” and the “how” of | salvation, and this is the only answer. Never lose sight of this, and |
| Tx:11.28 | poor, who do not understand that they dwell in abundance and that | salvation is come. |
| Tx:11.30 | ego identification, for everyone believes that identification is | salvation. Yet consider what has happened, for thoughts do have |
| Tx:11.34 | Yet this world is only in the mind of its maker along with his real | salvation. Do not believe it is outside of yourself, for only by |
| Tx:11.34 | and where it began it must end. For in this same place also lies | salvation. The altar of God where Christ abideth is there. |
| Tx:11.36 | it this way; on the contrary, everyone who believes that the ego is | salvation is intensely engaged in the search for love. Yet the ego, |
| Tx:11.87 | For no father could subject his children to this as the price of | salvation and be loving. Love does not kill to save. If it did, |
| Tx:11.87 | be loving. Love does not kill to save. If it did, attack would be | salvation, and this is the ego's interpretation, not God's. Only the |
| Tx:11.88 | for it teaches him that, never having sinned, he has no need of | salvation. |
| Tx:11.98 | attack, being fully committed to the insane notion that attack is | salvation. And you who cherish guilt must also believe it, for how |
| Tx:12.4 | are its “enemies” because, by not valuing its interpretation of | salvation, they are in an excellent position to let it go. They have |
| Tx:12.12 | to answer His call and leap into Heaven. You believe that attack is | salvation to prevent you from this. For still deeper than the ego's |
| Tx:12.29 | with your own past? For you are meeting no one, and the sharing of | salvation, which makes the encounter holy, is excluded from your |
| Tx:12.30 | and it presents the opportunities for the holy encounters in which | salvation can be found. |
| Tx:12.31 | would release you from it. It is His interpretation of the means of | salvation which you must learn to accept if you would share His goal |
| Tx:12.31 | which you must learn to accept if you would share His goal of | salvation for you. |
| Tx:12.52 | Now is the time of | salvation, for now is the release from time. Reach out to all your |
| Tx:12.68 | concept if it is left to you. The ego wants to have things for | salvation, for possession is its law. Possession for its own sake is |
| Tx:12.69 | it will be wrenched and hurled into the dust. For where the ego sees | salvation, it sees separation, and so you lose whatever you have |
| Tx:12.75 | and to yourself. This is the only real need to be fulfilled in time. | Salvation from the world lies only here. My peace I give you. Take it |
| Tx:13.21 | release. No one who would unite in any way with anyone for his own | salvation will find it in that strange relationship. It is not |
| Tx:13.23 | means to “solve” the past and still to see them as they really are? | Salvation is not found by those who use their brothers to resolve |
| Tx:13.23 | brothers to resolve problems which are not there. You wanted not | salvation in the past. Would you impose your idle wishes on the |
| Tx:13.23 | Would you impose your idle wishes on the present and hope to find | salvation now? |
| Tx:13.43 | God is sure, and what He wills is as sure as He is. You will learn | salvation, because you will learn how to save. It will not be |
| Tx:13.43 | to exempt yourself from what the Holy Spirit wills to teach you. | Salvation is as sure as God. His certainty suffices. Learn that even |
| Tx:13.46 | possibility that the plan the Holy Spirit offers to everyone for the | salvation of everyone will not be perfectly accomplished. You will be |
| Tx:13.64 | Yet this entails the recognition that guilt is interference, not | salvation, and serves no useful function at all. |
| Tx:13.73 | they are guilty will respond to guilt because they think it is | salvation and will not refuse to see it and side with it. [They |
| Tx:13.76 | has set for his Atonement, relinquishing his own. You know not of | salvation, for you do not understand it. Make no decisions about what |
| Tx:13.77 | you undertake alone but signifies that you would define what | salvation is and what you would be saved from. The Holy Spirit knows |
| Tx:13.77 | is and what you would be saved from. The Holy Spirit knows that all | salvation is escape from guilt. You have no other “enemy,” and |
| Tx:13.78 | Let Him, therefore, be the only Guide that you would follow to | salvation. He knows the way and leads you gladly on it. With Him you |
| Tx:13.78 | peace as surely as you made the wrong decision in ever thinking that | salvation lay in you alone. Salvation is of Him to Whom God gave it |
| Tx:13.78 | the wrong decision in ever thinking that salvation lay in you alone. | Salvation is of Him to Whom God gave it for you. He has not forgotten |
| Tx:13.78 | Forget Him not, and He will make every decision for you, for your | salvation, and the peace of God in you. |
| Tx:14.27 | what you do not want to what you do. You will realize that | salvation must come to you this way if you consider what dissociation |
| Tx:15.11 | And Heaven will not change, for the birth into the holy present is | salvation from change. Change is an illusion, taught by those who |
| Tx:15.12 | Could you not give so short a time to the Holy Spirit for your | salvation? He asks no more, for He has no need of more. It takes far |
| Tx:15.33 | If you are wholly willing to leave | salvation to the plan of God and unwilling to attempt to grasp for |
| Tx:15.33 | plan of God and unwilling to attempt to grasp for peace yourself, | salvation will be given you. Yet think not you can substitute your |
| Tx:15.36 | as you want it will you bring it nearer. Think not that you can find | salvation in your own way and have it. Give over every plan that you |
| Tx:15.36 | way and have it. Give over every plan that you have made for your | salvation in exchange for God's. His will content you, and there is |
| Tx:15.37 | His host abide in perfect freedom. Every allegiance to a plan of | salvation that is apart from Him diminishes the value of His Will for |
| Tx:15.41 | that it is possible to harbor thoughts you would not share and that | salvation lies in keeping your thoughts to yourself alone. For in |
| Tx:15.46 | For separation is the source of guilt, and to appeal to it for | salvation is to believe you are alone. To be alone is to be guilty. |
| Tx:15.47 | believe that special relationships, with special love, can offer you | salvation is the belief that separation is salvation. For it is the |
| Tx:15.47 | love, can offer you salvation is the belief that separation is | salvation. For it is the complete equality of the Atonement in which |
| Tx:15.47 | salvation. For it is the complete equality of the Atonement in which | salvation lies. How can you decide that special aspects of the |
| Tx:15.77 | who believe that communication is damnation that communication is | salvation. And He will do so, for the power of God in Him and you is |
| Tx:15.79 | He will teach you to remember that forgiveness is not loss but your | salvation. And that in complete forgiveness, in which you recognize |
| Tx:15.96 | gets nothing. Sacrifice is so essential to your thought system that | salvation apart from sacrifice means nothing to you. Your confusion |
| Tx:15.100 | of the decision just as it is that makes the decision so easy! | Salvation is simple, being of God and therefore very easy to |
| Tx:15.105 | And as long as you would retain the deprivation, attack becomes | salvation, and sacrifice becomes love. |
| Tx:16.30 | is undertaken solely to offset the hate but not to let it go. Your | salvation will rise clearly before your open eyes as you look on |
| Tx:16.56 | Salvation lies in the simple fact that illusions are not fearful | |
| Tx:16.67 | Be glad you have escaped the mockery of | salvation which the ego offered you and look not back with longing on |
| Tx:16.73 | special relationship, which binds you to it and would teach you that | salvation is past and that you must return to the past to find |
| Tx:16.73 | that salvation is past and that you must return to the past to find | salvation. There is no fantasy which does not contain the dream of |
| Tx:16.75 | Against the ego's insane notion of | salvation, the Holy Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said |
| Tx:16.75 | truth. The holy instant is the opposite of the ego's fixed belief in | salvation through vengeance for the past. In the holy instant, it is |
| Tx:16.79 | to restore the Kingdom to you and to place all your investment in | salvation in your relationship with Him. |
| Tx:17.6 | attempt. And you are holding both of you away from truth and from | salvation. As you forgive him, you restore to truth what was denied |
| Tx:17.9 | is given, complete and wholly perfect. No one but Him Who planned | salvation could complete it thus. The real world, in its loveliness, |
| Tx:17.12 | And there he knows that he has always rested there in peace. Even | salvation will become a dream and vanish from his mind. For salvation |
| Tx:17.12 | Even salvation will become a dream and vanish from his mind. For | salvation is the end of dreams and with the closing of the dream will |
| Tx:17.12 | Who awake in Heaven could dream that there could ever be need of | salvation? |
| Tx:17.13 | How much do you want | salvation? It will give you the real world, trembling with readiness |
| Tx:17.43 | of the holy instant in living in this world. Like everything about | salvation, the holy instant is a practical device, witnessed to by |
| Tx:17.51 | You are very new in the ways of | salvation and think you have lost your way. Your way is lost, but |
| Tx:17.52 | all it needs now is your blessing that you may see that in it rests | salvation. Condemn salvation not, for it has come to you. And welcome |
| Tx:17.52 | your blessing that you may see that in it rests salvation. Condemn | salvation not, for it has come to you. And welcome it together, for |
| Tx:17.73 | strong. Use not your faithlessness against it, for it calls you to | salvation and to peace. |
| Tx:17.78 | you to realize what your lack of faith in him must mean to you. His | salvation is your only purpose. See only this in every situation, and |
| Tx:18.21 | He gave the gift. He uses everyone who calls on Him as means for the | salvation of everyone. And He will waken everyone through you who |
| Tx:18.29 | with me in the holy light of your relationship, is your need for | salvation. Would I not give you what you gave to me? For when you |
| Tx:18.30 | You who are now the bringers of | salvation have the function of bringing light to darkness. The |
| Tx:18.38 | for the escape from guilt has been to bring Atonement to it and make | salvation fearful. And it is only fear that you will add if you |
| Tx:18.39 | what it is. Yet we have emphasized that you need understand nothing. | Salvation is easy just because it asks nothing that you cannot give |
| Tx:18.41 | relationship, the Holy Spirit's teaching, and all the means by which | salvation is accomplished would have no purpose. For they are all but |
| Tx:18.53 | not have the instruments of separation reinterpreted as means for | salvation and used for purposes of love? Would you not welcome and |
| Tx:19.13 | faithlessness had driven you apart, and so you did not recognize | salvation in each other. Yet faith unites you in the holiness you |
| Tx:19.17 | be not confused with “sin,” and it is this distinction which makes | salvation possible. For error can be corrected, and the wrong made |
| Tx:19.41 | of dust, a tiny seeming barrier, stand between your brothers and | salvation? And yet, it is this little remnant of attack you cherish |
| Tx:19.43 | Would you thrust | salvation away from the giver of salvation? For such have you become. |
| Tx:19.43 | Would you thrust salvation away from the giver of | salvation? For such have you become. Peace could no more depart from |
| Tx:19.43 | of God. Peace will flow across it and join you without hindrance. | Salvation cannot be withheld from you. It is your purpose. You cannot |
| Tx:19.53 | share them lovingly with you. Be not afraid of them. They offer you | salvation. Theirs are the messages of safety, for they see the world |
| Tx:19.56 | ego sin means death, and so Atonement is achieved through murder. | Salvation is looked upon as a way by which the Son of God was killed |
| Tx:19.57 | no greater value than yours; no better means for communication of | salvation, but not its Source. No one can die for anyone, and death |
| Tx:19.61 | really given you that justifies your strange belief that in it lies | salvation? Do you not see that this is the belief in death? Here is |
| Tx:19.63 | accomplishment? You want communion, not the feast of fear. You want | salvation, not the pain of guilt. And you want your Father, not a |
| Tx:19.66 | relationship truth proclaims the truth, and love looks on itself. | Salvation flows from deep within the home you offered to my Father |
| Tx:19.86 | to grow into a mighty force for God, is very near. The infancy of | salvation is carefully guarded by love, preserved from every thought |
| Tx:19.90 | your mind, peace must still surmount a final obstacle after which is | salvation completed and the Son of God entirely restored to sanity. |
| Tx:19.101 | to keep what seems to be yourself unharmed. Yet in his hands is your | salvation. You see his madness, which you hate because you share it. |
| Tx:19.102 | his sins against him or accept his gift to you? Is this giver of | salvation your friend or enemy? Choose which he is, remembering that |
| Tx:19.103 | share His holiness. This “enemy,” this “stranger” still offers you | salvation as His Friend. The “enemies” of Christ, the worshipers of |
| Tx:19.108 | but known. And knowing, nothing in the plan God has established for | salvation will be left undone. This is the journey's purpose, without |
| Tx:19.109 | appear to be. As he is seen as either the giver of guilt or of | salvation, so will his offering be seen and so received. The |
| Tx:20.4 | celebrate his holiness along with me. For Easter is the time of your | salvation, along with mine. |
| Tx:20.29 | lies in him to overlook all your mistakes, and therein lies his own | salvation. And so it is with yours. [Salvation is a lesson in giving, |
| Tx:20.32 | all the same. Yet those who know that they are all the same need not | salvation. And each one finds his savior when he is ready to look |
| Tx:20.35 | ask yourself if it is possible that God would have a plan for your | salvation that does not work. Once you accept His plan as the one |
| Tx:20.56 | one he chose before. And here can he learn relationships are his | salvation and not his doom. You who are learning this may still be |
| Tx:20.66 | you ask, forget not that his sinlessness is your escape from fear. | Salvation is the Holy Spirit's goal. The means is vision. For what |
| Tx:20.69 | of purpose, shared with the Holy Spirit and at one with Him on what | salvation is. Be willing, then, to see your brother sinless that |
| Tx:20.72 | you, you will never see. Your holy relationship, the source of your | salvation, will be deprived of meaning, and its most holy purpose |
| Tx:21.13 | Spirit for which He gives you everything; the very little on which | salvation rests; the tiny change of mind by which the crucifixion is |
| Tx:21.14 | only this, but mean it with no reservations, for here the power of | salvation lies: |
| Tx:21.17 | gift is given you the power to release your savior that he may give | salvation unto you. |
| Tx:21.20 | is. And very simply see in it the whole exchange of separation for | salvation. All that the ego is, is an idea that it is possible that |
| Tx:21.53 | God's plan for your | salvation could not have been established without your will and your |
| Tx:21.54 | what is so, for this must have an answer if the plan of God for your | salvation is complete. And it must be complete because its Source |
| Tx:21.65 | choose to let yourself be healed, in that same instant is his whole | salvation seen as complete with yours. Reason is given you to |
| Tx:21.66 | That you are joined is your | salvation—the gift of Heaven, not the gift of fear. Does Heaven |
| Tx:22.26 | Only your thoughts have been impossible. | Salvation cannot be. It is impossible to look upon your savior as |
| Tx:22.31 | Reason is not | salvation in itself, but it makes way for peace and brings you to a |
| Tx:22.31 | it makes way for peace and brings you to a state of mind in which | salvation can be given you. Sin is a block, set like a heavy gate, |
| Tx:22.36 | you believe can sin? Beyond his errors is his holiness and your | salvation. You gave him not his holiness but tried to see your sins |
| Tx:22.36 | Can you be saved by making sinful the one whose holiness is your | salvation? |
| Tx:22.42 | have corrected for you, for in his sight your loveliness is his | salvation which he would protect from harm. And each will be the |
| Tx:23.6 | bestows upon it! What can you value more than this? For here is your | salvation and your freedom. And it must be complete if you would |
| Tx:23.25 | the “enemy” Who caused it and to Whom appeal is useless. Nor can | salvation lie within the Son, whose every aspect seems to be at war |
| Tx:23.25 | now is conflict made inevitable and beyond the help of God. And now | salvation must remain impossible because the savior has become the |
| Tx:23.30 | The substitute for love, born of your enmity to one another, must be | salvation. It has no substitute, and there is only one. And all your |
| Tx:23.31 | is here you look for meaning. These are the laws you made for your | salvation. They hold in place the substitute for Heaven which you |
| Tx:23.33 | throne of love, its dying conqueror, its substitute, the savior from | salvation. How lovely do the laws of fear make death appear! Give |
| Tx:23.35 | condemnation is a blessing? Who makes his savior powerless and finds | salvation? Let not the form of the attack on him deceive you. You |
| Tx:23.43 | Salvation is no compromise of any kind. To compromise is to accept | |
| Tx:23.43 | but part of what you want—to take a little and give up the rest. | Salvation gives up nothing. It is complete for everyone. Let the idea |
| Tx:23.43 | where compromise has been accepted, for compromise is the belief | salvation is impossible. It would maintain you can attack a little, |
| Tx:23.44 | believe that compromise is possible. They do not see that, if it is, | salvation is attack. Yet it is certain the belief that salvation is |
| Tx:23.44 | if it is, salvation is attack. Yet it is certain the belief that | salvation is impossible cannot uphold a quiet, calm assurance it has |
| Tx:24.13 | of littleness and be released from limits? You have a function in | salvation. Its pursuit will bring you joy. But the pursuit of |
| Tx:24.13 | of specialness must bring you pain. Here is a goal that would defeat | salvation and thus run counter to the Will of God. To value |
| Tx:24.18 | all the sins you think you placed between him and the function of | salvation given him for you. Nor will you change his function, any |
| Tx:24.24 | your special kingdom, apart from God, away from truth and from | salvation. |
| Tx:24.25 | offer it to you when you were ready to accept His plan for your | salvation in place of yours. How could this readiness be reached save |
| Tx:24.30 | they wait for all illusions to be brought to them and left behind. | Salvation challenges not even death. And God Himself, Who knows that |
| Tx:24.31 | for you. Ask not He enter this. The way is barred to love and to | salvation. Yet if you would release your brother from the depths of |
| Tx:24.34 | is death enthroned as savior; crucifixion is now redemption, and | salvation can only mean destruction of the world, except yourself. |
| Tx:24.38 | Long ago we said consider not the means by which | salvation is attained nor how to reach it. But do consider, and |
| Tx:24.39 | dream in which God is bereft of what He loves and you remain beyond | salvation. Only this is certain in this shifting world which has no |
| Tx:24.47 | You who would be content with specialness and seek | salvation in a war with love, consider this: the holy Lord of Heaven |
| Tx:24.54 | is not. Within your brother's holiness, the perfect frame for your | salvation and the world's, is set the shining memory of Him in Whom |
| Tx:24.55 | by still one more denial of Christ in him. And where is your | salvation if he is but a body? Where is your peace but in his |
| Tx:25.22 | may esteem yourself and him. To each of you is given the power of | salvation that escape from darkness into light be yours to share; |
| Tx:25.40 | save himself along with him. Forgiven by you, your savior offers you | salvation. Condemned by you, he offers death to you. In everyone you |
| Tx:25.46 | to heal instead of harm. To each He gives a special function in | salvation he alone can fill—a part for only him. Nor is the plan |
| Tx:25.47 | means the Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness from sin into | salvation. Forgiveness is for all. But when it rests on all, it is |
| Tx:25.48 | brother and himself and thus become a means to save instead of lose. | Salvation is no more than a reminder this world is not your home; its |
| Tx:25.48 | he chose to hurt himself did God appoint to be the means for his | salvation from the very instant that the choice was made. His special |
| Tx:25.49 | You wanted it, and it is given you. All that you made can serve | salvation easily and well. The Son of God can make no choice the Holy |
| Tx:25.49 | one another. Take it gently then from one another's hand, and let | salvation be perfectly fulfilled in both of you. Do this one thing, |
| Tx:25.57 | It would be madness to entrust | salvation to the insane. Because He is not mad has God appointed One |
| Tx:25.57 | saner world to meet the sight of everyone who chose insanity as his | salvation. To this One is given the choice of form most suitable to |
| Tx:25.61 | Salvation is rebirth of the idea no one can lose for anyone to gain. | |
| Tx:25.61 | sin must be impossible if this is true. This is the rock on which | salvation rests, the vantage point from which the Holy Spirit gives |
| Tx:25.62 | at any cost. No one can suffer for the Will of God to be fulfilled. | Salvation is His Will because you share it. Not for you alone but for |
| Tx:25.63 | The Holy Spirit can use all that you give to Him for your | salvation. But He cannot use what you withhold, for He cannot take it |
| Tx:25.64 | Here is the only principle | salvation needs. Nor is it necessary that your faith in it be strong, |
| Tx:25.64 | beliefs opposed to it. You have no fixed allegiance. But remember | salvation is not needed by the saved. You are not called upon to do |
| Tx:25.65 | There is a kind of justice in | salvation of which the world knows nothing. To the world, justice and |
| Tx:25.79 | is fair. He does not fight against His Son's reluctance to perceive | salvation as a gift from Him. Yet would His justice not be satisfied |
| Tx:25.83 | and thus apart from healing. Who is there who can be separate from | salvation if its purpose is the end of specialness? Where is |
| Tx:25.84 | Salvation cannot seek to help God's Son be more unfair than he has | |
| Tx:25.86 | you give. Each one becomes an illustration of the law on which | salvation rests—that justice must be done to all if anyone is to be |
| Tx:26.20 | together, and only one continues past the gate where Oneness is. | Salvation is a borderland where place and time and choice have |
| Tx:26.22 | Salvation stops just short of Heaven, for only perception needs | |
| Tx:26.22 | Salvation stops just short of Heaven, for only perception needs | salvation. Heaven was never lost and so cannot be saved. Yet who can |
| Tx:26.56 | Salvation, perfect and complete, asks but a little wish that what is | |
| Tx:26.61 | is not release. God's Son could never be content with less than full | salvation and escape from guilt. For otherwise he still demands that |
| Tx:26.64 | because his Father willed that it be so. And in your hands does all | salvation lie, to be both offered and received as one. |
| Tx:26.69 | to be one in which you sacrifice and suffer loss. You see eventual | salvation, not immediate results. |
| Tx:26.70 | Salvation is immediate. Unless you so perceive it, you will be afraid | |
| Tx:26.70 | In this form is the error still obscured that is the source of fear. | Salvation would wipe out the space you see between you still and let |
| Tx:26.77 | your call! And think how holy he must be when in him sleeps your own | salvation with his freedom joined! However much you wish he be |
| Tx:26.90 | dim and threatening, and not a trace of all the happy sparkle that | salvation brought can you perceive to lighten up your way. And so you |
| Tx:27.16 | errors. Let yourself be healed that you may be forgiving, offering | salvation to your brother and yourself. A broken body shows the mind |
| Tx:27.20 | The world perceives it as a statement of the “fact” that your | salvation sacrifices his. The Holy Spirit knows your healing is the |
| Tx:27.60 | healed, because the suffering of the world has made it deaf to its | salvation and deliverance. |
| Tx:27.62 | has done to injure you. Here is the world's demented version of | salvation clearly shown. Like to a dream of punishment in which the |
| Tx:27.86 | The secret of | salvation is but this: that you are doing this unto yourself. No |
| Tx:27.89 | all of them are easily undone by but a single lesson truly learned. | Salvation is a secret you have kept but from yourself. The universe |
| Tx:28.24 | This is the separation's final step with which | salvation, which proceeds to go the other way, begins. This final |
| Tx:28.27 | the mind is free to make another choice instead. Beginning here, | salvation will proceed to change the course of every step in the |
| Tx:28.28 | What waits in perfect certainty beyond | salvation is not our concern. For you have barely started to allow |
| Tx:28.61 | but its opposite? There is no middle ground in any aspect of | salvation. You accept it wholly or accept it not. What is unseparated |
| Tx:29.2 | gap must bring to those who cherish it and think that it is their | salvation and their hope. |
| Tx:29.18 | failure to perceive that it is nothing. Yet its nothingness is your | salvation, from which you would flee. |
| Tx:29.20 | you depends his happiness. For who is savior but the one who gives | salvation? Thus he learns it must be his to give. Unless he gives, he |
| Tx:29.24 | waken and be sure his waking eyes will rest on you. And in his glad | salvation, you are saved. |
| Tx:29.38 | of madness and of murder, grief and loss. This is the “sacrifice” | salvation asks and gladly offers peace instead of this. |
| Tx:29.50 | And all the world becomes the means by which this idol can be saved. | Salvation thus appears to threaten life and offer death. |
| Tx:29.51 | It is not so. | Salvation seeks to prove there is no death, and only life exists. The |
| Tx:29.62 | a part of evil dreams where idols are your “true” identity and your | salvation from the judgment laid in terror and in guilt upon yourself. |
| Tx:29.64 | There can be no | salvation in the dream as you are dreaming it. For idols must be part |
| Tx:30.37 | share. God turns to you to ask the world be saved, for by your own | salvation it is healed. And no one walks upon the earth but must |
| Tx:30.55 | Salvation is a paradox indeed! What could it be except a happy dream? | |
| Tx:30.56 | of terror that you made. No more than this is asked. Be glad indeed | salvation asks so little, not so much. It asks for nothing in |
| Tx:30.56 | will and but restored to what he is. What could God's plan for his | salvation be, except a means to give him to Himself? |
| Tx:30.71 | unforgivable nor overlook a real attack that calls for punishment. | Salvation does not lie in being asked to make unnatural responses |
| Tx:30.76 | remain afraid to look within and find escape from every idol there. | Salvation rests on faith there cannot be some forms of guilt which |
| Tx:30.81 | you been deceived in him who has been given you to heal, for your | salvation and deliverance? |
| Tx:30.90 | cannot have the changelessness reality entails. The miracle attests | salvation from appearances by showing they can change. Your brother |
| Tx:31.1 | How simple is | salvation! All it says is what was never true is not true now and |
| Tx:31.2 | is a reason. But confuse it not with difficulty in the simple things | salvation asks you learn. It teaches but the very obvious. It merely |
| Tx:31.4 | of God is guilty, say not that you cannot learn the simple things | salvation teaches you! |
| Tx:31.17 | But hear the other, and you join with him, and in your answer is | salvation found. The voice you hear in him is but your own. What does |
| Tx:31.56 | believes that he must find the answer to the riddle of himself. | Salvation can be seen as nothing more than the escape from concepts. |
| Tx:31.61 | Yet in this learning is | salvation born. And what you are will tell you of Itself. |
| Tx:31.63 | Salvation is undoing. If you choose to see the body, you behold a | |
| Tx:31.63 | where so much change is seen, for who is worthy if he be but dust? | Salvation is undoing of all this. And constancy arises in the sight |
| Tx:31.63 | of all this. And constancy arises in the sight of those whose eyes | salvation has released from looking at the cost of keeping guilt |
| Tx:31.64 | Salvation does not ask that you behold the Spirit and perceive the | |
| Tx:31.64 | not understand how to behold a world apart from it. It is your world | salvation will undo and let you see another world your eyes could |
| Tx:31.68 | Learning is change. | Salvation does not seek to use a means as yet too alien to your |
| Tx:31.73 | another way. Would you not rather look upon yourself as needed for | salvation of the world instead of as salvation's enemy? |
| Tx:31.75 | part of true creation has the Lord of Love and Life entrusted all | salvation from the misery of hell. And to each one has He allowed the |
| Tx:31.76 | The veil across the face of Christ, the fear of God and of | salvation, and the love of guilt and death, they all are different |
| Tx:31.78 | —that he see his innocence in all he looks upon and sees his own | salvation everywhere. He holds no concept of himself between his calm |
| Tx:31.92 | close the door upon his dreams of weakness, opening the way to his | salvation and release. Choose once again what you would have him be, |
| Tx:31.93 | his eyes and let him look upon the Christ in him. My brothers in | salvation, do not fail to hear my voice and listen to my words. I ask |
| W1:14.3 | place. The early steps in this exchange, which can truly be called | salvation, can be quite difficult and even quite painful. Some of |
| W1:16.3 | In addition to never being idle, | salvation requires that you recognize that every thought you have |
| W1:19.2 | to this idea, you will yet understand that it must be true if | salvation is possible at all. And salvation must be possible because |
| W1:19.2 | understand that it must be true if salvation is possible at all. And | salvation must be possible because it is the Will of God. |
| W1:20.1 | of the crucial importance of the reversal of your thinking. The | salvation of the world depends on it. Yet you will not see if you |
| W1:20.2 | not misconstrue it as an effort to exert force or pressure. You want | salvation. You want to be happy. You want peace. You do not have them |
| W1:20.3 | is asked of you for a sign that our goal is of little worth. Can the | salvation of the world be a trivial purpose? And can the world be |
| W1:23.4 | from the world, but you can escape from its cause. This is what | salvation means, for where is the world you see when its cause is |
| W1:37.3 | Your holiness is the | salvation of the world. It lets you teach the world that it is one |
| W1:39.3 | We have already said that your holiness is the | salvation of the world. What about your own salvation? You cannot |
| W1:39.3 | your holiness is the salvation of the world. What about your own | salvation? You cannot give what you do not have. A savior must be |
| W1:39.3 | what you do not have. A savior must be saved. How else can he teach | salvation? Today's exercises will apply to you alone, recognizing |
| W1:39.3 | Today's exercises will apply to you alone, recognizing that your | salvation is crucial to the salvation of the world. As you apply the |
| W1:39.3 | to you alone, recognizing that your salvation is crucial to the | salvation of the world. As you apply the exercises to your own world, |
| W1:39.4 | the end of guilt and therefore the end of hell. Your holiness is the | salvation of the world and your own. How could you to whom your |
| W1:39.7 | subjects for today's exercises. It is imperative for your own | salvation that you see them differently. And it is your blessing on |
| W1:39.8 | search your mind for every thought that stands between you and your | salvation. Apply the idea for today to each one of them in this way: |
| W1:39.9 | thoughts about _____ are keeping me in hell. My holiness is my | salvation. |
| W1:39.11 | be stated so that its meaning remains that your holiness is your | salvation. |
| W1:39.15 | My holiness is my | salvation from this. |
| W1:43.2 | see. Perception has no function in God and does not exist. Yet in | salvation, which is the undoing of what never was, perception has a |
| W1:44.8 | you, and an awareness that you are attempting something very holy. | Salvation is your happiest accomplishment. It is also the only one |
| W1:46.2 | awareness of God. For this reason, forgiveness can truly be called | salvation. It is the means by which illusions disappear. |
| W1:55.4 | escape from the world by giving up attack thoughts. Herein lies my | salvation, and nowhere else. Without attack thoughts I could not see |
| W1:58.5 | [39] My holiness is my | salvation. Since my holiness saves me from all guilt, recognizing my |
| W1:58.5 | saves me from all guilt, recognizing my holiness is recognizing my | salvation. It is also recognizing the salvation of the world. Once I |
| W1:58.5 | my holiness is recognizing my salvation. It is also recognizing the | salvation of the world. Once I have accepted my holiness, nothing can |
| W1:61.2 | it for self-debasement. Humility consists of accepting your role in | salvation and in taking no other. It is not humility to insist that |
| W1:61.3 | on earth. It is a giant stride toward taking your rightful place in | salvation. It is a positive assertion of your right to be saved and |
| W1:61.9 | views of what you are and what your purpose is. As a bringer of | salvation, this is obviously necessary. This is the first of a number |
| W1:61.10 | You are the light of the world. God has built His plan for the | salvation of His Son on you. |
| W1:62.1 | return to your memory. Therefore in your forgiveness lies your | salvation. |
| W1:63.2 | no idle request that is being asked of you. You are asked to accept | salvation that it may be yours to give. |
| W1:63.4 | through my forgiveness. I am the means God has appointed for the | salvation of the world. |
| W1:63.6 | Remember that God's Son looks to you for his | salvation. And who but your Self must be His Son? |
| W1:64.2 | appearance of temptation becomes the spiritual recognition of | salvation. |
| W1:64.4 | The world's | salvation awaits your forgiveness, because through it does the Son of |
| W1:65.1 | The idea for today reaffirms your commitment to | salvation. It also reminds you that you have no function other than |
| W1:65.1 | of these thoughts are obviously necessary for a total commitment. | Salvation cannot be the only purpose you hold while you still cherish |
| W1:65.1 | you hold while you still cherish others. The full acceptance of | salvation as your only function necessarily entails two phases: the |
| W1:65.1 | only function necessarily entails two phases: the recognition of | salvation as your function and the relinquishment of all the other |
| W1:65.11 | conflicts once and for all, and the extent to which you really want | salvation in spite of your own foolish ideas to the contrary. |
| W1:66.11 | has taken in your mind and the many ways in which you tried to find | salvation under the ego's guidance. Did you find it? Were you happy? |
| W1:67.1 | the world's savior. This is why the Son of God looks to you for his | salvation. He is saved by what you are. |
| W1:69.1 | of your grievances is lifted, you are released with him. Share your | salvation now with him who stood beside you when you were in hell. He |
| W1:69.2 | trying to do. We are literally attempting to get in touch with the | salvation of the world. We are trying to see past the veil of |
| W1:69.3 | and real determination to reach what is dearer to us than all else. | Salvation is our only need. There is no other purpose here and no |
| W1:69.3 | is no other purpose here and no other function to fulfill. Learning | salvation is our only goal. Let us end the ancient search today by |
| W1:69.10 | what I have hidden. Yet I want to let it be revealed to me for my | salvation and the salvation of the world. |
| W1:69.10 | Yet I want to let it be revealed to me for my salvation and the | salvation of the world. |
| W1:70.1 | some form of the basic temptation not to believe the idea for today. | Salvation seems to come from anywhere except from you. So, too, does |
| W1:70.1 | you. So, too, does the source of guilt. You see neither guilt nor | salvation as in your own mind and nowhere else. When you realize that |
| W1:70.1 | an invention of your mind, you must also realize that guilt and | salvation must be in the same place. Understanding this you are saved. |
| W1:70.3 | accepted. And you must surely begin to see that accepting it is | salvation. It may not, however, be clear to you why the recognition |
| W1:70.3 | that guilt is in your own mind entails the realization that | salvation is there as well. |
| W1:70.8 | idea for today, adding a statement signifying your recognition that | salvation comes from nothing outside of you. You might put it this |
| W1:70.9 | My | salvation comes from me. It cannot come from anywhere else. |
| W1:70.10 | to reviewing some of the external places where you have looked for | salvation in the past—in other people, in possessions, in various |
| W1:70.11 | My | salvation cannot come from any of these things. My salvation comes |
| W1:70.11 | My salvation cannot come from any of these things. My | salvation comes from me, and only from me. |
| W1:70.12 | Now we will try again to reach the light in you, which is where your | salvation is. You cannot find it in the clouds that surround the |
| W1:70.13 | Since all illusions of | salvation have failed you, surely you do not want to remain in the |
| W1:70.13 | idols there when you could so easily walk on into the light of real | salvation. Try to pass the clouds by whatever means appeals to you. |
| W1:70.14 | short and frequent practice periods today, remind yourself that your | salvation comes from you and nothing but your own thoughts can hamper |
| W1:70.14 | are free from all external interference. You are in charge of your | salvation. You are in charge of the salvation of the world. Say, then: |
| W1:70.14 | You are in charge of your salvation. You are in charge of the | salvation of the world. Say, then: |
| W1:70.15 | My | salvation comes from me. Nothing outside of me can hold me back. |
| W1:70.15 | me. Nothing outside of me can hold me back. Within me is the world's | salvation and my own. |
| W1:71.1 | You may not realize that the ego has set up a plan for | salvation in opposition to God's. It is this plan in which you |
| W1:71.2 | The ego's plan for | salvation centers around holding grievances. It maintains that if |
| W1:71.2 | or event were changed, you would be saved. Thus the source of | salvation is constantly perceived as outside yourself. |
| W1:71.3 | I would be saved.” The change of mind that is necessary for | salvation is thus demanded of everyone and everything except yourself. |
| W1:71.4 | to be saved. According to this insane plan, any perceived source of | salvation is acceptable, provided that it will not work. This ensures |
| W1:71.5 | Such is the ego's plan for your | salvation. Surely you can see how it is in strict accord with the |
| W1:71.5 | find.” For what could more surely guarantee that you will not find | salvation than to channelize all your efforts in searching for it |
| W1:71.6 | God's plan for | salvation works simply because, by following His direction, you seek |
| W1:71.6 | works simply because, by following His direction, you seek for | salvation where it is. But if you are to succeed, as God promises you |
| W1:71.6 | purpose is divided, and you will attempt to follow two plans for | salvation which are diametrically opposed in all ways. The result can |
| W1:71.7 | Very simply. The idea for today is the answer. Only God's plan for | salvation will work. There can be no real conflict about this, |
| W1:71.8 | with no resolution possible. All things are possible to God. | Salvation must be yours because of His plan, which cannot fail. |
| W1:71.9 | each making equal contribution to the whole. God's plan for your | salvation will work, and other plans will not. Do not allow yourself |
| W1:71.12 | let Him tell you what needs to be done by you in His plan for your | salvation. He will answer you in proportion to your willingness to |
| W1:71.13 | the shorter practice periods tell yourself often that God's plan for | salvation, and only His, will work. Be alert to all temptation to |
| W1:71.14 | Holding grievances is the opposite of God's plan for | salvation. And only His plan will work. |
| W1:71.15 | to spend a half-minute or less than to remember the Source of your | salvation and to see it where it is. |
| W1:72.1 | While we have recognized that the ego's plan for | salvation is the opposite of God's, we have not yet emphasized that |
| W1:72.3 | so apparent why holding grievances is an attack on God's plan for | salvation. But let us consider the kinds of things which you are apt |
| W1:72.5 | If God is a body, what must His plan for | salvation be? What could it be but death? In trying to present |
| W1:72.6 | that he is a body and condemns him for it. And it asserts that his | salvation must be death, projecting this attack onto God and holding |
| W1:72.7 | The body is your only savior. It is the death of God and your | salvation. |
| W1:72.8 | center of your concept of yourself, you are attacking God's plan for | salvation and holding your grievances against Him and His creation, |
| W1:72.9 | We will try today to stop these senseless attacks on | salvation. We will try to welcome it instead. Your upside-down |
| W1:72.10 | as separate from the body is to end the attack on God's plan for | salvation and to accept it instead. And wherever His plan is |
| W1:72.11 | longer practice periods today is to become aware that God's plan for | salvation has already been accomplished in us. To achieve this goal, |
| W1:72.12 | What is | salvation, Father? I do not know. Tell me, that I may understand. |
| W1:72.14 | We have attacked God's plan for | salvation without waiting to hear what it is. We have shouted our |
| W1:72.14 | and stop our ears. Now we would see and hear and learn. “What is | salvation, Father?” Ask and you will be answered. Seek and you will |
| W1:72.15 | We are no longer asking the ego what | salvation is and where to find it. We are asking it of truth. Be |
| W1:72.16 | What is | salvation, Father? I do not know. Tell me, that I may understand. |
| W1:72.19 | Holding grievances is an attack on God's plan for | salvation. Let me accept it instead. What is salvation, Father? |
| W1:72.19 | on God's plan for salvation. Let me accept it instead. What is | salvation, Father? |
| W1:73.6 | of grievances is easily passed and cannot stand between you and your | salvation. The reason is very simple. Do you really want to be in |
| W1:73.7 | it is happiness you really want. Such is your will in truth. And so | salvation is your will as well. You want to succeed in what we are |
| W1:73.8 | We will succeed today if you remember that you will | salvation for yourself. You will to accept God's plan because you |
| W1:73.8 | no will that can really oppose it, and you do not want to do so. | Salvation is for you. Above all else you want the freedom to remember |
| W1:73.10 | our longer practice periods with the recognition that God's plan for | salvation, and only His, is wholly in accord with your will. It is |
| W1:76.1 | observed before how many senseless things have seemed to you to be | salvation. Each has imprisoned you with laws as senseless as itself. |
| W1:76.1 | by them. Yet to understand that this is so, you must first realize | salvation lies not there. While you would seek for it in things that |
| W1:76.1 | bind yourself to laws that make no sense. Thus do you seek to prove | salvation is where it is not. |
| W1:76.2 | never find it. The idea for today tells you once again how simple is | salvation. Look for it where it waits for you, and there it will be |
| W1:77.1 | offer miracles because you are one with God. Again, how simple is | salvation! It is merely a statement of your true Identity. It is this |
| W1:77.5 | the assurance that your request is granted. You have asked for the | salvation of the world and for your own. You have requested that you |
| W1:78.12 | throughout the day and take the role assigned to us as part of God's | salvation plan, and not our own. Temptation falls away when we allow |
| W1:80.1 | answered, and you have no other. Therefore you must be at peace. | Salvation does depend on recognizing this one problem and |
| W1:80.1 | understanding that it has been solved. One problem—one solution. | Salvation is accomplished. Freedom from conflict has been given you. |
| W1:80.1 | and you are ready to take your rightful place in God's plan for | salvation. |
| W1:80.2 | laid deception aside and seen the light of truth. You have accepted | salvation for yourself by bringing the problem to the answer. And you |
| W1:80.5 | the problem has one solution. It is in this that the simplicity of | salvation lies. It is because of this that it is guaranteed to work. |
| W1:R2.4 | into detours, illusions, and thoughts of death. You are dedicated to | salvation. Be determined each day not to leave your function |
| W1:85.5 | [70] My | salvation comes from me. Today I will recognize where my salvation |
| W1:85.5 | [70] My salvation comes from me. Today I will recognize where my | salvation is. It is in me because its Source is there. It has not |
| W1:85.7 | Let this not tempt me to look away from me for my | salvation. I will not let this interfere with my awareness of the |
| W1:85.7 | I will not let this interfere with my awareness of the Source of my | salvation. This has no power to remove salvation from me. |
| W1:85.7 | awareness of the Source of my salvation. This has no power to remove | salvation from me. |
| W1:86.2 | [71] Only God's plan for | salvation will work. It is senseless for me to search wildly about |
| W1:86.2 | will work. It is senseless for me to search wildly about for | salvation. I have seen it in many people and in many things, but when |
| W1:86.2 | it is. I will undertake no more idle seeking. Only God's plan for | salvation will work. And I will rejoice because His plan can never |
| W1:86.4 | God's plan for | salvation will save me from my perception of this. This is no |
| W1:86.4 | my perception of this. This is no exception in God's plan for my | salvation. Let me perceive this only in the light of God's plan for |
| W1:86.4 | salvation. Let me perceive this only in the light of God's plan for | salvation. |
| W1:86.5 | [72] Holding grievances is an attack on God's plan for | salvation. Holding grievances is an attempt to prove that God's plan |
| W1:86.5 | Holding grievances is an attempt to prove that God's plan for | salvation will not work. Yet only His plan will work. By holding |
| W1:86.5 | By holding grievances, I am therefore excluding my only hope of | salvation from my awareness. I would no longer defeat my own best |
| W1:86.5 | own best interests in this insane way. I would accept God's plan for | salvation and be happy. |
| W1:86.7 | I am choosing between misperception and | salvation as I look on this. If I see grounds for grievances in this, |
| W1:86.7 | grounds for grievances in this, I will not see the grounds for my | salvation. This calls for salvation, not attack. |
| W1:86.7 | in this, I will not see the grounds for my salvation. This calls for | salvation, not attack. |
| W1:88.2 | [75] The light has come. In choosing | salvation rather than attack, I merely choose to recognize what is |
| W1:88.2 | than attack, I merely choose to recognize what is already here. | Salvation is a decision made already. Attack and grievances are not |
| W1:89.5 | my illusions be replaced with truth according to God's plan for my | salvation. I would make no exceptions and no substitutes. I want all |
| W1:89.7 | I would not hold this grievance apart from my | salvation. Let our grievances be replaced by miracles, [name]. Beyond |
| W1:90.2 | the grievance be replaced. Today I would remember the simplicity of | salvation by reinforcing the lesson that there is one problem and one |
| W1:93.2 | That you have made mistakes is obvious. That you have sought | salvation in strange ways—have been deceived, deceiving, and afraid |
| W1:93.7 | Salvation requires the acceptance of but one thought—you are as God | |
| W1:93.17 | You can do much for the world's | salvation today. You can do much today to bring you closer to |
| W1:93.17 | You can do much today to bring you closer to accepting the part in | salvation which God has assigned to you. And you can do much today to |
| W1:94.1 | Today we continue with the one idea which brings complete | salvation; the one statement which makes all forms of temptation |
| W1:94.1 | world ever held are wiped away forever by this one idea. Here is | salvation accomplished. Here is sanity restored. |
| W1:95.6 | the ideal requirement for the most beneficial form of practice in | salvation. It is advantageous, however, for those whose motivation is |
| W1:96.7 | mean in truth? What purpose could it serve? What is it for? | Salvation cannot make illusions real and solve a problem that does |
| W1:96.8 | within your mind and in the Mind of God. The Holy Spirit holds | salvation in your mind and offers it the way to peace. Salvation is a |
| W1:96.8 | Spirit holds salvation in your mind and offers it the way to peace. | Salvation is a thought you share with God, because His Voice accepted |
| W1:96.8 | it for you and answered in your name that it was done. Thus is | salvation kept among the thoughts your Self holds dear and cherishes |
| W1:96.9 | five minute practicing will be a search for Him within your mind. | Salvation comes from this One Self through Him Who is the bridge |
| W1:96.12 | Salvation comes from my One Self. Its thoughts are mine to use. | |
| W1:96.14 | in their place. Here are your thoughts, the only ones you have. | Salvation is among them; find it there. |
| W1:96.17 | Each time today you tell your frantic mind | salvation comes from your One Self, you lay another treasure in your |
| W1:97.3 | and over, for the miracle makes use of time but is not ruled by it. | Salvation is a miracle, the first and last; the first that is the |
| W1:98.1 | position with the one. We dedicate ourselves to truth today and to | salvation as God planned it be. We will not argue it is something |
| W1:98.9 | I will accept my part in God's plan for | salvation. |
| W1:99.1 | Salvation and forgiveness are the same. They both imply that | |
| W1:99.2 | happened. The impossible becomes the thing you need forgiveness for, | salvation from. Salvation is the borderland between the truth and |
| W1:99.2 | becomes the thing you need forgiveness for, salvation from. | Salvation is the borderland between the truth and illusion. It |
| W1:99.7 | Salvation is your function with the One to Whom the plan was given. | |
| W1:99.8 | Salvation is my only function here. God still is Love, and this is | |
| W1:99.13 | Salvation is my only function here. Salvation and forgiveness are the | |
| W1:99.13 | Salvation is my only function here. | Salvation and forgiveness are the same. |
| W1:99.15 | of God. Forgive yourself the one you think you made. Forgiveness and | salvation are the same. Forgive what you have made, and you are saved. |
| W1:99.17 | Salvation is my only function here. God still is Love, and this is | |
| W1:99.19 | Salvation is my only function here. | |
| W1:100.1 | his Father, so your part in it completes your Father's plan. | Salvation must reverse the mad belief in separate thoughts and |
| W1:100.11 | every time you tell yourself you are essential to God's plan for the | salvation of the world. |
| W1:101.1 | the theme of happiness. This is a key idea in understanding what | salvation means. You still believe it asks for suffering as penance |
| W1:101.1 | sin. If sin is real, then punishment is just and cannot be escaped. | Salvation thus cannot be purchased but through suffering. |
| W1:101.3 | If sin is real, | salvation must be pain. Pain is the cost of sin, and suffering can |
| W1:101.3 | the cost of sin, and suffering can never be escaped if sin is real. | Salvation must be feared, for it will kill but slowly, taking |
| W1:101.3 | boon of death to victims who are little more than bones before | salvation is appeased. Its wrath is boundless, merciless, but wholly |
| W1:101.4 | Who would seek out such savage punishment? Who would not flee | salvation and attempt in every way he can to drown the Voice Which |
| W1:101.4 | to match the vicious wishes in which sin is born. If sin is real, | salvation has become your bitter enemy, the curse of God upon you who |
| W1:102.3 | safety is. Here is your peace, and here there is no fear. Here is | salvation. Here is rest at last. |
| W1:104.4 | practice periods today, the hourly five minutes given truth for your | salvation, should begin with this: |
| W1:106.1 | if you will listen with an open mind, which has not told you what | salvation is; then you will hear the mighty Voice of truth, quiet in |
| W1:106.6 | who wait to hear the Word that He will speak today. Be ready for | salvation. It is here and will today be given unto you. And you will |
| W1:106.7 | and thus become the joyous giver of what you received. Thus does | salvation start and thus it ends; when everything is yours, and |
| W1:108.5 | correction or that to forgive one brother wholly is enough to bring | salvation to all minds. For these are but some special cases of one |
| W1:R3.4 | mind about your goal. You are unwilling to cooperate in practicing | salvation only if it interferes with goals you hold more dear. When |
| W1:R3.7 | It will not fail. It is the Holy Spirit's chosen means for your | salvation. Since it has His trust, His means must surely merit yours |
| W1:113.3 | [96] | Salvation comes from my One Self. From my One Self, Whose knowledge |
| W1:113.3 | still remains Within my mind, I see God's perfect plan For my | salvation perfectly fulfilled. |
| W1:113.7 | Salvation comes from my One Self. | |
| W1:114.3 | [98] I will accept my part in God's plan for | salvation. What can my function be but to accept the Word of God, Who |
| W1:114.7 | I will accept my part in God's plan for | salvation. |
| W1:115.2 | [99] | Salvation is my only function here. My function here is to forgive |
| W1:115.3 | [100] My part is essential to God's plan for | salvation. I am essential to the plan of God for the salvation of the |
| W1:115.3 | God's plan for salvation. I am essential to the plan of God for the | salvation of the world. For He gave me His plan that I might save the |
| W1:115.5 | Salvation is my only function here. | |
| W1:115.7 | My part is essential to God's plan for | salvation. |
| W1:121.7 | your forgiveness that it has been saved from hell. And as you teach | salvation, you will learn. |
| W1:122.5 | no more. You will not find another one instead. God's plan for your | salvation cannot change, nor can it fail. Be thankful it remains |
| W1:122.6 | As you give, you will receive. There is no plan but this for the | salvation of the Son of God. Let us today rejoice that this is so, |
| W1:122.7 | is the answer! Do not turn away in aimless wandering again. Accept | salvation now. It is the gift of God and not the world. The world can |
| W1:122.7 | a mind which has received what God has given as its own. God wills | salvation be received today and that the intricacies of your dreams |
| W1:122.9 | our practicing today with hope and faith that this will be the day | salvation will be ours. Earnestly and gladly will we seek for it |
| W1:123.3 | Himself. Be grateful you are saved. Be glad you have a function in | salvation to fulfill. Be thankful that your value far transcends your |
| W1:125.4 | give to you His holy Word to spread across the world the tidings of | salvation and the holy time of peace. We gather at the throne of God |
| W1:126.1 | of goal, and sure direction. You would understand the means by which | salvation comes to you and would not hesitate to use it now. |
| W1:126.5 | for his sin. Think you the Lord of Heaven would allow the world's | salvation to depend on this? Would not His care for you be small |
| W1:126.5 | depend on this? Would not His care for you be small indeed if your | salvation rested on a whim? |
| W1:126.7 | empty gestures and evaluate such petty gifts as worthy of His Son? | Salvation is a better gift than this, and true forgiveness, as the |
| W1:127.9 | Today the legion of the future years of waiting for | salvation disappears before the timelessness of what you learn. Let |
| W1:128.3 | Escape today the chains you place upon your mind when you perceive | salvation here. For what you value you make part of you as you |
| W1:128.4 | Let nothing which relates to body thoughts delay your progress to | salvation, nor permit temptation to believe the world has anything |
| W1:132.2 | Yet is | salvation easily achieved, for anyone is free to change his mind, and |
| W1:132.11 | for today except another way of saying that to know your Self is the | salvation of the world? To free the world from every kind of pain is |
| W1:134.1 | must be seen as mere eccentric folly, and this course appear to rest | salvation on a whim. |
| W1:135.27 | you. Today we will remember Him. For this is Eastertime in your | salvation. And you rise again from what was seeming death and |
| W1:136.10 | life, Heaven more frail than hell, and God's design for the | salvation of His Son opposed by a decision stronger than His Will. |
| W1:137.1 | Today's idea remains the central thought on which | salvation rests. For healing is the opposite of all the world's ideas |
| W1:137.9 | Spirit urges you to follow Him. His gentle lessons teach how easily | salvation can be yours, how little practice you need undertake to let |
| W1:138.7 | are opposites resolved, for ending opposition is to die. And thus | salvation must be seen as death, for life is seen as conflict. To |
| W1:138.8 | relinquish its ideas about its own protection. It must be saved from | salvation, threatened to be safe, and magically armored against |
| W1:140.13 | Only | salvation can be said to cure. Speak to us, Father, that we may be |
| W1:140.14 | And we will feel | salvation cover us with soft protection and with peace so deep that |
| W1:R4.4 | co-creator with Himself. It is this thought which fully guarantees | salvation to the Son. For in his mind no thoughts can dwell but those |
| W1:150.2 | [140] Only | salvation can be said to cure. |
| W1:151.17 | And we will hourly remember Him Who is | salvation and deliverance. As we give thanks the world unites with us |
| W1:152.1 | all details. Here is its whole reality for you. And it is only here | salvation is. |
| W1:152.3 | Salvation is the recognition that the truth is true and nothing else | |
| W1:153.9 | we stand secure, serenely certain of our safety now, sure of | salvation; sure we will fulfill our chosen purpose as our ministry |
| W1:153.11 | is but their own. And while you fail to teach what you have learned, | salvation waits and darkness holds the world in grim imprisonment. |
| W1:153.12 | Salvation can be thought of as a game that happy children play. It | |
| W1:153.12 | of fear is gladly laid aside when children come to see the benefits | salvation brings. |
| W1:153.15 | now becomes the least we give to preparation for a day in which | salvation is the only goal we have. Ten would be better; 15 better |
| W1:153.18 | away from Him a moment, even though your time is spent in offering | salvation to the world. Think you He will not make this possible for |
| W1:153.18 | make this possible for you who chose to carry out His plan for the | salvation of the world and yours? |
| W1:154.4 | through the Voice of God of Father and of Son that sets apart | salvation from the world. It is this Voice which speaks of laws the |
| W1:154.4 | Voice which speaks of laws the world does not obey, which promises | salvation from all sin, with guilt abolished in the mind that God |
| W1:156.6 | This is the way | salvation works. As you step back, the Light in you steps forward and |
| W1:159.1 | The world believes that to possess a thing, it must be kept. | Salvation teaches otherwise. To give is how to recognize you have |
| W1:159.7 | and welcome. No one will be turned away from this new home where his | salvation waits. No one is stranger to him. No one asks for anything |
| W1:160.10 | by which his Self is clearly recognized, his home remembered, and | salvation come. |
| W1:161.1 | anger, that our fears may disappear and offer room to love. Here is | salvation in the simple words in which we practice today's idea. Here |
| W1:161.10 | is enemy to you, for you will not perceive that in his hands is your | salvation. Ask him but for this, and he will give it to you. Ask him |
| W1:161.12 | Select one brother, symbol of the rest, and ask | salvation of him. See him first as clearly as you can in that same |
| W1:162.5 | right to perfect holiness you now accept. With this acceptance is | salvation brought to everyone, for who could cherish sin when |
| W1:163.8 | There is no death, and we renounce it now in every form for their | salvation and our own as well. God made not death. Whatever form it |
| W1:164.6 | on them in a new light. And what you see becomes the healing and | salvation of the world. The valuable and valueless are both perceived |
| W1:164.8 | within your mind where Christ can come and offer you the treasure of | salvation. He has need of your most holy mind to save the world. |
| W1:164.9 | fail? Can you withhold so little when His Hand holds out complete | salvation to His Son? |
| W1:165.6 | Now is all doubting past, the journey's end made certain, and | salvation given you. Now is Christ's power in your mind to heal as |
| W1:169.6 | where the past and future cannot be conceived. It lies beyond | salvation—past all thought of time, forgiveness, and the holy face |
| W1:169.10 | what all the rest depends on. As you take the role assigned to you, | salvation comes a little nearer each uncertain heart that does not |
| W1:169.10 | with God. Forgiveness is the central theme which runs throughout | salvation, holding all its parts in meaningful relationships, the |
| W1:169.11 | And now we ask for grace, the final gift | salvation can bestow. Experience that grace provides will end in |
| W1:170.14 | all our brothers, knowing they are one with us. We bring them Your | salvation as we have received it now. And we give thanks for them who |
| W1:183.10 | your own remembering. You can accept today the part you play in its | salvation and your own as well, and both can be accomplished |
| W1:184.15 | the truth You give in place of every one of them. Your Name is our | salvation and escape from what we made. Your Name unites us in the |
| W1:186.5 | instead. Judge not your value to it. If God's Voice assures you that | salvation needs your part and that the whole depends on you, be sure |
| W1:186.7 | the threat it does not know, sensing its basis crumble. Let it go. | Salvation of the world depends on you and not upon this little pile |
| W1:186.14 | to you when formlessness has been restored to you is greater still. | Salvation of the world depends on you who can forgive. Such is your |
| W1:187.3 | before you give them. If you are to save the world, you first accept | salvation for yourself. But you will not believe that this is done |
| W1:188.4 | and the world restores the memory to you as well. From you | salvation radiates with gifts beyond all measure, given and returned. |
| W1:188.9 | it. Now we choose that it be innocent, devoid of sin, and open to | salvation. And we lay our saving blessing on it as we say: |
| W1:189.2 | through the night as silent guardian of your holy sleep. It sees | salvation in you and protects the light in you in which it sees its |
| W1:191.5 | For he who can accept his true Identity is truly saved. And his | salvation is the gift he gives to everyone in gratitude to Him Who |
| W1:191.8 | cannot be in pain; I cannot lose, nor can I fail to do all that | salvation asks. |
| W1:191.12 | today. Your glory is the light that saves the world. Do not withhold | salvation longer. Look about the world, and see the suffering there. |
| W1:193.9 | dream of sin and rid the mind of fear. These are the words by which | salvation comes to all the world. |
| W1:193.12 | the gifts His Love brings with it. Would you now renounce your own | salvation? Would you fail to learn the simple lessons Heaven's |
| W1:193.17 | look on everything that lets it be to you another step to Him and to | salvation of the world. |
| W1:194.1 | Today's idea takes another step toward quick | salvation, and a giant stride it is indeed! So great the distance is |
| W1:194.2 | that locked the door to freedom on it. You are saved, and your | salvation thus becomes the gift you give the world because you have |
| W1:194.6 | you extend your learning to the world. And as you learn to see | salvation in all things, so will the world perceive that it is saved. |
| W1:196.4 | freedom. Let us take this step today that we may quickly go the way | salvation shows us, taking every step in its appointed sequence as |
| W1:196.5 | escape yourself has nailed you to the cross. Perhaps it seemed to be | salvation. Yet it merely stood for the belief the fear of God is |
| W1:196.9 | of God projection hides behind. The thing you dread the most is your | salvation. You are strong, and it is strength you want. And you are |
| W1:196.9 | weak and bound because you feared your strength and freedom. Yet | salvation lies in them. |
| W1:196.11 | can kill at last. Yet in this instant is the time as well in which | salvation comes. For fear of God has disappeared. And you can call on |
| W1:197.2 | their thoughts can do. Deny your strength, and weakness must become | salvation to you. See yourself as bound, and bars become your home. |
| W1:197.2 | you leave the prison house or claim your strength until guilt and | salvation are not seen as one, and freedom and salvation are |
| W1:197.2 | until guilt and salvation are not seen as one, and freedom and | salvation are perceived as joined, with strength beside them, to be |
| W1:198.5 | in your hand? Is it not more intelligent to thank the One Who gives | salvation, and accept His gift with gratitude? And is it not a |
| W1:199.7 | and afraid. Let love replace their fears through you. Accept | salvation now, and give your mind to Him Who calls to you to make |
| W1:R6.1 | can between them. Each of these ideas alone would be sufficient for | salvation, if it were learned truly. Each would be enough to give |
| W1:206.1 | [186] | Salvation of the world depends on me. I am entrusted with the gifts |
| W1:216.1 | I do, I do unto myself. If I attack, I suffer. But if I forgive, | salvation will be given me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am |
| W1:217.1 | It can be but my gratitude I earn. Who should give thanks for my | salvation but myself? And how but through salvation can I find the |
| W1:217.1 | should give thanks for my salvation but myself? And how but through | salvation can I find the Self to Whom my thanks are due? I am not a |
| W2:WS.1 | Salvation is a promise made by God that you would find your way to | |
| W2:WS.3 | Salvation is undoing in the sense that it does nothing, failing to | |
| W2:WS.5 | From here we give | salvation to the world, for it is here salvation was received. The |
| W2:WS.5 | From here we give salvation to the world, for it is here | salvation was received. The song of our rejoicing is the call to all |
| W2:237.1 | upon the world throughout the day. I bring the world the tidings of | salvation that I hear as God my Father speaks to me. And I behold the |
| W2:238.1 | You created me and know me as I am. And yet You placed Your Son's | salvation in my hands and let it rest on my decision. I must be |
| W2:241.1 | day has come when sorrows pass away and pain is gone. The glory of | salvation dawns today upon a world set free. This is the time of hope |
| W2:257.2 | Father, forgiveness is Your chosen means for our | salvation. Let us not forget that we can have no will but Yours |
| W2:WIC.2 | perceive. For though in Him His Father placed the means for your | salvation, yet does He remain the Self Who, like His Father, knows no |
| W2:282.1 | If I could realize but this today, | salvation would be reached for all the world. This the decision not |
| W2:297.1 | would make it mine to be the way I live within a world that needs | salvation and that will be saved as I accept Atonement for myself. |
| W2:297.2 | sure their final outcome, and how truly faithful is every step in my | salvation set already and accomplished by Your grace. Thanks be to |
| W2:304.2 | to the light, from sin to holiness. Let me forgive and thus receive | salvation for the world. It is Your gift, my Father, given me to |
| W2:308.2 | is the time You have appointed for Your Son's release and for | salvation of the world in him. |
| W2:310.2 | joins with us in our song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who gave | salvation to us, and Who set us free. We are restored to peace and |
| W2:WILJ.4 | of pain the Son whom God acknowledges as His. Be not afraid of this. | Salvation asks you give it welcome. And the world awaits your glad |
| W2:317.1 | I have a special place to fill—a role for me alone. | Salvation waits until I take this part as what I choose to do. Until |
| W2:317.1 | the way my Father's plan appointed me to go, then will I recognize | salvation is already here, already given all my brothers and already |
| W2:319.2 | the goal that stems from it shares its totality. What aim but the | salvation of the world could You have given me? And what but this |
| W2:321.2 | way our Father has established. And how sure is all the world's | salvation when we learn our freedom can be found in God alone. |
| W2:323.1 | make, the only “cost” of restoration of Your memory to me for the | salvation of the world. |
| W2:324.1 | Father, You are the One Who gave the plan for my | salvation to me. You have set the way I am to go, the role to take, |
| W2:327.1 | I am not asked to take | salvation on the basis of an unsupported faith. For God has promised |
| W2:328.1 | our independence from the rest of God's creation is the way in which | salvation is obtained. Yet all we find is sickness, suffering and |
| W2:WIE.4 | its laws and its beliefs, its dreams, its hopes, its plans for its | salvation, and the cost belief in it entails. In suffering, the price |
| W2:338.1 | It needs but this to let | salvation come to all the world. For in this single thought is |
| W2:338.2 | I learn that You have given me the only Thought which leads me to | salvation. Mine alone will fail and lead me nowhere. But the Thought |
| W2:343.2 | The mercy and the peace of God are free. | Salvation has no cost. It is a gift that must be freely given and |
| W2:WAI.3 | We are the bringers of | salvation. We accept our part as saviors of the world, which through |
| W2:FL.3 | our minds, directing all our thoughts to serve the function of | salvation. Unto us the aim is given to forgive the world. It is the |
| W2:FL.4 | the way, the truth, and life that show the way to us. In him resides | salvation, offered us through our forgiveness given unto him. |
| M:I.5 | Except for God's teachers, there would be no hope of | salvation, for the world of sin would seem forever “real.” The |
| M:I.5 | are they chosen? What do they do? How can they work out their own | salvation and the salvation of the world? This manual attempts to |
| M:I.5 | What do they do? How can they work out their own salvation and the | salvation of the world? This manual attempts to answer these |
| M:1.1 | even if he does not yet believe in Him. He has become a bringer of | salvation. He has become a teacher of God. |
| M:1.3 | is always, “God's Son is guiltless, and in his innocence is his | salvation.” It can be taught by actions or thoughts, in words or |
| M:1.3 | He has seen someone else as himself. He has therefore found his own | salvation and the salvation of the world. In his rebirth is the world |
| M:1.3 | else as himself. He has therefore found his own salvation and the | salvation of the world. In his rebirth is the world reborn. |
| M:2.2 | In order to understand the teaching-learning plan of | salvation, it is necessary to grasp the concept of time which the |
| M:3.1 | to be made for each teacher of God. There are no accidents in | salvation. Those who are to meet will meet, because together they |
| M:3.2 | interests, if only for a moment. That moment will be enough. | Salvation has come. |
| M:3.3 | and His plan can have no levels, being a reflection of His Will. | Salvation is always ready and always there. God's teachers work at |
| M:4.15 | the strength of gentleness, for it is in this that the function of | salvation becomes easy. To those who would do harm, it is impossible. |
| M:4.16 | as great as theirs of Him. How joyous it is to share the purpose of | salvation! |
| M:4.25 | to the world. Blessed indeed are they, for they are the bringers of | salvation. |
| M:5.9 | is true. As God's messengers, His teachers are the symbols of | salvation. They ask the patient for forgiveness for God's Son in his |
| M:9.2 | for the relinquishment of judgment as the necessary condition of | salvation. |
| M:11.2 | that it is pointless to try to reconcile them. God offers the world | salvation; your judgment would condemn it. God says there is no |
| M:14.3 | behind. One sin perfectly forgiven by one teacher of God can make | salvation complete. Can you understand this? No; it is meaningless to |
| M:15.1 | Final Judgment on him is received. This is the judgment in which | salvation lies. This is the judgment that will set him free. This is |
| M:17.7 | of God Himself. And now there is no hope. Except to kill. Here is | salvation now. An angry Father pursues His guilty Son. Kill or be |
| M:18.1 | Reality is changeless. Magic thoughts are but illusions. Otherwise | salvation would be only the same age-old impossible dream in but |
| M:18.1 | same age-old impossible dream in but another form. Yet the dream of | salvation has new content. It is not the form alone in which the |
| M:19.1 | aside. If God's Son were fairly judged, there would be no need for | salvation. The thought of separation would have been forever |
| M:19.4 | Salvation is God's justice. It restores to your awareness the | |
| M:22.3 | to do as it sees fit would merely take the place of God and prove | salvation is impossible. What then is left to heal? The body has |
| M:22.3 | to the Holy Spirit unless the body is killed? And who would want | salvation at such a price? |
| M:23.5 | He has remained with you. Would you not learn the lesson of | salvation through his learning? Why would you choose to start again |
| M:24.2 | laying the groundwork for a future life, he can still work out his | salvation only now. To some there may be comfort in the concept, and |
| M:24.2 | its value is self-evident. It is certain, however, that the way to | salvation can be found by those who believe in reincarnation and by |
| M:24.6 | course always remains the same—it is at this moment that complete | salvation is offered you, and it is at this moment that you can |

| Tx:23.43 | everyone. Let the idea of compromise but enter, and the awareness of | salvation's purpose is lost because it is not recognized. It is |

| Tx:31.68 | Concepts are needed while perception lasts, and changing concepts is | salvation's task. For it must deal in contrasts, not in truth, which |

| Tx:1.1 | One is not “harder” or “bigger” than another. They are all the | same. All expressions of love are maximal. |
| Tx:1.57 | the Spiritual eye identifies error as false or unreal. This is the | same as saying that by perceiving light, darkness automatically |
| Tx:1.64 | Since you and your neighbor are equal members of the | same family, as you perceive both, so you will behave toward both. |
| Tx:1.65 | should be replaced by love, because love and its absence are in the | same dimension, and correction cannot be undertaken except within a |
| Tx:2.5 | Himself to the Souls He created, and He also imbued them with the | same loving will to create. The Soul has not only been fully created |
| Tx:2.12 | one continuous line of creation in which all aspects are of the | same order. |
| Tx:2.19 | all error into the light, and since error and darkness are the | same, it corrects error automatically. True denial is a powerful |
| Tx:2.42 | You still think this is associated with loss. This is the | same mistake all the separated ones make in one way or another. They |
| Tx:2.43 | but reinterpreted, even though you may experience it as the | same thing. In the reinterpretation of defenses, only their use for |
| Tx:2.75 | matter, but the fundamental error does. The correction is always the | same. Before you will to do anything, ask me if your will is in |
| Tx:2.105 | to create was given him by his own Creator, Who was expressing the | same will in His creation. Since creative ability rests in the mind, |
| Tx:3.2 | without either over- or understating it. I have also tried to do the | same in connection with yours. I have stressed that awe is not an |
| Tx:3.10 | workers. It should be noted that the two statements are not in the | same order of reality. The latter involves a time awareness, since to |
| Tx:3.22 | pure in heart for they shall see God” is another way of saying the | same thing. |
| Tx:3.26 | until it is total. When it is partial, it is characterized by the | same erratic nature that holds for other two-edged defenses. |
| Tx:3.28 | many times that only what God creates, or what man creates with the | same will, has any real existence. This, then, is all the innocent |
| Tx:3.33 | is closed because it believes the future and present will be the | same. This establishes an unchanged state or stasis. It is usually an |
| Tx:3.35 | is timeless because it is certain. To perceive the truth is not the | same as knowing it. |
| Tx:3.42 | Intrapersonal conflict arises from the | same basis as interpersonal conflict. One part of the psyche |
| Tx:3.54 | attempt to regard himself as both separated and unseparated at the | same time. It is impossible to undertake a confusion as fundamental |
| Tx:4.7 | Teacher and pupil are alike in the learning process. They are in the | same order of learning, and unless they share their lessons, they |
| Tx:4.8 | This profound confusion is possible only if one maintains that the | same thought system can stand on two foundations. Nothing can reach |
| Tx:4.28 | harm themselves if you do not. The speed-up has placed you in the | same position. |
| Tx:4.46 | preservation in the face of threat, the ego perceives them as the | same. The threat-value of the lofty is actually much greater to the |
| Tx:4.46 | equated with the pull of human appetites. By perceiving them as the | same, the ego attempts to save itself from being swept away, as it |
| Tx:4.79 | aggression and the resulting behavior, which is perceived as the | same for both, serves as an example. This is “understandable” to the |
| Tx:4.82 | phrase since “all” and “a little” in this context are the | same, the ego decides that, since “all” is impossible, the fear does |
| Tx:4.85 | to each other is something you must never forget. It is exactly the | same debt that you owe to me. Whenever you react egotistically |
| Tx:4.94 | it splits, so only part of it is concrete. The concrete part is the | same part that believes in the ego because the ego depends on the |
| Tx:4.96 | which it perceives as related. In contrast the Soul reacts in the | same way to everything it knows is true and does not respond at all |
| Tx:5.1 | yourselves and how many you have refused. This is exactly the | same as telling you that you have refused to heal yourselves. The |
| Tx:5.2 | joyous themselves call forth different kinds of responses at the | same time and thus deprive others of the joy of responding |
| Tx:5.2 | is the wholly joyous. To heal or to make joyous is therefore the | same as to integrate and to make one. That is why it makes no |
| Tx:5.11 | as a protection, inspiring the beginning of the Atonement at the | same time. Before that, there was no need for healing and no one was |
| Tx:5.19 | The Atonement and the separation began at the | same time. When man made the ego, God placed in him the call to joy. |
| Tx:5.23 | Freedom to choose is the | same power as freedom to create, but its application is different. |
| Tx:5.27 | in Heaven and earth. My only gift to you is to help you make the | same decision for yourself. The will for this decision is the will to |
| Tx:5.30 | have enjoined you to behave as I behaved, but we must respond to the | same mind to do this. This mind is the Holy Spirit, whose will is for |
| Tx:5.36 | has the task of undoing what the ego has made. He undoes it in the | same realm of discourse in which the ego itself operates, or the mind |
| Tx:5.56 | they occur at different levels and include opposite thoughts at the | same level. It is impossible to share opposing thoughts. The Holy |
| Tx:5.73 | is that the two voices speak for different interpretations of the | same thing simultaneously, or almost simultaneously, for the ego |
| Tx:5.89 | it. The reason for this amount of detail is because you are in the | same position. You were eternally fixated on God in your creation, |
| Tx:6.19 | was intended. The Apostles often misunderstood it and always for the | same reason that makes anyone misunderstand anything. Their own |
| Tx:6.31 | parallel lines as if they meet in the distance, which is the | same as in the future if time and space are one dimension. Your |
| Tx:6.37 | in this perception, because what the Holy Spirit perceives is the | same. Wherever He looks He sees Himself, and because He is united, He |
| Tx:6.39 | many words as synonymous which are not ordinarily regarded as the | same. We began with having and being and more recently have used |
| Tx:6.48 | cannot hear the Holy Spirit, but it does believe that part of the | same mind that made it is against it. It interprets this as a |
| Tx:6.61 | dies, because it cannot contain you who are life. If we share the | same mind, you can overcome death because I did. Death is an attempt |
| Tx:6.94 | me as much as of you, but remember that those who will to teach the | same thing must be in agreement about what they believe. |
| Tx:7.16 | differences do not matter. The meaning of His message is always the | same, and only the meaning matters. God's law of Creation in perfect |
| Tx:7.29 | a choice? It seems to be, but seeming and reality are hardly the | same. You who are the Kingdom are not concerned with seeming. Reality |
| Tx:7.33 | is of God according to His laws. Both, therefore, come from the | same Source, [because] inspiration comes from the Voice for God, and |
| Tx:7.77 | teach another. One Teacher is in all your minds, and He teaches the | same lesson to all. He always teaches you the inestimable worth of |
| Tx:7.98 | at their logical outcome. Is it not possible that you have done the | same thing with the premises of God? |
| Tx:8.12 | Spirit teaches you the difference between pain and joy. That is the | same as saying that He teaches you the difference between |
| Tx:8.12 | yourself that imprisonment is freedom. Believing them to be the | same, how can you tell them apart? Can you ask the part of your mind |
| Tx:8.12 | ask the part of your mind that taught you to believe they are the | same to teach you the difference between them? |
| Tx:8.26 | It is therefore an illusion of isolation, maintained by fear of the | same loneliness which is its illusion. I have told you that I am with |
| Tx:8.64 | attack is to separate. How can you do both simultaneously with the | same thing and not suffer? Perception of the body can be unified only |
| Tx:8.76 | catastrophic outcomes. The Holy Spirit, perfectly aware of the | same data, does not bother to analyze them at all. If the data are |
| Tx:8.95 | do not communicate because they speak for different things to the | same mind. This loses the ability to communicate simply because |
| Tx:8.96 | is the only safety. Your will is your salvation because it is the | same as God's. The separation is nothing more than the belief that it |
| Tx:8.108 | for physical healing because he is fearful of bodily harm. At the | same time, however, if he were healed physically, the threat to his |
| Tx:9.17 | insane. You know it because I know it, and you have judged it by the | same standard as I have. The ego literally lives on borrowed time, |
| Tx:9.36 | they cannot be separated. When you have learned that they are the | same, the need for time is over. |
| Tx:9.53 | in your awareness since both are untrue and are therefore on the | same level. Being the level of shift, it is experienced as shifting, |
| Tx:9.77 | Creator with him? To believe a Son of God is sick is to worship the | same idol he does. God created love, not idolatry. All forms of |
| Tx:9.91 | can shine into another, because all the lamps of God were lit by the | same spark. It is everywhere, and it is eternal. |
| Tx:10.11 | from His. And being an extension of His Will, yours must be the | same. |
| Tx:10.34 | within. It is difficult at first to realize that this is exactly the | same thing, for there is no distinction between within and without. |
| Tx:10.60 | prison and ascend to the Father? For these questions are all the | same and are answered together. There has been much confusion about |
| Tx:10.60 | has been much confusion about what perception means because the | same word is used both for awareness and for the interpretation of |
| Tx:11.25 | that your salvation lies in not doing it. You, then, are making the | same mistake that he is and are making his error real to both of you. |
| Tx:11.34 | have placed its source, and where it began it must end. For in this | same place also lies salvation. The altar of God where Christ abideth |
| Tx:11.40 | His mission, He will teach you yours, for your mission is the | same as His. By guiding your brothers home, you are but following Him. |
| Tx:11.49 | and do not find.” Translated into curricular terms, this is the | same as saying, “Try to learn but do not succeed.” The result of this |
| Tx:11.66 | for that is not what it is seeking. Yet seeking and finding are the | same, and if you seek for two goals you will find them, but you will |
| Tx:11.66 | but you will recognize neither. For you will think they are the | same because you want them both. The mind always strives for |
| Tx:11.71 | it is because you saw something that is not there. Yet in that | same place, you could have looked upon me and all your brothers in |
| Tx:12.50 | is real. It extends to all aspects of consciousness at the | same time and thus enables them to reach each other. The present is |
| Tx:12.60 | the amount to which you hold it dear. And yet their power is not the | same because their real attraction to you is unequal. |
| Tx:13.5 | whole, you cannot know this until you see that every aspect is the | same, perceived in the same light and therefore one. Everyone seen |
| Tx:13.5 | this until you see that every aspect is the same, perceived in the | same light and therefore one. Everyone seen without the past thus |
| Tx:13.6 | They are all the | same; all beautiful and equal in their holiness. And He will offer |
| Tx:13.15 | form, in anyone, believe this not. For sin and condemnation are the | same, and the belief in one is faith in the other, calling for |
| Tx:13.64 | and the interference in your motivation for learning is exactly the | same as that which interferes with all your thinking. The happy |
| Tx:14.6 | the Atonement, but the message given to each to share is always the | same—God's Son is guiltless. Each one teaches the message |
| Tx:14.28 | is instantly apparent. One will go because the other is seen in the | same place. Light cannot enter darkness when a mind believes in |
| Tx:14.44 | who look upon it is not obscure, for everyone perceives it as the | same. All bring their different problems to its healing light, but |
| Tx:14.45 | The response of holiness to any form of error is always the | same. There is no contradiction in what holiness calls forth. Its one |
| Tx:14.51 | The miracle offers exactly the | same response to every call for help. It does not judge the call. It |
| Tx:15.7 | underneath its fanatical insistence that the past and future be the | same is hidden a far more insidious threat to peace. The ego does not |
| Tx:15.52 | Without the values from the past, you would see them all the | same and like yourself. Nor would you see any separation between |
| Tx:15.95 | for you made but one mistake. It seems like many, but it is all the | same. For though the ego takes many forms, it is always the same |
| Tx:15.95 | all the same. For though the ego takes many forms, it is always the | same idea. What is not love is always fear and nothing else. It is |
| Tx:15.95 | regard them not as separate but as different manifestations of the | same idea, and one you do not want, they go together. The idea is |
| Tx:15.112 | the Great Awakening. Make this year different by making it all the | same. And let all your relationships be made holy for you. This is |
| Tx:16.45 | is true. In Heaven, where the meaning of love is known, love is the | same as union. Here, where the illusion of love is accepted in love's |
| Tx:16.56 | do this to the extent to which you want them to be true. And to the | same extent you are denying truth, and so are making yourself unable |
| Tx:17.6 | through fantasy, you are refusing to forgive yourself for just this | same attempt. And you are holding both of you away from truth and |
| Tx:17.25 | and fear, truth or illusion, freedom or slavery—it is all the | same. For you can never choose except between God and the ego. |
| Tx:17.55 | gladly arrange the means for its accomplishment? It is just this | same discrepancy between the purpose that has been accepted and the |
| Tx:17.64 | you did not believe that the situation and the problem were in the | same place. The problem was the lack of faith, and it is this you |
| Tx:17.72 | Your faith will call the others to share your purpose, as this | same purpose called forth the faith in you. And you will see the |
| Tx:17.74 | given it is also given to every situation. It calls forth just the | same suspension of faithlessness, withheld and left unused, that |
| Tx:18.2 | they are one. Being united, they are one because they are the | same. Substitution is clearly a process in which they are perceived |
| Tx:18.7 | and nothing else. Yet what else is necessary to make them all the | same? |
| Tx:18.19 | with you. And what you seem to wake to is but another form of this | same world you see in dreams. All your time is spent in dreaming. |
| Tx:18.19 | dreams have different forms, and that is all. Their content is the | same. They are your protest against reality and your fixed and insane |
| Tx:18.23 | natural. For as your sleeping and your waking dreams represent the | same wishes in your mind, so do the real world and the truth of |
| Tx:18.64 | Afterwards, you will see the body again, but never quite the | same. And every instant that you spend without awareness of it gives |
| Tx:19.6 | Both cannot be together nor perceived in the | same place. To dedicate yourself to both is to set up a goal forever |
| Tx:19.13 | then, offer grace and blessing to each other, for you stand at the | same altar where grace was laid for both of you. And be you healed by |
| Tx:19.44 | There is no order of difficulty in miracles, for they are all the | same. Each is a gentle winning over from the appeal of guilt to the |
| Tx:19.49 | other looks upon does not exist. Fear looks on guilt with just the | same devotion that love looks on itself. And each has messengers |
| Tx:19.71 | the pain of all illusions, and the illusion of pleasure will be the | same as pain. |
| Tx:19.73 | and both also recognize that here the sender and receiver are the | same. The Holy Spirit tells you this with joy. The ego hides it, for |
| Tx:19.94 | Every obstacle that peace must flow across is surmounted in just the | same way; the fear that raised it yields to the love beneath, and so |
| Tx:19.106 | you. And be you free together, as you offer to the Holy Spirit this | same gift. And giving it, receive it of Him in return for what you |
| Tx:19.106 | me together that we might meet here in this holy place and make the | same decision. |
| Tx:20.32 | of separation, each is appointed separately, though they are all the | same. Yet those who know that they are all the same need not |
| Tx:20.32 | they are all the same. Yet those who know that they are all the | same need not salvation. And each one finds his savior when he is |
| Tx:20.41 | of eternity that runs through time like golden light is all the | same—nothing before it, nothing afterwards. |
| Tx:20.58 | said the means to meet the Holy Spirit's goal will come from the | same Source as does His purpose. Being so simple and direct, this |
| Tx:20.74 | each different and with different values. Yet they are all the | same. Again there is no order but a seeming hierarchy of values. |
| Tx:21.12 | And now the blind can see, for that | same song they sing in honor of their Creator gives praise to them as |
| Tx:21.13 | repeated how little is asked of you to learn this course. It is the | same small willingness you need to have your whole relationship |
| Tx:21.25 | your own Creator and be father and not son to Him. This is the | same desire. The Son is the effect, whose Cause he would deny. And so |
| Tx:21.26 | as that you recognize that you did not create yourself. They are the | same mistake. Nothing created not by your Creator has any influence |
| Tx:21.28 | independence of its source that kept you prisoner. This is the | same delusion that you are independent of the Source by which you |
| Tx:21.53 | been there since the need for Him arose and was fulfilled in the | same instant. Such would your reason tell you if you listened. Yet |
| Tx:21.54 | answer be but in the Source? And where are you but there, where this | same answer is? Your Identity, as much a true effect of this same |
| Tx:21.54 | this same answer is? Your Identity, as much a true effect of this | same Source as is the answer, must therefore be together and the same. |
| Tx:21.54 | same Source as is the answer, must therefore be together and the | same. |
| Tx:21.59 | you deny it to yourself and to your brother. And if he shares this | same belief, you both will think that you are damned. This you could |
| Tx:21.61 | by accepting reason where madness was. Madness and reason see the | same things, but it is certain that they look upon them differently. |
| Tx:21.65 | The instant that you choose to let yourself be healed, in that | same instant is his whole salvation seen as complete with yours. |
| Tx:21.76 | and unlike the others. Yet reason would assure you they are all the | same. We said this year would emphasize the sameness of things that |
| Tx:21.76 | said this year would emphasize the sameness of things that are the | same. This final question, which is indeed the last you need decide, |
| Tx:21.81 | the final question so important? Reason will tell you why. It is the | same as are the other three except in time. The others are decisions |
| Tx:21.81 | can desire to exchange your helplessness for power, and lose this | same desire as a little glint of sin attracts you. And you can want |
| Tx:21.82 | In content, all the questions are the | same. For each one asks if you are willing to exchange the world of |
| Tx:21.87 | is in what He knows, it looks on everything and sees it is the | same. It sees not the ephemeral, for it desires that everything be |
| Tx:22.1 | No two can look on sin together, for they could never see it in the | same place and time. Sin is a strictly individual perception, seen in |
| Tx:22.1 | error, and one the other cannot understand. Brothers, it is the | same, made by the same, and forgiven for its maker in the same way. |
| Tx:22.1 | the other cannot understand. Brothers, it is the same, made by the | same, and forgiven for its maker in the same way. |
| Tx:22.1 | it is the same, made by the same, and forgiven for its maker in the | same way. |
| Tx:22.2 | bodies perhaps under a common roof that shelters neither—in the | same room and yet a world apart. |
| Tx:22.15 | Christ comes to what is like Himself; the | same, not different. For He is always drawn unto Himself. What is as |
| Tx:22.16 | alternatives and different from each other. In truth they are the | same. Both bring the same amount of misery, though each one seems to |
| Tx:22.16 | from each other. In truth they are the same. Both bring the | same amount of misery, though each one seems to be the way to lose |
| Tx:22.19 | from misery is to recognize it and go the other way. Truth is the | same and misery the same, but they are different from each other in |
| Tx:22.19 | recognize it and go the other way. Truth is the same and misery the | same, but they are different from each other in every way, in every |
| Tx:22.19 | To believe that one exception can exist is to confuse what is the | same with what is different. One illusion cherished and defended |
| Tx:22.20 | and the ego will tell you this, but what they make of it is not the | same. The ego will assure you now that it is impossible for you to |
| Tx:22.22 | Forsake not now each other. For you who are the | same will not decide alone nor differently. Either you give each |
| Tx:22.24 | that what you made has power to enslave its maker. This is the | same belief that caused the separation. It is the meaningless idea |
| Tx:22.24 | but its enemies. And here we see again another form of the | same fundamental illusion we have seen many times before. Only if it |
| Tx:22.55 | all confusion, observing merely, “This was a mistake.” And then the | same Atonement you accepted in your relationship corrects the error |
| Tx:22.64 | thought in one brings gladness to the other because they are the | same. Joy is unlimited because each shining thought of love extends |
| Tx:22.65 | denies the ego. Let truth decide if you be different or the | same and teach you which is true. |
| Tx:23.9 | you share with it. And yet illusions cannot join. They are the | same, and they are nothing. Their joining lies in nothingness; two |
| Tx:23.21 | to overcome than others. If it were realized that they are all the | same and equally untrue, it would be easy, then, to understand that |
| Tx:23.43 | little, and know the difference. Thus it would teach a little of the | same can still be different, and yet the same remain intact as one. |
| Tx:23.43 | would teach a little of the same can still be different, and yet the | same remain intact as one. Does this make sense? Can it be understood? |
| Tx:23.47 | Heaven is wholly true. No difference enters, and what is all the | same cannot conflict. You are not asked to fight against your wish to |
| Tx:23.47 | murder. But you are asked to realize the form it takes conceals the | same intent. And it is this you fear and not the form. What is not |
| Tx:23.48 | are incompatible. Yet if they both are true, then must they be the | same and indistinguishable from one another. So will they be to those |
| Tx:23.49 | the function of the Son is murder, but it is insanity. What is the | same can have no different function. Creation is the means for God's |
| Tx:23.54 | It is their past, their present, and their future always the | same, eternally complete, and wholly shared. They know it is |
| Tx:24.5 | the special could have enemies, for they are different and not the | same. And difference of any kind imposes orders of reality and a need |
| Tx:24.8 | him if you realized you journey with him to a goal that is the | same? Would you not help him reach it in every way you could if his |
| Tx:24.10 | it teaches you you are alike. You have no purpose that is not the | same and none your Father does not share with you. For your |
| Tx:24.11 | be peace among the different. He is your friend because you are the | same. |
| Tx:24.18 | him and in yourself. But be you certain that the truth is just the | same in both. It gives no different messages and has one meaning. And |
| Tx:24.20 | enemies and bound in hate to kill each other and deny they are the | same. Yet it is not illusions which have reached this final obstacle |
| Tx:24.22 | gave you to him and him to you because He gave Himself. What is the | same as God is one with Him. And only specialness could make the |
| Tx:24.29 | oppose His Will forever. Nor is it possible the two can ever be the | same while specialness stands like a flaming sword of death between |
| Tx:24.30 | rise between what He wills for you and what you will. They are the | same, for neither one wills specialness. How could they will the |
| Tx:24.46 | for He knows that love is in you now and safely held in you by that | same hand that holds your brother's in your own. Christ's hand holds |
| Tx:25.11 | What is the | same can not be different, and what is one can not have separate |
| Tx:25.22 | You are the | same, as God Himself is one and not divided in His Will. And you must |
| Tx:25.22 | in His Will. And you must have one purpose, since He gave the | same to both of you. His Will is brought together as you join in will |

| Tx:25.29 | For these two questions are the same. And when you see them as the | same, your choice is made. For it is seeing them as one that brings |
| Tx:25.33 | in its effects on you. Because you chose it as a means to gain these | same effects, believing them to be the bringers of rejoicing and of |
| Tx:25.51 | and sure as Heaven. How could it be that hell and Heaven are the | same? And is it possible that what He did not will cannot be changed? |
| Tx:25.56 | appears most sensible and meaningful to you. The content is the | same. The form is suited to your special needs and to the special |
| Tx:25.59 | plan to show His Sons that hell and Heaven are different, not the | same. And that in Heaven they are all the same, without the |
| Tx:25.59 | are different, not the same. And that in Heaven they are all the | same, without the differences which would have made a hell of Heaven |
| Tx:25.65 | the world knows nothing. To the world, justice and vengeance are the | same, for sinners see justice only as their punishment, perhaps |
| Tx:25.66 | still can ask and learn the answer. Justice looks on all in the | same way. It is not just that one should lack for what another has. |
| Tx:25.72 | due. For love and justice are not different. Because they are the | same does mercy stand at God's right hand and give the Son of God the |
| Tx:25.76 | too. How can the special really understand that justice is the | same for everyone? To take from one to give another must be an |
| Tx:25.76 | they are equal in the Holy Spirit's sight. Their Father gave the | same inheritance to both. Who would have more or less is not aware |
| Tx:25.87 | and given equally. It is awareness that giving and receiving are the | same. Because it does not make the same unlike, it sees no |
| Tx:25.87 | that giving and receiving are the same. Because it does not make the | same unlike, it sees no differences where none exist. And thus it is |
| Tx:25.87 | unlike, it sees no differences where none exist. And thus it is the | same for everyone, because it sees no differences in them. Its |

| Tx:26.10 | because each one is solved in just the same respect and through the | same approach. The aspects which need solving do not change, whatever |
| Tx:26.11 | you release from every problem that you think you have. They are the | same to Him because each one, regardless of the form it seems to |
| Tx:26.21 | But in this world, there are no simple facts because what is the | same and what is different remain unclear. The one essential thing to |
| Tx:26.22 | Heaven and the wish for hell unless he recognizes they are not the | same? This difference is the learning goal this course has set. It |
| Tx:26.22 | not go beyond this aim. Its only purpose is to teach what is the | same and what is different, leaving room to make the only choice |
| Tx:26.23 | and over-complicated world. For no one understands what is the | same and seems to choose where no choice really is. The real world is |
| Tx:26.30 | indeed to those who do not understand that miracles are all the | same. Yet teaching that is what this course is for. This is its only |
| Tx:26.44 | that the truth alone can give? Who can believe illusions are the | same and still maintain that even one is best? |
| Tx:26.61 | is his, unlimited by loss of any kind. A tiny sacrifice is just the | same in its effects as is the whole idea of sacrifice. If loss in any |
| Tx:26.62 | gave answer to them all as one. And what is one to Him must be the | same. If you believe what is the same is different, you but deceive |
| Tx:26.62 | And what is one to Him must be the same. If you believe what is the | same is different, you but deceive yourself. What God calls one will |
| Tx:26.85 | that a response of anger now is just. And thus you see what is the | same as different. Confusion is not limited. If it occurs at all, it |
| Tx:27.7 | yourself in different tongues. And yet to both the message is the | same. Adornment of the body seeks to show how lovely are the |
| Tx:27.22 | to forgive and never to accuse. Alone, you cannot see they are the | same, and therefore is correction not of you. Identity and function |
| Tx:27.22 | therefore is correction not of you. Identity and function are the | same, and by your function do you know yourself. And thus, if you |
| Tx:27.24 | is the function given it by you. When you perceive correction is the | same as pardon, then you also know the Holy Spirit's mind and yours |
| Tx:27.25 | own be seen as one. Yours are mistakes, but his are sins and not the | same as yours. His merit punishment, while yours in fairness should |
| Tx:27.28 | must be left to One Who knows correction and forgiveness are the | same. With half a mind, this is not understood. Leave then correction |
| Tx:27.34 | is but half the picture and is incomplete, within itself it is the | same. The other half of what it represents remains unknown but is not |
| Tx:27.38 | in itself. A double question asks and answers, both attesting the | same thing in different form. |
| Tx:27.39 | world is made?” Whatever form the question takes, its purpose is the | same. It asks but to establish sin is real and answers in the form of |
| Tx:27.50 | generalizes to include them all. This is because they really are the | same despite their different forms. All learning aims at transfer, |
| Tx:27.51 | does not jump from situations to their opposites and bring the | same results. All healing must proceed in lawful manner in accord |
| Tx:27.54 | it away from Him and focusing upon itself. Its purpose is the | same as pleasure, for they both are means to make the body real. What |
| Tx:27.54 | are means to make the body real. What shares a common purpose is the | same. This is the law of purpose, which unites all those who share in |
| Tx:27.55 | from pain to pleasure and again to pain. For either witness is the | same and carries but one message: “You are here within this body, and |
| Tx:28.16 | circle of creation has no end. Its starting and its ending are the | same. But in itself it holds the universe of all creation, without |
| Tx:28.38 | It is the dream you fear and not the mind. You see them as the | same because you think that you are but a dream. And what is real and |
| Tx:28.42 | you are confused, for in the gap no stable self exists. What is the | same seems different because what is the same appears to be unlike. |
| Tx:28.42 | self exists. What is the same seems different because what is the | same appears to be unlike. His dreams are yours because you let them |
| Tx:28.45 | whole is in each one. And every aspect of the Son of God is just the | same as every other part. |
| Tx:29.38 | of endless strife and misery and pain? These questions are the | same in different form. Forgiveness is your peace, for herein lies |
| Tx:29.52 | object owned or wanted, or a right demanded or achieved, it is the | same. |
| Tx:29.60 | there is. And to be sure you could not lose it, did He also give the | same to every living thing as well. And thus is every living thing a |
| Tx:30.44 | as it was before the time when you forgot and will be just the | same when you remember. And it is the same within the interval when |
| Tx:30.44 | forgot and will be just the same when you remember. And it is the | same within the interval when you forgot. |
| Tx:30.87 | for meaning. Only dreams of pardon can be shared. They mean the | same to both of you. |
| Tx:30.88 | And through His use of symbols are we joined so that they mean the | same to all of us. Our common language lets us speak to all our |
| Tx:31.17 | calls for life, for hate or for forgiveness and for help, is not the | same in outcome. Hear the one, and you are separate from him and are |
| Tx:31.23 | a safer place for him to be. Can you make progress if you think the | same, advancing only when he would step back and falling back when he |
| Tx:31.24 | enough to let this happen. And you will perceive his purpose is the | same as yours. He asks for what you want and needs the same as you. |
| Tx:31.24 | is the same as yours. He asks for what you want and needs the | same as you. It takes perhaps a different form in him, but it is not |

| W1:15.2 | to understand it when you have seen little edges of light around the | same familiar objects which you see now. That is the beginning of |
| W1:23.9 | of attacking and of being attacked. Their effects are exactly the | same because they are exactly the same. You do not yet recognize |
| W1:23.9 | Their effects are exactly the same because they are exactly the | same. You do not yet recognize this, and you are asked at this time |
| W1:23.9 | this, and you are asked at this time only to treat them as the | same in today's practice periods. We are still at the stage of |
| W1:28.2 | things differently. The light you will see in any one of them is the | same light you will see in them all. |

| W1:45.2 | your thoughts with Him, as He shares His with you. They are the | same thoughts because they are thought by the same Mind. To share is |
| W1:45.2 | with you. They are the same thoughts because they are thought by the | same Mind. To share is to make alike or to make one. Nor do the |

| W1:70.5 | Today we practice realizing that God's Will and ours are really the | same in this. |
| W1:73.1 | Today we are considering the will you share with God. This is not the | same as the ego's idle wishes, out of which darkness and nothingness |
| W1:79.2 | world seems to have his own special problems. Yet they are all the | same and must be recognized as one if the one solution which solves |
| W1:80.3 | you. Only be certain you do not forget that all problems are the | same. Their many forms will not deceive you while you remember this. |
| W1:83.5 | Fulfilling my function is my happiness because both come from the | same Source. And I must learn to recognize what makes me happy if I |
| W1:99.1 | Salvation and forgiveness are the | same. They both imply that something has gone wrong—something you |
| W1:99.13 | Salvation is my only function here. Salvation and forgiveness are the | same. |
| W1:99.15 | the one you think you made. Forgiveness and salvation are the | same. Forgive what you have made, and you are saved. |
| W1:104.3 | we made we but unite our will with what God wills and recognize the | same as being one. |
| W1:107.10 | brother and so like to you your Father knows that you are both the | same. It is your Self you ask to go with you, and how could He be |
| W1:108.2 | that darkness cannot be perceived at all. And thus what is the | same is seen as one, while what is not the same remains unnoticed, |
| W1:108.2 | all. And thus what is the same is seen as one, while what is not the | same remains unnoticed, for it is not there. |
| W1:108.4 | all opposites are reconciled because they are perceived from the | same frame of reference which unifies this thought. |
| W1:108.5 | completely unified, will serve to unify all thought. This is the | same as saying one correction will suffice for all correction or that |
| W1:108.6 | To learn that giving and receiving are the | same has special usefulness because it can be tried so easily and |
| W1:109.2 | sleeping truth in you, whose vision sees beyond appearances to that | same truth in everyone and everything there is. Here is the end of |
| W1:R3.7 | messages and use them for yourself. Offer them to your mind in that | same trust and confidence and faith. It will not fail. It is the Holy |
| W1:121.9 | unforgiving mind does not believe that giving and receiving are the | same. Yet we will try to learn today that they are one through |
| W1:125.7 | than your hand. His Love is everything you are and that He is—the | same as you, and you the same as He. |
| W1:125.7 | is everything you are and that He is—the same as you, and you the | same as He. |
| W1:126.8 | Today we try to understand the truth that giver and receiver are the | same. You will need help to make this meaningful because it is so |
| W1:127.3 | between the Father and the Son which holds them both forever as the | same. |
| W1:136.1 | healing is automatic. It dispels this meaningless illusion by the | same approach that carries all of them to truth and merely leaves |
| W1:138.2 | of the truth that makes the choice of Heaven seem to be the | same as the relinquishment of hell. It is not really thus. Yet what |
| W1:140.11 | be laid aside, not separately, but all of them as one. They are the | same. We have no need to make them different and thus delay the time |
| W1:152.15 | Him with the words with which the day began, concluding it with this | same invitation to your Self. God's Voice will answer, for He speaks |
| W1:155.14 | how limitless His Love. In your name and His own, which are the | same, we practice gladly with this thought today: |
| W1:157.6 | eyes which we can offer everyone that he may come the sooner to the | same experience in which the world is quietly forgot and Heaven is |
| W1:157.8 | The time will come when you will not return in the | same form in which you now appear, for you will have no need of it. |
| W1:161.12 | ask salvation of him. See him first as clearly as you can in that | same form to which you are accustomed. See his face, his hands and |
| W1:R5.14 | time. And with this thought we sleep, to waken once again with these | same words upon our lips to greet another day. No thought that we |
| W1:183.10 | You can escape all bondage of the world and give the world the | same release you found. You can remember what the world forgot and |

| W1:185.3 | each the hero of the dream is different—the outcome wanted not the | same for both. Loser and gainer merely shift about in changing |
| W1:185.5 | learned their only difference is one of form, for one will bring the | same despair and misery as do the rest. |
| W1:193.5 | kindness to the Son He loves. Each lesson has a central thought, the | same in all of them. The form alone is changed, with different |
| W1:193.5 | characters and different themes apparent but not real. They are the | same in fundamental content. It is this: |
| W1:200.7 | a world in opposition to God's Will and to his own, which is the | same as His. What could he hope to find in such a world? It cannot |
| W2:225.1 | I must return Your love for me. For giving and receiving are the | same, and You have given all Your love to me. I must return it, for I |
| W2:265.2 | Your thoughts and mine as well. Let me remember that they are the | same, and I will see creation's gentleness. |
| W2:291.1 | His sight shows me all things forgiven and at peace and offers this | same vision to the world. And I accept this vision in its name, both |

| M:2.5 | situation, each one learns that giving and receiving are the | same. The demarcations they have drawn between their roles, their |
| M:2.5 | another fade and grow dim and disappear. Those who would learn the | same course share one interest and one goal. And thus he who was the |
| M:2.5 | that gave his teacher to him. He has seen in another person the | same interests as his own. |
| M:3.1 | at the beginning, although the ultimate goal is always the | same—to make of the relationship a holy relationship in which both |
| M:3.3 | teachers work at different levels, but the result is always the | same. |

| M:12.5 | it will become to you. Use it for sin or for attack, which is the | same as sin, and you will see it as sinful. Because it is sinful, it |
| M:16.5 | The | same procedures should be followed at night. Perhaps your quiet time |
| M:17.4 | acted out. It does not matter. All of these reactions are the | same. They obscure the truth, and this can never be a matter of |
| M:18.1 | thoughts are but illusions. Otherwise salvation would be only the | same age-old impossible dream in but another form. Yet the dream of |
| M:22.7 | not be understood until God's teacher recognizes that they are the | same mistake. Herein does he receive Atonement, for he withdraws his |
| M:24.2 | which strengthens the idea that life and the body are not the | same. |
| M:24.6 | The emphasis of this course always remains the | same—it is at this moment that complete salvation is offered you, |
| M:25.4 | which the Holy Spirit wants and needs. Yet the ego sees in these | same strengths an opportunity to glorify itself. Strengths turned to |

| Tx:22.59 | concern be only that you give to Him that which can be extended. | Save no dark secrets that He cannot use, but offer Him the tiny gifts |
| Tx:23.27 | gain, and thus it fails to recognize that you can never take away | save from yourself. Yet all the other laws must lead to this. For |

| Tx:24.27 | yourself in sin beside him, both in misery before the idol that can | save you not. |
| Tx:24.33 | done unto your savior? God calls to you from him to join His Will to | save you both from hell. Look on the print of nails upon his hands |
| Tx:24.46 | His joy. His perfect lack of specialness He offers you that you may | save all living things from death, receiving from each one the gift |
| Tx:24.57 | the past. He who condemned himself, and you as well, is given you to | save from condemnation along with you. And both shall see God's glory |
| Tx:24.58 | love of God for you must be that He has given you a part of Him to | save from pain and give you happiness. And never doubt but that your |

| Tx:25.71 | For love has lost when judgment left its side and is too weak to | save from punishment. But vengeance without love has gained in |
| Tx:25.71 | and apart from love. And what but vengeance now can help and | save, while love stands feebly by with helpless hands, bereft of |
| Tx:25.71 | with helpless hands, bereft of justice and vitality and powerless to | save? What can Love ask of you who think that all of this is true? |
| Tx:26.64 | is answered in the name of love. To you to whom it has been given to | save the Son of God from crucifixion and from hell and death, all |
| Tx:26.64 | and from hell and death, all glory be forever. For you have power to | save the Son of God because his Father willed that it be so. And in |
| Tx:26.66 | in bringing blessing to the world of sin and death. For what can | save each one of us can save us all. There is no difference among the |
| Tx:26.66 | to the world of sin and death. For what can save each one of us can | save us all. There is no difference among the Sons of God. The unity |
| Tx:26.66 | among the Sons of God. The unity that specialness denies will | save them all, for what is one can have no specialness. And |
| Tx:29.20 | he is a savior first, before he can remember what he is. And he must | save who would be saved. On saving you depends his happiness. For who |
| Tx:29.24 | light in him is brighter still because you gave your light to him to | save him from the dark. And now the light in you must be as bright as |

| Tx:29.63 | you from the dream. Yet they are part of what they have been made to | save you from. Thus does an idol keep the dream alive and terrible, |
| Tx:29.64 | in the dream as you are dreaming it. For idols must be part of it to | save you from what you believe you have accomplished and have done to |
| Tx:29.65 | toys instead. And their reality becomes his own because they seem to | save him from his thoughts. Yet do they keep his thoughts alive and |
| Tx:29.69 | and believe it will betray you. For beneath your hope that it will | save you lie the guilt and pain of self-betrayal and uncertainty, so |

| W1:26.1 | must also have effects on you. It is this law that will ultimately | save you. But you are misusing it now. You must therefore learn how |
| W1:38.2 | in its power to help anyone because it is equal in its power to | save anyone. If you are holy, so is everything God created. You are |
| W1:39.7 | you see them differently. And it is your blessing on them that will | save you and give you vision. |
| W1:55.3 | thoughts which give rise to this picture. My loving thoughts will | save me from this perception of the world and give me the peace God |
| W1:58.4 | in its power to heal because it is unlimited in its power to | save. What is there to be saved from except illusions? And what are |
| W1:60.5 | a moment in which God's Voice ceases to call on my forgiveness to | save me. There is not a moment in which His Voice fails to direct my |
| W1:61.3 | to be saved and an acknowledgment of the power that is given you to | save others. |
| W1:64.12 | This is the world it is my function to | save. |
| W1:70.2 | today's idea is this: it means that nothing outside yourself can | save you; nothing outside yourself can give you peace. But it also |
| W1:71.7 | because there is no possible alternative to God's plan that will | save you. His is the only plan that is certain in its outcome. His is |
| W1:72.7 | angry animals seek for prey and mercy cannot enter, the ego comes to | save you. God made you a body. Very well. Let us accept this and be |
| W1:75.1 | and you can heal. The light has come. You are saved, and you can | save. You are at peace, and you bring peace with you wherever you go. |
| W1:76.3 | bound by all the strange and twisted laws which you have set up to | save you. You really think that you would starve unless you have |
| W1:76.5 | attacks itself and wants to die. It is from this your “laws” would | save the body. It is for this you think you are a body. |
| W1:76.6 | to His Will. Your magic has no meaning. What it is meant to | save does not exist. Only what it is meant to hide will save you. |
| W1:76.6 | is meant to save does not exist. Only what it is meant to hide will | save you. |
| W1:76.9 | is yours. Many “religions” have been based on this. They would not | save, but damn in Heaven's name. Yet they are no more strange than |
| W1:78.12 | not our own. Temptation falls away when we allow each one we meet to | save us and refuse to hide his light behind our grievances. To |
| W1:86.4 | God's plan for salvation will | save me from my perception of this. This is no exception in God's |
| W1:88.5 | effect on me at all. I am perfectly free of the effects of all laws | save God's. And His are the laws of freedom. |
| W1:96.16 | Be not dismayed by this. The joy your Self experiences it will | save for you, and it will yet be yours in full awareness. Every time |
| W1:97.9 | all limits, safe and healed and whole, free to forgive, and free to | save the world. |
| W1:99.6 | the only Source it knows. This is the thought whose function is to | save by giving you its function as your own. |
| W1:100.3 | you are sad, the light which God Himself appointed as the means to | save the world is dim and lusterless. And no one laughs, because all |
| W1:110.1 | idea from time to time. For this one thought would be enough to | save you and the world if you believed that it is true. Its truth |
| W1:110.8 | to the world—the savior who has been forever saved, with power to | save whoever touches Him however lightly, asking for the Word that |
| W1:115.3 | for the salvation of the world. For He gave me His plan that I might | save the world. |
| W1:123.5 | Him the thanks are yours as well. An unheard message will not | save the world, however mighty be the Voice that speaks, however |
| W1:123.7 | will be returned to you in terms of years for every second, power to | save the world eons more quickly for your thanks to Him. |
| W1:124.7 | these words we say as well that we are saved and healed, that we can | save and heal accordingly. We have accepted and we now would give, |
| W1:125.2 | This world will change through you. No other means can | save it, for God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is free to |
| W1:125.2 | save it, for God's plan is simply this: the Son of God is free to | save himself, given the Word of God to be his Guide, forever in his |
| W1:132.1 | What keeps the world in chains but your beliefs? And what can | save the world except your Self? Belief is powerful indeed. The |
| W1:134.12 | He does not have to fight to | save himself. He does not have to kill the dragons which he thought |
| W1:134.17 | one of them, but realize that you are using his “offenses” but to | save the world from all ideas of sin. Briefly consider all the evil |
| W1:135.1 | was attacked, that the attack is real, and that his own defense can | save himself? And herein lies the folly of defense—it gives |
| W1:135.14 | Enslavement of the body to the plans the unhealed mind sets up to | save itself must make the body sick. It is not free to be a means of |
| W1:153.7 | have denied the Christ and come to fear His Father's anger. What can | save you now from your delusion of an angry god whose fearful image |
| W1:153.8 | will not play such childish games today. For our true purpose is to | save the world, and we would not exchange for foolishness the endless |
| W1:162.1 | This single thought, held firmly in the mind, would | save the world. From time to time we will repeat it, as we reach |
| W1:162.3 | he sleeps and wakens with the truth before him always. He will | save the world because he gives the world what he receives each time |
| W1:164.8 | you the treasure of salvation. He has need of your most holy mind to | save the world. |
| W1:170.2 | is fear protected, not escaped. Today we learn a lesson which can | save you more delay and needless misery than you can possibly |
| W1:R5.11 | world. You are my voice, my eyes, my feet, my hands, through which I | save the world. The Self from Which I call to you is but your own. To |
| W1:186.1 | as well as Heaven. It unites all wills on earth in Heaven's plan to | save the world, restoring it to Heaven's peace. |
| W1:187.3 | Ideas must first belong to you before you give them. If you are to | save the world, you first accept salvation for yourself. But you will |
| W1:191.10 | the world. The Son of God has come in glory to redeem the lost, to | save the helpless, and to give the world the gift of his forgiveness. |
| W1:196.2 | the ego, under what it sees as threat, is quick to cite the truth to | save its lies. Yet must it fail to understand the truth it uses thus. |
| W1:196.11 | comes. For fear of God has disappeared. And you can call on Him to | save you from illusions in His Love, calling Him Father and yourself |
| W1:198.3 | and though it is itself a dream, it breeds no others. All illusions | save this one must multiply a thousand fold. But this is where |
| W1:198.6 | His words will work. His words will | save. His words contain all hope, all blessing and all joy that ever |
| W1:200.1 | will not find peace except the peace of God. Accept this fact, and | save yourself the agony of yet more bitter disappointments, bleak |
| W2:WIW.5 | complete. And let us not attempt to change our function. We must | save the world. For we who made it must behold it through the eyes of |
| W2:245.1 | them to me, my Father. Let me bring Your peace with me. For I would | save Your Son as is Your Will, that I may come to recognize my Self. |
| W2:264.2 | today. This is salvation's prayer. Must we not join in what will | save the world along with us? |
| W2:267.1 | the purpose of forgiveness. Now my mind is healed, and all I need to | save the world is given me. Each heartbeat brings me peace; each |
| W2:303.2 | Your Son is welcome, Father. He has come to | save me from the evil self I made. He is the Self that You have given |
| W2:305.2 | but to accept Your gift and judge it not. For it has come to us to | save us from our judgment on ourselves. |
| W2:313.2 | How holy and how loving! Brother, come and join with me today. We | save the world when we are joined. For in our vision it becomes as |
| W2:318.1 | In me, God's holy Son, are reconciled all parts of Heaven's plan to | save the world. What could conflict when all the parts have but one |
| W2:333.2 | No light but this can end our evil dreams. No light but this can | save the world. For this alone will never fail in anything, being |
| W2:342.1 | I thank You, Father, for Your plan to | save me from the hell I made. It is not real. And You have given me |
| W2:344.1 | not my own. I have not understood what giving means and thought to | save what I desired for myself alone. And as I looked upon the |
| M:1.2 | that the plan of the teachers was established. Their function is to | save time. Each one begins as a single light, but with the Call at |
| M:1.4 | thousands of other forms, all with the same outcome. They merely | save time. Yet it is time alone that winds on wearily, and the world |
| M:13.8 | Word to you, for He has need of teachers. What other way is there to | save His Son? |
| M:16.3 | safely say that time devoted to starting the day right does indeed | save time. How much time should be so spent? This must depend on the |
| M:16.6 | a place of safety for yourself. You think you made a power that can | save you from all the fearful things you see in dreams. It is not so. |

| Tx:10.68 | God's Son is | saved. Bring only this awareness to the Sonship, and you will have a |

| Tx:11.25 | two-fold—first, what is to be saved, and second, how can it be | saved? |
| Tx:11.26 | for whatever reason, you are believing that the ego is to be | saved and to be saved by attack. If he attacks, you are agreeing with |
| Tx:11.26 | reason, you are believing that the ego is to be saved and to be | saved by attack. If he attacks, you are agreeing with this belief, |
| Tx:11.28 | and it is attained through peace. This is the only thing that can be | saved and the only way to save it. Any response other than love |
| Tx:11.99 | yourself, for without guilt, attack is impossible. You, then, are | saved because God's Son is guiltless. And being wholly pure, you are |
| Tx:13.26 | you and show them to you fearfully to demonstrate what He has | saved you from. What He has saved you from is gone. Give no reality |
| Tx:13.26 | you fearfully to demonstrate what He has saved you from. What He has | saved you from is gone. Give no reality to guilt, and see no reason |
| Tx:13.77 | that you would define what salvation is and what you would be | saved from. The Holy Spirit knows that all salvation is escape from |
| Tx:14.32 | of the Holy Spirit and there undone. Whom He would save for glory is | saved for it. He has promised the Father that through Him you would |

| Tx:23.35 | of the attack on him deceive you. You cannot seek to harm him and be | saved. Who can find safety from attack by turning on himself? How can |
| Tx:23.45 | with the belief that murder takes some forms by which their peace is | saved? Would they be willing to accept the fact their savage purpose |
| Tx:24.39 | was there. Your specialness seemed safe because of it. And thus you | saved what you appointed to be your savior and crucified the one whom |
| Tx:25.31 | Does he need help or condemnation? Is it your purpose that he be | saved or damned? Forgetting not that what he is to you will make this |
| Tx:25.36 | sang will sing again in you. And every flower that ever bloomed has | saved its perfume and its loveliness for you. What aim can supersede |

| Tx:25.79 | not to gain the gift because you are reluctant to accept it. It is | saved for you until reluctance to receive it disappears and you are |

| Tx:29.20 | before he can remember what he is. And he must save who would be | saved. On saving you depends his happiness. For who is savior but the |
| Tx:29.24 | his waking eyes will rest on you. And in his glad salvation, you are | saved. |
| Tx:29.50 | truth. And all the world becomes the means by which this idol can be | saved. Salvation thus appears to threaten life and offer death. |
| Tx:30.33 | divinity is but your own. And all He knows is but your knowledge, | saved for you that you may do your will through Him. God asks you do |
| Tx:30.37 | Him Whose holy will you share. God turns to you to ask the world be | saved, for by your own salvation it is healed. And no one walks upon |
| Tx:30.73 | one who sees himself as guilty can avoid the fear of God. But he is | saved from this dilemma if he can forgive. The mind must think of its |
| Tx:31.9 | its call unheard. Without your answer is it left to die, as it is | saved from death when you have heard its calling as the ancient call |
| Tx:31.21 | Because he is your equal in God's love, you will be | saved from all appearances and answer to the Christ Who calls to you. |
| Tx:31.77 | hell and torment? Who has learned to see his brother not as this has | saved himself, and thus is he a savior to the rest. To everyone has |
| Tx:31.77 | all, because a partial savior would be one who is but partly | saved. The holy ones whom God has given each of you to save are |
| W1:20.3 | salvation of the world be a trivial purpose? And can the world be | saved if you are not? God has one Son, and he is the resurrection and |
| W1:23.4 | made, but you do not see yourself as the image-maker. You cannot be | saved from the world, but you can escape from its cause. This is what |
| W1:27.7 | while you were repeating today's idea, you can be sure that you have | saved yourself many years of effort. |
| W1:39.3 | salvation? You cannot give what you do not have. A savior must be | saved. How else can he teach salvation? Today's exercises will apply |
| W1:39.6 | and therefore fearful. And so it is from them that you need to be | saved. |
| W1:58.4 | because it is unlimited in its power to save. What is there to be | saved from except illusions? And what are all illusions except false |
| W1:61.3 | place in salvation. It is a positive assertion of your right to be | saved and an acknowledgment of the power that is given you to save |
| W1:67.1 | This is why the Son of God looks to you for his salvation. He is | saved by what you are. |
| W1:70.1 | and salvation must be in the same place. Understanding this you are | saved. |
| W1:71.2 | if some external circumstance or event were changed, you would be | saved. Thus the source of salvation is constantly perceived as |
| W1:71.3 | in which you believe that says, “If this were different, I would be | saved.” The change of mind that is necessary for salvation is thus |
| W1:71.4 | to determine what other than itself must change if you are to be | saved. According to this insane plan, any perceived source of |
| W1:73.11 | He is willing this very day to look upon the light in him and be | saved. |
| W1:75.1 | come. You are healed and you can heal. The light has come. You are | saved, and you can save. You are at peace, and you bring peace with |
| W1:76.4 | of economics, and of health. Protect the body, and you will be | saved. |
| W1:76.14 | It is our acknowledgment that God is our Father and that His Son is | saved. |
| W1:78.11 | to express through him the role God gave Him that you might be | saved. God thanks you for these quiet times today in which you laid |
| W1:78.11 | thanking you, for not one thought of God but must rejoice as you are | saved and all the world with you. |
| W1:80.4 | the problem. You are answered and have accepted the answer. You are | saved. |
| W1:93.4 | is death, but it is life. You think you are destroyed, but you are | saved. |
| W1:96.2 | use, and where you see the problem, must be accepted if you would be | saved. Until you have accepted this, you will attempt endless lists |
| W1:96.15 | If you succeed, the thoughts that come to you will tell you you are | saved and that your mind has found the function that it sought to |
| W1:97.3 | a little nearer at least; sometimes a thousand years or more are | saved. The minutes which you give are multiplied over and over, for |
| W1:99.1 | both imply that something has gone wrong—something you need to be | saved from or forgiven for, something amiss that needs corrective |
| W1:99.15 | and salvation are the same. Forgive what you have made, and you are | saved. |
| W1:100.2 | Why should you choose to go against His Will? The part that He has | saved for you to take in working out His plan is given you that you |
| W1:100.3 | joy, His joy is incomplete. Without your smile, the world cannot be | saved. While you are sad, the light which God Himself appointed as |
| W1:110.4 | In this one thought is all the past undone; the present | saved to quietly extend into a timeless future. If you are as God |
| W1:110.8 | of God and brother to the world—the savior who has been forever | saved, with power to save whoever touches Him however lightly, asking |
| W1:121.7 | mind must learn through your forgiveness that it has been | saved from hell. And as you teach salvation, you will learn. |
| W1:121.12 | friend to you, for in that light his holiness shows you your savior, | saved and saving, healed and whole. Then let him offer you the light |
| W1:123.2 | yourself, nor let you wander in the dark alone. Be grateful He has | saved you from the self you thought you made to take the place of Him |
| W1:123.3 | for the Son He loves is changeless as Himself. Be grateful you are | saved. Be glad you have a function in salvation to fulfill. Be |
| W1:124.7 | we are one with God. For in these words we say as well that we are | saved and healed, that we can save and heal accordingly. We have |
| W1:128.1 | all that serves to give you joy. Believe this thought, and you are | saved from years of misery, from countless disappointments, and from |
| W1:135.10 | the limits, and the lacks from which you think the body must be | saved. You will not see the mind as separate from bodily conditions. |
| W1:138.8 | will not relinquish its ideas about its own protection. It must be | saved from salvation, threatened to be safe, and magically armored |
| W1:155.8 | hold in chains the holy Son of God. It is but from illusions he is | saved. As they step back, he finds himself again. |
| W1:166.12 | learn to give. This is the lesson that His giving holds, for He has | saved you from the solitude you sought to make in which to hide from |

| W1:10.6 | if any personal meaning to you. As each one crosses your mind, | say: |
| W1:12.3 | As you look about you, | say to yourself: |
| W1:14.4 | then deny its reality. God did not create it, and so it is not real. | Say, for example: |
| W1:14.6 | quite specifically. Do not use general terms. For example, do not | say, “God did not create illness,” but, “God did not create cancer,” |
| W1:14.9 | aside from the practice periods. Be very specific in applying it. | Say: |
| W1:15.4 | around you, using its name and letting your eyes rest on it as you | say: |
| W1:17.2 | In applying today's idea, | say to yourself, with eyes open: |
| W1:17.4 | your glance on each thing that catches your eye long enough to | say: |
| W1:17.6 | For example, you might | say: |
| W1:18.3 | application of the idea randomly, look at each one long enough to | say: |
| W1:19.3 | or theme it contains and, holding it in your mind as you do so, | say: |
| W1:21.6 | perception of the person is suffering from this form of distortion, | say: |
| W1:22.3 | move slowly from one object to another, from one body to another, | say to yourself: |
| W1:23.6 | many attack thoughts as occur to you. As each one crosses your mind | say: |
| W1:23.8 | Hold each attack thought in mind as you | say this, and then dismiss that thought and go on to the next. |
| W1:24.9 | as possible for each unresolved situation that crosses your mind, | say to yourself: |
| W1:25.3 | way of describing the goals you now perceive as valuable is to | say that they are all concerned with “personal” interests. Since you |
| W1:25.6 | or “unhuman.” With your eyes resting on each subject you so select, | say, for example: |
| W1:25.8 | Say this quite slowly, without shifting your eyes until you have | |
| W1:27.2 | believe that some sort of sacrifice is being asked of you when you | say you want to see above all else. If you become uneasy about the |
| W1:28.2 | You may wonder why it is important to | say, for example, “Above all else I want to see this table |
| W1:28.3 | When you | say, “Above all else I want to see this table differently,” you are |
| W1:29.7 | for today at least once an hour, looking slowly about you as you | say the words unhurriedly to yourself. At least once or twice you |
| W1:33.3 | arises which tempts you to become disturbed. For these applications, | say: |
| W1:36.3 | the idea specifically to whatever you note in your casual survey. | Say, for example: |
| W1:41.7 | because it is the most natural thing in the world. You might even | say it is the only natural thing in the world. The way will open if |
| W1:43.5 | subjects for this phase of the exercises are sufficient. You might | say, for example: |
| W1:46.4 | you do not like is a suitable subject. Mention each one by name and | say: |
| W1:46.10 | but the central idea should not be lost sight of. You might | say, for example: |
| W1:54.5 | effects of my thoughts. I am alone in nothing. Everything I think or | say or do touches all the universe. A Son of God cannot think or |
| W1:62.5 | As often as you can, closing your eyes if possible, | say to yourself: |
| W1:65.1 | the saviors of the world. This is the only way in which you can | say and mean, “My only function is the one God gave me.” This is the |
| W1:66.16 | to repeat these words slowly and think about them a little while you | say them. |
| W1:68.7 | Determine now to see all these people as friends. | Say to them all collectively, thinking of each one in turn as you do |
| W1:69.9 | searching for it alone and that you do know where to look for it. | Say, then: |
| W1:70.14 | of your salvation. You are in charge of the salvation of the world. | Say, then: |
| W1:71.11 | You have me do? Where would You have me go? What would You have me | say, and to whom? |
| W1:73.15 | practice periods, again make a declaration of what you really want. | Say: |
| W1:74.13 | should be undertaken at regular and predetermined intervals today, | say to yourself: |
| W1:75.11 | see will be so welcome that you will gladly extend today forever. | Say, then: |
| W1:75.13 | Should you be tempted, | say to anyone who seems to pull you back to darkness: |
| W1:80.6 | to apply the idea for today to any specific problem that may arise. | Say quickly: |
| W1:83.2 | With one purpose only, I am always certain what to do, what to | say, and what to think. All doubt must disappear as I acknowledge |
| W1:91.10 | attributes to be corrected, and their opposites to take their place. | Say, for example: |
| W1:98.8 | His confidence in you will bring the light to all the words you | say, and you will go beyond their sound to what they really mean. |
| W1:98.8 | sound to what they really mean. Today you practice with Him as you | say: |
| W1:98.11 | will respond with all His faith and joy and certainty that what you | say is true. And you will have conviction then of Him Who knows the |
| W1:99.9 | well the idea for today. Try to perceive the strength in what you | say, for these are words in which your freedom lies. Your Father |
| W1:101.7 | from all the consequences sin has wrought in feverish imagination. | Say: |
| W1:105.9 | experience the joy and peace you have denied yourself. Now you can | say, “God's peace and joy are mine,” for you have given what you |
| W1:105.11 | worthless when you cannot give Him more. At least remember hourly to | say the words which call on Him to give you what He wills to give and |
| W1:105.12 | the gifts of God as yours. Then bless your brother thankfully, and | say: |
| W1:107.11 | His function is to share His joy. His confidence is with you, as you | say: |
| W1:108.8 | So we begin the practice periods with the instruction for today and | say: |
| W1:108.10 | hold out to everyone to have it yours. You might, for instance, | say: |
| W1:108.12 | Say each one slowly, and then pause a while, expecting to receive the | |
| W1:108.13 | in your learning, made still faster and more sure each time you | say: |
| W1:110.11 | meet with us today, for it is thus that we remember Him. And we will | say, that we may be reminded of His Son, our holy Self, the Christ in |
| W1:124.7 | We join in this awareness as we | say that we are one with God. For in these words we say as well that |
| W1:124.7 | awareness as we say that we are one with God. For in these words we | say as well that we are saved and healed, that we can save and heal |
| W1:129.4 | as His Son speaks to Him. Their language has no words, for what they | say cannot be symbolized. Their knowledge is direct and wholly shared |
| W1:130.8 | petty treasures of this world. You wait for God to help you as you | say: |
| W1:130.12 | the place of everything that hell would show to you. All you need | say to any part of hell, whatever form it takes, is simply this: |
| W1:132.20 | increase the freedom sent through your ideas to all the world, and | say whenever you are tempted to deny the power of your simple change |
| W1:135.6 | it gifts to make it beautiful or walls to make it safe, and you but | say your home is open to the thief of time, corruptible and |
| W1:135.23 | that we may give instead of organize. And we are given truly, as we | say: |
| W1:139.13 | to keep the knowledge of yourself apart from your awareness, as you | say: |
| W1:140.14 | proof to us that it is real. This will we learn today. And we will | say our prayer for healing hourly and take a minute as the hour |
| W1:R4.10 | assigned to you to be reviewed that day. Then close your eyes and | say them slowly to yourself. There is no hurry now, for you are using |
| W1:160.3 | And yet how easy it would be to | say, “This is my home. Here I belong and will not leave because a |
| W1:169.5 | Being, He encompasses all things. No mind holds anything but Him. We | say “God is,” and then we cease to speak, for in that knowledge words |
| W1:R5.12 | we remind the world that it is free of all illusions every time we | say, |
| W1:181.6 | them with instructions to our minds to change their focus, as we | say: |
| W1:182.1 | here, from somewhere all unknown. Nothing so definite that you could | say with certainty you are an exile here. Just a persistent feeling, |
| W1:183.2 | nor said without an echo in the mind which calls you to remember. | Say His Name, and you invite the angels to surround the ground on |
| W1:183.7 | on this. No other words we use except at the beginning, when we | say today's idea but once. And then God's Name becomes our only |
| W1:185.1 | To | say these words is nothing. But to mean these words is everything. If |
| W1:185.7 | our practicing to recognizing that we really mean the words we | say. We want the peace of God. This is no idle wish. These words do |
| W1:188.9 | and open to salvation. And we lay our saving blessing on it as we | say: |
| W1:193.10 | Shall we not learn to | say these words when we are tempted to believe that pain is real and |
| W1:193.10 | and death becomes our choice instead of life? Shall we not learn to | say these words when we have understood their power to release all |
| W1:199.8 | to it. And God Himself extends His Love and happiness each time you | say: |
| W1:200.11 | no further. We are close to home and draw still nearer every time we | say: |
| W1:R6.8 | are tempted, hasten to proclaim your freedom from temptation, as you | say: |
| W1:R6.11 | you. I place you in His charge and let Him teach you what to do and | say and think each time you turn to Him. He will not fail to be |
| W2:I.3 | holy instants which conclude the year that we have given God. We | say some simple words of welcome and expect our Father to reveal |
| W2:I.4 | and it will be accepted. So our times with Him will now be spent. We | say the words of invitation that His Voice suggests, and then we wait |
| W2:275.2 | tell me what to do and where to go, to whom to speak, and what to | say to him, what thoughts to think, what words to give the world. The |
| W2:300.1 | This is the thought that can be used to | say that death and sorrow are the certain lot of all who come here. |
| W2:360.1 | like to You in perfect sinlessness, and with this thought we gladly | say “Amen.” |
| W2:FL.6 | We come in honesty to Him and | say we did not understand and ask Him to help us to learn His lessons |
| W2:FL.6 | Teacher. Would He hurt His Son? Or would He rush to answer him and | say, “This is My Son, and all I have is his”? Be certain He will |
| W2:E.5 | The end is certain and the means as well. To this we | say “Amen.” We will be told exactly what God wills for us each time |
| W2:E.6 | We trust our ways to Him and | say “Amen.” In peace we will continue in His way and trust all things |
| M:I.3 | with it or it may not. It is the teaching underlying what you | say that teaches you. Teaching but reinforces what you believe about |
| M:3.3 | best way to demonstrate that these levels cannot exist is simply to | say that any level of the teaching-learning situation is part of |
| M:4.11 | only they can see its value. Honesty does not apply only to what you | say. The term actually means consistency. There is nothing you say |
| M:4.11 | you say. The term actually means consistency. There is nothing you | say that contradicts what you think or do; no thought opposes any |
| M:5.4 | in which the valuelessness of sickness is recognized. One need but | say, “There is no gain to me at all in this,” and he is healed. But |
| M:5.4 | “There is no gain to me at all in this,” and he is healed. But to | say this one must first recognize certain facts. First, it is obvious |
| M:5.5 | at all. The patient could merely rise up without their aid and | say, “I have no use for this.” There is no form of sickness that |
| M:11.2 | your judgment or the Word of God is more likely to be true. For they | say different things about the world, and things so opposite that it |
| M:14.5 | that all God would have you do, you can do. Do not be arrogant and | say you cannot learn His own curriculum. His Word says otherwise. His |
| M:16.3 | becomes less and less emphasized. At the outset, we can safely | say that time devoted to starting the day right does indeed save |

| M:22.7 | Who can limit the power of God Himself? Who then can | say who can be healed of what and what must remain beyond God's power |
| M:22.7 | healing should be given and where it should be withheld. Now can he | say with God, “This is my beloved Son, created perfect and forever |

| Tx:15.94 | you have offered it to everyone. It is in your power to make this | season holy, for it is in your power to make the time of Christ be |

| Tx:6.80 | cannot be difficult if God Himself created you as a creator. The | second step, then, is still perceptual, although it is a giant step |
| Tx:6.81 | this consistently, and so your progress is intermittent, but the | second step is easier than the first because it follows. The very |

| Tx:11.25 | The question is always two-fold—first, what is to be saved, and | second, how can it be saved? |
| Tx:13.68 | Each day, each hour and minute, even every | second, you are deciding between the crucifixion and the |
| Tx:13.86 | One. Beyond the First, there is no other, for there is no order, no | second or third and nothing but the First. |
| Tx:13.90 | still within Him. He knows what you are. Remember that there is no | second to Him. There cannot, therefore, be anyone without His |
| Tx:15.21 | instructions as you go along. To learn to separate out this single | second and begin to experience it as timeless, is to begin to |
| Tx:19.59 | Where the attraction of guilt holds sway, peace is not wanted. The | second obstacle that peace must flow across, and closely related to |

| W1:66.9 | The | second premise is that God has given you your function. We have seen |

| W1:108.4 | not depend on which is seen as first, nor which appears to be in | second place. Here it is understood that both occur together, that |
| W1:R3.13 | one to be applied on each half hour as well. Forget them not. This | second chance with each of these ideas will bring such large advances |

| W1:R4.1 | Now we review again, this time aware we are preparing for the | second part of learning how the truth can be applied. Today we will |

| W2:WISC.2 | all living things with you. There is no end to the release the | Second Coming brings, as God's creation must be limitless. |
| W2:WISC.2 | brings, as God's creation must be limitless. Forgiveness lights the | Second Coming's way because it shines on everyone as one. And thus is |
| W2:WISC.3 | The | Second Coming ends the lessons which the Holy Spirit teaches, making |
| W2:WISC.3 | summary that will extend beyond itself and reaches up to God. The | Second Coming is the time in which all minds are given to the hands |

| W2:329.1 | wandered from Your Will, defied it, broke its laws, and interposed a | second will more powerful than Yours. Yet what I am in truth is but |
| M:3.4 | we can speak of levels of teaching. Using the term in this way, the | second level of teaching is a more sustained relationship in which |
| M:4.5 | When the teacher of God has learned that much, he goes on to the | second stage. |

| Tx:11.67 | look in before you look out. As you look in you choose the guide for | seeing, and then you look out and behold his witnesses. This is why |
| Tx:12.2 | failed. Yet you have no idea that you are failing the Son of God by | seeing him as guilty. Believing you are no longer you, you do not |
| Tx:12.37 | recognized. If you see your own hatred as your brother, you are not | seeing him. Everyone draws nigh unto what he loves and recoils from |
| Tx:12.42 | Do not seek vision through your eyes, for you made your way of | seeing that you might see in darkness, and in this you are deceived. |
| Tx:12.43 | emotions, and one you made and one was given you. Each is a way of | seeing, and different worlds arise from their different visions. See |
| Tx:12.43 | is given you, for through Christ's vision He beholds Himself. And | seeing what He is, He knows His Father. Beyond your darkest dreams, |
| Tx:12.44 | In the sanity of His vision, they looked upon themselves with love, | seeing themselves as the Holy Spirit sees them. And with this vision |
| Tx:12.54 | them as guides to peace, for you have made it manifest in them. And | seeing it, its beauty calls you home. |
| Tx:12.60 | see both worlds, for each of them involves a different kind of | seeing and depends on what you cherish. The sight of one is possible |
| Tx:13.47 | you do not know it. But you have the means for learning it and | seeing it quite clearly. The Holy Spirit uses logic as easily and as |
| Tx:13.51 | Seeing is always outward. Were your thoughts wholly of you, the | |
| Tx:13.56 | The Holy Spirit, | seeing where you are but knowing you are elsewhere, begins His lesson |
| Tx:14.30 | it to you as you join your perception to His. Joining with Him in | seeing is the way in which you learn to share with Him the |
| Tx:14.31 | It is the recognition that nothing you see means anything alone. | Seeing with Him will show you that all meaning, including yours, |
| Tx:14.61 | cannot be seen, for it is nothing more than a condition in which | seeing becomes impossible. You who have not yet brought all of the |
| Tx:14.67 | is changeless. The miracle acknowledges His changelessness by | seeing His Son as he always was and not as he would make himself. The |
| Tx:15.19 | You do not realize how much you have misused your brothers by | seeing them as sources of ego support. As a result, they witness to |
| Tx:15.86 | necessary process of looking straight at all the interference and | seeing it exactly as it is. For it is impossible to recognize as |
| Tx:16.61 | lack of value of the special relationship if they were seen. For in | seeing them, the body would disappear because its value would be |
| Tx:16.61 | because its value would be lost. And so your whole investment in | seeing it would be withdrawn from it. You see the world you value. |
| Tx:17.7 | you learn to see it for yourself. And all His teaching leads to | seeing it and giving thanks with Him. |
| Tx:17.23 | true. You have made the relationship unreal and therefore unholy by | seeing it where it is not and as it is not. Give the past to Him Who |
| Tx:17.39 | you from the picture. And finally you look upon the picture itself, | seeing at last that, unprotected by the frame, it has no meaning. |
| Tx:19.3 | body thus becomes the instrument of illusion, acting accordingly; | seeing what is not there, hearing what truth has never said, and |
| Tx:19.10 | his errors, looking past all barriers between your self and his and | seeing them as one. And in that one you see your faith is fully |
| Tx:19.39 | Spirit's function here will be accomplished. What need is there for | seeing then? When God has taken the last step Himself, the Holy |
| Tx:19.39 | And the Father will accept them in His Name. What need is there of | seeing in the presence of His gratitude? |
| Tx:20.23 | the meaning of the universe. And of the one blind thing in all the | seeing universe of truth you ask, “How shall I look upon the Son of |
| Tx:20.65 | meaning, the means for its attainment will be evaluated as worth the | seeing, and so you will not see. |
| Tx:20.66 | is the Holy Spirit's goal. The means is vision. For what the | seeing look upon is sinless. No one who loves can judge, and what he |
| Tx:20.66 | make, for it was given him to see, as was the vision which made his | seeing possible. |
| Tx:20.72 | Its eyes adjust to sin, unable to overlook it in any form and | seeing it everywhere, in everything. Look through its eyes, and |
| Tx:21.37 | give each other can accomplish this. For He Who loves the world is | seeing it for you without one spot of sin upon it and in the |
| Tx:21.40 | it power to serve as means to help the blind to see. But in their | seeing, they look past it, as do you. The faith and the belief you |
| Tx:21.82 | the world of sin denies. And therefore those who look on sin are | seeing the denial of the real world. Yet the last question adds the |
| Tx:22.34 | not to see? For this the body's eyes are perfect means, but not for | seeing. See how the body's eyes rest on externals and cannot go |
| Tx:22.35 | there to see. And if you see it, you must be mistaken, for you are | seeing what can not be real as if it were. What cannot see beyond |
| Tx:22.57 | What form of suffering could block your sight, preventing you from | seeing past it? And what illusion could there be you will not |
| Tx:24.63 | its acknowledgment. The holiness in you belongs to him. And by your | seeing it in him, returns to you. All of the tribute you have given |
| Tx:25.19 | your only function to behold in him what he sees not. And in this | seeing is the vision shared that looks on Christ instead of seeing |
| Tx:25.19 | in this seeing is the vision shared that looks on Christ instead of | seeing death. |
| Tx:25.29 | And when you see them as the same, your choice is made. For it is | seeing them as one that brings release from the belief there are two |
| Tx:25.32 | no guilt. For they cannot attack, and they rejoice that this is so, | seeing their safety in this happy fact. Their joy is in the innocence |
| Tx:25.38 | are closed. But what is there to see by searching for your savior, | seeing Him through sightless eyes? |
| Tx:26.9 | Condemn him not by | seeing him within the rotting prison where he sees himself. It is |
| Tx:27.31 | it occupies be recognized as vacant, and the time devoted to its | seeing be perceived as idly spent, a time unoccupied. |

| Tx:28.14 | is causeless, making no effects at all. He has done nothing. And in | seeing this, he understands he never had a need for doing anything |
| Tx:28.46 | a sacrifice. But miracles are the result when you do not insist on | seeing in the gap what is not there. Your willingness to let |
| Tx:28.50 | are meaningless. It cannot see nor hear. It does not know what | seeing is, what listening is for. It is as little able to perceive as |
| Tx:29.50 | is for. And speed the end of idols in a world made sad and sick by | seeing idols there. Your holy minds are altars unto God, and where He |
| Tx:30.73 | His pardon could be real. Thus is the fear of God the sure result of | seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who sees himself as guilty can |
| Tx:30.93 | Then let there be no dreams about him which you would prefer to | seeing this. And you will see the Christ in him because you let Him |
| Tx:31.21 | of God who calls to you. Christ calls to all with equal tenderness, | seeing no leaders and no followers and hearing but one answer to them |
| Tx:31.35 | begins to see how like they are to one another. Men have died on | seeing this because they saw no way except the pathways offered by |
| Tx:31.82 | with eyes unopened. And they cannot see until he looks on them with | seeing eyes and offers them forgiveness with his own. Can you to whom |

| W1:59.5 | if I am to see, it must be through Him. I have tried to define what | seeing is, and I have been wrong. Now it is given me to understand |
| W1:78.4 | be blind to him; we will not look upon our grievances. So is the | seeing of the world reversed, as we look out toward truth, away from |
| W1:78.6 | He will be the one of whom we ask God's Son be shown to us. Through | seeing him behind the grievances that we have held against him, you |

| W1:92.4 | Strength overlooks these things by | seeing past appearances. It keeps its steady gaze upon the light that |
| W1:92.9 | The strength in you will offer you the light and guide your | seeing, so you do not dwell on idle shadows that the body's eyes |
| W1:92.10 | Leave, then, the dark a little while today, and we will practice | seeing in the light, closing the body's eyes and asking truth to show |

| W1:158.11 | holiness; its likeness shines with its immortal love. We practice | seeing with the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts we give, |
| W1:161.2 | thus could it invent the partial world you see. The purpose of all | seeing is to show you what you wish to see. All hearing but brings to |
| W1:161.7 | no death. Fear is insatiable, consuming everything its eyes behold, | seeing itself in everything, compelled to turn upon itself and to |
| W1:161.12 | which he makes so frequently. Then think of this—what you are | seeing now conceals from you the sight of one who can forgive you all |
| W1:165.5 | For this sight proves that you have exchanged your blindness for the | seeing eyes of Christ; your mind has come to lay aside denial and |
| W1:170.9 | from abject slavery. You make a choice, standing before this idol, | seeing him exactly as he is. Will you restore to love what you have |
| W1:R5.8 | have no meaning. Yet a savior must remain with those he teaches, | seeing what they see, but still retaining in his mind the way that |
| W1:181.9 | goes beyond mistakes, we will behold a wholly sinless world. When | seeing this is all we want to see, when this is all we seek for in |

| Tx:19.50 | love and gentleness. The messengers of fear are harshly ordered to | seek out guilt and cherish every scrap of evil and of sin which they |
| Tx:19.52 | bring you word of bones and skin and flesh. They have been taught to | seek for the corruptible and to return with gorges filled with things |
| Tx:19.71 | It is impossible to | seek for pleasure through the body and not find pain. It is essential |
| Tx:19.77 | have no hold at all except on those who are attracted to it and | seek it out. And so it is with death. Made by the ego, its dark |
| Tx:19.102 | yet your savior stands beside each one. Let him be what he is and | seek not to make of love an enemy. |
| Tx:19.108 | given to you eternally by Him. Here is the rest and quiet that you | seek, the reason for the journey from its beginning. Heaven is the |
| Tx:20.22 | sin, but the belief that made it as you see it is not outside you. | Seek not to make the Son of God adjust to his insanity. There is a |
| Tx:20.48 | mysteries are kept obscure and hidden from the sun. It does not | seek for power, but for relationships. The body is the ego's chosen |
| Tx:21.1 | inward condition. As a man thinketh, so does he perceive. Therefore, | seek not to change the world, but will to change your mind about the |
| Tx:21.34 | You made perception that you might choose among your brothers and | seek for sin with them. The Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to |
| Tx:21.37 | that sacrifice brings nothing. He makes no bargains. And if you | seek to limit Him, you will hate Him because you are afraid. The gift |
| Tx:21.73 | no weapons, and it has no enemy. Yes, it can overrun the world and | seek an enemy. But it can never find what is not there. Yes, it can |
| Tx:21.74 | he admit that no one made him powerless? Reason would surely bid him | seek no longer what is not there to find. Yet first he must be |
| Tx:22.16 | its nothingness. Yet in these dark and heavy garments are those who | seek illusions covered and hidden from the joy of truth. |
| Tx:22.17 | joy could be the opposite of misery? To leave one kind of misery and | seek another is hardly an escape. To change illusions is to make no |
| Tx:22.51 | No one but yearns for freedom and tries to find it. Yet he will | seek for it where he believes it is and can be found. He will believe |
| Tx:22.58 | you have asked what is your function here and have been answered. | Seek not to change it nor to substitute another goal. [This one was |
| Tx:23.17 | How can the resting-place of God turn on itself and | seek to overcome the One Who dwells there? And think what happens |

| Tx:24.33 | Deny them not. They ask of you but that your will be done. They | seek your love that you may love yourself. Love not your specialness |
| Tx:24.40 | takes joy in what it sees, although it is not true. Yet what you | seek for is a source of joy as you conceive it. What you wish is true |
| Tx:24.43 | it. For what can specialness delight in but to kill? What does it | seek for but the sight of death? Where does it lead but to |
| Tx:24.47 | You who would be content with specialness and | seek salvation in a war with love, consider this: the holy Lord of |
| Tx:24.64 | claims you instead? How can you fail to know it is in his holiness? | Seek not to make your specialness the truth, for if it were, you |
| Tx:25.5 | your death. And would you not despise the one who tells you this and | seek his death instead? The message and the messenger are one. And |
| Tx:25.13 | you hopeless. Yet is this hopelessness your choice, while you would | seek for hope where none is ever found. |
| Tx:25.32 | happy fact. Their joy is in the innocence they see. And thus they | seek for it because it is their purpose to behold it and rejoice. |
| Tx:25.73 | of no injustice. He would not allow His Son be judged by those who | seek his death and could not see his worth at all. What honest |
| Tx:25.73 | the Son He loves and would protect from all unfairness you might | seek to offer, believing vengeance is his proper due. |
| Tx:25.84 | Salvation cannot | seek to help God's Son be more unfair than he has sought to be. If |
| Tx:25.85 | your right to them because you were unjust to one with equal rights. | Seek to deny, and you will feel denied. Seek to deprive, and you have |
| Tx:25.85 | to one with equal rights. Seek to deny, and you will feel denied. | Seek to deprive, and you have been deprived. A miracle can never be |
| Tx:26.45 | from your welcoming embrace. Without Him you are friendless. | Seek not another friend to take His place. There is no other friend. |
| Tx:26.74 | Why are not its effects apparent then? Why in the future? And you | seek to be content with sighing and with “reasoning” you do not |

| Tx:26.88 | Is it not retribution for your own attack upon the Son of God you | seek? Is it not safer to believe that you are innocent of this and |
| Tx:26.89 | you perceive one purpose for your whole relationship. And this you | seek to add unto the purpose given it. The Holy Spirit's purpose is |
| Tx:27.4 | him. The sick are merciless to everyone, and in contagion do they | seek to kill. Death seems an easy price if they can say, “Behold me, |
| Tx:27.9 | grave. If this were true, there would be reason to remain content to | seek for passing joys and cherish little pleasures where you can. Yet |
| Tx:27.67 | upon yourself begun. And it is this the world bears witness to. | Seek not another cause nor look among the mighty legions of its |
| Tx:28.5 | The Holy Spirit's use of memory is quite apart from time. He does not | seek to use it as a means to keep the past, but rather as a way to |
| Tx:28.6 | It works hand in hand with all the other attributes with which you | seek to keep concealed the truth about yourself. Time neither takes |
| Tx:28.54 | not judged itself nor made itself to be what it is not. It does not | seek to make of pain a joy and look for lasting pleasure in the dust. |
| Tx:28.56 | and loathe and want, the body does not know. You send it forth to | seek for separation and to be a separate thing. And then you hate it, |
| Tx:29.37 | changelessness is found. Let us be glad indeed that this is so and | seek not the eternal in this world. Forgiving dreams are means to |
| Tx:29.43 | Seek not outside yourself. For it will fail, and you will weep each | |
| Tx:29.43 | answer you can substitute and find the happiness His answer brings. | Seek not outside yourself. For all your pain comes simply from a |
| Tx:29.43 | or happy? Be you glad that you are told where happiness abides and | seek no longer elsewhere. You will fail. But it is given you to know |
| Tx:29.43 | You will fail. But it is given you to know the truth and not to | seek for it outside yourself. |

| Tx:29.45 | The lingering illusion will impel him to | seek out a thousand idols and to seek beyond them for a thousand |
| Tx:29.45 | illusion will impel him to seek out a thousand idols and to | seek beyond them for a thousand more. And each will fail him, all |
| Tx:29.45 | but his death. Its form appears to be outside himself. Yet does he | seek to kill God's Son within and prove that he is victor over him. |
| Tx:29.46 | and to have suffered loss. And by this giving up is life renounced. | Seek not outside yourself. The search implies you are not whole |
| Tx:29.46 | whole within and fear to look upon your devastation and prefer to | seek outside yourself for what you are. |
| Tx:29.47 | and what would you expect but to perceive the signs of death you | seek? No sadness and no suffering proclaims a message other than an |
| Tx:29.48 | lies in Him. No idol takes His place. Look not to idols. Do not | seek outside yourself. Let us forget the purpose of the world the |
| Tx:29.51 | the place of God. Let Him remind you of His love for you, and do not | seek to drown His Voice in chants of deep despair to idols of |
| Tx:29.51 | to drown His Voice in chants of deep despair to idols of yourself. | Seek not outside your Father for your hope. For hope of happiness is |
| Tx:29.53 | who has not enslaved himself to littleness and loss. And thus must | seek beyond his little self for strength to raise his head and stand |
| Tx:29.59 | idols. No one comes unless he worshiped them and still attempts to | seek for one that yet might offer him a gift reality does not |
| Tx:29.60 | than Heaven can you never have. If Heaven is within, why would you | seek for idols which would make of Heaven less, to give you more than |
| Tx:29.61 | must be to let himself bow down in worship to what has no life and | seek for power in the powerless. What happened to the holy Son of God |
| Tx:29.66 | There is a time when childhood should be passed and gone forever. | Seek not to retain the toys of children. Put them all away, for you |
| Tx:29.68 | are not made to separate the mind from what it thinks. They do not | seek to prove the dream is being dreamed by someone else. And in |
| Tx:30.1 | practice them awhile, until they are the rules by which you live. We | seek to make them habits now, so you will have them ready for |
| Tx:30.39 | It is not form you | seek. What form can be a substitute for God the Father's love? What |
| Tx:30.39 | is not your will to have one. It will not bestow on you the gift you | seek. When you decide upon the form of what you want, you lose the |
| Tx:30.40 | for completion. Wholeness has no form because it is unlimited. To | seek a special person or a thing to add to you to make yourself |
| Tx:30.42 | Completion is the function of God's Son. He has no need to | seek for it at all. Beyond all idols stands his holy will to be but |
| Tx:30.46 | nor the time which keeps this star invisible to earth. But those who | seek for idols cannot know this star is there. |
| Tx:30.55 | unreal as reality. You are but asked to let your will be done and | seek no longer for the things you do not want. And you are asked to |
| Tx:30.55 | to let yourself be free of all the dreams of what you never were and | seek no more to substitute the strength of idle wishes for the Will |
| Tx:31.7 | you can make that ever will succeed. There is no joy that you can | seek for here and hope to find. Yet this is not the only outcome |
| Tx:31.34 | nothingness, and death. There is no choice in its alternatives. | Seek not escape from problems here. The world was made that problems |
| Tx:31.36 | Why would you | seek to try another road, another person, or another place when you |
| Tx:31.36 | the world. But do not judge the lesson which is but begun with this. | Seek not another signpost in the world which seems to point to still |
| Tx:31.37 | real futility? Is it not needful that he should begin with this, to | seek another way instead? For while he sees a choice where there is |
| Tx:31.50 | yourself, that you will choose to follow this world's laws and never | seek to go beyond its roads nor realize the way you see yourself. Now |
| Tx:31.53 | go if either one were ever raised to doubt. The Holy Spirit does not | seek to throw you into panic. So He merely asks if just a little |
| Tx:31.57 | Seek not your Self in symbols. There can be no concept that can stand | |
| Tx:31.68 | Learning is change. Salvation does not | seek to use a means as yet too alien to your thinking to be helpful |
| W1:16.4 | search your mind for a minute or so, with eyes closed, and actively | seek not to overlook any “little” thought which tends to elude the |
| W1:45.4 | applying yesterday's idea. We will attempt to leave the unreal and | seek for the real. We will deny the world in favor of truth. We will |
| W1:71.6 | for salvation works simply because, by following His direction, you | seek for salvation where it is. But if you are to succeed, as God |
| W1:71.6 | you are to succeed, as God promises you will, you must be willing to | seek there only. Otherwise your purpose is divided, and you will |
| W1:72.7 | To this carefully prepared arena, where angry animals | seek for prey and mercy cannot enter, the ego comes to save you. God |
| W1:72.14 | learn. “What is salvation, Father?” Ask and you will be answered. | Seek and you will find. |
| W1:73.6 | want to weep and suffer and die? Forget the ego's arguments which | seek to prove all this is really Heaven. You know it is not so. You |
| W1:74.12 | retreat into withdrawal, even if you do not experience the peace you | seek. |
| W1:74.14 | There is no will but God's. I | seek His peace today. |
| W1:76.1 | so, you must first realize salvation lies not there. While you would | seek for it in things that have no meaning, you bind yourself to laws |
| W1:76.1 | meaning, you bind yourself to laws that make no sense. Thus do you | seek to prove salvation is where it is not. |
| W1:76.2 | be glad you cannot prove it. For if you could, you would forever | seek where it is not and never find it. The idea for today tells you |
| W1:77.6 | statement of a simple fact. You will receive the assurance that you | seek. |
| W1:96.13 | Then | seek its thoughts, and claim them as your own. |
| W1:98.1 | planned it be. We will not argue it is something else; we will not | seek for it where it is not. In gladness we accept it as it is and |
| W1:99.11 | Practice His thought today, and let His Light | seek out and lighten up all darkened spots and shine through them to |
| W1:101.2 | it is this they ask for, for they know it waits for them and it will | seek them out and find them somewhere, sometime, in some form which |
| W1:101.4 | Who would | seek out such savage punishment? Who would not flee salvation and |
| W1:102.6 | Then | seek this function deep within your mind, for it is there, awaiting |
| W1:103.7 | God, being Love, is also happiness. And it is happiness I | seek today. I cannot fail because I seek the truth. |
| W1:103.7 | happiness. And it is happiness I seek today. I cannot fail because I | seek the truth. |
| W1:104.5 | I | seek but what belongs to me in truth, and joy and peace are my |
| W1:104.6 | and sought for only in a world of dreams. All this we lay aside and | seek instead that which is truly ours, as we ask to recognize what |
| W1:104.8 | not let ourselves lose sight of them between the times we come to | seek for them where He has laid them. This reminder will we bring to |
| W1:104.9 | I | seek but what belongs to me in truth. God's gifts of joy and peace |
| W1:107.7 | light, in obvious accessibility. It is impossible that anyone could | seek it truly and would not succeed. |
| W1:109.2 | and quiet, peace and stillness, and the safety and the happiness you | seek. “I rest in God.” This thought has power to wake the sleeping |
| W1:110.8 | discover in your mind the Self Who is the holy Son of God Himself. | Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of God and brother |
| W1:110.10 | Seek Him today, and find Him. He will be your savior from all idols | |
| W1:117.3 | [104] I | seek but what belongs to me in truth. Love is my heritage and with it |
| W1:117.7 | I | seek but what belongs to me in truth. |
| W1:122.4 | kept can hold more hope than what forgiveness brings? Why would you | seek an answer other than the answer that will answer everything? |
| W1:122.5 | Here is the answer! | Seek for it no more. You will not find another one instead. God's |
| W1:122.9 | will be the day salvation will be ours. Earnestly and gladly will we | seek for it today, aware we hold the key within our hands, accepting |
| W1:126.10 | your eyes upon the world which does not understand forgiveness and | seek sanctuary in the quiet place where thoughts are changed and |
| W1:127.5 | but violates the truth of what love is, and what you are as well. | Seek not within the world to find your Self. Love is not found in |
| W1:128.3 | value you make part of you as you perceive yourself. All things you | seek to make your value greater in your sight limit you further, hide |
| W1:128.6 | above the world when you release your mind from chains and let it | seek the level where it finds itself at home. It will be grateful to |
| W1:129.6 | but for your choosing it to take the place of all the things you | seek but do not want. |
| W1:130.5 | Today we will not | seek for them nor waste this day in seeking not what cannot be found. |
| W1:130.5 | is impossible to see two worlds which have no overlap of any kind. | Seek for the one; the other disappears. But one remains. They are the |
| W1:130.8 | asking for a strength beyond your own, and recognize what it is you | seek. You do not want illusions. And you come to these five minutes |
| W1:130.13 | It is impossible to see two worlds. I | seek my freedom and deliverance, and this is not a part of what I |
| W1:131.1 | Failure is all about you while you | seek for goals that cannot be achieved. You look for permanence in |
| W1:131.3 | to death because it is the search for nothingness, and while you | seek for life you ask for death. You look for safety and security |
| W1:131.5 | can fail to want this goal and reach it in the end. God's Son cannot | seek vainly, though he try to force delay, deceive himself, and think |
| W1:131.6 | timeless, and unchanging Love. You will find Heaven. Everything you | seek but this will fall away, yet not because it has been taken from |
| W1:131.13 | and think a different kind of thought from those I made. The world I | seek I did not make alone. The thoughts I want to think are not my |
| W1:131.15 | Seek for that door and find it. But before you try to open it, remind | |
| W1:131.15 | before this door you really want, and only what lies past it do you | seek. |
| W1:131.19 | Today I | seek and find all that I want. My single purpose offers it to me. No |
| W1:133.16 | I will not value what is valueless, and only what has value do I | seek, for only that do I desire to find. |
| W1:136.13 | make appeal to might nor triumph. It does not command obedience nor | seek to prove how pitiful and futile are your attempts to plan |
| W1:138.5 | as it is accepted, it is known. But knowledge is beyond the goals we | seek to teach within the framework of this course. Ours are teaching |
| W1:140.6 | cures. It does not make distinctions among unrealities. Nor does it | seek to heal what is not sick, unmindful where the need for healing |
| W1:140.7 | Let us not try today to | seek to cure what cannot suffer sickness. Healing must be sought but |
| W1:140.8 | Today we | seek to change our minds about the source of sickness, for we seek a |
| W1:140.8 | we seek to change our minds about the source of sickness, for we | seek a cure for all illusions, not another shift among them. We will |
| W1:140.8 | as our own thoughts—so close it is impossible to lose. We need but | seek it, and it must be found. |
| W1:154.10 | It is this joining that we undertake to recognize today. We will not | seek to keep our minds apart from Him Who speaks for us, for it is |
| W1:181.3 | become apparent. We instruct our minds that it is this we | seek and only this, for just a little while. We do not care about our |
| W1:181.3 | this interval of time wherein we practice changing our intent. We | seek for innocence and nothing else. We seek for it with no concern |
| W1:181.3 | changing our intent. We seek for innocence and nothing else. We | seek for it with no concern but now. |
| W1:181.8 | use these thoughts to keep us safe throughout the day. We do not | seek for long range goals. As each obstruction seems to block the |
| W1:181.8 | As each obstruction seems to block the vision of our sinlessness, we | seek but for surcease an instant from the misery the focus upon sin |
| W1:181.9 | Nor do we ask for fantasies. For what we | seek to look upon is really there. And as our focus goes beyond |
| W1:181.9 | world. When seeing this is all we want to see, when this is all we | seek for in the name of true perception, are the eyes of Christ |
| W1:181.10 | sin and never could conceive of anything without Its sinlessness. We | seek for this remembrance as we turn our minds to practicing today. |
| W1:185.10 | You want the peace of God. And so do all who seem to | seek for dreams. For them as well as for yourself you ask but this |
| W1:185.10 | to what they really want and join your own intent with what they | seek above all things, perhaps unknown to them, but sure to you. You |
| W1:185.14 | It is this one intent we | seek today, uniting our desires with the need of every heart, the |
| W1:188.1 | Why wait for Heaven? Those who | seek the light are merely covering their eyes. The light is in them |
| W1:189.6 | Today we pass illusions as we | seek to reach to what is true in us and feel Its all-embracing |
| W1:190.9 | your throat, and put aside the withering assaults with which you | seek to hide your holiness. Here will you understand there is no |
| W1:198.4 | plan of God Himself? And why would you oppose it, quarrel with it, | seek to find a thousand ways in which it must be wrong, a thousand |
| W1:199.1 | as you perceive a body as yourself. The body is a limit. Who would | seek for freedom in a body looks for it where it cannot be found. The |
| W1:199.6 | The Holy Spirit is the home of minds that | seek for freedom. In Him they find what they have sought. The body's |
| W1:200.1 | Seek you no further. You will not find peace except the peace of God. | |
| W1:200.1 | bleak despair, and sense of icy hopelessness and doubt. | Seek you no further. There is nothing else for you to find except the |
| W1:200.1 | is nothing else for you to find except the peace of God, unless you | seek for misery and pain. |
| W1:200.3 | be true can only fail. Forgive yourself for vain imaginings, and | seek no longer what you cannot find. For what could be more foolish |
| W1:200.3 | longer what you cannot find. For what could be more foolish than to | seek and seek and seek again for hell, when you have but to look with |
| W1:200.3 | you cannot find. For what could be more foolish than to seek and | seek and seek again for hell, when you have but to look with open |
| W1:200.3 | find. For what could be more foolish than to seek and seek and | seek again for hell, when you have but to look with open eyes to find |
| W1:200.7 | have reality because it never was created. Is it here that he would | seek for peace? Or must he see that, as he looks on it, the world can |
| W1:200.10 | Now is there silence. | Seek no further. You have come to where the road is carpeted with |
| W1:200.11 | Today we | seek no idols. Peace cannot be found in them. The peace of God is |
| W1:200.11 | purpose and companionship. For peace is union if it be of God. We | seek no further. We are close to home and draw still nearer every |
| W1:205.1 | of God is my one goal; the aim of all my living here, the end I | seek, my purpose and my function and my life while I abide where I am |
| W1:211.1 | I am the holy Son of God Himself. In silence and in true humility, I | seek God's glory to behold it in the Son whom He created as my Self. |
| W1:212.1 | [192] I have a function God would have me fill. I | seek the function that would set me free from all the vain illusions |
| W1:212.1 | Only the function God has given me can offer freedom. Only this I | seek, and only this will I accept as mine. I am not a body. I am |
| W2:I.1 | We use them but as guides on which we do not now depend. For now we | seek direct experience of truth alone. The lessons which remain are |
| W2:221.1 | Father, I come to You today to | seek the peace that You alone can give. I come in silence. In the |
| W2:225.2 | will never leave you. We are one, and it is but this oneness that we | seek as we accomplish these few final steps which end a journey that |
| W2:229.1 | I | seek my own Identity and find it in these words: “Love, Which created |
| W2:229.1 | in these words: “Love, Which created me, is what I am.” Now need I | seek no more. Love has prevailed. So still it waited for my coming |
| W2:230.2 | Father, I | seek the peace You gave as mine in my creation. What was given then |
| W2:231.1 | What can I | seek for, Father, but Your Love? Perhaps I think I seek for something |
| W2:231.1 | What can I seek for, Father, but Your Love? Perhaps I think I | seek for something else—a something I have called by many names. |
| W2:231.1 | I have called by many names. Yet is Your Love the only thing I | seek or ever sought. For there is nothing else that I could ever |
| W2:231.2 | One as well Who is our Father. To remember Him is Heaven. This we | seek. And only this is what it will be given us to find. |
| W2:WIW.3 | born instead. And now they go to find what has been given them to | seek. Their aim is to fulfill the purpose which the world was made to |
| W2:WIS.2 | Truth can be its aim as well as lies. The senses then will | seek instead for witnesses to what is true. |
| W2:251.1 | I sought for many things and found despair. Now do I | seek but one, for in that one is all I need and only what I need. All |
| W2:258.2 | goal but this. What could we want but to remember You? What could we | seek but our Identity? |
| W2:259.2 | I would not be insane today. I would not be afraid of love nor | seek for refuge in its opposite. For love can have no opposite. You |
| W2:261.1 | the citadel where I am safe and cannot be attacked. Let me today | seek not security in danger, nor attempt to find my peace in |
| W2:261.2 | Let me not | seek for idols. I would come, my Father, home to You today. I choose |
| W2:268.2 | is free of loss. Only reality is wholly safe. And it is only this we | seek today. |
| W2:WIC.5 | goal of the Atonement has been reached at last? So therefore let us | seek to find Christ's face and look on nothing else. As we behold His |
| W2:271.1 | upon what Christ would have me see, to listen to God's Voice, and | seek the witnesses to what is true in God's creation. In Christ's |
| W2:275.1 | any other day. Yet has this day been chosen as the time when we will | seek and hear and learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For the |
| W2:287.1 | gift could I prefer before the peace of God? What treasure would I | seek and find and keep that can compare with my Identity? And would I |
| W2:290.1 | belief the dream I made is real an instant longer. This the day I | seek my present happiness and look on nothing else except the thing I |
| W2:290.1 | my present happiness and look on nothing else except the thing I | seek. |
| W2:290.2 | I come to You and ask Your strength to hold me up today while I but | seek to do Your Will. You cannot fail to hear me, Father. What I ask |
| W2:292.1 | ending certain. For God's Will is done in earth and Heaven. We will | seek and we will find according to His Will, which guarantees that |
| W2:296.2 | hell when we allow His teaching to persuade the world through us to | seek and find the easy path to God! |
| W2:300.1 | cloud upon a sky eternally serene. And it is this serenity we | seek, unclouded, obvious, and sure today. |
| W2:300.2 | We | seek Your holy world today. For we, Your loving Sons, have lost our |
| W2:302.2 | beside us, showing us the way. He fails in nothing. He the end we | seek, and He the means by which we come to Him. |
| W2:318.1 | sinlessness which God has placed in me. I was created as the thing I | seek. I am the goal the world is searching for. I am God's Son, His |
| W2:319.1 | by lies. Only the ego can be limited, and therefore it must | seek for aims which are curtailed and limiting. The ego thinks that |
| W2:WIE.2 | and trembles at the figures in its dreams, its enemies who | seek to murder it before it can ensure its safety by attacking them. |
| W2:334.2 | I | seek but the eternal. For Your Son can be content with nothing less |
| W2:346.1 | as I will share eternity, for time has stepped aside today. I do not | seek the things of time, and so I will not look upon them. What I |
| W2:346.1 | seek the things of time, and so I will not look upon them. What I | seek today transcends all laws of time and things perceived in time. |
| W2:349.1 | I liberate all things I see and give to them the freedom that I | seek. For thus do I obey the law of love and give what I would find |
| W2:WAI.3 | as brothers and perceive all things as kindly and as good. We do not | seek a function that is past the gates of Heaven. Knowledge will |
| W2:WAI.5 | our minds are changed about the aim for which we came and which we | seek to serve. We bring glad tidings to the Son of God, who thought |
| W2:FL.1 | but at the beginning of our practicing and only to remind us that we | seek to go beyond them. Let us turn to Him Who leads the way and |
| W2:FL.3 | is the goal that God has given us. It is His ending to the dream we | seek, and not our own. For all that we forgive we will not fail to |
| W2:E.3 | Voice for God and for your Self when you retire from the world, to | seek Reality instead. He will direct your efforts, telling you |
| M:4.10 | “go” anywhere if peace of mind is already complete? And who would | seek to change tranquility for something more desirable? What could |
| M:4.19 | only lose because of it. He could not gain. Therefore he does not | seek what only he could keep, because that is a guarantee of loss. He |
| M:5.10 | have the same purpose and therefore are not really different. They | seek for God's Voice in this brother who would so deceive himself as |

| Tx:15.24 | one which you must learn to remember all the time. The lesson will | seem hard at first, but you will learn to love it when you realize |
| Tx:15.70 | attack as love. Yet to make guilty is direct attack but does not | seem to be. For the guilty expect attack, and having asked for it, |

| Tx:17.17 | The shadow figures enter more and more, and the one in whom they | seem to be decreases in importance. |
| Tx:17.45 | This is accomplished very rapidly, but it makes the relationship | seem disturbed, disjunctive, and even quite distressing. The reason |
| Tx:17.50 | blame each other for the “failure” of your relationship, for it will | seem at times to have no purpose. A sense of aimlessness will come to |
| Tx:17.63 | to take this aspect elsewhere and resolve it there. And it will | seem to be successful, except that this attempt conflicts with unity |
| Tx:18.6 | in reality. And above all, be not afraid of it. When you | seem to see some twisted form of the original error rise to frighten |

| Tx:18.75 | the strange position in which those in a world inhabited by bodies | seem to be. Each body seems to house a separate mind, a disconnected |
| Tx:18.86 | From the world of bodies, made by insanity, insane messages | seem to be returned to the mind which made it. And these messages |
| Tx:18.91 | you that it is all there. Figures stand out and move about, actions | seem real, and forms appear and shift from loveliness to the |
| Tx:19.4 | centered on the body to stand between you. And the body will | seem to be sick, for you have made of it an “enemy” of healing and |
| Tx:19.5 | Son of God and his Creator; faith would remove all obstacles that | seem to rise between them. Faithlessness is wholly dedicated to |
| Tx:19.22 | This is the strange illusion which makes the clouds of guilt | seem heavy and impenetrable. The solidness this world's foundation |
| Tx:19.32 | proof of separation seems to be everywhere. And God and His creation | seem to be split apart and overthrown. For sin would prove what God |
| Tx:19.37 | many obstacles. Some of them you will try to impose. Others will | seem to arise from elsewhere—from your brothers and from various |
| Tx:19.52 | decayed and rotted. To them such things are beautiful because they | seem to allay their savage pangs of hunger. For they are frantic with |
| Tx:19.69 | no purpose of itself, but only what is given to it. The body will | seem to be whatever is the means for reaching the goal that you |
| Tx:19.83 | The body can but serve your purpose. As you look upon it, so will it | seem to be. Death, were it true, would be the final and complete |
| Tx:19.93 | See how the belief in death would | seem to “save” you. For if this is gone, what can you fear but life? |
| Tx:19.93 | can you fear but life? It is the attraction of death that makes life | seem to be ugly, cruel, and tyrannical. You are no more afraid of |
| Tx:19.100 | compassion but not with fear. For only if they share in it does it | seem fearful, and you do share in it until you look upon each other |
| Tx:20.5 | made for its pleasure and remember all these were made to make | seem lovely what you hate. Would you employ this hated thing to draw |
| Tx:20.50 | fear within your brother and would not see in him is what makes God | seem fearful to you and kept unknown. |
| Tx:20.62 | is the means by which the ego tries to make the unholy relationship | seem real. The unholy instant is the time of bodies. But the purpose |
| Tx:20.64 | is it valued as a separate thing apart from the intention. The means | seem real because the goal is valued. And judgment has no value |
| Tx:20.65 | to see him not in darkness, for your imaginings about him will | seem real there. You closed your eyes to shut him out. Such was your |
| Tx:20.71 | little the perfect choice to call upon for strength? Judgment will | seem to make your savior weak. Yet it is you who need his strength. |
| Tx:20.73 | understood you made it up? What if you realized that those who | seem to walk about in it, to sin and die, attack and murder and |

| Tx:21.24 | of the power of wanting, and therefore of faith, to make its goals | seem real and possible. Faith in the unreal leads to adjustments of |
| Tx:21.46 | wish to look within, you do not want. A few remaining trinkets still | seem to shine and catch your eye. Yet you would not “sell” Heaven to |
| Tx:21.51 | obvious response to calls for help, the only one It makes. Miracles | seem unnatural to the ego because it does not understand how separate |
| Tx:21.66 | salvation—the gift of Heaven, not the gift of fear. Does Heaven | seem to be a burden to you? In madness, yes. And yet what madness |
| Tx:21.72 | Frantic and loud and strong the dark ones | seem to be. Yet they know not their enemy, except they hate him. In |
| Tx:21.76 | that truth may be the enemy you yet may find. Here, then, would | seem to be the last remaining hope of finding sin and not accepting |
| Tx:21.85 | Are thoughts then dangerous? To bodies, yes! The thoughts that | seem to kill are those which teach the thinker that he can be killed. |

| Tx:22.60 | place, unmovable and solid as a rock. While this remains, so will it | seem to be. |
| Tx:22.63 | you are different. From the position of what you understand, you | seem to be and therefore can attack. Of the alternatives, this seems |
| Tx:23.8 | it be more than madness. And fear will reign in madness and will | seem to have replaced love there. This is the conflict's purpose. And |
| Tx:23.8 | purpose. And to those who think that it is possible, the means | seem real. |

| Tx:24.24 | The hope of specialness makes it | seem possible God made the body as the prison-house which keeps His |

| Tx:25.35 | it would do for you. Your “evil” thoughts that haunt you now will | seem increasingly remote and far away from you. And they go farther |
| Tx:25.50 | on its changelessness the world depends. The magic of the world can | seem to hide the pain of sin from sinners and deceive with glitter |
| Tx:26.12 | and time, or any attribute which you perceive that makes each one | seem different from the rest. Think not the limits you impose on what |
| Tx:26.30 | A little hindrance can | seem large indeed to those who do not understand that miracles are |
| Tx:26.49 | reality must be. Ideas leave not their source, and their effects but | seem to be apart from them. Ideas are of the mind. What is projected |
| Tx:26.52 | impossibility. Yet the belief that it is real has made some errors | seem forever past the hope of healing and the lasting grounds for |
| Tx:26.56 | for Heaven as a preference to this world which death and desolation | seem to rule. In joyous answer will creation rise within you to |
| Tx:26.59 | why. Effects are seen as separate from their source and | seem to be beyond you to control or to prevent. What is thus kept |
| Tx:26.62 | And from their purpose, they derive whatever meaning that they | seem to have. God gave to all illusions that were made another |
| Tx:26.70 | interval between the time in which forgiveness is withheld and given | seem dangerous, with terror justified. |
| Tx:26.73 | Yet the acceptance of the working out can | seem to take forever. The change of purpose the Holy Spirit brought |
| Tx:27.23 | [In a split mind, identity must | seem to be divided. Nor can anyone perceive a function unified which |
| Tx:27.24 | the one you cherish and you think is yours. Thus does your function | seem divided, with a half in opposition to a half. And these two |
| Tx:27.47 | be feared. But if you shrink from blessing will the world indeed | seem fearful, for you have withheld its peace and comfort, leaving it |

| Tx:29.3 | this one still remains to block your path and make the way to light | seem dark and fearful, perilous and bleak. You had decided that your |

| Tx:29.10 | an easy path, so clearly marked it is impossible to lose the way, | seem thorny, rough, and far too difficult for you to follow? Is it |
| Tx:29.16 | change with time, with sickness or with health, and with events that | seem to alter it. Yet this but means the mind remains unchanged in |
| Tx:29.29 | else. Perceptions are determined by their purpose in that they | seem to be what they are for. A shadow figure who attacks becomes a |
| Tx:29.36 | him instead of dreaming evil separate dreams of hate. Why does it | seem so hard to share this dream? Because unless the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:29.62 | So must he judge not, and he will waken. For the dream will | seem to last while he is part of it. Judge not, for he who judges |
| Tx:29.65 | to the toys instead. And their reality becomes his own because they | seem to save him from his thoughts. Yet do they keep his thoughts |
| Tx:29.66 | who does not know what hurts and what will heal. And bad things | seem to happen, and he is afraid of all the chaos in a world he |
| Tx:30.44 | Thoughts | seem to come and go. Yet all this means is that you are sometimes |
| Tx:30.51 | he made for his enjoyment. So there still are rules which they can | seem to break and frighten him. Yet is he at the mercy of his toys? |
| Tx:30.52 | All illusions that you believe about yourself obey no laws. They | seem to dance a little while, according to the rules you set for |
| Tx:30.91 | What is temptation but a wish to make illusions real? It does not | seem to be the wish that no reality be so. Yet it is an assertion |
| Tx:31.34 | it is here that all its roads will lead, however differently they | seem to start, however differently they seem to go. Their end is |
| Tx:31.34 | however differently they seem to start, however differently they | seem to go. Their end is certain, for there is no choice among them. |
| Tx:31.35 | you really learn they are but one. The roads this world can offer | seem to be quite large in number, but the time must come when |
| Tx:31.39 | away from it. This makes no sense and cannot be the way. To you who | seem to find this course to be too difficult to learn, let me repeat |
| Tx:31.58 | accuser will appear in many places and in many forms. And each will | seem to be accusing you. Yet have no fear it will not be undone. |
| W1:I.5 | Some of the ideas you will find hard to believe, and others will | seem quite startling. It does not matter. You are merely asked to |
| W1:5.1 | of the feeling in whatever term seems accurate to you. The upset may | seem to be fear, worry, depression, anxiety, anger, hatred, jealousy, |
| W1:8.5 | I | seem to be thinking about _____. |
| W1:8.7 | I | seem to be thinking about [name of person], about [name of object], |
| W1:12.5 | whatever descriptive terms happen to occur to you. If terms which | seem positive rather than negative occur to you, include them. For |
| W1:39.10 | to include a few short intervals in which you just relax and do not | seem to be thinking of anything. Sustained concentration is very |
| W1:42.7 | intrude. You may also reach a point where no thoughts at all | seem to come to mind. If such interferences occur, open your eyes and |
| W1:43.11 | which are clearly out of accord with today's idea, or if you | seem to be unable to think of anything, open your eyes, repeat the |

| W1:56.2 | myself as under constant attack? Pain, illness, loss, age, and death | seem to threaten me. All my hopes and wishes and plans appear to be |

| W1:64.2 | Nothing the body's eyes | seem to see can be anything but a form of temptation, since this was |
| W1:69.4 | layer of heavy dark clouds. You can see only the clouds because you | seem to be standing outside the circle and quite apart from it. |

| W1:81.3 | specific forms for applying today's idea when specific difficulties | seem to arise might be: |
| W1:90.5 | [80] Let me recognize my problems have been solved. I | seem to have problems only because I am misusing time. I believe that |
| W1:99.7 | of their form, their size, their depth, or any attribute they | seem to have: |
| W1:106.1 | If you will lay aside the ego's voice, however loudly it may | seem to call; if you will not accept its petty gifts which give you |
| W1:109.1 | of clashing dreams. We ask for safety and for happiness, although we | seem to look on danger and on sorrow. And we have the thought that |
| W1:129.5 | Value them not, and they will disappear. Esteem them, and they will | seem real to you. |
| W1:136.3 | you wave when truth appears to threaten what you would believe. They | seem to be unconscious but because of the rapidity with which you |
| W1:136.5 | of the part you play in making your “reality” which makes defenses | seem to be beyond your own control. But what you have forgot can be |
| W1:136.6 | make facts unrecognizable. They aim at doing this, and this they | seem to do. Every defense takes fragments of the whole, assembles |
| W1:137.10 | around you or who cross your mind or whom you touch or those who | seem to have no contact with you healed along with you. Perhaps you |
| W1:138.2 | this strange perception of the truth that makes the choice of Heaven | seem to be the same as the relinquishment of hell. It is not really |
| W1:139.2 | himself? Only refusal to accept yourself could make the question | seem to be sincere. The only thing that can be surely known by any |
| W1:139.13 | the holy Son of God. And learn the fragile nature of the chains that | seem to keep the knowledge of yourself apart from your awareness, as |
| W1:151.2 | You do not | seem to doubt the world you see. You do not really question what is |
| W1:152.4 | truth appears to have some aspects that belie consistency but do not | seem to be but contradictions introduced by you. |
| W1:152.6 | accuse Him of insanity, to think He made a world where such things | seem to have reality. He is not mad. Yet only madness makes a world |
| W1:153.2 | but to defensiveness. For threat brings anger, anger makes attack | seem reasonable, honestly provoked, and righteous in the name of self |
| W1:155.5 | appointed for you now. You walk this path as others walk, nor do you | seem to be distinct from them although you are indeed. Thus can you |
| W1:155.8 | with a price. There is no cost, but only gain. Illusion can but | seem to hold in chains the holy Son of God. It is but from illusions |
| W1:155.13 | set upon the way that leads the world to God. Look not to ways which | seem to lead you elsewhere. Dreams are not a worthy guide for you who |
| W1:159.5 | you from this world into one made holy by forgiveness. Things which | seem quite solid here are merely shadows there, transparent, faintly |
| W1:161.4 | Do these words bring perfect clarity with them to you? What can they | seem to be but empty sounds, pretty, perhaps; correct in sentiment, |
| W1:163.2 | the lord of all illusions and deceptions, does the thought of death | seem mighty. For it seems to hold all living things within its |
| W1:165.1 | What makes this world | seem real except your own denial of the truth which lies beyond? What |
| W1:170.4 | depriving you of peace, splitting your mind into two camps which | seem wholly irreconcilable. For love now has an “enemy,” an opposite; |
| W1:182.1 | This world you | seem to live in is not home to you. And somewhere in your mind you |
| W1:185.7 | vain, requesting the eternal in the place of shifting dreams which | seem to change in what they offer, but are one in nothingness. |
| W1:185.10 | You want the peace of God. And so do all who | seem to seek for dreams. For them as well as for yourself you ask but |
| W1:186.3 | Today's idea may | seem quite sobering until you see its meaning. All it says is that |
| W1:186.8 | another for ourselves. Our self-made roles are shifting, and they | seem to change from mourner to ecstatic bliss of loved and loving. We |
| W1:190.7 | The world may | seem to cause you pain. And yet the world, as causeless, has no power |
| W1:191.2 | of frailty within you and without, no breath you draw that does not | seem to bring you nearer death, no hope you hold but will dissolve in |
| W1:193.10 | bondage? These are words which give you power over all events which | seem to have been given power over you. You see them rightly when you |
| W1:193.11 | else is failing to perceive the lesson he should learn? Does pain | seem real in the perception? If it does, be sure the lesson is not |

| W1:197.4 | joins with yours in thanking you. It does not matter if your gifts | seem lost and ineffectual. They are received where they are given. In |
| W2:235.1 | I need but look upon all things that | seem to hurt me and with perfect certainty assure myself, “God wills |
| W2:236.1 | I have a kingdom I must rule. At times, it does not | seem I am its king at all. It seems to triumph over me and tell me |
| W2:255.1 | It does not | seem to me that I can choose to have but peace today. And yet my God |
| W2:259.1 | Sin is the only thought that makes the goal of God | seem unobtainable. What else could blind us to the obvious and make |
| W2:259.1 | could blind us to the obvious and make the strange and the distorted | seem more clear? What else but sin engenders our attacks? What else |
| W2:263.2 | see through holy vision and the eyes of Christ. Let all appearances | seem pure to us that we may pass them by in innocence and walk |
| W2:278.1 | that I am prisoner within a body in a world in which all things that | seem to live appear to die, then is my Father prisoner with me. And |
| W2:293.1 | state, whose Source is here forever and forever. Can the world | seem bright and clear and safe and welcoming with all my past |

| W2:FL.1 | we would not return again to the belief in sin, which made the world | seem ugly and unsafe, attacking and destroying, dangerous in all its |
| M:I.5 | there would be no hope of salvation, for the world of sin would | seem forever “real.” The self-deceiving must deceive, for they must |

| M:3.2 | of teaching appears to be quite superficial. It consists of what | seem to be very casual encounters—a chance meeting of two apparent |
| M:3.5 | they become the saviors of the teachers who falter and may even | seem to fail. No teacher of God can fail to find the Help he needs. |
| M:4.5 | internally. And so the plan will sometimes call for changes in what | seem to be external circumstances. These changes are always helpful. |
| M:4.17 | more grotesque the dream, the fiercer and more powerful its defenses | seem to be. Yet when the teacher of God finally agrees to look past |
| M:5.5 | himself. The outcome is what he decides that it is. Special agents | seem to be ministering to him, yet they but give form to his own |
| M:8.3 | Where do all these differences come from? Certainly they | seem to be in the world outside. Yet it is surely the mind that |
| M:8.5 | And so it is with healing. The properties of illusions which | seem to make them different are really irrelevant, for their |
| M:8.6 | be healed will no longer acknowledge them. There will be those who | seem to be “sicker” than others, and the body's eyes will report |
| M:11.1 | to be impossible. Yet the Word of God promises other things that | seem impossible, as well as this. His Word has promised peace. It has |
| M:11.4 | judgment of the world escaped! It is not the world that makes peace | seem impossible. It is the world you see that is impossible. Yet has |
| M:13.7 | that is impossible. And in this situation the impossible can | seem to happen. It seems to happen at the “sacrifice” of truth. |
| M:14.2 | be destroyed nor attacked nor even touched. It will merely cease to | seem to be. |

| M:21.2 | As symbols, words have quite specific references. Even when they | seem most abstract, the picture that comes to mind is apt to be very |

| Tx:16.64 | to let go your hold on the distorted frame of reference which | seemed to hold your world together. This frame of reference is built |
| Tx:17.11 | all. Each spot His reason touches grows alive with beauty, and what | seemed ugly in the darkness of your lack of reason is suddenly |
| Tx:17.45 | accepted for it. In its unholy condition, your goal was all that | seemed to give it meaning. Now it seems to make no sense. Many |
| Tx:17.53 | mistakes? Or has your appreciation flickered and grown dim in what | seemed to be the light of the mistakes? You are now entering upon a |

| Tx:18.14 | you would have preferred. Here, you are “free” to make over whatever | seemed to attack you and change it into a tribute to your ego, which |
| Tx:18.24 | sleep. Each dream has led to other dreams, and every fantasy which | seemed to bring a light into the darkness but made the darkness |
| Tx:19.46 | no purpose now. Before the Holy Spirit entered to abide with you, it | seemed to have a mighty purpose; the fixed and unchangeable |
| Tx:19.47 | remnant of the belief in sin, is all that remains of what once | seemed to be the world. It is no longer an unrelenting barrier to |
| Tx:19.94 | the power of the attraction of what lies beyond. Your wanting fear | seemed to be holding them in place. Yet when you heard the voice of |
| Tx:20.25 | your strong companion, in whom the meaning of your freedom lies. He | seemed to be crucified beside you. And yet his holiness remained |
| Tx:20.52 | that the mad idea of making your relationship with God unholy | seemed to be possible, all your relationships were made meaningless. |
| Tx:20.52 | to house the mad idea and give it the illusion of reality. And so it | seemed to have a home that held together for a little while in time |
| Tx:20.77 | When you have looked on what | seemed terrifying and seen it change to sights of loveliness and |
| Tx:21.13 | will not be because it is obscure, but rather that this little cost | seemed in your judgment to be too much to pay for peace. |
| Tx:22.43 | before their coming, as every obstacle was finally surmounted which | seemed to rise and block their way before. This veil you lift |
| Tx:23.3 | truth releases everything from the illusion of harmfulness. And what | seemed harmful now stands shining in their innocence, released from |

| Tx:26.16 | before they disappear, to be forever undone and unremembered. What | seemed once to be a special problem, a mistake without a remedy, or |
| Tx:26.37 | to you? And do you want that fearful instant kept, when Heaven | seemed to disappear and God was feared and made a symbol of your hate? |

| Tx:28.36 | which has no end. For Love has set Its table in the space that | seemed to keep your Guests apart from you. |
| Tx:29.70 | And all the while he is remembering what he forgot when judgment | seemed to be the way to save him from its penalty. |
| W1:76.1 | We have observed before how many senseless things have | seemed to you to be salvation. Each has imprisoned you with laws as |
| W1:158.9 | not what form they took nor how enormous they appeared to be nor who | seemed to be hurt by them. They are no more, and all effects they |
| W1:158.9 | seemed to be hurt by them. They are no more, and all effects they | seemed to have are gone with them, undone and never to be done. |

| W1:183.3 | Every dream the world holds dear has suddenly gone by, and where it | seemed to stand you find a star; a miracle of grace. The sick arise, |
| W1:184.15 | we give to You, that we may be absolved of all effects our errors | seemed to have. And we accept the truth You give in place of every |

| W1:196.10 | could be directed outward and returned from outside to within. It | seemed to be an enemy outside you had to fear. And thus a god outside |
| W1:198.1 | and unreal. Then does illusion cease to have effects, and all it | seemed to have will be undone. Then are you free, for freedom is your |

| Tx:16.24 | change them. Illusions are but beliefs in what is not there. And the | seeming conflict between truth and illusion can only be resolved by |
| Tx:17.11 | searching of the mind that made this world and uncover to you the | seeming reasons for your making it. In the light of the real reason |
| Tx:18.60 | respective positions in space, and of your differences in size and | seeming quality. Time is not relevant; it can occur with something |

| Tx:19.6 | if the mind is limited to the body and divided into little parts of | seeming wholeness but without connection. This will not harm the |
| Tx:19.41 | you? Would you let a little bank of sand, a wall of dust, a tiny | seeming barrier, stand between your brothers and salvation? And yet, |
| Tx:19.47 | be more unstable than a tightly-organized delusional system? Its | seeming stability is its pervasive weakness, which extends to |
| Tx:19.70 | you think you are can never be apart from it. The body is the great | seeming betrayer of faith. In it lies disillusionment and the seeds |

| Tx:19.88 | or falsity of the idea which they reflect. Confronted with such | seeming uncertainty of meaning, judge it not. Remember the holy |
| Tx:19.96 | impulse to forget again, no stab of fear, nor the cold sweat of | seeming death can stand against your will. For what attracts you from |

| Tx:20.36 | to bar your way. Nothing you need will be denied you. Not one | seeming difficulty but will melt away before you reach it. You need |
| Tx:20.51 | body, as it will surely do, and they retreat in fear, feeling the | seeming firm foundation of their temple begin to shake and loosen. |
| Tx:20.53 | and leave no trace behind their going. The unholy instant of their | seeming power is frail as is a snowflake, but without its loveliness. |
| Tx:20.53 | beneficence? Is the malevolence of the unholy relationship, so | seeming powerful and so bitterly misunderstood and so invested in a |
| Tx:20.56 | The holy instant is of greater value now to you than its unholy | seeming counterpart, and you have learned you really want but one. |
| Tx:20.58 | direct, this course has nothing in it that is not consistent. The | seeming inconsistencies or parts you find more difficult than others |
| Tx:20.74 | values. Yet they are all the same. Again there is no order but a | seeming hierarchy of values. |
| Tx:21.25 | the cause of the effect and make effect appear to be a cause. This | seeming independence of effect enables it to be regarded as standing |
| Tx:21.28 | effects are gone because its source has been uncovered. It is its | seeming independence of its source that kept you prisoner. This is |
| Tx:21.29 | as their goal. For they are bargains with reality, toward which the | seeming union is adjusted. Forget not this—to bargain is to set a |
| Tx:22.12 | in separate ones. Yet must He be reborn into His ancient home, so | seeming new and yet as old as He, a tiny newcomer, dependent on the |
| Tx:22.18 | confused with joy. Joy is eternal. You can be sure indeed that any | seeming happiness that does not last is really fear. Joy does not |
| Tx:22.45 | truth when only weakness interferes? You are the strong ones in this | seeming conflict. And you need no defense. Everything that needs |
| Tx:23.4 | you! Do not give up this world of freedom for a little sigh of | seeming sin nor for a tiny stirring of guilt's attraction. Would you, |
| Tx:23.27 | law of chaos, which, if the others are accepted, must be true. This | seeming law is the belief you have what you have taken. By this, |
| Tx:23.33 | not be so? Chaos is lawlessness and has no laws. To be believed, its | seeming laws must be perceived as real. Their goal of madness must be |
| Tx:23.38 | completely, offering a certain witness that these laws are true. The | seeming gentler forms of the attack are no less certain in their |
| Tx:24.10 | perspective can the special have that does not change with every | seeming blow, each slight, or fancied judgment on itself? |
| Tx:26.1 | desperate attempts to strike a bargain, and all conflicts achieve a | seeming balance. It is the symbol of the central theme that somebody |
| Tx:26.1 | and you will see nothing attached to anything beyond itself. All | seeming entities can come a little nearer or go a little farther off |
| Tx:26.2 | and total lack of joining. Around each entity is built a wall so | seeming solid that it looks as if what is inside can never reach |
| Tx:26.42 | past and present, which is not a gap at all. Such is each life—a | seeming interval from birth to death and on to life again, a |
| Tx:27.73 | his Father, and made war upon himself. So fearful is the dream, so | seeming real, he could not waken to reality without the sweat of |
| Tx:29.8 | by learning that the body is not real. And there are overtones of | seeming fear around the happy message, “God is love.” |
| Tx:29.41 | it has no use. Its purpose ended; it is gone. And where it once held | seeming sway is now restored the function God established for His Son |
| Tx:31.10 | How wrong are you who fail to hear the call that echoes past each | seeming call to death, that sings behind each murderous attack and |
| Tx:31.15 | at all. The leader and the follower emerge as separate roles, each | seeming to possess advantages you would not want to lose. So in their |
| W1:12.5 | cross your mind are suitable subjects for today's exercises. Their | seeming quality does not matter. |
| W1:50.3 | you today. Through the Love of God in you, you can resolve all | seeming difficulties without effort and in sure confidence. Tell |
| W1:70.2 | The | seeming “cost” of accepting today's idea is this: it means that |
| W1:91.2 | You cannot use it because its presence is unknown to you. And the | seeming reality of the darkness makes the idea of light meaningless. |
| W1:107.5 | on in every need and trusted with a perfect trust in all the | seeming difficulties and the doubts that the appearances the world |
| W1:108.1 | depends upon today's idea. The light is in it, for it reconciles all | seeming opposites. And what is light except the resolution, born of |
| W1:R3.5 | about them while letting your mind relate them to your needs, your | seeming problems, and all your concerns. |
| W1:135.27 | is Eastertime in your salvation. And you rise again from what was | seeming death and hopelessness. Now is the light of hope reborn in |
| W1:140.6 | It is not a thought which judges an illusion by its size, its | seeming gravity, or anything that is related to the form it takes. It |
| W1:151.1 | judgment. It is merely an opinion based on ignorance and doubt. Its | seeming certainty is but a cloak for the uncertainty it would |
| W1:153.1 | provides no safety. It is rooted in attack and all its “gifts” of | seeming safety are illusory deceptions. It attacks and then attacks |
| W1:164.3 | you give to spend with Him beyond the world. How easily are all your | seeming sins forgot and all your sorrows unremembered. On this day is |
| W1:169.2 | Grace is acceptance of the Love of God within a world of | seeming hate and fear. By grace alone the hate and fear are gone, for |
| W1:170.10 | to peace. The final one, the hardest to believe is nothing and a | seeming obstacle with the appearance of a solid block, impenetrable, |
| W1:181.1 | of the Self that lies beyond your own mistakes and past his | seeming sins as well as yours. |
| W1:193.14 | We will attempt today to overcome a thousand | seeming obstacles to peace in just one day. Let mercy come to you |
| W1:195.5 | —the sick, the weak, the needy and afraid, and those who mourn a | seeming loss or feel apparent pain, who suffer cold or hunger, or who |
| W1:198.7 | This world has many | seeming separate haunts where mercy has no meaning and attack appears |
| W1:R6.2 | if understood, practiced, accepted, and applied to all the | seeming happenings throughout the day. One is enough. But for that |
| M:3.2 | potential for becoming a teaching-learning situation. Perhaps the | seeming strangers in the elevator will smile to one another; perhaps |
| M:17.4 | that gives rise to negative emotions, regardless of their | seeming justification by what appears as facts. Regardless, too, of |
| M:29.4 | myself I can do nothing” is to gain all power. And yet it is but a | seeming paradox. As God created you, you have all power. The image |

| Tx:30.88 | they are not in line with what you really are. This is a state so | seemingly unsafe that fear must rise. Do not continue thus, my |

| M:25.3 | The | seemingly new abilities that may be gathered on the way can be very |

| Tx:2.13 | can sleep, but a sleeping eye can still see. What is seen in dreams | seems to be very real. The Bible mentions that “a deep sleep fell |
| Tx:2.98 | cannot control fear because he himself created it. His belief in it | seems to render it out of his control by definition. Yet any attempt |
| Tx:2.100 | a device by which all compromise in this respect can be given up. It | seems to be abolished by degrees because time itself involves a |
| Tx:6.33 | thinking and thus guarantee their ultimate meeting. This convergence | seems to be far in the future only because your mind is not in |
| Tx:6.73 | appears to be the opposite of “being.” Therefore, the first lesson | seems to contain a contradiction since it is being learned by a |
| Tx:6.87 | While the first step | seems to increase conflict and the second step still entails it to |
| Tx:7.19 | The non-maximal only appears to have a range. This is because it | seems to be meaningful to measure it from the maximum and identify |
| Tx:7.29 | you are accepting conflict as your choice. Is it really a choice? It | seems to be, but seeming and reality are hardly the same. You who are |
| Tx:7.48 | This does place you in a position of needing to learn a lesson which | seems contradictory—you must learn to change your mind about your |
| Tx:7.62 | When you believe what God does not know, your thought | seems to contradict His, and this makes it appear as if you are |
| Tx:8.2 | when the ego asks for your allegiance. The distraction of the ego | seems to interfere with your learning, but the ego has no power to |
| Tx:8.59 | was made flesh.” Strictly speaking this is impossible, since it | seems to involve the translation of one order of reality into |
| Tx:8.71 | The body exists in a world which | seems to contain two voices which are fighting for its possession. In |
| Tx:8.90 | will is not the ego's, and that is why the ego is against you. What | seems to be the fear of God is really only the fear of your own |
| Tx:9.16 | place the ego in a very sound position as the guide for yours. It | seems absurd to have to emphasize repeatedly that the ego's |
| Tx:9.16 | as a teacher of salvation. Yet this question, ridiculous as it | seems, is really the crucial issue in the whole separation fantasy. |
| Tx:9.32 | It | seems to you that the Holy Spirit does not produce joy consistently |
| Tx:9.66 | When you hear the Holy Spirit, you merely feel better because loving | seems possible to you, but you do not remember yet that it once was |
| Tx:10.49 | Your recognition that whatever | seems to separate you from God is only fear, regardless of the form |
| Tx:11.91 | in the past, but there is no past. Always has no direction. Time | seems to go in one direction, but when you reach its end, it will |
| Tx:12.13 | love with weakness and hatred with strength, and your own real power | seems to you as your real weakness. For you could not control your |
| Tx:12.13 | world you think you control would vanish. The Holy Spirit, then, | seems to be attacking your fortress, for you would shut out God, and |
| Tx:13.3 | must be taken by God because the last step in your redemption, which | seems to be in the future, was accomplished by God in your creation. |
| Tx:13.17 | you, you will not see the light. And by projecting it, the world | seems dark and shrouded in your guilt. You throw a dark veil over it |
| Tx:13.47 | be seen but in illusions, for there alone their seeming clearness | seems to be clearly seen. Let us now turn away from them and follow |
| Tx:13.66 | here, as creating is being in Heaven. Whenever the pain of guilt | seems to attract you, remember that, if you yield to it, you are |
| Tx:13.92 | being carried along a quiet path in summer. Only your own volition | seems to make deciding hard. The Holy Spirit will not delay at all in |
| Tx:14.27 | But if one is kept in darkness from the other, their separation | seems to keep them both alive and equal in their reality. Their |
| Tx:14.42 | are seen in light. In darkness they are obscure, and their meaning | seems to lie only in shifting interpretations rather than in |
| Tx:14.49 | of Heaven, while others are motivated by the ego, which but | seems to think. The result is a weaving, changing pattern which never |
| Tx:15.2 | It does not waste Him as it does you.] And all the waste that time | seems to bring with it is due but to your identification with the |
| Tx:15.66 | no hold at all, except that no one recognizes it. For the ego always | seems to attract through love and has no attraction at all to anyone |
| Tx:15.71 | In these insane relationships, the attraction of what you do not want | seems to be much stronger than the attraction of what you do. For |
| Tx:15.72 | it does not object where the mind goes or what it thinks, for this | seems unimportant. As long as the body is there to receive its |
| Tx:15.73 | other. For they believe that this decreases it in them. The other | seems always to be attacking and wounding them, perhaps in little |
| Tx:15.77 | even this without fear. It is through the holy instant that what | seems impossible is accomplished, making it evident that it is not |
| Tx:15.84 | one. He will do this because it is His function. Leave, then, what | seems to you to be impossible to Him Who knows it must be possible |
| Tx:15.95 | in perception that is necessary, for you made but one mistake. It | seems like many, but it is all the same. For though the ego takes |
| Tx:15.97 | While it is obvious that the ego does demand payment, it never | seems to be demanding it of you. For you are unwilling to recognize |
| Tx:15.98 | demands! For total love would demand total sacrifice. And so the ego | seems to demand less of you than God, and of the two is judged as the |
| Tx:15.99 | will appease this savage guest, for it is an invader who but | seems to offer kindness, but always to make the sacrifice complete. |
| Tx:15.104 | where your invitation bids them be. What you excluded from yourself | seems fearful, for you endowed it with fear and tried to cast it out |
| Tx:16.34 | no one would hesitate. But conflict enters the instant the choice | seems to be one between illusions, for this choice does not matter. |
| Tx:16.36 | exactly what it is you think you can do to solve the dilemma, which | seems very real to you, but which does not exist. You have come very |
| Tx:16.39 | are the veil behind which truth is hidden. To lift the veil which | seems so dark and heavy, it is only needful to value truth beyond all |
| Tx:16.40 | Would you not go through fear to love? For such the journey | seems to be. Love calls, but hate would have you stay. Hear not the |
| Tx:16.50 | self the ego seeks is always one that is more special. And whoever | seems to possess a special self is “loved” for what can be taken from |
| Tx:16.64 | is a period of confusion in which a sense of actual disorientation | seems to occur. But fear it not, for it means nothing more than that |
| Tx:16.68 | over will be the understanding of where Heaven is. From here it | seems to be outside and across the bridge. Yet as you cross to join |
| Tx:17.16 | by which you arrive at the remembrance may be, attracts you and | seems to you to go by the name of love. And finally why all such |
| Tx:17.18 | the more the fantasies can encompass, the greater the satisfaction | seems to be. |
| Tx:17.32 | terms, that the ego is insane. Yet the special relationship still | seems to you somehow to be “different.” Yet we have looked at it far |
| Tx:17.39 | you search it out amid its wrappings. As each senseless stone which | seems to shine in darkness from the frame is exposed to light, it |
| Tx:17.45 | condition, your goal was all that seemed to give it meaning. Now it | seems to make no sense. Many relationships have been broken off at |
| Tx:17.46 | and accepted as the only way out of the conflict, the relationship | seems to be severely strained. |
| Tx:17.48 | has taken under His guidance? Have faith in each other in what but | seems to be a trying time. The goal is set. And your relationship has |
| Tx:17.55 | purpose that has been accepted and the means as they stand now which | seems to make you suffer, but which makes Heaven glad. If Heaven were |
| Tx:17.59 | a clear cut positive goal, set at the outset, the situation just | seems to happen and makes no sense until it has already happened. |
| Tx:17.62 | This is inevitable. No one will fail in anything. This | seems to ask for faith beyond you and beyond what you can give. Yet |
| Tx:17.63 | Confronted with any aspect of the situation which | seems to be difficult, the ego will attempt to take this aspect |
| Tx:17.77 | the call of your Redeemer, the strain of not responding to His call | seems to be greater than before. This is not so. Before, the strain |
| Tx:18.2 | God has joined and what the Holy Spirit sees as one. But everything | seems to come between the fragmented relationships the ego sponsors |
| Tx:18.3 | replacement. Fear is both a fragmented and a fragmenting emotion. It | seems to take many forms, and each seems to require a different form |
| Tx:18.3 | and a fragmenting emotion. It seems to take many forms, and each | seems to require a different form of acting out for satisfaction. |
| Tx:18.14 | Does not a world that | seems quite real arise in dreams? Yet think what this world is. It is |
| Tx:18.16 | you order. No limit on substitution is laid upon you. For a time, it | seems as if the world were given you, to make it what you will. You |
| Tx:18.17 | in which you literally scream, “I want it thus!” And thus it | seems to be. And yet the dream cannot escape its origin. Anger and |
| Tx:18.18 | that it is real. Yet here is a world, clearly within your mind, that | seems to be outside. You do not respond to it as though you made it, |
| Tx:18.25 | goal of knowledge, for which you signified your willingness. Fear | seems to live in darkness, and when you are afraid, you have stepped |
| Tx:18.51 | of the body does separation seem to be possible. And it is mind that | seems to be fragmented and private and alone. Its guilt, which keeps |
| Tx:18.51 | the body to act them out. Yet it is never what the body does that | seems to satisfy. Unless the mind believes the body is actually |
| Tx:18.57 | The body is outside you, and but | seems to surround you, shutting you off from others and keeping you |
| Tx:18.60 | This can occur regardless of the physical distance which | seems to be between you and what you join, of your respective |
| Tx:18.75 | in which those in a world inhabited by bodies seem to be. Each body | seems to house a separate mind, a disconnected thought living alone |
| Tx:18.75 | joined to the Thought by which it was created. Each tiny fragment | seems to be self-contained, needing each other for some things but by |
| Tx:18.83 | it is over. You are still worn and tired and the desert's dust still | seems to cloud your eyes and keep you sightless. Yet He Whom you |
| Tx:18.84 | Therefore, it is the tiny part of yourself, the little thought that | seems split off and separate, which the Holy Spirit needs. The rest |
| Tx:18.88 | The circle of fear lies just below the level the body sees and | seems to be the whole foundation on which the world is based. Here |
| Tx:18.89 | that guilt is real. For the reality of guilt is the illusion which | seems to make it heavy and opaque, impenetrable, and a real |
| Tx:18.90 | floor which looks like rock, is like a bank of low dark clouds that | seems to be a solid wall before the sun. Its impenetrable appearance |
| Tx:19.8 | protecting the body by hiding this connection, for this concealment | seems to keep your identification safe from the “attack” of truth. |
| Tx:19.9 | wrought by your faithlessness. For faithlessness is an attack which | seems to be justified by its results. For by withholding faith, you |
| Tx:19.22 | seem heavy and impenetrable. The solidness this world's foundation | seems to have is found in this. For sin has changed creation from an |
| Tx:19.29 | Time is like a downward spiral which | seems to travel down from a long, unbroken line along another plane |
| Tx:19.29 | or interferes with its smooth continuousness. Along the spiral, it | seems as if the line must have been broken. Yet at the line, its |
| Tx:19.29 | by the drop into another plane at all. Yet from the plane, the line | seems discontinuous. And this is but an error in perception which can |
| Tx:19.32 | leads to a perception of the world in which the proof of separation | seems to be everywhere. And God and His creation seem to be split |
| Tx:19.34 | see it long. For in the new perception, the mind corrects it when it | seems to be seen, and it becomes invisible. And errors are quickly |
| Tx:19.41 | What do you think that it must dispossess to dwell with you? What | seems to be the cost you are so unwilling to pay? The little barrier |
| Tx:19.42 | contain behind your little barrier and keep separate from each other | seems mightier than the universe, for it would hold back the universe |
| Tx:19.44 | Guilt can raise no real barriers against it. And all that | seems to stand between you must fall away because of the appeal you |
| Tx:19.77 | peace must flow across. No one can die unless he chooses death. What | seems to be the fear of death is really its attraction. Guilt, too, |
| Tx:19.83 | principle in a course on miracles than by showing you the one which | seems to be the hardest can be accomplished first? The body can but |
| Tx:19.84 | obstacle of your seeming love for death that peace must flow across | seems to be very great. For in it lies hidden all the ego's secrets, |
| Tx:19.88 | When anything | seems to you to be a source of fear, when any situation strikes you |
| Tx:19.91 | to meet Him and to join with Him at last. For this dark veil, which | seems to make the face of Christ Himself like to a leper's and the |
| Tx:19.92 | you out of separation; the great amnesia in which the memory of God | seems quite forgotten; the cleavage of your Self from you—the fear |
| Tx:19.96 | It | seems to you the world will utterly abandon you if you but raise your |
| Tx:19.99 | without a purpose is still meaningless, and even when it is over, it | seems to make no sense. How can you know that it is over unless you |
| Tx:19.101 | This brother who stands beside you still | seems to be a stranger. You do not know him, and your interpretation |
| Tx:19.101 | of him is very fearful. And you attack him still, to keep what | seems to be yourself unharmed. Yet in his hands is your salvation. |
| Tx:20.20 | Yet it was you who made it merciless, and now if mercilessness | seems to look back at you, it can be corrected. |
| Tx:20.35 | much that must be done before the way to peace is open. Perhaps this | seems impossible to you. But ask yourself if it is possible that God |
| Tx:20.52 | relationship is no relationship. It is a state of isolation which | seems to be what it is not. No more than that. The instant that the |
| Tx:20.55 | in sin made flesh and then projected outward. This produces what | seems to be a wall of flesh around the mind, keeping it prisoner in a |
| Tx:20.55 | and grieve and die in honor of its master. And this unholy instant | seems to be life; an instant of despair, a tiny island of dry sand, |
| Tx:20.65 | eyes to shut him out. Such was your purpose, and while this purpose | seems to have any meaning, the means for its attainment will be |
| Tx:20.74 | but always, do you want the purpose which they serve? This world | seems to hold out many purposes, each different and with different |
| Tx:20.75 | which the outside world, projected from within, adjusts to sin and | seems to witness to its reality. It still is true that nothing is |
| Tx:21.15 | and I decided on the goal I would achieve. And everything that | seems to happen to me, I asked for and received as I had asked. |
| Tx:21.17 | power of decision is the determiner of every situation in which he | seems to find himself by chance or accident. No accident nor chance |
| Tx:21.21 | your altars and which you worship. And anything which threatens this | seems to attack your faith, for here is it invested. Think not that |
| Tx:21.22 | you have set up your idols to something else. This other will, which | seems to tell you what must happen, you gave reality. And what would |
| Tx:21.25 | desire. The Son is the effect, whose Cause he would deny. And so he | seems to be the cause, producing real effects. Nothing can have |
| Tx:21.28 | and you deny your whole reality. But grant that everything which | seems to stand between you, keeping you from each other and separate |
| Tx:21.41 | but witnesses to your desire that it be there to see. This merely | seems to be the source of fear. |
| Tx:21.60 | private thoughts? And how could thoughts that enter into what but | seems like yours alone have no effect at all on what is yours? If |
| Tx:21.72 | is turned to hate as easily. This is no army, but a madhouse. What | seems to be a planned attack is bedlam. |
| Tx:21.76 | the first three questions but not yet the last. For this one still | seems fearful and unlike the others. Yet reason would assure you they |
| Tx:21.76 | This final question, which is indeed the last you need decide, still | seems to hold a threat the rest have lost for you. And this imagined |
| Tx:22.1 | in the other yet believed by each to be within himself. And each one | seems to make a different error, and one the other cannot understand. |
| Tx:22.5 | in without a plan of any kind except to wander off, for only that | seems certain. |
| Tx:22.16 | are the same. Both bring the same amount of misery, though each one | seems to be the way to lose the misery the other brings. Every |
| Tx:22.37 | awareness. In an unholy relationship, each one is valued because he | seems to justify the other's sin. He sees within the other what |
| Tx:22.38 | decision, but he can delay. And there is no part of the journey that | seems more hopeless and futile than standing where the road branches |
| Tx:22.42 | And each will be the other's strong protector from everything that | seems to rise between you. So shall you walk the world with me, whose |
| Tx:22.44 | and give as you received. Standing before the veil, it still | seems difficult. But hold out your joined hands and touch this |
| Tx:22.49 | you there is a Force which no illusions can resist. This body only | seems to be immovable; this Force is irresistible in truth. What, |
| Tx:22.50 | this must happen. For it is your unwillingness to overlook what | seems to stand between you that makes it look impenetrable and |
| Tx:22.60 | this error came about, for here lies buried the heavy anchor that | seems to keep the fear of God in place, unmovable and solid as a |
| Tx:22.61 | And you must think that they are separate because of fear. For it | seems safer to attack another or yourself than to attack the great |
| Tx:22.62 | to attack to see it [separate from its Creator]. And thus it | seems as if love could attack and become fearful. |
| Tx:22.63 | you seem to be and therefore can attack. Of the alternatives, this | seems more natural and more in line with your experience. And |
| Tx:23.15 | conflict of illusions disappears when it is brought to truth! For it | seems real only as long as it is seen as war between conflicting |
| Tx:23.21 | Think how this | seems to interfere with the first principle of miracles. For this |
| Tx:23.23 | Think what this | seems to do to the relationship between the Father and the Son. Now |
| Tx:23.24 | mistaken. This leads directly to the third preposterous belief that | seems to make chaos eternal. For if God cannot be mistaken, then He |
| Tx:23.25 | is useless. Nor can salvation lie within the Son, whose every aspect | seems to be at war with Him and justified in its attack. And now is |
| Tx:23.26 | can succeed. Only destruction can be the outcome. And God Himself | seems to be siding with it to overcome His Son. Think not the ego |
| Tx:23.34 | function, yet in dreams, where only shadows play the major roles, it | seems most powerful. No law of chaos could compel belief but for the |
| Tx:23.37 | be. In any state apart from Heaven, life is illusion. At best, it | seems like life; at worst, like death. Yet both are judgments on what |
| Tx:23.39 | the faith in chaos must follow. It is because it follows that it | seems to be a logical conclusion—a valid step in ordered thought. |
| Tx:23.44 | This course is easy just because it makes no compromise. Yet it | seems difficult to those who still believe that compromise is |
| Tx:23.47 | on truth, and every one does violence to the idea of love because it | seems to be of equal truth. |
| Tx:23.55 | fought for on the battleground is of the body—something it | seems to offer or to own. No one who knows that he has everything |
| Tx:24.1 | be Himself. No more His Son. They are. And what illusion that idly | seems to drift between them has the power to defeat what is Their |
| Tx:24.3 | choose for love. Your choosing it has given it all the reality it | seems to have. |
| Tx:24.15 | listen to. And that vast song of honor and of love for what you are | seems silent and unheard before its “mightiness.” You strain your |
| Tx:24.20 | Yet it is not illusions which have reached this final obstacle that | seems to make God and His Heaven so remote that they cannot be |
| Tx:24.27 | You would protect what God created not. And yet this idol that | seems to give you power has taken it away. For you have given your |

| Tx:25.60 | the underlying tenet God must be insane. For in this world, it | seems that one must gain because another lost. If this were true, |
| Tx:25.69 | cloak? And what escape has He for them except a door to hell that | seems to look like Heaven's gate? |
| Tx:26.10 | aspects which need solving do not change, whatever form the problem | seems to take. A problem can appear in many forms, and it will do so |
| Tx:26.11 | They are the same to Him because each one, regardless of the form it | seems to take, is a demand that someone suffer loss and make a |
| Tx:26.17 | Heaven be given you instead of hell, and every bolt and barrier that | seems to hold the door securely barred and locked will merely fall |
| Tx:26.23 | over-complicated world. For no one understands what is the same and | seems to choose where no choice really is. The real world is the area |
| Tx:26.40 | back and forth between the past and present. Sometimes the past | seems real, as if it were the present. Voices from the past are heard |
| Tx:26.48 | its senselessness is quite apparent. Kept apart from truth, it | seems to have a meaning and be real. |
| Tx:26.49 | be apart from them. Ideas are of the mind. What is projected out and | seems to be external to the mind is not outside at all but an effect |
| Tx:26.51 | God gave as answer to them all. God's Will is One. And any wish that | seems to go against His Will has no foundation in the truth. |
| Tx:26.69 | you think lies in between the giving and receiving of the gift | seems to be one in which you sacrifice and suffer loss. You see |
| Tx:26.73 | told that everything brings good that comes from God. And yet it | seems as if this is not so. Good in disaster's form is difficult to |
| Tx:27.4 | merciless to everyone, and in contagion do they seek to kill. Death | seems an easy price if they can say, “Behold me, brother; at your |
| Tx:27.24 | Him only half your mind. And thus He represents the other half and | seems to have a different purpose from the one you cherish and you |
| Tx:27.55 | the cost of pain.” These witnesses are joined by many more. Each one | seems different because it has a different name, and so it seems to |
| Tx:27.55 | Each one seems different because it has a different name, and so it | seems to answer to a different sound. Except for this, the witnesses |
| Tx:27.64 | could fail to see it does not follow, and it makes no sense. Yet it | seems sensible because it looks as if the world were hurting you. And |
| Tx:27.64 | because it looks as if the world were hurting you. And so it | seems as if there is no need to go beyond the obvious in terms of |
| Tx:27.65 | looked at thus, the world provides the means by which this purpose | seems to be fulfilled. |
| Tx:27.79 | nor will its purpose. Though the dream itself takes many forms and | seems to show a great variety of places and events wherein its “hero” |
| Tx:27.86 | the role of enemy and of attacker, still is this the truth. Whatever | seems to be the cause of any pain and suffering you feel, this is |
| Tx:28.5 | is for. Like to the body, it is purposeless within itself. And if it | seems to serve to cherish ancient hate and offers you the pictures of |
| Tx:28.24 | be feared. Nor will the call to wakening be heard, because it | seems to be the call to fear. |
| Tx:28.31 | ill because it is a wish to keep apart and not to join. And thus it | seems to give a cause to sickness which is not its cause. The purpose |
| Tx:28.42 | are confused, for in the gap no stable self exists. What is the same | seems different because what is the same appears to be unlike. His |
| Tx:28.49 | a “something” you are not. You will make war upon your Self, which | seems to be your enemy, and will attack your brother as a part of |
| Tx:28.56 | It hears your voice. And it is frail and little by your wish. It | seems to punish you and thus deserve your hatred for the limitations |
| Tx:28.62 | sets you spinning round, to grasp uncertainly at any straw that | seems to hold some promise of relief. Yet who can build his home upon |
| Tx:28.63 | the choice cannot be made in terms of form. The choice of sickness | seems to be a form, yet it is one, as is its opposite. And you are |
| Tx:28.64 | mean you are apart, and if you are, you cannot but be sick. This | seems to prove that you must be apart. Yet all it means is that you |
| Tx:28.64 | faithlessness is sickness. It is like the house set upon straw. It | seems to be quite solid and substantial in itself. Yet its stability |
| Tx:29.4 | you is not one of space between two separate bodies. This but | seems to be dividing off your separate minds. It is the symbol of a |
| Tx:29.7 | present, sometimes gone. Thus is love seen as treacherous because it | seems to come and go uncertainly and offer no stability to you. You |
| Tx:29.15 | nothing else it rests upon. Its basis does not change, although it | seems to be in constant change. Yet what is that except the state |
| Tx:29.18 | attacked because its nothingness has not been recognized. And so it | seems to be a thing with power in itself. As something, it can be |
| Tx:29.26 | For every dream is but a dream of fear, no matter what the form it | seems to take. The fear is seen within, without, or both. Or it can |
| Tx:29.39 | He is the only thing in all the universe that must be one. What | seems eternal all will have an end. The stars will disappear, and |
| Tx:29.54 | oppose the Christ and fall before His face like a dark veil which | seems to shut you off from Him, alone in darkness. Yet the light is |
| Tx:29.54 | A cloud does not put out the sun. No more a veil can banish what it | seems to separate nor darken by one whit the light itself. |
| Tx:29.56 | What is an idol? Nothing! It must be believed before it | seems to come to life and given power that it may be feared. Its life |
| Tx:30.29 | day with the determination not to make decisions by yourself. This | seems to be a real decision in itself. And yet, you cannot make |
| Tx:30.51 | is not there is filled with toys in countless forms. And each one | seems to break the rules you set for it. It never was the thing you |
| Tx:30.73 | to keep the sense of sin alive. And recognizing God is just, it | seems impossible His pardon could be real. Thus is the fear of God |
| Tx:30.75 | can this be except a false forgiveness of yourself and everyone who | seems apart from you? |
| Tx:31.4 | of learning—an enormity so great the Holy Spirit's Voice | seems small and still before its magnitude. The world began with one |
| Tx:31.14 | Let us review again what | seems to stand between you and the truth of what you are. For there |
| Tx:31.33 | should this be? Because it is a place where choice among illusions | seems to be the only choice. And you are in control of outcomes of |
| Tx:31.36 | is but begun with this. Seek not another signpost in the world which | seems to point to still another road. No longer look for hope where |
| Tx:31.44 | the aspect acted on. It is this face that smiles and charms and even | seems to love. It searches for companions, and it looks at times with |
| Tx:31.51 | no shattering of what was learned, but just a re-translation of what | seems to be the evidence on its behalf. Let us consider then what |
| Tx:31.52 | That you are what your brother made of you | seems most unlikely. Even if he did, who gave the face of innocence |
| Tx:31.70 | see him more than just a body, for the good is never what the body | seems to be. The actions of the body are perceived as coming from the |
| Tx:31.79 | Whatever form temptation | seems to take, it always but reflects a wish to be a self which you |
| W1:5.1 | of your upset, using the description of the feeling in whatever term | seems accurate to you. The upset may seem to be fear, worry, |
| W1:6.3 | Today's idea is useful for application to anything that | seems to upset you and can profitably be used throughout the day for |
| W1:9.2 | It is difficult for the untrained mind to believe that what | seems to be pictured before it is not there. This idea can be quite |
| W1:11.1 | correction process—the reversal of the thinking of the world. It | seems as if the world determines what you perceive. Today's idea |
| W1:19.2 | are joined. This is rarely a wholly welcome idea at first, since it | seems to carry with it an enormous sense of responsibility and may |

| W1:37.9 | his name as you do so. It is essential to use the idea if anyone | seems to cause an adverse reaction in you. Offer him the blessing of |
| W1:44.4 | natural and easy one in the world for the trained mind, just as it | seems to be the most unnatural and difficult for the untrained mind. |
| W1:44.11 | Throughout the day, repeat the idea often with eyes open or closed as | seems better to you at the time. Do not forget. Above all, be |
| W1:68.2 | realize just what holding grievances does to your awareness. It | seems to split you off from your Source and make you unlike Him. It |
| W1:68.3 | Self, which remains aware of its likeness to its Creator, your Self | seems to sleep, while the part of your mind that weaves illusions in |
| W1:70.1 | of the basic temptation not to believe the idea for today. Salvation | seems to come from anywhere except from you. So, too, does the source |
| W1:71.8 | certainty today. And let us rejoice that there is an answer to what | seems to be a conflict with no resolution possible. All things are |
| W1:72.2 | is the physical embodiment of this wish. For it is this wish which | seems to surround the mind with a body, keeping it separate and alone |
| W1:74.9 | If there is one conflict area which | seems particularly difficult to resolve, single it out for special |
| W1:75.13 | Should you be tempted, say to anyone who | seems to pull you back to darkness: |
| W1:79.2 | Everyone in this world | seems to have his own special problems. Yet they are all the same and |
| W1:79.3 | about what the problem is. A long series of different problems | seems to confront you, and as one is settled the next one and the |
| W1:79.3 | you, and as one is settled the next one and the next arise. There | seems to be no end to them. There is no time in which you feel |
| W1:79.4 | the temptation to keep the problem of separation unsolved. The world | seems to present you with a vast number of problems, each requiring a |
| W1:79.10 | not deceived by the form of problems today. Whenever any difficulty | seems to rise, tell yourself quickly: |
| W1:93.5 | of God. Therefore, this self does not exist at all. And anything it | seems to do and think means nothing. It is neither bad nor good. It |
| W1:93.15 | If a situation arises that | seems to be disturbing, quickly dispel the illusion of fear by |
| W1:94.9 | you are as God created you. And be sure to respond to anyone who | seems to irritate you with these words: |
| W1:105.12 | Determine not to interfere today with what He wills. And if a brother | seems to tempt you to deny God's gift to him, see it as but another |
| W1:109.8 | restored to walk with lightened steps along the road that suddenly | seems easy as they go. |
| W1:121.1 | your search for peace. Here is the key to meaning in a world which | seems to make no sense. Here is the way to safety in apparent dangers |
| W1:121.10 | longer practice periods by thinking of someone you do not like, who | seems to irritate you or to cause regret in you if you should meet |
| W1:124.8 | with your Creator, as He is with you. Sometime today, whenever it | seems best, devote a half an hour to the thought that you are one |
| W1:126.2 | Let us consider what you do believe in place of this idea. It | seems to you that other people are apart from you and able to behave |
| W1:127.7 | in which you now believe. Open your mind and rest. The world that | seems to hold you prisoner can be escaped by anyone who does not hold |
| W1:133.1 | there is benefit, particularly after you have gone through what | seems theoretical and far from what the student has already learned, |
| W1:133.12 | realize there are but two. And the alternative you think you chose | seems fearful and too dangerous to be the nothingness it actually is. |
| W1:135.8 | are the sources for the many mad attacks you make upon it. For it | seems to fail your hopes, your needs, your values, and your dreams. |
| W1:136.1 | No one can heal unless he understands what purpose sickness | seems to serve. For then he understands as well its purpose has no |
| W1:136.4 | your plan requires that you must forget you made it, so it | seems to be external to your own intent—a happening beyond your |
| W1:137.2 | Sickness is isolation. For it | seems to keep one self apart from all the rest to suffer what the |
| W1:137.6 | powerful than Christ to those who dream the world is real. The body | seems to be more solid and more stable than the mind. And love |
| W1:138.4 | you when there is really only one to make. And even this but | seems to be a choice. Do not confuse yourself with all the doubts |
| W1:151.1 | needs irrational defense because it is irrational. And its defense | seems strong, convincing, and without a doubt because of all the |
| W1:151.10 | Let Him be judge as well of everything that | seems to happen to you in this world. His lessons will enable you to |
| W1:151.11 | and all occurrences, each circumstance, and every happening which | seems to touch on you in any way from His one frame of reference, |
| W1:153.3 | of steel with iron overlaid, returning but to start again. There | seems to be no break nor ending in the ever-tightening grip of |

| W1:166.6 | He | seems a sorry figure—weary, worn, in threadbare clothing, and with |
| W1:167.6 | its own eternal, mindful state. It cannot make the physical. What | seems to die is but the sign of mind asleep. |
| W1:167.7 | sleeping. It is not its opposite in anything created nor in what it | seems to make when it believes it sleeps. |
| W1:167.9 | What | seems to be the opposite of life is merely sleeping. When the mind |
| W1:167.9 | cannot enter, or a false condition not within its Source, it merely | seems to go to sleep a while. It dreams of time—an interval in |

| W1:182.6 | needs your protection. He is far from home. He is so little that He | seems so easily shut out, His tiny Voice so readily obscured, His |
| W1:186.8 | or weep and greet the day with welcome or with tears. Our very being | seems to change as we experience a thousand shifts in mood, and our |
| W1:186.12 | Do as His Voice directs. And if it asks a thing of you that | seems impossible, remember Who it is that asks and who would make |
| W1:187.1 | giving is proof of having. We have made this point before. What | seems to make it hard to credit is not this. No one can doubt that |
| W1:187.2 | them in your own mind. Perhaps the form in which the thought | seems to appear is changed in giving. Yet it must return to him who |
| W1:187.5 | for each will have the thought in form most helpful to him. What he | seems to lose is always something he will value less than what will |
| W1:192.9 | as you choose to be condemned or free. Thus does each one who | seems to tempt you to be angry represent your savior from the |
| W1:194.4 | be one to you. Yet in this world the temporal progression still | seems real. And so you are not asked to understand the lack of |
| W1:195.1 | better off than others. And they try to be content because another | seems to suffer more than they. How pitiful and deprecating are such |
| W1:195.4 | is more slave than you, nor could you sanely be enraged if he | seems freer. Love makes no comparisons. And gratitude can only be |
| W1:196.10 | There is an instant in which terror | seems to grip your mind so wholly that escape appears quite hopeless. |
| W1:198.2 | is a part of knowledge. To condemn is thus impossible in truth. What | seems to be its influence and its effects have not occurred at all. |
| W1:200.4 | But it is given you to find the means whereby the world no longer | seems to be a prison house for you or anyone. |
| W2:236.1 | I must rule. At times, it does not seem I am its king at all. It | seems to triumph over me and tell me what to think and what to do and |
| W2:WIB.3 | The body is a dream. Like other dreams, it sometimes | seems to picture happiness but can quite suddenly revert to fear, |
| W2:328.1 | What | seems to be the second place is first, for all things we perceive are |
| W2:328.1 | we perceive are upside-down until we listen to the Voice of God. It | seems that we will gain autonomy but by our striving to be separate |
| W2:356.1 | Your Son might make to You. It does not matter where he is, what | seems to be his problem, nor what he believes he has become. He is |
| W2:FL.2 | it is this ending God Himself appointed. In the dream of time, it | seems to be far off. And yet in truth, it is already here, already |

| M:I.1 | in the thinking of the world. The reversal is characteristic. It | seems as if the teacher and the learner are separated, the teacher |
| M:2.3 | The world of time is the world of illusion. What happened long ago | seems to be happening now. Choices made long since appear to be open, |
| M:2.4 | it is an instant that is relived again and again and still again, it | seems to be now. And thus it is that pupil and teacher seem to come |
| M:2.4 | choice out of an ancient past. God's Will in everything but | seems to take time in the working-out. What could delay the Power of |
| M:3.3 | one permits the illusion of the other. In time, the teacher of God | seems to begin to change his mind about the world with the single |
| M:3.3 | the illusion of time already, but the illusion of levels of teaching | seems to be something different. Perhaps the best way to demonstrate |
| M:4.5 | This need not be painful, but it usually is so experienced. It | seems as if things are being taken away, and it is rarely understood |
| M:7.4 | in the form of lack of trust. As such, it is an attack. Usually it | seems to be just the opposite. It does appear unreasonable at first |
| M:11.1 | This is a question everyone must ask. Certainly peace | seems to be impossible. Yet the Word of God promises other things |
| M:11.3 | —one without meaning and devoid of sense, yet out of which no way | seems possible—God has sent His Judgment to answer yours. Gently |
| M:13.7 | And in this situation the impossible can seem to happen. It | seems to happen at the “sacrifice” of truth. |
| M:14.3 | Certainly this | seems to be a long, long while away. “When not one thought of sin |
| M:17.6 | “opponent” really is. Projecting your “forgetting” onto Him, it | seems to you He has forgotten too. |
| M:17.9 | Madness but | seems terrible. In truth it has no power to make anything. Like the |
| M:19.3 | Forgiveness has no place in such a scheme, for not one “sin” but | seems forever true. |
| M:22.2 | the necessary realization of inclusiveness may reach him. If the way | seems long, let him be content. He has decided on the direction he |
| M:27.7 | believe in cruelty nor let attack conceal the truth from you. What | seems to die has but been misperceived and carried to illusion. Now |

| Tx:17.7 | those you forgive will look to you? In no fantasy have you ever | seen anything so lovely. Nothing you see here, sleeping or waking, |
| Tx:17.16 | become the attempt at union through the body, for only bodies can be | seen as means for vengeance. That bodies are central to all unholy |
| Tx:17.21 | to seek for and establish conditions in which this beauty can be | seen. |
| Tx:17.37 | made you think it was a picture. Without the frame, the picture is | seen as what it represents. For as the whole thought system of the |
| Tx:17.38 | be partially accepted. Each is a picture of all that you can have, | seen very differently. You cannot compare their value by comparing a |
| Tx:17.39 | for what they represent. One is framed to be out of focus and not | seen. The other is framed for perfect clarity. The picture of |
| Tx:17.40 | at last occur. And each is given its rightful place, when both are | seen in relation to each other. The dark picture brought to light is |
| Tx:17.44 | world, is learned. It is the old unholy relationship transformed and | seen anew. The holy relationship is a phenomenal teaching |
| Tx:17.46 | the relationship to fit the goal. Until this happy solution is | seen and accepted as the only way out of the conflict, the |
| Tx:17.67 | and not by you. You did not set it because holiness cannot be | seen except through faith, and your relationship was not holy because |
| Tx:17.74 | of the meaning of every relationship and every situation, | seen as a whole. Faith has accepted every aspect of the situation, |
| Tx:18.3 | the fragmented perception from which the behavior stems. No one is | seen complete. The body is emphasized, with special emphasis on |
| Tx:18.5 | fearful enough, as you begin to look at them. But nothing you have | seen begins to show you the enormity of the original error, which |
| Tx:18.86 | really is. The barren sands, the darkness and the lifelessness are | seen only through the body's eyes. Its vision is distorted, and the |
| Tx:18.88 | this for its protection, which must always depend on keeping it not | seen. The body's eyes will never look on it. Yet they will see what |
| Tx:18.93 | world where guilt meets with forgiveness. Here the world outside is | seen anew, without the shadow of guilt upon it. Here are you |
| Tx:19.7 | where sickness cannot be. They are together, and when they are | seen together, all attempts to keep both truth and illusion in the |
| Tx:19.7 | as dedication to illusion and given up when brought to truth and | seen as totally irreconcilable with truth in any respect or in any |
| Tx:19.12 | of forgiveness. But through the eyes of faith, the Son of God is | seen already forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid upon himself. |
| Tx:19.18 | innocence and making himself what God created not. Thus is creation | seen as not eternal, and the Will of God open to opposition and |
| Tx:19.20 | error but truth, and it is innocence that would deceive. Purity is | seen as arrogance, and the acceptance of the self as sinful is |
| Tx:19.29 | been broken. Yet at the line, its wholeness is apparent. Everything | seen from the spiral is misperceived, but as you approach the line, |
| Tx:19.34 | For in the new perception, the mind corrects it when it seems to be | seen, and it becomes invisible. And errors are quickly recognized and |
| Tx:19.35 | was healed in the holy instant Heaven gave you. Forget what you have | seen and raise your eyes in faith to what you now can see. The |
| Tx:19.51 | Relationships in this world are the result of how the world is | seen. And this depends on which emotion was called on to send its |
| Tx:19.59 | For here is the attraction of guilt made manifest in the body and | seen in it. |
| Tx:19.84 | to it and bid it come to save them from communication. For death is | seen as safety, the great dark savior from the light of truth, the |
| Tx:19.108 | the Presence beyond the veil, not to be lost, but found; not to be | seen, but known. And knowing, nothing in the plan God has established |
| Tx:19.109 | as you look on him, so will the gift itself appear to be. As he is | seen as either the giver of guilt or of salvation, so will his |
| Tx:19.109 | either the giver of guilt or of salvation, so will his offering be | seen and so received. The crucified give pain because they are in |
| Tx:20.17 | relationships, in which there are no interferences, are always | seen as dangerous. The ego is the self-appointed mediator of all |
| Tx:20.42 | already given; the face of Christ you yet will look upon already | seen. |
| Tx:20.48 | The rest it merely throws away, for all that it could offer is | seen as valueless. Homeless, the ego seeks as many bodies as it can |
| Tx:20.49 | as His home the only place in all the universe where it can not be | seen? |
| Tx:20.72 | He looks upon is always sure. For it will meet His purpose, | seen in unadjusted form and suited perfectly to meet it. |
| Tx:20.77 | When you have looked on what seemed terrifying and | seen it change to sights of loveliness and peace; when you have |
| Tx:21.3 | really looks like is unknown to them. They must infer what could be | seen from evidence forever indirect and reconstruct their inferences |
| Tx:21.4 | How foolish it is to attempt to judge what could be | seen instead. It is not necessary to imagine what the world must look |
| Tx:21.4 | not necessary to imagine what the world must look like. It must be | seen before you recognize it for what it is. You can be shown which |
| Tx:21.39 | that what gives light be one with what depends on darkness to be | seen. Neither demands the sacrifice of the other. Yet on the absence |
| Tx:21.40 | made to be a sacrifice to sin, and in the darkness so it still is | seen. Yet in the light of vision, it is looked upon quite |
| Tx:21.45 | This part has | seen your brother and recognized him perfectly since time began. And |
| Tx:21.65 | let yourself be healed, in that same instant is his whole salvation | seen as complete with yours. Reason is given you to understand that |
| Tx:21.72 | dream. How would an army act in dreams? Any way at all. It could be | seen attacking anyone with anything. Dreams have no reason in them. A |
| Tx:22.1 | in the same place and time. Sin is a strictly individual perception, | seen in the other yet believed by each to be within himself. And each |
| Tx:22.2 | see their brothers different from themselves. It is this difference, | seen but not real, that makes the need for sin, not real but seen, |
| Tx:22.2 | seen but not real, that makes the need for sin, not real but | seen, seem justified. And all this would be real if sin were so. For |
| Tx:22.3 | starts from a different premise. Each one has looked within and | seen no lack. Accepting his completion, he would extend it by joining |
| Tx:22.13 | then, has joined them? Reason will tell you that they must have | seen each other through a vision not of the body and communicated in |
| Tx:22.24 | we see again another form of the same fundamental illusion we have | seen many times before. Only if it were possible the Son of God could |
| Tx:22.55 | a holy relationship there is no sin. The form of error is no longer | seen, and reason, joined with love, looks quietly on all confusion, |
| Tx:23.15 | when it is brought to truth! For it seems real only as long as it is | seen as war between conflicting truths, the conqueror to be the |
| Tx:23.24 | He must believe; and how He must respond, believing it. It is not | seen as even necessary that He be asked about the truth of what has |
| Tx:23.28 | All of the mechanisms of madness are | seen emerging here: the “enemy,” made strong by keeping hidden the |
| Tx:23.32 | is the function of insanity to take the place of truth. It must be | seen as truth to be believed. And if it is the truth, then must its |
| Tx:23.33 | laws must be perceived as real. Their goal of madness must be | seen as sanity. And fear, with ashen lips and sightless eyes, blinded |
| Tx:23.34 | strange device that makes it possible. Nor is it unfamiliar; we have | seen how it appears to function many times before. In truth it does |
| Tx:24.12 | Specialness always makes comparisons. It is established by a lack | seen in another and maintained by searching for and keeping clear in |
| Tx:24.42 | and how lovingly He walks beside him, showing him what can be | seen and heard and where he will see nothing and there is no sound to |
| Tx:24.71 | itself and no escape within its sight. Its course is sure when | seen through its own eyes. It grows and withers, flourishes and dies. |
| Tx:25.13 | outcome? For one thing is sure—the way you see, and long have | seen, gives no support to base your future hopes and no suggestions |
| Tx:25.14 | apart from this—some glimmering, inconstant, wavering, yet dimly | seen, that hopefulness is warranted on grounds that are not in this |
| Tx:25.15 | the frame is but a means to hold the picture up so that it can be | seen. A frame that hides the picture has no purpose. It cannot be a |
| Tx:25.20 | Him. And thus is yours completed. Not one ray of darkness can be | seen by those who will to make their Father's happiness complete and |
| Tx:25.26 | His Creator's purpose. In His perception of the world, nothing is | seen but justifies forgiveness and the sight of perfect sinlessness. |
| Tx:25.32 | the aim as such that varies. Yet it is the way in which the aim is | seen that makes the choice of means inevitable and beyond the hope of |
| Tx:25.48 | that you think you see in it is really there at all.] And this is | seen and understood as each one takes his part in its undoing, as he |
| Tx:25.56 | by time nor place nor anything God did not will. Yet if His Will is | seen as madness, then the form of sanity which makes it most |
| Tx:25.57 | but points to an alternative, another way of looking at what he has | seen before and recognizes as the world in which he lives and thought |
| Tx:25.65 | be defined without insanity where love means hate and death is | seen as victory and triumph over eternity and timelessness and life? |
| Tx:25.66 | for all that you would keep and not give up. So is the victim | seen as partly you, with someone else by far the greater part. And in |
| Tx:25.74 | Holy Spirit heeds not who looks on innocence at last, provided it is | seen and recognized. For just one witness is enough if he sees truly. |
| Tx:25.80 | is unfair. And every error is a perception in which one at least is | seen unfairly. Thus is justice not accorded to the Son of God. When |
| Tx:25.80 | Thus is justice not accorded to the Son of God. When anyone is | seen as losing, he has been condemned. And punishment becomes his due |
| Tx:25.82 | crucial to this course. For miracles depend on justice. Not as it is | seen through this world's eyes, but as God knows it, and as knowledge |
| Tx:26.4 | is asked of anyone. What witness to the wholeness of God's Son is | seen within a world of separate bodies, however much he witnesses to |
| Tx:26.5 | No instant passes here in which your brother's holiness cannot be | seen, to add a limitless supply to every meager scrap and tiny crumb |
| Tx:26.20 | place and time and choice have meaning still, and yet it can be | seen that they are temporary, out of place, and every choice has been |
| Tx:26.37 | as real is but a wish that what is gone could be made real again and | seen as here and now in place of what is really now and here. Is this |
| Tx:26.40 | remains, but still a present light is dimly recognized. Once it is | seen, this light can never be forgotten. It must draw you from the |
| Tx:26.47 | it has been healed and been replaced by sanity. Sickness and sin are | seen as consequence and cause in a relationship kept hidden from |
| Tx:26.50 | of truth forever will be true and cannot be reversed, yet can be | seen as upside-down. And this must be corrected where the illusion of |
| Tx:26.59 | you still feel guilty, though without understanding why. Effects are | seen as separate from their source and seem to be beyond you to |
| Tx:26.86 | then are given meaning and perceived as sensible. And only some are | seen as meaningless. And this denies the fact that all are senseless |
| Tx:26.87 | so firmly joined that where one is perceived, the other must be | seen. You cannot be unfairly treated. The belief you are is but |
| Tx:27.5 | It is a picture of a body still, for what you really are cannot be | seen nor pictured. Yet this one has not been used for purpose of |
| Tx:27.10 | of accusation and of blamefulness. Pictured without a purpose, it is | seen as neither sick nor well, nor bad nor good. No grounds are |
| Tx:27.12 | then, its purpose and your function both be reconciled at last and | seen as one. |
| Tx:27.21 | healing? Only those to whom their brother's sacrifice and pain are | seen to represent their own serenity. Their helplessness and weakness |
| Tx:27.25 | the central target for correction, lest your errors and his own be | seen as one. Yours are mistakes, but his are sins and not the same as |
| Tx:27.32 | An empty space which is not | seen as filled, an unused interval of time not seen as spent and |
| Tx:27.32 | space which is not seen as filled, an unused interval of time not | seen as spent and fully occupied, becomes a silent invitation to the |
| Tx:27.34 | vanishes and symbols fade, and nothing which the eyes have ever | seen or ears have heard remains to be perceived. |
| Tx:27.36 | will be plain. A problem set in conflict has no answer, for it is | seen in different ways. And what would be an answer from one point of |
| Tx:27.50 | at transfer, which becomes complete within two situations which are | seen as one, for only common elements are there. Yet this can only be |
| Tx:27.52 | different witnesses it finds. Your brother first among them will be | seen, but thousands stand behind him, and beyond each one there are a |
| Tx:27.62 | who bears the suffering. And he cannot escape because its source is | seen outside himself. |
| Tx:27.63 | will not be difficult, because the problem is absurd when clearly | seen. No one has difficulty making up his mind to let a simple |
| Tx:27.63 | making up his mind to let a simple problem be resolved if it is | seen as hurting him and also very easily removed. |
| Tx:27.67 | the witness to the world of evil cannot speak except for what has | seen a need for evil in the world. And this is where your guilt was |
| Tx:27.70 | Who could be free to choose between effects when only one is | seen as up to him? |
| Tx:27.76 | you dream your Father gives to you. Let all your brother's gifts be | seen in light of charity and kindness offered you. And let no pain |
| Tx:27.77 | without the dream, in which it acts as if it were a person, to be | seen and be believed. It takes the central place in every dream, |
| Tx:27.81 | and could never have conceived this world as real. He would have | seen at once that these ideas are one illusion, too ridiculous for |
| Tx:28.18 | in that recognition, causelessness is given no effects and none are | seen. A mind within a body and a world of other bodies, each with |
| Tx:28.25 | enemies perceived as friends with merciful intent. Their enmity is | seen as causeless now, because they did not make it. And you can |
| Tx:28.30 | Yet in the dreaming has this been reversed, and separate minds are | seen as bodies which are separated and which cannot join. Do not |
| Tx:28.30 | abandoned him to his own dream by sharing it with him. He has not | seen the cause of sickness where it is, and you have overlooked the |
| Tx:28.35 | afraid, but let your world be lit by miracles. And where the gap was | seen to stand between you, join your brother there. And sickness will |
| Tx:28.35 | to stand between you, join your brother there. And sickness will be | seen without a cause. The dream of healing in forgiveness lies and |
| Tx:28.47 | and separating from? A gap perceived between [ourselves] and what is | seen as health? The good is seen outside; the evil, in. And thus is |
| Tx:28.47 | between [ourselves] and what is seen as health? The good is | seen outside; the evil, in. And thus is sickness separating off the |
| Tx:28.51 | no sound. Yet are there other sounds and other sights which can be | seen and heard and understood. For eyes and ears are senses without |
| Tx:28.51 | Let not the body's ears and eyes perceive these countless fragments | seen within the gap which you imagined, and let them persuade their |
| Tx:28.54 | Who punishes the body is insane. For here the little gap is | seen, and yet it is not here. It has not judged itself nor made |
| Tx:28.62 | lacks foundation in the truth. And yet, because it does, it can be | seen as not your home but merely as an aid to help you reach the home |
| Tx:28.66 | the safety of this shelter and its Source? From here the body can be | seen as what it is and neither less nor more in worth than the extent |
| Tx:29.2 | Here is the fear of God most plainly | seen. For love is treacherous to those who fear, since fear and hate |
| Tx:29.5 | unless you wanted it to be a cause of separation and of distance | seen between you. Thus do you endow it with a power that lies not |
| Tx:29.7 | be feared and only sometimes present, sometimes gone. Thus is love | seen as treacherous because it seems to come and go uncertainly and |
| Tx:29.11 | not as yet perceived. And its effects are there, though not yet | seen. Look inward now, and you will not behold a reason for regret |
| Tx:29.26 | you like would hold you back as much as those in which the fear is | seen. For every dream is but a dream of fear, no matter what the form |
| Tx:29.26 | dream of fear, no matter what the form it seems to take. The fear is | seen within, without, or both. Or it can be disguised in pleasant |
| Tx:29.52 | Do you think you know? For idols are unrecognized as such and never | seen for what they really are. That is the only power which they |
| Tx:29.54 | a wish made tangible and given form and thus perceived as real and | seen outside the mind. Yet it is still a thought and cannot leave the |
| Tx:29.65 | from his thoughts. Yet do they keep his thoughts alive and real but | seen outside himself, where they can turn against him for his |
| Tx:29.67 | is but a dream. Except the figures have been changed. They are not | seen as idols which betray. It is a dream in which no one is used to |
| Tx:30.46 | anchored sure. Its perfect purity does not depend on whether it is | seen on earth or not. The sky embraces it and softly holds it in its |
| Tx:30.57 | world is the state of mind in which the only purpose of the world is | seen to be forgiveness. Fear is not its goal, and the escape from |
| Tx:30.61 | and nowhere and are purposeless. For only then can guilt and sin be | seen without a purpose and as meaningless. |
| Tx:30.87 | they have no meaning. For there is no light by which they can be | seen and understood. They have no purpose. And what they are for |
| Tx:30.87 | understood. They have no purpose. And what they are for cannot be | seen. In any thought of loss, there is no meaning. No one has agreed |
| Tx:31.11 | becomes the means whereby the choice is reassessed; another outcome | seen to be preferred. You are deceived if you believe you want |
| Tx:31.28 | Sins are in bodies. They are not perceived in minds. They are not | seen as purposes but actions. Bodies act, and minds do not. And |
| Tx:31.28 | And therefore must the body be at fault for what it does. It is not | seen to be a passive thing, obeying your commands and doing nothing |
| Tx:31.40 | There is a choice which you have power to make when you have | seen the real alternatives. Until that point is reached, you have no |
| Tx:31.56 | he must find the answer to the riddle of himself. Salvation can be | seen as nothing more than the escape from concepts. It does not |
| Tx:31.63 | now an instant hence. Who could have trust where so much change is | seen, for who is worthy if he be but dust? Salvation is undoing of |
| Tx:31.66 | But concepts are not difficult to change. One vision, clearly | seen, that does not fit the picture as it was perceived before will |
| Tx:31.67 | promise of corruption and the stain of sin upon you? So the world is | seen as stable, fully worthy of your trust; a happy place to rest in |
| Tx:31.70 | grows decreasingly persistent in your sight and will at length be | seen as little more than just a shadow circling round the good. And |
| Tx:31.78 | his holiness while you see him apart from yours? For holiness is | seen through holy eyes that look upon the innocence within and thus |
| Tx:31.88 | merely those who chose His strength instead of their own weakness, | seen apart from Him. They will redeem the world, for they are joined |
| W1:15.2 | much meaning for you. You will begin to understand it when you have | seen little edges of light around the same familiar objects which you |
| W1:28.2 | you are not seeing at all. You either see or not. When you have | seen one thing differently, you will see all things differently. The |
| W1:30.1 | you, and you will look upon it and see in it what you have never | seen before. Nor will what you saw before be even faintly visible to |
| W1:35.2 | of this environment. What you see while you believe you are in it is | seen through the eyes of the image. This is not vision. Images cannot |
| W1:51.4 | But there is every reason to let it go and make room for what can be | seen and understood and loved. I can exchange what I see now for this |
| W1:58.2 | as guilty. I can accept the innocence that is the truth about me. | Seen through understanding eyes, the holiness of the world is all I |
| W1:66.9 | The second premise is that God has given you your function. We have | seen that there are only two parts of your mind. One is ruled by the |
| W1:72.9 | perception has been ruinous to your peace of mind. You have | seen yourself in a body and the truth outside you, locked away from |
| W1:75.4 | inevitable. Today the real world rises before us in gladness, to be | seen at last. Sight is given us, now that the light has come. |
| W1:78.6 | lay hidden while you saw him not is there in everyone and can be | seen. He who was enemy is more than friend when he is freed to take |
| W1:80.2 | Spirit to give you God's answer. You have laid deception aside and | seen the light of truth. You have accepted salvation for yourself by |
| W1:86.2 | It is senseless for me to search wildly about for salvation. I have | seen it in many people and in many things, but when I reached for it, |
| W1:89.4 | you [name], but offer you the miracle that belongs to you instead. | Seen truly, this offers me a miracle. |
| W1:91.7 | Miracles are | seen in light. The body's eyes do not perceive the light. But I am |
| W1:91.14 | at reasonably regular intervals remind yourself that miracles are | seen in light. Also, be sure to meet temptation with today's idea. |
| W1:91.15 | Miracles are | seen in light. Let me not close my eyes because of this. |
| W1:92.3 | afraid, the sad, the poor, the starving, and the joyless. These are | seen through eyes which cannot see and cannot bless. |
| W1:95.4 | extended attempts. You have surely realized this by now. You have | seen the extent of your lack of mental discipline and of your need |
| W1:108.2 | darkness cannot be perceived at all. And thus what is the same is | seen as one, while what is not the same remains unnoticed, for it is |
| W1:108.4 | Here are both giving and receiving | seen as different aspects of one Thought Whose truth does not depend |
| W1:108.4 | aspects of one Thought Whose truth does not depend on which is | seen as first, nor which appears to be in second place. Here it is |
| W1:108.6 | same has special usefulness because it can be tried so easily and | seen as true. And when this special case has proved it always works |
| W1:111.2 | [91] Miracles are | seen in light. I cannot see in darkness. Let the light of holiness |
| W1:111.3 | [92] Miracles are | seen in light, and light and strength are one. I see through |
| W1:111.5 | Miracles are | seen in light. |
| W1:111.7 | Miracles are | seen in light, and light and strength are one. |
| W1:129.11 | Now do we understand there is no loss, for we have | seen its opposite at last, and we are grateful that the choice is |
| W1:130.3 | What, then, can fear project upon the world? What can be | seen in darkness that is real? Truth is eclipsed by fear, and what |
| W1:130.10 | it is not the kind of seeing that your eyes alone have ever | seen before. And you will know God's strength upheld as you made this |
| W1:134.1 | a complete denial of the truth. In such a view, forgiveness must be | seen as mere eccentric folly, and this course appear to rest |
| W1:135.10 | Defend the body, and you have attacked your mind. For you have | seen in it the faults, the weaknesses, the limits, and the lacks from |
| W1:136.1 | a meaningful intent of any kind, it cannot be at all. When this is | seen, healing is automatic. It dispels this meaningless illusion by |
| W1:136.2 | of all defenses is to keep the truth from being whole. The parts are | seen as if each one were whole within itself. |
| W1:136.7 | When parts are wrested from the whole and | seen as separate and as wholes within themselves, they become symbols |
| W1:136.7 | for attack upon the whole, successful in effect, and never to be | seen as whole again. And yet you have forgotten that they stand but |
| W1:137.6 | love becomes a dream, while fear remains the one reality that can be | seen and justified and fully understood. |
| W1:137.7 | which you hold before the simple truth. When sickness has been | seen to disappear in spite of all the laws that hold it cannot but be |
| W1:138.7 | for ending opposition is to die. And thus salvation must be | seen as death, for life is seen as conflict. To resolve the conflict |
| W1:138.7 | is to die. And thus salvation must be seen as death, for life is | seen as conflict. To resolve the conflict is to end your life as well. |
| W1:138.9 | The choice cannot be made until alternatives are accurately | seen and understood. All that is veiled in shadows must be raised to |
| W1:138.10 | and is brought to light. Who can decide between the clearly | seen and the unrecognized? Yet who can fail to make a choice between |
| W1:138.10 | who can fail to make a choice between alternatives when only one is | seen as valuable, the other as a wholly worthless thing, a but |
| W1:140.2 | dream, and so his mind remains exactly as it was before. He has not | seen the light that would awaken him and end the dream. What |
| W1:R4.5 | are—defenses which protect your unforgiving thoughts from being | seen and recognized. Their purpose is to show you something else and |
| W1:153.6 | choice is always made between His strength and your own weakness | seen apart from Him. Defenselessness can never be attacked because it |
| W1:156.6 | and in laughter is it gone, because its quaint absurdity is | seen. It is a foolish thought, a silly dream, not frightening, |
| W1:159.5 | seem quite solid here are merely shadows there, transparent, faintly | seen, at times forgot, and never able to obscure the light that |
| W1:161.7 | An enemy must be perceived in such a form he can be touched and | seen and heard and ultimately killed. When hatred rests upon a thing, |
| W1:161.15 | of God in you and answer in your own. Behold him now whom you had | seen as merely flesh and bone and recognize that Christ has come to |
| W1:162.1 | answer to the world you made. By them it disappears, and all things | seen within its misty clouds and vaporous illusions vanish as these |
| W1:163.3 | All things but death are | seen to be unsure, too quickly lost however hard to gain, uncertain |
| W1:167.3 | death is of the body. Yet it is but an idea, irrelevant to what is | seen as physical. A thought is in the mind. It can be then applied as |
| W1:184.3 | them as well. For what is named is given meaning and will then be | seen as meaningful, a cause of true effects with consequence inherent |
| W1:184.6 | stand. They leave no doubt that what is named is there. It can be | seen, as is anticipated. What denies that it is true is but illusion, |
| W1:186.9 | break apart to group again, and scamper off. Or like mirages | seen above a desert, rising from the dust. |
| W1:188.2 | of dreams or from a truer source, that is not but the shadow of the | seen through inward vision. There perception starts, and there it |

| M:4.20 | ultimate interpretation of all things in time, no outcome already | seen or yet to come can cause them fear. |
| M:5.2 | conviction that it is strength. When this occurs, real strength is | seen as threat and health as danger. Sickness is a method, conceived |
| M:5.2 | in madness, for placing God's Son on his Father's throne. God is | seen as outside, fierce and powerful, eager to keep all power for |
| M:5.7 | they seemed to cause. Cause and effect but replicate creation. | Seen in their proper perspective, without distortion and without |
| M:6.1 | Truth demonstrates illusions have no value. The teacher of God has | seen the correction of his errors in the mind of the patient, |

| M:13.5 | world that does not demand this, for otherwise the pleasure would be | seen as pain. And no one asks for pain if he recognizes it. It is the |
| M:14.1 | need or gratify a want. Perceived as purposeless, they are no longer | seen. Their uselessness is recognized, and they are gone. How but in |

| M:28.4 | dreams of fear, and misperceptions of the universe. All things are | seen in light, and in the light their purpose is transformed and |
| M:28.5 | sight is needed? What remains that vision could accomplish? We have | seen the face of Christ, His sinlessness, His love behind all forms, |

| Tx:7.53 | therefore to His Sons. This is the true communion of the Spirit, Who | sees the altar of God in everyone and, by bringing it to your |

| Tx:10.45 | of your dependence on God in which your freedom lies. The ego | sees all dependency as threatening and has twisted even your longing |
| Tx:10.71 | The ego | sees some good but never only good. That is why its perceptions are |
| Tx:11.68 | from each other because you made them different. The mind then | sees a divided world outside itself but not within. This gives it an |
| Tx:11.79 | invisible. Yet it cannot be invisible in itself, for the Holy Spirit | sees it with perfect clarity. It is invisible to you because you are |
| Tx:11.79 | to decide what reality is. What can be seen is what the Holy Spirit | sees. The definition of reality is God's, not yours. He created it, |
| Tx:11.82 | because his vision is shared. The Holy Spirit looks upon him and | sees nothing else in you. What is invisible to you is perfect in His |

| Tx:12.34 | of this that private worlds do differ. Yet the figures that he | sees were never real, for they are made up only of his reactions to |
| Tx:12.42 | all in light. Your vision comes from fear, as His from love. And He | sees for you as your witness to the real world. He is the Holy |
| Tx:12.42 | forth its witnesses and drawing them unto you. For He loves what He | sees within you, and He would extend it. And He will not return unto |
| Tx:12.43 | what He is, He knows His Father. Beyond your darkest dreams, He | sees God's guiltless Son within you, shining in perfect radiance, |
| Tx:12.44 | upon themselves with love, seeing themselves as the Holy Spirit | sees them. And with this vision of the truth in them came all the |
| Tx:12.69 | it, it will be wrenched and hurled into the dust. For where the ego | sees salvation, it sees separation, and so you lose whatever you have |

| Tx:13.35 | with the perceived and harsh intrusion of guilt on peace. Yet no one | sees himself in conflict and ravaged by a cruel war unless he |
| Tx:13.57 | kings with golden crowns because of them. All this the Holy Spirit | sees and teaches simply that all this is not true. To these unhappy |
| Tx:14.4 | as like himself, making them unable to communicate because each | sees the other unlike the way he sees himself. God can communicate |
| Tx:14.4 | unable to communicate because each sees the other unlike the way he | sees himself. God can communicate only to the Holy Spirit in your |
| Tx:14.14 | you see as guiltless. Crucifixion is always the ego's aim. It | sees as guilty, and by its condemnation, it would kill. The Holy |
| Tx:14.14 | as guilty, and by its condemnation, it would kill. The Holy Spirit | sees only guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would release from |
| Tx:14.30 | darkness open to Him. But what you hide He cannot look upon. For He | sees for you, and unless you look with Him, He cannot see. The vision |
| Tx:15.70 | what it really wants. Yet the ego acknowledges “reality” as it | sees it and recognizes that no one could interpret direct attack as |
| Tx:15.91 | and renounce its use for separation and attack which the ego | sees in it, you will learn you have no need of a body at all. In the |
| Tx:16.2 | itself. [Having identified with what it thinks it understands, it | sees itself and would increase itself by sharing what is like |
| Tx:16.47 | of the “victory” even to the final triumph over God. In this it | sees the ultimate freedom of the self, for nothing would remain to |
| Tx:16.50 | Where both partners see this special self in each other, the ego | sees “a union made in Heaven.” For neither one will recognize that he |
| Tx:16.62 | even one whole individual. For the ego wants but part of him and | sees only this part and nothing else. |
| Tx:16.72 | ego holds the past against you, and in your escape from the past, it | sees itself deprived of the vengeance it believes that you so justly |
| Tx:17.23 | This is the only part of the relationship the Holy Spirit | sees because He knows that only this is true. You have made the |

| Tx:17.62 | Where the goal of truth is set, there faith must be. The Holy Spirit | sees the situation as a whole. The goal establishes the fact that |
| Tx:18.2 | perceives one person as a replacement for another, the Holy Spirit | sees them joined and indivisible. He does not judge between them, |
| Tx:18.2 | can come between what God has joined and what the Holy Spirit | sees as one. But everything seems to come between the fragmented |
| Tx:18.88 | The circle of fear lies just below the level the body | sees and seems to be the whole foundation on which the world is |
| Tx:19.12 | already forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid upon himself. Faith | sees him only now because it looks not to the past to judge him, but |
| Tx:19.12 | to judge him, but would see in him only what it would see in you. It | sees not through the body's eyes nor looks to bodies for its |
| Tx:19.13 | And the mind that receives it looks instantly beyond the body and | sees the holy place where it was healed. There is the altar where the |
| Tx:19.28 | keep unheard and thus unanswered? In time the Holy Spirit clearly | sees the Son of God can make mistakes. On this you share His vision. |
| Tx:19.49 | It is the nature of love to look upon only the truth, for there it | sees itself, with which it would unite in holy union and completion. |
| Tx:19.49 | [Love is attracted only to love.] Overlooking guilt completely, it | sees no fear. Being wholly without attack, it could not be afraid. |
| Tx:19.49 | attack, it could not be afraid. Fear is attracted to what love | sees not, and each believes that what the other looks upon does not |
| Tx:19.54 | messengers to send to each other and return to each with what love | sees. They have been given to replace the hungry dogs of fear you |
| Tx:19.58 | store and make your lives complete. This is completion, as the ego | sees it. For guilt creeps in where happiness has been removed and |
| Tx:19.71 | that this relationship be understood, for it is one the ego | sees as proof of sin. It is not really punitive at all. It is but the |
| Tx:19.97 | of each other's illusions and through the eyes of faith, which | sees them not. |
| Tx:19.107 | as guiltless as I look on you, and overlook the sins he thinks he | sees within himself. Offer each other freedom and complete release |
| Tx:20.7 | Each gift is an evaluation of the receiver and the giver. No one but | sees in his chosen home an altar to himself. No one but seeks to draw |
| Tx:20.9 | purpose shine forth from every altar now is yours as well as His. He | sees no strangers, only dearly loved and loving friends. He sees no |
| Tx:20.9 | His. He sees no strangers, only dearly loved and loving friends. He | sees no thorns, but only lilies, gleaming in the gentle glow of peace |
| Tx:20.28 | to sin, and therefore it has none; nor to its results as this world | sees them—sickness and death and misery and pain. These things have |
| Tx:20.28 | and pain. These things have not occurred because the Holy Spirit | sees them not and gives no power to their seeming source. Thus would |
| Tx:20.41 | function, for minds need not the body to communicate. The sight that | sees the body has no use which serves the purpose of a holy |
| Tx:20.43 | yet he knows it not. No more do you. And yet, have faith that He Who | sees the gift in both of you will offer and receive it for you both. |
| Tx:20.44 | Spirit watching over you in love and perfect confidence in what He | sees. He knows the Son of God and shares his Father's certainty the |
| Tx:20.49 | does not build His temples where love can never be. Would He Who | sees the face of Christ choose as His home the only place in all the |
| Tx:20.63 | Who | sees a brother's body has laid a judgment on him and sees him not. He |
| Tx:20.63 | Who sees a brother's body has laid a judgment on him and | sees him not. He does not really see him as sinful; he does not see |
| Tx:20.66 | seeing look upon is sinless. No one who loves can judge, and what he | sees is free of condemnation. And what he sees he did not make, for |
| Tx:20.66 | can judge, and what he sees is free of condemnation. And what he | sees he did not make, for it was given him to see, as was the vision |
| Tx:21.32 | your faith was laid. This is His direction, the only one He ever | sees. And when you wander, He reminds you there is but one. His faith |
| Tx:21.34 | away from sin because His purpose lies in the opposite direction. He | sees the means you use but not the purpose for which you made them. |
| Tx:21.34 | for which you made them. He would not take them from you, for He | sees their value as a means for what He wills for you. You made |
| Tx:21.34 | among your brothers and seek for sin with them. The Holy Spirit | sees perception as a means to teach you that the vision of a holy |
| Tx:21.47 | brings to it hope of peace. For it remembers Heaven, and now it | sees that Heaven has come to earth at last, from which the ego's rule |
| Tx:21.51 | in them, you will perceive another Self in you. This other Self | sees miracles as natural. They are as simple and natural to It as |
| Tx:21.60 | perceive the other innocent. Who looks upon himself as guilty and | sees a sinless world? And who can see a sinful world and look upon |
| Tx:21.65 | you because he must be one with you. You are responsible for how he | sees himself. And reason tells you it is given you to change his |
| Tx:21.66 | seem to be a burden to you? In madness, yes. And yet what madness | sees must be dispelled by reason. Reason assures you Heaven is what |
| Tx:21.82 | are willing to exchange the world of sin for what the Holy Spirit | sees, since it is this the world of sin denies. And therefore those |
| Tx:21.83 | happiness, but he may do so if he does not see he does it. And if he | sees his happiness as ever changing, now this, now that, and now an |
| Tx:21.84 | of the Son of God's desire remains the proof that he is wrong who | sees himself as helpless. Desire what you will, and you will look on |
| Tx:21.87 | as its Creator is in what He knows, it looks on everything and | sees it is the same. It sees not the ephemeral, for it desires that |
| Tx:21.87 | in what He knows, it looks on everything and sees it is the same. It | sees not the ephemeral, for it desires that everything be like itself |
| Tx:21.87 | not the ephemeral, for it desires that everything be like itself and | sees it so. Nothing has power to confound its constancy because its |
| Tx:22.3 | he would extend it by joining with another, whole as himself. He | sees no difference between these selves, for differences are only of |
| Tx:22.6 | what can it show to you? The brain cannot interpret what your vision | sees. This you would understand. The brain interprets to the body, of |
| Tx:22.7 | became your sight. Yet it must be the “something else” which | sees, and as not you, explains its sight to you. Your vision would, |
| Tx:22.7 | this thing to lead you, asking it to explain to you the world it | sees, you have no reason not to listen nor to suspect that what it |
| Tx:22.9 | difficulty in understanding what this vision tells you, for everyone | sees only what he thinks he is. And what your sight would show you, |
| Tx:22.10 | to him at different times. Neither the sounds he hears nor sights he | sees are stable yet. But what he hears and does not understand will |
| Tx:22.10 | around him, and they with him. And the strange, shifting ones he | sees about him will become to him his comforters, and he will |
| Tx:22.11 | For no two people can unite except through Christ, Whose vision | sees them one. |
| Tx:22.20 | must be eternal. Yet reason looks on this another way, for reason | sees the source of an idea as what will make it true or false. This |
| Tx:22.30 | to see your errors and make way for their correction. For reason | sees through errors, telling you what you thought was real is not. |
| Tx:22.31 | so thick it would be madness to attempt to pass it. Yet reason | sees through it easily because it is an error. The form it takes |
| Tx:22.34 | idea they represent left not its maker, and it is their maker that | sees through them. What was its maker's goal but not to see? For this |
| Tx:22.37 | each one is valued because he seems to justify the other's sin. He | sees within the other what impels him to sin against his will. And |
| Tx:22.37 | himself as causing sin by his desire to have sin real. Yet reason | sees a holy relationship as what it is—a common state of mind, |
| Tx:23.32 | No one wants madness, nor does anyone cling to his madness if he | sees that this is what it is. What protects madness is the belief |
| Tx:23.34 | and disregard of content. No one who thinks that one of them is true | sees what it says. Some forms it takes seem to have meaning, and that |
| Tx:24.16 | see his specialness at all. Christ's vision is their “enemy,” for it | sees not what they would look upon, and it would show them that the |
| Tx:24.40 | loves and knows it as Himself. And thus does He rejoice at what He | sees because He knows that it is one with Him and with His Father. |
| Tx:24.40 | with Him and with His Father. Specialness, too, takes joy in what it | sees, although it is not true. Yet what you seek for is a source of |
| Tx:24.42 | but from forgiveness? The Christ in you looks only on the truth and | sees no condemnation that could need forgiveness. He is at peace |
| Tx:24.42 | condemnation that could need forgiveness. He is at peace because He | sees no sin. Identify with Him, and what has He that you have not? He |
| Tx:24.42 | eyes, your ears, your hands, your feet. How gentle are the sights He | sees, the sounds He hears. How beautiful His hand that holds His |
| Tx:24.52 | is all the world is for. That is the only purpose the Holy Spirit | sees in it and thus the only one it has. Until you see the healing of |
| Tx:24.52 | is not there and all belief God's Son can suffer pain because he | sees himself as he is not. |
| Tx:24.58 | can see your brother truly. Would you decide against the holiness He | sees? |
| Tx:25.19 | be given you. However much he overlooks the masterpiece in him and | sees only a frame of darkness, it is still your only function to |
| Tx:25.19 | of darkness, it is still your only function to behold in him what he | sees not. And in this seeing is the vision shared that looks on |
| Tx:25.22 | completion to your brother. See not in him the sinfulness he | sees, but give him honor that you may esteem yourself and him. To |
| Tx:25.30 | been wrong. And thus is change made possible. The Holy Spirit too | sees what He sees as far beyond the chance of change. But on His |
| Tx:25.30 | And thus is change made possible. The Holy Spirit too sees what He | sees as far beyond the chance of change. But on His vision sin cannot |
| Tx:25.55 | would look beyond the madness and rest peacefully on truth. Each | sees a world immutable, as each defines the changeless and eternal |
| Tx:25.57 | of form most suitable to him; one which will not attack the world he | sees, but enter into it in quietness and show him he is mad. This One |
| Tx:25.58 | wants. From this position does his sinfulness and all the sin he | sees within the world offer him less and less— until he comes to |
| Tx:25.74 | it is seen and recognized. For just one witness is enough if he | sees truly. Simple justice asks no more. Of each one does the Holy |
| Tx:25.81 | any kind He cannot see. The world solves problems in another way. It | sees a resolution as a state in which it is decided who shall win and |
| Tx:25.87 | receiving are the same. Because it does not make the same unlike, it | sees no differences where none exist. And thus it is the same for |
| Tx:25.87 | where none exist. And thus it is the same for everyone, because it | sees no differences in them. Its offering is universal, and it |
| Tx:26.7 | by you than can the light in you be blotted out because he | sees it not. You who would make a sacrifice of life and make your |
| Tx:26.9 | Condemn him not by seeing him within the rotting prison where he | sees himself. It is your special function to ensure the door be |
| Tx:26.25 | Forgiveness always rests upon the one who offers it until he | sees himself as needing it no more. And thus is he returned to his |
| Tx:26.89 | rendering it purposeless, without the function that the Holy Spirit | sees. And simple justice has been thus denied to every living thing |
| Tx:27.19 | you wished him well. This is the law the miracle obeys; that healing | sees no specialness at all. It does not come from pity but from love. |
| Tx:27.27 | be shared, and so it cannot be the function which the Holy Spirit | sees as His. And you can rest assured that He will not fulfill a |
| Tx:27.57 | God's Witness | sees no witnesses against the body. Neither does He harken to the |
| Tx:27.62 | is unconscious of what brought on the attack against himself, he | sees himself attacked unjustly and by something not himself. He is |
| Tx:27.65 | not hold has made upon himself. This is the purpose of the world he | sees. And looked at thus, the world provides the means by which this |
| Tx:27.68 | cause they have is something quite apart from him, and what he | sees is separate from his mind. He cannot doubt his dreams' reality |
| Tx:27.80 | a figure in a dream. But who reacts to figures in a dream unless he | sees them as if they were real? The instant that he sees them as they |
| Tx:27.80 | dream unless he sees them as if they were real? The instant that he | sees them as they are, they have no more effects on him because he |
| Tx:27.89 | of suffering to Him Who knows that every one is like the rest. He | sees no differences where none exist, and He will teach you how each |
| Tx:28.7 | ancient that it far exceeds the span of memory which your perception | sees. |
| Tx:28.21 | The dreamer of a dream is not awake but does not know he sleeps. He | sees illusions of himself as sick or well, depressed or happy, but |
| Tx:28.22 | that his wishes have been done. Thus does he fear his own attack but | sees it at another's hands. As victim, he is suffering from its |
| Tx:28.44 | just a little broken bit which he insisted was himself. And when he | sees this picture, he will recognize himself. If you share not your |
| Tx:28.56 | it is, but for the uses you have made of it. You shrink from what it | sees and what it hears and hate its frailty and littleness. And you |
| Tx:28.56 | and littleness. And you despise its acts but not your own. It | sees and acts for you. It hears your voice. And it is frail and |
| Tx:29.37 | of fear in every dream that has been kept apart from use by Him Who | sees a different function for a dream. When dreams are shared, they |
| Tx:29.67 | nor interposed between the thoughts the mind conceives and what it | sees. No one is used for something he is not, for childish things |
| Tx:30.2 | practice with the ones you recognize, a set begins to form which | sees you through the rest. It is not wise to let yourself become |
| Tx:30.73 | of God the sure result of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who | sees himself as guilty can avoid the fear of God. But he is saved |
| Tx:31.5 | learning is the only purpose for your learning skill the Holy Spirit | sees in all the world. His simple lessons in forgiveness have a power |
| Tx:31.37 | he should begin with this, to seek another way instead? For while he | sees a choice where there is none, what power of decision can he use? |
| Tx:31.43 | world of shadows and illusions. Here it walks at home, where what it | sees is one with it. The building of a concept of the self is what |
| Tx:31.75 | when first he looks upon one brother as he looks upon himself and | sees the mirror of himself in him. Thus is the concept of himself |
| Tx:31.78 | savior's vision—that he see his innocence in all he looks upon and | sees his own salvation everywhere. He holds no concept of himself |
| Tx:31.78 | no concept of himself between his calm and open eyes and what he | sees. He brings the light to what he looks upon, that he may see it |
| Tx:31.80 | your brother is as it is free of any judgment made upon yourself. It | sees no past in anyone at all. And thus it serves a wholly open mind, |
| W1:8.1 | is, of course, the reason why you see only the past. No one really | sees anything. He sees only his thoughts projected outward. The |

| W1:92.4 | lies beyond them. It unites with light, of which it is a part. It | sees itself. It brings the light in which your Self appears. In |

| W1:92.7 | and it attacks and hates itself, and darkness covers everything it | sees, leaving its dreams as fearful as itself. No miracles are here, |
| W1:92.7 | miracles are here, but only hate. It separates itself from what it | sees, while light and strength perceive themselves as one. |
| W1:96.6 | from Spirit cannot think. It has denied its Source of strength and | sees itself as helpless, limited, and weak. Dissociated from its |

| W1:121.3 | mind is torn with doubt, confused about itself and all it | sees, afraid and angry, weak and blustering, afraid to go ahead, |
| W1:121.4 | except the proof that all its sins are real? The unforgiving mind | sees no mistakes, but only sins. It looks upon the world with |
| W1:121.4 | wants to live, yet wishes it were dead. It wants forgiveness, yet it | sees no hope. It wants escape, yet can conceive of none because it |

| W1:121.5 | itself to this despair. It thinks it cannot change, for what it | sees bears witness that its judgment is correct. It does not ask |
| W1:124.8 | to guide your meditation. We will trust God's Voice to speak as He | sees fit today, certain He will not fail. Abide with Him this half an |
| W1:132.1 | in their effects as is the truth. A madman thinks the world he | sees is real and does not doubt it. Nor can he be swayed by |
| W1:134.7 | only thing that stands for truth in the illusions of the world. It | sees their nothingness and looks right through the thousand forms in |
| W1:134.8 | strength of pardon is its honesty, which is so uncorrupted that it | sees illusions as illusions, not as truth. It is because of this that |
| W1:137.3 | the unity that gives it life. But healing is accomplished as he | sees the body has no power to attack the universal oneness of God's |
| W1:140.1 | what will make the body “better.” When it tries to heal the mind, it | sees no separation from the body, where it thinks the mind exists. |
| W1:151.5 | believe. It is itself alone that it condemns. It is within itself it | sees the guilt. It is its own despair it sees in you. |
| W1:151.5 | It is within itself it sees the guilt. It is its own despair it | sees in you. |
| W1:151.7 | He recognizes only what God loves, and in the holy light of what He | sees do all the ego's dreams of what you are vanish before the |
| W1:151.13 | And then we watch our thoughts, appealing silently to Him Who | sees the elements of truth in them. Let Him evaluate each thought |
| W1:158.5 | are joined in knowledge. Yet there is a vision which the Holy Spirit | sees because the mind of Christ beholds it too. |
| W1:158.7 | mistakes, and fearful thoughts of guilt from dreams of sin. It | sees no separation. And it looks on everyone, on every circumstance, |
| W1:158.7 | and all events without the slightest fading of the light it | sees. |
| W1:159.3 | but has been kept obscure. Christ's vision pictures Heaven, for it | sees a world so like to Heaven that what God created perfect can be |
| W1:160.9 | has come to search the world for what belongs to Him. His vision | sees no strangers, but beholds His own and joyously unites with them. |

| W1:161.8 | Who sees a brother as a body | sees him as fear's symbol. And he will attack because what he beholds |
| W1:161.9 | will take his hand instead, for you are like him in the sight that | sees him thus. |
| W1:164.1 | not in our sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks past time and | sees eternity as represented there. He hears the sounds the senseless |
| W1:166.5 | look at what is given him. He wanders on, aware of the futility he | sees about him everywhere, perceiving how his little lot but dwindles |
| W1:167.10 | shuts his eyes or makes himself what he is not because he sleeps and | sees in dreams an opposite to what he is? We will not ask for death |
| W1:167.12 | so are we now and will forever be. A sleeping mind must waken as it | sees its own perfection mirroring the Lord of Life so perfectly it |
| W1:R5.10 | you practice once again the thoughts I brought to you from Him Who | sees your bitter need and knows the answer God has given Him. |
| W1:184.4 | upon them. And a lack of space, a sense of unity or vision which | sees differently become the threats which it must overcome, conflict |
| W1:186.13 | has thoughts which answer every need His Son perceives, although He | sees them not. For Love must give, and what is given in His Name |
| W1:189.2 | watches through the night as silent guardian of your holy sleep. It | sees salvation in you and protects the light in you in which it sees |
| W1:189.2 | It sees salvation in you and protects the light in you in which it | sees its own. It offers you its flowers and its snow in thankfulness |
| W1:190.1 | witnesses to God the Father's hatred of His Son, the sinfulness He | sees in him, and His insane desire for revenge and death. Can such |
| W1:192.4 | Forgiveness gently looks upon all things unknown in Heaven, | sees them disappear, and leaves the world a clean and unmarked slate |
| W1:192.8 | Who can be born again in Christ but him who has forgiven everyone he | sees or thinks of or imagines? Who could be set free while he |
| W1:193.2 | God | sees no contradictions. Yet His Son believes he sees them. Thus he |
| W1:193.2 | God sees no contradictions. Yet His Son believes he | sees them. Thus he has a need for One Who can correct his erring |
| W1:193.11 | learned. And there remains an unforgiveness hiding in the mind which | sees the pain through eyes the mind directs. |
| W1:195.1 | while others have less cause, and who could suffer less because he | sees another suffer more? Your gratitude is due to Him alone Who made |
| W1:196.2 | that punishment can never be escaped because the ego, under what it | sees as threat, is quick to cite the truth to save its lies. Yet must |
| W1:199.1 | it cannot be found. The mind can be made free when it no longer | sees itself as in a body, firmly tied to it and sheltered by its |
| W1:199.4 | because you have no need of it except the need the Holy Spirit | sees. For this, the body will appear as useful form for what the mind |
| W2:WF.1 | you has not occurred. It does not pardon sins and make them real. It | sees there was no sin. And in this view are all your sins forgiven. |
| W2:WF.1 | What is sin except a false idea about God's Son? Forgiveness merely | sees its falsity and therefore lets it go. What then is free to take |
| W2:WF.3 | action, it pursues its goal, twisting and overturning what it | sees as interfering with its chosen path. Distortion is its purpose |
| W2:WF.5 | His function and forgive whom He has saved, whose sinlessness He | sees, and whom He honors as the Son of God. |
| W2:236.1 | serve. Today I give its service to the Holy Spirit to employ as He | sees fit. I thus direct my mind, which I alone can rule. And thus I |
| W2:WIS.1 | seeks to let illusions take the place of truth. And being mad, it | sees illusions where the truth should be and where it really is. Sin |
| W2:WIB.2 | The body will not stay. Yet this he | sees as double “safety.” For the Son of God's impermanence is “proof” |
| W2:WIRW.3 | and what is there that it would judge against? The world it | sees arises from a mind at peace within itself. No danger lurks in |
| W2:WIRW.3 | from a mind at peace within itself. No danger lurks in anything it | sees, for it is kind and only kindness does it look upon. |
| W2:WILJ.2 | The final judgment on the world contains no condemnation. For it | sees the world as totally forgiven, without sin and wholly |
| W2:313.1 | on a world forgiven. In His sight are all its sins forgiven, for He | sees no sin in anything He looks upon. Now let His true perception |
| W2:WIE.1 | doomed to suffer and to end its life in death. It is the will that | sees the Will of God as enemy and takes a form in which It is denied. |
| W2:WIM.1 | It merely looks on devastation and reminds the mind that what it | sees is false. It undoes error but does not attempt to go beyond |
| W2:347.1 | so I give all judgment to the One You gave to me to judge for me. He | sees what I behold, and yet He knows the truth. He looks on pain, and |
| W2:WAI.4 | Ours are the eyes through which Christ's vision | sees a world redeemed from every thought of sin. Ours are the ears |
| W2:WAI.5 | Son of God, who thought he suffered. Now is he redeemed. And as he | sees the gate of Heaven stand open before him, he will enter in and |
| M:4.8 | the teacher of God is now at the point in his progress at which he | sees in it his whole way out. “Give up what you do not want and keep |
| M:4.9 | for him to judge. He thought he had learned willingness, but now he | sees that he does not know what the willingness is for. And now he |
| M:4.20 | without anxiety. Patience is natural to the teacher of God. All he | sees is certain outcome, at a time perhaps unknown as yet, but not in |
| M:5.2 | Healing is accomplished the instant the sufferer no longer | sees any value in pain. Who would choose suffering unless he thought |
| M:8.5 | to kill than a shout? And do the number of pitchforks the devils he | sees carrying affect their credibility in his perception? His Mind |
| M:10.6 | happily the instant he recognizes its cost. All of the ugliness he | sees about him is its outcome. All of the pain he looks upon is its |
| M:11.2 | judgment would condemn it. God says there is no death; your judgment | sees but death as the inevitable end of life. God's Word assures you |
| M:12.1 | Who is the Son of God. He who was always wholly spirit now no longer | sees Himself as a body or even as in a body. Therefore He is |
| M:12.2 | only the Love of God. God can no longer be feared, for the mind | sees no cause for punishment. God's teachers appear to be many, for |
| M:16.1 | and he keeps in constant contact with the Answer. He is set and | sees the road on which he walks stretch surely and smoothly before |
| M:20.3 | come where anger is, for anger must deny that peace exists. Who | sees anger as justified in any way or any circumstance proclaims that |
| M:22.3 | would be impossible. A body that can order a mind to do as it | sees fit would merely take the place of God and prove salvation is |
| M:23.2 | of God. So has his name become the name of God, for he no longer | sees himself as separate from Him. |
| M:23.5 | But in his eyes your loveliness is so complete and flawless that he | sees in it an image of his Father. You become the symbol of his |
| M:23.5 | Father here on earth. To you he looks for hope, because in you he | sees no limit and no stain to mar your beautiful perfection. In his |
| M:25.4 | are strengths which the Holy Spirit wants and needs. Yet the ego | sees in these same strengths an opportunity to glorify itself. |

| Tx:28.49 | seem to be a “something” you are not. You will make war upon your | Self, which seems to be your enemy, and will attack your brother as a |

| W1:73.2 | reality. Beholding them, you do not know your brothers nor your | Self. |
| W1:73.14 | assert itself, joined with the power of God and united with your | Self. Put the rest of the practice period under Their guidance. Join |
| W1:82.5 | function. I would not forget my function because I would remember my | Self. I cannot fulfill my function by forgetting. And unless I |
| W1:84.2 | I will worship no idols nor raise my own self-concepts to replace my | Self. I am in the likeness of my Creator. Love created me like Itself. |
| W1:84.5 | If I hold grievances I am attacking love and therefore attacking my | Self. My Self thus becomes alien to me. I am determined not to attack |
| W1:84.5 | grievances I am attacking love and therefore attacking my Self. My | Self thus becomes alien to me. I am determined not to attack my Self |
| W1:84.5 | My Self thus becomes alien to me. I am determined not to attack my | Self today, so that I can remember who I am. |
| W1:84.7 | This is no justification for denying my | Self. I will not use this to attack love. Let this not tempt me to |
| W1:92.4 | it is a part. It sees itself. It brings the light in which your | Self appears. In darkness you perceive a self that is not there. |
| W1:92.9 | Strength and light unite in you, and where they meet, your | Self stands ready to embrace you as Its own. Such is the meeting |
| W1:92.9 | we try today to find and rest in, for the peace of God is where your | Self, His Son, is waiting now to meet itself again and be as one. |
| W1:92.10 | twice today to join this meeting. Let yourself be brought unto your | Self. Its strength will be the light in which the gift of sight is |
| W1:92.10 | asking truth to show us how to find the meeting place of self and | Self, where light and strength are one. |
| W1:93.11 | You are what God created or what you made. One | Self is true; the other is not there. Try to experience the unity of |
| W1:93.11 | the other is not there. Try to experience the unity of your One | Self. Try to appreciate its holiness and the love from which it was |
| W1:93.11 | the love from which it was created. Try not to interfere with the | Self which God created as you by hiding its majesty behind the tiny |
| W1:94.5 | Now try to reach the Son of God in you. This is the | Self that never sinned nor made an image to replace reality. This is |
| W1:94.5 | that never sinned nor made an image to replace reality. This is the | Self which never left its home in God to walk the world uncertainly. |
| W1:94.5 | left its home in God to walk the world uncertainly. This is the | Self which knows no fear nor could conceive of loss or suffering or |
| W1:95.3 | sense. We will again direct our exercises towards reaching your One | Self, which is united with its Creator. In patience and in hope we |
| W1:95.11 | for what they are. They are attempts to keep you unaware you are One | Self, united with your Creator, at one with every aspect of creation, |
| W1:95.13 | I am One | Self, united with my Creator, at one with every aspect of creation, |
| W1:95.15 | I am One | Self. |
| W1:95.16 | then attempt to feel the meaning which the words convey. You are One | Self, united and secure in light and joy and peace. You are God's |
| W1:95.16 | united and secure in light and joy and peace. You are God's Son, One | Self with one Creator and one goal—to bring awareness of this |
| W1:95.17 | You are One | Self, complete and healed and whole, with power to lift the veil of |
| W1:95.17 | come through to teach the world the truth about itself. You are One | Self, in perfect harmony with all there is and all that there will |
| W1:95.17 | harmony with all there is and all that there will be. You are One | Self, the holy Son of God, united with your brothers in this Self, |
| W1:95.17 | are One Self, the holy Son of God, united with your brothers in this | Self, united with your Father in His Will. |
| W1:95.18 | Feel this One | Self in you, and let it shine away all your illusions and your |
| W1:95.18 | let it shine away all your illusions and your doubts. This is your | Self, the Son of God Himself, sinless as its Creator, with His |
| W1:95.18 | with His strength within you and His love forever yours. You are One | Self, and it is given you to feel this Self within you and to cast |
| W1:95.18 | forever yours. You are One Self, and it is given you to feel this | Self within you and to cast all your illusions out of the One Mind |
| W1:95.18 | you and to cast all your illusions out of the One Mind which is this | Self, the holy truth in you. |
| W1:95.20 | rustling of the wings of peace. Your own acknowledgment you are One | Self, united with your Father, is a call to all the world to be at |
| W1:95.21 | You are One | Self with me, united with our Creator in this Self. I honor you |
| W1:95.21 | You are One Self with me, united with our Creator in this | Self. I honor you because of what I am, and what He is, Who loves us |
| W1:96.1 | Although you are One | Self, you experience yourself as two—as both good and evil, loving |
| W1:96.3 | and evil have no meeting place. The self you made can never be your | Self, nor can your Self be split in two and still be what it is and |
| W1:96.3 | place. The self you made can never be your Self, nor can your | Self be split in two and still be what it is and must forever be. |
| W1:96.8 | Your | Self retains its thoughts, and they remain within your mind and in |
| W1:96.8 | that it was done. Thus is salvation kept among the thoughts your | Self holds dear and cherishes for you. |
| W1:96.9 | in your mind is guaranteed by Him Who speaks to you from your One | Self. Our hourly five minute practicing will be a search for Him |
| W1:96.9 | be a search for Him within your mind. Salvation comes from this One | Self through Him Who is the bridge between your mind and it. |
| W1:96.10 | Wait patiently, and let Him speak to you about your | Self, and what your mind can do, restored to it and free to serve its |
| W1:96.12 | Salvation comes from my One | Self. Its thoughts are mine to use. |
| W1:96.15 | that your mind has found the function that it sought to lose. Your | Self will welcome it and give it peace. Restored in strength, it will |
| W1:96.15 | things. Confusion done, you are restored, for you have found your | Self. |
| W1:96.16 | Your | Self knows that you cannot fail today. Perhaps your mind remains |
| W1:96.16 | uncertain yet a little while. Be not dismayed by this. The joy your | Self experiences it will save for you, and it will yet be yours in |
| W1:96.16 | spend five minutes of the hour seeking Him Who joins your mind and | Self, you offer Him another treasure to be kept for you. |
| W1:96.17 | time today you tell your frantic mind salvation comes from your One | Self, you lay another treasure in your growing store. And all of it |
| W1:97.1 | Today's idea identifies you with your One | Self. It accepts no split identity, nor tries to weave opposing |
| W1:97.2 | We state again the truth about your | Self, the holy Son of God who rests in you whose mind has been |
| W1:97.11 | that you are Spirit, one with Him and God, your brothers and your | Self. Listen for His assurance every time you speak the words He |
| W1:99.14 | teach you what you need to learn to lay all fear aside and know your | Self as Love Which has no opposite in you. |
| W1:100.11 | the idea for today between your longer practice periods. It is your | Self Who calls to you today. And it is Him you answer every time you |
| W1:106.5 | for who could reach God's Son except his Father calling through your | Self? |
| W1:107.10 | like to you your Father knows that you are both the same. It is your | Self you ask to go with you, and how could He be absent where you are? |
| W1:107.12 | will correct all errors in my mind, and I will rest in Him Who is my | Self. |
| W1:110.8 | this statement firmly in your mind, try to discover in your mind the | Self Who is the holy Son of God Himself. Seek Him within you Who is |
| W1:110.9 | You are as God created you. Today honor your | Self. Let graven images you made to be the Son of God instead of what |
| W1:110.11 | Him. And we will say, that we may be reminded of His Son, our holy | Self, the Christ in each of us: |
| W1:R3.12 | and make it holy, worthy of God's Son, acceptable to God and to your | Self. |
| W1:113.2 | [95] I am One | Self, united with my Creator. Serenity and perfect peace are mine |
| W1:113.2 | my Creator. Serenity and perfect peace are mine because I am One | Self, completely whole, at one with all creation and with God. |
| W1:113.3 | [96] Salvation comes from my One | Self. From my One Self, Whose knowledge still remains Within my mind, |
| W1:113.3 | [96] Salvation comes from my One Self. From my One | Self, Whose knowledge still remains Within my mind, I see God's |
| W1:113.5 | I am One | Self, united with my Creator. |
| W1:113.7 | Salvation comes from my One | Self. |
| W1:119.2 | mistaken when I think I can be hurt in any way. I am God's Son whose | Self rests safely in the Mind of God. |
| W1:121.6 | but from a Teacher other than yourself, who represents the other | Self in you. Through Him you learn how to forgive the self you think |
| W1:121.6 | it disappear. Thus you return your mind as one to Him Who is your | Self and Who can never sin. |
| W1:123.4 | to the dust. We sing the song of thankfulness today in honor of the | Self Which God has willed to be our true Identity in Him. Today we |
| W1:123.8 | that he might rise above the world remembering his Father and his | Self. |
| W1:124.13 | Let me remember I am one with God, at one with all my brothers and my | Self, in everlasting holiness and peace. |
| W1:125.8 | in the single Mind of Father and of Son. In quiet listen to your | Self today, and let Him tell you God has never left His Son, and you |
| W1:125.8 | tell you God has never left His Son, and you have never left your | Self. |
| W1:127.5 | is, and what you are as well. Seek not within the world to find your | Self. Love is not found in darkness and in death. Yet it is perfectly |
| W1:127.11 | we cannot leave a part of us outside our love if we would know our | Self. At least three times an hour think of one who makes the journey |
| W1:127.11 | must learn. And as he comes to mind, give him this message from your | Self: |
| W1:128.3 | add another bar across the door that leads to true awareness of your | Self. |
| W1:132.1 | in chains but your beliefs? And what can save the world except your | Self? Belief is powerful indeed. The thoughts you hold are mighty, |
| W1:132.11 | the lesson for today except another way of saying that to know your | Self is the salvation of the world? To free the world from every kind |
| W1:137.3 | But healing is his own decision to be one again and to accept his | Self with all its parts intact and unassailed. In sickness does his |
| W1:137.3 | Self with all its parts intact and unassailed. In sickness does his | Self appear to be dismembered and without the unity that gives it |
| W1:137.12 | Would you not offer shelter to God's Will? You but invite your | Self to be at home, and can this invitation be refused? Ask the |
| W1:137.15 | may be banished from the mind of God's one Son, Who is my only | Self. |
| W1:151.12 | and everything, His Voice would speak to you of nothing but your | Self and your Creator, Who is one with Him. So will you see the holy |
| W1:152.14 | wait in silence, giving up all self-deceptions as we humbly ask our | Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left will come |
| W1:152.15 | which the day began, concluding it with this same invitation to your | Self. God's Voice will answer, for He speaks for you and for your |
| W1:154.4 | of Who created it and of His lasting union with itself. So is its | Self the one reality in which its will and that of God are joined. |
| W1:155.13 | and your goal secure. You will not fail your brothers nor your | Self. |
| W1:157.3 | more swiftly to this holy place and leaves you for a moment to your | Self. |
| W1:160.1 | stranger to yourself. And thus you are unknown to you. What is your | Self remains an alien to the part of you which thinks that it is real |
| W1:160.6 | he is no stranger now. The miracle will come. For in his home his | Self remains. It asked no stranger in and took no alien thought to be |
| W1:160.7 | Who is the stranger? Is he not the one your | Self calls not? You are unable now to recognize this stranger in your |
| W1:160.7 | your midst, for you have given him your rightful place. Yet is your | Self as certain of Its own as God is of His Son. He cannot be |
| W1:160.10 | Him and thus refusing to accept the gift of sight by which his | Self is clearly recognized, his home remembered, and salvation come. |
| W1:164.2 | to your Father's call to you. Christ answers for you, echoing your | Self, using your voice to give His glad consent, accepting your |
| W1:166.9 | keep His Son in deep oblivion and go the way you chose without your | Self. |
| W1:166.10 | is. It is not God you have imprisoned in your plan to lose your | Self. He does not know about a plan so alien to His Will. There was a |
| W1:167.12 | is needed. For the wakened mind is one that knows its Source, its | Self, its holiness. |
| W1:R5.4 | meaningful, more personal and true, and more descriptive of the holy | Self we share and now prepare to know again: |
| W1:R5.6 | This | Self alone knows love. This Self alone is perfectly consistent in Its |
| W1:R5.6 | This Self alone knows love. This | Self alone is perfectly consistent in Its thoughts, knows Its |
| W1:R5.7 | to us, and teach us, step by step, how to return to the eternal | Self we thought we lost. |
| W1:R5.11 | my eyes, my feet, my hands, through which I save the world. The | Self from Which I call to you is but your own. To Him we go together. |
| W1:181.1 | Rather, they are magnified, becoming blocks to your awareness of the | Self that lies beyond your own mistakes and past his seeming sins as |
| W1:181.10 | for everyone we look upon attests to our remembrance of the holy | Self Which knows no sin and never could conceive of anything without |
| W1:183.5 | Repeat the Name of God and call upon your | Self, Whose Name is His. Repeat His Name and all the tiny, nameless |
| W1:187.10 | is our Source; not distant from one brother who is part of our One | Self Whose innocence has joined us all as one, we stand in |
| W1:190.6 | your mind and choose the joy of God as what you really want. Your | Self is radiant in this holy joy, unchanged, unchanging, and |
| W1:192.1 | It is your Father's holy will that you complete Himself and that your | Self shall be His sacred Son, forever pure as He, of love created and |
| W1:192.1 | love, creating in its name, forever one with God and with your | Self. Yet what can such a function mean within a world of envy, |
| W1:195.8 | has earned the right to love by being loving, even as your | Self. |
| W1:197.7 | And with the end of this belief is fear forever over. Thank your | Self for this, for He is grateful only unto God, and He gives thanks |
| W1:197.8 | of God, for as you were created you contain all things within your | Self. And you are still as God created you. Nor can you dim the light |
| W1:197.9 | receive it. Be you free of all ingratitude to anyone who makes your | Self complete. And from this Self is no one left outside. Give thanks |
| W1:197.9 | ingratitude to anyone who makes your Self complete. And from this | Self is no one left outside. Give thanks for all the countless |
| W1:197.9 | Give thanks for all the countless channels which extend this | Self. All that you do is given unto Him. All that you think can only |
| W1:198.3 | of God Himself. It is a dream in which the Son of God awakens to his | Self and to his Father, knowing They are one. |
| W1:198.8 | and that the holy Son of God can die! The stillness of your | Self remains unmoved, untouched by thoughts like these, and unaware |
| W1:200.1 | the universe and God, my Father, One Creator of the whole that is my | Self, forever one with me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still |
| W1:211.1 | I seek God's glory to behold it in the Son whom He created as my | Self. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W1:217.1 | salvation but myself? And how but through salvation can I find the | Self to Whom my thanks are due? I am not a body. I am free. For I am |
| W2:230.1 | created. And in peace do I remain. It is not given me to change my | Self. How merciful is God my Father, that when He created me He gave |
| W2:237.2 | today. Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your Son and my true | Self as well. Amen. |
| W2:238.1 | He is safe Who still is part of You and yet is mine because He is my | Self. |
| W2:245.1 | would save Your Son as is Your Will, that I may come to recognize my | Self. |
| W2:246.1 | not try to hurt God's Son and think that I can know his Father or my | Self. Let me not fail to recognize myself and still believe that my |
| W2:247.2 | created them and gave them all to me as part of You and my own | Self as well. Today I honor You through them, and thus I hope this |
| W2:247.2 | I honor You through them, and thus I hope this day to recognize my | Self. |
| W2:252.1 | My | Self is holy beyond all the thoughts of holiness of which I now |
| W2:252.1 | from the boundless Love of God Himself. How far beyond this world my | Self must be, and yet how near to me and close to God! |
| W2:253.1 | world to my creations, children of my Will, in Heaven where my holy | Self abides with them and Him Who has created me. |
| W2:253.2 | You are the | Self Whom You created Son, creating like Yourself and one with You. |
| W2:253.2 | Whom You created Son, creating like Yourself and one with You. My | Self, Which rules the universe, is but Your will in perfect union |
| W2:WIB.1 | fence the Son of God imagines he has built to separate parts of his | Self from other parts. It is within this fence, he thinks he lives, |
| W2:WIB.5 | with love, and you are home. Identify with love, and find your | Self. |
| W2:261.2 | to be as You created me and find the Son whom You created as my | Self. |
| W2:266.1 | are You reflected, and in them does Christ look back upon me from my | Self. Let not Your Son forget Your holy Name. Let not Your Son forget |
| W2:266.2 | paradise, calling upon God's name and on our own, acknowledging our | Self in each of us, united in the holy Love of God. How many saviors |
| W2:268.1 | be as You created it. For thus will I be able, too, to recognize my | Self as You created me. In Love was I created, and in Love will I |
| W2:269.2 | indeed. We share one vision as we look upon the face of Him Whose | Self is ours. We are one because of Him Who is the Son of God, of Him |
| W2:WIC.1 | Christ is God's Son as He created Him. He is the | Self we share, uniting us with one another and with God as well. He |
| W2:WIC.2 | Father placed the means for your salvation, yet does He remain the | Self Who, like His Father, knows no sin. |
| W2:WIC.3 | be given unto Christ to fade before His glory and reveal your holy | Self, the Christ, to you at last. |
| W2:WIC.5 | of learning or perception or of time, or anything except the holy | Self, the Christ Whom God created as His Son. |
| W2:276.1 | all is given us. Deny we were created in His Love, and we deny our | Self, to be unsure of who we are, of who our Father is, and for what |
| W2:276.1 | His Word to us in our creation, to remember Him and so recall our | Self. |
| W2:278.1 | be escaped. If I am bound in any way, I do not know my Father or my | Self. And I am lost to all reality. For truth is free, and what is |
| W2:282.1 | living in the joy of life. And this the choice to recognize the | Self Whom God created as the Son He loves and Who remains my one |
| W2:286.2 | end which God Himself has promised us. We trust in Him and in our | Self, Who still is one with Him. |
| W2:287.2 | as You created him. What way but this could I expect to recognize my | Self and be at one with my Identity? |
| W2:303.2 | Father. He has come to save me from the evil self I made. He is the | Self that You have given me. He is but what I really am in truth. He |
| W2:303.2 | am in truth. He is the Son You love above all things. He is my | Self as You created me. It is not Christ that can be crucified. Safe |
| W2:309.2 | Your altar stands serene and undefiled. It is the holy altar to my | Self, and there I find my true Identity. |
| W2:313.1 | have kept completely undefiled upon the altar to Your holy Son, the | Self with which I would identify. |
| W2:319.2 | could You have given me? And what but this could be the will my | Self has shared with You? |
| W2:322.1 | that I receive of Him. And every dream serves only to conceal the | Self which is God's only Son, the likeness of Himself, the Holy One |
| W2:330.1 | freedom and its joy, as is the Will of God united with its own. The | Self which God created cannot sin and therefore cannot suffer. Let us |
| W2:335.2 | me that he was created one with me and like myself. In him I find my | Self, and in Your Son I find the memory of You as well. |
| W2:337.1 | I must learn I need do nothing of myself, for I need but accept my | Self, my sinlessness, created for me, now already mine, to feel God's |
| W2:353.1 | I lose myself in my Identity and recognize that Christ is but my | Self. |
| W2:358.1 | in my awareness always. Let me not forget myself is nothing, but my | Self is all. |
| W2:E.3 | need of them. Henceforth, hear but the Voice for God and for your | Self when you retire from the world, to seek Reality instead. He will |
| W2:E.4 | by speaking daily to you of your Father and your brother and your | Self. He will continue; now you walk with Him as certain as is He of |
| W2:E.5 | there is a choice to make. And He will speak for God and for your | Self, thus making sure that hell will claim you not and that each |

| Tx:19.10 | to overlook his errors, looking past all barriers between your | self and his and seeing them as one. And in that one you see your |
| Tx:19.20 | deceive. Purity is seen as arrogance, and the acceptance of the | self as sinful is perceived as holiness. And it is this doctrine |

| Tx:26.3 | The little that the body fences off becomes the | self, preserved through sacrifice of all the rest. And all the rest |
| Tx:27.24 | to a half. And these two halves appear to represent a split within a | self perceived as two.] |
| Tx:27.25 | Consider how this | self perception must extend, and do not overlook the fact that every |
| Tx:27.25 | that is its purpose, being what it really is. From an idea of | self as two, there comes a necessary view of function split between |
| Tx:28.42 | You share confusion and you are confused, for in the gap no stable | self exists. What is the same seems different because what is the |
| Tx:28.47 | seen outside; the evil, in. And thus is sickness separating off the | self from good and keeping evil in. God is the alternate to dreams of |
| Tx:28.57 | rest of what is really yours. You hate it, yet you think it is your | self and that without it would your self be lost. This is the secret |

| Tx:29.17 | that part of Him belongs to Him no longer. He must sacrifice your | self, and in His sacrifice are you made more, and He is lessened by |

| Tx:31.44 | A concept of the | self is made by you. It bears no likeness to yourself at all. It is |
| Tx:31.44 | to take the place of your reality as Son of God. The concept of the | self the world would teach is not the thing that it appears to be. |
| Tx:31.46 | The face of innocence the concept of the | self so proudly wears can tolerate attack in self-defense, for is it |
| Tx:31.47 | the face of innocence there is a lesson that the concept of the | self was made to teach. It is a lesson in a terrible displacement and |

| Tx:31.50 | A concept of the | self is meaningless, for no one here can see what it is for and |
| Tx:31.50 | must the Holy Spirit find a way to help you see this concept of the | self must be undone if any peace of mind is to be given you. Nor can |
| Tx:31.50 | be asked to make exchange of what you now believe for total loss of | self, and greater terror would arise in you. |

| Tx:31.54 | you chose to have your brother be. This shifts the concept of the | self from what is wholly passive and at least makes way for active |
| Tx:31.55 | question. Something must have gone before these concepts of the | self. And something must have done the learning which gave rise to |
| Tx:31.56 | The concept of the | self has always been the great preoccupation of the world. And |
| Tx:31.56 | how it was made and what it is. And vaguely does the concept of the | self appear to answer what it does not know. |

| Tx:31.57 | the world, and you behold it as you see yourself. The concept of the | self embraces all you look upon, and nothing is outside of this |
| Tx:31.58 | You will make many concepts of the | self as learning goes along. Each one will show the changes in your |

| W1:134.9 | not allow your mind to dwell on what you think he did, for this is | self-deception. Ask instead, “Should I accuse myself of doing this?” |
| W1:136.2 | is not an accident. Like all defenses, it is an insane device for | self-deception. And like all the rest, its purpose is to hide |
| W1:139.2 | things as certain as itself. Uncertainty about what you must be is | self-deception on a scale so vast its magnitude can hardly be |
| W1:166.7 | down lest you might catch a glimpse of truth and be released from | self-deception and set free. |

| W2:WIS.2 | chosen by the aim the mind has taken as replacement for the goal of | self-deception. Truth can be its aim as well as lies. The senses then |
| M:4.12 | can even conceive of conflict. Conflict is the inevitable result of | self-deception, and self-deception is dishonesty. There is no |
| M:4.12 | conflict. Conflict is the inevitable result of self-deception, and | self-deception is dishonesty. There is no challenge to a teacher of |

self-deceptions (7) | ||
| W1:135.15 | of truth. This is not difficult to realize in some forms which these | self-deceptions take, for the denial of reality is very obvious. Yet |
| W1:R4.5 | is to show you something else and hold correction off through | self-deceptions made to take its place. |
| W1:R4.6 | And yet your mind holds only what you think with God. Your | self-deceptions cannot take the place of truth. No more than can a |
| W1:152.8 | ever was, eternally as it is now. And it will take the place of | self-deceptions made but to usurp the altar to the Father and the Son. |
| W1:152.14 | Then will we wait in silence, giving up all | self-deceptions as we humbly ask our Self that He reveal Himself to |
| W1:152.15 | the peace of God for all your frantic thoughts, the truth of God for | self-deceptions, and God's Son for your illusions of yourself. |

selfishness (2) | ||
| Tx:7.91 | your gifts to the Sonship, or you withhold yourself from God. | Selfishness is of the ego, but self-fullness is of the Soul, because |

| Tx:11.24 | I once asked if you were willing to | sell all you have and give to the poor and follow me. This is what I |

| Tx:11.66 | you see me, it will be because you have invited Him. For He will | send you His witnesses if you will but look upon them. Remember |
| Tx:19.43 | will fall away so quietly beneath the wings of peace! For peace will | send its messengers from you to all the world. And barriers will fall |
| Tx:19.49 | that love looks on itself. And each has messengers which they | send forth and which return to them with messages written in the |
| Tx:19.51 | world is seen. And this depends on which emotion was called on to | send its messengers to look upon it and return with word of what they |
| Tx:19.52 | Send not these savage messengers into the world to feast upon it and | |
| Tx:19.53 | The Holy Spirit has given you love's messengers to | send instead of those you trained through fear. They are as eager to |
| Tx:19.53 | eager to return to you what they hold dear as are the others. If you | send them forth, they will see only the blameless and the beautiful, |
| Tx:19.54 | If you | send forth only the messengers the Holy Spirit gives you, wanting no |
| Tx:19.54 | it and see it still. The Holy Spirit has given you His messengers to | send to each other and return to each with what love sees. They have |
| Tx:19.66 | is offered you in gratitude for giving peace its home in Heaven. | Send forth to all the world the joyous message of the end of guilt, |
| Tx:19.73 | The ego hides it, for it would keep you unaware of it. Who would | send messages of hatred and attack if he but understood he sends them |
| Tx:19.74 | that this is not so, but as the “enemy” of peace, it urges you to | send out all your messages of hate and free yourself. And to convince |
| Tx:22.6 | yours must make no sense to you. To whom would vision such as this | send back its messages? Surely not you, whose sight is wholly |
| Tx:27.4 | you but represents your brother's guilt—the witness which you | send lest he forget the injuries he gave from which you swear he |
| Tx:27.11 | scent of death. Let it have healing as its purpose. Then will it | send forth the message it received and by its health and loveliness |
| Tx:28.56 | you hate and fear and loathe and want, the body does not know. You | send it forth to seek for separation and to be a separate thing. And |
| W1:132.19 | far across the world as well as to the ones you see near by as you | send out these thoughts to bless the world. But you will sense your |

| Tx:19.76 | His messages unto the Son. Like the ego, the Holy Spirit is both the | sender and the receiver. For what is sent through Him returns to Him, |

| Tx:4.89 | and can now complete it through other men. My chosen receiving and | sending channels cannot fail because I will lend them my strength as |

| Tx:11.61 | from your acceptance of it for yourself to everyone the Holy Spirit | sends you for your blessing. In every Child of God His blessing lies, |
| Tx:19.52 | with the pain of fear and would avert the punishment of him who | sends them forth by offering him what they hold dear. |
| Tx:19.73 | that you want. Like any communication medium, the body receives and | sends the messages that it is given. It has no feeling for them. All |
| Tx:19.73 | Who would send messages of hatred and attack if he but understood he | sends them to himself? Who would accuse, make guilty, and condemn |
| Tx:27.57 | whatever you hold dear. And for each witness to the body's death He | sends a witness to your life in Him Who knows no death. Each miracle |
| Tx:27.59 | And they attest to different sufferings. Yet to the One Who | sends forth miracles to bless the world, a tiny stab of pain, a |
| W1:100.2 | must be complete to let His plan be understood by those to whom He | sends you. They will see their function in your shining face and hear |

| Tx:1.3 | of love. The real miracle is the love that inspires them. In this | sense, everything that comes from love is a miracle. |
| Tx:1.9 | all expressions of love, which are always miraculous in the true | sense, the exchange reverses the physical laws. They bring more love |
| Tx:1.17 | of the body. They are sudden shifts into invisibility, away from a | sense of lower-order reality. That is why they heal. |
| Tx:1.37 | between God and His Souls, involving an extremely personal | sense of closeness to creation which man tries to find in physical |
| Tx:1.40 | Miracles are thus a means, and revelation is an end. [In this | sense, they work together.] Miracles do not depend on revelation; |
| Tx:1.67 | of miracles is their strength in releasing man from his misplaced | sense of isolation, deprivation, and lack. |
| Tx:1.84 | interval which is not under the usual laws of time. Only in this | sense is it timeless. By collapsing time, it literally saves time. |
| Tx:1.91 | depends on his perception of what he is—that is, what he lacks. A | sense of separation from God is the only lack he really needs to |
| Tx:1.91 | from God is the only lack he really needs to correct. This | sense of separation would never have occurred if he had not distorted |
| Tx:1.96 | Christ-controlled miracles are selective only in the | sense that they are directed towards those who can use them for |
| Tx:2.41 | to keep retracing his steps without advancing to his return. In this | sense the Atonement saves time but, like the miracle which serves it, |
| Tx:2.50 | Children of God are entitled to perfect comfort, which comes from a | sense of perfect trust. Until they achieve this, they waste |
| Tx:2.53 | “not-right-mindedness,” is the result of level confusion in the | sense that it always entails the belief that what is amiss in one |
| Tx:2.59 | the level of communication, not to impose regression in the improper | sense upon it. |
| Tx:2.62 | cannot misperceive them as their own creations. As long as their | sense of vulnerability persists, they should be preserved from even |
| Tx:2.63 | Miracle-mindedness merely means right-mindedness in the | sense that we are now using it. The right-minded neither exalt nor |
| Tx:2.70 | of as yet. Charity is essential to right-mindedness in the limited | sense in which right-mindedness can now be attained. Charity is a way |
| Tx:2.79 | in which you are doing what you do not will. This arouses a | sense of coercion, which usually produces rage. The rage then invades |
| Tx:2.79 | rage. The rage then invades the mind and projection in the wrong | sense is likely to follow. Depression or anxiety is virtually certain. |
| Tx:2.91 | right-minded can escape. Death wishes do not kill in the physical | sense, but they do kill spiritual awareness. All destructive thinking |
| Tx:2.98 | rests entirely on the mastery of love. In the interim, the | sense of conflict is inevitable since man has placed himself in a |
| Tx:2.99 | darkness is abolished. What man believes is true for him. In this | sense the separation has occurred, and to deny this is merely to |
| Tx:2.102 | have returned. Only then can the meaning of wholeness, in the true | sense, be fully understood. |
| Tx:2.109 | the true. This is a process of division only in the constructive | sense and reflects the true meaning of the Apocalypse. Man will |

| Tx:3.19 | awakens from its sleep and [the Soul] remembers its Creator. All | sense of separation disappears, and level confusion vanishes. The Son |
| Tx:3.24 | like them. The lamb taketh away the sins of the world only in the | sense that the state of innocence, or grace, is one in which the |
| Tx:3.40 | himself. He became a perceiver rather than a creator in the true | sense. Consciousness is correctly identified as the domain of the |
| Tx:3.47 | that it is not there. The truth will always overcome error in this | sense. This is not an active process of destruction at all. We have |
| Tx:3.52 | been greatly confused. When you make something, you make it out of a | sense of lack or need. Anything that is made is made for a specific |
| Tx:3.53 | Nevertheless, they are perfectly stable as God created them. In this | sense, when their behavior is unstable they are disagreeing with |
| Tx:3.56 | everything. Once forgiveness has been accepted, prayer in the usual | sense becomes utterly meaningless. Essentially, a prayer for |
| Tx:3.61 | Last Judgment there will be no more. This is symbolic only in the | sense that everyone is much better off without judgment. When the |
| Tx:3.68 | Despite the apparent contradiction in this position, it is in one | sense more tenable than the view that they created themselves. At |
| Tx:3.74 | This makes absolutely no | sense. The whole picture is one in which man acts in a way he himself |
| Tx:3.76 | into the self the ability for self-creating. This is the only | sense in which God and His Souls are not co-creators. The belief that |
| Tx:4.1 | egocentric is to be dispirited, but to be Self-centered in the right | sense is to be inspired, or in the Soul. The truly inspired are |
| Tx:4.29 | You are not prepared, and in this | sense you are babies. You have no sense of real self-preservation and |
| Tx:4.29 | You are not prepared, and in this sense you are babies. You have no | sense of real self-preservation and are very likely to decide that |
| Tx:4.30 | Only those who have a real and lasting | sense of abundance can be truly charitable. This is quite obvious |
| Tx:4.48 | sort of reward for maintaining this belief. All it can offer is a | sense of temporary existence, which begins with its own beginning and |
| Tx:4.48 | you this life is your existence because it is its own. Against this | sense of temporary existence the Soul offers you the knowledge of |
| Tx:4.59 | that this need not be. Depression always arises ultimately from a | sense of being deprived of something you want and do not have. Know |
| Tx:4.70 | which judges only in terms of threat or non-threat to itself. In one | sense the ego's fear of the idea of God is at least logical, since |
| Tx:4.70 | ego. Fear of dissolution from the Higher Source, then, makes some | sense in ego-terms. But fear of the body, with which the ego |
| Tx:4.76 | this because it would immediately become apparent that there was no | sense in his efforts even if he succeeded. If gold became more |
| Tx:4.98 | extent you permit this state to be curtailed, you are limiting your | sense of your own reality, which becomes total only by your |
| Tx:5.19 | only to listen to it. The Holy Spirit is in you in a very literal | sense. His is the Voice that calls you back to where you were before |
| Tx:5.22 | been lost, because knowledge is sure. God is not in you in a literal | sense; you are part of Him. When you chose to leave Him, He gave you |
| Tx:5.22 | which you must make. In the holy state, the will is free in the | sense that its creative power is unlimited, but choice itself is |
| Tx:5.72 | like the past. This is the ego's continuity and gives it a false | sense of security through the belief that you cannot escape from it. |
| Tx:5.94 | therefore be undone. It cannot be undone by repentance in the usual | sense because this implies guilt. If you allow yourself to feel |
| Tx:6.19 | speak of the crucifixion entirely without anger, because their own | sense of guilt had made them angry. |
| Tx:6.93 | needs protection since your being cannot be assailed. Yet a real | sense of being cannot be yours while you are doubtful of what you |
| Tx:7.7 | “first” as applied to Him is not a time concept. He is first in the | sense that He is the first in the Holy Trinity itself. He is the |
| Tx:7.31 | a science. It is an art, because it depends on inspiration in the | sense that we have already used the term. Inspiration is the opposite |
| Tx:7.38 | else. There is nothing else. God is all in all in a very literal | sense. All being is in Him who is all Being. You are therefore in Him |
| Tx:7.38 | in Him since your being is His. Healing is a way of forgetting the | sense of danger the ego has induced in you by not recognizing its |
| Tx:7.97 | in it, you are describing what you do not know. That is true in a | sense, but no more true than your failure to acknowledge the whole |
| Tx:7.109 | his heart untouched by fear and allow him to give always without any | sense of loss? Does it teach him that this giving is his joy and that |
| Tx:8.9 | Does the total disregard of anything it teaches make anything but | sense? Is this the teacher to whom a Son of God should turn to find |
| Tx:8.27 | the problem of this world. Dispelling it is salvation, and in this | sense I am the salvation of the world. |
| Tx:8.60 | a learner as to be placed in a curriculum which he cannot learn. His | sense of adequacy suffers, and he must become depressed. Being faced |
| Tx:8.61 | Spirit, where devotion to Him replaces devotion to the ego. In this | sense, the body does become a temple to God, because His Voice abides |
| Tx:8.75 | sight of the function of everything. A sick body does not make any | sense. It could not make sense, because sickness is not what the body |
| Tx:8.75 | everything. A sick body does not make any sense. It could not make | sense, because sickness is not what the body is for. Sickness is |
| Tx:8.76 | to collect data which are true. There is no point in trying to make | sense out of meaningless data. Any way you handle them results in |
| Tx:8.95 | A message cannot be said to be communicated unless it makes | sense. How sensible can your messages be when you ask for what you do |
| Tx:9.1 | of the kind of “sense” they stand for. They understand this kind of | sense because it is sensible to them. To the Holy Spirit, it makes no |
| Tx:9.1 | because it is sensible to them. To the Holy Spirit, it makes no | sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and right and good to point out |
| Tx:9.1 | and good to point out errors and “correct” them. This makes perfect | sense to the ego, which is totally unaware of what errors are and |
| Tx:9.2 | a brother, you are telling him that he is wrong. He may be making no | sense at the time, and it is certain that if he is speaking from the |
| Tx:9.2 | is certain that if he is speaking from the ego, he will be making no | sense. But your task is still to tell him he is right. You do not |
| Tx:9.3 | at all between the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego makes no | sense, and the Holy Spirit does not attempt to understand anything |
| Tx:9.4 | do not hear Him, you are listening to your ego and making as little | sense as the brother whose errors you perceive. This cannot be |
| Tx:9.12 | though not of the right teacher. The ego's plan, of course, makes no | sense and will not work. By following it, you will merely place |
| Tx:9.13 | tried to do this in my name, forgetting that my words make perfect | sense because they come from God. They are as sensible now as they |
| Tx:9.17 | as the First was created. The Second Coming is merely the return of | sense. Can this possibly be fearful? |
| Tx:9.42 | as inadequate. Would you look to the ego to help you escape from a | sense of inadequacy it has produced and must maintain for its |
| Tx:9.50 | different kinds of threat to its existence. Its own profound | sense of vulnerability renders it incapable of judgment except in |
| Tx:9.93 | realize that to deny God is to deny their own identity, and in this | sense the wages of sin is death. The sense is very literal; denial of |
| Tx:9.93 | their own identity, and in this sense the wages of sin is death. The | sense is very literal; denial of life perceives its opposite, as all |
| Tx:11.3 | There is but one interpretation of all motivation that makes any | sense. And because it is the Holy Spirit's judgment, it requires no |
| Tx:11.6 | love into your awareness if you perceive them truly. And all your | sense of strain comes from your attempts not to do just this. |
| Tx:11.11 | Fear is a symptom of your deep | sense of loss. If when you perceive it in others you learn to supply |
| Tx:11.39 | that the ego must set you on a journey which cannot but lead to a | sense of futility and depression? To seek and not to find is hardly |
| Tx:11.44 | not done anything. Once you realize this, there is no longer any | sense in attack, for it manifestly does not work and cannot protect |
| Tx:11.46 | need special teaching. You have learning handicaps in a very literal | sense. |
| Tx:11.49 | what can you expect but confusion? The curriculum does not make | sense. |
| Tx:11.97 | is always associated with expiation, and only guilt could induce a | sense of need for expiation. Accepting the guiltlessness of the Son |
| Tx:13.37 | There is no variation. There is no interruption. There is a | sense of peace so deep that no dream in this world has ever brought |
| Tx:13.54 | learning goal depends means absolutely nothing. It does make | sense to you. |
| Tx:14.19 | that only one means anything, and the other is wholly without | sense of any kind. |
| Tx:14.41 | The graciousness of God will take them gently in and cover all their | sense of pain and loss with the immortal assurance of their Father's |
| Tx:14.50 | The little sanity which still remains is held together by a | sense of order which you establish. Yet the very fact that you can do |
| Tx:14.53 | a lot of words which sound impressive but which lack any consistent | sense when they are put together. |
| Tx:15.10 | was born again, you will go forth in time without fear and with no | sense of change with time. |
| Tx:15.28 | into believing that littleness can be blown up by them into a | sense of magnitude that can content them. Neither give littleness, |
| Tx:15.81 | not fail you, for He comes from One Who cannot fail. Accept your | sense of failure as nothing more than a mistake in who you are. For |
| Tx:15.105 | others. For who could thrust Heaven and its Creator aside without a | sense of sacrifice and loss? And who can suffer sacrifice and loss |
| Tx:16.5 | but be sure that you desert not him. Humility is strength in this | sense only—to recognize and accept the fact that you do not know is |
| Tx:16.19 | successful. Is it not time you brought these facts together and made | sense of them? |
| Tx:16.39 | into your mind by judging it to be attainable removes your own | sense of completion and thus denies the wholeness of your Father. |
| Tx:16.64 | In the transition there is a period of confusion in which a | sense of actual disorientation seems to occur. But fear it not, for |
| Tx:17.2 | you have accomplished what you wish. This strange position in a | sense acknowledges your power. Yet by distorting it and devoting it |
| Tx:17.29 | minds so completely that you will not hear the call of truth. In a | sense the special relationship was the ego's answer to the creation |
| Tx:17.45 | goal was all that seemed to give it meaning. Now it seems to make no | sense. Many relationships have been broken off at this point, and the |
| Tx:17.50 | your relationship, for it will seem at times to have no purpose. A | sense of aimlessness will come to haunt you and to remind you of all |
| Tx:17.59 | set at the outset, the situation just seems to happen and makes no | sense until it has already happened. Then you look back at it and try |
| Tx:18.58 | whom He encompasses? Everyone has experienced what he would call a | sense of being transported beyond himself. This feeling of liberation |
| Tx:18.58 | of freedom sometimes experienced in special relationships. It is a | sense of actual escape from limitations. |
| Tx:18.61 | contain you. You go where you would be, gaining, not losing, a | sense of self. In these instants of release from physical |
| Tx:19.99 | is still meaningless, and even when it is over, it seems to make no | sense. How can you know that it is over unless you realize its |
| Tx:21.50 | as tiny, vulnerable, and afraid. You will experience depression, a | sense of worthlessness, and feelings of impermanence and unreality. |
| Tx:22.4 | And now the sameness which you saw extends and finally removes all | sense of differences so that the sameness that lies beneath them all |
| Tx:22.5 | behalf. And where, you wonder, does your strange uneasiness, your | sense of being disconnected, and your haunting fear of lack of |
| Tx:22.6 | that the world you see through eyes which are not yours must make no | sense to you. To whom would vision such as this send back its |
| Tx:22.29 | for here is the beginning of a vision that has meaning. Vision is | sense, quite literally. If it is not the body's sight, it must be |
| Tx:22.46 | goes against the truth, flies in the face of reason, and makes no | sense. Can this be justified? What can this be except an invitation |
| Tx:23.43 | be different, and yet the same remain intact as one. Does this make | sense? Can it be understood? |
| Tx:23.54 | can win. Can it be anything that offers you a perfect calmness and a | sense of love so deep and quiet that no touch of doubt can ever mar |
| Tx:24.36 | that harmful purpose hurts the mind as one. Nothing could make less | sense to specialness. Nothing could make more sense to miracles. For |
| Tx:24.36 | could make less sense to specialness. Nothing could make more | sense to miracles. For miracles are merely change of purpose from |
| Tx:24.37 | This shift in purpose does “endanger” specialness, but only in the | sense that all illusions are “threatened” by the truth. They will not |
| Tx:24.49 | He is your savior from the dreams of fear. He is the healing of your | sense of sacrifice and fear that what you have will scatter with the |
| Tx:24.61 | do through Christ it does not know. To Him this judgment makes no | sense at all, for only what His Father wills is possible, and there |
| Tx:25.14 | up the hopeless and unrewarding task you set yourself. Can it make | sense to hold the fixed belief that there is reason to uphold pursuit |
| Tx:25.37 | a meaning from the other. Each depends upon the other for whatever | sense it seems to have. And no one could believe in one unless the |
| Tx:25.52 | is this world a place of madness. Not one Thought of His makes any | sense at all within this world. And nothing that the world believes |
| Tx:25.52 | believes as true has any meaning in His Mind at all. What makes no | sense and has no meaning is insanity. And what is madness cannot be |
| Tx:25.52 | all beliefs the world gives any meaning to are false and make no | sense at all. This is the choice you make. Do not attempt to see it |
| Tx:25.56 | is their choices are not free and made with reason in the light of | sense. |
| Tx:26.5 | merely ask that they might see a purpose in the world that gives it | sense and makes it meaningful. Without your special function has this |
| Tx:26.51 | some are more true than others, although this clearly makes no | sense at all. All that a hierarchy of illusions can show is |
| Tx:26.58 | find a little treasure of his own. And this he cannot do without a | sense of isolation, loss, and loneliness. This is the treasure he has |

| Tx:31.73 | forever unaccomplished and undone. And thus it dooms you to a bitter | sense of deep depression and futility. Yet it need not be fixed |

| W1:11.2 | repeat it to yourself, being sure to do so without haste and with no | sense of urgency or effort. |
| W1:12.9 | this too long. Terminate the exercises whenever you experience a | sense of strain. |

| W1:26.6 | The concern may take the form of depression, worry, anger, a | sense of imposition, fear, foreboding, or preoccupation. Any problem |
| W1:29.7 | to yourself. At least once or twice you should experience a | sense of restfulness as you do this. |

| W1:34.7 | minutes and devote them to repeating the idea until you feel some | sense of relief. It will help you if you tell yourself specifically: |
| W1:38.4 | idea for today, close your eyes, and then search your mind for any | sense of loss or unhappiness of any kind as you see it. Try to make |
| W1:38.8 | The purpose of today's exercises is to begin to instill in you a | sense that you have dominion over all things because of what you are. |
| W1:41.1 | Today's idea will eventually overcome completely the | sense of loneliness and abandonment which all the separated ones |
| W1:41.1 | inevitable consequence of separation. So are anxiety, worry, a deep | sense of helplessness, misery, suffering, and intense fear of loss. |
| W1:41.5 | Then make no effort to think of anything. Try instead to get a | sense of turning inward, past all the idle thoughts of the world. Try |
| W1:44.4 | but only if you find the time merely slipping by with little or no | sense of strain. The form of exercise we will use today is the most |
| W1:44.8 | no particular form of approach is advocated, what is needful is a | sense of the importance of what you are doing, its inestimable value |
| W1:44.10 | If you are doing the exercises correctly, you should experience some | sense of relaxation and even a feeling that you are approaching if |
| W1:47.6 | Now try to slip past all concerns related to your own | sense of inadequacy. It is obvious that any situation that causes you |
| W1:47.8 | safety. You will recognize that you have reached it if you feel a | sense of deep peace, however briefly. Let go all the trivial things |
| W1:51.4 | understand what I see because it is not understandable. There is no | sense in trying to understand it. But there is every reason to let it |

| W1:65.10 | You need not use these exact words, but try to get a | sense of being willing to have your illusions of purpose be replaced |
| W1:69.7 | If you are doing the exercises properly, you will begin to feel a | sense of being lifted up and carried ahead. Your little effort and |
| W1:71.6 | in all ways. The result can only bring confusion, misery, and a deep | sense of failure and despair. |
| W1:73.1 | and therefore have no power at all. Its wishes are not idle in the | sense that they can make a world of illusions in which your belief |
| W1:74.11 | is easily detected. If you are succeeding, you will feel a deep | sense of joy and an increased alertness rather than a feeling of |
| W1:76.1 | things that have no meaning, you bind yourself to laws that make no | sense. Thus do you seek to prove salvation is where it is not. |
| W1:91.4 | within your easy reach, you will not doubt. The miracles your | sense of weakness hides will leap into awareness as you feel the |
| W1:91.12 | particularly on the experience of strength. Remember that all | sense of weakness is associated with the belief that you are a body, |
| W1:95.3 | to be aware of only what can hear and see and what makes perfect | sense. We will again direct our exercises towards reaching your One |
| W1:96.1 | two—as both good and evil, loving and hating, mind and body. This | sense of being split into opposites induces feelings of acute and |
| W1:102.1 | enough to let you question it and to suspect it really makes no | sense. It has not gone as yet but lacks the roots that once secured |

| W1:132.19 | by as you send out these thoughts to bless the world. But you will | sense your own release, although you may not fully understand as yet |
| W1:134.18 | practicing thus far in willingness and honesty, you will begin to | sense a lifting up, a lightening of weight across your chest, a deep |
| W1:135.2 | from what is happening because it must contain what threatens you. A | sense of threat is an acknowledgment of an inherent weakness, a |
| W1:135.3 | ethics and its leaders and its gods, all serve but to preserve its | sense of threat. For no one walks the world in armature but must have |
| W1:136.19 | not feel at all. If you have been successful, there will be no | sense of feeling ill or feeling well, of pain or pleasure. No |
| W1:138.3 | for nothing in return. And time goes by without results. There is no | sense of gain, for nothing is accomplished; nothing learned. |
| W1:153.4 | of sanity seems but to be an idle dream, beyond the possible. The | sense of threat the world encourages is so much deeper and so far |

| W1:155.4 | while still believing its reality, and they have suffered from a | sense of loss and have not been released accordingly. Others have |
| W1:155.4 | have chosen nothing but the world, and they have suffered from a | sense of loss still deeper, which they did not understand. |

| W1:164.4 | ancient peace you carry in your heart and have not lost. There is a | sense of holiness in you the thought of sin has never touched. All |
| W1:I2.1 | as yet. But you are asked to practice now in order to attain the | sense of peace such unified commitment will bestow, if only |
| W1:I2.2 | to lift these blocks, however briefly. Words alone cannot convey the | sense of liberation which their lifting brings. But the experience of |
| W1:184.4 | of little things and looks upon them. And a lack of space, a | sense of unity or vision which sees differently become the threats |
| W1:187.5 | for they cannot be lost. There is no giver and receiver in the | sense the world conceives of them. There is a giver who retains, |

| Tx:1.34 | pass away” simply means that they will not continue to exist as | separate states. My word, which is the resurrection and the light, |
| Tx:1.56 | and the creations of man. Among the creations of man, it can also | separate the true from the false by Its ability to perceive totally |
| Tx:1.79 | statements in the Bible. It does not mean that I am in any way | separate or different from you except in time, which does not really |
| Tx:1.80 | the statement, “I and my Father are one,” but there are still | separate parts in the statement in recognition that the Father is |
| Tx:2.74 | What you do comes from what you think. You cannot | separate yourself from the truth by “giving” autonomy to behavior. |
| Tx:3.45 | own levels and the ability to perceive, but it could not entirely | separate itself from the Soul because it is from the Soul that it |
| Tx:3.58 | because partial knowledge is impossible. It is all one and has no | separate parts. You who are really one with it need but know |
| Tx:3.59 | other is necessary, because minds have willed to see themselves as | separate. Each Soul knows God completely. That is the miraculous |
| Tx:3.67 | Authorship, but men preferred to be anonymous when they chose to | separate themselves from their Author. The word “authority” has been |
| Tx:4.47 | repressed your own Guide and therefore need guidance. My role is to | separate the true from the false in your unconscious so it can break |
| Tx:4.49 | have made. You project onto your own idea of yourself the will to | separate, which conflicts with the love you feel for what you made |
| Tx:4.84 | We have spoken of the ego as if it were a | separate thing acting on its own. This was necessary to persuade you |
| Tx:4.88 | against all truly natural impulses, not because the ego is a | separate thing, but because you want to believe that you are. The ego |
| Tx:4.94 | specific. It is the part that believes your existence means you are | separate. |
| Tx:4.95 | Everything the ego perceives is a | separate whole, without the relationships that imply being. The ego |
| Tx:5.56 | Ideas do not leave the mind which thought them to have a | separate being, nor do separate thoughts conflict with one another in |
| Tx:5.56 | leave the mind which thought them to have a separate being, nor do | separate thoughts conflict with one another in space, because they do |
| Tx:5.90 | Do you really believe that you can devise a thought system which can | separate you from His? Do you really believe that you can plan for |
| Tx:5.92 | defense of its own existence. It reflects both the ego's need to | separate and your willingness to side with its separateness. This |
| Tx:6.46 | that you are without it. This enables the ego to regard itself as | separate and outside its maker, thus speaking for the part of your |
| Tx:6.46 | maker, thus speaking for the part of your mind that believes you are | separate and outside the Mind of God. The ego, then, raised the first |
| Tx:6.63 | only the mind is real since only the mind can be shared. The body is | separate and therefore cannot be part of you. To be of one mind is |
| Tx:7.13 | error in that it refers to something that exists among different or | separate people. When we spoke before of the extremely personal |
| Tx:7.13 | the revelation in terms of sharing. A person conceives of himself as | separate largely because he perceives of himself as bounded by a |
| Tx:7.32 | be misunderstood as magic and will be whenever it is undertaken as | separate from what already is and perceived as a means for |
| Tx:7.35 | must be translated into a way of remembering and not perceived as a | separate ability which opposes an opposite. That is the way in which |
| Tx:7.36 | in any way or to any extent. The ego always seeks to divide and | separate. The Holy Spirit always seeks to unify and heal. As you heal |
| Tx:7.46 | with Himself, and you cannot be out of accord with Him. You cannot | separate your self from your Creator, Who created you by sharing His |
| Tx:7.65 | you cannot know the Creator, since God and His creation are not | separate. The Oneness of the Creator and the creation is your |
| Tx:7.79 | believes. Projection always sees your will in others. If you will to | separate yourself from God, that is what you will think others are |
| Tx:8.31 | will is the mechanism of decision. It is the power by which you | separate or join and experience pain or joy accordingly. My will |
| Tx:8.36 | wills fuse into something whose power is far beyond the power of its | separate parts. By not being separate, the Will of God is established |
| Tx:8.36 | power is far beyond the power of its separate parts. By not being | separate, the Will of God is established in ours and as ours. This |
| Tx:8.38 | God's Oneness and ours are not | separate, because His Oneness encompasses ours. To join with me is to |
| Tx:8.47 | of God. His Will created you to create. Your will was not created | separate from His, and so it wills as He wills. |
| Tx:8.63 | induce illness by fostering separation. Perceiving the body as a | separate entity cannot but foster illness because it is not true. A |
| Tx:8.64 | To communicate is to join and to attack is to | separate. How can you do both simultaneously with the same thing and |
| Tx:8.70 | perception. In perception the whole is built up of parts, which can | separate and reassemble in different constellations. Knowledge never |
| Tx:8.85 | The ego, which always weakens the will, wants to | separate the body from the mind. This is an attempt to destroy it, |
| Tx:8.87 | to be perfect, to heal all errors, to take no thought of the body as | separate, and to accomplish all things in my name. This is not my |
| Tx:9.7 | brother. His errors are forgiven with yours. Atonement is no more | separate than love. Atonement cannot be separate, because it comes |
| Tx:9.7 | yours. Atonement is no more separate than love. Atonement cannot be | separate, because it comes from love. Any attempt you make to correct |
| Tx:9.76 | Your minds are not | separate, and God has only one channel for healing, because He has |
| Tx:9.76 | of this is to heal them, because it is the awareness that no one is | separate, and so no one is sick. To believe that a Son of God can be |
| Tx:10.30 | If you will bless him in time, you will be in eternity. Time cannot | separate you from God if you use it on behalf of the eternal. |
| Tx:10.43 | ego autonomy. From the beginning, then, its purpose is to be | separate, sufficient unto itself, and independent of any power except |
| Tx:10.49 | Your recognition that whatever seems to | separate you from God is only fear, regardless of the form it takes |
| Tx:10.53 | of wholeness comes only through acceptance, for to analyze means to | separate out. The attempt to understand totality by breaking it up is |
| Tx:10.70 | They are still perceptions because he still believes that he is | separate. Yet they are eternal because they are loving. And being |
| Tx:10.84 | is his healing and yours. Christ is the Son of God, who is in no way | separate from His Father, whose every thought is as loving as the |
| Tx:11.32 | mind, and which is the symbol of death. For if you could really | separate yourselves from the Mind of God, you would die, and the |
| Tx:11.60 | What is one cannot be perceived as | separate, and the denial of the separation is the reinstatement of |
| Tx:11.85 | herein lies the split. For the mind that judges perceives itself as | separate from the mind being judged, believing that by punishing |
| Tx:12.34 | whole. For these figures have no witnesses, being perceived in one | separate mind only. |
| Tx:12.36 | not wish to die, yet they will not let condemnation go. And so they | separate into their private worlds, where everything is disordered |
| Tx:12.50 | unbroken, for they are not separated by the past. Only the past can | separate, and it is nowhere. |
| Tx:12.59 | no buildings, and there are no streets where people walk alone and | separate. There are no stores where people buy an endless list of |
| Tx:13.2 | about knowledge. Every aspect is whole, and therefore no aspect is | separate. You are an aspect of knowledge, being in the Mind of God, |
| Tx:13.4 | the Father and the Son, the Holy Spirit has no function. He is not | separate from either, being in the mind of both and knowing that mind |
| Tx:13.14 | you cherish, for it is the means by which the Holy Spirit can | separate the false and the true, which you have accepted into your |
| Tx:13.44 | has placed within him the glad call to waken and be glad? He cannot | separate himself from what is in him. His sleep will not withstand |
| Tx:13.73 | by yourself or for yourself alone. No thought of God's Son can be | separate or isolated in its effects. Every decision is made for the |
| Tx:13.87 | God beside you. For until you do, you will still think that you are | separate from Him. You can feel His Presence next to you but cannot |
| Tx:14.20 | made have use to Him for His most holy purpose. He knows you are not | separate from God, but He perceives much in your mind that lets you |
| Tx:14.20 | that lets you think you are. All this, and nothing else, would He | separate from you. The power of decision, which you made in place of |
| Tx:14.22 | He will not attempt to communicate the meaningless. But He will | separate out all that has meaning, dropping off the rest and offering |
| Tx:14.28 | denies the other. Apart, this fact is lost from sight, for each in a | separate place can be endowed with firm belief. Bring them together, |
| Tx:14.72 | Each brings the other with it, for it is the law of God they be not | separate. They are cause and effect, each to the other, so where one |
| Tx:15.21 | will receive very specific instructions as you go along. To learn to | separate out this single second and begin to experience it as |
| Tx:15.21 | experience it as timeless, is to begin to experience yourself as not | separate. Fear not that you will not be given help in this. God's |
| Tx:15.46 | into your relationships and thus make them unreal. If you seek to | separate out certain aspects of the totality and look to them to meet |
| Tx:15.54 | join in Christ. Those who are joined in Christ are in no way | separate. For Christ is the Self the Sonship shares, as God shares |
| Tx:15.82 | this universe, being of God, is far beyond the petty sum of all the | separate bodies you perceive. For all its parts are joined in God |
| Tx:15.90 | your sight grows weak and dim and limited, for you have attempted to | separate the Father from the Son and limit their communication. Seek |
| Tx:15.95 | governs all of them. When you are willing to regard them not as | separate but as different manifestations of the same idea, and one |
| Tx:16.8 | needs of one, you do not jeopardize another because you keep them | separate and secret from each other. That is not the way, for it |
| Tx:16.53 | in the special relationship. An altar is erected in between two | separate people on which each seeks to kill his self and on his body |
| Tx:16.60 | Love is freedom. To look for it by placing yourself in bondage is to | separate yourself from it. For the love of God, no longer seek for |
| Tx:16.62 | On this side of the bridge, you see the world of | separate bodies seeking to join each other in separate unions and to |
| Tx:16.62 | you see the world of separate bodies seeking to join each other in | separate unions and to become one by losing. When two individuals |
| Tx:16.62 | to decrease their magnitude. Each would deny his power, for the | separate union excludes the universe. Far more is left outside than |
| Tx:17.26 | that I would interpose between you and your goal of madness. Be not | separate from me, and let not the holy purpose of Atonement be lost |
| Tx:17.30 | with Him has never been broken because the Holy Spirit has not been | separate from anyone since the separation. And through Him have all |
| Tx:17.55 | gladness, too, is yours. You are joined in purpose, but remain still | separate and divided on the means. |
| Tx:17.79 | risen far beyond any situation that could hold you back and keep you | separate from Him Whose call you answered. |
| Tx:18.2 | in which they are perceived as different. One would unite; the other | separate. Nothing can come between what God has joined and what the |
| Tx:18.7 | insanely in the wind, have no substance. They fuse and merge and | separate in shifting and totally meaningless patterns which need not |
| Tx:18.28 | Spirit's will. No little, faltering footsteps that you may take can | separate your desire from His Will and from His strength. I hold your |
| Tx:18.28 | your hand as surely as you agreed to take each other's. You will not | separate, for I stand with you and walk with you in your advance to |
| Tx:18.30 | past. Time has been readjusted to help us do together what your | separate pasts would hinder. You have gone past fear, for no two |
| Tx:18.49 | God created only this, and He did not depart from it nor leave it | separate from Himself. The Kingdom of Heaven is the dwelling-place of |
| Tx:18.50 | your minds, for guilt has entered into them, and they would remain | separate, which they cannot do. |
| Tx:18.51 | to be fragmented and private and alone. Its guilt, which keeps it | separate, is projected to the body, which suffers and dies because it |
| Tx:18.55 | but you do not identify with them. You see yourself locked in a | separate prison, removed and unreachable, incapable of reaching out |
| Tx:18.59 | you unite with it. And both become whole as neither is perceived as | separate. What really happens is that you have given up the illusion |
| Tx:18.75 | a world inhabited by bodies seem to be. Each body seems to house a | separate mind, a disconnected thought living alone and in no way |
| Tx:18.76 | itself as you. It is not missing; it could not exist if it were | separate, nor would the whole be whole without it. It is not a |
| Tx:18.76 | were separate, nor would the whole be whole without it. It is not a | separate kingdom, ruled by an idea of separation from the rest. Nor |
| Tx:18.76 | the whole, being continuous with it and at one with it. It leads no | separate life because its life is the oneness in which its being was |
| Tx:18.84 | tiny part of yourself, the little thought that seems split off and | separate, which the Holy Spirit needs. The rest is fully in God's |
| Tx:18.85 | holy, serene and unaware of what you think surrounds it. Be you not | separate, for the One Who does surround it has brought union to you, |
| Tx:19.5 | all limitations and make whole. [Faithlessness would destroy and | separate; faith would unite and heal.] Faithlessness would interpose |
| Tx:19.8 | is and where it must be healed. The result of an idea is never | separate from its source. The idea of separation produced the body |
| Tx:19.11 | is His love that joins you, and for His love you would keep no one | separate from yours. Each one appears just as he is perceived in the |
| Tx:19.15 | As faithlessness will keep your little kingdoms barren and | separate, so will faith help the Holy Spirit prepare the ground for |
| Tx:19.20 | it, rather, an attempt to wrest creation away from truth and keep it | separate? |
| Tx:19.36 | let not sin arise again to blind your eyes. For sin would keep you | separate, but your Redeemer would have you look upon each other as |
| Tx:19.42 | it. What you would still contain behind your little barrier and keep | separate from each other seems mightier than the universe, for it |
| Tx:19.106 | and share in it that we may rise as one in resurrection and not | separate in death. Behold the gift of freedom that I gave the Holy |
| Tx:20.17 | and interposing them between those who would meet to keep them | separate and prevent their union. It is this studied interference |
| Tx:20.64 | without the end for which it was intended, nor is it valued as a | separate thing apart from the intention. The means seem real because |
| Tx:21.20 | will and thus without the Will of his Creator, Whose Will cannot be | separate from his own. |
| Tx:21.28 | which seems to stand between you, keeping you from each other and | separate from your Father, you made in secret, and the instant of |
| Tx:21.51 | seem unnatural to the ego because it does not understand how | separate minds can influence each other. Nor could they do so. But |
| Tx:21.51 | can influence each other. Nor could they do so. But minds cannot be | separate. This other Self is perfectly aware of this. And thus It |
| Tx:21.60 | and look upon himself apart from it? Sin would maintain you must be | separate. But reason tells you that this must be wrong. If you are |
| Tx:21.61 | for itself unless the body were the mind. For only bodies can be | separate and therefore unreal. The home of madness cannot be the home |
| Tx:21.63 | The body does not | separate you from your brother, and if you think it does, you are |
| Tx:21.64 | never be corrected. You tell him by your choice that he is damned— | separate from you and from his Father forever and without a hope of |
| Tx:22.11 | So in each holy relationship is the ability to communicate instead of | separate reborn. Yet a holy relationship, so recently reborn itself |
| Tx:22.12 | has entered, no one is alone, for never could He find a home in | separate ones. Yet must He be reborn into His ancient home, so |
| Tx:22.27 | upon its will, and earth will be as it would have it be. Here is no | separate will nor the desire that anything be separate. Its will has |
| Tx:22.27 | have it be. Here is no separate will nor the desire that anything be | separate. Its will has no exceptions, and what it wills is true. |
| Tx:22.29 | not ambiguous. It can be understood. And here do reason and the ego | separate to go their different ways. |
| Tx:22.47 | together with nothing in between. God holds your hands, and what can | separate whom He has joined as one with Him? It is your Father Whom |
| Tx:22.50 | cost of all illusions. Not one but rests on the belief that you are | separate. Not one that does not seem to stand, heavy and solid and |
| Tx:22.61 | this is your attempt because you think the Father and the Son are | separate. And you must think that they are separate because of fear. |
| Tx:22.61 | Father and the Son are separate. And you must think that they are | separate because of fear. For it seems safer to attack another or |
| Tx:22.62 | The only way it could be justified is if each one of you were | separate from the other, and all were separate from your Creator. For |
| Tx:22.62 | is if each one of you were separate from the other, and all were | separate from your Creator. For only then would it be possible to |
| Tx:22.65 | given you to be used and not obscured. What teaches you you cannot | separate, denies the ego. Let truth decide if you be different or the |
| Tx:23.20 | everyone. Like all these principles, this one maintains that each is | separate and has a different set of thoughts which sets him off from |
| Tx:23.23 | enemies. And their relationship is one of opposition, just as the | separate aspects of the Son meet only to conflict but not to join. |
| Tx:24.10 | suffer vengeance. Every twinge of malice or stab of hate or wish to | separate arises here. For here the purpose which you share becomes |
| Tx:24.22 | with Him Who chose that love could never be divided and kept | separate from what it is and must forever be. You are your brother's; |
| Tx:24.24 | self. Nothing is sacred here but unto you and you alone, apart and | separate from all your brothers, safe from all intrusions of sanity |
| Tx:24.27 | not God's. So does it seem to split you off from God and make you | separate from Him as its defender. You would protect what God created |
| Tx:24.50 | one with him and you—that what he has is yours because you are not | separate from him nor from his Father. |
| Tx:24.59 | and unjoined with anything beyond the body. In its eyes, you are a | separate universe with all the power to hold itself complete within |
| Tx:24.69 | will come to you when you are ready. Here are the means and purpose | separate because they were so made and so perceived. And therefore do |
| Tx:25.6 | of what it is your purpose to behold, for means and end are never | separate. And thus you learn what seems to have a life apart has none. |
| Tx:25.7 | You are the means for God—not | separate nor with a life apart from His. His Life is manifest in you |
| Tx:25.7 | Him now, to let Him draw aside the veil that seems to keep you | separate and apart. |
| Tx:25.8 | Since you believe that you are | separate, Heaven presents itself to you as separate too. Not that it |
| Tx:25.8 | you believe that you are separate, Heaven presents itself to you as | separate too. Not that it is in truth, but that the link that has |
| Tx:25.8 | brothers join as one in truth. Christ and His Father never have been | separate, and Christ abides within your understanding in the part of |
| Tx:25.8 | The Holy Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad desire to be | separate, different, and special, to the Christ, to make the oneness |
| Tx:25.10 | as if they were discrete, for while you think that part of you is | separate, the concept of a oneness joined as one is meaningless. It |
| Tx:25.11 | What is the same can not be different, and what is one can not have | separate parts. |
| Tx:25.17 | is the frame God set around the part of Him that you would see as | separate. Yet its frame is joined to its Creator, one with Him and |
| Tx:25.17 | it but serves His purpose, not yours apart from His. It is your | separate purpose that obscures the picture and cherishes the frame |
| Tx:25.21 | Forgive your brother, and you cannot | separate yourself from him nor from his Father. You need no |
| Tx:25.22 | light be yours to share; that you may see as one what never has been | separate nor apart from all God's love as given equally. |
| Tx:25.24 | it is, and from His Son's belief He could not let Himself be | separate entirely. He could not enter His Son's insanity with him, |
| Tx:25.71 | But vengeance without love has gained in strength by being | separate and apart from love. And what but vengeance now can help and |
| Tx:25.74 | is but for this—that each one learn that love and justice are not | separate. And both are strengthened by their union with each other. |
| Tx:25.83 | more condemned, and thus apart from healing. Who is there who can be | separate from salvation if its purpose is the end of specialness? |
| Tx:26.1 | saving just a little for yourself. To see a brother in another body | separate from yours is the expression of a wish to see a little part |
| Tx:26.4 | And while you see your brother as a body, apart from you and | separate in his cell, you are demanding sacrifice of him and you. |
| Tx:26.4 | Father be without His Son? Yet every sacrifice demands that they be | separate and without the other. The memory of God must be denied if |
| Tx:26.4 | What witness to the wholeness of God's Son is seen within a world of | separate bodies, however much he witnesses to truth? He is invisible |
| Tx:26.9 | keep himself from justice? Could your function be a task apart and | separate from His Own? |
| Tx:26.26 | has been forgiven must join, for nothing stands between to keep them | separate and apart. The sinless must perceive that they are one, for |
| Tx:26.26 | recognizing what is part of them has not been kept apart and | separate. |
| Tx:26.54 | off is symbolized in your perception by a body which is clearly | separate and a thing apart. Yet what this symbol represents is but |
| Tx:26.54 | Yet what this symbol represents is but your wish to be apart and | separate. Forgiveness takes away what stands between your brother and |
| Tx:26.59 | feel guilty, though without understanding why. Effects are seen as | separate from their source and seem to be beyond you to control or to |
| Tx:26.60 | Cause and effect are one, not | separate. God wills you learn what always has been true—that He |
| Tx:26.61 | possible when cause and consequence are brought together, not kept | separate. The healing of effect without the cause can merely shift |
| Tx:26.62 | but deceive yourself. What God calls one will be forever one, not | separate. His Kingdom is united—thus it was created, and thus will |
| Tx:26.68 | little you would keep between yourselves that you might be a little | separate. For time and space are one illusion which takes different |
| Tx:26.69 | a little careful and a little watchful of interests perceived as | separate. From this perception you cannot conceive of gaining what |
| Tx:26.72 | judged as fearful. And in overlooking this, is it protected and kept | separate from healing. For a miracle is now. It stands already here |
| Tx:26.77 | him, that you may behold His glory and rejoice that Heaven is not | separate from you. |
| Tx:26.84 | Whom it was created. Where He dwells, His Son dwells with Him, never | separate. And They give thanks that They are welcome made at last. |
| Tx:27.24 | [Correction you would do must | separate, because that is the function given it by you. When you |

| Tx:27.69 | Helpless he stands, a victim to a dream conceived and cherished by a | separate mind. Careless indeed of him this mind must be, as |
| Tx:27.82 | the dream he gave away unto the dreamer who perceives the dream as | separate from himself and done to him. Into eternity, where all is |

| Tx:27.90 | has maintained you separate from the world and kept your brother | separate from you. Now need you but to learn that both of you are |
| Tx:28.18 | seen. A mind within a body and a world of other bodies, each with | separate minds, are your “creations,” you the “other” mind, creating |

| Tx:28.29 | No mind is sick until another mind agrees that they are | separate. And thus it is their joint decision to be sick. If you |
| Tx:28.29 | project its guilt without your aid in letting it perceive itself as | separate and apart from you. Thus is the body not perceived as sick |
| Tx:28.29 | you. Thus is the body not perceived as sick by both your minds, from | separate points of view. Uniting with a brother's mind prevents the |
| Tx:28.29 | the effect of minds which join, as sickness comes from minds which | separate. |
| Tx:28.30 | The miracle does nothing just because the minds are joined and cannot | separate. Yet in the dreaming has this been reversed, and separate |

| Tx:28.56 | does not know. You send it forth to seek for separation and to be a | separate thing. And then you hate it, not for what it is, but for the |
| Tx:28.61 | What is unseparated must be joined. And what is joined cannot be | separate. |
| Tx:29.3 | is your enemy. Sometimes a friend, perhaps, provided that your | separate interests made your friendship possible a little while. But |
| Tx:29.4 | The gap between you is not one of space between two | separate bodies. This but seems to be dividing off your separate |
| Tx:29.4 | between two separate bodies. This but seems to be dividing off your | separate minds. It is the symbol of a promise made to meet when you |

| Tx:1.91 | from God is the only lack he really needs to correct. This sense of | separation would never have occurred if he had not distorted his |
| Tx:2.1 | knowledge, referred to in the Bible as the cause of the “fall,” or | separation. There are some definitions which I asked you to take from |
| Tx:2.4 | These concepts need to be clarified before the real meaning of the | separation, or the “detour into fear,” can be fully understood. |
| Tx:2.11 | distortions represent a picture of what actually occurred in the | separation. None of this existed before, nor does it actually exist |
| Tx:2.36 | itself was an act of love. Acts were not necessary before the | separation because the time-space belief did not exist. It was only |
| Tx:2.36 | because the time-space belief did not exist. It was only after the | separation that the defense of Atonement and the necessary conditions |
| Tx:2.39 | The eternally creative have nothing to learn. Only after the | separation was it necessary to direct the creative forces to learning |
| Tx:2.44 | of defenses is essential in releasing the inner light. Since the | separation, man's defenses have been used almost entirely to defend |

| Tx:2.106 | of God. Man brought judgment into being only because of the | separation. After the separation, however, there was a place for |
| Tx:2.106 | judgment into being only because of the separation. After the | separation, however, there was a place for judgment as one of the |
| Tx:2.106 | devices which had to be built into the overall plan. Just as the | separation occurred over many millions of years, the Last Judgment |
| Tx:3.19 | from its sleep and [the Soul] remembers its Creator. All sense of | separation disappears, and level confusion vanishes. The Son of God |
| Tx:3.38 | [and illusions are not pure]. Perception did not exist until the | separation had introduced degrees, aspects, and intervals. The Soul |
| Tx:3.38 | Trinity are capable of unity. The levels which man created by the | separation cannot but conflict. This is because they are essentially |
| Tx:3.42 | his own error, and that is why he must eventually choose to heal the | separation. |
| Tx:3.44 | mind is very active because it has will-power. When it willed the | separation, it willed to perceive. Until then, it willed only to |
| Tx:3.51 | which is inherently judgmental, was introduced only after the | separation. No one has been sure of anything since. You will also |
| Tx:3.52 | Since the | separation, the words “create” and “make” have been greatly confused. |

| Tx:3.74 | but its meaning must be clearly understood without symbols. The | separation is not symbolic. It is an order of reality or a system of |
| Tx:3.78 | The mind can make the belief in | separation very real and very fearful, and this belief is the |
| Tx:4.3 | been needlessly wasted in a repetition compulsion. It reenacts the | separation, the loss of power, the foolish journey of the ego in an |
| Tx:4.7 | because they cannot conceive of it as a change towards healing the | separation. They always perceive it as a change towards further |
| Tx:4.7 | the separation. They always perceive it as a change towards further | separation because the separation was their first experience of |
| Tx:4.7 | perceive it as a change towards further separation because the | separation was their first experience of change. |

| Tx:4.12 | ego,” you will be afraid because to enlarge an ego is to increase | separation anxiety. I will teach with you and live with you if you |
| Tx:4.17 | fear. Your investment is great now because fear is a witness to the | separation, and your ego rejoices when you witness to it. Leave it |
| Tx:4.48 | why the ego regards the Soul as its “enemy.” The ego arose from the | separation, and its continued existence depends on your continuing |
| Tx:4.48 | and its continued existence depends on your continuing belief in the | separation. Having reduced the Soul impulses to the unconscious, the |
| Tx:4.88 | Soul do not know each other. The separated mind cannot maintain the | separation except by dissociating. Having done this, it utilizes |
| Tx:5.11 | knowledge that lies beyond perception. It came into being with the | separation as a protection, inspiring the beginning of the Atonement |
| Tx:5.17 | is the motivation for miracle-mindedness, the will to heal the | separation by letting it go. This will is in you, because God placed |
| Tx:5.18 | This is the vocation of the mind. The mind had no calling until the | separation, because before that it had only being and would not have |
| Tx:5.18 | the call to right thinking. The Holy Spirit was God's Answer to the | separation, the means by which the Atonement could repair until the |
| Tx:5.19 | The Atonement and the | separation began at the same time. When man made the ego, God placed |
| Tx:5.21 | and the Kingdom of Heaven breaks through into its own. Before the | separation you did not need guidance. You knew as you will know |
| Tx:5.32 | The relationship must be in His Mind because, unless it were, the | separation between the two ways of thinking would not be open to |
| Tx:5.40 | Those which you accept are the foundations of your beliefs. The | separation is merely another term for a split mind. It was not an |
| Tx:5.40 | split mind. It was not an act, but a thought. Therefore, the idea of | separation can be given away, just as the idea of unity can. Either |
| Tx:5.41 | The ego is the symbol of | separation, just as the Holy Spirit is the symbol of peace. What you |
| Tx:5.60 | it obeys the law of division. If the ego is the symbol of the | separation, it is also the symbol of guilt. Guilt is more than merely |
| Tx:6.1 | and fear is not always so clear. Anger always involves projection of | separation, which must ultimately be accepted as entirely one's own |
| Tx:6.24 | to teach that all forms of rejection are utterly meaningless. The | separation is the notion of rejection. As long as you teach this, you |
| Tx:6.25 | must involve a rejection of part of it, and this is the belief in | separation. The wholeness of God, which is His peace, cannot be |
| Tx:6.25 | creation and by this recognition knows its Creator. Exclusion and | separation are synonymous, as are separation and dissociation. We |
| Tx:6.25 | knows its Creator. Exclusion and separation are synonymous, as are | separation and dissociation. We have said before that the separation |
| Tx:6.25 | as are separation and dissociation. We have said before that the | separation was and is dissociation and also that, once it had |
| Tx:6.27 | belief in your own split mind, and its only purpose is to keep the | separation going. It is solely a device of the ego to make you feel |
| Tx:6.34 | full awareness of the Atonement, then, is the recognition that the | separation never occurred. The ego cannot prevail against this |
| Tx:6.48 | makes the body the ego's friend. It is an alliance frankly based on | separation. If you side with this alliance, you will be afraid, |
| Tx:6.56 | Teaching aims at change, but God created only the changeless. The | separation was not a loss of perfection but a failure in |
| Tx:6.62 | The body is the symbol of what you think you are. It is clearly a | separation device and therefore does not exist. The Holy Spirit, as |
| Tx:6.62 | as always, He re-interprets what the ego uses as an argument for | separation into a demonstration against it. If the mind can heal the |
| Tx:7.9 | thus making the Kingdom itself obscure to both of you. Sickness and | separation are not of God, but the Kingdom is. If you obscure the |
| Tx:7.45 | Healing never does. Fear produces dissociation, because it induces | separation. Healing always produces harmony, because it proceeds from |
| Tx:7.69 | Creation, not | separation, is your will because it is God's, and nothing that |
| Tx:7.90 | the belief that you can be alone, thus dispelling the idea of | separation and affirming your true identification with the whole |
| Tx:7.105 | me is not really open to choice, though it may seem to be. The whole | separation lies in this fallacy. The only way out of the fallacy is |
| Tx:8.30 | you consider what healing is for. Healing is the way in which the | separation is overcome. Separation is overcome by union. It cannot be |
| Tx:8.30 | is for. Healing is the way in which the separation is overcome. | Separation is overcome by union. It cannot be overcome by separating. |
| Tx:8.37 | The recognition of God is the recognition of yourself. There is no | separation of God and His creation. You will learn this as you learn |
| Tx:8.37 | and His creation. You will learn this as you learn that there is no | separation of your will and mine. Let the love of God shine upon you |
| Tx:8.56 | Communication ends | separation. Attack promotes it. The body is beautiful or ugly, holy |
| Tx:8.63 | its own extension beyond it, will induce illness by fostering | separation. Perceiving the body as a separate entity cannot but |
| Tx:8.96 | Your will is your salvation because it is the same as God's. The | separation is nothing more than the belief that it is different. |
| Tx:9.16 | ridiculous as it seems, is really the crucial issue in the whole | separation fantasy. Anyone who elects a totally insane guide must be |
| Tx:9.67 | for if to desire wholly is to create, you will have willed away the | separation, returning your mind simultaneously to your Creator and |
| Tx:9.92 | the returning, the little light must be acknowledged first, for the | separation was a descent from magnitude to littleness. But the spark |
| Tx:10.16 | If sickness is | separation, the will to heal and be healed is the first step toward |
| Tx:10.41 | “Dynamics” implies the power to do something, and the whole | separation fallacy lies in the belief that the ego has the power to |
| Tx:10.43 | of any power except its own. This is why it is the symbol of | separation. |
| Tx:10.46 | The ego always attacks on behalf of | separation. Believing it has the power to do this, it does nothing |
| Tx:10.48 | is indeed the skill at which it is very ingenious. How can it preach | separation without upholding it through fear, and would you listen to |
| Tx:10.53 | that the ego believes that power, understanding, and truth lie in | separation, and to establish this belief it must attack. Unaware that |
| Tx:10.53 | belief cannot be established and obsessed with the conviction that | separation is salvation, the ego attacks everything it perceives by |
| Tx:10.53 | meaning. The ego will always substitute chaos for meaning, for if | separation is salvation, harmony is threat. |
| Tx:10.85 | In the real world there is no sickness, for there is no | separation and no division. Only loving thoughts are recognized, and |
| Tx:11.13 | truth. And thus will you learn of Him how to replace your dream of | separation with the fact of unity. For the separation is only the |
| Tx:11.13 | to replace your dream of separation with the fact of unity. For the | separation is only the denial of union and, correctly interpreted, |
| Tx:11.32 | Mind of God, you would die, and the world you perceive is a world of | separation. |
| Tx:11.46 | a split mind has made itself a poor learner. You tried to make the | separation eternal because you wanted to retain the characteristics |
| Tx:11.60 | What is one cannot be perceived as separate, and the denial of the | separation is the reinstatement of knowledge. At the altar of God, |
| Tx:11.86 | of guilt into the Mind of God's Son was the beginning of the | separation, as the acceptance of the Atonement is its end. The world |
| Tx:11.86 | Their growth is attended by suffering, and they learn of sorrow and | separation and death. Their minds are trapped in their brain, and its |
| Tx:11.94 | guilt brings a belief in condemnation of one by another, projecting | separation in place of unity. You can condemn only yourself, and by |
| Tx:12.12 | not believe that it saves you from love. For this wish caused the | separation. You have protected it because you do not want the |
| Tx:12.12 | the separation. You have protected it because you do not want the | separation healed, and you realize that, by removing the dark cloud |
| Tx:12.69 | and hurled into the dust. For where the ego sees salvation, it sees | separation, and so you lose whatever you have gotten in its name. |
| Tx:13.3 | to be in the future, was accomplished by God in your creation. The | separation has not interrupted it. Creation cannot be interrupted. |
| Tx:13.3 | has not interrupted it. Creation cannot be interrupted. The | separation is merely a faulty formulation of reality with no effect |
| Tx:13.26 | does what God would have Him do and has always done so. He has seen | separation, but knows of union. He teaches healing, but He also knows |
| Tx:14.8 | and nothing else can unite us in this world. So will the world of | separation slip away and full communication be restored between the |
| Tx:14.20 | You have interpreted the | separation as a means which you have made for breaking your |
| Tx:14.24 | Opposites must be brought together and not kept apart. For their | separation is only in your mind, and they are reconciled by union, as |
| Tx:14.27 | impossible. But if one is kept in darkness from the other, their | separation seems to keep them both alive and equal in their reality. |
| Tx:14.35 | They are joined in giving you the gift of oneness, before which all | separation vanishes. Unite with what you are. You cannot join with |
| Tx:14.54 | the underlying lack of content makes a cohesive system impossible. | Separation therefore remains the ego's chosen condition. For no one |
| Tx:15.46 | look to them to meet your imagined needs, you are attempting to use | separation to save you. How, then, could guilt not enter? For |
| Tx:15.46 | to use separation to save you. How, then, could guilt not enter? For | separation is the source of guilt, and to appeal to it for salvation |
| Tx:15.47 | with special love, can offer you salvation is the belief that | separation is salvation. For it is the complete equality of the |
| Tx:15.52 | would see them all the same and like yourself. Nor would you see any | separation between yourself and them. In the holy instant, you see in |
| Tx:15.58 | All | separation vanishes as holiness is shared. For holiness is power, and |
| Tx:15.82 | where they become like to their Father. For Christ knows of no | separation from His Father, Who is His one relationship, in which He |
| Tx:15.86 | The body is the symbol of the ego, as the ego is the symbol of the | separation. And both are nothing more than attempts to limit |
| Tx:15.90 | the Son and limit their communication. Seek not Atonement in further | separation. And limit not your vision of God's Son to what interferes |
| Tx:15.91 | the body only for purposes of communication and renounce its use for | separation and attack which the ego sees in it, you will learn you |
| Tx:15.104 | You who believe that sacrifice is love must learn that sacrifice is | separation from love. For sacrifice brings guilt as surely as love |
| Tx:16.25 | and you, as you are God and Him together. For God's answer to the | separation added more to you than you tried to take away. He |
| Tx:16.36 | The special love relationship is an attempt [to bring love into | separation. And, as such, it is nothing more than an attempt] to |
| Tx:16.45 | This is the “natural” condition of the | separation, and those who learn that it is not natural at all seem to |
| Tx:16.45 | illusion of love is accepted in love's place, love is perceived as | separation and exclusion. |
| Tx:16.46 | is not hell, but Heaven. For the ego would never have you see that | separation can only be loss, being the one condition in which Heaven |
| Tx:16.52 | For these are only attributes of the whole religion of the | separation and of the total context in which it is thought to occur. |
| Tx:16.57 | The core of the | separation delusion lies simply in the fantasy of destruction of |
| Tx:16.57 | restored to you, you cannot know yourself, who shares its meaning. | Separation is only the decision not to know yourself. Its whole |
| Tx:16.60 | yourself from it. For the love of God, no longer seek for union in | separation nor for freedom in bondage! As you release, so will you be |
| Tx:17.6 | knows the truth and in Whom all is brought to truth. [Salvation from | separation will be complete or will be not at all.] Be not concerned |
| Tx:17.15 | of another and not harm yourself. They speak so clearly for the | separation that no one not obsessed with keeping separation could |
| Tx:17.15 | so clearly for the separation that no one not obsessed with keeping | separation could hear them. They offer you the “reasons” why you |
| Tx:17.19 | as a means of communication into relationships whose only purpose is | separation from reality? What forgiveness is enables Him to do so. |
| Tx:17.20 | That is why Atonement centers on the past, which is the source of | separation, and where it must be undone. For separation must be |
| Tx:17.20 | which is the source of separation, and where it must be undone. For | separation must be corrected where it was made. The ego seeks to |
| Tx:17.21 | it is and there undoes it. And with each step in His undoing is the | separation more and more undone and union brought closer. He is not |
| Tx:17.21 | union brought closer. He is not at all confused by any “reasons” for | separation. All He perceives in separation is that it must be undone. |
| Tx:17.21 | at all confused by any “reasons” for separation. All He perceives in | separation is that it must be undone. Let Him uncover the hidden |
| Tx:17.29 | to the creation of the Holy Spirit, Who was God's answer to the | separation. For although the ego did not understand what had been |
| Tx:17.30 | The whole defense system which the ego evolved to protect the | separation from the Holy Spirit was in response to the gift with |
| Tx:17.30 | because the Holy Spirit has not been separate from anyone since the | separation. And through Him have all your holy relationships been |
| Tx:17.31 | defenses are as insane as what they are supposed to protect. The | separation has nothing in it, no part, no “reason,” and no attribute |
| Tx:17.62 | of the situation and deal with them separately, for it has faith in | separation and not in wholeness. |
| Tx:18.1 | exclude, and substitution is the strongest defense the ego has for | separation. |
| Tx:18.9 | you made for Heaven can keep you from it. In you there is no | separation, and no substitute can keep you from each other. Your |
| Tx:18.12 | has been broken and join in making whole what has been ravaged by | separation and disease? |
| Tx:18.51 | not. Only by assigning to the mind the properties of the body does | separation seem to be possible. And it is mind that seems to be |
| Tx:18.51 | the body, which suffers and dies because it is attacked, to hold the | separation in the mind and let it not know its identity. Mind cannot |
| Tx:18.53 | Would you not have the instruments of | separation reinterpreted as means for salvation and used for purposes |
| Tx:18.76 | whole without it. It is not a separate kingdom, ruled by an idea of | separation from the rest. Nor does a fence surround it, preventing it |
| Tx:19.3 | its weapon used against this Purpose to demonstrate the “fact” that | separation has occurred. The body thus becomes the instrument of |
| Tx:19.8 | totally disconnected to each other. Where there is no overlap, there | separation must be complete. And to perceive this is to recognize |
| Tx:19.8 | must be complete. And to perceive this is to recognize where | separation is and where it must be healed. The result of an idea is |
| Tx:19.8 | The result of an idea is never separate from its source. The idea of | separation produced the body and remains connected to it, making it |
| Tx:19.32 | limit mind leads to a perception of the world in which the proof of | separation seems to be everywhere. And God and His creation seem to |
| Tx:19.81 | Creator. The arrogance of sin, the pride of guilt, the sepulcher of | separation—all are part of your unrecognized dedication to death. |
| Tx:19.92 | Here is your promise never to allow union to call you out of | separation; the great amnesia in which the memory of God seems quite |
| Tx:20.8 | in a blood-red light, the body is your chosen home, and it is | separation that you offer me. And yet the thorns are gone. Look you |
| Tx:20.26 | upon each other and on ourselves. Here all thoughts of any | separation between us become impossible. You who were prisoners in |
| Tx:20.26 | separation between us become impossible. You who were prisoners in | separation are now made free in Paradise. And here would I unite with |
| Tx:20.32 | here is to release him and so to free himself. In the world of | separation, each is appointed separately, though they are all the |
| Tx:20.50 | to no relationships and no return. Here is the “mystery” of | separation perceived in awe and held in reverence. What God would |
| Tx:21.20 | then, at what it is. And very simply see in it the whole exchange of | separation for salvation. All that the ego is, is an idea that it is |
| Tx:21.52 | You do not realize the whole extent to which the idea of | separation has interfered with reason. Reason lies in the other Self |
| Tx:22.21 | This is a crucial period in this course, for here the | separation of you and the ego must be made complete. For if you have |
| Tx:22.24 | power to enslave its maker. This is the same belief that caused the | separation. It is the meaningless idea that thoughts can leave the |
| Tx:22.64 | the union of the Creator and His Son. From loving minds there is no | separation. And every thought in one brings gladness to the other |
| Tx:24.30 | God asks for your forgiveness. He would have no | separation, like an alien will, rise between what He wills for you |
| Tx:24.35 | It was conceived to make you frail and helpless. The goal of | separation is its curse. Yet bodies have no goal. Purpose is of the |
| Tx:25.54 | of God to sanity and joy. Nothing attests to death and cruelty, to | separation, and to differences. For here is everything perceived as |
| Tx:26.2 | if they joined, each one would lose its own identity, and by their | separation are their selves maintained. |
| Tx:26.24 | Is not this like your special function, where the | separation is undone by change of purpose in what once was |
| Tx:26.47 | For when it once is possible, it must occur. All sickness comes from | separation. When the separation is denied, it goes. For it is gone as |
| Tx:26.47 | it must occur. All sickness comes from separation. When the | separation is denied, it goes. For it is gone as soon as the idea |
| Tx:27.16 | shows the mind has not been healed. A miracle of healing proves that | separation is without effect. What you would prove to him, you will |
| Tx:27.22 | you must be confused about yourself and who you are. What is the | separation but a wish to take God's function from Him and deny that |
| Tx:27.67 | evil in the world. And this is where your guilt was first beheld. In | separation from your brother was the first attack upon yourself |
| Tx:28.23 | The | separation started with the dream the Father was deprived of His |
| Tx:28.27 | will proceed to change the course of every step in the descent to | separation, until all the steps have been retraced, the ladder gone, |
| Tx:28.28 | to allow your first uncertain steps to be directed up the ladder | separation led you down. The miracle alone is your concern at |
| Tx:28.32 | The cause of pain is | separation, not the body, which is only its effect. Yet separation is |
| Tx:28.32 | of pain is separation, not the body, which is only its effect. Yet | separation is but empty space, enclosing nothing, doing nothing, and |
| Tx:28.46 | gap? The seeds of sickness come from the belief that there is joy in | separation, and its giving up would be a sacrifice. But miracles are |
| Tx:28.56 | and want, the body does not know. You send it forth to seek for | separation and to be a separate thing. And then you hate it, not for |
| Tx:28.61 | its oneness being where the healing lies. What could correct for | separation but its opposite? There is no middle ground in any aspect |
| Tx:28.63 | is the body healed. It is not used to witness to the dream of | separation and disease. Nor is it idly blamed for what it did not do. |
| Tx:29.3 | made with him. You shared a qualified entente in which a clause of | separation was a point on which you both agreed to keep intact. And |
| Tx:29.4 | you agree to meet from time to time and keep apart in intervals of | separation, which protect you from the “sacrifice” of love. The body |
| Tx:29.5 | could not separate your minds unless you wanted it to be a cause of | separation and of distance seen between you. Thus do you endow it |
| Tx:29.37 | dream. When dreams are shared, they lose the function of attack and | separation, even though it was for this that every dream was made. |
| Tx:29.38 | form. Forgiveness is your peace, for herein lies the end of | separation and the dream of danger and destruction, sin, and death; |
| Tx:30.56 | Here does the dream of | separation start to fade and disappear. For here the gap that is not |
| Tx:31.63 | is undoing. If you choose to see the body, you behold a world of | separation, unrelated things, and happenings that make no sense at |
| Tx:31.76 | sword, you must perceive the body as yourself, for you are bound to | separation from the sight of him who holds the mirror to another view |
| W1:41.1 | ones experience. Depression is an inevitable consequence of | separation. So are anxiety, worry, a deep sense of helplessness, |
| W1:54.4 | private thoughts, I cannot see a private world. Even the mad idea of | separation had to be shared before it could form the basis of the |
| W1:54.4 | thoughts, which share everything with everybody. As my thoughts of | separation call to the separation thoughts of others, so my real |
| W1:54.4 | everything with everybody. As my thoughts of separation call to the | separation thoughts of others, so my real thoughts awaken the real |
| W1:56.6 | God is in my mind. In my own mind, behind all my insane thoughts of | separation and attack, is the knowledge that all is one forever. I |

| W1:110.4 | future. If you are as God created you, then there has been no | separation of your mind from His, no split between your mind and |
| W1:124.7 | of reality. In our experience the world is freed; as we deny our | separation from our Father, it is healed along with us. |

| W1:137.2 | the others do not feel. It gives the body final power to make the | separation real and keep the mind in solitary prison, split apart and |
| W1:137.4 | must be the truth. But healing demonstrates that truth is true. The | separation sickness would impose has never really happened. To be |

| Tx:22.51 | increasing its importance by diminishing its own. Means | serve the end, and as the end is reached, the value of the means |
| Tx:22.51 | will believe it possible of mind or body, and he will make the other | serve his choice as means to find it. |
| Tx:22.52 | freedom of the body has no meaning, and so the mind is dedicated to | serve illusions. This is a situation so contradictory and so |

| Tx:27.61 | And no one will elect to suffer more. What better function could you | serve than this? Be healed that you may heal, and suffer not the laws |
| Tx:28.2 | your creation. And like all the things you made, it can be used to | serve another purpose and to be the means for something else. It can |

| Tx:29.12 | been futile to demand escape from sin and pain of what was made to | serve the function of retaining sin and pain. For pain and sin are |
| Tx:29.30 | as He perceives its function, Who can utilize all dreams as means to | serve the function given Him. Because He loves the dreamer not the |

| Tx:31.29 | learn, to pardon, nor enslave. It gives no orders that the mind need | serve nor sets conditions that it must obey. It holds in prison but |
| Tx:31.44 | teach is not the thing that it appears to be. For it is made to | serve two purposes, but one of which the mind can recognize. The |

| W1:10.8 | Today's idea can obviously | serve for any thought that distresses you at any time. In addition, |
| W1:24.1 | that perception is wrong. It is inevitable, then, that you will not | serve your own best interests. Yet they are your only goal in any |
| W1:71.4 | hope in other places and in other things. Another person will yet | serve better; another situation will yet offer success. |

| W1:133.9 | of value to you? What attracts your mind to it? What purpose does it | serve? Here it is easiest of all to be deceived, for what the ego |

| Tx:7.51 | I do not want to share my body in communion, because that is to | share nothing. [Would I try to share an illusion with the most holy |
| Tx:7.51 | body in communion, because that is to share nothing. [Would I try to | share an illusion with the most holy children of a most holy Father?] |
| Tx:7.51 | with the most holy children of a most holy Father?] Yet I do want to | share my mind with you, because we are of One Mind and that Mind is |
| Tx:7.52 | Come therefore unto me and learn of the truth in you. The mind we | share is shared by all our brothers, and as we see them truly, they |
| Tx:7.63 | While you believe that two totally contradictory thought systems | share truth, your need for vigilance is apparent. Your minds are |
| Tx:7.77 | therefore of your abundance and teach your brothers theirs. Do not | share their delusions of scarcity, or you will perceive yourself as |
| Tx:7.93 | The Soul yearns to | share its being as its Creator did. Created by sharing, its will is |
| Tx:7.100 | has nothing to do with your willingness at all. Truth is God's Will. | Share His Will, and you share what He knows. Deny His Will as yours, |
| Tx:7.100 | willingness at all. Truth is God's Will. Share His Will, and you | share what He knows. Deny His Will as yours, and you are denying His |
| Tx:8.4 | giving up by attacking them. How can you have what you give up? You | share to have, but you do not give it up yourself. When you give up |
| Tx:8.17 | it with His power and glory and establishing them as yours. You | share them as God shares them, because this is the natural outcome of |
| Tx:8.33 | whom He created. This is our gift of gratitude to Him, which He will | share with all His creations, to whom He gives equally whatever is |
| Tx:8.39 | Our success in transcending the ego is guaranteed by God, and I can | share [my perfect confidence in His promise, because I know He gave |
| Tx:8.41 | transcend the ego. My will will never be wanting, and if you want to | share it you will. I give it willingly and gladly, because I need you |
| Tx:8.50 | as valuable. Given this belief, you cannot understand anything. I | share with God the knowledge of the value He puts upon you. My |
| Tx:8.87 | Son is one, and you are enjoined to do the works of love, because we | share this oneness. Our minds are whole because they are one. If you |
| Tx:8.118 | deny you nothing because you have denied Him nothing, and so you can | share everything. This is the way, and the only way, to have His |
| Tx:9.11 | the ability to attack, which you did make, into the ability to | share, He translates what you have made into what God created. If you |
| Tx:9.25 | unhealed healer does not know how to give and consequently cannot | share. He cannot correct because he is not working correctively. He |
| Tx:9.82 | only the eternal. If God has but one Son, there is but one God. You | share reality with Him, because reality is not divided. To accept |
| Tx:9.91 | sick brother by weakening his belief in sickness, which he does not | share. The power of one mind can shine into another, because all the |
| Tx:9.97 | creation is sharing, it cannot create what is unlike itself. It can | share only what it is. Depression is isolation, and so it could not |
| Tx:9.102 | not insane. When you denied Him, you were insane. Would you have Him | share your insanity? God will never cease to love His Son, and His |
| Tx:10.5 | on which God will help you build again the thought system which you | share with Him. Not one stone you place upon it but will be blessed |
| Tx:10.10 | only this can bring you the joy which is His and which He wills to | share with you. Your love is as boundless as His because it is His. |
| Tx:10.15 | He holds, so that nothing He gives can contradict Him. You who | share His Life must share it to know it, for sharing is knowing. |
| Tx:10.15 | nothing He gives can contradict Him. You who share His Life must | share it to know it, for sharing is knowing. Blessed are you who |

| Tx:10.38 | of God, whose radiance is of his Father and whose glory he wills to | share as his Father shares it with him. There is no condemnation in |
| Tx:10.38 | in the Father. Sharing the perfect love of the Father, the Son must | share what belongs to Him, for otherwise he will not know the Father |
| Tx:10.44 | is between the ego's idle wishes and the Will of God, which you | share. Can this be a real conflict? |
| Tx:10.45 | on God, Whose function He shares with you. By His Willingness to | share it, He became as dependent on you as you are on Him. Do not |
| Tx:10.66 | and the awareness of Christ comes with the awakening of others to | share your redemption. |
| Tx:10.81 | take nothing in return. For what is yours is everything, and you | share it with God. This is its reality. Would the Holy Spirit, Who |
| Tx:10.83 | I know that it is in you. God's Sons have nothing which they do not | share. Ask for truth of any Son of God, and you have asked it of me. |
| Tx:10.86 | is yours, and you will not accept your healing without his. For you | share the real world as you share Heaven, and his healing is yours. |
| Tx:10.86 | accept your healing without his. For you share the real world as you | share Heaven, and his healing is yours. To love yourself is to heal |
| Tx:11.24 | how perfectly your lesson would be learned if you were unwilling to | share their poverty. For poverty is lack, and there is but one lack |
| Tx:11.54 | loves you, He will gladly teach you what He loves, for He wills to | share it. Remembering you always, He cannot let you forget your |
| Tx:11.57 | who sleeps. In His sight the Son of God is perfect, and He longs to | share His vision with you. He will show you the real world because |
| Tx:11.58 | sight of you. He looks quietly on the real world, which He would | share with you because He knows of the Father's love for Him. And |
| Tx:11.59 | perception and knowledge have become so similar that they | share the unification of the laws of God. |
| Tx:11.64 | becomes manifest through you. Do the Holy Spirit's work, for you | share in His function. As your function in Heaven is creation, so |
| Tx:11.73 | the Holy Spirit, it will be right, for judgment is His function. You | share His function only by judging as He does, reserving no judgment |
| Tx:11.83 | unreal world is a thing of despair, for it can never be. And you who | share God's Being with Him could never be content without reality. |
| Tx:12.31 | the means of salvation which you must learn to accept if you would | share His goal of salvation for you. |
| Tx:12.40 | to yourself, perceiving them as witnesses to your reality, which you | share with God. I am with them as I am with you, and we will draw |
| Tx:12.49 | them, you are releasing him. And since his past is yours, you | share in this release. Let no dark cloud out of your past obscure him |
| Tx:12.64 | Christ will always offer you the Will of God in recognition that you | share it with Him. |
| Tx:13.4 | and God has given Him to you because He has no Thoughts He does not | share. His message speaks of timelessness in time, and that is why |
| Tx:13.10 | is unwitnessed. God knows it, but you do not, and so you do not | share His witness to it. Nor do you witness unto Him, for reality is |
| Tx:13.22 | union with a brother in which you seek to lay your guilt upon him or | share it with him or perceive his own, you will feel guilty. Nor will |
| Tx:13.42 | peace in which the sweet and constant communication which God would | share with you is known. Yet His channels of reaching out cannot be |
| Tx:13.81 | And so He gives you what is yours because your Father would have you | share it with Him. In everything be led by Him and do not reconsider. |
| Tx:14.5 | have all of it transformed into a radiant message of God's Love, to | share with all the lonely ones who denied Him with you? God makes |
| Tx:14.6 | part to play in the Atonement, but the message given to each to | share is always the same—God's Son is guiltless. Each one teaches |
| Tx:14.6 | Who knows is with you. His gentleness is yours, and all the love you | share with God He holds in trust for you. He would teach you nothing |
| Tx:14.7 | God has blessed? There is nothing in the Mind of God that does not | share His shining innocence. Creation is the natural extension of |
| Tx:14.17 | from love's beneficence. What is kept apart from love cannot | share its healing power, because it has been separated off and kept |
| Tx:14.30 | to His. Joining with Him in seeing is the way in which you learn to | share with Him the interpretation of perception that leads to |
| Tx:14.32 | faithful, for He shared with God the promise that was given Him to | share with you. |
| Tx:14.43 | knows not where to look to find it. Let him, then, see it in you and | share it with you. |
| Tx:14.51 | That is the reason why the miracle gives equal blessing to all who | share in it, and that is also why everyone shares in it. The power of |
| Tx:14.63 | of fear of any kind, and if all those who meet or even think of you | share in your perfect peace, then you can be sure that you have |
| Tx:15.14 | as it takes to remember immortality and your immortal creations who | share it with you. As long as it takes to exchange hell for Heaven. |
| Tx:15.41 | is. You believe that it is possible to harbor thoughts you would not | share and that salvation lies in keeping your thoughts to yourself |
| Tx:15.41 | you think you find a way to keep what you would have alone and | share what you would share. And then you wonder why it is that you |
| Tx:15.41 | a way to keep what you would have alone and share what you would | share. And then you wonder why it is that you are not in full |
| Tx:15.42 | it to you is not enough to make it yours, for you are not ready to | share it with Him. And it cannot come into a mind that has decided to |
| Tx:15.57 | you, or it would be a limited gift to you. In the holy instant, we | share our faith in God's Son because we recognize together that he is |
| Tx:15.62 | you will recognize the only need the aspects of the Son of God | share equally, and by this recognition you will join with me in |
| Tx:15.80 | conceive of need so great. Behold the only need that God and His Son | share and will to meet together. You are not alone in this. The will |
| Tx:15.80 | are not alone in this. The will of your creations calls to you to | share your will with them. Turn, then, in peace from guilt to God and |
| Tx:15.83 | does not understand your problem in communication, for He does not | share it with you. It is only you who believe that it is |
| Tx:15.87 | body and to accept the fact that the ego has no purpose you would | share with it. For the ego would limit everyone to a body for its |
| Tx:16.3 | is from the past. And there is nothing from the past that you would | share, for there is nothing there that you would keep. Do not use |
| Tx:16.6 | to Him, for it is His perception and His strength that you would | share. And let Him offer you His strength and His perception to be |
| Tx:16.8 | function and not yours. He will not meet them secretly, for He would | share everything you give through Him. And that is why He gives it. |
| Tx:16.13 | another mind and joined with it. When two minds join as one and | share one idea equally, the first link in the awareness of the |
| Tx:16.18 | determine not to deny what has been given you by God[. Awake and | share it], for that is the only reason He has called to you. His |
| Tx:16.33 | aspect of living and use them for any purpose which they would not | share with others, are trying to live with guilt rather than die of |
| Tx:16.69 | and there let Him release you. He needs only your willingness to | share His perspective to give it to you completely. And your |
| Tx:16.69 | for your unwillingness by His perfect faith, and it is His faith you | share with Him there. Out of your recognition of your unwillingness |
| Tx:17.27 | with you to make you happy, and nothing you do which does not | share His purpose can be real. The purpose God ascribed to anything |
| Tx:17.55 | which makes Heaven glad. If Heaven were outside you, you could not | share in its gladness. Yet because it is within, the gladness, too, |
| Tx:17.56 | will surely fall in place because the goal is sure. And you will | share the gladness of the Sonship that it is so. As you begin to |
| Tx:17.72 | to your own relationship. Your faith will call the others to | share your purpose, as this same purpose called forth the faith in |
| Tx:18.9 | at your request, He has set the course inward to the truth you | share. In the mad world outside you, nothing can be shared but only |
| Tx:18.10 | and accept His gift as our most holy and perfect reality, which we | share in Him. |
| Tx:18.21 | holy relationship. It will be a happy dream, and one which you will | share with all who come within your sight. Through it, the blessing |
| Tx:18.48 | I desire this holy instant for myself that I may | share it with my brother, whom I love. It is not possible that I can |
| Tx:18.48 | without him, or he without me. Yet it is wholly possible for us to | share it now. And so I choose this instant as the one to offer to the |
| Tx:19.2 | Thus do you see him free, and in this vision does the Holy Spirit | share. And since He shares it, He has given it, and so He heals |
| Tx:19.10 | you have accepted the Atonement for yourself and would therefore | share it. By faith you offer the gift of freedom from the past, which |
| Tx:19.12 | faith arises from the Holy Spirit's perception and is the sign you | share it with Him. Faith is a gift you offer to the Son of God |
| Tx:19.28 | Spirit clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes. On this you | share His vision. Yet you do not share His recognition of the |
| Tx:19.28 | God can make mistakes. On this you share His vision. Yet you do not | share His recognition of the difference between time and eternity. |
| Tx:19.43 | from each other nor apart from the one you asked the Holy Spirit to | share with you. The little wall will fall away so quietly beneath the |
| Tx:19.53 | And they will return with all the happy things they found, to | share them lovingly with you. Be not afraid of them. They offer you |
| Tx:19.71 | whatever fear directs the body to do is therefore painful. It will | share the pain of all illusions, and the illusion of pleasure will be |
| Tx:19.100 | madness with pity and compassion but not with fear. For only if they | share in it does it seem fearful, and you do share in it until you |
| Tx:19.100 | fear. For only if they share in it does it seem fearful, and you do | share in it until you look upon each other with perfect faith and |
| Tx:19.101 | is your salvation. You see his madness, which you hate because you | share it. And all the pity and forgiveness that would heal it gives |
| Tx:19.101 | to fear. Brothers, you need forgiveness of each other, for you will | share in madness or in Heaven together. And you will raise your eyes |
| Tx:19.103 | to hide His loveliness. Yet still He holds forgiveness out to you to | share His holiness. This “enemy,” this “stranger” still offers you |
| Tx:19.104 | and thus receive it. Whom you forgive is free, and what you give you | share. Forgive the sins your brother thinks he has committed and all |
| Tx:19.106 | the time of resurrection. Let us give redemption to each other and | share in it that we may rise as one in resurrection and not separate |
| Tx:20.9 | sight. Those who accept the Holy Spirit's purpose as their own | share also His vision. And what enables Him to see His purpose shine |
| Tx:20.10 | while you see them not. Nor can you use what I have given unless you | share it. The Holy Spirit's vision is no idle gift, no plaything to |
| Tx:20.12 | illusions—only a pathway to the open door of Heaven, the home we | share in quietness, and where we live in gentleness and peace as one |
| Tx:20.27 | Share, then, this faith with me and know that it is justified. There | |
| Tx:20.30 | in the freedom that you see in him, you see your own. For this you | share. What God has given follows His laws and His alone. Nor is it |
| Tx:20.31 | power is of God, and they will give it only to what God has given to | share with them. Nothing but this can touch them, for they see only |
| Tx:20.31 | with little wings have not accepted for themselves the power to | share with you. |
| Tx:20.32 | See, then, the power of sinlessness within your brother and | share with him the power of the release from sin you offered him. To |
| Tx:20.44 | in safety and in peace. Let us consider now what he must learn, to | share his Father's confidence in him. What is he, that the Creator of |
| Tx:20.46 | simple and so obvious it cannot be misunderstood. But idols do not | share. |
| Tx:21.46 | ego's madness and not been made afraid because you did not choose to | share in it. At times it still deceives you. Yet in your saner |
| Tx:22.28 | All you need do to dwell in quiet here with Christ is | share His vision. Quickly and gladly is His vision given to anyone |
| Tx:22.30 | continuance depends on its belief you cannot learn this course. | Share this belief, and reason will be unable to see your errors and |
| Tx:22.42 | it received. Into your joined hands is it safely given, for you who | share it have become its willing guardians and protectors. |
| Tx:22.43 | To all who | share the love of God, the grace is given to be the givers of what |
| Tx:22.44 | wall. And only an illusion stands between you and the holy Self you | share. |
| Tx:23.3 | head held high, and fear no evil. The innocent are safe because they | share their innocence. Nothing they see is harmful, for their |
| Tx:23.3 | released from sin and fear, and happily returned to love. They | share the strength of love because they looked on innocence. And |
| Tx:23.9 | your self-appraisal. The ego joins with an illusion of yourself you | share with it. And yet illusions cannot join. They are the same, and |
| Tx:23.18 | seeks to dominate. Peace is the state where love abides and seeks to | share itself. Conflict and peace are opposites. Where one abides the |
| Tx:23.27 | enemies do not give willingly to one another, nor would they seek to | share the things they value. And what your enemies would keep from |
| Tx:23.49 | God does not | share His function with a body. He gave the function to create unto |
| Tx:23.53 | you must be one with them. Only a purpose unifies, and those who | share a purpose have a mind as one. The body has no purpose and must |
| Tx:23.54 | Think what is given those who | share their Father's purpose and who know that it is theirs! They |
| Tx:24.8 | specialness; his friend in a shared purpose. Specialness can never | share, for it depends on goals that you alone can reach. And he must |
| Tx:24.8 | both Himself, and to remember this is now the only purpose that you | share. And so it is the only one you have. |
| Tx:24.10 | hate or wish to separate arises here. For here the purpose which you | share becomes obscured from both of you. You would oppose this course |
| Tx:24.10 | have no purpose that is not the same and none your Father does not | share with you. For your relationship has been made clean of special |
| Tx:24.13 | his strong support? Who can detract from his omnipotence yet | share his power? And who can use him as the gauge of littleness and |
| Tx:24.22 | God gave Himself to both of you in equal love that both might | share the universe with Him Who chose that love could never be |
| Tx:24.46 | He rejoices that these sights are yours to look upon with Him and | share His joy. His perfect lack of specialness He offers you that you |
| Tx:24.51 | thought within His Mind is absent from your own. It is His Will you | share His love for you and look upon yourself as lovingly as He |
| Tx:24.62 | in place of your creations, who are son to you, that you might | share the Fatherhood of God, not snatch it from Him. What is this son |
| Tx:25.20 | Son as He does? Would He not make known to you His love if you but | share His praise of what He loves? God cherishes creation as the |
| Tx:25.20 | joy is made complete when any part of Him joins in His praise, to | share His joy. This brother is His perfect gift to you. And He is |
| Tx:25.22 | power of salvation that escape from darkness into light be yours to | share; that you may see as one what never has been separate nor apart |
| Tx:25.40 | this of you—that you return to him what is his due that you may | share in it with him. Alone does neither have it. So must it remain |
| Tx:25.50 | Nor will it change. Yet is it possible what God created not should | share the attributes of His creation when it opposes it in every way? |
| Tx:25.51 | cannot be changed? What is immutable besides His Will? And what can | share Its attributes except Itself? What wish can rise against His |
| Tx:25.62 | the Will of God to be fulfilled. Salvation is His Will because you | share it. Not for you alone but for the Self which is the Son of God. |
| Tx:25.67 | the other and denies that it is real. It is impossible for you to | share the Holy Spirit's justice with a mind that can conceive of |
| Tx:27.44 | Who can bestow upon another what he does not have? And who can | share what he denies himself? The Holy Spirit speaks to you. He does |
| Tx:27.54 | is the same. This is the law of purpose, which unites all those who | share in it within itself. Pleasure and pain are equally unreal, |
| Tx:27.54 | means for nothing, for they have a goal without a meaning. And they | share the lack of meaning which their purpose has. |
| Tx:27.78 | it can call its own. It looks about for special bodies which can | share its dream. Sometimes it dreams it is a conqueror of bodies |
| Tx:28.11 | time, and from the mind it healed in quiet then, to other minds to | share its quietness. And they will join in doing nothing to prevent |
| Tx:28.36 | the more that anyone receives, the more is left for all the rest to | share. The Guests have brought unlimited supply with Them. And no one |
| Tx:28.37 | to someone's dream of sickness and of death. It means that you | share not his wish to separate and let him turn illusions on himself. |
| Tx:28.37 | You could be anyone or anything, depending on whose evil dream you | share. You can be sure of just one thing—that you are evil, for you |
| Tx:28.37 | You can be sure of just one thing—that you are evil, for you | share in dreams of fear. |
| Tx:28.39 | Like you, your brother thinks he is a dream. | Share not in his illusion of himself, for your identity depends on |
| Tx:28.42 | You | share confusion and you are confused, for in the gap no stable self |
| Tx:28.44 | And when he sees this picture, he will recognize himself. If you | share not your brother's evil dream, this is the picture that the |
| Tx:28.47 | God is the alternate to dreams of fear. Who shares in them can never | share in Him. But who withdraws his mind from sharing them is sharing |
| Tx:28.47 | sharing them is sharing Him. There is no other choice. Except you | share it, nothing can exist. And you exist because God shared His |
| Tx:28.48 | alternatives. Where one appears, the other disappears. And which you | share becomes the only one you have. You have the one which you |
| Tx:28.48 | which you accept, because it is the only one you [want] to have. You | share no evil dreams if you forgive the dreamer and perceive that he |
| Tx:28.49 | Remember if you | share an evil dream, you will believe you are the dream you share. |
| Tx:28.49 | if you share an evil dream, you will believe you are the dream you | share. And fearing it, you will not want to know your own Identity |
| Tx:28.59 | he was born. Yet God reminds him of it every time he does not | share a promise to be sick but lets his mind be healed and unified. |
| Tx:29.36 | have forgiven him for all his dreams of death—a dream of hope you | share with him instead of dreaming evil separate dreams of hate. Why |
| Tx:29.36 | dreaming evil separate dreams of hate. Why does it seem so hard to | share this dream? Because unless the Holy Spirit gives the dream its |
| Tx:29.41 | nor its changelessness. There is no death because the living | share the function their Creator gave to them. Life's function cannot |
| Tx:30.37 | freedom. Nor can you be free apart from Him Whose holy will you | share. God turns to you to ask the world be saved, for by your own |
| Tx:30.43 | or could suffer change. Thoughts are not born and cannot die. They | share the attributes of their creator, nor have they a separate life |
| Tx:30.58 | been united in belief the purpose of the world is one which all must | share if hope be more than just a dream. |
| Tx:30.60 | is God's because it is but God Who could create a perfect Son and | share His Fatherhood with him. No one outside of Heaven knows how |
| Tx:30.86 | simply lies in this—all things have but one purpose which you | share with all the world. And nothing in the world can be opposed to |
| Tx:31.9 | There is no living thing which does not | share the universal will that it be whole and that you do not leave |
| Tx:31.55 | you stand accused of guilt for what your brother is. And you must | share his guilt because you chose it for him in the image of your |
| Tx:31.93 | and sorrow that you saw before. Yet this a vision is which you must | share with everyone you see, for otherwise you will behold it not. To |
| W1:45.2 | You think with the Mind of God. Therefore you | share your thoughts with Him, as He shares His with you. They are the |
| W1:45.2 | are the same thoughts because they are thought by the same Mind. To | share is to make alike or to make one. Nor do the thoughts you think |
| W1:54.4 | a sharing of nothing. I can also call upon my real thoughts, which | share everything with everybody. As my thoughts of separation call to |
| W1:57.5 | And I will perceive that peace also abides in the hearts of all who | share this place with me. |
| W1:57.6 | [35] My mind is part of God's. I am very holy. As I | share the peace of the world with my brothers, I begin to understand |
| W1:58.3 | that is apart from this joy because there is nothing that does not | share my holiness. As I recognize my holiness, so does the holiness |
| W1:58.4 | the truth about me. In the presence of my holiness, which I | share with God Himself, all idols vanish. |
| W1:58.5 | nothing can make me afraid. And because I am unafraid, everyone must | share in my understanding, which is the gift of God to me and to the |
| W1:59.6 | [45] God is the Mind with which I think. I have no thoughts I do not | share with God. I have no thoughts apart from Him because I have no |
| W1:62.4 | you as well as those who seem to be far away in space and time to | share this happiness with you. |
| W1:66.12 | you think about the premises on which our conclusion rests. We can | share in this conclusion, but in no other. For God Himself shares it |
| W1:69.1 | as the veil of your grievances is lifted, you are released with him. | Share your salvation now with him who stood beside you when you were |
| W1:73.1 | Today we are considering the will you | share with God. This is not the same as the ego's idle wishes, out of |
| W1:73.1 | wishes, out of which darkness and nothingness arise. The will you | share with God has all the power of creation in it. The ego's idle |
| W1:73.8 | salvation for yourself. You will to accept God's plan because you | share in it. You have no will that can really oppose it, and you do |
| W1:74.10 | There is no will but God's. I | share it with Him. My conflicts about _____ cannot be real. |
| W1:78.12 | from the past, allow the role of savior to be given that you may | share it with them. For you both, and all the sightless ones as well, |
| W1:82.4 | Let peace extend from my mind to yours, [name]. I | share the light of the world with you, [name]. Through my forgiveness |
| W1:91.13 | you. They are united with you in this practice period in which you | share a purpose like Their own. Theirs is the light in which you will |

| W1:167.8 | cannot share what He gives not nor make conditions which He does not | share with them. The thought of death is not the opposite to thoughts |

| W1:185.3 | Will of God. For minds can only join in truth. In dreams no two can | share the same intent. To each the hero of the dream is different— |
| W1:185.13 | to Him. And when it is as meaningless to you, you can be sure you | share one will with Him, and He with you. And you will also know you |
| W1:185.13 | share one will with Him, and He with you. And you will also know you | share one will with all your brothers, whose intent is yours. |
| W1:188.8 | bring them back to where they fall in line with all the thoughts we | share with God. We will not let them stray. We let the light within |
| W1:188.9 | of God still shines in us and from us to all living things that | share our life. We will forgive them all, absolving all the world of |
| W1:194.5 | he free, and all his glory shines upon a world made free with him to | share his holiness. |

| W2:WS.4 | us come daily to this holy place and spend a while together. Here we | share our final dream. It is a dream in which there is no sorrow, for |
| W2:231.2 | This is your will, my brother. And you | share this will with me, and with the One as well Who is our Father. |
| W2:239.2 | for the light that shines forever in us. And we honor it because You | share it with us. We are one, united in this light, and one with You, |

| W2:254.1 | to ask You for the truth. And truth is but Your Will, which I would | share with You today. |
| W2:264.1 | Itself. There is no Source but This, and nothing is that does not | share Its holiness, that stands beyond Your one creation or without |
| W2:269.2 | Today our sight is blessed indeed. We | share one vision as we look upon the face of Him Whose Self is ours. |
| W2:WIC.1 | Christ is God's Son as He created Him. He is the Self we | share, uniting us with one another and with God as well. He is the |
| W2:291.1 | us! And it is given us to recognize it is a holiness in which we | share; it is the holiness of God Himself. |
| W2:312.1 | And he cannot fail to look upon what Christ would have him see and | share Christ's love for what he looks upon. |
| W2:WICR.2 | by its extension. Thus His Son shares in creation and must therefore | share in power to create. What God has willed to be forever one will |
| W2:328.2 | Your will that I be wholly safe, eternally at peace. And happily I | share that will which You, my Father, gave as part of me. |
| W2:330.2 | And if we think we suffer, we but fail to know our one Identity we | share with You. We would return to It today, to be made free forever |
| W2:331.2 | Forgiveness shows us that God's Will is one and that we | share it. Let us look upon the holy sights forgiveness shows today |
| W2:339.2 | I do; requesting only what You offer me, accepting only thoughts You | share with me. |
| W2:344.1 | an empty place where nothing ever was or is or will be. Who can | share a dream? And what can an illusion offer me? Yet he whom I |

| W2:346.1 | of all things. And so begins the day I share with You as I will | share eternity, for time has stepped aside today. I do not seek the |
| W2:348.1 | I have no cause for anything except the perfect peace and joy I | share with You. What need have I for anger or for fear? Surrounding |
| W2:WAI.4 | that we have attained we call to all our brothers, asking them to | share our peace and consummate our joy. |
| W2:353.1 | to Christ to use in any way that best will serve the purpose that I | share with Him. Nothing is mine alone, for He and I have joined in |
| M:2.5 | and grow dim and disappear. Those who would learn the same course | share one interest and one goal. And thus he who was the learner |
| M:4.16 | need of them is just as great as theirs of Him. How joyous it is to | share the purpose of salvation! |
| M:12.1 | of Himself is based upon God's Judgment, not His own. Thus does He | share God's Will and bring His Thoughts to still deluded minds. He is |
| M:12.2 | is the world's need. Yet being joined in one purpose, and one they | share with God, how could they be separate from each other? What does |
| M:12.4 | and what is one is recognized as one. The teachers of God appear to | share the illusion of separation, but because of what they use the |
| M:16.1 | all that his role should be, this day and every day. And those who | share that role with him will find him, so they can learn the lessons |

| Tx:30.61 | this, for this is God's own purpose—only His, and yet completely | shared and perfectly fulfilled. The real world is a state in which |

| W1:132.13 | to give you fatherhood, not of illusions, but as God in truth. God | shares His Fatherhood with you who are His Son, for He makes no |

| Tx:7.13 | description of the inevitable outcomes of the revelation in terms of | sharing. A person conceives of himself as separate largely because he |
| Tx:7.46 | You cannot separate your self from your Creator, Who created you by | sharing His being with you. |

| Tx:7.93 | The Soul yearns to share its being as its Creator did. Created by | sharing, its will is to create. It does not wish to contain God but |

| Tx:8.31 | not will. I can offer you my will to make yours invincible by this | sharing, but I cannot oppose yours without competing with it and |
| Tx:8.38 | ours. To join with me is to restore His power to you, because we are | sharing it. I offer you only the recognition of His power in you, but |

| Tx:10.67 | that you have awakened with Him. Redemption is recognized only by | sharing it. |

| Tx:11.89 | their pupils all they know. The Holy Spirit wills only this, for | sharing the Father's love for His Son, He wills to remove all guilt |
| Tx:12.29 | as a meeting with your own past? For you are meeting no one, and the | sharing of salvation, which makes the encounter holy, is excluded |
| Tx:13.38 | capable of being wholly shared. It can also show you the results of | sharing while you still remember the results of not sharing. The Holy |
| Tx:13.38 | the results of sharing while you still remember the results of not | sharing. The Holy Spirit points quietly to the contrast, knowing that |

| Tx:14.31 | You cannot see alone. | Sharing perception with Him Whom God has given you teaches you how to |
| Tx:14.47 | In Heaven reality is shared and not reflected. By | sharing its reflection here, its truth becomes the only perception |
| Tx:14.57 | that this identity is shared. The miracle becomes the means of | sharing it. By supplying your identity wherever it is not recognized, |
| Tx:15.58 | vanishes as holiness is shared. For holiness is power, and by | sharing it, it gains in strength. If you seek for satisfaction in |
| Tx:15.59 | that God is an idea, and so your faith in Him is strengthened by | sharing. What you find difficult to accept is the fact that, like |

| Tx:28.47 | never share in Him. But who withdraws his mind from sharing them is | sharing Him. There is no other choice. Except you share it, nothing |
| Tx:28.48 | It is the | sharing of the evil dreams of hate and malice, bitterness and death, |

shift (51) | ||

| Tx:2.103 | undivided. The state does not imply more than a potential for a | shift of will. |
| Tx:5.16 | requires real understanding, because it is the point at which the | shift occurs. Finally, it points the way beyond the healing which it |
| Tx:5.17 | sequence should be quite familiar, because it is very similar to the | shift in time perception which the miracle introduces. The Holy |
| Tx:8.71 | it, it has not satisfied you. This is why the ego is forced to | shift from one end to another without ceasing, so that you will |
| Tx:9.42 | out of accord with its perception of you. This is when it will | shift abruptly from suspiciousness to viciousness, since its |
| Tx:9.53 | are untrue and are therefore on the same level. Being the level of | shift, it is experienced as shifting, and extremes are its essential |
| Tx:13.40 | You will not remember change and | shift in Heaven. You have need of contrast only here. Contrast and |
| Tx:15.48 | have some elements of fear in them. And this is why they | shift and change so frequently. They are not based on changeless love |
| Tx:15.85 | shining from them, so unlimited that they reach to God. It is this | shift in vision which is accomplished in the holy instant. Yet it is |
| Tx:15.85 | the holy instant. Yet it is needful for you to learn just what this | shift entails, so you will become willing to make it permanent. Given |
| Tx:15.95 | It is possible to do this all at once because there is but one | shift in perception that is necessary, for you made but one mistake. |
| Tx:17.46 | The temptation of the ego becomes extremely intense with this | shift in goals. For the relationship has not as yet been changed |
| Tx:17.47 | It would not be kinder to | shift the goal more slowly, for the contrast would be obscured and |
| Tx:17.47 | reinterpret each slow step according to its liking. Only a radical | shift in purpose could induce a complete change of mind about what |
| Tx:17.65 | no problem in any situation that faith will not solve. There is no | shift in any aspect of the problem but will make solution impossible. |

| Tx:18.91 | stand out and move about, actions seem real, and forms appear and | shift from loveliness to the grotesque. And back and forth they go, |
| Tx:19.30 | You see the line as broken, and as you | shift to different aspects of the spiral, the line looks different. |
| Tx:20.16 | The belief in sin is an adjustment. And an adjustment is a change; a | shift in perception or a belief that what was so before has been made |
| Tx:20.16 | reality. Knowledge requires no adjustment and in fact is lost if any | shift or change is undertaken. For this reduces it at once to mere |

| Tx:22.53 | makes the soft transition from means to end as easy as is the | shift from hate to gratitude before forgiving eyes. You will be |
| Tx:24.35 | But what they hold as purpose can be changed, and body states must | shift accordingly. Of itself the body can do nothing. See it as means |
| Tx:24.37 | This | shift in purpose does “endanger” specialness, but only in the sense |
| Tx:26.61 | kept separate. The healing of effect without the cause can merely | shift effects to other forms. And this is not release. God's Son |
| Tx:27.21 | because they hold him bound. And sickness is desired to prevent a | shift of balance in the sacrifice. How could the Holy Spirit be |
| Tx:27.55 | pain behind the pleasure will be felt no more. Sin's witnesses but | shift from name to name, as one steps forward and another back. Yet |
| Tx:29.15 | means? Stability to those who are confused is meaningless, and | shift and change become the law on which they predicate their lives. |
| Tx:30.86 | idea. And it is this idea of different goals which makes perception | shift and meaning change. In one united goal does this become |

| W1:128.7 | you looked at it before. Your whole perspective on the world will | shift by just a little every time you let your mind escape its |
| W1:140.8 | of sickness, for we seek a cure for all illusions, not another | shift among them. We will try today to find the source of healing, |
| W1:181.2 | and what you behold will change accordingly. Your vision now will | shift to give support to the intent which has replaced the one you |

| M:4.5 | a different light? He is not yet at a point at which he can make the | shift entirely internally. And so the plan will sometimes call for |
| M:12.6 | of God's teachers. They watch the dream figures come and go, | shift and change, suffer and die. Yet they are not deceived by what |

| Tx:9.40 | of everything it perceives, because its own perceptions are so | shifting. The ego is therefore capable of suspiciousness at best and |

| W1:R4.10 | now, for you are using time for its intended purpose. Let each word | shine with the meaning God has given it as it was given to you |
| W1:153.21 | of God can never fail because the love and strength and peace that | shine from them to all their brothers come from Him. These are His |
| W1:157.1 | in your calendar of days. It is a time Heaven has set apart to | shine upon and cast a timeless light upon this day when echoes of |
| W1:158.10 | whom you meet today provides another chance to let Christ's vision | shine on you and offer you the peace of God. |
| W1:165.2 | your mind with happiness and love. Eternity and everlasting life | shine in your mind because the Thought of God has left you not and |
| W1:187.10 | is on our lips. And as we look within, we see the purity of Heaven | shine in our reflection of our Father's Love. |

| W1:193.2 | is made true and beautiful enough to let the light of Heaven | shine upon it. It is He Who answers what His Son would contradict and |
| W2:232.1 | Be in my mind, my Father, when I wake and | shine on me throughout the day today. Let every minute be a time in |
| W2:237.1 | about myself. I will arise in glory and allow the light in me to | shine upon the world throughout the day. I bring the world the |
| W2:243.2 | We are one because each part contains Your memory, and truth must | shine in all of us as one. |
| W2:258.1 | nothing and do not exist. Shall we continue to allow God's grace to | shine in unawareness while the toys and trinkets of the world are |
| W2:332.1 | believing in its own futility. Yet with forgiveness does the light | shine through the dream of darkness, offering it hope and giving it |
| W2:333.1 | accorded it. For only then are its defenses lifted and the truth can | shine upon it as it disappears. |
| W2:333.2 | Father, forgiveness is the light You chose to | shine away all conflict and all doubt and light the way for our |
| W2:336.1 | away distortions and opens the hidden altar to the truth. Its lilies | shine into the mind and call it to return and look within, to find |

| Tx:16.23 | that you do not perceive the Sonship as one? And does it not also | show you that you do not regard yourself as one? For it is impossible |

| Tx:18.5 | as you begin to look at them. But nothing you have seen begins to | show you the enormity of the original error, which seemed to cast you |
| Tx:18.9 | have it be. Give Him but a little faith in each other, to help Him | show you that no substitute you made for Heaven can keep you from it. |
| Tx:18.18 | Dreams | show you that you have the power to make a world as you would have it |
| Tx:19.36 | Look upon your Redeemer and behold what He would | show you in each other, and let not sin arise again to blind your |
| Tx:19.39 | but you can see your brothers truly. And the light in them will | show you all that you need to see. When the peace in you has been |
| Tx:19.57 | for anyone, and death does not atone for sin. Yet you can live to | show it is not real. The body does appear to be the symbol of sin |
| Tx:20.46 | Nothing can | show the contrast better than the experience of both a holy and an |
| Tx:20.67 | will come to you at first in glimpses, but they will be enough to | show you what is given you who see your brother sinless. Truth is |
| Tx:20.76 | your nightmares into happy dreams; your wild hallucinations that | show you all the fearful outcomes of imagined sin into the calm and |
| Tx:21.11 | all as surely as all is joined in you. Accept the vision which can | show you this and not the body. You know the ancient song and know it |
| Tx:21.22 | seems to tell you what must happen, you gave reality. And what would | show you otherwise must therefore seem unreal. All that is asked of |
| Tx:21.49 | Perception is a witness but to this and never to reality. Yet it can | show you the conditions in which awareness of reality is possible or |
| Tx:22.6 | which look upon the world. If this is not your vision, what can it | show to you? The brain cannot interpret what your vision sees. This |
| Tx:22.9 | everyone sees only what he thinks he is. And what your sight would | show you, you will understand because it is the truth. Only your |
| Tx:22.14 | you thought was you is an illusion. And truth came instantly to | show you where your Self must be. It is denial of illusions that |
| Tx:22.36 | yours. Let not the vision of his holiness, the sight of which would | show you your forgiveness, be kept from you by what the body's eyes |
| Tx:23.1 | The sinless cannot fear, for sin of any kind is weakness. The | show of strength attack would use to cover frailty conceals it not, |
| Tx:24.16 | “enemy,” for it sees not what they would look upon, and it would | show them that the specialness they think they see is an illusion. |
| Tx:24.65 | it for? For in that choice lie both its health and harm. Save it for | show, as bait to catch another fish, to house your specialness in |
| Tx:25.57 | not attack the world he sees, but enter into it in quietness and | show him he is mad. This One but points to an alternative, another |
| Tx:25.59 | does sanity abide except in Him? The One Who speaks for Him can | show you this in the alternative He chose especially for you. It is |
| Tx:25.59 | the function that has been assigned to you in God's Own plan to | show His Sons that hell and Heaven are different, not the same. And |
| Tx:26.51 | clearly makes no sense at all. All that a hierarchy of illusions can | show is preference, not reality. What relevance has preference to the |
| Tx:27.3 | and prove his innocence. The picture of yourself you offer him you | show yourself and give it all your faith. The Holy Spirit offers you |
| Tx:27.6 | Show this unto your brother, who will see that every scar is healed | |
| Tx:27.7 | yet to both the message is the same. Adornment of the body seeks to | show how lovely are the witnesses for guilt. Concerns about the body |
| Tx:27.17 | nothing less to him than it has given unto you. So does your healing | show your mind is healed and has forgiven what he did not do. And so |
| Tx:27.18 | Brother, there is no death. And this you learn when you but wish to | show your brother that you had no hurt of him. He thinks your blood |
| Tx:27.18 | is on his hands, and so he stands condemned. Yet it is given you to | show him by your healing that his guilt is but the fabric of a |

| Tx:27.79 | its purpose. Though the dream itself takes many forms and seems to | show a great variety of places and events wherein its “hero” finds |
| Tx:28.22 | And it is but this the dream has put together and has offered him to | show him that his wishes have been done. Thus does he fear his own |
| Tx:28.22 | he is innocent of what he caused. The miracle does nothing but to | show him that he has done nothing. What he fears is cause without the |
| Tx:28.26 | there is no cause. Thus is the body healed by miracles because they | show the mind made sickness and employed the body to be victim or |
| Tx:30.13 | This cancels out the terms which you have set and lets the answer | show you what the question must have really been. |
| Tx:30.83 | meaning in what went before. What have you really done except to | show there was no meaning there? But you assigned a meaning in the |
| Tx:30.84 | is a judgment never justified. Its presence has no meaning but to | show you wrote a fearful script and are afraid accordingly. But not |
| Tx:30.92 | Reality is changeless. Miracles but | show what you have interposed between reality and your awareness is |
| Tx:31.48 | they cannot be perceived as errors, which the light would surely | show. You can be neither blamed for what you are, nor can you change |
| Tx:31.58 | make many concepts of the self as learning goes along. Each one will | show the changes in your own relationships as your perception of |
| W1:I.5 | to use them. It is their use which will give them meaning to you and | show you they are true. Remember only this—you need not believe |
| W1:28.5 | it and look upon it with a completely open mind. It has something to | show you—something beautiful and clean and of infinite value, full |
| W1:35.1 | you see yourself now. It does, however, describe what vision will | show you. It is difficult for anyone who thinks he is in this world |
| W1:43.9 | the eyes of forgiveness. I see the world as blessed. The world can | show me myself. I see my own thoughts, which are like God's. |
| W1:45.1 | that you think you see bears any resemblance to what vision will | show you. |
| W1:54.4 | awaken the real thoughts in them. And the world my real thoughts | show me will dawn on their sight as well as mine. |
| W1:54.6 | I am determined to see. I would look upon the witnesses that | show me the thinking of the world has been changed. I would behold |
| W1:55.2 | to see the witnesses to the truth in me, rather than those that | show me an illusion of myself. |
| W1:59.5 | in which I see. Let me welcome vision and the happy world it will | show me. |
| W1:75.9 | the world. He will be with you as you watch and wait. He will | show you what true vision sees. It is His Will, and you have joined |
| W1:85.2 | [69] My grievances hide the light of the world in me. My grievances | show me what is not there and hide from me what I would see. |
| W1:88.4 | This cannot | show me darkness, for the light has come. The light in you is all |
| W1:91.3 | doubt that the body's eyes can see. You do not doubt the images they | show you are reality. Your faith lies in the darkness, not the light. |
| W1:92.10 | seeing in the light, closing the body's eyes and asking truth to | show us how to find the meeting place of self and Self, where light |
| W1:99.20 | gently laid aside that Love may find Its rightful place in you and | show you that you are the Son of God. |
| W1:100.5 | instead of what has been assigned to you by God. Thus do you fail to | show the world how great the happiness He wills for you. And so you |
| W1:121.8 | learning will be not of you, but of the Teacher Who was given you to | show the way to you. Today we practice learning to forgive. If you |
| W1:130.12 | your range of choice to take the place of everything that hell would | show to you. All you need say to any part of hell, whatever form it |
| W1:139.7 | question that to ask what it must be is all the proof you need to | show that you believe the contradiction that you know not what you |
| W1:R4.5 | thoughts from being seen and recognized. Their purpose is to | show you something else and hold correction off through |
| W1:151.2 | Why but because of underlying doubt which you would hide with | show of certainty? |
| W1:154.7 | their part by their acceptance of His messages as for themselves and | show they understand the messages by giving them away. They choose no |
| W1:159.3 | can be mirrored there. The darkened glass the world presents can | show but twisted images in broken parts. The real world pictures |
| W1:160.6 | impossible. His way is lost except a miracle will search him out and | show him that he is no stranger now. The miracle will come. For in |
| W1:161.2 | it invent the partial world you see. The purpose of all seeing is to | show you what you wish to see. All hearing but brings to your mind |
| W1:163.8 | which they believed, they would be instantly released. And you will | show them this today. There is no death, and we renounce it now in |
| W1:166.7 | all reason, every evidence, and all the witnesses with proof to | show this is not you. You heed them not. You go on your appointed |
| W1:189.9 | knows His Son and knows the way to him. He does not need His Son to | show Him how to find His way. Through every opened door His love |
| W2:WF.5 | Do nothing, then, and let forgiveness | show you what to do through Him Who is your Guide, your Savior and |
| W2:269.1 | today. It is the means which You have chosen to become the way to | show me my mistakes and look beyond them. It is given me to find a |
| W2:303.1 | and let Him hear the sounds He understands and see but sights which | show His Father's Love. Let Him no longer be a stranger here, for He |
| W2:WIM.4 | see and does not understand. Yet faith will bring its witnesses to | show that what it rested on is really there. And thus the miracle |
| W2:WIM.4 | really there. And thus the miracle will justify your faith in it and | show it rested on a world more real than what you saw before—a |
| W2:WIM.5 | the world is green. And everywhere the signs of life spring up to | show that what is born can never die, for what has life has |
| W2:FL.4 | who can offer this to us? He is the way, the truth, and life that | show the way to us. In him resides salvation, offered us through our |
| M:14.4 | hard or easy. His Teacher points to it, and he trusts that He will | show him how to learn it. |
| M:22.6 | about himself is not the truth. It is your forgiveness that must | show him this. Healing is very simple. Atonement is received and |
| M:27.3 | held to obscure the sun. The grimness of the symbol is enough to | show it cannot co-exist with God. It holds an image of the Son of God |

| Tx:2.35 | to be consistent about this as yet. I have therefore concentrated on | showing you that the means are available whenever you ask. You can, |
| Tx:13.53 | The Holy Spirit, therefore, must begin His teaching by | showing you what you can never learn. His message is not indirect, |
| Tx:14.60 | from everything that you have taught yourselves in the past by | showing you only what you are now. Learning has been accomplished |
| Tx:19.83 | the first and fundamental principle in a course on miracles than by | showing you the one which seems to be the hardest can be accomplished |
| Tx:24.42 | hand that holds His brother's, and how lovingly He walks beside him, | showing him what can be seen and heard and where he will see nothing |
| Tx:26.6 | what you would sacrifice nor keep the Holy Spirit from His task of | showing you that it has not been lost. Hear then the song your |
| Tx:30.64 | but for you to join Him. Now that you have come, would He delay in | showing you the way that He must walk with you? His blessing lies on |
| Tx:30.90 | reality entails. The miracle attests salvation from appearances by | showing they can change. Your brother has a changelessness in him |
| W1:53.2 | [11] My meaningless thoughts are | showing me a meaningless world. Since the thoughts of which I am |
| W1:166.13 | of Christ there is another way for them to walk. Teach them by | showing them the happiness that comes to those who feel the touch of |
| W1:215.1 | only Guide. He walks with me in love. And I give thanks to Him for | showing me the way to go. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still |
| W2:293.1 | and safe and welcoming with all my past mistakes oppressing it and | showing me distorted forms of pain? Yet in the present, love is |
| W2:302.2 | Our Love awaits us as we go to Him and walks beside us, | showing us the way. He fails in nothing. He the end we seek, and He |

| W1:78.6 | your mind already. He will be the one of whom we ask God's Son be | shown to us. Through seeing him behind the grievances that we have |
| W1:78.10 | closed, and as you think of him who grieved you, let your mind be | shown the light in him beyond your grievances. What you have asked |
| W1:130.3 | in blind imaginings of panic born? What would you want that this is | shown to you? What would you wish to keep in such a dream? |
| W1:137.4 | as it has forever been. Yet eyes accustomed to illusions must be | shown that what they look upon is false. So healing, never needed by |

| W1:190.3 | And fear, denying love and using pain to prove that God is dead, has | shown that death is victor over life. The body is the Son of God, |

| Tx:8.62 | belief that part of it is physical, or not mind, is a fragmented (or | sick) interpretation. Mind cannot be made physical, but it can be |

| Tx:9.76 | it is the awareness that no one is separate, and so no one is | sick. To believe that a Son of God can be sick is to believe that |
| Tx:9.76 | separate, and so no one is sick. To believe that a Son of God can be | sick is to believe that part of God can suffer. Love cannot suffer, |
| Tx:9.77 | and remember your Creator with him? To believe a Son of God is | sick is to worship the same idol he does. God created love, not |
| Tx:9.77 | All forms of idolatry are caricatures of creation, taught by | sick minds which are too divided to know that creation shares power |
| Tx:9.78 | A | sick god must be an idol, made in the image of what its maker thinks |

| Tx:10.86 | yourself is to heal yourself, and you cannot perceive part of you as | sick and achieve your own goal. Brother, we heal together as we live |

| Tx:28.29 | that they are separate. And thus it is their joint decision to be | sick. If you withhold agreement and accept the part you play in |
| Tx:28.29 | as separate and apart from you. Thus is the body not perceived as | sick by both your minds, from separate points of view. Uniting with a |

| Tx:28.63 | to help the healing of God's Son, and for this purpose it cannot be | sick. It will not join a purpose not your own, and you have chosen |
| Tx:28.63 | not join a purpose not your own, and you have chosen that it not be | sick. All miracles are based upon this choice and given you the |
| Tx:28.63 | seems to be a form, yet it is one, as is its opposite. And you are | sick or well accordingly. |
| Tx:28.64 | be alone must mean you are apart, and if you are, you cannot but be | sick. This seems to prove that you must be apart. Yet all it means is |
| Tx:29.5 | what its health can tolerate and what will tire it and make it | sick. And its “inherent” weaknesses set up the limitations on what |
| Tx:29.6 | when to “love” and when to shrink more safely into fear. It will be | sick because you do not know what loving means. And so you must |
| Tx:29.17 | that it is not. Its nothingness is guarantee that it can not be | sick. In your demand that it be more than this lies the idea of |
| Tx:29.50 | what time is for. And speed the end of idols in a world made sad and | sick by seeing idols there. Your holy minds are altars unto God, and |
| Tx:31.29 | become its prisoner. And it grows old and dies because that mind is | sick within itself. Learning is all that causes change. And so the |

| Tx:12.63 | judgment enters, reality has slipped away. The out of mind is out of | sight because what is denied is there but is not recognized. Christ |
| Tx:12.71 | His guidance, you will travel light and journey lightly, for His | sight is ever on the journey's end which is His goal. God's Son is |
| Tx:13.5 | brings you nearer to the end of time by bringing healed and healing | sight into the darkness and enabling the world to see. For light must |
| Tx:13.5 | they wander in the darkness, and let Him gather them into His quiet | sight that makes them one. |
| Tx:13.65 | of the value of your guiltlessness and push it from your | sight. |
| Tx:14.8 | from every thought that would steal it away and keep it from his | sight. Bring innocence to light in answer to the call of the |
| Tx:14.8 | of guilt within which the Son of God has hidden himself from his own | sight. We are all joined in the Atonement here, and nothing else can |
| Tx:14.23 | to restore it. Therefore, keep no source of interference from His | sight, for He will not attack your sentinels. But bring them to Him, |
| Tx:14.28 | them both, for each denies the other. Apart, this fact is lost from | sight, for each in a separate place can be endowed with firm belief. |
| Tx:14.74 | for it is not His Will to do so. With your perfection ever in His | sight, He gives the gift of peace to everyone who perceives the need |
| Tx:15.90 | from love. What you invest in guilt, you withdraw from God. And your | sight grows weak and dim and limited, for you have attempted to |
| Tx:15.97 | be deceived by any form the ego takes to protect itself from your | sight. |
| Tx:16.3 | be done for you. Keep but one thought in mind and do not lose | sight of it, however tempted you may be to judge any situation and to |
| Tx:16.30 | will not offset it but will merely drive it underground and out of | sight. It is essential to bring it into sight and to make no attempt |
| Tx:16.30 | it underground and out of sight. It is essential to bring it into | sight and to make no attempt to hide it. For it is the attempt to |
| Tx:16.63 | crossed the bridge, the value of the body is so diminished in your | sight that you will see no need at all to magnify it. For you will |
| Tx:17.7 | joy has ever brought you even a little part of the happiness this | sight will bring you. For you will see the Son of God. You will |
| Tx:17.12 | All this beauty will rise to bless your | sight as you look upon the world with forgiving eyes. For forgiveness |
| Tx:17.15 | It is these shadow figures which would make the ego holy in your | sight and teach you what you do to keep it safe is really love. |
| Tx:17.21 | will so attract you that you will be unwilling ever to lose the | sight of it again. And you will let it transform the relationship so |
| Tx:17.53 | yourselves unable to express the holy instant, and thus you lose | sight of it. |
| Tx:18.8 | dancing in the wind, dipping and turning till they disappear from | sight, far, far outside you. And turn you to the stately calm within, |
| Tx:18.21 | dream, and one which you will share with all who come within your | sight. Through it, the blessing which the Holy Spirit has laid upon |
| Tx:18.60 | The “something” can be anything and anywhere—a sound, a | sight, a thought, a memory, and even a general idea without specific |
| Tx:18.64 | have you utterly forgotten the body. It has faded at times from your | sight, but it has not yet completely disappeared. You are not asked |
| Tx:18.85 | Give it back to Heaven. Heaven has not lost it, but you have lost | sight of Heaven. Let the Holy Spirit remove it from the withered |
| Tx:19.13 | you in the holiness you see, not through the body's eyes but in the | sight of Him Who joined you and in Whom you are united. Grace is not |
| Tx:19.14 | is nothing faith cannot forgive. No error interferes with its calm | sight, which brings the miracle of healing with equal ease to all of |
| Tx:19.34 | with Heaven's smile upon your lips and Heaven's blessing on your | sight. You will not see it long. For in the new perception, the mind |
| Tx:19.35 | now can see. The barriers to heaven will disappear before your holy | sight, for you who were sightless have been given vision, and you can |
| Tx:19.54 | you will see fear no more. The world will be transformed before your | sight, cleansed of all guilt and softly brushed with beauty. The |
| Tx:20.9 | they can see but thorns. Yet you have asked for and received another | sight. Those who accept the Holy Spirit's purpose as their own share |
| Tx:20.41 | it has no function, for minds need not the body to communicate. The | sight that sees the body has no use which serves the purpose of a |
| Tx:20.62 | unquestioned while the end is cherished. Vision adapts to wish, for | sight is always secondary to desire. And if you see the body, you |
| Tx:20.65 | look on sin. And thus it leads you to reality. Your holy brother, | sight of whom is your release, is no illusion. Attempt to see him not |
| Tx:20.71 | All is redeemed when looked upon with vision. For this is not your | sight, and brings with it the laws beloved of Him Whose sight it is. |
| Tx:20.71 | is not your sight, and brings with it the laws beloved of Him Whose | sight it is. |
| Tx:20.72 | place according to the laws brought to it by His calm and certain | sight. The end for everything He looks upon is always sure. For it |
| Tx:20.76 | All meaning that you give the world outside must thus reflect the | sight you saw within; or better, if you saw at all or merely judged |
| Tx:21.11 | This is the vision of the Son of God, whom you know well. Here is the | sight of him who knows his Father. Here is the memory of what you are |
| Tx:21.23 | is it possible to look within and see what must be there plainly in | sight and wholly independent of inference and judgment. Undoing is |
| Tx:21.37 | without one spot of sin upon it and in the innocence which makes the | sight of it as beautiful as Heaven. |
| Tx:21.38 | Your faith in sacrifice has given it great power in your | sight, except you do not realize you cannot see because of it. For |
| Tx:21.39 | they come with night and day, and so they must be joined. Yet | sight of one is but the sign the other has disappeared from sight. |
| Tx:21.39 | Yet sight of one is but the sign the other has disappeared from | sight. Nor is it possible that what gives light be one with what |
| Tx:21.48 | each other and remember the ego's weakness is revealed in both your | sight. What it would keep apart has met and joined, and looks upon |
| Tx:22.4 | Here is the faith in differences shifted to sameness. [And here is | sight of differences transformed to vision.] And reason now can lead |
| Tx:22.6 | vision such as this send back its messages? Surely not you, whose | sight is wholly independent of the eyes which look upon the world. If |
| Tx:22.7 | this “something else” which you have made to be yourself became your | sight. Yet it must be the “something else” which sees, and as not |
| Tx:22.7 | be the “something else” which sees, and as not you, explains its | sight to you. Your vision would, of course, render this quite |
| Tx:22.8 | body. This is the one emotion that opposes love and always leads to | sight of differences and loss of sameness. Here is the one emotion |
| Tx:22.9 | Your | sight was given you, along with everything that you can understand. |
| Tx:22.9 | you, for everyone sees only what he thinks he is. And what your | sight would show you, you will understand because it is the truth. |
| Tx:22.13 | in a language the body does not speak. Nor could it be a fearful | sight or sound that drew them gently into one. Rather, in each the |
| Tx:22.29 | meaning. Vision is sense, quite literally. If it is not the body's | sight, it must be understood. For it is plain, and what is obvious is |
| Tx:22.33 | that stands between you and the truth, is wholly true. Yet how can | sight which stops at nothingness as if it were a solid wall see |
| Tx:22.34 | the form to meaning. Nothing so blinding as perception of form. For | sight of form means understanding has been obscured. |
| Tx:22.36 | him whose holiness is yours. Let not the vision of his holiness, the | sight of which would show you your forgiveness, be kept from you by |
| Tx:22.41 | who looks upon the Christ in you but will rejoice. How beautiful the | sight you saw beyond the veil which you will bring to light the tired |
| Tx:22.42 | you make the other will gently have corrected for you, for in his | sight your loveliness is his salvation which he would protect from |
| Tx:22.57 | you cannot overlook? What form of suffering could block your | sight, preventing you from seeing past it? And what illusion could |
| Tx:23.5 | and timeless as eternity. Do not let time intrude upon your | sight of him. Leave him not frightened and alone in his temptation |
| Tx:23.10 | fought as an intruder on your peace is here transformed before your | sight into the giver of your peace. Your “enemy” was God Himself, to |
| Tx:23.26 | is the Will of God. From where all this begins, there is no | sight of help that can succeed. Only destruction can be the outcome. |
| Tx:23.27 | you must be worth having, just because they keep it hidden from your | sight. |
| Tx:23.44 | in any form, if only thus does it become impossible that you lose | sight of it? It can be kept shining before your vision, forever clear |
| Tx:23.44 | be kept shining before your vision, forever clear and never out of | sight if you defend it not. |
| Tx:24.12 | seen in another and maintained by searching for and keeping clear in | sight all lacks it can perceive. This does it seek, and this it looks |
| Tx:24.22 | you as one seem anything but Heaven and the hope of peace at last in | sight. |
| Tx:24.23 | giver and receiver. Not one glance from eyes it veils but looks on | sight of death. Not one believer in its potency but seeks for |
| Tx:24.25 | place of yours. How could this readiness be reached save through the | sight of all your misery and the awareness that your plan has failed |
| Tx:24.43 | specialness delight in but to kill? What does it seek for but the | sight of death? Where does it lead but to destruction? Yet think not |
| Tx:24.46 | one the gift of life that your forgiveness offers to your Self. The | sight of Christ is all there is to see. The song of Christ is all |
| Tx:24.54 | see in everything. And it is He they look for everywhere and find no | sight nor place nor time where He is not. Within your brother's |
| Tx:24.71 | provisions made for evidence beyond itself and no escape within its | sight. Its course is sure when seen through its own eyes. It grows |
| Tx:25.26 | of the world, nothing is seen but justifies forgiveness and the | sight of perfect sinlessness. Nothing arises but is met with instant |
| Tx:25.30 | on His vision sin cannot encroach, for sin has been corrected by His | sight. And thus it must have been an error, not a sin. For what it |
| Tx:25.41 | how great will be your joy, when he is free to offer you the gift of | sight God gave to him for you! He has no need but this—that you |
| Tx:25.43 | an arbiter of vengeance nor a punisher of sin. The kindness of his | sight rests on himself with all the tenderness it offers others. For |
| Tx:25.43 | heal and bless all those he looks on with the grace of God upon his | sight. |
| Tx:25.44 | grace of God upon your eyes and brings the gift of light that makes | sight possible. |
| Tx:25.55 | theirs is the way to sanity. But sin is equally insane within the | sight of love, whose gentle eyes would look beyond the madness and |
| Tx:25.57 | God appointed One as sane as He to raise a saner world to meet the | sight of everyone who chose insanity as his salvation. To this One is |
| Tx:25.76 | an injustice to them both, since they are equal in the Holy Spirit's | sight. Their Father gave the same inheritance to both. Who would have |
| Tx:25.81 | The | sight of innocence makes punishment impossible and justice sure. The |
| Tx:25.82 | eyes, but as God knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the | sight the Holy Spirit gives. |
| Tx:26.3 | of yourself, the body's loss would be a sacrifice indeed. For | sight of bodies becomes the sign that sacrifice is limited and |
| Tx:26.4 | Yet is it given him to make the world recede before his song and | sight of him replace the body's eyes. |
| Tx:26.6 | You can lose | sight of oneness, but can not make sacrifice of its reality. Nor can |
| Tx:26.16 | will see each little hurt resolved before the Holy Spirit's gentle | sight. For all of them are little in His sight and worth no more than |
| Tx:26.16 | the Holy Spirit's gentle sight. For all of them are little in His | sight and worth no more than just a tiny sigh before they disappear, |
| Tx:26.84 | stands now the risen Christ, and ancient scars are healed within His | sight. An ancient miracle has come to bless and to replace an ancient |
| Tx:27.20 | no more to suffer. For his innocence has been established in your | sight and his. And laughter will replace your sighs because God's Son |
| Tx:27.48 | gave. The holy instant's radiance will light your eyes and give them | sight to see beyond all suffering and see Christ's face instead. |
| Tx:27.49 | its witnesses to show the face of Christ to you who brought the | sight to them by which they witnessed it. The world of accusation is |
| Tx:27.74 | murder and there is no death. The dream of guilt is fading from your | sight, although your eyes are closed. A smile has come to lighten up |
| Tx:28.55 | It is indeed a senseless point of view to hold responsible for | sight a thing that cannot see and blame it for the sounds you do not |
| Tx:30.94 | But do not give it power to replace the changeless in him in your | sight of him. There is no false appearance but will fade if you |
| Tx:31.25 | and sureness of the road. A blindfold can indeed obscure your | sight but cannot make the way itself grow dark. And He Who travels |
| Tx:31.54 | meaning that was given it by you. It also shows some glimmering of | sight into perception's law that what you see reflects the state of |
| Tx:31.62 | Spirit, and all Heaven bends to touch your eyes and bless your holy | sight, that you may see the world of flesh no more except to heal and |
| Tx:31.63 | dust? Salvation is undoing of all this. And constancy arises in the | sight of those whose eyes salvation has released from looking at the |
| Tx:31.64 | ever be. You do not understand how what you see arose to meet your | sight. For if you did, it would be gone. The veil of ignorance is |
| Tx:31.66 | changed. Are you invulnerable? Then the world is harmless in your | sight. Do you forgive? Then is the world forgiving, for you have |
| Tx:31.69 | too confused about yourself. But should one brother dawn upon your | sight as wholly worthy of forgiveness, then your concept of yourself |
| Tx:31.70 | upon the good in him, the body grows decreasingly persistent in your | sight and will at length be seen as little more than just a shadow |
| Tx:31.70 | your concept of yourself, when you have reached the world beyond the | sight your eyes alone can offer you to see. For you will not |
| Tx:31.70 | what you see without the Aid that God has given you. And in His | sight there is another world. |
| Tx:31.74 | shield, a silent barricade before the truth, and hides it from your | sight. All things you see are images because you look on them as |
| Tx:31.74 | images because you look on them as through a barrier which dims your | sight and warps your vision, so that you behold nothing with clarity. |
| Tx:31.74 | hell, for fear is hell. All that is given you is for release—the | sight, the vision, and the inner Guide all lead you out of hell with |
| Tx:31.75 | is the concept of himself laid by, for nothing stands between his | sight and what he looks upon to judge what he beholds. And in this |
| Tx:31.75 | light where darkness was before, and now the veil is lifted from his | sight. |
| Tx:31.76 | the body as yourself, for you are bound to separation from the | sight of him who holds the mirror to another view of what he is and |
| Tx:31.88 | is powerless before His majesty and disappears before His holy | sight. The saviors of the world who see like Him are merely those who |
| Tx:31.94 | loveliness which they concealed appear like lawns of Heaven to our | sight to lift us high above the thorny roads we traveled on before |
| W1:I.3 | undoing of what you see now and the second with the restoration of | sight. It is recommended that each exercise be repeated several times |
| W1:4.2 | you are aware are but shadows of what lies beyond, and shadows make | sight difficult. The “bad” ones are blocks to sight and make seeing |
| W1:4.2 | and shadows make sight difficult. The “bad” ones are blocks to | sight and make seeing impossible. You do not want either. |
| W1:20.1 | has been intentional and very carefully planned. We have not lost | sight of the crucial importance of the reversal of your thinking. The |
| W1:30.3 | you do see now or could see now if it were within the range of your | sight. |
| W1:36.1 | because your mind is part of God's. And because you are holy, your | sight must be holy as well. “Sinless” means without sin. You cannot |
| W1:36.1 | you must be sinless or a part of His Mind would be sinful. Your | sight is related to His holiness, not to your ego and therefore not |
| W1:46.10 | may vary considerably, but the central idea should not be lost | sight of. You might say, for example: |
| W1:54.4 | in them. And the world my real thoughts show me will dawn on their | sight as well as mine. |
| W1:75.3 | beginning of the new. No shadows from the past remain to darken our | sight and hide the world forgiveness offers us. Today we will accept |
| W1:75.4 | the real world rises before us in gladness, to be seen at last. | Sight is given us, now that the light has come. |
| W1:75.9 | Understand that the Holy Spirit never fails to give the gift of | sight to the forgiving. Believe He will not fail you now. You have |
| W1:75.11 | the Love of God. Rejoice in the power of forgiveness to heal your | sight completely. Be confident that on this day there is a new |
| W1:75.15 | today, as we celebrate the beginning of your vision and the | sight of the real world which has come to replace the unforgiven |
| W1:78.2 | the miracle instead. We will reverse the way you see by not allowing | sight to stop before it sees. We will not wait before the shield of |
| W1:78.3 | light where each one stood before. For every grievance is a block to | sight, and as it lifts, you see the Son of God where he has always |
| W1:78.11 | and look upon your shining savior. No dark grievances obscure the | sight of him. You have allowed the Holy Spirit to express through him |
| W1:81.5 | will my function stand clear and perfectly unambiguous before my | sight. My acceptance does not depend on my recognizing what my |
| W1:85.4 | Let me not use this as a block to | sight. The light of the world will shine all this away. I have no |
| W1:92.8 | it cannot give but to itself. No one can ask in vain to share its | sight, and none who enters its abode can leave without a miracle |
| W1:92.10 | unto your Self. Its strength will be the light in which the gift of | sight is given you. Leave, then, the dark a little while today, and |
| W1:92.11 | can the idea for today and recognize that we are being introduced to | sight and led away from darkness to the light, where only miracles |
| W1:97.5 | and Which calls through His Voice to every living thing; offers His | sight to everyone who asks; replaces error with the simple truth. |
| W1:104.8 | belong to us as His eternal gifts. We will not let ourselves lose | sight of them between the times we come to seek for them where He has |
| W1:124.11 | love you cannot understand, a joy too deep for you to comprehend, a | sight too holy for the body's eyes to see, and yet you can be sure |
| W1:128.3 | yourself. All things you seek to make your value greater in your | sight limit you further, hide your worth from you, and add another |
| W1:130.12 | part of hell as real, and you have damned your eyes and cursed your | sight, and what you will behold is hell indeed. Yet the release of |
| W1:154.15 | we do not share, our many gifts from our Creator will spring to our | sight and leap into our hands, and we will understand what we |
| W1:156.7 | little interval of doubt which still remains, you may perhaps lose | sight of your Companion, and mistake Him for the senseless, ancient |
| W1:159.4 | they are one in Heaven. Christ beholds no sin in anyone, and in His | sight the sinless are as one. Their holiness was given by His Father |
| W1:160.10 | his brother is denying Him and thus refusing to accept the gift of | sight by which his Self is clearly recognized, his home remembered, |
| W1:161.6 | You have many times been urged to look beyond the body, for its | sight presents the symbol of love's “enemy” Christ's vision does not |
| W1:161.9 | Yet you will take his hand instead, for you are like him in the | sight that sees him thus. |
| W1:161.12 | Then think of this—what you are seeing now conceals from you the | sight of one who can forgive you all your sins, whose sacred hands |
| W1:162.4 | thus you learn to think with God. Christ's vision has restored your | sight by salvaging your mind. |
| W1:164.1 | now, we come to look upon what is forever there—not in our | sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks past time and sees |
| W1:164.2 | The world fades easily away before His | sight. Its sounds grow dim. A melody from far beyond the world |
| W1:164.3 | How holy is your practicing today, as Christ gives you His | sight and hears for you and answers in your name the call He hears. |
| W1:164.7 | joy because its holiness reflects our own. We stand forgiven in the | sight of Christ, with all the world forgiven in our own. |
| W1:165.5 | you now to let it fade away from your ecstatic vision? For this | sight proves that you have exchanged your blindness for the seeing |
| W1:166.11 | live, for now we cannot die. The wish for death is answered, and the | sight that looked upon it now has been replaced by vision which |
| W1:181.2 | on, are witnesses to sins in you. And you will not transcend their | sight and see the sinlessness that lies beyond. |
| W1:181.5 | a brother's sins occur to us, our narrowed focus will restrict our | sight and turn our eyes upon our own mistakes, which we will magnify |
| W1:182.12 | have made. And now the way is open, and the journey has an end in | sight at last. Be still a moment and go home with Him, and be at |
| W1:184.13 | One Name we bring into our practicing. One Name we use to unify our | sight. |
| W1:184.14 | kept us blind. And we are given strength to see beyond them. Now our | sight is blessed with blessings we can give as we receive. |
| W1:187.11 | it be withheld from anything we look upon. And to ensure this holy | sight is ours, we offer it to everything we see. For where we see it, |
| W1:188.2 | difficult to look within, for there all vision starts. There is no | sight, be it of dreams or from a truer source, that is not but the |
| W1:188.6 | within you is sufficient. It alone has power to give the gift of | sight to you. Exclude the outer world and let your thoughts fly to |
| W1:189.1 | to look upon. It was not placed in you to be kept hidden from your | sight. This light is a reflection of the thought we practice now. To |
| W1:189.6 | tenderness, Its Love Which knows us perfect as Itself, Its | sight which is the gift Its Love bestows on us. We learn the way |
| W1:191.2 | remains. You look on chaos and proclaim it as yourself. There is no | sight that fails to witness this to you. There is no sound that does |
| W1:192.6 | you will indeed perceive that for Christ's vision and the gift of | sight no sacrifice was asked, and only pain was lifted from a sick |
| W1:193.2 | he sees them. Thus he has a need for One Who can correct his erring | sight and give him vision that will lead him back to where perception |
| W1:194.1 | encompasses, it sets you down just short of Heaven, with the goal in | sight and obstacles behind. Your foot has reached the lawns that |
| W1:198.14 | of the Son, so brief that not an instant stands between this single | sight and timelessness itself, you see the vision of yourself and |
| W1:198.15 | end of everything that yet would stand between this vision and our | sight. And we are glad that we have come this far and recognize that |
| W2:WIW.4 | As | sight was made to lead away from truth, it can be redirected. Sounds |
| W2:247.1 | means whereby Christ's vision comes to me. Let me accept what His | sight shows me as the simple truth and I am healed completely. |
| W2:266.1 | You gave me all Your Sons to be my saviors and my counselors in | sight—the bearers of Your holy Voice to me. In them are You |
| W2:266.2 | He has filled the world with those who point to Him and given us the | sight to look on them? |
| W2:268.2 | Let not our | sight be blasphemous today nor let our ears attend to lying tongues. |
| W2:269.1 | I ask Your blessing on my | sight today. It is the means which You have chosen to become the way |
| W2:269.2 | Today our | sight is blessed indeed. We share one vision as we look upon the face |
| W2:270.1 | it has power to translate all that the body's eyes behold into the | sight of a forgiven world. How glorious and gracious is this world! |
| W2:270.1 | gracious is this world! Yet how much more will I perceive in it than | sight can give. The world forgiven signifies Your Son acknowledges |
| W2:270.2 | will come to everyone. Christ is our eyes today. And through His | sight, we offer healing to the world through Him, the holy Son whom |
| W2:271.1 | seek the witnesses to what is true in God's creation. In Christ's | sight, the world and God's creation meet, and as they come together, |
| W2:271.1 | and as they come together, all perception disappears. His kindly | sight redeems the world from death. For nothing that He looks on but |
| W2:289.1 | Unless the past is over in my mind, the real world must escape my | sight. For I am really looking nowhere, seeing but what is not there. |
| W2:290.1 | this very day. What I perceive without God's own correction for the | sight I made is frightening and painful to behold. Yet I would not |
| W2:291.1 | Christ's vision looks through me today. His | sight shows me all things forgiven and at peace and offers this same |
| W2:293.2 | Father, let not Your holy world escape my | sight today. Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns of gratitude |
| W2:298.1 | am I restored to my reality at last. All that intruded on my holy | sight forgiveness takes away. And I draw near the end of senseless |
| W2:302.1 | our eyes are opening at last. Your holy world awaits us, as our | sight is finally restored and we can see. We thought we suffered. But |
| W2:304.1 | I can obscure my holy | sight if I intrude my world upon it. Nor can I behold the holy sights |
| W2:WILJ.1 | as true, projected from a now corrected mind. And with this holy | sight, perception gives a silent blessing and then disappears, its |
| W2:WILJ.2 | purposeless. Without a cause and now without a function in Christ's | sight, it merely slips away to nothingness. There it was born, and |
| W2:312.1 | How surely, therefore, must the real world come to greet the holy | sight of anyone who takes the Holy Spirit's purpose as his goal for |
| W2:313.1 | is Your gift. The eyes of Christ look on a world forgiven. In His | sight are all its sins forgiven, for He sees no sin in anything He |
| W2:313.2 | Let us today behold each other in the | sight of Christ. How beautiful we are! How holy and how loving! |
| W2:WIM.3 | look upon in mercy and in love. Perception stands corrected in His | sight, and what was meant to curse has come to bless. Each lily of |
| M:3.2 | of the most casual encounter, it is possible for two people to lose | sight of separate interests, if only for a moment. That moment will |
| M:13.2 | associates itself with the body, obscuring its identity and losing | sight of what it really is. |

| Tx:5.26 | an evaluation because it is a decision. The decision itself is very | simple. It is made on the basis of which call is worth more to you. |
| Tx:6.17 | The message of the crucifixion is [very | simple and] perfectly clear: |
| Tx:6.37 | use of projection and projection as the Holy Spirit uses it is very | simple. The ego projects to exclude and therefore to deceive. The |
| Tx:6.59 | of this could be included in only three words: “Do only that!” This | simple statement is perfectly clear, easily understood, and very |
| Tx:8.50 | the joy of the Holy Trinity. You do not understand this for a very | simple reason. You who are God's own treasure do not regard |

| Tx:10.34 | of the dawn of light. Remember also that the denial of this | simple fact takes many forms, and these you must learn to recognize |

| Tx:10.74 | This is a very | simple course. Perhaps you do not feel that a course which, in the |
| Tx:10.77 | problem which God has answered. Ask yourselves, therefore, but one | simple question— |
| Tx:10.85 | be beyond your healing power because nothing will be denied your | simple request. What problems will not disappear in the presence of |

| Tx:11.7 | How | simple, then, is God's plan for salvation. There is but one response |
| Tx:13.47 | to be clearly seen. Let us now turn away from them and follow the | simple logic by which the Holy Spirit teaches you the simple |
| Tx:13.47 | and follow the simple logic by which the Holy Spirit teaches you the | simple conclusions that speak for truth and only truth. |
| Tx:13.53 | never learn. His message is not indirect, but He must introduce the | simple truth into a thought system which has become so twisted and so |
| Tx:13.56 | that you have woven out of it. Nothing is so alien to you as the | simple truth, and nothing are you less inclined to listen to. The |
| Tx:13.57 | The | simple and the obvious are not apparent to those who would make |
| Tx:13.58 | where it belongs. You will find no deception there but only the | simple truth. And you will love it because you will understand it. |
| Tx:13.60 | it has been. Be glad it is undone, for when you look at it in | simple honesty, it is undone. We said before, “Be not content with |
| Tx:13.62 | you. For truth is true. What else could ever be or ever was? This | simple lesson holds the key to the dark door which you believe is |

| Tx:13.71 | The way to teach this | simple lesson is merely this: guiltlessness is invulnerability. |
| Tx:13.73 | guilt is self-protection.] And they will fail to understand the | simple fact that what they do not want must hurt them. |
| Tx:14.51 | do that which requires no judgment of your own. The answer is very | simple. The power of God, and not of you, engenders miracles. The |
| Tx:14.64 | you have taught yourselves. How would you know? Your part is very | simple. You need only recognize that everything you learned you do |
| Tx:15.39 | on willingness and not on time. The reason why this course is | simple is that truth is simple. Complexity is of the ego and is |
| Tx:15.39 | not on time. The reason why this course is simple is that truth is | simple. Complexity is of the ego and is nothing more than the ego's |

| Tx:15.40 | because you prefer not to recognize it and not to let it go. The | simple reason, simply stated, is this: The holy instant is a time in |
| Tx:15.100 | decision just as it is that makes the decision so easy! Salvation is | simple, being of God and therefore very easy to understand. Do not |
| Tx:15.101 | choice between them is nothing more than a gentle awakening and as | simple as opening your eyes to daylight when you have no more need of |
| Tx:16.7 | hurt one will hurt the other. Foolish requests are foolish for the | simple reason that they conflict because they contain an element of |
| Tx:16.56 | Salvation lies in the | simple fact that illusions are not fearful because they are not true. |
| Tx:16.56 | you are denying truth, and so are making yourself unable to make the | simple choice between truth and illusion, God and fantasy. Remember |
| Tx:16.58 | How | simple does this choice become when it is perceived as only what it |

| Tx:18.36 | must first atone, but only to those who offer it nothing more than | simple willingness to make way for it. Purification is of God alone |
| Tx:18.86 | How is this done? It is extremely | simple, being based on what this little kingdom really is. The barren |
| Tx:20.19 | A | simple question yet remains and needs an answer. Do you like what you |
| Tx:20.46 | sunlight, open-eyed and calm, in smiling welcome and in sincerity so | simple and so obvious it cannot be misunderstood. But idols do not |
| Tx:20.58 | goal will come from the same Source as does His purpose. Being so | simple and direct, this course has nothing in it that is not |

| Tx:21.13 | the crucifixion is changed to resurrection. And being true, it is so | simple that it cannot fail to be completely understood. Rejected yes, |
| Tx:21.51 | Self in you. This other Self sees miracles as natural. They are as | simple and natural to It as breathing to the body. They are the |
| Tx:21.52 | it. Like all that stems from reason, the basic question is obvious, | simple, and remains unasked. But think not reason could not answer it. |
| Tx:21.54 | God's plan is | simple—never circular and never self-defeating. He has no Thoughts |
| Tx:25.74 | and recognized. For just one witness is enough if he sees truly. | Simple justice asks no more. Of each one does the Holy Spirit ask if |
| Tx:25.75 | and not his sin. How little need you give the Holy Spirit that | simple justice may be given you! |
| Tx:26.18 | decide? For it is conflict that makes choice [complex]. The truth is | simple—it is one, without an opposite. And how could strife enter |

| Tx:26.34 | to notice it had come. What disappeared too quickly to affect the | simple knowledge of the Son of God can hardly still be there for you |
| Tx:26.85 | question of the size of the confusion or how much it interferes. Its | simple presence shuts the door to Theirs and keeps Them there unknown. |
| Tx:26.89 | it purposeless, without the function that the Holy Spirit sees. And | simple justice has been thus denied to every living thing upon the |
| Tx:27.12 | The | simple way to let this be achieved is merely this—to let the body |
| Tx:27.37 | here their answer is. [And where its answer is, a problem must be | simple and be easily resolved.] It must be pointless to attempt to |
| Tx:27.38 | is no answer there that could be found. Nowhere outside a single | simple question is ever asked. The world can only ask a double |
| Tx:27.63 | up. How could there be another way to solve a problem which is very | simple but has been obscured by heavy clouds of complication which |
| Tx:27.63 | when clearly seen. No one has difficulty making up his mind to let a | simple problem be resolved if it is seen as hurting him and also very |
| Tx:27.87 | Whatever hurt you bring to Him He will make answer with this very | simple truth. For this one answer takes away the cause of every form |
| Tx:27.87 | what their form. And you will understand that miracles reflect the | simple statement, |
| Tx:28.28 | we must begin. And having started, will the way be made serene and | simple in the rising up to waking and the ending of the dream. When |
| Tx:28.46 | want to have the “benefits” of sickness when he has received the | simple happiness of health? What God has given cannot be a loss, and |
| Tx:29.10 | because you see it as the road to hell instead of looking on it as a | simple way, without a sacrifice or any loss, to find yourself in |
| Tx:30.14 | promise you a happy day. Yet this decision still can be undone by | simple methods which you can accept. |
| Tx:30.29 | That is really all. The first rule, then, is not coercion but a | simple statement of a simple fact. You will not make decisions by |
| Tx:30.29 | The first rule, then, is not coercion but a simple statement of a | simple fact. You will not make decisions by yourself whatever you |
| Tx:30.54 | but deceive the mind that wants to be deceived. And you can make a | simple choice that will forever place you far beyond deception. You |
| Tx:30.54 | changes have been quickly brought about when you decide one very | simple thing—you do not want whatever you believe an idol gives. |
| Tx:30.80 | by your wish to make illusions real. And what is this except a | simple statement of the truth? |
| Tx:31.1 | How | simple is salvation! All it says is what was never true is not true |
| Tx:31.1 | if you become confused. Why then do you persist in learning not such | simple things? |
| Tx:31.2 | There is a reason. But confuse it not with difficulty in the | simple things salvation asks you learn. It teaches but the very |
| Tx:31.3 | overlearned and fixed they rise like heavy curtains to obscure the | simple and the obvious. Say not you cannot learn them. For your power |
| Tx:31.4 | the Son of God is guilty, say not that you cannot learn the | simple things salvation teaches you! |
| Tx:31.5 | for your learning skill the Holy Spirit sees in all the world. His | simple lessons in forgiveness have a power mightier than yours |
| Tx:31.6 | strange in outcome and incredible in difficulty, will withstand the | simple lessons being taught to you in every moment of each day, since |

| W1:80.3 | you remember this. One problem—one solution. Accept the peace this | simple statement brings. |
| W1:80.8 | be determined to be free of problems that do not exist. The means is | simple honesty. Do not deceive yourself about what the problem is, |

| W1:133.13 | Complexity is nothing but a screen of smoke which hides the very | simple fact that no decision can be difficult. |
| W1:133.17 | some difficult decisions facing you, be quick to answer with this | simple thought: |
| W1:134.8 | the undeceiver in the face of lies, the great restorer of the | simple truth. By its ability to overlook what is not there, it opens |
| W1:134.9 | this gift of you, the door is open to yourself. There is a very | simple way to find the door to true forgiveness and perceive it open |
| W1:135.26 | receiving what you will receive today. And in the light and joy of | simple truth, you will but wonder why you ever thought that you must |
| W1:136.13 | Such is the | simple truth. It does not make appeal to might nor triumph. It does |
| W1:137.4 | happened. To be healed is merely to accept what always was the | simple truth and always will remain exactly as it has forever been. |
| W1:137.7 | must replace the fantasies of sickness which you hold before the | simple truth. When sickness has been seen to disappear in spite of |
| W1:139.1 | this one. There is no conflict that does not entail the single | simple question, “What am I?” |
| W1:155.2 | behind the truth and let the truth stand forth as what it is, is | simple sanity. |
| W1:155.3 | This is the | simple choice we make today. The mad illusion will remain awhile in |
| W1:155.3 | their madness, but who still can look beyond illusion to the | simple truth in them. |
| W1:156.1 | Today's idea but states the | simple truth that makes the thought of sin impossible. It promises |
| W1:161.1 | fears may disappear and offer room to love. Here is salvation in the | simple words in which we practice today's idea. Here is the answer to |
| W1:182.2 | is illusion, not to be considered more than but a dream. Yet who in | simple honesty, without defensiveness and self-deception, would deny |
| W1:192.1 | in its own terms. For who can understand a language far beyond his | simple grasp? |
| W1:192.5 | Forgiveness lets the body be perceived as what it is—a | simple teaching aid to be laid by when learning is complete, but |
| W1:192.9 | Release instead of bind, for thus are you made free. The way is | simple. Every time you feel a stab of anger, realize you hold a sword |
| W1:193.7 | is this sameness which makes learning sure because the lesson is so | simple that it cannot be rejected in the end. No one can hide forever |
| W1:193.7 | is recognized as easily in all of them if one but wants to see the | simple lesson there. |
| W1:193.12 | you now renounce your own salvation? Would you fail to learn the | simple lessons Heaven's Teacher sets before you that all pain may |
| W1:198.5 | And is it not a kindness to yourself to hear His Voice and learn the | simple lessons He would teach, instead of trying to dismiss His words |
| W1:200.11 | will we accept and want. Peace be to us today. For we have found a | simple, happy way to leave the world of ambiguity and to replace our |
| W1:R6.5 | that clutters up the mind and makes it deaf to reason, sanity, and | simple truth. |
| W2:I.3 | and calm our minds at need. Yet we will not content ourselves with | simple practicing in the remaining holy instants which conclude the |
| W2:I.3 | instants which conclude the year that we have given God. We say some | simple words of welcome and expect our Father to reveal Himself as He |
| W2:247.1 | vision comes to me. Let me accept what His sight shows me as the | simple truth and I am healed completely. Brother, come and let me |
| W2:297.1 | I want, and everything I give I give myself. This is salvation's | simple formula. And I, who would be saved, would make it mine to be |

| Tx:I.3 | This course can therefore be summed up very | simply in this way: |

| Tx:8.98 | inevitable, attempts to teach himself to like it. The truth is, very | simply, that no one wants either abandonment or retaliation. Many |
| Tx:9.14 | Forgiveness through the Holy Spirit lies | simply in looking beyond error from the beginning and thus keeping it |
| Tx:9.32 | in His giving. This is not because He limits His giving, but | simply because you have limited your receiving. The will to receive |
| Tx:9.35 | You are not yet awake, but you can learn how to awaken. Very | simply the Holy Spirit teaches you to awaken others. As you see them |
| Tx:9.44 | with unwillingness to know and produces a total lack of knowledge | simply because knowledge is total. Not to question your littleness, |

| Tx:10.8 | creation nor upon those who create like Him. You do not know this | simply because you have tried to limit what He created, and so you |
| Tx:10.49 | attacked truth, you are believing that attack has power. Very | simply, then, you have become afraid of yourself. And no one wills to |
| Tx:11.36 | one proviso—do not find it. Its dictates, then, can be summed up | simply as, “Seek and do not find.” This is the one promise the ego |
| Tx:11.99 | is real, there is no way to overcome it. The Holy Spirit dispels it | simply through the calm recognition that it has never been. As He |
| Tx:13.57 | crowns because of them. All this the Holy Spirit sees and teaches | simply that all this is not true. To these unhappy learners who would |
| Tx:13.75 | you alone can offer yourself, when He Who gives you everything will | simply offer it to you? He will never ask what you have done to make |
| Tx:14.19 | Death yields to life | simply because destruction is not true. The light of guiltlessness |
| Tx:15.40 | prefer not to recognize it and not to let it go. The simple reason, | simply stated, is this: The holy instant is a time in which you |
| Tx:15.53 | substitutes His frame of reference for it. His frame of reference is | simply God. The Holy Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the |
| Tx:15.95 | same idea, and one you do not want, they go together. The idea is | simply this—you believe that it is possible to be host to the ego |
| Tx:16.44 | Very | simply, the attempt to make guilty is always directed against God. |
| Tx:16.57 | The core of the separation delusion lies | simply in the fantasy of destruction of love's meaning. And unless |
| Tx:16.58 | you and also the only one. You will cross the bridge into reality | simply because you will recognize that God is on the other side and |
| Tx:17.3 | deal with them only because you would keep them from truth. Very | simply, your lack of faith in the power that heals all pain arises |
| Tx:17.11 | The real world is attained | simply by the complete forgiveness of the old, the world you see |
| Tx:17.25 | Thought systems are but true or false, and all their attributes come | simply from what they are. Only the Thoughts of God are true. And all |
| Tx:17.29 | real relationships even in this world which you do not recognize | simply because you have raised their substitutes to such predominance |
| Tx:17.58 | in which you are uncertain, the first thing to consider, very | simply, is, “What do I want to come of this? What is it for?” The |
| Tx:17.60 | The value of deciding in advance what you want to happen is | simply that you will perceive the situation as a means to make it |
| Tx:17.74 | not forced any exclusion on it. It is a situation of perfect peace | simply because you have let it be what it is. |
| Tx:18.24 | hide from truth forever in complete insanity. What you forgot was | simply that God cannot destroy Himself. The light is in you. Darkness |

| Tx:18.61 | is no violence at all in this escape. The body is not attacked, but | simply properly perceived. It does not limit you merely because you |
| Tx:18.62 | but merely by a quiet “melting in.” For peace will join you there | simply because you have been willing to let go the limits you have |
| Tx:19.90 | would you feel and think if death held no attraction for you? Very | simply, you would remember your Father. The Creator of life, the |
| Tx:21.20 | this little offering. Look closer, then, at what it is. And very | simply see in it the whole exchange of separation for salvation. All |

| Tx:21.61 | You do not leave insanity by going somewhere else. You leave it | simply by accepting reason where madness was. Madness and reason see |
| Tx:21.78 | as you look on the effects of sin in any form, all you need do is | simply ask yourself, |
| Tx:24.67 | The test of everything on earth is | simply this: “What is it for?” The answer makes it what it is for |
| Tx:25.10 | you beyond them to the truth that is beyond them. All this can very | simply be reduced to this: |

| Tx:5.64 | The ego does not perceive sin as a lack of love. It perceives | sin as a positive act of assault. This is an interpretation which is |
| Tx:5.64 | is necessary to the ego's survival, because as soon as you regard | sin as a lack you will automatically attempt to remedy the situation. |

| Tx:19.80 | From the ego came | sin and guilt and death, in opposition to life and innocence and to |
| Tx:19.80 | the peace of Heaven? One thing is sure—God, Who created neither | sin nor death, wills not that you be bound by them. He knows of |
| Tx:19.80 | nor death, wills not that you be bound by them. He knows of neither | sin nor its results. The shrouded figures in the funeral procession |

| Tx:20.38 | Each herald of eternity sings of the end of | sin and fear. Each speaks in time of what is far beyond it. Two |
| Tx:20.55 | The body is the ego's idol; the belief in | sin made flesh and then projected outward. This produces what seems |
| Tx:20.59 | of discomfort that follows the sudden change in a relationship from | sin to holiness should now be almost over. To the extent you still |
| Tx:20.61 | For holiness is merely the result of letting the effects of | sin be lifted so what was always true is recognized. To see a sinless |
| Tx:20.62 | The unholy instant is the time of bodies. But the purpose here is | sin. It cannot be attained but in illusion, and so the illusion of a |
| Tx:20.63 | see him as sinful; he does not see him at all. In the darkness of | sin, he is invisible. He can but be imagined in the darkness, and it |
| Tx:20.63 | in unholy relationships with other bodies, serving the cause of | sin an instant before he dies. |
| Tx:20.64 | the goal is valued. And judgment has no value unless the goal is | sin. |
| Tx:20.65 | How can a holy relationship achieve its purpose through the means of | sin? Judgment you taught yourself; vision is learned from Him Who |
| Tx:20.65 | teaching. His vision cannot see the body because it cannot look on | sin. And thus it leads you to reality. Your holy brother, sight of |
| Tx:20.72 | and suited perfectly to meet it. Destructiveness becomes benign, and | sin is turned to blessing under His gentle gaze. What can the body's |
| Tx:20.72 | the body's eyes perceive, with power to correct? Its eyes adjust to | sin, unable to overlook it in any form and seeing it everywhere, in |
| Tx:20.73 | up? What if you realized that those who seem to walk about in it, to | sin and die, attack and murder and destroy themselves, are wholly |
| Tx:20.75 | Only two purposes are possible. And one is | sin, the other holiness. Nothing is in between, and which you choose |
| Tx:20.75 | means by which the outside world, projected from within, adjusts to | sin and seems to witness to its reality. It still is true that |
| Tx:20.76 | hallucinations that show you all the fearful outcomes of imagined | sin into the calm and reassuring sights with which He would replace |
| Tx:20.76 | purpose brought to your horrified awareness. They step away from | sin, reminding you that it is not reality which frightens you and |
| Tx:21.14 | vision, happiness, release from pain, and the complete escape from | sin, all to be given you. Say only this, but mean it with no |
| Tx:21.17 | God created it, outside of which is nothing. Suffer, and you decided | sin was your goal. Be happy, and you gave the power of decision to |
| Tx:21.24 | of reality to make it fit the goal of madness. The goal of | sin induces the perception of a fearful world to justify its purpose. |
| Tx:21.29 | All special relationships have | sin as their goal. For they are bargains with reality, toward which |
| Tx:21.30 | you have accepted the idea of making room for truth. The source of | sin is gone. You may imagine that you still experience its effects, |
| Tx:21.30 | brings. The power of faith is never recognized if it is placed in | sin. But it is always recognized if it is placed in love. |
| Tx:21.31 | to place equal faith in opposite directions. What faith you give to | sin you take away from holiness. And what you offer holiness has been |
| Tx:21.31 | from holiness. And what you offer holiness has been removed from | sin. |
| Tx:21.33 | and belief you made as means for losing certainty and finding | sin. This mad direction was your choice, and by your faith in what |
| Tx:21.34 | The Holy Spirit has a use for all the means for | sin by which you sought to find it. But as He uses them, they lead |
| Tx:21.34 | you sought to find it. But as He uses them, they lead away from | sin because His purpose lies in the opposite direction. He sees the |
| Tx:21.34 | perception that you might choose among your brothers and seek for | sin with them. The Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to teach |
| Tx:21.35 | belief become attached to vision, as all the means that once served | sin are redirected now toward holiness. For what you think is sin is |
| Tx:21.35 | served sin are redirected now toward holiness. For what you think is | sin is limitation, and whom you try to limit to the body you hate |
| Tx:21.35 | forgive him, you would condemn him to the body because the means for | sin are dear to you. And so the body has your faith and your belief. |
| Tx:21.36 | from the body can have no fear. They have renounced the means for | sin by choosing to let all limitations be removed. Desiring to look |
| Tx:21.36 | are also born of faith. For all who choose to look away from | sin are given vision and are led to holiness. |
| Tx:21.37 | Those who believe in | sin must think the Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how |
| Tx:21.37 | For He Who loves the world is seeing it for you without one spot of | sin upon it and in the innocence which makes the sight of it as |
| Tx:21.38 | in the mind, which tries to use the body to carry out the means for | sin in which the mind believes. Thus is the joining of mind and body |
| Tx:21.38 | joining of mind and body an inescapable belief of those who value | sin. And so is sacrifice invariably a means for limitation and thus |
| Tx:21.40 | The body was made to be a sacrifice to | sin, and in the darkness so it still is seen. Yet in the light of |
| Tx:21.41 | no one fearful. You are indeed afraid to look within and see the | sin you think is there. This you would not be fearful to admit. Fear |
| Tx:21.41 | This you would not be fearful to admit. Fear in association with | sin the ego deems quite appropriate and smiles approvingly. It has no |
| Tx:21.41 | fear to let you feel ashamed. It doubts not your belief and faith in | sin. Its temples do not shake because of this. Your faith that sin is |
| Tx:21.41 | in sin. Its temples do not shake because of this. Your faith that | sin is there but witnesses to your desire that it be there to see. |
| Tx:21.42 | tells you not to look inward, for if you do, your eyes will light on | sin, and God will strike you blind. This you believe, and so you do |
| Tx:21.42 | is not certain it is so. Beneath your fear to look within because of | sin is yet another fear and one which makes the ego tremble. |
| Tx:21.43 | What if you looked within and saw no | sin? This “fearful” question is one the ego never asks. And you who |
| Tx:21.43 | which you join with what is part of you in truth. And your belief in | sin has been already shaken, nor are you now entirely unwilling to |
| Tx:21.44 | you now identify is not afraid to look upon itself. It knows no | sin. How, otherwise, could it have been willing to see the Holy |
| Tx:21.48 | and looks upon the ego unafraid. Little children, innocent of | sin, follow in gladness the way to certainty. Be not held back by |
| Tx:21.55 | own right. It is not reinterpreted and redirected from the goal of | sin as are the others. For reason is beyond the ego's range of means. |
| Tx:21.57 | and those who use it have gained a means which cannot be applied to | sin. Knowledge is far beyond attainment of any kind. But reason can |
| Tx:21.59 | Reason cannot see | sin but can see errors and leads to their correction. It does not |
| Tx:21.59 | but their correction. Reason will also tell you when you think you | sin, you call for help. Yet if you will not accept the help you call |
| Tx:21.60 | Correction cannot be accepted or refused by you without your brother. | Sin would maintain it can. Yet reason tells you that you cannot see |
| Tx:21.60 | And who can see a sinful world and look upon himself apart from it? | Sin would maintain you must be separate. But reason tells you that |
| Tx:21.64 | If you choose | sin instead of healing, you would condemn the Son of God to what can |
| Tx:21.70 | strange belief that you are powerless? Being helpless is the cost of | sin. Helplessness is sin's condition—the one requirement that it |
| Tx:21.74 | Yet hate must have a target. There can be no faith in | sin without an enemy. Who that believes in sin would dare believe he |
| Tx:21.74 | There can be no faith in sin without an enemy. Who that believes in | sin would dare believe he has no enemy? Could he admit that no one |
| Tx:21.74 | he cannot understand, he will but emphasize his helplessness and let | sin tell him that his enemy must be himself. But let him only ask |
| Tx:21.75 | helpless? Do I desire a world in which I have no enemies and cannot | sin? And do I want to see what I denied because it is the truth? |
| Tx:21.76 | Here, then, would seem to be the last remaining hope of finding | sin and not accepting power. |
| Tx:21.77 | Forget not that the choice of truth or | sin, power or helplessness, is the choice of whether to attack or |
| Tx:21.78 | And then it will be clear to you that, as you look on the effects of | sin in any form, all you need do is simply ask yourself, |
| Tx:21.81 | for power, and lose this same desire as a little glint of | sin attracts you. And you can want to see a sinless world and let an |
| Tx:21.82 | same. For each one asks if you are willing to exchange the world of | sin for what the Holy Spirit sees, since it is this the world of sin |
| Tx:21.82 | of sin for what the Holy Spirit sees, since it is this the world of | sin denies. And therefore those who look on sin are seeing the denial |
| Tx:21.82 | it is this the world of sin denies. And therefore those who look on | sin are seeing the denial of the real world. Yet the last question |
| Tx:22.1 | whom God hath joined have come together and need no longer look on | sin apart. No two can look on sin together, for they could never see |
| Tx:22.1 | together and need no longer look on sin apart. No two can look on | sin together, for they could never see it in the same place and time. |
| Tx:22.1 | together, for they could never see it in the same place and time. | Sin is a strictly individual perception, seen in the other yet |
| Tx:22.2 | what you both believed and saw. And with their going is the need for | sin gone with them. Who has need for sin? Only the lonely and alone |
| Tx:22.2 | their going is the need for sin gone with them. Who has need for | sin? Only the lonely and alone who see their brothers different from |
| Tx:22.2 | It is this difference, seen but not real, that makes the need for | sin, not real but seen, seem justified. And all this would be real if |
| Tx:22.2 | not real but seen, seem justified. And all this would be real if | sin were so. For an unholy relationship is based on differences, |
| Tx:22.8 | would tell you that this is no secret that need be hidden as a | sin. But a mistake indeed! Let not your fear of sin protect it from |
| Tx:22.8 | need be hidden as a sin. But a mistake indeed! Let not your fear of | sin protect it from correction, for the attraction of guilt is only |
| Tx:22.19 | of belief. It cannot compromise. And faith in innocence is faith in | sin if the belief excludes one living thing and holds it out apart |
| Tx:22.20 | means by which escape from guilt can be attained, then the belief in | sin must be eternal. Yet reason looks on this another way, for reason |
| Tx:22.28 | willingness if you would be released entirely from all effects of | sin. Would you have partial forgiveness for yourself? Can you reach |
| Tx:22.28 | forgiveness for yourself? Can you reach Heaven while a single | sin still tempts you to remain in misery? Heaven is the home of |
| Tx:22.30 | you thought was real is not. Reason can see the difference between | sin and mistakes because it wants correction. Therefore, it tells you |
| Tx:22.30 | The ego's opposition to correction leads to its fixed belief in | sin and disregard of errors. It looks on nothing that can be |
| Tx:22.31 | brings you to a state of mind in which salvation can be given you. | Sin is a block, set like a heavy gate, locked and without a key, |
| Tx:22.32 | give. And yet mistakes, regardless of their form, can be corrected. | Sin is but error in a special form the ego venerates. It would |
| Tx:22.33 | can see only illusions, unable to look beyond the granite block of | sin and stopping at the outside form of nothing. To this distorted |
| Tx:22.36 | except what you associate with his body, which you believe can | sin? Beyond his errors is his holiness and your salvation. You gave |
| Tx:22.37 | each one is valued because he seems to justify the other's | sin. He sees within the other what impels him to sin against his |
| Tx:22.37 | justify the other's sin. He sees within the other what impels him to | sin against his will. And thus he lays his sins upon the other and is |
| Tx:22.37 | And so it must become impossible for each to see himself as causing | sin by his desire to have sin real. Yet reason sees a holy |
| Tx:22.37 | for each to see himself as causing sin by his desire to have | sin real. Yet reason sees a holy relationship as what it is—a |
| Tx:22.40 | And so you stand, here in this holy place, before the veil of | sin that hangs between you and the face of Christ. Let it be lifted! |
| Tx:22.41 | among them, offering Christ's forgiveness to dispel their faith in | sin. |
| Tx:22.46 | truth? And what would you be saved from but what you fear? Belief in | sin needs great defense and at enormous cost. All that the Holy |
| Tx:22.46 | the Holy Spirit offers must be defended against and sacrificed. For | sin is carved into a block out of your peace and laid between you and |
| Tx:22.55 | Before a holy relationship there is no | sin. The form of error is no longer seen, and reason, joined with |
| Tx:22.61 | and easily destroyed unless his Father is? You do not see that every | sin and every condemnation which you perceive and justify is an |
| Tx:23.1 | strength, and nothing else is strong. The sinless cannot fear, for | sin of any kind is weakness. The show of strength attack would use to |
| Tx:23.2 | war against yourself! You will believe that everything you use for | sin can hurt you and become your enemy. And you will fight against it |
| Tx:23.3 | seemed harmful now stands shining in their innocence, released from | sin and fear, and happily returned to love. They share the strength |
| Tx:23.4 | Do not give up this world of freedom for a little sigh of seeming | sin nor for a tiny stirring of guilt's attraction. Would you, for all |
| Tx:23.4 | variance with littleness of any kind. And so it is at variance with | sin. |
| Tx:23.16 | holy home and let forgiveness sweep away all trace of the belief in | sin that keeps God homeless and His Son with Him. You are not |
| Tx:23.17 | the light grows dim, the temple of the Holy One becomes a house of | sin. And nothing is remembered except illusions. Illusions can |
| Tx:23.22 | The second law of chaos, dear indeed to every worshiper of | sin, is that each one must sin and therefore deserves attack and |
| Tx:23.22 | chaos, dear indeed to every worshiper of sin, is that each one must | sin and therefore deserves attack and death. This principle, closely |
| Tx:23.22 | sentence upon himself, which God Himself is powerless to overcome. | Sin cannot be remitted, being the belief the Son of God can make |
| Tx:23.32 | by which the laws of God appear to be reversed. Here do the laws of | sin appear to hold love captive and let sin go free. |
| Tx:23.32 | Here do the laws of sin appear to hold love captive and let | sin go free. |
| Tx:23.39 | From the belief in | sin, the faith in chaos must follow. It is because it follows that it |
| Tx:24.14 | Specialness is the idea of | sin made real. Sin is impossible even to imagine without this base. |
| Tx:24.14 | Specialness is the idea of sin made real. | Sin is impossible even to imagine without this base. For sin arose |
| Tx:24.14 | made real. Sin is impossible even to imagine without this base. For | sin arose from it out of nothingness; an evil flower with no roots at |
| Tx:24.14 | instead of Heaven and instead of peace and wrapped it carefully in | sin to keep it “safe” from truth. |
| Tx:24.23 | but seeks for bargains and for compromise that would establish | sin love's substitute and serve it faithfully. And no relationship |
| Tx:24.26 | as lovely still. And so he calls it “unforgivable” and makes it | sin. How can he then give his forgiveness wholly, when he would not |
| Tx:24.27 | Whatever form of specialness you cherish, you have made | sin. Inviolate it stands, strongly defended with all your puny might |
| Tx:24.27 | birthright to it, leaving him alone and unforgiven and yourself in | sin beside him, both in misery before the idol that can save you not. |
| Tx:24.38 | the answer must be “no.” A sinless brother is its enemy, while | sin, if it were possible, would be its friend. Your brother's sins |
| Tx:24.39 | entirely and when you suffer pain of any kind, you have beheld some | sin within your brother and have rejoiced at what you thought was |
| Tx:24.42 | that could need forgiveness. He is at peace because He sees no | sin. Identify with Him, and what has He that you have not? He is your |
| Tx:24.43 | the shifting tiny gleams that spark an instant from the fireflies of | sin and then go out, to lead the other to a nameless precipice and |
| Tx:24.43 | upon your brother first, nor hated him before it hated you. The | sin its eyes behold in him and love to look upon, it saw in you and |
| Tx:24.53 | not one law of death you bind him to will you escape. And not one | sin you see in him but keeps you both in hell. Yet will his perfect |
| Tx:25.28 | just another chance to bring him joy. How can a misperception be a | sin? Let all your brother's errors be to you nothing except a chance |
| Tx:25.30 | in His forgiving eyes. And therefore it need not be there in yours. | Sin is the fixed belief perception cannot change. What has been |
| Tx:25.30 | what He sees as far beyond the chance of change. But on His vision | sin cannot encroach, for sin has been corrected by His sight. And |
| Tx:25.30 | the chance of change. But on His vision sin cannot encroach, for | sin has been corrected by His sight. And thus it must have been an |
| Tx:25.30 | corrected by His sight. And thus it must have been an error, not a | sin. For what it claimed could never be has been. Sin is attacked by |
| Tx:25.30 | an error, not a sin. For what it claimed could never be has been. | Sin is attacked by punishment and so preserved. But to forgive it is |
| Tx:25.31 | The Son of God could never | sin, but he can wish for what would hurt him. And he has the power to |
| Tx:25.31 | What could this be except a misperception of himself? Is this a | sin or a mistake, forgivable or not? Does he need help or |
| Tx:25.33 | you see it to rejoice.” And while you think that suffering and | sin will bring you joy, so long will they be there for you to see. |
| Tx:25.34 | bring with you to all the weary eyes and tired hearts that look on | sin and beat its sad refrain. From you can come their rest. From you |
| Tx:25.37 | because it has no purpose and is meaningless without the goal of | sin. Attack and sin are bound as one illusion, each the cause and aim |
| Tx:25.37 | no purpose and is meaningless without the goal of sin. Attack and | sin are bound as one illusion, each the cause and aim and justifier |
| Tx:25.39 | confused with Christ you look upon. And hate because there is no | sin in him for you to see. Nor do you hear his plaintive call, |
| Tx:25.43 | damn another. He is not an arbiter of vengeance nor a punisher of | sin. The kindness of his sight rests on himself with all the |
| Tx:25.47 | It is the means the Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness from | sin into salvation. Forgiveness is for all. But when it rests on all, |
| Tx:25.48 | from the very instant that the choice was made. His special | sin was made his special grace. His special hate became his special |
| Tx:25.50 | that you laid upon yourself into a blessing, then it cannot be a | sin. Sin is the one thing in all the world that cannot change. It is |
| Tx:25.50 | you laid upon yourself into a blessing, then it cannot be a sin. | Sin is the one thing in all the world that cannot change. It is |
| Tx:25.50 | world depends. The magic of the world can seem to hide the pain of | sin from sinners and deceive with glitter and with guile. Yet each |
| Tx:25.50 | deceive with glitter and with guile. Yet each one knows the cost of | sin is death. And so it is. For sin is a request for death, a wish to |
| Tx:25.50 | Yet each one knows the cost of sin is death. And so it is. For | sin is a request for death, a wish to make this world's foundation |
| Tx:25.50 | as God Himself. The world is safe from love to everyone who thinks | sin possible. Nor will it change. Yet is it possible what God created |
| Tx:25.53 | or is maintained by any form of reason believes this to be true. | Sin is not real because the Father and the Son are not insane. This |
| Tx:25.53 | Son are not insane. This world is meaningless because it rests on | sin. Who could create the changeless if it does not rest on truth? |
| Tx:25.55 | is worthy of your faith. But nothing else. What is not love is | sin, and either one perceives the other as insane and meaningless. |
| Tx:25.55 | wholly mad to sinners who believe theirs is the way to sanity. But | sin is equally insane within the sight of love, whose gentle eyes |
| Tx:25.58 | he really wants. From this position does his sinfulness and all the | sin he sees within the world offer him less and less— until he |
| Tx:25.61 | is satisfied, for all insane beliefs can be corrected here. And | sin must be impossible if this is true. This is the rock on which |
| Tx:25.64 | you. What but a little faith remains to those who still believe in | sin? What could they know of Heaven and the justice of the saved? |
| Tx:25.65 | perhaps sustained by someone else but not escaped. The laws of | sin demand a victim. Who it may be makes little difference. But death |
| Tx:25.66 | takes. Justice demands no sacrifice, for any sacrifice is made that | sin may be preserved and kept. It is a payment offered for the cost |
| Tx:25.66 | may be preserved and kept. It is a payment offered for the cost of | sin, but not the total cost. The rest is taken from another, to be |
| Tx:25.67 | it is not true? It is extremely hard for those who still believe | sin meaningful to understand the Holy Spirit's justice. |
| Tx:25.69 | So do they think the loss of | sin a curse. And flee [the blessing of] the Holy Spirit as if He were |
| Tx:25.72 | right hand and give the Son of God the power to forgive himself of | sin. |
| Tx:25.74 | As specialness cares not who pays the cost of | sin, so it be paid, the Holy Spirit heeds not who looks on innocence |
| Tx:25.75 | God's Son has found a witness unto his sinlessness and not his | sin. How little need you give the Holy Spirit that simple justice may |
| Tx:25.77 | —to perfect peace, complete deliverance from all effects of | sin, and to the life eternal, joyous and complete in every way, as |
| Tx:25.78 | not with justice? Are you willing to be released from all effects of | sin? You cannot answer this until you see all that the answer must |
| Tx:25.78 | all values of this world in favor of the peace of Heaven. Not one | sin would you retain. And not one doubt that this is possible will |
| Tx:25.78 | And not one doubt that this is possible will you hold dear that | sin be kept in place. You mean that truth has greater value now than |
| Tx:26.6 | with him. Make not his holiness a sacrifice to your belief in | sin. You sacrifice your innocence with his and die each time you see |
| Tx:26.6 | sacrifice your innocence with his and die each time you see in him a | sin deserving death. |
| Tx:26.7 | Son is not imprisoned in a body nor is sacrificed in solitude to | sin. |
| Tx:26.11 | in gain for anyone. If this were true, then God would be unfair, | sin would be possible, attack be justified, and vengeance fair. |
| Tx:26.19 | Heaven. Here is every thought made pure and wholly simple. Here is | sin denied and everything that is received instead. |
| Tx:26.25 | world's equivalent of Heaven's justice. It translates the world of | sin into a simple world where justice can be reflected from beyond |
| Tx:26.25 | that opens into Heaven. No one forgives unless he has believed in | sin and still believes that he has much to be forgiven. Forgiveness |
| Tx:26.26 | Forgiveness turns the world of | sin into a world of glory, wonderful to see. Each flower shines in |
| Tx:26.26 | nothing stands between to push the other off. And in the space which | sin left vacant do they join as one, in gladness recognizing what is |
| Tx:26.27 | The holy place on which you stand is but the space that | sin has left. And here you see the face of Christ arising in its |
| Tx:26.27 | as He really is? Who could fear love and stand upon the ground where | sin has left a place for Heaven's altar to rise and tower far above |
| Tx:26.27 | the Source of its creation? The holiest of altars is set where once | sin was believed to be. And here does every light of heaven come to |
| Tx:26.29 | Where | sin once was perceived will rise a world which will become an altar |
| Tx:26.29 | the singing at the altar which was raised within the tiny spot that | sin proclaimed to be its own. And what was tiny then has soared into |
| Tx:26.29 | the universe has joined with but a single voice. This tiny spot of | sin that stands between you still is holding back the happy opening |
| Tx:26.35 | unforgiving act or thought, in every judgment, and in all belief in | sin, is that one instant still called back, as if it could be made |
| Tx:26.38 | time of terror that has been so long ago corrected and undone. Can | sin withstand the Will of God? Can it be up to you to see the past |
| Tx:26.44 | reality has entered all the world of sick illusions. All belief in | sin, in power of attack, in hurt and harm, in sacrifice and death has |
| Tx:26.47 | brought it has been healed and been replaced by sanity. Sickness and | sin are seen as consequence and cause in a relationship kept hidden |
| Tx:26.48 | —not in truth but in the world of shadows and illusions built on | sin. The Son of God perceives what he would see, because perception |
| Tx:26.50 | God's answer lies where the belief in | sin must be, for only there can its effects be utterly undone and |
| Tx:26.52 | Sin is not error, for it goes beyond correction to impossibility. Yet | |
| Tx:26.52 | attack unto Himself. Thus has He lost His Mind, proclaiming | sin has taken His reality from Him, and brought His love at last to |
| Tx:26.53 | bring the joy this world denies to every aspect of God's Son where | sin was thought to rule. Perhaps you do not see the role forgiveness |
| Tx:26.56 | from a Unity Which holds all things within Itself? There is no | sin. And every miracle is possible the instant that the Son of God |
| Tx:26.59 | Sin is belief attack can be projected outside the mind where the | |
| Tx:26.59 | made real and meaningful. And from this error does the world of | sin and sacrifice arise. This world is an attempt to prove your |
| Tx:26.66 | are fulfilled. Let us unite in bringing blessing to the world of | sin and death. For what can save each one of us can save us all. |
| Tx:26.72 | he thought they had been caused and judged disastrous now? Belief in | sin arouses fear and, like its cause, is looking forward, looking |
| Tx:26.72 | here in present grace, within the only interval of time which | sin and fear have overlooked but which is all there is to time. The |
| Tx:26.83 | you angels hover lovingly, to keep away all darkened thoughts of | sin and keep the light where it has entered in. Your footprints |
| Tx:27.7 | bolsters all the rest and helps them paint the picture in which | sin is justified, is sickness in whatever form it takes. |
| Tx:27.9 | These are not sins, but witnesses unto the strange belief that | sin and death are real, and innocence and sin will end alike within |
| Tx:27.9 | the strange belief that sin and death are real, and innocence and | sin will end alike within the termination of the grave. If this were |
| Tx:27.10 | Your function is to [prove to] your brother that | sin can have no cause. How futile must it be to see yourself a |
| Tx:27.11 | Into this empty space, from which the goal of | sin has been removed, is Heaven free to be remembered. Here its peace |

| Tx:31.28 | mind. The body must act on its own and motivate itself. If you are | sin, you lock the mind within the body, and you give its purpose to |

| W1:99.5 | is real. Unshaken does the Holy Spirit look on what you see—on | sin and pain and death, on grief and separation, and on loss. Yet |
| W1:101.1 | This is not so. Yet you must think it so while you believe that | sin is real and that God's Son can sin. If sin is real, then |

| W1:101.5 | You need the practice periods today. The exercises teach | sin is not real, and all that you believe must come from sin will |
| W1:101.5 | teach sin is not real, and all that you believe must come from | sin will never happen, for it has no cause. Accept Atonement with an |
| W1:101.6 | There is no | sin. We practice with this thought as often as we can today because |
| W1:101.6 | idea. God's Will for you is perfect happiness because there is no | sin, and suffering is causeless. Joy is just, and pain is but the |
| W1:101.7 | it in confidence that it will set you free from all the consequences | sin has wrought in feverish imagination. Say: |
| W1:101.8 | God's Will for me is perfect happiness. There is no | sin; it has no consequence. |
| W1:101.9 | the heavy load you laid upon yourself with the insane belief that | sin is real. |
| W1:101.10 | hope to go still faster to the waiting goal of peace. There is no | sin. Remember this today, and tell yourself as often as you can: |
| W1:101.11 | for me is perfect happiness. This is the truth because there is no | sin. |

| W1:121.14 | I will awaken from the dream that I am mortal, fallible, and full of | sin and know I am the perfect Son of God. |
| W1:126.2 | not in any way related to your own. You further think that they can | sin without affecting your perception of yourself, while you can |
| W1:126.2 | affecting your perception of yourself, while you can judge their | sin and yet remain apart from condemnation and at peace. |
| W1:126.3 | When you “forgive” a | sin there is no gain to you directly. You give charity to one |
| W1:126.4 | just, nor is it fair that you should suffer when it is withheld. The | sin which you forgive is not your own. Someone apart from you |
| W1:126.4 | him what he does not deserve, the gift is no more yours than was his | sin. |
| W1:126.5 | right to let the sinner not escape the justified repayment for his | sin. Think you the Lord of Heaven would allow the world's salvation |
| W1:134.3 | true. This twisted viewpoint but reflects the hold that the idea of | sin retains as yet upon your mind as you regard yourself. |
| W1:134.4 | you look on pardon as deception. For it is impossible to think of | sin as true and not believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is forgiveness |
| W1:134.4 | not believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is forgiveness really but a | sin, like all the rest. It says the truth is false and smiles on the |
| W1:134.5 | Pardon is no escape in such a view. It merely is a further sign that | sin is unforgivable, at best to be concealed, denied, or called |
| W1:134.5 | for pardon is a treachery to truth. Guilt cannot be forgiven. If you | sin, your guilt is everlasting. Those who are forgiven from the view |
| W1:134.9 | in welcome. When you feel that you are tempted to accuse someone of | sin in any form, do not allow your mind to dwell on what you think he |
| W1:134.17 | you are using his “offenses” but to save the world from all ideas of | sin. Briefly consider all the evil things you thought of him, and |
| W1:134.18 | Let him be freed from all the thoughts you had of | sin in him. And now you are prepared for freedom. If you have been |
| W1:136.12 | What is unalterable cannot change. And what is wholly sinless cannot | sin. |
| W1:137.7 | Just as forgiveness shines away all | sin and the real world will occupy the place of what you made, so |
| W1:140.5 | For cure must come from holiness, and holiness cannot be found where | sin is cherished. God abides in holy temples. He is barred where sin |
| W1:140.5 | sin is cherished. God abides in holy temples. He is barred where | sin has entered. Yet there is no place where He is not. And therefore |
| W1:140.5 | has entered. Yet there is no place where He is not. And therefore | sin can have no home in which to hide from His beneficence. There is |
| W1:140.5 | beneficence. There is no place where holiness is not, and nowhere | sin and sickness can abide. |
| W1:R4.12 | darkness to the light, from grief to joy, from pain to peace, from | sin to holiness. God offers thanks to you who practice thus the |
| W1:151.4 | and afraid, how apprehensive of just punishment, how black with | sin, how wretched in your guilt. |
| W1:151.8 | judged can only laugh at guilt, unwilling now to play with toys of | sin, unheeding of the body's witnesses before the rapture of His holy |
| W1:151.11 | see the love beyond the hate, the constancy in change, the pure in | sin, and only Heaven's blessing on the world. |
| W1:151.16 | the gift of snow-white lilies on the world, replacing witnesses to | sin and death. Through your transfiguration is the world redeemed and |
| W1:153.13 | by your Father, left alone in terror in a fearful world made mad by | sin and guilt, be happy now. That game is over. Now a quiet time has |
| W1:153.13 | away the toys of guilt and lock our quaint and childish thoughts of | sin forever from the pure and holy minds of Heaven's children and the |
| W1:154.4 | of laws the world does not obey, which promises salvation from all | sin, with guilt abolished in the mind that God created sinless. Now |
| W1:156.1 | Today's idea but states the simple truth that makes the thought of | sin impossible. It promises there is no cause for guilt, and being |
| W1:156.6 | steps forward and encompasses the world. It heralds not the end of | sin in punishment and death. In lightness and in laughter is it gone, |
| W1:158.7 | pitiful mistakes, and fearful thoughts of guilt from dreams of | sin. It sees no separation. And it looks on everyone, on every |
| W1:158.10 | you remember in your brother you but see yourself. If he be lost in | sin, so must you be; if you see light in him, your sins have been |
| W1:159.4 | extension here on earth as they are one in Heaven. Christ beholds no | sin in anyone, and in His sight the sinless are as one. Their |
| W1:159.7 | made new again but in a different light. What was to be the home of | sin becomes the center of redemption and the hearth of mercy where |
| W1:162.2 | it is. There is no dream these words will not dispel, no thought of | sin, and no illusion that the dream contains that will not fade away |
| W1:162.5 | acceptance is salvation brought to everyone, for who could cherish | sin when holiness like this has blessed the world? Who could despair |
| W1:162.5 | grief and misery, all sense of loss, and for complete escape from | sin and guilt? |
| W1:163.2 | Embodiment of fear, the host of | sin, god of the guilty, and the lord of all illusions and deceptions, |
| W1:164.4 | have not lost. There is a sense of holiness in you the thought of | sin has never touched. All this today you will remember. Faithfulness |
| W1:181.8 | we seek but for surcease an instant from the misery the focus upon | sin will bring and, uncorrected, will remain. |
| W1:181.10 | look upon attests to our remembrance of the holy Self Which knows no | sin and never could conceive of anything without Its sinlessness. We |
| W1:183.5 | upon the Name of God cannot mistake the nameless for the Name, nor | sin for grace, nor bodies for the holy Son of God. |
| W1:186.6 | as is the image of yourself. You are not ignorant and helpless. | Sin cannot tarnish the truth in you, and misery can come not near the |
| W1:188.9 | as we would have it. Now we choose that it be innocent, devoid of | sin, and open to salvation. And we lay our saving blessing on it as |
| W1:190.11 | are free to choose our joy instead of pain, our holiness in place of | sin, the peace of God instead of conflict, and the light of Heaven |
| W1:191.3 | legions of your enemies. Deny your own Identity and look on evil, | sin, and death. And watch despair snatch from your fingers every |
| W1:193.3 | God offers no forgiveness, for He knows no | sin is possible. And yet He let His holy law of Love be given form in |
| W1:193.9 | is revered no more. These are the words which end the dream of | sin and rid the mind of fear. These are the words by which salvation |
| W1:194.2 | anxiety, all pits of hell, all blackness of depression, thoughts of | sin, and devastation brought about by guilt. Accept today's idea, and |
| W1:194.8 | call the memory of Him to come again, replacing all your thoughts of | sin and evil with the truth of love. Think you the world could fail |
| W1:203.1 | The Name of God is my deliverance from every thought of evil and of | sin, because it is my own as well as His. I am not a body. I am free. |
| W2:WF.1 | It does not pardon sins and make them real. It sees there was no | sin. And in this view are all your sins forgiven. What is sin except |
| W2:WF.1 | was no sin. And in this view are all your sins forgiven. What is | sin except a false idea about God's Son? Forgiveness merely sees its |
| W2:227.2 | his dreams. The Son of God this day comes home again, released from | sin and clad in holiness, with his right mind restored to him at last. |
| W2:229.2 | Identity untouched and sinless in the midst of all the thoughts of | sin my foolish mind made up. And thanks to You for saving me from |
| W2:234.1 | Today we will anticipate the time when dreams of | sin and guilt are gone and we have reached again the holy peace we |
| W2:235.2 | me and made my sinlessness forever part of You. I have no guilt or | sin in me, for there is none in You. |
| W2:239.1 | us. Can we see in those with whom He shares His glory any trace of | sin and guilt? And can it be that we are not among them when He loves |
| W2:247.1 | Sin is the symbol of attack. Behold it anywhere, and I will suffer. | |
| W2:WIS.1 | Sin is insanity. It is the means by which the mind is driven mad and | |
| W2:WIS.1 | it sees illusions where the truth should be and where it really is. | Sin gave the body eyes, for what is there the sinless would behold? |
| W2:WIS.3 | Sin is the home of all illusions, which but stand for things | |
| W2:WIS.3 | are untrue. They are the “proof” that what has no reality is real. | Sin “proves” God's Son is evil; timelessness must have an end; |
| W2:WIS.4 | A madman's dreams are frightening, and | sin appears indeed to terrify. And yet what sin perceives is but a |

| W2:WIS.5 | How long, oh Son of God, will you maintain the game of | sin? Shall we not put away these sharp-edged children's toys? How |
| W2:WIS.5 | How soon will you be ready to come home? Perhaps today? There is no | sin. Creation is unchanged. Would you still hold return to Heaven |
| W2:256.1 | The way to God is through forgiveness here. There is no other way. If | sin had not been cherished by the mind, what need would there have |
| W2:256.1 | we can but dream. But we can dream we have forgiven him in whom all | sin remains impossible, and it is this we choose to dream today. God |
| W2:259.1 | Sin is the only thought that makes the goal of God seem unobtainable. | |
| W2:259.1 | make the strange and the distorted seem more clear? What else but | sin engenders our attacks? What else but sin could be the source of |
| W2:259.1 | more clear? What else but sin engenders our attacks? What else but | sin could be the source of guilt, demanding punishment and suffering? |
| W2:260.2 | Identity at last. Holy indeed are we because our Source can know no | sin. And we who are His Sons are like each other and alike to Him. |
| W2:WIC.2 | yet does He remain the Self Who, like His Father, knows no | sin. |
| W2:289.2 | in a present world the past has left untouched and free of | sin. Here is the end of guilt. And here am I made ready for Your |
| W2:WIRW.4 | The real world is the symbol that the dream of | sin and guilt is over and God's Son no longer sleeps. His waking eyes |
| W2:299.2 | Father, my holiness is not of me. It is not mine to be destroyed by | sin. It is not mine to suffer from attack. Illusions can obscure it |
| W2:304.2 | You lead me from the darkness to the light, from | sin to holiness. Let me forgive and thus receive salvation for the |
| W2:309.2 | step I take today, my Father, is my sure release from idle dreams of | sin. Your altar stands serene and undefiled. It is the holy altar to |
| W2:WILJ.2 | no condemnation. For it sees the world as totally forgiven, without | sin and wholly purposeless. Without a cause and now without a |
| W2:313.1 | forgiven. In His sight are all its sins forgiven, for He sees no | sin in anything He looks upon. Now let His true perception come to me |
| W2:330.1 | Will of God united with its own. The Self which God created cannot | sin and therefore cannot suffer. Let us choose today that He be our |
| W2:WIE.3 | he lives in eternal joy? What can he know of fear and punishment, of | sin and guilt, of hatred and attack when all there is surrounding him |
| W2:336.2 | In quiet may forgiveness wipe away my dreams of separation and of | sin. Then let me, Father, look within and find Your promise of my |
| W2:344.2 | to God. How near is He to us. How close the ending of the dream of | sin and the redemption of the Son of God. |
| W2:WAI.4 | which Christ's vision sees a world redeemed from every thought of | sin. Ours are the ears that hear the Voice of God proclaim the world |
| W2:356.1 | Love, and thus it answers him. Your Name replaces every thought of | sin, and who is sinless cannot suffer pain. Your Name gives answer to |
| W2:359.1 | learn that we have made mistakes which have no real effects on us. | Sin is impossible, and on this fact forgiveness rests upon a certain |
| W2:FL.1 | our lives henceforth. For we would not return again to the belief in | sin, which made the world seem ugly and unsafe, attacking and |
| M:I.5 | teachers, there would be no hope of salvation, for the world of | sin would seem forever “real.” The self-deceiving must deceive, for |
| M:10.2 | judgment there is, and it is only one: “God's Son is guiltless, and | sin does not exist.” |
| M:12.5 | —that what you use the body for, it will become to you. Use it for | sin or for attack, which is the same as sin, and you will see it as |
| M:12.5 | become to you. Use it for sin or for attack, which is the same as | sin, and you will see it as sinful. Because it is sinful, it is weak, |
| M:14.1 | in gentleness, will cover it, hiding all evil, concealing all | sin, and ending guilt forever. So ends the world that guilt had made, |
| M:14.2 | is it nourished, for here it is needed. A gentle Savior, born where | sin was made and guilt seemed real. Here is His home, for here there |
| M:14.2 | with the benediction of holiness upon it. When not one thought of | sin remains, the world is over. It will not be destroyed nor attacked |
| M:14.3 | this seems to be a long, long while away. “When not one thought of | sin remains” appears to be a long-range goal indeed. But time stands |
| M:14.3 | still and waits on the goals of God's teachers. Not one thought of | sin will remain the instant any one of them accepts the Atonement for |
| M:14.3 | accepts the Atonement for himself. It is not easier to forgive one | sin than to forgive all of them. The illusion of orders of difficulty |
| M:14.3 | the teacher of God must learn to pass by and leave behind. One | sin perfectly forgiven by one teacher of God can make salvation |
| M:17.1 | God's teacher can be sure that he is strengthening his own belief in | sin and has condemned himself. He can be sure as well that he has |
| M:18.4 | for the truth. And you are wrong. But a mistake is not a | sin, nor has reality been taken from its throne by your mistakes. God |

| Tx:19.20 | Purity is seen as arrogance, and the acceptance of the self as | sinful is perceived as holiness. And it is this doctrine which |
| Tx:19.24 | would be tempted to agree with the ego that it is far better to be | sinful than mistaken. Yet think you carefully before you allow |
| Tx:20.61 | for holiness is positive, and the body is merely neutral. It is not | sinful, but neither is it sinless. As nothing, which it is, the body |

| Tx:21.41 | The Holy Spirit will never teach you that you are | sinful. Errors He will correct, but this makes no one fearful. You |
| Tx:21.60 | Yet reason tells you that you cannot see your brother or yourself as | sinful and still perceive the other innocent. Who looks upon himself |
| Tx:21.60 | upon himself as guilty and sees a sinless world? And who can see a | sinful world and look upon himself apart from it? Sin would maintain |
| Tx:22.36 | And yet his holiness is your forgiveness. Can you be saved by making | sinful the one whose holiness is your salvation? |
| Tx:23.6 | will the world sparkle and shine and everything you once thought | sinful now will be reinterpreted as part of Heaven. How beautiful it |
| Tx:23.49 | the function to create unto His Son because it is His own. It is not | sinful to believe the function of the Son is murder, but it is |
| Tx:24.38 | sinlessness. All that is false proclaims his sins as real. If he is | sinful, then is your reality not real but just a dream of specialness |
| Tx:24.71 | and dies. And you cannot conceive of you apart from it. You brand it | sinful, and you hate its acts, judging it evil. Yet your specialness |
| Tx:27.83 | confined within a body, which it punishes because of all the | sinful things the body does within its dream. You have no power to |
| Tx:29.64 | what you believe you have accomplished and have done to make you | sinful and put out the light within you. Little children, it is |
| W1:36.1 | is part of God's, you must be sinless or a part of His Mind would be | sinful. Your sight is related to His holiness, not to your ego and |
| W1:95.1 | as a ridiculous parody on God's creation—weak, vicious, ugly and | sinful, miserable and beset with pain. |
| W1:101.2 | then happiness must be illusion, for they cannot both be true. The | sinful warrant only death and pain, and it is this they ask for, for |
| W1:121.4 | hope. It wants escape, yet can conceive of none because it sees the | sinful everywhere. |
| W1:152.6 | not. Of this you can be sure. What can He know of the ephemeral, the | sinful and the guilty, the afraid, the suffering and lonely, and the |
| W1:156.3 | what shares His life is part of Holiness and could no more be | sinful than the sun could choose to be of ice, the sea elect to be |
| W1:191.10 | the gift of his forgiveness. Who could see the world as dark and | sinful when God's Son has come again at last to set it free? |
| W2:263.1 | to it. And would I look upon what You created as if it could be made | sinful? I would not perceive such dark and fearful images. A madman's |
| W2:294.2 | body, Father, cannot be Your Son. And what is not created cannot be | sinful or sinless, neither good nor bad. Let me, then, use this dream |
| W2:351.1 | Who is my brother but Your holy Son? And if I see him | sinful, I proclaim myself a sinner, not a Son of God, alone and |
| M:12.5 | sin or for attack, which is the same as sin, and you will see it as | sinful. Because it is sinful, it is weak, and being weak, it suffers |
| M:12.5 | is the same as sin, and you will see it as sinful. Because it is | sinful, it is weak, and being weak, it suffers and it dies. Use it to |
| M:16.10 | through his recognition not that it is fearful, not that it is | sinful, not that it is dangerous, but merely that it is meaningless. |
sinfulness (7) | ||
| Tx:25.5 | And every body that you look upon reminds you of yourself—your | sinfulness, your evil, and above all, your death. And would you not |

| Tx:25.22 | complete by offering completion to your brother. See not in him the | sinfulness he sees, but give him honor that you may esteem yourself |
| Tx:25.58 | it is an alternative he really wants. From this position does his | sinfulness and all the sin he sees within the world offer him less |
| Tx:31.23 | which are but ancient lessons that you taught yourself about the | sinfulness in you. Hear but his call for mercy and release from all |
| W1:93.11 | as you by hiding its majesty behind the tiny idols of evil and | sinfulness you have made to replace it. Let it come into its own. |

| Tx:14.10 | it is taught. Each effort made on its behalf is offered for the | single purpose of release from guilt to the eternal glory of God and |

| Tx:15.15 | changes not. And so it is no longer time at all. For, caught in the | single instant of the eternal sanctity of God's creation, it is |
| Tx:15.19 | given complete release. And because of this, you have not given one | single instant completely to the Holy Spirit. For when you have, you |

| Tx:26.78 | to you, that you may be forgiven all your sins and left without a | single one you cherish still? Forget not that a shadow held between |

| W1:75.4 | shows us. This is what we want to see, and only this. Our | single purpose makes our goal inevitable. Today the real world rises |
| W1:108.3 | and with themselves. This is the light which heals because it brings | single perception, based upon one frame of reference from which one |

| W1:184.12 | Name becomes the final lesson that all things are one, and at this | single lesson learning ends. All names are unified; all space is |
| W1:195.9 | a thought or care for us or for our future. Gratitude becomes the | single thought we substitute for these insane perceptions. God has |
| W1:198.14 | vision of the Son, so brief that not an instant stands between this | single sight and timelessness itself, you see the vision of yourself |
| W1:200.11 | ambiguity and to replace our shifting goals and solitary dreams with | single purpose and companionship. For peace is union if it be of God. |

| M:17.3 | indeed have been the case if the result is anything but joy. The | single aim of the teacher turns the divided goal of the pupil into |
| M:22.6 | receiving, then, that healing lies. All else must follow from this | single purpose. |
| M:28.1 | other interests, all other wishes, and all other concerns. It is the | single desire of the Son for the Father. |

sinless (58) | ||
| Tx:9.104 | If God knows His Children as wholly | sinless, it is blasphemous to perceive them as guilty. If God knows |
| Tx:14.3 | of the blessing of their Father because they know that they are | sinless. The Atonement was established as the means of restoring |
| Tx:17.1 | and all his “sins” are but his own imagining. His reality is forever | sinless. He need not be forgiven, but awakened. In his dreams he has |
| Tx:20.27 | the light of God's eternal promise of your immortality. See him as | sinless, and there can be no fear in you. |
| Tx:20.29 | can their source. And therein lies your need to see your brother | sinless. In him is Heaven. See sin in him instead, and Heaven is lost |

| Tx:20.32 | savior when he is ready to look upon the face of Christ and see Him | sinless. |
| Tx:20.61 | It is impossible to see your brother as | sinless and yet to look upon him as a body. Is this not perfectly |
| Tx:20.61 | of sin be lifted so what was always true is recognized. To see a | sinless body is impossible, for holiness is positive, and the body is |
| Tx:20.61 | and the body is merely neutral. It is not sinful, but neither is it | sinless. As nothing, which it is, the body cannot meaningfully be |
| Tx:20.66 | my brother without the body?” Ask only, “Do I really wish to see him | sinless?” And as you ask, forget not that his sinlessness is your |
| Tx:20.66 | Spirit's goal. The means is vision. For what the seeing look upon is | sinless. No one who loves can judge, and what he sees is free of |
| Tx:20.67 | will be enough to show you what is given you who see your brother | sinless. Truth is restored to you through your desire, as it was lost |
| Tx:20.68 | means or end. All this is given you who would but see your brother | sinless. All this is given, waiting on your desire but to receive it. |
| Tx:20.69 | with Him on what salvation is. Be willing, then, to see your brother | sinless that Christ may rise before your vision and give you joy. And |
| Tx:21.60 | the other innocent. Who looks upon himself as guilty and sees a | sinless world? And who can see a sinful world and look upon himself |
| Tx:21.81 | as a little glint of sin attracts you. And you can want to see a | sinless world and let an “enemy” tempt you to use the body's eyes and |
| Tx:22.28 | is His vision given to anyone who is but willing to see his brother | sinless. And no one can remain beyond this willingness if you would |
| Tx:22.28 | purity, and God created it for you. Look on your holy brother, | sinless as yourself, and let him lead you there. |
| Tx:22.53 | leads to freedom. To serve this end, the body must be perceived as | sinless because the goal is sinlessness. The lack of contradiction |
| Tx:22.53 | be sanctified by one another, using your bodies only to serve the | sinless. And it will be impossible for you to hate what serves what |
| Tx:23.1 | sinlessness? Innocence is strength, and nothing else is strong. The | sinless cannot fear, for sin of any kind is weakness. The show of |
| Tx:23.2 | you attack as it is sure that you will love what you perceive as | sinless. He walks in peace who travels sinlessly along the way love |
| Tx:23.2 | with him there, protecting him from fear. And he will see only the | sinless, who can not attack. |
| Tx:24.6 | someone incapable of being like what he condemns, “above” it, | sinless by comparison with it. And thus does specialness become a |
| Tx:24.26 | to forgive. No one who clings to one illusion can see himself as | sinless, for he holds one error to himself as lovely still. And so he |
| Tx:24.38 | well, whether it is your wish that you might see your brother | sinless. To specialness the answer must be “no.” A sinless brother is |
| Tx:24.38 | see your brother sinless. To specialness the answer must be “no.” A | sinless brother is its enemy, while sin, if it were possible, would |
| Tx:26.17 | and will forever be as He created it. Nothing He loves but must be | sinless and beyond attack. Your special function opens wide the door |
| Tx:26.26 | for nothing stands between to keep them separate and apart. The | sinless must perceive that they are one, for nothing stands between |
| Tx:27.75 | Dream softly of your | sinless brother, who unites with you in holy innocence. And from this |
| Tx:29.57 | living things, give way to chaos, and the Son of God, as perfect, | sinless and as loving as his Father, come to hate a little while, to |
| W1:36.1 | means without sin. You cannot be without sin a little. You are | sinless or not. If your mind is part of God's, you must be sinless or |
| W1:36.1 | You are sinless or not. If your mind is part of God's, you must be | sinless or a part of His Mind would be sinful. Your sight is related |
| W1:60.6 | for me to see. As I forgive, His love reminds me that His Son is | sinless. And as I look upon the world with the vision He has given |
| W1:95.18 | and your doubts. This is your Self, the Son of God Himself, | sinless as its Creator, with His strength within you and His love |
| W1:124.11 | perhaps tomorrow, you will look into this glass and understand the | sinless light you see belongs to you, the loveliness you look on is |

| W1:136.12 | be attacked. What is unalterable cannot change. And what is wholly | sinless cannot sin. |
| W1:154.4 | from all sin, with guilt abolished in the mind that God created | sinless. Now this mind becomes aware again of Who created it and of |
| W1:158.1 | you? The knowledge that you are a mind, in Mind and purely mind, | sinless forever, wholly unafraid because you were created out of |
| W1:159.4 | one in Heaven. Christ beholds no sin in anyone, and in His sight the | sinless are as one. Their holiness was given by His Father and |
| W1:181.9 | And as our focus goes beyond mistakes, we will behold a wholly | sinless world. When seeing this is all we want to see, when this is |
| W1:181.10 | world which once proclaimed our sins becomes the proof that we are | sinless. And our love for everyone we look upon attests to our |
| W2:223.2 | of Christ instead of our mistakes. For we who are Your holy Son are | sinless. We would look upon our sinlessness, for guilt proclaims that |
| W2:224.1 | My true Identity is so secure, so lofty, | sinless, glorious and great, wholly beneficent and free from guilt |
| W2:229.2 | thanks to You for what I am; for keeping my Identity untouched and | sinless in the midst of all the thoughts of sin my foolish mind made |
| W2:WIS.1 | where it really is. Sin gave the body eyes, for what is there the | sinless would behold? What need have they of sights or sounds or |
| W2:256.1 | in heavy clouds of doubt about the holiness of him whom God created | sinless? Here we can but dream. But we can dream we have forgiven him |

| W2:359.1 | we have not made sinners of the holy Sons of God. What You created | sinless so abides forever and forever. Such are we. And we rejoice to |

| Tx:25.75 | function has been fulfilled. God's Son has found a witness unto his | sinlessness and not his sin. How little need you give the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:26.7 | again. His holiness gives life to you, who cannot die because his | sinlessness is known to God and can no more be sacrificed by you than |

| W1:181.3 | let all such little focuses give way to our great need to let our | sinlessness become apparent. We instruct our minds that it is this we |
| W1:181.5 | enter in the time of practicing with one intent—to look upon the | sinlessness within. We recognize that we have lost this goal if anger |
| W1:181.8 | range goals. As each obstruction seems to block the vision of our | sinlessness, we seek but for surcease an instant from the misery the |
| W1:181.10 | Which knows no sin and never could conceive of anything without Its | sinlessness. We seek for this remembrance as we turn our minds to |
| W1:181.10 | present. And we give our trust to the experience we ask for now. Our | sinlessness is but the Will of God. This instant is our willing one |
| W1:191.4 | free. In this one truth are all illusions gone. In this one fact is | sinlessness proclaimed to be forever part of everything, the central |
| W1:193.2 | it. It is He Who answers what His Son would contradict and keeps his | sinlessness forever safe. |
| W1:198.14 | is his? And who could dream of offering forgiveness to the Son of | Sinlessness Itself, so like to Him Whose Son he is, that to behold |
| W2:WF.5 | Now must you share His function and forgive whom He has saved, whose | sinlessness He sees, and whom He honors as the Son of God. |
| W2:223.2 | For we who are Your holy Son are sinless. We would look upon our | sinlessness, for guilt proclaims that we are not Your Son. And we |
| W2:235.1 | I need but remember that His Love surrounds His Son and keeps his | sinlessness forever perfect to be sure that I am saved and safe |
| W2:235.2 | Father, Your holiness is mine. Your Love created me and made my | sinlessness forever part of You. I have no guilt or sin in me, for |
| W2:247.1 | come and let me look on you. Your loveliness reflects my own. Your | sinlessness is mine. You stand forgiven, and I stand with you. |
| W2:260.1 | me remember You created me. Let me remember my Identity. And let my | sinlessness arise again before Christ's vision, through which I would |
| W2:274.1 | things be as You created them and give Your Son the honor due his | sinlessness, the love of brother to his brother and his friend. |
| W2:WIHS.3 | you but knew how much your Father yearns to have you recognize your | sinlessness, you would not let His Voice appeal in vain nor turn away |
| W2:313.1 | me that I may waken from the dream of guilt and look within upon my | sinlessness which You have kept completely undefiled upon the altar |
| W2:318.1 | which God's Son is saved because salvation's purpose is to find the | sinlessness which God has placed in me. I was created as the thing I |

| W2:334.2 | my brother sinless. This Your Will for me, for thus will I behold my | sinlessness. |
| W2:335.1 | what I would look upon, and this I see and only this. My brother's | sinlessness shows me that I would look upon my own. And I will see |
| W2:335.2 | What could restore Your memory to me except to see my brother's | sinlessness? His holiness reminds me that he was created one with me |
| W2:336.2 | of sin. Then let me, Father, look within and find Your promise of my | sinlessness is kept; Your Word remains unchanged within my mind; Your |
| W2:337.1 | My | sinlessness ensures me perfect peace, eternal safety, everlasting |
| W2:337.1 | learn I need do nothing of myself, for I need but accept my Self, my | sinlessness, created for me, now already mine, to feel God's Love |
| W2:337.2 | You who created me in | sinlessness are not mistaken about what I am. I was mistaken when I |
| W2:341.1 | us, living one with You in brotherhood and Fatherhood complete, in | sinlessness so perfect that the Lord of Sinlessness conceives us as |
| W2:341.1 | and Fatherhood complete, in sinlessness so perfect that the Lord of | Sinlessness conceives us as His Son, a universe of thought completing |
| W2:341.2 | Let us not then attack our | sinlessness. For it contains the Word of God to us, and in its kind |
| W2:348.1 | when Your eternal promise goes with me? Surrounding me is perfect | sinlessness. What can I fear when You created me in holiness as |
| W2:WAI.1 | God Himself. I am the Heaven where His love resides. I am His holy | sinlessness itself, for in my purity abides His own. |
| W2:351.1 | my brother sinless as Your holy Son. And with this choice I see my | sinlessness, my everlasting Comforter and Friend beside me, and my |
| W2:352.1 | Forgiveness looks on | sinlessness alone and judges not. Through this I come to You. |
| W2:357.1 | the way to You as You appointed that the way shall be: “Behold his | sinlessness, and be you healed.” |
| W2:360.1 | and in holiness do we remain. Your Son is like to You in perfect | sinlessness, and with this thought we gladly say “Amen.” |

| M:18.2 | of the reality of the Son of God. Now He can remind the world of | sinlessness, the one unchanged, unchangeable condition of all that |
| M:28.4 | we, God's children, rise up from the dust and look upon our perfect | sinlessness. The song of Heaven sounds around the world, as it is |

| Tx:25.78 | by Heaven's justice? And what could this mean except that they are | sins and not mistakes, forever uncorrectable, and to be met with |
| Tx:25.86 | The little problems that you keep and hide become your secret | sins because you did not choose to let them be removed for you. And |
| Tx:26.8 | the world would lay upon him. Could it be that you could make his | sins reality and sacrifice his Father's Will for him? |
| Tx:26.54 | Sins are beliefs which you impose between your brother and yourself. | |

| Tx:31.28 | Sins are in bodies. They are not perceived in minds. They are not | |

| W1:64.2 | place where you learn to forgive yourself what you think of as your | sins. In this perception, the physical appearance of temptation |
| W1:98.2 | stands in our way, for we have been absolved from errors. All our | sins are washed away by realizing that they were but mistakes. |

| W1:126.3 | tolerance, which you bestow on one unworthy of the gift because his | sins have lowered him beneath a true equality with you. He has no |
| W1:133.11 | His ineffectual mistakes appear as | sins to him because he looks upon the tarnished as his own—the rust |
| W1:133.11 | of his guide. This guidance teaches it is error to believe that | sins are but mistakes, for who would suffer for his sins if this were |
| W1:133.11 | to believe that sins are but mistakes, for who would suffer for his | sins if this were so? |
| W1:134.4 | Because you think your | sins are real, you look on pardon as deception. For it is impossible |
| W1:134.5 | guilt is everlasting. Those who are forgiven from the view their | sins are real are pitifully mocked and twice condemned—first by |
| W1:137.5 | of truth but not in truth itself. Just as forgiveness overlooks all | sins that never were accomplished, healing but removes illusions that |
| W1:151.9 | whispers of the ego can He hear? What could convince Him that your | sins are real? |
| W1:158.9 | Thus are his | sins forgiven him, for Christ has vision which has power to overlook |
| W1:158.10 | If he be lost in sin, so must you be; if you see light in him, your | sins have been forgiven by yourself. Each brother whom you meet today |
| W1:161.12 | now conceals from you the sight of one who can forgive you all your | sins, whose sacred hands can take the nails which pierce your own |
| W1:164.3 | to spend with Him beyond the world. How easily are all your seeming | sins forgot and all your sorrows unremembered. On this day is grief |
| W1:181.1 | of the Self that lies beyond your own mistakes and past his seeming | sins as well as yours. |
| W1:181.2 | the one you held before. Remove your focus on your brother's | sins, and you experience the peace that comes from faith in |
| W1:181.2 | its only sure support from what you see in others past their | sins. For their mistakes, if focused on, are witnesses to sins in |
| W1:181.2 | past their sins. For their mistakes, if focused on, are witnesses to | sins in you. And you will not transcend their sight and see the |
| W1:181.5 | this goal if anger blocks our way in any form. And if a brother's | sins occur to us, our narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn |

| W1:195.8 | some things and yet retain some other things still locked away as | sins. When your forgiveness is complete, you will have total |
| W1:197.6 | you has been withdrawn. But learn to let forgiveness take away the | sins you think you see outside yourself, and you can never think the |
| W2:WF.1 | thought your brother did to you has not occurred. It does not pardon | sins and make them real. It sees there was no sin. And in this view |
| W2:WF.1 | them real. It sees there was no sin. And in this view are all your | sins forgiven. What is sin except a false idea about God's Son? |
| W2:278.1 | the laws the world obeys must I obey—the frailties and the | sins which I perceive are real and cannot be escaped. If I am bound |

| Tx:2.48 | The misuse of will engenders a | situation which in the extreme becomes altogether intolerable. Pain |
| Tx:2.76 | arises whenever the will to do conflicts with what you do. This | situation arises in two ways: |
| Tx:2.79 | cases, the will and the behavior are out of accord, resulting in a | situation in which you are doing what you do not will. This arouses a |
| Tx:2.87 | loveless, having willed without love. This is precisely the | situation for which the Atonement was offered. The need for the |
| Tx:3.66 | himself, projects his delusion onto others, and then perceives the | situation as one in which people are literally fighting him for his |
| Tx:4.12 | You can because of the nature of yours. Egos can clash in any | situation, but Souls cannot clash at all. If you perceive a teacher |
| Tx:4.14 | dispute this, everything you do will be fearful, particularly any | situation which lends itself to the “superiority-inferiority” |
| Tx:4.80 | to heal him and yourselves. Be always unwilling to adapt to any | situation in which miracle-mindedness is unthinkable. That state in |
| Tx:4.83 | you associate yourself with the ego, you do not perceive the whole | situation as it is. Only your allegiance to it gives the ego any |
| Tx:4.105 | much on behalf of your own rehabilitation and that of others if in a | situation calling for healing you think of it this way: |
| Tx:5.12 | Transfer depends on common elements in the old learning and the new | situation to which it is transferred. Perception is not knowledge, |
| Tx:5.64 | regard sin as a lack you will automatically attempt to remedy the | situation. And you will succeed. The ego regards this as doom, but |
| Tx:5.87 | necessary to keep his fear in tolerable bounds as he perceived the | situation. Therefore, he emphasized that the point in development at |
| Tx:6.52 | remember, however, that when you put yourselves in an impossible | situation, you believed that the impossible was possible. |
| Tx:6.53 | kindest solution possible to what you have made. In an impossible | situation, you can develop your abilities to the point where they can |
| Tx:6.54 | You are in an impossible | situation only because you thought it was possible to be in one. You |
| Tx:6.54 | thought it was possible to be in one. You would be in an impossible | situation if God showed you your perfection and proved to you that |
| Tx:7.25 | you always,” I meant it literally. I am not absent to anyone in any | situation. Because I am always with you, you are the way and the |
| Tx:8.60 | he must become depressed. Being faced with an impossible learning | situation, regardless of why it is impossible, is the most depressing |
| Tx:8.92 | of which you are totally unaware. You have set this strange | situation up so that it is completely impossible to escape from it |
| Tx:9.12 | By following it, you will merely place yourself in an impossible | situation to which the ego always leads you. The ego's plan is to |
| Tx:9.25 | ego is involved, it always attempts to gain some support from the | situation. Seeking to get something for himself, the unhealed healer |
| Tx:9.28 | is the only therapist. He makes healing perfectly clear in any | situation in which he is the Guide. The human therapist can only let |
| Tx:9.29 | is a guide to behavior. Being a very direct and very simple learning | situation, it provides the Guide who tells you what to do. If you do |
| Tx:11.43 | and regarding yourself as weaker, you attempt to “equalize” the | situation you have made. You use attack to do so because you believe |
| Tx:11.44 | you are still strong. You therefore have no need to “equalize” the | situation to establish your strength. |
| Tx:11.47 | your resource because, of yourself, you cannot learn. The learning | situation in which you placed yourself is impossible, and in this |
| Tx:11.47 | situation in which you placed yourself is impossible, and in this | situation you clearly require a special Teacher and a special |
| Tx:11.51 | But it is not so yet and will not be so until the whole learning | situation as you have set it up is reversed. |
| Tx:11.61 | miracles when you have applied them to all situations. There is no | situation to which miracles do not apply, and by applying them to all |
| Tx:16.3 | and do not lose sight of it, however tempted you may be to judge any | situation and to determine your response by judging it. Focus your |
| Tx:17.47 | grows increasingly beneficent and joyous. But at the beginning, the | situation is experienced as very precarious. A relationship |
| Tx:17.53 | upon a campaign to blame each other for the discomfort of the | situation in which you find yourselves. And by this lack of thanks |
| Tx:17.57 | There are certain very specific guidelines He provides for any | situation, but remember that you do not yet realize their universal |
| Tx:17.57 | Therefore it is essential at this point to use them in each | situation separately, until you can more safely look beyond each |
| Tx:17.57 | situation separately, until you can more safely look beyond each | situation in an understanding far broader than you now possess. |
| Tx:17.58 | In any | situation in which you are uncertain, the first thing to consider, |
| Tx:17.58 | determine the outcome. In the ego's procedure, this is reversed. The | situation becomes the determiner of the outcome, which can be |
| Tx:17.59 | Without a clear cut positive goal, set at the outset, the | situation just seems to happen and makes no sense until it has |
| Tx:17.60 | advance what you want to happen is simply that you will perceive the | situation as a means to make it happen. You will therefore make every |
| Tx:17.60 | the goal. The false becomes the useless from this point of view. The | situation now has meaning, but only because the goal has made it |
| Tx:17.61 | The goal of truth has further practical advantages. If the | situation is used for truth and sanity, its outcome must be peace. |
| Tx:17.61 | the opposite of the ego's way of looking, for the ego believes the | situation brings the experience. The Holy Spirit knows that the |
| Tx:17.61 | the situation brings the experience. The Holy Spirit knows that the | situation is as the goal determines it and is experienced according |
| Tx:17.62 | goal of truth is set, there faith must be. The Holy Spirit sees the | situation as a whole. The goal establishes the fact that everyone |
| Tx:17.62 | “solving” conflict through fragmentation and does not perceive the | situation as a whole. Therefore, it seeks to split off segments of |
| Tx:17.62 | as a whole. Therefore, it seeks to split off segments of the | situation and deal with them separately, for it has faith in |
| Tx:17.63 | Confronted with any aspect of the | situation which seems to be difficult, the ego will attempt to take |
| Tx:17.63 | it rightfully belonged. Thus do you lose the understanding of the | situation the goal of truth would bring. For fantasy solutions bring |
| Tx:17.64 | The substitutes for aspects of the | situation are the witnesses to your lack of faith. They demonstrate |
| Tx:17.64 | lack of faith. They demonstrate that you did not believe that the | situation and the problem were in the same place. The problem was the |
| Tx:17.64 | the faith it could be solved, the problem would be gone. And the | situation would have been meaningful to you because the interference |
| Tx:17.65 | There is no problem in any | situation that faith will not solve. There is no shift in any aspect |
| Tx:17.65 | must be where something has been done and where you see it done. A | situation is a relationship, being the joining of thoughts. If |
| Tx:17.66 | intrusion on the relationship, an error in your thoughts about the | situation, which then becomes the justification for your lack of |
| Tx:17.67 | Only what you have not given can be lacking in any | situation. But remember this: the goal of holiness was set for your |
| Tx:17.67 | for you will see that peace and faith will not come separately. What | situation can you be in without faith and remain faithful to each |
| Tx:17.68 | Every | situation in which you find yourself is but a means to meet the |
| Tx:17.69 | you lack faith in anyone to fulfill, and perfectly, his part in any | situation dedicated in advance to truth, your dedication is divided. |
| Tx:17.71 | but there is a Cause for faith. That Cause has entered any | situation which shares Its purpose. The light of truth shines from |
| Tx:17.71 | shares Its purpose. The light of truth shines from the center of the | situation and touches everyone to whom the situation's purpose calls. |
| Tx:17.71 | the situation's purpose calls. It calls to everyone. There is no | situation which does not involve your whole relationship in every |
| Tx:17.71 | part. You can leave nothing of yourself outside it and keep the | situation holy. For it shares the purpose of your whole relationship |
| Tx:17.72 | Enter each | situation with the faith that you give to each other, or you are |
| Tx:17.72 | yours for His, the goal He placed there was extended to every | situation in which you enter or will ever enter. And every situation |
| Tx:17.72 | to every situation in which you enter or will ever enter. And every | situation was thus made free of the past, which would have made it |
| Tx:17.73 | You call for faith because of Him Who walks with you in every | situation. You are no longer wholly insane, nor no longer alone. For |
| Tx:17.74 | nothing more than a special case or an extreme example of what every | situation is meant to be. The meaning which the Holy Spirit's purpose |
| Tx:17.74 | which the Holy Spirit's purpose has given it is also given to every | situation. It calls forth just the same suspension of faithlessness, |
| Tx:17.74 | demonstration of the meaning of every relationship and every | situation, seen as a whole. Faith has accepted every aspect of the |
| Tx:17.74 | situation, seen as a whole. Faith has accepted every aspect of the | situation, and faithlessness has not forced any exclusion on it. It |
| Tx:17.74 | and faithlessness has not forced any exclusion on it. It is a | situation of perfect peace simply because you have let it be what it |
| Tx:17.75 | not attack it, do not interrupt its coming. Let it encompass every | situation and bring you peace. Not even faith is asked of you, for |
| Tx:17.76 | Would you not want to make a holy instant of every | situation? For such is the gift of faith, freely given wherever |
| Tx:17.78 | to you. His salvation is your only purpose. See only this in every | situation, and it will be a means for bringing only this. |

| Tx:19.2 | Every | situation properly perceived becomes an opportunity to heal the Son |
| Tx:19.88 | When anything seems to you to be a source of fear, when any | situation strikes you with terror and makes your body tremble and the |
| Tx:20.71 | it is you who need his strength. There is no problem, no event or | situation, no perplexity that vision will not solve. All is redeemed |
| Tx:21.17 | not his choice. His power of decision is the determiner of every | situation in which he seems to find himself by chance or accident. No |
| Tx:22.52 | meaning, and so the mind is dedicated to serve illusions. This is a | situation so contradictory and so impossible that anyone who chooses |
| Tx:25.28 | chooses to avail himself of what is given him, then will he see each | situation that he thought before was means to justify his anger |
| Tx:26.11 | suffer loss and make a sacrifice that you might gain. And when the | situation is worked out so no one loses, is the problem gone, because |
| Tx:29.52 | is perceived and recognized. Be it a body or a thing, a place, a | situation or a circumstance, an object owned or wanted, or a right |
| Tx:30.82 | upon the world as with one purpose, changelessly established. And no | situation can affect its aim but must be in accord with it. For only |
| Tx:30.82 | be in accord with it. For only if its aim could change with every | situation could each one be open to interpretation which is different |
| Tx:31.26 | that it becomes your first response to all temptation and to every | situation that occurs. Learn this and learn it well, for it is here |

| W1:20.5 | effort to remember. The extra repetitions should be applied to any | situation, person, or event which upsets you. You can see them |
| W1:24.1 | In no | situation which arises do you realize the outcome that would make you |
| W1:24.1 | the result. What you do is determined by your perception of the | situation, and that perception is wrong. It is inevitable, then, that |
| W1:24.1 | serve your own best interests. Yet they are your only goal in any | situation which is correctly perceived. Otherwise, you will not |
| W1:24.5 | Name each | situation that occurs to you, and enumerate carefully as many goals |
| W1:24.6 | In the | situation involving _____, I would like _____ to happen, and _____ to |
| W1:24.7 | if some of them do not appear to you to be directly related to the | situation or even to be inherent in it at all. |
| W1:24.8 | recognize that you are making a large number of demands of the | situation which have nothing to do with it. You will also recognize |
| W1:24.8 | disappointment in connection with some of your goals however the | situation turns out. |
| W1:24.9 | the list of as many hoped-for goals as possible for each unresolved | situation that crosses your mind, say to yourself: |
| W1:24.10 | I do not perceive my own best interests in this | situation, |
| W1:26.7 | First, name the | situation: |
| W1:26.11 | have some five or six distressing possibilities available for each | situation you use and quite possibly more. It is much more helpful to |
| W1:26.12 | As the list of anticipated outcomes for each | situation continues, you will probably find some of them, especially |
| W1:32.6 | The idea for today should also be applied immediately to any | situation which may distress you. Apply the idea by telling yourself: |
| W1:32.7 | I have invented this | situation as I see it. |
| W1:33.3 | of today's idea should also be made immediately when any | situation arises which tempts you to become disturbed. For these |
| W1:34.6 | I could see peace in this | situation instead of what I now see in it. |
| W1:34.8 | feelings of depression, anxiety or worry [or my thoughts about this | situation, personality, or event] with peace. |
| W1:35.8 | and events in which you figure cross your mind. Pick up any specific | situation that occurs to you, identify the descriptive term or terms |
| W1:35.8 | or terms which you feel are applicable to your reactions to that | situation, and use them in applying today's idea. After you have |
| W1:38.4 | you see it. Try to make as little distinction as possible between a | situation that is difficult for you and one that is difficult for |
| W1:38.4 | for you and one that is difficult for someone else. Identify the | situation specifically and also the name of the person concerned. Use |
| W1:38.5 | In the | situation involving ______ in which I see myself, there is nothing |
| W1:38.5 | I see myself, there is nothing that my holiness cannot do. In the | situation involving ______ in which _____ sees himself, there is |
| W1:47.6 | related to your own sense of inadequacy. It is obvious that any | situation that causes you concern is associated with feelings of |

| W1:R1.5 | is part of you and requires only that you be there to embrace any | situation in which you are. And finally you will learn that there is |
| W1:61.7 | for a short while, preferably with your eyes closed if the | situation permits. Let a few related thoughts come to you, and repeat |
| W1:71.4 | and in other things. Another person will yet serve better; another | situation will yet offer success. |
| W1:74.9 | very specifically, identify the particular person or persons and the | situation or situations involved, and tell yourself: |
| W1:77.9 | Ask for them whenever a | situation arises in which they are called for. You will recognize |
| W1:79.1 | because you cannot recognize that it has been solved. This is the | situation of the world. The problem of separation, which is really |
| W1:79.5 | with such varied content that they confront you with an impossible | situation. Dismay and depression are inevitable as you regard them. |
| W1:93.15 | If a | situation arises that seems to be disturbing, quickly dispel the |
| W2:292.1 | outcome of all problems we perceive, all trials we see, and every | situation that we meet. Yet is the ending certain. For God's Will is |
| M:I.2 | It is a method of conversion. This is not done by words alone. Any | situation must be to you a chance to teach others what you are and |
| M:I.3 | believe the relationship of others is to you. In the formal teaching | situation, these questions may be totally unrelated to what you think |
| M:I.3 | you are teaching. Yet it is impossible not to use the content of any | situation on behalf of what you really teach and therefore learn. To |
| M:I.4 | would its curriculum be? Into this hopeless and closed learning | situation which teaches nothing but despair and death, God sends His |
| M:2.5 | When pupil and teacher come together, a teaching-learning | situation begins. For the teacher is not really the one who does the |

| M:3.1 | teachers of God have no set teaching level. Each teaching-learning | situation involves a different relationship at the beginning, |
| M:3.2 | Each of them has the potential for becoming a teaching-learning | situation. Perhaps the seeming strangers in the elevator will smile |

| M:4.1 | born in the holy relationship toward which the teaching-learning | situation is geared, become characteristic of all teachers of God who |
| M:9.1 | God's teachers. This may or may not involve changes in the external | situation. Remember that no one is where he is by accident, and |

| Tx:8.82 | not the dead, because rest comes from waking, not from sleeping. | Sleep is withdrawing; waking is joining. Dreams are illusions of |
| Tx:8.82 | sleeping under its guidance. Yet the Holy Spirit, too, has use for | sleep and can use dreams on behalf of waking if you will let Him. |
| Tx:8.83 | How you wake is the sign of how you have used | sleep. To whom did you give it? Under which teacher did you place it? |

| W1:42.4 | about you. Then close your eyes and repeat the idea again, quite | slowly. After this, try to think of nothing except thoughts which |

| Tx:2.82 | this is an expression of fear. Then say to yourself that you must | somehow have willed not to love, or the fear which arises from |
| Tx:4.30 | with sacrifice, then, you give only because you believe that you are | somehow getting something better so that you can do without the thing |
| Tx:17.32 | the ego is insane. Yet the special relationship still seems to you | somehow to be “different.” Yet we have looked at it far closer than |

| Tx:21.10 | the body, beyond the sun and stars, past everything you see and yet | somehow familiar, is an arc of golden light that stretches as you |
| Tx:25.44 | upon. Dimness seems better—easier to see and better recognized. | Somehow, the vague and more obscure seems easier to look upon; less |
| Tx:31.2 | strain at all. This cannot be confusing, yet you are confused. For | somehow you believe that what is totally confused is easier to learn |
| Tx:31.55 | advantage of the shifting to the second from the first is that you | somehow entered in the choice by your decision. But this gain is paid |
| W1:163.7 | in believing it. For it implies that God was once alive and | somehow perished, killed, apparently, by those who did not want him |

| Tx:4.92 | How can you teach | someone the value of something he has deliberately thrown away? He |
| Tx:5.44 | grow towards it. It is possible, with great effort, to understand | someone else to some extent and to be quite helpful to him, but the |
| Tx:7.42 | “special” in the healer which he believes he can offer as a gift to | someone who does not have it. He may believe that the gift comes from |
| Tx:7.50 | to take away. It literally believes that every time it deprives | someone of something, it has increased. We have spoken often of the |
| Tx:8.22 | to learn and understand why you have believed that when you met | someone else, you had thought that he was someone else. And every |
| Tx:8.22 | believed that when you met someone else, you had thought that he was | someone else. And every holy encounter in which you enter fully will |
| Tx:8.101 | of energy which you expend in denying truth. What would you say of | someone who persisted in attempting the impossible, believing that to |
| Tx:10.2 | Yet what would you say to | someone who really believed this question involves conflict? If you |
| Tx:10.88 | and monsters and dragons, and they are terrified. Yet if they ask | someone they trust for the real meaning of what they perceive and are |
| Tx:11.1 | the motives of others is hazardous to you. If you decide that | someone is really trying to attack you or desert you or enslave you, |
| Tx:12.27 | ego's dictates, you will react to your brothers as though they were | someone else, and this will surely prevent you from perceiving them |
| Tx:15.6 | Even when it attacks so savagely that it tries to take the life of | someone who hears it temporarily as the only voice, it speaks of hell |
| Tx:15.58 | that strength comes from another, and what you gain he loses. | Someone must always lose if you perceive yourself as weak. Yet there |
| Tx:15.74 | and must be anger. All anger is nothing more than an attempt to make | someone feel guilty, and this attempt is the only basis which the ego |
| Tx:15.96 | has been removed. For if there is sacrifice, as you are convinced, | someone must pay and someone must get. And the only question which |
| Tx:15.96 | if there is sacrifice, as you are convinced, someone must pay and | someone must get. And the only question which remains to be decided |
| Tx:16.70 | something “evil” in the past to which you cling and for which must | someone else atone. |
| Tx:19.74 | you in the belief that for your message of attack and guilt will | someone other than yourself suffer. And even if you suffer, yet |
| Tx:19.74 | will someone other than yourself suffer. And even if you suffer, yet | someone else will suffer more. The great deceiver recognizes that |
| Tx:24.5 | He gave His Son. What else could justify attack? For who could hate | someone whose Self is his and whom He knows? Only the special could |
| Tx:24.6 | But what is different calls for judgment, and this must come from | someone “better,” someone incapable of being like what he condemns, |
| Tx:24.6 | calls for judgment, and this must come from someone “better,” | someone incapable of being like what he condemns, “above” it, sinless |
| Tx:25.60 | The whole belief that | someone loses but reflects the underlying tenet God must be insane. |
| Tx:25.60 | tenet, “Sin is real and rules the world”? For every little gain must | someone lose and pay exact amount in blood and suffering. For |
| Tx:25.65 | sinners see justice only as their punishment, perhaps sustained by | someone else but not escaped. The laws of sin demand a victim. Who it |
| Tx:25.66 | keep and not give up. So is the victim seen as partly you, with | someone else by far the greater part. And in the total cost, the |
| Tx:25.83 | an attack of any kind. What order can there be in miracles, unless | someone deserves to suffer more and others less? And is this justice |
| Tx:26.11 | each one, regardless of the form it seems to take, is a demand that | someone suffer loss and make a sacrifice that you might gain. And |
| Tx:26.87 | belief you are is but another form of the idea you are deprived by | someone not yourself. Projection of the cause of sacrifice is at the |
| Tx:26.88 | an innocence which is not Theirs but yours alone and at the cost of | someone else's guilt. Can innocence be purchased by the giving of |
| Tx:26.88 | guilt. Can innocence be purchased by the giving of your guilt to | someone else? And is this innocence which your attack on him attempts |
| Tx:26.88 | Whatever way the game of guilt is played, there must be loss. | Someone must lose his innocence that someone else can take it from |
| Tx:26.88 | is played, there must be loss. Someone must lose his innocence that | someone else can take it from him, making it his own. |
| Tx:27.23 | a mind so split, must be a way to punish sins you think are yours in | someone else. And thus does he become your victim, not your brother, |
| Tx:27.44 | denies himself? The Holy Spirit speaks to you. He does not speak to | someone else. Yet by your listening, His Voice extends because you |
| Tx:27.69 | from a dream the world is dreaming for him. He becomes a part of | someone else's dream. He cannot choose to waken from a dream he did |
| Tx:28.18 | a dream in which you were an alien to yourself and but a part of | someone else's dream. |
| Tx:28.43 | not, for what is joined in Him is always one. No one is sick if | someone else accepts his union with him. His desire to be a sick and |
| Tx:28.43 | cannot remain without a witness or a cause. And both are gone if | someone wills to be united with him. He has dream[ed] that he was |
| Tx:29.21 | be savior from the dream he made, that he be free of it. He must see | someone else as not a body, one with him, without the wall the world |
| Tx:29.27 | unfulfilled as you perceive the function. It can be in you or | someone else, but where it is perceived, it will be there it is |
| Tx:29.28 | When you are angry, is it not because | someone has failed to fill the function you allotted him? And does |
| Tx:29.68 | it thinks. They do not seek to prove the dream is being dreamed by | someone else. And in these dreams a melody is heard which everyone |
| Tx:31.3 | not your own, your thoughts do not belong to you, and even you are | someone else. |
| Tx:31.54 | chose your brother be, alternatives were there to choose among, and | someone must have first decided on the one to choose and let the |
| Tx:31.71 | yourself because it was not made for you alone. Born as a gift for | someone not perceived to be yourself, it has been given you. For your |
| W1:25.4 | you do understand that a telephone is for the purpose of talking to | someone who is not physically in your immediate vicinity. What you do |
| W1:37.2 | thinking. Any other way of seeing will inevitably demand payment of | someone or something. As a result, the perceiver will lose. Nor will |
| W1:38.3 | or suffering in any form that you happen to think of in yourself or | someone else. We will make no distinctions because there are no |
| W1:38.4 | a situation that is difficult for you and one that is difficult for | someone else. Identify the situation specifically and also the name |
| W1:38.9 | in its original form unless a specific problem concerning you or | someone else arises or comes to mind. In that event, use the more |
| W1:43.12 | in which you find yourself during the day. When you are with | someone else, for example, try to remember to tell him silently, |
| W1:71.2 | salvation centers around holding grievances. It maintains that if | someone else spoke or acted differently, if some external |
| W1:78.5 | for your grievances and lay the grievances aside and look at him. | Someone perhaps you fear and even hate; someone you think you love |
| W1:78.5 | aside and look at him. Someone perhaps you fear and even hate; | someone you think you love who angers you; someone you call a friend, |
| W1:78.5 | you fear and even hate; someone you think you love who angers you; | someone you call a friend, but whom you see as difficult at times or |
| W1:93.15 | these thoughts again. Should you be tempted to become angry with | someone, tell him silently: |
| W1:95.20 | idea as frequently as possible and understand each time you do so, | someone hears the voice of hope, the stirring of the truth within his |
| W1:97.6 | will be welcome. And they will increase in healing power each time | someone accepts them as his thoughts and uses them to heal. |
| W1:121.10 | Begin the longer practice periods by thinking of | someone you do not like, who seems to irritate you or to cause regret |
| W1:126.4 | when it is withheld. The sin which you forgive is not your own. | Someone apart from you committed it. And if you then are gracious |
| W1:126.6 | perceive it. It is not a means for your release from what you see in | someone other than yourself. It has no power to restore your unity |
| W1:133.8 | Next, if you choose to take a thing away from | someone else, you will have nothing left. This is because when you |
| W1:134.9 | open wide in welcome. When you feel that you are tempted to accuse | someone of sin in any form, do not allow your mind to dwell on what |
| W1:193.11 | How can you tell when you are seeing wrong or | someone else is failing to perceive the lesson he should learn? Does |
| W2:315.1 | conceive. A brother smiles upon another, and my heart is gladdened. | Someone speaks a word of gratitude or mercy, and my mind perceives |
| M:I.2 | to teach on the basis of what you want to learn. You cannot give to | someone else, and this you learn through teaching. Teaching is but a |
| M:1.1 | choice in which he did not see his interests as apart from | someone else's. Once he has done that, his road is established and |
| M:1.3 | heard the Call. He has become a savior by his answering. He has seen | someone else as himself. He has therefore found his own salvation and |
| M:10.4 | of judgment. Make then but one more judgment. It is this—there is | Someone with you Whose judgment is perfect. He does know all the |

| Tx:2.87 | in a position where you need Atonement, because you have done | something loveless, having willed without love. This is precisely the |

| Tx:3.46 | made the body possible because you must perceive something and with | something. This is why perception involves an exchange or |
| Tx:3.52 | words “create” and “make” have been greatly confused. When you make | something, you make it out of a sense of lack or need. Anything that |
| Tx:3.52 | a specific purpose and has no true generalizability. When you make | something to fill a perceived lack, which is obviously why you would |
| Tx:3.54 | and not a product of [knowing]. Images are symbolic and stand for | something else. The current emphasis on “changing your image” merely |
| Tx:3.56 | Prayer is a way of asking for | something. Prayer is the medium of miracles, but the only meaningful |
| Tx:3.56 | is nothing more than a request that we may be able to recognize | something we already have. In electing to perceive instead of to |
| Tx:3.69 | the power of God, but you have lost it. Fortunately, when you lose | something, it does not mean that the “something” has gone. It merely |
| Tx:4.26 | Surprise is a reasonable response to the unfamiliar but hardly to | something that has occurred with such persistence. I am using your |
| Tx:4.26 | recognize that it need not work that way. Why are you surprised that | something happened in the dim past when it is so clearly happening |
| Tx:4.27 | is because they regard them as part of themselves. No one disowns | something he regards as a very real part of himself. Man reacts to |
| Tx:4.30 | then, you give only because you believe that you are somehow getting | something better so that you can do without the thing you give. |
| Tx:4.41 | it is not understandable to the ego, which interprets it as if | something outside is inside, and this does not mean anything. The |
| Tx:4.59 | always arises ultimately from a sense of being deprived of | something you want and do not have. Know you are deprived of nothing |
| Tx:4.73 | it does not mean that you should seek blindly and desperately for | something you would not recognize. Meaningful seeking is consciously |
| Tx:4.85 | from the illusions you have made, your great debt to each other is | something you must never forget. It is exactly the same debt that you |
| Tx:4.92 | How can you teach someone the value of | something he has deliberately thrown away? He must have thrown it |
| Tx:5.10 | as the Healer, the Comforter, and the Guide. He is also described as | something “separate,” apart from the Father and from the Son. I |
| Tx:6.28 | both of yourself and your brothers. The process begins by excluding | something [you think] exists in you which you do not want and leads |
| Tx:6.41 | You are only love, but when you denied this, you made what you are | something you must learn. We said before that the message of the |
| Tx:6.48 | ego feels badly in need of allies though not of brothers. Perceiving | something alien to itself in your mind, the ego turns to the body, |
| Tx:6.86 | is still a lesson in thought reversal since it implies that there is | something you must be vigilant against. It has advanced far from the |
| Tx:7.6 | and the temporary into the timeless. He can therefore tell you | something about this last step, although this one you must know |
| Tx:7.13 | of others. “Interpersonal” has a similar error in that it refers to | something that exists among different or separate people. When we |
| Tx:7.20 | subject would not do anything. Given variable motivation, he will do | something, but you cannot understand what it is. |
| Tx:7.26 | teach. Yet you are always teaching. You must therefore be teaching | something else as well, even though the ego does not know what it is. |
| Tx:7.34 | Perceived improperly, it induces a perception of conflict with | something else, as all incorrect perception does. Properly perceived, |
| Tx:7.42 | healer that everyone else does not share with him. Magic always sees | something “special” in the healer which he believes he can offer as a |
| Tx:7.42 | is quite evident that he does not understand God if he thinks he has | something that others [do not]. You might well ask, then, why some |
| Tx:7.43 | to help. He is conflicted and unstable, but at times he is offering | something to the Sonship, and the only thing the Sonship can accept |
| Tx:7.47 | he is not grateful to them. This is because he thinks he is giving | something to them and is not receiving something equally desirable in |
| Tx:7.47 | he thinks he is giving something to them and is not receiving | something equally desirable in return. His teaching is limited, |
| Tx:7.50 | away. It literally believes that every time it deprives someone of | something, it has increased. We have spoken often of the increase of |
| Tx:7.54 | perceive it as fragmented. It is impossible, however, for you to see | something in part of it that you will not attribute to all of it. |
| Tx:7.61 | only reason you find this difficult is because you think there is | something else. Belief does not require vigilance unless it is |
| Tx:7.61 | had not believed the untrue. You cannot deny that, when you believe | something, you have made it true for you. |
| Tx:7.67 | that you have not judged sanity as wholly desirable. If you want | something else, you will make something else, but because it is |
| Tx:7.67 | as wholly desirable. If you want something else, you will make | something else, but because it is something else, it will attack your |
| Tx:7.67 | want something else, you will make something else, but because it is | something else, it will attack your thought system and divide your |
| Tx:7.78 | attack unless you perceived it as a means of depriving you of | something you want. Yet you cannot lose anything unless you did not |
| Tx:7.82 | of God. To the ego, the law is perceived as a way of getting rid of | something it does not want. To the Holy Spirit, it is the fundamental |
| Tx:7.85 | his confusion. A second fallacy is the idea that you can get rid of | something you do not want by giving it away. Giving it is how you |
| Tx:8.35 | do not see it, because they prefer the delusion. Judging truth as | something they do not want, they perceive deception and block |
| Tx:8.36 | on yours. Alone we can do nothing, but together our wills fuse into | something whose power is far beyond the power of its separate parts. |
| Tx:8.53 | You are accepting it simply by the belief that attack can get you | something you want. If you did not believe this, the idea of attack |
| Tx:8.71 | ceasing, so that you will continue to hope that it can yet offer you | something. |
| Tx:8.78 | You might well ask how the voice of | something which does not exist can be so insistent. Have you |
| Tx:8.78 | so insistent. Have you seriously considered the distorting power of | something you want, even if it is not true? You have had many |
| Tx:8.92 | this kind of association means is that you are arbitrarily endowing | something quite beyond your awareness with something you do not want. |
| Tx:8.92 | are arbitrarily endowing something quite beyond your awareness with | something you do not want. It is evident, then, that you are judging |
| Tx:8.92 | something you do not want. It is evident, then, that you are judging | something of which you are totally unaware. You have set this strange |
| Tx:8.98 | His task is not to make anything for you.] He cannot make you want | something you do not want. When you ask the Universal Giver for what |
| Tx:8.107 | Everyone who has ever tried to use prayer to request | something has experienced what appears to be failure. This is not |
| Tx:9.14 | we once said that miracles are natural, and when they do not occur, | something has gone wrong. |
| Tx:9.25 | attempts to gain some support from the situation. Seeking to get | something for himself, the unhealed healer does not know how to give |
| Tx:9.31 | joy even though you are not experiencing joy yourself, there must be | something in you that is capable of producing it. If it is in you and |
| Tx:9.54 | true. When grandeur slips away from you, you have replaced it with | something you have made. Perhaps it is the belief in littleness; |
| Tx:9.68 | Unless you know | something, you cannot dissociate it. Knowledge therefore precedes |
| Tx:9.71 | precludes the acceptance of God's gift, because you have accepted | something else in its place. If you understand that the misuse of |
| Tx:9.73 | You make it only because you still believe that it can get you | something you want. It follows, then, that you want something other |
| Tx:9.73 | it can get you something you want. It follows, then, that you want | something other than peace of mind, but you have not considered what |
| Tx:10.41 | terms which makes it meaningless. “Dynamics” implies the power to do | something, and the whole separation fallacy lies in the belief that |
| Tx:10.71 | goodness entirely, for that you could not accept, but it always adds | something that is not real to the real, thus confusing illusion and |
| Tx:11.4 | is not perfectly clear. If you maintain that an appeal for help is | something else, you will react to something else, and your response |
| Tx:11.4 | that an appeal for help is something else, you will react to | something else, and your response will be inappropriate to reality as |
| Tx:11.25 | Suppose a brother insists on having you do | something you think you do not want to do. The very fact of his |
| Tx:11.27 | Recognize what does not matter, and if your brothers ask you for | something “outrageous,” do it because it does not matter. Refuse and |
| Tx:11.50 | for that is your will. But you do not realize even yet that there is | something you do will to learn, and that you can learn it because it |
| Tx:11.53 | no gain in the world, for of itself it profits nothing. To invest in | something without profit is surely to impoverish yourself, and the |
| Tx:11.70 | because you have looked within and thought you saw the power to give | something else within yourself. It was only this decision that |
| Tx:11.71 | you really looked upon it. If you are afraid, it is because you saw | something that is not there. Yet in that same place, you could have |
| Tx:11.79 | perfect clarity. It is invisible to you because you are looking at | something else. Yet it is no more up to you to decide what is visible |
| Tx:12.5 | to kill yourself by not knowing who you are and identifying with | something else. You have projected guilt blindly and |
| Tx:12.11 | not believe that, without the ego, you would find within yourself | something you fear even more. You are not afraid of crucifixion. Your |
| Tx:14.26 | It is therefore not a point of view at all but merely a belief in | something that does not exist. It is only this belief that the |
| Tx:14.48 | grasp is the lack of order of difficulty which stamps the miracle as | something that must come from elsewhere, not from here. From the |
| Tx:14.53 | Otherwise, it will attack the form. You who believe you understand | something of the dynamics of the mind, let me assure you that you |
| Tx:15.63 | with all that ever was. Yet as long as you prefer to be | something else, or would attempt to be nothing else and something |
| Tx:15.63 | prefer to be something else, or would attempt to be nothing else and | something else together, the language of communication, which you |
| Tx:15.65 | embarks is special. The ego establishes relationships only to get | something. And it would keep the giver bound to itself through guilt. |
| Tx:15.71 | of what you do. For each one thinks that he has sacrificed | something to the other and hates him for it. Yet this is what he |
| Tx:16.11 | to accomplish what you do not understand. And so there must be | something in you that does understand. |
| Tx:16.31 | love play out a conflict which does not exist. For symbols stand for | something else, and the symbol of love is without meaning if love is |
| Tx:16.70 | partner without the past? Every such choice is made because of | something “evil” in the past to which you cling and for which must |
| Tx:17.65 | you have removed yourself from the solution? Yet faith must be where | something has been done and where you see it done. A situation is a |
| Tx:17.68 | but a means to meet the purpose set for your relationship. See it as | something else, and you are faithless. Use not your faithlessness. |
| Tx:17.77 | is not so. Before, the strain was there but you attributed it to | something else, believing that the “something else” produced it. This |
| Tx:18.10 | joined in truth that only God is there. And He would never accept | something else instead of you. He loves you both, equally and as one. |
| Tx:18.50 | What else is there to give? The belief that you could give and get | something else, something outside yourself, has cost you the |
| Tx:18.50 | to give? The belief that you could give and get something else, | something outside yourself, has cost you the awareness of Heaven and |
| Tx:18.59 | it is a sudden unawareness of the body and a joining of yourself and | something else in which your mind enlarges to encompass it. It |
| Tx:18.59 | accepted this instead of the body and have let yourself be one with | something beyond it simply by not letting your mind be limited by it. |
| Tx:18.60 | in size and seeming quality. Time is not relevant; it can occur with | something past, present, or anticipated. The “something” can be |
| Tx:18.71 | as an idea? Everything you recognize you identify with externals, | something outside itself. You cannot even think of God without a body |
| Tx:18.94 | still further inward but the one you cannot take, transports you to | something completely different. Here is the Source of light—nothing |
| Tx:19.88 | nor symbol should be confused with source, for they must stand for | something other than themselves. Their meaning cannot lie in them but |
| Tx:20.67 | through your desire, as it was lost to you through your desire for | something else. Open the holy place which you closed off by valuing |
| Tx:20.77 | holiness God gave His Son. And never need you think that there is | something else for you to see. |
| Tx:21.22 | gifts belong. Where they should be, you have set up your idols to | something else. This other will, which seems to tell you what must |
| Tx:21.45 | the ego that joined the Holy Spirit's purpose, and so there must be | something else. Think not that this is madness. For this your reason |
| Tx:21.58 | Does not your reason tell you now the question must have come from | something that you do not know but must belong to you? Faith and |
| Tx:21.73 | great enemy which always eludes its murderous attack by turning into | something else. How treacherous does this enemy appear, who changes |
| Tx:21.88 | you did not ask for it. For no one fails to ask for his desire of | something he believes holds out some promise of the power of giving |
| Tx:22.7 | what happened. Denying what you are and firm in faith that you are | something else, this “something else” which you have made to be |
| Tx:23.54 | change of any kind. Perhaps you think the battleground can offer | something that you can win. Can it be anything that offers you a |
| Tx:23.55 | For everything fought for on the battleground is of the body— | something it seems to offer or to own. No one who knows that he has |
| Tx:24.40 | you wish is true for you. Nor is it possible that you can wish for | something and lack faith that it is so. Wishing makes real, as surely |
| Tx:25.38 | your Self your “enemy.” And now you must believe you are not you but | something alien to yourself and “something else,” a “something” to be |
| Tx:25.52 | you make. Do not attempt to see it differently nor twist it into | something it is not. For only this decision can you make. The rest is |

| Tx:9.76 | that no one is separate, and so no one is sick. To believe that a | Son of God can be sick is to believe that part of God can suffer. |
| Tx:9.77 | Do not side with sickness in the presence of a | Son of God even if he believes in it, for your acceptance of God in |
| Tx:9.77 | of his wholeness and remember your Creator with him? To believe a | Son of God is sick is to worship the same idol he does. God created |
| Tx:9.78 | thinks he is. And that is exactly what the ego does perceive in a | Son of God; a sick god, self-created, self-sufficient, very vicious, |
| Tx:9.79 | because of the calm knowledge that each one is part of Him. God's | Son knows no idols, but he does know his Father. Health in this world |
| Tx:9.79 | sick, but my value of you can heal you because the value of God's | Son is one. When I said, “My peace I give unto you,” I meant it. |
| Tx:9.80 | is the denial of illusion, and sickness is an illusion. Yet every | Son of God has the power to deny illusions anywhere in the Kingdom |
| Tx:9.82 | your willingness to accept only the eternal. If God has but one | Son, there is but one God. You share reality with Him, because |
| Tx:9.91 | The miracle is the act of a | Son of God who has laid aside all false gods and who calls on his |
| Tx:9.96 | Sickness and death entered the Mind of God's | Son against His Will. The “attack on God” made His Son think he was |
| Tx:9.96 | the Mind of God's Son against His Will. The “attack on God” made His | Son think he was fatherless, and out of his depression, he made the |
| Tx:9.96 | fact that, although he was a creator, he had been created. Yet the | Son is helpless without the Father, Who alone is his help. We said |
| Tx:9.97 | who are unlike your Creator any more than He could have created a | Son who was unlike Him. If creation is sharing, it cannot create what |
| Tx:9.98 | Son of God, you have not sinned, but you have been much mistaken. Yet | |
| Tx:9.99 | to you from every part of the Sonship because of His love for His | Son. If you hear His message, He has answered you, and you will learn |
| Tx:9.99 | hear aright. The love of God is in everything He created, for His | Son is everywhere. Look with peace upon your brothers, and God will |
| Tx:9.100 | are of God. Would He allow Himself to suffer? And would He offer His | Son anything that is not acceptable to Him? |
| Tx:9.102 | Yet He would not interfere with you, because He would not know His | Son if he were not free. To interfere with you would be to attack |
| Tx:9.102 | you have Him share your insanity? God will never cease to love His | Son, and His Son will never cease to love Him. That was the condition |
| Tx:9.102 | share your insanity? God will never cease to love His Son, and His | Son will never cease to love Him. That was the condition of His Son's |
| Tx:9.103 | Out of your gifts to Him, the Kingdom will be restored to His | Son. His Son removed himself from His gift by refusing to accept what |
| Tx:9.103 | of your gifts to Him, the Kingdom will be restored to His Son. His | Son removed himself from His gift by refusing to accept what had been |
| Tx:9.103 | for his return, for it was created as the dwelling place of God's | Son. You are not at home anywhere else or in any other condition. Do |
| Tx:9.104 | take are refusals to accept creation as it is. If God created His | Son perfect, that is how you must learn to see him to learn of his |
| Tx:9.105 | as His. Yet the real Fatherhood must be acknowledged if the real | Son is to be known. You believe that the sick things which you have |
| Tx:10.2 | conflict, because the ego was made out of the wish of God's | Son to father Him. The ego, then, is nothing more than a delusional |
| Tx:10.5 | by Him, for you will be restoring the holy dwelling place of His | Son, where He wills His Son to be and where he is. In whatever part |
| Tx:10.5 | be restoring the holy dwelling place of His Son, where He wills His | Son to be and where he is. In whatever part of the Mind of God's Son |
| Tx:10.5 | His Son to be and where he is. In whatever part of the Mind of God's | Son you restore this reality, you restore it to yourself. For you |
| Tx:10.9 | and you are meaningless without God. There is no end to God and His | Son, for we are the universe. God is not incomplete, and He is not |
| Tx:10.9 | is not childless. Because He did not will to be alone, He created a | Son like Himself. Do not deny Him His Son, for your unwillingness to |
| Tx:10.9 | will to be alone, He created a Son like Himself. Do not deny Him His | Son, for your unwillingness to accept His Fatherhood has denied you |
| Tx:10.9 | accept His Fatherhood has denied you yours. See His creations as His | Son, for yours were created in honor of Him. The universe of love |
| Tx:10.12 | that to deny is to “not know.” God's Will is that you are His | Son. By denying this, you denied your own will and therefore do not |
| Tx:10.13 | can sleep, but it cannot die. Immortality is His Will for His | Son and His Son's will for himself. God's Son cannot will death for |
| Tx:10.13 | is His Will for His Son and His Son's will for himself. God's | Son cannot will death for himself because His Father is Life and His |
| Tx:10.13 | Son cannot will death for himself because His Father is Life and His | Son is like Him. Creation is your will because it is His. |
| Tx:10.15 | be like Him, Whose Will it is that it be so. God's Will is that His | Son be one, and united with Him in His Oneness. That is why healing |
| Tx:10.16 | step away from this, and every healing thought brings it closer. The | Son of God has both Father and Son because he is both Father and Son. |
| Tx:10.16 | healing thought brings it closer. The Son of God has both Father and | Son because he is both Father and Son. To unite having and being is |
| Tx:10.16 | The Son of God has both Father and Son because he is both Father and | Son. To unite having and being is only to unite your will with His, |
| Tx:10.17 | your brother or in your own mind, teaches you that you are God's | Son. In every hurtful thought you hold, wherever you perceive it, |
| Tx:10.18 | be to fail to understand. You can heal only yourself, for only God's | Son needs healing. He needs it because he does not understand himself |
| Tx:10.19 | He will lay His own complete will and make yours whole. What can the | Son of God not accomplish with the Fatherhood of God in him? And yet |
| Tx:10.23 | could never suffer in any way, for that is not God's Will for His | Son. Pain is not of Him, for He knows no attack and His peace |
| Tx:10.23 | blind, it does not see whom it attacks. Yet it always attacks the | Son of God, and the Son of God is you. |
| Tx:10.23 | see whom it attacks. Yet it always attacks the Son of God, and the | Son of God is you. |
| Tx:10.24 | God's | Son is indeed in need of comfort, for he knows not what he does, |
| Tx:10.26 | with you on the way. But the dark journey is not the way of God's | Son. Walk in light, and do not see the dark companions, for they are |
| Tx:10.26 | not see the dark companions, for they are not fit companions for the | Son of God, who was created of light and in light. The Great Light |
| Tx:10.27 | God hides nothing from His | Son, even though His Son would hide himself. Yet the Son of God |
| Tx:10.27 | God hides nothing from His Son, even though His | Son would hide himself. Yet the Son of God cannot hide his glory, for |
| Tx:10.27 | from His Son, even though His Son would hide himself. Yet the | Son of God cannot hide his glory, for God wills him to be glorious |
| Tx:10.28 | by the dark comforters, and never let them enter the Mind of God's | Son, for they have no place in His temple. When you are tempted to |
| Tx:10.30 | cannot understand Wholeness unless you are whole, and no part of the | Son can be excluded if he would know the Wholeness of his Father. In |
| Tx:10.30 | with Him because it is your will not to be alone. God blessed His | Son forever. If you will bless him in time, you will be in eternity. |
| Tx:10.32 | you try to make God homeless and know that you are at home? Can the | Son deny the Father without believing that the Father has denied him? |
| Tx:10.33 | That is the law of God for the protection of the wholeness of His | Son. |
| Tx:10.35 | as blaming others. You cannot enter God's Presence if you attack His | Son. When His Son lifts his voice in praise of his Creator, he will |
| Tx:10.35 | You cannot enter God's Presence if you attack His Son. When His | Son lifts his voice in praise of his Creator, he will hear the Voice |
| Tx:10.35 | Voice of his Father. Yet the Creator cannot be praised without His | Son, for their glory is shared, and they are glorified together. |
| Tx:10.36 | Christ is at God's altar, waiting to welcome His | Son. But come wholly without condemnation, for otherwise you will |
| Tx:10.36 | God is my life and yours, and nothing is denied by God to His | Son. |
| Tx:10.37 | Christ waits for the restoration of Himself in you. God knows His | Son as wholly blameless as Himself, and He is approached through the |
| Tx:10.37 | as Himself, and He is approached through the appreciation of His | Son. Christ waits for your acceptance of Him as yourself and of His |
| Tx:10.37 | of Him as yourself and of His wholeness as yours. For Christ is the | Son of God who lives in his Creator and shines with His glory. Christ |
| Tx:10.38 | Blessed is the | Son of God, whose radiance is of his Father and whose glory he wills |
| Tx:10.38 | as his Father shares it with him. There is no condemnation in the | Son, for there is no condemnation in the Father. Sharing the perfect |
| Tx:10.38 | in the Father. Sharing the perfect love of the Father, the | Son must share what belongs to Him, for otherwise he will not know |
| Tx:10.38 | belongs to Him, for otherwise he will not know the Father or the | Son. Peace be unto you who rest in God and in whom the whole Sonship |
| Tx:10.52 | by fear, this is what the ego would have you believe. Yet God's | Son is not insane and cannot believe it. Let him but recognize it, |
| Tx:10.56 | straight at the Father and does not see Him, for it has denied His | Son. |
| Tx:10.57 | Would you remember the Father? Accept His | Son, and you will remember Him. Nothing can demonstrate that His Son |
| Tx:10.57 | His Son, and you will remember Him. Nothing can demonstrate that His | Son is unworthy, for nothing can prove that a lie is true. What you |
| Tx:10.57 | for nothing can prove that a lie is true. What you see of His | Son through the eyes of the ego is a demonstration that His Son does |
| Tx:10.57 | of His Son through the eyes of the ego is a demonstration that His | Son does not exist, yet where the Son is, the Father must be. Accept |
| Tx:10.57 | ego is a demonstration that His Son does not exist, yet where the | Son is, the Father must be. Accept what God does not deny, and He |
| Tx:10.57 | He created. Their silence is the sign that they have beheld God's | Son, and in the Presence of Christ they need demonstrate nothing, for |
| Tx:10.61 | what you see by narrow little beliefs which are unworthy of God's | Son. For until Christ comes into His own, the Son of God will see |
| Tx:10.61 | are unworthy of God's Son. For until Christ comes into His own, the | Son of God will see himself as fatherless. |
| Tx:10.62 | is now, and ever shall be, for such is the nature of God's | Son as His Father created him. |
| Tx:10.63 | Do not underestimate the power of the devotion of God's | Son nor the power of the god he worships over him. For he places |
| Tx:10.63 | In his name they crucify themselves, believing that the power of the | Son of God is born of sacrifice and pain. The God of the resurrection |
| Tx:10.64 | God. And you can accept it by His grace, for God is gracious to His | Son, accepting him without question as His own. Who, then, is your |
| Tx:10.65 | find peace until you have removed the nails from the hands of God's | Son and taken the last thorn from his forehead. The love of God |
| Tx:10.65 | the last thorn from his forehead. The love of God surrounds His | Son, whom the god of the crucifixion condemns. Teach not that I died |
| Tx:10.65 | that I live in you. For the undoing of the crucifixion of God's | Son is the work of the redemption, in which everyone has a part of |
| Tx:10.65 | everyone has a part of equal value. God does not judge His blameless | Son. Having given Himself to him, how could it be otherwise? |
| Tx:10.66 | a crown of thorns upon your own head. Yet you cannot crucify God's | Son, for the Will of God cannot die. His Son has been redeemed from |
| Tx:10.66 | you cannot crucify God's Son, for the Will of God cannot die. His | Son has been redeemed from his own crucifixion, and you cannot assign |
| Tx:10.66 | but what you see in dreams is not reality. While you perceive the | Son of God as crucified, you are asleep. And as long as you believe |
| Tx:10.68 | God's | Son is saved. Bring only this awareness to the Sonship, and you will |
| Tx:10.70 | Every loving thought that the | Son of God ever had is eternal. Those which his mind perceived in |
| Tx:10.82 | yourself, for it can only free you. Nothing of God will enslave His | Son, whom He created free and whose freedom is protected by His Being. |
| Tx:10.83 | Sons have nothing which they do not share. Ask for truth of any | Son of God, and you have asked it of me. No one of us but has the |
| Tx:10.83 | in him, to give to anyone who asks it of him. Ask anything of God's | Son and His Father will answer you, for Christ is not deceived in His |
| Tx:10.84 | him unto Christ, for Christ is his healing and yours. Christ is the | Son of God, who is in no way separate from His Father, whose every |
| Tx:10.84 | of His Father by which He was created. Be not deceived in God's | Son, for thereby you must be deceived in yourself. And being deceived |
| Tx:10.86 | as we live together and love together. Be not deceived in God's | Son, for he is one with himself and one with his Father. Love him who |
| Tx:10.87 | offends you, you are offended in yourself and are condemning God's | Son, whom God condemneth not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all offense |
| Tx:10.87 | God condemneth not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all offense of God's | Son against himself and perceive no one but through His guidance, for |
| Tx:10.87 | power and use it for all He sends you, for He wills to heal the | Son of God in whom He is not deceived. |
| Tx:11.15 | to obscure the light, it has none, for it has power only because the | Son of God gave power to it. He must himself withdraw that power, |
| Tx:11.30 | If only the loving thoughts of God's | Son are the world's reality, the real world must be in his mind. His |
| Tx:11.32 | that God so loved the world that He gave it to His only-begotten | Son. God does love the real world, and those who perceive its reality |
| Tx:11.35 | you will learn to see truly. From this place, where God and His | Son dwell in peace and where you are welcome, you will look out in |
| Tx:11.39 | He sets before you He will give you. For He will never deceive God's | Son, whom He loves with the love of the Father. |
| Tx:11.52 | your will to learn aright, and nothing can oppose the Will of God's | Son. His learning is as unlimited as he is. |
| Tx:11.54 | forget your worth. For the Father never ceases to remind Him of His | Son, and He never ceases to remind His Son of the Father. God is in |
| Tx:11.54 | ceases to remind Him of His Son, and He never ceases to remind His | Son of the Father. God is in your memory because of Him. You chose to |
| Tx:11.57 | The Holy Spirit keeps the vision of Christ for every | Son of God who sleeps. In His sight the Son of God is perfect, and He |
| Tx:11.57 | vision of Christ for every Son of God who sleeps. In His sight the | Son of God is perfect, and He longs to share His vision with you. He |
| Tx:11.57 | world because God gave you Heaven. Through Him your Father calls His | Son to remember. The awakening of His Son begins with his investment |
| Tx:11.57 | Him your Father calls His Son to remember. The awakening of His | Son begins with his investment in the real world, and by this he will |
| Tx:11.57 | to reinvest in himself. For reality is one with the Father and the | Son, and the Holy Spirit blesses the real world in Their Name. |
| Tx:11.60 | of knowledge. At the altar of God, the holy perception of God's | Son becomes so enlightened that light streams into it, and the Spirit |
| Tx:11.60 | so enlightened that light streams into it, and the Spirit of God's | Son shines in the Mind of the Father and becomes one with it. Very |
| Tx:11.60 | God shine upon Himself, loving the extension of Himself which is His | Son. The world has no purpose as it blends into the purpose of God. |
| Tx:11.77 | Do you really believe that you can kill the | Son of God? The Father has hidden His Son safely within Himself and |
| Tx:11.77 | believe that you can kill the Son of God? The Father has hidden His | Son safely within Himself and kept him far away from your destructive |
| Tx:11.77 | your destructive thoughts, but you know neither the Father nor the | Son because of them. You attack the real world every day and every |
| Tx:11.78 | God's | Son is as safe as his Father, for the Son knows his Father's |
| Tx:11.78 | God's Son is as safe as his Father, for the | Son knows his Father's protection and cannot fear. His Father's love |
| Tx:11.81 | look upon what you have made of it and rejoice that it is not so. | Son of God, be not content with nothing! What is not real cannot be |
| Tx:11.81 | is not real cannot be seen and has no value. God could not offer His | Son what has no value, nor could His Son receive it. You were |
| Tx:11.81 | value. God could not offer His Son what has no value, nor could His | Son receive it. You were redeemed the instant you thought you had |
| Tx:11.82 | you have tried to interpose between your awareness and truth. God's | Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The Holy Spirit looks |
| Tx:11.84 | back to what was never lost. Your Father could not cease to love His | Son. |
| Tx:11.86 | The acceptance of guilt into the Mind of God's | Son was the beginning of the separation, as the acceptance of the |
| Tx:11.88 | This world is a picture of the crucifixion of God's | Son. And until you realize that God's Son cannot be crucified, this |
| Tx:11.88 | of the crucifixion of God's Son. And until you realize that God's | Son cannot be crucified, this is the world you will see. Yet you will |
| Tx:11.88 | will not realize this until you accept the eternal fact that God's | Son is not guilty. He deserves only love because he has given only |
| Tx:11.89 | Holy Spirit wills only this, for sharing the Father's love for His | Son, He wills to remove all guilt from his mind that he may remember |
| Tx:11.89 | from your sight, for it is the denial of the blamelessness of God's | Son. |
| Tx:11.90 | In this strange world which you have made, the | Son of God has sinned. How could you see him, then? By making him |
| Tx:11.90 | was and can never be. Without guilt the ego has no life, and God's | Son is without guilt. As you look upon yourselves and judge what you |
| Tx:11.91 | the past behind you and will disappear. As long as you believe the | Son of God is guilty, you will walk along this carpet, believing that |
| Tx:11.92 | The journey which the | Son of God has set himself is foolish indeed, but the journey on |
| Tx:11.92 | sets him is one of release and joy. The Father is not cruel, and His | Son cannot hurt himself. The retaliation he fears and which he sees |
| Tx:11.92 | He is with you. He has always undone everything unworthy of the | Son of God, for such was His mission, given Him by God. And what God |
| Tx:11.93 | You will see me as you learn the | Son of God is guiltless. He has always sought his guiltlessness, and |
| Tx:11.93 | it is only a matter of time, and time is but an illusion. For the | Son of God is guiltless now, and the brightness of his purity shines |
| Tx:11.93 | of his purity shines untouched forever in God's Mind. God's | Son will always be as he was created. Deny your world and judge him |
| Tx:11.94 | for yourselves, you will realize that there is no guilt in God's | Son. And only as you look upon him as guiltless can you understand |
| Tx:11.94 | only yourself, and by so doing, you cannot know that you are God's | Son. You have denied the condition of his Being, which is his perfect |
| Tx:11.95 | will realize that there is no journey, but only an awakening. The | Son of God, who sleepeth not, has kept faith with his Father for you. |
| Tx:11.95 | travel on and no time to travel through. For God waits not for His | Son in time, being forever unwilling to be without him. And so it has |
| Tx:11.95 | be without him. And so it has always been. Let the holiness of God's | Son shine away the cloud of guilt that darkens your mind, and by |
| Tx:11.97 | a sense of need for expiation. Accepting the guiltlessness of the | Son of God as yours is therefore God's way of reminding you of His |
| Tx:11.97 | Son of God as yours is therefore God's way of reminding you of His | Son and what he is in truth. For God has never condemned His Son, and |
| Tx:11.97 | of His Son and what he is in truth. For God has never condemned His | Son, and being guiltless, he is eternal. |
| Tx:11.99 | recognition that it has never been. As He looks upon the guiltless | Son of God, he knows this is true. And being true for you, you cannot |
| Tx:11.99 | guilt, attack is impossible. You, then, are saved because God's | Son is guiltless. And being wholly pure, you are invulnerable. |
| Tx:12.2 | you have failed. Yet you have no idea that you are failing the | Son of God by seeing him as guilty. Believing you are no longer you, |
| Tx:12.3 | and secret place is the realization that you have betrayed God's | Son by condemning him to death. You do not even suspect this |
| Tx:12.3 | urge is so intense that nothing short of the crucifixion of God's | Son can ultimately satisfy it. It does not know who the Son of God is |
| Tx:12.3 | of God's Son can ultimately satisfy it. It does not know who the | Son of God is because it is blind. Yet let it perceive guiltlessness |
| Tx:12.5 | of truth, let us recognize that you believe you have crucified God's | Son. You have not admitted to this “terrible” secret because you |
| Tx:12.6 | the ego. When it was confronted with the real guiltlessness of God's | Son, it did attempt to kill him, and the reason it gave was that |
| Tx:12.9 | the remembrance of your Father, for you will remember His guiltless | Son, who did not die because he is immortal. And you will see that |
| Tx:12.9 | on your homecoming, and the joy will be yours. For the redeemed | son of man is the guiltless Son of God, and to recognize him is your |
| Tx:12.9 | the joy will be yours. For the redeemed son of man is the guiltless | Son of God, and to recognize him is your redemption. |
| Tx:12.12 | would be willing to look even upon your savage wish to kill God's | Son if you did not believe that it saves you from love. For this wish |
| Tx:12.16 | you offer it can heal it, for here is the real crucifixion of God's | Son. |
| Tx:12.18 | welcome it, and it will be yours. For grandeur is the right of God's | Son, and no illusions can satisfy him or save him from what he is. |
| Tx:12.20 | to Him, and you could not ask this of a Father Who truly loved His | Son. Therefore you made of Him an unloving father, demanding of Him |
| Tx:12.20 | of Him what only such a father could give. And the peace of God's | Son was shattered, for he no longer understood his Father. He feared |
| Tx:12.21 | except by departing in peace and returning to the Father? If the | Son did not wish to remain in peace, he could not remain at all. For |
| Tx:12.40 | us in gladness, and gladness is what we should offer Him. For every | Son of God is given you to whom God gave Himself. And it is God to |
| Tx:12.43 | His Father. Beyond your darkest dreams, He sees God's guiltless | Son within you, shining in perfect radiance, which is undimmed by |
| Tx:12.44 | alone, for He is no more alone than they are. Because they saw the | Son, they have risen in Him to the Father. And all this will they |
| Tx:12.47 | condemnation upon the present. For the cloud which obscures God's | Son to you is the past, and if you would have it past and gone, you |
| Tx:12.52 | continuity, unbroken because it is wholly shared. God's guiltless | Son is only light. There is no darkness in him anywhere, for he is |
| Tx:12.52 | to the Creator of light. The holy light that shines forth from God's | Son is the witness that his light is of his Father. |
| Tx:12.53 | in His clear answer to your call. For it can never be that His | Son called upon Him and remained unanswered. His call to you is but |
| Tx:12.55 | it. And here will everything remind you of your Father and His Holy | Son. Light is unlimited and spreads across this world in quiet joy. |
| Tx:12.57 | name He has given for you and given you the gifts He gave. God's | Son is still as loving as his Father. Continuous with his Father, he |
| Tx:12.65 | It is God's Will that nothing touch His | Son except Himself, and nothing else comes nigh unto him. He is as |
| Tx:12.66 | past. Yet here it is, and you can understand it now. God loves His | Son forever, and His Son returns his Father's love forever. The real |
| Tx:12.66 | and you can understand it now. God loves His Son forever, and His | Son returns his Father's love forever. The real world is the way that |
| Tx:12.66 | But this one thing is always yours, being the gift of God unto His | Son. Your one reality was given you, and by it God created you as one |
| Tx:12.67 | Praise, then, the Father for the perfect sanity of His most holy | Son. |
| Tx:12.71 | for His sight is ever on the journey's end which is His goal. God's | Son is not a traveler through outer worlds. However holy his |
| Tx:12.76 | The sound of it will banish sorrow from the Mind of God's most holy | Son, where it cannot abide. Healing in time is needed, for joy cannot |
| Tx:12.76 | part of you that you have taught how to remember you. Thus does the | Son of God give thanks unto his Father for his purity. |
| Tx:13.4 | Apart from the Father and the | Son, the Holy Spirit has no function. He is not separate from either, |
| Tx:13.5 | of creation; that it is one forever. Every miracle you offer to the | Son of God is but the true perception of one aspect of the whole. |
| Tx:13.6 | Reality of God. The only miracle that ever was is God's most holy | Son, created in the One Reality that is his Father. Christ's vision |
| Tx:13.7 | Christ's gift to everyone and everywhere, for miracles offered the | Son of God through the Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy |
| Tx:13.8 | of His teaching, and as we grow in strength, the power of God's | Son will move in us, and we will leave no one untouched and no one |
| Tx:13.10 | for reality is witnessed to as one. God waits your witness to His | Son and to Himself. The miracles you do on earth are lifted up to |
| Tx:13.10 | Heaven, God will open them. For never would He leave His own beloved | Son outside them and beyond Himself. |
| Tx:13.11 | only thing that hides the Father, for guilt is the attack upon His | Son. The guilty always condemn, and having done so, they will |
| Tx:13.14 | has become as true for you as innocence. You do not believe the | Son of God is guiltless because you see the past and see him not. |
| Tx:13.15 | him that he is right in his delusion? The idea that the guiltless | Son of God can attack himself and make himself guilty is insane. In |
| Tx:13.16 | unto yourself. In every condemnation that you offer the | Son of God lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you would have |
| Tx:13.16 | true for you. Remember always that it is impossible to condemn the | Son of God in part. Those whom you see as guilty become the witnesses |
| Tx:13.27 | heal and teach, to make what will be now. As yet it is not now. The | Son of God believes that he is lost in guilt, alone in a dark world |
| Tx:13.29 | as steadily and as surely as God Himself has always loved His | Son. And as His son loves Him. There is no fear in love, for love is |
| Tx:13.29 | and as surely as God Himself has always loved His Son. And as His | son loves Him. There is no fear in love, for love is guiltless. You |
| Tx:13.29 | He would show you the perfect purity that is forever within God's | Son. |
| Tx:13.31 | Behold the | Son of God and look upon his purity and be still. In quiet look upon |
| Tx:13.32 | guilt forever. I thank You, Father, for the purity of Your most holy | Son, whom You have created guiltless forever. |
| Tx:13.34 | Praise be unto you who make the Father one with His own | Son. Alone we are all lowly, but together we shine with brightness so |
| Tx:13.36 | God would not have His | Son embattled, and so His Son's imagined “enemy,” which he made, is |
| Tx:13.39 | mission to remove all doubt and every trace of guilt that His dear | Son has laid upon himself. It is impossible that this mission fail. |
| Tx:13.43 | even the darkest nightmare that disturbed the Mind of God's sleeping | Son holds no power over him. He will learn the lesson of awaking. God |
| Tx:13.44 | Can God's | Son lose himself in dreams when God has placed within him the glad |
| Tx:13.51 | you made would be forever dark. The thoughts which the Mind of God's | Son projects have all the power that he gives to them. The thoughts |
| Tx:13.63 | simple truth. For there is nothing else. God is everywhere, and His | Son is in Him with everything. Can he sing the dirge of sorrow when |
| Tx:13.66 | gently, but with the conviction born of the love of God and of His | Son, |
| Tx:13.67 | by making it manifest and sharing it. Let me bring peace to God's | Son from his Father. |
| Tx:13.70 | No penalty is ever asked of God's | Son except by himself and of himself. Every chance given him to heal |
| Tx:13.70 | of light. The joy of learning that darkness has no power over the | Son of God is the happy lesson the Holy Spirit teaches and would have |
| Tx:13.71 | is also his. There is nothing to forgive. No one can hurt the | Son of God. His guilt is wholly without cause, and being without |
| Tx:13.72 | the Cause of God as yours. The power that God has given to His | Son is his, and nothing else can His Son see or choose to look upon |
| Tx:13.72 | power that God has given to His Son is his, and nothing else can His | Son see or choose to look upon without imposing on himself the |
| Tx:13.73 | decisions by yourself or for yourself alone. No thought of God's | Son can be separate or isolated in its effects. Every decision is |
| Tx:13.76 | of yourself in place of His calm and unswerving value of His | Son? Nothing can shake God's conviction of the perfect purity of |
| Tx:13.77 | “enemy,” and against this strange distortion of the purity of the | Son of God, the Holy Spirit is your only friend. He is the strong |
| Tx:13.79 | Seek not to appraise the worth of God's | Son, whom He created holy, for to do so is to evaluate his Father and |
| Tx:13.79 | you. For it is quite impossible that He could ever let His | Son drop from His loving mind wherein he was created and where his |
| Tx:13.86 | is offered first to be received, even as God gave it first to His | Son. The first in time means nothing, but the First in eternity is |
| Tx:13.90 | Fail not yourself, but instead offer to God and you His blameless | Son. For this small gift of appreciation for His Love, God will |
| Tx:13.91 | the awful burden you have laid upon yourself by loving not the | Son of God and trying to teach him guilt instead of love. Give up |
| Tx:14.1 | Him, though He is all around you. He cannot be known without His | Son, whose guiltlessness is the condition for knowing Him. Accepting |
| Tx:14.1 | whose guiltlessness is the condition for knowing Him. Accepting His | Son as guilty is denial of the Father so complete that knowledge is |
| Tx:14.3 | Heaven to itself. Atonement teaches you the true condition of the | Son of God. It does not teach you what you are or what your Father |
| Tx:14.5 | of you to you. There is no guilt in you, for God is blessed in His | Son as the Son is blessed in Him. |
| Tx:14.5 | you. There is no guilt in you, for God is blessed in His Son as the | Son is blessed in Him. |
| Tx:14.6 | but the message given to each to share is always the same—God's | Son is guiltless. Each one teaches the message differently and learns |
| Tx:14.7 | Blessed | Son of a wholly blessing Father, joy was created for you. Who can |
| Tx:14.8 | The inheritance of the Kingdom is the right of God's | Son, given him in his creation. Do not try to steal it from him, or |
| Tx:14.8 | hidden, but shine away the heavy veils of guilt within which the | Son of God has hidden himself from his own sight. We are all joined |
| Tx:14.8 | away and full communication be restored between the Father and the | Son. |
| Tx:14.12 | excluded. Within its holy circle is everyone whom God created as His | Son. Joy is its unifying attribute, with no one left outside to |
| Tx:14.13 | the only purpose to which my teaching calls you. Restore to God His | Son as He created him by teaching him his innocence. |
| Tx:14.23 | chambers in God's temple. Its gates are open wide to greet His | Son. No one can fail to come where God has called him if he close not |
| Tx:14.32 | the glory God gave you and the power He bestowed upon His guiltless | Son. All this lies hidden in every darkened place shrouded in guilt |
| Tx:14.33 | promise given unto Him to lay upon the altar to your Father and His | Son. No altar stands to God without His Son. And nothing brought |
| Tx:14.33 | altar to your Father and His Son. No altar stands to God without His | Son. And nothing brought there that is not equally worthy of both but |
| Tx:14.33 | but will be replaced by gifts wholly acceptable to Father and to | Son. Can you offer guilt to God? You cannot, then, offer it to His |
| Tx:14.33 | Son. Can you offer guilt to God? You cannot, then, offer it to His | Son. For they are not apart, and gifts to one are offered to the |
| Tx:14.34 | not in division, but in the meeting place where God, united with His | Son, speaks to His Son through Him. Communication between what cannot |
| Tx:14.34 | in the meeting place where God, united with His Son, speaks to His | Son through Him. Communication between what cannot be divided cannot |
| Tx:14.34 | cease. The holy meeting place of the unseparated Father and His | Son lies in the Holy Spirit and in you. All interference in the |
| Tx:14.34 | interference in the communication that God Himself wills with His | Son is quite impossible here. Unbroken and uninterrupted love flows |
| Tx:14.34 | and uninterrupted love flows constantly between the Father and the | Son, as both would have it be. And so it is. |
| Tx:14.35 | appointed for you. He will surely lead you to where God and His | Son await your recognition. They are joined in giving you the gift of |
| Tx:14.36 | are joined the Father and His creations, and the creations of His | Son with them together. There is one link which joins them all |
| Tx:14.37 | God, and only what is worthy of the Father will be accepted by the | Son, for whom it was intended. To whom God gives Himself, He is |
| Tx:14.47 | its reflection here, its truth becomes the only perception the | Son of God accepts. And thus, remembrance of his Father dawns on him, |
| Tx:14.57 | you will recognize it. And God Himself, Who wills to be with His | Son forever, will bless each recognition of His Son with all the love |
| Tx:14.57 | wills to be with His Son forever, will bless each recognition of His | Son with all the love He holds for him. Nor will the power of all His |
| Tx:14.57 | power of all His love be absent from any miracle you offer to His | Son. How, then, can there be any order of difficulty among them? |
| Tx:14.59 | to it forever. For you have taught yourselves how to imprison the | Son of God, a lesson so unthinkable that only the insane, in deepest |
| Tx:14.59 | could even dream of it. Can God learn how not to be God? And can His | Son, given all power by Him, learn to be powerless? What have you |
| Tx:14.61 | glory, for in it lies His power, which He shares so gladly with His | Son. |
| Tx:14.63 | peace means but one thing: you think you do not will for God's | Son what His Father wills for him. Every dark lesson teaches this in |
| Tx:14.63 | accept and hide, teaches you that you will with the Father unto His | Son. |
| Tx:14.67 | which you can depend for miracles has been provided for you. God's | Son can make no needs His Father will not meet if he but turn to Him |
| Tx:14.67 | meet if he but turn to Him ever so little. Yet He cannot compel His | Son to turn to Him and remain Himself. It is impossible that God lose |
| Tx:14.67 | The miracle acknowledges His changelessness by seeing His | Son as he always was and not as he would make himself. The miracle |
| Tx:14.71 | God's | Son will always be indivisible. As we are held as one in God, so do |
| Tx:14.71 | as one in Him. God's Teacher is as like to His Creator as is His | Son, and through His Teacher does God proclaim His Oneness and His |
| Tx:15.9 | the future. Each instant is a clean, untarnished birth, in which the | Son of God emerges from the past into the present. And the present |
| Tx:15.15 | in time but in eternity. There never was an instant in which God's | Son could lose his purity. His changeless state is beyond time, for |
| Tx:15.17 | Blessed is God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to teach God's holy | Son his holiness. His joy is not contained in time. His teaching is |
| Tx:15.19 | you. And you will know which you have chosen by their reactions. A | Son of God who has been released through the Holy Spirit in a |
| Tx:15.26 | of God will support every effort you make on behalf of His dear | Son. Search for the little, and you deny yourself His power. God is |
| Tx:15.26 | little, and you deny yourself His power. God is not willing that His | Son be content with less than everything. For He is not content |
| Tx:15.26 | content with less than everything. For He is not content without His | Son, and His Son cannot be content with less than his Father has |
| Tx:15.26 | less than everything. For He is not content without His Son, and His | Son cannot be content with less than his Father has given him. We |
| Tx:15.27 | not left Him. All your attempts to deny His magnitude and make His | Son hostage to the ego cannot make little whom God has joined with |
| Tx:15.33 | release all those who would be bound, proclaiming together that the | Son of God is host to Him. Thus will we let no one forget what you |
| Tx:15.46 | yourself as alone is to deny the oneness of the Father and his | Son and thus to attack reality. |
| Tx:15.57 | gift to you. In the holy instant, we share our faith in God's | Son because we recognize together that he is wholly worthy of it, and |
| Tx:15.61 | The laws of this world cease to hold any meaning at all. When the | Son of God accepts the laws of God as what he gladly wills, it is |
| Tx:15.62 | holy instant, you will recognize the only need the aspects of the | Son of God share equally, and by this recognition you will join with |
| Tx:15.65 | obscured by it is the powerful attraction of the Father for His | Son. There is no other love that can satisfy you, because there is no |
| Tx:15.69 | It is this chain that binds the | Son of God to guilt, and it is this chain the Holy Spirit would |
| Tx:15.80 | all that there is by desiring that it be all that there is. God's | Son has such great need of your willingness to strive for this that |
| Tx:15.80 | conceive of need so great. Behold the only need that God and His | Son share and will to meet together. You are not alone in this. The |
| Tx:15.81 | leave you and what you can never leave. The loneliness of God's | Son is the loneliness of his Father. Refuse not the awareness of your |
| Tx:15.90 | and limited, for you have attempted to separate the Father from the | Son and limit their communication. Seek not Atonement in further |
| Tx:15.90 | Atonement in further separation. And limit not your vision of God's | Son to what interferes with his release and what the Holy Spirit must |
| Tx:15.92 | your power in time to delay the perfect union of the Father and the | Son. For in this world, the attraction of guilt does stand between |
| Tx:15.93 | of Christ. For in this liberating instant, no guilt is laid upon the | Son of God, and his unlimited power is thus restored to him. What |
| Tx:16.38 | and perfect holiness. Only there is the completion of God and of His | Son established forever. Seek not for this in the bleak world of |
| Tx:16.38 | to accept completion, and only this, there is God completed and His | Son with Him. |
| Tx:16.59 | cannot be natural, for it is unlike the relationship of God and His | Son, and all relationships that are unlike this one must be |
| Tx:16.77 | that you receive it not, because He gave it. When He willed that His | Son be free, His Son was free. In the holy instant is His reminder |
| Tx:16.77 | it not, because He gave it. When He willed that His Son be free, His | Son was free. In the holy instant is His reminder that His Son will |
| Tx:16.77 | free, His Son was free. In the holy instant is His reminder that His | Son will always be exactly as he was created. And everything the Holy |
| Tx:16.81 | Love. Let us not wander into temptation, for the temptation of the | Son of God is not Your will. And let us receive only what you have |
| Tx:17.1 | The betrayal of the | Son of God lies only in illusions, and all his “sins” are but his own |
| Tx:17.7 | of the happiness this sight will bring you. For you will see the | Son of God. You will behold the beauty which the Holy Spirit loves to |
| Tx:17.9 | of your forgiveness on it. And with this final blessing of God's | Son upon himself, the real perception, born of the new perspective he |
| Tx:17.11 | lack of reason is suddenly released to loveliness. Not even what the | Son of God made in insanity could be without a hidden spark of beauty |
| Tx:17.12 | of grass a sign of God's perfection. From the forgiven world, the | Son of God is lifted easily into his home. And there he knows that he |
| Tx:17.14 | make immortal are “enemies” of reality. Be willing to forgive the | Son of God for what he did not do. The shadow figures are the |
| Tx:17.22 | spark before you to light your way and make it clear to you. God's | Son is one. Whom God has joined as one, the ego cannot break apart. |
| Tx:17.78 | Such was the crucifixion of the | Son of God. His faithlessness did this to him. Think carefully before |
| Tx:18.29 | your relationship, you have joined with me in bringing Heaven to the | Son of God, who hid in darkness. You have been willing to bring the |
| Tx:18.49 | from Himself. The Kingdom of Heaven is the dwelling-place of the | Son of God, who left not his Father and dwells not apart from Him. |
| Tx:18.52 | does not condemn it and can use it lovingly, respecting what the | Son of God has made and using it to save him from illusions. |
| Tx:18.54 | that has no meaning, proclaiming it to be the dwelling-place of the | Son of God and turning it against him. |
| Tx:18.55 | host of God that you have made. And neither God nor His most holy | Son can enter an abode which harbors hate and where you have sown the |
| Tx:18.57 | from you]. It is not there. There is no barrier between God and His | Son, nor can His Son be separated from himself except in illusions. |
| Tx:18.57 | not there. There is no barrier between God and His Son, nor can His | Son be separated from himself except in illusions. This is not his |
| Tx:18.57 | had to create differently and to have separated Himself from His | Son to make this possible. He would have had to create different |
| Tx:18.81 | straight into Heaven. No part of love calls on the whole in vain. No | Son of God remains outside His Fatherhood. |
| Tx:18.84 | thought needs help because in its delusions it thinks it is the | Son of God, whole and omnipotent, sole ruler of the kingdom it set |
| Tx:18.85 | by hate. Within its barricades is still a tiny segment of the | Son of God, complete and holy, serene and unaware of what you think |
| Tx:18.93 | evil thought you had laid upon it. Here there is no attack upon the | Son of God, and you are welcome. Here is your innocence, waiting to |
| Tx:19.2 | Every situation properly perceived becomes an opportunity to heal the | Son of God. And he is healed because you offered faith to him, giving |
| Tx:19.5 | unite and heal.] Faithlessness would interpose illusions between the | Son of God and his Creator; faith would remove all obstacles that |
| Tx:19.11 | of union. It is the gracious acknowledgment of everyone as a | Son of your most loving Father, loved by Him like you and therefore |
| Tx:19.12 | through Him Whom God has given you. Faithlessness looks upon the | Son of God and judges him unworthy of forgiveness. But through the |
| Tx:19.12 | him unworthy of forgiveness. But through the eyes of faith, the | Son of God is seen already forgiven, free of all the guilt he laid |
| Tx:19.12 | is the sign you share it with Him. Faith is a gift you offer to the | Son of God through Him, and wholly acceptable to his Father as to |
| Tx:19.16 | think you do to the eternal you do to you. Whom God created as His | Son is slave to nothing, being lord of all along with his Creator. |
| Tx:19.18 | that attack is real and guilt is justified. It assumes the | Son of God is guilty and has thus succeeded in losing his innocence |
| Tx:19.19 | The | Son of God can be mistaken; he can deceive himself; he can even turn |
| Tx:19.20 | holiness. And it is this doctrine which replaces the reality of the | Son of God as his Father created him and willed that he be forever. |
| Tx:19.23 | than the idea that sin is real—the natural expression of what the | Son of God has made himself to be and what he is. To the ego, this is |
| Tx:19.28 | and thus unanswered? In time the Holy Spirit clearly sees the | Son of God can make mistakes. On this you share His vision. Yet you |
| Tx:19.33 | will which could attack His Will and overcome it and give His | Son a will apart from His and stronger. And each part of God's |
| Tx:19.39 | and lay them gently before His Creator in the name of His most holy | Son. And the Father will accept them in His Name. What need is there |
| Tx:19.40 | you. If you would make it homeless, how can it abide within the | Son of God? If it would spread across the whole creation, it must |
| Tx:19.56 | through murder. Salvation is looked upon as a way by which the | Son of God was killed instead of you. |
| Tx:19.63 | of clay, to be your home. In your holy relationship is your Father's | Son. He has not lost communion with Him nor with himself. When you |
| Tx:19.65 | other as you would look on me. Forgive me all the sins you think the | Son of God committed. And in the light of your forgiveness, he will |
| Tx:19.66 | there together in the quiet communion in which the Father and the | Son are joined. Oh come ye faithful to the holy union of the Father |
| Tx:19.66 | are joined. Oh come ye faithful to the holy union of the Father and | Son in you! And keep you not apart from what is offered you in |
| Tx:19.68 | be extended if you would have its limitless power and use it for the | Son of God's release. It is not this you would be rid of, and having |
| Tx:19.76 | medium, receiving from the Father and offering His messages unto the | Son. Like the ego, the Holy Spirit is both the sender and the |
| Tx:19.81 | who looks upon it as himself. You who believe you have condemned the | Son of God to this are arrogant. But you who would release him are |
| Tx:19.85 | Under the dusty edge of its distorted world, the ego would lay the | Son of God, slain by its orders, proof in his decay that God Himself |
| Tx:19.90 | surmount a final obstacle after which is salvation completed and the | Son of God entirely restored to sanity. For here your world does end. |
| Tx:19.107 | So will we prepare together the way unto the resurrection of God's | Son and let him rise again to glad remembrance of his Father, Who |
| Tx:19.108 | the gift you owe each other, the debt of gratitude you offer to the | Son of God in thanks for what he is and what his Father created him |
| Tx:19.110 | so strong that it would lift you far beyond the veil and place the | Son of God safely within the sure protection of his Father. Here is |
| Tx:20.1 | Let us not spend this holy week brooding on the crucifixion of God's | Son, but happily in the celebration of his release. For Easter is the |
| Tx:20.1 | Christ has no meaning. But a risen Christ becomes the symbol of the | Son of God's forgiveness of himself; the sign he looks upon himself |
| Tx:20.2 | begins with palms and ends with lilies, the white and holy sign the | Son of God is innocent. Let no dark sign of crucifixion intervene |
| Tx:20.2 | we celebrate life, not death. And we honor the perfect purity of the | Son of God and not his sins. Offer each other the gift of lilies, not |
| Tx:20.3 | short, and yet this holy week is the symbol of the whole journey the | Son of God has undertaken. He started with the sign of victory the |
| Tx:20.7 | and on yourself. Here is your gift to both; your judgment on the | Son of God for what he is. Forget not that it is your savior to whom |
| Tx:20.8 | I have great need for lilies, for the | Son of God has not forgiven me. And can I offer him forgiveness when |
| Tx:20.8 | his friend for me that I may be forgiven and you may look upon the | Son of God as whole. But look you first upon the altar in your chosen |
| Tx:20.11 | give. For what God gave the Holy Spirit, you have received. The | Son of God looks unto you for his release. For you have asked for and |
| Tx:20.11 | upon this final obstacle and see no thorns nor nails to crucify the | Son of God and crown him king of death. Your chosen home is on the |
| Tx:20.12 | There is no fear in love. The song of Easter is the glad refrain the | Son of God was never crucified. Let us lift up our eyes together, not |
| Tx:20.14 | to the peace of Easter, in which we join in glad awareness that the | Son of God is risen from the past and has awakened to the present. |
| Tx:20.22 | that made it as you see it is not outside you. Seek not to make the | Son of God adjust to his insanity. There is a stranger in him who |
| Tx:20.23 | all the seeing universe of truth you ask, “How shall I look upon the | Son of God?” |
| Tx:20.24 | How happy did it make you? Did you meet with joy to bless the | Son of God and give him thanks for all the happiness which he held |
| Tx:20.27 | The innocent see safety, and the pure in heart see God within His | Son and look unto the Son to lead them to the Father. And where else |
| Tx:20.27 | and the pure in heart see God within His Son and look unto the | Son to lead them to the Father. And where else would they go but |
| Tx:20.27 | now will lead the other to the Father as surely as God created His | Son holy and kept him so. In your brother is the light of God's |
| Tx:20.33 | a new world rises in which sin can enter not, and where the | Son of God can enter without fear, and where he rests a while to |
| Tx:20.36 | contingency. It rests on you. And what can be more certain than a | Son of God? |
| Tx:20.37 | In this world, God's | Son comes closest to himself in a holy relationship. There he begins |
| Tx:20.37 | anything be lost, and never lost forever. So do the parts of God's | Son gradually join in time, and with each joining is the end of time |
| Tx:20.38 | your holy relationship, which has the power to hold the unity of the | Son of God together. You give to one another for everyone, and in |
| Tx:20.44 | you in love and perfect confidence in what He sees. He knows the | Son of God and shares his Father's certainty the universe rests in |
| Tx:20.45 | The meaning of the | Son of God lies solely in his relationship with his Creator. If it |
| Tx:20.45 | is nothing else. And this is wholly loving and forever. Yet has the | Son of God invented an unholy relationship between him and his |
| Tx:20.54 | The holy relationship reflects the true relationship the | Son of God has with his Father in reality. The Holy Spirit rests |
| Tx:20.55 | bereft of water and set uncertainly upon oblivion. Here does the | Son of God stop briefly by to offer his devotion to death's idols, |
| Tx:20.69 | is his desire to see his sinlessness, as it is yours. And bless the | Son of God in your relationship, nor see in him what you have made of |
| Tx:20.70 | do you think the body is a better home, a safer shelter for God's | Son? Why would you rather look on it than on the truth? How can the |
| Tx:20.77 | an instant just on this—you can behold the holiness God gave His | Son. And never need you think that there is something else for you to |
| Tx:21.2 | world. See it as damned, and all you see is what you did to hurt the | Son of God. If you behold disaster and catastrophe, you tried to |
| Tx:21.11 | This is the vision of the | Son of God, whom you know well. Here is the sight of him who knows |
| Tx:21.11 | will ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn [of love] the | Son of God sings to his Father still. |
| Tx:21.12 | the memory of this song. And they will look upon the vision of the | Son of God, remembering who he is they sing of. What is a miracle but |
| Tx:21.17 | It is impossible the | Son of God be merely driven by events outside of him. It is |
| Tx:21.20 | is, is an idea that it is possible that things should happen to the | Son of God without his will and thus without the Will of his Creator, |
| Tx:21.21 | This is the | Son of God's replacement for his will, a mad revolt against what must |
| Tx:21.25 | of your desire to create your own Creator and be father and not | son to Him. This is the same desire. The Son is the effect, whose |
| Tx:21.25 | and be father and not son to Him. This is the same desire. The | Son is the effect, whose Cause he would deny. And so he seems to be |
| Tx:21.26 | you made has power to make you what it wills, you are confusing | Son and Father, effect and Source. |
| Tx:21.27 | The Son's creations are like his Father's. Yet in creating them, the | Son does not delude himself that he is independent of his Source. His |
| Tx:21.31 | is indeed a little feat for such a power. For faith can keep the | Son of God in chains as long as he believes he is in chains. And when |
| Tx:21.33 | It is impossible that the | Son of God lack faith, but he can choose where he would have it be. |
| Tx:21.33 | Faith given to illusions does not lack power, for by it does the | Son of God believe that he is powerless. Thus is he faithless to |
| Tx:21.53 | your will and your consent. It must have been accepted by the | Son of God, for what God wills for him he must receive. For God wills |
| Tx:21.61 | No one can think but for himself, as God thinks not without His | Son. Only were both in bodies could this be. Nor could one mind think |
| Tx:21.64 | If you choose sin instead of healing, you would condemn the | Son of God to what can never be corrected. You tell him by your |
| Tx:21.65 | reassure you and seeks not to frighten you. The power to heal the | Son of God is given you because he must be one with you. You are |
| Tx:21.68 | The | Son of God is always blessed as one. And as his gratitude goes out to |
| Tx:21.69 | The power that you have over the | Son of God is not a threat to his reality. It but attests to it. |
| Tx:21.69 | but himself if he deny his freedom? God is not mocked; no more His | Son can be imprisoned save by his own desire. And it is by his own |
| Tx:21.70 | that they are little could see attraction there. Treachery to the | Son of God is the defense of those who do not identify with him. And |
| Tx:21.71 | No one believes the | Son of God is powerless. And those who see themselves as helpless |
| Tx:21.71 | who see themselves as helpless must believe that they are not the | Son of God. What can they be except his enemy? And what can they do |
| Tx:21.71 | and afraid, alone and not communicating, fearful the power of the | Son of God will strike them dead and raising up their helplessness |
| Tx:21.84 | can be given only those who wish for constancy. The power of the | Son of God's desire remains the proof that he is wrong who sees |
| Tx:22.4 | becomes apparent. Here is the golden circle where you recognize the | Son of God. For what is born into a holy relationship can never end. |
| Tx:22.13 | Be certain God did not entrust His | Son to the unworthy. Nothing but what is part of Him is worthy of |
| Tx:22.24 | we have seen many times before. Only if it were possible the | Son of God could leave his Father's Mind, make himself different, and |
| Tx:22.25 | and with a will opposed to His. For only if you would believe His | Son could be His enemy does it seem possible that what you made is |
| Tx:22.61 | Who can attack the | Son of God and not attack his Father? How can God's Son be weak and |
| Tx:22.61 | can attack the Son of God and not attack his Father? How can God's | Son be weak and frail and easily destroyed unless his Father is? You |
| Tx:22.61 | see that this is your attempt because you think the Father and the | Son are separate. And you must think that they are separate because |
| Tx:22.62 | be possible to attack a part of the creation without the whole, the | Son without the Father, and to attack another without yourself or |
| Tx:22.64 | relationship is a reflection of the union of the Creator and His | Son. From loving minds there is no separation. And every thought in |
| Tx:23.5 | Let us not let littleness lead God's | Son into temptation. His glory is beyond it, measureless and timeless |
| Tx:23.10 | all unknown. He loves you perfectly, completely, and eternally. The | Son of God at war with his Creator is a condition as ridiculous as |
| Tx:23.11 | is kept apart. The war against yourself was undertaken to teach the | Son of God that he is not himself and not his Father's Son. For this, |
| Tx:23.11 | to teach the Son of God that he is not himself and not his Father's | Son. For this, the memory of his Father must be forgotten. It is |
| Tx:23.16 | away all trace of the belief in sin that keeps God homeless and His | Son with Him. You are not strangers in the house of God. Welcome your |
| Tx:23.22 | powerless to overcome. Sin cannot be remitted, being the belief the | Son of God can make mistakes for which his own destruction becomes |
| Tx:23.23 | what this seems to do to the relationship between the Father and the | Son. Now it appears that they can never be one again. For one must |
| Tx:23.23 | is one of opposition, just as the separate aspects of the | Son meet only to conflict but not to join. One becomes weak, the |
| Tx:23.23 | God and of each other now appears as sensible, made real by what the | Son of God has done both to himself and his Creator. The arrogance on |
| Tx:23.24 | about the truth of what has been established for His belief. His | Son can tell Him this, and He has but the choice whether to take his |
| Tx:23.25 | it and to Whom appeal is useless. Nor can salvation lie within the | Son, whose every aspect seems to be at war with Him and justified in |
| Tx:23.26 | outcome. And God Himself seems to be siding with it to overcome His | Son. Think not the ego will enable you to find escape from what it |
| Tx:23.33 | appear! Give thanks unto the hero on love's throne, who saved the | Son of God for fear and death! |
| Tx:23.48 | from one another. So will they be to those who see God's | Son a body. For it is not the body that is like the Son's Creator. |
| Tx:23.48 | that is like the Son's Creator. And what is lifeless cannot be the | Son of Life. How can a body be extended to hold the universe? Can it |
| Tx:23.49 | His function with a body. He gave the function to create unto His | Son because it is His own. It is not sinful to believe the function |
| Tx:23.49 | it is His own. It is not sinful to believe the function of the | Son is murder, but it is insanity. What is the same can have no |
| Tx:23.49 | and what is His must be His Son's as well. Either the Father and the | Son are murderers or neither is. Life makes not death, creating like |
| Tx:23.50 | the love of God. It cannot yet assume the holy function God gave His | Son, for your forgiveness of one another is not complete as yet, and |
| Tx:23.52 | you, and no illusion can attack the peace of God together with His | Son. |
| Tx:23.53 | The body stands between the Father and the Heaven He created for His | Son because it has no purpose. |
| Tx:24.1 | God does not wait upon illusions to let Him be Himself. No more His | Son. They are. And what illusion that idly seems to drift between |
| Tx:24.5 | reality of God's creation and with the grandeur which He gave His | Son. What else could justify attack? For who could hate someone whose |
| Tx:24.14 | the “creator” who creates unlike the Father and which made His | Son like to itself and not like unto Him. His “special” sons are |
| Tx:24.17 | The shining radiance of the | Son of God—so like his Father that the memory of Him springs |
| Tx:24.17 | memory of Him springs instantly to mind. And with this memory, the | Son remembers his own creations, as like to him as he is to his |
| Tx:24.19 | that he may return it unto you. It is not God Who has condemned His | Son. But only you, to save his specialness and kill his Self. |
| Tx:24.21 | would not keep one part of what He is unto Himself, not given to His | Son but kept for Him alone. And it is this you fear, for if He is not |
| Tx:24.21 | it is this you fear, for if He is not special, then He willed His | Son be like Him, and your brother is like you. Not special, but |
| Tx:24.24 | seem possible God made the body as the prison-house which keeps His | Son from Him. For it demands a special place God cannot enter and a |
| Tx:24.29 | Without foundation nothing is secure. Would God have left His | Son in such a state, where safety has no meaning? No, His Son is |
| Tx:24.29 | left His Son in such a state, where safety has no meaning? No, His | Son is safe, resting on Him. It is your specialness that is attacked |
| Tx:24.31 | of life, of love and holiness, the perfect Father of a perfect | Son, for your illusions of your specialness. Here is the hell you |
| Tx:24.33 | of specialness will yet be free. Such is the Will of God and of His | Son. Would God condemn Himself to hell and to damnation? And do you |
| Tx:24.33 | that he holds out for your forgiveness. God asks your mercy on His | Son and on Himself. Deny them not. They ask of you but that your will |
| Tx:24.47 | in your completion is His Own. He Who willed not to be without His | Son could never will that you be brotherless. And would He give a |
| Tx:24.50 | Without you there would be a lack in God, a Heaven incomplete, a | Son without a Father. There could be no universe and no reality. For |
| Tx:24.51 | began and as He knows you still. God changes not His Mind about His | Son with passing circumstance, which has no meaning in eternity where |
| Tx:24.52 | Forget not that the healing of God's | Son is all the world is for. That is the only purpose the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:24.52 | in it and thus the only one it has. Until you see the healing of the | Son as all you wish to be accomplished by the world, by time, and all |
| Tx:24.52 | in all temptation to perceive what is not there and all belief God's | Son can suffer pain because he sees himself as he is not. |
| Tx:24.57 | condemnation along with you. And both shall see God's glory in His | Son, whom you mistook as flesh and bound to laws that have no power |
| Tx:24.62 | the hint of threat, or anything but deepest reverence. This is your | son, beloved of you as you are to your Father. Yet it stands in place |
| Tx:24.62 | to your Father. Yet it stands in place of your creations, who are | son to you, that you might share the Fatherhood of God, not snatch it |
| Tx:24.62 | share the Fatherhood of God, not snatch it from Him. What is this | son that you have made to be your strength? What is this child of |
| Tx:24.62 | And where are they, now that the host of God has found another | son which he prefers to them? |
| Tx:24.68 | A co-creator with the Father must have a | Son. Yet must this Son have been created like Himself. A perfect |
| Tx:24.68 | A co-creator with the Father must have a Son. Yet must this | Son have been created like Himself. A perfect being, all-encompassing |
| Tx:24.71 | it evil. Yet your specialness whispers, “Here is my own beloved | son, in whom I am well pleased.” Thus does the “son” become the means |
| Tx:24.72 | and no encounter. One do you see outside yourself, your own beloved | son. The other rests within, His Father's Son, within your brother as |
| Tx:24.72 | yourself, your own beloved son. The other rests within, His Father's | Son, within your brother as he is in you. Their difference does not |
| Tx:24.72 | and separates each from all aspects with a different purpose. The | Son of God retains His Father's Will. The son of man perceives an |
| Tx:24.72 | a different purpose. The Son of God retains His Father's Will. The | son of man perceives an alien will and wishes it were so. And thus |
| Tx:25.2 | Him manifest. And thus they do not recognize Him where He is. The | son of man is not the risen Christ. Yet does the Son of God abide |
| Tx:25.2 | where He is. The son of man is not the risen Christ. Yet does the | Son of God abide exactly where he is and walks with him within his |
| Tx:25.7 | with a life apart from His. His Life is manifest in you who are His | Son. Each aspect of Himself is framed in holiness and perfect purity, |
| Tx:25.8 | the truth may reach to you through what you understand. Father and | Son and Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in |
| Tx:25.9 | lies. Because His purpose still is one with both the Father and the | Son, He knows the Will of God and what you really will. But this is |
| Tx:25.20 | masterpiece? What could He do but offer thanks to you who love His | Son as He does? Would He not make known to you His love if you but |
| Tx:25.20 | gift to you. And He is glad and thankful when you thank His perfect | Son for being what he is. And all His thanks and gladness shine on |
| Tx:25.21 | never sinned. Give then what He has given you that you may see His | Son as one and thank his Father as He thanks you. Nor believe that |
| Tx:25.21 | you. And give the Holy Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the | Son alike. Nothing has power over you except His Will and yours, who |
| Tx:25.24 | the world where this reflection is, is real at all. Only because His | Son believes it is, and from His Son's belief He could not let |
| Tx:25.26 | universe as God created it, but in some form adapted to the need the | Son of God believes he has. Corrected error is the error's end. And |
| Tx:25.26 | error is the error's end. And thus has God protected still His | Son, even in error. There is another purpose in the world that error |
| Tx:25.31 | The | Son of God could never sin, but he can wish for what would hurt him. |
| Tx:25.33 | of rejoicing and of joy. Even in Heaven does this law obtain. The | Son of God creates to bring him joy, sharing his Father's purpose in |
| Tx:25.36 | for you. What aim can supersede the Will of God and of His | Son that Heaven be restored to him for whom it was created as his |
| Tx:25.37 | desire to attack is gone, and so there is no reason to perceive the | Son of God as other than he is. The need for guilt is gone because it |
| Tx:25.38 | to deserve the wish and leave him innocent? And who would see the | Son of God as innocent and wish him dead? Christ stands before you |
| Tx:25.40 | The | Son of God asks only this of you—that you return to him what is his |
| Tx:25.42 | Against the hatred that the | Son of God may cherish toward himself is God believed to be without |
| Tx:25.49 | you. All that you made can serve salvation easily and well. The | Son of God can make no choice the Holy Spirit cannot employ on his |
| Tx:25.49 | light, you see it as your special function in the plan to save the | Son of God from all attack and let him understand that he is safe, as |
| Tx:25.53 | is to deny your Father's sanity and yours. For God and His beloved | Son do not think differently. And it is the agreement of their |
| Tx:25.53 | differently. And it is the agreement of their thought that makes the | Son a co-creator with the mind Whose Thought created him. And if he |
| Tx:25.53 | one thought opposed to truth, he has decided he is not his Father's | Son because the Son is mad, and sanity must lie apart from both the |
| Tx:25.53 | to truth, he has decided he is not his Father's Son because the | Son is mad, and sanity must lie apart from both the Father and the |
| Tx:25.53 | Son is mad, and sanity must lie apart from both the Father and the | Son. This you believe. Think not that this belief depends upon the |
| Tx:25.53 | believes this to be true. Sin is not real because the Father and the | Son are not insane. This world is meaningless because it rests on |
| Tx:25.54 | And one in which nothing is contradicted that would lead the | Son of God to sanity and joy. Nothing attests to death and cruelty, |
| Tx:25.55 | of what you are. And each reflects a view of what the Father and the | Son must be to make that viewpoint meaningful and sane. |
| Tx:25.56 | free of place and time and all that you believe must limit you. The | Son of God cannot be bound by time nor place nor anything God did not |
| Tx:25.58 | function in the hope of peace than could the Father overlook His | Son and pass him by in careless thoughtlessness. |
| Tx:25.62 | you share it. Not for you alone but for the Self which is the | Son of God. He cannot lose, for if he could, the loss would be his |
| Tx:25.72 | is richer made by each one you accept. And God rejoices as His | Son receives what loving justice knows to be his due. For love and |
| Tx:25.72 | they are the same does mercy stand at God's right hand and give the | Son of God the power to forgive himself of sin. |
| Tx:25.73 | recognize it not. God knows of no injustice. He would not allow His | Son be judged by those who seek his death and could not see his worth |
| Tx:25.73 | him by you. Yet God ensured that justice would be done unto the | Son He loves and would protect from all unfairness you might seek to |
| Tx:25.75 | the power of love and justice if you understand it is impossible the | Son of God could merit vengeance. You need not perceive in every |
| Tx:25.75 | And so the Holy Spirit's special function has been fulfilled. God's | Son has found a witness unto his sinlessness and not his sin. How |
| Tx:25.77 | joyous and complete in every way, as God appointed for His holy | Son. This is the only justice Heaven knows, and all the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:25.77 | For only love is just and can perceive what justice must accord the | Son of God. Let love decide and never fear that you in your |
| Tx:25.79 | [for you] in Heaven, where all of the treasures given to God's | Son are kept for him and offered anyone who but holds out his hand in |
| Tx:25.80 | one at least is seen unfairly. Thus is justice not accorded to the | Son of God. When anyone is seen as losing, he has been condemned. And |
| Tx:25.84 | Salvation cannot seek to help God's | Son be more unfair than he has sought to be. If miracles, the Holy |
| Tx:26.4 | and you. What greater sacrifice could be demanded than that God's | Son perceive himself without his Father? And his Father be without |
| Tx:26.4 | perceive himself without his Father? And his Father be without His | Son? Yet every sacrifice demands that they be separate and without |
| Tx:26.4 | sacrifice is asked of anyone. What witness to the wholeness of God's | Son is seen within a world of separate bodies, however much he |
| Tx:26.7 | your eyes and ears bear witness to the death of God and of His holy | Son, think not that you have power to make of them what God willed |
| Tx:26.7 | power to make of them what God willed not they be. In Heaven God's | Son is not imprisoned in a body nor is sacrificed in solitude to sin. |
| Tx:26.8 | sacrifice and loss. God's justice rests in gentleness upon His | Son and keeps him safe from all injustices the world would lay upon |
| Tx:26.9 | What is the Holy Spirit's special function but to release the holy | Son of God from the imprisonment he made to keep himself from |
| Tx:26.13 | all errors. Every problem is an error. It does injustice to the | Son of God and therefore is not true. The Holy Spirit does not |
| Tx:26.13 | They have no properties to Him. They are mistakes from which the | Son of God is suffering, but needlessly. And so He takes the thorns |
| Tx:26.13 | be large or little. He makes but one judgment—that to hurt God's | Son must be unfair and therefore is not so. |
| Tx:26.14 | justice is total. There is no such thing as partial justice. If the | Son of God is guilty, then is he condemned, and he deserves no mercy |
| Tx:26.18 | one? He knows of one creation, one reality, one truth, and but one | Son. Nothing conflicts with oneness. How, then, could there be |
| Tx:26.21 | Nothing the | Son of God believes can be destroyed. But what is truth to him must |
| Tx:26.28 | brings no little miracles to lay before the gate of Heaven. Here the | Son of God Himself comes to receive each gift that brings him nearer |
| Tx:26.34 | What disappeared too quickly to affect the simple knowledge of the | Son of God can hardly still be there for you to choose to be your |
| Tx:26.39 | Would God allow His | Son to lose his way along a road long since a memory of time gone by? |
| Tx:26.39 | have the power to keep you in a place of death, a vault God's | Son entered an instant, to be instantly restored unto His Father's |
| Tx:26.40 | The | Son that God created is as free as God created him. He was reborn the |
| Tx:26.45 | illusion as your only friend. This is no friendship worthy of God's | Son, nor one with which he could remain content. Yet God has given |
| Tx:26.48 | in truth but in the world of shadows and illusions built on sin. The | Son of God perceives what he would see, because perception is a wish |
| Tx:26.53 | serves to bring the joy this world denies to every aspect of God's | Son where sin was thought to rule. Perhaps you do not see the role |
| Tx:26.56 | There is no sin. And every miracle is possible the instant that the | Son of God perceives his wishes and the Will of God are one. |
| Tx:26.57 | What is the Will of God? He wills His | Son have everything. And this He guaranteed when He created him as |
| Tx:26.58 | Here does the | Son of God ask not too much but far too little. He would sacrifice |
| Tx:26.60 | success. For never will success be possible in trying to deceive the | Son of God. |
| Tx:26.61 | merely shift effects to other forms. And this is not release. God's | Son could never be content with less than full salvation and escape |
| Tx:26.61 | idea of sacrifice. If loss in any form is possible, then is God's | Son made incomplete and not himself. [Nor will he know himself nor |
| Tx:26.63 | brother calls for his release and yours. Heaven is shining on the | Son of God. Deny him not, that you may be released. Each instant is |
| Tx:26.63 | of God. Deny him not, that you may be released. Each instant is the | Son of God reborn, until he chooses not to die again. In every wish |
| Tx:26.64 | in the name of love. To you to whom it has been given to save the | Son of God from crucifixion and from hell and death, all glory be |
| Tx:26.64 | hell and death, all glory be forever. For you have power to save the | Son of God because his Father willed that it be so. And in your hands |
| Tx:26.67 | it not. And by this little gift of truth but let to be itself—the | Son of God allowed to be himself and all creation freed to call upon |
| Tx:26.83 | winter and the freezing cold. And shall the Lord of Heaven and His | Son give less in gratitude for so much more? |
| Tx:26.84 | as host again to Him by Whom it was created. Where He dwells, His | Son dwells with Him, never separate. And They give thanks that They |
| Tx:26.84 | that came to kill. In gentle gratitude do God the Father and the | Son return to what is Theirs and will forever be. Now is the Holy |
| Tx:26.87 | Yet it is you who ask this of yourself in deep injustice to the | Son of God. You have no enemy except yourself, and you are enemy |
| Tx:26.88 | attempts to get? Is it not retribution for your own attack upon the | Son of God you seek? Is it not safer to believe that you are innocent |
| Tx:26.91 | By this do I deny the Presence of the Father and the | Son. And I would rather know of Them than see injustice which Their |
| Tx:27.1 | of God's creation and the Father with the sacrifice of his beloved | Son. |
| Tx:27.3 | need of anything, you but accuse your brother of attack upon God's | Son. You hold a picture of your crucifixion before his eyes that he |
| Tx:27.18 | cry of death and guilt. The ancient calling of the Father to His | Son, and of the Son unto his own, will yet be the last trumpet that |
| Tx:27.18 | and guilt. The ancient calling of the Father to His Son, and of the | Son unto his own, will yet be the last trumpet that the world will |
| Tx:27.20 | sight and his. And laughter will replace your sighs because God's | Son remembered that he is God's Son. |
| Tx:27.20 | replace your sighs because God's Son remembered that he is God's | Son. |
| Tx:27.53 | you for your healing, for He knows it is a gift of love unto His | Son, and therefore is it given unto Him. |
| Tx:27.73 | will. Nothing more fearful than an idle dream has terrified God's | Son and made him think that he has lost his innocence, denied his |
| Tx:27.75 | from this dream, the Lord of Heaven will Himself awaken His beloved | Son. Dream of your brother's kindnesses instead of dwelling in your |
| Tx:27.82 | eternity, where all is one, there crept a tiny mad idea at which the | Son of God remembered not to laugh. In his forgetting did the thought |
| Tx:27.85 | Perhaps you come in tears, but hear Him say, “My brother, Holy | Son of God, behold your idle dream in which this could occur,” and |
| Tx:28.8 | it was not your Father's Will that He be unremembered by His [only] | Son. |
| Tx:28.10 | Creator cannot understand it is not He Who laid a judgment on His | Son. You would deny Him His effects, yet have they never been denied. |
| Tx:28.10 | yet have they never been denied. There was no time in which His | Son could be condemned for what was causeless and against His Will. |
| Tx:28.12 | that instant is His memory allowed to offer all its treasures to the | Son of God, for whom they have been kept. How gladly does He offer |
| Tx:28.12 | would not be deprived of His effects. The instant's silence that His | Son accepts gives welcome to eternity and Him and lets Them enter |
| Tx:28.12 | lets Them enter where They would abide. For in that instant does the | Son of God do nothing that would make himself afraid. |
| Tx:28.13 | and undone. The stillness speaks in gentle sounds of love the | Son of God remembers from before his own remembering came in between |
| Tx:28.14 | Now is the | Son of God at last aware of present Cause and Its benign effects. Now |
| Tx:28.15 | it with Himself. His memory has not gone by and left a stranded | Son forever on a shore where he can glimpse another shore which he |
| Tx:28.15 | over. He has built the bridge, and it is He Who will transport His | Son across it. Have no fear that He will fail in what He wills. Nor |
| Tx:28.16 | cause a cause is made by its effects; the Father is a father by His | Son. Effects do not create their cause, but they establish its |
| Tx:28.16 | not create their cause, but they establish its causation. Thus, the | Son gives fatherhood to his Creator and receives the gift that he has |
| Tx:28.16 | receives the gift that he has given Him. It is because he is God's | Son that he must also be a father who creates as God created him. The |
| Tx:28.18 | Always in sickness does the | Son of God attempt to make himself his cause and not allow himself to |
| Tx:28.18 | to make himself his cause and not allow himself to be his Father's | Son. For this impossible desire, he does not believe that he is |
| Tx:28.34 | And what are you who live within the world except a picture of the | Son of God in broken pieces, each concealed within a separate and |
| Tx:28.36 | deprived or can deprive. Here is a feast the Father lays before His | Son and shares it equally with him. And in Their sharing there can be |
| Tx:28.43 | left the space between them vacant. And the Father comes to join His | Son the Holy Spirit joined. |
| Tx:28.44 | The Holy Spirit's function is to take the broken picture of the | Son of God and put the pieces into place again. This holy picture, |
| Tx:28.44 | seeds of sickness and of sin. And here the Father will receive His | Son, because His Son was gracious to himself. |
| Tx:28.44 | and of sin. And here the Father will receive His Son, because His | Son was gracious to himself. |
| Tx:28.45 | each little gap that lies between the broken pieces of Your holy | Son. Your holiness, complete and perfect, lies in every one of them. |
| Tx:28.45 | it is recognized as being part of the completed picture of God's | Son! The forms the broken pieces seem to take mean nothing. For the |
| Tx:28.45 | mean nothing. For the whole is in each one. And every aspect of the | Son of God is just the same as every other part. |
| Tx:28.46 | not your brother's dreams but join with him, and where you join His | Son, the Father is. Who seeks for substitutes when he perceives he |
| Tx:28.46 | Your willingness to let illusions go is all the Healer of God's | Son requires. He will place the miracle of healing where the seeds of |
| Tx:28.59 | has made to God, as God has made to him. God keeps His promises; His | Son keeps his. In his creation did his Father say, “You are beloved |
| Tx:28.59 | Be you perfect as Myself, for you can never be apart from Me.” His | Son remembers not that he replied “I will,” though in that promise he |
| Tx:28.60 | God asks for nothing, and His | Son, like Him, need ask for nothing. For there is no lack in him. An |
| Tx:28.60 | has not. A space where God is not, a gap between the Father and the | Son is not the will of either, who have promised to be one. God's |
| Tx:28.63 | for what it did not do. It serves to help the healing of God's | Son, and for this purpose it cannot be sick. It will not join a |
| Tx:28.66 | alone. It is an ark of safety, resting on God's promise that His | Son is safe forever in Himself. What gap can interpose itself between |
| Tx:28.66 | in worth than the extent to which it can be used to liberate God's | Son unto his home. And with this holy purpose is it made a home of |
| Tx:29.15 | Such is the promise of the living God—His | Son have life and every living thing be part of him, and nothing else |
| Tx:29.21 | is perfect and complete? Deny Him not His witness in the dream His | Son prefers to his reality. He must be savior from the dream he made, |
| Tx:29.23 | God's Witness has set forth the gentle way of kindness to God's | Son. Whom you forgive is given power to forgive you your illusions. |
| Tx:29.24 | How holy are you, that the | Son of God can be your savior in the midst of dreams of desolation |
| Tx:29.31 | except a hymn to Heaven rises up to gladden God the Father and the | Son. Where both abide are They remembered both. And where They are is |
| Tx:29.32 | in the might of its Creator; nothing can intrude upon the sacred | Son of God within. Here is the role the Holy Spirit gives to you who |
| Tx:29.32 | Here is the role the Holy Spirit gives to you who wait upon the | Son of God and would behold him waken and be glad. He is a part of |
| Tx:29.32 | glad. He is a part of you, and you of him because he is his Father's | Son and not for any purpose you may see in him. Nothing is asked of |
| Tx:29.33 | This sacred | Son of God is like yourself—the mirror of his Father's love for |
| Tx:29.34 | in all creation but the shining glory of His gift to you. Behold His | Son, His perfect gift in whom his Father shines forever and to whom |
| Tx:29.35 | not give in minds that can direct the hand to bless and lead God's | Son unto his Father's house. Would you not want to be a friend to |
| Tx:29.39 | Swear not to die, you holy | Son of God! You make a bargain that you cannot keep. The Son of Life |
| Tx:29.39 | you holy Son of God! You make a bargain that you cannot keep. The | Son of Life cannot be killed. He is immortal as his Father. What he |
| Tx:29.39 | return. Where time has set an end is not where the eternal is. God's | Son can never change by what men made of him. He will be as he was |
| Tx:29.41 | seeming sway is now restored the function God established for His | Son in full awareness. Time can set no end to its fulfillment nor its |
| Tx:29.42 | kill your body only if you think that it was made to crucify God's | Son. For even though it was a dream of death, you need not let it |
| Tx:29.42 | for. How lovely is the world whose purpose is forgiveness of God's | Son! How free from fear, how filled with blessing and with happiness! |
| Tx:29.45 | form appears to be outside himself. Yet does he seek to kill God's | Son within and prove that he is victor over him. This is the purpose |
| Tx:29.57 | God, forever given to all living things, give way to chaos, and the | Son of God, as perfect, sinless and as loving as his Father, come to |
| Tx:29.60 | One. Who can have more, and who be given less? In Heaven would the | Son of God but laugh if idols could intrude upon his peace. It is for |
| Tx:29.61 | life and seek for power in the powerless. What happened to the holy | Son of God that this could be his wish—to let himself fall lower |
| Tx:29.61 | that dream was Heaven changed to hell, and God made enemy unto His | Son. |
| Tx:29.62 | How can God's | Son awaken from the dream? It is a dream of judgment. So must he |
| Tx:29.63 | the dream from which they come. Judgment is an injustice to God's | Son, and it is justice that who judges him will not escape the |
| Tx:29.68 | which never left the altar which abides forever deep within the | Son of God. And when he hears this song again, he knows he never |
| Tx:30.34 | Unless you do your will, you are not free. And would God leave His | Son without what he has chosen for himself? God but ensured that you |
| Tx:30.34 | be reminded of His love and learn your will. God would not have His | Son made prisoner to what he does not want. He joins with you in |
| Tx:30.39 | form can take the place of all the love in the divinity of God the | Son? What idol can make two of what is one? And can the limitless be |
| Tx:30.41 | no separate person and no separate thing the power to complete the | Son of God. What idol can be called upon to give the Son of God what |
| Tx:30.41 | to complete the Son of God. What idol can be called upon to give the | Son of God what he already has? |
| Tx:30.42 | Completion is the function of God's | Son. He has no need to seek for it at all. Beyond all idols stands |
| Tx:30.48 | sky, no changeless star, and no reality. The mind of Heaven's | Son in Heaven is, for there the mind of Father and Son joined in |
| Tx:30.48 | mind of Heaven's Son in Heaven is, for there the mind of Father and | Son joined in creation which can have no end. You have not two |
| Tx:30.48 | The star shines still; the sky has never changed. But you, the holy | Son of God Himself, are unaware of your reality. |
| Tx:30.53 | they are not there. Yet this is equally forgotten in attack. God's | Son needs no defense against his dreams. His idols do not threaten |
| Tx:30.54 | —you do not want whatever you believe an idol gives. For thus the | Son of God declares that he is free of idols. And thus is he free. |
| Tx:30.56 | and then its unreality is plain. Dreams are for nothing. And the | Son of God can have no need of them. They offer him no single thing |
| Tx:30.60 | final step is God's because it is but God Who could create a perfect | Son and share His Fatherhood with him. No one outside of Heaven knows |
| Tx:30.60 | because its purpose is forgiveness, not idolatry. And so is Heaven's | Son prepared to be himself, and to remember that the Son of God knows |
| Tx:30.60 | so is Heaven's Son prepared to be himself, and to remember that the | Son of God knows everything his Father understands and understands it |
| Tx:30.62 | are, forgiveness washes joyfully away. Yet God need not create His | Son again that what is his be given back to him. The gap between your |
| Tx:30.62 | gap between your brother and yourself was never there. And what the | Son of God knew in creation, he must know again. |
| Tx:30.63 | the Father is remembered. For He must be unremembered till His | Son has reached beyond forgiveness to the love of God. Yet is the |
| Tx:30.76 | not escape all guilt, but only some of it. You must forgive God's | Son entirely. Or you will keep an image of yourself that is not whole |
| Tx:30.76 | cannot be appearances which have replaced the truth about God's | Son. |
| Tx:30.78 | God's | Son is perfect, or he cannot be God's Son. Nor will you know him if |
| Tx:30.78 | God's Son is perfect, or he cannot be God's | Son. Nor will you know him if you think he does not merit the escape |
| Tx:30.79 | I thank you, Father, for your perfect | Son, and in his glory will I see my own. |
| Tx:30.81 | no effects. But what you see as having power to make an idol of the | Son of God you will not pardon. For he has become to you a graven |
| Tx:30.81 | a sign of death. Is this your savior? Is his Father wrong about His | Son? Or have you been deceived in him who has been given you to heal, |
| Tx:30.92 | miracles has not been given freedom to bestow His gifts upon God's | Son. When he is tempted, he denies reality. And he becomes the |
| Tx:31.4 | one strange lesson, powerful enough to render God forgotten and His | Son an alien to himself, in exile from the home where God Himself |
| Tx:31.4 | God Himself established him. You who have taught yourselves the | Son of God is guilty, say not that you cannot learn the simple things |
| Tx:31.6 | senseless noise of sounds which have no meaning? God willed not His | Son forget Him. And the power of His Will is in the Voice that speaks |
| Tx:31.7 | surely from its source. The certain outcome of the lesson that God's | Son is guilty is the world you see. It is a world of terror and |
| Tx:31.7 | reflects the love of God is stronger still. And you will learn God's | Son is innocent and see another world. |
| Tx:31.8 | The outcome of the lesson that God's | Son is guiltless is a world in which there is no fear and everything |
| Tx:31.9 | with all the certainty with which He knows His love. But only if His | Son is innocent can He be Love. For God were fear indeed if he whom |
| Tx:31.9 | he whom He created innocent could be a slave to guilt. God's perfect | Son remembers his creation. But in guilt he has forgotten what he |
| Tx:31.10 | The fear of God results as surely from the lesson that His | Son is guilty as God's love must be remembered when he learns his |
| Tx:31.21 | thoughts. Forget the dismal lessons that you learned about this | Son of God who calls to you. Christ calls to all with equal |
| Tx:31.21 | answer from the one He gave when God appointed Him His only | Son. |
| Tx:31.42 | escape from what you are. For God is merciful and did not let His | Son abandon Him. For what He is, be thankful, for in that is your |
| Tx:31.44 | at all. It is an idol, made to take the place of your reality as | Son of God. The concept of the self the world would teach is not the |
| Tx:31.66 | You who believe that you can choose to see the | Son of God as you would have him be, forget not that no concept of |
| Tx:31.77 | the unremembered and the not yet born. For God has given you His | Son to save from every concept that he ever held. |
| Tx:31.78 | while you wish to stay in hell, how could you be the savior of the | Son of God? How would you know his holiness while you see him apart |
| Tx:31.82 | them forgiveness with his own. Can you to whom God says, “Release My | Son!” be tempted not to listen when you learn that it is you for whom |
| Tx:31.83 | in all its forms wherever it occurs. It would persuade the holy | Son of God he is a body, born in what must die, unable to escape its |
| Tx:31.87 | is yours because He is the Self that God created as His only | Son. |
| Tx:31.90 | I am as God created me. His | Son can suffer nothing. And I am His Son. |
| Tx:31.90 | I am as God created me. His Son can suffer nothing. And I am His | Son. |
| Tx:31.92 | disappear as mists before the sun. A miracle has come to heal God's | Son and close the door upon his dreams of weakness, opening the way |
| W1:20.3 | purpose? And can the world be saved if you are not? God has one | Son, and he is the resurrection and the life. His Will is done |
| W1:37.1 | And he is entitled to everything because it is his birthright as a | Son of God. |
| W1:38.1 | is totally unlimited in its power because it establishes you as a | Son of God, at one with the Mind of his Creator. Through your |
| W1:39.4 | it? God does not know unholiness. Can it be He does not know His | Son? |
| W1:40.3 | then add several of the attributes which you associate with being a | Son of God, applying them to yourself. One practice period might, for |
| W1:40.4 | I am blessed as a | Son of God. I am happy, peaceful, loving, and contented. |
| W1:40.6 | I am blessed as a | Son of God. I am calm, quiet, assured, and confident. |
| W1:40.7 | is available, merely telling yourself that you are blessed as a | Son of God will do. |
| W1:43.2 | of what never was, perception has a mighty purpose. Made by the | Son of God for an unholy purpose, it must become the means for the |
| W1:43.2 | close to God's. Healed perception becomes the means by which the | Son of God forgives his brother and thus forgives himself. |
| W1:45.11 | an altar dedicated in Heaven itself to God the Father and God the | Son. For such is the place you are trying to reach. You will probably |
| W1:46.11 | I cannot be guilty because I am a | Son of God. I have already been forgiven. No fear is possible in a |
| W1:49.2 | you lovingly, reminding you that your Creator has not forgotten His | Son. |
| W1:50.2 | disturb, and where nothing can intrude upon the eternal calm of the | Son of God. |
| W1:50.4 | no idle and foolish thoughts enter to disturb the holy mind of the | Son of God. Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Such is the resting place |
| W1:54.5 | nothing. Everything I think or say or do touches all the universe. A | Son of God cannot think or speak or act in vain. He cannot be alone |
| W1:55.2 | disaster, and death. This cannot be what God created for His beloved | Son. The very fact that I see such things is proof that I do not |
| W1:55.2 | that I do not understand God. Therefore I also do not understand His | Son. What I see tells me that I do not know who I am. I am determined |
| W1:55.3 | is anything but a reflection of the Love of God and the love of His | Son. It is my own attack thoughts which give rise to this picture. My |
| W1:57.3 | I have deluded myself into believing it is possible to imprison the | Son of God. I was bitterly mistaken in this belief, which I no longer |
| W1:57.3 | I was bitterly mistaken in this belief, which I no longer want. The | Son of God must be forever free. He is as God created him, and not |
| W1:57.4 | are the opposite of truth. I see the world as a prison for God's | Son. It must be, then, that the world is really a place where he can |
| W1:57.4 | would look upon the world as it is, and see it as a place where the | Son of God finds his freedom. |
| W1:58.6 | [40] I am blessed as a | Son of God. Herein lies my claim to all good and only good. I am |
| W1:58.6 | Herein lies my claim to all good and only good. I am blessed as a | Son of God. All good things are mine because God intended them for |
| W1:58.6 | me is infinite and is with me forever. I am eternally blessed as His | Son. |
| W1:60.5 | is the only voice and the only guide that has been given to His | Son. |
| W1:60.6 | the world for me to see. As I forgive, His love reminds me that His | Son is sinless. And as I look upon the world with the vision He has |
| W1:60.6 | the world with the vision He has given me, I remember that I am His | Son. |
| W1:61.1 | Who is the light of the world except God's | Son? This, then, is merely a statement of the truth about yourself. |
| W1:61.10 | light of the world. God has built His plan for the salvation of His | Son on you. |
| W1:62.3 | and pain. It will restore the invulnerability and power God gave His | Son to your awareness. |
| W1:63.2 | You are indeed the light of the world with such a function. The | Son of God looks to you for his redemption. It is yours to give him, |
| W1:63.2 | desire in its place or you will forget your function and leave the | Son of God in hell. This is no idle request that is being asked of |
| W1:63.6 | Remember that God's | Son looks to you for his salvation. And who but your Self must be His |
| W1:63.6 | looks to you for his salvation. And who but your Self must be His | Son? |
| W1:64.1 | for forgetting it. It is the temptation to abandon God and His | Son, taking on a physical appearance. It is this which the body's |
| W1:64.4 | salvation awaits your forgiveness, because through it does the | Son of God escape from all illusions and thus from all temptation. |
| W1:64.4 | of God escape from all illusions and thus from all temptation. The | Son of God is you. Only by fulfilling the function given you by God |
| W1:67.1 | This is why God appointed you as the world's savior. This is why the | Son of God looks to you for his salvation. He is saved by what you |
| W1:67.8 | the ego tells you about yourself with the simple truth about the | Son of God. You were created by Love like Itself. |
| W1:69.2 | We are trying to let the veil be lifted and see the tears of God's | Son disappear in the sunlight. |
| W1:72.4 | with him and judging them as one. Herein is God attacked, for if His | Son is only a body, so must He be as well. A creator wholly unlike |
| W1:73.3 | each exchange. Can such a world have been created by the will the | Son of God shares with his Father? Did God create disaster for His |
| W1:73.3 | Son of God shares with his Father? Did God create disaster for His | Son? Creation is the will of Both together. Would God create a world |
| W1:73.11 | You will succeed today, the time appointed for the release of the | Son of God from hell and from all idle wishes. His will is now |
| W1:74.6 | My will is God's My will and God's are one. God wills peace for His | Son. |
| W1:76.11 | About the endless joy He offers you. About His yearning for His only | Son, created as His channel for creation, denied to Him by his belief |
| W1:76.14 | It is our acknowledgment that God is our Father and that His | Son is saved. |
| W1:78.2 | but lay it down and gently lift our eyes in silence to behold the | Son of God. |
| W1:78.3 | every grievance is a block to sight, and as it lifts, you see the | Son of God where he has always been. He stands in light, but you were |
| W1:78.4 | Today we will attempt to see God's | Son. We will not let ourselves be blind to him; we will not look upon |
| W1:78.6 | crossed your mind already. He will be the one of whom we ask God's | Son be shown to us. Through seeing him behind the grievances that we |
| W1:78.8 | Then let us ask of Him Who knows this | Son of God in his reality and truth that we may look on him a |
| W1:78.8 | given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God and of His | Son, as holy as Himself: |
| W1:78.10 | The Holy Spirit leans from him to you, seeing no separation in God's | Son. And what you see through Him will free you both. |
| W1:87.7 | in accordance with the Will of God. It is God's Will you are His | Son, [name], and mine as well. This is part of God's Will for me, |
| W1:92.9 | to find and rest in, for the peace of God is where your Self, His | Son, is waiting now to meet itself again and be as one. |
| W1:93.5 | The self you made is not the | Son of God. Therefore, this self does not exist at all. And anything |
| W1:93.5 | It is unreal and nothing more than that. It does not battle with the | Son of God. It does not hurt him nor attack his peace. It has not |
| W1:94.2 | You are as God created you. Darkness cannot obscure the glory of the | Son of God. You stand in light, strong in the sinlessness in which |
| W1:94.4 | I am as God created me. I am His | Son eternally. |
| W1:94.5 | Now try to reach the | Son of God in you. This is the Self that never sinned nor made an |
| W1:94.8 | I am as God created me. I am His | Son eternally. |
| W1:94.10 | You are as God created you. You are His | Son eternally. |
| W1:95.2 | oneness in you, for it is blind. It does not understand you are the | Son of God, for it is senseless and understands nothing. |
| W1:95.16 | Self, united and secure in light and joy and peace. You are God's | Son, One Self with one Creator and one goal—to bring awareness of |
| W1:95.17 | all there is and all that there will be. You are One Self, the holy | Son of God, united with your brothers in this Self, united with your |
| W1:95.18 | away all your illusions and your doubts. This is your Self, the | Son of God Himself, sinless as its Creator, with His strength within |
| W1:96.7 | it can. Yet would you have God's plan for the release of His dear | Son bring pain to him and fail to set him free? |
| W1:97.2 | We state again the truth about your Self, the holy | Son of God who rests in you whose mind has been restored to sanity. |
| W1:97.9 | Spirit am I, a holy | Son of God, free of all limits, safe and healed and whole, free to |
| W1:99.11 | Will your mind be one with His. It is God's Will that He has but one | Son. It is God's Will that His one Son is you. |
| W1:99.11 | is God's Will that He has but one Son. It is God's Will that His one | Son is you. |
| W1:99.20 | may find Its rightful place in you and show you that you are the | Son of God. |
| W1:100.1 | Just as God's | Son completes his Father, so your part in it completes your Father's |
| W1:100.6 | asks that you be happy so the world can see how much He loves His | Son and wills no sorrow rises to abate his joy; no fear besets him to |
| W1:101.1 | must think it so while you believe that sin is real and that God's | Son can sin. If sin is real, then punishment is just and cannot be |
| W1:101.4 | your bitter enemy, the curse of God upon you who have crucified His | Son. |
| W1:101.5 | cherishes no lingering belief that you have made a devil of God's | Son. |
| W1:102.7 | here is happiness. You have no need to be less loving to God's | Son than He Whose Love created him as loving as Himself. Besides |
| W1:105.6 | You will understand that what completes Him must complete His | Son as well. He cannot give through loss. No more can you. Receive |
| W1:106.4 | dream instead and last forever, for they come from God to His dear | Son, whose other name is you. |
| W1:106.5 | you. He needs your voice to speak to them, for who could reach God's | Son except his Father calling through your Self? |
| W1:109.2 | will come to linger for a while. Here is the thought in which the | Son of God is born again, to recognize himself. |
| W1:110.7 | I am as God created me. His | Son can suffer nothing. And I am His Son. |
| W1:110.7 | I am as God created me. His Son can suffer nothing. And I am His | Son. |
| W1:110.8 | in your mind, try to discover in your mind the Self Who is the holy | Son of God Himself. Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the Son |
| W1:110.8 | Son of God Himself. Seek Him within you Who is Christ in you, the | Son of God and brother to the world—the savior who has been forever |
| W1:110.9 | you. Today honor your Self. Let graven images you made to be the | Son of God instead of what He is be worshiped not today. Deep in your |
| W1:110.11 | we remember Him. And we will say, that we may be reminded of His | Son, our holy Self, the Christ in each of us: |
| W1:R3.12 | you in the business of the day and make it holy, worthy of God's | Son, acceptable to God and to your Self. |
| W1:114.2 | [97] I am Spirit. I am the | Son of God. No body can contain my spirit nor impose on me a |
| W1:116.3 | Will for happiness for me. I share my Father's Will for me, His | Son. What He has given me is all I want. What He has given me is all |
| W1:118.3 | the mighty Voice of truth itself assure me that I am God's perfect | Son. |
| W1:119.2 | I am mistaken when I think I can be hurt in any way. I am God's | Son whose Self rests safely in the Mind of God. |
| W1:120.3 | [110] I am as God created me. I am God's | Son. Today I lay aside all sick illusions of myself and let my Father |
| W1:121.14 | I am mortal, fallible, and full of sin and know I am the perfect | Son of God. |
| W1:122.3 | look with unforgiving eyes upon the world. It lets you recognize the | Son of God and clears your memory of all dead thoughts so that |
| W1:122.6 | you will receive. There is no plan but this for the salvation of the | Son of God. Let us today rejoice that this is so, for here we have an |
| W1:123.3 | without change. Give thanks as well that you are changeless, for the | Son He loves is changeless as Himself. Be grateful you are saved. Be |
| W1:123.3 | gifts and petty judgments of the one whom God established as His | Son. |
| W1:123.8 | to think of Him and give Him thanks for everything He gave His | Son that he might rise above the world remembering his Father and his |
| W1:125.2 | you. No other means can save it, for God's plan is simply this: the | Son of God is free to save himself, given the Word of God to be his |
| W1:125.3 | stand apart from all the judgments which the world has laid upon the | Son of God. It knows him not. Today we will not listen to the world, |
| W1:125.4 | Hear, holy | Son of God, your Father speak. His Voice would give to you His holy |
| W1:125.5 | cherish the illusions which you hold about yourself. He knows His | Son and wills that he remain as part of Him regardless of his dreams, |
| W1:125.8 | with no separation nor division in the single Mind of Father and of | Son. In quiet listen to your Self today, and let Him tell you God has |
| W1:125.8 | to your Self today, and let Him tell you God has never left His | Son, and you have never left your Self. |
| W1:125.9 | and listen. You will hear the Word in which the Will of God the | Son joins in His Father's Will, at one with It, with no illusions |
| W1:126.7 | with empty gestures and evaluate such petty gifts as worthy of His | Son? Salvation is a better gift than this, and true forgiveness, as |
| W1:127.1 | a person or a circumstance. It is the Heart of God, and also of His | Son. |
| W1:127.2 | have to judge between the righteous and the sinner and perceive the | Son of God in separate parts. |
| W1:127.3 | power holding everything as one, the link between the Father and the | Son which holds them both forever as the same. |
| W1:129.4 | remains unlimited for all eternity. And God Himself speaks to His | Son as His Son speaks to Him. Their language has no words, for what |
| W1:129.4 | unlimited for all eternity. And God Himself speaks to His Son as His | Son speaks to Him. Their language has no words, for what they say |
| W1:131.5 | No one can fail to want this goal and reach it in the end. God's | Son cannot seek vainly, though he try to force delay, deceive |
| W1:131.7 | or in the future. Yet this cannot be, if it is where God wills His | Son to be. How could the Will of God be in the past or yet to happen? |
| W1:131.9 | conflict. Nor is His creation split in two. How could it be His | Son could be in hell when God Himself established him in Heaven? |
| W1:131.10 | Today we will not choose a paradox in place of truth. How could the | Son of God make time to take away the Will of God? He thus denies |
| W1:131.17 | that day has come. Today God keeps His ancient promise to His holy | Son, as does His Son remember his to Him. This is a day of gladness, |
| W1:131.17 | Today God keeps His ancient promise to His holy Son, as does His | Son remember his to Him. This is a day of gladness, for we come to |
| W1:132.13 | but as God in truth. God shares His Fatherhood with you who are His | Son, for He makes no distinctions in what is Himself and what is |
| W1:132.13 | creates is not apart from Him, and nowhere does the Father end, the | Son begin as something separate from Him. |
| W1:132.14 | is a thought apart from God and made to separate the Father and the | Son and break away a part of God Himself and thus destroy His |
| W1:135.5 | little life? What but the body falters and must fail to serve the | Son of God as worthy host? |
| W1:135.29 | And I would keep it holy. I will not defend myself, because the | Son of God needs no defense against the truth of his reality. |
| W1:136.10 | more frail than hell, and God's design for the salvation of His | Son opposed by a decision stronger than His Will. His Son is dust, |
| W1:136.10 | of His Son opposed by a decision stronger than His Will. His | Son is dust, the Father incomplete, and chaos sits in triumph on His |
| W1:137.3 | sees the body has no power to attack the universal oneness of God's | Son. |
| W1:137.15 | the world, that sickness may be banished from the mind of God's one | Son, Who is my only Self. |
| W1:139.9 | This does Atonement teach and demonstrates the oneness of God's | Son is unassailed by his belief he knows not what he is. Today accept |
| W1:139.13 | all the foolish cobwebs which the world would weave around the holy | Son of God. And learn the fragile nature of the chains that seem to |
| W1:140.10 | healing which will cure all ills as one, restoring saneness to the | Son of God. No voice but this can cure. Today we hear a single Voice |
| W1:R4.4 | is. It is this thought by which the Father gave creation to the | Son, establishing the Son as co-creator with Himself. It is this |
| W1:R4.4 | by which the Father gave creation to the Son, establishing the | Son as co-creator with Himself. It is this thought which fully |
| W1:R4.4 | Himself. It is this thought which fully guarantees salvation to the | Son. For in his mind no thoughts can dwell but those his Father |
| W1:151.7 | by such idle witnesses, which merely bear false witness to God's | Son. He recognizes only what God loves, and in the holy light of what |
| W1:151.9 | can the body mean to Him Who knows the glory of the Father and the | Son? What whispers of the ego can He hear? What could convince Him |
| W1:151.14 | joyously proclaim the wholeness and the happiness God wills His | Son as proof of His eternal Love. And as each thought is thus |
| W1:151.15 | as all your thoughts are purified. So are you taught to teach the | Son of God the holy lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail to listen |
| W1:151.15 | fail to listen when you hear the Voice for God give honor to God's | Son. And everyone will share the thoughts with you which He has |
| W1:152.8 | of self-deceptions made but to usurp the altar to the Father and the | Son. |
| W1:152.9 | wholeness—all-encompassing, God's perfect gift to His beloved | Son. |
| W1:152.10 | own. And we accept of Him that which we are and humbly recognize the | Son of God. |
| W1:152.11 | To recognize God's | Son implies as well that all self-concepts have been laid aside and |
| W1:152.11 | arrogance has been perceived. And in humility the radiance of God's | Son, his gentleness, his perfect sinlessness, his Father's Love, his |
| W1:152.15 | frantic thoughts, the truth of God for self-deceptions, and God's | Son for your illusions of yourself. |
| W1:153.5 | the holy peace of God by your defensiveness. For you behold the | Son of God as but a victim to attack by fantasies, by dreams, and by |
| W1:153.8 | to cross our minds, and we mistook the figures in it for the | Son of God, its tiny instant for eternity. |
| W1:153.13 | forever from the pure and holy minds of Heaven's children and the | Son of God. We pause but for a moment more to play our final happy |
| W1:153.14 | in his confused, bewildered memory of this distorted tale. God's | Son can smile at last on learning that it is not true. |
| W1:154.3 | in everything you do that is related to it. God has joined His | Son in this, and thus His Son becomes His messenger of unity with Him. |
| W1:154.3 | that is related to it. God has joined His Son in this, and thus His | Son becomes His messenger of unity with Him. |
| W1:154.4 | It is this joining through the Voice of God of Father and of | Son that sets apart salvation from the world. It is this Voice which |
| W1:154.12 | what you already have nor has denied the tiniest of blessings to His | Son. What can this mean to you until you have identified with him and |
| W1:155.8 | but only gain. Illusion can but seem to hold in chains the holy | Son of God. It is but from illusions he is saved. As they step back, |
| W1:155.11 | on all the things that pass, and miracles are purposeless, the holy | Son of God will make no journeys. There will be no wish to be |
| W1:155.12 | you more than everything or offer less and still content the holy | Son of God? We walk to God. The truth that walks before us now is one |
| W1:155.13 | you elsewhere. Dreams are not a worthy guide for you who are God's | Son. Forget not He has placed His hand in yours and given you your |
| W1:158.2 | in the way that vision can. The revelation that the Father and the | Son are one will come in time to every mind. Yet is that time |
| W1:158.7 | has one law. It does not look upon a body and mistake it for the | Son whom God created. It beholds a light beyond the body, an idea |
| W1:158.8 | And this you give today—see no one as a body. Greet him as the | Son of God he is, acknowledging that he is one with you in holiness. |
| W1:159.10 | worth the gift when God appointed it be given you? Judge not God's | Son, but follow in the way He has established. Christ has dreamed the |
| W1:160.4 | fear or you that is unsuited to the home which God provided for His | Son? Is fear His own, created in His likeness? Is it fear that love |
| W1:160.7 | place. Yet is your Self as certain of Its own as God is of His | Son. He cannot be confused about creation. He is sure of what belongs |
| W1:160.7 | Son's reality. He does not know of strangers. He is certain of His | Son. |
| W1:160.8 | His certainty suffices. Who He knows to be His | Son belongs where He has set His Son forever. He has answered you who |
| W1:160.8 | suffices. Who He knows to be His Son belongs where He has set His | Son forever. He has answered you who ask, “Who is the stranger?” Hear |
| W1:161.14 | Give me your blessing, holy | Son of God. I would behold you with the eyes of Christ, and see my |
| W1:162.2 | Here is the Word by which the | Son became His Father's happiness, His Love, and His completion. Here |
| W1:162.6 | light is come today to bless the world, for you have recognized the | Son of God, and in your recognition is the world's. |
| W1:163.4 | perfect, changeless constancy. Here is the Will of Father and of | Son defeated finally and laid to rest beneath the headstone death has |
| W1:163.4 | beneath the headstone death has placed upon the body of the holy | Son of God. |
| W1:163.7 | and so eternal life gave way to death. And with the Father died the | Son as well. |
| W1:164.9 | withhold so little when His Hand holds out complete salvation to His | Son? |
| W1:165.6 | destiny lies there and nowhere else. Would God consent to let His | Son remain forever starved by his denial of the nourishment he needs |
| W1:166.1 | things are given you. God's trust in you is limitless. He knows His | Son. He gives without exception, holding nothing back that can |
| W1:166.9 | Perhaps He has not wholly been outwitted by your plan to keep His | Son in deep oblivion and go the way you chose without your Self. |
| W1:167.1 | to God does not exist. There is no death because the Father and the | Son are one. |
| W1:168.1 | suffer from deception. He remains entirely accessible. He loves His | Son. There is no certainty but this, yet this suffices. He will love |
| W1:168.1 | There is no certainty but this, yet this suffices. He will love His | Son forever. When his mind remains asleep, He loves him still. And |
| W1:168.4 | God loves His | Son. Request Him now to give the means by which this world will |
| W1:168.6 | us He gives and we receive. Such is His Will because He loves His | Son. To Him we pray today, returning but the words He gave to us |
| W1:168.7 | Father, I come to You. And You will come to me who asks. I am the | Son You love. |
| W1:169.4 | contradict our statement that the revelation of the Father and the | Son as one has been already set. But we have also said the mind |
| W1:169.6 | all thought of time, forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. The | Son of God has merely disappeared into His Father, as his Father has |
| W1:169.8 | script in His Creator's name and in the name of His Creator's | Son. |
| W1:R5.8 | the way that led him out and now will lead you out with him. God's | Son is crucified until you walk along the road with me. |
| W1:R5.11 | alone. In him I walk with you and you with me. Our Father wills His | Son be one with Him. What lives but must not then be one with you? |
| W1:R5.12 | And your wholeness now complete, as God established it. You are His | Son, completing His extension in your own. We practice but an ancient |
| W1:176.2 | [161] Give me your blessing, holy | Son of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:177.2 | [163] There is no death. The | Son of God is free. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:182.5 | It is this Child in you your Father knows as His own | Son. It is this Child Who knows His Father. He desires to go home so |
| W1:183.1 | call upon His Name is but to call upon your own. A father gives his | son his name, and thus identifies the son with him. His brothers |
| W1:183.1 | your own. A father gives his son his name, and thus identifies the | son with him. His brothers share his name, and thus are they united |
| W1:183.5 | nameless for the Name, nor sin for grace, nor bodies for the holy | Son of God. |
| W1:183.6 | established there an altar which reaches to God Himself and to His | Son. Practice but this today; repeat God's Name slowly again and |
| W1:183.8 | Him thus. He cannot hear requests that He be not Himself or that His | Son receive another name than His. |
| W1:183.9 | Him as sole Creator of reality. And you acknowledge also that His | Son is part of Him, creating in His Name. Sit silently, and let His |
| W1:183.11 | it. words are insignificant and all requests unneeded when God's | Son calls on his Father's Name. His Father's Thoughts become his own. |
| W1:183.12 | of earth have disappeared. The universe consists of nothing but the | Son of God who calls upon his Father. And his Father's Voice gives |
| W1:184.12 | answer to the pitiful inheritance you made as fitting tribute to the | Son He loves. |
| W1:184.14 | we use a different name for each awareness of an aspect of God's | Son, we understand that they have but One Name, Which He has given |
| W1:186.3 | you and offers you the perfect trust He holds in you who are His | Son. It does not ask that you be different in any way from what you |
| W1:186.7 | you and not upon this little pile of dust. What can it tell the holy | Son of God? Why need he be concerned with it at all? |
| W1:186.9 | Is this the | Son of God? Could He create such instability and call it Son? He Who |
| W1:186.9 | Is this the Son of God? Could He create such instability and call it | Son? He Who is changeless shares His attributes with His creation. |
| W1:186.9 | shares His attributes with His creation. All the images His | Son appears to make have no effect on what he is. They blow across |
| W1:186.13 | have everything already. He has thoughts which answer every need His | Son perceives, although He sees them not. For Love must give, and |
| W1:187.10 | one Father, one Creator and one thought, we stand together as one | Son of God. Not separate from Him Who is our Source; not distant from |
| W1:188.6 | And they point surely to their Source where God the Father and the | Son are one. |
| W1:189.8 | simply to allow all obstacles that you have interposed between the | Son and God the Father to be quietly removed forever. God will do His |
| W1:189.9 | surely there if it be true, and can be surely reached. God knows His | Son and knows the way to him. He does not need His Son to show Him |
| W1:189.9 | God knows His Son and knows the way to him. He does not need His | Son to show Him how to find His way. Through every opened door His |
| W1:190.1 | be real in any form? It witnesses to God the Father's hatred of His | Son, the sinfulness He sees in him, and His insane desire for revenge |
| W1:190.2 | of abandonment by an eternal Love which could not leave the | Son whom It created out of love. |
| W1:190.3 | is dead, has shown that death is victor over life. The body is the | Son of God, corruptible in death, as mortal as the Father he has |
| W1:190.8 | you have gladly paid not to be free. In pain is God denied the | Son He loves. In pain does fear appear to triumph over love and time |
| W1:191.1 | what you have done by giving to the world the role of jailer to the | Son of God. What could it be but vicious and afraid, fearful of |
| W1:191.6 | One holy thought like this, and you are free: you are the holy | Son of God Himself. And with this holy thought, you learn as well |
| W1:191.8 | I am the holy | Son of God Himself. I cannot suffer, cannot be in pain; I cannot |
| W1:191.10 | since time began. For time has lost its hold upon the world. The | Son of God has come in glory to redeem the lost, to save the |
| W1:191.10 | forgiveness. Who could see the world as dark and sinful when God's | Son has come again at last to set it free? |
| W1:191.12 | Then let the | Son of God awaken from his sleep, and opening his holy eyes return |
| W1:191.13 | They die till you accept your own eternal life. You are the holy | Son of God Himself. Remember this and all the world is free. Remember |
| W1:192.1 | that you complete Himself and that your Self shall be His sacred | Son, forever pure as He, of love created and in love preserved, |
| W1:192.6 | forgiveness can restore the peace that God intended for His holy | Son. Only forgiveness can persuade the Son to look again upon his |
| W1:192.6 | God intended for His holy Son. Only forgiveness can persuade the | Son to look again upon his holiness. With anger gone, you will indeed |
| W1:192.10 | Be merciful today. The | Son of God deserves your mercy. It is he who asks that you accept the |
| W1:193.1 | to what He does not understand in that He wills the happiness His | Son inherited of Him be undisturbed, eternal and forever gaining |
| W1:193.2 | God sees no contradictions. Yet His | Son believes he sees them. Thus he has a need for One Who can correct |
| W1:193.2 | let the light of Heaven shine upon it. It is He Who answers what His | Son would contradict and keeps his sinlessness forever safe. |
| W1:193.3 | Love and making Answer to a question which, though meaningless, His | Son had asked of Him.] |
| W1:193.4 | the foolish thoughts which crept into the mind of His most holy | Son with peace and joy fulfills His function now. He redirects each |
| W1:193.5 | Will reflects them all, and they reflect His loving kindness to the | Son He loves. Each lesson has a central thought, the same in all of |
| W1:193.12 | not have you suffer thus. He would help you forgive yourself. His | Son does not remember who he is. And God would have him not forget |
| W1:193.12 | you that all pain may disappear and God may be remembered by His | Son? |
| W1:193.13 | thought without correction nor one thorn or nail to hurt His sacred | Son in any way. He would ensure his holy rest remain untroubled and |
| W1:193.13 | God has willed that laughter should replace each one and that His | Son be free again. |
| W1:194.5 | into a holy instant when the light that was kept hidden in God's | Son is freed to bless the world. Now is he free, and all his glory |
| W1:195.9 | for these insane perceptions. God has cared for us and calls us | Son. Can there be more than this? |
| W1:195.10 | which is the Source of all creation. God gives thanks to you, His | Son, for being what you are—His own completion and the source of |
| W1:196.11 | you from illusions in His Love, calling Him Father and yourself His | Son. Pray that the instant may be soon—today. Step back from fear |
| W1:197.8 | Thanks be to you, the holy | Son of God, for as you were created you contain all things within |
| W1:198.3 | with the certainty of God Himself. It is a dream in which the | Son of God awakens to his Self and to his Father, knowing They are |
| W1:198.7 | justified. Yet all are one—a place where death is offered to God's | Son and to his Father. You may think They have accepted, but if you |
| W1:198.8 | How mad to think that you could be condemned and that the holy | Son of God can die! The stillness of your Self remains unmoved, |
| W1:198.12 | the one illusion which proclaims there is no condemnation in God's | Son, and Heaven is remembered instantly; the world forgotten, all its |
| W1:198.13 | vanished from the mind which God forever knows to be His only | Son. |
| W1:198.14 | is his? And who could dream of offering forgiveness to the | Son of Sinlessness Itself, so like to Him Whose Son he is, that to |
| W1:198.14 | forgiveness to the Son of Sinlessness Itself, so like to Him Whose | Son he is, that to behold the Son is to perceive no more and only |
| W1:198.14 | Itself, so like to Him Whose Son he is, that to behold the | Son is to perceive no more and only know the Father? In this vision |
| W1:198.14 | to perceive no more and only know the Father? In this vision of the | Son, so brief that not an instant stands between this single sight |
| W1:199.8 | You are God's | Son. In immortality you live forever. Would you not return your mind |
| W1:199.8 | released with you in it; the world is blessed along with you; God's | Son will weep no more, and Heaven offers thanks for the increase of |
| W1:200.6 | it must serve a mighty function. Is not the escape of God's beloved | Son from evil dreams that he imagines, yet believes are true, a |
| W1:200.7 | There is no peace except the peace of God because He has one | Son, who cannot make a world in opposition to God's Will and to his |
| W1:200.9 | is sure, and He will guide our footsteps. He will not desert His | Son in need, nor let him stray forever from his home. The Father |
| W1:200.9 | need, nor let him stray forever from his home. The Father calls; the | Son will hear. And that is all there is to what appears to be a world |
| W1:204.1 | Name of God is my inheritance. God's Name reminds me that I am His | Son, not slave to time, unbound by laws which rule the world of sick |
| W1:206.1 | depends on me. I am entrusted with the gifts of God because I am His | Son. And I would give His gifts where He intended them to be. I am |
| W1:209.1 | Love of God is everything I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His | Son. The Love of God within me sets me free. I am not a body. I am |
| W1:210.1 | Him and from His Will. His Will is joy and only joy for His beloved | Son. And that I choose instead of what I made. I am not a body. I am |
| W1:211.1 | [191] I am the holy | Son of God Himself. In silence and in true humility, I seek God's |
| W1:211.1 | silence and in true humility, I seek God's glory to behold it in the | Son whom He created as my Self. I am not a body. I am free. For I am |
| W1:219.1 | [199] I am not a body. I am free. I am God's | Son. Be still, my mind, and think a moment upon this. And then return |
| W1:219.1 | to earth without confusion as to what my Father loves forever as His | Son. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created me. |
| W2:I.3 | He has promised. We have called on Him, and He has promised that His | Son will not remain unanswered when he calls His Name. |
| W2:I.4 | He would not fail to take when we invited Him. He has not left His | Son in all his madness nor betrayed His trust in him. Has not His |
| W2:I.7 | will to keep. We will with You in asking this. The Father and the | Son, Whose holy will created all that is, can fail in nothing. In |
| W2:I.7 | You and rest in confidence upon Your Love, Which will not fail the | Son who calls to You. |
| W2:I.9 | We had a wish that God would fail to have the | Son whom He created for Himself. We wanted God to change Himself and |
| W2:WF.1 | all your sins forgiven. What is sin except a false idea about God's | Son? Forgiveness merely sees its falsity and therefore lets it go. |
| W2:WF.5 | He has saved, whose sinlessness He sees, and whom He honors as the | Son of God. |
| W2:221.2 | hear Him speak to us of what we are, and to reveal Himself unto His | Son. |
| W2:222.1 | pain. He covers me with kindness and with care and holds in love the | Son He shines upon, who also shines on Him. How still is he who knows |
| W2:223.2 | the face of Christ instead of our mistakes. For we who are Your holy | Son are sinless. We would look upon our sinlessness, for guilt |
| W2:223.2 | look upon our sinlessness, for guilt proclaims that we are not Your | Son. And we would not forget You longer. We are lonely here and long |
| W2:223.2 | would return. Our Name is Yours, and we acknowledge that we are Your | Son. |
| W2:225.1 | with fear behind and only peace ahead. How still the way Your loving | Son is led along to You! |
| W2:227.2 | we find our glad return to Heaven, which we never really left. The | Son of God this day lays down his dreams. The Son of God this day |
| W2:227.2 | never really left. The Son of God this day lays down his dreams. The | Son of God this day comes home again, released from sin and clad in |
| W2:228.1 | He is my Creator and the One Who knows the true condition of His | Son? |
| W2:230.2 | time and still remains beyond all change. The peace in which Your | Son was born into Your Mind is shining there unchanged. I am as You |
| W2:230.2 | You to find the peace You gave. It is Your will that gave it to Your | Son. |
| W2:WS.2 | The thought of peace was given to God's | Son the instant that his mind had thought of war. There was no need |
| W2:WS.5 | world that freedom is returned, that time is almost over, and God's | Son has but an instant more to wait until his Father is remembered, |
| W2:232.1 | sure of my safety, certain of Your care, and happily aware I am Your | Son. |
| W2:232.2 | reveal all things to you, and be you undismayed because you are His | Son. |
| W2:234.1 | has ever happened to disturb the peace of God the Father and the | Son. This we accept as wholly true today. |
| W2:235.1 | has come to me. And I need but remember that His Love surrounds His | Son and keeps his sinlessness forever perfect to be sure that I am |
| W2:235.1 | to be sure that I am saved and safe forever in His arms. I am the | Son He loves. And I am saved because God in His mercy wills it so. |
| W2:237.2 | Voice of God today. Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your | Son and my true Self as well. Amen. |
| W2:238.1 | I must be steadfast in holiness as well, that You would give Your | Son to me in certainty that He is safe Who still is part of You and |
| W2:238.2 | we pause to think how much our Father loves us. And how dear His | Son, created by His Love, remains to Him Whose Love is made complete |
| W2:239.1 | guilt? And can it be that we are not among them when He loves His | Son forever and with perfect constancy, knowing he is as He created |
| W2:240.1 | own illusions of yourself. Let us not be deceived today. We are the | Son of God. There is no fear in us, for we are each a part of Love |
| W2:240.2 | How foolish are our fears! Would You allow Your | Son to suffer? Give us faith today to recognize Your Son and set him |
| W2:240.2 | You allow Your Son to suffer? Give us faith today to recognize Your | Son and set him free. Let us forgive him in Your Name, that we may |
| W2:WIW.2 | was meant to be a place where God could enter not and where His | Son could be apart from Him. Here was perception born, for knowledge |
| W2:241.2 | one another now, and so we come at last to You again. Father, Your | Son, who never left, returns to Heaven and his home. How glad are we |
| W2:244.1 | Your | Son is safe wherever he may be, for You are there with him. He need |
| W2:245.1 | my Father. Let me bring Your peace with me. For I would save Your | Son as is Your Will, that I may come to recognize my Self. |
| W2:246.1 | to God if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not try to hurt God's | Son and think that I can know his Father or my Self. Let me not fail |
| W2:246.2 | is what I will as well and only that. And so I choose to love Your | Son. Amen. |
| W2:248.1 | Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies about the holy | Son of God. Now am I ready to accept him back as God created him, and |
| W2:248.2 | Father, my ancient love for You returns and lets me love Your | Son again as well. Father, I am as You created me. Now is Your Love |
| W2:249.1 | into the Light that it reflects. And so the journey which the | Son of God began has ended in the Light from Which he came. |
| W2:250.1 | Let me behold the | Son of God today and witness to his glory. Let me not try to obscure |
| W2:250.2 | He is Your | Son, my Father. And today I would behold his gentleness instead of my |
| W2:WIS.3 | are the “proof” that what has no reality is real. Sin “proves” God's | Son is evil; timelessness must have an end; eternal life must die. |
| W2:WIS.3 | have an end; eternal life must die. And God Himself has lost the | Son He loves, with but corruption to complete Himself, His Will |
| W2:WIS.4 | to terrify. And yet what sin perceives is but a childish game. The | Son of God may play he has become a body, prey to evil and to guilt, |
| W2:WIS.5 | How long, oh | Son of God, will you maintain the game of sin? Shall we not put away |
| W2:WIS.5 | Would you still hold return to Heaven back? How long, oh holy | Son of God, how long? |
| W2:252.2 | Father, You know my true Identity. Reveal it now to me who am Your | Son, that I may waken to the truth in You and know that Heaven is |
| W2:253.2 | You are the Self Whom You created | Son, creating like Yourself and one with You. My Self, Which rules |
| W2:255.1 | choose to have but peace today. And yet my God assures me that His | Son is like Himself. Let me this day have faith in Him Who says I am |
| W2:255.1 | like Himself. Let me this day have faith in Him Who says I am God's | Son. And let the peace I choose be mine today bear witness to the |
| W2:255.1 | be mine today bear witness to the truth of what He says. God's | Son can have no cares and must remain forever in the peace of Heaven. |
| W2:255.2 | And so, my Father, would I pass this day with You. Your | Son has not forgotten You. The peace You gave him still is in his |
| W2:260.1 | I have not left my Source, remaining part of What created me. Your | Son, my Father, calls on You today. Let me remember You created me. |
| W2:WIB.1 | The body is a fence the | Son of God imagines he has built to separate parts of his Self from |
| W2:WIB.2 | The body will not stay. Yet this he sees as double “safety.” For the | Son of God's impermanence is “proof” his fences work and do the task |
| W2:WIB.2 | And if he did not die, what “proof” is there that God's eternal | Son can be destroyed? |
| W2:WIB.4 | The body is the means by which God's | Son returns to sanity. Though it was made to fence him into hell |
| W2:WIB.4 | has the goal of Heaven been exchanged for the pursuit of hell. The | Son of God extends his hand to reach his brother and to help him walk |
| W2:261.2 | home to You today. I choose to be as You created me and find the | Son whom You created as my Self. |
| W2:262.1 | Father, You have one | Son. And it is he that I would look upon today. He is Your one |
| W2:262.1 | I give this one a thousand names, when only one suffices? For Your | Son must bear Your Name, for You created him. Let me not see him as a |
| W2:262.1 | are our Source, eternally united in Your Love, eternally the holy | Son of God. |
| W2:264.1 | and place becomes a meaningless belief. For what surrounds Your | Son and keeps him safe is Love Itself. There is no Source but This, |
| W2:264.1 | without the Love Which holds all things within Itself. Father, Your | Son is like Yourself. We come to You in Your own Name today, to be at |
| W2:266.1 | and in them does Christ look back upon me from my Self. Let not Your | Son forget Your holy Name. Let not Your Son forget his holy Source. |
| W2:266.1 | from my Self. Let not Your Son forget Your holy Name. Let not Your | Son forget his holy Source. Let not Your Son forget Your name is his. |
| W2:266.1 | holy Name. Let not Your Son forget his holy Source. Let not Your | Son forget Your name is his. |
| W2:269.1 | what I look upon belongs to me, that nothing is except Your holy | Son. |
| W2:269.2 | face of Him Whose Self is ours. We are one because of Him Who is the | Son of God, of Him Who is our own Identity. |
| W2:270.1 | in it than sight can give. The world forgiven signifies Your | Son acknowledges his Father, lets his dreams be brought to truth, and |
| W2:270.2 | His sight, we offer healing to the world through Him, the holy | Son whom God created whole, the holy Son whom God created one. |
| W2:270.2 | the world through Him, the holy Son whom God created whole, the holy | Son whom God created one. |
| W2:WIC.1 | Christ is God's | Son as He created Him. He is the Self we share, uniting us with one |
| W2:WIC.4 | when forgiveness rests upon the world and peace has come to every | Son of God, what could remain to keep things separate, for what |
| W2:WIC.5 | or anything except the holy Self, the Christ Whom God created as His | Son. |
| W2:271.1 | that He looks on but must live, remembering the Father and the | Son; Creator and creation unified. |
| W2:272.1 | illusions bring me happiness? What but Your memory can satisfy Your | Son? I will accept no less than You have given me. I am surrounded by |
| W2:272.1 | by Your Love, forever still, forever gentle, and forever safe. God's | Son must be as You created him. |
| W2:273.1 | nothing can intrude upon the peace that God Himself has given to His | Son. |
| W2:273.2 | keep? I cannot lose Your gifts to me. And so the peace You gave Your | Son is with me still, in quietness and in my own eternal love for You. |
| W2:274.1 | today I would let all things be as You created them and give Your | Son the honor due his sinlessness, the love of brother to his brother |
| W2:274.1 | where illusions were, light will replace all darkness, and Your | Son will know he is as You created him. |
| W2:276.1 | What is the Word of God? “My | Son is pure and holy as Myself.” And thus did God become the Father |
| W2:276.1 | pure and holy as Myself.” And thus did God become the Father of the | Son He loves, for thus was he created. This the Word His Son did not |
| W2:276.1 | of the Son He loves, for thus was he created. This the Word His | Son did not create with Him because in this His Son was born. Let us |
| W2:276.1 | This the Word His Son did not create with Him because in this His | Son was born. Let us accept His Fatherhood, and all is given us. Deny |
| W2:277.1 | Your | Son is free, my Father. Let me not imagine I have bound him with the |
| W2:277.2 | believe in any laws idolatry would make to hide the freedom of the | Son of God. He is not bound except by his beliefs. Yet what he is, is |
| W2:277.2 | faith in slavery or freedom. He is free, because he is his Father's | Son. And he cannot be bound unless God's Truth can lie and God can |
| W2:279.1 | The end of dreams is promised me because God's | Son is not abandoned by His Love. Only in dreams is there a time when |
| W2:279.2 | Your promises today and give my faith to them. My Father loves the | Son Whom He created as His own. Would You withhold the gifts You gave |
| W2:280.1 | all. No Thought of God but is forever pure. Can I lay limits on the | Son of God, whose Father willed that he be limitless and like Himself |
| W2:280.2 | Today let me give honor to Your | Son, for thus alone I find the way to You. Father, I lay no limits on |
| W2:280.2 | for thus alone I find the way to You. Father, I lay no limits on the | Son You love and You created limitless. The honor that I give to him |
| W2:WIHS.5 | gift by Which the quietness of Heaven is restored to God's beloved | Son. Would you refuse to take the function of completing God when all |
| W2:281.1 | Father, Your | Son is perfect. When he thinks that he is hurt in any way, it is |
| W2:281.2 | me safe in Heaven, watching over me. And I would not attack the | Son He loves, for what He loves is mine to love as well. |
| W2:282.1 | And this the choice to recognize the Self Whom God created as the | Son He loves and Who remains my one Reality. |
| W2:283.1 | Father, I made an image of myself, and it is this I call the | Son of God. Yet is creation as it always was, for Your creation is |
| W2:283.1 | of You secure? Is not the light of Heaven infinite? Is not Your | Son my true Identity, when You created everything that is? |
| W2:285.2 | me rejoice in it and through forgiveness be restored to sanity. Your | Son is still as You created him. My holiness is part of me and also |
| W2:287.2 | and futile substitutions for the truth? You are my only goal. Your | Son would be as You created him. What way but this could I expect to |
| W2:289.2 | for Your final step. Shall I demand that You wait longer for Your | Son to find the loveliness You planned to be the end of all his |
| W2:WIRW.4 | is the symbol that the dream of sin and guilt is over and God's | Son no longer sleeps. His waking eyes perceive the sure reflection of |
| W2:291.2 | know the way to You. But You are wholly certain. Father, lead Your | Son along the quiet path that ends in You. Let my forgiveness be |
| W2:294.1 | I am a | Son of God. And can I be another thing as well? Did God create the |
| W2:294.1 | God create the mortal and corruptible? What use has God's beloved | Son for what must die? And yet a neutral thing does not see death, |
| W2:294.2 | My body, Father, cannot be Your | Son. And what is not created cannot be sinful or sinless, neither |
| W2:298.2 | that would obscure my love for God, my Father, and His holy | Son. |
| W2:WISC.4 | that they all are one. And God the Father smiles upon His | Son, His one creation and His only joy. |
| W2:WISC.5 | can do God's Will and join together in its holy light. Behold, the | Son of God is one in us, and we can reach our Father's Love through |
| W2:302.1 | and we can see. We thought we suffered. But we had forgot the | Son whom You created. Now we see that darkness is our own imagining |
| W2:303.1 | God's holy thoughts surround me and be still with me while Heaven's | Son is born. Let earthly sounds be quiet and the sights to which I am |
| W2:303.2 | Your | Son is welcome, Father. He has come to save me from the evil self I |
| W2:303.2 | You have given me. He is but what I really am in truth. He is the | Son You love above all things. He is my Self as You created me. It is |
| W2:303.2 | Christ that can be crucified. Safe in Your arms, let me receive Your | Son. |
| W2:304.2 | world. It is Your gift, my Father, given me to offer to Your holy | Son that he may find again the memory of You and of Your Son as You |
| W2:304.2 | Your holy Son that he may find again the memory of You and of Your | Son as You created him. |
| W2:306.2 | but what You give. We cannot make an offering sufficient for Your | Son. But in Your Love, the gift of Christ is his. |
| W2:307.1 | will for me and enter into peace where conflict is impossible. Your | Son is one with You in being and in will, and nothing contradicts the |
| W2:309.1 | it is God's Will that it be there forever and forever. I, His | Son, whose will is limitless as is His own, can will no change in |
| W2:310.1 | to me is not of days nor hours, for it comes from Heaven to Your | Son. This day will be Your sweet reminder to remember You, Your |
| W2:310.1 | sweet reminder to remember You, Your gracious calling to Your holy | Son, the sign Your grace has come to me and that it is Your will that |
| W2:WILJ.1 | Christ's Second Coming gives the | Son of God the gift to hear the Voice for God proclaim that what is |
| W2:WILJ.2 | it. Bodies now are useless and will therefore fade away because the | Son of God is limitless. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | is as merciful as every step in His appointed plan to bless His | Son and call him to return to the eternal peace He shares with him. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | wipe away all tears, and gently waken from his dream of pain the | Son whom God acknowledges as His. Be not afraid of this. Salvation |
| W2:WILJ.5 | This is God's Final Judgment: “You are still My holy | Son, forever innocent, forever loving and forever loved, as limitless |
| W2:WILJ.5 | Therefore awaken and return to Me. I am your Father and you are My | Son.” |
| W2:311.1 | and re-establish peace of mind by giving you God's Judgment of His | Son. |
| W2:311.2 | Father, we wait with open mind today to hear Your Judgment of the | Son You love. We do not know him, and we cannot judge. And so we let |
| W2:311.2 | And so we let Your Love decide what he whom You created as Your | Son must be. |
| W2:313.1 | which You have kept completely undefiled upon the altar to Your holy | Son, the Self with which I would identify. |
| W2:315.2 | for the many gifts that come to me today and every day from every | Son of God. My brothers are unlimited in all their gifts to me. Now |
| W2:317.2 | all my sorrows end in Your embrace, which You have promised to Your | Son, who thought mistakenly that he had wandered from the sure |
| W2:318.1 | In me, God's holy | Son, are reconciled all parts of Heaven's plan to save the world. |
| W2:318.1 | more or less importance than the rest? I am the means by which God's | Son is saved because salvation's purpose is to find the sinlessness |
| W2:318.1 | thing I seek. I am the goal the world is searching for. I am God's | Son, His one Eternal Love. I am salvation's means and end as well. |
| W2:320.1 | The | Son of God is limitless. There are no limits on his strength, his |
| W2:320.2 | is no limit on Your Will. And so all power has been given to Your | Son. |
| W2:WICR.2 | own Creator has. For He would add to Love by its extension. Thus His | Son shares in creation and must therefore share in power to create. |
| W2:WICR.3 | of all illusions, for creation is the truth. Creation is the holy | Son of God, for in creation is His Will complete in every aspect, |
| W2:321.1 | But I trust in You. You Who endowed me with my freedom as Your holy | Son will not be lost to me. Your Voice directs me. And the way to You |
| W2:322.1 | And every dream serves only to conceal the Self which is God's only | Son, the likeness of Himself, the Holy One who still abides in Him |
| W2:323.1 | Here is the only “sacrifice” You ask of Your beloved | Son—You ask him to give up all suffering, all sense of loss and |
| W2:325.1 | thoughts a gentle world comes forth, with mercy for the holy | Son of God, to offer him a kindly home where he can rest a while |
| W2:326.1 | all Your attributes abide in me because it is Your will to have a | Son so like his Cause that Cause and Its Effect are |
| W2:326.1 | earth will disappear and separate thoughts unite in glory as the | Son of God. |
| W2:330.2 | Father, Your | Son cannot be hurt. And if we think we suffer, we but fail to know |
| W2:WIE.3 | The | Son of God is egoless. What can he know of madness and the death of |
| W2:WIE.4 | the price for faith in it is so immense that crucifixion of the | Son of God is offered daily at its darkened shrine and blood must |
| W2:WIE.5 | will be restored forever to the holy minds which God created as His | Son, His dwelling-place, His joy, His love, completely His, |
| W2:331.1 | How foolish, Father, to believe Your | Son could cause himself to suffer! Could he make a plan for his |
| W2:333.2 | alone will never fail in anything, being Your gift to Your beloved | Son. |
| W2:334.2 | I seek but the eternal. For Your | Son can be content with nothing less than this. What then can be his |
| W2:335.2 | one with me and like myself. In him I find my Self, and in Your | Son I find the memory of You as well. |
| W2:337.1 | Love protecting me from harm, to understand my Father loves His | Son, to know I am the Son my Father loves. |
| W2:337.1 | from harm, to understand my Father loves His Son, to know I am the | Son my Father loves. |
| W2:338.1 | of love. He crucified himself. Yet God has planned that His beloved | Son will be redeemed. |
| W2:338.2 | me promises to lead me home, because it holds Your promise to Your | Son. |
| W2:340.1 | freedom I am certain it will bring. This day is holy, for today Your | Son will be redeemed. His suffering is done. For he will hear Your |
| W2:340.1 | achieve this day and what it holds in joy and freedom for Your holy | Son and for the world he made, which is released along with him today. |
| W2:340.2 | for anything but joy and thanks today. Our Father has redeemed His | Son this day! Not one of us but will be saved today. Not one who will |
| W2:341.1 | Father, Your | Son is holy. I am he on whom You smile in love and tenderness so deep |
| W2:341.1 | so perfect that the Lord of Sinlessness conceives us as His | Son, a universe of thought completing Him. |
| W2:342.1 | as You would have it be and as it is. Let me remember that I am Your | Son, and opening the door at last, forget illusions in the blazing |
| W2:343.1 | given unto me forever and forever. As I was created, I remain. Your | Son can make no sacrifice, for he must be complete, having the |
| W2:343.1 | the function of completing You. I am complete because I am Your | Son. I cannot lose, for I can only give. And everything is mine |
| W2:344.1 | alone are real. Thus is the law of love fulfilled. And thus Your | Son arises and returns to You. |
| W2:344.2 | How close the ending of the dream of sin and the redemption of the | Son of God. |
| W2:345.1 | Father, a miracle reflects Your gifts to me, Your | Son. And every one I give returns to me, reminding me the law of love |
| W2:346.1 | law of Love. And I would find the peace which You created for Your | Son, forgetting all the foolish toys I made as I behold Your glory |
| W2:347.2 | the gentle Voice for God assuring you that He has judged you as the | Son He loves. |
| W2:350.1 | What we forgive becomes a part of us as we perceive ourselves. The | Son of God incorporates all things within himself as You created him. |
| W2:350.2 | from Him, we will indeed be grateful. For as we remember Him, His | Son will be restored to us in the Reality of Love. |
| W2:WAI.1 | I am God's | Son, complete and healed and whole, shining in the reflection of His |
| W2:WAI.5 | we came and which we seek to serve. We bring glad tidings to the | Son of God, who thought he suffered. Now is he redeemed. And as he |
| W2:351.1 | Who is my brother but Your holy | Son? And if I see him sinful, I proclaim myself a sinner, not a Son |
| W2:351.1 | holy Son? And if I see him sinful, I proclaim myself a sinner, not a | Son of God, alone and friendless in a fearful world. Yet this |
| W2:351.1 | and can relinquish. I can also see my brother sinless as Your holy | Son. And with this choice I see my sinlessness, my everlasting |
| W2:354.1 | My oneness with the Christ establishes me as Your | Son, beyond the reach of time and wholly free of every law but Yours. |
| W2:354.1 | must I be one with You as well as Him. For who is Christ except Your | Son as You created Him? And what am I except the Christ in me? |
| W2:355.1 | the joy You promised me? For You will keep Your Word You gave Your | Son in exile. I am sure my treasure waits for me, and I need but |
| W2:355.1 | forever. It is You I choose and my Identity along with You. Your | Son would be Himself and know You as his Father and Creator and his |
| W2:356.1 | Father, You promised You would never fail to answer any call Your | Son might make to You. It does not matter where he is, what seems to |
| W2:356.1 | to be his problem, nor what he believes he has become. He is Your | Son, and You will answer him. The miracle reflects Your Love, and |
| W2:356.1 | who is sinless cannot suffer pain. Your Name gives answer to Your | Son because to call Your Name is but to call his own. |
| W2:357.1 | and thus escape the prison house in which I think I live. Your holy | Son is pointed out to me, first in my brother, then in me. Your Voice |
| W2:357.1 | to hear Your Word and give as I receive. And as I look upon Your | Son today, I hear Your Voice instructing me to find the way to You as |
| W2:358.1 | let me not forget Your Love and care, keeping Your promise to Your | Son in my awareness always. Let me not forget myself is nothing, but |
| W2:360.1 | it is Your peace that I would give, receiving it of You. I am Your | Son, forever just as You created me, for the Great Rays remain |
| W2:360.1 | In holiness were we created, and in holiness do we remain. Your | Son is like to You in perfect sinlessness, and with this thought we |
| W2:FL.5 | not end this year without the gift our Father promised to His holy | Son. We are forgiven now. And we are saved from all the wrath we |
| W2:FL.5 | were mistaken. Nothing more than that. And is a father angry at his | son because he failed to understand the truth? |
| W2:FL.6 | His lessons through the Voice of His own Teacher. Would He hurt His | Son? Or would He rush to answer him and say, “This is My Son, and all |
| W2:FL.6 | He hurt His Son? Or would He rush to answer him and say, “This is My | Son, and all I have is his”? Be certain He will answer thus, for |
| W2:361.1 | and answer me because He speaks for God, my Father, and His holy | Son. |
| W2:E.6 | His answers, as we ask His Will in everything we do. He loves God's | Son as we would love him, and He teaches us how to behold him through |
| M:1.3 | of the course never changes. Its central theme is always, “God's | Son is guiltless, and in his innocence is his salvation.” It can be |
| M:2.2 | of Him. The instant the idea of separation entered the Mind of God's | Son, in that same instant was God's Answer given. In time this |
| M:3.1 | the relationship a holy relationship in which both can look upon the | Son of God as sinless. There is no one from whom a teacher of God |
| M:3.4 | of all relationships to become holy. God is not mistaken in His | Son. |
| M:4.12 | for the unchanging and unchangeable beyond appearances, and for the | Son of God and his Creator. How could they not succeed? They choose |
| M:4.15 | for they have understood their evil thoughts came neither from God's | Son nor his Creator. Thus did they join their thoughts with Him Who |
| M:4.19 | to keep for himself all things that are of God and therefore for His | Son. These are the things that belong to him. These he can give away |
| M:4.22 | It implies acceptance of the word of God and His definition of His | Son. It is to them that faithfulness in the true sense is always |
| M:4.23 | open-mindedness invites Him to come in. As condemnation judges the | Son of God as evil, so open-mindedness permits him to be judged by |
| M:4.25 | of God's teachers does not include those things which are the | Son of God's inheritance. Terms like love, sinlessness, perfection, |
| M:5.2 | Sickness is a method, conceived in madness, for placing God's | Son on his Father's throne. God is seen as outside, fierce and |
| M:5.2 | all power for Himself. Only by His death can He be conquered by His | Son. |
| M:5.3 | does healing stand for? It symbolizes the defeat of God's | Son and the triumph of his Father over him. It represents the |
| M:5.3 | him. It represents the ultimate defiance in a direct form which the | Son of God is forced to recognize. It stands for all that he would |
| M:5.9 | symbols of salvation. They ask the patient for forgiveness for God's | Son in his own name. They stand for the alternative. With God's Word |
| M:5.9 | they call to their brothers to turn away from death. Behold, you | Son of God, what life can offer you. Would you choose sickness in |
| M:5.10 | in this brother who would so deceive himself as to believe God's | Son can suffer. And they remind him that he has not made himself and |
| M:10.2 | “bad.” It is the only judgment there is, and it is only one: “God's | Son is guiltless, and sin does not exist.” |
| M:12.1 | This One, sanctified and redeemed, becomes the Self Who is the | Son of God. He who was always wholly spirit now no longer sees |
| M:12.2 | Thus does the | son of man become the Son of God. It is not really a change; it is a |
| M:12.2 | Thus does the son of man become the | Son of God. It is not really a change; it is a change of mind. |
| M:13.6 | sense that is true, for you hold dear the things that crucify God's | Son. And it is the course's aim to set him free. But do not be |
| M:13.8 | for He has need of teachers. What other way is there to save His | Son? |
| M:15.1 | lies across the world that everyone may hear this judgment of the | Son of God: |
| M:16.8 | good enough for God's teacher, because it is not enough for God's | Son. |
| M:17.2 | chosen for himself. And in this gift is his judgment upon the holy | Son of God. |
| M:17.7 | to kill. Here is salvation now. An angry Father pursues His guilty | Son. Kill or be killed, for here alone is choice. Beyond this there |
| M:18.2 | Through them, the Holy Spirit can now speak of the reality of the | Son of God. Now He can remind the world of sinlessness, the one |
| M:19.1 | only just interpretations and laying all injustices aside. If God's | Son were fairly judged, there would be no need for salvation. The |
| M:21.3 | it to him, as he requests. Herein lie hell and Heaven. The sleeping | Son of God has but this power left to him. It is enough. His words do |
| M:22.7 | to set limits upon Him, because it is not up to them to judge His | Son. And to judge His Son is to limit his Father. Both are equally |
| M:22.7 | Him, because it is not up to them to judge His Son. And to judge His | Son is to limit his Father. Both are equally meaningless. Yet this |
| M:22.7 | does he receive Atonement, for he withdraws his judgment from the | Son of God, accepting him as God created him. No longer does he stand |
| M:22.7 | it should be withheld. Now can he say with God, “This is my beloved | Son, created perfect and forever so.” |
| M:23.2 | may recur to others, but never to this one. He has become the risen | Son of God. He has overcome death, because he has accepted life. He |
| M:23.3 | Jesus, you are remembering God. The whole relationship of the | Son to the Father lies in him. His part in the Sonship is also yours, |
| M:23.3 | it is likely that he will fail to keep them. Can God fail His | Son? And can one who is one with God be unlike Him? Who transcends |
| M:26.1 | be reached directly, for there is no distance between Him and His | Son. His awareness is in everyone's memory, and His Word is written |
| M:27.3 | enough to show it cannot co-exist with God. It holds an image of the | Son of God in which he is “laid to rest” in devastation's arms, where |
| M:27.5 | The “reality” of death is firmly rooted in the belief that God's | Son is a body. And if God created bodies, death would indeed be real. |
| M:27.7 | what is the end of death? Nothing but this: the realization that the | Son of God is guiltless now and forever. Nothing but this. But do not |
| M:28.1 | other wishes, and all other concerns. It is the single desire of the | Son for the Father. |
| M:28.4 | time of everlasting things is now at hand. There is no death. The | Son of God is free. And in his freedom is the end of fear. No hidden |
| M:28.6 | is. And in His Final Judgment is restored the truth about the holy | Son of God. He is redeemed, for he has heard God's Word and |
| M:29.6 | him still. And how much more than this does your Father love His | Son? |
| M:29.7 | harm, your dreams of danger and selected “wrongs.” God knows but His | Son, and as he was created, so he is. In confidence I place you in |
| M:29.8 | the world stands silent in the grace you bring from Him. You are the | Son He loves, and it is given you to be the means through which His |

| Tx:4.100 | He does know. He knows it in His own Being and its experience of His | Son's experience. The constant going out of His love is blocked when |

song (38) | ||
| Tx:12.52 | as I am calling you to join with me. Every voice has a part in the | song of redemption, the hymn of gladness and thanksgiving for the |
| Tx:17.43 | of hate in praise of its maker, so is the holy relationship a happy | song of praise to the Redeemer of relationships. |
| Tx:17.52 | Throughout the Sonship is the | song of freedom heard in joyous echo of your choice. You have joined |
| Tx:20.12 | all the terror that kept it hidden. There is no fear in love. The | song of Easter is the glad refrain the Son of God was never |
| Tx:21.8 | forgotten; dim, perhaps, and yet not altogether unfamiliar, like a | song whose name is long forgotten, and the circumstances in which you |
| Tx:21.8 | in which you heard completely unremembered. Not the whole | song has stayed with you, but just a little wisp of melody, attached |
| Tx:21.8 | But you remember from just this little part how lovely was the | song, how wonderful the setting where you heard it, and how you loved |
| Tx:21.9 | is half so dear as this. Listen and see if you remember an ancient | song you knew so long ago and held more dear than any melody you |
| Tx:21.11 | which can show you this and not the body. You know the ancient | song and know it well. Nothing will ever be as dear to you as is this |
| Tx:21.12 | And now the blind can see, for that same | song they sing in honor of their Creator gives praise to them as |
| Tx:21.12 | The blindness which they made will not withstand the memory of this | song. And they will look upon the vision of the Son of God, |
| Tx:21.47 | it hears in terror, the other part hears as the sweetest music—the | song it longed to hear since first the ego came into your minds. The |
| Tx:21.47 | ego came into your minds. The ego's weakness is its strength. The | song of freedom, which sings the praises of another world, brings to |
| Tx:24.15 | loving praise of what you are, is all you listen to. And that vast | song of honor and of love for what you are seems silent and unheard |
| Tx:24.46 | offers to your Self. The sight of Christ is all there is to see. The | song of Christ is all there is to hear. The hand of Christ is all |
| Tx:26.4 | he witnesses to truth? He is invisible in such a world. Nor can his | song of union and of love be heard at all. Yet is it given him to |
| Tx:26.4 | at all. Yet is it given him to make the world recede before his | song and sight of him replace the body's eyes. |
| Tx:26.6 | His task of showing you that it has not been lost. Hear then the | song your brother sings to you. And let the world recede and take the |
| Tx:26.6 | offers on behalf of peace. But judge him not, for you will hear no | song of liberation for yourself nor see what it is given him to |
| Tx:26.27 | universe to touch the heart of all creation? What is Heaven but a | song of gratitude and love and praise by everything created to the |
| Tx:26.29 | truth, and you will join the lights of Heaven there and sing their | song of gratitude and praise. And as they come to you to be complete, |
| Tx:26.29 | you to be complete, so will you go with them. For no one hears the | song of Heaven and remains without a voice that adds its power to the |
| Tx:26.29 | of Heaven and remains without a voice that adds its power to the | song and makes it sweeter still. And each one joins the singing at |
| Tx:26.29 | to be its own. And what was tiny then has soared into a magnitude of | song in which the universe has joined with but a single voice. This |
| Tx:26.31 | confidence, holding each other's hand and keeping step to Heaven's | song, is difficult to do. But it is hard indeed to wander off, alone |
| Tx:26.34 | ago, for such a tiny interval of time that not one note in Heaven's | song was missed. |
| Tx:29.68 | began. Forgiveness, once complete, brings timelessness so close the | song of Heaven can be heard, not with the ears, but with the holiness |
| Tx:29.68 | abides forever deep within the Son of God. And when he hears this | song again, he knows he never heard it not. And where is time, when |
| Tx:31.95 | Will, so will they choose. And I give thanks for them. Salvation's | song will echo through the world with every choice they make. For we |
| Tx:31.96 | what my brothers are. And as each one elects to join with me, the | song of thanks from earth to Heaven grows from tiny scattered threads |
| W1:123.4 | thankful eyes, no longer looking downward to the dust. We sing the | song of thankfulness today in honor of the Self Which God has willed |
| W1:164.1 | yet He hears them faintly, for beyond them all He hears the | song of Heaven and the Voice of God more clear, more meaningful, more |
| W1:196.9 | Salvation's | song can certainly be heard in the idea we practice for today. If it |
| W1:198.6 | Heaven's love upon them. Those who hear His words have heard the | song of Heaven, for these are the words in which all will merge as |
| W2:WS.5 | salvation to the world, for it is here salvation was received. The | song of our rejoicing is the call to all the world that freedom is |
| W2:310.2 | this day together, you and I. And all the world joins with us in our | song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who gave salvation to us, and Who |
| M:4.16 | His way because God's Voice directs them in all things. Joy is their | song of thanks. And Christ looks down on them in thanks as well. His |
| M:28.4 | rise up from the dust and look upon our perfect sinlessness. The | song of Heaven sounds around the world, as it is lifted up and |

| Tx:5.20 | to learn. It is the final lesson that I learned, and God's | Sons are as equal as learners as they are as Souls. The Voice of the |
| Tx:5.20 | what God creates is eternal. The Holy Spirit will remain with the | Sons of God to bless their creations and keep them in the light of |

| Tx:6.9 | you are teaching persecution. This is not a lesson which the | Sons of God should want to teach if they are to realize their own |
| Tx:6.15 | assault would not be so extreme. I will with God that none of His | Sons should suffer. |
| Tx:6.16 | is the communication link between God the Father and His separated | Sons. If you will listen to His Voice, you will know that you cannot |

| Tx:6.24 | reject it. As a result, you will teach rejection. The power of the | Sons of God is operating all the time because they were created as |
| Tx:6.32 | God created His | Sons by extending His Thought and retaining the extensions of His |
| Tx:6.64 | in perfect equality. Only one equal gift can be offered to the equal | Sons of God, and that is full appreciation. Nothing more and nothing |

| Tx:7.76 | which God accords them always, because they are His beloved | Sons in whom He is well pleased. You cannot be apart from them, |
| Tx:7.80 | lonely without understanding this as God Himself is lonely when His | Sons do not know Him. The peace of God is understanding this. There |
| Tx:7.81 | will always be treasured by God, because they belong to His beloved | Sons who belong to Him. All power and glory are yours, because the |
| Tx:7.96 | You have not failed to add to the inheritance of the | Sons of God and thus have not failed to secure it for yourselves. If |

| Tx:8.31 | yours, because yours is as powerful as mine. If it were not so, the | Sons of God would be unequal. All things are possible through our |

| Tx:8.33 | to Him, it is the gift of freedom, which is His Will for all His | Sons. By offering freedom, you will be free. |
| Tx:8.34 | Freedom is the only gift you can offer to God's | Sons, being an acknowledgment of what they are and what He is. |

| Tx:8.50 | Whom God has joined cannot be separated, and God has joined all His | Sons with Himself. Can you be separated from your life and your being? |

| Tx:9.74 | do worship them. The idols are nothing, but their worshipers are the | Sons of God in sickness. |
| Tx:9.105 | because you believe that the sick images you perceive are the | Sons of God. |
| Tx:10.68 | There is no order of difficulty in miracles because all of God's | Sons are of equal value, and their equality is their oneness. The |
| Tx:10.83 | Believe that the truth is in me, for I know that it is in you. God's | Sons have nothing which they do not share. Ask for truth of any Son |
| Tx:12.15 | you did not. You would rather be slaves of the crucifixion than | Sons of God in redemption. For your individual death is more valued |
| Tx:13.30 | You cannot enter into real relationships with any of God's | Sons unless you love them all and equally. Love is not special. If |

| Tx:24.72 | And thus are two | sons made, and both appear to walk this earth without a meeting-place |
| Tx:25.59 | function that has been assigned to you in God's Own plan to show His | Sons that hell and Heaven are different, not the same. And that in |
| Tx:26.66 | each one of us can save us all. There is no difference among the | Sons of God. The unity that specialness denies will save them all, |
| Tx:29.60 | God has not many | sons, but only One. Who can have more, and who be given less? In |
| Tx:31.95 | Father, for these holy ones who are my brothers as they are Your | Sons. My faith in them is Yours. I am as sure that they will come to |
| W2:I.9 | more, and it will rise again. A moment more, and we who are God's | Sons are safely home, where He would have us be. |
| W2:247.2 | So would I look on everyone today. My brothers are Your | Sons. Your Fatherhood created them and gave them all to me as part of |
| W2:255.1 | wills for me, accepting it as mine and giving it to all my Father's | Sons, along with me. |
| W2:260.2 | indeed are we because our Source can know no sin. And we who are His | Sons are like each other and alike to Him. |
| W2:263.2 | and walk together to our Father's house as brothers and the holy | Sons of God. |
| W2:266.1 | Father, You gave me all Your | Sons to be my saviors and my counselors in sight—the bearers of |
| W2:272.2 | and linger in a dream, we turn aside and ask ourselves if we, the | Sons of God, could be content with dreams when Heaven can be chosen |
| W2:300.2 | We seek Your holy world today. For we, Your loving | Sons, have lost our way a while. But we have listened to Your Voice |

| W2:WICR.4 | We are creation—we the | Sons of God. We seem to be discrete and unaware of our eternal unity |
| W2:359.1 | misunderstood all things. But we have not made sinners of the holy | Sons of God. What You created sinless so abides forever and forever. |

| Tx:1.59 | becomes distorted. When this occurs, the whole family of God, or the | Sonship, is impaired in its relationships. Ultimately, every member |
| Tx:1.68 | Miracles are affirmations of | Sonship, which is a state of completion and abundance. Whatever is |
| Tx:1.80 | the other. My devotion to my brothers has placed me in charge of the | Sonship, which I can render complete only to the extent to which I |
| Tx:1.82 | the recognition of the true equality of all the members of the | Sonship appears to involve almost endless time. However, the sudden |
| Tx:1.88 | recognizes that he has everything, individual contributions to the | Sonship will no longer be necessary. When the Atonement has been |
| Tx:1.106 | the earth, your release is not complete. Complete restoration of the | Sonship is the only true goal of the miracle-minded. |
| Tx:2.21 | mentioned before, is “are of one mind or will.” When the will of the | Sonship and the Father are one, their perfect accord is Heaven. |

| Tx:2.102 | The | Sonship in its oneness does transcend the sum of its parts. However, |
| Tx:2.102 | conflict cannot ultimately be resolved until all the parts of the | Sonship have returned. Only then can the meaning of wholeness, in the |
| Tx:2.103 | Any part of the | Sonship can believe in error or incompleteness if he so elects. |
| Tx:4.86 | here because as you learn how much you are indebted to the whole | Sonship, which includes me, you come as close to knowledge as |
| Tx:4.91 | undertaken successfully by those who disengage themselves from the | Sonship because they are disengaging themselves from me. God will |
| Tx:5.2 | is why it makes no difference to what part or by what part of the | Sonship the healing is done. Every part benefits and benefits equally. |
| Tx:5.3 | or they you. The light is so strong that it radiates throughout the | Sonship and returns thanks to the Father for radiating His joy upon |
| Tx:5.5 | oneness and become glad. This gladness calls to every part of the | Sonship to rejoice with them and lets God Himself go out into them |
| Tx:5.13 | The Holy Spirit, the shared Inspiration of all the | Sonship, induces a kind of perception in which many elements are like |
| Tx:5.20 | integrity of the mind. When the Atonement is complete and the whole | Sonship is healed, there will be no call to return, but what God |
| Tx:5.28 | for God. Everyone will answer the Call of the Holy Spirit, or the | Sonship cannot be as one. What better vocation could there be for any |
| Tx:5.29 | As we share this goal we increase its power to attract the whole | Sonship and to bring it back into the Oneness in which it was |
| Tx:5.39 | is because you have no meaning apart from your rightful place in the | Sonship and the rightful place of the Sonship [is] God. This is your |
| Tx:5.39 | your rightful place in the Sonship and the rightful place of the | Sonship [is] God. This is your life, your eternity, and yourself. It |
| Tx:5.50 | in this world to listen to one voice. If you are part of God and the | Sonship is one, you cannot be limited to the “self” the ego sees. |
| Tx:5.50 | “self” the ego sees. Every loving thought held in any part of the | Sonship belongs to every part. It is shared because it is loving. |
| Tx:5.53 | awareness that to share them is to strengthen them. The union of the | Sonship is its protection. The ego cannot prevail against the Kingdom |
| Tx:5.53 | and is undone in the presence of the attraction of the parts of the | Sonship, which hear the call of the Holy Spirit to be as One. |
| Tx:5.57 | God's ideas withhold it from the Kingdom. The joint will of all the | Sonship is the only creator that can create like the Father, because |
| Tx:5.77 | their thoughts from the ability to produce fear anywhere in the | Sonship. “The wicked shall perish” is merely a statement of fact if |
| Tx:5.81 | Voice was in me as it is in you, speaking for patience towards the | Sonship in the name of its Creator. What you need to learn now is |
| Tx:6.5 | told you that the crucifixion was the last foolish journey that the | Sonship need take and that it should mean release from fear to anyone |
| Tx:6.16 | the reawakening of every Son of God is necessary to enable the | Sonship to know its wholeness. Only this is knowledge. |
| Tx:6.21 | Judas was my brother and a Son of God, as much a part of the | Sonship as myself. Was it likely that I would condemn him when I was |
| Tx:6.57 | extending outward, though not His completeness, is blocked when the | Sonship does not communicate with Him as one. So He thought, “My |

| Tx:6.92 | the learning itself must be incomplete. To teach the whole | Sonship without exception demonstrates that you perceive its |
| Tx:7.2 | are not yours. But yours are like His. He created the | Sonship, and you increase it. You have the power to add to the |
| Tx:7.36 | undo the belief in differences, being the only way of perceiving the | Sonship without this belief. This perception is therefore in accord |
| Tx:7.38 | fear. Love needs only this invitation. It comes freely to all the | Sonship, being what the Sonship is. By your awakening to it, you are |
| Tx:7.38 | this invitation. It comes freely to all the Sonship, being what the | Sonship is. By your awakening to it, you are merely forgetting what |

| Tx:7.43 | he is offering something to the Sonship, and the only thing the | Sonship can accept is healing. When the so-called “healing” works, |
| Tx:7.53 | This light will shine back upon you and on the whole | Sonship, because this is your proper gift to God. He will accept it |
| Tx:7.53 | is your proper gift to God. He will accept it and give it to the | Sonship, because it is acceptable to Him and therefore to His Sons. |
| Tx:7.53 | calls upon you to love God and His creations. You can appreciate the | Sonship only as one. This is part of the Law of Creation and |
| Tx:7.54 | Although you can love the | Sonship only as one, you can perceive it as fragmented. It is |
| Tx:7.58 | mind which made it knew itself. And if it recognized any part of the | Sonship, it would know itself. |
| Tx:7.69 | this means anything at all. Being a perfect accomplishment, the | Sonship can only accomplish perfectly, extending the joy in which it |
| Tx:7.70 | denial is as total as love. It is as impossible to deny part of the | Sonship as it is to love it in part. Nor is it possible to love it |
| Tx:7.73 | in anyone, or you have accepted it as you. All illusions about the | Sonship are dispelled together, as they were made together. Teach no |
| Tx:7.73 | as long as perception lasts. And perception will last until the | Sonship knows itself as whole. |
| Tx:7.88 | so that all their effects will vanish from your minds and from the | Sonship as a whole. |
| Tx:7.91 | wills to deprive Himself of His. Do not withhold your gifts to the | Sonship, or you withhold yourself from God. Selfishness is of the |
| Tx:7.92 | in its own, as it is included in God. The power of the whole | Sonship and of its Creator is therefore the Soul's own fullness, |
| Tx:7.95 | since every creation belongs to everyone, being created for the | Sonship as a whole. |

| Tx:7.112 | who created them with you. We said before that only the whole | Sonship is worthy to be co-creator with God, because only the whole |
| Tx:7.112 | Sonship is worthy to be co-creator with God, because only the whole | Sonship can create like Him. Whenever you heal a brother by |
| Tx:8.23 | you and your brothers from every imprisoning thought any part of the | Sonship has accepted. Wrong decisions have no power because they are |
| Tx:8.27 | in darkness until God's Will was done completely by any part of the | Sonship. When this was done, it was perfectly accomplished by all. |
| Tx:8.27 | accomplished? My mission was simply to unite the will of the | Sonship with the Will of the Father by being aware of the Father's |
| Tx:8.36 | is invincible, because it is undivided. The undivided will of the | Sonship is the perfect creator, being wholly in the likeness of God, |
| Tx:8.42 | We are the joint will of the | Sonship, whose wholeness is for all. We begin the journey back by |
| Tx:8.56 | which you give to the Holy Spirit to use on behalf of union of the | Sonship, you will not see anything physical except as what it is. Use |
| Tx:9.34 | God's light nor yours is dimmed because you do not see. Because the | Sonship must create as one, you remember creation whenever you |
| Tx:9.35 | your reality, as you were created witnesses to God's. Yet when the | Sonship comes together and accepts its oneness, it will be known by |
| Tx:9.75 | His power through you? Remember that it does not matter where in the | Sonship He is accepted. He is always accepted for all, and when your |
| Tx:9.75 | mind receives Him, the remembrance of Him awakens throughout the | Sonship. Heal your brothers simply by accepting God for them. |
| Tx:9.87 | The | Sonship cannot be perceived as partly sick, because to perceive it |
| Tx:9.87 | because to perceive it that way is not to perceive it at all. If the | Sonship is one, it is one in all respects. Oneness cannot be divided. |
| Tx:9.99 | you have not answered His. He calls to you from every part of the | Sonship because of His love for His Son. If you hear His message, He |
| Tx:9.104 | must learn to see him to learn of his reality. And as part of the | Sonship, that is how you must see yourself to learn of yours. |
| Tx:10.5 | learned your need of healing. Would you bring anything else to the | Sonship, recognizing your need of healing for yourself? For in this |
| Tx:10.17 | you perceive it, lies the denial of God's Fatherhood and your | Sonship. |
| Tx:10.30 | the Wholeness of his Father. In your mind, you can accept the whole | Sonship and bless it with the light your Father gave it. Then you |

| Tx:10.68 | God's Son is saved. Bring only this awareness to the | Sonship, and you will have a part in the redemption as valuable as |
| Tx:11.15 | that all power is of God. You can remember this for all the | Sonship. Do not allow your brother not to remember, for his |

| Tx:13.73 | or isolated in its effects. Every decision is made for the whole | Sonship, directed in and out and influencing a constellation larger |
| Tx:15.46 | on your own terms. We said before that to limit love to part of the | Sonship is to bring guilt into your relationships and thus make them |

| Tx:16.9 | What you give through Him is for the whole | Sonship, not for part of it. Leave Him His function, for He will |
| Tx:16.10 | not do them. Why should you worry how the miracle extends to all the | Sonship when you do not understand the miracle itself? One attribute |
| Tx:16.13 | and share one idea equally, the first link in the awareness of the | Sonship as one has been made. When you have made this joining as the |
| Tx:16.23 | learned what you have taught show you that you do not perceive the | Sonship as one? And does it not also show you that you do not regard |
| Tx:16.44 | ego would have you see Him, and Him alone, as guilty, leaving the | Sonship open to attack and unprotected from it. The special love |
| Tx:17.52 | Throughout the | Sonship is the song of freedom heard in joyous echo of your choice. |
| Tx:17.52 | it has come to join you together in a relationship in which all the | Sonship is together blessed. |
| Tx:17.56 | because the goal is sure. And you will share the gladness of the | Sonship that it is so. As you begin to recognize and accept the gifts |
| Tx:17.56 | And learning this, you will have also learned how to release all the | Sonship and offer it in gladness and thanksgiving to Him Who gave you |
| Tx:18.11 | Heaven is restored to all the | Sonship through your relationship, for in it lies the Sonship, whole |
| Tx:18.11 | to all the Sonship through your relationship, for in it lies the | Sonship, whole and beautiful, safe in your love. Heaven has entered |
| Tx:18.13 | which has no limits and reaches out to every broken fragment of the | Sonship with healing and uniting comfort. This is offered you in your |

| W2:258.1 | to shine in unawareness while the toys and trinkets of the world are | sought instead? God is our only goal, our only Love. We have no aim |

| Tx:4.2 | You can speak from the | Soul or from the ego, precisely as you choose. If you speak from the |
| Tx:4.2 | Soul or from the ego, precisely as you choose. If you speak from the | Soul, you have chosen “to be still and know that I am God.” These |

| Tx:4.5 | buying and selling implies precisely the kind of exchange that the | Soul cannot understand at all because its supply is always abundant |
| Tx:4.6 | in terms. This is because the mind is split between the ego and the | Soul, so that whatever the ego makes is incomplete and contradictory. |
| Tx:4.8 | You believe that if you allow no change to enter into your ego, your | Soul will find peace. This profound confusion is possible only if one |
| Tx:4.8 | thought system can stand on two foundations. Nothing can reach the | Soul from the ego, and nothing from the Soul can strengthen the ego |
| Tx:4.8 | Nothing can reach the Soul from the ego, and nothing from the | Soul can strengthen the ego or reduce the conflict within it. The ego |

| Tx:4.15 | unchanged beyond the reach of your ego but within easy reach of your | Soul. When you are afraid, be still and know that God is real and you |
| Tx:4.17 | The word “inevitable” is fearful to the ego but joyous to the | Soul. God is inevitable, and you cannot avoid Him any more than He |
| Tx:4.19 | the salvation of both. Humility is a lesson for the ego, not for the | Soul. The Soul is beyond humility because it recognizes its radiance |
| Tx:4.19 | of both. Humility is a lesson for the ego, not for the Soul. The | Soul is beyond humility because it recognizes its radiance and gladly |

| Tx:4.20 | I will substitute for your ego if you wish but never for your | Soul. A father can safely leave a child with an elder brother who has |
| Tx:4.21 | I need devoted teachers who share my aim of healing the mind. The | Soul is far beyond the need of your protection or mine. Remember this: |
| Tx:4.34 | The | Soul in its knowledge is unaware of the ego. It does not attack it; |
| Tx:4.34 | conceive of it at all. While the ego is equally unaware of the | Soul, it does perceive itself as rejected by “something” which is |
| Tx:4.35 | that point in time. The religiously ego-oriented believe that the | Soul existed before and will continue to exist afterwards, after a |
| Tx:4.35 | after a temporary lapse in ego life. Some actually believe that the | Soul will be punished for this lapse, even though in reality it could |

| Tx:4.42 | You too have a kingdom which your | Soul created. It has not ceased to create because your ego has set |
| Tx:4.42 | creations are no more fatherless than you are. Your ego and your | Soul will never be co-creators, but your Soul and your Creator will |
| Tx:4.42 | you are. Your ego and your Soul will never be co-creators, but your | Soul and your Creator will always be. Be confident that your |
| Tx:4.48 | It should be apparent to you by now why the ego regards the | Soul as its “enemy.” The ego arose from the separation, and its |
| Tx:4.48 | on your continuing belief in the separation. Having reduced the | Soul impulses to the unconscious, the ego has to offer you some sort |
| Tx:4.48 | because it is its own. Against this sense of temporary existence the | Soul offers you the knowledge of permanence and unshakable being. No |
| Tx:4.54 | “to have” and “to be” are different, but they are identical to the | Soul. The Soul knows that you both have everything and are |
| Tx:4.54 | and “to be” are different, but they are identical to the Soul. The | Soul knows that you both have everything and are everything. Any |
| Tx:4.57 | this need not be. In every case you have thought wrongly about some | Soul that God created and are perceiving images your ego makes in a |
| Tx:4.88 | it or controlling it or punishing it. Remember that the ego and the | Soul do not know each other. The separated mind cannot maintain the |
| Tx:4.93 | conditioning you to associate misery with the ego and joy with the | Soul. You have conditioned yourselves the other way around. A far |
| Tx:4.96 | ways to all stimuli which it perceives as related. In contrast the | Soul reacts in the same way to everything it knows is true and does |
| Tx:4.98 | mind is in communication with everything that is real, including the | Soul. To whatever extent you permit this state to be curtailed, you |
| Tx:5.5 | mind cannot have what it does not choose to be. Remember that the | Soul knows no difference between “being” and “having.” The higher |
| Tx:5.5 | and “having.” The higher mind thinks according to the laws which the | Soul obeys and therefore honors only the laws of God. To Him, getting |
| Tx:5.5 | getting is meaningless and giving is all. Having everything, the | Soul holds everything by giving it and thus creates as the Father |
| Tx:5.25 | “What profiteth it a man if he gain the whole world and lose his own | Soul?” That means that if he listens to the wrong voice, he has lost |
| Tx:5.25 | that if he listens to the wrong voice, he has lost sight of his | Soul. He cannot lose it, but he can not know it. It is therefore lost |
| Tx:5.37 | mind is not understandable to another. So it is with the ego and the | Soul, with time and eternity. Eternity is an idea of God, so the Soul |
| Tx:5.37 | the Soul, with time and eternity. Eternity is an idea of God, so the | Soul understands it perfectly. Time is a belief of the ego, so the |
| Tx:5.38 | between the interpretations of the ego and the knowledge of the | Soul. His ability to deal with symbols enables Him to work against |
| Tx:5.94 | joyous it is because you have reacted with a lack of love to some | Soul which God created. Perceiving this as “sin,” you become |
| Tx:7.91 | from God. Selfishness is of the ego, but self-fullness is of the | Soul, because that is how God created it. The Holy Spirit is the part |
| Tx:7.91 | Spirit is the part of the mind that lies between the ego and the | Soul, mediating between them always in favor of the Soul. To the ego, |
| Tx:7.91 | the ego and the Soul, mediating between them always in favor of the | Soul. To the ego, this is partiality, and it therefore responds as if |
| Tx:7.91 | responds as if it were the part that is being sided against. To the | Soul, this is truth, because it knows its fullness and cannot |
| Tx:7.92 | The | Soul knows that the consciousness of all its brothers is included in |
| Tx:7.93 | The | Soul yearns to share its being as its Creator did. Created by |
| Tx:7.93 | no more interfere with their reality than your unawareness of your | Soul can interfere with its being. |
| Tx:7.94 | inevitable. That is why there is perfect peace in the Kingdom. Every | Soul is fulfilling its function, and only complete fulfillment is |
| Tx:8.45 | those which are created like His? Your creations love you as your | Soul loves your Father for the gift of creation. There is no other |
| Tx:8.61 | a means by which the part of the mind you have separated from your | Soul can reach beyond its distortions and return to the Soul. The |
| Tx:8.61 | from your Soul can reach beyond its distortions and return to the | Soul. The ego's temple thus becomes the temple of the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:9.33 | we are part of you, everything we do belongs to you as well. Every | Soul God created is part of you and shares His glory with you. His |
| Tx:9.79 | idolaters in the Kingdom, but there is great appreciation for every | Soul which God created because of the calm knowledge that each one is |
| Tx:10.31 | forget that the Sonship is your salvation, for the Sonship is your | Soul. As God's creation, it is yours, and belonging to you, it is |
| Tx:10.31 | God's creation, it is yours, and belonging to you, it is His. Your | Soul does not need salvation, but your mind needs to learn what |
| Tx:10.31 | but you are saved for glory. Glory is your inheritance, given your | Soul by its Creator that you might extend it. Yet if you hate part of |
| Tx:10.31 | Creator that you might extend it. Yet if you hate part of your own | Soul, all your understanding is lost because you are looking on what |
| Tx:10.33 | The peace of your | Soul lies in its limitlessness. Limit the peace you share, and your |
| Tx:10.33 | lies in its limitlessness. Limit the peace you share, and your own | Soul must be unknown to you. Every altar to God is part of your Soul |
| Tx:10.33 | own Soul must be unknown to you. Every altar to God is part of your | Soul because the light He created is one with Him. Would you cut off |
| Tx:11.53 | is trying to teach you how to gain the whole world and lose your own | Soul. The Holy Spirit teaches that you cannot lose your Soul and |
| Tx:11.53 | your own Soul. The Holy Spirit teaches that you cannot lose your | Soul and there is no gain in the world, for of itself it profits |
| Tx:11.53 | denying yours and gives you nothing in return. You cannot sell your | Soul, but you can sell your awareness of it. You cannot perceive your |

| Tx:4.33 | that it is completely on its own. Its ceaseless attempts to gain the | Soul's acknowledgment and thus to establish its own existence are |

| Tx:2.38 | The Atonement actually began long before the crucifixion. Many | Souls offered their efforts on behalf of the separated ones, but they |
| Tx:2.51 | entirely worthy of receiving perfection. God is lonely without His | Souls, and they are lonely without Him. Men must learn to perceive |
| Tx:2.101 | It should especially be noted that God has only one Son. If all the | Souls God created are His Sons, then every Soul must be an integral |
| Tx:3.48 | God and the | Souls He created remain in surety, and therefore know that no |

| Tx:3.67 | His Children, but only because He knows that it makes them unhappy. | Souls were given their true Authorship, but men preferred to be |
| Tx:3.73 | as a force in combat with God, battling Him for possession of the | Souls He created. He deceives by lies and builds kingdoms of his own |
| Tx:3.73 | than repels them, and they are seen as willing to “sell” him their | Souls in return for gifts they recognize are of no real worth. |
| Tx:3.76 | for self-creating. This is the only sense in which God and His | Souls are not co-creators. The belief that they are is implicit in |
| Tx:3.77 | you are images of your own creation. Your minds are split with your | Souls on this point, and there is no resolution while you believe the |
| Tx:3.79 | since then, but nothing else has happened. That is why your | Souls are still in peace, even though your minds are in conflict. You |
| Tx:4.12 | because of the nature of yours. Egos can clash in any situation, but | Souls cannot clash at all. If you perceive a teacher as merely a |

| Tx:4.49 | conceive of the real relationship which exists between God and His | Souls because of the hatred you have for the self you have made. You |
| Tx:5.20 | I learned, and God's Sons are as equal as learners as they are as | Souls. The Voice of the Holy Spirit is the call to Atonement or the |
sound (28) | ||
| Tx:5.19 | to joy. This call is so strong that the ego always dissolves at its | sound. That is why you can choose to listen to two voices within you. |
| Tx:9.16 | can account for the reactions, whether they place the ego in a very | sound position as the guide for yours. It seems absurd to have to |
| Tx:9.29 | that the laws you are obeying work. “The good is what works” is a | sound, though insufficient, statement. Only the good can work. |
| Tx:12.76 | so was it the Father's gift to me, given me through His Spirit. The | sound of it will banish sorrow from the Mind of God's most holy Son, |
| Tx:14.53 | though careful to conceal this fact behind a lot of words which | sound impressive but which lack any consistent sense when they are |
| Tx:18.60 | or anticipated. The “something” can be anything and anywhere—a | sound, a sight, a thought, a memory, and even a general idea without |
| Tx:19.55 | table covered with a spotless cloth, set in a quiet garden where no | sound but singing and a softly joyous whispering is ever heard. This |
| Tx:22.13 | language the body does not speak. Nor could it be a fearful sight or | sound that drew them gently into one. Rather, in each the other saw a |
| Tx:24.17 | truth: you will no longer see what never was, nor hear what makes no | sound. Is it a sacrifice to give up nothing and to receive the love |

| Tx:27.59 | worldly pleasure, and the throes of death itself are but a single | sound—a call for healing and a plaintive cry for help within a |

| Tx:29.31 | echoes of eternity are heard. There is a resting place so still no | sound except a hymn to Heaven rises up to gladden God the Father and |

| Tx:10.43 | system without fear, for it cannot have any effects if its | source is not true. Fear becomes more obviously inappropriate if one |
| Tx:10.44 | and the way to undo its results is merely to recognize that their | source is not natural, being out of accord with your true nature. We |

| Tx:11.29 | this. Even if he is fully aware of anxiety, he does not perceive its | source as his own ego identification, and he always tries to handle |
| Tx:11.34 | in your own mind and nowhere else, you will at last have placed its | source, and where it began it must end. For in this same place also |
| Tx:11.37 | inevitable because the ego is part of your mind, and because of its | source, the ego is not wholly split off, or it could not be believed |
| Tx:12.5 | guilt blindly and indiscriminately, but you have not uncovered its | source. For the ego does want to kill you, and if you identify with |
| Tx:13.20 | You are accustomed to the notion that the mind can see the | source of pain where it is not. The doubtful service of displacement |
| Tx:13.20 | it is not. The doubtful service of displacement is to hide the real | source of your guilt and keep from your awareness the full perception |
| Tx:13.20 | insane. Displacement always is maintained by the illusion that the | source, from which attention is diverted, must be true and must be |
| Tx:13.20 | underneath awareness, provided that they are not the deeper | source to which they bear no real relationship at all. |
| Tx:13.22 | understand what loving is. Their main concern is to perceive the | source of guilt outside themselves, beyond their own control. |

| Tx:13.79 | that the “sin” of self-replacement on the throne of God is not a | source of guilt. What cannot happen can have no effects to fear. Be |

| Tx:15.2 | One | source of perceived discouragement from which you suffer is your |
| Tx:15.18 | attempt to support it and uphold its weakness, do not perceive the | Source of strength. In the holy instant, you will unchain all your |
| Tx:15.46 | to save you. How, then, could guilt not enter? For separation is the | source of guilt, and to appeal to it for salvation is to believe you |
| Tx:15.64 | is gone and with it goes the whole basis for exclusion. Without its | source, exclusion vanishes. And this permits your Source and that of |
| Tx:15.64 | Without its source, exclusion vanishes. And this permits your | Source and that of all your brothers to replace it in your awareness. |
| Tx:15.83 | to free you of what He does not understand. And because of the | Source of the attempt, it will succeed. The Holy Spirit asks you to |
| Tx:17.20 | and beauty. That is why Atonement centers on the past, which is the | source of separation, and where it must be undone. For separation |
| Tx:17.20 | it was made. The ego seeks to “resolve” its problems, not at their | source, but where they were not made. And thus it seeks to guarantee |
| Tx:17.21 | His resolutions complete and perfect, and so He seeks and finds the | source of problems where it is and there undoes it. And with each |

| Tx:18.63 | You still have too much faith in the body as a | source of strength. What plans do you make that do not involve its |
| Tx:18.84 | And you have also been told that error must be corrected at its | source. Therefore, it is the tiny part of yourself, the little |
| Tx:18.94 | end. Forgiveness does make lovely, but it does not create. It is the | source of healing, but it is the messenger of love and not its |
| Tx:18.94 | the source of healing, but it is the messenger of love and not its | Source. Here you are led that God Himself can take the final step |
| Tx:18.94 | take, transports you to something completely different. Here is the | Source of light—nothing perceived, forgiven, nor transformed, but |
| Tx:19.8 | it must be healed. The result of an idea is never separate from its | source. The idea of separation produced the body and remains |
| Tx:19.16 | way except by the mind that thought it. For it remains joined to its | source, which is its jailor or its liberator, according to which it |
| Tx:19.33 | still because you do not realize that its foundation has gone. Its | source has been removed, and so it can be cherished but a little |
| Tx:19.57 | yours; no better means for communication of salvation, but not its | Source. No one can die for anyone, and death does not atone for sin. |
| Tx:19.61 | is the focus of the perception of Atonement as murder. Here is the | source of the idea that love is fear. The Holy Spirit's messengers |
| Tx:19.79 | death, exchanging it for life. We know that an idea leaves not its | source. And death is the result of the thought we call the ego as |
| Tx:19.88 | When anything seems to you to be a | source of fear, when any situation strikes you with terror and makes |
| Tx:19.88 | Remember then that neither sign nor symbol should be confused with | source, for they must stand for something other than themselves. |
| Tx:19.88 | it not. Remember the holy Presence of the One given to you to be the | Source of judgment. Give it to Him to judge for you, and say: |
| Tx:19.90 | simply, you would remember your Father. The Creator of life, the | Source of everything that lives, the Father of the universe and of |
| Tx:20.28 | the Holy Spirit sees them not and gives no power to their seeming | source. Thus would He keep you free of them. Being without illusion |
| Tx:20.29 | where its results are alien and can no more enter than can their | source. And therein lies your need to see your brother sinless. In |
| Tx:20.30 | for those who follow them to suffer the results of any other | source. |
| Tx:20.58 | the means to meet the Holy Spirit's goal will come from the same | Source as does His purpose. Being so simple and direct, this course |
| Tx:20.72 | that could save you, you will never see. Your holy relationship, the | source of your salvation, will be deprived of meaning, and its most |
| Tx:21.26 | make you what it wills, you are confusing Son and Father, effect and | Source. |
| Tx:21.27 | them, the Son does not delude himself that he is independent of his | Source. His union with It is the Source of his creating. Apart from |
| Tx:21.27 | that he is independent of his Source. His union with It is the | Source of his creating. Apart from this he has no power to create, |
| Tx:21.28 | of release has come to you. All its effects are gone because its | source has been uncovered. It is its seeming independence of its |
| Tx:21.28 | its source has been uncovered. It is its seeming independence of its | source that kept you prisoner. This is the same delusion that you are |
| Tx:21.28 | prisoner. This is the same delusion that you are independent of the | Source by which you were created and have never left. |
| Tx:21.30 | change, you have accepted the idea of making room for truth. The | source of sin is gone. You may imagine that you still experience its |
| Tx:21.35 | free, removing hatred by removing fear, not as a symptom, but at its | source. |
| Tx:21.41 | to your desire that it be there to see. This merely seems to be the | source of fear. |
| Tx:21.54 | for your salvation is complete. And it must be complete because its | Source knows not of incompletion. Where would the answer be but in |
| Tx:21.54 | knows not of incompletion. Where would the answer be but in the | Source? And where are you but there, where this same answer is? Your |
| Tx:21.54 | same answer is? Your Identity, as much a true effect of this same | Source as is the answer, must therefore be together and the same. |
| Tx:22.20 | eternal. Yet reason looks on this another way, for reason sees the | source of an idea as what will make it true or false. This must be so |
| Tx:22.20 | will make it true or false. This must be so if the idea is like its | source. Therefore, says reason, if escape from guilt was given to the |
| Tx:22.59 | the power that God has given Him to make each little gift of love a | source of healing for everyone. Each little gift you offer to the |
| Tx:23.41 | recognize, then it must follow that you do not always recognize the | source of pain. Attack in any form is equally destructive. Its |
| Tx:24.31 | Forgive the great Creator of the universe, the | Source of life, of love and holiness, the perfect Father of a perfect |
| Tx:24.40 | in what it sees, although it is not true. Yet what you seek for is a | source of joy as you conceive it. What you wish is true for you. Nor |
| Tx:26.27 | a song of gratitude and love and praise by everything created to the | Source of its creation? The holiest of altars is set where once sin |
| Tx:26.49 | is real and dwells where all reality must be. Ideas leave not their | source, and their effects but seem to be apart from them. Ideas are |
| Tx:26.49 | not outside at all but an effect of what is in and has not left its | source. |
| Tx:26.59 | belief arose. Here is the firm conviction that ideas can leave their | source made real and meaningful. And from this error does the world |
| Tx:26.59 | without understanding why. Effects are seen as separate from their | source and seem to be beyond you to control or to prevent. What is |
| Tx:26.60 | of Him, and this must still be true because ideas leave not their | source. Such is creation's law—that each idea the mind conceives |
| Tx:26.60 | make it be what it is not. And to believe ideas can leave their | source is to invite illusions to be true, without success. For never |
| Tx:26.70 | come to you. In this form is the error still obscured that is the | source of fear. Salvation would wipe out the space you see between |
| Tx:27.62 | it is he who bears the suffering. And he cannot escape because its | source is seen outside himself. |
| Tx:28.61 | not sick if you deny yourself your wholeness and your health, the | Source of help, the Call to healing, and the Call to heal? Your |
| Tx:28.66 | gap can interpose itself between the safety of this shelter and its | Source? From here the body can be seen as what it is and neither less |
| Tx:29.54 | Yet it is still a thought and cannot leave the mind that is its | source. Nor is its form apart from the idea it represents. All forms |
| Tx:29.55 | something living to a sign of death. Its form is nowhere, for its | source abides within your mind, where God abideth not. Where is this |
| Tx:30.40 | is the purpose of an idol—that you will not look beyond it to the | source of the belief that you are incomplete. Only if you had sinned |
| Tx:31.7 | outcome in a different world. And each world follows surely from its | source. The certain outcome of the lesson that God's Son is guilty is |
| Tx:31.30 | that thinks it is a sin has but one purpose—that the body be the | source of sin and keep it in the prison-house it chose and guard and |
| Tx:31.41 | despair. Yet has He never left His Thoughts to die, without their | Source forever in themselves. He has not left His Thoughts! He could |
| Tx:31.87 | and gently says, “My brother, choose again.” He would not leave one | source of pain unhealed nor any image left to veil the truth. [He |

| W1:5.10 | Apply the idea for today to each of them, using the name of both the | source of the upset as you perceive it and of the feelings as you |
| W1:6.1 | upset (anger, fear, worry, depression, and so on) and the perceived | source very specifically for any application of the idea. For example: |
| W1:30.4 | it does not depend on the body's eyes at all. The mind is its only | source. |
| W1:35.3 | presents a very different view of yourself. By establishing your | Source, it establishes your Identity, and it describes you as you |
| W1:41.3 | You can never be deprived of your perfect holiness because its | Source goes with you wherever you go. You can never suffer because |
| W1:41.3 | goes with you wherever you go. You can never suffer because the | Source of all joy goes with you wherever you go. You can never be |
| W1:41.3 | goes with you wherever you go. You can never be alone because the | Source of all life goes with you wherever you go. Nothing can destroy |
| W1:43.6 | God is my | Source. I cannot see this desk apart from Him. God is my Source. I |
| W1:43.6 | God is my Source. I cannot see this desk apart from Him. God is my | Source. I cannot see that picture apart from Him. |
| W1:43.13 | God is my | Source. I cannot see you apart from Him. |
| W1:43.16 | God is my | Source. I cannot see this apart from Him. |
| W1:45.2 | the Mind of God leave your mind, because thoughts do not leave their | source. Therefore your thoughts are in the Mind of God, as you are. |
| W1:47.4 | Today we will try to reach past your own weakness to the | Source of real strength. Four five-minute practice periods are |
| W1:53.5 | can a meaningless world exist if God did not create it? He is the | Source of all meaning, and everything that is real is in His Mind. It |
| W1:59.4 | [43] God is my | Source. I cannot see apart from Him. I can see what God wants me to |
| W1:68.2 | does to your awareness. It seems to split you off from your | Source and make you unlike Him. It makes you believe that He is like |
| W1:70.1 | seems to come from anywhere except from you. So, too, does the | source of guilt. You see neither guilt nor salvation as in your own |
| W1:70.4 | but hardly His. He wants you to be healed, and so He has kept the | Source of healing where the need for healing lies. You have tried to |
| W1:71.2 | circumstance or event were changed, you would be saved. Thus the | source of salvation is constantly perceived as outside yourself. |
| W1:71.4 | if you are to be saved. According to this insane plan, any perceived | source of salvation is acceptable, provided that it will not work. |
| W1:71.15 | be no better way to spend a half-minute or less than to remember the | Source of your salvation and to see it where it is. |
| W1:73.5 | it. Your picture of the world can only mirror what is within. The | source of neither light nor darkness can be found without. Grievances |
| W1:83.5 | my function is my happiness because both come from the same | Source. And I must learn to recognize what makes me happy if I would |
| W1:85.5 | I will recognize where my salvation is. It is in me because its | Source is there. It has not left its Source, and so it cannot have |
| W1:85.5 | is. It is in me because its Source is there. It has not left its | Source, and so it cannot have left my mind. I will not look for it |
| W1:85.7 | my salvation. I will not let this interfere with my awareness of the | Source of my salvation. This has no power to remove salvation from me. |
| W1:92.5 | should be light. Strength comes from truth and shines with light its | Source has given it; weakness reflects the darkness of its maker. It |
| W1:96.6 | Yet mind apart from Spirit cannot think. It has denied its | Source of strength and sees itself as helpless, limited, and weak. |
| W1:99.5 | the Mind of God and in your own. It is apart from time in that its | Source is timeless. Yet it operates in time because of your belief |
| W1:99.6 | because it lays no faith in what is not created by the only | Source it knows. This is the thought whose function is to save by |
| W1:105.3 | your view of giving, so you can receive. For giving has become a | source of fear, and so you would avoid the only means by which you |
| W1:106.2 | deceived by voices of the dead which tell you they have found the | source of life and offer it to you for your belief. Attend them not, |
| W1:130.6 | It is all a piece because it stems from one emotion and reflects its | source in everything you see. |
| W1:131.11 | the place of thoughts which have no meaning, no effect, and neither | source nor substance in the truth. |
| W1:132.1 | be swayed by questioning his thoughts' effects. It is but when their | source is raised to question that the hope of freedom comes to him at |
| W1:132.2 | to change his mind, and all his thoughts change with it. Now the | source of thought has shifted, for to change your mind means you have |
| W1:132.2 | has shifted, for to change your mind means you have changed the | source of all ideas you think or ever thought or yet will think. |
| W1:132.6 | Ideas leave not their | source. This central theme is often stated in the text and must be |
| W1:132.11 | is no world apart from your ideas because ideas leave not their | source, and you maintain the world within your mind in thought. |
| W1:135.10 | and fragile, and apart from other minds and separate from its | Source. |
| W1:136.19 | Now is the body healed because the | source of sickness has been opened to relief. And you will recognize |
| W1:138.10 | as valuable, the other as a wholly worthless thing, a but imagined | source of guilt and pain? Who hesitates to make a choice like this? |
| W1:140.8 | Today we seek to change our minds about the | source of sickness, for we seek a cure for all illusions, not another |
| W1:140.8 | not another shift among them. We will try today to find the | source of healing, which is in our minds because our Father placed it |
| W1:140.9 | appears to us as sick. We go beyond appearances today and reach the | source of healing from which nothing is exempt. We will succeed to |
| W1:156.1 | basic thought so often mentioned in the text—ideas leave not their | source. If this be true, how can you be apart from God? How could you |
| W1:156.1 | from God? How could you walk the world alone and separate from your | Source? |
| W1:158.1 | because you were created out of Love. Nor have you left your | Source, remaining as you were created. This was given you as |
| W1:159.4 | vision is the miracle in which all miracles are born. It is their | source, remaining with each miracle you give and yet remaining yours. |
| W1:159.9 | back into the world. Their roots remain. They do not leave their | source, but carry its beneficence with them and turn the world into a |

| W1:167.3 | is where it must be changed if change occurs. Ideas leave not their | source. The emphasis this course has placed on that idea is due to |
| W1:167.4 | you can never change. It is the fixed belief ideas can leave their | source and take on qualities the source does not contain, becoming |
| W1:167.4 | fixed belief ideas can leave their source and take on qualities the | source does not contain, becoming different from their own origin, |
| W1:167.5 | Death cannot come from life. Ideas remain united to their | source. They can extend all that their source contains. In that they |
| W1:167.5 | Ideas remain united to their source. They can extend all that their | source contains. In that they can go far beyond themselves. But they |
| W1:167.6 | a body. What is alien to the mind does not exist because it has no | source. For mind creates all things that are and cannot give them |
| W1:167.9 | a foreign state it cannot enter, or a false condition not within its | Source, it merely seems to go to sleep a while. It dreams of time— |
| W1:167.11 | in a unity of life that cannot separate in death and leave the | Source of Life from where it came. |
| W1:167.12 | We share our life because we have one | Source, a Source from Which perfection comes to us, remaining always |
| W1:167.12 | We share our life because we have one Source, a | Source from Which perfection comes to us, remaining always in the |
| W1:167.12 | No vision now is needed. For the wakened mind is one that knows its | Source, its Self, its holiness. |
| W1:169.5 | that it is now aware of something not itself. It has united with its | Source, and like its Source Itself, it merely is. |
| W1:169.5 | of something not itself. It has united with its Source, and like its | Source Itself, it merely is. |
| W1:170.5 | which the idea stands. First, it is obvious ideas must leave their | source. For it is you who make attack and must have first conceived |
| W1:R5.15 | their sound. The sound grows dim and disappears as we approach the | Source of meaning. It is here that we find rest. |
| W1:177.3 | [164] Now are we one with Him Who is our | Source. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:184.11 | He does not forget Creation has One Name, One Meaning, and a single | Source Which unifies all things within Itself. Use all the names the |
| W1:186.11 | plan may be impossible, but God's can never fail because He is its | Source. |
| W1:187.10 | stand together as one Son of God. Not separate from Him Who is our | Source; not distant from one brother who is part of our One Self |
| W1:188.1 | own. It is the only thing you bring with you from Him Who is your | Source. It shines in you because it lights your home and leads you |
| W1:188.2 | vision starts. There is no sight, be it of dreams or from a truer | source, that is not but the shadow of the seen through inward vision. |
| W1:188.2 | inward vision. There perception starts, and there it ends. It has no | source but this. |
| W1:188.6 | with Him. They recognize their home. And they point surely to their | Source where God the Father and the Son are one. |
| W1:190.5 | your holy will as theirs. And what was seen as fearful now becomes a | source of innocence and holiness. |
| W1:192.5 | terror then? What fears could still assail those who have lost the | source of all attack, the core of anguish, and the seat of fear? |
| W1:193.4 | love, so that the fear is gone. And now guilt cannot enter, for its | source has been excluded as the purpose of the lesson has been |
| W1:195.10 | be found. For gratitude is but an aspect of the love which is the | Source of all creation. God gives thanks to you, His Son, for being |
| W1:195.10 | to you, His Son, for being what you are—His own completion and the | source of love, along with Him. Your gratitude to Him is one with His |

| Tx:16.18 | not interpret against God's Love, for you have many witnesses which | speak of it so clearly that only the blind and deaf could fail to see |
| Tx:17.15 | enable you to think guiltily of another and not harm yourself. They | speak so clearly for the separation that no one not obsessed with |
| Tx:17.16 | The shadow figures always | speak for vengeance, and all relationships into which they enter are |
| Tx:18.87 | messages relay to you is quite external. There are no messages which | speak of what lies underneath, for it is not the body that could |

| Tx:24.71 | His purpose, so does the body testify to the idea that made it and | speak for its reality and truth. |
| Tx:25.73 | see his worth at all. What honest witnesses could they call forth to | speak on his behalf? And who would come to plead for him and not |
| Tx:27.7 | called forth to be believed and lend conviction to the system they | speak for and represent. And each has many voices, speaking to your |
| Tx:27.17 | him mute testimony of his innocence. It is this testimony which can | speak with power greater than a thousand tongues. For here is his |
| Tx:27.44 | what he denies himself? The Holy Spirit speaks to you. He does not | speak to someone else. Yet by your listening, His Voice extends |
| Tx:27.57 | body. Neither does He harken to the witnesses by other names which | speak in other ways for its reality. He knows it is not real. For |
| Tx:27.67 | own escape. Forget not that the witness to the world of evil cannot | speak except for what has seen a need for evil in the world. And this |
| Tx:29.64 | their toys the power to move about and talk and think and feel and | speak for them. Yet everything their toys appear to do is in the |
| Tx:30.35 | the world, and thus the rule of fear established there. Now hear God | speak to you through Him Who is His Voice and yours as well, |
| Tx:30.88 | so that they mean the same to all of us. Our common language lets us | speak to all our brothers and to understand with them forgiveness has |

| W1:152.15 | this same invitation to your Self. God's Voice will answer, for He | speaks for you and for your Father. He will substitute the peace of |
| W1:154.4 | Son that sets apart salvation from the world. It is this Voice which | speaks of laws the world does not obey, which promises salvation from |
| W1:154.10 | today. We will not seek to keep our minds apart from Him Who | speaks for us, for it is but our voice we hear as we attend Him. He |
| W1:156.8 | ended doubting and established peace. Today let doubting cease. God | speaks for you in answering your question with these words: |

| W1:I2.2 | peace that comes as you give up your tight control of what you see | speaks for itself. Your motivation will be so intensified that words |

| W1:193.18 | To all that | speaks of terror, answer thus: |
| W1:R6.10 | we give these times of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, | speaks of peace, and gives our thoughts whatever meaning they may |

| W2:275.1 | Let us today attend the Voice of God, Which | speaks an ancient lesson, no more true today than any other day. Yet |
| W2:315.1 | A brother smiles upon another, and my heart is gladdened. Someone | speaks a word of gratitude or mercy, and my mind perceives this gift |

| Tx:15.47 | of the Atonement in which salvation lies. How can you decide that | special aspects of the Sonship can give you more than others? The |
| Tx:15.48 | Because of guilt, all | special relationships have some elements of fear in them. And this is |
| Tx:15.48 | function as Interpreter of what you have made, the Holy Spirit uses | special relationships, which you have chosen to support the ego, as a |
| Tx:15.49 | The Holy Spirit knows no one is | special. Yet He also perceives that you have made special |
| Tx:15.49 | knows no one is special. Yet He also perceives that you have made | special relationships, which He would purify and not let you destroy. |
| Tx:15.52 | Everyone on earth has formed | special relationships, and although this is not so in Heaven, the |
| Tx:15.52 | bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the holy instant no one is | special, for your personal needs intrude on no one to make them |
| Tx:15.65 | Beyond the poor attraction of the | special love relationship and always obscured by it is the powerful |
| Tx:15.65 | the ego enters. For every relationship on which the ego embarks is | special. The ego establishes relationships only to get something. And |
| Tx:15.68 | you. And thus it embarks on an endless, unrewarding chain of | special relationships, forged out of anger and dedicated to but one |
| Tx:15.74 | Whenever you are angry, you can be sure that you have formed a | special relationship which the ego has “blessed,” for anger is its |
| Tx:15.74 | guilty, and this attempt is the only basis which the ego accepts for | special relationships. Guilt is the only need the ego has, and as |
| Tx:15.80 | Hear Him gladly and learn of Him that you have need of no | special relationships at all. You but seek in them what you have |
| Tx:15.98 | destroyed, you or another? You seek to answer this question in your | special relationships, in which you are both destroyer and destroyed |
| Tx:15.101 | very fearful to you. And you would bargain with them for a few | special relationships in which you think you see some scraps of |
| Tx:16.1 | is the ego's interpretation of empathy and is always used to form a | special relationship in which the suffering is shared. The capacity |
| Tx:16.30 | Be not afraid to look upon the | special hate relationship, for freedom lies in looking at it. It |
| Tx:16.30 | impossible not to know the meaning of love except for this. For the | special love relationship, in which the meaning of love is lost, is |
| Tx:16.30 | your open eyes as you look on this. You cannot limit hate. The | special love relationship will not offset it but will merely drive it |
| Tx:16.32 | The | special love relationship is an attempt to limit the destructive |
| Tx:16.32 | attempting to build barricades against it and keep within them. The | special love relationship is not perceived as a value in itself, but |
| Tx:16.32 | a place of safety from which hatred is split off and kept apart. The | special love partner is acceptable only as long as he serves this |
| Tx:16.36 | must be recognized if it is to be distinguished from illusion: The | special love relationship is an attempt [to bring love into |
| Tx:16.36 | it real in fear. In fundamental violation of love's condition, the | special love relationship would accomplish the impossible. How but in |
| Tx:16.37 | for your own completion, and it is they who render you complete. The | special love relationship is but a shabby substitute for what makes |
| Tx:16.38 | your completion, for you will be wholly in God, willing for nothing | special but only to be wholly like unto Him, completing Him by your |
| Tx:16.42 | If | special relationships of any kind would hinder God's completion, can |
| Tx:16.43 | In looking at the | special relationship, it is necessary first to realize that it |
| Tx:16.44 | leaving the Sonship open to attack and unprotected from it. The | special love relationship is the ego's chief weapon for keeping you |
| Tx:16.44 | how you value it and why, you will realize what it must be. The | special love relationship is the ego's most boasted gift, and one |
| Tx:16.46 | It is in the | special relationship, born of the hidden wish for special love from |
| Tx:16.46 | It is in the special relationship, born of the hidden wish for | special love from God, that the ego's hatred triumphs. For the |
| Tx:16.46 | for special love from God, that the ego's hatred triumphs. For the | special relationship is the renunciation of the love of God and the |
| Tx:16.48 | The | special relationship is a strange and unnatural ego device for |
| Tx:16.48 | of both and to the inability to perceive either one as it is. The | special relationship is the triumph of this confusion. It is a kind |
| Tx:16.49 | of all is the concept of the self which the ego fosters in the | special relationship. This “self” seeks the relationship to make |
| Tx:16.49 | the relationship to make itself complete. Yet when it finds the | special relationship in which it thinks it can accomplish this, it |
| Tx:16.50 | The “better” self the ego seeks is always one that is more | special. And whoever seems to possess a special self is “loved” for |
| Tx:16.50 | is always one that is more special. And whoever seems to possess a | special self is “loved” for what can be taken from him. Where both |
| Tx:16.50 | “loved” for what can be taken from him. Where both partners see this | special self in each other, the ego sees “a union made in Heaven.” |
| Tx:16.51 | faith in littleness. The conviction of littleness lies in every | special relationship, for only the deprived could value specialness. |
| Tx:16.51 | an act of love would make love hateful. And the real purpose of the | special relationship, in strict accordance with the ego's goals, is |
| Tx:16.52 | If you perceived the | special relationship as a triumph over God, would you want it? Let us |
| Tx:16.52 | die so you can live. And it is this theme which is acted out in the | special relationship. Through the death of your self, you think you |
| Tx:16.53 | leaving it helpless. See how exactly is this ritual enacted in the | special relationship. An altar is erected in between two separate |
| Tx:16.54 | Whenever any form of | special relationship tempts you to seek for love in ritual, remember |
| Tx:16.54 | in ritual, remember love is content and not form of any kind. The | special relationship is a ritual of form, aimed at the raising of the |
| Tx:16.54 | There is no meaning in the form, and there will never be. The | special relationship must be recognized for what it is—a senseless |
| Tx:16.55 | the wholeness of God have any influence at all upon it. See in the | special relationship nothing more than a meaningless attempt to raise |
| Tx:16.59 | The search for the | special relationship is the sign that you equate yourself with the |
| Tx:16.59 | sign that you equate yourself with the ego and not with God. For the | special relationship has value only to the ego. To the ego unless a |
| Tx:16.59 | has value only to the ego. To the ego unless a relationship has | special value, it has no meaning, and it perceives all love as |
| Tx:16.59 | has special value, it has no meaning, and it perceives all love as | special. Yet this cannot be natural, for it is unlike the |
| Tx:16.60 | in protecting you from the attraction of guilt, the real lure in the | special relationship. You do not recognize that this is its real |
| Tx:16.60 | taught you that freedom lies in it. Yet the closer you look at the | special relationship, the more apparent it becomes that it must |
| Tx:16.61 | The | special relationship is totally without meaning without a body. And |
| Tx:16.61 | you must also value the body. And what you value, you will keep. The | special relationship is a device for limiting your self to a body and |
| Tx:16.61 | The Great Rays would establish the total lack of value of the | special relationship if they were seen. For in seeing them, the body |
| Tx:16.62 | made in perfect faith, the universe would enter into it. Yet the | special relationship which the ego seeks does not include even one |
| Tx:16.64 | your world together. This frame of reference is built around the | special relationship. Without this illusion, there can be no meaning |
| Tx:16.65 | in this: You could no longer find even the illusion of love in any | special relationship here. For you are no longer wholly insane, and |
| Tx:16.66 | Nothing you seek to strengthen in the | special relationship is really part of you. And you cannot keep part |
| Tx:16.69 | only this little help of you. Whenever your thoughts wander to a | special relationship which still attracts you, enter with Him into a |
| Tx:16.70 | It is impossible to let the past go without relinquishing the | special relationship. For the special relationship is an attempt to |
| Tx:16.70 | the past go without relinquishing the special relationship. For the | special relationship is an attempt to reenact the past and change it. |
| Tx:16.70 | perceived injustices, and deprivations all enter into the | special relationship, which becomes a way in which you seek to |
| Tx:16.70 | your wounded self-esteem. What basis would you have for choosing a | special partner without the past? Every such choice is made because |
| Tx:16.71 | The | special relationship takes vengeance on the past. By seeking to |
| Tx:16.71 | its preoccupation with the past and its total commitment to it. No | special relationship is experienced in the present. Shades of the |
| Tx:16.72 | it and seeks retribution of you. The fantasies it brings to the | special relationships it chooses in which to act out its hate are |
| Tx:16.73 | In the | special relationship, you are allowing your destruction to be. That |
| Tx:16.73 | goal as its ally. The past is gone; seek not to preserve it in the | special relationship, which binds you to it and would teach you that |
| Tx:16.74 | In the | special relationship, it does not seem to be an acting out of |
| Tx:16.74 | one thing which the ego never allows to reach awareness is that the | special relationship is the acting out of vengeance on yourself. But |
| Tx:16.74 | of vengeance on yourself. But what else could it be? In seeking the | special relationship, you look not for glory in yourself. You have |
| Tx:17.28 | said repeatedly that the Holy Spirit would not deprive you of your | special relationships but would transform them. And by that all that |
| Tx:17.28 | God's purpose, rather than aiming to make a substitute for it. Every | special relationship which you have made is a substitute for God's |
| Tx:17.29 | to you, as it does constantly, you answer with a substitute. Every | special relationship which you have ever undertaken has as its |
| Tx:17.29 | completely that you will not hear the call of truth. In a sense the | special relationship was the ego's answer to the creation of the Holy |
| Tx:17.31 | And its “protection” is part of it, as insane as the whole. The | special relationship, which is its chief defense, must therefore be |
| Tx:17.32 | little difficulty now in realizing that the thought system which the | special relationship protects is but a system of delusions. You |
| Tx:17.32 | at least in general terms, that the ego is insane. Yet the | special relationship still seems to you somehow to be “different.” |
| Tx:17.34 | The | special relationship has the most imposing and deceptive frame of all |
| Tx:17.74 | The holy instant is nothing more than a | special case or an extreme example of what every situation is meant |
| Tx:18.1 | is to choose between, renouncing one in favor of the other. For this | special purpose, one is judged more valuable and the other is |
| Tx:18.3 | stems. No one is seen complete. The body is emphasized, with | special emphasis on certain parts, and used as the standard for |
| Tx:18.3 | for either acceptance or rejection of suitability for acting out a | special form of fear. |
| Tx:18.4 | whole world rests upon it. Everything you see reflects it, and every | special relationship which you have ever made is part of it. |
| Tx:18.19 | and insane idea that you can change it. In your waking dreams, the | special relationship [has a special place. It is the means by which |
| Tx:18.19 | change it. In your waking dreams, the special relationship [has a | special place. It is the means by which you try to make your sleeping |
| Tx:18.19 | your sleeping dreams come true. From this you do not awaken. The | special relationship] is your determination to keep your hold on |
| Tx:18.20 | changed to happy dreams. That is what the Holy Spirit does in your | special relationship. He does not destroy it nor snatch it away from |
| Tx:18.20 | use it differently, as a help to make His purpose real to you.] Your | special relationship will remain, not as a source of pain and guilt, |
| Tx:18.21 | Your | special relationship will be a means for undoing guilt in everyone |
| Tx:18.23 | truth, and it has come because you have been willing to let your | special relationship meet its conditions. In your relationship, the |
| Tx:18.45 | a dream. All that remains of dreams within it is that it is still a | special relationship. Yet it is very useful to the Holy Spirit, Who |
| Tx:18.45 | relationship. Yet it is very useful to the Holy Spirit, Who has a | special function here. It will become the happy dream through which |
| Tx:18.58 | liberation far exceeds the dream of freedom sometimes experienced in | special relationships. It is a sense of actual escape from |
| Tx:18.68 | Time has been saved for you because you are together. This is the | special means this course is using to save you time. You are not |
| Tx:18.82 | Be sure of this—love has entered your | special relationship and entered fully at your weak request. You do |
| Tx:19.21 | is its armor, its protection, and the fundamental purpose of the | special relationship in its interpretation. |
| Tx:19.77 | To you in whose | special relationship the Holy Spirit entered, it is given to release |
| Tx:20.32 | who walks this earth in seeming solitude is a savior given, whose | special function here is to release him and so to free himself. In |
| Tx:20.33 | goes with them. Each holy relationship must enter here to learn its | special function in the Holy Spirit's plan, now that it shares His |
| Tx:21.29 | All | special relationships have sin as their goal. For they are bargains |
| Tx:22.32 | regardless of their form, can be corrected. Sin is but error in a | special form the ego venerates. It would preserve all errors and make |
| Tx:24.5 | who could hate someone whose Self is his and whom He knows? Only the | special could have enemies, for they are different and not the same. |
| Tx:24.6 | serves as grounds from which attack on those who seem “beneath” the | special one is “natural” and “just.” The special ones feel weak and |
| Tx:24.6 | who seem “beneath” the special one is “natural” and “just.” The | special ones feel weak and frail because of differences, for what |
| Tx:24.6 | feel weak and frail because of differences, for what would make them | special is their enemy. Yet they protect its enmity and call it |
| Tx:24.10 | not share with you. For your relationship has been made clean of | special goals. And would you now defeat the goal of holiness that |
| Tx:24.10 | the goal of holiness that Heaven gave it? What perspective can the | special have that does not change with every seeming blow, each |
| Tx:24.11 | Those who are | special must defend illusions against the truth. For what is |
| Tx:24.15 | You are not | special. If you think you are and would defend your specialness |
| Tx:24.16 | speak a different language and they fall on different ears. To every | special one a different message, and one with different meaning, is |
| Tx:24.16 | is the truth. Yet how can truth be different to each one? The | special messages the special hear convince them they are different |
| Tx:24.16 | Yet how can truth be different to each one? The special messages the | special hear convince them they are different and apart—each in his |
| Tx:24.16 | hear convince them they are different and apart—each in his | special sins and “safe” from love, which does not see his specialness |
| Tx:24.21 | as you for his. You are alike to God as God is to Himself. He is not | special, for He would not keep one part of what He is unto Himself, |
| Tx:24.21 | but kept for Him alone. And it is this you fear, for if He is not | special, then He willed His Son be like Him, and your brother is like |
| Tx:24.21 | He willed His Son be like Him, and your brother is like you. Not | special, but possessed of everything including you. |
| Tx:24.24 | as the prison-house which keeps His Son from Him. For it demands a | special place God cannot enter and a hiding-place where none is |
| Tx:24.24 | you closed upon yourself, to rule in madness and in loneliness your | special kingdom, apart from God, away from truth and from salvation. |
| Tx:24.32 | The | special ones are all asleep, surrounded by a world of loveliness they |
| Tx:25.8 | the other part, the tiny mad desire to be separate, different, and | special, to the Christ, to make the oneness clear to what is really |
| Tx:25.46 | use of what you made, to heal instead of harm. To each He gives a | special function in salvation he alone can fill—a part for only |
| Tx:25.46 | —a part for only him. Nor is the plan complete until he finds his | special function and fulfills the part assigned to him to make |
| Tx:25.47 | do one perfect thing and make one perfect choice. And by this act of | special faithfulness to one perceived as other than himself, he |
| Tx:25.48 | is allotted him, for on his part does all the plan depend. He has a | special part in time, for so he chose, and choosing it, he made it |
| Tx:25.48 | his salvation from the very instant that the choice was made. His | special sin was made his special grace. His special hate became his |
| Tx:25.48 | very instant that the choice was made. His special sin was made his | special grace. His special hate became his special love. |
| Tx:25.48 | the choice was made. His special sin was made his special grace. His | special hate became his special love. |
| Tx:25.48 | special sin was made his special grace. His special hate became his | special love. |
| Tx:25.49 | The Holy Spirit needs your | special function that His may be fulfilled. Think not you lack a |
| Tx:25.49 | special function that His may be fulfilled. Think not you lack a | special value here. You wanted it, and it is given you. All that you |
| Tx:25.49 | your specialness appear to be attack. In light, you see it as your | special function in the plan to save the Son of God from all attack |
| Tx:25.56 | Your | special function is the special form in which the fact that God is |
| Tx:25.56 | Your special function is the | special form in which the fact that God is not insane appears most |
| Tx:25.56 | to you. The content is the same. The form is suited to your | special needs and to the special time and place in which you think |
| Tx:25.56 | is the same. The form is suited to your special needs and to the | special time and place in which you think you find yourself and where |
| Tx:25.56 | which makes it most acceptable to those who are insane requires | special choice. Nor can this choice be made by the insane, whose |
| Tx:25.58 | nor overlook nor fail completely to perceive at all. To each his | special function is designed to be perceived as possible and more and |
| Tx:25.58 | being sane. Nor is he left without escape from madness, for he has a | special part in everyone's escape. He can no more be left outside |
| Tx:25.58 | part in everyone's escape. He can no more be left outside without a | special function in the hope of peace than could the Father overlook |
| Tx:25.61 | Holy Spirit gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your | special function has a part. For here your special function is made |
| Tx:25.61 | to the plan in which your special function has a part. For here your | special function is made whole because it shares the function of the |
| Tx:25.72 | as well that you cannot accept it for yourself. It is His | special function to hold out to you the gifts the innocent deserve. |
| Tx:25.74 | that one, so justice may return to love and there be satisfied. Each | special function He allots is but for this—that each one learn that |
| Tx:25.75 | Self, so great and holy that He could not doubt His innocence. Your | special function is a call to Him that He may smile on you whose |
| Tx:25.75 | He shares. His understanding will be yours. And so the Holy Spirit's | special function has been fulfilled. God's Son has found a witness |
| Tx:25.76 | you cannot, not because you are a miserable sinner too. How can the | special really understand that justice is the same for everyone? To |
| Tx:25.77 | justice Heaven knows, and all the Holy Spirit brings to earth. Your | special function shows you nothing else but perfect justice can |
| Tx:25.83 | justice to the wholly innocent? A miracle is justice. It is not a | special gift to some to be withheld from others as less worthy, more |
| Tx:25.84 | the Holy Spirit's gift, were given specially to an elect and | special group and kept apart from others as less deserving, then is |
| Tx:26.5 | the world that gives it sense and makes it meaningful. Without your | special function has this world no meaning for you. Yet it can become |
| Tx:26.9 | him within the rotting prison where he sees himself. It is your | special function to ensure the door be opened that he may come forth |
| Tx:26.9 | gift of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the Holy Spirit's | special function but to release the holy Son of God from the |
| Tx:26.10 | the problem lasts. It serves no purpose to attempt to solve it in a | special form. It will recur and then recur again and yet again until |
| Tx:26.15 | to be preserved from sacrifice entirely. Consider once again your | special function. One is given you to see in him his perfect |
| Tx:26.16 | to be forever undone and unremembered. What seemed once to be a | special problem, a mistake without a remedy, or an affliction without |
| Tx:26.17 | it. Nothing He loves but must be sinless and beyond attack. Your | special function opens wide the door beyond which is the memory of |
| Tx:26.24 | Is not this like your | special function, where the separation is undone by change of purpose |
| Tx:27.78 | more senseless things that it can call its own. It looks about for | special bodies which can share its dream. Sometimes it dreams it is a |
| Tx:29.59 | reality does not contain. Each worshiper of idols harbors hope his | special deities will give him more than other men possess. It must be |
| Tx:30.40 | completion. Wholeness has no form because it is unlimited. To seek a | special person or a thing to add to you to make yourself complete can |
| Tx:30.74 | forgiveness. There would be an error that is more than a mistake—a | special form of error which remains unchangeable, eternal, and beyond |

| W1:R3.1 | 20 ideas each day until we have reviewed them all. We will observe a | special format for these practice periods, which you are urged to |
| W1:124.8 | first attempt at an extended period for which we give no rules nor | special words to guide your meditation. We will trust God's Voice to |

| W1:131.18 | Remember often that today should be a time of | special gladness, and refrain from dismal thoughts and meaningless |
| W1:135.28 | and tempt you to engage in weaving plans, remind yourself this is a | special day for learning, and acknowledge it with this: |
| W1:R4.12 | close as we began, repeating first the thought that made the day a | special time of blessing and of happiness for us and through our |

| W1:R6.6 | We will attempt to get beyond all words and | special forms of practicing for this review. For we attempt this time |
| W1:R6.10 | the day, and let it take the place of what you thought. Beyond such | special applications of each day's idea, we will add but few formal |
| W2:I.11 | words we still retain. From time to time, instructions on a theme of | special relevance will intersperse our daily lessons and the periods |
| W2:I.11 | of wordless, deep experience which should come afterwards. These | special thoughts should be reviewed each day, each one of them to be |

| Tx:24.5 | as a hidden belief, to be defended though unrecognized, is faith in | specialness. This takes many forms but always clashes with the |
| Tx:24.6 | condemns, “above” it, sinless by comparison with it. And thus does | specialness become a means and end at once. For specialness not only |
| Tx:24.6 | it. And thus does specialness become a means and end at once. For | specialness not only sets apart but serves as grounds from which |
| Tx:24.7 | Specialness is the great dictator of the wrong decisions. Here is the | |
| Tx:24.7 | is. And here is what must make the body dear and worth preserving. | Specialness must be defended. Illusions can attack it, and they do. |
| Tx:24.7 | it, and they do. For what your brother must become to keep your | specialness is an illusion. He who is “worse” than you must be |
| Tx:24.7 | illusion. He who is “worse” than you must be attacked so that your | specialness can live on his defeat. For specialness is triumph, and |

| Tx:24.8 | his attainment of it were perceived as yours? You are his enemy in | specialness; his friend in a shared purpose. Specialness can never |
| Tx:24.8 | You are his enemy in specialness; his friend in a shared purpose. | Specialness can never share, for it depends on goals that you alone |
| Tx:24.9 | Could you attack each other if you chose to see no | specialness of any kind between you? Look fairly at whatever makes |
| Tx:24.9 | that you are better off apart. Is it not always your belief your | specialness is limited by your relationship? And is not this the |
| Tx:24.10 | fear of God and of each other comes from each unrecognized belief in | specialness. For each demands the other bow to it against his will. |
| Tx:24.11 | who are special must defend illusions against the truth. For what is | specialness but an attack upon the Will of God? You love your brother |
| Tx:24.12 | Comparison must be an ego device, for love makes none. | Specialness always makes comparisons. It is established by a lack |
| Tx:24.12 | savior, had you not chosen to make of him a tiny measure of your | specialness instead. Against the littleness you see in him, you stand |
| Tx:24.13 | Pursuit of | specialness is always at the cost of peace. Who can attack his savior |
| Tx:24.13 | in salvation. Its pursuit will bring you joy. But the pursuit of | specialness must bring you pain. Here is a goal that would defeat |
| Tx:24.13 | defeat salvation and thus run counter to the Will of God. To value | specialness is to esteem an alien will to which illusions of yourself |
| Tx:24.14 | Specialness is the idea of sin made real. Sin is impossible even to | |
| Tx:24.14 | the Oneness Which created them as one with Him. They chose their | specialness instead of Heaven and instead of peace and wrapped it |
| Tx:24.15 | You are not special. If you think you are and would defend your | specialness against the truth of what you really are, how can you |
| Tx:24.15 | answer that the Holy Spirit gives can reach you, when it is your | specialness to which you listen and which asks and answers? Its tiny |
| Tx:24.16 | You can defend your | specialness, but never will you hear the Voice for God beside it. |
| Tx:24.16 | in his special sins and “safe” from love, which does not see his | specialness at all. Christ's vision is their “enemy,” for it sees not |
| Tx:24.16 | sees not what they would look upon, and it would show them that the | specialness they think they see is an illusion. What would they see |
| Tx:24.17 | to him as he is to his Father. And all the world he made and all his | specialness and all the sins he held in its defense against himself |
| Tx:24.18 | You who have chained your savior to your | specialness and given it his place, remember this: He has not lost |
| Tx:24.18 | the key to Heaven in his hand held out to you. Let not the dream of | specialness remain between you. What is one is joined in truth. |
| Tx:24.19 | when you have looked on him as on a friend. He is the enemy of | specialness but only friend to what is real in you. Not one attack |
| Tx:24.19 | it is as great as yours to have it. Let him forgive you all your | specialness and make you whole in mind and one with him. He waits for |
| Tx:24.19 | It is not God Who has condemned His Son. But only you, to save his | specialness and kill his Self. |
| Tx:24.20 | vestige of the fear of God will melt away in love. Your brother's | specialness and yours are enemies and bound in hate to kill each |
| Tx:24.21 | Here is your savior from your | specialness. He is in need of your acceptance of himself as part of |
| Tx:24.22 | He gave Himself. What is the same as God is one with Him. And only | specialness could make the truth of God and you as one seem anything |
| Tx:24.23 | Specialness is the seal of treachery upon the gift of love. Whatever | |
| Tx:24.24 | The hope of | specialness makes it seem possible God made the body as the |
| Tx:24.25 | you travel now, yet it is but illusion of despair. The death of | specialness is not your death but your awaking into life eternal. You |
| Tx:24.26 | Forgiveness is the end of | specialness. Only illusions can be forgiven, and then they disappear. |
| Tx:24.27 | Whatever form of | specialness you cherish, you have made sin. Inviolate it stands, |
| Tx:24.28 | frail. Illusions leave it perfectly unmoved [and undisturbed]. But | specialness is not the truth in you. It can be thrown off balance by |
| Tx:24.29 | has no meaning? No, His Son is safe, resting on Him. It is your | specialness that is attacked by everything that walks and breathes or |
| Tx:24.29 | Will forever. Nor is it possible the two can ever be the same while | specialness stands like a flaming sword of death between them and |
| Tx:24.30 | for you and what you will. They are the same, for neither one wills | specialness. How could they will the death of love itself? Yet they |
| Tx:24.31 | the perfect Father of a perfect Son, for your illusions of your | specialness. Here is the hell you chose to be your home. He chose not |
| Tx:24.31 | in perfect safety and without the heat and malice of one thought of | specialness to mar your rest. Forgive the Holy One the specialness He |
| Tx:24.31 | thought of specialness to mar your rest. Forgive the Holy One the | specialness He could not give and which you made instead. |
| Tx:24.32 | dream of death. Yet they hear nothing. They are lost in dreams of | specialness. They hate the call that would awaken them, and they |
| Tx:24.33 | The slaves of | specialness will yet be free. Such is the Will of God and of His Son. |
| Tx:24.33 | done. They seek your love that you may love yourself. Love not your | specialness instead of them. The print of nails are on your hands as |
| Tx:24.34 | Specialness is a lack of trust in anyone except yourself. Faith is | |
| Tx:24.35 | What could the purpose of the body be but | specialness? And it is this that makes it frail and helpless in its |
| Tx:24.36 | oft repeated but is difficult to grasp as yet. To minds intent on | specialness, it is impossible. Yet to those who wish to heal and not |
| Tx:24.36 | purpose hurts the mind as one. Nothing could make less sense to | specialness. Nothing could make more sense to miracles. For miracles |
| Tx:24.37 | This shift in purpose does “endanger” | specialness, but only in the sense that all illusions are |
| Tx:24.37 | Offered to them, no gifts can be returned. What you have given | specialness has left you bankrupt and your treasure house barren and |
| Tx:24.38 | whether it is your wish that you might see your brother sinless. To | specialness the answer must be “no.” A sinless brother is its enemy, |
| Tx:24.38 | If he is sinful, then is your reality not real but just a dream of | specialness which lasts an instant, crumbling into dust. |
| Tx:24.39 | your brother and have rejoiced at what you thought was there. Your | specialness seemed safe because of it. And thus you saved what you |
| Tx:24.39 | you instead. So are you bound with him, for you are one. And so is | specialness his “enemy” and yours as well. |
| Tx:24.40 | sees because He knows that it is one with Him and with His Father. | Specialness, too, takes joy in what it sees, although it is not true. |
| Tx:24.41 | There is no dream of | specialness—however hidden or disguised the form; however lovely it |
| Tx:24.43 | Yet let your | specialness direct his way, and you will follow. And both will walk |
| Tx:24.43 | the other to a nameless precipice and hurl him over it. For what can | specialness delight in but to kill? What does it seek for but the |
| Tx:24.46 | yours to look upon with Him and share His joy. His perfect lack of | specialness He offers you that you may save all living things from |
| Tx:24.47 | You who would be content with | specialness and seek salvation in a war with love, consider this: the |
| Tx:24.53 | this world. See in his freedom yours, for such it is. Let not his | specialness obscure the truth in him, for not one law of death you |
| Tx:24.54 | and you along with him. Let not your eyes be blinded by the veil of | specialness that hides the face of Christ from him, and you as well. |
| Tx:24.56 | laid on both of you. The Christ in you beholds his holiness. Your | specialness looks on his body and beholds him not. |
| Tx:24.58 | save from pain and give you happiness. And never doubt but that your | specialness will disappear before the Will of God, Who loves each |
| Tx:24.59 | Specialness is the function which you gave yourself. It stands for | |
| Tx:24.59 | to cease. And all this grim determination was for this—you wanted | specialness to be the truth. |
| Tx:24.61 | be sure you understand what made this judgment. Here is the voice of | specialness heard clearly, judging against the Christ and setting |
| Tx:24.62 | How bitterly does everyone tied to this world defend the | specialness he wants to be the truth! His wish is law unto him, and |
| Tx:24.62 | to be the truth! His wish is law unto him, and he obeys. Nothing his | specialness demands does he withhold. Nothing it needs does he deny |
| Tx:24.62 | effort is too great, no cost too much, no price too dear to save his | specialness from the least slight, the tiniest attack, the whispered |
| Tx:24.63 | seeing it in him, returns to you. All of the tribute you have given | specialness belongs to him and thus returns to you. All of the love |
| Tx:24.63 | powerful conviction this is you belong to him. Nothing you gave to | specialness but is his due. And nothing due him is not due to you. |
| Tx:24.64 | How can you know your worth while | specialness claims you instead? How can you fail to know it is in his |
| Tx:24.64 | can you fail to know it is in his holiness? Seek not to make your | specialness the truth, for if it were, you would be lost indeed. Be |
| Tx:24.65 | harm. Save it for show, as bait to catch another fish, to house your | specialness in better style or weave a frame of loveliness around |
| Tx:24.71 | brand it sinful, and you hate its acts, judging it evil. Yet your | specialness whispers, “Here is my own beloved son, in whom I am well |
| Tx:24.72 | of truth. Yet can perception serve another goal. It is not bound to | specialness but by your choice. And it is given you to make a |
| Tx:25.2 | is and walks with him within his holiness, as plain to see as is his | specialness set forth within his body. |
| Tx:25.9 | Holy Spirit serves Christ's purpose in your mind, so that the aim of | specialness can be corrected where the error lies. Because His |
| Tx:25.25 | is a perfect means to serve the goal for which it is perceived. For | specialness it is the perfect frame to set it off—the perfect |
| Tx:25.27 | the sinlessness that shines unchanged beyond the pitiful attempts of | specialness to put it out of mind where it must be and light the body |
| Tx:25.46 | Such is the Holy Spirit's kind perception of | specialness—His use of what you made, to heal instead of harm. To |
| Tx:25.47 | in time. It is the means the Holy Spirit uses to translate | specialness from sin into salvation. Forgiveness is for all. But when |
| Tx:25.48 | did in making it. He has the means for either, as he always did. The | specialness he chose to hurt himself did God appoint to be the means |
| Tx:25.49 | on his behalf and not against himself. Only in darkness does your | specialness appear to be attack. In light, you see it as your special |
| Tx:25.67 | to share the Holy Spirit's justice with a mind that can conceive of | specialness at all. Yet how could He be just if He condemns a sinner |
| Tx:25.74 | As | specialness cares not who pays the cost of sin, so it be paid, the |
| Tx:25.76 | Without impartiality there is no justice. How can | specialness be just? Judge not because you cannot, not because you |
| Tx:25.83 | who can be separate from salvation if its purpose is the end of | specialness? Where is salvation's justice if some errors are |
| Tx:25.84 | and kept apart from others as less deserving, then is He ally to | specialness. What He cannot perceive He bears no witness to. And |
| Tx:26.24 | where the separation is undone by change of purpose in what once was | specialness and now is union? All illusions are but one. And in the |
| Tx:26.66 | us all. There is no difference among the Sons of God. The unity that | specialness denies will save them all, for what is one can have no |
| Tx:26.66 | specialness denies will save them all, for what is one can have no | specialness. And everything belongs to each of them. No wishes lie |

| W1:I.3 | place each time and, if possible, in every situation in which you | spend any long period of time. The purpose is to train the mind to |
| W1:42.8 | let the thoughts come. If you find this difficult, it is better to | spend the practice period alternating between slow repetitions of the |
| W1:45.6 | by repeating the idea to yourself, closing your eyes as you do so. | Spend a fairly short period in thinking a few relevant thoughts of |
| W1:46.3 | today's idea to yourself, as usual. Close your eyes as you do so and | spend a minute or two in searching your mind for those whom you have |

| W1:71.15 | some six or seven times an hour. There could be no better way to | spend a half-minute or less than to remember the Source of your |

| W1:96.16 | for you, and it will yet be yours in full awareness. Every time you | spend five minutes of the hour seeking Him Who joins your mind and |

| W1:98.13 | down all earthly tasks, all little thoughts and limited ideas, and | spend a happy time again with Him. Tell Him once more that you accept |

| Tx:18.19 | another form of this same world you see in dreams. All your time is | spent in dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking dreams have |

| Tx:18.67 | in means. A holy relationship is a means of saving time. One instant | spent together restores the universe to both of you. You are |
| Tx:27.8 | or not. The end of life must come, whatever way that life be | spent. And so take pleasure in the quickly passing and ephemeral. |
| Tx:27.31 | as vacant, and the time devoted to its seeing be perceived as idly | spent, a time unoccupied. |
| Tx:27.32 | which is not seen as filled, an unused interval of time not seen as | spent and fully occupied, becomes a silent invitation to the truth to |
| Tx:31.24 | An instant | spent without your old ideas of who your great companion is and what |
| W1:11.2 | near or far, up or down—anywhere. During the minute or so to be | spent in using the idea, merely repeat it to yourself, being sure to |
| W1:26.6 | any one practice period, because a longer time than usual should be | spent with each one. Today's idea should be applied as follows: |
| W1:74.15 | or two every half-hour, with eyes closed if possible, would be well | spent on this today. |
| W1:97.4 | in which all time stands still; the miracle in which a minute | spent in using these ideas becomes a time which has no length and |
| W1:98.12 | Throughout the hour, let your time be | spent in happy preparation for the next five minutes you will spend |
| W1:106.11 | Be still and listen to the truth today. For each five minutes | spent in listening, a thousand minds are opened to the truth. And |
| W1:124.10 | you gave this half an hour, thankfully aware no time was ever better | spent. |
| W1:138.3 | Without decision, time is but a waste and effort dissipated. It is | spent for nothing in return. And time goes by without results. There |
| W1:153.18 | you keep your mind away from Him a moment, even though your time is | spent in offering salvation to the world. Think you He will not make |
| W1:157.1 | new experience, a different kind of feeling and awareness. You have | spent long days and nights in celebrating death. Today you learn to |
| W2:I.4 | offer it, and it will be accepted. So our times with Him will now be | spent. We say the words of invitation that His Voice suggests, and |

| Tx:5.9 | but I can bring Him to you only at your own invitation. The Holy | Spirit is nothing more than your own right mind. He was also mine. |
| Tx:5.10 | The Holy | Spirit is the only part of the Holy Trinity which is symbolic. He is |
| Tx:5.10 | send you another comforter, and He will abide with you.” The Holy | Spirit is a difficult concept to grasp precisely because it is |
| Tx:5.10 | which came from the Universal Inspiration which is the Holy | Spirit, taught me first and foremost that this Inspiration is for |
| Tx:5.11 | you can obstruct it, although you can never lose it. The Holy | Spirit is the Christ Mind, which senses the knowledge that lies |
| Tx:5.12 | became so lofty that they could reach almost back to Him. The Holy | Spirit is the Mind of the Atonement. It represents a state of mind |
| Tx:5.13 | The Holy | Spirit, the shared Inspiration of all the Sonship, induces a kind of |
| Tx:5.17 | Healing is not creating; it is reparation. The Holy | Spirit promotes healing by looking beyond it to what the Children of |
| Tx:5.17 | the shift in time perception which the miracle introduces. The Holy | Spirit is the motivation for miracle-mindedness, the will to heal the |
| Tx:5.18 | just this fusion or union of will between Father and Son. The Holy | Spirit is the spirit of joy. He is the Call to return with which God |
| Tx:5.18 | or union of will between Father and Son. The Holy Spirit is the | spirit of joy. He is the Call to return with which God blessed the |
| Tx:5.18 | and would not have understood the call to right thinking. The Holy | Spirit was God's Answer to the separation, the means by which the |
| Tx:5.19 | is given you by God Who asks you only to listen to it. The Holy | Spirit is in you in a very literal sense. His is the Voice that calls |
| Tx:5.20 | are as equal as learners as they are as Souls. The Voice of the Holy | Spirit is the call to Atonement or the restoration of the integrity |
| Tx:5.20 | will be no call to return, but what God creates is eternal. The Holy | Spirit will remain with the Sons of God to bless their creations and |
| Tx:5.21 | in darkness enter your minds, and so you need a new light. The Holy | Spirit is the radiance that you must let banish the idea of darkness. |
| Tx:5.22 | because you had made another voice through another will. The Holy | Spirit calls you both to remember and to forget. You have chosen to |
| Tx:5.23 | its application is different. Choosing means divided will. The Holy | Spirit is one way of choosing. This way is in you because there is |
| Tx:5.23 | put in their minds was not the voice of His Will for which the Holy | Spirit speaks. The call to return is stronger than the call to |
| Tx:5.24 | The Voice of the Holy | Spirit does not command, because it is incapable of arrogance. It |
| Tx:5.25 | it. It is therefore lost to him until he chooses right. The Holy | Spirit is your Guide in choosing. He is the part of your mind which |
| Tx:5.26 | The Holy | Spirit is the way in which God's Will can be done on earth as it is |
| Tx:5.28 | with me. Rest does not come from sleeping but from waking. The Holy | Spirit is the call to awake and be glad. The world is very tired, |
| Tx:5.28 | it to the Call for God. Everyone will answer the Call of the Holy | Spirit, or the Sonship cannot be as one. What better vocation could |
| Tx:5.29 | Hear only this through the Holy | Spirit within you, and teach your brothers to listen as I am teaching |
| Tx:5.30 | way or another Voice. Having given this invitation to the Holy | Spirit, I could come to provide the model for how to think. |
| Tx:5.30 | we must respond to the same mind to do this. This mind is the Holy | Spirit, whose will is for God always. He teaches you how to keep me |
| Tx:5.31 | my message is for you to hear and give away as you answer the Holy | Spirit within you. |
| Tx:5.32 | The way to learn to know your brother is by perceiving the Holy | Spirit in him. We have already said that the Holy Spirit is the |
| Tx:5.32 | the Holy Spirit in him. We have already said that the Holy | Spirit is the bridge or thought-transfer of perception to knowledge, |
| Tx:5.33 | The Holy | Spirit is the idea of healing. Being thought, the idea gains as it is |
| Tx:5.33 | of yourself as well as of all the parts of God. The idea of the Holy | Spirit shares the property of other ideas, because it follows the |
| Tx:5.33 | to exist, your brother does not have to be aware of the Holy | Spirit either in himself or in you for this miracle to occur. |
| Tx:5.34 | be in his, because you are perceiving him. See him through the Holy | Spirit in his mind, and you will recognize Him in yours. What you |
| Tx:5.35 | The Voice of the Holy | Spirit is weak in you. That is why you must share it. It must be |
| Tx:5.35 | by being shared. If you make the mistake of looking for the Holy | Spirit in yourself alone, your meditations will frighten you because |
| Tx:5.36 | delay are meaningless in eternity. We have said before that the Holy | Spirit is God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the Holy |
| Tx:5.36 | Holy Spirit is God's Answer to the ego. Everything of which the Holy | Spirit reminds you is in direct opposition to the ego's notions, |
| Tx:5.36 | because true and false perceptions are themselves opposed. The Holy | Spirit has the task of undoing what the ego has made. He undoes it in |
| Tx:5.38 | The Holy | Spirit is the Mediator between the interpretations of the ego and the |
| Tx:5.38 | Understanding is light, and light leads to knowledge. The Holy | Spirit is in light because He is in you who are light, but you |
| Tx:5.38 | yourselves do not know this. It is therefore the task of the Holy | Spirit to reinterpret you on behalf of God. |
| Tx:5.39 | your life, your eternity, and yourself. It is of this that the Holy | Spirit reminds you. It is this that the Holy Spirit sees. This vision |
| Tx:5.39 | of this that the Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this that the Holy | Spirit sees. This vision invariably frightens the ego because it is |
| Tx:5.40 | The Holy | Spirit is as vigilant as the ego to the call of danger, opposing it |
| Tx:5.40 | strength, just as the ego welcomes it with all its might. The Holy | Spirit counters this welcome by welcoming peace. Peace and eternity |
| Tx:5.41 | The ego is the symbol of separation, just as the Holy | Spirit is the symbol of peace. What you perceive in others, you are |
| Tx:5.41 | in yourself. You let your mind misperceive, but the Holy | Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The Holy |
| Tx:5.41 | Spirit lets your mind reinterpret its own misperceptions. The Holy | Spirit is the perfect teacher. He uses only what your minds already |
| Tx:5.41 | understand to teach you that you do not understand it. The Holy | Spirit can deal with an unwilling learner without going counter to |
| Tx:5.41 | than the ego, even though the ego does not recognize it. The Holy | Spirit recognizes it perfectly, because it is His own dwelling place |
| Tx:5.42 | in eternity. The ego made the world as it perceives it, but the Holy | Spirit, the reinterpreter of what the ego made, sees it only as a |
| Tx:5.42 | sees it only as a teaching device for bringing you home. The Holy | Spirit must perceive time and reinterpret it into the timeless. The |
| Tx:5.43 | The Holy | Spirit must work through opposites, because He must work with and for |
| Tx:5.43 | not made truth, but truth can still set you free. Look as the Holy | Spirit looks, and understand as He understands. His understanding |
| Tx:5.45 | are beyond destruction and beyond guilt. They came from the Holy | Spirit within you, and we know what God creates is eternal. What fear |
| Tx:5.46 | safely fail to acknowledge anything that is true. However, the Holy | Spirit will not fail to help you reinterpret everything that you |
| Tx:5.47 | of the Kingdom. Nothing good is lost because it comes from the Holy | Spirit, the Voice for creation. Nothing that is not good was ever |
| Tx:5.53 | of the parts of the Sonship, which hear the call of the Holy | Spirit to be as One. |
| Tx:5.54 | the mind which was in me rejoices as you choose to hear it. The Holy | Spirit atones in all of us by undoing and thus lifts the burden you |
| Tx:5.56 | same level. It is impossible to share opposing thoughts. The Holy | Spirit does not let you forsake your brothers. Therefore, you can |
| Tx:5.57 | God lacks nothing. Everything you think that is not through the Holy | Spirit is lacking. |
| Tx:5.59 | use of guilt is clarified. The ego has a purpose, just as the Holy | Spirit has. The ego's purpose is fear because only the fearful can be |
| Tx:5.59 | be egotistic. The ego's logic is as impeccable as that of the Holy | Spirit, because your mind has all the means at its disposal to side |
| Tx:5.59 | here because, once what you have made is undone by the Holy | Spirit, the blessed residue is restored and therefore continues in |
| Tx:5.67 | The Holy | Spirit, like the ego, is a decision. Together they constitute all the |
| Tx:5.67 | which the mind can accept and obey. The ego and the Holy | Spirit are the only choices open to you. God created one, and so you |
| Tx:5.73 | in me is in you, for God creates with perfect fairness. Let the Holy | Spirit remind you always of His fairness, and let me teach you how to |
| Tx:5.74 | The ego speaks in judgment and the Holy | Spirit reverses its decisions, much as the Supreme Court has the |
| Tx:5.75 | shall perish.” There are many others, but if you will let the Holy | Spirit reinterpret these in His own light, they will suffice. |
| Tx:5.76 | fact that vengeance cannot be shared. Give it therefore to the Holy | Spirit, who will undo it in you because it does not belong in your |
| Tx:5.77 | beyond itself. Actually, all the quotation means is that the Holy | Spirit in later generations retains the power to interpret correctly |
| Tx:5.82 | device which will be abolished when it is no longer useful. The Holy | Spirit, Who speaks for God in time, also knows that time is |
| Tx:5.83 | on Him,” a statement which means that God's peace is set in the Holy | Spirit because it is fixed on God. It is also fixed in you. You, |
| Tx:5.85 | Holy Spirit's set is the basis for His unequivocal Voice. The Holy | Spirit never changes His Mind. Clarity of thought cannot occur under |
| Tx:5.87 | Second, although Freud misinterpreted what the Holy | Spirit told him, or better, reminded him of, he was too honest to |
| Tx:5.92 | when you know the Voice of God Himself is in you? God commended His | Spirit to you and asks that you commend yours to Him. He wills to |
| Tx:5.92 | wills to keep it in perfect peace, because you are of one mind and | spirit with Him. Excluding yourself from the Atonement is the ego's |
| Tx:5.95 | the following as sincerely as you can, remembering that the Holy | Spirit will respond fully to your slightest invitation: |
| Tx:5.96 | I want to be at peace. I do not feel guilty, because the Holy | Spirit will undo all the consequences of my wrong decision if I will |
| Tx:6.13 | learners, even though we need not have equal experiences. The Holy | Spirit is glad when you can learn enough from mine to be re-awakened |
| Tx:6.14 | sacrifice. On the contrary, by enabling yourselves to hear the Holy | Spirit in others, you can learn from their experiences and gain from |
| Tx:6.14 | them without experiencing them yourselves. That is because the Holy | Spirit is one, and anyone who listens is inevitably led to |
| Tx:6.14 | was I. You are not asked to repeat my experiences, because the Holy | Spirit, Whom we share, makes this unnecessary. To use my experiences |
| Tx:6.15 | no perception which is out of accord with the judgment of the Holy | Spirit can be justified. I undertook to show this was true in a very |

| Tx:6.29 | The Holy | Spirit begins by perceiving you as perfect. Knowing this perfection |
| Tx:6.29 | both because it establishes inclusion. Perceiving equality, the Holy | Spirit perceives equal needs. This invites Atonement automatically, |
| Tx:6.31 | The ego's perception has no counterpart in God, but the Holy | Spirit remains the bridge between perception and knowledge. By |
| Tx:6.31 | this meeting is impossible, yet it is your perception which the Holy | Spirit guides. You might remember that the human eye perceives |
| Tx:6.32 | because they were created neither partially nor in part. The Holy | Spirit enables you to perceive this wholeness now. You can no more |
| Tx:6.32 | alone. Prayer is the restatement of inclusion, directed by the Holy | Spirit under the laws of God. God created you to create. You cannot |
| Tx:6.33 | perception of any kind is unnecessary, you made it, and the Holy | Spirit can therefore use it well. He can inspire perception and lead |
| Tx:6.34 | The Holy | Spirit uses time but does not believe in it. Coming from God, He uses |
| Tx:6.34 | good, but He does not believe in what is not true. Since the Holy | Spirit is in your minds, your minds must also be able to believe only |
| Tx:6.34 | your minds must also be able to believe only what is true. The Holy | Spirit can speak only for this because he speaks for God. He tells |
| Tx:6.35 | it can so easily make the idea seem so difficult. Yet the Holy | Spirit tells you that even return is unnecessary because what never |
| Tx:6.36 | all of your perceptions into the one parallel line which the Holy | Spirit sees. This line is the direct line of communication with God |
| Tx:6.36 | because it means that all perception is guided by the Holy | Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the Holy Spirit can resolve |
| Tx:6.36 | guided by the Holy Spirit, Whose Mind is fixed on God. Only the Holy | Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:6.36 | Only the Holy Spirit can resolve conflict, because only the Holy | Spirit is conflict-free. He perceives only what is true in your mind |
| Tx:6.37 | between the ego's use of projection and projection as the Holy | Spirit uses it is very simple. The ego projects to exclude and |
| Tx:6.37 | The ego projects to exclude and therefore to deceive. The Holy | Spirit projects by recognizing Himself in every mind and thus |
| Tx:6.37 | as one. Nothing conflicts in this perception, because what the Holy | Spirit perceives is the same. Wherever He looks He sees Himself, and |
| Tx:6.38 | forever, but it must shine outward to make you aware of it. The Holy | Spirit was given you with perfect impartiality, and only by |
| Tx:6.38 | can you perceive Him at all. The ego is legion, but the Holy | Spirit is One. No darkness abides anywhere in the Kingdom, but your |
| Tx:6.40 | The Holy | Spirit still holds knowledge safe through His impartial perception. |
| Tx:6.41 | to be conflict-free yourselves, you must learn only from the Holy | Spirit and teach only by Him. You are only love, but when you denied |
| Tx:6.42 | The only real safety lies in projecting only the Holy | Spirit because, as you see His gentleness in others, your own mind |
| Tx:6.45 | Remember that the Holy | Spirit is the Answer, not the question. The ego always speaks first |
| Tx:6.45 | at any moment. If it meant you well, it would be glad, as the Holy | Spirit will be glad when He has brought you home and you no longer |
| Tx:6.47 | fully understand one basic fact that the ego does not know. The Holy | Spirit does not speak first, but He always answers. Everyone has |
| Tx:6.47 | and in one way or another and has been answered. Since the Holy | Spirit answers truly, He answers for all time, which means that |
| Tx:6.48 | The ego cannot hear the Holy | Spirit, but it does believe that part of the same mind that made it |
| Tx:6.50 | Hear then the one answer of the Holy | Spirit to all the questions which the ego raises. You are a Child of |
| Tx:6.55 | That is why the Holy | Spirit never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which the |
| Tx:6.55 | never commands. To command is to assume inequality, which the Holy | Spirit demonstrates does not exist. Fidelity to premises is a law of |
| Tx:6.57 | Like any good teacher, the Holy | Spirit does know more than you do now, but He teaches only to make |
| Tx:6.60 | The Holy | Spirit never itemizes errors because He does not frighten children, |
| Tx:6.60 | are frightened, because they do not know the difference. The Holy | Spirit makes no distinction among dreams. He merely shines them away. |
| Tx:6.60 | you have been dreaming. Nothing lasting lies in dreams, and the Holy | Spirit, shining with the light from God Himself, speaks only for what |
| Tx:6.62 | clearly a separation device and therefore does not exist. The Holy | Spirit, as always, takes what you have made and translates it into a |
| Tx:6.63 | We have said that the Holy | Spirit is the motivation for miracles. This is because He always |
| Tx:6.63 | By the laws of mind, then, the body is meaningless. To the Holy | Spirit, there is no order of difficulty in miracles. This is familiar |
| Tx:6.65 | The Holy | Spirit, who leads to God, translates communication into being, just |
| Tx:6.65 | insanity of this perception makes it a fearful one indeed. The Holy | Spirit sees the body only as a means of communication and because |
| Tx:6.66 | allegiance but always for what each one can get separately. The Holy | Spirit communicates only what each one can give to all. He never |
| Tx:6.76 | you that it is up to you to decide which voice is true, but the Holy | Spirit teaches you that truth was created by God, and your decision |
| Tx:6.76 | before that there was help in reminding yourselves to allow the Holy | Spirit to decide for God for you. |
| Tx:6.77 | that it is up to you to decide what God's creations are. The Holy | Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is. Therefore, His second |
| Tx:6.81 | that is a demonstration of your growing awareness that the Holy | Spirit will lead you on. |
| Tx:6.82 | is critical to the whole Sonship. We said before that the Holy | Spirit is evaluative and must be. Yet His evaluation does not extend |
| Tx:6.83 | What you must remember, however, is that what the Holy | Spirit rejects, the ego accepts. This is because they are in |
| Tx:6.83 | issue vary, and that is why it promotes different moods. The Holy | Spirit never varies on this point, and so the one mood He engenders |
| Tx:6.84 | The Holy | Spirit does not teach your mind to be critical of other minds, |
| Tx:6.88 | that you can choose either one. By teaching what to choose, the Holy | Spirit will ultimately be able to teach you that you need not choose |
| Tx:6.88 | it towards creation within the Kingdom. Choosing through the Holy | Spirit will lead you to the Kingdom. You create by what you are, but |
| Tx:6.89 | will still be taken for you by God, but by the third step the Holy | Spirit has prepared you for God. He is getting you ready for the |
| Tx:6.95 | step, but I also told you that the third one follows it. The Holy | Spirit will enable you to go on if you follow Him. Your vigilance is |
| Tx:7.6 | is to share the perfect love He shares with you. To this the Holy | Spirit leads you that your joy may be complete, because the Kingdom |
| Tx:7.6 | and nothing that is true needs to be explained. However, the Holy | Spirit has the task of translating the useless into the useful, the |
| Tx:7.10 | correct perception in your brother and yourself by sharing the Holy | Spirit with him. This places you both within the Kingdom and restores |
| Tx:7.15 | change the form so that the original meaning is retained. The Holy | Spirit is the translator of the laws of God to those who do not |
| Tx:7.17 | cannot be consistent unless it is remembered. That is why the Holy | Spirit is a lesson in remembering. We said before that He teaches |
| Tx:7.22 | its purpose. Therefore, it does not really learn at all. The Holy | Spirit teaches you to use what the ego has made to teach the opposite |
| Tx:7.22 | of the Holy Spirit's unified purpose than this course. The Holy | Spirit has taken very diversified areas of your learning and has |
| Tx:7.23 | You made the effort to learn, and the Holy | Spirit has a unified goal for all effort. He adapts the ego's |
| Tx:7.24 | to be no connection, because the ego is discontinuous. Yet the Holy | Spirit teaches one lesson and applies it to all individuals in all |
| Tx:7.30 | question reality is to question meaninglessly. That is why the Holy | Spirit never questions. His sole function is to undo the questionable |
| Tx:7.31 | depressed, because they believe that they are literally “without the | Spirit,” which is an illusion. You do not put the Spirit in them by |
| Tx:7.31 | “without the Spirit,” which is an illusion. You do not put the | Spirit in them by inspiring them, because that would be magic and |
| Tx:7.31 | therefore would not be real healing. You do, however, recognize the | Spirit that is already there and thereby reawaken it. This is why the |
| Tx:7.31 | This is why the healer is part of the resurrection and the life. The | Spirit is not asleep in the minds of the sick, but the part of the |
| Tx:7.33 | be recognized and need only be recognized. Inspiration is of the | Spirit, and certainty is of God according to His laws. Both, |
| Tx:7.34 | The Holy | Spirit must work through you to teach you He is in you. This is an |
| Tx:7.34 | are in God, because you are part of Him. The miracles which the Holy | Spirit inspires can have no order of difficulty, because every part |
| Tx:7.34 | God's Will and yours. The laws of God establish this, and the Holy | Spirit reminds you of it. When you heal, you are remembering the laws |
| Tx:7.35 | All abilities, then, should be given over to the Holy | Spirit, Who knows how to use them properly. He can use them only for |
| Tx:7.35 | you learn to remember God. You have forgotten Him, but the Holy | Spirit still knows that your forgetting must be translated into a way |
| Tx:7.36 | to any extent. The ego always seeks to divide and separate. The Holy | Spirit always seeks to unify and heal. As you heal you are healed, |
| Tx:7.36 | to unify and heal. As you heal you are healed, because the Holy | Spirit sees no order of healing. Healing is the way to undo the |
| Tx:7.38 | its existence in your brothers. This strengthens the Holy | Spirit in both of you, because it is a refusal to acknowledge fear. |
| Tx:7.44 | The Holy | Spirit does not work by chance, and healing that is of Him always |
| Tx:7.48 | could not have changed his mind. That is how you perceive the Holy | Spirit in him. It is only the Holy Spirit in him that never changes |
| Tx:7.48 | That is how you perceive the Holy Spirit in him. It is only the Holy | Spirit in him that never changes His Mind. He himself must think he |
| Tx:7.53 | to Him and therefore to His Sons. This is the true communion of the | Spirit, Who sees the altar of God in everyone and, by bringing it to |
| Tx:7.54 | They make or create, depending on whether the ego or the Holy | Spirit begets or inspires them, but they will return to the mind of |
| Tx:7.60 | The Holy | Spirit undoes illusions without attacking them merely because He |
| Tx:7.60 | by perceiving conflict as meaningless. We said before that the Holy | Spirit perceives the conflict exactly as it is, and it is |
| Tx:7.60 | the conflict exactly as it is, and it is meaningless. The Holy | Spirit does not want you to understand conflict; He wants you to |
| Tx:7.61 | If you will keep in mind what the Holy | Spirit offers you, you cannot be vigilant for anything but God and |
| Tx:7.61 | which are not true and would never have been called upon by the Holy | Spirit if you had not believed the untrue. You cannot deny that, when |
| Tx:7.64 | committed to untruth, perceiving in total contradiction to the Holy | Spirit and to the knowledge of God. |
| Tx:7.65 | You can be perceived with meaning only by the Holy | Spirit, because your being is the knowledge of God. Any belief that |
| Tx:7.68 | In this depressing state, the Holy | Spirit reminds you gently that you are sad because you are not |
| Tx:7.71 | because it will be used for attack, but in the service of the Holy | Spirit, [the law becomes as beneficent as all of the laws of God. |
| Tx:7.82 | as a way of getting rid of something it does not want. To the Holy | Spirit, it is the fundamental law of sharing by which you give what |
| Tx:7.83 | Projection, to the Holy | Spirit, is the law of extension. To the ego, it is the law of |
| Tx:7.88 | as yours, do not keep them. Give them over quickly to the Holy | Spirit to be undone completely so that all their effects will vanish |
| Tx:7.89 | The Holy | Spirit will teach you to perceive beyond belief, because truth is |
| Tx:7.91 | is of the Soul, because that is how God created it. The Holy | Spirit is the part of the mind that lies between the ego and the |
| Tx:7.95 | to them. Your creations are protected for you, because the Holy | Spirit, Who is in your mind, knows of them and can bring them into |
| Tx:7.100 | Will as yours, and you are denying His Kingdom and yours. The Holy | Spirit will direct you only so as to avoid pain. The undoing of pain |
| Tx:7.100 | goal if he recognized it. The problem is not whether what the Holy | Spirit says is true, but whether you want to listen to what He says. |
| Tx:7.101 | confusion is the cause of the whole idea of sacrifice. Obey the Holy | Spirit, and you will be giving up the ego. But you will be |
| Tx:7.103 | The Holy | Spirit always sides with you and with your strength. As long as you |
| Tx:7.103 | can this decision mean except that you want to be fearful? The Holy | Spirit never asks for sacrifice, but the ego always does. When you |
| Tx:7.104 | of this decision is confusion, this is hardly surprising.] The Holy | Spirit is perfectly trustworthy, as you are. God Himself trusts you, |
| Tx:7.107 | The Holy | Spirit will always guide you truly, because your joy is His. This is |
| Tx:7.110 | become the perfect teacher, because he has learned it of the Holy | Spirit, Who wants to teach him everything He knows. When a mind has |
| Tx:8.8 | confused and totally confusing. Even if you could disregard the Holy | Spirit entirely, which is quite impossible, you could learn nothing |
| Tx:8.11 | and makes you afraid of your will because it is free. The Holy | Spirit opposes any imprisoning of the will of a Son of God, knowing |
| Tx:8.11 | of God, knowing that the will of the Son is the Father's. The Holy | Spirit leads you steadily along the path of freedom, teaching you how |
| Tx:8.12 | We said before that the Holy | Spirit teaches you the difference between pain and joy. That is the |
| Tx:8.15 | To what else except all power and glory can the Holy | Spirit appeal to restore God's Kingdom? His appeal, then, is merely |
| Tx:8.17 | forced upon you, being an experience of total willingness. The Holy | Spirit knows how to teach this, but you do not. That is why you need |
| Tx:8.18 | extending His Fatherhood by placing no limits upon it. Let the Holy | Spirit teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means of |
| Tx:8.20 | them in yourself, because it does not know where to look. The Holy | Spirit teaches you that if you look only at yourself, you cannot find |
| Tx:8.23 | them. The ego teaches that your strength is in you alone. The Holy | Spirit teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you. God |
| Tx:8.41 | The ego's way is not mine, but it is also not yours. The Holy | Spirit has one direction for all minds, and the one He taught me is |
| Tx:8.54 | Remember that the Holy | Spirit interprets the body only as a means of communication. Being |
| Tx:8.54 | the communication link between God and His separated Sons, the Holy | Spirit interprets everything you have made in the light of what He |
| Tx:8.54 | light of what He is. The ego separates through the body. The Holy | Spirit reaches through it to others. You do not perceive your |
| Tx:8.54 | through it to others. You do not perceive your brothers as the Holy | Spirit does, because you do not interpret their bodies and yours |
| Tx:8.55 | is God's way of making unlimited what you have limited. The Holy | Spirit does not see the body as you do, because He knows the only |
| Tx:8.56 | If the body becomes for you a means which you give to the Holy | Spirit to use on behalf of union of the Sonship, you will not see |
| Tx:8.56 | done so by misusing it. Interpret anything apart from the Holy | Spirit, and you will mistrust it. This will lead you to hatred and |
| Tx:8.61 | to be ruled by chaos. Guided by the ego, it is. Guided by the Holy | Spirit, it is not. It becomes only a means by which the part of the |
| Tx:8.61 | to the Soul. The ego's temple thus becomes the temple of the Holy | Spirit, where devotion to Him replaces devotion to the ego. In this |
| Tx:8.74 | upon witnesses who would disagree with its case, nor does the Holy | Spirit. We have said that judgment is the function of the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:8.74 | Holy Spirit. We have said that judgment is the function of the Holy | Spirit and one which He is perfectly equipped to fulfill. The ego as |
| Tx:8.76 | endless prescriptions for avoiding catastrophic outcomes. The Holy | Spirit, perfectly aware of the same data, does not bother to analyze |
| Tx:8.78 | It cannot be louder without violating your will, which the Holy | Spirit seeks to free but never to command. |
| Tx:8.79 | The Holy | Spirit teaches you to use your body only to reach your brothers, so |
| Tx:8.79 | you. Everything used in accordance with its function as the Holy | Spirit sees it cannot be sick. Everything used otherwise is. Do not |
| Tx:8.79 | natural state of anything whose interpretation is left to the Holy | Spirit, Who perceives no attack on anything. Health is the result of |
| Tx:8.80 | We once said that the Holy | Spirit is the Answer. He is the Answer to everything, because He |
| Tx:8.80 | questions. When the ego tempts you to sickness, do not ask the Holy | Spirit to heal the body, for this would merely be to accept the ego's |
| Tx:8.80 | the body is the proper aim for healing. Ask rather that the Holy | Spirit teach you the right perception of the body, for perception |
| Tx:8.82 | joining means if you are sleeping under its guidance. Yet the Holy | Spirit, too, has use for sleep and can use dreams on behalf of waking |
| Tx:8.83 | you place it? Whenever you wake dispiritedly, it was not of the Holy | Spirit. Only when you awaken joyously have you utilized sleep |
| Tx:8.84 | love, since all healing involves replacing fear with love. The Holy | Spirit cannot distinguish among degrees of error, for if He taught |
| Tx:8.94 | can only be what you think you lose. Yet it is only what the Holy | Spirit sees that you can possibly have. We have emphasized many times |
| Tx:8.94 | you can possibly have. We have emphasized many times that the Holy | Spirit will never call upon you to sacrifice anything. But if you ask |
| Tx:8.94 | But if you ask the sacrifice of reality of yourselves, the Holy | Spirit must remind you that this is not God's Will because it is not |
| Tx:8.95 | is precisely what you will ask for. You may insist that the Holy | Spirit does not answer you, but it might be wiser to consider the |
| Tx:8.98 | it is still true that they do not want them. Can you ask the Holy | Spirit for “gifts” such as these and actually expect to receive them? |
| Tx:8.98 | “gifts” such as these and actually expect to receive them? [The Holy | Spirit is totally incapable of giving you anything that does not come |
| Tx:8.100 | When you ask the Holy | Spirit for what would hurt you, He cannot answer, because nothing can |
| Tx:8.100 | a request. It is merely a denial in the form of a request. The Holy | Spirit is not concerned with form at all, being aware only of |
| Tx:8.100 | at all, being aware only of meaning. The ego cannot ask the Holy | Spirit for anything because there is complete communication failure |
| Tx:8.100 | failure between them. Yet you can ask for everything of the Holy | Spirit because your requests are real, being of your will. Would the |
| Tx:8.100 | because your requests are real, being of your will. Would the Holy | Spirit deny the Will of God? And could He fail to recognize it in His |
| Tx:8.108 | Let us suppose, then, that what you request of the Holy | Spirit is what you really want, but you are still afraid of it. |
| Tx:8.109 | if no effort is wasted. The very fact that one has asked the Holy | Spirit for anything will ensure a response. Yet it is equally certain |
| Tx:8.109 | Yet it is equally certain that no response given by the Holy | Spirit will ever be one which would increase fear. It is possible |
| Tx:8.110 | in me whose faith in you cannot be shaken. Can you ask of the Holy | Spirit truly and doubt your brother? Believe his words are true |
| Tx:8.111 | about him determines the message you receive. Remember that the Holy | Spirit is in him, and His Voice speaks to you through him. What can |
| Tx:8.112 | Salvation is of your brother. The Holy | Spirit extends from your mind to his and answers you. You cannot hear |
| Tx:8.112 | unless you extend it. You will not trust the guidance of the Holy | Spirit or believe that it is for you unless you hear it in others. It |
| Tx:8.113 | me. Knowing what you are, I cannot doubt you. I hear only the Holy | Spirit in you, who speaks to me through you. If you would hear me, |
| Tx:8.118 | You can ask of the Holy | Spirit, then, only by giving to Him, and you can give to Him only |
| Tx:9.1 | errors which other egos make is not the kind of vigilance the Holy | Spirit would have you maintain. Egos are critical in terms of the |
| Tx:9.1 | this kind of sense because it is sensible to them. To the Holy | Spirit, it makes no sense at all. To the ego, it is kind and right |
| Tx:9.3 | brother's ego, you must be seeing through yours, because the Holy | Spirit does not perceive his errors. This must be true if there is no |
| Tx:9.3 | if there is no communication at all between the ego and the Holy | Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not attempt |
| Tx:9.3 | the ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego makes no sense, and the Holy | Spirit does not attempt to understand anything that arises from it. |
| Tx:9.4 | When you react at all to errors, you are not listening to the Holy | Spirit. He has merely disregarded them, and if you attend to them, |
| Tx:9.5 | you are accepting yours. If you want to give yours over to the Holy | Spirit, you must do this with his. Unless this becomes the one way in |
| Tx:9.7 | keep it, see only truth beside you, for you walk together. The Holy | Spirit in you forgives all things in you and in your brother. His |
| Tx:9.7 | ego. Correction is of God, Who does not know of arrogance. The Holy | Spirit forgives everything, because God created everything. |
| Tx:9.11 | which is given you because you have forgotten how to do it. The Holy | Spirit merely reminds you of what is your natural ability. By |
| Tx:9.11 | its judgment. All their helpfulness lies in the judgment of the Holy | Spirit. |
| Tx:9.14 | Forgiveness through the Holy | Spirit lies simply in looking beyond error from the beginning and |
| Tx:9.14 | to be forgiven. What has no effect does not exist, and to the Holy | Spirit, the effects of error are totally non-existent. By steadily |
| Tx:9.23 | as the older ones, because form does not matter to the Holy | Spirit and therefore does not matter at all. According to the newer |
| Tx:9.23 | equated with the mind, the mind's corrective power through the Holy | Spirit is denied. |
| Tx:9.28 | him. Yet, being for him, it must also be for his patient. The Holy | Spirit is the only therapist. He makes healing perfectly clear in any |
| Tx:9.29 | As you awaken other minds to the Holy | Spirit through Him and not yourself, you will understand that you are |
| Tx:9.31 | How can you become increasingly aware of the Holy | Spirit in you except by His effects? You cannot see Him with your |
| Tx:9.32 | It seems to you that the Holy | Spirit does not produce joy consistently in you only because you do |
| Tx:9.35 | not yet awake, but you can learn how to awaken. Very simply the Holy | Spirit teaches you to awaken others. As you see them waken, you will |
| Tx:9.40 | It is perfectly obvious that if the Holy | Spirit looks with love on all He perceives, He looks with love on |
| Tx:9.41 | is deceived by everything you do, even when you respond to the Holy | Spirit, because at such times its confusion increases. The ego is, |
| Tx:9.44 | beyond it, because, within it, its foundation does stand. The Holy | Spirit judges against the reality of the ego's thought system merely |
| Tx:9.44 | Therefore, nothing that arises from it means anything. The Holy | Spirit judges every belief you hold in terms of where it comes from. |
| Tx:9.56 | What good can come of it? And if no good can come of it, the Holy | Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot transform to the Will of God |
| Tx:9.58 | it or prevail over it. It does not vary. It merely is. Ask the Holy | Spirit what it is and He will tell you, but do not be afraid of His |
| Tx:9.66 | neither? You do not remember being awake. When you hear the Holy | Spirit, you merely feel better because loving seems possible to you, |
| Tx:9.69 | decision lie joy and peace and the glory of creation. Offer the Holy | Spirit only your will to remember, for He retains the knowledge of |
| Tx:9.91 | the recognition that his brother can do it. It is a call to the Holy | Spirit in his mind, a call to Him which is strengthened by this |
| Tx:10.12 | merely because it is yours. You do not know what it is, but the Holy | Spirit remembers it for you. Ask Him, therefore, what God's Will is |
| Tx:10.12 | too often repeated that you do not know it. Whenever what the Holy | Spirit tells you appears to be coercive, it is only because you do |
| Tx:10.15 | You are asked to trust the Holy | Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is the Voice for God, but |
| Tx:10.19 | And this willingness opens his own ears to the Voice of the Holy | Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He will enable you to go far |
| Tx:10.20 | The Holy | Spirit cannot speak to an unwelcoming host because He will not be |
| Tx:10.22 | not real freedom, for it still depends on how you see it. The Holy | Spirit is there, although He cannot help you without your invitation, |
| Tx:10.53 | The ego analyzes; the Holy | Spirit accepts. The appreciation of wholeness comes only through |
| Tx:10.63 | He would only have you learn your own will and follow it, not in the | spirit of sacrifice and submission, but in the gladness of freedom. |
| Tx:10.73 | it is His Will to be known. The real world is all that the Holy | Spirit has saved for you out of what you have made, and to perceive |
| Tx:10.75 | what you perceive, for its meaning is lost to you. Yet the Holy | Spirit has saved its meaning for you, and if you will let Him |
| Tx:10.80 | to be told very clearly that if you ask you will receive. The Holy | Spirit will answer every specific problem as long as you believe that |
| Tx:10.81 | asking is taking, and you do not perceive it as sharing. The Holy | Spirit will give you only what is yours and will take nothing in |
| Tx:10.81 | and you share it with God. This is its reality. Would the Holy | Spirit, Who wills only to restore, be capable of misinterpreting the |
| Tx:10.82 | the question. You have believed that to ask for guidance of the Holy | Spirit is to ask for deprivation. Little Children of God, you do not |
| Tx:10.87 | and are condemning God's Son, whom God condemneth not. Let the Holy | Spirit remove all offense of God's Son against himself and perceive |
| Tx:10.90 | in yourself. Yet you can learn the truth of yourself of the Holy | Spirit, who will teach you that, as part of God, deceit in you is |
| Tx:11.6 | your help, and you will not perceive God's answer to you. The Holy | Spirit does not need your help in interpreting motivation, but you do |
| Tx:11.9 | is necessary to demonstrate the need for escape. The Holy | Spirit must still translate it into truth. If you were left with the |
| Tx:11.13 | it, for the awareness of truth cannot be denied. Thus does the Holy | Spirit replace fear with love and translate error into truth. And |
| Tx:11.22 | for to lay aside means to judge against. If you will look, the Holy | Spirit will judge and will judge truly. He cannot shine away what you |
| Tx:11.23 | carefully planned program aimed at learning how to offer to the Holy | Spirit everything you do not want. He knows what to do with it. You |
| Tx:11.35 | investment in the world as you have projected it, allowing the Holy | Spirit to project the real world to you from the altar of God. |
| Tx:11.39 | find is hardly joyous. Is this the promise you would keep? The Holy | Spirit offers you another promise, and one that will lead to joy. For |
| Tx:11.40 | yourself, for you do not believe your home is there. Yet the Holy | Spirit knows it for you, and He will guide you to your home because |

| Tx:11.42 | Yet you must invest in it, not with money but with your spirit. For | Spirit is will, and will is the “price” of the Kingdom. Your |
| Tx:11.42 | awaits only the recognition that you have been redeemed. The Holy | Spirit guides you into life eternal, but you must relinquish your |
| Tx:11.53 | you how to gain the whole world and lose your own Soul. The Holy | Spirit teaches that you cannot lose your Soul and there is no gain in |
| Tx:11.54 | The Holy | Spirit is your strength because He perceives nothing but your Soul as |
| Tx:11.55 | world real unto yourself, for the real world is the gift of the Holy | Spirit, and so it belongs to you. |
| Tx:11.57 | The Holy | Spirit keeps the vision of Christ for every Son of God who sleeps. In |
| Tx:11.57 | For reality is one with the Father and the Son, and the Holy | Spirit blesses the real world in Their Name. |
| Tx:11.58 | you in the quiet light of the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the Holy | Spirit will lead everyone home to his Father, where Christ waits as |
| Tx:11.59 | He knows because He knows His Father's love for Him. When the Holy | Spirit has at last led you to Christ at the altar to His Father, |
| Tx:11.60 | God's Son becomes so enlightened that light streams into it, and the | Spirit of God's Son shines in the Mind of the Father and becomes one |
| Tx:11.61 | radiate from your acceptance of it for yourself to everyone the Holy | Spirit sends you for your blessing. In every Child of God His |
| Tx:11.63 | The Holy | Spirit is invisible, but you can see the results of His Presence, and |
| Tx:11.63 | mass, of prediction and control is transcended, for what the Holy | Spirit enables you to do is clearly beyond all of them. Perceiving |
| Tx:11.64 | You cannot see the Holy | Spirit, but you can see His manifestations. And unless you do, you |
| Tx:11.64 | is healing. God shares His function with you in Heaven, and the Holy | Spirit shares His with you on earth. |
| Tx:11.66 | I am the manifestation of the Holy | Spirit, and when you see me, it will be because you have invited Him. |
| Tx:11.73 | for judgment is not your function. If it is the judgment of the Holy | Spirit, it will be right, for judgment is His function. You share His |
| Tx:11.79 | became invisible. Yet it cannot be invisible in itself, for the Holy | Spirit sees it with perfect clarity. It is invisible to you because |
| Tx:11.79 | to you to decide what reality is. What can be seen is what the Holy | Spirit sees. The definition of reality is God's, not yours. He |
| Tx:11.82 | Everything you made has never been and is invisible because the Holy | Spirit does not see it. Yet what He does see is yours to behold, and |
| Tx:11.82 | truth. God's Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The Holy | Spirit looks upon him and sees nothing else in you. What is invisible |
| Tx:11.89 | Long ago we said that the Holy | Spirit shares the goal of all good teachers, whose ultimate aim is to |
| Tx:11.89 | unnecessary by teaching their pupils all they know. The Holy | Spirit wills only this, for sharing the Father's love for His Son, He |
| Tx:11.92 | sees will never touch him, for although he believes in it, the Holy | Spirit knows it is not true. The Holy Spirit stands at the end of |
| Tx:11.92 | he believes in it, the Holy Spirit knows it is not true. The Holy | Spirit stands at the end of time, where you must be because He is |
| Tx:11.99 | real, and if it is real, there is no way to overcome it. The Holy | Spirit dispels it simply through the calm recognition that it has |
| Tx:12.10 | extent. You may also think that it would be easy enough for the Holy | Spirit to show it to you and dispel it, without the need for you to |
| Tx:12.13 | it, and the whole world you think you control would vanish. The Holy | Spirit, then, seems to be attacking your fortress, for you would shut |
| Tx:12.19 | love, or you will be hiding a dark place in your mind where the Holy | Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt yourself from His healing |
| Tx:12.29 | makes the encounter holy, is excluded from your sight. The Holy | Spirit teaches that you always meet yourself and the encounter is |
| Tx:12.30 | The Holy | Spirit interprets time's purpose as rendering the need for it |
| Tx:12.31 | as one of extending itself in place of eternity, for like the Holy | Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of time as its own. The |
| Tx:12.31 | occur. Its continuity, then, would keep you in time, while the Holy | Spirit would release you from it. It is His interpretation of the |
| Tx:12.44 | The Holy | Spirit is the light in which Christ stands revealed. And all who |
| Tx:12.44 | they looked upon themselves with love, seeing themselves as the Holy | Spirit sees them. And with this vision of the truth in them came all |
| Tx:12.67 | dreams of love. In these lie your true perceptions, for the Holy | Spirit corrects the world of dreams, where all perception is. |
| Tx:12.68 | lacking. Yet can you find yourself in such a world? Without the Holy | Spirit, the answer would be no. Yet because of Him, the answer is a |
| Tx:12.70 | Only the Holy | Spirit knows what you need. For He will give you all things that do |
| Tx:12.73 | The Holy | Spirit leads me unto Christ, and where else would I go? What need |
| Tx:12.75 | to you the peace of mind that we must find together. The Holy | Spirit will teach you to awaken unto us and to yourself. This is the |
| Tx:12.76 | gift to you, so was it the Father's gift to me, given me through His | Spirit. The sound of it will banish sorrow from the Mind of God's |
| Tx:13.1 | All therapy is release from the past. That is why the Holy | Spirit is the only therapist. He teaches that the past does not |
| Tx:13.2 | at its loftiest is never complete. Even the perception of the Holy | Spirit, as perfect as perception can be, is without meaning in |
| Tx:13.4 | Apart from the Father and the Son, the Holy | Spirit has no function. He is not separate from either, being in the |
| Tx:13.7 | and everywhere, for miracles offered the Son of God through the Holy | Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy Spirit knows your part in the |
| Tx:13.7 | Son of God through the Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy | Spirit knows your part in the redemption and who are seeking you and |
| Tx:13.14 | of everything you cherish, for it is the means by which the Holy | Spirit can separate the false and the true, which you have accepted |
| Tx:13.16 | lies the conviction of your own guilt. If you would have the Holy | Spirit make you free of it, accept His offer of Atonement for all |
| Tx:13.21 | and cannot be used by you at all. They are used only by the Holy | Spirit, and it is that which makes them pure. [If you displace your |
| Tx:13.21 | makes them pure. [If you displace your guilt upon them, the Holy | Spirit cannot use them.] For by preempting for your own ends what you |
| Tx:13.25 | that guilt is always totally insane and has no reason. The Holy | Spirit seeks not to dispel reality. If guilt were real, Atonement |
| Tx:13.26 | The Holy | Spirit does not keep illusions in your mind to frighten you and show |
| Tx:13.26 | gone. Give no reality to guilt, and see no reason for it. The Holy | Spirit does what God would have Him do and has always done so. He has |
| Tx:13.29 | in the Mind of God where you are. And this is reason, which the Holy | Spirit would restore to you. He would remove only illusions. All else |
| Tx:13.38 | while you still remember the results of not sharing. The Holy | Spirit points quietly to the contrast, knowing that you will finally |
| Tx:13.39 | are darkened by doubt and guilt, remember this: God gave the Holy | Spirit to you and gave Him the mission to remove all doubt and every |
| Tx:13.39 | is invariable as the peace in which you dwell and of which the Holy | Spirit reminds you. |
| Tx:13.40 | realize that this is what you want, and only this. Fear not the Holy | Spirit will fail in what your Father has given Him to do. The Will of |
| Tx:13.41 | They will not prevail against the peace God wills for you. The Holy | Spirit will restore your sanity, because insanity is not the Will of |
| Tx:13.42 | flows to you from Him Whose Will is peace. You have it now. The Holy | Spirit will teach you how to use it and, by projecting it, to learn |
| Tx:13.43 | God willed you Heaven and will always will you nothing else. The Holy | Spirit knows only of His Will. There is no chance that Heaven will |
| Tx:13.43 | save. It will not be possible to exempt yourself from what the Holy | Spirit wills to teach you. Salvation is as sure as God. His certainty |
| Tx:13.45 | The Holy | Spirit cannot fail to undo for you everything you have learned that |
| Tx:13.45 | for your reconciliation unto sanity and unto peace. The Holy | Spirit has a very different kind of reconciliation in His Mind for |
| Tx:13.46 | cannot wander, and there is no possibility that the plan the Holy | Spirit offers to everyone for the salvation of everyone will not be |
| Tx:13.47 | have the means for learning it and seeing it quite clearly. The Holy | Spirit uses logic as easily and as well as does the ego, except that |
| Tx:13.47 | turn away from them and follow the simple logic by which the Holy | Spirit teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for truth and |
| Tx:13.50 | and your dream is sacred to you. That is why God placed the Holy | Spirit in you, where you placed the dream. |
| Tx:13.52 | Any direction which will lead you where the Holy | Spirit leads you not goes nowhere. Anything you deny which He knows |
| Tx:13.53 | The Holy | Spirit, therefore, must begin His teaching by showing you what you |
| Tx:13.54 | The Holy | Spirit needs a happy learner in whom His mission can be happily |
| Tx:13.54 | must first recognize that you are miserable and not happy. The Holy | Spirit cannot teach without this contrast, for you believe that |
| Tx:13.56 | The Holy | Spirit, seeing where you are but knowing you are elsewhere, begins |
| Tx:13.57 | they are kings with golden crowns because of them. All this the Holy | Spirit sees and teaches simply that all this is not true. To these |
| Tx:13.57 | delude themselves into believing that it is not nothing, the Holy | Spirit says, with steadfast quietness: |
| Tx:13.59 | Like you, the Holy | Spirit did not make truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He |
| Tx:13.61 | you must give everything that you have learned over to the Holy | Spirit to be unlearned for you. And then begin to learn the joyous |
| Tx:13.68 | the crucifixion and the resurrection, between the ego and the Holy | Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy Spirit the decision |
| Tx:13.68 | ego and the Holy Spirit. The ego is the choice for guilt; the Holy | Spirit the decision for guiltlessness. The power of decision is all |
| Tx:13.70 | has no power over the Son of God is the happy lesson the Holy | Spirit teaches and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy to |
| Tx:13.72 | the penalty of guilt in place of all the happy teaching the Holy | Spirit would gladly offer him. |
| Tx:13.74 | of value. Yet because they do not understand their will, the Holy | Spirit quietly understands it for them and gives them what they will |
| Tx:13.76 | no decisions about what it is or where it lies, but ask of the Holy | Spirit everything and leave all decisions to His gentle counsel. |
| Tx:13.77 | define what salvation is and what you would be saved from. The Holy | Spirit knows that all salvation is escape from guilt. You have no |
| Tx:13.77 | this strange distortion of the purity of the Son of God, the Holy | Spirit is your only friend. He is the strong protector of your |
| Tx:13.79 | which no one in this world or Heaven could possibly commit. God's | Spirit teaches only that the “sin” of self-replacement on the throne |
| Tx:13.80 | Say to the Holy | Spirit only, “Decide for me,” and it is done. For His decisions are |
| Tx:13.80 | know when all knowledge lies behind every decision which the Holy | Spirit makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and teach His |
| Tx:13.92 | summer. Only your own volition seems to make deciding hard. The Holy | Spirit will not delay at all in answering your every question what to |
| Tx:14.3 | It does not teach you what you are or what your Father is. The Holy | Spirit, Who remembers this for you, merely teaches you how to remove |
| Tx:14.4 | unlike the way he sees himself. God can communicate only to the Holy | Spirit in your mind because only He shares the knowledge of what you |
| Tx:14.4 | He shares the knowledge of what you are with God. And only the Holy | Spirit can answer God for you, for only He knows what God is. |
| Tx:14.5 | of value here and everything of value there. Listen to the Holy | Spirit and to God through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is no |
| Tx:14.14 | It sees as guilty, and by its condemnation, it would kill. The Holy | Spirit sees only guiltlessness, and in His gentleness, He would |
| Tx:14.17 | The quiet light in which the Holy | Spirit dwells within you is merely perfect openness in which nothing |
| Tx:14.20 | have made for breaking your communication with your Father. The Holy | Spirit reinterprets it as a means of reestablishing what has not been |
| Tx:14.21 | You who made it are but expressing conflict, from which the Holy | Spirit would release you. Leave what you would communicate to Him. He |
| Tx:14.28 | defend itself. Defense is of your making. God knows it not. The Holy | Spirit uses defenses on behalf of truth only because you made them |
| Tx:14.29 | made, must be gently turned to your own good, translated by the Holy | Spirit from means of self-destruction to means of preservation and |
| Tx:14.30 | The Holy | Spirit asks of you but this—bring to Him every secret you have |
| Tx:14.31 | purpose which He shares with you. The single vision which the Holy | Spirit offers you will bring this oneness to your mind with clarity |
| Tx:14.32 | that would hide your glory be brought to the judgment of the Holy | Spirit and there undone. Whom He would save for glory is saved for |
| Tx:14.34 | know God and also this. All this is safe within you, where the Holy | Spirit shines. He shines not in division, but in the meeting place |
| Tx:14.34 | meeting place of the unseparated Father and His Son lies in the Holy | Spirit and in you. All interference in the communication that God |
| Tx:14.40 | you God. The gift which you refused is held by Him in you. His | Spirit holds it there for you. God has not left His altar, though His |
| Tx:14.43 | see no one can fail to understand. It is the message that the Holy | Spirit is holding to the mirror that is in him. He recognizes it |
| Tx:14.50 | no basis at all for ordering your thoughts. This lesson the Holy | Spirit teaches by giving you shining examples to show you that your |
| Tx:14.55 | is for yourself. If you would remember your Father, let the Holy | Spirit order your thoughts and give only the answer with which He |
| Tx:14.56 | As God communicates to the Holy | Spirit in you, so does the Holy Spirit translate His communications |
| Tx:14.56 | As God communicates to the Holy Spirit in you, so does the Holy | Spirit translate His communications through you so you can understand |
| Tx:14.56 | all. Nothing lives in secret, and what you would hide from the Holy | Spirit is nothing. Every interpretation you would lay upon a brother |
| Tx:14.56 | you would lay upon a brother is senseless. Let the Holy | Spirit show him to you and teach you both his love and need for love. |
| Tx:14.63 | in one form or another. And each bright lesson, with which the Holy | Spirit will replace the dark ones you do not accept and hide, teaches |
| Tx:14.68 | certain aspects of your lives alone that the guidance of the Holy | Spirit is limited. Thus would you make Him undependable and use this |
| Tx:14.69 | Do you think that what the Holy | Spirit would have you give He would withhold from you? You have no |
| Tx:14.73 | the ego for anything. It is only this that you need do. The Holy | Spirit will, of Himself, fill every mind that so makes room for Him. |
| Tx:15.2 | teaching are far in the future. This is not so. For the Holy | Spirit uses time in His own way and is not bound by it. [Time is His |
| Tx:15.2 | time to support its belief in destruction. The ego, like the Holy | Spirit, uses time to convince you of the inevitability of the goal |
| Tx:15.2 | To the ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to the Holy | Spirit the goal is life, which has no end. |
| Tx:15.8 | The Holy | Spirit teaches thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the ego has |
| Tx:15.8 | understanding the present, because you are afraid of it. The Holy | Spirit leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell. For the |
| Tx:15.8 | leads as steadily to Heaven as the ego drives to hell. For the Holy | Spirit, Who knows only the present, uses it to undo the fear by which |
| Tx:15.9 | The Holy | Spirit would undo all of this now. Fear is not of the present but |
| Tx:15.12 | long is an instant?” Could you not give so short a time to the Holy | Spirit for your salvation? He asks no more, for He has no need of |
| Tx:15.13 | You will never give this holy instant to the Holy | Spirit on behalf of your release while you are unwilling to give it |
| Tx:15.13 | to your willingness to be released and to offer time to the Holy | Spirit for His use of it. How long is an instant? It is as short for |
| Tx:15.13 | enslaved by time and thus make time their friend for them. The Holy | Spirit gives their blessed instant to you through your giving it. As |
| Tx:15.15 | Time is your friend if you leave it to the Holy | Spirit to use. He needs but very little to restore God's whole power |
| Tx:15.15 | release. Offer the miracle of the holy instant through the Holy | Spirit and leave His giving it to you to Him. |
| Tx:15.16 | unless God is bound, you cannot be. An instant offered to the Holy | Spirit is offered to God on your behalf, and in that instant you will |
| Tx:15.16 | instant, you will let go all your past learning, and the Holy | Spirit will quickly offer you the whole lesson of peace. What can |
| Tx:15.19 | are far stronger and much more compelling witnesses for the Holy | Spirit. And they support His strength. It is, therefore, your choice |
| Tx:15.19 | is, therefore, your choice whether they support the ego or the Holy | Spirit in you. And you will know which you have chosen by their |
| Tx:15.19 | their reactions. A Son of God who has been released through the Holy | Spirit in a brother, if the release is complete, is always |
| Tx:15.19 | this, you have not given one single instant completely to the Holy | Spirit. For when you have, you will be sure you have. You will be |
| Tx:15.20 | you hear one witness whom you have wholly released through the Holy | Spirit. And then you will doubt no more. The holy instant has not yet |
| Tx:15.25 | There is no doubt about what your function is, for the Holy | Spirit knows what it is. There is no doubt about its magnitude, for |
| Tx:15.26 | the ego or host to God?” Let this question be asked you by the Holy | Spirit in you every time you make a decision. For every decision you |
| Tx:15.27 | hell and will bring you awareness of what you decided for. The Holy | Spirit can hold your magnitude, clean of all littleness, clearly and |
| Tx:15.48 | In His function as Interpreter of what you have made, the Holy | Spirit uses special relationships, which you have chosen to support |
| Tx:15.49 | The Holy | Spirit knows no one is special. Yet He also perceives that you have |
| Tx:15.50 | you would substitute for another has not been offered to the Holy | Spirit for His use. There is no substitute for love. If you would |
| Tx:15.52 | relationships, and although this is not so in Heaven, the Holy | Spirit knows how to bring a touch of Heaven to them here. In the holy |
| Tx:15.53 | built by which to judge your brothers. Once this is gone, the Holy | Spirit substitutes His frame of reference for it. His frame of |
| Tx:15.54 | have been told to offer miracles as Christ directs and let the Holy | Spirit bring to you those who are seeking you. Yet in the holy |
| Tx:15.62 | light behind it can have faith in love without fear. Yet the Holy | Spirit gives you this faith because He offered it to me and I |
| Tx:15.62 | will be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me the Holy | Spirit gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let no need that you |
| Tx:15.69 | that binds the Son of God to guilt, and it is this chain the Holy | Spirit would remove from his holy mind. For the chain of savagery |
| Tx:15.69 | at the relationships which the ego contrives and let the Holy | Spirit judge them truly. For it is certain that, if you will look at |
| Tx:15.75 | feel guilty about communication and will be afraid to hear the Holy | Spirit, recognizing in His voice your own need to communicate. The |
| Tx:15.75 | recognizing in His voice your own need to communicate. The Holy | Spirit cannot teach through fear. And how can He communicate with you |
| Tx:15.79 | The holy instant does not replace the need for learning, for the Holy | Spirit must not leave you as your Teacher until the holy instant has |
| Tx:15.83 | The Holy | Spirit is God's attempt to free you of what He does not understand. |
| Tx:15.83 | And because of the Source of the attempt, it will succeed. The Holy | Spirit asks you to respond as God does, for He would teach you what |
| Tx:15.84 | The Holy | Spirit knows that it is not understandable, and yet He understands it |
| Tx:15.85 | your perception of your brothers to the body, so would the Holy | Spirit release your vision and let you see the Great Rays shining |
| Tx:15.89 | If you would but let the Holy | Spirit tell you of the love of God for you and the need your |
| Tx:15.90 | of God's Son to what interferes with his release and what the Holy | Spirit must undo to set him free. For his belief in limits has |
| Tx:15.91 | and your thoughts will be as free as God's. As you let the Holy | Spirit teach you how to use the body only for purposes of |
| Tx:15.92 | my birth into the world. Yet you know not how to do it. Let the Holy | Spirit teach you, and let me celebrate your birth through Him. The |
| Tx:15.103 | This Christmas, give the Holy | Spirit everything that would hurt you. Let yourself be healed |
| Tx:15.111 | I give you to the Holy | Spirit as part of myself. I know that you will be released, unless I |
| Tx:16.1 | is shared. The capacity to empathize is very useful to the Holy | Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His way. [His way is very |
| Tx:16.2 | you may be sure—if you will merely sit quietly by and let the Holy | Spirit relate through you, you will empathize with strength and both |
| Tx:16.7 | because they contain an element of specialness. Only the Holy | Spirit recognizes foolish needs as well as real ones. And He will |
| Tx:16.13 | as one has been made. When you have made this joining as the Holy | Spirit bids you and have offered it to Him to use as He knows how, |
| Tx:16.14 | Yet this is your position. You would have perfect faith in the Holy | Spirit and in the effects of His teaching if you were not afraid to |
| Tx:16.19 | makes for happiness. You have never given any problem to the Holy | Spirit He has not solved for you, nor will you ever do so. You have |
| Tx:16.25 | Your teaching has already done this, for the Holy | Spirit is part of you. Created by God, He left neither God nor His |
| Tx:16.25 | Self you do not know. And they communicate to you through the Holy | Spirit, and their power and gratitude to you for their creation they |
| Tx:16.41 | forget the truth in you than you can fail to remember it. The Holy | Spirit is the bridge to Him, made from your willingness to unite with |
| Tx:16.47 | can be no disagreement on this, because both the ego and the Holy | Spirit accept it. They are, however, in complete disagreement on what |
| Tx:16.47 | on what completion is and how it is accomplished. The Holy | Spirit knows that completion lies first in union and then in the |
| Tx:16.60 | unable to find you and comfort you. There is a way in which the Holy | Spirit asks your help if you would have His. The holy instant is His |
| Tx:16.69 | The Holy | Spirit asks only this little help of you. Whenever your thoughts |
| Tx:16.75 | Against the ego's insane notion of salvation, the Holy | Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the Holy |
| Tx:16.75 | Spirit gently lays the holy instant. We said before that the Holy | Spirit must teach through comparisons and uses opposites to point to |
| Tx:16.76 | not attempt this long. In the holy instant, the power of the Holy | Spirit will prevail because you joined Him. The illusions you bring |
| Tx:16.77 | will always be exactly as he was created. And everything the Holy | Spirit teaches you is to remind you that you have received what God |
| Tx:17.7 | will see the Son of God. You will behold the beauty which the Holy | Spirit loves to look upon and which He thanks the Father for. He was |
| Tx:17.13 | trembling with readiness to be given you. The eagerness of the Holy | Spirit to give you this is so intense He would not wait, although He |
| Tx:17.19 | and join with fantasies in uninterrupted “bliss.” How can the Holy | Spirit bring His interpretation of the body as a means of |
| Tx:17.21 | The Holy | Spirit wills only to make His resolutions complete and perfect, and |
| Tx:17.23 | This is the only part of the relationship the Holy | Spirit sees because He knows that only this is true. You have made |
| Tx:17.28 | it is possible to make happy. We have said repeatedly that the Holy | Spirit would not deprive you of your special relationships but would |
| Tx:17.29 | relationship was the ego's answer to the creation of the Holy | Spirit, Who was God's answer to the separation. For although the ego |
| Tx:17.30 | system which the ego evolved to protect the separation from the Holy | Spirit was in response to the gift with which God blessed it and by |
| Tx:17.30 | itself the truth about everything. And the truth is that the Holy | Spirit is in close relationship with you because in Him is your |
| Tx:17.30 | The relationship with Him has never been broken because the Holy | Spirit has not been separate from anyone since the separation. And |
| Tx:17.36 | the love of God, the tears of Christ, and the joy of His eternal | Spirit are marshaled to defend you from your own attack. For you |
| Tx:17.44 | This is the first result of offering the relationship to the Holy | Spirit to use for His purposes. |
| Tx:17.45 | This invitation is accepted immediately, and the Holy | Spirit wastes no time in introducing the practical results of asking |
| Tx:17.48 | the rewards of faith are being introduced. If you believed the Holy | Spirit was there to accept the relationship, why would you now not |
| Tx:17.53 | You undertook together to invite the Holy | Spirit into your relationship. He could not have entered otherwise. |
| Tx:17.61 | for the ego believes the situation brings the experience. The Holy | Spirit knows that the situation is as the goal determines it and is |
| Tx:17.62 | Where the goal of truth is set, there faith must be. The Holy | Spirit sees the situation as a whole. The goal establishes the fact |
| Tx:17.72 | calls for faith, and faith makes room for truth.] When the Holy | Spirit changed the purpose of your relationship by exchanging yours |
| Tx:17.75 | This simple courtesy is all the Holy | Spirit asks of you. Let truth be what it is. Do not intrude upon it, |
| Tx:18.1 | perceive at once how much at variance this is with the goal the Holy | Spirit has given you and would accomplish for you. To substitute is |
| Tx:18.2 | The Holy | Spirit never uses substitutes. Where the ego perceives one person as |
| Tx:18.2 | the ego perceives one person as a replacement for another, the Holy | Spirit sees them joined and indivisible. He does not judge between |
| Tx:18.2 | Nothing can come between what God has joined and what the Holy | Spirit sees as one. But everything seems to come between the |
| Tx:18.8 | the living God you never left and Who never left you. The Holy | Spirit takes you gently by the hand and retraces with you your mad |
| Tx:18.9 | here, nor ever will. Here is the radiant truth to which the Holy | Spirit has committed your relationship. Let Him bring it here, where |
| Tx:18.20 | The Holy | Spirit, ever practical in His wisdom, accepts your dreams and uses |
| Tx:18.20 | dreams of fear are changed to happy dreams. That is what the Holy | Spirit does in your special relationship. He does not destroy it nor |
| Tx:18.21 | who come within your sight. Through it, the blessing which the Holy | Spirit has laid upon it will be extended. Think not that He has |
| Tx:18.23 | relationship meet its conditions. In your relationship, the Holy | Spirit has gently laid the real world—the world of happy dreams |
| Tx:18.32 | you realize that you cannot do more. Do not attempt to give the Holy | Spirit what He does not ask, or you will add the ego unto Him and |
| Tx:18.45 | is still a special relationship. Yet it is very useful to the Holy | Spirit, Who has a special function here. It will become the happy |
| Tx:18.46 | is threatened by anything, stop instantly and offer the Holy | Spirit your willingness in spite of fear to let Him exchange this |
| Tx:18.48 | it now. And so I choose this instant as the one to offer to the Holy | Spirit, that His blessing may descend on us and keep us both in peace. |
| Tx:18.52 | of the body, it cannot change its function from what the Holy | Spirit establishes it to be. The body was not made by love. Yet love |
| Tx:18.69 | of the body ceases to demand attention. Into this place the Holy | Spirit comes and there abides. He will remain when you forget and the |
| Tx:18.84 | the little thought that seems split off and separate, which the Holy | Spirit needs. The rest is fully in God's keeping and needs no guide. |
| Tx:18.85 | has not lost it, but you have lost sight of Heaven. Let the Holy | Spirit remove it from the withered kingdom in which you set it off, |
| Tx:18.87 | Yet God can bring you there if you are willing to follow the Holy | Spirit through seeming terror, trusting Him not to abandon you and |
| Tx:19.2 | is healed because you offered faith to him, giving him to the Holy | Spirit and releasing him from every demand your ego would make of |
| Tx:19.2 | of him. Thus do you see him free, and in this vision does the Holy | Spirit share. And since He shares it, He has given it, and so He |
| Tx:19.15 | little kingdoms barren and separate, so will faith help the Holy | Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy garden which He would |
| Tx:19.27 | for it is sin that calls for punishment, not error. The Holy | Spirit cannot punish sin. Mistakes He recognizes and would correct |
| Tx:19.28 | that you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In time the Holy | Spirit clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes. On this you |
| Tx:19.38 | before it. This will you do, for nothing undertaken with the Holy | Spirit remains unfinished. You can indeed be sure of nothing you see |
| Tx:19.38 | nothing you see outside you, but of this you can be sure: the Holy | Spirit asks that you offer Him a resting-place where you will rest in |
| Tx:19.39 | looking where He is and not apart from Him. You cannot see the Holy | Spirit, but you can see your brothers truly. And the light in them |
| Tx:19.39 | for seeing then? When God has taken the last step Himself, the Holy | Spirit will gather all your thanks and gratitude which you have |
| Tx:19.43 | apart from each other nor apart from the one you asked the Holy | Spirit to share with you. The little wall will fall away so quietly |
| Tx:19.46 | briefly upon anything, for it has no purpose now. Before the Holy | Spirit entered to abide with you, it seemed to have a mighty purpose; |
| Tx:19.53 | The Holy | Spirit has given you love's messengers to send instead of those you |
| Tx:19.54 | If you send forth only the messengers the Holy | Spirit gives you, wanting no messages but theirs, you will see fear |
| Tx:19.54 | ask love's messengers to remove from it and see it still. The Holy | Spirit has given you His messengers to send to each other and return |
| Tx:19.62 | Is it a sacrifice to be removed from what can suffer? The Holy | Spirit does not demand you sacrifice the hope of the body's pleasure; |
| Tx:19.62 | can it bring you fear of pain. Pain is the only “sacrifice” the Holy | Spirit asks, and this He would remove. |
| Tx:19.68 | Your little part is but to give the Holy | Spirit the whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the peace He gave |
| Tx:19.73 | is given by the sender and the receiver. The ego and the Holy | Spirit both recognize this, and both also recognize that here the |
| Tx:19.73 | recognize that here the sender and receiver are the same. The Holy | Spirit tells you this with joy. The ego hides it, for it would keep |
| Tx:19.76 | is offered must also be received to be truly given. For the Holy | Spirit, too, is a communication medium, receiving from the Father and |
| Tx:19.76 | and offering His messages unto the Son. Like the ego, the Holy | Spirit is both the sender and the receiver. For what is sent through |
| Tx:19.77 | To you in whose special relationship the Holy | Spirit entered, it is given to release and be released from the |
| Tx:19.86 | you. Your newborn purpose is nursed by angels, cherished by the Holy | Spirit, and protected by God Himself. It needs not your protection; |
| Tx:19.94 | it is with this. The desire to get rid of peace and drive the Holy | Spirit from you fades in the presence of the quiet recognition that |
| Tx:19.94 | you love Him. The exaltation of the body is given up in favor of the | Spirit, which you love as you could never love the body. And the |
| Tx:19.102 | of you is one who offers you the chalice of Atonement, for the Holy | Spirit is in him. Would you hold his sins against him or accept his |
| Tx:19.106 | separate in death. Behold the gift of freedom that I gave the Holy | Spirit for both of you. And be you free together, as you offer to the |
| Tx:19.106 | for both of you. And be you free together, as you offer to the Holy | Spirit this same gift. And giving it, receive it of Him in return for |
| Tx:20.11 | of illusion that God Himself could give. For what God gave the Holy | Spirit, you have received. The Son of God looks unto you for his |
| Tx:20.22 | a purpose, but he will not remain before the shining light the Holy | Spirit offered and you accepted. For there the stranger is made |
| Tx:20.28 | at all. Power is of God, given by Him and reawakened by the Holy | Spirit, Who knows that as you give, you gain. He gives no power to |
| Tx:20.28 | and misery and pain. These things have not occurred because the Holy | Spirit sees them not and gives no power to their seeming source. Thus |
| Tx:20.28 | you free of them. Being without illusion of what you are, the Holy | Spirit merely gives everything to God, Who has already given and |
| Tx:20.29 | so it is with yours. [Salvation is a lesson in giving, as the Holy | Spirit interprets it.] It is the reawakening of the laws of God in |
| Tx:20.35 | function that you would fulfill, there will be nothing else the Holy | Spirit will not arrange for you without your effort. |
| Tx:20.41 | little use to you as it is to him. When it is used only as the Holy | Spirit teaches, it has no function, for minds need not the body to |
| Tx:20.44 | Be comforted and feel the Holy | Spirit watching over you in love and perfect confidence in what He |
| Tx:20.49 | idolatry. Here it is “safe,” for here love cannot enter. The Holy | Spirit does not build His temples where love can never be. Would He |
| Tx:20.51 | escaped the body. Where you are the body cannot enter, for the Holy | Spirit has set His temple there. |
| Tx:20.54 | relationship the Son of God has with his Father in reality. The Holy | Spirit rests within it in the certainty it will endure forever. Its |
| Tx:20.60 | To obtain the goal, the Holy | Spirit indeed asked little. He asks no more to give the means as |
| Tx:20.65 | is the sign that you lack vision and have denied the means the Holy | Spirit offers you to serve His purpose. How can a holy relationship |
| Tx:20.69 | it with real desire and sincerity of purpose, shared with the Holy | Spirit and at one with Him on what salvation is. Be willing, then, to |
| Tx:20.70 | The Holy | Spirit guarantees that what God willed and gave you shall be yours. |
| Tx:20.70 | be preferred and chosen to replace the holy home the Holy | Spirit offers, where He will dwell with you? |
| Tx:20.76 | all or merely judged against. Vision is the means by which the Holy | Spirit translates your nightmares into happy dreams; your wild |
| Tx:21.13 | transformed to joy; the little gift you offer to the Holy | Spirit for which He gives you everything; the very little on which |
| Tx:21.17 | for God for you. This is the little gift you offer to the Holy | Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give yourself. For by this |
| Tx:21.22 | The Holy | Spirit can give you faith in holiness and vision to see it easily |
| Tx:21.29 | the accepted purpose of the relationship. And that is why the Holy | Spirit must change its purpose to make it useful to Him and harmless |
| Tx:21.32 | by which the goal of holiness is reached. Through them the Holy | Spirit leads you to the real world and away from all illusions where |
| Tx:21.34 | The Holy | Spirit has a use for all the means for sin by which you sought to |
| Tx:21.34 | choose among your brothers and seek for sin with them. The Holy | Spirit sees perception as a means to teach you that the vision of a |
| Tx:21.37 | Those who believe in sin must think the Holy | Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how they think their purpose |
| Tx:21.37 | is how they think their purpose is accomplished. Brothers, the Holy | Spirit knows that sacrifice brings nothing. He makes no bargains. And |
| Tx:21.39 | Think you the Holy | Spirit is concerned with this? He gives not what it is His purpose to |
| Tx:21.41 | The Holy | Spirit will never teach you that you are sinful. Errors He will |
| Tx:21.46 | There is no inconsistency in what the Holy | Spirit teaches. This is the reasoning of the sane. You have perceived |
| Tx:21.53 | being eternal. You must have set aside a place in which the Holy | Spirit can abide and where He is. He must have been there since the |
| Tx:21.66 | in order to escape from reason. What madness would conceal, the Holy | Spirit still holds out for everyone to look upon with gladness. |
| Tx:21.82 | if you are willing to exchange the world of sin for what the Holy | Spirit sees, since it is this the world of sin denies. And therefore |
| Tx:22.20 | Therefore, says reason, if escape from guilt was given to the Holy | Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom nothing He wills can be |
| Tx:22.26 | given to your holy relationship is there. For what He gave the Holy | Spirit to give to you, He gave. Would you not look upon the savior |
| Tx:22.46 | in sin needs great defense and at enormous cost. All that the Holy | Spirit offers must be defended against and sacrificed. For sin is |
| Tx:22.52 | even in this confusion, so profound it cannot be described, the Holy | Spirit waits in gentle patience, as certain of the outcome as He is |
| Tx:22.56 | in Heaven through himself? The gentle service that you give the Holy | Spirit is service to yourself. You who are now His means must love |
| Tx:22.58 | this.] Accept this one and serve it willingly, for what the Holy | Spirit does with the gifts you give each other, to whom He offers |
| Tx:22.63 | because you can attack you must be different. Yet does the Holy | Spirit explain this differently. Because you are not different, you |
| Tx:23.16 | is given those who would remember Him. Over His home the Holy | Spirit watches, sure that its peace can never be disturbed. |
| Tx:23.50 | the miracles you have the power to extend to all. Yet does the Holy | Spirit understand how to increase your little gifts and make them |
| Tx:24.15 | really are, how can you know the truth? What answer that the Holy | Spirit gives can reach you, when it is your specialness to which you |
| Tx:24.52 | God's Son is all the world is for. That is the only purpose the Holy | Spirit sees in it and thus the only one it has. Until you see the |
| Tx:25.8 | reach to you through what you understand. Father and Son and Holy | Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in truth. Christ |
| Tx:25.8 | in the part of you that shares His Father's Will. The Holy | Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad desire to be separate, |
| Tx:25.9 | The Holy | Spirit serves Christ's purpose in your mind, so that the aim of |
| Tx:25.17 | The Holy | Spirit is the frame God set around the part of Him that you would see |
| Tx:25.21 | giving it you learn to understand His gift to you. And give the Holy | Spirit what He offers unto the Father and the Son alike. Nothing has |
| Tx:25.30 | must have been wrong. And thus is change made possible. The Holy | Spirit too sees what He sees as far beyond the chance of change. But |
| Tx:25.47 | is the only function meaningful in time. It is the means the Holy | Spirit uses to translate specialness from sin into salvation. |
| Tx:25.49 | The Holy | Spirit needs your special function that His may be fulfilled. Think |
| Tx:25.49 | easily and well. The Son of God can make no choice the Holy | Spirit cannot employ on his behalf and not against himself. Only in |
| Tx:25.50 | And if the Holy | Spirit can commute each sentence that you laid upon yourself into a |
| Tx:25.54 | The Holy | Spirit has the power to change the whole foundation of the world you |
| Tx:25.61 | rock on which salvation rests, the vantage point from which the Holy | Spirit gives meaning and direction to the plan in which your special |
| Tx:25.63 | The Holy | Spirit can use all that you give to Him for your salvation. But He |
| Tx:25.68 | their own belief in justice must entail. And so they fear the Holy | Spirit and perceive the “wrath” of God in Him. [They are unjust |
| Tx:25.69 | think the loss of sin a curse. And flee [the blessing of] the Holy | Spirit as if He were a messenger from hell sent from above in |
| Tx:25.74 | cares not who pays the cost of sin, so it be paid, the Holy | Spirit heeds not who looks on innocence at last, provided it is seen |
| Tx:25.74 | sees truly. Simple justice asks no more. Of each one does the Holy | Spirit ask if he will be that one, so justice may return to love and |
| Tx:25.75 | his sinlessness and not his sin. How little need you give the Holy | Spirit that simple justice may be given you! |
| Tx:25.77 | holy Son. This is the only justice Heaven knows, and all the Holy | Spirit brings to earth. Your special function shows you nothing else |
| Tx:25.80 | Be certain any answer to a problem the Holy | Spirit solves will always be one in which no one loses. And this must |
| Tx:25.80 | harder to resolve, and more unfair. It is impossible the Holy | Spirit could see unfairness as a resolution. To Him, what is unfair |
| Tx:25.82 | as God knows it, and as knowledge is reflected in the sight the Holy | Spirit gives. |
| Tx:25.84 | of healing and deliverance and peace. To give a problem to the Holy | Spirit to solve for you means that you want it solved. To keep it for |
| Tx:26.6 | reality. Nor can you lose what you would sacrifice nor keep the Holy | Spirit from His task of showing you that it has not been lost. Hear |
| Tx:26.10 | not difficult to understand the reasons why you do not ask the Holy | Spirit to solve all problems for you. He has not greater difficulty |
| Tx:26.11 | The Holy | Spirit offers you release from every problem that you think you have. |
| Tx:26.13 | does injustice to the Son of God and therefore is not true. The Holy | Spirit does not evaluate injustices as great or small or more or |
| Tx:26.15 | call forth will rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the Holy | Spirit be content until it is received by everyone. For what you give |
| Tx:26.33 | who still believe you live in time and know not it is gone, the Holy | Spirit still guides you through the infinitely small and senseless |
| Tx:26.73 | working out can seem to take forever. The change of purpose the Holy | Spirit brought to your relationship has in it all effects that you |
| Tx:26.74 | This is a sacrifice of now, which could not be the cost the Holy | Spirit asks for what He gave without a cost at all. |
| Tx:26.89 | it by rendering it purposeless, without the function that the Holy | Spirit sees. And simple justice has been thus denied to every living |
| Tx:26.90 | a purpose in a futile world. The world is fair because the Holy | Spirit has brought injustice to the light within, and there has all |
| Tx:27.3 | you offer him you show yourself and give it all your faith. The Holy | Spirit offers you to give to him a picture of yourself in which there |
| Tx:27.5 | and loved. Now in the hands made gentle by His touch, the Holy | Spirit lays a picture of a different you. It is a picture of a body |
| Tx:27.12 | This thing without a purpose cannot hide the function that the Holy | Spirit gave. Let, then, its purpose and your function both be |
| Tx:27.20 | The “cost” of your serenity is his. This is the “price” the Holy | Spirit and the world interpret differently. The world perceives it as |
| Tx:27.20 | statement of the “fact” that your salvation sacrifices his. The Holy | Spirit knows your healing is the witness unto his and cannot be apart |
| Tx:27.21 | to prevent a shift of balance in the sacrifice. How could the Holy | Spirit be deterred an instant, even less, to reason with an argument |
| Tx:27.26 | presence is perceived as all of you. To this remaining half the Holy | Spirit must represent the other half until you recognize it is the |
| Tx:27.27 | cannot be shared, and so it cannot be the function which the Holy | Spirit sees as His. And you can rest assured that He will not fulfill |
| Tx:27.33 | by which the truth is represented temporarily. It lets the Holy | Spirit make exchange of pictures possible until the time when aids |
| Tx:27.44 | he does not have? And who can share what he denies himself? The Holy | Spirit speaks to you. He does not speak to someone else. Yet by your |
| Tx:27.54 | is a loud, obscuring voice whose shrieks would silence what the Holy | Spirit says and keep His words from your awareness. Pain compels |
| Tx:27.74 | Rest in the Holy | Spirit and allow His gentle dreams to take the place of those you |
| Tx:27.85 | In gentle laughter does the Holy | Spirit perceive the cause and looks not to effects. How else could He |
| Tx:27.87 | The Holy | Spirit will repeat this one inclusive lesson of deliverance until it |
| Tx:28.3 | which is not used to interfere with truth. All things the Holy | Spirit can employ for healing have been given Him, without the |
| Tx:28.4 | The Holy | Spirit can indeed make use of memory, for God Himself is there. Yet |
| Tx:28.8 | This is the Cause the Holy | Spirit has remembered for you, when you would forget. It is not past |
| Tx:28.25 | Like every lesson which the Holy | Spirit requests you learn, the miracle is clear. It demonstrates what |
| Tx:28.43 | The Holy | Spirit is in both your minds, and He is One because there is no gap |
| Tx:28.43 | between them vacant. And the Father comes to join His Son the Holy | Spirit joined. |
| Tx:29.29 | and there is no betrayal but of this. The core of dreams the Holy | Spirit gives is never one of fear. The coverings may not appear to |
| Tx:29.32 | intrude upon the sacred Son of God within. Here is the role the Holy | Spirit gives to you who wait upon the Son of God and would behold him |
| Tx:29.36 | does it seem so hard to share this dream? Because unless the Holy | Spirit gives the dream its function, it was made for hate and will |
| Tx:29.60 | laugh if idols could intrude upon his peace. It is for him the Holy | Spirit speaks and tells you idols have no purpose here. For more than |
| Tx:30.33 | Do you not understand that to oppose the Holy | Spirit is to fight yourself? He tells you but your will; He speaks |
| Tx:30.82 | cannot be that meaning changes constantly and yet is true. The Holy | Spirit looks upon the world as with one purpose, changelessly |
| Tx:31.5 | their learning is the only purpose for your learning skill the Holy | Spirit sees in all the world. His simple lessons in forgiveness have |
| Tx:31.50 | its roads nor realize the way you see yourself. Now must the Holy | Spirit find a way to help you see this concept of the self must be |
| Tx:31.53 | And both would go if either one were ever raised to doubt. The Holy | Spirit does not seek to throw you into panic. So He merely asks if |
| Tx:31.62 | You see the flesh or recognize the | Spirit. There is no compromise between the two. If one is real the |
| Tx:31.62 | depend, for here have you established what you are, as flesh or | Spirit in your own belief. If you choose flesh, you never will escape |
| Tx:31.62 | own reality, for you have chosen that you want it so. But choose the | Spirit, and all Heaven bends to touch your eyes and bless your holy |
| Tx:31.64 | Salvation does not ask that you behold the | Spirit and perceive the body not. It merely asks that this should be |
| Tx:31.67 | Are you a | spirit, deathless and without the promise of corruption and the stain |
| W1:43.1 | of God. His is the realm of knowledge. Yet He has created the Holy | Spirit as the Mediator between perception and knowledge. Without this |
| W1:43.1 | that it will lead to knowledge. That is its function as the Holy | Spirit sees it. Therefore, that is its function in truth. |
| W1:43.2 | to his awareness. Perception has no meaning. Yet does the Holy | Spirit give it a meaning very close to God's. Healed perception |
| W1:64.2 | the purpose of the body itself. Yet we have learned that the Holy | Spirit has another use for all the illusions you have made, and |
| W1:64.2 | made, and therefore He sees another purpose in them. To the Holy | Spirit, the world is a place where you learn to forgive yourself what |
| W1:64.6 | from just this one simple choice. That is the only choice the Holy | Spirit sees. Therefore it is the only choice there is. |
| W1:65.4 | range disciplinary training which your mind needs, so that the Holy | Spirit can use it consistently for the purpose He shares with you. |
| W1:66.2 | The ego does constant battle with the Holy | Spirit on the fundamental question of what your function is. So does |
| W1:66.2 | what your function is. So does it do constant battle with the Holy | Spirit about what your happiness is. It is not a two-way battle. The |
| W1:66.2 | is. It is not a two-way battle. The ego attacks and the Holy | Spirit does not respond. He knows what your function is. He knows |
| W1:66.9 | ego and is made up of illusions. The other is the home of the Holy | Spirit, where truth abides. There are no other guides but these to |
| W1:66.9 | the fear which the ego always engenders and the love which the Holy | Spirit always offers to replace it. |
| W1:75.9 | your forgiveness entitles you to vision. Understand that the Holy | Spirit never fails to give the gift of sight to the forgiving. |
| W1:77.6 | The Holy | Spirit cannot but assure you that your request is granted. The fact |
| W1:78.6 | is more than friend when he is freed to take the holy role the Holy | Spirit has assigned to him. Let him be savior unto you today. Such is |
| W1:78.10 | long for this. He would be free and make his freedom yours. The Holy | Spirit leans from him to you, seeing no separation in God's Son. And |
| W1:78.11 | dark grievances obscure the sight of him. You have allowed the Holy | Spirit to express through him the role God gave Him that you might be |
| W1:78.11 | laid your images aside and looked upon the miracle of love the Holy | Spirit showed you in their place. The world and Heaven join in |
| W1:80.2 | You have recognized your only problem, opening the way for the Holy | Spirit to give you God's answer. You have laid deception aside and |
| W1:90.5 | with the problem, so that they cannot be separated by time. The Holy | Spirit will teach me this if I will let Him. And I will understand it |
| W1:91.9 | are not a body, what are you? You need to be aware of what the Holy | Spirit uses to replace the image of a body in your mind. You need to |
| W1:95.9 | The Holy | Spirit is not delayed in His teaching by your mistakes. He can be |
| W1:96.4 | it has no place in which it could be really part of you. If you are | Spirit, then the body must be meaningless to your reality. |
| W1:96.5 | Spirit makes use of mind as means to find its Self-expression. And | |
| W1:96.5 | as means to find its Self-expression. And the mind which serves the | Spirit is at peace and filled with joy. Its power comes from Spirit, |
| W1:96.5 | the Spirit is at peace and filled with joy. Its power comes from | Spirit, and it is fulfilling happily its function here. Yet mind can |
| W1:96.5 | its function here. Yet mind can also see itself divorced from | Spirit and perceive itself within a body it confuses with itself. |
| W1:96.6 | Yet mind apart from | Spirit cannot think. It has denied its Source of strength and sees |
| W1:96.8 | and they remain within your mind and in the Mind of God. The Holy | Spirit holds salvation in your mind and offers it the way to peace. |
| W1:96.15 | and give it peace. Restored in strength, it will again flow out from | Spirit to the Spirit in all things created by the Spirit as Itself. |
| W1:96.15 | Restored in strength, it will again flow out from Spirit to the | Spirit in all things created by the Spirit as Itself. Your mind will |
| W1:96.15 | flow out from Spirit to the Spirit in all things created by the | Spirit as Itself. Your mind will bless all things. Confusion done, |
| W1:97.2 | who rests in you whose mind has been restored to sanity. You are the | Spirit lovingly endowed with all your Father's love and peace and |
| W1:97.2 | endowed with all your Father's love and peace and joy. You are the | Spirit which completes Himself and shares His function as Creator. He |
| W1:97.4 | You are the | Spirit in whose mind abides the miracle in which all time stands |
| W1:97.5 | which He needs today to help you understand with Him you are the | Spirit that abides in Him, and Which calls through His Voice to every |
| W1:97.6 | The Holy | Spirit will be glad to take five minutes of each hour from your hands |
| W1:97.8 | Begin these happy exercises with the words the Holy | Spirit speaks to you, and let them echo round the world through Him: |
| W1:97.9 | Spirit am I, a holy Son of God, free of all limits, safe and healed | |
| W1:97.10 | Expressed through you, the Holy | Spirit will accept this gift which you received of Him, increase its |
| W1:97.11 | gladly to Him. And He will speak to you, reminding you that you are | Spirit, one with Him and God, your brothers and your Self. Listen for |
| W1:97.12 | if you yield to the belief that you are something else. The Holy | Spirit gives you peace today. Receive His words, and offer them to |
| W1:99.5 | The Holy | Spirit holds this plan of God exactly as it was received of Him |
| W1:99.5 | because of your belief that time is real. Unshaken does the Holy | Spirit look on what you see—on sin and pain and death, on grief and |
| W1:R3.6 | is in your mind? Have faith in these reviews, the means the Holy | Spirit uses will not fail. The wisdom of your mind will come to your |
| W1:114.2 | [97] I am | Spirit. I am the Son of God. No body can contain my spirit nor impose |
| W1:114.2 | [97] I am Spirit. I am the Son of God. No body can contain my | spirit nor impose on me a limitation God created not. |
| W1:114.5 | I am | spirit. |
| W1:131.17 | You cannot fail today. There walks with you the | Spirit Heaven sent you that you might approach this door some day and |
| W1:137.9 | a world where sadness cannot enter, are the means by which the Holy | Spirit urges you to follow Him. His gentle lessons teach how easily |
| W1:140.3 | The happy dreams the Holy | Spirit brings are different from the dreaming of the world, where one |
| W1:158.5 | His are joined in knowledge. Yet there is a vision which the Holy | Spirit sees because the mind of Christ beholds it too. |
| W1:161.3 | it is specifics we must use in practicing. We give them to the Holy | Spirit that He may employ them for a purpose which is different from |
| W1:184.11 | the world of darkness. Yet accept them not as your reality. The Holy | Spirit uses all of them, but He does not forget Creation has One |
| W1:193.9 | These are the words the Holy | Spirit speaks in all your tribulations, all your pain, all suffering |
| W1:198.12 | unveiled at last in this one dream. This is the gift the Holy | Spirit holds for you from God your Father. Let today be celebrated |
| W1:199.2 | The mind that serves the Holy | Spirit is unlimited forever, in all ways, beyond the laws of time and |
| W1:199.4 | disappears because you have no need of it except the need the Holy | Spirit sees. For this, the body will appear as useful form for what |
| W1:199.6 | The Holy | Spirit is the home of minds that seek for freedom. In Him they find |
| W1:199.6 | it is a worthy servant of the freedom which the mind within the Holy | Spirit seeks. |
| W1:199.7 | they are enslaved within a body. Be you free, so that the Holy | Spirit can make use of your escape from bondage to set free the many |

| Tx:6.31 | The perfect equality of the Holy | Spirit's perception is the counterpart of the perfect equality of |
| Tx:6.72 | then, is the undoing of the getting concept. Accordingly, the Holy | Spirit's first lesson was “to have, give all to all.” We said that |
| Tx:6.74 | mind in the thinker. Meanwhile, the increasing clarity of the Holy | Spirit's Voice makes it impossible for the learner not to listen. For |
| Tx:6.76 | change it. As you begin to realize the quiet power of the Holy | Spirit's Voice and its perfect consistency, it must dawn on your |
| Tx:6.84 | what you can project with perfect safety. Therefore, the Holy | Spirit's third lesson is: |
| Tx:7.16 | The Holy | Spirit's purpose in translating is naturally exactly the opposite. He |
| Tx:7.22 | to the learning. You could not have a better example of the Holy | Spirit's unified purpose than this course. The Holy Spirit has taken |
| Tx:7.36 | The ego's goal is as unified as the Holy | Spirit's, and it is because of this that their goals can never be |
| Tx:7.39 | are so apparent that they need no elaboration here, but the Holy | Spirit's decision to use the body only for communication has such a |
| Tx:7.41 | develop and must develop if he is to be healed. Healing is the Holy | Spirit's form of communication and the only one He knows. He |
| Tx:7.68 | unchangeable, no real conflict of will is possible. This is the Holy | Spirit's perfectly consistent teaching. |
| Tx:7.101 | what is joyful and are in fact very apt to confuse the two. The Holy | Spirit's main function is to teach you to tell them apart. However |
| Tx:8.10 | with you. His Voice teaches only His Will, but that is not the Holy | Spirit's lesson because that is what you are. The lesson is that your |
| Tx:8.13 | The Holy | Spirit's teaching takes only one direction and has only one goal. His |
| Tx:8.59 | can be put. To use the body unnaturally is to lose sight of the Holy | Spirit's purpose and thus to confuse the goal of His curriculum. |
| Tx:8.60 | In fact, it is ultimately why the world is depressing. The Holy | Spirit's curriculum is never depressing, because it is a curriculum |
| Tx:8.78 | except truth. When you lay the ego aside, it will be gone. The Holy | Spirit's Voice is as loud as your willingness to listen. It cannot be |
| Tx:8.83 | you awaken joyously have you utilized sleep according to the Holy | Spirit's purpose. You can indeed be “drugged by sleep,” but this is |
| Tx:8.89 | The unification of purpose, then, is the Holy | Spirit's only way of healing. This is because it is the only level at |
| Tx:8.93 | it remains available but cannot help you. When we said that the Holy | Spirit's function is to sort out the true from the false in your |
| Tx:8.111 | words true and making you able to hear them. His words are the Holy | Spirit's answer to you. Is your faith in him strong enough to let you |
| Tx:9.8 | to want this, and for this all learning was made. This is the Holy | Spirit's good use of an ability which you do not need, but which you |

| Tx:9.40 | Its evaluation of you, however, is the exact opposite of the Holy | Spirit's, because the ego does not love you. It is unaware of what |
| Tx:9.41 | evaluations are, because you do not understand how lofty the Holy | Spirit's perception of you really is. He is not deceived by anything |
| Tx:10.50 | be accomplished, and God's purpose can not. According to the Holy | Spirit's teaching, only God's purpose is accomplishment, and it is |
| Tx:10.54 | perception are, and would have to be, the exact opposite of the Holy | Spirit's. The ego focuses on error and overlooks truth. It makes real |

| Tx:11.13 | reality than by answering the appeal for it by giving it? The Holy | Spirit's interpretation of fear does dispel it, for the awareness of |
| Tx:11.46 | The Holy | Spirit's love is your strength, for yours is divided and therefore |
| Tx:11.56 | is for all who cannot see. To open the eyes of the blind is the Holy | Spirit's mission, for He knows that they have not lost their vision |
| Tx:11.58 | holding out the Father's love to you in the quiet light of the Holy | Spirit's blessing. For the Holy Spirit will lead everyone home to his |
| Tx:11.59 | in all situations, the transfer of your training under the Holy | Spirit's guidance increases and becomes generalized. Gradually you |
| Tx:11.64 | to you as its presence becomes manifest through you. Do the Holy | Spirit's work, for you share in His function. As your function in |
| Tx:11.65 | is the destruction of peace, a goal in direct opposition to the Holy | Spirit's purpose. You see what you expect, and you expect what you |
| Tx:11.75 | That is why the undoing of guilt is an essential part of the Holy | Spirit's teaching. For as long as you feel guilty, you are listening |
| Tx:12.17 | not crucified. Here is both his pain and his healing, for the Holy | Spirit's vision is merciful, and His remedy is quick. Do not hide |
| Tx:12.29 | be, and the present is without meaning. It is evident that the Holy | Spirit's perception of time is the exact opposite of the ego's. The |
| Tx:12.42 | He sees for you as your witness to the real world. He is the Holy | Spirit's manifestation, looking always on the real world and calling |
| Tx:13.39 | from accomplishment. Whatever your reactions to the Holy | Spirit's Voice may be, whatever voice you choose to listen to, |
| Tx:13.62 | conditions of knowledge in the Kingdom. All this lies in the Holy | Spirit's plan to free you from the past and open up the way to |
| Tx:14.23 | The Holy | Spirit's function is entirely communication. He therefore must remove |
| Tx:14.38 | together of truth and illusion, of the ego to God, is the Holy | Spirit's only function. Keep not your making from your Father, for |
| Tx:14.50 | by judgment. [Therefore, it is not your function, but the Holy | Spirit's.] It will seem difficult for you to learn that you have no |
| Tx:14.52 | The only judgment involved at all is the Holy | Spirit's one division into two categories—one of love and the other |
| Tx:15.2 | your belief that this takes time, and that the results of the Holy | Spirit's teaching are far in the future. This is not so. For the Holy |
| Tx:15.10 | takes no time at all to be what you are. Begin to practice the Holy | Spirit's use of time as a teaching aid to happiness and peace. Take |
| Tx:15.42 | interferes with it go forever?” If the answer is no, then the Holy | Spirit's readiness to give it to you is not enough to make it yours, |
| Tx:15.44 | to protect the thoughts you would keep unto yourself. Let the Holy | Spirit's purity shine them away and bring all your awareness to the |
| Tx:15.45 | The holy instant is the Holy | Spirit's most useful learning device for teaching you love's meaning. |
| Tx:15.53 | of reference for it. His frame of reference is simply God. The Holy | Spirit's timelessness lies only here. For in the holy instant, free |
| Tx:15.56 | part of a relationship and find peace within it. Under the Holy | Spirit's teaching, all relationships are seen as total commitments, |
| Tx:15.77 | communication as surely as damnation lies in guilt. It is the Holy | Spirit's teaching function to instruct those who believe that |
| Tx:15.92 | time nor season means anything in eternity. But here it is the Holy | Spirit's function to use them both, though not as the ego uses them. |
| Tx:17.57 | The practical application of the Holy | Spirit's purpose is extremely simple, but it is unequivocal. In fact |
| Tx:17.57 | this it is apparent that it must be clear. The setting of the Holy | Spirit's goal is general. Now He will work with you to make it |
| Tx:17.60 | noticeable that this approach has brought you closer to the Holy | Spirit's sorting out of truth and falsity. The true becomes what can |
| Tx:17.62 | requires faith. Faith is implicit in the acceptance of the Holy | Spirit's purpose, and this faith is all-inclusive. Where the goal of |
| Tx:17.70 | The power set in you in whom the Holy | Spirit's goal has been established is so far beyond your little |
| Tx:17.73 | in God must be a dream. You whose relationship shares the Holy | Spirit's goal are set apart from loneliness because the truth has |
| Tx:17.74 | of what every situation is meant to be. The meaning which the Holy | Spirit's purpose has given it is also given to every situation. It |
| Tx:17.76 | faithlessness is laid aside unused. And then the power of the Holy | Spirit's purpose is free to use instead. This power instantly |
| Tx:18.28 | Your desire is now in complete accord with all the power of the Holy | Spirit's will. No little, faltering footsteps that you may take can |
| Tx:18.39 | it is not personally insulting that your contribution and the Holy | Spirit's are so extremely disproportionate. You are still convinced |
| Tx:18.41 | have no meaning. The holy instant, your holy relationship, the Holy | Spirit's teaching, and all the means by which salvation is |
| Tx:18.42 | Never attempt to overlook your guilt before you ask the Holy | Spirit's help. That is His function. Your part is only to offer Him a |
| Tx:18.44 | to understand. You do not even realize you have accepted the Holy | Spirit's purpose as your own, and you would merely bring unholy means |
| Tx:19.4 | from being healed. Your faithlessness has thus opposed the Holy | Spirit's purpose and brought illusions centered on the body to stand |
| Tx:19.12 | for knowledge as is the real world. For faith arises from the Holy | Spirit's perception and is the sign you share it with Him. Faith is a |
| Tx:19.37 | extending past completely unhindered. The extension of the Holy | Spirit's purpose from your relationship to others to bring them |
| Tx:19.39 | the peace in you has been extended to encompass everyone, the Holy | Spirit's function here will be accomplished. What need is there for |
| Tx:19.42 | The Holy | Spirit's purpose rests in peace within you. Yet you are still |
| Tx:19.61 | murder. Here is the source of the idea that love is fear. The Holy | Spirit's messengers are sent far beyond the body, calling the mind to |
| Tx:19.79 | is not to death nor to its master. When you accepted the Holy | Spirit's purpose in place of the ego's, you renounced death, |
| Tx:20.9 | have asked for and received another sight. Those who accept the Holy | Spirit's purpose as their own share also His vision. And what enables |
| Tx:20.10 | not. Nor can you use what I have given unless you share it. The Holy | Spirit's vision is no idle gift, no plaything to be tossed about a |
| Tx:20.33 | must enter here to learn its special function in the Holy | Spirit's plan, now that it shares His purpose. And as this purpose is |
| Tx:20.49 | The Holy | Spirit's temple is not a body, but a relationship. The body is an |
| Tx:20.50 | You cannot make the body the Holy | Spirit's temple, and it will never be the seat of love. It is the |
| Tx:20.51 | Your temple is not threatened. You are idolaters no longer. The Holy | Spirit's purpose lies safe in your relationship and not your bodies. |
| Tx:20.58 | bring you only joy. But we have also said the means to meet the Holy | Spirit's goal will come from the same Source as does His purpose. |
| Tx:20.66 | that his sinlessness is your escape from fear. Salvation is the Holy | Spirit's goal. The means is vision. For what the seeing look upon is |
| Tx:20.69 | sinlessness is given you in shining light, to look on with the Holy | Spirit's vision and to rejoice in along with Him. For peace will come |
| Tx:21.40 | upon quite differently. You can have faith in it to serve the Holy | Spirit's goal and give it power to serve as means to help the blind |
| Tx:21.44 | And what your reason tells you now, the ego would not hear. The Holy | Spirit's purpose was accepted by the part of your mind the ego knows |
| Tx:21.44 | no sin. How, otherwise, could it have been willing to see the Holy | Spirit's purpose as its own? |
| Tx:21.45 | And now you recognize that it was not the ego that joined the Holy | Spirit's purpose, and so there must be something else. Think not that |
| Tx:21.55 | and you have gone past this. Reason is a means which serves the Holy | Spirit's purpose in its own right. It is not reinterpreted and |
| Tx:21.57 | with your Father's to the undoing of insanity. Here was the Holy | Spirit's purpose accepted and accomplished both at once. Reason is |
| Tx:22.21 | ego must be made complete. For if you have the means to let the Holy | Spirit's purpose be accomplished, they can be used. And through their |
| Tx:22.59 | your Father loves with charity? Extension of forgiveness is the Holy | Spirit's function. Leave this to Him. Let your concern be only that |
| Tx:25.9 | as one, aware that it is one and so experienced. It is the Holy | Spirit's function to teach you how this oneness is experienced, what |
| Tx:25.46 | Such is the Holy | Spirit's kind perception of specialness—His use of what you made, |
| Tx:25.67 | denies that it is real. It is impossible for you to share the Holy | Spirit's justice with a mind that can conceive of specialness at all. |
| Tx:25.67 | for those who still believe sin meaningful to understand the Holy | Spirit's justice. |
| Tx:25.75 | He shares. His understanding will be yours. And so the Holy | Spirit's special function has been fulfilled. God's Son has found a |
| Tx:25.76 | must be an injustice to them both, since they are equal in the Holy | Spirit's sight. Their Father gave the same inheritance to both. Who |
| Tx:25.81 | of innocence makes punishment impossible and justice sure. The Holy | Spirit's perception leaves no ground for an attack. Only a loss could |
| Tx:25.82 | added to the first, in which the murder is not obvious. The Holy | Spirit's problem solving is the way in which the problem ends. It has |
| Tx:25.84 | Son be more unfair than he has sought to be. If miracles, the Holy | Spirit's gift, were given specially to an elect and special group and |
| Tx:26.9 | back the gift of freedom by receiving it of you. What is the Holy | Spirit's special function but to release the holy Son of God from the |
| Tx:26.16 | not want. And you will see each little hurt resolved before the Holy | Spirit's gentle sight. For all of them are little in His sight and |
| Tx:26.76 | its form is changed and what it is cannot be recognized. The Holy | Spirit's purpose now is yours. Should not His happiness be yours as |
| Tx:26.84 | Son return to what is Theirs and will forever be. Now is the Holy | Spirit's purpose done. For They have come! For They have come at last! |
| Tx:26.89 | And this you seek to add unto the purpose given it. The Holy | Spirit's purpose is to let the Presence of your holy Guests be known |
| Tx:27.10 | of the proof that what your function is can never be! The Holy | Spirit's picture changes not the body into something it is not. It |
| Tx:27.24 | correction is the same as pardon, then you also know the Holy | Spirit's mind and yours are one. And so your own Identity is found. |
| Tx:28.5 | The Holy | Spirit's use of memory is quite apart from time. He does not seek to |
| Tx:28.44 | The Holy | Spirit's function is to take the broken picture of the Son of God and |
| Tx:30.87 | while the symbols which are used mean different things? The Holy | Spirit's goal gives one interpretation, meaningful to you and to your |
| Tx:31.4 | the first accomplishment of learning—an enormity so great the Holy | Spirit's Voice seems small and still before its magnitude. The world |
| Tx:31.51 | Thus are the Holy | Spirit's lesson plans arranged in easy steps that though there be |

| W1:66.12 | ego ever proposed. Yet the ego is the only alternative to the Holy | Spirit's Voice. You will listen to madness or hear the truth. Try to |
| W1:89.5 | all grievances. By this idea do I unite my will with the Holy | Spirit's and perceive them as one. By this idea do I accept my |
| W1:R3.7 | trust and confidence and faith. It will not fail. It is the Holy | Spirit's chosen means for your salvation. Since it has His trust, His |
| W1:159.6 | This is the Holy | Spirit's single gift—the treasure house to which you can appeal |
| W2:WIHS.2 | The goal the Holy | Spirit's teaching sets is just this end of dreams. For sights and |
| W2:295.2 | me. Help me to use the eyes of Christ today and thus allow the Holy | Spirit's love to bless all things that I may look upon, that His |
| W2:312.1 | real world come to greet the holy sight of anyone who takes the Holy | Spirit's purpose as his goal for seeing. And he cannot fail to look |
| M:4.14 | him confused, fearful, angry, and suspicious. It will make the Holy | Spirit's lessons impossible to learn. Nor can God's Teacher be heard |
| M:19.1 | on justice since all attack can only be unjust. Justice is the Holy | Spirit's verdict upon the world. Except in His judgment, justice is |
| M:20.5 | is our practicing given its one direction. And in this the Holy | Spirit's whole curriculum is specified exactly as it is. |
| M:25.6 | Yet here is also a great channel of hope and healing in the Holy | Spirit's service. Those who have developed “psychic” powers have |
| M:28.1 | about the meaning of the world. It is the acceptance of the Holy | Spirit's interpretation of the world's purpose; the acceptance of the |
| M:28.1 | It is the end of dreams of misery and the glad awareness of the Holy | Spirit's final dream. It is the recognition of the gifts of God. It |
| M:29.2 | is highly individualized. And all aspects are under the Holy | Spirit's particular care and guidance. Ask and He will answer. The |
| M:29.3 | of this aspect, but its centrality is obvious. To follow the Holy | Spirit's guidance is to let yourself be absolved of guilt. It is the |
| M:29.3 | of love return to you. Do not, then, think that following the Holy | Spirit's guidance is necessary merely because of your own |

| Tx:1.12 | and thinking. One makes the physical and the other creates the | spiritual, and we believe in what we make or create. |
| Tx:1.22 | This is a very primitive solution and has led to a denial of the | Spiritual eye. The escape from darkness involves two stages: |
| Tx:1.56 | 39. The | Spiritual eye is the mechanism of miracles, because what It perceives |

| Tx:2.45 | real beauty of the temple cannot be seen with the physical eye. The | Spiritual eye, on the other hand, cannot see the building at all |

| Tx:4.103 | Every mind which is | split needs rehabilitation. The medical orientation to rehabilitation |
| Tx:5.40 | of your beliefs. The separation is merely another term for a | split mind. It was not an act, but a thought. Therefore, the idea of |
| Tx:6.25 | Any | split in will must involve a rejection of part of it, and this is the |
| Tx:6.27 | will always hurt you. It reinforces your belief in your own | split mind, and its only purpose is to keep the separation going. It |

| Tx:6.57 | in your own perfection. Could God teach you that you had made a | split mind, when He knows your mind only as whole? What God does know |
| Tx:6.73 | as yet. Further, the mind of the learner projects its own | split, and thus does not perceive consistent minds in others, making |
| Tx:7.94 | any part of the Kingdom from yourself, and you are not whole. A | split mind cannot perceive its fullness and needs the miracle of its |

| Tx:8.79 | used otherwise is. Do not allow the body to be a mirror of a | split mind. Do not let it be an image of your own perception of |
| Tx:8.88 | mind. All forms of dysfunction are merely signs that the mind has | split and does not accept a unified purpose. |
| Tx:8.90 | not possibly have occurred unless the mind were already profoundly | split, making it possible for the mind to be afraid of what it really |
| Tx:8.94 | is no difference between your will and God's. If you did not have | split minds, you would recognize that willing is salvation because it |
| Tx:9.64 | simply that you would decide against them as long as your minds are | split, and to attack what you have created is impossible. But |
| Tx:9.87 | Oneness cannot be divided. If you perceive other gods, your mind is | split, and you will not be able to limit the split because the split |

| Tx:10.84 | his loving thoughts as his reality, for by denying that his mind is | split, you will heal yours. Accept him as his Father accepts him and |
| Tx:10.86 | Do not accept your brother's variable perception of himself, for his | split mind is yours, and you will not accept your healing without |
| Tx:11.2 | behaviorally but not emotionally. This is quite evidently a mental | split in which you have attacked the integrity of your mind and |
| Tx:11.30 | but an internal conflict of this magnitude he cannot tolerate. A | split mind is endangered, and the recognition that it encompasses |
| Tx:11.30 | within itself is intolerable. Therefore the mind projects the | split, not the reality. Everything you perceive as the outside world |
| Tx:11.32 | gave you the real world in exchange for the one you made out of your | split mind, and which is the symbol of death. For if you could really |
| Tx:11.37 | part of your mind, and because of its source, the ego is not wholly | split off, or it could not be believed at all. For it is your mind |
| Tx:11.46 | when you have attacked it. You cannot learn of perfect love with a | split mind because a split mind has made itself a poor learner. You |
| Tx:11.46 | it. You cannot learn of perfect love with a split mind because a | split mind has made itself a poor learner. You tried to make the |
| Tx:11.50 | this major curriculum goal, is learning how not to overcome the | split which made this goal believable. And you can not overcome it, |
| Tx:11.66 | them both. The mind always strives for integration, and if it is | split and wants to keep the split, it will believe it has one goal by |
| Tx:11.66 | strives for integration, and if it is split and wants to keep the | split, it will believe it has one goal by making it one. |
| Tx:11.68 | that it is pursuing one goal. As long as you perceive the world as | split, you are not healed. For to be healed is to pursue one goal |
| Tx:11.78 | your sight into his Father. He did not change, but you did. For a | split mind and all its works were not created by the Father and could |
| Tx:11.85 | as unworthy of love and deserving of punishment. But herein lies the | split. For the mind that judges perceives itself as separate from the |
| Tx:12.1 | strong that you cannot resist it. On this issue, then, the deepest | split of all occurs, for if you are to retain guilt as the ego |
| Tx:12.38 | madness, you overlook reality completely, and you see only your own | split mind everywhere you look. God calls you and you do not hear, |
| Tx:16.30 | hate with love that makes love meaningless to you. The extent of the | split that lies in this you do not realize. And until you do, the |
| Tx:16.30 | split that lies in this you do not realize. And until you do, the | split will remain unrecognized and therefore unhealed. |
| Tx:16.32 | as a value in itself, but as a place of safety from which hatred is | split off and kept apart. The special love partner is acceptable only |
| Tx:17.62 | does not perceive the situation as a whole. Therefore, it seeks to | split off segments of the situation and deal with them separately, |
| Tx:18.1 | which the substitution occurred is thus fragmented and its purpose | split accordingly. To fragment is to exclude, and substitution is the |
| Tx:18.84 | it is the tiny part of yourself, the little thought that seems | split off and separate, which the Holy Spirit needs. The rest is |
| Tx:19.31 | rest. If sin is real, God must be at war with Himself. He must be | split and torn between good and evil—partly sane and partially |
| Tx:19.32 | seems to be everywhere. And God and His creation seem to be | split apart and overthrown. For sin would prove what God created holy |
| Tx:24.27 | stands against yourself; your enemy, not God's. So does it seem to | split you off from God and make you separate from Him as its |
| Tx:25.10 | oneness joined as one is meaningless. It is apparent that a mind so | split could never be the teacher of a Oneness which unites all things |
| Tx:25.70 | is not understandable to sinners because they think that justice is | split off from love and stands for something else. |
| Tx:26.52 | opposed by its own opposite, as real as it. Then would God's Will be | split in two and all creation be subjected to the laws of two |
| Tx:27.23 | [In a | split mind, identity must seem to be divided. Nor can anyone perceive |
| Tx:27.23 | conflicting purposes and different ends. Correction, to a mind so | split, must be a way to punish sins you think are yours in someone |
| Tx:27.24 | in opposition to a half. And these two halves appear to represent a | split within a self perceived as two.] |
| Tx:27.25 | an idea of self as two, there comes a necessary view of function | split between the two. And what you would correct is only half the |

| Tx:27.71 | honest choice could never be perceived as one in which the choice is | split between a tiny you and an enormous world, with different dreams |
| Tx:28.23 | could not be the maker of the dream. Effect and cause are first | split off and then reversed, so that effect becomes a cause; the |
| Tx:28.62 | There is no in between, no other choice, and no allegiance to be | split between the two. A split allegiance is but faithlessness to |
| Tx:28.62 | no other choice, and no allegiance to be split between the two. A | split allegiance is but faithlessness to both and merely sets you |
| Tx:31.15 | of peace. You see yourself divided into both these roles, forever | split between the two. And every friend or enemy becomes a means to |
| W1:68.2 | just what holding grievances does to your awareness. It seems to | split you off from your Source and make you unlike Him. It makes you |
| W1:96.1 | good and evil, loving and hating, mind and body. This sense of being | split into opposites induces feelings of acute and constant conflict |
| W1:96.3 | The self you made can never be your Self, nor can your Self be | split in two and still be what it is and must forever be. |

| Tx:4.19 | beauty and dignity are far beyond doubt, beyond perception, and | stand forever as the mark of the Love of God for His creations, who |

| Tx:8.89 | can not know it. Yet it is still His Will for you, and His Will must | stand forever and in all things. |
| Tx:9.1 | you maintain. Egos are critical in terms of the kind of “sense” they | stand for. They understand this kind of sense because it is sensible |
| Tx:9.44 | questioned from beyond it, because, within it, its foundation does | stand. The Holy Spirit judges against the reality of the ego's |
| Tx:9.69 | waiting for your acceptance. Give up gladly everything that would | stand in the way of your remembering, for God is in your memory, and |
| Tx:10.2 | which you made, is your father, or its whole thought system will not | stand. |
| Tx:10.57 | not deny, and He will demonstrate its truth. The witnesses for God | stand in His light and behold what He created. Their silence is the |

| Tx:13.23 | associations to it have no meaning in the present. Yet you let them | stand between you and your brothers, with whom you find no real |

| Tx:14.13 | Father. In guiltlessness we know Him, as He knows us guiltless. I | stand within the circle, calling you to peace. Teach peace with me |
| Tx:14.13 | within the circle, calling you to peace. Teach peace with me and | stand with me on holy ground. Remember for everyone your Father's |
| Tx:14.13 | has given him. Believe not that you cannot teach His perfect peace. | Stand not outside but join with me within. Fail not the only purpose |
| Tx:14.39 | what it meets and is undone, because the contradiction can no longer | stand. How long can contradiction stand when its impossible nature is |
| Tx:14.39 | the contradiction can no longer stand. How long can contradiction | stand when its impossible nature is clearly revealed? What disappears |

| Tx:15.39 | I | stand within the holy instant, as clear as you would have me. And the |
| Tx:15.92 | Father and the Son. For in this world, the attraction of guilt does | stand between them. Neither time nor season means anything in |
| Tx:16.26 | faith in what you taught. For what you taught is true. Alone you | stand outside your teaching and apart from it. But with them you must |
| Tx:16.29 | planted firmly on it. Have no fear that the attraction of those who | stand on the other side and wait for you will not draw you safely |
| Tx:16.31 | of love play out a conflict which does not exist. For symbols | stand for something else, and the symbol of love is without meaning |
| Tx:16.41 | it. Turn with me firmly away from all illusions now, and let nothing | stand in the way of truth. We will take the last foolish journey away |
| Tx:17.55 | You | stand together in the holy presence of truth itself. Here is the |
| Tx:17.55 | between the purpose that has been accepted and the means as they | stand now which seems to make you suffer, but which makes Heaven |
| Tx:18.10 | that illusions cannot remain to darken the holy place in which you | stand together. God is with you, my brothers. Let us join in Him in |
| Tx:18.28 | as you agreed to take each other's. You will not separate, for I | stand with you and walk with you in your advance to truth. And where |
| Tx:18.91 | perception return to you, assuring you that it is all there. Figures | stand out and move about, actions seem real, and forms appear and |

| Tx:19.14 | do they do, returning the glad tidings that it was done to you who | stand together before the altar from which they were sent forth. |
| Tx:19.41 | let a little bank of sand, a wall of dust, a tiny seeming barrier, | stand between your brothers and salvation? And yet, it is this little |
| Tx:19.44 | Guilt can raise no real barriers against it. And all that seems to | stand between you must fall away because of the appeal you answered. |
| Tx:19.44 | would call. His home is in your holy relationship. Do not attempt to | stand between Him and His holy purpose, for it is yours. But let Him |
| Tx:19.45 | end. For Heaven knows you well, as you know Heaven. No illusions | stand between you now. Look not upon the little wall of shadows. The |
| Tx:19.64 | I am there already. We will surmount all obstacles together, for we | stand within the gates and not outside. How easily the gates are |
| Tx:19.88 | sign nor symbol should be confused with source, for they must | stand for something other than themselves. Their meaning cannot lie |
| Tx:19.95 | And now you | stand in terror before what you swore never to look upon. Your eyes |
| Tx:19.96 | again, no stab of fear, nor the cold sweat of seeming death can | stand against your will. For what attracts you from beyond the veil |
| Tx:19.98 | the Atonement and learned illusions are not real. No one can | stand before this obstacle alone, for he could not have reached thus |
| Tx:19.98 | look on it without complete forgiveness of his brother in his heart. | Stand you here a while and tremble not. You will be ready. Let us |
| Tx:19.100 | and love and tenderness. Before complete forgiveness, you still | stand unforgiving. You are afraid of God because you fear each other. |
| Tx:19.110 | whatever meaning lies in them. Beyond this they are meaningless. You | stand together, still without conviction they have a purpose. Yet it |
| Tx:20.2 | crown of thorns; the gift of love and not the “gift” of fear. You | stand beside each other, thorns in one hand and lilies in the other, |
| Tx:20.72 | in everything. Look through its eyes, and everything will | stand condemned before you. All that could save you, you will never |
| Tx:21.3 | aware you can go through the doors you thought were closed but which | stand open before unseeing eyes, waiting to welcome you. |
| Tx:21.28 | deny your whole reality. But grant that everything which seems to | stand between you, keeping you from each other and separate from your |
| Tx:21.68 | to you who blessed him, reason will tell you that it cannot be you | stand apart from blessing. The gratitude he offers you reminds you of |
| Tx:21.90 | desire for what will never change. For you have asked that nothing | stand between the holiness of your relationship and your awareness of |
| Tx:22.3 | his own reality, because it is the truth. Just under Heaven does he | stand, but close enough not to return to earth. For this relationship |
| Tx:22.40 | And so you | stand, here in this holy place, before the veil of sin that hangs |
| Tx:22.47 | the means and the material of evil dreams are nothing. In truth you | stand together with nothing in between. God holds your hands, and |
| Tx:22.50 | on the belief that you are separate. Not one that does not seem to | stand, heavy and solid and immovable, between you and your brother. |
| Tx:22.50 | must happen. For it is your unwillingness to overlook what seems to | stand between you that makes it look impenetrable and defends the |
| Tx:23.23 | to himself and his Creator. The arrogance on which the laws of chaos | stand could not be more apparent than emerges here. |
| Tx:24.12 | your specialness instead. Against the littleness you see in him, you | stand as tall and stately, clean and honest, pure and unsullied by |
| Tx:24.20 | that they cannot be reached. Here in this holy place does truth | stand waiting to receive you both in silent blessing and in peace so |
| Tx:24.32 | by a world of loveliness they do not see. Freedom and peace and joy | stand there beside the bier on which they sleep and call them to come |
| Tx:24.37 | that all illusions are “threatened” by the truth. They will not | stand before it. Yet what comfort has ever been in them that you |
| Tx:25.4 | the holy Christ unto Himself; nor are any differences perceived to | stand between the aspects of His holiness, which meet and join and |
| Tx:25.5 | Framed in his body, you will see your sinfulness wherein you | stand condemned. Set in his holiness, the Christ in him proclaims |
| Tx:25.7 | nothing hides the face of Christ from its beholders. And both of you | stand there, before Him now, to let Him draw aside the veil that |
| Tx:25.30 | perfect power to offset the world of violence and hate that seems to | stand between you and His gentleness. It is not there in His |
| Tx:25.35 | for recognition and are gone forever. And in the sunlight you will | stand in quiet, in innocence, and wholly unafraid. And from you will |
| Tx:25.72 | and justice are not different. Because they are the same does mercy | stand at God's right hand and give the Son of God the power to |
| Tx:26.27 | The holy place on which you | stand is but the space that sin has left. And here you see the face |
| Tx:26.27 | and not recall His Father as He really is? Who could fear love and | stand upon the ground where sin has left a place for Heaven's altar |
| Tx:26.36 | and no other way. For what has been undone no longer is. And who can | stand upon a distant shore and dream himself across an ocean to a |
| Tx:26.43 | Forgive the past and let it go, for it is gone. You | stand no longer on the ground that lies between the worlds. You have |
| Tx:26.78 | And would you trade Them for an ancient hate? The ground whereon you | stand is holy ground because of Them Who, standing there with you, |
| Tx:26.79 | desolate. What hate has wrought have They undone. And now you | stand on ground so holy Heaven leans to join with it and make it like |
| Tx:26.80 | their garments of insanity to join Them on the ground whereon you | stand. |
| Tx:27.13 | accusation is a bar to love, and damaged bodies are accusers. They | stand firmly in the way of trust and peace, proclaiming that the |
| Tx:27.30 | for nothing. Symbols which but represent ideas that cannot be must | stand for empty space and nothingness. Yet nothingness and empty |
| Tx:27.32 | there are no symbols. Nothing points beyond the truth, for what can | stand for more than everything? Yet true undoing must be kind. And so |
| Tx:27.34 | an instant in deciding that it is the only one you want. It does not | stand for double concepts. Though it is but half the picture and is |
| Tx:27.43 | Here are the answers which will solve your problems because they | stand apart from them, and see what can be answered—what the |
| Tx:27.52 | it finds. Your brother first among them will be seen, but thousands | stand behind him, and beyond each one there are a thousand more. Each |
| Tx:27.67 | where you should look to find the truth. The witnesses to sin all | stand within one little space. And it is here you find the cause of |
| Tx:28.27 | This world is full of miracles. They | stand in shining silence next to every dream of pain and suffering, |
| Tx:28.35 | but let your world be lit by miracles. And where the gap was seen to | stand between you, join your brother there. And sickness will be seen |
| Tx:28.38 | by not accepting them as causing you and giving you effects. You | stand apart from them but not apart from him who dreams them. Thus |
| Tx:28.41 | if you do your part, he will do his, for he will join you where you | stand. Call not to him to meet you in the gap between you, or you |
| Tx:28.66 | with no effect. The world will wash away, and yet this house will | stand forever, for its strength lies not within itself alone. It is |
| Tx:29.13 | welcome everyone whose feet have touched the holy ground whereon you | stand and where His gifts for them are laid. |
| Tx:29.42 | Son. For even though it was a dream of death, you need not let it | stand for this to you. Let this be changed, and nothing in the world |
| Tx:29.53 | must seek beyond his little self for strength to raise his head and | stand apart from all the misery the world reflects. This is the |
| Tx:29.53 | and quiet calm which liberates you from the world and lets you | stand apart in quiet and in peace [unlimited]. |
| Tx:30.63 | When brothers join in purpose in the world of fear, they | stand already at the edge of the real world. Perhaps they still look |
| Tx:31.5 | what it was made to teach. Now does your ancient overlearning | stand implacable before the Voice of truth and teach you that Its |
| Tx:31.14 | Let us review again what seems to | stand between you and the truth of what you are. For there are steps |
| Tx:31.47 | this: “I am the thing you made of me, and as you look on me, you | stand condemned because of what I am.” On this conception of the self |
| Tx:31.55 | decision. But this gain is paid in almost equal loss, for now you | stand accused of guilt for what your brother is. And you must share |
| Tx:31.57 | Seek not your Self in symbols. There can be no concept that can | stand for what you are. What matters it which concept you accept |
| Tx:31.59 | question and been recognized as made on no assumptions which would | stand the light, then is the truth left free to enter in its |
| Tx:31.66 | you would have him be, forget not that no concept of yourself will | stand against the truth of what you are. Undoing truth would be |
| W1:44.6 | If you can | stand aside from the ego by ever so little, you will have no |
| W1:45.12 | the idea throughout the day to appreciate your mind's holiness. | Stand aside, however briefly, from all thoughts that are unworthy of |
| W1:66.13 | of the same as the same and the different as different. On one side | stand all illusions. All truth stands on the other. Let us try today |
| W1:69.5 | From where you | stand, you can see no reason to believe there is a brilliant light |
| W1:73.2 | become the middlemen the ego employs to traffic in grievances and | stand between your awareness and your brothers' reality. Beholding |
| W1:73.6 | that the barrier of grievances is easily passed and cannot | stand between you and your salvation. The reason is very simple. Do |
| W1:81.5 | that I will see the light in me. And in this light will my function | stand clear and perfectly unambiguous before my sight. My acceptance |
| W1:87.4 | This cannot hide the light I will to see. You | stand with me in light, [name]. In the light this will look different. |
| W1:94.2 | you. Darkness cannot obscure the glory of the Son of God. You | stand in light, strong in the sinlessness in which you were created |
| W1:98.1 | Today is a day of special dedication. We take a | stand on but one side today. We side with truth and let illusions go. |
| W1:98.2 | happy to be certain! All our doubts we lay aside today and take our | stand with certainty of purpose and with thanks that doubt is gone |
| W1:98.3 | be filled completely in the perfect time and place. They took the | stand which we will take today that we may share their certainty and |
| W1:98.4 | They will be with us—all who took the | stand we take today will gladly offer us all that they learned and |
| W1:122.6 | Here is the answer! Would you | stand outside while all of Heaven waits for you within? Forgive and |
| W1:125.3 | will not judge ourselves today, for what we are cannot be judged. We | stand apart from all the judgments which the world has laid upon the |
| W1:129.5 | it for the world you want. Now is the last step certain; now you | stand an instant's space away from timelessness. Here can you but |
| W1:136.7 | to be seen as whole again. And yet you have forgotten that they | stand but for your own decision of what should be real, to take the |
| W1:153.9 | we have left all fearful thoughts behind. And in defenselessness we | stand secure, serenely certain of our safety now, sure of salvation; |
| W1:155.2 | madness, but to let illusion sink behind the truth and let the truth | stand forth as what it is, is simple sanity. |
| W1:161.1 | Today we practice differently and take a | stand against our anger, that our fears may disappear and offer room |
| W1:161.5 | of fear. Fear without symbols calls for no response, for symbols can | stand for the meaningless. Love needs no symbols, being true. But |
| W1:163.8 | death. Whatever form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the | stand we take today. And it is given us to look past death and see |
| W1:164.7 | will but increase our joy because its holiness reflects our own. We | stand forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the world forgiven in |
| W1:183.2 | Name, and you invite the angels to surround the ground on which you | stand and sing to you as they spread out their wings to keep you safe |
| W1:183.3 | the world holds dear has suddenly gone by, and where it seemed to | stand you find a star; a miracle of grace. The sick arise, healed of |
| W1:184.6 | and symbols which assert the world is real. It is for this they | stand. They leave no doubt that what is named is there. It can be |
| W1:184.9 | world a while. But be you not deceived by them as well. They do not | stand for anything at all, and in your practicing, it is this thought |
| W1:187.10 | the altar to one God, one Father, one Creator and one thought, we | stand together as one Son of God. Not separate from Him Who is our |
| W1:187.10 | is part of our One Self Whose innocence has joined us all as one, we | stand in blessedness and give as we receive. The Name of God is on |
| W1:198.15 | Today we come still nearer to the end of everything that yet would | stand between this vision and our sight. And we are glad that we have |
| W1:199.8 | well the thought the Holy Spirit gives you for today. Your brothers | stand released with you in it; the world is blessed along with you; |
| W2:228.2 | And my mistakes about myself are dreams. I let them go today. And I | stand ready to receive Your Word alone for what I really am. |
| W2:247.1 | you. Your loveliness reflects my own. Your sinlessness is mine. You | stand forgiven, and I stand with you. |
| W2:247.1 | reflects my own. Your sinlessness is mine. You stand forgiven, and I | stand with you. |

| Tx:12.47 | no guilt in Him. No cloud of guilt has risen to obscure Him, and He | stands revealed in everyone you meet because you see Him through |
| Tx:13.11 | laws of God must intervene if you would free yourselves. Atonement | stands between them like a lamp that shines so brightly that the |

| Tx:14.46 | When no perception | stands between God and His creations, or between His Children and |
| Tx:14.58 | strength, and truth is beyond semblance of any kind. Yet all that | stands between you and the power of God in you is but your learning |

| Tx:15.12 | to offer you the whole of Heaven. In exchange for this instant, He | stands ready to give you the remembrance of eternity. |
| Tx:15.15 | purity remains forever beyond attack and without variability. Time | stands still in his holiness and changes not. And so it is no longer |

| Tx:16.36 | does not exist. You have come very close to truth, and only this | stands between you and the bridge that leads you into it. |
| Tx:16.55 | do not want this. For every idol which you raise to place before Him | stands before you in place of what you are. |
| Tx:18.11 | your relationship is as it was created.] The universe within you | stands with you, together. And Heaven looks with love on what is |
| Tx:18.55 | violence, and death. This thing you made to serve your guilt | stands between you and other minds. The minds are joined, but you do |
| Tx:18.83 | for He would have you know Him. Only a little wall of dust still | stands between you. Blow on it lightly and with happy laughter, and |
| Tx:19.13 | healed. There is the altar where the grace was given, in which it | stands. Do you, then, offer grace and blessing to each other, for you |
| Tx:19.41 | cost you are so unwilling to pay? The little barrier of sand still | stands between you. Would you reinforce it now? You are not asked to |
| Tx:19.101 | This brother who | stands beside you still seems to be a stranger. You do not know him, |
| Tx:19.102 | for him. Neither can give it to himself alone. And yet your savior | stands beside each one. Let him be what he is and seek not to make of |
| Tx:19.103 | Behold your Friend, the Christ Who | stands beside you. How holy and how beautiful He is! You thought He |
| Tx:20.11 | to you now. Who is afraid to look upon illusions, knowing his savior | stands beside him? With him, your vision has become the greatest |
| Tx:21.37 | afraid. The gift that He has given you is more than anything that | stands this side of Heaven. The instant for its recognition is at |
| Tx:21.63 | you see it if you heard the voice of reason. What can there be that | stands between what is continuous? And if there is nothing in |
| Tx:22.33 | distorted form of vision, the outside of everything, the wall that | stands between you and the truth, is wholly true. Yet how can sight |
| Tx:22.40 | Let it be lifted! Raise it together, for it is but a veil that | stands between you. Either alone will see it as a solid block, nor |
| Tx:22.44 | through its nothingness. It is no solid wall. And only an illusion | stands between you and the holy Self you share. |
| Tx:22.49 | If you but recognized how little | stands between you and your awareness of your union! Be not deceived |
| Tx:23.3 | from the illusion of harmfulness. And what seemed harmful now | stands shining in their innocence, released from sin and fear, and |
| Tx:23.13 | happens. There is no victor, and there is no victory. And truth | stands radiant, apart from conflict, untouched and quiet in the peace |
| Tx:23.37 | is not anywhere. Outside of Heaven, only the conflict of illusions | stands; senseless, impossible, and beyond all reason, and yet |
| Tx:23.46 | left standing still will shelter you. Not one illusion of protection | stands against the faith in murder. Here stands the body, torn |
| Tx:23.46 | one illusion of protection stands against the faith in murder. Here | stands the body, torn between the natural desire to communicate and |

| Tx:24.18 | can understand, and one which brings release to both of you. Here | stands your brother with the key to Heaven in his hand held out to |
| Tx:24.20 | blessing and in peace so real and so encompassing that nothing | stands outside. Leave all illusions of yourself outside this place to |
| Tx:24.27 | form of specialness you cherish, you have made sin. Inviolate it | stands, strongly defended with all your puny might against the Will |
| Tx:24.27 | with all your puny might against the Will of God. And thus it | stands against yourself; your enemy, not God's. So does it seem to |
| Tx:24.29 | Nor is it possible the two can ever be the same while specialness | stands like a flaming sword of death between them and makes them |
| Tx:24.56 | will think it is until you realize that it is not a part of him who | stands beside you. He is the mirror of yourself wherein you see the |
| Tx:24.59 | Specialness is the function which you gave yourself. It | stands for you alone, as self-created, self-maintained, in need of |

| Tx:25.58 | and less— until he comes to understand it cost him his sanity and | stands between him and whatever hope he has of being sane. Nor is he |
| Tx:25.70 | sinners because they think that justice is split off from love and | stands for something else. |
| Tx:25.71 | from love. And what but vengeance now can help and save, while love | stands feebly by with helpless hands, bereft of justice and vitality |

| Tx:26.26 | totally forgiven. And what has been forgiven must join, for nothing | stands between to keep them separate and apart. The sinless must |
| Tx:26.26 | and apart. The sinless must perceive that they are one, for nothing | stands between to push the other off. And in the space which sin left |
| Tx:26.29 | has joined with but a single voice. This tiny spot of sin that | stands between you still is holding back the happy opening of |
| Tx:26.37 | Is this a hindrance to the place whereon he | stands? Is any echo from the past that he may hear a fact in what is |
| Tx:26.54 | but your wish to be apart and separate. Forgiveness takes away what | stands between your brother and yourself. It is the wish that you be |
| Tx:26.72 | protected and kept separate from healing. For a miracle is now. It | stands already here in present grace, within the only interval of |
| Tx:26.84 | give thanks that They are welcome made at last. Where stood a cross | stands now the risen Christ, and ancient scars are healed within His |
| Tx:26.86 | effects of any kind. Their Presence is obscured by any veil which | stands between Their shining innocence and your awareness it is your |
| Tx:27.10 | judged in any way at all. It has no life, but neither is it dead. It | stands apart from all experience of fear or love. For now it |
| Tx:27.18 | had no hurt of him. He thinks your blood is on his hands, and so he | stands condemned. Yet it is given you to show him by your healing |
| Tx:27.30 | above all, a “living-death.” And so he has no meaning to you, for he | stands for what is meaningless. He represents a double thought, where |
| Tx:27.30 | by the half it canceled out, and so they both are gone. And now he | stands for nothing. Symbols which but represent ideas that cannot be |
| Tx:27.47 | What | stands apart from you when you accept the blessing that the holy |
| Tx:27.59 | too, has symbols in a world of sin. The miracle forgives because it | stands for what is past forgiveness and is true. How foolish and |
| Tx:27.69 | He cannot choose to waken from a dream he did not make. Helpless he | stands, a victim to a dream conceived and cherished by a separate |
| Tx:28.65 | but in the frailty of the little gap of nothingness whereon it | stands? What can be safe which rests upon a shadow? Would you build |
| Tx:29.8 | its lack of strength or weakness. Would you recognize that nothing | stands between you? Would you know there is no gap behind which you |
| Tx:30.42 | of God's Son. He has no need to seek for it at all. Beyond all idols | stands his holy will to be but what he is. For more than whole is |
| Tx:30.58 | to be a place where hope of happiness can be fulfilled. And no one | stands outside this hope because the world has been united in belief |
| Tx:30.74 | if there were, it would be necessary first there be some sin which | stands beyond forgiveness. There would be an error that is more than |
| Tx:30.88 | solitude, for what you see means nothing. It will shift in what it | stands for, and you will believe the world is an uncertain place in |
| Tx:31.74 | The concept of the self | stands like a shield, a silent barricade before the truth, and hides |
| Tx:31.75 | himself in him. Thus is the concept of himself laid by, for nothing | stands between his sight and what he looks upon to judge what he |
| Tx:31.82 | vision is withheld, and what they see is death. Their savior | stands, unknowing and unknown, beholding them with eyes unopened. And |
| W1:29.3 | what is in them? Nothing is as it appears to you. Its holy purpose | stands beyond your little range. When vision has shown you the |
| W1:39.3 | world. As you apply the exercises to your own world, the whole world | stands to benefit. |
| W1:39.8 | on any one in particular, search your mind for every thought that | stands between you and your salvation. Apply the idea for today to |
| W1:66.13 | different as different. On one side stand all illusions. All truth | stands on the other. Let us try today to realize that only the truth |
| W1:69.1 | your grievances are hiding the light of the world in you, everyone | stands in darkness, and you beside him. But as the veil of your |
| W1:72.8 | Others love the body and try to glorify and exalt it. But while it | stands at the center of your concept of yourself, you are attacking |
| W1:73.9 | Today it is the ego which | stands powerless before your will. Your will is free, and nothing can |
| W1:78.1 | you make is one between a grievance and a miracle. Each grievance | stands like a dark shield of hate before the miracle it would |
| W1:78.3 | and as it lifts, you see the Son of God where he has always been. He | stands in light, but you were in the dark. Each grievance made the |
| W1:78.9 | as the one for me to ask to lead me to the holy light In which he | stands, that I may join with him. |
| W1:92.9 | Strength and light unite in you, and where they meet, your Self | stands ready to embrace you as Its own. Such is the meeting place we |
| W1:97.4 | You are the Spirit in whose mind abides the miracle in which all time | stands still; the miracle in which a minute spent in using these |
| W1:98.2 | everything we need with which to reach the goal. Not one mistake | stands in our way, for we have been absolved from errors. All our |
| W1:107.6 | Illusions can be brought to truth to be corrected. But the truth | stands far beyond illusions and cannot be brought to them to turn |
| W1:107.7 | in that, evading capture and escaping grasp. It does not hide. It | stands in open light, in obvious accessibility. It is impossible that |
| W1:122.5 | Be thankful it remains exactly as He planned it. Changelessly it | stands before you, like an open door with warmth and welcome calling |
| W1:134.7 | Forgiveness is the only thing that | stands for truth in the illusions of the world. It sees their |
| W1:134.10 | condemn. In truth is innocence the only thing there is. Forgiveness | stands between illusions and the truth, between the world you see and |
| W1:151.12 | resurrection, for your life is not a part of anything you see. It | stands beyond the body and the world, past every witness for |
| W1:169.13 | grace provided you. You carry them back to yourself. And revelation | stands not far behind. Its coming is ensured. We ask for grace and |
| W1:170.5 | its imagined way, you will perceive the premises on which the idea | stands. First, it is obvious ideas must leave their source. For it is |

| Tx:2.99 | that immediate correction is mandatory. This establishes a | state of mind in which the Atonement can be accepted without delay. |
| Tx:2.103 | for accomplishment. The two should not be confused. As soon as a | state of readiness occurs, there is usually some will to accomplish, |
| Tx:2.103 | to accomplish, but this is by no means necessarily undivided. The | state does not imply more than a potential for a shift of will. |
| Tx:3.24 | lamb taketh away the sins of the world only in the sense that the | state of innocence, or grace, is one in which the meaning of the |

| Tx:4.26 | that has occurred with such persistence. I am using your present | state [as an example] of how the mind can work, provided you fully |
| Tx:4.33 | another way of describing how it originated. This is such a fearful | state that it can only turn to other egos and try to unite with them |
| Tx:4.41 | transcends the sum of its parts. Christmas is not a time; it is a | state of mind. The Christ Mind wills from the Soul, not from the ego, |
| Tx:4.70 | A major source of the ego's off-balanced | state is its lack of discrimination between impulses from God and |
| Tx:4.70 | system which makes this confusion must be insane. Yet this demented | state is essential to the ego, which judges only in terms of threat |
| Tx:4.74 | naturally develop, would necessarily involve accurate perception, a | state of clarity which the ego, fearful of being judged truly, must |

| Tx:4.82 | Immortality is a constant | state. It is as true now as it ever was or ever will be because it |

| Tx:4.98 | that is real, including the Soul. To whatever extent you permit this | state to be curtailed, you are limiting your sense of your own |
| Tx:4.99 | between “having” and “being” as there is in existence. In the | state of being, the mind gives everything always. |
| Tx:5.2 | to be wholly fearful and remain alive, then the only possible whole | state is that of love. There is no difference between love and joy. |
| Tx:5.2 | difference between love and joy. Therefore, the only possible whole | state is the wholly joyous. To heal or to make joyous is therefore |
| Tx:5.12 | Him. The Holy Spirit is the Mind of the Atonement. It represents a | state of mind that comes close enough to One-Mindedness that transfer |
| Tx:5.22 | This is a conflict | state. It means that knowledge has been lost, because knowledge is |
| Tx:5.22 | calls you both to remember and to forget. You have chosen to be in a | state of opposition in which opposites are possible. As a result, |
| Tx:5.22 | As a result, there are choices which you must make. In the holy | state, the will is free in the sense that its creative power is |
| Tx:5.84 | because he did not include himself in it. This is a dissociated | state, because the thinker cuts himself off from his thoughts. |
| Tx:5.85 | fixed in its purpose, it is not clear. Clarity literally means the | state of light, and enlightenment is understanding. Enlightenment |

| Tx:7.33 | It is their result, in a state of mind which does not know Him. The | state is unknown to Him and therefore does not exist, but those who |

| Tx:8.79 | Do not let it reflect your will to attack. Health is the natural | state of anything whose interpretation is left to the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:8.91 | It is impossible to learn anything consistently in a | state of panic. If the purpose of this course is to learn what you |
| Tx:8.107 | mean what it says. You must remember, however, that the course does | state, and repeatedly, that its purpose is the escape from fear. |
| Tx:8.108 | certain specific forms of healing are not achieved, even though the | state of healing is. It frequently happens that an individual asks |
| Tx:9.54 | You cannot triumph, but you are exalted. And in your exalted | state, you seek others like you and rejoice with them. |
| Tx:11.7 | your interpretations of reality are meaningless in your divided | state, His remain consistently true. He gives them to you because |

| Tx:13.87 | unto Himself and part of Him, are more than merely guiltless. The | state of guiltlessness is only the condition in which what is not |
| Tx:13.87 | has been removed from the disordered mind that thought it was. This | state, and only this, must you attain with God beside you. For until |
| Tx:15.15 | an instant in which God's Son could lose his purity. His changeless | state is beyond time, for his purity remains forever beyond attack |
| Tx:18.33 | Come to it not in arrogance, assuming that you must achieve the | state its coming brings with it. The miracle of the holy instant lies |
| Tx:18.66 | consuming, for all of them look to the future for release from a | state of present unworthiness and inadequacy. |
| Tx:19.56 | I am made welcome in the | state of grace, which means you have at last forgiven me. For I |
| Tx:20.52 | are or not. An unholy relationship is no relationship. It is a | state of isolation which seems to be what it is not. No more than |
| Tx:21.1 | less. Therefore, to you it is important. It is the witness to your | state of mind, the outside picture of an inward condition. As a man |
| Tx:21.8 | Listen—perhaps you catch a hint of an ancient | state not quite forgotten; dim, perhaps, and yet not altogether |
| Tx:21.32 | For faith and vision and belief are meaningful only before the | state of certainty is reached. In Heaven they are unknown. Yet Heaven |
| Tx:21.81 | and then unmade and made again. But truth is constant and implies a | state where vacillations are impossible. You can desire a world you |
| Tx:22.31 | salvation in itself, but it makes way for peace and brings you to a | state of mind in which salvation can be given you. Sin is a block, |
| Tx:22.37 | real. Yet reason sees a holy relationship as what it is—a common | state of mind, where both give errors gladly to correction that both |
| Tx:22.47 | you in quiet, undefended and wholly undefending, for in this quiet | state alone is strength and power. Here can no weakness enter, for |
| Tx:23.13 | yourself can battle with another, yet the war of two illusions is a | state where nothing happens. There is no victor, and there is no |
| Tx:23.18 | in which fear is born and grows and seeks to dominate. Peace is the | state where love abides and seeks to share itself. Conflict and peace |
| Tx:23.37 | of Heaven. Where God created life, there life must be. In any | state apart from Heaven, life is illusion. At best, it seems like |
| Tx:24.1 | motivation for this course is the attainment and the keeping of the | state of peace. Given this state the mind is quiet, and the condition |
| Tx:24.1 | is the attainment and the keeping of the state of peace. Given this | state the mind is quiet, and the condition in which God is remembered |
| Tx:24.29 | foundation nothing is secure. Would God have left His Son in such a | state, where safety has no meaning? No, His Son is safe, resting on |
| Tx:24.67 | End. In Heaven, means and end are one, and one with Him. This is the | state of true creation, found not within time, but in eternity. To no |
| Tx:25.6 | what you want yourself to be—the world you want to live in and the | state in which you think your mind will be content and satisfied. It |
| Tx:25.30 | by punishment and so preserved. But to forgive it is to change its | state from error into truth. |
| Tx:25.36 | home? Nothing before and nothing after it. No other place, no other | state nor time. Nothing beyond nor nearer. Nothing else. In any form. |
| Tx:25.37 | The | state of sinlessness is merely this: the whole desire to attack is |
| Tx:25.64 | impossible. Have little faith that wisdom could be found in such a | state of mind. But be you thankful that only little faith is asked of |
| Tx:25.81 | The world solves problems in another way. It sees a resolution as a | state in which it is decided who shall win and who shall lose—how |
| Tx:25.82 | the problem still remain unsolved, for only justice can set up a | state in which there is no loser, no one left unfairly treated and |
| Tx:26.55 | Yet is this wish in line with Heaven's | state and not in opposition to God's Will. Although it falls far |
| Tx:26.71 | a present cause. And it is this that needs correction, not a future | state. |
| Tx:27.37 | every problem can be answered now. Yet it must also be that in your | state of mind solution is impossible. Therefore, God must have given |
| Tx:27.37 | Therefore, God must have given you a way of reaching to another | state of mind in which the answer is already there. Such is the holy |
| Tx:27.41 | merely asks what the response should be. But no one in a conflict | state is free to ask this question, for he does not want an honest |
| Tx:27.46 | From there each one is born into this world as witness to a | state of mind which has transcended conflict and has reached to |
| Tx:28.4 | Yet this is not a memory of past events, but only of a present | state. You are so long accustomed to believe that memory holds only |
| Tx:29.1 | There is no time, no place, no | state where God is absent. There is nothing to be feared. There is no |
| Tx:29.15 | it seems to be in constant change. Yet what is that except the | state confusion really means? Stability to those who are confused is |
| Tx:29.16 | the larger dream that change is possible. To change is to attain a | state unlike the one in which you found yourself before. There is no |
| Tx:30.57 | The real world is the | state of mind in which the only purpose of the world is seen to be |
| Tx:30.61 | yet completely shared and perfectly fulfilled. The real world is a | state in which the mind has learned how easily do idols go when they |
| Tx:30.88 | for they are not in line with what you really are. This is a | state so seemingly unsafe that fear must rise. Do not continue thus, |
| Tx:31.11 | an outcome that you do not want? It is the recognition that it is a | state of mind unwanted that becomes the means whereby the choice is |
| Tx:31.54 | of sight into perception's law that what you see reflects the | state of [the] perceiver's mind. Yet who was it that did the choosing |
| W1:20.4 | idea, you are stating that you are determined to change your present | state for a better one, and one you really want. |
| W1:50.2 | a climate of perfect peace and safety. It will transport you into a | state of mind which nothing can threaten, nothing can disturb, and |

| W1:97.2 | We | state again the truth about your Self, the holy Son of God who rests |
| W1:99.1 | the thought of the impossible which has occurred, resulting in a | state of conflict now between what is and what could never be. |
| W1:107.2 | Can you imagine what a | state of mind without illusions is? How it would feel? Try to |

| W1:132.10 | you can suffer and no time that can bring change to your eternal | state. How can a world of time and place exist if you remain as God |
| W1:133.14 | everything and claim it as their own. We will attempt to reach this | state today, with self-deception laid aside and with an honest |
| W1:136.4 | it seems to be external to your own intent—a happening beyond your | state of mind, an outcome with a real effect on you instead of one |
| W1:152.1 | his own decision. No one suffers pain except his choice elects this | state for him. No one can grieve nor fear nor think him sick unless |
| W1:167.2 | In this world there appears to be a | state that is life's opposite. You call it death. Yet we have learned |
| W1:167.6 | it sleeps, but that is all. It cannot change what is its waking | state. It cannot make a body nor abide within a body. What is alien |
| W1:167.6 | give them attributes it lacks nor change its own eternal, mindful | state. It cannot make the physical. What seems to die is but the sign |
| W1:167.9 | not and to assume an alien power which it does not have, a foreign | state it cannot enter, or a false condition not within its Source, it |
| W1:169.1 | Grace is an aspect of the Love of God which is most like the | state prevailing in the unity of truth. It is the world's most lofty |
| W1:169.2 | By grace alone the hate and fear are gone, for grace presents a | state so opposite to everything the world contains that those whose |
| W1:169.3 | that there are things it does not know and thus is ready to accept a | state completely different from experience with which it is |
| W1:169.6 | in him. The world has never been at all. Eternity remains a constant | state. |
| W1:169.8 | set for revelation is entirely irrelevant to what must be a constant | state, forever as it always was; forever to remain as it is now. We |
| W1:170.1 | brings you freedom. And you mean that to attack is to exchange the | state in which you are for something better, safer, more secure from |
| W1:R5.6 | in Its knowledge and Its love, and never changes from Its constant | state of union with Its Father and Itself. |
| W1:183.10 | Today you can achieve a | state in which you will experience the gifts of grace. You can escape |
| W1:196.4 | Today's idea is one step we take in leading us from bondage to the | state of perfect freedom. Let us take this step today that we may |
| W2:293.1 | and all its thoughts gone with it. Love remains the only present | state, whose Source is here forever and forever. Can the world seem |
| W2:304.1 | I use. Perception is a mirror, not a fact. And what I look on is my | state of mind reflected outward. I would bless the world by looking |
| W2:307.2 | And with this prayer, we enter silently into a | state where conflict cannot come because we join our holy will with |
| W2:337.1 | complete deliverance from suffering. And only happiness can be my | state, for only happiness is given me. What must I do to know all |

| Tx:12.7 | This course has explicitly | stated that its goal for you is happiness and peace. Yet you are |
| Tx:15.40 | not to recognize it and not to let it go. The simple reason, simply | stated, is this: The holy instant is a time in which you receive and |
| W1:6.4 | thoughts more than to others, remind yourself of the two cautions | stated in the previous lesson: |
| W1:28.7 | two minute practice periods today in which the idea for the day is | stated first and then applied to whatever you see in looking about |
| W1:35.11 | idea for today to them, adding the idea to each of them in the form | stated above. If nothing particular occurs to you, merely repeat the |
| W1:39.11 | of applying it. However you elect to use it, the idea should be | stated so that its meaning remains that your holiness is your |
| W1:46.12 | should end, however, with a repetition of today's idea as originally | stated. |
| W1:132.6 | Ideas leave not their source. This central theme is often | stated in the text and must be borne in mind if you would understand |
| W1:R4.2 | unifies each step in the review we undertake, which can be simply | stated in these words: |
| W1:154.13 | Our lesson for today is | stated thus: |

| Tx:15.66 | for the ego believes that anger makes friends. This is not its | statement, but it is its purpose. For the ego really believes that it |
| Tx:17.49 | wholly insane. Can you deny that He has given you a most explicit | statement? Now He asks for faith a little longer, even in |

| Tx:30.25 | is but acknowledgment of lack of opposition to be helped. It is a | statement of an open mind, not certain yet, but willing to be shown: |
| Tx:30.29 | is really all. The first rule, then, is not coercion but a simple | statement of a simple fact. You will not make decisions by yourself |
| Tx:30.80 | Here is the joyful | statement that there are no forms of evil which can overcome the Will |
| Tx:30.80 | your wish to make illusions real. And what is this except a simple | statement of the truth? |
| Tx:31.56 | not concern itself with content of the mind, but with the simple | statement that it thinks. And what can think has choice and can be |
| Tx:31.59 | free to enter in its sanctuary, clean and free of guilt. There is no | statement that the world is more afraid to hear than this: |

| W1:13.8 | to avoid resistance in one form or another to this concluding | statement. Whatever form such resistance may take, remind yourself |
| W1:13.8 | the “vengeance” of the “enemy.” You are not expected to believe the | statement at this point and will probably try to dismiss it as |
| W1:13.8 | very inexperienced in recognizing. Do not dwell on the concluding | statement, and try not even to think of it except during the exercise |
| W1:18.5 | Conclude the practice period by repeating the more general | statement: |
| W1:25.8 | slowly, without shifting your eyes until you have completed the | statement. Then move on to the next subject, and apply today's idea |

| W1:76.14 | ourselves as subject to other laws throughout the day. It is our | statement of freedom from all danger and all tyranny. It is our |
| W1:77.1 | you are one with God. Again, how simple is salvation! It is merely a | statement of your true Identity. It is this that we will celebrate |
| W1:77.6 | today. We are asking a real question at last. The answer is a simple | statement of a simple fact. You will receive the assurance that you |
| W1:80.3 | this. One problem—one solution. Accept the peace this simple | statement brings. |

| Tx:27.39 | it. It leaves no room to question its beliefs, except that what it | states takes question's form. |

| W1:156.1 | Today's idea but | states the simple truth that makes the thought of sin impossible. It |
| M:17.5 | by its mere presence, acknowledges a separation from God. It | states in the clearest form possible that the mind which thinks it |
| M:19.3 | All concepts of your brothers and yourself, all fears of future | states, and all concern about the past stem from injustice. Here is |
| M:26.3 | so be it. If it does not happen, so be it as well. All worldly | states must be illusory. If God were reached directly in sustained |

| Tx:3.6 | 3. Another way of | stating the above point is: Never confuse right- with |
| W1:13.8 | or covert fear which it may arouse. This is our first attempt at | stating an explicit cause and effect relationship of a kind which you |
| W1:20.4 | that you do not see now. Therefore, as you repeat the idea, you are | stating that you are determined to change your present state for a |
| W1:93.8 | for the first five minutes of every waking hour, we will begin by | stating the truth about our creation: |
status (6) | ||
| Tx:4.38 | a fact, after which no one attempts to evaluate it unless its | status as fact is questioned. Every idea to which the ego has |
| Tx:4.38 | as fact is questioned. Every idea to which the ego has accorded the | status of fact is questionable, because facts are in the realm of |
| Tx:5.71 | rather than eternity and have therefore changed your belief in your | status. Yet your election is both free and alterable. You do not |
| Tx:19.22 | if truth be left to judge it. But if the mistake is given the | status of truth, to what can it be brought? The “holiness” of sin is |
| Tx:19.27 | but without the loss of its appeal. And suddenly you change its | status from a sin to a mistake. Now you will not repeat it; you will |

| W2:WIB.2 | The body will not | stay. Yet this he sees as double “safety.” For the Son of God's |
| W2:272.2 | Today we pass illusions by. And if we hear temptation call to us to | stay and linger in a dream, we turn aside and ask ourselves if we, |
| M:7.3 | of God could be withdrawn. That was a mistake, but hardly one to | stay with. And so the teacher of God can only recognize it for what |

| Tx:5.83 | For example, “God will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is | stayed (or set) on Him,” a statement which means that God's peace is |

| Tx:13.29 | is no other way to look within and see the light of love shining as | steadily and as surely as God Himself has always loved His Son. And |

| Tx:3.31 | is the affirmation of truth. All your difficulties ultimately | stem from the fact that you do not recognize or know yourselves, each |

| Tx:2.26 | Intellectualization is a term which | stems from the mind-brain confusion. “Right-mindedness” is the device |
| Tx:4.5 | is a reasonably representative example of the kind of thinking which | stems from it. The idea of buying and selling implies precisely the |
| Tx:5.60 | ego's belief in it. This is the belief from which all guilt really | stems. |
| Tx:7.56 | The ingeniousness of the ego to preserve itself is enormous, but it | stems from the power of the mind, which the ego denies. This means |
| Tx:8.100 | can hurt you and so you are asking for nothing. Any desire which | stems from the ego is a desire for nothing and to ask for it is not a |
| Tx:10.44 | is always the natural extension of what it is. Everything that | stems from the ego is the natural outcome of its central belief, and |
| Tx:12.6 | murder. You do not yet understand that all your fear of this course | stems ultimately from this interpretation, but if you will consider |
| Tx:15.24 | and found littleness, remember this: Every decision which you make | stems from what you think you are and represents the value that you |
| Tx:18.3 | effect lies in the fragmented perception from which the behavior | stems. No one is seen complete. The body is emphasized, with special |
| Tx:21.52 | All sorts of questions may arise in it, but if the basic question | stems from reason, it will not ask it. Like all that stems from |

| W1:130.6 | point of view from which you see it. It is all a piece because it | stems from one emotion and reflects its source in everything you see. |
| W1:135.4 | Defense is frightening. It | stems from fear, increasing fear as each defense is made. You think |
| W2:319.2 | Father, Your Will is total. And the goal that | stems from it shares its totality. What aim but the salvation of the |
step (177) | ||

| Tx:2.45 | Perceiving the body as a temple is only the first | step in correcting this kind of distortion. It alters part of the |
| Tx:2.45 | of Atonement in physical terms is not appropriate. However, the next | step is to realize that a temple is not a building at all. Its real |
| Tx:2.53 | A major | step in the Atonement plan is to undo error at all levels. Illness, |
| Tx:2.82 | The first corrective | step is know first that this is an expression of fear. Then say to |
| Tx:2.109 | between free and imprisoned will cannot but continue. The first | step toward freedom must entail a sorting out of the false from the |
| Tx:3.32 | Questioning illusions is the first | step in undoing them. The miracle, or the “right answer,” corrects |
| Tx:4.36 | One-Mindedness can be restored. Right-mindedness dictates the next | step automatically, because right perception is uniformly without |
| Tx:4.52 | destroy what you have made. No one can see through a wall, but I can | step around it. Watch your minds for the scraps of meanness or you |
| Tx:4.53 | other. If you will really try to do this, you have taken the first | step toward preparing your mind for the Holy One to enter. We will |
| Tx:4.64 | minds carefully for any beliefs that hinder its accomplishment, and | step away from them. Judge how well you have done this by your own |
| Tx:4.91 | and, as you withdraw from him, I become distant to you. Your giant | step forward was to insist on a “collaborative venture.” This does |
| Tx:5.12 | here to use the literal meaning of “carried” over since the last | step is taken by God. |
| Tx:5.95 | to be wholly joyous if that is how you feel. Therefore, the first | step in the undoing is to recognize that you actively decided wrongly |
| Tx:6.68 | This is a very preliminary | step, and the only one you must take for yourself. It is not even |
| Tx:6.68 | take for yourself. It is not even necessary that you complete the | step yourself, but it is necessary that you turn in that direction. |
| Tx:6.69 | This | step appears to exacerbate conflict rather than resolve it, because |
| Tx:6.69 | conflict rather than resolve it, because it is the beginning | step in reversing your perception and turning it right-side up. This |
| Tx:6.69 | direction would not have been necessary. Some people remain at this | step for a very long time, experiencing very acute conflict. At this |
| Tx:6.69 | point, many try to accept the conflict rather than take the next | step towards its resolution. Having taken the first step, however, |
| Tx:6.69 | take the next step towards its resolution. Having taken the first | step, however, they will be helped. Once they have chosen what they |
| Tx:6.72 | fundamental change, because the mind is fundamental. The first | step in the reversal or undoing process, then, is the undoing of the |
| Tx:6.79 | This is still a preliminary | step since having and being are still not equated. It is, however, |
| Tx:6.79 | are still not equated. It is, however, more advanced than the first | step, which is really only a thought reversal. The second step is a |
| Tx:6.79 | the first step, which is really only a thought reversal. The second | step is a positive affirmation of what you want. This, then, is a |
| Tx:6.79 | step is a positive affirmation of what you want. This, then, is a | step in the direction out of conflict since it means that |
| Tx:6.80 | implies that the desirable has degrees. Therefore, although this | step is essential for the ultimate decision, it is clearly not the |
| Tx:6.80 | be difficult if God Himself created you as a creator. The second | step, then, is still perceptual, although it is a giant step toward |
| Tx:6.80 | The second step, then, is still perceptual, although it is a giant | step toward the unified perception which parallels God's knowing. |
| Tx:6.81 | As you take this | step and hold this direction, you will be pushing toward the center |
| Tx:6.81 | where the fundamental change will occur. You are only beginning this | step now, but you have started on this way by realizing that only one |
| Tx:6.81 | consistently, and so your progress is intermittent, but the second | step is easier than the first because it follows. The very fact that |
| Tx:6.86 | This is a major | step toward fundamental change. Yet it is still a lesson in thought |
| Tx:6.86 | was essentially the identification of what is more desirable. This | step, which follows from the second as the second follows from the |
| Tx:6.87 | While the first | step seems to increase conflict and the second step still entails it |
| Tx:6.87 | While the first step seems to increase conflict and the second | step still entails it to some extent, this one calls for consistent |
| Tx:6.87 | order of difficulty but with clear cut priority for vigilance. This | step is unequivocal in that it teaches there must be no exceptions, |
| Tx:6.88 | is what you must learn. The way to learn it is inherent in the third | step, which brings together the lessons implied in the others and |

| Tx:6.91 | The third | step is thus one of protection for your minds, allowing you to |
| Tx:6.95 | The third | step, then, is a statement of what you want to believe and entails a |
| Tx:6.95 | everything else. I told you that you were just beginning the second | step, but I also told you that the third one follows it. The Holy |

| Tx:7.6 | the timeless. He can therefore tell you something about this last | step, although this one you must know yourself, since by it you know |
| Tx:7.34 | work through you to teach you He is in you. This is an intermediary | step toward the knowledge that you are in God, because you are part |

| Tx:11.9 | the need to recognize fear and face it without disguise as a crucial | step in the undoing of the ego. Consider how well the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:12.70 | that everything you need is temporary and will but last until you | step aside from all your needs and learn that all of them have been |
| Tx:13.3 | common with knowledge, making transfer to it possible. Yet the last | step must be taken by God because the last step in your redemption, |
| Tx:13.3 | it possible. Yet the last step must be taken by God because the last | step in your redemption, which seems to be in the future, was |
| Tx:15.85 | part which God Himself plays in the Atonement, for it is the only | step in it He understands. Therefore, in this there will be no delay |
| Tx:16.3 | keep. Do not use empathy to make the past real and so perpetuate it. | Step gently aside and let the healing be done for you. Keep but one |
| Tx:16.31 | quite unharmed and will at last emerge as yourself. This is the last | step in the readiness for God. Be not unwilling now. You are too |
| Tx:16.42 | of the bridge to timelessness you understand nothing. But as you | step lightly across it, upheld by timelessness, you are directed |
| Tx:17.8 | the strongest thing that touches on this world at all. This little | step, so small it has escaped your notice, is a stride through time |
| Tx:17.9 | This | step, the smallest ever taken by anything, is still the greatest |
| Tx:17.10 | barely have time to thank God for it. For God will take the last | step swiftly when you have reached the real world and have been made |

| W1:169.3 | Grace is not learned. The final | step must go beyond all learning. Grace is not the goal this course |

| W1:193.17 | there is a way to look on everything that lets it be to you another | step to Him and to salvation of the world. |

| W1:196.11 | and yourself His Son. Pray that the instant may be soon—today. | Step back from fear and make advance to love. |
| W1:197.1 | Here is the second | step we take to free your mind from the belief in outside force |
| W2:I.2 | for our God and Father. He has promised He will take the final | step Himself. And we are sure His promises are kept. We have come far |
| W2:I.4 | but His Word upon our minds and hearts. And wait for Him to take the | step to us that He has told us, through His Voice, He would not fail |

| W2:WIRW.5 | Now He waits but that one instant more for God to take His final | step, and time has disappeared, taking perception with it as it goes |
| W2:297.2 | ways, how sure their final outcome, and how truly faithful is every | step in my salvation set already and accomplished by Your grace. |
| W2:309.2 | The | step I take today, my Father, is my sure release from idle dreams of |

strain (30) | ||
| Tx:2.76 | Fear is always a sign of | strain, which arises whenever the will to do conflicts with what you |
| Tx:2.78 | to do so. This produces consistent behavior but entails great | strain within the self. |
| Tx:2.80 | level can shift the error from the first to the second type of | strain described above but will not obliterate the fear. It is |
| Tx:2.80 | strength to do comes from your own undivided will to do. There is no | strain in doing God's Will as soon as you recognize that it is also |
| Tx:2.81 | it is conflicted in what it wills, thus producing inevitable | strain because willing and doing become discordant. This cannot be |
| Tx:3.65 | of being tired, but you are very capable of wearying yourselves. The | strain of constant judgment is virtually intolerable. It is a curious |
| Tx:4.104 | the ego blocks your natural impulse to help, placing you under the | strain of divided will. You may then be tempted to withdraw to allow |

| Tx:7.108 | environment and does not function well. Everything he does becomes a | strain, because he was not created for the environment that he has |
| Tx:7.108 | God. That is the only environment in which he will not experience | strain, because that is where he belongs. It is also the only |
| Tx:10.61 | Learning of Christ is easy, for to perceive with Him involves no | strain at all. His perceptions are your natural awareness, and it is |
| Tx:11.6 | your awareness if you perceive them truly. And all your sense of | strain comes from your attempts not to do just this. |
| Tx:13.74 | it for them and gives them what they will without effort, | strain, or the impossible burden of deciding what they want and need |

| Tx:17.76 | greater than you realize. But to answer truth with faith entails no | strain at all. |
| Tx:17.77 | To you who have acknowledged the call of your Redeemer, the | strain of not responding to His call seems to be greater than before. |
| Tx:17.77 | call seems to be greater than before. This is not so. Before, the | strain was there but you attributed it to something else, believing |
| Tx:17.77 | and fiery dreams of hell. And it was nothing but the intolerable | strain of refusing to give faith to truth and see its evident reality. |
| Tx:24.15 | what you are seems silent and unheard before its “mightiness.” You | strain your ears to hear its soundless voice, and yet the Call of God |

| W1:2.1 | not attempt to include everything in an area or you will introduce | strain. Merely glance easily and fairly quickly around you, trying to |
| W1:12.9 | too long. Terminate the exercises whenever you experience a sense of | strain. |
| W1:16.9 | periods are recommended if you find them relatively effortless. If | strain is experienced, three will be enough. The length of the |
| W1:35.10 | be intervals in which nothing specific occurs to you. Do not | strain to think up specific things to fill the interval, but merely |
| W1:42.8 | with eyes open, then closed, then open, and so on, than it is to | strain in order to find suitable thoughts. |
| W1:44.4 | if you find the time merely slipping by with little or no sense of | strain. The form of exercise we will use today is the most natural |
| W1:62.3 | forgiveness will do for you? It will remove all sense of weakness, | strain, and fatigue from your mind. It will take away all fear and |
| W1:65.8 | of the idle thoughts which escaped your attention before, but do not | strain or make undue effort in doing this. Then tell yourself: |

| W1:76.3 | of the freedom in the recognition that you are not bound by all the | strange and twisted laws which you have set up to save you. You |
| W1:76.9 | They would not save, but damn in Heaven's name. Yet they are no more | strange than other “laws” you hold must be obeyed to make you safe. |

| Tx:16.28 | bridging it. His little efforts are powerfully supplemented by the | strength of Heaven and by the united will of all who make Heaven what |
| Tx:16.54 | must be recognized for what it is—a senseless ritual in which | strength is extracted from the death of God and invested in His |
| Tx:17.70 | conception of the infinite that you have no idea how great the | strength that goes with you. And you can use this in perfect safety. |
| Tx:18.28 | you may take can separate your desire from His Will and from His | strength. I hold your hand as surely as you agreed to take each |
| Tx:18.29 | to bring the darkness to light, and this willingness has given | strength to everyone who would remain in darkness. Those who would |
| Tx:18.34 | to be, you must be interfering with His Will. You do not need the | strength of willingness to come from you, but only from His Will. |
| Tx:18.63 | You still have too much faith in the body as a source of | strength. What plans do you make that do not involve its comfort or |
| Tx:20.11 | unto you for his release. For you have asked for and been given the | strength to look upon this final obstacle and see no thorns nor nails |
| Tx:20.15 | that called to you. Give joyously to one another the freedom and the | strength to lead you there. And come before each other's holy altar |
| Tx:20.15 | to lead you there. And come before each other's holy altar where the | strength and freedom wait, to offer and receive the bright awareness |
| Tx:20.71 | Is the pitifully little the perfect choice to call upon for | strength? Judgment will seem to make your savior weak. Yet it is you |
| Tx:20.71 | will seem to make your savior weak. Yet it is you who need his | strength. There is no problem, no event or situation, no perplexity |
| Tx:21.18 | power of your wanting must first be recognized. You must accept its | strength and not its weakness. You must perceive that what is strong |
| Tx:21.47 | since first the ego came into your minds. The ego's weakness is its | strength. The song of freedom, which sings the praises of another |
| Tx:21.69 | desire. And it is by his own desire that he is freed. Such is his | strength and not his weakness. He is at his own mercy. And where he |
| Tx:21.72 | The army of the powerless must be disbanded in the presence of | strength. Those who are strong are never treacherous because they |
| Tx:22.47 | undefended and wholly undefending, for in this quiet state alone is | strength and power. Here can no weakness enter, for here is no attack |
| Tx:22.48 | —how little and how meaningless! How insignificant before the quiet | strength of those whom love has joined! This is your “enemy”—a |
| Tx:22.54 | This holy relationship, lovely in its innocence, mighty in | strength, and blazing with a light far brighter than the sun which |
| Tx:23.1 | the opposite of frailty and weakness is sinlessness? Innocence is | strength, and nothing else is strong. The sinless cannot fear, for |
| Tx:23.1 | sinless cannot fear, for sin of any kind is weakness. The show of | strength attack would use to cover frailty conceals it not, for how |
| Tx:23.3 | from sin and fear, and happily returned to love. They share the | strength of love because they looked on innocence. And every error |
| Tx:23.55 | Those with the | strength of God in their awareness could never think of battle. What |
| Tx:24.44 | much as yours. And yet, because they serve a different purpose, the | strength their purpose holds is given them. And what they see and |
| Tx:24.62 | snatch it from Him. What is this son that you have made to be your | strength? What is this child of earth on whom such love is lavished? |
| Tx:25.19 | His sinlessness but pictures yours. His gentleness becomes your | strength, and both will gladly look within and see the holiness that |
| Tx:25.40 | it remain useless to both. Together, it will give to each an equal | strength to save the other and save himself along with him. Forgiven |
| Tx:25.71 | to save from punishment. But vengeance without love has gained in | strength by being separate and apart from love. And what but |
| Tx:27.29 | weaken it, and weakened power is a contradiction in ideas. Weak | strength is meaningless, and power used to weaken is employed to |
| Tx:27.60 | a miracle is to accomplish this. And God Himself has guaranteed the | strength of miracles for what they witness to. Be witnesses unto the |
| Tx:28.66 | world will wash away, and yet this house will stand forever, for its | strength lies not within itself alone. It is an ark of safety, |
| Tx:29.8 | the body to maintain. You do not fear its weakness, but its lack of | strength or weakness. Would you recognize that nothing stands between |
| Tx:29.20 | proof of having. Only those who think that God is lessened by their | strength could fail to understand this must be so. For who could give |
| Tx:29.53 | littleness and loss. And thus must seek beyond his little self for | strength to raise his head and stand apart from all the misery the |
| Tx:30.55 | the dreams of what you never were and seek no more to substitute the | strength of idle wishes for the Will of God. |
| Tx:30.74 | Forgiveness recognized as merited will heal. It gives the miracle its | strength to overlook illusions. This is how you learn that you must |
| Tx:31.83 | to feel. It sets the limits on what he can do; its power is the only | strength he has; his grasp cannot exceed its tiny reach. Would you be |
| Tx:31.86 | is this explained! You always choose between your weakness and the | strength of Christ in you. And what you choose is what you think is |
| Tx:31.86 | you have brought your weakness unto Him, and He has given you His | strength instead. |
| Tx:31.87 | is yours because He is the only power that is real in you. His | strength is yours because He is the Self that God created as His only |
| Tx:31.88 | see it as it is—another chance to choose again and let Christ's | strength prevail in every circumstance and every place you raised an |
| Tx:31.88 | saviors of the world who see like Him are merely those who chose His | strength instead of their own weakness, seen apart from Him. They |
| Tx:31.91 | Thus is Christ's | strength invited to prevail, replacing all your weakness with the |
| Tx:31.91 | strength invited to prevail, replacing all your weakness with the | strength that comes from God and that can never fail. And thus are |
| W1:42.1 | of the course. You will see because it is the Will of God. It is His | strength, not your own, that gives you power. And it is His gift to |
| W1:42.2 | God is indeed your | strength. And what He gives is truly given. This means that you can |
| W1:42.2 | You cannot but be in the right place at the right time. Such is the | strength of God. Such are His gifts. |

| W1:47.3 | of all situations, telling you exactly what to do to call upon His | strength and His protection. There are no exceptions because God has |
| W1:47.4 | we will try to reach past your own weakness to the Source of real | strength. Four five-minute practice periods are necessary today, and |
| W1:47.5 | God is the | Strength in which I trust. |
| W1:47.6 | is not by trusting yourself that you will gain confidence. But the | strength of God in you is successful in all things. |
| W1:47.7 | You must also gain an awareness that your confidence in your real | strength is fully justified in every respect and in all circumstances. |
| W1:47.8 | you where nothing is impossible. There is a place in you where the | strength of God abides. |
| W1:47.9 | that peace is your right because you are giving your trust to the | strength of God. |
| W1:48.3 | The presence of fear is a sure sign that you are trusting in your own | strength. The awareness that there is nothing to fear shows that |
| W1:48.3 | which you recognize as yet, you have remembered God and let His | strength take the place of yours. The instant you are willing to do |
| W1:59.3 | [42] God is my | strength. Vision is His gift. Let me not look to my own eyes to see |
| W1:60.3 | [47] God is the | Strength in which I trust. It is not my own strength through which I |
| W1:60.3 | [47] God is the Strength in which I trust. It is not my own | strength through which I forgive. It is through the strength of God |
| W1:60.3 | It is not my own strength through which I forgive. It is through the | strength of God in me, which I am remembering as I forgive. As I |
| W1:60.3 | on earth. I forgive all things because I feel the stirring of His | strength in me. And I begin to remember the love I chose to forget, |
| W1:62.3 | your own weakness, while every time you forgive you call upon the | strength of Christ in you. Do you not then begin to understand what |
| W1:73.9 | No idle wishes can detain us nor deceive us with an illusion of | strength. Today let your will be done. And end forever the insane |
| W1:91.4 | they may be, have strong support. Did you but realize how great this | strength, your doubts would vanish. Today we will devote ourselves to |
| W1:91.4 | Today we will devote ourselves to the attempt to let you feel this | strength. When you have felt the strength in you which makes all |
| W1:91.4 | to the attempt to let you feel this strength. When you have felt the | strength in you which makes all miracles within your easy reach, you |
| W1:91.4 | sense of weakness hides will leap into awareness as you feel the | strength in you. |
| W1:91.5 | Your will remains your teacher, and your will has all the | strength to do what it desires. You can escape the body if you |
| W1:91.5 | You can escape the body if you choose. You can experience the | strength in you. |
| W1:91.8 | correction, being a mistake. The truth of what you are calls on the | strength in you to bring to your awareness what the mistake concealed. |
| W1:91.12 | truths about yourself. Concentrate particularly on the experience of | strength. Remember that all sense of weakness is associated with the |
| W1:91.13 | that your efforts, however meager, are fully supported by the | strength of God and all His thoughts. It is from Them your strength |
| W1:91.13 | by the strength of God and all His thoughts. It is from Them your | strength will come. It is through Their strong support that you will |
| W1:91.13 | will come. It is through Their strong support that you will feel the | strength in you. They are united with you in this practice period in |
| W1:91.13 | Theirs is the light in which you will see miracles because Their | strength is yours. Their strength becomes your eyes that you may see. |
| W1:91.13 | which you will see miracles because Their strength is yours. Their | strength becomes your eyes that you may see. |
| W1:92.1 | extension of the previous one. You do not think of light in terms of | strength and darkness in terms of weakness. That is because your idea |
| W1:92.3 | It is God's | strength in you that is the light in which you see, as it is His Mind |
| W1:92.3 | light in which you see, as it is His Mind with which you think. His | strength denies your weakness. It is your weakness that sees through |
| W1:92.4 | Strength overlooks these things by seeing past appearances. It keeps | |
| W1:92.5 | Strength is the truth about you; weakness is an idol falsely | |
| W1:92.5 | about you; weakness is an idol falsely worshiped and adored that | strength may be dispelled and darkness rule where God appointed that |
| W1:92.5 | and darkness rule where God appointed that there should be light. | Strength comes from truth and shines with light its Source has given |
| W1:92.6 | and can only will for happiness and peace for everyone. It gives its | strength to everyone who asks, in limitless supply. It sees that lack |

| Tx:5.58 | to hold and share. The heart is pure to hold it and the hands are | strong to give it. We cannot lose. My judgment is as strong as the |
| Tx:5.58 | the hands are strong to give it. We cannot lose. My judgment is as | strong as the wisdom of God, in Whose heart and hands we have our |
| Tx:5.87 | powerful release mechanism had Freud not decided to involve it in a | strong defense system because he perceived it as an attack. |
| Tx:5.89 | fixated on God in your creation, and the pull of this fixation is so | strong that you will never overcome it. The reason is perfectly |
| Tx:8.73 | him. If you did, you would not consider sickness such a | strong witness on behalf of the ego's views. |
| Tx:8.103 | Attempts of any kind to deny what is are fearful, and if they are | strong, they will induce panic. Willing against reality, though |

| Tx:10.35 | ego blames at all. Self-blame is therefore ego identification and as | strong an ego defense as blaming others. You cannot enter God's |
| Tx:10.56 | and its witnesses are consistent. The case for insanity is | strong to the insane. For reasoning ends at its beginning, and no |

| Tx:11.43 | Only love is strong because it is undivided. The | strong do not attack because they see no need to do so. Before the |
| Tx:11.44 | If your attacks on yourself have failed to weaken you, you are still | strong. You therefore have no need to “equalize” the situation to |
| Tx:12.1 | guilt stands in the way of your remembering God, Whose pull is so | strong that you cannot resist it. On this issue, then, the deepest |
| Tx:13.33 | and all my faith and my belief I offer unto it. My faith in you is | strong as all the love I give my Father. My trust in you is without |
| Tx:13.77 | of the Son of God, the Holy Spirit is your only friend. He is the | strong protector of your innocence, which sets you free. And it is |
| Tx:15.59 | that, when another calls on God for love, your call remains as | strong. Nor do you think that, by God's answer to him, your hope of |
| Tx:15.77 | of God in Him and you is joined in real relationship, so holy and so | strong that it can overcome even this without fear. It is through the |
| Tx:16.64 | What is little and insignificant is magnified, and what is | strong and powerful cut down to littleness. In the transition there |
| Tx:17.73 | from loneliness because the truth has come. Its call for faith is | strong. Use not your faithlessness against it, for it calls you to |
| Tx:18.90 | back anyone willing to climb above it and see the sun. It is not | strong enough to stop a button's fall nor hold a feather. [Nothing |
| Tx:19.110 | in still is faithful and watches over you in faith so gentle yet so | strong that it would lift you far beyond the veil and place the Son |
| Tx:20.14 | alike. Your gift has saved him from the thorns and nails, and his | strong arm is free to guide you safely through them and beyond. Walk |
| Tx:20.25 | long forgotten. Strengthen your hold and raise your eyes unto your | strong companion, in whom the meaning of your freedom lies. He seemed |
| Tx:21.18 | its strength and not its weakness. You must perceive that what is | strong enough to make a world can let it go and can accept correction |
| Tx:21.21 | not that you are faithless, for your belief and trust in this is | strong indeed. |
| Tx:21.33 | believe that he is powerless. Thus is he faithless to himself, but | strong in faith in his illusions about himself. For faith, |
| Tx:21.56 | madness, nor can it be adjusted to fit its end. Faith and belief are | strong in madness, guiding perception toward what the mind has |
| Tx:21.72 | Frantic and loud and | strong the dark ones seem to be. Yet they know not their enemy, |
| Tx:21.72 | must be disbanded in the presence of strength. Those who are | strong are never treacherous because they have no need to dream of |
| Tx:22.42 | which he would protect from harm. And each will be the other's | strong protector from everything that seems to rise between you. So |
| Tx:22.45 | to walk the way of truth when only weakness interferes? You are the | strong ones in this seeming conflict. And you need no defense. |
| Tx:23.1 | weakness is sinlessness? Innocence is strength, and nothing else is | strong. The sinless cannot fear, for sin of any kind is weakness. The |
| Tx:23.1 | frailty conceals it not, for how can the unreal be hidden? No one is | strong who has an enemy, and no one can attack unless he thinks he |
| Tx:23.23 | meet only to conflict but not to join. One becomes weak, the other | strong by his defeat. And fear of God and of each other now appears |
| Tx:23.28 | the mechanisms of madness are seen emerging here: the “enemy,” made | strong by keeping hidden the valuable inheritance which should be |
| Tx:24.13 | peace. Who can attack his savior and cut him down yet recognize his | strong support? Who can detract from his omnipotence yet share his |
| Tx:24.63 | to him and thus returns to you. All of the love and care, the | strong protection, the thought by day and night, the deep concern, |
| Tx:25.50 | this world's foundation sure as love, dependable as Heaven, and as | strong as God Himself. The world is safe from love to everyone who |
| Tx:25.51 | It cannot be the “sinner's” wish for death is just as | strong as is God's Will for life. Nor can the basis of a world He did |
| Tx:25.64 | salvation needs. Nor is it necessary that your faith in it be | strong, unswerving, and without attack from all beliefs opposed to |
| Tx:25.71 | And thus is love perceived as weak and vengeance | strong. For love has lost when judgment left its side and is too weak |
| Tx:29.32 | of endless peace surrounds you gently in its soft embrace, so | strong and quiet, tranquil in the might of its Creator; nothing can |
| Tx:30.2 | time you wake, will put you well ahead. And if you find resistance | strong and dedication weak, you are not ready. Do not fight yourself. |
| Tx:31.3 | obvious. Say not you cannot learn them. For your power to learn is | strong enough to teach you that your will is not your own, your |
| W1:44.5 | exercise we will use today, but you may find that you will encounter | strong resistance. The reason is very simple. While you practice in |
| W1:73.1 | they can make a world of illusions in which your belief can be very | strong. But they are idle indeed in terms of creation. They make |
| W1:91.4 | not alone in this. Your efforts, however little they may be, have | strong support. Did you but realize how great this strength, your |
| W1:91.11 | I am not weak, but | strong. I am not helpless, but all powerful. I am not limited, but |
| W1:91.13 | It is from Them your strength will come. It is through Their | strong support that you will feel the strength in you. They are |
| W1:92.7 | love. In darkness it remains to hide itself and dreams that it is | strong and conquering, a victor over limitations that but grow in |
| W1:94.2 | is sinlessness. If you remain as God created you, you must be | strong and light must be in you. He Who ensured your sinlessness must |
| W1:94.2 | cannot obscure the glory of the Son of God. You stand in light, | strong in the sinlessness in which you were created and in which you |

| W1:106.1 | is; then you will hear the mighty Voice of truth, quiet in power, | strong in stillness, and completely certain in its messages. |
| W1:132.1 | indeed. The thoughts you hold are mighty, and illusions are as | strong in their effects as is the truth. A madman thinks the world he |
| W1:135.8 | need of no defense. This cannot be too often emphasized. It will be | strong and healthy if the mind does not abuse it by assigning it to |
| W1:135.24 | If I defend myself, I am attacked. But in defenselessness, I will be | strong, and I will learn what my defenses hide. |

| W1:138.8 | hold of great intensity and grip the mind with terror and anxiety so | strong that it will not relinquish its ideas about its own |
| W1:151.1 | irrational defense because it is irrational. And its defense seems | strong, convincing, and without a doubt because of all the doubting |
| W1:153.19 | We clothe ourselves in it as we prepare to meet the day. We rise up | strong in Christ and let our weakness disappear as we remember that |
| W1:I2.1 | point of firming up your willingness to make your weak commitment | strong, your scattered goals blend into one intent. You are not asked |

| W2:WF.5 | what to do through Him Who is your Guide, your Savior and Defender, | strong in hope, and certain of your ultimate success. He has forgiven |
| M:25.5 | gifts, the ego has been seriously threatened. It may still be | strong enough to rally under this new temptation to win back strength |

| Tx:5.23 | of His Will for which the Holy Spirit speaks. The call to return is | stronger than the call to depart, but it speaks in a different way. |
| Tx:5.24 | for God is always quiet, because it speaks of peace. Yet peace is | stronger than war because it heals. War is division, not increase. No |
| Tx:5.29 | on me to remind you how to heal by sharing my decision and making it | stronger. As we share this goal we increase its power to attract the |

| Tx:6.62 | the body but the body cannot heal the mind, then the mind must be | stronger. Every miracle demonstrates this. |
| Tx:8.97 | No mind can believe that its will is | stronger than God's. If, then, a mind believes that its will is |
| Tx:12.12 | you from this. For still deeper than the ego's foundation, and much | stronger than it will ever be, is your intense and burning love of |

| Tx:15.71 | the attraction of what you do not want seems to be much | stronger than the attraction of what you do. For each one thinks that |
| Tx:16.29 | Your bridge is builded | stronger than you think, and your foot is planted firmly on it. Have |
| Tx:19.33 | His Will and overcome it and give His Son a will apart from His and | stronger. And each part of God's fragmented creation would have a |
| Tx:22.48 | heart throughout the universe forever sings as one? Which is the | stronger? Is it this tiny mouse or everything that God created? You |
| Tx:31.7 | your chosen task, the lesson which reflects the love of God is | stronger still. And you will learn God's Son is innocent and see |
| W1:27.1 | Today's idea expresses something | stronger than mere determination. It gives vision priority among your |

| W1:R3.13 | that we begin again on solid ground, with firmer footsteps and with | stronger faith. |
| W1:136.10 | Thus is the body | stronger than the truth, which asks you live but cannot overcome your |
| W1:136.10 | and God's design for the salvation of His Son opposed by a decision | stronger than His Will. His Son is dust, the Father incomplete, and |
| W1:163.4 | Here is the opposite of God proclaimed as lord of all creation, | stronger than God's Will for life, the endlessness of love and |
| W1:163.7 | killed, apparently, by those who did not want him to survive. Their | stronger will could triumph over His, and so eternal life gave way to |

| W1:25.8 | until you have completed the statement. Then move on to the next | subject, and apply today's idea as before. |
| W1:26.6 | which tends to recur in your thoughts during the day is a suitable | subject. You will not be able to use very many for any one practice |
| W1:28.6 | In using the table as a | subject for applying the idea for today, you are therefore really |
| W1:28.6 | of the universe. You will be making this same request of each | subject which you use in the practice periods. And you are making a |

| W1:5.5 | hard to be indiscriminate and to avoid giving greater weight to some | subjects than to others. It might help to precede the exercises with |
| W1:12.5 | an “unsatisfying” one. All terms which cross your mind are suitable | subjects for today's exercises. Their seeming quality does not matter. |
| W1:14.6 | Suitable | subjects for the application of today's idea also include anything |

| W1:29.4 | repeating the idea to yourself, and then apply it to randomly chosen | subjects about you, naming each one specifically. Try to avoid the |

| W1:43.5 | time, applying the idea specifically to what you see. Four or five | subjects for this phase of the exercises are sufficient. You might |

| Tx:4.32 | The ego never gives out of abundance, because it was made as a | substitute for it. That is why the concept of “getting” arose in the |
| Tx:10.53 | relationships and thus without meaning. The ego will always | substitute chaos for meaning, for if separation is salvation, harmony |
| Tx:13.45 | with truth. This is the reconciliation which the ego would | substitute for your reconciliation unto sanity and unto peace. The |

| Tx:15.23 | have judged yourself unworthy of it. And whatever you offer as a | substitute is much too poor a gift to satisfy you. It is essential |

| Tx:16.7 | by enveloping it in healing wings. Let this be, and do not try to | substitute your “miracle” for this. We once said that if a brother |
| Tx:16.37 | render you complete. The special love relationship is but a shabby | substitute for what makes you whole in truth, not in illusion. Your |
| Tx:16.51 | in strict accordance with the ego's goals, is to destroy reality and | substitute illusion. For the ego is itself an illusion, and only |
| Tx:16.55 | delights you can bring death to the eternal. Nor can your chosen | substitute for the wholeness of God have any influence at all upon |
| Tx:16.74 | You have denied that it is there, and the relationship becomes your | substitute for it. And vengeance becomes your substitute for |
| Tx:16.74 | becomes your substitute for it. And vengeance becomes your | substitute for Atonement, and the escape from vengeance becomes your |
| Tx:17.28 | holy relationship shares God's purpose, rather than aiming to make a | substitute for it. Every special relationship which you have made is |
| Tx:17.28 | for it. Every special relationship which you have made is a | substitute for God's Will and glorifies yours instead of His because |
| Tx:17.29 | when truth calls to you, as it does constantly, you answer with a | substitute. Every special relationship which you have ever undertaken |
| Tx:17.49 | Now the ego counsels thus— | substitute for this another relationship to which your former goal |
| Tx:18.1 | To | substitute is to accept instead. If you would but consider exactly |
| Tx:18.1 | goal the Holy Spirit has given you and would accomplish for you. To | substitute is to choose between, renouncing one in favor of the |
| Tx:18.9 | Him but a little faith in each other, to help Him show you that no | substitute you made for Heaven can keep you from it. In you there is |
| Tx:18.9 | Heaven can keep you from it. In you there is no separation, and no | substitute can keep you from each other. Your reality was God's |

| Tx:18.15 | the best example you could have of how perception can be utilized to | substitute illusions for truth. You do not take them seriously on |
| Tx:18.17 | are very fearful, but this you are not willing to accept. And so you | substitute the fantasy that reality is fearful, not what you would do |
| Tx:18.37 | add nothing to His plan. But to receive it, I must be willing not to | substitute my own in place of it. |
| Tx:20.53 | is frail as is a snowflake, but without its loveliness. Is this the | substitute you want for the eternal blessing of the holy instant and |

| Tx:23.30 | a final principle of chaos comes to the rescue. It holds there is a | substitute for love. This is the “magic” that will cure all of your |
| Tx:23.30 | of the secret ingredient which would give meaning to your life. The | substitute for love, born of your enmity to one another, must be |
| Tx:23.30 | born of your enmity to one another, must be salvation. It has no | substitute, and there is only one. And all your relationships have |
| Tx:23.31 | end His vengeance upon both, for in His madness He must have this | substitute for love and kill you both. You who believe you walk in |
| Tx:23.31 | are the laws you made for your salvation. They hold in place the | substitute for Heaven which you prefer. This is their purpose; they |
| Tx:23.33 | look upon, is lifted to the throne of love, its dying conqueror, its | substitute, the savior from salvation. How lovely do the laws of fear |
| Tx:24.2 | as does suffering follow guilt and freedom sinlessness. There is no | substitute for peace. What God creates has no alternative. The truth |
| Tx:24.3 | but one belief, one offering, and love is gone because you asked a | substitute to take its place. And now must war, the substitute for |
| Tx:24.3 | you asked a substitute to take its place. And now must war, the | substitute for peace, come with the one alternative that you can |
| Tx:24.23 | for bargains and for compromise that would establish sin love's | substitute and serve it faithfully. And no relationship that holds |
| Tx:26.45 | take His place. There is no other friend. What God appointed has no | substitute, for what illusion can replace the truth? |
| Tx:29.43 | will never answer in His place. There is no other answer you can | substitute and find the happiness His answer brings. Seek not outside |
| Tx:29.67 | seen as idols which betray. It is a dream in which no one is used to | substitute for something else nor interposed between the thoughts the |
| Tx:30.39 | It is not form you seek. What form can be a | substitute for God the Father's love? What form can take the place of |

| Tx:30.56 | in reality. And even in illusions it but asks forgiveness be the | substitute for fear. Such is the only rule for happy dreams. The gap |
| W1:4.5 | you recognize as harmful. This practice is useful, but is not a | substitute for the more random procedures to be followed for the |
| W1:64.8 | Let me not forget my function. Let me not try to | substitute mine for God's. Let me forgive and be happy. |

| W1:140.1 | where it thinks the mind exists. Its forms of healing thus must | substitute illusion for illusion. One belief in sickness takes |
| W1:152.15 | will answer, for He speaks for you and for your Father. He will | substitute the peace of God for all your frantic thoughts, the truth |
| W1:182.3 | builds in vain. The home he seeks cannot be made by him. There is no | substitute for Heaven. All he ever made was hell. |
| W1:195.9 | for us or for our future. Gratitude becomes the single thought we | substitute for these insane perceptions. God has cared for us and |
| W1:198.5 | lessons He would teach, instead of trying to dismiss His words and | substitute your own in place of His? |
| W2:287.1 | Where would I go but Heaven? What could be a | substitute for happiness? What gift could I prefer before the peace |
| M:13.4 | of his Father's Love. Who in his sane mind chooses nothing as a | substitute for everything? |
| M:16.8 | on himself alone. Forget not this is magic and that magic is a sorry | substitute for true assistance. It is not good enough for God's |
| M:16.9 | temptation. For all temptation is nothing more than the attempt to | substitute another will for God's. These attempts may indeed seem |
| M:16.10 | There is no | substitute for the Will of God. In simple statement, it is to this |
| M:16.10 | it is to this fact that the teacher of God devotes his day. Each | substitute he may accept as real can but deceive him. But he is safe |
| M:29.1 | of some of the major concepts in the text and workbook. It is not a | substitute for either, but merely a supplement. While it is called a |
substituted (2) | ||
| Tx:18.9 | share. In the mad world outside you, nothing can be shared but only | substituted, and sharing and substituting have nothing in common in |
| W1:5.4 | But again, this should not be | substituted for practice periods in which you first search your mind |
substitutes (18) | ||
| Tx:1.83 | between the time a miracle takes and the time it covers. It | substitutes for learning that might have taken thousands of years. It |
| Tx:15.53 | by which to judge your brothers. Once this is gone, the Holy Spirit | substitutes His frame of reference for it. His frame of reference is |
| Tx:17.29 | which you do not recognize simply because you have raised their | substitutes to such predominance that when truth calls to you, as it |
| Tx:17.64 | The | substitutes for aspects of the situation are the witnesses to your |
| Tx:18.2 | The Holy Spirit never uses | substitutes. Where the ego perceives one person as a replacement for |
| Tx:18.12 | Whom God has called should hear no | substitutes. Their call is but an echo of the original error which |
| Tx:19.58 | sees it. For guilt creeps in where happiness has been removed and | substitutes for it. Communion is another kind of completion which |
| Tx:20.76 | and sounds are looked on happily and heard with joy. They are His | substitutes for all the terrifying sights and screaming sounds the |
| Tx:28.46 | with him, and where you join His Son, the Father is. Who seeks for | substitutes when he perceives he has lost nothing? Who would want to |
| Tx:28.59 | before the Will of God, Whose promises he shares. And what he | substitutes is not his will, who has made promise of himself to God. |
| Tx:29.53 | Let not their form deceive you. Idols are but | substitutes for your reality. In some way, you believe they will |

| W1:89.5 | to God's plan for my salvation. I would make no exceptions and no | substitutes. I want all of Heaven and only Heaven, as God wills me to |
| W1:104.1 | which has instead received the gifts it made where His belong, as | substitutes for them. |
| W1:117.2 | and nothing else brings joy. And so I choose to entertain no | substitutes for love. |
| W1:118.2 | Today I will accept God's peace and joy in glad exchange for all the | substitutes which I have made for happiness and peace. |
| M:10.1 | misunderstood by the world. It is actually confused with wisdom and | substitutes for truth. As the world uses the term, an individual is |
| M:11.3 | —God has sent His Judgment to answer yours. Gently His Judgment | substitutes for yours. And through this substitution is the |

| Tx:18.9 | you, nothing can be shared but only substituted, and sharing and | substituting have nothing in common in reality. Within yourselves you |

substitution (11) | ||
| Tx:8.84 | Healing is release from the fear of waking and the | substitution of the will to wake. The will to wake is the will to |
| Tx:18.1 | and the other is replaced by him. The relationship in which the | substitution occurred is thus fragmented and its purpose split |
| Tx:18.1 | and its purpose split accordingly. To fragment is to exclude, and | substitution is the strongest defense the ego has for separation. |
| Tx:18.2 | they are one. Being united, they are one because they are the same. | Substitution is clearly a process in which they are perceived as |
| Tx:18.3 | The one emotion in which | substitution is impossible is love. Fear involves substitution by |
| Tx:18.3 | emotion in which substitution is impossible is love. Fear involves | substitution by definition, for it is love's replacement. Fear is |
| Tx:18.4 | You who believe that God is fear made but one | substitution. It has taken many forms because it was the substitution |
| Tx:18.4 | but one substitution. It has taken many forms because it was the | substitution of illusion for truth, of fragmentation for wholeness. |
| Tx:18.9 | love each other with a perfect love. Here is holy ground in which no | substitution can enter and where only the truth about each other can |
| Tx:18.16 | what you would have them be, and what they do you order. No limit on | substitution is laid upon you. For a time, it seems as if the world |
| M:11.3 | yours. Gently His Judgment substitutes for yours. And through this | substitution is the ununderstandable made understandable. How is |

| Tx:18.5 | bits of disunited perceptions, and to force you to further | substitutions. |

| Tx:2.51 | separation. The Atonement is the guarantee that they will ultimately | succeed. |
| Tx:4.11 | believe that they will lose their child or pupil or patient if they | succeed. It is impossible to convince the ego of this because it goes |
| Tx:4.39 | need hardly be said that an attempt to relate the unrelated cannot | succeed. |
| Tx:5.64 | you will automatically attempt to remedy the situation. And you will | succeed. The ego regards this as doom, but you must learn to regard |
| Tx:10.55 | this it does constantly. Analyzing to attack meaning, the ego does | succeed in overlooking it and is left with a series of fragmented |
| Tx:11.22 | love have not succeeded, but you who choose to banish fear will | succeed. The Lord is with you, but you know it not. Yet your Redeemer |
| Tx:11.49 | terms, this is the same as saying, “Try to learn but do not | succeed.” The result of this curriculum goal is obvious. Every |
| Tx:11.50 | speaks against your will, and so you fight against learning and | succeed, for that is your will. But you do not realize even yet that |
| Tx:15.83 | not understand. And because of the Source of the attempt, it will | succeed. The Holy Spirit asks you to respond as God does, for He |
| Tx:15.100 | You will not | succeed in being partial hostage to the ego, for it keeps no bargains |
| Tx:18.27 | to snatch away the gift of faith you offered to each other. You will | succeed only in frightening yourselves. The gift is given forever, |
| Tx:18.66 | from the body necessary. All such attempts will ultimately | succeed because of their purpose. Yet the means are tedious and very |
| Tx:19.18 | the idea of error lacks. To sin would be to violate reality and to | succeed. Sin is the proclamation that attack is real and guilt is |
| Tx:22.48 | mouse that would attack the universe. How likely is it that it will | succeed? Can it be difficult to disregard its feeble squeaks that |
| Tx:23.7 | is its fixed belief it has an enemy that it must overcome and will | succeed. |
| Tx:23.26 | God. From where all this begins, there is no sight of help that can | succeed. Only destruction can be the outcome. And God Himself seems |
| Tx:25.14 | pursuit of what has always failed on grounds that it will suddenly | succeed and bring what it has never brought before? |
| Tx:29.50 | Yet where are dreams but in a mind asleep? And can a dream | succeed in making real the pictures it projects outside itself? Save |
| Tx:31.7 | in it. There is no plan for safety you can make that ever will | succeed. There is no joy that you can seek for here and hope to find. |
| W1:23.1 | The idea for today contains the only way out of fear that will ever | succeed. Nothing else will work; everything else is meaningless. But |
| W1:45.5 | have us do. There is every reason to feel confident that you will | succeed today. It is the Will of God. |
| W1:67.6 | thoughts related to the truth about yourself. Yet perhaps you will | succeed in going past that and through the interval of |
| W1:68.5 | we will try to find out how you would feel without them. If you | succeed even by ever so little, there will never be a problem in |
| W1:69.8 | the thought clearly in mind that what you undertake with God must | succeed. Then let the power of God work in you and through you, that |
| W1:71.6 | His direction, you seek for salvation where it is. But if you are to | succeed, as God promises you will, you must be willing to seek there |
| W1:71.7 | plan that is certain in its outcome. His is the only plan that must | succeed. |
| W1:71.9 | yourself. They have led to depression and anger. But God's plan will | succeed. It will lead to release and joy. |
| W1:73.7 | will in truth. And so salvation is your will as well. You want to | succeed in what we are trying to do today. We undertake it with your |
| W1:73.8 | We will | succeed today if you remember that you will salvation for yourself. |
| W1:73.11 | You will | succeed today, the time appointed for the release of the Son of God |
| W1:79.8 | which we do not insist on defining the problem. Perhaps we will not | succeed in letting all our preconceived notions go, but that is not |
| W1:R2.3 | no meaning and no power. Replace them with your determination to | succeed. Do not forget that your will has power over all fantasies |
| W1:85.2 | aside. I want to see, and this will be the means by which I will | succeed. |
| W1:96.15 | If you | succeed, the thoughts that come to you will tell you you are saved |
| W1:100.9 | you find it now. For this you came. Let this one be the day that you | succeed! Look deep within you, undismayed by all the little thoughts |
| W1:105.10 | You must | succeed today if you prepare your mind as we suggest, for you have |
| W1:107.7 | It is impossible that anyone could seek it truly and would not | succeed. |
| W1:131.1 | immortality within the darkness of the dream of death. Who could | succeed where contradiction is the setting of his searching and the |
| W1:136.9 | How do you think that sickness can | succeed in shielding you from truth? Because it proves the body is |
| W1:137.12 | The other choice is but to ask what cannot be to be, and this cannot | succeed. Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds, that |
| W1:140.9 | reach the source of healing from which nothing is exempt. We will | succeed to the extent to which we realize that there can never be a |
| W1:154.3 | giving you the strength to understand it, do what it entails, and to | succeed in everything you do that is related to it. God has joined |
| W1:161.11 | nearer Christ's vision. If you are intent on reaching it, you will | succeed today. And once you have succeeded, you will not be willing |
| W1:181.4 | by the depressing and restricting thought that, even if you should | succeed, you will inevitably lose your way again. How could this |
| W1:185.7 | make another bargain in the hope that there may yet be one which can | succeed where all the rest have failed. To mean these words |
| W1:200.3 | this, and you can only win. To ask for what you have already must | succeed. To ask that what is false be true can only fail. Forgive |
| W2:246.2 | way You choose for me to come to You, my Father. For in that will I | succeed because it is Your Will. And I would recognize that what You |
| M:4.12 | teachers rest secure makes doubt impossible. Therefore they can only | succeed. In this, as in all things, they are honest. They can only |
| M:4.12 | succeed. In this, as in all things, they are honest. They can only | succeed because they never do their will alone. They choose for all |
| M:4.12 | and for the Son of God and his Creator. How could they not | succeed? They choose in perfect honesty, sure of their choice |
| M:16.8 | can but try, and his success depends on his conviction that he will | succeed. He must be sure success is not of him but will be given him |
| M:17.5 | believes it has a separate will that can oppose the Will of God and | succeed. That this can hardly be a fact is obvious. Yet that it can |

| Tx:4.76 | become apparent that there was no sense in his efforts even if he | succeeded. If gold became more plentiful, its value would decrease, |
| Tx:11.22 | You who have tried to banish love have not | succeeded, but you who choose to banish fear will succeed. The Lord |
| Tx:16.13 | but it is quite apparent that you have not done them alone. You have | succeeded whenever you have reached another mind and joined with it. |
| Tx:19.18 | guilt is justified. It assumes the Son of God is guilty and has thus | succeeded in losing his innocence and making himself what God created |
| Tx:23.2 | it and try to weaken it because of this; and you will think that you | succeeded and attack again. It is as certain you will fear what you |
| Tx:30.80 | the Will of God—the glad acknowledgment that guilt has not | succeeded by your wish to make illusions real. And what is this |
| W1:67.6 | much today to bring that awareness nearer, whether you feel you have | succeeded or not. |
| W1:161.11 | are intent on reaching it, you will succeed today. And once you have | succeeded, you will not be willing to accept the witnesses your |
| M:7.2 | a teacher of God has tried to be a channel for healing, he has | succeeded. Should he be tempted to doubt this, he should not repeat |
succeeding (1) | ||

| Tx:15.5 | Again the ego tries and all too frequently | succeeds in doing both by using dissociation for holding its |

| Tx:29.28 | dream. If it should fail, you think the dream is sad. But whether it | succeeds or fails is not its core but just the flimsy covering. |

| Tx:8.39 | the ego. By willing that, you have gone beyond it toward truth. Our | success in transcending the ego is guaranteed by God, and I can share |
| Tx:8.101 | in attempting the impossible, believing that to achieve it is | success? The belief that you must have the impossible in order to be |
| Tx:15.59 | diminished. On the contrary, you are far more inclined to regard his | success as witness to the possibility of yours. That is because you |
| Tx:18.41 | as failures, and some of your deepest retreats you have evaluated as | success. |
| Tx:18.66 | a lifetime in preparation and have indeed achieved their instants of | success. This course does not attempt to teach more than they learned |
| Tx:24.60 | little time and with the power of God maintaining it and promising | success. Yet of the two, it is this one you find more difficult. The |
| Tx:25.13 | gives no support to base your future hopes and no suggestions of | success at all. To place your hopes where no hope lies must make you |
| Tx:26.60 | can leave their source is to invite illusions to be true, without | success. For never will success be possible in trying to deceive the |

| Tx:30.83 | plans for what the day should be? And thus you judge disaster and | success, advance, retreat, and gain and loss. These judgments all are |

| Tx:4.91 | is a collaborative venture with God. It cannot be undertaken | successfully by those who disengage themselves from the Sonship |
| Tx:10.49 | because you have denied yourself. By believing that you have | successfully attacked truth, you are believing that attack has power. |
| Tx:16.23 | you do not regard yourself as one? For it is impossible to teach | successfully wholly without conviction, and it is equally impossible |
| W1:47.6 | otherwise you would believe that you could deal with the situation | successfully. It is not by trusting yourself that you will gain |

| Tx:1.2 | 2. Miracles as | such do not matter. The only thing that matters is their Source, |
| Tx:1.69 | genuinely authoritative control. As a result it imprisons, because | such are the dictates of tyrants. To change your mind means to place |
| Tx:1.92 | bottom up. This is because he now operates in space, where concepts | such as “up” and “down” are meaningful. Ultimately, space is as |
| Tx:1.94 | in his own denial of truth. The miracle, however, makes no | such distinctions. It corrects errors because they are errors. Thus, |
| Tx:2.90 | literally move mountains. It appears at first glance that to believe | such power about yourself is merely arrogant, but that is not the |
| Tx:3.14 | that the Father really thinks this way? It is so essential that all | such thinking be dispelled that we must be very sure that nothing of |
| Tx:3.28 | from the distortions of the separated ones. The way to correct all | such distortions is to withdraw your faith from them and invest it |
| Tx:3.29 | the invalid. I would suggest that you voluntarily give up all | such attempts because they can only be frantic. If you are willing to |
| Tx:3.54 | always open to error because it refers to the perception of meaning. | Such wholly needless complexities are the result of man's attempt to |
| Tx:3.68 | The dispute over authorship has left | such uncertainty in the minds of men that some have even doubted |
| Tx:4.18 | false and unworthy picture of yourself to others, and do not accept | such a picture of them yourselves. The ego has built a shabby and |
| Tx:4.26 | to the unfamiliar but hardly to something that has occurred with | such persistence. I am using your present state [as an example] of |
| Tx:4.33 | which is merely another way of describing how it originated. This is | such a fearful state that it can only turn to other egos and try to |
| Tx:4.80 | Such relatively minor confusions of the ego are not among its more | |
| Tx:4.100 | tell Him how wonderful He is. He has no ego with which to accept | such thanks and no perception with which to judge such offerings. But |
| Tx:4.100 | which to accept such thanks and no perception with which to judge | such offerings. But unless you take your part in the creation, His |
| Tx:5.56 | thoughts which are of Him and which He also keeps for you. And of | such is the Kingdom of Heaven. All the rest remains with you until He |
| Tx:6.23 | of behaviors arising out of clearly opposed thought systems. As | such, it [is] the perfect symbol of conflict between the ego and the |
| Tx:7.21 | The results of | such tests are evaluated relatively assuming maximal motivation, but |
| Tx:7.25 | perceived as belonging to anyone at the expense of another. | Such a perception makes it meaningless by eliminating or overlooking |
| Tx:7.39 | Holy Spirit's decision to use the body only for communication has | such a direct connection with healing that it does need |
| Tx:8.7 | The total senselessness of | such a curriculum must be fully recognized before a real change in |
| Tx:8.9 | Is there any possible reason for choosing a teacher | such as this? Does the total disregard of anything it teaches make |
| Tx:8.73 | cross-examined him. If you did, you would not consider sickness | such a strong witness on behalf of the ego's views. |
| Tx:8.75 | is not an end. The ego, however, establishes it as an end because as | such it will lose its true function. This is the purpose of |
| Tx:8.98 | that they do not want them. Can you ask the Holy Spirit for “gifts” | such as these and actually expect to receive them? [The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:9.41 | you do, even when you respond to the Holy Spirit, because at | such times its confusion increases. The ego is, therefore, |
| Tx:9.73 | complete havoc this makes of your peace of mind, you could not make | such an insane decision. You make it only because you still believe |
| Tx:10.25 | light comes and you have said, “God's Will is mine,” you will see | such beauty that you will know it is not of you. Out of your joy you |
| Tx:10.26 | shines out from you. How can you see the dark companions in a light | such as this? If you see them, it is only because you are denying the |
| Tx:10.62 | together, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, for | such is the nature of God's Son as His Father created him. |
| Tx:11.92 | you. He has always undone everything unworthy of the Son of God, for | such was His mission, given Him by God. And what God gives has always |
| Tx:12.20 | you made of Him an unloving father, demanding of Him what only | such a father could give. And the peace of God's Son was shattered, |
| Tx:12.63 | been wrong about the world because you have misjudged yourself. From | such a twisted reference point what could you see? All vision starts |
| Tx:12.68 | find yourself because you are lacking. Yet can you find yourself in | such a world? Without the Holy Spirit, the answer would be no. Yet |
| Tx:13.35 | opponents in the war are real. Believing this, he must escape, for | such a war would surely end his peace of mind and so destroy him. Yet |
| Tx:14.11 | fail and must result in peace. No one can be untouched by teaching | such as this. You will not see yourself beyond the power of God if |
| Tx:14.36 | which can lead you nowhere else. Where God is, there are you. | Such is the truth. Nothing can change the knowledge given you by God |
| Tx:15.1 | He has not fulfilled His teaching function until you have become | such a consistent learner that you learn only of Him. When this has |
| Tx:15.5 | of its own death, it will pursue you still because guilt is eternal. | Such is the ego's version of immortality. And it is this the ego's |
| Tx:15.67 | You have nothing to lose by looking open-eyed at this, for ugliness | such as this belongs not in your holy mind. The host of God can have |
| Tx:15.68 | before that the ego attempts to maintain and increase guilt, but in | such a way that you do not recognize what it would do to you. For it |
| Tx:15.79 | holy instant has extended far beyond time. For a teaching assignment | such as His, He must use everything in this world for your release. |
| Tx:15.80 | there is by desiring that it be all that there is. God's Son has | such great need of your willingness to strive for this that you |
| Tx:15.89 | it is your will to be in Heaven, where you are complete and quiet in | such sure and loving relationships that any limit is impossible. |
| Tx:15.108 | What can be more joyous than to perceive we are deprived of nothing? | Such is the message of the time of Christ, which I give you that you |
| Tx:16.36 | relationship is an attempt [to bring love into separation. And, as | such, it is nothing more than an attempt] to bring love into fear and |
| Tx:16.40 | Would you not go through fear to love? For | such the journey seems to be. Love calls, but hate would have you |
| Tx:16.62 | be taken in. For God is left without and nothing taken in. If one | such union were made in perfect faith, the universe would enter into |
| Tx:16.70 | you have for choosing a special partner without the past? Every | such choice is made because of something “evil” in the past to which |
| Tx:17.7 | so lovely. Nothing you see here, sleeping or waking, comes near to | such loveliness. And nothing will you value like unto this nor hold |
| Tx:17.16 | you and seems to you to go by the name of love. And finally why all | such relationships become the attempt at union through the body, for |
| Tx:17.18 | doubt must enter in because its purpose is impossible. The only | such relationships which retain the fantasies that center on them are |
| Tx:17.26 | be lost to you in dreams of vengeance. Relationships in which | such dreams are cherished have excluded me. Let me enter in the Name |
| Tx:17.29 | do not recognize simply because you have raised their substitutes to | such predominance that when truth calls to you, as it does |
| Tx:17.48 | For now you find yourselves in an insane relationship, recognized as | such in the light of its goal. |
| Tx:17.76 | Would you not want to make a holy instant of every situation? For | such is the gift of faith, freely given wherever faithlessness is |
| Tx:17.78 | Such was the crucifixion of the Son of God. His faithlessness did | |
| Tx:18.6 | by which this world was made. Call it not sin but madness, for | such it was, and so it still remains. Invest it not with guilt, for |
| Tx:18.31 | on you. Heaven is joined with you in your advance to Heaven. When | such great light has joined with you to give the little spark of your |
| Tx:18.43 | with you. Can you plan for this? Or could you prepare yourselves for | such a function? Yet it is possible because God wills it. Nor will He |
| Tx:18.43 | to Him. You have accepted one; the other will be provided. A purpose | such as this without the means is inconceivable. He will provide the |
| Tx:18.66 | of meditation aimed at detachment from the body necessary. All | such attempts will ultimately succeed because of their purpose. Yet |
| Tx:18.73 | bids you fight against the universe. This fragment of your mind is | such a tiny part of it that, could you but appreciate the whole, you |
| Tx:18.75 | Such is the strange position in which those in a world inhabited by | |
| Tx:19.19 | any way nor make him really guilty. That is what sin would do, for | such is its purpose. Yet for all the wild insanity inherent in the |
| Tx:19.22 | It can indeed be said the ego made its world on sin. Only in | such a world could everything be upside-down. This is the strange |
| Tx:19.43 | Would you thrust salvation away from the giver of salvation? For | such have you become. Peace could no more depart from you than from |
| Tx:19.45 | in which illusions end. Every miracle is but the end of an illusion. | Such was the journey; such its ending. And in the goal of truth which |
| Tx:19.45 | Every miracle is but the end of an illusion. Such was the journey; | such its ending. And in the goal of truth which you accepted must all |
| Tx:19.52 | to return with gorges filled with things decayed and rotted. To them | such things are beautiful because they seem to allay their savage |
| Tx:19.61 | body, calling the mind to join in holy communion and be at peace. | Such is the message that I gave them for you. |
| Tx:19.80 | to life and innocence and to the Will of God Himself. Where can | such opposition lie but in the sick minds of the insane, dedicated to |
| Tx:19.88 | the truth or falsity of the idea which they reflect. Confronted with | such seeming uncertainty of meaning, judge it not. Remember the holy |
| Tx:20.20 | Yet judgment lays a sentence on it, justifies it, and makes it real. | Such is the world you see—a judgment on yourself and made by you. |
| Tx:20.26 | Such is my will for both of you and for each of you for one another | |
| Tx:20.65 | him will seem real there. You closed your eyes to shut him out. | Such was your purpose, and while this purpose seems to have any |
| Tx:20.71 | body is the sign of weakness, vulnerability, and loss of power. Can | such a savior help you? Would you turn in your distress and need for |
| Tx:21.31 | you that faith can move mountains? This is indeed a little feat for | such a power. For faith can keep the Son of God in chains as long as |
| Tx:21.53 | since the need for Him arose and was fulfilled in the same instant. | Such would your reason tell you if you listened. Yet such is clearly |
| Tx:21.53 | same instant. Such would your reason tell you if you listened. Yet | such is clearly not the ego's “reasoning.” Its alien nature to the |
| Tx:21.69 | by his own desire. And it is by his own desire that he is freed. | Such is his strength and not his weakness. He is at his own mercy. |
| Tx:22.6 | which are not yours must make no sense to you. To whom would vision | such as this send back its messages? Surely not you, whose sight is |
| Tx:22.13 | shelter where his Self could be reborn in safety and in peace. | Such did his reason tell him; such he believed because it was the |
| Tx:22.13 | be reborn in safety and in peace. Such did his reason tell him; | such he believed because it was the truth. |
| Tx:22.19 | the truth makes all truth meaningless and all illusions real. | Such is the power of belief. It cannot compromise. And faith in |
| Tx:22.41 | of you look to the other! How happy you will be to be together after | such a long and lonely journey where you walked alone. The gates of |
| Tx:22.44 | For by receiving it, he learned it was not given him alone. | Such is the function of a holy relationship—to receive together and |
| Tx:23.32 | then must its opposite, which was the truth before, be madness now. | Such a reversal, completely turned around, with madness sanity, |
| Tx:23.36 | For how else could you perceive the form they take with content | such as this? Can any form of this be tenable? Yet you believe them |
| Tx:24.29 | Without foundation nothing is secure. Would God have left His Son in | such a state, where safety has no meaning? No, His Son is safe, |
| Tx:24.33 | The slaves of specialness will yet be free. | Such is the Will of God and of His Son. Would God condemn Himself to |
| Tx:24.34 | it must kill, and you are drawn to it to kill it first. And | such is guilt's attraction. Here is death enthroned as savior; |
| Tx:24.53 | the laws that seem to rule this world. See in his freedom yours, for | such it is. Let not his specialness obscure the truth in him, for not |
| Tx:24.62 | have made to be your strength? What is this child of earth on whom | such love is lavished? What is this parody of God's creation that |
| Tx:24.65 | to decay and death. And if you see this purpose in your brother's, | such is your condemnation of your own. Weave, rather then, a frame of |
| Tx:24.71 | even like, but still a means to offer to the “father” what he wants. | Such is the travesty on God's creation. For as His Son's creation |
| Tx:25.3 | Him not, it carries Him in gentleness and love to heal their minds. | Such is the mission that your brother has for you. And such it must |
| Tx:25.3 | their minds. Such is the mission that your brother has for you. And | such it must be that your mission is for him. |
| Tx:25.24 | God's laws do not obtain directly to a world perception rules, for | such a world could not have been created by the Mind to which |
| Tx:25.29 | offer to your peace and many chances to extend your own forgiveness. | Such its purpose is to those who want to see peace and forgiveness |
| Tx:25.32 | for what will bring him joy as he defines it. It is not the aim as | such that varies. Yet it is the way in which the aim is seen that |
| Tx:25.39 | in innocence and peace. And yet beneath the ego's senseless shrieks, | such is the call that God has given him that you might hear in him |
| Tx:25.46 | Such is the Holy Spirit's kind perception of specialness—His use of | |
| Tx:25.59 | which would have made a hell of Heaven and a heaven of hell, had | such insanity been possible. |
| Tx:25.64 | find impossible. Have little faith that wisdom could be found in | such a state of mind. But be you thankful that only little faith is |
| Tx:26.4 | bodies, however much he witnesses to truth? He is invisible in | such a world. Nor can his song of union and of love be heard at all. |
| Tx:26.14 | the others to yourself, remember this: justice is total. There is no | such thing as partial justice. If the Son of God is guilty, then is |
| Tx:26.24 | is possible in the relinquishment of an illusion recognized as | such. Where all reality has been withdrawn from what was never true, |
| Tx:26.34 | to creation—did this world appear to rise. So very long ago, for | such a tiny interval of time that not one note in Heaven's song was |
| Tx:26.38 | but sets you on a mission whose accomplishment can only be unreal. | Such is the justice your ever-loving Father has ensured must come to |
| Tx:26.42 | cross the gap between past and present, which is not a gap at all. | Such is each life—a seeming interval from birth to death and on to |
| Tx:26.47 | This is a course in miracles. And as | such, the laws of healing must be understood before the purpose of |
| Tx:26.52 | from Him, and brought His love at last to vengeance's heels. For | such an insane picture, an insane defense can be expected but can not |
| Tx:26.60 | and this must still be true because ideas leave not their source. | Such is creation's law—that each idea the mind conceives but adds |
| Tx:27.21 | an instant, even less, to reason with an argument for sickness | such as this? And need your healing be delayed because you pause to |
| Tx:27.29 | not and make it unintelligible. Who can understand a double concept, | such as “weakened-power” or as “hateful-love?” |
| Tx:27.37 | to another state of mind in which the answer is already there. | Such is the holy instant. It is here that all your problems should be |
| Tx:29.15 | Such is the promise of the living God—His Son have life and every | |
| Tx:29.37 | Such is the core of fear in every dream that has been kept apart from | |
| Tx:29.42 | happiness! And what a joyous thing it is to dwell a little while in | such a happy place! Nor can it be forgot in such a world, it is a |
| Tx:29.42 | dwell a little while in such a happy place! Nor can it be forgot in | such a world, it is a little while till timelessness comes quietly to |
| Tx:29.52 | What is an idol? Do you think you know? For idols are unrecognized as | such and never seen for what they really are. That is the only power |
| Tx:30.56 | in illusions it but asks forgiveness be the substitute for fear. | Such is the only rule for happy dreams. The gap is emptied of the |
| Tx:31.1 | who wants it to be true? Only unwillingness to learn it could make | such an easy lesson difficult. How hard is it to see that what is |
| Tx:31.1 | do if you become confused. Why then do you persist in learning not | such simple things? |
| Tx:31.2 | easier to learn and understand. What you have taught yourselves is | such a giant learning feat it is indeed incredible. But you |
| Tx:31.4 | Who could maintain that lessons | such as these are easy? Yet you have learned more than this. You have |
| Tx:31.13 | against the truth, but truth does not respond. Who could be hurt in | such a war unless he hurts himself? He has no enemy in truth. And can |
| Tx:31.42 | foolish and insane it is to think that there could be a road with | such an aim! Where could it go? And how could you be made to travel |
| Tx:31.51 | circumstance? He must have made the world as well as you to have | such prescience in the things to come. |
| W1:I.1 | A theoretical foundation | such as the text is necessary as a background to make these exercises |
| W1:3.1 | you see may have emotionally-charged meaning for you. Try to lay | such feelings aside, and merely use these things exactly as you would |
| W1:4.1 | if you train yourself to look at your thoughts, that they represent | such a mixture that, in a sense, none of them can be called “good” or |
| W1:10.3 | this is to recognize nothingness when you think you see it. As | such, it is the prerequisite for vision. |
| W1:12.5 | you might think of a “good world,” or a “satisfying world.” If | such terms occur to you, use them along with the rest. You may not |

| W1:13.8 | resistance may take, remind yourself that you are really afraid of | such a thought because of the “vengeance” of the “enemy.” You are not |

| W1:20.5 | see them differently, and you will. What you desire, you will see. | Such is the real law of cause and effect as it operates in the world. |
| W1:23.3 | ask if this can be called seeing. Is not fantasy a better word for | such a process and hallucination a more appropriate term for the |
| W1:30.4 | Real vision is not limited to concepts | such as “near” and “far.” To help you begin to get used to this idea, |
| W1:34.7 | peace of mind take the form of more generalized adverse emotions, | such as depression, anxiety, or worry, use the idea in its original |
| W1:38.6 | of your own. You might like, for example, to include thoughts | such as: |
| W1:42.2 | not random. You cannot but be in the right place at the right time. | Such is the strength of God. Such are His gifts. |
| W1:42.2 | in the right place at the right time. Such is the strength of God. | Such are His gifts. |
| W1:42.3 | time when you feel ready than it is to be concerned with the time as | such. |
| W1:42.7 | also reach a point where no thoughts at all seem to come to mind. If | such interferences occur, open your eyes and repeat the thought once |
| W1:43.8 | occur to you add to the idea in your own personal way. Thoughts | such as: |
| W1:45.11 | dedicated in Heaven itself to God the Father and God the Son. For | such is the place you are trying to reach. You will probably be |
| W1:46.8 | devote the remainder of the practice period to adding related ideas | such as: |
| W1:47.1 | to be aware of all the facets of any problem and to resolve it in | such a way that only good can come of it? What is there in you that |
| W1:50.4 | foolish thoughts enter to disturb the holy mind of the Son of God. | Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. Such is the resting place where your |
| W1:50.4 | the holy mind of the Son of God. Such is the Kingdom of Heaven. | Such is the resting place where your Father has placed you forever. |
| W1:53.3 | chaotic thinking, and chaos has no laws. I cannot live in peace in | such a world. I am grateful that this world is not real and that I |
| W1:53.4 | in madness is dependable. It holds out no safety and no hope. But | such a world is not real. I have given it the illusion of reality, |
| W1:55.2 | be what God created for His beloved Son. The very fact that I see | such things is proof that I do not understand God. Therefore I also |
| W1:63.2 | You are indeed the light of the world with | such a function. The Son of God looks to you for his redemption. It |
| W1:63.5 | you should devote to considering this. Do not, however, wait for | such an opportunity. No chance should be lost for reinforcing today's |
| W1:64.6 | very simple. Each one will lead to happiness or unhappiness. Can | such a simple decision really be difficult to make? Let not the form |
| W1:67.2 | you and then spend a few minutes adding some relevant thoughts, | such as: |
| W1:67.5 | After you have gone over several | such related thoughts, try to let all thoughts drop away for a brief |
| W1:71.5 | Such is the ego's plan for your salvation. Surely you can see how it | |
| W1:73.3 | back and forth and grievances increase with each exchange. Can | such a world have been created by the will the Son of God shares with |
| W1:73.7 | Suffering is not happiness, and it is happiness you really want. | Such is your will in truth. And so salvation is your will as well. |
| W1:74.5 | Then spend several minutes in adding some related thoughts, | such as: |
| W1:78.6 | Holy Spirit has assigned to him. Let him be savior unto you today. | Such is his role in God your Father's plan. |
| W1:79.5 | the world appears to hold. They seem to be on so many levels, in | such varying forms, and with such varied content that they confront |
| W1:79.5 | They seem to be on so many levels, in such varying forms, and with | such varied content that they confront you with an impossible |
| W1:R2.3 | in the face of distracting thoughts. Realize that, whatever form | such thoughts may take, they have no meaning and no power. Replace |
| W1:92.9 | where they meet, your Self stands ready to embrace you as Its own. | Such is the meeting place we try today to find and rest in, for the |
| W1:93.3 | what you think, but from a very different reference point from which | such idle thoughts are meaningless. These thoughts are not according |
| W1:95.2 | Such is your version of yourself—a self divided into many warring | |
| W1:96.1 | contradictory aspects of this self-perception. You have sought many | such solutions, and none of them has worked. The opposites you see in |
| W1:101.4 | Who would seek out | such savage punishment? Who would not flee salvation and attempt in |
| W1:105.2 | This implies a limit and an insufficiency. No gift is given thus. | Such “gifts” are but a bid for a more valuable return—a loan with |
| W1:R3.13 | them not. This second chance with each of these ideas will bring | such large advances that we come from these reviews with learning |
| W1:126.7 | was for you? Could He be satisfied with empty gestures and evaluate | such petty gifts as worthy of His Son? Salvation is a better gift |
| W1:127.2 | these things of love is not to understand it. If it could make | such distinctions it would have to judge between the righteous and |
| W1:129.6 | Such is the choice. What loss can be for you in choosing not to value | |
| W1:130.3 | you want that this is shown to you? What would you wish to keep in | such a dream? |
| W1:131.2 | which you strive for them are meaningless as they are. Who can use | such senseless means and hope through them to gain in anything? Where |
| W1:131.14 | think is real. Review the thoughts as well which are compatible with | such a world and which you think are true. Then let them go, and sink |
| W1:134.1 | unjustified and undeserved, and a complete denial of the truth. In | such a view, forgiveness must be seen as mere eccentric folly, and |
| W1:134.5 | Pardon is no escape in | such a view. It merely is a further sign that sin is unforgivable, at |
| W1:135.5 | to protect itself, and needing your defense. What but the body has | such frailty that constant care and watchful, deep concern are |
| W1:135.7 | Is not this picture fearful? Can you be at peace with | such a concept of your home? Yet what endowed the body with the right |
| W1:135.8 | beyond its scope, and to exalted aims which it cannot accomplish. | Such attempts, ridiculous yet deeply cherished, are the sources for |
| W1:136.11 | Such is your planning for your own defense. And you believe that | |
| W1:136.11 | for your own defense. And you believe that Heaven quails before | such mad attacks as these, with God made blind by your illusions, |
| W1:136.13 | Such is the simple truth. It does not make appeal to might nor | |
| W1:136.13 | which would alter it. Truth merely wants to give you happiness, for | such its purpose is. Perhaps it sighs a little when you throw away |
| W1:137.14 | Yet must we be prepared for | such a gift. And so we will begin the day with this and give ten |
| W1:138.7 | today considering the choice that time was made to help us make. | Such is its holy purpose, now transformed from the intent you gave |
| W1:139.8 | not allow our holy minds to occupy themselves with senseless musings | such as this. We have a mission here. We did not come to reinforce |
| W1:R4.1 | we will begin to concentrate on readiness for what will follow next. | Such is our aim for this review and for the lessons following. Thus |
| W1:R4.1 | Thus we review the recent lessons and their central thoughts in | such a way as will facilitate the readiness which we would now |
| W1:151.5 | remains the hidden doubt that what it shows you as reality with | such conviction it does not believe. It is itself alone that it |

| W1:151.12 | Such is your resurrection, for your life is not a part of anything | |
| W1:151.16 | Such is your Eastertide. And so you lay the gift of snow-white lilies | |
| W1:152.6 | die? You but accuse Him of insanity, to think He made a world where | such things seem to have reality. He is not mad. Yet only madness |
| W1:153.8 | We will not play | such childish games today. For our true purpose is to save the world, |
| W1:154.1 | us today be neither arrogant nor falsely humble. We have gone beyond | such foolishness. We cannot judge ourselves, nor need we do so. These |
| W1:155.8 | Such is salvation's call, and nothing more. It asks that you accept | |
| W1:156.6 | but who would waste an instant in approach to God Himself for | such a senseless whim? |
| W1:160.1 | that it is real but different from yourself. Who could be sane in | such a circumstance? Who but a madman could believe he is what he is |
| W1:161.4 | all brothers. Every mind contains all minds, for every mind is one. | Such is the truth. Yet do these thoughts make clear the meaning of |
| W1:161.7 | There must be a thing to be attacked. An enemy must be perceived in | such a form he can be touched and seen and heard and ultimately |
| W1:163.1 | in which the wish to be as you are not may come to tempt you. All | such thoughts are but reflections of the worshipping of death as |
| W1:163.4 | Would you bow down to idols | such as this? Here is the strength and might of God Himself perceived |
| W1:166.3 | The gifts of God are not acceptable to anyone who holds | such strange beliefs. He must believe that, to accept God's gifts, |
| W1:166.15 | which chooses to accept His gifts and feel the touch of Christ. | Such is your mission now. For God entrusts the giving of His gifts to |
| W1:167.7 | The opposite of life can only be another form of life. As | such, it can be reconciled with what created it because it is not |
| W1:168.6 | to Him, for what He has prepared for us He gives and we receive. | Such is His Will because He loves His Son. To Him we pray today, |
| W1:170.6 | as merely foolish. And your arms indeed would crumble into dust. For | such they are. |
| W1:I2.1 | you are asked to practice now in order to attain the sense of peace | such unified commitment will bestow, if only intermittently. It is |
| W1:181.3 | Therefore in practicing today, we first let all | such little focuses give way to our great need to let our sinlessness |
| W1:181.6 | So, for a little while, without regard to past or future, should | such blocks arise, we will transcend them with instructions to our |
| W1:184.7 | Such is the teaching of the world. It is a phase of learning everyone | |
| W1:185.6 | can understand. Whatever form the lesson takes is planned for him in | such a way that he cannot mistake it if his asking is sincere. And if |
| W1:186.9 | Is this the Son of God? Could He create | such instability and call it Son? He Who is changeless shares His |
| W1:186.14 | still. Salvation of the world depends on you who can forgive. | Such is your function here. |
| W1:187.9 | with the ones you offer him beside them. Who could fear to look upon | such lovely holiness? The great illusion of the fear of God |
| W1:189.2 | Who could feel fear in | such a world as this? It welcomes you, rejoices that you came, and |
| W1:190.1 | He sees in him, and His insane desire for revenge and death. Can | such projections be attested to? Can they be anything but wholly |
| W1:190.4 | Peace to | such foolishness! The time has come to laugh at such insane ideas. |
| W1:190.4 | Peace to such foolishness! The time has come to laugh at | such insane ideas. There is no need to think of them as savage crimes |
| W1:192.1 | in its name, forever one with God and with your Self. Yet what can | such a function mean within a world of envy, hatred, and attack? |
| W1:195.1 | seems to suffer more than they. How pitiful and deprecating are | such thoughts! For who has cause for thanks while others have less |
| W1:196.6 | Such is the form of madness you believe if you accept the fearful | |
| W1:198.2 | Condemn and you are made a prisoner. Forgive and you are freed. | Such is the law that rules perception. It is not a law that knowledge |
| W1:199.2 | and power to do whatever it is asked. Attack thoughts cannot enter | such a mind because it has been given to the Source of Love. And fear |
| W1:200.7 | to his own, which is the same as His. What could he hope to find in | such a world? It cannot have reality because it never was created. Is |
| W1:R6.10 | for the day, and let it take the place of what you thought. Beyond | such special applications of each day's idea, we will add but few |
| W2:WF.5 | certain of your ultimate success. He has forgiven you already, for | such is His function given Him by God. Now must you share His |
| W2:WS.2 | the instant that his mind had thought of war. There was no need for | such a thought before, for peace was given without opposite and |
| W2:WIW.2 | from Him. Here was perception born, for knowledge could not cause | such insane thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely. Now |
| W2:254.2 | Today we let no ego thoughts direct our words or actions. When | such thoughts occur, we quietly step back and look at them, and then |
| W2:263.1 | what You created as if it could be made sinful? I would not perceive | such dark and fearful images. A madman's dream is hardly fit to be my |
| W2:273.1 | feasible, we are content and even more than satisfied to learn how | such a day can be achieved. If we give way to a disturbance, let us |
| W2:282.2 | Father, Your Name is Love, and so is mine. | Such is the truth. And can the truth be changed by merely giving it |
| W2:284.1 | any cause at all. And suffering of any kind is nothing but a dream. | Such is the truth—at first to be but said and then repeated many |
| W2:WIRW.3 | What need has | such a mind for thoughts of death, attack, and murder? What can it |
| W2:308.1 | I have conceived of time in | such a way that I defeat my aim. If I elect to reach past time to |
| W2:323.1 | awareness, healing him of pain and giving him Your own eternal joy. | Such is the “sacrifice” You ask of me, and one I gladly make, the |
| W2:334.1 | out of thoughts that rest on false perception. Let me not accept | such meager gifts again today. God's Voice is offering the peace of |
| W2:359.1 | Sons of God. What You created sinless so abides forever and forever. | Such are we. And we rejoice to learn that we have made mistakes which |
| M:1.4 | of God are appointed to bring about. For time is in their hands. | Such was their choice, and it is given them. |
| M:4.7 | on behalf of truth. He has not realized as yet how wholly impossible | such a demand would be. He can learn this only as he actually does |
| M:4.11 | no act belies your word; and no word lacks agreement with another. | Such are the truly honest. At no level are they in conflict with |
| M:4.24 | in newness and in joy so glorious they could never have conceived of | such a change. Nothing is now as it was formerly. Nothing but |
| M:5.4 | attempts to endow the body with non-mental motivators. Actually, | such terms merely state or describe the problem. They do not answer |
| M:6.3 | with it to be sure it is used as the giver deems appropriate? | Such is not giving but imprisoning. |
| M:7.4 | of continuing symptoms is a mistake in the form of lack of trust. As | such, it is an attack. Usually it seems to be just the opposite. It |
| M:7.5 | implies that trust has been placed in an illusory self, for only | such a self can be doubted. This illusion can take many forms. |
| M:10.4 | right, without ever realizing you were wrong? Why would you choose | such an arbitrary basis for decision-making? Wisdom is not judgment; |
| M:13.2 | except to a body? Yet a body cannot evaluate. By seeking after | such things, the mind associates itself with the body, obscuring its |
| M:16.2 | those who have not reached his certainty? They are not yet ready for | such lack of structuring on their own part. What must they do to |
| M:16.2 | each one must use them as best he can in his own way. Routines as | such are dangerous because they easily become gods in their own |
| M:17.8 | stands out like an intense white light against a black horizon, for | such it is. If anger comes from an interpretation and not a fact, it |
| M:19.3 | all thought of wholeness must be lost. Forgiveness has no place in | such a scheme, for not one “sin” but seems forever true. |
| M:22.3 | Spirit unless the body is killed? And who would want salvation at | such a price? |
| M:23.4 | The name of Jesus Christ as | such is but a symbol. But it stands for love that is not of this |
| M:24.1 | way? Like many other beliefs, it can be bitterly misused. At least, | such misuse offers preoccupation and perhaps pride in the past. At |
| M:24.4 | reversal of thought. When this is finally accomplished, issues | such as the validity of reincarnation become meaningless. Until then |
| M:24.4 | The teacher of God is therefore wise to step away from all | such questions, for he has much to teach and learn apart from them. |
| M:26.2 | when and where it is helpful for them to do so. To those to whom | such appearances would be frightening, they give their ideas. No one |
| M:27.2 | perhaps today. Or if he waits, yet is the ending certain. Who loves | such a god knows not of love, because he has denied that life is |
| M:28.3 | last. How quickly will it come as it is asked to enter and envelop | such a world! |
| M:29.4 | it knows all things because you have given that belief to it. | Such is your teaching and the teaching of the world which was made to |

| Tx:3.51 | was introduced only after the separation. No one has been | sure of anything since. You will also remember, however, that I made |
| Tx:3.75 | symbolism here has been given many interpretations, but you may be | sure that any interpretation which sees either God or His creations |
| Tx:5.22 | state. It means that knowledge has been lost, because knowledge is | sure. God is not in you in a literal sense; you are part of Him. When |
| Tx:5.63 | This engenders joy, not guilt, because it is natural. Guilt is a | sure sign that your thinking is unnatural. Perverted thinking will |
| Tx:9.74 | destroy himself. When you think you are attacking yourself, it is a | sure sign that you hate what you think you are. And this, and only |
| Tx:10.17 | reality could you have than those who have been healed by it? But be | sure to count yourself among them, for in your willingness to join |
| Tx:13.43 | Will. There is no chance that Heaven will not be yours, for God is | sure, and what He wills is as sure as He is. You will learn |
| Tx:13.43 | Heaven will not be yours, for God is sure, and what He wills is as | sure as He is. You will learn salvation, because you will learn how |
| Tx:13.43 | from what the Holy Spirit wills to teach you. Salvation is as | sure as God. His certainty suffices. Learn that even the darkest |
| Tx:14.63 | You have one test, as | sure as God, by which to recognize if what you learned is true. If |
| Tx:14.63 | or even think of you share in your perfect peace, then you can be | sure that you have learned God's lesson and not yours. Unless all |
| Tx:14.68 | for yourself your guiltlessness? That is impossible. But be | sure that you are willing to acknowledge that it is impossible. It is |
| Tx:15.19 | completely to the Holy Spirit. For when you have, you will be | sure you have. You will be sure because the witness to Him will speak |
| Tx:15.19 | Spirit. For when you have, you will be sure you have. You will be | sure because the witness to Him will speak so clearly of Him that you |
| Tx:15.22 | Be not content with littleness, but be | sure you understand what littleness is and why you could never be |
| Tx:15.49 | will let Him. You can place any relationship under His care and be | sure that it will not result in pain if you offer Him your |
| Tx:15.74 | Whenever you are angry, you can be | sure that you have formed a special relationship which the ego has |
| Tx:15.89 | your will to be in Heaven, where you are complete and quiet in such | sure and loving relationships that any limit is impossible. Would you |
| Tx:16.2 | You do not know what empathizing means. Yet of this you may be | sure—if you will merely sit quietly by and let the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:16.5 | for strength and not for weakness. He will not desert you, but be | sure that you desert not him. Humility is strength in this sense only |
| Tx:16.5 | is to recognize and accept the fact that He does know. You are not | sure that He will do His part because you have never yet done yours |
| Tx:16.19 | Reality is safe and | sure and wholly kind to everyone and everything. There is no greater |
| Tx:17.23 | past to Him Who can change your mind about it for you. But first be | sure you fully realize what you have made the past to represent and |
| Tx:17.56 | and the means will surely fall in place because the goal is | sure. And you will share the gladness of the Sonship that it is so. |
| Tx:17.76 | use instead. This power instantly transforms all situations into one | sure and continuous means for establishing His purpose and |
| Tx:18.22 | has been changed from one of dreams to one of truth. You are not | sure of this because you think it may be this that is the dream. You |
| Tx:18.23 | Yet Heaven is | sure. This is no dream. Its coming means that you have chosen truth, |
| Tx:18.42 | His understanding, He will build your part in the Atonement and make | sure that you fulfill it easily. And with Him you will build a ladder |
| Tx:18.82 | Be | sure of this—love has entered your special relationship and entered |
| Tx:18.98 | untrue, lifting the shadows from the world and carrying it safe and | sure within its gentleness to the bright world of new and clean |
| Tx:19.38 | with the Holy Spirit remains unfinished. You can indeed be | sure of nothing you see outside you, but of this you can be sure: the |
| Tx:19.38 | be sure of nothing you see outside you, but of this you can be | sure: the Holy Spirit asks that you offer Him a resting-place where |
| Tx:19.80 | to madness and set against the peace of Heaven? One thing is | sure—God, Who created neither sin nor death, wills not that you be |
| Tx:19.110 | you far beyond the veil and place the Son of God safely within the | sure protection of his Father. Here is the only purpose that gives |
| Tx:20.13 | innocence will light your way, offering you its guiding light and | sure protection, and shining from the holy altar within him where you |
| Tx:20.37 | herald of eternity. No one who has a single purpose, unified and | sure, can be afraid. No one who shares his purpose with him can not |
| Tx:20.72 | and certain sight. The end for everything He looks upon is always | sure. For it will meet His purpose, seen in unadjusted form and |
| Tx:20.74 | the power you gave them, you are released from them. One thing is | sure—hallucinations serve a purpose, and when that purpose is no |
| Tx:21.50 | to what the ego says and see what it directs you see, and it is | sure that you will see yourself as tiny, vulnerable, and afraid. You |
| Tx:21.87 | any kind. It is unshakable as is the love of God for His creation. | Sure in its vision as its Creator is in what He knows, it looks on |
| Tx:22.18 | reason's eyes can be confused with joy. Joy is eternal. You can be | sure indeed that any seeming happiness that does not last is really |
| Tx:22.52 | Spirit waits in gentle patience, as certain of the outcome as He is | sure of His Creator's love. He knows this mad decision was made by |
| Tx:23.2 | again. It is as certain you will fear what you attack as it is | sure that you will love what you perceive as sinless. He walks in |
| Tx:23.16 | those who would remember Him. Over His home the Holy Spirit watches, | sure that its peace can never be disturbed. |
| Tx:23.30 | But what is it you want that needs his death? Can you be | sure your murderous attack is justified unless you know what it is |
| Tx:23.40 | in your awareness? Are you certain which way you go? And are you | sure the goal of Heaven can be reached? If not, you walk alone. Ask, |
| Tx:24.26 | wholly, when he would not receive it for himself? For it is | sure he would receive it wholly the instant that he gave it so. And |
| Tx:24.49 | God is here and with you now. While he is what he is, you can be | sure that God is knowable and will be known to you. For He could |
| Tx:24.61 | believe it easier to see your brother's body than his holiness, be | sure you understand what made this judgment. Here is the voice of |
| Tx:24.71 | evidence beyond itself and no escape within its sight. Its course is | sure when seen through its own eyes. It grows and withers, flourishes |
| Tx:25.13 | change that might result in better outcome? For one thing is | sure—the way you see, and long have seen, gives no support to base |
| Tx:25.24 | He could not enter His Son's insanity with him, but He could be | sure His sanity went there with him so he could not be lost forever |
| Tx:25.50 | sin is a request for death, a wish to make this world's foundation | sure as love, dependable as Heaven, and as strong as God Himself. The |
| Tx:25.51 | for life. Nor can the basis of a world He did not make be firm and | sure as Heaven. How could it be that hell and Heaven are the same? |
| Tx:25.81 | The sight of innocence makes punishment impossible and justice | sure. The Holy Spirit's perception leaves no ground for an attack. |
| Tx:26.46 | not of this world, and only He to whom they have been given can make | sure that you receive them. He will place them on your throne when |
| Tx:27.12 | this—to let the body have no purpose from the past, when you were | sure you knew its purpose was to foster guilt. For this insists your |
| Tx:27.68 | you, uninvited and unasked, must really be. Of one thing you were | sure—of all the many causes you perceived as bringing pain and |
| Tx:28.37 | or anything, depending on whose evil dream you share. You can be | sure of just one thing—that you are evil, for you share in dreams |
| Tx:29.24 | that shines within the dream—that you can help him waken and be | sure his waking eyes will rest on you. And in his glad salvation, you |
| Tx:29.60 | and on you as one with Him? God gave you all there is. And to be | sure you could not lose it, did He also give the same to every living |
| Tx:29.69 | a certainty of help, a calm assurance Heaven goes with you—be | sure you made an idol and believe it will betray you. For beneath |
| Tx:30.46 | the eternal sky which holds it safe, forever lifted up, and anchored | sure. Its perfect purity does not depend on whether it is seen on |
| Tx:30.59 | in his purpose with himself. There is a hope of happiness in him so | sure and constant he can barely stay and wait a little longer with |
| Tx:30.71 | Pardon is always justified. It has a | sure foundation. You do not forgive the unforgivable nor overlook a |
| Tx:30.73 | impossible His pardon could be real. Thus is the fear of God the | sure result of seeing pardon as unmerited. No one who sees himself as |
| Tx:31.6 | for Him. Which lesson will you learn? What outcome is inevitable, | sure as God, and far beyond all doubt and question? Can it be your |
| Tx:31.35 | There is no choice where every end is | sure. Perhaps you would prefer to try them all before you really |
| Tx:31.58 | of the world is loosening its grasp upon your mind. And be you | sure and happy in the confidence that it will go at last and leave |
| Tx:31.95 | brothers as they are Your Sons. My faith in them is Yours. I am as | sure that they will come to me as You are sure of what they are and |
| Tx:31.95 | in them is Yours. I am as sure that they will come to me as You are | sure of what they are and will forever be. They will accept the gift |
| W1:I.4 | of applying that idea to as many specifics as possible. Be | sure that you do not decide that there are some things you see to |
| W1:I.4 | of the idea to everything. This will not require effort. Only be | sure that you make no exceptions in applying the idea. |
| W1:1.5 | you see, for these exercises should not become ritualistic. Only be | sure that nothing you see is specifically excluded. One thing is like |
| W1:2.2 | on it. Make no attempt to include anything particular, but be | sure that nothing is specifically excluded. |
| W1:3.1 | Whatever you see becomes a proper subject for applying the idea. Be | sure that you do not question the suitability of anything for the |
| W1:9.7 | should not be attempted, specific exclusion must be avoided. Be | sure you are honest in making this distinction. You may be tempted to |
| W1:11.1 | the idea in this initial form, for in this idea is your release made | sure. The key to forgiveness lies in it. |
| W1:11.2 | to be spent in using the idea, merely repeat it to yourself, being | sure to do so without haste and with no sense of urgency or effort. |
| W1:12.6 | Be | sure that you do not alter the time intervals between applying |
| W1:23.9 | In the practice periods, be | sure to include both your thoughts of attacking and of being |
| W1:27.1 | feel hesitant about using the idea on the ground that you are not | sure you really mean it. This does not matter. The purpose of today's |
| W1:27.7 | perfectly sincere while you were repeating today's idea, you can be | sure that you have saved yourself many years of effort. |
| W1:34.4 | unhurried manner, without applying it to anything in particular. Be | sure, however, not to make any specific exclusions. |
| W1:43.7 | this part of the exercise period should be relatively short, be | sure that you select the subjects for this phase indiscriminately, |
| W1:46.13 | for today in the original or in a related form as you prefer. Be | sure, however, to make more specific applications if they are needed. |
| W1:48.3 | The presence of fear is a | sure sign that you are trusting in your own strength. The awareness |
| W1:49.5 | with your eyes open when necessary, but closed when possible. And be | sure that you sit quietly and repeat the idea for today slowly |
| W1:50.3 | you, you can resolve all seeming difficulties without effort and in | sure confidence. Tell yourself this often today. It is a declaration |
| W1:R1.2 | others, concentrate on that one. At the end of the day, however, be | sure to review all of them once more. |
| W1:53.6 | to cast their beneficent light on what I see. Yet God's way is | sure. The images I have made cannot prevail against Him because it is |
| W1:61.8 | Be | sure both to begin and end the day with a practice period. Thus you |
| W1:68.4 | It is as | sure that those who hold grievances will redefine God in their own |
| W1:68.4 | created them like Himself and defined them as part of Him. It is as | sure that those who hold grievances will suffer guilt as it is |
| W1:68.4 | as it is certain that those who forgive will find peace. It is as | sure that those who hold grievances will forget who they are as it is |
| W1:69.8 | you. You may not recognize His answer yet, but you can indeed be | sure that it is given you, and you will yet receive it. Try, as you |
| W1:69.11 | Also, be | sure to tell yourself: |
| W1:74.7 | During this introductory phase, be | sure to deal quickly with any conflict thoughts that may cross your |
| W1:77.3 | than what belongs to us in truth. Today, however, we will also make | sure that we will not content ourselves with less. |
| W1:80.6 | with deep conviction as frequently as possible. And be particularly | sure to remember to apply the idea for today to any specific problem |
| W1:91.9 | a real experience of something else, something more solid and more | sure, more worthy of your faith, and really there. |
| W1:91.14 | intervals remind yourself that miracles are seen in light. Also, be | sure to meet temptation with today's idea. This form would be helpful |
| W1:92.8 | till the morning comes again. The light of strength is constant, | sure as love, forever glad to give itself away because it cannot give |
| W1:94.9 | yourself frequently today that you are as God created you. And be | sure to respond to anyone who seems to irritate you with these words: |
| W1:95.20 | all the world to be at one with you. To everyone you meet today be | sure to give the promise of today's idea and tell him this: |
| W1:98.7 | of today's idea a total dedication, made in faith as perfect and as | sure as His in you. |
| W1:98.13 | which He would have you take and help you fill, and He will make you | sure you want this choice, which He has made with you and you with |
| W1:99.6 | and sees them as appearances behind which is the changeless and the | sure. This is the thought which saves and which forgives, because it |
| W1:99.9 | You who will yet work miracles, be | sure you practice well the idea for today. Try to perceive the |
| W1:102.7 | that you have now accepted happiness as your one function. And be | sure that you are joining with God's Will in doing this. |
| W1:107.6 | not falter in the face of pain but looks beyond it, steadily and | sure. Here is the gift of healing, for the truth needs no defense, |
| W1:107.9 | is not our approach today. We are as certain of success as we are | sure we live and hope and breathe and think. We do not doubt we walk |
| W1:108.13 | today as quick advances in your learning, made still faster and more | sure each time you say: |
| W1:R3.2 | time. Nor is it necessary that you make excessive efforts to be | sure that you catch up in terms of numbers. Rituals are not our aim |
| W1:122.1 | transcends the world? Do you want care and safety and the warmth of | sure protection always? Do you want a quietness that cannot be |
| W1:122.11 | happiness as you begin these practice periods, for they hold out the | sure rewards of questions answered, and what your acceptance of the |
| W1:124.11 | a sight too holy for the body's eyes to see, and yet you can be | sure someday, perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you will understand |
| W1:126.1 | would be no problem in complete forgiveness, certainty of goal, and | sure direction. You would understand the means by which salvation |
| W1:126.5 | be true, forgiveness has no grounds on which to rest dependably and | sure. It is an eccentricity in which you sometimes choose to give |
| W1:128.7 | it goes to rest when you release it from the world. Your Guide is | sure. Open your mind to Him. Be still and rest. |
| W1:135.22 | confidence, for this is part of what was planned for us. We will be | sure that everything we need is given us for our accomplishment of |
| W1:138.10 | The conscious choice of Heaven is as | sure as is the ending of the fear of hell when it is raised from its |
| W1:138.11 | make the choice for Heaven as we wake and spend five minutes making | sure that we have made the one decision that is sane. We recognize we |
| W1:151.11 | you in any way from His one frame of reference, wholly unified and | sure. And you will see the love beyond the hate, the constancy in |
| W1:152.6 | the world you see is arrogance? God made it not. Of this you can be | sure. What can He know of the ephemeral, the sinful and the guilty, |
| W1:153.9 | defenselessness we stand secure, serenely certain of our safety now, | sure of salvation; sure we will fulfill our chosen purpose as our |
| W1:153.9 | stand secure, serenely certain of our safety now, sure of salvation; | sure we will fulfill our chosen purpose as our ministry extends its |
| W1:154.12 | ways, a hundred times, and yet belief is lacking still. But this is | sure—until belief is given it, you will receive a thousand miracles |
| W1:156.2 | It cannot contradict itself nor be in parts uncertain and in others | sure. You cannot walk the world apart from God because you could not |
| W1:157.2 | possibly attain. It leaves us there an instant and we go beyond it, | sure of our direction and our only goal. |
| W1:157.7 | And you who bring it light will come to see the light more | sure, the vision more distinct. |
| W1:160.7 | as God is of His Son. He cannot be confused about creation. He is | sure of what belongs to Him. No stranger can be interposed between |
| W1:160.8 | ask, “Who is the stranger?” Hear His Voice assure you, quietly and | sure, that you are not a stranger to your Father, nor is your Creator |
| W1:161.16 | Today's idea is your safe escape from anger and from fear. Be | sure you use it instantly, should you be tempted to attack a brother |
| W1:165.3 | in comparison with them? And having found them, would he not make | sure they stay with him and he remains with them? |
| W1:165.5 | Ask with desire. You need not be | sure that you request the only thing you want. But when you have |
| W1:165.5 | the only thing you want. But when you have received, you will be | sure you have the treasure you have always sought. What would you |
| W1:169.10 | relationships, the course it runs directed, and its outcome | sure. |
| W1:R5.2 | little child along a way he does not understand. Yet does he follow, | sure that he is safe because his father leads the way for him. |
| W1:R5.3 | You will raise us up. If we forget the way, we count upon Your | sure remembering. We wander off, but You will not forget to call us |
| W1:I2.1 | if only intermittently. It is experiencing this which makes it | sure that you will give your total willingness to following the way |
| W1:I2.2 | so intensified that words become of little consequence. You will be | sure of what you want and what is valueless. |
| W1:181.1 | holding up your faith in your ability to transcend doubt and lack of | sure conviction in yourself. When you attack a brother, you proclaim |
| W1:181.2 | that comes from faith in sinlessness. This faith receives its only | sure support from what you see in others past their sins. For their |
| W1:182.6 | noises of the world. Yet does He know that in you still abides His | sure protection. You will fail Him not. He will go home, and you |
| W1:185.2 | them. You have but to look upon the world you see around you to be | sure how very few they are. The world would be completely changed |
| W1:185.10 | with what they seek above all things, perhaps unknown to them, but | sure to you. You have been weak at times, uncertain in your purpose |
| W1:185.13 | meaningless to Him. And when it is as meaningless to you, you can be | sure you share one will with Him, and He with you. And you will also |
| W1:186.5 | that salvation needs your part and that the whole depends on you, be | sure that it is so. The arrogant must cling to words, afraid to go |
| W1:187.2 | How is this possible? For it is | sure that if you give a finite thing away, your body's eyes will not |
| W1:187.4 | all things you value by the act of giving them away, and you are | sure that you will never lose them. What you thought you did not have |
| W1:189.4 | joy within. What they have felt in them they look upon and see its | sure reflection everywhere. |
| W1:189.6 | is the gift Its Love bestows on us. We learn the way today. It is as | sure as Love Itself, to Which it carries us. For its simplicity |
| W1:192.8 | is not free, for he is bound together with his prisoner. He must be | sure that he does not escape, and so he spends his time in keeping |
| W1:193.7 | underneath the form. It is this sameness which makes learning | sure because the lesson is so simple that it cannot be rejected in |
| W1:193.11 | should learn? Does pain seem real in the perception? If it does, be | sure the lesson is not learned. And there remains an unforgiveness |
| W1:194.7 | peace and certainty of care the world can never threaten. He is | sure that his perception may be faulty but will never lack |
| W1:194.9 | Now are we saved indeed. For in God's hands we rest untroubled, | sure that only good can come to us. If we forget, we will be gently |
| W1:196.2 | not understand how mercy, limitless and with all things held in its | sure protection, can be found in the idea we practice for today. It |
| W1:197.5 | to God must be His own. Yet you will never realize His gifts are | sure, eternal, changeless, limitless, forever giving out, extending |
| W1:200.9 | be delay and needless wasted time on thorny byways. God alone is | sure, and He will guide our footsteps. He will not desert His Son in |
| W1:R6.7 | have. Then gently let the thought which you denied be given up in | sure and quick exchange for the idea we practice for the day. |
| W2:I.2 | He has promised He will take the final step Himself. And we are | sure His promises are kept. We have come far along the road, and now |
| W2:221.1 | I come to hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and love, | sure You will hear my call and answer me. |
| W2:221.2 | Now do we wait in quiet. God is here because we wait together. I am | sure that He will speak to you, and you will hear. Accept my |
| W2:232.1 | all my thoughts be still of You and of Your Love, and let me sleep | sure of my safety, certain of Your care, and happily aware I am Your |
| W2:235.1 | surrounds His Son and keeps his sinlessness forever perfect to be | sure that I am saved and safe forever in His arms. I am the Son He |
| W2:278.2 | of madness and instead of fear. For truth is safe and only love is | sure. |
| W2:290.2 | to hear me, Father. What I ask have You already given me, and I am | sure that I will see my happiness today. |
| W2:WIRW.2 | a counterpart for each unhappy thought reflected in your world, a | sure correction for the sights of fear and sounds of battle which |
| W2:WIRW.4 | is over and God's Son no longer sleeps. His waking eyes perceive the | sure reflection of his Father's Love, the certain promise that he is |
| W2:297.2 | Father, how certain are Your ways, how | sure their final outcome, and how truly faithful is every step in my |
| W2:298.1 | artificial values. I accept instead what God establishes as mine, | sure that in that alone I will be saved, sure that I go through fear |
| W2:298.1 | God establishes as mine, sure that in that alone I will be saved, | sure that I go through fear to meet my Love. |
| W2:300.1 | serene. And it is this serenity we seek, unclouded, obvious, and | sure today. |
| W2:WISC.1 | Christ's Second Coming, which is | sure as God, is merely the correction of mistakes and the return of |
| W2:309.2 | The step I take today, my Father, is my | sure release from idle dreams of sin. Your altar stands serene and |
| W2:314.2 | leave the future in Your hands, leaving behind our past mistakes and | sure that You will keep Your present promises and guide the future in |
| W2:317.2 | to Your Son, who thought mistakenly that he had wandered from the | sure protection of Your loving arms. |
| W2:321.2 | freedom through the certain way our Father has established. And how | sure is all the world's salvation when we learn our freedom can be |
| W2:324.2 | walk together, for we follow Him. And it is He Who makes the ending | sure and guarantees a safe returning home. |
| W2:327.1 | and still farther on the road that leads to Him. For thus I will be | sure that He has not abandoned me and loves me still, awaiting but my |
| W2:338.2 | Your plan is | sure, my Father—only Yours. All other plans will fail. And I will |
| W2:347.1 | my awareness. Let Him judge today. I do not know my will, but He is | sure it is Your own. And He will speak for me, and call Your miracle |
| W2:355.1 | me? For You will keep Your Word You gave Your Son in exile. I am | sure my treasure waits for me, and I need but reach out my hand to |
| W2:FL.1 | them. Let us turn to Him Who leads the way and makes our footsteps | sure. To Him we leave these lessons, as to Him we give our lives |
| W2:E.3 | direct your mind, and when to come to Him in silence, asking for His | sure direction and His certain Word. His is the Word that God has |
| W2:E.4 | now you walk with Him as certain as is He of where you go; as | sure as He of how you should proceed, as confident as He is of the |
| W2:E.5 | to make. And He will speak for God and for your Self, thus making | sure that hell will claim you not and that each choice you make |
| W2:E.6 | hover close and all about. His Love surrounds you, and of this be | sure: that I will never leave you comfortless. |
| M:1.1 | Once he has done that, his road is established and his direction is | sure. A light has entered the darkness. It may be a single light, but |
| M:4.12 | Creator. How could they not succeed? They choose in perfect honesty, | sure of their choice themselves. |
| M:4.16 | no pain. They cannot suffer. Why would they not be joyous? They are | sure they are beloved and must be safe. Joy goes with gentleness as |
| M:4.16 | as grief attends attack. God's teachers trust in Him. And they are | sure His Teacher goes before them, making sure no harm can come to |
| M:4.16 | trust in Him. And they are sure His Teacher goes before them, making | sure no harm can come to them. They hold His gifts and follow in His |
| M:4.20 | are causing pain to anyone. Patience is natural to those who trust. | Sure of the ultimate interpretation of all things in time, no outcome |
| M:6.3 | lose but only gain. Who gives a gift and then remains with it to be | sure it is used as the giver deems appropriate? Such is not giving |
| M:7.6 | is, you cannot doubt. Doubt is the result of conflicting wishes. Be | sure of what you want, and doubt becomes impossible. |
| M:10.5 | to trust instead of his own. Now he makes no mistakes. His Guide is | sure. And where he came to judge, he comes to bless. Where now he |

| Tx:17.56 | Yet the goal is fixed, firm, and unalterable, and the means will | surely fall in place because the goal is sure. And you will share the |

| Tx:22.15 | and yours with His. And who is drawn to Christ is drawn to God as | surely as both are drawn to every holy relationship, the home |
| Tx:22.17 | as joy. Yet to perceive a difference where none exists will | surely fail to make a difference. |
| Tx:22.45 | How does one overcome illusions? | Surely not by force or anger nor by opposing them in any way. Merely |
| Tx:23.7 | has the power to be victorious. Why else would you identify with it? | Surely you realize the ego is at war with God. Certain it is it has |
| Tx:23.38 | quite possible to value some above the others. Yet each one rests as | surely on the belief the laws of chaos are the laws of order as do |
| Tx:24.2 | that you believe. It is the outcome of belief and follows it as | surely as does suffering follow guilt and freedom sinlessness. There |
| Tx:24.40 | for something and lack faith that it is so. Wishing makes real, as | surely as does will create. The power of a wish upholds illusions as |
| Tx:26.15 | loss. The miracle of justice you call forth will rest on you as | surely as on him. Nor will the Holy Spirit be content until it is |
| Tx:26.28 | more than any other. Each reminds him of His Father's love as | surely as the rest. And each one teaches him that what he fear[s,] he |
| Tx:27.37 | attempt to solve a problem where the answer cannot be. Yet just as | surely it must be resolved if it is brought to where the answer is. |
| Tx:29.69 | self-betrayal must result in fear, for fear is judgment, leading | surely to the frantic search for idols and for death. |
| Tx:30.63 | and think they see an idol that they want. Yet has their path been | surely set away from idols toward reality. For when they joined their |

| Tx:31.7 | Each has its outcome in a different world. And each world follows | surely from its source. The certain outcome of the lesson that God's |
| Tx:31.10 | The fear of God results as | surely from the lesson that His Son is guilty as God's love must be |
| Tx:31.48 | where they cannot be perceived as errors, which the light would | surely show. You can be neither blamed for what you are, nor can you |
| Tx:31.51 | even though you do not yet perceive that this is what you think, you | surely learned by now that you behave as if it were. Does he react |
| W1:22.7 | The answer is | surely obvious. |
| W1:26.1 | It is | surely obvious that if you can be attacked, you are not invulnerable. |
| W1:39.2 | If guilt is hell, what is its opposite? This is not difficult, | surely. The hesitation you may feel in answering is not due to the |
| W1:56.3 | let this image of myself go. As it is replaced by truth, vision will | surely be given me. And with this vision, I will look upon the world |
| W1:66.1 | You have | surely noticed an emphasis throughout our recent lessons on the |
| W1:70.3 | This is not a role which can be partially accepted. And you must | surely begin to see that accepting it is salvation. It may not, |
| W1:70.13 | Since all illusions of salvation have failed you, | surely you do not want to remain in the clouds looking vainly for |
| W1:71.5 | Such is the ego's plan for your salvation. | Surely you can see how it is in strict accord with the ego's basic |
| W1:71.5 | ego's basic doctrine, “Seek but do not find.” For what could more | surely guarantee that you will not find salvation than to channelize |
| W1:95.4 | your mind to wander if it undertakes extended attempts. You have | surely realized this by now. You have seen the extent of your lack of |
| W1:96.2 | each one as futile as the one before and failing as the next one | surely will. |
| W1:102.1 | believe a little that it buys you what you want. Yet this belief is | surely shaken now, at least enough to let you question it and to |
| W1:R3.7 | means for your salvation. Since it has His trust, His means must | surely merit yours as well. |
| W1:125.2 | God to be his Guide, forever in his mind and at his side to lead him | surely to his Father's house by his own will, forever free as God's. |
| W1:129.4 | fail entirely, into a silence where the language is unspoken and yet | surely understood. Communication, unambiguous and plain as day, |
| W1:131.4 | Yet searching is inevitable here. For this you came, and you will | surely do the thing you came for. But the world cannot dictate the |
| W1:139.2 | make the question seem to be sincere. The only thing that can be | surely known by any living thing is what it is. From this one point |
| W1:156.1 | cause for guilt, and being causeless it does not exist. It follows | surely from the basic thought so often mentioned in the text—ideas |
| W1:157.9 | speaks of your remembrance of what you knew that instant and will | surely know again. |
| W1:161.6 | Bodies attack but minds do not. This thought is | surely reminiscent of our text, where it is often emphasized. This is |
| W1:161.7 | killed. When hatred rests upon a thing, it calls for death as | surely as God's Voice proclaims there is no death. Fear is |
| W1:163.2 | alone is real, inevitable, worthy of their trust. For it alone will | surely come. |
| W1:164.9 | may not see the value your acceptance gives the world. But this you | surely want—you can exchange all suffering for joy this very day. |
| W1:R5.1 | may go on again more certain, more sincere, with faith upheld more | surely. Our footsteps have not been unwavering, and doubts have made |
| W1:182.1 | throb, at other times hardly remembered, actively dismissed, but | surely to return to mind again. |
| W1:187.5 | seems to lose is always something he will value less than what will | surely be returned to him. |
| W1:188.6 | you think with Him. They recognize their home. And they point | surely to their Source where God the Father and the Son are one. |
| W1:189.9 | love will blaze its pathway of itself. What has not been denied is | surely there if it be true, and can be surely reached. God knows His |
| W1:189.9 | What has not been denied is surely there if it be true, and can be | surely reached. God knows His Son and knows the way to him. He does |
| W1:196.12 | with you to help you reach that instant and to go beyond it quickly, | surely, and forever. When the fear of God is gone, there are no |
| W2:312.1 | you would see and fail to see what you have chosen to behold. How | surely, therefore, must the real world come to greet the holy sight |
| W2:315.1 | the way to me and giving me his certainty that what he learned is | surely mine as well. |
| W2:318.2 | for myself. For thus does what is thereby reconciled in me become as | surely reconciled to You. |
| W2:327.1 | learn from my experience that this is true, and faith in Him must | surely come to me. This is the faith that will endure and take me |
| M:4.16 | sure they are beloved and must be safe. Joy goes with gentleness as | surely as grief attends attack. God's teachers trust in Him. And they |
| M:8.3 | come from? Certainly they seem to be in the world outside. Yet it is | surely the mind that judges what the eyes behold. It is the mind that |
| M:12.6 | teachers acknowledge as behind the dream, beyond all seeing and yet | surely theirs. |
| M:13.7 | is impossible. A split that cannot happen. Yet a split in which you | surely will believe, because you have set up a situation that is |
| M:16.1 | the Answer. He is set and sees the road on which he walks stretch | surely and smoothly before him. |
| M:17.5 | hardly be a fact is obvious. Yet that it can be believed as fact is | surely so. And herein lies the birthplace of guilt. Who usurps the |
| M:29.2 | for more? No one should attempt to answer these questions alone. | Surely no teacher of God has come this far without realizing that. |
sureness (9) | ||
| Tx:9.27 | worker begins by perceiving light and translates his perception into | sureness by continually extending it and accepting its |
| Tx:21.48 | way to certainty. Be not held back by fear's insane insistence that | sureness lies in doubt. This has no meaning. What matters it to you |
| Tx:30.47 | all the world that worships idols and that knows not God. In perfect | sureness of its changelessness and of its rest in its eternal home, |
| Tx:31.25 | the light before you so that every step is made in certainty and | sureness of the road. A blindfold can indeed obscure your sight but |
| W1:128.6 | It knows where it belongs. But free its wings, and it will fly in | sureness and in joy to join its holy purpose. Let it rest in its |
| W1:165.4 | Till you welcome it as yours, uncertainty remains. Yet God is fair. | Sureness is not required to receive what only your acceptance can |
| W1:165.7 | for God is certain. And the Thought of Him is never absent. | Sureness must abide within you who are host to Him. This course |
| W1:165.7 | And in His Name we practice as His Word directs we do. His | sureness lies beyond our every doubt. His love remains beyond our |

| Tx:3.22 | an all-too-widespread error, do not understand the meaning of the | symbol. Correctly understood, it is a very simple parable which |
| Tx:5.41 | The ego is the | symbol of separation, just as the Holy Spirit is the symbol of peace. |
| Tx:5.41 | The ego is the symbol of separation, just as the Holy Spirit is the | symbol of peace. What you perceive in others, you are strengthening |
| Tx:5.60 | is divisive because it obeys the law of division. If the ego is the | symbol of the separation, it is also the symbol of guilt. Guilt is |
| Tx:5.60 | division. If the ego is the symbol of the separation, it is also the | symbol of guilt. Guilt is more than merely not of God. It is the |
| Tx:5.60 | the symbol of guilt. Guilt is more than merely not of God. It is the | symbol of the attack on God. This is a totally meaningless concept |
| Tx:6.16 | as I am. The crucifixion cannot be shared, because it is the | symbol of projection, but the resurrection is the symbol of sharing, |
| Tx:6.16 | because it is the symbol of projection, but the resurrection is the | symbol of sharing, because the reawakening of every Son of God is |
| Tx:6.23 | out of clearly opposed thought systems. As such, it [is] the perfect | symbol of conflict between the ego and the Son of God. [It was as |
| Tx:6.62 | it is destructible and therefore not of the Kingdom. The body is the | symbol of what you think you are. It is clearly a separation device |
| Tx:9.85 | not at war with the god of sickness you made, but you are. He is the | symbol of willing against God, and you are afraid of him, because he |
| Tx:10.43 | and independent of any power except its own. This is why it is the | symbol of separation. |
| Tx:10.64 | Resurrection must compel your allegiance gladly because it is the | symbol of joy. Its whole compelling power lies in the fact that it |
| Tx:11.32 | for the one you made out of your split mind, and which is the | symbol of death. For if you could really separate yourselves from the |
| Tx:11.86 | world, and you will realize that this is so. For this world is the | symbol of punishment, and all the laws which seem to govern it are |
| Tx:12.6 | We once said that the crucifixion is the | symbol of the ego. When it was confronted with the real guiltlessness |
| Tx:13.86 | it yours, and you will see what you sought. You will not see the | symbol of your brother's guiltlessness shining within him while you |
| Tx:14.14 | Atonement. Only the resurrection became my part in it. That is the | symbol of the release from guilt by guiltlessness. Whom you perceive |
| Tx:15.86 | without gratification what you think you want. The body is the | symbol of the ego, as the ego is the symbol of the separation. And |
| Tx:15.86 | think you want. The body is the symbol of the ego, as the ego is the | symbol of the separation. And both are nothing more than attempts to |
| Tx:16.31 | which does not exist. For symbols stand for something else, and the | symbol of love is without meaning if love is everything. You will go |
| Tx:19.56 | of grace, which means you have at last forgiven me. For I became the | symbol of your sin, and so I had to die instead of you. To the ego |
| Tx:19.57 | you can live to show it is not real. The body does appear to be the | symbol of sin while you believe that it can get you what you want. |
| Tx:19.65 | Let me be to you the | symbol of the end of guilt, and look upon each other as you would |
| Tx:19.65 | and overcame the world, you were with me. Would you see in me the | symbol of guilt or of the end of guilt, remembering that what I |
| Tx:19.81 | body they would bury? A body which they dedicated to death, a | symbol of corruption, a sacrifice to sin, offered to sin to feed upon |
| Tx:19.88 | remember it is always for one reason—the ego has perceived it as a | symbol of fear, a sign of sin and death. Remember then that neither |
| Tx:19.88 | fear, a sign of sin and death. Remember then that neither sign nor | symbol should be confused with source, for they must stand for |
| Tx:20.1 | pain. A slain Christ has no meaning. But a risen Christ becomes the | symbol of the Son of God's forgiveness of himself; the sign he looks |
| Tx:20.3 | along with mine. A week is short, and yet this holy week is the | symbol of the whole journey the Son of God has undertaken. He started |
| Tx:26.1 | a bargain, and all conflicts achieve a seeming balance. It is the | symbol of the central theme that somebody must lose. Its focus on the |

| Tx:28.56 | the limitations which it brings to you. Yet you have made of it a | symbol for the limitations which you want your mind to have and see |
| Tx:29.4 | This but seems to be dividing off your separate minds. It is the | symbol of a promise made to meet when you prefer and separate until |
| Tx:31.48 | nor can you change the things it makes you do. And you are each the | symbol of your sins to one another, silently, and yet with ceaseless |

| Tx:7.19 | that the table is now minus three apples. If there is nothing on the | table, it does not matter what was there in terms of amount. The |
| Tx:19.55 | Love, too, would set a feast before you on a | table covered with a spotless cloth, set in a quiet garden where no |
| Tx:19.55 | is said by everyone together as they join in gentleness before the | table of communion. And I will join you there, as long ago I promised |
| Tx:28.36 | waits not upon this feast, which has no end. For Love has set Its | table in the space that seemed to keep your Guests apart from you. |
| W1:1.2 | This | table does not mean anything. This chair does not mean anything. This |
| W1:28.2 | is important to say, for example, “Above all else I want to see this | table differently.” In itself it is not important at all. Yet what is |
| W1:28.3 | When you say, “Above all else I want to see this | table differently,” you are making a commitment to withdraw your |

| W1:28.4 | not an exclusive commitment. It is a commitment which applies to the | table just as much as to anything else, neither more nor less. |
| W1:28.5 | You could, in fact, gain vision from just that | table if you could withdraw all your own ideas from it and look upon |
| W1:28.6 | In using the | table as a subject for applying the idea for today, you are therefore |
| W1:29.2 | senseless, funny, and even objectionable. Certainly God is not in a | table, for example, as you see it. Yet we emphasized yesterday that a |

take (336) | ||
| Tx:I.1 | is a course in miracles. It is a required course. Only the time you | take it is voluntary. Free will does not mean that you can establish |

| Tx:2.54 | ability in matter which the mind cannot control. This error can | take two forms—it can be believed that the mind can miscreate in |

| Tx:2.88 | Everyone experiences fear, and no one enjoys it. Yet it would | take very little right-thinking to realize why fear occurs. Very few |
| Tx:2.93 | inconsistently even then. You may feel at this point that it would | take a miracle to enable you to do this, which is perfectly true. |
| Tx:4.28 | even though this is anything but true. Babies scream in rage if you | take away a knife or a scissors, even though they may well harm |
| Tx:4.36 | direction in which it can move. The direction which the mind will | take is always automatic, because it cannot but be dictated by the |
| Tx:4.100 | and no perception with which to judge such offerings. But unless you | take your part in the creation, His joy is not complete because yours |
| Tx:6.2 | and you are responsible for what you believe. You have been asked to | take me as your model for learning, since an extreme example is a |

| Tx:6.68 | This is a very preliminary step, and the only one you must | take for yourself. It is not even necessary that you complete the |
| Tx:6.69 | conflict. At this point, many try to accept the conflict rather than | take the next step towards its resolution. Having taken the first |

| Tx:6.89 | of having into being by the very nature of the steps you must | take with Him. |
| Tx:7.7 | God does not | take steps, because His accomplishments are not gradual. He does not |

| Tx:8.35 | You must be included in It, because It is everything. Unless you | take your place in It and fulfill your function as part of It, It is |
| Tx:8.45 | as God extended Himself to you. Can the creations of God Himself | take joy in what is not real? And what is real except the creations |
| Tx:8.87 | The Bible enjoins you to be perfect, to heal all errors, to | take no thought of the body as separate, and to accomplish all things |
| Tx:9.59 | time is solely at your disposal, and that nothing in the world can | take this responsibility from you. You can violate God's laws in your |
| Tx:9.88 | given your peace to the gods you made, but they are not there to | take it from you, and you are not able to give it to them. |
| Tx:9.104 | All of these illusions and the many other forms which blasphemy may | take are refusals to accept creation as it is. If God created His Son |
| Tx:10.4 | save you. I give you the lamp and I will go with you. You will not | take this journey alone. I will lead you to your true Father, Who |
| Tx:10.20 | you have allied yourself against Him. Whatever journey you choose to | take, He will go with you, waiting. You can safely trust His |
| Tx:10.63 | The God of the resurrection demands nothing, for He does not will to | take away. He does not require obedience, for obedience implies |
| Tx:10.80 | that is of God demands anything of you. God gives; He does not | take. |
| Tx:10.81 | sharing. The Holy Spirit will give you only what is yours and will | take nothing in return. For what is yours is everything, and you |
| Tx:10.90 | one you have made. And then your Father will lean down to you and | take the last step for you by raising you unto Himself. |
| Tx:11.18 | fitting offerings for Christ, and so they are not fit gifts for you. | Take off the covers and look at what you are afraid of. Only the |
| Tx:11.22 | you keep hidden, for you have not offered it to Him, and He cannot | take it from you. |
| Tx:11.51 | You who have tried to learn what you do not will should | take heart, for although the curriculum you set yourself is |
| Tx:11.84 | God in loving exchange for the world you made and which you see. But | take it from the hand of Christ and look upon it. Its reality will |
| Tx:12.22 | is not of His creation. Having given you creation, He could not | take it from you. He could but answer your insane request with a sane |
| Tx:12.70 | have and will renew them as long as you have need of them. He will | take nothing from you as long as you have any need of it. And yet He |
| Tx:12.75 | time. Salvation from the world lies only here. My peace I give you. | Take it of me in glad exchange for all the world has offered but to |
| Tx:12.75 | Take it of me in glad exchange for all the world has offered but to | take away. And we will spread it like a veil of light across the |
| Tx:13.47 | as does the ego, except that His conclusions are not insane. They | take a direction exactly opposite, pointing as clearly to Heaven as |
| Tx:13.81 | touched in any way by the decision. And everyone will be. Would you | take unto yourself the sole responsibility for deciding what can |
| Tx:14.38 | but wherein is your safety apart from it? The making of time to | take the place of timelessness lay in the decision to be not as you |
| Tx:14.41 | will return to purity and to grace. The graciousness of God will | take them gently in and cover all their sense of pain and loss with |
| Tx:14.55 | remembering Him means you are not alone and willing to remember it. | Take no thought for yourself, for no thought you hold is for |
| Tx:14.62 | truth and joyously laid down by hands open to receive, not closed to | take. Every dark lesson that you bring to Him Who teaches light He |
| Tx:14.66 | know, the Guide Whom God has given you will speak to you. He will | take His rightful place in your awareness the instant you abandon it |
| Tx:15.6 | future is hell. Even when it attacks so savagely that it tries to | take the life of someone who hears it temporarily as the only voice, |
| Tx:15.10 | Holy Spirit's use of time as a teaching aid to happiness and peace. | Take this very instant, now, and think of it as all there is of time. |
| Tx:15.12 | you are tempted to be dispirited by the thought of how long it would | take to change your mind so completely, ask yourself, “How long is an |
| Tx:15.16 | Spirit will quickly offer you the whole lesson of peace. What can | take time, when all the obstacles to learning it have been removed? |
| Tx:15.18 | How long can it | take to be where God would have you? For you are where you have |
| Tx:15.64 | to replace it in your awareness. God and the power of God will | take their rightful place in you, and you will experience the full |
| Tx:15.99 | host to Him. To Him you ascribed the ego's treachery, inviting it to | take His place to protect you from Him. And you do not recognize that |
| Tx:15.112 | been long delayed. Accept the holy instant as this year is born and | take your place, so long left unfulfilled, in the Great Awakening. |
| Tx:16.25 | God's answer to the separation added more to you than you tried to | take away. He protected both your creations and you together, keeping |
| Tx:16.25 | together, keeping one with you what you would exclude. And they will | take the place of what you took in to replace them. They are quite |
| Tx:16.41 | illusions now, and let nothing stand in the way of truth. We will | take the last foolish journey away from truth together, and then |
| Tx:16.43 | All these must be understood for what they are. Whatever form they | take, they are always an attack on the self to make the other guilty. |
| Tx:16.54 | is a ritual of form, aimed at the raising of the form to | take the place of God at the expense of content. There is no meaning |
| Tx:16.68 | which has no limit, is increased with each light that returns to | take its rightful place within it. Wait no longer, for the love of |
| Tx:17.3 | your appreciation of the whole! What you reserve unto yourself, you | take away from Him Who would release you. Unless you give it back, it |
| Tx:17.10 | that you will barely have time to thank God for it. For God will | take the last step swiftly when you have reached the real world and |
| Tx:17.35 | distract you. This gift is given you for your damnation, and if you | take it, you will believe that you are damned. You cannot have the |
| Tx:17.51 | In your newness, remember that you have started again together. And | take each other's hand to walk together along a road far more |
| Tx:17.63 | the situation which seems to be difficult, the ego will attempt to | take this aspect elsewhere and resolve it there. And it will seem to |
| Tx:18.3 | Fear is both a fragmented and a fragmenting emotion. It seems to | take many forms, and each seems to require a different form of acting |
| Tx:18.6 | For truth brought to this could only remain within in quiet and | take no part in all the mad projection by which this world was made. |
| Tx:18.15 | can be utilized to substitute illusions for truth. You do not | take them seriously on awaking because the fact that reality is so |
| Tx:18.22 | Let not the dream | take hold to close your eyes. It is not strange that dreams can make |
| Tx:18.27 | The gift is given forever, for God Himself received it. You cannot | take it back. You have accepted God. The holiness of your |
| Tx:18.28 | the Holy Spirit's will. No little, faltering footsteps that you may | take can separate your desire from His Will and from His strength. I |
| Tx:18.28 | and from His strength. I hold your hand as surely as you agreed to | take each other's. You will not separate, for I stand with you and |
| Tx:18.38 | And that is all. Add more and you will merely | take away the little that is asked. Remember you made guilt and that |
| Tx:18.94 | of love and not its Source. Here you are led that God Himself can | take the final step unhindered, for here does nothing interfere with |
| Tx:18.94 | [of forgiveness], a step still further inward but the one you cannot | take, transports you to something completely different. Here is the |
| Tx:19.89 | Take this from me and look upon it, judging it for me. Let me not see | |
| Tx:20.6 | and received. For bodies can neither offer nor accept; hold out nor | take. Only the mind can value, and only the mind decides on what it |
| Tx:20.7 | upon his altar, that they may see what he has placed upon it and | take it for their own. Here is the value that you lay upon your |
| Tx:20.21 | “What are you?” And He Who watches over all perception answered. | Take not the judgment of the world as answer to the question, “What |
| Tx:20.25 | and found each other's hand, uncertain whether to let it go or to | take hold on life so long forgotten. Strengthen your hold and raise |
| Tx:20.36 | seeming difficulty but will melt away before you reach it. You need | take thought for nothing, careless of everything except the only |
| Tx:20.41 | thus, the means and end have not been brought in line. Why should it | take so many holy instants to let this be accomplished, when one |
| Tx:20.74 | do is recognize you did this. Once you accept this simple fact and | take unto yourself the power you gave them, you are released from |
| Tx:21.21 | the statement that he has the power to make God powerless and so to | take it for himself and leave himself without what God has willed for |
| Tx:21.31 | equal faith in opposite directions. What faith you give to sin you | take away from holiness. And what you offer holiness has been removed |
| Tx:21.34 | you use but not the purpose for which you made them. He would not | take them from you, for He sees their value as a means for what He |
| Tx:22.1 | Take pity on yourselves, so long enslaved. Rejoice whom God hath | |
| Tx:22.3 | are only of the body. Therefore, he looks on nothing he would | take. He denies not his own reality, because it is the truth. Just |
| Tx:22.5 | Let reason | take another step. If you attack whom God would heal and hate the one |
| Tx:22.23 | There is no part of Heaven you can | take and weave into illusions. Nor is there one illusion you can |
| Tx:22.38 | whole purpose of coming this far was to decide which branch you will | take now. The way you came no longer matters. It can no longer serve. |
| Tx:22.59 | use, but offer Him the tiny gifts He can extend forever. He will | take each one and make of it a potent force for peace. He will |
| Tx:23.12 | each other. Both are not true. And so it matters not what form they | take. What made them is insane, and they remain part of what made |
| Tx:23.24 | His Son can tell Him this, and He has but the choice whether to | take his word for it or be mistaken. This leads directly to the third |
| Tx:23.27 | becomes your gain, and thus it fails to recognize that you can never | take away save from yourself. Yet all the other laws must lead to |
| Tx:23.28 | But in a savage world, the kind cannot survive, so they must | take or else be taken from. |
| Tx:23.32 | is the belief that it is true. It is the function of insanity to | take the place of truth. It must be seen as truth to be believed. And |
| Tx:23.36 | you do believe them. For how else could you perceive the form they | take with content such as this? Can any form of this be tenable? Yet |
| Tx:23.36 | any form of this be tenable? Yet you believe them for the form they | take and do not recognize the content. It never changes. Can you |
| Tx:23.40 | Brothers, | take not one step in the descent to hell. For having taken one, you |
| Tx:23.41 | Is it not true you do not recognize some of the forms attack can | take? If it is true attack in any form will hurt you and will do so |
| Tx:23.43 | any kind. To compromise is to accept but part of what you want—to | take a little and give up the rest. Salvation gives up nothing. It is |
| Tx:24.3 | one offering, and love is gone because you asked a substitute to | take its place. And now must war, the substitute for peace, come with |
| Tx:24.17 | vanish as his mind accepts the truth about himself as it returns to | take their place. This is the only “cost” of truth: you will no |
| Tx:24.56 | him truly. His mistakes can cause delay, which it is given you to | take from him that both may end a journey that has never been begun |
| Tx:25.15 | Be glad that it is gone within your mind to darken what is there. | Take not the form for content, for the form is but a means for |
| Tx:25.34 | You makers of a world that is not so, | take rest and comfort in another world where peace abides. This world |
| Tx:25.49 | alike. This is the function given each of you for one another. | Take it gently then from one another's hand, and let salvation be |
| Tx:25.63 | your salvation. But He cannot use what you withhold, for He cannot | take it from you without your willingness. For if He did, you would |
| Tx:25.63 | you'd have no need of Him. But this He needs—that you prefer He | take it than that you keep it for yourself alone and recognize that |
| Tx:25.76 | special really understand that justice is the same for everyone? To | take from one to give another must be an injustice to them both, |
| Tx:25.76 | he thinks he is deprived. And so must he be envious and try to | take away from whom he judges. He is not impartial and cannot fairly |
| Tx:25.81 | is decided who shall win and who shall lose—how much the one shall | take and how much can the loser still defend. |
| Tx:25.86 | bestow upon another. That is why your sole responsibility must be to | take forgiveness for yourself. The miracle that you receive, you |
| Tx:26.6 | the song your brother sings to you. And let the world recede and | take the rest his witness offers on behalf of peace. But judge him |
| Tx:26.10 | which need solving do not change, whatever form the problem seems to | take. A problem can appear in many forms, and it will do so while the |
| Tx:26.11 | the same to Him because each one, regardless of the form it seems to | take, is a demand that someone suffer loss and make a sacrifice that |
| Tx:26.30 | way your chosen teacher leads. There are but two directions you can | take while time remains and choice is meaningful. For never will |
| Tx:26.39 | the dead and gone be peacefully forgotten. Resurrection has come to | take its place. And now you are a part of resurrection, not of death. |
| Tx:26.45 | embrace. Without Him you are friendless. Seek not another friend to | take His place. There is no other friend. What God appointed has no |
| Tx:26.46 | and unoccupied? Make no illusion friend, for if you do, it can but | take the place of Him whom God has called your Friend. And it is He |
| Tx:26.48 | because perception is a wish fulfilled. Perception changes, made to | take the place of changeless knowledge. Yet is truth unchanged. It |
| Tx:26.73 | Yet the acceptance of the working out can seem to | take forever. The change of purpose the Holy Spirit brought to your |
| Tx:26.79 | of Them. It is Their Presence which has lifted holiness again to | take its ancient place upon an ancient throne. Because of Them have |
| Tx:26.88 | must be loss. Someone must lose his innocence that someone else can | take it from him, making it his own. |
| Tx:26.89 | be added, for the world is purposeless except for this. To add or | take away from this one goal is but to take away all purpose from the |
| Tx:26.89 | except for this. To add or take away from this one goal is but to | take away all purpose from the world and from yourself. And each |
| Tx:27.8 | The end of life must come, whatever way that life be spent. And so | take pleasure in the quickly passing and ephemeral. |
| Tx:27.11 | free to be remembered. Here its peace can come and perfect healing | take the place of death. The body can become a sign of life, a |
| Tx:27.22 | about yourself and who you are. What is the separation but a wish to | take God's function from Him and deny that it is His? Yet if it is |
| Tx:27.22 | if it is not His, it is not yours, for you must lose what you would | take away. |
| Tx:27.34 | unknown but is not canceled out. And thus is God left free to | take the final step Himself. [For this you need no pictures and no |
| Tx:27.34 | you need no pictures and no learning aids.] And what will ultimately | take the place of every learning aid will merely be. Forgiveness |
| Tx:27.50 | Problems are not specific, but they | take specific forms, and these specific shapes make up the world. And |
| Tx:27.58 | no effects. And this it proves because its own effects have come to | take their place. It matters not the name by which you called your |
| Tx:27.61 | And truth will be revealed to you who chose to let love's symbols | take the place of sin. |
| Tx:27.74 | Rest in the Holy Spirit and allow His gentle dreams to | take the place of those you dreamed in terror and in fear of death. |
| Tx:28.2 | there to see. Memory, like perception, is a skill made up by you to | take the place of what God gave in your creation. And like all the |
| Tx:28.11 | to them. Their own remembering is quiet now, and what has come to | take its place will not be wholly unremembered afterwards. |
| Tx:28.15 | not? And where is sacrifice, when memory of God has come to | take the place of loss? What better way to close the little gap |
| Tx:28.38 | and now. Refuse to be a part of fearful dreams whatever form they | take, for you will lose identity in them. You find yourself by not |
| Tx:28.44 | The Holy Spirit's function is to | take the broken picture of the Son of God and put the pieces into |
| Tx:28.45 | completed picture of God's Son! The forms the broken pieces seem to | take mean nothing. For the whole is in each one. And every aspect of |
| Tx:28.57 | with every brother who would walk apart. This is the secret oath you | take again, whenever you perceive yourself attacked. No one can |
| Tx:29.6 | in “love,” with intervals of hatred in between. And it will | take command of when to “love” and when to shrink more safely into |
| Tx:29.13 | them at your feet and asks you now that you will look on them and | take them for your own. He needs your help in giving them to all who |
| Tx:29.26 | dream is but a dream of fear, no matter what the form it seems to | take. The fear is seen within, without, or both. Or it can be |
| Tx:29.30 | bring happiness to you. And do not try to hurt him when he fails to | take the part which you assigned to him in what you dream your life |
| Tx:29.40 | If it be conceived to die, then die it must unless it does not | take this purpose as its own. Change is the only thing that can be |
| Tx:29.42 | a world, it is a little while till timelessness comes quietly to | take the place of time. |
| Tx:29.51 | life exists. The sacrifice of death is nothing lost. An idol cannot | take the place of God. Let Him remind you of His love for you, and do |
| Tx:29.55 | you tremble and to quail in fear. Christ's enemy is nowhere. He can | take no form in which he ever will be real. |
| Tx:30.2 | is not wise to let yourself become preoccupied with every step you | take. The proper set, adopted consciously each time you wake, will |
| Tx:30.22 | 6. This tiny grain of wisdom will suffice to | take you further. You are not coerced but merely hope to get a thing |
| Tx:30.39 | form can be a substitute for God the Father's love? What form can | take the place of all the love in the divinity of God the Son? What |
| Tx:30.47 | and death that here are dreamed, the myriad of forms that fear can | take; quite undisturbed, the Thought God holds of you remains exactly |
| Tx:30.72 | understanding is the only change that lets the real world rise to | take the place of dreams of terror. Fear cannot arise unless attack |
| Tx:30.82 | in the day, and all that happens now means something else. You | take away another element, and every meaning shifts accordingly. |
| Tx:31.20 | he does not make with us, and we fall back if he does not advance. | Take not his hand in anger but in love, for in his progress do you |
| Tx:31.26 | his sins, but only for your own. Whatever form his sins appear to | take, it but obscures the fact that you believe them to be yours and |
| Tx:31.33 | from them by leaving them behind? What must go with you, you will | take with you whatever road you choose to walk along. |
| Tx:31.44 | you. It bears no likeness to yourself at all. It is an idol, made to | take the place of your reality as Son of God. The concept of the self |
| Tx:31.79 | Whatever form temptation seems to | take, it always but reflects a wish to be a self which you are not. |
| Tx:31.84 | Choose once again if you would | take your place among the saviors of the world, or would remain in |

| W1:15.3 | As we go along, you may have many “light episodes.” They may | take many different forms, some of them quite unexpected. Do not be |
| W1:21.2 | present or anticipated, which arouse anger in you. The anger may | take the form of any reaction ranging from mild irritation to rage. |
| W1:26.3 | no longer believe in yourself. A false image of yourself has come to | take the place of what you are. |
| W1:26.6 | situations whose outcomes are causing you concern. The concern may | take the form of depression, worry, anger, a sense of imposition, |
| W1:33.5 | idea the instant you are aware of distress. It may be necessary to | take a minute or so to sit quietly and repeat the idea to yourself |
| W1:34.5 | form of temptation arises in your awareness, the exercise should | take this form: |
| W1:34.7 | If the inroads on your peace of mind | take the form of more generalized adverse emotions, such as |
| W1:34.7 | idea to help you change your mind in any specific context, try to | take several minutes and devote them to repeating the idea until you |
| W1:36.2 | protection throughout the day. The longer practice periods should | take this form: |
| W1:39.6 | fear, worry, attack, insecurity, and so on. Whatever form they | take, they are unloving and therefore fearful. And so it is from them |
| W1:40.3 | Today's exercises | take little time and no effort. Repeat today's idea, and then add |
| W1:41.2 | And foolishness it is, despite the serious and tragic forms it may | take. Deep within you is everything that is perfect, ready to radiate |
| W1:45.4 | Our three five-minute practice periods for today will | take the same general form that we used in applying yesterday's idea. |
| W1:45.12 | to you to understand the holiness of the mind that thinks with God. | Take a minute or two as you repeat the idea throughout the day to |
| W1:48.2 | and in any situation. It is strongly recommended, however, that you | take a minute or so whenever possible to close your eyes and repeat |
| W1:48.3 | you recognize as yet, you have remembered God and let His strength | take the place of yours. The instant you are willing to do this, |
| W1:51.2 | let it go by realizing that it has no meaning so that vision may | take its place. |
| W1:51.5 | with God. I am not aware of them because I have made my thoughts to | take their place. I am willing to recognize that my thoughts do not |
| W1:61.9 | necessary. This is the first of a number of giant steps we will | take in the next few weeks. Try today to begin to build a firm |
| W1:62.3 | all sense of weakness, strain, and fatigue from your mind. It will | take away all fear and guilt and pain. It will restore the |
| W1:65.1 | have invented for yourself. This is the only way in which you can | take your rightful place among the saviors of the world. This is the |
| W1:66.16 | It will not | take more than a minute, and probably less, to repeat these words |
| W1:72.1 | which are actually associated with the ego, while the ego appears to | take on the attributes of God. |
| W1:72.7 | As a body, do not let yourself be deprived of what the body offers. | Take the little you can get. God gave you nothing. The body is your |
| W1:76.10 | is replaced by something else. God's laws forever give and never | take. |
| W1:78.6 | be seen. He who was enemy is more than friend when he is freed to | take the holy role the Holy Spirit has assigned to him. Let him be |
| W1:78.12 | We will remember this throughout the day and | take the role assigned to us as part of God's salvation plan, and not |
| W1:80.1 | conflict has been given you. Accept that fact, and you are ready to | take your rightful place in God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:R2.2 | The longer practice periods will follow this general form: | take about 15 minutes for each of them, and begin by thinking about |
| W1:R2.3 | distracting thoughts. Realize that, whatever form such thoughts may | take, they have no meaning and no power. Replace them with your |
| W1:83.3 | More specific applications of this idea might | take these forms: |
| W1:91.10 | about your attributes to be corrected, and their opposites to | take their place. Say, for example: |
| W1:97.6 | The Holy Spirit will be glad to | take five minutes of each hour from your hands and carry them around |
| W1:98.1 | Today is a day of special dedication. We | take a stand on but one side today. We side with truth and let |
| W1:98.1 | and let illusions go. We will not vacillate between the two but | take a firm position with the one. We dedicate ourselves to truth |
| W1:98.1 | seek for it where it is not. In gladness we accept it as it is and | take the part assigned to us by God. |
| W1:98.2 | How happy to be certain! All our doubts we lay aside today and | take our stand with certainty of purpose and with thanks that doubt |
| W1:98.3 | in the perfect time and place. They took the stand which we will | take today that we may share their certainty and thus increase it by |
| W1:98.4 | They will be with us—all who took the stand we | take today will gladly offer us all that they learned and every gain |
| W1:98.13 | Tell Him once more that you accept the part which He would have you | take and help you fill, and He will make you sure you want this |
| W1:100.2 | choose to go against His Will? The part that He has saved for you to | take in working out His plan is given you that you might be restored |
| W1:100.4 | so your joy on earth calls to all minds to let their sorrows go and | take their place beside you in God's plan. God's messengers are |
| W1:100.5 | We will not let ourselves be sad today. For if we do, we fail to | take the part that is essential to God's plan as well as to our |
| W1:100.8 | is to be happy. Only this is asked of you or anyone who wants to | take his place among God's messengers. Think what this means. You |
| W1:103.6 | brings, as truth replaces fear, and joy becomes what you expect to | take the place of pain. God being Love, it will be given you. Bolster |
| W1:105.3 | from the gifts you give and leaves you nothing in the ones you | take. A major learning goal this course has set is to reverse your |
| W1:108.1 | will disappear because the Thought behind it will appear instead, to | take its place. And now we are at peace forever, for the dream is |
| W1:109.6 | healing. No more fearful dreams will come now that you rest in God. | Take time today to slip away from dreams and into peace. |
| W1:109.7 | Each hour that you | take your rest today, a tired mind is suddenly made glad, a bird with |
| W1:109.7 | that you came to bring the peace of God into the world that it might | take its rest along with you. |
| W1:109.10 | the peace of God today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to | take his rest and offer it to you. |
| W1:R3.12 | and places, and whenever you need help of any kind. Try, then, to | take it with you in the business of the day and make it holy, worthy |
| W1:111.3 | weakness is the dark His gift dispels by giving me His strength to | take its place. |
| W1:121.8 | learning to forgive. If you are willing, you can learn today to | take the key to happiness and use it on your own behalf. We will |
| W1:122.8 | safety and of peace. Forgiveness is the means by which it comes to | take the place of hell. In quietness it rises up to greet your open |
| W1:123.2 | Be grateful He has saved you from the self you thought you made to | take the place of Him and His creation. Give Him thanks today. |
| W1:127.6 | all the changes which you think are part of human destiny. Today we | take the largest single step this course requests in your advance |
| W1:129.5 | see again the world you do not want. Here is the world that comes to | take its place as you unbind your mind from little things the world |
| W1:129.6 | Let it be given you today. It waits but for your choosing it to | take the place of all the things you seek but do not want. |
| W1:129.11 | grateful that the choice is made. Remember your decision hourly, and | take a moment to confirm your choice by laying by whatever thoughts |
| W1:130.10 | there. For you have called upon the great unfailing Power Who will | take this giant step with you in gratitude. Nor will you fail to see |
| W1:130.12 | the release of Heaven still remains within your range of choice to | take the place of everything that hell would show to you. All you |
| W1:131.10 | a paradox in place of truth. How could the Son of God make time to | take away the Will of God? He thus denies himself and contradicts |
| W1:133.2 | ask for sorrow, not for happiness. This course does not attempt to | take from you the little that you have. It does not try to substitute |
| W1:133.7 | is valueless. A temporary value is without all value. Time can never | take away a value that is real. What fades and dies was never there |
| W1:133.8 | Next, if you choose to | take a thing away from someone else, you will have nothing left. This |
| W1:133.8 | the things you really have, denying they are there. Who seeks to | take away has been deceived by the illusion loss can offer gain. Yet |
| W1:135.11 | but merely adds to your distress of mind. You do not heal but merely | take away the hope of healing, for you fail to see where hope must |
| W1:135.15 | not difficult to realize in some forms which these self-deceptions | take, for the denial of reality is very obvious. Yet planning is not |
| W1:135.18 | which is the “threat” that your defenses would attack, obscure, and | take apart and crucify. |
| W1:135.28 | to you without your planning. Learn today. And all the world will | take this giant stride and celebrate your Eastertime with you. |
| W1:136.7 | that they stand but for your own decision of what should be real, to | take the place of what is real. |
| W1:136.18 | Healing will flash across your open mind as peace and truth arise to | take the place of war and vain imaginings. There will be no dark |
| W1:137.5 | that have not occurred. Just as the real world will arise to | take the place of what has never been at all, healing but offers |
| W1:137.16 | to hold but what you give, and to receive the Word of God to | take the place of all the foolish thoughts that ever were imagined. |
| W1:138.6 | In this insanely complicated world, Heaven appears to | take the form of choice rather than merely being what it is. Of all |
| W1:140.4 | can be nothing but a dream is not deceived by forms the dream may | take. Sickness where guilt is absent cannot come, for it is but |
| W1:140.14 | we learn today. And we will say our prayer for healing hourly and | take a minute as the hour strikes to hear the answer to our prayer be |
| W1:R4.5 | else and hold correction off through self-deceptions made to | take its place. |
| W1:R4.6 | mind holds only what you think with God. Your self-deceptions cannot | take the place of truth. No more than can a child who throws a stick |
| W1:152.8 | will be all that there ever was, eternally as it is now. And it will | take the place of self-deceptions made but to usurp the altar to the |
| W1:153.1 | its brief relationships and all the “gifts” it merely lends to | take away again, attend this lesson well. The world provides no |
| W1:153.11 | not see the light until you offer it to all your brothers. As they | take it from your hands, so will you recognize it as your own. |
| W1:153.13 | more to play our final happy game upon this earth. And then we go to | take our rightful place where truth abides and games are meaningless. |
| W1:153.20 | as He tells us, “I am here.” Your practicing will now begin to | take the earnestness of love to help you keep your mind from |
| W1:158.9 | because a vision of the holiness which lies beyond them comes to | take their place. It matters not what form they took nor how enormous |
| W1:159.9 | Take from His storehouse that its treasures may increase. His lilies | |
| W1:160.3 | could the reason be except that you had asked this stranger in to | take your place and let you be a stranger to yourself? No one would |
| W1:161.1 | Today we practice differently and | take a stand against our anger, that our fears may disappear and |
| W1:161.9 | you could scarce refrain from kneeling at his feet. Yet you will | take his hand instead, for you are like him in the sight that sees |
| W1:161.12 | of one who can forgive you all your sins, whose sacred hands can | take the nails which pierce your own away and lift the crown of |
| W1:163.3 | when the time has come for its arrival. It will never fail to | take all life as hostage to itself. |
| W1:163.8 | Whatever form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the stand we | take today. And it is given us to look past death and see the life |
| W1:167.4 | change. It is the fixed belief ideas can leave their source and | take on qualities the source does not contain, becoming different |
| W1:169.8 | forever as it always was; forever to remain as it is now. We merely | take the part assigned long since and fully recognized as perfectly |
| W1:169.10 | matter. For your part is still what all the rest depends on. As you | take the role assigned to you, salvation comes a little nearer each |
| W1:R5.1 | we are preparing for another phase of understanding. We would | take this step completely, that we may go on again more certain, more |
| W1:R5.7 | is This that waits to meet us at the journey's ending. Every step we | take brings us a little nearer. This review will shorten time |
| W1:R5.8 | I | take the journey with you. For I share your doubts and fears a little |
| W1:R5.11 | from Which I call to you is but your own. To Him we go together. | Take your brother's hand, for this is not a way we walk alone. In him |
| W1:182.8 | to you that you will not resist Him longer. In that instant, He will | take you to His home, and you will stay with Him in perfect |
| W1:182.11 | Take time today to lay aside your shield which profits nothing and | |
| W1:182.11 | universe, and yet He asks unceasingly that you return with Him and | take illusions as your gods no more. |
| W1:184.8 | body makes response to what you call him, for his mind consents to | take the name you give him as his own. And thus his unity is twice |
| W1:184.9 | all symbols of the world, forgetting them forever; yet were asked to | take a teaching function. You have need to use the symbols of the |
| W1:184.12 | inheritance He gave to those who chose the teaching of the world to | take the place of Heaven. In our practicing, our purpose is to let |
| W1:185.4 | And what bargain can give them the peace of God? Illusions come to | take His place. And what He means is lost to sleeping minds intent on |
| W1:185.9 | unrecognized in forms which shift and change with every step you | take. |
| W1:185.12 | sets the gifts of God apart from every dream that ever seemed to | take the place of truth. |
| W1:185.13 | been requested and received by anyone. God gives but to unite. To | take away is meaningless to Him. And when it is as meaningless to |
| W1:186.1 | Here is the statement that will one day | take all arrogance away from every mind. Here is the thought of true |
| W1:186.2 | to do we have the strength to do. Our minds are suited perfectly to | take the part assigned to us by One Who knows us well. |
| W1:187.6 | Nor can he fail to recognize the many forms which sacrifice may | take. He laughs as well at pain and loss, at sickness and at grief, |
| W1:187.7 | of sacrifice gives rise to all the forms that suffering appears to | take. And sacrifice is an idea so mad that sanity dismisses it at |
| W1:187.9 | on here. Be not afraid to look. The blessedness you will behold will | take away all thought of form and leave instead the perfect gift |
| W1:188.8 | We practice coming nearer to the light in us today. We | take our wandering thoughts and gently bring them back to where they |
| W1:193.3 | And He created One Who could perceive what form this law should | take, to be received by every mind which had forgotten it as it |
| W1:193.20 | the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. God will | take this final step Himself. Do not deny the little steps He asks |
| W1:193.20 | this final step Himself. Do not deny the little steps He asks you | take to Him. |
| W1:195.2 | and with happiness. Nor could the even partly sane refuse to | take the steps which He directs and follow in the way He sets before |
| W1:196.4 | Today's idea is one step we | take in leading us from bondage to the state of perfect freedom. Let |
| W1:196.4 | in leading us from bondage to the state of perfect freedom. Let us | take this step today that we may quickly go the way salvation shows |
| W1:196.8 | Our next steps will be easy if you | take this one today. From there we go ahead quite rapidly. For once |
| W1:197.1 | Here is the second step we | take to free your mind from the belief in outside force pitted |
| W1:197.4 | thankfully acknowledged by the Heart of God Himself. And would you | take them back when He has gratefully accepted them? |
| W1:197.6 | what is given you has been withdrawn. But learn to let forgiveness | take away the sins you think you see outside yourself, and you can |
| W1:198.6 | last. And as this one will fade away, the Word of God will come to | take its place, for it will be remembered then and loved. |
| W1:199.5 | it today and every day. Make it a part of every practice period you | take. There is no thought that will not gain thereby in power to help |
| W1:R6.1 | For this review, we | take but one idea each day, and practice it as often as is possible. |
| W1:R6.10 | And then repeat the idea for the day, and let it | take the place of what you thought. Beyond such special applications |
| W2:I.2 | in quiet expectation for our God and Father. He has promised He will | take the final step Himself. And we are sure His promises are kept. |
| W2:I.4 | Him with but His Word upon our minds and hearts. And wait for Him to | take the step to us that He has told us, through His Voice, He would |
| W2:I.4 | to us that He has told us, through His Voice, He would not fail to | take when we invited Him. He has not left His Son in all his madness |
| W2:I.6 | through Christ's vision we behold a world beyond the one we made and | take that world to be the full replacement of our own. |
| W2:WF.1 | sees its falsity and therefore lets it go. What then is free to | take its place is now the Will of God. |
| W2:228.1 | Shall I accept as true what He proclaims as false? Or shall I | take His Word for what I am since He is my Creator and the One Who |
| W2:WIS.1 | the means by which the mind is driven mad and seeks to let illusions | take the place of truth. And being mad, it sees illusions where the |
| W2:WIHS.5 | of Heaven is restored to God's beloved Son. Would you refuse to | take the function of completing God when all He wills is that you be |
| W2:WIRW.5 | His purpose. Now He waits but that one instant more for God to | take His final step, and time has disappeared, taking perception with |
| W2:WIRW.5 | we look upon a world forgiven, it is He Who calls to us and comes to | take us home, reminding us of our Identity which our forgiveness has |
| W2:295.1 | world. He asks this gift that He may offer peace of mind to me and | take away all terror and all pain. And as they are removed from me, |
| W2:WISC.1 | is forever and forever true. It is the invitation to God's Word to | take illusion's place, the willingness to let forgiveness rest upon |
| W2:309.2 | The step I | take today, my Father, is my sure release from idle dreams of sin. |
| W2:317.1 | special place to fill—a role for me alone. Salvation waits until I | take this part as what I choose to do. Until I make this choice, I am |
| W2:318.2 | Let me today, my Father, | take the role You offer me in Your request that I accept Atonement |
| W2:324.1 | for my salvation to me. You have set the way I am to go, the role to | take, and every step in my appointed path. I cannot lose the way. I |
| W2:327.1 | I am not asked to | take salvation on the basis of an unsupported faith. For God has |
| W2:327.1 | Him must surely come to me. This is the faith that will endure and | take me farther and still farther on the road that leads to Him. For |
| W2:330.1 | powerless when God holds out His power and His love and bids them | take what is already theirs? The mind that is made willing to accept |
| W2:332.1 | awaking to the Real. Forgiveness bids this presence enter in and | take its rightful place within the mind. Without forgiveness is the |
| W2:342.2 | Brother, forgive me now. I come to you to | take you home with me. And as we go, the world goes with us on the |
| W2:343.1 | The gift of everything can but be gain. You only give. You never | take away. And You created me to be like You, so sacrifice becomes |
| M:2.4 | choice out of an ancient past. God's Will in everything but seems to | take time in the working-out. What could delay the Power of eternity? |
| M:7.5 | self, for only such a self can be doubted. This illusion can | take many forms. Perhaps there is a fear of weakness and |
| M:13.1 | illusion, which must be displaced before another thought system can | take hold, is that it is a sacrifice to give up the things of this |
| M:15.3 | hear the Voice of Judgment in yourself? Or do you still attempt to | take His role from Him? Learn to be quiet, for His Voice is heard in |
| M:16.4 | that can be made is this—as soon as possible after waking, | take your quiet time, continuing a minute or two after you begin to |
| M:16.5 | be fairly early in the evening if it is not feasible for you to | take it just before going to sleep. It is not wise to lie down for |
| M:17.4 | perhaps too mild to be even clearly recognized. Or it may also | take the form of intense rage accompanied by thoughts of violence, |
| M:17.8 | this is even dimly grasped, the way is open. Now it is possible to | take the next step. The interpretation can be changed at last. Magic |
| M:22.2 | long, let him be content. He has decided on the direction he will | take. What more was asked of him? And having done what was required, |
| M:22.3 | A body that can order a mind to do as it sees fit would merely | take the place of God and prove salvation is impossible. What then is |
| M:23.6 | limits by and went beyond the farthest reach of learning. He will | take you with him, for he did not go alone. And you were with him |
| M:24.3 | For our purposes, it would not be helpful to | take any definite stand on reincarnation. A teacher of God should be |
| M:28.1 | consummated and surpassed with this. It is the invitation to God to | take His final step. It is the relinquishment of all other purposes, |
| M:28.6 | of those asleep and seeing there the vision of Christ's face to | take the place of what they dreamed. The thought of murder is |

| M:18.3 | “Guilt is real.” Reality is blotted out as this insane belief is | taken as replacement for God's Word. The body's eyes now “see”; its |

| Tx:21.62 | Madness is an attack on reason that drives it out of mind and | takes its place. Reason does not attack but takes the place of |
| Tx:21.62 | it out of mind and takes its place. Reason does not attack but | takes the place of madness quietly, replacing madness if it be the |
| Tx:22.31 | reason sees through it easily because it is an error. The form it | takes cannot conceal its emptiness from reason's eyes. |
| Tx:23.27 | The ego values only what it | takes. This leads to the fourth law of chaos, which, if the others |
| Tx:23.34 | who thinks that one of them is true sees what it says. Some forms it | takes seem to have meaning, and that is all. |
| Tx:23.35 | by turning on himself? How can it matter what the form this madness | takes? It is a judgment that defeats itself, condemning what it says |
| Tx:23.35 | what it says it wants to save. Be not deceived when madness | takes a form you think is lovely. What is intent on your destruction |
| Tx:23.41 | the thought entails. If the intent is death, what matter the form it | takes? |
| Tx:23.45 | they accept forgiveness side by side with the belief that murder | takes some forms by which their peace is saved? Would they be willing |

| Tx:23.47 | your wish to murder. But you are asked to realize the form it | takes conceals the same intent. And it is this you fear and not the |
| Tx:24.5 | to be defended though unrecognized, is faith in specialness. This | takes many forms but always clashes with the reality of God's |
| Tx:24.40 | knows that it is one with Him and with His Father. Specialness, too, | takes joy in what it sees, although it is not true. Yet what you seek |
| Tx:24.62 | such love is lavished? What is this parody of God's creation that | takes the place of yours? And where are they, now that the host of |
| Tx:25.10 | All this | takes note of time and place as if they were discrete, for while you |
| Tx:25.48 | is really there at all.] And this is seen and understood as each one | takes his part in its undoing, as he did in making it. He has the |
| Tx:25.53 | you believe. Think not that this belief depends upon the form it | takes. Who thinks the world is sane in any way, is justified in |
| Tx:25.66 | lack for what another has. For that is vengeance in whatever form it | takes. Justice demands no sacrifice, for any sacrifice is made that |
| Tx:26.13 | from which the Son of God is suffering, but needlessly. And so He | takes the thorns and nails away. He does not pause to judge whether |

| Tx:31.24 | as yours. He asks for what you want and needs the same as you. It | takes perhaps a different form in him, but it is not the form you |

| W1:129.2 | quick to avenge, and pitiless with hate. It gives but to rescind and | takes away all things that you have cherished for a while. No lasting |
| W1:130.12 | show to you. All you need say to any part of hell, whatever form it | takes, is simply this: |
| W1:136.6 | They aim at doing this, and this they seem to do. Every defense | takes fragments of the whole, assembles them without regard to all |
| W1:140.1 | thus must substitute illusion for illusion. One belief in sickness | takes another form, and so the patient now perceives himself as well. |
| W1:140.4 | guilt. Atonement does not heal the sick, for that is not a cure. It | takes away the guilt that makes the sickness possible. And that is |

| W1:167.2 | You call it death. Yet we have learned that the idea of death | takes many forms. It is the one idea which underlies all feelings |

| W1:195.3 | because you see in him the rival for your peace, a plunderer who | takes his joy from you and leaves you nothing but a black despair so |

| Tx:7.90 | The whole purpose of this course is to | teach you that the ego is unbelievable and will forever be |
| Tx:7.101 | very apt to confuse the two. The Holy Spirit's main function is to | teach you to tell them apart. However strange it may seem that this |
| Tx:7.105 | by the Will of God, Who has not left you comfortless. His Voice will | teach you how to distinguish between pain and joy and will lead you |
| Tx:7.109 | fear and allow him to give always without any sense of loss? Does it | teach him that this giving is his joy and that God Himself thanks him |
| Tx:7.110 | I call upon you again to remember that I have chosen you to | teach the Kingdom to the Kingdom. There are no exceptions to this |
| Tx:7.110 | teacher, because he has learned it of the Holy Spirit, Who wants to | teach him everything He knows. When a mind has only light, it knows |
| Tx:8.8 | you must learn it of Him. The ego does not know what it is trying to | teach. It is trying to teach you what you are without knowing it. The |
| Tx:8.8 | The ego does not know what it is trying to teach. It is trying to | teach you what you are without knowing it. The ego is expert only in |
| Tx:8.10 | The ego cannot | teach you anything as long as your will is free, because you will not |
| Tx:8.10 | they are one. This is the undoing of everything the ego tries to | teach. It is not, then, only the direction of the curriculum which |
| Tx:8.11 | The ego wants to | teach you that you want to oppose God's Will. This unnatural lesson |
| Tx:8.12 | part of your mind that taught you to believe they are the same to | teach you the difference between them? |
| Tx:8.16 | to listen to the Teacher who knows of light and can therefore | teach it to you. There is no limit on your learning, because there is |
| Tx:8.16 | there is no limit on your minds. There is no limit on His Will to | teach, because He was created [by unlimited Will in order] to teach. |
| Tx:8.16 | to teach, because He was created [by unlimited Will in order] to | teach. Knowing His function perfectly, He wills to fulfill it |
| Tx:8.17 | an experience of total willingness. The Holy Spirit knows how to | teach this, but you do not. That is why you need Him and why God gave |
| Tx:8.18 | His Fatherhood by placing no limits upon it. Let the Holy Spirit | teach you how to do this, for you will know what it means of God |
| Tx:8.22 | someone else. And every holy encounter in which you enter fully will | teach you this is not so. |
| Tx:8.24 | your self is the function He gave you. Fulfilling it perfectly will | teach you what you have of Him, and this will teach you what you are |
| Tx:8.24 | it perfectly will teach you what you have of Him, and this will | teach you what you are in Him. You cannot be powerless to do this, |
| Tx:8.28 | will I send you to others, and I will go to them with you so we can | teach them [union and peace]. |
| Tx:8.32 | want to be different, I will wait until you change your mind. I can | teach you, but only you can choose to listen to my teaching. How else |
| Tx:8.32 | being the Will of their Father. This is the only lesson I came to | teach, knowing that it is true. |
| Tx:8.55 | it only to reach the minds of those who believe they are bodies and | teach them through the body that this is not so, you will begin to |
| Tx:8.79 | teaches you to use your body only to reach your brothers, so He can | teach His message through you. This will heal them and therefore heal |
| Tx:8.80 | body is the proper aim for healing. Ask rather that the Holy Spirit | teach you the right perception of the body, for perception alone can |
| Tx:8.96 | really why you persist in asking the teacher who could not possibly | teach you your will. Of him you can never learn it, and this gives |
| Tx:8.98 | of guilt and, believing that punishment is inevitable, attempts to | teach himself to like it. The truth is, very simply, that no one |
| Tx:9.5 | are undone. How is this different from telling you that what you | teach you learn? Your brother is as right as you are, and if you |
| Tx:9.8 | have made. Give it to Him! You do not know how to use it. He will | teach you how to see yourself without condemnation by learning how to |
| Tx:9.21 | is an advantage to bringing nightmares into awareness, but only to | teach that they are not real and that anything they contain is |
| Tx:9.22 | If they are theologians, they are likely to condemn themselves, | teach condemnation, and advocate a very fearful solution. Projecting |
| Tx:9.25 | he is not working correctively. He believes that it is up to him to | teach the patient what is real, but he does not know it himself. |
| Tx:9.33 | If your brothers are part of you, will you accept them? Only they can | teach you what you are, and your learning is the result of what you |
| Tx:9.35 | gratitude and their appreciation of what you have given them will | teach you its value. They will become the witnesses to your reality, |
| Tx:10.21 | nothing that will obscure it enter. The Guest whom God sent you will | teach you how to do this if you but recognize the little spark and |
| Tx:10.56 | and those who are convinced by it must be deluded. Can the ego | teach truly when it overlooks truth? Can it perceive what it has |
| Tx:10.65 | of God surrounds His Son, whom the god of the crucifixion condemns. | Teach not that I died in vain. Teach rather that I did not die by |
| Tx:10.65 | the god of the crucifixion condemns. Teach not that I died in vain. | Teach rather that I did not die by demonstrating that I live in you. |
| Tx:10.90 | Yet you can learn the truth of yourself of the Holy Spirit, who will | teach you that, as part of God, deceit in you is impossible. When you |
| Tx:11.11 | to supply the loss, the basic cause of fear is removed. Thereby you | teach yourself that fear does not exist in you, for you have in |
| Tx:11.24 | meant: If you had no investment in anything in this world, you could | teach the poor where their treasure is. The poor are merely those who |
| Tx:11.38 | response pattern you need. The ego will therefore distort love and | teach you that love calls forth the responses which the ego can |
| Tx:11.38 | and teach you that love calls forth the responses which the ego can | teach. Follow its teaching, then, and you will search for love but |
| Tx:11.40 | because that is His mission. As He fulfills His mission, He will | teach you yours, for your mission is the same as His. By guiding your |
| Tx:11.48 | the meaning of love, and that is your handicap. Do not attempt to | teach yourselves what you do not understand, and do not try to set up |
| Tx:11.52 | understood, is limitless because it will lead you to God. You can | teach the way to Him and learn it if you follow the Teacher Who knows |
| Tx:11.53 | The ego is trying to | teach you how to gain the whole world and lose your own Soul. The |
| Tx:11.54 | aware that you do not know yourselves and perfectly aware of how to | teach you what you are. Because He loves you, He will gladly teach |
| Tx:11.54 | how to teach you what you are. Because He loves you, He will gladly | teach you what He loves, for He wills to share it. Remembering you |
| Tx:12.57 | him. And so it is that he can call unto himself the witnesses that | teach him that he never slept. |
| Tx:12.75 | the peace of mind that we must find together. The Holy Spirit will | teach you to awaken unto us and to yourself. This is the only real |
| Tx:13.15 | that he thinks that he has done this unto you. Would you, then, | teach him that he is right in his delusion? The idea that the |
| Tx:13.26 | healing, but He also knows of creation. He would have you see and | teach as He does, and through Him. Yet what He knows, you do not |
| Tx:13.27 | Now it is given you to heal and | teach, to make what will be now. As yet it is not now. The Son of God |
| Tx:13.42 | from Him Whose Will is peace. You have it now. The Holy Spirit will | teach you how to use it and, by projecting it, to learn that it is in |
| Tx:13.43 | be possible to exempt yourself from what the Holy Spirit wills to | teach you. Salvation is as sure as God. His certainty suffices. Learn |
| Tx:13.51 | Source of their undoing is in him. There is nothing in the world to | teach him that the logic of the world is totally insane and leads to |
| Tx:13.52 | He knows to be true, you have denied yourself, and He must therefore | teach you not to deny it. Undoing is indirect, as doing is. You were |
| Tx:13.54 | that you are miserable and not happy. The Holy Spirit cannot | teach without this contrast, for you believe that misery is |
| Tx:13.57 | that all this is not true. To these unhappy learners who would | teach themselves nothing and delude themselves into believing that it |
| Tx:13.60 | When you | teach anyone that truth is true, you learn it with him. And so you |
| Tx:13.70 | God is the happy lesson the Holy Spirit teaches and would have you | teach with Him. It is His joy to teach it, as it will be yours. |
| Tx:13.70 | Spirit teaches and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy to | teach it, as it will be yours. |
| Tx:13.71 | The way to | teach this simple lesson is merely this: guiltlessness is |
| Tx:13.71 | Therefore, make your invulnerability manifest to everyone, and | teach him that whatever he may try to do to you, your perfect freedom |
| Tx:13.71 | that can hurt you, and by refusing to allow him to think he can, you | teach him that the Atonement, which you have accepted for yourself, |
| Tx:13.72 | God is the only Cause, and guilt is not of Him. | Teach no one he has hurt you, for if you do, you teach yourself that |
| Tx:13.72 | is not of Him. Teach no one he has hurt you, for if you do, you | teach yourself that what is not of God has power over you. The |
| Tx:13.77 | The One Who knows the plan of God which God would have you follow can | teach you what it is. Only His wisdom is capable of guiding you to |
| Tx:13.80 | the Holy Spirit makes for you? Learn of His wisdom and His love and | teach His answer to everyone who struggles in the dark. For you |
| Tx:13.85 | Then let Him | teach you quietly how to perceive your guiltlessness, which is |
| Tx:13.91 | Who speaks for God and for your function as He knows it. So will He | teach you to remove the awful burden you have laid upon yourself by |
| Tx:13.91 | have laid upon yourself by loving not the Son of God and trying to | teach him guilt instead of love. Give up this frantic and insane |
| Tx:14.3 | teaches you the true condition of the Son of God. It does not | teach you what you are or what your Father is. The Holy Spirit, Who |
| Tx:14.6 | all the love you share with God He holds in trust for you. He would | teach you nothing except how to be happy. |
| Tx:14.11 | as this. You will not see yourself beyond the power of God if you | teach only this. You will not be exempt from the effects of this most |
| Tx:14.13 | Blessed are you who | teach with me. Our power comes not of us but of our Father. In |
| Tx:14.13 | knows us guiltless. I stand within the circle, calling you to peace. | Teach peace with me and stand with me on holy ground. Remember for |
| Tx:14.13 | Father's power that He has given him. Believe not that you cannot | teach His perfect peace. Stand not outside but join with me within. |
| Tx:14.20 | decision, which you made in place of the power of creation, He would | teach you how to use on your behalf. You who made it to crucify |
| Tx:14.23 | attack your sentinels. But bring them to Him, and let His gentleness | teach you that in the light they are not fearful and cannot serve to |
| Tx:14.56 | upon a brother is senseless. Let the Holy Spirit show him to you and | teach you both his love and need for love. Neither his mind nor yours |
| Tx:14.57 | give it because of what you are. Long ago we said this course will | teach you what you are, restoring to you your identity. We have |
| Tx:14.60 | Nothing you have ever learned can help you understand the present or | teach you how to undo the past. Your past is what you have taught |
| Tx:14.66 | By this refusal to attempt to | teach yourself what you do not know, the Guide Whom God has given you |
| Tx:14.69 | lessons He has not already lightened for you. The lessons you would | teach yourselves He has corrected already. They do not exist in His |
| Tx:14.70 | He Who has freed you from the past would | teach you are free of it. He would but have you accept His |
| Tx:14.71 | the miracle of oneness, and before His lesson division disappears. | Teach like Him here, and you will remember that you have always |
| Tx:15.12 | He asks no more, for He has no need of more. It takes far longer to | teach you how to be willing to give Him this than for Him to use this |
| Tx:15.17 | time into eternity. Blessed is God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to | teach God's holy Son his holiness. His joy is not contained in time. |
| Tx:15.31 | is because I learned for you that you can learn of me. I would but | teach you what is yours, so that together we can replace the shabby |
| Tx:15.75 | in His voice your own need to communicate. The Holy Spirit cannot | teach through fear. And how can He communicate with you while you |
| Tx:15.76 | safety in guilt and danger in communication. For the ego will always | teach that loneliness is solved by guilt and that communication is |
| Tx:15.79 | He perceives as clearly as He knows forgiveness is release, He will | teach you to remember that forgiveness is not loss but your |
| Tx:15.83 | The Holy Spirit asks you to respond as God does, for He would | teach you what you do not understand. God would respond to every |
| Tx:15.84 | it is the Will of God. And let Him Whose teaching is only of God | teach you the only meaning of relationships. For God created the only |
| Tx:15.91 | your thoughts will be as free as God's. As you let the Holy Spirit | teach you how to use the body only for purposes of communication and |
| Tx:15.92 | into the world. Yet you know not how to do it. Let the Holy Spirit | teach you, and let me celebrate your birth through Him. The only gift |
| Tx:15.108 | The lesson I was born to | teach and still would teach to all my brothers is that sacrifice is |
| Tx:15.108 | The lesson I was born to teach and still would | teach to all my brothers is that sacrifice is nowhere and love is |
| Tx:16.1 | very different.] He does not understand suffering and would have you | teach it is not understandable. When He relates through you, He does |
| Tx:16.6 | The unredeemed cannot redeem, yet they have a Redeemer. Attempt to | teach Him not. You are the learner; He the Teacher. Do not confuse |
| Tx:16.7 | Spirit recognizes foolish needs as well as real ones. And He will | teach you how to meet both without losing either. |
| Tx:16.17 | and attack is power. Should not this be a sufficient miracle to | teach you that your Teacher is not of you? But remember also that |
| Tx:16.23 | you that you do not regard yourself as one? For it is impossible to | teach successfully wholly without conviction, and it is equally |
| Tx:16.24 | yourself. You have taught what you are but have not let what you are | teach you. You have been very careful to avoid the obvious and not to |
| Tx:16.27 | with teaching. You have chosen this by your own willingness to | teach. Though you seemed to suffer for it, the joy of teaching will |
| Tx:16.73 | it in the special relationship, which binds you to it and would | teach you that salvation is past and that you must return to the past |
| Tx:16.75 | lays the holy instant. We said before that the Holy Spirit must | teach through comparisons and uses opposites to point to truth. The |
| Tx:17.5 | belief in them. But to give illusions to truth is to enable truth to | teach that the illusions are unreal and thus enable you to escape |
| Tx:17.15 | these shadow figures which would make the ego holy in your sight and | teach you what you do to keep it safe is really love. |
| Tx:18.28 | Each instant that we spend together will | teach you that this goal is possible and will strengthen your desire |
| Tx:18.35 | they are. Your willingness is needed only to make it possible to | teach you what they are. If you maintain you are unworthy of learning |
| Tx:18.66 | achieved their instants of success. This course does not attempt to | teach more than they learned in time, but it does aim at saving time. |
| Tx:18.92 | bruise yourself against them in traveling through. Let your Guide | teach you their unsubstantial nature as He leads you past them, for |
| Tx:19.30 | is One Who knows it is unbroken and forever changeless. This One can | teach you how to look on time differently and see beyond it, but not |
| Tx:19.57 | you my body, you whom I love, knowing its littleness? Or would I | teach that bodies cannot keep us apart? Mine was no greater value |
| Tx:19.83 | acceptance the power to release from corruption. What better way to | teach the first and fundamental principle in a course on miracles |
| Tx:19.89 | me not see it as a sign of sin and death nor use it for destruction. | Teach me how not to make of it an obstacle to peace but let You use |
| Tx:21.34 | for sin with them. The Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to | teach you that the vision of a holy relationship is all you want to |
| Tx:21.41 | The Holy Spirit will never | teach you that you are sinful. Errors He will correct, but this makes |
| Tx:21.64 | and from his Father forever and without a hope of safe return. You | teach him this, and you will learn of him exactly what you taught. |
| Tx:21.64 | this, and you will learn of him exactly what you taught. For you can | teach him only that he is as you would have him, and what you choose |
| Tx:21.85 | To bodies, yes! The thoughts that seem to kill are those which | teach the thinker that he can be killed. And so he dies because of |
| Tx:22.4 | Think what a holy relationship can | teach! Here is belief in differences undone. Here is the faith in |
| Tx:22.12 | Think what is given you, my holy brothers. This child will | teach you what you do not understand and make it plain. For his will |
| Tx:22.63 | necessary that you have other experiences more in line with truth to | teach you what is natural and true. |
| Tx:22.65 | you regret you cannot fear alone when your relationship can also | teach the power of love is there, which makes all fear impossible? Do |
| Tx:22.65 | denies the ego. Let truth decide if you be different or the same and | teach you which is true. |
| Tx:23.11 | and what is kept apart. The war against yourself was undertaken to | teach the Son of God that he is not himself and not his Father's Son. |
| Tx:23.43 | a little, love a little, and know the difference. Thus it would | teach a little of the same can still be different, and yet the same |
| Tx:24.69 | This course makes no attempt to | teach what cannot easily be learned. Its scope does not exceed your |
| Tx:24.69 | to which it must depend on what you see it for. Perception seems to | teach you what you see. Yet it but witnesses to what you taught. It |
| Tx:25.9 | it is one and so experienced. It is the Holy Spirit's function to | teach you how this oneness is experienced, what you must do that it |
| Tx:26.22 | has set. It will not go beyond this aim. Its only purpose is to | teach what is the same and what is different, leaving room to make |
| Tx:26.39 | along a road long since a memory of time gone by? [This course will | teach you only what is now.] A dreadful instant in a distant past, |
| Tx:27.16 | And everything you say or do or think but testifies to what you | teach to him. |
| Tx:27.17 | Your body can be means to | teach that it has never suffered pain because of him. And in its |
| Tx:27.77 | and avoid the things that would be hurtful. Above all, it tries to | teach itself its pains and joys are different and can be told apart. |
| Tx:27.79 | one purpose, taught in many ways. This single lesson does it try to | teach again, and still again, and yet once more that it is cause and |
| Tx:27.87 | and of pain. The form affects His answer not at all, for He would | teach you but the single cause of all of them, no matter what their |
| Tx:27.89 | like the rest. He sees no differences where none exist, and He will | teach you how each one is caused. None has a different cause from all |
| Tx:28.26 | to be victim or effect of what it made. Yet half the lesson will not | teach the whole. The miracle is useless if you learn but that the |
| Tx:28.26 | the body can be healed, for this is not the lesson it was sent to | teach. The lesson is the mind was sick that thought the body could be |
| Tx:29.16 | Yet here on earth it has a double purpose, for it can be made to | teach opposing things. And they reflect the teacher who is teaching |
| Tx:31.3 | you cannot learn them. For your power to learn is strong enough to | teach you that your will is not your own, your thoughts do not belong |
| Tx:31.5 | sought to demonstrate, and you have learned what it was made to | teach. Now does your ancient overlearning stand implacable before the |
| Tx:31.5 | ancient overlearning stand implacable before the Voice of truth and | teach you that Its lessons are not true, too hard to learn, too |
| Tx:31.40 | choose the better to deceive yourself again. This course attempts to | teach no more than that the power of decision cannot lie in choosing |
| Tx:31.40 | utterly opposed to truth is this, when the lesson's purpose is to | teach that what your brother loses you have lost and what he gains is |
| Tx:31.44 | your reality as Son of God. The concept of the self the world would | teach is not the thing that it appears to be. For it is made to serve |
| Tx:31.47 | innocence there is a lesson that the concept of the self was made to | teach. It is a lesson in a terrible displacement and a fear so |
| Tx:31.50 | to be given you. Nor can it be unlearned except by lessons aimed to | teach that you are something else. For otherwise you would be asked |
| Tx:31.59 | The world can | teach no images of you unless you want to learn them. There will come |
| Tx:31.82 | whom He asks release? And what but this is what this course would | teach? And what but this is there for you to learn? |
| Tx:31.83 | Temptation has one lesson it would | teach in all its forms wherever it occurs. It would persuade the holy |
| W1:12.2 | a measured, even tempo throughout. What you see does not matter. You | teach yourself this as you give whatever your glance rests on equal |
| W1:37.3 | Your holiness is the salvation of the world. It lets you | teach the world that it is one with you, not by preaching to it, not |
| W1:39.3 | give what you do not have. A savior must be saved. How else can he | teach salvation? Today's exercises will apply to you alone, |
| W1:54.6 | to replace loss. I would look upon the real world, and let it | teach me that my will and the Will of God are one. |
| W1:56.2 | God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My own real thoughts will | teach me what it is. |
| W1:90.5 | so that they cannot be separated by time. The Holy Spirit will | teach me this if I will let Him. And I will understand it is |
| W1:95.17 | of darkness from the world and let the light in you come through to | teach the world the truth about itself. You are One Self, in perfect |
| W1:99.14 | Then turn to Him who shares your function here, and let Him | teach you what you need to learn to lay all fear aside and know your |
| W1:101.5 | You need the practice periods today. The exercises | teach sin is not real, and all that you believe must come from sin |
| W1:103.3 | This basic error we will try again to bring to truth today and | teach ourselves: |
| W1:106.12 | of God is kept through your receiving it to give away, so you can | teach the world what giving means by listening and learning it of |
| W1:108.13 | Our very simple lesson for today will | teach you much. Effect and cause will be far better understood from |
| W1:121.7 | Each unforgiving mind presents you with an opportunity to | teach your own how to forgive itself. Each one awaits release from |
| W1:121.7 | your forgiveness that it has been saved from hell. And as you | teach salvation, you will learn. |
| W1:127.4 | No course whose purpose is to | teach you what you really are could fail to emphasize there is no |
| W1:127.8 | loving gentleness, He will abide with you as you allow His Voice to | teach love's meaning to your clean and open mind. And He will bless |
| W1:132.7 | There is no world! This is the central thought the course attempts to | teach. Not everyone is ready to accept it, and each one must go as |
| W1:132.8 | and recognize. Some see it suddenly on point of death and rise to | teach it. Others find it in experience that is not of this world, |
| W1:134.13 | for the world cannot perceive its meaning nor provide a guide to | teach you its beneficence. There is no thought in all the world which |
| W1:134.15 | Who understands the meaning of forgiveness and was sent to us to | teach it. Let us ask of Him: |
| W1:137.9 | by which the Holy Spirit urges you to follow Him. His gentle lessons | teach how easily salvation can be yours, how little practice you need |
| W1:138.5 | accepted, it is known. But knowledge is beyond the goals we seek to | teach within the framework of this course. Ours are teaching goals to |
| W1:139.9 | know that they are part of you and you of them. This does Atonement | teach and demonstrates the oneness of God's Son is unassailed by his |
| W1:151.10 | to you who are beloved of God, for He will judge all happenings and | teach the single lesson which they all contain. |
| W1:151.15 | begins as all your thoughts are purified. So are you taught to | teach the Son of God the holy lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail |
| W1:153.11 | come to realize His Will is but their own. And while you fail to | teach what you have learned, salvation waits and darkness holds the |
| W1:153.12 | and Who would replace their fearful toys with joyous games which | teach them that the game of fear is gone. His game instructs in |
| W1:157.9 | transcends all vision, even this, the holiest. This you will never | teach, for you attained it not through learning. Yet the vision |
| W1:161.3 | from the one we gave to them. Yet He can use but what we made to | teach us from a different point of view, so we can see a different |
| W1:166.13 | They do not understand they but pursue their wishes. It is you who | teach them now. For you have learned of Christ there is another way |
| W1:166.13 | you have learned of Christ there is another way for them to walk. | Teach them by showing them the happiness that comes to those who feel |
| W1:R5.7 | that this course was sent to open up the path of light to us, and | teach us, step by step, how to return to the eternal Self we thought |
| W1:R5.10 | Together we devote our time and effort to them. And together we will | teach them to our brothers. God would not have Heaven incomplete. It |
| W1:184.5 | direction for the mind to channel its perception. It is hard to | teach the mind a thousand alien names and thousands more. Yet you |
| W1:184.7 | question its effects. Learning which stops with what the world would | teach stops short of meaning. In its proper place, it serves but as a |
| W1:193.4 | joy fulfills His function now. He redirects each lesson you would | teach in hate to one in which forgiveness enters, and returns the |
| W1:196.3 | Thus do you also | teach your mind that you are not an ego. For the ways in which the |
| W1:198.5 | to yourself to hear His Voice and learn the simple lessons He would | teach, instead of trying to dismiss His words and substitute your own |
| W1:R6.11 | I offer this review for you. I place you in His charge and let Him | teach you what to do and say and think each time you turn to Him. He |
| W1:R6.11 | day by day, advancing toward the goal He set for us, allowing Him to | teach us how to go, and trusting Him completely for the way each |
| W2:296.2 | We | teach today what we would learn and that alone. And so our learning |
| W2:330.1 | we attack our minds and give them images of pain? Why should we | teach them they are powerless when God holds out His power and His |
| W2:WAI.2 | we can realize our function here, and words can speak of this and | teach it, too, if we exemplify the words in us. |
| M:I.1 | of one's time. The course, on the other hand, emphasizes that to | teach is to learn, so that teacher and learner are the same. It also |
| M:I.2 | To | teach is to demonstrate. There are only two thought systems, and you |
| M:I.2 | others learn and so do you. The question is not whether you will | teach, for in that there is no choice. The purpose of the course |

| Tx:17.4 | have established this order in reality by giving some of it to one | teacher and some to another. And so you learn to deal with part of |

| Tx:26.30 | point in different ways. And you will go along the way your chosen | teacher leads. There are but two directions you can take while time |
| Tx:26.31 | is but a little hindrance to eternity, quite meaningless to the real | Teacher of the world. Yet since you do believe in [its reality], why |
| Tx:26.32 | God gave His | Teacher to replace the one you made, not to conflict with it. And |
| Tx:26.34 | Son of God can hardly still be there for you to choose to be your | teacher. Only in the past—an ancient past, too short to make a |
| Tx:26.36 | that the past is over. Madness speaks no more. There is no other | teacher and no other way. For what has been undone no longer is. And |
| Tx:29.16 | for it can be made to teach opposing things. And they reflect the | teacher who is teaching them. The body can appear to change with |

| W1:121.6 | yourself, forgiveness must be learned by you as well, but from a | Teacher other than yourself, who represents the other Self in you. |
| W1:121.8 | all your teaching and your learning will be not of you, but of the | Teacher Who was given you to show the way to you. Today we practice |
| W1:155.3 | the truth because they have denied that it is so. And so they need a | teacher who perceives their madness, but who still can look beyond |
| W1:158.5 | The | teacher does not give experience because he did not learn it. It |
| W1:190.11 | or pain and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let our gratitude unto our | Teacher fill our hearts as we are free to choose our joy instead of |
| W1:193.12 | own salvation? Would you fail to learn the simple lessons Heaven's | Teacher sets before you that all pain may disappear and God may be |
| W1:R6.10 | to aid your practicing. Instead we give these times of quiet to the | Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of peace, and gives our |
| W2:FL.6 | ask Him to help us to learn His lessons through the Voice of His own | Teacher. Would He hurt His Son? Or would He rush to answer him and |
| M:I.1 | of the world. The reversal is characteristic. It seems as if the | teacher and the learner are separated, the teacher giving something |
| M:I.1 | It seems as if the teacher and the learner are separated, the | teacher giving something to the learner rather than to himself. |
| M:I.1 | on the other hand, emphasizes that to teach is to learn, so that | teacher and learner are the same. It also emphasizes that teaching is |
| M:1.1 | A | teacher of God is anyone who chooses to be one. His qualifications |
| M:1.1 | in Him. He has become a bringer of salvation. He has become a | teacher of God. |
| M:1.3 | There is a course for every | teacher of God. The form of the course varies greatly. So do the |
| M:1.3 | language, in any place or time or manner. It does not matter who the | teacher was before he heard the Call. He has become a savior by his |
| M:2.4 | and still again, it seems to be now. And thus it is that pupil and | teacher seem to come together in the present, finding each other as |
| M:2.4 | choice in that ancient instant which he now relives. So has the | teacher, too, made an inevitable choice out of an ancient past. God's |
| M:2.5 | When pupil and | teacher come together, a teaching-learning situation begins. For the |
| M:2.5 | teacher come together, a teaching-learning situation begins. For the | teacher is not really the one who does the teaching. God's Teacher |
| M:2.5 | For the teacher is not really the one who does the teaching. God's | Teacher speaks to any two who join together for learning purposes. |
| M:2.5 | one interest and one goal. And thus he who was the learner becomes a | teacher of God himself, for he has made the one decision that gave |
| M:2.5 | of God himself, for he has made the one decision that gave his | teacher to him. He has seen in another person the same interests as |
| M:3.1 | can look upon the Son of God as sinless. There is no one from whom a | teacher of God cannot learn, so there is no one whom he cannot teach. |
| M:3.1 | the plan includes very specific contacts to be made for each | teacher of God. There are no accidents in salvation. Those who are to |
| M:3.3 | The illusion of one permits the illusion of the other. In time, the | teacher of God seems to begin to change his mind about the world with |
| M:3.5 | the saviors of the teachers who falter and may even seem to fail. No | teacher of God can fail to find the Help he needs. |
| M:4.5 | external circumstances. These changes are always helpful. When the | teacher of God has learned that much, he goes on to the second stage. |
| M:4.6 | Next, the | teacher of God must go through a “period of sorting-out.” This is |
| M:4.7 | Therefore, the period of overlap is apt to be one in which the | teacher of God feels called upon to sacrifice his own best interests |
| M:4.8 | comes a “period of settling down.” This is a quiet time in which the | teacher of God rests a while in reasonable peace. Now he consolidates |
| M:4.8 | what he has learned. Its potential is literally staggering, and the | teacher of God is now at the point in his progress at which he sees |
| M:4.8 | what you do.” How simple is the obvious! And how easy to do! The | teacher of God needs this period of respite. He has not yet come as |
| M:4.9 | The next stage is indeed a “period of unsettling.” Now must the | teacher of God understand that he did not really know what was |
| M:4.12 | and self-deception is dishonesty. There is no challenge to a | teacher of God. Challenge implies doubt, and the trust on which God's |
| M:4.13 | implies a lack of trust, and trust remains the bed-rock of the | teacher of God's whole thought system. Let this be lost, and all his |
| M:4.13 | who stands apart? Judgment destroys honesty and shatters trust. No | teacher of God can judge and hope to learn. |
| M:4.14 | the absence of God's curriculum and its replacement by insanity. No | teacher of God but must learn—and fairly early in his training— |
| M:4.14 | make the Holy Spirit's lessons impossible to learn. Nor can God's | Teacher be heard at all except by those who realize that harm can |
| M:4.16 | attends attack. God's teachers trust in Him. And they are sure His | Teacher goes before them, making sure no harm can come to them. They |
| M:4.17 | does what God created need defense? No one can become an advanced | teacher of God until he fully understands that defenses are but the |
| M:4.17 | the fiercer and more powerful its defenses seem to be. Yet when the | teacher of God finally agrees to look past them, he finds nothing was |
| M:4.18 | The term generosity has special meaning to the | teacher of God. It is not the usual meaning of the word; in fact, it |
| M:4.19 | The | teacher of God is generous out of self-interest. This does not refer, |
| M:4.19 | This does not refer, however, to the self the world speaks of. The | teacher of God does not want anything he cannot give away because he |
| M:4.20 | afford to wait, and wait without anxiety. Patience is natural to the | teacher of God. All he sees is certain outcome, at a time perhaps |
| M:4.20 | to happen. Perhaps it was not understood at the time. Even so, the | teacher of God is willing to reconsider all his past decisions if |
| M:4.21 | The extent of the | teacher of God's faithfulness is the measure of his advancement in |
| M:4.21 | and his trust not yet firmly established. Faithfulness is the | teacher of God's trust in the word of God to set all things right— |
| M:4.23 | of open-mindedness, perhaps the last of the attributes the | teacher of God acquires, is easily understood when its relation to |
| M:4.23 | with lack of judgment. As judgment shuts the mind against God's | Teacher, so open-mindedness invites Him to come in. As condemnation |
| M:5.8 | patient must change his mind in order to be healed, what does the | teacher of God do? Can he change the patient's mind for him? |
| M:5.9 | another choice which they had forgotten. The simple presence of a | teacher of God is a reminder. His thoughts ask for the right to |
| M:6.1 | keep the illusions. Truth demonstrates illusions have no value. The | teacher of God has seen the correction of his errors in the mind of |
| M:6.2 | of God's gifts. Not one is lost, for they can but increase. No | teacher of God should feel disappointed if he has offered healing and |
| M:6.4 | Yet is its fullness guaranteed by God. What concern, then, can a | teacher of God have about what becomes of his gifts? Given by God to |
| M:7.1 | as we have already said it is, what is there to repeat? For a | teacher of God to remain concerned about the result of healing is to |
| M:7.1 | about the result of healing is to limit the healing. It is now the | teacher of God himself whose mind needs to be healed. And it is this |
| M:7.2 | Whenever a | teacher of God has tried to be a channel for healing, he has |
| M:7.2 | because the Holy Spirit so accepted it and so used it. Now the | teacher of God has only one course to follow. He must use his reason |
| M:7.3 | It is in this that the | teacher of God must trust. This is what is really meant by the |
| M:7.3 | of the miracle worker is to accept the Atonement for himself. The | teacher of God is a miracle worker because he gives the gifts he has |
| M:7.3 | That was a mistake, but hardly one to stay with. And so the | teacher of God can only recognize it for what it is and let it be |
| M:7.5 | doubt about the outcome of any problem that has been given to God's | Teacher for resolution is always self-doubt. And that necessarily |
| M:8.6 | them all in one category—they are unreal. This is the gift of its | Teacher—the understanding that only two categories are meaningful |
| M:9.1 | in his attitudes would not be the first step in the newly-made | teacher of God's training. There is however no set pattern, since |
| M:9.2 | As the | teacher of God advances in his training, he learns one lesson with |
| M:9.2 | thoroughness. He does not make his own decisions; he asks his | Teacher for His answer, and it is this he follows as his guide for |
| M:9.2 | as his guide for action. This becomes easier and easier as the | teacher of God learns to give up his own judgment. The giving up of |
| M:10.1 | taught. At any time, the student may disagree with what his would-be | teacher says about them, and the teacher himself is inconsistent in |
| M:10.1 | may disagree with what his would-be teacher says about them, and the | teacher himself is inconsistent in what he believes. |
| M:10.2 | does not mean anything. No more does “bad.” It is necessary for the | teacher of God to realize not that he should not judge, but that he |
| M:10.5 | down beneath it. And it was all illusion. Nothing more. Now can the | teacher of God rise up unburdened and walk lightly on. Yet it is not |
| M:10.6 | judgment. But it is difficult indeed to try to keep it. The | teacher of God lays it down happily the instant he recognizes its |
| M:10.6 | were but the effects of his mistaken choice, have fallen from him. | Teacher of God, this step will bring you peace. Can it be difficult |
| M:12.1 | The answer to this question is “one.” One wholly perfect | teacher whose learning is complete suffices. This One, sanctified and |
| M:12.4 | From this understanding will come the recognition in this new | teacher of God of what the body's purpose really is; the only use |
| M:12.5 | decisions which are responsible for the body's condition. Yet the | teacher of God does not make this decision alone. To do that would be |
| M:13.6 | means. It always means the giving up of what you want. And what, oh | teacher of God, is it that you want? You have been called by God, and |
| M:13.8 | Teacher of God, do not forget the meaning of sacrifice, and remember | |
| M:14.3 | all of them. The illusion of orders of difficulty is an obstacle the | teacher of God must learn to pass by and leave behind. One sin |
| M:14.3 | learn to pass by and leave behind. One sin perfectly forgiven by one | teacher of God can make salvation complete. Can you understand this? |
| M:14.4 | and go beyond its tiny reach. What, then, is the function of the | teacher of God in this concluding lesson? He need merely learn how to |
| M:14.4 | he can learn it. He does not judge it either as hard or easy. His | Teacher points to it, and he trusts that He will show him how to |
| M:15.3 | Is this your judgment on yourself, | teacher of God? Do you believe that this is wholly true? No, not yet, |
| M:15.3 | thus delay this Final Judgment. What is your judgment on the world, | teacher of God? Have you yet learned to stand aside and hear the |
| M:16.1 | To the advanced | teacher of God, this question is meaningless. There is no program, |
| M:16.1 | set, and one which can be met that very day. For the advanced | teacher of God, then, this question is superfluous. It has been asked |
| M:16.3 | save time. How much time should be so spent? This must depend on the | teacher of God himself. He cannot claim that title until he has gone |
| M:16.4 | This course is always practical. It may be that the | teacher of God is not in a situation which fosters quiet thought as |
| M:16.7 | How simply and how easily does the day slip by for the | teacher of God who has accepted His protection! All that he did |
| M:16.8 | Yet there will be temptations along the way the | teacher of God has yet to travel, and he has need of reminding |
| M:16.8 | substitute for true assistance. It is not good enough for God's | teacher, because it is not enough for God's Son. |
| M:16.9 | nor fearful. When all magic is recognized as merely nothing, the | teacher of God has reached the most advanced state. All intermediate |
| M:16.10 | the Will of God. In simple statement, it is to this fact that the | teacher of God devotes his day. Each substitute he may accept as real |
| M:17.1 | This is a crucial question both for | teacher and pupil. If this issue is mishandled, the teacher has hurt |
| M:17.1 | both for teacher and pupil. If this issue is mishandled, the | teacher has hurt himself and has also attacked his pupil. This |
| M:17.1 | of them. How to deal with magic thus becomes a major lesson for the | teacher of God to master. His first responsibility in this is not to |
| M:17.1 | to attack it. If a magic thought arouses anger in any form, God's | teacher can be sure that he is strengthening his own belief in sin |
| M:17.2 | it be forgotten that the outcome that results will always come to | teacher and to pupil. How many times has it been emphasized that you |
| M:17.2 | And where could this be better shown than in the kinds of help the | teacher gives to those who need his aid? Here is his gift most |
| M:17.3 | results. A lesson truly taught can lead to nothing but release for | teacher and pupil who have shared in one intent. Attack can enter |
| M:17.3 | the case if the result is anything but joy. The single aim of the | teacher turns the divided goal of the pupil into one direction, with |
| M:17.9 | nothing. Can nothing give rise to anger? Hardly so. Remember then, | teacher of God, that anger recognizes a reality that is not there, |
| M:18.1 | nature—and only this is true correction—cannot be made until the | teacher of God has ceased to confuse interpretation with fact or |
| M:18.5 | In order to heal, it thus becomes essential for the | teacher of God to let all his own mistakes be corrected. If he senses |
| M:18.5 | is his pupil healed with him. The sole responsibility of God's | teacher is to accept the Atonement for himself. Atonement means |
| M:18.5 | or the undoing of errors. When this has been accomplished, the | teacher of God becomes a miracle worker by definition. His sins have |
| M:21.4 | Is the | teacher of God then to avoid the use of words in his teaching? No, |
| M:21.4 | reached through words, being as yet unable to hear in silence. The | teacher of God must, however, learn to use words in a new way. |
| M:21.4 | the workbook lesson “I will step back and let Him lead the way.” The | teacher of God accepts the words which are offered him and gives as |
| M:21.5 | A major hindrance in this aspect of his learning is the | teacher of God's fear about the validity of what he hears. And what |
| M:22.1 | and every miracle has been accomplished. To forgive is to heal. The | teacher of God has taken accepting the Atonement for himself as his |
| M:22.2 | The progress of the | teacher of God may be slow or rapid, depending on whether he |
| M:22.2 | to all situations. This, however, is comparatively rare. The | teacher of God may have accepted the function God has given him long |
| M:22.3 | That forgiveness is healing needs to be understood if the | teacher of God is to make progress. The idea that a body can be sick |
| M:22.4 | himself and of all others as well. Nor is it at this level that the | teacher of God calls forth the miracle of healing. He overlooks the |
| M:22.4 | all perception. Healing is the result of the recognition by God's | teacher of Who it is that is in need of healing. This recognition has |
| M:22.5 | When a | teacher of God fails to heal, it is because he has forgotten Who he |
| M:22.5 | mistakes, and distorted perception does not heal. Step back now, | teacher of God. You have been wrong. Lead not the way, for you have |
| M:22.5 | wrong. Lead not the way, for you have lost it. Turn quickly to your | Teacher, and let yourself be healed. |
| M:22.7 | are equally meaningless. Yet this will not be understood until God's | teacher recognizes that they are the same mistake. Herein does he |
| M:23.3 | transcends the body has transcended limitation. Would the greatest | teacher be unavailable to those who follow him? |
| M:23.6 | we have laid on us. No one who has become a true and dedicated | teacher of God forgets his brothers. Yet what he can offer them is |
| M:24.3 | would not be helpful to take any definite stand on reincarnation. A | teacher of God should be as helpful to those who believe in it as to |
| M:24.4 | Until then they are likely to be merely controversial. The | teacher of God is therefore wise to step away from all such |
| M:24.5 | Does this mean that the | teacher of God should not believe in reincarnation himself or discuss |
| M:24.5 | be a mistake for him to renounce the belief unless his Internal | Teacher so advised. And this is most unlikely. He might be advised |
| M:26.3 | Sometimes a | teacher of God may have a brief experience of direct union with God. |
| M:27.7 | Teacher of God, your one assignment could be stated thus: accept no | |
| M:29.1 | This manual is not intended to answer all questions that both | teacher and pupil may raise. In fact, it covers only a few of the |
| M:29.1 | a manual for teachers, it must be remembered that only time divides | teacher and pupil, so that the difference is temporary by definition. |
| M:29.2 | No one should attempt to answer these questions alone. Surely no | teacher of God has come this far without realizing that. The |
| M:29.2 | decisions about which you understand so little? Be glad you have a | Teacher Who cannot make a mistake. His answers are always right. |
| M:29.4 | and the teaching of the world which was made to uphold it. But the | Teacher Who knows the truth has not forgotten it. His decisions bring |
| M:29.7 | And He has given you the means to prove it so. Ask all things of His | Teacher, and all things are given you. Not in the future but |
| M:29.8 | doings be you blessed. God turns to you for help to save the world. | Teacher of God, His thanks He offers you, and all the world stands |

| Tx:4.13 | This is the opposite of the ego-oriented | teacher's goal. He is concerned with the effect of his ego on other |

| Tx:3.21 | this commandment (or assignment) also applies to themselves. Good | teachers never terrorize their students. To terrorize is to attack, |

| Tx:4.21 | lesson together, so we can be free of them together. I need devoted | teachers who share my aim of healing the mind. The Soul is far beyond |

| M:1.4 | This is a manual for a special curriculum, intended for | teachers of a special form of the universal course. There are many |
| M:1.4 | all things in it. Yet time has an ending, and it is this that the | teachers of God are appointed to bring about. For time is in their |

| M:4.1 | The surface traits of God's | teachers are not at all alike. They do not look alike to the body's |
| M:4.1 | quite distinct. Nor at the beginning stages of their functioning as | teachers of God have they as yet acquired the deeper characteristics |
| M:4.1 | will establish them as what they are. God gives special gifts to His | teachers because they have a special role in His plan for Atonement. |
| M:4.1 | teaching-learning situation is geared, become characteristic of all | teachers of God who have advanced in their own learning. In this |
| M:4.2 | temporary. Nevertheless, in time it can be said that the advanced | teachers of God have the following characteristics: |
| M:4.3 | is learning, because cause and effect are never separated. The | teachers of God have trust in the world, because they have learned it |
| M:4.3 | Power that keeps all things safe. It is through this Power that the | teachers of God look on a forgiven world. |
| M:4.7 | The third stage through which the | teachers of God must go can be called a “period of relinquishment.” |
| M:4.7 | as giving up the desirable, it will engender enormous conflict. Few | teachers of God escape this distress entirely. There is, however, no |
| M:4.11 | All other traits of God's | teachers rest on trust. Once that has been achieved, the others |
| M:4.12 | The peace of mind which the advanced | teachers of God experience is largely due to their perfect honesty. |
| M:4.12 | of God. Challenge implies doubt, and the trust on which God's | teachers rest secure makes doubt impossible. Therefore they can only |
| M:4.13 | God's | teachers do not judge. To judge is to be dishonest, for to judge is |
| M:4.14 | Harm is impossible for God's | teachers. They can neither harm nor be harmed. Harm is the outcome of |
| M:4.15 | Therefore God's | teachers are wholly gentle. They need the strength of gentleness, for |
| M:4.15 | and limitless strength of gentleness? The might of God's | teachers lies in their gentleness, for they have understood their |
| M:4.16 | Joy goes with gentleness as surely as grief attends attack. God's | teachers trust in Him. And they are sure His Teacher goes before |
| M:4.17 | God's | teachers have learned how to be simple. They have no dreams that need |
| M:4.18 | and learned very carefully. Like all the other attributes of God's | teachers, this one rests ultimately on trust, for without trust, no |
| M:4.18 | generosity means “giving away” in the sense of “giving up.” To the | teachers of God, it means “giving away” in order to keep. This has |
| M:4.18 | at the simplest of levels, the word means the exact opposite to the | teachers of God and to the world. |
| M:4.22 | Faithfulness, then, combines in itself the other attributes of God's | teachers. It implies acceptance of the word of God and His definition |
| M:4.25 | You may have noticed that the list of attributes of God's | teachers does not include those things which are the Son of God's |
| M:4.25 | properly belongs on the curriculum. It is the function of God's | teachers to bring true learning to the world. Properly speaking it is |
| M:4.25 | bring, for that is “true learning” in the world. It is given to the | teachers of God to bring the glad tidings of complete forgiveness to |

| M:5.9 | To them God's | teachers come to represent another choice which they had forgotten. |
| M:5.9 | what the patient has accepted is true. As God's messengers, His | teachers are the symbols of salvation. They ask the patient for |
| M:5.10 | Not once do the advanced | teachers of God consider the forms of sickness in which their brother |
| M:5.10 | union of the One will with itself. And this is the function of God's | teachers—to see no will as separate from their own, nor theirs as |
| M:6.3 | It is not the function of God's | teachers to evaluate the outcome of their gifts. It is merely their |
| M:7.4 | to doubt its result. This is the certainty that gives God's | teachers the power to be miracle workers, for they have put their |
| M:9.1 | Changes are required in the minds of God's | teachers. This may or may not involve changes in the external |
| M:12.2 | longer be feared, for the mind sees no cause for punishment. God's | teachers appear to be many, for that is the world's need. Yet being |
| M:12.3 | truth can come only where it is welcomed without fear. So do God's | teachers need a body, for their unity could not be recognized |
| M:12.4 | Yet what makes them God's | teachers is their recognition of the proper purpose of the body. As |
| M:12.4 | thought of unity come in, and what is one is recognized as one. The | teachers of God appear to share the illusion of separation, but |
| M:12.6 | Oneness and sickness cannot co-exist. God's | teachers choose to look on dreams a while. It is a conscious choice. |
| M:12.6 | what they are? Awareness of dreaming is the real function of God's | teachers. They watch the dream figures come and go, shift and change, |
| M:12.6 | Unity alone is not a thing of dreams. And it is this God's | teachers acknowledge as behind the dream, beyond all seeing and yet |
| M:13.4 | God's | teachers can have no regret on giving up the pleasures of the world. |
| M:13.8 | and it is yours. God holds out His Word to you, for He has need of | teachers. What other way is there to save His Son? |
| M:14.2 | He brings the ending of the world with Him. It is His Call God's | teachers answer, turning to Him in silence to receive His Word. The |
| M:14.3 | goal indeed. But time stands still and waits on the goals of God's | teachers. Not one thought of sin will remain the instant any one of |
| M:14.5 | end as it began. To turn hell into Heaven is the function of God's | teachers, for what they teach are lessons in which Heaven is |
| M:16.11 | world would gladly make it if it knew it could be made. It is God's | teachers who must teach it that it can. And so it is their function |
| M:16.11 | is only this that leads to pain. “There is no will but God's.” His | teachers know that this is so and have learned that everything but |
| M:16.11 | every day and hour, and even every minute and second, must God's | teachers learn to recognize the forms of magic and perceive their |
| M:17.8 | Into this hopeless situation God sends His | teachers. They bring the light of hope from God Himself. There is a |
| M:21.5 | offer them in confidence. They are far wiser than your own. God's | teachers have God's Word behind their symbols. And He Himself gives |
| M:22.7 | power to forgive? This is insanity indeed. It is not up to God's | teachers to set limits upon Him, because it is not up to them to |
| M:23.1 | can rarely be received directly. Even the most advanced of God's | teachers will give way to temptation in this world. Would it be fair |
| M:23.7 | reached you in a language you can love and understand. Are other | teachers possible to lead the way to those who speak in different |
| M:24.6 | time. No teaching that does not lead to this is of concern to God's | teachers. All beliefs will point to this if properly interpreted. In |
| M:26.1 | In how many is this the case? Here then is the role of God's | teachers. They too have not attained the necessary understanding as |
| M:26.2 | remembering their own Identity perfectly. These might be called the | teachers of teachers, because, although they are no longer visible, |
| M:26.2 | their own Identity perfectly. These might be called the teachers of | teachers, because, although they are no longer visible, their image |
| M:26.2 | this is understood. And meanwhile they give all their gifts to the | teachers of God who look to them for help, asking all things in their |
| M:27.4 | and will attempt a thousand more. Not one can be acceptable to God's | teachers because not one could be acceptable to God. He did not make |
| M:28.6 | remains possessed of evil dreams, the thought of hell is real. God's | teachers have the goal of wakening the minds of those asleep and |

| Tx:3.14 | because you were bad. The wholly benign lesson the Atonement | teaches is lost if it is tainted with this kind of distortion in any |
| Tx:5.30 | this. This mind is the Holy Spirit, whose will is for God always. He | teaches you how to keep me as the model for your thought and to |

| Tx:6.82 | mind, and your mind only, He sorts out the true from the false and | teaches you to judge every thought that you allow to enter your mind |
| Tx:6.87 | that you can be as vigilant against the ego as for it. This lesson | teaches not only that you can be, but that you must be. It does not |
| Tx:6.87 | cut priority for vigilance. This step is unequivocal in that it | teaches there must be no exceptions, although it does not deny that |
| Tx:6.94 | to heal it. Once your mind is healed, it radiates health and thereby | teaches healing. This establishes you as a teacher who teaches like |
| Tx:6.94 | and thereby teaches healing. This establishes you as a teacher who | teaches like me. Vigilance was required of me as much as of you, but |
| Tx:7.17 | the Holy Spirit is a lesson in remembering. We said before that He | teaches remembering and forgetting, but the forgetting aspect is only |
| Tx:7.22 | purpose. Therefore, it does not really learn at all. The Holy Spirit | teaches you to use what the ego has made to teach the opposite of |
| Tx:7.24 | no connection, because the ego is discontinuous. Yet the Holy Spirit | teaches one lesson and applies it to all individuals in all |
| Tx:7.24 | all results. By teaching the power of the Kingdom of God Himself, He | teaches you that all power is yours. Its application does not matter. |
| Tx:7.26 | experiencing yourself as unreal. This is why the ego is insane; it | teaches that you are not what you are. This is so contradictory that |
| Tx:7.77 | worthy to teach another. One Teacher is in all your minds, and He | teaches the same lesson to all. He always teaches you the inestimable |
| Tx:7.77 | in all your minds, and He teaches the same lesson to all. He always | teaches you the inestimable worth of every Son of God, teaching it |
| Tx:8.6 | other, even if the other does not exist. Their conflicted curriculum | teaches them all directions exist and gives them no rationale for |
| Tx:8.9 | a teacher such as this? Does the total disregard of anything it | teaches make anything but sense? Is this the teacher to whom a Son of |
| Tx:8.10 | God who coerces you because He shares His Will with you. His Voice | teaches only His Will, but that is not the Holy Spirit's lesson |
| Tx:8.12 | We said before that the Holy Spirit | teaches you the difference between pain and joy. That is the same as |
| Tx:8.12 | difference between pain and joy. That is the same as saying that He | teaches you the difference between imprisonment and freedom. You |

| Tx:8.23 | The ego teaches that your strength is in you alone. The Holy Spirit | teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you. God wills |
| Tx:8.69 | the ego, the body is to attack with. Equating you with the body, it | teaches that you are to attack with, because this is what it |
| Tx:8.79 | The Holy Spirit | teaches you to use your body only to reach your brothers, so He can |
| Tx:9.14 | canceling out all its effects everywhere and in all respects, He | teaches that the ego does not exist and proves it. Follow His |
| Tx:9.35 | awake, but you can learn how to awaken. Very simply the Holy Spirit | teaches you to awaken others. As you see them waken, you will learn |
| Tx:9.77 | God which he has forgotten. Your recognition of him as part of God | teaches him the truth about himself, which he is denying. Would you |
| Tx:10.17 | which you accept, either from your brother or in your own mind, | teaches you that you are God's Son. In every hurtful thought you |

| Tx:10.74 | course. Perhaps you do not feel that a course which, in the end, | teaches nothing more than that only reality is true is necessary. But |
| Tx:11.37 | ego undertakes is therefore bound to be defeated. And since it also | teaches that it is your identification, its guidance leads you to a |
| Tx:11.53 | how to gain the whole world and lose your own Soul. The Holy Spirit | teaches that you cannot lose your Soul and there is no gain in the |
| Tx:11.88 | condemned. The Atonement is the final lesson he need learn, for it | teaches him that, never having sinned, he has no need of salvation. |
| Tx:11.97 | Accepting the Atonement | teaches you what immortality is, for by accepting your guiltlessness, |
| Tx:11.99 | The ego | teaches you to attack yourself because you are guilty, and this must |

| Tx:13.47 | away from them and follow the simple logic by which the Holy Spirit | teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for truth and only |
| Tx:13.57 | golden crowns because of them. All this the Holy Spirit sees and | teaches simply that all this is not true. To these unhappy learners |

| Tx:13.70 | has no power over the Son of God is the happy lesson the Holy Spirit | teaches and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy to teach it, |
| Tx:13.79 | no one in this world or Heaven could possibly commit. God's Spirit | teaches only that the “sin” of self-replacement on the throne of God |
| Tx:14.3 | mind which has denied it and thus denied Heaven to itself. Atonement | teaches you the true condition of the Son of God. It does not teach |
| Tx:14.3 | your Father is. The Holy Spirit, Who remembers this for you, merely | teaches you how to remove the blocks that stand between you and what |
| Tx:14.6 | each to share is always the same—God's Son is guiltless. Each one | teaches the message differently and learns it differently. Yet until |
| Tx:14.6 | the message differently and learns it differently. Yet until he | teaches it and learns it, he will suffer the pain of dim awareness |
| Tx:14.31 | cannot see alone. Sharing perception with Him Whom God has given you | teaches you how to recognize what you see. It is the recognition that |
| Tx:14.50 | basis at all for ordering your thoughts. This lesson the Holy Spirit | teaches by giving you shining examples to show you that your way of |
| Tx:14.60 | Atonement | teaches you how to escape forever from everything that you have |
| Tx:14.62 | not closed to take. Every dark lesson that you bring to Him Who | teaches light He will accept from you because you do not want it. And |
| Tx:14.63 | will for God's Son what His Father wills for him. Every dark lesson | teaches this in one form or another. And each bright lesson, with |
| Tx:14.63 | Holy Spirit will replace the dark ones you do not accept and hide, | teaches you that you will with the Father unto His Son. |
| Tx:14.71 | Listen in silence, and do not raise your voice against Him. For He | teaches the miracle of oneness, and before His lesson division |
| Tx:15.4 | The ego | teaches that hell is in the future, for this is what all its teaching |
| Tx:15.5 | aims together so that they seem to be reconciled. The ego | teaches thus: Death is the end as far as hope of Heaven goes. Yet |
| Tx:15.6 | The ego | teaches that Heaven is here and now because the future is hell. Even |
| Tx:15.8 | The Holy Spirit | teaches thus: There is no hell. Hell is only what the ego has made of |
| Tx:15.47 | more than others? The past has taught you this. Yet the holy instant | teaches you it is not so. |
| Tx:16.27 | shares it with him. As you learn, your gratitude to your Self, Who | teaches you what He is, will grow and help you honor Him. And you |
| Tx:16.77 | always be exactly as he was created. And everything the Holy Spirit | teaches you is to remind you that you have received what God has |
| Tx:19.72 | relationship which it keeps hidden and yet feeds upon. To you it | teaches that the body's pleasure is happiness. Yet to itself it |

| Tx:31.4 | is guilty, say not that you cannot learn the simple things salvation | teaches you! |
| Tx:31.47 | look away, lest it perceive the treachery it hides. The lesson | teaches this: “I am the thing you made of me, and as you look on me, |
| W1:130.6 | is more than just the lesson that you cannot see two worlds. It also | teaches that the one you see is quite consistent from the point of |
| W1:133.11 | no mistakes according to the dictates of his guide. This guidance | teaches it is error to believe that sins are but mistakes, for who |
| W1:159.1 | world believes that to possess a thing, it must be kept. Salvation | teaches otherwise. To give is how to recognize you have received. It |
| W1:166.14 | If you are sick, you but withhold their healing. What you fear but | teaches them their fears are justified. Your hand becomes the giver |

| W1:R5.8 | I know they have no meaning. Yet a savior must remain with those he | teaches, seeing what they see, but still retaining in his mind the |
| W2:269.1 | a world forgiven in which everyone shows me the face of Christ and | teaches me that what I look upon belongs to me, that nothing is |
| W2:WISC.3 | The Second Coming ends the lessons which the Holy Spirit | teaches, making way for the Last Judgment, in which learning ends in |
| W2:350.1 | to You. Only Your memory will set me free. And only my forgiveness | teaches me to let Your memory return to me and give it to the world |

teaching (160) | ||
| Tx:I.2 | The course does not aim at | teaching the meaning of love, for that is beyond what can be taught. |
| Tx:1.15 | is to enable man to learn to use it constructively. Time is thus a | teaching device and a means to an end. It will cease when it is no |
| Tx:1.16 | 16. Miracles are | teaching devices for demonstrating that it is more blessed to give |
| Tx:3.18 | from all errors if he believes in this. The deductive approach to | teaching accepts the generalization which is applicable to all single |

| Tx:4.10 | Teaching and learning are your greatest strengths now, because you | |
| Tx:4.13 | a means of ego preservation. I would not be able to devote myself to | teaching if I believed this, and you will not be a devoted teacher as |
| Tx:4.14 | Your worth is not established by your | teaching or your learning. Your worth was established by God. As long |

| Tx:5.42 | Spirit, the reinterpreter of what the ego made, sees it only as a | teaching device for bringing you home. The Holy Spirit must perceive |
| Tx:5.51 | is now because you have let it be now. You cannot learn except by | teaching. |
| Tx:5.52 | I heard one voice because I had learned that learning is attained by | teaching. I understood that I could not atone for myself alone. |

| Tx:6.4 | For | teaching purposes, let us consider the crucifixion again. We have not |
| Tx:6.4 | more than an extreme example. Its value, like the value of any | teaching device, lies solely in the kind of learning it facilitates. |
| Tx:6.7 | you believe that it does, you must be accepting false premises and | teaching them to others. The message which the crucifixion was |
| Tx:6.9 | so shall you learn.” If you react as if you are persecuted, you are | teaching persecution. This is not a lesson which the Sons of God |
| Tx:6.9 | You are not asked to be crucified, which was part of my own | teaching contribution. You are merely asked to follow my example in |
| Tx:6.15 | true in a very extreme case merely because it would serve as a good | teaching aid to those whose temptations to give in to anger and |
| Tx:6.22 | I am very grateful to the Apostles for their | teaching and fully aware of the extent of their devotion to me. |
| Tx:6.39 | others. Hearing and being are examples, to which we can also add | teaching and being, learning and being and, above all, projecting and |
| Tx:6.41 | unified, because it is the only lesson which is one. Only by | teaching it can you learn it. “As you teach, so will you learn.” If |
| Tx:6.41 | and it is true indeed, you must never forget that what you teach is | teaching you. What you project you believe. |
| Tx:6.43 | Yet your learning is not immortal, and you can unlearn it by not | teaching it. Since you cannot not teach, your salvation lies in |
| Tx:6.43 | not teaching it. Since you cannot not teach, your salvation lies in | teaching the exact opposite of everything the ego believes. This is |
| Tx:6.44 | share, you must have. It awakens in you through the conviction of | teaching. Remember that, if teaching is being and learning is being, |
| Tx:6.44 | awakens in you through the conviction of teaching. Remember that, if | teaching is being and learning is being, [then] teaching is learning. |
| Tx:6.44 | Remember that, if teaching is being and learning is being, [then] | teaching is learning. Everything you teach, you are learning. Teach |
| Tx:6.56 | imply a lack, which God knows is not there. God is not conflicted. | Teaching aims at change, but God created only the changeless. The |
| Tx:6.66 | takes anything back, because He wants you to keep it. Therefore, His | teaching begins with the lesson: |
| Tx:6.75 | both, which you will surely do as long as you accept both, you are | teaching conflict and learning it. Yet you do want peace, or you |
| Tx:6.88 | and are holding the belief that you can choose either one. By | teaching what to choose, the Holy Spirit will ultimately be able to |
| Tx:6.89 | Therefore, you are accepting it as it is. Since it is whole, you are | teaching peace because you believe in it. The final step will still |
| Tx:7.14 | inside it is adapted to “what you project you believe.” This is its | teaching form, since outside the Kingdom teaching is mandatory, |

| Tx:7.14 | others and therefore believe they are. In the Kingdom there is no | teaching or learning, because there is no belief. There is only |
| Tx:7.24 | Being conflict-free, He maximizes all efforts and all results. By | teaching the power of the Kingdom of God Himself, He teaches you that |
| Tx:7.26 | really learn, and therefore cannot really teach. Yet you are always | teaching. You must therefore be teaching something else as well, even |
| Tx:7.26 | really teach. Yet you are always teaching. You must therefore be | teaching something else as well, even though the ego does not know |
| Tx:7.40 | Yet we have learned that behavior is not the level for either | teaching or learning. This must be so, since you can act in |

| Tx:7.47 | them and is not receiving something equally desirable in return. His | teaching is limited, because he is learning so little. His healing |
| Tx:7.68 | of will is possible. This is the Holy Spirit's perfectly consistent | teaching. |
| Tx:7.77 | He always teaches you the inestimable worth of every Son of God, | teaching it with infinite patience born of the [love of Him for whom] |
| Tx:8.7 | joint curriculum presents an impossible learning task. They are | teaching you entirely different things in entirely different ways, |
| Tx:8.7 | which might be possible except for the crucial fact that both are | teaching you about yourself. Your reality is unaffected by both, but |
| Tx:8.9 | Simply on the grounds of your own experience with the ego's | teaching, should not this alone disqualify it as your future teacher? |
| Tx:8.11 | The Holy Spirit leads you steadily along the path of freedom, | teaching you how to disregard or look beyond everything that would |
| Tx:8.13 | The Holy Spirit's | teaching takes only one direction and has only one goal. His |
| Tx:8.17 | not. That is why you need Him and why God gave Him to you. Only His | teaching will release your will to God's, uniting it with His power |
| Tx:8.21 | are with a brother, you are learning what you are because you are | teaching what you are. He will respond either with pain or with joy, |
| Tx:8.32 | your mind. I can teach you, but only you can choose to listen to my | teaching. How else can it be, if God's Kingdom is freedom? Freedom |
| Tx:8.84 | that one form of sickness is more serious than another, He would be | teaching that one error can be more real than another. His function |
| Tx:8.93 | then, His perception of your mind brings its reality to you, He is | teaching you what you are. |
| Tx:9.14 | He teaches that the ego does not exist and proves it. Follow His | teaching in forgiveness then, because forgiveness is His function, |
| Tx:9.24 | real has happened to the unhealed healer, and he learns from his own | teaching. |
| Tx:9.71 | When you attack, you are denying yourself. You are specifically | teaching yourself that you are not what you are. Your denial of |
| Tx:10.50 | the impossible and the false from the true. According to the ego's | teaching, its goal can be accomplished, and God's purpose can not. |
| Tx:10.50 | and God's purpose can not. According to the Holy Spirit's | teaching, only God's purpose is accomplishment, and it is already |
| Tx:11.36 | is certain that love is dangerous, and this is always its central | teaching. It never puts it this way; on the contrary, everyone who |
| Tx:11.38 | love calls forth the responses which the ego can teach. Follow its | teaching, then, and you will search for love but will not recognize |
| Tx:11.46 | content. Yet creation is not of you, and poor learners need special | teaching. You have learning handicaps in a very literal sense. |
| Tx:11.49 | The result of this curriculum goal is obvious. Every legitimate | teaching aid, every real instruction, and every sensible guide to |
| Tx:11.49 | If you are trying to learn how not to learn and are using the aim of | teaching to defeat itself, what can you expect but confusion? The |
| Tx:11.75 | why the undoing of guilt is an essential part of the Holy Spirit's | teaching. For as long as you feel guilty, you are listening to the |
| Tx:11.89 | teachers, whose ultimate aim is to make themselves unnecessary by | teaching their pupils all they know. The Holy Spirit wills only this, |
| Tx:11.99 | increase the guilt, for guilt is the result of attack. In the ego's | teaching, then, there is no escape from guilt. For attack makes guilt |
| Tx:12.30 | does He regard the function of time as temporary, serving only His | teaching function, which is temporary by definition. His emphasis is |
| Tx:13.8 | Him Who knows of freedom. Unite with me under the holy banner of His | teaching, and as we grow in strength, the power of God's Son will |
| Tx:13.40 | need of contrast only here. Contrast and differences are necessary | teaching aids, for by them you learn what to avoid and what to seek. |
| Tx:13.53 | The Holy Spirit, therefore, must begin His | teaching by showing you what you can never learn. His message is not |
| Tx:13.56 | are elsewhere, begins His lesson in simplicity with the fundamental | teaching that truth is true. This is the hardest lesson you will ever |
| Tx:13.72 | imposing on himself the penalty of guilt in place of all the happy | teaching the Holy Spirit would gladly offer him. |
| Tx:14.9 | freedom from pain be his. Yet those who have failed to learn need | teaching, not attack. To attack those who have need of teaching is to |
| Tx:14.9 | to learn need teaching, not attack. To attack those who have need of | teaching is to fail to learn from them. |
| Tx:14.10 | from guilt to the eternal glory of God and His creation. And every | teaching that points to this points straight to Heaven and to the |
| Tx:14.10 | and to the peace of God. There is no pain, no trial, no fear that | teaching this can fail to overcome. The power of God Himself supports |
| Tx:14.10 | this can fail to overcome. The power of God Himself supports this | teaching and guarantees its limitless results. |
| Tx:14.11 | cannot fail and must result in peace. No one can be untouched by | teaching such as this. You will not see yourself beyond the power of |
| Tx:14.13 | but join with me within. Fail not the only purpose to which my | teaching calls you. Restore to God His Son as He created him by |
| Tx:14.13 | my teaching calls you. Restore to God His Son as He created him by | teaching him his innocence. |
| Tx:14.70 | what He has made in place of you. He would establish His bright | teaching so firmly in your mind that no dark lessons of guilt can |
| Tx:15.1 | that and nothing more. God's Teacher cannot be satisfied with His | teaching until it constitutes all your learning. He has not fulfilled |
| Tx:15.1 | until it constitutes all your learning. He has not fulfilled His | teaching function until you have become such a consistent learner |
| Tx:15.2 | that this takes time, and that the results of the Holy Spirit's | teaching are far in the future. This is not so. For the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:15.2 | time in His own way and is not bound by it. [Time is His friend in | teaching. It does not waste Him as it does you.] And all the waste |
| Tx:15.2 | time to convince you of the inevitability of the goal and end of | teaching. To the ego the goal is death, which is its end. But to the |
| Tx:15.4 | The ego teaches that hell is in the future, for this is what all its | teaching is directed to. Hell is its goal, for although the ego aims |
| Tx:15.4 | craves for you, leaves it unsatisfied. No one who follows the ego's | teaching is without the fear of death. Yet if death were thought of |
| Tx:15.8 | from fear in the ego's use of time. For time, according to its | teaching, is nothing but a teaching device for compounding guilt |
| Tx:15.8 | use of time. For time, according to its teaching, is nothing but a | teaching device for compounding guilt until it becomes |
| Tx:15.10 | what you are. Begin to practice the Holy Spirit's use of time as a | teaching aid to happiness and peace. Take this very instant, now, and |
| Tx:15.17 | God's holy Son his holiness. His joy is not contained in time. His | teaching is for you because His joy is yours. Through Him you stand |
| Tx:15.45 | The holy instant is the Holy Spirit's most useful learning device for | teaching you love's meaning. For its purpose is to suspend judgment |
| Tx:15.48 | the ego, as a learning experience which points to truth. Under His | teaching, every relationship becomes a lesson in love. |
| Tx:15.56 | of a relationship and find peace within it. Under the Holy Spirit's | teaching, all relationships are seen as total commitments, yet they |
| Tx:15.77 | as surely as damnation lies in guilt. It is the Holy Spirit's | teaching function to instruct those who believe that communication is |
| Tx:15.79 | Teacher until the holy instant has extended far beyond time. For a | teaching assignment such as His, He must use everything in this world |
| Tx:15.84 | it must be possible because it is the Will of God. And let Him Whose | teaching is only of God teach you the only meaning of relationships. |
| Tx:15.107 | The Prince of Peace was born to reestablish the condition of love by | teaching that communication remains unbroken, even if the body is |
| Tx:16.14 | have perfect faith in the Holy Spirit and in the effects of His | teaching if you were not afraid to acknowledge what He taught you. |
| Tx:16.21 | well, and yet you have not learned how to accept the comfort of your | teaching. If you will consider what you have taught and how alien it |
| Tx:16.22 | For it is certain that you judge yourself according to your | teaching. The ego's teaching produces immediate results because its |
| Tx:16.22 | that you judge yourself according to your teaching. The ego's | teaching produces immediate results because its decisions are |
| Tx:16.25 | Your | teaching has already done this, for the Holy Spirit is part of you. |
| Tx:16.25 | and gratitude to you for their creation they offer gladly to your | teaching of yourself, who is their home. You who are host to God are |
| Tx:16.26 | off in the universe, yet not beyond yourself, the witnesses to your | teaching have gathered to help you learn. Their gratitude has joined |
| Tx:16.26 | taught. For what you taught is true. Alone you stand outside your | teaching and apart from it. But with them you must learn that you but |
| Tx:16.27 | This year you will begin to learn and make learning commensurate with | teaching. You have chosen this by your own willingness to teach. |
| Tx:16.27 | willingness to teach. Though you seemed to suffer for it, the joy of | teaching will yet be yours. For the joy of teaching is in the |
| Tx:16.27 | suffer for it, the joy of teaching will yet be yours. For the joy of | teaching is in the learner, who offers it to the teacher in gratitude |
| Tx:17.7 | see this for you until you learn to see it for yourself. And all His | teaching leads to seeing it and giving thanks with Him. |
| Tx:17.44 | transformed and seen anew. The holy relationship is a phenomenal | teaching accomplishment. In all its aspects, as it begins, develops, |
| Tx:18.41 | meaning. The holy instant, your holy relationship, the Holy Spirit's | teaching, and all the means by which salvation is accomplished would |
| Tx:19.67 | what I have not done. So will you learn the freedom that I taught by | teaching freedom to each other and so releasing me. I am within your |
| Tx:20.65 | you taught yourself; vision is learned from Him Who would undo your | teaching. His vision cannot see the body because it cannot look on |
| Tx:26.30 | to those who do not understand that miracles are all the same. Yet | teaching that is what this course is for. This is its only purpose, |
| Tx:29.16 | made to teach opposing things. And they reflect the teacher who is | teaching them. The body can appear to change with time, with sickness |
| Tx:31.39 | impossible to learn. But only then. For otherwise, it is a simple | teaching in the obvious. |
| Tx:31.50 | which the world directs begun and ended with the single aim of | teaching you this concept of yourself, that you will choose to follow |

| W1:133.1 | Sometimes in | teaching there is benefit, particularly after you have gone through |
| W1:138.5 | goals we seek to teach within the framework of this course. Ours are | teaching goals to be attained through learning how to reach them, |

| Tx:9.28 | let Him fulfill His function. He needs no help for this. He will | tell you exactly what to do to help anyone He sends to you for help |
| Tx:9.51 | to recover and mobilize its energies against your release. It will | tell you that you are insane and argue that grandeur cannot be a real |
| Tx:9.58 | not vary. It merely is. Ask the Holy Spirit what it is and He will | tell you, but do not be afraid of His answer, for it comes from God. |
| Tx:9.69 | of your remembering, for God is in your memory, and His Voice will | tell you that you are part of Him when you are willing to remember |
| Tx:10.12 | for you. Ask Him, therefore, what God's Will is for you, and He will | tell you yours. It cannot be too often repeated that you do not know |
| Tx:10.25 | that it will leap into Heaven and into the Presence of God. I cannot | tell you what this will be like, for your hearts are not ready. Yet I |
| Tx:10.25 | you what this will be like, for your hearts are not ready. Yet I can | tell you and remind you often that what God wills for Himself He |
| Tx:10.71 | be partly true. If you believe in truth and illusion, you cannot | tell which is true. To establish your personal autonomy, you tried to |
| Tx:10.89 | dragons. Ask of their reality from the One who knows it, and He will | tell you what they are. For you do not understand them, and because |
| Tx:11.5 | It is surely good advice to | tell you not to judge what you do not understand. No one with a |
| Tx:11.25 | think you do not want to do. The very fact of his insistence should | tell you that he believes salvation lies in it. If you insist on |
| Tx:12.58 | Sit quietly and look upon the world you see, and | tell yourself, |
| Tx:13.83 | are in doubt what you should do, think of His Presence in you and | tell yourself this and only this: |
| Tx:13.92 | in answering your every question what to do. He knows. And He will | tell you and then do it for you. You who are tired might consider |
| Tx:15.89 | If you would but let the Holy Spirit | tell you of the love of God for you and the need your creations have |
| Tx:20.21 | is beautiful because they see their innocence in it. They did not | tell it what it was; they did not make adjustments to fit their |
| Tx:21.22 | set up your idols to something else. This other will, which seems to | tell you what must happen, you gave reality. And what would show you |
| Tx:21.26 | has any influence over you. And if you think what you have made can | tell you what you see and feel and place your faith in its ability to |
| Tx:21.53 | arose and was fulfilled in the same instant. Such would your reason | tell you if you listened. Yet such is clearly not the ego's |
| Tx:21.58 | the question which the ego will never ask. Does not your reason | tell you now the question must have come from something that you do |
| Tx:21.59 | It does not value them, but their correction. Reason will also | tell you when you think you sin, you call for help. Yet if you will |
| Tx:21.62 | their will. For they believe they see the body and let their madness | tell them it is real. Reason would be incapable of this. And if you |
| Tx:21.63 | how can what enters part be kept away from other parts? Reason would | tell you this. But think what you must recognize if it be so. |
| Tx:21.64 | you would condemn the Son of God to what can never be corrected. You | tell him by your choice that he is damned—separate from you and |
| Tx:21.64 | it disagrees with what you hold more dear than truth? Reason will | tell you that this fact is your release. Neither your brother nor |
| Tx:21.68 | And as his gratitude goes out to you who blessed him, reason will | tell you that it cannot be you stand apart from blessing. The |
| Tx:21.68 | your Father gives you for completing Him. And here alone does reason | tell you that you can understand what you must be. Your Father is as |
| Tx:21.74 | understand, he will but emphasize his helplessness and let sin | tell him that his enemy must be himself. But let him only ask himself |
| Tx:21.78 | last question you have left unanswered still. And let your reason | tell you that it must be answered and is answered in the other three. |
| Tx:21.81 | Why is the final question so important? Reason will | tell you why. It is the same as are the other three except in time. |
| Tx:21.88 | Reason will | tell you that you cannot ask for happiness inconstantly. For if what |
| Tx:22.6 | which it does accurately describe, you think is you. Reason would | tell you that the world you see through eyes which are not yours must |
| Tx:22.7 | nor to suspect that what it tells you is not true. Reason would | tell you it cannot be true because you do not understand it. God has |
| Tx:22.7 | secrets. He does not lead you through a world of misery, waiting to | tell you at the journey's end why He did this to you. |
| Tx:22.8 | except another will that is your own, apart from His? Reason would | tell you that this is no secret that need be hidden as a sin. But a |
| Tx:22.13 | not do through bodies. What, then, has joined them? Reason will | tell you that they must have seen each other through a vision not of |
| Tx:22.13 | his Self could be reborn in safety and in peace. Such did his reason | tell him; such he believed because it was the truth. |
| Tx:22.19 | Reason will | tell you that the only way to escape from misery is to recognize it |
| Tx:22.20 | Both reason and the ego will | tell you this, but what they make of it is not the same. The ego will |
| Tx:22.22 | will either escape from misery entirely or not at all. Reason will | tell you that there is no middle ground where you can pause |
| Tx:22.33 | Reason will | tell you that the form of error is not what makes it a mistake. If |
| Tx:22.35 | It could not be reality, because it can be changed. Reason will | tell you that, if form is not reality, it must be an illusion and is |
| Tx:22.45 | or anger nor by opposing them in any way. Merely by letting reason | tell you that they contradict reality. They go against what must be |
| Tx:22.48 | succeed? Can it be difficult to disregard its feeble squeaks that | tell of its omnipotence and would drown out the hymn of praise to its |
| Tx:23.24 | the truth of what has been established for His belief. His Son can | tell Him this, and He has but the choice whether to take his word for |
| Tx:24.1 | in which God is remembered is attained. It is not necessary to | tell Him what to do. He will not fail. Where He can enter, there He |
| Tx:27.39 | would want the most of all? It is your servant and your friend. But | tell it what you want, and it will serve you lovingly and well.” And |
| Tx:27.56 | your hopes. You use its eyes to see, its ears to hear, and let it | tell you what it is it feels. It does not know. It tells you but the |
| Tx:27.57 | nothing could contain what you believe it holds within. Nor could it | tell a part of God Himself what it should feel and what its function |
| Tx:28.38 | real and what is but illusion in yourself you do not know and cannot | tell apart. |
| Tx:28.54 | of pain a joy and look for lasting pleasure in the dust. It does not | tell you what its purpose is and cannot understand what it is for. It |
| Tx:29.33 | abides in you. Be very still and hear God's Voice in him and let It | tell you what his function is. He was created that you might be |
| Tx:30.2 | Do not fight yourself. But think about the kind of day you want and | tell yourself there is a way in which this very day can happen just |
| Tx:30.7 | at any time you think of it and have a quiet moment for reflection, | tell yourself again the kind of day you want, the feelings you would |
| Tx:30.29 | Christ or anti-Christ, and which you choose will join with you and | tell you what to do. |
| Tx:31.1 | no differences in false and true. You have been told exactly how to | tell one from the other and just what to do if you become confused. |
| Tx:31.61 | Yet in this learning is salvation born. And what you are will | tell you of Itself. |
| W1:16.5 | then as each one crosses your mind, hold it in awareness while you | tell yourself: |
| W1:20.2 | pleasure and pain, love and fear. You are now learning how to | tell them apart. And great indeed will be your reward. |
| W1:21.4 | which attack thoughts present themselves, hold each one in mind and | tell yourself: |
| W1:26.13 | After you have named each outcome of which you are afraid, | tell yourself: |
| W1:34.7 | idea until you feel some sense of relief. It will help you if you | tell yourself specifically: |
| W1:43.12 | day. When you are with someone else, for example, try to remember to | tell him silently, |
| W1:45.4 | the world hold us back, and we will not let the beliefs of the world | tell us that what God would have us do is impossible. |
| W1:45.6 | some four or five thoughts of your own, repeat the idea again, and | tell yourself gently: |
| W1:46.6 | have applied the idea for today to all those who have come to mind, | tell yourself, |
| W1:46.13 | kind of negative reaction to anyone, present or not. In this event, | tell him silently, |
| W1:50.3 | all seeming difficulties without effort and in sure confidence. | Tell yourself this often today. It is a declaration of release from |
| W1:53.6 | made. Whatever I see reflects my thoughts. It is my thoughts which | tell me where I am and what I am. The fact that I see a world in |
| W1:65.8 | before, but do not strain or make undue effort in doing this. Then | tell yourself: |
| W1:68.9 | nothing can harm you in any way. At the end of the practice period | tell yourself: |
| W1:69.11 | Also, be sure to | tell yourself: |
| W1:70.10 | which you sought to make real. Recognize that it was not there. | Tell yourself: |
| W1:71.12 | Give Him full charge of the rest of the practice period, and let Him | tell you what needs to be done by you in His plan for your salvation. |
| W1:71.13 | In the shorter practice periods | tell yourself often that God's plan for salvation, and only His, will |
| W1:72.12 | What is salvation, Father? I do not know. | Tell me, that I may understand. |
| W1:72.16 | What is salvation, Father? I do not know. | Tell me, that I may understand. |
| W1:73.12 | yourself of this and determining to keep your will clearly in mind, | tell yourself with gentle firmness and quiet certainty: |
| W1:74.7 | to deal quickly with any conflict thoughts that may cross your mind. | Tell yourself immediately: |
| W1:74.9 | person or persons and the situation or situations involved, and | tell yourself: |
| W1:75.10 | Tell Him you know you cannot fail because you trust in Him. Tell | |
| W1:75.10 | Tell Him you know you cannot fail because you trust in Him. | Tell yourself you wait in certainty to look upon the world He |
| W1:76.11 | upheld the world you thought you saw. Then listen further. He will | tell you more. About the love your Father has for you. About the |
| W1:76.12 | listened and understood there are no laws but God's. Then we will | tell ourselves as a dedication with which the practice period |
| W1:77.7 | be frequent and will also be devoted to a reminder of a simple fact. | Tell yourself often today: |
| W1:77.10 | not to be satisfied with less than the perfect answer. Be quick to | tell yourself, should you be tempted: |
| W1:79.10 | the form of problems today. Whenever any difficulty seems to rise, | tell yourself quickly: |
| W1:93.15 | thoughts again. Should you be tempted to become angry with someone, | tell him silently: |
| W1:94.9 | Tell yourself frequently today that you are as God created you. And | |
| W1:95.14 | Then close your eyes and | tell yourself again, slowly and thoughtfully, attempting to allow the |
| W1:95.20 | you meet today be sure to give the promise of today's idea and | tell him this: |
| W1:96.15 | If you succeed, the thoughts that come to you will | tell you you are saved and that your mind has found the function that |
| W1:96.17 | Each time today you | tell your frantic mind salvation comes from your One Self, you lay |
| W1:97.11 | every time you speak the words He offers you today, and let Him | tell your mind that they are true. |
| W1:98.13 | thoughts and limited ideas, and spend a happy time again with Him. | Tell Him once more that you accept the part which He would have you |
| W1:100.11 | Self Who calls to you today. And it is Him you answer every time you | tell yourself you are essential to God's plan for the salvation of |
| W1:101.10 | the waiting goal of peace. There is no sin. Remember this today, and | tell yourself as often as you can: |
| W1:102.7 | Besides these hourly five minute rests, pause frequently today to | tell yourself that you have now accepted happiness as your one |
| W1:105.7 | claim them as your own. Think of your “enemies” a little while, and | tell each one as he occurs to you: |
| W1:105.10 | and joy be lifted up, and what is yours can come to you at last. So | tell yourself “God's peace and joy are mine,” and close your eyes a |
| W1:106.2 | and listen to the truth. Be not deceived by voices of the dead which | tell you they have found the source of life and offer it to you for |
| W1:107.11 | Truth will correct all errors in your mind which | tell you you could be apart from Him. You speak to Him today and make |
| W1:107.15 | Do not forget your function for today. Each time you | tell yourself with confidence, “Truth will correct all errors in my |
| W1:109.11 | they rest. And we remind them of their resting place each time we | tell ourselves, |
| W1:120.3 | Today I lay aside all sick illusions of myself and let my Father | tell me Who I really am. |
| W1:121.13 | to every unforgiving mind, with yours among them. Every hour | tell yourself: |
| W1:125.8 | Father and of Son. In quiet listen to your Self today, and let Him | tell you God has never left His Son, and you have never left your |
| W1:126.11 | your brothers. Do not let your mind forget this goal for long, but | tell yourself: |
| W1:128.8 | an image of the world, refuse to lay this chain upon your mind and | tell yourself with quiet certainty: |
| W1:133.9 | for what the ego wants it fails to recognize. It does not even | tell the truth as it perceives it, for it needs to keep the halo |
| W1:134.19 | this occurs, allow your mind to see through this illusion as you | tell yourself: |
| W1:136.21 | hurt you longer. Do not be confused about what must be healed, but | tell yourself: |
| W1:151.7 | He will not | tell you that your brother should be judged by what your eyes behold |
| W1:155.14 | that you think of Him a while each day that He may speak to you and | tell you of His Love, reminding you how great His trust, how |
| W1:186.7 | depends on you and not upon this little pile of dust. What can it | tell the holy Son of God? Why need he be concerned with it at all? |
| W1:191.7 | Be glad today how very easily is hell undone. You need but | tell yourself: |
| W1:193.11 | How can you | tell when you are seeing wrong or someone else is failing to perceive |
| W2:236.1 | does not seem I am its king at all. It seems to triumph over me and | tell me what to think and what to do and feel. And yet it has been |
| W2:273.1 | let us learn how to dismiss it and return to peace. We need but | tell our minds with certainty, “The stillness of the peace of God is |
| W2:275.2 | things to You. I need be anxious over nothing. For Your Voice will | tell me what to do and where to go, to whom to speak, and what to say |
| M:7.2 | of God has only one course to follow. He must use his reason to | tell himself that he has given the problem to One Who cannot fail, |

| Tx:5.1 | and how many you have refused. This is exactly the same as | telling you that you have refused to heal yourselves. The light that |
| Tx:9.2 | the relinquishment of the ego. When you correct a brother, you are | telling him that he is wrong. He may be making no sense at the time, |
| Tx:9.5 | understand how all errors are undone. How is this different from | telling you that what you teach you learn? Your brother is as right |
| Tx:22.30 | and make way for their correction. For reason sees through errors, | telling you what you thought was real is not. Reason can see the |
| W1:28.3 | defining it in past terms. You are asking what it is, rather than | telling it what it is. You are not binding its meaning to your tiny |
| W1:32.6 | to any situation which may distress you. Apply the idea by | telling yourself: |
| W1:37.3 | the world that it is one with you, not by preaching to it, not by | telling it anything, but merely by your quiet recognition that in |
| W1:40.7 | If only a brief period is available, merely | telling yourself that you are blessed as a Son of God will do. |
| W1:47.3 | for Him in all situations and in every aspect of all situations, | telling you exactly what to do to call upon His strength and His |
| W1:47.4 | your life which you have invested with fear, dismissing each one by | telling yourself, |
| W1:61.5 | each one need not exceed a minute or two. They should begin with | telling yourself: |
| W1:64.11 | reviewing the thoughts and look slowly and unselectively about you, | telling yourself: |
| W1:65.6 | as little involvement or concern as possible, dismissing each one by | telling yourself: |

| Tx:6.34 | Holy Spirit can speak only for this because he speaks for God. He | tells you to return your whole mind to God, because it has never left |
| Tx:6.35 | can so easily make the idea seem so difficult. Yet the Holy Spirit | tells you that even return is unnecessary because what never happened |
| Tx:6.63 | Spirit is the motivation for miracles. This is because He always | tells you that only the mind is real since only the mind can be |
| Tx:9.29 | direct and very simple learning situation, it provides the Guide who | tells you what to do. If you do it, you will see that it works. Its |
| Tx:10.12 | repeated that you do not know it. Whenever what the Holy Spirit | tells you appears to be coercive, it is only because you do not |

| Tx:11.75 | as you feel guilty, you are listening to the voice of the ego, which | tells you that you have been treacherous to God and therefore deserve |
| Tx:12.39 | Yet He would release you from it and set you free. His sane answer | tells you that what you have offered yourself is not true, but His |
| Tx:12.69 | Everything that the ego | tells you that you need will hurt you. For although the ego urges you |
| Tx:13.18 | Do not be afraid to look within. The ego | tells you all is black with guilt within you and bids you not to |
| Tx:14.54 | the ego can no longer defend its lack of content. The fact of union | tells them it is not true. |
| Tx:15.6 | temporarily as the only voice, it speaks of hell even to him. For it | tells him hell is here and bids him leap from hell into oblivion. The |
| Tx:19.73 | that here the sender and receiver are the same. The Holy Spirit | tells you this with joy. The ego hides it, for it would keep you |
| Tx:21.42 | unknown “enemy,” Whom it cannot even see, it fears. Loudly the ego | tells you not to look inward, for if you do, your eyes will light on |
| Tx:21.44 | moving inward, past insanity and on to reason. And what your reason | tells you now, the ego would not hear. The Holy Spirit's purpose was |
| Tx:21.45 | something else. Think not that this is madness. For this your reason | tells you, and it follows perfectly from what you have already |
| Tx:21.60 | by you without your brother. Sin would maintain it can. Yet reason | tells you that you cannot see your brother or yourself as sinful and |
| Tx:21.60 | apart from it? Sin would maintain you must be separate. But reason | tells you that this must be wrong. If you are joined, how could it be |
| Tx:21.63 | its purpose real. To see the body as a barrier between what reason | tells you must be joined must be insane. Nor could you see it if you |
| Tx:21.65 | with you. You are responsible for how he sees himself. And reason | tells you it is given you to change his whole mind, which is one with |
| Tx:22.7 | sees, you have no reason not to listen nor to suspect that what it | tells you is not true. Reason would tell you it cannot be true |
| Tx:22.9 | You will perceive no difficulty in understanding what this vision | tells you, for everyone sees only what he thinks he is. And what your |
| Tx:22.21 | must be made. Faith and belief can fall to either side, but reason | tells you that misery lies only on one side and joy upon the other. |
| Tx:22.30 | between sin and mistakes because it wants correction. Therefore, it | tells you what you thought was uncorrectable can be corrected, and |
| Tx:25.5 | in you except you look on holiness and see Him there? Perception | tells you, you are manifest in what you see. Behold the body, and you |
| Tx:25.5 | and above all, your death. And would you not despise the one who | tells you this and seek his death instead? The message and the |
| Tx:27.39 | serve you lovingly and well.” And this is not a question, for it | tells you what you want and where to go for it. It leaves no room to |
| Tx:27.42 | not if sacrifice is meaningful at all. And so unless the answer | tells “of whom,” it will remain unrecognized, unheard, and thus the |
| Tx:27.56 | hear, and let it tell you what it is it feels. It does not know. It | tells you but the names you gave it to use when you call forth the |
| Tx:27.77 | and be believed. It takes the central place in every dream, which | tells the story of how it was made by other bodies, born into the |
| Tx:29.5 | your ability to make communion with each other's mind. And now it | tells you where to go and how to go there, what is feasible for you |
| Tx:29.60 | intrude upon his peace. It is for him the Holy Spirit speaks and | tells you idols have no purpose here. For more than Heaven can you |
| Tx:30.33 | understand that to oppose the Holy Spirit is to fight yourself? He | tells you but your will; He speaks for you. In His divinity is but |
| W1:55.2 | God. Therefore I also do not understand His Son. What I see | tells me that I do not know who I am. I am determined to see the |
| W1:61.3 | that you accept today's idea because it is God's Voice Which | tells you it is true. This is a beginning step in accepting your real |
| W1:67.8 | practice periods that this is not your tiny solitary voice that | tells you this. This is the Voice for God reminding you of your |
| W1:67.8 | Self. This is the Voice of truth replacing everything that the ego | tells you about yourself with the simple truth about the Son of God. |
| W1:76.2 | forever seek where it is not and never find it. The idea for today | tells you once again how simple is salvation. Look for it where it |
| W1:76.11 | Hear Him Who | tells you this, and realize how foolish are the laws you thought |
| W1:99.18 | Your only function | tells you you are one. Remind yourself of this between the times you |
| W1:110.8 | save whoever touches Him however lightly, asking for the Word that | tells him he is brother unto Him. |
| W1:132.6 | if you would understand the lesson for today. It is not pride which | tells you that you made the world you see and that it changes as you |
| W1:151.5 | This thing it speaks of and would yet defend it | tells you is yourself. And you believe that this is so with stubborn |
| W1:153.20 | undermine our certainty of purpose. We will pause a moment as He | tells us, “I am here.” Your practicing will now begin to take the |
| W1:186.5 | their stance. Yet are the humble free to hear the Voice which | tells them what they are and what to do. |
| W1:186.12 | Let not its voice direct you. Hear instead a certain Voice Which | tells you of a function given you by your Creator, Who remembers you |
| W2:254.2 | And in the stillness, hallowed by His Love, God speaks to us and | tells us of our will, as we have chosen to remember Him. |
| W2:275.1 | and learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For the Voice of God | tells us of things we cannot understand alone, nor learn apart. It is |

| M:12.5 | God's Voice will tell him when he has fulfilled his role, just as It | tells him what his function is. He does not suffer either in going or |
| M:14.4 | to go in its direction. He need merely trust that, if God's Voice | tells him it is a lesson he can learn, he can learn it. He does not |

| Tx:2.45 | Perceiving the body as a | temple is only the first step in correcting this kind of distortion. |

| Tx:2.45 | unwillingness to reach the altar itself. The real beauty of the | temple cannot be seen with the physical eye. The Spiritual eye, on |

| Tx:3.76 | a particularly curious idea in view of the fact that no one uses the | term to refer to the physical father. It refers to an image of a |

| Tx:4.31 | less predatory. This “self esteem” is always vulnerable to stress, a | term which actually refers to a condition in which the delusion of |

| Tx:4.6 | Every symptom which the ego has made involves a contradiction in | terms. This is because the mind is split between the ego and the |
| Tx:4.31 | an attempt to convince itself that it is real. “Self esteem” in ego | terms means nothing more than that the ego has deluded itself into |
| Tx:4.34 | which is greater than itself. This is why self-esteem in ego | terms must be a delusion. The creations of God do not create myths, |
| Tx:4.70 | this demented state is essential to the ego, which judges only in | terms of threat or non-threat to itself. In one sense the ego's fear |

| Tx:5.49 | it lacks the healing potential it holds. You made the distinction in | terms of feelings, which led to a decision not to repeat the error, |
| Tx:5.83 | frequently in the Bible and also in this course under many different | terms. For example, “God will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is |
| Tx:6.4 | of punishment. Nothing, however, can be really explained in negative | terms only. There is a positive interpretation of the crucifixion |
| Tx:7.13 | with a description of the inevitable outcomes of the revelation in | terms of sharing. A person conceives of himself as separate largely |
| Tx:7.13 | himself as a mind can [he overcome this]. Then he is free to use | terms like “intramental” and “intermental” without seeing them as |
| Tx:7.19 | there is nothing on the table, it does not matter what was there in | terms of amount. The “nothing” is neither greater nor less because of |
| Tx:7.45 | they are made by fear. The “fearful healer” is a contradiction in | terms and is therefore a concept which only a conflicted mind could |
| Tx:8.3 | asked to dispel them alone. You are merely asked to evaluate them in | terms of their results to you. If you do not want them on the basis |
| Tx:8.48 | will” does not mean anything, [because it is] a contradiction in | terms which actually leaves nothing. [You can make yourself powerless |
| Tx:8.70 | The reason why definitions in | terms of function are inferior is that they may well be inaccurate. |
| Tx:9.1 | the Holy Spirit would have you maintain. Egos are critical in | terms of the kind of “sense” they stand for. They understand this |
| Tx:9.24 | It is noteworthy that this is a contradiction even in the ego's | terms, and one which it usually does note, even in its confusion. If |

| Tx:11.49 | ego's rule is, “Seek and do not find.” Translated into curricular | terms, this is the same as saying, “Try to learn but do not succeed.” |
| Tx:12.26 | it brings the past to the future by interpreting the present in past | terms. |
| Tx:13.12 | pain, for faith in it is pain. And faith can be rewarded only in | terms of the belief in which the faith was placed. Faith makes the |
| Tx:15.46 | your own needs and acquired methods for meeting them on your own | terms. We said before that to limit love to part of the Sonship is to |

| Tx:16.34 | no conflict in the choice between truth and illusion. Seen in these | terms, no one would hesitate. But conflict enters the instant the |
| Tx:17.32 | is but a system of delusions. You recognize, at least in general | terms, that the ego is insane. Yet the special relationship still |
| Tx:24.55 | that you might see the truth about yourself set forth at last in | terms you recognized and understood? |
| Tx:26.68 | The nearer it is brought to where it is, the more you think of it in | terms of space. |

| Tx:28.63 | No forms of sickness are immune because the choice cannot be made in | terms of form. The choice of sickness seems to be a form, yet it is |
| Tx:30.11 | asked a question by yourself and must have set an answer in your | terms. Then say, |
| Tx:30.13 | This cancels out the | terms which you have set and lets the answer show you what the |

| W1:12.5 | one, and a “satisfying world” implies an “unsatisfying” one. All | terms which cross your mind are suitable subjects for today's |
| W1:14.6 | case, name the “disaster” quite specifically. Do not use general | terms. For example, do not say, “God did not create illness,” but, |
| W1:19.3 | it contains at that time. As you consider each one, name it in | terms of the central person or theme it contains and, holding it in |
| W1:25.2 | You perceive the world and everything in it as meaningful in | terms of ego goals. These goals have nothing to do with your own best |
| W1:28.3 | to what it is and what it is for. You are not defining it in past | terms. You are asking what it is, rather than telling it what it is. |
| W1:35.4 | your eyes and search your mind for the various kinds of descriptive | terms in which you see yourself. Include all of the ego-based |
| W1:35.5 | of the exercise period, however, more self-inflating descriptive | terms may well cross your mind. Try to recognize that the direction |
| W1:35.8 | You should not think of these | terms in an abstract way. They will occur to you as various |
| W1:35.8 | situation that occurs to you, identify the descriptive term or | terms which you feel are applicable to your reactions to that |
| W1:73.1 | in which your belief can be very strong. But they are idle indeed in | terms of creation. They make nothing that is real. |
| W1:92.1 | is an extension of the previous one. You do not think of light in | terms of strength and darkness in terms of weakness. That is because |
| W1:92.1 | one. You do not think of light in terms of strength and darkness in | terms of weakness. That is because your idea of what seeing means is |
| W1:95.6 | of your goal and regular attempts to reach it. Regularity in | terms of time is not the ideal requirement for the most beneficial |
| W1:98.5 | here? Is not five minutes of the hour but a small request to make in | terms of a reward so great it has no measure? You have made a |
| W1:99.1 | something apart or different from the Will of God. Thus do both | terms imply the thought of the impossible which has occurred, |
| W1:105.5 | unto itself. It adds to all that is complete already, not in simple | terms of adding more, for that implies that it was less before. It |

| W1:134.10 | Thus will you see alternatives for choice in | terms which render choosing meaningful and keep your mind as free of |
| W1:184.1 | all things to which you give a different name—all happenings in | terms of place and time, all bodies which are greeted by a name. |
| W1:184.10 | not because you think it real, but only to proclaim its unreality in | terms which still have meaning in the world which darkness rules. |
| W1:192.1 | and attack? Therefore you have a function in the world in its own | terms. For who can understand a language far beyond his simple grasp? |
| M:4.25 | not include those things which are the Son of God's inheritance. | Terms like love, sinlessness, perfection, knowledge, and eternal |
| M:5.4 | as we perceive it depends on the body being the decision-maker. | Terms like “instincts,” “reflexes” and the like represent attempts to |
| M:5.4 | to endow the body with non-mental motivators. Actually, such | terms merely state or describe the problem. They do not answer it. |
| M:10.2 | “Good judgment” in these | terms does not mean anything. No more does “bad.” It is necessary for |
| M:13.2 | you have less because of it. There is no sacrifice in the world's | terms that does not involve the body. Think a while about what the |
| M:13.8 | of sacrifice, and remember what each decision you make must mean in | terms of cost. Decide for God, and everything is given you at no cost |
| M:16.2 | should the day begin with error, yet there are obvious advantages in | terms of saving time if the need for this can be avoided. |
| M:16.3 | At the beginning, it is wise to think in | terms of time. This is by no means the ultimate criterion, but at the |
| M:24.2 | the curriculum. There is always some risk in seeing the present in | terms of the past. There is always some good in any thought which |

| Tx:4.88 | all truly natural impulses, not because the ego is a separate | thing, but because you want to believe that you are. The ego is a |
| Tx:4.90 | brother is to know God. A little knowledge is an all-encompassing | thing. If you are grateful to each other, you are grateful to God for |
| Tx:5.73 | that the two voices speak for different interpretations of the same | thing simultaneously, or almost simultaneously, for the ego always |
| Tx:5.74 | interprets Scripture as a witness for itself. The Bible is a fearful | thing to the ego because of its prejudiced judgment. Perceiving it as |
| Tx:6.55 | you be but afraid? You would doubt your sanity, which is the one | thing in which you can find the sanity He gave you. |
| Tx:6.90 | must be included and that the belief that you are not is the only | thing that you must exclude. |

| Tx:7.12 | they are misguided in how [they] defend it, are siding with the one | thing in this world which is true. Whenever anyone can listen fairly |

| Tx:7.107 | Him is therefore the easiest thing in the world and the only | thing that is easy, because it is not of the world and is therefore |
| Tx:8.60 | regardless of why it is impossible, is the most depressing | thing in the world. In fact, it is ultimately why the world is |
| Tx:8.64 | is to separate. How can you do both simultaneously with the same | thing and not suffer? Perception of the body can be unified only by |
| Tx:8.69 | of everything are childish and always based on what it believes a | thing is for. This is because it is incapable of true generalizations |
| Tx:8.77 | When we said that the ego does not know anything, we said the one | thing about the ego that is wholly true. But there is a corollary; if |
| Tx:10.34 | It is difficult at first to realize that this is exactly the same | thing, for there is no distinction between within and without. |
| Tx:10.47 | What you must learn to recognize is that the last | thing the ego wishes you to realize is that you are afraid of it. For |
| Tx:11.28 | is for the mind, and it is attained through peace. This is the only | thing that can be saved and the only way to save it. Any response |
| Tx:11.55 | You do not want the world. The only | thing of value in it is whatever part of it you look upon with love. |
| Tx:11.83 | seeking the unreal, what else could you find? The unreal world is a | thing of despair, for it can never be. And you who share God's Being |
| Tx:12.33 | content of individual illusions differs greatly. Yet they have one | thing in common—they are all insane. They are made of sights which |
| Tx:12.66 | The real world is the way that leads you to remembrance of this one | thing that is wholly true and wholly yours. For all else you have |
| Tx:12.66 | else you have lent yourself in time, and it will fade. But this one | thing is always yours, being the gift of God unto His Son. Your one |
| Tx:13.11 | Guilt remains the only | thing that hides the Father, for guilt is the attack upon His Son. |
| Tx:13.17 | You are afraid of what you would see there, but it is not there. The | thing you fear is gone. If you would look within, you would see only |
| Tx:13.41 | Have faith in only this one | thing, and it will be sufficient: God wills you be in Heaven, and |
| Tx:13.55 | speck of dust, a body or a war are one to you. For if you value one | thing made of nothing, you have believed that nothing can be precious |
| Tx:14.47 | brings the laws of another world to this one. The miracle is the one | thing you can do that transcends order, being based not on |
| Tx:14.58 | Yet the essential | thing is learning that you do not know. Knowledge is power, and all |
| Tx:14.63 | and everyone around you. The absence of perfect peace means but one | thing: you think you do not will for God's Son what His Father wills |
| Tx:16.7 | “miracle” for this. We once said that if a brother asks a foolish | thing of you, to do it. But be certain that this does not mean to do |
| Tx:16.7 | to do it. But be certain that this does not mean to do a foolish | thing that would hurt either him or you, for what would hurt one will |
| Tx:16.74 | the illusion of love is not profoundly shaken. Yet the one | thing which the ego never allows to reach awareness is that the |
| Tx:17.8 | of worlds so different. Yet this little bridge is the strongest | thing that touches on this world at all. This little step, so small |
| Tx:17.12 | perception and fixed it on the past. The smallest leaf becomes a | thing of wonder and a blade of grass a sign of God's perfection. From |
| Tx:17.58 | In any situation in which you are uncertain, the first | thing to consider, very simply, is, “What do I want to come of this? |
| Tx:18.20 | you alone, for therein lay its misery. As its unholiness kept it a | thing apart, its holiness will become an offering to everyone. |
| Tx:18.27 | to be holy. The Will of God is granted you. For you desire the only | thing you ever had or ever were. |
| Tx:18.50 | Heaven and the loss of your Identity. And you have done a stranger | thing than you yet realize. You have displaced your guilt to your |
| Tx:18.54 | invest in it. How has this served you? You have identified with this | thing you hate, the instrument of vengeance and the perceived source |
| Tx:18.54 | and the perceived source of your guilt. You have done this to a | thing that has no meaning, proclaiming it to be the dwelling-place of |
| Tx:18.55 | you have sown the seeds of vengeance, violence, and death. This | thing you made to serve your guilt stands between you and other |
| Tx:18.64 | progress and are really trying to make still more, but there is one | thing you have never done—not for one instant have you utterly |
| Tx:19.51 | eyes. And in their savage search for sin, they pounce on any living | thing they see and carry it screaming to their master to be devoured. |
| Tx:19.80 | dedicated to madness and set against the peace of Heaven? One | thing is sure—God, Who created neither sin nor death, wills not |
| Tx:19.81 | to sin, offered to sin to feed upon and keep itself alive—a | thing condemned, damned by its maker, and lamented by every mourner |
| Tx:19.103 | he will give you yours as surely as God created every living | thing and loves it. And he will give it truly, for it will be both |
| Tx:20.5 | made to make seem lovely what you hate. Would you employ this hated | thing to draw your brother to you and to attract his body's eyes? |
| Tx:20.23 | Ask not this transient stranger, “What am I?” He is the only | thing in all the universe that does not know. Yet it is he you asked, |
| Tx:20.23 | it you turn to ask the meaning of the universe. And of the one blind | thing in all the seeing universe of truth you ask, “How shall I look |
| Tx:20.24 | holy relationship. Ask not the means of its attainment of the one | thing that still would have it be unholy. Give it no power to adjust |
| Tx:20.64 | the end for which it was intended, nor is it valued as a separate | thing apart from the intention. The means seem real because the goal |
| Tx:20.74 | yourself the power you gave them, you are released from them. One | thing is sure—hallucinations serve a purpose, and when that purpose |
| Tx:21.14 | This is the only | thing that you need do for vision, happiness, release from pain, and |
| Tx:22.7 | Yet if your eyes are closed and you have called upon this | thing to lead you, asking it to explain to you the world it sees, you |
| Tx:22.19 | faith in innocence is faith in sin if the belief excludes one living | thing and holds it out apart from its forgiveness. |
| Tx:23.29 | unanswered question, not yet “explained.” What is this precious | thing, this priceless pearl, this hidden secret treasure, to be |
| Tx:24.43 | is it joy to look upon decay and madness and believe this crumbling | thing, with flesh already loosened from the bone and sightless holes |
| Tx:24.45 | not complete. And so He sought for your completion in each living | thing that He beholds and loves. And seeks it still, that each might |
| Tx:25.13 | worth delaying change that might result in better outcome? For one | thing is sure—the way you see, and long have seen, gives no support |
| Tx:25.47 | of God do not prevail in perfect form, can he yet do one perfect | thing and make one perfect choice. And by this act of special |
| Tx:25.49 | and let salvation be perfectly fulfilled in both of you. Do this one | thing, that everything be given you. |
| Tx:25.50 | yourself into a blessing, then it cannot be a sin. Sin is the one | thing in all the world that cannot change. It is immutable. And on |
| Tx:26.14 | to yourself, remember this: justice is total. There is no such | thing as partial justice. If the Son of God is guilty, then is he |
| Tx:26.21 | is the same and what is different remain unclear. The one essential | thing to make a choice at all is this distinction. And herein lies |
| Tx:26.33 | it has long since gone. You think you live in what is past. Each | thing you look upon you saw but for an instant, long ago before its |
| Tx:26.54 | in your perception by a body which is clearly separate and a | thing apart. Yet what this symbol represents is but your wish to be |
| Tx:26.80 | claimed is given up to love, and freedom lights up every living | thing and lifts it into Heaven, where the lights grow ever brighter |
| Tx:26.86 | your awareness it is your own and equally belongs to every living | thing along with you. God limits not. And what is limited can not be |
| Tx:26.89 | Spirit sees. And simple justice has been thus denied to every living | thing upon the earth. |
| Tx:27.12 | do not know its purpose. You but gave illusions of a purpose to a | thing you made to hide your function from yourself. This thing |
| Tx:27.12 | to a thing you made to hide your function from yourself. This | thing without a purpose cannot hide the function that the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:27.15 | condemnation that he still would hold against himself or any living | thing. |
| Tx:27.38 | itself. A double question asks and answers, both attesting the same | thing in different form. |
| Tx:27.45 | you are afraid of healing, then it cannot come through you. The only | thing that is required for a healing is a lack of fear. The fearful |
| Tx:27.62 | something not himself. He is the victim of this “something else,” a | thing outside himself for which he has no reason to be held |
| Tx:27.68 | to thrust upon you, uninvited and unasked, must really be. Of one | thing you were sure—of all the many causes you perceived as |
| Tx:27.88 | I have done this | thing, and it is this I would undo. |
| Tx:27.89 | so. Yet to its witnesses you pay no heed at all. For they attest the | thing you do not want to know. They seem to keep it secret from you. |
| Tx:27.90 | you but to learn that both of you are innocent or guilty. The one | thing that is impossible is that you be unlike each other; that they |
| Tx:28.10 | would witness to is but the fear of God. He has not done the | thing you fear. No more have you. And so your innocence has not been |
| Tx:28.21 | What else could be expected from a | thing that has no cause? Yet if it has no cause, it has no purpose. |
| Tx:28.37 | depending on whose evil dream you share. You can be sure of just one | thing—that you are evil, for you share in dreams of fear. |
| Tx:28.49 | between illusion and the truth? A middle ground where you can be a | thing that is not you must be a dream and cannot be the truth. |
| Tx:28.55 | is indeed a senseless point of view to hold responsible for sight a | thing that cannot see and blame it for the sounds you do not like, |
| Tx:28.56 | The | thing you hate and fear and loathe and want, the body does not know. |
| Tx:28.56 | know. You send it forth to seek for separation and to be a separate | thing. And then you hate it, not for what it is, but for the uses you |
| Tx:29.11 | power to heal must also now be yours. The miracle is not a separate | thing which happens suddenly, as an effect without a cause. Nor is it |
| Tx:29.15 | the promise of the living God—His Son have life and every living | thing be part of him, and nothing else have life. What you have given |
| Tx:29.17 | Sickness is a demand the body be a | thing that it is not. Its nothingness is guarantee that it can not be |
| Tx:29.18 | its nothingness has not been recognized. And so it seems to be a | thing with power in itself. As something, it can be perceived and |
| Tx:29.19 | despair. It is His loss you celebrate when you behold the body as a | thing you love, or look upon it as a thing you hate. For if He be the |
| Tx:29.19 | when you behold the body as a thing you love, or look upon it as a | thing you hate. For if He be the sum of everything, then what is not |
| Tx:29.28 | which you have assigned, some goal which an event, or body, or a | thing should represent and should achieve for you. If it succeeds, |
| Tx:29.39 | immortal as his Father. What he is cannot be changed. He is the only | thing in all the universe that must be one. What seems eternal all |
| Tx:29.40 | unless it does not take this purpose as its own. Change is the only | thing that can be made a blessing here, where purpose is not fixed, |
| Tx:29.42 | fear, how filled with blessing and with happiness! And what a joyous | thing it is to dwell a little while in such a happy place! Nor can it |
| Tx:29.52 | is this which never is perceived and recognized. Be it a body or a | thing, a place, a situation or a circumstance, an object owned or |
| Tx:29.55 | could make demand He enter not? The “more-than-everything” is not a | thing to make you tremble and to quail in fear. Christ's enemy is |
| Tx:29.60 | you could not lose it, did He also give the same to every living | thing as well. And thus is every living thing a part of you, as of |
| Tx:29.60 | the same to every living thing as well. And thus is every living | thing a part of you, as of Himself. No idol can establish you as more |
| Tx:30.1 | it. The speed by which it can be reached depends on this one | thing alone—your willingness to practice every step. Each one will |
| Tx:30.22 | to take you further. You are not coerced but merely hope to get a | thing you want. And you can say in perfect honesty, |
| Tx:30.35 | you and through your will created everything. Not one created | thing but gives you thanks, for it is by your will that it was born. |
| Tx:30.38 | It is as if you said, “I have no need of everything. This little | thing I want, and it will be as everything to me.” And this must fail |
| Tx:30.40 | has no form because it is unlimited. To seek a special person or a | thing to add to you to make yourself complete can only mean that you |
| Tx:30.41 | not this you want. Creation gives no separate person and no separate | thing the power to complete the Son of God. What idol can be called |
| Tx:30.48 | Thought God holds of you exist but where you are? Is your reality a | thing apart from you and in a world which your reality knows nothing |
| Tx:30.51 | each one seems to break the rules you set for it. It never was the | thing you thought. It must appear to break your rules for safety, |
| Tx:30.54 | have been quickly brought about when you decide one very simple | thing—you do not want whatever you believe an idol gives. For thus |
| Tx:30.56 | the Son of God can have no need of them. They offer him no single | thing that he could ever want. He is delivered from illusions by his |
| Tx:30.84 | a fearful script and are afraid accordingly. But not because the | thing you fear has fearful meaning in itself. |
| Tx:31.9 | There is no living | thing which does not share the universal will that it be whole and |
| Tx:31.26 | a choice that will result in different outcomes, there is first one | thing that must be overlearned. It must become a habit of response so |
| Tx:31.28 | body be at fault for what it does. It is not seen to be a passive | thing, obeying your commands and doing nothing of itself at all. If |
| Tx:31.44 | Son of God. The concept of the self the world would teach is not the | thing that it appears to be. For it is made to serve two purposes, |
| Tx:31.47 | perceive the treachery it hides. The lesson teaches this: “I am the | thing you made of me, and as you look on me, you stand condemned |
| Tx:31.48 | with ceaseless urgency condemning still your brother for the hated | thing you are. |
| Tx:31.54 | There are alternatives about the | thing that you must be. You might for instance be the thing you chose |

| Tx:31.60 | I do not know the | thing I am and therefore do not know what I am doing, where I am, or |
| Tx:31.79 | not. And from that wish, a concept rises, teaching that you are the | thing you wish to be. It will remain your concept of yourself until |
| Tx:31.81 | that it is but a wish, insane and meaningless, to make yourself a | thing which you are not. And think as well upon the thing that you |

| W1:3.2 | to which the idea for the day is to be applied. For this purpose one | thing is like another—equally suitable and therefore equally useful. |
| W1:7.12 | Do not linger over any one | thing in particular, but remember to omit nothing specifically. |

| W1:12.2 | to pace yourself so that the slow shifting of your glance from one | thing to another involves a fairly constant time interval. Do not |
| W1:17.4 | Then look about you, resting your glance on each | thing that catches your eye long enough to say: |
| W1:28.2 | are not seeing at all. You either see or not. When you have seen one | thing differently, you will see all things differently. The light you |

| W1:41.7 | to reach God. In fact it is very easy because it is the most natural | thing in the world. You might even say it is the only natural thing |
| W1:41.7 | thing in the world. You might even say it is the only natural | thing in the world. The way will open if you believe that it is |
| W1:45.11 | For this kind of practice, only one | thing is necessary—approach it as you would an altar dedicated in |
| W1:97.5 | abides in Him, and Which calls through His Voice to every living | thing; offers His sight to everyone who asks; replaces error with the |
| W1:99.2 | are equal now, for both have happened. The impossible becomes the | thing you need forgiveness for, salvation from. Salvation is the |
| W1:99.5 | death, on grief and separation, and on loss. Yet does He know one | thing must still be true—God still is Love, and this is not His |
| W1:109.8 | the world is nearer waking. And the time when rest will be the only | thing there is comes closer to all worn and tired minds, too weary |
| W1:128.2 | Each | thing you value here is but a chain that binds you to the world, and |
| W1:131.4 | is inevitable here. For this you came, and you will surely do the | thing you came for. But the world cannot dictate the goal for which |
| W1:133.7 | First, if you choose a | thing that will not last forever, what you chose is valueless. A |
| W1:133.8 | Next, if you choose to take a | thing away from someone else, you will have nothing left. This is |
| W1:134.7 | Forgiveness is the only | thing that stands for truth in the illusions of the world. It sees |
| W1:134.10 | It is but lies which would condemn. In truth is innocence the only | thing there is. Forgiveness stands between illusions and the truth, |
| W1:135.6 | Yet it is not the body that can fear, nor be a | thing to fear. It has no needs but those which you assign to it. It |
| W1:136.8 | Sickness is a decision. It is not a | thing that happens to you quite unsought, which makes you weak and |
| W1:138.10 | when only one is seen as valuable, the other as a wholly worthless | thing, a but imagined source of guilt and pain? Who hesitates to make |
| W1:138.13 | I make it now and will not change my mind, because it is the only | thing I want. |

| W1:139.2 | to be sincere. The only thing that can be surely known by any living | thing is what it is. From this one point of certainty it looks on |
| W1:139.4 | as if he did not know, it merely shows he does not want to be the | thing he is. He has accepted it because he lives, has judged against |
| W1:151.5 | This | thing it speaks of and would yet defend it tells you is yourself. And |
| W1:158.1 | which you cannot lose. It was given as well to every living | thing, for by that knowledge only does it live. |
| W1:159.1 | No one can give what he has not received. To give a | thing requires first you have it in your own possession. Here the |
| W1:159.1 | But here they also separate. The world believes that to possess a | thing, it must be kept. Salvation teaches otherwise. To give is how |
| W1:161.7 | Hate is specific. There must be a | thing to be attacked. An enemy must be perceived in such a form he |
| W1:161.7 | and seen and heard and ultimately killed. When hatred rests upon a | thing, it calls for death as surely as God's Voice proclaims there is |

| W1:166.12 | Yet He reminds you still of one | thing more you had forgotten. For His touch on you has made you like |

| W1:181.9 | He feels for us becomes our own as well. This will become the only | thing we see reflected in the world and in ourselves. |
| W1:183.4 | their meaning. No temptation but becomes a nameless and unwanted | thing before God's Name. Repeat His Name and see how easily you will |
| W1:183.7 | then God's Name becomes our only thought, our only word, the only | thing that occupies our minds, the only wish we have, the only sound |
| W1:185.2 | completely changed should any two agree these words express the only | thing they want. |
| W1:186.12 | Do as His Voice directs. And if it asks a | thing of you that seems impossible, remember Who it is that asks and |
| W1:187.2 | How is this possible? For it is sure that if you give a finite | thing away, your body's eyes will not perceive it yours. Yet we have |
| W1:188.1 | home and stayed with you because it is your own. It is the only | thing you bring with you from Him Who is your Source. It shines in |
| W1:188.3 | your heart extends around the world. It pauses to caress each living | thing and leave a blessing with it which remains forever and forever. |
| W1:191.4 | can be denied? You are as God created you. All else but this one | thing is folly to believe. In this one thought is everything set |
| W1:195.6 | We thank our Father for one | thing alone—that we are separate from no living thing and therefore |
| W1:195.6 | our Father for one thing alone—that we are separate from no living | thing and therefore one with Him. And we rejoice that no exceptions |

| W1:196.9 | in terror from the deadly fear of God projection hides behind. The | thing you dread the most is your salvation. You are strong, and it is |
| W2:231.1 | —a something I have called by many names. Yet is Your Love the only | thing I seek or ever sought. For there is nothing else that I could |
| W2:240.1 | be and therefore look upon a world which is impossible. Not one | thing in this world is true. It does not matter what the form in |
| W2:290.1 | day I seek my present happiness and look on nothing else except the | thing I seek. |
| W2:294.1 | I am a Son of God. And can I be another | thing as well? Did God create the mortal and corruptible? What use |
| W2:294.1 | What use has God's beloved Son for what must die? And yet a neutral | thing does not see death, for thoughts of fear are not invested |
| W2:311.1 | what it is being used against and sets it off as if it were a | thing apart. And then it makes of it what you would have it be. It |
| W2:318.1 | the sinlessness which God has placed in me. I was created as the | thing I seek. I am the goal the world is searching for. I am God's |
| W2:325.1 | idea of what I want. From there, the mind makes up an image of the | thing the mind desires, judges valuable, and therefore seeks to find. |

| Tx:8.81 | Wrong perception is distorted willing, which wants | things to be as they are not. The reality of everything is totally |

| Tx:8.95 | Divided wills do not communicate because they speak for different | things to the same mind. This loses the ability to communicate simply |

| Tx:11.83 | remains irresistible. For it is the function of love to unite all | things unto itself, and to hold all things together by extending its |
| Tx:11.83 | function of love to unite all things unto itself, and to hold all | things together by extending its wholeness. |
| Tx:12.50 | Look lovingly upon the present, for it holds the only | things that are forever true. All healing lies within it because its |
| Tx:12.59 | separate. There are no stores where people buy an endless list of | things they do not need. It is not lit with artificial light, and |
| Tx:12.68 | so, for what could you need in eternity? In your world you do need | things because it is a world of scarcity in which you find yourself |
| Tx:12.68 | is a dangerous concept if it is left to you. The ego wants to have | things for salvation, for possession is its law. Possession for its |
| Tx:12.68 | builds unto itself. And at its altar it demands you lay all of the | things it bids you get, leaving you no joy in them. |
| Tx:12.70 | Only the Holy Spirit knows what you need. For He will give you all | things that do not block the way to light. And what else could you |
| Tx:12.70 | to light. And what else could you need? In time He gives you all the | things that you need have and will renew them as long as you have |
| Tx:12.70 | of them have been fulfilled. Therefore He has no investment in the | things that He supplies except to make certain that you will not use |
| Tx:13.81 | How gracious is it to decide all | things through Him Whose equal love is given equally to all alike! He |

| Tx:19.77 | with death. Made by the ego, its dark shadow falls across all living | things because the ego is the “enemy” of life. |
| Tx:19.96 | and you will nevermore believe that you are at the mercy of | things beyond you, forces you cannot control, and thoughts that come |
| Tx:20.5 | upon the body or to cover it or for its use. See all the useless | things made for its eyes to see. Think on the many offerings made for |
| Tx:20.28 | this world sees them—sickness and death and misery and pain. These | things have not occurred because the Holy Spirit sees them not and |
| Tx:20.57 | has meaning. It is as like your real relationship with God as equal | things are like unto each other. Idolatry is past and meaningless. |
| Tx:20.73 | play the idle game of death in your imagination. But vision sets all | things right, bringing them gently within the kindly sway of Heaven's |
| Tx:21.20 | salvation. All that the ego is, is an idea that it is possible that | things should happen to the Son of God without his will and thus |
| Tx:21.49 | laws of size and shape and brightness would hold, perhaps, if other | things were equal. They are not equal. For what you look for, you are |
| Tx:21.61 | accepting reason where madness was. Madness and reason see the same | things, but it is certain that they look upon them differently. |
| Tx:21.76 | are all the same. We said this year would emphasize the sameness of | things that are the same. This final question, which is indeed the |
| Tx:22.10 | makes and what he hears are highly unreliable, meaning different | things to him at different times. Neither the sounds he hears nor |
| Tx:23.27 | not give willingly to one another, nor would they seek to share the | things they value. And what your enemies would keep from you must be |
| Tx:24.46 | them, holding out His hand that everyone may bless all living | things and see their holiness. And He rejoices that these sights are |
| Tx:24.46 | lack of specialness He offers you that you may save all living | things from death, receiving from each one the gift of life that your |
| Tx:25.10 | so split could never be the teacher of a Oneness which unites all | things within itself. And so What is within this mind and does unite |
| Tx:25.10 | within itself. And so What is within this mind and does unite all | things together must be its Teacher. Yet must It use the language |
| Tx:26.24 | and to make them different. [How simple is the choice between two | things so clearly unalike.] There is no conflict here. No sacrifice |
| Tx:26.56 | What can remain unhealed and broken from a Unity Which holds all | things within Itself? There is no sin. And every miracle is possible |
| Tx:27.18 | Thus does the miracle undo all | things the world attests can never be undone. And hopelessness and |
| Tx:27.36 | In quietness are all | things answered and is every problem quietly resolved. In conflict |
| Tx:27.70 | the choice is really given you, then you must see the causes of the | things you choose between exactly as they are and where they are. |
| Tx:27.77 | is its guiding rule. It tries to look for pleasure and avoid the | things that would be hurtful. Above all, it tries to teach itself its |
| Tx:27.78 | body seeks in many ways to prove it is autonomous and real. It puts | things on itself which it has bought with little metal discs or paper |
| Tx:27.78 | as valuable and good. It works to get them, doing senseless | things, and tosses them away for senseless things it does not need |
| Tx:27.78 | get them, doing senseless things, and tosses them away for senseless | things it does not need and does not even want. It hires other |
| Tx:27.78 | other bodies, that they may protect it, and collect more senseless | things that it can call its own. It looks about for special bodies |
| Tx:27.83 | confined within a body, which it punishes because of all the sinful | things the body does within its dream. You have no power to make the |
| Tx:28.2 | take the place of what God gave in your creation. And like all the | things you made, it can be used to serve another purpose and to be |
| Tx:28.3 | unselective memory, which is not used to interfere with truth. All | things the Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been given Him, |
| Tx:28.25 | neutral, and the bodies which still seem to move about as separate | things need not be feared. And so they are not sick. |
| Tx:28.30 | coming with illusions, for it is His coming that you want above all | things that seem to glisten in the dream. |
| Tx:29.16 | earth it has a double purpose, for it can be made to teach opposing | things. And they reflect the teacher who is teaching them. The body |
| Tx:29.21 | him, without the wall the world has built to keep apart all living | things who know not that they live. Within the dream of bodies and of |
| Tx:29.39 | The stars will disappear, and night and day will be no more. All | things that come and go, the tides, the seasons, and the lives of |
| Tx:29.39 | that come and go, the tides, the seasons, and the lives of men; all | things that change with time and bloom and fade will not return. |
| Tx:29.39 | will not change him. Yet time waits upon forgiveness that the | things of time may disappear because they have no use. |
| Tx:29.57 | the changeless change, the peace of God, forever given to all living | things, give way to chaos, and the Son of God, as perfect, sinless |
| Tx:29.58 | endless, has no place to be. An idol is beyond where God has set all | things forever and has left no room for anything to be except His |
| Tx:29.66 | a child, who does not know what hurts and what will heal. And bad | things seem to happen, and he is afraid of all the chaos in a world |
| Tx:29.67 | what it sees. No one is used for something he is not, for childish | things have all been put away. And what was once a dream of judgment |
| Tx:30.7 | again the kind of day you want, the feelings you would have, the | things you want to happen to you, and the things you would experience |
| Tx:30.7 | you would have, the things you want to happen to you, and the | things you would experience and say, |
| Tx:30.31 | want before it can occur. It is but this agreement which permits all | things to happen. Nothing can be caused without some form of union, |
| Tx:30.39 | shares in all creation cannot be content with small ideas and little | things. |
| Tx:30.49 | arose between yourself and what is true. And you attack them for the | things you think they represent. What lies beyond them cannot be |
| Tx:30.52 | for them. Their dancing never brought you joy. But neither were they | things to frighten you nor make you safe if they obeyed your rules. |
| Tx:30.53 | no real effects at all? What could it be but an illusion, making | things appear like to itself? Look calmly at its toys and understand |
| Tx:30.55 | it be except a happy dream? It asks you but that you forgive all | things that no one ever did, to overlook what is not there, and not |
| Tx:30.55 | are but asked to let your will be done and seek no longer for the | things you do not want. And you are asked to let yourself be free of |
| Tx:30.57 | into the dream of fear. Instead, there is a wish to understand all | things created as they really are. And it is recognized that all |
| Tx:30.57 | all things created as they really are. And it is recognized that all | things must be first forgiven, and then understood. |
| Tx:30.58 | by its vain appeal, for suffering and death have been perceived as | things not wanted and not striven for. The possibility of freedom has |
| Tx:30.86 | Escape from judgment simply lies in this—all | things have but one purpose which you share with all the world. And |
| Tx:30.87 | be established while the symbols which are used mean different | things? The Holy Spirit's goal gives one interpretation, meaningful |
| Tx:30.93 | Because reality is changeless is a miracle already there to heal all | things that change and offer them to you to see in happy form, devoid |
| Tx:31.1 | become confused. Why then do you persist in learning not such simple | things? |
| Tx:31.2 | There is a reason. But confuse it not with difficulty in the simple | things salvation asks you learn. It teaches but the very obvious. It |
| Tx:31.4 | the Son of God is guilty, say not that you cannot learn the simple | things salvation teaches you! |
| Tx:31.12 | Let us be still an instant and forget all | things we ever learned, all thoughts we had, and every preconception |
| Tx:31.12 | all thoughts we had, and every preconception which we hold of what | things mean and what their purpose is. Let us remember not our own |
| Tx:31.22 | without your opposition or intent. There will be no attack upon the | things you thought were precious and in need of care. There will be |
| Tx:31.45 | aspect never makes the first attack. But every day a hundred little | things make small assaults upon its innocence, provoking it to |
| Tx:31.48 | You can be neither blamed for what you are, nor can you change the | things it makes you do. And you are each the symbol of your sins to |
| Tx:31.51 | have made the world as well as you to have such prescience in the | things to come. |
| Tx:31.57 | you perceive a self which interacts with evil and reacts to wicked | things? Your concept of yourself will still remain quite meaningless. |
| Tx:31.63 | choose to see the body, you behold a world of separation, unrelated | things, and happenings that make no sense at all. This one appears |
| Tx:31.74 | silent barricade before the truth, and hides it from your sight. All | things you see are images because you look on them as through a |
| W1:I.4 | as possible. Be sure that you do not decide that there are some | things you see to which the idea for the day is inapplicable. The aim |
| W1:1.5 | in any order, and make no allowance for differences in the kinds of | things to which they are applied. That is the purpose of the |
| W1:2.1 | this idea are the same as those for the first one. Begin with the | things that are near you, and apply the idea to whatever your glance |
| W1:3.1 | in judgment. Anything is suitable if you see it. Some of the | things you see may have emotionally-charged meaning for you. Try to |
| W1:3.1 | for you. Try to lay such feelings aside, and merely use these | things exactly as you would anything else. |
| W1:3.2 | is to help you clear your mind of all past associations, to see | things exactly as they appear to you now, and to realize how little |
| W1:3.2 | keep a perfectly open mind, unhampered by judgment, in selecting the | things to which the idea for the day is to be applied. For this |
| W1:4.4 | This thought about _____ does not mean anything. It is like the | things I see in this room [or wherever you are]. |
| W1:7.5 | why your thoughts do not mean anything and why they are like the | things you see. |
| W1:9.5 | Begin with | things that are nearest you, and then extend the range: |
| W1:10.2 | instead of “These thoughts” and no link is made overtly with the | things around you. The emphasis is now on the lack of reality of what |
| W1:14.7 | your personal repertory of horrors at which you are looking. These | things are part of the world you see. Some of them are shared |
| W1:15.7 | you will obviously not be able to apply the idea to very many | things during the minute or so of practice that is recommended, try |
| W1:17.1 | cause and effect as it really operates. You see no neutral | things because you have no neutral thoughts. It is always the thought |
| W1:17.3 | I see no neutral | things because I have no neutral thoughts. |
| W1:28.2 | by itself? And what does “in itself” mean? You see a lot of separate | things about you, which really means you are not seeing at all. You |
| W1:28.2 | or not. When you have seen one thing differently, you will see all | things differently. The light you will see in any one of them is the |
| W1:29.3 | Try then today to begin to learn how to look on all | things with love, appreciation, and open-mindedness. You do not see |
| W1:30.4 | “far.” To help you begin to get used to this idea, try to think of | things beyond your present range as well as those you can actually |
| W1:35.10 | nothing specific occurs to you. Do not strain to think up specific | things to fill the interval, but merely relax and repeat today's idea |
| W1:37.3 | but merely by your quiet recognition that in your holiness are all | things blessed, along with you. |
| W1:38.2 | you are holy, so is everything God created. You are holy because all | things He created are holy. And all things He created are holy |
| W1:38.2 | You are holy because all things He created are holy. And all | things He created are holy because you are. |
| W1:38.8 | to begin to instill in you a sense that you have dominion over all | things because of what you are. |
| W1:40.1 | Today we will begin to assert some of the happy | things to which you are entitled, being what you are. No long |
| W1:41.2 | and fear and loss because it will heal the mind that thought these | things were real and suffered out of its allegiance to them. |
| W1:41.6 | thoughts of the world. You are trying to reach past all these | things. You are trying to leave appearances and approach reality. |
| W1:47.2 | Of yourself, you can do none of these | things. To believe that you can is to put your trust where trust is |
| W1:47.6 | gain confidence. But the strength of God in you is successful in all | things. |
| W1:47.8 | feel a sense of deep peace, however briefly. Let go all the trivial | things that churn and bubble on the surface of your mind, and reach |
| W1:50.1 | forms of nothingness which you endow with magical powers. All these | things are your replacements for the Love of God. All these things |
| W1:50.1 | these things are your replacements for the Love of God. All these | things are cherished to ensure a body identification. They are songs |
| W1:51.6 | “my” thoughts. I am constantly trying to make them true. I make all | things my “enemies” so that my anger is justified and my attacks are |
| W1:54.3 | [17] I see no neutral | things. What I see witnesses to what I think. If I did not think, I |
| W1:55.2 | [21] I am determined to see | things differently. What I see now are but signs of disease, |
| W1:55.2 | what God created for His beloved Son. The very fact that I see such | things is proof that I do not understand God. Therefore I also do not |
| W1:57.6 | had kept hidden. I begin to understand the holiness of all living | things including myself, and their oneness with me. |
| W1:58.6 | to all good and only good. I am blessed as a Son of God. All good | things are mine because God intended them for me. I cannot suffer any |
| W1:58.6 | who I am. My Father supports me, protects me, and directs me in all | things. His care for me is infinite and is with me forever. I am |
| W1:60.3 | I begin to see, I recognize His reflection on earth. I forgive all | things because I feel the stirring of His strength in me. And I begin |
| W1:70.11 | My salvation cannot come from any of these | things. My salvation comes from me, and only from me. |
| W1:71.4 | there are still grounds for hope in other places and in other | things. Another person will yet serve better; another situation will |
| W1:71.8 | to what seems to be a conflict with no resolution possible. All | things are possible to God. Salvation must be yours because of His |
| W1:72.3 | attack on God's plan for salvation. But let us consider the kinds of | things which you are apt to hold grievances for. Are they not always |
| W1:76.1 | We have observed before how many senseless | things have seemed to you to be salvation. Each has imprisoned you |
| W1:76.1 | realize salvation lies not there. While you would seek for it in | things that have no meaning, you bind yourself to laws that make no |
| W1:76.4 | It is insanity that thinks these | things. You call them laws and put them under different names in a |
| W1:83.5 | [66] My happiness and my function are one. All | things that come from God are one. They come from Oneness and must be |
| W1:86.2 | about for salvation. I have seen it in many people and in many | things, but when I reached for it, it was not there. I was mistaken |
| W1:87.2 | my will to grope about in darkness, fearful of shadows and afraid of | things unseen and unreal. Light shall be my guide today. I will |
| W1:92.4 | Strength overlooks these | things by seeing past appearances. It keeps its steady gaze upon the |
| W1:96.15 | in strength, it will again flow out from Spirit to the Spirit in all | things created by the Spirit as Itself. Your mind will bless all |
| W1:96.15 | all things created by the Spirit as Itself. Your mind will bless all | things. Confusion done, you are restored, for you have found your |
| W1:99.12 | Think of these | things in practicing today, and start your longer practice periods |
| W1:106.3 | Hear them not. Be still today, and listen to the truth. Go past all | things which do not speak of Him Who holds your happiness within His |
| W1:R3.9 | to practice only at appointed times and then go on your way to other | things without applying what you learned to them. As a result, you |
| W1:R3.11 | to rest a little time in silence and in peace. Then turn to other | things, but try to keep the thought with you and let it serve to help |
| W1:119.3 | [108] To give and to receive are one in truth. I will forgive all | things today, that I may learn how to accept the truth in me and come |
| W1:122.12 | waiting for today. Forgiveness offers everything you want. Today all | things you want are given you. |
| W1:127.2 | remain itself although it is withheld from others. To believe these | things of love is not to understand it. If it could make such |
| W1:128.3 | what you value you make part of you as you perceive yourself. All | things you seek to make your value greater in your sight limit you |
| W1:129.2 | and pitiless with hate. It gives but to rescind and takes away all | things that you have cherished for a while. No lasting love is found, |
| W1:129.2 | is found, for none is here. This is the world of time, where all | things end. |
| W1:129.3 | cannot exist, and vengeance has no meaning? Is it loss to find all | things you really want and know they have no ending, and they will |
| W1:129.5 | that comes to take its place as you unbind your mind from little | things the world sets forth to keep you prisoner there. Value them |
| W1:129.6 | It waits but for your choosing it to take the place of all the | things you seek but do not want. |
| W1:131.16 | standing in a light so bright and clear that you can understand all | things you see. A tiny moment of surprise, perhaps, will make you |
| W1:132.9 | if it is indeed your own imagining, then you can loose it from all | things you ever thought it was by merely changing all the thoughts |
| W1:132.15 | all the idle thoughts we ever held about it and about all living | things we see upon it. They cannot be there—no more than we. For we |
| W1:133.2 | too little. When you let your mind be drawn to bodily concerns, to | things you buy, to eminence as valued by the world, you ask for |
| W1:133.3 | in the world. Today we list the real criteria by which to test all | things you think you want. Unless they meet these sound requirements, |
| W1:133.8 | you have denied your own. You therefore will not recognize the | things you really have, denying they are there. Who seeks to take |
| W1:133.13 | All | things are valuable or valueless, worthy or not of being sought at |
| W1:134.17 | save the world from all ideas of sin. Briefly consider all the evil | things you thought of him, and each time ask yourself “Would I |
| W1:135.28 | your Eastertime with you. Throughout the day, as foolish little | things appear to raise defensiveness in you and tempt you to engage |
| W1:138.1 | believe there are alternatives to choose between. We think that all | things have an opposite, and what we want we choose. If Heaven |
| W1:139.2 | is what it is. From this one point of certainty it looks on other | things as certain as itself. Uncertainty about what you must be is |
| W1:152.6 | You but accuse Him of insanity, to think He made a world where such | things seem to have reality. He is not mad. Yet only madness makes a |
| W1:152.7 | over life—all this is arrogance. Humility would see at once these | things are not of Him. And can you see what God created not? To think |
| W1:155.11 | When dreams are over, time has closed the door on all the | things that pass, and miracles are purposeless, the holy Son of God |
| W1:156.4 | Presence is so holy that the world is sanctified because of you. All | things that live bring gifts to you and offer them in gratitude and |
| W1:156.5 | The Light in you is what the universe longs to behold. All living | things are still before you, for they recognize Who walks with you. |
| W1:156.5 | itself Which walks with you, transforming in Its gentle Light all | things into Its likeness and Its purity. |
| W1:159.5 | to carry you from this world into one made holy by forgiveness. | Things which seem quite solid here are merely shadows there, |
| W1:160.5 | is he exiled of necessity, not knowing who he is, uncertain of all | things but this—that he is not himself and that his home has been |
| W1:162.1 | gave in answer to the world you made. By them it disappears, and all | things seen within its misty clouds and vaporous illusions vanish as |
| W1:163.2 | the thought of death seem mighty. For it seems to hold all living | things within its withered hand; all hopes and wishes in its |
| W1:163.3 | All | things but death are seen to be unsure, too quickly lost however hard |
| W1:163.6 | while still believing in the rest. For death is total. Either all | things die or else they live and cannot die. No compromise is |
| W1:163.9 | have placed us, in the Life we share with You and with all living | things, to be like You and part of You forever. We accept Your |
| W1:164.4 | will bring rewards so great and so completely different from all | things you sought before that you will know that here your treasure |
| W1:164.6 | is sacred to the world. Your vision, given you from far beyond all | things within the world, looks back on them in a new light. And what |
| W1:164.8 | own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go all | things you think you want. Your trifling treasures put away and leave |
| W1:166.1 | All | things are given you. God's trust in you is limitless. He knows His |
| W1:167.6 | mind does not exist because it has no source. For mind creates all | things that are and cannot give them attributes it lacks nor change |
| W1:169.3 | shut tight against God's Voice. It has become aware that there are | things it does not know and thus is ready to accept a state |
| W1:169.5 | is simply the idea God is. And in His Being, He encompasses all | things. No mind holds anything but Him. We say “God is,” and then we |
| W1:169.9 | understood. Now we have work to do, for those in time can speak of | things beyond and listen to words which explain what is to come is |
| W1:171.2 | [151] All | things are echoes of the Voice of God. God is but Love, and therefore |
| W1:183.5 | Self, Whose Name is His. Repeat His Name and all the tiny, nameless | things on earth slip into right perspective. Those who call upon the |
| W1:183.11 | is giving still, and will forever give. He calls on Him to let all | things he thought he made be nameless now, and in their place the |
| W1:183.12 | All little | things are silent. Little sounds are soundless now. The little things |
| W1:183.12 | things are silent. Little sounds are soundless now. The little | things of earth have disappeared. The universe consists of nothing |
| W1:184.1 | this you designate its special attributes and set it off from other | things by emphasizing space surrounding it. This space you lay |
| W1:184.1 | by emphasizing space surrounding it. This space you lay between all | things to which you give a different name—all happenings in terms |
| W1:184.2 | This space you see as setting off all | things from one another is the means by which the world's perception |
| W1:184.2 | and see as well nothing where there is unity—a space between all | things, between all things and you. Thus do you think that you have |
| W1:184.2 | where there is unity—a space between all things, between all | things and you. Thus do you think that you have given life in |
| W1:184.3 | names by which the world becomes a series of discrete events, of | things un-unified, of bodies kept apart and holding bits of mind as |
| W1:184.3 | perception as you wished to have perception be. The nameless | things were given names and thus reality was given them as well. For |
| W1:184.4 | the given truth. Its enemy is wholeness. It conceives of little | things and looks upon them. And a lack of space, a sense of unity or |
| W1:184.10 | Word, the Name Which God has given you; the One Identity Which all | things share; the one acknowledgment of what is true. And then step |
| W1:184.11 | has One Name, One Meaning, and a single Source Which unifies all | things within Itself. Use all the names the world bestows on them but |
| W1:184.12 | God has no name. And yet His Name becomes the final lesson that all | things are one, and at this single lesson learning ends. All names |
| W1:184.15 | Father, our Name is Yours. In It we are united with all living | things and You Who are their One Creator. What we made and call by |
| W1:185.10 | really want and join your own intent with what they seek above all | things, perhaps unknown to them, but sure to you. You have been weak |
| W1:186.12 | likely to be right? The Voice that speaks for the Creator of all | things Who knows all things exactly as they are, or a distorted image |
| W1:186.12 | The Voice that speaks for the Creator of all things Who knows all | things exactly as they are, or a distorted image of yourself, |
| W1:187.2 | body's eyes will not perceive it yours. Yet we have learned that | things but represent the thoughts that make them. And you do not lack |
| W1:187.4 | Protect all | things you value by the act of giving them away, and you are sure |
| W1:187.4 | keep it safe. No form endures. It is the thought behind the form of | things that lives unchangeable. |
| W1:188.5 | in him. The peace of God is shining in you now and in all living | things. In quietness is it acknowledged universally. For what your |
| W1:188.6 | know the way. For honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly | things outside yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself. |
| W1:188.7 | and shadows. They remind you that you are the co-creator of all | things that live. For as the peace of God is shining in you, it must |
| W1:188.9 | that the peace of God still shines in us and from us to all living | things that share our life. We will forgive them all, absolving all |
| W1:188.10 | The peace of God is shining in me now. Let all | things shine upon me in that peace, and let me bless them with the |
| W1:190.5 | or weak or frail. But it is you who have the power to dominate all | things you see by merely recognizing what you are. As you perceive |
| W1:190.6 | and keep it as a hospital for pain, a sickly place where living | things must come at last to die? |
| W1:190.9 | without defense into the quiet place where Heaven's peace holds all | things still at last. Lay down all thoughts of danger and of fear. |
| W1:192.4 | Forgiveness gently looks upon all | things unknown in Heaven, sees them disappear, and leaves the world a |
| W1:193.13 | All | things are lessons God would have you learn. He would not leave an |
| W1:193.15 | linger here no more. And as we practice, let us think about all | things we saved to settle by ourselves and kept apart from healing. |
| W1:194.6 | your learning to the world. And as you learn to see salvation in all | things, so will the world perceive that it is saved. |
| W1:195.4 | is joined to love. We offer thanks to God our Father that in us all | things will find their freedom. It will never be that some are loosed |
| W1:195.8 | we forgive without comparing. Thus we cannot choose to overlook some | things and yet retain some other things still locked away as sins. |
| W1:195.8 | we cannot choose to overlook some things and yet retain some other | things still locked away as sins. When your forgiveness is complete, |
| W1:196.2 | at first you will not understand how mercy, limitless and with all | things held in its sure protection, can be found in the idea we |
| W1:197.8 | to you, the holy Son of God, for as you were created you contain all | things within your Self. And you are still as God created you. Nor |
| W1:213.1 | [193] All | things are lessons God would have me learn. A lesson is a miracle |
| W2:I.10 | call His Name. Instead of judging, we need but be still and let all | things be healed. We will accept the way God's plan will end, as we |
| W2:WF.3 | An unforgiving thought does many | things. In frantic action, it pursues its goal, twisting and |
| W2:232.2 | the end of fear. Have faith in Him Who is your Father. Trust all | things to Him. Let Him reveal all things to you, and be you |
| W2:232.2 | Him Who is your Father. Trust all things to Him. Let Him reveal all | things to you, and be you undismayed because you are His Son. |
| W2:235.1 | I need but look upon all | things that seem to hurt me and with perfect certainty assure myself, |
| W2:WIS.3 | Sin is the home of all illusions, which but stand for | things imagined, issuing from thoughts which are untrue. They are the |
| W2:251.1 | I sought for many | things and found despair. Now do I seek but one, for in that one is |
| W2:252.1 | looked upon. Its love is limitless, with an intensity that holds all | things within it in the calm of quiet certainty. Its strength comes |
| W2:264.1 | in the place I see myself, and everywhere I go. You are in all the | things I look upon, the sounds I hear, and every hand that reaches |
| W2:264.1 | stands beyond Your one creation or without the Love Which holds all | things within Itself. Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to |
| W2:268.1 | in Love will I remain forever. What can frighten me when I let all | things be exactly as they are? |
| W2:WIC.4 | and peace has come to every Son of God, what could remain to keep | things separate, for what remains to see except Christ's face? |
| W2:274.1 | Father, today I would let all | things be as You created them and give Your Son the honor due his |
| W2:275.1 | and understand. Join me in hearing. For the Voice of God tells us of | things we cannot understand alone, nor learn apart. It is in this |
| W2:275.1 | we cannot understand alone, nor learn apart. It is in this that all | things are protected. And in this the healing of the Voice of God is |
| W2:275.2 | Your healing Voice protects all | things today, and so I leave all things to You. I need be anxious |
| W2:275.2 | Your healing Voice protects all things today, and so I leave all | things to You. I need be anxious over nothing. For Your Voice will |
| W2:275.2 | The safety that I bring is given me. Father, Your Voice protects all | things through me. |
| W2:278.1 | If I accept that I am prisoner within a body in a world in which all | things that seem to live appear to die, then is my Father prisoner |
| W2:283.2 | and everything created part of us. And so we offer blessing to all | things, uniting lovingly with all the world, which our forgiveness |
| W2:285.1 | Today I wake with joy, expecting but the happy | things of God to come to me. I ask but them to come and realize my |
| W2:285.1 | to which they have been sent by me. And I will ask for only joyous | things the instant I accept my holiness. For what would be the use of |
| W2:286.1 | Father, how still today! How quietly do all | things fall in place! This is the day that has been chosen as the |
| W2:291.1 | Christ's vision looks through me today. His sight shows me all | things forgiven and at peace and offers this same vision to the |
| W2:295.2 | of Christ today and thus allow the Holy Spirit's love to bless all | things that I may look upon, that His forgiving love may rest on me. |
| W2:299.2 | its light. It stands forever perfect and untouched. In it are all | things healed, for they remain as You created them. And I can know my |
| W2:WISC.1 | illusion's place, the willingness to let forgiveness rest upon all | things without exception and without reserve. |
| W2:WISC.2 | hold you safe within its gentle advent, which encompasses all living | things with you. There is no end to the release the Second Coming |
| W2:303.2 | is but what I really am in truth. He is the Son You love above all | things. He is my Self as You created me. It is not Christ that can be |
| W2:313.1 | Father, there is a vision which beholds all | things as sinless, so that fear has gone and where it was is love |
| W2:315.1 | I am blessed with gifts throughout the day, in value far beyond all | things of which I can conceive. A brother smiles upon another, and my |
| W2:320.2 | Your Will can do all | things in me and then extend to all the world as well through me. |
| W2:328.1 | What seems to be the second place is first, for all | things we perceive are upside-down until we listen to the Voice of |
| W2:330.1 | today that He be our Identity and thus escape forever from all | things the dream of fear appears to offer us. |
| W2:337.1 | Atonement for myself and nothing more. God has already done all | things that need be done. And I must learn I need do nothing of |
| W2:338.1 | endanger him. He has no enemies, and he is safe from all external | things. His thoughts can frighten him, but since these thoughts |
| W2:339.1 | receive what he requests. But he can be confused indeed about the | things he wants, the state he would attain. What can he then request |
| W2:342.1 | in and be at home. Let me not wait again today. Let me forgive all | things, and let creation be as You would have it be and as it is. Let |
| W2:343.1 | impossible for me as well as You. I too must give, and so all | things are given unto me forever and forever. As I was created, I |
| W2:346.1 | Father, I wake today with miracles correcting my perception of all | things. And so begins the day I share with You as I will share |
| W2:346.1 | share eternity, for time has stepped aside today. I do not seek the | things of time, and so I will not look upon them. What I seek today |
| W2:346.1 | look upon them. What I seek today transcends all laws of time and | things perceived in time. I would forget all things except Your Love. |
| W2:346.1 | all laws of time and things perceived in time. I would forget all | things except Your Love. I would abide in You and know no laws except |
| W2:346.2 | God. For we will learn today what peace is ours when we forget all | things except God's Love. |
| W2:349.1 | So would I liberate all | things I see and give to them the freedom that I seek. For thus do I |
| W2:350.1 | part of us as we perceive ourselves. The Son of God incorporates all | things within himself as You created him. Your memory depends on his |
| W2:WAI.3 | therefore given us. We look on everyone as brothers and perceive all | things as kindly and as good. We do not seek a function that is past |
| W2:359.1 | Your world and let creation be Your own. We have misunderstood all | things. But we have not made sinners of the holy Sons of God. What |
| W2:E.6 | and say “Amen.” In peace we will continue in His way and trust all | things to Him. In confidence we wait His answers, as we ask His Will |
| M:1.4 | with its illusions of change and death, wears out the world and all | things in it. Yet time has an ending, and it is this that the |
| M:4.3 | Which is in them but not of them. It is this Power that keeps all | things safe. It is through this Power that the teachers of God look |
| M:4.5 | not be painful, but it usually is so experienced. It seems as if | things are being taken away, and it is rarely understood initially |
| M:4.5 | be perceived unless the perceiver is in a position where he must see | things in a different light? He is not yet at a point at which he can |
| M:4.6 | the changes in his life are always helpful, he must now decide all | things on the basis of whether they increase the helpfulness or |
| M:4.6 | helpfulness or hamper it. He will find that many if not most of the | things he valued before will merely hinder his ability to transfer |
| M:4.6 | loss and sacrifice. It takes great learning to understand that all | things, events, encounters, and circumstances are helpful. It is only |
| M:4.12 | impossible. Therefore they can only succeed. In this, as in all | things, they are honest. They can only succeed because they never do |
| M:4.12 | will alone. They choose for all mankind, for all the world and all | things in it, for the unchanging and unchangeable beyond appearances, |
| M:4.13 | this be lost, and all his learning goes. Without judgment are all | things equally acceptable, for who could judge otherwise? Without |
| M:4.16 | gifts and follow in His way because God's Voice directs them in all | things. Joy is their song of thanks. And Christ looks down on them in |
| M:4.19 | he ensure himself pain? But he does want to keep for himself all | things that are of God and therefore for His Son. These are the |
| M:4.19 | all things that are of God and therefore for His Son. These are the | things that belong to him. These he can give away in true generosity, |
| M:4.20 | to those who trust. Sure of the ultimate interpretation of all | things in time, no outcome already seen or yet to come can cause them |
| M:4.21 | is the teacher of God's trust in the word of God to set all | things right—not some but all. Generally, his faithfulness begins |
| M:4.24 | How do the open-minded forgive? They have let go all | things that would prevent forgiveness. They have in truth abandoned |
| M:4.24 | now which seemed so dull and lifeless before. And above all are all | things welcoming, for threat is gone. No clouds remain to hide the |
| M:4.25 | that the list of attributes of God's teachers does not include those | things which are the Son of God's inheritance. Terms like love, |
| M:10.3 | one would have to be fully aware of an inconceivably wide range of | things, past, present, and to come. One would have to recognize in |
| M:10.6 | of death—all these have come of it. And now he knows that these | things need not be. Not one is true. For he has given up their cause, |
| M:11.1 | peace seems to be impossible. Yet the Word of God promises other | things that seem impossible, as well as this. His Word has promised |
| M:11.2 | or the Word of God is more likely to be true. For they say different | things about the world, and things so opposite that it is pointless |
| M:11.2 | to be true. For they say different things about the world, and | things so opposite that it is pointless to try to reconcile them. God |

| M:13.2 | fame, money, physical pleasure—who is the hero to whom all these | things belong? Could they mean anything except to a body? Yet a body |
| M:13.2 | except to a body? Yet a body cannot evaluate. By seeking after such | things, the mind associates itself with the body, obscuring its |
| M:13.3 | identity, and no one doubts what he believes he is. He can doubt all | things but never this. |

| M:14.2 | to Him in silence to receive His Word. The world will end when all | things in it have been rightly judged by His judgment. The world will |

| M:21.2 | things. It always requests some kind of experience, the specific | things asked for being the bringers of the desired experience in the |

| Tx:2.42 | The Atonement is a total commitment. You still | think this is associated with loss. This is the same mistake all the |
| Tx:2.73 | that you are responsible for what you do but not for what you | think. The truth is that you are responsible for what you think |
| Tx:2.73 | what you think. The truth is that you are responsible for what you | think because it is only at this level that you can exercise choice. |
| Tx:2.74 | What you do comes from what you | think. You cannot separate yourself from the truth by “giving” |
| Tx:2.74 | This is controlled by me automatically as soon as you place what you | think under my guidance. Whenever you are afraid, it is a sure sign |

| Tx:2.88 | you say, “Don't give it a thought,” you imply that if you do not | think about something, it will have no effect on you. And this is |
| Tx:2.89 | You do not expect to grow when you say it, because you do not really | think that you will. |
| Tx:2.90 | They even try to “free” the patient by persuading him that he can | think whatever he wants without any real effect at all. |

| Tx:4.12 | anxiety. I will teach with you and live with you if you will | think with me, but my goal will always be to absolve you finally from |
| Tx:4.14 | to set your learning limits for you. Once again—nothing you do or | think or wish or make is necessary to establish your worth. This |
| Tx:4.57 | and are perceiving images your ego makes in a darkened glass. | Think honestly what you have thought that God would not have thought |
| Tx:4.57 | have thought and what you have not thought that God would have you | think. Search sincerely for what you have done and left undone |
| Tx:4.57 | have done and left undone accordingly, and then change your minds to | think with God's. |
| Tx:4.58 | This may seem hard to you, but it is much easier than trying to | think against it. Your mind is one with God's. Denying this and |
| Tx:4.64 | your ego away and releasing the strength of God into everything you | think and will and do. Do not settle for anything less than this, and |
| Tx:4.66 | and I have called you to join with me in the second. If you will | think over your lives, you will see how carefully the preparations |
| Tx:4.105 | and that of others if in a situation calling for healing you | think of it this way: |
| Tx:5.1 | To heal is to make happy. I have told you before to | think how many opportunities you have to gladden yourselves and how |
| Tx:5.6 | If you | think about it, you will see that, while this kind of thinking is |
| Tx:5.9 | It is the blessing of miracle-mindedness. It asks that you may | think as I thought, joining with me in Christ-thinking. |
| Tx:5.30 | to the Holy Spirit, I could come to provide the model for how to | think. Psychology has become the study of behavior, but no one denies |
| Tx:5.57 | that can create like the Father, because only the complete can | think completely, and the thinking of God lacks nothing. Everything |
| Tx:5.57 | completely, and the thinking of God lacks nothing. Everything you | think that is not through the Holy Spirit is lacking. |
| Tx:5.63 | capable of creating reality. We said before that you must learn to | think with God. To think with Him is to think like Him. This |
| Tx:5.63 | reality. We said before that you must learn to think with God. To | think with Him is to think like Him. This engenders joy, not guilt, |
| Tx:5.63 | that you must learn to think with God. To think with Him is to | think like Him. This engenders joy, not guilt, because it is natural. |
| Tx:5.67 | What you have made can always be changed, because when you do not | think like God you are not really thinking at all. Delusional ideas |
| Tx:5.67 | comes from God and is in God. As part of His Thought, you cannot | think apart from Him. |
| Tx:5.68 | that you do not know this. They also show that you believe you can | think apart from God and want to. Every thought disorder is attended |
| Tx:5.92 | Why should you listen to the endless insane calls which you | think are made upon you when you know the Voice of God Himself is in |
| Tx:6.24 | this, you still believe it. This is not as God thinks, and you must | think as He thinks if you are to know Him again. |
| Tx:6.25 | that keeps it going. The reason, however, may not be as clear as you | think. |
| Tx:6.33 | Because your minds are split, you can also perceive as well as | think. Yet perception cannot escape from the basic laws of mind. You |
| Tx:6.61 | your dreams are gone, you will know that you will last forever. Many | think this is accomplished through death, but nothing is accomplished |
| Tx:6.62 | and therefore not of the Kingdom. The body is the symbol of what you | think you are. It is clearly a separation device and therefore does |
| Tx:6.77 | You are not asked to make insane decisions, although you are free to | think you are. It must, however, be insane to believe that it is up |
| Tx:7.6 | To | think like God is to share His certainty of what you are and to |
| Tx:7.48 | contradicts the changelessness of mind as God created it, but you | think that you have changed it as long as you learn through the ego. |
| Tx:7.48 | the Holy Spirit in him that never changes His Mind. He himself must | think he can, or he would not perceive himself as sick. He therefore |
| Tx:7.61 | His Kingdom. The only reason you find this difficult is because you | think there is something else. Belief does not require vigilance |
| Tx:7.72 | of it in you. Every response you make is determined by what you | think you are, and what you want to be is what you think you are. |
| Tx:7.72 | by what you think you are, and what you want to be is what you | think you are. Therefore, what you want to be determines every |
| Tx:7.79 | If you will to separate yourself from God, that is what you will | think others are doing to you. |
| Tx:8.19 | will see yourself. As you treat him, you will treat yourself. As you | think of him, you will think of yourself. Never forget this, for in |
| Tx:8.19 | treat him, you will treat yourself. As you think of him, you will | think of yourself. Never forget this, for in him you will find |
| Tx:8.29 | Do you not | think the world needs peace as much as you do? Do you not want to |
| Tx:8.48 | powerless only in a way that has no meaning at all.] When you | think you are unwilling to will with God, you are not thinking. God's |
| Tx:8.77 | how you feel, because you have accepted the ego's confusion, and you | think that a learning device can tell you how you feel. Sickness is |
| Tx:8.94 | The only source of fear in this whole process can only be what you | think you lose. Yet it is only what the Holy Spirit sees that you can |
| Tx:9.5 | you teach you learn? Your brother is as right as you are, and if you | think he is wrong, you are condemning yourself. |
| Tx:9.10 | or you would not make them. It would merely be further error to | think either that you do not make them or that you can correct them |
| Tx:9.65 | You know from your own experience that what you see in dreams you | think is real as long as you are asleep. Yet the instant you waken, |
| Tx:9.65 | everything that seemed to happen did not happen at all. You do not | think this mysterious, even though all the laws of what you awakened |
| Tx:9.74 | change your reality? No one can will to destroy himself. When you | think you are attacking yourself, it is a sure sign that you hate |
| Tx:9.74 | you are attacking yourself, it is a sure sign that you hate what you | think you are. And this, and only this, can be attacked by you. What |
| Tx:9.74 | you are. And this, and only this, can be attacked by you. What you | think you are can be hateful, and what this strange image makes you |
| Tx:9.78 | are willing to keep it hidden and to protect this idol, which you | think will save you from the dangers which the idol itself stands |
| Tx:9.81 | them and serve them, because you believe that they made you. You | think they are your father because you are projecting onto them the |
| Tx:9.85 | worship him in whatever form he may appear to you and wherever you | think you see him, he will disappear into the nothingness out of |
| Tx:9.93 | is with what is not. No one can really do this, but that you can | think you can and believe you have is beyond dispute. |
| Tx:9.96 | Mind of God's Son against His Will. The “attack on God” made His Son | think he was fatherless, and out of his depression, he made the god |
| Tx:9.99 | He does not retaliate, but He does call to you to return. When you | think He has not answered your call, you have not answered His. He |
| Tx:10.20 | protection, but only because your care is a sign that you want Him. | Think like Him ever so slightly, and the little spark becomes a |
| Tx:10.75 | for you, He will restore what you have thrown away. As long as you | think you know its meaning, you will see no need to ask it of Him. |
| Tx:10.80 | Realize that you are afraid of His specificity for fear of what you | think it will demand of you. Yet only by asking will you learn that |
| Tx:11.25 | Suppose a brother insists on having you do something you | think you do not want to do. The very fact of his insistence should |
| Tx:11.31 | You are at odds with the world as you perceive it because you | think it is antagonistic to you. This is a necessary consequence of |
| Tx:11.66 | you will find them, but you will recognize neither. For you will | think they are the same because you want them both. The mind always |
| Tx:11.68 | When you | think you are projecting what you do not want, it is still because |
| Tx:11.70 | anything, nor can you really receive anything else from them. If you | think you have received anything else, it is because you have looked |
| Tx:11.75 | have been treacherous to God and therefore deserve death. You will | think that death comes from God and not from the ego because, by |
| Tx:12.10 | you look upon your hatred and realize its full extent. You may also | think that it would be easy enough for the Holy Spirit to show it to |
| Tx:12.13 | to the call of love if you heard it, and the whole world you | think you control would vanish. The Holy Spirit, then, seems to be |
| Tx:12.14 | You have built your whole insane belief system because you | think you would be helpless in God's Presence, and you would save |
| Tx:12.14 | Presence, and you would save yourself from His love because you | think it would crush you into nothingness. You are afraid it would |
| Tx:12.14 | that magnitude lies in defiance and that attack is grandeur. You | think you have made a world which God would destroy; and by loving |
| Tx:12.24 | is hell and oblivion, and the real Heaven is the greatest threat you | think you could experience. For hell and oblivion are ideas which you |
| Tx:12.69 | not know and your advice unto yourself will hurt you. For what you | think you need will merely serve to tighten up your world against the |
| Tx:13.5 | possible even here. Help Him to give His gift of light to all who | think they wander in the darkness, and let Him gather them into His |
| Tx:13.13 | the past, the future will be like it. Whatever you hold as dear, you | think is yours. The power of your valuing will make it so. |
| Tx:13.34 | we shine with brightness so intense that none of us alone can even | think on it. Before the glorious radiance of the Kingdom, guilt melts |
| Tx:13.52 | yourselves the task of sharing what cannot be shared. And while you | think it possible to learn to do this, you will not believe all that |
| Tx:13.69 | he does this or does it not will make no difference; you will | think he does. It is impossible to offer what you do not want without |
| Tx:13.71 | He can do nothing that can hurt you, and by refusing to allow him to | think he can, you teach him that the Atonement, which you have |
| Tx:13.73 | those who believe they are guilty will respond to guilt because they | think it is salvation and will not refuse to see it and side with it. |
| Tx:13.78 | what God wills for you is your will. Without His guidance, you will | think you know alone and will decide against your peace as surely as |
| Tx:13.83 | Whenever you are in doubt what you should do, | think of His Presence in you and tell yourself this and only this: |
| Tx:13.87 | you attain with God beside you. For until you do, you will still | think that you are separate from Him. You can feel His Presence next |
| Tx:14.15 | Come gladly to the holy circle, and look out in peace on all who | think they are outside. Cast no one out, for this is what he seeks, |
| Tx:14.20 | separate from God, but He perceives much in your mind that lets you | think you are. All this, and nothing else, would He separate from |
| Tx:14.49 | this is true about the thoughts which cross the mind of those who | think they live apart. For some are reflections of Heaven, while |
| Tx:14.49 | of Heaven, while others are motivated by the ego, which but seems to | think. The result is a weaving, changing pattern which never rests |
| Tx:14.61 | understanding, for if you do, you contradict the light and thereby | think you see the darkness. Yet darkness cannot be seen, for it is |
| Tx:14.63 | wholly free of fear of any kind, and if all those who meet or even | think of you share in your perfect peace, then you can be sure that |
| Tx:14.63 | around you. The absence of perfect peace means but one thing: you | think you do not will for God's Son what His Father wills for him. |
| Tx:14.68 | willing to acknowledge that it is impossible. It is only because you | think that you can run some little part or deal with certain aspects |
| Tx:14.69 | Do you | think that what the Holy Spirit would have you give He would withhold |
| Tx:14.72 | their motivation for learning by thinking they already know. | Think not you understand anything until you pass the test of perfect |
| Tx:14.73 | for this, it must be peace they want and nothing else. Whenever you | think you know, peace will depart from you because you have abandoned |
| Tx:14.75 | from which they both arise, is yours as surely as it is His. You | think you know Him not only because, alone, it is impossible to know |
| Tx:15.10 | aid to happiness and peace. Take this very instant, now, and | think of it as all there is of time. Nothing can reach you here out |
| Tx:15.24 | remember this: Every decision which you make stems from what you | think you are and represents the value that you put upon yourself. |
| Tx:15.33 | to grasp for peace yourself, salvation will be given you. Yet | think not you can substitute your plan for His. Rather, join with me |
| Tx:15.34 | is in him. For where you would help your brother be, there will you | think you are. Hear not his call for hell and littleness, but only |
| Tx:15.36 | it far from you. By so much as you want it will you bring it nearer. | Think not that you can find salvation in your own way and have it. |
| Tx:15.41 | yourself alone. For in private thoughts, known only to yourself, you | think you find a way to keep what you would have alone and share what |
| Tx:15.55 | Think you that you can judge the Self of God? God has created it | |
| Tx:15.59 | calls on God for love, your call remains as strong. Nor do you | think that, by God's answer to him, your hope of answer is |
| Tx:15.75 | remember this—to be with a body is not communication. And if you | think it is, you will feel guilty about communication and will be |
| Tx:15.75 | you will be abandoned. And yet you do believe it. For you | think that your minds must be kept private or you will lose them, and |
| Tx:15.82 | Think but an instant on this: God gave the Sonship to you to ensure | |
| Tx:15.86 | is impossible to recognize as wholly without gratification what you | think you want. The body is the symbol of the ego, as the ego is the |
| Tx:15.87 | ego would limit everyone to a body for its purposes, and while you | think it has a purpose, you will choose to utilize the means by which |
| Tx:15.95 | to be host to the ego or hostage to God. This is the choice you | think you have, and the decision which you believe that you must make. |
| Tx:15.97 | ego, you believe that you can give all your guilt away whatever you | think and purchase peace. And the payment does not seem to be yours. |
| Tx:15.97 | that the ego, which you invited, is treacherous only to those who | think they are its host. The ego will never let you perceive this, |
| Tx:15.98 | with the idea of being able to be neither completely. And this you | think saves you from God, Whose total love would completely destroy |
| Tx:15.99 | You | think that everyone outside yourself demands your sacrifice, but you |
| Tx:15.101 | would bargain with them for a few special relationships in which you | think you see some scraps of safety. Do not try longer to keep apart |
| Tx:16.8 | You will attempt to do this only in secrecy. And you will | think that, by meeting the needs of one, you do not jeopardize |
| Tx:16.10 | You still | think holiness is difficult because you cannot see how it can be |
| Tx:16.11 | is but a way of avoiding or looking away from the whole to what you | think you might be better able to understand. For this is but another |
| Tx:16.11 | keep understanding to yourself. A better and far more helpful way to | think of miracles is this: You do not understand them, either in part |
| Tx:16.14 | You | think your lack of understanding is a loss to you, and so you are |
| Tx:16.16 | just as you fear, that to acknowledge Him is to deny all that you | think you know. But it was never true. What gain is there to you in |
| Tx:16.20 | and let it work in peace. Have faith in what has faith in you. | Think what you have really seen and heard and recognize it. Can you |
| Tx:16.29 | Your bridge is builded stronger than you | think, and your foot is planted firmly on it. Have no fear that the |
| Tx:16.36 | It is essential that we look very closely at exactly what it is you | think you can do to solve the dilemma, which seems very real to you, |
| Tx:16.52 | relationship as a triumph over God, would you want it? Let us not | think of its fearful nature nor of the guilt it must entail nor of |
| Tx:16.52 | out in the special relationship. Through the death of your self, you | think you can attack another self and snatch it from the other to |
| Tx:16.52 | the self which you despise. And you despise it because you do not | think it offers the specialness which you demand. And hating it, you |
| Tx:16.53 | How can you grant unlimited power to what you | think you have attacked? So fearful has the truth become to you that |
| Tx:16.53 | [and unworthy of value,] you would not dare to look upon it. You | think it safer to endow the little self which you have made with |
| Tx:16.68 | join it, it will join with you and become one with you. And you will | think in glad astonishment that for all this you gave up nothing! The |
| Tx:16.71 | you change the past except in fantasy? And who can give you what you | think the past deprived you of? The past is nothing. Do not seek to |
| Tx:16.71 | you are maintaining the illusion that it has not gone because you | think it serves some purpose that you want fulfilled. And it must |
| Tx:17.2 | wish to change reality that is fearful, because by your wish you | think you have accomplished what you wish. This strange position in a |
| Tx:17.5 | Think you that you can bring truth to fantasy and learn what truth | |
| Tx:17.15 | They represent the evil that you | think was done to you. You bring them with you only that you may |
| Tx:17.15 | return evil for evil, hoping that their witness will enable you to | think guiltily of another and not harm yourself. They speak so |
| Tx:17.33 | without the picture you cannot have. Defenses operate to make you | think you can. |
| Tx:17.37 | picture, you will realize that it was only the frame that made you | think it was a picture. Without the frame, the picture is seen as |
| Tx:17.51 | You are very new in the ways of salvation and | think you have lost your way. Your way is lost, but think not this is |
| Tx:17.51 | of salvation and think you have lost your way. Your way is lost, but | think not this is loss. In your newness, remember that you have |
| Tx:17.52 | joined with many in the holy instant, and they have joined with you. | Think not your choice will leave you comfortless, for God Himself has |
| Tx:17.55 | holy presence of truth itself. Here is the goal, together with you. | Think you not the goal itself will gladly arrange the means for its |
| Tx:17.71 | Yet | think on this, and learn the cause of faithlessness: You think you |
| Tx:17.71 | Yet think on this, and learn the cause of faithlessness: You | think you hold against the other what he has done to you. But what |
| Tx:17.78 | crucifixion of the Son of God. His faithlessness did this to him. | Think carefully before you let yourself use faithlessness against |
| Tx:18.6 | loss is meaningless and only increase is conceivable. Do you really | think it strange that a world in which everything is backwards and |
| Tx:18.14 | Does not a world that seems quite real arise in dreams? Yet | think what this world is. It is clearly not the world you saw before |
| Tx:18.21 | blessing which the Holy Spirit has laid upon it will be extended. | Think not that He has forgotten anyone in the purpose He has given |
| Tx:18.21 | that He has forgotten anyone in the purpose He has given you. And | think not that He has forgotten you to whom He gave the gift. He uses |
| Tx:18.22 | one of dreams to one of truth. You are not sure of this because you | think it may be this that is the dream. You are so used to choosing |
| Tx:18.26 | your fear increases, for there is little doubt that what you | think it means is fearful. Yet what is that to us who travel surely |
| Tx:18.36 | to confuse your role with God's. Atonement cannot come to those who | think that they must first atone, but only to those who offer it |
| Tx:18.36 | for you. Rather than seek to prepare yourself for Him, try to | think thus: |
| Tx:18.50 | a body cannot be guilty, for it can do nothing of itself. You who | think you hate your bodies deceive yourselves. You hate your minds, |
| Tx:18.71 | limited love was its origin, and it was made to limit the unlimited. | Think not that this is merely allegorical, for it was made to limit |
| Tx:18.71 | identify with externals, something outside itself. You cannot even | think of God without a body or some form you think you recognize. |
| Tx:18.71 | itself. You cannot even think of God without a body or some form you | think you recognize. |
| Tx:18.73 | the sun; this almost imperceptible ripple hails itself as the ocean. | Think how alone and frightened is this little thought, this |
| Tx:18.77 | and deep content to every part. The little aspect which you | think you set apart is no exception. |
| Tx:18.85 | This is the little part of you, you | think you stole from Heaven. Give it back to Heaven. Heaven has not |
| Tx:18.85 | of the Son of God, complete and holy, serene and unaware of what you | think surrounds it. Be you not separate, for the One Who does |
| Tx:19.8 | to it, making it sick because of its identification with it. You | think you are protecting the body by hiding this connection, for this |
| Tx:19.16 | how not to interfere with it and make it slave to time. For what you | think you do to the eternal you do to you. Whom God created as His |
| Tx:19.24 | with the ego that it is far better to be sinful than mistaken. Yet | think you carefully before you allow yourself to make this choice. |
| Tx:19.26 | The ego does not | think it possible that love, not fear, is really called upon by sin |
| Tx:19.26 | true must be eternal and will be repeated endlessly.] For what you | think is real you want and will not let it go. An error, on the other |
| Tx:19.41 | Why would you want peace homeless? What do you | think that it must dispossess to dwell with you? What seems to be the |
| Tx:19.58 | To | think you could be satisfied and happy with so little is to hurt |
| Tx:19.60 | This [is] the value that you | think peace would rob you of. This is what you believe that it would |
| Tx:19.65 | upon each other as you would look on me. Forgive me all the sins you | think the Son of God committed. And in the light of your forgiveness, |
| Tx:19.66 | joyous message of the end of guilt, and all the world will answer. | Think of your happiness as everyone offers you witness of the end of |
| Tx:19.69 | which called them forth and therefore is compatible with them. But | think you which it is that is compatible with you. |
| Tx:19.70 | it is free. But all that lies in it will come with it, and what you | think you are can never be apart from it. The body is the great |
| Tx:19.70 | and disillusionment and for retaliative attack on what you | think has failed you? Use not your error as the justification for |
| Tx:19.85 | life. And what but insanity could look upon the defeat of God and | think it real? |
| Tx:19.90 | What would you see without the fear of death? What would you feel and | think if death held no attraction for you? Very simply, you would |
| Tx:19.104 | the sins your brother thinks he has committed and all the guilt you | think you see in him. |
| Tx:19.105 | which we will return until redemption is accomplished and received. | Think who your brother is before you would condemn him. And offer |
| Tx:19.109 | Think carefully how you would look upon the giver of this gift, for | |
| Tx:20.5 | or for its use. See all the useless things made for its eyes to see. | Think on the many offerings made for its pleasure and remember all |
| Tx:20.10 | about a while and laid aside. Listen and hear this carefully, nor | think it but a dream—a careless thought to play with or a toy you |
| Tx:20.19 | you and you disappear? You made this up. It is a picture of what you | think you are, of how you see yourself. A murderer is frightened, and |
| Tx:20.33 | For He Who knows the rest will see to it without your help. But | think not that He does not need your part to help Him with the rest. |
| Tx:20.34 | This is the purpose given you. | Think not that your forgiveness of each other serves but you two |
| Tx:20.34 | to have His laws perfectly fulfilled in them and all their brothers. | Think you when this has been achieved that you will rest without |
| Tx:20.40 | vision that you will merely love him and be glad. You will not | think to judge him, for who would see the face of Christ and yet |
| Tx:20.60 | it. Before we look at them a little closer, remember that if you | think they are impossible, your wanting of the purpose has been |
| Tx:20.68 | is also not of you. Rejoice in what is yours but for the asking and | think not that you need make either means or end. All this is given |
| Tx:20.70 | you laid upon it. What can you value more than this? Why do you | think the body is a better home, a safer shelter for God's Son? Why |
| Tx:20.77 | after vision, who is there who could refuse what must come after? | Think but an instant just on this—you can behold the holiness God |
| Tx:20.77 | —you can behold the holiness God gave His Son. And never need you | think that there is something else for you to see. |
| Tx:21.6 | become accustomed to their world by their adjustments to it. They | think they know their way about in it. They learned it, not through |
| Tx:21.6 | They hate the world they learned through pain. And everything they | think is in it serves to remind them that they are incomplete and |
| Tx:21.7 | they define their life and where they live, adjusting to it as they | think they must, afraid to lose the little that they have. And so it |
| Tx:21.7 | the body is to save the little that they have. Listen and try to | think if you remember what we will speak of now. |
| Tx:21.21 | threatens this seems to attack your faith, for here is it invested. | Think not that you are faithless, for your belief and trust in this |
| Tx:21.26 | created not by your Creator has any influence over you. And if you | think what you have made can tell you what you see and feel and place |
| Tx:21.26 | your Creator and believing that you made yourself. For if you | think the world you made has power to make you what it wills, you are |
| Tx:21.35 | once served sin are redirected now toward holiness. For what you | think is sin is limitation, and whom you try to limit to the body you |
| Tx:21.37 | Those who believe in sin must | think the Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how they think |
| Tx:21.37 | must think the Holy Spirit asks for sacrifice, for this is how they | think their purpose is accomplished. Brothers, the Holy Spirit knows |
| Tx:21.39 | Think you the Holy Spirit is concerned with this? He gives not what | |
| Tx:21.39 | with this? He gives not what it is His purpose to lead you from. You | think He would deprive you for your good. But “good” and |
| Tx:21.41 | fearful. You are indeed afraid to look within and see the sin you | think is there. This you would not be fearful to admit. Fear in |
| Tx:21.45 | the Holy Spirit's purpose, and so there must be something else. | Think not that this is madness. For this your reason tells you, and |
| Tx:21.50 | beyond your own control and far more powerful than you. And you will | think the world you made directs your destiny. For this will be your |
| Tx:21.52 | the basic question is obvious, simple, and remains unasked. But | think not reason could not answer it. |
| Tx:21.59 | value them, but their correction. Reason will also tell you when you | think you sin, you call for help. Yet if you will not accept the help |
| Tx:21.59 | to your brother. And if he shares this same belief, you both will | think that you are damned. This you could spare him and yourself. For |
| Tx:21.61 | No one can | think but for himself, as God thinks not without His Son. Only were |
| Tx:21.61 | His Son. Only were both in bodies could this be. Nor could one mind | think only for itself unless the body were the mind. For only bodies |
| Tx:21.63 | The body does not separate you from your brother, and if you | think it does, you are insane. But madness has a purpose and believes |
| Tx:21.63 | part be kept away from other parts? Reason would tell you this. But | think what you must recognize if it be so. |
| Tx:21.64 | have him, and what you choose he be is but your choice for you. Yet | think not this is fearful. That you are joined to him is but a fact, |
| Tx:21.83 | Why do you | think you are unsure the others have been answered? Could it be |
| Tx:21.84 | as helpless. Desire what you will, and you will look on it and | think it real. No thought but has the power to release or kill. And |
| Tx:21.89 | will is powerful as His, a power that is not lost in your illusions, | think carefully why it should be you have not yet decided how you |
| Tx:22.2 | each to complete himself and rob the other. They stay until they | think there's nothing left to steal and then move on. And so they |
| Tx:22.4 | Think what a holy relationship can teach! Here is belief in | |
| Tx:22.6 | And yet this strange idea, which it does accurately describe, you | think is you. Reason would tell you that the world you see through |
| Tx:22.7 | For you have listened to what can never communicate at all. | Think, then, what happened. Denying what you are and firm in faith |
| Tx:22.8 | is the one emotion that keeps you blind, dependent on the self you | think you made to lead you through the world it made for you. |
| Tx:22.12 | Think what is given you, my holy brothers. This child will teach you | |
| Tx:22.14 | reborn in just an instant. For what is time to what was always so? | Think what that instant brought—the recognition that the “something |
| Tx:22.39 | way that seem hard, for you have chosen, although you still may | think you can go back and make the other choice. This is not so. A |
| Tx:22.40 | your awareness, and peace has reached you even here before the veil. | Think what will happen after! The love of Christ will light your |
| Tx:22.41 | Think of the loveliness that you will see who walk with Him! And | |
| Tx:22.41 | Think of the loveliness that you will see who walk with Him! And | think how beautiful will each of you look to the other! How happy you |
| Tx:22.53 | Be not disturbed at all to | think how He can change the role of means and end so easily in what |
| Tx:22.60 | And it is only arrogance that would deny the power of your will. | Think you the Will of God is powerless? Is this humility? You do not |
| Tx:22.61 | could be real. You do not see that this is your attempt because you | think the Father and the Son are separate. And you must think that |
| Tx:22.61 | because you think the Father and the Son are separate. And you must | think that they are separate because of fear. For it seems safer to |
| Tx:22.64 | your minds are one? Look not with fear upon this happy fact and | think not that it lays a heavy burden on you. For when you have |
| Tx:23.2 | fight against it and try to weaken it because of this; and you will | think that you succeeded and attack again. It is as certain you will |
| Tx:23.4 | you to littleness. There can be no attraction of guilt in innocence. | Think what a happy world you walk with truth beside you! Do not give |
| Tx:23.8 | love there. This is the conflict's purpose. And to those who | think that it is possible, the means seem real. |
| Tx:23.11 | must be forgotten. It is forgotten in the body's life, and if you | think you are a body, you will believe you have forgotten it. Yet |
| Tx:23.17 | turn on itself and seek to overcome the One Who dwells there? And | think what happens when the house of God perceives itself divided. |
| Tx:23.21 | Think how this seems to interfere with the first principle of | |
| Tx:23.23 | Think what this seems to do to the relationship between the Father | |
| Tx:23.24 | which would define what the Creator of reality must be; what He must | think and what He must believe; and how He must respond, believing |
| Tx:23.26 | And God Himself seems to be siding with it to overcome His Son. | Think not the ego will enable you to find escape from what it wants. |
| Tx:23.29 | it was taken from you by this enemy and hidden where you would not | think to look. He hid it in his body, making it the cover for his |
| Tx:23.35 | says it wants to save. Be not deceived when madness takes a form you | think is lovely. What is intent on your destruction is not your |
| Tx:23.36 | You would maintain and | think it true that you do not believe these senseless laws nor act |
| Tx:23.39 | reversal, leading still deeper into terror and away from truth. | Think not one step is smaller than another nor that return from one |
| Tx:23.46 | desire to communicate and the unnatural intent to murder and to die. | Think you the form that murder takes can offer safety? Can guilt be |
| Tx:23.54 | Think what is given those who share their Father's purpose and who | |
| Tx:23.54 | their happiness could ever suffer change of any kind. Perhaps you | think the battleground can offer something that you can win. Can it |
| Tx:23.55 | Those with the strength of God in their awareness could never | think of battle. What could they gain but loss of their perfection? |
| Tx:24.4 | challenge you to combat and to violence far more inclusive than you | think, are there by your election. Do not deny their presence nor |
| Tx:24.9 | makes you give each other only partial welcome or would let you | think that you are better off apart. Is it not always your belief |
| Tx:24.15 | You are not special. If you | think you are and would defend your specialness against the truth of |
| Tx:24.16 | would look upon, and it would show them that the specialness they | think they see is an illusion. What would they see instead? |
| Tx:24.18 | this: He has not lost the power to forgive you all the sins you | think you placed between him and the function of salvation given him |
| Tx:24.19 | Think of the loveliness that you will see within yourself when you | |
| Tx:24.30 | death is not your will, must say, “Thy will be done” because you | think it is. |
| Tx:24.43 | but the sight of death? Where does it lead but to destruction? Yet | think not that it looked upon your brother first, nor hated him |
| Tx:24.56 | and needs no end. What never was is not a part of you. Yet you will | think it is until you realize that it is not a part of him who stands |
| Tx:24.58 | the rest. You place yourself under the laws you see as ruling him. | Think, then, how great the love of God for you must be that He has |
| Tx:24.65 | body, yes, a little—not from time, but temporarily. And much you | think you save, you hurt. What would you save it for? For in that |
| Tx:25.2 | bodies. And as long as they believe they are in bodies, where they | think they are He cannot be. And so they carry Him unknowingly and do |
| Tx:25.6 | to be—the world you want to live in and the state in which you | think your mind will be content and satisfied. It chooses where you |
| Tx:25.6 | think your mind will be content and satisfied. It chooses where you | think your safety lies, at your decision. It reveals yourself to you |
| Tx:25.10 | takes note of time and place as if they were discrete, for while you | think that part of you is separate, the concept of a oneness joined |
| Tx:25.12 | that what the body's eyes perceive fills you with fear? Perhaps you | think you find a hope of satisfaction there. Perhaps you fancy to |
| Tx:25.17 | that will endure forever when yours has crumbled into dust. But | think you not the picture is destroyed in any way. What God creates |
| Tx:25.18 | which but reflects the light that shines from it to its Creator. | Think not this face was ever darkened because you saw it in a frame |
| Tx:25.31 | but he can wish for what would hurt him. And he has the power to | think he can be hurt. What could this be except a misperception of |
| Tx:25.33 | at what you see because you see it to rejoice.” And while you | think that suffering and sin will bring you joy, so long will they be |
| Tx:25.35 | Would you not do this for the love of God? And for yourself? For | think what it would do for you. Your “evil” thoughts that haunt you |
| Tx:25.38 | wholly innocent? And who, because he wishes to attack, can fail to | think it must be guilty to deserve the wish and leave him innocent? |
| Tx:25.40 | he would have found if he fulfilled the role God gave to him. But | think not Heaven is lost to him alone. Nor can it be regained unless |
| Tx:25.48 | not imposed on you; its values are not yours. [And nothing that you | think you see in it is really there at all.] And this is seen and |
| Tx:25.49 | Holy Spirit needs your special function that His may be fulfilled. | Think not you lack a special value here. You wanted it, and it is |
| Tx:25.52 | Let us go back to what we said before and | think of it more carefully. It must be so that either God is mad or |
| Tx:25.53 | your Father's sanity and yours. For God and His beloved Son do not | think differently. And it is the agreement of their thought that |
| Tx:25.53 | must lie apart from both the Father and the Son. This you believe. | Think not that this belief depends upon the form it takes. Who thinks |
| Tx:25.56 | to your special needs and to the special time and place in which you | think you find yourself and where you can be free of place and time |
| Tx:25.69 | So do they | think the loss of sin a curse. And flee [the blessing of] the Holy |
| Tx:25.70 | are innocent. Love is not understandable to sinners because they | think that justice is split off from love and stands for something |
| Tx:25.71 | and vitality and powerless to save? What can Love ask of you who | think that all of this is true? Could He, in justice and in love |
| Tx:25.78 | What can it be but arrogance to | think your little errors cannot be undone by Heaven's justice? And |
| Tx:25.85 | Unless you | think that all your brothers have an equal right to miracles with |
| Tx:26.3 | placed on everything outside, just as they are on everything you | think is yours. For giving and receiving are the same. And to accept |
| Tx:26.7 | eyes and ears bear witness to the death of God and of His holy Son, | think not that you have power to make of them what God willed not |
| Tx:26.11 | The Holy Spirit offers you release from every problem that you | think you have. They are the same to Him because each one, regardless |
| Tx:26.12 | This one mistake in any form has one correction. There is no loss; to | think there is, is a mistake. You have no problems, though you think |
| Tx:26.12 | to think there is, is a mistake. You have no problems, though you | think you have. And yet you could not think so if you saw them vanish |
| Tx:26.12 | have no problems, though you think you have. And yet you could not | think so if you saw them vanish one by one without regard to size, |
| Tx:26.12 | which you perceive that makes each one seem different from the rest. | Think not the limits you impose on what you see can limit God in any |
| Tx:26.15 | and necessary to preserve yourself. It is these problems that you | think are great and cannot be resolved. For there are those you want |
| Tx:26.16 | Think then how great your own release will be when you are willing to | |
| Tx:26.31 | when it can be used to reach a goal as high as learning can achieve? | Think not the way to Heaven's gate is difficult at all. Nothing you |
| Tx:26.33 | maze you still perceive in time, though it has long since gone. You | think you live in what is past. Each thing you look upon you saw but |
| Tx:26.45 | Whom all power in earth and Heaven rests. The one illusion that you | think is friend obscures His grace and majesty from you and keeps His |
| Tx:26.68 | different forms. If it has been projected beyond your minds, you | think of it as time. The nearer it is brought to where it is, the |
| Tx:26.68 | of it as time. The nearer it is brought to where it is, the more you | think of it in terms of space. |
| Tx:26.69 | believe that trust would settle every problem now. Thus do you | think it safer to remain a little careful and a little watchful of |
| Tx:26.69 | conceive of gaining what forgiveness offers now. The interval you | think lies in between the giving and receiving of the gift seems to |
| Tx:26.77 | Think but how holy you must be from whom the Voice for God calls | |
| Tx:26.77 | that you may awake in him the Voice that answers to your call! And | think how holy he must be when in him sleeps your own salvation with |
| Tx:26.85 | have a differential view of when attack is justified and when you | think it is unfair and not to be allowed. When you perceive it as |
| Tx:26.85 | is unfair and not to be allowed. When you perceive it as unfair, you | think that a response of anger now is just. And thus you see what is |
| Tx:26.86 | unfair to you? It means that there must be some forms in which you | think it fair. For otherwise, how could some be evaluated as unfair? |
| Tx:26.89 | You | think your brother is unfair to you because you think that one must |
| Tx:26.89 | You think your brother is unfair to you because you | think that one must be unfair to make the other innocent. And in this |
| Tx:27.16 | of witness comes from your belief. And everything you say or do or | think but testifies to what you teach to him. |
| Tx:27.23 | Correction, to a mind so split, must be a way to punish sins you | think are yours in someone else. And thus does he become your victim, |
| Tx:27.24 | seems to have a different purpose from the one you cherish and you | think is yours. Thus does your function seem divided, with a half in |
| Tx:27.25 | two. And what you would correct is only half the error, which you | think is all of it. Your brother's sins become the central target for |
| Tx:27.59 | is past forgiveness and is true. How foolish and insane it is to | think a miracle is bound by laws which it came solely to undo! The |
| Tx:27.64 | of what I do. Your presence justifies my wrath, and you exist and | think apart from me. While you attack, I must be innocent. And what I |
| Tx:27.73 | more fearful than an idle dream has terrified God's Son and made him | think that he has lost his innocence, denied his Father, and made war |
| Tx:27.82 | understand that time cannot intrude upon eternity. It is a joke to | think that time can come to circumvent eternity, which means there is |
| Tx:27.83 | see depicts exactly what you thought you did. Except that now you | think that what you did is being done to you. The guilt for what you |
| Tx:27.84 | truth—you will believe that others do to you exactly what you | think you did to them. But once deluded into blaming them, you will |
| Tx:28.38 | you fear and not the mind. You see them as the same because you | think that you are but a dream. And what is real and what is but |
| Tx:28.39 | his illusion of himself, for your identity depends on his reality. | Think rather of him as a mind in which illusions still persist, but |
| Tx:28.49 | fearing it, you will not want to know your own Identity because you | think that it is fearful. And you will deny your Self and walk upon |
| Tx:28.50 | understand or know. Its eyes are blind; its ears are deaf. It cannot | think, and so it cannot have effects. |
| Tx:28.57 | own and all the rest of what is really yours. You hate it, yet you | think it is your self and that without it would your self be lost. |
| Tx:28.64 | you alone. This world is but the dream that you can be alone and | think without affecting those apart from you. To be alone must mean |
| Tx:29.2 | consequence the little gap must bring to those who cherish it and | think that it is their salvation and their hope. |
| Tx:29.5 | not within itself. And herein lies its power over you. For now you | think that it determines when you meet and limits your ability to |
| Tx:29.20 | not know he has, for giving is the proof of having. Only those who | think that God is lessened by their strength could fail to understand |
| Tx:29.21 | Think you the Father lost Himself when He created you? Was He made | |
| Tx:29.26 | The dreams you | think you like would hold you back as much as those in which the fear |
| Tx:29.28 | this become the “reason” your attack is justified? The dreams you | think you like are those in which the functions you have given have |
| Tx:29.28 | should represent and should achieve for you. If it succeeds, you | think you like the dream. If it should fail, you think the dream is |
| Tx:29.28 | If it succeeds, you think you like the dream. If it should fail, you | think the dream is sad. But whether it succeeds or fails is not its |
| Tx:29.31 | are They remembered both. And where They are is Heaven and is peace. | Think not that you can change Their dwelling place. For your Identity |
| Tx:29.40 | where purpose is not fixed, however changeless it appears to be. | Think not that you can set a goal unlike God's purpose for you and |
| Tx:29.42 | bind your feet and tie your hands and kill your body only if you | think that it was made to crucify God's Son. For even though it was a |
| Tx:29.52 | What is an idol? Do you | think you know? For idols are unrecognized as such and never seen for |
| Tx:29.64 | the world and give their toys the power to move about and talk and | think and feel and speak for them. Yet everything their toys appear |
| Tx:30.2 | and dedication weak, you are not ready. Do not fight yourself. But | think about the kind of day you want and tell yourself there is a way |
| Tx:30.7 | 2. Throughout the day, at any time you | think of it and have a quiet moment for reflection, tell yourself |
| Tx:30.30 | may be free. There is no freedom from what must occur. And if you | think there is, you must be wrong. |
| Tx:30.36 | For what is done to him whom God so loves is done to God Himself. | Think not He wills to bind you, Who has made you co-creator of the |
| Tx:30.41 | It never is the idol that you want. But what you | think it offers you, you want indeed and have the right to ask for. |
| Tx:30.43 | nor have they a separate life apart from his. The thoughts you | think are in your mind, as you are in the mind Which thought of you. |
| Tx:30.49 | ones. All idols are the false ideas you made to fill the gap you | think arose between yourself and what is true. And you attack them |
| Tx:30.49 | yourself and what is true. And you attack them for the things you | think they represent. What lies beyond them cannot be attacked. |
| Tx:30.63 | at the edge of the real world. Perhaps they still look back and | think they see an idol that they want. Yet has their path been surely |
| Tx:30.66 | Do not look back except in honesty. And when an idol tempts you, | think of this: |
| Tx:30.73 | But he is saved from this dilemma if he can forgive. The mind must | think of its Creator as it looks upon itself. If you can see your |
| Tx:30.73 | have learned forgiveness is your right as much as his. Nor will you | think that God intends for you a fearful judgment which your brother |
| Tx:30.75 | idols and are not prepared as yet to let all idols go. And thus you | think that some appearances are real and not appearances at all. Be |
| Tx:30.75 | are harder to look past than others are. It always means you | think forgiveness must be limited. And you have set a goal of partial |
| Tx:30.78 | is perfect, or he cannot be God's Son. Nor will you know him if you | think he does not merit the escape from guilt in all its forms and |
| Tx:30.78 | guilt in all its forms and all its consequence. There is no way to | think of him but this if you would know the truth about yourself: |
| Tx:30.82 | each one be open to interpretation which is different every time you | think of it. You add an element into the script you write for every |
| Tx:30.83 | on different aspects of experience. And then in looking back you | think you see another meaning in what went before. What have you |
| Tx:30.89 | you see will change, and yet you thought it real before, and now you | think it real again. Reality is thus reduced to form and capable of |
| Tx:31.14 | And by your wish, you set two choices to be made each time you | think you must decide on anything. Neither is true. Nor are they |
| Tx:31.16 | Perhaps you call it love. Perhaps you | think that it is murder justified at last. You hate the one you gave |
| Tx:31.16 | And this is what you made your brother for and learned to | think that this his purpose is. Unless he serves it, he has not |
| Tx:31.18 | Before you answer, pause to | think of this: |
| Tx:31.21 | and answer to the Christ Who calls to you. Be still and listen. | Think not ancient thoughts. Forget the dismal lessons that you |
| Tx:31.23 | would be a safer place for him to be. Can you make progress if you | think the same, advancing only when he would step back and falling |
| Tx:31.25 | clear that while you still insist on leading or on following, you | think you walk alone with no one by your side? This is the road to |
| Tx:31.30 | which sin must kill. In death is sin preserved, and those who | think that they are sin must die for what they think they are. |
| Tx:31.30 | and those who think that they are sin must die for what they | think they are. |
| Tx:31.31 | nor keep in chains to the illusion of a changing love the ones you | think are friends. |
| Tx:31.33 | There is a tendency to | think the world can offer consolation and escape from problems which |
| Tx:31.33 | And you are in control of outcomes of your choosing. Thus you | think within the narrow band from birth to death a little time is |
| Tx:31.39 | Think not that happiness is ever found by following a road away from | |
| Tx:31.42 | from yourself does not exist. How foolish and insane it is to | think that there could be a road with such an aim! Where could it go? |
| Tx:31.51 | you. For even though you do not yet perceive that this is what you | think, you surely learned by now that you behave as if it were. Does |
| Tx:31.52 | attacks it so? Let us forget the concept's foolishness and merely | think of this—there are two parts to what you think yourself to be. |
| Tx:31.52 | and merely think of this—there are two parts to what you | think yourself to be. If one was generated by your brother, who was |
| Tx:31.53 | must be kept in darkness is that in the light the one who would not | think it true is you. And what would happen to the world you know if |
| Tx:31.56 | the mind, but with the simple statement that it thinks. And what can | think has choice and can be shown that different thoughts have |
| Tx:31.62 | but this one. What you decide in this determines all you see and | think is real and hold as true. On this one choice does all your |
| Tx:31.65 | forever true. It matters not where you believe you are nor what you | think the truth about yourself must really be. It makes no difference |
| Tx:31.65 | no difference what you look upon nor what you choose to feel or | think or wish. For God Himself has said, “Your will be done.” And it |
| Tx:31.67 | Your will be done, you holy Child of God. It does not matter if you | think you are in earth or Heaven. What your Father wills for you can |
| Tx:31.71 | but never jointly held. The contrast is far greater than you | think, for you will love this concept of yourself because it was not |
| Tx:31.81 | and meaningless, to make yourself a thing which you are not. And | think as well upon the thing that you would be instead. It is a thing |
| Tx:31.86 | and the strength of Christ in you. And what you choose is what you | think is real. Simply by never using weakness to direct your actions, |
| W1:I.1 | nothing. It is the purpose of these exercises to train the mind to | think along the lines which the course sets forth. |
| W1:4.1 | subjects for the idea. Do not, however, select only the thoughts you | think are “bad.” You will find, if you train yourself to look at your |
| W1:5.1 | preceding one, can be used with any person, situation, or event you | think is causing you pain. Apply it specifically to whatever you |
| W1:5.3 | I am not angry at ____ for the reason I | think. I am not afraid of ____ for the reason I think. |
| W1:5.3 | for the reason I think. I am not afraid of ____ for the reason I | think. |
| W1:5.4 | “sources” of upset in which you believe and forms of upset which you | think result. |
| W1:5.7 | is distressing you, regardless of how much or how little you | think it is doing so. |
| W1:5.8 | to some perceived sources of upset than to others. If this occurs, | think first of this: |
| W1:5.11 | I am not worried about ____ for the reason I | think. I am not depressed about ____ for the reason I think. |
| W1:5.11 | the reason I think. I am not depressed about ____ for the reason I | think. |
| W1:7.6 | It is the reason why you are never upset for the reason you | think. |
| W1:8.2 | true thought one can hold about the past is that it is not here. To | think about it at all is therefore to think about illusions. Very few |
| W1:8.2 | is that it is not here. To think about it at all is therefore to | think about illusions. Very few minds have realized what is actually |
| W1:10.2 | around you. The emphasis is now on the lack of reality of what you | think you think. |
| W1:10.2 | The emphasis is now on the lack of reality of what you think you | think. |
| W1:10.3 | a blank. To recognize this is to recognize nothingness when you | think you see it. As such, it is the prerequisite for vision. |
| W1:12.1 | that it contains a correction for a major perceptual distortion. You | think that what upsets you is a frightening world, or a sad world, or |
| W1:12.4 | I | think I see a fearful world, a dangerous world, a hostile world, a |
| W1:12.5 | than negative occur to you, include them. For example, you might | think of a “good world,” or a “satisfying world.” If such terms occur |
| W1:12.6 | alter the time intervals between applying today's idea to what you | think is pleasant and what you think is unpleasant. For the purposes |
| W1:12.6 | applying today's idea to what you think is pleasant and what you | think is unpleasant. For the purposes of these exercises, there is no |
| W1:13.1 | meaning exists. However, it does not follow that you will not | think you perceive something that has no meaning. On the contrary, |
| W1:13.1 | has no meaning. On the contrary, you will be particularly likely to | think you do perceive it. |
| W1:13.7 | A meaningless world engenders fear because I | think I am in competition with God. |
| W1:13.8 | Do not dwell on the concluding statement, and try not even to | think of it except during the exercise periods. That will suffice at |
| W1:14.4 | With eyes closed, | think of all the horrors in the world that cross your mind. Name each |
| W1:15.1 | It is because the thoughts you | think you think appear as images that you do not recognize them as |
| W1:15.1 | It is because the thoughts you think you | think appear as images that you do not recognize them as nothing. You |
| W1:15.1 | appear as images that you do not recognize them as nothing. You | think you think them, and so you think you see them. This is how your |
| W1:15.1 | as images that you do not recognize them as nothing. You think you | think them, and so you think you see them. This is how your “seeing” |
| W1:15.1 | not recognize them as nothing. You think you think them, and so you | think you see them. This is how your “seeing” was made. This is the |
| W1:17.1 | the way the world thinks, but you must learn that it is the way you | think. If it were not so, perception would have no cause and would |
| W1:23.4 | cause is gone? Vision already holds a replacement for everything you | think you see now. Loveliness can light your images and so transform |
| W1:26.4 | thoughts can attack you. Nothing except your thoughts can make you | think you are vulnerable. And nothing except your thoughts can prove |
| W1:30.4 | “near” and “far.” To help you begin to get used to this idea, try to | think of things beyond your present range as well as those you can |
| W1:35.2 | You will believe that you are part of where you | think you are. That is because you surround yourself with the |
| W1:35.8 | You should not | think of these terms in an abstract way. They will occur to you as |
| W1:35.10 | intervals in which nothing specific occurs to you. Do not strain to | think up specific things to fill the interval, but merely relax and |
| W1:38.3 | problems, difficulties, or suffering in any form that you happen to | think of in yourself or someone else. We will make no distinctions |
| W1:39.1 | which has been overlooked in the clouds of complexity in which you | think you think. |
| W1:39.1 | been overlooked in the clouds of complexity in which you think you | think. |
| W1:41.5 | period, repeat today's idea very slowly. Then make no effort to | think of anything. Try instead to get a sense of turning inward, past |
| W1:41.8 | often, repeating it very slowly and preferably with eyes closed. | Think of what you are saying; what the words mean. Concentrate on the |
| W1:42.4 | eyes and repeat the idea again, quite slowly. After this, try to | think of nothing except thoughts which occur to you in relation to |
| W1:42.4 | thoughts which occur to you in relation to today's idea. You might | think, for example: |
| W1:43.3 | apart from God. Whatever you do, you do in Him because whatever you | think, you think with His Mind. If vision is real, and it is real to |
| W1:43.3 | God. Whatever you do, you do in Him because whatever you think, you | think with His Mind. If vision is real, and it is real to the extent |
| W1:43.11 | out of accord with today's idea, or if you seem to be unable to | think of anything, open your eyes, repeat the first phase, and then |
| W1:44.1 | darkness, and you cannot make light. You can make darkness and then | think you see in it, but light reflects life and is therefore an |
| W1:44.10 | that you are approaching if not actually entering into light. Try to | think of light, formless and without limit, as you pass by the |
| W1:45.1 | the key to what your real thoughts are. They are nothing that you | think you think, just as nothing that you think you see is related to |
| W1:45.1 | to what your real thoughts are. They are nothing that you think you | think, just as nothing that you think you see is related to vision in |
| W1:45.1 | They are nothing that you think you think, just as nothing that you | think you see is related to vision in any way. There is no |
| W1:45.1 | any way. There is no relationship between what is real and what you | think is real. Nothing that you think are your real thoughts |
| W1:45.1 | between what is real and what you think is real. Nothing that you | think are your real thoughts resembles your real thoughts in any |
| W1:45.1 | resembles your real thoughts in any respect. Nothing that you | think you see bears any resemblance to what vision will show you. |
| W1:45.2 | You | think with the Mind of God. Therefore you share your thoughts with |
| W1:45.2 | To share is to make alike or to make one. Nor do the thoughts you | think with the Mind of God leave your mind, because thoughts do not |
| W1:50.4 | let the idea for today sink deep into your consciousness. Repeat it, | think about it, let related thoughts come to help you recognize its |
| W1:R1.3 | periods. Rather, try merely to emphasize the central point and | think about it as part of your review of the idea to which it relates. |
| W1:51.2 | is necessary that I recognize this, that I may learn to see. What I | think I see now is taking the place of vision. I must let it go by |
| W1:51.5 | of which I am aware do not mean anything because I am trying to | think without God. What I call “my” thoughts are not my real |
| W1:51.5 | are not my real thoughts. My real thoughts are the thoughts I | think with God. I am not aware of them because I have made my |
| W1:51.5 | My thoughts are meaningless, but all creation lies in the thoughts I | think with God. |
| W1:51.6 | [5] I am never upset for the reason I | think. I am never upset for the reason I think because I am |
| W1:51.6 | upset for the reason I think. I am never upset for the reason I | think because I am constantly trying to justify “my” thoughts. I am |
| W1:54.3 | [17] I see no neutral things. What I see witnesses to what I | think. If I did not think, I would not exist, because life is |
| W1:54.3 | neutral things. What I see witnesses to what I think. If I did not | think, I would not exist, because life is thought. Let me look on the |
| W1:54.5 | the effects of my thoughts. I am alone in nothing. Everything I | think or say or do touches all the universe. A Son of God cannot |
| W1:54.5 | I think or say or do touches all the universe. A Son of God cannot | think or speak or act in vain. He cannot be alone in anything. It is |
| W1:55.5 | recognize my own best interests when I do not know who I am? What I | think are my best interests would merely bind me closer to the world |
| W1:56.3 | all else I want to see. Recognizing that what I see reflects what I | think I am, I realize that vision is my greatest need. The world I |
| W1:59.4 | Beyond His Will lie only illusions. It is these I choose when I | think I can see apart from Him. It is these I choose when I try to |
| W1:59.6 | [45] God is the Mind with which I | think. I have no thoughts I do not share with God. I have no thoughts |
| W1:61.4 | You will want to | think about this idea as often as possible today. It is the perfect |
| W1:61.7 | Then | think about these statements for a short while, preferably with your |
| W1:64.2 | the world is a place where you learn to forgive yourself what you | think of as your sins. In this perception, the physical appearance of |
| W1:66.7 | thoughts are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let us, then, | think about the premises for a while, as we are practicing. |
| W1:66.11 | Think about this during the longer practice period today. Think also | |
| W1:66.11 | Think about this during the longer practice period today. | Think also about the many forms which the illusion of your function |
| W1:66.12 | listen to madness or hear the truth. Try to make this choice as you | think about the premises on which our conclusion rests. We can share |
| W1:66.16 | than a minute, and probably less, to repeat these words slowly and | think about them a little while you say them. |
| W1:67.2 | moment, that it is the truth. In the longer practice period, we will | think about your reality and its wholly unchanged and unchangeable |
| W1:68.2 | make you unlike Him. It makes you believe that He is like what you | think you have become, for no one can conceive of his Creator as |
| W1:68.5 | Perhaps you do not | think you can let all your grievances go. That, however, is simply a |
| W1:68.6 | as major grievances. Some of these will be quite easy to find. Then | think of the seemingly minor grievances you hold against those you |
| W1:68.6 | seemingly minor grievances you hold against those you like and even | think you love. It will quickly become apparent that there is no one |
| W1:68.9 | Spend the remainder of the practice period trying to | think of yourself as completely at peace with everyone and |
| W1:69.4 | go of all the content which generally occupies your consciousness. | Think of your mind as a vast circle, surrounded by a layer of heavy |
| W1:70.13 | pass the clouds by whatever means appeals to you. If it helps you, | think of me holding your hand and leading you. And I assure you this |
| W1:74.9 | difficult to resolve, single it out for special consideration. | Think about it briefly but very specifically, identify the particular |
| W1:76.3 | Think of the freedom in the recognition that you are not bound by all | |
| W1:76.3 | and twisted laws which you have set up to save you. You really | think that you would starve unless you have stacks of green paper |
| W1:76.3 | stacks of green paper strips and piles of metal discs. You really | think a small round pellet or some fluid pushed into your veins |
| W1:76.3 | veins through a sharpened needle will ward off death. You really | think you are alone unless another body is with you. |
| W1:76.4 | long catalogue of rituals that have no use and serve no purpose. You | think you must obey the “laws” of medicine, of economics, and of |
| W1:76.5 | It is from this your “laws” would save the body. It is for this you | think you are a body. |
| W1:76.8 | of medication, and of the body's protection in innumerable ways. | Think further—you believe in the laws of friendship, of “good” |
| W1:76.9 | Perhaps you even | think that there are laws which set forth what is God's and what is |
| W1:78.5 | and look at him. Someone perhaps you fear and even hate; someone you | think you love who angers you; someone you call a friend, but whom |
| W1:78.7 | his body with its flaws and better points as well, and we will | think of his mistakes and even of his “sins.” |
| W1:78.10 | The body's eyes are closed, and as you | think of him who grieved you, let your mind be shown the light in him |
| W1:78.12 | behind our grievances. To everyone you meet and to the ones you | think of or remember from the past, allow the role of savior to be |
| W1:79.5 | as you regard them. Some spring up unexpectedly, just as you | think you have resolved the previous ones. Others remain unsolved |
| W1:79.7 | free our minds of all the many different kinds of problems that we | think we have. We will try to realize that we have only one problem, |
| W1:83.2 | only, I am always certain what to do, what to say, and what to | think. All doubt must disappear as I acknowledge that my only |
| W1:91.8 | this statement ends is needed for our exercises today. What you | think you are is a belief to be undone. But what you really are must |
| W1:92.1 | The idea for today is an extension of the previous one. You do not | think of light in terms of strength and darkness in terms of |
| W1:92.2 | and the body's eyes can see. You also believe the body's brain can | think. If you but understood the nature of thought, you could but |
| W1:92.2 | more foolish than to believe the body's eyes can see, the brain can | think. |
| W1:92.3 | that is the light in which you see, as it is His Mind with which you | think. His strength denies your weakness. It is your weakness that |
| W1:93.1 | You | think you are the home of evil, darkness, and sin. You think if |
| W1:93.1 | You think you are the home of evil, darkness, and sin. You | think if anyone could see the truth about you he would be repelled, |
| W1:93.1 | be repelled, recoiling from you as if from a poisonous snake. You | think if what is true about you were revealed to you, you would be |
| W1:93.3 | Today we question this, not from the point of view of what you | think, but from a very different reference point from which such idle |
| W1:93.4 | would you not be overjoyed to be assured that all the evil that you | think you did was never done, that all your “sins” are nothing, that |
| W1:93.4 | in you? Your image of yourself cannot withstand the Will of God. You | think that this is death, but it is life. You think you are |
| W1:93.4 | the Will of God. You think that this is death, but it is life. You | think you are destroyed, but you are saved. |
| W1:93.5 | this self does not exist at all. And anything it seems to do and | think means nothing. It is neither bad nor good. It is unreal and |
| W1:93.7 | created you, not what you made of yourself. Whatever evil you may | think you did, you are as God created you. Whatever mistakes you |
| W1:96.6 | Yet mind apart from Spirit cannot | think. It has denied its Source of strength and sees itself as |
| W1:96.17 | of it is given everyone who asks for it and will accept the gift. | Think, then, how much is given unto you to give this day, that it be |
| W1:99.10 | This part belongs to God, as does the rest. It does not | think its solitary thoughts and make them real by hiding them from |
| W1:99.12 | Think of these things in practicing today, and start your longer | |
| W1:99.15 | have no function that is not of God. Forgive yourself the one you | think you made. Forgiveness and salvation are the same. Forgive what |
| W1:100.8 | of you or anyone who wants to take his place among God's messengers. | Think what this means. You have indeed been wrong in your belief that |
| W1:101.1 | suffering as penance for your “sins.” This is not so. Yet you must | think it so while you believe that sin is real and that God's Son can |
| W1:102.1 | You do not want to suffer. You may | think it buys you something and may still believe a little that it |
| W1:102.2 | at all. It offers nothing and does not exist. And everything you | think it offers you is lacking in existence like itself. You have |
| W1:103.2 | then with love, and its results become the heritage of minds that | think what they have made is real. These images, with no reality in |
| W1:105.7 | to yourself. And here you must return to claim them as your own. | Think of your “enemies” a little while, and tell each one as he |
| W1:105.11 | your five minutes thus with Him each time you can today, but do not | think that less is worthless when you cannot give Him more. At least |
| W1:107.9 | certain of success as we are sure we live and hope and breathe and | think. We do not doubt we walk with truth today and count on it to |
| W1:108.10 | Then close your eyes, and for five minutes | think of what you would hold out to everyone to have it yours. You |
| W1:108.12 | return, for this is what you asked. It might be helpful, too, to | think of one to whom to give your gifts. He represents the others, |
| W1:108.13 | from this time on, and we will make much faster progress now. | Think of the exercises for today as quick advances in your learning, |
| W1:R3.5 | which are written first in each day's exercise. And then begin to | think about them while letting your mind relate them to your needs, |
| W1:R3.11 | you keep your peace throughout the day as well. If you are shaken, | think of it again. These practice periods are planned to help you |
| W1:119.2 | [107] Truth will correct all errors in my mind. I am mistaken when I | think I can be hurt in any way. I am God's Son whose Self rests |
| W1:121.6 | other Self in you. Through Him you learn how to forgive the self you | think you made and let it disappear. Thus you return your mind as one |
| W1:121.9 | that they are one through practicing forgiving toward one whom you | think of as an enemy and one whom you consider as a friend. And as |
| W1:122.13 | forgetfulness but hold them firmly in your mind by your attempts to | think of them at least a minute as each quarter of an hour passes by. |
| W1:123.8 | for you, how perfect is His gratitude to you. Remember hourly to | think of Him and give Him thanks for everything He gave His Son that |
| W1:126.2 | appeals for help are not in any way related to your own. You further | think that they can sin without affecting your perception of |
| W1:126.5 | to let the sinner not escape the justified repayment for his sin. | Think you the Lord of Heaven would allow the world's salvation to |
| W1:126.7 | Him the gift He asks of you, you cannot recognize His gifts and | think He has not given them to you. Yet would He ask you for a gift |
| W1:127.1 | Perhaps you | think that different kinds of love are possible. Perhaps you think |
| W1:127.1 | you think that different kinds of love are possible. Perhaps you | think there is a kind of love for this, a kind for that; a way of |
| W1:127.6 | Today we practice making free our minds of all the laws you | think you must obey, of all the limits under which you live, and all |
| W1:127.6 | all the limits under which you live, and all the changes which you | think are part of human destiny. Today we take the largest single |
| W1:127.11 | our love if we would know our Self. At least three times an hour | think of one who makes the journey with you and who came to learn |
| W1:128.8 | Protect your mind throughout the day as well. And when you | think you see some value in an aspect or an image of the world, |
| W1:129.1 | more satisfying, filled with joy, and capable of offering you peace. | Think you this world can offer that to you? |
| W1:129.2 | It might be worth a little time to | think once more about the value of this world. Perhaps you will |
| W1:130.4 | Fear has made everything you | think you see. All separation, all distinctions, and the multitude of |
| W1:131.5 | seek vainly, though he try to force delay, deceive himself, and | think that it is hell he seeks. When he is wrong, he finds |
| W1:131.13 | I ask to see a different world and | think a different kind of thought from those I made. The world I seek |
| W1:131.13 | made. The world I seek I did not make alone. The thoughts I want to | think are not my own. |
| W1:131.14 | mind and see, although your eyes are closed, the senseless world you | think is real. Review the thoughts as well which are compatible with |
| W1:131.14 | as well which are compatible with such a world and which you | think are true. Then let them go, and sink below them to the holy |
| W1:132.2 | change your mind means you have changed the source of all ideas you | think or ever thought or yet will think. |
| W1:132.2 | the source of all ideas you think or ever thought or yet will | think. |
| W1:132.4 | upon it are your wishes, acted out so you can look on them and | think them real. |
| W1:132.5 | Perhaps you | think you did not make the world but came unwillingly to what was |
| W1:132.6 | into a world quite separate from yourself, impervious to what you | think, and quite apart from what you chance to think it is. |
| W1:132.6 | to what you think, and quite apart from what you chance to | think it is. |
| W1:132.12 | Yet if you are as God created you, you cannot | think apart from Him nor make what does not share His timelessness |
| W1:133.3 | Today we list the real criteria by which to test all things you | think you want. Unless they meet these sound requirements, they are |
| W1:133.12 | thus you do not realize there are but two. And the alternative you | think you chose seems fearful and too dangerous to be the nothingness |
| W1:134.4 | Because you | think your sins are real, you look on pardon as deception. For it is |
| W1:134.4 | are real, you look on pardon as deception. For it is impossible to | think of sin as true and not believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is |
| W1:134.5 | mocked and twice condemned—first by themselves for what they | think they did and once again by those who pardon them. |
| W1:134.7 | them with quiet eyes and merely says to them, “My brother, what you | think is not the truth.” |
| W1:134.9 | of sin in any form, do not allow your mind to dwell on what you | think he did, for this is self-deception. Ask instead, “Should I |
| W1:135.4 | It stems from fear, increasing fear as each defense is made. You | think it offers safety. Yet it speaks of fear made real and terror |
| W1:135.10 | the faults, the weaknesses, the limits, and the lacks from which you | think the body must be saved. You will not see the mind as separate |
| W1:135.16 | is occupied in setting up control of future happenings. It does not | think that it will be provided for unless it makes its own |
| W1:136.3 | recognize exactly what you would attempt to do and then proceed to | think that it is done. |
| W1:136.9 | How do you | think that sickness can succeed in shielding you from truth? Because |
| W1:136.12 | has not bowed to hell, nor life to death. You can but choose to | think you die or suffer sickness or distort the truth in any way. |
| W1:136.14 | fact which demonstrates that time is an illusion. For it lets you | think what God has given you is not the truth right now, as it must |
| W1:137.6 | Yet | think not healing is unworthy of your function here. For anti-Christ |
| W1:138.1 | because here we believe there are alternatives to choose between. We | think that all things have an opposite, and what we want we choose. |
| W1:138.1 | for contradiction is the way we make what we perceive and what we | think is real. Creation knows no opposite. But here is opposition |
| W1:138.4 | You need to be reminded that you | think a thousand choices are confronting you when there is really |
| W1:R4.3 | My mind holds only what I | think with God. |
| W1:R4.6 | And yet your mind holds only what you | think with God. Your self-deceptions cannot take the place of truth. |
| W1:R4.8 | My mind holds only what I | think with God. |
| W1:151.3 | see? You place pathetic faith in what your eyes and ears report. You | think your fingers touch reality and close upon the truth. This is |
| W1:151.3 | and close upon the truth. This is awareness which you understand and | think more real than what is witnessed to by the eternal Voice of God |
| W1:152.1 | his choice elects this state for him. No one can grieve nor fear nor | think him sick unless these are the outcomes that he wants. And no |
| W1:152.6 | Is it not strange that you believe to | think you made the world you see is arrogance? God made it not. Of |
| W1:152.6 | within a body that must die? You but accuse Him of insanity, to | think He made a world where such things seem to have reality. He is |
| W1:152.7 | To | think that God made chaos, contradicts His Will, invented opposites |
| W1:152.7 | things are not of Him. And can you see what God created not? To | think you can is merely to believe you can perceive what God willed |
| W1:152.8 | your rightful place as co-creator of the universe, and all you | think you made will disappear. What rises to awareness then will be |
| W1:152.12 | We | think of truth alone as we arise and spend five minutes practicing |
| W1:153.10 | Be still a moment, and in silence | think how holy is your purpose, how secure you rest, untouchable |
| W1:153.18 | In time, with practice, you will never cease to | think of Him and hear His loving Voice guiding your footsteps into |
| W1:153.18 | even though your time is spent in offering salvation to the world. | Think you He will not make this possible for you who chose to carry |
| W1:154.1 | its entirety. Our part is cast in Heaven, not in hell. And what we | think is weakness can be strength; what we believe to be our strength |
| W1:155.14 | And now He asks but that you | think of Him a while each day that He may speak to you and tell you |
| W1:157.5 | you look upon. A vision reaches everyone you meet, and everyone you | think of, or who thinks of you. For your experience today will so |
| W1:161.4 | not understood nor understandable. The mind that taught itself to | think specifically can no longer grasp abstraction in the sense that |
| W1:161.12 | smile, and see familiar gestures which he makes so frequently. Then | think of this—what you are seeing now conceals from you the sight |
| W1:162.4 | complete because its sharing is unlimited. And thus you learn to | think with God. Christ's vision has restored your sight by salvaging |
| W1:164.8 | the curtain in your practicing by merely letting go all things you | think you want. Your trifling treasures put away and leave a clean |
| W1:166.1 | is one with His, His gifts are not received. But what would make you | think there is another will than His? |
| W1:166.2 | world is not the Will of God, and so it is not real. Yet those who | think it real must still believe there is another will, and one that |
| W1:166.9 | touched your shoulder, and you feel that you are not alone. You even | think the miserable self you thought was you may not be your |
| W1:167.3 | You | think that death is of the body. Yet it is but an idea, irrelevant to |
| W1:167.6 | The mind can | think it sleeps, but that is all. It cannot change what is its waking |
| W1:167.11 | it and wills it be forever and forever. He is Lord of what we | think today. And in His thoughts, which have no opposite, we |
| W1:169.6 | We cannot speak nor write nor even | think of this at all. It comes to every mind when total recognition |
| W1:170.1 | attacks without intent to hurt. This can have no exception. When you | think that you attack in self defense, you mean that to be cruel is |
| W1:170.10 | Yet do not | think that fear is the escape from fear. Let us remember what the |
| W1:182.4 | Perhaps you | think it is your childhood home that you would find again. The |
| W1:182.9 | comes without defenses, offering only love's messages to those who | think he is their enemy. He holds the might of Heaven in His hand and |
| W1:183.8 | which can never be refused. And God will come and answer it Himself. | Think not He hears the little prayers of those who call on Him with |
| W1:184.2 | a space between all things, between all things and you. Thus do you | think that you have given life in separation. By this split you think |
| W1:184.2 | you think that you have given life in separation. By this split you | think you are established as a unity which functions with an |
| W1:184.6 | sum of the inheritance the world bestows. And everyone who learns to | think that it is so accepts the signs and symbols which assert the |
| W1:184.8 | Think not you made the world. Illusions, yes! But what is true in | |
| W1:184.10 | of what is true. And then step back to darkness, not because you | think it real, but only to proclaim its unreality in terms which |
| W1:185.2 | mean these words and not be healed. He cannot play with dreams nor | think he is himself a dream. He cannot make a hell and think it real. |
| W1:185.2 | dreams nor think he is himself a dream. He cannot make a hell and | think it real. He wants the peace of God, and it is given him. For |
| W1:188.6 | become the holy messengers of God Himself. These thoughts you | think with Him. They recognize their home. And they point surely to |
| W1:189.10 | Our hands are open to receive Your gifts. We have no thoughts we | think apart from You and cherish no beliefs of what we are or who |
| W1:190.4 | The time has come to laugh at such insane ideas. There is no need to | think of them as savage crimes or secret sins with weighty |
| W1:190.6 | My holy brothers, | think of this awhile—the world you see does nothing. It has no |
| W1:192.5 | at all. The mind without the body cannot make mistakes. It cannot | think that it will die nor be the prey of merciless attack. Anger |
| W1:192.7 | rage and our attack. Our understanding is so limited that what we | think we understand is but confusion born of error. We are lost in |
| W1:193.15 | long, and we would linger here no more. And as we practice, let us | think about all things we saved to settle by ourselves and kept apart |
| W1:194.8 | replacing all your thoughts of sin and evil with the truth of love. | Think you the world could fail to gain thereby and every living |
| W1:195.9 | Today we learn to | think of gratitude in place of anger, malice, and revenge. We have |
| W1:197.1 | must be received with honor, lest they be withdrawn. And so you | think God's gifts are loans at best; at worst, deceptions which would |
| W1:197.6 | Withdraw the gifts you give, and you will | think that what is given you has been withdrawn. But learn to let |
| W1:197.6 | been withdrawn. But learn to let forgiveness take away the sins you | think you see outside yourself, and you can never think the gifts of |
| W1:197.6 | away the sins you think you see outside yourself, and you can never | think the gifts of God are lent but for a little while before He |
| W1:197.9 | extend this Self. All that you do is given unto Him. All that you | think can only be His thoughts, sharing with Him the holy thoughts of |
| W1:197.9 | yourself when you forgot the function God has given you. But never | think that He has ever ceased to offer thanks to you. |
| W1:198.7 | place where death is offered to God's Son and to his Father. You may | think They have accepted, but if you will look again upon the place |
| W1:198.8 | They could die! How foolish to believe you can attack! How mad to | think that you could be condemned and that the holy Son of God can |
| W1:R6.11 | place you in His charge and let Him teach you what to do and say and | think each time you turn to Him. He will not fail to be available to |
| W1:219.1 | I am not a body. I am free. I am God's Son. Be still, my mind, and | think a moment upon this. And then return to earth without confusion |
| W2:I.9 | the truth. Now we are glad that this is all undone, and we no longer | think illusions true. The memory of God is shimmering across the wide |
| W2:231.1 | What can I seek for, Father, but Your Love? Perhaps I | think I seek for something else—a something I have called by many |
| W2:236.1 | am its king at all. It seems to triumph over me and tell me what to | think and what to do and feel. And yet it has been given me to serve |
| W2:238.2 | And so again today we pause to | think how much our Father loves us. And how dear His Son, created by |
| W2:242.2 | come with wholly open minds. We do not ask for anything that we may | think we want. Give us what You would have received by us. You know |
| W2:243.1 | I will be honest with myself today. I will not | think that I already know what must remain beyond my present grasp. I |
| W2:243.1 | I already know what must remain beyond my present grasp. I will not | think I understand the whole from bits of my perception, which are |
| W2:245.1 | I give Your peace to those who suffer pain or grieve for loss or | think they are bereft of hope and happiness. Send them to me, my |
| W2:246.1 | Let me not | think that I can find the way to God if I have hatred in my heart. |
| W2:246.1 | if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not try to hurt God's Son and | think that I can know his Father or my Self. Let me not fail to |
| W2:WIB.3 | can change the purpose which the body will obey by changing what we | think that it is for. |
| W2:WIB.5 | You will identify with what you | think will make you safe. Whatever it may be, you will believe that |
| W2:261.1 | I will identify with what I | think is refuge and security. I will behold myself where I perceive |
| W2:261.1 | and security. I will behold myself where I perceive my strength and | think I live within the citadel where I am safe and cannot be |
| W2:265.1 | back at me. How fierce they seemed! And how deceived was I to | think that what I feared was in the world instead of in my mind |
| W2:275.2 | to go, to whom to speak, and what to say to him, what thoughts to | think, what words to give the world. The safety that I bring is given |
| W2:281.1 | If ever I am sad or hurt or ill, I have forgotten what You | think and put my little, meaningless ideas in place of where Your |
| W2:281.1 | They are. I can be hurt by nothing but my thoughts. The thoughts I | think with You can only bless. The thoughts I think with You alone |
| W2:281.1 | The thoughts I think with You can only bless. The thoughts I | think with You alone are true. |
| W2:292.1 | long we let an alien will appear to be opposing His. And while we | think this will is real, we will not find the end He has appointed as |
| W2:292.2 | us for every problem that we can perceive, for every trial we | think we still must meet. |
| W2:309.1 | will as God created it and as it is. I fear to look within because I | think I made another will which is not true and made it real. Yet it |
| W2:330.2 | Father, Your Son cannot be hurt. And if we | think we suffer, we but fail to know our one Identity we share with |
| W2:331.1 | me desolate, to die within a world of pain and cruelty. How could I | think that Love has left Itself? There is no will except the will of |
| W2:339.1 | No one desires pain. But he can | think that pain is pleasure. No one would avoid his happiness. But he |
| W2:339.1 | that pain is pleasure. No one would avoid his happiness. But he can | think that joy is painful, threatening, and dangerous. Everyone will |
| W2:357.1 | me how to offer miracles and thus escape the prison house in which I | think I live. Your holy Son is pointed out to me, first in my |
| W2:E.4 | with Him as Guide through every difficulty and all pain that you may | think is real. Nor will He give you pleasures that will pass away, |
| M:I.3 | that you set up is therefore determined exclusively by what you | think you are and what you believe the relationship of others is to |
| M:I.3 | situation, these questions may be totally unrelated to what you | think you are teaching. Yet it is impossible not to use the content |
| M:I.3 | are trying to protect is real. But it does mean that the self you | think is real is what you teach. |

| M:16.3 | At the beginning, it is wise to | think in terms of time. This is by no means the ultimate criterion, |
| M:16.5 | —not more than a moment will do—in which you close your eyes and | think of God. |
| M:16.6 | release—limitless because all things are freed within it. You | think you made a place of safety for yourself. You think you made a |
| M:16.6 | within it. You think you made a place of safety for yourself. You | think you made a power that can save you from all the fearful things |
| M:17.6 | you. Do not remember the immensity of the “enemy,” and do not | think about your frailty in comparison. Accept your separation, but |
| M:17.7 | clearly to your frightened mind, “You have usurped the place of God. | Think not He has forgotten.” Here we have the fear of God most |
| M:20.4 | must have taken it again as your defense. Stop for a moment now and | think of this: is conflict what you want, or is God's peace the |
| M:27.1 | central dream from which all illusions stem. Is it not madness to | think of life as being born, aging, losing vitality, and dying in the |
| M:27.2 | of the universe as God created it, it would not be possible to | think of Him as loving. For who has decreed that all things pass |
| M:27.6 | the world fosters in its vain attempts to cling to death and yet to | think love real are mindless magic, ineffectual and meaningless. God |
| M:29.3 | it is this that lets the memory of love return to you. Do not, then, | think that following the Holy Spirit's guidance is necessary merely |

| W1:11.1 | to a major phase of the correction process—the reversal of the | thinking of the world. It seems as if the world determines what you |
| W1:19.1 | affect you alone. You will notice that at times the ideas related to | thinking precede those related to perceiving, while at other times |
| W1:19.1 | is reversed. The reason is that the order does not actually matter. | Thinking and its results are really simultaneous, for cause and |
| W1:20.1 | not lost sight of the crucial importance of the reversal of your | thinking. The salvation of the world depends on it. Yet you will not |
| W1:34.4 | If you begin to experience difficulty in | thinking of specific subjects, continue to repeat the idea to |
| W1:37.2 | way in which the idea of sacrifice can be removed from the world's | thinking. Any other way of seeing will inevitably demand payment of |
| W1:39.10 | a few short intervals in which you just relax and do not seem to be | thinking of anything. Sustained concentration is very difficult at |
| W1:45.6 | closing your eyes as you do so. Spend a fairly short period in | thinking a few relevant thoughts of your own, keeping the idea in |
| W1:45.12 | of Him Whose host you are. And thank Him for the thoughts He is | thinking with you. |
| W1:R1.2 | at least once. Devote two minutes or more to each practice period, | thinking about the idea and the related comments. Do this as often as |
| W1:52.6 | of creation and part of its Creator. Would I not rather join the | thinking of the universe than to obscure all that is really mine with |
| W1:53.3 | no order anywhere. Only chaos rules a world which represents chaotic | thinking, and chaos has no laws. I cannot live in peace in such a |
| W1:54.2 | cannot be without effects. As the world I see arises from my | thinking errors, so will the real world rise before my eyes as I let |

| W1:64.10 | day, devote several minutes to reviewing these thoughts and then to | thinking about them and about nothing else. This will be difficult at |
| W1:68.7 | to see all these people as friends. Say to them all collectively, | thinking of each one in turn as you do so: |
| W1:69.2 | our more extended practice period, let us devote several minutes in | thinking about what we are trying to do. We are literally attempting |
| W1:71.9 | Begin the two longer practice periods for today by | thinking about today's idea, and realizing that it contains two |
| W1:R2.2 | general form: take about 15 minutes for each of them, and begin by | thinking about the idea and the comments which are included in the |
| W1:105.7 | our practice periods will start a little differently. Begin today by | thinking of those brothers who have been denied by you the peace and |
| W1:106.10 | the ministry for which you came and which will free the world from | thinking giving is a way to lose. And so the world becomes ready to |
| W1:121.10 | Begin the longer practice periods by | thinking of someone you do not like, who seems to irritate you or to |
| W1:125.9 | no rule but this to let your practicing today lift you above the | thinking of the world and free your vision from the body's eyes. Only |
| W1:126.1 | Today's idea, completely alien to the ego and the | thinking of the world, is crucial to the thought reversal which this |

| M:4.18 | lies merely in the obviousness of its reversal of the world's | thinking. In the clearest way possible and at the simplest of levels, |
| M:4.21 | for a time. To give up all problems to one Answer is to reverse the | thinking of the world entirely. And that alone is faithfulness. |
| M:14.3 | the final lesson in which unity is restored. It goes against all the | thinking of the world, but so does Heaven. |
| M:14.4 | has been completely reversed. Until then, bits and pieces of its | thinking will still seem sensible. The final lesson which brings the |
| M:28.2 | is the denial of death, being the assertion of life. Thus is all the | thinking of the world reversed entirely. Life is now recognized as |

| Tx:7.42 | Him, but it is quite evident that he does not understand God if he | thinks he has something that others [do not]. You might well ask, |
| Tx:7.47 | his brothers, but he is not grateful to them. This is because he | thinks he is giving something to them and is not receiving something |
| Tx:7.49 | your mind about his for him, you help him undo the change his ego | thinks it has made in him. As you can hear two voices, so you can see |
| Tx:8.20 | Everyone is looking for himself and for the power and glory he | thinks he has lost. Whenever you are with anyone, you have another |
| Tx:8.53 | a body, you will always experience depression. When a Child of God | thinks of himself in this way, he is belittling himself and seeing |
| Tx:9.78 | A sick god must be an idol, made in the image of what its maker | thinks he is. And that is exactly what the ego does perceive in a Son |
| Tx:12.23 | you here, leaving you no inheritance except the dust out of which it | thinks you were made. As long as it is reasonably satisfied with you, |
| Tx:13.15 | Lay not his guilt upon him, for his guilt lies in his secret that he | thinks that he has done this unto you. Would you, then, teach him |
| Tx:15.71 | to be much stronger than the attraction of what you do. For each one | thinks that he has sacrificed something to the other and hates him |
| Tx:15.71 | something to the other and hates him for it. Yet this is what he | thinks he wants. He is not in love with the other at all. He merely |
| Tx:15.72 | ego demands, and it does not object where the mind goes or what it | thinks, for this seems unimportant. As long as the body is there to |
| Tx:16.2 | joins except to strengthen itself. [Having identified with what it | thinks it understands, it sees itself and would increase itself by |
| Tx:16.12 | the whole in every part is perfectly natural. For it is the way God | thinks, and what is natural to Him is natural to you. Wholly natural |
| Tx:16.49 | complete. Yet when it finds the special relationship in which it | thinks it can accomplish this, it gives itself away and tries to |
| Tx:16.49 | Each partner tries to sacrifice the self he does not want for one he | thinks he would prefer. And he feels guilty for the “sin” of taking |
| Tx:18.74 | lost to them, for it could not survive apart from them. And what it | thinks it is in no way changes its total dependence on them for its |
| Tx:18.84 | wild and delusional thought needs help because in its delusions it | thinks it is the Son of God, whole and omnipotent, sole ruler of the |
| Tx:19.23 | killed! And this would be the ego's wish, which in its madness it | thinks it has accomplished. |
| Tx:19.25 | and will be forever desirable. As an essential part of what the ego | thinks you are, you will always want it. And only an avenger with a |
| Tx:19.104 | is free, and what you give you share. Forgive the sins your brother | thinks he has committed and all the guilt you think you see in him. |
| Tx:19.107 | See him as guiltless as I look on you, and overlook the sins he | thinks he sees within himself. Offer each other freedom and complete |
| Tx:21.25 | capable of serving as a cause of the events and feelings its maker | thinks it causes. Long ago we spoke of your desire to create your own |
| Tx:21.27 | of its maker, and cannot serve to justify the madness. Your brother | thinks he made the world with you. Thus he denies creation. With you, |
| Tx:21.27 | he made the world with you. Thus he denies creation. With you, he | thinks the world he made, made him. Thus he denies he made it. |
| Tx:21.61 | No one can think but for himself, as God | thinks not without His Son. Only were both in bodies could this be. |
| Tx:22.2 | For an unholy relationship is based on differences, where each one | thinks the other has what he has not. They come together, each to |
| Tx:22.9 | what this vision tells you, for everyone sees only what he | thinks he is. And what your sight would show you, you will understand |
| Tx:22.64 | This is the function of your holy relationship. For what one | thinks the other will experience with him. What can this mean except |
| Tx:23.1 | No one is strong who has an enemy, and no one can attack unless he | thinks he has. Belief in enemies is therefore the belief in weakness, |
| Tx:23.8 | Is this a victory? The ego always marches to defeat because it | thinks that triumph over you is possible. And God thinks otherwise. |
| Tx:23.8 | defeat because it thinks that triumph over you is possible. And God | thinks otherwise. This is no war—only the mad belief the Will of |
| Tx:23.34 | but for the emphasis on form and disregard of content. No one who | thinks that one of them is true sees what it says. Some forms it |
| Tx:23.41 | to meet his horrified awareness and pursue him still. For no one | thinks of murder and escapes the guilt the thought entails. If the |
| Tx:25.3 | The body needs no healing. But the mind that | thinks it is a body is sick indeed! And it is here that Christ sets |
| Tx:25.10 | language which this mind can understand in the condition in which it | thinks it is. And It must use all learning to transfer illusions to |
| Tx:25.50 | strong as God Himself. The world is safe from love to everyone who | thinks sin possible. Nor will it change. Yet is it possible what God |
| Tx:25.53 | Think not that this belief depends upon the form it takes. Who | thinks the world is sane in any way, is justified in anything it |
| Tx:25.53 | Who thinks the world is sane in any way, is justified in anything it | thinks, or is maintained by any form of reason believes this to be |
| Tx:25.67 | He be just if He condemns a sinner for the crimes he did not do but | thinks he did? And where would justice be if He demanded of the ones |
| Tx:25.76 | everything. He is no judge of what must be another's due, because he | thinks he is deprived. And so must he be envious and try to take away |
| Tx:27.18 | you but wish to show your brother that you had no hurt of him. He | thinks your blood is on his hands, and so he stands condemned. Yet it |
| Tx:27.65 | sharing. Yet they do not recognize their common need. For each one | thinks that if he does his part, the condemnation of the world will |
| Tx:27.83 | outside yourself and on a guilty world which dreams your dreams and | thinks your thoughts instead of you. It brings its vengeance, not |
| Tx:28.39 | Like you, your brother | thinks he is a dream. Share not in his illusion of himself, for your |
| Tx:28.44 | healed entirely, does He hold out to every separate piece that | thinks it is a picture in itself. To each he offers his identity, |
| Tx:29.2 | not what love means. He fears to love and loves to hate, and so he | thinks that love is fearful—hate is love. This is the consequence |
| Tx:29.20 | Condemn your savior not because he | thinks he is a body. For beyond his dreams is his reality. But he |
| Tx:29.35 | hands on Heaven itself and hope to find its peace? Your brother | thinks he holds the hand of death. Believe him not. But learn instead |
| Tx:29.65 | where they can turn against him for his treachery to them. He | thinks he needs them that he may escape his thoughts, because he |
| Tx:29.65 | He thinks he needs them that he may escape his thoughts, because he | thinks the thoughts are real. And so he makes of anything a toy to |
| Tx:29.66 | seem to happen, and he is afraid of all the chaos in a world he | thinks is governed by the laws he made. Yet is the real world |
| Tx:29.66 | the laws he made. Yet is the real world unaffected by the world he | thinks is real. Nor have its laws been changed because he did not |
| Tx:29.68 | need to last. They are not made to separate the mind from what it | thinks. They do not seek to prove the dream is being dreamed by |
| Tx:30.53 | His idols do not threaten him at all. His one mistake is that he | thinks them real. What can the power of illusions do? |
| Tx:31.23 | he is and of what you must be. He is afraid to walk with you and | thinks perhaps a bit behind, a bit ahead, would be a safer place for |
| Tx:31.29 | Yet is the body prisoner and not the mind. The body | thinks no thoughts. It has no power to learn, to pardon, nor enslave. |
| Tx:31.30 | The mind that | thinks it is a sin has but one purpose—that the body be the source |
| Tx:31.56 | with content of the mind, but with the simple statement that it | thinks. And what can think has choice and can be shown that different |
| Tx:31.56 | have different consequence. So it can learn that everything it | thinks reflects the deep confusion that it feels about how it was |
| W1:17.1 | it is really the other way around. This is not the way the world | thinks, but you must learn that it is the way you think. If it were |
| W1:35.1 | describe what vision will show you. It is difficult for anyone who | thinks he is in this world to believe this of himself. Yet the reason |
| W1:35.1 | he is in this world to believe this of himself. Yet the reason he | thinks he is in this world is because he does not believe it. |
| W1:45.12 | important it is to you to understand the holiness of the mind that | thinks with God. Take a minute or two as you repeat the idea |
| W1:47.3 | because God has no exceptions. And the Voice Which speaks for Him | thinks as He does. |
| W1:76.4 | It is insanity that | thinks these things. You call them laws and put them under different |
| W1:79.2 | is to be accepted. Who can see that a problem has been solved if he | thinks the problem is something else? Even if he is given the answer, |
| W1:96.6 | helpless, limited, and weak. Dissociated from its function now, it | thinks it is alone and separate, attacked by armies massed against |
| W1:96.6 | support. Now must it reconcile unlike with like, for this is what it | thinks that it is for. |
| W1:99.3 | within a mind where both of them exist? The mind that sees illusions | thinks them real. They have existence in that they are thoughts. And |
| W1:99.3 | they are thoughts. And yet they are not real because the mind that | thinks these thoughts is separate from God. |
| W1:121.5 | and does not see it has condemned itself to this despair. It | thinks it cannot change, for what it sees bears witness that its |
| W1:121.5 | witness that its judgment is correct. It does not ask because it | thinks it knows. It does not question, certain it is right. |
| W1:127.2 | Love's meaning is obscure to anyone who | thinks that love can change. He does not see that changing love must |
| W1:127.2 | He does not see that changing love must be impossible. And thus he | thinks that he can love at times and hate at other times. He also |
| W1:127.2 | he thinks that he can love at times and hate at other times. He also | thinks that love can be bestowed on one and yet remain itself |
| W1:127.3 | as one. Its meaning lies in oneness. And it must elude the mind that | thinks of it as partial or in part. There is no love but God's, and |
| W1:131.10 | God? He thus denies himself and contradicts what has no opposite. He | thinks he made a hell opposing Heaven and believes that he abides in |
| W1:132.1 | illusions are as strong in their effects as is the truth. A madman | thinks the world he sees is real and does not doubt it. Nor can he be |
| W1:133.7 | to him who chooses it. He is deceived by nothing in a form he | thinks he likes. |
| W1:134.4 | as the grass; as white as snow. It is delusional in what it | thinks it can accomplish. It would see as right the plainly wrong, |
| W1:140.1 | to heal the mind, it sees no separation from the body, where it | thinks the mind exists. Its forms of healing thus must substitute |
| W1:157.5 | vision reaches everyone you meet, and everyone you think of, or who | thinks of you. For your experience today will so transform your mind |
| W1:160.1 | to you. What is your Self remains an alien to the part of you which | thinks that it is real but different from yourself. Who could be sane |
| W1:161.6 | vision does not see. The body is the target for attack, for no one | thinks he hates a mind. Yet what but mind directs the body to attack? |
| W1:161.6 | the body to attack? What else could be the seat of fear except what | thinks of fear? |
| W1:166.4 | Here is the only home he | thinks he knows. Here is the only safety he believes that he can |
| W1:189.7 | all images you hold about yourself. Empty your mind of everything it | thinks is either true or false or good or bad, of every thought it |
| W1:190.2 | Pain is but witness to the Son's mistakes in what he | thinks he is. It is a dream of fierce retaliation for a crime that |
| W1:192.8 | be born again in Christ but him who has forgiven everyone he sees or | thinks of or imagines? Who could be set free while he imprisons |
| W1:196.6 | how could there be escape? The fear of God is real to anyone who | thinks this thought is true. And he will not perceive its foolishness |
| W1:197.4 | It does not matter if another | thinks your gifts unworthy. In his mind there is a part that joins |
| W2:WS.1 | born in time will end as well. God's Word is given every mind which | thinks that it has separate thoughts and will replace these thoughts |
| W2:WIB.1 | parts of his Self from other parts. It is within this fence, he | thinks he lives, to die as it decays and crumbles. For within this |
| W2:WIB.1 | he lives, to die as it decays and crumbles. For within this fence he | thinks that he is safe from love. Identifying with its safety, he |
| W2:281.1 | Father, Your Son is perfect. When he | thinks that he is hurt in any way, it is because he has forgotten who |
| W2:319.1 | it must seek for aims which are curtailed and limiting. The ego | thinks that what one gains totality must lose. And yet it is the Will |
| W2:WIE.2 | apart from All, in separation from the Infinite. In its insanity it | thinks it has become a victor over God Himself, and in its terrible |
| M:4.8 | God needs this period of respite. He has not yet come as far as he | thinks. Yet when he is ready to go on, he goes with mighty companions |
| M:17.5 | God. It states in the clearest form possible that the mind which | thinks it believes it has a separate will that can oppose the Will of |

| Tx:6.88 | this is what you must learn. The way to learn it is inherent in the | third step, which brings together the lessons implied in the others |
| Tx:6.89 | in it. The final step will still be taken for you by God, but by the | third step the Holy Spirit has prepared you for God. He is getting |
| Tx:6.91 | The | third step is thus one of protection for your minds, allowing you to |
| Tx:6.95 | The | third step, then, is a statement of what you want to believe and |

| Tx:19.77 | learn still more about this strange devotion, for it contains the | third of the obstacles which peace must flow across. No one can die |
| Tx:23.24 | to take his word for it or be mistaken. This leads directly to the | third preposterous belief that seems to make chaos eternal. For if |
| Tx:23.25 | See how the fear of God is reinforced by this | third principle. Now it becomes impossible to turn to Him for help in |
| W1:43.4 | today, one as early as possible and another as late as possible. The | third may be undertaken at the most convenient and suitable time |

| Tx:3.46 | then permitted man to interpret the body as himself, which, | though depressing, was an attempt to escape from the conflict he had |
| Tx:3.61 | We have already discussed the Last Judgment in some | though insufficient detail. After the Last Judgment there will be no |
| Tx:3.74 | order of reality or a system of thought that is real enough in time, | though not in eternity. All beliefs are real to the believer. |
| Tx:3.79 | else has happened. That is why your Souls are still in peace, even | though your minds are in conflict. You have not yet gone back far |
| Tx:4.25 | could be no better example of the fact that the ego is an idea, | though not a reality-based thought. |
| Tx:4.28 | the ego's thought system must be perceived as painful, even | though this is anything but true. Babies scream in rage if you take |
| Tx:4.28 | Babies scream in rage if you take away a knife or a scissors, even | though they may well harm themselves if you do not. The speed-up has |

| Tx:4.40 | chaos. We have already credited the ego with considerable ingenuity, | though not with creativeness. It should, however, be remembered that |
| Tx:4.97 | is why the mind cannot totally lose the ability to communicate, even | though it may refuse to utilize it on behalf of being. |
| Tx:5.23 | also another way. God did not leave His Children comfortless, even | though they chose to leave Him. The voice they put in their minds was |
| Tx:5.41 | to conceal this part, it is still much stronger than the ego, even | though the ego does not recognize it. The Holy Spirit recognizes it |
| Tx:5.44 | because it introduces meaning. It is, however, below knowledge even | though it can grow towards it. It is possible, with great effort, to |
| Tx:5.48 | neurotic guilt feelings do not help anyone. This distinction is wise | though incomplete. Let us make the distinction a little sharper now. |

| Tx:6.39 | That is its natural talent. The word “knows” is correct here, even | though the ego does not know and is not concerned with being at all. |
| Tx:6.48 | you will not side with it, and the ego feels badly in need of allies | though not of brothers. Perceiving something alien to itself in your |
| Tx:6.57 | process, not in time, but in eternity. God's extending outward, | though not His completeness, is blocked when the Sonship does not |
| Tx:6.70 | teach yourselves wrong. Many thought that I was attacking them, even | though it was quite apparent that I was not. An insane learner learns |
| Tx:6.74 | is insane. The ego's judgment, then, is predetermined by what it is, | though no more so than is any other product of thought. The |
| Tx:7.26 | You must therefore be teaching something else as well, even | though the ego does not know what it is. |
| Tx:7.105 | what you are. Sharing His Will with me is not really open to choice, | though it may seem to be. The whole separation lies in this fallacy. |
| Tx:8.85 | nothing out of what God created. The ego despises weakness, even | though it makes every effort to induce it. The ego wants only what it |

| Tx:8.103 | though impossible, can be made into a very persistent goal, even | though you do not want it. But consider the result of this strange |
| Tx:8.108 | for why certain specific forms of healing are not achieved, even | though the state of healing is. It frequently happens that an |
| Tx:9.12 | ego, too, has a plan of forgiveness because you are asking for one, | though not of the right teacher. The ego's plan, of course, makes no |
| Tx:9.15 | it by now. The ego believes that all functions belong to it, even | though it has no idea what they are. This is more than mere |
| Tx:9.29 | the laws you are obeying work. “The good is what works” is a sound, | though insufficient, statement. Only the good can work. Nothing else |
| Tx:9.31 | at all? If you inspire joy, and others react to you with joy even | though you are not experiencing joy yourself, there must be something |
| Tx:9.36 | giving acceptance and receiving it. In time, the giving comes first, | though they are simultaneous in eternity, where they cannot be |
| Tx:9.48 | of God the meaninglessness of the ego becomes perfectly apparent. | Though it does not understand this, the ego believes that its “enemy” |
| Tx:9.65 | happen did not happen at all. You do not think this mysterious, even | though all the laws of what you awakened to were violated while you |
| Tx:9.100 | die. But you can confuse yourself with things that do. Remember, | though, that to do this is blasphemy, for it means that you are |
| Tx:10.27 | God hides nothing from His Son, even | though His Son would hide himself. Yet the Son of God cannot hide his |

| Tx:11.36 | pursues its goal with fanatic insistence, and its reality testing, | though severely impaired, is completely consistent. |
| Tx:11.42 | must relinquish your investment in death, or you will not see life | though it is all around you. |
| Tx:12.8 | You have recognized the futility of the ego and its offerings, but | though you do not want the ego, you do not look upon the alternative |
| Tx:12.18 | will find this place of truth as you see it in your brothers, for | though they may deceive themselves, like you they long for the |
| Tx:12.25 | this. You could heal and be healed if you did question it. And even | though you know not Heaven, might it not be more desirable than |
| Tx:12.27 | if you follow the ego's dictates, you will react to your brothers as | though they were someone else, and this will surely prevent you from |
| Tx:12.37 | two emotions, yet in your private world you react to each of them as | though it were the other. For love cannot abide in a world apart, |
| Tx:13.5 | Son of God is but the true perception of one aspect of the whole. | Though every aspect is the whole, you cannot know this until you see |
| Tx:13.22 | will attempt to displace it, because they do believe in it. Yet, | though they suffer, they will not look within and let it go. They |

| Tx:14.1 | for knowing Him, you have denied Him and do not recognize Him, | though He is all around you. He cannot be known without His Son, |
| Tx:14.40 | you. His Spirit holds it there for you. God has not left His altar, | though His worshiper placed other gods upon it. The temple still is |
| Tx:14.48 | experienced lack of competition among your thoughts, which, even | though they may conflict, can occur to you together and in great |
| Tx:14.50 | and if it were all of you, no order at all would be possible. Yet | though the order which you impose upon your minds limits the ego, it |
| Tx:14.53 | study form with meaningless content. For their teacher is senseless, | though careful to conceal this fact behind a lot of words which sound |
| Tx:15.92 | But here it is the Holy Spirit's function to use them both, | though not as the ego uses them. This is the season when you would |
| Tx:15.95 | but one mistake. It seems like many, but it is all the same. For | though the ego takes many forms, it is always the same idea. What is |
| Tx:15.104 | seems fearful, for you endowed it with fear and tried to cast it out | though it was part of you. Who can perceive part of himself as |
| Tx:16.14 | is true. But can you really believe that all that has happened, even | though you do not understand it, has not happened? Yet this is your |
| Tx:16.23 | yet, this Self you clearly do not know and do not recognize It even | though It functions. What functions must be there. And it is only if |
| Tx:16.27 | teaching. You have chosen this by your own willingness to teach. | Though you seemed to suffer for it, the joy of teaching will yet be |
| Tx:18.18 | your mind, that seems to be outside. You do not respond to it as | though you made it, nor do you realize that the emotions which the |
| Tx:18.52 | project its guilt, but it will not lose it through projection. And | though it clearly can misperceive the function of the body, it cannot |
| Tx:18.57 | separated from himself except in illusions. This is not his reality, | though he believes it is. Yet this could only be if God were wrong. |
| Tx:19.5 | Yet the difference in how they operate is less apparent, | though it follows directly from the fundamental difference in what |
| Tx:20.32 | himself. In the world of separation, each is appointed separately, | though they are all the same. Yet those who know that they are all |
| Tx:21.1 | The world you see is what you gave it, nothing more than that. But | though it is no more than that, it is not less. Therefore, to you it |
| Tx:22.5 | your haunting fear of lack of meaning in yourself arise? It is as | though you wandered in without a plan of any kind except to wander |
| Tx:22.16 | In truth they are the same. Both bring the same amount of misery, | though each one seems to be the way to lose the misery the other |
| Tx:23.19 | The “laws” of chaos can be brought to light, | though never understood. Chaotic laws are hardly meaningful and |
| Tx:24.5 | All that is ever cherished as a hidden belief, to be defended | though unrecognized, is faith in specialness. This takes many forms |
| Tx:26.12 | is no loss; to think there is, is a mistake. You have no problems, | though you think you have. And yet you could not think so if you saw |
| Tx:26.33 | the infinitely small and senseless maze you still perceive in time, | though it has long since gone. You think you live in what is past. |
| Tx:26.49 | of sickness which applies to all its forms. God's answer is eternal, | though it operates in time where it is needed. Yet because it is of |

| Tx:27.43 | is. Within the world the answers merely raise another question, | though they leave the first unanswered. In the holy instant, you can |

| Tx:2.22 | is the way the mentally ill do employ it. But remember a very early | thought of your own—“Never underestimate the power of denial.” In |
| Tx:2.61 | Implicit in this is the corollary that correction belongs at the | thought level. To repeat an earlier statement and to extend it |

| Tx:2.89 | expressions like “think big” give some recognition to the power of | thought, they still come nowhere near the truth. You do not expect to |
| Tx:2.90 | It is hard to recognize that | thought and belief combine into a power surge that can literally move |
| Tx:2.91 | Given a death wish, a man has no choice except to act upon the | thought or behave contrary to it. He thus chooses only between |
| Tx:2.91 | fear. The other possibility is that he depreciates the power of his | thought. This is the usual psychoanalytic approach. It does allay |
| Tx:2.94 | help me. Miracle working entails a full realization of the power of | thought and real avoidance of miscreation. Otherwise, a miracle will |
| Tx:2.108 | The Last Judgment is generally | thought of as a procedure undertaken by God. Actually it will be |
| Tx:3.35 | related. Knowledge is the result of revelation and induces only | thought. Perception involves the body, even in its most spiritualized |
| Tx:3.57 | is taken as “of a like quality.” God did create the Soul in His own | Thought and of a quality like to His own. There is nothing else. |
| Tx:3.72 | Every system of | thought must have a starting point. It begins with either a making or |
| Tx:3.72 | of belief by which men live. It is a mistake to believe that a | thought system which is based on lies is weak. Nothing made by a |
| Tx:3.73 | can weaken God. The “devil” is a frightening concept, because he is | thought of as extremely powerful and extremely active. He is |
| Tx:3.74 | separation is not symbolic. It is an order of reality or a system of | thought that is real enough in time, though not in eternity. All |
| Tx:3.77 | the belief that you can is the central foundation stone in your | thought system, and all your defenses are used to attack ideas which |
| Tx:3.79 | approach the beginning, you feel the fear of the destruction of your | thought system upon you, as if it were the fear of death. There is no |
| Tx:3.80 | The light will shine from the true Foundation of Life, and your own | thought system will stand corrected. It cannot stand otherwise. You |
| Tx:4.6 | authority problem which, because it accepts the one inconceivable | thought as its premise, can only produce ideas which are |
| Tx:4.7 | Many stand guard over their ideas because they want to protect their | thought systems as they are, and learning means change. Change is |
| Tx:4.8 | profound confusion is possible only if one maintains that the same | thought system can stand on two foundations. Nothing can reach the |
| Tx:4.9 | it. I never attack your egos, but I do try to teach you how their | thought system[s] arose. When I remind you of your true creation, |
| Tx:4.11 | If you are willing to renounce the role of guardian[s] of your | thought system[s] and open [them] to me, I will correct [them] very |
| Tx:4.25 | of the fact that the ego is an idea, though not a reality-based | thought. |
| Tx:4.28 | of recognition that the ego is not the self. Undermining the ego's | thought system must be perceived as painful, even though this is |
| Tx:4.30 | it. This is the meaning of Freud's “reality principle” since Freud | thought of the ego as very weak and deprived, capable of functioning |
| Tx:4.32 | for it. That is why the concept of “getting” arose in the ego's | thought system. All appetites are “getting” mechanisms, representing |
| Tx:4.36 | take is always automatic, because it cannot but be dictated by the | thought system to which the mind adheres. |
| Tx:4.37 | Every | thought system has internal consistency, and this provides the basis |
| Tx:4.39 | anything in another, because they can be understood only within the | thought system of which they are a part. That is why psychologists |
| Tx:4.57 | are not joyous, then know this need not be. In every case you have | thought wrongly about some Soul that God created and are perceiving |
| Tx:4.57 | your ego makes in a darkened glass. Think honestly what you have | thought that God would not have thought and what you have not thought |
| Tx:4.57 | glass. Think honestly what you have thought that God would not have | thought and what you have not thought that God would have you think. |
| Tx:4.57 | have thought that God would not have thought and what you have not | thought that God would have you think. Search sincerely for what you |
| Tx:4.69 | predominance. The ego has every reason to do this according to the | thought system which gave rise to it and which it serves. Sane |
| Tx:4.70 | of discrimination between impulses from God and from the body. Any | thought system which makes this confusion must be insane. Yet this |
| Tx:4.95 | abolish it. The communication system of the ego is based on its own | thought system, as is everything else it dictates. Its communication |
| Tx:5.3 | You are being blessed by every beneficent | thought of any of your brothers anywhere. You should want to bless |
| Tx:5.5 | Healing is an act of | thought by which two minds perceive their oneness and become glad. |
| Tx:5.9 | the blessing of miracle-mindedness. It asks that you may think as I | thought, joining with me in Christ-thinking. |
| Tx:5.30 | for God always. He teaches you how to keep me as the model for your | thought and to behave like me as a result. |
| Tx:5.33 | The Holy Spirit is the idea of healing. Being | thought, the idea gains as it is shared. Being the Call for God, it |
| Tx:5.40 | is merely another term for a split mind. It was not an act, but a | thought. Therefore, the idea of separation can be given away, just as |
| Tx:5.45 | not aware of it. I have saved all your kindnesses and every loving | thought you have had. I have purified them of the errors which hid |
| Tx:5.50 | one, you cannot be limited to the “self” the ego sees. Every loving | thought held in any part of the Sonship belongs to every part. It is |
| Tx:5.56 | Ideas do not leave the mind which | thought them to have a separate being, nor do separate thoughts |
| Tx:5.61 | and you will fear punishment. The ego is quite literally a fearful | thought. |
| Tx:5.67 | although you can believe in them. But you are wrong. The function of | thought comes from God and is in God. As part of His Thought, you |
| Tx:5.67 | The function of thought comes from God and is in God. As part of His | Thought, you cannot think apart from Him. |
| Tx:5.68 | Irrational | thought is a thought disorder. God Himself orders your thought |

| Tx:5.68 | is a thought disorder. God Himself orders your thought because your | thought was created by Him. Guilt feelings are always a sign that you |
| Tx:5.68 | that you believe you can think apart from God and want to. Every | thought disorder is attended by guilt at its inception and maintained |
| Tx:5.68 | Guilt is inescapable for those who believe they order their own | thought and must therefore obey its orders. This makes them feel |
| Tx:5.69 | save the past in purified form only. If you accept the remedy for a | thought disorder, and a remedy whose efficacy is beyond doubt, how |
| Tx:5.70 | to full creation the instant it has done so. Having given up its | thought disorder, the proper ordering of thought becomes quite |
| Tx:5.70 | so. Having given up its thought disorder, the proper ordering of | thought becomes quite apparent. |
| Tx:5.77 | the power to interpret correctly what former generations have | thought and thus release their thoughts from the ability to produce |
| Tx:5.77 | of fact if the word “perish” is properly understood. Every loveless | thought must be undone. Even the word “undone” is fearful to the ego, |
| Tx:5.78 | The ego will not be destroyed because it is part of your | thought, but because it is uncreative and therefore unsharing, it |
| Tx:5.78 | be reinterpreted entirely to release you from fear. The part of your | thought which you have given to the ego will merely return to the |
| Tx:5.83 | with good judgment. Fear distorts thinking and therefore disorders | thought. |
| Tx:5.84 | Freud's system of | thought was extremely ingenious because Freud was extremely |
| Tx:5.84 | may misuse its power. Freud lost much of the potential value of his | thought system, because he did not include himself in it. This is a |
| Tx:5.84 | because the thinker cuts himself off from his thoughts. Freud's | thought was so conflicted that he could not have retained his sanity |
| Tx:5.85 | Voice. The Holy Spirit never changes His Mind. Clarity of | thought cannot occur under conditions of vacillation. Unless a mind |
| Tx:5.85 | perception, because you have denied it as the real foundation of | thought. This is the basis for all delusional systems. |
| Tx:5.88 | himself could not accept this interpretation, but throughout his | thought system, the “threat” of fixation remained and could never be |
| Tx:5.89 | This knowledge plagued Freud's belief in his own | thought system at every turn because he was both an honest man and a |
| Tx:5.90 | that can drown out His? Do you really believe that you can devise a | thought system which can separate you from His? Do you really believe |
| Tx:6.2 | any premise at all, and no one can organize his life without any | thought system. Once he has developed a thought system of any kind, |
| Tx:6.2 | his life without any thought system. Once he has developed a | thought system of any kind, he lives by it and teaches it. |
| Tx:6.3 | because you have been extreme examples of allegiance to your | thought systems and therefore have developed the capacity for |
| Tx:6.22 | only because I do not want you to allow any fear to enter into the | thought system toward which I am guiding you. I do not call for |
| Tx:6.23 | was a complex of behaviors arising out of clearly opposed | thought systems. As such, it [is] the perfect symbol of conflict |
| Tx:6.32 | God created His Sons by extending His | Thought and retaining the extensions of His Thought in His Mind. All |
| Tx:6.32 | Sons by extending His Thought and retaining the extensions of His | Thought in His Mind. All His Thoughts are thus perfectly united |
| Tx:6.45 | lies its primary perceptual error, the foundation of its whole | thought system. |
| Tx:6.54 | You are in an impossible situation only because you | thought it was possible to be in one. You would be in an impossible |
| Tx:6.55 | made them. What would be gained if God proved to you that you have | thought insanely? Can God lose His own certainty? We have frequently |
| Tx:6.57 | blocked when the Sonship does not communicate with Him as one. So He | thought, “My Children sleep and must be awakened.” |
| Tx:6.64 | this crucial concept slip away. It is a real foundation stone of the | thought system I teach and want you to teach. You cannot perform |
| Tx:6.70 | you can teach wrongly and therefore teach yourselves wrong. Many | thought that I was attacking them, even though it was quite apparent |
| Tx:6.71 | What you must understand is that when you do not share a | thought system, you are weakening it. Those who believe in it |
| Tx:6.71 | attack on them. This is because everyone identifies himself with his | thought system, and every thought system centers on what you believe |
| Tx:6.71 | everyone identifies himself with his thought system, and every | thought system centers on what you believe you are. If the center of |
| Tx:6.71 | system centers on what you believe you are. If the center of the | thought system is true, only truth extends from it. But if a lie is |
| Tx:6.74 | by what it is, though no more so than is any other product of | thought. The fundamental change will still occur with the change of |
| Tx:6.75 | The way out of conflict between two opposing | thought systems is clearly to choose one and relinquish the other. If |
| Tx:6.75 | to choose one and relinquish the other. If you identify with your | thought system, and you cannot escape this, and if you accept two |
| Tx:6.75 | thought system, and you cannot escape this, and if you accept two | thought systems which are in complete disagreement, peace of mind is |
| Tx:6.79 | however, more advanced than the first step, which is really only a | thought reversal. The second step is a positive affirmation of what |
| Tx:6.81 | hold this direction, you will be pushing toward the center of your | thought system where the fundamental change will occur. You are only |
| Tx:6.82 | He sorts out the true from the false and teaches you to judge every | thought that you allow to enter your mind in the light of what God |
| Tx:6.86 | a major step toward fundamental change. Yet it is still a lesson in | thought reversal since it implies that there is something you must be |
| Tx:7.2 | created you, the Kingdom could not increase through its own creative | thought. Creation would therefore be limited, and you would not be |
| Tx:7.2 | and you would not be co-creators with God. As God's creative | Thought proceeds from Him to you, so must your creative thought |
| Tx:7.2 | creative Thought proceeds from Him to you, so must your creative | thought proceed from you to your creations. Only in this way can all |
| Tx:7.9 | To heal is the only kind of thinking in this world that resembles the | Thought of God, and because of the elements which they share, can |
| Tx:7.29 | The altar there is the only reality. The altar is perfectly clear in | thought, because it is a reflection of perfect Thought. It sees only |

| Tx:7.53 | one. This is part of the Law of Creation and therefore governs all | thought. |
| Tx:7.55 | do not believe you can do this, you have denied the power of your | thought and thus rendered it powerless in your belief. |
| Tx:7.62 | When you believe what God does not know, your | thought seems to contradict His, and this makes it appear as if you |

| Tx:7.67 | else, but because it is something else, it will attack your | thought system and divide your allegiance. You cannot create in this |
| Tx:7.81 | Perceive any part of the ego's | thought system as wholly insane, wholly delusional, and wholly |
| Tx:7.93 | the fullness of its Creator. Fullness is extension. The ego's whole | thought system blocks extension and thus blocks your only function. |
| Tx:8.22 | why you have believed that when you met someone else, you had | thought that he was someone else. And every holy encounter in which |

| Tx:8.48 | not thinking. God's Will is thought. It cannot be contradicted by | thought. God does not contradict Himself, and His Sons, who are like |
| Tx:8.48 | who are like Him, cannot contradict themselves or Him. Yet their | thought is so powerful that they can even imprison the mind of God's |
| Tx:8.59 | Remember that the Bible says, “The Word (or | thought) was made flesh.” Strictly speaking this is impossible, since |
| Tx:8.59 | merely appear to exist, just as different orders of miracles do. | Thought cannot be made into flesh except by belief, since thought is |
| Tx:8.59 | do. Thought cannot be made into flesh except by belief, since | thought is not physical. Yet thought is communication, for which the |
| Tx:8.59 | made into flesh except by belief, since thought is not physical. Yet | thought is communication, for which the body can be used. This is the |
| Tx:8.66 | You are not limited by the body, and | thought cannot be made flesh. Yet mind can be manifested through the |
| Tx:8.68 | wholeness. The power of wholeness is extension. Do not arrest your | thought in this world, and you will open your mind to creation in God. |
| Tx:8.87 | The Bible enjoins you to be perfect, to heal all errors, to take no | thought of the body as separate, and to accomplish all things in my |
| Tx:8.89 | healing means anything. The re-establishing of meaning in a chaotic | thought system is the only way to heal it. We have said that your |
| Tx:8.108 | same time, however, if he were healed physically, the threat to his | thought system would be considerably more fearful to him than its |
| Tx:9.43 | ask, “Who granted it?” The question is meaningless within the ego's | thought system, because it opens the whole thought system to question. |
| Tx:9.43 | within the ego's thought system, because it opens the whole | thought system to question. |
| Tx:9.44 | therefore, is to deny all knowledge and keep the ego's whole | thought system intact. You cannot retain part of a thought system, |
| Tx:9.44 | the ego's whole thought system intact. You cannot retain part of a | thought system, because it can be questioned only at its foundation. |
| Tx:9.44 | does stand. The Holy Spirit judges against the reality of the ego's | thought system merely because He knows its foundation is not true. |
| Tx:9.78 | of losing this?] Look calmly at the logical conclusion of the ego's | thought system and judge whether its offering is really what you |
| Tx:10.1 | that this must be true. Neither God nor the ego proposes a partial | thought system. Each is internally consistent, but they are |
| Tx:10.2 | premise, which is carefully hidden in the dark cornerstone of its | thought system. And either the ego, which you made, is your father, |
| Tx:10.2 | And either the ego, which you made, is your father, or its whole | thought system will not stand. |
| Tx:10.3 | by extension. The cornerstone of God's creation is you, for His | thought system is light. Remember the rays that are there unseen. The |
| Tx:10.3 | rays that are there unseen. The more you approach the center of His | thought system, the clearer the light becomes. The closer you come to |
| Tx:10.3 | light becomes. The closer you come to [the foundation of] the ego's | thought system, the darker and more obscure becomes the way. Yet even |
| Tx:10.3 | fearlessly with you and hold it up to the foundation of the ego's | thought system bravely. Be willing to judge it with perfect honesty. |
| Tx:10.5 | knowledge, the foundation on which God will help you build again the | thought system which you share with Him. Not one stone you place upon |
| Tx:10.16 | truly want. Every attack is a step away from this, and every healing | thought brings it closer. The Son of God has both Father and Son |
| Tx:10.17 | you accomplish speaks to you of the Fatherhood of God. Every healing | thought which you accept, either from your brother or in your own |
| Tx:10.17 | your own mind, teaches you that you are God's Son. In every hurtful | thought you hold, wherever you perceive it, lies the denial of God's |
| Tx:10.29 | For what is unlike God cannot enter His Mind because it was not His | Thought and therefore does not belong to Him. And your minds must be |
| Tx:10.39 | cannot be dangerous. We are ready to look more closely at the ego's | thought system because together we have the lamp that will dispel it, |
| Tx:10.54 | what it has made real, the ego proceeds to the next step in its | thought system—that error is real, and truth is error. |
| Tx:10.56 | is strong to the insane. For reasoning ends at its beginning, and no | thought system transcends its source. Yet reasoning without meaning |
| Tx:10.58 | for your vigilance. Everything you perceive is a witness to the | thought system you want to be true. Every brother has the power to |
| Tx:10.70 | Every loving | thought that the Son of God ever had is eternal. Those which his mind |
| Tx:10.76 | You do not know the meaning of anything you perceive. Not one | thought you hold is wholly true. The recognition of this is your firm |
| Tx:10.84 | Son of God, who is in no way separate from His Father, whose every | thought is as loving as the Thought of His Father by which He was |
| Tx:10.84 | separate from His Father, whose every thought is as loving as the | Thought of His Father by which He was created. Be not deceived in |
| Tx:11.3 | judgment, it requires no effort at all on your part. Every loving | thought is true. Everything else is an appeal for healing and help. |
| Tx:11.70 | received anything else, it is because you have looked within and | thought you saw the power to give something else within yourself. It |
| Tx:11.81 | nor could His Son receive it. You were redeemed the instant you | thought you had deserted Him. |
| Tx:11.86 | laid in the ground and seem to be no more. Not one of them but has | thought that God is cruel. |
| Tx:12.7 | Most of the time you dismiss it, but you do not dismiss the ego's | thought system. You have seen its results and you still lack faith in |
| Tx:12.16 | and concealed as long as they are hidden is the loving mind that | thought it made them in anger. And the pain in this mind is so |
| Tx:12.17 | which you may fear to uncover. For He will heal every little | thought which you have kept to hurt you and cleanse it of its |
| Tx:13.4 | being in the mind of both and knowing that mind is one. He is a | Thought of God, and God has given Him to you because He has no |
| Tx:13.27 | his Father loves him. And it will seem incredible that he has ever | thought his Father loved him not and looked upon him as condemned. |
| Tx:13.50 | have and give and are everything, and all this has been denied, your | thought system is closed off and wholly separated from the truth. |
| Tx:13.51 | Seeing is always outward. Were your thoughts wholly of you, the | thought system which you made would be forever dark. The thoughts |
| Tx:13.53 | is not indirect, but He must introduce the simple truth into a | thought system which has become so twisted and so complex that you |
| Tx:13.73 | that you can make decisions by yourself or for yourself alone. No | thought of God's Son can be separate or isolated in its effects. |
| Tx:13.87 | what is not there has been removed from the disordered mind that | thought it was. This state, and only this, must you attain with God |
| Tx:14.8 | ask for guilt and will experience it. Protect his purity from every | thought that would steal it away and keep it from his sight. Bring |
| Tx:14.54 | they seem to hold, but put them together and the system of | thought which arises from joining them is incoherent and utterly |
| Tx:14.55 | Him means you are not alone and willing to remember it. Take no | thought for yourself, for no thought you hold is for yourself. If you |
| Tx:14.55 | and willing to remember it. Take no thought for yourself, for no | thought you hold is for yourself. If you would remember your Father, |
| Tx:14.56 | love. Neither his mind nor yours holds more than these two orders of | thought. |
| Tx:15.4 | the ego's teaching is without the fear of death. Yet if death were | thought of merely as an end to pain, would it be feared? We have seen |
| Tx:15.4 | would it be feared? We have seen this strange paradox in the ego's | thought system before, but never so clearly as here. For the ego must |
| Tx:15.12 | Whenever you are tempted to be dispirited by the | thought of how long it would take to change your mind so completely, |
| Tx:15.42 | Every | thought you would keep hidden shuts communication off because you |
| Tx:15.42 | being the acceptance of the single will that governs all | thought. |
| Tx:15.53 | have no need to look without and snatch it guiltily from where you | thought it was. |
| Tx:15.60 | the idea of love in you and unite this idea with the mind that | thought it and could not relinquish it. By holding it within itself, |
| Tx:15.96 | fact that sacrifice gets nothing. Sacrifice is so essential to your | thought system that salvation apart from sacrifice means nothing to |
| Tx:15.99 | than look at it. For if God would demand total sacrifice of you, you | thought it safer to project Him outward and away from you and not be |
| Tx:15.101 | of safety. Do not try longer to keep apart your thoughts and the | Thought that has been given you. When they are brought together and |
| Tx:15.102 | in Who is there already, by recognizing that His Host is One, and no | thought alien to His Oneness can abide with Him there. Love must be |
| Tx:16.3 | Step gently aside and let the healing be done for you. Keep but one | thought in mind and do not lose sight of it, however tempted you may |
| Tx:16.21 | will consider what you have taught and how alien it is to what you | thought you knew, you will be compelled to recognize that your |
| Tx:16.21 | be compelled to recognize that your Teacher came from beyond your | thought system and so could look upon it fairly and perceive it was |
| Tx:16.21 | untrue. And He must have done so from the basis of a very different | thought system and one with nothing in common with yours. For |
| Tx:16.22 | yourself accordingly. Cause and effect are very clear in the ego's | thought system because all your learning has been directed towards |
| Tx:16.52 | religion of the separation and of the total context in which it is | thought to occur. The central theme in its litany to sacrifice is |
| Tx:16.57 | Separation is only the decision not to know yourself. Its whole | thought system is a carefully contrived learning experience designed |
| Tx:16.66 | relationship is really part of you. And you cannot keep part of the | thought system which taught you it was real and understand the |
| Tx:16.66 | the thought system which taught you it was real and understand the | Thought that really knows what you are. You have allowed the Thought |
| Tx:16.66 | the Thought that really knows what you are. You have allowed the | Thought of your reality to enter your minds, and because you invited |
| Tx:17.25 | the same. For you can never choose except between God and the ego. | Thought systems are but true or false, and all their attributes come |
| Tx:17.31 | means if you would be restored to sanity. The insane protect their | thought systems, but they do so insanely. And all their defenses are |
| Tx:17.32 | You have but little difficulty now in realizing that the | thought system which the special relationship protects is but a |
| Tx:17.32 | have looked at it far closer than at many other aspects of the ego's | thought system which you have been more willing to let go. While this |
| Tx:17.33 | operates by giving gifts, and the gift is always a miniature of the | thought system the defense protects, set in a golden frame. The frame |
| Tx:17.34 | imposing and deceptive frame of all the defenses the ego uses. Its | thought system is offered here, surrounded by a frame so heavy and so |
| Tx:17.35 | the gift. Be not deceived by the most superficial aspects of this | thought system, for these aspects enclose the whole, complete in |
| Tx:17.37 | frame, the picture is seen as what it represents. For as the whole | thought system of the ego lies in its gifts, so the whole of Heaven |
| Tx:17.40 | see there, you will recognize as what it is—a picture of what you | thought was real and nothing more. For beyond this picture, you will |
| Tx:17.41 | not a picture but a reality. This is no figured representation of a | thought system, but the Thought Itself. What it represents is there. |
| Tx:17.41 | This is no figured representation of a thought system, but the | Thought Itself. What it represents is there. The frame fades gently, |
| Tx:17.50 | to remind you of all the ways you once sought for satisfaction and | thought you found it. Forget not now the misery you really found, and |
| Tx:17.66 | The | thought of bodies is the sign of faithlessness, for bodies cannot |
| Tx:18.10 | you, so you are. You are not joined together in illusions but in the | Thought so holy and so perfect that illusions cannot remain to darken |
| Tx:18.40 | has gone. It never happened in reality. Only in your minds, which | thought it did, is its undoing needful. |
| Tx:18.60 | The “something” can be anything and anywhere—a sound, a sight, a | thought, a memory, and even a general idea without specific |
| Tx:18.65 | now. Its whole attraction is imaginary and therefore must be | thought of in the past or in the future. |
| Tx:18.73 | itself as the ocean. Think how alone and frightened is this little | thought, this infinitesimal illusion, holding itself apart against |
| Tx:18.75 | seem to be. Each body seems to house a separate mind, a disconnected | thought living alone and in no way joined to the Thought by which it |
| Tx:18.75 | a disconnected thought living alone and in no way joined to the | Thought by which it was created. Each tiny fragment seems to be |
| Tx:18.79 | The | Thought of God surrounds your little kingdom, waiting at the barrier |
| Tx:18.84 | its source. Therefore, it is the tiny part of yourself, the little | thought that seems split off and separate, which the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:18.84 | in God's keeping and needs no guide. Yet this wild and delusional | thought needs help because in its delusions it thinks it is the Son |
| Tx:18.89 | heavy and opaque, impenetrable, and a real foundation for the ego's | thought system. Its thinness and transparency are not apparent until |
| Tx:18.93 | washed in the waters of forgiveness, and cleansed of every evil | thought you had laid upon it. Here there is no attack upon the Son of |
| Tx:19.6 | impossible to attain, for part of it is sought through the body, | thought of as a means for seeking out reality through attack, while |
| Tx:19.6 | This will not harm the body, but it will keep the delusional | thought system in the mind. |
| Tx:19.8 | are always connected, as is truth. Each is united, a complete | thought system, but totally disconnected to each other. Where there |
| Tx:19.16 | being kept in prison or limited in any way except by the mind that | thought it. For it remains joined to its source, which is its jailor |
| Tx:19.21 | indefensible to the ego. The idea of sin is wholly sacrosanct to its | thought system and quite unapproachable except through reverence and |
| Tx:19.79 | that an idea leaves not its source. And death is the result of the | thought we call the ego as surely as life is the result of the |
| Tx:19.79 | the thought we call the ego as surely as life is the result of the | Thought of God. |
| Tx:19.86 | of salvation is carefully guarded by love, preserved from every | thought that would attack it and quietly made ready to fulfill the |
| Tx:19.103 | Christ Who stands beside you. How holy and how beautiful He is! You | thought He sinned because you cast the veil of sin upon Him to hide |
| Tx:20.10 | and hear this carefully, nor think it but a dream—a careless | thought to play with or a toy you would pick up from time to time and |
| Tx:20.23 | asked, and it is to his answer that you would adjust. This one wild | thought, fierce in its arrogance and yet so tiny and so meaningless |
| Tx:20.36 | difficulty but will melt away before you reach it. You need take | thought for nothing, careless of everything except the only purpose |
| Tx:21.3 | did not recognize, or walk unharmed through open doorways which they | thought were closed. And so it is with you. You do not see. Your cues |
| Tx:21.3 | not recognize, but fail to be aware you can go through the doors you | thought were closed but which stand open before unseeing eyes, |
| Tx:21.22 | happen of itself; simply to recognize again the presence of what you | thought you gave away. |
| Tx:21.71 | to attack his brother or turn upon himself as to remember they | thought they had a common cause. |
| Tx:21.84 | Desire what you will, and you will look on it and think it real. No | thought but has the power to release or kill. And none can leave the |
| Tx:21.85 | final proof he valued the inconstant more than constancy. Surely he | thought he wanted happiness. Yet he did not desire it because it was |
| Tx:22.11 | you can understand. He is not nurtured by the “something else” you | thought was you. He was not given there, nor was received by anything |
| Tx:22.14 | that instant brought—the recognition that the “something else” you | thought was you is an illusion. And truth came instantly to show you |
| Tx:22.29 | The introduction of reason into the ego's | thought system is the beginning of its undoing. For reason and the |
| Tx:22.30 | correction. For reason sees through errors, telling you what you | thought was real is not. Reason can see the difference between sin |
| Tx:22.30 | because it wants correction. Therefore, it tells you what you | thought was uncorrectable can be corrected, and thus it must have |
| Tx:22.50 | and so easily that you must be convinced, in spite of what you | thought it was, that it is nothing. If you forgive each other, this |
| Tx:22.58 | is released as he beholds his savior in place of the attacker who he | thought was there. Through this releasing is the world released. This |
| Tx:22.64 | and His Son. From loving minds there is no separation. And every | thought in one brings gladness to the other because they are the |
| Tx:22.64 | because they are the same. Joy is unlimited because each shining | thought of love extends its being and creates more of itself. There |
| Tx:22.64 | more of itself. There is no difference anywhere in it, for every | thought is like itself. |
| Tx:23.6 | forgiveness will the world sparkle and shine and everything you once | thought sinful now will be reinterpreted as part of Heaven. How |
| Tx:23.39 | that it seems to be a logical conclusion—a valid step in ordered | thought. The steps to chaos do follow neatly from their starting |
| Tx:23.41 | him still. For no one thinks of murder and escapes the guilt the | thought entails. If the intent is death, what matter the form it |
| Tx:24.19 | but only friend to what is real in you. Not one attack you | thought you made on him has taken from him the gift that God would |
| Tx:24.31 | of peace in perfect safety and without the heat and malice of one | thought of specialness to mar your rest. Forgive the Holy One the |
| Tx:24.39 | beheld some sin within your brother and have rejoiced at what you | thought was there. Your specialness seemed safe because of it. And |
| Tx:24.45 | and blessing all the way. His love for God replaces all the fear you | thought you saw within yourself. His holiness shows you Himself in |
| Tx:24.51 | has He failed to lay before you lovingly as yours forever. And no | thought within His Mind is absent from your own. It is His Will you |
| Tx:24.59 | fully justified, you have pursued this goal with vigilance you never | thought to yield and effort that you never thought to cease. And all |
| Tx:24.59 | with vigilance you never thought to yield and effort that you never | thought to cease. And all this grim determination was for this—you |
| Tx:24.63 | returns to you. All of the love and care, the strong protection, the | thought by day and night, the deep concern, the powerful conviction |
| Tx:24.68 | to anyone who still retains one unlearned lesson in his memory, one | thought with purpose still uncertain, or one wish with a divided aim. |
| Tx:25.1 | not, that He may call to them to come to Him and see Him where they | thought their bodies were. Then will their bodies melt away that they |
| Tx:25.18 | masterpiece. Look at its loveliness, and understand the Mind that | thought it, not in flesh and bones, but in a frame as lovely as |
| Tx:25.28 | of what is given him, then will he see each situation that he | thought before was means to justify his anger turned to an event |
| Tx:25.34 | and light. And in this widening world of light, the darkness they | thought was there is pushed away until it is but distant shadows, far |
| Tx:25.52 | that either God is mad or is this world a place of madness. Not one | Thought of His makes any sense at all within this world. And nothing |
| Tx:25.52 | the truth. If one belief so deeply valued here were true, then every | Thought God ever had is an illusion. And if but one Thought of His is |
| Tx:25.52 | true, then every Thought God ever had is an illusion. And if but one | Thought of His is true, then all beliefs the world gives any meaning |
| Tx:25.53 | Son do not think differently. And it is the agreement of their | thought that makes the Son a co-creator with the mind Whose Thought |
| Tx:25.53 | of their thought that makes the Son a co-creator with the mind Whose | Thought created him. And if he chooses to believe one thought opposed |
| Tx:25.53 | the mind Whose Thought created him. And if he chooses to believe one | thought opposed to truth, he has decided he is not his Father's Son |
| Tx:25.57 | he has seen before and recognizes as the world in which he lives and | thought he understood before. |
| Tx:26.19 | that cannot be immediately grasped. There is a borderland of | thought which stands between this world and Heaven. It is not a |
| Tx:26.19 | This borderland is just beyond the gate of Heaven. Here is every | thought made pure and wholly simple. Here is sin denied and |
| Tx:26.35 | Yet in each unforgiving act or | thought, in every judgment, and in all belief in sin, is that one |
| Tx:26.53 | the joy this world denies to every aspect of God's Son where sin was | thought to rule. Perhaps you do not see the role forgiveness plays in |
| Tx:26.72 | effects without a cause? And who could fear effects unless he | thought they had been caused and judged disastrous now? Belief in sin |
| Tx:27.7 | for this world. Its only purpose is to prove guilt real. No worldly | thought or act or feeling has a motivation other than this one. These |
| Tx:27.25 | self perception must extend, and do not overlook the fact that every | thought extends because that is its purpose, being what it really is. |
| Tx:27.30 | you, for he stands for what is meaningless. He represents a double | thought, where half is canceled out by the remaining half. Yet even |
| Tx:27.31 | out because it symbolized a contradiction which canceled out the | thought it represents. And thus the picture has no cause at all. Who |
| Tx:27.49 | release. And happily your brother will perceive the many friends he | thought were enemies. |
| Tx:27.51 | Your healing will extend and will be brought to problems that you | thought were not your own. And it will also be apparent that your |
| Tx:27.82 | the Son of God remembered not to laugh. In his forgetting did the | thought become a serious idea and possible of both accomplishment and |
| Tx:27.83 | ending at its cause. The world you see depicts exactly what you | thought you did. Except that now you think that what you did is being |
| Tx:27.83 | think that what you did is being done to you. The guilt for what you | thought is being placed outside yourself and on a guilty world which |
| Tx:28.1 | long ago. The thoughts that made it are no longer in the mind that | thought of them and loved them for a little while. The miracle but |
| Tx:28.8 | in your mind. Its consequences will indeed seem new because you | thought that you remembered not their Cause. Yet was It never absent |
| Tx:28.26 | lesson it was sent to teach. The lesson is the mind was sick that | thought the body could be sick; projecting out its guilt caused |
| Tx:29.3 | on which you both agreed to keep intact. And violating this was | thought to be a breach of treaty not to be allowed. |
| Tx:29.18 | a thing with power in itself. As something, it can be perceived and | thought to feel and act and hold you in its grasp as prisoner to |
| Tx:29.32 | is there. The peace in you can but be found in him. And every | thought of love you offer him but brings you nearer to your wakening |
| Tx:29.35 | goal that lies beyond forgiveness, you would not keep hold on any | thought, however light the touch of evil on it may appear to be. For |
| Tx:29.54 | thus perceived as real and seen outside the mind. Yet it is still a | thought and cannot leave the mind that is its source. Nor is its form |
| Tx:29.55 | your brother from yourself. A dark and fearful purpose, yet a | thought without the power to change one blade of grass from something |
| Tx:29.65 | are childish dreams. The toys have turned against the child who | thought he made them real. Yet can a dream attack? Or can a toy grow |
| Tx:30.1 | fear. They are not new to you, but they are more ideas than rules of | thought to you as yet. So now we need to practice them awhile, until |
| Tx:30.33 | created with your glad consent, as you would have it be. And not one | Thought that God has ever had but waited for your blessing to be |
| Tx:30.42 | form that would content you not, but in the whole completely lovely | Thought God holds of you. |
| Tx:30.43 | changelessly. For thoughts endure as long as does the mind that | thought of them. And in the Mind of God there is no ending nor a time |
| Tx:30.43 | thoughts you think are in your mind, as you are in the mind Which | thought of you. And so there are no separate parts in what exists |
| Tx:30.44 | you are sometimes aware of them and sometimes not. An unremembered | thought is born again to you when it returns to your awareness. Yet |
| Tx:30.44 | you forgot it. It was always there, but you were unaware of it. The | Thought God holds of you is perfectly unchanged by your forgetting. |
| Tx:30.45 | They await not birth. They wait for welcome and remembering. The | Thought God holds of you is like a star, unchangeable in an eternal |
| Tx:30.47 | Beyond all idols is the | Thought God holds of you. Completely unaffected by the turmoil and |
| Tx:30.47 | the myriad of forms that fear can take; quite undisturbed, the | Thought God holds of you remains exactly as it always was. Surrounded |
| Tx:30.47 | of its changelessness and of its rest in its eternal home, the | Thought God holds of you has never left the mind of its Creator Whom |
| Tx:30.48 | Where could the | Thought God holds of you exist but where you are? Is your reality a |
| Tx:30.48 | but one. Nor can you be aware of more than one. An idol or the | Thought God holds of you is your reality. Forget not, then, that |
| Tx:30.50 | his “control” of what surrounds him. And he is afraid because he | thought the rules protected him. Now must he learn the boxes and the |
| Tx:30.50 | and unsafe. He was mistaken. He misunderstood what made him safe and | thought that it had left. |
| Tx:30.51 | seems to break the rules you set for it. It never was the thing you | thought. It must appear to break your rules for safety, since the |
| Tx:30.58 | Here, it is | thought that understanding is acquired by attack. There, it is clear |
| Tx:30.69 | lies in those whose hands are joined. Until they joined, they | thought He was their enemy. But when they joined and shared a |
| Tx:30.86 | purpose for the one who gains and him who loses. There could be no | thought of sacrifice apart from this idea. And it is this idea of |
| Tx:30.87 | They have no purpose. And what they are for cannot be seen. In any | thought of loss, there is no meaning. No one has agreed with you on |
| Tx:30.89 | you are deceived. For everything you see will change, and yet you | thought it real before, and now you think it real again. Reality is |
| Tx:31.20 | Then let us wait an instant and be still, forgetting everything we | thought we heard; remembering how much we do not know. This brother |
| Tx:31.22 | Be very still an instant. Come without all | thought of what you ever learned before and put aside all images you |
| Tx:31.22 | opposition or intent. There will be no attack upon the things you | thought were precious and in need of care. There will be no assault |
| Tx:31.49 | with hatred and distortions born of fear. What is a concept but a | thought to which its maker gives a meaning of his own? Concepts |
| Tx:31.49 | in its shadow, growing in its ways, and finally “maturing” in its | thought. They are ideas of idols painted with the brushes of the |
| W1:4.3 | your thoughts for application of the idea for today, identify each | thought by the central figure or event it contains. For example: |
| W1:4.4 | This | thought about _____ does not mean anything. It is like the things I |
| W1:4.5 | You can also use the idea for a particular | thought which you recognize as harmful. This practice is useful, but |
| W1:6.3 | as before, and the application of the idea to each upsetting | thought uncovered in the search. |
| W1:8.2 | The only wholly true | thought one can hold about the past is that it is not here. To think |
| W1:8.4 | is easier to recognize that, no matter how vividly you may picture a | thought, you are not seeing anything. With as little investment as |
| W1:10.7 | This | thought about _____ does not mean anything. That thought about _____ |
| W1:10.7 | This thought about _____ does not mean anything. That | thought about _____ does not mean anything. |
| W1:10.8 | Today's idea can obviously serve for any | thought that distresses you at any time. In addition, five practice |
| W1:13.8 | may take, remind yourself that you are really afraid of such a | thought because of the “vengeance” of the “enemy.” You are not |
| W1:16.2 | to the perception of a whole world can hardly be called idle. Every | thought you have contributes to truth or to illusion; either it |
| W1:16.3 | never being idle, salvation requires that you recognize that every | thought you have brings either peace or war, either love or fear. A |
| W1:16.3 | love or fear. A neutral result is impossible because a neutral | thought is impossible. There is such a temptation to dismiss fear |
| W1:16.4 | so, with eyes closed, and actively seek not to overlook any “little” | thought which tends to elude the search. This is quite difficult |
| W1:16.4 | it is still hard for you not to make artificial distinctions. Every | thought that occurs to you, regardless of the quality which you |
| W1:16.6 | This | thought about _____ is not a neutral thought. That thought about |

| W1:16.6 | is not a neutral thought. That thought about _____ is not a neutral | thought. |
| W1:16.7 | As usual, use today's idea whenever you are aware of a particular | thought which arouses uneasiness. The following form is suggested for |
| W1:16.8 | This | thought about _____ is not a neutral thought, because I have no |
| W1:16.8 | This thought about _____ is not a neutral | thought, because I have no neutral thoughts. |
| W1:17.1 | things because you have no neutral thoughts. It is always the | thought that comes first, despite the temptation to believe that it |
| W1:19.4 | I am not alone in experiencing the effects of this | thought about ___. |
| W1:23.1 | everything else is meaningless. But this way cannot fail. Every | thought you have makes up some segment of the world you see. It is |
| W1:23.5 | The idea for today introduces the | thought that you are not trapped in the world you see, because its |
| W1:23.8 | Hold each attack | thought in mind as you say this, and then dismiss that thought and go |
| W1:23.8 | each attack thought in mind as you say this, and then dismiss that | thought and go on to the next. |
| W1:25.4 | you can make any sense out of the exercises for today, one more | thought is necessary. At the most superficial levels, you do |
| W1:26.3 | The idea for today introduces the | thought that you always attack yourself. If attack thoughts must |
| W1:26.14 | That | thought is an attack upon myself. |
| W1:31.3 | for a moment and then replaced by the next. Try not to establish any | thought of hierarchy among them. Watch them come and go as |
| W1:32.2 | you see in your mind. In today's exercises, try to introduce the | thought that both are in your own imagination. |
| W1:39.8 | undue emphasis on any one in particular, search your mind for every | thought that stands between you and your salvation. Apply the idea |
| W1:41.2 | sorrow and pain and fear and loss because it will heal the mind that | thought these things were real and suffered out of its allegiance to |
| W1:42.7 | Any | thought that is clearly related to the idea is suitable. You may, in |
| W1:42.7 | to mind. If such interferences occur, open your eyes and repeat the | thought once more while looking slowly about; close your eyes, repeat |
| W1:42.9 | thoughts together and teaching you that we are studying a unified | thought system in which nothing is lacking that is needed, and |
| W1:43.10 | Or any | thought related more or less directly to today's idea is suitable. |
| W1:45.2 | He shares His with you. They are the same thoughts because they are | thought by the same Mind. To share is to make alike or to make one. |
| W1:45.3 | are. They must still be there because they cannot have left. What is | thought by the Mind of God is eternal, being part of creation. |
| W1:45.9 | which you have cluttered up your mind are the thoughts which you | thought with God in the beginning. They are there in your mind now, |
| W1:45.10 | Everything that you have | thought since then will change, but the foundation on which they rest |
| W1:R1.6 | first fifty of the ideas we have covered and the cohesiveness of the | thought system to which they are leading you. |
| W1:51.4 | judged it amiss? What I see is the projection of my own errors of | thought. I do not understand what I see because it is not |
| W1:51.6 | I see by assigning this role to it. I have done this to defend a | thought system which has hurt me and which I no longer want. I am |
| W1:54.3 | what I think. If I did not think, I would not exist, because life is | thought. Let me look on the world I see as the representation of my |
| W1:57.3 | make of him. He is where God would have him be, and not where I | thought to hold him prisoner. |
| W1:61.7 | the idea to yourself if your mind wanders away from the central | thought. |
| W1:63.3 | We will begin the day by acknowledging it and close the day with the | thought of it in our awareness. And throughout the day, we will |
| W1:65.6 | thoughts related to the idea for today. Rather, try to uncover each | thought that arises which would interfere with it. Note each one as |
| W1:65.7 | This | thought reflects a goal that is preventing me from accepting my only |
| W1:68.11 | a quick application of today's idea in this form, whenever any | thought of grievance arises against anyone, physically present or not: |
| W1:69.6 | After you have | thought about the importance of what you are trying to do for |
| W1:69.8 | that you are at last joining your will to God's. Try to keep the | thought clearly in mind that what you undertake with God must |
| W1:74.1 | The idea for today can be regarded as the central | thought toward which all our exercises are directed. God's is the |
| W1:75.15 | of the real world which has come to replace the unforgiven world you | thought was real. |
| W1:76.11 | Hear Him Who tells you this, and realize how foolish are the laws you | thought upheld the world you thought you saw. Then listen further. He |
| W1:76.11 | realize how foolish are the laws you thought upheld the world you | thought you saw. Then listen further. He will tell you more. About |
| W1:78.11 | their place. The world and Heaven join in thanking you, for not one | thought of God but must rejoice as you are saved and all the world |
| W1:91.1 | repeating and frequent repeating. It is a central idea in your new | thought system and the perception which it produces. The miracle is |
| W1:92.2 | the body's brain can think. If you but understood the nature of | thought, you could but laugh at this insane idea. It is as if you |
| W1:92.2 | of thought, you could but laugh at this insane idea. It is as if you | thought you held the match that lights the sun and gives it all its |
| W1:93.7 | Salvation requires the acceptance of but one | thought—you are as God created you, not what you made of yourself. |
| W1:94.1 | one statement which makes all forms of temptation powerless; the one | thought which renders the ego silent and entirely undone. You are as |
| W1:94.11 | a giant stride toward your release and a milestone in learning the | thought system which this course sets forth. |
| W1:96.8 | in your mind and offers it the way to peace. Salvation is a | thought you share with God, because His Voice accepted it for you and |
| W1:96.9 | We will attempt today to find this | thought, whose presence in your mind is guaranteed by Him Who speaks |
| W1:99.1 | or different from the Will of God. Thus do both terms imply the | thought of the impossible which has occurred, resulting in a state of |
| W1:99.4 | What joins the separated mind and thoughts with Mind and | thought which are forever one? What plan could hold the truth |
| W1:99.4 | they are undone without attack and with no touch of pain? What but a | thought of God could be this plan by which the never done is |
| W1:99.6 | This is the | thought which brings illusions to the truth, and sees them as |
| W1:99.6 | appearances behind which is the changeless and the sure. This is the | thought which saves and which forgives, because it lays no faith in |
| W1:99.6 | in what is not created by the only Source it knows. This is the | thought whose function is to save by giving you its function as your |
| W1:99.9 | you. All the world of pain is not His Will. Forgive yourself the | thought He wanted this for you. Then let the thought with which He |
| W1:99.9 | Forgive yourself the thought He wanted this for you. Then let the | thought with which He has replaced all your mistakes enter the |
| W1:99.9 | all your mistakes enter the darkened places of your mind which | thought the thoughts that never were His Will. |
| W1:99.11 | Practice His | thought today, and let His Light seek out and lighten up all darkened |
| W1:100.8 | Begin the exercises with the | thought today's idea contains. Then realize your part is to be happy. |
| W1:100.10 | upon in place of Him Who waits that you may look on Him? What little | thought has power to hold you back? What foolish goal can keep you |
| W1:101.6 | There is no sin. We practice with this | thought as often as we can today because it is the basis for today's |
| W1:104.1 | Today's idea continues with the | thought that joy and peace are not but idle dreams. They are your |
| W1:107.10 | made of flesh and blood and bone but were created by the self-same | thought which gave the gift of life to Him as well. He is your |
| W1:108.1 | which is wholly true? Even that one will disappear because the | Thought behind it will appear instead, to take its place. And now we |
| W1:108.4 | Here are both giving and receiving seen as different aspects of one | Thought Whose truth does not depend on which is seen as first, nor |
| W1:108.4 | place. Here it is understood that both occur together, that the | thought remain complete. And in this understanding is the base on |
| W1:108.4 | are perceived from the same frame of reference which unifies this | thought. |
| W1:108.5 | One | Thought, completely unified, will serve to unify all thought. This is |
| W1:108.5 | One Thought, completely unified, will serve to unify all | thought. This is the same as saying one correction will suffice for |
| W1:108.6 | proved it always works in every circumstance where it is tried, the | thought behind it can be generalized to other areas of doubt and |
| W1:108.6 | vision. And from there it will extend and finally arrive at the one | thought Which underlies them all. |
| W1:109.1 | although we seem to look on danger and on sorrow. And we have the | thought that will answer our asking with what we request. |
| W1:109.2 | “I rest in God.” This | thought will bring to you the rest and quiet, peace and stillness, |
| W1:109.2 | and the safety and the happiness you seek. “I rest in God.” This | thought has power to wake the sleeping truth in you, whose vision |
| W1:109.2 | who ever came and yet will come to linger for a while. Here is the | thought in which the Son of God is born again, to recognize himself. |
| W1:109.3 | “I rest in God.” Completely undismayed this | thought will carry you through storms and strife, past misery and |
| W1:109.11 | we give today. We give to those unborn and those passed by, to every | Thought of God, and to the Mind in Which these Thoughts were born and |
| W1:110.1 | We will repeat today's idea from time to time. For this one | thought would be enough to save you and the world if you believed |
| W1:110.3 | this has not occurred if you remain as God created you. You need no | thought but just this one to let redemption come to light the world |
| W1:110.4 | In this one | thought is all the past undone; the present saved to quietly extend |
| W1:R3.11 | silence and in peace. Then turn to other things, but try to keep the | thought with you and let it serve to help you keep your peace |
| W1:R3.13 | Each day's review assignment will conclude with a restatement of the | thought to use each hour and the one to be applied on each half hour |
| W1:123.1 | We have come to gentler pathways and to smoother roads. There is no | thought of turning back and no implacable resistance to the truth. A |
| W1:123.2 | in the dark alone. Be grateful He has saved you from the self you | thought you made to take the place of Him and His creation. Give Him |
| W1:124.1 | with God and with the universe, we go our way rejoicing, with the | thought that God Himself goes everywhere with us. |
| W1:124.6 | can ever be denied to those who know that they are one with God. No | thought of theirs but has the power to heal all forms of suffering in |
| W1:124.8 | Sometime today, whenever it seems best, devote a half an hour to the | thought that you are one with God. This is our first attempt at an |
| W1:124.10 | within your mind and waiting to be found. You will remember then the | thought to which you gave this half an hour, thankfully aware no time |
| W1:126.1 | alien to the ego and the thinking of the world, is crucial to the | thought reversal which this course will bring about. If you believed |
| W1:126.9 | twice today to the attempt to understand today's idea. It is the | thought by which forgiveness takes its proper place in your |
| W1:126.9 | forgiveness takes its proper place in your priorities. It is the | thought that will release your mind from every bar to what |
| W1:127.10 | its blessing upon all who come to learn to cast aside the world they | thought was made in hate to be love's enemy. Now are they all made |
| W1:128.1 | way, nor anything at all that serves to give you joy. Believe this | thought, and you are saved from years of misery, from countless |
| W1:128.1 | that turn to bitter ashes of despair. No one but must accept this | thought as true, if he would leave this world behind and soar beyond |
| W1:128.5 | Today we practice letting go all | thought of values we have given to the world. We leave it free of |
| W1:129.1 | This is the | thought which follows from the one we practiced yesterday. You cannot |
| W1:129.2 | world. Perhaps you will concede there is no loss in letting go all | thought of value here. The world you see is merciless indeed, |
| W1:130.7 | today in thanks and gratitude we gladly give five minutes to the | thought which ends all compromise and doubt and go beyond them all as |
| W1:131.4 | free to choose a goal that lies beyond the world and every worldly | thought and one which comes to you from an idea relinquished yet |
| W1:131.13 | I ask to see a different world and think a different kind of | thought from those I made. The world I seek I did not make alone. The |
| W1:132.2 | his mind, and all his thoughts change with it. Now the source of | thought has shifted, for to change your mind means you have changed |
| W1:132.2 | means you have changed the source of all ideas you think or ever | thought or yet will think. |
| W1:132.3 | You free the past from what you | thought before. You free the future from all ancient thoughts of |
| W1:132.4 | beliefs. Death strikes it everywhere because you hold the bitter | thought of death within your mind. The world is nothing in itself. |
| W1:132.7 | There is no world! This is the central | thought the course attempts to teach. Not everyone is ready to accept |
| W1:132.9 | your own imagining, then you can loose it from all things you ever | thought it was by merely changing all the thoughts that gave it these |
| W1:132.11 | not their source, and you maintain the world within your mind in | thought. |
| W1:132.12 | God's creation is unlike the world in every way. And as it was His | thought by which you were created, so it is your thoughts which made |
| W1:132.14 | There is no world because it is a | thought apart from God and made to separate the Father and the Son |
| W1:132.17 | I who remain as God created me would loose the world from all I | thought it was. For I am real because the world is not, and I would |
| W1:132.21 | I loose the world from all I | thought it was and choose my own reality instead. |
| W1:133.17 | difficult decisions facing you, be quick to answer with this simple | thought: |
| W1:134.11 | He has been gently wakened from his dream by understanding what he | thought he saw was never there. And now he cannot feel that all |
| W1:134.12 | fight to save himself. He does not have to kill the dragons which he | thought pursued him. Nor need he erect the heavy walls of stone and |
| W1:134.12 | him. Nor need he erect the heavy walls of stone and iron doors he | thought would make him safe. He can remove the ponderous and useless |
| W1:134.13 | nor provide a guide to teach you its beneficence. There is no | thought in all the world which leads to any understanding of the laws |
| W1:134.13 | which leads to any understanding of the laws it follows nor the | thought which it reflects. It is as alien to the world as is your own |
| W1:134.17 | from all ideas of sin. Briefly consider all the evil things you | thought of him, and each time ask yourself “Would I condemn myself |
| W1:135.1 | Who would defend himself unless he | thought he was attacked, that the attack is real, and that his own |
| W1:135.23 | minutes twice today, we rest from senseless planning and from every | thought which blocks the truth from entering our minds. Today we will |
| W1:135.25 | to make, you will be told of them. They may not be the plans you | thought were needed nor indeed the answers to the problems which you |
| W1:135.25 | thought were needed nor indeed the answers to the problems which you | thought confronted you. But they are answers to another kind of |
| W1:135.26 | the light and joy of simple truth, you will but wonder why you ever | thought that you must be defended from release. Heaven asks nothing. |
| W1:136.9 | it. Thus is your “true” identity preserved and the strange, haunting | thought that you might be something beyond this little pile of dust |
| W1:136.12 | His Will. The universe remains unheeding of the laws by which you | thought to govern it. And Heaven has not bowed to hell, nor life to |
| W1:137.1 | Today's idea remains the central | thought on which salvation rests. For healing is the opposite of all |
| W1:137.16 | every hour of the day slips by, remembering our function with this | thought: |
| W1:140.6 | This is the | thought that cures. It does not make distinctions among unrealities. |
| W1:140.6 | to truth which cannot fail to heal and heal forever. It is not a | thought which judges an illusion by its size, its seeming gravity, or |
| W1:R4.4 | the truth of what you are and what your Father is. It is this | thought by which the Father gave creation to the Son, establishing |
| W1:R4.4 | the Son, establishing the Son as co-creator with Himself. It is this | thought which fully guarantees salvation to the Son. For in his mind |
| W1:R4.4 | dwell but those his Father shares. Lack of forgiveness blocks this | thought from his awareness. Yet it is forever true. |
| W1:R4.7 | mind and clear it of all thoughts that would deceive, and let this | thought alone engage it fully and remove the rest: |
| W1:R4.9 | Five minutes with this | thought will be enough to set the day along the lines which God |
| W1:R4.11 | Each hour of the day bring to your mind the | thought with which the day began and spend a quiet moment with it. |
| W1:R4.12 | practicing, as we review, we close as we began, repeating first the | thought that made the day a special time of blessing and of happiness |
| W1:146.2 | [132] I loose the world from all I | thought it was. |
| W1:151.9 | for He bears witness to your beautiful creation and the Mind Whose | thought created your reality. What can the body mean to Him Who knows |
| W1:151.13 | We introduce these times with but a single, slow repeating of the | thought with which the day begins. And then we watch our thoughts, |
| W1:151.13 | to Him Who sees the elements of truth in them. Let Him evaluate each | thought that comes to mind, remove the elements of dreams, and give |
| W1:151.14 | God wills His Son as proof of His eternal Love. And as each | thought is thus transformed, it takes on healing power from the Mind |
| W1:151.14 | of fantasy are gone, and what remains is unified into a perfect | thought that offers its perfection everywhere. |
| W1:152.3 | Truth cannot have an opposite. This cannot be too often said and | thought about. For if what is not true is true as well as what is |
| W1:153.9 | we need no defense because we are created unassailable, without all | thought or wish or dream in which attack has any meaning. Now we |
| W1:153.12 | Salvation can be | thought of as a game that happy children play. It was designed by One |
| W1:153.15 | a while. We will begin each day by giving our attention to the daily | thought as long as possible. Five minutes now becomes the least we |
| W1:155.14 | name and His own, which are the same, we practice gladly with this | thought today: |
| W1:156.1 | Today's idea but states the simple truth that makes the | thought of sin impossible. It promises there is no cause for guilt, |
| W1:156.1 | being causeless it does not exist. It follows surely from the basic | thought so often mentioned in the text—ideas leave not their |
| W1:156.6 | is it gone, because its quaint absurdity is seen. It is a foolish | thought, a silly dream, not frightening, ridiculous perhaps, but who |
| W1:156.7 | Yet you have wasted many, many years on just this foolish | thought. The past is gone with all its fantasies. They keep you bound |
| W1:160.3 | No one would let himself be dispossessed so needlessly unless he | thought there was another home more suited to his tastes. |
| W1:160.5 | I leave my home to one more like me than myself and give him all I | thought belonged to me.” Now is he exiled of necessity, not knowing |
| W1:160.6 | his home his Self remains. It asked no stranger in and took no alien | thought to be Itself. And It will call Its own unto Itself, in |
| W1:161.6 | Bodies attack but minds do not. This | thought is surely reminiscent of our text, where it is often |
| W1:162.1 | This single | thought, held firmly in the mind, would save the world. From time to |
| W1:162.2 | honored as it is. There is no dream these words will not dispel, no | thought of sin, and no illusion that the dream contains that will not |
| W1:163.1 | Death is a | thought which takes on many forms, often unrecognized. It may appear |
| W1:163.2 | the guilty, and the lord of all illusions and deceptions, does the | thought of death seem mighty. For it seems to hold all living things |
| W1:163.6 | position which we must accept if we be sane; what contradicts one | thought entirely cannot be true unless its opposite is proven false. |
| W1:164.4 | heart and have not lost. There is a sense of holiness in you the | thought of sin has never touched. All this today you will remember. |
| W1:165.2 | The | Thought of God created you. It left you not, nor have you ever been |
| W1:165.2 | with It, and everything is one with you because It left you not. The | Thought of God protects you, cares for you, makes soft your resting |
| W1:165.2 | love. Eternity and everlasting life shine in your mind because the | Thought of God has left you not and still abides with you. |
| W1:165.5 | of Christ; your mind has come to lay aside denial and accept the | Thought of God as its inheritance. |
| W1:165.7 | justified. Your doubts are meaningless, for God is certain. And the | Thought of Him is never absent. Sureness must abide within you who |
| W1:165.7 | beyond our every doubt. His love remains beyond our every fear. The | thought of Him is still beyond all dreams and in our minds according |
| W1:166.9 | feel that you are not alone. You even think the miserable self you | thought was you may not be your identity. Perhaps God's Word is truer |
| W1:166.11 | “It is not so.” He points to all the gifts you have each time the | thought of poverty oppresses you and speaks of His companionship when |
| W1:167.3 | Yet it is but an idea, irrelevant to what is seen as physical. A | thought is in the mind. It can be then applied as mind directs it. |
| W1:167.4 | Death is the | thought that you are separate from your Creator. It is the belief |
| W1:167.8 | gives not nor make conditions which He does not share with them. The | thought of death is not the opposite to thoughts of life. Forever |
| W1:167.10 | we let imagined opposites to life abide even an instant where the | thought of life eternal has been set by God Himself. |
| W1:169.6 | and future cannot be conceived. It lies beyond salvation—past all | thought of time, forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. The Son of |
| W1:169.11 | end in time, for grace foreshadows Heaven yet does not replace the | thought of time but for a little while. The interval suffices. It is |
| W1:170.4 | that you attack. Yet your defense sets up an enemy within—an alien | thought at war with you, depriving you of peace, splitting your mind |
| W1:170.10 | fear of God Himself. Here is the basic premise which enthrones the | thought of fear as god. For fear is loved by those who worship it, |
| W1:R5.4 | This is the | thought which should precede the thoughts that we review. Each one |
| W1:R5.4 | thoughts that we review. Each one but clarifies some aspect of this | thought or helps it be more meaningful, more personal and true, and |
| W1:R5.7 | us, and teach us, step by step, how to return to the eternal Self we | thought we lost. |
| W1:R5.14 | this we start and end each period of practice time. And with this | thought we sleep, to waken once again with these same words upon our |
| W1:R5.14 | again with these same words upon our lips to greet another day. No | thought that we review but we surround with it and use the thoughts |
| W1:178.2 | [165] Let not my mind deny the | thought of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:181.4 | And you have also been dismayed by the depressing and restricting | thought that, even if you should succeed, you will inevitably lose |
| W1:183.2 | out their wings to keep you safe and shelter you from every worldly | thought that would intrude upon your holiness. |
| W1:183.7 | we say today's idea but once. And then God's Name becomes our only | thought, our only word, the only thing that occupies our minds, the |
| W1:183.11 | still, and will forever give. He calls on Him to let all things he | thought he made be nameless now, and in their place the holy Name of |
| W1:184.9 | do not stand for anything at all, and in your practicing, it is this | thought that will release you from them. They become but means by |
| W1:186.1 | will one day take all arrogance away from every mind. Here is the | thought of true humility which holds no function as your own but that |
| W1:187.2 | you strengthen them in your own mind. Perhaps the form in which the | thought seems to appear is changed in giving. Yet it must return to |
| W1:187.4 | them away, and you are sure that you will never lose them. What you | thought you did not have is thereby proven yours. Yet value not its |
| W1:187.4 | however much you try to keep it safe. No form endures. It is the | thought behind the form of things that lives unchangeable. |
| W1:187.5 | Give gladly. You can only gain thereby. The | thought remains and grows in strength as it is reinforced by giving. |
| W1:187.5 | as well. And both must gain in this exchange, for each will have the | thought in form most helpful to him. What he seems to lose is always |
| W1:187.7 | recognized must disappear. Accept not suffering, and you remove the | thought of suffering. Your blessing lies on everyone who suffers when |
| W1:187.7 | who suffers when you choose to see all suffering as what it is. The | thought of sacrifice gives rise to all the forms that suffering |
| W1:187.8 | There is no place for sacrifice in what has any value. If the | thought occurs, its very presence proves that error has arisen and |
| W1:187.9 | afraid to look. The blessedness you will behold will take away all | thought of form and leave instead the perfect gift forever there, |
| W1:187.10 | Now are we one in | thought, for fear has gone. And here, before the altar to one God, |
| W1:187.10 | here, before the altar to one God, one Father, one Creator and one | thought, we stand together as one Son of God. Not separate from Him |
| W1:188.9 | life. We will forgive them all, absolving all the world of what we | thought it did to us. For it is we who make the world as we would |
| W1:189.1 | to be kept hidden from your sight. This light is a reflection of the | thought we practice now. To feel the Love of God within you is to see |
| W1:189.7 | it thinks is either true or false or good or bad, of every | thought it judges worthy and all the ideas of which it is ashamed. |
| W1:189.7 | of which it is ashamed. Hold onto nothing. Do not bring with you one | thought the past has taught nor one belief you ever learned before |
| W1:190.8 | Pain is the | thought of evil taking form and working havoc in your holy mind. Pain |
| W1:191.3 | escape the madness which induced this weird, unnatural, and ghostly | thought which mocks creation and which laughs at God. Deny your own |

| M:13.1 | The first illusion, which must be displaced before another | thought system can take hold, is that it is a sacrifice to give up |
| M:14.2 | will end with the benediction of holiness upon it. When not one | thought of sin remains, the world is over. It will not be destroyed |
| M:14.3 | Certainly this seems to be a long, long while away. “When not one | thought of sin remains” appears to be a long-range goal indeed. But |
| M:14.3 | time stands still and waits on the goals of God's teachers. Not one | thought of sin will remain the instant any one of them accepts the |
| M:14.4 | The world will end when its | thought system has been completely reversed. Until then, bits and |

| Tx:15.101 | you see some scraps of safety. Do not try longer to keep apart your | thoughts and the Thought that has been given you. When they are |
| Tx:16.69 | The Holy Spirit asks only this little help of you. Whenever your | thoughts wander to a special relationship which still attracts you, |
| Tx:17.14 | To forgive is merely to remember only the loving | thoughts you gave in the past and those that were given you. All the |
| Tx:17.20 | If all but loving | thoughts has been forgotten, what remains is eternal. And the |

| Tx:17.65 | you see it done. A situation is a relationship, being the joining of | thoughts. If problems are perceived, it is because the thoughts are |
| Tx:17.65 | joining of thoughts. If problems are perceived, it is because the | thoughts are judged to be in conflict. But if the goal is truth, this |
| Tx:17.66 | And it is their intrusion on the relationship, an error in your | thoughts about the situation, which then becomes the justification |

| Tx:22.24 | belief that caused the separation. It is the meaningless idea that | thoughts can leave the thinker's mind, be different from it, and in |
| Tx:22.24 | be different from it, and in opposition to it. If this were true, | thoughts would not be the mind's extensions but its enemies. And here |

| Tx:30.43 | And in the Mind of God there is no ending nor a time in which His | Thoughts were absent or could suffer change. Thoughts are not born |
| Tx:30.43 | nor a time in which His Thoughts were absent or could suffer change. | Thoughts are not born and cannot die. They share the attributes of |
| Tx:30.43 | of their creator, nor have they a separate life apart from his. The | thoughts you think are in your mind, as you are in the mind Which |
| Tx:30.44 | Thoughts seem to come and go. Yet all this means is that you are | |
| Tx:30.45 | The | Thoughts of God are far beyond all change and shine forever. They |
| Tx:31.3 | is strong enough to teach you that your will is not your own, your | thoughts do not belong to you, and even you are someone else. |
| Tx:31.12 | Let us be still an instant and forget all things we ever learned, all | thoughts we had, and every preconception which we hold of what things |
| Tx:31.12 | our minds and swept away. Be innocent of judgment, unaware of any | thoughts of evil or of good that ever crossed your mind of anyone. |
| Tx:31.21 | the Christ Who calls to you. Be still and listen. Think not ancient | thoughts. Forget the dismal lessons that you learned about this Son |
| Tx:31.22 | you hear it, you will understand you need but come away without the | thoughts you did not want and that were never true. |
| Tx:31.29 | Yet is the body prisoner and not the mind. The body thinks no | thoughts. It has no power to learn, to pardon, nor enslave. It gives |
| Tx:31.30 | and attack, of pain and age, of grief and suffering. Here are the | thoughts of sacrifice preserved, for here guilt rules and orders that |
| Tx:31.41 | He has not left His | Thoughts! But you forgot His Presence and remembered not His Love. No |
| Tx:31.41 | will lead you to confusion and despair. Yet has He never left His | Thoughts to die, without their Source forever in themselves. He has |
| Tx:31.41 | die, without their Source forever in themselves. He has not left His | Thoughts! He could no more depart from them than they could keep Him |
| Tx:31.56 | And what can think has choice and can be shown that different | thoughts have different consequence. So it can learn that everything |
| Tx:31.69 | You could not recognize your “evil” | thoughts as long as you see value in attack. You will perceive them |
| Tx:31.69 | then your concept of yourself is wholly changed. Your “evil” | thoughts have been forgiven with his, because you let them all affect |
| Tx:31.72 | upon the good in him that you may not be frightened by your “evil” | thoughts because they do not cloud your view of him. And all this |
| Tx:31.74 | darkness and perceive the terrified imaginings that come from guilty | thoughts and concepts born of fear. And what you see is hell, for |
| W1:4.1 | idea for the day. In these practice periods, begin with noting the | thoughts that are crossing your mind for about a minute. Then apply |
| W1:4.1 | Then apply the idea to them. If you are already aware of unhappy | thoughts, use them as subjects for the idea. Do not, however, select |
| W1:4.1 | use them as subjects for the idea. Do not, however, select only the | thoughts you think are “bad.” You will find, if you train yourself to |
| W1:4.1 | are “bad.” You will find, if you train yourself to look at your | thoughts, that they represent such a mixture that, in a sense, none |
| W1:4.2 | the usual specificity is required. Do not be afraid to use “good” | thoughts as well as “bad.” None of them represents your real |
| W1:4.2 | “good” thoughts as well as “bad.” None of them represents your real | thoughts, which are being covered up by them. The “good” ones of |
| W1:4.3 | to recognize what is the same and what is different. In using your | thoughts for application of the idea for today, identify each thought |
| W1:4.5 | kind, you may find the suspension of judgment in connection with | thoughts particularly difficult. Do not repeat these exercises more |
| W1:6.4 | Again, if you resist applying the idea to some upsetting | thoughts more than to others, remind yourself of the two cautions |
| W1:7.5 | It is the reason why your | thoughts do not mean anything and why they are like the things you |
| W1:8.1 | you see only the past. No one really sees anything. He sees only his | thoughts projected outward. The mind's preoccupation with the past is |
| W1:8.4 | search your mind for the usual minute or so, merely noting the | thoughts you find there. Name each one by the central figure or theme |
| W1:8.6 | Then name each of your | thoughts specifically. For example: |
| W1:8.9 | But my mind is preoccupied with past | thoughts. |
| W1:10.1 | This idea applies to all the | thoughts of which you are aware or become aware in the practice |
| W1:10.1 | the idea is applicable to all of them is that they are not your real | thoughts. We have made this distinction before and will again. You |
| W1:10.1 | you do, you will have no doubt that what you once believed were your | thoughts did not mean anything. |
| W1:10.3 | This aspect of the correction process began with the idea that the | thoughts of which you are aware are meaningless, outside rather than |
| W1:10.6 | The exercises consist, as before, in searching your mind for all the | thoughts which are available to you, without selection or judgment. |
| W1:11.1 | what you perceive. Today's idea introduces the concept that your | thoughts determine the world you see. Be glad indeed to practice the |
| W1:14.3 | The idea for today is another step in learning to let go the | thoughts which you have written on the world, and see the Word of God |
| W1:15.1 | It is because the | thoughts you think you think appear as images that you do not |
| W1:16.1 | for today is a beginning step in dispelling the belief that your | thoughts have no effect. Everything you see is the result of your |
| W1:16.1 | thoughts have no effect. Everything you see is the result of your | thoughts. There is no exception to this fact. Thoughts are not big or |
| W1:16.1 | is the result of your thoughts. There is no exception to this fact. | Thoughts are not big or little, powerful or weak. They are merely |
| W1:16.2 | There is no more self-contradictory concept than that of “idle | thoughts.” What gives rise to the perception of a whole world can |
| W1:16.3 | thought is impossible. There is such a temptation to dismiss fear | thoughts as unimportant, trivial, and not worth bothering about that |
| W1:16.8 | about _____ is not a neutral thought, because I have no neutral | thoughts. |
| W1:17.1 | operates. You see no neutral things because you have no neutral | thoughts. It is always the thought that comes first, despite the |
| W1:17.3 | I see no neutral things because I have no neutral | thoughts. |
| W1:17.5 | I do not see a neutral _____, because my | thoughts about _____ are not neutral. |
| W1:17.7 | I do not see a neutral wall, because my | thoughts about walls are not neutral. I do not see a neutral body, |
| W1:17.7 | about walls are not neutral. I do not see a neutral body, because my | thoughts about bodies are not neutral. |
| W1:17.8 | and really joyous. That is because you are unaware as yet of any | thoughts which are really true and therefore really happy. |
| W1:18.1 | The idea for today is another step in learning that the | thoughts which give rise to what you see are never neutral or |
| W1:19.2 | an “invasion of privacy.” Yet it is a fact that there are no private | thoughts. Despite your initial resistance to this idea, you will yet |
| W1:19.3 | first, and then the mind should be carefully searched for the | thoughts it contains at that time. As you consider each one, name it |
| W1:21.3 | Try, therefore, not to let the “little” | thoughts of anger escape you in the practice periods. Remember that |
| W1:21.4 | As you search your mind for all the forms in which attack | thoughts present themselves, hold each one in mind and tell yourself: |
| W1:22.1 | Today's idea accurately describes the way anyone who holds attack | thoughts in his mind must see the world. Having projected his anger |
| W1:22.1 | vicious circle until he is willing to change how he sees. Otherwise, | thoughts of attack and counter-attack will preoccupy him and people |
| W1:23.1 | you have makes up some segment of the world you see. It is with your | thoughts, then, that we must work if your perception of the world is |
| W1:23.2 | If the cause of the world you see is attack | thoughts, you must learn that it is these thoughts which you do not |
| W1:23.2 | world you see is attack thoughts, you must learn that it is these | thoughts which you do not want. There is no point in lamenting the |
| W1:23.2 | it is merely an effect. But there is indeed a point in changing your | thoughts about the world. Here you are changing the cause. The |
| W1:23.3 | “external reality” is a pictorial representation of your own attack | thoughts. One can well ask if this can be called seeing. Is not |
| W1:23.6 | and devote about a minute to searching your mind for as many attack | thoughts as occur to you. As each one crosses your mind say: |
| W1:23.7 | I can escape from the world by giving up attack | thoughts about _____. |
| W1:23.9 | In the practice periods, be sure to include both your | thoughts of attacking and of being attacked. Their effects are |
| W1:23.9 | the cause of the world you see. When you finally realize that | thoughts of attack and of being attacked are not different, you will |
| W1:26.2 | Because your attack | thoughts will be projected, you will fear attack. And if you fear |
| W1:26.2 | fear attack, you must believe that you are not invulnerable. Attack | thoughts therefore make you vulnerable in your own mind, which is |
| W1:26.2 | make you vulnerable in your own mind, which is where the attack | thoughts are. Attack thoughts and invulnerability cannot be accepted |
| W1:26.2 | in your own mind, which is where the attack thoughts are. Attack | thoughts and invulnerability cannot be accepted together. They |
| W1:26.3 | introduces the thought that you always attack yourself. If attack | thoughts must entail the belief that you are vulnerable, their effect |
| W1:26.4 | that vulnerability or invulnerability is the result of your own | thoughts. Nothing except your thoughts can attack you. Nothing except |
| W1:26.4 | is the result of your own thoughts. Nothing except your | thoughts can attack you. Nothing except your thoughts can make you |
| W1:26.4 | Nothing except your thoughts can attack you. Nothing except your | thoughts can make you think you are vulnerable. And nothing except |
| W1:26.4 | can make you think you are vulnerable. And nothing except your | thoughts can prove to you this is not so. |
| W1:26.6 | Any problem as yet unsettled which tends to recur in your | thoughts during the day is a suitable subject. You will not be able |
| W1:28.3 | of tables, nor are you limiting its purpose to your little personal | thoughts. |
| W1:31.3 | As you survey your inner world, merely let whatever | thoughts cross your mind come into your awareness, each to be |
| W1:31.3 | special investment on your part. As you sit and quietly watch your | thoughts, repeat today's idea to yourself as often as you care to, |
| W1:33.2 | as outside yourself, then close your eyes and survey your inner | thoughts with equal casualness. Try to remain equally uninvolved in |
| W1:34.1 | of mind is clearly an internal matter. It must begin with your own | thoughts and then extend outward. It is from your peace of mind that |
| W1:34.3 | for each of the longer practice periods. Search your mind for fear | thoughts, anxiety provoking situations, “offending” personalities or |
| W1:34.3 | or events, or anything else about which you are harboring unloving | thoughts. Note them all casually, repeating the idea for today slowly |
| W1:34.8 | I can replace my feelings of depression, anxiety or worry [or my | thoughts about this situation, personality, or event] with peace. |
| W1:37.8 | the idea to what you see around you and to those who are in your | thoughts; or you may use any combination of these two phases of |
| W1:38.6 | to time you may want to vary this procedure and add some relevant | thoughts of your own. You might like, for example, to include |
| W1:38.6 | thoughts of your own. You might like, for example, to include | thoughts such as: |
| W1:39.6 | idea to yourself. Then with closed eyes search out your unloving | thoughts in whatever form they appear—uneasiness, depression, |
| W1:39.7 | situations, events, or personalities you associate with unloving | thoughts of any kind are suitable subjects for today's exercises. It |
| W1:39.9 | My unloving | thoughts about _____ are keeping me in hell. My holiness is my |
| W1:41.4 | when the truth is hidden deep within under a heavy cloud of insane | thoughts, dense and obscuring, yet representing all you see? Today we |
| W1:41.5 | Try instead to get a sense of turning inward, past all the idle | thoughts of the world. Try to enter very deeply into your own mind, |
| W1:41.5 | Try to enter very deeply into your own mind, keeping it clear of any | thoughts that might divert your attention. |
| W1:41.6 | try to sink down and inward, away from the world and all the foolish | thoughts of the world. You are trying to reach past all these things. |
| W1:41.9 | You can indeed afford to laugh at fear | thoughts, remembering that God goes with you wherever you go. |
| W1:42.1 | The idea for today combines two very powerful | thoughts, both of major importance. It also sets forth a cause and |
| W1:42.4 | idea again, quite slowly. After this, try to think of nothing except | thoughts which occur to you in relation to today's idea. You might |
| W1:42.7 | at the amount of course-related understanding some of your own | thoughts contain. Let them come without censoring unless you realize |
| W1:42.7 | your mind is merely wandering and you have let obviously irrelevant | thoughts intrude. You may also reach a point where no thoughts at all |
| W1:42.7 | irrelevant thoughts intrude. You may also reach a point where no | thoughts at all seem to come to mind. If such interferences occur, |
| W1:42.7 | repeat the idea once more, and then continue to look for related | thoughts in your mind. |
| W1:42.8 | Remember, though, that active searching for relevant | thoughts is not appropriate for today's exercises. Try merely to step |
| W1:42.8 | for today's exercises. Try merely to step back and let the | thoughts come. If you find this difficult, it is better to spend the |
| W1:42.8 | then open, and so on, than it is to strain in order to find suitable | thoughts. |
| W1:42.9 | beneficial. The idea for the day is a beginning step in bringing | thoughts together and teaching you that we are studying a unified |
| W1:43.8 | your eyes, repeat today's idea again, and then let whatever relevant | thoughts occur to you add to the idea in your own personal way. |
| W1:43.8 | thoughts occur to you add to the idea in your own personal way. | Thoughts such as: |
| W1:43.9 | see the world as blessed. The world can show me myself. I see my own | thoughts, which are like God's. |
| W1:43.10 | related more or less directly to today's idea is suitable. The | thoughts need not bear an obvious relationship to the idea, but they |
| W1:43.11 | If you should find your mind wandering, if you begin to be aware of | thoughts which are clearly out of accord with today's idea, or if you |
| W1:43.11 | period to occur in which you become preoccupied with irrelevant | thoughts. Return to the first phase of the exercises as often as |
| W1:44.5 | form, you leave behind everything that you now believe and all the | thoughts which you have made up. Properly speaking, this is the |
| W1:44.7 | It is merely taking its natural course. Try to observe your passing | thoughts without involvement and slip quietly by them. |
| W1:44.10 | to think of light, formless and without limit, as you pass by the | thoughts of this world. And do not forget that they cannot hold you |
| W1:45.1 | Today's idea holds the key to what your real | thoughts are. They are nothing that you think you think, just as |
| W1:45.1 | and what you think is real. Nothing that you think are your real | thoughts resembles your real thoughts in any respect. Nothing that |
| W1:45.1 | Nothing that you think are your real thoughts resembles your real | thoughts in any respect. Nothing that you think you see bears any |
| W1:45.2 | You think with the Mind of God. Therefore you share your | thoughts with Him, as He shares His with you. They are the same |
| W1:45.2 | your thoughts with Him, as He shares His with you. They are the same | thoughts because they are thought by the same Mind. To share is to |
| W1:45.2 | the same Mind. To share is to make alike or to make one. Nor do the | thoughts you think with the Mind of God leave your mind, because |
| W1:45.2 | the thoughts you think with the Mind of God leave your mind, because | thoughts do not leave their source. Therefore your thoughts are in |
| W1:45.2 | mind, because thoughts do not leave their source. Therefore your | thoughts are in the Mind of God, as you are. They are in your mind as |
| W1:45.2 | mind as well, where He is. As you are part of His Mind, so are your | thoughts part of His thoughts. |
| W1:45.2 | He is. As you are part of His Mind, so are your thoughts part of His | thoughts. |
| W1:45.3 | Where, then, are your real | thoughts? Today we will attempt to reach them. We will have to look |
| W1:45.4 | real. We will deny the world in favor of truth. We will not let the | thoughts of the world hold us back, and we will not let the beliefs |
| W1:45.6 | as you do so. Spend a fairly short period in thinking a few relevant | thoughts of your own, keeping the idea in mind as you do so. After |
| W1:45.6 | idea in mind as you do so. After you have added some four or five | thoughts of your own, repeat the idea again, and tell yourself gently: |
| W1:45.7 | My real | thoughts are in my mind. I would like to find them. |
| W1:45.8 | Then try to go past all the unreal | thoughts that cover the truth in your mind, and reach to the eternal. |
| W1:45.9 | Under all the senseless | thoughts and mad ideas with which you have cluttered up your mind are |
| W1:45.9 | and mad ideas with which you have cluttered up your mind are the | thoughts which you thought with God in the beginning. They are there |
| W1:45.10 | Here is your mind joined with the Mind of God. Here are your | thoughts one with His. |
| W1:45.12 | your mind's holiness. Stand aside, however briefly, from all | thoughts that are unworthy of Him Whose host you are. And thank Him |
| W1:45.12 | that are unworthy of Him Whose host you are. And thank Him for the | thoughts He is thinking with you. |
| W1:49.3 | God and of your Self. We will approach this happiest and holiest of | thoughts with confidence, knowing that in doing so we are joining our |
| W1:49.4 | all the raucous shrieks and sick imaginings that cover your real | thoughts and obscure your eternal link with God. Sink deep into the |
| W1:49.4 | deep into the peace that waits for you beyond the frantic, riotous | thoughts and sounds and sights of this insane world. You do not live |
| W1:50.4 | deep into your consciousness. Repeat it, think about it, let related | thoughts come to help you recognize its truth, and allow peace to |
| W1:50.4 | you like a blanket of protection and surety. Let no idle and foolish | thoughts enter to disturb the holy mind of the Son of God. Such is |
| W1:51.5 | [4] These | thoughts do not mean anything. The thoughts of which I am aware do |
| W1:51.5 | [4] These thoughts do not mean anything. The | thoughts of which I am aware do not mean anything because I am trying |
| W1:51.5 | anything because I am trying to think without God. What I call “my” | thoughts are not my real thoughts. My real thoughts are the thoughts |
| W1:51.5 | to think without God. What I call “my” thoughts are not my real | thoughts. My real thoughts are the thoughts I think with God. I am |
| W1:51.5 | God. What I call “my” thoughts are not my real thoughts. My real | thoughts are the thoughts I think with God. I am not aware of them |
| W1:51.5 | “my” thoughts are not my real thoughts. My real thoughts are the | thoughts I think with God. I am not aware of them because I have made |
| W1:51.5 | I think with God. I am not aware of them because I have made my | thoughts to take their place. I am willing to recognize that my |
| W1:51.5 | my thoughts to take their place. I am willing to recognize that my | thoughts do not mean anything and to let them go. I choose to have |
| W1:51.5 | to have them be replaced by what they were intended to replace. My | thoughts are meaningless, but all creation lies in the thoughts I |
| W1:51.5 | replace. My thoughts are meaningless, but all creation lies in the | thoughts I think with God. |
| W1:51.6 | the reason I think because I am constantly trying to justify “my” | thoughts. I am constantly trying to make them true. I make all things |
| W1:52.4 | [8] My mind is preoccupied with past | thoughts. I see only my own thoughts, and my mind is preoccupied with |
| W1:52.4 | [8] My mind is preoccupied with past thoughts. I see only my own | thoughts, and my mind is preoccupied with the past. What, then, can I |
| W1:52.6 | [10] My | thoughts do not mean anything. I have no private thoughts. Yet it is |
| W1:52.6 | [10] My thoughts do not mean anything. I have no private | thoughts. Yet it is only private thoughts of which I am aware. What |
| W1:52.6 | mean anything. I have no private thoughts. Yet it is only private | thoughts of which I am aware. What can these thoughts mean? They do |
| W1:52.6 | Yet it is only private thoughts of which I am aware. What can these | thoughts mean? They do not exist, and so they mean nothing. Yet my |
| W1:52.6 | all that is really mine with my pitiful and meaningless “private” | thoughts? |
| W1:53.2 | [11] My meaningless | thoughts are showing me a meaningless world. Since the thoughts of |
| W1:53.2 | meaningless thoughts are showing me a meaningless world. Since the | thoughts of which I am aware do not mean anything, the world which |
| W1:53.2 | and so is what it produces. Reality is not insane, and I have real | thoughts as well as insane ones. I can therefore see a real world if |
| W1:53.2 | insane ones. I can therefore see a real world if I look to my real | thoughts as my guide for seeing. |
| W1:53.3 | [12] I am upset because I see a meaningless world. Insane | thoughts are upsetting. They produce a world in which there is no |
| W1:53.5 | Why should I continue to suffer from the effects of my own insane | thoughts when the perfection of creation is my home? Let me remember |
| W1:53.6 | [15] My | thoughts are images which I have made. Whatever I see reflects my |
| W1:53.6 | My thoughts are images which I have made. Whatever I see reflects my | thoughts. It is my thoughts which tell me where I am and what I am. |
| W1:53.6 | which I have made. Whatever I see reflects my thoughts. It is my | thoughts which tell me where I am and what I am. The fact that I see |
| W1:53.6 | death shows me that I am seeing only the representation of my insane | thoughts and am not allowing my real thoughts to cast their |
| W1:53.6 | the representation of my insane thoughts and am not allowing my real | thoughts to cast their beneficent light on what I see. Yet God's way |
| W1:54.2 | [16] I have no neutral | thoughts. Neutral thoughts are impossible, because all thoughts have |
| W1:54.2 | [16] I have no neutral thoughts. Neutral | thoughts are impossible, because all thoughts have power. They will |
| W1:54.2 | no neutral thoughts. Neutral thoughts are impossible, because all | thoughts have power. They will either make a false world or lead me |
| W1:54.2 | They will either make a false world or lead me to the real one. But | thoughts cannot be without effects. As the world I see arises from my |
| W1:54.2 | real world rise before my eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My | thoughts cannot be neither true nor false. They must be one or the |
| W1:54.4 | alone in experiencing the effects of my seeing. If I have no private | thoughts, I cannot see a private world. Even the mad idea of |
| W1:54.4 | that sharing was a sharing of nothing. I can also call upon my real | thoughts, which share everything with everybody. As my thoughts of |
| W1:54.4 | upon my real thoughts, which share everything with everybody. As my | thoughts of separation call to the separation thoughts of others, so |
| W1:54.4 | with everybody. As my thoughts of separation call to the separation | thoughts of others, so my real thoughts awaken the real thoughts in |
| W1:54.4 | of separation call to the separation thoughts of others, so my real | thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the world my real |
| W1:54.4 | separation thoughts of others, so my real thoughts awaken the real | thoughts in them. And the world my real thoughts show me will dawn on |
| W1:54.4 | thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the world my real | thoughts show me will dawn on their sight as well as mine. |
| W1:54.5 | [19] I am not alone in experiencing the effects of my | thoughts. I am alone in nothing. Everything I think or say or do |
| W1:54.6 | [20] I am determined to see. Recognizing the shared nature of my | thoughts, I am determined to see. I would look upon the witnesses |
| W1:55.3 | of vengeance. The world I see is hardly the representation of loving | thoughts. It is a picture of attack on everything by everything. It |
| W1:55.3 | of the Love of God and the love of His Son. It is my own attack | thoughts which give rise to this picture. My loving thoughts will |
| W1:55.3 | is my own attack thoughts which give rise to this picture. My loving | thoughts will save me from this perception of the world and give me |
| W1:55.4 | [23] I can escape from the world by giving up attack | thoughts. Herein lies my salvation, and nowhere else. Without attack |
| W1:55.4 | thoughts. Herein lies my salvation, and nowhere else. Without attack | thoughts I could not see a world of attack. As forgiveness allows |
| W1:56.2 | [26] My attack | thoughts are attacking my invulnerability. How can I know who I am |
| W1:56.2 | I see. But God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My own real | thoughts will teach me what it is. |
| W1:56.6 | see because God is in my mind. In my own mind, behind all my insane | thoughts of separation and attack, is the knowledge that all is one |
| W1:56.6 | it. It has been kept for me in the Mind of God, Who has not left His | thoughts. And I, who am among them, am one with them and one with Him. |
| W1:57.4 | another way of looking at it. I see everything upside down, and my | thoughts are the opposite of truth. I see the world as a prison for |
| W1:58.2 | the holiness of the world is all I see, for I can picture only the | thoughts I hold about myself. |
| W1:59.6 | [45] God is the Mind with which I think. I have no | thoughts I do not share with God. I have no thoughts apart from Him |
| W1:59.6 | which I think. I have no thoughts I do not share with God. I have no | thoughts apart from Him because I have no mind apart from His. As |
| W1:59.6 | Him because I have no mind apart from His. As part of His Mind, my | thoughts are His and His thoughts are mine. |
| W1:59.6 | apart from His. As part of His Mind, my thoughts are His and His | thoughts are mine. |
| W1:60.5 | save me. There is not a moment in which His Voice fails to direct my | thoughts, guide my actions, and lead my feet. I am walking steadily |
| W1:61.7 | with your eyes closed if the situation permits. Let a few related | thoughts come to you, and repeat the idea to yourself if your mind |
| W1:62.2 | the truth. For this, attack must be replaced by forgiveness so that | thoughts of life may replace thoughts of death. |
| W1:62.2 | must be replaced by forgiveness so that thoughts of life may replace | thoughts of death. |
| W1:62.8 | Let related | thoughts come freely, for your heart will recognize these words, and |
| W1:63.5 | can close your eyes, you will probably find it easier to let related | thoughts come to you in the minute or two which you should devote to |
| W1:64.7 | Today, then, let us practice with these | thoughts: |
| W1:64.9 | ten or 15 minutes to reflecting on this with closed eyes. Related | thoughts will come to help you if you remember the crucial importance |
| W1:64.10 | made throughout the day, devote several minutes to reviewing these | thoughts and then to thinking about them and about nothing else. This |
| W1:64.11 | do the exercises with your eyes closed, trying to concentrate on the | thoughts you are applying. At other times keep your eyes open after |
| W1:64.11 | are applying. At other times keep your eyes open after reviewing the | thoughts and look slowly and unselectively about you, telling |
| W1:65.1 | reminds you that you have no function other than this. Both of these | thoughts are obviously necessary for a total commitment. Salvation |
| W1:65.5 | yourself once again, and watch your mind carefully to catch whatever | thoughts cross it. |
| W1:65.6 | At first, make no attempt to concentrate only on | thoughts related to the idea for today. Rather, try to uncover each |
| W1:65.8 | After a while, interfering | thoughts will become harder to find. Try, however, to continue a |
| W1:65.8 | a minute or so longer, attempting to catch a few of the idle | thoughts which escaped your attention before, but do not strain or |
| W1:66.5 | Begin the ten- to fifteen-minute practice period by reviewing these | thoughts: |
| W1:66.7 | if you do not yet accept the conclusion. It is only if the first two | thoughts are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let us, then, |
| W1:67.2 | truth about you and then spend a few minutes adding some relevant | thoughts, such as: |
| W1:67.5 | After you have gone over several such related | thoughts, try to let all thoughts drop away for a brief preparatory |
| W1:67.5 | you have gone over several such related thoughts, try to let all | thoughts drop away for a brief preparatory interval, and then try to |
| W1:67.6 | repeat the idea for today from time to time to replace distracting | thoughts. You may also find that this is not sufficient and that you |
| W1:67.6 | this is not sufficient and that you need to continue adding other | thoughts related to the truth about yourself. Yet perhaps you will |
| W1:70.14 | yourself that your salvation comes from you and nothing but your own | thoughts can hamper your progress. You are free from all external |
| W1:72.3 | like; he does something that displeases us, he “betrays” his hostile | thoughts in his behavior. |
| W1:74.3 | Begin the longer practice periods by repeating these | thoughts several times, slowly and with firm determination to |
| W1:74.5 | Then spend several minutes in adding some related | thoughts, such as: |
| W1:74.7 | this introductory phase, be sure to deal quickly with any conflict | thoughts that may cross your mind. Tell yourself immediately: |
| W1:74.8 | There is no will but God's. These conflict | thoughts are meaningless. |
| W1:R2.3 | it. Do not allow your intent to waver in the face of distracting | thoughts. Realize that, whatever form such thoughts may take, they |
| W1:R2.3 | the face of distracting thoughts. Realize that, whatever form such | thoughts may take, they have no meaning and no power. Replace them |
| W1:R2.4 | and the life. Refuse to be side-tracked into detours, illusions, and | thoughts of death. You are dedicated to salvation. Be determined each |
| W1:91.10 | honesty, and then devote several minutes to allowing your mistaken | thoughts about your attributes to be corrected, and their opposites |
| W1:91.13 | meager, are fully supported by the strength of God and all His | thoughts. It is from Them your strength will come. It is through |
| W1:93.3 | but from a very different reference point from which such idle | thoughts are meaningless. These thoughts are not according to God's |
| W1:93.3 | reference point from which such idle thoughts are meaningless. These | thoughts are not according to God's Will. These weird beliefs He does |
| W1:93.12 | however, to do so when you can. At least remember to repeat these | thoughts each hour: |
| W1:93.15 | disturbing, quickly dispel the illusion of fear by repeating these | thoughts again. Should you be tempted to become angry with someone, |
| W1:94.1 | world are still, the sights of this world disappear, and all the | thoughts that this world ever held are wiped away forever by this one |
| W1:96.5 | its function then, it has no peace, and happiness is alien to its | thoughts. |
| W1:96.8 | Your Self retains its | thoughts, and they remain within your mind and in the Mind of God. |
| W1:96.8 | in your name that it was done. Thus is salvation kept among the | thoughts your Self holds dear and cherishes for you. |
| W1:96.12 | Salvation comes from my One Self. Its | thoughts are mine to use. |
| W1:96.13 | Then seek its | thoughts, and claim them as your own. |
| W1:96.14 | These are your own real | thoughts you have denied, and let your mind go wandering in a world |
| W1:96.14 | a world of dreams, to find illusions in their place. Here are your | thoughts, the only ones you have. Salvation is among them; find it |
| W1:96.15 | If you succeed, the | thoughts that come to you will tell you you are saved and that your |
| W1:97.6 | will increase in healing power each time someone accepts them as his | thoughts and uses them to heal. |
| W1:98.13 | with you, be thankful and lay down all earthly tasks, all little | thoughts and limited ideas, and spend a happy time again with Him. |
| W1:99.3 | illusions thinks them real. They have existence in that they are | thoughts. And yet they are not real because the mind that thinks |
| W1:99.3 | And yet they are not real because the mind that thinks these | thoughts is separate from God. |
| W1:99.4 | What joins the separated mind and | thoughts with Mind and thought which are forever one? What plan could |
| W1:99.9 | mistakes enter the darkened places of your mind which thought the | thoughts that never were His Will. |
| W1:99.10 | belongs to God, as does the rest. It does not think its solitary | thoughts and make them real by hiding them from Him. Let in the |
| W1:99.15 | Forgive all | thoughts which would oppose the truth of your completeness, unity, |
| W1:100.1 | Father's plan. Salvation must reverse the mad belief in separate | thoughts and separate bodies which lead separate lives and go their |
| W1:100.9 | that you succeed! Look deep within you, undismayed by all the little | thoughts and foolish goals you pass as you ascend to meet the Christ |
| W1:101.9 | your practice periods, and then attempt again to find the joy these | thoughts will introduce into your mind. Give these five minutes |
| W1:107.4 | has come, all pain is over, for there is no room for transitory | thoughts and dead ideas to linger in your mind. Truth occupies your |
| W1:108.1 | the resolution, born of peace, of all your conflicts and mistaken | thoughts into one concept which is wholly true? Even that one will |
| W1:109.11 | passed by, to every Thought of God, and to the Mind in Which these | Thoughts were born and where they rest. And we remind them of their |
| W1:110.11 | will remember Him throughout the day with thankful hearts and loving | thoughts for all who meet with us today, for it is thus that we |
| W1:R3.5 | twice a day, or longer if you would prefer, to considering the | thoughts that are assigned. Read over the ideas and comments which |
| W1:R3.6 | them wisely, being helped in its decisions by the One Who gave the | thoughts to you. What can you trust but what is in your mind? Have |
| W1:R3.6 | start, and then lean back in quiet faith and let the mind employ the | thoughts you gave as they were given you for it to use. |
| W1:R3.14 | now. Do not forget your Father's need of you as you review these | thoughts He gave to you. |
| W1:122.3 | lets you recognize the Son of God and clears your memory of all dead | thoughts so that remembrance of your Father can arise across the |
| W1:124.4 | and remembrance. We feel Him in our hearts. Our minds contain His | thoughts; our eyes behold His loveliness in all we look upon. Today |
| W1:124.6 | to come, as easily as in the ones who walk beside them now. Their | thoughts are timeless and apart from distance as apart from time. |
| W1:125.3 | we will hear God's Voice today without intrusion of our petty | thoughts, without our personal desires, and without all judgment of |
| W1:126.2 | from you and able to behave in ways which have no bearing on your | thoughts, nor theirs on [yourself]. Therefore your attitudes have no |
| W1:126.8 | will need help to make this meaningful because it is so alien to the | thoughts to which you are accustomed. But the Help you need is there. |
| W1:126.10 | understand forgiveness and seek sanctuary in the quiet place where | thoughts are changed and false beliefs laid by. Repeat today's idea, |
| W1:127.8 | own reality and what love means. He will shine through your idle | thoughts today and help you understand the truth of love. In loving |
| W1:128.4 | Let nothing which relates to body | thoughts delay your progress to salvation, nor permit temptation to |
| W1:129.11 | and take a moment to confirm your choice by laying by whatever | thoughts you have, and dwelling briefly only upon this: |
| W1:131.10 | not exist, while Heaven is the place he cannot find. Leave foolish | thoughts like these behind today, and turn your mind to true ideas |
| W1:131.11 | images that we held dear, with true ideas arising in the place of | thoughts which have no meaning, no effect, and neither source nor |
| W1:131.13 | from those I made. The world I seek I did not make alone. The | thoughts I want to think are not my own. |
| W1:131.14 | eyes are closed, the senseless world you think is real. Review the | thoughts as well which are compatible with such a world and which you |
| W1:131.18 | today should be a time of special gladness, and refrain from dismal | thoughts and meaningless laments. Salvation's time has come. Today is |
| W1:132.1 | can save the world except your Self? Belief is powerful indeed. The | thoughts you hold are mighty, and illusions are as strong in their |
| W1:132.1 | real and does not doubt it. Nor can he be swayed by questioning his | thoughts' effects. It is but when their source is raised to question |
| W1:132.2 | easily achieved, for anyone is free to change his mind, and all his | thoughts change with it. Now the source of thought has shifted, for |
| W1:132.3 | from what you thought before. You free the future from all ancient | thoughts of seeking what you do not want to find. The present now |
| W1:132.5 | came unwillingly to what was made already, hardly waiting for your | thoughts to give it meaning. Yet in truth you found exactly what you |
| W1:132.9 | from all things you ever thought it was by merely changing all the | thoughts that gave it these appearances. The sick are healed as you |
| W1:132.9 | gave it these appearances. The sick are healed as you let go all | thoughts of sickness, and the dead arise when you let thoughts of |
| W1:132.9 | you let go all thoughts of sickness, and the dead arise when you let | thoughts of life replace all thoughts you ever held of death. |
| W1:132.9 | and the dead arise when you let thoughts of life replace all | thoughts you ever held of death. |
| W1:132.12 | And as it was His thought by which you were created, so it is your | thoughts which made it and must set it free that you may know the |
| W1:132.12 | thoughts which made it and must set it free that you may know the | thoughts you share with God. |
| W1:132.15 | Today our purpose is to free the world from all the idle | thoughts we ever held about it and about all living things we see |
| W1:132.19 | world as well as to the ones you see near by as you send out these | thoughts to bless the world. But you will sense your own release, |
| W1:134.18 | Let him be freed from all the | thoughts you had of sin in him. And now you are prepared for freedom. |
| W1:135.3 | is based on this insane belief. And all its structures, all its | thoughts and doubts, its penalties and heavy armaments, its legal |
| W1:135.11 | These are the | thoughts in need of healing, and the body will respond with health |
| W1:136.14 | God has given you is not the truth right now, as it must be. The | thoughts of God are quite apart from time. For time is but another |
| W1:136.21 | be preserved by careful watching. If you let your mind harbor attack | thoughts, yield to judgment, or make plans against uncertainties to |
| W1:137.12 | succeed. Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds, that | thoughts of healing will this day go forth from what is healed to |
| W1:137.14 | And so we will begin the day with this and give ten minutes to these | thoughts with which we will conclude today at night as well: |
| W1:137.16 | and to receive the Word of God to take the place of all the foolish | thoughts that ever were imagined. Now we come together to make well |
| W1:139.13 | our dedication to our cause today each hour, as we lay aside all | thoughts that would distract us from our holy aim. For several |
| W1:140.8 | not further from us than ourselves. It is as near to us as our own | thoughts—so close it is impossible to lose. We need but seek it, |
| W1:140.11 | we go to sleep. Our only preparation is to let our interfering | thoughts be laid aside, not separately, but all of them as one. They |
| W1:R4.1 | following. Thus we review the recent lessons and their central | thoughts in such a way as will facilitate the readiness which we |
| W1:R4.4 | which fully guarantees salvation to the Son. For in his mind no | thoughts can dwell but those his Father shares. Lack of forgiveness |
| W1:R4.5 | to be but what they are—defenses which protect your unforgiving | thoughts from being seen and recognized. Their purpose is to show you |
| W1:R4.7 | you in freedom and in peace. Open your mind and clear it of all | thoughts that would deceive, and let this thought alone engage it |
| W1:R4.9 | lines which God appointed and to place His Mind in charge of all the | thoughts you will receive that day. They will not come from you |
| W1:R4.11 | let them be received where they were meant to be. We add no other | thoughts, but let them be the messages they are. We need no more than |
| W1:151.13 | of the thought with which the day begins. And then we watch our | thoughts, appealing silently to Him Who sees the elements of truth in |
| W1:151.14 | Give Him your | thoughts, and He will give them back as miracles which joyously |
| W1:151.15 | 15 more before you go to sleep. Your ministry begins as all your | thoughts are purified. So are you taught to teach the Son of God the |
| W1:151.15 | Voice for God give honor to God's Son. And everyone will share the | thoughts with you which He has retranslated in your mind. |
| W1:151.17 | we give thanks the world unites with us and happily accepts our holy | thoughts which Heaven has corrected and made pure. Now has our |
| W1:152.15 | Father. He will substitute the peace of God for all your frantic | thoughts, the truth of God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for |
| W1:153.9 | has any meaning. Now we cannot fear, for we have left all fearful | thoughts behind. And in defenselessness we stand secure, serenely |
| W1:153.13 | which we put away the toys of guilt and lock our quaint and childish | thoughts of sin forever from the pure and holy minds of Heaven's |
| W1:153.16 | on us, and we will be unable to withdraw a little while and turn our | thoughts to God. |
| W1:156.2 | We are not inconsistent in the | thoughts that we present in our curriculum. Truth must be true |
| W1:157.5 | so transform your mind that it becomes the touchstone for the holy | thoughts of God. |
| W1:158.7 | touched, a purity undimmed by errors, pitiful mistakes, and fearful | thoughts of guilt from dreams of sin. It sees no separation. And it |
| W1:161.4 | all minds, for every mind is one. Such is the truth. Yet do these | thoughts make clear the meaning of creation? Do these words bring |
| W1:162.4 | practice simply. For the words we use are mighty, and they need no | thoughts beyond themselves to change the mind of him who uses them. |
| W1:163.1 | which the wish to be as you are not may come to tempt you. All such | thoughts are but reflections of the worshipping of death as savior |
| W1:163.8 | Death's worshipers may be afraid. And yet can | thoughts like these be fearful? If they saw that it is only this |
| W1:163.9 | things, to be like You and part of You forever. We accept Your | thoughts as ours, and our will is one with Yours eternally. Amen. |
| W1:165.1 | except your own denial of the truth which lies beyond? What but your | thoughts of misery and death obscure the perfect happiness and the |
| W1:167.1 | the one condition in which all that God created share. Like all His | thoughts, it has no opposite. There is no death because what God |
| W1:167.8 | not share with them. The thought of death is not the opposite to | thoughts of life. Forever unopposed by opposites of any kind, the |
| W1:167.8 | to thoughts of life. Forever unopposed by opposites of any kind, the | thoughts of God remain forever changeless with the power to extend |
| W1:167.11 | forever and forever. He is Lord of what we think today. And in His | thoughts, which have no opposite, we understand there is one life and |
| W1:167.11 | one life and that we share with Him, with all creation, with their | thoughts as well, whom He created in a unity of life that cannot |
| W1:R5.3 | the Word You offer us to unify our practicing, as we review the | thoughts that You have given us. |
| W1:R5.4 | This is the thought which should precede the | thoughts that we review. Each one but clarifies some aspect of this |
| W1:R5.6 | alone knows love. This Self alone is perfectly consistent in Its | thoughts, knows Its Creator, understands Itself, is perfect in Its |
| W1:R5.10 | Release me as you practice once again the | thoughts I brought to you from Him Who sees your bitter need and |
| W1:R5.10 | and knows the answer God has given Him. Together we review these | thoughts. Together we devote our time and effort to them. And |
| W1:R5.14 | day. No thought that we review but we surround with it and use the | thoughts to hold it up before our minds and keep it clear in our |
| W1:181.8 | And we will also use these | thoughts to keep us safe throughout the day. We do not seek for long |
| W1:182.7 | He does not belong and where He lives an outcast in a world of alien | thoughts. His patience has no limits. He will wait until you hear His |
| W1:183.3 | a star; a miracle of grace. The sick arise, healed of their sickly | thoughts. The blind can see; the deaf can hear; the sorrowful cast |
| W1:183.7 | Hear nothing else. Let all your | thoughts become anchored on this. No other words we use except at the |
| W1:183.9 | the all-encompassing idea which holds your mind completely. Let all | thoughts be still except this one. And to all other thoughts respond |
| W1:183.9 | Let all thoughts be still except this one. And to all other | thoughts respond with this, and see God's Name replace the thousand |
| W1:183.9 | and see God's Name replace the thousand little names you gave your | thoughts, not realizing that there is One Name for all there is and |
| W1:183.11 | unneeded when God's Son calls on his Father's Name. His Father's | Thoughts become his own. He makes his claim to all his Father gave, |
| W1:186.13 | to you, although He knows that you have everything already. He has | thoughts which answer every need His Son perceives, although He sees |
| W1:187.2 | perceive it yours. Yet we have learned that things but represent the | thoughts that make them. And you do not lack for proof that when you |
| W1:187.5 | thought remains and grows in strength as it is reinforced by giving. | Thoughts extend as they are shared, for they cannot be lost. There is |
| W1:188.3 | forever and forever. What it gives must be eternal. It removes all | thoughts of the ephemeral and valueless. It brings renewal to all |
| W1:188.6 | give the gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer world and let your | thoughts fly to the peace within. They know the way. For honest |
| W1:188.6 | your thoughts fly to the peace within. They know the way. For honest | thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things outside yourself, |
| W1:188.6 | outside yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself. These | thoughts you think with Him. They recognize their home. And they |
| W1:188.8 | coming nearer to the light in us today. We take our wandering | thoughts and gently bring them back to where they fall in line with |
| W1:188.8 | and gently bring them back to where they fall in line with all the | thoughts we share with God. We will not let them stray. We let the |
| W1:189.7 | Simply do this: be still and lay aside all | thoughts of what you are and what God is, all concepts you have |
| W1:189.10 | look for them. Our hands are open to receive Your gifts. We have no | thoughts we think apart from You and cherish no beliefs of what we |
| W1:190.5 | It is your | thoughts alone that cause you pain. Nothing external to your mind can |
| W1:190.6 | does nothing. It has no effects at all. It merely represents your | thoughts. And it will change entirely as you elect to change your |
| W1:190.7 | represent its pains. Your strange desires bring it evil dreams. Your | thoughts of death envelop it in fear, while in your kind forgiveness |
| W1:190.9 | where Heaven's peace holds all things still at last. Lay down all | thoughts of danger and of fear. Let no attack enter with you. Lay |
| W1:191.5 | But let today's idea find a place among your | thoughts, and you have risen far above the world and all the worldly |
| W1:191.5 | thoughts, and you have risen far above the world and all the worldly | thoughts that hold it prisoner. And from this place of safety and |
| W1:192.7 | born of error. We are lost in mists of shifting dreams and fearful | thoughts, our eyes shut tight against the light, our minds engaged in |
| W1:193.4 | The One Whom God created to replace the foolish | thoughts which crept into the mind of His most holy Son with peace |
| W1:194.2 | passed all anxiety, all pits of hell, all blackness of depression, | thoughts of sin, and devastation brought about by guilt. Accept |
| W1:194.8 | thus you call the memory of Him to come again, replacing all your | thoughts of sin and evil with the truth of love. Think you the world |
| W1:195.1 | seems to suffer more than they. How pitiful and deprecating are such | thoughts! For who has cause for thanks while others have less cause, |
| W1:196.3 | see within today's idea the light of resurrection, looking past all | thoughts of crucifixion and of death to thoughts of liberation and of |
| W1:196.3 | looking past all thoughts of crucifixion and of death to | thoughts of liberation and of life. |
| W1:196.7 | shift has been accomplished, you cannot perceive that it is but your | thoughts that bring you fear and your deliverance depends on you. |
| W1:196.8 | you understand it is impossible that you be hurt except by your own | thoughts, the fear of God must disappear. You do not now believe that |
| W1:197.2 | easily are God and guilt confused by those who know not what their | thoughts can do. Deny your strength, and weakness must become |
| W1:197.9 | that you do is given unto Him. All that you think can only be His | thoughts, sharing with Him the holy thoughts of God. Earn now the |
| W1:197.9 | that you think can only be His thoughts, sharing with Him the holy | thoughts of God. Earn now the gratitude you have denied yourself when |
| W1:198.8 | can die! The stillness of your Self remains unmoved, untouched by | thoughts like these, and unaware of any condemnation which could need |
| W1:198.13 | Now is there stillness where before there was a frantic rush of | thoughts that made no sense. Now is there tranquil light across the |
| W1:198.14 | no condemnation in him. He is perfect in his holiness. He needs no | thoughts of mercy. Who could give him gifts when everything is his? |
| W1:199.2 | and with strength and power to do whatever it is asked. Attack | thoughts cannot enter such a mind because it has been given to the |
| W1:R6.2 | in mind, we start our practicing in which we carefully review the | thoughts the Holy Spirit has bestowed on us in our last 20 lessons. |
| W1:R6.10 | each day's idea, we will add but few formal expressions for specific | thoughts to aid your practicing. Instead we give these times of quiet |
| W1:R6.10 | the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of peace, and gives our | thoughts whatever meaning they may have. |
| W1:213.1 | me learn. A lesson is a miracle which God offers to me in place of | thoughts I made that hurt me. What I learn of Him becomes the way I |
| W2:I.8 | to follow it as He would have us go. His hand has held us up. His | thoughts have lit the darkness of our minds. His Love has called to |
| W2:I.11 | deep experience which should come afterwards. These special | thoughts should be reviewed each day, each one of them to be |
| W2:221.2 | one intent—to hear our Father's answer to our call, to let our | thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear Him speak to us of what |
| W2:222.1 | I live and move, the Spirit Which directs my actions, offers me Its | thoughts, and guarantees my safety from all pain. He covers me with |
| W2:223.1 | I have no other home, and I do not exist apart from Him. He has no | thoughts that are not part of me, and I have none but those which are |
| W2:229.2 | keeping my Identity untouched and sinless in the midst of all the | thoughts of sin my foolish mind made up. And thanks to You for saving |
| W2:WS.1 | but be kept. It guarantees that time will have an end, and all the | thoughts that have been born in time will end as well. God's Word is |
| W2:WS.1 | God's Word is given every mind which thinks that it has separate | thoughts and will replace these thoughts of conflict with the thought |
| W2:WS.1 | which thinks that it has separate thoughts and will replace these | thoughts of conflict with the thought of peace. |
| W2:232.1 | to hear my call to You and answer me. As evening comes, let all my | thoughts be still of You and of Your Love, and let me sleep sure of |
| W2:233.1 | Father, I give You all my | thoughts today. I would have none of mine. In place of them, give me |
| W2:234.1 | So brief the interval, there was no lapse in continuity nor break in | thoughts which are forever unified as one. Nothing has ever happened |
| W2:236.2 | Father, my mind is open to Your | thoughts and closed today to every thought but Yours. I rule my mind |
| W2:WIW.2 | Here was perception born, for knowledge could not cause such insane | thoughts. But eyes deceive, and ears hear falsely. Now mistakes |
| W2:249.2 | them, held them in a vise of bitterness, and frightened them with | thoughts of violence and death. Now would we rest again in You, as |
| W2:WIS.3 | of all illusions, which but stand for things imagined, issuing from | thoughts which are untrue. They are the “proof” that what has no |
| W2:252.1 | My Self is holy beyond all the | thoughts of holiness of which I now conceive. Its shimmering and |
| W2:254.2 | Today we let no ego | thoughts direct our words or actions. When such thoughts occur, we |
| W2:254.2 | Today we let no ego thoughts direct our words or actions. When such | thoughts occur, we quietly step back and look at them, and then we |
| W2:257.1 | be determined to remember what we want today that we may unify our | thoughts and actions meaningfully and achieve only what God would |
| W2:265.1 | What is reflected here is in God's Mind. The images I see reflect my | thoughts. Yet is my mind at one with God's. And so I can perceive |
| W2:265.2 | In quiet would I look upon the world, which but reflects Your | thoughts and mine as well. Let me remember that they are the same, |
| W2:275.2 | do and where to go, to whom to speak, and what to say to him, what | thoughts to think, what words to give the world. The safety that I |
| W2:278.2 | Father, I ask for nothing but the truth. I have had many foolish | thoughts about myself and my creation and have brought a dream of |
| W2:281.1 | he has forgotten who he is, and that he is as You created him. Your | Thoughts can only bring me happiness. If ever I am sad or hurt or |
| W2:281.1 | think and put my little, meaningless ideas in place of where Your | Thoughts belong and where They are. I can be hurt by nothing but my |
| W2:281.1 | Thoughts belong and where They are. I can be hurt by nothing but my | thoughts. The thoughts I think with You can only bless. The thoughts |
| W2:281.1 | and where They are. I can be hurt by nothing but my thoughts. The | thoughts I think with You can only bless. The thoughts I think with |
| W2:281.1 | but my thoughts. The thoughts I think with You can only bless. The | thoughts I think with You alone are true. |
| W2:284.1 | more, and finally accepted as the truth. I can elect to change all | thoughts that hurt. And I would go beyond these words today, go past |
| W2:285.1 | but them to come and realize my invitation will be answered by the | thoughts to which they have been sent by me. And I will ask for only |
| W2:WIRW.3 | What need has such a mind for | thoughts of death, attack, and murder? What can it perceive |
| W2:291.2 | This day my mind is quiet to receive the | thoughts You offer me. And I accept what comes from You instead of |
| W2:293.1 | All fear is past because its source is gone and all its | thoughts gone with it. Love remains the only present state, whose |
| W2:294.1 | for what must die? And yet a neutral thing does not see death, for | thoughts of fear are not invested there, nor is a mockery of love |
| W2:296.1 | You speak through me, for I would use no words but Yours and have no | thoughts which are apart from Yours, for only Yours are true. I would |
| W2:303.1 | Watch with me, angels; watch with me today. Let all God's holy | thoughts surround me and be still with me while Heaven's Son is born. |
| W2:WICR.1 | Creation is the sum of all God's | thoughts, in number infinite and everywhere without all limit. Only |
| W2:WICR.1 | that It created suffers any change. Forever and forever are God's | thoughts exactly as they were and as they are, unchanged through time |
| W2:WICR.2 | God's | thoughts are given all the power that Their own Creator has. For He |
| W2:325.1 | world. From judgment comes a world condemned. And from forgiving | thoughts a gentle world comes forth, with mercy for the holy Son of |
| W2:326.1 | Heaven of Your Love, where earth will disappear and separate | thoughts unite in glory as the Son of God. |
| W2:WIE.4 | To know Reality is not to see the ego and its | thoughts, its works, its acts, its laws and its beliefs, its dreams, |
| W2:334.1 | must be vain and dreams are gone, even while they are woven out of | thoughts that rest on false perception. Let me not accept such meager |
| W2:338.1 | him. He has no enemies, and he is safe from all external things. His | thoughts can frighten him, but since these thoughts belong to him |
| W2:338.1 | all external things. His thoughts can frighten him, but since these | thoughts belong to him alone, he has the power to change them and |
| W2:338.2 | my Father—only Yours. All other plans will fail. And I will have | thoughts that will frighten me until I learn that You have given me |
| W2:339.2 | everything I do; requesting only what You offer me, accepting only | thoughts You share with me. |
| W2:350.1 | memory depends on his forgiveness. What he is, is unaffected by his | thoughts. But what he looks upon is their direct result. Therefore, |

| M:17.7 | But what will now be your reaction to all magic | thoughts? They can but reawaken sleeping guilt, which you have hidden |
| M:17.8 | take the next step. The interpretation can be changed at last. Magic | thoughts need not lead to condemnation, for they do not really have |
| M:18.1 | real. And this can only be impossible. Reality is changeless. Magic | thoughts are but illusions. Otherwise salvation would be only the |
| M:18.2 | God's teachers’ major lesson is to learn how to react to magic | thoughts wholly without anger. Only in this way can they proclaim the |
| M:20.6 | is your heritage. The universe beyond the sun and stars and all the | thoughts of which you can conceive belong to you. God's peace is the |

| W1:26.1 | can be attacked, you are not invulnerable. You see attack as a real | threat. That is because you believe that you can really attack. And |
| W1:135.2 | is happening because it must contain what threatens you. A sense of | threat is an acknowledgment of an inherent weakness, a belief that |
| W1:135.3 | and its leaders and its gods, all serve but to preserve its sense of | threat. For no one walks the world in armature but must have terror |

| W1:153.2 | The world gives rise but to defensiveness. For | threat brings anger, anger makes attack seem reasonable, honestly |
| W1:153.2 | righteous in the name of self defense. Yet is defensiveness a double | threat. For it attests to weakness and sets up a system of defense |
| W1:153.4 | seems but to be an idle dream, beyond the possible. The sense of | threat the world encourages is so much deeper and so far beyond the |

| Tx:7.57 | in a completely insane way. It does not perceive its existence as | threatened by projecting the threat onto you and perceiving your |
| Tx:14.64 | experiences to confirm what you have learned. When your peace is | threatened or disturbed in any way, say to yourself, |
| Tx:18.46 | When you feel the holiness of your relationship is | threatened by anything, stop instantly and offer the Holy Spirit your |
| Tx:20.51 | escape. This place of darkness is not your home. Your temple is not | threatened. You are idolaters no longer. The Holy Spirit's purpose |
| W1:34.5 | are to be frequent and made whenever you feel your peace of mind is | threatened in any way. The purpose is to protect yourself from |

| Tx:12.71 | on the journey's end which is His goal. God's Son is not a traveler | through outer worlds. However holy his perception may become, no |
| Tx:12.74 | Then follow Him in joy, with faith that He will lead you safely | through all dangers to your peace of mind that this world sets before |
| Tx:12.76 | as it is my gift to you, so was it the Father's gift to me, given me | through His Spirit. The sound of it will banish sorrow from the Mind |
| Tx:13.7 | gift to everyone and everywhere, for miracles offered the Son of God | through the Holy Spirit attune you to reality. The Holy Spirit knows |
| Tx:13.26 | knows of creation. He would have you see and teach as He does, and | through Him. Yet what He knows, you do not know, though it is yours. |

| Tx:13.53 | heavy burden of its dullness that lies upon your minds], cannot see | through it. It deceives you because you chose to deceive yourselves. |
| Tx:13.81 | How gracious is it to decide all things | through Him Whose equal love is given equally to all alike! He leaves |
| Tx:13.82 | that is within Him, as it is within yourself. Unlearn isolation | through His loving guidance and learn of all the happy communication |
| Tx:14.5 | and everything of value there. Listen to the Holy Spirit and to God | through Him. He speaks of you to you. There is no guilt in you, for |
| Tx:14.14 | The temple you restore becomes your altar, for it was rebuilt | through you. And everything you give to God is yours. Thus He |
| Tx:14.21 | anything? Yet even this strange and twisted effort to communicate | through not communicating holds enough of love to make it meaningful |
| Tx:14.23 | concealed. We must open all doors and let the light come streaming | through. There are no hidden chambers in God's temple. Its gates are |
| Tx:14.31 | accepting it as His, with all His love as yours. All honor to you | through Him, and through Him unto God. |
| Tx:14.31 | His, with all His love as yours. All honor to you through Him, and | through Him unto God. |
| Tx:14.32 | save for glory is saved for it. He has promised the Father that | through Him you would be released from littleness to glory. To what |
| Tx:14.34 | the meeting place where God, united with His Son, speaks to His Son | through Him. Communication between what cannot be divided cannot |
| Tx:14.35 | Let your minds wander not | through darkened corridors, away from light's center. You may choose |
| Tx:14.36 | the place where you must meet with truth. And there you must be led, | through gentle understanding which can lead you nowhere else. Where |
| Tx:14.56 | Spirit in you, so does the Holy Spirit translate His communications | through you so you can understand them. God has no secret |
| Tx:14.70 | as holy by His Presence. Thank God that He is there and works | through you. And all His works are yours. He offers you a miracle |
| Tx:14.70 | are yours. He offers you a miracle with every one you let Him do | through you. |
| Tx:14.71 | in Him. God's Teacher is as like to His Creator as is His Son, and | through His Teacher does God proclaim His Oneness and His Son's. |
| Tx:14.75 | is impossible to know Him. Yet see the mighty works that He will do | through you, and you must be convinced you did them through Him. It |
| Tx:14.75 | that He will do through you, and you must be convinced you did them | through Him. It is impossible to deny the Source of effects so |
| Tx:15.13 | friend for them. The Holy Spirit gives their blessed instant to you | through your giving it. As you give it, He offers it to you. |
| Tx:15.15 | instant of perfect release. Offer the miracle of the holy instant | through the Holy Spirit and leave His giving it to you to Him. |
| Tx:15.17 | is wholly without fear. It will come, being the lesson God gives you | through the Teacher He has appointed to translate time into eternity. |
| Tx:15.17 | contained in time. His teaching is for you because His joy is yours. | Through Him you stand before God's altar, where He gently translates |
| Tx:15.19 | have chosen by their reactions. A Son of God who has been released | through the Holy Spirit in a brother, if the release is complete, is |
| Tx:15.20 | will doubt until you hear one witness whom you have wholly released | through the Holy Spirit. And then you will doubt no more. The holy |
| Tx:15.25 | it is. There is no doubt about its magnitude, for it reaches you | through Him from Magnitude. You do not have to strive for it because |
| Tx:15.28 | Decide for God | through Him. For littleness and the belief that you can be content |
| Tx:15.29 | give the gift of God, but not beyond you. For God would give Himself | through you. He reaches from you to everyone and beyond everyone to |
| Tx:15.62 | not the holy instant will be denied you, for I denied it not. And | through me the Holy Spirit gave it unto you, as you will give it. Let |
| Tx:15.63 | It is | through us that peace will come. Join me in the idea of peace, for in |
| Tx:15.64 | and you will experience the full communication of ideas with ideas. | Through your ability to do this, you will learn what you must be, for |
| Tx:15.65 | only to get something. And it would keep the giver bound to itself | through guilt. |
| Tx:15.66 | that no one recognizes it. For the ego always seems to attract | through love and has no attraction at all to anyone who perceives |
| Tx:15.66 | has no attraction at all to anyone who perceives that it attracts | through guilt. |
| Tx:15.72 | ideas as good or bad. What makes another guilty and holds him | through guilt is “good.” What releases him from guilt is “bad,” |
| Tx:15.75 | His voice your own need to communicate. The Holy Spirit cannot teach | through fear. And how can He communicate with you while you believe |
| Tx:15.77 | and so strong that it can overcome even this without fear. It is | through the holy instant that what seems impossible is accomplished, |
| Tx:15.80 | at all. You but seek in them what you have thrown away. And | through them you will never learn the value of what you have cast |
| Tx:15.82 | separate bodies you perceive. For all its parts are joined in God | through Christ, where they become like to their Father. For Christ |
| Tx:15.88 | denied his gift to you. His body cannot give it. And seek it not | through yours. Yet your minds are already continuous, and their union |
| Tx:15.92 | it. Let the Holy Spirit teach you, and let me celebrate your birth | through Him. The only gift I can accept of you is the gift I gave to |
| Tx:15.95 | is always fear and nothing else. It is not necessary to follow fear | through all the circuitous routes by which it burrows underground and |
| Tx:15.104 | is the condition for the awareness of your relationship with God. | Through guilt you exclude your Father and your brothers from |
| Tx:15.104 | guilt you exclude your Father and your brothers from yourself. | Through peace you invite them back and realize that they are where |
| Tx:16.1 | and would have you teach it is not understandable. When He relates | through you, He does not relate through the ego to another ego. He |
| Tx:16.1 | not understandable. When He relates through you, He does not relate | through the ego to another ego. He does not join in pain, knowing |
| Tx:16.2 | —if you will merely sit quietly by and let the Holy Spirit relate | through you, you will empathize with strength and both of you will |
| Tx:16.6 | And let Him offer you His strength and His perception to be shared | through you. |
| Tx:16.8 | will not meet them secretly, for He would share everything you give | through Him. And that is why He gives it. |
| Tx:16.9 | What you give | through Him is for the whole Sonship, not for part of it. Leave Him |
| Tx:16.13 | to convince you of the reality of what has clearly been accomplished | through your willingness, as long as you believe that you must |
| Tx:16.21 | yours. For certainly what He has taught, and what you have taught | through Him, have nothing in common with what you taught before He |
| Tx:16.25 | as part of the Self you do not know. And they communicate to you | through the Holy Spirit, and their power and gratitude to you for |
| Tx:16.31 | symbol of love is without meaning if love is everything. You will go | through this last undoing quite unharmed and will at last emerge as |
| Tx:16.40 | Would you not go | through fear to love? For such the journey seems to be. Love calls, |
| Tx:16.52 | And it is this theme which is acted out in the special relationship. | Through the death of your self, you think you can attack another self |
| Tx:16.74 | you seek. And even when the hatred and the savagery break briefly | through into awareness, the illusion of love is not profoundly |
| Tx:16.75 | the holy instant. We said before that the Holy Spirit must teach | through comparisons and uses opposites to point to truth. The holy |
| Tx:16.75 | holy instant is the opposite of the ego's fixed belief in salvation | through vengeance for the past. In the holy instant, it is accepted |
| Tx:16.80 | close relationship with Him is to accept relationships as real and | through their reality to give over all illusions for the reality of |
| Tx:17.6 | peace of mind because another is attempting to solve his problems | through fantasy, you are refusing to forgive yourself for just this |
| Tx:17.8 | This little step, so small it has escaped your notice, is a stride | through time into eternity and beyond all ugliness into beauty that |
| Tx:17.16 | And finally why all such relationships become the attempt at union | through the body, for only bodies can be seen as means for vengeance. |
| Tx:17.26 | brothers. They were not created to enable you to hurt yourselves | through them. They were created to create with you. This is the truth |
| Tx:17.30 | Spirit has not been separate from anyone since the separation. And | through Him have all your holy relationships been carefully preserved |
| Tx:17.37 | will not see the frame at all because the gift can only be accepted | through your willingness to focus all your attention on the picture. |
| Tx:17.42 | the glory and keeping no illusions of where they are. They are in us | through His ascendance. What He has given is His. It shines in every |
| Tx:17.56 | to Him Who gave you your release, and Who would extend it | through you. |
| Tx:17.62 | the viewpoint of the ego, for the ego believes in “solving” conflict | through fragmentation and does not perceive the situation as a whole. |
| Tx:17.67 | by you. You did not set it because holiness cannot be seen except | through faith, and your relationship was not holy because your faith |
| Tx:18.11 | Heaven is restored to all the Sonship | through your relationship, for in it lies the Sonship, whole and |
| Tx:18.12 | Return with me to Heaven, walking together out of this world and | through another to the loveliness and joy the other holds within it. |
| Tx:18.21 | relationship will be a means for undoing guilt in everyone blessed | through your holy relationship. It will be a happy dream, and one |
| Tx:18.21 | and one which you will share with all who come within your sight. | Through it, the blessing which the Holy Spirit has laid upon it will |
| Tx:18.21 | as means for the salvation of everyone. And He will waken everyone | through you who offered your relationship to Him. If you but |
| Tx:18.21 | relationship to Him. If you but recognized His gratitude! Or mine | through His! For we are joined as in one purpose, being of one mind |
| Tx:18.43 | Through your holy relationship, reborn and blessed in every holy | |
| Tx:18.45 | Who has a special function here. It will become the happy dream | through which He can spread joy to thousands on thousands who believe |
| Tx:18.52 | attacked the body. It can project its guilt, but it will not lose it | through projection. And though it clearly can misperceive the |
| Tx:18.62 | to this place of refuge, where you can be yourself in peace. Not | through destruction, not through a “breaking out,” but merely by a |
| Tx:18.62 | where you can be yourself in peace. Not through destruction, not | through a “breaking out,” but merely by a quiet “melting in.” For |
| Tx:18.69 | the body's value from your mind. Here is the quick and open door | through which you slip past centuries of effort and escape from time. |
| Tx:18.86 | The barren sands, the darkness and the lifelessness are seen only | through the body's eyes. Its vision is distorted, and the messages it |
| Tx:18.87 | God can bring you there if you are willing to follow the Holy Spirit | through seeming terror, trusting Him not to abandon you and leave you |
| Tx:18.87 | Him at the outside ring of fear, but He would lead you safely | through and far beyond. |
| Tx:18.92 | substantial. You will not bruise yourself against them in traveling | through. Let your Guide teach you their unsubstantial nature as He |
| Tx:18.97 | the world of shadows, and its unholy purpose has been safely brought | through the barriers of guilt, washed with forgiveness, and set |
| Tx:18.97 | forgiveness to remind you of all that lies beyond it. Yet it is | through forgiveness that it will be remembered. |
| Tx:19.2 | share. And since He shares it, He has given it, and so He heals | through you. It is this joining Him in a united purpose which makes |
| Tx:19.6 | set up a goal forever impossible to attain, for part of it is sought | through the body, thought of as a means for seeking out reality |
| Tx:19.6 | through the body, thought of as a means for seeking out reality | through attack, while the other part would heal and therefore calls |
| Tx:19.12 | Faith is the gift of God, | through Him Whom God has given you. Faithlessness looks upon the Son |
| Tx:19.12 | upon the Son of God and judges him unworthy of forgiveness. But | through the eyes of faith, the Son of God is seen already forgiven, |
| Tx:19.12 | him, but would see in him only what it would see in you. It sees not | through the body's eyes nor looks to bodies for its justification. It |
| Tx:19.12 | you share it with Him. Faith is a gift you offer to the Son of God | through Him, and wholly acceptable to his Father as to him. And |
| Tx:19.13 | in each other. Yet faith unites you in the holiness you see, not | through the body's eyes but in the sight of Him Who joined you and in |
| Tx:19.13 | both of you. And be you healed by grace together, that you may heal | through faith. |
| Tx:19.14 | will you see the miracle of your relationship as it was made again | through faith. And there it is that you will realize that there is |
| Tx:19.21 | sacrosanct to its thought system and quite unapproachable except | through reverence and awe. It is the most “holy” concept in the ego's |
| Tx:19.24 | and so easily escaped from that its whole correction is like walking | through a mist into the sun? For that is all it is. Perhaps you would |
| Tx:19.25 | And only an avenger with a mind unlike your own could stamp it out | through fear. |
| Tx:19.30 | unchangeable and that the mind must accept as true what it is told | through it. If it does not obey, the mind is judged insane. The only |
| Tx:19.41 | He would bring peace to everyone, and how can He do this except | through you? Would you let a little bank of sand, a wall of dust, a |
| Tx:19.51 | and return with word of what they saw. Fear's messengers are trained | through terror, and they tremble when their master calls upon them to |
| Tx:19.53 | has given you love's messengers to send instead of those you trained | through fear. They are as eager to return to you what they hold dear |
| Tx:19.56 | of you. To the ego sin means death, and so Atonement is achieved | through murder. Salvation is looked upon as a way by which the Son of |
| Tx:19.64 | outside. How easily the gates are opened from within to let peace | through to bless the tired world! Can it be difficult for us to walk |
| Tx:19.71 | It is impossible to seek for pleasure | through the body and not find pain. It is essential that this |
| Tx:19.76 | Holy Spirit is both the sender and the receiver. For what is sent | through Him returns to Him, seeking itself along the way and finding |
| Tx:19.78 | laugh at death. The sentence sin would lay upon him he can escape | through your forgiveness. |
| Tx:19.83 | You who are dedicated to the incorruptible have been given | through your acceptance the power to release from corruption. What |
| Tx:19.97 | the ego that led you here. No obstacle to peace can be surmounted | through its help. It does not open up its secrets and bid you look on |
| Tx:19.97 | innocence born of complete forgiveness of each other's illusions and | through the eyes of faith, which sees them not. |
| Tx:19.110 | Here is the only purpose that gives this world and the long journey | through this world whatever meaning lies in them. Beyond this they |
| Tx:20.6 | Gifts are not made | through bodies if they be truly given and received. For bodies can |
| Tx:20.14 | the thorns and nails, and his strong arm is free to guide you safely | through them and beyond. Walk with him now rejoicing, for the savior |
| Tx:20.15 | Here is your savior and your friend, released from crucifixion | through your vision and free to lead you now where he would be. He |
| Tx:20.19 | Do you like what you have made—a world of murder and attack | through which you thread your timid way through constant dangers, |
| Tx:20.19 | a world of murder and attack through which you thread your timid way | through constant dangers, alone and frightened, hoping at most that |
| Tx:20.20 | you not wondered what the world is really like; how it would look | through happy eyes? The world you see is but a judgment on yourself. |
| Tx:20.23 | its arrogance and yet so tiny and so meaningless it slips unnoticed | through the universe of truth, becomes your guide. To it you turn to |
| Tx:20.31 | And thus their freedom is established and maintained. It is upheld | through all temptation to imprison and to be imprisoned. It is of |
| Tx:20.38 | made glad. Forget not Who has given you the gifts you give, and | through your not forgetting this will you remember Who gave the gifts |
| Tx:20.40 | Father, and you will recognize it as you receive his Father's gift | through him. What is in him will shine so brightly in your grateful |
| Tx:20.41 | would do? There is but one. The little breath of eternity that runs | through time like golden light is all the same—nothing before it, |
| Tx:20.43 | the gift in both of you will offer and receive it for you both. And | through His vision will you see it, and through His understanding |
| Tx:20.43 | receive it for you both. And through His vision will you see it, and | through His understanding recognize it and love it as your own. |
| Tx:20.48 | relationships. The body is the ego's chosen weapon for seeking power | through relationships. And its relationships must be unholy, for what |
| Tx:20.54 | safe return. Here is the way to true relationships held gently open, | through which you walk together, leaving the body thankfully behind |
| Tx:20.65 | The body cannot be looked upon except | through judgment. To see the body is the sign that you lack vision |
| Tx:20.65 | serve His purpose. How can a holy relationship achieve its purpose | through the means of sin? Judgment you taught yourself; vision is |
| Tx:20.67 | is given you who see your brother sinless. Truth is restored to you | through your desire, as it was lost to you through your desire for |
| Tx:20.67 | Truth is restored to you through your desire, as it was lost to you | through your desire for something else. Open the holy place which you |
| Tx:20.72 | it in any form and seeing it everywhere, in everything. Look | through its eyes, and everything will stand condemned before you. All |
| Tx:21.3 | and fall because of what they did not recognize, or walk unharmed | through open doorways which they thought were closed. And so it is |
| Tx:21.3 | the stones you did not recognize, but fail to be aware you can go | through the doors you thought were closed but which stand open before |
| Tx:21.5 | There is no need to learn | through pain. And gentle lessons are acquired joyously and are |
| Tx:21.6 | it. They think they know their way about in it. They learned it, not | through joyous lessons, but through the stern necessity of limits |
| Tx:21.6 | way about in it. They learned it, not through joyous lessons, but | through the stern necessity of limits they believed they could not |
| Tx:21.6 | their choice is that or nothing. They hate the world they learned | through pain. And everything they think is in it serves to remind |
| Tx:21.32 | and vision are the means by which the goal of holiness is reached. | Through them the Holy Spirit leads you to the real world and away |
| Tx:21.32 | is reached. In Heaven they are unknown. Yet Heaven is reached | through them. |
| Tx:21.77 | attack. And what is this decision but the choice whether to see him | through the body's eyes or let him be revealed to you through vision? |
| Tx:21.77 | to see him through the body's eyes or let him be revealed to you | through vision? How this decision leads to its effects is not your |
| Tx:21.84 | up the wish for the inconstant. Joy cannot be perceived except | through constant vision. And constant vision can be given only those |
| Tx:22.2 | there's nothing left to steal and then move on. And so they wander | through a world of strangers unlike themselves, living with their |
| Tx:22.6 | you think is you. Reason would tell you that the world you see | through eyes which are not yours must make no sense to you. To whom |
| Tx:22.7 | you do not understand it. God has no secrets. He does not lead you | through a world of misery, waiting to tell you at the journey's end |
| Tx:22.8 | you blind, dependent on the self you think you made to lead you | through the world it made for you. |
| Tx:22.10 | But what he hears and does not understand will be his native tongue, | through which he will communicate with those around him, and they |
| Tx:22.11 | by anything except yourself. For no two people can unite except | through Christ, Whose vision sees them one. |
| Tx:22.13 | have been restored to those that join, for this they could not do | through bodies. What, then, has joined them? Reason will tell you |
| Tx:22.13 | them? Reason will tell you that they must have seen each other | through a vision not of the body and communicated in a language the |
| Tx:22.14 | Here is the first direct perception that you have made. You made it | through awareness older than perception and yet reborn in just an |
| Tx:22.21 | let the Holy Spirit's purpose be accomplished, they can be used. And | through their use will you gain faith in them. Yet to the ego this |
| Tx:22.30 | see your errors and make way for their correction. For reason sees | through errors, telling you what you thought was real is not. Reason |
| Tx:22.31 | so thick it would be madness to attempt to pass it. Yet reason sees | through it easily because it is an error. The form it takes cannot |
| Tx:22.34 | they represent left not its maker, and it is their maker that sees | through them. What was its maker's goal but not to see? For this the |
| Tx:22.44 | heavy-seeming block, and you will learn how easily your fingers slip | through its nothingness. It is no solid wall. And only an illusion |
| Tx:22.49 | of immovability be long defended from what is quietly passed | through and gone beyond? |
| Tx:22.56 | And who would fail to recognize a gift he let be laid in Heaven | through himself? The gentle service that you give the Holy Spirit is |
| Tx:22.57 | could there be you will not recognize as a mistake—a shadow | through which you walk completely undismayed? God would let nothing |
| Tx:22.58 | You will see your value | through each other's eyes, and each one is released as he beholds his |
| Tx:22.58 | his savior in place of the attacker who he thought was there. | Through this releasing is the world released. This is your part in |
| Tx:23.6 | of Heaven. How beautiful it is to walk clean and redeemed and happy | through a world in bitter need of the redemption that your innocence |
| Tx:23.14 | is the birth of fear. Yet what is born of nothing cannot win reality | through battle. Why would you fill your world with conflicts with |
| Tx:23.31 | You who believe you walk in sanity, with feet on solid ground and | through a world where meaning can be found, consider this: [These are |
| Tx:23.42 | it may seem to be, a blessing and a sign the Voice for God speaks | through you to your brother? The wrapping does not make the gift you |
| Tx:24.25 | in place of yours. How could this readiness be reached save | through the sight of all your misery and the awareness that your plan |
| Tx:24.25 | failed and will forever fail to bring you peace and joy of any kind? | Through this despair you travel now, yet it is but illusion of |
| Tx:24.46 | ears may hear no more the sound of battle and of death. He reaches | through them, holding out His hand that everyone may bless all living |
| Tx:24.53 | made for all it looks upon. And that is made, not of itself, but | through the Voice that speaks for God in everything that lives and |
| Tx:24.55 | yours to look upon. Yet will you choose in countless situations and | through time which seems to have no end until the truth be your |
| Tx:24.61 | must apply to what you do with it as your ally. For what you do | through Christ it does not know. To Him this judgment makes no sense |
| Tx:24.71 | itself and no escape within its sight. Its course is sure when seen | through its own eyes. It grows and withers, flourishes and dies. And |
| Tx:25.4 | mind is His. And so it must be yours. His holiness directs the body | through the mind at one with Him. And you are manifest unto your holy |
| Tx:25.7 | may release all that it looks upon unto itself. Its radiance shines | through each body that it looks upon and brushes all its darkness |
| Tx:25.7 | light merely by looking past it to the light. The veil is lifted | through its gentleness, and nothing hides the face of Christ from its |
| Tx:25.8 | the link that has been given you to join the truth may reach to you | through what you understand. Father and Son and Holy Spirit are as |
| Tx:25.38 | But what is there to see by searching for your savior, seeing Him | through sightless eyes? |
| Tx:25.40 | to him alone. Nor can it be regained unless the way is shown to him | through you that you may find it, walking by his side. |
| Tx:25.42 | for you. In your forgiveness will you understand His love for you; | through your attack believe He hates you, thinking Heaven must be |
| Tx:25.82 | to this course. For miracles depend on justice. Not as it is seen | through this world's eyes, but as God knows it, and as knowledge is |
| Tx:26.3 | The little that the body fences off becomes the self, preserved | through sacrifice of all the rest. And all the rest must lose this |
| Tx:26.10 | same to Him, because each one is solved in just the same respect and | through the same approach. The aspects which need solving do not |
| Tx:26.33 | in time and know not it is gone, the Holy Spirit still guides you | through the infinitely small and senseless maze you still perceive in |
| Tx:26.44 | and made it real. And it is real to you. It is not nothing and | through its perceived reality has entered all the world of sick |
| Tx:27.45 | has it been proved and must compel belief. No one is healed | through double messages. If you wish only to be healed, you heal. |
| Tx:27.45 | this possible. But if you are afraid of healing, then it cannot come | through you. The only thing that is required for a healing is a lack |
| Tx:29.1 | let Him not come too close, and leave a gap between you and His love | through which you can escape if there be need for you to flee. |
| Tx:29.23 | darkness may be lifted from your mind. When light has come to him | through your forgiveness, he will not forget his savior, leaving him |
| Tx:29.23 | your face he saw the light that he would keep beside him as he walks | through darkness to the everlasting light. |
| Tx:29.70 | judgment, for he has judged no one, nor has sought to be released | through judgment from what judgment must impose. And all the while he |
| Tx:30.2 | with the ones you recognize, a set begins to form which sees you | through the rest. It is not wise to let yourself become preoccupied |
| Tx:30.33 | knows is but your knowledge, saved for you that you may do your will | through Him. God asks you do your will. He joins with you. He did not |
| Tx:30.35 | thus the rule of fear established there. Now hear God speak to you | through Him Who is His Voice and yours as well, reminding you that it |
| Tx:30.35 | Himself in all creation's birth. Remember He Who has created you and | through your will created everything. Not one created thing but gives |
| Tx:30.45 | know not it is there. Yet still and white and lovely will it shine | through all eternity. There was no time it was not there; no instant |
| Tx:30.88 | Do not continue thus, my brothers. We have one Interpreter. And | through His use of symbols are we joined so that they mean the same |
| Tx:31.74 | sight. All things you see are images because you look on them as | through a barrier which dims your sight and warps your vision, so |
| Tx:31.78 | holiness while you see him apart from yours? For holiness is seen | through holy eyes that look upon the innocence within and thus expect |
| Tx:31.93 | and in constant fear. For it is given you to join with him, and | through the Christ in you unveil his eyes and let him look upon the |
| Tx:31.95 | they choose. And I give thanks for them. Salvation's song will echo | through the world with every choice they make. For we are one in |
| W1:26.1 | you believe that you can really attack. And what would have effects | through you must also have effects on you. It is this law that will |
| W1:35.2 | environment. What you see while you believe you are in it is seen | through the eyes of the image. This is not vision. Images cannot see. |
| W1:35.4 | All of them are equally unreal because you do not look upon yourself | through the eyes of holiness. |
| W1:37.1 | in the world or why you are here. Your purpose is to see the world | through your own holiness. Thus are you and the world blessed |
| W1:37.1 | No one loses; nothing is taken away from anyone; everyone gains | through your holy vision. It signifies the end of sacrifice because |
| W1:37.2 | why he is losing. Yet is his wholeness restored to his awareness | through your vision. Your holiness blesses him by asking nothing of |
| W1:38.1 | you as a Son of God, at one with the Mind of his Creator. | Through your holiness, the power of God is made manifest. Through |
| W1:38.1 | Creator. Through your holiness, the power of God is made manifest. | Through your holiness the power of God is made available. And there |
| W1:41.2 | Deep within you is everything that is perfect, ready to radiate | through you and out into the whole world. It will cure all sorrow and |
| W1:41.4 | first real attempt to get past this dark and heavy cloud and to go | through it to the light beyond. |
| W1:42.2 | are and in whatever circumstances you find yourself. Your passage | through time and space is not random. You cannot but be in the right |
| W1:43.9 | I see | through the eyes of forgiveness. I see the world as blessed. The |
| W1:44.5 | made up. Properly speaking, this is the release from hell. Perceived | through the ego's eyes, it is loss of identity and a descent into |
| W1:49.1 | It is quite possible to listen to God's Voice all | through the day without interrupting your regular activities in any |
| W1:50.3 | unfailing. This is the answer to whatever confronts you today. | Through the Love of God in you, you can resolve all seeming |
| W1:54.6 | has been changed. I would behold the proof that what has been done | through me has enabled love to replace fear, laughter to replace |
| W1:58.2 | guilty. I can accept the innocence that is the truth about me. Seen | through understanding eyes, the holiness of the world is all I see, |
| W1:59.2 | me in absolute peace? How can I suffer when love and joy surround me | through Him? Let me not cherish illusions about myself. I am perfect |
| W1:59.4 | I can see apart from Him. It is these I choose when I try to see | through the body's eyes. Yet the vision of Christ has been given me |
| W1:59.4 | Yet the vision of Christ has been given me to replace them. It is | through this vision that I choose to see. |
| W1:59.5 | God is the only Light. Therefore if I am to see, it must be | through Him. I have tried to define what seeing is, and I have been |
| W1:60.3 | [47] God is the Strength in which I trust. It is not my own strength | through which I forgive. It is through the strength of God in me, |
| W1:60.3 | I trust. It is not my own strength through which I forgive. It is | through the strength of God in me, which I am remembering as I |
| W1:60.5 | [49] God's Voice speaks to me all | through the day. There is not a moment in which God's Voice ceases to |
| W1:62.1 | is the demonstration that you are the light of the world. | Through your forgiveness does the truth about yourself return to your |
| W1:63.1 | you who can learn to recognize the means for letting this be done | through you! What purpose could you have that would bring you greater |
| W1:63.4 | The light of the world brings peace to every mind | through my forgiveness. I am the means God has appointed for the |
| W1:64.4 | The world's salvation awaits your forgiveness, because | through it does the Son of God escape from all illusions and thus |
| W1:64.5 | us remind ourselves of it in the morning and again at night and all | through the day as well. |
| W1:66.10 | Thus it must be that your function is established by God | through His Voice or is made by the ego which you have made to |
| W1:67.6 | about yourself. Yet perhaps you will succeed in going past that and | through the interval of thoughtlessness to the awareness of a blazing |
| W1:69.5 | seem to be all there is to see. Therefore you do not attempt to go | through them and past them, which is the only way in which you would |
| W1:69.6 | feel them resting on your cheeks and forehead and eyelids as you go | through them. Go on; clouds cannot stop you. |
| W1:69.8 | is given you, and you will yet receive it. Try, as you attempt to go | through the clouds to the light, to hold this confidence in your |
| W1:69.8 | with God must succeed. Then let the power of God work in you and | through you, that His Will and yours may be done. |
| W1:70.12 | clouds and in the light beyond. Remember that you will have to go | through the clouds before you can reach the light. But remember also |
| W1:72.2 | keeping it separate and alone and unable to reach other minds except | through the body which was made to imprison it. The limit on |
| W1:76.3 | think a small round pellet or some fluid pushed into your veins | through a sharpened needle will ward off death. You really think you |
| W1:76.12 | Let us today open God's channels to Him and let His Will extend | through us to Him. Thus is creation endlessly increased. His Voice |
| W1:78.6 | already. He will be the one of whom we ask God's Son be shown to us. | Through seeing him behind the grievances that we have held against |
| W1:78.10 | from him to you, seeing no separation in God's Son. And what you see | through Him will free you both. |
| W1:78.11 | the sight of him. You have allowed the Holy Spirit to express | through him the role God gave Him that you might be saved. God thanks |
| W1:R2.3 | will has power over all fantasies and dreams. Trust it to see you | through and carry you beyond them all. |
| W1:81.4 | the light of the world in me. Let the light of the world shine | through this appearance. This shadow will vanish before the light. |
| W1:81.5 | [62] Forgiveness is my function as the light of the world. It is | through accepting my function that I will see the light in me. And in |
| W1:82.2 | [63] The light of the world brings peace to every mind | through my forgiveness. My forgiveness is the means by which the |
| W1:82.2 | is the means by which the light of the world finds expression | through me. My forgiveness is the means by which I become aware of |
| W1:82.4 | to yours, [name]. I share the light of the world with you, [name]. | Through my forgiveness I can see this as it is. |
| W1:90.2 | the solution is a miracle. And I invite the solution to come to me | through my forgiveness of the grievance and my welcome of the miracle |
| W1:91.13 | and all His thoughts. It is from Them your strength will come. It is | through Their strong support that you will feel the strength in you. |
| W1:92.3 | His strength denies your weakness. It is your weakness that sees | through the body's eyes, peering about in darkness to behold the |
| W1:92.3 | the sad, the poor, the starving, and the joyless. These are seen | through eyes which cannot see and cannot bless. |
| W1:95.17 | the veil of darkness from the world and let the light in you come | through to teach the world the truth about itself. You are One Self, |
| W1:96.9 | search for Him within your mind. Salvation comes from this One Self | through Him Who is the bridge between your mind and it. |
| W1:97.5 | with Him you are the Spirit that abides in Him, and Which calls | through His Voice to every living thing; offers His sight to everyone |
| W1:97.8 | the Holy Spirit speaks to you, and let them echo round the world | through Him: |
| W1:97.10 | Expressed | through you, the Holy Spirit will accept this gift which you received |
| W1:99.11 | let His Light seek out and lighten up all darkened spots and shine | through them to join them to the rest. It is God's Will your mind be |
| W1:101.1 | just and cannot be escaped. Salvation thus cannot be purchased but | through suffering. |
| W1:105.6 | what completes Him must complete His Son as well. He cannot give | through loss. No more can you. Receive His gift of joy and peace |
| W1:106.2 | Listen and hear your Father speak to you | through His appointed Voice, Which silences the thunder of the |
| W1:106.5 | and wakes all those who sleep and cannot see. God calls to them | through you. He needs your voice to speak to them, for who could |
| W1:106.5 | to them, for who could reach God's Son except his Father calling | through your Self? |
| W1:106.7 | and you will hear a Voice Which will resound throughout the world | through you. The Bringer of all miracles has need that you receive |
| W1:106.12 | Today the holy Word of God is kept | through your receiving it to give away, so you can teach the world |
| W1:107.11 | to Him today and make your pledge to let His function be fulfilled | through you. To share His function is to share His joy. His |
| W1:108.12 | of one to whom to give your gifts. He represents the others, and | through him you give to all. |
| W1:109.3 | “I rest in God.” Completely undismayed this thought will carry you | through storms and strife, past misery and pain, past loss and death, |
| W1:109.4 | you gave your voice to God and now you rest in Him and let Him speak | through you. |
| W1:111.3 | Miracles are seen in light, and light and strength are one. I see | through strength, the gift of God to me. My weakness is the dark His |
| W1:120.2 | [109] I rest in God. I rest in God today and let Him work in me and | through me, while I rest in Him in quiet and in perfect certainty. |
| W1:121.6 | a Teacher other than yourself, who represents the other Self in you. | Through Him you learn how to forgive the self you think you made and |
| W1:121.7 | your own how to forgive itself. Each one awaits release from hell | through you and turns to you imploringly for Heaven here and now. It |
| W1:121.7 | as its hope, do you become your own. The unforgiving mind must learn | through your forgiveness that it has been saved from hell. And as you |
| W1:121.9 | are the same. Yet we will try to learn today that they are one | through practicing forgiving toward one whom you think of as an enemy |
| W1:121.11 | never noticed. Try to find some little spark of brightness shining | through the ugly picture which you hold of him. Look at this picture |
| W1:122.14 | this reminder, which has power to hold your gifts in your awareness | through the day: |
| W1:125.2 | This world will change | through you. No other means can save it, for God's plan is simply |
| W1:127.8 | dark illusion of your own reality and what love means. He will shine | through your idle thoughts today and help you understand the truth of |
| W1:131.2 | meaningless as they are. Who can use such senseless means and hope | through them to gain in anything? Where can they lead? And what could |
| W1:131.17 | Heaven sent you that you might approach this door some day and | through His aid slip effortlessly past it to the light. Today that |
| W1:132.20 | Throughout the day, increase the freedom sent | through your ideas to all the world, and say whenever you are tempted |
| W1:133.1 | in teaching there is benefit, particularly after you have gone | through what seems theoretical and far from what the student has |
| W1:134.7 | illusions of the world. It sees their nothingness and looks right | through the thousand forms in which they may appear. It looks on lies |
| W1:134.19 | Forgiveness should be practiced | through the day, for there will be so many times when you forget its |
| W1:134.19 | and attack yourself. When this occurs, allow your mind to see | through this illusion as you tell yourself: |
| W1:135.9 | apart from you, and it becomes a healthy, serviceable instrument | through which the mind can operate until its usefulness is over. Who |
| W1:135.12 | mind does not plan. It carries out the plans which it receives | through listening to Wisdom that is not its own. It waits until it |
| W1:137.16 | Let healing be | through you this very day. And as you rest in quiet, be prepared to |
| W1:138.5 | the framework of this course. Ours are teaching goals to be attained | through learning how to reach them, what they are, and what they |
| W1:R4.5 | Their purpose is to show you something else and hold correction off | through self-deceptions made to take its place. |
| W1:R4.10 | word shine with the meaning God has given it as it was given to you | through His Voice. Let each idea that you review that day give you |
| W1:R4.12 | made the day a special time of blessing and of happiness for us and | through our faithfulness restored the world from darkness to the |
| W1:151.2 | the world you see. You do not really question what is shown you | through the body's eyes. Nor do you ask why you believe it, even |
| W1:151.16 | lilies on the world, replacing witnesses to sin and death. | Through your transfiguration is the world redeemed and joyfully |
| W1:151.17 | the joyous news that truth has no illusions and the peace of God, | through us, belongs to everyone. |
| W1:153.9 | fulfill our chosen purpose as our ministry extends its holy blessing | through the world. |
| W1:153.19 | abides in us. We will remind ourselves that He remains beside us | through the day and never leaves our weakness unsupported by His |
| W1:154.3 | It is | through His ability to hear One Voice Which is His own that you |
| W1:154.4 | It is this joining | through the Voice of God of Father and of Son that sets apart |
| W1:154.11 | may recognize His gifts to us. He needs our voice that He may speak | through us. He needs our hands to hold His messages and carry them to |
| W1:155.5 | their footsteps on the way which God has opened up to you, and them | through you. |
| W1:155.6 | to grasp. Now can the truth, which walks ahead of you, speak to them | through illusion, for the road leads past illusion now, while on the |
| W1:157.9 | the holiest. This you will never teach, for you attained it not | through learning. Yet the vision speaks of your remembrance of what |
| W1:164.8 | in which our Savior looks on us and offer it the freedom given us | through His forgiving vision, now our own. Open the curtain in your |
| W1:168.6 | His Son. To Him we pray today, returning but the words He gave to us | through His Own Voice, His Word, His Love: |
| W1:169.11 | are laid, to be returned by you from holy instants you receive | through grace in your experience to all who see the light that |
| W1:170.13 | Now do your eyes belong to Christ, and He looks | through them. Now your voice belongs to God and echoes His. And now |
| W1:R5.11 | them to the world. You are my voice, my eyes, my feet, my hands, | through which I save the world. The Self from Which I call to you is |
| W1:184.7 | of the world. It is a phase of learning everyone who comes must go | through. But the sooner he perceives on what it rests, how |
| W1:184.14 | Which He has given them. It is this Name we use in practicing. And | through Its use, all foolish separations disappear which kept us |
| W1:188.2 | or from a truer source, that is not but the shadow of the seen | through inward vision. There perception starts, and there it ends. It |
| W1:189.2 | which to stay a while. It blesses you throughout the day and watches | through the night as silent guardian of your holy sleep. It sees |
| W1:189.3 | the Love of God reveals. It is so different from the world you see | through darkened eyes of malice and of fear that one belies the |
| W1:189.9 | to him. He does not need His Son to show Him how to find His way. | Through every opened door His love shines outward from its home |
| W1:193.11 | remains an unforgiveness hiding in the mind which sees the pain | through eyes the mind directs. |
| W1:198.15 | us now. For He would give to us the gift that God has given us | through Him today. Now is it time for your deliverance. The time has |
| W1:199.7 | as bound and helpless and afraid. Let love replace their fears | through you. Accept salvation now, and give your mind to Him Who |
| W1:200.2 | chaos, joy of pain, and Heaven out of hell. Attempt no more to win | through losing, nor to die to live. You cannot but be asking for |
| W1:200.3 | have but to look with open eyes to find that Heaven lies before you, | through a door that opens easily to welcome you? |
| W1:217.1 | Who should give thanks for my salvation but myself? And how but | through salvation can I find the Self to Whom my thanks are due? I am |
| W1:218.1 | condemnation injures me. My condemnation keeps my vision dark, and | through my sightless eyes I cannot see the vision of my glory. Yet |
| W2:I.4 | hearts. And wait for Him to take the step to us that He has told us, | through His Voice, He would not fail to take when we invited Him. He |
| W2:I.6 | the journey's end. Accept these little gifts of thanks from us, as | through Christ's vision we behold a world beyond the one we made and |
| W2:WF.5 | Do nothing, then, and let forgiveness show you what to do | through Him Who is your Guide, your Savior and Defender, strong in |
| W2:WS.4 | holds a hint of all the glory given us by God. The grass is pushing | through the soil, the trees are budding now, and birds have come to |
| W2:237.2 | ears which listen to the Voice of God today. Father, I come to You | through Him Who is Your Son and my true Self as well. Amen. |
| W2:WIW.5 | function. We must save the world. For we who made it must behold it | through the eyes of Christ, that what was made to die be restored to |
| W2:247.2 | all to me as part of You and my own Self as well. Today I honor You | through them, and thus I hope this day to recognize my Self. |
| W2:256.1 | The way to God is | through forgiveness here. There is no other way. If sin had not been |
| W2:260.1 | Identity. And let my sinlessness arise again before Christ's vision, | through which I would look upon my brothers and myself today. |
| W2:263.2 | still remain outside the gate of Heaven, let us look on all we see | through holy vision and the eyes of Christ. Let all appearances seem |
| W2:269.1 | and look beyond them. It is given me to find a new perception | through the Guide You gave to me and through His lessons to surpass |
| W2:269.1 | me to find a new perception through the Guide You gave to me and | through His lessons to surpass perception and return to truth. I ask |
| W2:270.2 | The quiet of today will bless our hearts, and | through them peace will come to everyone. Christ is our eyes today. |
| W2:270.2 | them peace will come to everyone. Christ is our eyes today. And | through His sight, we offer healing to the world through Him, the |
| W2:270.2 | our eyes today. And through His sight, we offer healing to the world | through Him, the holy Son whom God created whole, the holy Son whom |
| W2:274.1 | his sinlessness, the love of brother to his brother and his friend. | Through this I am redeemed. Through this as well the truth will enter |
| W2:274.1 | brother to his brother and his friend. Through this I am redeemed. | Through this as well the truth will enter where illusions were, light |
| W2:275.2 | that I bring is given me. Father, Your Voice protects all things | through me. |
| W2:WIHS.1 | the gap between reality and dreams, perception leads to knowledge | through the grace that God has given Him, to be His gift to everyone |
| W2:285.2 | Father, my holiness is Yours. Let me rejoice in it and | through forgiveness be restored to sanity. Your Son is still as You |
| W2:WIRW.1 | it stands for what is opposite to what you made. Your world is seen | through eyes of fear and brings the witnesses of terror to your mind. |
| W2:WIRW.1 | of terror to your mind. The real world cannot be perceived except | through eyes forgiveness blesses, so they see a world where terror is |
| W2:WIRW.2 | your world contains. The real world shows a world seen differently, | through quiet eyes and with a mind at peace. Nothing but rest is |
| W2:291.1 | Christ's vision looks | through me today. His sight shows me all things forgiven and at peace |
| W2:296.1 | that all the world may listen to Your Voice and hear Your Word | through me. I am resolved to let You speak through me, for I would |
| W2:296.1 | Voice and hear Your Word through me. I am resolved to let You speak | through me, for I would use no words but Yours and have no thoughts |
| W2:296.2 | rescue us from hell when we allow His teaching to persuade the world | through us to seek and find the easy path to God! |
| W2:298.1 | as mine, sure that in that alone I will be saved, sure that I go | through fear to meet my Love. |
| W2:WISC.5 | the Son of God is one in us, and we can reach our Father's Love | through him. |
| W2:301.1 | is it only what You will. Let me today behold it uncondemned | through happy eyes forgiveness has released from all distortion. Let |
| W2:304.1 | of mind reflected outward. I would bless the world by looking on it | through the eyes of Christ. And I will look upon the certain signs |
| W2:320.2 | can do all things in me and then extend to all the world as well | through me. There is no limit on Your Will. And so all power has been |
| W2:WICR.1 | are God's thoughts exactly as they were and as they are, unchanged | through time and after time is done. |
| W2:321.2 | will be freed along with us. How glad are we to find our freedom | through the certain way our Father has established. And how sure is |
| W2:329.2 | His, and all of us are one because His Will is shared by all of us. | Through it we recognize that we are one. Through it we find our way |
| W2:329.2 | is shared by all of us. Through it we recognize that we are one. | Through it we find our way at last to God. |
| W2:332.1 | in its own futility. Yet with forgiveness does the light shine | through the dream of darkness, offering it hope and giving it the |
| W2:340.1 | For he will hear Your Voice directing him to find Christ's vision | through forgiveness and be free forever from all suffering. Thanks |
| W2:WAI.3 | of salvation. We accept our part as saviors of the world, which | through our joint forgiveness is redeemed. And this, our gift, is |
| W2:WAI.4 | Ours are the eyes | through which Christ's vision sees a world redeemed from every |
| W2:351.1 | me, and my way secure and clear. Choose, then, for me, my Father, | through Your Voice. For He alone gives judgment in Your Name. |
| W2:352.1 | Forgiveness looks on sinlessness alone and judges not. | Through this I come to You. Judgment will bind my eyes and make me |
| W2:FL.4 | life that show the way to us. In him resides salvation, offered us | through our forgiveness given unto him. |
| W2:FL.6 | we did not understand and ask Him to help us to learn His lessons | through the Voice of His own Teacher. Would He hurt His Son? Or would |
| W2:E.4 | you in His hands, to be His faithful followers, with Him as Guide | through every difficulty and all pain that you may think is real. Nor |
| W2:E.6 | God's Son as we would love him, and He teaches us how to behold him | through His eyes and love him as He does. You do not walk alone. |

| M:4.3 | but not of them. It is this Power that keeps all things safe. It is | through this Power that the teachers of God look on a forgiven world. |
| M:4.5 | First, they must go | through what might be called “a period of undoing.” This need not be |
| M:4.6 | Next, the teacher of God must go | through a “period of sorting-out.” This is always somewhat difficult, |
| M:4.7 | The third stage | through which the teachers of God must go can be called a “period of |

| M:8.3 | the body's eyes to find it. The body's eyes will never see except | through differences. Yet it is not the messages they bring on which |
| M:10.2 | On the contrary, he puts himself in a position where judgment | through him rather than by him can occur. And this judgment is |
| M:11.3 | to answer yours. Gently His Judgment substitutes for yours. And | through this substitution is the ununderstandable made |
| M:12.2 | forms? Their minds are one; their joining is complete. And God works | through them now as One, for that is what they are. |
| M:12.3 | Voice at all, and even they cannot communicate His messages directly | through the Spirit Which gave them. They need a medium through which |
| M:12.3 | directly through the Spirit Which gave them. They need a medium | through which communication becomes possible to those who do not |
| M:12.4 | certain that the body's function is but to let God's Voice speak | through it to human ears. And these ears will carry to the mind of |
| M:13.3 | it really wants to find. Who can escape this self-condemnation? Only | through God's Word could this be possible. For self-condemnation is a |
| M:16.3 | teacher of God himself. He cannot claim that title until he has gone | through the workbook, since we are learning within the framework of |
| M:16.5 | It is better to sit up, in whatever position you prefer. Having gone | through the workbook you must have come to some conclusions in this |
| M:16.10 | all. Yet each temptation to accept magic as true must be abandoned | through his recognition not that it is fearful, not that it is |
| M:16.11 | maintained by just one simple-minded illusion—that it works. All | through his training, every day and hour, and even every minute and |
| M:18.2 | Only in this way can they proclaim the truth about themselves. | Through them, the Holy Spirit can now speak of the reality of the Son |
| M:19.4 | your injustice, attributing to God the lens of warped perception | through which you look. Now it belongs to Him and not to you. You are |
| M:21.4 | in his teaching? No, indeed. There are many who must be reached | through words, being as yet unable to hear in silence. The teacher of |
| M:23.5 | has remained with you. Would you not learn the lesson of salvation | through his learning? Why would you choose to start again when he has |
| M:25.5 | new temptation to win back strength by guile. Many have not seen | through the ego's defenses here, although they are not particularly |
| M:29.8 | Him. You are the Son He loves, and it is given you to be the means | through which His Voice is heard around the world to close all things |
| M:29.8 | the sight of all things visible, and to undo all things that change. | Through you is ushered in a world unseen, unheard, yet truly there. |

| W1:I.4 | aim is to learn how to see. The only rule that should be followed | throughout is to practice the exercises with great specificity. Each |
| W1:6.3 | to anything that seems to upset you and can profitably be used | throughout the day for that purpose. However, the three or four |
| W1:12.2 | longer or shorter, but try, instead, to keep a measured, even tempo | throughout. What you see does not matter. You teach yourself this as |
| W1:14.2 | The exercises for today are to be practiced with eyes closed | throughout. The mind searching period should be short, a minute at |
| W1:15.7 | and do not exceed four. However, the idea can be applied as needed | throughout the day. |
| W1:19.5 | selection of subjects for all practice periods remains essential | throughout. Lack of order in this connection will ultimately make the |

| W1:30.3 | Today's idea should be applied as often as possible | throughout the day. Whenever you have a moment or so, repeat it to |

| W1:41.8 | Throughout the day, use today's idea often, repeating it very slowly | |
| W1:43.15 | The idea should also be applied | throughout the day to various situations and events which may occur, |
| W1:44.11 | Throughout the day, repeat the idea often with eyes open or closed as | |
| W1:45.12 | that thinks with God. Take a minute or two as you repeat the idea | throughout the day to appreciate your mind's holiness. Stand aside, |
| W1:50.1 | answer to every problem that confronts you today and tomorrow and | throughout time. In this world, you believe you are sustained by |
| W1:61.8 | with an acknowledgment of the truth about yourself, reinforce it | throughout the day, and turn to sleep as you reaffirm your function |
| W1:62.4 | by practicing today's idea and to use it as frequently as possible | throughout the day. It will help to make the day as happy for you as |
| W1:63.3 | it and close the day with the thought of it in our awareness. And | throughout the day, we will repeat this as often as we can: |
| W1:64.10 | In the frequent applications of today's idea to be made | throughout the day, devote several minutes to reviewing these |
| W1:66.1 | You have surely noticed an emphasis | throughout our recent lessons on the connection between fulfilling |
| W1:76.14 | to any temptation to experience ourselves as subject to other laws | throughout the day. It is our statement of freedom from all danger |
| W1:78.12 | We will remember this | throughout the day and take the role assigned to us as part of God's |
| W1:94.2 | sinlessness in which you were created and in which you will remain | throughout eternity. |

| W1:106.7 | Listen today, and you will hear a Voice Which will resound | throughout the world through you. The Bringer of all miracles has |
| W1:110.11 | We will remember Him | throughout the day with thankful hearts and loving thoughts for all |

| W1:R3.11 | the thought with you and let it serve to help you keep your peace | throughout the day as well. If you are shaken, think of it again. |
| W1:121.13 | Do not forget | throughout the day the role forgiveness plays in bringing happiness |
| W1:122.13 | Let not your gifts recede | throughout the day, as you return again to meet a world of shifting |

| W2:315.1 | come to me with every passing moment. I am blessed with gifts | throughout the day, in value far beyond all things of which I can |

| Tx:3.16 | is also responsible for the fact that you may believe from time to | time that I am misdirecting you. I have made every effort to use |
| Tx:3.32 | corrects them. Since perceptions change, their dependence on | time is obvious. They are subject to transitory states, and this |
| Tx:3.32 | this necessarily implies variability. How you perceive at any given | time determines what you do, and action must occur in time. Knowledge |
| Tx:3.32 | at any given time determines what you do, and action must occur in | time. Knowledge is timeless, because certainty is not questionable. |
| Tx:3.33 | The questioning mind perceives itself in | time and therefore looks for future answers. The unquestioning mind |
| Tx:3.37 | not strangers to each other. Knowledge preceded both perception and | time and will ultimately replace them. That is the real meaning of |
| Tx:3.54 | to regard himself as both separated and unseparated at the same | time. It is impossible to undertake a confusion as fundamental as |
| Tx:3.55 | set you free,” we mean that all this kind of thinking is a waste of | time, but that you are free of the need to engage in it if you are |
| Tx:3.74 | is an order of reality or a system of thought that is real enough in | time, though not in eternity. All beliefs are real to the believer. |
| Tx:4.35 | because no one maintains that the ego existed before that point in | time. The religiously ego-oriented believe that the Soul existed |
| Tx:4.41 | in its totality transcends the sum of its parts. Christmas is not a | time; it is a state of mind. The Christ Mind wills from the Soul, not |
| Tx:5.2 | themselves call forth different kinds of responses at the same | time and thus deprive others of the joy of responding |
| Tx:5.11 | a protection, inspiring the beginning of the Atonement at the same | time. Before that, there was no need for healing and no one was |
| Tx:5.17 | and will be when they have been healed. This alteration of the | time sequence should be quite familiar, because it is very similar to |
| Tx:5.17 | should be quite familiar, because it is very similar to the shift in | time perception which the miracle introduces. The Holy Spirit is the |
| Tx:5.18 | alive by transmitting it from His Mind to yours as long as there is | time. It is partly His and partly yours. The miracle itself is just |
| Tx:5.19 | The Atonement and the separation began at the same | time. When man made the ego, God placed in him the call to joy. This |
| Tx:5.36 | Delay is of the ego, because | time is its concept. Delay is obviously a time idea. Both time and |
| Tx:5.36 | is of the ego, because time is its concept. Delay is obviously a | time idea. Both time and delay are meaningless in eternity. We have |
| Tx:5.36 | because time is its concept. Delay is obviously a time idea. Both | time and delay are meaningless in eternity. We have said before that |
| Tx:5.37 | understandable to another. So it is with the ego and the Soul, with | time and eternity. Eternity is an idea of God, so the Soul |
| Tx:5.37 | Eternity is an idea of God, so the Soul understands it perfectly. | Time is a belief of the ego, so the lower mind, which is the ego's |
| Tx:5.37 | is the ego's domain, accepts it without question. The only aspect of | time which is really eternal is now. That is what we really mean when |
| Tx:5.37 | now. That is what we really mean when we say that “now is the only | time.” The literal nature of this statement does not mean anything to |
| Tx:5.40 | by welcoming peace. Peace and eternity are as closely related as are | time and war. Perception as well as knowledge derives meaning from |
| Tx:5.42 | teaching device for bringing you home. The Holy Spirit must perceive | time and reinterpret it into the timeless. The mind must be led into |
| Tx:5.42 | it into the timeless. The mind must be led into eternity through | time because, having made time, it is capable of perceiving its |
| Tx:5.42 | The mind must be led into eternity through time because, having made | time, it is capable of perceiving its opposite. |
| Tx:5.51 | teach as much as you learn and that will keep you in balance. The | time is now because you have let it be now. You cannot learn except |
| Tx:5.70 | did not emphasize the destructive results of this decision at that | time. Any decision of the mind will affect both behavior and |
| Tx:5.71 | for theirs. Delay does not matter in eternity, but it is tragic in | time. You have elected to be in time rather than eternity and have |
| Tx:5.71 | in eternity, but it is tragic in time. You have elected to be in | time rather than eternity and have therefore changed your belief in |
| Tx:5.71 | Yet your election is both free and alterable. You do not belong in | time. Your place is only in eternity, where God Himself placed you |
| Tx:5.72 | Guilt feelings are the preservers of | time. They induce fears of future retaliation or abandonment and thus |
| Tx:5.81 | patience can produce immediate effects. This is the way in which | time is exchanged for eternity. Infinite patience calls upon infinite |
| Tx:5.81 | calls upon infinite love, and by producing results now, it renders | time unnecessary. |
| Tx:5.82 | To say that | time is temporary is merely redundant. We have repeatedly said that |
| Tx:5.82 | time is temporary is merely redundant. We have repeatedly said that | time is a learning device which will be abolished when it is no |
| Tx:5.82 | when it is no longer useful. The Holy Spirit, Who speaks for God in | time, also knows that time is meaningless. He reminds you of this in |
| Tx:5.82 | useful. The Holy Spirit, Who speaks for God in time, also knows that | time is meaningless. He reminds you of this in every passing moment |
| Tx:5.82 | is meaningless. He reminds you of this in every passing moment of | time, because it is His special function to return you to eternity |
| Tx:5.86 | at a point in development which does not accord with a point in | time. This clearly could have been a means toward real release from |
| Tx:5.86 | This clearly could have been a means toward real release from the | time belief, had Freud pursued it with an open mind. Freud, however, |
| Tx:5.93 | But the | time is now. You have not been asked to work out the plan of |
| Tx:5.93 | part in His plan and how urgent it is that you fulfill it. There is | time for delay, but there need not be. God weeps at the “sacrifice” |
| Tx:6.2 | helpful learning device. Everyone teaches and teaches all the | time. This is a responsibility which he inevitably assumes the moment |
| Tx:6.5 | how it actually led to the resurrection was not clarified at that | time. Nevertheless, it has a definite contribution to make to your |
| Tx:6.22 | later because they were not wholly ready to follow me at the | time. I emphasize this only because I do not want you to allow any |
| Tx:6.24 | teach rejection. The power of the Sons of God is operating all the | time because they were created as creators. Their influence on each |
| Tx:6.31 | if they meet in the distance, which is the same as in the future if | time and space are one dimension. Your perception will end where it |
| Tx:6.34 | The Holy Spirit uses | time but does not believe in it. Coming from God, He uses everything |
| Tx:6.47 | but He always answers. Everyone has called upon Him for help at one | time or another and in one way or another and has been answered. |
| Tx:6.47 | answered. Since the Holy Spirit answers truly, He answers for all | time, which means that everyone has the answer now. |
| Tx:6.51 | in the Kingdom, where everything lives in God without question. The | time that was spent on questioning in the dream has given way to |
| Tx:6.57 | His Children are wholly joyous. This is an ongoing process, not in | time, but in eternity. God's extending outward, though not His |
| Tx:6.69 | have been necessary. Some people remain at this step for a very long | time, experiencing very acute conflict. At this point, many try to |
| Tx:6.74 | Voice makes it impossible for the learner not to listen. For a | time, then, he is receiving conflicting messages and accepting both. |
| Tx:7.3 | Being limitless, it does not stop. It creates forever, but not in | time. God's creations have always been, because He has always been. |
| Tx:7.5 | are inseparable. God extends outward beyond limits and beyond | time, and you who are co-creators with Him extend His Kingdom forever |
| Tx:7.7 | must be understood that the word “first” as applied to Him is not a | time concept. He is first in the sense that He is the first in the |
| Tx:7.7 | Prime Creator, because He created His co-creators. Because He did, | time applies neither to Him nor to what He created. The “last step” |
| Tx:7.26 | the Kingdom, because that is where He placed it. It does not wait in | time. It merely rests in the Kingdom, because it belongs there, as |
| Tx:7.43 | the healer may not be experiencing himself as truly helpful at the | time, but the belief that he is, in the mind of another, helps him. |
| Tx:7.50 | it. It incorporates to take away. It literally believes that every | time it deprives someone of something, it has increased. We have |
| Tx:7.63 | peace, you must give up the idea of conflict entirely and for all | time. [This requires vigilance only as long as you do not recognize |
| Tx:7.89 | His perception is true. The ego can be completely forgotten at any | time, because it was always a belief that is totally incredible. No |
| Tx:8.44 | of any value, although he did not know its worthlessness at the | time. He was ashamed to return to his father because he thought he |
| Tx:8.108 | physical healing because he is fearful of bodily harm. At the same | time, however, if he were healed physically, the threat to his |
| Tx:9.2 | are telling him that he is wrong. He may be making no sense at the | time, and it is certain that if he is speaking from the ego, he will |
| Tx:9.8 | or you will forget yours. Accept only the function of healing in | time, because that is what time is for. God gave you the function to |
| Tx:9.8 | Accept only the function of healing in time, because that is what | time is for. God gave you the function to create in eternity. You do |
| Tx:9.17 | by the same standard as I have. The ego literally lives on borrowed | time, and its days are numbered. Do not fear the Last Judgment, but |
| Tx:9.17 | the Last Judgment, but welcome it and do not wait, for the ego's | time is borrowed from your eternity. This is the Second Coming, which |
| Tx:9.36 | because miracles are a way of giving acceptance and receiving it. In | time, the giving comes first, though they are simultaneous in |
| Tx:9.36 | When you have learned that they are the same, the need for | time is over. |
| Tx:9.37 | Eternity is one | time, its only dimension being “always.” This cannot mean anything to |
| Tx:9.59 | can make you fearful or loving, because nothing is beyond you. | Time and eternity are both in your mind and will conflict until you |
| Tx:9.59 | eternity are both in your mind and will conflict until you perceive | time solely as a means to regain eternity. You cannot do this as long |
| Tx:9.59 | to you is caused by factors outside yourself. You must learn that | time is solely at your disposal, and that nothing in the world can |
| Tx:9.106 | remain with you. While this is not true in eternity, it is true in | time, so that while time lasts in your minds, there will be choices. |
| Tx:9.106 | this is not true in eternity, it is true in time, so that while | time lasts in your minds, there will be choices. Time itself was your |
| Tx:9.106 | time, so that while time lasts in your minds, there will be choices. | Time itself was your choice. |
| Tx:9.107 | to become preoccupied with the temporal, you are living in | time. As always, your choice is determined by what you value. Time |
| Tx:9.107 | in time. As always, your choice is determined by what you value. | Time and eternity cannot both be real, because they contradict each |
| Tx:10.7 | however much it is denied. Your denial of its reality arrests it in | time but not in eternity. That is why your creations have not ceased |
| Tx:10.8 | Waiting is possible only in | time, but time has no meaning. You who made delay can leave time |
| Tx:10.8 | Waiting is possible only in time, but | time has no meaning. You who made delay can leave time behind simply |
| Tx:10.8 | only in time, but time has no meaning. You who made delay can leave | time behind simply by recognizing that neither beginnings nor endings |
| Tx:10.13 | of this? Your will is His Life, which He has given to you. Even in | time you cannot live apart from Him, for sleep is not death. What He |
| Tx:10.30 | to be alone. God blessed His Son forever. If you will bless him in | time, you will be in eternity. Time cannot separate you from God if |
| Tx:10.30 | Son forever. If you will bless him in time, you will be in eternity. | Time cannot separate you from God if you use it on behalf of the |
| Tx:10.62 | ever be, for the resurrection is the Will of God, which knows no | time and no exceptions. But make no exceptions yourself, or you will |
| Tx:11.63 | violate every law of reality as this world judges it. Every law of | time and space, of magnitude and mass, of prediction and control is |
| Tx:11.91 | Yet consider this: You are not guiltless in | time, but in eternity. You have “sinned” in the past, but there is no |
| Tx:11.91 | “sinned” in the past, but there is no past. Always has no direction. | Time seems to go in one direction, but when you reach its end, it |
| Tx:11.92 | Spirit knows it is not true. The Holy Spirit stands at the end of | time, where you must be because He is with you. He has always undone |
| Tx:11.93 | Being in him, he has found it. When he finds it is only a matter of | time, and time is but an illusion. For the Son of God is guiltless |
| Tx:11.93 | him, he has found it. When he finds it is only a matter of time, and | time is but an illusion. For the Son of God is guiltless now, and the |
| Tx:11.95 | faith with his Father for you. There is no road to travel on and no | time to travel through. For God waits not for His Son in time, being |
| Tx:11.95 | on and no time to travel through. For God waits not for His Son in | time, being forever unwilling to be without him. And so it has always |
| Tx:11.96 | punished for what you have done and thus depends on one-dimensional | time, proceeding from past to future. No one who believes this can |
| Tx:11.96 | is God's, not the ego's. And immortality is the opposite of | time, for time passes away, while immortality is constant. |
| Tx:11.96 | God's, not the ego's. And immortality is the opposite of time, for | time passes away, while immortality is constant. |
| Tx:11.97 | past has never been, and so the future is needless. The future, in | time, is always associated with expiation, and only guilt could |
| Tx:12.7 | free, yet you react as if it is trying to imprison you. Most of the | time you dismiss it, but you do not dismiss the ego's thought system. |
| Tx:12.26 | The ego has a very strange notion of | time, and it is with this notion that your questioning might well |
| Tx:12.26 | the past and in the end believes that the past is the only aspect of | time that is meaningful. You will remember that we said its emphasis |
| Tx:12.29 | without meaning. It is evident that the Holy Spirit's perception of | time is the exact opposite of the ego's. The reason is equally clear, |
| Tx:12.29 | ego's. The reason is equally clear, for they perceive the goal of | time as diametrically opposed. |
| Tx:12.30 | the need for it unnecessary. Thus does He regard the function of | time as temporary, serving only His teaching function, which is |
| Tx:12.30 | by definition. His emphasis is therefore on the only aspect of | time which can extend to the infinite, for now is the closest |
| Tx:12.31 | The ego, on the other hand, regards the function of | time as one of extending itself in place of eternity, for like the |
| Tx:12.31 | eternity, for like the Holy Spirit, the ego interprets the goal of | time as its own. The continuity of past and future under its |
| Tx:12.31 | future under its direction is the only purpose the ego perceives in | time, and it closes over the present so that no gap in its own |
| Tx:12.31 | own continuity can occur. Its continuity, then, would keep you in | time, while the Holy Spirit would release you from it. It is His |
| Tx:12.32 | You too will interpret the function of | time as you interpret yours. If you accept your function in the world |
| Tx:12.32 | as you interpret yours. If you accept your function in the world of | time as healing, you will emphasize only the aspect of time in which |
| Tx:12.32 | the world of time as healing, you will emphasize only the aspect of | time in which healing can occur. For healing cannot be accomplished |
| Tx:12.32 | present and hold on to the past to ensure a destructive future. And | time will be as you interpret it, for of itself it is nothing. |
| Tx:12.48 | Time can release as well as imprison, depending on whose | |
| Tx:12.50 | is real. It extends to all aspects of consciousness at the same | time and thus enables them to reach each other. The present is before |
| Tx:12.50 | and thus enables them to reach each other. The present is before | time was and will be when time is no more. In it is everything that |
| Tx:12.50 | to reach each other. The present is before time was and will be when | time is no more. In it is everything that is eternal, and they are |
| Tx:12.51 | can be accepted only without limit. In this one still dimension of | time, which does not change and where there is no sight of what you |
| Tx:12.52 | Now is the | time of salvation, for now is the release from time. Reach out to all |
| Tx:12.52 | Now is the time of salvation, for now is the release from | time. Reach out to all your brothers and touch them with the touch of |
| Tx:12.61 | not really want the world you see, for it has disappointed you since | time began. The homes you built have never sheltered you. The roads |
| Tx:12.61 | and no city that you built has withstood the crumbling assault of | time. Nothing you made but has the mark of death upon it. Hold it not |
| Tx:12.66 | wholly true and wholly yours. For all else you have lent yourself in | time, and it will fade. But this one thing is always yours, being the |
| Tx:12.67 | the welcome that you offer knowledge. Love waits on welcome, not on | time, and the real world is but your welcome of what always was. |
| Tx:12.70 | that do not block the way to light. And what else could you need? In | time He gives you all the things that you need have and will renew |
| Tx:12.70 | to make certain that you will not use them on behalf of lingering in | time. He knows that you are not at home there, and He wills no delay |
| Tx:12.75 | us and to yourself. This is the only real need to be fulfilled in | time. Salvation from the world lies only here. My peace I give you. |
| Tx:12.76 | the Mind of God's most holy Son, where it cannot abide. Healing in | time is needed, for joy cannot establish its eternal reign where |
| Tx:13.4 | no Thoughts He does not share. His message speaks of timelessness in | time, and that is why Christ's vision looks on everything with love. |
| Tx:13.5 | Everyone seen without the past thus brings you nearer to the end of | time by bringing healed and healing sight into the darkness and |
| Tx:13.8 | we will leave no one untouched and no one left alone. And suddenly | time will be over, and we will all unite in the eternity of God the |
| Tx:13.86 | to be received, even as God gave it first to His Son. The first in | time means nothing, but the First in eternity is God the Father, Who |
| Tx:14.38 | is safe, but wherein is your safety apart from it? The making of | time to take the place of timelessness lay in the decision to be not |
| Tx:14.39 | are meaningless, for reality must be one. It cannot change with | time or mood or chance. Its changelessness is what makes it real. |
| Tx:14.46 | The reflections which you accept into the mirror of your minds in | time but bring eternity nearer or farther. But eternity itself is |
| Tx:14.46 | bring eternity nearer or farther. But eternity itself is beyond all | time. Reach out of time and touch it, with the help of its reflection |
| Tx:14.46 | or farther. But eternity itself is beyond all time. Reach out of | time and touch it, with the help of its reflection in you. And you |
| Tx:14.46 | it, with the help of its reflection in you. And you will turn from | time to holiness as surely as the reflection of holiness calls |
| Tx:14.69 | the past binds Him not and therefore binds not you. He does not see | time as you do. And each miracle He offers you corrects your use of |
| Tx:14.69 | time as you do. And each miracle He offers you corrects your use of | time and makes it His. |
| Tx:15.1 | no anxieties, but merely to be perfectly calm and quiet all the | time? Yet that is what time is for—to learn just that and nothing |
| Tx:15.1 | merely to be perfectly calm and quiet all the time? Yet that is what | time is for—to learn just that and nothing more. God's Teacher |
| Tx:15.1 | of Him. When this has happened, you will no longer need a teacher or | time in which to learn. |
| Tx:15.2 | discouragement from which you suffer is your belief that this takes | time, and that the results of the Holy Spirit's teaching are far in |
| Tx:15.2 | are far in the future. This is not so. For the Holy Spirit uses | time in His own way and is not bound by it. [Time is His friend in |
| Tx:15.2 | It does not waste Him as it does you.] And all the waste that | time seems to bring with it is due but to your identification with |
| Tx:15.2 | with it is due but to your identification with the ego, which uses | time to support its belief in destruction. The ego, like the Holy |
| Tx:15.2 | its belief in destruction. The ego, like the Holy Spirit, uses | time to convince you of the inevitability of the goal and end of |
| Tx:15.3 | The ego is an ally of | time, but not a friend. For it is as mistrustful of death as it is of |
| Tx:15.5 | ego's version of immortality. And it is this the ego's version of | time supports. |
| Tx:15.6 | him hell is here and bids him leap from hell into oblivion. The only | time the ego allows anyone to look upon with some amount of |
| Tx:15.7 | How bleak and despairing is the ego's use of | time! And how terrifying! For underneath its fanatical insistence |
| Tx:15.8 | present useless. There is no escape from fear in the ego's use of | time. For time, according to its teaching, is nothing but a teaching |
| Tx:15.8 | useless. There is no escape from fear in the ego's use of time. For | time, according to its teaching, is nothing but a teaching device for |

| Tx:15.10 | no time. For what is time without a past and future? It has taken | time to misguide you so completely, but it takes no time at all to be |
| Tx:15.10 | It has taken time to misguide you so completely, but it takes no | time at all to be what you are. Begin to practice the Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:15.10 | all to be what you are. Begin to practice the Holy Spirit's use of | time as a teaching aid to happiness and peace. Take this very |
| Tx:15.10 | Take this very instant, now, and think of it as all there is of | time. Nothing can reach you here out of the past, and it is here that |
| Tx:15.10 | holy instant wherein holiness was born again, you will go forth in | time without fear and with no sense of change with time. |
| Tx:15.10 | will go forth in time without fear and with no sense of change with | time. |
| Tx:15.11 | Time is inconceivable without change, yet holiness does not change. | |
| Tx:15.12 | yourself, “How long is an instant?” Could you not give so short a | time to the Holy Spirit for your salvation? He asks no more, for He |
| Tx:15.13 | receive. They attest to your willingness to be released and to offer | time to the Holy Spirit for His use of it. How long is an instant? It |
| Tx:15.13 | giving this blessed instant of freedom to all who are enslaved by | time and thus make time their friend for them. The Holy Spirit gives |
| Tx:15.13 | instant of freedom to all who are enslaved by time and thus make | time their friend for them. The Holy Spirit gives their blessed |
| Tx:15.15 | Time is your friend if you leave it to the Holy Spirit to use. He | |
| Tx:15.15 | very little to restore God's whole power to you. He Who transcends | time for you understands what time is for. Holiness lies not in time |
| Tx:15.15 | whole power to you. He Who transcends time for you understands what | time is for. Holiness lies not in time but in eternity. There never |
| Tx:15.15 | time for you understands what time is for. Holiness lies not in | time but in eternity. There never was an instant in which God's Son |
| Tx:15.15 | God's Son could lose his purity. His changeless state is beyond | time, for his purity remains forever beyond attack and without |
| Tx:15.15 | his purity remains forever beyond attack and without variability. | Time stands still in his holiness and changes not. And so it is no |
| Tx:15.15 | stands still in his holiness and changes not. And so it is no longer | time at all. For, caught in the single instant of the eternal |
| Tx:15.16 | The Atonement is in | time but not for time. Being in you, it is eternal. What holds |
| Tx:15.16 | The Atonement is in time but not for | time. Being in you, it is eternal. What holds remembrance of God |
| Tx:15.16 | you, it is eternal. What holds remembrance of God cannot be bound by | time. No more are you. For unless God is bound, you cannot be. An |
| Tx:15.16 | will quickly offer you the whole lesson of peace. What can take | time, when all the obstacles to learning it have been removed? Truth |
| Tx:15.16 | obstacles to learning it have been removed? Truth is so far beyond | time that all of it happens at once. For as it was created one, so |
| Tx:15.16 | at once. For as it was created one, so its oneness depends not on | time at all. |
| Tx:15.17 | Do not be concerned with | time and fear not the instant of holiness which will remove all fear. |
| Tx:15.17 | God gives you through the Teacher He has appointed to translate | time into eternity. Blessed is God's Teacher, Whose joy it is to |
| Tx:15.17 | is to teach God's holy Son his holiness. His joy is not contained in | time. His teaching is for you because His joy is yours. Through Him |
| Tx:15.18 | have, you have forever. The blessed instant reaches out to encompass | time, as God extends Himself to encompass you. You who have spent |
| Tx:15.23 | Yet what you do not realize each | time you choose is that your choice is your evaluation of yourself. |
| Tx:15.24 | you owe yourself, and one which you must learn to remember all the | time. The lesson will seem hard at first, but you will learn to love |
| Tx:15.26 | God?” Let this question be asked you by the Holy Spirit in you every | time you make a decision. For every decision you make does answer |
| Tx:15.35 | learning unless you prefer to believe that what God wills takes | time. And this means only that you would rather delay the recognition |
| Tx:15.38 | willing to meet its conditions. You can claim the holy instant any | time and anywhere you want it. In your practice, try to give over |
| Tx:15.39 | to which you learn to be willing to accept me is the measure of the | time in which the holy instant will be yours. I call to you to make |
| Tx:15.39 | in the mind of the host of God depends on willingness and not on | time. The reason why this course is simple is that truth is simple. |
| Tx:15.40 | go. The simple reason, simply stated, is this: The holy instant is a | time in which you receive and give perfect communication. This means, |
| Tx:15.40 | and give perfect communication. This means, however, that it is a | time in which your mind is open, both to receive and give. It is the |
| Tx:15.54 | neither less nor more. He needs them all equally, and so do you. In | time you have been told to offer miracles as Christ directs and let |
| Tx:15.62 | Yet the awareness of changelessness comes swiftly as the veil of | time is pushed aside. No one who has not yet experienced the lifting |
| Tx:15.79 | you as your Teacher until the holy instant has extended far beyond | time. For a teaching assignment such as His, He must use everything |
| Tx:15.92 | It is in your power in | time to delay the perfect union of the Father and the Son. For in |
| Tx:15.92 | this world, the attraction of guilt does stand between them. Neither | time nor season means anything in eternity. But here it is the Holy |
| Tx:15.92 | is the gift I gave to you. Release me as I will your release. The | time of Christ we celebrate together, for it has no meaning if we are |
| Tx:15.93 | The holy instant is truly the | time of Christ. For in this liberating instant, no guilt is laid upon |
| Tx:15.94 | that I was born to give. Give it to me, that you may have it. The | time of Christ is the time appointed for the gift of freedom, offered |
| Tx:15.94 | give. Give it to me, that you may have it. The time of Christ is the | time appointed for the gift of freedom, offered to everyone. And by |
| Tx:15.94 | power to make this season holy, for it is in your power to make the | time of Christ be now. |
| Tx:15.102 | but shining in the Heaven within and accept it as the sign the | time of Christ has come. He comes demanding nothing. No sacrifice of |
| Tx:15.102 | surrounds it. No fear can touch the host who cradles God in the | time of Christ, for the Host is as holy as the Perfect Innocence |
| Tx:15.108 | comes of itself. Let no despair darken the joy of Christmas, for the | time of Christ is meaningless apart from joy. Let us join in |
| Tx:15.108 | to perceive we are deprived of nothing? Such is the message of the | time of Christ, which I give you that you may give it and return it |
| Tx:15.108 | give it and return it to the Father, Who gave it to me. For in the | time of Christ, communication is restored, and He joins us in the |
| Tx:15.110 | This is the weekend in which a new year will be born from the | time of Christ. I have perfect faith in you to do all that you would |
| Tx:16.19 | tried to solve anything yourself and been successful. Is it not | time you brought these facts together and made sense of them? |
| Tx:16.42 | you? What would interfere with God must interfere with you. Only in | time does interference in God's completion seem to be possible. The |
| Tx:16.42 | possible. The bridge that He would carry you across lifts you from | time into eternity. Waken from time and answer fearlessly the call of |
| Tx:16.42 | would carry you across lifts you from time into eternity. Waken from | time and answer fearlessly the call of Him Who gave eternity to you |
| Tx:16.58 | possible, and they are totally unreal. This year is thus the | time to make the easiest decision that ever confronted you and also |
| Tx:16.63 | Across the bridge, it is so different! For a | time the body is still seen but not exclusively, as it is seen here. |
| Tx:16.65 | Fear not that you will be abruptly lifted up and hurled into reality. | Time is kind, and if you use it for reality, it will keep gentle pace |
| Tx:16.65 | which precedes the actual transition is far shorter than the | time it took to fix your minds so firmly on illusions. Delay will |
| Tx:16.76 | For a | time you may attempt to bring illusions into the holy instant to |
| Tx:16.76 | in your mind. Yet the holy instant is eternal, and your illusions of | time will not prevent the timeless from being what it is nor you from |
| Tx:16.78 | offered them illusions. In the holy instant, this is done for you in | time to bring to you the true condition of Heaven. |
| Tx:17.8 | step, so small it has escaped your notice, is a stride through | time into eternity and beyond all ugliness into beauty that will |
| Tx:17.10 | of the real world will be so short that you will barely have | time to thank God for it. For God will take the last step swiftly |
| Tx:17.18 | Time is indeed unkind to the unholy relationship. For time is cruel | |
| Tx:17.18 | Time is indeed unkind to the unholy relationship. For | time is cruel in the ego's hands, as it is kind when used for |
| Tx:17.37 | of eternity. It is a picture of timelessness, set in a frame of | time. If you focus on the picture, you will realize that it was only |
| Tx:17.37 | of Heaven lies in this instant, borrowed from eternity and set in | time for you. |
| Tx:17.40 | The other picture is lightly framed, for | time cannot contain eternity. There is no distraction here. The |
| Tx:17.45 | invitation is accepted immediately, and the Holy Spirit wastes no | time in introducing the practical results of asking Him to enter. At |
| Tx:17.47 | more slowly, for the contrast would be obscured and the ego given | time to reinterpret each slow step according to its liking. Only a |
| Tx:17.48 | This is the | time for faith. You let this goal be set for you. That was an act of |
| Tx:17.48 | guidance? Have faith in each other in what but seems to be a trying | time. The goal is set. And your relationship has sanity as its |
| Tx:17.54 | however compelling it may be, is easily forgotten if you allow | time to close over it. It must be kept shining and gracious in your |
| Tx:17.54 | over it. It must be kept shining and gracious in your awareness of | time but not concealed within it. The instant remains. But where are |
| Tx:17.54 | you have denied yourself its benefit. You reinforce this every | time you attack each other, for the attack must blind you to |
| Tx:18.4 | it was. That one error, which brought truth to illusion, infinity to | time, and life to death, was all you ever made. Your whole world |
| Tx:18.16 | they do you order. No limit on substitution is laid upon you. For a | time, it seems as if the world were given you, to make it what you |
| Tx:18.19 | is but another form of this same world you see in dreams. All your | time is spent in dreaming. Your sleeping and your waking dreams have |
| Tx:18.30 | brought it. We are made whole in our desire to make whole. Let not | time worry you, for all the fear that you experience is really past. |
| Tx:18.30 | time worry you, for all the fear that you experience is really past. | Time has been readjusted to help us do together what your separate |
| Tx:18.47 | Whichever is saner at the | time when the threat is perceived should remember how deep is his |
| Tx:18.60 | in space, and of your differences in size and seeming quality. | Time is not relevant; it can occur with something past, present, or |
| Tx:18.61 | of what happens in the holy instant; the lifting of the barriers of | time and space, the sudden experience of peace and joy, and, above |
| Tx:18.65 | experienced just now. Only its past and future make it seem real. | Time controls it entirely, for sin is never present. In any single |
| Tx:18.66 | This course does not attempt to teach more than they learned in | time, but it does aim at saving time. You are attempting to follow a |
| Tx:18.66 | to teach more than they learned in time, but it does aim at saving | time. You are attempting to follow a very long road to the goal you |
| Tx:18.66 | succeed because of their purpose. Yet the means are tedious and very | time consuming, for all of them look to the future for release from a |
| Tx:18.67 | in purpose but in means. A holy relationship is a means of saving | time. One instant spent together restores the universe to both of |
| Tx:18.68 | release which everyone will one day find in his own way, at his own | time. We do not need this time. Time has been saved for you because |
| Tx:18.68 | one day find in his own way, at his own time. We do not need this | time. Time has been saved for you because you are together. This is |
| Tx:18.68 | day find in his own way, at his own time. We do not need this time. | Time has been saved for you because you are together. This is the |
| Tx:18.68 | together. This is the special means this course is using to save you | time. You are not making use of the course if you insist on using |
| Tx:18.68 | have served others well, neglecting what was made for you. Save | time for me by only this one preparation and practice, doing nothing |
| Tx:18.69 | door through which you slip past centuries of effort and escape from | time. This is the way in which sin loses all attraction right now. |
| Tx:18.69 | is the way in which sin loses all attraction right now. For here is | time denied and past and future gone. Who need do nothing has no need |
| Tx:18.69 | denied and past and future gone. Who need do nothing has no need for | time. To do nothing is to rest and make a place within you where the |
| Tx:18.96 | needs to be undone. Love is not learned because there never was a | time in which you knew it not. Learning is useless in the Presence of |
| Tx:19.16 | eternal and learn how not to interfere with it and make it slave to | time. For what you think you do to the eternal you do to you. Whom |
| Tx:19.28 | a call for help that you would keep unheard and thus unanswered? In | time the Holy Spirit clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes. |
| Tx:19.28 | Yet you do not share His recognition of the difference between | time and eternity. And when correction is completed, time is eternity. |
| Tx:19.28 | between time and eternity. And when correction is completed, | time is eternity. |
| Tx:19.29 | Time is like a downward spiral which seems to travel down from a | |
| Tx:19.30 | and forever changeless. This One can teach you how to look on | time differently and see beyond it, but not while you believe in sin. |
| Tx:19.87 | perform, held out to you. The miracle of life is ageless, born in | time but nourished in eternity. Behold this infant to whom you gave a |
| Tx:19.106 | in him the gift of God you would receive. It is almost Easter, the | time of resurrection. Let us give redemption to each other and share |
| Tx:20.4 | ancient Friend, lie his release and your redemption with him. The | time of Easter is a time of joy and not of mourning. Look on your |
| Tx:20.4 | his release and your redemption with him. The time of Easter is a | time of joy and not of mourning. Look on your risen Friend and |
| Tx:20.4 | Friend and celebrate his holiness along with me. For Easter is the | time of your salvation, along with mine. |
| Tx:20.10 | —a careless thought to play with or a toy you would pick up from | time to time and then put by. For if you do, so will it be to you. |
| Tx:20.10 | thought to play with or a toy you would pick up from time to | time and then put by. For if you do, so will it be to you. |
| Tx:20.12 | Your home has called to you since | time began, nor have you ever failed entirely to hear. You heard but |
| Tx:20.35 | You may wonder how you can be at peace when, while you are in | time, there is so much that must be done before the way to peace is |
| Tx:20.37 | to what was held outside them and finding what was lost. Only in | time can anything be lost, and never lost forever. So do the parts of |
| Tx:20.37 | never lost forever. So do the parts of God's Son gradually join in | time, and with each joining is the end of time brought nearer. Each |
| Tx:20.37 | Son gradually join in time, and with each joining is the end of | time brought nearer. Each miracle of joining is a mighty herald of |
| Tx:20.38 | herald of eternity sings of the end of sin and fear. Each speaks in | time of what is far beyond it. Two voices raised together call to the |
| Tx:20.41 | There is but one. The little breath of eternity that runs through | time like golden light is all the same—nothing before it, nothing |
| Tx:20.42 | You look upon each holy instant as a different point in | time. It never changes. All that it ever held or will ever hold is |
| Tx:20.52 | your relationships were made meaningless. In that unholy instant, | time was born and bodies made to house the mad idea and give it the |
| Tx:20.52 | so it seemed to have a home that held together for a little while in | time and vanished. For what could house this mad idea against reality |
| Tx:20.55 | around the mind, keeping it prisoner in a tiny spot of space and | time, beholden unto death and given but an instant in which to sigh |
| Tx:20.56 | and you have learned you really want but one. This is no | time for sadness. Perhaps confusion, but hardly discouragement. |
| Tx:20.62 | to make the unholy relationship seem real. The unholy instant is the | time of bodies. But the purpose here is sin. It cannot be attained |
| Tx:21.45 | This part has seen your brother and recognized him perfectly since | time began. And it desired nothing but to join with him and to be |
| Tx:21.53 | For God wills not apart from him, nor does the Will of God wait upon | time to be accomplished. Therefore, what joined the Will of God must |
| Tx:21.81 | will tell you why. It is the same as are the other three except in | time. The others are decisions which can be made and then unmade and |
| Tx:21.84 | Elusive happiness, or happiness in changing form that shifts with | time and place, is an illusion which has no meaning. Happiness must |
| Tx:21.90 | answered and what you ask for given. Here is the future now, for | time is powerless because of your desire for what will never change. |
| Tx:22.1 | on sin together, for they could never see it in the same place and | time. Sin is a strictly individual perception, seen in the other yet |
| Tx:22.14 | older than perception and yet reborn in just an instant. For what is | time to what was always so? Think what that instant brought—the |
| Tx:22.18 | for the eternal cannot change. But sorrow can be turned to joy, for | time gives way to the eternal. Only the timeless must remain |
| Tx:22.18 | eternal. Only the timeless must remain unchanged, but everything in | time can change with time. Yet if the change be real and not |
| Tx:22.18 | must remain unchanged, but everything in time can change with | time. Yet if the change be real and not imagined, illusions must give |
| Tx:22.23 | it is beyond your understanding, but when must be your choice. For | time you made, and time you can command. You are no more a slave to |
| Tx:22.23 | understanding, but when must be your choice. For time you made, and | time you can command. You are no more a slave to time than to the |
| Tx:22.23 | time you made, and time you can command. You are no more a slave to | time than to the world you made. |
| Tx:22.27 | holy relationship, beloved of God Himself. How still it rests, in | time and yet beyond, immortal yet on earth. How great the power that |
| Tx:22.27 | beyond, immortal yet on earth. How great the power that lies in it. | Time waits upon its will, and earth will be as it would have it be. |
| Tx:22.56 | remembrance of everything that is eternal. No trace of anything in | time can long remain in minds that serve the timeless. And no |
| Tx:23.5 | glory is beyond it, measureless and timeless as eternity. Do not let | time intrude upon your sight of him. Leave him not frightened and |
| Tx:24.52 | of the Son as all you wish to be accomplished by the world, by | time, and all appearances, you will not know the Father nor yourself. |
| Tx:24.54 | it is He they look for everywhere and find no sight nor place nor | time where He is not. Within your brother's holiness, the perfect |
| Tx:24.55 | look upon. Yet will you choose in countless situations and through | time which seems to have no end until the truth be your decision. For |
| Tx:24.60 | goal with far less vigilance—with little effort and with little | time and with the power of God maintaining it and promising success. |
| Tx:24.65 | this: can you protect the mind? The body, yes, a little—not from | time, but temporarily. And much you think you save, you hurt. What |
| Tx:24.67 | one with Him. This is the state of true creation, found not within | time, but in eternity. To no one here is this describable. Nor is |
| Tx:24.68 | to add and nothing taken from—not born of size nor weight nor | time nor held to limits or uncertainties of any kind. Here do the |
| Tx:25.10 | All this takes note of | time and place as if they were discrete, for while you think that |
| Tx:25.13 | hope of satisfaction from the world you see? In no respect at any | time or place has anything but fear and guilt been your reward. How |
| Tx:25.27 | Help within him ready to lead him out of darkness into light at any | time. |
| Tx:25.28 | The | time he chooses can be any time, for help is there, awaiting but his |
| Tx:25.28 | The time he chooses can be any | time, for help is there, awaiting but his choice. And when he chooses |
| Tx:25.31 | this choice your future? For you make it now, the instant when all | time becomes a means to reach a goal. Make then your choice. But |
| Tx:25.36 | before and nothing after it. No other place, no other state nor | time. Nothing beyond nor nearer. Nothing else. In any form. This can |
| Tx:25.38 | as innocent and wish him dead? Christ stands before you both each | time you look on one another. He has not gone because your eyes are |
| Tx:25.47 | so they must be one. Forgiveness is the only function meaningful in | time. It is the means the Holy Spirit uses to translate specialness |
| Tx:25.47 | complete and every function of this world completed with it. Then is | time no more. |
| Tx:25.48 | Yet while in | time, there is still much to do. And each must do what is allotted |
| Tx:25.48 | for on his part does all the plan depend. He has a special part in | time, for so he chose, and choosing it, he made it for himself. His |
| Tx:25.49 | understand that he is safe, as he has always been and will remain in | time and in eternity alike. This is the function given each of you |
| Tx:25.56 | same. The form is suited to your special needs and to the special | time and place in which you think you find yourself and where you can |
| Tx:25.56 | you think you find yourself and where you can be free of place and | time and all that you believe must limit you. The Son of God cannot |
| Tx:25.56 | that you believe must limit you. The Son of God cannot be bound by | time nor place nor anything God did not will. Yet if His Will is seen |
| Tx:26.6 | belief in sin. You sacrifice your innocence with his and die each | time you see in him a sin deserving death. |
| Tx:26.8 | He is the same forever—born again each instant, untouched by | time, and far beyond the reach of any sacrifice of life or death. For |
| Tx:26.10 | then recur again and yet again until it has been answered for all | time and will not rise again in any form. And only then are you |
| Tx:26.12 | vanish one by one without regard to size, complexity, or place and | time, or any attribute which you perceive that makes each one seem |
| Tx:26.14 | punish him because you will not look at what is there to see? Each | time you keep a problem for yourself to solve or judge that it is one |
| Tx:26.19 | and Heaven. It is not a place, and when you reach it is apart from | time. Here is the meeting-place where thoughts are brought together— |
| Tx:26.20 | the gate where Oneness is. Salvation is a borderland where place and | time and choice have meaning still, and yet it can be seen that they |
| Tx:26.30 | teacher leads. There are but two directions you can take while | time remains and choice is meaningful. For never will another road be |
| Tx:26.31 | Nothing is ever lost but | time, which in the end is [nothing. It] is but a little hindrance to |
| Tx:26.32 | to conflict with it. And what He would replace has been replaced. | Time lasted but an instant in your mind, with no effect upon |
| Tx:26.32 | an instant in your mind, with no effect upon eternity. And so is all | time passed and everything exactly as it was before the way to |
| Tx:26.32 | as it was before the way to nothingness was made. The tiny tick of | time in which the first mistake was made, and all of them within that |
| Tx:26.32 | and all of them that came within the first. And in that tiny instant | time was gone, for that was all it ever was. What God gave Answer to |
| Tx:26.33 | To you who still believe you live in | time and know not it is gone, the Holy Spirit still guides you |
| Tx:26.33 | the infinitely small and senseless maze you still perceive in | time, though it has long since gone. You think you live in what is |
| Tx:26.34 | world appear to rise. So very long ago, for such a tiny interval of | time that not one note in Heaven's song was missed. |
| Tx:26.35 | that one instant still called back, as if it could be made again in | time. You keep an ancient memory before your eyes. And he who lives |
| Tx:26.36 | [Forgiveness is the great release from | time. It is the key to learning that the past is over. Madness speaks |
| Tx:26.36 | a distant shore and dream himself across an ocean to a place and | time that have long since gone by? How real a hindrance can this |
| Tx:26.36 | he has. Yet can he still imagine he is elsewhere and in another | time. In the extreme, he can delude himself that this is true and |
| Tx:26.37 | to hear where he is now? And how much can his own delusions about | time and place affect a change in where he really is? The unforgiven |
| Tx:26.38 | Forget the | time of terror that has been so long ago corrected and undone. Can |
| Tx:26.39 | allow His Son to lose his way along a road long since a memory of | time gone by? [This course will teach you only what is now.] A |
| Tx:26.41 | The shadow voices do not change the laws of | time or of eternity. They come from what is past and gone and hinder |
| Tx:26.41 | here and now. The real world is the second part of the hallucination | time and death are real and have existence which can be perceived. |
| Tx:26.41 | which can be perceived. This terrible illusion was denied in but the | time it took for God to give His answer to illusion for all time and |
| Tx:26.41 | but the time it took for God to give His answer to illusion for all | time and every circumstance. And then it was no more, to be |
| Tx:26.42 | that each minute holds, you but relive the single instant when the | time of terror was replaced by love. And so you die each day to live |
| Tx:26.42 | of an instant gone by long ago, which cannot be relived. And all of | time is but the mad belief that what is over is still here and now. |
| Tx:26.49 | to all its forms. God's answer is eternal, though it operates in | time where it is needed. Yet because it is of God, the laws of time |
| Tx:26.49 | in time where it is needed. Yet because it is of God, the laws of | time do not affect its workings. It is in this world, but not a part |
| Tx:26.54 | you impose between your brother and yourself. They limit you to | time and place and give a little space to you, another little space |
| Tx:26.68 | problem that you have is that you see an interval between the | time when you forgive and will receive the benefits of trust. This |
| Tx:26.68 | keep between yourselves that you might be a little separate. For | time and space are one illusion which takes different forms. If it |
| Tx:26.68 | If it has been projected beyond your minds, you think of it as | time. The nearer it is brought to where it is, the more you think of |
| Tx:26.69 | you would keep apart from one another, and this space you see as | time because you still believe you are external to each other. This |
| Tx:26.70 | afraid of it, believing that the risk of loss is great between the | time its purpose is made yours and its effects will come to you. In |
| Tx:26.70 | it is here you fear the loss would lie. Do not project this fear to | time, for time is not the enemy that you perceive. Time is as neutral |
| Tx:26.70 | you fear the loss would lie. Do not project this fear to time, for | time is not the enemy that you perceive. Time is as neutral as the |
| Tx:26.70 | this fear to time, for time is not the enemy that you perceive. | Time is as neutral as the body is except in terms of what you see it |
| Tx:26.70 | you would keep a little space between you still, you want a little | time in which forgiveness is withheld a little while. This makes the |
| Tx:26.70 | is withheld a little while. This makes the interval between the | time in which forgiveness is withheld and given seem dangerous, with |
| Tx:26.71 | space between you is apparent now and cannot be perceived in future | time. No more can it be overlooked except within the present. Future |
| Tx:26.72 | It stands already here in present grace, within the only interval of | time which sin and fear have overlooked but which is all there is to |
| Tx:26.72 | time which sin and fear have overlooked but which is all there is to | time. The working out of all correction takes no time at all. |
| Tx:26.72 | is all there is to time. The working out of all correction takes no | time at all. |
| Tx:26.73 | will see. They can be looked at now. Why wait till they unfold in | time and fear they may not come, although already there? You have |
| Tx:26.74 | reason, for it is unjust and clearly hints at punishment until the | time of liberation is at hand. Given a change of purpose for the |
| Tx:26.75 | and one form in which its outcome is perceived. This interval in | time, when retribution is perceived to be the form in which the |
| Tx:26.76 | maintain effects of present cause must be delayed until a future | time is merely a denial of the fact that consequence and cause must |
| Tx:26.76 | of the fact that consequence and cause must come as one. Look not to | time but to the little space between you still to be delivered from. |
| Tx:26.76 | you still to be delivered from. And do not let it be disguised as | time and so preserved because its form is changed and what it is |
| Tx:27.31 | then the empty space it occupies be recognized as vacant, and the | time devoted to its seeing be perceived as idly spent, a time |
| Tx:27.31 | and the time devoted to its seeing be perceived as idly spent, a | time unoccupied. |
| Tx:27.32 | An empty space which is not seen as filled, an unused interval of | time not seen as spent and fully occupied, becomes a silent |
| Tx:27.33 | It lets the Holy Spirit make exchange of pictures possible until the | time when aids are meaningless and learning done. No learning aid has |
| Tx:27.37 | Thus it must be that | time is not involved, and every problem can be answered now. Yet it |
| Tx:27.45 | love without attack. An instant is sufficient. Miracles wait not on | time. |
| Tx:27.69 | as thoughtless of his peace and happiness as is the weather or the | time of day. It loves him not but casts him as it will in any role |
| Tx:27.70 | indeed it is, for thus are you the one decider of your destiny in | time. The choice is yours to make between a sleeping death and dreams |
| Tx:27.72 | you do not even see, the birthplace of illusions and of fear, the | time of terror and of ancient hate, the instant of disaster, all are |
| Tx:27.77 | united in the dust with other bodies dying like itself. In the brief | time allotted it to live, it seeks for other bodies as its friends |
| Tx:27.79 | The body's serial adventures from the | time of birth to dying is the theme of every dream the world has ever |
| Tx:27.81 | his attack upon himself. No one believes there really was a | time when he knew nothing of a body and could never have conceived |
| Tx:27.82 | effects. Together, we can laugh them both away and understand that | time cannot intrude upon eternity. It is a joke to think that time |
| Tx:27.82 | that time cannot intrude upon eternity. It is a joke to think that | time can come to circumvent eternity, which means there is no time. |
| Tx:27.82 | that time can come to circumvent eternity, which means there is no | time. |
| Tx:27.83 | A timelessness in which is | time made real; a part of God which can attack itself; a separate |
| Tx:28.4 | your desire made the link, and only you have held it to a part of | time where guilt appears to linger still. |
| Tx:28.5 | The Holy Spirit's use of memory is quite apart from | time. He does not seek to use it as a means to keep the past, but |
| Tx:28.5 | and lived again. And thus do their effects appear to be increased by | time, which took away their cause. |
| Tx:28.6 | Yet | time is but another phase of what does nothing. It works hand in hand |
| Tx:28.6 | with which you seek to keep concealed the truth about yourself. | Time neither takes away nor can restore. And yet you make strange use |
| Tx:28.8 | not be unremembered. It has never changed because there never was a | time in which He did not keep It safely in your mind. Its |
| Tx:28.9 | reminds you of a Cause forever present, perfectly untouched by | time and interference—never changed from what It is. And you are |
| Tx:28.10 | deny Him His effects, yet have they never been denied. There was no | time in which His Son could be condemned for what was causeless and |
| Tx:28.11 | stops an instant and is still. It reaches gently from that quiet | time, and from the mind it healed in quiet then, to other minds to |

| W1:27.6 | every 15 or 20 minutes. It is recommended that you set a definite | time interval for using the idea when you wake or shortly afterwards |

| W1:46.13 | specific applications if they are needed. They will be needed at any | time during the day when you become aware of any kind of negative |
| W1:48.2 | idea as often as possible. You can use it with your eyes open at any | time and in any situation. It is strongly recommended, however, that |
| W1:50.1 | every problem that confronts you today and tomorrow and throughout | time. In this world, you believe you are sustained by everything but |
| W1:52.4 | from dawning on my mind. Let me understand that I am trying to use | time against God. Let me learn to give the past away, realizing that |
| W1:62.3 | that in every attack you call upon your own weakness, while every | time you forgive you call upon the strength of Christ in you. Do you |
| W1:62.4 | around you as well as those who seem to be far away in space and | time to share this happiness with you. |
| W1:64.5 | There is no other way. Therefore every | time you choose whether or not to fulfill your function, you are |

| W1:65.3 | the daily extended practice periods at approximately the same | time each day. Try, also, to determine this time today in advance and |
| W1:65.3 | approximately the same time each day. Try, also, to determine this | time today in advance and then adhere to it as closely as possible. |
| W1:65.4 | of this is to arrange your day so that you have set apart the | time for God, as well as for all the trivial purposes and goals you |
| W1:67.6 | You may find it necessary to repeat the idea for today from | time to time to replace distracting thoughts. You may also find that |
| W1:67.6 | You may find it necessary to repeat the idea for today from time to | time to replace distracting thoughts. You may also find that this is |
| W1:70.7 | and it would again be well to decide in advance when would be a good | time to lay aside for each of them and adhere to your own decision as |
| W1:73.11 | You will succeed today, the | time appointed for the release of the Son of God from hell and from |
| W1:75.2 | There are no dark dreams now. The light has come. Today the | time of light begins for you and everyone. It is a new era in which a |
| W1:75.10 | wait in certainty to look upon the world He promised you. From this | time forth you will see differently. Today the light has come. And |
| W1:75.10 | come. And you will see the world that has been promised you since | time began, and in which is the end of time ensured. |
| W1:75.10 | has been promised you since time began, and in which is the end of | time ensured. |
| W1:75.11 | Remind yourself every quarter of an hour or so that today is a | time for special celebration. Give thanks for mercy and the Love of |
| W1:79.3 | and the next arise. There seems to be no end to them. There is no | time in which you feel completely free of problems and at peace. |
| W1:79.5 | remain unsolved under a cloud of denial and rise to haunt you from | time to time, only to be hidden again but still unsolved. |
| W1:79.5 | unsolved under a cloud of denial and rise to haunt you from time to | time, only to be hidden again but still unsolved. |
| W1:79.9 | The shorter practice periods for today will not be set by | time but by need. You will see many problems today, each one calling |
| W1:90.5 | have been solved. I seem to have problems only because I am misusing | time. I believe that the problem comes first, and time must elapse |
| W1:90.5 | I am misusing time. I believe that the problem comes first, and | time must elapse before it can be worked out. I do not see the |
| W1:90.5 | together with the problem, so that they cannot be separated by | time. The Holy Spirit will teach me this if I will let Him. And I |
| W1:90.7 | The answer to this problem is already given me if I will accept it. | Time cannot separate this problem from its solution. |
| W1:91.5 | Three times today, set aside about ten minutes for a quiet | time in which you try to leave your weakness behind. This is |
| W1:92.11 | the morning meeting, we will use the day in preparation for the | time at night when we will meet again in hope and trust. Let us |
| W1:95.5 | but shorter practice periods have other advantages for you at this | time. In addition to recognizing your difficulties with sustained |
| W1:95.5 | purpose frequently, you tend to forget about it for long periods of | time. You often fail to remember the short applications of the idea |
| W1:95.6 | Structure, then, is necessary for you at this | time, planned to include frequent reminders of your goal and regular |
| W1:95.6 | your goal and regular attempts to reach it. Regularity in terms of | time is not the ideal requirement for the most beneficial form of |
| W1:95.20 | Repeat today's idea as frequently as possible and understand each | time you do so, someone hears the voice of hope, the stirring of the |
| W1:96.2 | of goals you cannot reach; a senseless series of expenditures of | time and effort, hopefulness and doubt, each one as futile as the one |
| W1:96.7 | Waste no more | time on this. Who can resolve the senseless conflicts which a dream |
| W1:96.16 | will save for you, and it will yet be yours in full awareness. Every | time you spend five minutes of the hour seeking Him Who joins your |
| W1:96.17 | Each | time today you tell your frantic mind salvation comes from your One |
| W1:97.3 | Today we try to bring reality still closer to your mind. Each | time you practice, awareness is brought a little nearer at least; |
| W1:97.3 | you give are multiplied over and over, for the miracle makes use of | time but is not ruled by it. Salvation is a miracle, the first and |
| W1:97.4 | You are the Spirit in whose mind abides the miracle in which all | time stands still; the miracle in which a minute spent in using these |
| W1:97.4 | the miracle in which a minute spent in using these ideas becomes a | time which has no length and which has no end. Give, then, these |
| W1:97.6 | they will be welcome. And they will increase in healing power each | time someone accepts them as his thoughts and uses them to heal. |
| W1:97.11 | and God, your brothers and your Self. Listen for His assurance every | time you speak the words He offers you today, and let Him tell your |
| W1:98.3 | they know their function will be filled completely in the perfect | time and place. They took the stand which we will take today that we |
| W1:98.5 | Is it not worth five minutes of your | time each hour to be able to accept the happiness that God has given |
| W1:98.6 | joy the world does not contain. You can exchange a little of your | time for peace of mind and certainty of purpose with the promise of |
| W1:98.6 | certainty of purpose with the promise of complete success. And since | time has no meaning, you are being asked for nothing in return for |
| W1:98.11 | practice period you share with Him, exchanging every instant of the | time you offer Him for timelessness and peace. |
| W1:98.12 | Throughout the hour, let your | time be spent in happy preparation for the next five minutes you will |
| W1:98.12 | again with Him. Repeat today's idea while you wait for the glad | time to come to you again. Repeat it often, and do not forget each |
| W1:98.12 | time to come to you again. Repeat it often, and do not forget each | time you do so, you have let your mind be readied for the happy time |
| W1:98.12 | each time you do so, you have let your mind be readied for the happy | time to come. |
| W1:98.13 | And when the hour is gone and He is there once more to spend a little | time with you, be thankful and lay down all earthly tasks, all little |
| W1:98.13 | tasks, all little thoughts and limited ideas, and spend a happy | time again with Him. Tell Him once more that you accept the part |
| W1:99.5 | of Him within the Mind of God and in your own. It is apart from | time in that its Source is timeless. Yet it operates in time because |
| W1:99.5 | apart from time in that its Source is timeless. Yet it operates in | time because of your belief that time is real. Unshaken does the Holy |
| W1:99.5 | is timeless. Yet it operates in time because of your belief that | time is real. Unshaken does the Holy Spirit look on what you see—on |
| W1:100.11 | is your Self Who calls to you today. And it is Him you answer every | time you tell yourself you are essential to God's plan for the |
| W1:104.2 | are our own in truth. His are the gifts which we inherited before | time was and which will still be ours when time has passed into |
| W1:104.2 | which we inherited before time was and which will still be ours when | time has passed into eternity. |
| W1:105.11 | Spend your five minutes thus with Him each | time you can today, but do not think that less is worthless when you |
| W1:107.2 | illusions is? How it would feel? Try to remember when there was a | time—perhaps a minute, maybe even less—when nothing came to |
| W1:107.2 | what it would be like to have that moment be extended to the end of | time and to eternity. |
| W1:107.15 | Do not forget your function for today. Each | time you tell yourself with confidence, “Truth will correct all |
| W1:108.13 | you much. Effect and cause will be far better understood from this | time on, and we will make much faster progress now. Think of the |
| W1:108.13 | advances in your learning, made still faster and more sure each | time you say: |
| W1:109.5 | fear of future, and no past regrets. In timelessness you rest, while | time goes by without its touch upon you, for your rest can never |
| W1:109.6 | No more fearful dreams will come now that you rest in God. Take | time today to slip away from dreams and into peace. |
| W1:109.7 | a stream long dry begins to flow again. The world is born again each | time you rest, and hourly remember that you came to bring the peace |
| W1:109.8 | five minutes that you rest today the world is nearer waking. And the | time when rest will be the only thing there is comes closer to all |
| W1:109.11 | is made complete, and what we give today we have received already. | Time is not the guardian of what we give today. We give to those |
| W1:109.11 | and where they rest. And we remind them of their resting place each | time we tell ourselves, |
| W1:110.1 | We will repeat today's idea from | time to time. For this one thought would be enough to save you and |
| W1:110.1 | We will repeat today's idea from time to | time. For this one thought would be enough to save you and the world |
| W1:110.2 | which will heal all the mistakes that any mind has made at any | time or place. It is enough to heal the past and make the future |
| W1:110.2 | enough to let the present be accepted as it is. It is enough to let | time be the means for all the world to learn escape from time and |
| W1:110.2 | to let time be the means for all the world to learn escape from | time and every change that time appears to bring in passing by. |

| W1:R3.3 | you skip a practice period because you are unwilling to devote the | time to it which you are asked to give. Do not deceive yourself in |
| W1:R3.11 | Repeat it, and allow your mind to rest a little | time in silence and in peace. Then turn to other things, but try to |

| W1:124.6 | Their thoughts are timeless and apart from distance as apart from | time. |
| W1:124.10 | the thought to which you gave this half an hour, thankfully aware no | time was ever better spent. |
| W1:125.1 | accepts the message which the world must hear to usher in the quiet | time of peace. |
| W1:125.4 | to spread across the world the tidings of salvation and the holy | time of peace. We gather at the throne of God today, the quiet place |
| W1:127.6 | means today, you have advanced in distance without measure and in | time beyond the count of years to your release. |
| W1:127.7 | Let us together, then, be glad to give some | time to God today and understand there is no better use for time than |
| W1:127.7 | some time to God today and understand there is no better use for | time than this. For 15 minutes twice today escape from every law in |
| W1:128.7 | whole perspective on the world will shift by just a little every | time you let your mind escape its chains. The world is not where it |
| W1:129.2 | It might be worth a little | time to think once more about the value of this world. Perhaps you |
| W1:129.2 | No lasting love is found, for none is here. This is the world of | time, where all things end. |
| W1:129.3 | no ending, and they will remain exactly as you want them throughout | time? |
| W1:131.7 | Why wait for Heaven? It is here today. | Time is the great illusion; it is past or in the future. Yet this |
| W1:131.7 | now, without a past and wholly futureless. It is as far removed from | time as is a tiny candle from a distant star, or what you chose from |
| W1:131.9 | He wills to be, and what He wills is present now beyond the reach of | time. |
| W1:131.10 | choose a paradox in place of truth. How could the Son of God make | time to take away the Will of God? He thus denies himself and |
| W1:131.17 | his to Him. This is a day of gladness, for we come to the appointed | time and place where you will find the goal of all your searching |
| W1:131.18 | Remember often that today should be a | time of special gladness, and refrain from dismal thoughts and |
| W1:131.18 | refrain from dismal thoughts and meaningless laments. Salvation's | time has come. Today is set by Heaven Itself to be a time of grace |
| W1:131.18 | Salvation's time has come. Today is set by Heaven Itself to be a | time of grace for you and for the world. If you forget this happy |
| W1:132.3 | what you do not want to find. The present now remains the only | time. Here in the present is the world set free. For as you let the |
| W1:132.10 | as God created you. There is no place where you can suffer and no | time that can bring change to your eternal state. How can a world of |
| W1:132.10 | time that can bring change to your eternal state. How can a world of | time and place exist if you remain as God created you? |
| W1:133.5 | thus delay your final choice until you had considered all of them in | time and not been brought so clearly to the place where there is but |
| W1:133.7 | what you chose is valueless. A temporary value is without all value. | Time can never take away a value that is real. What fades and dies |
| W1:134.14 | Today we practice true forgiveness that the | time of joining be no more delayed. For we would meet with our |
| W1:134.17 | Briefly consider all the evil things you thought of him, and each | time ask yourself “Would I condemn myself for doing this?” |
| W1:134.18 | weight across your chest, a deep and certain feeling of relief. The | time remaining should be given to experiencing the escape from all |
| W1:135.6 | to make it safe, and you but say your home is open to the thief of | time, corruptible and crumbling, so unsafe it must be guarded with |
| W1:135.16 | that it will be provided for unless it makes its own provisions. | Time becomes a future emphasis to be controlled by learning and |
| W1:135.20 | constantly increases as this life becomes a holy instant, set in | time but heeding only immortality. Let no defenses but your present |
| W1:135.21 | for your happiness according to the ancient plan begun when | time was born. Your followers will join their light with yours, and |
| W1:135.22 | We will anticipate that | time today with present confidence, for this is part of what was |
| W1:136.14 | It is this fact which demonstrates that | time is an illusion. For it lets you think what God has given you is |
| W1:136.14 | right now, as it must be. The thoughts of God are quite apart from | time. For time is but another meaningless defense you made against |
| W1:136.14 | as it must be. The thoughts of God are quite apart from time. For | time is but another meaningless defense you made against the truth. |
| W1:136.15 | lay down its arms and cease to play with folly. It is found at any | time—today, if you will choose to practice giving welcome to the |
| W1:136.20 | The body's health is fully guaranteed because it is not limited by | time, by weather or fatigue, by food and drink, or any laws you made |
| W1:137.11 | Those who are healed become the instruments of healing. Nor does | time elapse between the instant they are healed and all the grace of |
| W1:137.13 | hour worth the giving to receive a gift like this? Is not a little | time a small expense to offer for the gift of everything? |
| W1:138.3 | one of conflicting goals become the aim of effort and expenditure of | time. Without decision, time is but a waste and effort dissipated. It |
| W1:138.3 | become the aim of effort and expenditure of time. Without decision, | time is but a waste and effort dissipated. It is spent for nothing in |
| W1:138.3 | waste and effort dissipated. It is spent for nothing in return. And | time goes by without results. There is no sense of gain, for nothing |
| W1:138.7 | So we begin today considering the choice that | time was made to help us make. Such is its holy purpose, now |
| W1:138.9 | in shadows must be raised to understanding to be judged again, this | time with Heaven's help, and all mistakes in judgment which the mind |
| W1:138.12 | hour passed, we have declared our choice again in a brief quiet | time devoted to maintaining sanity. And finally we close the day with |
| W1:139.7 | And they will come again until the | time Atonement is accepted, and they learn it is impossible to doubt |
| W1:140.11 | the same. We have no need to make them different and thus delay the | time when we can hear our Father speak to us. We hear Him now. We |
| W1:R4.1 | Now we review again, this | time aware we are preparing for the second part of learning how the |
| W1:R4.7 | Begin each day with | time devoted to the preparation of your mind to learn what each idea |
| W1:R4.10 | them slowly to yourself. There is no hurry now, for you are using | time for its intended purpose. Let each word shine with the meaning |
| W1:R4.11 | Then repeat the two ideas you practice for the day unhurriedly, with | time enough to see the gifts which they contain for you, and let them |
| W1:R4.12 | as we began, repeating first the thought that made the day a special | time of blessing and of happiness for us and through our faithfulness |
| W1:151.13 | We practice wordlessly today, except at the beginning of the | time you spend with God. We introduce these times with but a single, |
| W1:153.13 | mad by sin and guilt, be happy now. That game is over. Now a quiet | time has come in which we put away the toys of guilt and lock our |
| W1:153.15 | us from our purpose, we will find that half an hour is too short a | time to spend with God. Nor will we willingly give less at night in |
| W1:153.18 | In | time, with practice, you will never cease to think of Him and hear |
| W1:153.18 | would you keep your mind away from Him a moment, even though your | time is spent in offering salvation to the world. Think you He will |
| W1:153.20 | We call upon His strength each | time we feel the threat of our defenses undermine our certainty of |
| W1:155.11 | When dreams are over, | time has closed the door on all the things that pass, and miracles |
| W1:157.1 | This is a day of silence and of trust. It is a special | time of promise in your calendar of days. It is a time Heaven has set |
| W1:157.1 | It is a special time of promise in your calendar of days. It is a | time Heaven has set apart to shine upon and cast a timeless light |
| W1:157.3 | of learning. Yet you have come far enough along the way to alter | time sufficiently to rise above its laws and walk into eternity a |
| W1:157.7 | world to which you will return becomes a little closer to the end of | time, a little more like Heaven in its ways, a little nearer its |
| W1:157.8 | The | time will come when you will not return in the same form in which you |
| W1:158.2 | can. The revelation that the Father and the Son are one will come in | time to every mind. Yet is that time determined by the mind itself, |
| W1:158.2 | and the Son are one will come in time to every mind. Yet is that | time determined by the mind itself, not taught. |
| W1:158.3 | The | time is set already. It appears to be quite arbitrary. Yet there is |
| W1:158.3 | been taken by him, although he has not yet embarked on it. For | time but seems to go in one direction. We but undertake a journey |
| W1:158.4 | Time is a trick—a sleight of hand, a vast illusion in which figures | |
| W1:158.5 | he did not learn it. It revealed itself to him at its appointed | time. But vision is his gift. This he can give directly, for Christ's |
| W1:158.11 | It matters not when revelation comes, for that is not of | time. Yet time has still one gift to give in which true knowledge is |
| W1:158.11 | It matters not when revelation comes, for that is not of time. Yet | time has still one gift to give in which true knowledge is reflected |
| W1:162.1 | single thought, held firmly in the mind, would save the world. From | time to time we will repeat it, as we reach another stage in |
| W1:162.1 | thought, held firmly in the mind, would save the world. From time to | time we will repeat it, as we reach another stage in learning. It |
| W1:162.3 | will save the world because he gives the world what he receives each | time he practices the words of truth. |
| W1:163.3 | is counted on. For it will come with certain footsteps when the | time has come for its arrival. It will never fail to take all life as |
| W1:164.1 | What | time but now can truth be recognized? The present is the only time |
| W1:164.1 | What time but now can truth be recognized? The present is the only | time there is. And so today, this instant, now, we come to look upon |
| W1:164.1 | there—not in our sight, but in the eyes of Christ. He looks past | time and sees eternity as represented there. He hears the sounds the |
| W1:164.3 | for you and answers in your name the call He hears. How quiet is the | time you give to spend with Him beyond the world. How easily are all |
| W1:166.11 | reply: “It is not so.” He points to all the gifts you have each | time the thought of poverty oppresses you and speaks of His |
| W1:167.4 | from their own origin, apart from it in kind as well as distance, | time, and form. |
| W1:167.9 | its Source, it merely seems to go to sleep a while. It dreams of | time—an interval in which what seems to happen never has occurred, |
| W1:169.4 | already set. But we have also said the mind determines when that | time will be and has determined it. And yet we urge you to bear |
| W1:169.6 | cannot be conceived. It lies beyond salvation—past all thought of | time, forgiveness, and the holy face of Christ. The Son of God has |
| W1:169.7 | learned, brings with it the experiences which bear witness that the | time the mind itself determined to abandon all but this is now at |
| W1:169.7 | in His Mind, accomplished and complete. He recognized all that | time holds and gave it to all minds that each one might determine |
| W1:169.7 | it to all minds that each one might determine from a point where | time has ended when it is released to revelation and eternity. |
| W1:169.8 | but make a journey that is done. For oneness must be here. Whatever | time the mind has set for revelation is entirely irrelevant to what |
| W1:169.9 | be known and fully understood. Now we have work to do, for those in | time can speak of things beyond and listen to words which explain |
| W1:169.11 | salvation can bestow. Experience that grace provides will end in | time, for grace foreshadows Heaven yet does not replace the thought |
| W1:169.11 | for grace foreshadows Heaven yet does not replace the thought of | time but for a little while. The interval suffices. It is here that |
| W1:170.9 | This moment can be terrible. But it can also be the | time of your release from abject slavery. You make a choice, standing |
| W1:170.12 | The choice you make today is certain. For you look for the last | time upon this bit of carven stone you made and call it god no |
| W1:170.12 | still another form, and so the fear of God returned with you. This | time you leave it here. And you return to a new world unburdened by |
| W1:R5.1 | We now review again. This | time we are ready to give more effort and more time to what we |
| W1:R5.1 | review again. This time we are ready to give more effort and more | time to what we undertake. We recognize we are preparing for another |
| W1:R5.7 | step we take brings us a little nearer. This review will shorten | time immeasurably if we keep in mind that This remains our goal, and |
| W1:R5.9 | My resurrection comes again each | time I lead a brother safely to the place at which the journey ends |
| W1:R5.9 | the place at which the journey ends and is forgot. I am renewed each | time a brother learns there is a way from misery and pain. I am |
| W1:R5.9 | brother learns there is a way from misery and pain. I am reborn each | time a brother's mind turns to the light in him and looks for me. I |
| W1:R5.10 | given Him. Together we review these thoughts. Together we devote our | time and effort to them. And together we will teach them to our |
| W1:R5.10 | whole, we go together to our ancient home, prepared for us before | time was and kept unchanged by time, immaculate and safe, as it will |
| W1:R5.10 | ancient home, prepared for us before time was and kept unchanged by | time, immaculate and safe, as it will be at last, when time is done. |
| W1:R5.10 | unchanged by time, immaculate and safe, as it will be at last, when | time is done. |
| W1:R5.12 | Let this review become a | time in which we share a new experience for you, yet one as old as |
| W1:R5.12 | a time in which we share a new experience for you, yet one as old as | time, and older still. Hallowed your name. Your glory undefiled |
| W1:R5.12 | And we remind the world that it is free of all illusions every | time we say, |
| W1:R5.14 | of our review. With this we start and end each period of practice | time. And with this thought we sleep, to waken once again with these |
| W1:I2.1 | into one intent. You are not asked for total dedication all the | time, as yet. But you are asked to practice now in order to attain |
| W1:181.3 | an instant previous has no concern for us within this interval of | time wherein we practice changing our intent. We seek for innocence |
| W1:181.5 | what we will believe will not intrude upon us now. We enter in the | time of practicing with one intent—to look upon the sinlessness |
| W1:182.2 | try to put by their suffering in games they play to occupy their | time and keep their sadness from them. Others will deny that they are |
| W1:182.5 | You are His home as well. He will return. But give Him just a little | time to be Himself within the peace that is His home, resting in |
| W1:182.10 | Christ is reborn as but a little Child each | time a wanderer would leave his home. For he must learn that what he |
| W1:182.10 | and Who is protected by defenselessness. Go home with Him from | time to time today. You are as much an alien here as He. |
| W1:182.10 | Who is protected by defenselessness. Go home with Him from time to | time today. You are as much an alien here as He. |
| W1:182.11 | Take | time today to lay aside your shield which profits nothing and lay |
| W1:184.1 | you give a different name—all happenings in terms of place and | time, all bodies which are greeted by a name. |
| W1:185.1 | be no further sorrow possible for you in any form, in any place or | time. Heaven would be completely given back to full awareness, memory |
| W1:187.4 | value not its form. For this will change and grow unrecognizable in | time, however much you try to keep it safe. No form endures. It is |
| W1:190.4 | Peace to such foolishness! The | time has come to laugh at such insane ideas. There is no need to |
| W1:190.8 | the Son He loves. In pain does fear appear to triumph over love and | time replace eternity and Heaven. And the world becomes a cruel and a |
| W1:191.10 | all dark and ancient caverns where the rites of death echoed since | time began. For time has lost its hold upon the world. The Son of God |
| W1:191.10 | caverns where the rites of death echoed since time began. For | time has lost its hold upon the world. The Son of God has come in |
| W1:192.8 | He must be sure that he does not escape, and so he spends his | time in keeping watch on him. The bars which limit him become the |
| W1:192.9 | of bind, for thus are you made free. The way is simple. Every | time you feel a stab of anger, realize you hold a sword above your |
| W1:193.13 | with none remaining yet unshed and none but waiting their appointed | time to fall. For God has willed that laughter should replace each |
| W1:193.14 | try to hold it off another day, another minute, or another instant. | Time was made for this. Use it today for what its purpose is. Morning |
| W1:193.14 | Use it today for what its purpose is. Morning and night, devote what | time you can to serve its proper aim, and do not let the time be less |
| W1:193.14 | devote what time you can to serve its proper aim, and do not let the | time be less than meets your deepest need. |
| W1:193.16 | Each hour spend a little | time today, and in the days to come, in practicing the lesson in |
| W1:193.16 | so that the next one is free of the one before. The chains of | time are easily unloosened in this way. |
| W1:193.17 | it. Thus will you remain unbound, in peace eternal in the world of | time. This is the lesson God would have you learn: there is a way to |
| W1:194.3 | given unto God in passing, with the next one given Him already, is a | time of your release from sadness, pain and even death itself. |
| W1:194.4 | you are not asked to understand the lack of sequence really found in | time. You are but asked to let the future go and place it in God's |
| W1:194.5 | of grief and misery, of pain and loss, becomes the instant in which | time escapes the bondage of illusions where it runs its pitiless, |
| W1:194.5 | inevitable course. Then is each instant, which was slave to | time, transformed into a holy instant when the light that was kept |
| W1:195.10 | Our gratitude will pave the way to Him and shorten our learning | time by more than you could ever dream of. Gratitude goes hand in |
| W1:196.4 | sequence as the mind relinquishes its burdens one by one. It is not | time we need for this. It is but willingness. And what would seem to |
| W1:196.11 | for your death, intent on plotting punishment for you until the | time when it can kill at last. Yet in this instant is the time as |
| W1:196.11 | until the time when it can kill at last. Yet in this instant is the | time as well in which salvation comes. For fear of God has |
| W1:198.15 | to us the gift that God has given us through Him today. Now is it | time for your deliverance. The time has come. The time has come today. |
| W1:198.15 | given us through Him today. Now is it time for your deliverance. The | time has come. The time has come today. |
| W1:198.15 | today. Now is it time for your deliverance. The time has come. The | time has come today. |
| W1:199.2 | Holy Spirit is unlimited forever, in all ways, beyond the laws of | time and space, unbound by any preconceptions, and with strength and |
| W1:199.8 | even to it. And God Himself extends His Love and happiness each | time you say: |
| W1:200.9 | Only if we attempt to wander can there be delay and needless wasted | time on thorny byways. God alone is sure, and He will guide our |
| W1:200.11 | We seek no further. We are close to home and draw still nearer every | time we say: |
| W1:R6.1 | idea each day, and practice it as often as is possible. Besides the | time we give morning and evening, which should not be less than 15 |
| W1:R6.5 | The day begins and ends with this. And we repeat it every | time the hour strikes or we remember in between we have a function |
| W1:R6.6 | and special forms of practicing for this review. For we attempt this | time to reach a quickened pace along a shorter path to the serenity |
| W1:R6.11 | His charge and let Him teach you what to do and say and think each | time you turn to Him. He will not fail to be available to you each |
| W1:R6.11 | time you turn to Him. He will not fail to be available to you each | time you call to Him to help you. Let us offer Him the whole review |
| W1:204.1 | inheritance. God's Name reminds me that I am His Son, not slave to | time, unbound by laws which rule the world of sick illusions, free in |
| W2:I.2 | along the road, and now we wait for Him. We will continue spending | time with Him each morning and at night, as long as makes us happy. |
| W2:I.2 | and at night, as long as makes us happy. We will not consider | time a matter of duration now. We use as much as we will need for the |
| W2:I.5 | Now is the | time of prophecy fulfilled. Now are all ancient promises upheld and |
| W2:I.5 | are all ancient promises upheld and fully kept. No step remains for | time to separate from its accomplishment. For now we cannot fail. Sit |
| W2:I.8 | darkness of our minds. His Love has called to us unceasingly since | time began. |
| W2:I.11 | One further use for words we still retain. From | time to time, instructions on a theme of special relevance will |
| W2:I.11 | One further use for words we still retain. From time to | time, instructions on a theme of special relevance will intersperse |
| W2:230.2 | What was given then must be here now, for my creation was apart from | time and still remains beyond all change. The peace in which Your Son |
| W2:WS.1 | your way to Him at last. It cannot but be kept. It guarantees that | time will have an end, and all the thoughts that have been born in |
| W2:WS.1 | time will have an end, and all the thoughts that have been born in | time will end as well. God's Word is given every mind which thinks |
| W2:WS.5 | is the call to all the world that freedom is returned, that | time is almost over, and God's Son has but an instant more to wait |
| W2:232.1 | wake and shine on me throughout the day today. Let every minute be a | time in which I dwell with You. And let me not forget my hourly |
| W2:233.1 | will instead of seeking goals which cannot be obtained and wasting | time in vain imaginings. Today I come to You. I will step back and |
| W2:234.1 | Today we will anticipate the | time when dreams of sin and guilt are gone and we have reached again |
| W2:241.1 | What joy there is today! It is a | time of special celebration. For today holds out the instant to the |
| W2:241.1 | glory of salvation dawns today upon a world set free. This is the | time of hope for countless millions. They will be united now as you |
| W2:264.1 | the sounds I hear, and every hand that reaches for my own. In You | time disappears and place becomes a meaningless belief. For what |
| W2:270.1 | to truth, and waits expectantly the one remaining instant more of | time, which ends forever as Your memory returns to him. And now his |
| W2:WIC.5 | long will this holy face be seen, when it is but the symbol that the | time for learning now is over and the goal of the Atonement has been |
| W2:WIC.5 | glory will we know we have no need of learning or perception or of | time, or anything except the holy Self, the Christ Whom God created |
| W2:275.1 | true today than any other day. Yet has this day been chosen as the | time when we will seek and hear and learn and understand. Join me in |
| W2:277.1 | is not changed by what is changeable. He is not slave to any laws of | time. He is as You created him, because he knows no laws except the |
| W2:279.1 | God's Son is not abandoned by His Love. Only in dreams is there a | time when he appears to be in prison and awaits a future freedom if |
| W2:286.1 | things fall in place! This is the day that has been chosen as the | time in which I come to understand the lesson that there is no need |
| W2:WIRW.4 | promise that he is redeemed. The real world signifies the end of | time, for its perception makes time purposeless. |
| W2:WIRW.4 | The real world signifies the end of time, for its perception makes | time purposeless. |
| W2:WIRW.5 | The Holy Spirit has no need of | time when it has served His purpose. Now He waits but that one |
| W2:WIRW.5 | waits but that one instant more for God to take His final step, and | time has disappeared, taking perception with it as it goes and |
| W2:WISC.3 | extend beyond itself and reaches up to God. The Second Coming is the | time in which all minds are given to the hands of Christ, to be |
| W2:WISC.4 | The Second Coming is the one event in | time which time itself cannot affect. For everyone who ever came to |
| W2:WISC.4 | The Second Coming is the one event in time which | time itself cannot affect. For everyone who ever came to die or yet |
| W2:308.1 | I have conceived of | time in such a way that I defeat my aim. If I elect to reach past |
| W2:308.1 | of time in such a way that I defeat my aim. If I elect to reach past | time to timelessness, I must change my perception of what time is |
| W2:308.1 | reach past time to timelessness, I must change my perception of what | time is for. Time's purpose cannot be to keep the past and future |
| W2:308.1 | past and future one. The only interval in which I can be saved from | time is now. For in this instant has forgiveness come to set me free. |
| W2:308.2 | this instant, Father. It is now I am redeemed. This instant is the | time You have appointed for Your Son's release and for salvation of |
| W2:310.1 | chosen all my days should be. And what I will experience is not of | time at all. The joy that comes to me is not of days nor hours, for |
| W2:316.1 | is given me in every gift a brother has received throughout all | time and past all time as well. My treasure house is full, and angels |
| W2:316.1 | every gift a brother has received throughout all time and past all | time as well. My treasure house is full, and angels watch its open |
| W2:317.1 | as what I choose to do. Until I make this choice, I am the slave of | time and human destiny. But when I willingly and gladly go the way my |
| W2:WICR.1 | all limit. Only Love creates and only like Itself. There was no | time when all that It created was not there. Nor will there be a time |
| W2:WICR.1 | no time when all that It created was not there. Nor will there be a | time when anything that It created suffers any change. Forever and |
| W2:WICR.1 | thoughts exactly as they were and as they are, unchanged through | time and after time is done. |
| W2:WICR.1 | as they were and as they are, unchanged through time and after | time is done. |
| W2:WICR.2 | create. What God has willed to be forever one will still be one when | time is over and will not be changed throughout the course of time, |
| W2:WICR.2 | when time is over and will not be changed throughout the course of | time, remaining as it was before the thought of time began. |
| W2:WICR.2 | the course of time, remaining as it was before the thought of | time began. |
| W2:346.1 | And so begins the day I share with You as I will share eternity, for | time has stepped aside today. I do not seek the things of time, and |
| W2:346.1 | for time has stepped aside today. I do not seek the things of | time, and so I will not look upon them. What I seek today transcends |
| W2:346.1 | I will not look upon them. What I seek today transcends all laws of | time and things perceived in time. I would forget all things except |
| W2:346.1 | I seek today transcends all laws of time and things perceived in | time. I would forget all things except Your Love. I would abide in |
| W2:354.1 | with the Christ establishes me as Your Son, beyond the reach of | time and wholly free of every law but Yours. I have no self except |
| W2:FL.2 | because it is this ending God Himself appointed. In the dream of | time, it seems to be far off. And yet in truth, it is already here, |
| W2:FL.6 | Words is all there is and all that there will be throughout all | time and in eternity. |
| W2:E.5 | we say “Amen.” We will be told exactly what God wills for us each | time there is a choice to make. And He will speak for God and for |

| M:I.1 | in which one engages only a relatively small proportion of one's | time. The course, on the other hand, emphasizes that to teach is to |
| M:I.2 | you demonstrate that you believe one or the other is true all the | time. From your demonstration, others learn and so do you. The |
| M:1.2 | ones who have answered. The Call is universal. It goes on all the | time everywhere. It calls for teachers to speak for it and redeem the |
| M:1.2 | world. Many hear it, but few will answer. But it is all a matter of | time. Everyone will answer in the end, but the end can be a long, |
| M:1.2 | the plan of the teachers was established. Their function is to save | time. Each one begins as a single light, but with the Call at its |
| M:1.2 | light that cannot be limited. And each one saves a thousand years of | time as the world judges it. To the Call itself, time has no meaning. |
| M:1.2 | a thousand years of time as the world judges it. To the Call itself, | time has no meaning. |
| M:1.3 | or soundlessly, in any language or in no language, in any place or | time or manner. It does not matter who the teacher was before he |
| M:1.4 | of other forms, all with the same outcome. They merely save | time. Yet it is time alone that winds on wearily, and the world is |
| M:1.4 | forms, all with the same outcome. They merely save time. Yet it is | time alone that winds on wearily, and the world is very tired now. It |
| M:1.4 | a question of outcome, for what can change the Will of God? But | time, with its illusions of change and death, wears out the world and |
| M:1.4 | of change and death, wears out the world and all things in it. Yet | time has an ending, and it is this that the teachers of God are |
| M:1.4 | is this that the teachers of God are appointed to bring about. For | time is in their hands. Such was their choice, and it is given them. |
| M:2.1 | for him, for his coming is certain. Again, it is only a matter of | time. Once he has chosen to fulfill his role, they are ready to |
| M:2.1 | he has chosen to fulfill his role, they are ready to fulfill theirs. | Time waits on his choice but not whom he will serve. When he is ready |
| M:2.2 | plan of salvation, it is necessary to grasp the concept of | time which the course sets forth. Atonement corrects illusions, not |
| M:2.2 | completed simultaneously, for the Will of God is entirely apart from | time. So is all reality, being of Him. The instant the idea of |
| M:2.2 | Mind of God's Son, in that same instant was God's Answer given. In | time this happened very long ago. In reality it never happened at all. |
| M:2.3 | The world of | time is the world of illusion. What happened long ago seems to be |
| M:2.3 | your will is free, you can accept what has already happened at any | time you choose, and only then will you realize that it was always |
| M:2.4 | Time really, then, goes backward to an instant so ancient that it is | |
| M:2.4 | other as if they had not met before. The pupil comes at the right | time to the right place. This is inevitable, because he made the |
| M:2.4 | out of an ancient past. God's Will in everything but seems to take | time in the working-out. What could delay the Power of eternity? |
| M:3.3 | the universal course is a concept as meaningless in reality as is | time. The illusion of one permits the illusion of the other. In time, |
| M:3.3 | is time. The illusion of one permits the illusion of the other. In | time, the teacher of God seems to begin to change his mind about the |
| M:3.3 | the new direction as he teaches it. We have covered the illusion of | time already, but the illusion of levels of teaching seems to be |
| M:3.4 | will learn the most that he can from the other person at that | time. In this sense, and in this sense only, we can speak of levels |
| M:3.4 | level of teaching is a more sustained relationship in which for a | time two people enter into a fairly intense teaching-learning |
| M:3.4 | a real end. Again, each has learned the most he can at the | time. Yet all who meet will someday meet again, for it is the destiny |
| M:3.5 | do not. They may even be quite hostile to each other for some | time, and perhaps for life. Yet should they decide to learn it, the |
| M:4.1 | Atonement. Their specialness is, of course, only temporary—set in | time as a means of leading out of time. These special gifts, born in |
| M:4.1 | of course, only temporary—set in time as a means of leading out of | time. These special gifts, born in the holy relationship toward which |
| M:4.2 | All differences among the Sons of God are temporary. Nevertheless, in | time it can be said that the advanced teachers of God have the |
| M:4.8 | Now comes a “period of settling down.” This is a quiet | time in which the teacher of God rests a while in reasonable peace. |
| M:4.9 | he must attain a state that may remain impossible for a long, long | time. He must learn to lay all judgment aside and ask only what he |
| M:4.20 | natural to the teacher of God. All he sees is certain outcome, at a | time perhaps unknown as yet, but not in doubt. The time will be as |
| M:4.20 | outcome, at a time perhaps unknown as yet, but not in doubt. The | time will be as right as is the answer. And this is true for |
| M:4.20 | to whom it seemed to happen. Perhaps it was not understood at the | time. Even so, the teacher of God is willing to reconsider all his |
| M:4.20 | who trust. Sure of the ultimate interpretation of all things in | time, no outcome already seen or yet to come can cause them fear. |
| M:4.21 | by resting on just some problems, remaining carefully limited for a | time. To give up all problems to one Answer is to reverse the |
| M:6.2 | Where healing has been given, it will be received. And what is | time before the gifts of God? We have referred many times in the text |
| M:8.6 | real. Just as reality is wholly real, apart from size and shape and | time and place—for differences cannot exist within it—so too are |
| M:10.1 | person classifies the same action as showing “good” judgment at one | time and “bad” judgment at another time. Nor can any consistent |
| M:10.1 | as showing “good” judgment at one time and “bad” judgment at another | time. Nor can any consistent criteria for determining what these |
| M:10.1 | for determining what these categories are be really taught. At any | time, the student may disagree with what his would-be teacher says |
| M:10.6 | is its result. All of the loneliness and sense of loss, of passing | time and growing hopelessness; of sickening despair and fear of death |
| M:11.2 | Again we come to the question of judgment. This | time, ask yourself whether your judgment or the Word of God is more |
| M:13.5 | And so he seeks it in a thousand ways and in a thousand places, each | time believing it is there and each time disappointed in the end. |
| M:13.5 | and in a thousand places, each time believing it is there and each | time disappointed in the end. “Seek but do not find,” remains this |
| M:14.3 | thought of sin remains” appears to be a long-range goal indeed. But | time stands still and waits on the goals of God's teachers. Not one |
| M:15.1 | free. This is the judgment in which all things are freed with him. | Time pauses as eternity comes near, and silence lies across the world |
| M:15.3 | this, and you will go beyond belief to certainty. One instant out of | time can bring time's end. Judge not, for you but judge yourself and |
| M:16.2 | with error, yet there are obvious advantages in terms of saving | time if the need for this can be avoided. |
| M:16.3 | At the beginning, it is wise to think in terms of | time. This is by no means the ultimate criterion, but at the outset, |
| M:16.3 | at the outset, it is probably the simplest to observe. The saving of | time is an essential early emphasis which, although it remains |
| M:16.3 | less and less emphasized. At the outset, we can safely say that | time devoted to starting the day right does indeed save time. How |
| M:16.3 | say that time devoted to starting the day right does indeed save | time. How much time should be so spent? This must depend on the |
| M:16.3 | devoted to starting the day right does indeed save time. How much | time should be so spent? This must depend on the teacher of God |
| M:16.4 | awakes. If this is so, let him but remember that he chooses to spend | time with God as soon as possible, and let him do so. Duration is not |
| M:16.4 | be made is this—as soon as possible after waking, take your quiet | time, continuing a minute or two after you begin to find it |
| M:16.4 | that the difficulty will diminish and drop away. If not, that is the | time to stop. |
| M:16.5 | The same procedures should be followed at night. Perhaps your quiet | time should be fairly early in the evening if it is not feasible for |
| M:16.5 | If possible, however, just before going to sleep is a desirable | time to devote to God. It sets your mind into a pattern of rest and |
| M:16.5 | and orients you away from fear. If it is expedient to spend this | time earlier, at least be sure that you do not forget a brief period |
| M:16.8 | day of his protection. How can he do this, particularly during the | time when his mind is occupied with external things? He can but try, |
| M:16.8 | He must be sure success is not of him but will be given him at any | time, in any place and circumstance he calls for it. There are times |
| M:19.2 | short indeed of all that awaits one when the pathway ceases and | time ends with it. But somewhere one must start. Justice is the |
| M:22.2 | on whether he recognizes the Atonement's inclusiveness or for a | time excludes some problem areas from it. In some cases, there is a |
| M:23.7 | there are. Would God leave anyone without a very present help in | time of trouble? A savior who can symbolize Himself? Yet do we need a |
| M:24.4 | He should both learn and teach that theoretical issues but waste | time, draining it away from its appointed purpose. If there are |
| M:24.6 | is here. There is nowhere else. Heaven is now. There is no other | time. No teaching that does not lead to this is of concern to God's |
| M:26.2 | to them, and all mistakes are recognized and overlooked by them. The | time will come when this is understood. And meanwhile they give all |
| M:26.3 | much devotion and dedication and then be maintained for most of the | time on earth. But this is so rare that it cannot be considered a |
| M:28.4 | hearts are tranquil, with a stir of deep anticipation, for the | time of everlasting things is now at hand. There is no death. The Son |
| M:29.1 | it is called a manual for teachers, it must be remembered that only | time divides teacher and pupil, so that the difference is temporary |
| M:29.7 | future but immediately—now. God does not wait, for waiting implies | time and He is timeless. Forget your foolish images, your sense of |
| M:29.8 | which His Voice is heard around the world to close all things of | time, to end the sight of all things visible, and to undo all things |

| W1:73.17 | This should be repeated several | times an hour. It is most important, however, to apply today's idea |
| W1:74.3 | Begin the longer practice periods by repeating these thoughts several | times, slowly and with firm determination to understand what they |
| W1:75.7 | merely wait to have it shown to you. While you wait, repeat several | times slowly and in complete patience: |
| W1:76.14 | this dedication as often as possible today—at least four or five | times an hour, as well as in response to any temptation to experience |

| W1:126.4 | whim, benevolent yet undeserved; a gift bestowed at times, at other | times withheld. Unmerited, withholding it is just, nor is it fair |

| W1:127.11 | of us outside our love if we would know our Self. At least three | times an hour think of one who makes the journey with you and who |
| W1:128.7 | Give it ten minutes rest three | times today. And when your eyes are opened afterwards, you will not |
| W1:130.7 | Six | times today in thanks and gratitude we gladly give five minutes to |
| W1:131.11 | we ask to reach today. We will devote ten minutes to this goal three | times today, and we will ask to see the rising of the real world to |
| W1:134.19 | should be practiced through the day, for there will be so many | times when you forget its meaning and attack yourself. When this |
| W1:135.26 | extravagant demands for sacrifice. You give up nothing in these | times today when undefended you present yourself to your Creator as |
| W1:151.13 | at the beginning of the time you spend with God. We introduce these | times with but a single, slow repeating of the thought with which the |
| W1:153.16 | as we remember to be faithful to the will we share with God. At | times, perhaps, a minute, even less, will be the most that we can |
| W1:153.16 | we can offer as the hour strikes. Sometimes we will forget. At other | times the business of the world will close on us, and we will be |
| W1:154.12 | until we give it. You have heard this said a hundred ways, a hundred | times, and yet belief is lacking still. But this is sure—until |
| W1:156.8 | “Who walks with me?” This question should be asked a thousand | times a day, till certainty has ended doubting and established peace. |
| W1:159.5 | solid here are merely shadows there, transparent, faintly seen, at | times forgot, and never able to obscure the light that shines beyond |
| W1:161.6 | is the reason bodies easily become fear's symbols. You have many | times been urged to look beyond the body, for its sight presents the |
| W1:169.8 | We have repeated several | times before that you but make a journey that is done. For oneness |
| W1:182.1 | a persistent feeling, sometimes not more than a tiny throb, at other | times hardly remembered, actively dismissed, but surely to return to |
| W1:185.10 | perhaps unknown to them, but sure to you. You have been weak at | times, uncertain in your purpose and unsure of what you wanted, where |
| W1:186.10 | which the world esteems are so uncertain that they change ten | times an hour at their most secure. What hope of gain can rest on |
| W1:R6.10 | for specific thoughts to aid your practicing. Instead we give these | times of quiet to the Teacher Who instructs in quiet, speaks of |
| W2:I.1 | alone. The lessons which remain are merely introductions to the | times in which we leave the world of pain and go to enter peace. Now |
| W2:I.3 | all the days to come. And we will use that thought to introduce our | times of rest and calm our minds at need. Yet we will not content |
| W2:I.4 | to make us happy? We will offer it, and it will be accepted. So our | times with Him will now be spent. We say the words of invitation that |
| W2:I.6 | I am so close to you we cannot fail. Father, we give these holy | times to You in gratitude to Him Who taught us how to leave the world |
| W2:236.1 | I have a kingdom I must rule. At | times, it does not seem I am its king at all. It seems to triumph |
| W2:284.1 | Such is the truth—at first to be but said and then repeated many | times and next to be accepted as but partly true with many |
| M:4.10 | gains, to be counted on in all “emergencies” as well as tranquil | times. Indeed, the tranquility is their result—the outcome of |
| M:6.2 | And what is time before the gifts of God? We have referred many | times in the text to the storehouse of treasures laid up equally for |
| M:10.4 | Remember how many | times you thought you knew all the “facts” you needed for judgment, |
| M:10.4 | anyone who has not had this experience? Would you know how many | times you merely thought you were right, without ever realizing you |
| M:16.7 | he has let them go. There is no difference in his state at different | times and different places, because they are all one to God. This is |
| M:16.8 | any time, in any place and circumstance he calls for it. There are | times his certainty will waver, and the instant this occurs he will |
| M:17.2 | that results will always come to teacher and to pupil. How many | times has it been emphasized that you give but to yourself? And where |
| M:24.1 | and the idea of birth into a body has no meaning either once or many | times. Reincarnation cannot, then, be true in any real sense. Our |

| Tx:18.72 | The body cannot know. And while you limit your awareness to its | tiny senses, you will not see the grandeur which surrounds you. God |
| Tx:18.72 | seem to shut Him out and to keep you apart from Him. The body is a | tiny fence around a little part of a glorious and complete idea. It |

| Tx:18.75 | and in no way joined to the Thought by which it was created. Each | tiny fragment seems to be self-contained, needing each other for some |

| Tx:18.81 | everything, you will receive it. And your shining Self will lift the | tiny aspect which you tried to hide from Heaven straight into Heaven. |
| Tx:18.84 | that error must be corrected at its source. Therefore, it is the | tiny part of yourself, the little thought that seems split off and |
| Tx:18.85 | by attack, and reinforced by hate. Within its barricades is still a | tiny segment of the Son of God, complete and holy, serene and unaware |
| Tx:19.41 | through you? Would you let a little bank of sand, a wall of dust, a | tiny seeming barrier, stand between your brothers and salvation? And |
| Tx:19.46 | Now it is aimless, wandering pointlessly, causing no more than | tiny interruptions in love's appeal. |

| Tx:22.48 | the universe forever sings as one? Which is the stronger? Is it this | tiny mouse or everything that God created? You are not joined |

| Tx:23.4 | up this world of freedom for a little sigh of seeming sin nor for a | tiny stirring of guilt's attraction. Would you, for all these |
| Tx:24.12 | diminishes would be your savior, had you not chosen to make of him a | tiny measure of your specialness instead. Against the littleness you |
| Tx:24.15 | your specialness to which you listen and which asks and answers? Its | tiny answer, soundless in the melody which pours from God to you |
| Tx:24.24 | God cannot enter and a hiding-place where none is welcome but your | tiny self. Nothing is sacred here but unto you and you alone, apart |
| Tx:24.43 | in the dark forest of the sightless, unlit but by the shifting | tiny gleams that spark an instant from the fireflies of sin and then |
| Tx:24.60 | of self you understand, nor do you deem this cost too heavy. But a | tiny willingness, a nod to God, a greeting to the Christ in you, you |
| Tx:25.8 | shares His Father's Will. The Holy Spirit links the other part, the | tiny mad desire to be separate, different, and special, to the |
| Tx:26.5 | cannot be seen, to add a limitless supply to every meager scrap and | tiny crumb of happiness that you allot yourself. |
| Tx:26.16 | all of them are little in His sight and worth no more than just a | tiny sigh before they disappear, to be forever undone and |
| Tx:26.29 | each one joins the singing at the altar which was raised within the | tiny spot that sin proclaimed to be its own. And what was tiny then |
| Tx:26.29 | within the tiny spot that sin proclaimed to be its own. And what was | tiny then has soared into a magnitude of song in which the universe |
| Tx:26.29 | song in which the universe has joined with but a single voice. This | tiny spot of sin that stands between you still is holding back the |
| Tx:26.32 | exactly as it was before the way to nothingness was made. The | tiny tick of time in which the first mistake was made, and all of |
| Tx:26.32 | for that one and all of them that came within the first. And in that | tiny instant time was gone, for that was all it ever was. What God |
| Tx:26.34 | The | tiny instant you would keep and make eternal passed away in Heaven |
| Tx:26.34 | —did this world appear to rise. So very long ago, for such a | tiny interval of time that not one note in Heaven's song was missed. |
| Tx:26.61 | thus denies that everything is his, unlimited by loss of any kind. A | tiny sacrifice is just the same in its effects as is the whole idea |

| Tx:27.71 | never be perceived as one in which the choice is split between a | tiny you and an enormous world, with different dreams about the truth |
| Tx:27.82 | and done to him. Into eternity, where all is one, there crept a | tiny mad idea at which the Son of God remembered not to laugh. In his |

| Tx:29.21 | of death is yet one theme of truth—no more, perhaps, than just a | tiny spark, a space of light created in the dark, where God still |
| Tx:29.36 | of death have come to worship in a separated world, each with his | tiny spear and rusted sword to keep his ancient promises to die. |
| Tx:30.20 | and that you need, because you do not like the way you feel. This | tiny opening will be enough to let you go ahead with just a few more |

| Tx:31.96 | to join with me, the song of thanks from earth to Heaven grows from | tiny scattered threads of melody to one inclusive chorus from a world |
| W1:28.3 | than telling it what it is. You are not binding its meaning to your | tiny experience of tables, nor are you limiting its purpose to your |
| W1:67.8 | Try to realize in the shorter practice periods that this is not your | tiny solitary voice that tells you this. This is the Voice for God |
| W1:93.11 | the Self which God created as you by hiding its majesty behind the | tiny idols of evil and sinfulness you have made to replace it. Let it |
| W1:97.7 | gift you gave as much as does the radiance of the sun outshine the | tiny gleam a firefly makes an uncertain moment, and goes out. Yet |
| W1:98.7 | Each hour today give Him your | tiny gift of but five minutes. He will give the words you use in |
| W1:126.8 | He share your practicing in truth today. And if you only catch a | tiny glimpse of the release which lies in the idea we practice for |
| W1:131.7 | a past and wholly futureless. It is as far removed from time as is a | tiny candle from a distant star, or what you chose from what you |
| W1:131.16 | so bright and clear that you can understand all things you see. A | tiny moment of surprise, perhaps, will make you pause before you |
| W1:153.8 | our minds, and we mistook the figures in it for the Son of God, its | tiny instant for eternity. |
| W1:182.1 | an exile here. Just a persistent feeling, sometimes not more than a | tiny throb, at other times hardly remembered, actively dismissed, but |
| W1:182.6 | far from home. He is so little that He seems so easily shut out, His | tiny Voice so readily obscured, His calls for help almost unheard |
| W1:183.5 | call upon your Self, Whose Name is His. Repeat His Name and all the | tiny, nameless things on earth slip into right perspective. Those who |
| W1:191.3 | own Identity, and you assail the universe alone, without a friend, a | tiny particle of dust against the legions of your enemies. Deny your |
| W2:234.1 | and we have reached again the holy peace we never left. Merely a | tiny instant has elapsed between eternity and timelessness. So brief |
| W2:300.2 | today the world endures but for an instant. We would go beyond that | tiny instant to eternity. |
| M:4.4 | one's own petty strength again. Who would attempt to fly with the | tiny wings of a sparrow when the mighty power of an eagle has been |
| M:14.4 | by those not yet prepared to leave the world and go beyond its | tiny reach. What, then, is the function of the teacher of God in this |

| W1:7.10 | of whatever you look at. Acknowledge this by applying the idea for | today indiscriminately to whatever catches your eye. For example: |

| W1:20.5 | Repeat today's idea slowly and positively at least twice an hour | today, attempting to do so every half hour. Do not be distressed if |
| W1:21.1 | The idea for | today is obviously a continuation and extension of the preceding one. |
| W1:22.3 | Look at the world about you at least five times | today, for at least a minute each time. As your eyes move slowly from |

| W1:39.5 | full five minutes are urged for the four longer practice periods for | today. Longer and more frequent practice sessions are encouraged. If |
| W1:39.8 | that stands between you and your salvation. Apply the idea for | today to each one of them in this way: |
| W1:40.1 | Today we will begin to assert some of the happy things to which you | |
| W1:40.1 | entitled, being what you are. No long practice periods are required | today, but very frequent short ones are necessary. Once every ten |
| W1:41.2 | The idea for | today has the power to end all this foolishness forever. And |
| W1:41.4 | insane thoughts, dense and obscuring, yet representing all you see? | Today we will make our first real attempt to get past this dark and |
| W1:41.5 | There will be only one long practice period | today. In the morning, as soon as you get up if possible, sit quietly |
| W1:42.1 | The idea for | today combines two very powerful thoughts, both of major importance. |
| W1:42.3 | We will have two three- to five-minute longer exercise periods | today, one as soon as possible after you wake and another as close as |
| W1:42.4 | Begin the practice period by repeating the idea for | today slowly with eyes open, looking about you. Then close your eyes |
| W1:43.4 | Three five-minute practice periods are required | today, one as early as possible and another as late as possible. The |
| W1:43.18 | Try | today not to allow long periods of time to slip by without |
| W1:44.1 | Today we are continuing with the idea for yesterday, adding another | |
| W1:44.3 | Today we are going to attempt to reach that light. For this purpose, | |
| W1:44.4 | Have at least three practice periods | today, each lasting three to five minutes. A longer time is highly |
| W1:44.4 | with little or no sense of strain. The form of exercise we will use | today is the most natural and easy one in the world for the trained |
| W1:44.5 | You are quite ready to learn the form of exercise we will use | today, but you may find that you will encounter strong resistance. |
| W1:44.11 | at the time. Do not forget. Above all, be determined not to forget | today. |
| W1:45.3 | Where, then, are your real thoughts? | Today we will attempt to reach them. We will have to look for them in |
| W1:45.4 | Our three five-minute practice periods for | today will take the same general form that we used in applying |
| W1:45.5 | us do. There is every reason to feel confident that you will succeed | today. It is the Will of God. |
| W1:45.6 | Begin the exercises for | today by repeating the idea to yourself, closing your eyes as you do |
| W1:45.10 | changeless. It is this foundation toward which the exercises for | today are directed. Here is your mind joined with the Mind of God. |
| W1:46.6 | position to forgive yourself. After you have applied the idea for | today to all those who have come to mind, tell yourself, |
| W1:46.13 | applications may consist either of a repetition of the idea for | today in the original or in a related form as you prefer. Be sure, |
| W1:47.4 | Today we will try to reach past your own weakness to the Source of | |
| W1:47.4 | of real strength. Four five-minute practice periods are necessary | today, and longer and more frequent ones are urged. Close your eyes |
| W1:47.9 | Repeat the idea for | today often. Use it as your answer to any disturbance. Remember that |
| W1:48.1 | The idea for | today simply states a fact. It is not a fact to those who believe in |
| W1:49.2 | frantic and distraught, but without reality of any kind. Try | today not to listen to it. Try to identify with the part of your mind |
| W1:49.3 | We will need at least four five-minute practice periods | today and more if possible. We will try actually to hear the Voice |
| W1:49.5 | possible. And be sure that you sit quietly and repeat the idea for | today slowly whenever you can, closing your eyes on the world and |
| W1:50.1 | Here is the answer to every problem that confronts you | today and tomorrow and throughout time. In this world, you believe |
| W1:50.3 | and forever unfailing. This is the answer to whatever confronts you | today. Through the Love of God in you, you can resolve all seeming |
| W1:50.3 | without effort and in sure confidence. Tell yourself this often | today. It is a declaration of release from the belief in idols. It is |
| W1:50.4 | For ten minutes twice | today, morning and evening, let the idea for today sink deep into |
| W1:50.4 | For ten minutes twice today, morning and evening, let the idea for | today sink deep into your consciousness. Repeat it, think about it, |
| W1:R1.1 | Beginning with | today, we will have a series of review periods. Each of them will |
| W1:51.1 | The review for | today covers the following ideas: |
| W1:53.1 | Today we will review the following: | |
| W1:54.1 | These are the review ideas for | today: |
| W1:56.1 | Our review for | today covers the following: |
| W1:57.1 | Today let us review these ideas: | |
| W1:58.1 | These ideas are for review | today: |
| W1:59.1 | The following ideas are for review | today: |
| W1:59.3 | strength. Vision is His gift. Let me not look to my own eyes to see | today. Let me be willing to exchange my pitiful illusion of seeing |
| W1:59.3 | is His gift, and He has given it to me. Let me call upon this gift | today, so that this day may help me to understand eternity. |
| W1:61.4 | You will want to think about this idea as often as possible | today. It is the perfect answer to all illusions and therefore to all |
| W1:61.5 | As many practice periods as possible should be undertaken | today, although each one need not exceed a minute or two. They should |
| W1:61.9 | of a number of giant steps we will take in the next few weeks. Try | today to begin to build a firm foundation for these advances. |
| W1:63.3 | of this function, we will be happy to remember it very often | today. We will begin the day by acknowledging it and close the day |
| W1:64.5 | are really choosing whether to be happy or not. Let us remember this | today. Let us remind ourselves of it in the morning and again at |
| W1:64.6 | Prepare yourself in advance for all the decisions you will make | today by remembering that they are really very simple. Each one will |
| W1:64.7 | Today, then, let us practice with these thoughts: | |
| W1:65.1 | The idea for | today reaffirms your commitment to salvation. It also reminds you |
| W1:65.2 | Today and for a number of days to follow, set aside ten to 15 minutes | |
| W1:65.3 | the same time each day. Try, also, to determine this time | today in advance and then adhere to it as closely as possible. |
| W1:65.5 | For this longer practice period, begin by reviewing the idea for | today. Then close your eyes, repeat the idea to yourself once again, |
| W1:65.6 | no attempt to concentrate only on thoughts related to the idea for | today. Rather, try to uncover each thought that arises which would |
| W1:65.11 | Finally, repeat the idea for | today once more and devote the rest of the practice period to trying |
| W1:66.3 | Today we will try to go past this wholly meaningless battle and | |
| W1:66.4 | Our longer practice period | today has as its purpose your acceptance of the fact that not only is |
| W1:66.11 | Think about this during the longer practice period | today. Think also about the many forms which the illusion of your |
| W1:66.12 | We need great honesty | today. Remember the outcomes fairly and consider also whether it was |
| W1:66.13 | side stand all illusions. All truth stands on the other. Let us try | today to realize that only the truth is true. |
| W1:66.14 | In the shorter practice periods, which would be most helpful | today if undertaken twice an hour, this form of the application is |
| W1:67.2 | We will make every effort | today to reach this truth about you and to realize fully, if only for |
| W1:67.4 | with God as He defines Himself is appropriate for use. We are trying | today to undo your definition of God and replace it with His own. We |
| W1:67.6 | You may find it necessary to repeat the idea for | today from time to time to replace distracting thoughts. You may also |
| W1:67.6 | yourself as Love created you. Be confident that you will do much | today to bring that awareness nearer, whether you feel you have |
| W1:67.7 | It will be particularly helpful | today to practice the idea for today as often as you can. You need to |
| W1:67.7 | It will be particularly helpful today to practice the idea for | today as often as you can. You need to hear the truth about yourself |
| W1:68.5 | grievances go. That, however, is simply a question of motivation. | Today we will try to find out how you would feel without them. If you |
| W1:69.2 | Today let us make another real attempt to reach the light in you. | |
| W1:69.3 | Let us begin our longer practice period | today with the full realization of all this and real determination to |
| W1:69.3 | Learning salvation is our only goal. Let us end the ancient search | today by finding the light in us and holding it up for everyone who |
| W1:69.5 | convinced of their lack of substance. We will make this attempt | today. |
| W1:69.6 | remembering only how much you want to reach the light in you | today—now. Determine to go past the clouds. Reach out and touch |
| W1:69.8 | Have confidence in your Father | today. And be certain that He has heard you and has answered you. You |
| W1:69.13 | if you are tempted to hold anything against anyone | today. |
| W1:70.1 | than some form of the basic temptation not to believe the idea for | today. Salvation seems to come from anywhere except from you. So, |
| W1:70.5 | that healing did not occur; God's purpose was to ensure that it did. | Today we practice realizing that God's Will and ours are really the |
| W1:70.6 | because it makes us unhappy. Therefore, in accepting the idea for | today, we are in agreement with God. He does not want us to be sick. |
| W1:70.7 | We are ready for two longer practice periods | today, each of which should last some ten to 15 minutes. We will, |
| W1:70.8 | Begin these practice periods by repeating the idea for | today, adding a statement signifying your recognition that salvation |
| W1:70.14 | For the short and frequent practice periods | today, remind yourself that your salvation comes from you and nothing |
| W1:71.7 | How can you escape all this? Very simply. The idea for | today is the answer. Only God's plan for salvation will work. There |
| W1:71.8 | Let us practice recognizing this certainty | today. And let us rejoice that there is an answer to what seems to be |
| W1:71.9 | Begin the two longer practice periods for | today by thinking about today's idea, and realizing that it contains |
| W1:71.13 | only His, will work. Be alert to all temptation to hold grievances | today, and respond to them with this form of today's idea: |
| W1:71.15 | Try to remember the idea for | today some six or seven times an hour. There could be no better way |
| W1:72.9 | We will try | today to stop these senseless attacks on salvation. We will try to |
| W1:72.11 | Our goal in the longer practice periods | today is to become aware that God's plan for salvation has already |
| W1:72.18 | or perhaps two shorter practice periods an hour will be enough for | today since they will be somewhat longer than usual. These exercises |
| W1:73.1 | Today we are considering the will you share with God. This is not the | |
| W1:73.4 | Today we will try once more to reach the world that is in accordance | |
| W1:73.7 | your will as well. You want to succeed in what we are trying to do | today. We undertake it with your blessing and your glad accord. |
| W1:73.8 | We will succeed | today if you remember that you will salvation for yourself. You will |
| W1:73.9 | Today it is the ego which stands powerless before your will. Your | |
| W1:73.9 | can prevail against it. Therefore we undertake the exercises for | today in happy confidence, certain that we will find what it is your |
| W1:73.9 | wishes can detain us nor deceive us with an illusion of strength. | Today let your will be done. And end forever the insane belief that |
| W1:73.11 | You will succeed | today, the time appointed for the release of the Son of God from hell |
| W1:74.1 | The idea for | today can be regarded as the central thought toward which all our |
| W1:74.2 | There is great peace in today's idea. And the exercises for | today are directed towards finding it. The idea itself is wholly |
| W1:74.2 | illusions, conflict is impossible. Let us try to recognize this | today and experience the peace this recognition brings. |
| W1:74.12 | yourself slipping off into withdrawal, quickly repeat the idea for | today and try again. Do this as often as necessary. There is definite |
| W1:74.13 | which should be undertaken at regular and predetermined intervals | today, say to yourself: |
| W1:74.14 | There is no will but God's. I seek His peace | today. |
| W1:74.15 | half-hour, with eyes closed if possible, would be well spent on this | today. |
| W1:75.2 | Today we celebrate the happy ending to your long dream of disaster. | |
| W1:75.2 | dream of disaster. There are no dark dreams now. The light has come. | Today the time of light begins for you and everyone. It is a new era |
| W1:75.2 | world is born. The old one has left no trace upon it in its passing. | Today we see a different world because the light has come. |
| W1:75.3 | Our exercises for | today will be happy ones in which we offer thanks for the passing of |
| W1:75.3 | remain to darken our sight and hide the world forgiveness offers us. | Today we will accept the new world as what we want to see. We will be |
| W1:75.4 | to see, and only this. Our single purpose makes our goal inevitable. | Today the real world rises before us in gladness, to be seen at last. |
| W1:75.5 | We do not see the ego's shadow on the world | today. We see the light, and in it we see Heaven's reflection lie |
| W1:75.7 | Dwell not upon the past | today. Keep a completely open mind, washed of all past ideas and |
| W1:75.7 | clean of every concept you have made. You have forgiven the world | today. You can look upon it now as if you never saw it before. You do |
| W1:75.10 | He promised you. From this time forth you will see differently. | Today the light has come. And you will see the world that has been |
| W1:75.11 | of your release. Remind yourself every quarter of an hour or so that | today is a time for special celebration. Give thanks for mercy and |
| W1:75.11 | the darkness of the past upon your eyes, you cannot fail to see | today. And what you see will be so welcome that you will gladly |
| W1:75.11 | And what you see will be so welcome that you will gladly extend | today forever. Say, then: |
| W1:75.15 | you be. Keep it in your awareness of yourself and see it everywhere | today, as we celebrate the beginning of your vision and the sight of |
| W1:76.2 | Today we will be glad you cannot prove it. For if you could, you | |
| W1:76.2 | would forever seek where it is not and never find it. The idea for | today tells you once again how simple is salvation. Look for it where |
| W1:76.7 | The laws of God can never be replaced. We will devote | today to rejoicing that this is so. It is no longer a truth which we |
| W1:76.8 | We will begin the longer practice period | today with a short review of the different kinds of “laws” we have |
| W1:76.10 | There are no laws but God's. Dismiss all foolish magical beliefs | today and hold your mind in silent readiness to hear the Voice that |
| W1:76.12 | Let us | today open God's channels to Him and let His Will extend through us |
| W1:76.14 | We will repeat this dedication as often as possible | today—at least four or five times an hour, as well as in response |
| W1:77.1 | a statement of your true Identity. It is this that we will celebrate | today. |
| W1:77.3 | Today we will claim the miracles which are your right since they | |
| W1:77.3 | can never be lost. We ask no more than what belongs to us in truth. | Today, however, we will also make sure that we will not content |
| W1:77.6 | you accepted must be so. There is no room for doubt and uncertainty | today. We are asking a real question at last. The answer is a simple |
| W1:77.7 | also be devoted to a reminder of a simple fact. Tell yourself often | today: |
| W1:78.2 | Today we go beyond the grievances to look upon the miracle instead. | |
| W1:78.4 | Today we will attempt to see God's Son. We will not let ourselves be | |
| W1:78.6 | role the Holy Spirit has assigned to him. Let him be savior unto you | today. Such is his role in God your Father's plan. |
| W1:78.7 | Our longer practice periods | today will see him in this role. We will attempt to hold him in our |
| W1:78.11 | Him that you might be saved. God thanks you for these quiet times | today in which you laid your images aside and looked upon the miracle |
| W1:79.7 | In our longer practice periods | today, we will ask what the problem is and what is the answer to it. |
| W1:79.8 | Our exercises for | today will be successful to the extent to which we do not insist on |
| W1:79.9 | The shorter practice periods for | today will not be set by time but by need. You will see many problems |
| W1:79.9 | will not be set by time but by need. You will see many problems | today, each one calling for an answer. Our efforts will be directed |
| W1:79.10 | Be not deceived by the form of problems | today. Whenever any difficulty seems to rise, tell yourself quickly: |
| W1:80.2 | only problem has been solved! Repeat this over and over to yourself | today with gratitude and conviction. You have recognized your only |
| W1:80.3 | You are entitled to peace | today. A problem that has been resolved cannot trouble you. Only be |
| W1:80.4 | In our longer practice periods | today, we will claim the peace that must be ours when the problem and |
| W1:80.6 | Assure yourselves often | today that your problems have been solved. Repeat the idea with deep |
| W1:80.6 | possible. And be particularly sure to remember to apply the idea for | today to any specific problem that may arise. Say quickly: |
| W1:80.8 | Let us be determined not to collect grievances | today. Let us be determined to be free of problems that do not exist. |
| W1:81.1 | Our ideas for review | today are: |
| W1:82.1 | We will review these ideas | today: |
| W1:83.1 | Today let us review these ideas: | |
| W1:84.2 | and I cannot die. I am not a body. I would recognize my reality | today. I will worship no idols nor raise my own self-concepts to |
| W1:84.5 | Self thus becomes alien to me. I am determined not to attack my Self | today, so that I can remember who I am. |
| W1:85.5 | [70] My salvation comes from me. | Today I will recognize where my salvation is. It is in me because its |
| W1:86.1 | These ideas are for review | today: |
| W1:87.1 | Our review | today will cover these ideas: |
| W1:87.2 | [73] I will there be light. I will use the power of my will | today. It is not my will to grope about in darkness, fearful of |
| W1:87.2 | and afraid of things unseen and unreal. Light shall be my guide | today. I will follow it where it leads me, and I will look only on |
| W1:87.5 | [74] There is no will but God's. I am safe | today because there is no will but God's. I can become afraid only |
| W1:87.5 | I try to attack can I believe that my eternal safety is threatened. | Today I will recognize that all this has not occurred. I am safe |
| W1:88.1 | Today we will review these ideas: | |
| W1:89.1 | These are our review ideas for | today: |
| W1:90.2 | [79] Let me recognize the problem so it can be solved. Let me realize | today that the problem is always some form of grievance which I would |
| W1:90.2 | is always a miracle with which I let the grievance be replaced. | Today I would remember the simplicity of salvation by reinforcing the |
| W1:91.4 | you but realize how great this strength, your doubts would vanish. | Today we will devote ourselves to the attempt to let you feel this |
| W1:91.5 | Three times | today, set aside about ten minutes for a quiet time in which you try |
| W1:91.8 | question with which this statement ends is needed for our exercises | today. What you think you are is a belief to be undone. But what you |
| W1:92.1 | The idea for | today is an extension of the previous one. You do not think of light |
| W1:92.9 | ready to embrace you as Its own. Such is the meeting place we try | today to find and rest in, for the peace of God is where your Self, |
| W1:92.10 | Let us give 20 minutes twice | today to join this meeting. Let yourself be brought unto your Self. |
| W1:92.10 | the gift of sight is given you. Leave, then, the dark a little while | today, and we will practice seeing in the light, closing the body's |
| W1:92.11 | in hope and trust. Let us repeat as often as we can the idea for | today and recognize that we are being introduced to sight and led |
| W1:93.3 | Today we question this, not from the point of view of what you think, | |
| W1:93.8 | In our longer exercise periods | today, which would be most profitable if done for the first five |
| W1:93.17 | You can do much for the world's salvation | today. You can do much today to bring you closer to accepting the |
| W1:93.17 | You can do much for the world's salvation today. You can do much | today to bring you closer to accepting the part in salvation which |
| W1:93.17 | part in salvation which God has assigned to you. And you can do much | today to bring the conviction to your mind that the idea for the day |
| W1:94.1 | Today we continue with the one idea which brings complete salvation; | |
| W1:94.3 | Today we will again devote the first five minutes of each waking hour | |
| W1:94.9 | Tell yourself frequently | today that you are as God created you. And be sure to respond to |
| W1:94.11 | Make every effort to do the hourly exercises | today. Each one you do will be a giant stride toward your release and |
| W1:95.3 | We will attempt | today to be aware of only what can hear and see and what makes |
| W1:95.3 | is united with its Creator. In patience and in hope we try again | today. |
| W1:95.12 | This is the truth, and nothing else is true. | Today we will affirm this truth again and try to reach the place in |
| W1:95.12 | there is no doubt that only this is true. Begin the practice periods | today with this assurance, given to your mind with all the certainty |
| W1:95.19 | Do not forget | today. We need your help, your little part in bringing happiness to |
| W1:95.19 | the world. And Heaven looks to you in confidence that you will try | today. Share, then, its surety, for it is yours. Be vigilant. Do not |
| W1:95.19 | Share, then, its surety, for it is yours. Be vigilant. Do not forget | today. |
| W1:95.20 | a call to all the world to be at one with you. To everyone you meet | today be sure to give the promise of today's idea and tell him this: |
| W1:96.9 | We will attempt | today to find this thought, whose presence in your mind is guaranteed |
| W1:96.16 | Your Self knows that you cannot fail | today. Perhaps your mind remains uncertain yet a little while. Be not |
| W1:96.17 | Each time | today you tell your frantic mind salvation comes from your One Self, |
| W1:97.1 | factors into unity. It simply states the truth. Practice this truth | today as often as you can, for it will bring your mind from conflict |
| W1:97.3 | Today we try to bring reality still closer to your mind. Each time | |
| W1:97.5 | Give Him the minutes which He needs | today to help you understand with Him you are the Spirit that abides |
| W1:97.11 | Offer each practice period | today gladly to Him. And He will speak to you, reminding you that you |
| W1:97.11 | for His assurance every time you speak the words He offers you | today, and let Him tell your mind that they are true. |
| W1:97.12 | belief that you are something else. The Holy Spirit gives you peace | today. Receive His words, and offer them to Him. |
| W1:98.1 | Today is a day of special dedication. We take a stand on but one side | |
| W1:98.1 | Today is a day of special dedication. We take a stand on but one side | today. We side with truth and let illusions go. We will not vacillate |
| W1:98.1 | take a firm position with the one. We dedicate ourselves to truth | today and to salvation as God planned it be. We will not argue it is |
| W1:98.2 | How happy to be certain! All our doubts we lay aside | today and take our stand with certainty of purpose and with thanks |
| W1:98.3 | the perfect time and place. They took the stand which we will take | today that we may share their certainty and thus increase it by |
| W1:98.4 | They will be with us—all who took the stand we take | today will gladly offer us all that they learned and every gain they |
| W1:98.4 | come to make their choice again. We do not choose but for ourselves | today. |
| W1:98.7 | Each hour | today give Him your tiny gift of but five minutes. He will give the |
| W1:98.8 | say, and you will go beyond their sound to what they really mean. | Today you practice with Him as you say: |
| W1:98.10 | the glad receiver of His gifts, that you may give them to the world | today. |
| W1:99.9 | who will yet work miracles, be sure you practice well the idea for | today. Try to perceive the strength in what you say, for these are |
| W1:99.11 | Practice His thought | today, and let His Light seek out and lighten up all darkened spots |
| W1:99.12 | Think of these things in practicing | today, and start your longer practice periods with this instruction |
| W1:99.16 | You have a special message for | today which has the power to remove all forms of doubt and fear |
| W1:100.5 | We will not let ourselves be sad | today. For if we do, we fail to take the part that is essential to |
| W1:100.6 | Today we will attempt to understand joy is our function here. If you | |
| W1:100.7 | You are God's messenger | today. You bring His happiness to all you look upon, His peace to |
| W1:100.7 | His message in your happy face. We will prepare ourselves for this | today in our five minute practice periods by feeling happiness arise |
| W1:100.10 | will be there. You are essential to His plan. You are His messenger | today. And you must find what He would have you give. |
| W1:100.11 | Do not forget the idea for | today between your longer practice periods. It is your Self Who calls |
| W1:100.11 | your longer practice periods. It is your Self Who calls to you | today. And it is Him you answer every time you tell yourself you are |
| W1:101.1 | Today we will continue with the theme of happiness. This is a key | |
| W1:101.5 | You need the practice periods | today. The exercises teach sin is not real, and all that you believe |
| W1:101.6 | There is no sin. We practice with this thought as often as we can | today because it is the basis for today's idea. God's Will for you is |
| W1:101.10 | Today escape from madness. You are set on freedom's road, and now | |
| W1:101.10 | faster to the waiting goal of peace. There is no sin. Remember this | today, and tell yourself as often as you can: |
| W1:102.2 | Today we try to loose its weakened hold still further. And to realize | |
| W1:102.2 | existence like itself. You have been slave to nothing. Be you free | today to join the happy Will of God. |
| W1:102.4 | Begin the longer practice periods | today with this acceptance of God's Will for you: |
| W1:102.7 | as Himself. Besides these hourly five minute rests, pause frequently | today to tell yourself that you have now accepted happiness as your |
| W1:103.3 | This basic error we will try again to bring to truth | today and teach ourselves: |
| W1:103.5 | Begin your periods of practicing | today with this association, which corrects the false belief that God |
| W1:103.6 | this one correction to be placed within your mind each waking hour | today. Then welcome all the happiness it brings, as truth replaces |
| W1:103.7 | God, being Love, is also happiness. And it is happiness I seek | today. I cannot fail because I seek the truth. |
| W1:104.2 | Today we would remove all meaningless and self-made gifts which we | |
| W1:104.3 | are timeless. And we need not wait to have them. They belong to us | today. Therefore we will to have them now and know in choosing them |
| W1:104.4 | Our longer practice periods | today, the hourly five minutes given truth for your salvation, should |
| W1:104.7 | we come to find what has been given us by Him. We come in confidence | today, aware that what belongs to us in truth is what He gives. And |
| W1:104.8 | So do we clear the way for Him | today by simply recognizing that His Will is done already and that |
| W1:105.1 | God's peace and joy are yours. | Today we will accept them, knowing they belong to us. And we will try |
| W1:105.6 | Today accept God's peace and joy as yours. Let Him complete Himself | |
| W1:105.6 | through loss. No more can you. Receive His gift of joy and peace | today, and He will thank you for your gift to Him. |
| W1:105.7 | Today our practice periods will start a little differently. Begin | |
| W1:105.7 | Today our practice periods will start a little differently. Begin | today by thinking of those brothers who have been denied by you the |
| W1:105.9 | to you and let your mind be free of all that would prevent success | today. Now are you ready to accept the gift of peace and joy which |
| W1:105.10 | You must succeed | today if you prepare your mind as we suggest, for you have let all |
| W1:105.11 | Spend your five minutes thus with Him each time you can | today, but do not think that less is worthless when you cannot give |
| W1:105.12 | Determine not to interfere | today with what He wills. And if a brother seems to tempt you to deny |
| W1:106.2 | and shows the way to peace to those who cannot see. Be still | today and listen to the truth. Be not deceived by voices of the dead |
| W1:106.3 | Be not afraid | today to circumvent the voices of the world; walk lightly past their |
| W1:106.3 | lightly past their meaningless persuasion. Hear them not. Be still | today, and listen to the truth. Go past all things which do not speak |
| W1:106.3 | His hand, held out to you in welcome and in love. Hear only Him | today, and do not wait to reach Him longer. Hear one Voice today. |
| W1:106.3 | only Him today, and do not wait to reach Him longer. Hear one Voice | today. |
| W1:106.4 | Today the promise of God's Word is kept. Hear and be silent. He would | |
| W1:106.5 | Prepare yourself for miracles | today. Today allow your Father's ancient pledge to you and all your |
| W1:106.5 | Prepare yourself for miracles today. | Today allow your Father's ancient pledge to you and all your brothers |
| W1:106.5 | ancient pledge to you and all your brothers to be kept. Hear Him | today, and listen to the Word which lifts the veil which lies upon |
| W1:106.6 | Hear Him | today, and offer Him your voice to speak to all the multitudes who |
| W1:106.6 | to all the multitudes who wait to hear the Word that He will speak | today. Be ready for salvation. It is here and will today be given |
| W1:106.6 | He will speak today. Be ready for salvation. It is here and will | today be given unto you. And you will learn your function from the |
| W1:106.7 | Listen | today, and you will hear a Voice Which will resound throughout the |
| W1:106.8 | Today we practice giving, not the way you understand it now, but as | |
| W1:106.11 | Be still and listen to the truth | today. For each five minutes spent in listening, a thousand minds are |
| W1:106.12 | Today the holy Word of God is kept through your receiving it to give | |
| W1:106.12 | what giving means by listening and learning it of Him. Do not forget | today to reinforce your choice to hear and to receive the Word by |
| W1:106.12 | the Word by this reminder, given to yourself as often as is possible | today: |
| W1:106.13 | Let me be still and listen to the truth. I am the messenger of God | today. My voice is His, to give what I receive. |
| W1:107.8 | Today belongs to truth. Give truth its due, and it will give you | |
| W1:107.9 | Today we practice on the happy note of certainty that has been born | |
| W1:107.9 | The shaky and unsteady footsteps of illusion is not our approach | today. We are as certain of success as we are sure we live and hope |
| W1:107.9 | and hope and breathe and think. We do not doubt we walk with truth | today and count on it to enter into all the exercises that we do this |
| W1:107.11 | mind which tell you you could be apart from Him. You speak to Him | today and make your pledge to let His function be fulfilled through |
| W1:107.15 | Do not forget your function for | today. Each time you tell yourself with confidence, “Truth will |
| W1:108.7 | Today we practice with the special case of giving and receiving. We | |
| W1:108.7 | because it has results we cannot miss. To give is to receive. | Today we will attempt to offer peace to everyone and see how quickly |
| W1:108.8 | So we begin the practice periods with the instruction for | today and say: |
| W1:108.13 | Our very simple lesson for | today will teach you much. Effect and cause will be far better |
| W1:108.13 | we will make much faster progress now. Think of the exercises for | today as quick advances in your learning, made still faster and more |
| W1:109.1 | We ask for rest | today and quietness unshaken by the world's appearances. We ask for |
| W1:109.6 | You rest | today. And as you close your eyes, sink into stillness. Let these |
| W1:109.6 | No more fearful dreams will come now that you rest in God. Take time | today to slip away from dreams and into peace. |
| W1:109.7 | Each hour that you take your rest | today, a tired mind is suddenly made glad, a bird with broken wings |
| W1:109.8 | With each five minutes that you rest | today the world is nearer waking. And the time when rest will be the |
| W1:109.9 | You rest within the peace of God | today and call upon your brothers from your rest, to draw them to |
| W1:109.9 | to their rest along with you. You will be faithful to your trust | today, forgetting no one, bringing everyone into the boundless circle |
| W1:109.10 | all enter here and rest with you. You rest within the peace of God | today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes to take his rest and |
| W1:109.11 | together here, for thus our rest is made complete, and what we give | today we have received already. Time is not the guardian of what we |
| W1:109.11 | we have received already. Time is not the guardian of what we give | today. We give to those unborn and those passed by, to every Thought |
| W1:110.9 | You are as God created you. | Today honor your Self. Let graven images you made to be the Son of |
| W1:110.9 | you made to be the Son of God instead of what He is be worshiped not | today. Deep in your mind the holy Christ in you is waiting your |
| W1:110.10 | Seek Him | today, and find Him. He will be your savior from all idols you have |
| W1:110.10 | are your idols and how false the images which you believed were you. | Today we make a great advance to truth by letting idols go and |
| W1:110.10 | letting idols go and opening our hands and hearts and minds to God | today. |
| W1:110.11 | with thankful hearts and loving thoughts for all who meet with us | today, for it is thus that we remember Him. And we will say, that we |
| W1:R3.1 | Our third review begins | today. We will review two of the last 20 ideas each day until we have |
| W1:118.2 | [105] God's peace and joy are mine. | Today I will accept God's peace and joy in glad exchange for all the |
| W1:119.3 | To give and to receive are one in truth. I will forgive all things | today, that I may learn how to accept the truth in me and come to |
| W1:120.2 | [109] I rest in God. I rest in God | today and let Him work in me and through me, while I rest in Him in |
| W1:120.3 | [110] I am as God created me. I am God's Son. | Today I lay aside all sick illusions of myself and let my Father tell |
| W1:121.8 | of you, but of the Teacher Who was given you to show the way to you. | Today we practice learning to forgive. If you are willing, you can |
| W1:121.8 | we practice learning to forgive. If you are willing, you can learn | today to take the key to happiness and use it on your own behalf. We |
| W1:121.9 | that giving and receiving are the same. Yet we will try to learn | today that they are one through practicing forgiving toward one whom |
| W1:122.6 | is no plan but this for the salvation of the Son of God. Let us | today rejoice that this is so, for here we have an answer, clear and |
| W1:122.7 | what God has given as its own. God wills salvation be received | today and that the intricacies of your dreams no longer hide their |
| W1:122.8 | Open your eyes | today, and look upon a happy world of safety and of peace. |
| W1:122.9 | Remembering the gifts forgiveness gives, we undertake our practicing | today with hope and faith that this will be the day salvation will be |
| W1:122.9 | day salvation will be ours. Earnestly and gladly will we seek for it | today, aware we hold the key within our hands, accepting Heaven's |
| W1:122.11 | questions answered, and what your acceptance of the answer brings. | Today it will be given you to feel the peace forgiveness offers and |
| W1:122.12 | Before the light you will receive | today the world will fade until it disappears, and you will see |
| W1:122.12 | have been held in store for us since time began, kept waiting for | today. Forgiveness offers everything you want. Today all things you |
| W1:122.12 | kept waiting for today. Forgiveness offers everything you want. | Today all things you want are given you. |
| W1:122.15 | Forgiveness offers everything I want. | Today I have accepted this as true. Today I have received the gifts |
| W1:122.15 | offers everything I want. Today I have accepted this as true. | Today I have received the gifts of God. |
| W1:123.1 | Today let us be thankful. We have come to gentler pathways and to | |
| W1:123.2 | the gains which you have made; the gifts you have received. Be glad | today in loving thankfulness your Father has not left you to |
| W1:123.2 | you made to take the place of Him and His creation. Give Him thanks | today. |
| W1:123.4 | Today in gratitude we lift our hearts above despair and raise our | |
| W1:123.4 | looking downward to the dust. We sing the song of thankfulness | today in honor of the Self Which God has willed to be our true |
| W1:123.4 | of the Self Which God has willed to be our true Identity in Him. | Today we smile on everyone we see and walk with lightened footsteps |
| W1:123.6 | Receive the thanks of God | today, as you give thanks to Him. For He would offer you the thanks |
| W1:123.7 | Receive His thanks and offer yours to Him for 15 minutes twice | today. And you will realize to Whom you offer thanks, and Whom He |
| W1:124.1 | Today we will again give thanks for our Identity in God. Our home is | |
| W1:124.3 | we were created, smiles on us and offers us the happiness we gave. | Today we will not doubt His Love for us nor question His protection |
| W1:124.4 | our faith and our awareness of His Presence. We are one with Him | today in recognition and remembrance. We feel Him in our hearts. Our |
| W1:124.4 | His thoughts; our eyes behold His loveliness in all we look upon. | Today we see only the loving and the lovable. |
| W1:124.7 | and we now would give, for we would keep the gifts our Father gave. | Today we would experience ourselves at one with Him, so that the |
| W1:124.8 | Peace be to you | today. Secure your peace by practicing awareness you are one with |
| W1:124.8 | awareness you are one with your Creator, as He is with you. Sometime | today, whenever it seems best, devote a half an hour to the thought |
| W1:124.8 | your meditation. We will trust God's Voice to speak as He sees fit | today, certain He will not fail. Abide with Him this half an hour. He |
| W1:124.9 | that nothing happens. You may not be ready to accept the gain | today. Yet sometime, somewhere, it will come to you, nor will you |
| W1:124.10 | Perhaps | today, perhaps tomorrow, you will see your own transfiguration in the |
| W1:124.11 | Perhaps | today, perhaps tomorrow, you will look into this glass and understand |
| W1:124.11 | for the body's eyes to see, and yet you can be sure someday, perhaps | today, perhaps tomorrow, you will understand and comprehend and see. |
| W1:124.12 | further jewels to the golden frame that holds the mirror offered you | today by hourly repeating to yourself: |
| W1:125.1 | and of quiet listening. Your Father wills you hear His Word | today. He calls to you from deep within your mind where He abides. |
| W1:125.1 | He calls to you from deep within your mind where He abides. Hear Him | today. No peace is possible until His Word is heard around the world; |
| W1:125.3 | In stillness we will hear God's Voice | today without intrusion of our petty thoughts, without our personal |
| W1:125.3 | without all judgment of His holy Word. We will not judge ourselves | today, for what we are cannot be judged. We stand apart from all the |
| W1:125.3 | which the world has laid upon the Son of God. It knows him not. | Today we will not listen to the world, but wait in silence for the |
| W1:125.4 | salvation and the holy time of peace. We gather at the throne of God | today, the quiet place within the mind where He abides forever in the |
| W1:125.6 | Today He speaks to you. His Voice awaits your silence, for His Word | |
| W1:125.6 | Await His Word in quiet. There is peace within you to be called upon | today to help make ready your most holy mind to hear the Voice of its |
| W1:125.7 | Three times | today, at times most suitable for silence, give ten minutes set apart |
| W1:125.8 | the single Mind of Father and of Son. In quiet listen to your Self | today, and let Him tell you God has never left His Son, and you have |
| W1:125.9 | Only be quiet. You will need no rule but this to let your practicing | today lift you above the thinking of the world and free your vision |
| W1:125.10 | As every hour passes by | today, be still a moment and remind yourself you have a special |
| W1:126.8 | Today we try to understand the truth that giver and receiver are the | |
| W1:126.8 | are accustomed. But the Help you need is there. Give Him your faith | today and ask Him that He share your practicing in truth today. And |
| W1:126.8 | your faith today and ask Him that He share your practicing in truth | today. And if you only catch a tiny glimpse of the release which lies |
| W1:126.8 | a tiny glimpse of the release which lies in the idea we practice for | today, this is a day of glory for the world. |
| W1:126.9 | Give 15 minutes twice | today to the attempt to understand today's idea. It is the thought by |
| W1:126.11 | As often as you can, remind yourself you have a goal | today—an aim which makes this day of special value to yourself and |
| W1:127.6 | Today we practice making free our minds of all the laws you think you | |
| W1:127.6 | live, and all the changes which you think are part of human destiny. | Today we take the largest single step this course requests in your |
| W1:127.6 | goal. If you achieve the faintest glimmering of what love means | today, you have advanced in distance without measure and in time |
| W1:127.7 | Let us together, then, be glad to give some time to God | today and understand there is no better use for time than this. For |
| W1:127.7 | there is no better use for time than this. For 15 minutes twice | today escape from every law in which you now believe. Open your mind |
| W1:127.8 | and what love means. He will shine through your idle thoughts | today and help you understand the truth of love. In loving |
| W1:127.9 | Today the legion of the future years of waiting for salvation | |
| W1:127.9 | before the timelessness of what you learn. Let us give thanks | today that we are spared a future like the past. Today we leave the |
| W1:127.9 | Let us give thanks today that we are spared a future like the past. | Today we leave the past behind us, never more to be remembered. And |
| W1:128.3 | Escape | today the chains you place upon your mind when you perceive salvation |
| W1:128.5 | Today we practice letting go all thought of values we have given to | |
| W1:128.7 | Give it ten minutes rest three times | today. And when your eyes are opened afterwards, you will not value |
| W1:129.6 | but what you choose instead you want indeed! Let it be given you | today. It waits but for your choosing it to take the place of all the |
| W1:129.10 | Today the lights of Heaven bend to you, to shine upon your eyelids as | |
| W1:129.10 | can see it plainly and can understand. A day of grace is given you | today, and we give thanks. This day we realize that what you feared |
| W1:130.5 | Today we will not seek for them nor waste this day in seeking not | |
| W1:130.6 | Today we will attempt no compromise where none is possible. The world | |
| W1:130.6 | made a choice as all-embracing as its opposite. What we would learn | today is more than just the lesson that you cannot see two worlds. It |
| W1:130.7 | Six times | today in thanks and gratitude we gladly give five minutes to the |
| W1:130.11 | Dismiss temptation easily | today whenever it arises merely by remembering the limits on your |
| W1:131.7 | Why wait for Heaven? It is here | today. Time is the great illusion; it is past or in the future. Yet |
| W1:131.10 | Today we will not choose a paradox in place of truth. How could the | |
| W1:131.10 | the place he cannot find. Leave foolish thoughts like these behind | today, and turn your mind to true ideas instead. |
| W1:131.11 | fail who asks to reach the truth, and it is truth we ask to reach | today. We will devote ten minutes to this goal three times today, and |
| W1:131.11 | to reach today. We will devote ten minutes to this goal three times | today, and we will ask to see the rising of the real world to replace |
| W1:131.15 | fail who asks to reach the truth, and it is this request you make | today. Nothing but this has any meaning now; no other goal is valued |
| W1:131.17 | You cannot fail | today. There walks with you the Spirit Heaven sent you that you might |
| W1:131.17 | some day and through His aid slip effortlessly past it to the light. | Today that day has come. Today God keeps His ancient promise to His |
| W1:131.17 | aid slip effortlessly past it to the light. Today that day has come. | Today God keeps His ancient promise to His holy Son, as does His Son |
| W1:131.18 | Remember often that | today should be a time of special gladness, and refrain from dismal |
| W1:131.18 | dismal thoughts and meaningless laments. Salvation's time has come. | Today is set by Heaven Itself to be a time of grace for you and for |
| W1:131.19 | Today I seek and find all that I want. My single purpose offers it to | |
| W1:132.6 | and must be borne in mind if you would understand the lesson for | today. It is not pride which tells you that you made the world you |
| W1:132.8 | And some will find it in this course and in the exercises that we do | today. |
| W1:132.11 | What is the lesson for | today except another way of saying that to know your Self is the |
| W1:132.15 | Today our purpose is to free the world from all the idle thoughts we | |
| W1:132.16 | Begin the 15 minute periods in which we practice twice | today with this: |
| W1:133.1 | learned, to bring him back to practical concerns. This we will do | today. We will not speak of lofty, world-encompassing ideas but dwell |
| W1:133.3 | There are no satisfactions in the world. | Today we list the real criteria by which to test all things you think |
| W1:133.14 | and claim it as their own. We will attempt to reach this state | today, with self-deception laid aside and with an honest willingness |
| W1:134.14 | Today we practice true forgiveness that the time of joining be no | |
| W1:134.15 | That this may be accomplished, let us give a quarter of an hour twice | today and spend it with the Guide Who understands the meaning of |
| W1:135.22 | We will anticipate that time | today with present confidence, for this is part of what was planned |
| W1:135.22 | that everything we need is given us for our accomplishment of this | today. We make no plans for how it will be done but realize that our |
| W1:135.23 | For 15 minutes twice | today, we rest from senseless planning and from every thought which |
| W1:135.23 | from every thought which blocks the truth from entering our minds. | Today we will receive instead of plan, that we may give instead of |
| W1:135.26 | your defenses have been aimed at not receiving what you will receive | today. And in the light and joy of simple truth, you will but wonder |
| W1:135.26 | demands for sacrifice. You give up nothing in these times | today when undefended you present yourself to your Creator as you |
| W1:135.27 | He has remembered you. | Today we will remember Him. For this is Eastertime in your salvation. |
| W1:135.28 | of all the happiness that comes to you without your planning. Learn | today. And all the world will take this giant stride and celebrate |
| W1:136.15 | its arms and cease to play with folly. It is found at any time— | today, if you will choose to practice giving welcome to the truth. |
| W1:136.15 | will choose to practice giving welcome to the truth. This is our aim | today. And we will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth |
| W1:136.16 | from us. It merely waits for just this invitation which we give | today. We introduce it with a healing prayer to help us rise above |
| W1:136.17 | will accept the truth of what I am and let my mind be wholly healed | today. |
| W1:137.12 | choice is but to ask what cannot be to be, and this cannot succeed. | Today we ask that only truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of |
| W1:137.14 | and give ten minutes to these thoughts with which we will conclude | today at night as well: |
| W1:138.7 | So we begin | today considering the choice that time was made to help us make. Such |
| W1:138.10 | to make a choice like this? And shall we hesitate to choose | today? |
| W1:139.9 | of God's Son is unassailed by his belief he knows not what he is. | Today accept Atonement, not to change reality, but merely to accept |
| W1:139.9 | is but this that we are asked to do. It is but this that we will do | today. |
| W1:139.10 | at night we will devote to dedicate our minds to our assignment for | today. We start with this review of what our mission is: |
| W1:139.13 | with all aspects of creation, we repeat our dedication to our cause | today each hour, as we lay aside all thoughts that would distract us |
| W1:140.7 | Let us not try | today to seek to cure what cannot suffer sickness. Healing must be |
| W1:140.8 | Today we seek to change our minds about the source of sickness, for | |
| W1:140.8 | a cure for all illusions, not another shift among them. We will try | today to find the source of healing, which is in our minds because |
| W1:140.9 | We will not be misled | today by what appears to us as sick. We go beyond appearances today |
| W1:140.9 | misled today by what appears to us as sick. We go beyond appearances | today and reach the source of healing from which nothing is exempt. |
| W1:140.10 | restoring saneness to the Son of God. No voice but this can cure. | Today we hear a single Voice which speaks to us of truth where all |
| W1:140.11 | we can hear our Father speak to us. We hear Him now. We come to Him | today. |
| W1:140.14 | our minds nor offer proof to us that it is real. This will we learn | today. And we will say our prayer for healing hourly and take a |
| W1:R4.1 | for the second part of learning how the truth can be applied. | Today we will begin to concentrate on readiness for what will follow |
| W1:143.1 | [125] In quiet I receive God's Word | today. |
| W1:151.13 | We practice wordlessly | today, except at the beginning of the time you spend with God. We |
| W1:152.8 | Let us | today be truly humble and accept what we have made as what it is. The |
| W1:152.9 | Today we practice true humility, abandoning the false pretense by | |
| W1:153.8 | We will not play such childish games | today. For our true purpose is to save the world, and we would not |
| W1:153.9 | We look past dreams | today and recognize that we need no defense because we are created |
| W1:153.15 | Today we practice in a form we will maintain for quite a while. We | |
| W1:153.19 | Today our theme is our defenselessness. We clothe ourselves in it as | |
| W1:154.1 | Let us | today be neither arrogant nor falsely humble. We have gone beyond |
| W1:154.10 | It is this joining that we undertake to recognize | today. We will not seek to keep our minds apart from Him Who speaks |
| W1:154.12 | Let us but learn this lesson for | today: we will not recognize what we receive until we give it. You |
| W1:154.13 | Our lesson for | today is stated thus: |
| W1:154.15 | realize these holy words are true. They are the message sent to us | today from our Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed our |
| W1:155.3 | This is the simple choice we make | today. The mad illusion will remain awhile in evidence for those to |
| W1:155.14 | His own, which are the same, we practice gladly with this thought | today: |
| W1:156.8 | a day, till certainty has ended doubting and established peace. | Today let doubting cease. God speaks for you in answering your |
| W1:157.1 | awareness. You have spent long days and nights in celebrating death. | Today you learn to feel the joy of life. |
| W1:157.3 | Today it will be given you to feel a touch of Heaven, though you will | |
| W1:157.4 | He will direct your practicing | today, for what you ask for now is what He wills. And having joined |
| W1:157.5 | and everyone you think of, or who thinks of you. For your experience | today will so transform your mind that it becomes the touchstone for |
| W1:157.6 | Your body will be sanctified | today, its only purpose being now to bring the vision of what you |
| W1:157.8 | have no need of it. Yet now it has a purpose and will serve it well. | Today we will embark upon a course you have not dreamed of. But the |
| W1:157.8 | given you has dreamed for you this journey which you make and start | today with the experience this day holds out to you to be your own. |
| W1:158.2 | All this cannot be learned. What, then, are you to learn to give | today? Our lesson yesterday evoked a theme found early in the text. |
| W1:158.8 | not merely disappear when this has been perceived. And this you give | today—see no one as a body. Greet him as the Son of God he is, |
| W1:158.10 | your sins have been forgiven by yourself. Each brother whom you meet | today provides another chance to let Christ's vision shine on you and |
| W1:158.11 | with its immortal love. We practice seeing with the eyes of Christ | today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ's vision looks upon |
| W1:160.9 | Today we offer thanks that Christ has come to search the world for | |
| W1:161.1 | Today we practice differently and take a stand against our anger, | |
| W1:161.11 | Today we practice in a form we have attempted earlier. Your readiness | |
| W1:161.11 | attempted earlier. Your readiness is closer now, and you will come | today nearer Christ's vision. If you are intent on reaching it, you |
| W1:161.11 | Christ's vision. If you are intent on reaching it, you will succeed | today. And once you have succeeded, you will not be willing to accept |
| W1:162.4 | Today we practice simply. For the words we use are mighty, and they | |
| W1:162.5 | We honor you | today. Yours is the right to perfect holiness you now accept. With |
| W1:162.6 | words dispel the night, and darkness is no more. The light is come | today to bless the world, for you have recognized the Son of God, and |
| W1:163.8 | they would be instantly released. And you will show them this | today. There is no death, and we renounce it now in every form for |
| W1:163.8 | form it takes must therefore be illusion. This the stand we take | today. And it is given us to look past death and see the life beyond. |
| W1:163.9 | Our Father, bless our eyes | today. We are Your messengers, and we would look upon the glorious |
| W1:164.1 | truth be recognized? The present is the only time there is. And so | today, this instant, now, we come to look upon what is forever there |
| W1:164.3 | How holy is your practicing | today, as Christ gives you His sight and hears for you and answers in |
| W1:164.3 | which come from nearer than the world are clear to you who will | today accept the gifts He gives. |
| W1:164.4 | of holiness in you the thought of sin has never touched. All this | today you will remember. Faithfulness in practicing today will bring |
| W1:164.4 | All this today you will remember. Faithfulness in practicing | today will bring rewards so great and so completely different from |
| W1:164.7 | We will not judge | today. We will receive but what is given us from judgment made beyond |
| W1:164.7 | what is given us from judgment made beyond the world. Our practicing | today becomes our gift of thankfulness for our release from blindness |
| W1:164.9 | worthy to be sought above the world's unsatisfying goals? Let not | today slip by without the gifts it holds for you receiving your |
| W1:165.4 | Deny not Heaven. It is yours | today but for the asking. Nor need you perceive how great the gift, |
| W1:165.7 | Practice | today in hope. For hope indeed is justified. Your doubts are |
| W1:167.10 | Let us | today be children of the truth and not deny our holy heritage. Our |
| W1:167.10 | an opposite to what he is? We will not ask for death in any form | today. Nor will we let imagined opposites to life abide even an |
| W1:167.11 | His holy home we strive to keep | today, as He established it and wills it be forever and forever. He |
| W1:167.11 | it and wills it be forever and forever. He is Lord of what we think | today. And in His thoughts, which have no opposite, we understand |
| W1:168.3 | Today we ask of God the gift He has most carefully preserved within | |
| W1:168.5 | It is a new and holy day | today, for we receive what has been given us. Our faith lies in the |
| W1:168.6 | receive. Such is His Will because He loves His Son. To Him we pray | today, returning but the words He gave to us through His Own Voice, |
| W1:169.14 | Our learning goal | today does not exceed this prayer, yet in the world, what could be |
| W1:170.2 | it grow and swell and rage. And thus is fear protected, not escaped. | Today we learn a lesson which can save you more delay and needless |
| W1:170.8 | Today we look upon this cruel god dispassionately. And we note that | |
| W1:170.12 | The choice you make | today is certain. For you look for the last time upon this bit of |
| W1:174.3 | [158] | Today I learn to give as I receive. God is but Love, and therefore so |
| W1:181.3 | Therefore in practicing | today, we first let all such little focuses give way to our great |
| W1:181.10 | We seek for this remembrance as we turn our minds to practicing | today. We look neither ahead nor backwards. We look straight into the |
| W1:182.3 | We speak | today for everyone who walks this world, for he is not at home. He |
| W1:182.9 | Rest with Him frequently | today. For He was willing to become a little child that you might |
| W1:182.10 | is protected by defenselessness. Go home with Him from time to time | today. You are as much an alien here as He. |
| W1:182.11 | Take time | today to lay aside your shield which profits nothing and lay down the |
| W1:182.12 | be denied. The holy Child remains with you. His home is yours. | Today He gives you His defenselessness, and you accept it in exchange |
| W1:183.6 | altar which reaches to God Himself and to His Son. Practice but this | today; repeat God's Name slowly again and still again. Become |
| W1:183.10 | Today you can achieve a state in which you will experience the gifts | |
| W1:183.10 | the world forgot and offer it your own remembering. You can accept | today the part you play in its salvation and your own as well, and |
| W1:183.12 | peace eternal. In our Father's Name, we would experience this peace | today. And in His Name it shall be given us. |
| W1:185.7 | Let us | today devote our practicing to recognizing that we really mean the |
| W1:185.8 | Today devote your practice periods to careful searching of your mind | |
| W1:185.14 | It is this one intent we seek | today, uniting our desires with the need of every heart, the call of |
| W1:185.14 | as God created it. With help like this beside us, can we fail | today as we request the peace of God be given us? |
| W1:186.3 | humility request but this? And what could arrogance deny but this? | Today we will not shrink from our assignment on the specious grounds |
| W1:186.4 | All false humility we lay aside | today that we may listen to God's Voice reveal to us what He would |
| W1:188.8 | We practice coming nearer to the light in us | today. We take our wandering thoughts and gently bring them back to |
| W1:189.6 | Today we pass illusions as we seek to reach to what is true in us and | |
| W1:189.6 | Its sight which is the gift Its Love bestows on us. We learn the way | today. It is as sure as Love Itself, to Which it carries us. For its |
| W1:189.9 | And so | today we do not choose the way in which we go to Him. But we do |
| W1:191.7 | Be glad | today how very easily is hell undone. You need but tell yourself: |
| W1:191.12 | And we will sleep no more and dream of death. Then join with me | today. Your glory is the light that saves the world. Do not withhold |
| W1:192.10 | Be merciful | today. The Son of God deserves your mercy. It is he who asks that you |
| W1:193.14 | We will attempt | today to overcome a thousand seeming obstacles to peace in just one |
| W1:193.14 | another minute, or another instant. Time was made for this. Use it | today for what its purpose is. Morning and night, devote what time |
| W1:193.16 | Each hour spend a little time | today, and in the days to come, in practicing the lesson in |
| W1:194.6 | If you can see the lesson for | today as the deliverance it really is, you will not hesitate to give |
| W1:195.9 | Today we learn to think of gratitude in place of anger, malice, and | |
| W1:196.2 | in its sure protection, can be found in the idea we practice for | today. It may in fact appear to be a sign that punishment can never |
| W1:196.4 | from bondage to the state of perfect freedom. Let us take this step | today that we may quickly go the way salvation shows us, taking every |
| W1:196.8 | Our next steps will be easy if you take this one | today. From there we go ahead quite rapidly. For once you understand |
| W1:196.9 | Salvation's song can certainly be heard in the idea we practice for | today. If it can but be you you crucify, you did not hurt the world |
| W1:196.11 | Him Father and yourself His Son. Pray that the instant may be soon— | today. Step back from fear and make advance to love. |
| W1:198.9 | Today we practice letting freedom come to make its home with you. The | |
| W1:198.11 | Do not forget | today that there can be no form of suffering that fails to hide an |
| W1:198.12 | is the gift the Holy Spirit holds for you from God your Father. Let | today be celebrated both on earth and in your holy home as well. Be |
| W1:198.15 | Today we come still nearer to the end of everything that yet would | |
| W1:198.15 | For He would give to us the gift that God has given us through Him | today. Now is it time for your deliverance. The time has come. The |
| W1:198.15 | it time for your deliverance. The time has come. The time has come | today. |
| W1:199.5 | Cherish today's idea, and practice it | today and every day. Make it a part of every practice period you |
| W1:199.7 | Be free | today, and carry freedom as your gift to those who still believe they |
| W1:199.8 | this? Then practice well the thought the Holy Spirit gives you for | today. Your brothers stand released with you in it; the world is |
| W1:200.9 | Let us not lose our way again | today. We go to Heaven, and the path is straight. Only if we attempt |
| W1:200.11 | Today we seek no idols. Peace cannot be found in them. The peace of | |
| W1:200.11 | God is ours, and only this will we accept and want. Peace be to us | today. For we have found a simple, happy way to leave the world of |
| W1:218.1 | through my sightless eyes I cannot see the vision of my glory. Yet | today I can behold this glory and be glad. I am not a body. I am |
| W2:221.1 | Father, I come to You | today to seek the peace that You alone can give. I come in silence. |
| W2:221.1 | of my mind, I wait and listen for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me | today. I come to hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and |
| W2:222.1 | shines on Him. How still is he who knows the truth of what He speaks | today! |
| W2:223.2 | longer. We are lonely here and long for Heaven where we are at home. | Today we would return. Our Name is Yours, and we acknowledge that we |
| W2:227.1 | Father, it is | today that I am free because my will is Yours. I thought to make |
| W2:227.2 | And so | today we find our glad return to Heaven, which we never really left. |
| W2:228.2 | part of You. And my mistakes about myself are dreams. I let them go | today. And I stand ready to receive Your Word alone for what I really |
| W2:232.1 | my mind, my Father, when I wake and shine on me throughout the day | today. Let every minute be a time in which I dwell with You. And let |
| W2:232.2 | This is as every day should be. | Today practice the end of fear. Have faith in Him Who is your Father. |
| W2:233.1 | Father, I give You all my thoughts | today. I would have none of mine. In place of them, give me Your own. |
| W2:233.1 | goals which cannot be obtained and wasting time in vain imaginings. | Today I come to You. I will step back and merely follow You. Be You |
| W2:233.2 | Today we have one Guide to lead us on. And as we walk together, we | |
| W2:234.1 | Today we will anticipate the time when dreams of sin and guilt are | |
| W2:234.1 | peace of God the Father and the Son. This we accept as wholly true | today. |
| W2:236.1 | to serve whatever purpose I perceive in it. My mind can only serve. | Today I give its service to the Holy Spirit to employ as He sees fit. |
| W2:236.2 | Father, my mind is open to Your thoughts and closed | today to every thought but Yours. I rule my mind and offer it to You. |
| W2:237.1 | Today I will accept the truth about myself. I will arise in glory and | |
| W2:237.2 | Christ is my eyes | today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice of God today. |
| W2:237.2 | is my eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the Voice of God | today. Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your Son and my true |
| W2:238.2 | And so again | today we pause to think how much our Father loves us. And how dear |
| W2:239.1 | Let not the truth about ourselves | today be hidden by a false humility. Let us instead be thankful for |
| W2:240.1 | but to your own illusions of yourself. Let us not be deceived | today. We are the Son of God. There is no fear in us, for we are each |
| W2:240.2 | are our fears! Would You allow Your Son to suffer? Give us faith | today to recognize Your Son and set him free. Let us forgive him in |
| W2:241.1 | What joy there is | today! It is a time of special celebration. For today holds out the |
| W2:241.1 | What joy there is today! It is a time of special celebration. For | today holds out the instant to the darkened world where its release |
| W2:241.1 | sorrows pass away and pain is gone. The glory of salvation dawns | today upon a world set free. This is the time of hope for countless |
| W2:241.1 | be united now as you forgive them all. For I will be forgiven by you | today. |
| W2:242.1 | I will not lead my life alone | today. I do not understand the world. And so to try to lead my life |
| W2:242.2 | And so we give | today to You. We come with wholly open minds. We do not ask for |
| W2:243.1 | I will be honest with myself | today. I will not think that I already know what must remain beyond |
| W2:243.1 | the whole from bits of my perception, which are all that I can see. | Today I recognize that this is so. And so I am relieved of judgment |
| W2:243.2 | Father, | today I leave creation free to be itself. I honor all its parts, in |
| W2:247.2 | So would I look on everyone | today. My brothers are Your Sons. Your Fatherhood created them and |
| W2:247.2 | them and gave them all to me as part of You and my own Self as well. | Today I honor You through them, and thus I hope this day to recognize |
| W2:250.1 | Let me behold the Son of God | today and witness to his glory. Let me not try to obscure the holy |
| W2:250.2 | He is Your Son, my Father. And | today I would behold his gentleness instead of my illusions. He is |
| W2:250.2 | of my illusions. He is what I am, and as I see him, so I see myself. | Today I would see truly that this day I may at last identify with him. |
| W2:WIS.5 | children's toys? How soon will you be ready to come home? Perhaps | today? There is no sin. Creation is unchanged. Would you still hold |
| W2:254.1 | Father, | today I would but hear Your Voice. In deepest silence, I would come |
| W2:254.1 | the truth. And truth is but Your Will, which I would share with You | today. |
| W2:254.2 | Today we let no ego thoughts direct our words or actions. When such | |
| W2:255.1 | It does not seem to me that I can choose to have but peace | today. And yet my God assures me that His Son is like Himself. Let me |
| W2:255.1 | in Him Who says I am God's Son. And let the peace I choose be mine | today bear witness to the truth of what He says. God's Son can have |
| W2:255.1 | and must remain forever in the peace of Heaven. In his name I give | today to finding what my Father wills for me, accepting it as mine |
| W2:255.2 | You gave him still is in his mind, and it is there I choose to spend | today. |
| W2:256.1 | whom all sin remains impossible, and it is this we choose to dream | today. God is our goal; forgiveness is the means by which our minds |
| W2:257.1 | depression. Let us therefore be determined to remember what we want | today that we may unify our thoughts and actions meaningfully and |
| W2:257.1 | and actions meaningfully and achieve only what God would have us do | today. |
| W2:257.2 | our salvation. Let us not forget that we can have no will but Yours | today. And thus our purpose must be Yours as well if we would reach |
| W2:259.2 | Father, I would not be insane | today. I would not be afraid of love nor seek for refuge in its |
| W2:260.1 | remaining part of What created me. Your Son, my Father, calls on You | today. Let me remember You created me. Let me remember my Identity. |
| W2:260.1 | vision, through which I would look upon my brothers and myself | today. |
| W2:261.1 | within the citadel where I am safe and cannot be attacked. Let me | today seek not security in danger, nor attempt to find my peace in |
| W2:261.2 | Let me not seek for idols. I would come, my Father, home to You | today. I choose to be as You created me and find the Son whom You |
| W2:262.1 | Father, You have one Son. And it is he that I would look upon | today. He is Your one creation. Why should I perceive a thousand |
| W2:264.1 | Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to You in Your own Name | today, to be at peace within Your everlasting Love. |
| W2:264.2 | My brothers, join with me in this | today. This is salvation's prayer. Must we not join in what will save |
| W2:265.1 | that what I feared was in the world instead of in my mind alone. | Today I see the world in the celestial gentleness with which creation |
| W2:268.1 | Let me not be Your critic, Lord, | today, and judge against You. Let me not attempt to interfere with |
| W2:268.2 | Let not our sight be blasphemous | today nor let our ears attend to lying tongues. Only reality is free |
| W2:268.2 | of loss. Only reality is wholly safe. And it is only this we seek | today. |
| W2:269.1 | I ask Your blessing on my sight | today. It is the means which You have chosen to become the way to |
| W2:269.1 | to truth. I ask for the illusion which transcends all those I made. | Today I choose to see a world forgiven in which everyone shows me the |
| W2:269.2 | Today our sight is blessed indeed. We share one vision as we look | |
| W2:270.2 | The quiet of | today will bless our hearts, and through them peace will come to |
| W2:270.2 | and through them peace will come to everyone. Christ is our eyes | today. And through His sight, we offer healing to the world through |
| W2:271.1 | I want to hear, the witnesses to what I want to be the truth for me. | Today I choose to look upon what Christ would have me see, to listen |
| W2:271.2 | to be restored to me. And this I choose to be what I would look upon | today. |
| W2:272.2 | Today we pass illusions by. And if we hear temptation call to us to | |
| W2:274.1 | Father, | today I would let all things be as You created them and give Your Son |
| W2:274.2 | A special blessing comes to us | today from Him Who is our Father. Give this day to Him and there will |
| W2:274.2 | Who is our Father. Give this day to Him and there will be no fear | today because the day is given unto Love. |
| W2:275.1 | Let us | today attend the Voice of God, Which speaks an ancient lesson, no |
| W2:275.1 | the Voice of God, Which speaks an ancient lesson, no more true | today than any other day. Yet has this day been chosen as the time |
| W2:275.2 | Your healing Voice protects all things | today, and so I leave all things to You. I need be anxious over |
| W2:278.2 | and my creation and have brought a dream of fear into my mind. | Today I would not dream. I choose the way to You instead of madness |
| W2:279.2 | I will accept Your promises | today and give my faith to them. My Father loves the Son Whom He |
| W2:280.2 | Today let me give honor to Your Son, for thus alone I find the way to | |
| W2:281.2 | I will not hurt myself | today. For I am far beyond all pain. My Father placed me safe in |
| W2:282.1 | If I could realize but this | today, salvation would be reached for all the world. This the |
| W2:282.2 | The name of fear is simply a mistake. Let me not be afraid of truth | today. |
| W2:284.1 | to change all thoughts that hurt. And I would go beyond these words | today, go past all reservations, and arrive at full acceptance of the |
| W2:284.2 | grief and pain must be impossible. Let me not fail to trust in You | today, accepting but the joyous as Your gifts, accepting but the |
| W2:285.1 | Today I wake with joy, expecting but the happy things of God to come | |
| W2:285.1 | and how would grief and loss avail me, if insanity departs from me | today and I accept my holiness instead? |
| W2:286.1 | Father, how still | today! How quietly do all things fall in place! This is the day that |
| W2:286.2 | The stillness of | today will give us hope that we have found the way and traveled far |
| W2:286.2 | found the way and traveled far along it to a wholly certain goal. | Today we will not doubt the end which God Himself has promised us. We |
| W2:288.2 | Forgive me, then, | today. And you will know you have forgiven me if you behold your |
| W2:290.2 | With this resolve, I come to You and ask Your strength to hold me up | today while I but seek to do Your Will. You cannot fail to hear me, |
| W2:290.2 | You already given me, and I am sure that I will see my happiness | today. |
| W2:291.1 | Christ's vision looks through me | today. His sight shows me all things forgiven and at peace and offers |
| W2:291.1 | for myself and for the world as well. What loveliness we look upon | today! What holiness we see surrounding us! And it is given us to |
| W2:293.2 | Father, let not Your holy world escape my sight | today. Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns of gratitude the |
| W2:293.2 | all past mistakes. And I would see only this world before my eyes | today. |
| W2:294.1 | unneeded and cast off. Let me not see it more than this | today—of service for a while and fit to serve, to keep its |
| W2:295.1 | Christ asks that He may use my eyes | today and thus redeem the world. He asks this gift that He may offer |
| W2:295.2 | one I give that it be given me. Help me to use the eyes of Christ | today and thus allow the Holy Spirit's love to bless all things that |
| W2:296.1 | The Holy Spirit needs my voice | today, that all the world may listen to Your Voice and hear Your Word |
| W2:296.1 | I may find escape and hear the Word Your holy Voice will speak to me | today. |
| W2:296.2 | We teach | today what we would learn and that alone. And so our learning goal |
| W2:298.2 | Father, I come to You | today, because I would not follow any way but Yours. You are beside |
| W2:300.1 | And it is this serenity we seek, unclouded, obvious, and sure | today. |
| W2:300.2 | We seek Your holy world | today. For we, Your loving Sons, have lost our way a while. But we |
| W2:300.2 | to be restored to Heaven and our true Identity. And we give thanks | today the world endures but for an instant. We would go beyond that |
| W2:301.1 | I judge it not. And therefore is it only what You will. Let me | today behold it uncondemned through happy eyes forgiveness has |
| W2:301.1 | for their source is gone. Father, I will not judge Your world | today. |
| W2:301.2 | the world we saw was false, and we will look upon God's world | today. |
| W2:302.1 | must disappear when love has come. Let me forgive Your holy world | today that I may look upon its holiness and understand it but |
| W2:303.1 | Watch with me, angels; watch with me | today. Let all God's holy thoughts surround me and be still with me |
| W2:303.1 | Let Him no longer be a stranger here, for He is born again in me | today. |
| W2:305.2 | Christ is given us because it is Your will that we be saved. Help us | today but to accept Your gift and judge it not. For it has come to us |
| W2:306.1 | What but Christ's vision would I use | today when it can offer me a day in which I see a world so like to |
| W2:306.1 | see a world so like to Heaven that an ancient memory returns to me? | Today I can forget the world I made. Today I can go past all fear and |
| W2:306.1 | ancient memory returns to me? Today I can forget the world I made. | Today I can go past all fear and be restored to love and holiness and |
| W2:306.1 | can go past all fear and be restored to love and holiness and peace. | Today I am redeemed and born anew into a world of mercy and of care; |
| W2:309.2 | The step I take | today, my Father, is my sure release from idle dreams of sin. Your |
| W2:310.1 | Your grace has come to me and that it is Your will that I be free | today. |
| W2:310.2 | are restored to peace and holiness. There is no room in us for fear | today, for we have welcomed love into our hearts. |
| W2:311.1 | cannot see totality and therefore judges falsely. Let us not use it | today but make a gift of it to Him Who has a different use for it. He |
| W2:311.2 | Father, we wait with open mind | today to hear Your Judgment of the Son You love. We do not know him, |
| W2:312.2 | I have no purpose for | today except to look upon a liberated world, set free from all the |
| W2:312.2 | from all the judgments I have made. Father, this is Your will for me | today, and therefore it must be my goal as well. |
| W2:313.2 | Let us | today behold each other in the sight of Christ. How beautiful we are! |
| W2:313.2 | we are! How holy and how loving! Brother, come and join with me | today. We save the world when we are joined. For in our vision it |
| W2:315.2 | I thank You, Father, for the many gifts that come to me | today and every day from every Son of God. My brothers are unlimited |
| W2:316.2 | Father, I would accept Your gifts | today. I do not recognize them. Yet I trust that You Who gave them |
| W2:317.2 | Father, Your way is what I choose | today. Where it would lead me, do I choose to go; what it would have |
| W2:318.2 | Let me | today, my Father, take the role You offer me in Your request that I |
| W2:321.2 | Today we answer for the world, which will be freed along with us. How | |
| W2:326.2 | Let us | today behold earth disappear, at first transformed, and then, |
| W2:329.2 | Today we will accept our union with each other and our Source. We | |
| W2:330.1 | God created cannot sin and therefore cannot suffer. Let us choose | today that He be our Identity and thus escape forever from all things |

| W1:4.2 | In selecting the subjects for the application of | today's idea, the usual specificity is required. Do not be afraid to |

| W1:11.2 | The practice periods for | today's idea are to be undertaken somewhat differently from the |
| W1:12.5 | one. All terms which cross your mind are suitable subjects for | today's exercises. Their seeming quality does not matter. |
| W1:12.6 | Be sure that you do not alter the time intervals between applying | today's idea to what you think is pleasant and what you think is |
| W1:13.1 | Today's idea is really another form of the preceding one, except that | |
| W1:13.4 | different way from the preceding ones. With eyes closed, repeat | today's idea to yourself. Then open your eyes and look about you |
| W1:14.2 | a minute at most. Do not have more than three practice periods with | today's idea unless you find them comfortable. If you do, it will be |
| W1:14.6 | Suitable subjects for the application of | today's idea also include anything you are afraid might happen to you |
| W1:14.7 | recognition of this fact, conclude the practice periods by repeating | today's idea: |
| W1:15.6 | include a large number of specific subjects for the application of | today's idea. It is necessary, however, to continue to look at each |
| W1:15.7 | to feel uneasy. Do not have more than three application periods for | today's idea unless you feel completely comfortable with it, and do |
| W1:16.4 | quality which you assign to it, is a suitable subject for applying | today's idea. |
| W1:16.7 | As usual, use | today's idea whenever you are aware of a particular thought which |
| W1:17.2 | In applying | today's idea, say to yourself, with eyes open: |
| W1:18.2 | Today's idea does not refer to what you see as much as to how you see | |
| W1:19.3 | The minute or so of mind searching which | today's exercises require are to be undertaken with eyes closed. The |
| W1:19.6 | Apart from the “as needed” application of | today's idea, at least three practice periods are required, |
| W1:20.4 | in reminding yourselves throughout the day that you want to see. | Today's idea also tacitly implies the recognition that you do not see |
| W1:20.5 | Repeat | today's idea slowly and positively at least twice an hour today, |
| W1:22.1 | Today's idea accurately describes the way anyone who holds attack | |
| W1:23.6 | as the need arises, five practice periods are required in applying | today's idea. As you look about you, repeat the idea slowly to |
| W1:23.9 | and you are asked at this time only to treat them as the same in | today's practice periods. We are still at the stage of identifying |
| W1:24.4 | The practice periods begin with repeating | today's idea, followed by searching the mind with closed eyes for |
| W1:25.1 | Purpose is meaning. | Today's idea explains why nothing you see means anything. You do not |
| W1:25.8 | completed the statement. Then move on to the next subject, and apply | today's idea as before. |
| W1:26.4 | Practice with | today's idea will help you to understand that vulnerability or |
| W1:26.5 | Six practice periods are required in applying | today's idea. A full two minutes should be attempted for each of |
| W1:26.6 | because a longer time than usual should be spent with each one. | Today's idea should be applied as follows: |
| W1:26.15 | Conclude each practice period by repeating | today's idea once more. |
| W1:27.1 | Today's idea expresses something stronger than mere determination. It | |
| W1:27.1 | not sure you really mean it. This does not matter. The purpose of | today's exercises is to bring the time when the idea will be wholly |
| W1:27.7 | real question is how often will you remember? How much do you want | today's idea to be true? Answer one of these questions, and you have |
| W1:27.7 | you feel that you were perfectly sincere while you were repeating | today's idea, you can be sure that you have saved yourself many years |
| W1:28.7 | chosen randomly, but each one should be accorded equal sincerity as | today's idea is applied to it in an attempt to acknowledge the equal |
| W1:29.1 | every idea we have used thus far and all subsequent ones as well. | Today's idea is the whole basis for vision. |
| W1:29.3 | shown you the holiness that lights up the world, you will understand | today's idea perfectly. And you will not understand how you could |
| W1:29.4 | selection, which may be particularly tempting in connection with | today's idea because of its wholly alien nature. Remember that any |
| W1:30.3 | Today's idea should be applied as often as possible throughout the | |
| W1:30.4 | present range as well as those you can actually see, as you apply | today's idea. Real vision is not only unlimited by space and |
| W1:30.5 | to this idea as well, devote several practice periods to applying | today's idea with your eyes closed, using whatever subjects come to |
| W1:30.5 | subjects come to mind and looking within rather than without. | Today's idea applies equally to both. |
| W1:31.1 | Today's idea is the introduction to your declaration of release. | |
| W1:31.3 | on your part. As you sit and quietly watch your thoughts, repeat | today's idea to yourself as often as you care to, but with no sense |
| W1:32.2 | you see outside you and the other the world you see in your mind. In | today's exercises, try to introduce the thought that both are in your |
| W1:33.1 | Today's idea is an attempt to recognize that you can shift your | |
| W1:33.3 | periods should be as frequent as possible. Specific applications of | today's idea should also be made immediately when any situation |
| W1:33.5 | Remember to apply | today's idea the instant you are aware of distress. It may be |
| W1:34.2 | Three longer practice periods are required for | today's exercises. One in the morning and one in the evening are |
| W1:34.2 | eyes closed. It is your inner world to which the applications of | today's idea should be made. |
| W1:34.7 | its original form. If you find you need more than one application of | today's idea to help you change your mind in any specific context, |
| W1:35.1 | Today's idea does not describe the way you see yourself now. It does, | |
| W1:35.3 | in truth. We will use a somewhat different kind of application for | today's idea because the emphasis for today is on the perceiver |
| W1:35.4 | of the three five-minute practice periods today, begin by repeating | today's idea to yourself and then close your eyes and search your |
| W1:35.8 | to your reactions to that situation, and use them in applying | today's idea. After you have named each one, add: |
| W1:35.10 | up specific things to fill the interval, but merely relax and repeat | today's idea slowly until something occurs to you. Although nothing |
| W1:36.1 | Today's idea extends the idea for yesterday from the perceiver to the | |
| W1:37.4 | Today's four longer exercise periods, each to involve three to five | |
| W1:38.3 | In | today's exercises, we will apply the power of your holiness to all |
| W1:38.8 | the theme “There is nothing my holiness cannot do.” The purpose of | today's exercises is to begin to instill in you a sense that you have |
| W1:39.3 | not have. A savior must be saved. How else can he teach salvation? | Today's exercises will apply to you alone, recognizing that your |
| W1:39.6 | Begin the practice periods as usual by repeating | today's idea to yourself. Then with closed eyes search out your |
| W1:39.7 | with unloving thoughts of any kind are suitable subjects for | today's exercises. It is imperative for your own salvation that you |
| W1:39.10 | with several short periods during which you merely repeat | today's idea to yourself slowly a few times. You may also find it |
| W1:39.14 | and more if possible, you may ask yourself this question, repeat | today's idea, or preferably both. If temptations arise, a |
| W1:40.3 | Today's exercises take little time and no effort. Repeat today's | |
| W1:40.3 | Today's exercises take little time and no effort. Repeat | today's idea, and then add several of the attributes which you |
| W1:41.1 | Today's idea will eventually overcome completely the sense of | |
| W1:41.5 | your eyes closed. At the beginning of the practice period, repeat | today's idea very slowly. Then make no effort to think of anything. |
| W1:41.6 | From time to time, you may repeat | today's idea if you find it helpful. But most of all, try to sink |
| W1:41.8 | Throughout the day, use | today's idea often, repeating it very slowly and preferably with eyes |
| W1:42.4 | think of nothing except thoughts which occur to you in relation to | today's idea. You might think, for example: |
| W1:42.8 | that active searching for relevant thoughts is not appropriate for | today's exercises. Try merely to step back and let the thoughts come. |
| W1:43.8 | and longer phase of the exercise period, close your eyes, repeat | today's idea again, and then let whatever relevant thoughts occur to |
| W1:43.10 | Or any thought related more or less directly to | today's idea is suitable. The thoughts need not bear an obvious |
| W1:43.11 | begin to be aware of thoughts which are clearly out of accord with | today's idea, or if you seem to be unable to think of anything, open |
| W1:43.12 | In applying | today's idea in the shorter practice periods, the form may vary |
| W1:43.18 | not to allow long periods of time to slip by without remembering | today's idea and thus remembering your function. |
| W1:44.7 | Begin the practice period by repeating | today's idea with your eyes open and close them slowly, repeating the |
| W1:44.9 | If resistance rises in any form, pause long enough to repeat | today's idea, keeping your eyes closed unless you are aware of fear. |
| W1:45.1 | Today's idea holds the key to what your real thoughts are. They are | |
| W1:45.12 | In using the shorter form for applying | today's idea, try to remember how important it is to you to |
| W1:46.3 | Today's exercises require at least three full five-minute practice | |
| W1:46.3 | as possible. Begin the longer practice periods by repeating | today's idea to yourself, as usual. Close your eyes as you do so and |
| W1:46.6 | The purpose of the first phase of | today's practice is to put you in the best position to forgive |
| W1:46.12 | The practice period should end, however, with a repetition of | today's idea as originally stated. |
| W1:47.4 | ones are urged. Close your eyes and begin as usual by repeating | today's idea. Then spend a minute or two in searching for situations |
| W1:48.2 | Today's practice periods will be very short, very simple, and very | |
| W1:49.5 | Do not forget to repeat | today's idea very frequently. Do so with your eyes open when |
| W1:52.1 | Today's review covers these ideas: | |
| W1:55.1 | Today's review includes the following: | |
| W1:60.1 | These ideas are for | today's review: |
| W1:61.2 | To the ego, | today's idea is the epitome of self-glorification. But the ego does |
| W1:61.3 | True humility requires that you accept | today's idea because it is God's Voice Which tells you it is true. |
| W1:61.9 | Today's idea goes far beyond the ego's petty views of what you are | |
| W1:62.4 | Let us be glad to begin and end this day by practicing | today's idea and to use it as frequently as possible throughout the |
| W1:63.5 | for such an opportunity. No chance should be lost for reinforcing | today's idea. |
| W1:64.1 | Today's idea is merely another way of saying, “Let me not wander into | |

| W1:66.13 | Today's idea is another giant stride in the perception of the same as | |
| W1:67.1 | Today's idea is a complete and accurate statement of what you are. | |
| W1:68.6 | Begin | today's extended practice period by searching your mind for those |
| W1:68.11 | The short practice periods should include a quick application of | today's idea in this form, whenever any thought of grievance arises |
| W1:69.9 | will want to do as often as possible in view of the importance of | today's idea to you and your happiness, remind yourself that your |
| W1:70.2 | The seeming “cost” of accepting | today's idea is this: it means that nothing outside yourself can save |
| W1:70.3 | Today's idea places you in charge of the universe, where you belong | |
| W1:71.9 | Begin the two longer practice periods for today by thinking about | today's idea, and realizing that it contains two parts, each making |
| W1:71.13 | to hold grievances today, and respond to them with this form of | today's idea: |
| W1:73.17 | several times an hour. It is most important, however, to apply | today's idea in this form immediately you are tempted to hold a |
| W1:74.2 | There is great peace in | today's idea. And the exercises for today are directed towards |
| W1:76.12 | joys of Heaven which His laws keep limitless forever. We will repeat | today's idea until we have listened and understood there are no laws |
| W1:81.3 | Some specific forms for applying | today's idea when specific difficulties seem to arise might be: |
| W1:84.1 | These are the ideas for | today's review: |
| W1:85.1 | Today's review will cover these ideas: | |
| W1:91.14 | miracles are seen in light. Also, be sure to meet temptation with | today's idea. This form would be helpful for this special purpose: |
| W1:95.1 | Today's idea accurately describes you as God created you. You are one | |
| W1:95.20 | Throughout the day do not forget your goal. Repeat | today's idea as frequently as possible and understand each time you |
| W1:95.20 | with you. To everyone you meet today be sure to give the promise of | today's idea and tell him this: |
| W1:97.1 | Today's idea identifies you with your One Self. It accepts no split | |
| W1:98.7 | of but five minutes. He will give the words you use in practicing | today's idea the deep conviction and the certainty you lack. His |
| W1:98.7 | you lack. His words will join with yours and make each repetition of | today's idea a total dedication, made in faith as perfect and as sure |
| W1:98.12 | for the next five minutes you will spend again with Him. Repeat | today's idea while you wait for the glad time to come to you again. |
| W1:100.8 | Begin the exercises with the thought | today's idea contains. Then realize your part is to be happy. Only |
| W1:101.6 | this thought as often as we can today because it is the basis for | today's idea. God's Will for you is perfect happiness because there |
| W1:101.10 | Today escape from madness. You are set on freedom's road, and now | today's idea brings wings to speed you on and hope to go still faster |
| W1:104.1 | Today's idea continues with the thought that joy and peace are not | |
| W1:108.1 | Vision depends upon | today's idea. The light is in it, for it reconciles all seeming |
| W1:110.1 | We will repeat | today's idea from time to time. For this one thought would be enough |
| W1:110.2 | has no meaning, evil is not real, and misery and death do not exist. | Today's idea is therefore all you need to let complete correction |
| W1:110.5 | The healing power of | today's idea is limitless. It is the birthplace of all miracles, the |
| W1:110.5 | great restorer of the truth to the awareness of the world. Practice | today's idea with gratitude. This is the truth that comes to set you |
| W1:126.1 | Today's idea, completely alien to the ego and the thinking of the | |
| W1:126.9 | Give 15 minutes twice today to the attempt to understand | today's idea. It is the thought by which forgiveness takes its proper |
| W1:126.10 | place where thoughts are changed and false beliefs laid by. Repeat | today's idea, and ask for help in understanding what it really means. |
| W1:132.9 | Today's idea is true because the world does not exist. And if it is | |
| W1:132.10 | must now be stressed again, for it contains the firm foundation for | today's idea. You are as God created you. There is no place where you |
| W1:137.1 | Today's idea remains the central thought on which salvation rests. | |
| W1:156.1 | Today's idea but states the simple truth that makes the thought of | |
| W1:157.4 | day, what you are asking must be given you. Nothing is needed but | today's idea to light your mind and let it rest in still anticipation |
| W1:161.1 | to love. Here is salvation in the simple words in which we practice | today's idea. Here is the answer to temptation which can never fail |
| W1:161.16 | Today's idea is your safe escape from anger and from fear. Be sure | |
| W1:183.7 | on this. No other words we use except at the beginning, when we say | today's idea but once. And then God's Name becomes our only thought, |
| W1:186.3 | Today's idea may seem quite sobering until you see its meaning. All | |
| W1:191.5 | But let | today's idea find a place among your thoughts, and you have risen far |
| W1:194.1 | Today's idea takes another step toward quick salvation, and a giant | |
| W1:194.2 | Accept | today's idea, and you have passed all anxiety, all pits of hell, all |
| W1:194.2 | thoughts of sin, and devastation brought about by guilt. Accept | today's idea, and you have released the world from all imprisonment |
| W1:196.3 | not believe you are a body to be crucified. And you will see within | today's idea the light of resurrection, looking past all thoughts of |
| W1:196.4 | Today's idea is one step we take in leading us from bondage to the | |
| W1:199.3 | It is essential for your progress in this course that you accept | today's idea and hold it very dear. Be not concerned that to the ego |

| Tx:10.39 | are ready to look more closely at the ego's thought system because | together we have the lamp that will dispel it, and since you realize |
| Tx:10.39 | it since you have made it real. We will undo this error quietly | together and then look beyond it to truth. |
| Tx:10.60 | to the Father? For these questions are all the same and are answered | together. There has been much confusion about what perception means |
| Tx:10.62 | what has been accomplished for you. For we ascend unto the Father | together, as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, for |
| Tx:10.86 | part of you as sick and achieve your own goal. Brother, we heal | together as we live together and love together. Be not deceived in |
| Tx:10.86 | sick and achieve your own goal. Brother, we heal together as we live | together and love together. Be not deceived in God's Son, for he is |
| Tx:10.86 | own goal. Brother, we heal together as we live together and love | together. Be not deceived in God's Son, for he is one with himself |
| Tx:11.21 | I have in you, and we will easily accomplish the goal of perfection | together. For perfection is and cannot be denied. To deny the denial |
| Tx:11.21 | not so difficult as the denial of truth, and what we can accomplish | together must be believed when you see it as accomplished. |
| Tx:11.72 | you look within, and we will look upon the world as God created it | together. Through the eyes of Christ, only the real world exists and |
| Tx:11.83 | of love to unite all things unto itself, and to hold all things | together by extending its wholeness. |
| Tx:12.75 | already overcome every temptation that would hold you back. We walk | together on the way to quietness that is the gift of God. Hold me |
| Tx:12.75 | you need? We will restore to you the peace of mind that we must find | together. The Holy Spirit will teach you to awaken unto us and to |
| Tx:13.3 | be seen in everything and everywhere. Yet only God can gather them | together by crowning them as one with the final gift of eternity. |
| Tx:13.32 | guilt and wholly loving, is bright within you. Let us look upon him | together and love him. For in our love of him is your guiltlessness. |
| Tx:13.34 | make the Father one with His own Son. Alone we are all lowly, but | together we shine with brightness so intense that none of us alone |
| Tx:13.91 | and Father, and awaking gladly to His love and holiness, which join | together as the truth in you, making you one with Him. |
| Tx:14.10 | Teachers of innocence, each in his own way, have joined | together, taking their part in the unified curriculum of the |
| Tx:14.16 | The journey that we undertake | together is the exchange of dark for light, of ignorance for |
| Tx:14.19 | of guiltlessness shines guilt away because, when they are brought | together, the truth of one must make the falsity of its opposite |
| Tx:14.24 | or ignorance are yours, but not both. Opposites must be brought | together and not kept apart. For their separation is only in your |
| Tx:14.27 | both maintained. It has been recognized that if they were brought | together their joint acceptance would become impossible. But if one |
| Tx:14.28 | each in a separate place can be endowed with firm belief. Bring them | together, and the fact of their complete incompatibility is instantly |
| Tx:14.30 | light, and you the darkness. They cannot coexist when both of you | together look on them. His judgment must prevail, and He will give it |
| Tx:14.35 | may choose to lead yourselves astray, but you can only be brought | together by the Guide appointed for you. He will surely lead you to |
| Tx:14.36 | the Father and His creations, and the creations of His Son with them | together. There is one link which joins them all together, holding |
| Tx:14.36 | His Son with them together. There is one link which joins them all | together, holding them in the oneness out of which creation happens. |
| Tx:14.37 | can coexist beside it. Here your meager offerings are brought | together with the gift of God, and only what is worthy of the Father |
| Tx:14.38 | to holiness, or what you made to what you are. The bringing | together of truth and illusion, of the ego to God, is the Holy |
| Tx:14.48 | thoughts, which, even though they may conflict, can occur to you | together and in great numbers. You are so used to this that it can |
| Tx:14.50 | The little sanity which still remains is held | together by a sense of order which you establish. Yet the very fact |
| Tx:14.53 | impressive but which lack any consistent sense when they are put | together. |
| Tx:14.54 | of the ego's judgments. Separately, they seem to hold, but put them | together and the system of thought which arises from joining them is |
| Tx:14.54 | For no one alone can judge the ego truly. Yet when two or more join | together in searching for truth, the ego can no longer defend its |
| Tx:14.55 | unless he joins with you in seeking it. If you undertake the search | together, you bring with you a light so powerful that what you see is |
| Tx:14.72 | you pass the test of perfect peace, for peace and understanding go | together and never can be found alone. Each brings the other with it, |
| Tx:15.5 | doing both by using dissociation for holding its contradictory aims | together so that they seem to be reconciled. The ego teaches thus: |
| Tx:15.29 | join with me, who decided for holiness for you. It is our task | together to restore the awareness of magnitude to the host whom God |
| Tx:15.31 | you can learn of me. I would but teach you what is yours, so that | together we can replace the shabby littleness that binds the host of |
| Tx:15.33 | in His that we may release all those who would be bound, proclaiming | together that the Son of God is host to Him. Thus will we let no one |
| Tx:15.41 | with those around you and with God Who surrounds all of you | together. |
| Tx:15.57 | holy instant, we share our faith in God's Son because we recognize | together that he is wholly worthy of it, and in our appreciation of |
| Tx:15.63 | else, or would attempt to be nothing else and something else | together, the language of communication, which you know perfectly, |
| Tx:15.64 | brothers is remembered with Him. For communication is remembered | together, as is truth. There is no exclusion in the holy instant |
| Tx:15.71 | that the ego can ensure the guilt which holds all its relationships | together. |
| Tx:15.72 | Yet they only seem to be | together. For relationships, to the ego, mean only that bodies are |
| Tx:15.72 | together. For relationships, to the ego, mean only that bodies are | together. It is always physical closeness that the ego demands, and |
| Tx:15.75 | must be kept private or you will lose them, and if your bodies are | together your minds remain your own. The union of bodies thus becomes |
| Tx:15.80 | aside but what you still desire with all your hearts. Let us join | together in making the holy instant all that there is by desiring |
| Tx:15.80 | Behold the only need that God and His Son share and will to meet | together. You are not alone in this. The will of your creations calls |
| Tx:15.92 | Release me as I will your release. The time of Christ we celebrate | together, for it has no meaning if we are apart. |
| Tx:15.95 | manifestations of the same idea, and one you do not want, they go | together. The idea is simply this—you believe that it is possible |
| Tx:15.101 | and the Thought that has been given you. When they are brought | together and perceived where they are, the choice between them is |
| Tx:15.103 | you may join with Him in healing, and let us celebrate our release | together by releasing everyone with us. Leave nothing behind, for |
| Tx:15.106 | away holds all the meaning of the universe and holds the universe | together in its meaning. For unless the universe were joined in you, |
| Tx:15.111 | I will your release, because I recognize that we will be released | together. |
| Tx:16.18 | greater faith in the disaster you have made. Today let us resolve | together to accept the joyful tidings that disaster is not real and |
| Tx:16.19 | yourself and been successful. Is it not time you brought these facts | together and made sense of them? |
| Tx:16.25 | God nor His creation. He is both God and you, as you are God and Him | together. For God's answer to the separation added more to you than |
| Tx:16.25 | you tried to take away. He protected both your creations and you | together, keeping one with you what you would exclude. And they will |
| Tx:16.32 | is welcome in some aspects of the relationship, but it is still held | together by the illusion of love. If the illusion goes, the |
| Tx:16.41 | way of truth. We will take the last foolish journey away from truth | together, and then together we go straight to God in joyous answer to |
| Tx:16.41 | take the last foolish journey away from truth together, and then | together we go straight to God in joyous answer to His call for His |
| Tx:16.42 | you are complete forever. There is no veil the love of God in us | together cannot lift. The way to truth is open. Follow it with me. |
| Tx:16.44 | and even natural. No one considers it bizarre to love and hate | together, and even those who believe that hate is sin merely feel |
| Tx:16.63 | you to bring your brothers to the bridge with you and to be released | together there. |
| Tx:16.64 | on the distorted frame of reference which seemed to hold your world | together. This frame of reference is built around the special |
| Tx:17.42 | of relationship and know it to be true. Let us ascend in peace | together to the Father by giving Him ascendance in our minds. We will |
| Tx:17.51 | this is loss. In your newness, remember that you have started again | together. And take each other's hand to walk together along a road |
| Tx:17.51 | you have started again together. And take each other's hand to walk | together along a road far more familiar than you now believe. Is it |
| Tx:17.52 | Condemn salvation not, for it has come to you. And welcome it | together, for it has come to join you together in a relationship in |
| Tx:17.52 | come to you. And welcome it together, for it has come to join you | together in a relationship in which all the Sonship is together |
| Tx:17.52 | to join you together in a relationship in which all the Sonship is | together blessed. |
| Tx:17.53 | You undertook | together to invite the Holy Spirit into your relationship. He could |
| Tx:17.55 | You stand | together in the holy presence of truth itself. Here is the goal, |
| Tx:17.55 | together in the holy presence of truth itself. Here is the goal, | together with you. Think you not the goal itself will gladly arrange |
| Tx:17.59 | it has already happened. Then you look back at it and try to piece | together what it must have meant. And you will be wrong. Not only is |
| Tx:18.9 | about each other can abide. Here you are joined in God, as much | together as you are with Him. The original error has not entered |
| Tx:18.10 | and as one. And as He loves you, so you are. You are not joined | together in illusions but in the Thought so holy and so perfect that |
| Tx:18.10 | illusions cannot remain to darken the holy place in which you stand | together. God is with you, my brothers. Let us join in Him in peace |
| Tx:18.11 | relationship with truth. God and His whole creation have entered it | together. How lovely and how holy is your relationship, with the |
| Tx:18.11 | is as it was created.] The universe within you stands with you, | together. And Heaven looks with love on what is joined in it, along |
| Tx:18.12 | of peace in those who heard? Return with me to Heaven, walking | together out of this world and through another to the loveliness and |
| Tx:18.13 | You have been called | together to the most holy function that this world contains. It is |
| Tx:18.13 | glowing purpose in which you join. The holy light that brought you | together must extend, as you accepted it. |
| Tx:18.28 | Each instant that we spend | together will teach you that this goal is possible and will |
| Tx:18.30 | experience is really past. Time has been readjusted to help us do | together what your separate pasts would hinder. You have gone past |
| Tx:18.31 | of God Himself, can you remain in darkness? You are coming home | together after a long and meaningless journey which you undertook |
| Tx:18.58 | the body, but not outside yourselves, to reach your shared Identity | together. Could this be outside you? Where God is not? Is He a body, |
| Tx:18.67 | A holy relationship is a means of saving time. One instant spent | together restores the universe to both of you. You are prepared. Now |
| Tx:18.68 | do not need this time. Time has been saved for you because you are | together. This is the special means this course is using to save you |
| Tx:18.82 | no more know God alone than He knows you without your brother. But | together you could no more be unaware of love than love could know |
| Tx:19.6 | Both cannot be | together nor perceived in the same place. To dedicate yourself to |
| Tx:19.7 | sickness, nor established remedy where sickness cannot be. They are | together, and when they are seen together, all attempts to keep both |
| Tx:19.7 | where sickness cannot be. They are together, and when they are seen | together, all attempts to keep both truth and illusion in the mind, |
| Tx:19.13 | where grace was laid for both of you. And be you healed by grace | together, that you may heal through faith. |
| Tx:19.14 | unto Himself and both of you. Lay faithlessness aside and come to it | together. There will you see the miracle of your relationship as it |
| Tx:19.14 | do, returning the glad tidings that it was done to you who stand | together before the altar from which they were sent forth. |
| Tx:19.55 | an honored guest. And in a holy instant, grace is said by everyone | together as they join in gentleness before the table of communion. |
| Tx:19.64 | relationship, I am there already. We will surmount all obstacles | together, for we stand within the gates and not outside. How easily |
| Tx:19.64 | the tired world! Can it be difficult for us to walk past barriers | together when you have joined the limitless? The end of guilt is in |
| Tx:19.66 | within the home you offered to my Father and to me. And we are there | together in the quiet communion in which the Father and the Son are |
| Tx:19.97 | Forget not that you came this far | together. And it was surely not the ego that led you here. No |
| Tx:19.98 | you here a while and tremble not. You will be ready. Let us join | together in a holy instant, here in this place where the purpose |
| Tx:19.98 | has led you. And let us join in faith that He Who brought us here | together will offer you the innocence you need and that you will |
| Tx:19.101 | of each other, for you will share in madness or in Heaven | together. And you will raise your eyes in faith together or not at |
| Tx:19.101 | madness or in Heaven together. And you will raise your eyes in faith | together or not at all. |
| Tx:19.106 | freedom that I gave the Holy Spirit for both of you. And be you free | together, as you offer to the Holy Spirit this same gift. And giving |
| Tx:19.106 | receive it of Him in return for what you gave. He leadeth you and me | together that we might meet here in this holy place and make the same |
| Tx:19.107 | here in the garden of seeming agony and death. So will we prepare | together the way unto the resurrection of God's Son and let him rise |
| Tx:19.108 | Together we will disappear into the Presence beyond the veil, not to | |
| Tx:19.110 | meaning lies in them. Beyond this they are meaningless. You stand | together, still without conviction they have a purpose. Yet it is |
| Tx:20.12 | refrain the Son of God was never crucified. Let us lift up our eyes | together, not in fear, but faith. And there will be no fear in us, |
| Tx:20.12 | share in quietness, and where we live in gentleness and peace as one | together. |
| Tx:20.15 | savior from his pain. And gladly will you walk the way of innocence | together, singing as you behold the open door of Heaven, and |
| Tx:20.38 | Each speaks in time of what is far beyond it. Two voices raised | together call to the hearts of everyone and let them beat as one. And |
| Tx:20.38 | which has the power to hold the unity of the Son of God | together. You give to one another for everyone, and in your gift is |
| Tx:20.52 | the illusion of reality. And so it seemed to have a home that held | together for a little while in time and vanished. For what could |
| Tx:20.54 | way to true relationships held gently open, through which you walk | together, leaving the body thankfully behind and resting in the |
| Tx:21.28 | truth is you were both created by a loving Father Who created you | together and as one. See what “proves” otherwise, and you deny your |
| Tx:21.54 | true effect of this same Source as is the answer, must therefore be | together and the same. |
| Tx:21.72 | know not their enemy, except they hate him. In hatred they have come | together but have not joined each other. For had they done so, hatred |
| Tx:22.1 | yourselves, so long enslaved. Rejoice whom God hath joined have come | together and need no longer look on sin apart. No two can look on sin |
| Tx:22.1 | and need no longer look on sin apart. No two can look on sin | together, for they could never see it in the same place and time. Sin |
| Tx:22.2 | where each one thinks the other has what he has not. They come | together, each to complete himself and rob the other. They stay until |
| Tx:22.15 | What is as like Him as a holy relationship? And what draws you | together draws Him to you. Here are His sweetness and His gentle |
| Tx:22.40 | hangs between you and the face of Christ. Let it be lifted! Raise it | together, for it is but a veil that stands between you. Either alone |
| Tx:22.41 | will each of you look to the other! How happy you will be to be | together after such a long and lonely journey where you walked alone. |
| Tx:22.43 | which seemed to rise and block their way before. This veil you lift | together opens the way to truth to more than you. Those who would let |
| Tx:22.44 | him alone. Such is the function of a holy relationship—to receive | together and give as you received. Standing before the veil, it still |
| Tx:22.47 | and the material of evil dreams are nothing. In truth you stand | together with nothing in between. God holds your hands, and what can |
| Tx:22.48 | this tiny mouse or everything that God created? You are not joined | together by this mouse but by the Will of God. And can a mouse betray |
| Tx:22.49 | is irresistible in truth. What, then, must happen when they come | together? Can the illusion of immovability be long defended from what |
| Tx:23.52 | where He would have you, and no illusion can attack the peace of God | together with His Son. |
| Tx:24.41 | and wove a picture out of nothing. For the parts do not belong | together, and the whole contributes nothing to the parts to give them |
| Tx:25.10 | itself. And so What is within this mind and does unite all things | together must be its Teacher. Yet must It use the language which this |
| Tx:25.22 | purpose, since He gave the same to both of you. His Will is brought | together as you join in will that you be made complete by offering |
| Tx:25.40 | him. Alone does neither have it. So must it remain useless to both. | Together, it will give to each an equal strength to save the other |
| Tx:26.19 | from time. Here is the meeting-place where thoughts are brought | together—where conflicting values meet and all illusions are laid |
| Tx:26.20 | because knowledge makes no attack upon perception. They are brought | together, and only one continues past the gate where Oneness is. |
| Tx:26.61 | The miracle is possible when cause and consequence are brought | together, not kept separate. The healing of effect without the cause |
| Tx:27.14 | two, I pardon you my hurt.” His pardon and your hurt cannot exist | together. One denies the other and must make it false. |
| Tx:27.52 | have a problem which is different from the rest. Yet they are solved | together. And their common answer shows the questions could not have |
| Tx:27.82 | a serious idea and possible of both accomplishment and real effects. | Together, we can laugh them both away and understand that time cannot |
| Tx:27.85 | He bids you bring each terrible effect to Him that you may look | together on its foolish cause and laugh with Him a while. You judge |
| Tx:28.22 | he dreams he gave his brother. And it is but this the dream has put | together and has offered him to show him that his wishes have been |
| Tx:28.51 | they but report. It is not they that hear and see, but you, who put | together every jagged piece, each senseless scrap and shred of |
| Tx:28.52 | bits of glass, a piece of wood, a thread or two perhaps, all put | together to attest its truth. Reality does not depend on this. There |
| Tx:30.1 | step. Each one will help a little every time it is attempted. And | together will these steps lead you from dreams of judgment to |
| Tx:30.64 | for you have enabled Him to rise from chains and go with you | together to His Father's house. |
| Tx:31.23 | walk with him, so neither leads nor follows. Thus it is a way you go | together, not alone. And in this choice is learning's outcome |
| Tx:31.25 | Together is your joint inheritance remembered and accepted by you | |
| W1:26.2 | thoughts are. Attack thoughts and invulnerability cannot be accepted | together. They contradict each other. |
| W1:31.2 | apply the same idea to your inner world. You will escape from both | together, for the inner is the cause of the outer. |
| W1:37.1 | world through your own holiness. Thus are you and the world blessed | together. No one loses; nothing is taken away from anyone; everyone |
| W1:42.9 | The idea for the day is a beginning step in bringing thoughts | together and teaching you that we are studying a unified thought |
| W1:44.1 | Creation and darkness cannot coexist, but light and life must go | together, being but different aspects of creation. |
| W1:73.3 | Did God create disaster for His Son? Creation is the will of Both | together. Would God create a world that kills Himself? |
| W1:79.8 | the problem so that the problem and the answer can be brought | together and we can be at peace. |
| W1:80.4 | that must be ours when the problem and the answer have been brought | together. The problem must be gone because God's answer cannot fail. |
| W1:82.2 | in me. My forgiveness is the means by which the world is healed, | together with myself. Let me, then, forgive the world that it may be |
| W1:85.2 | me in darkness and hide the light. Grievances and light cannot go | together, but light and vision must be joined for me to see. To see, |
| W1:90.5 | That is because I do not yet realize that God has placed the answer | together with the problem, so that they cannot be separated by time. |
| W1:91.1 | It is important to remember that miracles and vision necessarily go | together. This needs repeating and frequent repeating. It is a |
| W1:95.2 | into many warring parts, separate from God, and tenuously held | together by its erratic and capricious maker, to which you pray. It |
| W1:108.4 | appears to be in second place. Here it is understood that both occur | together, that the thought remain complete. And in this understanding |
| W1:109.11 | We rest | together here, for thus our rest is made complete, and what we give |
| W1:127.7 | Let us | together, then, be glad to give some time to God today and understand |
| W1:131.17 | all your searching here and all the seeking of the world, which ends | together as you pass beyond the door. |
| W1:137.16 | of all the foolish thoughts that ever were imagined. Now we come | together to make well all that was sick and offer blessing where |
| W1:R5.8 | the road by which all fears and doubts are overcome. We walk | together. I must understand uncertainty and pain, although I know |
| W1:R5.10 | Who sees your bitter need and knows the answer God has given Him. | Together we review these thoughts. Together we devote our time and |
| W1:R5.10 | the answer God has given Him. Together we review these thoughts. | Together we devote our time and effort to them. And together we will |
| W1:R5.10 | these thoughts. Together we devote our time and effort to them. And | together we will teach them to our brothers. God would not have |
| W1:R5.10 | am incomplete without your part in me. And as I am made whole, we go | together to our ancient home, prepared for us before time was and |
| W1:R5.11 | The Self from Which I call to you is but your own. To Him we go | together. Take your brother's hand, for this is not a way we walk |
| W1:187.10 | altar to one God, one Father, one Creator and one thought, we stand | together as one Son of God. Not separate from Him Who is our Source; |
| W1:192.8 | while he imprisons anyone? A jailer is not free, for he is bound | together with his prisoner. He must be sure that he does not escape, |
| W2:I.8 | start upon the final part of this one holy year which we have spent | together in the search for truth and God, Who is its one Creator. We |
| W2:221.2 | Now do we wait in quiet. God is here because we wait | together. I am sure that He will speak to you, and you will hear. |
| W2:225.2 | find that stillness now. The way is open. Now we follow it in peace | together. You have reached your hand to me, and I will never leave |
| W2:WS.4 | Let us come daily to this holy place and spend a while | together. Here we share our final dream. It is a dream in which there |
| W2:WS.4 | being born again in new perception. Night has gone, and we have come | together in the light. |
| W2:233.2 | Today we have one Guide to lead us on. And as we walk | together, we will give this day to Him with no reserve at all. This |
| W2:263.2 | seem pure to us that we may pass them by in innocence and walk | together to our Father's house as brothers and the holy Sons of God. |
| W2:271.1 | Christ's sight, the world and God's creation meet, and as they come | together, all perception disappears. His kindly sight redeems the |
| W2:295.1 | am saved, the world is saved with me. For all of us must be redeemed | together. Fear appears in many different forms, but love is one. |
| W2:299.1 | my Father, Who created it, acknowledges my holiness as His. Our will | together understands it. And our will together knows that it is so. |
| W2:299.1 | my holiness as His. Our will together understands it. And our will | together knows that it is so. |
| W2:WISC.5 | your willingness. Let us rejoice that we can do God's Will and join | together in its holy light. Behold, the Son of God is one in us, and |
| W2:310.2 | We spend this day | together, you and I. And all the world joins with us in our song of |
| W2:324.2 | and we cannot stray except an instant from His loving hand. We walk | together, for we follow Him. And it is He Who makes the ending sure |
| W2:WAI.2 | over now. Yet in the final days of this one year we gave to God | together, you and I, we found a single purpose that we shared. And |
| W2:WAI.4 | of God proclaim the world as sinless. Ours the minds which join | together as we bless the world. And from the oneness that we have |
| W2:FL.2 | already serving us as gracious guidance in the way to go. Let us | together follow in this way that truth points out to us. And let us |
| M:2.4 | seems to be now. And thus it is that pupil and teacher seem to come | together in the present, finding each other as if they had not met |
| M:2.5 | When pupil and teacher come | together, a teaching-learning situation begins. For the teacher is |
| M:2.5 | one who does the teaching. God's Teacher speaks to any two who join | together for learning purposes. The relationship is holy because of |
| M:3.1 | no accidents in salvation. Those who are to meet will meet, because | together they have the potential for a holy relationship. They are |
| M:3.2 | into an adult “by accident,” two students who happen to walk home | together. These are not chance encounters. Each of them has the |
| M:16.1 | with him will find him, so they can learn the lessons for the day | together. Not one is absent whom he needs; not one is sent without a |
token (1) | ||
| Tx:15.79 | in this world for your release. He must side with every sign or | token of your willingness to learn of Him what the truth must be. He |
told (51) | ||
| Tx:1.4 | of life. His Voice will direct you very specifically. You will be | told all you need to know. |
| Tx:1.34 | The disciples were specifically | told to be physicians of the Lord and to heal others. They were also |

| Tx:5.93 | asked to work out the plan of salvation yourselves because, as I | told you before, the remedy is not of your making. God Himself gave |
| Tx:5.93 | Will. I have made His plan perfectly explicit to you and have also | told you of your part in His plan and how urgent it is that you |
| Tx:5.94 | I have already | told you that whenever you are not wholly joyous it is because you |
| Tx:6.5 | I have already | told you that you can always call on me to share my decision and thus |

| Tx:11.1 | You have been | told not to make error real, and the way to do this is very simple. |

| Tx:12.23 | For this is a course on love because it is about you. You have been | told that your function in this world is healing, and your function |

| Tx:3.20 | Because their hearts are pure, the innocent defend | true perception instead of defending themselves against it. |
| Tx:3.24 | of the Atonement is perfectly apparent. The innocence of God is the | true state of mind of His Son. In this state, man's mind does see God |
| Tx:3.24 | is the only appropriate gift to His own altar, where nothing except | true perfection belongs. The understanding of the innocent is truth. |
| Tx:3.27 | is universal in its application that it becomes wisdom. Innocent (or | true) perception means that you never misperceive and always see |
| Tx:3.28 | (and this is really a redundant statement, because what is not | true cannot exist) right-minded seeing cannot see anything but |
| Tx:3.28 | is to withdraw your faith from them and invest it only in what is | true. |
| Tx:3.29 | they can only be frantic. If you are willing to validate what is | true in everything you perceive, you will make it true for you. Truth |
| Tx:3.29 | validate what is true in everything you perceive, you will make it | true for you. Truth overcomes all error. This means that if you |
| Tx:3.30 | therefore subject to fear or love. Misperceptions produce fear, and | true perceptions produce love. Neither produces certainty, because |
| Tx:3.31 | True perception is the basis for knowledge, but knowing is the | |
| Tx:3.40 | into himself. He became a perceiver rather than a creator in the | true sense. Consciousness is correctly identified as the domain of |
| Tx:3.49 | perception induces sane choosing. The Atonement was an act based on | true perception. I cannot choose for you, but I can help you make |
| Tx:3.52 | Anything that is made is made for a specific purpose and has no | true generalizability. When you make something to fill a perceived |
| Tx:3.58 | becomes impossible. Truth can only be known. All of it is equally | true, and knowing any part of it is to know all of it. Only |
| Tx:3.62 | the belief that what he judged against has no effect. This cannot be | true unless he also believes that what he judged against does not |
| Tx:3.67 | because He knows that it makes them unhappy. Souls were given their | true Authorship, but men preferred to be anonymous when they chose to |
| Tx:3.67 | has been used for great cruelty because, being uncertain of their | true Authorship, men believe that their creation was anonymous. This |
| Tx:3.68 | they created themselves. At least it acknowledges the fact that some | true authorship is necessary for existence. |
| Tx:3.77 | but he cannot do more than believe it. He cannot make it | true. And, as we said before, when you finally perceive correctly, |
| Tx:3.80 | cut off and will wither away. Be glad! The light will shine from the | true Foundation of Life, and your own thought system will stand |
| Tx:4.9 | you how their thought system[s] arose. When I remind you of your | true creation, your egos cannot but respond with fear. |
| Tx:4.28 | must be perceived as painful, even though this is anything but | true. Babies scream in rage if you take away a knife or a scissors, |
| Tx:4.32 | representing the ego's need to confirm itself. This is as | true of bodily appetites as it is of the so-called “higher” ego |
| Tx:4.38 | A hypothesis is either false or | true, to be accepted or rejected accordingly. If it is shown to be |
| Tx:4.38 | true, to be accepted or rejected accordingly. If it is shown to be | true, it becomes a fact, after which no one attempts to evaluate it |
| Tx:4.47 | own Guide and therefore need guidance. My role is to separate the | true from the false in your unconscious so it can break through the |
| Tx:4.52 | you have made, but I will neither honor it nor love it unless it is | true. |
| Tx:4.55 | mind. Who but the insane would undertake to believe what is not | true and then protect this belief at the cost of truth? |
| Tx:4.65 | but say, “I will not look there because I know these images are not | true.” Then let the Holy One shine on you in peace, knowing that this |
| Tx:4.82 | Immortality is a constant state. It is as | true now as it ever was or ever will be because it implies no change |
| Tx:4.91 | to insist on a “collaborative venture.” This does not go against the | true spirit of meditation; it is inherent in it. Meditation is a |
| Tx:4.96 | contrast the Soul reacts in the same way to everything it knows is | true and does not respond at all to anything else. Nor does it make |
| Tx:4.96 | to anything else. Nor does it make any attempt to establish what is | true. It knows that what is true is everything that God created. It |
| Tx:4.96 | it make any attempt to establish what is true. It knows that what is | true is everything that God created. It is in complete and direct |
| Tx:4.105 | is in great need of rehabilitation itself. All symptoms of hurt need | true helpfulness, and whenever they are met with this, the mind that |
| Tx:5.27 | made by giving and is therefore the one act of mind that resembles | true creation. You understand the role of “models” in the learning |
| Tx:5.36 | reminds you is in direct opposition to the ego's notions, because | true and false perceptions are themselves opposed. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:5.46 | not mean that you can safely fail to acknowledge anything that is | true. However, the Holy Spirit will not fail to help you reinterpret |
| Tx:5.46 | you perceive as fearful and teach you that only what is loving is | true. Truth is beyond your ability to destroy but entirely within |
| Tx:5.79 | and remember also that we said, “Do not look there.” It is still | true that “where you look to find yourself is up to you.” The Higher |
| Tx:6.10 | what is already in them. God placed it there Himself, and so it is | true forever. I believed in it and therefore made it forever true for |
| Tx:6.10 | it is true forever. I believed in it and therefore made it forever | true for me. Help me to teach it to our brothers in the name of the |
| Tx:6.10 | in the name of the Kingdom of God, but first believe that it is | true for you, or you will teach amiss. |
| Tx:6.15 | of the Holy Spirit can be justified. I undertook to show this was | true in a very extreme case merely because it would serve as a good |
| Tx:6.30 | is total inclusion. You cannot change it now or ever. It is forever | true. It is not a belief but a fact. Anything that God create[s] is |
| Tx:6.30 | It is not a belief but a fact. Anything that God create[s] is as | true as He is. Its truth lies only in its perfect inclusion in Him, |
| Tx:6.33 | the mind of the thinker from which they [extend] outward. This is as | true of God's thinking as it is of yours. Because your minds are |
| Tx:6.34 | He uses everything for good, but He does not believe in what is not | true. Since the Holy Spirit is in your minds, your minds must also be |
| Tx:6.34 | in your minds, your minds must also be able to believe only what is | true. The Holy Spirit can speak only for this because he speaks for |
| Tx:6.36 | only the Holy Spirit is conflict-free. He perceives only what is | true in your mind and extends outward only to what is true in other |
| Tx:6.36 | only what is true in your mind and extends outward only to what is | true in other minds. |
| Tx:6.40 | it, but through the ego you can hear and teach and learn what is not | true. From this, which you have made, you have taught yourselves to |
| Tx:6.41 | it can you learn it. “As you teach, so will you learn.” If that is | true, and it is true indeed, you must never forget that what you |
| Tx:6.41 | it. “As you teach, so will you learn.” If that is true, and it is | true indeed, you must never forget that what you teach is teaching |
| Tx:6.51 | will have great reality for you, because they are beautiful and | true. In the Kingdom, where you are and what you are is perfectly |
| Tx:6.52 | You are as certain as God because you are as | true as He is, but what was once quite certain in your minds has |
| Tx:6.53 | Abilities must be developed, or you cannot use them. This is not | true of anything that God created, but it is the kindest solution |
| Tx:6.55 | to other laws is also possible, however, not because the laws are | true, but because you made them. What would be gained if God proved |
| Tx:6.57 | because you had already taught wrongly, having believed what was not | true. You did not believe in your own perfection. Could God teach you |
| Tx:6.59 | from harm so much as what you need to learn to have joy. This is | true even of the world's teachers. Consider the confusion a child |
| Tx:6.71 | on what you believe you are. If the center of the thought system is | true, only truth extends from it. But if a lie is at its center, only |
| Tx:6.73 | is being taught to react to both as if what he does believe is not | true. |
| Tx:6.76 | There can be no conflict between sanity and insanity. Only one is | true, and therefore only one is real. The ego tries to persuade you |
| Tx:6.76 | tries to persuade you that it is up to you to decide which voice is | true, but the Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created by God, |
| Tx:6.82 | would share it. In your mind, and your mind only, He sorts out the | true from the false and teaches you to judge every thought that you |
| Tx:6.95 | exerted great effort to preserve what you made because it was not | true. Therefore, you must now turn your effort against it. Only this |
| Tx:6.95 | are. This recognition is wholly without effort since it is already | true and needs no protection. It is in the perfect safety of God. |
| Tx:7.6 | last step in the reawakening of knowledge is taken by God. This is | true, but it is hard to explain in words because words are symbols, |
| Tx:7.6 | to explain in words because words are symbols, and nothing that is | true needs to be explained. However, the Holy Spirit has the task of |
| Tx:7.7 | created. The “last step” that God [was said to] take was therefore | true in the beginning, is true now, and will be true forever. |
| Tx:7.7 | that God [was said to] take was therefore true in the beginning, is | true now, and will be true forever. |
| Tx:7.7 | take was therefore true in the beginning, is true now, and will be | true forever. |
| Tx:7.11 | underlies the defense of freedom is perfectly valid. Because it is | true, it should not be fought for, but it should be sided with. |
| Tx:7.12 | freedom believe that its outcome will hurt them, which cannot be | true. But those who are for freedom, even if they are misguided in |
| Tx:7.12 | defend it, are siding with the one thing in this world which is | true. Whenever anyone can listen fairly to both sides of any issue, |
| Tx:7.19 | be used theoretically, but it has no application practically. It is | true that if you put three apples on the table and then take them |
| Tx:7.19 | then take them away, the three apples are not there. But it is not | true that the table is now minus three apples. If there is nothing on |
| Tx:7.20 | and you must assume the former, because if the latter were | true, the subject would not do anything. Given variable motivation, |
| Tx:7.28 | are possible, and therefore you have accepted the impossible as | true. How is that different from saying that you are perceiving |
| Tx:7.29 | on it. As long as you believe that you can attend to what is not | true, you are accepting conflict as your choice. Is it really a |
| Tx:7.32 | is also a science, because it obeys the laws of God, Whose laws are | true. Because they are true, they are perfectly dependable and |
| Tx:7.32 | it obeys the laws of God, Whose laws are true. Because they are | true, they are perfectly dependable and therefore universal in |
| Tx:7.52 | are you who perceive only this, because you perceive only what is | true. Come therefore unto me and learn of the truth in you. The mind |
| Tx:7.53 | it is acceptable to Him and therefore to His Sons. This is the | true communion of the Spirit, Who sees the altar of God in everyone |
| Tx:7.61 | place at all in peace. It is necessary against beliefs which are not | true and would never have been called upon by the Holy Spirit if you |
| Tx:7.61 | You cannot deny that, when you believe something, you have made it | true for you. |
| Tx:7.63 | ego wants no part of truth, because the truth is that the ego is not | true. If truth is total, the untrue cannot exist. Commitment to |
| Tx:7.63 | requires vigilance only as long as you do not recognize what is | true.] While you believe that two totally contradictory thought |
| Tx:7.64 | ego believes this totally, being fully committed to it. It is not | true. The ego therefore is totally committed to untruth, perceiving |
| Tx:7.82 | said that without projection there can be no anger, but it is also | true that without projection there can be no love. Projection is a |
| Tx:7.89 | beyond belief, because truth is beyond belief, and His perception is | true. The ego can be completely forgotten at any time, because it was |
| Tx:7.90 | be alone, thus dispelling the idea of separation and affirming your | true identification with the whole Kingdom as literally part of you. |
| Tx:7.95 | to add to reality, but no one would claim that what it adds is | true. Insanity is therefore the non-extension of truth, which blocks |
| Tx:7.97 | which belong in it, you are describing what you do not know. That is | true in a sense, but no more true than your failure to acknowledge |
| Tx:7.97 | what you do not know. That is true in a sense, but no more | true than your failure to acknowledge the whole result of the ego's |
| Tx:7.100 | it. The problem is not whether what the Holy Spirit says is | true, but whether you want to listen to what He says. |
| Tx:8.23 | has accepted. Wrong decisions have no power because they are not | true. The imprisonment which they seem to produce is no more true |
| Tx:8.23 | are not true. The imprisonment which they seem to produce is no more | true than they are. |
| Tx:8.32 | Father. This is the only lesson I came to teach, knowing that it is | true. |
| Tx:8.34 | with him. When you imprison yourself, you are losing sight of your | true identification with me and with the Father. Your identification |
| Tx:8.41 | journey because it has none, [and] the journey is the way to what is | true. Leave all deception behind and reach beyond all attempts of the |
| Tx:8.42 | behold it. You cannot behold the world and know God. Only one is | true. |
| Tx:8.43 | I am come to tell you that the choice of which is | true is not yours. If it were, you would have destroyed yourselves. |
| Tx:8.45 | gift which is eternal, and therefore there is no other gift which is | true. |
| Tx:8.63 | as a separate entity cannot but foster illness because it is not | true. A medium of communication will lose its usefulness if it is |
| Tx:8.67 | yourself, but condemnation is not of God. Therefore, it is not | true. No more are any of the results of your condemnation. When you |
| Tx:8.68 | Do not allow yourselves to suffer from the results of what is not | true. Free your minds from the belief that this is possible. In its |
| Tx:8.69 | what it believes a thing is for. This is because it is incapable of | true generalizations and equates what it sees with the function it |
| Tx:8.70 | define the part, but the part does not define the whole. This is as | true of knowledge as it is of perception. The reason to know in part |
| Tx:8.75 | It is still | true that the body has no function of itself, because it is not an |
| Tx:8.75 | however, establishes it as an end because as such it will lose its | true function. This is the purpose of everything the ego does. Its |
| Tx:8.75 | premises on which the ego's interpretation of the body rests are | true. Specifically, these are that the body is for attack and that |
| Tx:8.76 | considering them. The function of truth is to collect data which are | true. There is no point in trying to make sense out of meaningless |
| Tx:8.77 | know anything, we said the one thing about the ego that is wholly | true. But there is a corollary; if knowledge is being and the ego has |
| Tx:8.78 | the distorting power of something you want, even if it is not | true? You have had many instances of how what you want can distort |
| Tx:8.84 | His function is to distinguish only between the false and the | true, replacing the false with the true. |
| Tx:8.84 | only between the false and the true, replacing the false with the | true. |
| Tx:8.93 | you. When we said that the Holy Spirit's function is to sort out the | true from the false in your unconscious, we meant that He has the |
| Tx:8.98 | abandonment or retaliation. Many people seek both, but it is still | true that they do not want them. Can you ask the Holy Spirit for |
| Tx:8.107 | has experienced what appears to be failure. This is not only | true in connection with specific things which might be harmful but |
| Tx:8.109 | The Bible emphasizes that all prayers are answered, and this must be | true if no effort is wasted. The very fact that one has asked the |
| Tx:8.109 | yet heard. I assure you that they are waiting for you. It is indeed | true that no effort is wasted. |
| Tx:8.110 | the Holy Spirit truly and doubt your brother? Believe his words are | true because of the truth which is in him. You will unite with the |
| Tx:8.110 | in him. You will unite with the truth in him, and his words will be | true. As you hear him, you will hear me. Listening to truth is the |
| Tx:8.111 | which does know. This light can shine into yours, making his words | true and making you able to hear them. His words are the Holy |
| Tx:9.3 | because the Holy Spirit does not perceive his errors. This must be | true if there is no communication at all between the ego and the Holy |
| Tx:9.9 | upon it, for you will believe what your perception holds. Accept as | true only what your brother is if you would know yourself. Perceive |
| Tx:9.17 | It is not | true that you do not know the guide is insane. You know it because I |
| Tx:9.19 | can be pleasant or fearful, pretty or ugly, but no one calls them | true. Children may believe them, and so for a while the tales are |
| Tx:9.19 | true. Children may believe them, and so for a while the tales are | true for them. Yet when reality dawns, the fantasies are gone. |
| Tx:9.29 | convincing than its words. They will convince you that the words are | true. By following the right Guide you will learn the simplest of all |
| Tx:9.41 | evaluations of yourself in your minds, and they cannot both be | true. You do not yet realize how completely different these |
| Tx:9.44 | ego's thought system merely because He knows its foundation is not | true. Therefore, nothing that arises from it means anything. The Holy |
| Tx:9.44 | of where it comes from. If it comes from God, He knows it to be | true. If it does not, He knows that it is meaningless. |
| Tx:9.53 | want the ego. Your grandeur is God's answer to the ego because it is | true. Littleness and grandeur cannot co-exist, nor is it possible for |
| Tx:9.54 | because grandeur is truth. Truth does not vacillate; it is always | true. When grandeur slips away from you, you have replaced it with |
| Tx:9.54 | the belief in grandiosity. Yet it must be insane because it is not | true. Your grandeur will never deceive you, but your illusions always |
| Tx:9.55 | will not produce miracles and therefore will deprive you of your | true witnesses to your reality. Truth is not obscure nor hidden, but |
| Tx:9.58 | It is an exalted answer because of its Source, but the Source is | true and so is Its answer. Listen and do not question what you hear, |
| Tx:9.80 | I will heal you merely because I have only one message, and it is | true. Your faith in it will make you whole when you have faith in me. |
| Tx:9.96 | you are not of yourselves. If you were, what you have made would be | true, and you could never escape. |
| Tx:9.106 | choice, which is not of God, will remain with you. While this is not | true in eternity, it is true in time, so that while time lasts in |
| Tx:9.106 | God, will remain with you. While this is not true in eternity, it is | true in time, so that while time lasts in your minds, there will be |
| Tx:10.1 | evidence on both sides fairly, you will realize that this must be | true. Neither God nor the ego proposes a partial thought system. Each |
| Tx:10.4 | you. You will not take this journey alone. I will lead you to your | true Father, Who hath need of you as I have. Will you not answer the |
| Tx:10.24 | not will to be alone Himself? And if your will is His, it cannot be | true of you because it is not true of Him. Oh, my children, if you |
| Tx:10.24 | And if your will is His, it cannot be true of you because it is not | true of Him. Oh, my children, if you knew what God wills for you, |
| Tx:10.24 | would be complete! And what He wills has happened, for it was always | true. |
| Tx:10.43 | without fear, for it cannot have any effects if its source is not | true. Fear becomes more obviously inappropriate if one recognizes the |
| Tx:10.44 | that their source is not natural, being out of accord with your | true nature. We once said that to will contrary to God is wishful |
| Tx:10.50 | distinguish the possible from the impossible and the false from the | true. According to the ego's teaching, its goal can be accomplished, |
| Tx:10.54 | obvious. If consistent truth is meaningless, inconsistency must be | true if truth has meaning. Holding error clearly in mind and |
| Tx:10.57 | that His Son is unworthy, for nothing can prove that a lie is | true. What you see of His Son through the eyes of the ego is a |
| Tx:10.58 | you perceive is a witness to the thought system you want to be | true. Every brother has the power to release you if you will to be |
| Tx:10.62 | been accomplished, and it has been accomplished in you. This is as | true now as it will ever be, for the resurrection is the Will of God, |
| Tx:10.69 | speaks of a new Heaven and a new earth, yet this cannot be literally | true, for the eternal are not re-created. To perceive anew is merely |
| Tx:10.70 | both good and evil, you are accepting both the false and the | true and making no distinction between them. |
| Tx:10.71 | confusing illusion and reality. For perceptions cannot be partly | true. If you believe in truth and illusion, you cannot tell which is |
| Tx:10.71 | true. If you believe in truth and illusion, you cannot tell which is | true. To establish your personal autonomy, you tried to create unlike |
| Tx:10.71 | of being unlike Him. Yet everything in what you have made that is | true is like Him. Only this is the real world, and perceiving only |
| Tx:10.73 | salvation because it is the recognition that reality is only what is | true. |
| Tx:10.74 | which, in the end, teaches nothing more than that only reality is | true is necessary. But do you believe it? When you have perceived the |
| Tx:10.74 | will leave you only an instant to realize that this judgment is | true. |
| Tx:10.75 | you made will be forgotten, the good and the bad, the false and the | true. For as Heaven and earth become one, even the real world will |
| Tx:10.76 | meaning of anything you perceive. Not one thought you hold is wholly | true. The recognition of this is your firm beginning. You are not |
| Tx:11.1 | believe in error, you would have to make it real because it is not | true. But truth is real in its own right, and to believe in truth, |
| Tx:11.3 | it requires no effort at all on your part. Every loving thought is | true. Everything else is an appeal for healing and help. That is what |
| Tx:11.7 | are meaningless in your divided state, His remain consistently | true. He gives them to you because they are for you. Do not attempt |
| Tx:11.13 | interpreted, attests to your eternal knowledge that union is | true. |
| Tx:11.41 | life. For death is not your Father's Will nor yours, and whatever is | true is the Will of the Father. You pay no price for life, for that |
| Tx:11.69 | there. But do not then believe that the witnesses for opposition are | true, for they attest only to your decision about reality, returning |
| Tx:11.76 | death, remember that I did not die. You will realize that this is | true when you look within and see me. Would I have overcome death for |
| Tx:11.79 | When you made what is not | true visible, what is true became invisible. Yet it cannot be |
| Tx:11.79 | When you made what is not true visible, what is | true became invisible. Yet it cannot be invisible in itself, for the |
| Tx:11.92 | him, for although he believes in it, the Holy Spirit knows it is not | true. The Holy Spirit stands at the end of time, where you must be |
| Tx:11.99 | been. As He looks upon the guiltless Son of God, he knows this is | true. And being true for you, you cannot attack yourself, for without |
| Tx:11.99 | upon the guiltless Son of God, he knows this is true. And being | true for you, you cannot attack yourself, for without guilt, attack |
| Tx:12.39 | His sane answer tells you that what you have offered yourself is not | true, but His offering to you has never changed. You who know not |
| Tx:12.50 | upon the present, for it holds the only things that are forever | true. All healing lies within it because its continuity is real. It |
| Tx:12.60 | of one is possible because you have denied the other. Both are not | true, yet either one will seem as real to you as the amount to which |
| Tx:12.63 | you see? All vision starts with the perceiver who judges what is | true and what is false. And what he judges false he does not see. You |
| Tx:12.66 | way that leads you to remembrance of this one thing that is wholly | true and wholly yours. For all else you have lent yourself in time, |
| Tx:12.67 | of nightmares for the happy dreams of love. In these lie your | true perceptions, for the Holy Spirit corrects the world of dreams, |
| Tx:13.5 | is one forever. Every miracle you offer to the Son of God is but the | true perception of one aspect of the whole. Though every aspect is |
| Tx:13.14 | is the means by which the Holy Spirit can separate the false and the | true, which you have accepted into your minds without distinction. |
| Tx:13.14 | you cannot value one without the other, and guilt has become as | true for you as innocence. You do not believe the Son of God is |
| Tx:13.16 | of Atonement for all your brothers. For so you learn that it is | true for you. Remember always that it is impossible to condemn the |
| Tx:13.20 | illusion that the source, from which attention is diverted, must be | true and must be fearful, or you would not have displaced the guilt |
| Tx:13.28 | you do not remember how much you love Him. Yet it is forever | true. In shining peace within you is the perfect purity in which you |
| Tx:13.30 | there is no love apart from His. Until you recognize that this is | true, you will have no idea what love is like. No one who condemns a |
| Tx:13.38 | the difference for you, allowing Him to demonstrate which must be | true. He has perfect faith in your final judgment because He knows |
| Tx:13.45 | for you everything you have learned that teaches you what is not | true must be reconciled with truth. This is the reconciliation which |
| Tx:13.46 | you and by you in return. For how can you remember what was never | true or not remember what has always been? It is this reconciliation |
| Tx:13.52 | leads you not goes nowhere. Anything you deny which He knows to be | true, you have denied yourself, and He must therefore teach you not |
| Tx:13.55 | can be precious and that you can learn how to make the untrue | true. |
| Tx:13.56 | His lesson in simplicity with the fundamental teaching that truth is | true. This is the hardest lesson you will ever learn, and in the end |
| Tx:13.56 | are you less inclined to listen to. The contrast between what is | true and what is not is perfectly apparent, yet you do not see it. |
| Tx:13.57 | this the Holy Spirit sees and teaches simply that all this is not | true. To these unhappy learners who would teach themselves nothing |
| Tx:13.58 | The truth is | true. Nothing else matters, nothing else is real, and everything |
| Tx:13.59 | you, the Holy Spirit did not make truth. Like God, He knows it to be | true. He brings the light of truth into the darkness and lets it |
| Tx:13.60 | When you teach anyone that truth is | true, you learn it with him. And so you learn that what seemed |
| Tx:13.61 | lessons that come quickly on the firm foundation that truth is | true. For what is builded there is true and built on truth. The |
| Tx:13.61 | the firm foundation that truth is true. For what is builded there is | true and built on truth. The universe of learning will open up before |
| Tx:13.62 | from the past and open up the way to freedom for you. For truth is | true. What else could ever be or ever was? This simple lesson holds |
| Tx:13.63 | in Him with everything. Can he sing the dirge of sorrow when this is | true? |
| Tx:13.68 | they are opposites which cannot be reconciled and cannot both be | true. You are guilty or guiltless, bound or free, happy or unhappy. |
| Tx:13.73 | you because of the concept of decision which led to it. It is not | true that you can make decisions by yourself or for yourself alone. |
| Tx:13.76 | wholly pure. Do not decide against it, for being of Him, it must be | true. Peace abides in every mind that quietly accepts the plan which |
| Tx:14.3 | it and thus denied Heaven to itself. Atonement teaches you the | true condition of the Son of God. It does not teach you what you are |
| Tx:14.6 | it and learns it, he will suffer the pain of dim awareness that his | true function remains unfulfilled in him. The burden of guilt is |
| Tx:14.19 | Death yields to life simply because destruction is not | true. The light of guiltlessness shines guilt away because, when they |
| Tx:14.22 | out all that has meaning, dropping off the rest and offering your | true communication to those who would communicate as truly with you. |
| Tx:14.26 | the unknowing that they know. From their point of view, it is not | true. Yet it is true because God knows it. These are clearly opposite |
| Tx:14.26 | that they know. From their point of view, it is not true. Yet it is | true because God knows it. These are clearly opposite viewpoints of |
| Tx:14.39 | in light is not attacked. It merely vanishes because it is not | true. Different realities are meaningless, for reality must be one. |
| Tx:14.47 | you seem to live in is a world of limits. In this world, it is not | true that anything without order of difficulty can occur. The |
| Tx:14.49 | wiser or more productive and valuable than others. And this is | true about the thoughts which cross the mind of those who think they |
| Tx:14.54 | defend its lack of content. The fact of union tells them it is not | true. |
| Tx:14.57 | The miracle is the recognition that this is | true. Where there is love, your brother must give it to you because |
| Tx:14.58 | you is but your learning of the false and your attempts to undo the | true. |
| Tx:14.63 | test, as sure as God, by which to recognize if what you learned is | true. If you are wholly free of fear of any kind, and if all those |
| Tx:14.63 | that you have learned God's lesson and not yours. Unless all this is | true, there are dark lessons in your minds which hurt and hinder you |
| Tx:15.24 | at first, but you will learn to love it when you realize that it is | true and constitutes a tribute to your power. You who have sought and |
| Tx:16.5 | True empathy is of Him Who knows what it is. You will learn His | |
| Tx:16.14 | you, and so you are unwilling to believe that what has happened is | true. But can you really believe that all that has happened, even |
| Tx:16.16 | His witnesses, who bring you the glad tidings He has come. It is | true, just as you fear, that to acknowledge Him is to deny all that |
| Tx:16.16 | Him is to deny all that you think you know. But it was never | true. What gain is there to you in clinging to it and denying the |
| Tx:16.26 | to strengthen your faith in what you taught. For what you taught is | true. Alone you stand outside your teaching and apart from it. But |
| Tx:16.35 | you have built against it. It is not necessary to seek for what is | true, but it is necessary to seek for what is false. Every illusion |
| Tx:16.36 | Recognize this, for it is | true, and truth must be recognized if it is to be distinguished from |
| Tx:16.45 | and everything here takes a direction exactly opposite of what is | true. In Heaven, where the meaning of love is known, love is the same |
| Tx:16.56 | the simple fact that illusions are not fearful because they are not | true. They but seem to be fearful to the extent to which you fail to |
| Tx:16.56 | you will fail to do this to the extent to which you want them to be | true. And to the same extent you are denying truth, and so are making |
| Tx:16.78 | the holy instant, this is done for you in time to bring to you the | true condition of Heaven. |
| Tx:16.81 | Forgive us our illusions, Father, and help us to accept our | true relationship with You in which there are no illusions and where |
| Tx:17.5 | you. There is no order in reality because everything there is | true. |
| Tx:17.23 | relationship the Holy Spirit sees because He knows that only this is | true. You have made the relationship unreal and therefore unholy by |
| Tx:17.25 | never choose except between God and the ego. Thought systems are but | true or false, and all their attributes come simply from what they |
| Tx:17.25 | come simply from what they are. Only the Thoughts of God are | true. And all that follows from them comes from what they are and is |
| Tx:17.25 | And all that follows from them comes from what they are and is as | true as is the holy Source from which they came. |
| Tx:17.42 | will experience again the meaning of relationship and know it to be | true. Let us ascend in peace together to the Father by giving Him |
| Tx:17.51 | eternity? For you have chosen but the goal of God from which your | true intent was never absent. |
| Tx:17.60 | closer to the Holy Spirit's sorting out of truth and falsity. The | true becomes what can be used to meet the goal. The false becomes the |
| Tx:17.77 | believing that the “something else” produced it. This was never | true. For what the “something else” produced was sorrow and |
| Tx:18.15 | conflicting wishes, and therefore they have no concern with what is | true. They are the best example you could have of how perception can |
| Tx:18.19 | It is the means by which you try to make your sleeping dreams come | true. From this you do not awaken. The special relationship] is your |
| Tx:18.44 | Happy dreams come | true, not because they are dreams, but only because they are happy. |
| Tx:18.86 | it. And these messages bear witness to this world, pronouncing it as | true. For you sent forth these messengers to bring this back to you. |
| Tx:19.8 | Truth and illusion have no connection. This will remain forever | true, however much you seek to connect them. But illusions are always |
| Tx:19.21 | “holy” concept in the ego's system—lovely and powerful, wholly | true, and necessarily protected with every defense at its disposal. |
| Tx:19.26 | respect and honoring its enormity. [What must be punished must be | true. And what is true must be eternal and will be repeated |
| Tx:19.26 | its enormity. [What must be punished must be true. And what is | true must be eternal and will be repeated endlessly.] For what you |
| Tx:19.30 | your perception is unchangeable and that the mind must accept as | true what it is told through it. If it does not obey, the mind is |
| Tx:19.75 | Hear not its madness, and believe not the impossible is | true. Forget not that the ego has dedicated the body to the goal of |
| Tx:19.83 | purpose. As you look upon it, so will it seem to be. Death, were it | true, would be the final and complete disruption of communication |
| Tx:20.16 | impaired condition are adjustments necessary because they are not | true. Who need adjust to truth, which calls on only what he is, to |
| Tx:20.24 | and you have given it power to adjust the world to make its answer | true. You asked this puff of madness for the meaning of your unholy |
| Tx:20.28 | everything to God, Who has already given and received all that is | true. The untrue He has neither received nor given. |
| Tx:20.54 | The holy relationship reflects the | true relationship the Son of God has with his Father in reality. The |
| Tx:20.54 | in gladness for the holy one of safe return. Here is the way to | true relationships held gently open, through which you walk together, |
| Tx:20.57 | remains with you. Yet what is that to those who have been given one | true relationship beyond the body? Can they be long held back from |
| Tx:20.61 | result of letting the effects of sin be lifted so what was always | true is recognized. To see a sinless body is impossible, for holiness |
| Tx:20.75 | adjusts to sin and seems to witness to its reality. It still is | true that nothing is without. Yet upon nothing are all projections |
| Tx:21.13 | mind by which the crucifixion is changed to resurrection. And being | true, it is so simple that it cannot fail to be completely |
| Tx:21.19 | to you, you listened and convinced yourself that what it saw was | true. You did this to yourself. See only this, and you will also see |
| Tx:21.54 | you but there, where this same answer is? Your Identity, as much a | true effect of this same Source as is the answer, must therefore be |
| Tx:22.7 | no reason not to listen nor to suspect that what it tells you is not | true. Reason would tell you it cannot be true because you do not |
| Tx:22.7 | what it tells you is not true. Reason would tell you it cannot be | true because you do not understand it. God has no secrets. He does |
| Tx:22.20 | way, for reason sees the source of an idea as what will make it | true or false. This must be so if the idea is like its source. |
| Tx:22.22 | course will be believed entirely or not at all. For it is wholly | true or wholly false and cannot be but partially believed. And you |
| Tx:22.24 | mind, be different from it, and in opposition to it. If this were | true, thoughts would not be the mind's extensions but its enemies. |
| Tx:22.25 | you made has been your own. Are you not glad to learn it is not | true? Is it not welcome news to hear not one of the illusions that |
| Tx:22.27 | be separate. Its will has no exceptions, and what it wills is | true. Every illusion brought to its forgiveness is gently overlooked |
| Tx:22.33 | the wall that stands between you and the truth, is wholly | true. Yet how can sight which stops at nothingness as if it were a |
| Tx:22.35 | and so they can deceive. You can change form because it is not | true. It could not be reality, because it can be changed. Reason will |
| Tx:22.45 | tell you that they contradict reality. They go against what must be | true. The opposition comes from them and not reality. Reality opposes |
| Tx:22.63 | never both. The only question to be answered to decide which must be | true is whether you are different. From the position of what you |
| Tx:22.63 | experiences more in line with truth to teach you what is natural and | true. |
| Tx:22.65 | truth decide if you be different or the same and teach you which is | true. |
| Tx:23.11 | Could nature possibly establish this and make it | true? Nor is it up to you to say what shall be part of you and what |
| Tx:23.12 | from each other in the belief the one which conquers will be | true. There is no conflict between them and the truth. Nor are they |
| Tx:23.12 | and the truth. Nor are they different from each other. Both are not | true. And so it matters not what form they take. What made them is |
| Tx:23.15 | His home. And you who are beloved of Him are no illusions, being as | true and holy as Himself. |
| Tx:23.16 | place where love abides, protecting you from everything that is not | true. You dwell in peace as limitless as its Creator, and everything |
| Tx:23.17 | are different. And they do battle only to establish which form is | true. |
| Tx:23.20 | is a hierarchy of illusions; some are more valuable and therefore | true. Each one establishes this for himself and makes it true by his |
| Tx:23.20 | therefore true. Each one establishes this for himself and makes it | true by his attack on what another values. And this is justified |
| Tx:23.27 | the fourth law of chaos, which, if the others are accepted, must be | true. This seeming law is the belief you have what you have taken. By |
| Tx:23.32 | this is what it is. What protects madness is the belief that it is | true. It is the function of insanity to take the place of truth. It |
| Tx:23.32 | a reversal, completely turned around, with madness sanity, illusions | true, attack a kindness, hatred love and murder benediction, is the |
| Tx:23.34 | form and disregard of content. No one who thinks that one of them is | true sees what it says. Some forms it takes seem to have meaning, and |
| Tx:23.36 | You would maintain and think it | true that you do not believe these senseless laws nor act upon them. |
| Tx:23.37 | barrier to Heaven. Illusions are but forms. Their content is never | true. |
| Tx:23.38 | laws completely, offering a certain witness that these laws are | true. The seeming gentler forms of the attack are no less certain in |
| Tx:23.41 | Is it not | true you do not recognize some of the forms attack can take? If it is |
| Tx:23.41 | you do not recognize some of the forms attack can take? If it is | true attack in any form will hurt you and will do so just as much as |
| Tx:23.47 | attack, and no illusion in any form stalks Heaven. Heaven is wholly | true. No difference enters, and what is all the same cannot conflict. |
| Tx:23.48 | different? Murder and love are incompatible. Yet if they both are | true, then must they be the same and indistinguishable from one |
| Tx:24.40 | Specialness, too, takes joy in what it sees, although it is not | true. Yet what you seek for is a source of joy as you conceive it. |
| Tx:24.40 | you seek for is a source of joy as you conceive it. What you wish is | true for you. Nor is it possible that you can wish for something and |
| Tx:24.64 | given you to see his holiness because it is the truth. And what is | true in him must be as true in you. |
| Tx:24.64 | holiness because it is the truth. And what is true in him must be as | true in you. |
| Tx:24.66 | Only the purpose that you see in it has meaning, and if that is | true, its safety rests secure. If not, it has no purpose and is means |
| Tx:24.67 | means and end are one, and one with Him. This is the state of | true creation, found not within time, but in eternity. To no one here |
| Tx:24.68 | end unite as one, nor does this one have any end at all. All this is | true, and yet it has no meaning to anyone who still retains one |
| Tx:24.69 | It is the outward picture of a wish—an image that you wanted to be | true. |
| Tx:24.70 | that you want to be yourself. It is the means to make your wish come | true. It gives the eyes with which you look on it, the hands that |
| Tx:25.14 | Is it not also | true that you have found some hope apart from this—some glimmering, |
| Tx:25.37 | unless the other were the truth, for each attests the other must be | true. |
| Tx:25.52 | at all within this world. And nothing that the world believes as | true has any meaning in His Mind at all. What makes no sense and has |
| Tx:25.52 | cannot be the truth. If one belief so deeply valued here were | true, then every Thought God ever had is an illusion. And if but one |
| Tx:25.52 | God ever had is an illusion. And if but one Thought of His is | true, then all beliefs the world gives any meaning to are false and |
| Tx:25.53 | thinks, or is maintained by any form of reason believes this to be | true. Sin is not real because the Father and the Son are not insane. |
| Tx:25.60 | it seems that one must gain because another lost. If this were | true, then God is mad indeed! But what is this belief except a form |
| Tx:25.61 | beliefs can be corrected here. And sin must be impossible if this is | true. This is the rock on which salvation rests, the vantage point |
| Tx:25.67 | of punishment that they lay it aside unaided and perceive it is not | true? It is extremely hard for those who still believe sin meaningful |
| Tx:25.71 | to save? What can Love ask of you who think that all of this is | true? Could He, in justice and in love believe in your confusion you |
| Tx:25.75 | vengeance. You need not perceive in every circumstance that this is | true. Nor need you look to your experience within the world, which is |
| Tx:25.80 | solves will always be one in which no one loses. And this must be | true because He asks no sacrifice of anyone. An answer which demands |
| Tx:26.11 | loss is possible and could result in gain for anyone. If this were | true, then God would be unfair, sin would be possible, attack be |
| Tx:26.13 | an error. It does injustice to the Son of God and therefore is not | true. The Holy Spirit does not evaluate injustices as great or small |
| Tx:26.20 | a limited reality, a partial truth, a segment of the universe made | true. This is because knowledge makes no attack upon perception. They |
| Tx:26.24 | as such. Where all reality has been withdrawn from what was never | true, can it be hard to give it up and choose what must be true? |
| Tx:26.24 | was never true, can it be hard to give it up and choose what must be | true? |
| Tx:26.36 | in another time. In the extreme, he can delude himself that this is | true and pass from mere imagining into belief and into madness, quite |
| Tx:26.41 | of eternity. They come from what is past and gone and hinder not the | true existence of the here and now. The real world is the second part |
| Tx:26.49 | Perception's laws are opposite to truth, and what is | true of knowledge is not true of anything that is apart from it. Yet |
| Tx:26.49 | laws are opposite to truth, and what is true of knowledge is not | true of anything that is apart from it. Yet has God given answer to |
| Tx:26.50 | reversals of the laws of truth. The laws of truth forever will be | true and cannot be reversed, yet can be seen as upside-down. And this |
| Tx:26.51 | help. No illusion has any truth in it. Yet it appears some are more | true than others, although this clearly makes no sense at all. All |
| Tx:26.51 | and are false. Your preference gives them no reality. Not one is | true in any way, and all must yield with equal ease to what God gave |
| Tx:26.52 | can be expected but can not establish that the picture must be | true. |
| Tx:26.53 | meaning where no meaning is. And truth needs no defense to make it | true. Illusions have no witnesses and no effects. Who looks on them |
| Tx:26.56 | Salvation, perfect and complete, asks but a little wish that what is | true be true; a little willingness to overlook what is not there; a |
| Tx:26.56 | perfect and complete, asks but a little wish that what is true be | true; a little willingness to overlook what is not there; a little |
| Tx:26.56 | and complete. What is forgiveness but a willingness that truth be | true? What can remain unhealed and broken from a Unity Which holds |
| Tx:26.60 | are one, not separate. God wills you learn what always has been | true—that He created you as part of Him, and this must still be |
| Tx:26.60 | true—that He created you as part of Him, and this must still be | true because ideas leave not their source. Such is creation's law— |
| Tx:26.60 | conceives but adds to its abundance, never takes away. This is as | true of what is idly wished as what is truly willed, because the mind |
| Tx:26.60 | to believe ideas can leave their source is to invite illusions to be | true, without success. For never will success be possible in trying |
| Tx:26.67 | can make no change at all. But it can make what always has been | true be recognized by those who know it not. And by this little gift |
| Tx:27.6 | is his comfort and his health because it proves illusions are not | true. |
| Tx:27.9 | sin will end alike within the termination of the grave. If this were | true, there would be reason to remain content to seek for passing |
| Tx:27.15 | forgive their brothers and themselves as well. For no one in whom | true forgiveness reigns can suffer. He holds not the proof of sin |
| Tx:27.32 | beyond the truth, for what can stand for more than everything? Yet | true undoing must be kind. And so the first replacement for your |
| Tx:27.39 | but one question. It is this: “Of these illusions, which of them are | true? Which ones establish peace and offer joy? And which can bring |
| Tx:27.39 | prefer? That is the one which you should choose. The others are not | true. What can the body get that you would want the most of all? It |
| Tx:27.56 | or that, but nothing more, you choose. You do not make a witness | true because you called him by truth's name. The truth is found in |
| Tx:27.59 | forgives because it stands for what is past forgiveness and is | true. How foolish and insane it is to think a miracle is bound by |
| Tx:27.80 | and events which it contrives. That this is all the body does is | true, for it is but a figure in a dream. But who reacts to figures in |
| Tx:27.86 | unto yourself. No matter what the form of the attack, this still is | true. Whoever takes the role of enemy and of attacker, still is this |
| Tx:27.86 | to be the cause of any pain and suffering you feel, this is still | true. For you would not react at all to figures in a dream you knew |
| Tx:27.90 | is impossible is that you be unlike each other; that they both be | true. This is the only secret yet to learn. And it will be no secret |
| Tx:28.22 | The miracle establishes you dream a dream and that its content is not | true. This is a crucial step in dealing with illusions. No one is |
| Tx:28.64 | be apart. Yet all it means is that you tried to keep a promise to be | true to faithlessness. Yet faithlessness is sickness. It is like the |
| Tx:29.25 | can be but some illusions? They are dreams because they are not | true. Their equal lack of truth becomes the basis for the miracle, |
| Tx:30.49 | made to fill the gap you think arose between yourself and what is | true. And you attack them for the things you think they represent. |
| Tx:30.76 | It must be | true the miracle can heal all forms of sickness, or it cannot heal. |
| Tx:30.76 | cannot be to judge which forms are real and which appearances are | true. If one appearance must remain apart from healing, one illusion |
| Tx:30.82 | meaning. For it cannot be that meaning changes constantly and yet is | true. The Holy Spirit looks upon the world as with one purpose, |
| Tx:31.1 | How simple is salvation! All it says is what was never | true is not true now and never will be. The impossible has not |
| Tx:31.1 | How simple is salvation! All it says is what was never true is not | true now and never will be. The impossible has not occurred and can |
| Tx:31.1 | that is all. Can this be hard to learn by anyone who wants it to be | true? Only unwillingness to learn it could make such an easy lesson |
| Tx:31.1 | lesson difficult. How hard is it to see that what is false cannot be | true, and what is true cannot be false? You can no longer say that |
| Tx:31.1 | How hard is it to see that what is false cannot be true, and what is | true cannot be false? You can no longer say that you perceive no |
| Tx:31.1 | You can no longer say that you perceive no differences in false and | true. You have been told exactly how to tell one from the other and |
| Tx:31.5 | before the Voice of truth and teach you that Its lessons are not | true, too hard to learn, too difficult to see, and too opposed to |
| Tx:31.5 | to learn, too difficult to see, and too opposed to what is really | true. Yet you will learn them, for their learning is the only purpose |
| Tx:31.14 | be made each time you think you must decide on anything. Neither is | true. Nor are they different. Yet must we see them both before you |
| Tx:31.22 | come away without the thoughts you did not want and that were never | true. |
| Tx:31.35 | greatest lesson. All must reach this point and go beyond it. It is | true indeed there is no choice at all within the world. But this is |
| Tx:31.49 | exist. They are not given, and they must be made. Not one of them is | true, and many come from feverish imaginations, hot with hatred and |
| Tx:31.53 | kept in darkness is that in the light the one who would not think it | true is you. And what would happen to the world you know if all its |
| Tx:31.62 | decide in this determines all you see and think is real and hold as | true. On this one choice does all your world depend, for here have |
| Tx:31.65 | you made. Your will be done! In Heaven as on earth, this is forever | true. It matters not where you believe you are nor what you think the |
| Tx:31.75 | Behold your role within the universe! To every part of | true creation has the Lord of Love and Life entrusted all salvation |
| W1:I.5 | their use which will give them meaning to you and show you they are | true. Remember only this—you need not believe them, you need not |
| W1:5.1 | of forms, all of which will be perceived as different. This is not | true. However, until you learn that form does not matter, each form |
| W1:7.10 | Look about you. This is equally | true of whatever you look at. Acknowledge this by applying the idea |
| W1:8.2 | The only wholly | true thought one can hold about the past is that it is not here. To |
| W1:15.3 | eyes at last. They will not persist, because they merely symbolize | true perception, and they are not related to knowledge. These |
| W1:16.1 | Thoughts are not big or little, powerful or weak. They are merely | true or false. Those which are true create their own likeness. Those |
| W1:16.1 | powerful or weak. They are merely true or false. Those which are | true create their own likeness. Those which are false make theirs. |
| W1:17.8 | is because you are unaware as yet of any thoughts which are really | true and therefore really happy. |
| W1:19.2 | resistance to this idea, you will yet understand that it must be | true if salvation is possible at all. And salvation must be possible |
| W1:27.1 | today's exercises is to bring the time when the idea will be wholly | true a little nearer. |
| W1:27.7 | how often will you remember? How much do you want today's idea to be | true? Answer one of these questions, and you have answered the other. |
| W1:35.5 | matter. Illusions have no direction in reality. They are merely not | true. |
| W1:37.1 | This idea contains the first glimmerings of your | true function in the world or why you are here. Your purpose is to |
| W1:48.1 | it is very difficult to recognize for those who want illusions to be | true. |
| W1:51.6 | trying to justify “my” thoughts. I am constantly trying to make them | true. I make all things my “enemies” so that my anger is justified |
| W1:54.2 | eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My thoughts cannot be neither | true nor false. They must be one or the other. What I see shows me |
| W1:61.3 | True humility requires that you accept today's idea because it is | |
| W1:61.3 | accept today's idea because it is God's Voice Which tells you it is | true. This is a beginning step in accepting your real function on |
| W1:62.8 | these words, and in your mind is the awareness that they are | true. Should your attention wander, repeat the idea and add: |
| W1:65.9 | On this clean slate, let my | true function be written for me. |
| W1:66.10 | or is made by the ego which you have made to replace Him. Which is | true? Unless God gave your function to you, it must be the gift of |
| W1:66.13 | on the other. Let us try today to realize that only the truth is | true. |
| W1:72.15 | We are asking it of truth. Be certain, then, that the answer will be | true because of Whom you ask. Whenever you feel your confidence wane |
| W1:74.2 | for today are directed towards finding it. The idea itself is wholly | true. Therefore it cannot give rise to illusions. Without illusions, |
| W1:75.9 | He will be with you as you watch and wait. He will show you what | true vision sees. It is His Will, and you have joined with Him. Wait |
| W1:77.1 | Again, how simple is salvation! It is merely a statement of your | true Identity. It is this that we will celebrate today. |
| W1:78.8 | on him a different way and see our savior shining in the light of | true forgiveness given unto us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God |
| W1:87.2 | only on what it shows me. This day I will experience the peace of | true perception. |
| W1:91.6 | Begin the longer practice periods with this statement of | true cause and effect relationships: |
| W1:93.1 | from you as if from a poisonous snake. You think if what is | true about you were revealed to you, you would be struck with horror |
| W1:93.2 | dreams and have bowed down to idols made of dust—all this is | true by what you now believe. |
| W1:93.6 | God. Over and over this must be repeated until it is accepted. It is | true. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. Nothing can touch it nor |
| W1:93.11 | You are what God created or what you made. One Self is | true; the other is not there. Try to experience the unity of your One |
| W1:93.17 | to bring the conviction to your mind that the idea for the day is | true indeed. |
| W1:94.2 | True light is strength, and strength is sinlessness. If you remain as | |
| W1:95.12 | This is the truth, and nothing else is | true. Today we will affirm this truth again and try to reach the |
| W1:95.12 | reach the place in you in which there is no doubt that only this is | true. Begin the practice periods today with this assurance, given to |
| W1:95.16 | and one goal—to bring awareness of this oneness to all minds, that | true creation may extend the Allness and the Unity of God. |
| W1:97.11 | words He offers you today, and let Him tell your mind that they are | true. |
| W1:98.11 | with all His faith and joy and certainty that what you say is | true. And you will have conviction then of Him Who knows the function |
| W1:99.5 | separation, and on loss. Yet does He know one thing must still be | true—God still is Love, and this is not His Will. |
| W1:99.16 | and fear forever from your mind. If you are tempted to believe them | true, remember that appearances cannot withstand the truth these |
| W1:101.2 | sin is real then happiness must be illusion, for they cannot both be | true. The sinful warrant only death and pain, and it is this they ask |
| W1:103.6 | day, and quiet all your fears with this assurance, kind and wholly | true: |
| W1:105.5 | True giving is creation. It extends the limitless to the unlimited, | |
| W1:105.10 | a while, and let His Voice assure you that the words you speak are | true. |
| W1:106.4 | those you ever dreamt or wished for in your dreams. His miracles are | true. They will not fade when dreaming ends. They end the dream |
| W1:108.1 | conflicts and mistaken thoughts into one concept which is wholly | true? Even that one will disappear because the Thought behind it will |
| W1:108.2 | True light which makes true vision possible is not the light the | |
| W1:108.2 | True light which makes | true vision possible is not the light the body's eyes behold. It is a |
| W1:108.6 | has special usefulness because it can be tried so easily and seen as | true. And when this special case has proved it always works in every |
| W1:110.1 | would be enough to save you and the world if you believed that it is | true. Its truth would mean that you have made no changes in yourself |
| W1:122.15 | Forgiveness offers everything I want. Today I have accepted this as | true. Today I have received the gifts of God. |
| W1:123.4 | today in honor of the Self Which God has willed to be our | true Identity in Him. Today we smile on everyone we see and walk with |
| W1:125.9 | It, with no illusions interposed between the wholly indivisible and | true. |
| W1:126.3 | one unworthy of the gift because his sins have lowered him beneath a | true equality with you. He has no claim on your forgiveness. It holds |
| W1:126.5 | If this be | true, forgiveness has no grounds on which to rest dependably and |
| W1:126.7 | as worthy of His Son? Salvation is a better gift than this, and | true forgiveness, as the means by which it is attained, must heal the |
| W1:126.12 | I give is given to myself. The Help I need to learn that this is | true is with me now. And I will trust in Him. |
| W1:128.1 | to bitter ashes of despair. No one but must accept this thought as | true, if he would leave this world behind and soar beyond its petty |
| W1:128.3 | worth from you, and add another bar across the door that leads to | true awareness of your Self. |
| W1:130.11 | the limits on your choice. The unreal or the real, the false or | true is what you see, and only what you see. Perception is consistent |
| W1:131.10 | foolish thoughts like these behind today, and turn your mind to | true ideas instead. |
| W1:131.11 | the real world to replace the foolish images that we held dear, with | true ideas arising in the place of thoughts which have no meaning, no |
| W1:131.14 | well which are compatible with such a world and which you think are | true. Then let them go, and sink below them to the holy place where |
| W1:132.9 | Today's idea is | true because the world does not exist. And if it is indeed your own |
| W1:134.2 | when you can accept the fact that pardon is not asked for what is | true. It must be limited to what is false. It is irrelevant to |
| W1:134.3 | in an unfounded effort to deceive yourself by making an illusion | true. This twisted viewpoint but reflects the hold that the idea of |
| W1:134.4 | look on pardon as deception. For it is impossible to think of sin as | true and not believe forgiveness is a lie. Thus is forgiveness really |
| W1:134.9 | Now are you free to follow in the way your | true forgiveness opens up to you. For if one brother has received |
| W1:134.9 | is open to yourself. There is a very simple way to find the door to | true forgiveness and perceive it open wide in welcome. When you feel |
| W1:134.14 | Today we practice | true forgiveness that the time of joining be no more delayed. For we |
| W1:135.13 | until it recognizes this is so. But when it has accepted this as | true, then is it healed and lets the body go. |
| W1:136.6 | fragments of the whole, assembles them without regard to all their | true relationships, and thus constructs illusions of a whole which is |
| W1:137.4 | that lies must be the truth. But healing demonstrates that truth is | true. The separation sickness would impose has never really happened. |
| W1:138.2 | as the relinquishment of hell. It is not really thus. Yet what is | true in God's creation cannot enter here unless it is reflected in |
| W1:138.4 | one is made, you will perceive it was no choice at all, for truth is | true and nothing else is real. There is no opposite to choose |
| W1:139.6 | share its madness in the sad belief that what is universal here is | true? Nothing the world believes is true. It is a place whose purpose |
| W1:139.6 | that what is universal here is true? Nothing the world believes is | true. It is a place whose purpose is to be a home where those who |
| W1:140.9 | others. All of them are false and can be cured because they are not | true. |
| W1:R4.4 | blocks this thought from his awareness. Yet it is forever | true. |
| W1:R4.5 | with some understanding of the many forms in which the lack of | true forgiveness may be carefully concealed. Because they are |
| W1:152.2 | You may believe that this position is extreme and too inclusive to be | true. Yet can truth have exceptions? If you have the gift of |
| W1:152.3 | Salvation is the recognition that the truth is | true and nothing else is true. This you have heard before, but may |
| W1:152.3 | is the recognition that the truth is true and nothing else is | true. This you have heard before, but may not yet accept both parts |
| W1:152.3 | second has no meaning, but without the second is the first no longer | true. Truth cannot have an opposite. This cannot be too often said |
| W1:152.3 | This cannot be too often said and thought about. For if what is not | true is true as well as what is true, then part of truth is false, |
| W1:152.3 | be too often said and thought about. For if what is not true is | true as well as what is true, then part of truth is false, and truth |
| W1:152.3 | thought about. For if what is not true is true as well as what is | true, then part of truth is false, and truth has lost its meaning. |
| W1:152.3 | is false, and truth has lost its meaning. Nothing but the truth is | true, and what is false is false. |
| W1:152.9 | Today we practice | true humility, abandoning the false pretense by which the ego seeks |
| W1:152.10 | guilty and afraid, ashamed of what we are. And we lift our hearts in | true humility instead to Him Who has created us immaculate, like to |
| W1:152.11 | we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false and only truth is | true. |
| W1:153.8 | We will not play such childish games today. For our | true purpose is to save the world, and we would not exchange for |
| W1:153.14 | tale. God's Son can smile at last on learning that it is not | true. |
| W1:153.18 | Voice guiding your footsteps into quiet ways where you will walk in | true defenselessness, for you will know that Heaven goes with you. |
| W1:154.11 | And He needs our will united with His own, that we may be the | true receivers of the gifts He gives. |
| W1:154.15 | recedes as we light up our minds and realize these holy words are | true. They are the message sent to us today from our Creator. Now we |
| W1:156.1 | mentioned in the text—ideas leave not their source. If this be | true, how can you be apart from God? How could you walk the world |
| W1:156.2 | in the thoughts that we present in our curriculum. Truth must be | true throughout if it be true. It cannot contradict itself nor be in |
| W1:156.2 | we present in our curriculum. Truth must be true throughout if it be | true. It cannot contradict itself nor be in parts uncertain and in |
| W1:158.11 | that is not of time. Yet time has still one gift to give in which | true knowledge is reflected in a way so accurate its image shares its |
| W1:161.5 | symbols can stand for the meaningless. Love needs no symbols, being | true. But fear attaches to specifics, being false. |
| W1:163.6 | if we be sane; what contradicts one thought entirely cannot be | true unless its opposite is proven false. |
| W1:164.5 | balance righted and the scales of judgment left to Him Who judges | true. And in His judgment will a world unfold in perfect innocence |
| W1:166.2 | upon the world and judges it as certain, solid, trustworthy, and | true believes in two creators or in one, himself alone. But never in |
| W1:169.1 | learning, for grace cannot come until the mind prepares itself for | true acceptance. Grace becomes inevitable instantly in those who have |
| W1:R5.4 | of this thought or helps it be more meaningful, more personal and | true, and more descriptive of the holy Self we share and now prepare |
| W1:R5.14 | finished this review, we will have recognized the words we speak are | true. |
| W1:181.9 | is all we want to see, when this is all we seek for in the name of | true perception, are the eyes of Christ inevitably ours. And the love |
| W1:182.1 | is not home to you. And somewhere in your mind you know that this is | true. A memory of home keeps haunting you, as if there were a place |
| W1:184.3 | is given meaning and will then be seen as meaningful, a cause of | true effects with consequence inherent in itself. |
| W1:184.6 | is there. It can be seen, as is anticipated. What denies that it is | true is but illusion, for it is the ultimate reality. To question it |
| W1:184.8 | Think not you made the world. Illusions, yes! But what is | true in earth and Heaven is beyond your naming. When you call upon a |
| W1:184.8 | you call upon a brother, it is to his body that you make appeal. His | true Identity is hidden from you by what you believe he really is. |
| W1:184.9 | world can understand, but which you recognize is not the unity where | true communication can be found. |
| W1:184.10 | Identity Which all things share; the one acknowledgment of what is | true. And then step back to darkness, not because you think it real, |
| W1:186.1 | day take all arrogance away from every mind. Here is the thought of | true humility which holds no function as your own but that which has |
| W1:186.5 | to be released from the imprisonment your plan to prove the false is | true has brought to you. Accept the plan you did not make instead. |
| W1:187.1 | what you would give. It is the second phase on which the world and | true perception differ. Having had and given, then the world asserts |
| W1:189.6 | Today we pass illusions as we seek to reach to what is | true in us and feel Its all-embracing tenderness, Its Love Which |
| W1:189.7 | about yourself. Empty your mind of everything it thinks is either | true or false or good or bad, of every thought it judges worthy and |
| W1:189.9 | pathway of itself. What has not been denied is surely there if it be | true, and can be surely reached. God knows His Son and knows the way |
| W1:190.4 | illusions which it shields and tries to demonstrate must still be | true. |
| W1:191.5 | escape, you will return and set it free. For he who can accept his | true Identity is truly saved. And his salvation is the gift he gives |
| W1:193.2 | at all. Yet it is He Who gives the means by which perception is made | true and beautiful enough to let the light of Heaven shine upon it. |
| W1:196.6 | escape? The fear of God is real to anyone who thinks this thought is | true. And he will not perceive its foolishness nor even see that it |
| W1:200.3 | for what you have already must succeed. To ask that what is false be | true can only fail. Forgive yourself for vain imaginings, and seek no |
| W1:200.6 | beloved Son from evil dreams that he imagines, yet believes are | true, a worthy purpose? Who could hope for more while there appears |
| W1:211.1 | [191] I am the holy Son of God Himself. In silence and in | true humility, I seek God's glory to behold it in the Son whom He |
| W2:I.9 | are glad that this is all undone, and we no longer think illusions | true. The memory of God is shimmering across the wide horizons of our |
| W2:WF.2 | makes a judgment that it will not raise to doubt, although it is not | true. The mind is closed and will not be released. The thought |
| W2:224.1 | My | true Identity is so secure, so lofty, sinless, glorious and great, |
| W2:228.1 | believe in what His knowledge makes impossible? Shall I accept as | true what He proclaims as false? Or shall I take His Word for what I |
| W2:228.1 | Word for what I am since He is my Creator and the One Who knows the | true condition of His Son? |
| W2:234.1 | the peace of God the Father and the Son. This we accept as wholly | true today. |
| W2:237.2 | God today. Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your Son and my | true Self as well. Amen. |
| W2:240.1 | upon a world which is impossible. Not one thing in this world is | true. It does not matter what the form in which it may appear. It |
| W2:WIW.1 | cherished. When the thought of separation has been changed to one of | true forgiveness will the world be seen in quite another light, and |
| W2:WIS.2 | as lies. The senses then will seek instead for witnesses to what is | true. |
| W2:252.2 | Father, You know my | true Identity. Reveal it now to me who am Your Son, that I may waken |
| W2:260.2 | Now is our Source remembered, and therein we find our | true Identity at last. Holy indeed are we because our Source can know |
| W2:271.1 | me see, to listen to God's Voice, and seek the witnesses to what is | true in God's creation. In Christ's sight, the world and God's |
| W2:275.1 | attend the Voice of God, Which speaks an ancient lesson, no more | true today than any other day. Yet has this day been chosen as the |
| W2:281.1 | with You can only bless. The thoughts I think with You alone are | true. |
| W2:283.1 | You secure? Is not the light of Heaven infinite? Is not Your Son my | true Identity, when You created everything that is? |
| W2:284.1 | and then repeated many times and next to be accepted as but partly | true with many reservations. Then to be considered seriously more and |
| W2:296.1 | and have no thoughts which are apart from Yours, for only Yours are | true. I would be savior to the world I made. For having damned it, I |
| W2:300.2 | and learned exactly what to do to be restored to Heaven and our | true Identity. And we give thanks today the world endures but for an |
| W2:WISC.1 | the never-lost and re-establishes what is forever and forever | true. It is the invitation to God's Word to take illusion's place, |
| W2:WISC.3 | to the hands of Christ, to be returned to Spirit in the name of | true creation and the Will of God. |
| W2:309.1 | fear to look within because I think I made another will which is not | true and made it real. Yet it has no effects. Within me is the |
| W2:309.2 | and undefiled. It is the holy altar to my Self, and there I find my | true Identity. |
| W2:WILJ.1 | the Voice for God proclaim that what is false is false and what is | true has never changed. And this the judgment is in which perception |
| W2:WILJ.1 | perception ends. At first you see a world which has accepted this as | true, projected from a now corrected mind. And with this holy sight, |
| W2:313.1 | forgiven, for He sees no sin in anything He looks upon. Now let His | true perception come to me that I may waken from the dream of guilt |
| W2:327.1 | answer me Himself. Let me but learn from my experience that this is | true, and faith in Him must surely come to me. This is the faith that |
| W2:WIE.1 | love is fearful, life is really death, and what opposes God alone is | true. |
| W2:345.1 | I can give. Then let me give this gift alone today, which, born of | true forgiveness, lights the way that I must travel to remember You. |
| M:I.2 | systems, and you demonstrate that you believe one or the other is | true all the time. From your demonstration, others learn and so do |
| M:4.18 | on trust, for without trust, no one can be generous in the | true sense. To the world, generosity means “giving away” in the sense |
| M:4.19 | These are the things that belong to him. These he can give away in | true generosity, protecting them forever for himself. |
| M:4.20 | in doubt. The time will be as right as is the answer. And this is | true for everything that happens now or in the future. The past as |
| M:4.22 | True faithfulness, however, does not deviate. Being consistent, it is | |
| M:4.22 | His definition of His Son. It is to them that faithfulness in the | true sense is always directed. Toward them it looks, seeking until it |
| M:4.25 | on the curriculum. It is the function of God's teachers to bring | true learning to the world. Properly speaking it is unlearning that |
| M:5.7 | Does not this follow of necessity? Place cause and effect in their | true sequence in one respect, and the learning will generalize and |
| M:5.7 | will generalize and transform the world. The transfer value of one | true idea has no end nor limit. The final outcome of this lesson is |
| M:5.9 | ask for the right to question what the patient has accepted is | true. As God's messengers, His teachers are the symbols of salvation. |
| M:6.4 | about the gift that makes it truly given. And it is trust that makes | true giving possible. Healing is the change of mind that the Holy |
| M:8.2 | is recognized as being untrue. The mind therefore seeks to make it | true out of its intensity of desire to have it for itself. Illusions |
| M:8.4 | And having done so, it concludes that the categories must be | true. On this the judgment of all differences rests, because it is on |
| M:10.6 | of it. And now he knows that these things need not be. Not one is | true. For he has given up their cause, and they, which never were but |
| M:11.1 | here, and what He promises can hardly be impossible. But it is | true that the world must be looked at differently if His promises are |
| M:11.2 | whether your judgment or the Word of God is more likely to be | true. For they say different things about the world, and things so |
| M:13.6 | requires sacrifice of all you really hold dear. In one sense that is | true, for you hold dear the things that crucify God's Son. And it is |
| M:14.5 | teach are lessons in which Heaven is reflected. And now sit down in | true humility and realize that all God would have you do, you can do. |
| M:15.3 | on yourself, teacher of God? Do you believe that this is wholly | true? No, not yet, not yet. But this is still your goal—why you are |
| M:15.3 | prepare yourself to hear this judgment and to recognize that it is | true. One instant of complete belief in this, and you will go beyond |
| M:16.1 | —they do not change at random. Seeing this and understanding it is | true, he rests content. He will be told all that his role should be, |
| M:16.8 | Forget not this is magic and that magic is a sorry substitute for | true assistance. It is not good enough for God's teacher, because it |
| M:16.10 | or only one or none at all. Yet each temptation to accept magic as | true must be abandoned through his recognition not that it is |
| M:17.9 | Cause of everything beyond all fear and thus forever real and always | true. |
| M:18.1 | Correction of a lasting nature—and only this is | true correction—cannot be made until the teacher of God has ceased |
| M:18.5 | him instantly realize that he has made an interpretation that is not | true. Then let him turn within to his Eternal Guide, and let Him |
| M:19.2 | that leads to truth. This becomes possible because, while it is not | true in itself, justice includes nothing that opposes truth. There is |
| M:19.3 | has no place in such a scheme, for not one “sin” but seems forever | true. |
| M:20.2 | this thing and all the past. But strangely, it is not a contrast of | true differences. The past just slips away and in its place is |
| M:20.6 | opposite. There is no thought that contradicts His Will yet can be | true. The contrast between His Will and yours but seemed to be |
| M:22.4 | in need of healing. This recognition has no special reference. It is | true of all things that God created. In it are all illusions healed. |

| Tx:11.8 | answer as you want it to be, and if you want it in truth, it will be | truly yours. Every appeal you answer in the name of Christ brings the |

| Tx:11.35 | you will see your vision changed, and there you will learn to see | truly. From this place, where God and His Son dwell in peace and |
| Tx:11.35 | you are welcome, you will look out in peace and behold the world | truly. Yet to find the place, you must relinquish your investment in |

| Tx:1.14 | 14. Miracles bear witness to | truth. They are convincing because they arise from conviction. |
| Tx:1.20 | the awareness that the spirit, not the body, is the altar of | truth. This is the recognition that leads to the healing power of the |
| Tx:1.43 | belongs only to the Soul, and the miracle acknowledges only the | truth. It thus dispels man's illusions about himself and puts him in |
| Tx:1.51 | Remember that error cannot really threaten | truth, which can always withstand it. Only the error is really |
| Tx:1.54 | boundaries. As a result, the doer's perceptions are aligned with | truth as God created it. |
| Tx:1.58 | of the “scarcity” fallacy, from which only error can proceed. | Truth is always abundant. Those who perceive and acknowledge that |
| Tx:1.91 | would never have occurred if he had not distorted his perception of | truth and thus perceived himself as lacking. The concept of any sort |
| Tx:1.94 | The psychotic tries to escape by establishing the certain | truth of his own errors. It is most difficult to free him by ordinary |
| Tx:1.94 | by ordinary means because he is more consistent in his own denial of | truth. The miracle, however, makes no such distinctions. It corrects |
| Tx:2.5 | that it is in man's ability to put his own ideas there instead of | truth. |
| Tx:2.16 | among misperceptions. Its sole concern is to distinguish between | truth on the one hand and all kinds of errors on the other. Some |
| Tx:2.22 | Denial of error is a powerful defense of | truth. You will note that we have been shifting the emphasis from the |
| Tx:2.22 | will is really free, it cannot miscreate because it recognizes only | truth. |
| Tx:2.23 | is one of true projection; I can project to you the affirmation of | truth. If you project error to me or to yourself, you are interfering |
| Tx:2.25 | directed only to error, and projection should be reserved only for | truth. You should truly give as you have truly received. The Golden |
| Tx:2.34 | main point to be understood from this section is that you can defend | truth as well as error and, in fact, much better. |
| Tx:2.49 | the right defense, It passes over all others, looking past error to | truth. Because of the real strength of Its vision, It pulls the will |
| Tx:2.65 | confusion of others. The message he then gives to others is the | truth that their minds are similarly constructive and that their |
| Tx:2.73 | you are responsible for what you do but not for what you think. The | truth is that you are responsible for what you think because it is |
| Tx:2.74 | do comes from what you think. You cannot separate yourself from the | truth by “giving” autonomy to behavior. This is controlled by me |
| Tx:2.89 | to the power of thought, they still come nowhere near the | truth. You do not expect to grow when you say it, because you do not |
| Tx:2.92 | the underlying depreciation was too effective for tolerance. The | truth is that there are no “idle” thoughts. All thinking produces |
| Tx:3.7 | miracle is always a denial of this error and an affirmation of the | truth. Only right-mindedness can create in a way that has any real |
| Tx:3.13 | is not to attack another's position but rather to protect the | truth. It is unwise to accept any concept if you have to turn a whole |

| Tx:3.17 | to the partly willing. The Atonement itself radiates nothing but | truth. It therefore epitomizes harmlessness and sheds only blessing. |
| Tx:3.18 | The Resurrection demonstrated that nothing can destroy | truth. Good can withstand any form of evil because light abolishes |
| Tx:3.23 | and only the mind can perceive anything. A pure mind knows the | truth, and this is its strength. It cannot attack the body because it |
| Tx:3.24 | except true perfection belongs. The understanding of the innocent is | truth. That is why their altars are truly radiant. |
| Tx:3.26 | and some [of everything]. This makes everyone really unable to deny | truth totally, even if he generally deceives himself in this |
| Tx:3.28 | The miracle perceives everything as it is. If nothing but the | truth exists (and this is really a redundant statement, because what |
| Tx:3.29 | is true in everything you perceive, you will make it true for you. | Truth overcomes all error. This means that if you perceive truly, you |
| Tx:3.29 | see them as they are, you offer them your own validation of their | truth. This is the healing which the miracle actively fosters. |
| Tx:3.31 | is the basis for knowledge, but knowing is the affirmation of | truth. All your difficulties ultimately stem from the fact that you |
| Tx:3.35 | altar within and is timeless because it is certain. To perceive the | truth is not the same as knowing it. |
| Tx:3.47 | darkness merely by establishing the fact that it is not there. The | truth will always overcome error in this sense. This is not an active |
| Tx:3.48 | remain in surety, and therefore know that no miscreation exists. | Truth cannot deal with unwilling error because it does not will to be |
| Tx:3.55 | knowledge. Knowledge does not require ingenuity. When we say “the | truth shall set you free,” we mean that all this kind of thinking is |
| Tx:3.58 | is nothing but perfect equality? Perception becomes impossible. | Truth can only be known. All of it is equally true, and knowing any |
| Tx:3.60 | have not totally accepted the Atonement and given themselves over to | truth. Perception is a separated state, and a perceiver does need |
| Tx:3.78 | made. But know that this making will surely dissolve in the light of | truth, because its foundation is a lie. |
| Tx:3.79 | cannot be shaken because the light is in it. Your starting point is | truth, and you must return to this beginning. Much has been perceived |
| Tx:3.80 | authority problem meaningful. The world is not left by death but by | truth, and truth can be known by all those for whom the Kingdom was |
| Tx:3.80 | problem meaningful. The world is not left by death but by truth, and | truth can be known by all those for whom the Kingdom was created and |
| Tx:4.55 | believe what is not true and then protect this belief at the cost of | truth? |
| Tx:4.65 | You are mirrors of | truth in which God Himself shines in perfect light. To the ego's dark |
| Tx:5.11 | before of the higher or the “true” perception, which is so close to | truth that God Himself can flow across the little gap. Knowledge is |
| Tx:5.43 | Correct and learn and be open to learning. You have not made | truth, but truth can still set you free. Look as the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:5.43 | and learn and be open to learning. You have not made truth, but | truth can still set you free. Look as the Holy Spirit looks, and |
| Tx:5.46 | perceive as fearful and teach you that only what is loving is true. | Truth is beyond your ability to destroy but entirely within your |
| Tx:6.9 | own salvation. Rather, teach your own perfect immunity, which is the | truth in you, and know that it cannot be assailed. Do not protect it |
| Tx:6.13 | and that is the only way in which I can be perceived as the Way, the | Truth, and the Light. |
| Tx:6.30 | but a fact. Anything that God create[s] is as true as He is. Its | truth lies only in its perfect inclusion in Him, Who alone is |
| Tx:6.43 | of everything the ego believes. This is how you will learn the | truth that will set you free and keep you so, as others learn it of |
| Tx:6.50 | you were asleep and did not know. When you awake, you will see the | truth around you and in you, and you will no longer believe in dreams |
| Tx:6.55 | that you have sinned? If He confronted the self you made with the | truth He created for you, what could you be but afraid? You would |
| Tx:6.71 | believe you are. If the center of the thought system is true, only | truth extends from it. But if a lie is at its center, only deception |
| Tx:6.76 | to decide which voice is true, but the Holy Spirit teaches you that | truth was created by God, and your decision cannot change it. As you |
| Tx:6.82 | to strengthen the Kingdom in you. What is partly in accord with | truth, He accepts and purifies. But what is out of accord entirely, |
| Tx:6.93 | Certainty is of God for you. Vigilance is not necessary for | truth, but it is necessary against illusions. |
| Tx:6.94 | Truth is without illusions and therefore within the Kingdom. | |
| Tx:6.94 | outside the Kingdom is illusion, but you must learn to accept | truth, because you threw it away. You therefore saw yourself as if |
| Tx:7.16 | God's law of Creation in perfect form does not involve the use of | truth to convince His Sons of truth. The extension of truth, which is |
| Tx:7.16 | form does not involve the use of truth to convince His Sons of | truth. The extension of truth, which is the law of the Kingdom, rests |
| Tx:7.16 | the use of truth to convince His Sons of truth. The extension of | truth, which is the law of the Kingdom, rests only on the knowledge |
| Tx:7.16 | which is the law of the Kingdom, rests only on the knowledge of what | truth is. This is your inheritance and requires no learning at all, |
| Tx:7.25 | any situation. Because I am always with you, you are the way and the | truth and the light. You did not make this power, any more than I |
| Tx:7.33 | Truth can only be recognized and need only be recognized. Inspiration | |
| Tx:7.38 | truly, and they can operate only truly since they are the laws of | Truth. But seek this only because you can find nothing else. There is |
| Tx:7.49 | out of fear but which you will never love. The other shows you only | truth, which you will love, because you will understand it. |
| Tx:7.52 | perceive only what is true. Come therefore unto me and learn of the | truth in you. The mind we share is shared by all our brothers, and as |
| Tx:7.63 | The ego wants no part of | truth, because the truth is that the ego is not true. If truth is |
| Tx:7.63 | The ego wants no part of truth, because the | truth is that the ego is not true. If truth is total, the untrue |
| Tx:7.63 | no part of truth, because the truth is that the ego is not true. If | truth is total, the untrue cannot exist. Commitment to either must be |
| Tx:7.63 | you believe that two totally contradictory thought systems share | truth, your need for vigilance is apparent. Your minds are dividing |
| Tx:7.89 | The Holy Spirit will teach you to perceive beyond belief, because | truth is beyond belief, and His perception is true. The ego can be |
| Tx:7.91 | it were the part that is being sided against. To the Soul, this is | truth, because it knows its fullness and cannot conceive of any part |
| Tx:7.95 | what it adds is true. Insanity is therefore the non-extension of | truth, which blocks joy because it blocks creation and thus blocks |
| Tx:7.96 | done so. Disobeying God's Will is meaningful only to the insane. In | truth it is impossible. Your self-fullness is as boundless as God's. |
| Tx:7.100 | see a logical outcome depends on the willingness to see it, but its | truth has nothing to do with your willingness at all. Truth is God's |
| Tx:7.100 | it, but its truth has nothing to do with your willingness at all. | Truth is God's Will. Share His Will, and you share what He knows. |
| Tx:7.106 | is a lesson in love, which is joy. Every miracle is thus a lesson in | truth, and by offering truth you are learning the difference between |
| Tx:7.106 | is joy. Every miracle is thus a lesson in truth, and by offering | truth you are learning the difference between pain and joy. |
| Tx:7.111 | what He has given you. Nothing is as easy to perceive as | truth. This is the perception which is immediate, clear, and natural. |
| Tx:7.111 | for you. Out of your natural environment, you may well ask, “What is | truth?” since truth is the environment by which and for which you |
| Tx:7.111 | your natural environment, you may well ask, “What is truth?” since | truth is the environment by which and for which you were created. |
| Tx:7.112 | yours and that of God, Who created you. You cannot deny part of | truth. You do not know your creations, because you do not know their |
| Tx:8.35 | It is as bereft as you are. No part of It can be imprisoned if Its | truth is to be known. Can you be separated from your identification |
| Tx:8.35 | is not a solution; it is a delusion. The delusional believe that | truth will assail them, and so they do not see it, because they |
| Tx:8.35 | and so they do not see it, because they prefer the delusion. Judging | truth as something they do not want, they perceive deception and |
| Tx:8.38 | you only the recognition of His power in you, but in that lies all | truth. As we unite, we unite with Him. Glory be to the union of God |
| Tx:8.39 | Our union is therefore the way to renounce the ego in yourself. The | truth in both of us is beyond the ego. By willing that, you have gone |
| Tx:8.39 | is beyond the ego. By willing that, you have gone beyond it toward | truth. Our success in transcending the ego is guaranteed by God, and |
| Tx:8.51 | It is a journey without distance to a goal that has never changed. | Truth can only be experienced. It cannot be described, and it cannot |
| Tx:8.51 | it cannot be explained. I can make you aware of the conditions of | truth, but the experience is of God. Together we can meet its |
| Tx:8.51 | the experience is of God. Together we can meet its conditions, but | truth will dawn upon you of itself. |
| Tx:8.56 | you will not see anything physical except as what it is. Use it for | truth, and you will see it truly. Misuse it, and you will |
| Tx:8.76 | meaningless, there is no point in considering them. The function of | truth is to collect data which are true. There is no point in trying |
| Tx:8.78 | willingness to listen until you will not to tolerate anything except | truth. When you lay the ego aside, it will be gone. The Holy Spirit's |
| Tx:8.90 | “threaten” anything except illusions, since reality can only uphold | truth. The very fact that the Will of God, which is what you are, is |
| Tx:8.92 | The association of | truth and fear, which would be highly artificial at most, is |
| Tx:8.92 | inappropriate in the minds of those who do not know what | truth is. All that this kind of association means is that you are |
| Tx:8.96 | this gives you the illusion of safety. Yet you cannot be safe from | truth but only in it. Reality is the only safety. Your will is your |
| Tx:8.98 | punishment is inevitable, attempts to teach himself to like it. The | truth is, very simply, that no one wants either abandonment or |
| Tx:8.99 | the recognition that his will and God's are one. In the presence of | truth, there are no unbelievers and no sacrifices. In the security of |
| Tx:8.101 | recognize the enormous waste of energy which you expend in denying | truth. What would you say of someone who persisted in attempting the |
| Tx:8.105 | When you feel these things, do not try to look beyond yourself for | truth, for truth can only be within you. Say, therefore, |
| Tx:8.105 | feel these things, do not try to look beyond yourself for truth, for | truth can only be within you. Say, therefore, |
| Tx:8.110 | and doubt your brother? Believe his words are true because of the | truth which is in him. You will unite with the truth in him, and his |
| Tx:8.110 | true because of the truth which is in him. You will unite with the | truth in him, and his words will be true. As you hear him, you will |
| Tx:8.110 | words will be true. As you hear him, you will hear me. Listening to | truth is the only way you can hear it now and finally know it. |
| Tx:8.111 | to you through him. What can so holy a brother tell you except | truth? But are you listening to it? Your brother may not know who he |
| Tx:8.113 | I love you for the | truth in you, as God does. Your deceptions may deceive you, but they |
| Tx:8.113 | in everyone. Do not listen to anything else, or you will not hear | truth. |
| Tx:8.114 | sake of what God gave them. They will answer you if you learn to ask | truth of them. Do not ask for blessings without blessing them, for |
| Tx:8.114 | how blessed you are. By following this way, you are looking for the | truth in you. This is not going beyond yourself but toward yourself. |
| Tx:9.6 | but merely to accept him as he is. His errors do not come from the | truth that is in him, and only this truth is yours. His errors cannot |
| Tx:9.6 | His errors do not come from the truth that is in him, and only this | truth is yours. His errors cannot change this and can have no effect |
| Tx:9.6 | His errors cannot change this and can have no effect at all on the | truth in you. To perceive errors in anyone and to react to them as if |
| Tx:9.7 | attacked yourself. If you would find your way and keep it, see only | truth beside you, for you walk together. The Holy Spirit in you |
| Tx:9.19 | all of us. Only this awareness heals, because it is the awareness of | truth. |
| Tx:9.21 | them make them real? Every healer who searches fantasies for | truth must be unhealed, because he does not know where to look for |
| Tx:9.21 | truth must be unhealed, because he does not know where to look for | truth and therefore does not have the answer to the problem of |
| Tx:9.47 | Remember this when the ego speaks, and you will not hear it. The | truth about you is so lofty that nothing unworthy of God is worthy of |
| Tx:9.54 | Truth and littleness are denials of each other, because grandeur is | |
| Tx:9.54 | Truth and littleness are denials of each other, because grandeur is | truth. Truth does not vacillate; it is always true. When grandeur |
| Tx:9.54 | and littleness are denials of each other, because grandeur is truth. | Truth does not vacillate; it is always true. When grandeur slips away |
| Tx:9.55 | therefore will deprive you of your true witnesses to your reality. | Truth is not obscure nor hidden, but its obviousness to you lies in |
| Tx:9.58 | Yet if | truth is indivisible, your evaluation of yourself must be God's. You |
| Tx:9.67 | and be glad. Dreams will be impossible, because you will want only | truth, and being at last your will, it will be yours. |
| Tx:9.68 | to be fearful, but only because the dissociation was an attack on | truth. You are fearful because you have forgotten. And you have |
| Tx:9.70 | again what has been made but was rejected. The ability to accept | truth in this world is the perceptual counterpart of creating in the |
| Tx:9.71 | that the misuse of defenses always constitutes an attack on | truth and truth is God, you will realize why this is always fearful. |
| Tx:9.71 | the misuse of defenses always constitutes an attack on truth and | truth is God, you will realize why this is always fearful. If you |
| Tx:9.77 | forgotten. Your recognition of him as part of God teaches him the | truth about himself, which he is denying. Would you strengthen his |
| Tx:9.86 | let it go. Knowledge cannot dawn on a mind full of illusions because | truth and illusions are irreconcilable. Truth is whole and cannot be |
| Tx:9.86 | full of illusions because truth and illusions are irreconcilable. | Truth is whole and cannot be known by part of a mind. |
| Tx:9.90 | you attempt to interpose between yourself and your reality affect | truth at all. Peace is yours because God created you. And He created |
| Tx:10.17 | it, the better teacher and learner you become. If you have denied | truth, what better witnesses to its reality could you have than those |
| Tx:10.39 | be very calm in doing this, for we are merely looking honestly for | truth. The “dynamics” of the ego will be our lesson for a while, for |
| Tx:10.39 | We will undo this error quietly together and then look beyond it to | truth. |
| Tx:10.41 | The ego is fearful to you because you believe this. Yet the | truth is very simple: |
| Tx:10.49 | denied yourself. By believing that you have successfully attacked | truth, you are believing that attack has power. Very simply, then, |
| Tx:10.51 | by identifying with Him and fulfilling your function as it exists in | truth. The ego believes that to accomplish its goal is happiness. But |
| Tx:10.53 | Never forget that the ego believes that power, understanding, and | truth lie in separation, and to establish this belief it must attack. |
| Tx:10.54 | of the Holy Spirit's. The ego focuses on error and overlooks | truth. It makes real every mistake it perceives, and with |
| Tx:10.54 | reasoning concludes that, because of the mistake, consistent | truth must be meaningless. The next step, then, is obvious. If |
| Tx:10.54 | must be meaningless. The next step, then, is obvious. If consistent | truth is meaningless, inconsistency must be true if truth has |
| Tx:10.54 | If consistent truth is meaningless, inconsistency must be true if | truth has meaning. Holding error clearly in mind and protecting what |
| Tx:10.54 | to the next step in its thought system—that error is real, and | truth is error. |
| Tx:10.56 | by it must be deluded. Can the ego teach truly when it overlooks | truth? Can it perceive what it has denied? Its witnesses do attest to |
| Tx:10.57 | must be. Accept what God does not deny, and He will demonstrate its | truth. The witnesses for God stand in His light and behold what He |
| Tx:10.71 | reality. For perceptions cannot be partly true. If you believe in | truth and illusion, you cannot tell which is true. To establish your |
| Tx:10.72 | your Creator, and these beliefs are the world as you perceive it. | Truth is not absent here, but it is obscure. You do not know the |
| Tx:10.77 | No one can withhold | truth except from himself. Yet God will not refuse the answer He gave |
| Tx:10.77 | yours but which you did not make, and do not defend yourself against | truth. You made the problem which God has answered. Ask yourselves, |
| Tx:10.83 | Blessed are you who will ask the | truth of God without fear, for only thus can you learn that His |
| Tx:10.83 | deceive you? The Kingdom of Heaven is within you. Believe that the | truth is in me, for I know that it is in you. God's Sons have nothing |
| Tx:10.83 | is in you. God's Sons have nothing which they do not share. Ask for | truth of any Son of God, and you have asked it of me. No one of us |
| Tx:10.89 | truly, they are not afraid. And because of this, they will ask for | truth again when they are frightened. It is not the reality of your |
| Tx:10.90 | Would you not exchange your fears for | truth if the exchange is yours for the asking? For if God is not |
| Tx:10.90 | in you, you can be deceived only in yourself. Yet you can learn the | truth of yourself of the Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as |
| Tx:11.1 | in error, you would have to make it real because it is not true. But | truth is real in its own right, and to believe in truth, you do not |
| Tx:11.1 | is not true. But truth is real in its own right, and to believe in | truth, you do not have to do anything. Understand that you do not |
| Tx:11.1 | error is to give it power, and having done this, you will overlook | truth. |
| Tx:11.5 | No one with a personal investment is a reliable witness, for | truth to him has become what he wants it to be. If you are unwilling |
| Tx:11.8 | recognize God's answer as you want it to be, and if you want it in | truth, it will be truly yours. Every appeal you answer in the name of |
| Tx:11.9 | the need for escape. The Holy Spirit must still translate it into | truth. If you were left with the fear, having recognized it, you |
| Tx:11.13 | Spirit's interpretation of fear does dispel it, for the awareness of | truth cannot be denied. Thus does the Holy Spirit replace fear with |
| Tx:11.13 | does the Holy Spirit replace fear with love and translate error into | truth. And thus will you learn of Him how to replace your dream of |
| Tx:11.14 | Miracles are merely the translation of denial into | truth. If to love oneself is to heal oneself, those who are sick do |
| Tx:11.14 | heal them but which they are denying to themselves. If they knew the | truth about themselves, they could not be sick. The task of the |
| Tx:11.14 | The task of the miracle-worker thus becomes to deny the denial of | truth. The sick must heal themselves, for the truth is in them. Yet, |
| Tx:11.14 | to deny the denial of truth. The sick must heal themselves, for the | truth is in them. Yet, having obscured it, the light in another mind |
| Tx:11.21 | deny the denial of perfection is not so difficult as the denial of | truth, and what we can accomplish together must be believed when you |
| Tx:11.35 | your perceptions of the world to this altar, for it is the altar to | truth. There you will see your vision changed, and there you will |
| Tx:11.73 | within and see me, it will be because you have decided to manifest | truth. And as you manifest it, you will see it both without and |
| Tx:11.80 | of everything you see. For what you have made invisible is the only | truth, and what you have not heard is the only answer. God would |
| Tx:11.82 | your perception is healed. You have made the invisible the only | truth that this world holds. Valuing nothing, you have sought nothing |
| Tx:11.82 | much distance you have tried to interpose between your awareness and | truth. God's Son can be seen because his vision is shared. The Holy |
| Tx:11.97 | is therefore God's way of reminding you of His Son and what he is in | truth. For God has never condemned His Son, and being guiltless, he |
| Tx:12.4 | we must look upon calmly, for the ego cannot protect you against | truth, and in its presence the ego is dispelled. |
| Tx:12.5 | In the calm light of | truth, let us recognize that you believe you have crucified God's |
| Tx:12.8 | the depth of your fear. For you believe that in the presence of | truth you will turn on yourself and destroy yourself. |
| Tx:12.18 | the Father in loving remembrance of Him. You will find this place of | truth as you see it in your brothers, for though they may deceive |
| Tx:12.44 | themselves as the Holy Spirit sees them. And with this vision of the | truth in them came all the beauty of the world to shine upon them. |
| Tx:12.49 | Let no dark cloud out of your past obscure him from you, for | truth lies only in the present, and you will find it if you seek it |
| Tx:12.51 | on you because you called them forth. And they will not deny the | truth in you because you looked for it in them and found it there. |
| Tx:12.56 | laws of love of your free will and out of quiet recognition of the | truth in them. The attraction of light must draw you willingly, and |
| Tx:13.16 | See no one, then, as guilty, and you will affirm the | truth of guiltlessness unto yourself. In every condemnation that you |
| Tx:13.19 | you. He does not value you as you do. He knows Himself and knows the | truth in you. He knows there is no difference, for He knows not of |
| Tx:13.28 | purity in which you were created. Fear not to look upon the lovely | truth in you. Look through the cloud of guilt that dims your vision, |
| Tx:13.40 | find the answer that makes the need for any differences disappear. | Truth comes of its own will unto its own. When you have learned that |
| Tx:13.40 | its own will unto its own. When you have learned that you belong to | truth, it will flow lightly over you without a difference of any |
| Tx:13.45 | learned that teaches you what is not true must be reconciled with | truth. This is the reconciliation which the ego would substitute for |
| Tx:13.46 | or not remember what has always been? It is this reconciliation with | truth, and only truth, in which the peace of Heaven lies. |
| Tx:13.46 | what has always been? It is this reconciliation with truth, and only | truth, in which the peace of Heaven lies. |
| Tx:13.47 | the Holy Spirit teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for | truth and only truth. |
| Tx:13.47 | teaches you the simple conclusions that speak for truth and only | truth. |
| Tx:13.49 | you would have to do if it had been done unto you? Indirect proof of | truth is needed in a world made of denial and without direction. You |
| Tx:13.50 | your thought system is closed off and wholly separated from the | truth. This is an insane world, and do not underestimate the actual |
| Tx:13.51 | but those he made are his beliefs. And it is these, and not the | truth, that he has chosen to defend and love. They will not be taken |
| Tx:13.53 | learn. His message is not indirect, but He must introduce the simple | truth into a thought system which has become so twisted and so |
| Tx:13.56 | begins His lesson in simplicity with the fundamental teaching that | truth is true. This is the hardest lesson you will ever learn, and in |
| Tx:13.56 | you have woven out of it. Nothing is so alien to you as the simple | truth, and nothing are you less inclined to listen to. The contrast |
| Tx:13.58 | The | truth is true. Nothing else matters, nothing else is real, and |
| Tx:13.58 | it belongs. You will find no deception there but only the simple | truth. And you will love it because you will understand it. |
| Tx:13.59 | Like you, the Holy Spirit did not make | truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He brings the light of truth |
| Tx:13.59 | make truth. Like God, He knows it to be true. He brings the light of | truth into the darkness and lets it shine on you. And as it shines, |
| Tx:13.60 | When you teach anyone that | truth is true, you learn it with him. And so you learn that what |
| Tx:13.61 | the joyous lessons that come quickly on the firm foundation that | truth is true. For what is builded there is true and built on truth. |
| Tx:13.61 | that truth is true. For what is builded there is true and built on | truth. The universe of learning will open up before you in all its |
| Tx:13.61 | will open up before you in all its gracious simplicity. With | truth before you, you will not look back. |
| Tx:13.62 | free you from the past and open up the way to freedom for you. For | truth is true. What else could ever be or ever was? This simple |
| Tx:13.63 | compelling that you will realize it is impossible to deny the simple | truth. For there is nothing else. God is everywhere, and His Son is |
| Tx:13.68 | can decide between is fixed because there are no alternatives except | truth and illusion. And there is no overlap between them because they |
| Tx:13.76 | Would you deny the | truth of God's decision and place your pitiful appraisal of yourself |
| Tx:13.86 | is your Atonement. Grant it to him, and you will see the | truth of what you have acknowledged. Yet truth is offered first to be |
| Tx:13.86 | him, and you will see the truth of what you have acknowledged. Yet | truth is offered first to be received, even as God gave it first to |
| Tx:13.88 | When you have let all that obscured the | truth in your most holy mind be undone for you and stand in grace |
| Tx:13.91 | awaking gladly to His love and holiness, which join together as the | truth in you, making you one with Him. |
| Tx:14.19 | shines guilt away because, when they are brought together, the | truth of one must make the falsity of its opposite perfectly clear. |
| Tx:14.24 | you are. In union, everything that is not real must disappear, for | truth is union. As darkness disappears in light, so ignorance fades |
| Tx:14.24 | the messenger of ignorance rather than a helper in the search for | truth. |
| Tx:14.25 | The search for | truth is but the honest searching out of everything that interferes |
| Tx:14.25 | is but the honest searching out of everything that interferes with | truth. Truth is. It can be neither lost nor sought nor found. It is |
| Tx:14.25 | the honest searching out of everything that interferes with truth. | Truth is. It can be neither lost nor sought nor found. It is there, |
| Tx:14.25 | of fear on which you have erected your insane system of belief, the | truth lies hidden. Yet you cannot know this, for by hiding truth in |
| Tx:14.25 | the truth lies hidden. Yet you cannot know this, for by hiding | truth in fear, you see no reason to believe the more you look at |
| Tx:14.28 | darkness when a mind believes in darkness and will not let it go. | Truth does not struggle against ignorance, and love does not attack |
| Tx:14.28 | making. God knows it not. The Holy Spirit uses defenses on behalf of | truth only because you made them against it. His perception of them, |
| Tx:14.35 | anything except reality. God's glory and His Son's belong to you in | truth. They have no opposite, and nothing else can you bestow upon |
| Tx:14.36 | There is no substitute for | truth. And truth will make this plain to you as you are brought into |
| Tx:14.36 | There is no substitute for truth. And | truth will make this plain to you as you are brought into the place |
| Tx:14.36 | to you as you are brought into the place where you must meet with | truth. And there you must be led, through gentle understanding which |
| Tx:14.36 | can lead you nowhere else. Where God is, there are you. Such is the | truth. Nothing can change the knowledge given you by God into |
| Tx:14.38 | holiness, or what you made to what you are. The bringing together of | truth and illusion, of the ego to God, is the Holy Spirit's only |
| Tx:14.38 | of timelessness lay in the decision to be not as you were. Thus, | truth was made past, and the present was dedicated to illusion. And |
| Tx:14.39 | Bringing the ego to God is but to bring error to | truth, where it stands corrected because it is the opposite of what |
| Tx:14.40 | Merely by being what it is does | truth release you from everything that it is not. The Atonement is so |
| Tx:14.45 | is no image, and His creations, as part of Him, hold Him in them in | truth. They do not merely reflect truth, for they are truth. |
| Tx:14.45 | part of Him, hold Him in them in truth. They do not merely reflect | truth, for they are truth. |
| Tx:14.45 | Him in them in truth. They do not merely reflect truth, for they are | truth. |
| Tx:14.46 | of Heaven here and bring this world to Heaven. For the reflection of | truth draws everyone to truth, and as they enter into it, they leave |
| Tx:14.46 | this world to Heaven. For the reflection of truth draws everyone to | truth, and as they enter into it, they leave all reflections behind. |
| Tx:14.47 | is shared and not reflected. By sharing its reflection here, its | truth becomes the only perception the Son of God accepts. And thus, |
| Tx:14.54 | the ego truly. Yet when two or more join together in searching for | truth, the ego can no longer defend its lack of content. The fact of |
| Tx:14.58 | that it must fail you. For power is not a seeming strength, and | truth is beyond semblance of any kind. Yet all that stands between |
| Tx:14.61 | have taught yourselves unto the light in you can hardly judge the | truth and value of this course. Yet God did not abandon you. And so |
| Tx:14.62 | accomplish this, all your dark lessons must be brought willingly to | truth and joyously laid down by hands open to receive, not closed to |
| Tx:15.16 | take time, when all the obstacles to learning it have been removed? | Truth is so far beyond time that all of it happens at once. For as it |
| Tx:15.39 | and not on time. The reason why this course is simple is that | truth is simple. Complexity is of the ego and is nothing more than |
| Tx:15.48 | chosen to support the ego, as a learning experience which points to | truth. Under His teaching, every relationship becomes a lesson in |
| Tx:15.64 | remembered with Him. For communication is remembered together, as is | truth. There is no exclusion in the holy instant because the past is |
| Tx:15.79 | every sign or token of your willingness to learn of Him what the | truth must be. He is swift to utilize whatever you offer Him on |
| Tx:15.91 | union with Him.] The reality of this relationship becomes the only | truth that you could ever want. All truth is here. |
| Tx:15.91 | relationship becomes the only truth that you could ever want. All | truth is here. |
| Tx:16.8 | from each other. That is not the way, for it leads not to light and | truth. No needs will long be left unmet if you leave them all to Him |
| Tx:16.11 | There is a tendency to fragment and then to be concerned about the | truth of just a little part of the whole. And this is but a way of |
| Tx:16.15 | accepting it for what it is and giving thanks for it? Honor the | truth that has been given you, and be glad you do not understand it. |
| Tx:16.16 | No evidence will convince you of the | truth of what you do not want. Yet your relationship with Him is real |
| Tx:16.16 | gain is there to you in clinging to it and denying the evidence for | truth? For you have come too near to truth to renounce it now, and |
| Tx:16.16 | it and denying the evidence for truth? For you have come too near to | truth to renounce it now, and you will yield to its compelling |
| Tx:16.20 | your faith in them and not in their denial. This year invest in | truth, and let it work in peace. Have faith in what has faith in you. |
| Tx:16.22 | its witnesses and in avoiding those which spoke for the cause of | truth and its effects. |
| Tx:16.24 | that is really outside yourself, not by your own projection, but in | truth. And it is this that you have taken in that is not you. What |
| Tx:16.24 | but beliefs in what is not there. And the seeming conflict between | truth and illusion can only be resolved by separating yourself from |
| Tx:16.24 | be resolved by separating yourself from the illusion and not from | truth. |
| Tx:16.34 | illusion you prefer. There is no conflict in the choice between | truth and illusion. Seen in these terms, no one would hesitate. But |
| Tx:16.36 | Recognize this, for it is true, and | truth must be recognized if it is to be distinguished from illusion: |
| Tx:16.36 | real to you, but which does not exist. You have come very close to | truth, and only this stands between you and the bridge that leads you |
| Tx:16.37 | relationship is but a shabby substitute for what makes you whole in | truth, not in illusion. Your relationship with them is without guilt, |
| Tx:16.39 | deprives you of knowledge, for fantasies are the veil behind which | truth is hidden. To lift the veil which seems so dark and heavy, it |
| Tx:16.39 | the veil which seems so dark and heavy, it is only needful to value | truth beyond all fantasy and to be entirely unwilling to settle for |
| Tx:16.39 | and to be entirely unwilling to settle for illusion in place of | truth. |
| Tx:16.40 | the call of hate, and see no fantasies[, for your completion lies in | truth and nowhere else]. See in the call of hate and in every fantasy |
| Tx:16.41 | Your Father can no more forget the | truth in you than you can fail to remember it. The Holy Spirit is the |
| Tx:16.41 | away from all illusions now, and let nothing stand in the way of | truth. We will take the last foolish journey away from truth |
| Tx:16.41 | in the way of truth. We will take the last foolish journey away from | truth together, and then together we go straight to God in joyous |
| Tx:16.42 | is no veil the love of God in us together cannot lift. The way to | truth is open. Follow it with me. |
| Tx:16.53 | power to what you think you have attacked? So fearful has the | truth become to you that unless it is weak and little, [and unworthy |
| Tx:16.53 | the little self which you have made with power you wrested from | truth, triumphing over it and leaving it helpless. See how exactly is |
| Tx:16.56 | you want them to be true. And to the same extent you are denying | truth, and so are making yourself unable to make the simple choice |
| Tx:16.56 | and so are making yourself unable to make the simple choice between | truth and illusion, God and fantasy. Remember this and you will have |
| Tx:16.57 | a carefully contrived learning experience designed to lead away from | truth and into fantasy. Yet for every learning that would hurt you, |
| Tx:16.57 | not to listen to this course and follow it is but the choice between | truth and illusion. For here is truth separated from illusion and not |
| Tx:16.57 | follow it is but the choice between truth and illusion. For here is | truth separated from illusion and not confused with it at all. |
| Tx:16.67 | has wrought is ugly, fearful, and very dangerous. See no illusion of | truth and beauty there. And be you thankful that there is a place |
| Tx:16.67 | and beauty there. And be you thankful that there is a place where | truth and beauty wait for you. Go on to meet them gladly, and learn |
| Tx:16.75 | Spirit must teach through comparisons and uses opposites to point to | truth. The holy instant is the opposite of the ego's fixed belief in |
| Tx:16.75 | now enfolds you in perfect gentleness. Everything is gone except the | truth. |
| Tx:16.76 | the complete difference in all respects between your experience of | truth and illusion. Yet you will not attempt this long. In the holy |
| Tx:16.79 | Remember that you always choose between | truth and illusion—between the real Atonement which would heal and |
| Tx:16.80 | God. Praise be to your relationship with Him and to no other. The | truth lies here and nowhere else. You choose this or nothing. |
| Tx:17.2 | ask of you conflicting things. What you use in fantasy, you deny to | truth. Yet what you give to truth to use for you is safe from fantasy. |
| Tx:17.2 | What you use in fantasy, you deny to truth. Yet what you give to | truth to use for you is safe from fantasy. |
| Tx:17.3 | all you mean is that there are some things you would withhold from | truth. You believe that truth cannot deal with them only because you |
| Tx:17.3 | are some things you would withhold from truth. You believe that | truth cannot deal with them only because you would keep them from |
| Tx:17.3 | truth cannot deal with them only because you would keep them from | truth. Very simply, your lack of faith in the power that heals all |
| Tx:17.4 | teacher and some to another. And so you learn to deal with part of | truth in one way and in another way the other part. To fragment truth |
| Tx:17.4 | of truth in one way and in another way the other part. To fragment | truth is to destroy it by rendering it meaningless. Orders of reality |
| Tx:17.5 | Think you that you can bring | truth to fantasy and learn what truth means from the perspective of |
| Tx:17.5 | Think you that you can bring truth to fantasy and learn what | truth means from the perspective of illusions? Truth has no meaning |
| Tx:17.5 | and learn what truth means from the perspective of illusions? | Truth has no meaning in illusion. The frame of reference for its |
| Tx:17.5 | of reference for its meaning must be itself. When you try to bring | truth to illusions, you are trying to make illusions real and keep |
| Tx:17.5 | them by justifying your belief in them. But to give illusions to | truth is to enable truth to teach that the illusions are unreal and |
| Tx:17.5 | your belief in them. But to give illusions to truth is to enable | truth to teach that the illusions are unreal and thus enable you to |
| Tx:17.5 | thus enable you to escape from them. Reserve not one idea aside from | truth, or you establish orders of reality which must imprison you. |
| Tx:17.6 | Be willing, then, to give all you have held outside the | truth to Him who knows the truth and in Whom all is brought to truth. |
| Tx:17.6 | to give all you have held outside the truth to Him who knows the | truth and in Whom all is brought to truth. [Salvation from separation |
| Tx:17.6 | the truth to Him who knows the truth and in Whom all is brought to | truth. [Salvation from separation will be complete or will be not at |
| Tx:17.6 | just this same attempt. And you are holding both of you away from | truth and from salvation. As you forgive him, you restore to truth |
| Tx:17.6 | from truth and from salvation. As you forgive him, you restore to | truth what was denied by both of you. And you will see forgiveness |
| Tx:17.8 | everything has been forgiven, and there are no fantasies to hide the | truth. The bridge between that world and this is so little and so |
| Tx:17.16 | these relationships have as their purpose the exclusion of the | truth about the other and of yourself. This is why you see in both |
| Tx:17.24 | retained and all the rest let go. And what is thus let go is all the | truth the past could ever offer to the present as witnesses for its |
| Tx:17.25 | It is still up to you to choose to be willing to join with | truth or illusion. But remember that to choose one is to let the |
| Tx:17.25 | the veil of ugliness, the real world or the world of guilt and fear, | truth or illusion, freedom or slavery—it is all the same. For you |
| Tx:17.26 | through them. They were created to create with you. This is the | truth that I would interpose between you and your goal of madness. Be |
| Tx:17.29 | you have raised their substitutes to such predominance that when | truth calls to you, as it does constantly, you answer with a |
| Tx:17.29 | your minds so completely that you will not hear the call of | truth. In a sense the special relationship was the ego's answer to |
| Tx:17.30 | enabled it to be healed. This blessing holds within itself the | truth about everything. And the truth is that the Holy Spirit is in |
| Tx:17.30 | blessing holds within itself the truth about everything. And the | truth is that the Holy Spirit is in close relationship with you |
| Tx:17.36 | That is why the holy instant is so important in the defense of | truth. The truth itself needs no defense, but you do need defense |
| Tx:17.36 | is why the holy instant is so important in the defense of truth. The | truth itself needs no defense, but you do need defense against your |
| Tx:17.36 | against your own acceptance of the gift of death. When you who are | truth accept an idea so dangerous to truth, you threaten truth with |
| Tx:17.36 | gift of death. When you who are truth accept an idea so dangerous to | truth, you threaten truth with destruction. And your defense must now |
| Tx:17.36 | you who are truth accept an idea so dangerous to truth, you threaten | truth with destruction. And your defense must now be undertaken to |
| Tx:17.36 | with destruction. And your defense must now be undertaken to keep | truth whole. The power of Heaven, the love of God, the tears of |
| Tx:17.55 | You stand together in the holy presence of | truth itself. Here is the goal, together with you. Think you not the |
| Tx:17.60 | approach has brought you closer to the Holy Spirit's sorting out of | truth and falsity. The true becomes what can be used to meet the |
| Tx:17.61 | The goal of | truth has further practical advantages. If the situation is used for |
| Tx:17.61 | truth has further practical advantages. If the situation is used for | truth and sanity, its outcome must be peace. And this is quite apart |
| Tx:17.61 | quite apart from what the outcome is. If peace is the condition of | truth and sanity and cannot be without them, where peace is they must |
| Tx:17.61 | and sanity and cannot be without them, where peace is they must be. | Truth comes of itself. If you experience peace, it is because the |
| Tx:17.61 | Truth comes of itself. If you experience peace, it is because the | truth has come to you, and you will see the outcome truly, for |
| Tx:17.62 | The goal of | truth requires faith. Faith is implicit in the acceptance of the Holy |
| Tx:17.62 | Spirit's purpose, and this faith is all-inclusive. Where the goal of | truth is set, there faith must be. The Holy Spirit sees the situation |
| Tx:17.63 | that this attempt conflicts with unity and must obscure the goal of | truth. And peace will not be experienced except in fantasy. Truth has |
| Tx:17.63 | goal of truth. And peace will not be experienced except in fantasy. | Truth has not come because faith has been denied, being withheld from |
| Tx:17.63 | Thus do you lose the understanding of the situation the goal of | truth would bring. For fantasy solutions bring but the illusion of |
| Tx:17.63 | and the illusion of peace is not the condition in which the | truth can enter. |
| Tx:17.65 | the thoughts are judged to be in conflict. But if the goal is | truth, this is impossible. Some idea of bodies must have entered, for |
| Tx:17.66 | not matter. Faithlessness brought to faith will never interfere with | truth. But faithlessness used against truth will always destroy |
| Tx:17.66 | will never interfere with truth. But faithlessness used against | truth will always destroy faith. If you lack faith, ask that it be |
| Tx:17.69 | The goal of illusion is as closely tied to faithlessness as faith to | truth. If you lack faith in anyone to fulfill, and perfectly, his |
| Tx:17.69 | and perfectly, his part in any situation dedicated in advance to | truth, your dedication is divided. And so you have been faithless to |
| Tx:17.71 | is. What never was is causeless and is not there to interfere with | truth. There is no cause for faithlessness, but there is a Cause for |
| Tx:17.71 | has entered any situation which shares Its purpose. The light of | truth shines from the center of the situation and touches everyone to |
| Tx:17.72 | you once employed to lead you to illusions transformed to means for | truth. [Truth calls for faith, and faith makes room for truth.] When |
| Tx:17.72 | to means for truth. [Truth calls for faith, and faith makes room for | truth.] When the Holy Spirit changed the purpose of your relationship |
| Tx:17.73 | the Holy Spirit's goal are set apart from loneliness because the | truth has come. Its call for faith is strong. Use not your |
| Tx:17.74 | withheld and left unused, that faith might answer to the call of | truth. The holy instant is the shining example, the clear and |
| Tx:17.75 | This simple courtesy is all the Holy Spirit asks of you. Let | truth be what it is. Do not intrude upon it, do not attack it, do not |
| Tx:17.75 | situation and bring you peace. Not even faith is asked of you, for | truth asks nothing. Let it enter, and it will call forth and secure |
| Tx:17.76 | faith can no longer be withheld. The strain of refusing faith to | truth is enormous and far greater than you realize. But to answer |
| Tx:17.76 | to truth is enormous and far greater than you realize. But to answer | truth with faith entails no strain at all. |
| Tx:17.77 | was nothing but the intolerable strain of refusing to give faith to | truth and see its evident reality. |
| Tx:17.79 | When you accepted | truth as the goal for your relationship, you became givers of peace |
| Tx:18.4 | has taken many forms because it was the substitution of illusion for | truth, of fragmentation for wholeness. It has become so splintered |
| Tx:18.4 | once was one and still is what it was. That one error, which brought | truth to illusion, infinity to time, and life to death, was all you |
| Tx:18.6 | the screen on which it was projected and drawn between you and the | truth. For truth extends inward, where the idea of loss is |
| Tx:18.6 | on which it was projected and drawn between you and the truth. For | truth extends inward, where the idea of loss is meaningless and only |
| Tx:18.6 | backwards and upside-down arose from this? [It was inevitable.] For | truth brought to this could only remain within in quiet and take no |
| Tx:18.7 | The | truth will save you. It has not left you to go out into the mad world |
| Tx:18.7 | insanity is outside you. You but believe it is the other way; that | truth is outside and error and guilt within. Your little senseless |
| Tx:18.8 | your mad journey outside yourself, leading you gently back to the | truth and safety within. He brings all your insane projections and |
| Tx:18.8 | and your wild substitutions which you have placed outside you to the | truth. Thus He reverses the course of insanity and restores you to |
| Tx:18.9 | of everything at your request, He has set the course inward to the | truth you share. In the mad world outside you, nothing can be shared |
| Tx:18.9 | is holy ground in which no substitution can enter and where only the | truth about each other can abide. Here you are joined in God, as much |
| Tx:18.9 | error has not entered here, nor ever will. Here is the radiant | truth to which the Holy Spirit has committed your relationship. Let |
| Tx:18.10 | You are so firmly joined in | truth that only God is there. And He would never accept something |
| Tx:18.11 | entered quietly, for all illusions have been gently brought unto the | truth in you and love has shined upon you, blessing your relationship |
| Tx:18.11 | in you and love has shined upon you, blessing your relationship with | truth. God and His whole creation have entered it together. How |
| Tx:18.11 | it together. How lovely and how holy is your relationship, with the | truth shining upon it! Heaven beholds it and rejoices that you have |
| Tx:18.15 | have of how perception can be utilized to substitute illusions for | truth. You do not take them seriously on awaking because the fact |
| Tx:18.22 | because its purpose has been changed from one of dreams to one of | truth. You are not sure of this because you think it may be this that |
| Tx:18.22 | you do not see that you have made, at last, the choice between the | truth and all illusions. |
| Tx:18.23 | is sure. This is no dream. Its coming means that you have chosen | truth, and it has come because you have been willing to let your |
| Tx:18.23 | represent the same wishes in your mind, so do the real world and the | truth of Heaven join in the Will of God. The dream of waking is |
| Tx:18.24 | You who have spent your lives in bringing | truth to illusion, reality to fantasy, have walked the way of dreams. |
| Tx:18.24 | And you sought a blackness so complete that you could hide from | truth forever in complete insanity. What you forgot was simply that |
| Tx:18.25 | light comes nearer, you will rush to darkness, shrinking from the | truth, sometimes retreating to the lesser forms of fear and sometimes |
| Tx:18.25 | But you will advance because your goal is the advance from fear to | truth. You know this. The goal which you accepted is the goal of |
| Tx:18.25 | light, and it will be enough to remind you that your goal is light. | Truth has rushed to meet you since you called upon it. |
| Tx:18.28 | separate, for I stand with you and walk with you in your advance to | truth. And where we go, we carry God with us. |
| Tx:18.39 | still convinced your understanding is a powerful contribution to the | truth and makes it what it is. Yet we have emphasized that you need |
| Tx:18.41 | of what never was. If you already understood the difference between | truth and illusion, the Atonement would have no meaning. The holy |
| Tx:19.1 | We said before that when a situation has been dedicated wholly to | truth, peace is inevitable. Its attainment is the criterion by which |
| Tx:19.1 | faith will never be attained, for what is wholly dedicated to | truth as its only goal is brought to truth by faith. This faith |
| Tx:19.1 | for what is wholly dedicated to truth as its only goal is brought to | truth by faith. This faith encompasses everyone involved, for only |
| Tx:19.3 | illusion, acting accordingly; seeing what is not there, hearing what | truth has never said, and behaving insanely, being imprisoned by |
| Tx:19.4 | for you have made of it an “enemy” of healing and the opposite of | truth. |
| Tx:19.5 | Faithlessness is wholly dedicated to illusions; faith wholly to | truth. Partial dedication is impossible. Truth is the absence of |
| Tx:19.5 | illusions; faith wholly to truth. Partial dedication is impossible. | Truth is the absence of illusion; illusion the absence of truth. |
| Tx:19.5 | Truth is the absence of illusion; illusion the absence of | truth. |
| Tx:19.7 | together, and when they are seen together, all attempts to keep both | truth and illusion in the mind, where both must be, are recognized as |
| Tx:19.7 | recognized as dedication to illusion and given up when brought to | truth and seen as totally irreconcilable with truth in any respect or |
| Tx:19.7 | up when brought to truth and seen as totally irreconcilable with | truth in any respect or in any way. |
| Tx:19.8 | Truth and illusion have no connection. This will remain forever true, | |
| Tx:19.8 | you seek to connect them. But illusions are always connected, as is | truth. Each is united, a complete thought system, but totally |
| Tx:19.8 | seems to keep your identification safe from the “attack” of | truth. |
| Tx:19.15 | He would make of it. For faith brings peace, and so it calls on | truth to enter and make lovely what has already been prepared for |
| Tx:19.15 | enter and make lovely what has already been prepared for loveliness. | Truth follows faith and peace, completing the process of making |
| Tx:19.15 | goal, no longer needed when the lesson has been learned. Yet | truth will stay forever. |
| Tx:19.20 | tenet in the ego's insane religion is that sin is not error but | truth, and it is innocence that would deceive. Purity is seen as |

| Tx:19.22 | and decay. If this is a mistake, it can be undone easily by | truth. Any mistake can be corrected, if truth be left to judge it. |
| Tx:19.22 | it can be undone easily by truth. Any mistake can be corrected, if | truth be left to judge it. But if the mistake is given the status of |
| Tx:19.22 | truth be left to judge it. But if the mistake is given the status of | truth, to what can it be brought? The “holiness” of sin is kept in |
| Tx:19.22 | “holiness” of sin is kept in place by just this strange device. As | truth it is inviolate, and everything is brought to it for judgment. |
| Tx:19.22 | is brought to it for judgment. As a mistake, it must be brought to | truth. It is impossible to have faith in sin, for sin is |
| Tx:19.45 | illusion. Such was the journey; such its ending. And in the goal of | truth which you accepted must all illusions end. |
| Tx:19.48 | How mighty can a little feather be before the great wings of | truth? Can it oppose an eagle's flight or hinder the advance of |
| Tx:19.49 | look on guilt at all. It is the nature of love to look upon only the | truth, for there it sees itself, with which it would unite in holy |
| Tx:19.66 | From your holy relationship | truth proclaims the truth, and love looks on itself. Salvation flows |
| Tx:19.66 | From your holy relationship truth proclaims the | truth, and love looks on itself. Salvation flows from deep within the |

| Tx:19.88 | And they may thus mean everything or nothing, according to the | truth or falsity of the idea which they reflect. Confronted with such |
| Tx:19.97 | you see its weakness and learn it has no power to keep you from the | truth. The Guide Who brought you here remains with you, and when you |
| Tx:20.1 | is Palm Sunday, the celebration of victory and the acceptance of the | truth. Let us not spend this holy week brooding on the crucifixion of |
| Tx:20.2 | between the journey and its purpose; between the acceptance of the | truth and its expression. This week we celebrate life, not death. And |
| Tx:20.16 | adjustments necessary because they are not true. Who need adjust to | truth, which calls on only what he is, to understand? |
| Tx:20.18 | The holy do not interfere with | truth. They are not afraid of it, for it is within the truth they |
| Tx:20.18 | with truth. They are not afraid of it, for it is within the | truth they recognized their holiness and rejoiced at what they saw. |
| Tx:20.22 | There is a stranger in him who wandered carelessly into the home of | truth, and who will wander off. He came without a purpose, but he |
| Tx:20.23 | tiny and so meaningless it slips unnoticed through the universe of | truth, becomes your guide. To it you turn to ask the meaning of the |
| Tx:20.23 | universe. And of the one blind thing in all the seeing universe of | truth you ask, “How shall I look upon the Son of God?” |
| Tx:20.24 | would you believe the answer and adjust to it as if it were the | truth? The world you look on is the answer that it gave you, and you |
| Tx:20.54 | it will endure forever. Its firm foundation is eternally upheld by | truth, and love shines on it with the gentle smile and tender |
| Tx:20.61 | where they cannot be. And both must be undone for purposes of | truth. |
| Tx:20.63 | and reality kept separated. Here are illusions never brought to | truth and always hidden from it. And here in darkness is your |
| Tx:20.67 | enough to show you what is given you who see your brother sinless. | Truth is restored to you through your desire, as it was lost to you |
| Tx:20.70 | shelter for God's Son? Why would you rather look on it than on the | truth? How can the engine of destruction be preferred and chosen to |
| Tx:21.19 | Be willing, then, to have it taken from him and be replaced with | truth. And as you look upon the change in him, it will be given you |
| Tx:21.22 | therefore seem unreal. All that is asked of you is to make room for | truth. You are not asked to make or do what lies beyond your |
| Tx:21.28 | Yet the | truth is you were both created by a loving Father Who created you |
| Tx:21.30 | accept this change, you have accepted the idea of making room for | truth. The source of sin is gone. You may imagine that you still |
| Tx:21.43 | relationship is one in which you join with what is part of you in | truth. And your belief in sin has been already shaken, nor are you |
| Tx:21.56 | can be misplaced and serve the great deceiver's needs as well as | truth. But reason has no place at all in madness, nor can it be |
| Tx:21.64 | be fearful unless it disagrees with what you hold more dear than | truth? Reason will tell you that this fact is your release. Neither |
| Tx:21.65 | it is the means, leads steadily away from madness toward the goal of | truth. And here you will lay down the burden of denying truth. This |
| Tx:21.65 | the goal of truth. And here you will lay down the burden of denying | truth. This is the burden that is terrible, and not the truth. |
| Tx:21.65 | of denying truth. This is the burden that is terrible, and not the | truth. |
| Tx:21.75 | and cannot sin? And do I want to see what I denied because it is the | truth? |
| Tx:21.76 | for you. And this imagined difference attests to your belief that | truth may be the enemy you yet may find. Here, then, would seem to be |
| Tx:21.77 | Forget not that the choice of | truth or sin, power or helplessness, is the choice of whether to |
| Tx:21.81 | are decisions which can be made and then unmade and made again. But | truth is constant and implies a state where vacillations are |
| Tx:21.85 | he wanted happiness. Yet he did not desire it because it was the | truth and therefore must be constant. |
| Tx:22.3 | he would take. He denies not his own reality, because it is the | truth. Just under Heaven does he stand, but close enough not to |
| Tx:22.9 | your sight would show you, you will understand because it is the | truth. Only your vision can convey to you what you can see. It |
| Tx:22.13 | Such did his reason tell him; such he believed because it was the | truth. |
| Tx:22.14 | that the “something else” you thought was you is an illusion. And | truth came instantly to show you where your Self must be. It is |
| Tx:22.14 | you where your Self must be. It is denial of illusions that calls on | truth, for to deny illusions is to recognize that fear is |
| Tx:22.16 | The opposite of illusions is not disillusionment, but | truth. Only to the ego, to which truth is meaningless, do they appear |
| Tx:22.16 | is not disillusionment, but truth. Only to the ego, to which | truth is meaningless, do they appear to be the only alternatives and |
| Tx:22.16 | appear to be the only alternatives and different from each other. In | truth they are the same. Both bring the same amount of misery, though |
| Tx:22.16 | are those who seek illusions covered and hidden from the joy of | truth. |
| Tx:22.17 | Truth is the opposite of illusions because it offers joy. What else | |
| Tx:22.18 | if the change be real and not imagined, illusions must give way to | truth and not to other dreams that are but equally unreal. This is no |
| Tx:22.19 | way to escape from misery is to recognize it and go the other way. | Truth is the same and misery the same, but they are different from |
| Tx:22.19 | what is different. One illusion cherished and defended against the | truth makes all truth meaningless and all illusions real. Such is the |
| Tx:22.19 | One illusion cherished and defended against the truth makes all | truth meaningless and all illusions real. Such is the power of |
| Tx:22.25 | news to hear not one of the illusions that you made replaced the | truth? |
| Tx:22.26 | the function of an executioner you gave him for the one he has in | truth? Receive of him what God has given him for you, not what you |
| Tx:22.33 | the outside of everything, the wall that stands between you and the | truth, is wholly true. Yet how can sight which stops at nothingness |
| Tx:22.35 | must be distorted perception and must perceive illusions as the | truth. Could it then recognize the truth? |
| Tx:22.35 | must perceive illusions as the truth. Could it then recognize the | truth? |
| Tx:22.43 | block their way before. This veil you lift together opens the way to | truth to more than you. Those who would let illusions be lifted from |
| Tx:22.45 | because of weakness. And how can it be difficult to walk the way of | truth when only weakness interferes? You are the strong ones in this |
| Tx:22.46 | the ego wants defenses for—always to justify what goes against the | truth, flies in the face of reason, and makes no sense. Can this be |
| Tx:22.46 | can this be except an invitation to insanity to save you from the | truth? And what would you be saved from but what you fear? Belief in |
| Tx:22.47 | See how the means and the material of evil dreams are nothing. In | truth you stand together with nothing in between. God holds your |
| Tx:22.49 | This body only seems to be immovable; this Force is irresistible in | truth. What, then, must happen when they come together? Can the |
| Tx:22.50 | solid and immovable, between you and your brother. And not one that | truth cannot pass over lightly and so easily that you must be |
| Tx:22.63 | it is necessary that you have other experiences more in line with | truth to teach you what is natural and true. |
| Tx:22.65 | obscured. What teaches you you cannot separate, denies the ego. Let | truth decide if you be different or the same and teach you which is |
| Tx:23.3 | innocence. Nothing they see is harmful, for their awareness of the | truth releases everything from the illusion of harmfulness. And what |
| Tx:23.4 | of guilt in innocence. Think what a happy world you walk with | truth beside you! Do not give up this world of freedom for a little |
| Tx:23.11 | think you are a body, you will believe you have forgotten it. Yet | truth can never be forgotten by itself, and you have not forgotten |
| Tx:23.12 | conquers will be true. There is no conflict between them and the | truth. Nor are they different from each other. Both are not true. And |
| Tx:23.12 | reality and has no influence upon it. Illusions cannot triumph over | truth, nor can they threaten it in any way. And the reality which |
| Tx:23.13 | you remember is a part of you. For you must be as God created you. | Truth does not fight against illusions, nor do illusions fight |
| Tx:23.13 | does not fight against illusions, nor do illusions fight against the | truth. Illusions battle only with themselves. Being fragmented, they |
| Tx:23.13 | battle only with themselves. Being fragmented, they fragment. But | truth is indivisible and far beyond their little reach. You will |
| Tx:23.13 | nothing happens. There is no victor, and there is no victory. And | truth stands radiant, apart from conflict, untouched and quiet in the |
| Tx:23.15 | See how the conflict of illusions disappears when it is brought to | truth! For it seems real only as long as it is seen as war between |
| Tx:23.18 | Illusion meets illusion; | truth, itself. The meeting of illusions leads to war. Peace, looking |
| Tx:23.19 | sphere. Yet they appear to constitute an obstacle to reason and to | truth. Let us, then, look upon them calmly, that we may look beyond |
| Tx:23.19 | because it is their purpose to make meaningless and to attack the | truth. Here are the laws that rule the world you made. And yet they |
| Tx:23.20 | The first chaotic law is that the | truth is different for everyone. Like all these principles, this one |
| Tx:23.21 | the first principle of miracles. For this establishes degrees of | truth among illusions, making it appear that some of them are harder |
| Tx:23.21 | any kind can be corrected because they are untrue. When brought to | truth instead of to each other, they merely disappear. No part of |
| Tx:23.21 | merely disappear. No part of nothing can be more resistant to the | truth than can another. |
| Tx:23.24 | it. It is not seen as even necessary that He be asked about the | truth of what has been established for His belief. His Son can tell |
| Tx:23.32 | that it is true. It is the function of insanity to take the place of | truth. It must be seen as truth to be believed. And if it is the |
| Tx:23.32 | function of insanity to take the place of truth. It must be seen as | truth to be believed. And if it is the truth, then must its opposite, |
| Tx:23.32 | of truth. It must be seen as truth to be believed. And if it is the | truth, then must its opposite, which was the truth before, be madness |
| Tx:23.32 | And if it is the truth, then must its opposite, which was the | truth before, be madness now. Such a reversal, completely turned |
| Tx:23.34 | we have seen how it appears to function many times before. In | truth it does not function, yet in dreams, where only shadows play |
| Tx:23.39 | of truth's reversal, leading still deeper into terror and away from | truth. Think not one step is smaller than another nor that return |
| Tx:23.47 | is not loving must be an attack. Every illusion is an assault on | truth, and every one does violence to the idea of love because it |
| Tx:23.47 | does violence to the idea of love because it seems to be of equal | truth. |
| Tx:23.48 | What can be equal to the | truth yet different? Murder and love are incompatible. Yet if they |
| Tx:23.51 | be perceived as nothingness when you engage in it? How can the | truth of miracles be recognized if murder is your choice? |
| Tx:24.2 | is no substitute for peace. What God creates has no alternative. The | truth arises from what He knows. And your decisions come from your |
| Tx:24.11 | Those who are special must defend illusions against the | truth. For what is specialness but an attack upon the Will of God? |
| Tx:24.13 | an alien will to which illusions of yourself are dearer than the | truth. |
| Tx:24.14 | of peace and wrapped it carefully in sin to keep it “safe” from | truth. |
| Tx:24.15 | If you think you are and would defend your specialness against the | truth of what you really are, how can you know the truth? What answer |
| Tx:24.15 | against the truth of what you really are, how can you know the | truth? What answer that the Holy Spirit gives can reach you, when it |
| Tx:24.16 | one a different message, and one with different meaning, is the | truth. Yet how can truth be different to each one? The special |
| Tx:24.16 | message, and one with different meaning, is the truth. Yet how can | truth be different to each one? The special messages the special hear |
| Tx:24.17 | in its defense against himself will vanish as his mind accepts the | truth about himself as it returns to take their place. This is the |
| Tx:24.17 | as it returns to take their place. This is the only “cost” of | truth: you will no longer see what never was, nor hear what makes no |
| Tx:24.18 | Nor will you change his function, any more than you can change the | truth in him and in yourself. But be you certain that the truth is |
| Tx:24.18 | change the truth in him and in yourself. But be you certain that the | truth is just the same in both. It gives no different messages and |
| Tx:24.18 | dream of specialness remain between you. What is one is joined in | truth. |
| Tx:24.20 | You have come far along the way of | truth—too far to falter now. Just one step more and every vestige |
| Tx:24.20 | so remote that they cannot be reached. Here in this holy place does | truth stand waiting to receive you both in silent blessing and in |
| Tx:24.22 | the same as God is one with Him. And only specialness could make the | truth of God and you as one seem anything but Heaven and the hope of |
| Tx:24.24 | and in loneliness your special kingdom, apart from God, away from | truth and from salvation. |
| Tx:24.28 | you did not anticipate upsets your world and hurls it into chaos. | Truth is not frail. Illusions leave it perfectly unmoved [and |
| Tx:24.28 | it perfectly unmoved [and undisturbed]. But specialness is not the | truth in you. It can be thrown off balance by anything. What rests on |
| Tx:24.37 | but only in the sense that all illusions are “threatened” by the | truth. They will not stand before it. Yet what comfort has ever been |
| Tx:24.38 | brother's sins would justify itself and give it meaning that the | truth denies. All that is real proclaims his sinlessness. All that is |
| Tx:24.42 | arise but from forgiveness? The Christ in you looks only on the | truth and sees no condemnation that could need forgiveness. He is at |
| Tx:24.53 | freedom yours, for such it is. Let not his specialness obscure the | truth in him, for not one law of death you bind him to will you |
| Tx:24.55 | situations and through time which seems to have no end until the | truth be your decision. For eternity is not regained by still one |
| Tx:24.55 | Him He set forever in your brother's holiness that you might see the | truth about yourself set forth at last in terms you recognized and |
| Tx:24.59 | grim determination was for this—you wanted specialness to be the | truth. |
| Tx:24.60 | and tedious, too heavy to be borne. Yet to the dedication to the | truth as God established it no sacrifice is asked, no strain called |
| Tx:24.60 | no strain called forth, and all the power of Heaven and the might of | truth itself is given to provide the means and guarantee the goal's |
| Tx:24.62 | tied to this world defend the specialness he wants to be the | truth! His wish is law unto him, and he obeys. Nothing his |
| Tx:24.64 | to know it is in his holiness? Seek not to make your specialness the | truth, for if it were, you would be lost indeed. Be thankful, rather, |
| Tx:24.64 | rather, it is given you to see his holiness because it is the | truth. And what is true in him must be as true in you. |
| Tx:24.65 | own. Weave, rather then, a frame of holiness around him that the | truth may shine on him and give you safety from decay. |
| Tx:24.66 | purpose and is means for nothing. Whatever is perceived as means for | truth shares in its holiness and rests in light as safely as itself. |
| Tx:24.71 | body testify to the idea that made it and speak for its reality and | truth. |
| Tx:24.72 | thus does his perception serve his wish by giving it appearances of | truth. Yet can perception serve another goal. It is not bound to |
| Tx:25.8 | Heaven presents itself to you as separate too. Not that it is in | truth, but that the link that has been given you to join the truth |
| Tx:25.8 | is in truth, but that the link that has been given you to join the | truth may reach to you through what you understand. Father and Son |
| Tx:25.8 | Son and Holy Spirit are as One, as all your brothers join as one in | truth. Christ and His Father never have been separate, and Christ |
| Tx:25.10 | it is. And It must use all learning to transfer illusions to the | truth, taking all false ideas of what you are and leading you beyond |
| Tx:25.10 | all false ideas of what you are and leading you beyond them to the | truth that is beyond them. All this can very simply be reduced to |
| Tx:25.30 | preserved. But to forgive it is to change its state from error into | truth. |
| Tx:25.36 | for a little while. How better could your own mistakes be brought to | truth than by your willingness to bring the light of Heaven with you |
| Tx:25.37 | to have. And no one could believe in one unless the other were the | truth, for each attests the other must be true. |
| Tx:25.40 | If you decide against his proper function, the only one he has in | truth, you are depriving him of all the joy he would have found if he |
| Tx:25.52 | and has no meaning is insanity. And what is madness cannot be the | truth. If one belief so deeply valued here were true, then every |
| Tx:25.53 | created him. And if he chooses to believe one thought opposed to | truth, he has decided he is not his Father's Son because the Son is |
| Tx:25.53 | rests on sin. Who could create the changeless if it does not rest on | truth? |
| Tx:25.55 | gentle eyes would look beyond the madness and rest peacefully on | truth. Each sees a world immutable, as each defines the changeless |
| Tx:25.55 | sees a world immutable, as each defines the changeless and eternal | truth of what you are. And each reflects a view of what the Father |
| Tx:25.61 | be a gainer. Here is sanity restored. And on this single rock of | truth can faith in God's eternal saneness rest in perfect confidence |
| Tx:25.62 | and in Him no loss is possible. And this is sane because it is the | truth. |
| Tx:25.70 | but have a Judge Who knows that they are wholly innocent in | truth. In justice, He is bound to set them free and give them all the |
| Tx:25.78 | possible will you hold dear that sin be kept in place. You mean that | truth has greater value now than all illusions. And you recognize |
| Tx:25.78 | has greater value now than all illusions. And you recognize that | truth must be revealed to you because you know not what it is. |
| Tx:26.4 | seen within a world of separate bodies, however much he witnesses to | truth? He is invisible in such a world. Nor can his song of union and |
| Tx:26.5 | Those who would see the witnesses to | truth instead of to illusion merely ask that they might see a purpose |
| Tx:26.11 | corrected. One mistake is not more difficult for Him to bring to | truth than is another. For there is but one mistake—the whole idea |
| Tx:26.18 | when all He knows is one? He knows of one creation, one reality, one | truth, and but one Son. Nothing conflicts with oneness. How, then, |
| Tx:26.18 | there to decide? For it is conflict that makes choice [complex]. The | truth is simple—it is one, without an opposite. And how could |
| Tx:26.18 | in its simple presence and bring complexity where oneness is? The | truth makes no decisions, for there is nothing to decide between. And |
| Tx:26.19 | conflicting values meet and all illusions are laid down beside the | truth where they are judged to be untrue. This borderland is just |
| Tx:26.20 | here in that the words imply a limited reality, a partial | truth, a segment of the universe made true. This is because knowledge |
| Tx:26.21 | Nothing the Son of God believes can be destroyed. But what is | truth to him must be brought to the last comparison that he will ever |
| Tx:26.21 | the final judgment upon this world. It is the judgment of the | truth upon illusion, of knowledge on perception—it has no meaning |
| Tx:26.29 | was perceived will rise a world which will become an altar to the | truth, and you will join the lights of Heaven there and sing their |
| Tx:26.33 | saw but for an instant, long ago before its unreality gave way to | truth. Not one illusion still remains unanswered in your mind. |
| Tx:26.37 | in place of what is really now and here. Is this a hindrance to the | truth the past is gone and cannot be returned to you? And do you want |
| Tx:26.44 | to keep the ones which he prefers and find the safety that the | truth alone can give? Who can believe illusions are the same and |
| Tx:26.45 | God appointed has no substitute, for what illusion can replace the | truth? |
| Tx:26.46 | God has called your Friend. And it is He who is your only Friend in | truth. He brings you gifts that are not of this world, and only He to |
| Tx:26.48 | Guilt asks for punishment, and its request is granted—not in | truth but in the world of shadows and illusions built on sin. The Son |
| Tx:26.48 | changes, made to take the place of changeless knowledge. Yet is | truth unchanged. It cannot be perceived, but only known. What is |
| Tx:26.48 | What is perceived takes many forms, but none has meaning. Brought to | truth, its senselessness is quite apparent. Kept apart from truth, it |
| Tx:26.48 | to truth, its senselessness is quite apparent. Kept apart from | truth, it seems to have a meaning and be real. |
| Tx:26.49 | Perception's laws are opposite to | truth, and what is true of knowledge is not true of anything that is |
| Tx:26.50 | laws must be reversed, because they are reversals of the laws of | truth. The laws of truth forever will be true and cannot be reversed, |
| Tx:26.50 | because they are reversals of the laws of truth. The laws of | truth forever will be true and cannot be reversed, yet can be seen as |
| Tx:26.51 | It is impossible that one illusion be less amenable to | truth than are the rest. But it is possible that some are given |
| Tx:26.51 | that some are given greater value and less willingly offered to | truth for healing and for help. No illusion has any truth in it. Yet |
| Tx:26.51 | offered to truth for healing and for help. No illusion has any | truth in it. Yet it appears some are more true than others, although |
| Tx:26.51 | is preference, not reality. What relevance has preference to the | truth? Illusions are illusions and are false. Your preference gives |
| Tx:26.51 | any wish that seems to go against His Will has no foundation in the | truth. |
| Tx:26.53 | Nothing gives meaning where no meaning is. And | truth needs no defense to make it true. Illusions have no witnesses |
| Tx:26.56 | perfect and complete. What is forgiveness but a willingness that | truth be true? What can remain unhealed and broken from a Unity Which |
| Tx:26.63 | but calls your ancient name, which you will recognize because the | truth is in your memory. And to this name, your brother calls for his |
| Tx:26.67 | be recognized by those who know it not. And by this little gift of | truth but let to be itself—the Son of God allowed to be himself and |
| Tx:27.5 | therefore never suffered pain at all. It witnesses to the eternal | truth that you cannot be hurt and points beyond itself to both your |
| Tx:27.11 | message it received and by its health and loveliness proclaim the | truth and value that it represents. Let it receive the power to |
| Tx:27.14 | is not pity which but seeks to pardon what it knows to be the | truth. Good cannot be returned for evil, for forgiveness does not |
| Tx:27.32 | seen as spent and fully occupied, becomes a silent invitation to the | truth to enter and to make itself at home. No preparation can be made |
| Tx:27.32 | you leave as vacant, God will fill, and where He is, there must the | truth abide. Unweakened power with no opposite is what creation is. |
| Tx:27.32 | is. For this there are no symbols. Nothing points beyond the | truth, for what can stand for more than everything? Yet true undoing |
| Tx:27.33 | you have chosen to impose. Forgiveness is the means by which the | truth is represented temporarily. It lets the Holy Spirit make |
| Tx:27.56 | not make a witness true because you called him by truth's name. The | truth is found in him if it is truth he represents. And otherwise he |
| Tx:27.56 | you called him by truth's name. The truth is found in him if it is | truth he represents. And otherwise he lies, if you should call him by |
| Tx:27.61 | may heal, and suffer not the laws of sin to be applied to you. And | truth will be revealed to you who chose to let love's symbols take |
| Tx:27.67 | They support its claim on your allegiance. What conceals the | truth is not where you should look to find the truth. The witnesses |
| Tx:27.67 | What conceals the truth is not where you should look to find the | truth. The witnesses to sin all stand within one little space. And it |
| Tx:27.71 | a tiny you and an enormous world, with different dreams about the | truth in you. The gap between reality and dreams lies not between the |
| Tx:27.84 | The world but demonstrates an ancient | truth—you will believe that others do to you exactly what you think |
| Tx:27.86 | Whoever takes the role of enemy and of attacker, still is this the | truth. Whatever seems to be the cause of any pain and suffering you |
| Tx:27.87 | hurt you bring to Him He will make answer with this very simple | truth. For this one answer takes away the cause of every form of |
| Tx:28.3 | It is an unselective memory, which is not used to interfere with | truth. All things the Holy Spirit can employ for healing have been |
| Tx:28.6 | all the other attributes with which you seek to keep concealed the | truth about yourself. Time neither takes away nor can restore. And |
| Tx:28.42 | own as well. Your dreams are witnesses to his, and his attest the | truth of yours. Yet if you see there is no truth in yours, his dreams |
| Tx:28.42 | his, and his attest the truth of yours. Yet if you see there is no | truth in yours, his dreams will [disappear before his eyes], and he |
| Tx:28.49 | are your Self or an illusion. What can be between illusion and the | truth? A middle ground where you can be a thing that is not you must |

| Tx:28.50 | You have conceived a little gap between illusions and the | truth to be the place where all your safety lies and where your Self |

| Tx:29.10 | suffering to learn that you are free? Why would you not acclaim the | truth, instead of looking on it as an enemy? Why does an easy path, |

| Tx:29.48 | All idols of this world were made to keep the | truth within from being known to you and to maintain allegiance to |
| Tx:29.50 | of your reality an idol which you must protect against the light of | truth. And all the world becomes the means by which this idol can be |
| Tx:29.56 | gift of Heaven and eternal peace. The miracle does not restore the | truth, the light the veil between has not put out. It merely lifts |
| Tx:29.56 | veil between has not put out. It merely lifts the veil and lets the | truth shine unencumbered, being what it is. It does not need belief |

| Tx:30.49 | you will not see you made it up. You always fight illusions. For the | truth behind them is so lovely and so still in loving gentleness, |
| Tx:30.49 | you would forget defensiveness entirely and rush to its embrace. The | truth could never be attacked. And this you knew when you made idols. |
| Tx:30.53 | They but obscure reality, and they bring fear because they hide the | truth. Do not attack what you have made to let you be deceived, for |
| Tx:30.73 | a fearful judgment which your brother does not merit. For it is the | truth that you can merit neither more nor less than he. |
| Tx:30.76 | must remain apart from healing, one illusion must be part of | truth. And you could not escape all guilt, but only some of it. You |
| Tx:30.76 | forgive. And so there cannot be appearances which have replaced the | truth about God's Son. |

| Tx:31.12 | free because an ancient learning passed away and left a place for | truth to be reborn. |
| Tx:31.13 | by the opposing of the new and old. It is not vanquished that the | truth be known nor fought against to lose to truth's appeal. There is |

| Tx:31.49 | of the world, which cannot make a single picture representing | truth. |
| Tx:31.59 | you know not what you are. It is to this unsealed and open mind that | truth returns, unhindered and unbound. Where concepts of the self |
| Tx:31.59 | and unbound. Where concepts of the self have been laid by is | truth revealed exactly as it is. When every concept has been raised |
| Tx:31.59 | as made on no assumptions which would stand the light, then is the | truth left free to enter in its sanctuary, clean and free of guilt. |
| Tx:31.65 | It matters not where you believe you are nor what you think the | truth about yourself must really be. It makes no difference what you |
| Tx:31.66 | be, forget not that no concept of yourself will stand against the | truth of what you are. Undoing truth would be impossible. But |
| Tx:31.66 | of yourself will stand against the truth of what you are. Undoing | truth would be impossible. But concepts are not difficult to change. |

| W1:8.3 | thinking at all. While thoughtless “ideas” preoccupy your mind, the | truth is blocked. Recognizing that your mind has been merely blank, |
| W1:12.8 | upset you? If you could accept the world as meaningless and let the | truth be written upon it for you, it would make you indescribably |
| W1:12.8 | it be. It is this you see in it. It is this that is meaningless in | truth. Beneath your words is written the Word of God. The truth |
| W1:12.8 | in truth. Beneath your words is written the Word of God. The | truth upsets you now, but when your words have been erased, you will |
| W1:16.2 | can hardly be called idle. Every thought you have contributes to | truth or to illusion; either it extends the truth or it multiplies |
| W1:16.2 | you have contributes to truth or to illusion; either it extends the | truth or it multiplies illusions. You can indeed multiply nothing, |
| W1:35.3 | your Identity, and it describes you as you must really be in | truth. We will use a somewhat different kind of application for |
| W1:41.4 | understand that you do not believe all this. How could you, when the | truth is hidden deep within under a heavy cloud of insane thoughts, |
| W1:43.1 | as the Holy Spirit sees it. Therefore, that is its function in | truth. |
| W1:45.4 | the unreal and seek for the real. We will deny the world in favor of | truth. We will not let the thoughts of the world hold us back, and we |
| W1:45.8 | Then try to go past all the unreal thoughts that cover the | truth in your mind, and reach to the eternal. |
| W1:48.1 | to those who believe in illusions, but illusions are not facts. In | truth there is nothing to fear. It is very easy to recognize this. |
| W1:49.1 | your regular activities in any way. The part of your mind in which | truth abides is in constant communication with God, whether you are |
| W1:50.3 | release from the belief in idols. It is your acknowledgment of the | truth about yourself. |
| W1:50.4 | think about it, let related thoughts come to help you recognize its | truth, and allow peace to flow over you like a blanket of protection |
| W1:55.2 | I do not know who I am. I am determined to see the witnesses to the | truth in me, rather than those that show me an illusion of myself. |
| W1:55.6 | purpose by withdrawing the one I have given it, and learning the | truth about it. |
| W1:56.3 | essential that I let this image of myself go. As it is replaced by | truth, vision will surely be given me. And with this vision, I will |
| W1:56.4 | guarantees its continuance. While I see the world as I see it now, | truth cannot enter my awareness. I would let the door behind this |
| W1:56.5 | [29] God is in everything I see. Behind every image I have made, the | truth remains unchanged. Behind every veil I have drawn across the |
| W1:56.5 | are part of Him will yet look past all appearances and recognize the | truth beyond them all. |
| W1:57.4 | I see everything upside down, and my thoughts are the opposite of | truth. I see the world as a prison for God's Son. It must be, then, |
| W1:58.2 | longer see myself as guilty. I can accept the innocence that is the | truth about me. Seen through understanding eyes, the holiness of the |
| W1:58.4 | ideas about myself? My holiness undoes them all by asserting the | truth about me. In the presence of my holiness, which I share with |
| W1:60.5 | guide my actions, and lead my feet. I am walking steadily on toward | truth. There is nowhere else I can go, because God's Voice is the |
| W1:61.1 | the world except God's Son? This, then, is merely a statement of the | truth about yourself. It is the opposite of a statement of pride, of |
| W1:61.1 | It refers to you as you were created by God. It simply states the | truth. |
| W1:61.4 | It brings all the images you have made about yourself to the | truth and helps you depart in peace, unburdened and certain of your |
| W1:61.8 | practice period. Thus you will awaken with an acknowledgment of the | truth about yourself, reinforce it throughout the day, and turn to |
| W1:62.1 | you are the light of the world. Through your forgiveness does the | truth about yourself return to your memory. Therefore in your |
| W1:62.2 | creation and its Creator. Now you are learning how to remember the | truth. For this, attack must be replaced by forgiveness so that |
| W1:65.10 | of being willing to have your illusions of purpose be replaced by | truth. |
| W1:66.3 | will try to go past this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the | truth about your function. We will not engage in ceaseless arguments |
| W1:66.3 | it. We will not indulge the ego by listening to its attacks on | truth. We will merely be glad that we can find out what truth is. |
| W1:66.3 | attacks on truth. We will merely be glad that we can find out what | truth is. |
| W1:66.4 | in appearance, and recognize a common content where it exists in | truth. |
| W1:66.9 | up of illusions. The other is the home of the Holy Spirit, where | truth abides. There are no other guides but these to choose between |
| W1:66.12 | to the Holy Spirit's Voice. You will listen to madness or hear the | truth. Try to make this choice as you think about the premises on |
| W1:66.13 | and the different as different. On one side stand all illusions. All | truth stands on the other. Let us try today to realize that only the |
| W1:66.13 | truth stands on the other. Let us try today to realize that only the | truth is true. |
| W1:67.2 | We will make every effort today to reach this | truth about you and to realize fully, if only for a moment, that it |
| W1:67.2 | about you and to realize fully, if only for a moment, that it is the | truth. In the longer practice period, we will think about your |
| W1:67.2 | unchanged and unchangeable nature. We will begin by repeating this | truth about you and then spend a few minutes adding some relevant |
| W1:67.5 | reach past all your images and preconceptions about yourself to the | truth in you. If Love created you like Itself, this Self must be in |
| W1:67.6 | and that you need to continue adding other thoughts related to the | truth about yourself. Yet perhaps you will succeed in going past that |
| W1:67.7 | the idea for today as often as you can. You need to hear the | truth about yourself as frequently as possible because your mind is |
| W1:67.7 | to remind yourself that Love created you like Itself. Hear the | truth about yourself in this. |
| W1:67.8 | reminding you of your Father and of your Self. This is the Voice of | truth replacing everything that the ego tells you about yourself with |
| W1:67.8 | everything that the ego tells you about yourself with the simple | truth about the Son of God. You were created by Love like Itself. |
| W1:72.5 | deceiver, full of false promises and offering illusions in place of | truth. |
| W1:72.8 | against Him and His creation, that you may not hear the Voice of | truth and welcome it as Friend. Your chosen savior takes His place |
| W1:72.9 | to your peace of mind. You have seen yourself in a body and the | truth outside you, locked away from your awareness by the body's |
| W1:72.10 | The light of | truth is in us, where it was placed by God. It is the body that is |
| W1:72.10 | a body is to be in our natural state. To recognize the light of | truth in us is to recognize ourselves as we are. To see our Self as |
| W1:72.15 | the ego what salvation is and where to find it. We are asking it of | truth. Be certain, then, that the answer will be true because of Whom |
| W1:73.7 | happiness, and it is happiness you really want. Such is your will in | truth. And so salvation is your will as well. You want to succeed in |
| W1:76.7 | We will devote today to rejoicing that this is so. It is no longer a | truth which we would hide. We realize instead it is a truth which |
| W1:76.7 | is no longer a truth which we would hide. We realize instead it is a | truth which keeps us free forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of |
| W1:76.10 | hold your mind in silent readiness to hear the Voice that speaks the | truth to you. You will be listening to One Who says there is no loss |
| W1:77.2 | nor on any of the rituals you have devised. It is inherent in the | truth of what you are. It is implicit in what God your Father is. It |
| W1:77.3 | you and can never be lost. We ask no more than what belongs to us in | truth. Today, however, we will also make sure that we will not |
| W1:78.4 | So is the seeing of the world reversed, as we look out toward | truth, away from fear. |
| W1:78.8 | Then let us ask of Him Who knows this Son of God in his reality and | truth that we may look on him a different way and see our savior |
| W1:80.2 | God's answer. You have laid deception aside and seen the light of | truth. You have accepted salvation for yourself by bringing the |
| W1:R2.4 | Regard these practice periods as dedications to the way, the | truth, and the life. Refuse to be side-tracked into detours, |
| W1:88.2 | are not there to choose. That is why I always choose between | truth and illusion, between what is there and what is not. The light |
| W1:89.5 | I express my willingness to have all my illusions be replaced with | truth according to God's plan for my salvation. I would make no |
| W1:91.8 | The belief you are a body calls for correction, being a mistake. The | truth of what you are calls on the strength in you to bring to your |
| W1:92.5 | Strength is the | truth about you; weakness is an idol falsely worshiped and adored |
| W1:92.5 | where God appointed that there should be light. Strength comes from | truth and shines with light its Source has given it; weakness |
| W1:92.6 | Truth is a savior and can only will for happiness and peace for | |
| W1:92.10 | practice seeing in the light, closing the body's eyes and asking | truth to show us how to find the meeting place of self and Self, |
| W1:93.1 | home of evil, darkness, and sin. You think if anyone could see the | truth about you he would be repelled, recoiling from you as if from a |
| W1:93.7 | you did, you are as God created you. Whatever mistakes you made, the | truth about you is unchanged. Creation is eternal and unalterable. |
| W1:93.8 | five minutes of every waking hour, we will begin by stating the | truth about our creation: |
| W1:93.14 | to closing your eyes and realizing that this is a statement of the | truth about you. |
| W1:94.3 | first five minutes of each waking hour to the attempt to feel the | truth in you. Begin these times of searching with these words: |
| W1:94.6 | you have ascribed to yourself and wait in silent expectancy for the | truth. God has Himself promised that it will be revealed to all who |
| W1:95.11 | is but another way in which you would defend illusions against the | truth. Let all these errors go by recognizing them for what they are. |
| W1:95.12 | This is the | truth, and nothing else is true. Today we will affirm this truth |
| W1:95.12 | is the truth, and nothing else is true. Today we will affirm this | truth again and try to reach the place in you in which there is no |
| W1:95.17 | world and let the light in you come through to teach the world the | truth about itself. You are One Self, in perfect harmony with all |
| W1:95.18 | all your illusions out of the One Mind which is this Self, the holy | truth in you. |
| W1:95.20 | time you do so, someone hears the voice of hope, the stirring of the | truth within his mind, the gentle rustling of the wings of peace. |
| W1:96.2 | The fact that | truth and illusion cannot be reconciled, no matter how you try, what |
| W1:96.7 | conflicts which a dream presents? What could the resolution mean in | truth? What purpose could it serve? What is it for? Salvation cannot |
| W1:97.1 | nor tries to weave opposing factors into unity. It simply states the | truth. Practice this truth today as often as you can, for it will |
| W1:97.1 | factors into unity. It simply states the truth. Practice this | truth today as often as you can, for it will bring your mind from |
| W1:97.2 | We state again the | truth about your Self, the holy Son of God who rests in you whose |
| W1:97.5 | His sight to everyone who asks; replaces error with the simple | truth. |
| W1:98.1 | dedication. We take a stand on but one side today. We side with | truth and let illusions go. We will not vacillate between the two but |
| W1:98.1 | two but take a firm position with the one. We dedicate ourselves to | truth today and to salvation as God planned it be. We will not argue |
| W1:99.2 | Truth and illusions both are equal now, for both have happened. The | |
| W1:99.2 | for, salvation from. Salvation is the borderland between the | truth and illusion. It reflects the truth because it is the means by |
| W1:99.2 | is the borderland between the truth and illusion. It reflects the | truth because it is the means by which you can escape illusions. Yet |
| W1:99.2 | it is the means by which you can escape illusions. Yet it is not | truth because it undoes what was never done. |
| W1:99.4 | Mind and thought which are forever one? What plan could hold the | truth inviolate, yet recognize the need illusions bring and offer |
| W1:99.6 | This is the thought which brings illusions to the | truth, and sees them as appearances behind which is the changeless |
| W1:99.12 | your longer practice periods with this instruction in the way of | truth: |
| W1:99.15 | Forgive all thoughts which would oppose the | truth of your completeness, unity, and peace. You cannot lose the |
| W1:99.16 | to believe them true, remember that appearances cannot withstand the | truth these mighty words contain: |
| W1:101.11 | God's Will for me is perfect happiness. This is the | truth because there is no sin. |
| W1:103.2 | think what they have made is real. These images, with no reality in | truth, bear witness to the fear of God, forgetting being Love, He |
| W1:103.3 | This basic error we will try again to bring to | truth today and teach ourselves: |
| W1:103.6 | each waking hour today. Then welcome all the happiness it brings, as | truth replaces fear, and joy becomes what you expect to take the |
| W1:103.7 | And it is happiness I seek today. I cannot fail because I seek the | truth. |
| W1:104.2 | where God's gifts belong. These are the gifts which are our own in | truth. His are the gifts which we inherited before time was and which |
| W1:104.4 | Our longer practice periods today, the hourly five minutes given | truth for your salvation, should begin with this: |
| W1:104.5 | I seek but what belongs to me in | truth, and joy and peace are my inheritance. |
| W1:104.7 | Him. We come in confidence today, aware that what belongs to us in | truth is what He gives. And we would wish for nothing else, for |
| W1:104.7 | we would wish for nothing else, for nothing else belongs to us in | truth. |
| W1:104.9 | I seek but what belongs to me in | truth. God's gifts of joy and peace are all I want. |
| W1:106.1 | told you what salvation is; then you will hear the mighty Voice of | truth, quiet in power, strong in stillness, and completely certain in |
| W1:106.2 | to peace to those who cannot see. Be still today and listen to the | truth. Be not deceived by voices of the dead which tell you they have |
| W1:106.2 | offer it to you for your belief. Attend them not, but listen to the | truth. |
| W1:106.3 | persuasion. Hear them not. Be still today, and listen to the | truth. Go past all things which do not speak of Him Who holds your |
| W1:106.9 | I will be still and listen to the | truth. What does it mean to give and to receive? |
| W1:106.11 | Be still and listen to the | truth today. For each five minutes spent in listening, a thousand |
| W1:106.11 | five minutes spent in listening, a thousand minds are opened to the | truth. And they will hear the holy Word you hear. And when the hour |
| W1:106.11 | past, you will again release a thousand more who pause to ask that | truth be given them along with you. |
| W1:106.13 | Let me be still and listen to the | truth. I am the messenger of God today. My voice is His, to give what |
| W1:107.1 | What can correct illusions but the | truth? And what are errors but illusions that remain unrecognized for |
| W1:107.1 | but illusions that remain unrecognized for what they are? Where | truth has entered, errors disappear. They merely vanish, leaving not |
| W1:107.1 | whence they came. From dust to dust they come and go, for only | truth remains. |
| W1:107.3 | the faintest intimation of the state your mind will rest in when the | truth has come. |
| W1:107.4 | illusions there could be no fear, no doubt, and no attack. When | truth has come, all pain is over, for there is no room for transitory |
| W1:107.4 | room for transitory thoughts and dead ideas to linger in your mind. | Truth occupies your mind completely, liberating you from all beliefs |
| W1:107.4 | from all beliefs in the ephemeral. They have no place because the | truth has come, and they are nowhere. They cannot be found, for truth |
| W1:107.4 | the truth has come, and they are nowhere. They cannot be found, for | truth is everywhere forever now. |
| W1:107.5 | When | truth has come, it does not stay a while to disappear or change to |
| W1:107.5 | the world presents engender. They will merely blow away when | truth corrects the errors in your mind. |
| W1:107.6 | When | truth has come, it harbors in its wings the gift of perfect constancy |
| W1:107.6 | beyond it, steadily and sure. Here is the gift of healing, for the | truth needs no defense, and therefore no attack is possible. |
| W1:107.6 | and therefore no attack is possible. Illusions can be brought to | truth to be corrected. But the truth stands far beyond illusions and |
| W1:107.6 | possible. Illusions can be brought to truth to be corrected. But the | truth stands far beyond illusions and cannot be brought to them to |
| W1:107.6 | far beyond illusions and cannot be brought to them to turn them into | truth. |
| W1:107.7 | Truth does not come and go nor shift nor change, in this appearance | |
| W1:107.8 | Today belongs to | truth. Give truth its due, and it will give you yours. You were not |
| W1:107.8 | Today belongs to truth. Give | truth its due, and it will give you yours. You were not meant to |
| W1:107.8 | to suffer and to die. Your Father wills these dreams be gone. Let | truth correct them all. We do not ask for what we do not have. We |
| W1:107.9 | we practice on the happy note of certainty that has been born of | truth. The shaky and unsteady footsteps of illusion is not our |
| W1:107.9 | we live and hope and breathe and think. We do not doubt we walk with | truth today and count on it to enter into all the exercises that we |
| W1:107.11 | Truth will correct all errors in your mind which tell you you could | |
| W1:107.12 | Truth will correct all errors in my mind, and I will rest in Him Who | |
| W1:107.13 | Then let Him lead you gently to the | truth which will envelop you and give you peace so deep and tranquil |
| W1:107.14 | For you will bring with you the promise of the changes which the | truth that goes with you will carry to the world. They will increase |
| W1:108.4 | giving and receiving seen as different aspects of one Thought Whose | truth does not depend on which is seen as first, nor which appears to |
| W1:108.5 | every kind of learning if it be directed by the One Who knows the | truth. |
| W1:108.9 | To give and to receive are one in | truth. I will receive what I am giving now. |
| W1:108.14 | To give and to receive are one in | truth. |
| W1:109.2 | seek. “I rest in God.” This thought has power to wake the sleeping | truth in you, whose vision sees beyond appearances to that same truth |
| W1:109.2 | truth in you, whose vision sees beyond appearances to that same | truth in everyone and everything there is. Here is the end of |
| W1:109.3 | no problem which it cannot solve. And no appearance but will turn to | truth before the eyes of you who rest in God. |
| W1:109.4 | hate, your rest remains completely undisturbed. Yours is the rest of | truth. Appearances cannot intrude on you. You call to all to join you |
| W1:110.1 | to save you and the world if you believed that it is true. Its | truth would mean that you have made no changes in yourself which have |
| W1:110.3 | If you remain as God created you, appearances cannot replace the | truth, health cannot turn to sickness, nor can death be substitute |
| W1:110.5 | It is the birthplace of all miracles, the great restorer of the | truth to the awareness of the world. Practice today's idea with |
| W1:110.5 | of the world. Practice today's idea with gratitude. This is the | truth that comes to set you free. This is the truth that God has |
| W1:110.5 | gratitude. This is the truth that comes to set you free. This is the | truth that God has promised you. This is the Word in which all sorrow |
| W1:110.10 | images which you believed were you. Today we make a great advance to | truth by letting idols go and opening our hands and hearts and minds |
| W1:110.13 | Let us declare this | truth as often as we can. This is the Word of God that sets you free. |
| W1:111.2 | in light. I cannot see in darkness. Let the light of holiness and | truth light up my mind And let me see the innocence within. |
| W1:117.3 | [104] I seek but what belongs to me in | truth. Love is my heritage and with it joy. These are the gifts my |
| W1:117.3 | the gifts my Father gave to me. I would accept all that is mine in | truth. |
| W1:117.7 | I seek but what belongs to me in | truth. |
| W1:118.3 | [106] Let me be still and listen to the | truth. Let mine own feeble voice be still, and let me hear the mighty |
| W1:118.3 | mine own feeble voice be still, and let me hear the mighty Voice of | truth itself assure me that I am God's perfect Son. |
| W1:118.7 | Let me be still and listen to the | truth. |
| W1:119.2 | [107] | Truth will correct all errors in my mind. I am mistaken when I think |
| W1:119.3 | [108] To give and to receive are one in | truth. I will forgive all things today, that I may learn how to |
| W1:119.3 | I will forgive all things today, that I may learn how to accept the | truth in me and come to recognize my sinlessness. |
| W1:119.5 | Truth will correct all errors in my mind. | |
| W1:119.7 | To give and to receive are one in | truth. |
| W1:122.6 | the power and the majesty of this extremely simple statement of the | truth. |
| W1:122.13 | as you see the changeless in the heart of change, the light of | truth behind appearances. Be tempted not to let your gifts slip by |
| W1:123.1 | is no thought of turning back and no implacable resistance to the | truth. A bit of wavering remains, some small objections, and a little |
| W1:124.2 | place to everlasting life. Our shining footprints point the way to | truth, for God is our Companion as we walk the world a little while. |
| W1:126.8 | Today we try to understand the | truth that giver and receiver are the same. You will need help to |
| W1:126.8 | Him your faith today and ask Him that He share your practicing in | truth today. And if you only catch a tiny glimpse of the release |
| W1:126.10 | really means. Be willing to be taught. Be glad to hear the Voice of | truth and healing speak to you, and you will understand the words He |
| W1:127.5 | There is not one principle the world upholds but violates the | truth of what love is, and what you are as well. Seek not within the |
| W1:127.8 | He Himself has promised this. And He Himself will place a spark of | truth within your mind wherever you give up a false belief, a dark |
| W1:127.8 | shine through your idle thoughts today and help you understand the | truth of love. In loving gentleness, He will abide with you as you |
| W1:130.3 | project upon the world? What can be seen in darkness that is real? | Truth is eclipsed by fear, and what remains is but imagined. Yet what |
| W1:130.10 | you fail to see His thanks expressed in tangible perception and in | truth. You will not doubt what you will look upon. For though it is |
| W1:131.10 | Today we will not choose a paradox in place of | truth. How could the Son of God make time to take away the Will of |
| W1:131.11 | No one can fail who asks to reach the | truth, and it is truth we ask to reach today. We will devote ten |
| W1:131.11 | No one can fail who asks to reach the truth, and it is | truth we ask to reach today. We will devote ten minutes to this goal |
| W1:131.11 | have no meaning, no effect, and neither source nor substance in the | truth. |
| W1:131.15 | to open it, remind yourself no one can fail who asks to reach the | truth, and it is this request you make today. Nothing but this has |
| W1:131.16 | you realize the world you see before you in the light reflects the | truth you knew and did not quite forget in wandering away in dreams. |
| W1:131.19 | purpose offers it to me. No one can fail who asks to reach the | truth. |
| W1:132.1 | are mighty, and illusions are as strong in their effects as is the | truth. A madman thinks the world he sees is real and does not doubt |
| W1:132.5 | already, hardly waiting for your thoughts to give it meaning. Yet in | truth you found exactly what you looked for when you came. There is |
| W1:132.7 | one must go as far as he can let himself be led along the road to | truth. He will return and go still farther, or perhaps step back a |
| W1:132.8 | that the world does not exist because what they behold must be the | truth, and yet it clearly contradicts the world. And some will find |
| W1:132.13 | this release to give you fatherhood, not of illusions, but as God in | truth. God shares His Fatherhood with you who are His Son, for He |
| W1:132.14 | idea be real? Can it be anywhere? Deny illusions, but accept the | truth. Deny you are a shadow briefly laid upon a dying world. Release |
| W1:133.9 | what the ego wants it fails to recognize. It does not even tell the | truth as it perceives it, for it needs to keep the halo which it uses |
| W1:134.1 | a gift unjustified and undeserved, and a complete denial of the | truth. In such a view, forgiveness must be seen as mere eccentric |
| W1:134.2 | to what is false. It is irrelevant to everything except illusions. | Truth is God's creation, and to pardon this is meaningless. All truth |
| W1:134.2 | Truth is God's creation, and to pardon this is meaningless. All | truth belongs to Him, reflects His laws and radiates His Love. Does |
| W1:134.3 | on your part is that you still believe you must forgive the | truth and not illusions. You conceive of pardon as a vain attempt to |
| W1:134.3 | pardon as a vain attempt to look past what is there; to overlook the | truth in an unfounded effort to deceive yourself by making an |
| W1:134.4 | Thus is forgiveness really but a sin, like all the rest. It says the | truth is false and smiles on the corrupt as if they were as blameless |
| W1:134.5 | denied, or called another name, for pardon is a treachery to | truth. Guilt cannot be forgiven. If you sin, your guilt is |
| W1:134.6 | them lightly with a little laugh and gently lays them at the feet of | truth. And there they disappear entirely. |
| W1:134.7 | Forgiveness is the only thing that stands for | truth in the illusions of the world. It sees their nothingness and |
| W1:134.7 | eyes and merely says to them, “My brother, what you think is not the | truth.” |
| W1:134.8 | which is so uncorrupted that it sees illusions as illusions, not as | truth. It is because of this that it becomes the undeceiver in the |
| W1:134.8 | the undeceiver in the face of lies, the great restorer of the simple | truth. By its ability to overlook what is not there, it opens up the |
| W1:134.8 | By its ability to overlook what is not there, it opens up the way to | truth, which had been blocked by dreams of guilt. |
| W1:134.10 | of guilt and pain as God Himself intended it to be and as it is in | truth. It is but lies which would condemn. In truth is innocence the |
| W1:134.10 | to be and as it is in truth. It is but lies which would condemn. In | truth is innocence the only thing there is. Forgiveness stands |
| W1:134.10 | only thing there is. Forgiveness stands between illusions and the | truth, between the world you see and that which lies beyond, between |
| W1:134.11 | are all dreams of evil and of hatred and attack brought silently to | truth. They are not kept to swell and bluster and to terrify the |
| W1:135.11 | respond with health when they have been corrected and replaced with | truth. This is the body's only real defense. Yet is this where you |
| W1:135.15 | a frightened mind would undertake its own protection at the cost of | truth. This is not difficult to realize in some forms which these |
| W1:135.18 | Defenses are the plans you undertake to make against the | truth. Their aim is to select what you approve and disregard what you |
| W1:135.20 | the future, and this life becomes a meaningful encounter with the | truth that only your defenses would conceal. |
| W1:135.22 | but realize that our defenselessness is all that is required for the | truth to dawn upon our minds with certainty. |
| W1:135.23 | rest from senseless planning and from every thought which blocks the | truth from entering our minds. Today we will receive instead of plan, |
| W1:135.26 | what you will receive today. And in the light and joy of simple | truth, you will but wonder why you ever thought that you must be |
| W1:135.29 | defend myself, because the Son of God needs no defense against the | truth of his reality. |
| W1:136.1 | illusion by the same approach that carries all of them to | truth and merely leaves them there to disappear. |
| W1:136.2 | pile of unassembled parts. The aim of all defenses is to keep the | truth from being whole. The parts are seen as if each one were whole |
| W1:136.3 | made without awareness. They are secret magic wands you wave when | truth appears to threaten what you would believe. They seem to be |
| W1:136.8 | It is a choice you make, a plan you lay when for an instant | truth arises in your own deluded mind and all your world appears to |
| W1:136.8 | world appears to totter and prepare to fall. Now are you sick that | truth may go away and threaten your establishments no more. |
| W1:136.9 | How do you think that sickness can succeed in shielding you from | truth? Because it proves the body is not separate from you, and so |
| W1:136.9 | body is not separate from you, and so you must be separate from the | truth. You suffer pain because the body does, and in this pain are |
| W1:136.10 | Thus is the body stronger than the | truth, which asks you live but cannot overcome your choice to die. |
| W1:136.11 | such mad attacks as these, with God made blind by your illusions, | truth turned into lies, and all the universe made slave to laws which |
| W1:136.11 | them up? Who else can see them and react to them as if they were the | truth? |
| W1:136.12 | can but choose to think you die or suffer sickness or distort the | truth in any way. What is created is apart from all of this. Defenses |
| W1:136.13 | Such is the simple | truth. It does not make appeal to might nor triumph. It does not |
| W1:136.13 | and futile are your attempts to plan defenses which would alter it. | Truth merely wants to give you happiness, for such its purpose is. |
| W1:136.14 | an illusion. For it lets you think what God has given you is not the | truth right now, as it must be. The thoughts of God are quite apart |
| W1:136.14 | For time is but another meaningless defense you made against the | truth. Yet what God wills is here, and you remain as He created you. |
| W1:136.15 | Truth has a power far beyond defense, for no illusions can remain | |
| W1:136.15 | time—today, if you will choose to practice giving welcome to the | truth. This is our aim today. And we will give a quarter of an hour |
| W1:136.15 | aim today. And we will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the | truth to come to us and set us free. |
| W1:136.16 | And | truth will come, for it has never been apart from us. It merely waits |
| W1:136.16 | it with a healing prayer to help us rise above defensiveness and let | truth be as it has always been: |
| W1:136.17 | Sickness is a defense against the | truth. I will accept the truth of what I am and let my mind be wholly |
| W1:136.17 | Sickness is a defense against the truth. I will accept the | truth of what I am and let my mind be wholly healed today. |
| W1:136.18 | Healing will flash across your open mind as peace and | truth arise to take the place of war and vain imaginings. There will |
| W1:136.18 | corners sickness can conceal and keep defended from the light of | truth. There will be no dim figures from your dreams nor their |
| W1:136.22 | for I mistook my body for myself. Sickness is a defense against the | truth, but I am not a body. And my mind cannot attack. So I cannot be |
| W1:137.4 | Sickness would prove that lies must be the | truth. But healing demonstrates that truth is true. The separation |
| W1:137.4 | prove that lies must be the truth. But healing demonstrates that | truth is true. The separation sickness would impose has never really |
| W1:137.4 | To be healed is merely to accept what always was the simple | truth and always will remain exactly as it has forever been. Yet eyes |
| W1:137.4 | that what they look upon is false. So healing, never needed by the | truth, must demonstrate that sickness is not real. |
| W1:137.5 | counter-dream which cancels out the dream of sickness in the name of | truth but not in truth itself. Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins |
| W1:137.5 | cancels out the dream of sickness in the name of truth but not in | truth itself. Just as forgiveness overlooks all sins that never were |
| W1:137.5 | states and false ideas which dreams embroider into pictures of the | truth. |
| W1:137.7 | replace the fantasies of sickness which you hold before the simple | truth. When sickness has been seen to disappear in spite of all the |
| W1:137.8 | For it demonstrates that dreams will not prevail against the | truth. Healing is shared. And by this attribute, it proves that laws |
| W1:137.11 | mind becomes a haven where the weary can remain to rest. For here is | truth bestowed, and here are all illusions brought to truth. |
| W1:137.11 | For here is truth bestowed, and here are all illusions brought to | truth. |
| W1:137.12 | cannot be to be, and this cannot succeed. Today we ask that only | truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing will this day |
| W1:138.2 | It is this strange perception of the | truth that makes the choice of Heaven seem to be the same as the |
| W1:138.2 | here unless it is reflected in some form the world can understand. | Truth cannot come where it could only be perceived with fear, for |
| W1:138.2 | it could only be perceived with fear, for this would be the error | truth can be brought to illusions. Opposition makes the truth |
| W1:138.2 | be the error truth can be brought to illusions. Opposition makes the | truth unwelcome, and it cannot come. |
| W1:138.4 | that one is made, you will perceive it was no choice at all, for | truth is true and nothing else is real. There is no opposite to |
| W1:138.4 | is no opposite to choose instead. There is no contradiction to the | truth. |
| W1:138.5 | Choosing depends on learning. But the | truth cannot be learned but only recognized. In recognition its |
| W1:138.5 | of your learning, for they rest on what you have accepted as the | truth of what you are and what your needs must be. |
| W1:138.6 | different forms. Here is the final and the only choice in which is | truth accepted or denied. |
| W1:138.8 | from salvation, threatened to be safe, and magically armored against | truth. And these decisions are made unaware to keep them safely |
| W1:138.9 | which the mind had made before are open to correction as the | truth dismisses them as causeless. Now are they without effects. They |
| W1:138.11 | what has existence and what has nothing but an appearance of the | truth. Its pseudo-being, brought to what is real, is flimsy and |
| W1:139.5 | But you have split your mind into what knows and does not know the | truth. You are yourself. There is no doubt of this, and yet you doubt |
| W1:139.9 | accept Atonement, not to change reality, but merely to accept the | truth about yourself and go your way rejoicing in the endless Love of |
| W1:139.12 | and in our memory is the recall how dear our brothers are to us in | truth, how much a part of us is every mind, how faithful they have |
| W1:140.3 | dreams another dream. His happy dreams are heralds of the dawn of | truth upon the mind. They lead from sleep to gentle waking, so that |
| W1:140.6 | the need for healing is. This is no magic. It is merely an appeal to | truth which cannot fail to heal and heal forever. It is not a thought |
| W1:140.7 | effect a change in anything. The mind that brings illusions to the | truth is really changed. There is no change but this. For how can one |
| W1:140.10 | this can cure. Today we hear a single Voice which speaks to us of | truth where all illusions end, and peace returns to the eternal quiet |
| W1:R4.1 | time aware we are preparing for the second part of learning how the | truth can be applied. Today we will begin to concentrate on readiness |
| W1:R4.4 | This is a fact and represents the | truth of what you are and what your Father is. It is this thought by |
| W1:R4.6 | you think with God. Your self-deceptions cannot take the place of | truth. No more than can a child who throws a stick into the ocean |
| W1:146.1 | [131] No one can fail who asks to reach the | truth. |
| W1:148.2 | [136] Sickness is a defense against the | truth. |
| W1:151.3 | ears report. You think your fingers touch reality and close upon the | truth. This is awareness which you understand and think more real |
| W1:151.10 | lessons will enable you to bridge the gap between illusions and the | truth. He will remove all faith that you have placed in pain, |
| W1:151.11 | He will select the elements in them that represent the | truth and disregard those aspects which reflect but idle dreams. And |
| W1:151.13 | our thoughts, appealing silently to Him Who sees the elements of | truth in them. Let Him evaluate each thought that comes to mind, |
| W1:151.14 | transformed, it takes on healing power from the Mind Which saw the | truth in it and failed to be deceived by what was falsely added. All |
| W1:151.17 | begun at last, to carry round the world the joyous news that | truth has no illusions and the peace of God, through us, belongs to |
| W1:152.2 | that this position is extreme and too inclusive to be true. Yet can | truth have exceptions? If you have the gift of everything, can loss |
| W1:152.2 | and sickness enter in a mind where love and perfect holiness abide? | Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the truth at all. Accept no |
| W1:152.2 | and perfect holiness abide? Truth must be all-inclusive if it be the | truth at all. Accept no opposite and no exceptions, for to do so is |
| W1:152.2 | no opposite and no exceptions, for to do so is to contradict the | truth entirely. |
| W1:152.3 | Salvation is the recognition that the | truth is true and nothing else is true. This you have heard before, |
| W1:152.3 | has no meaning, but without the second is the first no longer true. | Truth cannot have an opposite. This cannot be too often said and |
| W1:152.3 | if what is not true is true as well as what is true, then part of | truth is false, and truth has lost its meaning. Nothing but the truth |
| W1:152.3 | is true as well as what is true, then part of truth is false, and | truth has lost its meaning. Nothing but the truth is true, and what |
| W1:152.3 | of truth is false, and truth has lost its meaning. Nothing but the | truth is true, and what is false is false. |
| W1:152.4 | of choices which do not appear to be entirely your own. And thus the | truth appears to have some aspects that belie consistency but do not |
| W1:152.5 | and in all response. This is the all-inclusiveness which sets the | truth apart from falsehood, and the false kept separate from the |
| W1:152.5 | the truth apart from falsehood, and the false kept separate from the | truth as what it is. |
| W1:152.7 | that God made chaos, contradicts His Will, invented opposites to | truth, and suffers death to triumph over life—all this is |
| W1:152.9 | ego seeks to prove it arrogant. Only the ego can be arrogant. But | truth is humble in acknowledging its mightiness, its changelessness, |
| W1:152.11 | Now do we join in glad acknowledgment that lies are false and only | truth is true. |
| W1:152.12 | We think of | truth alone as we arise and spend five minutes practicing its ways, |
| W1:152.15 | will substitute the peace of God for all your frantic thoughts, the | truth of God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for your illusions of |
| W1:153.10 | untouchable within its light. God's ministers have chosen that the | truth be with them. Who is holier than they? Who could be surer that |
| W1:153.13 | upon this earth. And then we go to take our rightful place where | truth abides and games are meaningless. |
| W1:155.2 | other choice is really theirs to make? To let illusion walk ahead of | truth is madness, but to let illusion sink behind the truth and let |
| W1:155.2 | walk ahead of truth is madness, but to let illusion sink behind the | truth and let the truth stand forth as what it is, is simple sanity. |
| W1:155.2 | is madness, but to let illusion sink behind the truth and let the | truth stand forth as what it is, is simple sanity. |
| W1:155.3 | were mistaken in the choice. They cannot learn directly from the | truth because they have denied that it is so. And so they need a |
| W1:155.3 | their madness, but who still can look beyond illusion to the simple | truth in them. |
| W1:155.4 | If | truth demanded they give up the world, it would appear to them as if |
| W1:155.6 | bring their eyes to look on and their minds to grasp. Now can the | truth, which walks ahead of you, speak to them through illusion, for |
| W1:155.7 | and aims which will remain impossible. All this steps back as | truth comes forth in you to lead your brothers from the ways of death |
| W1:155.7 | a guide to lead them out of it, for they mistake illusion for the | truth. |
| W1:155.8 | is salvation's call, and nothing more. It asks that you accept the | truth, and let it go before you, lighting up the path of ransom from |
| W1:155.9 | to you. And you may find that you are tempted still to walk ahead of | truth and let illusions be your guide. Your holy brothers have been |
| W1:155.9 | in your footsteps as you walk with certainty of purpose to the | truth. It goes before you now, that they may see something with which |
| W1:155.10 | Yet at the journey's ending there will be no gap, no distance between | truth and you. And all illusions walking in the way you traveled will |
| W1:155.10 | will be gone from you as well, with nothing left to keep the | truth apart from God's completion, holy as Himself. Step back in |
| W1:155.10 | from God's completion, holy as Himself. Step back in faith, and let | truth lead the way. You know not where you go, but One Who knows goes |
| W1:155.11 | no journeys. There will be no wish to be illusion rather than the | truth. And we step forth toward this as we progress along the way |
| W1:155.11 | And we step forth toward this as we progress along the way that | truth points out to us. This is our final journey, which we make for |
| W1:155.11 | which we make for everyone. We must not lose our way. For as | truth goes before us, so it goes before our brothers who will follow |
| W1:155.12 | less and still content the holy Son of God? We walk to God. The | truth that walks before us now is one with Him and leads us to where |
| W1:156.1 | Today's idea but states the simple | truth that makes the thought of sin impossible. It promises there is |
| W1:156.2 | not inconsistent in the thoughts that we present in our curriculum. | Truth must be true throughout if it be true. It cannot contradict |
| W1:157.8 | the Giver of the happy dreams of life, Translator of perception into | truth, the holy Guide to Heaven given you has dreamed for you this |
| W1:159.10 | to hope. Let us an instant dream with Him. His dream awakens us to | truth. His vision gives the means for a return to our unlost and |
| W1:160.2 | is a stranger in our midst who comes from an idea so foreign to the | truth he speaks a different language, looks upon a world truth does |
| W1:160.2 | to the truth he speaks a different language, looks upon a world | truth does not know, and understands what truth regards as senseless. |
| W1:160.2 | looks upon a world truth does not know, and understands what | truth regards as senseless. Stranger yet, he does not recognize to |
| W1:161.4 | Every mind contains all minds, for every mind is one. Such is the | truth. Yet do these thoughts make clear the meaning of creation? Do |
| W1:162.3 | certain and his body healed because he sleeps and wakens with the | truth before him always. He will save the world because he gives the |
| W1:162.3 | gives the world what he receives each time he practices the words of | truth. |
| W1:164.1 | What time but now can | truth be recognized? The present is the only time there is. And so |
| W1:165.1 | What makes this world seem real except your own denial of the | truth which lies beyond? What but your thoughts of misery and death |
| W1:166.3 | against himself. He must deny their presence, contradict the | truth, and suffer to preserve the world he made. |
| W1:166.7 | appointed way, with eyes cast down lest you might catch a glimpse of | truth and be released from self-deception and set free. |
| W1:167.1 | There are not different kinds of life, for life is like the | truth. It does not have degrees. It is the one condition in which all |
| W1:167.3 | can heal. It is the cause of healing. It is why you cannot die. Its | truth established you as one with God. |
| W1:167.7 | can be reconciled with what created it because it is not opposite in | truth. Its form may change; it may appear to be what it is not. Yet |
| W1:167.10 | Let us today be children of the | truth and not deny our holy heritage. Our life is not as we imagine |
| W1:169.1 | Love of God which is most like the state prevailing in the unity of | truth. It is the world's most lofty aspiration, for it leads beyond |
| W1:169.4 | you to bear witness to the Word of God to hasten the experience of | truth and speed its advent into every mind which recognizes its |
| W1:169.12 | outside, unknowing, unawakened, and in need of you as witness to the | truth? |
| W1:R5.12 | completing His extension in your own. We practice but an ancient | truth we knew before illusion seemed to claim the world. And we |
| W1:184.4 | is made by partial vision, purposefully set against the given | truth. Its enemy is wholeness. It conceives of little things and |
| W1:184.13 | its aspects have distorted what you see but have not interfered with | truth at all. One Name we bring into our practicing. One Name we use |
| W1:184.15 | absolved of all effects our errors seemed to have. And we accept the | truth You give in place of every one of them. Your Name is our |
| W1:185.3 | what they will becomes the Will of God. For minds can only join in | truth. In dreams no two can share the same intent. To each the hero |
| W1:185.12 | of God apart from every dream that ever seemed to take the place of | truth. |
| W1:186.6 | yourself. You are not ignorant and helpless. Sin cannot tarnish the | truth in you, and misery can come not near the holy home of God. |
| W1:187.1 | then the world asserts that you have lost what you possessed. The | truth maintains that giving will increase what you possess. |
| W1:188.5 | it are in his understanding. He forgives because he recognized the | truth in him. The peace of God is shining in you now and in all |
| W1:190.3 | Pain is a sign illusions reign in place of | truth. It demonstrates God is denied, confused with fear, perceived |
| W1:190.10 | Pain is but sleep; joy is awakening. Pain is deception; joy alone is | truth. |
| W1:190.11 | choice that ever can be made—we choose between illusions and the | truth, or pain and joy, or hell and Heaven. Let our gratitude unto |

| W1:198.9 | Today we practice letting freedom come to make its home with you. The | truth bestows these words upon your mind that you may find the key to |
| W1:199.1 | firmly tied to it and sheltered by its presence. If this were the | truth, the mind were vulnerable indeed! |

| W1:R6.5 | clutters up the mind and makes it deaf to reason, sanity, and simple | truth. |
| W2:I.1 | on which we do not now depend. For now we seek direct experience of | truth alone. The lessons which remain are merely introductions to the |
| W2:I.8 | of this one holy year which we have spent together in the search for | truth and God, Who is its one Creator. We have found the way He chose |
| W2:I.9 | would make of Him. And we believed that our insane desires were the | truth. Now we are glad that this is all undone, and we no longer |
| W2:WF.4 | to forgive. But he who would forgive himself must learn to welcome | truth exactly as it is. |
| W2:222.1 | shines upon, who also shines on Him. How still is he who knows the | truth of what He speaks today! |
| W2:224.1 | This is reality, and only this. This is illusion's end. It is the | Truth. |
| W2:226.1 | depart from me. For I have not sought for illusions to replace the | truth. |
| W2:227.1 | illusions. Now I give them up and lay them down before the feet of | truth, to be removed forever from my mind. This is my holy instant of |
| W2:229.1 | from the holy face of Christ. And what I look upon attests the | truth of the Identity I sought to lose, but which my Father has kept |
| W2:231.1 | want to find. Let me remember You. What else could I desire but the | truth about myself? |
| W2:237.1 | Today I will accept the | truth about myself. I will arise in glory and allow the light in me |
| W2:239.1 | Let not the | truth about ourselves today be hidden by a false humility. Let us |
| W2:WIW.1 | the world be seen in quite another light, and one which leads to | truth, where all the world must disappear and all its errors vanish. |
| W2:WIW.3 | and make real. They see in its illusions but a solid base where | truth exists, upheld apart from lies. Yet everything that they report |
| W2:WIW.3 | that they report is but illusion, which is kept apart from | truth. |
| W2:WIW.4 | As sight was made to lead away from | truth, it can be redirected. Sounds become the call of God. And all |
| W2:243.2 | am included. We are one because each part contains Your memory, and | truth must shine in all of us as one. |
| W2:244.2 | And there we are in | truth. No storms can come into the hallowed haven of our home. In God |
| W2:247.1 | comes to me. Let me accept what His sight shows me as the simple | truth and I am healed completely. Brother, come and let me look on |
| W2:248.1 | I have disowned the | truth. Now let me be as faithful in disowning falsity. Whatever |
| W2:248.1 | my mind. What dies was never living in reality and did but mock the | truth about myself. Now I disown self-concepts and deceits and lies |
| W2:WIS.1 | the mind is driven mad and seeks to let illusions take the place of | truth. And being mad, it sees illusions where the truth should be and |
| W2:WIS.1 | take the place of truth. And being mad, it sees illusions where the | truth should be and where it really is. Sin gave the body eyes, for |
| W2:WIS.1 | to grasp? What would they sense at all? To sense is not to know. And | truth can be but filled with knowledge and with nothing else. |
| W2:WIS.2 | the mind has taken as replacement for the goal of self-deception. | Truth can be its aim as well as lies. The senses then will seek |
| W2:251.1 | My only need I did not recognize. But now I see that I need only | truth. In that, all needs are satisfied, all cravings end, all hopes |
| W2:252.2 | Reveal it now to me who am Your Son, that I may waken to the | truth in You and know that Heaven is restored to me. |
| W2:254.1 | Word. I have no prayer but this: I come to You to ask You for the | truth. And truth is but Your Will, which I would share with You today. |

| W2:255.1 | Son. And let the peace I choose be mine today bear witness to the | truth of what He says. God's Son can have no cares and must remain |
| W2:WIB.3 | revert to fear, where every dream is born. For only love creates in | truth, and truth can never fear. Made to be fearful, must the body |

| W2:269.1 | to me and through His lessons to surpass perception and return to | truth. I ask for the illusion which transcends all those I made. |
| W2:270.1 | Your Son acknowledges his Father, lets his dreams be brought to | truth, and waits expectantly the one remaining instant more of time, |
| W2:WIC.3 | of your holy mind. This is the only part of you that has reality in | truth. The rest is dreams. Yet will these dreams be given unto Christ |
| W2:WIC.4 | to all your dreams and bids them come to Him to be translated into | truth. He will exchange them for the final dream which God appointed |
| W2:271.1 | the sounds I want to hear, the witnesses to what I want to be the | truth for me. Today I choose to look upon what Christ would have me |
| W2:272.1 | Father, the | truth belongs to me. My home is set in Heaven by Your will and mine. |
| W2:274.1 | and his friend. Through this I am redeemed. Through this as well the | truth will enter where illusions were, light will replace all |
| W2:277.2 | because he is his Father's Son. And he cannot be bound unless God's | Truth can lie and God can will that He deceive Himself. |
| W2:278.1 | do not know my Father or my Self. And I am lost to all reality. For | truth is free, and what is bound is not a part of truth. |
| W2:278.1 | all reality. For truth is free, and what is bound is not a part of | truth. |
| W2:278.2 | Father, I ask for nothing but the | truth. I have had many foolish thoughts about myself and my creation |
| W2:278.2 | I choose the way to You instead of madness and instead of fear. For | truth is safe and only love is sure. |
| W2:279.1 | freedom if it be at all. Yet in reality his dreams are gone, with | truth established in their place. And now is freedom his already. |
| W2:280.1 | I can invent imprisonment for him, but only in illusions, not in | truth. No Thought of God has left its Father's Mind. No Thought of |
| W2:WIHS.1 | The Holy Spirit mediates between illusions and the | truth. As He must bridge the gap between reality and dreams, |
| W2:WIHS.1 | God has given Him, to be His gift to everyone who turns to Him for | truth. Across the bridge that He provides are dreams all carried to |
| W2:WIHS.1 | Across the bridge that He provides are dreams all carried to the | truth, to be dispelled before the light of knowledge. There are |
| W2:WIHS.2 | entirely accomplished, learning has achieved the only goal it has in | truth. For learning, as the Holy Spirit guides it to the outcome He |
| W2:WIHS.2 | becomes the means to go beyond itself, to be replaced by the Eternal | Truth. |
| W2:282.1 | me. This the determination not to be asleep in dreams of death while | truth remains forever living in the joy of life. And this the choice |
| W2:282.2 | Father, Your Name is Love, and so is mine. Such is the | truth. And can the truth be changed by merely giving it another name? |
| W2:282.2 | Your Name is Love, and so is mine. Such is the truth. And can the | truth be changed by merely giving it another name? The name of fear |
| W2:282.2 | name? The name of fear is simply a mistake. Let me not be afraid of | truth today. |
| W2:284.1 | all. And suffering of any kind is nothing but a dream. Such is the | truth—at first to be but said and then repeated many times and next |
| W2:284.1 | be considered seriously more and more, and finally accepted as the | truth. I can elect to change all thoughts that hurt. And I would go |
| W2:284.1 | go past all reservations, and arrive at full acceptance of the | truth in them. |
| W2:284.2 | but the joyous as Your gifts, accepting but the joyous as the | truth. |
| W2:287.2 | signify to me the end of dreams and futile substitutions for the | truth? You are my only goal. Your Son would be as You created him. |
| W2:WIRW.5 | taking perception with it as it goes and leaving but the | Truth to be Itself. That instant is our goal, for it contains the |
| W2:303.2 | He is the Self that You have given me. He is but what I really am in | truth. He is the Son You love above all things. He is my Self as You |
| W2:305.1 | in silence as this peace envelops it and gently carries it to | truth, no more to be the home of fear. For Love has come and healed |
| W2:307.1 | one with You in being and in will, and nothing contradicts the holy | truth that I remain as You created me. |
| W2:WILJ.3 | would condemn the world to hell along with you, accept this holy | truth: God's Judgment is the gift of the correction He bestowed on |
| W2:311.1 | Judgment was made to be a weapon used against the | truth. It separates what it is being used against and sets it off as |

| W2:WICR.3 | Creation is the opposite of all illusions, for creation is the | truth. Creation is the holy Son of God, for in creation is His Will |
| W2:323.2 | And as we pay the debt we owe to | truth—a debt which merely is the letting go of self-deceptions and |
| W2:323.2 | letting go of self-deceptions and of images we worshiped falsely— | truth returns to us in wholeness and in joy. We are deceived no |
| W2:325.2 | Our Father, Your Ideas reflect the | truth, and mine apart from Yours but make up dreams. Let me behold |
| W2:325.2 | behold what only Yours reflect, for Yours and Yours alone establish | truth. |
| W2:329.1 | interposed a second will more powerful than Yours. Yet what I am in | truth is but Your Will, extended and extending. This am I. And this |
| W2:331.1 | is sleep, and peace awakening. Death is illusion; life, Eternal | Truth. There is no opposition to Your Will. There is no conflict, for |
| W2:332.1 | The ego makes illusions. | Truth undoes its evil dreams by shining them away. Truth never makes |
| W2:332.1 | makes illusions. Truth undoes its evil dreams by shining them away. | Truth never makes attack. It merely is. And by its presence is the |

| W2:WIM.2 | distortions that were manifest. Now is perception open to the | truth. Now is forgiveness seen as justified. |

| W2:WAI.3 | have done our part. We are concerned only with giving welcome to the | truth. |
| W2:FL.2 | appointed. In the dream of time, it seems to be far off. And yet in | truth, it is already here, already serving us as gracious guidance in |
| W2:FL.2 | guidance in the way to go. Let us together follow in this way that | truth points out to us. And let us be the leaders of our many |
| W2:FL.4 | not forgive our brother who can offer this to us? He is the way, the | truth, and life that show the way to us. In him resides salvation, |

| M:4.17 | how to be simple. They have no dreams that need defense against the | truth. They do not try to make themselves. Their joy comes from their |

| M:4.25 | Terms like love, sinlessness, perfection, knowledge, and eternal | truth do not appear in this context. They would be most inappropriate |
| M:5.10 | as God created him. They recognize illusions can have no effect. The | truth in their minds reaches out to the truth in the minds of their |

| M:6.1 | to let illusions be brought to truth and keep the illusions. | Truth demonstrates illusions have no value. The teacher of God has |

| M:10.1 | the world. It is actually confused with wisdom and substitutes for | truth. As the world uses the term, an individual is capable of “good” |
| M:12.3 | can see. A voice they understand and listen to without the fear that | truth would encounter in them. Do not forget that truth can come only |
| M:12.3 | the fear that truth would encounter in them. Do not forget that | truth can come only where it is welcomed without fear. So do God's |
| M:13.1 | Although in | truth the term sacrifice is altogether meaningless, it does have |
| M:13.5 | in illusions. It is the price that must be paid for the denial of | truth. There is no pleasure of the world that does not demand this, |
| M:13.6 | voice in all the world that echoes God's. If you would sacrifice the | truth, they stay in hell. And if they stay, you will remain with them. |
| M:13.7 | can seem to happen. It seems to happen at the “sacrifice” of | truth. |
| M:14.1 | but in this way are all illusions ended? They have been brought to | truth, and truth saw them not. It merely overlooked the meaningless. |
| M:14.1 | way are all illusions ended? They have been brought to truth, and | truth saw them not. It merely overlooked the meaningless. |

| M:17.9 | Madness but seems terrible. In | truth it has no power to make anything. Like the magic which becomes |
| M:18.1 | God has ceased to confuse interpretation with fact or illusion with | truth. If he argues with his pupil about a magic thought, attacks it, |
| M:18.2 | wholly without anger. Only in this way can they proclaim the | truth about themselves. Through them, the Holy Spirit can now speak |
| M:18.2 | vision to the eyes that see. Now is He free to teach all minds the | truth of what they are, so they will gladly be returned to Him. And |
| M:18.3 | Its little space and tiny breath become the measure of reality. And | truth becomes diminutive and meaningless. Correction has one answer |
| M:18.4 | You but mistake interpretation for the | truth. And you are wrong. But a mistake is not a sin, nor has reality |
| M:19.2 | interpretation. It is, however, the one interpretation that leads to | truth. This becomes possible because, while it is not true in itself, |
| M:19.2 | it is not true in itself, justice includes nothing that opposes | truth. There is no inherent conflict between justice and truth; one |
| M:19.2 | opposes truth. There is no inherent conflict between justice and | truth; one is but the first small step in the direction of the other. |
| M:20.6 | The contrast between His Will and yours but seemed to be reality. In | truth there is no conflict, because His Will is yours. Now is the |
| M:22.6 | to recognize for him that what he believes about himself is not the | truth. It is your forgiveness that must show him this. Healing is |
| M:24.6 | if properly interpreted. In this sense it can be said that their | truth lies in their usefulness. All beliefs that lead to progress |
| M:26.1 | across the threshold of the unconscious only where all barriers to | truth have been removed. In how many is this the case? Here then is |
| M:27.7 | plays a part. Do not believe in cruelty nor let attack conceal the | truth from you. What seems to die has but been misperceived and |
| M:27.7 | Now it becomes your task to let the illusion be brought to the | truth. Be steadfast but in this; be not deceived by the “reality” of |
| M:27.7 | but in this; be not deceived by the “reality” of any changing form. | Truth neither moves nor wavers nor sinks down to death and |
| M:28.3 | is left to contradict the Word of God. There is no opposition to the | truth. And now the truth can come at last. How quickly will it come |
| M:28.3 | the Word of God. There is no opposition to the truth. And now the | truth can come at last. How quickly will it come as it is asked to |

| M:28.6 | function judgment is. And in His Final Judgment is restored the | truth about the holy Son of God. He is redeemed, for he has heard |
| M:28.6 | its meaning. He is free because he let God's Voice proclaim the | truth. And all he sought before to crucify are resurrected with him, |

| Tx:22.31 | to peace. No one who looks on it without the help of reason would | try to pass it. The body's eyes behold it as solid granite, so thick |

| W1:2.2 | Take the subjects simply as you see them. | Try to apply the exercise with equal ease to a body or a button, a |
| W1:3.1 | of the things you see may have emotionally-charged meaning for you. | Try to lay such feelings aside, and merely use these things exactly |
| W1:5.10 | Then search your mind for no more than a minute or so, and | try to identify a number of different forms of upset that are |
| W1:10.6 | thoughts which are available to you, without selection or judgment. | Try to avoid classification of any kind. In fact, if you find it |
| W1:12.2 | are done with eyes open. Look around you, this time quite slowly. | Try to pace yourself so that the slow shifting of your glance from |
| W1:12.2 | the time of the shift to become markedly longer or shorter, but | try, instead, to keep a measured, even tempo throughout. What you see |
| W1:13.8 | expected to believe the statement at this point and will probably | try to dismiss it as preposterous. Note carefully, however, any signs |
| W1:13.8 | in recognizing. Do not dwell on the concluding statement, and | try not even to think of it except during the exercise periods. That |
| W1:15.7 | many things during the minute or so of practice that is recommended, | try to make the selection as random as possible. Less than a minute |
| W1:21.3 | Try, therefore, not to let the “little” thoughts of anger escape you | |
| W1:21.6 | Try to be as specific as possible. You may, for example, focus your | |
| W1:24.7 | and so on. | Try to cover as many different kinds of outcome as may honestly occur |
| W1:25.2 | result, you are bound to misuse it. When you believe this, you will | try to withdraw the goals you have assigned to the world instead of |
| W1:26.12 | those which occur to you toward the end, less acceptable to you. | Try, however, to treat them all alike to whatever extent you can. |
| W1:27.6 | used at least every half hour, and more often if possible. You might | try for every 15 or 20 minutes. It is recommended that you set a |
| W1:27.7 | and perhaps quite a number. Do not be disturbed by this, but do | try to keep on your schedule from then on. If only once during the |
| W1:29.3 | Try then today to begin to learn how to look on all things with love, | |
| W1:29.4 | to randomly chosen subjects about you, naming each one specifically. | Try to avoid the tendency toward self-directed selection, which may |
| W1:30.4 | as “near” and “far.” To help you begin to get used to this idea, | try to think of things beyond your present range as well as those you |
| W1:31.3 | each to be considered for a moment and then replaced by the next. | Try not to establish any thought of hierarchy among them. Watch them |
| W1:31.3 | as possible. Do not dwell on any one in particular, but | try to let the stream move on evenly and calmly, without any special |
| W1:32.2 | and the other the world you see in your mind. In today's exercises, | try to introduce the thought that both are in your own imagination. |
| W1:32.3 | yourself. Then close your eyes and look around your inner world. | Try to treat them both as equally as possible. Repeat the idea for |
| W1:33.2 | your eyes and survey your inner thoughts with equal casualness. | Try to remain equally uninvolved in both and to maintain this |
| W1:34.7 | today's idea to help you change your mind in any specific context, | try to take several minutes and devote them to repeating the idea |
| W1:35.5 | more self-inflating descriptive terms may well cross your mind. | Try to recognize that the direction of your fantasies about yourself |
| W1:36.2 | Four three- to five-minute practice periods are required for today. | Try to distribute them fairly evenly, and make the shorter |
| W1:38.4 | mind for any sense of loss or unhappiness of any kind as you see it. | Try to make as little distinction as possible between a situation |
| W1:40.1 | this schedule and to adhere to it whenever possible. If you forget, | try again. If there are long interruptions, try again. Whenever you |
| W1:40.1 | possible. If you forget, try again. If there are long interruptions, | try again. Whenever you remember, try again. |
| W1:40.1 | If there are long interruptions, try again. Whenever you remember, | try again. |
| W1:41.5 | today's idea very slowly. Then make no effort to think of anything. | Try instead to get a sense of turning inward, past all the idle |
| W1:41.5 | a sense of turning inward, past all the idle thoughts of the world. | Try to enter very deeply into your own mind, keeping it clear of any |
| W1:41.6 | you may repeat today's idea if you find it helpful. But most of all, | try to sink down and inward, away from the world and all the foolish |
| W1:42.4 | close your eyes and repeat the idea again, quite slowly. After this, | try to think of nothing except thoughts which occur to you in |
| W1:42.8 | for relevant thoughts is not appropriate for today's exercises. | Try merely to step back and let the thoughts come. If you find this |
| W1:43.11 | think of anything, open your eyes, repeat the first phase, and then | try the second phase again. Do not allow any protracted period to |
| W1:43.12 | during the day. When you are with someone else, for example, | try to remember to tell him silently, |
| W1:43.14 | form is equally applicable to strangers and to those you know well. | Try, in fact, not to make distinctions of this kind at all. |
| W1:43.18 | Try today not to allow long periods of time to slip by without | |
| W1:44.7 | and close them slowly, repeating the idea several times more. Then | try to sink into your mind, letting go every kind of interference and |
| W1:44.7 | you choose to stop it. It is merely taking its natural course. | Try to observe your passing thoughts without involvement and slip |
| W1:44.9 | you will probably find it more reassuring to open your eyes briefly. | Try, however, to return to the exercises as soon as possible. |
| W1:44.10 | that you are approaching if not actually entering into light. | Try to think of light, formless and without limit, as you pass by the |
| W1:45.5 | Instead, we will | try to recognize that only what God would have us do is possible. We |
| W1:45.5 | that only what God would have us do is possible. We will also | try to understand that only what God would have us do is what we want |
| W1:45.5 | what God would have us do is what we want to do. And we will also | try to remember that we cannot fail in doing what He would have us |
| W1:45.8 | Then | try to go past all the unreal thoughts that cover the truth in your |
| W1:45.12 | In using the shorter form for applying today's idea, | try to remember how important it is to you to understand the holiness |
| W1:47.4 | Today we will | try to reach past your own weakness to the Source of real strength. |
| W1:47.6 | Now | try to slip past all concerns related to your own sense of |
| W1:47.8 | In the latter phase of the practice period, | try to reach down into your mind to a place of real safety. You will |
| W1:49.2 | illusion, frantic and distraught, but without reality of any kind. | Try today not to listen to it. Try to identify with the part of your |
| W1:49.2 | but without reality of any kind. Try today not to listen to it. | Try to identify with the part of your mind where stillness and peace |
| W1:49.2 | with the part of your mind where stillness and peace reign forever. | Try to hear God's Voice call to you lovingly, reminding you that your |
| W1:49.3 | five-minute practice periods today and more if possible. We will | try actually to hear the Voice reminding you of God and of your Self. |
| W1:R1.3 | each idea literally or thoroughly in the practice periods. Rather, | try merely to emphasize the central point and think about it as part |
| W1:59.4 | when I think I can see apart from Him. It is these I choose when I | try to see through the body's eyes. Yet the vision of Christ has been |
| W1:61.9 | first of a number of giant steps we will take in the next few weeks. | Try today to begin to build a firm foundation for these advances. |
| W1:64.8 | Let me not forget my function. Let me not | try to substitute mine for God's. Let me forgive and be happy. |
| W1:65.2 | ten to 15 minutes for a more sustained practice period in which you | try to understand and accept what today's idea really means. It |
| W1:65.3 | Try, if possible, to undertake the daily extended practice periods at | |
| W1:65.3 | extended practice periods at approximately the same time each day. | Try, also, to determine this time today in advance and then adhere to |
| W1:65.6 | concentrate only on thoughts related to the idea for today. Rather, | try to uncover each thought that arises which would interfere with |
| W1:65.8 | After a while, interfering thoughts will become harder to find. | Try, however, to continue a minute or so longer, attempting to catch |
| W1:65.10 | You need not use these exact words, but | try to get a sense of being willing to have your illusions of purpose |
| W1:66.3 | Today we will | try to go past this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the truth |
| W1:66.7 | Try to see the logic in this sequence, even if you do not yet accept | |
| W1:66.12 | Holy Spirit's Voice. You will listen to madness or hear the truth. | Try to make this choice as you think about the premises on which our |
| W1:66.13 | one side stand all illusions. All truth stands on the other. Let us | try today to realize that only the truth is true. |
| W1:67.5 | After you have gone over several such related thoughts, | try to let all thoughts drop away for a brief preparatory interval, |
| W1:67.5 | all thoughts drop away for a brief preparatory interval, and then | try to reach past all your images and preconceptions about yourself |
| W1:67.8 | Try to realize in the shorter practice periods that this is not your | |
| W1:68.5 | go. That, however, is simply a question of motivation. Today we will | try to find out how you would feel without them. If you succeed even |
| W1:68.9 | world which protects you and loves you and which you love in return. | Try to feel safety surrounding you, hovering over you, and holding |
| W1:68.9 | feel safety surrounding you, hovering over you, and holding you up. | Try to believe, however briefly, that nothing can harm you in any |
| W1:69.4 | Very quietly now, with your eyes closed, | try to let go of all the content which generally occupies your |
| W1:69.6 | importance of what you are trying to do for yourself and the world, | try to settle down in perfect stillness, remembering only how much |
| W1:69.8 | indeed be sure that it is given you, and you will yet receive it. | Try, as you attempt to go through the clouds to the light, to hold |
| W1:69.8 | the clouds to the light, to hold this confidence in your mind. | Try to remember that you are at last joining your will to God's. Try |
| W1:69.8 | Try to remember that you are at last joining your will to God's. | Try to keep the thought clearly in mind that what you undertake with |
| W1:70.12 | Now we will | try again to reach the light in you, which is where your salvation |
| W1:70.13 | when you could so easily walk on into the light of real salvation. | Try to pass the clouds by whatever means appeals to you. If it helps |
| W1:71.15 | Try to remember the idea for today some six or seven times an hour. | |
| W1:72.8 | is the universal belief of the world you see. Some hate the body and | try to hurt and humiliate it. Others love the body and try to glorify |
| W1:72.8 | the body and try to hurt and humiliate it. Others love the body and | try to glorify and exalt it. But while it stands at the center of |
| W1:72.9 | We will | try today to stop these senseless attacks on salvation. We will try |
| W1:72.9 | will try today to stop these senseless attacks on salvation. We will | try to welcome it instead. Your upside-down perception has been |
| W1:72.9 | from your awareness by the body's limitations. Now we are going to | try to see this differently. |
| W1:72.11 | therefore attacking what we do not recognize. Now we are going to | try to lay judgment aside and ask what God's plan for us is: |
| W1:73.4 | Today we will | try once more to reach the world that is in accordance with your |
| W1:74.2 | rise to illusions. Without illusions, conflict is impossible. Let us | try to recognize this today and experience the peace this recognition |
| W1:74.11 | After you have cleared your mind in this way, close your eyes and | try to experience the peace to which your reality entitles you. Sink |
| W1:74.12 | slipping off into withdrawal, quickly repeat the idea for today and | try again. Do this as often as necessary. There is definite gain in |
| W1:74.15 | Then | try to find what you are seeking. A minute or two every half-hour, |
| W1:79.7 | the answer to it. We will not assume that we already know. We will | try to free our minds of all the many different kinds of problems |
| W1:79.7 | the many different kinds of problems that we think we have. We will | try to realize that we have only one problem, which we have failed to |
| W1:79.12 | Then | try to suspend all judgment about what the problem is. If possible, |
| W1:R2.2 | listen. Repeat the first phase if you find your mind wandering, but | try to spend the major part of the practice period listening quietly |
| W1:87.5 | can become afraid only when I believe that there is another will. I | try to attack only when I am afraid, and only when I try to attack |
| W1:87.5 | another will. I try to attack only when I am afraid, and only when I | try to attack can I believe that my eternal safety is threatened. |
| W1:91.5 | today, set aside about ten minutes for a quiet time in which you | try to leave your weakness behind. This is accomplished very simply, |
| W1:91.12 | In the second phase of the exercise period, | try to experience these truths about yourself. Concentrate |
| W1:91.12 | you are a body, a belief that is mistaken and deserves no faith. | Try to remove your faith from it, if only for a moment. You will |
| W1:92.9 | stands ready to embrace you as Its own. Such is the meeting place we | try today to find and rest in, for the peace of God is where your |
| W1:93.11 | created or what you made. One Self is true; the other is not there. | Try to experience the unity of your One Self. Try to appreciate its |
| W1:93.11 | other is not there. Try to experience the unity of your One Self. | Try to appreciate its holiness and the love from which it was |
| W1:93.11 | to appreciate its holiness and the love from which it was created. | Try not to interfere with the Self which God created as you by hiding |
| W1:93.12 | able to use the first five minutes of each hour for these exercises. | Try, however, to do so when you can. At least remember to repeat |
| W1:93.14 | Then | try to devote at least a minute or so to closing your eyes and |
| W1:94.5 | Now | try to reach the Son of God in you. This is the Self that never |
| W1:95.3 | Self, which is united with its Creator. In patience and in hope we | try again today. |
| W1:95.8 | a refusal to let your mistakes be corrected and an unwillingness to | try again. |
| W1:95.12 | and nothing else is true. Today we will affirm this truth again and | try to reach the place in you in which there is no doubt that only |
| W1:95.19 | all the world. And Heaven looks to you in confidence that you will | try today. Share, then, its surety, for it is yours. Be vigilant. Do |
| W1:96.2 | fact that truth and illusion cannot be reconciled, no matter how you | try, what means you use, and where you see the problem, must be |
| W1:97.3 | Today we | try to bring reality still closer to your mind. Each time you |
| W1:99.9 | yet work miracles, be sure you practice well the idea for today. | Try to perceive the strength in what you say, for these are words in |
| W1:100.9 | Now let us | try to find that joy which proves to us and all the world God's Will |
| W1:101.4 | way he can to drown the Voice Which offers it to him? Why would he | try to listen and accept Its offering? If sin is real, its offering |
| W1:102.2 | Today we | try to loose its weakened hold still further. And to realize that |
| W1:103.3 | This basic error we will | try again to bring to truth today and teach ourselves: |
| W1:105.1 | Today we will accept them, knowing they belong to us. And we will | try to understand these gifts increase as we receive them. They are |
| W1:107.2 | what a state of mind without illusions is? How it would feel? | Try to remember when there was a time—perhaps a minute, maybe even |
| W1:107.2 | your peace; when you were certain you were loved and safe. Then | try to picture what it would be like to have that moment be extended |
| W1:110.8 | Then, with this statement firmly in your mind, | try to discover in your mind the Self Who is the holy Son of God |
| W1:R3.8 | minutes of your waking day to it. If this cannot be done, at least | try to divide them so you undertake one in the morning and the other |
| W1:R3.11 | little time in silence and in peace. Then turn to other things, but | try to keep the thought with you and let it serve to help you keep |
| W1:R3.12 | ways, all times and places, and whenever you need help of any kind. | Try, then, to take it with you in the business of the day and make it |
| W1:121.9 | does not believe that giving and receiving are the same. Yet we will | try to learn today that they are one through practicing forgiving |
| W1:121.10 | in you if you should meet him; one you actively despise or merely | try to overlook. It does not matter what the form your anger takes. |
| W1:121.11 | Now close your eyes and see him in your mind and look at him a while. | Try to perceive some light in him somewhere—a little gleam which |
| W1:121.11 | light in him somewhere—a little gleam which you had never noticed. | Try to find some little spark of brightness shining through the ugly |
| W1:121.11 | at this picture till you see a light somewhere within it, and then | try to let this light extend until it covers him and makes the |
| W1:121.12 | perception for a while, and turn your mind to one you call a friend. | Try to transfer the light you learned to see around your former |
| W1:126.8 | Today we | try to understand the truth that giver and receiver are the same. You |
| W1:131.5 | and reach it in the end. God's Son cannot seek vainly, though he | try to force delay, deceive himself, and think that it is hell he |
| W1:131.9 | the Eternal Will has given him to be his home forever? Let us not | try longer to impose an alien will upon God's single purpose. He is |
| W1:131.15 | Seek for that door and find it. But before you | try to open it, remind yourself no one can fail who asks to reach the |
| W1:133.2 | not attempt to take from you the little that you have. It does not | try to substitute utopian ideas for satisfactions which the world |
| W1:135.28 | Try not to shape this day as you believe would benefit you most. For | |
| W1:140.7 | Let us not | try today to seek to cure what cannot suffer sickness. Healing must |
| W1:140.8 | seek a cure for all illusions, not another shift among them. We will | try today to find the source of healing, which is in our minds |
| W1:168.1 | to Him? He is not distant. He makes no attempt to hide from us. We | try to hide from Him and suffer from deception. He remains entirely |
| W1:169.7 | This is beyond experience we | try to hasten. Yet forgiveness, taught and learned, brings with it |
| W1:R5.15 | that it is only here conviction lies. We use the words, and | try and try again to go beyond them to their meaning, which is far |
| W1:R5.15 | that it is only here conviction lies. We use the words, and try and | try again to go beyond them to their meaning, which is far beyond |
| W1:182.2 | No one but knows whereof we speak. Yet some | try to put by their suffering in games they play to occupy their time |
| W1:185.7 | another dream be given us. They do not ask for compromise nor | try to make another bargain in the hope that there may yet be one |
| W1:187.4 | this will change and grow unrecognizable in time, however much you | try to keep it safe. No form endures. It is the thought behind the |
| W1:193.14 | to peace in just one day. Let mercy come to you more quickly. Do not | try to hold it off another day, another minute, or another instant. |
| W1:193.16 | the lesson in forgiveness in the form established for the day. And | try to give it application to the happenings the hour brought, so |
| W1:195.1 | they can do is see themselves as better off than others. And they | try to be content because another seems to suffer more than they. How |
| W1:195.3 | Now is vengeance all there is to wish for. Now can you but | try to bring him down to lie in death with you, as useless as |
| W1:196.12 | should, for it is your release. It is indeed but you your mind can | try to crucify. Yet your redemption, too, will come from you. |
| W2:242.1 | lead my life alone today. I do not understand the world. And so to | try to lead my life alone must be but foolishness. For there is One |
| W2:246.1 | I can find the way to God if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not | try to hurt God's Son and think that I can know his Father or my |
| W2:250.1 | me behold the Son of God today and witness to his glory. Let me not | try to obscure the holy light in him and see his strength diminished |
| W2:277.1 | to rule the body. He is not subject to any laws I made by which I | try to make the body more secure. He is not changed by what is |
| W2:307.1 | and only that. There is no other will for me to have. Let me not | try to make another will, for it is senseless and will cause me pain. |
| W2:327.2 | in my experience if I but test them out. Let me attempt therefore to | try them and to judge them not. Your word is one with You. You give |
| M:4.17 | They have no dreams that need defense against the truth. They do not | try to make themselves. Their joy comes from their understanding Who |
| M:6.1 | depression, and a sense of loss so deep that the patient might even | try to destroy himself. Having nothing to live for, he may ask for |
| M:10.6 | not difficult to relinquish judgment. But it is difficult indeed to | try to keep it. The teacher of God lays it down happily the instant |
| M:11.2 | about the world, and things so opposite that it is pointless to | try to reconcile them. God offers the world salvation; your judgment |
| M:16.8 | the time when his mind is occupied with external things? He can but | try, and his success depends on his conviction that he will succeed. |

| W1:29.7 | you as you say the words unhurriedly to yourself. At least once or | twice you should experience a sense of restfulness as you do this. |
| W1:50.4 | For ten minutes | twice today, morning and evening, let the idea for today sink deep |
| W1:66.14 | practice periods, which would be most helpful today if undertaken | twice an hour, this form of the application is suggested: |
| W1:92.10 | Let us give 20 minutes | twice today to join this meeting. Let yourself be brought unto your |
| W1:R3.5 | format you should use for these reviews is this: devote five minutes | twice a day, or longer if you would prefer, to considering the |
| W1:123.7 | Receive His thanks and offer yours to Him for 15 minutes | twice today. And you will realize to Whom you offer thanks, and Whom |
| W1:126.9 | Give 15 minutes | twice today to the attempt to understand today's idea. It is the |
| W1:127.7 | understand there is no better use for time than this. For 15 minutes | twice today escape from every law in which you now believe. Open your |
| W1:132.16 | Begin the 15 minute periods in which we practice | twice today with this: |
| W1:134.5 | forgiven from the view their sins are real are pitifully mocked and | twice condemned—first by themselves for what they think they did |
| W1:134.15 | That this may be accomplished, let us give a quarter of an hour | twice today and spend it with the Guide Who understands the meaning |
| W1:135.23 | For 15 minutes | twice today, we rest from senseless planning and from every thought |
| W1:136.15 | truth. This is our aim today. And we will give a quarter of an hour | twice to ask the truth to come to us and set us free. |
| W1:159.9 | from and to which they go again with added fragrance. Now are they | twice blessed. The messages they brought from Christ have been |
| W1:184.8 | to take the name you give him as his own. And thus his unity is | twice denied, for you perceive him separate from you, and he accepts |
| M:21.1 | however, that words are but symbols of symbols. They are thus | twice removed from reality. |

| Tx:2.42 | A two-way defense is inherently weak precisely because it has | two edges and can turn against the self very unexpectedly. This |
| Tx:2.48 | the investment in physical sight. The alternating investment in the | two types or levels of perception is usually experienced as conflict |

| Tx:2.54 | ability in matter which the mind cannot control. This error can take | two forms—it can be believed that the mind can miscreate in the |
| Tx:2.76 | the will to do conflicts with what you do. This situation arises in | two ways: |

| Tx:4.102 | This is impossible without being wholly harmless because the | two beliefs coexist. The truly helpful are invulnerable because they |
| Tx:5.5 | Healing is an act of thought by which | two minds perceive their oneness and become glad. This gladness calls |

| Tx:5.73 | it for yourself be given you? What you do not understand is that the | two voices speak for different interpretations of the same thing |
| Tx:6.20 | There are | two glaring examples of upside-down thinking in the New Testament, |
| Tx:6.75 | The way out of conflict between | two opposing thought systems is clearly to choose one and relinquish |
| Tx:6.75 | your thought system, and you cannot escape this, and if you accept | two thought systems which are in complete disagreement, peace of mind |
| Tx:7.11 | believed in. The laws of mind govern thoughts, and you do respond to | two conflicting voices. You have heard many arguments on behalf of |
| Tx:7.17 | better. You will not understand His translations while you listen to | two ways of perceiving them. Therefore, you must forget or relinquish |
| Tx:7.20 | either maximal motivation or no motivation at all. Only in these | two conditions can you validly compare responses, and you must assume |
| Tx:7.49 | undo the change his ego thinks it has made in him. As you can hear | two voices, so you can see in two ways. One way shows you an image, |

| Tx:11.65 | in what you manifest, and as you look out, so will you see in. | Two ways of looking at the world are in your mind, and your |
| Tx:11.66 | seeking. Yet seeking and finding are the same, and if you seek for | two goals you will find them, but you will recognize neither. For you |
| Tx:11.68 | leads directly to dissociation, for it represents the acceptance of | two goals, each perceived in a different place, separated from each |
| Tx:12.33 | We have said that you have but | two emotions, love and fear. One is changeless but continually |
| Tx:12.37 | You have but | two emotions, yet in your private world you react to each of them as |
| Tx:12.43 | You have but | two emotions, and one you made and one was given you. Each is a way |
| Tx:12.68 | because of Him, the answer is a joyous yes! As Mediator between the | two worlds, He knows what you have need of and what will not hurt |
| Tx:14.22 | to those who would communicate as truly with you. You speak | two languages at once, and this must lead to unintelligibility. Yet |
| Tx:14.27 | is. Dissociation is a distorted process of thinking whereby | two systems of belief which cannot coexist are both maintained. It |
| Tx:14.52 | only judgment involved at all is the Holy Spirit's one division into | two categories—one of love and the other the call for love. You |
| Tx:14.54 | chosen condition. For no one alone can judge the ego truly. Yet when | two or more join together in searching for truth, the ego can no |
| Tx:14.56 | and need for love. Neither his mind nor yours holds more than these | two orders of thought. |
| Tx:15.98 | And so the ego seems to demand less of you than God, and of the | two is judged as the lesser of two evils, one to be feared a little, |
| Tx:15.98 | less of you than God, and of the two is judged as the lesser of | two evils, one to be feared a little, but the other to be destroyed. |
| Tx:16.13 | whenever you have reached another mind and joined with it. When | two minds join as one and share one idea equally, the first link in |
| Tx:16.26 | You are not | two selves in conflict. What is beyond God? If you who hold Him and |

| Tx:16.62 | join each other in separate unions and to become one by losing. When | two individuals seek to become one, they are trying to decrease their |
| Tx:17.2 | it to “evil,” it also makes it unreal. You cannot be faithful to | two masters who ask of you conflicting things. What you use in |
| Tx:17.38 | Two gifts are offered you. Each is complete and cannot be partially | |
| Tx:17.47 | is experienced as very precarious. A relationship undertaken by | two individuals for their unholy purposes suddenly has holiness for |
| Tx:17.47 | their unholy purposes suddenly has holiness for its goal. As these | two contemplate their relationship from the point of view of this new |
| Tx:18.30 | your separate pasts would hinder. You have gone past fear, for no | two minds can join in the desire for love without love's joining them. |
| Tx:18.32 | He does not ask, or you will add the ego unto Him and confuse the | two. He asks but little. It is He who adds the greatness and the |
| Tx:19.50 | respectfully before their lord and master. Perception cannot obey | two masters, each asking for messages of different things in |
| Tx:20.33 | the whole completed without your part. The ark of peace is entered | two by two, yet the beginning of another world goes with them. Each |
| Tx:20.33 | completed without your part. The ark of peace is entered two by | two, yet the beginning of another world goes with them. Each holy |

| Tx:20.34 | you two alone. For the whole new world rests in the hands of every | two who enter here to rest. And as they rest, the face of Christ |
| Tx:20.38 | end of sin and fear. Each speaks in time of what is far beyond it. | Two voices raised together call to the hearts of everyone and let |
| Tx:20.75 | Only | two purposes are possible. And one is sin, the other holiness. |
| Tx:21.2 | of God to set him free. There is no choice that lies between these | two decisions. And you will see the witness to the choice you made |
| Tx:21.25 | effects. Nothing can have effects without a cause and to confuse the | two is merely to fail to understand them both. |
| Tx:22.1 | joined have come together and need no longer look on sin apart. No | two can look on sin together, for they could never see it in the same |
| Tx:22.11 | given there, nor was received by anything except yourself. For no | two people can unite except through Christ, Whose vision sees them |
| Tx:23.9 | the same, and they are nothing. Their joining lies in nothingness; | two are as meaningless as one or as a thousand. The ego joins with |
| Tx:23.12 | The war against yourself is but the battle of | two illusions, struggling to make them different from each other in |
| Tx:23.13 | One illusion about yourself can battle with another, yet the war of | two illusions is a state where nothing happens. There is no victor, |
| Tx:23.14 | Conflict must be between | two forces. It cannot exist between one power and nothingness. There |
| Tx:23.14 | could attack that is not part of you. And by attacking it, you make | two illusions of yourself in conflict with each other. And this |
| Tx:24.29 | be and that you will oppose His Will forever. Nor is it possible the | two can ever be the same while specialness stands like a flaming |
| Tx:24.60 | the power of God maintaining it and promising success. Yet of the | two, it is this one you find more difficult. The “sacrifice” of self |
| Tx:24.72 | And thus are | two sons made, and both appear to walk this earth without a |
| Tx:25.25 | has but one law because it has but one Creator. But this world has | two who made it, and they do not see it as the same. To each it has a |
| Tx:25.29 | What then is justified? What do you want? For these | two questions are the same. And when you see them as the same, your |
| Tx:25.29 | is seeing them as one that brings release from the belief there are | two ways to see. This world has much to offer to your peace and many |
| Tx:26.24 | them and to make them different. [How simple is the choice between | two things so clearly unalike.] There is no conflict here. No |
| Tx:26.30 | to the gate of Heaven. Nothing in between is possible. There are | two teachers only, who point in different ways. And you will go along |
| Tx:26.30 | you will go along the way your chosen teacher leads. There are but | two directions you can take while time remains and choice is |
| Tx:26.52 | its own opposite, as real as it. Then would God's Will be split in | two and all creation be subjected to the laws of two opposing powers |
| Tx:26.52 | Will be split in two and all creation be subjected to the laws of | two opposing powers until God becomes impatient, splits the world |
| Tx:27.14 | brother, you have injured me, and yet because I am the better of the | two, I pardon you my hurt.” His pardon and your hurt cannot exist |
| Tx:27.24 | seem divided, with a half in opposition to a half. And these | two halves appear to represent a split within a self perceived as |
| Tx:27.24 | two halves appear to represent a split within a self perceived as | two.] |
| Tx:27.25 | is its purpose, being what it really is. From an idea of self as | two, there comes a necessary view of function split between the two. |
| Tx:27.25 | as two, there comes a necessary view of function split between the | two. And what you would correct is only half the error, which you |
| Tx:27.50 | forms. All learning aims at transfer, which becomes complete within | two situations which are seen as one, for only common elements are |
| Tx:27.70 | as they are and where they are. What choices can be made between | two states, but one of which is clearly recognized? Who could be free |
| Tx:28.52 | It is not made of little bits of glass, a piece of wood, a thread or | two perhaps, all put together to attest its truth. Reality does not |
| Tx:28.62 | between, no other choice, and no allegiance to be split between the | two. A split allegiance is but faithlessness to both and merely sets |
| Tx:29.4 | The gap between you is not one of space between | two separate bodies. This but seems to be dividing off your separate |
| Tx:29.49 | make complete what is within by splitting what you are between the | two. You choose your dreams, for they are what you wish, perceived as |
| Tx:30.9 | These | two procedures, practiced well, will serve to let you be directed |

| Tx:30.39 | of all the love in the divinity of God the Son? What idol can make | two of what is one? And can the limitless be limited? You do not want |
| Tx:30.48 | and Son joined in creation which can have no end. You have not | two realities, but one. Nor can you be aware of more than one. An |
| Tx:31.7 | The lessons to be learned are only | two. Each has its outcome in a different world. And each world |
| Tx:31.14 | is given you. You would establish truth. And by your wish, you set | two choices to be made each time you think you must decide on |
| Tx:31.15 | yourself divided into both these roles, forever split between the | two. And every friend or enemy becomes a means to help you save |
| Tx:31.17 | as easily as death, for what you choose, you choose as well for him. | Two calls you make to him, as he to you. Between these two is choice |
| Tx:31.17 | well for him. Two calls you make to him, as he to you. Between these | two is choice because from them there is a different outcome. If he |
| Tx:31.44 | is not the thing that it appears to be. For it is made to serve | two purposes, but one of which the mind can recognize. The first |
| Tx:31.52 | the concept's foolishness and merely think of this—there are | two parts to what you think yourself to be. If one was generated by |
| Tx:31.62 | flesh or recognize the Spirit. There is no compromise between the | two. If one is real the other must be false, for what is real denies |
| Tx:31.81 | is, and see the real alternatives you choose between. There are but | two. Be not deceived by what appears as many choices. There is hell |
| W1:I.3 | perception of everything in the world. The workbook is divided into | two sections, the first dealing with the undoing of what you see now |
| W1:6.4 | some upsetting thoughts more than to others, remind yourself of the | two cautions stated in the previous lesson: |
| W1:9.1 | This idea obviously follows from the | two preceding ones. But while you may be able to accept it |
| W1:23.5 | be identified and then let go, so that it can be replaced. The first | two steps in this process require your cooperation. The final one |
| W1:23.5 | not. Your images have already been replaced. By taking the first | two steps, you will see that this is so. |
| W1:24.3 | be more helpful than a more cursory examination of a large number. | Two minutes are suggested for each of the mind searching periods |
| W1:25.6 | Six practice periods, each of | two minutes duration, are required. Each practice period should begin |
| W1:26.5 | Six practice periods are required in applying today's idea. A full | two minutes should be attempted for each of them, although the time |
| W1:28.7 | We will have six | two minute practice periods today in which the idea for the day is |
| W1:31.1 | with changes as indicated. Generally speaking, the form includes | two aspects, one in which you apply the idea on a more sustained |
| W1:31.2 | Two longer periods of practice with the idea for today are needed, | |
| W1:31.2 | During that time, look about you slowly while repeating the idea | two or three times. Then close your eyes and apply the same idea to |
| W1:32.2 | them as different, the practice periods for today will again include | two phases, one involving the world you see outside you and the other |
| W1:32.3 | periods for the morning and evening by repeating the idea for today | two or three times while looking around at the world you see as |
| W1:32.4 | For the | two longer practice periods, three to five minutes are recommended, |
| W1:37.8 | who are in your thoughts; or you may use any combination of these | two phases of application which you prefer. The practice period |
| W1:42.1 | The idea for today combines | two very powerful thoughts, both of major importance. It also sets |
| W1:42.3 | We will have | two three- to five-minute longer exercise periods today, one as soon |
| W1:45.12 | the holiness of the mind that thinks with God. Take a minute or | two as you repeat the idea throughout the day to appreciate your |
| W1:46.3 | as usual. Close your eyes as you do so and spend a minute or | two in searching your mind for those whom you have not forgiven. It |
| W1:47.4 | and begin as usual by repeating today's idea. Then spend a minute or | two in searching for situations in your life which you have invested |
| W1:R1.2 | them, though each one should be practiced at least once. Devote | two minutes or more to each practice period, thinking about the idea |
| W1:61.5 | be undertaken today, although each one need not exceed a minute or | two. They should begin with telling yourself: |
| W1:61.8 | as you reaffirm your function and your only purpose here. These | two practice periods may be longer than the rest if you find them |
| W1:62.7 | Then devote a minute or | two to considering your function and the happiness and release it |
| W1:63.5 | find it easier to let related thoughts come to you in the minute or | two which you should devote to considering this. Do not, however, |
| W1:64.11 | Two forms of shorter practice periods are required. At times, do the | |
| W1:65.1 | acceptance of salvation as your only function necessarily entails | two phases: the recognition of salvation as your function and the |
| W1:66.7 | if you do not yet accept the conclusion. It is only if the first | two thoughts are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let us, |
| W1:66.9 | God has given you your function. We have seen that there are only | two parts of your mind. One is ruled by the ego and is made up of |
| W1:70.7 | We are ready for | two longer practice periods today, each of which should last some ten |
| W1:71.6 | Otherwise your purpose is divided, and you will attempt to follow | two plans for salvation which are diametrically opposed in all ways. |
| W1:71.9 | Begin the | two longer practice periods for today by thinking about today's idea, |
| W1:71.9 | today by thinking about today's idea, and realizing that it contains | two parts, each making equal contribution to the whole. God's plan |
| W1:72.18 | One or perhaps | two shorter practice periods an hour will be enough for today since |
| W1:74.15 | Then try to find what you are seeking. A minute or | two every half-hour, with eyes closed if possible, would be well |
| W1:R2.1 | review. We will begin where our last review left off and cover | two ideas each day. The earlier part of each day will be devoted to |
| W1:96.1 | Although you are One Self, you experience yourself as | two—as both good and evil, loving and hating, mind and body. This |
| W1:96.3 | no meaning cannot be resolved within the framework they are set. | Two selves in conflict could not be resolved, and good and evil have |
| W1:96.3 | self you made can never be your Self, nor can your Self be split in | two and still be what it is and must forever be. |
| W1:96.4 | A mind and body cannot both exist. Make no attempt to reconcile the | two, for one denies the other can be real. If you are physical, your |

| W1:130.5 | day in seeking not what cannot be found. It is impossible to see | two worlds which have no overlap of any kind. Seek for the one; the |
| W1:130.6 | would learn today is more than just the lesson that you cannot see | two worlds. It also teaches that the one you see is quite consistent |
| W1:130.9 | It is impossible to see | two worlds. Let me accept the strength God offers me and see no value |
| W1:130.13 | It is impossible to see | two worlds. I seek my freedom and deliverance, and this is not a part |
| W1:131.8 | its own existence and attacks itself is not of Him. He did not make | two minds, with Heaven as the glad effect of one and earth the |
| W1:131.9 | God does not suffer conflict. Nor is His creation split in | two. How could it be His Son could be in hell when God Himself |
| W1:133.4 | you choose between. We have already stressed there are but | two, however many there appear to be. |
| W1:133.12 | the real alternatives, and thus you do not realize there are but | two. And the alternative you think you chose seems fearful and too |
| W1:133.15 | Our | two extended practice periods of 15 minutes will begin with this: |
| W1:R4.10 | After your preparation, merely read each of the | two ideas assigned to you to be reviewed that day. Then close your |
| W1:R4.11 | the day began and spend a quiet moment with it. Then repeat the | two ideas you practice for the day unhurriedly, with time enough to |

| W1:166.2 | and judges it as certain, solid, trustworthy, and true believes in | two creators or in one, himself alone. But never in one God. |
| W1:170.4 | at war with you, depriving you of peace, splitting your mind into | two camps which seem wholly irreconcilable. For love now has an |
| W1:185.2 | very few they are. The world would be completely changed should any | two agree these words express the only thing they want. |
| W1:185.3 | Two minds with one intent become so strong that what they will | |
| W1:185.3 | the Will of God. For minds can only join in truth. In dreams no | two can share the same intent. To each the hero of the dream is |
| M:I.2 | To teach is to demonstrate. There are only | two thought systems, and you demonstrate that you believe one or the |
| M:2.5 | really the one who does the teaching. God's Teacher speaks to any | two who join together for learning purposes. The relationship is holy |
| M:3.2 | of what seem to be very casual encounters—a chance meeting of | two apparent strangers in an elevator, a child who is not looking |
| M:3.2 | not looking where he is going running into an adult “by accident,” | two students who happen to walk home together. These are not chance |
| M:3.2 | Even at the level of the most casual encounter, it is possible for | two people to lose sight of separate interests, if only for a moment. |
| M:3.4 | of teaching is a more sustained relationship in which for a time | two people enter into a fairly intense teaching-learning situation |
| M:8.6 | This is the gift of its Teacher—the understanding that only | two categories are meaningful in sorting out the messages the mind |
| M:8.6 | receives from what appears to be the outside world. And of these | two, but one is real. Just as reality is wholly real, apart from size |
| M:16.4 | possible after waking, take your quiet time, continuing a minute or | two after you begin to find it difficult. You may find that the |
| M:16.10 | merely that it is meaningless. Rooted in sacrifice and separation, | two aspects of one error and no more, he merely chooses to give up |
| M:23.4 | so close to what it stands for that the little space between the | two is lost the moment that the name is called to mind. Remembering |

| Tx:1.81 | is the highest communication medium. Miracles do not involve this | type of communication, because they are temporary communication |

| W1:121.11 | Try to find some little spark of brightness shining through the | ugly picture which you hold of him. Look at this picture till you see |

| Tx:1.87 | recognizes that every collapse of time brings all men closer to the | ultimate release from time in which the Son and the Father are one. |
| Tx:1.103 | However, validity is still the | ultimate goal, which reliability can only serve. Hostility, triumph, |
| Tx:1.105 | the real vision. This vision is invisible to the physical eye. The | ultimate purpose of the body is to render itself unnecessary. |
| Tx:4.9 | The | ultimate reason why learning is perceived as frightening is because |
| Tx:6.33 | making it parallel to God's way of thinking and thus guarantee their | ultimate meeting. This convergence seems to be far in the future only |
| Tx:6.80 | has degrees. Therefore, although this step is essential for the | ultimate decision, it is clearly not the final one. It is clear at |
| Tx:6.86 | between the desirable and the undesirable. It therefore makes the | ultimate choice inevitable. |
| Tx:7.78 | is attacking him to tear the Kingdom of Heaven from him. This is the | ultimate basis for all of the ego's projection. |
| Tx:11.10 | means. If you do not protect it, He will reinterpret it. That is the | ultimate value to you in learning to perceive attack as a call for |
| Tx:11.74 | and have condemned yourself to death. The death penalty is the ego's | ultimate goal, for it fully believes that you are a criminal, as |
| Tx:11.89 | that the Holy Spirit shares the goal of all good teachers, whose | ultimate aim is to make themselves unnecessary by teaching their |
| Tx:12.1 | The | ultimate purpose of projection, as the ego uses it, is always to get |
| Tx:16.47 | “victory” even to the final triumph over God. In this it sees the | ultimate freedom of the self, for nothing would remain to interfere |
| Tx:18.68 | Here is the | ultimate release which everyone will one day find in his own way, at |
| W1:12.8 | but when your words have been erased, you will see His. That is the | ultimate purpose of these exercises. |
| W1:132.5 | There is no world apart from what you wish, and herein lies your | ultimate release. Change but your mind on what you want to see, and |
| W1:184.6 | What denies that it is true is but illusion, for it is the | ultimate reality. To question it is madness; to accept its presence |

| M:3.1 | involves a different relationship at the beginning, although the | ultimate goal is always the same—to make of the relationship a holy |
| M:4.20 | pain to anyone. Patience is natural to those who trust. Sure of the | ultimate interpretation of all things in time, no outcome already |

| Tx:2.15 | All fear is | ultimately reducible to the basic misperception that man has the |
| Tx:2.39 | belief in order to set a limit on the need for the belief and | ultimately to make learning complete. The Atonement is the final |
| Tx:2.48 | more firmly established, it becomes a perceptual turning-point. This | ultimately reawakens the Spiritual eye, simultaneously weakening the |
| Tx:2.51 | the separation. The Atonement is the guarantee that they will | ultimately succeed. |
| Tx:2.100 | It should be emphasized, however, that | ultimately there is no compromise possible between everything and |
| Tx:2.102 | as any of its parts are missing. That is why the conflict cannot | ultimately be resolved until all the parts of the Sonship have |
| Tx:2.109 | sense and reflects the true meaning of the Apocalypse. Man will | ultimately look upon his own creations and will to preserve only what |
| Tx:3.31 | but knowing is the affirmation of truth. All your difficulties | ultimately stem from the fact that you do not recognize or know |
| Tx:3.37 | to each other. Knowledge preceded both perception and time and will | ultimately replace them. That is the real meaning of the Biblical |
| Tx:3.70 | decide is the fundamental question of authorship. All fear comes | ultimately and sometimes by way of very devious routes from the |
| Tx:4.59 | you are sad, know that this need not be. Depression always arises | ultimately from a sense of being deprived of something you want and |
| Tx:6.1 | so clear. Anger always involves projection of separation, which must | ultimately be accepted as entirely one's own responsibility. Anger |
| Tx:6.7 | Assault can | ultimately be made only on the body. There is little doubt that one |
| Tx:6.31 | you to use perception in a way that parallels knowledge, you will | ultimately meet it and know it. The ego would prefer to believe that |
| Tx:6.65 | who leads to God, translates communication into being, just as He | ultimately translates perception into knowledge. [You do not lose |

| Tx:8.105 | you do distort reality, you will experience anxiety, depression, and | ultimately panic, because you are trying to make yourself unreal. |
| Tx:9.27 | the therapist knows it is there. That is how perception | ultimately is translated into knowledge. The miracle worker begins by |
| Tx:12.3 | is so intense that nothing short of the crucifixion of God's Son can | ultimately satisfy it. It does not know who the Son of God is because |
| Tx:12.6 | You do not yet understand that all your fear of this course stems | ultimately from this interpretation, but if you will consider your |
| Tx:18.49 | There is nothing outside you. That is what you must | ultimately learn, for it is [in that] realization that the Kingdom of |
| Tx:18.66 | aimed at detachment from the body necessary. All such attempts will | ultimately succeed because of their purpose. Yet the means are |
| Tx:27.33 | cannot be pictured, so there is no symbol for totality. Reality is | ultimately known without a form, unpictured and unseen. Forgiveness |
| Tx:27.34 | [For this you need no pictures and no learning aids.] And what will | ultimately take the place of every learning aid will merely be. |
| W1:5.1 | the same idea to each of them separately is the first step in | ultimately recognizing they are all the same. |
| W1:19.5 | remains essential throughout. Lack of order in this connection will | ultimately make the recognition of lack of order in miracles |
| W1:26.1 | through you must also have effects on you. It is this law that will | ultimately save you. But you are misusing it now. You must therefore |
| W1:161.7 | be perceived in such a form he can be touched and seen and heard and | ultimately killed. When hatred rests upon a thing, it calls for death |
| M:4.18 | Like all the other attributes of God's teachers, this one rests | ultimately on trust, for without trust, no one can be generous in the |
| M:4.24 | legitimate goal. Forgiveness is its single aim at which all learning | ultimately converges. It is indeed enough. |
| M:13.1 | Like all things in the world, its meaning is temporary and will | ultimately fade into the nothingness from which it came when there is |

| Tx:1.102 | You are involved in | unconscious distortions which are producing a dense cover over |
| Tx:2.96 | unmindful. It is time, however, to consider the whole world of the | unconscious or “unwatched” mind. This may well frighten you because |
| Tx:2.96 | fear. The unwatched mind is responsible for the whole content of the | unconscious which lies above the miracle level. All psychoanalytic |
| Tx:2.96 | have all made one common error in that they attempted to uncover | unconscious content. You cannot understand unconscious activity in |

| Tx:2.96 | terms because “content” is applicable only to the more superficial | unconscious levels, to which the individual himself contributes. This |
| Tx:3.39 | different principles. In our picture of the psyche, there is an | unconscious level which properly consists only of the miracle ability |
| Tx:3.39 | level, which perceives or is aware of impulses from both the | unconscious and the superconscious. Consciousness is thus the level |
| Tx:3.62 | and rejected—or judged and found wanting—remains in the | unconscious because it has been perceived. One of the illusions from |
| Tx:4.45 | from the superconscious and perceives them as if they arise in the | unconscious. The ego judges what is to be accepted, and the impulses |
| Tx:4.47 | The upper level of the | unconscious thus contains the Call of God as well as the call of the |
| Tx:4.47 | of the body. That is why the basic conflict between love and fear is | unconscious; the ego cannot tolerate either and represses both by |
| Tx:4.47 | guidance. My role is to separate the true from the false in your | unconscious so it can break through the barriers the ego has set up |
| Tx:4.48 | belief in the separation. Having reduced the Soul impulses to the | unconscious, the ego has to offer you some sort of reward for |

| Tx:8.93 | You have imprisoned your will in your | unconscious, where it remains available but cannot help you. When we |
| Tx:8.93 | Spirit's function is to sort out the true from the false in your | unconscious, we meant that He has the power to look into what you |
| Tx:11.10 | unreality of fear must dawn upon you. For fear is a call for love in | unconscious recognition of what has been denied. |
| Tx:27.62 | clearly shown. Like to a dream of punishment in which the dreamer is | unconscious of what brought on the attack against himself, he sees |
| W1:136.3 | truth appears to threaten what you would believe. They seem to be | unconscious but because of the rapidity with which you choose to use |
| W1:138.8 | These mad beliefs can gain | unconscious hold of great intensity and grip the mind with terror and |

| Tx:6.26 | because you have already attacked it by projecting it. By doing this | unconsciously, you try to keep the fact that you must have attacked |
| W1:136.4 | the threat that has been judged as real? All this cannot be done | unconsciously. But afterwards your plan requires that you must forget |
unconsciousness (3) | ||
| Tx:8.82 | expressions of the fear of awakening. They are attempts to reinforce | unconsciousness out of fear of consciousness. This is a pathetic way |

| Tx:5.36 | in which the ego itself operates, or the mind would be unable to | understand the change. |

| Tx:5.43 | but truth can still set you free. Look as the Holy Spirit looks, and | understand as He understands. His understanding looks back to God in |
| Tx:5.44 | though it can grow towards it. It is possible, with great effort, to | understand someone else to some extent and to be quite helpful to |

| Tx:6.47 | is afraid of you. You cannot understand the conflict until you fully | understand one basic fact that the ego does not know. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:6.58 | the difference between sleeping and waking, so that they will | understand they need not be afraid of dreams. Then when bad dreams |

| Tx:7.15 | Holy Spirit is the translator of the laws of God to those who do not | understand them. You could not do this yourselves, because conflicted |

| Tx:7.17 | of perceiving them. Therefore, you must forget or relinquish one to | understand the other. This is the only way you can learn consistency |

| Tx:7.49 | will understand it. Understanding is appreciation, because what you | understand you can identify with, and by making it part of you, you |
| Tx:7.50 | in appreciation, and in love. The ego is totally unable to | understand this, because it does not understand what it makes; it |
| Tx:7.50 | The ego is totally unable to understand this, because it does not | understand what it makes; it does not appreciate it; and it does not |
| Tx:7.55 | because it believes that it can destroy love and therefore does not | understand what love is. If it does not understand what love is, it |
| Tx:7.55 | love and therefore does not understand what love is. If it does not | understand what love is, it cannot perceive itself as loving. This |
| Tx:7.60 | it is, and it is meaningless. The Holy Spirit does not want you to | understand conflict; He wants you to realize that, because conflict |
| Tx:7.64 | of understanding, since they mean that you believe what you can | understand is up to you to decide. The ego believes this totally, |
| Tx:7.66 | is—nothing. It has no meaning. It does not exist. Do not try to | understand it, because if you do, you are believing that it can be |
| Tx:7.80 | out of the world's thinking, just as there was only one way into it. | Understand totally by understanding totality. |
| Tx:7.87 | ego always makes, underlies its whole use of projection. It does not | understand what mind is and therefore does not understand what you |
| Tx:7.87 | It does not understand what mind is and therefore does not | understand what you are. Yet its existence is dependent on your mind, |
| Tx:8.4 | This is a condition which is so alien to the Kingdom that you cannot | understand the state which prevails within it. Your past learning |
| Tx:8.8 | without knowing it. The ego is expert only in confusion. It does not | understand anything else. As a teacher, then, it is totally confused |
| Tx:8.22 | could you make? Having made this choice, you will begin to learn and | understand why you have believed that when you met someone else, you |
| Tx:8.36 | of God, Whose Will it is. You cannot be exempt from it if you are to | understand what it is and what you are. By separating your will from |
| Tx:8.47 | to you so that you can extend yourself as He did. You do not | understand this, because you do not understand Him. No one who does |
| Tx:8.47 | yourself as He did. You do not understand this, because you do not | understand Him. No one who does not know his function can understand |
| Tx:8.47 | you do not understand Him. No one who does not know his function can | understand it, and no one can know his function unless he knows who |
| Tx:8.50 | our love and thus increase the joy of the Holy Trinity. You do not | understand this for a very simple reason. You who are God's own |
| Tx:8.50 | do not regard yourselves as valuable. Given this belief, you cannot | understand anything. I share with God the knowledge of the value He |
| Tx:8.55 | teach them through the body that this is not so, you will begin to | understand the power of the mind that is in both of you. If you use |
| Tx:9.1 | are critical in terms of the kind of “sense” they stand for. They | understand this kind of sense because it is sensible to them. To the |
| Tx:9.3 | The ego makes no sense, and the Holy Spirit does not attempt to | understand anything that arises from it. Since He does not understand |
| Tx:9.3 | to understand anything that arises from it. Since He does not | understand it, He does not judge it, knowing that nothing it |
| Tx:9.5 | this becomes the one way in which you handle all errors, you cannot | understand how all errors are undone. How is this different from |
| Tx:9.26 | Healing is not mysterious. Nothing will occur unless you | understand it, since light is understanding. A “miserable sinner” |
| Tx:9.29 | minds to the Holy Spirit through Him and not yourself, you will | understand that you are not obeying the laws of this world, but that |
| Tx:9.41 | how completely different these evaluations are, because you do not | understand how lofty the Holy Spirit's perception of you really is. |
| Tx:9.48 | of the ego becomes perfectly apparent. Though it does not | understand this, the ego believes that its “enemy” has struck and |
| Tx:9.71 | gift, because you have accepted something else in its place. If you | understand that the misuse of defenses always constitutes an attack |
| Tx:9.71 | fearful. If you further recognize that you are part of God, you will | understand why it is that you always attack yourself first. |
| Tx:9.107 | If you will accept only what is timeless as real, you will begin to | understand eternity and make it yours. |
| Tx:10.18 | without meaning. And being without meaning to you, you will not | understand it. To deny meaning must be to fail to understand. You can |
| Tx:10.18 | you, you will not understand it. To deny meaning must be to fail to | understand. You can heal only yourself, for only God's Son needs |
| Tx:10.18 | for only God's Son needs healing. He needs it because he does not | understand himself and therefore knows not what he does. Having |
| Tx:10.30 | for until you have accepted them, you cannot enter. For you cannot | understand Wholeness unless you are whole, and no part of the Son can |
| Tx:10.53 | acceptance, for to analyze means to separate out. The attempt to | understand totality by breaking it up is clearly the |
| Tx:10.55 | The ego makes no attempt to | understand this, and it is clearly not understandable, but the ego |
| Tx:10.75 | as little children. Little children recognize that they do not | understand what they perceive, and so they ask what it means. Do not |
| Tx:10.75 | ask what it means. Do not make the mistake of believing that you | understand what you perceive, for its meaning is lost to you. Yet the |
| Tx:10.76 | guide at all. Instruction in perception is your great need, for you | understand nothing. Recognize this but do not accept it, for |
| Tx:10.80 | You complain that this course is not sufficiently specific for you to | understand it and use it. Yet it has been very specific, and you have |
| Tx:10.82 | Spirit is to ask for deprivation. Little Children of God, you do not | understand your Father. You believe in a world that takes, because |
| Tx:10.89 | fear lies not in reality, but in the minds of children who do not | understand reality. It is only their lack of understanding which |
| Tx:10.89 | One who knows it, and He will tell you what they are. For you do not | understand them, and because you are deceived by what you see, you |
| Tx:11.1 | own right, and to believe in truth, you do not have to do anything. | Understand that you do not respond to stimuli, but to stimuli as you |
| Tx:11.2 | represents a clear-cut attempt to demonstrate your own ability to | understand what you perceive. This is shown by the fact that you |
| Tx:11.5 | It is surely good advice to tell you not to judge what you do not | understand. No one with a personal investment is a reliable witness, |
| Tx:11.17 | of little children which terrify them because they do not | understand them. If they ask for enlightenment and accept it, their |
| Tx:11.28 | For you will surely place yourself among the poor, who do not | understand that they dwell in abundance and that salvation is come. |
| Tx:11.48 | is your handicap. Do not attempt to teach yourselves what you do not | understand, and do not try to set up curriculum goals where yours |
| Tx:11.51 | the proper learning conditions, which you can neither provide nor | understand, you will become excellent learners and teachers. But it |
| Tx:11.63 | do is clearly beyond all of them. Perceiving His results, you will | understand where He must be and finally know what He is. |
| Tx:11.87 | the knowledge of the Father was lost, since only those who do not | understand Him could believe it. |
| Tx:11.94 | in God's Son. And only as you look upon him as guiltless can you | understand his oneness. For the idea of guilt brings a belief in |
| Tx:11.96 | time, proceeding from past to future. No one who believes this can | understand what always means. And therefore guilt must deprive you of |
| Tx:12.6 | as the final guilt which fully justifies murder. You do not yet | understand that all your fear of this course stems ultimately from |
| Tx:12.44 | Son, they have risen in Him to the Father. And all this will they | understand because they looked within and saw beyond the darkness the |
| Tx:12.66 | your understanding only in the past. Yet here it is, and you can | understand it now. God loves His Son forever, and His Son returns his |
| Tx:13.22 | not look within and let it go. They cannot know they love and cannot | understand what loving is. Their main concern is to perceive the |
| Tx:13.58 | but only the simple truth. And you will love it because you will | understand it. |
| Tx:13.73 | that increasing guilt is self-protection.] And they will fail to | understand the simple fact that what they do not want must hurt them. |
| Tx:13.74 | provide that offers them anything of value. Yet because they do not | understand their will, the Holy Spirit quietly understands it for |
| Tx:13.76 | relinquishing his own. You know not of salvation, for you do not | understand it. Make no decisions about what it is or where it lies, |
| Tx:13.89 | this guilt by failing to fulfill your function here? You need not | understand creation to do what must be done before that knowledge |
| Tx:14.1 | learn how impossible this is! Do not endow Him with attributes you | understand. You made Him not, and anything you understand is not of |
| Tx:14.1 | with attributes you understand. You made Him not, and anything you | understand is not of Him. |
| Tx:14.2 | God so little, hear me speak for Him and for yourselves. You cannot | understand how much your Father loves you, for there is no parallel |
| Tx:14.2 | for there is no parallel in your experience of the world to help you | understand it. There is nothing on earth with which it can compare |
| Tx:14.7 | to the denial of guilt in all its forms. To accuse is not to | understand. The happy learners of the Atonement become the teachers |
| Tx:14.16 | of dark for light, of ignorance for understanding. Nothing you | understand is fearful. It is only in darkness and in ignorance that |
| Tx:14.16 | for its hiddenness. The obscure is frightening because you do not | understand its meaning. If you did, it would be clear, and you would |
| Tx:14.21 | You who speak in dark and devious symbols do not | understand the language you have made. It has no meaning, for its |
| Tx:14.43 | what the mirror holds out for everyone to see no one can fail to | understand. It is the message that the Holy Spirit is holding to the |
| Tx:14.48 | They can be simultaneous and legion. This is not difficult to | understand, once you conceive of them as possible at all. What is |
| Tx:14.53 | must be. Otherwise, it will attack the form. You who believe you | understand something of the dynamics of the mind, let me assure you |
| Tx:14.56 | the Holy Spirit translate His communications through you so you can | understand them. God has no secret communications, for everything of |
| Tx:14.60 | no meaning at all. Nothing you have ever learned can help you | understand the present or teach you how to undo the past. Your past |
| Tx:14.60 | is what you have taught yourselves. Let it all go. Do not attempt to | understand any event or anything or anyone in its light, for the |
| Tx:14.72 | motivation for learning by thinking they already know. Think not you | understand anything until you pass the test of perfect peace, for |
| Tx:15.19 | witness to Him will speak so clearly of Him that you will hear and | understand. |
| Tx:15.22 | Be not content with littleness, but be sure you | understand what littleness is and why you could never be content with |
| Tx:15.30 | it with little gifts, thus valuing it too little to be able to | understand its magnitude. Love is not little, and love dwells in you, |
| Tx:15.45 | becomes impossible without the past, for without it you do not | understand anything. You would make no attempt to judge because it |
| Tx:15.47 | You cannot love parts of reality and | understand what love means. If you would love unlike to God, Who |
| Tx:15.47 | you would love unlike to God, Who knows no special love, how can you | understand it? To believe that special relationships, with special |
| Tx:15.54 | it. Give to it any meaning apart from His, and it is impossible to | understand it. Every brother God loves as He loves you—neither less |
| Tx:15.63 | would give yourself as your Father gives His Self, you will learn to | understand Selfhood. And therein is love's meaning understood. But |
| Tx:15.64 | to do this, you will learn what you must be, for you will begin to | understand what your Creator is and what His creation is along with |
| Tx:15.78 | of your wholeness, all are invited and made welcome. And you | understand that your completion is God's, Whose only need is to have |
| Tx:15.83 | The Holy Spirit is God's attempt to free you of what He does not | understand. And because of the Source of the attempt, it will |
| Tx:15.83 | you to respond as God does, for He would teach you what you do not | understand. God would respond to every need, whatever form it takes. |
| Tx:15.83 | to receive His communication to you and yours to Him. God does not | understand your problem in communication, for He does not share it |
| Tx:15.84 | alone lies the awareness of what God cannot know and what you do not | understand. It is His holy function to accept them both, and by |
| Tx:15.100 | easy! Salvation is simple, being of God and therefore very easy to | understand. Do not try to project it from you and see it outside |
| Tx:15.107 | see not the body as the necessary means of communication. And if you | understand this lesson, you will realize that to sacrifice the body |
| Tx:15.110 | will be lacking, and you will make complete and not destroy. Say and | understand this: |
| Tx:16.1 | not mean to join in suffering, for that is what you must refuse to | understand. That is the ego's interpretation of empathy and is always |
| Tx:16.1 | let Him use it in His way. [His way is very different.] He does not | understand suffering and would have you teach it is not |
| Tx:16.5 | completely. You will not know how to respond to what you do not | understand. Be tempted not in this, and yield not to the ego's |
| Tx:16.10 | the extension of holiness, for the nature of miracles you do not | understand. Nor do you do them. It is their extension, far beyond the |
| Tx:16.10 | you worry how the miracle extends to all the Sonship when you do not | understand the miracle itself? One attribute is no more difficult to |
| Tx:16.10 | understand the miracle itself? One attribute is no more difficult to | understand than is the whole. If miracles are at all, their |
| Tx:16.11 | away from the whole to what you think you might be better able to | understand. For this is but another way in which you would still try |
| Tx:16.11 | and far more helpful way to think of miracles is this: You do not | understand them, either in part or whole. Yet you have done them. |
| Tx:16.11 | necessary. Yet it is still impossible to accomplish what you do not | understand. And so there must be something in you that does |
| Tx:16.11 | do not understand. And so there must be something in you that does | understand. |
| Tx:16.12 | what is natural to them. And when you are told about it, you cannot | understand it. The recognition of the part as whole and of the whole |
| Tx:16.12 | it involves a contradiction of what miracles mean. And if you could | understand their meaning, their attributes could hardly cause you |
| Tx:16.13 | as He knows how, His natural perception of your gift enables Him to | understand it and you to use His understanding on your behalf. It is |
| Tx:16.13 | through your willingness, as long as you believe that you must | understand it or else it is not real. |
| Tx:16.14 | really believe that all that has happened, even though you do not | understand it, has not happened? Yet this is your position. You would |
| Tx:16.14 | you. For this acknowledgment means that what has happened you do not | understand but that you are willing to accept it because it has |
| Tx:16.15 | it? Honor the truth that has been given you, and be glad you do not | understand it. Miracles are natural to God and to the One Who speaks |
| Tx:16.42 | you in your creation. On this side of the bridge to timelessness you | understand nothing. But as you step lightly across it, upheld by |
| Tx:16.59 | defined it by His Will. It is impossible to define it otherwise and | understand it. |
| Tx:16.66 | keep part of the thought system which taught you it was real and | understand the Thought that really knows what you are. You have |
| Tx:17.14 | will hear them. And you who kept them by your own selection do not | understand how they came into your minds and what their purpose is. |
| Tx:17.29 | Who was God's answer to the separation. For although the ego did not | understand what had been created, it was aware of threat. |
| Tx:17.50 | Accept with gladness what you do not | understand, and let it be explained to you as you perceive its |
| Tx:18.27 | holiness of your relationship is established in Heaven. You do not | understand what you accepted, but remember that your understanding is |
| Tx:18.27 | is not necessary. All that was necessary was merely the wish to | understand. That wish was the desire to be holy. The Will of God is |
| Tx:18.32 | He joins with you to make the holy instant far greater than you can | understand. It is your realization that you need do so little that |
| Tx:18.39 | truth and makes it what it is. Yet we have emphasized that you need | understand nothing. Salvation is easy just because it asks nothing |
| Tx:18.44 | of means and purpose is an undertaking impossible for you to | understand. You do not even realize you have accepted the Holy |
| Tx:20.16 | true. Who need adjust to truth, which calls on only what he is, to | understand? |
| Tx:20.25 | in joy the instant they are made free. It takes a while for them to | understand what freedom is. You groped but feebly in the dust and |
| Tx:20.47 | never make return. They can be loved, but cannot love. They do not | understand what they are offered, and any relationship in which they |
| Tx:21.6 | lessons dear and cling to them because they cannot see. They do not | understand the lessons keep them blind. This they do not believe. And |
| Tx:21.25 | effects without a cause and to confuse the two is merely to fail to | understand them both. |
| Tx:21.51 | one It makes. Miracles seem unnatural to the ego because it does not | understand how separate minds can influence each other. Nor could |
| Tx:21.52 | capable of reason. How can the segment of the mind devoid of reason | understand what reason is or grasp the information it would give? All |
| Tx:21.62 | And if you would defend the body against your reason, you will not | understand the body or yourself. |
| Tx:21.65 | whole salvation seen as complete with yours. Reason is given you to | understand that this is so. For reason, kind as is the purpose for |
| Tx:21.68 | for completing Him. And here alone does reason tell you that you can | understand what you must be. Your Father is as close to you as is |
| Tx:21.74 | to perceive a world where it is not. It is not necessary that he | understand how he can see it. Nor should he try. For if he focuses on |
| Tx:21.74 | can see it. Nor should he try. For if he focuses on what he cannot | understand, he will but emphasize his helplessness and let sin tell |
| Tx:21.86 | could even imagine what it must be, you would desire it although you | understand it not. |

| Tx:22.6 | to understand its messages. You did not realize it is impossible to | understand what fails entirely to reach you. |
| Tx:22.7 | You have received no messages at all you | understand. For you have listened to what can never communicate at |
| Tx:22.7 | not true. Reason would tell you it cannot be true because you do not | understand it. God has no secrets. He does not lead you through a |
| Tx:22.9 | Your sight was given you, along with everything that you can | understand. You will perceive no difficulty in understanding what |
| Tx:22.9 | what he thinks he is. And what your sight would show you, you will | understand because it is the truth. Only your vision can convey to |
| Tx:22.9 | Nor will it ever be made understandable by an interpreter you cannot | understand. |
| Tx:22.10 | Of all the messages you have received and failed to | understand, this course alone is open to your understanding and can |

| Tx:22.11 | returned to you, and he will speak the language both of you can | understand. He is not nurtured by the “something else” you thought |
| Tx:22.12 | you, my holy brothers. This child will teach you what you do not | understand and make it plain. For his will be no alien tongue. He |

| Tx:23.44 | little. Nor is it possible to attack for this and love for that and | understand forgiveness. Would you not want to recognize assault upon |
| Tx:23.50 | you have the power to extend to all. Yet does the Holy Spirit | understand how to increase your little gifts and make them mighty. |

| Tx:25.18 | yours, and you will see the masterpiece. Look at its loveliness, and | understand the Mind that thought it, not in flesh and bones, but in a |
| Tx:25.19 | Within the darkness, see the savior from the dark and | understand your brother as his Father's Mind shows him to you. He |
| Tx:25.21 | not to you. For what you give is His, and giving it you learn to | understand His gift to you. And give the Holy Spirit what He offers |
| Tx:25.42 | what the Will of God must be for you. In your forgiveness will you | understand His love for you; through your attack believe He hates |
| Tx:25.49 | in the plan to save the Son of God from all attack and let him | understand that he is safe, as he has always been and will remain in |
| Tx:25.55 | Test everything that you believe against this one requirement. And | understand that everything that meets this one demand is worthy of |

| Tx:25.60 | at all. You who believe that God is mad, look carefully at this and | understand that it must be that either God or this must be insane, |
| Tx:25.67 | It is extremely hard for those who still believe sin meaningful to | understand the Holy Spirit's justice. |
| Tx:25.68 | to themselves and to their world than vengeance, which they | understand and love. |
| Tx:25.70 | and have denied themselves because they are not fair and cannot | understand that they are innocent. Love is not understandable to |
| Tx:25.75 | You can be perfect witness to the power of love and justice if you | understand it is impossible the Son of God could merit vengeance. You |
| Tx:25.76 | because you are a miserable sinner too. How can the special really | understand that justice is the same for everyone? To take from one to |
| Tx:26.10 | It is not difficult to | understand the reasons why you do not ask the Holy Spirit to solve |
| Tx:26.30 | A little hindrance can seem large indeed to those who do not | understand that miracles are all the same. Yet teaching that is what |
| Tx:26.74 | you seek to be content with sighing and with “reasoning” you do not | understand it now but will some day. And then its meaning will be |
| Tx:27.27 | you can rest assured that He will not fulfill a function He cannot | understand and recognize as His. For only thus can He keep yours |
| Tx:27.29 | the idea a something it is not and make it unintelligible. Who can | understand a double concept, such as “weakened-power” or as |
| Tx:27.53 | yourself. Its total value need not be appraised by you to let you | understand that you have benefited from it. What occurred within the |
| Tx:27.82 | and real effects. Together, we can laugh them both away and | understand that time cannot intrude upon eternity. It is a joke to |
| Tx:27.87 | single cause of all of them, no matter what their form. And you will | understand that miracles reflect the simple statement, |
| Tx:28.7 | of hate appear, remember that their cause is gone. And so you cannot | understand what they are for. Let not the cause that you would give |
| Tx:28.10 | You who have sought to lay a judgment on your own Creator cannot | understand it is not He Who laid a judgment on His Son. You would |

| Tx:28.42 | in yours, his dreams will [disappear before his eyes], and he will | understand what made the dream. |
| Tx:28.50 | is for. It is as little able to perceive as it can judge or | understand or know. Its eyes are blind; its ears are deaf. It cannot |
| Tx:28.53 | You who believe there is a little gap between you, do not | understand that it is here that you are kept as prisoners in a world |
| Tx:28.54 | in the dust. It does not tell you what its purpose is and cannot | understand what it is for. It does not victimize because it has no |
| Tx:29.10 | Heaven and in God? Until you realize you give up nothing, until you | understand there is no loss, you will have some regrets about the way |
| Tx:29.20 | those who think that God is lessened by their strength could fail to | understand this must be so. For who could give unless he has, and who |
| Tx:29.22 | light means it is gone. In glory will you see your brother then and | understand what really fills the gap so long perceived as keeping you |
| Tx:29.35 | light the touch of evil on it may appear to be. For you would | understand how great the cost of holding anything God did not give in |
| Tx:29.45 | each will fail him, all excepting one; for he will die and does not | understand the idol that he seeks is but his death. Its form appears |
| Tx:29.66 | he thinks is real. Nor have its laws been changed because he did not | understand. |
| Tx:30.32 | this day to promise it to all the world. It needs but two to | understand that they cannot decide alone to guarantee the joy they |
| Tx:30.33 | Do you not | understand that to oppose the Holy Spirit is to fight yourself? He |
| Tx:30.53 | making things appear like to itself? Look calmly at its toys and | understand that they are idols which but dance to vain desires. Give |
| Tx:30.54 | not concern yourself with how this will be done, for this you cannot | understand. But you will understand that mighty changes have been |
| Tx:30.54 | how this will be done, for this you cannot understand. But you will | understand that mighty changes have been quickly brought about when |
| Tx:30.57 | to twist and fit into the dream of fear. Instead, there is a wish to | understand all things created as they really are. And it is |
| Tx:30.81 | Look on your brother with this hope in you, and you will | understand he could not make an error that could change the truth in |
| Tx:30.87 | communicate with him and he with you. In symbols which you both can | understand, the sacrifice of meaning is undone. All sacrifice entails |
| Tx:30.88 | of us. Our common language lets us speak to all our brothers and to | understand with them forgiveness has been given to us all, and thus |
| Tx:31.2 | you believe that what is totally confused is easier to learn and | understand. What you have taught yourselves is such a giant learning |
| Tx:31.8 | in the selfsame tongue in which the call was made. And you will | understand it was this call that everyone and everything within the |
| Tx:31.10 | attack and pleads that love restore the dying world! You do not | understand Who calls to you beyond each form of hate, each call to |
| Tx:31.22 | than this will you be asked to learn. But as you hear it, you will | understand you need but come away without the thoughts you did not |
| Tx:31.35 | lesson in itself. The lesson has a purpose, and in this you come to | understand what it is for. |
| Tx:31.36 | look for hope where there is none. Make fast your learning now, and | understand you but waste time unless you go beyond what you have |
| Tx:31.39 | will not advance the purpose to be found. If this be difficult to | understand, then is this course impossible to learn. But only then. |
| Tx:31.64 | be your choice. For you can see the body without help but do not | understand how to behold a world apart from it. It is your world |
| Tx:31.64 | never find. Be not concerned how this could ever be. You do not | understand how what you see arose to meet your sight. For if you did, |
| W1:I.3 | is to train the mind to generalize the lessons, so that you will | understand that each of them is as applicable to one situation as it |
| W1:3.2 | as they appear to you now, and to realize how little you really | understand about them. It is therefore essential that you keep a |
| W1:7.4 | It is the reason why you do not | understand anything you see. |
| W1:8.1 | the present, which is the only time there is. It therefore cannot | understand time and cannot, in fact, understand anything. |
| W1:8.1 | there is. It therefore cannot understand time and cannot, in fact, | understand anything. |
| W1:9.1 | necessary at this point. In fact, the recognition that you do not | understand is a prerequisite for undoing your false ideas. These |
| W1:9.1 | not with understanding. You do not need to practice what you really | understand. It would indeed be circular to aim at understanding and |
| W1:12.5 | terms occur to you, use them along with the rest. You may not yet | understand why these “nice” adjectives belong in these exercises, but |
| W1:14.2 | you find them comfortable. If you do, it will be because you really | understand what they are for. |
| W1:15.2 | call seeing will not have much meaning for you. You will begin to | understand it when you have seen little edges of light around the |
| W1:16.3 | unreal. We will practice this idea in many forms before you really | understand it. |
| W1:19.2 | thoughts. Despite your initial resistance to this idea, you will yet | understand that it must be true if salvation is possible at all. And |
| W1:25.4 | purpose cannot be understood at these levels. For example, you do | understand that a telephone is for the purpose of talking to someone |
| W1:25.4 | who is not physically in your immediate vicinity. What you do not | understand is what you want to reach him for. And it is this that |
| W1:26.4 | Practice with today's idea will help you to | understand that vulnerability or invulnerability is the result of |
| W1:29.3 | vision has shown you the holiness that lights up the world, you will | understand today's idea perfectly. And you will not understand how |
| W1:29.3 | world, you will understand today's idea perfectly. And you will not | understand how you could ever have found it difficult. |
| W1:41.4 | We | understand that you do not believe all this. How could you, when the |
| W1:45.5 | that only what God would have us do is possible. We will also try to | understand that only what God would have us do is what we want to do. |
| W1:45.12 | applying today's idea, try to remember how important it is to you to | understand the holiness of the mind that thinks with God. Take a |
| W1:51.4 | [3] I do not | understand anything I see. How could I understand what I see when I |
| W1:51.4 | [3] I do not understand anything I see. How could I | understand what I see when I have judged it amiss? What I see is the |
| W1:51.4 | What I see is the projection of my own errors of thought. I do not | understand what I see because it is not understandable. There is no |
| W1:51.4 | see because it is not understandable. There is no sense in trying to | understand it. But there is every reason to let it go and make room |
| W1:52.4 | on the past to prevent the present from dawning on my mind. Let me | understand that I am trying to use time against God. Let me learn to |
| W1:55.2 | Son. The very fact that I see such things is proof that I do not | understand God. Therefore I also do not understand His Son. What I |
| W1:55.2 | is proof that I do not understand God. Therefore I also do not | understand His Son. What I see tells me that I do not know who I am. |
| W1:57.5 | of God instead of the rules which I made up for it to obey. I will | understand that peace, not war, abides in it. And I will perceive |
| W1:57.6 | holy. As I share the peace of the world with my brothers, I begin to | understand that this peace comes from deep within myself. The world I |
| W1:57.6 | to see what my illusions about myself had kept hidden. I begin to | understand the holiness of all living things including myself, and |
| W1:59.3 | Let me call upon this gift today, so that this day may help me to | understand eternity. |
| W1:59.5 | define what seeing is, and I have been wrong. Now it is given me to | understand that God is the Light in which I see. Let me welcome |
| W1:61.2 | idea is the epitome of self-glorification. But the ego does not | understand humility, mistaking it for self-debasement. Humility |
| W1:62.3 | call upon the strength of Christ in you. Do you not then begin to | understand what forgiveness will do for you? It will remove all sense |
| W1:65.2 | 15 minutes for a more sustained practice period in which you try to | understand and accept what today's idea really means. It offers you |
| W1:72.11 | replace attack with acceptance. As long as we attack it, we cannot | understand what God's plan for us is. We are therefore attacking what |
| W1:72.12 | What is salvation, Father? I do not know. Tell me, that I may | understand. |
| W1:72.16 | What is salvation, Father? I do not know. Tell me, that I may | understand. |
| W1:74.3 | these thoughts several times, slowly and with firm determination to | understand what they mean and to hold them in mind: |
| W1:75.9 | Realize that your forgiveness entitles you to vision. | Understand that the Holy Spirit never fails to give the gift of sight |
| W1:76.1 | with laws as senseless as itself. You are not bound by them. Yet to | understand that this is so, you must first realize salvation lies not |
| W1:76.5 | a mask the mind holds up to hide what really suffers. It would not | understand it is its own enemy, that it attacks itself and wants to |
| W1:79.6 | constancy in all the problems which confront you, you would | understand that you have the means to solve them all. And you would |
| W1:81.5 | not depend on my recognizing what my function is, for I do not yet | understand forgiveness. Yet I will trust that in the light I will see |
| W1:90.2 | is always some form of grievance which I would cherish. Let me also | understand that the solution is always a miracle with which I let the |
| W1:90.5 | The Holy Spirit will teach me this if I will let Him. And I will | understand it is impossible that I could have a problem which has not |
| W1:95.2 | It does not see the oneness in you, for it is blind. It does not | understand you are the Son of God, for it is senseless and |
| W1:95.20 | forget your goal. Repeat today's idea as frequently as possible and | understand each time you do so, someone hears the voice of hope, the |
| W1:97.5 | Give Him the minutes which He needs today to help you | understand with Him you are the Spirit that abides in Him, and Which |
| W1:98.11 | Give Him the words, and He will do the rest. He will enable you to | understand your special function. He will open up the way to |
| W1:100.6 | Today we will attempt to | understand joy is our function here. If you are sad, your part is |
| W1:105.1 | we will accept them, knowing they belong to us. And we will try to | understand these gifts increase as we receive them. They are not like |
| W1:105.6 | yours. Let Him complete Himself as He defines completion. You will | understand that what completes Him must complete His Son as well. He |
| W1:106.8 | Today we practice giving, not the way you | understand it now, but as it is. Each hour's exercises should begin |
| W1:106.10 | thinking giving is a way to lose. And so the world becomes ready to | understand and to receive. |
| W1:110.10 | savior from all idols you have made. For when you find Him you will | understand how worthless are your idols and how false the images |
| W1:R3.1 | which you are urged to follow just as closely as you can. We | understand, of course, that it may be impossible for you to undertake |
| W1:123.8 | Receive His thanks, and you will | understand how lovingly He holds you in His Mind, how deep and |
| W1:124.11 | Perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you will look into this glass and | understand the sinless light you see belongs to you, the loveliness |
| W1:124.11 | God, in certainty that His return will be a sense of love you cannot | understand, a joy too deep for you to comprehend, a sight too holy |
| W1:124.11 | you can be sure someday, perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you will | understand and comprehend and see. |
| W1:126.1 | forgiveness, certainty of goal, and sure direction. You would | understand the means by which salvation comes to you and would not |
| W1:126.6 | You do not | understand forgiveness. As you see it, it is but a check upon overt |
| W1:126.8 | Today we try to | understand the truth that giver and receiver are the same. You will |
| W1:126.9 | Give 15 minutes twice today to the attempt to | understand today's idea. It is the thought by which forgiveness takes |
| W1:126.10 | In silence close your eyes upon the world which does not | understand forgiveness and seek sanctuary in the quiet place where |
| W1:126.10 | to hear the Voice of truth and healing speak to you, and you will | understand the words He speaks and recognize He speaks your words to |
| W1:127.2 | is withheld from others. To believe these things of love is not to | understand it. If it could make such distinctions it would have to |
| W1:127.7 | Let us together, then, be glad to give some time to God today and | understand there is no better use for time than this. For 15 minutes |
| W1:127.8 | means. He will shine through your idle thoughts today and help you | understand the truth of love. In loving gentleness, He will abide |
| W1:129.10 | eyes cannot behold. And yet your mind can see it plainly and can | understand. A day of grace is given you today, and we give thanks. |
| W1:129.11 | Now do we | understand there is no loss, for we have seen its opposite at last, |
| W1:131.16 | and you are standing in a light so bright and clear that you can | understand all things you see. A tiny moment of surprise, perhaps, |
| W1:132.6 | is often stated in the text and must be borne in mind if you would | understand the lesson for today. It is not pride which tells you that |
| W1:132.8 | readiness will bring the lesson to them in some form which they can | understand and recognize. Some see it suddenly on point of death and |
| W1:132.19 | But you will sense your own release, although you may not fully | understand as yet that you could never be released alone. |
| W1:138.2 | cannot enter here unless it is reflected in some form the world can | understand. Truth cannot come where it could only be perceived with |
| W1:R4.6 | start each practice period in this review with readying our minds to | understand the lessons that we read and see the meaning which they |
| W1:151.3 | touch reality and close upon the truth. This is awareness which you | understand and think more real than what is witnessed to by the |
| W1:153.4 | are its slave. You know not what you do in fear of it. You do not | understand how much you have been made to sacrifice who feel its iron |
| W1:154.3 | your function and relays it to you, giving you the strength to | understand it, do what it entails, and to succeed in everything you |
| W1:154.7 | by their acceptance of His messages as for themselves and show they | understand the messages by giving them away. They choose no roles |
| W1:154.8 | they are yours and do not recognize them. No one can receive and | understand he has received until he gives. For in the giving is his |
| W1:154.15 | will spring to our sight and leap into our hands, and we will | understand what we received. |
| W1:155.4 | have suffered from a sense of loss still deeper, which they did not | understand. |
| W1:155.9 | they may see something with which they can identify, something they | understand to lead the way. |
| W1:159.2 | You | understand that you are healed when you give healing. You accept |
| W1:166.10 | know about a plan so alien to His Will. There was a need He did not | understand, to which He gave an Answer. That is all. And you who have |
| W1:166.13 | give to all who chose the lonely road you have escaped. They do not | understand they but pursue their wishes. It is you who teach them |
| W1:167.11 | what we think today. And in His thoughts, which have no opposite, we | understand there is one life and that we share with Him, with all |
| W1:169.9 | There is no need to further clarify what no one in the world can | understand. When revelation of your oneness comes, it will be known |
| W1:R5.2 | as does a father lead a little child along a way he does not | understand. Yet does he follow, sure that he is safe because his |
| W1:R5.8 | by which all fears and doubts are overcome. We walk together. I must | understand uncertainty and pain, although I know they have no |
| W1:182.3 | homes he makes, yet none contents his restless mind. He does not | understand he builds in vain. The home he seeks cannot be made by |
| W1:184.9 | become but means by which you can communicate in ways the world can | understand, but which you recognize is not the unity where true |
| W1:184.10 | which you go into the sunlight and forget the darkness. Here you | understand the Word, the Name Which God has given you; the One |
| W1:184.14 | a different name for each awareness of an aspect of God's Son, we | understand that they have but One Name, Which He has given them. It |
| W1:185.6 | it are given in a form each mind which seeks for it in honesty can | understand. Whatever form the lesson takes is planned for him in such |
| W1:190.9 | assaults with which you seek to hide your holiness. Here will you | understand there is no pain. Here does the joy of God belong to you. |
| W1:192.1 | you have a function in the world in its own terms. For who can | understand a language far beyond his simple grasp? |
| W1:192.7 | our attack. Our understanding is so limited that what we think we | understand is but confusion born of error. We are lost in mists of |
| W1:193.1 | does not know of learning. Yet His Will extends to what He does not | understand in that He wills the happiness His Son inherited of Him be |
| W1:193.3 | in Heaven and in God. Thus He encompassed what He could not see nor | understand by giving of His Love and making Answer to a question |
| W1:194.4 | temporal progression still seems real. And so you are not asked to | understand the lack of sequence really found in time. You are but |
| W1:196.1 | insane belief that to attack a brother saves yourself. And you will | understand his safety is your own, and in his healing you are healed. |
| W1:196.2 | Perhaps at first you will not | understand how mercy, limitless and with all things held in its sure |
| W1:196.2 | is quick to cite the truth to save its lies. Yet must it fail to | understand the truth it uses thus. But you can learn to see these |
| W1:196.8 | this one today. From there we go ahead quite rapidly. For once you | understand it is impossible that you be hurt except by your own |
| W1:R6.6 | For thus is freedom given us from all we did not know and failed to | understand. |
| W2:I.10 | for practice almost done. For in this final section we will come to | understand that we need only call to God and all temptations |
| W2:240.2 | Son and set him free. Let us forgive him in Your Name, that we may | understand his holiness and feel the love for him that is Your own as |
| W2:242.1 | I will not lead my life alone today. I do not | understand the world. And so to try to lead my life alone must be but |
| W2:243.1 | know what must remain beyond my present grasp. I will not think I | understand the whole from bits of my perception, which are all that I |
| W2:248.2 | as You created me. Now is Your Love remembered and my own. Now do I | understand that they are one. |
| W2:275.1 | day been chosen as the time when we will seek and hear and learn and | understand. Join me in hearing. For the Voice of God tells us of |
| W2:275.1 | me in hearing. For the Voice of God tells us of things we cannot | understand alone, nor learn apart. It is in this that all things are |
| W2:286.1 | This is the day that has been chosen as the time in which I come to | understand the lesson that there is no need that I do anything. In |
| W2:299.1 | My holiness is far beyond my own ability to | understand or know. Yet God my Father, Who created it, acknowledges |
| W2:301.2 | it as a cause of further joy in them. We wept because we did not | understand. But we have learned the world we saw was false, and we |
| W2:302.1 | forgive Your holy world today that I may look upon its holiness and | understand it but reflects my own. |
| W2:311.1 | it makes of it what you would have it be. It judges what it cannot | understand because it cannot see totality and therefore judges |
| W2:321.1 | I did not | understand what made me free nor what my freedom is nor where to look |
| W2:337.1 | me, now already mine, to feel God's Love protecting me from harm, to | understand my Father loves His Son, to know I am the Son my Father |
| W2:WIM.2 | law of truth the world does not obey because it fails entirely to | understand its ways. A miracle inverts perception which was |
| W2:WIM.4 | has been made ready to conceive of what it cannot see and does not | understand. Yet faith will bring its witnesses to show that what it |
| W2:FL.5 | God and found it was a dream. We are restored to sanity in which we | understand that anger is insane, attack is mad, and vengeance merely |
| W2:FL.5 | than that. And is a father angry at his son because he failed to | understand the truth? |
| W2:FL.6 | We come in honesty to Him and say we did not | understand and ask Him to help us to learn His lessons through the |
| M:2.2 | In order to | understand the teaching-learning plan of salvation, it is necessary |

| Tx:21.36 | first they chose to recognize how much their faith had limited their | understanding of the world, desiring to place its power elsewhere |
| Tx:21.86 | The constancy of joy is a condition quite alien to your | understanding. Yet if you could even imagine what it must be, you |
| Tx:22.9 | that you can understand. You will perceive no difficulty in | understanding what this vision tells you, for everyone sees only what |
| Tx:22.10 | received and failed to understand, this course alone is open to your | understanding and can be understood. This is your language. You do |

| Tx:23.19 | Let us, then, look upon them calmly, that we may look beyond them, | understanding what they are, not what they would maintain. It is |
| Tx:25.8 | His Father never have been separate, and Christ abides within your | understanding in the part of you that shares His Father's Will. The |
| Tx:25.42 | must be hell. Look once again upon your brother, not without the | understanding that he is the way to Heaven or to hell as you perceive |
| Tx:25.75 | is but shadows of all that is really happening within yourself. The | understanding which you need comes not of you but from a larger Self, |
| Tx:25.75 | to Him that He may smile on you whose sinlessness He shares. His | understanding will be yours. And so the Holy Spirit's special |
| Tx:26.59 | Its failure lies in that you still feel guilty, though without | understanding why. Effects are seen as separate from their source and |
| Tx:30.39 | seek. When you decide upon the form of what you want, you lose the | understanding of its purpose. So you see your will within the idol, |
| Tx:30.58 | Here, it is thought that | understanding is acquired by attack. There, it is clear that by |
| Tx:30.58 | is acquired by attack. There, it is clear that by attack is | understanding lost. The folly of pursuing guilt as goal is fully |
| Tx:30.60 | with him. No one outside of Heaven knows how this can be, for | understanding this is Heaven itself. Even the real world has a |
| Tx:30.64 | His Father's love rests upon Him. His gratitude to you is past your | understanding, for you have enabled Him to rise from chains and go |
| Tx:30.72 | This | understanding is the only change that lets the real world rise to |

| W1:42.7 | You may, in fact, be astonished at the amount of course-related | understanding some of your own thoughts contain. Let them come |
| W1:45.11 | to realize how high you are trying to go. Yet even with the little | understanding you have already gained, you should be able to remind |
| W1:58.2 | I can accept the innocence that is the truth about me. Seen through | understanding eyes, the holiness of the world is all I see, for I can |
| W1:58.5 | make me afraid. And because I am unafraid, everyone must share in my | understanding, which is the gift of God to me and to the world. |
| W1:70.1 | also realize that guilt and salvation must be in the same place. | Understanding this you are saved. |
| W1:80.1 | at peace. Salvation does depend on recognizing this one problem and | understanding that it has been solved. One problem—one solution. |

| W1:126.10 | and false beliefs laid by. Repeat today's idea, and ask for help in | understanding what it really means. Be willing to be taught. Be glad |
| W1:134.11 | who believes in them. He has been gently wakened from his dream by | understanding what he thought he saw was never there. And now he |
| W1:134.13 | beneficence. There is no thought in all the world which leads to any | understanding of the laws it follows nor the thought which it |
| W1:138.9 | seen and understood. All that is veiled in shadows must be raised to | understanding to be judged again, this time with Heaven's help, and |
| W1:R4.5 | Let us begin our preparation with some | understanding of the many forms in which the lack of true forgiveness |
| W1:R5.1 | we undertake. We recognize we are preparing for another phase of | understanding. We would take this step completely, that we may go on |

| Tx:7.18 | your Creator did. This needs no translation, because it is perfectly | understood, but it does need extension because it means extension. |
| Tx:7.46 | His laws. Yet if healing is consistence, it cannot be inconsistently | understood. Understanding means consistence because God means |
| Tx:7.60 | you to realize that, because conflict is meaningless, it cannot be | understood. We have already said that understanding brings |
| Tx:7.60 | appreciation, and appreciation brings love. Nothing else can be | understood, because nothing else is real, and therefore nothing else |

| Tx:8.86 | means exactly what it says. So does the Bible, if it is properly | understood. There has been a marked tendency on the part of many of |

| Tx:17.17 | taken in the making, the maintaining, and the breaking off of the | unholy relationship is a move toward further fragmentation and |
| Tx:17.18 | Time is indeed unkind to the | unholy relationship. For time is cruel in the ego's hands, as it is |

| Tx:17.23 | this is true. You have made the relationship unreal and therefore | unholy by seeing it where it is not and as it is not. Give the past |
| Tx:17.24 | the past is now your justification for entering into a continuing, | unholy alliance with the ego against the present. For the present is |

| Tx:3.51 | the means for the return to knowledge, which was accomplished by the | union of my will with the Father's. We can now make a distinction |
| Tx:5.18 | His and partly yours. The miracle itself is just this fusion or | union of will between Father and Son. The Holy Spirit is the spirit |
| Tx:5.53 | and the awareness that to share them is to strengthen them. The | union of the Sonship is its protection. The ego cannot prevail |
| Tx:8.18 | joint will. This is perfect creation by the perfectly created in | union with Perfect Creator. The Father must give fatherhood to His |

| Tx:11.13 | with the fact of unity. For the separation is only the denial of | union and, correctly interpreted, attests to your eternal knowledge |

| Tx:15.75 | and if your bodies are together your minds remain your own. The | union of bodies thus becomes the way in which you would keep minds |
| Tx:15.88 | not through yours. Yet your minds are already continuous, and their | union need only be accepted, and the loneliness in Heaven is gone. |
| Tx:15.91 | Him wholly in an instant. [For you would place no limits on your | union with Him.] The reality of this relationship becomes the only |
| Tx:15.92 | It is in your power in time to delay the perfect | union of the Father and the Son. For in this world, the attraction of |
| Tx:15.94 | as real, guilt will hold no attraction for you. For in our | union, you will accept all of our brothers. The gift of union is the |
| Tx:15.94 | For in our union, you will accept all of our brothers. The gift of | union is the only gift that I was born to give. Give it to me, that |
| Tx:16.37 | your brothers with gratitude because your creations were created in | union with them. Acceptance of your creations is the acceptance of |
| Tx:16.39 | The bridge that leads to | union in yourself must lead to knowledge, for it was built with God |
| Tx:16.41 | from your willingness to unite with Him and created by His joy in | union with you. The journey that seemed to be endless is almost |
| Tx:16.45 | In Heaven, where the meaning of love is known, love is the same as | union. Here, where the illusion of love is accepted in love's place, |
| Tx:16.47 | is accomplished. The Holy Spirit knows that completion lies first in | union and then in the extension of union. To the ego, completion lies |
| Tx:16.47 | that completion lies first in union and then in the extension of | union. To the ego, completion lies in triumph and in the extension of |
| Tx:16.47 | with it. This is its idea of Heaven. From this it follows that | union, which is a condition in which the ego cannot interfere, must |
| Tx:16.48 | relationship is the triumph of this confusion. It is a kind of | union from which union is excluded, and the basis for the attempt at |
| Tx:16.48 | is the triumph of this confusion. It is a kind of union from which | union is excluded, and the basis for the attempt at union rests on |
| Tx:16.48 | union from which union is excluded, and the basis for the attempt at | union rests on exclusion. What better example could there be of the |
| Tx:16.49 | and tries to “trade” itself for the self of another. This is not | union, for there is no increase and no extension. Each partner tries |
| Tx:16.50 | both partners see this special self in each other, the ego sees “a | union made in Heaven.” For neither one will recognize that he has |
| Tx:16.60 | separate yourself from it. For the love of God, no longer seek for | union in separation nor for freedom in bondage! As you release, so |
| Tx:16.62 | their magnitude. Each would deny his power, for the separate | union excludes the universe. Far more is left outside than would be |
| Tx:16.62 | taken in. For God is left without and nothing taken in. If one such | union were made in perfect faith, the universe would enter into it. |
| Tx:17.16 | love. And finally why all such relationships become the attempt at | union through the body, for only bodies can be seen as means for |
| Tx:17.17 | the unholy relationship, it is not the body of the other with which | union is attempted but the bodies of those who are not there. Even |
| Tx:17.19 | really brings to it, the “better” it becomes. Thus, the attempt at | union becomes a way of excluding even the one with whom the union was |
| Tx:17.19 | at union becomes a way of excluding even the one with whom the | union was sought. For it was formed to get him out of it and join |
| Tx:17.21 | each step in His undoing is the separation more and more undone and | union brought closer. He is not at all confused by any “reasons” for |
| Tx:18.59 | given up the illusion of a limited awareness and lost your fear of | union. The love that instantly replaces it extends to what has freed |
| Tx:18.85 | Be you not separate, for the One Who does surround it has brought | union to you, returning your little offering of darkness to the |
| Tx:19.4 | of a brother as a body, and the body cannot be used for purposes of | union. If, then, you see your brother as a body, you have established |
| Tx:19.11 | a part of love as fear is of attack. Faith is the acknowledgment of | union. It is the gracious acknowledgment of everyone as a Son of your |
| Tx:19.35 | grace that has been given you. For sin will not prevail against a | union Heaven has smiled upon. Your perception was healed in the holy |
| Tx:19.49 | truth, for there it sees itself, with which it would unite in holy | union and completion. As love must look past fear, so must fear see |
| Tx:19.64 | be asked of you? There is no obstacle which you can place before our | union, for in your holy relationship, I am there already. We will |
| Tx:19.66 | the Father and the Son are joined. Oh come ye faithful to the holy | union of the Father and Son in you! And keep you not apart from what |
| Tx:19.84 | all its sick ideas and weird imaginings. Here is the final end of | union, the triumph of the ego's making over creation, the victory of |
| Tx:19.86 | quietly in the safety of your relationship, protected by your | union, ready to grow into a mighty force for God, is very near. The |
| Tx:19.92 | blotted out and unremembered. Here is your promise never to allow | union to call you out of separation; the great amnesia in which the |
| Tx:20.17 | between those who would meet to keep them separate and prevent their | union. It is this studied interference which makes it difficult for |
| Tx:20.26 | is only holiness and joining without limit. For what is Heaven but | union, direct and perfect, and without the veil of fear upon it? Here |
| Tx:20.26 | my Self. Your gift unto each other has given me the certainty our | union will be soon. |
| Tx:20.45 | between him and his Father. His real relationship is one of perfect | union and unbroken continuity. The one he made is partial, |
| Tx:21.27 | does not delude himself that he is independent of his Source. His | union with It is the Source of his creating. Apart from this he has |
| Tx:21.29 | goal. For they are bargains with reality, toward which the seeming | union is adjusted. Forget not this—to bargain is to set a limit, |
| Tx:21.57 | The part of mind where reason lies was dedicated by your will in | union with your Father's to the undoing of insanity. Here was the |
| Tx:22.4 | And reason now can lead you to the logical conclusion of your | union. It must extend, as you extended when you joined. It must reach |
| Tx:22.49 | recognized how little stands between you and your awareness of your | union! Be not deceived by the illusions it presents of size and |
| Tx:22.64 | you will realize that your relationship is a reflection of the | union of the Creator and His Son. From loving minds there is no |
| Tx:25.74 | and justice are not separate. And both are strengthened by their | union with each other. Without love is justice prejudiced and weak. |
| Tx:26.4 | to truth? He is invisible in such a world. Nor can his song of | union and of love be heard at all. Yet is it given him to make the |
| Tx:26.24 | undone by change of purpose in what once was specialness and now is | union? All illusions are but one. And in the recognition this is so |
| Tx:28.43 | in Him is always one. No one is sick if someone else accepts his | union with him. His desire to be a sick and separated mind cannot |

| W1:185.4 | compromise alone a dream can bring. Sometimes it takes the form of | union, but only the form. The meaning must escape the dream, for |
| W1:200.11 | solitary dreams with single purpose and companionship. For peace is | union if it be of God. We seek no further. We are close to home and |

| Tx:16.26 | where nothing is. You have taught this, and from far off in the | universe, yet not beyond yourself, the witnesses to your teaching |
| Tx:16.62 | Each would deny his power, for the separate union excludes the | universe. Far more is left outside than would be taken in. For God is |

| Tx:19.42 | barrier and keep separate from each other seems mightier than the | universe, for it would hold back the universe and its Creator. This |

| Tx:22.48 | This is your “enemy”—a frightened mouse that would attack the | universe. How likely is it that it will succeed? Can it be difficult |
| Tx:22.48 | the hymn of praise to its Creator which every heart throughout the | universe forever sings as one? Which is the stronger? Is it this tiny |
| Tx:22.61 | attack another or yourself than to attack the great Creator of the | universe, whose power you know. |
| Tx:22.62 | safe nor dangerous. It is impossible. And this is so because the | universe is one. You would not choose attack on its reality if it |
| Tx:22.65 | The light that joins you shines throughout the | universe, and because it joins you, so it makes you one with your |

| Tx:24.51 | Nothing is lost to you in all the | universe. Nothing that God created has He failed to lay before you |
| Tx:24.59 | with anything beyond the body. In its eyes, you are a separate | universe with all the power to hold itself complete within itself, |
| Tx:25.26 | it still within the laws of God; not as the law itself upholds the | universe as God created it, but in some form adapted to the need the |
| Tx:25.77 | You have the right to all the | universe—to perfect peace, complete deliverance from all effects of |
| Tx:26.20 | the words imply a limited reality, a partial truth, a segment of the | universe made true. This is because knowledge makes no attack upon |
| Tx:26.27 | altar to rise and tower far above the world and reach beyond the | universe to touch the heart of all creation? What is Heaven but a |
| Tx:26.29 | what was tiny then has soared into a magnitude of song in which the | universe has joined with but a single voice. This tiny spot of sin |
| Tx:27.89 | learned. Salvation is a secret you have kept but from yourself. The | universe proclaims it so. Yet to its witnesses you pay no heed at |
| Tx:28.16 | Its starting and its ending are the same. But in itself it holds the | universe of all creation, without beginning and without an end. |
| Tx:29.39 | What he is cannot be changed. He is the only thing in all the | universe that must be one. What seems eternal all will have an end. |
| Tx:30.36 | Think not He wills to bind you, Who has made you co-creator of the | universe along with Him. He would but keep your will forever and |
| Tx:31.64 | is this done? It is not done at all. What could there be within the | universe which God created that must still be done? |
| Tx:31.74 | all lead you out of hell with those you love beside you and the | universe with them. |
| Tx:31.75 | Behold your role within the | universe! To every part of true creation has the Lord of Love and |
| W1:28.5 | about it is its real purpose, the purpose it shares with all the | universe. |
| W1:28.6 | for today, you are therefore really asking to see the purpose of the | universe. You will be making this same request of each subject which |
| W1:29.2 | Yet we emphasized yesterday that a table shares the purpose of the | universe. And what shares the purpose of the universe shares the |
| W1:29.2 | the purpose of the universe. And what shares the purpose of the | universe shares the purpose of its Creator. |
| W1:52.6 | and part of its Creator. Would I not rather join the thinking of the | universe than to obscure all that is really mine with my pitiful and |
| W1:54.5 | am alone in nothing. Everything I think or say or do touches all the | universe. A Son of God cannot think or speak or act in vain. He |
| W1:68.6 | cherish grievances of some sort. This has left you alone in all the | universe in your perception of yourself. |
| W1:69.7 | Your little effort and small determination call on the power of the | universe to help you, and God Himself will raise you from darkness |
| W1:70.3 | Today's idea places you in charge of the | universe, where you belong because of who you are. This is not a role |
| W1:92.2 | that lights the sun and gives it all its warmth or that you had the | universe imprisoned in your hand, securely bound until you let it go. |
| W1:110.1 | have made no changes in yourself which have reality, nor changed the | universe so that what God created was replaced by fear and evil, |
| W1:124.1 | light which blesses and which heals. At one with God and with the | universe, we go our way rejoicing, with the thought that God Himself |
| W1:136.11 | made blind by your illusions, truth turned into lies, and all the | universe made slave to laws which your defenses would impose on it. |
| W1:136.12 | God knows not of your plans to change His Will. The | universe remains unheeding of the laws by which you thought to govern |
| W1:152.8 | own. Decide but to accept your rightful place as co-creator of the | universe, and all you think you made will disappear. What rises to |
| W1:156.5 | The Light in you is what the | universe longs to behold. All living things are still before you, for |
| W1:182.11 | must beseech his father for protection and for love. He rules the | universe, and yet He asks unceasingly that you return with Him and |
| W1:183.12 | are soundless now. The little things of earth have disappeared. The | universe consists of nothing but the Son of God who calls upon his |
| W1:188.5 | For what your inward vision looks upon is your perception of the | universe. |
| W1:191.3 | and which laughs at God. Deny your own Identity, and you assail the | universe alone, without a friend, a tiny particle of dust against the |
| W1:196.5 | from him and waiting to destroy his life and blot him from the | universe, without the fear of hell upon his heart? |
| W1:200.1 | me. No one but is my brother. I am blessed with oneness with the | universe and God, my Father, One Creator of the whole that is my |
| W2:253.2 | creating like Yourself and one with You. My Self, Which rules the | universe, is but Your will in perfect union with my own, which can |
| W2:341.1 | whom You smile in love and tenderness so deep and dear and still the | universe smiles back on You and shares Your holiness. How pure, how |
| W2:341.1 | so perfect that the Lord of Sinlessness conceives us as His Son, a | universe of thought completing Him. |
| M:20.6 | The Will of God is one and all there is. This is your heritage. The | universe beyond the sun and stars and all the thoughts of which you |
| M:27.2 | In this perception of the | universe as God created it, it would not be possible to think of Him |

| Tx:26.74 | And then its meaning will be clear. This is not reason, for it is | unjust and clearly hints at punishment until the time of liberation |
| Tx:26.87 | to him because you do not know him as yourself. What could be more | unjust than that he be deprived of what he is, denied the right to be |
| Tx:27.2 | what to you has been unfair will come to him in righteousness. The | unjust vengeance that you suffer now belongs to him, and when it |
| M:19.1 | however, forgiveness depends on justice since all attack can only be | unjust. Justice is the Holy Spirit's verdict upon the world. Except |
unjustifiable (2) | ||
| Tx:6.10 | There can be no justification for the | unjustifiable. Do not believe there is, and do not teach that there |
| Tx:6.15 | My brothers and yours are constantly engaged in justifying the | unjustifiable. My one lesson, which I must teach as I learned, is |
unjustified (5) | ||
| Tx:13.27 | as condemned. The moment that you realize guilt is insane, wholly | unjustified, and wholly without reason, you will not fear to look |
| Tx:22.62 | this while you believe attack of any kind means anything. It is | unjustified in any form because it has no meaning. The only way it |
| Tx:30.71 | is not real by not perceiving what has not occurred. If pardon were | unjustified, you would be asked to sacrifice your rights when you |
| Tx:30.72 | as a gift unwarranted, it must uphold the guilt you would “forgive.” | Unjustified forgiveness is attack. And this is all the world can ever |
| W1:134.1 | which entails an unfair sacrifice of righteous wrath, a gift | unjustified and undeserved, and a complete denial of the truth. In |

| Tx:14.26 | in something that does not exist. It is only this belief that the | unknowing have, and by it they are wrong about themselves. They have |
| Tx:31.82 | vision is withheld, and what they see is death. Their savior stands, | unknowing and unknown, beholding them with eyes unopened. And they |
| W1:169.12 | finally attain to it forever while a part of you remains outside, | unknowing, unawakened, and in need of you as witness to the truth? |

unknowingness (1) | ||
| Tx:14.36 | is the truth. Nothing can change the knowledge given you by God into | unknowingness. Everything God created knows its Creator. For this is |
unknown (29) | ||
| Tx:3.21 | Sacrifice is a notion totally | unknown to God. It arises solely from fear. This is particularly |
| Tx:7.33 | result, in a state of mind which does not know Him. The state is | unknown to Him and therefore does not exist, but those who sleep are |
| Tx:7.95 | The unfulfilled must be depressed, because their self-fullness is | unknown to them. Your creations are protected for you, because the |
| Tx:8.48 | Son if they so choose. This choice does make the Son's function | unknown to him, but never to his Creator. And because it is not |
| Tx:8.48 | unknown to him, but never to his Creator. And because it is not | unknown to his Creator, it is forever knowable to him. |

| Tx:21.3 | sightless “see” must be imagined, for what it really looks like is | unknown to them. They must infer what could be seen from evidence |
| Tx:21.32 | only before the state of certainty is reached. In Heaven they are | unknown. Yet Heaven is reached through them. |
| Tx:21.42 | Remember that the ego is not alone. Its rule is tempered, and its | unknown “enemy,” Whom it cannot even see, it fears. Loudly the ego |
| Tx:23.10 | to Whom all conflict, triumph, and attack of any kind are all | unknown. He loves you perfectly, completely, and eternally. The Son |

| Tx:26.55 | what you are. Facts are unchanged. Yet facts can be denied and thus | unknown, though they were known before they were denied. |
| Tx:26.85 | Its simple presence shuts the door to Theirs and keeps Them there | unknown. |
| Tx:27.34 | itself it is the same. The other half of what it represents remains | unknown but is not canceled out. And thus is God left free to take |
| Tx:31.82 | and what they see is death. Their savior stands, unknowing and | unknown, beholding them with eyes unopened. And they cannot see until |
| W1:91.2 | even though it is there. You cannot use it because its presence is | unknown to you. And the seeming reality of the darkness makes the |
| W1:110.9 | you are lost and do not know yourself while He is unacknowledged and | unknown. |
| W1:158.3 | a journey that is over. Yet it seems to have a future still | unknown to us. |

| W1:166.5 | Yet in his lonely, senseless wanderings, God's gifts go with him, all | unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But he will not look at what is |
| W1:168.5 | acceptance. We acknowledge our mistakes, but He to Whom all error is | unknown is yet the One Who answers our mistakes by giving us the |

| Tx:31.50 | be undone if any peace of mind is to be given you. Nor can it be | unlearned except by lessons aimed to teach that you are something |
| W1:158.6 | contradictions reconciled, for here the journey ends. Experience, | unlearned, untaught, unseen, is merely there. This is beyond our |

| Tx:4.16 | the author of fear. You are. You have chosen, therefore, to create | unlike Him, and you have made fear for yourselves. You are not at |
| Tx:9.97 | your Father did not create them. You cannot make creators who are | unlike your Creator any more than He could have created a Son who was |
| Tx:9.97 | your Creator any more than He could have created a Son who was | unlike Him. If creation is sharing, it cannot create what is unlike |
| Tx:9.97 | who was unlike Him. If creation is sharing, it cannot create what is | unlike itself. It can share only what it is. Depression is isolation, |
| Tx:10.29 | of God, or you will not know that you are there. For what is | unlike God cannot enter His Mind because it was not His Thought and |
| Tx:10.44 | willing. His Will is one because the extension of His Will cannot be | unlike itself. The real conflict you experience, then, is between the |
| Tx:10.71 | is true. To establish your personal autonomy, you tried to create | unlike your Father, believing what you made to be capable of being |
| Tx:10.71 | unlike your Father, believing what you made to be capable of being | unlike Him. Yet everything in what you have made that is true is like |
| Tx:11.33 | It is not a world of will because it is governed by the desire to be | unlike Him, and this desire is not will. The world you made is |
| Tx:13.30 | making them unreal. You can love only as God loves. Seek not to love | unlike Him, for there is no love apart from His. Until you recognize |
| Tx:14.4 | making them unable to communicate because each sees the other | unlike the way he sees himself. God can communicate only to the Holy |
| Tx:15.47 | parts of reality and understand what love means. If you would love | unlike to God, Who knows no special love, how can you understand it? |
| Tx:16.59 | perceives all love as special. Yet this cannot be natural, for it is | unlike the relationship of God and His Son, and all relationships |
| Tx:16.59 | the relationship of God and His Son, and all relationships that are | unlike this one must be unnatural. For God created love as He would |
| Tx:19.25 | you are, you will always want it. And only an avenger with a mind | unlike your own could stamp it out through fear. |
| Tx:19.31 | Himself, and it is impossible that what is part of Him is totally | unlike the rest. If sin is real, God must be at war with Himself. He |
| Tx:21.76 | questions but not yet the last. For this one still seems fearful and | unlike the others. Yet reason would assure you they are all the same. |
| Tx:22.2 | and then move on. And so they wander through a world of strangers | unlike themselves, living with their bodies perhaps under a common |
| Tx:23.20 | because the values differ and those who hold them seem to be | unlike and therefore enemies. |
| Tx:24.6 | God created cannot be attacked, for there is nothing in the universe | unlike itself. But what is different calls for judgment, and this |
| Tx:24.14 | at all. Here is the self-made “savior,” the “creator” who creates | unlike the Father and which made His Son like to itself and not like |
| Tx:25.87 | giving and receiving are the same. Because it does not make the same | unlike, it sees no differences where none exist. And thus it is the |
| Tx:27.90 | innocent or guilty. The one thing that is impossible is that you be | unlike each other; that they both be true. This is the only secret |
| Tx:28.18 | are your “creations,” you the “other” mind, creating with effects | unlike yourself. And as their “father,” you must be like them. |
| Tx:28.36 | This is a feast | unlike indeed to those the dreaming of the world has shown. For here, |
| Tx:28.42 | is the same seems different because what is the same appears to be | unlike. His dreams are yours because you let them be. But if you took |
| Tx:29.16 | larger dream that change is possible. To change is to attain a state | unlike the one in which you found yourself before. There is no change |
| Tx:29.40 | changeless it appears to be. Think not that you can set a goal | unlike God's purpose for you and establish it as changeless and |
| W1:4.1 | Unlike the preceding ones, these exercises do not begin with the idea | |
| W1:68.2 | awareness. It seems to split you off from your Source and make you | unlike Him. It makes you believe that He is like what you think you |
| W1:68.2 | you think you have become, for no one can conceive of his Creator as | unlike himself. |
| W1:72.4 | if His Son is only a body, so must He be as well. A creator wholly | unlike his creation is inconceivable. |
| W1:96.6 | itself and hiding in the body's frail support. Now must it reconcile | unlike with like, for this is what it thinks that it is for. |
| W1:127.9 | we raise our eyes upon a different present, where a future shines | unlike the past in every attribute. |
| W1:132.12 | If you are real, the world you see is false, for God's creation is | unlike the world in every way. And as it was His thought by which you |
| W1:135.17 | that here and now is everything it needs to guarantee a future quite | unlike the past without a continuity of any old ideas and sick |

| Tx:10.49 | you overlook love, you are overlooking yourself, and you must fear | unreality because you have denied yourself. By believing that you |
| Tx:11.10 | fear and if you see attack as the call for help that it is, the | unreality of fear must dawn upon you. For fear is a call for love in |
| Tx:13.3 | of reality can still be seen, and they will replace aspects of | unreality. Aspects of reality can be seen in everything and |

| Tx:17.17 | the unholy relationship is a move toward further fragmentation and | unreality. The shadow figures enter more and more, and the one in |
| Tx:18.5 | so vast and so completely incredible that from it a world of total | unreality had to emerge. What else could come of it? Its fragmented |
| Tx:18.19 | The special relationship] is your determination to keep your hold on | unreality and to prevent yourself from waking. And while you see more |
| Tx:21.50 | a sense of worthlessness, and feelings of impermanence and | unreality. You will believe that you are helpless prey to forces far |
| Tx:26.33 | thing you look upon you saw but for an instant, long ago before its | unreality gave way to truth. Not one illusion still remains |
| Tx:27.72 | hate, the instant of disaster, all are here. Here is the cause of | unreality. And it is here that it will be undone. |
| Tx:30.56 | happy dreams. The gap is emptied of the toys of fear, and then its | unreality is plain. Dreams are for nothing. And the Son of God can |
| Tx:30.91 | this—a prayer the miracle touch not some dreams but keep their | unreality obscure and give to them reality instead. And Heaven gives |
| W1:13.2 | fearful that the void may otherwise be used to demonstrate its own | unreality. And on this alone it is correct. |
| W1:130.7 | distinctions, nor attempt to bring with us a little part of | unreality as we devote our minds to finding only what is real. |
| W1:134.6 | It is sin's | unreality that makes forgiveness natural and wholly sane, a deep |
| W1:184.10 | to darkness, not because you think it real, but only to proclaim its | unreality in terms which still have meaning in the world which |
| W2:342.1 | I made. It is not real. And You have given me the means to prove its | unreality to me. The key is in my hand, and I have reached the door |
| M:8.5 | as opposed to a smaller one? Will he agree more quickly to the | unreality of a louder voice he hears than to that of a softer one? |

| Tx:9.87 | be out of control is to be out of reason, and the mind does become | unreasonable without reason. This is merely a matter of definition. |

unrecognized (15) | ||
| Tx:14.25 | wherever you are, being within you. Yet it can be recognized or | unrecognized, real or false to you. If you hide it, it becomes unreal |
| Tx:16.30 | in this you do not realize. And until you do, the split will remain | unrecognized and therefore unhealed. |
| Tx:19.81 | pride of guilt, the sepulcher of separation—all are part of your | unrecognized dedication to death. The glitter of guilt you laid upon |
| Tx:24.4 | each other, because conflicting outcomes are impossible. But an | unrecognized belief is a decision to war in secret, where the results |
| Tx:24.4 | of peace, your least decision to choose attack instead of love, | unrecognized and swift to challenge you to combat and to violence far |
| Tx:24.5 | All that is ever cherished as a hidden belief, to be defended though | unrecognized, is faith in specialness. This takes many forms but |
| Tx:24.10 | The fear of God and of each other comes from each | unrecognized belief in specialness. For each demands the other bow to |
| Tx:25.45 | God is glad to have you look on him. He does not will your savior be | unrecognized by you. Nor does He will that he remain without the |
| Tx:27.42 | at all. And so unless the answer tells “of whom,” it will remain | unrecognized, unheard, and thus the question is preserved intact |
| Tx:29.52 | What is an idol? Do you think you know? For idols are | unrecognized as such and never seen for what they really are. That is |
| W1:107.1 | but the truth? And what are errors but illusions that remain | unrecognized for what they are? Where truth has entered, errors |
| W1:138.10 | is brought to light. Who can decide between the clearly seen and the | unrecognized? Yet who can fail to make a choice between alternatives |
| W1:163.1 | Death is a thought which takes on many forms, often | unrecognized. It may appear as sadness, fear, anxiety, or doubt; as |
| W1:185.9 | not be gone with every twist and turning of the road to reappear | unrecognized in forms which shift and change with every step you take. |

| Tx:31.63 | If you choose to see the body, you behold a world of separation, | unrelated things, and happenings that make no sense at all. This one |

unreliable (1) | ||
| Tx:22.10 | like a baby's. The sounds a baby makes and what he hears are highly | unreliable, meaning different things to him at different times. |
unremembered (11) | ||
| Tx:19.92 | the ego to keep what lies beyond the veil forever blotted out and | unremembered. Here is your promise never to allow union to call you |
| Tx:21.8 | long forgotten, and the circumstances in which you heard completely | unremembered. Not the whole song has stayed with you, but just a |
| Tx:26.16 | just a tiny sigh before they disappear, to be forever undone and | unremembered. What seemed once to be a special problem, a mistake |
| Tx:28.8 | you, when you would forget. It is not past because He let It not be | unremembered. It has never changed because there never was a time in |
| Tx:28.8 | absent from your mind, for it was not your Father's Will that He be | unremembered by His [only] Son. |
| Tx:28.11 | is quiet now, and what has come to take its place will not be wholly | unremembered afterwards. |
| Tx:28.13 | is not fear, but rather is the cause that fear was made to render | unremembered and undone. The stillness speaks in gentle sounds of |
| Tx:30.44 | means is that you are sometimes aware of them and sometimes not. An | unremembered thought is born again to you when it returns to your |
| Tx:30.63 | is looked upon before the Father is remembered. For He must be | unremembered till His Son has reached beyond forgiveness to the love |
| Tx:31.77 | those you knew a long while since, and those you will yet meet, the | unremembered and the not yet born. For God has given you His Son to |
| W1:164.3 | How easily are all your seeming sins forgot and all your sorrows | unremembered. On this day is grief laid by, for sights and sounds |
unresolved (5) | ||
| Tx:25.84 | to solve without His help is to decide it should remain unsettled, | unresolved, and lasting in its power of injustice and attack. No one |
| Tx:27.63 | by heavy clouds of complication which were made to keep the problem | unresolved? Without the clouds, the problem will emerge in all its |
| W1:24.4 | today's idea, followed by searching the mind with closed eyes for | unresolved situations about which you are currently concerned. The |
| W1:24.9 | covering the list of as many hoped-for goals as possible for each | unresolved situation that crosses your mind, say to yourself: |
| W1:26.6 | the idea for today, then closing your eyes and reviewing the | unresolved situations whose outcomes are causing you concern. The |

| Tx:6.59 | he were told, “Do not do this because it might hurt you and make you | unsafe, but if you do that you will escape from harm and be safe, and |
| Tx:14.18 | power to these strange ideas of safety? They are neither safe nor | unsafe. They do not protect; neither do they attack. They do nothing |
| Tx:30.50 | deceive him, broke no rules, nor mean his world is made chaotic and | unsafe. He was mistaken. He misunderstood what made him safe and |
| Tx:30.88 | not in line with what you really are. This is a state so seemingly | unsafe that fear must rise. Do not continue thus, my brothers. We |
| W1:135.6 | home is open to the thief of time, corruptible and crumbling, so | unsafe it must be guarded with your very life. |
| W2:FL.1 | again to the belief in sin, which made the world seem ugly and | unsafe, attacking and destroying, dangerous in all its ways, and |
unsatisfied (3) | ||
| Tx:15.4 | believe it. The goal of death, which it craves for you, leaves it | unsatisfied. No one who follows the ego's teaching is without the |
| W1:159.6 | most urgent need. There is no sickness not already healed, no lack | unsatisfied, no need unmet within this golden treasury of Christ. |
| W1:185.11 | no longer by denying to himself what is God's Will. Who can remain | unsatisfied who asks for what he has already? Who could be unanswered |

| Tx:10.3 | for His thought system is light. Remember the rays that are there | unseen. The more you approach the center of His thought system, the |
| Tx:27.33 | totality. Reality is ultimately known without a form, unpictured and | unseen. Forgiveness is not yet a power known as wholly free of |
| Tx:29.32 | deep within that nothing in this world but passes by, unnoticed and | unseen. The still infinity of endless peace surrounds you gently in |
| W1:87.2 | to grope about in darkness, fearful of shadows and afraid of things | unseen and unreal. Light shall be my guide today. I will follow it |
| W1:91.2 | light is crucial. While you remain in darkness, the miracle remains | unseen. Thus you are convinced it is not there. This follows from the |
| W1:158.6 | for here the journey ends. Experience, unlearned, untaught, | unseen, is merely there. This is beyond our goal, for it transcends |
| W1:158.9 | has power to overlook them all. In His forgiveness, they are gone. | Unseen by One, they merely disappear because a vision of the holiness |
| W1:158.11 | knowledge is reflected in a way so accurate its image shares its | unseen holiness; its likeness shines with its immortal love. We |

unselected (1) | ||
| W1:35.6 | A suitable | unselected list for applying the idea for today might be as follows: |
unselective (1) | ||
| Tx:28.3 | you have no needs which mean that something must be done. It is an | unselective memory, which is not used to interfere with truth. All |
unselectively (1) | ||
| W1:64.11 | keep your eyes open after reviewing the thoughts and look slowly and | unselectively about you, telling yourself: |
unseparated (4) | ||
| Tx:3.54 | the result of man's attempt to regard himself as both separated and | unseparated at the same time. It is impossible to undertake a |
| Tx:14.34 | what cannot be divided cannot cease. The holy meeting place of the | unseparated Father and His Son lies in the Holy Spirit and in you. |
| Tx:19.96 | For what attracts you from beyond the veil is also deep within you, | unseparated from it and completely one. |
| Tx:28.61 | aspect of salvation. You accept it wholly or accept it not. What is | unseparated must be joined. And what is joined cannot be separate. |
unsettled (2) | ||
| Tx:25.84 | for yourself to solve without His help is to decide it should remain | unsettled, unresolved, and lasting in its power of injustice and |
| W1:26.6 | imposition, fear, foreboding, or preoccupation. Any problem as yet | unsettled which tends to recur in your thoughts during the day is a |

| M:4.9 | The next stage is indeed a “period of | unsettling.” Now must the teacher of God understand that he did not |

| Tx:4.48 | existence the Soul offers you the knowledge of permanence and | unshakable being. No one who has experienced the revelation of this |
| Tx:21.87 | of happiness has no exceptions—no change of any kind. It is | unshakable as is the love of God for His creation. Sure in its vision |
unshaken (3) | ||
| Tx:2.17 | searching. Mental health is inner peace. It enables you to remain | unshaken by lack of love from without and capable through your own |
| W1:99.5 | Yet it operates in time because of your belief that time is real. | Unshaken does the Holy Spirit look on what you see—on sin and pain |
| W1:109.1 | We ask for rest today and quietness | unshaken by the world's appearances. We ask for peace and stillness |
unshared (5) | ||
| Tx:5.47 | ego makes, it keeps to itself, and so it is without strength. Its | unshared existence does not die; it was merely never born. Real birth |
| Tx:28.48 | of sin and suffering, [of] pain and loss, that makes them real. | Unshared, they are perceived as meaningless. The fear is gone from |
| W1:73.1 | God has all the power of creation in it. The ego's idle wishes are | unshared and therefore have no power at all. Its wishes are not idle |
| W1:156.3 | there must be holiness as well as life. No attribute of His remains | unshared by everything that lives. What lives is holy as Himself |
| W1:185.12 | could your request be limited to you alone? No gift of God can be | unshared. It is this attribute that sets the gifts of God apart from |
unsharing (1) | ||
| Tx:5.78 | is part of your thought, but because it is uncreative and therefore | unsharing, it will be reinterpreted entirely to release you from |
unshed (1) | ||
| W1:193.13 | And He would have all tears be wiped away with none remaining yet | unshed and none but waiting their appointed time to fall. For God has |
unsheltering (1) | ||
| Tx:4.18 | such a picture of them yourselves. The ego has built a shabby and | unsheltering home for you because it cannot build otherwise. Do not |
unsolvable (1) | ||
| Tx:17.64 | elsewhere is to keep it. For you remove yourself from it and make it | unsolvable. |
unsolved (5) | ||
| Tx:25.82 | Yet does the problem still remain | unsolved, for only justice can set up a state in which there is no |
| W1:79.4 | problems as many is the temptation to keep the problem of separation | unsolved. The world seems to present you with a vast number of |
| W1:79.5 | just as you think you have resolved the previous ones. Others remain | unsolved under a cloud of denial and rise to haunt you from time to |
| W1:79.5 | to haunt you from time to time, only to be hidden again but still | unsolved. |
| W1:138.6 | all decisions. If you could decide the rest, this one remains | unsolved. But when you solve this one, the others are resolved with |
unsought (1) | ||
| W1:136.8 | Sickness is a decision. It is not a thing that happens to you quite | unsought, which makes you weak and brings you suffering. It is a |
unsound (1) | ||
| W1:126.4 | Thus is forgiveness basically | unsound—a charitable whim, benevolent yet undeserved; a gift |
unspeakable (2) | ||

| Tx:19.47 | more erratic and unpredictable than before. Yet what could be more | unstable than a tightly-organized delusional system? Its seeming |
| W1:129.2 | go all thought of value here. The world you see is merciless indeed, | unstable, cruel, unconcerned with you, quick to avenge, and pitiless |
unstated (1) | ||
| Tx:28.57 | can suffer if he does not see himself attacked and losing by attack. | Unstated and unheard in consciousness is every pledge to sickness. |
unsteady (2) | ||
| W1:107.9 | happy note of certainty that has been born of truth. The shaky and | unsteady footsteps of illusion is not our approach today. We are as |

| Tx:28.53 | to cover it with vague, uncertain forms and changing shapes, forever | unsubstantial and unsure. Yet in the gap is nothing. And there are no |

| W1:153.19 | He remains beside us through the day and never leaves our weakness | unsupported by His strength. |

| W1:139.6 | the strange idea that it is possible to doubt yourself and be | unsure of what you really are. This is the depth of madness. Yet it |
| W1:163.3 | All things but death are seen to be | unsure, too quickly lost however hard to gain, uncertain in their |
| W1:185.10 | to you. You have been weak at times, uncertain in your purpose and | unsure of what you wanted, where to look for it, and where to turn |
| W1:186.12 | distorted image of yourself, confused, bewildered, inconsistent and | unsure of everything? Let not its voice direct you. Hear instead a |
| W2:256.1 | a way to where you are? Who would still be uncertain? Who could be | unsure of who he is? And who would yet remain asleep in heavy clouds |
| W2:257.1 | If I forget my goal, I can be but confused, | unsure of what I am and thus conflicted in my actions. No one can |
| W2:276.1 | us. Deny we were created in His Love, and we deny our Self, to be | unsure of who we are, of who our Father is, and for what purpose we |

| Tx:13.76 | place your pitiful appraisal of yourself in place of His calm and | unswerving value of His Son? Nothing can shake God's conviction of |
| Tx:25.64 | needs. Nor is it necessary that your faith in it be strong, | unswerving, and without attack from all beliefs opposed to it. You |
| M:4.22 | does not deviate. Being consistent, it is wholly honest. Being | unswerving, it is full of trust. Being based on fearlessness, it is |
untainted (1) | ||
| W1:188.6 | fly to the peace within. They know the way. For honest thoughts, | untainted by the dream of worldly things outside yourself, become the |
untarnished (1) | ||
| Tx:15.9 | its shadow reaching out into the future. Each instant is a clean, | untarnished birth, in which the Son of God emerges from the past into |
untaught (1) | ||
| W1:158.6 | reconciled, for here the journey ends. Experience, unlearned, | untaught, unseen, is merely there. This is beyond our goal, for it |
untenable (2) | ||
| Tx:4.6 | so that whatever the ego makes is incomplete and contradictory. This | untenable position is the result of the authority problem which, |
| M:7.2 | not love but fear and therefore hate. His position has thus become | untenable, for he is offering hate to one to whom he offered love. |
unterrified (1) | ||
| Tx:19.98 | No one can look upon the fear of God | unterrified unless he has accepted the Atonement and learned |
unthinkable (3) | ||
| Tx:4.80 | unwilling to adapt to any situation in which miracle-mindedness is | unthinkable. That state in itself is enough to demonstrate that the |
| Tx:14.59 | have taught yourselves how to imprison the Son of God, a lesson so | unthinkable that only the insane, in deepest sleep, could even dream |
| W1:168.2 | impossible, for hope would be forever satisfied; despair of any kind | unthinkable. His grace His answer is to all despair, for in it lies |
until (193) | ||
| Tx:1.55 | man under the Atonement principle, where his perception is healed. | Until this has occurred, revelation of the divine order is impossible. |
| Tx:1.90 | Until the “separation,” which is a better term than the “fall,” | |
| Tx:2.41 | as a completed plan does have a unique relationship to time. | Until the Atonement is finished, its various phases will proceed in |
| Tx:2.50 | to perfect comfort, which comes from a sense of perfect trust. | Until they achieve this, they waste themselves and their true |
| Tx:2.102 | are missing. That is why the conflict cannot ultimately be resolved | until all the parts of the Sonship have returned. Only then can the |
| Tx:2.104 | Confidence cannot develop fully | until mastery has been accomplished. We have already attempted to |
| Tx:2.109 | not. After this, their ability to choose can be directed reasonably. | Until this distinction is made, however, the vacillations between |
| Tx:3.8 | power of the miracle induces the right perception for healing. | Until this has occurred, healing cannot be understood. Forgiveness is |
| Tx:3.26 | Innocence is not a partial attribute. It is not a real defense | until it is total. When it is partial, it is characterized by the |

| Tx:3.35 | and this makes it possible for you to know him. However, it is not | until you recognize him that you can know him. While you ask |
| Tx:3.38 | deceives [and illusions are not pure]. Perception did not exist | until the separation had introduced degrees, aspects, and intervals. |
| Tx:3.42 | as he perceives himself. This is why he cannot escape from fear | until he knows that he did not and could not create himself. He can |
| Tx:3.44 | will-power. When it willed the separation, it willed to perceive. | Until then, it willed only to know. Afterwards it willed ambiguously, |
| Tx:3.77 | perceive correctly, you can only be glad that you cannot. But | until then, the belief that you can is the central foundation stone |
| Tx:4.14 | fallacy. Teachers must be patient and repeat their lessons | until they are learned. I am willing to do this because I have no |
| Tx:4.61 | Leave the sins of the ego to me. That is what Atonement is for. But | until you change your mind about those your ego has hurt, the |
| Tx:4.101 | has kept your kingdom for you, but He cannot share His joy with you | until you know it with your whole mind. Even revelation is not enough |
| Tx:4.101 | is not enough because it is communication from God. It is not enough | until it is shared. God does not need revelation returned to Him, |
| Tx:4.102 | in it. The truly helpful are God's miracle workers whom I direct | until we are all united in the joy of the Kingdom. I will direct you |
| Tx:5.12 | them with a way of thinking that could raise their perceptions | until they became so lofty that they could reach almost back to Him. |
| Tx:5.18 | Sons. This is the vocation of the mind. The mind had no calling | until the separation, because before that it had only being and would |

| Tx:5.25 | cannot lose it, but he can not know it. It is therefore lost to him | until he chooses right. The Holy Spirit is your Guide in choosing. He |
| Tx:5.55 | My part in the Atonement is not complete | until you join it and give it away. As you teach, so shall you learn. |
| Tx:5.56 | And of such is the Kingdom of Heaven. All the rest remains with you | until He has reinterpreted them in the light of the Kingdom, making |
| Tx:5.66 | is anything but ineffectual. Its effects will follow automatically | until the decision is changed. This is repeated here because you have |
| Tx:5.73 | ego always speaks first. Alternate interpretations were unnecessary | until the first one was made, and speaking itself was unnecessary |
| Tx:6.32 | of God. God created you to create. You cannot extend His Kingdom | until you know of its wholeness. |
| Tx:6.47 | and the ego is afraid of you. You cannot understand the conflict | until you fully understand one basic fact that the ego does not know. |
| Tx:6.73 | point, the equality of “having” and “being” is not yet perceived. | Until it is, “having” appears to be the opposite of “being.” |
| Tx:6.91 | and therefore does engender doubt. You cannot go beyond belief | until you believe fully. |
| Tx:7.73 | of yourself as long as perception lasts. And perception will last | until the Sonship knows itself as whole. |
| Tx:7.76 | for yourself and as yourself. You cannot know your own perfection | until you have honored all those who were created like you. |
| Tx:8.27 | of yourself and of Him Who sent me to you. You were in darkness | until God's Will was done completely by any part of the Sonship. When |
| Tx:8.32 | knowing that we are alike. If you want to be different, I will wait | until you change your mind. I can teach you, but only you can choose |
| Tx:8.55 | uniting, it becomes a beautiful lesson in communion, which has value | until communion is. This is God's way of making unlimited what you |
| Tx:8.78 | up false cases. Nor can anyone doubt your willingness to listen | until you will not to tolerate anything except truth. When you lay |
| Tx:9.34 | Wholeness is indivisible, but you cannot learn of your wholeness | until you see it everywhere. You can know yourself only as God knows |
| Tx:9.37 | dimension being “always.” This cannot mean anything to you, however, | until you remember God's open arms and finally know His open mind. |
| Tx:9.37 | them with you. You will never know that you are co-creator with God | until you learn that your brother is a co-creator with you. |
| Tx:9.57 | keeps your extensions safe within it. Yet you do not know them | until you return to them. You cannot replace the Kingdom, and you |
| Tx:9.59 | you. Time and eternity are both in your mind and will conflict | until you perceive time solely as a means to regain eternity. You |
| Tx:10.21 | You will never rest | until you know your function and fulfill it, for only in this can |
| Tx:10.30 | All your brothers must enter with you, for | until you have accepted them, you cannot enter. For you cannot |
| Tx:10.59 | the basis of experience, and experience leads to beliefs. It is not | until beliefs are fixed that perceptions stabilize. In effect, then, |
| Tx:10.61 | see by narrow little beliefs which are unworthy of God's Son. For | until Christ comes into His own, the Son of God will see himself as |
| Tx:10.65 | You will not find peace | until you have removed the nails from the hands of God's Son and |
| Tx:10.72 | Without this awareness, you have not met its conditions, and | until you do you will not know that it is yours already. You have |
| Tx:11.51 | learners and teachers. But it is not so yet and will not be so | until the whole learning situation as you have set it up is reversed. |
| Tx:11.74 | It will torment you while you live, but its hatred is not satisfied | until you die. For your destruction is the one end toward which it |
| Tx:11.88 | This world is a picture of the crucifixion of God's Son. And | until you realize that God's Son cannot be crucified, this is the |
| Tx:11.88 | this is the world you will see. Yet you will not realize this | until you accept the eternal fact that God's Son is not guilty. He |
| Tx:12.20 | to sanity could not obtain it in your right minds. You were at peace | until you asked for special favor. And God did not give it, for the |
| Tx:12.42 | you, and He would extend it. And He will not return unto the Father | until He has extended your perception even unto Him. And there |
| Tx:12.70 | yet He knows that everything you need is temporary and will but last | until you step aside from all your needs and learn that all of them |
| Tx:12.76 | We cannot sing redemption's hymn alone. My task is not completed | until I have lifted every voice with mine. And yet it is not mine, |
| Tx:13.5 | of the whole. Though every aspect is the whole, you cannot know this | until you see that every aspect is the same, perceived in the same |
| Tx:13.16 | to guilt in you, and you will see it there, for it is there | until it is undone. Guilt is always in your own mind, which has |
| Tx:13.30 | Seek not to love unlike Him, for there is no love apart from His. | Until you recognize that this is true, you will have no idea what |
| Tx:13.59 | which seem to bind them unto despair they do not see as nothing | until you bring the light to them. And then they see the chains have |
| Tx:13.87 | This state, and only this, must you attain with God beside you. For | until you do, you will still think that you are separate from Him. |
| Tx:14.6 | one teaches the message differently and learns it differently. Yet | until he teaches it and learns it, he will suffer the pain of dim |
| Tx:14.72 | by thinking they already know. Think not you understand anything | until you pass the test of perfect peace, for peace and understanding |
| Tx:15.1 | nothing more. God's Teacher cannot be satisfied with His teaching | until it constitutes all your learning. He has not fulfilled His |
| Tx:15.1 | all your learning. He has not fulfilled His teaching function | until you have become such a consistent learner that you learn only |
| Tx:15.8 | its teaching, is nothing but a teaching device for compounding guilt | until it becomes all-encompassing and demands vengeance forever. |
| Tx:15.20 | You will doubt | until you hear one witness whom you have wholly released through the |
| Tx:15.79 | for learning, for the Holy Spirit must not leave you as your Teacher | until the holy instant has extended far beyond time. For a teaching |
| Tx:16.30 | The extent of the split that lies in this you do not realize. And | until you do, the split will remain unrecognized and therefore |
| Tx:17.7 | which He thanks the Father for. He was created to see this for you | until you learn to see it for yourself. And all His teaching leads to |
| Tx:17.46 | is no course except to change the relationship to fit the goal. | Until this happy solution is seen and accepted as the only way out of |
| Tx:17.57 | is essential at this point to use them in each situation separately, | until you can more safely look beyond each situation in an |
| Tx:17.59 | at the outset, the situation just seems to happen and makes no sense | until it has already happened. Then you look back at it and try to |
| Tx:18.89 | ego's thought system. Its thinness and transparency are not apparent | until you see the light behind it. And then you see it as a fragile |
| Tx:18.98 | for your only purpose will be creating. Yet this you cannot know | until every perception has been cleansed and purified and finally |
| Tx:19.100 | if they share in it does it seem fearful, and you do share in it | until you look upon each other with perfect faith and love and |
| Tx:19.105 | of resurrection to which we come again; to which we will return | until redemption is accomplished and received. Think who your brother |
| Tx:21.83 | answered? Could it be necessary they be asked so often, if they had? | Until the last decision has been made, the answer is both “yes” and |
| Tx:22.2 | come together, each to complete himself and rob the other. They stay | until they think there's nothing left to steal and then move on. And |
| Tx:22.22 | waiting to choose between the joy of Heaven and the misery of hell. | Until you choose Heaven, you are in hell and misery. |
| Tx:24.52 | purpose the Holy Spirit sees in it and thus the only one it has. | Until you see the healing of the Son as all you wish to be |
| Tx:24.55 | in countless situations and through time which seems to have no end | until the truth be your decision. For eternity is not regained by |
| Tx:24.56 | end. What never was is not a part of you. Yet you will think it is | until you realize that it is not a part of him who stands beside you. |
| Tx:24.69 | it be kept in mind that all perception still is upside down | until its purpose has been understood. Perception does not seem to be |
| Tx:25.34 | world of light, the darkness they thought was there is pushed away | until it is but distant shadows, far away, not long to be remembered |
| Tx:25.41 | as you see him, so do you define the function he will have for you | until you see him differently and let him be what God appointed that |
| Tx:25.46 | he alone can fill—a part for only him. Nor is the plan complete | until he finds his special function and fulfills the part assigned to |
| Tx:25.58 | and all the sin he sees within the world offer him less and less— | until he comes to understand it cost him his sanity and stands |
| Tx:25.78 | to be released from all effects of sin? You cannot answer this | until you see all that the answer must entail. For if you answer |
| Tx:25.79 | the gift because you are reluctant to accept it. It is saved for you | until reluctance to receive it disappears and you are willing it be |
| Tx:25.79 | salvation as a gift from Him. Yet would His justice not be satisfied | until it is received by everyone. |
| Tx:25.82 | ends. It has been solved because it has been met with justice. | Until it has, it will recur because it has not yet been solved. The |
| Tx:25.86 | to let them be removed for you. And so they gather dust and grow | until they cover everything that you perceive and leave you fair to |
| Tx:26.10 | in a special form. It will recur and then recur again and yet again | until it has been answered for all time and will not rise again in |
| Tx:26.15 | rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the Holy Spirit be content | until it is received by everyone. For what you give to Him is |
| Tx:26.17 | God cannot be remembered | until justice is loved instead of feared. He cannot be unjust to |
| Tx:26.25 | to forgive. Forgiveness always rests upon the one who offers it | until he sees himself as needing it no more. And thus is he returned |
| Tx:26.42 | terror was replaced by love. And so you die each day to live again | until you cross the gap between past and present, which is not a gap |
| Tx:26.52 | two and all creation be subjected to the laws of two opposing powers | until God becomes impatient, splits the world apart, and relegates |
| Tx:26.63 | that you may be released. Each instant is the Son of God reborn, | until he chooses not to die again. In every wish to hurt, he chooses |
| Tx:26.74 | This is not reason, for it is unjust and clearly hints at punishment | until the time of liberation is at hand. Given a change of purpose |
| Tx:26.76 | which would maintain effects of present cause must be delayed | until a future time is merely a denial of the fact that consequence |
| Tx:27.22 | role, you lose the function of forgiveness. No one can forgive | until he learns correction is but to forgive and never to accuse. |
| Tx:27.26 | To this remaining half the Holy Spirit must represent the other half | until you recognize it is the other half. And this He does by giving |
| Tx:27.33 | It lets the Holy Spirit make exchange of pictures possible | until the time when aids are meaningless and learning done. No |
| Tx:27.87 | The Holy Spirit will repeat this one inclusive lesson of deliverance | until it has been learned, regardless of the form of suffering that |
| Tx:28.27 | to change the course of every step in the descent to separation, | until all the steps have been retraced, the ladder gone, and all the |
| Tx:28.29 | No mind is sick | until another mind agrees that they are separate. And thus it is |
| Tx:29.4 | is the symbol of a promise made to meet when you prefer and separate | until you both elect to meet again. And then your bodies seem to get |
| Tx:29.10 | a sacrifice or any loss, to find yourself in Heaven and in God? | Until you realize you give up nothing, until you understand there is |
| Tx:29.10 | in Heaven and in God? Until you realize you give up nothing, | until you understand there is no loss, you will have some regrets |
| Tx:30.1 | of thought to you as yet. So now we need to practice them awhile, | until they are the rules by which you live. We seek to make them |
| Tx:30.14 | way from what your version of the question asks will gain momentum | until you believe the day you want is one in which you get your |
| Tx:30.21 | to you that you will gain if what you have decided is not so. | Until this point is reached, you will believe your happiness depends |
| Tx:30.37 | recognized that you are free. But you will not forgive the world | until you have forgiven Him Who gave your will to you. For it is by |
| Tx:30.59 | is certain he will go beyond forgiveness, and he but remains | until it is made perfect in himself. He has no wish for anything but |
| Tx:30.69 | The Will of God forever lies in those whose hands are joined. | Until they joined, they thought He was their enemy. But when they |
| Tx:31.4 | continued, taking every step, however difficult, without complaint | until a world was built that suited you. And every lesson that makes |
| Tx:31.40 | you have power to make when you have seen the real alternatives. | Until that point is reached, you have no choice, and you can but |
| Tx:31.79 | the thing you wish to be. It will remain your concept of yourself | until the wish that fathered it no longer is held dear. But while you |
| Tx:31.82 | and unknown, beholding them with eyes unopened. And they cannot see | until he looks on them with seeing eyes and offers them forgiveness |
| W1:5.1 | of which will be perceived as different. This is not true. However, | until you learn that form does not matter, each form becomes a proper |
| W1:16.4 | thought which tends to elude the search. This is quite difficult | until you get used to it. You will find that it is still hard for you |
| W1:22.1 | as self defense. This becomes an increasingly vicious circle | until he is willing to change how he sees. Otherwise, thoughts of |
| W1:25.8 | Say this quite slowly, without shifting your eyes | until you have completed the statement. Then move on to the next |
| W1:34.7 | try to take several minutes and devote them to repeating the idea | until you feel some sense of relief. It will help you if you tell |
| W1:35.10 | fill the interval, but merely relax and repeat today's idea slowly | until something occurs to you. Although nothing that does occur |
| W1:42.3 | possible to the time you go to sleep. It is better, however, to wait | until you can sit quietly by yourself at a time when you feel ready |
| W1:76.6 | no laws except the laws of God. This needs repeating over and over | until you realize that it applies to everything that you have made in |
| W1:76.12 | which His laws keep limitless forever. We will repeat today's idea | until we have listened and understood there are no laws but God's. |
| W1:92.2 | or that you had the universe imprisoned in your hand, securely bound | until you let it go. Yet this is no more foolish than to believe the |
| W1:93.6 | is guaranteed by God. Over and over this must be repeated | until it is accepted. It is true. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by |

| W1:121.11 | a light somewhere within it, and then try to let this light extend | until it covers him and makes the picture beautiful and good. |
| W1:122.12 | Before the light you will receive today the world will fade | until it disappears, and you will see another world arise you have no |
| W1:123.6 | by sharing them with you, and so they grow in power and in strength | until they fill the world with gladness and with gratitude. |

| W1:125.1 | No peace is possible until His Word is heard around the world; | until your mind, in quiet listening, accepts the message which the |
| W1:125.5 | He has not waited | until you return your mind to Him to give His Word to you. He has not |
| W1:125.6 | to you. His Voice awaits your silence, for His Word cannot be heard | until your mind is quiet for a while and meaningless desires have |
| W1:128.2 | but this. For everything must serve the purpose you have given it | until you see a different purpose there. The only purpose worthy of |
| W1:129.9 | watch the lights that are not of this world light one by one | until where one begins, another ends, losing all meaning as they |

| W1:135.9 | a healthy, serviceable instrument through which the mind can operate | until its usefulness is over. Who would want to keep it when its |
| W1:135.12 | receives through listening to Wisdom that is not its own. It waits | until it has been taught what should be done and then proceeds to do |
| W1:135.13 | that the plan is made to solve. It must misuse the body in its plans | until it recognizes this is so. But when it has accepted this as |
| W1:135.21 | followers will join their light with yours, and it will be increased | until the world is lighted up with joy. And gladly will our brothers |
| W1:135.25 | kind of question which remains unanswered yet in need of answering | until the Answer comes to you at last. |
| W1:138.9 | Heaven is chosen consciously. The choice cannot be made | until alternatives are accurately seen and understood. All that is |
| W1:139.7 | And they will come again | until the time Atonement is accepted, and they learn it is impossible |
| W1:153.3 | it fast, wherein another circle bound it, and another in that one, | until escape no longer can be hoped for nor obtained. Attack, |
| W1:153.11 | your escape has been accomplished. For you will not see the light | until you offer it to all your brothers. As they take it from your |
| W1:154.8 | recognize them. No one can receive and understand he has received | until he gives. For in the giving is his own acceptance of what he |
| W1:154.12 | learn this lesson for today: we will not recognize what we receive | until we give it. You have heard this said a hundred ways, a hundred |
| W1:154.12 | a hundred times, and yet belief is lacking still. But this is sure— | until belief is given it, you will receive a thousand miracles and |
| W1:154.12 | the tiniest of blessings to His Son. What can this mean to you | until you have identified with him and with his own? |
| W1:160.10 | established. He has not forgotten you. But you will not remember Him | until you look on all as He does. Who denies his brother is denying |
| W1:169.1 | It is past learning yet the goal of learning, for grace cannot come | until the mind prepares itself for true acceptance. Grace becomes |
| W1:169.10 | work to do to play your part. The ending must remain obscure to you | until your part is done. It does not matter. For your part is still |
| W1:R5.8 | him out and now will lead you out with him. God's Son is crucified | until you walk along the road with me. |
| W1:182.7 | a world of alien thoughts. His patience has no limits. He will wait | until you hear His gentle Voice within you, calling you to let Him go |
| W1:186.3 | Today's idea may seem quite sobering | until you see its meaning. All it says is that your Father still |
| W1:187.3 | salvation for yourself. But you will not believe that this is done | until you see the miracles it brings to everyone you look upon. |
| W1:191.13 | in chains till you are free. They cannot see the mercy of the world | until you find it for yourself. They suffer pain until you have |
| W1:191.13 | mercy of the world until you find it for yourself. They suffer pain | until you have denied its hold on you. They die till you accept your |
| W1:196.6 | the fearful thought you can attack another and be free yourself. | Until this form is changed, there is no hope. Until you see that |
| W1:196.6 | and be free yourself. Until this form is changed, there is no hope. | Until you see that this, at least, must be entirely impossible, how |
| W1:196.7 | you can at least consider if you want to go along this painful path. | Until this shift has been accomplished, you cannot perceive that it |
| W1:196.11 | you, eager for your death, intent on plotting punishment for you | until the time when it can kill at last. Yet in this instant is the |
| W1:197.2 | home. Nor will you leave the prison house or claim your strength | until guilt and salvation are not seen as one, and freedom and |
| W2:WS.5 | time is almost over, and God's Son has but an instant more to wait | until his Father is remembered, dreams are done, eternity has shined |
| W2:WIW.5 | Let us not rest content | until the world has joined our changed perception. Let us not be |
| W2:WIW.5 | the world has joined our changed perception. Let us not be satisfied | until forgiveness has been made complete. And let us not attempt to |
| W2:317.1 | I have a special place to fill—a role for me alone. Salvation waits | until I take this part as what I choose to do. Until I make this |
| W2:317.1 | Salvation waits until I take this part as what I choose to do. | Until I make this choice, I am the slave of time and human destiny. |

| W2:328.1 | second place is first, for all things we perceive are upside-down | until we listen to the Voice of God. It seems that we will gain |

| M:4.7 | next obvious step is taken. The third step is rarely if ever begun | until the second is complete. Therefore, the period of overlap is apt |

| M:14.2 | Until forgiveness is complete, the world does have a purpose. It | |
| M:14.4 | world will end when its thought system has been completely reversed. | Until then, bits and pieces of its thinking will still seem sensible. |
| M:15.1 | flee forever from the truth? But the Final Judgment will not come | until it is no longer associated with fear. One day each one will |
| M:16.3 | depend on the teacher of God himself. He cannot claim that title | until he has gone through the workbook, since we are learning within |

| M:18.1 | a lasting nature—and only this is true correction—cannot be made | until the teacher of God has ceased to confuse interpretation with |
| M:22.7 | Both are equally meaningless. Yet this will not be understood | until God's teacher recognizes that they are the same mistake. Herein |

| Tx:2.56 | deny its existence. Those who do so are engaging in a particularly | unworthy form of denial. The term “unworthy” here implies simply that |
| Tx:3.12 | of the kind of thinking which His own words have clearly stated is | unworthy of man? |
| Tx:4.18 | Release yourselves and release others. Do not present a false and | unworthy picture of yourself to others, and do not accept such a |

| Tx:8.46 | neither yourself nor your function. You made only the decision to be | unworthy of both. Yet you could not make yourself unworthy, because |
| Tx:8.46 | the decision to be unworthy of both. Yet you could not make yourself | unworthy, because you are the treasure of God. What He values is |
| Tx:9.47 | you will not hear it. The truth about you is so lofty that nothing | unworthy of God is worthy of you. Choose, then, what you want in |
| Tx:9.89 | your creation established you as creators. What you have made is so | unworthy of you that you could hardly want it if you were willing to |
| Tx:10.57 | and you will remember Him. Nothing can demonstrate that His Son is | unworthy, for nothing can prove that a lie is true. What you see of |
| Tx:10.61 | do not try to limit what you see by narrow little beliefs which are | unworthy of God's Son. For until Christ comes into His own, the Son |
| Tx:11.74 | and react unfavorably to what you see, you have judged yourself | unworthy and have condemned yourself to death. The death penalty is |
| Tx:11.85 | is the root of attack. It is the judgment of one mind by another as | unworthy of love and deserving of punishment. But herein lies the |
| Tx:11.92 | you must be because He is with you. He has always undone everything | unworthy of the Son of God, for such was His mission, given Him by |
| Tx:12.39 | you are offering it to Him. And He will not return it, for it is | unworthy of you because it is unworthy of Him. Yet He would release |
| Tx:12.39 | And He will not return it, for it is unworthy of you because it is | unworthy of Him. Yet He would release you from it and set you free. |
| Tx:13.90 | There cannot, therefore, be anyone without His Holiness nor anyone | unworthy of His perfect Love. Fail not in your function of loving in |
| Tx:15.23 | and you will not have peace, for you will have judged yourself | unworthy of it. And whatever you offer as a substitute is much too |
| Tx:16.52 | which you demand. And hating it, you have made it little and | unworthy because you are afraid of it. |
| Tx:16.53 | has the truth become to you that unless it is weak and little, [and | unworthy of value,] you would not dare to look upon it. You think it |
| Tx:18.34 | be as you would make yourself? God did not create His dwelling-place | unworthy of Him. And if you believe He cannot enter where He wills to |
| Tx:18.35 | make it possible to teach you what they are. If you maintain you are | unworthy of learning this, you are interfering with the lesson by |
| Tx:19.9 | justified by its results. For by withholding faith, you see what is | unworthy of it and cannot look beyond the barrier to what is joined |
| Tx:19.12 | given you. Faithlessness looks upon the Son of God and judges him | unworthy of forgiveness. But through the eyes of faith, the Son of |
| Tx:22.13 | Be certain God did not entrust His Son to the | unworthy. Nothing but what is part of Him is worthy of being joined. |
| Tx:25.86 | bitterness, with vengeance justified and mercy lost, condemns you as | unworthy of forgiveness. The unforgiven have no mercy to bestow upon |
| Tx:27.26 | it and hates it still. This is your brother, focus of your hate, | unworthy to be part of you and thus outside yourself—the other half |
| W1:45.12 | holiness. Stand aside, however briefly, from all thoughts that are | unworthy of Him Whose host you are. And thank Him for the thoughts He |
| W1:64.3 | and only the fear of the ego that induces you to regard yourself as | unworthy of the task assigned to you by God Himself. |
| W1:126.3 | a sin there is no gain to you directly. You give charity to one | unworthy merely to point out that you are better, on a higher plane |
| W1:126.3 | He has not earned your charitable tolerance, which you bestow on one | unworthy of the gift because his sins have lowered him beneath a true |
| W1:137.6 | Yet think not healing is | unworthy of your function here. For anti-Christ becomes more powerful |
| W1:197.4 | It does not matter if another thinks your gifts | unworthy. In his mind there is a part that joins with yours in |

upheld (13) | ||

| Tx:20.31 | of God. And thus their freedom is established and maintained. It is | upheld through all temptation to imprison and to be imprisoned. It is |
| Tx:20.54 | certainty it will endure forever. Its firm foundation is eternally | upheld by truth, and love shines on it with the gentle smile and |
| Tx:21.58 | that you do not know but must belong to you? Faith and belief, | upheld by reason, cannot fail to lead to changed perception. And in |
| Tx:27.27 | intact, despite your separate views of what your function is. If He | upheld divided function, you were lost indeed. His inability to see |

| W1:76.11 | Who tells you this, and realize how foolish are the laws you thought | upheld the world you thought you saw. Then listen further. He will |
| W1:130.10 | eyes alone have ever seen before. And you will know God's strength | upheld as you made this choice. |
| W1:R5.1 | that we may go on again more certain, more sincere, with faith | upheld more surely. Our footsteps have not been unwavering, and |
| W2:I.5 | Now is the time of prophecy fulfilled. Now are all ancient promises | upheld and fully kept. No step remains for time to separate from its |
| W2:WIW.3 | real. They see in its illusions but a solid base where truth exists, | upheld apart from lies. Yet everything that they report is but |
uphold (13) | ||
| Tx:5.74 | because they are based on a complete fallacy which they were made to | uphold. Nothing the ego perceives is interpreted correctly. Not only |
| Tx:8.90 | cannot “threaten” anything except illusions, since reality can only | uphold truth. The very fact that the Will of God, which is what you |
| Tx:9.88 | at peace, because peace is His Will, and His laws are established to | uphold it. His are the laws of freedom, but yours are the laws of |
| Tx:15.18 | chaining your brothers to your egos in an attempt to support it and | uphold its weakness, do not perceive the Source of strength. In the |
| Tx:20.16 | adjustment is therefore a distortion and calls upon defenses to | uphold it against reality. Knowledge requires no adjustment and in |
| Tx:21.24 | What you desire you will see. And if its reality is false, you will | uphold it by not realizing all the adjustments you have introduced to |
| Tx:22.39 | choice. This is not so. A choice made with the power of Heaven to | uphold it cannot be undone. Your way is decided. There will be |
| Tx:23.44 | Yet it is certain the belief that salvation is impossible cannot | uphold a quiet, calm assurance it has come. Forgiveness cannot be |
| Tx:25.14 | Can it make sense to hold the fixed belief that there is reason to | uphold pursuit of what has always failed on grounds that it will |

| Tx:31.5 | and gave yourselves. It was not made to do the Will of God but to | uphold a wish that It could be opposed, and that a will apart from It |
| W1:R3.3 | poorly suited to your practicing from those which you establish to | uphold a camouflage for your unwillingness. |
| M:29.4 | is your teaching and the teaching of the world which was made to | uphold it. But the Teacher Who knows the truth has not forgotten it. |
upholdeth (1) | ||
| Tx:25.6 | gives the slightest witness unto anything the purpose in your mind | upholdeth not. Perception is a part of what it is your purpose to |
upholding (3) | ||
| Tx:10.48 | at which it is very ingenious. How can it preach separation without | upholding it through fear, and would you listen to it if you |
| Tx:23.55 | that offers less, yet could be wanted more? Who with the love of God | upholding him could find the choice of miracles or murder hard to |
| W1:77.4 | one and given to another and that in asking for your rights you are | upholding the rights of everyone. Miracles do not obey the laws of |
upholds (7) | ||
| Tx:23.38 | the laws of chaos are the laws of order as do the others. Each one | upholds these laws completely, offering a certain witness that these |
| Tx:24.40 | makes real, as surely as does will create. The power of a wish | upholds illusions as strongly as does love extend itself, except that |
| Tx:25.25 | shelter for the illusions which it would make real. Not one but it | upholds in its perception; not one but can be fully justified. |
| Tx:25.26 | that kept it still within the laws of God; not as the law itself | upholds the universe as God created it, but in some form adapted to |

| Tx:31.32 | innocent release in gratitude for their release. And what they see | upholds their freedom from imprisonment and death. Open your mind to |
| W1:127.5 | and to keep it dark and secret. There is not one principle the world | upholds but violates the truth of what love is, and what you are as |

| Tx:1.70 | natural result of choosing to follow Him. All shallow roots must be | uprooted because they are not deep enough to sustain you. The |

| Tx:18.97 | Your relationship has been | uprooted from the world of shadows, and its unholy purpose has been |
| Tx:19.33 | Heaven has smiled upon it, and the belief in sin has been | uprooted in its smile of love. You see it still because you do not |

| W1:5.1 | Apply it specifically to whatever you believe is the cause of your | upset, using the description of the feeling in whatever term seems |

| W1:5.2 | in any form, use both the name of the form in which you see the | upset and the cause which you ascribe to it. For example: |
| W1:5.4 | periods in which you first search your mind for “sources” of | upset in which you believe and forms of upset which you think result. |

| W1:5.10 | for today to each of them, using the name of both the source of the | upset as you perceive it and of the feelings as you experience it. |
| W1:6.1 | the preceding ones. Again, it is necessary to name both the form of | upset (anger, fear, worry, depression, and so on) and the perceived |
| W1:6.3 | Today's idea is useful for application to anything that seems to | upset you and can profitably be used throughout the day for that |
| W1:6.7 | I cannot keep this form of | upset and let the others go. For the purposes of these exercises, |
| W1:7.6 | It is the reason why you are never | upset for the reason you think. |
| W1:7.7 | It is the reason why you are | upset because you see something that is not there. |

| Tx:5.29 | statement, “My yoke is easy and my burden light” in this way: “Let | us join together, for my message is light.” |
| Tx:5.48 | do not help anyone. This distinction is wise though incomplete. Let | us make the distinction a little sharper now. Neurotic guilt feelings |
| Tx:5.54 | rejoices as you choose to hear it. The Holy Spirit atones in all of | us by undoing and thus lifts the burden you have placed in your mind. |

| Tx:6.4 | For teaching purposes, let | us consider the crucifixion again. We have not dwelt on it before |
| Tx:6.38 | because it is in alignment with the light of the world. Each of | us is the light of the world, and by joining our minds in this light, |
| Tx:8.38 | the Father for His Son and to our joy in uniting with His Will for | us. |

| Tx:8.41 | one direction for all minds, and the one He taught me is yours. Let | us not lose sight of His direction through illusions, for only |
| Tx:8.41 | direction can obscure the one for which God's Voice speaks in all of | us. Never accord the ego the power to interfere with the journey |
| Tx:8.42 | so they too can lay aside their weakness and add their strength to | us. God's welcome waits for us all, and He will welcome us as I am |

| Tx:9.20 | is undertaken by unhealed healers and is therefore of the ego. Let | us consider the unhealed healer more carefully now. By definition, he |
| Tx:10.6 | the universe? I and my Father are one with you, for you are part of | us. Do you really believe that part of God can be missing or lost to |
| Tx:10.39 | it, and since you realize you do not want it, you must be ready. Let | us be very calm in doing this, for we are merely looking honestly for |
| Tx:10.41 | and to look upon darkness through light must dispel it. Let | us begin this lesson in “ego dynamics” by understanding that the term |
| Tx:10.83 | for truth of any Son of God, and you have asked it of me. No one of | us but has the answer in him, to give to anyone who asks it of him. |
| Tx:11.18 | Let | us not save nightmares, for they are not fitting offerings for |
| Tx:11.18 | you, for the reality of nothingness cannot be frightening. Let | us not delay this, for your dream of hatred will not leave you |

| Tx:12.75 | we must find together. The Holy Spirit will teach you to awaken unto | us and to yourself. This is the only real need to be fulfilled in |
| Tx:13.8 | and as we grow in strength, the power of God's Son will move in | us, and we will leave no one untouched and no one left alone. And |
| Tx:13.32 | untouched by guilt and wholly loving, is bright within you. Let | us look upon him together and love him. For in our love of him is |
| Tx:13.34 | lowly, but together we shine with brightness so intense that none of | us alone can even think on it. Before the glorious radiance of the |
| Tx:13.47 | there alone their seeming clearness seems to be clearly seen. Let | us now turn away from them and follow the simple logic by which the |
| Tx:14.8 | We are all joined in the Atonement here, and nothing else can unite | us in this world. So will the world of separation slip away and full |
| Tx:14.13 | Blessed are you who teach with me. Our power comes not of | us but of our Father. In guiltlessness we know Him, as He knows us |
| Tx:14.13 | of us but of our Father. In guiltlessness we know Him, as He knows | us guiltless. I stand within the circle, calling you to peace. Teach |
| Tx:14.15 | no one out, for this is what he seeks, along with you. Come, let | us join him in the holy place of peace, which is for all of us, |
| Tx:14.15 | let us join him in the holy place of peace, which is for all of | us, united as one within the cause of peace. |

| Tx:15.63 | It is through | us that peace will come. Join me in the idea of peace, for in ideas |
| Tx:15.69 | of his release, and in the name of Him Who would release him, let | us look more closely at the relationships which the ego contrives and |
| Tx:15.80 | have cast aside but what you still desire with all your hearts. Let | us join together in making the holy instant all that there is by |
| Tx:15.103 | be healed completely that you may join with Him in healing, and let | us celebrate our release together by releasing everyone with us. |
| Tx:15.103 | and let us celebrate our release together by releasing everyone with | us. Leave nothing behind, for release is total, and when you have |
| Tx:15.103 | with our Father, and as powerful. Pain will be brought to | us and disappear in our presence, and without pain there can be no |
| Tx:15.108 | Christmas, for the time of Christ is meaningless apart from joy. Let | us join in celebrating peace by demanding no sacrifice of anyone, for |
| Tx:15.108 | For in the time of Christ, communication is restored, and He joins | us in the celebration of His Son's creation. |
| Tx:16.18 | place still greater faith in the disaster you have made. Today let | us resolve together to accept the joyful tidings that disaster is not |
| Tx:16.42 | you are complete forever. There is no veil the love of God in | us together cannot lift. The way to truth is open. Follow it with me. |
| Tx:16.52 | special relationship as a triumph over God, would you want it? Let | us not think of its fearful nature nor of the guilt it must entail |
| Tx:16.81 | Forgive | us our illusions, Father, and help us to accept our true relationship |
| Tx:16.81 | Forgive us our illusions, Father, and help | us to accept our true relationship with You in which there are no |
| Tx:16.81 | none can ever enter. Our holiness is Yours. What can there be in | us that needs forgiveness when Yours is perfect? The sleep of |
| Tx:16.81 | the unwillingness to remember Your forgiveness and Your Love. Let | us not wander into temptation, for the temptation of the Son of God |
| Tx:16.81 | for the temptation of the Son of God is not Your will. And let | us receive only what you have given and accept but this into the |
| Tx:17.42 | again the meaning of relationship and know it to be true. Let | us ascend in peace together to the Father by giving Him ascendance in |
| Tx:17.42 | the glory and keeping no illusions of where they are. They are in | us through His ascendance. What He has given is His. It shines in |
| Tx:18.10 | place in which you stand together. God is with you, my brothers. Let | us join in Him in peace and gratitude and accept His gift as our most |
| Tx:18.25 | in darkness, and when you are afraid, you have stepped back. Let | us then join quickly in an instant of light, and it will be enough to |
| Tx:18.26 | doubt that what you think it means is fearful. Yet what is that to | us who travel surely and very swiftly away from fear? |
| Tx:18.28 | you in your advance to truth. And where we go, we carry God with | us. |
| Tx:18.30 | that you experience is really past. Time has been readjusted to help | us do together what your separate pasts would hinder. You have gone |
| Tx:18.48 | have it without him, or he without me. Yet it is wholly possible for | us to share it now. And so I choose this instant as the one to offer |
| Tx:18.48 | one to offer to the Holy Spirit, that His blessing may descend on | us and keep us both in peace. |
| Tx:18.48 | to the Holy Spirit, that His blessing may descend on us and keep | us both in peace. |

| Tx:18.95 | is complete where He begins and where there is no end. It is not for | us to dwell on what cannot be attained. There is too much to learn. |
| Tx:19.57 | knowing its littleness? Or would I teach that bodies cannot keep | us apart? Mine was no greater value than yours; no better means for |
| Tx:19.64 | let peace through to bless the tired world! Can it be difficult for | us to walk past barriers together when you have joined the limitless? |
| Tx:19.68 | so are you and so am I. And He Who is our home is homeless with | us. Is this your will? Would you forever be a wanderer in search of |
| Tx:19.98 | Stand you here a while and tremble not. You will be ready. Let | us join together in a holy instant, here in this place where the |
| Tx:19.98 | place where the purpose given in a holy instant has led you. And let | us join in faith that He Who brought us here together will offer you |
| Tx:19.98 | instant has led you. And let us join in faith that He Who brought | us here together will offer you the innocence you need and that you |
| Tx:19.106 | would receive. It is almost Easter, the time of resurrection. Let | us give redemption to each other and share in it that we may rise as |
| Tx:20.1 | the celebration of victory and the acceptance of the truth. Let | us not spend this holy week brooding on the crucifixion of God's Son, |
| Tx:20.12 | Easter is the glad refrain the Son of God was never crucified. Let | us lift up our eyes together, not in fear, but faith. And there will |
| Tx:20.12 | eyes together, not in fear, but faith. And there will be no fear in | us, for in our vision will be no illusions—only a pathway to the |
| Tx:20.13 | the veil of fear, lighting each other's way. The holiness that leads | us is within us, as is our home. So will we find what we were meant |
| Tx:20.13 | lighting each other's way. The holiness that leads us is within | us, as is our home. So will we find what we were meant to find by Him |

| Tx:29.37 | and betterment, for here is not where changelessness is found. Let | us be glad indeed that this is so and seek not the eternal in this |
| Tx:29.48 | His place. Look not to idols. Do not seek outside yourself. Let | us forget the purpose of the world the past has given it. For |
| Tx:30.28 | you have need for practicing the rules for its undoing. Let | us, then, consider once again the very first of the decisions which |
| Tx:30.88 | use of symbols are we joined so that they mean the same to all of | us. Our common language lets us speak to all our brothers and to |
| Tx:30.88 | so that they mean the same to all of us. Our common language lets | us speak to all our brothers and to understand with them forgiveness |

| Tx:31.12 | Let | us be still an instant and forget all things we ever learned, all |
| Tx:31.12 | which we hold of what things mean and what their purpose is. Let | us remember not our own ideas of what the world is for. We do not |

| Tx:31.20 | want as we will let him be. We make no gains he does not make with | us, and we fall back if he does not advance. Take not his hand in |
| Tx:31.31 | Let | us be glad that you will see what you believe, and that it has been |
| Tx:31.51 | a re-translation of what seems to be the evidence on its behalf. Let | us consider then what proof there is that you are what your brother |
| Tx:31.52 | it? And who is deceived by all your goodness and attacks it so? Let | us forget the concept's foolishness and merely think of this—there |
| Tx:31.94 | Let | us be glad that we can walk the world and find so many chances to |

| W1:30.2 | trying to join with what we see, rather than keeping it apart from | us. That is the fundamental difference between vision and the way you |

| W1:45.4 | hold us back, and we will not let the beliefs of the world tell | us that what God would have us do is impossible. |
| W1:45.4 | not let the beliefs of the world tell us that what God would have | us do is impossible. |
| W1:45.5 | Instead, we will try to recognize that only what God would have | us do is possible. We will also try to understand that only what God |
| W1:45.5 | We will also try to understand that only what God would have | us do is what we want to do. And we will also try to remember that we |
| W1:45.5 | also try to remember that we cannot fail in doing what He would have | us do. There is every reason to feel confident that you will succeed |
| W1:57.1 | Today let | us review these ideas: |
| W1:62.4 | Let | us be glad to begin and end this day by practicing today's idea and |
| W1:64.5 | function, you are really choosing whether to be happy or not. Let | us remember this today. Let us remind ourselves of it in the morning |
| W1:64.5 | choosing whether to be happy or not. Let us remember this today. Let | us remind ourselves of it in the morning and again at night and all |
| W1:64.7 | Today, then, let | us practice with these thoughts: |
| W1:66.7 | first two thoughts are wrong that the conclusion could be false. Let | us, then, think about the premises for a while, as we are practicing. |
| W1:66.12 | in this conclusion, but in no other. For God Himself shares it with | us. |
| W1:66.13 | On one side stand all illusions. All truth stands on the other. Let | us try today to realize that only the truth is true. |
| W1:69.2 | Today let | us make another real attempt to reach the light in you. Before we |
| W1:69.2 | Before we undertake this in our more extended practice period, let | us devote several minutes in thinking about what we are trying to do. |
| W1:69.3 | Let | us begin our longer practice period today with the full realization |
| W1:69.3 | of all this and real determination to reach what is dearer to | us than all else. Salvation is our only need. There is no other |
| W1:69.3 | other function to fulfill. Learning salvation is our only goal. Let | us end the ancient search today by finding the light in us and |
| W1:69.3 | goal. Let us end the ancient search today by finding the light in | us and holding it up for everyone who searches with us to look upon |
| W1:69.3 | the light in us and holding it up for everyone who searches with | us to look upon and rejoice. |
| W1:70.6 | God wants | us to be healed, and we do not really want to be sick, because it |
| W1:70.6 | to be healed, and we do not really want to be sick, because it makes | us unhappy. Therefore, in accepting the idea for today, we are in |
| W1:70.6 | the idea for today, we are in agreement with God. He does not want | us to be sick. Neither do we. He wants us to be healed. So do we. |
| W1:70.6 | with God. He does not want us to be sick. Neither do we. He wants | us to be healed. So do we. |
| W1:71.8 | Let | us practice recognizing this certainty today. And let us rejoice that |
| W1:71.8 | Let us practice recognizing this certainty today. And let | us rejoice that there is an answer to what seems to be a conflict |
| W1:71.10 | Remembering this, let | us devote the remainder of the extended practice periods to asking |
| W1:71.10 | of the extended practice periods to asking God to reveal His plan to | us. Ask Him very specifically: |
| W1:72.3 | holding grievances is an attack on God's plan for salvation. But let | us consider the kinds of things which you are apt to hold grievances |
| W1:72.3 | says something we do not like; he does something that displeases | us, he “betrays” his hostile thoughts in his behavior. |
| W1:72.7 | the ego comes to save you. God made you a body. Very well. Let | us accept this and be glad. As a body, do not let yourself be |
| W1:72.10 | The light of truth is in | us, where it was placed by God. It is the body that is outside us and |
| W1:72.10 | is in us, where it was placed by God. It is the body that is outside | us and is not our concern. To be without a body is to be in our |
| W1:72.10 | is to be in our natural state. To recognize the light of truth in | us is to recognize ourselves as we are. To see our Self as separate |
| W1:72.11 | aware that God's plan for salvation has already been accomplished in | us. To achieve this goal, we must replace attack with acceptance. As |
| W1:72.11 | As long as we attack it, we cannot understand what God's plan for | us is. We are therefore attacking what we do not recognize. Now we |
| W1:72.11 | are going to try to lay judgment aside and ask what God's plan for | us is: |
| W1:73.9 | remember what it is your will to remember. No idle wishes can detain | us nor deceive us with an illusion of strength. Today let your will |
| W1:73.9 | is your will to remember. No idle wishes can detain us nor deceive | us with an illusion of strength. Today let your will be done. And end |
| W1:74.2 | rise to illusions. Without illusions, conflict is impossible. Let | us try to recognize this today and experience the peace this |
| W1:75.3 | remain to darken our sight and hide the world forgiveness offers | us. Today we will accept the new world as what we want to see. We |
| W1:75.4 | will be devoted to looking at the world which our forgiveness shows | us. This is what we want to see, and only this. Our single purpose |
| W1:75.4 | purpose makes our goal inevitable. Today the real world rises before | us in gladness, to be seen at last. Sight is given us, now that the |
| W1:75.4 | rises before us in gladness, to be seen at last. Sight is given | us, now that the light has come. |
| W1:76.7 | which we would hide. We realize instead it is a truth which keeps | us free forever. Magic imprisons, but the laws of God set free. The |
| W1:76.12 | Let | us today open God's channels to Him and let His Will extend through |
| W1:76.12 | us today open God's channels to Him and let His Will extend through | us to Him. Thus is creation endlessly increased. His Voice will speak |
| W1:76.12 | is creation endlessly increased. His Voice will speak of this to | us, as well as of the joys of Heaven which His laws keep limitless |
| W1:77.3 | you and can never be lost. We ask no more than what belongs to | us in truth. Today, however, we will also make sure that we will not |
| W1:78.6 | already. He will be the one of whom we ask God's Son be shown to | us. Through seeing him behind the grievances that we have held |
| W1:78.8 | Then let | us ask of Him Who knows this Son of God in his reality and truth that |
| W1:78.8 | see our savior shining in the light of true forgiveness given unto | us. We ask Him in the holy Name of God and of His Son, as holy as |
| W1:78.12 | will remember this throughout the day and take the role assigned to | us as part of God's salvation plan, and not our own. Temptation falls |
| W1:78.12 | own. Temptation falls away when we allow each one we meet to save | us and refuse to hide his light behind our grievances. To everyone |
| W1:80.8 | Let | us be determined not to collect grievances today. Let us be |
| W1:80.8 | Let us be determined not to collect grievances today. Let | us be determined to be free of problems that do not exist. The means |
| W1:83.1 | Today let | us review these ideas: |
| W1:92.10 | Let | us give 20 minutes twice today to join this meeting. Let yourself be |
| W1:92.10 | in the light, closing the body's eyes and asking truth to show | us how to find the meeting place of self and Self, where light and |
| W1:92.11 | for the time at night when we will meet again in hope and trust. Let | us repeat as often as we can the idea for today and recognize that we |
| W1:95.9 | He can be held back only by your unwillingness to let them go. Let | us therefore be determined, particularly for the next week or so, to |
| W1:95.10 | This tolerance for weakness will enable | us to overlook it, rather than give it power to delay our learning. |
| W1:95.21 | Self. I honor you because of what I am, and what He is, Who loves | us both as one. |
| W1:98.1 | not. In gladness we accept it as it is and take the part assigned to | us by God. |
| W1:98.4 | They will be with | us—all who took the stand we take today will gladly offer us all |
| W1:98.4 | be with us—all who took the stand we take today will gladly offer | us all that they learned and every gain they made. Those still |
| W1:98.4 | and every gain they made. Those still uncertain too will join with | us and, borrowing our certainty, will make it stronger still. While |
| W1:100.7 | in our five minute practice periods by feeling happiness arise in | us according to our Father's Will and ours. |
| W1:100.9 | Now let | us try to find that joy which proves to us and all the world God's |
| W1:100.9 | Now let us try to find that joy which proves to | us and all the world God's Will for us. It is your function that you |
| W1:100.9 | to find that joy which proves to us and all the world God's Will for | us. It is your function that you find it here and that you find it |
| W1:104.3 | These are the gifts which are within | us now, for they are timeless. And we need not wait to have them. |
| W1:104.3 | they are timeless. And we need not wait to have them. They belong to | us today. Therefore we will to have them now and know in choosing |
| W1:104.6 | that which is truly ours, as we ask to recognize what God has given | us. |
| W1:104.7 | and joy are welcome and to which we come to find what has been given | us by Him. We come in confidence today, aware that what belongs to us |
| W1:104.7 | us by Him. We come in confidence today, aware that what belongs to | us in truth is what He gives. And we would wish for nothing else, for |
| W1:104.7 | And we would wish for nothing else, for nothing else belongs to | us in truth. |
| W1:104.8 | that His Will is done already and that joy and peace belong to | us as His eternal gifts. We will not let ourselves lose sight of them |
| W1:105.1 | and joy are yours. Today we will accept them, knowing they belong to | us. And we will try to understand these gifts increase as we receive |
| W1:107.8 | not ask for what we do not have. We merely ask for what belongs to | us, that we may recognize it as our own. |
| W1:108.7 | to offer peace to everyone and see how quickly peace returns to | us. Light is tranquility, and in that peace is vision given us and we |
| W1:108.7 | to us. Light is tranquility, and in that peace is vision given | us and we can see. |
| W1:110.11 | day with thankful hearts and loving thoughts for all who meet with | us today, for it is thus that we remember Him. And we will say, that |
| W1:110.11 | we may be reminded of His Son, our holy Self, the Christ in each of | us: |
| W1:110.13 | Let | us declare this truth as often as we can. This is the Word of God |
| W1:122.6 | There is no plan but this for the salvation of the Son of God. Let | us today rejoice that this is so, for here we have an answer, clear |
| W1:122.12 | light, and we receive the gifts which have been held in store for | us since time began, kept waiting for today. Forgiveness offers |
| W1:123.1 | Today let | us be thankful. We have come to gentler pathways and to smoother |
| W1:123.4 | and walk with lightened footsteps as we go to do what is appointed | us to do. We do not go alone. And we give thanks that in our solitude |
| W1:123.4 | in our solitude a Friend has come to speak the saving Word of God to | us. |
| W1:124.1 | protection guaranteed in all we do, power and strength available to | us in all our undertakings. We can fail in nothing. Everything we |
| W1:124.1 | rejoicing, with the thought that God Himself goes everywhere with | us. |
| W1:124.2 | as we walk the world a little while. And those who come to follow | us will recognize the way because the light we carry stays behind, |
| W1:124.2 | way because the light we carry stays behind, yet still remains with | us as we walk on. |
| W1:124.3 | those who follow after and to those who went before or stayed with | us a while. And God, Who loves us with the equal love in which we |
| W1:124.3 | those who went before or stayed with us a while. And God, Who loves | us with the equal love in which we were created, smiles on us and |
| W1:124.3 | Who loves us with the equal love in which we were created, smiles on | us and offers us the happiness we gave. Today we will not doubt His |
| W1:124.3 | the equal love in which we were created, smiles on us and offers | us the happiness we gave. Today we will not doubt His Love for us nor |
| W1:124.3 | us the happiness we gave. Today we will not doubt His Love for | us nor question His protection and His care. |
| W1:124.7 | as we deny our separation from our Father, it is healed along with | us. |
| W1:126.2 | Let | us consider what you do believe in place of this idea. It seems to |
| W1:127.7 | Let | us together, then, be glad to give some time to God today and |
| W1:127.9 | salvation disappears before the timelessness of what you learn. Let | us give thanks today that we are spared a future like the past. Today |
| W1:127.9 | we are spared a future like the past. Today we leave the past behind | us, never more to be remembered. And we raise our eyes upon a |
| W1:127.10 | in hate to be love's enemy. Now are they all made free along with | us. Now are they all our brothers in God's Love. |
| W1:127.11 | remember them throughout the day because we cannot leave a part of | us outside our love if we would know our Self. At least three times |
| W1:130.7 | make a thousand meaningless distinctions, nor attempt to bring with | us a little part of unreality as we devote our minds to finding only |
| W1:131.9 | lose what the Eternal Will has given him to be his home forever? Let | us not try longer to impose an alien will upon God's single purpose. |
| W1:132.15 | there—no more than we. For we are in the home our Father set for | us along with them. And we who are as He created us would loose the |
| W1:132.15 | our Father set for us along with them. And we who are as He created | us would loose the world this day from every one of our illusions |
| W1:134.1 | Let | us review the meaning of “forgive,” for it is apt to be distorted and |
| W1:134.14 | lightening up the way for all our brothers, who will follow | us to the reality we share with them. |
| W1:134.15 | That this may be accomplished, let | us give a quarter of an hour twice today and spend it with the Guide |
| W1:134.15 | the Guide Who understands the meaning of forgiveness and was sent to | us to teach it. Let us ask of Him: |
| W1:134.15 | the meaning of forgiveness and was sent to us to teach it. Let | us ask of Him: |
| W1:135.5 | Let | us consider first what you defend. It must be something that is very |
| W1:135.22 | with present confidence, for this is part of what was planned for | us. We will be sure that everything we need is given us for our |
| W1:135.22 | was planned for us. We will be sure that everything we need is given | us for our accomplishment of this today. We make no plans for how it |
| W1:136.15 | we will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth to come to | us and set us free. |
| W1:136.15 | a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth to come to us and set | us free. |
| W1:136.16 | And truth will come, for it has never been apart from | us. It merely waits for just this invitation which we give today. We |
| W1:136.16 | which we give today. We introduce it with a healing prayer to help | us rise above defensiveness and let truth be as it has always been: |
| W1:138.7 | So we begin today considering the choice that time was made to help | us make. Such is its holy purpose, now transformed from the intent |
| W1:139.1 | For here we come to a decision to accept ourselves as God created | us. And what is choice except uncertainty of what we are? There is no |
| W1:139.8 | this a question or a statement which denies itself in statement? Let | us not allow our holy minds to occupy themselves with senseless |
| W1:139.8 | did not come to reinforce the madness which we once believed in. Let | us not forget the goal that we accepted. It is more than just our |
| W1:139.8 | we accept as what we are proclaims what everyone must be along with | us. |
| W1:139.12 | We have not lost the knowledge that God gave to | us when He created us like Him. We can remember it for everyone, for |
| W1:139.12 | We have not lost the knowledge that God gave to us when He created | us like Him. We can remember it for everyone, for in creation are all |
| W1:139.12 | as one and in our memory is the recall how dear our brothers are to | us in truth, how much a part of us is every mind, how faithful they |
| W1:139.12 | recall how dear our brothers are to us in truth, how much a part of | us is every mind, how faithful they have really been to us, and how |
| W1:139.12 | a part of us is every mind, how faithful they have really been to | us, and how our Father's Love contains us all. |
| W1:139.12 | they have really been to us, and how our Father's Love contains | us all. |
| W1:139.13 | today each hour, as we lay aside all thoughts that would distract | us from our holy aim. For several minutes let your mind be cleared of |
| W1:140.7 | Let | us not try today to seek to cure what cannot suffer sickness. Healing |
| W1:140.8 | which is in our minds because our Father placed it there for | us. It is not further from us than ourselves. It is as near to us as |
| W1:140.8 | because our Father placed it there for us. It is not further from | us than ourselves. It is as near to us as our own thoughts—so close |
| W1:140.8 | for us. It is not further from us than ourselves. It is as near to | us as our own thoughts—so close it is impossible to lose. We need |
| W1:140.9 | We will not be misled today by what appears to | us as sick. We go beyond appearances today and reach the source of |
| W1:140.10 | but this can cure. Today we hear a single Voice which speaks to | us of truth where all illusions end, and peace returns to the eternal |
| W1:140.11 | We waken hearing Him and let Him speak to | us five minutes as the day begins and end the day by listening again |
| W1:140.11 | and thus delay the time when we can hear our Father speak to | us. We hear Him now. We come to Him today. |
| W1:140.13 | Only salvation can be said to cure. Speak to | us, Father, that we may be healed. |
| W1:140.14 | And we will feel salvation cover | us with soft protection and with peace so deep that no illusion can |
| W1:140.14 | so deep that no illusion can disturb our minds nor offer proof to | us that it is real. This will we learn today. And we will say our |
| W1:140.14 | minute as the hour strikes to hear the answer to our prayer be given | us as we attend in silence and in joy. This is the day when healing |
| W1:140.14 | attend in silence and in joy. This is the day when healing comes to | us. This is the day when separation ends and we remember Who we |
| W1:R4.5 | Let | us begin our preparation with some understanding of the many forms in |
| W1:R4.6 | the lessons that we read and see the meaning which they offer | us. |
| W1:R4.11 | let them be the messages they are. We need no more than this to give | us happiness and rest and endless quiet, perfect certainty, and all |
| W1:R4.12 | that made the day a special time of blessing and of happiness for | us and through our faithfulness restored the world from darkness to |
| W1:151.16 | in gladness and in gratitude to Him Who has restored our sanity to | us. |
| W1:151.17 | salvation and deliverance. As we give thanks the world unites with | us and happily accepts our holy thoughts which Heaven has corrected |
| W1:151.17 | news that truth has no illusions and the peace of God, through | us, belongs to everyone. |
| W1:152.8 | Let | us today be truly humble and accept what we have made as what it is. |
| W1:152.10 | we lift our hearts in true humility instead to Him Who has created | us immaculate, like to Himself in power and in love. The power of |
| W1:152.14 | self-deceptions as we humbly ask our Self that He reveal Himself to | us. And He Who never left will come again to our awareness, grateful |
| W1:153.8 | not exchange for foolishness the endless joy our function offers | us. We would not let our happiness slip by because a senseless |
| W1:153.15 | better; 15 better still. And as distraction ceases to arise to turn | us from our purpose, we will find that half an hour is too short a |
| W1:153.16 | will forget. At other times the business of the world will close on | us, and we will be unable to withdraw a little while and turn our |
| W1:153.17 | and wait on Him and listen to His Voice and learn what He would have | us do the hour that is yet to come, while thanking Him for all the |
| W1:153.17 | that is yet to come, while thanking Him for all the gifts He gave | us in the one gone by. |
| W1:153.19 | our weakness disappear as we remember that His strength abides in | us. We will remind ourselves that He remains beside us through the |
| W1:153.19 | abides in us. We will remind ourselves that He remains beside | us through the day and never leaves our weakness unsupported by His |
| W1:153.20 | our certainty of purpose. We will pause a moment as He tells | us, “I am here.” Your practicing will now begin to take the |
| W1:154.1 | Let | us today be neither arrogant nor falsely humble. We have gone beyond |
| W1:154.1 | our part to judge our worth, nor can we know what role is best for | us; what we can do within a larger plan we cannot see in its |
| W1:154.10 | We will not seek to keep our minds apart from Him Who speaks for | us, for it is but our voice we hear as we attend Him. He alone can |
| W1:154.10 | it is but our voice we hear as we attend Him. He alone can speak to | us and for us, joining in One Voice the getting and the giving of |
| W1:154.10 | our voice we hear as we attend Him. He alone can speak to us and for | us, joining in One Voice the getting and the giving of God's Word, |
| W1:154.11 | giving Him what He would have that we may recognize His gifts to | us. He needs our voice that He may speak through us. He needs our |
| W1:154.11 | His gifts to us. He needs our voice that He may speak through | us. He needs our hands to hold His messages and carry them to those |
| W1:154.11 | and carry them to those whom He appoints. He needs our feet to bring | us where He wills, that those who wait in misery may be at last |
| W1:154.12 | Let | us but learn this lesson for today: we will not recognize what we |
| W1:154.15 | and realize these holy words are true. They are the message sent to | us today from our Creator. Now we demonstrate how they have changed |
| W1:155.11 | toward this as we progress along the way that truth points out to | us. This is our final journey, which we make for everyone. We must |
| W1:155.11 | for everyone. We must not lose our way. For as truth goes before | us, so it goes before our brothers who will follow us. |
| W1:155.11 | truth goes before us, so it goes before our brothers who will follow | us. |
| W1:155.12 | the holy Son of God? We walk to God. The truth that walks before | us now is one with Him and leads us to where He has always been. What |
| W1:155.12 | to God. The truth that walks before us now is one with Him and leads | us to where He has always been. What way but this could be a path |
| W1:157.2 | that sheds a light on all that we have learned already and prepares | us for what we have yet to learn. It brings us to the door where |
| W1:157.2 | already and prepares us for what we have yet to learn. It brings | us to the door where learning ceases, and we catch a glimpse of what |
| W1:157.2 | what lies past the highest reaches it can possibly attain. It leaves | us there an instant and we go beyond it, sure of our direction and |
| W1:158.3 | journey that is over. Yet it seems to have a future still unknown to | us. |
| W1:159.10 | can be made from death to life, from hopelessness to hope. Let | us an instant dream with Him. His dream awakens us to truth. His |
| W1:159.10 | to hope. Let us an instant dream with Him. His dream awakens | us to truth. His vision gives the means for a return to our unlost |
| W1:161.3 | the one we gave to them. Yet He can use but what we made to teach | us from a different point of view, so we can see a different use in |
| W1:161.5 | It seems to be the body that we feel limits our freedom, makes | us suffer, and at last puts out our life. Yet bodies are but symbols |
| W1:163.8 | therefore be illusion. This the stand we take today. And it is given | us to look past death and see the life beyond. |
| W1:163.9 | for death is not Your Will. And we abide where You have placed | us, in the Life we share with You and with all living things, to be |
| W1:164.7 | We will not judge today. We will receive but what is given | us from judgment made beyond the world. Our practicing today becomes |
| W1:164.8 | the world as we behold it in the light in which our Savior looks on | us and offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving vision, |
| W1:164.8 | light in which our Savior looks on us and offer it the freedom given | us through His forgiving vision, now our own. Open the curtain in |
| W1:165.7 | certainty of Him. We count on God and not upon ourselves to give | us certainty. And in His Name we practice as His Word directs we do. |
| W1:167.10 | Let | us today be children of the truth and not deny our holy heritage. Our |
| W1:167.12 | because we have one Source, a Source from Which perfection comes to | us, remaining always in the holy minds which He created perfect. As |
| W1:168.1 | God speaks to | us. Shall we not speak to Him? He is not distant. He makes no attempt |
| W1:168.1 | speak to Him? He is not distant. He makes no attempt to hide from | us. We try to hide from Him and suffer from deception. He remains |
| W1:168.3 | waiting to be acknowledged. This the gift by which God leans to | us and lifts us up, taking salvation's final step Himself. All steps |
| W1:168.3 | to be acknowledged. This the gift by which God leans to us and lifts | us up, taking salvation's final step Himself. All steps but this we |
| W1:168.3 | instructed by His Voice. But finally He comes Himself and takes | us in His arms and sweeps away the cobwebs of our sleep. His gift of |
| W1:168.5 | It is a new and holy day today, for we receive what has been given | us. Our faith lies in the Giver, not our own acceptance. We |
| W1:168.5 | error is unknown is yet the One Who answers our mistakes by giving | us the means to lay them down and rise to Him in gratitude and love. |
| W1:168.6 | And He descends to meet | us as we come to Him, for what He has prepared for us He gives and we |
| W1:168.6 | descends to meet us as we come to Him, for what He has prepared for | us He gives and we receive. Such is His Will because He loves His |
| W1:168.6 | His Son. To Him we pray today, returning but the words He gave to | us through His Own Voice, His Word, His Love: |
| W1:169.13 | can give. For this we can give in the grace that has been given | us. |
| W1:170.10 | Yet do not think that fear is the escape from fear. Let | us remember what the course has stressed about the obstacles to |
| W1:170.14 | Father, we are like You. No cruelty abides in | us for there is none in You. Your peace is ours. And we bless the |
| W1:170.14 | and make our choice for all our brothers, knowing they are one with | us. We bring them Your salvation as we have received it now. And we |
| W1:170.14 | as we have received it now. And we give thanks for them who render | us complete. In them we see Your glory, and in them we find our |
| W1:170.14 | in them we find our peace. Holy are we because Your holiness has set | us free. And we give thanks. Amen. |
| W1:R5.1 | surely. Our footsteps have not been unwavering, and doubts have made | us walk uncertainly and slowly on the road this course sets forth. |
| W1:R5.2 | let our doubts be quiet and our holy minds be still, and speak to | us. We have no words to give to You. We would but listen to Your Word |
| W1:R5.3 | do we bring our practicing to You. And if we stumble, You will raise | us up. If we forget the way, we count upon Your sure remembering. We |
| W1:R5.3 | sure remembering. We wander off, but You will not forget to call | us back. Quicken our footsteps now, that we may walk more certainly |
| W1:R5.3 | certainly and quickly unto You. And we accept the Word You offer | us to unify our practicing, as we review the thoughts that You have |
| W1:R5.3 | unify our practicing, as we review the thoughts that You have given | us. |
| W1:R5.7 | And it is This that waits to meet | us at the journey's ending. Every step we take brings us a little |
| W1:R5.7 | waits to meet us at the journey's ending. Every step we take brings | us a little nearer. This review will shorten time immeasurably if we |
| W1:R5.7 | and as we practice, it is This to which we are approaching. Let | us raise our hearts from dust to life as we remember This is promised |
| W1:R5.7 | raise our hearts from dust to life as we remember This is promised | us, and that this course was sent to open up the path of light to us, |
| W1:R5.7 | us, and that this course was sent to open up the path of light to | us, and teach us, step by step, how to return to the eternal Self we |
| W1:R5.7 | this course was sent to open up the path of light to us, and teach | us, step by step, how to return to the eternal Self we thought we |
| W1:R5.10 | as I am made whole, we go together to our ancient home, prepared for | us before time was and kept unchanged by time, immaculate and safe, |
| W1:181.3 | future goals, and what we saw an instant previous has no concern for | us within this interval of time wherein we practice changing our |
| W1:181.5 | look to past beliefs, and what we will believe will not intrude upon | us now. We enter in the time of practicing with one intent—to look |
| W1:181.5 | anger blocks our way in any form. And if a brother's sins occur to | us, our narrowed focus will restrict our sight and turn our eyes upon |
| W1:181.8 | And we will also use these thoughts to keep | us safe throughout the day. We do not seek for long range goals. As |
| W1:181.9 | are the eyes of Christ inevitably ours. And the love He feels for | us becomes our own as well. This will become the only thing we see |
| W1:183.12 | would experience this peace today. And in His Name it shall be given | us. |
| W1:184.14 | And through Its use, all foolish separations disappear which kept | us blind. And we are given strength to see beyond them. Now our sight |
| W1:184.15 | Name is our salvation and escape from what we made. Your Name unites | us in the Oneness which is our inheritance and peace. Amen. |
| W1:185.7 | Let | us today devote our practicing to recognizing that we really mean the |
| W1:185.7 | is no idle wish. These words do not request another dream be given | us. They do not ask for compromise nor try to make another bargain in |
| W1:185.14 | which still remains as God created it. With help like this beside | us, can we fail today as we request the peace of God be given us? |
| W1:185.14 | beside us, can we fail today as we request the peace of God be given | us? |
| W1:186.2 | Let | us not fight our function. We did not establish it. It is not our |
| W1:186.2 | We did not establish it. It is not our idea. The means are given | us by which it will be perfectly accomplished. All that we are asked |
| W1:186.2 | deny with self-deceiving arrogance that we are worthy. What is given | us to do we have the strength to do. Our minds are suited perfectly |
| W1:186.2 | to do. Our minds are suited perfectly to take the part assigned to | us by One Who knows us well. |
| W1:186.2 | suited perfectly to take the part assigned to us by One Who knows | us well. |
| W1:186.4 | we lay aside today that we may listen to God's Voice reveal to | us what He would have us do. We do not doubt our adequacy for the |
| W1:186.4 | that we may listen to God's Voice reveal to us what He would have | us do. We do not doubt our adequacy for the function He will offer |
| W1:186.4 | us do. We do not doubt our adequacy for the function He will offer | us. We will be certain only that He knows our strengths, our wisdom, |
| W1:186.4 | knows our strengths, our wisdom, and our holiness. And if He deems | us worthy, so we are. It is but arrogance that judges otherwise. |
| W1:186.8 | And so we find our peace. We will accept the function God has given | us, for all illusions rest upon the weird belief that we can make |
| W1:186.8 | as we experience a thousand shifts in mood, and our emotions raise | us high indeed or dash us to the ground in hopelessness. |
| W1:186.8 | shifts in mood, and our emotions raise us high indeed or dash | us to the ground in hopelessness. |
| W1:187.10 | one brother who is part of our One Self Whose innocence has joined | us all as one, we stand in blessedness and give as we receive. The |
| W1:187.11 | it to everything we see. For where we see it, it will be returned to | us in form of lilies we can lay upon our altar, making it a home for |
| W1:187.11 | upon our altar, making it a home for Innocence Itself, Who dwells in | us and offers us His holiness as ours. |
| W1:187.11 | making it a home for Innocence Itself, Who dwells in us and offers | us His holiness as ours. |
| W1:188.8 | We practice coming nearer to the light in | us today. We take our wandering thoughts and gently bring them back |
| W1:188.8 | to come home. We have betrayed them, ordering that they depart from | us. But now we call them back and wash them clean of strange desires |
| W1:188.9 | with them, and we acknowledge that the peace of God still shines in | us and from us to all living things that share our life. We will |
| W1:188.9 | and we acknowledge that the peace of God still shines in us and from | us to all living things that share our life. We will forgive them |
| W1:188.9 | them all, absolving all the world of what we thought it did to | us. For it is we who make the world as we would have it. Now we |
| W1:189.6 | Today we pass illusions as we seek to reach to what is true in | us and feel Its all-embracing tenderness, Its Love Which knows us |
| W1:189.6 | in us and feel Its all-embracing tenderness, Its Love Which knows | us perfect as Itself, Its sight which is the gift Its Love bestows on |
| W1:189.6 | perfect as Itself, Its sight which is the gift Its Love bestows on | us. We learn the way today. It is as sure as Love Itself, to Which it |
| W1:189.6 | the way today. It is as sure as Love Itself, to Which it carries | us. For its simplicity avoids the snares the foolish convolutions of |
| W1:189.10 | not know the way to You. But we have called, and You have answered | us. We will not interfere. Salvation's ways are not our own, for they |
| W1:189.10 | apart from You and cherish no beliefs of what we are or who created | us. Yours is the way that we would find and follow. And we ask but |
| W1:189.10 | And we ask but that Your Will, which is our own as well, be done in | us and in the world, that it becomes a part of Heaven now. Amen. |
| W1:193.15 | too long, and we would linger here no more. And as we practice, let | us think about all things we saved to settle by ourselves and kept |
| W1:193.15 | we saved to settle by ourselves and kept apart from healing. Let | us give them all to Him Who knows the way to look upon them so that |
| W1:193.15 | message; truth His teaching is. His are the lessons God would have | us learn. |
| W1:194.9 | in God's hands we rest untroubled, sure that only good can come to | us. If we forget, we will be gently reassured. If we accept an |
| W1:194.9 | we will appeal to Him Who guards our rest to make the choice for | us that leaves temptation far behind. No longer is the world our |
| W1:195.4 | if it is joined to love. We offer thanks to God our Father that in | us all things will find their freedom. It will never be that some are |
| W1:195.5 | the way of hatred and the path of death. All these go with you. Let | us not compare ourselves with them, for thus we split them off in our |
| W1:195.5 | awareness from the unity we share with them, as they must share with | us. |
| W1:195.6 | thanks for nothing and we fail to recognize the gifts of God to | us. |
| W1:195.7 | them to the peace that we would find, the way is opening at last to | us. An ancient door is swinging free again; a long forgotten Word |
| W1:195.9 | therefore to our bitterness and to a self-perception which regards | us in a place of merciless pursuit where we are badgered ceaselessly |
| W1:195.9 | badgered ceaselessly and pushed about without a thought or care for | us or for our future. Gratitude becomes the single thought we |
| W1:195.9 | we substitute for these insane perceptions. God has cared for | us and calls us Son. Can there be more than this? |
| W1:195.9 | for these insane perceptions. God has cared for us and calls | us Son. Can there be more than this? |
| W1:196.4 | Today's idea is one step we take in leading | us from bondage to the state of perfect freedom. Let us take this |
| W1:196.4 | take in leading us from bondage to the state of perfect freedom. Let | us take this step today that we may quickly go the way salvation |
| W1:196.4 | take this step today that we may quickly go the way salvation shows | us, taking every step in its appointed sequence as the mind |
| W1:198.15 | glad that we have come this far and recognize that He Who brought | us here will not forsake us now. For He would give to us the gift |
| W1:198.15 | this far and recognize that He Who brought us here will not forsake | us now. For He would give to us the gift that God has given us |
| W1:198.15 | He Who brought us here will not forsake us now. For He would give to | us the gift that God has given us through Him today. Now is it time |
| W1:198.15 | forsake us now. For He would give to us the gift that God has given | us through Him today. Now is it time for your deliverance. The time |
| W1:200.9 | Let | us not lose our way again today. We go to Heaven, and the path is |
| W1:200.11 | of God is ours, and only this will we accept and want. Peace be to | us today. For we have found a simple, happy way to leave the world of |
| W1:R6.2 | we carefully review the thoughts the Holy Spirit has bestowed on | us in our last 20 lessons. Each contains the whole curriculum if |
| W1:R6.6 | that we thought we knew and understood. For thus is freedom given | us from all we did not know and failed to understand. |
| W1:R6.11 | to be available to you each time you call to Him to help you. Let | us offer Him the whole review we now begin, and let us also not |
| W1:R6.11 | to help you. Let us offer Him the whole review we now begin, and let | us also not forget to Whom it has been given as we practice day by |
| W1:R6.11 | as we practice day by day, advancing toward the goal He set for | us, allowing Him to teach us how to go, and trusting Him completely |
| W1:R6.11 | day, advancing toward the goal He set for us, allowing Him to teach | us how to go, and trusting Him completely for the way each practice |
| W2:I.2 | spending time with Him each morning and at night, as long as makes | us happy. We will not consider time a matter of duration now. We use |
| W2:I.4 | Word upon our minds and hearts. And wait for Him to take the step to | us that He has told us, through His Voice, He would not fail to take |
| W2:I.4 | and hearts. And wait for Him to take the step to us that He has told | us, through His Voice, He would not fail to take when we invited Him. |
| W2:I.4 | not His faithfulness earned Him the invitation that He seeks to make | us happy? We will offer it, and it will be accepted. So our times |
| W2:I.4 | that His Voice suggests, and then we wait for Him to come to | us. |
| W2:I.6 | we give these holy times to You in gratitude to Him Who taught | us how to leave the world of sorrow in exchange for its replacement |
| W2:I.6 | to leave the world of sorrow in exchange for its replacement given | us by You. We look not backward now. We look ahead and fix our eyes |
| W2:I.6 | upon the journey's end. Accept these little gifts of thanks from | us, as through Christ's vision we behold a world beyond the one we |
| W2:I.7 | We have sought to find our way by following the Guide You sent to | us. We did not know the way, but You did not forget us. And we know |
| W2:I.7 | You sent to us. We did not know the way, but You did not forget | us. And we know that You will not forget us now. We ask but that Your |
| W2:I.7 | way, but You did not forget us. And we know that You will not forget | us now. We ask but that Your ancient promises be kept which are Your |
| W2:I.8 | and God, Who is its one Creator. We have found the way He chose for | us and made the choice to follow it as He would have us go. His hand |
| W2:I.8 | He chose for us and made the choice to follow it as He would have | us go. His hand has held us up. His thoughts have lit the darkness of |
| W2:I.8 | the choice to follow it as He would have us go. His hand has held | us up. His thoughts have lit the darkness of our minds. His Love has |
| W2:I.8 | thoughts have lit the darkness of our minds. His Love has called to | us unceasingly since time began. |
| W2:I.9 | more, and we who are God's Sons are safely home, where He would have | us be. |
| W2:I.10 | the way it started. Now it is complete. This year has brought | us to eternity. |
| W2:221.2 | let our thoughts be still and find His peace, to hear Him speak to | us of what we are, and to reveal Himself unto His Son. |
| W2:223.2 | Our Father, let | us see the face of Christ instead of our mistakes. For we who are |
| W2:WS.4 | Let | us come daily to this holy place and spend a while together. Here we |
| W2:WS.4 | which there is no sorrow, for it holds a hint of all the glory given | us by God. The grass is pushing through the soil, the trees are |
| W2:231.2 | Him is Heaven. This we seek. And only this is what it will be given | us to find. |
| W2:233.2 | Today we have one Guide to lead | us on. And as we walk together, we will give this day to Him with no |
| W2:233.2 | is His day. And so it is a day of countless gifts and mercies unto | us. |
| W2:234.2 | our safety and give thanks for all the gifts You have bestowed on | us, for all the loving help we have received, for Your eternal |
| W2:234.2 | for Your eternal patience, and the Word which You have given | us that we are saved. |
| W2:238.2 | And so again today we pause to think how much our Father loves | us. And how dear His Son, created by His Love, remains to Him Whose |
| W2:239.1 | the truth about ourselves today be hidden by a false humility. Let | us instead be thankful for the gifts our Father gave us. Can we see |
| W2:239.1 | humility. Let us instead be thankful for the gifts our Father gave | us. Can we see in those with whom He shares His glory any trace of |
| W2:239.2 | We thank You, Father, for the light that shines forever in | us. And we honor it because You share it with us. We are one, united |
| W2:239.2 | that shines forever in us. And we honor it because You share it with | us. We are one, united in this light, and one with You, at peace with |
| W2:240.1 | may appear. It witnesses but to your own illusions of yourself. Let | us not be deceived today. We are the Son of God. There is no fear in |
| W2:240.1 | us not be deceived today. We are the Son of God. There is no fear in | us, for we are each a part of Love Itself. |
| W2:240.2 | How foolish are our fears! Would You allow Your Son to suffer? Give | us faith today to recognize Your Son and set him free. Let us forgive |
| W2:240.2 | Give us faith today to recognize Your Son and set him free. Let | us forgive him in Your Name, that we may understand his holiness and |
| W2:WIW.5 | Let | us not rest content until the world has joined our changed |
| W2:WIW.5 | rest content until the world has joined our changed perception. Let | us not be satisfied until forgiveness has been made complete. And let |
| W2:WIW.5 | not be satisfied until forgiveness has been made complete. And let | us not attempt to change our function. We must save the world. For we |
| W2:241.2 | Heaven and his home. How glad are we to have our sanity restored to | us, and to remember that we all are one. |
| W2:242.2 | minds. We do not ask for anything that we may think we want. Give | us what You would have received by us. You know all our desires and |
| W2:242.2 | that we may think we want. Give us what You would have received by | us. You know all our desires and our needs. And You will give us |
| W2:242.2 | by us. You know all our desires and our needs. And You will give | us everything we want and that will help us find the way to You. |
| W2:242.2 | needs. And You will give us everything we want and that will help | us find the way to You. |
| W2:243.1 | do I free myself and what I look upon, to be in peace as God created | us. |
| W2:243.2 | each part contains Your memory, and truth must shine in all of | us as one. |
| W2:245.2 | received. And thus we come to hear the Voice of God, Who speaks to | us as we relate His Word, Whose Love we recognize because we share |
| W2:245.2 | Love we recognize because we share the Word that He has given unto | us. |
| W2:249.2 | violence and death. Now would we rest again in You, as You created | us. |
| W2:254.2 | now. And in the stillness, hallowed by His Love, God speaks to | us and tells us of our will, as we have chosen to remember Him. |
| W2:254.2 | in the stillness, hallowed by His Love, God speaks to us and tells | us of our will, as we have chosen to remember Him. |
| W2:256.2 | hear Your Voice and find the way Your sacred Word has pointed out to | us. |
| W2:257.1 | Nor can he function without deep distress and great depression. Let | us therefore be determined to remember what we want today that we may |
| W2:257.1 | and actions meaningfully and achieve only what God would have | us do today. |
| W2:257.2 | Father, forgiveness is Your chosen means for our salvation. Let | us not forget that we can have no will but Yours today. And thus our |
| W2:257.2 | must be Yours as well if we would reach the peace You will for | us. |
| W2:259.1 | that makes the goal of God seem unobtainable. What else could blind | us to the obvious and make the strange and the distorted seem more |
| W2:263.2 | And while we still remain outside the gate of Heaven, let | us look on all we see through holy vision and the eyes of Christ. Let |
| W2:263.2 | holy vision and the eyes of Christ. Let all appearances seem pure to | us that we may pass them by in innocence and walk together to our |
| W2:264.2 | prayer. Must we not join in what will save the world along with | us? |
| W2:266.2 | upon God's name and on our own, acknowledging our Self in each of | us, united in the holy Love of God. How many saviors God has given |
| W2:266.2 | us, united in the holy Love of God. How many saviors God has given | us! How can we lose the way to Him, when He has filled the world with |
| W2:266.2 | when He has filled the world with those who point to Him and given | us the sight to look on them? |
| W2:WIC.1 | is God's Son as He created Him. He is the Self we share, uniting | us with one another and with God as well. He is the Thought Which |
| W2:WIC.5 | the goal of the Atonement has been reached at last? So therefore let | us seek to find Christ's face and look on nothing else. As we behold |
| W2:272.2 | Today we pass illusions by. And if we hear temptation call to | us to stay and linger in a dream, we turn aside and ask ourselves if |
| W2:273.1 | how such a day can be achieved. If we give way to a disturbance, let | us learn how to dismiss it and return to peace. We need but tell our |
| W2:274.2 | A special blessing comes to | us today from Him Who is our Father. Give this day to Him and there |
| W2:275.1 | Let | us today attend the Voice of God, Which speaks an ancient lesson, no |
| W2:275.1 | learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For the Voice of God tells | us of things we cannot understand alone, nor learn apart. It is in |
| W2:276.1 | Son did not create with Him because in this His Son was born. Let | us accept His Fatherhood, and all is given us. Deny we were created |
| W2:276.1 | His Son was born. Let us accept His Fatherhood, and all is given | us. Deny we were created in His Love, and we deny our Self, to be |
| W2:276.1 | come. And yet we need but to acknowledge Him Who gave His Word to | us in our creation, to remember Him and so recall our Self. |
| W2:277.2 | Let | us not worship idols nor believe in any laws idolatry would make to |
| W2:283.2 | God our Father as our only Source and everything created part of | us. And so we offer blessing to all things, uniting lovingly with all |
| W2:283.2 | lovingly with all the world, which our forgiveness has made one with | us. |
| W2:286.2 | The stillness of today will give | us hope that we have found the way and traveled far along it to a |
| W2:286.2 | goal. Today we will not doubt the end which God Himself has promised | us. We trust in Him and in our Self, Who still is one with Him. |
| W2:WIRW.5 | of God. And as we look upon a world forgiven, it is He Who calls to | us and comes to take us home, reminding us of our Identity which our |
| W2:WIRW.5 | upon a world forgiven, it is He Who calls to us and comes to take | us home, reminding us of our Identity which our forgiveness has |
| W2:WIRW.5 | it is He Who calls to us and comes to take us home, reminding | us of our Identity which our forgiveness has restored to us. |
| W2:WIRW.5 | reminding us of our Identity which our forgiveness has restored to | us. |
| W2:291.1 | What loveliness we look upon today! What holiness we see surrounding | us! And it is given us to recognize it is a holiness in which we |
| W2:291.1 | upon today! What holiness we see surrounding us! And it is given | us to recognize it is a holiness in which we share; it is the |
| W2:292.1 | joy can be the final outcome found for everything. Yet it is up to | us when this is reached—how long we let an alien will appear to be |
| W2:292.2 | Father, for Your guarantee of only happy outcomes in the end. Help | us not interfere and so delay the happy endings You have promised us |
| W2:292.2 | us not interfere and so delay the happy endings You have promised | us for every problem that we can perceive, for every trial we think |
| W2:295.1 | must be one. As I am saved, the world is saved with me. For all of | us must be redeemed together. Fear appears in many different forms, |
| W2:296.2 | quick accomplishment. How gladly does the Holy Spirit come to rescue | us from hell when we allow His teaching to persuade the world through |
| W2:296.2 | from hell when we allow His teaching to persuade the world through | us to seek and find the easy path to God! |
| W2:300.1 | Yet this is also the idea that lets no false perception keep | us in its hold nor represent more than a passing cloud upon a sky |
| W2:WISC.5 | It needs your voice. And most of all it needs your willingness. Let | us rejoice that we can do God's Will and join together in its holy |
| W2:WISC.5 | join together in its holy light. Behold, the Son of God is one in | us, and we can reach our Father's Love through him. |
| W2:302.1 | Father, our eyes are opening at last. Your holy world awaits | us, as our sight is finally restored and we can see. We thought we |
| W2:302.1 | Now we see that darkness is our own imagining and light is there for | us to look upon. Christ's vision changes darkness into light, for |
| W2:302.2 | Our Love awaits | us as we go to Him and walks beside us, showing us the way. He fails |
| W2:302.2 | Our Love awaits us as we go to Him and walks beside | us, showing us the way. He fails in nothing. He the end we seek, and |
| W2:302.2 | Our Love awaits us as we go to Him and walks beside us, showing | us the way. He fails in nothing. He the end we seek, and He the means |
| W2:305.2 | Father, the peace of Christ is given | us because it is Your will that we be saved. Help us today but to |
| W2:305.2 | of Christ is given us because it is Your will that we be saved. Help | us today but to accept Your gift and judge it not. For it has come to |
| W2:305.2 | today but to accept Your gift and judge it not. For it has come to | us to save us from our judgment on ourselves. |
| W2:305.2 | to accept Your gift and judge it not. For it has come to us to save | us from our judgment on ourselves. |
| W2:306.2 | You, remembering we never went away, remembering Your holy gifts to | us. In gratitude and thankfulness, we come, with empty hands and open |
| W2:310.2 | We spend this day together, you and I. And all the world joins with | us in our song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who gave salvation to |
| W2:310.2 | us in our song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who gave salvation to | us, and Who set us free. We are restored to peace and holiness. There |
| W2:310.2 | of thankfulness and joy to Him Who gave salvation to us, and Who set | us free. We are restored to peace and holiness. There is no room in |
| W2:310.2 | us free. We are restored to peace and holiness. There is no room in | us for fear today, for we have welcomed love into our hearts. |
| W2:311.1 | because it cannot see totality and therefore judges falsely. Let | us not use it today but make a gift of it to Him Who has a different |
| W2:313.2 | Let | us today behold each other in the sight of Christ. How beautiful we |

| W2:WICR.5 | Our Father calls to | us. We hear His Voice, and we forgive creation in the name of its |
| W2:WICR.5 | holiness His own creation shares; Whose holiness is still a part of | us. |
| W2:321.2 | Today we answer for the world, which will be freed along with | us. How glad are we to find our freedom through the certain way our |
| W2:323.2 | and of images we worshiped falsely—truth returns to | us in wholeness and in joy. We are deceived no longer. Love has now |

| W2:326.2 | Let | us today behold earth disappear, at first transformed, and then, |
| W2:328.1 | suffering and loss, and death. This is not what our Father wills for | us, nor is there any second to His Will. To join with His is but to |
| W2:329.2 | other and our Source. We have no will apart from His, and all of | us are one because His Will is shared by all of us. Through it we |

| W2:330.1 | Self which God created cannot sin and therefore cannot suffer. Let | us choose today that He be our Identity and thus escape forever from |
| W2:330.1 | escape forever from all things the dream of fear appears to offer | us. |
| W2:331.2 | Forgiveness shows | us that God's Will is one and that we share it. Let us look upon the |
| W2:331.2 | Forgiveness shows us that God's Will is one and that we share it. Let | us look upon the holy sights forgiveness shows today that we may find |
| W2:332.2 | again today. Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has given | us the means to set it free. Father, we would release it now. For as |
| W2:332.2 | we would release it now. For as we offer freedom, it is given | us. And we would not remain as prisoners while You hold out our |

| W2:339.1 | He has asked for what will frighten him and bring him suffering. Let | us resolve today to ask for what we really want, and only this, that |
| W2:340.2 | thanks today. Our Father has redeemed His Son this day! Not one of | us but will be saved today. Not one who will remain in fear, and none |
| W2:341.1 | then are we, abiding in Your smile, with all Your Love bestowed upon | us, living one with You in brotherhood and Fatherhood complete, in |
| W2:341.1 | in sinlessness so perfect that the Lord of Sinlessness conceives | us as His Son, a universe of thought completing Him. |
| W2:341.2 | Let | us not then attack our sinlessness. For it contains the Word of God |
| W2:341.2 | not then attack our sinlessness. For it contains the Word of God to | us, and in its kind reflection we are saved. |
| W2:342.2 | to you to take you home with me. And as we go, the world goes with | us on the way to God. |
| W2:344.2 | How near we are to one another, as we go to God. How near is He to | us. How close the ending of the dream of sin and the redemption of |
| W2:348.2 | God's grace suffices | us in everything that He would have us do. And only that we choose to |
| W2:348.2 | God's grace suffices us in everything that He would have | us do. And only that we choose to be our will, as well as His. |
| W2:349.2 | Our Father knows our needs. He gives | us grace to meet them all. And so we trust in Him to send us miracles |
| W2:349.2 | He gives us grace to meet them all. And so we trust in Him to send | us miracles to bless the world and heal our minds as we return to Him. |
| W2:350.1 | What we forgive becomes a part of | us as we perceive ourselves. The Son of God incorporates all things |
| W2:350.2 | be grateful. For as we remember Him, His Son will be restored to | us in the Reality of Love. |
| W2:WAI.2 | can speak of this and teach it, too, if we exemplify the words in | us. |
| W2:WAI.3 | forgiveness is redeemed. And this, our gift, is therefore given | us. We look on everyone as brothers and perceive all things as kindly |
| W2:WAI.5 | speak for Him, and carrying His Word to everyone whom He has sent to | us, we learn that it is written on our hearts. And thus our minds are |
| W2:359.1 | to learn that we have made mistakes which have no real effects on | us. Sin is impossible, and on this fact forgiveness rests upon a |
| W2:359.1 | upon a certain base more solid than the shadow world we see. Help | us forgive, for we would be redeemed. Help us forgive, for we would |

| W2:FL.1 | practicing and only to remind us that we seek to go beyond them. Let | us turn to Him Who leads the way and makes our footsteps sure. To Him |
| W2:FL.2 | His is the only way to find the peace that God has given | us. It is His way that everyone must travel in the end, because it is |

| W2:FL.4 | earth, as it is given us to be His own completion in reality. So let | us not forget our goal is shared. For it is that remembrance which |

| W2:FL.4 | this to us? He is the way, the truth, and life that show the way to | us. In him resides salvation, offered us through our forgiveness |

| Tx:5.90 | that is not His Will, but you can choose to accept His care and | use the infinite power of His care for all those He created by it. |

| Tx:7.13 | himself as a mind can [he overcome this]. Then he is free to | use terms like “intramental” and “intermental” without seeing them as |
| Tx:7.16 | matters. God's law of Creation in perfect form does not involve the | use of truth to convince His Sons of truth. The extension of truth, |
| Tx:7.22 | it does not really learn at all. The Holy Spirit teaches you to | use what the ego has made to teach the opposite of what the ego has |
| Tx:7.24 | vigilance does not establish it as yours, but it does enable you to | use it always and in all ways. |

| Tx:7.39 | they need no elaboration here, but the Holy Spirit's decision to | use the body only for communication has such a direct connection with |
| Tx:7.70 | power of your mind, whose power is without limit of any kind. If you | use it to deny reality, reality is gone for you. Reality cannot be |
| Tx:7.83 | because that is how it lives, and every mind is life. The ego's | use of projection must be fully understood before its inevitable |

| Tx:8.55 | to understand the power of the mind that is in both of you. If you | use the body for this and only for this, you cannot use it for |
| Tx:8.55 | of you. If you use the body for this and only for this, you cannot | use it for attack. In the service of uniting, it becomes a beautiful |
| Tx:8.56 | or ugly, holy or savage, helpful or harmful, according to the | use to which it is put. And in the body of another you will see the |
| Tx:8.56 | use to which it is put. And in the body of another you will see the | use to which you have put yours. If the body becomes for you a means |
| Tx:8.56 | body becomes for you a means which you give to the Holy Spirit to | use on behalf of union of the Sonship, you will not see anything |

| Tx:8.61 | a temple to God, because His Voice abides in it by directing the | use to which it is put. |
| Tx:8.63 | will lose its usefulness if it is used for anything else. To | use a medium of communication as a medium of attack is an obvious |
| Tx:8.71 | as it always does. Regarding the body as an end, the ego has no real | use for it because it is not an end. You must have noticed an |
| Tx:8.79 | The Holy Spirit teaches you to | use your body only to reach your brothers, so He can teach His |
| Tx:8.79 | on anything. Health is the result of relinquishing all attempts to | use the body lovelessly. Health is the beginning of the proper |
| Tx:8.82 | you are sleeping under its guidance. Yet the Holy Spirit, too, has | use for sleep and can use dreams on behalf of waking if you will let |

| Tx:8.107 | Everyone who has ever tried to | use prayer to request something has experienced what appears to be |
| Tx:9.8 | and for this all learning was made. This is the Holy Spirit's good | use of an ability which you do not need, but which you have made. |
| Tx:9.8 | but which you have made. Give it to Him! You do not know how to | use it. He will teach you how to see yourself without condemnation by |
| Tx:9.13 | ideas which are eternal. Forgiveness that is learned of me does not | use fear to undo fear. Nor does it make real the unreal and then |
| Tx:9.56 | come of it? And if no good can come of it, the Holy Spirit cannot | use it. What He cannot transform to the Will of God does not exist at |
| Tx:9.86 | the willingness to judge unreality for what it is. This is the right | use of selective perception. To overlook nothingness is merely to |
| Tx:10.30 | you will be in eternity. Time cannot separate you from God if you | use it on behalf of the eternal. |
| Tx:10.80 | course is not sufficiently specific for you to understand it and | use it. Yet it has been very specific, and you have not done what it |
| Tx:10.87 | would save you from all condemnation. Accept His healing power and | use it for all He sends you, for He wills to heal the Son of God in |
| Tx:11.23 | you do not want. He knows what to do with it. You do not know how to | use what He knows. Whatever is revealed to Him that is not of God is |
| Tx:11.43 | weaker, you attempt to “equalize” the situation you have made. You | use attack to do so because you believe that attack was successful in |
| Tx:11.61 | only by its results. Its generalization is demonstrated as you | use it in more and more situations. You will recognize that you have |
| Tx:12.46 | You consider it “natural” to | use your past experience as the reference point from which to judge |
| Tx:12.48 | as well as imprison, depending on whose interpretation of it you | use. Past, present, and future are not continuous unless you force |
| Tx:12.48 | believe that reality is what you would have it be according to your | use for it is delusional. You would destroy time's continuity by |
| Tx:12.49 | will dawn on eyes that see. Your past was made in anger, and if you | use it to attack the present, you will not see the freedom that the |
| Tx:12.70 | the things that He supplies except to make certain that you will not | use them on behalf of lingering in time. He knows that you are not at |
| Tx:13.21 | pure. [If you displace your guilt upon them, the Holy Spirit cannot | use them.] For by preempting for your own ends what you should have |
| Tx:13.21 | for your own ends what you should have given to Him, He cannot | use them unto your release. No one who would unite in any way with |
| Tx:13.23 | with whom you find no real relationships at all. Can you expect to | use your brothers as a means to “solve” the past and still to see |
| Tx:13.23 | to see them as they really are? Salvation is not found by those who | use their brothers to resolve problems which are not there. You |
| Tx:13.24 | Determine, then, to be not as you were. | Use no relationship to hold you to the past, but with each one each |
| Tx:13.42 | is peace. You have it now. The Holy Spirit will teach you how to | use it and, by projecting it, to learn that it is in you. |
| Tx:13.88 | unforgiving mind. Atonement becomes real and visible to them that | use it. On earth this is your only function, and you must learn that |
| Tx:14.20 | not been broken but has been made obscure. All things you made have | use to Him for His most holy purpose. He knows you are not separate |
| Tx:14.20 | made in place of the power of creation, He would teach you how to | use on your behalf. You who made it to crucify yourselves must learn |
| Tx:14.58 | so much between it and your awareness of it that you cannot | use it. Everything you have taught yourselves has made your power |
| Tx:14.64 | everything you learned you do not want. Ask to be taught and do not | use your experiences to confirm what you have learned. When your |
| Tx:14.65 | means. And so I do not know how to respond to it. And I will not | use my own past learning as the light to guide me now. |
| Tx:14.68 | the Holy Spirit is limited. Thus would you make Him undependable and | use this fancied undependability as an excuse for keeping certain |
| Tx:14.69 | not see time as you do. And each miracle He offers you corrects your | use of time and makes it His. |
| Tx:15.7 | How bleak and despairing is the ego's | use of time! And how terrifying! For underneath its fanatical |
| Tx:15.8 | make the present useless. There is no escape from fear in the ego's | use of time. For time, according to its teaching, is nothing but a |
| Tx:15.10 | time at all to be what you are. Begin to practice the Holy Spirit's | use of time as a teaching aid to happiness and peace. Take this very |
| Tx:15.12 | to teach you how to be willing to give Him this than for Him to | use this tiny instant to offer you the whole of Heaven. In exchange |
| Tx:15.13 | to be released and to offer time to the Holy Spirit for His | use of it. How long is an instant? It is as short for your brother as |
| Tx:15.15 | Time is your friend if you leave it to the Holy Spirit to | use. He needs but very little to restore God's whole power to you. He |
| Tx:15.21 | in this practice, for it is the practice of the power of God in you. | Use it but for one instant, and you will never deny it again. Who can |
| Tx:15.38 | have accepted for finding magnitude in littleness. It is not there. | Use the holy instant only to recognize that you alone cannot know |
| Tx:15.46 | and look to them to meet your imagined needs, you are attempting to | use separation to save you. How, then, could guilt not enter? For |
| Tx:15.49 | have it serve no need but His. All the guilt in it arises from your | use of it. All the love from His. Do not, then, be afraid to let go |
| Tx:15.50 | for another has not been offered to the Holy Spirit for His | use. There is no substitute for love. If you would attempt to |
| Tx:15.51 | The ego's | use of relationships is so fragmented that it frequently goes even |
| Tx:15.56 | It is impossible to | use one relationship at the expense of another and not suffer guilt. |
| Tx:15.79 | far beyond time. For a teaching assignment such as His, He must | use everything in this world for your release. He must side with |
| Tx:15.87 | is given you. But to see this, it is necessary to give up every | use the ego has for the body and to accept the fact that the ego has |
| Tx:15.91 | be as free as God's. As you let the Holy Spirit teach you how to | use the body only for purposes of communication and renounce its use |
| Tx:15.91 | to use the body only for purposes of communication and renounce its | use for separation and attack which the ego sees in it, you will |
| Tx:15.92 | anything in eternity. But here it is the Holy Spirit's function to | use them both, though not as the ego uses them. This is the season |
| Tx:15.111 | part of myself. I know that you will be released, unless I want to | use you to imprison myself. In the name of my freedom I will your |
| Tx:16.1 | to empathize is very useful to the Holy Spirit, provided you let Him | use it in His way. [His way is very different.] He does not |
| Tx:16.3 | would share, for there is nothing there that you would keep. Do not | use empathy to make the past real and so perpetuate it. Step gently |
| Tx:16.5 | what it is. You will learn His interpretation of it if you let Him | use your capacity for strength and not for weakness. He will not |
| Tx:16.5 | Be tempted not in this, and yield not to the ego's triumphant | use of empathy for its glory. |
| Tx:16.13 | joining as the Holy Spirit bids you and have offered it to Him to | use as He knows how, His natural perception of your gift enables Him |
| Tx:16.13 | perception of your gift enables Him to understand it and you to | use His understanding on your behalf. It is impossible to convince |
| Tx:16.33 | who select certain ones as partners in any aspect of living and | use them for any purpose which they would not share with others, are |
| Tx:16.65 | abruptly lifted up and hurled into reality. Time is kind, and if you | use it for reality, it will keep gentle pace with you in your |
| Tx:17.2 | faithful to two masters who ask of you conflicting things. What you | use in fantasy, you deny to truth. Yet what you give to truth to use |
| Tx:17.2 | you use in fantasy, you deny to truth. Yet what you give to truth to | use for you is safe from fantasy. |
| Tx:17.44 | the first result of offering the relationship to the Holy Spirit to | use for His purposes. |
| Tx:17.54 | instant, but you have established a condition in which you cannot | use it. As a result, you do not realize that it is with you still. |
| Tx:17.56 | each other, you will also accept the effects of the holy instant and | use them to correct all your mistakes and free you from their |
| Tx:17.57 | universal application. Therefore it is essential at this point to | use them in each situation separately, until you can more safely look |
| Tx:17.68 | your relationship. See it as something else, and you are faithless. | Use not your faithlessness. Let it enter and look upon it calmly, but |

| Tx:17.73 | loneliness because the truth has come. Its call for faith is strong. | Use not your faithlessness against it, for it calls you to salvation |
| Tx:17.76 | unused. And then the power of the Holy Spirit's purpose is free to | use instead. This power instantly transforms all situations into one |
| Tx:17.78 | did this to him. Think carefully before you let yourself | use faithlessness against him. For he is risen, and you have accepted |

| Tx:18.52 | The body was not made by love. Yet love does not condemn it and can | use it lovingly, respecting what the Son of God has made and using it |
| Tx:18.54 | It is insane to | use the body as the scapegoat for guilt, directing its attack and |
| Tx:18.68 | means this course is using to save you time. You are not making | use of the course if you insist on using means which have served |
| Tx:18.70 | which you are sent. For from this center will you be directed how to | use the body sinlessly. It is this center, from which the body is |
| Tx:19.3 | on how the mind perceives it and the purpose which the mind would | use it for. And it is obvious that a segment of the mind can see |
| Tx:19.10 | the gift of freedom from the past, which you received. You do not | use anything your brother has done before to condemn him now. You |
| Tx:19.68 | He gives must be extended if you would have its limitless power and | use it for the Son of God's release. It is not this you would be rid |

| Tx:20.5 | the trinkets made to hang upon the body or to cover it or for its | use. See all the useless things made for its eyes to see. Think on |
| Tx:20.10 | eyes upon each other. You have forgiven me. And yet I cannot | use your gift of lilies while you see them not. Nor can you use what |
| Tx:20.10 | I cannot use your gift of lilies while you see them not. Nor can you | use what I have given unless you share it. The Holy Spirit's vision |
| Tx:20.41 | Your brother's body is as little | use to you as it is to him. When it is used only as the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:20.41 | not the body to communicate. The sight that sees the body has no | use which serves the purpose of a holy relationship. And while you |
| Tx:21.34 | The Holy Spirit has a | use for all the means for sin by which you sought to find it. But as |
| Tx:21.34 | His purpose lies in the opposite direction. He sees the means you | use but not the purpose for which you made them. He would not take |
| Tx:21.38 | no more could the body. The intention is in the mind, which tries to | use the body to carry out the means for sin in which the mind |

| Tx:21.57 | both at once. Reason is alien to insanity, and those who | use it have gained a means which cannot be applied to sin. Knowledge |

| Tx:23.2 | this war against yourself! You will believe that everything you | use for sin can hurt you and become your enemy. And you will fight |
| Tx:24.13 | can detract from his omnipotence yet share his power? And who can | use him as the gauge of littleness and be released from limits? You |
| Tx:24.52 | appearances, you will not know the Father nor yourself. For you will | use the world for what is not its purpose and will not escape its |
| Tx:24.72 | by your choice. And it is given you to make a different choice and | use perception for a different purpose. And what you see will serve |
| Tx:25.10 | and does unite all things together must be its Teacher. Yet must It | use the language which this mind can understand in the condition in |
| Tx:25.10 | understand in the condition in which it thinks it is. And It must | use all learning to transfer illusions to the truth, taking all false |
| Tx:25.46 | Such is the Holy Spirit's kind perception of specialness—His | use of what you made, to heal instead of harm. To each He gives a |
| Tx:25.63 | The Holy Spirit can | use all that you give to Him for your salvation. But He cannot use |
| Tx:25.63 | can use all that you give to Him for your salvation. But He cannot | use what you withhold, for He cannot take it from you without your |
| Tx:26.65 | To | use the power God has given you as He would have it used is natural. |
| Tx:26.65 | is natural. It is not arrogant to be as He created you or to make | use of what He gave to answer all His Son's mistakes and set him |
| Tx:27.33 | when aids are meaningless and learning done. No learning aid has | use which can extend beyond the goal of learning. When its aim has |
| Tx:27.33 | it is functionless. Yet in the learning interval it has a | use which now you fear, but yet will love. |
| Tx:27.56 | within itself, holds all your memories and all your hopes. You | use its eyes to see, its ears to hear, and let it tell you what it is |
| Tx:27.56 | feels. It does not know. It tells you but the names you gave it to | use when you call forth the witnesses to its reality. You cannot |
| Tx:28.3 | made. They are but skills without an application. They await their | use. They have no dedication and no aim. |
| Tx:28.4 | The Holy Spirit can indeed make | use of memory, for God Himself is there. Yet this is not a memory of |
| Tx:28.5 | The Holy Spirit's | use of memory is quite apart from time. He does not seek to use it as |
| Tx:28.5 | Spirit's use of memory is quite apart from time. He does not seek to | use it as a means to keep the past, but rather as a way to let it go. |
| Tx:28.6 | Time neither takes away nor can restore. And yet you make strange | use of it, as if the past had caused the present, which is but a |
| Tx:28.6 | if its cause is past. Only the past is held in memory as you make | use of it, and so it is a way to hold the past against the now. |
| Tx:29.37 | Such is the core of fear in every dream that has been kept apart from | use by Him Who sees a different function for a dream. When dreams are |
| Tx:29.39 | that the things of time may disappear because they have no | use. |
| Tx:29.41 | does not aim at keeping time but at its ending when it has no | use. Its purpose ended; it is gone. And where it once held seeming |
| Tx:30.88 | continue thus, my brothers. We have one Interpreter. And through His | use of symbols are we joined so that they mean the same to all of us. |
| Tx:31.33 | the narrow band from birth to death a little time is given you to | use for you alone, a time when everyone conflicts with you, but you |
| Tx:31.37 | he sees a choice where there is none, what power of decision can he | use? The great release of power must begin with learning where it |
| Tx:31.37 | release of power must begin with learning where it really has a | use. And what decision has power if it be applied in situations |
| Tx:31.68 | Learning is change. Salvation does not seek to | use a means as yet too alien to your thinking to be helpful nor to |
| Tx:31.73 | may offer peace to have it yours. Alternatives are in your mind to | use, and you can see yourself another way. Would you not rather look |
| W1:I.5 | asked to judge them nor even to believe them. You are asked only to | use them. It is their use which will give them meaning to you and |
| W1:I.5 | even to believe them. You are asked only to use them. It is their | use which will give them meaning to you and show you they are true. |
| W1:I.5 | the exercises contain. Whatever your reactions to the ideas may be, | use them. Nothing more than this is required. |
| W1:1.5 | to anything you see. As you practice applying the idea for the day, | use it totally indiscriminately. Do not attempt to apply it to |
| W1:3.1 | meaning for you. Try to lay such feelings aside, and merely | use these things exactly as you would anything else. |
| W1:4.1 | the idea to them. If you are already aware of unhappy thoughts, | use them as subjects for the idea. Do not, however, select only the |
| W1:4.2 | today's idea, the usual specificity is required. Do not be afraid to | use “good” thoughts as well as “bad.” None of them represents your |
| W1:4.5 | You can also | use the idea for a particular thought which you recognize as harmful. |
| W1:5.2 | for today for a specific perceived cause of an upset in any form, | use both the name of the form in which you see the upset and the |
| W1:12.5 | a “good world,” or a “satisfying world.” If such terms occur to you, | use them along with the rest. You may not yet understand why these |
| W1:14.6 | In each case, name the “disaster” quite specifically. Do not | use general terms. For example, do not say, “God did not create |
| W1:16.7 | As usual, | use today's idea whenever you are aware of a particular thought which |
| W1:26.6 | during the day is a suitable subject. You will not be able to | use very many for any one practice period, because a longer time than |
| W1:26.11 | or six distressing possibilities available for each situation you | use and quite possibly more. It is much more helpful to cover a few |
| W1:28.6 | You will be making this same request of each subject which you | use in the practice periods. And you are making a commitment to each |
| W1:30.2 | Today we are trying to | use the new kind of projection. We are not attempting to get rid of |
| W1:31.1 | without and the world you see within. In applying the idea, we will | use a form of practice which will be used more and more, with changes |
| W1:31.5 | The idea for today is a particularly useful one to | use as a response to any form of temptation. It is a declaration that |
| W1:34.7 | generalized adverse emotions, such as depression, anxiety, or worry, | use the idea in its original form. If you find you need more than one |
| W1:35.3 | and it describes you as you must really be in truth. We will | use a somewhat different kind of application for today's idea because |
| W1:35.8 | you feel are applicable to your reactions to that situation, and | use them in applying today's idea. After you have named each one, add: |
| W1:37.8 | you see around you and to those who are in your thoughts; or you may | use any combination of these two phases of application which you |
| W1:37.9 | to anyone you meet, using his name as you do so. It is essential to | use the idea if anyone seems to cause an adverse reaction in you. |
| W1:38.4 | situation specifically and also the name of the person concerned. | Use this form in applying the idea for today: |
| W1:38.9 | you or someone else arises or comes to mind. In that event, | use the more specific form of application. |
| W1:39.11 | itself in varying the method of applying it. However you elect to | use it, the idea should be stated so that its meaning remains that |
| W1:41.8 | Throughout the day, | use today's idea often, repeating it very slowly and preferably with |
| W1:43.15 | those which distress you in any way. For this kind of application, | use this form: |
| W1:44.3 | are going to attempt to reach that light. For this purpose, we will | use a form of practice which has been suggested before and which we |
| W1:44.4 | by with little or no sense of strain. The form of exercise we will | use today is the most natural and easy one in the world for the |
| W1:44.5 | untrained. You are quite ready to learn the form of exercise we will | use today, but you may find that you will encounter strong |
| W1:44.8 | one that has any meaning because it is the only one that has any | use to you at all. |
| W1:47.9 | Repeat the idea for today often. | Use it as your answer to any disturbance. Remember that peace is your |
| W1:48.2 | very frequent. Merely repeat the idea as often as possible. You can | use it with your eyes open at any time and in any situation. It is |
| W1:48.2 | to yourself several times. It is particularly important that you | use the idea immediately should anything disturb your peace of mind. |
| W1:R1.6 | are not always given in quite their original form of statement. | Use them as they are given here. It is not necessary to return to the |
| W1:52.4 | from dawning on my mind. Let me understand that I am trying to | use time against God. Let me learn to give the past away, realizing |
| W1:55.6 | about myself are real. It is for that purpose that I attempt to | use everyone and everything. It is this that I believe the world is |
| W1:62.4 | be glad to begin and end this day by practicing today's idea and to | use it as frequently as possible throughout the day. It will help to |
| W1:64.2 | body itself. Yet we have learned that the Holy Spirit has another | use for all the illusions you have made, and therefore He sees |
| W1:65.4 | training which your mind needs, so that the Holy Spirit can | use it consistently for the purpose He shares with you. |
| W1:65.10 | You need not | use these exact words, but try to get a sense of being willing to |
| W1:65.12 | practice periods, which should be undertaken at least once an hour, | use this form in applying today's idea: |
| W1:67.4 | which is in accord with God as He defines Himself is appropriate for | use. We are trying today to undo your definition of God and replace |
| W1:76.4 | under different names in a long catalogue of rituals that have no | use and serve no purpose. You think you must obey the “laws” of |
| W1:79.6 | understand that you have the means to solve them all. And you would | use the means because you recognize the problem. |
| W1:R2.5 | however, are merely suggestions. It is not the particular words you | use that matter. |
| W1:81.7 | means. Let me not separate my function from my will. I would not | use this for an alien purpose. |
| W1:82.7 | Let me not | use this to hide my function from me. I would use this as an |
| W1:82.7 | Let me not use this to hide my function from me. I would | use this as an opportunity to fulfill my function. This may threaten |
| W1:83.4 | not give me a function other than the one God gave me. Let me not | use this to justify a function God did not give me. |
| W1:84.7 | This is no justification for denying my Self. I will not | use this to attack love. Let this not tempt me to attack myself. |
| W1:85.4 | Let me not | use this as a block to sight. The light of the world will shine all |
| W1:87.2 | [73] I will there be light. I will | use the power of my will today. It is not my will to grope about in |
| W1:89.2 | would accept only what the laws of God entitle me to have that I may | use it on behalf of the function He has given me. |
| W1:89.3 | You might | use these suggestions for specific applications of this idea: |
| W1:90.1 | For this review we will | use these ideas: |
| W1:91.2 | light is useless to you then, even though it is there. You cannot | use it because its presence is unknown to you. And the seeming |
| W1:92.11 | evening we will practice thus. After the morning meeting, we will | use the day in preparation for the time at night when we will meet |
| W1:93.12 | You may not be willing or even able to | use the first five minutes of each hour for these exercises. Try, |
| W1:95.4 | The | use of the first five minutes of every waking hour for practicing the |
| W1:95.7 | helpful since it imposes firmer structure. Do not, however, | use your lapses from this schedule as an excuse not to return to it |
| W1:96.2 | illusion cannot be reconciled, no matter how you try, what means you | use, and where you see the problem, must be accepted if you would be |
| W1:96.5 | Spirit makes | use of mind as means to find its Self-expression. And the mind which |
| W1:96.12 | Salvation comes from my One Self. Its thoughts are mine to | use. |
| W1:97.3 | which you give are multiplied over and over, for the miracle makes | use of time but is not ruled by it. Salvation is a miracle, the first |
| W1:97.12 | Use them against temptation, and escape its sorry consequences if you | |
| W1:98.7 | Him your tiny gift of but five minutes. He will give the words you | use in practicing today's idea the deep conviction and the certainty |
| W1:108.7 | we practice with the special case of giving and receiving. We will | use this simple lesson in the obvious because it has results we |
| W1:R3.5 | The format you should | use for these reviews is this: devote five minutes twice a day, or |
| W1:R3.6 | Place the ideas within your mind and let it | use them as it chooses. Give it faith that it will use them wisely, |
| W1:R3.6 | mind and let it use them as it chooses. Give it faith that it will | use them wisely, being helped in its decisions by the One Who gave |
| W1:R3.6 | mind employ the thoughts you gave as they were given you for it to | use. |
| W1:R3.7 | given them in perfect trust, in perfect confidence that you would | use them well, in perfect faith that you would see their messages and |
| W1:R3.7 | them well, in perfect faith that you would see their messages and | use them for yourself. Offer them to your mind in that same trust and |
| W1:R3.10 | Here is another chance to | use it well. In these reviews we stress the need to let your learning |
| W1:R3.10 | to give your daily two ideas a brief but serious review each hour. | Use one on the hour and the other one a half an hour later. You need |
| W1:R3.13 | review assignment will conclude with a restatement of the thought to | use each hour and the one to be applied on each half hour as well. |
| W1:121.8 | are willing, you can learn today to take the key to happiness and | use it on your own behalf. We will devote ten minutes in the morning |
| W1:126.1 | the means by which salvation comes to you and would not hesitate to | use it now. |
| W1:127.7 | to give some time to God today and understand there is no better | use for time than this. For 15 minutes twice today escape from every |
| W1:128.1 | you see has nothing that you need to offer you, nothing that you can | use in any way, nor anything at all that serves to give you joy. |
| W1:131.2 | by which you strive for them are meaningless as they are. Who can | use such senseless means and hope through them to gain in anything? |
| W1:136.3 | be unconscious but because of the rapidity with which you choose to | use them. In that second, even less, in which the choice is made, you |
| W1:R4.10 | the gift which He has laid in it for you to have of Him. And we will | use no format for our practicing but this: |
| W1:161.3 | Thus were specifics made. And now it is specifics we must | use in practicing. We give them to the Holy Spirit that He may employ |
| W1:161.3 | purpose which is different from the one we gave to them. Yet He can | use but what we made to teach us from a different point of view, so |
| W1:161.3 | teach us from a different point of view, so we can see a different | use in everything. |
| W1:161.16 | idea is your safe escape from anger and from fear. Be sure you | use it instantly, should you be tempted to attack a brother and |
| W1:162.4 | Today we practice simply. For the words we | use are mighty, and they need no thoughts beyond themselves to change |
| W1:R5.14 | another day. No thought that we review but we surround with it and | use the thoughts to hold it up before our minds and keep it clear in |
| W1:R5.15 | faith in the experience that comes from practice, not the means we | use. We wait for the experience and recognize that it is only here |
| W1:R5.15 | experience and recognize that it is only here conviction lies. We | use the words, and try and try again to go beyond them to their |
| W1:181.8 | And we will also | use these thoughts to keep us safe throughout the day. We do not seek |
| W1:183.7 | Let all your thoughts become anchored on this. No other words we | use except at the beginning, when we say today's idea but once. And |
| W1:184.9 | yet were asked to take a teaching function. You have need to | use the symbols of the world a while. But be you not deceived by them |
| W1:184.11 | Use all the little names and symbols which delineate the world of | |
| W1:184.11 | Meaning, and a single Source Which unifies all things within Itself. | Use all the names the world bestows on them but for convenience, yet |
| W1:184.13 | truth at all. One Name we bring into our practicing. One Name we | use to unify our sight. |
| W1:184.14 | And though we | use a different name for each awareness of an aspect of God's Son, we |
| W1:184.14 | they have but One Name, Which He has given them. It is this Name we | use in practicing. And through Its use, all foolish separations |
| W1:184.14 | given them. It is this Name we use in practicing. And through Its | use, all foolish separations disappear which kept us blind. And we |
| W1:185.8 | still. What do you ask for in your heart? Forget the words you | use in making your requests. Consider but what you believe will |
| W1:191.6 | you learn as well that you have freed the world. You have no need to | use it cruelly and then perceive this savage need in it. You set it |
| W1:193.14 | day, another minute, or another instant. Time was made for this. | Use it today for what its purpose is. Morning and night, devote what |
| W1:199.7 | within a body. Be you free, so that the Holy Spirit can make | use of your escape from bondage to set free the many who perceive |
| W1:R6.1 | 15 minutes, and the hourly remembrances we make throughout the day, | use the idea as often as you can between them. Each of these ideas |
| W1:R6.2 | for that one, there must be no exceptions made. And so we need to | use them all and let them blend as one, as each contributes to the |
| W2:I.1 | Words will mean little now. We | use them but as guides on which we do not now depend. For now we seek |
| W2:I.2 | us happy. We will not consider time a matter of duration now. We | use as much as we will need for the result that we desire. Nor will |
| W2:I.3 | with a central thought for all the days to come. And we will | use that thought to introduce our times of rest and calm our minds at |
| W2:I.11 | One further | use for words we still retain. From time to time, instructions on a |
| W2:285.1 | things the instant I accept my holiness. For what would be the | use of pain to me, what purpose would my suffering fulfill, and how |
| W2:294.1 | thing as well? Did God create the mortal and corruptible? What | use has God's beloved Son for what must die? And yet a neutral thing |
| W2:294.1 | of love bestowed upon it. Its neutrality protects it while it has a | use. And afterwards, without a purpose, it is laid aside. It is not |
| W2:294.2 | cannot be sinful or sinless, neither good nor bad. Let me, then, | use this dream to help Your plan that we awaken from all dreams we |
| W2:295.1 | Christ asks that He may | use my eyes today and thus redeem the world. He asks this gift that |
| W2:295.2 | asked a gift of me, and one I give that it be given me. Help me to | use the eyes of Christ today and thus allow the Holy Spirit's love to |
| W2:296.1 | through me. I am resolved to let You speak through me, for I would | use no words but Yours and have no thoughts which are apart from |
| W2:304.1 | the holy sights Christ looks upon unless it is His vision that I | use. Perception is a mirror, not a fact. And what I look on is my |
| W2:306.1 | What but Christ's vision would I | use today when it can offer me a day in which I see a world so like |
| W2:311.1 | it cannot see totality and therefore judges falsely. Let us not | use it today but make a gift of it to Him Who has a different use for |
| W2:311.1 | us not use it today but make a gift of it to Him Who has a different | use for it. He will relieve you of the agony of all the judgments you |
| W2:314.2 | Father, we were mistaken in the past and choose to | use the present to be free. Now do we leave the future in Your hands, |
| W2:WAI.2 | Our | use for words is almost over now. Yet in the final days of this one |
| W2:353.1 | Father, I give all that is mine today to Christ to | use in any way that best will serve the purpose that I share with |
| W2:FL.1 | Our final lessons will be left as free of words as possible. We | use them but at the beginning of our practicing and only to remind us |
| M:I.3 | to what you think you are teaching. Yet it is impossible not to | use the content of any situation on behalf of what you really teach |
| M:5.5 | sickness as a decision of the mind for a purpose for which it would | use the body is the basis of healing. And this is so for healing in |
| M:5.5 | patient could merely rise up without their aid and say, “I have no | use for this.” There is no form of sickness that would not be cured |
| M:7.2 | it. Now the teacher of God has only one course to follow. He must | use his reason to tell himself that he has given the problem to One |
| M:12.4 | new teacher of God of what the body's purpose really is; the only | use there really is for it. This lesson is enough to let the thought |
| M:12.4 | appear to share the illusion of separation, but because of what they | use the body for, they do not believe in the illusion despite |
| M:12.5 | The central lesson is always this—that what you | use the body for, it will become to you. Use it for sin or for |
| M:12.5 | always this—that what you use the body for, it will become to you. | Use it for sin or for attack, which is the same as sin, and you will |
| M:12.5 | it is sinful, it is weak, and being weak, it suffers and it dies. | Use it to bring the Word of God to those who have it not, and the |
| M:13.1 | fade into the nothingness from which it came when there is no more | use for it. Now its real meaning is a lesson. Like all lessons, it is |
| M:16.2 | There are some general rules which do apply, although each one must | use them as best he can in his own way. Routines as such are |

| Tx:17.34 | the most imposing and deceptive frame of all the defenses the ego | uses. Its thought system is offered here, surrounded by a frame so |
| Tx:18.2 | The Holy Spirit never | uses substitutes. Where the ego perceives one person as a replacement |
| Tx:18.20 | Holy Spirit, ever practical in His wisdom, accepts your dreams and | uses them as means for waking. You would have used them to remain |
| Tx:18.21 | And think not that He has forgotten you to whom He gave the gift. He | uses everyone who calls on Him as means for the salvation of |

| Tx:21.34 | for all the means for sin by which you sought to find it. But as He | uses them, they lead away from sin because His purpose lies in the |
| Tx:21.56 | insanity, for it depends entirely on reason's absence. The ego never | uses it because it does not realize that it exists. The partially |

| Tx:28.56 | thing. And then you hate it, not for what it is, but for the | uses you have made of it. You shrink from what it sees and what it |
| W1:91.9 | a body, what are you? You need to be aware of what the Holy Spirit | uses to replace the image of a body in your mind. You need to feel |
| W1:97.6 | in healing power each time someone accepts them as his thoughts and | uses them to heal. |
| W1:R3.6 | in your mind? Have faith in these reviews, the means the Holy Spirit | uses will not fail. The wisdom of your mind will come to your |

| W1:162.4 | need no thoughts beyond themselves to change the mind of him who | uses them. So wholly is it changed that it is now the treasury in |
| W1:184.11 | of darkness. Yet accept them not as your reality. The Holy Spirit | uses all of them, but He does not forget Creation has One Name, One |
| W1:196.2 | truth to save its lies. Yet must it fail to understand the truth it | uses thus. But you can learn to see these foolish applications and |
| W2:305.1 | Who | uses but Christ's vision finds a peace so deep and quiet, |

| W1:5.2 | When | using the idea for today for a specific perceived cause of an upset |

| W1:24.3 | for today require much more honesty than you are accustomed to | using. A few subjects, honestly and carefully considered in each of |

| W1:27.6 | minutes. It is recommended that you set a definite time interval for | using the idea when you wake or shortly afterwards and attempt to |
| W1:28.6 | In | using the table as a subject for applying the idea for today, you are |
| W1:30.5 | practice periods to applying today's idea with your eyes closed, | using whatever subjects come to mind and looking within rather than |
| W1:37.6 | close your eyes and apply the idea to any person who occurs to you, | using his name and saying: |
| W1:37.9 | It is particularly helpful to apply it silently to anyone you meet, | using his name as you do so. It is essential to use the idea if |
| W1:45.12 | In | using the shorter form for applying today's idea, try to remember how |
| W1:64.4 | will you be happy. That is because your function is to be happy by | using the means by which happiness becomes inevitable. |
| W1:R2.5 | Reaffirm your determination in the shorter practice periods as well, | using the original form of the idea for general application and a |
| W1:81.6 | Specific forms for | using the idea might include: |

| W1:95.7 | periods for a while and urge you to omit as few as possible. | Using the first five minutes of the hour will be particularly helpful |

| W1:R4.10 | and say them slowly to yourself. There is no hurry now, for you are | using time for its intended purpose. Let each word shine with the |
| W1:164.2 | Father's call to you. Christ answers for you, echoing your Self, | using your voice to give His glad consent, accepting your deliverance |
| W1:190.3 | God. For vengeance is not part of love. And fear, denying love and | using pain to prove that God is dead, has shown that death is victor |
| W1:192.7 | that this is so. Without its kindly light we grope in darkness, | using reason but to justify our rage and our attack. Our |

| W1:17.8 | As | usual, it is essential to make no distinction between what you |
| W1:26.6 | very many for any one practice period, because a longer time than | usual should be spent with each one. Today's idea should be applied |
| W1:28.8 | As | usual, the applications should include the name of the subject which |
| W1:39.6 | Begin the practice periods as | usual by repeating today's idea to yourself. Then with closed eyes |
| W1:46.3 | longer practice periods by repeating today's idea to yourself, as | usual. Close your eyes as you do so and spend a minute or two in |

| Tx:20.64 | There is indeed a difference between this | vain imagining and vision. The difference lies not in them, but in |

| Tx:31.94 | brothers, hear and join with me. God has ordained I cannot call in | vain, and in His certainty I rest content. For you will hear, and you |
| W1:54.5 | all the universe. A Son of God cannot think or speak or act in | vain. He cannot be alone in anything. It is therefore in my power to |

| W1:200.8 | is the answer to conflicting goals, to senseless journeys, frantic, | vain pursuits, and meaningless endeavors. Now the way is easy, |

| Tx:16.63 | be limited long to littleness. Once you have crossed the bridge, the | value of the body is so diminished in your sight that you will see no |
| Tx:16.63 | see no need at all to magnify it. For you will realize that the only | value which the body has is to enable you to bring your brothers to |

| Tx:17.38 | that you can have, seen very differently. You cannot compare their | value by comparing a picture to a frame. It must be the pictures only |
| Tx:17.41 | of creation in exchange for your little picture, wholly without | value and entirely deprived of meaning. |
| Tx:17.60 | The | value of deciding in advance what you want to happen is simply that |
| Tx:17.68 | by what it offers you. It interferes not with the goal, but with the | value of the goal to you. Accept not the illusion of peace it offers, |
| Tx:18.19 | and to prevent yourself from waking. And while you see more | value in sleeping than in waking, you will not let go of it. |
| Tx:18.69 | if you recognize you need do nothing, you have withdrawn the body's | value from your mind. Here is the quick and open door through which |

| Tx:19.60 | This [is] the | value that you think peace would rob you of. This is what you believe |

| Tx:20.6 | can neither offer nor accept; hold out nor take. Only the mind can | value, and only the mind decides on what it would receive and give. |
| Tx:20.7 | what he has placed upon it and take it for their own. Here is the | value that you lay upon your brother and on yourself. Here is your |
| Tx:20.39 | It is impossible to overestimate your brother's | value. Only the ego does this, but all it means is that it wants the |
| Tx:20.56 | fearful, but you are not immobilized. The holy instant is of greater | value now to you than its unholy seeming counterpart, and you have |
| Tx:20.64 | The means seem real because the goal is valued. And judgment has no | value unless the goal is sin. |
| Tx:20.69 | Christ may rise before your vision and give you joy. And place no | value on your brother's body, which holds him to illusions of what he |
| Tx:20.70 | and sparkling with the shining lilies you laid upon it. What can you | value more than this? Why do you think the body is a better home, a |
| Tx:21.34 | you made them. He would not take them from you, for He sees their | value as a means for what He wills for you. You made perception that |

| Tx:19.91 | The fourth obstacle to be surmounted hangs like a heavy | veil before the face of Christ. Yet as His face rises beyond it, |

| Tx:19.92 | is the secret bargain made with the ego to keep what lies beyond the | veil forever blotted out and unremembered. Here is your promise never |
| Tx:19.95 | your eyes. For you realize that if you look on this and let the | veil be lifted, they will be gone forever. All of your “friends,” |
| Tx:19.96 | can stand against your will. For what attracts you from beyond the | veil is also deep within you, unseparated from it and completely one. |

| Tx:22.40 | in your awareness, and peace has reached you even here before the | veil. Think what will happen after! The love of Christ will light |
| Tx:22.41 | in you but will rejoice. How beautiful the sight you saw beyond the | veil which you will bring to light the tired eyes of those as weary |

| Tx:16.71 | The special relationship takes | vengeance on the past. By seeking to remove suffering in the past, it |

| Tx:18.53 | love? Would you not welcome and support the shift from fantasies of | vengeance to release from them? Your perception of the body can |
| Tx:18.54 | you? You have identified with this thing you hate, the instrument of | vengeance and the perceived source of your guilt. You have done this |
| Tx:18.55 | an abode which harbors hate and where you have sown the seeds of | vengeance, violence, and death. This thing you made to serve your |
| Tx:18.56 | Yet only thus can you escape. The home of | vengeance is not yours; the place you set aside to house your hate is |
| Tx:18.88 | all the twisted thoughts, all the insane attacks, the fury, | vengeance, and betrayal that were made to keep the guilt in place, so |
| Tx:19.95 | appeal of guilt, the “holy” waxen image of death, and the fear of | vengeance of the ego you swore in blood not to desert, all rise and |
| Tx:21.71 | him. They join the army of the powerless, to wage their war of | vengeance, bitterness, and spite on him to make him one with them. |
| Tx:23.26 | can be no release and no escape. Atonement thus becomes a myth, and | vengeance, not forgiveness, is the Will of God. From where all this |
| Tx:23.30 | This is the reason why you must attack. Here is what makes your | vengeance justified. Behold, unveiled, the ego's secret gift, torn |
| Tx:23.31 | cease his attack on you for what you stole. Nor will God end His | vengeance upon both, for in His madness He must have this substitute |
| Tx:24.10 | bow to it against his will. And God Himself must honor it or suffer | vengeance. Every twinge of malice or stab of hate or wish to separate |
| Tx:25.43 | himself for his mistakes than damn another. He is not an arbiter of | vengeance nor a punisher of sin. The kindness of his sight rests on |
| Tx:25.65 | of which the world knows nothing. To the world, justice and | vengeance are the same, for sinners see justice only as their |
| Tx:25.66 | is not just that one should lack for what another has. For that is | vengeance in whatever form it takes. Justice demands no sacrifice, |
| Tx:25.67 | Vengeance is alien to God's Mind because He knows of justice. To be | |
| Tx:25.67 | justice. To be just is to be fair and not be vengeful. Fairness and | vengeance are impossible, for each one contradicts the other and |
| Tx:25.68 | They must believe He shares their own confusion and cannot avoid the | vengeance that their own belief in justice must entail. And so they |

| Tx:9.78 | in a Son of God; a sick god, self-created, self-sufficient, very | vicious, and very vulnerable. Is this the idol you would worship? Is |
| Tx:19.51 | search of guilt, for they are kept cold and starving and made very | vicious by their master, who allows them to feast only upon what they |
| Tx:27.86 | dream you knew that you were dreaming. Let them be as hateful and as | vicious as they may, they could have no effect on you unless you |
| W1:22.1 | is thus perceived as self defense. This becomes an increasingly | vicious circle until he is willing to change how he sees. Otherwise, |
| W1:95.1 | You see yourself as a ridiculous parody on God's creation—weak, | vicious, ugly and sinful, miserable and beset with pain. |
| W1:101.4 | real, its offering is death and meted out in cruel form to match the | vicious wishes in which sin is born. If sin is real, salvation has |

| Tx:9.42 | of you. This is when it will shift abruptly from suspiciousness to | viciousness, since its uncertainty is increased. Yet it is surely |

| Tx:25.66 | to “atone” for all that you would keep and not give up. So is the | victim seen as partly you, with someone else by far the greater part. |
| Tx:27.23 | you think are yours in someone else. And thus does he become your | victim, not your brother, different from you in that he is more |
| Tx:27.62 | himself attacked unjustly and by something not himself. He is the | victim of this “something else,” a thing outside himself for which he |

| Tx:28.26 | because they show the mind made sickness and employed the body to be | victim or effect of what it made. Yet half the lesson will not teach |
| Tx:28.54 | to be competitive. It can be victimized but cannot feel itself as | victim. It accepts no role but does what it is told, without attack. |

| W1:153.5 | of God by your defensiveness. For you behold the Son of God as but a | victim to attack by fantasies, by dreams, and by illusions he has |

| Tx:23.8 | death of God, if it were possible, would be your death. Is this a | victory? The ego always marches to defeat because it thinks that |

| Tx:3.68 | in this position, it is in one sense more tenable than the | view that they created themselves. At least it acknowledges the fact |

| Tx:8.72 | This is a particularly appealing argument from the ego's point of | view because it obscures the obvious attack which underlies the |

| Tx:26.85 | you to realize Their Presence? Only this—you have a differential | view of when attack is justified and when you think it is unfair and |
| Tx:26.88 | of the temptation to perceive yourself unfairly treated. In this | view, you seek to find an innocence which is not Theirs but yours |
| Tx:27.12 | of what it represents. This leaves no space in which a different | view, another purpose, can be given it. You do not know its purpose. |
| Tx:27.25 | it really is. From an idea of self as two, there comes a necessary | view of function split between the two. And what you would correct is |
| Tx:27.36 | in different ways. And what would be an answer from one point of | view is not an answer in another light. You are in conflict. Thus it |
| Tx:27.38 | not ask a question to be answered, but only to restate its point of | view. All questions asked within this world are but a way of looking, |
| Tx:28.29 | not perceived as sick by both your minds, from separate points of | view. Uniting with a brother's mind prevents the cause of sickness |

| Tx:6.95 | it. The Holy Spirit will enable you to go on if you follow Him. Your | vigilance is the sign that you want Him to guide you. Vigilance does |
| Tx:6.95 | Him. Your vigilance is the sign that you want Him to guide you. | Vigilance does require effort, but only to teach you that effort |
| Tx:7.24 | yours. Its application does not matter. It is always maximal. Your | vigilance does not establish it as yours, but it does enable you to |
| Tx:7.61 | because you think there is something else. Belief does not require | vigilance unless it is conflicted. If it is, there are conflicting |
| Tx:7.61 | components within it which have engendered a state of war, and | vigilance therefore has become essential. Vigilance has no place at |
| Tx:7.61 | a state of war, and vigilance therefore has become essential. | Vigilance has no place at all in peace. It is necessary against |
| Tx:7.63 | up the idea of conflict entirely and for all time. [This requires | vigilance only as long as you do not recognize what is true.] While |
| Tx:7.63 | two totally contradictory thought systems share truth, your need for | vigilance is apparent. Your minds are dividing their allegiance |
| Tx:9.1 | of the ego to the errors which other egos make is not the kind of | vigilance the Holy Spirit would have you maintain. Egos are critical |

| Tx:5.39 | Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this that the Holy Spirit sees. This | vision invariably frightens the ego because it is so calm. Peace is |
| Tx:9.89 | willing to see it as it is. You will see nothing at all. And your | vision will automatically look beyond it to what is in you and all |
| Tx:11.22 | what you will really see. You cannot lay aside the obstacle to real | vision without looking upon it, for to lay aside means to judge |
| Tx:11.35 | to this altar, for it is the altar to truth. There you will see your | vision changed, and there you will learn to see truly. From this |
| Tx:11.56 | Holy Spirit's mission, for He knows that they have not lost their | vision but merely sleep. He would awaken them from the sleep of |
| Tx:11.56 | and He will look upon whatever you see with love if you accept His | vision as yours. |
| Tx:11.57 | The Holy Spirit keeps the | vision of Christ for every Son of God who sleeps. In His sight the |
| Tx:11.57 | In His sight the Son of God is perfect, and He longs to share His | vision with you. He will show you the real world because God gave you |
| Tx:11.80 | cannot lose it. A Voice will answer every question you ask, and a | Vision will correct the perception of everything you see. For what |
| Tx:11.82 | not see it. Yet what He does see is yours to behold, and through His | vision your perception is healed. You have made the invisible the |
| Tx:11.82 | between your awareness and truth. God's Son can be seen because his | vision is shared. The Holy Spirit looks upon him and sees nothing |
| Tx:12.17 | Here is both his pain and his healing, for the Holy Spirit's | vision is merciful, and His remedy is quick. Do not hide suffering |
| Tx:12.38 | do not hear, for you are preoccupied with your own voice. And the | vision of Christ is not in your sight, for you look upon yourself |
| Tx:12.41 | Vision depends on light, and you cannot see in darkness. Yet in the | |
| Tx:12.41 | made you will no longer see, for sight of it depends upon denying | vision. Yet from denying vision, it does not follow that you cannot |
| Tx:12.41 | see, for sight of it depends upon denying vision. Yet from denying | vision, it does not follow that you cannot see. But this is what |
| Tx:12.42 | Do not seek | vision through your eyes, for you made your way of seeing that you |
| Tx:12.42 | are deceived. Beyond this darkness and yet still within you is the | vision of Christ, Who looks on all in light. Your vision comes from |
| Tx:12.42 | within you is the vision of Christ, Who looks on all in light. Your | vision comes from fear, as His from love. And He sees for you as your |
| Tx:12.43 | different worlds arise from their different visions. See through the | vision that is given you, for through Christ's vision He beholds |
| Tx:12.43 | See through the vision that is given you, for through Christ's | vision He beholds Himself. And seeing what He is, He knows His |
| Tx:12.43 | by your dreams. And this you will see as you look with Him, for His | vision is His gift of love to you, given Him of the Father for you. |
| Tx:12.44 | darkness the Christ in them and recognized Him. In the sanity of His | vision, they looked upon themselves with love, seeing themselves as |
| Tx:12.44 | love, seeing themselves as the Holy Spirit sees them. And with this | vision of the truth in them came all the beauty of the world to shine |
| Tx:12.51 | to accept the light that is offered you. For the light of perfect | vision is freely given as it is freely received and can be accepted |
| Tx:12.57 | to be his Father's witness and his own. Although he slept, Christ's | vision did not leave him. And so it is that he can call unto himself |
| Tx:12.60 | must be denied, for sight of it is costing you a different kind of | vision. You cannot see both worlds, for each of them involves a |
| Tx:12.63 | From such a twisted reference point what could you see? All | vision starts with the perceiver who judges what is true and what is |
| Tx:12.64 | him. Yet while he still lays value on his own, he will deny the | vision of the other world, maintaining that he loves what he loves |
| Tx:13.2 | Heaven. Perception can reach everywhere under His guidance, for the | vision of Christ beholds everything in light. Yet no perception, |
| Tx:13.4 | His message speaks of timelessness in time, and that is why Christ's | vision looks on everything with love. Yet even Christ's vision is not |
| Tx:13.4 | why Christ's vision looks on everything with love. Yet even Christ's | vision is not His reality. The golden aspects of reality which spring |
| Tx:13.5 | to see. For light must come into the darkened world to make Christ's | vision possible even here. Help Him to give His gift of light to all |
| Tx:13.6 | holy Son, created in the One Reality that is his Father. Christ's | vision is His gift to you. His Being is His Father's gift to Him. |
| Tx:13.28 | lovely truth in you. Look through the cloud of guilt that dims your | vision, and look past darkness to the holy place where you will see |
| Tx:13.29 | only illusions. All else He would have you see. And in Christ's | vision, He would show you the perfect purity that is forever within |
| Tx:13.63 | in you will waken them, and they will not leave you asleep. The | vision of Christ is given the very instant that it is perceived. |
| Tx:14.30 | He sees for you, and unless you look with Him, He cannot see. The | vision of Christ is not for Him alone but for Him with you. Bring, |
| Tx:14.31 | show you that all meaning, including yours, comes not from double | vision but from the gentle fusing of everything into one meaning, one |
| Tx:14.31 | purpose. God has one purpose which He shares with you. The single | vision which the Holy Spirit offers you will bring this oneness to |
| Tx:15.20 | brilliance, which will literally blind you to this world by its own | vision, you cannot supply. And here it is, all in this instant, |
| Tx:15.85 | of your brothers to the body, so would the Holy Spirit release your | vision and let you see the Great Rays shining from them, so unlimited |
| Tx:15.85 | from them, so unlimited that they reach to God. It is this shift in | vision which is accomplished in the holy instant. Yet it is needful |
| Tx:15.88 | representing its demands to make little and ineffectual. Limit your | vision of a brother to his body, which you will do as long as you |
| Tx:15.90 | Seek not Atonement in further separation. And limit not your | vision of God's Son to what interferes with his release and what the |
| Tx:17.12 | the world with forgiving eyes. For forgiveness literally transforms | vision and lets you see the real world reaching quietly and gently |
| Tx:18.86 | and the lifelessness are seen only through the body's eyes. Its | vision is distorted, and the messages it transmits to you who made it |
| Tx:19.2 | your ego would make of him. Thus do you see him free, and in this | vision does the Holy Spirit share. And since He shares it, He has |
| Tx:19.28 | clearly sees the Son of God can make mistakes. On this you share His | vision. Yet you do not share His recognition of the difference |
| Tx:19.35 | before your holy sight, for you who were sightless have been given | vision, and you can see. Look not for what has been removed but for |
| Tx:20.9 | who accept the Holy Spirit's purpose as their own share also His | vision. And what enables Him to see His purpose shine forth from |
| Tx:20.10 | can you use what I have given unless you share it. The Holy Spirit's | vision is no idle gift, no plaything to be tossed about a while and |
| Tx:20.11 | You have the | vision now to look past all illusions. It has been given you to see |
| Tx:20.11 | upon illusions, knowing his savior stands beside him? With him, your | vision has become the greatest power for the undoing of illusion that |
| Tx:20.12 | not in fear, but faith. And there will be no fear in us, for in our | vision will be no illusions—only a pathway to the open door of |
| Tx:20.13 | be to you the savior from illusions, and look on him with the new | vision that looks upon the lilies and brings you joy. We go beyond |
| Tx:20.15 | your savior and your friend, released from crucifixion through your | vision and free to lead you now where he would be. He will not leave |
| Tx:20.40 | through him. What is in him will shine so brightly in your grateful | vision that you will merely love him and be glad. You will not think |
| Tx:20.40 | still has meaning? For this insistence is of those who do not see. | Vision or judgment is your choice, but never both of these. |
| Tx:20.43 | both of you will offer and receive it for you both. And through His | vision will you see it, and through His understanding recognize it |
| Tx:20.62 | the means remain unquestioned while the end is cherished. | Vision adapts to wish, for sight is always secondary to desire. And |
| Tx:20.62 | to desire. And if you see the body, you have chosen judgment and not | vision. For vision, like relationships, has no order. You either see |
| Tx:20.62 | if you see the body, you have chosen judgment and not vision. For | vision, like relationships, has no order. You either see or not. |
| Tx:20.64 | There is indeed a difference between this vain imagining and | vision. The difference lies not in them, but in their purpose. Both |
| Tx:20.65 | except through judgment. To see the body is the sign that you lack | vision and have denied the means the Holy Spirit offers you to serve |
| Tx:20.65 | its purpose through the means of sin? Judgment you taught yourself; | vision is learned from Him Who would undo your teaching. His vision |
| Tx:20.65 | vision is learned from Him Who would undo your teaching. His | vision cannot see the body because it cannot look on sin. And thus it |
| Tx:20.66 | escape from fear. Salvation is the Holy Spirit's goal. The means is | vision. For what the seeing look upon is sinless. No one who loves |
| Tx:20.66 | he sees he did not make, for it was given him to see, as was the | vision which made his seeing possible. |
| Tx:20.67 | Vision will come to you at first in glimpses, but they will be enough | |
| Tx:20.67 | what was never lost will quietly return. It has been saved for you. | Vision would not be necessary had judgment not been made. Desire now |
| Tx:20.68 | All this is given, waiting on your desire but to receive it. | Vision is freely given to those who ask to see. |
| Tx:20.69 | is given you in shining light, to look on with the Holy Spirit's | vision and to rejoice in along with Him. For peace will come to all |
| Tx:20.69 | then, to see your brother sinless that Christ may rise before your | vision and give you joy. And place no value on your brother's body, |
| Tx:20.70 | and gave you shall be yours. This is your purpose now, and the | vision that makes it yours is ready to be given. You have the vision |
| Tx:20.70 | the vision that makes it yours is ready to be given. You have the | vision which enables each one to see the body not. And as you look |
| Tx:20.71 | There is no problem, no event or situation, no perplexity that | vision will not solve. All is redeemed when looked upon with vision. |
| Tx:20.71 | that vision will not solve. All is redeemed when looked upon with | vision. For this is not your sight, and brings with it the laws |
| Tx:20.72 | Everything looked upon with | vision falls gently into place according to the laws brought to it by |
| Tx:20.73 | means to play the idle game of death in your imagination. But | vision sets all things right, bringing them gently within the kindly |
| Tx:20.76 | saw within; or better, if you saw at all or merely judged against. | Vision is the means by which the Holy Spirit translates your |
| Tx:20.77 | that never waste away, who need persuade you to accept the gift of | vision? And after vision, who is there who could refuse what must |
| Tx:20.77 | away, who need persuade you to accept the gift of vision? And after | vision, who is there who could refuse what must come after? Think but |
| Tx:21.1 | difficulty in miracles is meaningless. Everything looked upon with | vision is healed and holy. Nothing perceived without it means |
| Tx:21.4 | which to light. Judgment will always give you false directions, but | vision shows you where to go. Why should you guess? |
| Tx:21.5 | are not happy learners yet because you still remain uncertain that | vision gives you more than judgment does, and you have learned that |
| Tx:21.11 | This is the | vision of the Son of God, whom you know well. Here is the sight of |
| Tx:21.11 | and joined to all as surely as all is joined in you. Accept the | vision which can show you this and not the body. You know the ancient |
| Tx:21.12 | not withstand the memory of this song. And they will look upon the | vision of the Son of God, remembering who he is they sing of. What is |
| Tx:21.14 | This is the only thing that you need do for | vision, happiness, release from pain, and the complete escape from |
| Tx:21.22 | The Holy Spirit can give you faith in holiness and | vision to see it easily enough. But you have not left open and |
| Tx:21.23 | an instant of creation but of recognition. For recognition comes of | vision and suspended judgment. Then only is it possible to look |
| Tx:21.25 | When | vision is denied, confusion of cause and effect becomes inevitable. |
| Tx:21.32 | Faith and belief and | vision are the means by which the goal of holiness is reached. |
| Tx:21.32 | He reminds you there is but one. His faith and His belief and | vision are all for you. And when you have accepted them completely |
| Tx:21.32 | of yours, you will have need of them no longer. For faith and | vision and belief are meaningful only before the state of certainty |
| Tx:21.34 | The Holy Spirit sees perception as a means to teach you that the | vision of a holy relationship is all you want to see. Then will you |
| Tx:21.35 | Faith and belief become attached to | vision, as all the means that once served sin are redirected now |
| Tx:21.36 | the power of belief and faith goes far beyond the body, supporting | vision, not obstructing it. But first they chose to recognize how |
| Tx:21.36 | born of faith. For all who choose to look away from sin are given | vision and are led to holiness. |
| Tx:21.40 | to sin, and in the darkness so it still is seen. Yet in the light of | vision, it is looked upon quite differently. You can have faith in it |
| Tx:21.51 | There is another | vision and another Voice in which your freedom lies awaiting but your |
| Tx:21.58 | lead to changed perception. And in this change is room made way for | vision. Vision extends beyond itself, as does the purpose which it |
| Tx:21.58 | changed perception. And in this change is room made way for vision. | Vision extends beyond itself, as does the purpose which it serves and |
| Tx:21.77 | him through the body's eyes or let him be revealed to you through | vision? How this decision leads to its effects is not your problem. |
| Tx:21.84 | for the inconstant. Joy cannot be perceived except through constant | vision. And constant vision can be given only those who wish for |
| Tx:21.84 | Joy cannot be perceived except through constant vision. And constant | vision can be given only those who wish for constancy. The power of |
| Tx:21.87 | It is unshakable as is the love of God for His creation. Sure in its | vision as its Creator is in what He knows, it looks on everything and |
| Tx:22.4 | to sameness. [And here is sight of differences transformed to | vision.] And reason now can lead you to the logical conclusion of |
| Tx:22.6 | eyes which are not yours must make no sense to you. To whom would | vision such as this send back its messages? Surely not you, whose |
| Tx:22.6 | of the eyes which look upon the world. If this is not your | vision, what can it show to you? The brain cannot interpret what your |
| Tx:22.6 | what can it show to you? The brain cannot interpret what your | vision sees. This you would understand. The brain interprets to the |
| Tx:22.7 | else” which sees, and as not you, explains its sight to you. Your | vision would, of course, render this quite unnecessary. Yet if your |
| Tx:22.9 | You will perceive no difficulty in understanding what this | vision tells you, for everyone sees only what he thinks he is. And |
| Tx:22.9 | show you, you will understand because it is the truth. Only your | vision can convey to you what you can see. It reaches you directly |
| Tx:22.11 | is like a baby now in its rebirth. Yet in this infant is your | vision returned to you, and he will speak the language both of you |
| Tx:22.11 | yourself. For no two people can unite except through Christ, Whose | vision sees them one. |
| Tx:22.13 | Reason will tell you that they must have seen each other through a | vision not of the body and communicated in a language the body does |
| Tx:22.20 | that it is impossible for you to see no guilt in anyone. And if this | vision is the only means by which escape from guilt can be attained, |
| Tx:22.23 | Heaven with. A savior cannot be a judge, nor mercy condemnation. And | vision cannot damn, but only bless. Whose function is to save will |
| Tx:22.27 | For at its center Christ has been reborn to light His home with | vision that overlooks the world. Would you not have this holy home be |
| Tx:22.28 | All you need do to dwell in quiet here with Christ is share His | vision. Quickly and gladly is His vision given to anyone who is but |
| Tx:22.28 | here with Christ is share His vision. Quickly and gladly is His | vision given to anyone who is but willing to see his brother sinless. |
| Tx:22.29 | reason. This is not a play on words, for here is the beginning of a | vision that has meaning. Vision is sense, quite literally. If it is |
| Tx:22.29 | on words, for here is the beginning of a vision that has meaning. | Vision is sense, quite literally. If it is not the body's sight, it |
| Tx:22.33 | stopping at the outside form of nothing. To this distorted form of | vision, the outside of everything, the wall that stands between you |
| Tx:22.36 | his mistakes keep you from him whose holiness is yours. Let not the | vision of his holiness, the sight of which would show you your |
| Tx:22.56 | not recognize, and yet you will remember. Who can deny himself the | vision that he brings to others? And who would fail to recognize a |
| Tx:23.44 | that you lose sight of it? It can be kept shining before your | vision, forever clear and never out of sight if you defend it not. |
| Tx:24.16 | from love, which does not see his specialness at all. Christ's | vision is their “enemy,” for it sees not what they would look upon, |
| Tx:24.46 | own. Christ's hand holds all His brothers in Himself. He gives them | vision for their sightless eyes and sings to them of Heaven that |
| Tx:24.54 | him, and you as well. And let the fear of God no longer hold the | vision you were meant to see from you. Your brother's body shows not |
| Tx:25.19 | to behold in him what he sees not. And in this seeing is the | vision shared that looks on Christ instead of seeing death. |
| Tx:25.30 | too sees what He sees as far beyond the chance of change. But on His | vision sin cannot encroach, for sin has been corrected by His sight. |
| Tx:25.34 | to look upon and where their hearts are glad. In you there is a | vision which extends to all of them and covers them in gentleness and |
| Tx:31.62 | false, for what is real denies its opposite. There is no choice in | vision but this one. What you decide in this determines all you see |
| Tx:31.66 | would be impossible. But concepts are not difficult to change. One | vision, clearly seen, that does not fit the picture as it was |
| Tx:31.74 | on them as through a barrier which dims your sight and warps your | vision, so that you behold nothing with clarity. The light is kept |
| Tx:31.74 | fear is hell. All that is given you is for release—the sight, the | vision, and the inner Guide all lead you out of hell with those you |
| Tx:31.75 | and what he looks upon to judge what he beholds. And in this single | vision does he see the face of Christ and understands he looks on |
| Tx:31.78 | upon that he may be what they expect of him. This is the savior's | vision—that he see his innocence in all he looks upon and sees his |
| Tx:31.79 | the likeness of the self whose image has the wish begot of you. For | vision can but represent a wish, because it has no power to create. |
| Tx:31.80 | The savior's | vision is as innocent of what your brother is as it is free of any |
| Tx:31.80 | of old ideas and ancient concepts held so long and dear against the | vision of the Christ in you. |
| Tx:31.82 | light, for it is dark indeed, and men despair because the savior's | vision is withheld, and what they see is death. Their savior stands, |
| Tx:31.93 | it is but a step from there to Heaven. To your tired eyes I bring a | vision of a different world, so new and clean and fresh you will |
| Tx:31.93 | you will forget the pain and sorrow that you saw before. Yet this a | vision is which you must share with everyone you see, for otherwise |
| W1:8.3 | is filled with real ideas, is the first step to opening the way to | vision. |
| W1:10.3 | when you think you see it. As such, it is the prerequisite for | vision. |
| W1:15.1 | seeing. It is image-making. It takes the place of seeing, replacing | vision with illusions. |
| W1:15.2 | familiar objects which you see now. That is the beginning of real | vision. You can be certain that real vision will come quickly when |
| W1:15.2 | That is the beginning of real vision. You can be certain that real | vision will come quickly when this has occurred. |
| W1:20.3 | Your decision to see is all that | vision requires. What you want is yours. Do not mistake the little |
| W1:20.3 | is given him in Heaven and on earth. In your determination to see is | vision given you. |
| W1:23.4 | means, for where is the world you see when its cause is gone? | Vision already holds a replacement for everything you think you see |
| W1:27.1 | idea expresses something stronger than mere determination. It gives | vision priority among your desires. You may feel hesitant about using |
| W1:27.3 | Vision has no cost to anyone. | |
| W1:28.5 | You could, in fact, gain | vision from just that table if you could withdraw all your own ideas |
| W1:29.1 | and all subsequent ones as well. Today's idea is the whole basis for | vision. |
| W1:29.3 | to you. Its holy purpose stands beyond your little range. When | vision has shown you the holiness that lights up the world, you will |
| W1:30.1 | The idea for today is the springboard for | vision. From this idea will the world open up before you, and you |
| W1:30.2 | keeping it apart from us. That is the fundamental difference between | vision and the way you see. |
| W1:30.4 | Real | vision is not limited to concepts such as “near” and “far.” To help |
| W1:30.4 | well as those you can actually see, as you apply today's idea. Real | vision is not only unlimited by space and distance, but it does not |
| W1:35.1 | the way you see yourself now. It does, however, describe what | vision will show you. It is difficult for anyone who thinks he is in |
| W1:35.2 | you are in it is seen through the eyes of the image. This is not | vision. Images cannot see. |
| W1:37.1 | nothing is taken away from anyone; everyone gains through your holy | vision. It signifies the end of sacrifice because it offers everyone |
| W1:37.2 | losing. Yet is his wholeness restored to his awareness through your | vision. Your holiness blesses him by asking nothing of him. Those who |
| W1:39.7 | And it is your blessing on them that will save you and give you | vision. |
| W1:42.1 | power. And it is His gift to you, rather than your own, which offers | vision to you. |
| W1:42.5 | Vision must be possible. God gives truly; or, | |
| W1:43.3 | do in Him because whatever you think, you think with His Mind. If | vision is real, and it is real to the extent to which it shares the |
| W1:44.2 | the light that makes seeing possible. It is with you always, making | vision possible in every circumstance. |
| W1:45.1 | you think, just as nothing that you think you see is related to | vision in any way. There is no relationship between what is real and |
| W1:45.1 | Nothing that you think you see bears any resemblance to what | vision will show you. |
| W1:51.2 | I may learn to see. What I think I see now is taking the place of | vision. I must let it go by realizing that it has no meaning so that |
| W1:51.2 | vision. I must let it go by realizing that it has no meaning so that | vision may take its place. |
| W1:51.3 | I look upon. And it is this and only this that I see. This is not | vision. It is merely an illusion of reality, because my judgments |
| W1:52.5 | it is whether to see or not. What I have chosen to see has cost me | vision. Now I would choose again that I may see. |
| W1:56.3 | that what I see reflects what I think I am, I realize that | vision is my greatest need. The world I see attests to the fearful |
| W1:56.3 | that I let this image of myself go. As it is replaced by truth, | vision will surely be given me. And with this vision, I will look |
| W1:56.3 | is replaced by truth, vision will surely be given me. And with this | vision, I will look upon the world and upon myself with charity and |
| W1:59.3 | [42] God is my strength. | Vision is His gift. Let me not look to my own eyes to see today. Let |
| W1:59.3 | Let me be willing to exchange my pitiful illusion of seeing for the | vision that is given by God. Christ's vision is His gift, and He has |
| W1:59.3 | illusion of seeing for the vision that is given by God. Christ's | vision is His gift, and He has given it to me. Let me call upon this |
| W1:59.4 | is these I choose when I try to see through the body's eyes. Yet the | vision of Christ has been given me to replace them. It is through |
| W1:59.4 | of Christ has been given me to replace them. It is through this | vision that I choose to see. |
| W1:59.5 | to understand that God is the Light in which I see. Let me welcome | vision and the happy world it will show me. |
| W1:60.6 | me that His Son is sinless. And as I look upon the world with the | vision He has given me, I remember that I am His Son. |
| W1:75.9 | Realize that your forgiveness entitles you to | vision. Understand that the Holy Spirit never fails to give the gift |
| W1:75.9 | will be with you as you watch and wait. He will show you what true | vision sees. It is His Will, and you have joined with Him. Wait |
| W1:75.15 | and see it everywhere today, as we celebrate the beginning of your | vision and the sight of the real world which has come to replace the |
| W1:85.2 | the light. Grievances and light cannot go together, but light and | vision must be joined for me to see. To see, I must lay grievances |
| W1:91.1 | It is important to remember that miracles and | vision necessarily go together. This needs repeating and frequent |
| W1:91.1 | The miracle is always there. Its presence is not caused by your | vision; its absence is not the result of your failure to see. It is |
| W1:100.5 | to take the part that is essential to God's plan as well as to our | vision. Sadness is the sign that you would play another part instead |
| W1:108.1 | Vision depends upon today's idea. The light is in it, for it | |
| W1:108.2 | True light which makes true | vision possible is not the light the body's eyes behold. It is a |
| W1:108.3 | This is the light which shows no opposites, and | vision, being healed, has power to heal. This is the light that |
| W1:108.6 | behind it can be generalized to other areas of doubt and double | vision. And from there it will extend and finally arrive at the one |
| W1:108.7 | peace returns to us. Light is tranquility, and in that peace is | vision given us and we can see. |
| W1:109.2 | This thought has power to wake the sleeping truth in you, whose | vision sees beyond appearances to that same truth in everyone and |
| W1:110.2 | need to let complete correction heal your mind and give you perfect | vision which will heal all the mistakes that any mind has made at any |
| W1:125.9 | today lift you above the thinking of the world and free your | vision from the body's eyes. Only be still and listen. You will hear |
| W1:133.10 | hidden goals. And though he tries to keep its halo clear within his | vision, yet must he perceive its tarnished edges and its rusted core. |
| W1:151.10 | you have placed in pain, disaster, suffering, and loss. He gives you | vision which can look beyond these grim appearances and can behold |
| W1:157.5 | fingertips to those you touch and blesses those you look upon. A | vision reaches everyone you meet, and everyone you think of, or who |
| W1:157.6 | will be sanctified today, its only purpose being now to bring the | vision of what you experience this day to light the world. We cannot |
| W1:157.6 | world. We cannot give experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a | vision in our eyes which we can offer everyone that he may come the |
| W1:157.7 | And you who bring it light will come to see the light more sure, the | vision more distinct. |
| W1:157.9 | unaware of everything except His shining face and perfect Love. The | vision of His face will stay with you, but there will be an instant |
| W1:157.9 | stay with you, but there will be an instant which transcends all | vision, even this, the holiest. This you will never teach, for you |
| W1:157.9 | will never teach, for you attained it not through learning. Yet the | vision speaks of your remembrance of what you knew that instant and |
| W1:158.2 | in the text. Experience cannot be shared directly in the way that | vision can. The revelation that the Father and the Son are one will |
| W1:158.5 | not learn it. It revealed itself to him at its appointed time. But | vision is his gift. This he can give directly, for Christ's knowledge |
| W1:158.5 | give directly, for Christ's knowledge is not lost because He has a | vision He can give to anyone who asks. The Father's Will and His are |
| W1:158.5 | The Father's Will and His are joined in knowledge. Yet there is a | vision which the Holy Spirit sees because the mind of Christ beholds |
| W1:158.6 | what needs to be accomplished. Our concern is with Christ's | vision. This we can attain. |
| W1:158.7 | Christ's | vision has one law. It does not look upon a body and mistake it for |
| W1:158.9 | Thus are his sins forgiven him, for Christ has | vision which has power to overlook them all. In His forgiveness, they |
| W1:158.9 | they are gone. Unseen by One, they merely disappear because a | vision of the holiness which lies beyond them comes to take their |
| W1:158.10 | Thus do you learn to give as you receive. And thus Christ's | vision looks on you as well. This lesson is not difficult to learn if |
| W1:158.10 | brother whom you meet today provides another chance to let Christ's | vision shine on you and offer you the peace of God. |
| W1:158.11 | the eyes of Christ today. And by the holy gifts we give, Christ's | vision looks upon ourselves as well. |
| W1:159.3 | Christ's | vision is a miracle. It comes from far beyond itself, for it reflects |
| W1:159.3 | rebirth of love which never died but has been kept obscure. Christ's | vision pictures Heaven, for it sees a world so like to Heaven that |
| W1:159.4 | Christ's | vision is the miracle in which all miracles are born. It is their |
| W1:159.5 | Christ's | vision is the bridge between the worlds. And in its power can you |
| W1:159.5 | the light that shines beyond them. Holiness has been restored to | vision, and the blind can see. |
| W1:159.8 | Christ's | vision is the holy ground in which the lilies of forgiveness set |
| W1:159.10 | Let us an instant dream with Him. His dream awakens us to truth. His | vision gives the means for a return to our unlost and everlasting |
| W1:160.9 | Christ has come to search the world for what belongs to Him. His | vision sees no strangers, but beholds His own and joyously unites |
| W1:161.6 | body, for its sight presents the symbol of love's “enemy” Christ's | vision does not see. The body is the target for attack, for no one |
| W1:161.9 | love, and God created perfect. This is his reality. And in Christ's | vision is his loveliness reflected in a form so holy and so beautiful |
| W1:161.11 | readiness is closer now, and you will come today nearer Christ's | vision. If you are intent on reaching it, you will succeed today. And |
| W1:162.4 | sharing is unlimited. And thus you learn to think with God. Christ's | vision has restored your sight by salvaging your mind. |
| W1:164.6 | Brothers, this day is sacred to the world. Your | vision, given you from far beyond all things within the world, looks |
| W1:164.8 | looks on us and offer it the freedom given us through His forgiving | vision, now our own. Open the curtain in your practicing by merely |
| W1:164.9 | Is not this purpose worthy to be yours? Is not Christ's | vision worthy to be sought above the world's unsatisfying goals? Let |
| W1:165.5 | What would induce you now to let it fade away from your ecstatic | vision? For this sight proves that you have exchanged your blindness |
| W1:166.11 | answered, and the sight that looked upon it now has been replaced by | vision which perceives that you are not what you pretend to be. One |
| W1:167.12 | thing reflected and the light which makes reflection possible. No | vision now is needed. For the wakened mind is one that knows its |
| W1:168.4 | Him now to give the means by which this world will disappear, and | vision first will come with knowledge but an instant later. For in |
| W1:170.12 | by its weight; beheld not in its sightless eyes but in the | vision that your choice restored to you. |
| W1:I2.2 | horizons and direct approaches to the special blocks which keep your | vision narrow and too limited to let you see the value of our goal. |
| W1:181.2 | but this focus, and what you behold will change accordingly. Your | vision now will shift to give support to the intent which has |
| W1:181.8 | seek for long range goals. As each obstruction seems to block the | vision of our sinlessness, we seek but for surcease an instant from |
| W1:184.4 | This is the way reality is made by partial | vision, purposefully set against the given truth. Its enemy is |
| W1:184.4 | things and looks upon them. And a lack of space, a sense of unity or | vision which sees differently become the threats which it must |
| W1:184.5 | Yet does this other | vision still remain a natural direction for the mind to channel its |
| W1:188.2 | he beholds in him? It is not difficult to look within, for there all | vision starts. There is no sight, be it of dreams or from a truer |
| W1:188.2 | truer source, that is not but the shadow of the seen through inward | vision. There perception starts, and there it ends. It has no source |
| W1:188.3 | and valueless. It brings renewal to all tired hearts and lights all | vision as it passes by. All of its gifts are given everyone, and |
| W1:188.5 | In quietness is it acknowledged universally. For what your inward | vision looks upon is your perception of the universe. |
| W1:192.6 | With anger gone, you will indeed perceive that for Christ's | vision and the gift of sight no sacrifice was asked, and only pain |
| W1:193.2 | he has a need for One Who can correct his erring sight and give him | vision that will lead him back to where perception ceases. God does |
| W1:198.14 | the Son is to perceive no more and only know the Father? In this | vision of the Son, so brief that not an instant stands between this |
| W1:198.14 | between this single sight and timelessness itself, you see the | vision of yourself and then you disappear forever into God. |
| W1:198.15 | nearer to the end of everything that yet would stand between this | vision and our sight. And we are glad that we have come this far and |
| W1:218.1 | [198] Only my condemnation injures me. My condemnation keeps my | vision dark, and through my sightless eyes I cannot see the vision of |
| W1:218.1 | keeps my vision dark, and through my sightless eyes I cannot see the | vision of my glory. Yet today I can behold this glory and be glad. I |
| W2:I.6 | Accept these little gifts of thanks from us, as through Christ's | vision we behold a world beyond the one we made and take that world |
| W2:247.1 | I will suffer. For forgiveness is the only means whereby Christ's | vision comes to me. Let me accept what His sight shows me as the |
| W2:260.1 | my Identity. And let my sinlessness arise again before Christ's | vision, through which I would look upon my brothers and myself today. |
| W2:263.2 | outside the gate of Heaven, let us look on all we see through holy | vision and the eyes of Christ. Let all appearances seem pure to us |
| W2:269.2 | Today our sight is blessed indeed. We share one | vision as we look upon the face of Him Whose Self is ours. We are one |
| W2:270.1 | Father, Christ's | vision is Your gift to me, and it has power to translate all that the |
| W2:271.2 | Father, Christ's | vision is the way to You. What He beholds invites Your memory to be |
| W2:290.1 | see. Eyes that begin to open see at last. And I would have Christ's | vision come to me this very day. What I perceive without God's own |
| W2:291.1 | Christ's | vision looks through me today. His sight shows me all things forgiven |
| W2:291.1 | sight shows me all things forgiven and at peace and offers this same | vision to the world. And I accept this vision in its name, both for |
| W2:291.1 | at peace and offers this same vision to the world. And I accept this | vision in its name, both for myself and for the world as well. What |
| W2:302.1 | our own imagining and light is there for us to look upon. Christ's | vision changes darkness into light, for fear must disappear when love |
| W2:304.1 | Nor can I behold the holy sights Christ looks upon unless it is His | vision that I use. Perception is a mirror, not a fact. And what I |
| W2:305.1 | Who uses but Christ's | vision finds a peace so deep and quiet, undisturbable and wholly |
| W2:306.1 | What but Christ's | vision would I use today when it can offer me a day in which I see a |
| W2:312.1 | Having judged, you therefore see what you would look upon. For | vision merely serves to offer you what you would have. It is |
| W2:313.1 | Father, there is a | vision which beholds all things as sinless, so that fear has gone and |
| W2:313.1 | is love invited in. And love will come wherever it is asked. This | vision is Your gift. The eyes of Christ look on a world forgiven. In |
| W2:313.2 | join with me today. We save the world when we are joined. For in our | vision it becomes as holy as the light in us. |
| W2:340.1 | is done. For he will hear Your Voice directing him to find Christ's | vision through forgiveness and be free forever from all suffering. |

| Tx:4.56 | If you cannot hear the | Voice of God, it is because you do not choose to listen. The fact |
| Tx:4.56 | you do not choose to listen. The fact that you do listen to the | voice of your ego is demonstrated by your attitudes, your feelings, |
| Tx:5.15 | in any way. [Third, it is an unequivocal call to love. Every other | voice is still.] |
| Tx:5.19 | to it. The Holy Spirit is in you in a very literal sense. His is the | Voice that calls you back to where you were before and will be again. |
| Tx:5.20 | It is possible even in this world to hear only that | Voice and no other. It takes effort and great willingness to learn. |
| Tx:5.20 | and God's Sons are as equal as learners as they are as Souls. The | Voice of the Holy Spirit is the call to Atonement or the restoration |
| Tx:5.22 | you are part of Him. When you chose to leave Him, He gave you a | Voice to speak for Him because He could no longer share His knowledge |
| Tx:5.22 | Direct communication was broken because you had made another | voice through another will. The Holy Spirit calls you both to |
| Tx:5.23 | His Children comfortless, even though they chose to leave Him. The | voice they put in their minds was not the voice of His Will for which |
| Tx:5.23 | chose to leave Him. The voice they put in their minds was not the | voice of His Will for which the Holy Spirit speaks. The call to |
| Tx:5.24 | The | Voice of the Holy Spirit does not command, because it is incapable of |

| Tx:5.26 | the call of both is in your will and therefore in your mind. The | Voice for God comes from your own altars to Him. These altars are not |
| Tx:5.28 | it changed me. This mind is unequivocal, because it hears only one | voice and answers in only one way. You are the light of the world |
| Tx:5.29 | to listen as I am teaching you. When you are tempted by the wrong | voice, call on me to remind you how to heal by sharing my decision |
| Tx:5.30 | grown vaguely aware of the fact that there is another way or another | Voice. Having given this invitation to the Holy Spirit, I could come |
| Tx:5.35 | The | Voice of the Holy Spirit is weak in you. That is why you must share |
| Tx:5.47 | Nothing good is lost because it comes from the Holy Spirit, the | Voice for creation. Nothing that is not good was ever created and |
| Tx:5.50 | when we said it is possible even in this world to listen to one | voice. If you are part of God and the Sonship is one, you cannot be |
| Tx:5.52 | I heard one | voice because I had learned that learning is attained by teaching. I |
| Tx:5.52 | understood that I could not atone for myself alone. Listening to one | voice means the will to share the voice in order to hear it yourself. |
| Tx:5.52 | for myself alone. Listening to one voice means the will to share the | voice in order to hear it yourself. The mind that was in me is still |
| Tx:5.62 | a delusional system, and it speaks for it. Listening to the ego's | voice means that you believe it is possible to attack God. You |
| Tx:5.80 | built it. The case may be foolproof, but it is not God-proof. The | Voice for God will not hear it at all because He can only witness |
| Tx:5.81 | is that of our Father, from Whom I learned of infinite patience. His | Voice was in me as it is in you, speaking for patience towards the |
| Tx:5.85 | nature of the Holy Spirit's set is the basis for His unequivocal | Voice. The Holy Spirit never changes His Mind. Clarity of thought |
| Tx:5.90 | Do you really believe you can make a | voice that can drown out His? Do you really believe that you can |
| Tx:5.90 | He careth for you. You are His care because He loves you. His | Voice reminds you always that all hope is yours because of His care. |
| Tx:5.92 | insane calls which you think are made upon you when you know the | Voice of God Himself is in you? God commended His Spirit to you and |
| Tx:6.11 | am sorry when my brothers do not share my decision to hear only one | voice, because it weakens them as teachers and as learners. Yet I |
| Tx:6.14 | When you hear only one | voice, you are never called on to sacrifice. On the contrary, by |
| Tx:6.16 | God the Father and His separated Sons. If you will listen to His | Voice, you will know that you cannot either hurt or be hurt and that |
| Tx:6.28 | because its abilities are directed by the mind which has a better | Voice. The Holy Spirit as well as the ego utilizes projection, but |
| Tx:6.56 | A harsh and strident form of communication arose as the ego's | voice. It could not shatter the peace of God, but it could shatter |
| Tx:6.58 | How can you wake children better and more kindly than by a gentle | Voice that will not frighten them but will merely remind them that |
| Tx:6.74 | the thinker. Meanwhile, the increasing clarity of the Holy Spirit's | Voice makes it impossible for the learner not to listen. For a time, |
| Tx:6.75 | it. Yet you do want peace, or you would not have called upon the | Voice for Peace to help you. His lesson is not insane; the conflict |
| Tx:6.76 | The ego tries to persuade you that it is up to you to decide which | voice is true, but the Holy Spirit teaches you that truth was created |
| Tx:6.76 | it. As you begin to realize the quiet power of the Holy Spirit's | Voice and its perfect consistency, it must dawn on your minds that |
| Tx:6.91 | creations are beyond belief, because they are beyond question. The | Voice for God speaks only for belief beyond question, which is the |
| Tx:7.32 | this is possible is to believe you can do it. This can only be the | voice of the ego. |
| Tx:7.33 | come from the same Source, [because] inspiration comes from the | Voice for God, and certainty comes from the laws of God. Healing does |
| Tx:7.33 | Yet healing is [nevertheless] of God, because it proceeds from His | Voice and from His laws. It is their result, in a state of mind which |
| Tx:7.46 | real. Healing can be counted on, because it is inspired by His | Voice and is in accord with His laws. Yet if healing is consistence, |
| Tx:7.65 | belief that you accept which is apart from this will obscure God's | Voice in you and will therefore obscure God to you. Unless you |
| Tx:7.105 | for you by the Will of God, Who has not left you comfortless. His | Voice will teach you how to distinguish between pain and joy and will |
| Tx:8.3 | The ego's | voice is an hallucination. You cannot expect it to say, “I am not |
| Tx:8.10 | never God who coerces you because He shares His Will with you. His | Voice teaches only His Will, but that is not the Holy Spirit's lesson |
| Tx:8.15 | call of God. This is the natural response of every Son of God to the | Voice of his Creator, because it is the Voice for his creations and |
| Tx:8.15 | of every Son of God to the Voice of his Creator, because it is the | Voice for his creations and for his own extension. |
| Tx:8.28 | My will is His, and your will to hear me is the decision to hear His | Voice and abide in His Will. As God sent me to you, so will I send |
| Tx:8.41 | illusions of another direction can obscure the one for which God's | Voice speaks in all of us. Never accord the ego the power to |
| Tx:8.57 | Himself is to reach beyond the Kingdom to its Creator through His | Voice, which He has established as part of you. |
| Tx:8.61 | In this sense, the body does become a temple to God, because His | Voice abides in it by directing the use to which it is put. |
| Tx:8.78 | You might well ask how the | voice of something which does not exist can be so insistent. Have you |
| Tx:8.78 | When you lay the ego aside, it will be gone. The Holy Spirit's | Voice is as loud as your willingness to listen. It cannot be louder |
| Tx:8.79 | the guidance of the one Teacher Who knows what life is, being the | Voice for Life Itself. |
| Tx:8.111 | you receive. Remember that the Holy Spirit is in him, and His | Voice speaks to you through him. What can so holy a brother tell you |
| Tx:8.112 | extends from your mind to his and answers you. You cannot hear the | Voice for God in yourself alone because you are not alone. And His |
| Tx:8.112 | be for your brother because it is for you. Would God have created a | Voice for you alone? Could you hear His answer except as He answers |
| Tx:8.113 | me through you. If you would hear me, hear my brothers in whom God's | Voice speaks. The answer to all prayers lies in them. You will be |
| Tx:9.57 | your eternal place merely waits for your return. God, through His | Voice, reminds you of it, and God Himself keeps your extensions safe |
| Tx:9.69 | in the way of your remembering, for God is in your memory, and His | Voice will tell you that you are part of Him when you are willing to |
| Tx:9.84 | find peace. And this altar is in you, because God put it there. His | Voice still calls you to return, and He will be heard when you place |
| Tx:9.91 | Because the miracle worker has heard Him, he strengthens His | Voice in a sick brother by weakening his belief in sickness, which he |
| Tx:10.15 | to trust the Holy Spirit only because He speaks for you. He is the | Voice for God, but never forget that God did not will to be alone. He |
| Tx:10.19 | wants to make whole. And this willingness opens his own ears to the | Voice of the Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He will enable |
| Tx:10.20 | because He will not be heard. The Eternal Guest remains, but His | Voice grows faint in alien company. He needs your protection, but |
| Tx:10.35 | enter God's Presence if you attack His Son. When His Son lifts his | voice in praise of his Creator, he will hear the Voice of his Father. |
| Tx:10.35 | His Son lifts his voice in praise of his Creator, he will hear the | Voice of his Father. Yet the Creator cannot be praised without His |
| Tx:10.58 | Christ to you, you spoke not of Christ to him. You hear but your own | voice, and if Christ speaks through you, you will hear Him. |
| Tx:11.75 | teaching. For as long as you feel guilty, you are listening to the | voice of the ego, which tells you that you have been treacherous to |
| Tx:11.80 | placed in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot lose it. A | Voice will answer every question you ask, and a Vision will correct |
| Tx:12.38 | calls you and you do not hear, for you are preoccupied with your own | voice. And the vision of Christ is not in your sight, for you look |
| Tx:12.52 | witness to his wholeness, as I am calling you to join with me. Every | voice has a part in the song of redemption, the hymn of gladness and |
| Tx:12.76 | hymn alone. My task is not completed until I have lifted every | voice with mine. And yet it is not mine, for as it is my gift to you, |

| Tx:14.71 | His Oneness and His Son's. Listen in silence, and do not raise your | voice against Him. For He teaches the miracle of oneness, and before |
| Tx:15.6 | to take the life of someone who hears it temporarily as the only | voice, it speaks of hell even to him. For it tells him hell is here |
| Tx:15.75 | and will be afraid to hear the Holy Spirit, recognizing in His | voice your own need to communicate. The Holy Spirit cannot teach |
| Tx:16.18 | and share it], for that is the only reason He has called to you. His | Voice has spoken clearly, and yet you have so little faith in what |
| Tx:19.84 | the light of truth, the answer to the Answer, the silencer of the | Voice that speaks for God. Yet the retreat to death is not the end of |

| Tx:21.49 | to discover than what you would prefer to overlook. The still small | Voice for God is not drowned out by all the ego's raucous screams and |
| Tx:21.49 | this choice depends far more than you may realize as yet. For on the | voice you choose to hear and on the sights you choose to see, depends |
| Tx:21.51 | There is another vision and another | Voice in which your freedom lies awaiting but your choice. And if you |
| Tx:21.63 | must be joined must be insane. Nor could you see it if you heard the | voice of reason. What can there be that stands between what is |
| Tx:23.42 | lovely and charitable it may seem to be, a blessing and a sign the | Voice for God speaks through you to your brother? The wrapping does |
| Tx:24.15 | before its “mightiness.” You strain your ears to hear its soundless | voice, and yet the Call of God Himself is soundless to you. |
| Tx:24.16 | You can defend your specialness, but never will you hear the | Voice for God beside it. They speak a different language and they |
| Tx:24.53 | all it looks upon. And that is made, not of itself, but through the | Voice that speaks for God in everything that lives and shares His |
| Tx:24.61 | be sure you understand what made this judgment. Here is the | voice of specialness heard clearly, judging against the Christ and |
| Tx:24.62 | deny to what he loves. And while it calls to him, he hears no other | Voice. No effort is too great, no cost too much, no price too dear to |
| Tx:26.29 | with them. For no one hears the song of Heaven and remains without a | voice that adds its power to the song and makes it sweeter still. And |
| Tx:26.29 | magnitude of song in which the universe has joined with but a single | voice. This tiny spot of sin that stands between you still is holding |
| Tx:26.37 | and place affect a change in where he really is? The unforgiven is a | voice that calls out from a past forever more gone by. And everything |
| Tx:26.77 | Think but how holy you must be from whom the | Voice for God calls lovingly unto your brother, that you may awake in |
| Tx:26.77 | God calls lovingly unto your brother, that you may awake in him the | Voice that answers to your call! And think how holy he must be when |
| Tx:27.44 | you. He does not speak to someone else. Yet by your listening, His | Voice extends because you have accepted what He says. |
| Tx:27.54 | Pain demonstrates the body must be real. It is a loud, obscuring | voice whose shrieks would silence what the Holy Spirit says and keep |
| Tx:27.73 | his awaking and allowed his calmer mind to welcome, not to fear, the | Voice that calls with love to waken him. [A gentler dream, in which |
| Tx:28.56 | its acts but not your own. It sees and acts for you. It hears your | voice. And it is frail and little by your wish. It seems to punish |
| Tx:29.33 | abides in him, as it abides in you. Be very still and hear God's | Voice in him and let It tell you what his function is. He was created |
| Tx:29.51 | Let Him remind you of His love for you, and do not seek to drown His | Voice in chants of deep despair to idols of yourself. Seek not |
| Tx:29.55 | kept apart? What hand could be held up to block God's way? Whose | voice could make demand He enter not? The “more-than-everything” is |
| Tx:30.31 | without some form of union, be it with a dream of judgment or the | Voice for God. Decisions cause results because they are not made in |
| Tx:30.35 | established there. Now hear God speak to you through Him Who is His | Voice and yours as well, reminding you that it is not your will to |
| Tx:31.4 | accomplishment of learning—an enormity so great the Holy Spirit's | Voice seems small and still before its magnitude. The world began |
| Tx:31.5 | Now does your ancient overlearning stand implacable before the | Voice of truth and teach you that Its lessons are not true, too hard |
| Tx:31.6 | Is this a little | Voice, so small and still It cannot rise above the senseless noise of |
| Tx:31.6 | willed not His Son forget Him. And the power of His Will is in the | Voice that speaks for Him. Which lesson will you learn? What outcome |
| Tx:31.17 | and you join with him, and in your answer is salvation found. The | voice you hear in him is but your own. What does he ask you for? And |
| Tx:31.17 | will come to you because you see an image of yourself and hear your | voice requesting what you want. |
| Tx:31.21 | and hearing but one answer to them all. Because He hears one | Voice, He cannot hear a different answer from the one He gave when |
| Tx:31.93 | the Christ in him. My brothers in salvation, do not fail to hear my | voice and listen to my words. I ask for nothing but your own release. |
| W1:47.3 | God is your safety in every circumstance. His | Voice speaks for Him in all situations and in every aspect of all |
| W1:47.3 | There are no exceptions because God has no exceptions. And the | Voice Which speaks for Him thinks as He does. |
| W1:49.1 | It is quite possible to listen to God's | Voice all through the day without interrupting your regular |
| W1:49.2 | The part that is listening to the | Voice of God is calm, always at rest, and wholly certain. It is |
| W1:49.2 | your mind where stillness and peace reign forever. Try to hear God's | Voice call to you lovingly, reminding you that your Creator has not |
| W1:49.3 | periods today and more if possible. We will try actually to hear the | Voice reminding you of God and of your Self. We will approach this |
| W1:49.3 | are joining our will with the Will of God. He wants you to hear His | Voice. He gave It to you to be heard. |
| W1:49.5 | your eyes on the world and realizing that you are inviting God's | Voice to speak to you. |
| W1:60.5 | [49] God's | Voice speaks to me all through the day. There is not a moment in |
| W1:60.5 | to me all through the day. There is not a moment in which God's | Voice ceases to call on my forgiveness to save me. There is not a |
| W1:60.5 | on my forgiveness to save me. There is not a moment in which His | Voice fails to direct my thoughts, guide my actions, and lead my |
| W1:60.5 | on toward truth. There is nowhere else I can go, because God's | Voice is the only voice and the only guide that has been given to His |
| W1:60.5 | There is nowhere else I can go, because God's Voice is the only | voice and the only guide that has been given to His Son. |
| W1:60.6 | [50] I am sustained by the Love of God. As I listen to God's | Voice, I am sustained by His Love. As I open my eyes, His love lights |
| W1:61.3 | humility requires that you accept today's idea because it is God's | Voice Which tells you it is true. This is a beginning step in |
| W1:66.10 | Thus it must be that your function is established by God through His | Voice or is made by the ego which you have made to replace Him. Which |
| W1:66.12 | proposed. Yet the ego is the only alternative to the Holy Spirit's | Voice. You will listen to madness or hear the truth. Try to make this |
| W1:67.8 | in the shorter practice periods that this is not your tiny solitary | voice that tells you this. This is the Voice for God reminding you of |
| W1:67.8 | is not your tiny solitary voice that tells you this. This is the | Voice for God reminding you of your Father and of your Self. This is |
| W1:67.8 | for God reminding you of your Father and of your Self. This is the | Voice of truth replacing everything that the ego tells you about |
| W1:71.12 | He will answer you in proportion to your willingness to hear His | Voice. Refuse not to hear. The very fact that you are doing the |
| W1:72.8 | grievances against Him and His creation, that you may not hear the | Voice of truth and welcome it as Friend. Your chosen savior takes His |
| W1:72.14 | shouted our grievances so loudly that we have not listened to His | Voice. We have used our grievances to close our eyes and stop our |
| W1:76.10 | beliefs today and hold your mind in silent readiness to hear the | Voice that speaks the truth to you. You will be listening to One Who |
| W1:76.12 | extend through us to Him. Thus is creation endlessly increased. His | Voice will speak of this to us, as well as of the joys of Heaven |
| W1:95.20 | as possible and understand each time you do so, someone hears the | voice of hope, the stirring of the truth within his mind, the gentle |
| W1:96.8 | way to peace. Salvation is a thought you share with God, because His | Voice accepted it for you and answered in your name that it was done. |
| W1:97.5 | you are the Spirit that abides in Him, and Which calls through His | Voice to every living thing; offers His sight to everyone who asks; |
| W1:101.4 | not flee salvation and attempt in every way he can to drown the | Voice Which offers it to him? Why would he try to listen and accept |
| W1:105.10 | peace and joy are mine,” and close your eyes a while, and let His | Voice assure you that the words you speak are true. |
| W1:106.1 | If you will lay aside the ego's | voice, however loudly it may seem to call; if you will not accept its |
| W1:106.1 | has not told you what salvation is; then you will hear the mighty | Voice of truth, quiet in power, strong in stillness, and completely |
| W1:106.2 | Listen and hear your Father speak to you through His appointed | Voice, Which silences the thunder of the meaningless and shows the |
| W1:106.3 | Hear only Him today, and do not wait to reach Him longer. Hear one | Voice today. |
| W1:106.5 | sleep and cannot see. God calls to them through you. He needs your | voice to speak to them, for who could reach God's Son except his |
| W1:106.6 | Hear Him today, and offer Him your | voice to speak to all the multitudes who wait to hear the Word that |
| W1:106.7 | Listen today, and you will hear a | Voice Which will resound throughout the world through you. The |
| W1:106.13 | still and listen to the truth. I am the messenger of God today. My | voice is His, to give what I receive. |
| W1:109.4 | and come to you because you rest in God. They will not hear another | voice but yours because you gave your voice to God and now you rest |
| W1:109.4 | They will not hear another voice but yours because you gave your | voice to God and now you rest in Him and let Him speak through you. |
| W1:118.3 | [106] Let me be still and listen to the truth. Let mine own feeble | voice be still, and let me hear the mighty Voice of truth itself |
| W1:118.3 | Let mine own feeble voice be still, and let me hear the mighty | Voice of truth itself assure me that I am God's perfect Son. |
| W1:123.5 | An unheard message will not save the world, however mighty be the | Voice that speaks, however loving may the message be. Thanks be to |
| W1:123.5 | be to you who heard, for you become the messenger who brings His | Voice with you and let it echo round and round the world. |
| W1:124.8 | nor special words to guide your meditation. We will trust God's | Voice to speak as He sees fit today, certain He will not fail. Abide |
| W1:125.3 | In stillness we will hear God's | Voice today without intrusion of our petty thoughts, without our |
| W1:125.4 | Hear, holy Son of God, your Father speak. His | Voice would give to you His holy Word to spread across the world the |
| W1:125.6 | Today He speaks to you. His | Voice awaits your silence, for His Word cannot be heard until your |
| W1:125.6 | called upon today to help make ready your most holy mind to hear the | Voice of its Creator speak. |
| W1:125.7 | the Word of God. He speaks from nearer than your heart to you. His | Voice is closer than your hand. His Love is everything you are and |
| W1:125.8 | It is your | voice to which you listen as He speaks to you. It is your Word He |
| W1:126.10 | what it really means. Be willing to be taught. Be glad to hear the | Voice of truth and healing speak to you, and you will understand the |
| W1:127.5 | Yet it is perfectly apparent to eyes that see and ears that hear its | Voice. |
| W1:127.8 | Call to your Father, certain that His | Voice will answer. He Himself has promised this. And He Himself will |
| W1:127.8 | love. In loving gentleness, He will abide with you as you allow His | Voice to teach love's meaning to your clean and open mind. And He |
| W1:135.27 | can still have value when you have received your function from the | Voice of God Himself? |
| W1:140.10 | in whatever form they took. We will be still and listen for the | Voice of healing which will cure all ills as one, restoring saneness |
| W1:140.10 | will cure all ills as one, restoring saneness to the Son of God. No | voice but this can cure. Today we hear a single Voice which speaks to |
| W1:140.10 | the Son of God. No voice but this can cure. Today we hear a single | Voice which speaks to us of truth where all illusions end, and peace |
| W1:R4.10 | with the meaning God has given it as it was given to you through His | Voice. Let each idea that you review that day give you the gift which |
| W1:151.3 | and think more real than what is witnessed to by the eternal | Voice of God Himself. |
| W1:151.6 | Hear not its | voice. The witnesses it sends to prove to you its evil is your own |
| W1:151.6 | their evidence will clear the way to recognize yourself and let the | Voice for God alone be Judge of what is worthy of your own belief. |
| W1:151.8 | is meaningless before Its face. Christ cannot doubt Himself. The | Voice of God can only honor Him, rejoicing in His perfect, |
| W1:151.12 | within the Holy, holy as Itself. In everyone and everything, His | Voice would speak to you of nothing but your Self and your Creator, |
| W1:151.12 | everything and hear in everything no sound except the echo of God's | Voice. |
| W1:151.15 | lesson of his sanctity. No one can fail to listen when you hear the | Voice for God give honor to God's Son. And everyone will share the |
| W1:152.15 | began, concluding it with this same invitation to your Self. God's | Voice will answer, for He speaks for you and for your Father. He will |
| W1:153.17 | Love. And we will quietly sit by and wait on Him and listen to His | Voice and learn what He would have us do the hour that is yet to |
| W1:153.18 | practice, you will never cease to think of Him and hear His loving | Voice guiding your footsteps into quiet ways where you will walk in |
| W1:154.2 | Whatever your appointed role may be, it was selected by the | Voice for God, Whose function is to speak for you as well. Seeing |
| W1:154.2 | but He is not deceived in what you are and listens only to His | Voice in you. |
| W1:154.3 | It is through His ability to hear One | Voice Which is His own that you become aware at last there is One |
| W1:154.3 | Voice Which is His own that you become aware at last there is One | Voice in you. And that One Voice appoints your function and relays it |
| W1:154.3 | you become aware at last there is One Voice in you. And that One | Voice appoints your function and relays it to you, giving you the |
| W1:154.4 | It is this joining through the | Voice of God of Father and of Son that sets apart salvation from the |
| W1:154.4 | and of Son that sets apart salvation from the world. It is this | Voice which speaks of laws the world does not obey, which promises |
| W1:154.10 | keep our minds apart from Him Who speaks for us, for it is but our | voice we hear as we attend Him. He alone can speak to us and for us, |
| W1:154.10 | we attend Him. He alone can speak to us and for us, joining in One | Voice the getting and the giving of God's Word, the giving and |
| W1:154.11 | He would have that we may recognize His gifts to us. He needs our | voice that He may speak through us. He needs our hands to hold His |
| W1:160.8 | He has answered you who ask, “Who is the stranger?” Hear His | Voice assure you, quietly and sure, that you are not a stranger to |
| W1:161.1 | passed safely by, and Heaven now restored. Here is the answer of the | Voice of God. |
| W1:161.7 | hatred rests upon a thing, it calls for death as surely as God's | Voice proclaims there is no death. Fear is insatiable, consuming |
| W1:161.15 | And He will answer Whom you called upon, for He will hear the | Voice of God in you and answer in your own. Behold him now whom you |
| W1:164.1 | faintly, for beyond them all He hears the song of Heaven and the | Voice of God more clear, more meaningful, more near. |
| W1:164.2 | call to you. Christ answers for you, echoing your Self, using your | voice to give His glad consent, accepting your deliverance for you. |
| W1:168.3 | final step Himself. All steps but this we learn, instructed by His | Voice. But finally He comes Himself and takes us in His arms and |
| W1:168.6 | we pray today, returning but the words He gave to us through His Own | Voice, His Word, His Love: |
| W1:169.3 | mind can hear the call to waken. It is not shut tight against God's | Voice. It has become aware that there are things it does not know and |
| W1:170.13 | do your eyes belong to Christ, and He looks through them. Now your | voice belongs to God and echoes His. And now your heart remains at |
| W1:R5.11 | will hear the words I speak and give them to the world. You are my | voice, my eyes, my feet, my hands, through which I save the world. |
| W1:171.2 | [151] All things are echoes of the | Voice of God. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:182.1 | a place that called you to return, although you do not recognize the | Voice nor what it is the Voice reminds you of. Yet still you feel an |
| W1:182.1 | return, although you do not recognize the Voice nor what it is the | Voice reminds you of. Yet still you feel an alien here, from |
| W1:182.5 | His Father. He desires to go home so deeply, so unceasingly, His | voice cries unto you to let Him rest a while. He does not ask for |
| W1:182.6 | home. He is so little that He seems so easily shut out, His tiny | Voice so readily obscured, His calls for help almost unheard amid the |
| W1:182.7 | His patience has no limits. He will wait until you hear His gentle | Voice within you, calling you to let Him go in peace along with you |
| W1:182.8 | cease to have value in your restless mind, then will you hear His | Voice. So poignantly He calls to you that you will not resist Him |
| W1:182.12 | It is for this you yearn. This is your heart's desire. This is the | Voice you hear, and this the Call which cannot be denied. The holy |
| W1:183.12 | but the Son of God who calls upon his Father. And his Father's | Voice gives answer in his Father's holy Name. In this eternal, still |
| W1:186.4 | All false humility we lay aside today that we may listen to God's | Voice reveal to us what He would have us do. We do not doubt our |
| W1:186.5 | plan you did not make instead. Judge not your value to it. If God's | Voice assures you that salvation needs your part and that the whole |
| W1:186.5 | might affront their stance. Yet are the humble free to hear the | Voice which tells them what they are and what to do. |
| W1:186.6 | real. It is this image which quails and retreats in terror as the | Voice for God assures you that you have the strength, the wisdom, and |
| W1:186.7 | All this the | Voice for God relates to you. And as He speaks, the image trembles |
| W1:186.11 | doubt of its validity. It comes from One Who knows no error. And His | Voice is certain of its messages. They will not change nor be in |
| W1:186.12 | Do as His | Voice directs. And if it asks a thing of you that seems impossible, |
| W1:186.12 | denial. Then consider this—which is more likely to be right? The | Voice that speaks for the Creator of all things Who knows all things |
| W1:186.12 | bewildered, inconsistent and unsure of everything? Let not its | voice direct you. Hear instead a certain Voice Which tells you of a |
| W1:186.12 | of everything? Let not its voice direct you. Hear instead a certain | Voice Which tells you of a function given you by your Creator, Who |
| W1:186.13 | His gentle | Voice is calling from the known to the unknowing. He would comfort |
| W1:188.7 | came but to remind you how you must return. They heed your Father's | Voice when you refuse to listen. And they urge you gently to accept |
| W1:198.5 | with gratitude? And is it not a kindness to yourself to hear His | Voice and learn the simple lessons He would teach, instead of trying |
| W1:199.9 | I am not a body. I am free. I hear the | Voice that God has given me, and it is only this my mind obeys. |
| W1:202.1 | more where I do not belong, when God Himself has given me His | Voice to call me home? I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as |
| W2:I.4 | wait for Him to take the step to us that He has told us, through His | Voice, He would not fail to take when we invited Him. He has not left |
| W2:I.4 | with Him will now be spent. We say the words of invitation that His | Voice suggests, and then we wait for Him to come to us. |
| W2:221.1 | my heart, the deep recesses of my mind, I wait and listen for Your | Voice. My Father, speak to me today. I come to hear Your Voice in |
| W2:221.1 | for Your Voice. My Father, speak to me today. I come to hear Your | Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You will hear my |
| W2:226.2 | my home awaits my glad return. Your arms are open, and I hear Your | Voice. What need have I to linger in a place of vain desires and of |
| W2:237.2 | Christ is my eyes today, and His the ears which listen to the | Voice of God today. Father, I come to You through Him Who is Your Son |
| W2:WIW.4 | world. Follow His light and see the world as He beholds it. Hear His | Voice alone in all that speaks to you. And let Him give you peace and |
| W2:245.2 | give the message that we have received. And thus we come to hear the | Voice of God, Who speaks to us as we relate His Word, Whose Love we |
| W2:254.1 | Father, today I would but hear Your | Voice. In deepest silence, I would come to You to hear Your Voice and |
| W2:254.1 | Your Voice. In deepest silence, I would come to You to hear Your | Voice and to receive Your Word. I have no prayer but this: I come to |
| W2:256.2 | to You in Your appointed way. We have no goal except to hear Your | Voice and find the way Your sacred Word has pointed out to us. |
| W2:266.1 | be my saviors and my counselors in sight—the bearers of Your holy | Voice to me. In them are You reflected, and in them does Christ look |
| W2:267.1 | infuses me with strength. I am a messenger of God, directed by His | Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held forever quiet and at peace |
| W2:267.1 | Each heartbeat calls His Name, and every one is answered by His | Voice, assuring me I am at home in Him. |
| W2:271.1 | to look upon what Christ would have me see, to listen to God's | Voice, and seek the witnesses to what is true in God's creation. In |
| W2:275.1 | Let us today attend the | Voice of God, Which speaks an ancient lesson, no more true today than |
| W2:275.1 | seek and hear and learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For the | Voice of God tells us of things we cannot understand alone, nor learn |
| W2:275.1 | this that all things are protected. And in this the healing of the | Voice of God is found. |
| W2:275.2 | Your healing | Voice protects all things today, and so I leave all things to You. I |
| W2:275.2 | I leave all things to You. I need be anxious over nothing. For Your | Voice will tell me what to do and where to go, to whom to speak, and |
| W2:275.2 | to give the world. The safety that I bring is given me. Father, Your | Voice protects all things through me. |
| W2:WIHS.3 | yearns to have you recognize your sinlessness, you would not let His | Voice appeal in vain nor turn away from His replacement for the |
| W2:296.1 | The Holy Spirit needs my | voice today, that all the world may listen to Your Voice and hear |
| W2:296.1 | Spirit needs my voice today, that all the world may listen to Your | Voice and hear Your Word through me. I am resolved to let You speak |
| W2:296.1 | would set it free that I may find escape and hear the Word Your holy | Voice will speak to me today. |
| W2:300.2 | loving Sons, have lost our way a while. But we have listened to Your | Voice and learned exactly what to do to be restored to Heaven and our |
| W2:WISC.5 | that. It needs your eyes and ears and hands and feet. It needs your | voice. And most of all it needs your willingness. Let us rejoice that |
| W2:WILJ.1 | Christ's Second Coming gives the Son of God the gift to hear the | Voice for God proclaim that what is false is false and what is true |
| W2:WICR.5 | Our Father calls to us. We hear His | Voice, and we forgive creation in the name of its Creator, Holiness |
| W2:321.1 | look to find it. Father, I have searched in vain until I heard Your | Voice directing me. Now I would guide myself no more. For I have |
| W2:321.1 | me with my freedom as Your holy Son will not be lost to me. Your | Voice directs me. And the way to You is opening and clear to me at |
| W2:324.1 | I can but choose to wander off a while and then return. Your loving | Voice will always call me back and guide my feet aright. My brothers |
| W2:328.1 | for all things we perceive are upside-down until we listen to the | Voice of God. It seems that we will gain autonomy but by our striving |
| W2:334.1 | perception. Let me not accept such meager gifts again today. God's | Voice is offering the peace of God to all who hear and choose to |
| W2:339.2 | day. It is a day in which I would do nothing by myself but hear Your | Voice in everything I do; requesting only what You offer me, |
| W2:340.1 | Son will be redeemed. His suffering is done. For he will hear Your | Voice directing him to find Christ's vision through forgiveness and |
| W2:347.2 | Listen today. Be very still and hear the gentle | Voice for God assuring you that He has judged you as the Son He loves. |
| W2:WAI.4 | redeemed from every thought of sin. Ours are the ears that hear the | Voice of God proclaim the world as sinless. Ours the minds which join |
| W2:351.1 | way secure and clear. Choose, then, for me, my Father, through Your | Voice. For He alone gives judgment in Your Name. |
| W2:352.1 | memory of You and One Who leads me to it. Father, I would hear Your | Voice and find Your peace today. For I would love my own Identity and |
| W2:357.1 | holy Son is pointed out to me, first in my brother, then in me. Your | Voice instructs me patiently to hear Your Word and give as I receive. |
| W2:357.1 | give as I receive. And as I look upon Your Son today, I hear Your | Voice instructing me to find the way to You as You appointed that the |
| W2:358.1 | You speak for me. And what You give me comes from God Himself. Your | Voice, my Father, then is mine as well, and all I want is what You |
| W2:358.1 | chose that it be mine. Let me remember all I do not know, and let my | voice be still, remembering. But let me not forget Your Love and |
| W2:FL.6 | understand and ask Him to help us to learn His lessons through the | Voice of His own Teacher. Would He hurt His Son? Or would He rush to |
| W2:E.2 | Therefore, obey your will and follow Him Whom you accepted as your | Voice, to speak of what you really want and really need. His is the |
| W2:E.2 | Voice, to speak of what you really want and really need. His is the | Voice for God, and also yours. And thus He speaks of freedom and of |
| W2:E.3 | for there is no more need of them. Henceforth, hear but the | Voice for God and for your Self when you retire from the world, to |
| M:4.16 | to them. They hold His gifts and follow in His way because God's | Voice directs them in all things. Joy is their song of thanks. And |
| M:4.23 | of God as evil, so open-mindedness permits him to be judged by the | Voice for God on His behalf. As the projection of guilt upon him |
| M:5.9 | already given them. It is not their hands that heal. It is not their | voice that speaks the Word of God. They merely give what has been |
| M:5.10 | purpose and therefore are not really different. They seek for God's | Voice in this brother who would so deceive himself as to believe |
| M:8.5 | smaller one? Will he agree more quickly to the unreality of a louder | voice he hears than to that of a softer one? Will he dismiss more |
| M:9.2 | giving up of judgment, the obvious prerequisite for hearing God's | Voice, is usually a fairly slow process, not because it is difficult, |
| M:12.3 | is not understandable to the deluded. Only a very few can hear God's | Voice at all, and even they cannot communicate His messages directly |
| M:12.3 | who do not realize that they are spirit. A body they can see. A | voice they understand and listen to without the fear that truth would |
| M:12.4 | more and more certain that the body's function is but to let God's | Voice speak through it to human ears. And these ears will carry to |
| M:12.5 | give the body another purpose from the one that keeps it holy. God's | Voice will tell him when he has fulfilled his role, just as It tells |
| M:13.6 | other hope in all the world that they can trust. There is no other | voice in all the world that echoes God's. If you would sacrifice the |
| M:14.4 | willing to go in its direction. He need merely trust that, if God's | Voice tells him it is a lesson he can learn, he can learn it. He does |
| M:15.3 | teacher of God? Have you yet learned to stand aside and hear the | Voice of Judgment in yourself? Or do you still attempt to take His |
| M:15.3 | still attempt to take His role from Him? Learn to be quiet, for His | Voice is heard in stillness. And His Judgment comes to all who stand |
| M:25.2 | of the Holy Spirit, Whose Presence is always there and Whose | Voice is available but for the hearing. These limits are placed out |
| M:25.2 | the separate places of the world would fall at the holy sound of His | Voice. Who transcends these limits in any way is merely becoming more |
| M:26.3 | in bondage and still asleep, so that by their awakening can God's | Voice be heard. |
| M:28.6 | Word and understood its meaning. He is free because he let God's | Voice proclaim the truth. And all he sought before to crucify are |
| M:29.8 | Son He loves, and it is given you to be the means through which His | Voice is heard around the world to close all things of time, to end |

| Tx:4.71 | identification with which the ego feels safe, because the body's | vulnerability is its own best argument that you cannot be of God. |
| Tx:8.76 | that you can be hurt. It is a witness to your frailty, your | vulnerability, and your extreme need to depend on external guidance. |
| Tx:9.50 | kinds of threat to its existence. Its own profound sense of | vulnerability renders it incapable of judgment except in terms of |

| Tx:1.51 | truth, which can always withstand it. Only the error is really | vulnerable. You are free to establish your kingdom where you see fit, |
| Tx:1.53 | that he reinforces errors they have already made. This makes them | vulnerable to the distortions of others since their own perception of |
| Tx:2.62 | attempt to do so. The very fact that they are afraid has made them | vulnerable to miscreation. They are therefore likely to misunderstand |
| Tx:2.92 | know that thoughts can hurt them. Their own thoughts have made them | vulnerable. |
| Tx:2.95 | have done this if you were not afraid of your own thoughts. The | vulnerable are essentially miscreators because they misperceive |
| Tx:4.31 | therefore temporarily less predatory. This “self esteem” is always | vulnerable to stress, a term which actually refers to a condition in |
| Tx:6.19 | anyone misunderstand anything. Their own imperfect love made them | vulnerable to projection, and out of their own fear they spoke of the |
| Tx:7.73 | The picture you see of yourselves is deprived, unloving, and very | vulnerable. You cannot love this. Yet you can very easily escape from |
| Tx:8.62 | its purpose. A mind which has been blocked has allowed itself to be | vulnerable to attack because it has turned against itself. |
| Tx:9.78 | a sick god, self-created, self-sufficient, very vicious, and very | vulnerable. Is this the idol you would worship? Is this the image you |

| Tx:24.28 | It is not you that is so | vulnerable and open to attack that just a word, a little whisper that |
| Tx:27.7 | for guilt. Concerns about the body demonstrate how frail and | vulnerable is your life, how easily destroyed is what you love. |
| W1:26.2 | that you are not invulnerable. Attack thoughts therefore make you | vulnerable in your own mind, which is where the attack thoughts are. |
| W1:26.3 | yourself. If attack thoughts must entail the belief that you are | vulnerable, their effect is to weaken you in your own eyes. Thus they |
| W1:26.4 | attack you. Nothing except your thoughts can make you think you are | vulnerable. And nothing except your thoughts can prove to you this is |

| W1:75.9 | You have forgiven the world. He will be with you as you watch and | wait. He will show you what true vision sees. It is His Will, and you |
| W1:75.9 | what true vision sees. It is His Will, and you have joined with Him. | Wait patiently for Him. He will be there. The light has come. You |
| W1:75.10 | you know you cannot fail because you trust in Him. Tell yourself you | wait in certainty to look upon the world He promised you. From this |
| W1:77.5 | After this brief introductory phase, | wait quietly for the assurance that your request is granted. You have |
| W1:78.2 | you see by not allowing sight to stop before it sees. We will not | wait before the shield of hate, but lay it down and gently lift our |
| W1:79.7 | which we have failed to recognize. We will ask what it is and | wait for the answer. We will be told. Then we will ask for the |
| W1:90.7 | I need not | wait for this to be resolved. The answer to this problem is already |
| W1:94.6 | attributes, both “good” and “bad,” you have ascribed to yourself and | wait in silent expectancy for the truth. God has Himself promised |
| W1:96.10 | Wait patiently, and let Him speak to you about your Self, and what | |
| W1:98.12 | minutes you will spend again with Him. Repeat today's idea while you | wait for the glad time to come to you again. Repeat it often, and do |
| W1:104.3 | which are within us now, for they are timeless. And we need not | wait to have them. They belong to us today. Therefore we will to have |
| W1:106.3 | out to you in welcome and in love. Hear only Him today, and do not | wait to reach Him longer. Hear one Voice today. |
| W1:106.6 | today, and offer Him your voice to speak to all the multitudes who | wait to hear the Word that He will speak today. Be ready for |
| W1:125.3 | of God. It knows him not. Today we will not listen to the world, but | wait in silence for the Word of God. |

| W1:131.7 | Why | wait for Heaven? It is here today. Time is the great illusion; it is |
| W1:132.13 | Release the world! Your real creations | wait for this release to give you fatherhood, not of illusions, but |
| W1:152.14 | Then will we | wait in silence, giving up all self-deceptions as we humbly ask our |
| W1:152.15 | In patience | wait for Him throughout the day and hourly invite Him with the words |
| W1:153.17 | of our mission and His Love. And we will quietly sit by and | wait on Him and listen to His Voice and learn what He would have us |

| W1:154.11 | He needs our feet to bring us where He wills, that those who | wait in misery may be at last delivered. And He needs our will united |
| W1:R5.15 | in the experience that comes from practice, not the means we use. We | wait for the experience and recognize that it is only here conviction |
| W1:182.7 | in a world of alien thoughts. His patience has no limits. He will | wait until you hear His gentle Voice within you, calling you to let |

| W1:188.2 | This light cannot be lost. Why | wait to find it in the future or believe it has been lost already or |
| W2:I.2 | Now we attempt to let the exercise be merely a beginning. For we | wait in quiet expectation for our God and Father. He has promised He |
| W2:I.2 | His promises are kept. We have come far along the road, and now we | wait for Him. We will continue spending time with Him each morning |
| W2:I.4 | do we come to Him with but His Word upon our minds and hearts. And | wait for Him to take the step to us that He has told us, through His |

| W1:R2.3 | There is a message | waiting for you. Be confident that you will receive it. Remember that |

| W1:132.5 | make the world but came unwillingly to what was made already, hardly | waiting for your thoughts to give it meaning. Yet in truth you found |

| Tx:19.37 | freedom to everyone who draws nigh unto your temple, where healing | waits for him. |
| Tx:22.27 | immortal yet on earth. How great the power that lies in it. Time | waits upon its will, and earth will be as it would have it be. Here |
| Tx:22.42 | are here to let it be received. God's offer still is open, yet it | waits acceptance. From you who have accepted it is it received. Into |
| Tx:22.52 | this confusion, so profound it cannot be described, the Holy Spirit | waits in gentle patience, as certain of the outcome as He is sure of |
| Tx:24.19 | all your specialness and make you whole in mind and one with him. He | waits for your forgiveness only that he may return it unto you. It is |

| Tx:28.61 | and the Call to heal? Your savior waits for healing, and the world | waits with him. Nor are you apart from it. For healing will be one or |
| Tx:29.14 | because of everything you have received. Yet He Who entered in but | waits for you to come where you invited Him to be. There is no other |
| Tx:29.39 | of his birth and death. Forgiveness will not change him. Yet time | waits upon forgiveness that the things of time may disappear because |
| Tx:30.36 | What cause have you for anger in a world which merely | waits your blessing to be free? If you be prisoner, then God Himself |
| W1:49.4 | obscure your eternal link with God. Sink deep into the peace that | waits for you beyond the frantic, riotous thoughts and sounds and |
| W1:76.2 | tells you once again how simple is salvation. Look for it where it | waits for you, and there it will be found. Look nowhere else, for it |
| W1:78.1 | your eyes, you will not see the miracle beyond. Yet all the while it | waits for you in light, but you behold your grievances instead. |
| W1:78.3 | He | waits for you behind your grievances, and as you lay them down, he |
| W1:100.10 | reach Him now. What could you rather look upon in place of Him Who | waits that you may look on Him? What little thought has power to hold |
| W1:101.2 | only death and pain, and it is this they ask for, for they know it | waits for them and it will seek them out and find them somewhere, |
| W1:122.6 | Here is the answer! Would you stand outside while all of Heaven | waits for you within? Forgive and be forgiven. As you give, you will |
| W1:129.6 | you choose instead you want indeed! Let it be given you today. It | waits but for your choosing it to take the place of all the things |
| W1:133.17 | And then receive what | waits for everyone who reaches unencumbered to the gate of Heaven, |
| W1:135.12 | it receives through listening to Wisdom that is not its own. It | waits until it has been taught what should be done and then proceeds |
| W1:136.16 | And truth will come, for it has never been apart from us. It merely | waits for just this invitation which we give today. We introduce it |
| W1:153.11 | own. And while you fail to teach what you have learned, salvation | waits and darkness holds the world in grim imprisonment. Nor will you |
| W1:159.7 | No one will be turned away from this new home where his salvation | waits. No one is stranger to him. No one asks for anything of him |
| W1:R5.7 | And it is This that | waits to meet us at the journey's ending. Every step we take brings |
| W1:R5.10 | teach them to our brothers. God would not have Heaven incomplete. It | waits for you, as I do. I am incomplete without your part in me. And |
| W1:190.8 | little joys give way before the onslaught of the savage pain that | waits to end all joy in misery. |
| W1:192.2 | Yet on earth you need the means to let illusion go. Creation merely | waits for your return to be acknowledged, not to be complete. |
| W2:WF.4 | seeks to twist it to appearance that it likes. It merely looks and | waits and judges not. He who would not forgive must judge, for he |
| W2:270.1 | acknowledges his Father, lets his dreams be brought to truth, and | waits expectantly the one remaining instant more of time, which ends |
| W2:WIRW.5 | Spirit has no need of time when it has served His purpose. Now He | waits but that one instant more for God to take His final step, and |
| W2:317.1 | I have a special place to fill—a role for me alone. Salvation | waits until I take this part as what I choose to do. Until I make |
| W2:355.1 | keep Your Word You gave Your Son in exile. I am sure my treasure | waits for me, and I need but reach out my hand to find it. Even now |
| M:2.1 | chosen to fulfill his role, they are ready to fulfill theirs. Time | waits on his choice but not whom he will serve. When he is ready to |

| Tx:9.67 | Knowing them, you will have no wish to sleep but only the will to | waken and be glad. Dreams will be impossible, because you will want |

| Tx:1.89 | You who | want peace can find it only by complete forgiveness. You never really |
| Tx:1.102 | of any interpersonal relationship is limited or defined by what you | want it to do. Relating is a way of achieving an outcome. The danger |
| Tx:3.52 | something to fill a perceived lack, which is obviously why you would | want to make anything, you are tacitly implying that you believe in |
| Tx:3.53 | of the creation. Man can do this if he chooses, but he would hardly | want to do it if he were in his right mind. The problem that bothers |
| Tx:4.7 | he offers his ideas. Many stand guard over their ideas because they | want to protect their thought systems as they are, and learning means |
| Tx:4.12 | itself once you have made it, but it is not natural for you to | want to obey its laws unless you believe in them. The ego cannot make |
| Tx:4.50 | enter immediately into any mind which truly wants it, but it must | want it truly. This means that it wants it without ambivalence, and |
| Tx:4.56 | behavior is either strained or unpredictable. Yet this is what you | want. This is what you are fighting to keep and what you are vigilant |
| Tx:4.59 | arises ultimately from a sense of being deprived of something you | want and do not have. Know you are deprived of nothing except by your |
| Tx:4.73 | values in this world are hierarchical, and not everything you may | want to learn has lasting value. |
| Tx:4.74 | Indeed, many of the things you | want to learn are chosen because their value will not last. The ego |
| Tx:4.88 | impulses, not because the ego is a separate thing, but because you | want to believe that you are. The ego is a device for maintaining |
| Tx:4.90 | the little gap. Your gratitude to each other is the only gift I | want. I will bring it to God for you, knowing that to know your |
| Tx:4.93 | pattern is broken. You are still free to choose, but can you really | want the rewards of the ego in the presence of the rewards of God? |
| Tx:4.99 | nevertheless created beings who have everything individually but who | want to share it to increase their joy. Nothing that is real can be |
| Tx:4.101 | returned to Him, which would clearly be impossible, but He does | want revelation brought to others. This cannot be done with the |
| Tx:5.3 | beneficent thought of any of your brothers anywhere. You should | want to bless them in return out of gratitude. You do not have to |
| Tx:5.53 | without protest. It means that you cannot be hurt and do not | want to show your brother anything except your wholeness. Show him |
| Tx:5.55 | You are more than your brother's keeper. In fact, you do not | want to keep him. You must learn to see him as he is and know that he |
| Tx:5.66 | it wants, just as you can. That is why the question, “What do you | want?” must be answered. You are answering it every minute and every |
| Tx:5.68 | They also show that you believe you can think apart from God and | want to. Every thought disorder is attended by guilt at its inception |
| Tx:5.92 | side with its separateness. This willingness means that you do not | want to be healed. |
| Tx:5.96 | I can also decide otherwise. I will to decide otherwise, because I | want to be at peace. I do not feel guilty, because the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:6.8 | offered a different interpretation of attack and one which I do | want to share with you. If you will believe it, you will help me to |
| Tx:6.9 | persecution. This is not a lesson which the Sons of God should | want to teach if they are to realize their own salvation. Rather, |
| Tx:6.22 | to follow me at the time. I emphasize this only because I do not | want you to allow any fear to enter into the thought system toward |
| Tx:6.28 | by excluding something [you think] exists in you which you do not | want and leads directly to excluding you from your brothers. We have |
| Tx:6.33 | is not in perfect alignment with the idea and therefore does not | want it now. |
| Tx:6.64 | It is a real foundation stone of the thought system I teach and | want you to teach. You cannot perform miracles without believing it, |
| Tx:6.75 | accept both, you are teaching conflict and learning it. Yet you do | want peace, or you would not have called upon the Voice for Peace to |
| Tx:6.79 | reversal. The second step is a positive affirmation of what you | want. This, then, is a step in the direction out of conflict since it |
| Tx:6.84 | teach your mind to be critical of other minds, because He does not | want you to teach errors and learn them yourselves. He would hardly |
| Tx:6.90 | getting. Next you learn that you learn what you teach and that you | want to learn peace. This is the condition for identifying with the |
| Tx:6.95 | The third step, then, is a statement of what you | want to believe and entails a willingness to relinquish everything |
| Tx:6.95 | you to go on if you follow Him. Your vigilance is the sign that you | want Him to guide you. Vigilance does require effort, but only to |
| Tx:7.21 | are potentials for learning, and you will apply them to what you | want to learn. Learning is effort, and effort means will. We have |
| Tx:7.22 | The ego does not | want to teach everyone all it has learned, because that would defeat |
| Tx:7.37 | it has this ability and can offer it to you as a gift. You do not | want it. It is not a gift. It is nothing at all. God has given you a |
| Tx:7.50 | and perfect joy that is the Kingdom lies in you to give. Do you not | want to give it? |
| Tx:7.51 | into theirs and enlighten them, as I can enlighten yours. I do not | want to share my body in communion, because that is to share nothing. |
| Tx:7.51 | with the most holy children of a most holy Father?] Yet I do | want to share my mind with you, because we are of One Mind and that |
| Tx:7.58 | one who has everything wants the ego. Its own maker, then, does not | want it. Rejection is therefore the only decision which the ego could |
| Tx:7.60 | exactly as it is, and it is meaningless. The Holy Spirit does not | want you to understand conflict; He wants you to realize that, |
| Tx:7.63 | without splitting them. If they cannot coexist in peace and if you | want peace, you must give up the idea of conflict entirely and for |
| Tx:7.67 | means that you have not judged sanity as wholly desirable. If you | want something else, you will make something else, but because it is |
| Tx:7.72 | you make is determined by what you think you are, and what you | want to be is what you think you are. Therefore, what you want to be |
| Tx:7.72 | what you want to be is what you think you are. Therefore, what you | want to be determines every response you make. |
| Tx:7.73 | they were made together. Teach no one that he is what you would not | want to be. Your brother is the mirror in which you will see the |
| Tx:7.74 | You made perception, and it must last as long as you | want it. Illusions are investments. They will last as long as you |
| Tx:7.78 | unless you perceived it as a means of depriving you of something you | want. Yet you cannot lose anything unless you did not value it and |
| Tx:7.78 | lose anything unless you did not value it and therefore did not | want it. This makes you feel deprived of it, and by projecting your |
| Tx:7.82 | law is perceived as a way of getting rid of something it does not | want. To the Holy Spirit, it is the fundamental law of sharing by |
| Tx:7.84 | devising ways which seem to diminish conflict, because it does not | want you to find conflict so intolerable that you will insist on |
| Tx:7.85 | fallacy is the idea that you can get rid of something you do not | want by giving it away. Giving it is how you keep it. The belief that |
| Tx:7.98 | possibly maintain it. If you really saw this result, you could not | want it. The only reason why you could possibly want any part of it |
| Tx:7.98 | you could not want it. The only reason why you could possibly | want any part of it is because you do not see the whole of it. You |
| Tx:7.100 | is not whether what the Holy Spirit says is true, but whether you | want to listen to what He says. |
| Tx:7.103 | your strength. As long as you avoid His guidance in any way, you | want to be weak. Yet weakness is frightening. What else, then, can |
| Tx:7.103 | frightening. What else, then, can this decision mean except that you | want to be fearful? The Holy Spirit never asks for sacrifice, but the |
| Tx:8.3 | to evaluate them in terms of their results to you. If you do not | want them on the basis of loss of peace, they will be removed from |
| Tx:8.5 | of learning failure since it means that you did not get what you | want. The curriculum of the Atonement is the opposite of the |
| Tx:8.5 | its outcome. If the outcome of yours has made you unhappy and if you | want a different one, a change in the curriculum is obviously |
| Tx:8.11 | The ego wants to teach you that you | want to oppose God's Will. This unnatural lesson cannot be learned, |
| Tx:8.16 | been given. Ask for light and learn that you are light. If you | want understanding and enlightenment, you will learn it, because your |
| Tx:8.29 | Do you not think the world needs peace as much as you do? Do you not | want to give it to the world as much as you want to receive it? For |
| Tx:8.29 | as you do? Do you not want to give it to the world as much as you | want to receive it? For unless you do, you will not receive it. If |
| Tx:8.29 | you must accept it from within. The guidance must [become] what you | want, or it will be meaningless to you. That is why rehabilitation is |
| Tx:8.32 | will its power, which I can only acknowledge in honor of His. If you | want to be like me, I will help you, knowing that we are alike. If |
| Tx:8.32 | to be like me, I will help you, knowing that we are alike. If you | want to be different, I will wait until you change your mind. I can |
| Tx:8.35 | they prefer the delusion. Judging truth as something they do not | want, they perceive deception and block knowledge. |
| Tx:8.41 | I am beyond the ego. Reach therefore for my hand, because you | want to transcend the ego. My will will never be wanting, and if you |
| Tx:8.41 | want to transcend the ego. My will will never be wanting, and if you | want to share it you will. I give it willingly and gladly, because I |
| Tx:8.45 | God wants only His Son because His Son is His only treasure. You | want your creations as He wants His. Your creations are your gift to |
| Tx:8.46 | else and expect joy in return? And what else but joy would you | want? You made neither yourself nor your function. You made only the |
| Tx:8.49 | There is no question but one you should ever ask of yourself: “Do I | want to know my Father's Will for me?” He will not hide it. He has |
| Tx:8.53 | it simply by the belief that attack can get you something you | want. If you did not believe this, the idea of attack would have no |
| Tx:8.68 | lie your only hope for release. But what other hope would you | want? Freedom from illusions lies only in not believing them. There |
| Tx:8.73 | you do not realize that it is entirely out of keeping with what you | want. This witness, then, appears to be innocent and trustworthy, |
| Tx:8.74 | A more honest statement would be as follows: Those who | want the ego are predisposed to defend it. Therefore, their choice of |
| Tx:8.78 | Have you seriously considered the distorting power of something you | want, even if it is not true? You have had many instances of how what |
| Tx:8.78 | even if it is not true? You have had many instances of how what you | want can distort what you see and hear. No one can doubt the ego's |
| Tx:8.92 | something quite beyond your awareness with something you do not | want. It is evident, then, that you are judging something of which |
| Tx:8.92 | is. The purpose of this Guide is merely to remind you of what you | want. He is not attempting to force an alien will upon you. He is |
| Tx:8.95 | How sensible can your messages be when you ask for what you do not | want? Yet as long as you are afraid of your will, this is precisely |
| Tx:8.96 | You do not ask only for what you | want. This is solely because you are afraid you might receive it, and |
| Tx:8.98 | Many people seek both, but it is still true that they do not | want them. Can you ask the Holy Spirit for “gifts” such as these and |
| Tx:8.98 | God. His task is not to make anything for you.] He cannot make you | want something you do not want. When you ask the Universal Giver for |
| Tx:8.98 | make anything for you.] He cannot make you want something you do not | want. When you ask the Universal Giver for what you do not want, you |
| Tx:8.98 | do not want. When you ask the Universal Giver for what you do not | want, you are asking for what cannot be given, because it was never |
| Tx:8.99 | without a cause, and God is the only Cause. God is Love, and you do | want Him. This is your will. Ask for this and you will be answered |
| Tx:8.103 | can be made into a very persistent goal, even though you do not | want it. But consider the result of this strange decision. You are |
| Tx:8.103 | this strange decision. You are devoting your mind to what you do not | want. How real can this devotion be? If you do not want it, it was |
| Tx:8.103 | what you do not want. How real can this devotion be? If you do not | want it, it was never created. If it was never created, it is |
| Tx:8.108 | then, that what you request of the Holy Spirit is what you really | want, but you are still afraid of it. Should this be the case, your |
| Tx:8.108 | this be the case, your attainment of it would no longer be what you | want, even if it is. This accounts for why certain specific forms of |
| Tx:8.112 | your brother what you would have me hear of you, for you would not | want me to be deceived. |
| Tx:8.116 | receive. Valuing it little, you will not appreciate it and will not | want it. |
| Tx:8.117 | you put upon it. And this, in turn, is the measure of how much you | want it. |
| Tx:8.118 | to have His answer because His answer is all you can ask for and | want. Say, then, to everyone, |
| Tx:9.5 | perceive his errors and accept them, you are accepting yours. If you | want to give yours over to the Holy Spirit, you must do this with |
| Tx:9.8 | eternity. You do not need to learn this, but you do need to learn to | want this, and for this all learning was made. This is the Holy |
| Tx:9.37 | understanding. Could you but accept one of them, you would not | want anything the world has to offer. Everything else would be |
| Tx:9.47 | nothing unworthy of God is worthy of you. Choose, then, what you | want in these terms and accept nothing that you would not offer to |
| Tx:9.47 | you would not offer to God as wholly fitting for Him, for you do not | want anything else. Return your part of Him, and He will give you all |
| Tx:9.49 | this belief, grandiosity is meaningless, and you could not possibly | want it. The essence of grandiosity is competitiveness, because it |
| Tx:9.53 | upon your grandeur, you cannot despair, and therefore you cannot | want the ego. Your grandeur is God's answer to the ego because it is |
| Tx:9.67 | to waken and be glad. Dreams will be impossible, because you will | want only truth, and being at last your will, it will be yours. |
| Tx:9.73 | it only because you still believe that it can get you something you | want. It follows, then, that you want something other than peace of |
| Tx:9.73 | that it can get you something you want. It follows, then, that you | want something other than peace of mind, but you have not considered |
| Tx:9.78 | thought system and judge whether its offering is really what you | want, for this is what it offers you. To obtain this you are willing |
| Tx:9.89 | What you have made is so unworthy of you that you could hardly | want it if you were willing to see it as it is. You will see nothing |
| Tx:9.94 | You will receive the message you give, because it is the message you | want. You may believe that you judge your brothers by the messages |
| Tx:9.95 | keep the gods you made, for only in sickness could you possibly | want them. Blasphemy, then, is self-destructive, not God-destructive. |
| Tx:10.13 | to conflict. God then may seem to demand of you what you do not | want to give and thus deprive you of what you want. Would God, who |
| Tx:10.13 | of you what you do not want to give and thus deprive you of what you | want. Would God, who wants only your will, be capable of this? Your |
| Tx:10.14 | and fear arises here because this is the belief that makes you | want not to know. Believing this, you hide in darkness, denying that |
| Tx:10.16 | and be healed is the first step toward recognizing what you truly | want. Every attack is a step away from this, and every healing |
| Tx:10.20 | needs your protection, but only because your care is a sign that you | want Him. Think like Him ever so slightly, and the little spark |
| Tx:10.39 | have the lamp that will dispel it, and since you realize you do not | want it, you must be ready. Let us be very calm in doing this, for we |
| Tx:10.58 | on what you perceive in him. Everyone convinces you of what you | want to perceive and of the reality of the kingdom you have chosen |
| Tx:10.58 | Everything you perceive is a witness to the thought system you | want to be true. Every brother has the power to release you if you |
| Tx:10.64 | whole compelling power lies in the fact that it represents what you | want to be. The freedom to leave behind everything that hurts you and |
| Tx:10.78 | Do I | want the problem, or do I want the answer? |
| Tx:10.78 | Do I want the problem, or do I | want the answer? |
| Tx:10.85 | to accept this Help by asking for it, you will give it because you | want it. Nothing will be beyond your healing power because nothing |
| Tx:11.1 | to make error real, and the way to do this is very simple. If you | want to believe in error, you would have to make it real because it |
| Tx:11.8 | you will be healed. For you will recognize God's answer as you | want it to be, and if you want it in truth, it will be truly yours. |
| Tx:11.8 | For you will recognize God's answer as you want it to be, and if you | want it in truth, it will be truly yours. Every appeal you answer in |
| Tx:11.19 | You still | want what God wills, and no nightmare can defeat a Child of God in |
| Tx:11.23 | at learning how to offer to the Holy Spirit everything you do not | want. He knows what to do with it. You do not know how to use what He |
| Tx:11.25 | a brother insists on having you do something you think you do not | want to do. The very fact of his insistence should tell you that he |
| Tx:11.33 | without meaning of any kind. For it was made out of what you do not | want, projected from your mind because you were afraid of it. |
| Tx:11.55 | You do not | want the world. The only thing of value in it is whatever part of it |
| Tx:11.66 | recognize neither. For you will think they are the same because you | want them both. The mind always strives for integration, and if it is |
| Tx:11.67 | behold his witnesses. This is why you find what you seek. What you | want in yourself, you will make manifest by projection, and you will |
| Tx:11.68 | When you think you are projecting what you do not | want, it is still because you do want it. This leads directly to |
| Tx:11.68 | you are projecting what you do not want, it is still because you do | want it. This leads directly to dissociation, for it represents the |
| Tx:11.68 | healed is to pursue one goal because you have accepted only one and | want but one. |
| Tx:11.69 | When you | want only love you will see nothing else. The contradictory nature of |
| Tx:11.72 | nor hear the answer which you sought. That is because you do not yet | want only that. Yet as I become more real to you, you will learn that |
| Tx:11.72 | that. Yet as I become more real to you, you will learn that you do | want only that. And you will see me as you look within, and we will |
| Tx:11.75 | because, by confusing yourself with the ego, you believe that you | want death. And from what you want, God does not save you. |
| Tx:11.75 | with the ego, you believe that you want death. And from what you | want, God does not save you. |
| Tx:11.98 | but by identifying with the ego could you hold dear what you do not | want? |
| Tx:12.5 | but you have not uncovered its source. For the ego does | want to kill you, and if you identify with it, you must believe its |
| Tx:12.8 | the futility of the ego and its offerings, but though you do not | want the ego, you do not look upon the alternative with gladness. You |
| Tx:12.12 | wish caused the separation. You have protected it because you do not | want the separation healed, and you realize that, by removing the |
| Tx:12.12 | and burning love of God, and His for you. This is what you really | want to hide. |
| Tx:12.61 | You do not really | want the world you see, for it has disappointed you since time began. |
| Tx:12.62 | rise to it from every part of this strange world you made but do not | want. The only effort you need make to give this world away in glad |
| Tx:12.67 | then awaken to it. Your first exchange of what you made for what you | want is the exchange of nightmares for the happy dreams of love. In |
| Tx:12.72 | journey that would lead away from light, remember what you really | want and say, |
| Tx:13.40 | you will need no contrast to help you realize that this is what you | want, and only this. Fear not the Holy Spirit will fail in what your |
| Tx:13.42 | joining your minds with His, cannot be broken. You may believe you | want it broken, and this belief does interfere with the deep peace in |
| Tx:13.65 | an escape from what the other does not offer you. You do not | want either alone, for without both, you do not see yourselves as |
| Tx:13.69 | you will think he does. It is impossible to offer what you do not | want without this penalty. The cost of giving is receiving. Either it |
| Tx:13.73 | they will fail to understand the simple fact that what they do not | want must hurt them. |
| Tx:13.74 | All this arises because they do not believe that what they | want is good. Yet will was given them because it is holy and will |
| Tx:13.74 | effort, strain, or the impossible burden of deciding what they | want and need alone. |
| Tx:13.88 | this is your only function, and you must learn that it is all you | want to learn. |
| Tx:13.91 | against your function in Heaven and consider carefully whether you | want to make decisions here. Your function here is only to decide |
| Tx:13.91 | here. Your function here is only to decide against deciding what you | want in recognition that you do not know. How, then, can you decide |
| Tx:14.24 | What do you | want? Light or darkness, knowledge or ignorance are yours, but not |
| Tx:14.27 | on bringing what is undesirable to the desirable; what you do not | want to what you do. You will realize that salvation must come to you |
| Tx:14.62 | to Him Who teaches light He will accept from you because you do not | want it. And He will gladly exchange each one for the bright lesson |
| Tx:14.64 | You need only recognize that everything you learned you do not | want. Ask to be taught and do not use your experiences to confirm |
| Tx:14.73 | them can really learn at all. And for this, it must be peace they | want and nothing else. Whenever you think you know, peace will depart |
| Tx:14.74 | If you | want peace, you must abandon the teacher of attack. The Teacher of |
| Tx:15.35 | Will is so. The holy instant is this one and every one. The one you | want it to be it is. The one you would not have it be is lost to you. |
| Tx:15.35 | Yet you cannot bring it into glad awareness while you do not | want it, for it holds the whole release from littleness. |
| Tx:15.36 | littleness instead, by so much is it far from you. By so much as you | want it will you bring it nearer. Think not that you can find |
| Tx:15.38 | conditions. You can claim the holy instant any time and anywhere you | want it. In your practice, try to give over every plan you have |
| Tx:15.42 | communication holds value to you. Ask yourselves honestly, “Would I | want to have perfect communication, and am I wholly willing to let |
| Tx:15.71 | In these insane relationships, the attraction of what you do not | want seems to be much stronger than the attraction of what you do. |
| Tx:15.85 | permanent. For once you have accepted it as the only perception you | want, it is translated into knowledge by the part which God Himself |
| Tx:15.86 | to recognize as wholly without gratification what you think you | want. The body is the symbol of the ego, as the ego is the symbol of |
| Tx:15.91 | of this relationship becomes the only truth that you could ever | want. All truth is here. |
| Tx:15.95 | but as different manifestations of the same idea, and one you do not | want, they go together. The idea is simply this—you believe that it |
| Tx:15.109 | with Him they remember the only relationship they ever had and ever | want to have. |
| Tx:15.111 | Spirit as part of myself. I know that you will be released, unless I | want to use you to imprison myself. In the name of my freedom I will |
| Tx:16.3 | Your part is only to remember this—you do not | want anything you value to come of the relationship. You will neither |
| Tx:16.16 | No evidence will convince you of the truth of what you do not | want. Yet your relationship with Him is real and has been |
| Tx:16.49 | no extension. Each partner tries to sacrifice the self he does not | want for one he thinks he would prefer. And he feels guilty for the |
| Tx:16.52 | perceived the special relationship as a triumph over God, would you | want it? Let us not think of its fearful nature nor of the guilt it |
| Tx:16.54 | has triumphed over content and love has lost its meaning. Would you | want this to be possible, even apart from its evident impossibility? |
| Tx:16.55 | and His greatness. In the name of your completion, you do not | want this. For every idol which you raise to place before Him stands |
| Tx:16.56 | they are, and you will fail to do this to the extent to which you | want them to be true. And to the same extent you are denying truth, |
| Tx:16.71 | it has not gone because you think it serves some purpose that you | want fulfilled. And it must also be that this purpose could not be |
| Tx:17.13 | How much do you | want salvation? It will give you the real world, trembling with |
| Tx:17.21 | the relationship so you can see it more and more. For you will | want it more and more and become increasingly unwilling to let it be |
| Tx:17.58 | uncertain, the first thing to consider, very simply, is, “What do I | want to come of this? What is it for?” The clarification of the goal |
| Tx:17.58 | know what it wants to come of it. It is aware of what it does not | want, but only that. It has no positive goal at all. |
| Tx:17.60 | The value of deciding in advance what you | want to happen is simply that you will perceive the situation as a |
| Tx:17.76 | Would you not | want to make a holy instant of every situation? For such is the gift |
| Tx:18.17 | are perceptual temper tantrums in which you literally scream, “I | want it thus!” And thus it seems to be. And yet the dream cannot |
| Tx:18.18 | power to make a world as you would have it be, and that because you | want it, you see it. And while you see it, you do not doubt that it |
| Tx:18.32 | prepare your minds for it only to the extent of recognizing that you | want it above all else. It is not necessary that you do more; indeed, |
| Tx:18.44 | must be loving. Their message is, “Thy will be done,” and not, “I | want it otherwise.” The alignment of means and purpose is an |
| Tx:18.54 | impossible to act out fantasies. For it is still the fantasies you | want, and they have nothing to do with what the body does. It does |
| Tx:18.62 | It is possible because you | want it. The sudden expansion of the self which takes place with your |
| Tx:19.25 | As an essential part of what the ego thinks you are, you will always | want it. And only an avenger with a mind unlike your own could stamp |
| Tx:19.26 | and will be repeated endlessly.] For what you think is real you | want and will not let it go. An error, on the other hand, is not |
| Tx:19.26 | other hand, is not attractive. What you see clearly as a mistake you | want corrected. |
| Tx:19.41 | Why would you | want peace homeless? What do you think that it must dispossess to |
| Tx:19.57 | be the symbol of sin while you believe that it can get you what you | want. While you believe that it can give you pleasure, you will also |
| Tx:19.63 | but barriers you place between your will and its accomplishment? You | want communion, not the feast of fear. You want salvation, not the |
| Tx:19.63 | its accomplishment? You want communion, not the feast of fear. You | want salvation, not the pain of guilt. And you want your Father, not |
| Tx:19.63 | feast of fear. You want salvation, not the pain of guilt. And you | want your Father, not a little mound of clay, to be your home. In |
| Tx:19.73 | it has no feeling. It transmits to you the feelings that you | want. Like any communication medium, the body receives and sends the |
| Tx:20.39 | It will be given you to see your brother's worth when all you | want for him is peace. And what you want for him, you will receive. |
| Tx:20.39 | brother's worth when all you want for him is peace. And what you | want for him, you will receive. |
| Tx:20.40 | estimate the worth of him who offers peace to you? What would you | want except his offering? His worth has been established by his |
| Tx:20.53 | a snowflake, but without its loveliness. Is this the substitute you | want for the eternal blessing of the holy instant and its unlimited |
| Tx:20.53 | the body and quietly transcend it, rising to welcome what you really | want. And from His holy temple, look you not back on what you have |
| Tx:20.56 | than its unholy seeming counterpart, and you have learned you really | want but one. This is no time for sadness. Perhaps confusion, but |
| Tx:20.59 | to leave the means to Him Who changed the purpose. You recognize you | want the goal. Are you not also willing to accept the means? If you |
| Tx:20.59 | you are inconsistent. A purpose is attained by means, and if you | want a purpose, you must be willing to want the means as well. How |
| Tx:20.59 | attained by means, and if you want a purpose, you must be willing to | want the means as well. How can one be sincere and say, “I want this |
| Tx:20.59 | to want the means as well. How can one be sincere and say, “I | want this above all else, and yet I do not want to learn the means to |
| Tx:20.59 | be sincere and say, “I want this above all else, and yet I do not | want to learn the means to get it”? |
| Tx:20.68 | Do you not | want to know your own Identity? Would you not happily exchange your |
| Tx:20.74 | held, they disappear. Therefore, the question never is whether you | want them, but always, do you want the purpose which they serve? This |
| Tx:20.74 | the question never is whether you want them, but always, do you | want the purpose which they serve? This world seems to hold out many |
| Tx:21.5 | joyously and are remembered gladly. What gives you happiness you | want to learn and not forget. It is not this you would deny. Your |
| Tx:21.18 | this exchange effected and maintained. Here is the world you do not | want brought to the one you do. And here the one you do is given you |
| Tx:21.18 | to the one you do. And here the one you do is given you because you | want it. Yet for this, the power of your wanting must first be |
| Tx:21.30 | its effects, but it is not your purpose, and you no longer | want it. No one allows a purpose to be replaced while he desires it, |
| Tx:21.34 | means to teach you that the vision of a holy relationship is all you | want to see. Then will you give your faith to holiness, desiring and |
| Tx:21.46 | you in rage at your “presumptuous” wish to look within, you do not | want. A few remaining trinkets still seem to shine and catch your |
| Tx:21.49 | by all the ego's raucous screams and senseless ravings to those who | want to hear it. Perception is a choice and not a fact. But on this |
| Tx:21.66 | must be dispelled by reason. Reason assures you Heaven is what you | want, and all you want. Listen to Him Who speaks with reason and |
| Tx:21.66 | by reason. Reason assures you Heaven is what you want, and all you | want. Listen to Him Who speaks with reason and brings your reason |
| Tx:21.75 | I desire a world in which I have no enemies and cannot sin? And do I | want to see what I denied because it is the truth? |
| Tx:21.77 | of power and attack of helplessness. Whom you attack you cannot | want to heal. And whom you would have healed must be the one you |
| Tx:21.77 | this decision leads to its effects is not your problem. But what you | want to see must be your choice. This is a course in cause and not |
| Tx:21.79 | Is this what I would see? Do I | want this? |
| Tx:21.81 | this same desire as a little glint of sin attracts you. And you can | want to see a sinless world and let an “enemy” tempt you to use the |
| Tx:21.82 | the option to change your mind again. When it is this you do not | want, the rest are wholly answered. |
| Tx:22.45 | And you need no defense. Everything that needs defense you do not | want, for anything that needs defense will weaken you. |
| Tx:22.51 | Do you | want freedom of the body or of the mind? For both you cannot have. |
| Tx:22.62 | or hurt yourself without the other feeling pain. And this belief you | want. Yet wherein lies its value except in the desire to attack in |
| Tx:23.8 | conceivable? And if it were, is this a victory that you would | want? The death of God, if it were possible, would be your death. Is |
| Tx:23.29 | from this most treacherous and cunning enemy? It must be what you | want but never found. And now you “understand” the reason why you |
| Tx:23.30 | But what is it you | want that needs his death? Can you be sure your murderous attack is |
| Tx:23.43 | of any kind. To compromise is to accept but part of what you | want—to take a little and give up the rest. Salvation gives up |
| Tx:23.44 | for this and love for that and understand forgiveness. Would you not | want to recognize assault upon your peace in any form, if only thus |
| Tx:23.54 | share their Father's purpose and who know that it is theirs! They | want for nothing. Sorrow of any kind is inconceivable. Only the light |
| Tx:24.55 | Choose, then, his body or his holiness as what you | want to see, and which you choose is yours to look upon. Yet will you |
| Tx:24.70 | feel it with your hands and hear it move. Here is an image that you | want to be yourself. It is the means to make your wish come true. It |
| Tx:25.6 | Perception is a choice of what you | want yourself to be—the world you want to live in and the state in |
| Tx:25.6 | is a choice of what you want yourself to be—the world you | want to live in and the state in which you think your mind will be |
| Tx:25.12 | can hold is that you learn it gave you no rewards that you would | want to keep. For only thus will you be willing to relinquish it and |
| Tx:25.23 | see what you believe is there, and you believe it there because you | want it there. Perception has no other law than this. The rest but |
| Tx:25.29 | What then is justified? What do you | want? For these two questions are the same. And when you see them as |
| Tx:25.29 | to extend your own forgiveness. Such its purpose is to those who | want to see peace and forgiveness descend on them and offer them the |
| Tx:25.62 | belief that God's insanity would make you sane and give you what you | want. That either God or you must lose to madness because your aims |
| Tx:25.84 | To give a problem to the Holy Spirit to solve for you means that you | want it solved. To keep it for yourself to solve without His help is |
| Tx:26.15 | you think are great and cannot be resolved. For there are those you | want to suffer loss and no one whom you wish to be preserved from |
| Tx:26.16 | problems. You will not keep one, for pain in any form you will not | want. And you will see each little hurt resolved before the Holy |
| Tx:26.37 | the truth the past is gone and cannot be returned to you? And do you | want that fearful instant kept, when Heaven seemed to disappear and |
| Tx:26.58 | be afraid of it. Is fear a treasure? Can uncertainty be what you | want? Or is it a mistake about your will and what you really are? Let |
| Tx:26.70 | see it for. If you would keep a little space between you still, you | want a little time in which forgiveness is withheld a little while. |
| Tx:27.34 | Nor delay an instant in deciding that it is the only one you | want. It does not stand for double concepts. Though it is but half |
| Tx:27.39 | The others are not true. What can the body get that you would | want the most of all? It is your servant and your friend. But tell it |
| Tx:27.39 | of all? It is your servant and your friend. But tell it what you | want, and it will serve you lovingly and well.” And this is not a |
| Tx:27.39 | and well.” And this is not a question, for it tells you what you | want and where to go for it. It leaves no room to question its |
| Tx:27.41 | in a conflict state is free to ask this question, for he does not | want an honest answer where the conflict ends. Only within the holy |
| Tx:27.78 | them away for senseless things it does not need and does not even | want. It hires other bodies, that they may protect it, and collect |
| Tx:27.84 | blaming them, you will not see the cause of what they do because you | want the guilt to rest on them. How childish is this petulant device |
| Tx:27.89 | you pay no heed at all. For they attest the thing you do not | want to know. They seem to keep it secret from you. Yet you need but |
| Tx:28.25 | what He would have you learn and shows you its effects are what you | want. In His forgiving dreams are the effects of yours undone and |
| Tx:28.30 | Fight not His coming with illusions, for it is His coming that you | want above all things that seem to glisten in the dream. |
| Tx:28.46 | for substitutes when he perceives he has lost nothing? Who would | want to have the “benefits” of sickness when he has received the |
| Tx:28.49 | believe you are the dream you share. And fearing it, you will not | want to know your own Identity because you think that it is fearful. |
| Tx:28.51 | scrap and shred of evidence, and make a witness to the world you | want. Let not the body's ears and eyes perceive these countless |
| Tx:28.55 | you give because it has no feeling. It behaves in ways you | want but never makes the choice. It is not born and does not die. It |
| Tx:28.56 | The thing you hate and fear and loathe and | want, the body does not know. You send it forth to seek for |
| Tx:28.56 | you. Yet you have made of it a symbol for the limitations which you | want your mind to have and see and keep. |
| Tx:28.60 | a little gap, would be a lack. And it is only there that he could | want for something he has not. A space where God is not, a gap |
| Tx:29.25 | The choice is not between which dreams to keep, but only if you | want to live in dreams or to awaken from them. Thus it is the miracle |
| Tx:29.35 | to bless and lead God's Son unto his Father's house. Would you not | want to be a friend to him, created by his Father as His home? If God |
| Tx:29.43 | For all your pain comes simply from a futile search for what you | want, insisting where it must be found. What if it is not there? Do |
| Tx:29.49 | ascribe to them. And you pursue them vainly in the dream because you | want their power as your own. |
| Tx:30.2 | ready. Do not fight yourself. But think about the kind of day you | want and tell yourself there is a way in which this very day can |
| Tx:30.2 | day can happen just like that. Then try again to have the day you | want. |
| Tx:30.7 | quiet moment for reflection, tell yourself again the kind of day you | want, the feelings you would have, the things you want to happen to |
| Tx:30.7 | kind of day you want, the feelings you would have, the things you | want to happen to you, and the things you would experience and say, |
| Tx:30.10 | will provoke attack unless you quickly straighten out your mind to | want an answer that will work. Be certain this has happened if you |
| Tx:30.11 | 3. Remember once again the day you | want and recognize that something has occurred which is not part of |
| Tx:30.14 | the question asks will gain momentum until you believe the day you | want is one in which you get your answer to your question. And you |
| Tx:30.14 | it, for it would destroy the day by robbing you of what you really | want. This can be very hard to realize when once you have decided by |
| Tx:30.20 | you that help is not being thrust upon you but is something that you | want and that you need, because you do not like the way you feel. |
| Tx:30.22 | you further. You are not coerced but merely hope to get a thing you | want. And you can say in perfect honesty, |
| Tx:30.23 | I | want another way to look at this. |
| Tx:30.24 | changed your mind about the day and have remembered what you really | want. Its purpose has no longer been obscured by the insane belief |
| Tx:30.24 | Its purpose has no longer been obscured by the insane belief you | want it for the goal of being right when you are wrong. Thus is the |
| Tx:30.24 | awareness, for you cannot be in conflict when you ask for what you | want and see that it is this for which you ask. |
| Tx:30.31 | well is but a fact. For you and your advisor must agree on what you | want before it can occur. It is but this agreement which permits all |
| Tx:30.31 | and your advisor for yourself and for the world as well. The day you | want you offer to the world, for it will be what you have asked for |
| Tx:30.32 | one reminder that you keep in mind, and you will have the day you | want and give it to the world by having it yourself. Your judgment |
| Tx:30.34 | will. God would not have His Son made prisoner to what he does not | want. He joins with you in willing you be free. And to oppose Him is |
| Tx:30.38 | as if you said, “I have no need of everything. This little thing I | want, and it will be as everything to me.” And this must fail to |
| Tx:30.39 | two of what is one? And can the limitless be limited? You do not | want an idol. It is not your will to have one. It will not bestow on |
| Tx:30.39 | on you the gift you seek. When you decide upon the form of what you | want, you lose the understanding of its purpose. So you see your will |
| Tx:30.41 | It never is the idol that you | want. But what you think it offers you, you want indeed and have the |
| Tx:30.41 | is the idol that you want. But what you think it offers you, you | want indeed and have the right to ask for. Nor could it be possible |
| Tx:30.41 | forms made but to fill a gap which is not there. It is not this you | want. Creation gives no separate person and no separate thing the |
| Tx:30.54 | brought about when you decide one very simple thing—you do not | want whatever you believe an idol gives. For thus the Son of God |
| Tx:30.55 | let your will be done and seek no longer for the things you do not | want. And you are asked to let yourself be free of all the dreams of |
| Tx:30.56 | no need of them. They offer him no single thing that he could ever | want. He is delivered from illusions by his will and but restored to |
| Tx:30.63 | Perhaps they still look back and think they see an idol that they | want. Yet has their path been surely set away from idols toward |
| Tx:30.91 | appeal which makes them harder to resist than those you would not | want to have reality. Temptation, then, is nothing more than this—a |
| Tx:30.92 | healing. But there is no miracle that can be given you unless you | want it. Choose what you would heal, and He Who gives all miracles |
| Tx:31.11 | decision on what you would learn and have an outcome that you do not | want? It is the recognition that it is a state of mind unwanted that |
| Tx:31.11 | outcome seen to be preferred. You are deceived if you believe you | want disaster and disunity and pain. Hear not the call for this |
| Tx:31.15 | as separate roles, each seeming to possess advantages you would not | want to lose. So in their fusion there appears to be the hope of |
| Tx:31.16 | would have it, and you hate as well his not assuming it at times you | want to let the follower in you arise and give away the role of |
| Tx:31.17 | And what of him? What does he | want of you? What could he want, but what you want of him? Herein is |
| Tx:31.17 | And what of him? What does he want of you? What could he | want, but what you want of him? Herein is life as easily as death, |
| Tx:31.17 | of him? What does he want of you? What could he want, but what you | want of him? Herein is life as easily as death, for what you choose, |
| Tx:31.17 | you see an image of yourself and hear your voice requesting what you | want. |
| Tx:31.20 | the selfsame road. He is like us, as near or far away from what we | want as we will let him be. We make no gains he does not make with |
| Tx:31.22 | you come to listen silently and learn the truth of what you really | want. No more than this will you be asked to learn. But as you hear |
| Tx:31.22 | understand you need but come away without the thoughts you did not | want and that were never true. |
| Tx:31.24 | will perceive his purpose is the same as yours. He asks for what you | want and needs the same as you. It takes perhaps a different form in |
| Tx:31.27 | would be the gain to you? What could the outcome be that you would | want? And how could murder bring you benefit? |
| Tx:31.31 | will see no one as prisoner to what you have escaped. You will not | want to hold in guilt your chosen enemies nor keep in chains to the |
| Tx:31.46 | omits this face, for he has need of it. The other side he does not | want to see. Yet it is here the learning of the world has set its |
| Tx:31.59 | The world can teach no images of you unless you | want to learn them. There will come a time when images have all gone |
| Tx:31.62 | escape the body as your own reality, for you have chosen that you | want it so. But choose the Spirit, and all Heaven bends to touch your |
| W1:4.2 | ones are blocks to sight and make seeing impossible. You do not | want either. |
| W1:20.2 | Do not misconstrue it as an effort to exert force or pressure. You | want salvation. You want to be happy. You want peace. You do not have |
| W1:20.2 | it as an effort to exert force or pressure. You want salvation. You | want to be happy. You want peace. You do not have them now because |
| W1:20.2 | force or pressure. You want salvation. You want to be happy. You | want peace. You do not have them now because your mind is totally |
| W1:20.3 | Your decision to see is all that vision requires. What you | want is yours. Do not mistake the little effort that is asked of you |
| W1:20.4 | today consist in reminding yourselves throughout the day that you | want to see. Today's idea also tacitly implies the recognition that |
| W1:20.4 | to change your present state for a better one, and one you really | want. |
| W1:22.2 | It is from this savage fantasy that you | want to escape. Is it not joyous news to hear that it is not real? Is |
| W1:22.6 | Is this the world I really | want to see? |
| W1:23.2 | thoughts, you must learn that it is these thoughts which you do not | want. There is no point in lamenting the world. There is no point in |
| W1:24.4 | concerned. The emphasis should be on uncovering the outcome you | want. You will quickly realize that you have a number of goals in |
| W1:25.4 | in your immediate vicinity. What you do not understand is what you | want to reach him for. And it is this that makes your contact with |
| W1:27.2 | that some sort of sacrifice is being asked of you when you say you | want to see above all else. If you become uneasy about the lack of |
| W1:27.7 | The real question is how often will you remember? How much do you | want today's idea to be true? Answer one of these questions, and you |
| W1:28.2 | wonder why it is important to say, for example, “Above all else I | want to see this table differently.” In itself it is not important at |
| W1:28.3 | When you say, “Above all else I | want to see this table differently,” you are making a commitment to |
| W1:28.4 | ask questions and receive the answers. In saying, “Above all else I | want to see this table differently,” you are committing yourself to |
| W1:28.9 | Above all else, I | want to see this ______ differently. |
| W1:30.2 | we are trying to see in the world what is in our minds, and what we | want to recognize is there. Thus we are trying to join with what we |
| W1:32.1 | made it up. You will see it or not see it, as you wish. While you | want it, you will see it; when you no longer want it, it will not be |
| W1:32.1 | as you wish. While you want it, you will see it; when you no longer | want it, it will not be there for you to see. |
| W1:35.2 | are. That is because you surround yourself with the environment you | want. And you want it to protect the image of yourself that you have |
| W1:35.2 | because you surround yourself with the environment you want. And you | want it to protect the image of yourself that you have made. The |
| W1:38.6 | From time to time you may | want to vary this procedure and add some relevant thoughts of your |
| W1:39.5 | Longer and more frequent practice sessions are encouraged. If you | want to exceed the minimum requirements, more rather than longer |
| W1:40.2 | can practice quite well under almost any circumstance, if you really | want to. |
| W1:45.5 | try to understand that only what God would have us do is what we | want to do. And we will also try to remember that we cannot fail in |
| W1:48.1 | recognize this. But it is very difficult to recognize for those who | want illusions to be true. |
| W1:51.3 | willing to recognize the lack of validity in my judgments because I | want to see. My judgments have hurt me, and I do not want to see |
| W1:51.3 | because I want to see. My judgments have hurt me, and I do not | want to see according to them. |
| W1:51.6 | to defend a thought system which has hurt me and which I no longer | want. I am willing to let it go. |
| W1:56.3 | [27] Above all else I | want to see. Recognizing that what I see reflects what I think I am, |
| W1:56.4 | [28] Above all else I | want to see differently. The world I see holds my fearful self-image |
| W1:57.3 | of God. I was bitterly mistaken in this belief, which I no longer | want. The Son of God must be forever free. He is as God created him, |
| W1:61.4 | You will | want to think about this idea as often as possible today. It is the |
| W1:61.8 | periods may be longer than the rest if you find them helpful and | want to extend them. |
| W1:62.9 | I would remember this because I | want to be happy. |
| W1:65.11 | your conflicts once and for all, and the extent to which you really | want salvation in spite of your own foolish ideas to the contrary. |
| W1:65.13 | My only function is the one God gave me. I | want no other and I have no other. |
| W1:69.6 | to settle down in perfect stillness, remembering only how much you | want to reach the light in you today—now. Determine to go past the |
| W1:69.9 | In the shorter practice periods, which you will | want to do as often as possible in view of the importance of today's |
| W1:69.10 | the light of the world in me. I cannot see what I have hidden. Yet I | want to let it be revealed to me for my salvation and the salvation |
| W1:70.6 | God wants us to be healed, and we do not really | want to be sick, because it makes us unhappy. Therefore, in accepting |
| W1:70.6 | the idea for today, we are in agreement with God. He does not | want us to be sick. Neither do we. He wants us to be healed. So do we. |
| W1:70.13 | Since all illusions of salvation have failed you, surely you do not | want to remain in the clouds looking vainly for idols there when you |
| W1:73.6 | you and your salvation. The reason is very simple. Do you really | want to be in hell? Do you really want to weep and suffer and die? |
| W1:73.6 | is very simple. Do you really want to be in hell? Do you really | want to weep and suffer and die? Forget the ego's arguments which |
| W1:73.6 | prove all this is really Heaven. You know it is not so. You cannot | want this for yourself. There is a point beyond which illusions |
| W1:73.7 | Suffering is not happiness, and it is happiness you really | want. Such is your will in truth. And so salvation is your will as |
| W1:73.7 | is your will in truth. And so salvation is your will as well. You | want to succeed in what we are trying to do today. We undertake it |
| W1:73.8 | in it. You have no will that can really oppose it, and you do not | want to do so. Salvation is for you. Above all else you want the |
| W1:73.8 | you do not want to do so. Salvation is for you. Above all else you | want the freedom to remember who you really are. |
| W1:73.15 | practice periods, again make a declaration of what you really | want. Say: |
| W1:75.3 | forgiveness offers us. Today we will accept the new world as what we | want to see. We will be given what we desire. We will to see the |
| W1:75.4 | looking at the world which our forgiveness shows us. This is what we | want to see, and only this. Our single purpose makes our goal |

| W1:132.3 | free the future from all ancient thoughts of seeking what you do not | want to find. The present now remains the only time. Here in the |

| W1:164.9 | see the value your acceptance gives the world. But this you surely | want—you can exchange all suffering for joy this very day. Practice |
| W1:165.5 | desire. You need not be sure that you request the only thing you | want. But when you have received, you will be sure you have the |
| W1:I2.2 | words become of little consequence. You will be sure of what you | want and what is valueless. |
| W1:181.9 | we will behold a wholly sinless world. When seeing this is all we | want to see, when this is all we seek for in the name of true |
| W1:185.2 | changed should any two agree these words express the only thing they | want. |
| W1:185.5 | To mean you | want the peace of God is to renounce all dreams. For no one means |
| W1:185.7 | practicing to recognizing that we really mean the words we say. We | want the peace of God. This is no idle wish. These words do not |
| W1:185.10 | You | want the peace of God. And so do all who seem to seek for dreams. For |
| W1:185.10 | request with deep sincerity. For thus you reach to what they really | want and join your own intent with what they seek above all things, |
| W1:190.6 | to change your mind and choose the joy of God as what you really | want. Your Self is radiant in this holy joy, unchanged, unchanging, |
| W1:196.7 | to some extent to you. From there you can at least consider if you | want to go along this painful path. Until this shift has been |
| W1:196.9 | the most is your salvation. You are strong, and it is strength you | want. And you are free and glad of freedom. You have sought to be |
| W1:200.11 | in them. The peace of God is ours, and only this will we accept and | want. Peace be to us today. For we have found a simple, happy way to |
| W1:R6.9 | This thought I do not | want. I choose instead…. |
| W1:205.1 | [185] I | want the peace of God. The peace of God is everything I want. The |
| W1:205.1 | [185] I want the peace of God. The peace of God is everything I | want. The peace of God is my one goal; the aim of all my living here, |
| W2:225.1 | and You have given all Your love to me. I must return it, for I | want it mine in full awareness, blazing in my mind, and keeping it |
| W2:226.1 | But if I see no value in the world as I behold it, nothing that I | want to keep as mine or search for as a goal, it will depart from me. |
| W2:231.1 | or ever sought. For there is nothing else that I could ever really | want to find. Let me remember You. What else could I desire but the |
| W2:242.2 | wholly open minds. We do not ask for anything that we may think we | want. Give us what You would have received by us. You know all our |
| W2:242.2 | all our desires and our needs. And You will give us everything we | want and that will help us find the way to You. |
| W2:251.1 | what I need. All that I sought before I needed not and did not even | want. My only need I did not recognize. But now I see that I need |
| W2:251.1 | I everything that I could need. Now have I everything that I could | want. And now at last I find myself at peace. |
| W2:251.2 | denied ourselves You have restored, and only that is what we really | want. |
| W2:253.1 | What happens is what I desire. What does not occur is what I do not | want to happen. This must I accept. For thus am I led past this world |
| W2:254.2 | step back and look at them, and then we let them go. We do not | want what they would bring with them. And so we do not choose to keep |
| W2:257.1 | great depression. Let us therefore be determined to remember what we | want today that we may unify our thoughts and actions meaningfully |
| W2:258.2 | the way that leads to You. We have no goal but this. What could we | want but to remember You? What could we seek but our Identity? |

| W2:339.1 | bring him suffering. Let us resolve today to ask for what we really | want, and only this, that we may spend this day in fearlessness, |
| W2:347.1 | Father, I | want what goes against my will and do not want what is my will to |
| W2:347.1 | Father, I want what goes against my will and do not | want what is my will to have. Straighten my mind, my Father. It is |

| Tx:11.38 | It is surely obvious that no one | wants to find what would utterly defeat him. Being unable to love, |

| Tx:11.81 | memory of God cannot shine in a mind which has made it invisible and | wants to keep it so. For the memory of God can dawn only in a mind |
| Tx:12.1 | to get rid of guilt from its viewpoint only, for much as the ego | wants to retain guilt, you find it intolerable, since guilt stands in |
| Tx:12.68 | you. Ownership is a dangerous concept if it is left to you. The ego | wants to have things for salvation, for possession is its law. |
| Tx:15.3 | For it is as mistrustful of death as it is of life, and what it | wants for you it cannot tolerate. The ego wants you dead, but not |
| Tx:15.3 | it is of life, and what it wants for you it cannot tolerate. The ego | wants you dead, but not itself. The outcome of its strange religion |
| Tx:15.3 | out of its unwillingness for you to find peace even in the death it | wants for you, it offers you immortality in hell. It speaks to you of |
| Tx:15.70 | much prefer to attack directly and avoid delaying what it really | wants. Yet the ego acknowledges “reality” as it sees it and |
| Tx:15.71 | to the other and hates him for it. Yet this is what he thinks he | wants. He is not in love with the other at all. He merely believes he |
| Tx:15.73 | altar far exceeds your awareness of it. For what the ego really | wants, you do not realize. |
| Tx:16.62 | ego seeks does not include even one whole individual. For the ego | wants but part of him and sees only this part and nothing else. |
| Tx:17.58 | this disorganized approach is evident. The ego does not know what it | wants to come of it. It is aware of what it does not want, but only |
| Tx:18.73 | which would devour it, and the ocean terrifies the little ripple and | wants to swallow it. |
| Tx:19.22 | For sin has changed creation from an idea of God to an ideal the ego | wants; a world it rules, made up of bodies, mindless and capable of |

| Tx:20.6 | chosen home most carefully, making it ready to receive the gifts it | wants by offering them to those who come unto its chosen home or |
| Tx:20.39 | brother's value. Only the ego does this, but all it means is that it | wants the other for itself and therefore values him too little. What |
| Tx:20.48 | must be unholy, for what they are, it does not even see. It | wants them solely for the offerings on which its idols thrive. The |
| Tx:21.23 | Faith and desire go hand in hand, for everyone believes in what he | wants. |
| Tx:21.24 | already said that wishful thinking is how the ego deals with what it | wants to make it so. There is no better demonstration of the power of |
| Tx:21.88 | never fail to answer. God has already given him all that he really | wants. Yet what he is uncertain of, God cannot give. For he does not |
| Tx:22.30 | Reason can see the difference between sin and mistakes because it | wants correction. Therefore, it tells you what you thought was |
| Tx:22.46 | Consider what the ego | wants defenses for—always to justify what goes against the truth, |
| Tx:23.26 | Son. Think not the ego will enable you to find escape from what it | wants. That is the function of this course, which does not value what |
| Tx:23.32 | No one | wants madness, nor does anyone cling to his madness if he sees that |
| Tx:23.35 | It is a judgment that defeats itself, condemning what it says it | wants to save. Be not deceived when madness takes a form you think is |
| Tx:24.29 | be unforgiving, for that is what it is—a secret vow that what God | wants for you will never be and that you will oppose His Will |
| Tx:24.62 | bitterly does everyone tied to this world defend the specialness he | wants to be the truth! His wish is law unto him, and he obeys. |
| Tx:24.71 | not even like, but still a means to offer to the “father” what he | wants. Such is the travesty on God's creation. For as His Son's |
| Tx:25.44 | for. And who can say that he prefers the darkness and maintain he | wants to see? The wish to see calls down the grace of God upon your |
| Tx:25.58 | more desired as it proves to him that it is an alternative he really | wants. From this position does his sinfulness and all the sin he sees |
| Tx:30.54 | Appearances can but deceive the mind that | wants to be deceived. And you can make a simple choice that will |

| W1:49.3 | that in doing so we are joining our will with the Will of God. He | wants you to hear His Voice. He gave It to you to be heard. |
| W1:59.4 | God is my Source. I cannot see apart from Him. I can see what God | wants me to see. I cannot see anything else. Beyond His Will lie only |
| W1:62.4 | the day. It will help to make the day as happy for you as God | wants you to be. And it will help those around you as well as those |
| W1:70.4 | help. That is the way your mind has worked, but hardly His. He | wants you to be healed, and so He has kept the Source of healing |

| W1:100.8 | your part is to be happy. Only this is asked of you or anyone who | wants to take his place among God's messengers. Think what this |
| W1:121.4 | own projections rising to attack its miserable parody of life. It | wants to live, yet wishes it were dead. It wants forgiveness, yet it |
| W1:121.4 | parody of life. It wants to live, yet wishes it were dead. It | wants forgiveness, yet it sees no hope. It wants escape, yet can |

| W1:136.13 | your attempts to plan defenses which would alter it. Truth merely | wants to give you happiness, for such its purpose is. Perhaps it |
| W1:152.1 | nor fear nor think him sick unless these are the outcomes that he | wants. And no one dies without his own consent. Nothing occurs but |

| W1:131.14 | For several minutes | watch your mind and see, although your eyes are closed, the senseless |
| W1:151.13 | slow repeating of the thought with which the day begins. And then we | watch our thoughts, appealing silently to Him Who sees the elements |
| W1:161.12 | you are accustomed. See his face, his hands and feet, his clothing. | Watch him smile, and see familiar gestures which he makes so |
| W1:168.4 | For in grace you see a light that covers all the world in love and | watch fear disappear from every face as hearts rise up and claim the |

| Tx:I.3 | This course can therefore be summed up very simply in this | way: |
| Tx:1.18 | It is the maximal service one individual can render another. It is a | way of loving your neighbor as yourself. The doer recognizes his own |
| Tx:1.39 | 29. Miracles are a | way of earning release from fear. |
| Tx:1.48 | brothers, for this is the plan of the Atonement. Miracles are the | way in which minds which serve the spirit unite with Christ for the |
| Tx:1.59 | The miracle acknowledges all men as your brothers and mine. It is a | way of perceiving the universal mark of God in them. The specialness |
| Tx:1.64 | family, as you perceive both, so you will behave toward both. The | way to perceive for Golden Rule behavior is to look out from the |
| Tx:1.70 | that is upside down. Nor can anything which holds it that | way be really conducive to greater stability. |
| Tx:1.79 | statements in the Bible. It does not mean that I am in any | way separate or different from you except in time, which does not |
| Tx:1.89 | acquired by anyone unless he wants to learn it and believes in some | way that he needs it. While the concept of lack does not exist in the |
| Tx:1.102 | is limited or defined by what you want it to do. Relating is a | way of achieving an outcome. The danger of defenses lies in their |
| Tx:1.106 | reality according to false internal needs. Twist reality in any | way, and you are perceiving destructively. Reality was lost through |
| Tx:2.18 | the ability of anything which is not of God to affect you in any | way. |
| Tx:2.22 | negative device; it results in positive miscreation. That is the | way the mentally ill do employ it. But remember a very early thought |
| Tx:2.31 | Distantiation can be properly used as a | way of putting distance between yourself and what you should fly from. |
| Tx:2.42 | loss. This is the same mistake all the separated ones make in one | way or another. They cannot believe that a defense which cannot |
| Tx:2.43 | use for attack is lost. Since this means they can be used only one | way, they become much stronger and much more dependable. They no |
| Tx:2.47 | will realize that this is not true. Everything is limited in some | way by the manner of its creation. Free will can temporize and is |
| Tx:2.48 | begins to recognize, however dimly, that there must be a better | way. As this recognition becomes more firmly established, it becomes |
| Tx:2.49 | mind then realizes with increasing certainty that delay is only a | way of increasing unnecessary pain, which it need not tolerate at |
| Tx:2.59 | if it is truly used, it will inevitably be expressed in whatever | way is most helpful to the receiver[, not the giver]. This means that |
| Tx:2.69 | This is because healing rests on charity, and charity is a | way of perceiving the perfection of another even if he cannot |
| Tx:2.70 | sense in which right-mindedness can now be attained. Charity is a | way of looking at another as if he had already gone far beyond his |
| Tx:2.71 | The | way in which both of these perceptions are stated clearly implies |
| Tx:2.94 | used to miraculous thinking, but they can be trained to think that | way. All miracle workers need that kind of training. I cannot let |
| Tx:3.6 | 3. Another | way of stating the above point is: Never confuse right- with |
| Tx:3.7 | an affirmation of the truth. Only right-mindedness can create in a | way that has any real effect. Pragmatically, what has no real effect |
| Tx:3.9 | at all. “Father forgive them for they know not what they do” in no | way evaluates what they do. It is strictly limited to an appeal to |
| Tx:3.14 | beating a child. Can you believe that the Father really thinks this | way? It is so essential that all such thinking be dispelled that we |
| Tx:3.15 | believe in karmic retribution. His Divine Mind does not create that | way. He does not hold the evil deeds of a man even against himself. |
| Tx:3.21 | frightened people are apt to be vicious. Sacrificing another in any | way is a clear cut violation of God's own injunction that man should |
| Tx:3.22 | “Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God” is another | way of saying the same thing. |
| Tx:3.28 | They do not suffer from the distortions of the separated ones. The | way to correct all such distortions is to withdraw your faith from |
| Tx:3.31 | and this means that it is not whole. The miracle is a | way of perceiving, not of knowing. It is the right answer to a |
| Tx:3.44 | willed only to know. Afterwards it willed ambiguously, and the only | way out of ambiguity is clear perception. The mind returns to its |
| Tx:3.49 | it under my guidance. Only your misperceptions stand in your own | way. Without them your choice is certain. Sane perception induces |
| Tx:3.56 | Prayer is a | way of asking for something. Prayer is the medium of miracles, but |
| Tx:3.62 | does not matter in the end whether you judge right or wrong. Either | way, you are placing your belief in the unreal. This cannot be |
| Tx:3.63 | you and your brothers are, you will realize that judging them in any | way is without meaning. In fact, their meaning is lost to you |
| Tx:3.70 | question of authorship. All fear comes ultimately and sometimes by | way of very devious routes from the denial of Authorship. The offense |
| Tx:3.71 | There is no man who does not feel that he is imprisoned in some | way. If this is the result of his own free will, he must regard his |
| Tx:3.74 | absolutely no sense. The whole picture is one in which man acts in a | way he himself realizes is self-destructive but which he does not |
| Tx:4.26 | only perceive it to see that it does happen. If it can occur that | way in the present, why is it surprising that it occurred that way in |
| Tx:4.26 | that way in the present, why is it surprising that it occurred that | way in the past? Psychology rests on the principle of the continuity |
| Tx:4.26 | can work, provided you fully recognize that it need not work that | way. Why are you surprised that something happened in the dim past |
| Tx:4.28 | necessary, you will merely know God. Belief that there is another | way is the loftiest idea of which ego thinking is capable. That is |
| Tx:4.33 | The ego believes it is completely on its own, which is merely another | way of describing how it originated. This is such a fearful state |
| Tx:4.40 | The more recent ecological emphases are but another ingenious | way of trying to impose order on chaos. We have already credited the |
| Tx:4.45 | In its characteristically upside-down | way, the ego has taken the impulses from the superconscious and |
| Tx:4.69 | and one to which it devotes its maximum vigilance. This is not the | way a balanced mind holds together. Its control is unconscious. The |
| Tx:4.75 | as it does with all issues that touch on the real question in any | way. By compromising in connection with all tangential questions, it |
| Tx:4.87 | because the process itself demonstrates that there is another | way. Conditioning by rewards has always been more effective than |
| Tx:4.89 | than yours in me at the moment, but it will not always be that | way. Your mission is very simple. You have been chosen to live so as |
| Tx:4.93 | ego and joy with the Soul. You have conditioned yourselves the other | way around. A far greater reward, however, will break through any |
| Tx:4.96 | it perceives as related. In contrast the Soul reacts in the same | way to everything it knows is true and does not respond at all to |
| Tx:4.103 | confusion than to anything else because it is too often misused as a | way of exerting the ego's domination over other egos, rather than as |
| Tx:4.105 | of others if in a situation calling for healing you think of it this | way: |
| Tx:5.12 | Children because they had made them, but He also blessed them with a | way of thinking that could raise their perceptions until they became |
| Tx:5.15 | it does not engender knowledge, it does not obstruct it in any | way. [Third, it is an unequivocal call to love. Every other voice is |
| Tx:5.16 | it is the point at which the shift occurs. Finally, it points the | way beyond the healing which it brings and leads the mind beyond its |
| Tx:5.21 | Guidance is evaluative, because it implies that there is a right | way and also a wrong way, one to be chosen and the other to be |
| Tx:5.21 | because it implies that there is a right way and also a wrong | way, one to be chosen and the other to be avoided. By choosing one, |
| Tx:5.23 | is different. Choosing means divided will. The Holy Spirit is one | way of choosing. This way is in you because there is also another |
| Tx:5.23 | means divided will. The Holy Spirit is one way of choosing. This | way is in you because there is also another way. God did not leave |
| Tx:5.23 | way of choosing. This way is in you because there is also another | way. God did not leave His Children comfortless, even though they |
| Tx:5.23 | is stronger than the call to depart, but it speaks in a different | way. |
| Tx:5.24 | because of what it reminds you of. It brings to your mind the other | way, remaining quiet even in the midst of the turmoil you have made |
| Tx:5.26 | The Holy Spirit is the | way in which God's Will can be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Both |
| Tx:5.28 | unequivocal, because it hears only one voice and answers in only one | way. You are the light of the world with me. Rest does not come from |
| Tx:5.29 | Biblical statement, “My yoke is easy and my burden light” in this | way: “Let us join together, for my message is light.” |
| Tx:5.30 | you had grown vaguely aware of the fact that there is another | way or another Voice. Having given this invitation to the Holy |
| Tx:5.32 | The | way to learn to know your brother is by perceiving the Holy Spirit in |
| Tx:5.40 | separation can be given away, just as the idea of unity can. Either | way, the idea will be strengthened in the mind of the giver. |
| Tx:5.46 | the Atonement, which I have repeatedly asked you to do, is always a | way out of fear. This does not mean that you can safely fail to |
| Tx:5.50 | to every part. It is shared because it is loving. Sharing is God's | way of creating and also yours. Your ego can keep you in exile from |
| Tx:5.54 | He leads you back to God where you belong, and how can you find this | way except by taking your brother with you? |
| Tx:5.72 | your free decision at every possible moment and in every possible | way. And as its maker, you recognize what it can do because you gave |
| Tx:5.81 | only infinite patience can produce immediate effects. This is the | way in which time is exchanged for eternity. Infinite patience calls |
| Tx:5.94 | defensive because you expect attack. The decision to react in this | way, however, is yours and can therefore be undone. It cannot be |
| Tx:6.1 | have been attacked, that [the attack was unjust, and] you are in no | way responsible. Given these three wholly irrational premises, the |
| Tx:6.2 | The | way to undo an insane conclusion is to consider the sanity of the |
| Tx:6.8 | You might remember, however, when you do choose to react that | way, that I was persecuted as the world judges and did not share this |
| Tx:6.13 | by them. That was their only purpose, and that is the only | way in which I can be perceived as the Way, the Truth, and the Light. |
| Tx:6.13 | purpose, and that is the only way in which I can be perceived as the | Way, the Truth, and the Light. |
| Tx:6.14 | is one, and anyone who listens is inevitably led to demonstrate His | way for all. You are not persecuted, nor was I. You are not asked to |
| Tx:6.19 | If you interpret the crucifixion in any other | way, you are using it as a weapon for assault rather than as the call |
| Tx:6.29 | one need which in this world is universal. To perceive yourself this | way is the only way in which you can find happiness in the world. |
| Tx:6.29 | this world is universal. To perceive yourself this way is the only | way in which you can find happiness in the world. That is because it |
| Tx:6.30 | perfect inclusion in Him, Who alone is perfect. To deny this in any | way is to deny yourself and Him since it is impossible to accept one |
| Tx:6.31 | perception and knowledge. By enabling you to use perception in a | way that parallels knowledge, you will ultimately meet it and know |
| Tx:6.33 | perception and lead it toward God by making it parallel to God's | way of thinking and thus guarantee their ultimate meeting. This |
| Tx:6.36 | This is the | way in which you must perceive God's creations, bringing all of your |
| Tx:6.43 | set you free and keep you so, as others learn it of you. The only | way to have peace is to teach peace. By learning it through |
| Tx:6.47 | has called upon Him for help at one time or another and in one | way or another and has been answered. Since the Holy Spirit answers |
| Tx:6.51 | The time that was spent on questioning in the dream has given | way to creation and to its eternity. |
| Tx:6.53 | who will strengthen your command and never detract from it in any | way. You therefore retain the central place in your perceived |
| Tx:6.68 | necessary that you turn in that direction. Having chosen to go that | way, you place yourself in charge of the journey, where you and only |
| Tx:6.75 | The | way out of conflict between two opposing thought systems is clearly |
| Tx:6.81 | You are only beginning this step now, but you have started on this | way by realizing that only one way is possible. You do not yet |
| Tx:6.81 | now, but you have started on this way by realizing that only one | way is possible. You do not yet realize this consistently, and so |
| Tx:6.88 | You create by what you are, but this is what you must learn. The | way to learn it is inherent in the third step, which brings together |
| Tx:6.94 | which must be healed. Your vigilance against this sickness is the | way to heal it. Once your mind is healed, it radiates health and |
| Tx:7.2 | creative thought proceed from you to your creations. Only in this | way can all creative power extend outward. God's accomplishments are |
| Tx:7.4 | with God is to create like Him. God does not limit His gifts in any | way. You are His gifts, and so your gifts must be like His. Your |
| Tx:7.9 | himself as not whole and therefore in need. If you too see him this | way, you are seeing him as if he were absent from the Kingdom or |
| Tx:7.17 | forget or relinquish one to understand the other. This is the only | way you can learn consistency so that you can finally be consistent. |
| Tx:7.23 | This is because they are channelized in one direction or in one | way. Ultimately, then, they all contribute to one result, and by so |
| Tx:7.23 | You can excel in many different ways, but you can equalize in one | way only. Equality is not a variable state, by definition. |
| Tx:7.25 | anyone in any situation. Because I am always with you, you are the | way and the truth and the light. You did not make this power, any |
| Tx:7.34 | the laws of the ego. We said before that forgetting is merely a | way of remembering better. It is therefore not the opposite of |
| Tx:7.34 | incorrect perception does. Properly perceived, it can be used as a | way out of conflict, as all proper perception can. |
| Tx:7.35 | Spirit still knows that your forgetting must be translated into a | way of remembering and not perceived as a separate ability which |
| Tx:7.35 | as a separate ability which opposes an opposite. That is the | way in which the ego tries to use all abilities, since its goal is |
| Tx:7.36 | is because of this that their goals can never be reconciled in any | way or to any extent. The ego always seeks to divide and separate. |
| Tx:7.36 | because the Holy Spirit sees no order of healing. Healing is the | way to undo the belief in differences, being the only way of |
| Tx:7.36 | Healing is the way to undo the belief in differences, being the only | way of perceiving the Sonship without this belief. This perception is |
| Tx:7.37 | not knowing this, you do not know what you are. Healing, then, is a | way of approaching knowledge by thinking in accordance with the laws |
| Tx:7.38 | You are therefore in Him since your being is His. Healing is a | way of forgetting the sense of danger the ego has induced in you by |
| Tx:7.48 | This in no | way contradicts the changelessness of mind as God created it, but you |
| Tx:7.49 | in him. As you can hear two voices, so you can see in two ways. One | way shows you an image, or better, an idol which you may worship out |
| Tx:7.57 | ego resolves this completely insane dilemma in a completely insane | way. It does not perceive its existence as threatened by projecting |
| Tx:7.72 | need is yours. You need the blessing you can offer him. There is no | way for you to have it except by giving it. This is the law of God, |
| Tx:7.74 | but they are powerful because they are mental judgments. The only | way to dispel illusions is to withdraw all investment from them, and |
| Tx:7.75 | apart from Him, and you do do nothing apart from Him. Keep His | way to remember yourselves and teach His way, lest you forget |
| Tx:7.75 | apart from Him. Keep His way to remember yourselves and teach His | way, lest you forget yourselves. Give only honor to the Sons of the |
| Tx:7.80 | know Him. The peace of God is understanding this. There is only one | way out of the world's thinking, just as there was only one way into |
| Tx:7.80 | only one way out of the world's thinking, just as there was only one | way into it. Understand totally by understanding totality. |
| Tx:7.82 | keeps it in the Mind of God. To the ego, the law is perceived as a | way of getting rid of something it does not want. To the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:7.86 | about another without perpetuating it about yourself. There is no | way out of this, because it is impossible to fragment the mind. |
| Tx:7.103 | you and with your strength. As long as you avoid His guidance in any | way, you want to be weak. Yet weakness is frightening. What else, |
| Tx:7.105 | may seem to be. The whole separation lies in this fallacy. The only | way out of the fallacy is to decide that you do not have to decide |
| Tx:8.1 | by your demands to know what you do not know. This is actually a | way of holding on to deprivation. You cannot reasonably object to |
| Tx:8.30 | is obvious when you consider what healing is for. Healing is the | way in which the separation is overcome. Separation is overcome by |
| Tx:8.39 | and therefore cannot unite with yours. Our union is therefore the | way to renounce the ego in yourself. The truth in both of us is |
| Tx:8.40 | or you will try to go in different directions and will lose the | way. |
| Tx:8.41 | The ego's | way is not mine, but it is also not yours. The Holy Spirit has one |
| Tx:8.41 | with the journey because it has none, [and] the journey is the | way to what is true. Leave all deception behind and reach beyond all |
| Tx:8.48 | actually leaves nothing. [You can make yourself powerless only in a | way that has no meaning at all.] When you think you are unwilling to |
| Tx:8.53 | experience depression. When a Child of God thinks of himself in this | way, he is belittling himself and seeing his brothers as similarly |
| Tx:8.55 | in communion, which has value until communion is. This is God's | way of making unlimited what you have limited. The Holy Spirit does |
| Tx:8.57 | him, but you must have attacked yourself first. Do not see him this | way for your own salvation, which must bring him his. Do not allow |
| Tx:8.63 | The removal of blocks, then, is the only | way to guarantee help and healing. Help and healing are the normal |
| Tx:8.76 | Sickness is a | way of demonstrating that you can be hurt. It is a witness to your |
| Tx:8.76 | is no point in trying to make sense out of meaningless data. Any | way you handle them results in nothing. The more complicated the |
| Tx:8.82 | unconsciousness out of fear of consciousness. This is a pathetic | way of trying not to know by rendering the faculties for knowing |
| Tx:8.89 | The unification of purpose, then, is the Holy Spirit's only | way of healing. This is because it is the only level at which healing |
| Tx:8.89 | re-establishing of meaning in a chaotic thought system is the only | way to heal it. We have said that your task is only to meet the |
| Tx:8.110 | As you hear him, you will hear me. Listening to truth is the only | way you can hear it now and finally know it. |
| Tx:8.114 | Do not ask for blessings without blessing them, for only in this | way can you learn how blessed you are. By following this way, you are |
| Tx:8.114 | in this way can you learn how blessed you are. By following this | way, you are looking for the truth in you. This is not going beyond |
| Tx:8.118 | denied Him nothing, and so you can share everything. This is the | way, and the only way, to have His answer because His answer is all |
| Tx:8.118 | and so you can share everything. This is the way, and the only | way, to have His answer because His answer is all you can ask for and |
| Tx:9.5 | Holy Spirit, you must do this with his. Unless this becomes the one | way in which you handle all errors, you cannot understand how all |
| Tx:9.6 | it, but because you are following the wrong guide and will lose your | way. |
| Tx:9.7 | as real, and you have attacked yourself. If you would find your | way and keep it, see only truth beside you, for you walk together. |
| Tx:9.9 | Atonement is for all, because it is the | way to undo the belief that anything is for you alone. To forgive is |
| Tx:9.10 | of what you are. This limitation is where all errors arise. The | way to undo them, therefore, is not of you but for you. |
| Tx:9.24 | and one which it usually does note, even in its confusion. If the | way to counteract fear is to reduce the importance of the fearer, how |
| Tx:9.36 | You cannot perform a miracle for yourself, because miracles are a | way of giving acceptance and receiving it. In time, the giving comes |
| Tx:9.39 | peace unless you accept the Atonement, because the Atonement is the | way to peace. The reason is very simple and so obvious that it is |
| Tx:9.69 | your acceptance. Give up gladly everything that would stand in the | way of your remembering, for God is in your memory, and His Voice |
| Tx:9.72 | you are, it is an attack on your identification. Attack is thus the | way in which your identification is lost because, when you attack, |
| Tx:9.87 | cannot be perceived as partly sick, because to perceive it that | way is not to perceive it at all. If the Sonship is one, it is one in |
| Tx:10.3 | the ego's thought system, the darker and more obscure becomes the | way. Yet even the little spark in your mind is enough to lighten it. |
| Tx:10.23 | Unless you have hurt yourselves, you could never suffer in any | way, for that is not God's Will for His Son. Pain is not of Him, for |
| Tx:10.26 | The | way is not hard, but it is very different. Yours is the way of pain, |
| Tx:10.26 | The way is not hard, but it is very different. Yours is the | way of pain, of which God knows nothing. That way is hard indeed and |
| Tx:10.26 | Yours is the way of pain, of which God knows nothing. That | way is hard indeed and very lonely. Fear and grief are your guests, |
| Tx:10.26 | are your guests, and they go with you and abide with you on the | way. But the dark journey is not the way of God's Son. Walk in light, |
| Tx:10.26 | you and abide with you on the way. But the dark journey is not the | way of God's Son. Walk in light, and do not see the dark companions, |
| Tx:10.26 | the light. But deny them instead, for the light is here, and the | way is clear. |
| Tx:10.27 | and gave him the light that shines in him. You will never lose your | way, for God leads you. When you wander, you but undertake a journey |
| Tx:10.27 | undertake a journey which is not real. The dark companions, the dark | way, are all illusions. Turn toward the light, for the little spark |
| Tx:10.39 | from illusions unless he looks at them, for not looking is the | way they are protected. There is no need to shrink from illusions, |
| Tx:10.40 | What is healing but the removal of all that stands in the | way of knowledge? And how else can one dispel illusions except by |
| Tx:10.44 | from the ego is the natural outcome of its central belief, and the | way to undo its results is merely to recognize that their source is |
| Tx:10.84 | is his healing and yours. Christ is the Son of God, who is in no | way separate from His Father, whose every thought is as loving as the |
| Tx:11.1 | You have been told not to make error real, and the | way to do this is very simple. If you want to believe in error, you |
| Tx:11.7 | because they are for you. Do not attempt to “help” a brother in your | way, for you cannot help yourselves. But hear his call for the help |
| Tx:11.15 | the healing of your brother as the healing of yourself is thus the | way to remember God. For you forgot your brothers with Him, and God's |
| Tx:11.15 | brothers with Him, and God's answer to your forgetting is but the | way to remember. |
| Tx:11.19 | for you must be yours. Do not let your hatred stand in the | way of love, for nothing can withstand the love of Christ for His |
| Tx:11.22 | it, not by minimizing it, not by denying its full import in any | way—this is what you will really see. You cannot lay aside the |
| Tx:11.28 | through peace. This is the only thing that can be saved and the only | way to save it. Any response other than love arises from a confusion |
| Tx:11.31 | to what is inward, and therefore you would have to perceive it this | way. That is why you must realize that your hatred is in your mind |
| Tx:11.36 | and this is always its central teaching. It never puts it this | way; on the contrary, everyone who believes that the ego is salvation |
| Tx:11.51 | it is merely ridiculous if you look at it. Is it possible that the | way to achieve a goal is not to attain it? Resign now as your own |
| Tx:11.52 | is limitless because it will lead you to God. You can teach the | way to Him and learn it if you follow the Teacher Who knows it and |
| Tx:11.79 | it is. You who knew have forgotten, and unless He had given you a | way to remember, you would have condemned yourselves to oblivion. |
| Tx:11.84 | which is forever the only reality. The Atonement is but the | way back to what was never lost. Your Father could not cease to love |
| Tx:11.93 | everyone is seeking to escape from the prison he has made, and the | way to find release is not denied him. Being in him, he has found it. |
| Tx:11.96 | because you are eternal and always must be now. Guilt, then, is a | way of holding past and future in your minds to ensure the ego's |
| Tx:11.97 | the guiltlessness of the Son of God as yours is therefore God's | way of reminding you of His Son and what he is in truth. For God has |
| Tx:11.99 | guilt. For attack makes guilt real, and if it is real, there is no | way to overcome it. The Holy Spirit dispels it simply through the |
| Tx:12.1 | to retain guilt, you find it intolerable, since guilt stands in the | way of your remembering God, Whose pull is so strong that you cannot |
| Tx:12.42 | Do not seek vision through your eyes, for you made your | way of seeing that you might see in darkness, and in this you are |
| Tx:12.43 | but two emotions, and one you made and one was given you. Each is a | way of seeing, and different worlds arise from their different |
| Tx:12.66 | and His Son returns his Father's love forever. The real world is the | way that leads you to remembrance of this one thing that is wholly |
| Tx:12.70 | what you need. For He will give you all things that do not block the | way to light. And what else could you need? In time He gives you all |
| Tx:12.75 | every temptation that would hold you back. We walk together on the | way to quietness that is the gift of God. Hold me dear, for what |
| Tx:13.21 | He cannot use them unto your release. No one who would unite in any | way with anyone for his own salvation will find it in that strange |
| Tx:13.25 | As long as you believe that guilt is justified in any | way in anyone whatever he may do, you will not look within, where you |
| Tx:13.29 | Release from guilt as you would be released. There is no other | way to look within and see the light of love shining as steadily and |
| Tx:13.32 | that you have ever held against him has touched his innocence in any | way. His shining purity, wholly untouched by guilt and wholly loving, |
| Tx:13.62 | in the Holy Spirit's plan to free you from the past and open up the | way to freedom for you. For truth is true. What else could ever be or |
| Tx:13.65 | you be happy. There is no conflict here. To wish for guilt in any | way, in any form, will lose appreciation of the value of your |
| Tx:13.71 | The | way to teach this simple lesson is merely this: guiltlessness is |
| Tx:13.78 | be the only Guide that you would follow to salvation. He knows the | way and leads you gladly on it. With Him you will not fail to learn |
| Tx:13.81 | surely, and with love for everyone who will be touched in any | way by the decision. And everyone will be. Would you take unto |
| Tx:13.84 | He leadeth me and knows the | way, which I know not. Yet He will never keep from me what He would |
| Tx:14.4 | them unable to communicate because each sees the other unlike the | way he sees himself. God can communicate only to the Holy Spirit in |
| Tx:14.10 | Teachers of innocence, each in his own | way, have joined together, taking their part in the unified |
| Tx:14.27 | what you do. You will realize that salvation must come to you this | way if you consider what dissociation is. Dissociation is a distorted |
| Tx:14.30 | you join your perception to His. Joining with Him in seeing is the | way in which you learn to share with Him the interpretation of |
| Tx:14.50 | Spirit teaches by giving you shining examples to show you that your | way of ordering is wrong, but that a better way is offered you. |
| Tx:14.50 | to show you that your way of ordering is wrong, but that a better | way is offered you. |
| Tx:14.64 | you have learned. When your peace is threatened or disturbed in any | way, say to yourself, |
| Tx:14.74 | who perceives the need for peace and who would have it. Make | way for peace, and it will come. For understanding is in you, and |
| Tx:15.2 | the future. This is not so. For the Holy Spirit uses time in His own | way and is not bound by it. [Time is His friend in teaching. It does |
| Tx:15.7 | in guilt must lead to the belief in hell, and always does. The only | way in which the ego allows the fear of hell to be experienced is to |
| Tx:15.20 | it with perfect certainty. No gift of God is recognized in any other | way. You can practice the mechanics of the holy instant and will |
| Tx:15.36 | bring it nearer. Think not that you can find salvation in your own | way and have it. Give over every plan that you have made for your |
| Tx:15.41 | you would prefer to have private thoughts and keep them? The only | way you could do that is to deny the perfect communication that makes |
| Tx:15.41 | in private thoughts, known only to yourself, you think you find a | way to keep what you would have alone and share what you would share. |
| Tx:15.54 | brothers join in Christ. Those who are joined in Christ are in no | way separate. For Christ is the Self the Sonship shares, as God |
| Tx:15.56 | total commitments, yet they do not conflict with one another in any | way. Perfect faith in each one for its ability to satisfy you |
| Tx:15.61 | he gladly wills, it is impossible that he be bound or limited in any | way. In this instant, he is as free as God would have him be. For the |
| Tx:15.68 | that the ego attempts to maintain and increase guilt, but in such a | way that you do not recognize what it would do to you. For it is the |
| Tx:15.70 | In one | way or another, every relationship which the ego makes is based on |
| Tx:15.75 | your minds remain your own. The union of bodies thus becomes the | way in which you would keep minds apart. For bodies cannot forgive. |
| Tx:16.1 | very useful to the Holy Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His | way. [His way is very different.] He does not understand suffering |
| Tx:16.1 | to the Holy Spirit, provided you let Him use it in His way. [His | way is very different.] He does not understand suffering and would |
| Tx:16.3 | relationship. You will neither to hurt it nor to heal it in your own | way. You do not know what healing is. All you have learned of empathy |
| Tx:16.8 | you keep them separate and secret from each other. That is not the | way, for it leads not to light and truth. No needs will long be left |
| Tx:16.11 | the truth of just a little part of the whole. And this is but a | way of avoiding or looking away from the whole to what you think you |
| Tx:16.11 | you might be better able to understand. For this is but another | way in which you would still try to keep understanding to yourself. A |
| Tx:16.11 | try to keep understanding to yourself. A better and far more helpful | way to think of miracles is this: You do not understand them, either |
| Tx:16.12 | and of the whole in every part is perfectly natural. For it is the | way God thinks, and what is natural to Him is natural to you. Wholly |
| Tx:16.41 | me firmly away from all illusions now, and let nothing stand in the | way of truth. We will take the last foolish journey away from truth |
| Tx:16.42 | There is no veil the love of God in us together cannot lift. The | way to truth is open. Follow it with me. |
| Tx:16.60 | not, or love will be unable to find you and comfort you. There is a | way in which the Holy Spirit asks your help if you would have His. |
| Tx:16.68 | the love of God and you. And may the holy instant speed you on the | way, as it will surely do if you but let it come to you. |
| Tx:16.70 | all enter into the special relationship, which becomes a | way in which you seek to restore your wounded self-esteem. What basis |
| Tx:17.4 | some to another. And so you learn to deal with part of truth in one | way and in another way the other part. To fragment truth is to |
| Tx:17.4 | so you learn to deal with part of truth in one way and in another | way the other part. To fragment truth is to destroy it by rendering |
| Tx:17.19 | to it, the “better” it becomes. Thus, the attempt at union becomes a | way of excluding even the one with whom the union was sought. For it |
| Tx:17.22 | do gladly if you but let Him hold the spark before you to light your | way and make it clear to you. God's Son is one. Whom God has joined |
| Tx:17.46 | the goal. Until this happy solution is seen and accepted as the only | way out of the conflict, the relationship seems to be severely |
| Tx:17.51 | are very new in the ways of salvation and think you have lost your | way. Your way is lost, but think not this is loss. In your newness, |
| Tx:17.51 | new in the ways of salvation and think you have lost your way. Your | way is lost, but think not this is loss. In your newness, remember |
| Tx:17.61 | you are at peace. Here again, you see the opposite of the ego's | way of looking, for the ego believes the situation brings the |
| Tx:17.64 | would have been meaningful to you because the interference in the | way of understanding would have been removed. To remove the problem |
| Tx:18.7 | is sanity; insanity is outside you. You but believe it is the other | way; that truth is outside and error and guilt within. Your little |
| Tx:18.15 | is so outrageously violated in them becomes apparent. Yet they are a | way of looking at the world and changing it to suit the ego better. |
| Tx:18.24 | in bringing truth to illusion, reality to fantasy, have walked the | way of dreams. For you have gone from waking to sleeping and on and |
| Tx:18.26 | If you knew Who walks beside you on this | way which you have chosen, fear would be impossible. You do not know |
| Tx:18.31 | led nowhere. You have found each other and will light each other's | way. And from this light will the Great Rays extend back into |
| Tx:18.36 | to those who offer it nothing more than simple willingness to make | way for it. Purification is of God alone and therefore for you. |
| Tx:18.63 | that do not involve its comfort or protection or enjoyment in some | way? This makes it an end and not a means in your interpretation, and |
| Tx:18.67 | Your | way will be different, not in purpose but in means. A holy |
| Tx:18.68 | is the ultimate release which everyone will one day find in his own | way, at his own time. We do not need this time. Time has been saved |
| Tx:18.69 | you slip past centuries of effort and escape from time. This is the | way in which sin loses all attraction right now. For here is time |
| Tx:18.74 | it could not survive apart from them. And what it thinks it is in no | way changes its total dependence on them for its being. Its whole |
| Tx:18.75 | house a separate mind, a disconnected thought living alone and in no | way joined to the Thought by which it was created. Each tiny fragment |
| Tx:18.79 | green and deep and quiet, offering rest to those who lost their | way and wander in the dust. Give them a place of refuge, prepared by |
| Tx:18.90 | the sun. Its impenetrable appearance is wholly an illusion. It gives | way softly to the mountain tops which rise above it and has no power |
| Tx:18.95 | which learning cannot go, will go beyond it but in a different | way. Where learning ends there God begins, for learning ends before |
| Tx:19.7 | seen as totally irreconcilable with truth in any respect or in any | way. |
| Tx:19.16 | an idea is free, incapable of being kept in prison or limited in any | way except by the mind that thought it. For it remains joined to its |
| Tx:19.19 | is nothing he can do that would really change his reality in any | way nor make him really guilty. That is what sin would do, for such |
| Tx:19.29 | down from a long, unbroken line along another plane but which in no | way breaks the line or interferes with its smooth continuousness. |
| Tx:19.37 | to others to bring them gently in [has already begun. This is the | way in which He will bring means and goal in line. The peace He laid |
| Tx:19.56 | Atonement is achieved through murder. Salvation is looked upon as a | way by which the Son of God was killed instead of you. |
| Tx:19.67 | imprison me behind the obstacles you raise to freedom and bar my | way to you. Yet it is not possible to keep away One Who is there |
| Tx:19.76 | what is sent through Him returns to Him, seeking itself along the | way and finding what it seeks. So does the ego find the death it |
| Tx:19.83 | your acceptance the power to release from corruption. What better | way to teach the first and fundamental principle in a course on |
| Tx:19.94 | obstacle that peace must flow across is surmounted in just the same | way; the fear that raised it yields to the love beneath, and so the |
| Tx:19.101 | share it. And all the pity and forgiveness that would heal it gives | way to fear. Brothers, you need forgiveness of each other, for you |
| Tx:19.107 | garden of seeming agony and death. So will we prepare together the | way unto the resurrection of God's Son and let him rise again to glad |
| Tx:20.3 | in peace beyond it, with the light of his own innocence lighting his | way to his redemption and release. Hold him not back with thorns and |
| Tx:20.3 | let the whiteness of your shining gift of lilies speed him on his | way to resurrection. |
| Tx:20.13 | have your holy brother lead you there? His innocence will light your | way, offering you its guiding light and sure protection, and shining |
| Tx:20.13 | brings you joy. We go beyond the veil of fear, lighting each other's | way. The holiness that leads us is within us, as is our home. So will |
| Tx:20.14 | This is the | way to Heaven and to the peace of Easter, in which we join in glad |
| Tx:20.15 | nor forsake the savior from his pain. And gladly will you walk the | way of innocence together, singing as you behold the open door of |
| Tx:20.16 | is undertaken. For this reduces it at once to mere perception—a | way of looking in which certainty is lost and doubt has entered. To |
| Tx:20.19 | —a world of murder and attack through which you thread your timid | way through constant dangers, alone and frightened, hoping at most |
| Tx:20.35 | while you are in time, there is so much that must be done before the | way to peace is open. Perhaps this seems impossible to you. But ask |
| Tx:20.36 | He will go before you making straight your path and leaving in your | way no stones to trip on and no obstacles to bar your way. Nothing |
| Tx:20.36 | in your way no stones to trip on and no obstacles to bar your | way. Nothing you need will be denied you. Not one seeming difficulty |
| Tx:20.54 | exchanged in gladness for the holy one of safe return. Here is the | way to true relationships held gently open, through which you walk |
| Tx:21.4 | which doors are open, and you can see where safety lies and which | way leads to darkness, which to light. Judgment will always give you |
| Tx:21.6 | their world by their adjustments to it. They think they know their | way about in it. They learned it, not through joyous lessons, but |
| Tx:21.39 | and “deprivation” are opposites and cannot meaningfully join in any | way. It is like saying that the moon and sun are one because they |
| Tx:21.48 | unafraid. Little children, innocent of sin, follow in gladness the | way to certainty. Be not held back by fear's insane insistence that |
| Tx:21.48 | is not made meaningful by repetition and by clamor. The quiet | way is open. Follow it happily and question not what must be so. |
| Tx:21.58 | fail to lead to changed perception. And in this change is room made | way for vision. Vision extends beyond itself, as does the purpose |
| Tx:21.59 | This you could spare him and yourself. For reason would not make | way for correction in you alone. |
| Tx:21.72 | and to act out their dream. How would an army act in dreams? Any | way at all. It could be seen attacking anyone with anything. Dreams |
| Tx:22.1 | the same, made by the same, and forgiven for its maker in the same | way. |
| Tx:22.16 | bring the same amount of misery, though each one seems to be the | way to lose the misery the other brings. Every illusion carries pain |
| Tx:22.18 | cannot change. But sorrow can be turned to joy, for time gives | way to the eternal. Only the timeless must remain unchanged, but |
| Tx:22.18 | Yet if the change be real and not imagined, illusions must give | way to truth and not to other dreams that are but equally unreal. |
| Tx:22.19 | Reason will tell you that the only | way to escape from misery is to recognize it and go the other way. |
| Tx:22.19 | only way to escape from misery is to recognize it and go the other | way. Truth is the same and misery the same, but they are different |
| Tx:22.19 | and misery the same, but they are different from each other in every | way, in every instance, and without exception. To believe that one |
| Tx:22.20 | the belief in sin must be eternal. Yet reason looks on this another | way, for reason sees the source of an idea as what will make it true |
| Tx:22.30 | this belief, and reason will be unable to see your errors and make | way for their correction. For reason sees through errors, telling you |
| Tx:22.31 | Reason is not salvation in itself, but it makes | way for peace and brings you to a state of mind in which salvation |
| Tx:22.38 | road is quite apparent, you cannot go ahead. You must go either one | way or the other. For now if you go straight ahead, the way you went |
| Tx:22.38 | either one way or the other. For now if you go straight ahead, the | way you went before you reached the branch, you will go nowhere. The |
| Tx:22.38 | of coming this far was to decide which branch you will take now. The | way you came no longer matters. It can no longer serve. No one who |
| Tx:22.38 | than standing where the road branches and not deciding on which | way to go. |
| Tx:22.39 | It is but the first few steps along the right | way that seem hard, for you have chosen, although you still may think |
| Tx:22.39 | made with the power of Heaven to uphold it cannot be undone. Your | way is decided. There will be nothing you will not be told if you |
| Tx:22.43 | obstacle was finally surmounted which seemed to rise and block their | way before. This veil you lift together opens the way to truth to |
| Tx:22.43 | and block their way before. This veil you lift together opens the | way to truth to more than you. Those who would let illusions be |
| Tx:22.45 | illusions? Surely not by force or anger nor by opposing them in any | way. Merely by letting reason tell you that they contradict reality. |
| Tx:22.45 | defense because of weakness. And how can it be difficult to walk the | way of truth when only weakness interferes? You are the strong ones |
| Tx:22.59 | for peace. He will withhold no blessing from it nor limit it in any | way. He will join to it all the power that God has given Him to make |
| Tx:22.62 | It is unjustified in any form because it has no meaning. The only | way it could be justified is if each one of you were separate from |
| Tx:23.2 | as sinless. He walks in peace who travels sinlessly along the | way love shows him. For love walks with him there, protecting him |
| Tx:23.5 | the light of which he is a part. Your innocence will light the | way to his, and so is yours protected and kept in your awareness. For |
| Tx:23.12 | Illusions cannot triumph over truth, nor can they threaten it in any | way. And the reality which they deny is not a part of them. |
| Tx:23.40 | How can you know whether you chose the stairs to Heaven or the | way to hell? Quite easily. How do you feel? Is peace in your |
| Tx:23.40 | How do you feel? Is peace in your awareness? Are you certain which | way you go? And are you sure the goal of Heaven can be reached? If |
| Tx:24.8 | to a goal that is the same? Would you not help him reach it in every | way you could if his attainment of it were perceived as yours? You |
| Tx:24.20 | You have come far along the | way of truth—too far to falter now. Just one step more and every |
| Tx:24.31 | be your home. He chose not this for you. Ask not He enter this. The | way is barred to love and to salvation. Yet if you would release your |
| Tx:24.43 | Yet let your specialness direct his | way, and you will follow. And both will walk in danger, each intent, |
| Tx:24.45 | are going, and He leads you there in gentleness and blessing all the | way. His love for God replaces all the fear you thought you saw |
| Tx:24.48 | He is within you, yet He walks beside you and before, leading the | way that He must go to find Himself complete. His quietness becomes |
| Tx:24.52 | Yet it is given you to be beyond its laws in all respects, in every | way, and every circumstance, in all temptation to perceive what is |
| Tx:24.67 | in eternity. To no one here is this describable. Nor is there any | way to learn what this condition means. Not till you go past learning |
| Tx:25.13 | that might result in better outcome? For one thing is sure—the | way you see, and long have seen, gives no support to base your future |
| Tx:25.16 | is to see. The body holds it for a while without obscuring it in any | way. Yet what God has created needs no frame, for what He has created |
| Tx:25.17 | into dust. But think you not the picture is destroyed in any | way. What God creates is safe from all corruption, unchanged and |
| Tx:25.32 | he defines it. It is not the aim as such that varies. Yet it is the | way in which the aim is seen that makes the choice of means |
| Tx:25.32 | chosen once again, as what will bring rejoicing is defined another | way and sought for differently. |
| Tx:25.40 | not Heaven is lost to him alone. Nor can it be regained unless the | way is shown to him through you that you may find it, walking by his |
| Tx:25.42 | upon your brother, not without the understanding that he is the | way to Heaven or to hell as you perceive him. But forget not this— |
| Tx:25.42 | this—the role you give to him is given you, and you will walk the | way you pointed out to him because it is your judgment on yourself. |
| Tx:25.50 | share the attributes of His creation when it opposes it in every | way? |
| Tx:25.53 | depends upon the form it takes. Who thinks the world is sane in any | way, is justified in anything it thinks, or is maintained by any form |
| Tx:25.55 | a world perceived as wholly mad to sinners who believe theirs is the | way to sanity. But sin is equally insane within the sight of love, |
| Tx:25.57 | show him he is mad. This One but points to an alternative, another | way of looking at what he has seen before and recognizes as the world |
| Tx:25.66 | still can ask and learn the answer. Justice looks on all in the same | way. It is not just that one should lack for what another has. For |
| Tx:25.77 | of sin, and to the life eternal, joyous and complete in every | way, as God appointed for His holy Son. This is the only justice |
| Tx:25.81 | loss of any kind He cannot see. The world solves problems in another | way. It sees a resolution as a state in which it is decided who shall |
| Tx:25.82 | the murder is not obvious. The Holy Spirit's problem solving is the | way in which the problem ends. It has been solved because it has been |
| Tx:25.84 | first to be unjust. And then must problems rise to block your | way and peace be scattered by the winds of hate. |
| Tx:26.12 | Think not the limits you impose on what you see can limit God in any | way. |
| Tx:26.25 | could need forgiveness. And what is charity within the world gives | way to simple justice past the gate that opens into Heaven. No one |
| Tx:26.30 | only, who point in different ways. And you will go along the | way your chosen teacher leads. There are but two directions you can |
| Tx:26.30 | choice is meaningful. For never will another road be made except the | way to Heaven. You but choose whether to go toward Heaven or away to |
| Tx:26.31 | used to reach a goal as high as learning can achieve? Think not the | way to Heaven's gate is difficult at all. Nothing you undertake with |
| Tx:26.32 | so is all time passed and everything exactly as it was before the | way to nothingness was made. The tiny tick of time in which the first |
| Tx:26.33 | upon you saw but for an instant, long ago before its unreality gave | way to truth. Not one illusion still remains unanswered in your mind. |
| Tx:26.36 | over. Madness speaks no more. There is no other teacher and no other | way. For what has been undone no longer is. And who can stand upon a |
| Tx:26.38 | in the present? You can not go back. And everything that points the | way in the direction of the past but sets you on a mission whose |
| Tx:26.38 | unfairness to yourself has He protected you. You cannot lose your | way because there is no way but His and nowhere can you go except to |
| Tx:26.38 | has He protected you. You cannot lose your way because there is no | way but His and nowhere can you go except to Him. |
| Tx:26.39 | Would God allow His Son to lose his | way along a road long since a memory of time gone by? [This course |
| Tx:26.47 | us review the principles that we have covered and arrange them in a | way that summarizes all that must occur for healing to be possible. |
| Tx:26.51 | false. Your preference gives them no reality. Not one is true in any | way, and all must yield with equal ease to what God gave as answer to |
| Tx:26.88 | are innocent of this and victimized despite your innocence? Whatever | way the game of guilt is played, there must be loss. Someone must |
| Tx:26.90 | sparkle that salvation brought can you perceive to lighten up your | way. And so you see yourself deprived of light, abandoned to the |
| Tx:27.1 | and make a unity of what can never join? Walk you the gentle | way, and you will fear no evil and no shadows in the night. But place |
| Tx:27.8 | enjoy their benefits or not. The end of life must come, whatever | way that life be spent. And so take pleasure in the quickly passing |
| Tx:27.10 | bad nor good. No grounds are offered that it may be judged in any | way at all. It has no life, but neither is it dead. It stands apart |
| Tx:27.12 | The simple | way to let this be achieved is merely this—to let the body have no |
| Tx:27.13 | to love, and damaged bodies are accusers. They stand firmly in the | way of trust and peace, proclaiming that the frail can have no trust |
| Tx:27.23 | and different ends. Correction, to a mind so split, must be a | way to punish sins you think are yours in someone else. And thus does |
| Tx:27.36 | has no limited effects. Yet if God gave an answer, there must be a | way in which your problems are resolved, for what He wills already |
| Tx:27.37 | of mind solution is impossible. Therefore, God must have given you a | way of reaching to another state of mind in which the answer is |
| Tx:27.38 | its point of view. All questions asked within this world are but a | way of looking, not a question asked. A question asked in hate cannot |
| Tx:27.44 | The only | way to heal is to be healed. The miracle extends without your help, |
| Tx:27.51 | have been properly perceived but never violated. Fear you not the | way that you perceive them. You are wrong, but there is One within |
| Tx:27.63 | that is needed is you look upon the problem as it is, and not the | way that you have set it up. How could there be another way to solve |
| Tx:27.63 | and not the way that you have set it up. How could there be another | way to solve a problem which is very simple but has been obscured by |
| Tx:27.68 | suffering to you, your guilt was not among them. Nor did you in any | way request them for yourself. This is how all illusions come about. |
| Tx:28.5 | does not seek to use it as a means to keep the past, but rather as a | way to let it go. Memory holds the message it receives and does what |
| Tx:28.6 | the past is held in memory as you make use of it, and so it is a | way to hold the past against the now. |
| Tx:28.13 | has gone. There is no past to keep its fearful image in the | way of glad awakening to present peace. The trumpets of eternity |
| Tx:28.15 | when memory of God has come to take the place of loss? What better | way to close the little gap between illusions and reality than to |
| Tx:28.24 | final step with which salvation, which proceeds to go the other | way, begins. This final step is an effect of what has gone before, |
| Tx:28.28 | present. Here is where we must begin. And having started, will the | way be made serene and simple in the rising up to waking and the |
| Tx:28.38 | There is a | way of finding certainty right here and now. Refuse to be a part of |
| Tx:28.55 | been set. And if that path is changed, it walks as easily another | way. It takes no sides and judges not the road it travels. It |
| Tx:29.1 | where God is absent. There is nothing to be feared. There is no | way in which a gap could be conceived of in the wholeness that is |
| Tx:29.3 | are past, but this one still remains to block your path and make the | way to light seem dark and fearful, perilous and bleak. You had |
| Tx:29.10 | does an easy path, so clearly marked it is impossible to lose the | way, seem thorny, rough, and far too difficult for you to follow? Is |
| Tx:29.10 | you see it as the road to hell instead of looking on it as a simple | way, without a sacrifice or any loss, to find yourself in Heaven and |
| Tx:29.10 | understand there is no loss, you will have some regrets about the | way that you have chosen. And you will not see the many gains your |
| Tx:29.22 | Before this light the body disappears, as heavy shadows must give | way to light. The darkness cannot choose that it remain. The coming |
| Tx:29.23 | There, in its place, God's Witness has set forth the gentle | way of kindness to God's Son. Whom you forgive is given power to |
| Tx:29.23 | your illusions. By your gift of freedom is it given unto you. Make | way for love, which you did not create, but which you can extend. On |
| Tx:29.26 | not then be willing to awake, for which the miracle prepares the | way. |
| Tx:29.36 | and will continue in death's services. Each form it takes in some | way calls for death. And those who serve the lord of death have come |
| Tx:29.53 | deceive you. Idols are but substitutes for your reality. In some | way, you believe they will complete your little self [and let you |
| Tx:29.55 | and been kept apart? What hand could be held up to block God's | way? Whose voice could make demand He enter not? The |
| Tx:29.57 | change, the peace of God, forever given to all living things, give | way to chaos, and the Son of God, as perfect, sinless and as loving |
| Tx:29.70 | he is remembering what he forgot when judgment seemed to be the | way to save him from its penalty. |
| Tx:30.2 | think about the kind of day you want and tell yourself there is a | way in which this very day can happen just like that. Then try again |
| Tx:30.14 | already gotten angry, and your fear of being answered in a different | way from what your version of the question asks will gain momentum |
| Tx:30.17 | This much is obvious and paves the | way for the next easy step. |
| Tx:30.18 | 5. Having decided that you do not like the | way you feel, what could be easier than to continue with, |
| Tx:30.20 | that you want and that you need, because you do not like the | way you feel. This tiny opening will be enough to let you go ahead |
| Tx:30.23 | I want another | way to look at this. |
| Tx:30.26 | Perhaps there is another | way to look at this. What can I lose by asking? |
| Tx:30.64 | join Him. Now that you have come, would He delay in showing you the | way that He must walk with you? His blessing lies on you as surely as |
| Tx:30.65 | right, and what you pay for is not happiness. Be speeded on your | way by honesty, and let not your experiences here deceive in |
| Tx:30.70 | This is not pardon. For it would assume that, by responding in a | way which is not justified, your pardon will become the answer to |
| Tx:30.78 | from guilt in all its forms and all its consequence. There is no | way to think of him but this if you would know the truth about |
| Tx:31.15 | but the illusion it is free, for it will have one outcome either | way. Thus is it really not a choice at all. The leader and the |
| Tx:31.20 | his progress do you count your own. And we go separately along the | way unless you keep him safely by your side. |
| Tx:31.23 | decide to walk with him, so neither leads nor follows. Thus it is a | way you go together, not alone. And in this choice is learning's |
| Tx:31.25 | cannot be given while you walk alone, and so you cannot see which | way you go. And thus there is confusion and a sense of endless |
| Tx:31.25 | road. A blindfold can indeed obscure your sight but cannot make the | way itself grow dark. And He Who travels with you has the light. |
| Tx:31.35 | are to one another. Men have died on seeing this because they saw no | way except the pathways offered by the world. And learning they led |
| Tx:31.36 | road, another person, or another place when you have learned the | way the lesson starts but do not yet perceive what it is for? Its |
| Tx:31.37 | Is it not needful that he should begin with this, to seek another | way instead? For while he sees a choice where there is none, what |
| Tx:31.39 | following a road away from it. This makes no sense and cannot be the | way. To you who seem to find this course to be too difficult to |
| Tx:31.39 | its direction, not away from it. And every road that leads the other | way will not advance the purpose to be found. If this be difficult to |
| Tx:31.50 | world's laws and never seek to go beyond its roads nor realize the | way you see yourself. Now must the Holy Spirit find a way to help you |
| Tx:31.50 | realize the way you see yourself. Now must the Holy Spirit find a | way to help you see this concept of the self must be undone if any |
| Tx:31.54 | concept of the self from what is wholly passive and at least makes | way for active choice and some acknowledgment that interaction must |
| Tx:31.65 | Only in arrogance could you conceive that you must make the | way to Heaven plain. The means are given you by which to see the |
| Tx:31.73 | are in your mind to use, and you can see yourself another | way. Would you not rather look upon yourself as needed for salvation |
| Tx:31.92 | Son and close the door upon his dreams of weakness, opening the | way to his salvation and release. Choose once again what you would |
| W1:3.1 | Apply this idea in the same | way as the previous ones, without making distinctions of any kind. |
| W1:8.3 | that it is filled with real ideas, is the first step to opening the | way to vision. |
| W1:10.3 | “thoughts” means that you are not thinking. This is merely another | way of repeating our earlier statement that your mind is really a |
| W1:13.4 | or so at most each time, are to be practiced in a somewhat different | way from the preceding ones. With eyes closed, repeat today's idea to |
| W1:15.3 | will not reveal knowledge to you. But they will prepare the | way to it. |
| W1:17.1 | first, despite the temptation to believe that it is really the other | way around. This is not the way the world thinks, but you must learn |
| W1:17.1 | to believe that it is really the other way around. This is not the | way the world thinks, but you must learn that it is the way you |
| W1:17.1 | is not the way the world thinks, but you must learn that it is the | way you think. If it were not so, perception would have no cause and |
| W1:22.1 | Today's idea accurately describes the | way anyone who holds attack thoughts in his mind must see the world. |
| W1:23.1 | The idea for today contains the only | way out of fear that will ever succeed. Nothing else will work; |
| W1:23.1 | Nothing else will work; everything else is meaningless. But this | way cannot fail. Every thought you have makes up some segment of the |
| W1:24.1 | you happy. Therefore you have no guide to appropriate action and no | way of judging the result. What you do is determined by your |
| W1:25.3 | Another | way of describing the goals you now perceive as valuable is to say |
| W1:25.5 | that they are meaningless, rather than “good” or “bad,” is the only | way to accomplish this. The idea for today is a step in this |
| W1:28.1 | you are willing at least to make them now, you have started on the | way to keeping them. And we are still at the beginning. |
| W1:30.2 | from us. That is the fundamental difference between vision and the | way you see. |
| W1:33.4 | There is another | way of looking at this. |
| W1:34.1 | today begins to describe the conditions that prevail in the other | way of seeing. Peace of mind is clearly an internal matter. It must |
| W1:34.5 | and made whenever you feel your peace of mind is threatened in any | way. The purpose is to protect yourself from temptation throughout |
| W1:35.1 | Today's idea does not describe the | way you see yourself now. It does, however, describe what vision will |
| W1:35.8 | You should not think of these terms in an abstract | way. They will occur to you as various situations, personalities and |
| W1:37.2 | There is no other | way in which the idea of sacrifice can be removed from the world's |
| W1:37.2 | of sacrifice can be removed from the world's thinking. Any other | way of seeing will inevitably demand payment of someone or something. |
| W1:39.8 | your salvation. Apply the idea for today to each one of them in this | way: |
| W1:41.7 | You might even say it is the only natural thing in the world. The | way will open if you believe that it is possible. This exercise can |
| W1:43.8 | relevant thoughts occur to you add to the idea in your own personal | way. Thoughts such as: |
| W1:43.15 | which may occur, particularly to those which distress you in any | way. For this kind of application, use this form: |
| W1:45.1 | just as nothing that you think you see is related to vision in any | way. There is no relationship between what is real and what you think |
| W1:47.1 | aware of all the facets of any problem and to resolve it in such a | way that only good can come of it? What is there in you that gives |
| W1:49.1 | through the day without interrupting your regular activities in any | way. The part of your mind in which truth abides is in constant |
| W1:52.2 | reality as an illusion. Nothing in God's creation is affected in any | way by this confusion of mine. I am always upset by nothing. |
| W1:53.6 | thoughts to cast their beneficent light on what I see. Yet God's | way is sure. The images I have made cannot prevail against Him |
| W1:57.4 | [33] There is another | way of looking at the world. Since the purpose of the world is not |
| W1:57.4 | of the world is not the one I ascribed to it, there must be another | way of looking at it. I see everything upside down, and my thoughts |
| W1:64.1 | Today's idea is merely another | way of saying, “Let me not wander into temptation.” The purpose of |
| W1:64.5 | There is no other | way. Therefore every time you choose whether or not to fulfill your |
| W1:65.1 | all the other goals you have invented for yourself. This is the only | way in which you can take your rightful place among the saviors of |
| W1:65.1 | your rightful place among the saviors of the world. This is the only | way in which you can say and mean, “My only function is the one God |
| W1:65.1 | mean, “My only function is the one God gave me.” This is the only | way in which you can find peace of mind. |
| W1:68.9 | Try to believe, however briefly, that nothing can harm you in any | way. At the end of the practice period tell yourself: |
| W1:69.5 | do not attempt to go through them and past them, which is the only | way in which you would be really convinced of their lack of |
| W1:70.2 | yourself can hurt you or disturb your peace or upset you in any | way. |
| W1:70.4 | have put the remedy for sickness where it cannot help. That is the | way your mind has worked, but hardly His. He wants you to be healed, |
| W1:70.8 | salvation comes from nothing outside of you. You might put it this | way: |
| W1:71.15 | for today some six or seven times an hour. There could be no better | way to spend a half-minute or less than to remember the Source of |
| W1:73.14 | period under Their guidance. Join with Them as They lead the | way. |
| W1:74.11 | After you have cleared your mind in this | way, close your eyes and try to experience the peace to which your |
| W1:78.2 | the grievances to look upon the miracle instead. We will reverse the | way you see by not allowing sight to stop before it sees. We will not |
| W1:78.8 | of God in his reality and truth that we may look on him a different | way and see our savior shining in the light of true forgiveness given |
| W1:80.2 | and conviction. You have recognized your only problem, opening the | way for the Holy Spirit to give you God's answer. You have laid |
| W1:R2.4 | Regard these practice periods as dedications to the | way, the truth, and the life. Refuse to be side-tracked into detours, |
| W1:82.7 | This may threaten my ego but cannot change my function in any | way. |
| W1:86.5 | I would no longer defeat my own best interests in this insane | way. I would accept God's plan for salvation and be happy. |
| W1:95.11 | It is this process that must be laid aside, for it is but another | way in which you would defend illusions against the truth. Let all |
| W1:96.8 | God. The Holy Spirit holds salvation in your mind and offers it the | way to peace. Salvation is a thought you share with God, because His |
| W1:97.7 | and leads you out of darkness, nor will you be able to forget the | way again. |
| W1:98.2 | we need with which to reach the goal. Not one mistake stands in our | way, for we have been absolved from errors. All our sins are washed |
| W1:98.11 | enable you to understand your special function. He will open up the | way to happiness, and peace and trust will be His gifts, His answer |
| W1:99.12 | and start your longer practice periods with this instruction in the | way of truth: |
| W1:101.4 | savage punishment? Who would not flee salvation and attempt in every | way he can to drown the Voice Which offers it to him? Why would he |
| W1:104.8 | So do we clear the | way for Him today by simply recognizing that His Will is done already |
| W1:105.4 | Accept God's peace and joy, and you will learn a different | way of looking at a gift. God's gifts will never lessen when they are |
| W1:106.2 | Voice, Which silences the thunder of the meaningless and shows the | way to peace to those who cannot see. Be still today and listen to |
| W1:106.8 | Today we practice giving, not the | way you understand it now, but as it is. Each hour's exercises should |
| W1:106.10 | you came and which will free the world from thinking giving is a | way to lose. And so the world becomes ready to understand and to |
| W1:109.5 | by without its touch upon you, for your rest can never change in any | way at all. |
| W1:109.8 | comes closer to all worn and tired minds, too weary now to go their | way alone. And they will hear the bird begin to sing and see the |
| W1:R3.9 | inclined to practice only at appointed times and then go on your | way to other things without applying what you learned to them. As a |
| W1:119.2 | errors in my mind. I am mistaken when I think I can be hurt in any | way. I am God's Son whose Self rests safely in the Mind of God. |
| W1:121.1 | key to meaning in a world which seems to make no sense. Here is the | way to safety in apparent dangers which appear to threaten you at |
| W1:121.8 | will be not of you, but of the Teacher Who was given you to show the | way to you. Today we practice learning to forgive. If you are |
| W1:122.10 | the turning point at which the road becomes far easier. And now the | way is short that yet we travel. We are close indeed to the appointed |
| W1:124.1 | and which heals. At one with God and with the universe, we go our | way rejoicing, with the thought that God Himself goes everywhere with |
| W1:124.2 | give place to everlasting life. Our shining footprints point the | way to truth, for God is our Companion as we walk the world a little |
| W1:124.2 | a little while. And those who come to follow us will recognize the | way because the light we carry stays behind, yet still remains with |
| W1:124.5 | We see it in appearances of pain, and pain gives | way to peace. We see it in the frantic, in the sad and the |
| W1:126.2 | have no effect on them, and their appeals for help are not in any | way related to your own. You further think that they can sin without |
| W1:127.1 | you think there is a kind of love for this, a kind for that; a | way of loving one, another way of loving still another. Love is one. |
| W1:127.1 | kind of love for this, a kind for that; a way of loving one, another | way of loving still another. Love is one. It has no separate parts |
| W1:128.1 | nothing that you need to offer you, nothing that you can use in any | way, nor anything at all that serves to give you joy. Believe this |
| W1:131.2 | Goals which are meaningless are not attained. There is no | way to reach them, for the means by which you strive for them are |
| W1:131.8 | earth the other's sorry outcome that is Heaven's opposite in every | way. |
| W1:131.16 | swings open with your one intent to go beyond it. Angels light the | way, so that all darkness vanishes and you are standing in a light so |
| W1:132.11 | What is the lesson for today except another | way of saying that to know your Self is the salvation of the world? |
| W1:132.12 | you see is false, for God's creation is unlike the world in every | way. And as it was His thought by which you were created, so it is |
| W1:134.8 | truth. By its ability to overlook what is not there, it opens up the | way to truth, which had been blocked by dreams of guilt. |
| W1:134.9 | Now are you free to follow in the | way your true forgiveness opens up to you. For if one brother has |
| W1:134.9 | gift of you, the door is open to yourself. There is a very simple | way to find the door to true forgiveness and perceive it open wide in |
| W1:134.12 | lifts his foot to stride ahead, a star is left behind to point the | way to those who follow him. |
| W1:134.14 | and in peace. Our practicing becomes the footsteps lightening up the | way for all our brothers, who will follow us to the reality we share |
| W1:135.17 | plays no part at all, for present confidence directs the | way. |
| W1:136.12 | to think you die or suffer sickness or distort the truth in any | way. What is created is apart from all of this. Defenses are plans to |
| W1:138.1 | Heaven exists, there must be hell as well, for contradiction is the | way we make what we perceive and what we think is real. Creation |
| W1:139.9 | reality, but merely to accept the truth about yourself and go your | way rejoicing in the endless Love of God. It is but this that we are |
| W1:R4.1 | we review the recent lessons and their central thoughts in such a | way as will facilitate the readiness which we would now achieve. |
| W1:151.6 | yourself. Yet you must learn to doubt their evidence will clear the | way to recognize yourself and let the Voice for God alone be Judge of |
| W1:151.11 | circumstance, and every happening which seems to touch on you in any | way from His one frame of reference, wholly unified and sure. And you |
| W1:155.1 | There is a | way of living in the world that is not here, although it seems to be. |
| W1:155.1 | you do recognize their own. Yet those who have not yet perceived the | way will recognize you also and believe that you are like them as you |
| W1:155.2 | own reality is even here, then they step back and let it lead the | way. What other choice is really theirs to make? To let illusion walk |
| W1:155.5 | sacrifice and deprivation both are quickly left behind. This is the | way appointed for you now. You walk this path as others walk, nor do |
| W1:155.5 | serve them while you serve yourself and set their footsteps on the | way which God has opened up to you, and them through you. |
| W1:155.6 | through illusion, for the road leads past illusion now, while on the | way you call to them that they may follow you. |
| W1:155.7 | you to lead your brothers from the ways of death and set them on the | way to happiness. Their suffering is but illusion. Yet they need a |
| W1:155.9 | with which they can identify, something they understand to lead the | way. |
| W1:155.10 | no distance between truth and you. And all illusions walking in the | way you traveled will be gone from you as well, with nothing left to |
| W1:155.10 | holy as Himself. Step back in faith, and let truth lead the | way. You know not where you go, but One Who knows goes with you. Let |
| W1:155.11 | the truth. And we step forth toward this as we progress along the | way that truth points out to us. This is our final journey, which we |
| W1:155.11 | our final journey, which we make for everyone. We must not lose our | way. For as truth goes before us, so it goes before our brothers who |
| W1:155.12 | We walk to God. Pause and reflect on this. Could any | way be holier or more deserving of your effort, of your love, and of |
| W1:155.12 | of your effort, of your love, and of your full intent? What | way could give you more than everything or offer less and still |
| W1:155.12 | now is one with Him and leads us to where He has always been. What | way but this could be a path that you would choose instead? |
| W1:155.13 | Your feet are safely set upon the | way that leads the world to God. Look not to ways which seem to lead |
| W1:155.15 | I will step back and let Him lead the | way, for I would walk along the road to Him. |
| W1:156.6 | This is the | way salvation works. As you step back, the Light in you steps forward |
| W1:157.3 | return to paths of learning. Yet you have come far enough along the | way to alter time sufficiently to rise above its laws and walk into |
| W1:158.2 | found early in the text. Experience cannot be shared directly in the | way that vision can. The revelation that the Father and the Son are |
| W1:158.11 | has still one gift to give in which true knowledge is reflected in a | way so accurate its image shares its unseen holiness; its likeness |
| W1:159.10 | appointed it be given you? Judge not God's Son, but follow in the | way He has established. Christ has dreamed the dream of a forgiven |
| W1:160.6 | no home wherever he may look, for he has made return impossible. His | way is lost except a miracle will search him out and show him that he |
| W1:163.7 | Their stronger will could triumph over His, and so eternal life gave | way to death. And with the Father died the Son as well. |
| W1:165.2 | you, cares for you, makes soft your resting place and smooth your | way, lighting your mind with happiness and love. Eternity and |

| W1:166.7 | to show this is not you. You heed them not. You go on your appointed | way, with eyes cast down lest you might catch a glimpse of truth and |
| W1:166.9 | outwitted by your plan to keep His Son in deep oblivion and go the | way you chose without your Self. |
| W1:166.13 | who teach them now. For you have learned of Christ there is another | way for them to walk. Teach them by showing them the happiness that |
| W1:170.5 | means by which your fancied self-defense proceeds on its imagined | way, you will perceive the premises on which the idea stands. First, |
| W1:170.13 | at last. The Call of God is heard and answered. Now has fear made | way for love, as God Himself replaces cruelty. |
| W1:R5.2 | Lead our practicing as does a father lead a little child along a | way he does not understand. Yet does he follow, sure that he is safe |
| W1:R5.2 | does he follow, sure that he is safe because his father leads the | way for him. |
| W1:R5.3 | to You. And if we stumble, You will raise us up. If we forget the | way, we count upon Your sure remembering. We wander off, but You will |
| W1:R5.8 | teaches, seeing what they see, but still retaining in his mind the | way that led him out and now will lead you out with him. God's Son is |
| W1:R5.9 | and is forgot. I am renewed each time a brother learns there is a | way from misery and pain. I am reborn each time a brother's mind |
| W1:R5.11 | To Him we go together. Take your brother's hand, for this is not a | way we walk alone. In him I walk with you and you with me. Our Father |
| W1:173.2 | [155] I will step back and let Him lead the | way. God is but Love, and therefore so am I. |
| W1:I2.1 | it sure that you will give your total willingness to following the | way the course sets forth. |
| W1:181.3 | in practicing today, we first let all such little focuses give | way to our great need to let our sinlessness become apparent. We |
| W1:181.4 | that, even if you should succeed, you will inevitably lose your | way again. How could this matter? For the past is gone, the future |
| W1:181.5 | within. We recognize that we have lost this goal if anger blocks our | way in any form. And if a brother's sins occur to us, our narrowed |
| W1:182.12 | it in exchange for all the toys of battle you have made. And now the | way is open, and the journey has an end in sight at last. Be still a |
| W1:184.4 | This is the | way reality is made by partial vision, purposefully set against the |
| W1:185.6 | Whatever form the lesson takes is planned for him in such a | way that he cannot mistake it if his asking is sincere. And if he |
| W1:186.3 | in you who are His Son. It does not ask that you be different in any | way from what you are. What could humility request but this? And what |
| W1:186.5 | There is one | way and only one to be released from the imprisonment your plan to |
| W1:188.6 | world and let your thoughts fly to the peace within. They know the | way. For honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things |
| W1:189.6 | Its sight which is the gift Its Love bestows on us. We learn the | way today. It is as sure as Love Itself, to Which it carries us. For |
| W1:189.8 | Is it not He Who knows the | way to you? You need not know the way to Him. Your part is simply to |
| W1:189.8 | Is it not He Who knows the way to you? You need not know the | way to Him. Your part is simply to allow all obstacles that you have |
| W1:189.8 | nor point the road to God by which He should appear to you. The | way to reach Him is merely to let Him be. For in that way is your |
| W1:189.8 | to you. The way to reach Him is merely to let Him be. For in that | way is your reality acclaimed as well. |
| W1:189.9 | And so today we do not choose the | way in which we go to Him. But we do choose to let Him come. And with |
| W1:189.9 | be true, and can be surely reached. God knows His Son and knows the | way to him. He does not need His Son to show Him how to find His way. |
| W1:189.9 | the way to him. He does not need His Son to show Him how to find His | way. Through every opened door His love shines outward from its home |
| W1:189.10 | Father, we do not know the | way to You. But we have called, and You have answered us. We will not |
| W1:189.10 | cherish no beliefs of what we are or who created us. Yours is the | way that we would find and follow. And we ask but that Your Will, |
| W1:190.5 | pain. Nothing external to your mind can hurt or injure you in any | way. There is no cause beyond yourself that can reach down and bring |
| W1:190.8 | a cruel and a bitter place, where sorrow rules and little joys give | way before the onslaught of the savage pain that waits to end all joy |
| W1:191.5 | gift he gives to everyone in gratitude to Him Who pointed out the | way to happiness that changed his whole perception of the world. |
| W1:192.8 | the jailer lives, along with him. And it is on his freedom that the | way to liberty depends for both of them. |
| W1:192.9 | prisoner. Release instead of bind, for thus are you made free. The | way is simple. Every time you feel a stab of anger, realize you hold |
| W1:192.10 | of God deserves your mercy. It is he who asks that you accept the | way to freedom now. Deny him not. His Father's Love for him belongs |
| W1:193.13 | correction nor one thorn or nail to hurt His sacred Son in any | way. He would ensure his holy rest remain untroubled and serene, |
| W1:193.15 | kept apart from healing. Let us give them all to Him Who knows the | way to look upon them so that they will disappear. Truth is His |
| W1:193.16 | of the one before. The chains of time are easily unloosened in this | way. |
| W1:193.17 | of time. This is the lesson God would have you learn: there is a | way to look on everything that lets it be to you another step to Him |
| W1:194.6 | which rules your mind, a habit in your problem-solving repertoire, a | way of quick reaction to temptation, you extend your learning to the |
| W1:194.7 | love? For he who has escaped all fear of future pain has found his | way to present peace and certainty of care the world can never |
| W1:195.2 | sane refuse to take the steps which He directs and follow in the | way He sets before them to escape a prison that they thought |
| W1:195.5 | or feel apparent pain, who suffer cold or hunger, or who walk the | way of hatred and the path of death. All these go with you. Let us |
| W1:195.7 | them. For if we can direct them to the peace that we would find, the | way is opening at last to us. An ancient door is swinging free again; |
| W1:195.8 | Walk then in gratitude, the | way of love. For hatred is forgotten when we lay comparisons aside. |
| W1:195.10 | Our gratitude will pave the | way to Him and shorten our learning time by more than you could ever |
| W1:195.10 | to Him is one with His to you. For love can walk no road except the | way of gratitude, and thus we go who walk the way to God. |
| W1:195.10 | no road except the way of gratitude, and thus we go who walk the | way to God. |
| W1:196.4 | freedom. Let us take this step today that we may quickly go the | way salvation shows us, taking every step in its appointed sequence |
| W1:198.4 | suffering, and finally away from death. How could there be another | way, when this one is the plan of God Himself? And why would you |
| W1:200.7 | the world can but deceive? Yet can he learn to look on it another | way and find the peace of God. |
| W1:200.8 | and leading from this fresh perception to the gate of Heaven and the | way beyond. Peace is the answer to conflicting goals, to senseless |
| W1:200.8 | journeys, frantic, vain pursuits, and meaningless endeavors. Now the | way is easy, sloping gently toward the bridge where freedom lies |
| W1:200.9 | Let us not lose our | way again today. We go to Heaven, and the path is straight. Only if |
| W1:200.11 | and want. Peace be to us today. For we have found a simple, happy | way to leave the world of ambiguity and to replace our shifting goals |
| W1:R6.11 | Him to teach us how to go, and trusting Him completely for the | way each practice period can best become a loving gift of freedom to |
| W1:213.1 | of thoughts I made that hurt me. What I learn of Him becomes the | way I am set free. And so I choose to learn His lessons and forget my |
| W1:215.1 | [195] Love is the | way I walk in gratitude. The Holy Spirit is my only Guide. He walks |
| W1:215.1 | walks with me in love. And I give thanks to Him for showing me the | way to go. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God created |
| W1:220.1 | is no peace except the peace of God. Let me not wander from the | way of peace, for I am lost on other roads than this. But let me |
| W2:I.7 | unafraid and certain of Your coming. We have sought to find our | way by following the Guide You sent to us. We did not know the way, |
| W2:I.7 | our way by following the Guide You sent to us. We did not know the | way, but You did not forget us. And we know that You will not forget |
| W2:I.8 | search for truth and God, Who is its one Creator. We have found the | way He chose for us and made the choice to follow it as He would have |
| W2:I.10 | need but be still and let all things be healed. We will accept the | way God's plan will end, as we received the way it started. Now it is |
| W2:I.10 | We will accept the way God's plan will end, as we received the | way it started. Now it is complete. This year has brought us to |
| W2:225.1 | —beloved, with fear behind and only peace ahead. How still the | way Your loving Son is led along to You! |
| W2:225.2 | Brother, we find that stillness now. The | way is open. Now we follow it in peace together. You have reached |
| W2:WS.1 | Salvation is a promise made by God that you would find your | way to Him at last. It cannot but be kept. It guarantees that time |
| W2:242.1 | for I would not delay my coming home, and it is He Who knows the | way to Him. |
| W2:242.2 | You will give us everything we want and that will help us find the | way to You. |
| W2:246.1 | Let me not think that I can find the | way to God if I have hatred in my heart. Let me not try to hurt God's |
| W2:246.2 | I will accept the | way You choose for me to come to You, my Father. For in that will I |
| W2:256.1 | The | way to God is through forgiveness here. There is no other way. If sin |
| W2:256.1 | The way to God is through forgiveness here. There is no other | way. If sin had not been cherished by the mind, what need would there |
| W2:256.1 | cherished by the mind, what need would there have been to find a | way to where you are? Who would still be uncertain? Who could be |
| W2:256.2 | And so, our Father, would we come to You in Your appointed | way. We have no goal except to hear Your Voice and find the way Your |
| W2:256.2 | way. We have no goal except to hear Your Voice and find the | way Your sacred Word has pointed out to us. |
| W2:258.2 | Our goal is but to follow in the | way that leads to You. We have no goal but this. What could we want |
| W2:266.2 | Love of God. How many saviors God has given us! How can we lose the | way to Him, when He has filled the world with those who point to Him |
| W2:269.1 | my sight today. It is the means which You have chosen to become the | way to show me my mistakes and look beyond them. It is given me to |
| W2:271.2 | Father, Christ's vision is the | way to You. What He beholds invites Your memory to be restored to me. |
| W2:273.1 | than satisfied to learn how such a day can be achieved. If we give | way to a disturbance, let us learn how to dismiss it and return to |
| W2:278.1 | I perceive are real and cannot be escaped. If I am bound in any | way, I do not know my Father or my Self. And I am lost to all |
| W2:278.2 | a dream of fear into my mind. Today I would not dream. I choose the | way to You instead of madness and instead of fear. For truth is safe |
| W2:280.2 | Today let me give honor to Your Son, for thus alone I find the | way to You. Father, I lay no limits on the Son You love and You |
| W2:281.1 | Father, Your Son is perfect. When he thinks that he is hurt in any | way, it is because he has forgotten who he is, and that he is as You |
| W2:286.2 | The stillness of today will give us hope that we have found the | way and traveled far along it to a wholly certain goal. Today we will |
| W2:287.2 | You are my goal, my Father. What but You could I desire to have? What | way but that which leads to You could I desire to walk? And what |
| W2:287.2 | You are my only goal. Your Son would be as You created him. What | way but this could I expect to recognize my Self and be at one with |
| W2:288.1 | This is the thought that leads the | way to You and brings me to my goal. I cannot come to You without my |
| W2:288.1 | created one with me. My brother's is the hand that leads me on the | way to You. His sins are in the past along with mine. And I am saved |
| W2:288.1 | is gone. Let me not cherish it within my heart or I will lose the | way to walk to You. My brother is my savior. Let me not attack the |
| W2:291.2 | accept what comes from You instead of from myself. I do not know the | way to You. But You are wholly certain. Father, lead Your Son along |
| W2:297.1 | formula. And I, who would be saved, would make it mine to be the | way I live within a world that needs salvation and that will be saved |
| W2:298.2 | Father, I come to You today, because I would not follow any | way but Yours. You are beside me. Certain is Your way. And I am |
| W2:298.2 | not follow any way but Yours. You are beside me. Certain is Your | way. And I am grateful for Your holy gifts of certain sanctuary and |
| W2:300.2 | seek Your holy world today. For we, Your loving Sons, have lost our | way a while. But we have listened to Your Voice and learned exactly |
| W2:WISC.2 | creation must be limitless. Forgiveness lights the Second Coming's | way because it shines on everyone as one. And thus is oneness |
| W2:WISC.3 | Second Coming ends the lessons which the Holy Spirit teaches, making | way for the Last Judgment, in which learning ends in one last summary |
| W2:302.2 | Love awaits us as we go to Him and walks beside us, showing us the | way. He fails in nothing. He the end we seek, and He the means by |
| W2:308.1 | I have conceived of time in such a | way that I defeat my aim. If I elect to reach past time to |
| W2:315.1 | this gift and takes it as its own. And everyone who finds the | way to God becomes my savior, pointing out the way to me and giving |
| W2:315.1 | who finds the way to God becomes my savior, pointing out the | way to me and giving me his certainty that what he learned is surely |
| W2:317.1 | of time and human destiny. But when I willingly and gladly go the | way my Father's plan appointed me to go, then will I recognize |
| W2:317.2 | Father, Your | way is what I choose today. Where it would lead me, do I choose to |
| W2:317.2 | do I choose to go; what it would have me do, I choose to do. Your | way is certain and the end secure. The memory of You awaits me there, |
| W2:321.1 | guide myself no more. For I have neither made nor understood the | way to find my freedom. But I trust in You. You Who endowed me with |
| W2:321.1 | Your holy Son will not be lost to me. Your Voice directs me. And the | way to You is opening and clear to me at last. Father, my freedom is |
| W2:321.2 | with us. How glad are we to find our freedom through the certain | way our Father has established. And how sure is all the world's |
| W2:324.1 | the One Who gave the plan for my salvation to me. You have set the | way I am to go, the role to take, and every step in my appointed |
| W2:324.1 | role to take, and every step in my appointed path. I cannot lose the | way. I can but choose to wander off a while and then return. Your |
| W2:324.1 | me back and guide my feet aright. My brothers all can follow in the | way I lead them. Yet I merely follow in the way to You as You direct |
| W2:324.1 | all can follow in the way I lead them. Yet I merely follow in the | way to You as You direct me and would have me go. |
| W2:324.2 | So let us follow One Who knows the | way. We need not tarry, and we cannot stray except an instant from |
| W2:325.1 | journeys on and help his brothers walk ahead with him and find the | way to Heaven and to God. |
| W2:328.1 | and that our independence from the rest of God's creation is the | way in which salvation is obtained. Yet all we find is sickness, |
| W2:329.2 | us. Through it we recognize that we are one. Through it we find our | way at last to God. |
| W2:331.1 | Could he make a plan for his damnation and be left without a certain | way to his release? You love me, Father. You could never leave me |
| W2:333.2 | You chose to shine away all conflict and all doubt and light the | way for our return to You. No light but this can end our evil dreams. |
| W2:336.1 | is restored after perception first is changed and then gives | way entirely to what remains forever past its highest reach. For |
| W2:WIM.1 | of forgiveness. Thus it stays within time's limits. Yet it paves the | way for the return of timelessness and love's awakening, for fear |
| W2:342.2 | take you home with me. And as we go, the world goes with us on the | way to God. |
| W2:345.1 | this gift alone today, which, born of true forgiveness, lights the | way that I must travel to remember You. |
| W2:351.1 | sinlessness, my everlasting Comforter and Friend beside me, and my | way secure and clear. Choose, then, for me, my Father, through Your |
| W2:352.1 | love, reflected in forgiveness here, reminds me You have given me a | way to find Your peace again. I am redeemed when I elect to follow in |
| W2:352.1 | find Your peace again. I am redeemed when I elect to follow in this | way. You have not left me comfortless. I have within me both the |
| W2:353.1 | Father, I give all that is mine today to Christ to use in any | way that best will serve the purpose that I share with Him. Nothing |
| W2:357.1 | upon Your Son today, I hear Your Voice instructing me to find the | way to You as You appointed that the way shall be: “Behold his |
| W2:357.1 | instructing me to find the way to You as You appointed that the | way shall be: “Behold his sinlessness, and be you healed.” |

| W2:FL.2 | His is the only | way to find the peace that God has given us. It is His way that |
| W2:FL.2 | is the only way to find the peace that God has given us. It is His | way that everyone must travel in the end, because it is this ending |
| W2:FL.2 | it is already here, already serving us as gracious guidance in the | way to go. Let us together follow in this way that truth points out |
| W2:FL.2 | gracious guidance in the way to go. Let us together follow in this | way that truth points out to us. And let us be the leaders of our |

| W2:FL.4 | is that remembrance which contains the memory of God and points the | way to Him and to the Heaven of His peace. And shall we not forgive |
| W2:FL.4 | shall we not forgive our brother who can offer this to us? He is the | way, the truth, and life that show the way to us. In him resides |
| W2:FL.4 | offer this to us? He is the way, the truth, and life that show the | way to us. In him resides salvation, offered us through our |
| W2:E.1 | that you need for anything that seems to trouble you. He knows the | way to solve all problems and resolve all doubts. His certainty is |
| W2:E.5 | Him for guidance and for peace and right direction. Joy attends our | way. For we go homeward to an open door which God has held unclosed |
| W2:E.6 | our ways to Him and say “Amen.” In peace we will continue in His | way and trust all things to Him. In confidence we wait His answers, |
| M:1.2 | Everyone will answer in the end, but the end can be a long, long | way off. It is because of this that the plan of the teachers was |
| M:3.3 | levels of teaching seems to be something different. Perhaps the best | way to demonstrate that these levels cannot exist is simply to say |
| M:3.4 | only, we can speak of levels of teaching. Using the term in this | way, the second level of teaching is a more sustained relationship in |
| M:4.8 | is now at the point in his progress at which he sees in it his whole | way out. “Give up what you do not want and keep what you do.” How |
| M:4.10 | peace, for here is Heaven's state fully reflected. From here the | way to Heaven is open and easy. In fact, it is here. Who would “go” |
| M:4.15 | this has meaning to the sane? Who chooses hell when he perceives a | way to Heaven? And who would choose the weakness that must come from |
| M:4.16 | sure no harm can come to them. They hold His gifts and follow in His | way because God's Voice directs them in all things. Joy is their song |
| M:4.18 | obviousness of its reversal of the world's thinking. In the clearest | way possible and at the simplest of levels, the word means the exact |
| M:4.24 | Forgiveness is the final goal of the curriculum. It paves the | way for what goes far beyond all learning. The curriculum makes no |
| M:6.1 | it for the patient. Yet what if the patient uses sickness as a | way of life, believing healing is the way to death? When this is so, |
| M:6.1 | the patient uses sickness as a way of life, believing healing is the | way to death? When this is so, a sudden healing might precipitate |
| M:10.3 | of his judgments on everyone and everything involved in them in any | way. And one would have to be certain there is no distortion in his |
| M:10.4 | effects of His judgment on everyone and everything involved in any | way. And He is wholly fair to everyone, for there is no distortion in |
| M:11.3 | —one without meaning and devoid of sense, yet out of which no | way seems possible—God has sent His Judgment to answer yours. |
| M:13.8 | holds out His Word to you, for He has need of teachers. What other | way is there to save His Son? |
| M:14.1 | Their uselessness is recognized, and they are gone. How but in this | way are all illusions ended? They have been brought to truth, and |
| M:16.2 | do apply, although each one must use them as best he can in his own | way. Routines as such are dangerous because they easily become gods |
| M:16.8 | Yet there will be temptations along the | way the teacher of God has yet to travel, and he has need of |
| M:17.2 | There is, however, a temptation to respond to magic in a | way that reinforces it. Nor is this always obvious. It can, in fact, |

| M:20.1 | questions separately, for each reflects a different step along the | way. |
| M:20.2 | God's peace is recognized at first by just one thing—in every | way it is totally unlike all previous experiences. It calls to mind |
| M:20.3 | must deny that peace exists. Who sees anger as justified in any | way or any circumstance proclaims that peace is meaningless and must |
| M:21.4 | The teacher of God must, however, learn to use words in a new | way. Gradually, he learns how to let his words be chosen for him by |
| M:21.4 | case of the workbook lesson “I will step back and let Him lead the | way.” The teacher of God accepts the words which are offered him and |
| M:22.2 | out to him. It is only the end that is certain. Anywhere along the | way, the necessary realization of inclusiveness may reach him. If the |

| M:23.1 | directly. Even the most advanced of God's teachers will give | way to temptation in this world. Would it be fair if their pupils |
| M:23.4 | the gifts that God has given you. And gratitude to God becomes the | way in which He is remembered, for love cannot be far behind a |
| M:23.5 | Jesus has led the | way. Why would you not be grateful to him? He has asked for love, but |

| W1:153.18 | of Him and hear His loving Voice guiding your footsteps into quiet | ways where you will walk in true defenselessness, for you will know |
| W1:154.12 | what we receive until we give it. You have heard this said a hundred | ways, a hundred times, and yet belief is lacking still. But this is |

| Tx:15.66 | keep by making guilty. This is its one attraction; an attraction so | weak that it would have no hold at all, except that no one recognizes |
| Tx:15.90 | you invest in guilt, you withdraw from God. And your sight grows | weak and dim and limited, for you have attempted to separate the |

| W1:153.7 | Defensiveness is | weakness. It proclaims you have denied the Christ and come to fear |

| Tx:24.68 | nothing to add and nothing taken from—not born of size nor | weight nor time nor held to limits or uncertainties of any kind. Here |

| W1:93.3 | meaningless. These thoughts are not according to God's Will. These | weird beliefs He does not share with you. This is enough to prove |
| W1:186.8 | the function God has given us, for all illusions rest upon the | weird belief that we can make another for ourselves. Our self-made |
| W1:191.3 | own Identity, and you will not escape the madness which induced this | weird, unnatural, and ghostly thought which mocks creation and which |

welcome (100) | ||
| Tx:5.40 | ego welcomes it with all its might. The Holy Spirit counters this | welcome by welcoming peace. Peace and eternity are as closely related |

| Tx:8.42 | their strength to us. God's welcome waits for us all, and He will | welcome us as I am welcoming you. Forget not the Kingdom of God for |
| Tx:9.17 | time, and its days are numbered. Do not fear the Last Judgment, but | welcome it and do not wait, for the ego's time is borrowed from your |
| Tx:10.20 | your only Guest. Whenever you ask the ego to enter, you lessen His | welcome. He will remain, but you have allied yourself against Him. |
| Tx:10.36 | Christ is at God's altar, waiting to | welcome His Son. But come wholly without condemnation, for otherwise |
| Tx:11.35 | this place, where God and His Son dwell in peace and where you are | welcome, you will look out in peace and behold the world truly. Yet |

| Tx:12.19 | be hiding a dark place in your mind where the Holy Spirit is not | welcome. And you will exempt yourself from His healing power, for by |

| Tx:1.87 | not to wait on time any longer than is necessary. Time can waste as | well as be wasted. The miracle-worker, therefore, accepts the |
| Tx:2.34 | to be understood from this section is that you can defend truth as | well as error and, in fact, much better. |
| Tx:2.71 | a correction into the whole record which corrects retroactively as | well as progressively. |
| Tx:2.73 | insane thinking? There is a confusion here which you would do | well to look at clearly. You believe that you are responsible for |
| Tx:2.96 | the whole world of the unconscious or “unwatched” mind. This may | well frighten you because it is the source of fear. The unwatched |
| Tx:4.15 | and know that God is real and you are His beloved Son in whom He is | well pleased. Do not let your ego dispute this because the ego cannot |
| Tx:4.28 | in rage if you take away a knife or a scissors, even though they may | well harm themselves if you do not. The speed-up has placed you in |
| Tx:4.47 | The upper level of the unconscious thus contains the Call of God as | well as the call of the body. That is why the basic conflict between |
| Tx:4.64 | that hinder its accomplishment, and step away from them. Judge how | well you have done this by your own feelings, for this is the one |
| Tx:4.82 | however, is a scarcity concept, and this the ego understands | well. “A little,” then, is perceived as the real threat. |
| Tx:4.98 | Existence as | well as being rests on communication. Existence, however, is specific |
| Tx:4.104 | without ambivalence because it is afraid of its own weakness as | well as the weakness of its chosen home. When it is threatened, the |
| Tx:5.33 | God. Since you are part of God, it is also the idea of yourself as | well as of all the parts of God. The idea of the Holy Spirit shares |
| Tx:5.40 | eternity are as closely related as are time and war. Perception as | well as knowledge derives meaning from relationships. Those which you |
| Tx:5.66 | you have not learned it. But again, your decision can be unmade as | well as made. Remember, though, that the alternatives are unalterable. |
| Tx:5.83 | his understanding because he was afraid and, as you know all too | well, fear is incompatible with good judgment. Fear distorts thinking |
| Tx:5.88 | Essentially, this was the basis of Freud's pessimism, personally as | well as theoretically. He tried every means his very inventive mind |
| Tx:6.20 | I had learned the Atonement prayer, which I also came to teach, too | well to engage in upside-down thinking myself. If the Apostles had |
| Tx:6.28 | directed by the mind which has a better Voice. The Holy Spirit as | well as the ego utilizes projection, but since their goals are |
| Tx:6.33 | is of yours. Because your minds are split, you can also perceive as | well as think. Yet perception cannot escape from the basic laws of |
| Tx:6.33 | unnecessary, you made it, and the Holy Spirit can therefore use it | well. He can inspire perception and lead it toward God by making it |
| Tx:6.45 | speaks first because it is capricious and does not mean its maker | well. That is because it believes, and correctly, that its maker may |
| Tx:6.45 | may withdraw his support from it at any moment. If it meant you | well, it would be glad, as the Holy Spirit will be glad when He has |
| Tx:6.65 | is sharing, it becomes communion. You might argue that fear as | well as love can be communicated and therefore can be shared. Yet |
| Tx:7.10 | you believe. This is an immutable law of the mind in this world as | well as in the Kingdom. However, the content is different in this |
| Tx:7.26 | always teaching. You must therefore be teaching something else as | well, even though the ego does not know what it is. |
| Tx:7.42 | God if he thinks he has something that others [do not]. You might | well ask, then, why some healing can result from this kind of |
| Tx:7.76 | accords them always, because they are His beloved Sons in whom He is | well pleased. You cannot be apart from them, because you are not |
| Tx:7.108 | of grace, he is out of his natural environment and does not function | well. Everything he does becomes a strain, because he was not created |
| Tx:7.111 | very difficult for you. Out of your natural environment, you may | well ask, “What is truth?” since truth is the environment by which |
| Tx:8.70 | why definitions in terms of function are inferior is that they may | well be inaccurate. Functions are part of being since they arise from |
| Tx:8.78 | You might | well ask how the voice of something which does not exist can be so |
| Tx:9.33 | because we are part of you, everything we do belongs to you as | well. Every Soul God created is part of you and shares His glory with |
| Tx:11.9 | disguise as a crucial step in the undoing of the ego. Consider how | well the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the motives of others will |
| Tx:12.26 | of time, and it is with this notion that your questioning might | well begin. The ego invests heavily in the past and in the end |
| Tx:12.48 | Time can release as | well as imprison, depending on whose interpretation of it you use. |
| Tx:13.47 | seeing it quite clearly. The Holy Spirit uses logic as easily and as | well as does the ego, except that His conclusions are not insane. |
| Tx:15.68 | that what you do to others, you have escaped. The ego wishes no one | well. Yet its survival depends on your belief that you are exempt |
| Tx:15.71 | he demands the other accept the guilt and sacrifice himself as | well. Forgiveness becomes impossible, for the ego believes that to |
| Tx:16.7 | of specialness. Only the Holy Spirit recognizes foolish needs as | well as real ones. And He will teach you how to meet both without |
| Tx:16.21 | You have taught | well, and yet you have not learned how to accept the comfort of your |
| Tx:18.68 | of the course if you insist on using means which have served others | well, neglecting what was made for you. Save time for me by only this |
| Tx:19.45 | in acknowledgment of the journey's end. For Heaven knows you | well, as you know Heaven. No illusions stand between you now. Look |
| Tx:20.9 | Him to see His purpose shine forth from every altar now is yours as | well as His. He sees no strangers, only dearly loved and loving |
| Tx:20.43 | brother's body offers you. The veil that hides the gift hides him as | well. He is the gift, and yet he knows it not. No more do you. And |
| Tx:20.59 | and if you want a purpose, you must be willing to want the means as | well. How can one be sincere and say, “I want this above all else, |
| Tx:20.60 | Spirit indeed asked little. He asks no more to give the means as | well. The means are second to the goal. And when you hesitate, it is |
| Tx:20.60 | a goal is possible to reach, the means to do so must be possible as | well. |
| Tx:21.11 | This is the vision of the Son of God, whom you know | well. Here is the sight of him who knows his Father. Here is the |
| Tx:21.11 | you this and not the body. You know the ancient song and know it | well. Nothing will ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn [of |
| Tx:21.12 | song they sing in honor of their Creator gives praise to them as | well. The blindness which they made will not withstand the memory of |
| Tx:21.56 | and belief can be misplaced and serve the great deceiver's needs as | well as truth. But reason has no place at all in madness, nor can it |
| Tx:22.27 | overlooks the world. Would you not have this holy home be yours as | well? No misery is here, but only joy. |
| Tx:23.49 | the means for God's extension, and what is His must be His Son's as | well. Either the Father and the Son are murderers or neither is. Life |
| Tx:23.52 | a twinge of guilt, and above all, a loss of peace. This you know | well. When it occurs, leave not your place on high but quickly choose |
| Tx:24.33 | specialness instead of them. The print of nails are on your hands as | well. Forgive your Father. It was not His Will that you be crucified. |
| Tx:24.38 | is attained nor how to reach it. But do consider, and consider | well, whether it is your wish that you might see your brother |
| Tx:24.39 | him, for you are one. And so is specialness his “enemy” and yours as | well. |
| Tx:24.54 | of specialness that hides the face of Christ from him, and you as | well. And let the fear of God no longer hold the vision you were |
| Tx:24.57 | and he is risen from the past. He who condemned himself, and you as | well, is given you to save from condemnation along with you. And both |
| Tx:24.67 | you serve. Here you are but means, along with it. God is a Means as | well as End. In Heaven, means and end are one, and one with Him. This |
| Tx:24.71 | your specialness whispers, “Here is my own beloved son, in whom I am | well pleased.” Thus does the “son” become the means to serve his |
| Tx:24.72 | for a different purpose. And what you see will serve that purpose | well and prove its own reality to you. |
| Tx:25.49 | it is given you. All that you made can serve salvation easily and | well. The Son of God can make no choice the Holy Spirit cannot employ |
| Tx:25.66 | God knows not of this. But justice does He know and knows it | well. For He is wholly fair to everyone. |
| Tx:25.72 | own justice does He recognize all you deserve but understands as | well that you cannot accept it for yourself. It is His special |
| Tx:25.72 | innocent deserve. And every one that you accept brings joy to Him as | well as you. He knows that Heaven is richer made by each one you |
| Tx:26.76 | Spirit's purpose now is yours. Should not His happiness be yours as | well? |
| Tx:26.77 | be condemned, God is in him. And never will you know He is in you as | well, while you attack His chosen home and battle with His host. |
| Tx:26.82 | dwell within the temple offered them, to be Their resting-place as | well as yours. What hatred has released to love becomes the brightest |
| Tx:27.10 | Pictured without a purpose, it is seen as neither sick nor | well, nor bad nor good. No grounds are offered that it may be judged |
| Tx:27.15 | accusers. They cannot forgive their brothers and themselves as | well. For no one in whom true forgiveness reigns can suffer. He holds |
| Tx:27.19 | guilt upon your brother and yourself. Your healing saves him pain as | well as you, and you are healed because you wished him well. This is |
| Tx:27.19 | him pain as well as you, and you are healed because you wished him | well. This is the law the miracle obeys; that healing sees no |
| Tx:27.39 | But tell it what you want, and it will serve you lovingly and | well.” And this is not a question, for it tells you what you want and |
| Tx:27.47 | reproach, and suffering whispers, “What is there to fear?” Consider | well its question. It is asked of you on your behalf. A dying world |
| Tx:28.19 | —that you have caused the dream and can accept another dream as | well. But for this change in content of the dream, it must be |
| Tx:28.21 | but does not know he sleeps. He sees illusions of himself as sick or | well, depressed or happy, but without a stable cause with guaranteed |
| Tx:28.41 | the gap between you, or you must believe that it is your reality as | well as his. You cannot do his part, but this you do when you become |
| Tx:28.42 | if you took your own away would he be free of them and of his own as | well. Your dreams are witnesses to his, and his attest the truth of |
| Tx:28.63 | to be a form, yet it is one, as is its opposite. And you are sick or | well accordingly. |
| Tx:29.42 | Let this be changed, and nothing in the world but must be changed as | well. For nothing here but is defined as what you see it for. How |
| Tx:29.60 | not lose it, did He also give the same to every living thing as | well. And thus is every living thing a part of you, as of Himself. No |
| Tx:30.2 | The proper set, adopted consciously each time you wake, will put you | well ahead. And if you find resistance strong and dedication weak, |
| Tx:30.9 | These two procedures, practiced | well, will serve to let you be directed without fear, for opposition |
| Tx:30.27 | a question that makes sense, and so the answer will make sense as | well. Nor will you fight against it, for you see that it is you who |
| Tx:30.31 | The second rule as | well is but a fact. For you and your advisor must agree on what you |
| Tx:30.31 | are made by you and your advisor for yourself and for the world as | well. The day you want you offer to the world, for it will be what |
| Tx:30.35 | Now hear God speak to you through Him Who is His Voice and yours as | well, reminding you that it is not your will to hate and be a |
| Tx:30.68 | an idol thoughtlessly, remembering that he will pay the cost as | well as you. For he will be delayed when you look back, and you will |
| Tx:31.16 | you gave the leader's role when you would have it, and you hate as | well his not assuming it at times you want to let the follower in you |
| Tx:31.17 | is life as easily as death, for what you choose, you choose as | well for him. Two calls you make to him, as he to you. Between these |
| Tx:31.17 | hear in him is but your own. What does he ask you for? And listen | well! For he is asking what will come to you because you see an image |
| Tx:31.26 | and to every situation that occurs. Learn this and learn it | well, for it is here delay of happiness is shortened by a span of |
| Tx:31.43 | a concept of the self adjusted to the world's reality. It fits it | well. For this an image is that suits a world of shadows and |
| Tx:31.48 | points to him, unwavering and deadly in its aim. It points to you as | well, but this is kept still deeper in the mists below the face of |
| Tx:31.51 | you should do in every circumstance? He must have made the world as | well as you to have such prescience in the things to come. |
| Tx:31.70 | perceived as coming from the “baser” part of you and thus of him as | well. By focusing upon the good in him, the body grows decreasingly |
| Tx:31.81 | to make yourself a thing which you are not. And think as | well upon the thing that you would be instead. It is a thing of |
| W1:4.2 | specificity is required. Do not be afraid to use “good” thoughts as | well as “bad.” None of them represents your real thoughts, which are |
| W1:23.3 | is a pictorial representation of your own attack thoughts. One can | well ask if this can be called seeing. Is not fantasy a better word |
| W1:29.1 | explains every idea we have used thus far and all subsequent ones as | well. Today's idea is the whole basis for vision. |
| W1:30.4 | to this idea, try to think of things beyond your present range as | well as those you can actually see, as you apply today's idea. Real |
| W1:30.5 | To aid in helping you to become more accustomed to this idea as | well, devote several practice periods to applying today's idea with |
| W1:35.5 | exercise period, however, more self-inflating descriptive terms may | well cross your mind. Try to recognize that the direction of your |
| W1:36.1 | part of God's. And because you are holy, your sight must be holy as | well. “Sinless” means without sin. You cannot be without sin a |
| W1:40.2 | not miss a practice period because of this. You can practice quite | well under almost any circumstance, if you really want to. |
| W1:43.14 | This form is equally applicable to strangers and to those you know | well. Try, in fact, not to make distinctions of this kind at all. |
| W1:45.2 | are in the Mind of God, as you are. They are in your mind as | well, where He is. As you are part of His Mind, so are your thoughts |
| W1:46.4 | If you are doing the exercises | well, you should have no difficulty in finding a number of people you |
| W1:53.2 | what it produces. Reality is not insane, and I have real thoughts as | well as insane ones. I can therefore see a real world if I look to my |
| W1:54.3 | of mind can change. And so I also know the world I see can change as | well. |
| W1:54.4 | And the world my real thoughts show me will dawn on their sight as | well as mine. |
| W1:62.4 | for you as God wants you to be. And it will help those around you as | well as those who seem to be far away in space and time to share this |
| W1:64.5 | of it in the morning and again at night and all through the day as | well. |
| W1:65.4 | to arrange your day so that you have set apart the time for God, as | well as for all the trivial purposes and goals you will pursue. This |
| W1:70.3 | in your own mind entails the realization that salvation is there as | well. |
| W1:70.7 | follow this practice for a number of lessons, and it would again be | well to decide in advance when would be a good time to lay aside for |
| W1:72.4 | is God attacked, for if His Son is only a body, so must He be as | well. A creator wholly unlike his creation is inconceivable. |
| W1:72.7 | cannot enter, the ego comes to save you. God made you a body. Very | well. Let us accept this and be glad. As a body, do not let yourself |
| W1:73.7 | want. Such is your will in truth. And so salvation is your will as | well. You want to succeed in what we are trying to do today. We |
| W1:74.15 | or two every half-hour, with eyes closed if possible, would be | well spent on this today. |
| W1:76.12 | creation endlessly increased. His Voice will speak of this to us, as | well as of the joys of Heaven which His laws keep limitless forever. |
| W1:76.14 | as often as possible today—at least four or five times an hour, as | well as in response to any temptation to experience ourselves as |
| W1:78.7 | he gave. We will regard his body with its flaws and better points as | well, and we will think of his mistakes and even of his “sins.” |
| W1:78.12 | may share it with them. For you both, and all the sightless ones as | well, we pray: |
| W1:R2.5 | Reaffirm your determination in the shorter practice periods as | well, using the original form of the idea for general application and |
| W1:87.7 | Will of God. It is God's Will you are His Son, [name], and mine as | well. This is part of God's Will for me, however I may see it. |
| W1:94.2 | your sinlessness must be the guarantee of strength and light as | well. You are as God created you. Darkness cannot obscure the glory |
| W1:95.8 | There may | well be a temptation to regard the day as lost because you have |
| W1:98.11 | then of Him Who knows the function that you have on earth as | well as Heaven. He will be with you each practice period you share |
| W1:99.9 | You who will yet work miracles, be sure you practice | well the idea for today. Try to perceive the strength in what you |
| W1:100.5 | we do, we fail to take the part that is essential to God's plan as | well as to our vision. Sadness is the sign that you would play |
| W1:103.1 | has no limits, being everywhere. And therefore joy is everywhere as | well. Yet can the mind deny that this is so, believing there are gaps |
| W1:105.6 | You will understand that what completes Him must complete His Son as | well. He cannot give through loss. No more can you. Receive His gift |
| W1:107.10 | by the self-same thought which gave the gift of life to Him as | well. He is your brother and so like to you your Father knows that |
| W1:109.10 | doors, and let them come from far across the world, and near as | well—your distant brothers and your closest friends—bid them all |
| W1:R3.7 | them in perfect trust, in perfect confidence that you would use them | well, in perfect faith that you would see their messages and use them |
| W1:R3.7 | Since it has His trust, His means must surely merit yours as | well. |
| W1:R3.10 | Here is another chance to use it | well. In these reviews we stress the need to let your learning not |
| W1:R3.11 | and let it serve to help you keep your peace throughout the day as | well. If you are shaken, think of it again. These practice periods |
| W1:R3.13 | to use each hour and the one to be applied on each half hour as | well. Forget them not. This second chance with each of these ideas |
| W1:121.6 | an idea you taught yourself, forgiveness must be learned by you as | well, but from a Teacher other than yourself, who represents the |
| W1:123.1 | remains, some small objections, and a little hesitance, but we can | well be grateful for our gains, which are far greater than we realize. |
| W1:123.3 | will remain shining on you, forever without change. Give thanks as | well that you are changeless, for the Son He loves is changeless as |
| W1:123.5 | if it be not heard. In thanking Him the thanks are yours as | well. An unheard message will not save the world, however mighty be |
| W1:124.5 | which they were created. And we see it in the dying and the dead as | well, restoring them to life. All this we see because we saw it first |
| W1:124.7 | as we say that we are one with God. For in these words we say as | well that we are saved and healed, that we can save and heal |
| W1:127.4 | There is no limit placed upon Himself, and so are you unlimited as | well. |
| W1:127.5 | upholds but violates the truth of what love is, and what you are as | well. Seek not within the world to find your Self. Love is not found |
| W1:128.8 | Protect your mind throughout the day as | well. And when you think you see some value in an aspect or an image |
| W1:131.5 | Be glad that search you must. Be glad as | well to learn you search for Heaven and must find the goal you really |
| W1:131.14 | the senseless world you think is real. Review the thoughts as | well which are compatible with such a world and which you think are |
| W1:132.19 | realize that healing comes to many brothers far across the world as | well as to the ones you see near by as you send out these thoughts to |
| W1:136.1 | what purpose sickness seems to serve. For then he understands as | well its purpose has no meaning. Being causeless and without a |
| W1:136.19 | has been opened to relief. And you will recognize you practiced | well by this—the body should not feel at all. If you have been |
| W1:136.19 | been successful, there will be no sense of feeling ill or feeling | well, of pain or pleasure. No response at all is in the mind to what |
| W1:136.20 | laws you made it serve before. You need do nothing now to make it | well, for sickness has become impossible. |
| W1:137.14 | to these thoughts with which we will conclude today at night as | well: |
| W1:137.16 | thoughts that ever were imagined. Now we come together to make | well all that was sick and offer blessing where there was attack. Nor |
| W1:138.1 | and what we want we choose. If Heaven exists, there must be hell as | well, for contradiction is the way we make what we perceive and what |
| W1:138.7 | is seen as conflict. To resolve the conflict is to end your life as | well. |
| W1:140.1 | takes another form, and so the patient now perceives himself as | well. |
| W1:140.2 | he was sick, and in the dream he found a magic formula to make him | well. Yet he has not awakened from the dream, and so his mind remains |
| W1:151.10 | Let Him be judge as | well of everything that seems to happen to you in this world. His |
| W1:152.3 | too often said and thought about. For if what is not true is true as | well as what is true, then part of truth is false, and truth has lost |
| W1:152.11 | To recognize God's Son implies as | well that all self-concepts have been laid aside and recognized as |
| W1:153.1 | the “gifts” it merely lends to take away again, attend this lesson | well. The world provides no safety. It is rooted in attack and all |
| W1:153.10 | are among the chosen ones of God by His election and their own as | well? |
| W1:154.2 | selected by the Voice for God, Whose function is to speak for you as | well. Seeing your strengths exactly as they are and equally aware of |
| W1:154.9 | for you the messages of God would have them be received by you as | well. For thus do you identify with Him and claim your own. |
| W1:155.10 | illusions walking in the way you traveled will be gone from you as | well, with nothing left to keep the truth apart from God's |
| W1:156.3 | Yet where He is there must be holiness as | well as life. No attribute of His remains unshared by everything that |
| W1:157.8 | will have no need of it. Yet now it has a purpose and will serve it | well. Today we will embark upon a course you have not dreamed of. But |
| W1:158.1 | was given you as knowledge which you cannot lose. It was given as | well to every living thing, for by that knowledge only does it live. |
| W1:158.10 | to give as you receive. And thus Christ's vision looks on you as | well. This lesson is not difficult to learn if you remember in your |
| W1:158.11 | by the holy gifts we give, Christ's vision looks upon ourselves as | well. |
| W1:163.7 | eternal life gave way to death. And with the Father died the Son as | well. |
| W1:163.8 | we renounce it now in every form for their salvation and our own as | well. God made not death. Whatever form it takes must therefore be |
| W1:166.12 | reminded you of all the gifts that God has given you. He speaks as | well of what becomes your will when you accept these gifts and |
| W1:167.4 | becoming different from their own origin, apart from it in kind as | well as distance, time, and form. |
| W1:167.11 | that we share with Him, with all creation, with their thoughts as | well, whom He created in a unity of life that cannot separate in |
| W1:181.1 | Self that lies beyond your own mistakes and past his seeming sins as | well as yours. |
| W1:181.9 | inevitably ours. And the love He feels for us becomes our own as | well. This will become the only thing we see reflected in the world |
| W1:182.5 | the holy air that fills His Father's house. You are His home as | well. He will return. But give Him just a little time to be Himself |
| W1:183.10 | can accept today the part you play in its salvation and your own as | well, and both can be accomplished perfectly. |
| W1:184.2 | is achieved. You see something where nothing is and see as | well nothing where there is unity—a space between all things, |
| W1:184.3 | nameless things were given names and thus reality was given them as | well. For what is named is given meaning and will then be seen as |
| W1:184.9 | the symbols of the world a while. But be you not deceived by them as | well. They do not stand for anything at all, and in your practicing, |
| W1:185.10 | peace of God. And so do all who seem to seek for dreams. For them as | well as for yourself you ask but this when you make this request with |
| W1:186.1 | proper role. It but acknowledges the Will of God is done on earth as | well as Heaven. It unites all wills on earth in Heaven's plan to save |
| W1:186.2 | suited perfectly to take the part assigned to us by One Who knows us | well. |
| W1:187.5 | of them. There is a giver who retains, another who will give as | well. And both must gain in this exchange, for each will have the |
| W1:187.6 | to recognize the many forms which sacrifice may take. He laughs as | well at pain and loss, at sickness and at grief, at poverty, |
| W1:187.8 | will correct it. Given first to you, it now is yours to give as | well. No form of sacrifice and suffering can long endure before the |
| W1:188.1 | of the world, yet you who bear the light in you are alien here as | well. The light came with you from your native home and stayed with |
| W1:188.4 | what it has forgotten, and the world restores the memory to you as | well. From you salvation radiates with gifts beyond all measure, |
| W1:188.7 | God's peace is shining on them, but they must remain with you as | well, for they were born within your mind as yours was born in God's. |
| W1:189.8 | merely to let Him be. For in that way is your reality acclaimed as | well. |
| W1:189.10 | find and follow. And we ask but that Your Will, which is our own as | well, be done in us and in the world, that it becomes a part of |
| W1:191.1 | your declaration of release from bondage of the world. And here as | well is all the world released. You do not see what you have done by |
| W1:191.6 | holy Son of God Himself. And with this holy thought, you learn as | well that you have freed the world. You have no need to use it |
| W1:194.4 | experience that you have laid the past and present in His hands as | well because the past will punish you no more and future dread will |
| W1:196.11 | time when it can kill at last. Yet in this instant is the time as | well in which salvation comes. For fear of God has disappeared. And |
| W1:197.3 | it release from your illusions. Yet your thanks belong to you as | well, for its release can only mirror yours. Your gratitude is all |
| W1:198.12 | Let today be celebrated both on earth and in your holy home as | well. Be kind to both, as you forgive the trespasses you thought them |
| W1:199.5 | the world, and none which will not gain in added gifts to you as | well. We sound the call of freedom round the world with this idea. |
| W1:199.6 | of freedom as its goal, the body serves, and serves its purpose | well. Without the power to enslave, it is a worthy servant of the |
| W1:199.8 | live forever. Would you not return your mind to this? Then practice | well the thought the Holy Spirit gives you for today. Your brothers |
| W1:203.1 | from every thought of evil and of sin, because it is my own as | well as His. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W2:WF.3 | is its purpose and the means by which it would accomplish it as | well. It sets about its furious attempts to smash reality, without |
| W2:224.1 | that Heaven looks to it to give it light. It lights the world as | well. It is the gift my Father gave me, the one as well I give the |
| W2:224.1 | the world as well. It is the gift my Father gave me, the one as | well I give the world. There is no gift but this that can be either |
| W2:WS.1 | an end, and all the thoughts that have been born in time will end as | well. God's Word is given every mind which thinks that it has |
| W2:231.2 | my brother. And you share this will with me, and with the One as | well Who is our Father. To remember Him is Heaven. This we seek. And |
| W2:233.1 | mine. In place of them, give me Your own. I give You all my acts as | well, that I may do Your will instead of seeking goals which cannot |
| W2:237.2 | I come to You through Him Who is Your Son and my true Self as | well. Amen. |
| W2:238.1 | be beloved of You indeed. And I must be steadfast in holiness as | well, that You would give Your Son to me in certainty that He is safe |
| W2:240.2 | his holiness and feel the love for him that is Your own as | well. |
| W2:WIW.1 | errors vanish. Now its source has gone, and its effects are gone as | well. |
| W2:246.2 | Will. And I would recognize that what You will is what I will as | well and only that. And so I choose to love Your Son. Amen. |
| W2:247.2 | them and gave them all to me as part of You and my own Self as | well. Today I honor You through them, and thus I hope this day to |
| W2:248.2 | my ancient love for You returns and lets me love Your Son again as | well. Father, I am as You created me. Now is Your Love remembered and |
| W2:WIS.2 | replacement for the goal of self-deception. Truth can be its aim as | well as lies. The senses then will seek instead for witnesses to what |
| W2:257.1 | in my actions. No one can serve contradicting goals and serve them | well. Nor can he function without deep distress and great depression. |
| W2:257.2 | have no will but Yours today. And thus our purpose must be Yours as | well if we would reach the peace You will for us. |
| W2:265.2 | I look upon the world, which but reflects Your thoughts and mine as | well. Let me remember that they are the same, and I will see |
| W2:WIC.1 | He is the Self we share, uniting us with one another and with God as | well. He is the Thought Which still abides within the Mind That is |
| W2:274.1 | brother and his friend. Through this I am redeemed. Through this as | well the truth will enter where illusions were, light will replace |
| W2:280.2 | that I give to him is Yours, and what is Yours belongs to me as | well. |
| W2:281.2 | not attack the Son He loves, for what He loves is mine to love as | well. |
| W2:291.1 | accept this vision in its name, both for myself and for the world as | well. What loveliness we look upon today! What holiness we see |
| W2:294.1 | I am a Son of God. And can I be another thing as | well? Did God create the mortal and corruptible? What use has God's |
| W2:WILJ.2 | slips away to nothingness. There it was born, and there it ends as | well. And all the figures in the dream in which the world began go |
| W2:312.2 | this is Your will for me today, and therefore it must be my goal as | well. |
| W2:315.1 | and giving me his certainty that what he learned is surely mine as | well. |
| W2:316.1 | gift a brother has received throughout all time and past all time as | well. My treasure house is full, and angels watch its open doors that |
| W2:317.1 | is already here, already given all my brothers and already mine as | well. |
| W2:318.1 | God's Son, His one Eternal Love. I am salvation's means and end as | well. |
| W2:320.2 | Your Will can do all things in me and then extend to all the world as | well through me. There is no limit on Your Will. And so all power has |
| W2:335.2 | In him I find my Self, and in Your Son I find the memory of You as | well. |
| W2:343.1 | created me to be like You, so sacrifice becomes impossible for me as | well as You. I too must give, and so all things are given unto me |
| W2:348.2 | that He would have us do. And only that we choose to be our will, as | well as His. |
| W2:WAI.2 | that we shared. And thus you joined with me. So what I am are you as | well. The truth of what we are is not for words to speak of nor |
| W2:354.1 | His own. And He is like His Father. Thus must I be one with You as | well as Him. For who is Christ except Your Son as You created Him? |
| W2:358.1 | me comes from God Himself. Your Voice, my Father, then is mine as | well, and all I want is what You offer me, in just the form You chose |
| W2:E.5 | The end is certain and the means as | well. To this we say “Amen.” We will be told exactly what God wills |
| M:I.1 | on every moment of the day and continues into sleeping thoughts as | well. |
| M:4.10 | before becomes solid gains, to be counted on in all “emergencies” as | well as tranquil times. Indeed, the tranquility is their result—the |
| M:4.16 | is their song of thanks. And Christ looks down on them in thanks as | well. His need of them is just as great as theirs of Him. How joyous |
| M:4.20 | true for everything that happens now or in the future. The past as | well held no mistakes—nothing that did not serve to benefit the |
| M:4.20 | no mistakes—nothing that did not serve to benefit the world as | well as him to whom it seemed to happen. Perhaps it was not |
| M:11.1 | Yet the Word of God promises other things that seem impossible, as | well as this. His Word has promised peace. It has also promised that |
| M:16.2 | they were set up. Broadly speaking, then, it can be said that it is | well to start the day right. It is always possible to begin again, |
| M:17.1 | his own belief in sin and has condemned himself. He can be sure as | well that he has asked for depression, pain, fear, and disaster to |
| M:22.4 | both in the individual's perception of himself and of all others as | well. Nor is it at this level that the teacher of God calls forth the |
| M:24.3 | on it were required of him, it would merely limit his usefulness as | well as his own decision-making. Our course is not concerned with any |
| M:25.1 | abilities of which he is unaware. As his awareness increases, he may | well develop abilities that seem quite startling to him. Yet nothing |
| M:26.3 | goal. If it happens, so be it. If it does not happen, so be it as | well. All worldly states must be illusory. If God were reached |
| M:27.3 | him and to last a little while by his destruction. Yet the worms as | well are doomed to be destroyed as certainly. And so do all things |
| M:29.5 | and thank Him for His guidance at night. And your confidence will be | well founded indeed. |
| M:29.8 | join your efforts on behalf of God, knowing they are on my behalf as | well and for all those who walk to God with me. |

| Tx:2.16 | sets you free, but which also shows you clearly that you are free. | Whatever lies you may believe are of no concern to the miracle, which |
| Tx:2.30 | Flight can be undertaken in | whatever direction you choose, but note that the concept itself |
| Tx:2.59 | In fact, if it is truly used, it will inevitably be expressed in | whatever way is most helpful to the receiver[, not the giver]. This |
| Tx:2.90 | even try to “free” the patient by persuading him that he can think | whatever he wants without any real effect at all. |
| Tx:2.99 | Two concepts which cannot coexist are “nothing” and “everything.” To | whatever extent one is believed in, the other has been denied. In the |
| Tx:2.105 | man creates is necessarily a matter of will. It also follows that | whatever he creates is real in his own sight but not necessarily in |

| Tx:4.98 | communication with everything that is real, including the Soul. To | whatever extent you permit this state to be curtailed, you are |
| Tx:5.63 | Whatever you accept into your mind has reality for you. It is, | |
| Tx:6.60 | He merely shines them away. His light is always the call to awake, | whatever you have been dreaming. Nothing lasting lies in dreams, and |
| Tx:6.82 | you allow to enter your mind in the light of what God put there. | Whatever is in accord with this light, He retains to strengthen the |
| Tx:7.99 | mind depend at any given moment on what you believe about your mind. | Whatever these beliefs may be, they are the premises which will |
| Tx:8.24 | Power and glory belong to God alone. So do you. God gives | whatever belongs to Him, because He gives of Himself, and everything |
| Tx:8.33 | which He will share with all His creations, to whom He gives equally | whatever is acceptable to Him. Because it is acceptable to Him, it is |
| Tx:9.81 | seem to speak to you, remember that nothing can replace God, and | whatever replacements you have attempted are nothing. |
| Tx:9.85 | you will make him real to you. But if you refuse to worship him in | whatever form he may appear to you and wherever you think you see |
| Tx:10.5 | place of His Son, where He wills His Son to be and where he is. In | whatever part of the Mind of God's Son you restore this reality, you |
| Tx:10.20 | welcome. He will remain, but you have allied yourself against Him. | Whatever journey you choose to take, He will go with you, waiting. |
| Tx:10.49 | Your recognition that | whatever seems to separate you from God is only fear, regardless of |

| Tx:11.26 | Whenever you become angry with a brother, for | whatever reason, you are believing that the ego is to be saved and to |
| Tx:11.41 | eternal life. For death is not your Father's Will nor yours, and | whatever is true is the Will of the Father. You pay no price for |
| Tx:11.55 | You do not want the world. The only thing of value in it is | whatever part of it you look upon with love. This gives it the only |
| Tx:11.56 | remembering of God. Christ's eyes are open, and He will look upon | whatever you see with love if you accept His vision as yours. |
| Tx:12.69 | where the ego sees salvation, it sees separation, and so you lose | whatever you have gotten in its name. Therefore ask not of yourselves |
| Tx:13.13 | and if you place your faith in the past, the future will be like it. | Whatever you hold as dear, you think is yours. The power of your |
| Tx:13.25 | As long as you believe that guilt is justified in any way in anyone | whatever he may do, you will not look within, where you would always |
| Tx:13.39 | can prevent what God would have accomplished from accomplishment. | Whatever your reactions to the Holy Spirit's Voice may be, whatever |
| Tx:13.39 | Whatever your reactions to the Holy Spirit's Voice may be, | whatever voice you choose to listen to, whatever strange thoughts may |
| Tx:13.39 | Holy Spirit's Voice may be, whatever voice you choose to listen to, | whatever strange thoughts may occur to you, God's Will is done. You |
| Tx:13.71 | make your invulnerability manifest to everyone, and teach him that | whatever he may try to do to you, your perfect freedom from the |
| Tx:13.89 | You will feel guilty till you learn this. For in the end, | whatever form it takes, your guilt arises from your failure to |
| Tx:14.23 | function is entirely communication. He therefore must remove | whatever interferes with it in order to restore it. Therefore, keep |
| Tx:14.60 | in the past, but its influence determines the present by giving it | whatever meaning it holds for you. Your learning gives the present no |
| Tx:15.23 | have peace, for you will have judged yourself unworthy of it. And | whatever you offer as a substitute is much too poor a gift to satisfy |
| Tx:15.79 | to learn of Him what the truth must be. He is swift to utilize | whatever you offer Him on behalf of this. His concern and care for |
| Tx:15.83 | you what you do not understand. God would respond to every need, | whatever form it takes. And so He has kept this channel open to |
| Tx:15.97 | As host to the ego, you believe that you can give all your guilt away | whatever you think and purchase peace. And the payment does not seem |
| Tx:16.35 | necessary to seek for what is false. Every illusion is one of fear, | whatever form it takes. And the attempt to escape from one illusion |
| Tx:16.43 | seem to be gone. All these must be understood for what they are. | Whatever form they take, they are always an attack on the self to |
| Tx:17.16 | what is not there and make of both the slaves of vengeance. And why | whatever reminds you of your past grievances, no matter how distorted |
| Tx:17.27 | nothing God created but would extend happiness as its Creator did. | Whatever fulfills this function not cannot be real. |
| Tx:18.14 | what you would have preferred. Here, you are “free” to make over | whatever seemed to attack you and change it into a tribute to your |
| Tx:18.33 | They are not enough. But trust implicitly your willingness, | whatever else may enter. Concentrate only on this and be not |
| Tx:18.46 | But forget not that your relationship is one, and so it must be that | whatever threatens the peace of one is an equal threat to the other. |
| Tx:19.69 | of itself, but only what is given to it. The body will seem to be | whatever is the means for reaching the goal that you assign to it. |
| Tx:19.71 | become your purpose. The attraction of guilt must enter with it, and | whatever fear directs the body to do is therefore painful. It will |
| Tx:19.110 | that gives this world and the long journey through this world | whatever meaning lies in them. Beyond this they are meaningless. You |
| Tx:20.17 | The ego is the self-appointed mediator of all relationships, making | whatever adjustments it deems necessary and interposing them between |
| Tx:22.8 | of guilt is only fear. Here is the one emotion that you made, | whatever it may seem to be. This is the emotion of secrecy, of |
| Tx:24.9 | chose to see no specialness of any kind between you? Look fairly at | whatever makes you give each other only partial welcome or would let |
| Tx:24.23 | Specialness is the seal of treachery upon the gift of love. | Whatever serves its purpose must be given to kill. No gift that bears |
| Tx:24.27 | Whatever form of specialness you cherish, you have made sin. | |
| Tx:24.34 | deadly and dangerous, hated and worthy only of destruction. | Whatever gentleness it offers is but deception, but its hate is real. |
| Tx:24.66 | rests secure. If not, it has no purpose and is means for nothing. | Whatever is perceived as means for truth shares in its holiness and |
| Tx:25.37 | to draw a meaning from the other. Each depends upon the other for | whatever sense it seems to have. And no one could believe in one |
| Tx:25.38 | else,” a “something” to be feared instead of loved. Who would attack | whatever he perceives as wholly innocent? And who, because he wishes |
| Tx:25.39 | to see. Nor do you hear his plaintive call, unchanged in content in | whatever form the call is made, that you unite with him and join with |
| Tx:25.58 | to understand it cost him his sanity and stands between him and | whatever hope he has of being sane. Nor is he left without escape |
| Tx:25.66 | that one should lack for what another has. For that is vengeance in | whatever form it takes. Justice demands no sacrifice, for any |
| Tx:26.10 | the same approach. The aspects which need solving do not change, | whatever form the problem seems to take. A problem can appear in many |
| Tx:26.36 | dream be to where he really is? For this is fact and does not change | whatever dreams he has. Yet can he still imagine he is elsewhere and |
| Tx:26.62 | purpose they were made to serve. And from their purpose, they derive | whatever meaning that they seem to have. God gave to all illusions |
| Tx:26.62 | that were made another purpose that would justify a miracle, | whatever form they took. In every miracle all healing lies, for God |
| Tx:26.85 | limited. If it occurs at all, it will be total. And its presence, in | whatever form, will hide Their Presence. They are known with clarity |
| Tx:26.88 | that you are innocent of this and victimized despite your innocence? | Whatever way the game of guilt is played, there must be loss. Someone |
| Tx:27.7 | them paint the picture in which sin is justified, is sickness in | whatever form it takes. |
| Tx:27.8 | them if they enjoy their benefits or not. The end of life must come, | whatever way that life be spent. And so take pleasure in the quickly |
| Tx:27.39 | can bring escape from all the pain of which this world is made?” | Whatever form the question takes, its purpose is the same. It asks |
| Tx:27.57 | what it should feel and what its function is. Yet must He love | whatever you hold dear. And for each witness to the body's death He |
| Tx:27.68 | himself as making them, and their reality does not depend on him. | Whatever cause they have is something quite apart from him, and what |
| Tx:27.86 | takes the role of enemy and of attacker, still is this the truth. | Whatever seems to be the cause of any pain and suffering you feel, |
| Tx:27.86 | dream. This single lesson learned will set you free from suffering, | whatever form it takes. |
| Tx:27.87 | learned, regardless of the form of suffering that brings you pain. | Whatever hurt you bring to Him He will make answer with this very |
| Tx:28.38 | certainty right here and now. Refuse to be a part of fearful dreams | whatever form they take, for you will lose identity in them. You find |
| Tx:29.30 | of love. For at its center is His love for you, which lights | whatever form it takes with love. |
| Tx:30.1 | We seek to make them habits now, so you will have them ready for | whatever need. |
| Tx:30.29 | statement of a simple fact. You will not make decisions by yourself | whatever you decide. For they are made with idols or with God. And |
| Tx:30.54 | about when you decide one very simple thing—you do not want | whatever you believe an idol gives. For thus the Son of God declares |
| Tx:31.26 | You never hate your brother for his sins, but only for your own. | Whatever form his sins appear to take, it but obscures the fact that |

| Tx:31.79 | Whatever form temptation seems to take, it always but reflects a wish | |
| W1:I.5 | to make no exceptions in applying the ideas the exercises contain. | Whatever your reactions to the ideas may be, use them. Nothing more |
| W1:1.1 | around you, and practice applying this idea very specifically to | whatever you see: |
| W1:2.1 | one. Begin with the things that are near you, and apply the idea to | whatever your glance rests on. Then increase the range outward. Turn |
| W1:2.1 | Then increase the range outward. Turn your head so that you include | whatever is to either side. If possible, turn around and apply the |
| W1:3.1 | way as the previous ones, without making distinctions of any kind. | Whatever you see becomes a proper subject for applying the idea. Be |
| W1:5.1 | or event you think is causing you pain. Apply it specifically to | whatever you believe is the cause of your upset, using the |
| W1:5.1 | is the cause of your upset, using the description of the feeling in | whatever term seems accurate to you. The upset may seem to be fear, |
| W1:5.7 | Then examine your mind for | whatever is distressing you, regardless of how much or how little you |
| W1:7.10 | Look about you. This is equally true of | whatever you look at. Acknowledge this by applying the idea for today |
| W1:7.10 | Acknowledge this by applying the idea for today indiscriminately to | whatever catches your eye. For example: |
| W1:9.3 | involve looking about you and applying the idea for the day to | whatever you see, remembering the need for its indiscriminate |
| W1:12.2 | What you see does not matter. You teach yourself this as you give | whatever your glance rests on equal attention and equal time. This is |
| W1:12.5 | and so on, using | whatever descriptive terms happen to occur to you. If terms which |

| W1:14.6 | illness,” but, “God did not create cancer,” or heart attacks, or | whatever may arouse fear in you. |
| W1:15.4 | idea for today, repeat it first to yourself, and then apply it to | whatever you see around you, using its name and letting your eyes |
| W1:25.6 | today followed by looking about you and letting your glance rest on | whatever happens to catch your eye, near or far, “important” or |
| W1:26.12 | less acceptable to you. Try, however, to treat them all alike to | whatever extent you can. |
| W1:28.7 | in which the idea for the day is stated first and then applied to | whatever you see in looking about you. Not only should the subjects |
| W1:30.5 | periods to applying today's idea with your eyes closed, using | whatever subjects come to mind and looking within rather than |
| W1:31.3 | As you survey your inner world, merely let | whatever thoughts cross your mind come into your awareness, each to |
| W1:36.3 | and look quite slowly about you, applying the idea specifically to | whatever you note in your casual survey. Say, for example: |
| W1:37.4 | by a minute or so of looking about you as you apply the idea to | whatever you see: |
| W1:38.8 | Introduce | whatever variations appeal to you, but keep the exercises focused on |
| W1:39.6 | yourself. Then with closed eyes search out your unloving thoughts in | whatever form they appear—uneasiness, depression, anger, fear, |
| W1:39.6 | depression, anger, fear, worry, attack, insecurity, and so on. | Whatever form they take, they are unloving and therefore fearful. And |
| W1:39.11 | should feel free to introduce variety into your practice periods in | whatever form appeals to you. Do not, however, change the idea itself |
| W1:42.2 | you can receive it any time and anywhere, wherever you are and in | whatever circumstances you find yourself. Your passage through time |
| W1:43.3 | You cannot see apart from God because you cannot be apart from God. | Whatever you do, you do in Him because whatever you think, you think |
| W1:43.3 | you cannot be apart from God. Whatever you do, you do in Him because | whatever you think, you think with His Mind. If vision is real, and |
| W1:43.8 | period, close your eyes, repeat today's idea again, and then let | whatever relevant thoughts occur to you add to the idea in your own |
| W1:44.6 | from time to time that to reach light is to escape from darkness, | whatever you may believe to the contrary. God is the Light in which |
| W1:50.3 | eternal, changeless and forever unfailing. This is the answer to | whatever confronts you today. Through the Love of God in you, you can |

| W1:70.13 | walk on into the light of real salvation. Try to pass the clouds by | whatever means appeals to you. If it helps you, think of me holding |
| W1:R2.3 | intent to waver in the face of distracting thoughts. Realize that, | whatever form such thoughts may take, they have no meaning and no |
| W1:93.7 | thought—you are as God created you, not what you made of yourself. | Whatever evil you may think you did, you are as God created you. |
| W1:93.7 | Whatever evil you may think you did, you are as God created you. | Whatever mistakes you made, the truth about you is unchanged. |
| W1:R3.4 | periods which you have lost because you did not want to do them for | whatever reason should be done as soon as you have changed your mind |
| W1:129.11 | hourly, and take a moment to confirm your choice by laying by | whatever thoughts you have, and dwelling briefly only upon this: |
| W1:130.12 | that hell would show to you. All you need say to any part of hell, | whatever form it takes, is simply this: |
| W1:136.6 | which is not there. It is this process which imposes threat, and not | whatever outcome may result. |
| W1:140.10 | amulets, our charms and medicines, our chants and bits of magic in | whatever form they took. We will be still and listen for the Voice of |

| W2:248.1 | disowned the truth. Now let me be as faithful in disowning falsity. | Whatever suffers is not part of me. What grieves is not myself. What |
| W2:WIB.5 | You will identify with what you think will make you safe. | Whatever it may be, you will believe that it is one with you. Your |
| W2:E.1 | you. You are not alone. No one who calls on Him can call in vain. | Whatever troubles you, be certain that He has the answer and will |
| M:16.5 | sleep. It is not wise to lie down for it. It is better to sit up, in | whatever position you prefer. Having gone through the workbook you |

| Tx:9.78 | at the logical conclusion of the ego's thought system and judge | whether its offering is really what you want, for this is what it |
| Tx:10.22 | He cannot help you without your invitation, and the ego is nothing | whether you invite it in or not. Real freedom depends on welcoming |
| Tx:10.63 | he worships over him. For he places himself at the altar of his god, | whether it be the god he made or the God who created him. That is why |
| Tx:11.40 | you are not at home in this world. And you will search for your home | whether you know where it is or not. If you believe it is outside |
| Tx:11.67 | before that what you project is up to you, but it is not up to you | whether to project, for projection is a law of mind. Perception is |
| Tx:13.69 | you attack keeps it and cherishes it by holding it against you. | Whether he does this or does it not will make no difference; you will |
| Tx:13.75 | He offers you but what God gave Him for you. You need not decide | whether or not you are deserving of it. God knows you are. |
| Tx:13.91 | have decided against your function in Heaven and consider carefully | whether you want to make decisions here. Your function here is only |
| Tx:13.92 | tell you and then do it for you. You who are tired might consider | whether this is not more restful than sleep. For you can bring your |
| Tx:15.19 | Spirit. And they support His strength. It is, therefore, your choice | whether they support the ego or the Holy Spirit in you. And you will |
| Tx:16.57 | and complete escape from all its consequences. The decision | whether or not to listen to this course and follow it is but the |
| Tx:17.59 | bring the means in line. And now the only judgment left to make is | whether or not the ego likes it—is it acceptable, or does it call |
| Tx:18.61 | above all, the lack of awareness of the body and of the questioning | whether or not all this is possible. |
| Tx:19.99 | end before you, you see its purpose. And it is here you choose | whether to look upon it or wander on, only to return and make the |
| Tx:20.25 | groped but feebly in the dust and found each other's hand, uncertain | whether to let it go or to take hold on life so long forgotten. |
| Tx:20.74 | is no longer held, they disappear. Therefore, the question never is | whether you want them, but always, do you want the purpose which they |
| Tx:21.5 | and not forget. It is not this you would deny. Your question is | whether the means by which this course is learned will bring to you |
| Tx:21.77 | the choice of truth or sin, power or helplessness, is the choice of | whether to attack or heal. For healing comes of power and attack of |
| Tx:21.77 | be protected from attack. And what is this decision but the choice | whether to see him through the body's eyes or let him be revealed to |
| Tx:22.63 | The only question to be answered to decide which must be true is | whether you are different. From the position of what you understand, |
| Tx:23.24 | for His belief. His Son can tell Him this, and He has but the choice | whether to take his word for it or be mistaken. This leads directly |
| Tx:23.40 | any instant it is possible to have all this undone. How can you know | whether you chose the stairs to Heaven or the way to hell? Quite |
| Tx:24.38 | is attained nor how to reach it. But do consider, and consider well, | whether it is your wish that you might see your brother sinless. To |
| Tx:26.13 | so He takes the thorns and nails away. He does not pause to judge | whether the hurt be large or little. He makes but one judgment—that |
| Tx:26.30 | will another road be made except the way to Heaven. You but choose | whether to go toward Heaven or away to nowhere. There is nothing else |
| Tx:29.28 | like the dream. If it should fail, you think the dream is sad. But | whether it succeeds or fails is not its core but just the flimsy |
| Tx:30.46 | lifted up, and anchored sure. Its perfect purity does not depend on | whether it is seen on earth or not. The sky embraces it and softly |
| Tx:31.79 | with love or look with hate, depending only on the simple choice of | whether you would join with what you see or keep yourself apart and |
| W1:7.9 | to the cup, too, based on past experiences? How else would you know | whether or not this kind of cup will break if you drop it? What do |
| W1:28.1 | you will be making a series of definite commitments. The question of | whether you will keep them in the future is not our concern here. If |
| W1:49.1 | mind in which truth abides is in constant communication with God, | whether you are aware of it or not. It is the other part of your mind |
| W1:52.5 | that I see nothing. I can see only what is now. The choice is not | whether to see the past or the present: it is whether to see or not. |
| W1:52.5 | now. The choice is not whether to see the past or the present: it is | whether to see or not. What I have chosen to see has cost me vision. |
| W1:64.5 | There is no other way. Therefore every time you choose | whether or not to fulfill your function, you are really choosing |
| W1:64.5 | whether or not to fulfill your function, you are really choosing | whether to be happy or not. Let us remember this today. Let us remind |
| W1:66.12 | great honesty today. Remember the outcomes fairly and consider also | whether it was ever reasonable to expect happiness from anything the |
| W1:67.6 | that you will do much today to bring that awareness nearer, | whether you feel you have succeeded or not. |
| M:I.2 | your demonstration, others learn and so do you. The question is not | whether you will teach, for in that there is no choice. The purpose |
| M:4.6 | are always helpful, he must now decide all things on the basis of | whether they increase the helpfulness or hamper it. He will find that |
| M:8.3 | so only the mind is responsible for seeing. It alone decides | whether what is seen is real or illusory, desirable or undesirable, |
| M:11.2 | Again we come to the question of judgment. This time, ask yourself | whether your judgment or the Word of God is more likely to be true. |
| M:22.2 | The progress of the teacher of God may be slow or rapid, depending on | whether he recognizes the Atonement's inclusiveness or for a time |
| M:23.3 | he say about this? Remember his promises, and ask yourself honestly | whether it is likely that he will fail to keep them. Can God fail His |

| Tx:1.59 | anything, their perception becomes distorted. When this occurs, the | whole family of God, or the Sonship, is impaired in its |

| Tx:1.74 | should be Christ-controlled because of His complete awareness of the | whole plan. The impersonal nature of miracle-mindedness ensures your |
| Tx:2.41 | is finished, its various phases will proceed in time, but the | whole Atonement stands at time's end. At this point, the bridge of |
| Tx:2.54 | All physical illness represents a belief in magic. The | whole distortion which created magic rests on the belief that there |
| Tx:2.59 | the highest level of communication of which he is capable now. The | whole aim of the miracle is to raise the level of communication, not |
| Tx:2.71 | the suffering of both. This introduces a correction into the | whole record which corrects retroactively as well as progressively. |
| Tx:2.82 | arises from behavior-will conflict could not have arisen. Then the | whole process is nothing more than a series of pragmatic steps in the |
| Tx:2.96 | your mind, it is unmindful. It is time, however, to consider the | whole world of the unconscious or “unwatched” mind. This may well |
| Tx:2.96 | it is the source of fear. The unwatched mind is responsible for the | whole content of the unconscious which lies above the miracle level. |
| Tx:2.101 | are His Sons, then every Soul must be an integral part of the | whole Sonship. You do not find the concept that the whole is greater |
| Tx:2.101 | part of the whole Sonship. You do not find the concept that the | whole is greater than its parts difficult to understand. You should |
| Tx:3.13 | the truth. It is unwise to accept any concept if you have to turn a | whole frame of reference around in order to justify it. This |
| Tx:3.31 | involves different interpretations, and this means that it is not | whole. The miracle is a way of perceiving, not of knowing. It is the |
| Tx:3.45 | itself from the Soul because it is from the Soul that it derives its | whole power to create. Even in miscreation will is affirming its |
| Tx:3.74 | This makes absolutely no sense. The | whole picture is one in which man acts in a way he himself realizes |
| Tx:4.31 | egos because it cannot establish the reality of itself. In fact, its | whole perception of other egos as real is only an attempt to convince |
| Tx:4.41 | Creator create, and what else but you is His Kingdom? This is the | whole message of the Atonement, a message which in its totality |
| Tx:4.81 | while accurate perception is a stepping-stone towards it. The | whole value of right perception lies in the inevitable judgment which |
| Tx:4.83 | and if you associate yourself with the ego, you do not perceive the | whole situation as it is. Only your allegiance to it gives the ego |
| Tx:4.86 | be used here because as you learn how much you are indebted to the | whole Sonship, which includes me, you come as close to knowledge as |
| Tx:4.89 | accord with His. I have told you before that I am in charge of the | whole Atonement. This is only because I completed my part in it as a |
| Tx:4.95 | Everything the ego perceives is a separate | whole, without the relationships that imply being. The ego is thus |
| Tx:4.101 | but He cannot share His joy with you until you know it with your | whole mind. Even revelation is not enough because it is communication |
| Tx:5.2 | to be wholly fearful and remain alive, then the only possible | whole state is that of love. There is no difference between love and |
| Tx:5.2 | is no difference between love and joy. Therefore, the only possible | whole state is the wholly joyous. To heal or to make joyous is |
| Tx:5.6 | If you can accept the concept that the world is one of ideas, the | whole belief in the false association which the ego makes between |
| Tx:5.18 | separation, the means by which the Atonement could repair until the | whole mind returned to creating. |
| Tx:5.20 | of the integrity of the mind. When the Atonement is complete and the | whole Sonship is healed, there will be no call to return, but what |
| Tx:5.25 | “What profiteth it a man if he gain the | whole world and lose his own Soul?” That means that if he listens to |
| Tx:5.28 | than to restore it to the perfect integration that can make it | whole? |
| Tx:5.29 | stronger. As we share this goal we increase its power to attract the | whole Sonship and to bring it back into the Oneness in which it was |
| Tx:5.60 | is unassailable. It is invulnerable to disruption because it is | whole. Guilt is always disruptive. Anything that engenders fear is |
| Tx:5.78 | have given to the ego will merely return to the Kingdom, where your | whole mind belongs. The ego is a form of arrest, but arrest is merely |
| Tx:5.91 | have not moved mountains by their faith, because their faith was not | whole. Some of them have healed the sick at times, but they have not |
| Tx:5.91 | God created is equally worthy of being healed because God created it | whole. You are merely asked to return to God the mind as He created |
| Tx:6.20 | glaring examples of upside-down thinking in the New Testament, whose | whole gospel is only the message of love. These are not like the |
| Tx:6.21 | thou the Son of Man with a kiss?” unless I believed in betrayal. The | whole message of the crucifixion was simply that I did not. The |
| Tx:6.25 | of God, which is His peace, cannot be appreciated except by a | whole mind which recognizes the wholeness of God's creation and by |
| Tx:6.34 | only for this because he speaks for God. He tells you to return your | whole mind to God, because it has never left Him. If it has never |
| Tx:6.37 | He looks He sees Himself, and because He is united, He offers the | whole Kingdom always. This is the one message God gave to Him and for |
| Tx:6.45 | you. Herein lies its primary perceptual error, the foundation of its | whole thought system. |
| Tx:6.57 | you that you had made a split mind, when He knows your mind only as | whole? What God does know is that His communication channels are not |
| Tx:6.82 | you must be critical, since your salvation is critical to the | whole Sonship. We said before that the Holy Spirit is evaluative and |
| Tx:6.89 | created it. Therefore, you are accepting it as it is. Since it is | whole, you are teaching peace because you believe in it. The final |
| Tx:6.92 | to is measurable. On the contrary, unless it transfers to the | whole Sonship, which is immeasurable because it was created by the |
| Tx:6.92 | Immeasurable, the learning itself must be incomplete. To teach the | whole Sonship without exception demonstrates that you perceive its |
| Tx:7.6 | you that your joy may be complete, because the Kingdom of God is | whole. We have said that the last step in the reawakening of |
| Tx:7.9 | a brother perceives himself as sick, he is perceiving himself as not | whole and therefore in need. If you too see him this way, you are |
| Tx:7.15 | form of what he translates, never changes the meaning. In fact, his | whole purpose is to change the form so that the original meaning is |
| Tx:7.33 | not come directly from God, Who knows His creations as perfectly | whole. Yet healing is [nevertheless] of God, because it proceeds from |
| Tx:7.35 | He can use them only for healing, because He knows you only as | whole. By healing you learn of wholeness, and by learning of |
| Tx:7.44 | only consistence is conflict-free, and only the conflict-free are | whole. By accepting exceptions and acknowledging that he can |
| Tx:7.46 | yours. Your meaning cannot be out of accord with His because your | whole meaning, and your only meaning, comes from His and is like His. |
| Tx:7.50 | by your creations, which can only be created as you were. The | whole glory and perfect joy that is the Kingdom lies in you to give. |
| Tx:7.53 | This light will shine back upon you and on the | whole Sonship, because this is your proper gift to God. He will |
| Tx:7.73 | lasts. And perception will last until the Sonship knows itself as | whole. |
| Tx:7.87 | that it can, a fallacy which the ego always makes, underlies its | whole use of projection. It does not understand what mind is and |
| Tx:7.88 | their effects will vanish from your minds and from the Sonship as a | whole. |
| Tx:7.90 | The | whole purpose of this course is to teach you that the ego is |
| Tx:7.90 | idea of separation and affirming your true identification with the | whole Kingdom as literally part of you. This identification is as |
| Tx:7.92 | is included in its own, as it is included in God. The power of the | whole Sonship and of its Creator is therefore the Soul's own |
| Tx:7.92 | therefore the Soul's own fullness, rendering its creations equally | whole and equal in perfection. The ego cannot prevail against a |
| Tx:7.93 | can the fullness of its Creator. Fullness is extension. The ego's | whole thought system blocks extension and thus blocks your only |
| Tx:7.94 | Exclude any part of the Kingdom from yourself, and you are not | whole. A split mind cannot perceive its fullness and needs the |
| Tx:7.95 | creation belongs to everyone, being created for the Sonship as a | whole. |
| Tx:7.96 | radiance is so intense that it creates in perfect joy, and only the | whole can be born of its wholeness. |
| Tx:7.97 | including any part of totality in the lesson, you have included the | whole. You have said that when you write of the Kingdom and your |
| Tx:7.97 | in a sense, but no more true than your failure to acknowledge the | whole result of the ego's premises. The Kingdom is the result of |
| Tx:7.98 | you could possibly want any part of it is because you do not see the | whole of it. You [therefore] are willing to look at the ego's |
| Tx:7.101 | be confused about joy and pain. This confusion is the cause of the | whole idea of sacrifice. Obey the Holy Spirit, and you will be giving |
| Tx:7.105 | with me is not really open to choice, though it may seem to be. The | whole separation lies in this fallacy. The only way out of the |
| Tx:7.112 | brothers, who created them with you. We said before that only the | whole Sonship is worthy to be co-creator with God, because only the |
| Tx:7.112 | whole Sonship is worthy to be co-creator with God, because only the | whole Sonship can create like Him. Whenever you heal a brother by |
| Tx:8.31 | to unite must be unequivocal, or the will itself is divided or not | whole. Your will is the means by which you determine your own |
| Tx:8.37 | Yet to heal is still to make | whole. Therefore, to heal is to unite with those who are like you, |
| Tx:8.49 | because apart from each other we cannot function at all. The | whole power of God's Son lies in all of us, but not in any of us |
| Tx:8.61 | In the world, not even the body is perceived as | whole. Its purpose is seen as fragmented into many functions which |
| Tx:8.62 | solely for communication. Since this is natural, it heals by making | whole, which is also natural. All mind is whole, and the belief that |
| Tx:8.62 | it heals by making whole, which is also natural. All mind is | whole, and the belief that part of it is physical, or not mind, is a |
| Tx:8.65 | the body is brought under the purpose of the mind, the body becomes | whole, because the mind's purpose is one. Attack can only be an |
| Tx:8.66 | this limit on yourself. Are you willing to accept this, when your | whole purpose for learning should be to escape from limitations? To |
| Tx:8.70 | they arise from it, but the relationship is not reciprocal. The | whole does define the part, but the part does not define the whole. |
| Tx:8.70 | The whole does define the part, but the part does not define the | whole. This is as true of knowledge as it is of perception. The |
| Tx:8.70 | difference between knowledge and perception. In perception the | whole is built up of parts, which can separate and reassemble in |
| Tx:8.70 | in which change is possible. There is no difference between the | whole and the part where change is impossible. |
| Tx:8.81 | because it is so powerful that your little part will bring the | whole to you. Accept then your little part, and let the whole be |
| Tx:8.81 | bring the whole to you. Accept then your little part, and let the | whole be yours. |
| Tx:8.87 | do the works of love, because we share this oneness. Our minds are | whole because they are one. If you are sick you are withdrawing from |
| Tx:8.94 | The only source of fear in this | whole process can only be what you think you lose. Yet it is only |
| Tx:9.16 | question, ridiculous as it seems, is really the crucial issue in the | whole separation fantasy. Anyone who elects a totally insane guide |
| Tx:9.34 | Each part you remember adds to your wholeness, because each part is | whole. Wholeness is indivisible, but you cannot learn of your |
| Tx:9.43 | is meaningless within the ego's thought system, because it opens the | whole thought system to question. |
| Tx:9.44 | littleness, therefore, is to deny all knowledge and keep the ego's | whole thought system intact. You cannot retain part of a thought |
| Tx:9.80 | you. I know your value for you, and it is this value that makes you | whole. A whole mind is not idolatrous and does not know of |
| Tx:9.80 | your value for you, and it is this value that makes you whole. A | whole mind is not idolatrous and does not know of conflicting laws. I |
| Tx:9.80 | only one message, and it is true. Your faith in it will make you | whole when you have faith in me. |
| Tx:9.86 | illusions because truth and illusions are irreconcilable. Truth is | whole and cannot be known by part of a mind. |
| Tx:10.2 | system. And either the ego, which you made, is your father, or its | whole thought system will not stand. |
| Tx:10.14 | God's Will because you believe it is not yours. This belief is your | whole sickness and your whole fear. Every symptom of sickness and |
| Tx:10.14 | believe it is not yours. This belief is your whole sickness and your | whole fear. Every symptom of sickness and fear arises here because |
| Tx:10.19 | Healing is a sign that he wants to make | whole. And this willingness opens his own ears to the Voice of the |
| Tx:10.19 | you would undertake, for beside your small willingness to make | whole, He will lay His own complete will and make yours whole. What |
| Tx:10.19 | to make whole, He will lay His own complete will and make yours | whole. What can the Son of God not accomplish with the Fatherhood of |
| Tx:10.30 | you cannot enter. For you cannot understand Wholeness unless you are | whole, and no part of the Son can be excluded if he would know the |
| Tx:10.30 | know the Wholeness of his Father. In your mind, you can accept the | whole Sonship and bless it with the light your Father gave it. Then |
| Tx:10.38 | Father or the Son. Peace be unto you who rest in God and in whom the | whole Sonship rests. |
| Tx:10.41 | meaningless. “Dynamics” implies the power to do something, and the | whole separation fallacy lies in the belief that the ego has the |
| Tx:10.45 | Yours is the independence of creation, not of autonomy. Your | whole creative function lies in your complete dependence on God, |
| Tx:10.64 | compel your allegiance gladly because it is the symbol of joy. Its | whole compelling power lies in the fact that it represents what you |
| Tx:10.68 | Sons are of equal value, and their equality is their oneness. The | whole power of God is in every part of Him, and nothing contradictory |
| Tx:11.2 | and never without the risk of your own ego-involvement. The | whole process represents a clear-cut attempt to demonstrate your own |
| Tx:11.16 | Whatever the sickness, there is but one remedy. You will be made | whole as you make whole, for to perceive in sickness the appeal for |
| Tx:11.16 | there is but one remedy. You will be made whole as you make | whole, for to perceive in sickness the appeal for health is to |
| Tx:11.41 | sold. There can be no disinherited parts of the Sonship, for God is | whole, and all His extensions are like Him. |
| Tx:11.51 | and teachers. But it is not so yet and will not be so until the | whole learning situation as you have set it up is reversed. |
| Tx:11.53 | The ego is trying to teach you how to gain the | whole world and lose your own Soul. The Holy Spirit teaches that you |
| Tx:11.61 | gain the real world. For in this holy perception, you will be made | whole, and the Atonement will radiate from your acceptance of it for |
| Tx:12.13 | your joyous response to the call of love if you heard it, and the | whole world you think you control would vanish. The Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:12.14 | You have built your | whole insane belief system because you think you would be helpless in |
| Tx:12.34 | Therefore he does not see that he made them and that they are not | whole. For these figures have no witnesses, being perceived in one |
| Tx:12.52 | Son is only light. There is no darkness in him anywhere, for he is | whole. Call all your brothers to witness to his wholeness, as I am |
| Tx:13.2 | this: There is nothing partial about knowledge. Every aspect is | whole, and therefore no aspect is separate. You are an aspect of |
| Tx:13.5 | to the Son of God is but the true perception of one aspect of the | whole. Though every aspect is the whole, you cannot know this until |
| Tx:13.5 | perception of one aspect of the whole. Though every aspect is the | whole, you cannot know this until you see that every aspect is the |
| Tx:13.12 | Release from guilt is the ego's | whole undoing. Make no one fearful, for his guilt is yours, and by |
| Tx:13.65 | want either alone, for without both, you do not see yourselves as | whole and therefore happy. Yet you are whole only in your |
| Tx:13.65 | you do not see yourselves as whole and therefore happy. Yet you are | whole only in your guiltlessness, and only in your guiltlessness can |
| Tx:13.73 | separate or isolated in its effects. Every decision is made for the | whole Sonship, directed in and out and influencing a constellation |
| Tx:15.12 | give Him this than for Him to use this tiny instant to offer you the | whole of Heaven. In exchange for this instant, He stands ready to |
| Tx:15.15 | to the Holy Spirit to use. He needs but very little to restore God's | whole power to you. He Who transcends time for you understands what |
| Tx:15.16 | your past learning, and the Holy Spirit will quickly offer you the | whole lesson of peace. What can take time, when all the obstacles to |
| Tx:15.35 | it into glad awareness while you do not want it, for it holds the | whole release from littleness. |
| Tx:15.64 | in the holy instant because the past is gone and with it goes the | whole basis for exclusion. Without its source, exclusion vanishes. |
| Tx:15.101 | Fear not to recognize the | whole idea of sacrifice as solely of your making. And seek not safety |
| Tx:15.102 | of any kind of anyone is asked by Him. In His Presence, the | whole idea of sacrifice loses all meaning. For He is Host to God. And |
| Tx:16.9 | What you give through Him is for the | whole Sonship, not for part of it. Leave Him His function, for He |
| Tx:16.10 | itself? One attribute is no more difficult to understand than is the | whole. If miracles are at all, their attributes would have to be |
| Tx:16.11 | then to be concerned about the truth of just a little part of the | whole. And this is but a way of avoiding or looking away from the |
| Tx:16.11 | whole. And this is but a way of avoiding or looking away from the | whole to what you think you might be better able to understand. For |
| Tx:16.11 | of miracles is this: You do not understand them, either in part or | whole. Yet you have done them. Therefore, your understanding cannot |
| Tx:16.12 | about it, you cannot understand it. The recognition of the part as | whole and of the whole in every part is perfectly natural. For it is |
| Tx:16.12 | understand it. The recognition of the part as whole and of the | whole in every part is perfectly natural. For it is the way God |
| Tx:16.37 | love relationship is but a shabby substitute for what makes you | whole in truth, not in illusion. Your relationship with them is |
| Tx:16.40 | and therefore wholly without fear. Whom God remembers must be | whole. And God has never forgotten what makes Him whole. In your |
| Tx:16.40 | remembers must be whole. And God has never forgotten what makes Him | whole. In your completion lies the memory of His wholeness and His |
| Tx:16.52 | the sadness and the loneliness. For these are only attributes of the | whole religion of the separation and of the total context in which it |
| Tx:16.57 | meaning. Separation is only the decision not to know yourself. Its | whole thought system is a carefully contrived learning experience |
| Tx:16.61 | body would disappear because its value would be lost. And so your | whole investment in seeing it would be withdrawn from it. You see the |
| Tx:16.62 | special relationship which the ego seeks does not include even one | whole individual. For the ego wants but part of him and sees only |
| Tx:17.3 | If you but realized what this must do to your appreciation of the | whole! What you reserve unto yourself, you take away from Him Who |
| Tx:17.30 | The | whole defense system which the ego evolved to protect the separation |
| Tx:17.31 | is not insane. And its “protection” is part of it, as insane as the | whole. The special relationship, which is its chief defense, must |
| Tx:17.32 | one is not different. Retain this one, and you have retained the | whole. |
| Tx:17.35 | aspects of this thought system, for these aspects enclose the | whole, complete in every aspect. Death lies in this glittering gift. |
| Tx:17.36 | destruction. And your defense must now be undertaken to keep truth | whole. The power of Heaven, the love of God, the tears of Christ, and |
| Tx:17.37 | the frame, the picture is seen as what it represents. For as the | whole thought system of the ego lies in its gifts, so the whole of |
| Tx:17.37 | For as the whole thought system of the ego lies in its gifts, so the | whole of Heaven lies in this instant, borrowed from eternity and set |
| Tx:17.41 | fades gently, and God rises to your remembrance, offering you the | whole of creation in exchange for your little picture, wholly without |
| Tx:17.42 | What He has given is His. It shines in every part of Him as in the | whole. The whole reality of your relationship with Him lies in our |
| Tx:17.42 | given is His. It shines in every part of Him as in the whole. The | whole reality of your relationship with Him lies in our relationship |
| Tx:17.47 | in purpose could induce a complete change of mind about what the | whole relationship is for. As this change develops and is finally |
| Tx:17.62 | is set, there faith must be. The Holy Spirit sees the situation as a | whole. The goal establishes the fact that everyone involved in it |
| Tx:17.62 | through fragmentation and does not perceive the situation as a | whole. Therefore, it seeks to split off segments of the situation and |
| Tx:17.71 | calls to everyone. There is no situation which does not involve your | whole relationship in every aspect and complete in every part. You |
| Tx:17.71 | it and keep the situation holy. For it shares the purpose of your | whole relationship and derives its meaning from it. |
| Tx:17.74 | of the meaning of every relationship and every situation, seen as a | whole. Faith has accepted every aspect of the situation, and |
| Tx:18.4 | infinity to time, and life to death, was all you ever made. Your | whole world rests upon it. Everything you see reflects it, and every |
| Tx:18.11 | the Sonship through your relationship, for in it lies the Sonship, | whole and beautiful, safe in your love. Heaven has entered quietly, |
| Tx:18.11 | shined upon you, blessing your relationship with truth. God and His | whole creation have entered it together. How lovely and how holy is |
| Tx:18.12 | would you not prefer to heal what has been broken and join in making | whole what has been ravaged by separation and disease? |
| Tx:18.30 | darkness from the holy instant to which you brought it. We are made | whole in our desire to make whole. Let not time worry you, for all |
| Tx:18.30 | to which you brought it. We are made whole in our desire to make | whole. Let not time worry you, for all the fear that you experience |
| Tx:18.40 | is possible and remain unwilling to give place to One Who knows. The | whole belief in orders of difficulty in miracles is centered on this. |
| Tx:18.59 | it. It becomes part of you as you unite with it. And both become | whole as neither is perceived as separate. What really happens is |
| Tx:18.65 | and nothing else and would be avoided. It has no attraction now. Its | whole attraction is imaginary and therefore must be thought of in the |
| Tx:18.72 | small, around a very little segment of Heaven splintered from the | whole, proclaiming that within it is your kingdom, where God can |
| Tx:18.73 | mind is such a tiny part of it that, could you but appreciate the | whole, you would see instantly that it is like the smallest sunbeam |
| Tx:18.74 | is in no way changes its total dependence on them for its being. Its | whole existence still remains in them. Without the sun the sunbeam |
| Tx:18.75 | dependent on their one Creator for everything and needing the | whole to give them any meaning, for by themselves they do mean |
| Tx:18.76 | not missing; it could not exist if it were separate, nor would the | whole be whole without it. It is not a separate kingdom, ruled by an |
| Tx:18.76 | it could not exist if it were separate, nor would the whole be | whole without it. It is not a separate kingdom, ruled by an idea of |
| Tx:18.76 | apart from its Creator. This little aspect is no different from the | whole, being continuous with it and at one with it. It leads no |
| Tx:18.77 | Arched high above it and surrounding it with love is the glorious | whole, which offers all its happiness and deep content to every part. |
| Tx:18.81 | hide from Heaven straight into Heaven. No part of love calls on the | whole in vain. No Son of God remains outside His Fatherhood. |
| Tx:18.84 | needs help because in its delusions it thinks it is the Son of God, | whole and omnipotent, sole ruler of the kingdom it set apart to |
| Tx:18.88 | of fear lies just below the level the body sees and seems to be the | whole foundation on which the world is based. Here are all the |
| Tx:18.91 | Yet in this cloud bank, it is easy to see a | whole world rising. A solid mountain range, a lake, a city, all rise |
| Tx:19.1 | for only thus the situation is perceived as meaningful and as a | whole. And everyone must be involved in it, or else your faith is |
| Tx:19.2 | a united purpose which makes this purpose real because you make it | whole. And this is healing. The body is healed because you came |
| Tx:19.5 | always limit and attack; faith would remove all limitations and make | whole. [Faithlessness would destroy and separate; faith would unite |
| Tx:19.19 | such is its purpose. Yet for all the wild insanity inherent in the | whole idea of sin, it is impossible. For the wages of sin is death, |
| Tx:19.24 | a mistake, entirely correctable, and so easily escaped from that its | whole correction is like walking through a mist into the sun? For |
| Tx:19.40 | can it abide within the Son of God? If it would spread across the | whole creation, it must begin with you and from you reach to everyone |
| Tx:19.42 | by a little. And that little is a limit you would place upon the | whole. God's Will is One, not many. It has no opposition, for there |
| Tx:19.68 | Your little part is but to give the Holy Spirit the | whole idea of sacrifice. And to accept the peace He gave instead, |
| Tx:19.72 | guilt, serving its master whose attraction to guilt maintains the | whole illusion of its existence. This, then, is the attraction of |
| Tx:20.1 | forgiveness of himself; the sign he looks upon himself as healed and | whole. |
| Tx:20.3 | mine. A week is short, and yet this holy week is the symbol of the | whole journey the Son of God has undertaken. He started with the sign |
| Tx:20.8 | For he who offers thorns to anyone is against me still, and who is | whole without him? Be you his friend for me that I may be forgiven |
| Tx:20.8 | me that I may be forgiven and you may look upon the Son of God as | whole. But look you first upon the altar in your chosen home and see |
| Tx:20.33 | part lies all of it, without which is no part complete, nor is the | whole completed without your part. The ark of peace is entered two by |
| Tx:20.34 | your forgiveness of each other serves but you two alone. For the | whole new world rests in the hands of every two who enter here to |
| Tx:20.67 | would not be necessary had judgment not been made. Desire now its | whole undoing, and it is done for you. |
| Tx:21.8 | circumstances in which you heard completely unremembered. Not the | whole song has stayed with you, but just a little wisp of melody, |
| Tx:21.13 | this course. It is the same small willingness you need to have your | whole relationship transformed to joy; the little gift you offer to |
| Tx:21.20 | Look closer, then, at what it is. And very simply see in it the | whole exchange of separation for salvation. All that the ego is, is |
| Tx:21.28 | together and as one. See what “proves” otherwise, and you deny your | whole reality. But grant that everything which seems to stand between |
| Tx:21.43 | the ego never asks. And you who ask it now are threatening the ego's | whole defensive system too seriously for it to bother to pretend it |
| Tx:21.49 | to hear and on the sights you choose to see, depends entirely your | whole belief in what you are. Perception is a witness but to this and |
| Tx:21.52 | You do not realize the | whole extent to which the idea of separation has interfered with |
| Tx:21.65 | he sees himself. And reason tells you it is given you to change his | whole mind, which is one with you, in just an instant. And any |
| Tx:21.65 | serves to bring complete correction of his errors and make him | whole. The instant that you choose to let yourself be healed, in that |
| Tx:21.65 | you choose to let yourself be healed, in that same instant is his | whole salvation seen as complete with yours. Reason is given you to |
| Tx:22.3 | his completion, he would extend it by joining with another, | whole as himself. He sees no difference between these selves, for |
| Tx:22.10 | is your language. You do not understand it yet, only because your | whole communication is like a baby's. The sounds a baby makes and |
| Tx:22.24 | Let us look closer at the | whole illusion that what you made has power to enslave its maker. |
| Tx:22.30 | The ego's | whole continuance depends on its belief you cannot learn this course. |
| Tx:22.32 | is a mistake, an error in perception, a distorted fragment of the | whole, without the meaning that the whole would give. And yet |
| Tx:22.32 | a distorted fragment of the whole, without the meaning that the | whole would give. And yet mistakes, regardless of their form, can be |
| Tx:22.38 | way you went before you reached the branch, you will go nowhere. The | whole purpose of coming this far was to decide which branch you will |
| Tx:22.46 | you and its return. Yet how can peace be so fragmented? It is still | whole, and nothing has been taken from it. |
| Tx:22.62 | would it be possible to attack a part of the creation without the | whole, the Son without the Father, and to attack another without |
| Tx:23.39 | step is smaller than another nor that return from one is easier. The | whole descent from Heaven lies in each one. And where your thinking |
| Tx:24.19 | to have it. Let him forgive you all your specialness and make you | whole in mind and one with him. He waits for your forgiveness only |
| Tx:24.41 | out of nothing. For the parts do not belong together, and the | whole contributes nothing to the parts to give them meaning. |
| Tx:24.50 | There could be no universe and no reality. For what God wills is | whole and part of Him because His Will is One. Nothing alive that is |
| Tx:24.53 | Look on your brother and behold in him the | whole reversal of the laws that seem to rule this world. See in his |
| Tx:24.69 | seem to be a means. And it is this that makes it hard to grasp the | whole extent to which it must depend on what you see it for. |
| Tx:25.4 | of His holiness, which meet and join and raise Him to His Father, | whole and pure and worthy of His everlasting Love. |
| Tx:25.37 | The state of sinlessness is merely this: the | whole desire to attack is gone, and so there is no reason to perceive |
| Tx:25.54 | The Holy Spirit has the power to change the | whole foundation of the world you see to something else—a basis not |
| Tx:25.60 | The | whole belief that someone loses but reflects the underlying tenet God |
| Tx:25.61 | special function has a part. For here your special function is made | whole because it shares the function of the whole. |
| Tx:25.61 | special function is made whole because it shares the function of the | whole. |
| Tx:26.11 | bring to truth than is another. For there is but one mistake—the | whole idea that loss is possible and could result in gain for anyone. |
| Tx:26.27 | here is what was lost restored to them and all their radiance made | whole again. |
| Tx:26.61 | any kind. A tiny sacrifice is just the same in its effects as is the | whole idea of sacrifice. If loss in any form is possible, then is |
| Tx:26.89 | innocent. And in this game do you perceive one purpose for your | whole relationship. And this you seek to add unto the purpose given |
| Tx:27.1 | sacrifice is total. If it could occur at all, it would entail the | whole of God's creation and the Father with the sacrifice of his |
| Tx:28.26 | or effect of what it made. Yet half the lesson will not teach the | whole. The miracle is useless if you learn but that the body can be |
| Tx:28.44 | it is a picture in itself. To each he offers his identity, which the | whole picture represents, instead of just a little broken bit which |
| Tx:28.45 | Son! The forms the broken pieces seem to take mean nothing. For the | whole is in each one. And every aspect of the Son of God is just the |
| Tx:29.31 | There is a place in you where this | whole world has been forgotten, where no memory of sin and of |
| Tx:29.33 | It tell you what his function is. He was created that you might be | whole, for only the complete can be a part of God's completion, Which |
| Tx:29.46 | renounced. Seek not outside yourself. The search implies you are not | whole within and fear to look upon your devastation and prefer to |
| Tx:29.47 | a form of death cannot be life, and what is sacrificed cannot be | whole. |
| Tx:30.40 | so. For sin is the idea you are alone and separated off from what is | whole. And thus it would be necessary for the search for wholeness to |
| Tx:30.42 | all idols stands his holy will to be but what he is. For more than | whole is meaningless. If there were change in him, if he could be |
| Tx:30.42 | need to be himself? For can he give a part of him away? What is not | whole cannot make whole. But what is really asked for cannot be |
| Tx:30.42 | For can he give a part of him away? What is not whole cannot make | whole. But what is really asked for cannot be denied. Your will is |
| Tx:30.42 | is granted. Not in any form that would content you not, but in the | whole completely lovely Thought God holds of you. |
| Tx:30.76 | Son entirely. Or you will keep an image of yourself that is not | whole and will remain afraid to look within and find escape from |
| Tx:30.77 | him outside your willingness that he be healed. To heal is to make | whole. And what is whole can have no missing parts that have been |
| Tx:30.77 | willingness that he be healed. To heal is to make whole. And what is | whole can have no missing parts that have been kept outside. |
| Tx:30.93 | some respects. For this but means you would not have him healed and | whole. The Christ in him is perfect. Is it this that you would look |
| Tx:31.8 | you. The soft, eternal calling of each part of God's creation to the | whole is heard throughout the world this second lesson brings. |
| Tx:31.9 | no living thing which does not share the universal will that it be | whole and that you do not leave its call unheard. Without your answer |
| W1:16.2 | than that of “idle thoughts.” What gives rise to the perception of a | whole world can hardly be called idle. Every thought you have |
| W1:29.1 | used thus far and all subsequent ones as well. Today's idea is the | whole basis for vision. |
| W1:37.2 | blesses him by asking nothing of him. Those who see themselves as | whole make no demands. |
| W1:39.3 | of the world. As you apply the exercises to your own world, the | whole world stands to benefit. |
| W1:41.2 | that is perfect, ready to radiate through you and out into the | whole world. It will cure all sorrow and pain and fear and loss |
| W1:71.9 | that it contains two parts, each making equal contribution to the | whole. God's plan for your salvation will work, and other plans will |
| W1:95.17 | You are One Self, complete and healed and | whole, with power to lift the veil of darkness from the world and let |
| W1:97.9 | am I, a holy Son of God, free of all limits, safe and healed and | whole, free to forgive, and free to save the world. |
| W1:113.2 | and perfect peace are mine because I am One Self, completely | whole, at one with all creation and with God. |
| W1:121.12 | his holiness shows you your savior, saved and saving, healed and | whole. Then let him offer you the light you see in him and let your |
| W1:128.7 | value anything you see as much as when you looked at it before. Your | whole perspective on the world will shift by just a little every time |
| W1:136.2 | parts. The aim of all defenses is to keep the truth from being | whole. The parts are seen as if each one were whole within itself. |
| W1:136.2 | the truth from being whole. The parts are seen as if each one were | whole within itself. |
| W1:136.6 | this, and this they seem to do. Every defense takes fragments of the | whole, assembles them without regard to all their true relationships, |
| W1:136.6 | to all their true relationships, and thus constructs illusions of a | whole which is not there. It is this process which imposes threat, |
| W1:136.7 | When parts are wrested from the | whole and seen as separate and as wholes within themselves, they |
| W1:136.7 | within themselves, they become symbols standing for attack upon the | whole, successful in effect, and never to be seen as whole again. And |
| W1:136.7 | attack upon the whole, successful in effect, and never to be seen as | whole again. And yet you have forgotten that they stand but for your |
| W1:152.1 | you choose. Here is your world, complete in all details. Here is its | whole reality for you. And it is only here salvation is. |
| W1:159.2 | your brother as yourself and thus do you perceive that you are | whole. There is no miracle you cannot give, for all are given you. |
| W1:161.2 | not look on everything as one. It sees instead but fragments of the | whole, for only thus could it invent the partial world you see. The |
| W1:R5.10 | as I do. I am incomplete without your part in me. And as I am made | whole, we go together to our ancient home, prepared for us before |
| W1:186.5 | God's Voice assures you that salvation needs your part and that the | whole depends on you, be sure that it is so. The arrogant must cling |
| W1:191.5 | to Him Who pointed out the way to happiness that changed his | whole perception of the world. |
| W1:R6.2 | Spirit has bestowed on us in our last 20 lessons. Each contains the | whole curriculum if understood, practiced, accepted, and applied to |
| W1:R6.2 | use them all and let them blend as one, as each contributes to the | whole we learn. |
| W1:R6.11 | to you each time you call to Him to help you. Let us offer Him the | whole review we now begin, and let us also not forget to Whom it has |
| W1:200.1 | oneness with the universe and God, my Father, One Creator of the | whole that is my Self, forever one with me. I am not a body. I am |
| W2:243.1 | remain beyond my present grasp. I will not think I understand the | whole from bits of my perception, which are all that I can see. Today |
| W2:270.2 | healing to the world through Him, the holy Son whom God created | whole, the holy Son whom God created one. |
| W2:WICR.3 | Will complete in every aspect, making every part container of the | whole. Its oneness is forever guaranteed inviolate, forever held |
| W2:WAI.1 | I am God's Son, complete and healed and | whole, shining in the reflection of His Love. In me is His creation |
| M:4.8 | God is now at the point in his progress at which he sees in it his | whole way out. “Give up what you do not want and keep what you do.” |
| M:4.13 | of trust, and trust remains the bed-rock of the teacher of God's | whole thought system. Let this be lost, and all his learning goes. |
| M:15.2 | Holy are you, eternal, free, and | whole, at peace forever in the Heart of God. Where is the world and |
| M:20.5 | practicing given its one direction. And in this the Holy Spirit's | whole curriculum is specified exactly as it is. |
| M:23.3 | It means that in remembering Jesus, you are remembering God. The | whole relationship of the Son to the Father lies in him. His part in |
| M:28.3 | over the world, forgiving all things and replacing all attack. The | whole reversal is accomplished. Nothing is left to contradict the |
| M:29.3 | usurping of functions not your own is the basis of fear. The | whole world you see reflects the illusion you have done so, making |
whole-hearted (1) | ||
| Tx:5.2 | thus deprive others of the joy of responding whole-heartedly. To be | whole-hearted, you must be happy. If fear and love cannot coexist and |
whole-heartedly (2) | ||
| Tx:5.1 | who come in contact with it, they do not yield to the influence | whole-heartedly. But joy calls forth an integrated willingness to |
| Tx:5.2 | at the same time and thus deprive others of the joy of responding | whole-heartedly. To be whole-hearted, you must be happy. If fear and |
wholeness (77) | ||
| Tx:1.60 | creations lacked holiness. The creation is whole, and the mark of | wholeness is holiness. |
| Tx:1.61 | 42. | Wholeness is the perceptual content of miracles. It thus corrects or |
| Tx:2.46 | of the inner altar, where it undoes the separation and restores the | wholeness of the mind. Before the separation, the mind was |
| Tx:2.102 | the parts of the Sonship have returned. Only then can the meaning of | wholeness, in the true sense, be fully understood. |
| Tx:3.24 | the innocent mind has everything and strives only to protect its | wholeness. This is why it cannot misproject. It can only honor man, |
| Tx:5.52 | still irresistibly drawn to every mind created by God, because God's | Wholeness is the wholeness of His Son. |
| Tx:5.52 | drawn to every mind created by God, because God's Wholeness is the | wholeness of His Son. |
| Tx:5.53 | be hurt and do not want to show your brother anything except your | wholeness. Show him that he cannot hurt you and hold nothing against |
| Tx:5.91 | for what He gave, knowing that this giving will heal you. Sanity is | wholeness, and the sanity of your brothers is yours. |
| Tx:6.16 | of every Son of God is necessary to enable the Sonship to know its | wholeness. Only this is knowledge. |
| Tx:6.25 | a rejection of part of it, and this is the belief in separation. The | wholeness of God, which is His peace, cannot be appreciated except by |
| Tx:6.25 | cannot be appreciated except by a whole mind which recognizes the | wholeness of God's creation and by this recognition knows its |
| Tx:6.32 | partially nor in part. The Holy Spirit enables you to perceive this | wholeness now. You can no more pray for yourselves alone than you can |
| Tx:6.32 | you to create. You cannot extend His Kingdom until you know of its | wholeness. |
| Tx:6.92 | whole Sonship without exception demonstrates that you perceive its | wholeness and have learned that it is one. Now you must be vigilant |
| Tx:6.92 | because, if you let doubt enter, you will lose awareness of its | wholeness and will be unable to teach it. |
| Tx:6.93 | The | wholeness of the Kingdom does not depend on your perception, but your |
| Tx:6.93 | does not depend on your perception, but your awareness of its | wholeness does. It is only your awareness which needs protection |
| Tx:7.10 | with him. This places you both within the Kingdom and restores its | wholeness in your minds. This parallels creation, because it unifies |
| Tx:7.35 | healing, because He knows you only as whole. By healing you learn of | wholeness, and by learning of wholeness you learn to remember God. |
| Tx:7.35 | only as whole. By healing you learn of wholeness, and by learning of | wholeness you learn to remember God. You have forgotten Him, but the |
| Tx:7.65 | not separate. The Oneness of the Creator and the creation is your | wholeness, your sanity, and your limitless power. This limitless |
| Tx:7.90 | This identification is as beyond doubt as it is beyond belief. Your | wholeness has no limits, because being is in infinity. |
| Tx:7.94 | split mind cannot perceive its fullness and needs the miracle of its | wholeness to dawn upon it and heal it. This reawakens the wholeness |
| Tx:7.94 | of its wholeness to dawn upon it and heal it. This reawakens the | wholeness in it and restores it to the Kingdom because of its |
| Tx:7.94 | in it and restores it to the Kingdom because of its acceptance of | wholeness. The full appreciation of its self-fullness makes |
| Tx:7.96 | it creates in perfect joy, and only the whole can be born of its | wholeness. |
| Tx:7.97 | never lost your identity and the extensions which maintain it in | wholeness and peace. Miracles are an expression of this confidence. |
| Tx:8.42 | We are the joint will of the Sonship, whose | wholeness is for all. We begin the journey back by setting out |
| Tx:8.68 | there is unlimited communication and therefore unlimited power and | wholeness. The power of wholeness is extension. Do not arrest your |

| Tx:8.82 | Wholeness heals because it is of the mind. All forms of sickness, | |
| Tx:8.89 | Your healing, then, is part of His health since it is part of His | Wholeness. He cannot lose this, but you can not know it. Yet it is |
| Tx:9.34 | you recognize part of creation. Each part you remember adds to your | wholeness, because each part is whole. Wholeness is indivisible, but |
| Tx:9.34 | you remember adds to your wholeness, because each part is whole. | Wholeness is indivisible, but you cannot learn of your wholeness |
| Tx:9.34 | is whole. Wholeness is indivisible, but you cannot learn of your | wholeness until you see it everywhere. You can know yourself only as |
| Tx:9.77 | God and thus lose sight of yourself? Or would you remind him of his | wholeness and remember your Creator with him? To believe a Son of God |
| Tx:10.19 | opens his own ears to the Voice of the Holy Spirit, whose message is | wholeness. He will enable you to go far beyond the healing you would |
| Tx:10.30 | you have accepted them, you cannot enter. For you cannot understand | Wholeness unless you are whole, and no part of the Son can be |
| Tx:10.30 | whole, and no part of the Son can be excluded if he would know the | Wholeness of his Father. In your mind, you can accept the whole |
| Tx:10.33 | your mind return. That is the law of God for the protection of the | wholeness of His Son. |
| Tx:10.37 | Son. Christ waits for your acceptance of Him as yourself and of His | wholeness as yours. For Christ is the Son of God who lives in his |
| Tx:10.53 | The ego analyzes; the Holy Spirit accepts. The appreciation of | wholeness comes only through acceptance, for to analyze means to |
| Tx:11.42 | The Atonement was not the price of our | wholeness, but it was the price of your awareness of your wholeness. |
| Tx:11.42 | of our wholeness, but it was the price of your awareness of your | wholeness. For what you chose to “sell” had to be kept for you since |

| Tx:12.53 | Those whom you heal bear witness to your healing, for in their | wholeness you will see your own. And as your hymns of praise and |

| Tx:15.109 | in you who welcome Him is returned to Him. And we but celebrate His | Wholeness as we welcome Him into ourselves. Those who receive the |
| Tx:16.39 | attainable removes your own sense of completion and thus denies the | wholeness of your Father. Every fantasy, be it of love or hate, |
| Tx:16.40 | what makes Him whole. In your completion lies the memory of His | wholeness and His gratitude to you for His completion. In His link |

| Tx:18.4 | it was the substitution of illusion for truth, of fragmentation for | wholeness. It has become so splintered and subdivided and divided |
| Tx:19.1 | peace is inevitable. Its attainment is the criterion by which the | wholeness of the dedication can be safely assumed. Yet we also said |
| Tx:19.6 | mind is limited to the body and divided into little parts of seeming | wholeness but without connection. This will not harm the body, but it |
| Tx:19.29 | it seems as if the line must have been broken. Yet at the line, its | wholeness is apparent. Everything seen from the spiral is |
| Tx:26.4 | be denied if any sacrifice is asked of anyone. What witness to the | wholeness of God's Son is seen within a world of separate bodies, |
| Tx:28.60 | be false. What will can come between what must be one, and in Whose | wholeness there can be no gap? |
| Tx:28.61 | is a part of God Himself. Are you not sick if you deny yourself your | wholeness and your health, the Source of help, the Call to healing, |
| Tx:29.1 | feared. There is no way in which a gap could be conceived of in the | wholeness that is His. The compromise the least and littlest gap |
| Tx:30.40 | Behind the search for every idol lies the yearning for completion. | Wholeness has no form because it is unlimited. To seek a special |

| W1:37.2 | will lose. Nor will he have any idea why he is losing. Yet is his | wholeness restored to his awareness through your vision. Your |
| W1:127.3 | rules where love is not. Love is a law without an opposite. Its | wholeness is the power holding everything as one, the link between |
| W1:132.14 | the Son and break away a part of God Himself and thus destroy His | wholeness. Can a world which comes from this idea be real? Can it be |
| W1:151.14 | and He will give them back as miracles which joyously proclaim the | wholeness and the happiness God wills His Son as proof of His eternal |
| W1:152.9 | in acknowledging its mightiness, its changelessness, and its eternal | wholeness—all-encompassing, God's perfect gift to His beloved Son. |

| W1:195.6 | rejoice that no exceptions ever can be made which would reduce our | wholeness nor impair or change our function to complete the One Who |
| W2:323.2 | and of images we worshiped falsely—truth returns to us in | wholeness and in joy. We are deceived no longer. Love has now |
| M:19.3 | and justified by this careful selectivity in which all thought of | wholeness must be lost. Forgiveness has no place in such a scheme, |
| M:19.4 | Salvation is God's justice. It restores to your awareness the | wholeness of the fragments you perceive as broken off and separate. |
| M:19.4 | the fear of death. For separate fragments must decay and die, but | wholeness is immortal. It remains forever and forever like its |

| Tx:4.50 | that it wants it without ambivalence, and this kind of wanting is | wholly without the ego's “drive to get.” There is a kind of |
| Tx:4.102 | God is praised whenever any mind learns to be | wholly helpful. This is impossible without being wholly harmless |

| Tx:5.2 | Those who attempt to heal without being | wholly joyous themselves call forth different kinds of responses at |
| Tx:5.2 | happy. If fear and love cannot coexist and if it is impossible to be | wholly fearful and remain alive, then the only possible whole state |
| Tx:5.2 | love and joy. Therefore, the only possible whole state is the | wholly joyous. To heal or to make joyous is therefore the same as to |
| Tx:5.5 | revelation is an experience of pure joy. If you do not choose to be | wholly joyous, your mind cannot have what it does not choose to be. |
| Tx:5.94 | I have already told you that whenever you are not | wholly joyous it is because you have reacted with a lack of love to |
| Tx:5.95 | if you realize that you must already have made a decision not to be | wholly joyous if that is how you feel. Therefore, the first step in |

| Tx:6.22 | there was much they would understand later because they were not | wholly ready to follow me at the time. I emphasize this only because |
| Tx:6.27 | your brothers and separated from them. The ego justifies this on the | wholly spurious grounds that it makes you seem “better” than they |
| Tx:6.42 | it that it is perfectly safe forever. The perfectly safe are | wholly benign. They bless because they know they are blessed. Without |
| Tx:6.42 | because they know they are blessed. Without anxiety the mind is | wholly kind, and because it projects beneficence, it is beneficent. |
| Tx:6.51 | because the first question was never asked. Having finally been | wholly answered, it has never been. Being alone lives in the Kingdom, |
| Tx:6.57 | Him so that He cannot impart His joy and know that His Children are | wholly joyous. This is an ongoing process, not in time, but in |
| Tx:6.80 | has not yet been accepted, because nothing is difficult that is | wholly desired. To desire wholly is to create, and creating cannot be |

| Tx:8.2 | knowledge offers you, but it is clear that you do not regard this as | wholly desirable. If you did, you would hardly be willing to throw it |
| Tx:8.36 | The undivided will of the Sonship is the perfect creator, being | wholly in the likeness of God, Whose Will it is. You cannot be exempt |
| Tx:8.52 | where your treasure is, as His does. You who are beloved of God are | wholly blessed. Learn this of me, and free the holy will of all those |
| Tx:8.77 | does not know anything, we said the one thing about the ego that is | wholly true. But there is a corollary; if knowledge is being and the |
| Tx:9.40 | because the ego does not love you. It is unaware of what you are and | wholly mistrustful of everything it perceives, because its own |

| Tx:9.67 | You will remember everything the instant you desire it | wholly, for if to desire wholly is to create, you will have willed |
| Tx:9.67 | everything the instant you desire it wholly, for if to desire | wholly is to create, you will have willed away the separation, |
| Tx:9.101 | the acknowledgment of yourself as you are. Your Father created you | wholly without sin, wholly without pain, and wholly without suffering |
| Tx:9.101 | of yourself as you are. Your Father created you wholly without sin, | wholly without pain, and wholly without suffering of any kind. If you |
| Tx:9.101 | Your Father created you wholly without sin, wholly without pain, and | wholly without suffering of any kind. If you deny Him, you bring sin, |

| Tx:9.104 | to perceive suffering anywhere. If God knows His Children to be | wholly joyous, it is blasphemous to feel depressed. All of these |
| Tx:10.21 | and fulfill it, for only in this can your will and your Father's be | wholly joined. To have Him is to be like Him, and He has given |
| Tx:10.36 | Christ is at God's altar, waiting to welcome His Son. But come | wholly without condemnation, for otherwise you will believe that the |
| Tx:10.37 | waits for the restoration of Himself in you. God knows His Son as | wholly blameless as Himself, and He is approached through the |
| Tx:10.76 | the meaning of anything you perceive. Not one thought you hold is | wholly true. The recognition of this is your firm beginning. You are |
| Tx:11.37 | ego is part of your mind, and because of its source, the ego is not | wholly split off, or it could not be believed at all. For it is your |
| Tx:11.99 | You, then, are saved because God's Son is guiltless. And being | wholly pure, you are invulnerable. |
| Tx:12.52 | timeless union with them is your continuity, unbroken because it is | wholly shared. God's guiltless Son is only light. There is no |

| Tx:13.35 | ravaged and torn in endless battles which he himself perceives as | wholly without meaning. |
| Tx:13.37 | that you value here. For nothing that you value here you value | wholly, and so you do not value it at all. Value is where God placed |
| Tx:13.37 | God esteems cannot be judged, for it has been established. It is | wholly of value. It can merely be appreciated or not. To value it |
| Tx:13.38 | in this world can give this peace, for nothing in this world is | wholly shared. Perfect perception can merely show you what is capable |
| Tx:13.38 | Perfect perception can merely show you what is capable of being | wholly shared. It can also show you the results of sharing while you |
| Tx:13.42 | share with you is known. Yet His channels of reaching out cannot be | wholly closed and separated from Him. Peace will be yours, because |
| Tx:13.50 | and all this has been denied, your thought system is closed off and | wholly separated from the truth. This is an insane world, and do not |
| Tx:13.51 | Seeing is always outward. Were your thoughts | wholly of you, the thought system which you made would be forever |
| Tx:13.71 | is nothing to forgive. No one can hurt the Son of God. His guilt is | wholly without cause, and being without cause, cannot exist. |
| Tx:13.76 | of the perfect purity of everything that He created, for it is | wholly pure. Do not decide against it, for being of Him, it must be |
| Tx:14.7 | Blessed Son of a | wholly blessing Father, joy was created for you. Who can condemn whom |
| Tx:14.19 | so you do not realize that only one means anything, and the other is | wholly without sense of any kind. |
| Tx:14.32 | be released from littleness to glory. To what He promised God He is | wholly faithful, for He shared with God the promise that was given |
| Tx:14.33 | that is not equally worthy of both but will be replaced by gifts | wholly acceptable to Father and to Son. Can you offer guilt to God? |
| Tx:14.63 | God, by which to recognize if what you learned is true. If you are | wholly free of fear of any kind, and if all those who meet or even |
| Tx:15.10 | it is here that you are completely absolved, completely free, and | wholly without condemnation. From this holy instant wherein holiness |
| Tx:15.17 | remove all fear. For the instant of peace is eternal because it is | wholly without fear. It will come, being the lesson God gives you |
| Tx:15.20 | You will doubt until you hear one witness whom you have | wholly released through the Holy Spirit. And then you will doubt no |
| Tx:15.20 | here it is, all in this instant, complete, accomplished, and given | wholly. |
| Tx:15.33 | If you are | wholly willing to leave salvation to the plan of God and unwilling to |
| Tx:15.42 | honestly, “Would I want to have perfect communication, and am I | wholly willing to let everything that interferes with it go forever?” |
| Tx:15.57 | our faith in God's Son because we recognize together that he is | wholly worthy of it, and in our appreciation of his worth, we cannot |
| Tx:15.59 | you are an idea. And like Him, you can give yourself completely, | wholly without loss, and only with gain. |
| Tx:15.65 | given and fully returned. Being complete, it asks nothing. Being | wholly pure, everyone joined in it has everything. This is not the |
| Tx:15.86 | and seeing it exactly as it is. For it is impossible to recognize as | wholly without gratification what you think you want. The body is the |
| Tx:15.91 | only the attraction of God. Accepting it as undivided, you join Him | wholly in an instant. [For you would place no limits on your union |
| Tx:16.12 | is the way God thinks, and what is natural to Him is natural to you. | Wholly natural perception would show you instantly that order of |
| Tx:16.16 | God has called to you, and you have heard. Never again will you be | wholly willing not to listen. |
| Tx:16.19 | Reality is safe and sure and | wholly kind to everyone and everything. There is no greater love than |
| Tx:16.23 | regard yourself as one? For it is impossible to teach successfully | wholly without conviction, and it is equally impossible that |
| Tx:16.38 | Across the bridge is your completion, for you will be | wholly in God, willing for nothing special but only to be wholly like |
| Tx:16.38 | will be wholly in God, willing for nothing special but only to be | wholly like unto Him, completing Him by your completion. Fear not to |
| Tx:16.38 | and where everything fails to satisfy. In the Name of God, be | wholly willing to abandon all illusions. In any relationship in which |
| Tx:16.38 | to abandon all illusions. In any relationship in which you are | wholly willing to accept completion, and only this, there is God |
| Tx:16.39 | you and will lead you straight to Him, where your completion rests | wholly compatible with His. Every illusion which you accept into your |
| Tx:16.40 | Would He not answer you whose completion is His? He loves you | wholly without illusion, as you must love. For love is wholly without |
| Tx:16.40 | He loves you wholly without illusion, as you must love. For love is | wholly without illusion and therefore wholly without fear. Whom God |
| Tx:16.40 | as you must love. For love is wholly without illusion and therefore | wholly without fear. Whom God remembers must be whole. And God has |
| Tx:16.65 | of love in any special relationship here. For you are no longer | wholly insane, and you would recognize the guilt of self-betrayal for |
| Tx:16.67 | yield to the illusion of the beauty and holiness of guilt. Only the | wholly insane could look on death and suffering, sickness and despair |
| Tx:17.9 | of Atonement. All else is learned, but this is given, complete and | wholly perfect. No one but Him Who planned salvation could complete |
| Tx:17.38 | It must be the pictures only that you compare, or the comparison is | wholly without meaning. Remember that it is the picture that is the |
| Tx:17.41 | you the whole of creation in exchange for your little picture, | wholly without value and entirely deprived of meaning. |
| Tx:17.49 | heard. Has He not been very explicit in His answer? You are not now | wholly insane. Can you deny that He has given you a most explicit |
| Tx:17.68 | but do not use it. Faithlessness is the servant of illusion and | wholly faithful to its master. Use it and it will carry you straight |
| Tx:17.73 | of Him Who walks with you in every situation. You are no longer | wholly insane, nor no longer alone. For loneliness in God must be a |
| Tx:18.48 | possible that I can have it without him, or he without me. Yet it is | wholly possible for us to share it now. And so I choose this instant |
| Tx:18.90 | to be a solid wall before the sun. Its impenetrable appearance is | wholly an illusion. It gives way softly to the mountain tops which |
| Tx:19.1 | We said before that when a situation has been dedicated | wholly to truth, peace is inevitable. Its attainment is the criterion |
| Tx:19.1 | said that peace without faith will never be attained, for what is | wholly dedicated to truth as its only goal is brought to truth by |
| Tx:19.5 | all obstacles that seem to rise between them. Faithlessness is | wholly dedicated to illusions; faith wholly to truth. Partial |
| Tx:19.5 | between them. Faithlessness is wholly dedicated to illusions; faith | wholly to truth. Partial dedication is impossible. Truth is the |
| Tx:19.12 | Him. Faith is a gift you offer to the Son of God through Him, and | wholly acceptable to his Father as to him. And therefore offered you. |
| Tx:19.21 | sin as error is always indefensible to the ego. The idea of sin is | wholly sacrosanct to its thought system and quite unapproachable |
| Tx:19.21 | the most “holy” concept in the ego's system—lovely and powerful, | wholly true, and necessarily protected with every defense at its |
| Tx:19.42 | in peace within you. Yet you are still unwilling to let it join you | wholly. You still oppose the Will of God, just by a little. And that |
| Tx:19.49 | only to love.] Overlooking guilt completely, it sees no fear. Being | wholly without attack, it could not be afraid. Fear is attracted to |
| Tx:19.51 | The fierce attraction which guilt holds for fear is | wholly absent from love's gentle perception. What love would look |
| Tx:19.69 | for the eternal is forever kind, infinite in its patience, and | wholly loving. It will accept you wholly and give you peace. Yet it |
| Tx:19.69 | infinite in its patience, and wholly loving. It will accept you | wholly and give you peace. Yet it can unite only with what already is |
| Tx:19.87 | What danger can assail the | wholly innocent? What can attack the guiltless? What fear can enter |
| Tx:20.45 | would rest upon contingency, but there is nothing else. And this is | wholly loving and forever. Yet has the Son of God invented an unholy |
| Tx:20.45 | into fragments, and full of fear. The one created by his Father is | wholly self-encompassing and self-extending. The one he made is |
| Tx:20.45 | is wholly self-encompassing and self-extending. The one he made is | wholly self-destructive and self-limiting. |
| Tx:20.73 | in it, to sin and die, attack and murder and destroy themselves, are | wholly unreal? Could you have faith in what you see if you accepted |
| Tx:21.23 | to look within and see what must be there plainly in sight and | wholly independent of inference and judgment. Undoing is not your |
| Tx:21.44 | partial—still limited and incomplete, yet born within you. Not | wholly mad, you have been willing to look on much of your insanity |
| Tx:21.82 | your mind again. When it is this you do not want, the rest are | wholly answered. |
| Tx:21.89 | yet it is the final one that really asks if you are willing to be | wholly sane. |
| Tx:22.6 | such as this send back its messages? Surely not you, whose sight is | wholly independent of the eyes which look upon the world. If this is |
| Tx:22.22 | This course will be believed entirely or not at all. For it is | wholly true or wholly false and cannot be but partially believed. And |
| Tx:22.22 | will be believed entirely or not at all. For it is wholly true or | wholly false and cannot be but partially believed. And you will |
| Tx:22.33 | of everything, the wall that stands between you and the truth, is | wholly true. Yet how can sight which stops at nothingness as if it |
| Tx:22.47 | to keep love out. God rests with you in quiet, undefended and | wholly undefending, for in this quiet state alone is strength and |
| Tx:23.47 | is no attack, and no illusion in any form stalks Heaven. Heaven is | wholly true. No difference enters, and what is all the same cannot |
| Tx:23.54 | present, and their future always the same, eternally complete, and | wholly shared. They know it is impossible their happiness could ever |
| Tx:24.26 | and makes it sin. How can he then give his forgiveness | wholly, when he would not receive it for himself? For it is sure he |
| Tx:24.26 | would not receive it for himself? For it is sure he would receive it | wholly the instant that he gave it so. And thus his secret guilt |
| Tx:25.21 | from him nor from his Father. You need no forgiveness, for the | wholly pure have never sinned. Give then what He has given you that |
| Tx:25.35 | And in the sunlight you will stand in quiet, in innocence, and | wholly unafraid. And from you will the rest you found extend, so that |
| Tx:25.38 | feared instead of loved. Who would attack whatever he perceives as | wholly innocent? And who, because he wishes to attack, can fail to |
| Tx:25.44 | seems easier to look upon; less painful to the eyes than what is | wholly clear and unambiguous. Yet this is not what eyes are for. And |
| Tx:25.55 | insane and meaningless. Love is the basis for a world perceived as | wholly mad to sinners who believe theirs is the way to sanity. But |
| Tx:25.63 | learn it is your will to be without it. You need not give it to Him | wholly willingly, for if you could, you'd have no need of Him. But |
| Tx:25.66 | not of this. But justice does He know and knows it well. For He is | wholly fair to everyone. |
| Tx:25.70 | who ask for punishment but have a Judge Who knows that they are | wholly innocent in truth. In justice, He is bound to set them free |
| Tx:25.83 | deserves to suffer more and others less? And is this justice to the | wholly innocent? A miracle is justice. It is not a special gift to |
| Tx:26.19 | just beyond the gate of Heaven. Here is every thought made pure and | wholly simple. Here is sin denied and everything that is received |
| Tx:26.56 | creation rise within you to replace the world you see with Heaven, | wholly perfect and complete. What is forgiveness but a willingness |
| Tx:27.1 | attempt that would combine attack and innocence. Who can combine the | wholly incompatible and make a unity of what can never join? Walk you |
| Tx:27.20 | unhealed. Yet you can show him that his suffering is purposeless and | wholly without cause. Show him your healing, and he will consent no |
| Tx:27.31 | hate, or to endow with power or to see as weak. The picture has been | wholly canceled out because it symbolized a contradiction which |
| Tx:27.31 | be but nothingness? The picture of your brother that you see is | wholly absent and has never been. Let then the empty space it |
| Tx:27.33 | form, unpictured and unseen. Forgiveness is not yet a power known as | wholly free of limits. Yet it sets no limits you have chosen to |
| Tx:27.35 | A Power | wholly limitless has come, not to destroy, but to receive Its own. |
| Tx:28.11 | is quiet now, and what has come to take its place will not be | wholly unremembered afterwards. |
| Tx:28.52 | or time. For it fills every place and every time and makes them | wholly indivisible. |
| Tx:28.61 | There is no middle ground in any aspect of salvation. You accept it | wholly or accept it not. What is unseparated must be joined. And what |
| Tx:29.13 | asked Him, and He came. You did not hear Him enter, for you did not | wholly welcome Him. And yet His gifts came with Him. He has laid them |
| Tx:30.32 | they cannot decide alone to guarantee the joy they asked for will be | wholly shared. For they have understood the basic law that makes |
| Tx:31.54 | your brother be. This shifts the concept of the self from what is | wholly passive and at least makes way for active choice and some |
| Tx:31.69 | about yourself. But should one brother dawn upon your sight as | wholly worthy of forgiveness, then your concept of yourself is wholly |
| Tx:31.69 | as wholly worthy of forgiveness, then your concept of yourself is | wholly changed. Your “evil” thoughts have been forgiven with his, |
| Tx:31.80 | yourself. It sees no past in anyone at all. And thus it serves a | wholly open mind, unclouded by old concepts and prepared to look on |
| W1:8.2 | The only | wholly true thought one can hold about the past is that it is not |
| W1:19.2 | again emphasizing the fact that minds are joined. This is rarely a | wholly welcome idea at first, since it seems to carry with it an |
| W1:27.1 | of today's exercises is to bring the time when the idea will be | wholly true a little nearer. |
| W1:29.4 | particularly tempting in connection with today's idea because of its | wholly alien nature. Remember that any order you impose is equally |
| W1:44.5 | Your mind is no longer | wholly untrained. You are quite ready to learn the form of exercise |
| W1:45.10 | since then will change, but the foundation on which they rest is | wholly changeless. It is this foundation toward which the exercises |
| W1:49.2 | that is listening to the Voice of God is calm, always at rest, and | wholly certain. It is really the only part there is. The other part |
| W1:66.3 | Today we will try to go past this | wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the truth about your |
| W1:67.2 | the longer practice period, we will think about your reality and its | wholly unchanged and unchangeable nature. We will begin by repeating |
| W1:72.4 | for if His Son is only a body, so must He be as well. A creator | wholly unlike his creation is inconceivable. |
| W1:73.10 | with the recognition that God's plan for salvation, and only His, is | wholly in accord with your will. It is not the purpose of an alien |
| W1:74.2 | for today are directed towards finding it. The idea itself is | wholly true. Therefore it cannot give rise to illusions. Without |
| W1:83.7 | my function. The oneness of my happiness and my function remains | wholly unaffected by this. Nothing, including this, can justify the |
| W1:101.3 | before salvation is appeased. Its wrath is boundless, merciless, but | wholly just. |
| W1:103.6 | the day, and quiet all your fears with this assurance, kind and | wholly true: |
| W1:108.1 | all your conflicts and mistaken thoughts into one concept which is | wholly true? Even that one will disappear because the Thought behind |
| W1:108.5 | will suffice for all correction or that to forgive one brother | wholly is enough to bring salvation to all minds. For these are but |
| W1:125.9 | Will, at one with It, with no illusions interposed between the | wholly indivisible and true. |
| W1:129.4 | what they say cannot be symbolized. Their knowledge is direct and | wholly shared and wholly one. |
| W1:129.4 | be symbolized. Their knowledge is direct and wholly shared and | wholly one. |
| W1:131.7 | the past or yet to happen? What He wills is now, without a past and | wholly futureless. It is as far removed from time as is a tiny candle |
| W1:134.6 | It is sin's unreality that makes forgiveness natural and | wholly sane, a deep relief to those who offer it; a quiet blessing |
| W1:136.12 | cannot be attacked. What is unalterable cannot change. And what is | wholly sinless cannot sin. |
| W1:136.17 | the truth. I will accept the truth of what I am and let my mind be | wholly healed today. |
| W1:138.10 | alternatives when only one is seen as valuable, the other as a | wholly worthless thing, a but imagined source of guilt and pain? Who |
| W1:151.11 | seems to touch on you in any way from His one frame of reference, | wholly unified and sure. And you will see the love beyond the hate, |
| W1:158.1 | that you are a mind, in Mind and purely mind, sinless forever, | wholly unafraid because you were created out of Love. Nor have you |
| W1:162.4 | beyond themselves to change the mind of him who uses them. So | wholly is it changed that it is now the treasury in which God places |
| W1:166.9 | than your own. Perhaps His gifts to you are real. Perhaps He has not | wholly been outwitted by your plan to keep His Son in deep oblivion |
| W1:170.4 | you of peace, splitting your mind into two camps which seem | wholly irreconcilable. For love now has an “enemy,” an opposite; and |
| W1:181.9 | there. And as our focus goes beyond mistakes, we will behold a | wholly sinless world. When seeing this is all we want to see, when |
| W1:186.11 | to dispel the night, your truly given function stands out clear and | wholly unambiguous. There is no doubt of its validity. It comes from |
| W1:189.3 | belies the other. Only one can be perceived at all. The other one is | wholly meaningless. A world in which forgiveness shines on everything |
| W1:189.7 | from anything. Forget this world, forget this course, and come with | wholly empty hands unto your God. |
| W1:190.1 | death. Can such projections be attested to? Can they be anything but | wholly false? |
| W1:190.2 | for a crime that could not be committed, for attack on what is | wholly unassailable. It is a nightmare of abandonment by an eternal |
| W1:191.9 | And in that thought is everything you look on | wholly changed. |
| W1:192.3 | Yet God created One Who has the power to translate into form the | wholly formless. What He makes are dreams, but of a kind so close to |
| W1:193.1 | expanding in the joy of full creation, and eternally open and | wholly limitless in Him. This is His Will. And thus His Will provides |
| W1:196.10 | There is an instant in which terror seems to grip your mind so | wholly that escape appears quite hopeless. When you realize once and |
| W2:224.1 | My true Identity is so secure, so lofty, sinless, glorious and great, | wholly beneficent and free from guilt that Heaven looks to it to give |
| W2:234.1 | disturb the peace of God the Father and the Son. This we accept as | wholly true today. |
| W2:242.2 | And so we give today to You. We come with | wholly open minds. We do not ask for anything that we may think we |
| W2:268.2 | is free of pain. Only reality is free of loss. Only reality is | wholly safe. And it is only this we seek today. |
| W2:286.2 | us hope that we have found the way and traveled far along it to a | wholly certain goal. Today we will not doubt the end which God |
| W2:291.2 | instead of from myself. I do not know the way to You. But You are | wholly certain. Father, lead Your Son along the quiet path that ends |
| W2:305.1 | Christ's vision finds a peace so deep and quiet, undisturbable and | wholly changeless that the world contains no counterpart. Comparisons |
| W2:WILJ.2 | For it sees the world as totally forgiven, without sin and | wholly purposeless. Without a cause and now without a function in |
| W2:328.2 | contradicts what You would have me be. It is Your will that I be | wholly safe, eternally at peace. And happily I share that will which |
| W2:354.1 | the Christ establishes me as Your Son, beyond the reach of time and | wholly free of every law but Yours. I have no self except the Christ |
| M:4.7 | best interests on behalf of truth. He has not realized as yet how | wholly impossible such a demand would be. He can learn this only as |
| M:4.15 | Therefore God's teachers are | wholly gentle. They need the strength of gentleness, for it is in |
| M:4.22 | True faithfulness, however, does not deviate. Being consistent, it is | wholly honest. Being unswerving, it is full of trust. Being based on |
| M:8.6 | outside world. And of these two, but one is real. Just as reality is | wholly real, apart from size and shape and time and place—for |
| M:10.3 | is no distortion in his perception, so that his judgment would be | wholly fair to everyone on whom it rests, now and in the future. Who |
| M:10.4 | judgment on everyone and everything involved in any way. And He is | wholly fair to everyone, for there is no distortion in His perception. |
| M:12.1 | The answer to this question is “one.” One | wholly perfect teacher whose learning is complete suffices. This One, |
| M:12.1 | redeemed, becomes the Self Who is the Son of God. He who was always | wholly spirit now no longer sees Himself as a body or even as in a |
| M:15.3 | judgment on yourself, teacher of God? Do you believe that this is | wholly true? No, not yet, not yet. But this is still your goal—why |
| M:18.2 | teachers’ major lesson is to learn how to react to magic thoughts | wholly without anger. Only in this way can they proclaim the truth |
| M:19.4 | one with Him. God's Judgment is His justice. Onto this—a judgment | wholly lacking in condemnation, an evaluation based entirely on love |
| M:20.6 | God? No more than this—the simple understanding that His Will is | wholly without opposite. There is no thought that contradicts His |
| M:22.1 | concept possible in this world, because it is the source of a | wholly unified perception. Partial Atonement is a meaningless idea, |
| M:28.3 | curriculum ends. From here on no directions are needed. Vision is | wholly corrected and all mistakes undone. Attack is meaningless, and |
| M:29.4 | has not forgotten it. His decisions bring benefit to all, being | wholly devoid of attack. And therefore incapable of arousing guilt. |

| Tx:8.43 | of yourselves. He has saved you for yourselves. Let us glorify Him | whom the world denies, for over His Kingdom, it has no power. No one |
| Tx:8.50 | born of my knowledge of myself and Him. We cannot be separated. | Whom God has joined cannot be separated, and God has joined all His |
| Tx:8.58 | of yourselves you can do nothing. You are not of yourselves. He of | Whom you are has willed your power and glory for you, with which you |
| Tx:8.83 | How you wake is the sign of how you have used sleep. To | whom did you give it? Under which teacher did you place it? Whenever |
| Tx:8.113 | speaks to me through you. If you would hear me, hear my brothers in | whom God's Voice speaks. The answer to all prayers lies in them. You |
| Tx:10.19 | the invitation must come from you, for you have surely learned that | whom you invite as your guest will abide with you. |
| Tx:10.21 | your minds, and let nothing that will obscure it enter. The Guest | whom God sent you will teach you how to do this if you but recognize |
| Tx:10.22 | Would you be hostage to the ego or host to God? You will accept only | whom you invite. You are free to determine who shall be your guest |
| Tx:10.23 | Conflict is the root of all evil, for being blind, it does not see | whom it attacks. Yet it always attacks the Son of God, and the Son of |

| Tx:10.65 | the last thorn from his forehead. The love of God surrounds His Son, | whom the god of the crucifixion condemns. Teach not that I died in |
| Tx:10.66 | redeemed from his own crucifixion, and you cannot assign to death | whom God has given eternal life. The dream of crucifixion still lies |
| Tx:10.82 | for it can only free you. Nothing of God will enslave His Son, | whom He created free and whose freedom is protected by His Being. |
| Tx:10.84 | And being deceived in yourself, you are deceived in your Father in | Whom no deceit is possible. |
| Tx:10.87 | you, you are offended in yourself and are condemning God's Son, | whom God condemneth not. Let the Holy Spirit remove all offense of |
| Tx:10.87 | use it for all He sends you, for He wills to heal the Son of God in | whom He is not deceived. |
| Tx:11.39 | before you He will give you. For He will never deceive God's Son, | whom He loves with the love of the Father. |
| Tx:11.75 | The ego is not a traitor to God to | Whom treachery is impossible, but it is a traitor to you who believe |
| Tx:12.40 | is what we should offer Him. For every Son of God is given you to | whom God gave Himself. And it is God to Whom you must offer them to |
| Tx:12.40 | Son of God is given you to whom God gave Himself. And it is God to | Whom you must offer them to recognize His gift to you. |
| Tx:12.53 | remember Him as you call forth the witnesses to His creation. Those | whom you heal bear witness to your healing, for in their wholeness |
| Tx:13.16 | that it is impossible to condemn the Son of God in part. Those | whom you see as guilty become the witnesses to guilt in you, and you |
| Tx:13.16 | Project it not, for while you do, it cannot be undone. With everyone | whom you release from guilt, great is the joy in Heaven, where the |
| Tx:13.23 | present. Yet you let them stand between you and your brothers, with | whom you find no real relationships at all. Can you expect to use |
| Tx:13.32 | forever. I thank You, Father, for the purity of Your most holy Son, | whom You have created guiltless forever. |
| Tx:13.41 | would have removed, because it breaks communication with you with | whom He would communicate. His voice will be heard. |
| Tx:13.54 | The Holy Spirit needs a happy learner in | whom His mission can be happily accomplished. You who are steadfastly |
| Tx:13.78 | thinking that salvation lay in you alone. Salvation is of Him to | Whom God gave it for you. He has not forgotten it. Forget Him not, |
| Tx:13.79 | Seek not to appraise the worth of God's Son, | whom He created holy, for to do so is to evaluate his Father and |
| Tx:14.7 | a wholly blessing Father, joy was created for you. Who can condemn | whom God has blessed? There is nothing in the Mind of God that does |
| Tx:14.11 | but to restore what is the right of God's creation. From everyone | whom you accord release from guilt, you will inevitably learn your |
| Tx:14.12 | from which no one is excluded. Within its holy circle is everyone | whom God created as His Son. Joy is its unifying attribute, with no |
| Tx:14.14 | it. That is the symbol of the release from guilt by guiltlessness. | Whom you perceive as guilty, you would crucify. Yet you restore |
| Tx:14.21 | He will interpret it to you with perfect clarity, for He knows with | Whom you are in perfect communication. |
| Tx:14.31 | You cannot see alone. Sharing perception with Him | Whom God has given you teaches you how to recognize what you see. It |
| Tx:14.32 | be brought to the judgment of the Holy Spirit and there undone. | Whom He would save for glory is saved for it. He has promised the |
| Tx:14.37 | only what is worthy of the Father will be accepted by the Son, for | whom it was intended. To whom God gives Himself, He is given. Your |
| Tx:14.37 | the Father will be accepted by the Son, for whom it was intended. To | whom God gives Himself, He is given. Your little gifts will vanish on |
| Tx:14.61 | sent from Him, already learned for every Child of light by Him to | Whom God gave it. This lesson shines with God's glory, for in it lies |
| Tx:14.66 | refusal to attempt to teach yourself what you do not know, the Guide | Whom God has given you will speak to you. He will take His rightful |
| Tx:15.20 | You will doubt until you hear one witness | whom you have wholly released through the Holy Spirit. And then you |
| Tx:15.27 | His magnitude and make His Son hostage to the ego cannot make little | whom God has joined with Him. Every decision you make is for Heaven |
| Tx:15.28 | deceives you, but your magnitude is of Him Who dwells in you and in | Whom you dwell. Touch no one, then, with littleness, in the name of |
| Tx:15.29 | our task together to restore the awareness of magnitude to the host | whom God appointed for Himself. It is beyond all your littleness to |
| Tx:15.89 | for this? For the body is little and limited, and only those | whom you would see without the limits the ego would impose on them |
| Tx:16.17 | God wills you better. Could you not look with greater charity on | whom God loves with perfect love? |
| Tx:16.26 | two selves in conflict. What is beyond God? If you who hold Him and | whom He holds are the universe, all else must be outside, where |
| Tx:16.40 | love is wholly without illusion and therefore wholly without fear. | Whom God remembers must be whole. And God has never forgotten what |
| Tx:17.6 | you have held outside the truth to Him who knows the truth and in | Whom all is brought to truth. [Salvation from separation will be |
| Tx:17.17 | of vengeance and what can be most readily associated with those on | whom vengeance is really sought are centered on and separated off as |
| Tx:17.17 | unreality. The shadow figures enter more and more, and the one in | whom they seem to be decreases in importance. |
| Tx:17.19 | the attempt at union becomes a way of excluding even the one with | whom the union was sought. For it was formed to get him out of it and |
| Tx:17.22 | you to light your way and make it clear to you. God's Son is one. | Whom God has joined as one, the ego cannot break apart. The spark of |
| Tx:17.70 | The power set in you in | whom the Holy Spirit's goal has been established is so far beyond |
| Tx:17.71 | shines from the center of the situation and touches everyone to | whom the situation's purpose calls. It calls to everyone. There is no |
| Tx:18.12 | Whom God has called should hear no substitutes. Their call is but an | |
| Tx:18.21 | purpose He has given you. And think not that He has forgotten you to | whom He gave the gift. He uses everyone who calls on Him as means for |
| Tx:18.48 | this holy instant for myself that I may share it with my brother, | whom I love. It is not possible that I can have it without him, or he |
| Tx:18.58 | be? You are surrounded only by Him. What limit can there be on you | whom He encompasses? Everyone has experienced what he would call a |
| Tx:18.83 | dust still seems to cloud your eyes and keep you sightless. Yet He | Whom you welcomed has come to you and would welcome you. He has |
| Tx:19.12 | Faith is the gift of God, through Him | Whom God has given you. Faithlessness looks upon the Son of God and |
| Tx:19.13 | the body's eyes but in the sight of Him Who joined you and in | Whom you are united. Grace is not given to a body, but to a mind. And |
| Tx:19.16 | to time. For what you think you do to the eternal you do to you. | Whom God created as His Son is slave to nothing, being lord of all |
| Tx:19.23 | and changed His Mind completely. Mourn, then, the death of God, | Whom sin has killed! And this would be the ego's wish, which in its |
| Tx:19.57 | Yet would I offer you my body, you | whom I love, knowing its littleness? Or would I teach that bodies |
| Tx:19.87 | born in time but nourished in eternity. Behold this infant to | whom you gave a resting-place by your forgiveness of each other, and |
| Tx:19.103 | His Friend. The “enemies” of Christ, the worshipers of sin, know not | Whom they attack. This is your brother, crucified by sin, and waiting |
| Tx:19.104 | has been given you to give each other, and thus receive it. | Whom you forgive is free, and what you give you share. Forgive the |
| Tx:20.7 | the Son of God for what he is. Forget not that it is your savior to | whom the gift is offered. Offer him thorns and you are crucified. |
| Tx:20.25 | your hold and raise your eyes unto your strong companion, in | whom the meaning of your freedom lies. He seemed to be crucified |
| Tx:20.65 | sin. And thus it leads you to reality. Your holy brother, sight of | whom is your release, is no illusion. Attempt to see him not in |
| Tx:21.11 | This is the vision of the Son of God, | whom you know well. Here is the sight of him who knows his Father. |
| Tx:21.12 | sing of. What is a miracle but this remembering? And who is there in | whom this memory lies not? The light in one awakens it in all. And |
| Tx:21.29 | Forget not this—to bargain is to set a limit, and any brother with | whom you have a limited relationship you hate. You may attempt to |
| Tx:21.35 | now toward holiness. For what you think is sin is limitation, and | whom you try to limit to the body you hate because you fear. In your |
| Tx:21.42 | the ego is not alone. Its rule is tempered, and its unknown “enemy,” | Whom it cannot even see, it fears. Loudly the ego tells you not to |
| Tx:21.71 | Because they do not know that they are one with him, they know not | whom they hate. They are indeed a sorry army, each one as likely to |
| Tx:21.77 | or heal. For healing comes of power and attack of helplessness. | Whom you attack you cannot want to heal. And whom you would have |
| Tx:21.77 | attack of helplessness. Whom you attack you cannot want to heal. And | whom you would have healed must be the one you chose to be protected |
| Tx:21.88 | will ask because desire is a request, an asking for, and made by one | whom God Himself will never fail to answer. God has already given him |
| Tx:22.1 | Take pity on yourselves, so long enslaved. Rejoice | whom God hath joined have come together and need no longer look on |
| Tx:22.5 | Let reason take another step. If you attack | whom God would heal and hate the one He loves, then you and your |
| Tx:22.6 | see through eyes which are not yours must make no sense to you. To | whom would vision such as this send back its messages? Surely not |
| Tx:22.20 | guilt was given to the Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to | Whom nothing He wills can be impossible, the means for its attainment |
| Tx:22.47 | with nothing in between. God holds your hands, and what can separate | whom He has joined as one with Him? It is your Father Whom you would |
| Tx:22.47 | can separate whom He has joined as one with Him? It is your Father | Whom you would defend against. Yet it remains impossible to keep love |
| Tx:22.48 | meaningless! How insignificant before the quiet strength of those | whom love has joined! This is your “enemy”—a frightened mouse that |
| Tx:22.48 | by this mouse but by the Will of God. And can a mouse betray | whom God has joined? |
| Tx:22.58 | for what the Holy Spirit does with the gifts you give each other, to | whom He offers them, and where and when is up to Him. He will bestow |
| Tx:23.10 | sight into the giver of your peace. Your “enemy” was God Himself, to | Whom all conflict, triumph, and attack of any kind are all unknown. |
| Tx:23.25 | in misery. For now He has become the “enemy” Who caused it and to | Whom appeal is useless. Nor can salvation lie within the Son, whose |
| Tx:23.30 | brother's body, hidden there in malice and in hatred for the one to | whom the gift belongs. He would deprive you of the secret ingredient |
| Tx:24.5 | justify attack? For who could hate someone whose Self is his and | whom He knows? Only the special could have enemies, for they are |
| Tx:24.12 | can perceive. This does it seek, and this it looks upon. And always | whom it thus diminishes would be your savior, had you not chosen to |
| Tx:24.14 | sons are many, never one, each one in exile from himself and Him of | Whom they are a part. Nor do they love the Oneness Which created them |
| Tx:24.39 | you saved what you appointed to be your savior and crucified the one | whom God has given you instead. So are you bound with him, for you |
| Tx:24.45 | His holiness shows you Himself in him whose hand you hold and | whom you lead to Him. And what you see is like yourself. For what but |
| Tx:24.54 | your salvation and the world's, is set the shining memory of Him in | Whom your brother lives and you along with him. Let not your eyes be |
| Tx:24.57 | along with you. And both shall see God's glory in His Son, | whom you mistook as flesh and bound to laws that have no power over |
| Tx:24.62 | you have made to be your strength? What is this child of earth on | whom such love is lavished? What is this parody of God's creation |
| Tx:24.71 | evil. Yet your specialness whispers, “Here is my own beloved son, in | whom I am well pleased.” Thus does the “son” become the means to |
| Tx:25.36 | the Will of God and of His Son that Heaven be restored to him for | whom it was created as his only home? Nothing before and nothing |
| Tx:25.66 | justice, being blind, is satisfied by being paid, it matters not by | whom. Can this be justice? God knows not of this. But justice does He |
| Tx:25.76 | he is deprived. And so must he be envious and try to take away from | whom he judges. He is not impartial and cannot fairly see another's |
| Tx:26.3 | the limits of a body is to impose these limits on each brother | whom you see. For you must see him as you see yourself. |
| Tx:26.15 | be resolved. For there are those you want to suffer loss and no one | whom you wish to be preserved from sacrifice entirely. Consider once |
| Tx:26.45 | he could remain content. Yet God has given him a better Friend in | Whom all power in earth and Heaven rests. The one illusion that you |
| Tx:26.46 | no illusion friend, for if you do, it can but take the place of Him | whom God has called your Friend. And it is He who is your only Friend |
| Tx:26.46 | He brings you gifts that are not of this world, and only He to | whom they have been given can make sure that you receive them. He |
| Tx:26.64 | of its effects, and hate is answered in the name of love. To you to | whom it has been given to save the Son of God from crucifixion and |
| Tx:26.77 | Think but how holy you must be from | whom the Voice for God calls lovingly unto your brother, that you may |
| Tx:26.84 | Now is the temple of the Living God rebuilt as host again to Him by | Whom it was created. Where He dwells, His Son dwells with Him, never |
| Tx:27.15 | cannot forgive their brothers and themselves as well. For no one in | whom true forgiveness reigns can suffer. He holds not the proof of |
| Tx:27.21 | Who then fears healing? Only those to | whom their brother's sacrifice and pain are seen to represent their |
| Tx:27.42 | answers questions truly asked. The questions of the world but ask of | whom is sacrifice demanded, asking not if sacrifice is meaningful at |
| Tx:27.42 | sacrifice is meaningful at all. And so unless the answer tells “of | whom,” it will remain unrecognized, unheard, and thus the question is |
| Tx:27.53 | Peace be to you to | whom is healing offered. And you will learn that peace is given you |
| Tx:27.76 | He represents his Father, | Whom you see as offering both life and death to you. Brother, He |
| Tx:28.12 | He to | Whom time is given offers thanks for every quiet instant given Him. |
| Tx:28.12 | His memory allowed to offer all its treasures to the Son of God, for | whom they have been kept. How gladly does He offer them unto the one |
| Tx:28.12 | they have been kept. How gladly does He offer them unto the one for | whom He has been given them! And His Creator shares His thanks |
| Tx:29.17 | than all He really is. What, then, becomes of you, for it is you of | whom the sacrifice is asked? For He is told that part of Him belongs |
| Tx:29.23 | God's Witness has set forth the gentle way of kindness to God's Son. | Whom you forgive is given power to forgive you your illusions. By |
| Tx:29.34 | glory of His gift to you. Behold His Son, His perfect gift in | whom his Father shines forever and to whom is all creation given as |
| Tx:29.34 | His Son, His perfect gift in whom his Father shines forever and to | whom is all creation given as his own. Because he has it is it given |
| Tx:29.59 | only question which has many answers, each depending on the one of | whom the question has been asked. The world believes in idols. No one |
| Tx:30.36 | then God Himself could not be free. For what is done to him | whom God so loves is done to God Himself. Think not He wills to bind |
| Tx:30.47 | the Thought God holds of you has never left the mind of its Creator | Whom it knows, as its Creator knows that it is there. |
| Tx:31.9 | His Son is innocent can He be Love. For God were fear indeed if he | whom He created innocent could be a slave to guilt. God's perfect Son |
| Tx:31.52 | generated by your brother, who was there to make the other? And from | whom must something be kept hidden? If the world be evil, there is |
| Tx:31.77 | a partial savior would be one who is but partly saved. The holy ones | whom God has given each of you to save are everyone you meet or look |
| Tx:31.82 | seeing eyes and offers them forgiveness with his own. Can you to | whom God says, “Release My Son!” be tempted not to listen when you |
| Tx:31.82 | My Son!” be tempted not to listen when you learn that it is you for | whom He asks release? And what but this is what this course would |

| W1:14.6 | anything you are afraid might happen to you or to anyone about | whom you are concerned. In each case, name the “disaster” quite |
| W1:39.4 | is the salvation of the world and your own. How could you to | whom your holiness belongs be excluded from it? God does not know |
| W1:46.3 | you do so and spend a minute or two in searching your mind for those | whom you have not forgiven. It does not matter “how much” you have |
| W1:68.6 | extended practice period by searching your mind for those against | whom you hold what you regard as major grievances. Some of these will |
| W1:68.6 | love. It will quickly become apparent that there is no one against | whom you do not cherish grievances of some sort. This has left you |
| W1:71.11 | do? Where would You have me go? What would You have me say, and to | whom? |
| W1:72.15 | of truth. Be certain, then, that the answer will be true because of | Whom you ask. Whenever you feel your confidence wane and your hope of |
| W1:78.5 | you think you love who angers you; someone you call a friend, but | whom you see as difficult at times or hard to please—demanding, |
| W1:78.6 | his name has crossed your mind already. He will be the one of | whom we ask God's Son be shown to us. Through seeing him behind the |
| W1:99.7 | Salvation is your function with the One to | Whom the plan was given. Now are you entrusted with this plan, along |
| W1:100.2 | Your joy must be complete to let His plan be understood by those to | whom He sends you. They will see their function in your shining face |
| W1:108.12 | this is what you asked. It might be helpful, too, to think of one to | whom to give your gifts. He represents the others, and through him |
| W1:121.9 | today that they are one through practicing forgiving toward one | whom you think of as an enemy and one whom you consider as a friend. |
| W1:121.9 | forgiving toward one whom you think of as an enemy and one | whom you consider as a friend. And as you learn to see them both as |
| W1:123.3 | far transcends your meager gifts and petty judgments of the one | whom God established as His Son. |
| W1:123.7 | yours to Him for 15 minutes twice today. And you will realize to | Whom you offer thanks, and Whom He thanks as you are thanking Him. |
| W1:123.7 | twice today. And you will realize to Whom you offer thanks, and | Whom He thanks as you are thanking Him. This holy half an hour given |
| W1:126.3 | merely to point out that you are better, on a higher plane than he | whom you forgive. He has not earned your charitable tolerance, which |
| W1:137.10 | be healed, you see all those around you or who cross your mind or | whom you touch or those who seem to have no contact with you healed |
| W1:139.3 | you can be alive instead? Who is the doubter? What is it he doubts? | Whom does he question? Who can answer him? He merely states that he |
| W1:151.8 | only honor Him, rejoicing in His perfect, everlasting sinlessness. | Whom He has judged can only laugh at guilt, unwilling now to play |
| W1:154.2 | and equally aware of where they can be best applied, for what, to | whom, and when, He chooses and accepts your part for you. He does not |
| W1:154.5 | he brings. It is enough that he accept it, give it to the ones for | whom it is appointed, and fulfill his role in its delivery. If he |
| W1:154.11 | us. He needs our hands to hold His messages and carry them to those | whom He appoints. He needs our feet to bring us where He wills, that |
| W1:158.7 | has one law. It does not look upon a body and mistake it for the Son | whom God created. It beholds a light beyond the body, an idea beyond |
| W1:158.10 | light in him, your sins have been forgiven by yourself. Each brother | whom you meet today provides another chance to let Christ's vision |
| W1:160.2 | truth regards as senseless. Stranger yet, he does not recognize to | whom he comes and yet maintains his home belongs to him, while he is |
| W1:160.8 | a stranger to your Father, nor is your Creator stranger made to you. | Whom God has joined remains forever one, at home in Him, no stranger |
| W1:161.9 | This do the body's eyes behold in one | whom Heaven cherishes, the angels love, and God created perfect. This |
| W1:161.15 | And He will answer | Whom you called upon, for He will hear the Voice of God in you and |
| W1:161.15 | hear the Voice of God in you and answer in your own. Behold him now | whom you had seen as merely flesh and bone and recognize that Christ |
| W1:166.8 | then? And what becomes of all the tragedy you sought to make for him | whom God intended only joy? |
| W1:167.11 | we share with Him, with all creation, with their thoughts as well, | whom He created in a unity of life that cannot separate in death and |
| W1:168.5 | not our own acceptance. We acknowledge our mistakes, but He to | Whom all error is unknown is yet the One Who answers our mistakes by |
| W1:190.2 | of abandonment by an eternal Love which could not leave the Son | whom It created out of love. |
| W1:193.4 | The One | Whom God created to replace the foolish thoughts which crept into the |
| W1:196.8 | You do not now believe that fear is caused without. And God, | Whom you had thought to banish, can be welcomed back within the holy |
| W1:R6.11 | Him the whole review we now begin, and let us also not forget to | Whom it has been given as we practice day by day, advancing toward |
| W1:211.1 | and in true humility, I seek God's glory to behold it in the Son | whom He created as my Self. I am not a body. I am free. For I am |
| W1:217.1 | but myself? And how but through salvation can I find the Self to | Whom my thanks are due? I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as |
| W2:I.9 | We had a wish that God would fail to have the Son | whom He created for Himself. We wanted God to change Himself and be |
| W2:WF.5 | given Him by God. Now must you share His function and forgive | whom He has saved, whose sinlessness He sees, and whom He honors as |
| W2:WF.5 | and forgive whom He has saved, whose sinlessness He sees, and | whom He honors as the Son of God. |
| W2:239.1 | thankful for the gifts our Father gave us. Can we see in those with | whom He shares His glory any trace of sin and guilt? And can it be |
| W2:WIW.4 | of God. And all perception can be given a new purpose by the One | Whom God appointed Savior to the world. Follow His light and see the |
| W2:253.2 | You are the Self | Whom You created Son, creating like Yourself and one with You. My |
| W2:256.1 | yet remain asleep in heavy clouds of doubt about the holiness of him | whom God created sinless? Here we can but dream. But we can dream we |
| W2:256.1 | Here we can but dream. But we can dream we have forgiven him in | whom all sin remains impossible, and it is this we choose to dream |
| W2:261.2 | home to You today. I choose to be as You created me and find the Son | whom You created as my Self. |
| W2:270.2 | His sight, we offer healing to the world through Him, the holy Son | whom God created whole, the holy Son whom God created one. |
| W2:270.2 | world through Him, the holy Son whom God created whole, the holy Son | whom God created one. |
| W2:WIC.5 | perception or of time, or anything except the holy Self, the Christ | Whom God created as His Son. |
| W2:275.2 | nothing. For Your Voice will tell me what to do and where to go, to | whom to speak, and what to say to him, what thoughts to think, what |
| W2:279.2 | promises today and give my faith to them. My Father loves the Son | Whom He created as His own. Would You withhold the gifts You gave to |
| W2:280.1 | Whom God created limitless is free. I can invent imprisonment for | |
| W2:282.1 | living in the joy of life. And this the choice to recognize the Self | Whom God created as the Son He loves and Who remains my one Reality. |
| W2:302.1 | and we can see. We thought we suffered. But we had forgot the Son | whom You created. Now we see that darkness is our own imagining and |
| W2:WILJ.4 | wipe away all tears, and gently waken from his dream of pain the Son | whom God acknowledges as His. Be not afraid of this. Salvation asks |
| W2:311.2 | him, and we cannot judge. And so we let Your Love decide what he | whom You created as Your Son must be. |
| W2:320.1 | before it all the strength and love in earth and Heaven. I am he to | whom all this is given. I am he in whom the power of my Father's Will |
| W2:320.1 | in earth and Heaven. I am he to whom all this is given. I am he in | whom the power of my Father's Will abides. |
| W2:341.1 | Father, Your Son is holy. I am he on | whom You smile in love and tenderness so deep and dear and still the |
| W2:344.1 | be. Who can share a dream? And what can an illusion offer me? Yet he | whom I forgive will give me gifts beyond the worth of anything on |
| W2:WAI.5 | of God who speak for Him, and carrying His Word to everyone | whom He has sent to us, we learn that it is written on our hearts. |
| W2:E.2 | still, for it cannot be possible to change the course of those | whom God has called to Him. Therefore, obey your will and follow Him |
| W2:E.2 | whom God has called to Him. Therefore, obey your will and follow Him | Whom you accepted as your Voice, to speak of what you really want and |
| M:2.1 | they are ready to fulfill theirs. Time waits on his choice but not | whom he will serve. When he is ready to learn, the opportunities to |
| M:3.1 | both can look upon the Son of God as sinless. There is no one from | whom a teacher of God cannot learn, so there is no one whom he cannot |
| M:3.1 | no one from whom a teacher of God cannot learn, so there is no one | whom he cannot teach. However, from a practical point of view, he |
| M:4.15 | easy. To those who would do harm, it is impossible. To those to | whom harm has no meaning, it is merely natural. What choice but this |
| M:4.20 | —nothing that did not serve to benefit the world as well as him to | whom it seemed to happen. Perhaps it was not understood at the time. |
| M:7.2 | has thus become untenable, for he is offering hate to one to | whom he offered love. This is impossible. Having offered love, only |
| M:10.3 | perception, so that his judgment would be wholly fair to everyone on | whom it rests, now and in the future. Who is in a position to do |
| M:13.2 | Power, fame, money, physical pleasure—who is the hero to | whom all these things belong? Could they mean anything except to a |
| M:16.1 | they can learn the lessons for the day together. Not one is absent | whom he needs; not one is sent without a learning goal already set, |
| M:16.7 | need make no distinctions among the problems he perceives, for He to | Whom he turns with all of them recognizes no order of difficulty in |
| M:18.5 | condemns himself. How can he then condemn anyone? And who is there | whom his forgiveness can fail to heal? |
| M:26.2 | appear when and where it is helpful for them to do so. To those to | whom such appearances would be frightening, they give their ideas. No |
| M:26.2 | their ideas. No one can call on them in vain. Nor is there anyone of | whom they are unaware. All needs are known to them, and all mistakes |
| M:29.2 | Which is for | whom? Who would profit more from prayers alone? Who needs but a |
| M:29.3 | so, making fear inevitable. To return the function to the One to | Whom it belongs is thus the escape from fear. And it is this that |

| Tx:22.36 | is your forgiveness. Can you be saved by making sinful the one | whose holiness is your salvation? |
| Tx:22.42 | that seems to rise between you. So shall you walk the world with me, | whose message has not yet been given to everyone. For you are here to |
| Tx:22.52 | Where freedom of the body has been chosen, the mind is used as means | whose value lies in its ability to contrive ways to achieve the |
| Tx:22.57 | completely undismayed? God would let nothing interfere with those | whose wills are His[. And they will recognize their wills are His, |
| Tx:22.61 | or yourself than to attack the great Creator of the universe, | whose power you know. |
| Tx:23.25 | and to Whom appeal is useless. Nor can salvation lie within the Son, | whose every aspect seems to be at war with Him and justified in its |
| Tx:24.5 | His Son. What else could justify attack? For who could hate someone | whose Self is his and whom He knows? Only the special could have |
| Tx:24.25 | The key you threw away God gave your brother, | whose holy hands would offer it to you when you were ready to accept |
| Tx:24.31 | release your brother from the depths of hell, you have forgiven Him | Whose Will it is you rest forever in the arms of peace in perfect |
| Tx:24.45 | you saw within yourself. His holiness shows you Himself in him | whose hand you hold and whom you lead to Him. And what you see is |
| Tx:25.1 | in death. No more can you. Christ is within a frame of holiness | whose only purpose is that He may be made manifest to those who know |
| Tx:25.53 | of their thought that makes the Son a co-creator with the mind | Whose Thought created him. And if he chooses to believe one thought |
| Tx:25.55 | way to sanity. But sin is equally insane within the sight of love, | whose gentle eyes would look beyond the madness and rest peacefully |
| Tx:25.56 | requires special choice. Nor can this choice be made by the insane, | whose problem is their choices are not free and made with reason in |
| Tx:25.75 | Your special function is a call to Him that He may smile on you | whose sinlessness He shares. His understanding will be yours. And so |
| Tx:26.38 | the way in the direction of the past but sets you on a mission | whose accomplishment can only be unreal. Such is the justice your |
| Tx:27.9 | in itself. For it becomes the symbol of reproach, the sign of guilt | whose consequences still are there to see, so that the cause can |

| Tx:1.87 | Man was not created by his own free | will alone. Only what he creates is his to decide. The basic decision |
| Tx:1.88 | that he has everything, individual contributions to the Sonship | will no longer be necessary. When the Atonement has been completed, |

| Tx:1.96 | use them for themselves. Since this makes it inevitable that they | will extend them to others, a strong chain of Atonement is welded. |
| Tx:1.97 | The power and strength of man's creative | will must be understood before the real meaning of denial can be |
| Tx:1.101 | Believe this and you | will be free. Only God can establish this solution, and this faith is |

| Tx:1.107 | himself. Man believes in what he creates. If he creates miracles, he | will be equally strong in his belief in them. The strength of his |
| Tx:1.107 | equally strong in his belief in them. The strength of his conviction | will then sustain the belief of the miracle receiver. And fantasies |

| Tx:2.6 | If you consider carefully what this entails, the following | will become quite apparent: |
| Tx:2.12 | mind. The latter required the endowment of man by God with free | will because all loving creation is freely given. Nothing in these |
| Tx:2.14 | Spirit to him. In reality, this is his only choice, because his free | will was given him for his own joy in creating the perfect. |
| Tx:2.18 | If you are afraid, you are valuing wrongly. Human understanding | will inevitably value wrongly and, by endowing all human thoughts |
| Tx:2.18 | value wrongly and, by endowing all human thoughts with equal power, | will inevitably destroy peace. That is why the Bible speaks of “the |
| Tx:2.21 | injustice if that is what his mind creates. You are afraid of God's | Will because you have used your own will, which He created in the |

| Tx:2.21 | which was mentioned before, is “are of one mind or will.” When the | will of the Sonship and the Father are one, their perfect accord is |
| Tx:2.22 | Denial of error is a powerful defense of truth. You | will note that we have been shifting the emphasis from the negative |
| Tx:2.22 | denial of error frees the mind and reestablishes the freedom of the | will. When the will is really free, it cannot miscreate because it |
| Tx:2.22 | frees the mind and reestablishes the freedom of the will. When the | will is really free, it cannot miscreate because it recognizes only |
| Tx:2.35 | his own treasure. You do not have to tell him to do so because he | will do it automatically. The real questions still remain. What do |
| Tx:2.35 | them into all your actions as the true criteria for behavior, I | will have little difficulty in clarifying the means. You have not |
| Tx:2.35 | lot of time if you do not extend this step unduly. The correct focus | will shorten it immeasurably. |
| Tx:2.41 | to time. Until the Atonement is finished, its various phases | will proceed in time, but the whole Atonement stands at time's end. |
| Tx:2.42 | This is what is meant by “the meek shall inherit the earth.” They | will literally take it over because of their strength. A two-way |
| Tx:2.47 | were created for this purpose. This appears to contradict free | will because of the inevitability of the final decision. If you |
| Tx:2.47 | the final decision. If you review the idea carefully, however, you | will realize that this is not true. Everything is limited in some way |
| Tx:2.47 | is limited in some way by the manner of its creation. Free | will can temporize and is capable of enormous procrastination. But it |
| Tx:2.48 | The misuse of | will engenders a situation which in the extreme becomes altogether |
| Tx:2.49 | to truth. Because of the real strength of Its vision, It pulls the | will into Its service and impels the mind to concur. This |
| Tx:2.49 | impels the mind to concur. This reestablishes the true power of the | will and makes it increasingly unable to tolerate delay. The mind |
| Tx:2.51 | of healing the separation. The Atonement is the guarantee that they | will ultimately succeed. |
| Tx:2.52 | The emphasis | will now be on healing. The miracle is the means, the Atonement is |
| Tx:2.59 | manner in which it is expressed. In fact, if it is truly used, it | will inevitably be expressed in whatever way is most helpful to the |
| Tx:2.63 | however, that the miracle worker be in his right mind or he | will be unable to reestablish right-mindedness in someone else. |
| Tx:2.67 | entails fear is because man is afraid of what his Spiritual eye | will see. We said before that the Spiritual eye cannot see error and |
| Tx:2.68 | in what his physical sight tells him, all his corrective behavior | will be misdirected. The real vision is obscured, because man cannot |
| Tx:2.72 | me from controlling it. The correction is therefore a matter of your | will, because its presence shows that you have raised the unimportant |
| Tx:2.72 | a higher level than it warrants. You have thus brought it under your | will, where it does not belong. This means that you feel responsible |
| Tx:2.74 | must change your mind, not your behavior, and this is a matter of | will. |
| Tx:2.75 | error does. The correction is always the same. Before you | will to do anything, ask me if your will is in accord with mine. If |
| Tx:2.75 | is always the same. Before you will to do anything, ask me if your | will is in accord with mine. If you are sure that it is, there will |
| Tx:2.75 | your will is in accord with mine. If you are sure that it is, there | will be no fear. |
| Tx:2.76 | Fear is always a sign of strain, which arises whenever the | will to do conflicts with what you do. This situation arises in two |
| Tx:2.77 | First, you can | will to do conflicting things, either simultaneously or successively. |
| Tx:2.77 | behavior, which is intolerable to yourself because the part of the | will that wants to do something else is outraged. |
| Tx:2.79 | In both cases, the | will and the behavior are out of accord, resulting in a situation in |
| Tx:2.79 | resulting in a situation in which you are doing what you do not | will. This arouses a sense of coercion, which usually produces rage. |
| Tx:2.80 | there is fear, it is because you have not made up your mind. Your | will is split, and your behavior inevitably becomes erratic. |
| Tx:2.80 | from the first to the second type of strain described above but | will not obliterate the fear. It is possible to reach a state in |
| Tx:2.80 | the fear. It is possible to reach a state in which you bring your | will under my guidance without much conscious effort, but this |
| Tx:2.80 | have not developed dependably as yet. God cannot ask more than you | will. The strength to do comes from your own undivided will to do. |
| Tx:2.80 | more than you will. The strength to do comes from your own undivided | will to do. There is no strain in doing God's Will as soon as you |
| Tx:2.80 | your own undivided will to do. There is no strain in doing God's | Will as soon as you recognize that it is also your own. |
| Tx:2.81 | lesson here is quite simple but particularly apt to be overlooked. I | will therefore repeat it, urging you to listen. Only your mind can |
| Tx:2.87 | creation. As long as you recognize only the need for the remedy, you | will remain fearful. However, as soon as you remedy it, you have also |
| Tx:2.88 | It never sleeps. Every instant it is creating and always as you | will. Many of your ordinary expressions reflect this. For example, |
| Tx:2.88 | a thought,” you imply that if you do not think about something, it | will have no effect on you. And this is true enough. |
| Tx:2.89 | to grow when you say it, because you do not really think that you | will. |
| Tx:2.94 | of training. I cannot let them leave their minds unguarded, or they | will not be able to help me. Miracle working entails a full |
| Tx:2.94 | of thought and real avoidance of miscreation. Otherwise, a miracle | will be necessary to set the mind itself straight, a circular process |
| Tx:2.103 | As soon as a state of readiness occurs, there is usually some | will to accomplish, but this is by no means necessarily undivided. |
| Tx:2.103 | The state does not imply more than a potential for a shift of | will. |
| Tx:2.104 | case this be misunderstood to imply that an enormous amount of time | will be necessary between readiness and mastery, let me remind you |
| Tx:2.105 | where the belief in magic in some form is virtually inevitable. His | will to create was given him by his own Creator, Who was expressing |
| Tx:2.105 | create was given him by his own Creator, Who was expressing the same | will in His creation. Since creative ability rests in the mind, |
| Tx:2.105 | in the mind, everything that man creates is necessarily a matter of | will. It also follows that whatever he creates is real in his own |
| Tx:2.106 | separation occurred over many millions of years, the Last Judgment | will extend over a similarly long period and perhaps an even longer |
| Tx:2.108 | generally thought of as a procedure undertaken by God. Actually it | will be undertaken by man with my help. It is a final healing rather |
| Tx:2.109 | a process of right evaluation. It simply means that finally all men | will come to understand what is worthy and what is not. After this, |
| Tx:2.109 | is made, however, the vacillations between free and imprisoned | will cannot but continue. The first step toward freedom must entail a |
| Tx:2.109 | sense and reflects the true meaning of the Apocalypse. Man | will ultimately look upon his own creations and will to preserve only |
| Tx:2.109 | the Apocalypse. Man will ultimately look upon his own creations and | will to preserve only what is good, just as God Himself looked upon |
| Tx:2.110 | At this point, the | will can begin to look with love on its own creations because of |
| Tx:2.110 | on its own creations because of their great worthiness. The mind | will inevitably disown its miscreations which, without the mind's |
| Tx:2.110 | inevitably disown its miscreations which, without the mind's belief, | will no longer exist. The term “Last Judgment” is frightening not |

| Tx:3.1 | use of it. However, as you study these earlier sections, you | will begin to see some of their implications, which will be amplified |
| Tx:3.1 | sections, you will begin to see some of their implications, which | will be amplified considerably later on. |
| Tx:3.2 | to which we have already referred and which so many people hold. You | will remember that we said that awe is inappropriate in connection |
| Tx:3.3 | unwise to start on these steps without careful preparation or awe | will be confused with fear, and the experience will be more traumatic |
| Tx:3.3 | preparation or awe will be confused with fear, and the experience | will be more traumatic than beatific. Healing is of God in the end. |

| Tx:3.29 | are willing to validate what is true in everything you perceive, you | will make it true for you. Truth overcomes all error. This means that |
| Tx:3.33 | mind is closed because it believes the future and present | will be the same. This establishes an unchanged state or stasis. It |

| Tx:3.47 | merely by establishing the fact that it is not there. The truth | will always overcome error in this sense. This is not an active |

| Tx:3.48 | powerlessness of the body and the power of the mind. By uniting my | will with that of my Creator, I naturally remembered the Soul and its |
| Tx:3.49 | I cannot unite your | will with God's for you, but I can erase all misperceptions from your |
| Tx:3.49 | for you, but I can erase all misperceptions from your mind if you | will bring it under my guidance. Only your misperceptions stand in |
| Tx:3.50 | of the celestial speed-up. Strong wills can do this now, and you | will find rest for your Souls. God knows you only in peace, and this |
| Tx:3.51 | after the separation. No one has been sure of anything since. You | will also remember, however, that I made it clear that the |
| Tx:3.51 | the return to knowledge, which was accomplished by the union of my | will with the Father's. We can now make a distinction which will |
| Tx:3.51 | of my will with the Father's. We can now make a distinction which | will greatly facilitate clarity in our subsequent statements. |

| Tx:3.63 | judgment. When you recognize what you and your brothers are, you | will realize that judging them in any way is without meaning. In |
| Tx:3.66 | to be the author of reality, which is totally impossible anyway, you | will insist on holding onto judgment. You will also use the term with |
| Tx:3.66 | impossible anyway, you will insist on holding onto judgment. You | will also use the term with considerable fear, believing that |

| Tx:3.71 | way. If this is the result of his own free will, he must regard his | will as if it were not free, or the obviously circular reasoning |
| Tx:3.71 | reasoning involved in his position would be quite apparent. Free | will must lead to freedom. Judgment always imprisons because it |

| Tx:3.73 | the power of your minds. To do so is to deceive yourself, and this | will hurt you because you know the strength of the mind. You also |
| Tx:3.78 | lives and see what the devil has made. But know that this making | will surely dissolve in the light of truth, because its foundation is |

| Tx:4.4 | compulsions can be endless unless they are given up by an act of | will. Do not make the pathetic human error of “clinging to the old |

| Tx:4.4 | to undertake, and if you will read these lessons carefully, they | will help to prepare you to undertake it. |
| Tx:4.7 | same order of learning, and unless they share their lessons, they | will lack conviction. A good teacher must believe in the ideas which |
| Tx:4.8 | that if you allow no change to enter into your ego, your Soul | will find peace. This profound confusion is possible only if one |
| Tx:4.8 | and God's Self are in opposition. They are opposed in creation, in | will, and in outcome. They are fundamentally irreconcilable because |
| Tx:4.11 | of guardian[s] of your thought system[s] and open [them] to me, I | will correct [them] very gently and lead you home. Every good teacher |
| Tx:4.11 | hopes to give his students so much of his own thinking that they | will one day no longer need him. This is the one real goal of the |
| Tx:4.11 | the one real goal of the parent, teacher, and therapist. This goal | will not be achieved by those who believe that they will lose their |
| Tx:4.11 | This goal will not be achieved by those who believe that they | will lose their child or pupil or patient if they succeed. It is |
| Tx:4.12 | at all. If you perceive a teacher as merely a “larger ego,” you | will be afraid because to enlarge an ego is to increase separation |
| Tx:4.12 | because to enlarge an ego is to increase separation anxiety. I | will teach with you and live with you if you will think with me, but |
| Tx:4.12 | separation anxiety. I will teach with you and live with you if you | will think with me, but my goal will always be to absolve you finally |
| Tx:4.12 | with you and live with you if you will think with me, but my goal | will always be to absolve you finally from the need for a teacher. |
| Tx:4.13 | not be able to devote myself to teaching if I believed this, and you | will not be a devoted teacher as long as you maintain it. I am |
| Tx:4.14 | established by God. As long as you dispute this, everything you do | will be fearful, particularly any situation which lends itself to the |
| Tx:4.15 | into forms of praise for itself in order to overcome its doubts. It | will be doubtful forever, or rather as long as you believe in it. You |
| Tx:4.16 | have chosen to be afraid instead of meeting it. When you awaken you | will not be able to understand this because it is literally |
| Tx:4.17 | afraid of the Soul's joy because, once you have experienced it, you | will withdraw all protection from the ego and become totally without |
| Tx:4.18 | chosen to leave it empty by their own dispossession. Yet His home | will stand forever and is ready for you when you choose to enter it. |
| Tx:4.20 | I | will substitute for your ego if you wish but never for your Soul. A |
| Tx:4.27 | is not at all surprising. In fact it duplicates in many ways how he | will one day react to his real creations, which are as timeless as he |
| Tx:4.28 | the teacher of the ego.] When teaching is no longer necessary, you | will merely know God. Belief that there is another way is the |
| Tx:4.29 | necessarily conflicted, because all attitudes are ego-based. This | will not last. Be patient awhile and remember that the outcome is as |
| Tx:4.30 | the concepts involved. To the ego, to give anything implies that you | will do without it. When you associate giving with sacrifice, then, |
| Tx:4.35 | religiously ego-oriented believe that the Soul existed before and | will continue to exist afterwards, after a temporary lapse in ego |
| Tx:4.35 | a temporary lapse in ego life. Some actually believe that the Soul | will be punished for this lapse, even though in reality it could not |
| Tx:4.36 | one direction in which it can move. The direction which the mind | will take is always automatic, because it cannot but be dictated by |

| Tx:4.42 | your Soul will never be co-creators, but your Soul and your Creator | will always be. Be confident that your creations are as safe as you |
| Tx:4.43 | The Kingdom is perfectly united and perfectly protected, and the ego | will not prevail against it. Amen. |
| Tx:4.44 | in moments of temptation. It is a Declaration of Independence. You | will find it very helpful if you understand it fully. |
| Tx:4.49 | self you have made. You project onto your own idea of yourself the | will to separate, which conflicts with the love you feel for what you |
| Tx:4.50 | Love | will enter immediately into any mind which truly wants it, but it |
| Tx:4.50 | which is so different from anything the ego can offer that you | will never recover. The word “recover” is used quite literally here— |
| Tx:4.50 | never recover. The word “recover” is used quite literally here—you | will never be able to cover or hide again. It is necessary to repeat |
| Tx:4.51 | No force except your own | will is strong enough or worthy enough to guide you. In this you are |
| Tx:4.52 | step around it. Watch your minds for the scraps of meanness or you | will be unable to ask me to do so. I can help you only as our Father |
| Tx:4.52 | to ask me to do so. I can help you only as our Father created us. I | will love you and honor you and maintain complete respect for what |
| Tx:4.52 | you and maintain complete respect for what you have made, but I | will neither honor it nor love it unless it is true. |
| Tx:4.53 | I | will never forsake you any more than God will, but I must wait as |
| Tx:4.53 | I will never forsake you any more than God | will, but I must wait as long as you choose to forsake yourself. |
| Tx:4.53 | forsake yourself. Because I wait in love and not in impatience, you | will surely ask me truly. I will come in response to a single |
| Tx:4.53 | wait in love and not in impatience, you will surely ask me truly. I | will come in response to a single unequivocal call. Watch carefully |
| Tx:4.53 | about this, for we must hide nothing from each other. If you | will really try to do this, you have taken the first step toward |
| Tx:4.53 | first step toward preparing your mind for the Holy One to enter. We | will prepare for this together, for once He has come, you will be |
| Tx:4.53 | enter. We will prepare for this together, for once He has come, you | will be ready to help me make other minds ready for Him. How long |
| Tx:4.53 | will be ready to help me make other minds ready for Him. How long | will you deny Him His Kingdom? |
| Tx:4.62 | you nothing. When you have given up this voluntary dispiriting, you | will see how your mind can focus and rise above fatigue and heal. Yet |
| Tx:4.64 | away and releasing the strength of God into everything you think and | will and do. Do not settle for anything less than this, and refuse to |
| Tx:4.65 | in perfect light. To the ego's dark glass you need but say, “I | will not look there because I know these images are not true.” Then |
| Tx:4.66 | first, and I have called you to join with me in the second. If you | will think over your lives, you will see how carefully the |
| Tx:4.66 | join with me in the second. If you will think over your lives, you | will see how carefully the preparations were made. I am in charge of |
| Tx:4.67 | confused to recognize your own hope. I was not mistaken. Your minds | will elect to join with mine, and together we are invincible. |
| Tx:4.68 | You | will yet come together in my name, and your sanity will be restored. |
| Tx:4.68 | You will yet come together in my name, and your sanity | will be restored. I raised the dead by knowing that life is an |
| Tx:4.68 | an order of difficulty in miracles; you do. I have called, and you | will answer. I know that miracles are natural because they are |
| Tx:4.74 | many of the things you want to learn are chosen because their value | will not last. The ego thinks it is an advantage not to commit itself |
| Tx:4.78 | What is the purpose? Whatever it is, you cannot doubt that it | will channelize your efforts automatically. When you make a decision |
| Tx:4.78 | you have made a decision about your future effort, a decision which | will remain in effect unless you change the decision. |
| Tx:4.82 | is a constant state. It is as true now as it ever was or ever | will be because it implies no change at all. It is not a continuum |
| Tx:4.84 | is ego-directed. We cannot safely let it go at that, however, or you | will regard yourselves as necessarily conflicted as long as you are |
| Tx:4.85 | life has continued without interruption and has been and always | will be totally unaffected by your attempts to dissociate. The ratio |
| Tx:4.86 | it forever. You have very little trust in me as yet, but it | will increase as you turn more and more often to me instead of your |
| Tx:4.86 | and more often to me instead of your egos for guidance. The results | will convince you increasingly that your choice in turning to me is |
| Tx:4.89 | My trust in you is greater than yours in me at the moment, but it | will not always be that way. Your mission is very simple. You have |
| Tx:4.89 | my trust and always approves my Atonement decisions because my | will is never out of accord with His. I have told you before that I |
| Tx:4.89 | men. My chosen receiving and sending channels cannot fail because I | will lend them my strength as long as theirs is wanting. |
| Tx:4.90 | I | will go with you to the Holy One, and through my perception, He can |
| Tx:4.90 | little gap. Your gratitude to each other is the only gift I want. I | will bring it to God for you, knowing that to know your brother is to |
| Tx:4.91 | the Sonship because they are disengaging themselves from me. God | will come to you only as you will give Him to your brothers. Learn |
| Tx:4.91 | are disengaging themselves from me. God will come to you only as you | will give Him to your brothers. Learn first of them, and you will be |
| Tx:4.91 | as you will give Him to your brothers. Learn first of them, and you | will be ready to hear God as you hear them. That is because the |
| Tx:4.93 | yourselves the other way around. A far greater reward, however, | will break through any conditioning if it is repeatedly offered |
| Tx:4.95 | communication is controlled by its need to protect itself, and it | will disrupt communication when it experiences threat. While this is |
| Tx:4.95 | which must be disrupted, the response of breaking communication | will nevertheless be to a specific person or persons. |
| Tx:4.96 | kind of generalization which is really not abstract at all. It | will respond in certain specific ways to all stimuli which it |
| Tx:4.97 | This communication is the | Will of God. Creation and communication are synonymous. God created |
| Tx:4.97 | it forever as a channel for the reception of His Mind and | Will. Since only beings of a like order can truly communicate, His |
| Tx:4.102 | can hurt them. Their helpfulness is their praise of God, and He | will return their praise of Him because they are like Him, and they |
| Tx:4.102 | whom I direct until we are all united in the joy of the Kingdom. I | will direct you to wherever you can be truly helpful and to whoever |
| Tx:4.104 | natural impulse to help, placing you under the strain of divided | will. You may then be tempted to withdraw to allow your ego to |
| Tx:4.106 | have to worry about what to say or what to do because He Who sent me | will direct me. I am content to be wherever He wishes, knowing He |
| Tx:4.106 | content to be wherever He wishes, knowing He goes there with me. I | will be healed as I let Him teach me to heal. |
| Tx:5.6 | If you think about it, you | will see that, while this kind of thinking is totally alien to having |
| Tx:5.10 | apart from the Father and from the Son. I myself said, “If I go I | will send you another comforter, and He will abide with you.” The |
| Tx:5.10 | I myself said, “If I go I will send you another comforter, and He | will abide with you.” The Holy Spirit is a difficult concept to grasp |
| Tx:5.17 | it to what the Children of God were before healing was needed and | will be when they have been healed. This alteration of the time |
| Tx:5.17 | The Holy Spirit is the motivation for miracle-mindedness, the | will to heal the separation by letting it go. This will is in you, |
| Tx:5.17 | the will to heal the separation by letting it go. This | will is in you, because God placed it in your mind, and although you |
| Tx:5.18 | God Himself keeps this | will alive by transmitting it from His Mind to yours as long as there |
| Tx:5.18 | and partly yours. The miracle itself is just this fusion or union of | will between Father and Son. The Holy Spirit is the spirit of joy. He |
| Tx:5.19 | His is the Voice that calls you back to where you were before and | will be again. |
| Tx:5.20 | the Atonement is complete and the whole Sonship is healed, there | will be no call to return, but what God creates is eternal. The Holy |
| Tx:5.20 | no call to return, but what God creates is eternal. The Holy Spirit | will remain with the Sons of God to bless their creations and keep |
| Tx:5.21 | Before the separation you did not need guidance. You knew as you | will know again, but as you do not know now. God does not guide |
| Tx:5.22 | was broken because you had made another voice through another | will. The Holy Spirit calls you both to remember and to forget. You |
| Tx:5.22 | there are choices which you must make. In the holy state, the | will is free in the sense that its creative power is unlimited, but |
| Tx:5.23 | to create, but its application is different. Choosing means divided | will. The Holy Spirit is one way of choosing. This way is in you |
| Tx:5.23 | Him. The voice they put in their minds was not the voice of His | Will for which the Holy Spirit speaks. The call to return is stronger |
| Tx:5.26 | The Holy Spirit is the way in which God's | Will can be done on earth as it is in Heaven. Both Heaven and earth |
| Tx:5.26 | Heaven and earth are in you, because the call of both is in your | will and therefore in your mind. The Voice for God comes from your |
| Tx:5.26 | has given you the two voices, and you must choose at which altar you | will to serve. The call you answer now is an evaluation because it is |
| Tx:5.27 | My mind | will always be like yours, because we were created as equals. It was |
| Tx:5.27 | gift to you is to help you make the same decision for yourself. The | will for this decision is the will to share it, because the decision |
| Tx:5.27 | the same decision for yourself. The will for this decision is the | will to share it, because the decision itself is the decision to |
| Tx:5.27 | of the models you value and choose to follow in determining what you | will to learn. I am your model for decision. By deciding for God, I |
| Tx:5.28 | task is the joyous one of waking it to the Call for God. Everyone | will answer the Call of the Holy Spirit, or the Sonship cannot be as |
| Tx:5.30 | law that behavior is a response to motivation, and motivation is | will. I have enjoined you to behave as I behaved, but we must respond |
| Tx:5.30 | to the same mind to do this. This mind is the Holy Spirit, whose | will is for God always. He teaches you how to keep me as the model |
| Tx:5.34 | perceiving him. See him through the Holy Spirit in his mind, and you | will recognize Him in yours. What you acknowledge in your brother you |
| Tx:5.35 | weak in itself, but it is limited by your unwillingness to hear it. | Will itself is an idea and is therefore strengthened by being shared. |
| Tx:5.35 | of looking for the Holy Spirit in yourself alone, your meditations | will frighten you because by adopting the ego's viewpoint you are |
| Tx:5.39 | ego becomes strong in strife. If you believe there is strife, you | will react viciously because the idea of danger has entered your |
| Tx:5.40 | be given away, just as the idea of unity can. Either way, the idea | will be strengthened in the mind of the giver. |
| Tx:5.41 | can deal with an unwilling learner without going counter to his | will because part of his will is still for God. Despite the ego's |
| Tx:5.41 | learner without going counter to his will because part of his | will is still for God. Despite the ego's attempts to conceal this |
| Tx:5.46 | fail to acknowledge anything that is true. However, the Holy Spirit | will not fail to help you reinterpret everything that you perceive as |
| Tx:5.50 | You cannot cancel out your past errors alone. They | will not disappear from your mind without remedy. The remedy is not |
| Tx:5.51 | by the ego, so we can clarify an earlier point. We said that you | will one day teach as much as you learn and that will keep you in |
| Tx:5.51 | We said that you will one day teach as much as you learn and that | will keep you in balance. The time is now because you have let it be |
| Tx:5.52 | I could not atone for myself alone. Listening to one voice means the | will to share the voice in order to hear it yourself. The mind that |
| Tx:5.55 | you join it and give it away. As you teach, so shall you learn. I | will never leave you or forsake you, because to forsake you would be |
| Tx:5.55 | forsake you would be to forsake myself and God who created me. You | will forsake yourselves and God if you forsake any of your brothers. |
| Tx:5.56 | have been sufficiently purified, He lets you give them away. The | will to share them is their purification. |
| Tx:5.57 | long as any of God's ideas withhold it from the Kingdom. The joint | will of all the Sonship is the only creator that can create like the |
| Tx:5.59 | Perhaps some of our concepts | will become clearer and more personally meaningful if the ego's use |
| Tx:5.61 | perceive yourself as guilty. Whenever you respond to your ego, you | will experience guilt and you will fear punishment. The ego is quite |
| Tx:5.61 | Whenever you respond to your ego, you will experience guilt and you | will fear punishment. The ego is quite literally a fearful thought. |
| Tx:5.63 | is a sure sign that your thinking is unnatural. Perverted thinking | will always be attended with guilt because it is the belief in sin. |
| Tx:5.64 | the ego's survival, because as soon as you regard sin as a lack you | will automatically attempt to remedy the situation. And you will |
| Tx:5.64 | lack you will automatically attempt to remedy the situation. And you | will succeed. The ego regards this as doom, but you must learn to |
| Tx:5.65 | of magical solution. The ego believes that by punishing itself it | will mitigate the punishment of God. Yet even in this it is arrogant. |
| Tx:5.66 | is a judgment which is anything but ineffectual. Its effects | will follow automatically until the decision is changed. This is |
| Tx:5.70 | The continuing | will to remain separated is the only possible reason for continuing |
| Tx:5.70 | results of this decision at that time. Any decision of the mind | will affect both behavior and experience. What you will, you expect. |
| Tx:5.70 | of the mind will affect both behavior and experience. What you | will, you expect. This is not delusional. Your mind does create your |
| Tx:5.70 | to full creation at any minute if it accepts the Atonement first. It | will also turn back to full creation the instant it has done so. |
| Tx:5.72 | of future retaliation or abandonment and thus ensure that the future | will remain like the past. This is the ego's continuity and gives it |
| Tx:5.72 | of eternity in exchange. When you choose to make this exchange, you | will simultaneously exchange guilt for joy, viciousness for love, and |
| Tx:5.72 | for love, and pain for peace. My role is only to unchain your | will and make it free. Your ego cannot accept this freedom and will |
| Tx:5.72 | your will and make it free. Your ego cannot accept this freedom and | will oppose your free decision at every possible moment and in every |
| Tx:5.75 | Another is “Vengeance is mine, sayeth the Lord.” Still another is “I | will visit the sins of the father unto the third and fourth |
| Tx:5.75 | also “The wicked shall perish.” There are many others, but if you | will let the Holy Spirit reinterpret these in His own light, they |
| Tx:5.75 | will let the Holy Spirit reinterpret these in His own light, they | will suffice. |
| Tx:5.76 | reap” merely means that what you believe to be worth cultivating you | will cultivate in yourself. Your judgment of what is worthy makes it |
| Tx:5.76 | cannot be shared. Give it therefore to the Holy Spirit, who | will undo it in you because it does not belong in your mind, which is |
| Tx:5.77 | “I | will visit the sins of the fathers unto the third and fourth |
| Tx:5.78 | The ego | will not be destroyed because it is part of your thought, but because |
| Tx:5.78 | thought, but because it is uncreative and therefore unsharing, it | will be reinterpreted entirely to release you from fear. The part of |
| Tx:5.78 | from fear. The part of your thought which you have given to the ego | will merely return to the Kingdom, where your whole mind belongs. The |
| Tx:5.79 | “where you look to find yourself is up to you.” The Higher Court | will not condemn you. It will merely dismiss the case against you. |
| Tx:5.79 | yourself is up to you.” The Higher Court will not condemn you. It | will merely dismiss the case against you. There can be no case |
| Tx:5.80 | Court, because it speaks for Him and therefore speaks truly. It | will dismiss the case against you, however carefully you have built |
| Tx:5.80 | case may be foolproof, but it is not God-proof. The Voice for God | will not hear it at all because He can only witness truly. His |
| Tx:5.80 | not hear it at all because He can only witness truly. His verdict | will always be “Thine is the Kingdom” because He was given you to |
| Tx:5.81 | of God worth patience? I have shown you infinite patience because my | will is that of our Father, from Whom I learned of infinite patience. |
| Tx:5.82 | We have repeatedly said that time is a learning device which | will be abolished when it is no longer useful. The Holy Spirit, Who |
| Tx:5.83 | also in this course under many different terms. For example, “God | will keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed (or set) on Him,” |
| Tx:5.89 | your creation, and the pull of this fixation is so strong that you | will never overcome it. The reason is perfectly clear. The fixation |
| Tx:5.90 | care. You cannot choose to escape His care because that is not His | Will, but you can choose to accept His care and use the infinite |
| Tx:5.91 | it. He asks you only for what He gave, knowing that this giving | will heal you. Sanity is wholeness, and the sanity of your brothers |
| Tx:5.93 | for everything you have made which is not in accord with His holy | Will. I have made His plan perfectly explicit to you and have also |
| Tx:5.94 | this implies guilt. If you allow yourself to feel guilty, you | will reinforce the error rather than allow it to be undone for you. |
| Tx:5.95 | following as sincerely as you can, remembering that the Holy Spirit | will respond fully to your slightest invitation: |
| Tx:5.96 | I made the decision myself, but I can also decide otherwise. I | will to decide otherwise, because I want to be at peace. I do not |
| Tx:5.96 | I want to be at peace. I do not feel guilty, because the Holy Spirit | will undo all the consequences of my wrong decision if I will let |
| Tx:5.96 | Holy Spirit will undo all the consequences of my wrong decision if I | will let Him. I will to let Him, by allowing Him to decide for God |
| Tx:5.96 | undo all the consequences of my wrong decision if I will let Him. I | will to let Him, by allowing Him to decide for God for Me. |

| Tx:6.25 | Any split in | will must involve a rejection of part of it, and this is the belief |
| Tx:6.27 | Projection | will always hurt you. It reinforces your belief in your own split |
| Tx:6.31 | you to use perception in a way that parallels knowledge, you | will ultimately meet it and know it. The ego would prefer to believe |
| Tx:6.31 | in the future if time and space are one dimension. Your perception | will end where it began. Everything meets in God, because everything |
| Tx:6.40 | Your Godlike mind can never be defiled. The ego never was and never | will be part of it, but through the ego you can hear and teach and |
| Tx:6.41 | is one. Only by teaching it can you learn it. “As you teach, so | will you learn.” If that is true, and it is true indeed, you must |
| Tx:6.43 | in this. Teach attack in any form, and you have learned it, and it | will hurt you. Yet your learning is not immortal, and you can unlearn |
| Tx:6.43 | the exact opposite of everything the ego believes. This is how you | will learn the truth that will set you free and keep you so, as |
| Tx:6.43 | the ego believes. This is how you will learn the truth that | will set you free and keep you so, as others learn it of you. The |
| Tx:6.45 | moment. If it meant you well, it would be glad, as the Holy Spirit | will be glad when He has brought you home and you no longer need His |

| Tx:6.48 | frankly based on separation. If you side with this alliance, you | will be afraid, because you are siding with an alliance of fear. |

| Tx:6.50 | will be nothing left of your dream when you hear Him, because you | will be awake. Your dreams have contained many of the ego's symbols, |
| Tx:6.50 | only because you were asleep and did not know. When you awake, you | will see the truth around you and in you, and you will no longer |

| Tx:6.61 | body and your ego and your dreams are gone, you will know that you | will last forever. Many think this is accomplished through death, but |
| Tx:6.61 | all. Like any other impossible solution which the ego attempts, it | will not work. |
| Tx:6.69 | towards its resolution. Having taken the first step, however, they | will be helped. Once they have chosen what they cannot complete |
| Tx:6.71 | from it. All good teachers realize that only fundamental change | will last, but they do not begin at that level. Strengthening |
| Tx:6.72 | This is because a change in motivation is a change of mind, and this | will inevitably produce fundamental change, because the mind is |
| Tx:6.74 | more so than is any other product of thought. The fundamental change | will still occur with the change of mind in the thinker. Meanwhile, |
| Tx:6.75 | peace of mind is impossible. If you teach both, which you | will surely do as long as you accept both, you are teaching conflict |
| Tx:6.81 | As you take this step and hold this direction, you | will be pushing toward the center of your thought system where the |
| Tx:6.81 | the center of your thought system where the fundamental change | will occur. You are only beginning this step now, but you have |
| Tx:6.81 | is a demonstration of your growing awareness that the Holy Spirit | will lead you on. |
| Tx:6.87 | although it does not deny that the temptation to make exceptions | will occur. Here, then, your consistency is called on despite chaos. |
| Tx:6.88 | can choose either one. By teaching what to choose, the Holy Spirit | will ultimately be able to teach you that you need not choose at all. |
| Tx:6.88 | be able to teach you that you need not choose at all. This | will finally liberate your will from choice and direct it towards |
| Tx:6.88 | you that you need not choose at all. This will finally liberate your | will from choice and direct it towards creation within the Kingdom. |
| Tx:6.88 | creation within the Kingdom. Choosing through the Holy Spirit | will lead you to the Kingdom. You create by what you are, but this is |
| Tx:6.89 | you are teaching peace because you believe in it. The final step | will still be taken for you by God, but by the third step the Holy |
| Tx:6.92 | hold its oneness in your minds because, if you let doubt enter, you | will lose awareness of its wholeness and will be unable to teach it. |
| Tx:6.92 | if you let doubt enter, you will lose awareness of its wholeness and | will be unable to teach it. |
| Tx:6.94 | of your mind outside it. What you have made has thus divided your | will and given you a sick mind which must be healed. Your vigilance |
| Tx:6.94 | was required of me as much as of you, but remember that those who | will to teach the same thing must be in agreement about what they |
| Tx:6.95 | but I also told you that the third one follows it. The Holy Spirit | will enable you to go on if you follow Him. Your vigilance is the |
| Tx:7.4 | not bargain. To bargain is to limit giving, and this is not God's | Will. To will with God is to create like Him. God does not limit His |
| Tx:7.4 | To bargain is to limit giving, and this is not God's Will. To | will with God is to create like Him. God does not limit His gifts in |
| Tx:7.7 | said to] take was therefore true in the beginning, is true now, and | will be true forever. |
| Tx:7.8 | it was never hidden. His light was never obscured, because it is His | Will to share it. How can what is fully shared be withheld and then |
| Tx:7.12 | Those who are against freedom believe that its outcome | will hurt them, which cannot be true. But those who are for freedom, |
| Tx:7.12 | Whenever anyone can listen fairly to both sides of any issue, he | will make the right decision. This is because he has the answer. |
| Tx:7.14 | learning is essential. This form of the law clearly implies that you | will learn what you are from what you have projected onto others and |
| Tx:7.15 | because conflicted minds cannot be faithful to one meaning and | will therefore change the meaning to preserve the form. |
| Tx:7.17 | remembering consistent. You forget in order to remember better. You | will not understand His translations while you listen to two ways of |
| Tx:7.20 | the subject would not do anything. Given variable motivation, he | will do something, but you cannot understand what it is. |
| Tx:7.21 | thing is certain—abilities are potentials for learning, and you | will apply them to what you want to learn. Learning is effort, and |
| Tx:7.21 | them to what you want to learn. Learning is effort, and effort means | will. We have used the term “abilities” in the plural, because |
| Tx:7.24 | That is why you | will be able to perform all aspects of your work with ease when you |
| Tx:7.32 | already is. Like inspiration it can be misunderstood as magic and | will be whenever it is undertaken as separate from what already is |
| Tx:7.34 | because every part of creation is of one order. This is God's | Will and yours. The laws of God establish this, and the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:7.37 | To oppose the pull or the | Will of God is not an ability but a real delusion. The ego believes |
| Tx:7.40 | act in accordance with what you do not believe. To do this, however, | will weaken you as teachers and learners because, as has been |
| Tx:7.40 | emphasized, you teach what you do believe. An inconsistent lesson | will be poorly taught and poorly learned. If you teach both sickness |
| Tx:7.44 | Him always works. Unless the healer always heals by Him, the results | will vary. Yet healing itself is consistence since only consistence |
| Tx:7.49 | or better, an idol which you may worship out of fear but which you | will never love. The other shows you only truth, which you will love, |
| Tx:7.49 | which you will never love. The other shows you only truth, which you | will love, because you will understand it. Understanding is |
| Tx:7.49 | The other shows you only truth, which you will love, because you | will understand it. Understanding is appreciation, because what you |
| Tx:7.52 | share is shared by all our brothers, and as we see them truly, they | will be healed. Let your mind shine with mine upon their minds and by |
| Tx:7.53 | This light | will shine back upon you and on the whole Sonship, because this is |
| Tx:7.53 | on the whole Sonship, because this is your proper gift to God. He | will accept it and give it to the Sonship, because it is acceptable |
| Tx:7.54 | impossible, however, for you to see something in part of it that you | will not attribute to all of it. That is why attack is never discrete |
| Tx:7.54 | whether the ego or the Holy Spirit begets or inspires them, but they | will return to the mind of the thinker, and they will affect his |
| Tx:7.54 | them, but they will return to the mind of the thinker, and they | will affect his total perception. That includes his perception of |
| Tx:7.54 | includes his perception of God, of His creations, and of his own. He | will not appreciate any of them if he regards them fearfully. He will |
| Tx:7.54 | He will not appreciate any of them if he regards them fearfully. He | will appreciate all of them if he regards them with love. |
| Tx:7.55 | is not of your making. Your ability to direct your thinking as you | will is part of its power. If you do not believe you can do this, you |
| Tx:7.57 | ensures its continuance if you side with it by guaranteeing that you | will not know your own safety. The ego cannot afford to know |
| Tx:7.59 | make illusions, but it does follow that if it makes illusions it | will believe in them, because that is how it made them. |
| Tx:7.61 | If you | will keep in mind what the Holy Spirit offers you, you cannot be |
| Tx:7.65 | of God. Any belief that you accept which is apart from this | will obscure God's Voice in you and will therefore obscure God to |
| Tx:7.65 | accept which is apart from this will obscure God's Voice in you and | will therefore obscure God to you. Unless you perceive His creation |
| Tx:7.67 | judged sanity as wholly desirable. If you want something else, you | will make something else, but because it is something else, it will |
| Tx:7.67 | you will make something else, but because it is something else, it | will attack your thought system and divide your allegiance. You |
| Tx:7.68 | God and are therefore depriving yourselves of joy. This is not God's | Will but yours. If your will is out of accord with God's, you are |
| Tx:7.68 | yourselves of joy. This is not God's Will but yours. If your | will is out of accord with God's, you are willing without meaning. |
| Tx:7.68 | with God's, you are willing without meaning. Yet because God's | Will is unchangeable, no real conflict of will is possible. This is |
| Tx:7.68 | meaning. Yet because God's Will is unchangeable, no real conflict of | will is possible. This is the Holy Spirit's perfectly consistent |
| Tx:7.69 | Creation, not separation, is your | will because it is God's, and nothing that opposes this means |
| Tx:7.70 | Whenever you deny a blessing to a brother, you | will feel deprived. This is because denial is as total as love. It is |
| Tx:7.71 | positively as it is of being used destructively. Used negatively it | will be destructive because it will be used for attack, but in the |
| Tx:7.71 | destructively. Used negatively it will be destructive because it | will be used for attack, but in the service of the Holy Spirit, [the |
| Tx:7.71 | all of it. Mind is too powerful to be subject to exclusion. You | will never be able to exclude yourself from what you project. |
| Tx:7.73 | you would not want to be. Your brother is the mirror in which you | will see the image of yourself as long as perception lasts. And |
| Tx:7.73 | the image of yourself as long as perception lasts. And perception | will last until the Sonship knows itself as whole. |
| Tx:7.74 | it must last as long as you want it. Illusions are investments. They | will last as long as you value them. Values are relative, but they |
| Tx:7.74 | dispel illusions is to withdraw all investment from them, and they | will have no life for you, because you have put them out of your |
| Tx:7.75 | All confusion comes from not extending life, since that is not the | Will of your Creator. You can do nothing apart from Him, and you do |
| Tx:7.77 | brothers theirs. Do not share their delusions of scarcity, or you | will perceive yourself as lacking. |
| Tx:7.79 | another, this is what he believes. Projection always sees your | will in others. If you will to separate yourself from God, that is |
| Tx:7.79 | what he believes. Projection always sees your will in others. If you | will to separate yourself from God, that is what you will think |
| Tx:7.79 | others. If you will to separate yourself from God, that is what you | will think others are doing to you. |
| Tx:7.80 | You are the | Will of God. Do not accept anything else as your will, or you are |
| Tx:7.80 | You are the Will of God. Do not accept anything else as your | will, or you are denying what you are. Deny this and you will attack, |
| Tx:7.80 | as your will, or you are denying what you are. Deny this and you | will attack, believing you have been attacked. But see the love of |
| Tx:7.80 | you have been attacked. But see the love of God in you, and you | will see it everywhere, because it is everywhere. See His abundance |
| Tx:7.80 | because it is everywhere. See His abundance in everyone, and you | will know that you are in Him with them. They are part of you, as you |
| Tx:7.81 | real, wholly perfect, and wholly desirable. Wanting this only, you | will have this only, and giving this only, you will be only this. The |
| Tx:7.81 | this only, you will have this only, and giving this only, you | will be only this. The gifts you offer to the ego are always |
| Tx:7.81 | but the gifts you offer to the Kingdom are gifts to you. They | will always be treasured by God, because they belong to His beloved |
| Tx:7.83 | is up to you, but it is not up to you to decide whether or not you | will utilize projection. Every mind must project, because that is how |
| Tx:7.84 | it does not want you to find conflict so intolerable that you | will insist on giving it up. Therefore, the ego tries to persuade you |
| Tx:7.86 | for their own safety. They are afraid that their projections | will return and hurt them. They do believe they have blotted their |
| Tx:7.88 | the responsibility for your belief in it onto anyone else, or you | will preserve the belief. When you are willing to accept sole |
| Tx:7.88 | to accept sole responsibility for the ego's existence yourself, you | will have laid aside all anger and all attack, because they come from |
| Tx:7.88 | to the Holy Spirit to be undone completely so that all their effects | will vanish from your minds and from the Sonship as a whole. |
| Tx:7.89 | The Holy Spirit | will teach you to perceive beyond belief, because truth is beyond |
| Tx:7.90 | of this course is to teach you that the ego is unbelievable and | will forever be unbelievable. You who made the ego by believing the |
| Tx:7.93 | to share its being as its Creator did. Created by sharing, its | will is to create. It does not wish to contain God but to extend His |
| Tx:7.95 | knows of them and can bring them into your awareness whenever you | will let Him. They are there as part of your own being, because your |
| Tx:7.96 | and thus have not failed to secure it for yourselves. If it was the | Will of God to give it to you, He gave it forever. If it was His Will |
| Tx:7.96 | the Will of God to give it to you, He gave it forever. If it was His | Will that you have it forever, He gave you the means for keeping it, |
| Tx:7.96 | you the means for keeping it, and you have done so. Disobeying God's | Will is meaningful only to the insane. In truth it is impossible. |
| Tx:7.99 | mind. Whatever these beliefs may be, they are the premises which | will determine what you accept into your mind. It is surely clear |
| Tx:7.100 | truth has nothing to do with your willingness at all. Truth is God's | Will. Share His Will, and you share what He knows. Deny His Will as |
| Tx:7.100 | to do with your willingness at all. Truth is God's Will. Share His | Will, and you share what He knows. Deny His Will as yours, and you |
| Tx:7.100 | is God's Will. Share His Will, and you share what He knows. Deny His | Will as yours, and you are denying His Kingdom and yours. The Holy |
| Tx:7.100 | as yours, and you are denying His Kingdom and yours. The Holy Spirit | will direct you only so as to avoid pain. The undoing of pain must |
| Tx:7.101 | to the ego and, as long as you are in doubt about what you are, you | will be confused about joy and pain. This confusion is the cause of |
| Tx:7.101 | cause of the whole idea of sacrifice. Obey the Holy Spirit, and you | will be giving up the ego. But you will be sacrificing nothing. On |
| Tx:7.101 | Obey the Holy Spirit, and you will be giving up the ego. But you | will be sacrificing nothing. On the contrary, you will be gaining |
| Tx:7.101 | the ego. But you will be sacrificing nothing. On the contrary, you | will be gaining everything. If you believed this, there would be no |
| Tx:7.102 | is not obvious to you. You believe that doing the opposite of God's | Will can be better for you. You also believe that it is possible to |
| Tx:7.102 | You also believe that it is possible to do the opposite of God's | Will. Therefore, you believe that an impossible choice is open to you |
| Tx:7.102 | fearful and very desirable. Yet God wills. He does not wish. Your | will is as powerful as His because it is His. The ego's wishes do not |
| Tx:7.102 | for the impossible. You can wish for the impossible, but you can | will only with God. This is the ego's weakness and your strength. |
| Tx:7.104 | you, and therefore your trustworthiness is beyond question. It | will always remain beyond question, however much you may question it. |
| Tx:7.105 | We said before that you are the | Will of God. His Will is not an idle wish, and your identification |
| Tx:7.105 | We said before that you are the Will of God. His | Will is not an idle wish, and your identification with His Will is |
| Tx:7.105 | God. His Will is not an idle wish, and your identification with His | Will is not optional, since it is what you are. Sharing His Will with |
| Tx:7.105 | with His Will is not optional, since it is what you are. Sharing His | Will with me is not really open to choice, though it may seem to be. |
| Tx:7.105 | Everything has been given you by God's decision. That is His | Will, and you can not undo it. Even the relinquishment of your false |
| Tx:7.105 | is not accomplished by your wish. It was accomplished for you by the | Will of God, Who has not left you comfortless. His Voice will teach |
| Tx:7.105 | you by the Will of God, Who has not left you comfortless. His Voice | will teach you how to distinguish between pain and joy and will lead |
| Tx:7.105 | His Voice will teach you how to distinguish between pain and joy and | will lead you out of the confusion which you have made. There is no |
| Tx:7.105 | have made. There is no confusion in the mind of a Son of God whose | will must be the Will of the Father, because the Father's Will is His |
| Tx:7.105 | is no confusion in the mind of a Son of God whose will must be the | Will of the Father, because the Father's Will is His Son. |
| Tx:7.105 | God whose will must be the Will of the Father, because the Father's | Will is His Son. |
| Tx:7.106 | Miracles are in accord with the | Will of God Whose Will you do not know, because you are confused |
| Tx:7.106 | Miracles are in accord with the Will of God Whose | Will you do not know, because you are confused about what you will. |
| Tx:7.106 | Whose Will you do not know, because you are confused about what you | will. This means that you are confused about what you are. If you are |
| Tx:7.106 | means that you are confused about what you are. If you are God's | Will and do not accept His Will[, you can only be not accepting what |
| Tx:7.107 | The Holy Spirit | will always guide you truly, because your joy is His. This is His |
| Tx:7.107 | will always guide you truly, because your joy is His. This is His | Will for everyone, because He speaks for the Kingdom of God which is |
| Tx:7.107 | to yourselves that there is no order of difficulty in miracles, you | will convince yourselves that in your natural state there is no |
| Tx:7.108 | he knows he is with God. That is the only environment in which he | will not experience strain, because that is where he belongs. It is |
| Tx:7.113 | He created to know what they have shared. Without your Father, you | will not know your fatherhood. The Kingdom of God includes all His |
| Tx:7.113 | Sons as they are like the Father. Know then the Sons of God, and you | will know all creation. |
| Tx:8.2 | Knowledge | will be restored when you meet its conditions. This is not a bargain |
| Tx:8.2 | It is merely the result of your misuse of His laws on behalf of a | will that is not His. Knowledge is His Will. If you are opposing His |
| Tx:8.2 | of His laws on behalf of a will that is not His. Knowledge is His | Will. If you are opposing His Will, how can you have knowledge? I |
| Tx:8.2 | will that is not His. Knowledge is His Will. If you are opposing His | Will, how can you have knowledge? I have told you what knowledge |
| Tx:8.3 | to you. If you do not want them on the basis of loss of peace, they | will be removed from your mind for you. Every response to the ego is |
| Tx:8.7 | reality is unaffected by both, but if you listen to both, your mind | will be split about what your reality is. |
| Tx:8.9 | what you have. When you are taught against your nature, however, you | will lose by your learning because your learning will imprison you. |
| Tx:8.9 | however, you will lose by your learning because your learning | will imprison you. Your will is in your nature and therefore cannot |
| Tx:8.9 | lose by your learning because your learning will imprison you. Your | will is in your nature and therefore cannot go against it. |
| Tx:8.10 | The ego cannot teach you anything as long as your | will is free, because you will not listen to it. It is not your will |
| Tx:8.10 | cannot teach you anything as long as your will is free, because you | will not listen to it. It is not your will to be imprisoned, because |
| Tx:8.10 | your will is free, because you will not listen to it. It is not your | will to be imprisoned, because your will is free. That is why the ego |
| Tx:8.10 | not listen to it. It is not your will to be imprisoned, because your | will is free. That is why the ego is the denial of free will. It is |
| Tx:8.10 | because your will is free. That is why the ego is the denial of free | will. It is never God who coerces you because He shares His Will with |
| Tx:8.10 | of free will. It is never God who coerces you because He shares His | Will with you. His Voice teaches only His Will, but that is not the |
| Tx:8.10 | you because He shares His Will with you. His Voice teaches only His | Will, but that is not the Holy Spirit's lesson because that is what |
| Tx:8.10 | lesson because that is what you are. The lesson is that your | will and God's cannot be out of accord, because they are one. This is |
| Tx:8.11 | The ego wants to teach you that you want to oppose God's | Will. This unnatural lesson cannot be learned, but the attempt to |
| Tx:8.11 | it is a violation of your own freedom and makes you afraid of your | will because it is free. The Holy Spirit opposes any imprisoning of |
| Tx:8.11 | because it is free. The Holy Spirit opposes any imprisoning of the | will of a Son of God, knowing that the will of the Son is the |
| Tx:8.11 | any imprisoning of the will of a Son of God, knowing that the | will of the Son is the Father's. The Holy Spirit leads you steadily |
| Tx:8.13 | Yet He cannot conceive of God without you, because it is not God's | Will to be without you. When you have learned that your will is |
| Tx:8.13 | is not God's Will to be without you. When you have learned that your | will is God's, you could no more will to be without Him than He could |
| Tx:8.13 | When you have learned that your will is God's, you could no more | will to be without Him than He could will to be without you. This is |
| Tx:8.13 | is God's, you could no more will to be without Him than He could | will to be without you. This is freedom and this is joy. Deny |
| Tx:8.14 | The | Will of God is without limit, and all power and glory lie within it. |
| Tx:8.14 | By creating all things, it made them part of itself. You are the | Will of God, because this is how you were created. Because your |
| Tx:8.16 | that you are light. If you want understanding and enlightenment, you | will learn it, because your will to learn it is your decision to |
| Tx:8.16 | understanding and enlightenment, you will learn it, because your | will to learn it is your decision to listen to the Teacher who knows |
| Tx:8.16 | because there is no limit on your minds. There is no limit on His | Will to teach, because He was created [by unlimited Will in order] to |
| Tx:8.16 | no limit on His Will to teach, because He was created [by unlimited | Will in order] to teach. Knowing His function perfectly, He wills to |

| Tx:8.17 | there is no other experience. Yet the wish for other experience | will block its accomplishment, because God's Will cannot be forced |
| Tx:8.17 | for other experience will block its accomplishment, because God's | Will cannot be forced upon you, being an experience of total |

| Tx:8.17 | Him and why God gave Him to you. Only His teaching will release your | will to God's, uniting it with His power and glory and establishing |
| Tx:8.18 | The | will of Father and of the Son are one together by their extension. |
| Tx:8.18 | their oneness, holding their unity together by extending their joint | will. This is perfect creation by the perfectly created in union with |
| Tx:8.18 | upon it. Let the Holy Spirit teach you how to do this, for you | will know what it means of God Himself. |
| Tx:8.19 | meet anyone, remember it is a holy encounter. As you see him, you | will see yourself. As you treat him, you will treat yourself. As you |
| Tx:8.19 | As you see him, you will see yourself. As you treat him, you | will treat yourself. As you think of him, you will think of yourself. |
| Tx:8.19 | As you treat him, you will treat yourself. As you think of him, you | will think of yourself. Never forget this, for in him you will find |
| Tx:8.19 | him, you will think of yourself. Never forget this, for in him you | will find yourself or lose sight of yourself. Whenever two Sons of |
| Tx:8.21 | are learning what you are because you are teaching what you are. He | will respond either with pain or with joy, depending on which teacher |
| Tx:8.21 | pain or with joy, depending on which teacher you are following. He | will be imprisoned or released according to your decision, and so |
| Tx:8.21 | He will be imprisoned or released according to your decision, and so | will you. Never forget your responsibility to him, because it is your |
| Tx:8.21 | to yourself. Give him his place in the Kingdom, and you | will have yours. The Kingdom cannot be found alone, and you who are |
| Tx:8.22 | because it does not know anything. But you can know this, and you | will know it if you are willing to look at what the ego has made of |
| Tx:8.22 | is your responsibility, because once you have really done this, you | will accept the Atonement for yourself. What other choice could you |
| Tx:8.22 | What other choice could you make? Having made this choice, you | will begin to learn and understand why you have believed that when |
| Tx:8.22 | was someone else. And every holy encounter in which you enter fully | will teach you this is not so. |
| Tx:8.23 | is in God and therefore in you. God wills no one suffer. He does not | will anyone to suffer for a wrong decision, including you. That is |
| Tx:8.24 | of your self is the function He gave you. Fulfilling it perfectly | will teach you what you have of Him, and this will teach you what you |
| Tx:8.24 | it perfectly will teach you what you have of Him, and this | will teach you what you are in Him. You cannot be powerless to do |
| Tx:8.25 | If God's | Will for you is complete peace and joy, unless you experience only |
| Tx:8.25 | you experience only this you must be refusing to acknowledge His | Will. His Will does not vacillate, being changeless forever. When you |
| Tx:8.25 | only this you must be refusing to acknowledge His Will. His | Will does not vacillate, being changeless forever. When you are not |
| Tx:8.25 | you can disobey them. Yet if you do, and only if you do, you | will feel lonely and helpless, because you are denying yourself |
| Tx:8.27 | and of Him Who sent me to you. You were in darkness until God's | Will was done completely by any part of the Sonship. When this was |
| Tx:8.27 | it be perfectly accomplished? My mission was simply to unite the | will of the Sonship with the Will of the Father by being aware of the |
| Tx:8.27 | My mission was simply to unite the will of the Sonship with the | Will of the Father by being aware of the Father's Will myself. This |
| Tx:8.27 | Sonship with the Will of the Father by being aware of the Father's | Will myself. This is the awareness I came to give you, and your |
| Tx:8.28 | Your reactions to me are the reactions of the world to God. If you | will accept the fact that I am with you, you are denying the world |
| Tx:8.28 | that I am with you, you are denying the world and accepting God. My | will is His, and your will to hear me is the decision to hear His |
| Tx:8.28 | are denying the world and accepting God. My will is His, and your | will to hear me is the decision to hear His Voice and abide in His |
| Tx:8.28 | will to hear me is the decision to hear His Voice and abide in His | Will. As God sent me to you, so will I send you to others, and I will |
| Tx:8.28 | to hear His Voice and abide in His Will. As God sent me to you, so | will I send you to others, and I will go to them with you so we can |
| Tx:8.28 | His Will. As God sent me to you, so will I send you to others, and I | will go to them with you so we can teach them [union and peace]. |
| Tx:8.29 | the world as much as you want to receive it? For unless you do, you | will not receive it. If you will to have it of me, you must give it. |
| Tx:8.29 | to receive it? For unless you do, you will not receive it. If you | will to have it of me, you must give it. Rehabilitation does not come |
| Tx:8.29 | it from within. The guidance must [become] what you want, or it | will be meaningless to you. That is why rehabilitation is a |
| Tx:8.30 | I can tell you what to do, but this | will not help you unless you collaborate by believing that I know |
| Tx:8.30 | you collaborate by believing that I know what to do. Only then | will your mind choose to follow me. Without your will, you cannot be |
| Tx:8.30 | to do. Only then will your mind choose to follow me. Without your | will, you cannot be rehabilitated. Motivation to be healed is the |
| Tx:8.30 | Without this you are deciding against healing, and your veto of my | will for you makes healing impossible. If healing is our joint will, |
| Tx:8.30 | of my will for you makes healing impossible. If healing is our joint | will, unless our wills are joined you cannot be healed. This is |
| Tx:8.31 | The | will to unite must be unequivocal, or the will itself is divided or |
| Tx:8.31 | The will to unite must be unequivocal, or the | will itself is divided or not whole. Your will is the means by which |
| Tx:8.31 | be unequivocal, or the will itself is divided or not whole. Your | will is the means by which you determine your own condition, because |
| Tx:8.31 | will is the means by which you determine your own condition, because | will is the mechanism of decision. It is the power by which you |
| Tx:8.31 | you separate or join and experience pain or joy accordingly. My | will cannot overcome yours, because yours is as powerful as mine. If |
| Tx:8.31 | of God would be unequal. All things are possible through our joint | will, but my will alone cannot help you. Your will is as free as |
| Tx:8.31 | be unequal. All things are possible through our joint will, but my | will alone cannot help you. Your will is as free as mine, and God |
| Tx:8.31 | through our joint will, but my will alone cannot help you. Your | will is as free as mine, and God Himself would not go against it. I |
| Tx:8.31 | as free as mine, and God Himself would not go against it. I cannot | will what God does not will. I can offer you my will to make yours |
| Tx:8.31 | God Himself would not go against it. I cannot will what God does not | will. I can offer you my will to make yours invincible by this |
| Tx:8.31 | against it. I cannot will what God does not will. I can offer you my | will to make yours invincible by this sharing, but I cannot oppose |
| Tx:8.31 | oppose yours without competing with it and thereby violating God's | Will for you. |
| Tx:8.32 | Nothing God created can oppose your | will, as nothing God created can oppose His. God gave your will its |
| Tx:8.32 | your will, as nothing God created can oppose His. God gave your | will its power, which I can only acknowledge in honor of His. If you |
| Tx:8.32 | I can only acknowledge in honor of His. If you want to be like me, I | will help you, knowing that we are alike. If you want to be |
| Tx:8.32 | help you, knowing that we are alike. If you want to be different, I | will wait until you change your mind. I can teach you, but only you |
| Tx:8.32 | of all God's Sons cannot be recognized through the dominion of one | will over another. God's Sons are equal in will, all being the Will |
| Tx:8.32 | the dominion of one will over another. God's Sons are equal in | will, all being the Will of their Father. This is the only lesson I |
| Tx:8.32 | one will over another. God's Sons are equal in will, all being the | Will of their Father. This is the only lesson I came to teach, |
| Tx:8.33 | When your | will is not mine, it is not our Father's. This means that you have |
| Tx:8.33 | without me, because by denying the Father you deny yourself. I | will always remember you, and in my remembrance of you lies your |
| Tx:8.33 | you whom He created. This is our gift of gratitude to Him, which He | will share with all His creations, to whom He gives equally whatever |
| Tx:8.33 | it is acceptable to Him, it is the gift of freedom, which is His | Will for all His Sons. By offering freedom, you will be free. |
| Tx:8.33 | which is His Will for all His Sons. By offering freedom, you | will be free. |
| Tx:8.35 | not a solution; it is a delusion. The delusional believe that truth | will assail them, and so they do not see it, because they prefer the |
| Tx:8.36 | Help them by offering them your unified | will on their behalf, as I am offering you mine on yours. Alone we |
| Tx:8.36 | beyond the power of its separate parts. By not being separate, the | Will of God is established in ours and as ours. This will is |
| Tx:8.36 | separate, the Will of God is established in ours and as ours. This | will is invincible, because it is undivided. The undivided will of |
| Tx:8.36 | This will is invincible, because it is undivided. The undivided | will of the Sonship is the perfect creator, being wholly in the |
| Tx:8.36 | is the perfect creator, being wholly in the likeness of God, Whose | Will it is. You cannot be exempt from it if you are to understand |
| Tx:8.36 | are to understand what it is and what you are. By separating your | will from mine, you are exempting yourself from the Will of God, |
| Tx:8.36 | separating your will from mine, you are exempting yourself from the | Will of God, which is yourself. |
| Tx:8.37 | of yourself. There is no separation of God and His creation. You | will learn this as you learn that there is no separation of your will |
| Tx:8.37 | You will learn this as you learn that there is no separation of your | will and mine. Let the love of God shine upon you by your acceptance |
| Tx:8.37 | your acceptance of me. My reality is yours and His. By joining your | will with mine, you are signifying your awareness that the Will of |
| Tx:8.37 | your will with mine, you are signifying your awareness that the | Will of God is one. |
| Tx:8.38 | them because they are united. The miracles we do bear witness to the | Will of the Father for His Son and to our joy in uniting with His |
| Tx:8.38 | Will of the Father for His Son and to our joy in uniting with His | Will for us. |
| Tx:8.39 | wills, because nothing can prevail against God's. Would you know the | Will of God for you? Ask it of me who knows it for you, and you will |
| Tx:8.39 | the Will of God for you? Ask it of me who knows it for you, and you | will find it. I will deny you nothing, as God denies me nothing. |
| Tx:8.39 | for you? Ask it of me who knows it for you, and you will find it. I | will deny you nothing, as God denies me nothing. |
| Tx:8.40 | companion instead of the ego. Do not try to hold on to both, or you | will try to go in different directions and will lose the way. |
| Tx:8.40 | hold on to both, or you will try to go in different directions and | will lose the way. |
| Tx:8.41 | therefore for my hand, because you want to transcend the ego. My | will will never be wanting, and if you want to share it you will. I |
| Tx:8.41 | for my hand, because you want to transcend the ego. My will | will never be wanting, and if you want to share it you will. I give |
| Tx:8.41 | ego. My will will never be wanting, and if you want to share it you | will. I give it willingly and gladly, because I need you as much as |
| Tx:8.42 | We are the joint | will of the Sonship, whose wholeness is for all. We begin the journey |
| Tx:8.42 | and add their strength to us. God's welcome waits for us all, and He | will welcome us as I am welcoming you. Forget not the Kingdom of God |
| Tx:8.43 | If it were, you would have destroyed yourselves. Yet God did not | will the destruction of His creations, having created them for |
| Tx:8.43 | destruction of His creations, having created them for eternity. His | Will has saved you, not from yourselves, but from your illusions of |
| Tx:8.47 | Your function is to add to God's treasure by creating yours. His | Will to you is His Will for you. He would not withhold creation from |
| Tx:8.47 | to add to God's treasure by creating yours. His Will to you is His | Will for you. He would not withhold creation from you, because His |
| Tx:8.47 | one can know his function unless he knows who he is. Creation is the | Will of God. His Will created you to create. Your will was not |
| Tx:8.47 | function unless he knows who he is. Creation is the Will of God. His | Will created you to create. Your will was not created separate from |
| Tx:8.47 | Creation is the Will of God. His Will created you to create. Your | will was not created separate from His, and so it wills as He wills. |

| Tx:8.48 | you are unwilling to will with God, you are not thinking. God's | Will is thought. It cannot be contradicted by thought. God does not |
| Tx:8.49 | one you should ever ask of yourself: “Do I want to know my Father's | Will for me?” He will not hide it. He has revealed it to me, because |
| Tx:8.49 | ask of yourself: “Do I want to know my Father's Will for me?” He | will not hide it. He has revealed it to me, because I asked it of Him |
| Tx:8.49 | any of us alone. God would not have us be alone, because He does not | will to be alone. That is why He created His Son and gave him the |
| Tx:8.51 | experience is of God. Together we can meet its conditions, but truth | will dawn upon you of itself. |
| Tx:8.52 | What God has willed for you is yours. He has given His | Will to His treasure, whose treasure it is. Your heart lies where |
| Tx:8.52 | of God are wholly blessed. Learn this of me, and free the holy | will of all those who are as blessed as you are. |
| Tx:8.53 | have no appeal for you. When you equate yourself with a body, you | will always experience depression. When a Child of God thinks of |
| Tx:8.54 | uniting them with yours and mine. This interpretation of the body | will change your mind entirely about its value. Of itself it has none. |
| Tx:8.55 | are bodies and teach them through the body that this is not so, you | will begin to understand the power of the mind that is in both of |
| Tx:8.56 | to the use to which it is put. And in the body of another you | will see the use to which you have put yours. If the body becomes for |
| Tx:8.56 | to the Holy Spirit to use on behalf of union of the Sonship, you | will not see anything physical except as what it is. Use it for |
| Tx:8.56 | anything physical except as what it is. Use it for truth, and you | will see it truly. Misuse it, and you will misunderstand it, because |
| Tx:8.56 | is. Use it for truth, and you will see it truly. Misuse it, and you | will misunderstand it, because you have already done so by misusing |
| Tx:8.56 | misusing it. Interpret anything apart from the Holy Spirit, and you | will mistrust it. This will lead you to hatred and attack and loss of |
| Tx:8.56 | anything apart from the Holy Spirit, and you will mistrust it. This | will lead you to hatred and attack and loss of peace. |
| Tx:8.58 | and glory for you, with which you can perfectly accomplish His holy | will for you when you so will it yourself. He has not withdrawn His |
| Tx:8.58 | which you can perfectly accomplish His holy will for you when you so | will it yourself. He has not withdrawn His gifts from you, but you |
| Tx:8.63 | body but not in it. If the mind believes the body is its goal, it | will distort its perception of the body and, by blocking its own |
| Tx:8.63 | perception of the body and, by blocking its own extension beyond it, | will induce illness by fostering separation. Perceiving the body as a |
| Tx:8.63 | but foster illness because it is not true. A medium of communication | will lose its usefulness if it is used for anything else. To use a |
| Tx:8.68 | is extension. Do not arrest your thought in this world, and you | will open your mind to creation in God. |
| Tx:8.71 | forced to shift from one end to another without ceasing, so that you | will continue to hope that it can yet offer you something. |
| Tx:8.75 | end. The ego, however, establishes it as an end because as such it | will lose its true function. This is the purpose of everything the |
| Tx:8.78 | cases. Nor can anyone doubt your willingness to listen until you | will not to tolerate anything except truth. When you lay the ego |
| Tx:8.78 | to tolerate anything except truth. When you lay the ego aside, it | will be gone. The Holy Spirit's Voice is as loud as your willingness |
| Tx:8.78 | willingness to listen. It cannot be louder without violating your | will, which the Holy Spirit seeks to free but never to command. |
| Tx:8.79 | reach your brothers, so He can teach His message through you. This | will heal them and therefore heal you. Everything used in accordance |
| Tx:8.79 | of your own perception of littleness. Do not let it reflect your | will to attack. Health is the natural state of anything whose |
| Tx:8.81 | your awareness of its reality. You do not have to seek reality. It | will seek you and find you when you meet its conditions. Its |
| Tx:8.81 | need do so little, because it is so powerful that your little part | will bring the whole to you. Accept then your little part, and let |
| Tx:8.82 | too, has use for sleep and can use dreams on behalf of waking if you | will let Him. |
| Tx:8.84 | is release from the fear of waking and the substitution of the | will to wake. The will to wake is the will to love, since all healing |
| Tx:8.84 | the fear of waking and the substitution of the will to wake. The | will to wake is the will to love, since all healing involves |
| Tx:8.84 | and the substitution of the will to wake. The will to wake is the | will to love, since all healing involves replacing fear with love. |
| Tx:8.85 | The ego, which always weakens the | will, wants to separate the body from the mind. This is an attempt to |
| Tx:8.89 | He cannot lose this, but you can not know it. Yet it is still His | Will for you, and His Will must stand forever and in all things. |
| Tx:8.89 | but you can not know it. Yet it is still His Will for you, and His | Will must stand forever and in all things. |
| Tx:8.90 | Fear of the | Will of God is one of the strangest beliefs that the human mind has |
| Tx:8.90 | since reality can only uphold truth. The very fact that the | Will of God, which is what you are, is perceived as fearful to you |
| Tx:8.90 | that you are afraid of what you are. It is not, then, the | Will of God of which you are afraid, but yours. Your will is not the |
| Tx:8.90 | not, then, the Will of God of which you are afraid, but yours. Your | will is not the ego's, and that is why the ego is against you. What |
| Tx:8.91 | decided that what you are is fearful, then it must follow that you | will not learn this course. Yet you might remember that the reason |
| Tx:8.92 | remind you of what you want. He is not attempting to force an alien | will upon you. He is merely making every possible effort, within the |
| Tx:8.92 | within the limits you impose on Him, to re-establish your own | will in your consciousness. |
| Tx:8.93 | You have imprisoned your | will in your unconscious, where it remains available but cannot help |
| Tx:8.93 | He has the power to look into what you have hidden and perceive the | Will of God there. His perception of this will can make it real to |
| Tx:8.93 | hidden and perceive the Will of God there. His perception of this | will can make it real to you because He is in your mind and therefore |
| Tx:8.94 | possibly have. We have emphasized many times that the Holy Spirit | will never call upon you to sacrifice anything. But if you ask the |
| Tx:8.94 | yourselves, the Holy Spirit must remind you that this is not God's | Will because it is not yours. There is no difference between your |
| Tx:8.94 | Will because it is not yours. There is no difference between your | will and God's. If you did not have split minds, you would recognize |
| Tx:8.94 | through creation because that, and only that, is your joint | will. |
| Tx:8.95 | ask for what you do not want? Yet as long as you are afraid of your | will, this is precisely what you will ask for. You may insist that |
| Tx:8.95 | as long as you are afraid of your will, this is precisely what you | will ask for. You may insist that the Holy Spirit does not answer |
| Tx:8.96 | persist in asking the teacher who could not possibly teach you your | will. Of him you can never learn it, and this gives you the illusion |
| Tx:8.96 | be safe from truth but only in it. Reality is the only safety. Your | will is your salvation because it is the same as God's. The |
| Tx:8.97 | No mind can believe that its | will is stronger than God's. If, then, a mind believes that its will |
| Tx:8.97 | its will is stronger than God's. If, then, a mind believes that its | will is different from His, it can only decide either that there is |
| Tx:8.97 | His, it can only decide either that there is no God or that God's | Will is fearful. The former accounts for the atheist and the latter |
| Tx:8.97 | demands sacrifices of any kind. Either basic type of insane decision | will induce panic, because the atheist believes he is alone, and the |
| Tx:8.98 | The atheist maintains that God has left him, but he does not care. He | will, however, become very fearful and hence very angry if anyone |
| Tx:8.98 | was never created. It was never created, because it was never your | will for you. |
| Tx:8.99 | Ultimately everyone must remember the | Will of God, because ultimately everyone must recognize himself. This |
| Tx:8.99 | must recognize himself. This recognition is the recognition that his | will and God's are one. In the presence of truth, there are no |
| Tx:8.99 | is the only Cause. God is Love, and you do want Him. This is your | will. Ask for this and you will be answered because you will be |
| Tx:8.99 | Love, and you do want Him. This is your will. Ask for this and you | will be answered because you will be asking only for what belongs to |
| Tx:8.99 | This is your will. Ask for this and you will be answered because you | will be asking only for what belongs to you. |
| Tx:8.100 | of the Holy Spirit because your requests are real, being of your | will. Would the Holy Spirit deny the Will of God? And could He fail |
| Tx:8.100 | are real, being of your will. Would the Holy Spirit deny the | Will of God? And could He fail to recognize it in His Sons? |
| Tx:8.101 | is totally at variance with the principle of creation. God could not | will that happiness depended on what you could never have. |
| Tx:8.102 | for you to change them. If you hold your hands over your eyes, you | will not see because you are interfering with the laws of seeing. If |
| Tx:8.102 | you are interfering with the laws of seeing. If you deny love, you | will not know it because your cooperation is the law of its being. |
| Tx:8.103 | any kind to deny what is are fearful, and if they are strong, they | will induce panic. Willing against reality, though impossible, can be |
| Tx:8.104 | cannot be created. As long as you believe that fear is possible, you | will not create. Opposing orders of reality make reality meaningless, |
| Tx:8.105 | Remember, then, that God's | Will is already possible and nothing else will ever be. This is the |
| Tx:8.105 | Remember, then, that God's Will is already possible and nothing else | will ever be. This is the simple acceptance of reality, because only |
| Tx:8.105 | reality and know what it is. And if you do distort reality, you | will experience anxiety, depression, and ultimately panic, because |
| Tx:8.109 | The very fact that one has asked the Holy Spirit for anything | will ensure a response. Yet it is equally certain that no response |
| Tx:8.109 | Yet it is equally certain that no response given by the Holy Spirit | will ever be one which would increase fear. It is possible that His |
| Tx:8.109 | be one which would increase fear. It is possible that His answer | will not be heard at all. It is impossible, however, that it will be |
| Tx:8.109 | answer will not be heard at all. It is impossible, however, that it | will be lost. There are many answers which you have already received |
| Tx:8.110 | Believe his words are true because of the truth which is in him. You | will unite with the truth in him, and his words will be true. As you |
| Tx:8.110 | which is in him. You will unite with the truth in him, and his words | will be true. As you hear him, you will hear me. Listening to truth |
| Tx:8.110 | the truth in him, and his words will be true. As you hear him, you | will hear me. Listening to truth is the only way you can hear it now |
| Tx:8.112 | you are not alone. And His answer is only for what you are. You | will not know the trust I have in you unless you extend it. You will |
| Tx:8.112 | You will not know the trust I have in you unless you extend it. You | will not trust the guidance of the Holy Spirit or believe that it is |
| Tx:8.113 | whom God's Voice speaks. The answer to all prayers lies in them. You | will be answered as you hear the answer in everyone. Do not listen to |
| Tx:8.113 | hear the answer in everyone. Do not listen to anything else, or you | will not hear truth. |
| Tx:8.114 | Believe in your brothers because I believe in you, and you | will learn that my belief in you is justified. Believe in me by |
| Tx:8.114 | in me by believing in them for the sake of what God gave them. They | will answer you if you learn to ask truth of them. Do not ask for |
| Tx:8.115 | cannot be grateful for what you do not value. There is a price you | will pay for judgment because judgment is the setting of a price. And |
| Tx:8.115 | because judgment is the setting of a price. And as you set it, you | will pay it. |
| Tx:8.116 | If paying is equated with getting, you | will set the price low but demand a high return. You will have |
| Tx:8.116 | getting, you will set the price low but demand a high return. You | will have forgotten, however, that [to price is to value, so] your |
| Tx:8.116 | as loss, and the reciprocal relationship of giving and receiving | will be recognized. The price will then be set high because of the |
| Tx:8.116 | relationship of giving and receiving will be recognized. The price | will then be set high because of the value of the return. The price |
| Tx:8.116 | for getting is to lose sight of value, making it inevitable that you | will not value what you receive. Valuing it little, you will not |
| Tx:8.116 | that you will not value what you receive. Valuing it little, you | will not appreciate it and will not want it. |
| Tx:8.116 | what you receive. Valuing it little, you will not appreciate it and | will not want it. |
| Tx:8.118 | where you see Him. If you see Him in everyone, consider how much you | will be asking of Him and how much you will receive. He will deny you |
| Tx:8.118 | consider how much you will be asking of Him and how much you | will receive. He will deny you nothing because you have denied Him |
| Tx:8.118 | how much you will be asking of Him and how much you will receive. He | will deny you nothing because you have denied Him nothing, and so you |

| Tx:9.8 | Do not undertake His function, or you | will forget yours. Accept only the function of healing in time, |
| Tx:9.8 | you have made. Give it to Him! You do not know how to use it. He | will teach you how to see yourself without condemnation by learning |
| Tx:9.8 | by learning how to look on everything without it. Condemnation | will then not be real to you, and all your errors will be forgiven. |

| Tx:9.9 | beyond error, and do not let your perception rest upon it, for you | will believe what your perception holds. Accept as true only what |
| Tx:9.10 | to correction. And if you do not follow this Guide, your errors | will not be corrected. The plan is not yours, because of your limited |
| Tx:9.11 | cannot look on your abilities through the eyes of the ego, or you | will judge them as it does. All their harmfulness lies in its |
| Tx:9.12 | of the right teacher. The ego's plan, of course, makes no sense and | will not work. By following it, you will merely place yourself in an |

| Tx:9.18 | of finding satisfaction in reality. Yet it is certain that he | will never find satisfaction in fantasy, so that his only hope is to |
| Tx:9.18 | only in fantasy. When you search for reality in fantasies, you | will not find it. The symbols of fantasy are of the ego, and of these |
| Tx:9.18 | not find it. The symbols of fantasy are of the ego, and of these you | will find many. But do not look for meaning in them. They have no |
| Tx:9.26 | Healing is not mysterious. Nothing | will occur unless you understand it, since light is understanding. A |
| Tx:9.27 | no longer believes in nightmares of any kind. The light in his mind | will therefore answer the questioner, who must decide with God that |
| Tx:9.28 | can only let Him fulfill His function. He needs no help for this. He | will tell you exactly what to do to help anyone He sends to you for |
| Tx:9.28 | you exactly what to do to help anyone He sends to you for help and | will speak to him through you if you do not interfere. Remember that |
| Tx:9.28 | that you are choosing a guide for helping, and the wrong choice | will not help. But remember also that the right one will. Trust Him, |
| Tx:9.28 | the wrong choice will not help. But remember also that the right one | will. Trust Him, for help is His function, and He is of God. |

| Tx:9.29 | that it works. Its results are more convincing than its words. They | will convince you that the words are true. By following the right |
| Tx:9.29 | you that the words are true. By following the right Guide you | will learn the simplest of all lessons— |
| Tx:9.32 | your evaluations of His consistency. When you are inconsistent, you | will not always give rise to joy and so you will not always recognize |
| Tx:9.32 | are inconsistent, you will not always give rise to joy and so you | will not always recognize His consistency. What you offer to your |
| Tx:9.32 | His giving, but simply because you have limited your receiving. The | will to receive is the will to accept. |
| Tx:9.32 | because you have limited your receiving. The will to receive is the | will to accept. |
| Tx:9.33 | If your brothers are part of you, | will you accept them? Only they can teach you what you are, and your |
| Tx:9.34 | from you. Therefore you can create as He did, and your dissociation | will not alter this. Neither God's light nor yours is dimmed because |
| Tx:9.34 | His Son, for knowledge is shared with God. When you awake in Him you | will know your magnitude by accepting His limitlessness as yours, but |
| Tx:9.34 | magnitude by accepting His limitlessness as yours, but meanwhile you | will judge it as you judge your brothers' and will accept it as you |
| Tx:9.34 | but meanwhile you will judge it as you judge your brothers' and | will accept it as you accept theirs. |
| Tx:9.35 | Holy Spirit teaches you to awaken others. As you see them waken, you | will learn what waking means, and because you have willed to wake |
| Tx:9.35 | their gratitude and their appreciation of what you have given them | will teach you its value. They will become the witnesses to your |
| Tx:9.35 | of what you have given them will teach you its value. They | will become the witnesses to your reality, as you were created |
| Tx:9.35 | Yet when the Sonship comes together and accepts its oneness, it | will be known by its creations, who witness to its reality as the Son |
| Tx:9.37 | your brother in this world and accept nothing else, for in him you | will find your creations, because he created them with you. You will |
| Tx:9.37 | you will find your creations, because he created them with you. You | will never know that you are co-creator with God until you learn that |
| Tx:9.38 | God's | Will is your salvation. Would He not have given you the means to find |
| Tx:9.38 | chance to save yourself. Do not lose these chances, not because they | will not return, but because delay of joy is needless. God wills you |
| Tx:9.38 | you perfect happiness now. Is it possible that this is not also your | will? And is it possible that this is not also the will of your |
| Tx:9.38 | is not also your will? And is it possible that this is not also the | will of your brothers? |
| Tx:9.39 | Consider, then, that in this joint | will you are all united, and in this only. There will be disagreement |
| Tx:9.39 | that in this joint will you are all united, and in this only. There | will be disagreement on anything else, but not on this. This, then, |
| Tx:9.42 | The ego | will begin to attack your motives as soon as they become clearly out |
| Tx:9.42 | clearly out of accord with its perception of you. This is when it | will shift abruptly from suspiciousness to viciousness, since its |
| Tx:9.42 | of what you are? If you are willing to see yourself as unloving, you | will not be happy. You are condemning yourself and must therefore |
| Tx:9.47 | Remember this when the ego speaks, and you | will not hear it. The truth about you is so lofty that nothing |
| Tx:9.47 | for you do not want anything else. Return your part of Him, and He | will give you all of Himself in exchange for your return of what |
| Tx:9.48 | of the ego is its alternative to the grandeur of God. Which | will you choose? |
| Tx:9.49 | as you despair of yourself. It shifts to viciousness whenever you | will not tolerate self-abasement and seek relief. Then it offers you |
| Tx:9.50 | withdraw to attack later. If you accept its offer of grandiosity, it | will attack immediately. If you do not, it will wait. |
| Tx:9.50 | offer of grandiosity, it will attack immediately. If you do not, it | will wait. |
| Tx:9.51 | real, it is compellingly convincing. Yet the conviction of reality | will not remain with you unless you do not allow the ego to attack |
| Tx:9.51 | with you unless you do not allow the ego to attack it. The ego | will make every effort to recover and mobilize its energies against |
| Tx:9.51 | effort to recover and mobilize its energies against your release. It | will tell you that you are insane and argue that grandeur cannot be a |
| Tx:9.52 | be anywhere except in the Mind of God. When you forget this, you | will despair, and you will attack. |
| Tx:9.52 | in the Mind of God. When you forget this, you will despair, and you | will attack. |
| Tx:9.54 | Yet it must be insane because it is not true. Your grandeur | will never deceive you, but your illusions always will. Illusions are |
| Tx:9.54 | Your grandeur will never deceive you, but your illusions always | will. Illusions are deceptions. You cannot triumph, but you are |
| Tx:9.55 | from grandiosity because love is returned, but pride is not. Pride | will not produce miracles and therefore will deprive you of your true |
| Tx:9.55 | but pride is not. Pride will not produce miracles and therefore | will deprive you of your true witnesses to your reality. Truth is not |
| Tx:9.56 | it, the Holy Spirit cannot use it. What He cannot transform to the | Will of God does not exist at all. Grandiosity is delusional, because |
| Tx:9.58 | does not vary. It merely is. Ask the Holy Spirit what it is and He | will tell you, but do not be afraid of His answer, for it comes from |
| Tx:9.59 | nothing is beyond you. Time and eternity are both in your mind and | will conflict until you perceive time solely as a means to regain |
| Tx:9.60 | you are God's only creation, and He created you eternal? Your holy | will establishes everything that happens to you. Every response you |
| Tx:9.60 | you make to everything you perceive is up to you, because your | will determines your perception of it. |
| Tx:9.61 | to create for your self so you could be like Him. That is why your | will is holy. Can anything exceed the love of God? Can anything, |
| Tx:9.61 | Can anything exceed the love of God? Can anything, then, exceed your | will? Nothing can reach you from beyond it because, being in God, you |
| Tx:9.61 | being in God, you encompass everything. Believe this, and you | will realize how much is up to you. When anything threatens your |
| Tx:9.63 | changeless, and refuse to change your mind about yourself. God | will never decide against you, or He would be deciding against |
| Tx:9.65 | of exile but perfectly capable of awakening to reality. Is it your | will to do so? You know from your own experience that what you see in |
| Tx:9.66 | yet that it once was so. And it is in this remembering that you | will know it can be so again. What is possible has not yet been |
| Tx:9.66 | has once been is so now if it is eternal. When you remember, you | will know what you remember is eternal and therefore is now. |
| Tx:9.67 | You | will remember everything the instant you desire it wholly, for if to |
| Tx:9.67 | you desire it wholly, for if to desire wholly is to create, you | will have willed away the separation, returning your mind |
| Tx:9.67 | simultaneously to your Creator and your creations. Knowing them, you | will have no wish to sleep but only the will to waken and be glad. |
| Tx:9.67 | creations. Knowing them, you will have no wish to sleep but only the | will to waken and be glad. Dreams will be impossible, because you |
| Tx:9.67 | have no wish to sleep but only the will to waken and be glad. Dreams | will be impossible, because you will want only truth, and being at |
| Tx:9.67 | will to waken and be glad. Dreams will be impossible, because you | will want only truth, and being at last your will, it will be yours. |
| Tx:9.67 | impossible, because you will want only truth, and being at last your | will, it will be yours. |
| Tx:9.67 | because you will want only truth, and being at last your will, it | will be yours. |
| Tx:9.69 | and peace and the glory of creation. Offer the Holy Spirit only your | will to remember, for He retains the knowledge of God and of yourself |
| Tx:9.69 | way of your remembering, for God is in your memory, and His Voice | will tell you that you are part of Him when you are willing to |
| Tx:9.70 | world is the perceptual counterpart of creating in the Kingdom. God | will do His part if you will do yours, and His return in exchange for |
| Tx:9.70 | counterpart of creating in the Kingdom. God will do His part if you | will do yours, and His return in exchange for yours is the exchange |
| Tx:9.70 | is the exchange of knowledge for perception. Nothing is beyond His | Will for you. But signify your will to remember Him and behold! He |
| Tx:9.70 | for perception. Nothing is beyond His Will for you. But signify your | will to remember Him and behold! He will give you everything but for |
| Tx:9.70 | Will for you. But signify your will to remember Him and behold! He | will give you everything but for the asking. |
| Tx:9.71 | defenses always constitutes an attack on truth and truth is God, you | will realize why this is always fearful. If you further recognize |
| Tx:9.71 | fearful. If you further recognize that you are part of God, you | will understand why it is that you always attack yourself first. |
| Tx:9.73 | Yet the logical outcome of your decision is perfectly clear if you | will look at it. By deciding against your reality, you have made |
| Tx:9.74 | God, and you do love Him. Can you change your reality? No one can | will to destroy himself. When you think you are attacking yourself, |
| Tx:9.75 | have them released from their sickness and returned to His Mind. He | will not limit your power to help them, because He has given it to |
| Tx:9.78 | willing to keep it hidden and to protect this idol, which you think | will save you from the dangers which the idol itself stands for, but |
| Tx:9.80 | mind is not idolatrous and does not know of conflicting laws. I | will heal you merely because I have only one message, and it is true. |
| Tx:9.80 | because I have only one message, and it is true. Your faith in it | will make you whole when you have faith in me. |
| Tx:9.81 | I do not bring God's message with deception, and you | will learn this as you learn that you always receive as much as you |
| Tx:9.81 | because you heard. But have no other gods before Him, or you | will not hear. God is not jealous of the gods you make, but you are. |
| Tx:9.82 | really afraid of nothing. And in that awareness you are healed. You | will hear the god you listen to. You made the god of sickness, and by |
| Tx:9.82 | able to hear him. Yet you did not create him, because he is not the | Will of the Father. He is therefore not eternal and will be unmade |
| Tx:9.82 | he is not the Will of the Father. He is therefore not eternal and | will be unmade for you the instant you signify your willingness to |
| Tx:9.83 | only because you honor them. Place honor where it is due, and peace | will be yours. It is your inheritance from your real Father. You |
| Tx:9.84 | Only at the altar of God | will you find peace. And this altar is in you, because God put it |
| Tx:9.84 | God put it there. His Voice still calls you to return, and He | will be heard when you place no other gods before Him. You can give |
| Tx:9.84 | see him anywhere, you have accepted him. And if you accept him, you | will bow down and worship him because he was made as God's |
| Tx:9.85 | you are afraid of him, because he cannot be reconciled with God's | Will. If you attack him, you will make him real to you. But if you |
| Tx:9.85 | he cannot be reconciled with God's Will. If you attack him, you | will make him real to you. But if you refuse to worship him in |
| Tx:9.85 | form he may appear to you and wherever you think you see him, he | will disappear into the nothingness out of which he was made. |
| Tx:9.87 | be divided. If you perceive other gods, your mind is split, and you | will not be able to limit the split because the split is the sign |
| Tx:9.87 | split is the sign that you have removed part of your mind from God's | Will, and this means it is out of control. To be out of control is to |
| Tx:9.88 | God's laws | will keep your minds at peace, because peace is His Will, and His |
| Tx:9.88 | God's laws will keep your minds at peace, because peace is His | Will, and His laws are established to uphold it. His are the laws of |
| Tx:9.89 | but the laws of God has ever operated, and nothing except His | Will will ever be. You were created through His laws and by His Will, |
| Tx:9.89 | but the laws of God has ever operated, and nothing except His Will | will ever be. You were created through His laws and by His Will, and |
| Tx:9.89 | His Will will ever be. You were created through His laws and by His | Will, and the manner of your creation established you as creators. |
| Tx:9.89 | you could hardly want it if you were willing to see it as it is. You | will see nothing at all. And your vision will automatically look |
| Tx:9.89 | to see it as it is. You will see nothing at all. And your vision | will automatically look beyond it to what is in you and all around |
| Tx:9.89 | Reality cannot break through the obstructions you interpose, but it | will envelop you completely when you let them go. |
| Tx:9.92 | never be completely forgotten. If you but see the little spark, you | will learn of the greater light, for the rays are there unseen. |
| Tx:9.92 | greater light, for the rays are there unseen. Perceiving the spark | will heal, but knowing the light will create. Yet in the returning, |
| Tx:9.92 | there unseen. Perceiving the spark will heal, but knowing the light | will create. Yet in the returning, the little light must be |
| Tx:9.92 | call of creation. Put all your faith in it, and God Himself | will answer you. |
| Tx:9.94 | Do not forget, however, that to deny God | will inevitably result in projection, and you will believe that |
| Tx:9.94 | that to deny God will inevitably result in projection, and you | will believe that others, and not yourself, have done this to you. |
| Tx:9.94 | believe that others, and not yourself, have done this to you. You | will receive the message you give, because it is the message you |
| Tx:9.96 | Sickness and death entered the Mind of God's Son against His | Will. The “attack on God” made His Son think he was fatherless, and |
| Tx:9.98 | but you have been much mistaken. Yet this can be corrected, and God | will help you, knowing that you could not sin against Him. You denied |
| Tx:9.99 | for His Son. If you hear His message, He has answered you, and you | will learn of Him if you hear aright. The love of God is in |
| Tx:9.99 | His Son is everywhere. Look with peace upon your brothers, and God | will come rushing into your heart in gratitude for your gift to Him. |
| Tx:9.100 | healing is the acknowledgment of Him. When you acknowledge Him, you | will know that He has never ceased to acknowledge you and that in His |
| Tx:9.101 | If you | will accept yourself as God created you, you will be incapable of |
| Tx:9.101 | If you will accept yourself as God created you, you | will be incapable of suffering. Yet to do this, you must acknowledge |
| Tx:9.101 | you must acknowledge Him as your Creator. This is not because you | will be punished otherwise. It is merely because your acknowledgment |
| Tx:9.102 | Him, you were insane. Would you have Him share your insanity? God | will never cease to love His Son, and His Son will never cease to |
| Tx:9.102 | your insanity? God will never cease to love His Son, and His Son | will never cease to love Him. That was the condition of His Son's |
| Tx:9.103 | Out of your gifts to Him, the Kingdom | will be restored to His Son. His Son removed himself from His gift by |
| Tx:9.103 | given you the means for undoing what you have made. Listen, and you | will learn what you are. |
| Tx:9.106 | Only if you accept the Fatherhood of God | will you have anything, because His fatherhood gave you everything. |
| Tx:9.106 | to you to be desirable, the concept of choice, which is not of God, | will remain with you. While this is not true in eternity, it is true |
| Tx:9.106 | it is true in time, so that while time lasts in your minds, there | will be choices. Time itself was your choice. |
| Tx:9.107 | cannot both be real, because they contradict each other. If you | will accept only what is timeless as real, you will begin to |
| Tx:9.107 | each other. If you will accept only what is timeless as real, you | will begin to understand eternity and make it yours. |
| Tx:10.1 | Either God or the ego is insane. If you | will examine the evidence on both sides fairly, you will realize that |
| Tx:10.1 | insane. If you will examine the evidence on both sides fairly, you | will realize that this must be true. Neither God nor the ego proposes |
| Tx:10.1 | is always an answer to the question, “Who is my father?” And you | will be faithful to the father you choose. |
| Tx:10.2 | the ego, which you made, is your father, or its whole thought system | will not stand. |
| Tx:10.3 | terror on which it rests and bring it out into the light. There you | will see that it rests on meaninglessness and that everything of |
| Tx:10.4 | have at last looked at the ego's foundation without shrinking, you | will also have looked upon ours. I come to you from our Father to |
| Tx:10.4 | it in order to keep a dark cornerstone hidden, for its protection | will not save you. I give you the lamp and I will go with you. You |
| Tx:10.4 | for its protection will not save you. I give you the lamp and I | will go with you. You will not take this journey alone. I will lead |
| Tx:10.4 | will not save you. I give you the lamp and I will go with you. You | will not take this journey alone. I will lead you to your true |
| Tx:10.4 | lamp and I will go with you. You will not take this journey alone. I | will lead you to your true Father, Who hath need of you as I have. |
| Tx:10.4 | I will lead you to your true Father, Who hath need of you as I have. | Will you not answer the call of love with joy? |
| Tx:10.5 | in this lies the beginning of knowledge, the foundation on which God | will help you build again the thought system which you share with |
| Tx:10.5 | system which you share with Him. Not one stone you place upon it but | will be blessed by Him, for you will be restoring the holy dwelling |
| Tx:10.5 | Not one stone you place upon it but will be blessed by Him, for you | will be restoring the holy dwelling place of His Son, where He wills |
| Tx:10.5 | dwell in the Mind of God with your brother, for God Himself did not | will to be alone. |
| Tx:10.7 | If you were not part of God, His | Will would not be unified. Is this conceivable? Can part of His Mind |
| Tx:10.8 | for God holds for you. If you believe you are absent from God, you | will believe that He is absent from you. |
| Tx:10.9 | God is not incomplete, and He is not childless. Because He did not | will to be alone, He created a Son like Himself. Do not deny Him His |
| Tx:10.9 | the ability to see. Look upon the glory of His creation, and you | will learn what God has kept for you. |
| Tx:10.10 | Could you be alone there if it was given you because God did not | will to be alone? God's Mind cannot be lessened. It can only be |
| Tx:10.10 | and what it creates is not limited. To give without limit is God's | Will for you because only this can bring you the joy which is His and |
| Tx:10.11 | fatherhood and your Father are one. God willed to create, and your | will is His. It follows, then, that you will to create since your |
| Tx:10.11 | willed to create, and your will is His. It follows, then, that you | will to create since your will follows from His. And being an |
| Tx:10.11 | will is His. It follows, then, that you will to create since your | will follows from His. And being an extension of His Will, yours must |
| Tx:10.11 | since your will follows from His. And being an extension of His | Will, yours must be the same. |
| Tx:10.12 | Yet what you | will you do not know. This is not strange when you realize that to |
| Tx:10.12 | is not strange when you realize that to deny is to “not know.” God's | Will is that you are His Son. By denying this, you denied your own |
| Tx:10.12 | Will is that you are His Son. By denying this, you denied your own | will and therefore do not know what it is. The reason you must ask |
| Tx:10.12 | therefore do not know what it is. The reason you must ask what God's | Will is in everything is merely because it is yours. You do not know |
| Tx:10.12 | the Holy Spirit remembers it for you. Ask Him, therefore, what God's | Will is for you, and He will tell you yours. It cannot be too often |
| Tx:10.12 | it for you. Ask Him, therefore, what God's Will is for you, and He | will tell you yours. It cannot be too often repeated that you do not |
| Tx:10.12 | to be coercive, it is only because you do not recognize your own | will. |
| Tx:10.13 | The projection of the ego makes it appear as if God's | Will is outside yourself and therefore not yours. In this |
| Tx:10.13 | not yours. In this interpretation, it is possible for God's | Will and yours to conflict. God then may seem to demand of you what |
| Tx:10.13 | thus deprive you of what you want. Would God, who wants only your | will, be capable of this? Your will is His Life, which He has given |
| Tx:10.13 | want. Would God, who wants only your will, be capable of this? Your | will is His Life, which He has given to you. Even in time you cannot |
| Tx:10.13 | What He created can sleep, but it cannot die. Immortality is His | Will for His Son and His Son's will for himself. God's Son cannot |
| Tx:10.13 | but it cannot die. Immortality is His Will for His Son and His Son's | will for himself. God's Son cannot will death for himself because His |
| Tx:10.13 | Will for His Son and His Son's will for himself. God's Son cannot | will death for himself because His Father is Life and His Son is like |
| Tx:10.13 | because His Father is Life and His Son is like Him. Creation is your | will because it is His. |
| Tx:10.14 | You cannot be happy unless you do what you | will truly, and you cannot change this because it is immutable. It is |
| Tx:10.14 | cannot change this because it is immutable. It is immutable by God's | Will and yours, for otherwise His Will would not have been extended. |
| Tx:10.14 | It is immutable by God's Will and yours, for otherwise His | Will would not have been extended. You are afraid to know God's Will |
| Tx:10.14 | His Will would not have been extended. You are afraid to know God's | Will because you believe it is not yours. This belief is your whole |
| Tx:10.15 | for you. He is the Voice for God, but never forget that God did not | will to be alone. He shares His Will with you; He does not thrust it |
| Tx:10.15 | but never forget that God did not will to be alone. He shares His | Will with you; He does not thrust it upon you. Always remember that |
| Tx:10.15 | for sharing is knowing. Blessed are you who learn that to hear the | Will of your Father is to know your own. For it is your will to be |
| Tx:10.15 | to hear the Will of your Father is to know your own. For it is your | will to be like Him, Whose Will it is that it be so. God's Will is |
| Tx:10.15 | is to know your own. For it is your will to be like Him, Whose | Will it is that it be so. God's Will is that His Son be one, and |
| Tx:10.15 | is your will to be like Him, Whose Will it is that it be so. God's | Will is that His Son be one, and united with Him in His Oneness. That |
| Tx:10.15 | That is why healing is the beginning of the recognition that your | will is His. |
| Tx:10.16 | If sickness is separation, the | will to heal and be healed is the first step toward recognizing what |
| Tx:10.16 | both Father and Son. To unite having and being is only to unite your | will with His, for He wills you Himself. And you will yourself to Him |
| Tx:10.16 | only to unite your will with His, for He wills you Himself. And you | will yourself to Him because, in your perfect understanding of Him, |
| Tx:10.16 | in your perfect understanding of Him, you know there is but one | will. Yet when you attack any part of God and His Kingdom, your |
| Tx:10.16 | God and His Kingdom, your understanding is not perfect, and what you | will is therefore lost to you. |
| Tx:10.18 | as love. You cannot deny part of yourself because the remainder | will seem to be unintegrated and therefore without meaning. And being |
| Tx:10.18 | and therefore without meaning. And being without meaning to you, you | will not understand it. To deny meaning must be to fail to |
| Tx:10.18 | himself and therefore knows not what he does. Having forgotten his | will, he does not know what he wants. |
| Tx:10.19 | ears to the Voice of the Holy Spirit, whose message is wholeness. He | will enable you to go far beyond the healing you would undertake, for |
| Tx:10.19 | would undertake, for beside your small willingness to make whole, He | will lay His own complete will and make yours whole. What can the Son |
| Tx:10.19 | your small willingness to make whole, He will lay His own complete | will and make yours whole. What can the Son of God not accomplish |
| Tx:10.19 | you, for you have surely learned that whom you invite as your guest | will abide with you. |
| Tx:10.20 | The Holy Spirit cannot speak to an unwelcoming host because He | will not be heard. The Eternal Guest remains, but His Voice grows |
| Tx:10.20 | Guest. Whenever you ask the ego to enter, you lessen His welcome. He | will remain, but you have allied yourself against Him. Whatever |
| Tx:10.20 | allied yourself against Him. Whatever journey you choose to take, He | will go with you, waiting. You can safely trust His patience, for He |
| Tx:10.21 | You | will never rest until you know your function and fulfill it, for only |
| Tx:10.21 | you know your function and fulfill it, for only in this can your | will and your Father's be wholly joined. To have Him is to be like |
| Tx:10.21 | Invite this knowledge back into your minds, and let nothing that | will obscure it enter. The Guest whom God sent you will teach you how |
| Tx:10.21 | let nothing that will obscure it enter. The Guest whom God sent you | will teach you how to do this if you but recognize the little spark |
| Tx:10.21 | grow. Your willingness need not be perfect, because His is. If you | will merely offer Him a little place, He will lighten it so much that |
| Tx:10.21 | because His is. If you will merely offer Him a little place, He | will lighten it so much that you will gladly extend it. And by this |
| Tx:10.21 | merely offer Him a little place, He will lighten it so much that you | will gladly extend it. And by this extending, you will begin to |
| Tx:10.21 | so much that you will gladly extend it. And by this extending, you | will begin to remember creation. |
| Tx:10.22 | Would you be hostage to the ego or host to God? You | will accept only whom you invite. You are free to determine who shall |
| Tx:10.23 | When you are weary, remember you have hurt yourself. Your Comforter | will rest you, but you cannot. You do not know how, for if you did |
| Tx:10.23 | yourselves, you could never suffer in any way, for that is not God's | Will for His Son. Pain is not of Him, for He knows no attack and His |
| Tx:10.24 | in need of comfort, for he knows not what he does, believing his | will is not his own. The Kingdom is his, and yet he wanders |
| Tx:10.24 | brothers, he is friendless. Would God let this be real if He did not | will to be alone Himself? And if your will is His, it cannot be true |
| Tx:10.24 | let this be real if He did not will to be alone Himself? And if your | will is His, it cannot be true of you because it is not true of Him. |
| Tx:10.25 | When the light comes and you have said, “God's | Will is mine,” you will see such beauty that you will know it is not |
| Tx:10.25 | When the light comes and you have said, “God's Will is mine,” you | will see such beauty that you will know it is not of you. Out of your |
| Tx:10.25 | have said, “God's Will is mine,” you will see such beauty that you | will know it is not of you. Out of your joy you will create beauty in |
| Tx:10.25 | such beauty that you will know it is not of you. Out of your joy you | will create beauty in His name, for your joy could no more be |
| Tx:10.25 | your joy could no more be contained than His. The bleak little world | will vanish into nothingness, and your heart will be so filled with |
| Tx:10.25 | The bleak little world will vanish into nothingness, and your heart | will be so filled with joy that it will leap into Heaven and into the |
| Tx:10.25 | into nothingness, and your heart will be so filled with joy that it | will leap into Heaven and into the Presence of God. I cannot tell you |
| Tx:10.25 | Heaven and into the Presence of God. I cannot tell you what this | will be like, for your hearts are not ready. Yet I can tell you and |
| Tx:10.27 | him to be glorious and gave him the light that shines in him. You | will never lose your way, for God leads you. When you wander, you but |
| Tx:10.28 | are no other gods that you can place before Him, and accept His | Will for you in peace. For you cannot accept it otherwise. |
| Tx:10.29 | find it waiting for you. But be holy in the Presence of God, or you | will not know that you are there. For what is unlike God cannot enter |
| Tx:10.30 | Sonship and bless it with the light your Father gave it. Then you | will be worthy to dwell in the temple with Him because it is your |
| Tx:10.30 | will be worthy to dwell in the temple with Him because it is your | will not to be alone. God blessed His Son forever. If you will bless |
| Tx:10.30 | it is your will not to be alone. God blessed His Son forever. If you | will bless him in time, you will be in eternity. Time cannot separate |
| Tx:10.30 | God blessed His Son forever. If you will bless him in time, you | will be in eternity. Time cannot separate you from God if you use it |
| Tx:10.32 | deny your Father is still for your protection, for the power of your | will cannot be lessened without the intervention of God against it, |
| Tx:10.32 | of God against it, and any limitation on your power is not the | Will of God. Therefore, look only to the power that God gave to save |
| Tx:10.33 | that you can only darken your own mind. As you bring him back, so | will your mind return. That is the law of God for the protection of |
| Tx:10.35 | His Son. When His Son lifts his voice in praise of his Creator, he | will hear the Voice of his Father. Yet the Creator cannot be praised |
| Tx:10.36 | His Son. But come wholly without condemnation, for otherwise you | will believe that the door is barred and you cannot enter. The door |
| Tx:10.38 | the Father, the Son must share what belongs to Him, for otherwise he | will not know the Father or the Son. Peace be unto you who rest in |
| Tx:10.39 | at the ego's thought system because together we have the lamp that | will dispel it, and since you realize you do not want it, you must be |
| Tx:10.39 | we are merely looking honestly for truth. The “dynamics” of the ego | will be our lesson for a while, for we must look first at this to |
| Tx:10.39 | look first at this to look beyond it since you have made it real. We | will undo this error quietly together and then look beyond it to |
| Tx:10.40 | without protecting them? Be not afraid, therefore, for what you | will be looking at is the source of fear, but you have surely learned |
| Tx:10.44 | being out of accord with your true nature. We once said that to | will contrary to God is wishful thinking and not real willing. His |
| Tx:10.44 | will contrary to God is wishful thinking and not real willing. His | Will is one because the extension of His Will cannot be unlike |
| Tx:10.44 | and not real willing. His Will is one because the extension of His | Will cannot be unlike itself. The real conflict you experience, then, |
| Tx:10.44 | you experience, then, is between the ego's idle wishes and the | Will of God, which you share. Can this be a real conflict? |
| Tx:10.49 | For though you may countenance a false idea of independence, you | will not accept the cost of fear if you recognize it. Yet this is the |
| Tx:10.51 | is yours and happiness cannot be found apart from your joint | will. Recognize only that the ego's goal, which you have pursued |
| Tx:10.52 | not insane and cannot believe it. Let him but recognize it, and he | will not accept it. For only the insane would choose fear in place of |
| Tx:10.53 | without meaningful relationships and thus without meaning. The ego | will always substitute chaos for meaning, for if separation is |
| Tx:10.57 | Would you remember the Father? Accept His Son, and you | will remember Him. Nothing can demonstrate that His Son is unworthy, |
| Tx:10.57 | Son is, the Father must be. Accept what God does not deny, and He | will demonstrate its truth. The witnesses for God stand in His light |
| Tx:10.58 | want to be true. Every brother has the power to release you if you | will to be free. You cannot accept false witness of him unless you |
| Tx:10.58 | You hear but your own voice, and if Christ speaks through you, you | will hear Him. |
| Tx:10.59 | seen and still believe,” for those who believe in the resurrection | will see it. The resurrection is the complete triumph of Christ over |
| Tx:10.61 | teaches. I am leading you to a new kind of experience, which you | will become less and less willing to deny. Learning of Christ is |
| Tx:10.61 | of God's Son. For until Christ comes into His own, the Son of God | will see himself as fatherless. |
| Tx:10.62 | and it has been accomplished in you. This is as true now as it | will ever be, for the resurrection is the Will of God, which knows no |
| Tx:10.62 | This is as true now as it will ever be, for the resurrection is the | Will of God, which knows no time and no exceptions. But make no |
| Tx:10.62 | no time and no exceptions. But make no exceptions yourself, or you | will not perceive what has been accomplished for you. For we ascend |
| Tx:10.63 | him. That is why his slavery is as complete as his freedom, for he | will obey only the god he accepts. The god of the crucifixion demands |
| Tx:10.63 | pain. The God of the resurrection demands nothing, for He does not | will to take away. He does not require obedience, for obedience |
| Tx:10.63 | obedience implies submission. He would only have you learn your own | will and follow it, not in the spirit of sacrifice and submission, |
| Tx:10.64 | yours with them. Guard them in their resurrection, for otherwise you | will not awake in God, safely surrounded by what is yours forever. |
| Tx:10.65 | You | will not find peace until you have removed the nails from the hands |
| Tx:10.66 | thorns upon your own head. Yet you cannot crucify God's Son, for the | Will of God cannot die. His Son has been redeemed from his own |
| Tx:10.67 | You | will awaken to your own call, for the Call to awake is within you. If |
| Tx:10.67 | you are awake. Yet you must see the works I do through you, or you | will not perceive that I have done them unto you. Do not set limits |
| Tx:10.67 | Do not set limits on what you believe I can do through you, or you | will not accept what I can do for you. For it is done already, and |
| Tx:10.67 | is done already, and unless you give all that you have received, you | will not know that your Redeemer liveth and that you have awakened |
| Tx:10.68 | God's Son is saved. Bring only this awareness to the Sonship, and you | will have a part in the redemption as valuable as mine. For your part |
| Tx:10.68 | of God is in every part of Him, and nothing contradictory to His | Will is either great or small. What does not exist has no size and no |
| Tx:10.71 | is like Him. Only this is the real world, and perceiving only this | will lead you to the real Heaven because it will make you capable of |
| Tx:10.71 | and perceiving only this will lead you to the real Heaven because it | will make you capable of understanding it. |
| Tx:10.72 | awareness, you have not met its conditions, and until you do you | will not know that it is yours already. You have made many ideas |
| Tx:10.73 | that you can know yourself. You can know God because it is His | Will to be known. The real world is all that the Holy Spirit has |
| Tx:10.74 | But do you believe it? When you have perceived the real world, you | will recognize that you did not believe it. Yet the swiftness with |
| Tx:10.74 | it. Yet the swiftness with which your new and only real perception | will be translated into knowledge will leave you only an instant to |
| Tx:10.74 | your new and only real perception will be translated into knowledge | will leave you only an instant to realize that this judgment is true. |
| Tx:10.75 | And then everything you made | will be forgotten, the good and the bad, the false and the true. For |
| Tx:10.75 | the true. For as Heaven and earth become one, even the real world | will vanish from your sight. The end of the world is not its |
| Tx:10.75 | you. Yet the Holy Spirit has saved its meaning for you, and if you | will let Him interpret it for you, He will restore what you have |
| Tx:10.75 | meaning for you, and if you will let Him interpret it for you, He | will restore what you have thrown away. As long as you think you know |
| Tx:10.75 | you have thrown away. As long as you think you know its meaning, you | will see no need to ask it of Him. |
| Tx:10.77 | No one can withhold truth except from himself. Yet God | will not refuse the answer He gave you. Ask, then, for what is yours |
| Tx:10.79 | Decide for the answer and you | will have it, for you will see it as it is, and it is yours already. |
| Tx:10.79 | Decide for the answer and you will have it, for you | will see it as it is, and it is yours already. |
| Tx:10.80 | be more specific than to be told very clearly that if you ask you | will receive. The Holy Spirit will answer every specific problem as |
| Tx:10.80 | told very clearly that if you ask you will receive. The Holy Spirit | will answer every specific problem as long as you believe that |
| Tx:10.80 | that you are afraid of His specificity for fear of what you think it | will demand of you. Yet only by asking will you learn that nothing |
| Tx:10.80 | for fear of what you think it will demand of you. Yet only by asking | will you learn that nothing that is of God demands anything of you. |
| Tx:10.81 | is taking, and you do not perceive it as sharing. The Holy Spirit | will give you only what is yours and will take nothing in return. For |
| Tx:10.81 | it as sharing. The Holy Spirit will give you only what is yours and | will take nothing in return. For what is yours is everything, and you |
| Tx:10.82 | Do not deny it to yourself, for it can only free you. Nothing of God | will enslave His Son, whom He created free and whose freedom is |
| Tx:10.83 | Blessed are you who | will ask the truth of God without fear, for only thus can you learn |
| Tx:10.83 | anyone who asks it of him. Ask anything of God's Son and His Father | will answer you, for Christ is not deceived in His Father, and His |
| Tx:10.84 | thoughts as his reality, for by denying that his mind is split, you | will heal yours. Accept him as his Father accepts him and heal him |
| Tx:10.85 | As you become willing to accept this Help by asking for it, you | will give it because you want it. Nothing will be beyond your healing |
| Tx:10.85 | Help by asking for it, you will give it because you want it. Nothing | will be beyond your healing power because nothing will be denied your |
| Tx:10.85 | want it. Nothing will be beyond your healing power because nothing | will be denied your simple request. What problems will not disappear |
| Tx:10.85 | because nothing will be denied your simple request. What problems | will not disappear in the presence of God's answer? Ask, then, to |
| Tx:10.85 | to learn of the reality of your brother because this is what you | will perceive in him, and you will see your beauty reflected in him. |
| Tx:10.85 | your brother because this is what you will perceive in him, and you | will see your beauty reflected in him. |
| Tx:10.86 | variable perception of himself, for his split mind is yours, and you | will not accept your healing without his. For you share the real |
| Tx:10.86 | one with his Father. Love him who is beloved of His Father, and you | will learn of the Father's love for you. |
| Tx:10.89 | they are of the Teacher of Reality, and hearing His answer, you too | will laugh at your fears and replace them with peace. For fear lies |
| Tx:10.89 | to perceive truly, they are not afraid. And because of this, they | will ask for truth again when they are frightened. It is not the |
| Tx:10.89 | and dragons. Ask of their reality from the One who knows it, and He | will tell you what they are. For you do not understand them, and |
| Tx:10.90 | Yet you can learn the truth of yourself of the Holy Spirit, who | will teach you that, as part of God, deceit in you is impossible. |
| Tx:10.90 | in you is impossible. When you perceive yourself without deceit, you | will accept the real world in place of the false one you have made. |
| Tx:10.90 | world in place of the false one you have made. And then your Father | will lean down to you and take the last step for you by raising you |
| Tx:11.1 | is really trying to attack you or desert you or enslave you, you | will respond as if he had actually done so, because you have made his |
| Tx:11.1 | To interpret error is to give it power, and having done this, you | will overlook truth. |
| Tx:11.4 | If you maintain that an appeal for help is something else, you | will react to something else, and your response will be inappropriate |
| Tx:11.4 | something else, you will react to something else, and your response | will be inappropriate to reality as it is but not to your perception |
| Tx:11.6 | answering his appeal can you be helped. Deny him your help, and you | will not perceive God's answer to you. The Holy Spirit does not need |
| Tx:11.7 | help yourselves. But hear his call for the help of God, and you | will recognize your own need for the Father. |
| Tx:11.8 | are asking for it, and if you perceive but one need in yourself, you | will be healed. For you will recognize God's answer as you want it to |
| Tx:11.8 | you perceive but one need in yourself, you will be healed. For you | will recognize God's answer as you want it to be, and if you want it |
| Tx:11.8 | God's answer as you want it to be, and if you want it in truth, it | will be truly yours. Every appeal you answer in the name of Christ |
| Tx:11.9 | of the reactions of others more and more consistently, you | will gain an increasing awareness that His criteria are equally |
| Tx:11.9 | how well the Holy Spirit's interpretation of the motives of others | will serve you then. |
| Tx:11.10 | is what recognizing it really means. If you do not protect it, He | will reinterpret it. That is the ultimate value to you in learning to |
| Tx:11.13 | replace fear with love and translate error into truth. And thus | will you learn of Him how to replace your dream of separation with |
| Tx:11.16 | offer himself. Whatever the sickness, there is but one remedy. You | will be made whole as you make whole, for to perceive in sickness the |
| Tx:11.17 | it, their fears vanish, but if they hide their nightmares, they | will keep them. It is easy to help an uncertain child, for he |
| Tx:11.18 | the covers and look at what you are afraid of. Only the anticipation | will frighten you, for the reality of nothingness cannot be |
| Tx:11.18 | be frightening. Let us not delay this, for your dream of hatred | will not leave you without help, and help is here. Learn to be quiet |
| Tx:11.19 | was given you by God, and you must accomplish it because it is His | Will. Awake and remember your purpose, for it is your will to do so. |
| Tx:11.19 | it is His Will. Awake and remember your purpose, for it is your | will to do so. What has been accomplished for you must be yours. Do |
| Tx:11.20 | A little while and you | will see me, for I am not hidden because you are hiding. I will |
| Tx:11.20 | and you will see me, for I am not hidden because you are hiding. I | will awaken you as surely as I awakened myself, for I awoke for you. |
| Tx:11.20 | not redemption. Trust in my help, for I did not walk alone, and I | will walk with you as our Father walked with me. Did you not know |
| Tx:11.21 | There is no fear in perfect love. We | will but be making perfect to you what is already perfect in you. You |
| Tx:11.21 | perfect in you. You do not fear the unknown, but the known. You | will not fail in your mission because I failed not in mine. Give me |
| Tx:11.21 | little trust in the name of the complete trust I have in you, and we | will easily accomplish the goal of perfection together. For |
| Tx:11.22 | to banish love have not succeeded, but you who choose to banish fear | will succeed. The Lord is with you, but you know it not. Yet your |
| Tx:11.22 | it, not by denying its full import in any way—this is what you | will really see. You cannot lay aside the obstacle to real vision |
| Tx:11.22 | looking upon it, for to lay aside means to judge against. If you | will look, the Holy Spirit will judge and will judge truly. He cannot |
| Tx:11.22 | lay aside means to judge against. If you will look, the Holy Spirit | will judge and will judge truly. He cannot shine away what you keep |
| Tx:11.22 | to judge against. If you will look, the Holy Spirit will judge and | will judge truly. He cannot shine away what you keep hidden, for you |
| Tx:11.23 | for otherwise His knowledge remains useless to you. Surely He | will not fail to help you, since help is His only purpose. Do you not |
| Tx:11.28 | to believe even for an instant that there is another answer. For you | will surely place yourself among the poor, who do not understand that |
| Tx:11.33 | He would not have it so, and so it is not so. You still could not | will against Him, and that is why you have no control over the world |
| Tx:11.33 | you have no control over the world you made. It is not a world of | will because it is governed by the desire to be unlike Him, and this |
| Tx:11.33 | is governed by the desire to be unlike Him, and this desire is not | will. The world you made is therefore totally chaotic, governed by |
| Tx:11.34 | it is outside of yourself, for only by recognizing where it is | will you gain control over it. For you do have control over your mind |
| Tx:11.34 | over your mind since the mind is the mechanism of decision. If you | will recognize that all attack which you perceive is in your own mind |
| Tx:11.34 | attack which you perceive is in your own mind and nowhere else, you | will at last have placed its source, and where it began it must end. |
| Tx:11.35 | of the world to this altar, for it is the altar to truth. There you | will see your vision changed, and there you will learn to see truly. |
| Tx:11.35 | to truth. There you will see your vision changed, and there you | will learn to see truly. From this place, where God and His Son dwell |
| Tx:11.35 | where God and His Son dwell in peace and where you are welcome, you | will look out in peace and behold the world truly. Yet to find the |
| Tx:11.36 | is the one promise the ego holds out to you and the one promise it | will keep. For the ego pursues its goal with fanatic insistence, and |
| Tx:11.37 | your mind that has the power to deny the ego's existence, and you | will surely do so when you realize exactly what the journey is on |
| Tx:11.38 | that it had not taught you the response pattern you need. The ego | will therefore distort love and teach you that love calls forth the |
| Tx:11.38 | which the ego can teach. Follow its teaching, then, and you | will search for love but will not recognize it. |
| Tx:11.38 | teach. Follow its teaching, then, and you will search for love but | will not recognize it. |
| Tx:11.39 | would keep? The Holy Spirit offers you another promise, and one that | will lead to joy. For His promise is always, “Seek and you will |
| Tx:11.39 | one that will lead to joy. For His promise is always, “Seek and you | will find,” and under His guidance you cannot be defeated. His is the |
| Tx:11.39 | is the journey to accomplishment, and the goal He sets before you He | will give you. For He will never deceive God's Son, whom He loves |
| Tx:11.39 | and the goal He sets before you He will give you. For He | will never deceive God's Son, whom He loves with the love of the |
| Tx:11.40 | You | will undertake a journey because you are not at home in this world. |
| Tx:11.40 | a journey because you are not at home in this world. And you | will search for your home whether you know where it is or not. If you |
| Tx:11.40 | it is or not. If you believe it is outside yourself, the search | will be futile, for you will be seeking it where it is not. You do |
| Tx:11.40 | believe it is outside yourself, the search will be futile, for you | will be seeking it where it is not. You do not know how to look |
| Tx:11.40 | your home is there. Yet the Holy Spirit knows it for you, and He | will guide you to your home because that is His mission. As He |
| Tx:11.40 | home because that is His mission. As He fulfills His mission, He | will teach you yours, for your mission is the same as His. By guiding |
| Tx:11.41 | might learn you have eternal life. For death is not your Father's | Will nor yours, and whatever is true is the Will of the Father. You |
| Tx:11.41 | is not your Father's Will nor yours, and whatever is true is the | Will of the Father. You pay no price for life, for that was given |
| Tx:11.41 | for death, and a very heavy one. If death is your treasure, you | will sell everything else to purchase it. And you will believe that |
| Tx:11.41 | your treasure, you will sell everything else to purchase it. And you | will believe that you have purchased it because you have sold |
| Tx:11.42 | invest in it, not with money but with your spirit. For Spirit is | will, and will is the “price” of the Kingdom. Your inheritance awaits |
| Tx:11.42 | in it, not with money but with your spirit. For Spirit is will, and | will is the “price” of the Kingdom. Your inheritance awaits only the |
| Tx:11.42 | eternal, but you must relinquish your investment in death, or you | will not see life though it is all around you. |
| Tx:11.44 | effect. Although you have attacked yourself, and very brutally, you | will demonstrate that nothing happened. Therefore, by attacking you |
| Tx:11.45 | You | will never realize the utter uselessness of attack except by |
| Tx:11.45 | if they perceive it, and if you are trying to attack them, you | will be unable to avoid interpreting this as reinforcement. The only |
| Tx:11.49 | aid, every real instruction, and every sensible guide to learning | will be misinterpreted. For they are all for learning facilitation, |
| Tx:11.50 | not overcome it, for all your learning is on its behalf. Yet your | will speaks against your learning, as your learning speaks against |
| Tx:11.50 | speaks against your learning, as your learning speaks against your | will, and so you fight against learning and succeed, for that is your |
| Tx:11.50 | and so you fight against learning and succeed, for that is your | will. But you do not realize even yet that there is something you do |
| Tx:11.50 | will. But you do not realize even yet that there is something you do | will to learn, and that you can learn it because it is your will to |
| Tx:11.50 | you do will to learn, and that you can learn it because it is your | will to do so. |
| Tx:11.51 | You who have tried to learn what you do not | will should take heart, for although the curriculum you set yourself |
| Tx:11.51 | not to attain it? Resign now as your own teachers. This resignation | will not lead to depression. It is merely the result of an honest |
| Tx:11.51 | conditions, which you can neither provide nor understand, you | will become excellent learners and teachers. But it is not so yet and |
| Tx:11.51 | become excellent learners and teachers. But it is not so yet and | will not be so until the whole learning situation as you have set it |
| Tx:11.52 | Your learning potential, properly understood, is limitless because it | will lead you to God. You can teach the way to Him and learn it if |
| Tx:11.52 | accord. You need offer only undivided attention. Everything else | will be given you. For it is your will to learn aright, and nothing |
| Tx:11.52 | attention. Everything else will be given you. For it is your | will to learn aright, and nothing can oppose the Will of God's Son. |
| Tx:11.52 | you. For it is your will to learn aright, and nothing can oppose the | Will of God's Son. His learning is as unlimited as he is. |
| Tx:11.53 | sell your awareness of it. You cannot perceive your Soul, but you | will not know it while you perceive anything else as more valuable. |
| Tx:11.54 | aware of how to teach you what you are. Because He loves you, He | will gladly teach you what He loves, for He wills to share it. |
| Tx:11.54 | because of Him. You chose to forget your Father, but you did not | will to do so, and therefore you can decide otherwise. As it was my |

| Tx:11.56 | forgetting to the remembering of God. Christ's eyes are open, and He | will look upon whatever you see with love if you accept His vision as |
| Tx:11.57 | Son of God is perfect, and He longs to share His vision with you. He | will show you the real world because God gave you Heaven. Through Him |
| Tx:11.57 | His Son begins with his investment in the real world, and by this he | will learn to reinvest in himself. For reality is one with the Father |
| Tx:11.58 | When you have seen this real world, as you | will surely do, you will remember us. Yet you must learn the cost of |

| Tx:11.58 | the quiet light of the Holy Spirit's blessing. For the Holy Spirit | will lead everyone home to his Father, where Christ waits as his Self. |

| Tx:11.63 | you to do is clearly beyond all of them. Perceiving His results, you | will understand where He must be and finally know what He is. |

| Tx:11.65 | As long as you believe you have two functions, so long | will you need correction. For this belief is the destruction of |
| Tx:11.65 | would you see? Of whose presence would you be convinced? For you | will believe in what you manifest, and as you look out, so will you |
| Tx:11.65 | For you will believe in what you manifest, and as you look out, so | will you see in. Two ways of looking at the world are in your mind, |
| Tx:11.65 | ways of looking at the world are in your mind, and your perception | will reflect the guidance you chose. |
| Tx:11.66 | I am the manifestation of the Holy Spirit, and when you see me, it | will be because you have invited Him. For He will send you His |
| Tx:11.66 | and when you see me, it will be because you have invited Him. For He | will send you His witnesses if you will but look upon them. Remember |
| Tx:11.66 | you have invited Him. For He will send you His witnesses if you | will but look upon them. Remember always that you see what you seek, |
| Tx:11.66 | Remember always that you see what you seek, for what you seek you | will find. The ego finds what it seeks and only that. It does not |
| Tx:11.66 | seeking and finding are the same, and if you seek for two goals you | will find them, but you will recognize neither. For you will think |
| Tx:11.66 | the same, and if you seek for two goals you will find them, but you | will recognize neither. For you will think they are the same because |
| Tx:11.66 | goals you will find them, but you will recognize neither. For you | will think they are the same because you want them both. The mind |
| Tx:11.66 | for integration, and if it is split and wants to keep the split, it | will believe it has one goal by making it one. |
| Tx:11.67 | This is why you find what you seek. What you want in yourself, you | will make manifest by projection, and you will accept it from the |
| Tx:11.67 | you want in yourself, you will make manifest by projection, and you | will accept it from the world because you put it there by wanting it. |
| Tx:11.69 | When you want only love you | will see nothing else. The contradictory nature of the witnesses you |
| Tx:11.69 | by its messengers. If you make love manifest, its messengers | will come to you because you invited them. |
| Tx:11.72 | When you have accepted your mission to project peace, you | will find it, for by making it manifest, you will see it. Its holy |
| Tx:11.72 | to project peace, you will find it, for by making it manifest, you | will see it. Its holy witnesses will surround you because you called |
| Tx:11.72 | it, for by making it manifest, you will see it. Its holy witnesses | will surround you because you called upon them and they will come to |
| Tx:11.72 | witnesses will surround you because you called upon them and they | will come to you. I have heard your call and I have answered it, but |
| Tx:11.72 | come to you. I have heard your call and I have answered it, but you | will not look upon me nor hear the answer which you sought. That is |
| Tx:11.72 | you do not yet want only that. Yet as I become more real to you, you | will learn that you do want only that. And you will see me as you |
| Tx:11.72 | more real to you, you will learn that you do want only that. And you | will see me as you look within, and we will look upon the world as |
| Tx:11.72 | do want only that. And you will see me as you look within, and we | will look upon the world as God created it together. Through the eyes |
| Tx:11.72 | only the real world exists and can be seen. As you decide, so | will you see. And all that you see but witnesses to your decision. |
| Tx:11.73 | When you look within and see me, it | will be because you have decided to manifest truth. And as you |
| Tx:11.73 | you have decided to manifest truth. And as you manifest it, you | will see it both without and within, for you will see it without |
| Tx:11.73 | as you manifest it, you will see it both without and within, for you | will see it without because you saw it first within. Everything you |
| Tx:11.73 | is a judgment of what you beheld within. If it is your judgment, it | will be wrong, for judgment is not your function. If it is the |
| Tx:11.73 | is not your function. If it is the judgment of the Holy Spirit, it | will be right, for judgment is His function. You share His function |
| Tx:11.73 | as He does, reserving no judgment at all unto yourselves. For you | will judge against yourselves, but He will judge for you. |
| Tx:11.73 | all unto yourselves. For you will judge against yourselves, but He | will judge for you. |
| Tx:11.74 | of its feeling for you, it lets you live but to await death. It | will torment you while you live, but its hatred is not satisfied |
| Tx:11.74 | is the one end toward which it works, and the only end with which it | will be satisfied. |
| Tx:11.75 | you have been treacherous to God and therefore deserve death. You | will think that death comes from God and not from the ego because, by |
| Tx:11.76 | to yield to the desire for death, remember that I did not die. You | will realize that this is true when you look within and see me. Would |
| Tx:11.76 | He had also given it to you? When you learn to make me manifest, you | will never see death. For you will have looked upon the deathless in |
| Tx:11.76 | you learn to make me manifest, you will never see death. For you | will have looked upon the deathless in yourself, and you will see |
| Tx:11.76 | For you will have looked upon the deathless in yourself, and you | will see only the eternal as you look out upon a world that cannot |
| Tx:11.77 | that you cannot see it. If you seek love in order to attack it, you | will never find it. For if love is sharing, how can you find it |
| Tx:11.77 | sharing, how can you find it except through itself? Offer it and it | will come to you because it is drawn to itself. But offer attack and |
| Tx:11.77 | come to you because it is drawn to itself. But offer attack and it | will remain hidden, for it can live only in peace. |
| Tx:11.80 | in his memory. You can deny it, but you cannot lose it. A Voice | will answer every question you ask, and a Vision will correct the |
| Tx:11.80 | lose it. A Voice will answer every question you ask, and a Vision | will correct the perception of everything you see. For what you have |
| Tx:11.81 | You have but to ask for this memory, and you | will remember. Yet the memory of God cannot shine in a mind which has |
| Tx:11.84 | But take it from the hand of Christ and look upon it. Its reality | will make everything else invisible, for beholding it is total |
| Tx:11.84 | for beholding it is total perception. And as you look upon it, you | will remember that it was always so. Nothingness will become |
| Tx:11.84 | look upon it, you will remember that it was always so. Nothingness | will become invisible, for you will at last have seen truly. Redeemed |
| Tx:11.84 | that it was always so. Nothingness will become invisible, for you | will at last have seen truly. Redeemed perception is easily |
| Tx:11.85 | from the mind being judged, believing that by punishing another, it | will escape punishment. All this is but the delusional attempt of the |
| Tx:11.86 | of those made mad by guilt. Look carefully at this world, and you | will realize that this is so. For this world is the symbol of |
| Tx:11.88 | realize that God's Son cannot be crucified, this is the world you | will see. Yet you will not realize this until you accept the eternal |
| Tx:11.88 | Son cannot be crucified, this is the world you will see. Yet you | will not realize this until you accept the eternal fact that God's |
| Tx:11.91 | Time seems to go in one direction, but when you reach its end, it | will roll up like a long carpet which has spread along the past |
| Tx:11.91 | up like a long carpet which has spread along the past behind you and | will disappear. As long as you believe the Son of God is guilty, you |
| Tx:11.91 | will disappear. As long as you believe the Son of God is guilty, you | will walk along this carpet, believing that it leads to death. And |
| Tx:11.91 | along this carpet, believing that it leads to death. And the journey | will seem long and cruel and senseless, for so it is. |
| Tx:11.92 | Son cannot hurt himself. The retaliation he fears and which he sees | will never touch him, for although he believes in it, the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:11.93 | You | will see me as you learn the Son of God is guiltless. He has always |
| Tx:11.93 | of his purity shines untouched forever in God's Mind. God's Son | will always be as he was created. Deny your world and judge him not, |
| Tx:11.94 | When you have accepted the Atonement for yourselves, you | will realize that there is no guilt in God's Son. And only as you |
| Tx:11.95 | As you perceive the holy companions who travel with you, you | will realize that there is no journey, but only an awakening. The Son |
| Tx:11.96 | on to the past only through guilt. For guilt establishes that you | will be punished for what you have done and thus depends on |
| Tx:11.96 | in your minds to ensure the ego's continuity. For if what has been | will be punished, the ego's continuity is guaranteed. Yet the |
| Tx:12.3 | it is blind. Yet let it perceive guiltlessness anywhere, and it | will try to destroy it because it is afraid. |
| Tx:12.6 | of this course stems ultimately from this interpretation, but if you | will consider your reactions to it, you will become increasingly |
| Tx:12.6 | interpretation, but if you will consider your reactions to it, you | will become increasingly convinced that this is so. |
| Tx:12.7 | Yet you are afraid of it. You have been told again and again that it | will make you free, yet you react as if it is trying to imprison you. |
| Tx:12.8 | with gladness. You are afraid of redemption, and you believe it | will kill you. Make no mistake about the depth of your fear. For you |
| Tx:12.8 | of your fear. For you believe that in the presence of truth you | will turn on yourself and destroy yourself. |
| Tx:12.9 | this is not so. Your “guilty secret” is nothing, and if you | will but bring it to the light, the light will dispel it. And then no |
| Tx:12.9 | is nothing, and if you will but bring it to the light, the light | will dispel it. And then no dark cloud will remain between you and |
| Tx:12.9 | it to the light, the light will dispel it. And then no dark cloud | will remain between you and the remembrance of your Father, for you |
| Tx:12.9 | will remain between you and the remembrance of your Father, for you | will remember His guiltless Son, who did not die because he is |
| Tx:12.9 | His guiltless Son, who did not die because he is immortal. And you | will see that you were redeemed with him and have never been |
| Tx:12.9 | remembering, for it is the recognition of love without fear. There | will be great joy in Heaven on your homecoming, and the joy will be |
| Tx:12.9 | There will be great joy in Heaven on your homecoming, and the joy | will be yours. For the redeemed son of man is the guiltless Son of |
| Tx:12.10 | Atonement, which you do not yet realize. We have said that no one | will countenance fear if he recognizes it. Yet in your disordered |
| Tx:12.12 | still deeper than the ego's foundation, and much stronger than it | will ever be, is your intense and burning love of God, and His for |
| Tx:12.13 | attacking your fortress, for you would shut out God, and He does not | will to be excluded. |
| Tx:12.15 | enter where it is not welcome. But hatred can, for it enters of its | will and cares not for yours. |
| Tx:12.17 | carefully for any thoughts which you may fear to uncover. For He | will heal every little thought which you have kept to hurt you and |
| Tx:12.18 | calls you to Himself. In that place which you have hidden, you | will only to unite with the Father in loving remembrance of Him. You |
| Tx:12.18 | will only to unite with the Father in loving remembrance of Him. You | will find this place of truth as you see it in your brothers, for |
| Tx:12.18 | they long for the grandeur that is in them. And perceiving it you | will welcome it, and it will be yours. For grandeur is the right of |
| Tx:12.18 | that is in them. And perceiving it you will welcome it, and it | will be yours. For grandeur is the right of God's Son, and no |
| Tx:12.18 | him or save him from what he is. Only his love is real, and he | will be content only with his reality. |
| Tx:12.19 | Father in peace and joy. But exempt no one from your love, or you | will be hiding a dark place in your mind where the Holy Spirit is not |
| Tx:12.19 | place in your mind where the Holy Spirit is not welcome. And you | will exempt yourself from His healing power, for by not offering |
| Tx:12.19 | yourself from His healing power, for by not offering total love, you | will not be healed completely. Healing must be as complete as fear, |
| Tx:12.22 | in your insanity. [And this He did. No one who hears His answer but | will give up insanity.] For His answer is the reference point beyond |
| Tx:12.22 | back on them and see them as insane. But seek this place, and you | will find it, for love is in you and will lead you there. |
| Tx:12.22 | But seek this place, and you will find it, for love is in you and | will lead you there. |
| Tx:12.26 | that the past is the only aspect of time that is meaningful. You | will remember that we said its emphasis on guilt enables it to ensure |
| Tx:12.27 | present reality. In effect, if you follow the ego's dictates, you | will react to your brothers as though they were someone else, and |
| Tx:12.27 | react to your brothers as though they were someone else, and this | will surely prevent you from perceiving them as they are. And you |
| Tx:12.27 | will surely prevent you from perceiving them as they are. And you | will receive messages from them out of your own past because, by |
| Tx:12.32 | You too | will interpret the function of time as you interpret yours. If you |
| Tx:12.32 | If you accept your function in the world of time as healing, you | will emphasize only the aspect of time in which healing can occur. |
| Tx:12.32 | the past. But if you interpret your function as destruction, you | will lose sight of the present and hold on to the past to ensure a |
| Tx:12.32 | and hold on to the past to ensure a destructive future. And time | will be as you interpret it, for of itself it is nothing. |
| Tx:12.36 | they have condemned themselves. They do not wish to die, yet they | will not let condemnation go. And so they separate into their private |
| Tx:12.39 | For if you offer it to yourself, you are offering it to Him. And He | will not return it, for it is unworthy of you because it is unworthy |
| Tx:12.40 | You | will see all that you denied in your brothers because you denied it |
| Tx:12.40 | denied in your brothers because you denied it in yourself. For you | will love them, and by drawing nigh unto them, you will draw them to |
| Tx:12.40 | yourself. For you will love them, and by drawing nigh unto them, you | will draw them to yourself, perceiving them as witnesses to your |
| Tx:12.40 | which you share with God. I am with them as I am with you, and we | will draw them from their private worlds, for as we are united, so |
| Tx:12.41 | what you see you made. But let the darkness go, and all you made you | will no longer see, for sight of it depends upon denying vision. Yet |
| Tx:12.42 | For He loves what He sees within you, and He would extend it. And He | will not return unto the Father until He has extended your perception |
| Tx:12.43 | in perfect radiance, which is undimmed by your dreams. And this you | will see as you look with Him, for His vision is His gift of love to |
| Tx:12.44 | who would behold Him can see Him, for they have asked for light. Nor | will they see Him alone, for He is no more alone than they are. |
| Tx:12.44 | they saw the Son, they have risen in Him to the Father. And all this | will they understand because they looked within and saw beyond the |
| Tx:12.45 | was now. If you remember the past as you look upon your brother, you | will be unable to perceive the reality that is now. |
| Tx:12.46 | at all to the past, either his or yours as you perceived it, you | will be able to learn from what you see now. For the past can cast no |
| Tx:12.49 | obscure him from you, for truth lies only in the present, and you | will find it if you seek it there. You have looked for it where it is |
| Tx:12.49 | have not found it. Learn, then, to seek it where it is, and it | will dawn on eyes that see. Your past was made in anger, and if you |
| Tx:12.49 | past was made in anger, and if you use it to attack the present, you | will not see the freedom that the present holds. Judgment and |
| Tx:12.49 | condemnation are behind you, and unless you bring them with you, you | will see that you are free of them. |
| Tx:12.50 | enables them to reach each other. The present is before time was and | will be when time is no more. In it is everything that is eternal, |
| Tx:12.51 | witnesses to shine on you because you called them forth. And they | will not deny the truth in you because you looked for it in them and |
| Tx:12.53 | Shine on your brothers in remembrance of your Creator, for you | will remember Him as you call forth the witnesses to His creation. |
| Tx:12.53 | you heal bear witness to your healing, for in their wholeness you | will see your own. And as your hymns of praise and gladness rise to |
| Tx:12.53 | And as your hymns of praise and gladness rise to your Creator, He | will return your thanks in His clear answer to your call. For it can |
| Tx:12.54 | Children of light, you know not that the light is in you. Yet you | will find it through its witnesses, for having given light to them, |
| Tx:12.54 | find it through its witnesses, for having given light to them, they | will return it. Everyone you see in light brings your light closer to |
| Tx:12.55 | forth to call you from the world and follow it. For this light | will attract you as nothing in this world can do. And you will lay |
| Tx:12.55 | this light will attract you as nothing in this world can do. And you | will lay aside the world and find another. This other world is bright |
| Tx:12.55 | other world is bright with love, which you have given it. And here | will everything remind you of your Father and His Holy Son. Light is |
| Tx:12.55 | across this world in quiet joy. All those you brought with you | will shine on you, and you will shine on them in gratitude because |
| Tx:12.55 | quiet joy. All those you brought with you will shine on you, and you | will shine on them in gratitude because they brought you here. Your |
| Tx:12.55 | shine on them in gratitude because they brought you here. Your light | will join with theirs in power so compelling that it will draw the |
| Tx:12.55 | Your light will join with theirs in power so compelling that it | will draw the others out of darkness as you look on them. |
| Tx:12.56 | Awakening unto Christ is following the laws of love of your free | will and out of quiet recognition of the truth in them. The |
| Tx:12.60 | because you have denied the other. Both are not true, yet either one | will seem as real to you as the amount to which you hold it dear. And |
| Tx:12.62 | touch you even here because you love it. And what you call with love | will come to you. Love always answers, being unable to deny a call |
| Tx:12.64 | other world about him. Yet while he still lays value on his own, he | will deny the vision of the other world, maintaining that he loves |
| Tx:12.64 | love points out. Love leads so gladly! And as you follow Him, you | will rejoice that you have found His company and learned of Him the |
| Tx:12.64 | world over and exchange your errors for the peace of God is but your | will. And Christ will always offer you the Will of God in recognition |
| Tx:12.64 | your errors for the peace of God is but your will. And Christ | will always offer you the Will of God in recognition that you share |
| Tx:12.64 | peace of God is but your will. And Christ will always offer you the | Will of God in recognition that you share it with Him. |
| Tx:12.65 | It is God's | Will that nothing touch His Son except Himself, and nothing else |
| Tx:12.66 | wholly yours. For all else you have lent yourself in time, and it | will fade. But this one thing is always yours, being the gift of God |
| Tx:12.67 | You | will first dream of peace and then awaken to it. Your first exchange |
| Tx:12.68 | between the two worlds, He knows what you have need of and what | will not hurt you. Ownership is a dangerous concept if it is left to |
| Tx:12.69 | Everything that the ego tells you that you need | will hurt you. For although the ego urges you again and again to get, |
| Tx:12.69 | again and again to get, it leaves you nothing, for what you get, it | will demand of you. And even from the very hands that grasped it, it |
| Tx:12.69 | will demand of you. And even from the very hands that grasped it, it | will be wrenched and hurled into the dust. For where the ego sees |
| Tx:12.69 | what you need, for you do not know and your advice unto yourself | will hurt you. For what you think you need will merely serve to |
| Tx:12.69 | your advice unto yourself will hurt you. For what you think you need | will merely serve to tighten up your world against the light and |
| Tx:12.70 | Only the Holy Spirit knows what you need. For He | will give you all things that do not block the way to light. And what |
| Tx:12.70 | you need? In time He gives you all the things that you need have and | will renew them as long as you have need of them. He will take |
| Tx:12.70 | need have and will renew them as long as you have need of them. He | will take nothing from you as long as you have any need of it. And |
| Tx:12.70 | of it. And yet He knows that everything you need is temporary and | will but last until you step aside from all your needs and learn that |
| Tx:12.70 | in the things that He supplies except to make certain that you | will not use them on behalf of lingering in time. He knows that you |
| Tx:12.71 | Leave, then, your needs to Him. He | will supply them with no emphasis at all upon them. What comes to you |
| Tx:12.71 | at all upon them. What comes to you of Him comes safely, for He | will ensure it never can become a dark spot, hidden in your mind and |
| Tx:12.71 | hidden in your mind and kept to hurt you. Under His guidance, you | will travel light and journey lightly, for His sight is ever on the |
| Tx:12.74 | Then follow Him in joy, with faith that He | will lead you safely through all dangers to your peace of mind that |
| Tx:12.74 | you. Kneel not before the altars to sacrifice and seek not what you | will surely lose. Content yourselves with what you will as surely |
| Tx:12.74 | seek not what you will surely lose. Content yourselves with what you | will as surely keep and be not restless, for you undertake a quiet |
| Tx:12.75 | of God. Hold me dear, for what except your brothers can you need? We | will restore to you the peace of mind that we must find together. The |
| Tx:12.75 | to you the peace of mind that we must find together. The Holy Spirit | will teach you to awaken unto us and to yourself. This is the only |
| Tx:12.75 | glad exchange for all the world has offered but to take away. And we | will spread it like a veil of light across the world's sad face, in |
| Tx:12.76 | Father's gift to me, given me through His Spirit. The sound of it | will banish sorrow from the Mind of God's most holy Son, where it |
| Tx:13.2 | Christ beholds everything in light. Yet no perception, however holy, | will last forever. |
| Tx:13.3 | is needful here. Aspects of reality can still be seen, and they | will replace aspects of unreality. Aspects of reality can be seen in |
| Tx:13.6 | are all the same; all beautiful and equal in their holiness. And He | will offer them unto His Father as they were offered unto Him. There |
| Tx:13.8 | When you have seen your brothers as yourself, you | will be released to knowledge, having learned to free yourself of Him |
| Tx:13.8 | of His teaching, and as we grow in strength, the power of God's Son | will move in us, and we will leave no one untouched and no one left |
| Tx:13.8 | we grow in strength, the power of God's Son will move in us, and we | will leave no one untouched and no one left alone. And suddenly time |
| Tx:13.8 | will leave no one untouched and no one left alone. And suddenly time | will be over, and we will all unite in the eternity of God the |
| Tx:13.8 | and no one left alone. And suddenly time will be over, and we | will all unite in the eternity of God the Father. The holy light you |
| Tx:13.8 | saw outside yourself in every miracle you offered to your brothers | will be returned to you. And knowing that the light is in you, your |
| Tx:13.8 | to you. And knowing that the light is in you, your creations | will be there with you, as you are in your Father. |
| Tx:13.10 | to what you do not know, and as they reach the gates of Heaven, God | will open them. For never would He leave His own beloved Son outside |
| Tx:13.11 | upon His Son. The guilty always condemn, and having done so, they | will condemn, linking the future to the past as is the ego's law. |
| Tx:13.11 | so brightly that the chain of darkness in which you bound yourselves | will disappear. |
| Tx:13.12 | harsh commandments, you bring its condemnation of yourself, and you | will not escape the punishment it offers those who obey it. The ego |
| Tx:13.13 | in it and placed your faith in. Be faithful unto darkness and you | will not see, because your faith will be rewarded as you gave it. You |
| Tx:13.13 | Be faithful unto darkness and you will not see, because your faith | will be rewarded as you gave it. You will accept your treasure, and |
| Tx:13.13 | not see, because your faith will be rewarded as you gave it. You | will accept your treasure, and if you place your faith in the past, |
| Tx:13.13 | your treasure, and if you place your faith in the past, the future | will be like it. Whatever you hold as dear, you think is yours. The |
| Tx:13.13 | you hold as dear, you think is yours. The power of your valuing | will make it so. |
| Tx:13.16 | See no one, then, as guilty, and you | will affirm the truth of guiltlessness unto yourself. In every |
| Tx:13.16 | whom you see as guilty become the witnesses to guilt in you, and you | will see it there, for it is there until it is undone. Guilt is |
| Tx:13.17 | makes you blind, for while you see one spot of guilt within you, you | will not see the light. And by projecting it, the world seems dark |
| Tx:13.21 | No one who would unite in any way with anyone for his own salvation | will find it in that strange relationship. It is not shared, and so |
| Tx:13.22 | your guilt upon him or share it with him or perceive his own, you | will feel guilty. Nor will you find satisfaction and peace with him, |
| Tx:13.22 | or share it with him or perceive his own, you will feel guilty. Nor | will you find satisfaction and peace with him, because your union |
| Tx:13.22 | and peace with him, because your union with him is not real. You | will see guilt in that relationship because you put it there. It is |
| Tx:13.22 | you put it there. It is inevitable that those who suffer guilt | will attempt to displace it, because they do believe in it. Yet, |
| Tx:13.22 | it, because they do believe in it. Yet, though they suffer, they | will not look within and let it go. They cannot know they love and |
| Tx:13.24 | past, but with each one each day be born again. A minute, even less, | will be enough to free you from the past and give your mind in peace |
| Tx:13.24 | to you as you would have yourself be welcome to your Father, you | will see no guilt in you. For you will have accepted the Atonement, |
| Tx:13.24 | be welcome to your Father, you will see no guilt in you. For you | will have accepted the Atonement, which shone within you all the |
| Tx:13.25 | that guilt is justified in any way in anyone whatever he may do, you | will not look within, where you would always find Atonement. The end |
| Tx:13.25 | look within, where you would always find Atonement. The end of guilt | will never come as long as you believe there is a reason for it. For |
| Tx:13.27 | Now it is given you to heal and teach, to make what | will be now. As yet it is not now. The Son of God believes that he is |
| Tx:13.27 | without. When he has looked within and seen the radiance there, he | will remember how much his Father loves him. And it will seem |
| Tx:13.27 | there, he will remember how much his Father loves him. And it | will seem incredible that he has ever thought his Father loved him |
| Tx:13.27 | guilt is insane, wholly unjustified, and wholly without reason, you | will not fear to look upon the Atonement and accept it wholly. |
| Tx:13.28 | dims your vision, and look past darkness to the holy place where you | will see the light. The altar to your Father is as pure as He Who |
| Tx:13.28 | Nothing can keep from you what Christ would have you see. His | Will is like His Father's, and He offers mercy to every Child of God, |
| Tx:13.30 | no love apart from His. Until you recognize that this is true, you | will have no idea what love is like. No one who condemns a brother |
| Tx:13.32 | look upon yourself, and gladness and appreciation for what you see | will banish guilt forever. I thank You, Father, for the purity of |
| Tx:13.33 | My trust in you is without limit and without the fear that you | will hear me not. I thank the Father for your loveliness and for the |
| Tx:13.33 | thank the Father for your loveliness and for the many gifts that you | will let me offer to the Kingdom in honor of its wholeness, which is |
| Tx:13.34 | of the Kingdom, guilt melts away and, transformed into kindness, | will never more be what it was. Every reaction that you experience |
| Tx:13.34 | will never more be what it was. Every reaction that you experience | will be so purified that it is fitting as a hymn of praise unto your |
| Tx:13.34 | your Father. See only praise of Him in what He has created, for He | will never cease His praise of you. United in this praise, we stand |
| Tx:13.34 | United in this praise, we stand before the gates of Heaven where we | will surely enter in our blamelessness. God loves you. Could I, then, |
| Tx:13.36 | a war that could endanger freedom. Nothing destructive ever was or | will be. The war, the guilt, the past are gone as one into the |
| Tx:13.37 | When we are all united in Heaven, you | will value nothing that you value here. For nothing that you value |
| Tx:13.38 | The Holy Spirit points quietly to the contrast, knowing that you | will finally let Him judge the difference for you, allowing Him to |
| Tx:13.38 | He has perfect faith in your final judgment because He knows that He | will make it for you. To doubt this would be to doubt that His |
| Tx:13.38 | make it for you. To doubt this would be to doubt that His mission | will be fulfilled. How is this possible, when His mission is of God? |
| Tx:13.39 | to listen to, whatever strange thoughts may occur to you, God's | Will is done. You will find the peace in which He has established |
| Tx:13.39 | whatever strange thoughts may occur to you, God's Will is done. You | will find the peace in which He has established you, because He does |
| Tx:13.40 | You | will not remember change and shift in Heaven. You have need of |
| Tx:13.40 | what to avoid and what to seek. When you have learned this, you | will find the answer that makes the need for any differences |
| Tx:13.40 | makes the need for any differences disappear. Truth comes of its own | will unto its own. When you have learned that you belong to truth, it |
| Tx:13.40 | unto its own. When you have learned that you belong to truth, it | will flow lightly over you without a difference of any kind. For you |
| Tx:13.40 | will flow lightly over you without a difference of any kind. For you | will need no contrast to help you realize that this is what you want, |
| Tx:13.40 | that this is what you want, and only this. Fear not the Holy Spirit | will fail in what your Father has given Him to do. The Will of God |
| Tx:13.40 | Holy Spirit will fail in what your Father has given Him to do. The | Will of God can fail in nothing. |
| Tx:13.41 | Have faith in only this one thing, and it | will be sufficient: God wills you be in Heaven, and nothing can keep |
| Tx:13.41 | weird imaginings, your blackest nightmares all mean nothing. They | will not prevail against the peace God wills for you. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.41 | not prevail against the peace God wills for you. The Holy Spirit | will restore your sanity, because insanity is not the Will of God. If |
| Tx:13.41 | Holy Spirit will restore your sanity, because insanity is not the | Will of God. If that suffices Him, it is enough for you. You will not |
| Tx:13.41 | not the Will of God. If that suffices Him, it is enough for you. You | will not keep what God would have removed, because it breaks |
| Tx:13.41 | communication with you with whom He would communicate. His voice | will be heard. |
| Tx:13.42 | reaching out cannot be wholly closed and separated from Him. Peace | will be yours, because His peace still flows to you from Him Whose |
| Tx:13.42 | will be yours, because His peace still flows to you from Him Whose | Will is peace. You have it now. The Holy Spirit will teach you how to |
| Tx:13.42 | you from Him Whose Will is peace. You have it now. The Holy Spirit | will teach you how to use it and, by projecting it, to learn that it |
| Tx:13.43 | God willed you Heaven and | will always will you nothing else. The Holy Spirit knows only of His |
| Tx:13.43 | God willed you Heaven and will always | will you nothing else. The Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. There |
| Tx:13.43 | will always will you nothing else. The Holy Spirit knows only of His | Will. There is no chance that Heaven will not be yours, for God is |
| Tx:13.43 | Holy Spirit knows only of His Will. There is no chance that Heaven | will not be yours, for God is sure, and what He wills is as sure as |
| Tx:13.43 | yours, for God is sure, and what He wills is as sure as He is. You | will learn salvation, because you will learn how to save. It will not |
| Tx:13.43 | He wills is as sure as He is. You will learn salvation, because you | will learn how to save. It will not be possible to exempt yourself |
| Tx:13.43 | is. You will learn salvation, because you will learn how to save. It | will not be possible to exempt yourself from what the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:13.43 | disturbed the Mind of God's sleeping Son holds no power over him. He | will learn the lesson of awaking. God watches over him, and light |
| Tx:13.44 | be glad? He cannot separate himself from what is in him. His sleep | will not withstand the call to wake. The mission of redemption will |
| Tx:13.44 | sleep will not withstand the call to wake. The mission of redemption | will be fulfilled as surely as the creation will remain unchanged |
| Tx:13.44 | mission of redemption will be fulfilled as surely as the creation | will remain unchanged throughout eternity. You do not have to know |
| Tx:13.44 | have to know that Heaven is yours to make it so. It is so. Yet the | Will of God must be accepted as your will to know it. |
| Tx:13.44 | make it so. It is so. Yet the Will of God must be accepted as your | will to know it. |
| Tx:13.45 | kind of reconciliation in His Mind for you, and one which He | will effect as surely as the ego will not effect what it attempts. |
| Tx:13.45 | His Mind for you, and one which He will effect as surely as the ego | will not effect what it attempts. |
| Tx:13.46 | the Holy Spirit offers to everyone for the salvation of everyone | will not be perfectly accomplished. You will be released, and you |
| Tx:13.46 | the salvation of everyone will not be perfectly accomplished. You | will be released, and you will not remember anything you made that |
| Tx:13.46 | will not be perfectly accomplished. You will be released, and you | will not remember anything you made that was not created for you and |
| Tx:13.49 | truth is needed in a world made of denial and without direction. You | will perceive the need for this if you will realize that to deny is |
| Tx:13.49 | and without direction. You will perceive the need for this if you | will realize that to deny is the decision not to know. The logic of |
| Tx:13.51 | and not the truth, that he has chosen to defend and love. They | will not be taken from him. But they can be given up by him, for the |
| Tx:13.52 | Any direction which | will lead you where the Holy Spirit leads you not goes nowhere. |
| Tx:13.52 | neither to see nor do. These are but indirect expressions of the | will to live, which has been blocked by the capricious and unholy |
| Tx:13.52 | be shared. And while you think it possible to learn to do this, you | will not believe all that is possible to learn to do. |
| Tx:13.53 | you chose to deceive yourselves. Those who choose to be deceived | will merely attack direct approaches, which would seem but to |
| Tx:13.54 | to do what you can never do, believing that unless you learn it, you | will not be happy. You do not realize that the foundation on which |
| Tx:13.55 | Have faith in nothing, and you | will find the “treasure” that you sought. Yet you will add another |
| Tx:13.55 | nothing, and you will find the “treasure” that you sought. Yet you | will add another burden to your mind, already burdened or you would |
| Tx:13.55 | mind, already burdened or you would not have sought another. You | will believe that nothing is of value and will value it. A little |
| Tx:13.55 | have sought another. You will believe that nothing is of value and | will value it. A little piece of glass, a speck of dust, a body or a |
| Tx:13.56 | teaching that truth is true. This is the hardest lesson you | will ever learn, and in the end the only one. Simplicity is very |
| Tx:13.58 | faith in nothing is deceiving you. Offer your faith to Me, and I | will place it gently in the holy place where it belongs. You will |
| Tx:13.58 | and I will place it gently in the holy place where it belongs. You | will find no deception there but only the simple truth. And you will |
| Tx:13.58 | You will find no deception there but only the simple truth. And you | will love it because you will understand it. |
| Tx:13.58 | there but only the simple truth. And you will love it because you | will understand it. |
| Tx:13.59 | is not what you have made, they see in you more than you see. They | will be happy learners of the lesson which this light brings to them |
| Tx:13.59 | chains have disappeared, and so they must have been nothing. And you | will see it with them. Because you taught them gladness and release, |
| Tx:13.59 | see it with them. Because you taught them gladness and release, they | will become your teachers in release and gladness. |
| Tx:13.60 | what seemed hardest was the easiest. Learn to be happy learners. You | will never learn how to make nothing everything. Yet see that this |
| Tx:13.61 | builded there is true and built on truth. The universe of learning | will open up before you in all its gracious simplicity. With truth |
| Tx:13.61 | you in all its gracious simplicity. With truth before you, you | will not look back. |
| Tx:13.63 | and learn of them how to be free of darkness. The light in you | will waken them, and they will not leave you asleep. The vision of |
| Tx:13.63 | to be free of darkness. The light in you will waken them, and they | will not leave you asleep. The vision of Christ is given the very |
| Tx:13.63 | all holy. The quietness of its simplicity is so compelling that you | will realize it is impossible to deny the simple truth. For there is |
| Tx:13.64 | Learning | will be commensurate with motivation, and the interference in your |
| Tx:13.65 | is no conflict here. To wish for guilt in any way, in any form, | will lose appreciation of the value of your guiltlessness and push it |
| Tx:13.66 | if you yield to it, you are deciding against your happiness and | will not learn how to be happy. Say therefore to yourself gently, but |
| Tx:13.67 | What I experience, I | will make manifest. If I am guiltless, I have nothing to fear. I |
| Tx:13.69 | it by holding it against you. Whether he does this or does it not | will make no difference; you will think he does. It is impossible to |
| Tx:13.69 | Whether he does this or does it not will make no difference; you | will think he does. It is impossible to offer what you do not want |
| Tx:13.70 | and would have you teach with Him. It is His joy to teach it, as it | will be yours. |
| Tx:13.72 | in any mind. Remember always that mind is one and cause is one. You | will learn communication with this oneness only when you learn to |
| Tx:13.73 | for yourself, you are thinking destructively, and the decision | will be wrong. It will hurt you because of the concept of decision |
| Tx:13.73 | you are thinking destructively, and the decision will be wrong. It | will hurt you because of the concept of decision which led to it. It |
| Tx:13.73 | Atonement are invulnerable. But those who believe they are guilty | will respond to guilt because they think it is salvation and will not |
| Tx:13.73 | guilty will respond to guilt because they think it is salvation and | will not refuse to see it and side with it. [They believe that |
| Tx:13.73 | [They believe that increasing guilt is self-protection.] And they | will fail to understand the simple fact that what they do not want |
| Tx:13.74 | arises because they do not believe that what they want is good. Yet | will was given them because it is holy and will bring to them all |
| Tx:13.74 | they want is good. Yet will was given them because it is holy and | will bring to them all that they need, coming as naturally as peace |
| Tx:13.74 | as peace that knows no limits. There is nothing their wills | will not provide that offers them anything of value. Yet because they |
| Tx:13.74 | them anything of value. Yet because they do not understand their | will, the Holy Spirit quietly understands it for them and gives them |
| Tx:13.74 | Holy Spirit quietly understands it for them and gives them what they | will without effort, strain, or the impossible burden of deciding |
| Tx:13.75 | It | will never happen that you will have to make decisions for yourself. |
| Tx:13.75 | It will never happen that you | will have to make decisions for yourself. You are not bereft of help, |
| Tx:13.75 | that you alone can offer yourself, when He Who gives you everything | will simply offer it to you? He will never ask what you have done to |
| Tx:13.75 | when He Who gives you everything will simply offer it to you? He | will never ask what you have done to make you worthy of the gift of |
| Tx:13.78 | salvation. He knows the way and leads you gladly on it. With Him you | will not fail to learn what God wills for you is your will. Without |
| Tx:13.78 | With Him you will not fail to learn what God wills for you is your | will. Without His guidance, you will think you know alone and will |
| Tx:13.78 | learn what God wills for you is your will. Without His guidance, you | will think you know alone and will decide against your peace as |
| Tx:13.78 | your will. Without His guidance, you will think you know alone and | will decide against your peace as surely as you made the wrong |
| Tx:13.78 | God gave it for you. He has not forgotten it. Forget Him not, and He | will make every decision for you, for your salvation, and the peace |
| Tx:13.79 | to do so is to evaluate his Father and judge against Him. And you | will feel guilty for this imagined crime, which no one in this world |
| Tx:13.81 | Trust Him to answer quickly, surely, and with love for everyone who | will be touched in any way by the decision. And everyone will be. |
| Tx:13.81 | who will be touched in any way by the decision. And everyone | will be. Would you take unto yourself the sole responsibility for |
| Tx:13.84 | He leadeth me and knows the way, which I know not. Yet He | will never keep from me what He would have me learn. And so I trust |
| Tx:13.86 | When you accept a brother's guiltlessness, you | will see the Atonement in him. For by proclaiming it in him, you make |
| Tx:13.86 | in him. For by proclaiming it in him, you make it yours, and you | will see what you sought. You will not see the symbol of your |
| Tx:13.86 | it in him, you make it yours, and you will see what you sought. You | will not see the symbol of your brother's guiltlessness shining |
| Tx:13.86 | there. His guiltlessness is your Atonement. Grant it to him, and you | will see the truth of what you have acknowledged. Yet truth is |
| Tx:13.87 | this, must you attain with God beside you. For until you do, you | will still think that you are separate from Him. You can feel His |
| Tx:13.88 | mind be undone for you and stand in grace before your Father, He | will give Himself to you as He has always done. Giving Himself is all |
| Tx:13.89 | You | will feel guilty till you learn this. For in the end, whatever form |
| Tx:13.89 | neither did He make them. When you release them, they are gone. God | will not fail nor ever has in anything. |
| Tx:13.90 | blameless Son. For this small gift of appreciation for His Love, God | will Himself exchange your gift for His. |
| Tx:13.91 | the One Who speaks for God and for your function as He knows it. So | will He teach you to remove the awful burden you have laid upon |
| Tx:13.92 | as easy and as right as breathing. There is no effort, and you | will be led as gently as if you were being carried along a quiet path |
| Tx:13.92 | Only your own volition seems to make deciding hard. The Holy Spirit | will not delay at all in answering your every question what to do. He |
| Tx:13.92 | at all in answering your every question what to do. He knows. And He | will tell you and then do it for you. You who are tired might |
| Tx:14.1 | Unless you are guiltless, you cannot know God, Whose | Will is that you know Him. Therefore, you must be guiltless. Yet if |
| Tx:14.6 | and learns it differently. Yet until he teaches it and learns it, he | will suffer the pain of dim awareness that his true function remains |
| Tx:14.7 | of all that God created. Deny them not what is their due, for you | will not withhold it from them alone. |
| Tx:14.8 | given him in his creation. Do not try to steal it from him, or you | will ask for guilt and will experience it. Protect his purity from |
| Tx:14.8 | Do not try to steal it from him, or you will ask for guilt and | will experience it. Protect his purity from every thought that would |
| Tx:14.8 | the Atonement here, and nothing else can unite us in this world. So | will the world of separation slip away and full communication be |
| Tx:14.11 | in peace. No one can be untouched by teaching such as this. You | will not see yourself beyond the power of God if you teach only this. |
| Tx:14.11 | not see yourself beyond the power of God if you teach only this. You | will not be exempt from the effects of this most holy lesson, which |
| Tx:14.11 | creation. From everyone whom you accord release from guilt, you | will inevitably learn your innocence. The circle of Atonement has no |
| Tx:14.11 | learn your innocence. The circle of Atonement has no end. And you | will find ever-increasing confidence in your safe inclusion in what |
| Tx:14.15 | or for redemption. If you bring him into the circle of purity, you | will rest there with him. If you leave him without, you join him |
| Tx:14.17 | in which nothing is hidden and therefore nothing is fearful. Attack | will always yield to love if it is brought to love, not hidden from |
| Tx:14.17 | not hidden from it. There is no darkness that the light of love | will not dispel, unless it is concealed from love's beneficence. What |
| Tx:14.18 | they keep obscure is fearful. But let them go, and what was fearful | will be so no longer. Without protection of obscurity, only the light |
| Tx:14.21 | would release you. Leave what you would communicate to Him. He | will interpret it to you with perfect clarity, for He knows with Whom |
| Tx:14.22 | your Interpreter perceives the meaning in your alien language. He | will not attempt to communicate the meaningless. But He will separate |
| Tx:14.22 | language. He will not attempt to communicate the meaningless. But He | will separate out all that has meaning, dropping off the rest and |
| Tx:14.23 | it. Therefore, keep no source of interference from His sight, for He | will not attack your sentinels. But bring them to Him, and let His |
| Tx:14.27 | to the desirable; what you do not want to what you do. You | will realize that salvation must come to you this way if you consider |
| Tx:14.28 | fact of their complete incompatibility is instantly apparent. One | will go because the other is seen in the same place. Light cannot |
| Tx:14.28 | Light cannot enter darkness when a mind believes in darkness and | will not let it go. Truth does not struggle against ignorance, and |
| Tx:14.29 | the small extent of believing that if He asks it, you can do it. You | will see how easily all that He asks can be accomplished. |
| Tx:14.30 | both of you together look on them. His judgment must prevail, and He | will give it to you as you join your perception to His. Joining with |
| Tx:14.31 | that nothing you see means anything alone. Seeing with Him | will show you that all meaning, including yours, comes not from |
| Tx:14.31 | shares with you. The single vision which the Holy Spirit offers you | will bring this oneness to your mind with clarity and brightness so |
| Tx:14.31 | the world not to accept what God would have you have. Behold your | will, accepting it as His, with all His love as yours. All honor to |
| Tx:14.33 | otherwise, great or small, however much or little valued, He | will replace with the one promise given unto Him to lay upon the |
| Tx:14.33 | And nothing brought there that is not equally worthy of both but | will be replaced by gifts wholly acceptable to Father and to Son. Can |
| Tx:14.35 | you can only be brought together by the Guide appointed for you. He | will surely lead you to where God and His Son await your recognition. |
| Tx:14.36 | There is no substitute for truth. And truth | will make this plain to you as you are brought into the place where |
| Tx:14.37 | all of creation and with its One Creator. And Heaven remains the | Will of God for you. Lay no gifts other than this upon your altars, |
| Tx:14.37 | together with the gift of God, and only what is worthy of the Father | will be accepted by the Son, for whom it was intended. To whom God |
| Tx:14.37 | intended. To whom God gives Himself, He is given. Your little gifts | will vanish on the altar where He has placed His Own. |
| Tx:14.39 | This cannot be undone. Undoing is for unreality. And this reality | will do for you. |
| Tx:14.40 | Atonement is so gentle you need but whisper to it, and all its power | will rush to your assistance and support. You are not frail with God |
| Tx:14.41 | quietly for the return of them that love it. The Presence knows they | will return to purity and to grace. The graciousness of God will take |
| Tx:14.41 | they will return to purity and to grace. The graciousness of God | will take them gently in and cover all their sense of pain and loss |
| Tx:14.41 | the immortal assurance of their Father's Love. There, fear of death | will be replaced with joy of living. For God is Life, and they abide |
| Tx:14.42 | of all the images of hidden darkness you have drawn upon it. God | will shine upon it of Himself. Only the clear reflection of Himself |
| Tx:14.44 | The image of holiness which shines in your mind is not obscure and | will not change. Its meaning to those who look upon it is not |
| Tx:14.46 | time and touch it, with the help of its reflection in you. And you | will turn from time to holiness as surely as the reflection of |
| Tx:14.50 | [Therefore, it is not your function, but the Holy Spirit's.] It | will seem difficult for you to learn that you have no basis at all |
| Tx:14.53 | ego, if the form is acceptable, the content must be. Otherwise, it | will attack the form. You who believe you understand something of the |
| Tx:14.57 | must give it because of what you are. Long ago we said this course | will teach you what you are, restoring to you your identity. We have |
| Tx:14.57 | it. By supplying your identity wherever it is not recognized, you | will recognize it. And God Himself, Who wills to be with His Son |
| Tx:14.57 | recognize it. And God Himself, Who wills to be with His Son forever, | will bless each recognition of His Son with all the love He holds for |
| Tx:14.57 | each recognition of His Son with all the love He holds for him. Nor | will the power of all His love be absent from any miracle you offer |
| Tx:14.62 | take. Every dark lesson that you bring to Him Who teaches light He | will accept from you because you do not want it. And He will gladly |
| Tx:14.62 | light He will accept from you because you do not want it. And He | will gladly exchange each one for the bright lesson He has learned |
| Tx:14.63 | absence of perfect peace means but one thing: you think you do not | will for God's Son what His Father wills for him. Every dark lesson |
| Tx:14.63 | form or another. And each bright lesson, with which the Holy Spirit | will replace the dark ones you do not accept and hide, teaches you |
| Tx:14.63 | the dark ones you do not accept and hide, teaches you that you | will with the Father unto His Son. |
| Tx:14.65 | this, means. And so I do not know how to respond to it. And I | will not use my own past learning as the light to guide me now. |
| Tx:14.66 | yourself what you do not know, the Guide Whom God has given you | will speak to you. He will take His rightful place in your awareness |
| Tx:14.66 | do not know, the Guide Whom God has given you will speak to you. He | will take His rightful place in your awareness the instant you |
| Tx:14.67 | has been provided for you. God's Son can make no needs His Father | will not meet if he but turn to Him ever so little. Yet He cannot |
| Tx:14.71 | God's Son | will always be indivisible. As we are held as one in God, so do we |
| Tx:14.71 | before His lesson division disappears. Teach like Him here, and you | will remember that you have always created like your Father. The |
| Tx:14.71 | ceased, having the holy stamp of immortality upon it. This is the | Will of God for all creation, and all creation joins in willing this. |
| Tx:14.72 | they know nothing, but who have become willing to learn everything, | will learn it. But whenever they trust themselves, they will not |
| Tx:14.72 | everything, will learn it. But whenever they trust themselves, they | will not learn. They have destroyed their motivation for learning by |

| Tx:14.73 | of Peace. Whenever you fully realize that you know not, peace | will return, for you will have invited Him to do so by abandoning the |
| Tx:14.73 | you fully realize that you know not, peace will return, for you | will have invited Him to do so by abandoning the ego on behalf of |
| Tx:14.73 | ego for anything. It is only this that you need do. The Holy Spirit | will, of Himself, fill every mind that so makes room for Him. |

| Tx:14.74 | Teacher of peace will never abandon you. You can desert Him, but He | will never reciprocate, for His faith in you is His understanding. It |
| Tx:14.74 | lies His holiness, which He cannot abandon, for it is not His | Will to do so. With your perfection ever in His sight, He gives the |
| Tx:14.74 | the need for peace and who would have it. Make way for peace, and it | will come. For understanding is in you, and from it peace must come. |
| Tx:14.75 | it is impossible to know Him. Yet see the mighty works that He | will do through you, and you must be convinced you did them through |
| Tx:14.75 | so powerful they could not be of you. Leave room for Him, and you | will find yourself so filled with power that nothing will prevail |
| Tx:14.75 | Him, and you will find yourself so filled with power that nothing | will prevail against your peace. And this will be the test by which |
| Tx:14.75 | with power that nothing will prevail against your peace. And this | will be the test by which you recognize that you have understood. |

| Tx:15.5 | be separated, and because it cannot conceive of its own death, it | will pursue you still because guilt is eternal. Such is the ego's |
| Tx:15.7 | who considers himself as deserving hell can believe that punishment | will end in peace. |
| Tx:15.10 | From this holy instant wherein holiness was born again, you | will go forth in time without fear and with no sense of change with |
| Tx:15.11 | does not exist. In this redeeming instant lies Heaven. And Heaven | will not change, for the birth into the holy present is salvation |
| Tx:15.11 | holy instant in which you see yourself as bright with freedom, you | will remember God. For remembering Him is to remember freedom. |
| Tx:15.13 | You | will never give this holy instant to the Holy Spirit on behalf of |
| Tx:15.13 | release is yours. Miracles are the instants of release you offer and | will receive. They attest to your willingness to be released and to |
| Tx:15.16 | Spirit is offered to God on your behalf, and in that instant you | will awaken gently in Him. In the blessed instant, you will let go |

| Tx:15.16 | instant, you will let go all your past learning, and the Holy Spirit | will quickly offer you the whole lesson of peace. What can take time, |
| Tx:15.17 | be concerned with time and fear not the instant of holiness which | will remove all fear. For the instant of peace is eternal because it |
| Tx:15.17 | instant of peace is eternal because it is wholly without fear. It | will come, being the lesson God gives you through the Teacher He has |
| Tx:15.18 | God would have you? For you are where you have forever been and | will forever be. All that you have, you have forever. The blessed |
| Tx:15.18 | do not perceive the Source of strength. In the holy instant, you | will unchain all your brothers and refuse to support either their |
| Tx:15.19 | whether they support the ego or the Holy Spirit in you. And you | will know which you have chosen by their reactions. A Son of God who |
| Tx:15.19 | single instant completely to the Holy Spirit. For when you have, you | will be sure you have. You will be sure because the witness to Him |
| Tx:15.19 | the Holy Spirit. For when you have, you will be sure you have. You | will be sure because the witness to Him will speak so clearly of Him |
| Tx:15.19 | will be sure you have. You will be sure because the witness to Him | will speak so clearly of Him that you will hear and understand. |
| Tx:15.19 | because the witness to Him will speak so clearly of Him that you | will hear and understand. |
| Tx:15.20 | You | will doubt until you hear one witness whom you have wholly released |
| Tx:15.20 | whom you have wholly released through the Holy Spirit. And then you | will doubt no more. The holy instant has not yet happened to you. Yet |
| Tx:15.20 | doubt no more. The holy instant has not yet happened to you. Yet it | will, and you will recognize it with perfect certainty. No gift of |
| Tx:15.20 | The holy instant has not yet happened to you. Yet it will, and you | will recognize it with perfect certainty. No gift of God is |
| Tx:15.20 | other way. You can practice the mechanics of the holy instant and | will learn much from doing so. Yet its shining and glittering |
| Tx:15.20 | much from doing so. Yet its shining and glittering brilliance, which | will literally blind you to this world by its own vision, you cannot |
| Tx:15.21 | to practice your little part in separating out the holy instant. You | will receive very specific instructions as you go along. To learn to |
| Tx:15.21 | to begin to experience yourself as not separate. Fear not that you | will not be given help in this. God's Teacher and His lesson will |
| Tx:15.21 | you will not be given help in this. God's Teacher and His lesson | will support your strength. It is only your weakness that will depart |
| Tx:15.21 | His lesson will support your strength. It is only your weakness that | will depart from you in this practice, for it is the practice of the |
| Tx:15.21 | of the power of God in you. Use it but for one instant, and you | will never deny it again. Who can deny the Presence of what the |
| Tx:15.22 | When you strive for anything in this world with the belief that it | will bring you peace, you are belittling yourself and blinding |
| Tx:15.22 | glory are the choices open to your striving and your vigilance. You | will always choose one at the expense of the other. |
| Tx:15.23 | choice is your evaluation of yourself. Choose littleness and you | will not have peace, for you will have judged yourself unworthy of |
| Tx:15.23 | of yourself. Choose littleness and you will not have peace, for you | will have judged yourself unworthy of it. And whatever you offer as a |
| Tx:15.23 | content you. You are free to try as many as you wish, but all you | will be doing is to delay your homecoming. For you will be content |
| Tx:15.23 | wish, but all you will be doing is to delay your homecoming. For you | will be content only in magnitude, which is your home. |
| Tx:15.24 | and one which you must learn to remember all the time. The lesson | will seem hard at first, but you will learn to love it when you |
| Tx:15.24 | remember all the time. The lesson will seem hard at first, but you | will learn to love it when you realize that it is true and |
| Tx:15.24 | Believe the little can content you, and by limiting yourself, you | will not be satisfied. For your function is not little, and it is |
| Tx:15.26 | The power of God | will support every effort you make on behalf of His dear Son. Search |
| Tx:15.27 | with Him. Every decision you make is for Heaven or for hell and | will bring you awareness of what you decided for. The Holy Spirit can |
| Tx:15.30 | you have given slip into nothingness. Holy Child of God, when | will you learn that only holiness can content you and give you peace? |
| Tx:15.32 | Decide with me, who have decided to abide with you. I | will as my Father wills, knowing His Will is constant and at peace |
| Tx:15.32 | decided to abide with you. I will as my Father wills, knowing His | Will is constant and at peace forever with Itself. You will be |
| Tx:15.32 | knowing His Will is constant and at peace forever with Itself. You | will be content with nothing but His Will. Accept no less, |
| Tx:15.32 | peace forever with Itself. You will be content with nothing but His | Will. Accept no less, remembering that everything I learned is yours. |
| Tx:15.32 | no more can you. When you have learned to accept what you are, you | will make no more gifts to offer to yourselves, for you will know you |
| Tx:15.32 | you are, you will make no more gifts to offer to yourselves, for you | will know you are complete, in need of nothing, and unable to accept |
| Tx:15.32 | need of nothing, and unable to accept anything for yourself. But you | will gladly give, having received. The host of God need not seek to |
| Tx:15.33 | God and unwilling to attempt to grasp for peace yourself, salvation | will be given you. Yet think not you can substitute your plan for |
| Tx:15.33 | bound, proclaiming together that the Son of God is host to Him. Thus | will we let no one forget what you would remember. And thus will you |
| Tx:15.33 | Thus will we let no one forget what you would remember. And thus | will you remember it. |
| Tx:15.34 | that is in him. For where you would help your brother be, there | will you think you are. Hear not his call for hell and littleness, |
| Tx:15.35 | this means only that you would rather delay the recognition that His | Will is so. The holy instant is this one and every one. The one you |
| Tx:15.35 | it is. Delay it not. For beyond the past and future, in which you | will not find it, it stands in shimmering readiness for your |
| Tx:15.36 | willingness to let all littleness go. The instant in which magnitude | will dawn upon you is but as far away as your desire for it. As long |
| Tx:15.36 | instead, by so much is it far from you. By so much as you want it | will you bring it nearer. Think not that you can find salvation in |
| Tx:15.36 | that you have made for your salvation in exchange for God's. His | will content you, and there is nothing else that can bring you peace. |
| Tx:15.37 | plan of salvation that is apart from Him diminishes the value of His | Will for you in your own minds. And yet it is your mind that is the |
| Tx:15.38 | is the holy altar on which your Father has placed Himself? This you | will recognize in the holy instant in which you willingly and gladly |
| Tx:15.39 | to accept me is the measure of the time in which the holy instant | will be yours. I call to you to make the holy instant yours at once, |
| Tx:15.40 | Do not obscure the simplicity of this reason, for if you do, it | will be only because you prefer not to recognize it and not to let it |
| Tx:15.42 | received with equal willingness, being the acceptance of the single | will that governs all thought. |
| Tx:15.43 | it would not be Atonement if there were no need for Atonement. You | will not be able to accept perfect communication as long as you would |
| Tx:15.44 | all your awareness to the readiness for purity He offers you. Thus | will He make you ready to acknowledge that you are host to God and |
| Tx:15.49 | He can translate them into holiness by removing as much fear as you | will let Him. You can place any relationship under His care and be |
| Tx:15.49 | You can place any relationship under His care and be sure that it | will not result in pain if you offer Him your willingness to have it |
| Tx:15.52 | and them. In the holy instant, you see in each relationship what it | will be when you perceive only the present. |
| Tx:15.56 | in yourself. And this you cannot have while guilt remains. And there | will be guilt as long as you accept the possibility, and cherish it, |
| Tx:15.62 | He offered it to me and I accepted it. Fear not the holy instant | will be denied you, for I denied it not. And through me the Holy |
| Tx:15.62 | it not. And through me the Holy Spirit gave it unto you, as you | will give it. Let no need that you perceive obscure your need of |
| Tx:15.62 | you perceive obscure your need of this. For in the holy instant, you | will recognize the only need the aspects of the Son of God share |
| Tx:15.62 | aspects of the Son of God share equally, and by this recognition you | will join with me in offering what is needed. |
| Tx:15.63 | It is through us that peace | will come. Join me in the idea of peace, for in ideas minds can |
| Tx:15.63 | If you would give yourself as your Father gives His Self, you | will learn to understand Selfhood. And therein is love's meaning |
| Tx:15.63 | the language of communication, which you know perfectly, you | will not remember. |
| Tx:15.64 | brothers to replace it in your awareness. God and the power of God | will take their rightful place in you, and you will experience the |
| Tx:15.64 | and the power of God will take their rightful place in you, and you | will experience the full communication of ideas with ideas. Through |
| Tx:15.64 | of ideas with ideas. Through your ability to do this, you | will learn what you must be, for you will begin to understand what |
| Tx:15.64 | your ability to do this, you will learn what you must be, for you | will begin to understand what your Creator is and what His creation |
| Tx:15.67 | completely in the dark. As we bring it to light, your only question | will be why it was you ever wanted it. You have nothing to lose by |
| Tx:15.68 | intentions. It counsels, therefore, that if you are host to it, it | will enable you to direct the anger that it holds outward, thus |
| Tx:15.69 | let the Holy Spirit judge them truly. For it is certain that, if you | will look at them, you will offer them gladly to Him. What He can |
| Tx:15.69 | them truly. For it is certain that, if you will look at them, you | will offer them gladly to Him. What He can make of them, you do not |
| Tx:15.69 | gladly to Him. What He can make of them, you do not know, but you | will become willing to find out if you are willing, first, to |
| Tx:15.74 | Anger takes many forms, but it cannot long deceive those who | will learn that love brings no guilt at all, and what brings guilt |
| Tx:15.74 | only need the ego has, and as long as you identify with it, guilt | will remain attractive to you. |
| Tx:15.75 | to be with a body is not communication. And if you think it is, you | will feel guilty about communication and will be afraid to hear the |
| Tx:15.75 | And if you think it is, you will feel guilty about communication and | will be afraid to hear the Holy Spirit, recognizing in His voice your |
| Tx:15.75 | alone? It is clearly insane to believe that by communicating you | will be abandoned. And yet you do believe it. For you think that your |
| Tx:15.75 | it. For you think that your minds must be kept private or you | will lose them, and if your bodies are together your minds remain |
| Tx:15.76 | As long as you believe that to be with a body is companionship, you | will be compelled to attempt to keep your brother in his body, held |
| Tx:15.76 | to keep your brother in his body, held there by guilt. And you | will see safety in guilt and danger in communication. For the ego |
| Tx:15.76 | will see safety in guilt and danger in communication. For the ego | will always teach that loneliness is solved by guilt and that |
| Tx:15.77 | communication is damnation that communication is salvation. And He | will do so, for the power of God in Him and you is joined in real |
| Tx:15.79 | which He perceives as clearly as He knows forgiveness is release, He | will teach you to remember that forgiveness is not loss but your |
| Tx:15.80 | You but seek in them what you have thrown away. And through them you | will never learn the value of what you have cast aside but what you |
| Tx:15.80 | need so great. Behold the only need that God and His Son share and | will to meet together. You are not alone in this. The will of your |
| Tx:15.80 | Son share and will to meet together. You are not alone in this. The | will of your creations calls to you to share your will with them. |
| Tx:15.80 | alone in this. The will of your creations calls to you to share your | will with them. Turn, then, in peace from guilt to God and them. |
| Tx:15.81 | Relate only with what | will never leave you and what you can never leave. The loneliness of |
| Tx:15.81 | Fear not to give redemption over to your Redeemer's love. He | will not fail you, for He comes from One Who cannot fail. Accept your |
| Tx:15.83 | He does not understand. And because of the Source of the attempt, it | will succeed. The Holy Spirit asks you to respond as God does, for He |
| Tx:15.84 | by removing every element of disagreement, to join them into one. He | will do this because it is His function. Leave, then, what seems to |
| Tx:15.84 | be impossible to Him Who knows it must be possible because it is the | Will of God. And let Him Whose teaching is only of God teach you the |
| Tx:15.85 | it is needful for you to learn just what this shift entails, so you | will become willing to make it permanent. Given this willingness, it |
| Tx:15.85 | will become willing to make it permanent. Given this willingness, it | will not leave you, for it is permanent. For once you have accepted |
| Tx:15.85 | it is the only step in it He understands. Therefore, in this there | will be no delay when you are ready for it. God is ready now, but you |
| Tx:15.86 | be unlimited in order to have meaning, and deprived of meaning, it | will not satisfy you completely. Yet it remains the only means by |
| Tx:15.87 | a body for its purposes, and while you think it has a purpose, you | will choose to utilize the means by which it tries to turn its |
| Tx:15.87 | by which it tries to turn its purpose into accomplishment. This | will never be accomplished. Yet you have surely recognized that the |
| Tx:15.87 | recognized that the ego, whose goals are altogether unattainable, | will strive for them with all its might and will do so with the |
| Tx:15.87 | altogether unattainable, will strive for them with all its might and | will do so with the strength which you have given it. |
| Tx:15.88 | ineffectual. Limit your vision of a brother to his body, which you | will do as long as you would not release him from it, and you have |
| Tx:15.89 | speak of this and long remain willing to linger here. For it is your | will to be in Heaven, where you are complete and quiet in such sure |
| Tx:15.91 | you place no value on it as a means for getting anything, then there | will be no interference in communication, and your thoughts will be |
| Tx:15.91 | there will be no interference in communication, and your thoughts | will be as free as God's. As you let the Holy Spirit teach you how to |
| Tx:15.91 | its use for separation and attack which the ego sees in it, you | will learn you have no need of a body at all. In the holy instant |
| Tx:15.92 | gift I can accept of you is the gift I gave to you. Release me as I | will your release. The time of Christ we celebrate together, for it |
| Tx:15.93 | restored to him. What other gift can you offer me, when only this I | will to offer you? And to see me is to see me in everyone and offer |
| Tx:15.94 | When you are willing to accept our relationship as real, guilt | will hold no attraction for you. For in our union, you will accept |
| Tx:15.94 | real, guilt will hold no attraction for you. For in our union, you | will accept all of our brothers. The gift of union is the only gift |
| Tx:15.97 | is treacherous only to those who think they are its host. The ego | will never let you perceive this, since this recognition would make |
| Tx:15.97 | would make it homeless. For when this recognition dawns clearly, you | will not be deceived by any form the ego takes to protect itself from |
| Tx:15.98 | Each form | will be recognized as but a cover for the one idea that hides behind |
| Tx:15.99 | you and does demand total sacrifice of you. No partial sacrifice | will appease this savage guest, for it is an invader who but seems to |
| Tx:15.100 | You | will not succeed in being partial hostage to the ego, for it keeps no |
| Tx:15.100 | would leave you nothing. [Nor can you be partial host to it.] You | will have to choose between total freedom and total bondage, for |
| Tx:15.103 | for release is total, and when you have accepted it with me, you | will give it with me. All pain and sacrifice and littleness will |
| Tx:15.103 | me, you will give it with me. All pain and sacrifice and littleness | will disappear in our relationship, which is as innocent as our |
| Tx:15.103 | innocent as our relationship with our Father, and as powerful. Pain | will be brought to us and disappear in our presence, and without pain |
| Tx:15.105 | As long as you perceive the body as your reality, so long | will you perceive yourself as lonely and deprived. And so long will |
| Tx:15.105 | long will you perceive yourself as lonely and deprived. And so long | will you also perceive yourself as a victim of sacrifice, justified |
| Tx:15.107 | means of communication. And if you understand this lesson, you | will realize that to sacrifice the body is to sacrifice nothing, and |
| Tx:15.108 | in celebrating peace by demanding no sacrifice of anyone, for so | will you offer me the love I offer you. What can be more joyous than |
| Tx:15.110 | This is the weekend in which a new year | will be born from the time of Christ. I have perfect faith in you to |
| Tx:15.110 | perfect faith in you to do all that you would accomplish. Nothing | will be lacking, and you will make complete and not destroy. Say and |
| Tx:15.110 | do all that you would accomplish. Nothing will be lacking, and you | will make complete and not destroy. Say and understand this: |
| Tx:15.111 | I give you to the Holy Spirit as part of myself. I know that you | will be released, unless I want to use you to imprison myself. In the |
| Tx:15.111 | I want to use you to imprison myself. In the name of my freedom I | will your release, because I recognize that we will be released |
| Tx:15.111 | name of my freedom I will your release, because I recognize that we | will be released together. |
| Tx:15.112 | So | will the year begin in joy and freedom. There is much to do, and we |
| Tx:15.112 | And let all your relationships be made holy for you. This is our | will. Amen. |
| Tx:16.2 | know what empathizing means. Yet of this you may be sure—if you | will merely sit quietly by and let the Holy Spirit relate through |
| Tx:16.2 | sit quietly by and let the Holy Spirit relate through you, you | will empathize with strength and both of you will gain in strength, |
| Tx:16.2 | relate through you, you will empathize with strength and both of you | will gain in strength, and not in weakness. |
| Tx:16.3 | you do not want anything you value to come of the relationship. You | will neither to hurt it nor to heal it in your own way. You do not |
| Tx:16.5 | True empathy is of Him Who knows what it is. You | will learn His interpretation of it if you let Him use your capacity |
| Tx:16.5 | you let Him use your capacity for strength and not for weakness. He | will not desert you, but be sure that you desert not him. Humility is |
| Tx:16.5 | and accept the fact that He does know. You are not sure that He | will do His part because you have never yet done yours completely. |
| Tx:16.5 | do His part because you have never yet done yours completely. You | will not know how to respond to what you do not understand. Be |
| Tx:16.6 | learner; He the Teacher. Do not confuse your role with His, for this | will never bring peace to anyone. Offer your empathy to Him, for it |
| Tx:16.7 | thing that would hurt either him or you, for what would hurt one | will hurt the other. Foolish requests are foolish for the simple |
| Tx:16.7 | Holy Spirit recognizes foolish needs as well as real ones. And He | will teach you how to meet both without losing either. |
| Tx:16.8 | You | will attempt to do this only in secrecy. And you will think that, by |
| Tx:16.8 | You will attempt to do this only in secrecy. And you | will think that, by meeting the needs of one, you do not jeopardize |
| Tx:16.8 | That is not the way, for it leads not to light and truth. No needs | will long be left unmet if you leave them all to Him Whose function |
| Tx:16.8 | function is to meet them. That is His function and not yours. He | will not meet them secretly, for He would share everything you give |
| Tx:16.9 | whole Sonship, not for part of it. Leave Him His function, for He | will fulfill it if you but ask Him to enter your relationships and |
| Tx:16.16 | No evidence | will convince you of the truth of what you do not want. Yet your |
| Tx:16.16 | For you have come too near to truth to renounce it now, and you | will yield to its compelling attraction. You can delay this now but |
| Tx:16.16 | The Host of God has called to you, and you have heard. Never again | will you be wholly willing not to listen. |
| Tx:16.17 | This is a year of joy in which your listening | will increase, and peace will grow with its increase. The power of |
| Tx:16.17 | is a year of joy in which your listening will increase, and peace | will grow with its increase. The power of holiness and the weakness |
| Tx:16.19 | to accept this and be glad. For love asks only that you be happy and | will give you everything that makes for happiness. You have never |
| Tx:16.19 | given any problem to the Holy Spirit He has not solved for you, nor | will you ever do so. You have never tried to solve anything yourself |
| Tx:16.21 | have not learned how to accept the comfort of your teaching. If you | will consider what you have taught and how alien it is to what you |
| Tx:16.21 | have taught and how alien it is to what you thought you knew, you | will be compelled to recognize that your Teacher came from beyond |
| Tx:16.25 | you together, keeping one with you what you would exclude. And they | will take the place of what you took in to replace them. They are |
| Tx:16.27 | This year you | will begin to learn and make learning commensurate with teaching. You |
| Tx:16.27 | to teach. Though you seemed to suffer for it, the joy of teaching | will yet be yours. For the joy of teaching is in the learner, who |
| Tx:16.27 | you learn, your gratitude to your Self, Who teaches you what He is, | will grow and help you honor Him. And you will learn His power and |
| Tx:16.27 | teaches you what He is, will grow and help you honor Him. And you | will learn His power and strength and purity, and love Him as His |
| Tx:16.28 | powerfully supplemented by the strength of Heaven and by the united | will of all who make Heaven what it is, being joined within it. And |
| Tx:16.29 | the attraction of those who stand on the other side and wait for you | will not draw you safely across. For you will come where you would be |
| Tx:16.29 | other side and wait for you will not draw you safely across. For you | will come where you would be and where your Self awaits you. |
| Tx:16.30 | solely to offset the hate but not to let it go. Your salvation | will rise clearly before your open eyes as you look on this. You |
| Tx:16.30 | look on this. You cannot limit hate. The special love relationship | will not offset it but will merely drive it underground and out of |
| Tx:16.30 | limit hate. The special love relationship will not offset it but | will merely drive it underground and out of sight. It is essential to |
| Tx:16.30 | that lies in this you do not realize. And until you do, the split | will remain unrecognized and therefore unhealed. |
| Tx:16.31 | and the symbol of love is without meaning if love is everything. You | will go through this last undoing quite unharmed and will at last |
| Tx:16.31 | everything. You will go through this last undoing quite unharmed and | will at last emerge as yourself. This is the last step in the |
| Tx:16.31 | readiness for God. Be not unwilling now. You are too near, and you | will cross the bridge in perfect safety, translated quietly from war |
| Tx:16.31 | translated quietly from war to peace. For the illusion of love | will never satisfy, but its reality, which awaits you on the other |
| Tx:16.31 | never satisfy, but its reality, which awaits you on the other side, | will give you everything. |
| Tx:16.34 | both illusions. As long as the illusion of hatred lasts, so long | will love be an illusion to you. And then the only choice which |
| Tx:16.35 | that you perceive hatred within and are afraid of it. Yet peace | will never come from the illusion of love, but only from its reality. |
| Tx:16.38 | Across the bridge is your completion, for you | will be wholly in God, willing for nothing special but only to be |
| Tx:16.39 | must lead to knowledge, for it was built with God beside you and | will lead you straight to Him, where your completion rests wholly |

| Tx:16.50 | For neither one will recognize that he has asked for hell, and so he | will not interfere with the ego's illusion of Heaven, which it |
| Tx:16.53 | and over this ritual is enacted. And it is never completed nor ever | will be completed. For the ritual of completion cannot complete, and |
| Tx:16.54 | the expense of content. There is no meaning in the form, and there | will never be. The special relationship must be recognized for what |
| Tx:16.56 | to which you fail to recognize them for what they are, and you | will fail to do this to the extent to which you want them to be true. |
| Tx:16.56 | between truth and illusion, God and fantasy. Remember this and you | will have no difficulty in perceiving the decision as just what it is |
| Tx:16.58 | easiest decision that ever confronted you and also the only one. You | will cross the bridge into reality simply because you will recognize |
| Tx:16.58 | only one. You will cross the bridge into reality simply because you | will recognize that God is on the other side and nothing at all is |
| Tx:16.59 | it is. Love has no meaning except as its Creator defined it by His | Will. It is impossible to define it otherwise and understand it. |

| Tx:16.60 | As you release, so will you be released. Forget this not, or love | will be unable to find you and comfort you. There is a way in which |
| Tx:16.61 | you value it, you must also value the body. And what you value, you | will keep. The special relationship is a device for limiting your |
| Tx:16.63 | the value of the body is so diminished in your sight that you | will see no need at all to magnify it. For you will realize that the |
| Tx:16.63 | your sight that you will see no need at all to magnify it. For you | will realize that the only value which the body has is to enable you |

| Tx:16.65 | hurled into reality. Time is kind, and if you use it for reality, it | will keep gentle pace with you in your transition. The urgency is |
| Tx:16.65 | only in dislodging your minds from their fixed position here. This | will not leave you homeless and without a frame of reference. The |
| Tx:16.65 | the time it took to fix your minds so firmly on illusions. Delay | will hurt you now more than before only because you realize it is |

| Tx:17.6 | anything except your willingness to have this be accomplished. He | will accomplish it; not you. But forget not this: When you become |
| Tx:17.6 | him, you restore to truth what was denied by both of you. And you | will see forgiveness where you have given it. |
| Tx:17.7 | Can you imagine how beautiful those you forgive | will look to you? In no fantasy have you ever seen anything so |
| Tx:17.7 | here, sleeping or waking, comes near to such loveliness. And nothing | will you value like unto this nor hold so dear. Nothing that you |

| Tx:17.11 | the light of the real reason which He brings, as you follow Him, He | will show you that there is no reason here at all. Each spot His |

| Tx:17.21 | you will be unwilling ever to lose the sight of it again. And you | will let it transform the relationship so you can see it more and |
| Tx:17.21 | transform the relationship so you can see it more and more. For you | will want it more and more and become increasingly unwilling to let |
| Tx:17.21 | become increasingly unwilling to let it be hidden from you. And you | will learn to seek for and establish conditions in which this beauty |
| Tx:17.22 | All this you | will do gladly if you but let Him hold the spark before you to light |
| Tx:17.25 | that to choose one is to let the other go. Which one you choose you | will endow with beauty and reality because the choice depends on |
| Tx:17.28 | but would transform them. And by that all that is meant is that He | will restore to them the function given them by God. The function you |
| Tx:17.28 | special relationship which you have made is a substitute for God's | Will and glorifies yours instead of His because of the delusion that |
| Tx:17.29 | purpose the aim of occupying your minds so completely that you | will not hear the call of truth. In a sense the special relationship |
| Tx:17.32 | you have been more willing to let go. While this one remains, you | will not let the others go. For this one is not different. Retain |
| Tx:17.35 | This gift is given you for your damnation, and if you take it, you | will believe that you are damned. You cannot have the frame without |
| Tx:17.37 | is a picture, too, set in a frame. Yet if you accept this gift, you | will not see the frame at all because the gift can only be accepted |
| Tx:17.37 | set in a frame of time. If you focus on the picture, you | will realize that it was only the frame that made you think it was a |
| Tx:17.40 | just a picture is brought home at last. And what you see there, you | will recognize as what it is—a picture of what you thought was real |
| Tx:17.40 | you thought was real and nothing more. For beyond this picture, you | will see nothing. |
| Tx:17.42 | As God ascends into His rightful place and you to yours, you | will experience again the meaning of relationship and know it to be |
| Tx:17.42 | together to the Father by giving Him ascendance in our minds. We | will gain everything by giving Him the power and the glory and |
| Tx:17.46 | is so apparent that they cannot coexist. Yet now the goal | will not be changed. Set firmly in the unholy relationship, there is |
| Tx:17.49 | He asks for faith a little longer, even in bewilderment. For this | will go, and you will see the justification for your faith emerge to |
| Tx:17.49 | a little longer, even in bewilderment. For this will go, and you | will see the justification for your faith emerge to bring you shining |
| Tx:17.50 | to you as you perceive its purpose work in it to make it holy. You | will find many opportunities to blame each other for the “failure” of |
| Tx:17.50 | to blame each other for the “failure” of your relationship, for it | will seem at times to have no purpose. A sense of aimlessness will |
| Tx:17.50 | for it will seem at times to have no purpose. A sense of aimlessness | will come to haunt you and to remind you of all the ways you once |
| Tx:17.51 | far more familiar than you now believe. Is it not certain that you | will remember a goal unchanged throughout eternity? For you have |
| Tx:17.52 | holy instant, and they have joined with you. Think not your choice | will leave you comfortless, for God Himself has blessed your holy |
| Tx:17.55 | Here is the goal, together with you. Think you not the goal itself | will gladly arrange the means for its accomplishment? It is just this |
| Tx:17.56 | Yet the goal is fixed, firm, and unalterable, and the means | will surely fall in place because the goal is sure. And you will |
| Tx:17.56 | means will surely fall in place because the goal is sure. And you | will share the gladness of the Sonship that it is so. As you begin to |
| Tx:17.56 | and accept the gifts you have so freely given to each other, you | will also accept the effects of the holy instant and use them to |
| Tx:17.56 | mistakes and free you from their results. And learning this, you | will have also learned how to release all the Sonship and offer it in |
| Tx:17.57 | be clear. The setting of the Holy Spirit's goal is general. Now He | will work with you to make it specific [for application is specific]. |
| Tx:17.58 | of the goal belongs at the beginning, for it is this which | will determine the outcome. In the ego's procedure, this is reversed. |
| Tx:17.59 | at it and try to piece together what it must have meant. And you | will be wrong. Not only is your judgment in the past, but you have no |
| Tx:17.60 | of deciding in advance what you want to happen is simply that you | will perceive the situation as a means to make it happen. You will |
| Tx:17.60 | you will perceive the situation as a means to make it happen. You | will therefore make every effort to overlook what interferes with the |
| Tx:17.61 | experience peace, it is because the truth has come to you, and you | will see the outcome truly, for deception cannot prevail against you. |
| Tx:17.61 | the outcome truly, for deception cannot prevail against you. And you | will recognize the outcome because you are at peace. Here again, you |
| Tx:17.62 | a whole. The goal establishes the fact that everyone involved in it | will play his part in its accomplishment. This is inevitable. No one |
| Tx:17.62 | will play his part in its accomplishment. This is inevitable. No one | will fail in anything. This seems to ask for faith beyond you and |
| Tx:17.63 | any aspect of the situation which seems to be difficult, the ego | will attempt to take this aspect elsewhere and resolve it there. And |
| Tx:17.63 | attempt to take this aspect elsewhere and resolve it there. And it | will seem to be successful, except that this attempt conflicts with |
| Tx:17.63 | conflicts with unity and must obscure the goal of truth. And peace | will not be experienced except in fantasy. Truth has not come because |
| Tx:17.65 | There is no problem in any situation that faith | will not solve. There is no shift in any aspect of the problem but |
| Tx:17.65 | will not solve. There is no shift in any aspect of the problem but | will make solution impossible. For if you shift part of the problem |
| Tx:17.66 | which then becomes the justification for your lack of faith. You | will make this error, but be not at all concerned with that. The |
| Tx:17.66 | with that. The error does not matter. Faithlessness brought to faith | will never interfere with truth. But faithlessness used against truth |
| Tx:17.66 | never interfere with truth. But faithlessness used against truth | will always destroy faith. If you lack faith, ask that it be restored |
| Tx:17.67 | must grow to meet the goal that has been set. The goal's reality | will call this forth, for you will see that peace and faith will not |
| Tx:17.67 | that has been set. The goal's reality will call this forth, for you | will see that peace and faith will not come separately. What |
| Tx:17.67 | reality will call this forth, for you will see that peace and faith | will not come separately. What situation can you be in without faith |
| Tx:17.68 | servant of illusion and wholly faithful to its master. Use it and it | will carry you straight to illusions. Be tempted not by what it |
| Tx:17.69 | in hand, so must its faith go everywhere with it. The goal's reality | will call forth and accomplish every miracle needed for its |
| Tx:17.69 | Nothing too small or too enormous, too weak or too compelling, but | will be gently turned to its use and purpose. The universe will serve |
| Tx:17.69 | but will be gently turned to its use and purpose. The universe | will serve it gladly, as it serves the universe. But do not interfere. |
| Tx:17.72 | other, or you are faithless to your own relationship. Your faith | will call the others to share your purpose, as this same purpose |
| Tx:17.72 | purpose, as this same purpose called forth the faith in you. And you | will see the means you once employed to lead you to illusions |
| Tx:17.72 | placed there was extended to every situation in which you enter or | will ever enter. And every situation was thus made free of the past, |
| Tx:17.75 | faith is asked of you, for truth asks nothing. Let it enter, and it | will call forth and secure for you the faith you need for peace. But |
| Tx:17.78 | is your only purpose. See only this in every situation, and it | will be a means for bringing only this. |
| Tx:17.79 | what he does not believe is real. Your purpose has not changed and | will not change, for you accepted what can never change. And nothing |
| Tx:18.6 | rise to frighten you, say only, “God is not fear, but love,” and it | will disappear. |
| Tx:18.7 | The truth | will save you. It has not left you to go out into the mad world and |
| Tx:18.9 | you are with Him. The original error has not entered here, nor ever | will. Here is the radiant truth to which the Holy Spirit has |
| Tx:18.13 | is offered you in your holy relationship. Accept it here, and you | will give as you have accepted. The peace of God is given you with |
| Tx:18.16 | a time, it seems as if the world were given you, to make it what you | will. You do not realize that you are attacking it, trying to triumph |
| Tx:18.19 | waking. And while you see more value in sleeping than in waking, you | will not let go of it. |
| Tx:18.20 | a help to make His purpose real to you.] Your special relationship | will remain, not as a source of pain and guilt, but as a source of |
| Tx:18.20 | a source of pain and guilt, but as a source of joy and freedom. It | will not be for you alone, for therein lay its misery. As its |
| Tx:18.20 | its misery. As its unholiness kept it a thing apart, its holiness | will become an offering to everyone. |
| Tx:18.21 | Your special relationship | will be a means for undoing guilt in everyone blessed through your |
| Tx:18.21 | undoing guilt in everyone blessed through your holy relationship. It | will be a happy dream, and one which you will share with all who come |
| Tx:18.21 | your holy relationship. It will be a happy dream, and one which you | will share with all who come within your sight. Through it, the |
| Tx:18.21 | Through it, the blessing which the Holy Spirit has laid upon it | will be extended. Think not that He has forgotten anyone in the |
| Tx:18.21 | who calls on Him as means for the salvation of everyone. And He | will waken everyone through you who offered your relationship to Him. |
| Tx:18.23 | your mind, so do the real world and the truth of Heaven join in the | Will of God. The dream of waking is easily transferred to its |
| Tx:18.23 | is easily transferred to its reality. For this dream comes from your | will joined with the Will of God. And what this will would have |
| Tx:18.23 | to its reality. For this dream comes from your will joined with the | Will of God. And what this will would have accomplished has never not |
| Tx:18.23 | comes from your will joined with the Will of God. And what this | will would have accomplished has never not been done. |
| Tx:18.25 | As the light comes nearer, you | will rush to darkness, shrinking from the truth, sometimes retreating |
| Tx:18.25 | to the lesser forms of fear and sometimes to stark terror. But you | will advance because your goal is the advance from fear to truth. You |
| Tx:18.25 | back. Let us then join quickly in an instant of light, and it | will be enough to remind you that your goal is light. Truth has |
| Tx:18.27 | not to snatch away the gift of faith you offered to each other. You | will succeed only in frightening yourselves. The gift is given |
| Tx:18.27 | the wish to understand. That wish was the desire to be holy. The | Will of God is granted you. For you desire the only thing you ever |
| Tx:18.28 | Each instant that we spend together | will teach you that this goal is possible and will strengthen your |
| Tx:18.28 | that we spend together will teach you that this goal is possible and | will strengthen your desire to reach it. And in your desire lies its |
| Tx:18.28 | is now in complete accord with all the power of the Holy Spirit's | will. No little, faltering footsteps that you may take can separate |
| Tx:18.28 | footsteps that you may take can separate your desire from His | Will and from His strength. I hold your hand as surely as you agreed |
| Tx:18.28 | I hold your hand as surely as you agreed to take each other's. You | will not separate, for I stand with you and walk with you in your |
| Tx:18.29 | to everyone who would remain in darkness. Those who would see | will see. And they will join with me in carrying their light into the |
| Tx:18.29 | who would remain in darkness. Those who would see will see. And they | will join with me in carrying their light into the darkness when the |
| Tx:18.31 | undertook apart and which led nowhere. You have found each other and | will light each other's way. And from this light will the Great Rays |
| Tx:18.31 | each other and will light each other's way. And from this light | will the Great Rays extend back into darkness and forward unto God to |
| Tx:18.32 | Do not attempt to give the Holy Spirit what He does not ask, or you | will add the ego unto Him and confuse the two. He asks but little. It |
| Tx:18.34 | Humility | will never ask that you remain content with littleness. But it does |
| Tx:18.34 | cannot enter where He wills to be, you must be interfering with His | Will. You do not need the strength of willingness to come from you, |
| Tx:18.34 | need the strength of willingness to come from you, but only from His | Will. |
| Tx:18.35 | of your small willingness combined with the unlimited power of God's | Will. You have been wrong in thinking that it is needful to prepare |
| Tx:18.38 | And that is all. Add more and you | will merely take away the little that is asked. Remember you made |
| Tx:18.38 | to it and make salvation fearful. And it is only fear that you | will add if you prepare yourself for love. The preparation for the |
| Tx:18.40 | and easy for you impossible. What you believe to be impossible | will be if God so wills it, but you will remain quite unaware of it. |
| Tx:18.40 | you believe to be impossible will be if God so wills it, but you | will remain quite unaware of it. If you believe the holy instant is |
| Tx:18.42 | be forgiven. On your little faith, joined with His understanding, He | will build your part in the Atonement and make sure that you fulfill |
| Tx:18.42 | Atonement and make sure that you fulfill it easily. And with Him you | will build a ladder planted in the solid rock of faith and rising |
| Tx:18.42 | planted in the solid rock of faith and rising even to Heaven. Nor | will you use it to ascend to Heaven alone. |
| Tx:18.43 | blessed in every holy instant which you do not arrange, thousands | will rise to Heaven with you. Can you plan for this? Or could you |
| Tx:18.43 | for such a function? Yet it is possible because God wills it. Nor | will He change His Mind about it. The means and purpose both belong |
| Tx:18.43 | and purpose both belong to Him. You have accepted one; the other | will be provided. A purpose such as this without the means is |
| Tx:18.43 | A purpose such as this without the means is inconceivable. He | will provide the means to anyone who shares His purpose. |
| Tx:18.44 | they are happy. And so they must be loving. Their message is, “Thy | will be done,” and not, “I want it otherwise.” The alignment of means |
| Tx:18.45 | very useful to the Holy Spirit, Who has a special function here. It | will become the happy dream through which He can spread joy to |
| Tx:18.45 | He gave to your relationship by accepting it for you, and nothing | will be wanting that would make of it what He would have it be. |
| Tx:18.46 | this instant for the holy one which you would rather have. He | will never fail in this. But forget not that your relationship is |
| Tx:18.46 | the holy instant come to either of you without the other. And it | will come to both at the request of either. |
| Tx:18.51 | the mind believes the body is actually acting out its fantasies, it | will attack the body by increasing the projection of its guilt upon |
| Tx:18.52 | believes it has attacked the body. It can project its guilt, but it | will not lose it through projection. And though it clearly can |
| Tx:18.53 | And what God created is only what He would have it be, being His | Will. You cannot make His Will destructive. You can make fantasies in |
| Tx:18.53 | only what He would have it be, being His Will. You cannot make His | Will destructive. You can make fantasies in which your will conflicts |
| Tx:18.53 | make His Will destructive. You can make fantasies in which your | will conflicts with His, but that is all. |
| Tx:18.59 | If you | will consider what this “transportation” really entails, you will |
| Tx:18.59 | If you will consider what this “transportation” really entails, you | will realize that it is a sudden unawareness of the body and a |
| Tx:18.62 | a “breaking out,” but merely by a quiet “melting in.” For peace | will join you there simply because you have been willing to let go |
| Tx:18.64 | this instant that the miracle of Atonement happens. Afterwards, you | will see the body again, but never quite the same. And every instant |
| Tx:18.66 | aimed at detachment from the body necessary. All such attempts | will ultimately succeed because of their purpose. Yet the means are |
| Tx:18.67 | Your way | will be different, not in purpose but in means. A holy relationship |
| Tx:18.68 | Here is the ultimate release which everyone | will one day find in his own way, at his own time. We do not need |
| Tx:18.68 | a truly undivided loyalty. Believe it for just one instant, and you | will accomplish more than is given to a century of contemplation or |
| Tx:18.69 | Into this place the Holy Spirit comes and there abides. He | will remain when you forget and the body's activities return to |
| Tx:18.70 | Yet there | will always be this place of rest to which you can return. And you |
| Tx:18.70 | will always be this place of rest to which you can return. And you | will be more aware of this quiet center of the storm than all its |
| Tx:18.70 | all its raging activity. This quiet center, in which you do nothing, | will remain with you, giving you rest in the midst of every busy |
| Tx:18.70 | of every busy doing on which you are sent. For from this center | will you be directed how to use the body sinlessly. It is this |
| Tx:18.70 | sinlessly. It is this center, from which the body is absent, that | will keep it so in your awareness of it. |
| Tx:18.72 | know. And while you limit your awareness to its tiny senses, you | will not see the grandeur which surrounds you. God cannot come into a |

| Tx:18.80 | kingdoms locked away from love and leaving you inside. And you | will recognize yourself and see your little garden gently transformed |

| Tx:18.82 | yet let go of all the barriers you hold against each other. And you | will not be able to give love welcome separately. You could no more |
| Tx:18.83 | between you. Blow on it lightly and with happy laughter, and it | will fall away. And walk into the garden love has prepared for both |

| Tx:19.4 | illusions centered on the body to stand between you. And the body | will seem to be sick, for you have made of it an “enemy” of healing |

| Tx:19.8 | Truth and illusion have no connection. This | will remain forever true, however much you seek to connect them. But |
| Tx:19.14 | both of you. Lay faithlessness aside and come to it together. There | will you see the miracle of your relationship as it was made again |
| Tx:19.14 | as it was made again through faith. And there it is that you | will realize that there is nothing faith cannot forgive. No error |
| Tx:19.15 | As faithlessness | will keep your little kingdoms barren and separate, so will faith |
| Tx:19.15 | faithlessness will keep your little kingdoms barren and separate, so | will faith help the Holy Spirit prepare the ground for the most holy |
| Tx:19.15 | goal, no longer needed when the lesson has been learned. Yet truth | will stay forever. |
| Tx:19.17 | that minds, not bodies, can attack. And thus the mind is guilty and | will forever so remain unless a mind not part of it can give it |
| Tx:19.18 | what God created not. Thus is creation seen as not eternal, and the | Will of God open to opposition and defeat. Sin is the “grand |

| Tx:19.25 | its sick appeal. Sin is an idea of evil that cannot be corrected and | will be forever desirable. As an essential part of what the ego |
| Tx:19.25 | desirable. As an essential part of what the ego thinks you are, you | will always want it. And only an avenger with a mind unlike your own |

| Tx:19.26 | will be repeated endlessly.] For what you think is real you want and | will not let it go. An error, on the other hand, is not attractive. |

| Tx:19.29 | which can be easily corrected in the mind, although the body's eyes | will see no change. The eyes see many things the mind corrects, and |
| Tx:19.32 | that your reality or your brother's is bounded by a body, you | will believe in sin. While you believe that bodies can unite, you |
| Tx:19.32 | will believe in sin. While you believe that bodies can unite, you | will find guilt attractive and believe that sin is precious. For the |

| Tx:19.34 | and quickly given to correction to be healed, not hidden. You | will be healed of sin and all its ravages the instant that you give |
| Tx:19.34 | the instant that you give it no power over each other. And you | will help each other overcome mistakes by joyously releasing one |
| Tx:19.35 | In the holy instant, you | will see the smile of heaven shining on both of you. And you will |

| Tx:19.37 | happiness and the calm awareness of complete protection. And you | will carry its message of love and safety and freedom to everyone who |
| Tx:19.38 | You | will not wait to give him this, for you will call to him and he will |

| Tx:19.38 | will draw him in and give him rest, as it was given you. All this | will you do. Yet the peace which already lies deeply within must |
| Tx:19.38 | expand and flow across the obstacles you placed before it. This | will you do, for nothing undertaken with the Holy Spirit remains |
| Tx:19.38 | the Holy Spirit asks that you offer Him a resting-place where you | will rest in Him. He answered you and entered your relationship. |
| Tx:19.39 | Spirit, but you can see your brothers truly. And the light in them | will show you all that you need to see. When the peace in you has |
| Tx:19.39 | been extended to encompass everyone, the Holy Spirit's function here | will be accomplished. What need is there for seeing then? When God |
| Tx:19.39 | then? When God has taken the last step Himself, the Holy Spirit | will gather all your thanks and gratitude which you have offered Him |
| Tx:19.39 | before His Creator in the name of His most holy Son. And the Father | will accept them in His Name. What need is there of seeing in the |
| Tx:19.41 | its going forth. This little wall of hatred would still oppose the | Will of God and keep it limited. |
| Tx:19.42 | are still unwilling to let it join you wholly. You still oppose the | Will of God, just by a little. And that little is a limit you would |
| Tx:19.42 | And that little is a limit you would place upon the whole. God's | Will is One, not many. It has no opposition, for there is none beside |
| Tx:19.43 | than from God. Fear not this little obstacle. It cannot contain the | Will of God. Peace will flow across it and join you without |
| Tx:19.43 | not this little obstacle. It cannot contain the Will of God. Peace | will flow across it and join you without hindrance. Salvation cannot |
| Tx:19.43 | cannot be withheld from you. It is your purpose. You cannot | will apart from this. You have no purpose apart from each other nor |
| Tx:19.43 | the one you asked the Holy Spirit to share with you. The little wall | will fall away so quietly beneath the wings of peace! For peace will |
| Tx:19.43 | wall will fall away so quietly beneath the wings of peace! For peace | will send its messengers from you to all the world. And barriers will |
| Tx:19.43 | will send its messengers from you to all the world. And barriers | will fall away before their coming as easily as those which you would |
| Tx:19.43 | before their coming as easily as those which you would interpose | will be surmounted. |
| Tx:19.52 | into the world to feast upon it and to prey upon reality. For they | will bring you word of bones and skin and flesh. They have been |
| Tx:19.53 | what they hold dear as are the others. If you send them forth, they | will see only the blameless and the beautiful, the gentle and the |
| Tx:19.53 | only the blameless and the beautiful, the gentle and the kind. They | will be as careful to let no little act of charity, no tiny |
| Tx:19.53 | forgiveness, no little breath of love escape their notice. And they | will return with all the happy things they found, to share them |
| Tx:19.54 | the Holy Spirit gives you, wanting no messages but theirs, you | will see fear no more. The world will be transformed before your |
| Tx:19.54 | wanting no messages but theirs, you will see fear no more. The world | will be transformed before your sight, cleansed of all guilt and |
| Tx:19.55 | as they join in gentleness before the table of communion. And I | will join you there, as long ago I promised and promise still. For in |
| Tx:19.57 | what you want. While you believe that it can give you pleasure, you | will also believe that it can bring you pain. |
| Tx:19.63 | else. The second obstacle is no more solid than the first. For you | will neither to get rid of peace nor limit it. What are these |
| Tx:19.63 | peace and its going forth but barriers you place between your | will and its accomplishment? You want communion, not the feast of |
| Tx:19.64 | our union, for in your holy relationship, I am there already. We | will surmount all obstacles together, for we stand within the gates |
| Tx:19.65 | the Son of God committed. And in the light of your forgiveness, he | will remember who he is and forget what never was. I ask for your |
| Tx:19.66 | the world the joyous message of the end of guilt, and all the world | will answer. Think of your happiness as everyone offers you witness |
| Tx:19.67 | and release me from punishment for what I have not done. So | will you learn the freedom that I taught by teaching freedom to each |
| Tx:19.67 | Him it is possible that our communion, where we are joined already, | will be the focus of the new perception that will bring light to all |
| Tx:19.67 | we are joined already, will be the focus of the new perception that | will bring light to all the world, contained in you. |
| Tx:19.68 | so am I. And He Who is our home is homeless with us. Is this your | will? Would you forever be a wanderer in search of peace? Would you |
| Tx:19.69 | is forever kind, infinite in its patience, and wholly loving. It | will accept you wholly and give you peace. Yet it can unite only with |
| Tx:19.69 | It has no purpose of itself, but only what is given to it. The body | will seem to be whatever is the means for reaching the goal that you |
| Tx:19.70 | Here is your choice, and it is free. But all that lies in it | will come with it, and what you think you are can never be apart from |
| Tx:19.70 | mistaken in what is faithful. And the correction of your mistake | will give you grounds for faith. |
| Tx:19.71 | and whatever fear directs the body to do is therefore painful. It | will share the pain of all illusions, and the illusion of pleasure |
| Tx:19.71 | will share the pain of all illusions, and the illusion of pleasure | will be the same as pain. |
| Tx:19.72 | Is not this inevitable? Under fear's orders, the body | will pursue guilt, serving its master whose attraction to guilt |
| Tx:19.74 | from you in the belief that for your message of attack and guilt | will someone other than yourself suffer. And even if you suffer, yet |
| Tx:19.74 | other than yourself suffer. And even if you suffer, yet someone else | will suffer more. The great deceiver recognizes that this is not so, |
| Tx:19.79 | This is not arrogance. It is the | Will of God. What is impossible to you who chose His Will as yours? |
| Tx:19.79 | It is the Will of God. What is impossible to you who chose His | Will as yours? What is death to you? Your dedication is not to death |
| Tx:19.80 | and guilt and death, in opposition to life and innocence and to the | Will of God Himself. Where can such opposition lie but in the sick |
| Tx:19.80 | in the funeral procession march not in honor of their Creator, Whose | Will it is they live. They are not following it; they are opposing it. |
| Tx:19.81 | are arrogant. But you who would release him are but honoring the | Will of his Creator. The arrogance of sin, the pride of guilt, the |
| Tx:19.83 | first? The body can but serve your purpose. As you look upon it, so | will it seem to be. Death, were it true, would be the final and |
| Tx:19.86 | The fear of death | will go as its appeal is yielded to love's real attraction. The end |
| Tx:19.87 | you. In its tiny hands, it holds in perfect safety every miracle you | will perform, held out to you. The miracle of life is ageless, born |
| Tx:19.87 | a resting-place by your forgiveness of each other, and see in it the | Will of God. Here is the babe of Bethlehem reborn. And everyone who |
| Tx:19.87 | is the babe of Bethlehem reborn. And everyone who gives him shelter | will follow him, not to the cross, but to the Resurrection and the |
| Tx:19.91 | it, shining with joy because He is in His Father's Love, peace | will lightly brush the veil aside and run to meet Him and to join |
| Tx:19.95 | realize that if you look on this and let the veil be lifted, they | will be gone forever. All of your “friends,” your “protectors,” and |
| Tx:19.95 | forever. All of your “friends,” your “protectors,” and your “home” | will vanish. Nothing that you remember now will you remember. |
| Tx:19.95 | and your “home” will vanish. Nothing that you remember now | will you remember. |
| Tx:19.96 | It seems to you the world | will utterly abandon you if you but raise your eyes. Yet all that |
| Tx:19.96 | will utterly abandon you if you but raise your eyes. Yet all that | will occur is you will leave the world forever. This is the |
| Tx:19.96 | you if you but raise your eyes. Yet all that will occur is you | will leave the world forever. This is the reestablishment of your |
| Tx:19.96 | will leave the world forever. This is the reestablishment of your | will. Look upon it open-eyed and you will nevermore believe that you |
| Tx:19.96 | is the reestablishment of your will. Look upon it open-eyed and you | will nevermore believe that you are at the mercy of things beyond |
| Tx:19.96 | you cannot control, and thoughts that come to you against your | will. It is your will to look on this. No mad desire, no trivial |
| Tx:19.96 | control, and thoughts that come to you against your will. It is your | will to look on this. No mad desire, no trivial impulse to forget |
| Tx:19.96 | of fear, nor the cold sweat of seeming death can stand against your | will. For what attracts you from beyond the veil is also deep within |
| Tx:19.97 | brought you here remains with you, and when you raise your eyes, you | will be ready to look on terror with no fear at all. But first lift |
| Tx:19.98 | brother in his heart. Stand you here a while and tremble not. You | will be ready. Let us join together in a holy instant, here in this |
| Tx:19.98 | you. And let us join in faith that He Who brought us here together | will offer you the innocence you need and that you will accept it for |
| Tx:19.98 | us here together will offer you the innocence you need and that you | will accept it for my love and His. |
| Tx:19.101 | way to fear. Brothers, you need forgiveness of each other, for you | will share in madness or in Heaven together. And you will raise your |
| Tx:19.101 | other, for you will share in madness or in Heaven together. And you | will raise your eyes in faith together or not at all. |
| Tx:19.102 | your friend or enemy? Choose which he is, remembering that you | will receive of him according to your choice. He has in him the power |
| Tx:19.103 | when only he can offer it to you? For his redemption, he | will give you yours as surely as God created every living thing and |
| Tx:19.103 | as surely as God created every living thing and loves it. And he | will give it truly, for it will be both offered and received. |
| Tx:19.103 | every living thing and loves it. And he will give it truly, for it | will be both offered and received. |
| Tx:19.104 | withhold it not, for by receiving it you offer it to him. [For he | will receive of you what you received of him.] Redemption has been |
| Tx:19.105 | the holy place of resurrection to which we come again; to which we | will return until redemption is accomplished and received. Think who |
| Tx:19.107 | release from sin here in the garden of seeming agony and death. So | will we prepare together the way unto the resurrection of God's Son |
| Tx:19.108 | Together we | will disappear into the Presence beyond the veil, not to be lost, but |
| Tx:19.108 | And knowing, nothing in the plan God has established for salvation | will be left undone. This is the journey's purpose, without which is |
| Tx:19.109 | would look upon the giver of this gift, for as you look on him, so | will the gift itself appear to be. As he is seen as either the giver |
| Tx:19.109 | be. As he is seen as either the giver of guilt or of salvation, so | will his offering be seen and so received. The crucified give pain |
| Tx:19.109 | of pain. Everyone gives as he receives, but he must choose what it | will be that he receives. And he will recognize his choice by what he |
| Tx:19.109 | but he must choose what it will be that he receives. And he | will recognize his choice by what he gives and what is given him. Nor |
| Tx:20.4 | petals of the lilies you have received and given as your gift, you | will behold each other's face and recognize it. I was a stranger and |
| Tx:20.4 | took me in, not knowing who I was. Yet for your gift of lilies you | will know. In your forgiveness of this stranger, alien to you and yet |
| Tx:20.6 | and give. And every gift it offers depends on what it wants. It | will adorn its chosen home most carefully, making it ready to receive |
| Tx:20.6 | unto its chosen home or those it would attract to it. And there they | will exchange their gifts, offering and receiving what their minds |
| Tx:20.8 | yet the thorns are gone. Look you still closer at them now, and you | will see your altar is no longer what it was. |
| Tx:20.10 | would pick up from time to time and then put by. For if you do, so | will it be to you. |
| Tx:20.11 | carefully prepared for you, and it is ready to receive you now. You | will not see it with the body's eyes. Yet all you need you have. |
| Tx:20.12 | Let us lift up our eyes together, not in fear, but faith. And there | will be no fear in us, for in our vision will be no illusions—only |
| Tx:20.12 | fear, but faith. And there will be no fear in us, for in our vision | will be no illusions—only a pathway to the open door of Heaven, the |
| Tx:20.13 | Would you not have your holy brother lead you there? His innocence | will light your way, offering you its guiding light and sure |
| Tx:20.13 | way. The holiness that leads us is within us, as is our home. So | will we find what we were meant to find by Him Who leads us. |
| Tx:20.15 | through your vision and free to lead you now where he would be. He | will not leave you nor forsake the savior from his pain. And gladly |
| Tx:20.15 | will not leave you nor forsake the savior from his pain. And gladly | will you walk the way of innocence together, singing as you behold |
| Tx:20.19 | constant dangers, alone and frightened, hoping at most that death | will wait a little longer before it overtakes you and you disappear? |
| Tx:20.22 | in him who wandered carelessly into the home of truth, and who | will wander off. He came without a purpose, but he will not remain |
| Tx:20.22 | of truth, and who will wander off. He came without a purpose, but he | will not remain before the shining light the Holy Spirit offered and |
| Tx:20.26 | Such is my | will for both of you and for each of you for one another and for |
| Tx:20.26 | Self. Your gift unto each other has given me the certainty our union | will be soon. |
| Tx:20.27 | lead them to the Father. And where else would they go but where they | will to be? Each of you now will lead the other to the Father as |
| Tx:20.27 | where else would they go but where they will to be? Each of you now | will lead the other to the Father as surely as God created His Son |
| Tx:20.31 | Those who choose freedom | will experience only its results. Their power is of God, and they |
| Tx:20.31 | will experience only its results. Their power is of God, and they | will give it only to what God has given to share with them. Nothing |
| Tx:20.31 | them, for they see only this, sharing their power according to the | Will of God. And thus their freedom is established and maintained. It |
| Tx:20.33 | the part that has been given you to learn. For He Who knows the rest | will see to it without your help. But think not that He does not need |
| Tx:20.34 | all their brothers. Think you when this has been achieved that you | will rest without them? You could no more leave one of them outside |
| Tx:20.35 | accept His plan as the one function that you would fulfill, there | will be nothing else the Holy Spirit will not arrange for you without |
| Tx:20.35 | that you would fulfill, there will be nothing else the Holy Spirit | will not arrange for you without your effort. |
| Tx:20.36 | He | will go before you making straight your path and leaving in your way |
| Tx:20.36 | stones to trip on and no obstacles to bar your way. Nothing you need | will be denied you. Not one seeming difficulty but will melt away |
| Tx:20.36 | Nothing you need will be denied you. Not one seeming difficulty but | will melt away before you reach it. You need take thought for |
| Tx:20.36 | the only purpose that you would fulfill. As that was given you, so | will its fulfillment be. God's guarantee will hold against all |
| Tx:20.36 | As that was given you, so will its fulfillment be. God's guarantee | will hold against all obstacles, for it rests on certainty and not |
| Tx:20.38 | given you the gifts you give, and through your not forgetting this | will you remember Who gave the gifts to Him to give to you. |
| Tx:20.39 | you cannot even see it? Judge not what is invisible to you or you | will never see it, but wait in patience for its coming. It will be |
| Tx:20.39 | or you will never see it, but wait in patience for its coming. It | will be given you to see your brother's worth when all you want for |
| Tx:20.39 | when all you want for him is peace. And what you want for him, you | will receive. |
| Tx:20.40 | his offering? His worth has been established by his Father, and you | will recognize it as you receive his Father's gift through him. What |
| Tx:20.40 | it as you receive his Father's gift through him. What is in him | will shine so brightly in your grateful vision that you will merely |
| Tx:20.40 | is in him will shine so brightly in your grateful vision that you | will merely love him and be glad. You will not think to judge him, |
| Tx:20.40 | your grateful vision that you will merely love him and be glad. You | will not think to judge him, for who would see the face of Christ and |
| Tx:20.42 | different point in time. It never changes. All that it ever held or | will ever hold is here right now. The past takes nothing from it, and |
| Tx:20.42 | is here right now. The past takes nothing from it, and the future | will add no more. Here, then, is everything. Here is the loveliness |
| Tx:20.42 | end in perfect harmony already. Here is the perfect faith that you | will one day offer to each other already offered you. And here the |
| Tx:20.42 | other already offered you. And here the limitless forgiveness you | will give each other already given; the face of Christ you yet will |
| Tx:20.42 | you will give each other already given; the face of Christ you yet | will look upon already seen. |
| Tx:20.43 | do you. And yet, have faith that He Who sees the gift in both of you | will offer and receive it for you both. And through His vision will |
| Tx:20.43 | you will offer and receive it for you both. And through His vision | will you see it, and through His understanding recognize it and love |
| Tx:20.50 | You cannot make the body the Holy Spirit's temple, and it | will never be the seat of love. It is the home of the idolater and of |
| Tx:20.51 | Idolaters | will always be afraid of love, for nothing so severely threatens them |
| Tx:20.51 | approach. Let love draw near them and overlook the body, as it | will surely do, and they retreat in fear, feeling the seeming firm |
| Tx:20.54 | in reality. The Holy Spirit rests within it in the certainty it | will endure forever. Its firm foundation is eternally upheld by |
| Tx:20.58 | joy. But we have also said the means to meet the Holy Spirit's goal | will come from the same Source as does His purpose. Being so simple |
| Tx:20.60 | frightens you, and not the means. Remember this, for otherwise you | will make the error of believing the means are difficult. Yet how can |
| Tx:20.65 | Attempt to see him not in darkness, for your imaginings about him | will seem real there. You closed your eyes to shut him out. Such was |
| Tx:20.65 | this purpose seems to have any meaning, the means for its attainment | will be evaluated as worth the seeing, and so you will not see. |
| Tx:20.65 | for its attainment will be evaluated as worth the seeing, and so you | will not see. |
| Tx:20.67 | Vision | will come to you at first in glimpses, but they will be enough to |
| Tx:20.67 | Vision will come to you at first in glimpses, but they | will be enough to show you what is given you who see your brother |
| Tx:20.67 | closed off by valuing the “something else,” and what was never lost | will quietly return. It has been saved for you. Vision would not be |
| Tx:20.68 | holy relationship offers all this to you. As it was given you, so | will be its effects. And as its holy purpose was not made by you, the |
| Tx:20.69 | the Holy Spirit's vision and to rejoice in along with Him. For peace | will come to all who ask for it with real desire and sincerity of |
| Tx:20.70 | each one to see the body not. And as you look upon each other, you | will see an altar to your Father, holy as Heaven, glowing with |
| Tx:20.70 | and chosen to replace the holy home the Holy Spirit offers, where He | will dwell with you? |
| Tx:20.71 | little the perfect choice to call upon for strength? Judgment | will seem to make your savior weak. Yet it is you who need his |
| Tx:20.71 | is no problem, no event or situation, no perplexity that vision | will not solve. All is redeemed when looked upon with vision. For |
| Tx:20.72 | sight. The end for everything He looks upon is always sure. For it | will meet His purpose, seen in unadjusted form and suited perfectly |
| Tx:20.72 | it everywhere, in everything. Look through its eyes, and everything | will stand condemned before you. All that could save you, you will |
| Tx:20.72 | will stand condemned before you. All that could save you, you | will never see. Your holy relationship, the source of your salvation, |
| Tx:20.72 | never see. Your holy relationship, the source of your salvation, | will be deprived of meaning, and its most holy purpose bereft of |
| Tx:21.1 | so does he perceive. Therefore, seek not to change the world, but | will to change your mind about the world. Perception is a result, not |
| Tx:21.2 | Damnation is your judgment on yourself, and this you | will project upon the world. See it as damned, and all you see is |
| Tx:21.2 | tried to crucify him. If you see holiness and hope, you joined the | Will of God to set him free. There is no choice that lies between |
| Tx:21.2 | There is no choice that lies between these two decisions. And you | will see the witness to the choice you made and learn from this to |
| Tx:21.4 | lies and which way leads to darkness, which to light. Judgment | will always give you false directions, but vision shows you where to |
| Tx:21.5 | Your question is whether the means by which this course is learned | will bring to you the joy it promises. If you believed it would, the |
| Tx:21.7 | that they have. Listen and try to think if you remember what we | will speak of now. |
| Tx:21.11 | not the body. You know the ancient song and know it well. Nothing | will ever be as dear to you as is this ancient hymn [of love] the Son |
| Tx:21.12 | Creator gives praise to them as well. The blindness which they made | will not withstand the memory of this song. And they will look upon |
| Tx:21.12 | which they made will not withstand the memory of this song. And they | will look upon the vision of the Son of God, remembering who he is |
| Tx:21.13 | yes, but not ambiguous. And if you choose against it now, it | will not be because it is obscure, but rather that this little cost |
| Tx:21.16 | but that you have been mistaken, and all effects of your mistakes | will disappear. |
| Tx:21.19 | it saw was true. You did this to yourself. See only this, and you | will also see how circular the reasoning on which your “seeing” |
| Tx:21.19 | be replaced with truth. And as you look upon the change in him, it | will be given you to see it in yourself. |
| Tx:21.20 | is possible that things should happen to the Son of God without his | will and thus without the Will of his Creator, Whose Will cannot be |
| Tx:21.20 | happen to the Son of God without his will and thus without the | Will of his Creator, Whose Will cannot be separate from his own. |
| Tx:21.20 | God without his will and thus without the Will of his Creator, Whose | Will cannot be separate from his own. |
| Tx:21.21 | This is the Son of God's replacement for his | will, a mad revolt against what must forever be. This is the |
| Tx:21.22 | should be, you have set up your idols to something else. This other | will, which seems to tell you what must happen, you gave reality. And |
| Tx:21.22 | asked to do is let it in; only to stop your interference with what | will happen of itself; simply to recognize again the presence of what |
| Tx:21.24 | of a fearful world to justify its purpose. What you desire you | will see. And if its reality is false, you will uphold it by not |
| Tx:21.24 | What you desire you will see. And if its reality is false, you | will uphold it by not realizing all the adjustments you have |
| Tx:21.30 | is so cherished and protected as is a goal the mind accepts. This it | will follow, grimly or happily, but always with faith and with the |
| Tx:21.31 | he believes he is in chains. And when he is released from them, it | will be simply because he no longer believes in them, withdrawing |
| Tx:21.32 | And when you have accepted them completely instead of yours, you | will have need of them no longer. For faith and vision and belief are |
| Tx:21.34 | that the vision of a holy relationship is all you want to see. Then | will you give your faith to holiness, desiring and believing in it |
| Tx:21.37 | nothing. He makes no bargains. And if you seek to limit Him, you | will hate Him because you are afraid. The gift that He has given you |
| Tx:21.41 | The Holy Spirit | will never teach you that you are sinful. Errors He will correct, but |
| Tx:21.41 | The Holy Spirit will never teach you that you are sinful. Errors He | will correct, but this makes no one fearful. You are indeed afraid to |
| Tx:21.42 | the ego tells you not to look inward, for if you do, your eyes | will light on sin, and God will strike you blind. This you believe, |
| Tx:21.42 | to look inward, for if you do, your eyes will light on sin, and God | will strike you blind. This you believe, and so you do not look. Yet |
| Tx:21.50 | ego says and see what it directs you see, and it is sure that you | will see yourself as tiny, vulnerable, and afraid. You will |
| Tx:21.50 | sure that you will see yourself as tiny, vulnerable, and afraid. You | will experience depression, a sense of worthlessness, and feelings of |
| Tx:21.50 | of worthlessness, and feelings of impermanence and unreality. You | will believe that you are helpless prey to forces far beyond your own |
| Tx:21.50 | far beyond your own control and far more powerful than you. And you | will think the world you made directs your destiny. For this will be |
| Tx:21.50 | And you will think the world you made directs your destiny. For this | will be your faith. But never believe because it is your faith it |
| Tx:21.51 | awaiting but your choice. And if you place your faith in them, you | will perceive another Self in you. This other Self sees miracles as |
| Tx:21.52 | may arise in it, but if the basic question stems from reason, it | will not ask it. Like all that stems from reason, the basic question |
| Tx:21.53 | plan for your salvation could not have been established without your | will and your consent. It must have been accepted by the Son of God, |
| Tx:21.53 | him he must receive. For God wills not apart from him, nor does the | Will of God wait upon time to be accomplished. Therefore, what joined |
| Tx:21.53 | of God wait upon time to be accomplished. Therefore, what joined the | Will of God must be in you now, being eternal. You must have set |
| Tx:21.53 | not the ego's “reasoning.” Its alien nature to the ego is proof you | will not find the answer there. Yet if it must be so, it must exist. |
| Tx:21.54 | He has no Thoughts except the Self-extending, and in this your | will must be included. Thus, there must be a part of you that knows |
| Tx:21.54 | must be included. Thus, there must be a part of you that knows His | Will and shares it. It is not meaningful to ask if what must be is |
| Tx:21.55 | knowledge threatens dissociation as much as all of it. And all of it | will come with any part. Here is the part you can accept. What reason |
| Tx:21.57 | The part of mind where reason lies was dedicated by your | will in union with your Father's to the undoing of insanity. Here was |
| Tx:21.58 | belief have shifted, and you have asked the question which the ego | will never ask. Does not your reason tell you now the question must |
| Tx:21.59 | correction. It does not value them, but their correction. Reason | will also tell you when you think you sin, you call for help. Yet if |
| Tx:21.59 | also tell you when you think you sin, you call for help. Yet if you | will not accept the help you call for, you will not believe that it |
| Tx:21.59 | call for help. Yet if you will not accept the help you call for, you | will not believe that it is yours to give. And so you will not give |
| Tx:21.59 | call for, you will not believe that it is yours to give. And so you | will not give it, thus maintaining the belief. For uncorrected error |
| Tx:21.59 | and to your brother. And if he shares this same belief, you both | will think that you are damned. This you could spare him and |
| Tx:21.62 | takes the place of madness quietly, replacing madness if it be the | will of the insane to listen to it. But the insane know not their |
| Tx:21.62 | will of the insane to listen to it. But the insane know not their | will. For they believe they see the body and let their madness tell |
| Tx:21.62 | of this. And if you would defend the body against your reason, you | will not understand the body or yourself. |
| Tx:21.64 | and without a hope of safe return. You teach him this, and you | will learn of him exactly what you taught. For you can teach him only |
| Tx:21.64 | unless it disagrees with what you hold more dear than truth? Reason | will tell you that this fact is your release. Neither your brother |
| Tx:21.65 | steadily away from madness toward the goal of truth. And here you | will lay down the burden of denying truth. This is the burden that is |
| Tx:21.68 | as one. And as his gratitude goes out to you who blessed him, reason | will tell you that it cannot be you stand apart from blessing. The |
| Tx:21.71 | alone and not communicating, fearful the power of the Son of God | will strike them dead and raising up their helplessness against him. |
| Tx:21.73 | what is not there. Yes, it can dream it found an enemy, but this | will shift even as it attacks, so that it runs at once to find |
| Tx:21.74 | should he try. For if he focuses on what he cannot understand, he | will but emphasize his helplessness and let sin tell him that his |
| Tx:21.78 | it must be answered and is answered in the other three. And then it | will be clear to you that, as you look on the effects of sin in any |
| Tx:21.80 | without an enemy in which you are not helpless, the means to see it | will be given you. |
| Tx:21.81 | Why is the final question so important? Reason | will tell you why. It is the same as are the other three except in |
| Tx:21.84 | proof that he is wrong who sees himself as helpless. Desire what you | will, and you will look on it and think it real. No thought but has |
| Tx:21.84 | is wrong who sees himself as helpless. Desire what you will, and you | will look on it and think it real. No thought but has the power to |
| Tx:21.88 | Reason | will tell you that you cannot ask for happiness inconstantly. For if |
| Tx:21.88 | it. He may be wrong in what he asks, where, and of what. Yet he | will ask because desire is a request, an asking for, and made by one |
| Tx:21.88 | desire is a request, an asking for, and made by one whom God Himself | will never fail to answer. God has already given him all that he |
| Tx:21.89 | You who complete God's | Will and are His happiness, whose will is powerful as His, a power |
| Tx:21.89 | You who complete God's Will and are His happiness, whose | will is powerful as His, a power that is not lost in your illusions, |
| Tx:21.90 | future now, for time is powerless because of your desire for what | will never change. For you have asked that nothing stand between the |
| Tx:22.5 | hate the one He loves, then you and your Creator have a different | will. Yet if you are his will, what you must then believe is that you |
| Tx:22.5 | then you and your Creator have a different will. Yet if you are his | will, what you must then believe is that you are not yourself. You |
| Tx:22.8 | What could be secret from God's | Will? Yet you believe that you have secrets. What could your secrets |
| Tx:22.8 | that you have secrets. What could your secrets be except another | will that is your own, apart from His? Reason would tell you that |
| Tx:22.9 | was given you, along with everything that you can understand. You | will perceive no difficulty in understanding what this vision tells |
| Tx:22.9 | only what he thinks he is. And what your sight would show you, you | will understand because it is the truth. Only your vision can convey |
| Tx:22.9 | be interpreted to you. What needs interpretation must be alien. Nor | will it ever be made understandable by an interpreter you cannot |
| Tx:22.10 | he sees are stable yet. But what he hears and does not understand | will be his native tongue, through which he will communicate with |
| Tx:22.10 | and does not understand will be his native tongue, through which he | will communicate with those around him, and they with him. And the |
| Tx:22.10 | and they with him. And the strange, shifting ones he sees about him | will become to him his comforters, and he will recognize his home and |
| Tx:22.10 | ones he sees about him will become to him his comforters, and he | will recognize his home and see them there with him. |
| Tx:22.11 | rebirth. Yet in this infant is your vision returned to you, and he | will speak the language both of you can understand. He is not |
| Tx:22.12 | Think what is given you, my holy brothers. This child | will teach you what you do not understand and make it plain. For his |
| Tx:22.12 | will teach you what you do not understand and make it plain. For his | will be no alien tongue. He will need no interpreter to you, for it |
| Tx:22.12 | understand and make it plain. For his will be no alien tongue. He | will need no interpreter to you, for it was you who taught him what |
| Tx:22.13 | could not do through bodies. What, then, has joined them? Reason | will tell you that they must have seen each other through a vision |
| Tx:22.15 | correct in looking on each other as His chosen home, for here you | will with Him and with His Father. This is your Father's Will for |
| Tx:22.15 | here you will with Him and with His Father. This is your Father's | Will for you, and yours with His. And who is drawn to Christ is drawn |
| Tx:22.17 | difference as joy. Yet to perceive a difference where none exists | will surely fail to make a difference. |
| Tx:22.19 | Reason | will tell you that the only way to escape from misery is to recognize |
| Tx:22.20 | Both reason and the ego | will tell you this, but what they make of it is not the same. The ego |
| Tx:22.20 | tell you this, but what they make of it is not the same. The ego | will assure you now that it is impossible for you to see no guilt in |
| Tx:22.20 | on this another way, for reason sees the source of an idea as what | will make it true or false. This must be so if the idea is like its |
| Tx:22.21 | purpose be accomplished, they can be used. And through their use | will you gain faith in them. Yet to the ego this must be impossible, |
| Tx:22.22 | Forsake not now each other. For you who are the same | will not decide alone nor differently. Either you give each other |
| Tx:22.22 | or his judge, offering him sanctuary or condemnation. This course | will be believed entirely or not at all. For it is wholly true or |
| Tx:22.22 | true or wholly false and cannot be but partially believed. And you | will either escape from misery entirely or not at all. Reason will |
| Tx:22.22 | you will either escape from misery entirely or not at all. Reason | will tell you that there is no middle ground where you can pause |
| Tx:22.23 | And vision cannot damn, but only bless. Whose function is to save | will save. How he will do it is beyond your understanding, but when |
| Tx:22.23 | damn, but only bless. Whose function is to save will save. How he | will do it is beyond your understanding, but when must be your |
| Tx:22.24 | leave his Father's Mind, make himself different, and oppose His | Will, would it be possible that the self he made and all it made |
| Tx:22.25 | you unless you still would be apart from your Creator and with a | will opposed to His. For only if you would believe His Son could be |
| Tx:22.27 | on earth. How great the power that lies in it. Time waits upon its | will, and earth will be as it would have it be. Here is no separate |
| Tx:22.27 | great the power that lies in it. Time waits upon its will, and earth | will be as it would have it be. Here is no separate will nor the |
| Tx:22.27 | will, and earth will be as it would have it be. Here is no separate | will nor the desire that anything be separate. Its will has no |
| Tx:22.27 | is no separate will nor the desire that anything be separate. Its | will has no exceptions, and what it wills is true. Every illusion |
| Tx:22.30 | belief you cannot learn this course. Share this belief, and reason | will be unable to see your errors and make way for their correction. |
| Tx:22.33 | Reason | will tell you that the form of error is not what makes it a mistake. |
| Tx:22.33 | by form, having been made to guarantee that nothing else but form | will be perceived. |
| Tx:22.34 | These eyes, made not to see, | will never see. For the idea they represent left not its maker, and |
| Tx:22.35 | not true. It could not be reality, because it can be changed. Reason | will tell you that, if form is not reality, it must be an illusion |
| Tx:22.37 | newly born, must value holiness above all else. Unholy values | will produce confusion, and in awareness. In an unholy relationship, |
| Tx:22.37 | sin. He sees within the other what impels him to sin against his | will. And thus he lays his sins upon the other and is attracted to |
| Tx:22.38 | straight ahead, the way you went before you reached the branch, you | will go nowhere. The whole purpose of coming this far was to decide |
| Tx:22.38 | The whole purpose of coming this far was to decide which branch you | will take now. The way you came no longer matters. It can no longer |
| Tx:22.39 | of Heaven to uphold it cannot be undone. Your way is decided. There | will be nothing you will not be told if you acknowledge this. |
| Tx:22.39 | it cannot be undone. Your way is decided. There will be nothing you | will not be told if you acknowledge this. |
| Tx:22.40 | together, for it is but a veil that stands between you. Either alone | will see it as a solid block, nor realize how thin the drapery that |
| Tx:22.40 | and peace has reached you even here before the veil. Think what | will happen after! The love of Christ will light your faces and shine |
| Tx:22.40 | before the veil. Think what will happen after! The love of Christ | will light your faces and shine from them into a darkened world that |
| Tx:22.40 | a darkened world that needs the light. And from this holy place He | will return with you, not leaving it nor you. You will become His |
| Tx:22.40 | this holy place He will return with you, not leaving it nor you. You | will become His messengers, returning Him unto Himself. |
| Tx:22.41 | Think of the loveliness that you | will see who walk with Him! And think how beautiful will each of you |
| Tx:22.41 | that you will see who walk with Him! And think how beautiful | will each of you look to the other! How happy you will be to be |
| Tx:22.41 | how beautiful will each of you look to the other! How happy you | will be to be together after such a long and lonely journey where you |
| Tx:22.41 | where you walked alone. The gates of Heaven, open now for you, | will you now open to the sorrowful. And none who looks upon the |
| Tx:22.41 | open to the sorrowful. And none who looks upon the Christ in you but | will rejoice. How beautiful the sight you saw beyond the veil which |
| Tx:22.41 | rejoice. How beautiful the sight you saw beyond the veil which you | will bring to light the tired eyes of those as weary now as once you |
| Tx:22.41 | the tired eyes of those as weary now as once you were. How thankful | will they be to see you come among them, offering Christ's |
| Tx:22.42 | Every mistake you make the other | will gently have corrected for you, for in his sight your loveliness |
| Tx:22.42 | is his salvation which he would protect from harm. And each | will be the other's strong protector from everything that seems to |
| Tx:22.44 | out your joined hands and touch this heavy-seeming block, and you | will learn how easily your fingers slip through its nothingness. It |
| Tx:22.45 | that needs defense you do not want, for anything that needs defense | will weaken you. |
| Tx:22.48 | mouse that would attack the universe. How likely is it that it | will succeed? Can it be difficult to disregard its feeble squeaks |
| Tx:22.48 | God created? You are not joined together by this mouse but by the | Will of God. And can a mouse betray whom God has joined? |
| Tx:22.51 | No one but yearns for freedom and tries to find it. Yet he | will seek for it where he believes it is and can be found. He will |
| Tx:22.51 | Yet he will seek for it where he believes it is and can be found. He | will believe it possible of mind or body, and he will make the other |
| Tx:22.51 | can be found. He will believe it possible of mind or body, and he | will make the other serve his choice as means to find it. |
| Tx:22.53 | as is the shift from hate to gratitude before forgiving eyes. You | will be sanctified by one another, using your bodies only to serve |
| Tx:22.53 | by one another, using your bodies only to serve the sinless. And it | will be impossible for you to hate what serves what you would heal. |
| Tx:22.54 | Nothing entrusted to it can be misused, and nothing given it but | will be used. This holy relationship has the power to heal all pain, |
| Tx:22.54 | its form. Neither of you alone can serve at all. Only in your joint | will does healing lie. For here your healing is and here will you |
| Tx:22.54 | your joint will does healing lie. For here your healing is and here | will you accept Atonement. And in your healing is the Sonship healed |
| Tx:22.56 | come to you. The light you bring you do not recognize, and yet you | will remember. Who can deny himself the vision that he brings to |
| Tx:22.57 | you from seeing past it? And what illusion could there be you | will not recognize as a mistake—a shadow through which you walk |
| Tx:22.57 | let nothing interfere with those whose wills are His[. And they | will recognize their wills are His, because they serve His Will] and |
| Tx:22.58 | You | will see your value through each other's eyes, and each one is |
| Tx:22.58 | other, to whom He offers them, and where and when is up to Him. He | will bestow them where they are received and welcomed. He will use |
| Tx:22.58 | to Him. He will bestow them where they are received and welcomed. He | will use every one of them for peace. Nor will one little smile or |
| Tx:22.58 | received and welcomed. He will use every one of them for peace. Nor | will one little smile or willingness to overlook the tiniest mistake |
| Tx:22.59 | cannot use, but offer Him the tiny gifts He can extend forever. He | will take each one and make of it a potent force for peace. He will |
| Tx:22.59 | He will take each one and make of it a potent force for peace. He | will withhold no blessing from it nor limit it in any way. He will |
| Tx:22.59 | He will withhold no blessing from it nor limit it in any way. He | will join to it all the power that God has given Him to make each |
| Tx:22.60 | world. And it is only arrogance that would deny the power of your | will. Think you the Will of God is powerless? Is this humility? You |
| Tx:22.60 | only arrogance that would deny the power of your will. Think you the | Will of God is powerless? Is this humility? You do not see what this |
| Tx:22.60 | God in place, unmovable and solid as a rock. While this remains, so | will it seem to be. |
| Tx:22.62 | recognized this oneness, you would know His power is yours. But you | will not remember this while you believe attack of any kind means |
| Tx:22.64 | function of your holy relationship. For what one thinks the other | will experience with him. What can this mean except your minds are |
| Tx:22.64 | burden on you. For when you have accepted it with gladness, you | will realize that your relationship is a reflection of the union of |
| Tx:23.1 | is therefore the belief in weakness, and what is weak is not the | Will of God. Being opposed to it, it is its “enemy.” And God is |
| Tx:23.1 | opposed to it, it is its “enemy.” And God is feared as an opposing | will. |
| Tx:23.2 | How strange indeed becomes this war against yourself! You | will believe that everything you use for sin can hurt you and become |
| Tx:23.2 | you use for sin can hurt you and become your enemy. And you | will fight against it and try to weaken it because of this; and you |
| Tx:23.2 | will fight against it and try to weaken it because of this; and you | will think that you succeeded and attack again. It is as certain you |
| Tx:23.2 | will think that you succeeded and attack again. It is as certain you | will fear what you attack as it is sure that you will love what you |
| Tx:23.2 | is as certain you will fear what you attack as it is sure that you | will love what you perceive as sinless. He walks in peace who travels |
| Tx:23.2 | him. For love walks with him there, protecting him from fear. And he | will see only the sinless, who can not attack. |
| Tx:23.5 | it and perceive the light of which he is a part. Your innocence | will light the way to his, and so is yours protected and kept in your |
| Tx:23.6 | of you. Look on it lovingly, and see the light of Heaven in it. So | will you come to understand all that is given you. In kind |
| Tx:23.6 | you come to understand all that is given you. In kind forgiveness | will the world sparkle and shine and everything you once thought |
| Tx:23.6 | world sparkle and shine and everything you once thought sinful now | will be reinterpreted as part of Heaven. How beautiful it is to walk |
| Tx:23.7 | is its fixed belief it has an enemy that it must overcome and | will succeed. |
| Tx:23.8 | And God thinks otherwise. This is no war—only the mad belief the | Will of God can be attacked and overthrown. You may identify with |
| Tx:23.8 | and overthrown. You may identify with this belief, but never | will it be more than madness. And fear will reign in madness and will |
| Tx:23.8 | with this belief, but never will it be more than madness. And fear | will reign in madness and will seem to have replaced love there. This |
| Tx:23.8 | will it be more than madness. And fear will reign in madness and | will seem to have replaced love there. This is the conflict's |

| Tx:23.15 | one to be crowned as real, the other vanquished and despised. Here | will the Father never be remembered. Yet no illusion can invade His |
| Tx:23.26 | thus becomes a myth, and vengeance, not forgiveness, is the | Will of God. From where all this begins, there is no sight of help |
| Tx:23.26 | seems to be siding with it to overcome His Son. Think not the ego | will enable you to find escape from what it wants. That is the |
| Tx:23.30 | It holds there is a substitute for love. This is the “magic” that | will cure all of your pain; the missing factor in your madness that |
| Tx:23.31 | Never is your possession made complete. And never | will your brother cease his attack on you for what you stole. Nor |
| Tx:23.31 | will your brother cease his attack on you for what you stole. Nor | will God end His vengeance upon both, for in His madness He must have |

| Tx:23.46 | and the fear that haunts the place of death is not apparent, that it | will not return. There is no safety in a battleground. You can look |
| Tx:23.46 | within it, you can find no safety. Not one tree left standing still | will shelter you. Not one illusion of protection stands against the |
| Tx:23.48 | must they be the same and indistinguishable from one another. So | will they be to those who see God's Son a body. For it is not the |
| Tx:23.50 | This is your part—to realize that murder in any form is not your | will. The overlooking of the battleground is now your purpose. |
| Tx:23.51 | Be lifted up and from a higher place look down upon it. From there | will your perspective be quite different. Here in the midst of it, it |
| Tx:23.52 | instead of murder. And God Himself and all the lights of Heaven | will gently lean to you and hold you up. For you have chosen to |

| Tx:24.1 | already. And can it be He cannot enter where He wills to be? Peace | will be yours because it is His Will. Can you believe a shadow can |
| Tx:24.1 | enter where He wills to be? Peace will be yours because it is His | Will. Can you believe a shadow can hold back the Will that holds the |
| Tx:24.1 | because it is His Will. Can you believe a shadow can hold back the | Will that holds the universe secure? God does not wait upon illusions |
| Tx:24.1 | seems to drift between them has the power to defeat what is Their | will? |
| Tx:24.2 | value that you hold. Not one can be kept hidden and obscure but it | will jeopardize your learning. No belief is neutral. Every one has |
| Tx:24.4 | Beliefs | will never openly attack each other, because conflicting outcomes are |
| Tx:24.8 | the goal is triumph? And what decision can be made for this that | will not hurt you? Your brother is your friend because his Father |
| Tx:24.10 | in specialness. For each demands the other bow to it against his | will. And God Himself must honor it or suffer vengeance. Every twinge |
| Tx:24.11 | against the truth. For what is specialness but an attack upon the | Will of God? You love your brother not while it is this you would |
| Tx:24.13 | released from limits? You have a function in salvation. Its pursuit | will bring you joy. But the pursuit of specialness must bring you |

| Tx:24.13 | to the Will of God. To value specialness is to esteem an alien | will to which illusions of yourself are dearer than the truth. |
| Tx:24.16 | You can defend your specialness, but never | will you hear the Voice for God beside it. They speak a different |
| Tx:24.17 | specialness and all the sins he held in its defense against himself | will vanish as his mind accepts the truth about himself as it returns |
| Tx:24.17 | returns to take their place. This is the only “cost” of truth: you | will no longer see what never was, nor hear what makes no sound. Is |
| Tx:24.18 | between him and the function of salvation given him for you. Nor | will you change his function, any more than you can change the truth |
| Tx:24.19 | Think of the loveliness that you | will see within yourself when you have looked on him as on a friend. |
| Tx:24.20 | falter now. Just one step more and every vestige of the fear of God | will melt away in love. Your brother's specialness and yours are |
| Tx:24.25 | of all your misery and the awareness that your plan has failed and | will forever fail to bring you peace and joy of any kind? Through |
| Tx:24.27 | it stands, strongly defended with all your puny might against the | Will of God. And thus it stands against yourself; your enemy, not |
| Tx:24.29 | Nothing is safe from its attack, and it is safe from nothing. It | will forever more be unforgiving, for that is what it is—a secret |
| Tx:24.29 | for that is what it is—a secret vow that what God wants for you | will never be and that you will oppose His Will forever. Nor is it |
| Tx:24.29 | a secret vow that what God wants for you will never be and that you | will oppose His Will forever. Nor is it possible the two can ever be |
| Tx:24.29 | what God wants for you will never be and that you will oppose His | Will forever. Nor is it possible the two can ever be the same while |
| Tx:24.30 | for your forgiveness. He would have no separation, like an alien | will, rise between what He wills for you and what you will. They are |
| Tx:24.30 | like an alien will, rise between what He wills for you and what you | will. They are the same, for neither one wills specialness. How could |
| Tx:24.30 | They are the same, for neither one wills specialness. How could they | will the death of love itself? Yet they are powerless to make attack |
| Tx:24.30 | not even death. And God Himself, Who knows that death is not your | will, must say, “Thy will be done” because you think it is. |
| Tx:24.30 | God Himself, Who knows that death is not your will, must say, “Thy | will be done” because you think it is. |
| Tx:24.31 | your brother from the depths of hell, you have forgiven Him Whose | Will it is you rest forever in the arms of peace in perfect safety |
| Tx:24.33 | The slaves of specialness | will yet be free. Such is the Will of God and of His Son. Would God |
| Tx:24.33 | The slaves of specialness will yet be free. Such is the | Will of God and of His Son. Would God condemn Himself to hell and to |
| Tx:24.33 | Son. Would God condemn Himself to hell and to damnation? And do you | will that this be done unto your savior? God calls to you from him to |
| Tx:24.33 | this be done unto your savior? God calls to you from him to join His | Will to save you both from hell. Look on the print of nails upon his |
| Tx:24.33 | His Son and on Himself. Deny them not. They ask of you but that your | will be done. They seek your love that you may love yourself. Love |
| Tx:24.33 | nails are on your hands as well. Forgive your Father. It was not His | Will that you be crucified. |
| Tx:24.37 | in the sense that all illusions are “threatened” by the truth. They | will not stand before it. Yet what comfort has ever been in them that |
| Tx:24.40 | and lack faith that it is so. Wishing makes real, as surely as does | will create. The power of a wish upholds illusions as strongly as |
| Tx:24.42 | beside him, showing him what can be seen and heard and where he | will see nothing and there is no sound to hear. |
| Tx:24.43 | Yet let your specialness direct his way, and you | will follow. And both will walk in danger, each intent, in the dark |
| Tx:24.43 | let your specialness direct his way, and you will follow. And both | will walk in danger, each intent, in the dark forest of the |
| Tx:24.47 | is His Own. He Who willed not to be without His Son could never | will that you be brotherless. And would He give a brother unto you |
| Tx:24.48 | Christ has no doubt, and from His certainty His quiet comes. He | will exchange His certainty for all your doubts if you agree that He |
| Tx:24.49 | the healing of your sense of sacrifice and fear that what you have | will scatter with the wind and turn to dust. In him is your assurance |
| Tx:24.49 | While he is what he is, you can be sure that God is knowable and | will be known to you. For He could never leave His own creation. And |
| Tx:24.50 | no reality. For what God wills is whole and part of Him because His | Will is One. Nothing alive that is not part of Him, and nothing is |
| Tx:24.51 | And no thought within His Mind is absent from your own. It is His | Will you share His love for you and look upon yourself as lovingly as |
| Tx:24.52 | to be accomplished by the world, by time, and all appearances, you | will not know the Father nor yourself. For you will use the world for |
| Tx:24.52 | all appearances, you will not know the Father nor yourself. For you | will use the world for what is not its purpose and will not escape |
| Tx:24.52 | yourself. For you will use the world for what is not its purpose and | will not escape its laws of violence and death. Yet it is given you |
| Tx:24.53 | obscure the truth in him, for not one law of death you bind him to | will you escape. And not one sin you see in him but keeps you both in |
| Tx:24.53 | And not one sin you see in him but keeps you both in hell. Yet | will his perfect sinlessness release you both, for holiness is quite |
| Tx:24.55 | you want to see, and which you choose is yours to look upon. Yet | will you choose in countless situations and through time which seems |
| Tx:24.56 | begun and needs no end. What never was is not a part of you. Yet you | will think it is until you realize that it is not a part of him who |
| Tx:24.57 | the other choice can offer you. Futility of function not fulfilled | will haunt you while your brother lies asleep, till what has been |
| Tx:24.58 | and give you happiness. And never doubt but that your specialness | will disappear before the Will of God, Who loves each part of Him |
| Tx:24.58 | And never doubt but that your specialness will disappear before the | Will of God, Who loves each part of Him with equal love [and care]. |
| Tx:24.66 | shares in its holiness and rests in light as safely as itself. Nor | will that light go out when it is gone. Its holy purpose gave it |
| Tx:24.69 | Its scope does not exceed your own, except to say that what is yours | will come to you when you are ready. Here are the means and purpose |
| Tx:24.70 | Look at yourself, and you | will see a body. Look at this body in a different light, and it looks |
| Tx:24.72 | with a different purpose. The Son of God retains His Father's | Will. The son of man perceives an alien will and wishes it were so. |
| Tx:24.72 | of God retains His Father's Will. The son of man perceives an alien | will and wishes it were so. And thus does his perception serve his |
| Tx:24.72 | choice and use perception for a different purpose. And what you see | will serve that purpose well and prove its own reality to you. |
| Tx:25.1 | come to Him and see Him where they thought their bodies were. Then | will their bodies melt away that they may frame His holiness in them. |
| Tx:25.4 | you to do, since it is He Who does it. And in the doing of it | will you learn the body merely seems to be the means to do it. For |
| Tx:25.5 | you, you are manifest in what you see. Behold the body, and you | will believe that you are there. And every body that you look upon |
| Tx:25.5 | And you must see your brother as yourself. Framed in his body, you | will see your sinfulness wherein you stand condemned. Set in his |
| Tx:25.6 | world you want to live in and the state in which you think your mind | will be content and satisfied. It chooses where you think your safety |
| Tx:25.8 | your understanding in the part of you that shares His Father's | Will. The Holy Spirit links the other part, the tiny mad desire to be |
| Tx:25.9 | purpose still is one with both the Father and the Son, He knows the | Will of God and what you really will. But this is understood by mind |
| Tx:25.9 | the Father and the Son, He knows the Will of God and what you really | will. But this is understood by mind perceived as one, aware that it |
| Tx:25.12 | fancies, always does despair result. And there is no exception, nor | will there ever be. The only value that the past can hold is that you |
| Tx:25.12 | it gave you no rewards that you would want to keep. For only thus | will you be willing to relinquish it and have it gone forever. |
| Tx:25.14 | to uphold pursuit of what has always failed on grounds that it | will suddenly succeed and bring what it has never brought before? |
| Tx:25.17 | instead of it. Yet God has set His masterpiece within a frame that | will endure forever when yours has crumbled into dust. But think you |
| Tx:25.18 | Accept God's frame instead of yours, and you | will see the masterpiece. Look at its loveliness, and understand the |
| Tx:25.19 | understand your brother as his Father's Mind shows him to you. He | will step forth from darkness as you look on him, and you will see |
| Tx:25.19 | to you. He will step forth from darkness as you look on him, and you | will see the dark no more. The darkness touched him not, nor you who |
| Tx:25.19 | but pictures yours. His gentleness becomes your strength, and both | will gladly look within and see the holiness that must be there |
| Tx:25.20 | is yours completed. Not one ray of darkness can be seen by those who | will to make their Father's happiness complete and theirs along with |
| Tx:25.20 | is freely offered to everyone who shares His purpose. It is not His | Will to be alone. And neither is it yours. |
| Tx:25.21 | the Father and the Son alike. Nothing has power over you except His | Will and yours, who but extend His Will. It was for this you were |
| Tx:25.21 | has power over you except His Will and yours, who but extend His | Will. It was for this you were created and your brother with you and |
| Tx:25.22 | You are the same, as God Himself is one and not divided in His | Will. And you must have one purpose, since He gave the same to both |
| Tx:25.22 | must have one purpose, since He gave the same to both of you. His | Will is brought together as you join in will that you be made |
| Tx:25.22 | the same to both of you. His Will is brought together as you join in | will that you be made complete by offering completion to your |
| Tx:25.23 | To the extent to which you value guilt, to that extent | will you perceive a world in which attack is justified. To the extent |
| Tx:25.23 | to which you recognize that guilt is meaningless, to that extent | will you perceive attack cannot be justified. This is in strict |
| Tx:25.27 | The lamps of Heaven are not for it to choose to see them where it | will. If it elects to see them elsewhere from their home, as if they |
| Tx:25.28 | And when he chooses to avail himself of what is given him, then | will he see each situation that he thought before was means to |
| Tx:25.28 | to justify his anger turned to an event which justifies his love. He | will hear plainly that the calls to war he heard before are really |
| Tx:25.28 | that the calls to war he heard before are really calls to peace. He | will perceive that where he gave attack is but another altar where he |
| Tx:25.28 | with equal ease and far more happiness bestow forgiveness. And he | will reinterpret all temptation as just another chance to bring him |
| Tx:25.31 | that he be saved or damned? Forgetting not that what he is to you | will make this choice your future? For you make it now, the instant |
| Tx:25.31 | that in this choice the purpose of the world you see is chosen and | will be justified. |
| Tx:25.32 | is their purpose to behold it and rejoice. Everyone seeks for what | will bring him joy as he defines it. It is not the aim as such that |
| Tx:25.32 | aim is changed. And then the means are chosen once again, as what | will bring rejoicing is defined another way and sought for |
| Tx:25.33 | Perception's basic law could thus be said, “You | will rejoice at what you see because you see it to rejoice.” And |
| Tx:25.33 | you see it to rejoice.” And while you think that suffering and sin | will bring you joy, so long will they be there for you to see. |
| Tx:25.33 | while you think that suffering and sin will bring you joy, so long | will they be there for you to see. Nothing is harmful or beneficent |
| Tx:25.34 | From you can come their rest. From you can rise a world they | will rejoice to look upon and where their hearts are glad. In you |
| Tx:25.34 | guilt and merciless revenge, and every wish to hurt and kill and die | will disappear before the sun you bring. |
| Tx:25.35 | what it would do for you. Your “evil” thoughts that haunt you now | will seem increasingly remote and far away from you. And they go |
| Tx:25.35 | away for recognition and are gone forever. And in the sunlight you | will stand in quiet, in innocence, and wholly unafraid. And from you |
| Tx:25.35 | will stand in quiet, in innocence, and wholly unafraid. And from you | will the rest you found extend, so that your peace can never fall |
| Tx:25.36 | Every leaf that falls is given life in you. Each bird that ever sang | will sing again in you. And every flower that ever bloomed has saved |
| Tx:25.36 | its perfume and its loveliness for you. What aim can supersede the | Will of God and of His Son that Heaven be restored to him for whom it |
| Tx:25.40 | neither have it. So must it remain useless to both. Together, it | will give to each an equal strength to save the other and save |
| Tx:25.41 | It is no sacrifice that he be saved, for by his freedom | will you gain your own. To let his function be fulfilled is but the |
| Tx:25.41 | Heaven or toward hell, but not alone. How beautiful his sinlessness | will be when you perceive it! And how great will be your joy, when he |
| Tx:25.41 | his sinlessness will be when you perceive it! And how great | will be your joy, when he is free to offer you the gift of sight God |
| Tx:25.41 | along with him. And as you see him, so do you define the function he | will have for you until you see him differently and let him be what |
| Tx:25.42 | hell. But in the love he shows himself is God made free to let His | Will be done. In each of you, you see the picture of your own belief |
| Tx:25.42 | In each of you, you see the picture of your own belief in what the | Will of God must be for you. In your forgiveness will you understand |
| Tx:25.42 | belief in what the Will of God must be for you. In your forgiveness | will you understand His love for you; through your attack believe He |
| Tx:25.42 | But forget not this—the role you give to him is given you, and you | will walk the way you pointed out to him because it is your judgment |
| Tx:25.45 | Will you behold your brother? God is glad to have you look on him. He | |
| Tx:25.45 | your brother? God is glad to have you look on him. He does not | will your savior be unrecognized by you. Nor does He will that he |
| Tx:25.45 | He does not will your savior be unrecognized by you. Nor does He | will that he remain without the function that He gave to him. Let him |
| Tx:25.49 | and let him understand that he is safe, as he has always been and | will remain in time and in eternity alike. This is the function given |
| Tx:25.50 | The world is safe from love to everyone who thinks sin possible. Nor | will it change. Yet is it possible what God created not should share |
| Tx:25.51 | be the “sinner's” wish for death is just as strong as is God's | Will for life. Nor can the basis of a world He did not make be firm |
| Tx:25.51 | and Heaven are the same? And is it possible that what He did not | will cannot be changed? What is immutable besides His Will? And what |
| Tx:25.51 | He did not will cannot be changed? What is immutable besides His | Will? And what can share Its attributes except Itself? What wish can |
| Tx:25.51 | share Its attributes except Itself? What wish can rise against His | Will and be immutable? If you could realize nothing is changeless but |
| Tx:25.51 | and be immutable? If you could realize nothing is changeless but the | Will of God, this course would not be difficult for you. For it is |
| Tx:25.56 | of God cannot be bound by time nor place nor anything God did not | will. Yet if His Will is seen as madness, then the form of sanity |
| Tx:25.56 | be bound by time nor place nor anything God did not will. Yet if His | Will is seen as madness, then the form of sanity which makes it most |
| Tx:25.57 | this One is given the choice of form most suitable to him; one which | will not attack the world he sees, but enter into it in quietness and |
| Tx:25.59 | you this in the alternative He chose especially for you. It is God's | Will that you remember this and so emerge from deepest mourning into |
| Tx:25.62 | but life is not maintained at any cost. No one can suffer for the | Will of God to be fulfilled. Salvation is His Will because you share |
| Tx:25.62 | one can suffer for the Will of God to be fulfilled. Salvation is His | Will because you share it. Not for you alone but for the Self which |
| Tx:25.63 | For if He did, you would believe He wrested it from you against your | will. And so you would not learn it is your will to be without it. |
| Tx:25.63 | it from you against your will. And so you would not learn it is your | will to be without it. You need not give it to Him wholly willingly, |
| Tx:25.74 | justice asks no more. Of each one does the Holy Spirit ask if he | will be that one, so justice may return to love and there be |
| Tx:25.75 | He may smile on you whose sinlessness He shares. His understanding | will be yours. And so the Holy Spirit's special function has been |
| Tx:25.77 | of God. Let love decide and never fear that you in your unfairness | will deprive yourself of what God's justice has allotted you. |
| Tx:25.78 | that the answer must entail. For if you answer “yes,” it means you | will forgo all values of this world in favor of the peace of Heaven. |
| Tx:25.78 | one sin would you retain. And not one doubt that this is possible | will you hold dear that sin be kept in place. You mean that truth has |
| Tx:25.80 | Be certain any answer to a problem the Holy Spirit solves | will always be one in which no one loses. And this must be true |
| Tx:25.82 | been solved because it has been met with justice. Until it has, it | will recur because it has not yet been solved. The principle that |
| Tx:25.85 | that all your brothers have an equal right to miracles with you, you | will not claim your right to them because you were unjust to one with |
| Tx:25.85 | you were unjust to one with equal rights. Seek to deny, and you | will feel denied. Seek to deprive, and you have been deprived. A |
| Tx:26.1 | part of him and sacrifice the rest. Look at the world, and you | will see nothing attached to anything beyond itself. All seeming |
| Tx:26.6 | his witness offers on behalf of peace. But judge him not, for you | will hear no song of liberation for yourself nor see what it is given |
| Tx:26.8 | be that you could make his sins reality and sacrifice his Father's | Will for him? |
| Tx:26.10 | problem seems to take. A problem can appear in many forms, and it | will do so while the problem lasts. It serves no purpose to attempt |
| Tx:26.10 | It serves no purpose to attempt to solve it in a special form. It | will recur and then recur again and yet again until it has been |
| Tx:26.10 | again and yet again until it has been answered for all time and | will not rise again in any form. And only then are you released from |
| Tx:26.14 | to see his innocence. Would it be fair to punish him because you | will not look at what is there to see? Each time you keep a problem |
| Tx:26.15 | One is given you to see in him his perfect sinlessness. And you | will ask no sacrifice of him because you could not will he suffer |
| Tx:26.15 | And you will ask no sacrifice of him because you could not | will he suffer loss. The miracle of justice you call forth will rest |
| Tx:26.15 | could not will he suffer loss. The miracle of justice you call forth | will rest on you as surely as on him. Nor will the Holy Spirit be |
| Tx:26.15 | of justice you call forth will rest on you as surely as on him. Nor | will the Holy Spirit be content until it is received by everyone. For |
| Tx:26.16 | Think then how great your own release | will be when you are willing to receive correction for all your |
| Tx:26.16 | you are willing to receive correction for all your problems. You | will not keep one, for pain in any form you will not want. And you |
| Tx:26.16 | all your problems. You will not keep one, for pain in any form you | will not want. And you will see each little hurt resolved before the |
| Tx:26.16 | will not keep one, for pain in any form you will not want. And you | will see each little hurt resolved before the Holy Spirit's gentle |
| Tx:26.16 | is gone. And in its place the love of God can be remembered and | will shine away all memory of sacrifice and loss. |
| Tx:26.17 | anything because He knows that everything that is belongs to Him and | will forever be as He created it. Nothing He loves but must be |
| Tx:26.17 | and barrier that seems to hold the door securely barred and locked | will merely fall away and disappear. For it is not your Father's Will |
| Tx:26.17 | will merely fall away and disappear. For it is not your Father's | Will that you should offer or receive less than He gave when He |
| Tx:26.21 | what is truth to him must be brought to the last comparison that he | will ever make, the last evaluation that will be possible, the final |
| Tx:26.21 | the last comparison that he will ever make, the last evaluation that | will be possible, the final judgment upon this world. It is the |
| Tx:26.22 | same? This difference is the learning goal this course has set. It | will not go beyond this aim. Its only purpose is to teach what is the |
| Tx:26.29 | Where sin once was perceived | will rise a world which will become an altar to the truth, and you |
| Tx:26.29 | Where sin once was perceived will rise a world which | will become an altar to the truth, and you will join the lights of |
| Tx:26.29 | will rise a world which will become an altar to the truth, and you | will join the lights of Heaven there and sing their song of gratitude |
| Tx:26.29 | of gratitude and praise. And as they come to you to be complete, so | will you go with them. For no one hears the song of Heaven and |
| Tx:26.29 | which withholds the wealth of Heaven from you! And how great | will be the joy in Heaven when you join the mighty chorus to the love |
| Tx:26.30 | There are two teachers only, who point in different ways. And you | will go along the way your chosen teacher leads. There are but two |
| Tx:26.30 | you can take while time remains and choice is meaningful. For never | will another road be made except the way to Heaven. You but choose |
| Tx:26.38 | has been so long ago corrected and undone. Can sin withstand the | Will of God? Can it be up to you to see the past and put it in the |
| Tx:26.39 | way along a road long since a memory of time gone by? [This course | will teach you only what is now.] A dreadful instant in a distant |
| Tx:26.40 | He was reborn the instant that he chose to die instead of live. And | will you not forgive him now because he made an error in the past |
| Tx:26.43 | the world that lies at Heaven's gate. There is no hindrance to the | Will of God nor any need that you repeat again a journey that was |
| Tx:26.44 | believe is good and valuable and worth striving for can hurt you and | will do so. Not because it has the power to hurt, but just because |
| Tx:26.46 | Who dwells with shadows is alone indeed, and loneliness is not the | Will of God. Would you allow one shadow to usurp the throne that God |
| Tx:26.46 | to whom they have been given can make sure that you receive them. He | will place them on your throne when you make room for Him on His. |
| Tx:26.50 | they are reversals of the laws of truth. The laws of truth forever | will be true and cannot be reversed, yet can be seen as upside-down. |
| Tx:26.51 | yield with equal ease to what God gave as answer to them all. God's | Will is One. And any wish that seems to go against His Will has no |
| Tx:26.51 | all. God's Will is One. And any wish that seems to go against His | Will has no foundation in the truth. |
| Tx:26.52 | be opposed by its own opposite, as real as it. Then would God's | Will be split in two and all creation be subjected to the laws of two |
| Tx:26.55 | this wish in line with Heaven's state and not in opposition to God's | Will. Although it falls far short of giving you your full |
| Tx:26.56 | this world which death and desolation seem to rule. In joyous answer | will creation rise within you to replace the world you see with |
| Tx:26.56 | the instant that the Son of God perceives his wishes and the | Will of God are one. |
| Tx:26.57 | What is the | Will of God? He wills His Son have everything. And this He guaranteed |
| Tx:26.58 | Can uncertainty be what you want? Or is it a mistake about your | will and what you really are? Let us consider what the error is, so |
| Tx:26.60 | source is to invite illusions to be true, without success. For never | will success be possible in trying to deceive the Son of God. |
| Tx:26.61 | is possible, then is God's Son made incomplete and not himself. [Nor | will he know himself nor recognize his will.] He has forsworn his |
| Tx:26.61 | and not himself. [Nor will he know himself nor recognize his | will.] He has forsworn his Father and himself and made them both his |
| Tx:26.62 | the same is different, you but deceive yourself. What God calls one | will be forever one, not separate. His Kingdom is united—thus it |
| Tx:26.62 | not separate. His Kingdom is united—thus it was created, and thus | will it ever be. |
| Tx:26.63 | The miracle but calls your ancient name, which you | will recognize because the truth is in your memory. And to this name, |
| Tx:26.66 | difference among the Sons of God. The unity that specialness denies | will save them all, for what is one can have no specialness. And |
| Tx:26.67 | to everyone, as theirs to you. Call on your brother's name and God | will answer, for on Him you call. Could He refuse to answer when He |
| Tx:26.68 | is that you see an interval between the time when you forgive and | will receive the benefits of trust. This but reflects the little you |
| Tx:26.70 | Salvation is immediate. Unless you so perceive it, you | will be afraid of it, believing that the risk of loss is great |
| Tx:26.70 | is great between the time its purpose is made yours and its effects | will come to you. In this form is the error still obscured that is |
| Tx:26.72 | where you cannot plan. No purpose has been given it as yet, and what | will happen has as yet no cause. Who can predict effects without a |
| Tx:26.73 | Spirit brought to your relationship has in it all effects that you | will see. They can be looked at now. Why wait till they unfold in |
| Tx:26.74 | with sighing and with “reasoning” you do not understand it now but | will some day. And then its meaning will be clear. This is not |
| Tx:26.74 | you do not understand it now but will some day. And then its meaning | will be clear. This is not reason, for it is unjust and clearly hints |
| Tx:26.77 | However much you wish he be condemned, God is in him. And never | will you know He is in you as well, while you attack His chosen home |
| Tx:26.84 | gratitude do God the Father and the Son return to what is Theirs and | will forever be. Now is the Holy Spirit's purpose done. For They have |
| Tx:26.85 | same as different. Confusion is not limited. If it occurs at all, it | will be total. And its presence, in whatever form, will hide Their |
| Tx:26.85 | occurs at all, it will be total. And its presence, in whatever form, | will hide Their Presence. They are known with clarity or not at all. |
| Tx:26.85 | They are known with clarity or not at all. Confused perception | will block knowledge. It is not a question of the size of the |
| Tx:27.1 | a unity of what can never join? Walk you the gentle way, and you | will fear no evil and no shadows in the night. But place no terror |
| Tx:27.1 | in the night. But place no terror symbols on your path, or you | will weave a crown of thorns from which your brother and yourself |
| Tx:27.1 | will weave a crown of thorns from which your brother and yourself | will not escape. You cannot crucify yourself alone. And if you are |
| Tx:27.2 | realize that he has been condemned. And what to you has been unfair | will come to him in righteousness. The unjust vengeance that you |
| Tx:27.2 | Wish not to make yourself a living symbol of his guilt, for you | will not escape the death you made for him. But in his innocence, you |
| Tx:27.4 | lest he forget the injuries he gave from which you swear he never | will escape. This sick and sorry picture you accept, if only it can |
| Tx:27.6 | Show this unto your brother, who | will see that every scar is healed and every tear is wiped away in |
| Tx:27.6 | healed and every tear is wiped away in laughter and in love. And he | will look on his forgiveness there and with healed eyes will look |
| Tx:27.6 | love. And he will look on his forgiveness there and with healed eyes | will look beyond it to the innocence that he beholds in you. Here is |
| Tx:27.7 | It is not | will for life, but wish for death that is the motivation for this |
| Tx:27.8 | esteem the worth of passing joys? What pleasures could there be that | will endure? Are not the frail entitled to believe that every stolen |
| Tx:27.8 | is their righteous payment for their little lives? Their death | will pay the price for all of them if they enjoy their benefits or |
| Tx:27.9 | strange belief that sin and death are real, and innocence and sin | will end alike within the termination of the grave. If this were |
| Tx:27.10 | for a purpose to be given that it may fulfill the function that it | will receive. |
| Tx:27.11 | the fetid scent of death. Let it have healing as its purpose. Then | will it send forth the message it received and by its health and |
| Tx:27.13 | his brother and could love and trust him still? He has attacked and | will attack again. Protect him not, because your damaged body shows |
| Tx:27.16 | that separation is without effect. What you would prove to him, you | will believe. The power of witness comes from your belief. And |
| Tx:27.18 | calling of the Father to His Son, and of the Son unto his own, | will yet be the last trumpet that the world will ever hear. Brother, |
| Tx:27.18 | of the Son unto his own, will yet be the last trumpet that the world | will ever hear. Brother, there is no death. And this you learn when |
| Tx:27.20 | be apart from his at all. As long as he consents to suffer, you | will be unhealed. Yet you can show him that his suffering is |
| Tx:27.20 | purposeless and wholly without cause. Show him your healing, and he | will consent no more to suffer. For his innocence has been |
| Tx:27.20 | innocence has been established in your sight and his. And laughter | will replace your sighs because God's Son remembered that he is God's |
| Tx:27.26 | In this interpretation of correction, your own mistakes you | will not even see. The focus of correction has been placed outside |
| Tx:27.27 | which the Holy Spirit sees as His. And you can rest assured that He | will not fulfill a function He cannot understand and recognize as |
| Tx:27.32 | the invitation's real appeal. For what you leave as vacant, God | will fill, and where He is, there must the truth abide. Unweakened |
| Tx:27.33 | in the learning interval it has a use which now you fear, but yet | will love. |
| Tx:27.34 | given you to occupy the space so lately left unoccupied and vacant | will not need defense of any kind. For you will give it overwhelming |
| Tx:27.34 | unoccupied and vacant will not need defense of any kind. For you | will give it overwhelming preference. Nor delay an instant in |
| Tx:27.34 | [For this you need no pictures and no learning aids.] And what | will ultimately take the place of every learning aid will merely be. |
| Tx:27.34 | aids.] And what will ultimately take the place of every learning aid | will merely be. Forgiveness vanishes and symbols fade, and nothing |
| Tx:27.36 | purpose is to make no resolution possible and to ensure no answer | will be plain. A problem set in conflict has no answer, for it is |
| Tx:27.38 | problems but within the holy instant's surety. For there the problem | will be answered and resolved. Outside there will be no solution, for |
| Tx:27.38 | For there the problem will be answered and resolved. Outside there | will be no solution, for there is no answer there that could be |

| Tx:27.42 | is meaningful at all. And so unless the answer tells “of whom,” it | will remain unrecognized, unheard, and thus the question is preserved |
| Tx:27.43 | which holds the answer lovingly for you. Here are the answers which | will solve your problems because they stand apart from them, and see |
| Tx:27.44 | are needed that it can begin. Accept the miracle of healing, and it | will go forth because of what it is. It is its nature to extend |
| Tx:27.47 | the world that could be feared. But if you shrink from blessing | will the world indeed seem fearful, for you have withheld its peace |
| Tx:27.48 | left behind on your returning to the world. And being blessed, you | will bring blessing. Life is given you to give the dying world. And |
| Tx:27.48 | is given you to give the dying world. And suffering eyes no longer | will accuse, but shine in thanks to you who blessing gave. The holy |
| Tx:27.48 | in thanks to you who blessing gave. The holy instant's radiance | will light your eyes and give them sight to see beyond all suffering |
| Tx:27.48 | the other, for they cannot both be there. And what you see the world | will witness, and will witness to. |
| Tx:27.48 | cannot both be there. And what you see the world will witness, and | will witness to. |
| Tx:27.49 | lesson which has perfectly been learned. And then when you forget it | will the world remind you gently of what you have taught. No |
| Tx:27.49 | world remind you gently of what you have taught. No reinforcement | will its thanks withhold from you who let yourself be healed that it |
| Tx:27.49 | withhold from you who let yourself be healed that it might live. It | will call forth its witnesses to show the face of Christ to you who |
| Tx:27.49 | the Friend who brought them their release. And happily your brother | will perceive the many friends he thought were enemies. |
| Tx:27.51 | Your healing | will extend and will be brought to problems that you thought were not |
| Tx:27.51 | Your healing will extend and | will be brought to problems that you thought were not your own. And |
| Tx:27.51 | be brought to problems that you thought were not your own. And it | will also be apparent that your many different problems will be |
| Tx:27.51 | own. And it will also be apparent that your many different problems | will be solved as any one of them has been escaped. It cannot be |
| Tx:27.52 | of your learning to the One Who really understands its laws and Who | will guarantee that they remain unviolated and unlimited. Your part |
| Tx:27.52 | part is merely to apply what He has taught you to yourself, and He | will do the rest. And thus the power of your learning will be proved |
| Tx:27.52 | and He will do the rest. And thus the power of your learning | will be proved to you by all the many different witnesses it finds. |
| Tx:27.52 | the many different witnesses it finds. Your brother first among them | will be seen, but thousands stand behind him, and beyond each one |
| Tx:27.53 | Peace be to you to whom is healing offered. And you | will learn that peace is given you when you accept the healing for |
| Tx:27.53 | occurred within the instant which love entered in without attack | will stay with you forever. Your healing will be one of its effects, |
| Tx:27.53 | entered in without attack will stay with you forever. Your healing | will be one of its effects, as will your brother's. Everywhere you go |
| Tx:27.53 | stay with you forever. Your healing will be one of its effects, as | will your brother's. Everywhere you go will you behold its multiplied |
| Tx:27.53 | be one of its effects, as will your brother's. Everywhere you go | will you behold its multiplied effects. Yet all the witnesses that |
| Tx:27.53 | behold its multiplied effects. Yet all the witnesses that you behold | will be far less than all there really are. Infinity cannot be |
| Tx:27.55 | this, the witnesses of sin are all alike. Call pleasure pain, and it | will hurt. Call pain a pleasure, and the pain behind the pleasure |
| Tx:27.55 | it will hurt. Call pain a pleasure, and the pain behind the pleasure | will be felt no more. Sin's witnesses but shift from name to name, as |
| Tx:27.61 | that you may demonstrate the healing of the world. The holy instant | will replace all sin if you but carry its effects with you. And no |
| Tx:27.61 | replace all sin if you but carry its effects with you. And no one | will elect to suffer more. What better function could you serve than |
| Tx:27.61 | heal, and suffer not the laws of sin to be applied to you. And truth | will be revealed to you who chose to let love's symbols take the |
| Tx:27.63 | made to keep the problem unresolved? Without the clouds, the problem | will emerge in all its primitive simplicity. The choice will not be |
| Tx:27.63 | the problem will emerge in all its primitive simplicity. The choice | will not be difficult, because the problem is absurd when clearly |
| Tx:27.65 | one thinks that if he does his part, the condemnation of the world | will rest on him. And it is this that he perceives to be his part in |
| Tx:27.66 | The means attest the purpose but are not themselves a cause. Nor | will the cause be changed by seeing it apart from its effects. The |
| Tx:27.69 | the weather or the time of day. It loves him not but casts him as it | will in any role that satisfies its dream. So little is his worth |
| Tx:27.72 | all are here. Here is the cause of unreality. And it is here that it | will be undone. |
| Tx:27.73 | the dreamer of the world of dreams. No other cause it has, nor ever | will. Nothing more fearful than an idle dream has terrified God's Son |
| Tx:27.75 | with you in holy innocence. And from this dream, the Lord of Heaven | will Himself awaken His beloved Son. Dream of your brother's |
| Tx:27.79 | of every dream the world has ever had. The “hero” of this dream | will never change nor will its purpose. Though the dream itself takes |
| Tx:27.79 | world has ever had. The “hero” of this dream will never change nor | will its purpose. Though the dream itself takes many forms and seems |
| Tx:27.82 | We can remember this if we but look directly at their cause. And we | will see the grounds for laughter, not a cause for fear. Let us |
| Tx:27.84 | The world but demonstrates an ancient truth—you | will believe that others do to you exactly what you think you did to |
| Tx:27.84 | you think you did to them. But once deluded into blaming them, you | will not see the cause of what they do because you want the guilt to |
| Tx:27.85 | of God, behold your idle dream in which this could occur,” and you | will leave the holy instant with your laughter and your brother's |
| Tx:27.86 | you failed to recognize it is your dream. This single lesson learned | will set you free from suffering, whatever form it takes. |
| Tx:27.87 | The Holy Spirit | will repeat this one inclusive lesson of deliverance until it has |
| Tx:27.87 | of suffering that brings you pain. Whatever hurt you bring to Him He | will make answer with this very simple truth. For this one answer |
| Tx:27.87 | the single cause of all of them, no matter what their form. And you | will understand that miracles reflect the simple statement, |
| Tx:27.89 | is like the rest. He sees no differences where none exist, and He | will teach you how each one is caused. None has a different cause |
| Tx:27.89 | but learn you choose but not to listen, not to see. How differently | will you perceive the world when this is recognized! When you forgive |
| Tx:27.89 | when this is recognized! When you forgive the world your guilt, you | will be free of it. Its innocence does not demand your guilt, nor |
| Tx:27.90 | that they both be true. This is the only secret yet to learn. And it | will be no secret you are healed. |
| Tx:28.6 | because its cause has gone. Yet change must have a cause that | will endure or else it will not last. No change can be made in the |
| Tx:28.6 | has gone. Yet change must have a cause that will endure or else it | will not last. No change can be made in the present if its cause is |
| Tx:28.7 | the new effects of cause accepted now, with consequences here. They | will surprise you with their loveliness. The ancient new ideas they |
| Tx:28.7 | surprise you with their loveliness. The ancient new ideas they bring | will be the happy consequences of a cause so ancient that it far |
| Tx:28.8 | in which He did not keep It safely in your mind. Its consequences | will indeed seem new because you thought that you remembered not |
| Tx:28.8 | Yet was It never absent from your mind, for it was not your Father's | Will that He be unremembered by His [only] Son. |
| Tx:28.9 | you that It has not gone. When you forgive It for your sins, It | will no longer be denied. |
| Tx:28.10 | His Son could be condemned for what was causeless and against His | Will. What your remembering would witness to is but the fear of God. |
| Tx:28.11 | in quiet then, to other minds to share its quietness. And they | will join in doing nothing to prevent its radiant extension back into |
| Tx:28.11 | own remembering is quiet now, and what has come to take its place | will not be wholly unremembered afterwards. |
| Tx:28.15 | the memory of God to flow across it, making it a bridge an instant | will suffice to reach beyond? For God has closed it with Himself. His |
| Tx:28.15 | and gently carried over. He has built the bridge, and it is He Who | will transport His Son across it. Have no fear that He will fail in |
| Tx:28.15 | it is He Who will transport His Son across it. Have no fear that He | will fail in what He wills. Nor that you be excluded from the Will |
| Tx:28.15 | He will fail in what He wills. Nor that you be excluded from the | Will that is for you. |
| Tx:28.21 | it has no cause, it has no purpose. You may cause a dream, but never | will you give it real effects. For that would change its cause, and |
| Tx:28.24 | For this confusion has produced the dream, and while it lasts, | will wakening be feared. Nor will the call to wakening be heard, |
| Tx:28.24 | produced the dream, and while it lasts, will wakening be feared. Nor | will the call to wakening be heard, because it seems to be the call |
| Tx:28.26 | the body to be victim or effect of what it made. Yet half the lesson | will not teach the whole. The miracle is useless if you learn but |
| Tx:28.27 | is free to make another choice instead. Beginning here, salvation | will proceed to change the course of every step in the descent to |
| Tx:28.28 | concern at present. Here is where we must begin. And having started, | will the way be made serene and simple in the rising up to waking and |
| Tx:28.28 | to one that is already being dreamed. Without support, the dream | will fade away without effects. For it is your support that |
| Tx:28.33 | the shame of [sin] He cannot bridge, for He cannot destroy the alien | will that He created not. Let its effects be gone and clutch them not |
| Tx:28.33 | them not with eager hands, to keep them for yourself. The miracle | will brush them all aside and thus make room for Him Who wills to |
| Tx:28.35 | was seen to stand between you, join your brother there. And sickness | will be seen without a cause. The dream of healing in forgiveness |
| Tx:28.35 | to bring you witness to what never was. And in your storehouse it | will make a place of welcome for your Father and your Self. The door |
| Tx:28.35 | and would enjoy the feast of plenty set before them there. And they | will meet with your invited Guests the miracle has asked to come to |
| Tx:28.37 | of dreams of pain because you let him be. Unless you help him, you | will suffer pain with him because that is your wish. And you become a |
| Tx:28.38 | to be a part of fearful dreams whatever form they take, for you | will lose identity in them. You find yourself by not accepting them |
| Tx:28.40 | is by not supporting his illusions by your faith, for if you do, you | will have faith in yours. With faith in yours, he will not be |
| Tx:28.40 | for if you do, you will have faith in yours. With faith in yours, he | will not be released, and you are kept in bondage to his dream. And |
| Tx:28.40 | and you are kept in bondage to his dream. And dreams of fear | will haunt the little gap, inhabited but by illusions which you have |
| Tx:28.41 | Be certain, if you do your part, he | will do his, for he will join you where you stand. Call not to him to |
| Tx:28.41 | Be certain, if you do your part, he will do his, for he | will join you where you stand. Call not to him to meet you in the gap |
| Tx:28.42 | of yours. Yet if you see there is no truth in yours, his dreams | will [disappear before his eyes], and he will understand what made |
| Tx:28.42 | truth in yours, his dreams will [disappear before his eyes], and he | will understand what made the dream. |
| Tx:28.44 | bit which he insisted was himself. And when he sees this picture, he | will recognize himself. If you share not your brother's evil dream, |
| Tx:28.44 | not your brother's evil dream, this is the picture that the miracle | will place within the little gap, left clean of all the seeds of |
| Tx:28.44 | clean of all the seeds of sickness and of sin. And here the Father | will receive His Son, because His Son was gracious to himself. |
| Tx:28.45 | I thank you, Father, knowing you | will come to close each little gap that lies between the broken |
| Tx:28.46 | to let illusions go is all the Healer of God's Son requires. He | will place the miracle of healing where the seeds of sickness were. |
| Tx:28.46 | the miracle of healing where the seeds of sickness were. And there | will be no loss, but only gain. |
| Tx:28.47 | share it, nothing can exist. And you exist because God shared His | Will with you, that His creation might create. |
| Tx:28.49 | Remember if you share an evil dream, you | will believe you are the dream you share. And fearing it, you will |
| Tx:28.49 | you will believe you are the dream you share. And fearing it, you | will not want to know your own Identity because you think that it is |
| Tx:28.49 | know your own Identity because you think that it is fearful. And you | will deny your Self and walk upon an alien ground which your Creator |
| Tx:28.49 | did not make and where you seem to be a “something” you are not. You | will make war upon your Self, which seems to be your enemy, and will |
| Tx:28.49 | You will make war upon your Self, which seems to be your enemy, and | will attack your brother as a part of what you hate. There is no |
| Tx:28.53 | gap, and you behold the innocence and emptiness of sin that you | will see within yourself when you have lost the fear of recognizing |
| Tx:28.54 | understand what it is for. It does not victimize because it has no | will, no preferences, and no doubts. It does not wonder what it is. |
| Tx:28.58 | Sickness is anger taken out upon the body, so that it | will suffer pain. It is the obvious effect of what was made in |
| Tx:28.59 | with each one—that you be one with him and not apart. And he | will keep the promise that you make with him because it is the one |
| Tx:28.59 | never be apart from Me.” His Son remembers not that he replied “I | will,” though in that promise he was born. Yet God reminds him of it |
| Tx:28.59 | mind be healed and unified. His secret vows are powerless before the | Will of God, Whose promises he shares. And what he substitutes is not |
| Tx:28.59 | of God, Whose promises he shares. And what he substitutes is not his | will, who has made promise of himself to God. |
| Tx:28.60 | where God is not, a gap between the Father and the Son is not the | will of either, who have promised to be one. God's promise is a |
| Tx:28.60 | there is no gap between Himself and what He is cannot be false. What | will can come between what must be one, and in Whose wholeness there |
| Tx:28.61 | and the world waits with him. Nor are you apart from it. For healing | will be one or not at all, its oneness being where the healing lies. |
| Tx:28.63 | the healing of God's Son, and for this purpose it cannot be sick. It | will not join a purpose not your own, and you have chosen that it not |
| Tx:28.64 | bar the door and lock the windows and make fast the bolts. The wind | will topple it, and rain will come and carry it into oblivion. |

| Tx:28.66 | have made instead has shaken the Foundation of his home. The winds | will blow upon it, and the rain will beat against it but with no |
| Tx:28.66 | Foundation of his home. The winds will blow upon it, and the rain | will beat against it but with no effect. The world will wash away, |
| Tx:28.66 | it, and the rain will beat against it but with no effect. The world | will wash away, and yet this house will stand forever, for its |
| Tx:28.66 | it but with no effect. The world will wash away, and yet this house | will stand forever, for its strength lies not within itself alone. It |
| Tx:28.66 | a home of holiness a little while because it shares your Father's | Will with you. |
| Tx:29.4 | to go your separate ways. Conditional upon the “right” to separate | will you agree to meet from time to time and keep apart in intervals |
| Tx:29.5 | you cannot do. It dictates what its health can tolerate and what | will tire it and make it sick. And its “inherent” weaknesses set up |
| Tx:29.6 | The body | will accommodate to this if you would have it so. It will allow but |
| Tx:29.6 | The body will accommodate to this if you would have it so. It | will allow but limited indulgences in “love,” with intervals of |
| Tx:29.6 | indulgences in “love,” with intervals of hatred in between. And it | will take command of when to “love” and when to shrink more safely |
| Tx:29.6 | of when to “love” and when to shrink more safely into fear. It | will be sick because you do not know what loving means. And so you |
| Tx:29.10 | you give up nothing, until you understand there is no loss, you | will have some regrets about the way that you have chosen. And you |
| Tx:29.10 | will have some regrets about the way that you have chosen. And you | will not see the many gains your choice has offered you. Yet though |
| Tx:29.11 | its effects are there, though not yet seen. Look inward now, and you | will not behold a reason for regret but cause indeed for glad |

| Tx:29.13 | to all who walk apart believing they are separate and alone. They | will be healed when you accept your gifts, because your Guest will |
| Tx:29.13 | They will be healed when you accept your gifts, because your Guest | will welcome everyone whose feet have touched the holy ground whereon |
| Tx:29.14 | but you can see the gifts He brought. And when you look on them, you | will believe His Presence must be there. For what you now can do |
| Tx:29.18 | The body that is asked to be a god | will be attacked because its nothingness has not been recognized. And |
| Tx:29.18 | itself. And it can fail to be what you demanded that it be. And you | will hate it for its littleness, unmindful that the failure does not |
| Tx:29.20 | Thus he learns it must be his to give. Unless he gives, he | will not know he has, for giving is the proof of having. Only those |
| Tx:29.22 | in the space of light where God abides within the darkness, you | will see that God Himself is where his body is. Before this light the |
| Tx:29.22 | that it remain. The coming of the light means it is gone. In glory | will you see your brother then and understand what really fills the |
| Tx:29.23 | your mind. When light has come to him through your forgiveness, he | will not forget his savior, leaving him unsaved. For it was in your |
| Tx:29.24 | the dream—that you can help him waken and be sure his waking eyes | will rest on you. And in his glad salvation, you are saved. |
| Tx:29.27 | It can be in you or someone else, but where it is perceived, it | will be there it is attacked. Depression or assault must be the theme |
| Tx:29.36 | Holy Spirit gives the dream its function, it was made for hate and | will continue in death's services. Each form it takes in some way |
| Tx:29.39 | thing in all the universe that must be one. What seems eternal all | will have an end. The stars will disappear, and night and day will be |
| Tx:29.39 | that must be one. What seems eternal all will have an end. The stars | will disappear, and night and day will be no more. All things that |
| Tx:29.39 | all will have an end. The stars will disappear, and night and day | will be no more. All things that come and go, the tides, the seasons, |
| Tx:29.39 | lives of men; all things that change with time and bloom and fade | will not return. Where time has set an end is not where the eternal |
| Tx:29.39 | eternal is. God's Son can never change by what men made of him. He | will be as he was and as he is, for time appointed not his destiny |
| Tx:29.39 | not his destiny nor set the hour of his birth and death. Forgiveness | will not change him. Yet time waits upon forgiveness that the things |
| Tx:29.42 | This world | will bind your feet and tie your hands and kill your body only if you |
| Tx:29.43 | Seek not outside yourself. For it | will fail, and you will weep each time an idol falls. Heaven cannot |
| Tx:29.43 | Seek not outside yourself. For it will fail, and you | will weep each time an idol falls. Heaven cannot be found where it is |
| Tx:29.43 | no peace excepting there. Each idol that you worship when God calls | will never answer in His place. There is no other answer you can |
| Tx:29.43 | are told where happiness abides and seek no longer elsewhere. You | will fail. But it is given you to know the truth and not to seek for |
| Tx:29.44 | or some dream that there is something outside of himself that | will bring happiness and peace to him. If everything is in him, this |
| Tx:29.45 | The lingering illusion | will impel him to seek out a thousand idols and to seek beyond them |
| Tx:29.45 | thousand idols and to seek beyond them for a thousand more. And each | will fail him, all excepting one; for he will die and does not |
| Tx:29.45 | a thousand more. And each will fail him, all excepting one; for he | will die and does not understand the idol that he seeks is but his |
| Tx:29.48 | of the world the past has given it. For otherwise, the future | will be like the past and but a series of depressing dreams in which |
| Tx:29.53 | are but substitutes for your reality. In some way, you believe they | will complete your little self [and let you walk in] safety in a |
| Tx:29.55 | Christ's enemy is nowhere. He can take no form in which he ever | will be real. |
| Tx:29.58 | things forever and has left no room for anything to be except His | Will. Nothing and nowhere must an idol be while God is everything and |
| Tx:29.59 | contain. Each worshiper of idols harbors hope his special deities | will give him more than other men possess. It must be more. It does |
| Tx:29.59 | is a means for getting more. And it is this that is against God's | Will. |
| Tx:29.60 | as of Himself. No idol can establish you as more than God. But you | will never be content with being less. |
| Tx:29.62 | the dream? It is a dream of judgment. So must he judge not, and he | will waken. For the dream will seem to last while he is part of it. |
| Tx:29.62 | of judgment. So must he judge not, and he will waken. For the dream | will seem to last while he is part of it. Judge not, for he who |
| Tx:29.62 | seem to last while he is part of it. Judge not, for he who judges | will have need of idols which will hold the judgment off from resting |
| Tx:29.62 | of it. Judge not, for he who judges will have need of idols which | will hold the judgment off from resting on himself. Nor can he know |
| Tx:29.63 | is an injustice to God's Son, and it is justice that who judges him | will not escape the penalty he laid upon himself within the dream he |
| Tx:29.66 | judges this as does a child, who does not know what hurts and what | will heal. And bad things seem to happen, and he is afraid of all the |
| Tx:29.69 | Heaven goes with you—be sure you made an idol and believe it | will betray you. For beneath your hope that it will save you lie the |
| Tx:29.69 | idol and believe it will betray you. For beneath your hope that it | will save you lie the guilt and pain of self-betrayal and |
| Tx:30.1 | one thing alone—your willingness to practice every step. Each one | will help a little every time it is attempted. And together will |
| Tx:30.1 | Each one will help a little every time it is attempted. And together | will these steps lead you from dreams of judgment to forgiving dreams |
| Tx:30.1 | the rules by which you live. We seek to make them habits now, so you | will have them ready for whatever need. |
| Tx:30.2 | you take. The proper set, adopted consciously each time you wake, | will put you well ahead. And if you find resistance strong and |
| Tx:30.4 | Today I | will make no decision by myself. |
| Tx:30.5 | not to be the judge of what to do. But it must also mean you | will not judge the situations where you will be called upon to make |
| Tx:30.5 | But it must also mean you will not judge the situations where you | will be called upon to make response. For if you judge them, you have |
| Tx:30.6 | feel attacked. And therefore angry. There are rules by which this | will not happen. But it does occur at first, while you are learning |
| Tx:30.8 | If I make no decision by myself, This is the day that | will be given me. |
| Tx:30.9 | These two procedures, practiced well, | will serve to let you be directed without fear, for opposition will |
| Tx:30.9 | well, will serve to let you be directed without fear, for opposition | will not first arise and then become a problem in itself. |
| Tx:30.10 | But there | will still be times when you have judged already. Now the answer will |
| Tx:30.10 | will still be times when you have judged already. Now the answer | will provoke attack unless you quickly straighten out your mind to |
| Tx:30.10 | unless you quickly straighten out your mind to want an answer that | will work. Be certain this has happened if you feel yourself |
| Tx:30.14 | in a different way from what your version of the question asks | will gain momentum until you believe the day you want is one in which |
| Tx:30.14 | want is one in which you get your answer to your question. And you | will not get it, for it would destroy the day by robbing you of what |
| Tx:30.20 | need, because you do not like the way you feel. This tiny opening | will be enough to let you go ahead with just a few more steps you |
| Tx:30.21 | reached the turning point, because it has occurred to you that you | will gain if what you have decided is not so. Until this point is |
| Tx:30.21 | if what you have decided is not so. Until this point is reached, you | will believe your happiness depends on being right. But this much |
| Tx:30.22 | 6. This tiny grain of wisdom | will suffice to take you further. You are not coerced but merely hope |
| Tx:30.27 | Thus you now can ask a question that makes sense, and so the answer | will make sense as well. Nor will you fight against it, for you see |
| Tx:30.27 | that makes sense, and so the answer will make sense as well. Nor | will you fight against it, for you see that it is you who will be |
| Tx:30.27 | well. Nor will you fight against it, for you see that it is you who | will be helped by it. |
| Tx:30.28 | from entering at all. But this takes practice in the rules which | will protect you from the ravages of fear. When this has been |
| Tx:30.29 | then, is not coercion but a simple statement of a simple fact. You | will not make decisions by yourself whatever you decide. For they are |
| Tx:30.29 | God. And you ask help of Christ or anti-Christ, and which you choose | will join with you and tell you what to do. |
| Tx:30.31 | the world as well. The day you want you offer to the world, for it | will be what you have asked for and will reinforce the rule of your |
| Tx:30.31 | you offer to the world, for it will be what you have asked for and | will reinforce the rule of your advisor in the world. Whose kingdom |
| Tx:30.31 | world. Whose kingdom is the world for you today? What kind of day | will you decide to have? |
| Tx:30.32 | that they cannot decide alone to guarantee the joy they asked for | will be wholly shared. For they have understood the basic law that |
| Tx:30.32 | law that makes decision powerful and gives it all effects that it | will ever have. It needs but two. These two are joined before there |
| Tx:30.32 | Let this be the one reminder that you keep in mind, and you | will have the day you want and give it to the world by having it |
| Tx:30.33 | oppose the Holy Spirit is to fight yourself? He tells you but your | will; He speaks for you. In His divinity is but your own. And all He |
| Tx:30.33 | He knows is but your knowledge, saved for you that you may do your | will through Him. God asks you do your will. He joins with you. He |
| Tx:30.33 | for you that you may do your will through Him. God asks you do your | will. He joins with you. He did not set His Kingdom up alone. And |
| Tx:30.33 | not set His Kingdom up alone. And Heaven itself but represents your | will, where everything created is for you. No spark of life but was |
| Tx:30.34 | How wonderful it is to do your | will! For that is freedom. There is nothing else that ever should be |
| Tx:30.34 | that ever should be called by freedom's name. Unless you do your | will, you are not free. And would God leave His Son without what he |
| Tx:30.34 | chosen for himself? God but ensured that you would never lose your | will when He gave you His perfect answer. Hear it now that you may be |
| Tx:30.34 | Hear it now that you may be reminded of His love and learn your | will. God would not have His Son made prisoner to what he does not |
| Tx:30.35 | is His Voice and yours as well, reminding you that it is not your | will to hate and be a prisoner to fear, a slave to death, a little |
| Tx:30.35 | fear, a slave to death, a little creature with a little life. Your | will is boundless; it is not your will that it be bound. What lies in |
| Tx:30.35 | creature with a little life. Your will is boundless; it is not your | will that it be bound. What lies in you has joined with God Himself |
| Tx:30.35 | creation's birth. Remember He Who has created you and through your | will created everything. Not one created thing but gives you thanks, |
| Tx:30.35 | Not one created thing but gives you thanks, for it is by your | will that it was born. No light of Heaven shines except for you, for |
| Tx:30.35 | of Heaven shines except for you, for it was set in Heaven by your | will. |
| Tx:30.36 | co-creator of the universe along with Him. He would but keep your | will forever and forever limitless. |
| Tx:30.37 | This world awaits the freedom you | will give when you have recognized that you are free. But you will |
| Tx:30.37 | you will give when you have recognized that you are free. But you | will not forgive the world until you have forgiven Him Who gave your |
| Tx:30.37 | will not forgive the world until you have forgiven Him Who gave your | will to you. For it is by your will the world is given freedom. Nor |
| Tx:30.37 | you have forgiven Him Who gave your will to you. For it is by your | will the world is given freedom. Nor can you be free apart from Him |
| Tx:30.37 | is given freedom. Nor can you be free apart from Him Whose holy | will you share. God turns to you to ask the world be saved, for by |
| Tx:30.37 | no power over him because he shares your freedom as he shares your | will. It is your will to heal him, and because you have decided with |
| Tx:30.37 | because he shares your freedom as he shares your will. It is your | will to heal him, and because you have decided with him, he is |
| Tx:30.38 | Idols are quite specific. But your | will is universal, being limitless. And so it has no form nor is |
| Tx:30.38 | Idols are limits. They are the belief that there are forms which | will bring happiness and that, by limiting, is all attained. It is as |
| Tx:30.38 | “I have no need of everything. This little thing I want, and it | will be as everything to me.” And this must fail to satisfy because |
| Tx:30.38 | everything to me.” And this must fail to satisfy because it is your | will that everything be yours. Decide for idols, and you ask for |
| Tx:30.39 | the limitless be limited? You do not want an idol. It is not your | will to have one. It will not bestow on you the gift you seek. When |
| Tx:30.39 | You do not want an idol. It is not your will to have one. It | will not bestow on you the gift you seek. When you decide upon the |
| Tx:30.39 | you want, you lose the understanding of its purpose. So you see your | will within the idol, thus reducing it to a specific form. Yet this |
| Tx:30.39 | thus reducing it to a specific form. Yet this could never be your | will because what shares in all creation cannot be content with small |
| Tx:30.40 | mean that you believe some form is missing. And by finding this, you | will achieve completion in a form you like. This is the purpose of an |
| Tx:30.40 | in a form you like. This is the purpose of an idol—that you | will not look beyond it to the source of the belief that you are |
| Tx:30.41 | the right to ask for. Nor could it be possible it be denied. Your | will to be complete is but God's Will, and this is given you by being |
| Tx:30.41 | it be possible it be denied. Your will to be complete is but God's | Will, and this is given you by being His. God knows not form. He |
| Tx:30.41 | form. He cannot answer you in terms which have no meaning. And your | will could not be satisfied with empty forms made but to fill a gap |
| Tx:30.42 | has no need to seek for it at all. Beyond all idols stands his holy | will to be but what he is. For more than whole is meaningless. If |
| Tx:30.42 | make whole. But what is really asked for cannot be denied. Your | will is granted. Not in any form that would content you not, but in |
| Tx:30.44 | God holds of you is perfectly unchanged by your forgetting. It | will always be exactly as it was before the time when you forgot and |
| Tx:30.44 | will always be exactly as it was before the time when you forgot and | will be just the same when you remember. And it is the same within |
| Tx:30.45 | of Heaven know not it is there. Yet still and white and lovely | will it shine through all eternity. There was no time it was not |
| Tx:30.49 | You | will attack what does not satisfy, and thus you will not see you made |
| Tx:30.49 | You will attack what does not satisfy, and thus you | will not see you made it up. You always fight illusions. For the |
| Tx:30.52 | toys without a single meaning of their own. See one in them, and you | will see them all. See none in them, and they will touch you not. |
| Tx:30.52 | one in them, and you will see them all. See none in them, and they | will touch you not. |
| Tx:30.54 | that wants to be deceived. And you can make a simple choice that | will forever place you far beyond deception. You need not concern |
| Tx:30.54 | far beyond deception. You need not concern yourself with how this | will be done, for this you cannot understand. But you will understand |
| Tx:30.54 | with how this will be done, for this you cannot understand. But you | will understand that mighty changes have been quickly brought about |
| Tx:30.55 | to look upon the unreal as reality. You are but asked to let your | will be done and seek no longer for the things you do not want. And |
| Tx:30.55 | and seek no more to substitute the strength of idle wishes for the | Will of God. |
| Tx:30.56 | thing that he could ever want. He is delivered from illusions by his | will and but restored to what he is. What could God's plan for his |
| Tx:30.59 | the purpose of forgiveness still remains. Yet everyone is certain he | will go beyond forgiveness, and he but remains until it is made |
| Tx:30.63 | they joined their hands, it was Christ's hand they took, and they | will look on Him Whose hand they hold. The face of Christ is looked |
| Tx:30.63 | the love of God. Yet is the love of Christ accepted first. And then | will come the knowledge They are One. |
| Tx:30.68 | then. And do not choose an idol thoughtlessly, remembering that he | will pay the cost as well as you. For he will be delayed when you |
| Tx:30.68 | remembering that he will pay the cost as well as you. For he | will be delayed when you look back, and you will not perceive Whose |
| Tx:30.68 | as well as you. For he will be delayed when you look back, and you | will not perceive Whose loving hand you hold. Look forward, then, and |
| Tx:30.69 | The | Will of God forever lies in those whose hands are joined. Until they |
| Tx:30.69 | when they joined and shared a purpose, they were free to learn their | will is one. And thus the Will of God must reach to their awareness. |
| Tx:30.69 | a purpose, they were free to learn their will is one. And thus the | Will of God must reach to their awareness. Nor can they forget for |
| Tx:30.70 | Attack has no foundation. It is here escape from fear begins and | will be made complete. Here is the real world given in exchange for |
| Tx:30.70 | that, by responding in a way which is not justified, your pardon | will become the answer to attack that has been made. And thus is |
| Tx:30.73 | you have learned forgiveness is your right as much as his. Nor | will you think that God intends for you a fearful judgment which your |
| Tx:30.74 | Forgiveness recognized as merited | will heal. It gives the miracle its strength to overlook illusions. |
| Tx:30.74 | creation and to make a world which could replace it and destroy the | Will of God. Only if this were possible could there be some |
| Tx:30.76 | but only some of it. You must forgive God's Son entirely. Or you | will keep an image of yourself that is not whole and will remain |
| Tx:30.76 | Or you will keep an image of yourself that is not whole and | will remain afraid to look within and find escape from every idol |
| Tx:30.78 | God's Son is perfect, or he cannot be God's Son. Nor | will you know him if you think he does not merit the escape from |
| Tx:30.79 | I thank you, Father, for your perfect Son, and in his glory | will I see my own. |
| Tx:30.80 | statement that there are no forms of evil which can overcome the | Will of God—the glad acknowledgment that guilt has not succeeded by |
| Tx:30.81 | Look on your brother with this hope in you, and you | will understand he could not make an error that could change the |
| Tx:30.81 | what you see as having power to make an idol of the Son of God you | will not pardon. For he has become to you a graven image and a sign |
| Tx:30.88 | Do not interpret out of solitude, for what you see means nothing. It | will shift in what it stands for, and you will believe the world is |
| Tx:30.88 | you see means nothing. It will shift in what it stands for, and you | will believe the world is an uncertain place in which you walk in |
| Tx:30.89 | to see beyond appearances, you are deceived. For everything you see | will change, and yet you thought it real before, and now you think it |
| Tx:30.93 | and offer them to you to see in happy form, devoid of fear. It | will be given you to look upon your brother thus. But not while you |
| Tx:30.93 | no dreams about him which you would prefer to seeing this. And you | will see the Christ in him because you let Him come to you. And when |
| Tx:30.93 | you let Him come to you. And when He has appeared to you, you | will be certain you are like Him, for He is the changeless in your |
| Tx:30.94 | This | will you look upon when you decide there is not one appearance you |
| Tx:30.94 | in him in your sight of him. There is no false appearance but | will fade if you request a miracle instead. There is no pain from |
| Tx:31.1 | All it says is what was never true is not true now and never | will be. The impossible has not occurred and can have no effects. And |
| Tx:31.3 | For your power to learn is strong enough to teach you that your | will is not your own, your thoughts do not belong to you, and even |
| Tx:31.5 | an ability you made and gave yourselves. It was not made to do the | Will of God but to uphold a wish that It could be opposed, and that a |
| Tx:31.5 | of God but to uphold a wish that It could be opposed, and that a | will apart from It was yet more real than It. And this has learning |
| Tx:31.5 | difficult to see, and too opposed to what is really true. Yet you | will learn them, for their learning is the only purpose for your |
| Tx:31.6 | no meaning? God willed not His Son forget Him. And the power of His | Will is in the Voice that speaks for Him. Which lesson will you |
| Tx:31.6 | power of His Will is in the Voice that speaks for Him. Which lesson | will you learn? What outcome is inevitable, sure as God, and far |
| Tx:31.6 | little learning, strange in outcome and incredible in difficulty, | will withstand the simple lessons being taught to you in every moment |
| Tx:31.7 | happiness in it. There is no plan for safety you can make that ever | will succeed. There is no joy that you can seek for here and hope to |
| Tx:31.7 | the lesson which reflects the love of God is stronger still. And you | will learn God's Son is innocent and see another world. |
| Tx:31.8 | in the selfsame tongue in which the call was made. And you | will understand it was this call that everyone and everything within |
| Tx:31.9 | There is no living thing which does not share the universal | will that it be whole and that you do not leave its call unheard. |
| Tx:31.10 | Who calls to you beyond each form of hate, each call to war. Yet you | will recognize Him as you give Him answer in the language that He |
| Tx:31.10 | Him as you give Him answer in the language that He calls. He | will appear when you have answered Him, and you will know in Him that |
| Tx:31.10 | that He calls. He will appear when you have answered Him, and you | will know in Him that God is Love. |
| Tx:31.11 | call beyond it that appeals for peace and joy. And all the world | will give you joy and peace. For as you hear, you answer. And behold! |
| Tx:31.15 | is not a choice and gives but the illusion it is free, for it | will have one outcome either way. Thus is it really not a choice at |
| Tx:31.17 | What does he ask you for? And listen well! For he is asking what | will come to you because you see an image of yourself and hear your |
| Tx:31.20 | road. He is like us, as near or far away from what we want as we | will let him be. We make no gains he does not make with us, and we |
| Tx:31.21 | Because he is your equal in God's love, you | will be saved from all appearances and answer to the Christ Who calls |
| Tx:31.22 | you ever learned before and put aside all images you made. The old | will fall away before the new without your opposition or intent. |
| Tx:31.22 | fall away before the new without your opposition or intent. There | will be no attack upon the things you thought were precious and in |
| Tx:31.22 | upon the things you thought were precious and in need of care. There | will be no assault upon your wish to hear a call that never has been |
| Tx:31.22 | upon your wish to hear a call that never has been made. Nothing | will hurt you in this holy place to which you come to listen silently |
| Tx:31.22 | and learn the truth of what you really want. No more than this | will you be asked to learn. But as you hear it, you will understand |
| Tx:31.22 | more than this will you be asked to learn. But as you hear it, you | will understand you need but come away without the thoughts you did |
| Tx:31.24 | of who your great companion is and what he should be asking for | will be enough to let this happen. And you will perceive his purpose |
| Tx:31.24 | he should be asking for will be enough to let this happen. And you | will perceive his purpose is the same as yours. He asks for what you |
| Tx:31.26 | Only the self-accused condemn. As you prepare to make a choice that | will result in different outcomes, there is first one thing that must |
| Tx:31.31 | Let us be glad that you | will see what you believe, and that it has been given you to change |
| Tx:31.31 | and that it has been given you to change what you believe. The body | will but follow. It can never lead you where you would not be. It |
| Tx:31.31 | with your awakening. Release your body from imprisonment, and you | will see no one as prisoner to what you have escaped. You will not |
| Tx:31.31 | and you will see no one as prisoner to what you have escaped. You | will not want to hold in guilt your chosen enemies nor keep in chains |
| Tx:31.32 | from imprisonment and death. Open your mind to change, and there | will be no ancient penalty exacted from your brother or yourself. For |
| Tx:31.33 | time when everyone conflicts with you, but you can choose which road | will lead you out of conflict and away from difficulties which |
| Tx:31.33 | escape from them by leaving them behind? What must go with you, you | will take with you whatever road you choose to walk along. |
| Tx:31.34 | is but the means to gain that end, for it is here that all its roads | will lead, however differently they seem to start, however |
| Tx:31.34 | Their end is certain, for there is no choice among them. All of them | will lead to death. On some you travel gaily for a while before the |
| Tx:31.34 | And on some the thorns are felt at once. The choice is not what | will the ending be but when it comes. |
| Tx:31.36 | you have learned to what is yet to learn. For from this lowest point | will learning lead to heights of happiness in which you see the |
| Tx:31.39 | direction, not away from it. And every road that leads the other way | will not advance the purpose to be found. If this be difficult to |
| Tx:31.40 | on this—you choose between your brother and yourself, and you | will gain as much as he will lose, and what you lose is what is given |
| Tx:31.40 | between your brother and yourself, and you will gain as much as he | will lose, and what you lose is what is given him. How utterly |
| Tx:31.41 | nor any worldly goal is one with His. What road in all the world | will lead within, when every road was made to separate the journey |
| Tx:31.41 | be but futile wandering? All roads that lead away from what you are | will lead you to confusion and despair. Yet has He never left His |
| Tx:31.47 | the pathways of the world are safely kept and those who walk on them | will not escape. |

| W1:I.1 | to make these exercises meaningful. Yet it is the exercises which | will make the goal possible. An untrained mind can accomplish |
| W1:I.3 | purpose is to train the mind to generalize the lessons, so that you | will understand that each of them is as applicable to one situation |
| W1:I.4 | which the idea for the day is inapplicable. The aim of the exercises | will always be to increase the application of the idea to everything. |
| W1:I.4 | be to increase the application of the idea to everything. This | will not require effort. Only be sure that you make no exceptions in |
| W1:I.5 | Some of the ideas you | will find hard to believe, and others will seem quite startling. It |
| W1:I.5 | Some of the ideas you will find hard to believe, and others | will seem quite startling. It does not matter. You are merely asked |
| W1:I.5 | believe them. You are asked only to use them. It is their use which | will give them meaning to you and show you they are true. Remember |
| W1:I.5 | not welcome them. Some of them you may actively resist. None of this | will matter nor decrease their efficacy. But allow yourself to make |
| W1:2.1 | and do not attempt to include everything in an area or you | will introduce strain. Merely glance easily and fairly quickly around |
| W1:4.1 | Do not, however, select only the thoughts you think are “bad.” You | will find, if you train yourself to look at your thoughts, that they |
| W1:4.3 | This is a major exercise and | will be repeated from time to time in somewhat different form. The |
| W1:4.5 | these exercises more than three or four times during the day. We | will return to them later. |
| W1:5.1 | anger, hatred, jealousy, or any number of forms, all of which | will be perceived as different. This is not true. However, until you |
| W1:5.9 | and let the others go. For the purposes of these exercises, then, I | will regard them all as the same. |

| W1:7.9 | experiences? How else would you know whether or not this kind of cup | will break if you drop it? What do you know about this cup except |
| W1:9.1 | you may be able to accept it intellectually, it is unlikely that it | will mean anything to you as yet. However, understanding is not |
| W1:9.2 | that is required for these or any other exercises. Each little step | will clear a little of the darkness away, and understanding will |
| W1:9.2 | step will clear a little of the darkness away, and understanding | will finally come to lighten every corner of the mind which has been |
| W1:10.1 | are not your real thoughts. We have made this distinction before and | will again. You have no basis for comparison as yet. When you do, you |
| W1:10.1 | again. You have no basis for comparison as yet. When you do, you | will have no doubt that what you once believed were your thoughts did |
| W1:10.5 | This idea | will help to release me from all that I now believe. |
| W1:10.9 | This idea | will help to release me from all that I now believe. |
| W1:11.4 | Three practice periods today | will probably be sufficient. However, if there is little or no |
| W1:12.8 | The truth upsets you now, but when your words have been erased, you | will see His. That is the ultimate purpose of these exercises. |
| W1:13.1 | Nothing without meaning exists. However, it does not follow that you | will not think you perceive something that has no meaning. On the |
| W1:13.1 | you perceive something that has no meaning. On the contrary, you | will be particularly likely to think you do perceive it. |
| W1:13.3 | accept it without fear. If you are fearful, it is certain that you | will endow the world with attributes which it does not possess and |
| W1:13.8 | You are not expected to believe the statement at this point and | will probably try to dismiss it as preposterous. Note carefully, |
| W1:13.8 | try not even to think of it except during the exercise periods. That | will suffice at present. |
| W1:14.2 | with today's idea unless you find them comfortable. If you do, it | will be because you really understand what they are for. |
| W1:14.3 | can be quite difficult and even quite painful. Some of them | will lead you directly into fear. You will not be left there. You |

| W1:15.2 | idea to the process of image-making which you call seeing | will not have much meaning for you. You will begin to understand it |
| W1:15.2 | which you call seeing will not have much meaning for you. You | will begin to understand it when you have seen little edges of light |
| W1:15.2 | is the beginning of real vision. You can be certain that real vision | will come quickly when this has occurred. |
| W1:15.3 | of them. They are signs that you are opening your eyes at last. They | will not persist, because they merely symbolize true perception, and |
| W1:15.3 | perception, and they are not related to knowledge. These exercises | will not reveal knowledge to you. But they will prepare the way to it. |
| W1:15.3 | These exercises will not reveal knowledge to you. But they | will prepare the way to it. |
| W1:15.7 | Although you | will obviously not be able to apply the idea to very many things |
| W1:15.7 | try to make the selection as random as possible. Less than a minute | will do for the practice periods, if you begin to feel uneasy. Do not |
| W1:16.2 | or it multiplies illusions. You can indeed multiply nothing, but you | will not extend it by doing so. |
| W1:16.3 | you recognize them all as equally destructive but equally unreal. We | will practice this idea in many forms before you really understand it. |
| W1:16.4 | the search. This is quite difficult until you get used to it. You | will find that it is still hard for you not to make artificial |
| W1:16.9 | you find them relatively effortless. If strain is experienced, three | will be enough. The length of the exercise period should also be |
| W1:18.1 | It also emphasizes the idea that minds are joined, which | will be given increasing stress later. |
| W1:18.2 | see as much as to how you see it. Therefore, the exercises for today | will emphasize this aspect of your perception. The three or four |
| W1:18.7 | A minute or so or even less | will be sufficient. |
| W1:19.1 | obviously the reason why your seeing does not affect you alone. You | will notice that at times the ideas related to thinking precede those |
| W1:19.2 | private thoughts. Despite your initial resistance to this idea, you | will yet understand that it must be true if salvation is possible at |
| W1:19.2 | is possible at all. And salvation must be possible because it is the | Will of God. |
| W1:19.5 | for the practice period should be quite familiar to you by now and | will no longer be repeated each day, although it will occasionally be |
| W1:19.5 | to you by now and will no longer be repeated each day, although it | will occasionally be included as a reminder. Do not forget, however, |
| W1:19.5 | remains essential throughout. Lack of order in this connection | will ultimately make the recognition of lack of order in miracles |
| W1:20.1 | of your thinking. The salvation of the world depends on it. Yet you | will not see if you regard yourself as being coerced and if you give |
| W1:20.2 | fear. You are now learning how to tell them apart. And great indeed | will be your reward. |
| W1:20.3 | not? God has one Son, and he is the resurrection and the life. His | Will is done because all power is given him in Heaven and on earth. |
| W1:20.5 | or event which upsets you. You can see them differently, and you | will. What you desire, you will see. Such is the real law of cause |
| W1:20.5 | You can see them differently, and you will. What you desire, you | will see. Such is the real law of cause and effect as it operates in |
| W1:21.2 | rage. The degree of the emotion you experience does not matter. You | will become increasingly aware that a slight twinge of annoyance is |
| W1:21.3 | and nothing that you believe in this connection means anything. You | will probably be tempted to dwell more on some situations than on |
| W1:22.1 | change how he sees. Otherwise, thoughts of attack and counter-attack | will preoccupy him and people his entire world. What peace of mind is |
| W1:22.4 | I see only the perishable. I see nothing that | will last. What I see is not real. What I see is a form of vengeance. |
| W1:23.1 | The idea for today contains the only way out of fear that | will ever succeed. Nothing else will work; everything else is |
| W1:23.1 | the only way out of fear that will ever succeed. Nothing else | will work; everything else is meaningless. But this way cannot fail. |
| W1:23.2 | about the world. Here you are changing the cause. The effects | will change automatically. |
| W1:23.4 | now. Loveliness can light your images and so transform them that you | will love them even though they were made of hate. For you will not |
| W1:23.4 | that you will love them even though they were made of hate. For you | will not be making them alone. |
| W1:23.5 | have already been replaced. By taking the first two steps, you | will see that this is so. |
| W1:23.9 | that thoughts of attack and of being attacked are not different, you | will be ready to let the cause go. |
| W1:24.1 | and that perception is wrong. It is inevitable, then, that you | will not serve your own best interests. Yet they are your only goal |
| W1:24.1 | goal in any situation which is correctly perceived. Otherwise, you | will not recognize what they are. |
| W1:24.3 | each of the five practice periods which should be undertaken today, | will be more helpful than a more cursory examination of a large |
| W1:24.4 | The emphasis should be on uncovering the outcome you want. You | will quickly realize that you have a number of goals in mind as part |
| W1:24.8 | If these exercises are done properly, you | will quickly recognize that you are making a large number of demands |
| W1:24.8 | of demands of the situation which have nothing to do with it. You | will also recognize that many of your goals are contradictory, that |
| W1:25.2 | As a result, you are bound to misuse it. When you believe this, you | will try to withdraw the goals you have assigned to the world instead |
| W1:26.1 | through you must also have effects on you. It is this law that | will ultimately save you. But you are misusing it now. You must |
| W1:26.2 | Because your attack thoughts | will be projected, you will fear attack. And if you fear attack, you |
| W1:26.2 | Because your attack thoughts will be projected, you | will fear attack. And if you fear attack, you must believe that you |
| W1:26.4 | Practice with today's idea | will help you to understand that vulnerability or invulnerability is |
| W1:26.6 | to recur in your thoughts during the day is a suitable subject. You | will not be able to use very many for any one practice period, |
| W1:26.10 | I am afraid ______ | will happen. |
| W1:26.12 | As the list of anticipated outcomes for each situation continues, you | will probably find some of them, especially those which occur to you |
| W1:27.1 | The purpose of today's exercises is to bring the time when the idea | will be wholly true a little nearer. |
| W1:27.6 | afterwards and attempt to adhere to it throughout the day. It | will not be difficult to do this, even if you are engaged in |
| W1:27.7 | The real question is how often | will you remember? How much do you want today's idea to be true? |
| W1:27.7 | Answer one of these questions, and you have answered the other. You | will probably miss several applications and perhaps quite a number. |
| W1:28.1 | to the idea for yesterday. In these practice periods, you | will be making a series of definite commitments. The question of |
| W1:28.1 | making a series of definite commitments. The question of whether you | will keep them in the future is not our concern here. If you are |
| W1:28.2 | You either see or not. When you have seen one thing differently, you | will see all things differently. The light you will see in any one of |
| W1:28.2 | differently, you will see all things differently. The light you | will see in any one of them is the same light you will see in them |
| W1:28.2 | The light you will see in any one of them is the same light you | will see in them all. |
| W1:28.4 | You | will not question what we have already defined. And the purpose of |
| W1:28.6 | are therefore really asking to see the purpose of the universe. You | will be making this same request of each subject which you use in the |
| W1:28.7 | We | will have six two minute practice periods today in which the idea for |
| W1:29.2 | You | will probably find this idea very difficult to grasp at this point. |
| W1:29.3 | When vision has shown you the holiness that lights up the world, you | will understand today's idea perfectly. And you will not understand |
| W1:29.3 | up the world, you will understand today's idea perfectly. And you | will not understand how you could ever have found it difficult. |
| W1:30.1 | The idea for today is the springboard for vision. From this idea | will the world open up before you, and you will look upon it and see |
| W1:30.1 | vision. From this idea will the world open up before you, and you | will look upon it and see in it what you have never seen before. Nor |
| W1:30.1 | will look upon it and see in it what you have never seen before. Nor | will what you saw before be even faintly visible to you. |
| W1:31.1 | see without and the world you see within. In applying the idea, we | will use a form of practice which will be used more and more, with |
| W1:31.1 | within. In applying the idea, we will use a form of practice which | will be used more and more, with changes as indicated. Generally |
| W1:31.2 | close your eyes and apply the same idea to your inner world. You | will escape from both together, for the inner is the cause of the |
| W1:31.5 | a response to any form of temptation. It is a declaration that you | will not yield to it and put yourself in bondage. |
| W1:32.1 | you invented it. You can give it up as easily as you made it up. You | will see it or not see it, as you wish. While you want it, you will |
| W1:32.1 | You will see it or not see it, as you wish. While you want it, you | will see it; when you no longer want it, it will not be there for you |
| W1:32.1 | While you want it, you will see it; when you no longer want it, it | will not be there for you to see. |
| W1:32.2 | since you see them as different, the practice periods for today | will again include two phases, one involving the world you see |
| W1:32.3 | Again we | will begin the practice periods for the morning and evening by |
| W1:33.5 | and repeat the idea to yourself several times. Closing your eyes | will probably help in this form of application. |
| W1:34.7 | them to repeating the idea until you feel some sense of relief. It | will help you if you tell yourself specifically: |
| W1:35.1 | the way you see yourself now. It does, however, describe what vision | will show you. It is difficult for anyone who thinks he is in this |
| W1:35.2 | You | will believe that you are part of where you think you are. That is |
| W1:35.3 | Identity, and it describes you as you must really be in truth. We | will use a somewhat different kind of application for today's idea |
| W1:35.5 | In the earlier part of the mind searching period, you | will probably emphasize what you consider to be the more negative |
| W1:35.8 | You should not think of these terms in an abstract way. They | will occur to you as various situations, personalities and events in |
| W1:35.10 | During the longer exercise periods, there | will probably be intervals in which nothing specific occurs to you. |
| W1:37.2 | can be removed from the world's thinking. Any other way of seeing | will inevitably demand payment of someone or something. As a result, |
| W1:37.2 | demand payment of someone or something. As a result, the perceiver | will lose. Nor will he have any idea why he is losing. Yet is his |
| W1:37.2 | of someone or something. As a result, the perceiver will lose. Nor | will he have any idea why he is losing. Yet is his wholeness restored |
| W1:38.3 | In today's exercises, we | will apply the power of your holiness to all problems, difficulties, |
| W1:38.3 | any form that you happen to think of in yourself or someone else. We | will make no distinctions because there are no distinctions. |
| W1:39.3 | must be saved. How else can he teach salvation? Today's exercises | will apply to you alone, recognizing that your salvation is crucial |
| W1:39.4 | answer to every question that was ever asked, is being asked now, or | will be asked in the future. Your holiness means the end of guilt and |
| W1:39.7 | that you see them differently. And it is your blessing on them that | will save you and give you vision. |
| W1:39.10 | of anything. Sustained concentration is very difficult at first. It | will become much easier as your mind becomes more disciplined and |
| W1:40.1 | Today we | will begin to assert some of the happy things to which you are |
| W1:40.2 | You need not close your eyes for the exercise periods, although you | will probably find it more helpful if you do. However, you may be in |
| W1:40.7 | merely telling yourself that you are blessed as a Son of God | will do. |
| W1:41.1 | Today's idea | will eventually overcome completely the sense of loneliness and |
| W1:41.2 | ready to radiate through you and out into the whole world. It | will cure all sorrow and pain and fear and loss because it will heal |
| W1:41.2 | world. It will cure all sorrow and pain and fear and loss because it | will heal the mind that thought these things were real and suffered |
| W1:41.4 | dense and obscuring, yet representing all you see? Today we | will make our first real attempt to get past this dark and heavy |
| W1:41.5 | There | will be only one long practice period today. In the morning, as soon |
| W1:41.7 | might even say it is the only natural thing in the world. The way | will open if you believe that it is possible. This exercise can bring |
| W1:41.7 | it is attempted. And sooner or later, it is always successful. We | will go into more detail in connection with this kind of practice as |
| W1:41.7 | in connection with this kind of practice as we go along. But it | will never fail completely, and instant success is possible. |
| W1:42.1 | cannot fail in your efforts to achieve the goal of the course. You | will see because it is the Will of God. It is His strength, not your |
| W1:42.1 | to achieve the goal of the course. You will see because it is the | Will of God. It is His strength, not your own, that gives you power. |
| W1:42.3 | We | will have two three- to five-minute longer exercise periods today, |
| W1:42.10 | The more often you repeat the idea during the day, the more often you | will be reminding yourself that the goal of the course is important |
| W1:43.1 | knowledge forever in your minds. With this link with God, perception | will become so changed and purified that it will lead to knowledge. |
| W1:43.1 | with God, perception will become so changed and purified that it | will lead to knowledge. That is its function as the Holy Spirit sees |
| W1:44.3 | we are going to attempt to reach that light. For this purpose, we | will use a form of practice which has been suggested before and which |
| W1:44.3 | use a form of practice which has been suggested before and which we | will utilize increasingly. It is a particularly difficult form for |
| W1:44.4 | by with little or no sense of strain. The form of exercise we | will use today is the most natural and easy one in the world for the |
| W1:44.5 | untrained. You are quite ready to learn the form of exercise we | will use today, but you may find that you will encounter strong |
| W1:44.5 | the form of exercise we will use today, but you may find that you | will encounter strong resistance. The reason is very simple. While |
| W1:44.6 | If you can stand aside from the ego by ever so little, you | will have no difficulty in recognizing that its opposition and fears |
| W1:44.9 | your eyes closed unless you are aware of fear. In that case, you | will probably find it more reassuring to open your eyes briefly. Try, |
| W1:45.1 | Nothing that you think you see bears any resemblance to what vision | will show you. |
| W1:45.3 | Where, then, are your real thoughts? Today we | will attempt to reach them. We will have to look for them in your |
| W1:45.3 | are your real thoughts? Today we will attempt to reach them. We | will have to look for them in your mind because that is where they |
| W1:45.4 | Our three five-minute practice periods for today | will take the same general form that we used in applying yesterday's |
| W1:45.4 | the same general form that we used in applying yesterday's idea. We | will attempt to leave the unreal and seek for the real. We will deny |
| W1:45.4 | idea. We will attempt to leave the unreal and seek for the real. We | will deny the world in favor of truth. We will not let the thoughts |
| W1:45.4 | and seek for the real. We will deny the world in favor of truth. We | will not let the thoughts of the world hold us back, and we will not |
| W1:45.4 | We will not let the thoughts of the world hold us back, and we | will not let the beliefs of the world tell us that what God would |
| W1:45.5 | Instead, we | will try to recognize that only what God would have us do is |
| W1:45.5 | try to recognize that only what God would have us do is possible. We | will also try to understand that only what God would have us do is |
| W1:45.5 | that only what God would have us do is what we want to do. And we | will also try to remember that we cannot fail in doing what He would |
| W1:45.5 | would have us do. There is every reason to feel confident that you | will succeed today. It is the Will of God. |
| W1:45.5 | reason to feel confident that you will succeed today. It is the | Will of God. |
| W1:45.9 | They are there in your mind now, completely unchanged. They | will always be in your mind, exactly as they always were. |
| W1:45.10 | Everything that you have thought since then | will change, but the foundation on which they rest is wholly |
| W1:45.11 | and God the Son. For such is the place you are trying to reach. You | will probably be unable as yet to realize how high you are trying to |
| W1:46.13 | however, to make more specific applications if they are needed. They | will be needed at any time during the day when you become aware of |
| W1:47.1 | you the recognition of the right solution and the guarantee that it | will be accomplished? |
| W1:47.4 | Today we | will try to reach past your own weakness to the Source of real |
| W1:47.6 | the situation successfully. It is not by trusting yourself that you | will gain confidence. But the strength of God in you is successful in |
| W1:47.8 | try to reach down into your mind to a place of real safety. You | will recognize that you have reached it if you feel a sense of deep |
| W1:48.2 | Today's practice periods | will be very short, very simple, and very frequent. Merely repeat the |
| W1:49.3 | We | will need at least four five-minute practice periods today and more |
| W1:49.3 | four five-minute practice periods today and more if possible. We | will try actually to hear the Voice reminding you of God and of your |
| W1:49.3 | actually to hear the Voice reminding you of God and of your Self. We | will approach this happiest and holiest of thoughts with confidence, |
| W1:49.3 | with confidence, knowing that in doing so we are joining our | will with the Will of God. He wants you to hear His Voice. He gave It |
| W1:49.3 | knowing that in doing so we are joining our will with the | Will of God. He wants you to hear His Voice. He gave It to you to be |
| W1:50.2 | Do not put your faith in the worthless. It | will not sustain you. Only the Love of God will protect you in all |
| W1:50.2 | in the worthless. It will not sustain you. Only the Love of God | will protect you in all circumstances. It will lift you out of every |
| W1:50.2 | you. Only the Love of God will protect you in all circumstances. It | will lift you out of every trial and raise you high above all the |
| W1:50.2 | dangers of this world into a climate of perfect peace and safety. It | will transport you into a state of mind which nothing can threaten, |
| W1:50.3 | Put not your faith in illusions. They | will fail you. Put all your faith in the Love of God within you, |
| W1:R1.1 | Beginning with today, we | will have a series of review periods. Each of them will cover five of |
| W1:R1.1 | with today, we will have a series of review periods. Each of them | will cover five of the ideas already presented, starting with the |
| W1:R1.1 | starting with the first and ending with the fiftieth. There | will be a few short comments after each of the ideas, which you |
| W1:R1.4 | is emphasized particularly for reviews at your stage of learning. It | will be necessary, however, that you learn to require no special |
| W1:R1.4 | no special settings in which to apply what you have learned. You | will need it most in situations which appear to be upsetting, rather |
| W1:R1.5 | by avoiding them and seeking a haven of isolation for yourself. You | will yet learn that peace is part of you and requires only that you |
| W1:R1.5 | be there to embrace any situation in which you are. And finally you | will learn that there is no limit to where you are, so that your |
| W1:R1.6 | You | will note that for review purposes the ideas are not always given in |
| W1:52.3 | my “enemies.” When I have forgiven myself and remembered who I am, I | will bless everyone and everything I see. There will be no past and |
| W1:52.3 | who I am, I will bless everyone and everything I see. There | will be no past and therefore no “enemies.” And I will look with love |
| W1:52.3 | I see. There will be no past and therefore no “enemies.” And I | will look with love on all that I failed to see before. |
| W1:53.1 | Today we | will review the following: |
| W1:53.4 | this belief and place my trust in reality. In choosing this, I | will escape all the effects of the world of fear because I am |
| W1:53.6 | images I have made cannot prevail against Him because it is not my | will that they do so. My will is His, and I will place no other gods |
| W1:53.6 | prevail against Him because it is not my will that they do so. My | will is His, and I will place no other gods before Him. |
| W1:53.6 | Him because it is not my will that they do so. My will is His, and I | will place no other gods before Him. |
| W1:54.2 | thoughts are impossible, because all thoughts have power. They | will either make a false world or lead me to the real one. But |
| W1:54.2 | effects. As the world I see arises from my thinking errors, so | will the real world rise before my eyes as I let my errors be |
| W1:54.4 | the real thoughts in them. And the world my real thoughts show me | will dawn on their sight as well as mine. |
| W1:54.6 | loss. I would look upon the real world, and let it teach me that my | will and the Will of God are one. |
| W1:54.6 | look upon the real world, and let it teach me that my will and the | Will of God are one. |
| W1:55.3 | attack thoughts which give rise to this picture. My loving thoughts | will save me from this perception of the world and give me the peace |
| W1:55.4 | of attack. As forgiveness allows love to return to my awareness, I | will see a world of peace and safety and joy. It is this I choose to |
| W1:56.2 | But God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My own real thoughts | will teach me what it is. |
| W1:56.3 | I let this image of myself go. As it is replaced by truth, vision | will surely be given me. And with this vision, I will look upon the |
| W1:56.3 | by truth, vision will surely be given me. And with this vision, I | will look upon the world and upon myself with charity and love. |
| W1:56.5 | love, its light remains undimmed. Beyond all my insane wishes is my | will united with the Will of my Father. God is still everywhere and |
| W1:56.5 | undimmed. Beyond all my insane wishes is my will united with the | Will of my Father. God is still everywhere and in everything forever. |
| W1:56.5 | everywhere and in everything forever. And we who are part of Him | will yet look past all appearances and recognize the truth beyond |
| W1:57.5 | peace instead of this. When I see the world as a place of freedom, I | will realize that it reflects the laws of God instead of the rules |
| W1:57.5 | laws of God instead of the rules which I made up for it to obey. I | will understand that peace, not war, abides in it. And I will |
| W1:57.5 | to obey. I will understand that peace, not war, abides in it. And I | will perceive that peace also abides in the hearts of all who share |
| W1:59.4 | see what God wants me to see. I cannot see anything else. Beyond His | Will lie only illusions. It is these I choose when I think I can see |
| W1:59.5 | Light in which I see. Let me welcome vision and the happy world it | will show me. |
| W1:60.2 | see nothing to forgive. Yet forgiveness is the means by which I | will recognize my innocence. It is the reflection of God's Love on |
| W1:60.2 | my innocence. It is the reflection of God's Love on earth. It | will bring me near enough to Heaven that the Love of God can reach |
| W1:60.4 | [48] There is nothing to fear. How safe the world | will look to me when I can see it! It will not look anything like |
| W1:60.4 | to fear. How safe the world will look to me when I can see it! It | will not look anything like what I imagine I see now. Everyone and |
| W1:60.4 | like what I imagine I see now. Everyone and everything I see | will lean toward me to bless me. I will recognize in everyone my |
| W1:60.4 | Everyone and everything I see will lean toward me to bless me. I | will recognize in everyone my dearest Friend. What could there be to |
| W1:61.4 | You | will want to think about this idea as often as possible today. It is |
| W1:61.8 | sure both to begin and end the day with a practice period. Thus you | will awaken with an acknowledgment of the truth about yourself, |
| W1:61.9 | obviously necessary. This is the first of a number of giant steps we | will take in the next few weeks. Try today to begin to build a firm |
| W1:62.1 | It is your forgiveness that | will bring the world of darkness to the light. It is your forgiveness |
| W1:62.3 | Christ in you. Do you not then begin to understand what forgiveness | will do for you? It will remove all sense of weakness, strain, and |
| W1:62.3 | not then begin to understand what forgiveness will do for you? It | will remove all sense of weakness, strain, and fatigue from your |
| W1:62.3 | remove all sense of weakness, strain, and fatigue from your mind. It | will take away all fear and guilt and pain. It will restore the |
| W1:62.3 | from your mind. It will take away all fear and guilt and pain. It | will restore the invulnerability and power God gave His Son to your |
| W1:62.4 | idea and to use it as frequently as possible throughout the day. It | will help to make the day as happy for you as God wants you to be. |
| W1:62.4 | help to make the day as happy for you as God wants you to be. And it | will help those around you as well as those who seem to be far away |
| W1:62.7 | or two to considering your function and the happiness and release it | will bring you. |
| W1:62.8 | Let related thoughts come freely, for your heart | will recognize these words, and in your mind is the awareness that |
| W1:63.2 | Accept no trivial purpose or meaningless desire in its place or you | will forget your function and leave the Son of God in hell. This is |
| W1:63.3 | Recognizing the importance of this function, we | will be happy to remember it very often today. We will begin the day |
| W1:63.3 | this function, we will be happy to remember it very often today. We | will begin the day by acknowledging it and close the day with the |
| W1:63.3 | with the thought of it in our awareness. And throughout the day, we | will repeat this as often as we can: |
| W1:63.5 | If you can close your eyes, you | will probably find it easier to let related thoughts come to you in |
| W1:64.4 | Son of God is you. Only by fulfilling the function given you by God | will you be happy. That is because your function is to be happy by |
| W1:64.6 | Prepare yourself in advance for all the decisions you | will make today by remembering that they are really very simple. Each |
| W1:64.6 | make today by remembering that they are really very simple. Each one | will lead to happiness or unhappiness. Can such a simple decision |
| W1:64.9 | 15 minutes to reflecting on this with closed eyes. Related thoughts | will come to help you if you remember the crucial importance of your |
| W1:64.10 | and then to thinking about them and about nothing else. This | will be difficult at first particularly, since you are not proficient |
| W1:65.4 | time for God, as well as for all the trivial purposes and goals you | will pursue. This is part of the long range disciplinary training |
| W1:65.8 | After a while, interfering thoughts | will become harder to find. Try, however, to continue a minute or so |
| W1:65.11 | trying to focus on its importance to you, the relief its acceptance | will bring you by resolving your conflicts once and for all, and the |
| W1:65.14 | keep them open and look about you. It is what you see now that | will be totally changed when you accept today's idea completely. |
| W1:66.3 | Today we | will try to go past this wholly meaningless battle and arrive at the |
| W1:66.3 | meaningless battle and arrive at the truth about your function. We | will not engage in ceaseless arguments about what it is. We will not |
| W1:66.3 | We will not engage in ceaseless arguments about what it is. We | will not become hopelessly involved in defining happiness and |
| W1:66.3 | in defining happiness and determining the means for achieving it. We | will not indulge the ego by listening to its attacks on truth. We |
| W1:66.3 | We will not indulge the ego by listening to its attacks on truth. We | will merely be glad that we can find out what truth is. |
| W1:66.12 | Yet the ego is the only alternative to the Holy Spirit's Voice. You | will listen to madness or hear the truth. Try to make this choice as |
| W1:66.16 | It | will not take more than a minute, and probably less, to repeat these |
| W1:67.2 | We | will make every effort today to reach this truth about you and to |
| W1:67.2 | a moment, that it is the truth. In the longer practice period, we | will think about your reality and its wholly unchanged and |
| W1:67.2 | your reality and its wholly unchanged and unchangeable nature. We | will begin by repeating this truth about you and then spend a few |
| W1:67.6 | other thoughts related to the truth about yourself. Yet perhaps you | will succeed in going past that and through the interval of |
| W1:67.6 | you recognize yourself as Love created you. Be confident that you | will do much today to bring that awareness nearer, whether you feel |
| W1:67.7 | It | will be particularly helpful today to practice the idea for today as |
| W1:68.4 | It is as sure that those who hold grievances | will redefine God in their own image as it is certain that God |
| W1:68.4 | them as part of Him. It is as sure that those who hold grievances | will suffer guilt as it is certain that those who forgive will find |
| W1:68.4 | grievances will suffer guilt as it is certain that those who forgive | will find peace. It is as sure that those who hold grievances will |
| W1:68.4 | will find peace. It is as sure that those who hold grievances | will forget who they are as it is certain that those who forgive will |
| W1:68.4 | will forget who they are as it is certain that those who forgive | will remember. Would you not be willing to relinquish your grievances |
| W1:68.5 | go. That, however, is simply a question of motivation. Today we | will try to find out how you would feel without them. If you succeed |
| W1:68.5 | feel without them. If you succeed even by ever so little, there | will never be a problem in motivation ever again. |
| W1:68.6 | whom you hold what you regard as major grievances. Some of these | will be quite easy to find. Then think of the seemingly minor |
| W1:68.6 | you hold against those you like and even think you love. It | will quickly become apparent that there is no one against whom you do |
| W1:68.10 | Love holds no grievances. When I let all my grievances go, I | will know I am perfectly safe. |
| W1:69.5 | which you would be really convinced of their lack of substance. We | will make this attempt today. |
| W1:69.7 | If you are doing the exercises properly, you | will begin to feel a sense of being lifted up and carried ahead. Your |
| W1:69.7 | call on the power of the universe to help you, and God Himself | will raise you from darkness into light. You are in accord with His |
| W1:69.7 | will raise you from darkness into light. You are in accord with His | Will. You cannot fail because your will is His. |
| W1:69.7 | light. You are in accord with His Will. You cannot fail because your | will is His. |
| W1:69.8 | answer yet, but you can indeed be sure that it is given you, and you | will yet receive it. Try, as you attempt to go through the clouds to |
| W1:69.8 | in your mind. Try to remember that you are at last joining your | will to God's. Try to keep the thought clearly in mind that what you |
| W1:69.8 | Then let the power of God work in you and through you, that His | Will and yours may be done. |
| W1:69.9 | In the shorter practice periods, which you | will want to do as often as possible in view of the importance of |
| W1:69.12 | If I hold this grievance, the light of the world | will be hidden from me, |
| W1:70.5 | was to ensure that it did. Today we practice realizing that God's | Will and ours are really the same in this. |
| W1:70.7 | periods today, each of which should last some ten to 15 minutes. We | will, however, still let you decide when to undertake them. We will |
| W1:70.7 | We will, however, still let you decide when to undertake them. We | will follow this practice for a number of lessons, and it would again |
| W1:70.12 | Now we | will try again to reach the light in you, which is where your |
| W1:70.12 | It is past the clouds and in the light beyond. Remember that you | will have to go through the clouds before you can reach the light. |
| W1:70.13 | think of me holding your hand and leading you. And I assure you this | will be no idle fantasy. |
| W1:71.1 | after we have considered just what the ego's plan is, perhaps you | will realize that, however preposterous it may be, you do believe it. |
| W1:71.4 | any perceived source of salvation is acceptable, provided that it | will not work. This ensures that the fruitless search will continue, |
| W1:71.4 | that it will not work. This ensures that the fruitless search | will continue, for the illusion persists that, although this hope has |
| W1:71.4 | grounds for hope in other places and in other things. Another person | will yet serve better; another situation will yet offer success. |
| W1:71.4 | things. Another person will yet serve better; another situation | will yet offer success. |
| W1:71.5 | but do not find.” For what could more surely guarantee that you | will not find salvation than to channelize all your efforts in |
| W1:71.6 | where it is. But if you are to succeed, as God promises you | will, you must be willing to seek there only. Otherwise your purpose |
| W1:71.6 | to seek there only. Otherwise your purpose is divided, and you | will attempt to follow two plans for salvation which are |
| W1:71.7 | The idea for today is the answer. Only God's plan for salvation | will work. There can be no real conflict about this, because there is |
| W1:71.7 | this, because there is no possible alternative to God's plan that | will save you. His is the only plan that is certain in its outcome. |
| W1:71.9 | equal contribution to the whole. God's plan for your salvation | will work, and other plans will not. Do not allow yourself to become |
| W1:71.9 | the whole. God's plan for your salvation will work, and other plans | will not. Do not allow yourself to become depressed or angry at the |
| W1:71.9 | free yourself. They have led to depression and anger. But God's plan | will succeed. It will lead to release and joy. |
| W1:71.9 | have led to depression and anger. But God's plan will succeed. It | will lead to release and joy. |
| W1:71.12 | you what needs to be done by you in His plan for your salvation. He | will answer you in proportion to your willingness to hear His Voice. |
| W1:71.13 | tell yourself often that God's plan for salvation, and only His, | will work. Be alert to all temptation to hold grievances today, and |
| W1:71.14 | is the opposite of God's plan for salvation. And only His plan | will work. |
| W1:72.9 | We | will try today to stop these senseless attacks on salvation. We will |
| W1:72.9 | We will try today to stop these senseless attacks on salvation. We | will try to welcome it instead. Your upside-down perception has been |
| W1:72.13 | Then we | will wait in quiet for His answer. |
| W1:72.14 | see and hear and learn. “What is salvation, Father?” Ask and you | will be answered. Seek and you will find. |
| W1:72.14 | is salvation, Father?” Ask and you will be answered. Seek and you | will find. |
| W1:72.15 | it. We are asking it of truth. Be certain, then, that the answer | will be true because of Whom you ask. Whenever you feel your |
| W1:72.17 | He | will answer. Be determined to hear. |
| W1:72.18 | One or perhaps two shorter practice periods an hour | will be enough for today since they will be somewhat longer than |
| W1:72.18 | shorter practice periods an hour will be enough for today since they | will be somewhat longer than usual. These exercises begin with this: |
| W1:73.1 | Today we are considering the | will you share with God. This is not the same as the ego's idle |
| W1:73.1 | ego's idle wishes, out of which darkness and nothingness arise. The | will you share with God has all the power of creation in it. The |
| W1:73.3 | Your | will is lost to you in this strange bartering, in which guilt is |
| W1:73.3 | with each exchange. Can such a world have been created by the | will the Son of God shares with his Father? Did God create disaster |
| W1:73.3 | his Father? Did God create disaster for His Son? Creation is the | will of Both together. Would God create a world that kills Himself? |
| W1:73.4 | Today we | will try once more to reach the world that is in accordance with your |
| W1:73.4 | try once more to reach the world that is in accordance with your | will. The light is in it because it does not oppose the Will of God. |
| W1:73.4 | with your will. The light is in it because it does not oppose the | Will of God. It is not Heaven, but the light of Heaven shines on it. |
| W1:73.5 | Yet the light which shines upon this world reflects your | will, and so it must be in you that we will look for it. Your picture |
| W1:73.5 | upon this world reflects your will, and so it must be in you that we | will look for it. Your picture of the world can only mirror what is |
| W1:73.5 | on a darkened world. Forgiveness lifts the darkness, reasserts your | will, and lets you look upon a world of light. |
| W1:73.7 | is not happiness, and it is happiness you really want. Such is your | will in truth. And so salvation is your will as well. You want to |
| W1:73.7 | really want. Such is your will in truth. And so salvation is your | will as well. You want to succeed in what we are trying to do today. |
| W1:73.8 | We | will succeed today if you remember that you will salvation for |
| W1:73.8 | We will succeed today if you remember that you | will salvation for yourself. You will to accept God's plan because |
| W1:73.8 | today if you remember that you will salvation for yourself. You | will to accept God's plan because you share in it. You have no will |
| W1:73.8 | You will to accept God's plan because you share in it. You have no | will that can really oppose it, and you do not want to do so. |
| W1:73.9 | Today it is the ego which stands powerless before your | will. Your will is free, and nothing can prevail against it. |
| W1:73.9 | Today it is the ego which stands powerless before your will. Your | will is free, and nothing can prevail against it. Therefore we |
| W1:73.9 | the exercises for today in happy confidence, certain that we | will find what it is your will to find and remember what it is your |
| W1:73.9 | today in happy confidence, certain that we will find what it is your | will to find and remember what it is your will to remember. No idle |
| W1:73.9 | will find what it is your will to find and remember what it is your | will to remember. No idle wishes can detain us nor deceive us with an |
| W1:73.9 | us nor deceive us with an illusion of strength. Today let your | will be done. And end forever the insane belief that it is hell in |
| W1:73.10 | We | will begin our longer practice periods with the recognition that |
| W1:73.10 | plan for salvation, and only His, is wholly in accord with your | will. It is not the purpose of an alien power, thrust upon you |
| W1:73.11 | You | will succeed today, the time appointed for the release of the Son of |
| W1:73.11 | release of the Son of God from hell and from all idle wishes. His | will is now restored to his awareness. He is willing this very day to |
| W1:73.12 | After reminding yourself of this and determining to keep your | will clearly in mind, tell yourself with gentle firmness and quiet |
| W1:73.13 | I | will there be light. Let me behold the light that reflects God's Will |
| W1:73.13 | I will there be light. Let me behold the light that reflects God's | Will and mine. |
| W1:73.14 | Then let your | will assert itself, joined with the power of God and united with your |
| W1:73.16 | I | will there be light. Darkness is not my will. |
| W1:73.16 | I will there be light. Darkness is not my | will. |
| W1:73.17 | immediately you are tempted to hold a grievance of any kind. This | will help you let your grievances go instead of cherishing them and |
| W1:74.1 | toward which all our exercises are directed. God's is the only | will. When you have recognized this, you have recognized that your |
| W1:74.1 | will. When you have recognized this, you have recognized that your | will is His. The belief that conflict is possible has gone. Peace has |
| W1:74.1 | idea that you are torn by conflicting goals. As an expression of the | Will of God, you have no goal but His. |
| W1:74.4 | There is no | will but God's. I cannot be in conflict. |
| W1:74.6 | I am at peace. Nothing can disturb me. My | will is God's My will and God's are one. God wills peace for His Son. |
| W1:74.6 | I am at peace. Nothing can disturb me. My will is God's My | will and God's are one. God wills peace for His Son. |
| W1:74.8 | There is no | will but God's. These conflict thoughts are meaningless. |
| W1:74.10 | There is no | will but God's. I share it with Him. My conflicts about _____ cannot |
| W1:74.11 | but the difference is easily detected. If you are succeeding, you | will feel a deep sense of joy and an increased alertness rather than |
| W1:74.11 | and enervation. Joy characterizes peace. By this experience | will you recognize that you have reached it. |
| W1:74.14 | There is no | will but God's. I seek His peace today. |
| W1:75.3 | Our exercises for today | will be happy ones in which we offer thanks for the passing of the |
| W1:75.3 | darken our sight and hide the world forgiveness offers us. Today we | will accept the new world as what we want to see. We will be given |
| W1:75.3 | us. Today we will accept the new world as what we want to see. We | will be given what we desire. We will to see the light; the light has |
| W1:75.3 | world as what we want to see. We will be given what we desire. We | will to see the light; the light has come. |
| W1:75.4 | Our longer practice periods | will be devoted to looking at the world which our forgiveness shows |
| W1:75.9 | never fails to give the gift of sight to the forgiving. Believe He | will not fail you now. You have forgiven the world. He will be with |
| W1:75.9 | Believe He will not fail you now. You have forgiven the world. He | will be with you as you watch and wait. He will show you what true |
| W1:75.9 | forgiven the world. He will be with you as you watch and wait. He | will show you what true vision sees. It is His Will, and you have |
| W1:75.9 | watch and wait. He will show you what true vision sees. It is His | Will, and you have joined with Him. Wait patiently for Him. He will |
| W1:75.9 | His Will, and you have joined with Him. Wait patiently for Him. He | will be there. The light has come. You have forgiven the world. |
| W1:75.10 | to look upon the world He promised you. From this time forth you | will see differently. Today the light has come. And you will see the |
| W1:75.10 | forth you will see differently. Today the light has come. And you | will see the world that has been promised you since time began, and |
| W1:75.11 | The shorter practice periods, too, | will be joyful reminders of your release. Remind yourself every |
| W1:75.11 | past upon your eyes, you cannot fail to see today. And what you see | will be so welcome that you will gladly extend today forever. Say, |
| W1:75.11 | fail to see today. And what you see will be so welcome that you | will gladly extend today forever. Say, then: |
| W1:76.2 | Today we | will be glad you cannot prove it. For if you could, you would forever |
| W1:76.2 | is salvation. Look for it where it waits for you, and there it | will be found. Look nowhere else, for it is nowhere else. |
| W1:76.3 | or some fluid pushed into your veins through a sharpened needle | will ward off death. You really think you are alone unless another |
| W1:76.4 | of medicine, of economics, and of health. Protect the body, and you | will be saved. |
| W1:76.5 | by the mind that hurts itself. The body suffers that the mind | will fail to see it is the victim of itself. The body's suffering is |
| W1:76.6 | it applies to everything that you have made in opposition to His | Will. Your magic has no meaning. What it is meant to save does not |
| W1:76.6 | it is meant to save does not exist. Only what it is meant to hide | will save you. |
| W1:76.7 | The laws of God can never be replaced. We | will devote today to rejoicing that this is so. It is no longer a |
| W1:76.8 | We | will begin the longer practice period today with a short review of |
| W1:76.10 | silent readiness to hear the Voice that speaks the truth to you. You | will be listening to One Who says there is no loss under the laws of |
| W1:76.11 | upheld the world you thought you saw. Then listen further. He | will tell you more. About the love your Father has for you. About the |
| W1:76.12 | Let us today open God's channels to Him and let His | Will extend through us to Him. Thus is creation endlessly increased. |
| W1:76.12 | through us to Him. Thus is creation endlessly increased. His Voice | will speak of this to us, as well as of the joys of Heaven which His |
| W1:76.12 | as of the joys of Heaven which His laws keep limitless forever. We | will repeat today's idea until we have listened and understood there |
| W1:76.12 | we have listened and understood there are no laws but God's. Then we | will tell ourselves as a dedication with which the practice period |
| W1:76.14 | We | will repeat this dedication as often as possible today—at least |
| W1:77.1 | You are entitled to miracles because of what you are. You | will receive miracles because of what God is. And you will offer |
| W1:77.1 | you are. You will receive miracles because of what God is. And you | will offer miracles because you are one with God. Again, how simple |
| W1:77.1 | It is merely a statement of your true Identity. It is this that we | will celebrate today. |
| W1:77.3 | Today we | will claim the miracles which are your right since they belong to |
| W1:77.3 | We ask no more than what belongs to us in truth. Today, however, we | will also make sure that we will not content ourselves with less. |
| W1:77.3 | to us in truth. Today, however, we will also make sure that we | will not content ourselves with less. |
| W1:77.5 | You cannot fail to be assured in this. You are but asking that the | Will of God be done. In doing this, you do not really ask for |
| W1:77.6 | at last. The answer is a simple statement of a simple fact. You | will receive the assurance that you seek. |
| W1:77.7 | Our shorter practice periods | will be frequent and will also be devoted to a reminder of a simple |
| W1:77.7 | Our shorter practice periods will be frequent and | will also be devoted to a reminder of a simple fact. Tell yourself |
| W1:77.9 | them whenever a situation arises in which they are called for. You | will recognize these situations; you are not relying on yourself to |
| W1:77.11 | I | will not trade miracles for grievances. I want only what belongs to |
| W1:78.1 | it would conceal. And as you raise it up before your eyes, you | will not see the miracle beyond. Yet all the while it waits for you |
| W1:78.2 | we go beyond the grievances to look upon the miracle instead. We | will reverse the way you see by not allowing sight to stop before it |
| W1:78.2 | the way you see by not allowing sight to stop before it sees. We | will not wait before the shield of hate, but lay it down and gently |
| W1:78.3 | He waits for you behind your grievances, and as you lay them down, he | will appear in shining light where each one stood before. For every |
| W1:78.4 | Today we | will attempt to see God's Son. We will not let ourselves be blind to |
| W1:78.4 | Today we will attempt to see God's Son. We | will not let ourselves be blind to him; we will not look upon our |
| W1:78.4 | to see God's Son. We will not let ourselves be blind to him; we | will not look upon our grievances. So is the seeing of the world |
| W1:78.5 | We | will select one person you have used as target for your grievances |
| W1:78.6 | know the one to choose; his name has crossed your mind already. He | will be the one of whom we ask God's Son be shown to us. Through |
| W1:78.6 | seeing him behind the grievances that we have held against him, you | will learn that what lay hidden while you saw him not is there in |
| W1:78.7 | Our longer practice periods today | will see him in this role. We will attempt to hold him in our mind, |
| W1:78.7 | Our longer practice periods today will see him in this role. We | will attempt to hold him in our mind, first as you now consider him. |
| W1:78.7 | attempt to hold him in our mind, first as you now consider him. We | will review his faults, the difficulties you have had with him, the |
| W1:78.7 | his neglect, and all the little and the larger hurts he gave. We | will regard his body with its flaws and better points as well, and we |
| W1:78.7 | regard his body with its flaws and better points as well, and we | will think of his mistakes and even of his “sins.” |
| W1:78.10 | you, seeing no separation in God's Son. And what you see through Him | will free you both. |
| W1:78.12 | We | will remember this throughout the day and take the role assigned to |
| W1:79.1 | you do not know what it is. Even if it is really solved already, you | will still have the problem because you cannot recognize that it has |
| W1:79.7 | In our longer practice periods today, we | will ask what the problem is and what is the answer to it. We will |
| W1:79.7 | we will ask what the problem is and what is the answer to it. We | will not assume that we already know. We will try to free our minds |
| W1:79.7 | is the answer to it. We will not assume that we already know. We | will try to free our minds of all the many different kinds of |
| W1:79.7 | all the many different kinds of problems that we think we have. We | will try to realize that we have only one problem, which we have |
| W1:79.7 | that we have only one problem, which we have failed to recognize. We | will ask what it is and wait for the answer. We will be told. Then we |
| W1:79.7 | to recognize. We will ask what it is and wait for the answer. We | will be told. Then we will ask for the solution to it. And we will be |
| W1:79.7 | ask what it is and wait for the answer. We will be told. Then we | will ask for the solution to it. And we will be told. |
| W1:79.7 | We will be told. Then we will ask for the solution to it. And we | will be told. |
| W1:79.8 | Our exercises for today | will be successful to the extent to which we do not insist on |
| W1:79.8 | extent to which we do not insist on defining the problem. Perhaps we | will not succeed in letting all our preconceived notions go, but that |
| W1:79.9 | The shorter practice periods for today | will not be set by time but by need. You will see many problems |
| W1:79.9 | practice periods for today will not be set by time but by need. You | will see many problems today, each one calling for an answer. Our |
| W1:79.9 | see many problems today, each one calling for an answer. Our efforts | will be directed toward recognizing that there is only one problem |
| W1:79.12 | If possible, close your eyes for a moment and ask what it is. You | will be heard and you will be answered. |
| W1:79.12 | your eyes for a moment and ask what it is. You will be heard and you | will be answered. |
| W1:80.1 | If you are willing to recognize your problems, you | will recognize that you have no problems. Your one central problem |
| W1:80.3 | you do not forget that all problems are the same. Their many forms | will not deceive you while you remember this. One problem—one |
| W1:80.4 | In our longer practice periods today, we | will claim the peace that must be ours when the problem and the |
| W1:R2.1 | We are now ready for another review. We | will begin where our last review left off and cover two ideas each |
| W1:R2.1 | left off and cover two ideas each day. The earlier part of each day | will be devoted to one of these ideas, and the latter part of the day |
| W1:R2.1 | one of these ideas, and the latter part of the day to the other. We | will have one longer exercise period and frequent shorter ones in |
| W1:R2.2 | The longer practice periods | will follow this general form: take about 15 minutes for each of |
| W1:R2.3 | There is a message waiting for you. Be confident that you | will receive it. Remember that it belongs to you and that you want |
| W1:R2.3 | them with your determination to succeed. Do not forget that your | will has power over all fantasies and dreams. Trust it to see you |
| W1:R2.5 | and a more specific form when needed. Some specific forms | will be included in the comments. These, however, are merely |
| W1:81.4 | the light of the world shine through this appearance. This shadow | will vanish before the light. |
| W1:81.5 | the light of the world. It is through accepting my function that I | will see the light in me. And in this light will my function stand |
| W1:81.5 | my function that I will see the light in me. And in this light | will my function stand clear and perfectly unambiguous before my |
| W1:81.5 | what my function is, for I do not yet understand forgiveness. Yet I | will trust that in the light I will see it as it is. |
| W1:81.5 | not yet understand forgiveness. Yet I will trust that in the light I | will see it as it is. |
| W1:81.7 | what forgiveness means. Let me not separate my function from my | will. I would not use this for an alien purpose. |
| W1:82.1 | We | will review these ideas today: |
| W1:82.5 | my function by forgetting. And unless I fulfill my function, I | will not experience the joy that God intends for me. |
| W1:84.2 | I cannot die. I am not a body. I would recognize my reality today. I | will worship no idols nor raise my own self-concepts to replace my |
| W1:84.7 | This is no justification for denying my Self. I | will not use this to attack love. Let this not tempt me to attack |
| W1:85.1 | Today's review | will cover these ideas: |
| W1:85.2 | to see. To see, I must lay grievances aside. I want to see, and this | will be the means by which I will succeed. |
| W1:85.2 | aside. I want to see, and this will be the means by which I | will succeed. |
| W1:85.4 | Let me not use this as a block to sight. The light of the world | will shine all this away. I have no need for this. I want to see. |
| W1:85.5 | [70] My salvation comes from me. Today I | will recognize where my salvation is. It is in me because its Source |
| W1:85.5 | It has not left its Source, and so it cannot have left my mind. I | will not look for it outside myself. It is not found outside and then |
| W1:85.5 | It is not found outside and then brought in. But from within me it | will reach beyond, and everything I see will but reflect the light |
| W1:85.5 | in. But from within me it will reach beyond, and everything I see | will but reflect the light that shines in me and in itself. |
| W1:85.7 | Let this not tempt me to look away from me for my salvation. I | will not let this interfere with my awareness of the Source of my |
| W1:86.2 | [71] Only God's plan for salvation | will work. It is senseless for me to search wildly about for |
| W1:86.2 | I was mistaken about where it is. I was mistaken about what it is. I | will undertake no more idle seeking. Only God's plan for salvation |
| W1:86.2 | I will undertake no more idle seeking. Only God's plan for salvation | will work. And I will rejoice because His plan can never fail. |
| W1:86.2 | no more idle seeking. Only God's plan for salvation will work. And I | will rejoice because His plan can never fail. |
| W1:86.4 | God's plan for salvation | will save me from my perception of this. This is no exception in |
| W1:86.5 | grievances is an attempt to prove that God's plan for salvation | will not work. Yet only His plan will work. By holding grievances, I |
| W1:86.5 | prove that God's plan for salvation will not work. Yet only His plan | will work. By holding grievances, I am therefore excluding my only |
| W1:86.7 | as I look on this. If I see grounds for grievances in this, I | will not see the grounds for my salvation. This calls for salvation, |
| W1:87.1 | Our review today | will cover these ideas: |
| W1:87.2 | [73] I | will there be light. I will use the power of my will today. It is not |
| W1:87.2 | [73] I will there be light. I | will use the power of my will today. It is not my will to grope about |
| W1:87.2 | [73] I will there be light. I will use the power of my | will today. It is not my will to grope about in darkness, fearful of |
| W1:87.2 | there be light. I will use the power of my will today. It is not my | will to grope about in darkness, fearful of shadows and afraid of |
| W1:87.2 | afraid of things unseen and unreal. Light shall be my guide today. I | will follow it where it leads me, and I will look only on what it |
| W1:87.2 | shall be my guide today. I will follow it where it leads me, and I | will look only on what it shows me. This day I will experience the |
| W1:87.2 | it leads me, and I will look only on what it shows me. This day I | will experience the peace of true perception. |
| W1:87.4 | This cannot hide the light I | will to see. You stand with me in light, [name]. In the light this |
| W1:87.4 | I will to see. You stand with me in light, [name]. In the light this | will look different. |
| W1:87.5 | [74] There is no | will but God's. I am safe today because there is no will but God's. I |
| W1:87.5 | [74] There is no will but God's. I am safe today because there is no | will but God's. I can become afraid only when I believe that there is |
| W1:87.5 | God's. I can become afraid only when I believe that there is another | will. I try to attack only when I am afraid, and only when I try to |
| W1:87.5 | attack can I believe that my eternal safety is threatened. Today I | will recognize that all this has not occurred. I am safe because |
| W1:87.5 | that all this has not occurred. I am safe because there is no | will but God's. |
| W1:87.7 | Let me perceive this in accordance with the | Will of God. It is God's Will you are His Son, [name], and mine as |
| W1:87.7 | Let me perceive this in accordance with the Will of God. It is God's | Will you are His Son, [name], and mine as well. This is part of God's |
| W1:87.7 | you are His Son, [name], and mine as well. This is part of God's | Will for me, however I may see it. |
| W1:88.1 | Today we | will review these ideas: |
| W1:89.5 | [78] Let miracles replace all grievances. By this idea do I unite my | will with the Holy Spirit's and perceive them as one. By this idea do |
| W1:90.1 | For this review we | will use these ideas: |
| W1:90.4 | to me which I would have resolved. The miracle behind this grievance | will resolve it for me. The answer to this problem is the miracle |
| W1:90.5 | problem, so that they cannot be separated by time. The Holy Spirit | will teach me this if I will let Him. And I will understand it is |
| W1:90.5 | cannot be separated by time. The Holy Spirit will teach me this if I | will let Him. And I will understand it is impossible that I could |
| W1:90.5 | by time. The Holy Spirit will teach me this if I will let Him. And I | will understand it is impossible that I could have a problem which |
| W1:90.6 | These forms of the idea | will be useful for specific applications: |
| W1:90.7 | to be resolved. The answer to this problem is already given me if I | will accept it. Time cannot separate this problem from its solution. |
| W1:91.1 | to see. It is only your awareness of miracles that is affected. You | will see them in the light; you will not see them in the dark. |
| W1:91.1 | of miracles that is affected. You will see them in the light; you | will not see them in the dark. |
| W1:91.4 | realize how great this strength, your doubts would vanish. Today we | will devote ourselves to the attempt to let you feel this strength. |
| W1:91.4 | strength in you which makes all miracles within your easy reach, you | will not doubt. The miracles your sense of weakness hides will leap |
| W1:91.4 | reach, you will not doubt. The miracles your sense of weakness hides | will leap into awareness as you feel the strength in you. |
| W1:91.5 | goes to what you want, and you instruct your mind accordingly. Your | will remains your teacher, and your will has all the strength to do |
| W1:91.5 | your mind accordingly. Your will remains your teacher, and your | will has all the strength to do what it desires. You can escape the |
| W1:91.12 | faith. Try to remove your faith from it, if only for a moment. You | will become accustomed to keeping faith with the more worthy in you |
| W1:91.13 | strength of God and all His thoughts. It is from Them your strength | will come. It is through Their strong support that you will feel the |
| W1:91.13 | your strength will come. It is through Their strong support that you | will feel the strength in you. They are united with you in this |
| W1:91.13 | you share a purpose like Their own. Theirs is the light in which you | will see miracles because Their strength is yours. Their strength |
| W1:92.6 | Truth is a savior and can only | will for happiness and peace for everyone. It gives its strength to |
| W1:92.6 | is shared that it may bring to all the miracle in which they | will unite in purpose and forgiveness and in love. |
| W1:92.9 | The strength in you | will offer you the light and guide your seeing, so you do not dwell |
| W1:92.10 | this meeting. Let yourself be brought unto your Self. Its strength | will be the light in which the gift of sight is given you. Leave, |
| W1:92.10 | is given you. Leave, then, the dark a little while today, and we | will practice seeing in the light, closing the body's eyes and asking |
| W1:92.11 | Morning and evening we | will practice thus. After the morning meeting, we will use the day in |
| W1:92.11 | and evening we will practice thus. After the morning meeting, we | will use the day in preparation for the time at night when we will |
| W1:92.11 | we will use the day in preparation for the time at night when we | will meet again in hope and trust. Let us repeat as often as we can |
| W1:93.3 | thoughts are meaningless. These thoughts are not according to God's | Will. These weird beliefs He does not share with you. This is enough |
| W1:93.4 | and peace abide in you? Your image of yourself cannot withstand the | Will of God. You think that this is death, but it is life. You think |
| W1:93.5 | power can this self you made possess when it would contradict the | Will of God? |
| W1:93.7 | and unalterable. Your sinlessness is guaranteed by God. You are and | will forever be exactly as you were created. Light and joy and peace |
| W1:93.8 | if done for the first five minutes of every waking hour, we | will begin by stating the truth about our creation: |
| W1:94.2 | strong in the sinlessness in which you were created and in which you | will remain throughout eternity. |
| W1:94.3 | Today we | will again devote the first five minutes of each waking hour to the |
| W1:94.6 | in silent expectancy for the truth. God has Himself promised that it | will be revealed to all who ask for it. You are asking now. You |
| W1:94.11 | Make every effort to do the hourly exercises today. Each one you do | will be a giant stride toward your release and a milestone in |
| W1:95.3 | We | will attempt today to be aware of only what can hear and see and what |
| W1:95.3 | aware of only what can hear and see and what makes perfect sense. We | will again direct our exercises towards reaching your One Self, which |
| W1:95.7 | We | will therefore keep to the five minutes an hour practice periods for |
| W1:95.7 | to omit as few as possible. Using the first five minutes of the hour | will be particularly helpful since it imposes firmer structure. Do |
| W1:95.10 | This tolerance for weakness | will enable us to overlook it, rather than give it power to delay our |
| W1:95.12 | This is the truth, and nothing else is true. Today we | will affirm this truth again and try to reach the place in you in |
| W1:95.17 | One Self, in perfect harmony with all there is and all that there | will be. You are One Self, the holy Son of God, united with your |
| W1:95.17 | with your brothers in this Self, united with your Father in His | Will. |
| W1:95.19 | to all the world. And Heaven looks to you in confidence that you | will try today. Share, then, its surety, for it is yours. Be |
| W1:96.1 | solutions, and none of them has worked. The opposites you see in you | will never be compatible. But one exists. |
| W1:96.2 | be accepted if you would be saved. Until you have accepted this, you | will attempt endless lists of goals you cannot reach; a senseless |
| W1:96.2 | one as futile as the one before and failing as the next one surely | will. |
| W1:96.9 | We | will attempt today to find this thought, whose presence in your mind |
| W1:96.9 | speaks to you from your One Self. Our hourly five minute practicing | will be a search for Him within your mind. Salvation comes from this |
| W1:96.10 | and what your mind can do, restored to it and free to serve its | will. |
| W1:96.15 | If you succeed, the thoughts that come to you | will tell you you are saved and that your mind has found the function |
| W1:96.15 | your mind has found the function that it sought to lose. Your Self | will welcome it and give it peace. Restored in strength, it will |
| W1:96.15 | Self will welcome it and give it peace. Restored in strength, it | will again flow out from Spirit to the Spirit in all things created |
| W1:96.15 | the Spirit in all things created by the Spirit as Itself. Your mind | will bless all things. Confusion done, you are restored, for you have |
| W1:96.16 | while. Be not dismayed by this. The joy your Self experiences it | will save for you, and it will yet be yours in full awareness. Every |
| W1:96.16 | by this. The joy your Self experiences it will save for you, and it | will yet be yours in full awareness. Every time you spend five |
| W1:96.17 | growing store. And all of it is given everyone who asks for it and | will accept the gift. Think, then, how much is given unto you to give |
| W1:97.1 | the truth. Practice this truth today as often as you can, for it | will bring your mind from conflict to the quiet fields of peace. No |
| W1:97.4 | and count on Him Who promised to lay timelessness beside them. He | will offer all His strength to every little effort which you make. |
| W1:97.6 | The Holy Spirit | will be glad to take five minutes of each hour from your hands and |
| W1:97.6 | around this aching world, where pain and misery appear to rule. He | will not overlook one open mind that will accept the healing gift |
| W1:97.6 | and misery appear to rule. He will not overlook one open mind that | will accept the healing gift they bring, and He will lay them |
| W1:97.6 | one open mind that will accept the healing gift they bring, and He | will lay them everywhere He knows they will be welcome. And they will |
| W1:97.6 | gift they bring, and He will lay them everywhere He knows they | will be welcome. And they will increase in healing power each time |
| W1:97.6 | He will lay them everywhere He knows they will be welcome. And they | will increase in healing power each time someone accepts them as his |
| W1:97.7 | Thus | will your gift to Him be multiplied a thousand-fold and tens of |
| W1:97.7 | and tens of thousands more. And when it is returned to you, it | will surpass in might the little gift you gave as much as does the |
| W1:97.7 | tiny gleam a firefly makes an uncertain moment, and goes out. Yet | will the steady brilliance of this light remain, and leads you out of |
| W1:97.7 | brilliance of this light remain, and leads you out of darkness, nor | will you be able to forget the way again. |
| W1:97.10 | Expressed through you, the Holy Spirit | will accept this gift which you received of Him, increase its power, |
| W1:97.11 | Offer each practice period today gladly to Him. And He | will speak to you, reminding you that you are Spirit, one with Him |
| W1:98.1 | on but one side today. We side with truth and let illusions go. We | will not vacillate between the two but take a firm position with the |
| W1:98.1 | ourselves to truth today and to salvation as God planned it be. We | will not argue it is something else; we will not seek for it where it |
| W1:98.1 | as God planned it be. We will not argue it is something else; we | will not seek for it where it is not. In gladness we accept it as it |
| W1:98.3 | threats without reality. They rest in quiet certainty that they | will do what it is given them to do. They do not doubt their own |
| W1:98.3 | They do not doubt their own ability because they know their function | will be filled completely in the perfect time and place. They took |
| W1:98.3 | in the perfect time and place. They took the stand which we | will take today that we may share their certainty and thus increase |
| W1:98.4 | They | will be with us—all who took the stand we take today will gladly |
| W1:98.4 | They will be with us—all who took the stand we take today | will gladly offer us all that they learned and every gain they made. |
| W1:98.4 | they learned and every gain they made. Those still uncertain too | will join with us and, borrowing our certainty, will make it stronger |
| W1:98.4 | still uncertain too will join with us and, borrowing our certainty, | will make it stronger still. While those as yet unborn will hear the |
| W1:98.4 | certainty, will make it stronger still. While those as yet unborn | will hear the call we heard and answer it, when they have come to |
| W1:98.7 | Each hour today give Him your tiny gift of but five minutes. He | will give the words you use in practicing today's idea the deep |
| W1:98.7 | idea the deep conviction and the certainty you lack. His words | will join with yours and make each repetition of today's idea a total |
| W1:98.8 | His confidence in you | will bring the light to all the words you say, and you will go beyond |
| W1:98.8 | in you will bring the light to all the words you say, and you | will go beyond their sound to what they really mean. Today you |
| W1:98.9 | I | will accept my part in God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:98.10 | In each five minutes that you spend with Him, He | will accept your words and give them back to you all bright with |
| W1:98.10 | you all bright with faith and confidence so strong and steady they | will light the world with hope and gladness. Do not lose one chance |

| W1:98.11 | Give Him the words, and He will do the rest. He | will enable you to understand your special function. He will open up |
| W1:98.11 | the rest. He will enable you to understand your special function. He | will open up the way to happiness, and peace and trust will be His |
| W1:98.11 | function. He will open up the way to happiness, and peace and trust | will be His gifts, His answer to your words. He will respond with all |
| W1:98.11 | and peace and trust will be His gifts, His answer to your words. He | will respond with all His faith and joy and certainty that what you |
| W1:98.11 | His faith and joy and certainty that what you say is true. And you | will have conviction then of Him Who knows the function that you have |
| W1:98.11 | Who knows the function that you have on earth as well as Heaven. He | will be with you each practice period you share with Him, exchanging |
| W1:98.12 | time be spent in happy preparation for the next five minutes you | will spend again with Him. Repeat today's idea while you wait for the |
| W1:98.13 | the part which He would have you take and help you fill, and He | will make you sure you want this choice, which He has made with you |
| W1:99.1 | that needs corrective change, something apart or different from the | Will of God. Thus do both terms imply the thought of the impossible |
| W1:99.5 | thing must still be true—God still is Love, and this is not His | Will. |
| W1:99.8 | is my only function here. God still is Love, and this is not His | Will. |
| W1:99.9 | You who | will yet work miracles, be sure you practice well the idea for today. |
| W1:99.9 | lies. Your Father loves you. All the world of pain is not His | Will. Forgive yourself the thought He wanted this for you. Then let |
| W1:99.9 | places of your mind which thought the thoughts that never were His | Will. |
| W1:99.10 | make them real by hiding them from Him. Let in the light, and you | will look upon no obstacle to what He wills for you. Open your |
| W1:99.11 | spots and shine through them to join them to the rest. It is God's | Will your mind be one with His. It is God's Will that He has but one |
| W1:99.11 | to the rest. It is God's Will your mind be one with His. It is God's | Will that He has but one Son. It is God's Will that His one Son is |
| W1:99.11 | one with His. It is God's Will that He has but one Son. It is God's | Will that His one Son is you. |
| W1:99.17 | is my only function here. God still is Love, and this is not His | Will. |
| W1:100.2 | God's | Will for you is perfect happiness. Why should you choose to go |
| W1:100.2 | you is perfect happiness. Why should you choose to go against His | Will? The part that He has saved for you to take in working out His |
| W1:100.2 | to let His plan be understood by those to whom He sends you. They | will see their function in your shining face and hear God calling to |
| W1:100.4 | They are the proof that God wills perfect happiness for all who | will accept their Father's gifts as theirs. |
| W1:100.5 | We | will not let ourselves be sad today. For if we do, we fail to take |
| W1:100.6 | Today we | will attempt to understand joy is our function here. If you are sad, |
| W1:100.7 | who looks on you and sees His message in your happy face. We | will prepare ourselves for this today in our five minute practice |
| W1:100.7 | periods by feeling happiness arise in us according to our Father's | Will and ours. |
| W1:100.9 | us try to find that joy which proves to us and all the world God's | Will for us. It is your function that you find it here and that you |
| W1:100.10 | He | will be there. And you can reach Him now. What could you rather look |
| W1:100.10 | keep you from success when He Who calls to you is God Himself? He | will be there. You are essential to His plan. You are His messenger |
| W1:101.1 | Today we | will continue with the theme of happiness. This is a key idea in |
| W1:101.2 | and it is this they ask for, for they know it waits for them and it | will seek them out and find them somewhere, sometime, in some form |
| W1:101.2 | they owe to God. They would escape Him in their fear. And yet He | will pursue, and they cannot escape. |
| W1:101.3 | never be escaped if sin is real. Salvation must be feared, for it | will kill but slowly, taking everything away before it grants the |
| W1:101.5 | teach sin is not real, and all that you believe must come from sin | will never happen, for it has no cause. Accept Atonement with an open |
| W1:101.6 | as we can today because it is the basis for today's idea. God's | Will for you is perfect happiness because there is no sin, and |
| W1:101.7 | Fear not the | Will of God. But turn to it in confidence that it will set you free |
| W1:101.7 | Fear not the Will of God. But turn to it in confidence that it | will set you free from all the consequences sin has wrought in |
| W1:101.8 | God's | Will for me is perfect happiness. There is no sin; it has no |
| W1:101.9 | periods, and then attempt again to find the joy these thoughts | will introduce into your mind. Give these five minutes gladly to |
| W1:101.11 | God's | Will for me is perfect happiness. This is the truth because there is |
| W1:102.2 | You have been slave to nothing. Be you free today to join the happy | Will of God. |
| W1:102.3 | For several days we | will continue to devote our longer practice periods to exercises |
| W1:102.3 | periods to exercises planned to help you reach the happiness God's | Will has placed in you. Here is your home, and here your safety is. |
| W1:102.4 | Begin the longer practice periods today with this acceptance of God's | Will for you: |
| W1:102.5 | I share God's | Will for happiness for me, and I accept it as my function now. |
| W1:102.6 | to find it when you learn it is your choice and that you share God's | Will. |
| W1:102.7 | as your one function. And be sure that you are joining with God's | Will in doing this. |
| W1:103.3 | This basic error we | will try again to bring to truth today and teach ourselves: |
| W1:103.6 | what you expect to take the place of pain. God being Love, it | will be given you. Bolster this expectation frequently throughout the |
| W1:104.2 | His are the gifts which we inherited before time was and which | will still be ours when time has passed into eternity. |
| W1:104.3 | we need not wait to have them. They belong to us today. Therefore we | will to have them now and know in choosing them in place of what we |
| W1:104.3 | and know in choosing them in place of what we made we but unite our | will with what God wills and recognize the same as being one. |
| W1:104.8 | So do we clear the way for Him today by simply recognizing that His | Will is done already and that joy and peace belong to us as His |
| W1:104.8 | already and that joy and peace belong to us as His eternal gifts. We | will not let ourselves lose sight of them between the times we come |
| W1:104.8 | times we come to seek for them where He has laid them. This reminder | will we bring to mind as often as we can: |
| W1:105.1 | God's peace and joy are yours. Today we | will accept them, knowing they belong to us. And we will try to |
| W1:105.1 | yours. Today we will accept them, knowing they belong to us. And we | will try to understand these gifts increase as we receive them. They |
| W1:105.4 | Accept God's peace and joy, and you | will learn a different way of looking at a gift. God's gifts will |
| W1:105.4 | and you will learn a different way of looking at a gift. God's gifts | will never lessen when they are given away. They but increase |
| W1:105.6 | joy as yours. Let Him complete Himself as He defines completion. You | will understand that what completes Him must complete His Son as |
| W1:105.6 | No more can you. Receive His gift of joy and peace today, and He | will thank you for your gift to Him. |
| W1:105.7 | Today our practice periods | will start a little differently. Begin today by thinking of those |
| W1:106.1 | If you | will lay aside the ego's voice, however loudly it may seem to call; |
| W1:106.1 | aside the ego's voice, however loudly it may seem to call; if you | will not accept its petty gifts which give you nothing that you |
| W1:106.1 | its petty gifts which give you nothing that you really want; if you | will listen with an open mind, which has not told you what salvation |
| W1:106.1 | an open mind, which has not told you what salvation is; then you | will hear the mighty Voice of truth, quiet in power, strong in |
| W1:106.4 | dreamt or wished for in your dreams. His miracles are true. They | will not fade when dreaming ends. They end the dream instead and last |
| W1:106.6 | to speak to all the multitudes who wait to hear the Word that He | will speak today. Be ready for salvation. It is here and will today |
| W1:106.6 | that He will speak today. Be ready for salvation. It is here and | will today be given unto you. And you will learn your function from |
| W1:106.6 | for salvation. It is here and will today be given unto you. And you | will learn your function from the One Who chose it in your Father's |
| W1:106.7 | Listen today, and you | will hear a Voice Which will resound throughout the world through |
| W1:106.7 | Listen today, and you will hear a Voice Which | will resound throughout the world through you. The Bringer of all |
| W1:106.7 | it ends; when everything is yours, and everything is given away, it | will remain with you forever. And the lesson has been learned. |
| W1:106.9 | I | will be still and listen to the truth. What does it mean to give and |
| W1:106.10 | is one whose answer has been waiting long to be received by you. It | will begin the ministry for which you came and which will free the |
| W1:106.10 | by you. It will begin the ministry for which you came and which | will free the world from thinking giving is a way to lose. And so the |
| W1:106.11 | in listening, a thousand minds are opened to the truth. And they | will hear the holy Word you hear. And when the hour is past, you will |
| W1:106.11 | will hear the holy Word you hear. And when the hour is past, you | will again release a thousand more who pause to ask that truth be |
| W1:107.3 | not more than just the faintest intimation of the state your mind | will rest in when the truth has come. |
| W1:107.5 | the doubts that the appearances the world presents engender. They | will merely blow away when truth corrects the errors in your mind. |
| W1:107.8 | Today belongs to truth. Give truth its due, and it | will give you yours. You were not meant to suffer and to die. Your |
| W1:107.11 | Truth | will correct all errors in your mind which tell you you could be |
| W1:107.12 | Truth | will correct all errors in my mind, and I will rest in Him Who is my |
| W1:107.12 | Truth will correct all errors in my mind, and I | will rest in Him Who is my Self. |
| W1:107.13 | Then let Him lead you gently to the truth which | will envelop you and give you peace so deep and tranquil that you |
| W1:107.13 | will envelop you and give you peace so deep and tranquil that you | will return to the familiar world reluctantly. |
| W1:107.14 | And yet you | will be glad to look again upon this world. For you will bring with |
| W1:107.14 | And yet you will be glad to look again upon this world. For you | will bring with you the promise of the changes which the truth that |
| W1:107.14 | you the promise of the changes which the truth that goes with you | will carry to the world. They will increase with every gift you give |
| W1:107.14 | which the truth that goes with you will carry to the world. They | will increase with every gift you give of five small minutes, and the |
| W1:107.14 | give of five small minutes, and the errors that surround the world | will be corrected as you let them be corrected in your mind. |
| W1:107.15 | for today. Each time you tell yourself with confidence, “Truth | will correct all errors in my mind,” you speak for all the world and |
| W1:108.1 | thoughts into one concept which is wholly true? Even that one | will disappear because the Thought behind it will appear instead, to |
| W1:108.1 | true? Even that one will disappear because the Thought behind it | will appear instead, to take its place. And now we are at peace |
| W1:108.5 | One Thought, completely unified, | will serve to unify all thought. This is the same as saying one |
| W1:108.5 | to unify all thought. This is the same as saying one correction | will suffice for all correction or that to forgive one brother wholly |
| W1:108.6 | to other areas of doubt and double vision. And from there it | will extend and finally arrive at the one thought Which underlies |
| W1:108.7 | Today we practice with the special case of giving and receiving. We | will use this simple lesson in the obvious because it has results we |
| W1:108.7 | it has results we cannot miss. To give is to receive. Today we | will attempt to offer peace to everyone and see how quickly peace |
| W1:108.9 | To give and to receive are one in truth. I | will receive what I am giving now. |
| W1:108.12 | then pause a while, expecting to receive the gift you gave, and it | will come to you in the amount in which you gave it. You will find |
| W1:108.12 | and it will come to you in the amount in which you gave it. You | will find you have exact return, for this is what you asked. It might |
| W1:108.13 | Our very simple lesson for today | will teach you much. Effect and cause will be far better understood |
| W1:108.13 | very simple lesson for today will teach you much. Effect and cause | will be far better understood from this time on, and we will make |
| W1:108.13 | and cause will be far better understood from this time on, and we | will make much faster progress now. Think of the exercises for today |
| W1:109.1 | seem to look on danger and on sorrow. And we have the thought that | will answer our asking with what we request. |
| W1:109.2 | “I rest in God.” This thought | will bring to you the rest and quiet, peace and stillness, and the |
| W1:109.2 | of suffering for all the world and everyone who ever came and yet | will come to linger for a while. Here is the thought in which the Son |
| W1:109.3 | “I rest in God.” Completely undismayed this thought | will carry you through storms and strife, past misery and pain, past |
| W1:109.3 | There is no problem which it cannot solve. And no appearance but | will turn to truth before the eyes of you who rest in God. |
| W1:109.4 | intrude on you. You call to all to join you in your rest, and they | will hear and come to you because you rest in God. They will not hear |
| W1:109.4 | and they will hear and come to you because you rest in God. They | will not hear another voice but yours because you gave your voice to |
| W1:109.6 | be still and thankfully accept its healing. No more fearful dreams | will come now that you rest in God. Take time today to slip away from |
| W1:109.8 | you rest today the world is nearer waking. And the time when rest | will be the only thing there is comes closer to all worn and tired |
| W1:109.8 | worn and tired minds, too weary now to go their way alone. And they | will hear the bird begin to sing and see the stream begin to flow |
| W1:109.9 | from your rest, to draw them to their rest along with you. You | will be faithful to your trust today, forgetting no one, bringing |
| W1:110.1 | We | will repeat today's idea from time to time. For this one thought |
| W1:110.2 | complete correction heal your mind and give you perfect vision which | will heal all the mistakes that any mind has made at any time or |
| W1:110.10 | Seek Him today, and find Him. He | will be your savior from all idols you have made. For when you find |
| W1:110.10 | your savior from all idols you have made. For when you find Him you | will understand how worthless are your idols and how false the images |
| W1:110.11 | We | will remember Him throughout the day with thankful hearts and loving |
| W1:110.11 | who meet with us today, for it is thus that we remember Him. And we | will say, that we may be reminded of His Son, our holy Self, the |
| W1:R3.1 | Our third review begins today. We | will review two of the last 20 ideas each day until we have reviewed |
| W1:R3.1 | of the last 20 ideas each day until we have reviewed them all. We | will observe a special format for these practice periods, which you |
| W1:R3.2 | Learning | will not be hampered when you miss a practice period because it is |
| W1:R3.3 | But learning | will be hampered when you skip a practice period because you are |
| W1:R3.6 | your mind and let it use them as it chooses. Give it faith that it | will use them wisely, being helped in its decisions by the One Who |
| W1:R3.6 | mind? Have faith in these reviews, the means the Holy Spirit uses | will not fail. The wisdom of your mind will come to your assistance. |
| W1:R3.6 | means the Holy Spirit uses will not fail. The wisdom of your mind | will come to your assistance. Give direction at the start, and then |
| W1:R3.7 | them to your mind in that same trust and confidence and faith. It | will not fail. It is the Holy Spirit's chosen means for your |
| W1:R3.13 | Each day's review assignment | will conclude with a restatement of the thought to use each hour and |
| W1:R3.13 | well. Forget them not. This second chance with each of these ideas | will bring such large advances that we come from these reviews with |
| W1:112.3 | [94] I am as God created me. I | will remain forever as I was, Created by the Changeless like Himself. |
| W1:114.3 | [98] I | will accept my part in God's plan for salvation. What can my function |
| W1:114.3 | but to accept the Word of God, Who has created me, for what I am and | will forever be? |
| W1:114.7 | I | will accept my part in God's plan for salvation. |
| W1:116.2 | [101] God's | Will for me is perfect happiness. God's Will is perfect happiness for |
| W1:116.2 | [101] God's Will for me is perfect happiness. God's | Will is perfect happiness for me. And I can suffer but from the |
| W1:116.2 | for me. And I can suffer but from the belief there is another | will apart from His. |
| W1:116.3 | [102] I share God's | Will for happiness for me. I share my Father's Will for me, His Son. |
| W1:116.3 | [102] I share God's Will for happiness for me. I share my Father's | Will for me, His Son. What He has given me is all I want. What He has |
| W1:116.5 | God's | Will for me is perfect happiness. |
| W1:116.7 | I share God's | Will for happiness for me. |
| W1:118.2 | [105] God's peace and joy are mine. Today I | will accept God's peace and joy in glad exchange for all the |
| W1:119.2 | [107] Truth | will correct all errors in my mind. I am mistaken when I think I can |
| W1:119.3 | [108] To give and to receive are one in truth. I | will forgive all things today, that I may learn how to accept the |
| W1:119.5 | Truth | will correct all errors in my mind. |
| W1:121.7 | that it has been saved from hell. And as you teach salvation, you | will learn. |
| W1:121.8 | Yet all your teaching and your learning | will be not of you, but of the Teacher Who was given you to show the |
| W1:121.8 | today to take the key to happiness and use it on your own behalf. We | will devote ten minutes in the morning and at night another ten to |
| W1:121.9 | mind does not believe that giving and receiving are the same. Yet we | will try to learn today that they are one through practicing |
| W1:121.9 | consider as a friend. And as you learn to see them both as one, we | will extend the lesson to yourself and see that their escape included |
| W1:121.10 | the form your anger takes. You probably have chosen him already. He | will do. |
| W1:121.14 | Forgiveness is the key to happiness. I | will awaken from the dream that I am mortal, fallible, and full of |
| W1:122.4 | brings? Why would you seek an answer other than the answer that | will answer everything? Here is the perfect answer, given to |
| W1:122.5 | Here is the answer! Seek for it no more. You | will not find another one instead. God's plan for your salvation |
| W1:122.6 | waits for you within? Forgive and be forgiven. As you give, you | will receive. There is no plan but this for the salvation of the Son |
| W1:122.8 | truths, forever newly born, arise in your awareness. What you | will remember then can never be described. Yet your forgiveness |
| W1:122.9 | we undertake our practicing today with hope and faith that this | will be the day salvation will be ours. Earnestly and gladly will we |
| W1:122.9 | today with hope and faith that this will be the day salvation | will be ours. Earnestly and gladly will we seek for it today, aware |
| W1:122.9 | this will be the day salvation will be ours. Earnestly and gladly | will we seek for it today, aware we hold the key within our hands, |
| W1:122.11 | answered, and what your acceptance of the answer brings. Today it | will be given you to feel the peace forgiveness offers and the joy |
| W1:122.12 | Before the light you | will receive today the world will fade until it disappears, and you |
| W1:122.12 | Before the light you will receive today the world | will fade until it disappears, and you will see another world arise |
| W1:122.12 | will receive today the world will fade until it disappears, and you | will see another world arise you have no words to picture. Now we |
| W1:123.2 | A day devoted now to gratitude | will add the benefit of some insight into the real extent of all the |
| W1:123.3 | Give thanks that He has not abandoned you and that His Love forever | will remain shining on you, forever without change. Give thanks as |
| W1:123.5 | In thanking Him the thanks are yours as well. An unheard message | will not save the world, however mighty be the Voice that speaks, |
| W1:123.6 | back a thousand and a hundred thousand more than they were given. He | will bless your gifts by sharing them with you, and so they grow in |
| W1:123.7 | thanks and offer yours to Him for 15 minutes twice today. And you | will realize to Whom you offer thanks, and Whom He thanks as you are |
| W1:123.7 | He thanks as you are thanking Him. This holy half an hour given Him | will be returned to you in terms of years for every second, power to |
| W1:123.8 | Receive His thanks, and you | will understand how lovingly He holds you in His Mind, how deep and |
| W1:124.1 | Today we | will again give thanks for our Identity in God. Our home is safe, |
| W1:124.2 | as we walk the world a little while. And those who come to follow us | will recognize the way because the light we carry stays behind, yet |
| W1:124.3 | created, smiles on us and offers us the happiness we gave. Today we | will not doubt His Love for us nor question His protection and His |
| W1:124.8 | we give no rules nor special words to guide your meditation. We | will trust God's Voice to speak as He sees fit today, certain He will |
| W1:124.8 | We will trust God's Voice to speak as He sees fit today, certain He | will not fail. Abide with Him this half an hour. He will do the rest. |
| W1:124.8 | certain He will not fail. Abide with Him this half an hour. He | will do the rest. |
| W1:124.9 | Your benefit | will not be less if you believe that nothing happens. You may not be |
| W1:124.9 | not be ready to accept the gain today. Yet sometime, somewhere, it | will come to you, nor will you fail to recognize it when it dawns |
| W1:124.9 | the gain today. Yet sometime, somewhere, it will come to you, nor | will you fail to recognize it when it dawns with certainty upon your |
| W1:124.9 | it when it dawns with certainty upon your mind. This half an hour | will be framed in gold, with every minute like a diamond set around |
| W1:124.9 | every minute like a diamond set around the mirror that this exercise | will offer you. And you will see Christ's face upon it, in reflection |
| W1:124.9 | set around the mirror that this exercise will offer you. And you | will see Christ's face upon it, in reflection of your own. |
| W1:124.10 | Perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you | will see your own transfiguration in the glass this holy half an hour |
| W1:124.10 | see your own transfiguration in the glass this holy half an hour | will hold out to you to look upon yourself. When you are ready, you |
| W1:124.10 | will hold out to you to look upon yourself. When you are ready, you | will find it there within your mind and waiting to be found. You will |
| W1:124.10 | you will find it there within your mind and waiting to be found. You | will remember then the thought to which you gave this half an hour, |
| W1:124.11 | Perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you | will look into this glass and understand the sinless light you see |
| W1:124.11 | this half hour as your gift to God, in certainty that His return | will be a sense of love you cannot understand, a joy too deep for you |
| W1:124.11 | yet you can be sure someday, perhaps today, perhaps tomorrow, you | will understand and comprehend and see. |
| W1:125.2 | This world | will change through you. No other means can save it, for God's plan |
| W1:125.2 | and at his side to lead him surely to his Father's house by his own | will, forever free as God's. He is not led by force, but only love. |
| W1:125.3 | In stillness we | will hear God's Voice today without intrusion of our petty thoughts, |
| W1:125.3 | our personal desires, and without all judgment of His holy Word. We | will not judge ourselves today, for what we are cannot be judged. We |
| W1:125.3 | the world has laid upon the Son of God. It knows him not. Today we | will not listen to the world, but wait in silence for the Word of God. |
| W1:125.4 | mind where He abides forever in the holiness which He created and | will never leave. |
| W1:125.5 | of Him regardless of his dreams, regardless of his madness that his | will is not his own. |
| W1:125.8 | Word He speaks. It is the Word of freedom and of peace, of unity of | will and purpose, with no separation nor division in the single Mind |
| W1:125.9 | Only be quiet. You | will need no rule but this to let your practicing today lift you |
| W1:125.9 | free your vision from the body's eyes. Only be still and listen. You | will hear the Word in which the Will of God the Son joins in His |
| W1:125.9 | eyes. Only be still and listen. You will hear the Word in which the | Will of God the Son joins in His Father's Will, at one with It, with |

| W1:126.1 | of the world, is crucial to the thought reversal which this course | will bring about. If you believed this statement, there would be no |
| W1:126.8 | to understand the truth that giver and receiver are the same. You | will need help to make this meaningful because it is so alien to the |
| W1:126.9 | takes its proper place in your priorities. It is the thought that | will release your mind from every bar to what forgiveness means and |
| W1:126.10 | Be glad to hear the Voice of truth and healing speak to you, and you | will understand the words He speaks and recognize He speaks your |
| W1:126.12 | The Help I need to learn that this is true is with me now. And I | will trust in Him. |
| W1:126.13 | mind to His correction and His Love. And what you hear of Him you | will believe, for what He gives will be received by you. |
| W1:126.13 | Love. And what you hear of Him you will believe, for what He gives | will be received by you. |
| W1:127.8 | Call to your Father, certain that His Voice | will answer. He Himself has promised this. And He Himself will place |
| W1:127.8 | His Voice will answer. He Himself has promised this. And He Himself | will place a spark of truth within your mind wherever you give up a |
| W1:127.8 | belief, a dark illusion of your own reality and what love means. He | will shine through your idle thoughts today and help you understand |
| W1:127.8 | and help you understand the truth of love. In loving gentleness, He | will abide with you as you allow His Voice to teach love's meaning to |
| W1:127.8 | Voice to teach love's meaning to your clean and open mind. And He | will bless the lesson with His Love. |
| W1:127.10 | The world in infancy is newly born. And we | will watch it grow in strength and health to shed its blessing upon |
| W1:127.11 | We | will remember them throughout the day because we cannot leave a part |
| W1:128.2 | you value here is but a chain that binds you to the world, and it | will serve no other end but this. For everything must serve the |
| W1:128.6 | chains and let it seek the level where it finds itself at home. It | will be grateful to be free a while. It knows where it belongs. But |
| W1:128.6 | free a while. It knows where it belongs. But free its wings, and it | will fly in sureness and in joy to join its holy purpose. Let it rest |
| W1:128.7 | three times today. And when your eyes are opened afterwards, you | will not value anything you see as much as when you looked at it |
| W1:128.7 | as when you looked at it before. Your whole perspective on the world | will shift by just a little every time you let your mind escape its |
| W1:128.9 | This | will not tempt me to delay myself. The world I see has nothing that I |
| W1:129.1 | for unless you see that there is something else to hope for, you | will only be depressed. Our emphasis is not on giving up the world |
| W1:129.2 | time to think once more about the value of this world. Perhaps you | will concede there is no loss in letting go all thought of value |
| W1:129.3 | all things you really want and know they have no ending, and they | will remain exactly as you want them throughout time? |
| W1:129.4 | Yet even they | will be exchanged at last for what we cannot speak of, for you go |
| W1:129.5 | sets forth to keep you prisoner there. Value them not, and they | will disappear. Esteem them, and they will seem real to you. |
| W1:129.5 | Value them not, and they will disappear. Esteem them, and they | will seem real to you. |
| W1:130.5 | Today we | will not seek for them nor waste this day in seeking not what cannot |
| W1:130.6 | Today we | will attempt no compromise where none is possible. The world you see |
| W1:130.7 | ends all compromise and doubt and go beyond them all as one. We | will not make a thousand meaningless distinctions, nor attempt to |
| W1:130.10 | God | will be there. For you have called upon the great unfailing Power Who |
| W1:130.10 | be there. For you have called upon the great unfailing Power Who | will take this giant step with you in gratitude. Nor will you fail to |
| W1:130.10 | Power Who will take this giant step with you in gratitude. Nor | will you fail to see His thanks expressed in tangible perception and |
| W1:130.10 | to see His thanks expressed in tangible perception and in truth. You | will not doubt what you will look upon. For though it is perception, |
| W1:130.10 | in tangible perception and in truth. You will not doubt what you | will look upon. For though it is perception, it is not the kind of |
| W1:130.10 | kind of seeing that your eyes alone have ever seen before. And you | will know God's strength upheld as you made this choice. |
| W1:130.12 | and you have damned your eyes and cursed your sight, and what you | will behold is hell indeed. Yet the release of Heaven still remains |
| W1:131.4 | Yet searching is inevitable here. For this you came, and you | will surely do the thing you came for. But the world cannot dictate |
| W1:131.6 | Creator nor affect His perfect, timeless, and unchanging Love. You | will find Heaven. Everything you seek but this will fall away, yet |
| W1:131.6 | unchanging Love. You will find Heaven. Everything you seek but this | will fall away, yet not because it has been taken from you. It will |
| W1:131.6 | this will fall away, yet not because it has been taken from you. It | will go because you do not want it. You will reach the goal you |
| W1:131.6 | has been taken from you. It will go because you do not want it. You | will reach the goal you really want as certainly as God created you |
| W1:131.7 | cannot be, if it is where God wills His Son to be. How could the | Will of God be in the past or yet to happen? What He wills is now, |
| W1:131.9 | Himself established him in Heaven? Could he lose what the Eternal | Will has given him to be his home forever? Let us not try longer to |
| W1:131.9 | him to be his home forever? Let us not try longer to impose an alien | will upon God's single purpose. He is here because He wills to be, |
| W1:131.10 | Today we | will not choose a paradox in place of truth. How could the Son of God |
| W1:131.10 | place of truth. How could the Son of God make time to take away the | Will of God? He thus denies himself and contradicts what has no |
| W1:131.11 | asks to reach the truth, and it is truth we ask to reach today. We | will devote ten minutes to this goal three times today, and we will |
| W1:131.11 | We will devote ten minutes to this goal three times today, and we | will ask to see the rising of the real world to replace the foolish |
| W1:131.16 | understand all things you see. A tiny moment of surprise, perhaps, | will make you pause before you realize the world you see before you |
| W1:131.17 | of gladness, for we come to the appointed time and place where you | will find the goal of all your searching here and all the seeking of |
| W1:132.2 | changed the source of all ideas you think or ever thought or yet | will think. |
| W1:132.7 | go as far as he can let himself be led along the road to truth. He | will return and go still farther, or perhaps step back a while and |
| W1:132.8 | there is no world and can accept the lesson now. Their readiness | will bring the lesson to them in some form which they can understand |
| W1:132.8 | be the truth, and yet it clearly contradicts the world. And some | will find it in this course and in the exercises that we do today. |
| W1:132.14 | a shadow briefly laid upon a dying world. Release your mind, and you | will look upon a world released. |
| W1:132.19 | near by as you send out these thoughts to bless the world. But you | will sense your own release, although you may not fully understand as |
| W1:133.1 | already learned, to bring him back to practical concerns. This we | will do today. We will not speak of lofty, world-encompassing ideas |
| W1:133.1 | to bring him back to practical concerns. This we will do today. We | will not speak of lofty, world-encompassing ideas but dwell instead |
| W1:133.6 | the tests by which you can distinguish everything from nothing, you | will make the better choice. |
| W1:133.7 | First, if you choose a thing that | will not last forever, what you chose is valueless. A temporary value |
| W1:133.8 | Next, if you choose to take a thing away from someone else, you | will have nothing left. This is because when you deny his right to |
| W1:133.8 | his right to everything, you have denied your own. You therefore | will not recognize the things you really have, denying they are |
| W1:133.10 | for them. Here is deception doubled, for the one who is deceived | will not perceive that he has merely failed to gain. He will believe |
| W1:133.10 | is deceived will not perceive that he has merely failed to gain. He | will believe that he has served the ego's hidden goals. And though he |
| W1:133.14 | come with nothing to find everything and claim it as their own. We | will attempt to reach this state today, with self-deception laid |
| W1:133.15 | Our two extended practice periods of 15 minutes | will begin with this: |
| W1:133.16 | I | will not value what is valueless, and only what has value do I seek, |
| W1:133.18 | I | will not value what is valueless, for what is valuable belongs to me. |
| W1:134.10 | Thus | will you see alternatives for choice in terms which render choosing |
| W1:134.14 | the footsteps lightening up the way for all our brothers, who | will follow us to the reality we share with them. |
| W1:134.17 | Then choose one brother as He | will direct, and catalogue his “sins,” as one by one they cross your |
| W1:134.18 | If you have been practicing thus far in willingness and honesty, you | will begin to sense a lifting up, a lightening of weight across your |
| W1:134.19 | Forgiveness should be practiced through the day, for there | will be so many times when you forget its meaning and attack |
| W1:134.20 | forgiveness as it is. Should I accuse myself of doing this? I | will not lay this chain upon myself. |
| W1:135.8 | is in need of no defense. This cannot be too often emphasized. It | will be strong and healthy if the mind does not abuse it by assigning |
| W1:135.10 | and the lacks from which you think the body must be saved. You | will not see the mind as separate from bodily conditions. And you |
| W1:135.10 | will not see the mind as separate from bodily conditions. And you | will impose upon the body all the pain that comes from the conception |
| W1:135.11 | These are the thoughts in need of healing, and the body | will respond with health when they have been corrected and replaced |
| W1:135.14 | capacity is health assured. For everything the mind employs for this | will function flawlessly and with the strength that has been given it |
| W1:135.16 | setting up control of future happenings. It does not think that it | will be provided for unless it makes its own provisions. Time becomes |
| W1:135.17 | for its future goals. Its past experience directs its choice of what | will happen. And it does not see that here and now is everything it |
| W1:135.21 | a light which Heaven gratefully acknowledges to be its own. And it | will lead you on in ways appointed for your happiness according to |
| W1:135.21 | to the ancient plan begun when time was born. Your followers | will join their light with yours, and it will be increased until the |
| W1:135.21 | was born. Your followers will join their light with yours, and it | will be increased until the world is lighted up with joy. And gladly |
| W1:135.21 | will be increased until the world is lighted up with joy. And gladly | will our brothers lay aside their cumbersome defenses which availed |
| W1:135.22 | We | will anticipate that time today with present confidence, for this is |
| W1:135.22 | present confidence, for this is part of what was planned for us. We | will be sure that everything we need is given us for our |
| W1:135.22 | us for our accomplishment of this today. We make no plans for how it | will be done but realize that our defenselessness is all that is |
| W1:135.23 | thought which blocks the truth from entering our minds. Today we | will receive instead of plan, that we may give instead of organize. |
| W1:135.24 | If I defend myself, I am attacked. But in defenselessness, I | will be strong, and I will learn what my defenses hide. |
| W1:135.24 | I am attacked. But in defenselessness, I will be strong, and I | will learn what my defenses hide. |
| W1:135.25 | Nothing but that. If there are plans to make, you | will be told of them. They may not be the plans you thought were |
| W1:135.26 | All your defenses have been aimed at not receiving what you | will receive today. And in the light and joy of simple truth, you |
| W1:135.26 | will receive today. And in the light and joy of simple truth, you | will but wonder why you ever thought that you must be defended from |
| W1:135.27 | He has remembered you. Today we | will remember Him. For this is Eastertime in your salvation. And you |
| W1:135.28 | comes to you without your planning. Learn today. And all the world | will take this giant stride and celebrate your Eastertime with you. |
| W1:135.29 | This is my Eastertime. And I would keep it holy. I | will not defend myself, because the Son of God needs no defense |
| W1:136.10 | for the salvation of His Son opposed by a decision stronger than His | Will. His Son is dust, the Father incomplete, and chaos sits in |
| W1:136.12 | God knows not of your plans to change His | Will. The universe remains unheeding of the laws by which you thought |
| W1:136.15 | cease to play with folly. It is found at any time—today, if you | will choose to practice giving welcome to the truth. This is our aim |
| W1:136.15 | practice giving welcome to the truth. This is our aim today. And we | will give a quarter of an hour twice to ask the truth to come to us |
| W1:136.16 | And truth | will come, for it has never been apart from us. It merely waits for |
| W1:136.17 | Sickness is a defense against the truth. I | will accept the truth of what I am and let my mind be wholly healed |
| W1:136.18 | Healing | will flash across your open mind as peace and truth arise to take the |
| W1:136.18 | and truth arise to take the place of war and vain imaginings. There | will be no dark corners sickness can conceal and keep defended from |
| W1:136.18 | can conceal and keep defended from the light of truth. There | will be no dim figures from your dreams nor their obscure and |
| W1:136.18 | with double purposes insanely sought, remaining in your mind. It | will be healed of all the sickly wishes that it tried to authorize |
| W1:136.19 | because the source of sickness has been opened to relief. And you | will recognize you practiced well by this—the body should not feel |
| W1:136.19 | the body should not feel at all. If you have been successful, there | will be no sense of feeling ill or feeling well, of pain or pleasure. |
| W1:136.20 | you gave to it. As these are laid aside, the strength the body has | will always be enough to serve all truly useful purposes. The body's |
| W1:136.21 | you have again misplaced yourself, and made a bodily identity which | will attack the body, for the mind is sick. Give instant remedy |
| W1:137.4 | is merely to accept what always was the simple truth and always | will remain exactly as it has forever been. Yet eyes accustomed to |
| W1:137.5 | but removes illusions that have not occurred. Just as the real world | will arise to take the place of what has never been at all, healing |
| W1:137.7 | Just as forgiveness shines away all sin and the real world | will occupy the place of what you made, so healing must replace the |
| W1:137.8 | Healing is freedom. For it demonstrates that dreams | will not prevail against the truth. Healing is shared. And by this |
| W1:137.10 | seem to have no contact with you healed along with you. Perhaps you | will not recognize them all, nor realize how great your offering to |
| W1:137.10 | to you. But you are never healed alone. And legions upon legions | will receive the gift which you receive when you are healed. |
| W1:137.12 | Would you not offer shelter to God's | Will? You but invite your Self to be at home, and can this invitation |
| W1:137.12 | can this invitation be refused? Ask the inevitable to occur, and you | will never fail. The other choice is but to ask what cannot be to be, |
| W1:137.12 | be to be, and this cannot succeed. Today we ask that only truth | will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing will this day go |
| W1:137.12 | ask that only truth will occupy our minds, that thoughts of healing | will this day go forth from what is healed to what must yet be |
| W1:137.12 | from what is healed to what must yet be healed, aware that they | will both occur as one. |
| W1:137.13 | We | will remember, as the hour strikes, our function is to let our minds |
| W1:137.14 | Yet must we be prepared for such a gift. And so we | will begin the day with this and give ten minutes to these thoughts |
| W1:137.14 | day with this and give ten minutes to these thoughts with which we | will conclude today at night as well: |
| W1:137.16 | all that was sick and offer blessing where there was attack. Nor | will we let this function be forgot as every hour of the day slips |
| W1:138.4 | would induce. You make but one. And when that one is made, you | will perceive it was no choice at all, for truth is true and nothing |
| W1:138.8 | and grip the mind with terror and anxiety so strong that it | will not relinquish its ideas about its own protection. It must be |
| W1:138.13 | Heaven is the decision I must make. I make it now and | will not change my mind, because it is the only thing I want. |
| W1:139.7 | And they | will come again until the time Atonement is accepted, and they learn |
| W1:139.9 | God. It is but this that we are asked to do. It is but this that we | will do today. |
| W1:139.10 | Five minutes in the morning and at night we | will devote to dedicate our minds to our assignment for today. We |
| W1:139.11 | I | will accept Atonement for myself, for I remain as God created me. |
| W1:139.14 | I | will accept Atonement for myself, for I remain as God created me. |
| W1:140.1 | as beneficial. What the world perceives as therapeutic is but what | will make the body “better.” When it tries to heal the mind, it sees |
| W1:140.8 | we seek a cure for all illusions, not another shift among them. We | will try today to find the source of healing, which is in our minds |
| W1:140.9 | We | will not be misled today by what appears to us as sick. We go beyond |
| W1:140.9 | and reach the source of healing from which nothing is exempt. We | will succeed to the extent to which we realize that there can never |
| W1:140.10 | our chants and bits of magic in whatever form they took. We | will be still and listen for the Voice of healing which will cure all |
| W1:140.10 | took. We will be still and listen for the Voice of healing which | will cure all ills as one, restoring saneness to the Son of God. No |
| W1:140.14 | And we | will feel salvation cover us with soft protection and with peace so |
| W1:140.14 | can disturb our minds nor offer proof to us that it is real. This | will we learn today. And we will say our prayer for healing hourly |
| W1:140.14 | offer proof to us that it is real. This will we learn today. And we | will say our prayer for healing hourly and take a minute as the hour |
| W1:R4.1 | the second part of learning how the truth can be applied. Today we | will begin to concentrate on readiness for what will follow next. |
| W1:R4.1 | be applied. Today we will begin to concentrate on readiness for what | will follow next. Such is our aim for this review and for the lessons |
| W1:R4.1 | the recent lessons and their central thoughts in such a way as | will facilitate the readiness which we would now achieve. |
| W1:R4.7 | devoted to the preparation of your mind to learn what each idea you | will review that day can offer you in freedom and in peace. Open your |
| W1:R4.9 | Five minutes with this thought | will be enough to set the day along the lines which God appointed and |
| W1:R4.9 | appointed and to place His Mind in charge of all the thoughts you | will receive that day. They will not come from you alone, for they |
| W1:R4.9 | Mind in charge of all the thoughts you will receive that day. They | will not come from you alone, for they will all be shared with Him. |
| W1:R4.9 | will receive that day. They will not come from you alone, for they | will all be shared with Him. And so each one will bring the message |
| W1:R4.9 | you alone, for they will all be shared with Him. And so each one | will bring the message of His Love to you, returning messages of |
| W1:R4.9 | message of His Love to you, returning messages of yours to Him. So | will communion with the Lord of Hosts be yours, as He Himself has |
| W1:R4.9 | has willed it be. And as His own completion joins with Him, so | will He join with you who are complete as you unite with Him and He |
| W1:R4.10 | you the gift which He has laid in it for you to have of Him. And we | will use no format for our practicing but this: |
| W1:147.1 | [133] I | will not value what is valueless. |
| W1:150.1 | [139] I | will accept Atonement for myself. |
| W1:151.6 | is to doubt yourself. Yet you must learn to doubt their evidence | will clear the way to recognize yourself and let the Voice for God |
| W1:151.7 | He | will not tell you that your brother should be judged by what your |
| W1:151.10 | of everything that seems to happen to you in this world. His lessons | will enable you to bridge the gap between illusions and the truth. He |
| W1:151.10 | enable you to bridge the gap between illusions and the truth. He | will remove all faith that you have placed in pain, disaster, |
| W1:151.10 | and can behold the gentle face of Christ in all of them. You | will no longer doubt that only good can come to you who are beloved |
| W1:151.10 | doubt that only good can come to you who are beloved of God, for He | will judge all happenings and teach the single lesson which they all |
| W1:151.11 | He | will select the elements in them that represent the truth and |
| W1:151.11 | and disregard those aspects which reflect but idle dreams. And He | will reinterpret all you see and all occurrences, each circumstance, |
| W1:151.11 | from His one frame of reference, wholly unified and sure. And you | will see the love beyond the hate, the constancy in change, the pure |
| W1:151.12 | of nothing but your Self and your Creator, Who is one with Him. So | will you see the holy face of Christ in everything and hear in |
| W1:151.13 | and give them back to you as clean ideas that do not contradict the | Will of God. |
| W1:151.14 | Give Him your thoughts, and He | will give them back as miracles which joyously proclaim the wholeness |
| W1:151.15 | you hear the Voice for God give honor to God's Son. And everyone | will share the thoughts with you which He has retranslated in your |
| W1:151.17 | And we | will hourly remember Him Who is salvation and deliverance. As we give |
| W1:152.7 | To think that God made chaos, contradicts His | Will, invented opposites to truth, and suffers death to triumph over |
| W1:152.8 | place as co-creator of the universe, and all you think you made | will disappear. What rises to awareness then will be all that there |
| W1:152.8 | all you think you made will disappear. What rises to awareness then | will be all that there ever was, eternally as it is now. And it will |
| W1:152.8 | then will be all that there ever was, eternally as it is now. And it | will take the place of self-deceptions made but to usurp the altar to |
| W1:152.13 | The power of decision is my own. This day I | will accept myself as what my Father's Will created me to be. |
| W1:152.13 | is my own. This day I will accept myself as what my Father's | Will created me to be. |
| W1:152.14 | Then | will we wait in silence, giving up all self-deceptions as we humbly |
| W1:152.14 | ask our Self that He reveal Himself to us. And He Who never left | will come again to our awareness, grateful to restore His home to God |
| W1:152.15 | concluding it with this same invitation to your Self. God's Voice | will answer, for He speaks for you and for your Father. He will |
| W1:152.15 | Voice will answer, for He speaks for you and for your Father. He | will substitute the peace of God for all your frantic thoughts, the |
| W1:153.6 | It testifies to recognition of the Christ in you. Perhaps you | will recall the course maintains that choice is always made between |
| W1:153.8 | We | will not play such childish games today. For our true purpose is to |
| W1:153.9 | serenely certain of our safety now, sure of salvation; sure we | will fulfill our chosen purpose as our ministry extends its holy |
| W1:153.11 | have done. God has elected all, but few have come to realize His | Will is but their own. And while you fail to teach what you have |
| W1:153.11 | waits and darkness holds the world in grim imprisonment. Nor | will you learn that light has come to you, and your escape has been |
| W1:153.11 | has come to you, and your escape has been accomplished. For you | will not see the light until you offer it to all your brothers. As |
| W1:153.11 | offer it to all your brothers. As they take it from your hands, so | will you recognize it as your own. |
| W1:153.15 | Today we practice in a form we | will maintain for quite a while. We will begin each day by giving our |
| W1:153.15 | Today we practice in a form we will maintain for quite a while. We | will begin each day by giving our attention to the daily thought as |
| W1:153.15 | And as distraction ceases to arise to turn us from our purpose, we | will find that half an hour is too short a time to spend with God. |
| W1:153.15 | find that half an hour is too short a time to spend with God. Nor | will we willingly give less at night in gratitude and joy. |
| W1:153.16 | adds to our increasing peace, as we remember to be faithful to the | will we share with God. At times, perhaps, a minute, even less, will |
| W1:153.16 | the will we share with God. At times, perhaps, a minute, even less, | will be the most that we can offer as the hour strikes. Sometimes we |
| W1:153.16 | will be the most that we can offer as the hour strikes. Sometimes we | will forget. At other times the business of the world will close on |
| W1:153.16 | Sometimes we will forget. At other times the business of the world | will close on us, and we will be unable to withdraw a little while |
| W1:153.16 | At other times the business of the world will close on us, and we | will be unable to withdraw a little while and turn our thoughts to |
| W1:153.17 | Yet when we can, we | will observe our trust as ministers of God in hourly remembrance of |
| W1:153.17 | of God in hourly remembrance of our mission and His Love. And we | will quietly sit by and wait on Him and listen to His Voice and learn |
| W1:153.18 | In time, with practice, you | will never cease to think of Him and hear His loving Voice guiding |
| W1:153.18 | His loving Voice guiding your footsteps into quiet ways where you | will walk in true defenselessness, for you will know that Heaven goes |
| W1:153.18 | into quiet ways where you will walk in true defenselessness, for you | will know that Heaven goes with you. Nor would you keep your mind |
| W1:153.18 | your time is spent in offering salvation to the world. Think you He | will not make this possible for you who chose to carry out His plan |
| W1:153.19 | weakness disappear as we remember that His strength abides in us. We | will remind ourselves that He remains beside us through the day and |
| W1:153.20 | the threat of our defenses undermine our certainty of purpose. We | will pause a moment as He tells us, “I am here.” Your practicing will |
| W1:153.20 | We will pause a moment as He tells us, “I am here.” Your practicing | will now begin to take the earnestness of love to help you keep your |
| W1:153.21 | Be not afraid nor timid. There can be no doubt that you | will reach your final goal. The ministers of God can never fail |
| W1:154.4 | union with itself. So is its Self the one reality in which its | will and that of God are joined. |
| W1:154.5 | the right of him who does nor ask why he has chosen those who | will receive the message that he brings. It is enough that he accept |
| W1:154.10 | It is this joining that we undertake to recognize today. We | will not seek to keep our minds apart from Him Who speaks for us, for |
| W1:154.10 | and the giving of God's Word, the giving and receiving of His | Will. |
| W1:154.11 | those who wait in misery may be at last delivered. And He needs our | will united with His own, that we may be the true receivers of the |
| W1:154.12 | Let us but learn this lesson for today: we | will not recognize what we receive until we give it. You have heard |
| W1:154.12 | is lacking still. But this is sure—until belief is given it, you | will receive a thousand miracles and then receive a thousand more but |
| W1:154.12 | receive a thousand miracles and then receive a thousand more but | will not know that God Himself has left no gift beyond what you |
| W1:154.15 | and what our function is. For as we prove that we accept no | will we do not share, our many gifts from our Creator will spring to |
| W1:154.15 | we accept no will we do not share, our many gifts from our Creator | will spring to our sight and leap into our hands, and we will |
| W1:154.15 | our Creator will spring to our sight and leap into our hands, and we | will understand what we received. |
| W1:155.1 | do recognize their own. Yet those who have not yet perceived the way | will recognize you also and believe that you are like them as you |
| W1:155.3 | This is the simple choice we make today. The mad illusion | will remain awhile in evidence for those to look upon who chose to |
| W1:155.7 | All roads | will lead to this one in the end. For sacrifice and deprivation are |
| W1:155.7 | are paths which lead nowhere, choices for defeat, and aims which | will remain impossible. All this steps back as truth comes forth in |
| W1:155.10 | Yet at the journey's ending there | will be no gap, no distance between truth and you. And all illusions |
| W1:155.10 | truth and you. And all illusions walking in the way you traveled | will be gone from you as well, with nothing left to keep the truth |
| W1:155.11 | things that pass, and miracles are purposeless, the holy Son of God | will make no journeys. There will be no wish to be illusion rather |
| W1:155.11 | are purposeless, the holy Son of God will make no journeys. There | will be no wish to be illusion rather than the truth. And we step |
| W1:155.11 | way. For as truth goes before us, so it goes before our brothers who | will follow us. |
| W1:155.13 | His trust has made your pathway certain and your goal secure. You | will not fail your brothers nor your Self. |
| W1:155.15 | I | will step back and let Him lead the way, for I would walk along the |
| W1:157.3 | Today it | will be given you to feel a touch of Heaven, though you will return |
| W1:157.3 | Today it will be given you to feel a touch of Heaven, though you | will return to paths of learning. Yet you have come far enough along |
| W1:157.3 | to rise above its laws and walk into eternity a while. This you | will learn to do increasingly, as every lesson, faithfully rehearsed, |
| W1:157.4 | He | will direct your practicing today, for what you ask for now is what |
| W1:157.4 | for what you ask for now is what He wills. And having joined your | will with His this day, what you are asking must be given you. |
| W1:157.5 | you think of, or who thinks of you. For your experience today | will so transform your mind that it becomes the touchstone for the |
| W1:157.6 | Your body | will be sanctified today, its only purpose being now to bring the |
| W1:157.7 | all goals but this become of little worth, the world to which you | will return becomes a little closer to the end of time, a little more |
| W1:157.7 | ways, a little nearer its deliverance. And you who bring it light | will come to see the light more sure, the vision more distinct. |
| W1:157.8 | The time | will come when you will not return in the same form in which you now |
| W1:157.8 | The time will come when you | will not return in the same form in which you now appear, for you |
| W1:157.8 | will not return in the same form in which you now appear, for you | will have no need of it. Yet now it has a purpose and will serve it |
| W1:157.8 | for you will have no need of it. Yet now it has a purpose and | will serve it well. Today we will embark upon a course you have not |
| W1:157.8 | of it. Yet now it has a purpose and will serve it well. Today we | will embark upon a course you have not dreamed of. But the Holy One, |
| W1:157.9 | Into Christ's Presence | will we enter now, serenely unaware of everything except His shining |
| W1:157.9 | except His shining face and perfect Love. The vision of His face | will stay with you, but there will be an instant which transcends all |
| W1:157.9 | perfect Love. The vision of His face will stay with you, but there | will be an instant which transcends all vision, even this, the |
| W1:157.9 | which transcends all vision, even this, the holiest. This you | will never teach, for you attained it not through learning. Yet the |
| W1:157.9 | vision speaks of your remembrance of what you knew that instant and | will surely know again. |
| W1:158.2 | that vision can. The revelation that the Father and the Son are one | will come in time to every mind. Yet is that time determined by the |
| W1:158.4 | which does not change. The script is written. When experience | will come to end your doubting has been set. For we but see the |
| W1:158.5 | because He has a vision He can give to anyone who asks. The Father's | Will and His are joined in knowledge. Yet there is a vision which the |
| W1:159.7 | hearth of mercy where the suffering are healed and welcome. No one | will be turned away from this new home where his salvation waits. No |
| W1:160.1 | Fear is a stranger to the ways of love. Identify with fear, and you | will be a stranger to yourself. And thus you are unknown to you. What |
| W1:160.3 | yet how easy it would be to say, “This is my home. Here I belong and | will not leave because a madman says I must.” What reason is there |
| W1:160.6 | for he has made return impossible. His way is lost except a miracle | will search him out and show him that he is no stranger now. The |
| W1:160.6 | search him out and show him that he is no stranger now. The miracle | will come. For in his home his Self remains. It asked no stranger in |
| W1:160.6 | asked no stranger in and took no alien thought to be Itself. And It | will call Its own unto Itself, in recognition of what is Its own. |
| W1:160.10 | and perfect as it was established. He has not forgotten you. But you | will not remember Him until you look on all as He does. Who denies |
| W1:161.8 | Who sees a brother as a body sees him as fear's symbol. And he | will attack because what he beholds is his own fear external to |
| W1:161.9 | that you could scarce refrain from kneeling at his feet. Yet you | will take his hand instead, for you are like him in the sight that |
| W1:161.10 | Attack on him is enemy to you, for you | will not perceive that in his hands is your salvation. Ask him but |
| W1:161.10 | that in his hands is your salvation. Ask him but for this, and he | will give it to you. Ask him not to symbolize your fear. Would you |
| W1:161.11 | we have attempted earlier. Your readiness is closer now, and you | will come today nearer Christ's vision. If you are intent on reaching |
| W1:161.11 | today nearer Christ's vision. If you are intent on reaching it, you | will succeed today. And once you have succeeded, you will not be |
| W1:161.11 | it, you will succeed today. And once you have succeeded, you | will not be willing to accept the witnesses your body's eyes call |
| W1:161.11 | to accept the witnesses your body's eyes call forth. What you | will see will sing to you of ancient melodies you will remember. You |
| W1:161.11 | accept the witnesses your body's eyes call forth. What you will see | will sing to you of ancient melodies you will remember. You are not |
| W1:161.11 | forth. What you will see will sing to you of ancient melodies you | will remember. You are not forgot in Heaven. Would you not remember |
| W1:161.15 | And He | will answer Whom you called upon, for He will hear the Voice of God |
| W1:161.15 | And He will answer Whom you called upon, for He | will hear the Voice of God in you and answer in your own. Behold him |
| W1:161.16 | a brother and perceive in him the symbol of your fear. And you | will see him suddenly transformed from enemy to savior, from the |
| W1:162.1 | held firmly in the mind, would save the world. From time to time we | will repeat it, as we reach another stage in learning. It will mean |
| W1:162.1 | to time we will repeat it, as we reach another stage in learning. It | will mean far more to you as you advance. These words are sacred, for |
| W1:162.2 | is proclaimed and honored as it is. There is no dream these words | will not dispel, no thought of sin, and no illusion that the dream |
| W1:162.2 | no thought of sin, and no illusion that the dream contains that | will not fade away before their might. They are the trumpet of |
| W1:162.2 | awake in answer to its call. And those who live and hear this sound | will never look on death. |
| W1:162.3 | because he sleeps and wakens with the truth before him always. He | will save the world because he gives the world what he receives each |
| W1:163.2 | it alone is real, inevitable, worthy of their trust. For it alone | will surely come. |
| W1:163.3 | place of aspirations and of dreams. But death is counted on. For it | will come with certain footsteps when the time has come for its |
| W1:163.3 | with certain footsteps when the time has come for its arrival. It | will never fail to take all life as hostage to itself. |
| W1:163.4 | of God proclaimed as lord of all creation, stronger than God's | Will for life, the endlessness of love and Heaven's perfect, |
| W1:163.4 | of love and Heaven's perfect, changeless constancy. Here is the | Will of Father and of Son defeated finally and laid to rest beneath |
| W1:163.7 | apparently, by those who did not want him to survive. Their stronger | will could triumph over His, and so eternal life gave way to death. |
| W1:163.8 | this which they believed, they would be instantly released. And you | will show them this today. There is no death, and we renounce it now |
| W1:163.9 | from Your eternal life. There is no death, for death is not Your | Will. And we abide where You have placed us, in the Life we share |
| W1:163.9 | and part of You forever. We accept Your thoughts as ours, and our | will is one with Yours eternally. Amen. |
| W1:164.2 | distinct—an ancient call to which He gives an ancient answer. You | will recognize them both. For they are but your answer to your |
| W1:164.3 | sounds which come from nearer than the world are clear to you who | will today accept the gifts He gives. |
| W1:164.4 | in you the thought of sin has never touched. All this today you | will remember. Faithfulness in practicing today will bring rewards so |
| W1:164.4 | All this today you will remember. Faithfulness in practicing today | will bring rewards so great and so completely different from all |
| W1:164.4 | so completely different from all things you sought before that you | will know that here your treasure is and here your rest. |
| W1:164.5 | scales of judgment left to Him Who judges true. And in His judgment | will a world unfold in perfect innocence before your eyes. Now will |
| W1:164.5 | will a world unfold in perfect innocence before your eyes. Now | will you see it with the eyes of Christ. Now is its transformation |
| W1:164.7 | We | will not judge today. We will receive but what is given us from |
| W1:164.7 | We will not judge today. We | will receive but what is given us from judgment made beyond the |
| W1:164.7 | for our release from blindness and from misery. All that we see | will but increase our joy because its holiness reflects our own. We |
| W1:165.4 | Nor need you perceive how great the gift, how changed your mind | will be before it comes to you. Ask to receive, and it is given you. |
| W1:165.5 | you request the only thing you want. But when you have received, you | will be sure you have the treasure you have always sought. What would |
| W1:165.7 | of Him is still beyond all dreams and in our minds according to His | Will. |
| W1:166.1 | back that can contribute to your happiness. And yet unless your | will is one with His, His gifts are not received. But what would make |
| W1:166.1 | are not received. But what would make you think there is another | will than His? |
| W1:166.2 | that underlies the making of the world. This world is not the | Will of God, and so it is not real. Yet those who think it real must |
| W1:166.2 | Yet those who think it real must still believe there is another | will, and one that leads to opposite effects from those He wills. |
| W1:166.5 | gifts go with him, all unknown to him. He cannot lose them. But he | will not look at what is given him. He wanders on, aware of the |
| W1:166.10 | God's | Will does not oppose. It merely is. It is not God you have imprisoned |
| W1:166.10 | to lose your Self. He does not know about a plan so alien to His | Will. There was a need He did not understand, to which He gave an |
| W1:166.12 | gifts that God has given you. He speaks as well of what becomes your | will when you accept these gifts and recognize they are your own. |
| W1:166.14 | Your sighs | will now betray the hopes of those who look to you for their release. |
| W1:167.5 | cannot give birth to what was never given them. As they are made, so | will their making be. As they were born, so will they then give |
| W1:167.5 | As they are made, so will their making be. As they were born, so | will they then give birth. And where they come from, there will they |
| W1:167.5 | born, so will they then give birth. And where they come from, there | will they return. |
| W1:167.10 | because he sleeps and sees in dreams an opposite to what he is? We | will not ask for death in any form today. Nor will we let imagined |
| W1:167.10 | to what he is? We will not ask for death in any form today. Nor | will we let imagined opposites to life abide even an instant where |
| W1:167.12 | holy minds which He created perfect. As we were, so are we now and | will forever be. A sleeping mind must waken as it sees its own |
| W1:168.1 | loves His Son. There is no certainty but this, yet this suffices. He | will love His Son forever. When his mind remains asleep, He loves him |
| W1:168.2 | of His Love. Would He not gladly give the means by which His | Will is recognized? His grace is yours by your acknowledgment. And |
| W1:168.4 | loves His Son. Request Him now to give the means by which this world | will disappear, and vision first will come with knowledge but an |
| W1:168.4 | give the means by which this world will disappear, and vision first | will come with knowledge but an instant later. For in grace you see a |
| W1:168.6 | for what He has prepared for us He gives and we receive. Such is His | Will because He loves His Son. To Him we pray today, returning but |
| W1:168.7 | grace is given me. I claim it now. Father, I come to You. And You | will come to me who asks. I am the Son You love. |
| W1:169.4 | set. But we have also said the mind determines when that time | will be and has determined it. And yet we urge you to bear witness to |
| W1:169.6 | this at all. It comes to every mind when total recognition that its | will is God's has been completely given and received completely. It |
| W1:169.7 | all but this is now at hand. We do not hasten it, in that what you | will offer was concealed from Him Who teaches what forgiveness means. |
| W1:169.9 | the world can understand. When revelation of your oneness comes, it | will be known and fully understood. Now we have work to do, for those |
| W1:169.11 | the final gift salvation can bestow. Experience that grace provides | will end in time, for grace foreshadows Heaven yet does not replace |
| W1:169.15 | By grace I live. By grace I am released. By grace I give. By grace I | will release. |
| W1:170.5 | by which your fancied self-defense proceeds on its imagined way, you | will perceive the premises on which the idea stands. First, it is |
| W1:170.9 | a choice, standing before this idol, seeing him exactly as he is. | Will you restore to love what you have sought to wrest from it and |
| W1:170.9 | to wrest from it and lay before this mindless piece of stone? Or | will you make another idol to replace it? For the god of cruelty |
| W1:R5.3 | So do we bring our practicing to You. And if we stumble, You | will raise us up. If we forget the way, we count upon Your sure |
| W1:R5.3 | the way, we count upon Your sure remembering. We wander off, but You | will not forget to call us back. Quicken our footsteps now, that we |
| W1:R5.7 | ending. Every step we take brings us a little nearer. This review | will shorten time immeasurably if we keep in mind that This remains |
| W1:R5.8 | but still retaining in his mind the way that led him out and now | will lead you out with him. God's Son is crucified until you walk |
| W1:R5.10 | Together we devote our time and effort to them. And together we | will teach them to our brothers. God would not have Heaven |
| W1:R5.10 | time was and kept unchanged by time, immaculate and safe, as it | will be at last, when time is done. |
| W1:R5.11 | review be then your gift to me. For this alone I need—that you | will hear the words I speak and give them to the world. You are my |
| W1:R5.14 | throughout the day. And thus when we have finished this review, we | will have recognized the words we speak are true. |
| W1:173.2 | [155] I | will step back and let Him lead the way. God is but Love, and |
| W1:I2.1 | now in order to attain the sense of peace such unified commitment | will bestow, if only intermittently. It is experiencing this which |
| W1:I2.1 | intermittently. It is experiencing this which makes it sure that you | will give your total willingness to following the way the course sets |
| W1:I2.2 | tight control of what you see speaks for itself. Your motivation | will be so intensified that words become of little consequence. You |
| W1:I2.2 | will be so intensified that words become of little consequence. You | will be sure of what you want and what is valueless. |
| W1:I2.3 | No more than this is asked because no more than this is needed. It | will be enough to guarantee the rest will come. |
| W1:I2.3 | no more than this is needed. It will be enough to guarantee the rest | will come. |
| W1:181.2 | to what you see. Change but this focus, and what you behold | will change accordingly. Your vision now will shift to give support |
| W1:181.2 | focus, and what you behold will change accordingly. Your vision now | will shift to give support to the intent which has replaced the one |
| W1:181.2 | their mistakes, if focused on, are witnesses to sins in you. And you | will not transcend their sight and see the sinlessness that lies |
| W1:181.4 | and restricting thought that, even if you should succeed, you | will inevitably lose your way again. How could this matter? For the |
| W1:181.5 | by a little while. We do not look to past beliefs, and what we | will believe will not intrude upon us now. We enter in the time of |
| W1:181.5 | while. We do not look to past beliefs, and what we will believe | will not intrude upon us now. We enter in the time of practicing with |
| W1:181.5 | in any form. And if a brother's sins occur to us, our narrowed focus | will restrict our sight and turn our eyes upon our own mistakes, |
| W1:181.5 | restrict our sight and turn our eyes upon our own mistakes, which we | will magnify and call our “sins.” |
| W1:181.6 | without regard to past or future, should such blocks arise, we | will transcend them with instructions to our minds to change their |
| W1:181.8 | And we | will also use these thoughts to keep us safe throughout the day. We |
| W1:181.8 | seek but for surcease an instant from the misery the focus upon sin | will bring and, uncorrected, will remain. |
| W1:181.8 | from the misery the focus upon sin will bring and, uncorrected, | will remain. |
| W1:181.9 | look upon is really there. And as our focus goes beyond mistakes, we | will behold a wholly sinless world. When seeing this is all we want |
| W1:181.9 | ours. And the love He feels for us becomes our own as well. This | will become the only thing we see reflected in the world and in |
| W1:181.10 | trust to the experience we ask for now. Our sinlessness is but the | Will of God. This instant is our willing one with His. |
| W1:182.2 | play to occupy their time and keep their sadness from them. Others | will deny that they are sad and do not recognize their tears at all. |
| W1:182.2 | they are sad and do not recognize their tears at all. Still others | will maintain that what we speak of is illusion, not to be considered |
| W1:182.4 | He is alien here. This Childhood is eternal, with an innocence that | will endure forever. Where this Child shall go is holy ground. It is |
| W1:182.5 | holy air that fills His Father's house. You are His home as well. He | will return. But give Him just a little time to be Himself within the |
| W1:182.6 | Yet does He know that in you still abides His sure protection. You | will fail Him not. He will go home, and you along with Him. |
| W1:182.6 | in you still abides His sure protection. You will fail Him not. He | will go home, and you along with Him. |
| W1:182.7 | outcast in a world of alien thoughts. His patience has no limits. He | will wait until you hear His gentle Voice within you, calling you to |
| W1:182.8 | when valueless ideas cease to have value in your restless mind, then | will you hear His Voice. So poignantly He calls to you that you will |
| W1:182.8 | then will you hear His Voice. So poignantly He calls to you that you | will not resist Him longer. In that instant, He will take you to His |
| W1:182.8 | to you that you will not resist Him longer. In that instant, He | will take you to His home, and you will stay with Him in perfect |
| W1:182.8 | Him longer. In that instant, He will take you to His home, and you | will stay with Him in perfect stillness, silent and at peace, beyond |
| W1:182.9 | them. He asks but they protect Him, for His home is far away, and He | will not return to it alone. |
| W1:183.4 | thing before God's Name. Repeat His Name and see how easily you | will forget the names of all the gods you value. They have lost the |
| W1:183.8 | Thus do we give an invitation which can never be refused. And God | will come and answer it Himself. Think not He hears the little |
| W1:183.9 | realizing that there is One Name for all there is and all that there | will be. |
| W1:183.10 | Today you can achieve a state in which you | will experience the gifts of grace. You can escape all bondage of the |
| W1:183.11 | own. He makes his claim to all his Father gave, is giving still, and | will forever give. He calls on Him to let all things he thought he |
| W1:184.2 | you are established as a unity which functions with an independent | will. |
| W1:184.3 | was given them as well. For what is named is given meaning and | will then be seen as meaningful, a cause of true effects with |
| W1:184.9 | for anything at all, and in your practicing, it is this thought that | will release you from them. They become but means by which you can |
| W1:185.2 | and it is given him. For that is all he wants, and that is all he | will receive. Many have said these words. But few indeed have meant |
| W1:185.3 | Two minds with one intent become so strong that what they | will becomes the Will of God. For minds can only join in truth. In |
| W1:185.3 | with one intent become so strong that what they will becomes the | Will of God. For minds can only join in truth. In dreams no two can |
| W1:185.5 | And he has learned their only difference is one of form, for one | will bring the same despair and misery as do the rest. |
| W1:185.6 | if he asks without sincerity, there is no form in which the lesson | will meet with acceptance and be truly learned. |
| W1:185.8 | words you use in making your requests. Consider but what you believe | will comfort you and bring you happiness. But be you not dismayed by |
| W1:185.9 | You choose God's peace, or you have asked for dreams. And dreams | will come as you requested them. Yet will God's peace come just as |
| W1:185.9 | asked for dreams. And dreams will come as you requested them. Yet | will God's peace come just as certainly and to remain with you |
| W1:185.9 | peace come just as certainly and to remain with you forever. It | will not be gone with every twist and turning of the road to reappear |
| W1:185.11 | he deceive himself no longer by denying to himself what is God's | Will. Who can remain unsatisfied who asks for what he has already? |
| W1:185.13 | And when it is as meaningless to you, you can be sure you share one | will with Him, and He with you. And you will also know you share one |
| W1:185.13 | can be sure you share one will with Him, and He with you. And you | will also know you share one will with all your brothers, whose |
| W1:185.13 | will with Him, and He with you. And you will also know you share one | will with all your brothers, whose intent is yours. |
| W1:186.1 | Here is the statement that | will one day take all arrogance away from every mind. Here is the |
| W1:186.1 | role. It does not judge your proper role. It but acknowledges the | Will of God is done on earth as well as Heaven. It unites all wills |
| W1:186.2 | establish it. It is not our idea. The means are given us by which it | will be perfectly accomplished. All that we are asked to do is to |
| W1:186.3 | request but this? And what could arrogance deny but this? Today we | will not shrink from our assignment on the specious grounds that |
| W1:186.4 | would have us do. We do not doubt our adequacy for the function He | will offer us. We will be certain only that He knows our strengths, |
| W1:186.4 | We do not doubt our adequacy for the function He will offer us. We | will be certain only that He knows our strengths, our wisdom, and our |
| W1:186.8 | And so we find our peace. We | will accept the function God has given us, for all illusions rest |
| W1:186.10 | These unsubstantial images | will go and leave your mind unclouded and serene when you accept the |
| W1:186.11 | Who knows no error. And His Voice is certain of its messages. They | will not change nor be in conflict. All of them point to one goal, |
| W1:186.14 | form, you can fulfill your function even here, although what love | will mean to you when formlessness has been restored to you is |
| W1:187.1 | you have lost what you possessed. The truth maintains that giving | will increase what you possess. |
| W1:187.2 | it is sure that if you give a finite thing away, your body's eyes | will not perceive it yours. Yet we have learned that things but |
| W1:187.3 | to save the world, you first accept salvation for yourself. But you | will not believe that this is done until you see the miracles it |
| W1:187.4 | you value by the act of giving them away, and you are sure that you | will never lose them. What you thought you did not have is thereby |
| W1:187.4 | not have is thereby proven yours. Yet value not its form. For this | will change and grow unrecognizable in time, however much you try to |
| W1:187.5 | world conceives of them. There is a giver who retains, another who | will give as well. And both must gain in this exchange, for each will |
| W1:187.5 | who will give as well. And both must gain in this exchange, for each | will have the thought in form most helpful to him. What he seems to |
| W1:187.5 | most helpful to him. What he seems to lose is always something he | will value less than what will surely be returned to him. |
| W1:187.5 | he seems to lose is always something he will value less than what | will surely be returned to him. |
| W1:187.8 | that error has arisen and correction must be made. Your blessing | will correct it. Given first to you, it now is yours to give as well. |
| W1:187.9 | the fear of God diminishes to nothingness before the purity that you | will look on here. Be not afraid to look. The blessedness you will |
| W1:187.9 | you will look on here. Be not afraid to look. The blessedness you | will behold will take away all thought of form and leave instead the |
| W1:187.9 | look on here. Be not afraid to look. The blessedness you will behold | will take away all thought of form and leave instead the perfect gift |
| W1:187.11 | is ours, we offer it to everything we see. For where we see it, it | will be returned to us in form of lilies we can lay upon our altar, |
| W1:188.8 | where they fall in line with all the thoughts we share with God. We | will not let them stray. We let the light within our minds direct |
| W1:188.9 | in us and from us to all living things that share our life. We | will forgive them all, absolving all the world of what we thought it |
| W1:189.1 | is a light in you the world cannot perceive. And with its eyes you | will not see this light, for you are blinded by the world. Yet you |
| W1:189.5 | But learn and do not let your mind forget this law of seeing: you | will look upon that which you feel within. If hatred finds a place |
| W1:189.5 | you feel within. If hatred finds a place within your heart, you | will perceive a fearful world, held cruelly in death's sharp-pointed, |
| W1:189.8 | the Son and God the Father to be quietly removed forever. God | will do His part in joyful and immediate response. Ask and receive. |
| W1:189.9 | this choice we rest. And in our quiet hearts and open minds His love | will blaze its pathway of itself. What has not been denied is surely |
| W1:189.10 | the way to You. But we have called, and You have answered us. We | will not interfere. Salvation's ways are not our own, for they belong |
| W1:189.10 | is the way that we would find and follow. And we ask but that Your | Will, which is our own as well, be done in us and in the world, that |
| W1:190.1 | It is not a fact at all. There is no form it takes which | will not disappear if seen aright. For pain proclaims God cruel. How |
| W1:190.5 | what you are. As you perceive the harmlessness in them, they | will accept your holy will as theirs. And what was seen as fearful |
| W1:190.5 | As you perceive the harmlessness in them, they will accept your holy | will as theirs. And what was seen as fearful now becomes a source of |
| W1:190.6 | It has no effects at all. It merely represents your thoughts. And it | will change entirely as you elect to change your mind and choose the |
| W1:190.7 | As an effect, it cannot make effects. As an illusion it is what you | will. Your idle wishes represent its pains. Your strange desires |
| W1:190.9 | withering assaults with which you seek to hide your holiness. Here | will you understand there is no pain. Here does the joy of God belong |
| W1:191.2 | that does not seem to bring you nearer death, no hope you hold but | will dissolve in tears. |
| W1:191.3 | Deny your own Identity, and you | will not escape the madness which induced this weird, unnatural, and |
| W1:191.5 | that hold it prisoner. And from this place of safety and escape, you | will return and set it free. For he who can accept his true Identity |
| W1:191.6 | this savage need in it. You set it free of your imprisonment. You | will not see a devastating image of yourself walking the world in |
| W1:191.11 | in a world which shows no mercy to you. Yet when you accord it mercy | will its mercy shine on you. |
| W1:191.12 | return again to bless the world he made. In error it began. But it | will end in the reflection of his holiness. And we will sleep no more |
| W1:191.12 | it began. But it will end in the reflection of his holiness. And we | will sleep no more and dream of death. Then join with me today. Your |
| W1:192.1 | It is your Father's holy | will that you complete Himself and that your Self shall be His sacred |
| W1:192.5 | mind without the body cannot make mistakes. It cannot think that it | will die nor be the prey of merciless attack. Anger becomes |
| W1:192.6 | the Son to look again upon his holiness. With anger gone, you | will indeed perceive that for Christ's vision and the gift of sight |
| W1:192.9 | a stab of anger, realize you hold a sword above your head. And it | will fall or be averted as you choose to be condemned or free. Thus |
| W1:192.10 | him. And you are what he is. Forgive him now his sins, and you | will see that you are one with him. |
| W1:193.1 | God does not know of learning. Yet His | Will extends to what He does not understand in that He wills the |
| W1:193.1 | and eternally open and wholly limitless in Him. This is His | Will. And thus His Will provides the means to guarantee that it is |
| W1:193.1 | open and wholly limitless in Him. This is His Will. And thus His | Will provides the means to guarantee that it is done. |
| W1:193.2 | for One Who can correct his erring sight and give him vision that | will lead him back to where perception ceases. God does not perceive |
| W1:193.5 | These are the lessons God would have you learn. His | Will reflects them all, and they reflect His loving kindness to the |
| W1:193.6 | Forgive and you | will see this differently. |
| W1:193.8 | Forgive and you | will see this differently. |
| W1:193.14 | We | will attempt today to overcome a thousand seeming obstacles to peace |
| W1:193.15 | them all to Him Who knows the way to look upon them so that they | will disappear. Truth is His message; truth His teaching is. His are |
| W1:193.17 | one goes, let everything that happens in its course go with it. Thus | will you remain unbound, in peace eternal in the world of time. This |
| W1:193.19 | I | will forgive and this will disappear. |
| W1:193.19 | I will forgive and this | will disappear. |
| W1:193.20 | God the Father down to earth at last, to raise it up to Heaven. God | will take this final step Himself. Do not deny the little steps He |
| W1:194.4 | but asked to let the future go and place it in God's hands. And you | will see by your experience that you have laid the past and present |
| W1:194.4 | have laid the past and present in His hands as well because the past | will punish you no more and future dread will now be meaningless. |
| W1:194.4 | as well because the past will punish you no more and future dread | will now be meaningless. |
| W1:194.6 | can see the lesson for today as the deliverance it really is, you | will not hesitate to give as much consistent effort as you can to |
| W1:194.6 | to the world. And as you learn to see salvation in all things, so | will the world perceive that it is saved. |
| W1:194.7 | can never threaten. He is sure that his perception may be faulty but | will never lack correction. He is free to choose again when he has |
| W1:194.9 | untroubled, sure that only good can come to us. If we forget, we | will be gently reassured. If we accept an unforgiving thought, it |
| W1:194.9 | we will be gently reassured. If we accept an unforgiving thought, it | will be soon replaced by love's reflection. And if we are tempted to |
| W1:194.9 | replaced by love's reflection. And if we are tempted to attack, we | will appeal to Him Who guards our rest to make the choice for us that |
| W1:195.4 | to love. We offer thanks to God our Father that in us all things | will find their freedom. It will never be that some are loosed while |
| W1:195.4 | to God our Father that in us all things will find their freedom. It | will never be that some are loosed while others still are bound, for |
| W1:195.5 | but in sincerity. And let your gratitude make room for all who | will escape with you—the sick, the weak, the needy and afraid, and |
| W1:195.8 | still locked away as sins. When your forgiveness is complete, you | will have total gratitude, for you will see that everything has |
| W1:195.8 | your forgiveness is complete, you will have total gratitude, for you | will see that everything has earned the right to love by being |
| W1:195.10 | Our gratitude | will pave the way to Him and shorten our learning time by more than |
| W1:196.1 | When this is firmly understood and kept in full awareness, you | will not attempt to harm yourself nor make your body slave to |
| W1:196.1 | attempt to harm yourself nor make your body slave to vengeance. You | will not attack yourself, and you will realize that to attack another |
| W1:196.1 | your body slave to vengeance. You will not attack yourself, and you | will realize that to attack another is but to attack yourself. You |
| W1:196.1 | will realize that to attack another is but to attack yourself. You | will be free of the insane belief that to attack a brother saves |
| W1:196.1 | the insane belief that to attack a brother saves yourself. And you | will understand his safety is your own, and in his healing you are |
| W1:196.2 | Perhaps at first you | will not understand how mercy, limitless and with all things held in |
| W1:196.3 | not an ego. For the ways in which the ego would distort the truth | will not deceive you longer. You will not believe you are a body to |
| W1:196.3 | the ego would distort the truth will not deceive you longer. You | will not believe you are a body to be crucified. And you will see |
| W1:196.3 | longer. You will not believe you are a body to be crucified. And you | will see within today's idea the light of resurrection, looking past |
| W1:196.6 | of God is real to anyone who thinks this thought is true. And he | will not perceive its foolishness nor even see that it is there so |
| W1:196.7 | it at all, its form must first be changed at least as much as | will permit fear of retaliation to abate and the responsibility |
| W1:196.8 | Our next steps | will be easy if you take this one today. From there we go ahead quite |
| W1:196.12 | but you your mind can try to crucify. Yet your redemption, too, | will come from you. |
| W1:197.1 | which would cheat you of defenses to ensure that when He strikes He | will not fail to kill. |
| W1:197.2 | to you. See yourself as bound, and bars become your home. Nor | will you leave the prison house or claim your strength until guilt |
| W1:197.5 | only to yourself, and what belongs to God must be His own. Yet you | will never realize His gifts are sure, eternal, changeless, |
| W1:197.6 | Withdraw the gifts you give, and you | will think that what is given you has been withdrawn. But learn to |
| W1:197.6 | little while before He snatches them away again in death. For death | will have no meaning for you then. |
| W1:197.7 | God, and He gives thanks for you unto Himself. To everyone who lives | will Christ yet come, for everyone must live and breathe in Him. His |
| W1:197.7 | and breathe in Him. His Being in His Father is secure because Their | will is one. Their gratitude to all They have created has no end, for |
| W1:198.1 | Then does illusion cease to have effects, and all it seemed to have | will be undone. Then are you free, for freedom is your gift, and you |
| W1:198.6 | His words | will work. His words will save. His words contain all hope, all |
| W1:198.6 | His words will work. His words | will save. His words contain all hope, all blessing and all joy that |
| W1:198.6 | have heard the song of Heaven, for these are the words in which all | will merge as one at last. And as this one will fade away, the Word |
| W1:198.6 | the words in which all will merge as one at last. And as this one | will fade away, the Word of God will come to take its place, for it |
| W1:198.6 | as one at last. And as this one will fade away, the Word of God | will come to take its place, for it will be remembered then and loved. |
| W1:198.6 | will fade away, the Word of God will come to take its place, for it | will be remembered then and loved. |
| W1:198.7 | Son and to his Father. You may think They have accepted, but if you | will look again upon the place where you beheld Their blood, you will |
| W1:198.7 | you will look again upon the place where you beheld Their blood, you | will perceive a miracle instead. |
| W1:198.15 | that we have come this far and recognize that He Who brought us here | will not forsake us now. For He would give to us the gift that God |
| W1:199.4 | need of it except the need the Holy Spirit sees. For this, the body | will appear as useful form for what the mind must do. It thus becomes |
| W1:199.5 | a part of every practice period you take. There is no thought that | will not gain thereby in power to help the world, and none which will |
| W1:199.5 | will not gain thereby in power to help the world, and none which | will not gain in added gifts to you as well. We sound the call of |
| W1:199.8 | with you in it; the world is blessed along with you; God's Son | will weep no more, and Heaven offers thanks for the increase of joy |
| W1:200.1 | Seek you no further. You | will not find peace except the peace of God. Accept this fact, and |
| W1:200.5 | mind about the purpose of the world if you would find escape. You | will be bound till all the world is seen by you as blessed and |
| W1:200.7 | He has one Son, who cannot make a world in opposition to God's | Will and to his own, which is the same as His. What could he hope to |
| W1:200.8 | Peace is the bridge that everyone | will cross to leave this world behind. But peace begins within the |
| W1:200.9 | and needless wasted time on thorny byways. God alone is sure, and He | will guide our footsteps. He will not desert His Son in need, nor let |
| W1:200.9 | byways. God alone is sure, and He will guide our footsteps. He | will not desert His Son in need, nor let him stray forever from his |
| W1:200.9 | nor let him stray forever from his home. The Father calls; the Son | will hear. And that is all there is to what appears to be a world |
| W1:200.11 | cannot be found in them. The peace of God is ours, and only this | will we accept and want. Peace be to us today. For we have found a |
| W1:R6.6 | We | will attempt to get beyond all words and special forms of practicing |
| W1:R6.10 | you thought. Beyond such special applications of each day's idea, we | will add but few formal expressions for specific thoughts to aid your |
| W1:R6.11 | teach you what to do and say and think each time you turn to Him. He | will not fail to be available to you each time you call to Him to |
| W1:202.1 | [182] I | will be still a moment and go home. Why would I choose to stay an |
| W1:208.1 | [188] The peace of God is shining in me now. I | will be still and let the earth be still along with me. And in that |
| W1:208.1 | and let the earth be still along with me. And in that stillness, we | will find the peace of God. It is within my heart, which witnesses to |
| W1:210.1 | not a thought of God, but one I thought apart from Him and from His | Will. His Will is joy and only joy for His beloved Son. And that I |
| W1:210.1 | of God, but one I thought apart from Him and from His Will. His | Will is joy and only joy for His beloved Son. And that I choose |
| W1:212.1 | God has given me can offer freedom. Only this I seek, and only this | will I accept as mine. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as |
| W1:216.1 | I do unto myself. If I attack, I suffer. But if I forgive, salvation | will be given me. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as God |
| W2:I.1 | Words | will mean little now. We use them but as guides on which we do not |
| W2:I.2 | wait in quiet expectation for our God and Father. He has promised He | will take the final step Himself. And we are sure His promises are |
| W2:I.2 | kept. We have come far along the road, and now we wait for Him. We | will continue spending time with Him each morning and at night, as |
| W2:I.2 | with Him each morning and at night, as long as makes us happy. We | will not consider time a matter of duration now. We use as much as we |
| W2:I.2 | not consider time a matter of duration now. We use as much as we | will need for the result that we desire. Nor will we forget our |
| W2:I.2 | We use as much as we will need for the result that we desire. Nor | will we forget our hourly remembrance in between, calling to God when |
| W2:I.3 | We | will continue with a central thought for all the days to come. And we |
| W2:I.3 | continue with a central thought for all the days to come. And we | will use that thought to introduce our times of rest and calm our |
| W2:I.3 | to introduce our times of rest and calm our minds at need. Yet we | will not content ourselves with simple practicing in the remaining |
| W2:I.3 | promised. We have called on Him, and He has promised that His Son | will not remain unanswered when he calls His Name. |
| W2:I.4 | earned Him the invitation that He seeks to make us happy? We | will offer it, and it will be accepted. So our times with Him will |
| W2:I.4 | invitation that He seeks to make us happy? We will offer it, and it | will be accepted. So our times with Him will now be spent. We say the |
| W2:I.4 | We will offer it, and it will be accepted. So our times with Him | will now be spent. We say the words of invitation that His Voice |
| W2:I.5 | He has willed to come to you when you have recognized it is your | will He do so. And you could have never come this far unless you saw, |
| W2:I.5 | never come this far unless you saw, however dimly, that it is your | will. |
| W2:I.7 | not know the way, but You did not forget us. And we know that You | will not forget us now. We ask but that Your ancient promises be kept |
| W2:I.7 | us now. We ask but that Your ancient promises be kept which are Your | will to keep. We will with You in asking this. The Father and the |
| W2:I.7 | that Your ancient promises be kept which are Your will to keep. We | will with You in asking this. The Father and the Son, Whose holy will |
| W2:I.7 | We will with You in asking this. The Father and the Son, Whose holy | will created all that is, can fail in nothing. In this certainty, we |
| W2:I.7 | last few steps to You and rest in confidence upon Your Love, Which | will not fail the Son who calls to You. |
| W2:I.9 | across the wide horizons of our minds. A moment more, and it | will rise again. A moment more, and we who are God's Sons are safely |
| W2:I.10 | is the need for practice almost done. For in this final section we | will come to understand that we need only call to God and all |
| W2:I.10 | of judging, we need but be still and let all things be healed. We | will accept the way God's plan will end, as we received the way it |
| W2:I.10 | and let all things be healed. We will accept the way God's plan | will end, as we received the way it started. Now it is complete. This |
| W2:I.11 | From time to time, instructions on a theme of special relevance | will intersperse our daily lessons and the periods of wordless, deep |
| W2:WF.1 | therefore lets it go. What then is free to take its place is now the | Will of God. |
| W2:WF.2 | An unforgiving thought is one which makes a judgment that it | will not raise to doubt, although it is not true. The mind is closed |
| W2:WF.2 | not raise to doubt, although it is not true. The mind is closed and | will not be released. The thought protects projection, tightening its |
| W2:221.1 | to hear Your Voice in silence and in certainty and love, sure You | will hear my call and answer me. |
| W2:221.2 | in quiet. God is here because we wait together. I am sure that He | will speak to you, and you will hear. Accept my confidence, for it is |
| W2:221.2 | we wait together. I am sure that He will speak to you, and you | will hear. Accept my confidence, for it is yours. Our minds are |
| W2:225.2 | follow it in peace together. You have reached your hand to me, and I | will never leave you. We are one, and it is but this oneness that we |
| W2:226.1 | of the world. If I believe it has a value as I see it now, so | will it still remain for me. But if I see no value in the world as I |
| W2:226.1 | it, nothing that I want to keep as mine or search for as a goal, it | will depart from me. For I have not sought for illusions to replace |
| W2:227.1 | Father, it is today that I am free because my | will is Yours. I thought to make another will. Yet nothing that I |
| W2:227.1 | that I am free because my will is Yours. I thought to make another | will. Yet nothing that I thought apart from You exists. And I am free |
| W2:227.1 | from my mind. This is my holy instant of release. Father, I know my | will is one with Yours. |
| W2:229.1 | Love has prevailed. So still it waited for my coming home that I | will turn away no longer from the holy face of Christ. And what I |
| W2:230.2 | me. I need but call on You to find the peace You gave. It is Your | will that gave it to Your Son. |
| W2:WS.1 | way to Him at last. It cannot but be kept. It guarantees that time | will have an end, and all the thoughts that have been born in time |
| W2:WS.1 | will have an end, and all the thoughts that have been born in time | will end as well. God's Word is given every mind which thinks that it |
| W2:WS.1 | is given every mind which thinks that it has separate thoughts and | will replace these thoughts of conflict with the thought of peace. |
| W2:231.2 | This is your | will, my brother. And you share this will with me, and with the One |
| W2:231.2 | This is your will, my brother. And you share this | will with me, and with the One as well Who is our Father. To remember |
| W2:231.2 | To remember Him is Heaven. This we seek. And only this is what it | will be given us to find. |
| W2:232.1 | my hourly thanksgiving that You have remained with me and always | will be there to hear my call to You and answer me. As evening comes, |
| W2:233.1 | give me Your own. I give You all my acts as well, that I may do Your | will instead of seeking goals which cannot be obtained and wasting |
| W2:233.1 | obtained and wasting time in vain imaginings. Today I come to You. I | will step back and merely follow You. Be You the Guide and I the |
| W2:233.2 | Today we have one Guide to lead us on. And as we walk together, we | will give this day to Him with no reserve at all. This is His day. |
| W2:234.1 | Today we | will anticipate the time when dreams of sin and guilt are gone and we |
| W2:235.1 | and merely watch them disappear. I need but keep in mind my Father's | Will for me is only happiness to find that only happiness has come to |
| W2:236.1 | my mind, which I alone can rule. And thus I set it free to do the | Will of God. |
| W2:237.1 | Today I | will accept the truth about myself. I will arise in glory and allow |
| W2:237.1 | Today I will accept the truth about myself. I | will arise in glory and allow the light in me to shine upon the world |
| W2:WIW.1 | perception. It is born of error, and it has not left its source. It | will remain no longer than the thought which gave it birth is |
| W2:WIW.1 | thought of separation has been changed to one of true forgiveness | will the world be seen in quite another light, and one which leads to |
| W2:241.1 | set free. This is the time of hope for countless millions. They | will be united now as you forgive them all. For I will be forgiven by |
| W2:241.1 | millions. They will be united now as you forgive them all. For I | will be forgiven by you today. |
| W2:242.1 | I | will not lead my life alone today. I do not understand the world. And |
| W2:242.2 | have received by us. You know all our desires and our needs. And You | will give us everything we want and that will help us find the way to |
| W2:242.2 | and our needs. And You will give us everything we want and that | will help us find the way to You. |
| W2:243.1 | I | will be honest with myself today. I will not think that I already |
| W2:243.1 | I will be honest with myself today. I | will not think that I already know what must remain beyond my present |
| W2:243.1 | that I already know what must remain beyond my present grasp. I | will not think I understand the whole from bits of my perception, |
| W2:244.1 | for You are there with him. He need but call upon Your Name, and he | will recollect his safety and Your Love, for they are one. How can he |
| W2:244.2 | For what can come to threaten God Himself or make afraid what | will forever be a part of Him? |
| W2:245.1 | me bring Your peace with me. For I would save Your Son as is Your | Will, that I may come to recognize my Self. |
| W2:246.2 | I | will accept the way You choose for me to come to You, my Father. For |
| W2:246.2 | the way You choose for me to come to You, my Father. For in that | will I succeed because it is Your Will. And I would recognize that |
| W2:246.2 | to You, my Father. For in that will I succeed because it is Your | Will. And I would recognize that what You will is what I will as well |
| W2:246.2 | succeed because it is Your Will. And I would recognize that what You | will is what I will as well and only that. And so I choose to love |
| W2:246.2 | it is Your Will. And I would recognize that what You will is what I | will as well and only that. And so I choose to love Your Son. Amen. |
| W2:247.1 | Sin is the symbol of attack. Behold it anywhere, and I | will suffer. For forgiveness is the only means whereby Christ's |
| W2:WIS.2 | Truth can be its aim as well as lies. The senses then | will seek instead for witnesses to what is true. |
| W2:WIS.3 | lost the Son He loves, with but corruption to complete Himself, His | Will forever overcome by death, love slain by hate, and peace to be |
| W2:WIS.5 | How long, oh Son of God, | will you maintain the game of sin? Shall we not put away these |
| W2:WIS.5 | Shall we not put away these sharp-edged children's toys? How soon | will you be ready to come home? Perhaps today? There is no sin. |
| W2:253.1 | For thus am I led past this world to my creations, children of my | Will, in Heaven where my holy Self abides with them and Him Who has |
| W2:253.2 | and one with You. My Self, Which rules the universe, is but Your | will in perfect union with my own, which can but offer glad assent to |
| W2:254.1 | this: I come to You to ask You for the truth. And truth is but Your | Will, which I would share with You today. |
| W2:254.2 | hallowed by His Love, God speaks to us and tells us of our | will, as we have chosen to remember Him. |
| W2:257.2 | means for our salvation. Let us not forget that we can have no | will but Yours today. And thus our purpose must be Yours as well if |
| W2:257.2 | our purpose must be Yours as well if we would reach the peace You | will for us. |
| W2:WIB.2 | The body | will not stay. Yet this he sees as double “safety.” For the Son of |
| W2:WIB.3 | the purpose given it. But we can change the purpose which the body | will obey by changing what we think that it is for. |
| W2:WIB.5 | You | will identify with what you think will make you safe. Whatever it may |
| W2:WIB.5 | You will identify with what you think | will make you safe. Whatever it may be, you will believe that it is |
| W2:WIB.5 | with what you think will make you safe. Whatever it may be, you | will believe that it is one with you. Your safety lies in truth and |
| W2:261.1 | I | will identify with what I think is refuge and security. I will behold |
| W2:261.1 | I will identify with what I think is refuge and security. I | will behold myself where I perceive my strength and think I live |
| W2:261.1 | In Him is my Identity. In Him is everlasting peace. And only there | will I remember who I really am. |
| W2:264.2 | in this today. This is salvation's prayer. Must we not join in what | will save the world along with us? |
| W2:265.2 | and mine as well. Let me remember that they are the same, and I | will see creation's gentleness. |
| W2:268.1 | from its unity and thus to let it be as You created it. For thus | will I be able, too, to recognize my Self as You created me. In Love |
| W2:268.1 | my Self as You created me. In Love was I created, and in Love | will I remain forever. What can frighten me when I let all things be |
| W2:270.1 | world. How glorious and gracious is this world! Yet how much more | will I perceive in it than sight can give. The world forgiven |
| W2:270.1 | time, which ends forever as Your memory returns to him. And now his | will is one with Yours. His function now is but Your own, and every |
| W2:270.2 | The quiet of today | will bless our hearts, and through them peace will come to everyone. |
| W2:270.2 | The quiet of today will bless our hearts, and through them peace | will come to everyone. Christ is our eyes today. And through His |
| W2:WIC.2 | separation is no more than an illusion of despair. For hope forever | will abide in Him. Your mind is part of His and His of yours. He is |
| W2:WIC.3 | only part of you that has reality in truth. The rest is dreams. Yet | will these dreams be given unto Christ to fade before His glory and |
| W2:WIC.4 | dreams and bids them come to Him to be translated into truth. He | will exchange them for the final dream which God appointed as the end |
| W2:WIC.5 | And how long | will this holy face be seen, when it is but the symbol that the time |
| W2:WIC.5 | find Christ's face and look on nothing else. As we behold His glory | will we know we have no need of learning or perception or of time, or |
| W2:272.1 | Father, the truth belongs to me. My home is set in Heaven by Your | will and mine. Can dreams content me? Can illusions bring me |
| W2:272.1 | bring me happiness? What but Your memory can satisfy Your Son? I | will accept no less than You have given me. I am surrounded by Your |
| W2:272.2 | dreams when Heaven can be chosen just as easily as hell and love | will happily replace all fear. |
| W2:274.1 | friend. Through this I am redeemed. Through this as well the truth | will enter where illusions were, light will replace all darkness, and |
| W2:274.1 | this as well the truth will enter where illusions were, light | will replace all darkness, and Your Son will know he is as You |
| W2:274.1 | where illusions were, light will replace all darkness, and Your Son | will know he is as You created him. |
| W2:274.2 | us today from Him Who is our Father. Give this day to Him and there | will be no fear today because the day is given unto Love. |
| W2:275.1 | than any other day. Yet has this day been chosen as the time when we | will seek and hear and learn and understand. Join me in hearing. For |
| W2:275.2 | all things to You. I need be anxious over nothing. For Your Voice | will tell me what to do and where to go, to whom to speak, and what |
| W2:277.2 | Son. And he cannot be bound unless God's Truth can lie and God can | will that He deceive Himself. |
| W2:279.2 | I | will accept Your promises today and give my faith to them. My Father |
| W2:WIHS.3 | what is forever unattainable. And if you offer them to Him, He | will employ the means you made for exile to restore your mind to |
| W2:WIHS.4 | and be restored to sanity and peace of mind. Without forgiveness | will your dreams remain to terrify you. And the memory of all your |
| W2:WIHS.4 | remain to terrify you. And the memory of all your Father's Love | will not return to signify the end of dreams has come. |
| W2:281.2 | I | will not hurt myself today. For I am far beyond all pain. My Father |
| W2:285.1 | God to come to me. I ask but them to come and realize my invitation | will be answered by the thoughts to which they have been sent by me. |
| W2:285.1 | answered by the thoughts to which they have been sent by me. And I | will ask for only joyous things the instant I accept my holiness. For |
| W2:286.2 | The stillness of today | will give us hope that we have found the way and traveled far along |
| W2:286.2 | the way and traveled far along it to a wholly certain goal. Today we | will not doubt the end which God Himself has promised us. We trust in |
| W2:288.1 | because the past is gone. Let me not cherish it within my heart or I | will lose the way to walk to You. My brother is my savior. Let me not |
| W2:288.2 | Forgive me, then, today. And you | will know you have forgiven me if you behold your brother in the |
| W2:290.2 | ask Your strength to hold me up today while I but seek to do Your | Will. You cannot fail to hear me, Father. What I ask have You already |
| W2:290.2 | Father. What I ask have You already given me, and I am sure that I | will see my happiness today. |
| W2:292.1 | Yet it is up to us when this is reached—how long we let an alien | will appear to be opposing His. And while we think this will is real, |
| W2:292.1 | let an alien will appear to be opposing His. And while we think this | will is real, we will not find the end He has appointed as the |
| W2:292.1 | appear to be opposing His. And while we think this will is real, we | will not find the end He has appointed as the outcome of all problems |
| W2:292.1 | every situation that we meet. Yet is the ending certain. For God's | Will is done in earth and Heaven. We will seek and we will find |
| W2:292.1 | the ending certain. For God's Will is done in earth and Heaven. We | will seek and we will find according to His Will, which guarantees |
| W2:292.1 | For God's Will is done in earth and Heaven. We will seek and we | will find according to His Will, which guarantees that our will is |
| W2:292.1 | in earth and Heaven. We will seek and we will find according to His | Will, which guarantees that our will is done. |
| W2:292.1 | and we will find according to His Will, which guarantees that our | will is done. |
| W2:296.1 | set it free that I may find escape and hear the Word Your holy Voice | will speak to me today. |
| W2:297.1 | to be the way I live within a world that needs salvation and that | will be saved as I accept Atonement for myself. |
| W2:298.1 | instead what God establishes as mine, sure that in that alone I | will be saved, sure that I go through fear to meet my Love. |
| W2:299.1 | God my Father, Who created it, acknowledges my holiness as His. Our | will together understands it. And our will together knows that it is |
| W2:299.1 | my holiness as His. Our will together understands it. And our | will together knows that it is so. |
| W2:299.2 | Itself created me, and I can know my Source because it is Your | will that You be known. |
| W2:WISC.3 | the Last Judgment, in which learning ends in one last summary that | will extend beyond itself and reaches up to God. The Second Coming is |
| W2:WISC.3 | to be returned to Spirit in the name of true creation and the | Will of God. |
| W2:WISC.4 | time itself cannot affect. For everyone who ever came to die or yet | will come or who is present now is equally released from what he |
| W2:WISC.5 | Pray that this Second Coming | will be soon, but do not rest with that. It needs your eyes and ears |
| W2:WISC.5 | all it needs your willingness. Let us rejoice that we can do God's | Will and join together in its holy light. Behold, the Son of God is |
| W2:301.1 | is my home because I judge it not. And therefore is it only what You | will. Let me today behold it uncondemned through happy eyes |
| W2:301.1 | Let me see Your world instead of mine. And all the tears I shed | will be forgotten, for their source is gone. Father, I will not judge |
| W2:301.1 | tears I shed will be forgotten, for their source is gone. Father, I | will not judge Your world today. |
| W2:301.2 | understand. But we have learned the world we saw was false, and we | will look upon God's world today. |
| W2:304.1 | bless the world by looking on it through the eyes of Christ. And I | will look upon the certain signs that all my sins have been forgiven |
| W2:305.2 | Father, the peace of Christ is given us because it is Your | will that we be saved. Help us today but to accept Your gift and |
| W2:307.1 | Father, Your | will is mine, and only that. There is no other will for me to have. |
| W2:307.1 | Father, Your will is mine, and only that. There is no other | will for me to have. Let me not try to make another will, for it is |
| W2:307.1 | is no other will for me to have. Let me not try to make another | will, for it is senseless and will cause me pain. Your will alone can |
| W2:307.1 | have. Let me not try to make another will, for it is senseless and | will cause me pain. Your will alone can bring me happiness, and only |
| W2:307.1 | make another will, for it is senseless and will cause me pain. Your | will alone can bring me happiness, and only Yours exists. If I would |
| W2:307.1 | exists. If I would have what only You can give, I must accept Your | will for me and enter into peace where conflict is impossible. Your |
| W2:307.1 | conflict is impossible. Your Son is one with You in being and in | will, and nothing contradicts the holy truth that I remain as You |
| W2:307.2 | into a state where conflict cannot come because we join our holy | will with God's in recognition that they are but one. |
| W2:309.1 | Within me is eternal innocence because it is God's | Will that it be there forever and forever. I, His Son, whose will is |
| W2:309.1 | God's Will that it be there forever and forever. I, His Son, whose | will is limitless as is His own, can will no change in this. For to |
| W2:309.1 | and forever. I, His Son, whose will is limitless as is His own, can | will no change in this. For to deny my Father's Will is to deny my |
| W2:309.1 | as is His own, can will no change in this. For to deny my Father's | Will is to deny my own. To look within is but to find my will as God |
| W2:309.1 | my Father's Will is to deny my own. To look within is but to find my | will as God created it and as it is. I fear to look within because I |
| W2:309.1 | and as it is. I fear to look within because I think I made another | will which is not true and made it real. Yet it has no effects. |
| W2:310.1 | spend with You, as You have chosen all my days should be. And what I | will experience is not of time at all. The joy that comes to me is |
| W2:310.1 | of days nor hours, for it comes from Heaven to Your Son. This day | will be Your sweet reminder to remember You, Your gracious calling to |
| W2:310.1 | holy Son, the sign Your grace has come to me and that it is Your | will that I be free today. |
| W2:WILJ.2 | in which the world began go with it. Bodies now are useless and | will therefore fade away because the Son of God is limitless. |
| W2:WILJ.4 | give it welcome. And the world awaits your glad acceptance, which | will set it free. |
| W2:311.1 | but make a gift of it to Him Who has a different use for it. He | will relieve you of the agony of all the judgments you have made |
| W2:312.2 | set free from all the judgments I have made. Father, this is Your | will for me today, and therefore it must be my goal as well. |
| W2:313.1 | so that fear has gone and where it was is love invited in. And love | will come wherever it is asked. This vision is Your gift. The eyes of |
| W2:314.1 | idols and its images, and being formless, it has no effects. Death | will not claim the future now, for life is now its goal, and all the |
| W2:314.2 | in Your hands, leaving behind our past mistakes and sure that You | will keep Your present promises and guide the future in their holy |
| W2:316.2 | today. I do not recognize them. Yet I trust that You Who gave them | will provide the means by which I can behold them, see their worth, |
| W2:317.1 | and gladly go the way my Father's plan appointed me to go, then | will I recognize salvation is already here, already given all my |
| W2:319.1 | arrogance opposes truth. But where there is no arrogance, the truth | will come immediately and fill up the space the ego left unoccupied |
| W2:319.1 | ego thinks that what one gains totality must lose. And yet it is the | Will of God I learn that what one gains is given unto all. |
| W2:319.2 | Father, Your | Will is total. And the goal that stems from it shares its totality. |
| W2:319.2 | of the world could You have given me? And what but this could be the | will my Self has shared with You? |
| W2:320.1 | What he wills with his Creator and Redeemer must be done. His holy | will can never be denied because his Father shines upon his mind and |
| W2:320.1 | to whom all this is given. I am he in whom the power of my Father's | Will abides. |
| W2:320.2 | Your | Will can do all things in me and then extend to all the world as well |
| W2:320.2 | to all the world as well through me. There is no limit on Your | Will. And so all power has been given to Your Son. |
| W2:WICR.1 | There was no time when all that It created was not there. Nor | will there be a time when anything that It created suffers any |
| W2:WICR.2 | share in power to create. What God has willed to be forever one | will still be one when time is over and will not be changed |
| W2:WICR.2 | has willed to be forever one will still be one when time is over and | will not be changed throughout the course of time, remaining as it |
| W2:WICR.3 | the truth. Creation is the holy Son of God, for in creation is His | Will complete in every aspect, making every part container of the |
| W2:WICR.3 | is forever guaranteed inviolate, forever held within His holy | will beyond all possibility of harm, of separation, imperfection, and |
| W2:WICR.4 | our function be only to let this memory return, only to let God's | Will be done on earth, only to be restored to sanity, and to be but |
| W2:321.1 | I trust in You. You Who endowed me with my freedom as Your holy Son | will not be lost to me. Your Voice directs me. And the way to You is |
| W2:321.1 | to me at last. Father, my freedom is in You alone. Father, it is my | will that I return. |
| W2:321.2 | Today we answer for the world, which | will be freed along with us. How glad are we to find our freedom |
| W2:324.1 | but choose to wander off a while and then return. Your loving Voice | will always call me back and guide my feet aright. My brothers all |
| W2:326.1 | still abide, and all Your attributes abide in me because it is Your | will to have a Son so like his Cause that Cause and Its Effect are |
| W2:326.1 | so on earth. Your plan I follow here, and at the end I know that You | will gather Your Effects into the tranquil Heaven of Your Love, where |
| W2:326.1 | Your Effects into the tranquil Heaven of Your Love, where earth | will disappear and separate thoughts unite in glory as the Son of God. |
| W2:326.2 | first transformed, and then, forgiven, fade entirely into God's holy | Will. |
| W2:327.1 | on the basis of an unsupported faith. For God has promised He | will hear my call and answer me Himself. Let me but learn from my |
| W2:327.1 | and faith in Him must surely come to me. This is the faith that | will endure and take me farther and still farther on the road that |
| W2:327.1 | farther and still farther on the road that leads to Him. For thus I | will be sure that He has not abandoned me and loves me still, |
| W2:327.2 | Father, I thank You that Your promises | will never fail in my experience if I but test them out. Let me |
| W2:328.1 | upside-down until we listen to the Voice of God. It seems that we | will gain autonomy but by our striving to be separate and that our |
| W2:328.1 | is not what our Father wills for us, nor is there any second to His | Will. To join with His is but to find our own. And since our will is |
| W2:328.1 | to His Will. To join with His is but to find our own. And since our | will is His, it is to Him that we must go to recognize our will. |
| W2:328.1 | since our will is His, it is to Him that we must go to recognize our | will. |
| W2:328.2 | There is no | will but Yours. And I am glad that nothing I imagine contradicts what |
| W2:328.2 | nothing I imagine contradicts what You would have me be. It is Your | will that I be wholly safe, eternally at peace. And happily I share |
| W2:328.2 | that I be wholly safe, eternally at peace. And happily I share that | will which You, my Father, gave as part of me. |
| W2:329.1 | Father, I thought I wandered from Your | Will, defied it, broke its laws, and interposed a second will more |
| W2:329.1 | from Your Will, defied it, broke its laws, and interposed a second | will more powerful than Yours. Yet what I am in truth is but Your |
| W2:329.1 | will more powerful than Yours. Yet what I am in truth is but Your | Will, extended and extending. This am I. And this will never change. |
| W2:329.1 | truth is but Your Will, extended and extending. This am I. And this | will never change. As You are One, so am I one with You. And this I |
| W2:329.1 | One, so am I one with You. And this I chose in my creation, where my | will became forever one with Yours. That choice was made for all |
| W2:329.1 | It cannot change and be in opposition to itself. Father, my | will is Yours. And I am safe, untroubled and serene in endless joy |
| W2:329.1 | I am safe, untroubled and serene in endless joy because it is Your | will that it be so. |
| W2:329.2 | Today we | will accept our union with each other and our Source. We have no will |
| W2:329.2 | we will accept our union with each other and our Source. We have no | will apart from His, and all of us are one because His Will is shared |
| W2:329.2 | We have no will apart from His, and all of us are one because His | Will is shared by all of us. Through it we recognize that we are one. |
| W2:330.1 | restored to Spirit and extends its freedom and its joy, as is the | Will of God united with its own. The Self which God created cannot |
| W2:WIE.1 | in a body, doomed to suffer and to end its life in death. It is the | will that sees the Will of God as enemy and takes a form in which It |
| W2:WIE.1 | to suffer and to end its life in death. It is the will that sees the | Will of God as enemy and takes a form in which It is denied. The ego |
| W2:WIE.2 | victor over God Himself, and in its terrible autonomy, it “sees” the | Will of God has been destroyed. It dreams of punishment and trembles |
| W2:WIE.5 | Yet | will one lily of forgiveness change the darkness into light, the |
| W2:WIE.5 | the altar to illusions to the shrine of Life Itself. And peace | will be restored forever to the holy minds which God created as His |
| W2:331.1 | cruelty. How could I think that Love has left Itself? There is no | will except the will of Love. Fear is a dream and has no will that |
| W2:331.1 | could I think that Love has left Itself? There is no will except the | will of Love. Fear is a dream and has no will that can conflict with |
| W2:331.1 | There is no will except the will of Love. Fear is a dream and has no | will that can conflict with Yours. Conflict is sleep, and peace |
| W2:331.1 | is illusion; life, Eternal Truth. There is no opposition to Your | Will. There is no conflict, for my will is Yours. |
| W2:331.1 | There is no opposition to Your Will. There is no conflict, for my | will is Yours. |
| W2:331.2 | Forgiveness shows us that God's | Will is one and that we share it. Let us look upon the holy sights |
| W2:333.2 | evil dreams. No light but this can save the world. For this alone | will never fail in anything, being Your gift to Your beloved Son. |
| W2:334.1 | I | will not wait another day to find the treasures which my Father |
| W2:334.2 | bring him peace? Today I would behold my brother sinless. This Your | Will for me, for thus will I behold my sinlessness. |
| W2:334.2 | I would behold my brother sinless. This Your Will for me, for thus | will I behold my sinlessness. |
| W2:335.1 | brother's sinlessness shows me that I would look upon my own. And I | will see it, having chosen to behold my brother in its holy light. |
| W2:338.1 | love. He crucified himself. Yet God has planned that His beloved Son | will be redeemed. |
| W2:338.2 | Your plan is sure, my Father—only Yours. All other plans | will fail. And I will have thoughts that will frighten me until I |
| W2:338.2 | is sure, my Father—only Yours. All other plans will fail. And I | will have thoughts that will frighten me until I learn that You have |
| W2:338.2 | only Yours. All other plans will fail. And I will have thoughts that | will frighten me until I learn that You have given me the only |
| W2:338.2 | given me the only Thought which leads me to salvation. Mine alone | will fail and lead me nowhere. But the Thought You gave me promises |
| W2:339.1 | can think that joy is painful, threatening, and dangerous. Everyone | will receive what he requests. But he can be confused indeed about |
| W2:339.1 | that he would want when he receives it? He has asked for what | will frighten him and bring him suffering. Let us resolve today to |
| W2:340.1 | Father, I thank You for today and for the freedom I am certain it | will bring. This day is holy, for today Your Son will be redeemed. |
| W2:340.1 | I am certain it will bring. This day is holy, for today Your Son | will be redeemed. His suffering is done. For he will hear Your Voice |
| W2:340.1 | for today Your Son will be redeemed. His suffering is done. For he | will hear Your Voice directing him to find Christ's vision through |
| W2:340.2 | today. Our Father has redeemed His Son this day! Not one of us but | will be saved today. Not one who will remain in fear, and none the |
| W2:340.2 | His Son this day! Not one of us but will be saved today. Not one who | will remain in fear, and none the Father will not gather to Himself, |
| W2:340.2 | be saved today. Not one who will remain in fear, and none the Father | will not gather to Himself, awake in Heaven in the Heart of Love. |
| W2:WIM.4 | to conceive of what it cannot see and does not understand. Yet faith | will bring its witnesses to show that what it rested on is really |
| W2:WIM.4 | to show that what it rested on is really there. And thus the miracle | will justify your faith in it and show it rested on a world more real |
| W2:344.1 | I had, I found an empty place where nothing ever was or is or | will be. Who can share a dream? And what can an illusion offer me? |
| W2:344.1 | a dream? And what can an illusion offer me? Yet he whom I forgive | will give me gifts beyond the worth of anything on earth. Let my |
| W2:345.2 | The light has come to offer miracles to bless the tired world. It | will find rest today, for we will offer what we have received. |
| W2:345.2 | miracles to bless the tired world. It will find rest today, for we | will offer what we have received. |
| W2:346.1 | of all things. And so begins the day I share with You as I | will share eternity, for time has stepped aside today. I do not seek |
| W2:346.1 | has stepped aside today. I do not seek the things of time, and so I | will not look upon them. What I seek today transcends all laws of |
| W2:346.2 | And when the evening comes today, we | will remember nothing but the peace of God. For we will learn today |
| W2:346.2 | comes today, we will remember nothing but the peace of God. For we | will learn today what peace is ours when we forget all things except |
| W2:347.1 | Father, I want what goes against my | will and do not want what is my will to have. Straighten my mind, my |
| W2:347.1 | Father, I want what goes against my will and do not want what is my | will to have. Straighten my mind, my Father. It is sick. But You have |
| W2:347.1 | would hide from my awareness. Let Him judge today. I do not know my | will, but He is sure it is Your own. And He will speak for me, and |
| W2:347.1 | today. I do not know my will, but He is sure it is Your own. And He | will speak for me, and call Your miracle to come to me. |
| W2:348.2 | that He would have us do. And only that we choose to be our | will, as well as His. |
| W2:349.1 | obey the law of love and give what I would find and make my own. It | will be given me because I have chosen it as the gift I want to give. |
| W2:350.1 | result. Therefore, my Father, I would turn to You. Only Your memory | will set me free. And only my forgiveness teaches me to let Your |
| W2:350.2 | And as we gather miracles from Him, we | will indeed be grateful. For as we remember Him, His Son will be |
| W2:350.2 | Him, we will indeed be grateful. For as we remember Him, His Son | will be restored to us in the Reality of Love. |
| W2:WAI.3 | do not seek a function that is past the gates of Heaven. Knowledge | will return when we have done our part. We are concerned only with |
| W2:WAI.5 | And as he sees the gate of Heaven stand open before him, he | will enter in and disappear into the Heart of God. |
| W2:352.1 | alone and judges not. Through this I come to You. Judgment | will bind my eyes and make me blind. Yet love, reflected in |
| W2:353.1 | I give all that is mine today to Christ to use in any way that best | will serve the purpose that I share with Him. Nothing is mine alone, |
| W2:355.1 | Why should I wait, my Father, for the joy You promised me? For You | will keep Your Word You gave Your Son in exile. I am sure my treasure |
| W2:356.1 | problem, nor what he believes he has become. He is Your Son, and You | will answer him. The miracle reflects Your Love, and thus it answers |
| W2:359.1 | Father, today we | will forgive Your world and let creation be Your own. We have |
| W2:FL.1 | Our final lessons | will be left as free of words as possible. We use them but at the |
| W2:FL.3 | to the dream we seek, and not our own. For all that we forgive we | will not fail to recognize as part of God Himself. And thus His |
| W2:FL.5 | We | will not end this year without the gift our Father promised to His |
| W2:FL.6 | him and say, “This is My Son, and all I have is his”? Be certain He | will answer thus, for these are His own Words to you. And more than |
| W2:FL.6 | one ever have, for in these Words is all there is and all that there | will be throughout all time and in eternity. |
| W2:361.1 | And if I need a word to help me, He | will give it to me. If I need a thought, that will He also give. And |
| W2:361.1 | a word to help me, He will give it to me. If I need a thought, that | will He also give. And if I need but stillness and a tranquil, open |
| W2:361.1 | need but stillness and a tranquil, open mind, these are the gifts I | will receive of Him. He is in charge by my request. And He will hear |
| W2:361.1 | gifts I will receive of Him. He is in charge by my request. And He | will hear and answer me because He speaks for God, my Father, and His |
| W2:E.1 | vain. Whatever troubles you, be certain that He has the answer and | will gladly give it to you if you simply turn to Him and ask it of |
| W2:E.1 | give it to you if you simply turn to Him and ask it of Him. He | will not withhold all answers that you need for anything that seems |
| W2:E.1 | doubts. His certainty is yours. You need but ask it of Him, and it | will be given you. |
| W2:E.2 | the course of those whom God has called to Him. Therefore, obey your | will and follow Him Whom you accepted as your Voice, to speak of what |
| W2:E.3 | Self when you retire from the world, to seek Reality instead. He | will direct your efforts, telling you exactly what to do, how to |
| W2:E.4 | every difficulty and all pain that you may think is real. Nor | will He give you pleasures that will pass away, for He gives only the |
| W2:E.4 | pain that you may think is real. Nor will He give you pleasures that | will pass away, for He gives only the eternal and the good. Let Him |
| W2:E.4 | daily to you of your Father and your brother and your Self. He | will continue; now you walk with Him as certain as is He of where you |
| W2:E.5 | The end is certain and the means as well. To this we say “Amen.” We | will be told exactly what God wills for us each time there is a |
| W2:E.5 | what God wills for us each time there is a choice to make. And He | will speak for God and for your Self, thus making sure that hell will |
| W2:E.5 | He will speak for God and for your Self, thus making sure that hell | will claim you not and that each choice you make brings Heaven nearer |
| W2:E.6 | We trust our ways to Him and say “Amen.” In peace we | will continue in His way and trust all things to Him. In confidence |
| W2:E.6 | all things to Him. In confidence we wait His answers, as we ask His | Will in everything we do. He loves God's Son as we would love him, |
| W2:E.6 | and all about. His Love surrounds you, and of this be sure: that I | will never leave you comfortless. |
| M:I.2 | others learn and so do you. The question is not whether you | will teach, for in that there is no choice. The purpose of the course |
| M:1.2 | teachers to speak for it and redeem the world. Many hear it, but few | will answer. But it is all a matter of time. Everyone will answer in |
| M:1.2 | it, but few will answer. But it is all a matter of time. Everyone | will answer in the end, but the end can be a long, long way off. It |
| M:1.4 | hope. There was never a question of outcome, for what can change the | Will of God? But time, with its illusions of change and death, wears |
| M:2.1 | Certain pupils have been assigned to each of God's teachers, and they | will begin to look for him as soon as he has answered the Call. They |
| M:2.1 | chosen for him, because the form of the universal curriculum that he | will teach is best for them in view of their level of understanding. |
| M:2.1 | ready to fulfill theirs. Time waits on his choice but not whom he | will serve. When he is ready to learn, the opportunities to teach |
| M:2.1 | he will serve. When he is ready to learn, the opportunities to teach | will be provided for him. |
| M:2.2 | correction was established and completed simultaneously, for the | Will of God is entirely apart from time. So is all reality, being of |
| M:2.3 | as a new thought, a fresh idea, a different approach. Because your | will is free, you can accept what has already happened at any time |
| M:2.3 | what has already happened at any time you choose, and only then | will you realize that it was always there. As the course emphasizes, |
| M:2.3 | are not free to choose the curriculum or even the form in which you | will learn it. You are free, however, to decide when you want to |
| M:2.4 | too, made an inevitable choice out of an ancient past. God's | Will in everything but seems to take time in the working-out. What |
| M:3.1 | of God. There are no accidents in salvation. Those who are to meet | will meet, because together they have the potential for a holy |
| M:3.2 | situation. Perhaps the seeming strangers in the elevator | will smile to one another; perhaps the man will not scold the child |
| M:3.2 | strangers in the elevator will smile to one another; perhaps the man | will not scold the child for bumping into him; perhaps the students |
| M:3.2 | will not scold the child for bumping into him; perhaps the students | will become friends. Even at the level of the most casual encounter, |
| M:3.2 | lose sight of separate interests, if only for a moment. That moment | will be enough. Salvation has come. |
| M:3.3 | and His plan can have no levels, being a reflection of His | Will. Salvation is always ready and always there. God's teachers work |
| M:3.4 | situation is maximal in the sense that each person involved | will learn the most that he can from the other person at that time. |
| M:3.4 | each has learned the most he can at the time. Yet all who meet | will someday meet again, for it is the destiny of all relationships |
| M:4.1 | of God have they as yet acquired the deeper characteristics that | will establish them as what they are. God gives special gifts to His |
| M:4.5 | at which he can make the shift entirely internally. And so the plan | will sometimes call for changes in what seem to be external |
| M:4.6 | the basis of whether they increase the helpfulness or hamper it. He | will find that many if not most of the things he valued before will |
| M:4.6 | He will find that many if not most of the things he valued before | will merely hinder his ability to transfer what he has learned to new |
| M:4.6 | as they arise. Because he has valued what is really valueless, he | will not generalize the lesson for fear of loss and sacrifice. It |
| M:4.7 | If this is interpreted as giving up the desirable, it | will engender enormous conflict. Few teachers of God escape this |
| M:4.8 | him. Now he rests a while and gathers them before going on. He | will not go on from here alone. |
| M:4.12 | they are honest. They can only succeed because they never do their | will alone. They choose for all mankind, for all the world and all |
| M:4.14 | completely obliterates his function from his awareness. It | will make him confused, fearful, angry, and suspicious. It will make |
| M:4.14 | It will make him confused, fearful, angry, and suspicious. It | will make the Holy Spirit's lessons impossible to learn. Nor can |
| M:4.15 | they join their thoughts with Him Who is their Source. And so their | will, which always was His own, is free to be itself. |
| M:4.20 | at a time perhaps unknown as yet, but not in doubt. The time | will be as right as is the answer. And this is true for everything |
| M:5.3 | for his thoughts. And if he is responsible for his thoughts, he | will be killed to prove to him how weak and pitiful he is. But if he |
| M:5.5 | that this is so, and he recovers. If he decides against recovery, he | will not be healed. Who is the physician? Only the mind of the |
| M:5.7 | and effect in their true sequence in one respect, and the learning | will generalize and transform the world. The transfer value of one |
| M:5.10 | and truth is not brought to them. So are they dispelled, not by the | will of another but by the union of the One will with itself. And |
| M:5.10 | dispelled, not by the will of another but by the union of the One | will with itself. And this is the function of God's teachers—to see |
| M:5.10 | with itself. And this is the function of God's teachers—to see no | will as separate from their own, nor theirs as separate from God's. |
| M:6.2 | Healing | will always stand aside when it would be seen as threat. The instant |
| M:6.2 | instant it is welcome it is there. Where healing has been given, it | will be received. And what is time before the gifts of God? We have |
| M:6.2 | accepted. Let him be certain it has been received and trust that it | will be accepted when it is recognized as a blessing and not a curse. |
| M:6.3 | part that makes sharing possible, the part that guarantees the giver | will not lose but only gain. Who gives a gift and then remains with |
| M:8.3 | outward, and it sends the body's eyes to find it. The body's eyes | will never see except through differences. Yet it is not the messages |
| M:8.4 | this? Unrecognized by itself, it has itself asked to be given what | will fit into these categories. And having done so, it concludes that |
| M:8.5 | of the insane in a larger hallucination as opposed to a smaller one? | Will he agree more quickly to the unreality of a louder voice he |
| M:8.5 | unreality of a louder voice he hears than to that of a softer one? | Will he dismiss more easily a whispered demand to kill than a shout? |
| M:8.5 | they are real to him. When he realizes they are all illusions, they | will disappear. And so it is with healing. The properties of |
| M:8.6 | The body's eyes | will continue to see differences, but the mind which has let itself |
| M:8.6 | to see differences, but the mind which has let itself be healed | will no longer acknowledge them. There will be those who seem to be |
| M:8.6 | has let itself be healed will no longer acknowledge them. There | will be those who seem to be “sicker” than others, and the body's |
| M:8.6 | be those who seem to be “sicker” than others, and the body's eyes | will report their changed appearances as before. But the mind will |
| M:8.6 | eyes will report their changed appearances as before. But the mind | will put them all in one category—they are unreal. This is the gift |
| M:10.6 | his mistaken choice, have fallen from him. Teacher of God, this step | will bring you peace. Can it be difficult to want but this? |
| M:12.1 | is based upon God's Judgment, not His own. Thus does He share God's | Will and bring His Thoughts to still deluded minds. He is forever |
| M:12.4 | to let God's Voice speak through it to human ears. And these ears | will carry to the mind of the hearer messages which are not of this |
| M:12.4 | of the hearer messages which are not of this world, and the mind | will understand because of their Source. From this understanding will |
| M:12.4 | will understand because of their Source. From this understanding | will come the recognition in this new teacher of God of what the |
| M:12.5 | central lesson is always this—that what you use the body for, it | will become to you. Use it for sin or for attack, which is the same |
| M:12.5 | you. Use it for sin or for attack, which is the same as sin, and you | will see it as sinful. Because it is sinful, it is weak, and being |
| M:12.5 | body another purpose from the one that keeps it holy. God's Voice | will tell him when he has fulfilled his role, just as It tells him |
| M:13.1 | world. Like all things in the world, its meaning is temporary and | will ultimately fade into the nothingness from which it came when |
| M:13.6 | would sacrifice the truth, they stay in hell. And if they stay, you | will remain with them. |
| M:13.7 | A split that cannot happen. Yet a split in which you surely | will believe, because you have set up a situation that is impossible. |
| M:14.1 | Can what has no beginning really end? The world | will end in an illusion, as it began. Yet will its ending be an |
| M:14.1 | really end? The world will end in an illusion, as it began. Yet | will its ending be an illusion of mercy. The illusion of forgiveness, |
| M:14.1 | of forgiveness, complete, excluding no one, limitless in gentleness, | will cover it, hiding all evil, concealing all sin, and ending guilt |
| M:14.2 | answer, turning to Him in silence to receive His Word. The world | will end when all things in it have been rightly judged by His |
| M:14.2 | all things in it have been rightly judged by His judgment. The world | will end with the benediction of holiness upon it. When not one |
| M:14.2 | upon it. When not one thought of sin remains, the world is over. It | will not be destroyed nor attacked nor even touched. It will merely |
| M:14.2 | is over. It will not be destroyed nor attacked nor even touched. It | will merely cease to seem to be. |
| M:14.3 | and waits on the goals of God's teachers. Not one thought of sin | will remain the instant any one of them accepts the Atonement for |
| M:14.4 | The world | will end when its thought system has been completely reversed. Until |
| M:14.4 | completely reversed. Until then, bits and pieces of its thinking | will still seem sensible. The final lesson which brings the ending of |
| M:14.4 | as hard or easy. His Teacher points to it, and he trusts that He | will show him how to learn it. |
| M:14.5 | The world | will end in joy because it is a place of sorrow. When joy has come, |
| M:14.5 | When joy has come, the purpose of the world has gone. The world | will end in peace because it is a place of war. When peace has come, |
| M:14.5 | When peace has come, what is the purpose of the world? The world | will end in laughter because it is a place of tears. Where there is |
| M:14.5 | brings all this to bless the world. In blessing it departs, for it | will not end as it began. To turn hell into Heaven is the function of |
| M:14.5 | you cannot learn His own curriculum. His Word says otherwise. His | Will be done. It cannot be otherwise. And be you thankful it is so. |
| M:15.1 | Who could flee forever from the truth? But the Final Judgment | will not come until it is no longer associated with fear. One day |
| M:15.1 | come until it is no longer associated with fear. One day each one | will welcome it, and on that very day it will be given him. He will |
| M:15.1 | with fear. One day each one will welcome it, and on that very day it | will be given him. He will hear his sinlessness proclaimed around and |
| M:15.1 | one will welcome it, and on that very day it will be given him. He | will hear his sinlessness proclaimed around and around the world, |
| M:15.1 | is the judgment in which salvation lies. This is the judgment that | will set him free. This is the judgment in which all things are freed |
| M:15.3 | that it is true. One instant of complete belief in this, and you | will go beyond belief to certainty. One instant out of time can bring |
| M:15.4 | of your judgments on its gifts, that you would rather have? You | will be judged, and judged in fairness and in honesty. There is no |
| M:15.4 | that. His promises have guaranteed that His judgment, and His alone, | will be accepted in the end. It is your function to make that end be |
| M:16.1 | Seeing this and understanding it is true, he rests content. He | will be told all that his role should be, this day and every day. And |
| M:16.1 | be, this day and every day. And those who share that role with him | will find him, so they can learn the lessons for the day together. |
| M:16.4 | you begin to find it difficult. You may find that the difficulty | will diminish and drop away. If not, that is the time to stop. |
| M:16.5 | sure that you do not forget a brief period—not more than a moment | will do—in which you close your eyes and think of God. |
| M:16.6 | foolish to be so afraid of nothing! Nothing at all! Your defenses | will not work, but you are not in danger. You have no need of them. |
| M:16.6 | not in danger. You have no need of them. Recognize this, and they | will disappear. And only then will you accept your real protection. |

| M:16.7 | him. For he is safe and knows it to be so. He has a Guide Who | will not fail. He need make no distinctions among the problems he |
| M:16.7 | as he was before illusions were accepted into his mind and as he | will be when he has let them go. There is no difference in his state |
| M:16.8 | Yet there | will be temptations along the way the teacher of God has yet to |
| M:16.8 | He can but try, and his success depends on his conviction that he | will succeed. He must be sure success is not of him but will be given |
| M:16.8 | that he will succeed. He must be sure success is not of him but | will be given him at any time, in any place and circumstance he calls |
| M:16.8 | and circumstance he calls for it. There are times his certainty | will waver, and the instant this occurs he will return to earlier |
| M:16.8 | are times his certainty will waver, and the instant this occurs he | will return to earlier attempts to place reliance on himself alone. |
| M:16.9 | temptation is nothing more than the attempt to substitute another | will for God's. These attempts may indeed seem frightening, yet they |
| M:16.9 | of God has reached the most advanced state. All intermediate lessons | will but lead to this and bring this goal nearer to recognition. For |
| M:16.10 | There is no substitute for the | Will of God. In simple statement, it is to this fact that the teacher |
| M:16.11 | trust in magic, for it is only this that leads to pain. “There is no | will but God's.” His teachers know that this is so and have learned |
| M:17.2 | outcomes. Nor should it be forgotten that the outcome that results | will always come to teacher and to pupil. How many times has it been |
| M:17.2 | who need his aid? Here is his gift most clearly given him. For he | will give only what he has chosen for himself. And in this gift is |
| M:17.3 | then is easily responded to with just one answer, and this answer | will enter the teacher's mind unfailingly. From there it shines into |
| M:17.4 | Perhaps it | will be helpful to remember that no one can be angry at a fact. It is |
| M:17.5 | possible that the mind which thinks it believes it has a separate | will that can oppose the Will of God and succeed. That this can |
| M:17.5 | which thinks it believes it has a separate will that can oppose the | Will of God and succeed. That this can hardly be a fact is obvious. |
| M:17.7 | But what | will now be your reaction to all magic thoughts? They can but |
| M:18.2 | is He free to teach all minds the truth of what they are, so they | will gladly be returned to Him. And now is guilt forgiven, overlooked |
| M:20.3 | this, given forgiveness there must be peace. For what except attack | will lead to war? And what but peace is opposite to war? Here the |
| M:20.4 | of God retained once it is found? Returning anger, in whatever form, | will drop the heavy curtain once again, and the belief that peace |
| M:20.4 | the heavy curtain once again, and the belief that peace cannot exist | will certainly return. War is again accepted as the one reality. Now |
| M:20.4 | you may not recognize that you have picked it up again. But you | will learn, as you remember even faintly now what happiness was yours |
| M:20.5 | you have decided that death ends life. Forgive the world, and you | will understand that everything which God created cannot have an end, |
| M:20.6 | peace of God? No more than this—the simple understanding that His | Will is wholly without opposite. There is no thought that contradicts |
| M:20.6 | is wholly without opposite. There is no thought that contradicts His | Will yet can be true. The contrast between His Will and yours but |
| M:20.6 | that contradicts His Will yet can be true. The contrast between His | Will and yours but seemed to be reality. In truth there is no |
| M:20.6 | but seemed to be reality. In truth there is no conflict, because His | Will is yours. Now is the mighty Will of God Himself His gift to you. |
| M:20.6 | there is no conflict, because His Will is yours. Now is the mighty | Will of God Himself His gift to you. He does not seek to keep it for |
| M:20.6 | you seek to keep your tiny, frail imaginings apart from Him? The | Will of God is one and all there is. This is your heritage. The |
| M:20.6 | you can conceive belong to you. God's peace is the condition for His | Will. Attain His peace, and you remember Him. |
| M:21.3 | The prayer for things of this world | will bring experiences of this world. If the prayer of the heart asks |
| M:21.3 | of this world. If the prayer of the heart asks for this, this | will be given because this will be received. It is impossible that |
| M:21.3 | prayer of the heart asks for this, this will be given because this | will be received. It is impossible that the prayer of the heart |
| M:21.4 | his words be chosen for him by ceasing to decide for himself what he | will say. This process is merely a special case of the workbook |
| M:21.4 | say. This process is merely a special case of the workbook lesson “I | will step back and let Him lead the way.” The teacher of God accepts |
| M:22.2 | seems long, let him be content. He has decided on the direction he | will take. What more was asked of him? And having done what was |
| M:22.5 | himself and can hardly offer it to his brother in Christ's Name. He | will, in fact, be unable to recognize his brother at all, for his |
| M:22.7 | Son is to limit his Father. Both are equally meaningless. Yet this | will not be understood until God's teacher recognizes that they are |
| M:23.1 | be received directly. Even the most advanced of God's teachers | will give way to temptation in this world. Would it be fair if their |
| M:23.3 | his promises, and ask yourself honestly whether it is likely that he | will fail to keep them. Can God fail His Son? And can one who is one |
| M:23.6 | all limits by and went beyond the farthest reach of learning. He | will take you with him, for he did not go alone. And you were with |
| M:24.3 | not acceptable to anyone, regardless of his formal beliefs. His ego | will be enough for him to cope with, and it is not part of wisdom to |
| M:24.4 | purpose. If there are aspects to any concept or belief that | will be helpful, he will be told about it. He will also be told how |
| M:24.4 | there are aspects to any concept or belief that will be helpful, he | will be told about it. He will also be told how to use it. What more |
| M:24.4 | concept or belief that will be helpful, he will be told about it. He | will also be told how to use it. What more need he know? |
| M:24.6 | does not lead to this is of concern to God's teachers. All beliefs | will point to this if properly interpreted. In this sense it can be |
| M:25.1 | his efforts be directed toward this one great final surprise, and he | will not be content to be delayed by the little ones that may come to |
| M:25.3 | used. Taking them as ends in themselves, no matter how this is done, | will delay progress. Nor does their value lie in proving anything— |
| M:25.4 | to weakness, for what is withheld from love is given to fear and | will be fearful in consequence. |

| M:26.2 | and all mistakes are recognized and overlooked by them. The time | will come when this is understood. And meanwhile they give all their |
| M:26.4 | problem, ask for the answer, and then accept it when it comes. Nor | will its coming be long delayed. All the help you can accept will be |

| M:27.6 | Of course! Without the idea of death, there is no world. All dreams | will end with this one. This is salvation's final goal, the end of |
| M:28.3 | to the truth. And now the truth can come at last. How quickly | will it come as it is asked to enter and envelop such a world! |
| M:28.5 | and we accept His holiness as ours, as it is. As God created us, so | will we be forever and forever, and we wish for nothing but His Will |
| M:28.5 | so will we be forever and forever, and we wish for nothing but His | Will to be our own. Illusions of another will are lost, for unity of |

| M:29.5 | for help when and where you can, you can be confident that wisdom | will be given you when you need it. Prepare for this each morning, |
| M:29.5 | do so, and thank Him for His guidance at night. And your confidence | will be well founded indeed. |
| M:29.6 | them. Does this mean that while attack remains attractive to you, He | will respond with evil? Hardly! For God has given Him the power to |

| Tx:7.100 | of what you are. The ability to see a logical outcome depends on the | willingness to see it, but its truth has nothing to do with your |
| Tx:7.100 | the willingness to see it, but its truth has nothing to do with your | willingness at all. Truth is God's Will. Share His Will, and you |
| Tx:8.17 | God's Will cannot be forced upon you, being an experience of total | willingness. The Holy Spirit knows how to teach this, but you do not. |
| Tx:8.78 | ego's skill in building up false cases. Nor can anyone doubt your | willingness to listen until you will not to tolerate anything except |
| Tx:8.78 | aside, it will be gone. The Holy Spirit's Voice is as loud as your | willingness to listen. It cannot be louder without violating your |
| Tx:8.117 | is possible not to know you have. The recognition of having is the | willingness for giving, and only by this willingness can you |
| Tx:8.117 | of having is the willingness for giving, and only by this | willingness can you recognize what you have. What you give is |
| Tx:9.15 | Miracles are merely the sign of your | willingness to follow the Holy Spirit's plan of salvation in |
| Tx:9.53 | The ego depends solely on your | willingness to tolerate it. If you are willing to look upon your |
| Tx:9.82 | not eternal and will be unmade for you the instant you signify your | willingness to accept only the eternal. If God has but one Son, there |
| Tx:9.86 | is always there to be accepted, but its acceptance depends on your | willingness to have it. To know reality must involve the willingness |
| Tx:9.86 | on your willingness to have it. To know reality must involve the | willingness to judge unreality for what it is. This is the right use |
| Tx:10.11 | much He has given you. Your ability to accept Him depends on your | willingness to give as He gives. Your fatherhood and your Father are |
| Tx:10.17 | healed by it? But be sure to count yourself among them, for in your | willingness to join them is your healing accomplished. Every miracle |
| Tx:10.19 | Healing is a sign that he wants to make whole. And this | willingness opens his own ears to the Voice of the Holy Spirit, whose |
| Tx:10.19 | go far beyond the healing you would undertake, for beside your small | willingness to make whole, He will lay His own complete will and make |
| Tx:10.21 | but recognize the little spark and are willing to let it grow. Your | willingness need not be perfect, because His is. If you will merely |
| Tx:10.45 | dependence on God, Whose function He shares with you. By His | Willingness to share it, He became as dependent on you as you are on |
| Tx:10.70 | The real world can actually be perceived. All that is necessary is a | willingness to perceive nothing else. For if you perceive both good |
| Tx:10.76 | Perceptions are learned, and you are not without a Teacher. Yet your | willingness to learn of Him depends on your willingness to question |
| Tx:10.76 | a Teacher. Yet your willingness to learn of Him depends on your | willingness to question everything you have learned of yourself, for |
| Tx:11.3 | anger to a plea for help? No response can be appropriate except the | willingness to give it to him, for this and only this is what he is |
| Tx:11.23 | is not of God is gone. Yet you must reveal it to yourself in perfect | willingness, for otherwise His knowledge remains useless to you. |
| Tx:12.56 | truth in them. The attraction of light must draw you willingly, and | willingness is signified by giving. Those who accept love of you |
| Tx:12.62 | give this world away in glad exchange for what you did not make is | willingness to learn the one you made is false. |
| Tx:14.7 | purity. Your only calling here is to devote yourself with active | willingness to the denial of guilt in all its forms. To accuse is not |
| Tx:15.13 | instants of release you offer and will receive. They attest to your | willingness to be released and to offer time to the Holy Spirit for |
| Tx:15.36 | Your practice must therefore rest upon your | willingness to let all littleness go. The instant in which magnitude |
| Tx:15.39 | release from littleness in the mind of the host of God depends on | willingness and not on time. The reason why this course is simple is |
| Tx:15.42 | to oppose it. For the holy instant is given and received with equal | willingness, being the acceptance of the single will that governs all |
| Tx:15.49 | and be sure that it will not result in pain if you offer Him your | willingness to have it serve no need but His. All the guilt in it |
| Tx:15.78 | Here there is no concealment and no private thoughts. The | willingness to communicate attracts communication to it and overcomes |
| Tx:15.79 | for your release. He must side with every sign or token of your | willingness to learn of Him what the truth must be. He is swift to |
| Tx:15.80 | that it be all that there is. God's Son has such great need of your | willingness to strive for this that you cannot conceive of need so |
| Tx:15.85 | entails, so you will become willing to make it permanent. Given this | willingness, it will not leave you, for it is permanent. For once you |
| Tx:16.13 | of the reality of what has clearly been accomplished through your | willingness, as long as you believe that you must understand it or |
| Tx:16.27 | commensurate with teaching. You have chosen this by your own | willingness to teach. Though you seemed to suffer for it, the joy of |
| Tx:16.40 | to forget and your ability to remember. In Him are joined your | willingness to love and all the love of God, Who forgot you not. |
| Tx:16.41 | to remember it. The Holy Spirit is the bridge to Him, made from your | willingness to unite with Him and created by His joy in union with |
| Tx:16.67 | on to meet them gladly, and learn how much awaits you for the simple | willingness to give up nothing because it is nothing. |
| Tx:16.69 | a holy instant and there let Him release you. He needs only your | willingness to share His perspective to give it to you completely. |
| Tx:16.69 | to share His perspective to give it to you completely. And your | willingness need not be complete because His is perfect. It is His |
| Tx:16.69 | your recognition of your unwillingness for your release, His perfect | willingness is given you. Call upon Him, for Heaven is at His call. |
| Tx:17.6 | or will be not at all.] Be not concerned with anything except your | willingness to have this be accomplished. He will accomplish it; not |
| Tx:17.37 | the frame at all because the gift can only be accepted through your | willingness to focus all your attention on the picture. The holy |
| Tx:18.15 | examples both of the ego's inability to tolerate reality and your | willingness to change reality on its behalf. |
| Tx:18.25 | you accepted is the goal of knowledge, for which you signified your | willingness. Fear seems to live in darkness, and when you are afraid, |
| Tx:18.29 | You have been willing to bring the darkness to light, and this | willingness has given strength to everyone who would remain in |
| Tx:18.32 | your determination to be holy. It is the answer. The desire and the | willingness to let it come precedes its coming. You prepare your |
| Tx:18.33 | your good intentions. They are not enough. But trust implicitly your | willingness, whatever else may enter. Concentrate only on this and be |
| Tx:18.33 | coming brings with it. The miracle of the holy instant lies in your | willingness to let it be what it is. And in your willingness for this |
| Tx:18.33 | lies in your willingness to let it be what it is. And in your | willingness for this lies also your acceptance of yourself as you |
| Tx:18.34 | must be interfering with His Will. You do not need the strength of | willingness to come from you, but only from His Will. |
| Tx:18.35 | The holy instant does not come from your little | willingness alone. It is always the result of your small willingness |
| Tx:18.35 | your little willingness alone. It is always the result of your small | willingness combined with the unlimited power of God's Will. You have |
| Tx:18.35 | for peace. God has established them. They do not wait upon your | willingness for what they are. Your willingness is needed only to |
| Tx:18.35 | them. They do not wait upon your willingness for what they are. Your | willingness is needed only to make it possible to teach you what they |
| Tx:18.36 | first atone, but only to those who offer it nothing more than simple | willingness to make way for it. Purification is of God alone and |
| Tx:18.42 | help. That is His function. Your part is only to offer Him a little | willingness to let Him remove all fear and hatred and to be forgiven. |
| Tx:18.46 | by anything, stop instantly and offer the Holy Spirit your | willingness in spite of fear to let Him exchange this instant for the |
| Tx:21.13 | little is asked of you to learn this course. It is the same small | willingness you need to have your whole relationship transformed to |
| Tx:22.28 | to see his brother sinless. And no one can remain beyond this | willingness if you would be released entirely from all effects of |
| Tx:22.58 | will use every one of them for peace. Nor will one little smile or | willingness to overlook the tiniest mistake be lost to anyone. |
| Tx:24.2 | To learn this course requires | willingness to question every value that you hold. Not one can be |
| Tx:24.60 | self you understand, nor do you deem this cost too heavy. But a tiny | willingness, a nod to God, a greeting to the Christ in you, you find |
| Tx:25.36 | How better could your own mistakes be brought to truth than by your | willingness to bring the light of Heaven with you as you walk beyond |
| Tx:25.63 | use what you withhold, for He cannot take it from you without your | willingness. For if He did, you would believe He wrested it from you |
| Tx:25.79 | are kept for him and offered anyone who but holds out his hand in | willingness they be received. Nor is the treasure less as it is given |
| Tx:26.56 | complete, asks but a little wish that what is true be true; a little | willingness to overlook what is not there; a little sigh that speaks |
| Tx:26.56 | with Heaven, wholly perfect and complete. What is forgiveness but a | willingness that truth be true? What can remain unhealed and broken |
| Tx:28.46 | when you do not insist on seeing in the gap what is not there. Your | willingness to let illusions go is all the Healer of God's Son |
| Tx:30.1 | by which it can be reached depends on this one thing alone—your | willingness to practice every step. Each one will help a little every |
| Tx:30.77 | Look on your brother with the | willingness to see him as he is. And do not keep a part of him |
| Tx:30.77 | to see him as he is. And do not keep a part of him outside your | willingness that he be healed. To heal is to make whole. And what is |
| W1:71.12 | plan for your salvation. He will answer you in proportion to your | willingness to hear His Voice. Refuse not to hear. The very fact that |
| W1:71.12 | very fact that you are doing the exercises proves that you have some | willingness to listen. This is enough to establish your claim to |
| W1:89.5 | idea do I accept my release from hell. By this idea do I express my | willingness to have all my illusions be replaced with truth according |
| W1:122.4 | given to imperfect questions, meaningless requests, half-hearted | willingness to hear, and less than halfway diligence and partial |
| W1:129.7 | Practice your | willingness to make this change ten minutes in the morning and at |
| W1:133.14 | this state today, with self-deception laid aside and with an honest | willingness to value but the truly valuable and the real. |
| W1:134.18 | are prepared for freedom. If you have been practicing thus far in | willingness and honesty, you will begin to sense a lifting up, a |
| W1:136.5 | your own control. But what you have forgot can be remembered, given | willingness to reconsider the decision which is doubly shielded by |
| W1:I2.1 | Our next few lessons make a special point of firming up your | willingness to make your weak commitment strong, your scattered goals |
| W1:I2.1 | experiencing this which makes it sure that you will give your total | willingness to following the way the course sets forth. |
| W1:196.4 | its burdens one by one. It is not time we need for this. It is but | willingness. And what would seem to need a thousand years can easily |
| W2:WISC.1 | It is the invitation to God's Word to take illusion's place, the | willingness to let forgiveness rest upon all things without exception |
| W2:WISC.5 | hands and feet. It needs your voice. And most of all it needs your | willingness. Let us rejoice that we can do God's Will and join |

| M:4.9 | learned willingness, but now he sees that he does not know what the | willingness is for. And now he must attain a state that may remain |

| Tx:2.81 | can produce fear. It does so whenever it is conflicted in what it | wills, thus producing inevitable strain because willing and doing |
| Tx:3.44 | perception. The mind returns to its proper function only when it | wills to know. This places it in the Soul's service, where perception |
| Tx:3.44 | is meaningless. The superconscious is the level of the mind which | wills this. |
| Tx:3.50 | sooner. This is the real meaning of the celestial speed-up. Strong | wills can do this now, and you will find rest for your Souls. God |
| Tx:4.41 | Christmas is not a time; it is a state of mind. The Christ Mind | wills from the Soul, not from the ego, and the Christ Mind is yours. |
| Tx:5.92 | His Spirit to you and asks that you commend yours to Him. He | wills to keep it in perfect peace, because you are of one mind and |
| Tx:7.91 | Only you can limit your creative power, but God | wills to release it. He no more wills you to deprive yourself of your |
| Tx:7.91 | limit your creative power, but God wills to release it. He no more | wills you to deprive yourself of your creations than He wills to |
| Tx:7.91 | He no more wills you to deprive yourself of your creations than He | wills to deprive Himself of His. Do not withhold your gifts to the |
| Tx:7.102 | you and one which is both very fearful and very desirable. Yet God | wills. He does not wish. Your will is as powerful as His because it |

| Tx:8.23 | Spirit teaches that all strength is in God and therefore in you. God | wills no one suffer. He does not will anyone to suffer for a wrong |
| Tx:8.30 | makes healing impossible. If healing is our joint will, unless our | wills are joined you cannot be healed. This is obvious when you |
| Tx:8.36 | you mine on yours. Alone we can do nothing, but together our | wills fuse into something whose power is far beyond the power of its |
| Tx:8.39 | it of Him for us all. Nothing can prevail against our united | wills, because nothing can prevail against God's. Would you know the |
| Tx:8.47 | to create. Your will was not created separate from His, and so it | wills as He wills. |
| Tx:8.47 | Your will was not created separate from His, and so it wills as He | wills. |
| Tx:8.95 | Divided | wills do not communicate because they speak for different things to |
| Tx:9.38 | salvation. Would He not have given you the means to find it? If He | wills you to have it, He must have made it possible and very easy to |
| Tx:9.38 | they will not return, but because delay of joy is needless. God | wills you perfect happiness now. Is it possible that this is not also |
| Tx:10.5 | you will be restoring the holy dwelling place of His Son, where He | wills His Son to be and where he is. In whatever part of the Mind of |
| Tx:10.10 | because only this can bring you the joy which is His and which He | wills to share with you. Your love is as boundless as His because it |

| Tx:10.24 | because it is not true of Him. Oh, my children, if you knew what God | wills for you, your joy would be complete! And what He wills has |

| Tx:10.25 | are not ready. Yet I can tell you and remind you often that what God | wills for Himself He wills for you, and what He wills for you is |
| Tx:10.25 | can tell you and remind you often that what God wills for Himself He | wills for you, and what He wills for you is yours. |
| Tx:10.25 | often that what God wills for Himself He wills for you, and what He | wills for you is yours. |
| Tx:10.27 | hide himself. Yet the Son of God cannot hide his glory, for God | wills him to be glorious and gave him the light that shines in him. |
| Tx:10.38 | the Son of God, whose radiance is of his Father and whose glory he | wills to share as his Father shares it with him. There is no |
| Tx:10.45 | as you are on Him. Do not ascribe the ego's arrogance to Him, Who | wills not to be independent of you. He has included you in His |
| Tx:10.49 | Very simply, then, you have become afraid of yourself. And no one | wills to learn what he believes would destroy him. |
| Tx:10.81 | share it with God. This is its reality. Would the Holy Spirit, Who | wills only to restore, be capable of misinterpreting the question you |
| Tx:10.87 | Accept His healing power and use it for all He sends you, for He | wills to heal the Son of God in whom He is not deceived. |
| Tx:11.16 | what he really wants is to offer it unto yourself, for your Father | wills you to know your brother as yourself. Answer his call for love |
| Tx:11.19 | You still want what God | wills, and no nightmare can defeat a Child of God in his purpose. For |
| Tx:11.54 | Because He loves you, He will gladly teach you what He loves, for He | wills to share it. Remembering you always, He cannot let you forget |
| Tx:11.71 | which created us. For we are there in the peace of the Father, Who | wills to project His peace through you. |
| Tx:11.81 | to keep it so. For the memory of God can dawn only in a mind that | wills to remember and that has relinquished the insane desire to |
| Tx:11.89 | unnecessary by teaching their pupils all they know. The Holy Spirit | wills only this, for sharing the Father's love for His Son, He wills |
| Tx:11.89 | wills only this, for sharing the Father's love for His Son, He | wills to remove all guilt from his mind that he may remember his |
| Tx:12.70 | lingering in time. He knows that you are not at home there, and He | wills no delay to wait upon your joyous homecoming. |
| Tx:13.41 | Have faith in only this one thing, and it will be sufficient: God | wills you be in Heaven, and nothing can keep you from it or it from |
| Tx:13.41 | all mean nothing. They will not prevail against the peace God | wills for you. The Holy Spirit will restore your sanity, because |
| Tx:13.43 | chance that Heaven will not be yours, for God is sure, and what He | wills is as sure as He is. You will learn salvation, because you will |
| Tx:13.43 | It will not be possible to exempt yourself from what the Holy Spirit | wills to teach you. Salvation is as sure as God. His certainty |
| Tx:13.74 | as naturally as peace that knows no limits. There is nothing their | wills will not provide that offers them anything of value. Yet |
| Tx:13.75 | His answer, for He knows that you are worthy of everything God | wills for you. Do not try to escape the gift of God which He so |
| Tx:13.78 | leads you gladly on it. With Him you will not fail to learn what God | wills for you is your will. Without His guidance, you will think you |
| Tx:14.34 | and in you. All interference in the communication that God Himself | wills with His Son is quite impossible here. Unbroken and |
| Tx:14.57 | it is not recognized, you will recognize it. And God Himself, Who | wills to be with His Son forever, will bless each recognition of His |
| Tx:14.63 | one thing: you think you do not will for God's Son what His Father | wills for him. Every dark lesson teaches this in one form or another. |
| Tx:15.27 | offer you. But for this, you cannot side against Him in what He | wills for you. |
| Tx:15.32 | with me, who have decided to abide with you. I will as my Father | wills, knowing His Will is constant and at peace forever with Itself. |
| Tx:15.35 | beyond immediate learning unless you prefer to believe that what God | wills takes time. And this means only that you would rather delay the |
| Tx:15.61 | all. When the Son of God accepts the laws of God as what he gladly | wills, it is impossible that he be bound or limited in any way. In |
| Tx:15.81 | are. For the holy host of God is beyond failure, and nothing that he | wills can be denied. You are forever in a relationship so holy that |
| Tx:16.17 | your interpretation, considering honestly what they have been? God | wills you better. Could you not look with greater charity on whom God |
| Tx:17.21 | The Holy Spirit | wills only to make His resolutions complete and perfect, and so He |
| Tx:18.34 | unworthy of Him. And if you believe He cannot enter where He | wills to be, you must be interfering with His Will. You do not need |
| Tx:18.40 | you impossible. What you believe to be impossible will be if God so | wills it, but you will remain quite unaware of it. If you believe the |
| Tx:18.40 | orders of difficulty in miracles is centered on this. Everything God | wills is not only possible but has already happened. And that is why |
| Tx:18.43 | yourselves for such a function? Yet it is possible because God | wills it. Nor will He change His Mind about it. The means and purpose |
| Tx:19.31 | —partly sane and partially insane. For He must have created what | wills to destroy Him and has the power to do so. Is it not easier to |
| Tx:19.80 | Heaven? One thing is sure—God, Who created neither sin nor death, | wills not that you be bound by them. He knows of neither sin nor its |
| Tx:21.26 | For if you think the world you made has power to make you what it | wills, you are confusing Son and Father, effect and Source. |
| Tx:21.34 | take them from you, for He sees their value as a means for what He | wills for you. You made perception that you might choose among your |
| Tx:21.53 | consent. It must have been accepted by the Son of God, for what God | wills for him he must receive. For God wills not apart from him, nor |
| Tx:21.53 | the Son of God, for what God wills for him he must receive. For God | wills not apart from him, nor does the Will of God wait upon time to |
| Tx:22.20 | to the Holy Spirit as His purpose, and by One to Whom nothing He | wills can be impossible, the means for its attainment are more than |
| Tx:22.21 | do what holds no hope of ever being done. You know what your Creator | wills is possible, but what you made believes it is not so. Now must |
| Tx:22.27 | that anything be separate. Its will has no exceptions, and what it | wills is true. Every illusion brought to its forgiveness is gently |
| Tx:22.54 | Atonement. And in your healing is the Sonship healed because your | wills are joined. |
| Tx:22.57 | undismayed? God would let nothing interfere with those whose | wills are His[. And they will recognize their wills are His, because |
| Tx:22.57 | with those whose wills are His[. And they will recognize their | wills are His, because they serve His Will] and serve it willingly. |
| Tx:24.1 | enter, there He is already. And can it be He cannot enter where He | wills to be? Peace will be yours because it is His Will. Can you |
| Tx:24.30 | would have no separation, like an alien will, rise between what He | wills for you and what you will. They are the same, for neither one |
| Tx:24.30 | wills for you and what you will. They are the same, for neither one | wills specialness. How could they will the death of love itself? Yet |
| Tx:24.50 | a Father. There could be no universe and no reality. For what God | wills is whole and part of Him because His Will is One. Nothing alive |
| Tx:24.61 | To Him this judgment makes no sense at all, for only what His Father | wills is possible, and there is no alternative for Him to see. Out of |
| Tx:25.43 | he would only heal and only bless. And being in accord with what God | wills, he has the power to heal and bless all those he looks on with |
| Tx:26.57 | What is the Will of God? He | wills His Son have everything. And this He guaranteed when He created |
| Tx:26.60 | Cause and effect are one, not separate. God | wills you learn what always has been true—that He created you as |
| Tx:26.63 | In every wish to hurt, he chooses death instead of what his Father | wills for him. Yet every instant offers life to him because his |
| Tx:26.63 | for him. Yet every instant offers life to him because his Father | wills that he should live. |
| Tx:26.65 | that He gave and choose a little senseless wish instead of what He | wills. The gift of God to you is limitless. There is no circumstance |
| Tx:27.36 | there must be a way in which your problems are resolved, for what He | wills already has been done. |
| Tx:28.15 | he can glimpse another shore which he can never reach. His Father | wills that he be lifted up and gently carried over. He has built the |
| Tx:28.15 | His Son across it. Have no fear that He will fail in what He | wills. Nor that you be excluded from the Will that is for you. |
| Tx:28.33 | The miracle will brush them all aside and thus make room for Him Who | wills to come and bridge His Son's returning to Himself. |
| Tx:28.43 | remain without a witness or a cause. And both are gone if someone | wills to be united with him. He has dream[ed] that he was separated |
| Tx:28.60 | to Himself, and there is no one who could be untrue to what He | wills as part of what He is. The promise that there is no gap between |
| Tx:30.36 | done to him whom God so loves is done to God Himself. Think not He | wills to bind you, Who has made you co-creator of the universe along |
| Tx:31.67 | not matter if you think you are in earth or Heaven. What your Father | wills for you can never change. The truth in you remains as radiant |
| Tx:31.88 | all the power of the Will of God. And what they will is only what He | wills. |
| W1:74.6 | can disturb me. My will is God's My will and God's are one. God | wills peace for His Son. |
| W1:89.5 | and no substitutes. I want all of Heaven and only Heaven, as God | wills me to have. |
| W1:99.10 | Him. Let in the light, and you will look upon no obstacle to what He | wills for you. Open your secrets to His kindly Light, and see how |
| W1:100.2 | out His plan is given you that you might be restored to what He | wills. This part is as essential to His plan as to your happiness. |
| W1:100.4 | and their joy heals sorrow and despair. They are the proof that God | wills perfect happiness for all who will accept their Father's gifts |
| W1:100.5 | God. Thus do you fail to show the world how great the happiness He | wills for you. And so you do not recognize that it is yours. |
| W1:100.6 | that you be happy so the world can see how much He loves His Son and | wills no sorrow rises to abate his joy; no fear besets him to disturb |
| W1:104.1 | are. They come to you from God, Who cannot fail to give you what He | wills. Yet must there be a place made ready to receive His gifts. |
| W1:104.3 | them in place of what we made we but unite our will with what God | wills and recognize the same as being one. |
| W1:105.11 | hourly to say the words which call on Him to give you what He | wills to give and wills you to receive. |
| W1:105.11 | the words which call on Him to give you what He wills to give and | wills you to receive. |
| W1:105.12 | Determine not to interfere today with what He | wills. And if a brother seems to tempt you to deny God's gift to him, |
| W1:107.8 | give you yours. You were not meant to suffer and to die. Your Father | wills these dreams be gone. Let truth correct them all. We do not ask |
| W1:122.7 | to a mind which has received what God has given as its own. God | wills salvation be received today and that the intricacies of your |
| W1:125.1 | this day be a day of stillness and of quiet listening. Your Father | wills you hear His Word today. He calls to you from deep within your |

| Tx:4.14 | learning limits for you. Once again—nothing you do or think or | wish or make is necessary to establish your worth. This point is not |
| Tx:4.20 | I will substitute for your ego if you | wish but never for your Soul. A father can safely leave a child with |
| Tx:7.93 | Creator did. Created by sharing, its will is to create. It does not | wish to contain God but to extend His Being. The extension of God's |
| Tx:7.102 | is both very fearful and very desirable. Yet God wills. He does not | wish. Your will is as powerful as His because it is His. The ego's |
| Tx:7.102 | mean anything, because the ego wishes for the impossible. You can | wish for the impossible, but you can will only with God. This is the |
| Tx:7.105 | We said before that you are the Will of God. His Will is not an idle | wish, and your identification with His Will is not optional, since it |
| Tx:7.105 | which the ego guards so jealously, is not accomplished by your | wish. It was accomplished for you by the Will of God, Who has not |
| Tx:8.17 | this is accomplished, then, there is no other experience. Yet the | wish for other experience will block its accomplishment, because |
| Tx:9.67 | to your Creator and your creations. Knowing them, you will have no | wish to sleep but only the will to waken and be glad. Dreams will be |
| Tx:10.2 | source of perceived conflict, because the ego was made out of the | wish of God's Son to father Him. The ego, then, is nothing more than |
| Tx:12.5 | You have not admitted to this “terrible” secret because you still | wish to crucify him if you could find him. Yet the wish has hidden |
| Tx:12.5 | because you still wish to crucify him if you could find him. Yet the | wish has hidden him from you because it is very fearful, and you are |
| Tx:12.5 | very fearful, and you are afraid to find him. You have handled this | wish to kill yourself by not knowing who you are and identifying with |
| Tx:12.12 | fear of love. You would be willing to look even upon your savage | wish to kill God's Son if you did not believe that it saves you from |
| Tx:12.12 | Son if you did not believe that it saves you from love. For this | wish caused the separation. You have protected it because you do not |
| Tx:12.21 | departing in peace and returning to the Father? If the Son did not | wish to remain in peace, he could not remain at all. For a darkened |
| Tx:12.36 | do not recognize that they have condemned themselves. They do not | wish to die, yet they will not let condemnation go. And so they |
| Tx:13.65 | your guiltlessness can you be happy. There is no conflict here. To | wish for guilt in any way, in any form, will lose appreciation of the |
| Tx:14.31 | to your mind with clarity and brightness so intense you could not | wish for all the world not to accept what God would have you have. |
| Tx:15.23 | that can ever content you. You are free to try as many as you | wish, but all you will be doing is to delay your homecoming. For you |
| Tx:16.46 | It is in the special relationship, born of the hidden | wish for special love from God, that the ego's hatred triumphs. For |
| Tx:17.2 | It is, then, only your | wish to change reality that is fearful, because by your wish you |
| Tx:17.2 | only your wish to change reality that is fearful, because by your | wish you think you have accomplished what you wish. This strange |
| Tx:17.2 | because by your wish you think you have accomplished what you | wish. This strange position in a sense acknowledges your power. Yet |
| Tx:17.3 | your lack of faith in the power that heals all pain arises from your | wish to retain some aspects of reality for fantasy. If you but |
| Tx:18.14 | your ego, which was outraged by the “attack.” This would not be your | wish unless you saw yourself as one with the ego, which always looks |
| Tx:18.19 | Your | wish to make another world that is not real remains with you. And |
| Tx:18.22 | It is not strange that dreams can make a world that is unreal. The | wish to make it is incredible. Your relationship has become one in |
| Tx:18.22 | make it is incredible. Your relationship has become one in which the | wish has been removed because its purpose has been changed from one |
| Tx:18.27 | is not necessary. All that was necessary was merely the | wish to understand. That wish was the desire to be holy. The Will of |
| Tx:18.27 | All that was necessary was merely the wish to understand. That | wish was the desire to be holy. The Will of God is granted you. For |
| Tx:18.53 | can clearly be sick, but project not this upon the body. For your | wish to make destructive what cannot destroy can have no real effect |
| Tx:19.23 | the death of God, Whom sin has killed! And this would be the ego's | wish, which in its madness it thinks it has accomplished. |
| Tx:19.46 | The little insane | wish to get rid of Him Who you invited in and push Him out must |
| Tx:19.46 | out must produce conflict. As you look upon the world, this little | wish, uprooted and floating aimlessly, can land and settle briefly |
| Tx:19.47 | This feather of a | wish, this tiny illusion, this microscopic remnant of the belief in |
| Tx:19.85 | unable to protect the life that He created against the ego's savage | wish to kill. My brothers, children of our Father, this is a dream of |
| Tx:20.62 | remain unquestioned while the end is cherished. Vision adapts to | wish, for sight is always secondary to desire. And if you see the |
| Tx:20.66 | “How can I see my brother without the body?” Ask only, “Do I really | wish to see him sinless?” And as you ask, forget not that his |
| Tx:21.46 | the gifts it would withdraw from you in rage at your “presumptuous” | wish to look within, you do not want. A few remaining trinkets still |
| Tx:21.82 | seeing the denial of the real world. Yet the last question adds the | wish for constancy in your desire to see the real world, so the |
| Tx:21.84 | Happiness must be constant because it is attained by giving up the | wish for the inconstant. Joy cannot be perceived except through |
| Tx:21.84 | constant vision. And constant vision can be given only those who | wish for constancy. The power of the Son of God's desire remains the |
| Tx:23.11 | not forgotten what you are. Only a strange illusion of yourself, a | wish to triumph over what you are, remembers not. |
| Tx:23.47 | the same cannot conflict. You are not asked to fight against your | wish to murder. But you are asked to realize the form it takes |
| Tx:24.10 | it or suffer vengeance. Every twinge of malice or stab of hate or | wish to separate arises here. For here the purpose which you share |
| Tx:24.36 | To minds intent on specialness, it is impossible. Yet to those who | wish to heal and not attack, it is quite obvious. The purpose of |
| Tx:24.38 | to reach it. But do consider, and consider well, whether it is your | wish that you might see your brother sinless. To specialness the |
| Tx:24.40 | what you seek for is a source of joy as you conceive it. What you | wish is true for you. Nor is it possible that you can wish for |
| Tx:24.40 | it. What you wish is true for you. Nor is it possible that you can | wish for something and lack faith that it is so. Wishing makes real, |
| Tx:24.40 | Wishing makes real, as surely as does will create. The power of a | wish upholds illusions as strongly as does love extend itself, except |
| Tx:24.52 | the only one it has. Until you see the healing of the Son as all you | wish to be accomplished by the world, by time, and all appearances, |
| Tx:24.62 | to this world defend the specialness he wants to be the truth! His | wish is law unto him, and he obeys. Nothing his specialness demands |
| Tx:24.68 | in his memory, one thought with purpose still uncertain, or one | wish with a divided aim. |
| Tx:24.69 | it but witnesses to what you taught. It is the outward picture of a | wish—an image that you wanted to be true. |
| Tx:24.70 | an image that you want to be yourself. It is the means to make your | wish come true. It gives the eyes with which you look on it, the |
| Tx:24.72 | will and wishes it were so. And thus does his perception serve his | wish by giving it appearances of truth. Yet can perception serve |
| Tx:25.24 | there with him so he could not be lost forever in the madness of his | wish. |
| Tx:25.31 | The Son of God could never sin, but he can | wish for what would hurt him. And he has the power to think he can be |
| Tx:25.33 | for you to see. Nothing is harmful or beneficent apart from what you | wish. It is your wish that makes it what it is in its effects on you. |
| Tx:25.33 | is harmful or beneficent apart from what you wish. It is your | wish that makes it what it is in its effects on you. Because you |
| Tx:25.34 | hopes, their dreams of guilt and merciless revenge, and every | wish to hurt and kill and die will disappear before the sun you bring. |
| Tx:25.38 | wishes to attack, can fail to think it must be guilty to deserve the | wish and leave him innocent? And who would see the Son of God as |
| Tx:25.38 | leave him innocent? And who would see the Son of God as innocent and | wish him dead? Christ stands before you both each time you look on |
| Tx:25.44 | say that he prefers the darkness and maintain he wants to see? The | wish to see calls down the grace of God upon your eyes and brings the |
| Tx:25.48 | time, for so he chose, and choosing it, he made it for himself. His | wish was not denied but changed in form to let it serve his brother |
| Tx:25.50 | of sin is death. And so it is. For sin is a request for death, a | wish to make this world's foundation sure as love, dependable as |
| Tx:25.51 | It cannot be the “sinner's” | wish for death is just as strong as is God's Will for life. Nor can |
| Tx:25.51 | His Will? And what can share Its attributes except Itself? What | wish can rise against His Will and be immutable? If you could realize |
| Tx:26.1 | a brother in another body separate from yours is the expression of a | wish to see a little part of him and sacrifice the rest. Look at the |
| Tx:26.15 | For there are those you want to suffer loss and no one whom you | wish to be preserved from sacrifice entirely. Consider once again |
| Tx:26.17 | perfectly intact and undefiled. And all you need to do is but to | wish that Heaven be given you instead of hell, and every bolt and |
| Tx:26.22 | lost and so cannot be saved. Yet who can make a choice between the | wish for Heaven and the wish for hell unless he recognizes they are |
| Tx:26.22 | saved. Yet who can make a choice between the wish for Heaven and the | wish for hell unless he recognizes they are not the same? This |
| Tx:26.37 | more gone by. And everything which points to it as real is but a | wish that what is gone could be made real again and seen as here and |
| Tx:26.48 | The Son of God perceives what he would see, because perception is a | wish fulfilled. Perception changes, made to take the place of |
| Tx:26.51 | to what God gave as answer to them all. God's Will is One. And any | wish that seems to go against His Will has no foundation in the truth. |
| Tx:26.54 | and a thing apart. Yet what this symbol represents is but your | wish to be apart and separate. Forgiveness takes away what stands |
| Tx:26.54 | takes away what stands between your brother and yourself. It is the | wish that you be joined with him and not apart. We call it “wish” |
| Tx:26.55 | Yet is this | wish in line with Heaven's state and not in opposition to God's Will. |
| Tx:26.56 | Salvation, perfect and complete, asks but a little | wish that what is true be true; a little willingness to overlook what |
| Tx:26.60 | of what is idly wished as what is truly willed, because the mind can | wish to be deceived but cannot make it be what it is not. And to |
| Tx:26.63 | the Son of God reborn, until he chooses not to die again. In every | wish to hurt, he chooses death instead of what his Father wills for |
| Tx:26.65 | to lay aside the power that He gave and choose a little senseless | wish instead of what He wills. The gift of God to you is limitless. |
| Tx:26.77 | sleeps your own salvation with his freedom joined! However much you | wish he be condemned, God is in him. And never will you know He is in |
| Tx:27.1 | The | wish to be unfairly treated is a compromise attempt that would |

| Tx:28.37 | dream of sickness and of death. It means that you share not his | wish to separate and let him turn illusions on himself. Nor do you |
| Tx:28.37 | wish to separate and let him turn illusions on himself. Nor do you | wish that they be turned instead on you. Thus have they no effects. |

| W1:153.9 | defense because we are created unassailable, without all thought or | wish or dream in which attack has any meaning. Now we cannot fear, |
| W1:155.11 | the holy Son of God will make no journeys. There will be no | wish to be illusion rather than the truth. And we step forth toward |

| W1:163.1 | lack of trust; concern for bodies, envy, and all forms in which the | wish to be as you are not may come to tempt you. All such thoughts |
| W1:166.11 | Now do we live, for now we cannot die. The | wish for death is answered, and the sight that looked upon it now has |
| W1:183.7 | our only word, the only thing that occupies our minds, the only | wish we have, the only sound with any meaning, and the only name of |

| W1:191.3 | from your fingers every scrap of hope, leaving you nothing but the | wish to die. |
| W1:195.3 | that there is no hope remaining. Now is vengeance all there is to | wish for. Now can you but try to bring him down to lie in death with |

| Tx:17.74 | situation. It calls forth just the same suspension of faithlessness, | withheld and left unused, that faith might answer to the call of |

| Tx:23.44 | uphold a quiet, calm assurance it has come. Forgiveness cannot be | withheld a little. Nor is it possible to attack for this and love for |
| Tx:25.83 | A miracle is justice. It is not a special gift to some to be | withheld from others as less worthy, more condemned, and thus apart |

| Tx:1.84 | thus abolishing certain intervals within it. It does this, however, | within the larger temporal sequence. It establishes an out-of-pattern |

| Tx:2.44 | The Atonement can only be accepted | within you. You have perceived it largely as external thus far, and |
| Tx:2.46 | altar to receive the Atonement. This heals the separation and places | within man the one defense against all separation mind-errors which |
| Tx:2.49 | eyes seek dissolve in its sight. The Spiritual eye, which looks | within, recognizes immediately that the altar has been defiled and |
| Tx:2.71 | their dependence on time, making it quite apparent that charity lies | within the human limitations, though toward its higher levels. We |
| Tx:2.78 | to do so. This produces consistent behavior but entails great strain | within the self. |
| Tx:3.19 | Holy Trinity, but the Trinity itself is One. There is no confusion | within its levels because they are of One Mind and One Will. This |
| Tx:3.35 | even in its most spiritualized form. Knowledge comes from the altar | within and is timeless because it is certain. To perceive the truth |
| Tx:4.8 | nothing from the Soul can strengthen the ego or reduce the conflict | within it. The ego is a contradiction. Man's self and God's Self are |
| Tx:4.15 | of reality, which stands unchanged beyond the reach of your ego but | within easy reach of your Soul. When you are afraid, be still and |
| Tx:4.39 | do not mean anything in another, because they can be understood only | within the thought system of which they are a part. That is why |
| Tx:4.41 | You have never understood what “the Kingdom of Heaven is | within you” means. The reason you have not understood it is because |
| Tx:5.19 | at its sound. That is why you can choose to listen to two voices | within you. One you made yourself and that one is not of God. But the |
| Tx:5.29 | Hear only this through the Holy Spirit | within you, and teach your brothers to listen as I am teaching you. |
| Tx:5.31 | is for you to hear and give away as you answer the Holy Spirit | within you. |
| Tx:5.45 | beyond destruction and beyond guilt. They came from the Holy Spirit | within you, and we know what God creates is eternal. What fear has |
| Tx:5.46 | loving is true. Truth is beyond your ability to destroy but entirely | within your grasp. It belongs to you because you created it. It is |
| Tx:5.95 | the undoing process, which does not come from you, is nevertheless | within you because God placed it there. Your part is merely to return |
| Tx:6.32 | His Thought in His Mind. All His Thoughts are thus perfectly united | within themselves and with each other, because they were created |
| Tx:6.46 | When God created you, He made you part of Him. That is why attack | within the Kingdom is impossible. You made the ego without love, and |
| Tx:6.46 | ego without love, and so it does not love you. You could not remain | within the Kingdom without love, and since the Kingdom is love, you |
| Tx:6.88 | liberate your will from choice and direct it towards creation | within the Kingdom. Choosing through the Holy Spirit will lead you to |
| Tx:6.94 | Truth is without illusions and therefore | within the Kingdom. Everything outside the Kingdom is illusion, but |
| Tx:7.10 | yourself by sharing the Holy Spirit with him. This places you both | within the Kingdom and restores its wholeness in your minds. This |
| Tx:7.52 | in everything. It is everything, because it encompasses all things | within itself. Blessed are you who perceive only this, because you |
| Tx:7.61 | unless it is conflicted. If it is, there are conflicting components | within it which have engendered a state of war, and vigilance |
| Tx:7.85 | keep it. The belief that by giving it out you have excluded it from | within is a complete distortion of the power of extension. |
| Tx:8.4 | to the Kingdom that you cannot understand the state which prevails | within it. Your past learning must have taught you the wrong things |
| Tx:8.14 | The Will of God is without limit, and all power and glory lie | within it. It is boundless in strength and in love and in peace. It |
| Tx:8.29 | You can have guidance from without, but you must accept it from | within. The guidance must [become] what you want, or it will be |
| Tx:8.92 | an alien will upon you. He is merely making every possible effort, | within the limits you impose on Him, to re-establish your own will in |
| Tx:8.105 | do not try to look beyond yourself for truth, for truth can only be | within you. Say, therefore, |
| Tx:9.43 | You cannot evaluate an insane belief system from | within it. Its own range precludes this. You can only go beyond it, |
| Tx:9.43 | in you, you have chosen to be little and to lament your littleness. | Within the system which dictated this choice, the lament is |
| Tx:9.43 | and you do not ask, “Who granted it?” The question is meaningless | within the ego's thought system, because it opens the whole thought |
| Tx:9.44 | its foundation. And this must be questioned from beyond it, because, | within it, its foundation does stand. The Holy Spirit judges against |
| Tx:9.57 | Voice, reminds you of it, and God Himself keeps your extensions safe | within it. Yet you do not know them until you return to them. You |
| Tx:10.34 | is withdrawn from without, there is a strong tendency to harbor it | within. It is difficult at first to realize that this is exactly the |
| Tx:10.34 | this is exactly the same thing, for there is no distinction between | within and without. |
| Tx:10.67 | You will awaken to your own call, for the Call to awake is | within you. If I live in you, you are awake. Yet you must see the |
| Tx:10.83 | you. Do you believe I would deceive you? The Kingdom of Heaven is | within you. Believe that the truth is in me, for I know that it is in |
| Tx:11.2 | you have attacked the integrity of your mind and pitted one level | within it against another. |
| Tx:11.30 | and the recognition that it encompasses completely opposed thoughts | within itself is intolerable. Therefore the mind projects the split, |
| Tx:11.40 | you will be seeking it where it is not. You do not know how to look | within yourself, for you do not believe your home is there. Yet the |
| Tx:11.68 | different. The mind then sees a divided world outside itself but not | within. This gives it an illusion of integrity and enables it to |
| Tx:11.70 | think you have received anything else, it is because you have looked | within and thought you saw the power to give something else within |
| Tx:11.70 | looked within and thought you saw the power to give something else | within yourself. It was only this decision that determined what you |
| Tx:11.71 | You are afraid of me because you looked | within and are afraid of what you saw. Yet you could not have seen |
| Tx:11.72 | learn that you do want only that. And you will see me as you look | within, and we will look upon the world as God created it together. |
| Tx:11.73 | When you look | within and see me, it will be because you have decided to manifest |
| Tx:11.73 | truth. And as you manifest it, you will see it both without and | within, for you will see it without because you saw it first within. |
| Tx:11.73 | and within, for you will see it without because you saw it first | within. Everything you behold without is a judgment of what you |
| Tx:11.73 | Everything you behold without is a judgment of what you beheld | within. If it is your judgment, it will be wrong, for judgment is not |
| Tx:11.76 | that I did not die. You will realize that this is true when you look | within and see me. Would I have overcome death for myself alone? And |
| Tx:11.77 | you can kill the Son of God? The Father has hidden His Son safely | within Himself and kept him far away from your destructive thoughts, |
| Tx:12.11 | fear if you did not believe that, without the ego, you would find | within yourself something you fear even more. You are not afraid of |
| Tx:12.36 | private worlds, where everything is disordered and where what is | within appears to be without. Yet what is within they do not see, for |
| Tx:12.36 | and where what is within appears to be without. Yet what is | within they do not see, for the reality of their brothers they cannot |
| Tx:12.42 | and in this you are deceived. Beyond this darkness and yet still | within you is the vision of Christ, Who looks on all in light. Your |
| Tx:12.42 | its witnesses and drawing them unto you. For He loves what He sees | within you, and He would extend it. And He will not return unto the |
| Tx:12.43 | His Father. Beyond your darkest dreams, He sees God's guiltless Son | within you, shining in perfect radiance, which is undimmed by your |
| Tx:12.44 | to the Father. And all this will they understand because they looked | within and saw beyond the darkness the Christ in them and recognized |
| Tx:12.50 | for it holds the only things that are forever true. All healing lies | within it because its continuity is real. It extends to all aspects |
| Tx:12.63 | Him not. His Being does not depend upon your recognition. He lives | within you in the quiet present and waits for you to leave the past |
| Tx:12.65 | be. In perfect sanity he looks on love, for it is all about him and | within him. He must deny the world of pain the instant he perceives |
| Tx:12.71 | may become, no world outside himself holds his inheritance. | Within himself he has no needs, for light needs nothing but to shine |
| Tx:13.17 | Guilt makes you blind, for while you see one spot of guilt | within you, you will not see the light. And by projecting it, the |
| Tx:13.17 | throw a dark veil over it and cannot see it because you cannot look | within. You are afraid of what you would see there, but it is not |
| Tx:13.17 | but it is not there. The thing you fear is gone. If you would look | within, you would see only the Atonement, shining in quiet and in |
| Tx:13.18 | Do not be afraid to look | within. The ego tells you all is black with guilt within you and bids |
| Tx:13.18 | be afraid to look within. The ego tells you all is black with guilt | within you and bids you not to look. Instead, it bids you look upon |
| Tx:13.18 | in which they shroud them, are too afraid to look upon the light | within. Within you is not what you believe is there and what you put |
| Tx:13.18 | they shroud them, are too afraid to look upon the light within. | Within you is not what you believe is there and what you put your |
| Tx:13.19 | Within you is the holy sign of perfect faith your Father has in you. | |
| Tx:13.19 | but you cannot change it. Look, then, upon the light He placed | within you and learn that what you feared was there has been replaced |
| Tx:13.22 | they do believe in it. Yet, though they suffer, they will not look | within and let it go. They cannot know they love and cannot |
| Tx:13.24 | guilt in you. For you will have accepted the Atonement, which shone | within you all the while you dreamed of guilt and would not look |
| Tx:13.24 | within you all the while you dreamed of guilt and would not look | within and see it. |
| Tx:13.25 | justified in any way in anyone whatever he may do, you will not look | within, where you would always find Atonement. The end of guilt will |
| Tx:13.27 | is pressing everywhere upon him from without. When he has looked | within and seen the radiance there, he will remember how much his |
| Tx:13.28 | how much you love Him. Yet it is forever true. In shining peace | within you is the perfect purity in which you were created. Fear not |
| Tx:13.29 | from guilt as you would be released. There is no other way to look | within and see the light of love shining as steadily and as surely as |
| Tx:13.29 | always loved your Father can have no fear for any reason to look | within and see your holiness. You cannot be as you believed you were. |
| Tx:13.29 | vision, He would show you the perfect purity that is forever | within God's Son. |
| Tx:13.32 | purity, wholly untouched by guilt and wholly loving, is bright | within you. Let us look upon him together and love him. For in our |
| Tx:13.42 | The Communication Link which God Himself placed | within you, joining your minds with His, cannot be broken. You may |
| Tx:13.44 | Can God's Son lose himself in dreams when God has placed | within him the glad call to waken and be glad? He cannot separate |
| Tx:13.82 | remain in close communication with Him and with everything that is | within Him, as it is within yourself. Unlearn isolation through His |
| Tx:13.82 | with Him and with everything that is within Him, as it is | within yourself. Unlearn isolation through His loving guidance and |
| Tx:13.86 | You will not see the symbol of your brother's guiltlessness shining | within him while you still believe it is not there. His guiltlessness |
| Tx:13.90 | are wrong about yourself. He created you out of Himself but still | within Him. He knows what you are. Remember that there is no second |
| Tx:14.4 | for only He knows what God is. Everything else that you have placed | within your mind cannot exist, for what is not in communication with |
| Tx:14.8 | purity to remain hidden, but shine away the heavy veils of guilt | within which the Son of God has hidden himself from his own sight. We |
| Tx:14.11 | in your safe inclusion in what is for all in everyone you bring | within its safety and its perfect peace. |
| Tx:14.12 | the acknowledgment of perfect purity from which no one is excluded. | Within its holy circle is everyone whom God created as His Son. Joy |
| Tx:14.12 | draws everyone to its safe embrace of love and union. Stand quietly | within this circle and attract all tortured minds to join with you in |
| Tx:14.12 | join with you in the safety of its peace and holiness. Abide with me | within it as teachers of Atonement, not of guilt. |
| Tx:14.13 | In guiltlessness we know Him, as He knows us guiltless. I stand | within the circle, calling you to peace. Teach peace with me and |
| Tx:14.13 | cannot teach His perfect peace. Stand not outside but join with me | within. Fail not the only purpose to which my teaching calls you. |
| Tx:14.15 | Each one you see you place | within the holy circle of Atonement or leave outside, judging him fit |
| Tx:14.15 | in the holy place of peace, which is for all of us, united as one | within the cause of peace. |
| Tx:14.17 | The quiet light in which the Holy Spirit dwells | within you is merely perfect openness in which nothing is hidden and |
| Tx:14.25 | lost nor sought nor found. It is there, wherever you are, being | within you. Yet it can be recognized or unrecognized, real or false |
| Tx:14.34 | not this. And yet you do know God and also this. All this is safe | within you, where the Holy Spirit shines. He shines not in division, |
| Tx:14.40 | gods upon it. The temple still is holy, for the Presence that dwells | within it is Holiness. |
| Tx:15.39 | I stand | within the holy instant, as clear as you would have me. And the |
| Tx:15.56 | equally impossible to condemn part of a relationship and find peace | within it. Under the Holy Spirit's teaching, all relationships are |
| Tx:15.60 | the mind that thought it and could not relinquish it. By holding it | within itself, there was no loss. The holy instant thus becomes a |
| Tx:15.102 | in darkness. See it not outside yourself but shining in the Heaven | within and accept it as the sign the time of Christ has come. He |
| Tx:15.104 | part of you. Who can perceive part of himself as loathsome and live | within himself in peace? And who can try to resolve the perceived |
| Tx:16.24 | real cause and effect relationship that is perfectly apparent. Yet | within you is everything you taught. What can it be that has not |
| Tx:16.28 | by the united will of all who make Heaven what it is, being joined | within it. And so the one who would cross over is literally |
| Tx:16.32 | the haven by attempting to build barricades against it and keep | within them. The special love relationship is not perceived as a |
| Tx:16.35 | not to seek for love but merely to seek and find all of the barriers | within yourself which you have built against it. It is not necessary |
| Tx:16.35 | love outside yourself, you can be certain that you perceive hatred | within and are afraid of it. Yet peace will never come from the |
| Tx:16.63 | as it is seen here. For the little spark which holds the Great Rays | within it is also visible, and this spark cannot be limited long to |
| Tx:16.68 | is increased with each light that returns to take its rightful place | within it. Wait no longer, for the love of God and you. And may the |
| Tx:17.30 | it and by His blessing enabled it to be healed. This blessing holds | within itself the truth about everything. And the truth is that the |
| Tx:17.54 | shining and gracious in your awareness of time but not concealed | within it. The instant remains. But where are you? To give thanks to |
| Tx:17.55 | outside you, you could not share in its gladness. Yet because it is | within, the gladness, too, is yours. You are joined in purpose, but |
| Tx:18.6 | [It was inevitable.] For truth brought to this could only remain | within in quiet and take no part in all the mad projection by which |
| Tx:18.7 | it is the other way; that truth is outside and error and guilt | within. Your little senseless substitutions, touched with insanity |
| Tx:18.8 | from sight, far, far outside you. And turn you to the stately calm | within, where in holy stillness dwells the living God you never left |
| Tx:18.8 | outside yourself, leading you gently back to the truth and safety | within. He brings all your insane projections and your wild |
| Tx:18.9 | and sharing and substituting have nothing in common in reality. | Within yourselves you love each other with a perfect love. Here is |
| Tx:18.11 | is glad that your relationship is as it was created.] The universe | within you stands with you, together. And Heaven looks with love on |
| Tx:18.12 | world and through another to the loveliness and joy the other holds | within it. Would you still further weaken and break apart what is |
| Tx:18.18 | it, you do not doubt that it is real. Yet here is a world, clearly | within your mind, that seems to be outside. You do not respond to it |
| Tx:18.21 | be a happy dream, and one which you will share with all who come | within your sight. Through it, the blessing which the Holy Spirit has |
| Tx:18.45 | Nor is your holy relationship a dream. All that remains of dreams | within it is that it is still a special relationship. Yet it is very |
| Tx:18.49 | there is nothing else; nothing outside this Oneness and nothing else | within. |
| Tx:18.56 | which reach each other.] Mind reaches to itself. It does not go out. | Within itself it has no limits, and there is nothing outside it. [It |
| Tx:18.56 | it. [It encompasses everything.] It encompasses you entirely; you | within it, and it within you. There is nothing else, anywhere or ever. |
| Tx:18.56 | everything.] It encompasses you entirely; you within it, and it | within you. There is nothing else, anywhere or ever. |
| Tx:18.62 | appeal the holy instant holds. It calls to you to be yourself | within its safe embrace. There are the laws of limit lifted for you, |
| Tx:18.69 | has no need for time. To do nothing is to rest and make a place | within you where the activity of the body ceases to demand attention. |
| Tx:18.71 | for it was made to limit you. Can you who see yourselves | within a body know yourself as an idea? Everything you recognize you |
| Tx:18.72 | little segment of Heaven splintered from the whole, proclaiming that | within it is your kingdom, where God can enter not. |
| Tx:18.73 | Within this kingdom the ego rules, and cruelly. And to defend this | |
| Tx:18.77 | sun nor ocean is the power that rests in you. Would you remain | within your tiny kingdom, a sorry king, a bitter ruler of all he |
| Tx:18.85 | surrounded by darkness, guarded by attack, and reinforced by hate. | Within its barricades is still a tiny segment of the Son of God, |
| Tx:18.98 | lifting the shadows from the world and carrying it safe and sure | within its gentleness to the bright world of new and clean |
| Tx:19.37 | which He will bring means and goal in line. The peace He laid deep | within both of you] will quietly extend to every aspect of your |

| Tx:19.40 | never leaving you. If you would make it homeless, how can it abide | within the Son of God? If it would spread across the whole creation, |
| Tx:19.42 | The Holy Spirit's purpose rests in peace | within you. Yet you are still unwilling to let it join you wholly. |
| Tx:19.64 | there already. We will surmount all obstacles together, for we stand | within the gates and not outside. How easily the gates are opened |
| Tx:19.64 | the gates and not outside. How easily the gates are opened from | within to let peace through to bless the tired world! Can it be |
| Tx:19.65 | of the end of guilt, remembering that what I signify to you, you see | within yourself? |
| Tx:19.66 | the truth, and love looks on itself. Salvation flows from deep | within the home you offered to my Father and to me. And we are there |
| Tx:19.67 | I taught by teaching freedom to each other and so releasing me. I am | within your holy relationship, yet you would imprison me behind the |
| Tx:19.75 | must regard the body as himself, without which he would die, and yet | within which is his death equally inevitable. |
| Tx:19.86 | It needs not your protection; it is yours. For it is deathless, and | within it lies the end of death. |
| Tx:19.96 | your will. For what attracts you from beyond the veil is also deep | within you, unseparated from it and completely one. |
| Tx:19.107 | guiltless as I look on you, and overlook the sins he thinks he sees | within himself. Offer each other freedom and complete release from |
| Tx:19.110 | would lift you far beyond the veil and place the Son of God safely | within the sure protection of his Father. Here is the only purpose |
| Tx:20.13 | guiding light and sure protection, and shining from the holy altar | within him where you laid the lilies of forgiveness. Let him be to |
| Tx:20.13 | of fear, lighting each other's way. The holiness that leads us is | within us, as is our home. So will we find what we were meant to find |
| Tx:20.14 | present. Now is he free, unlimited in his communion with all that is | within him. Now are the lilies of his innocence untouched by guilt |
| Tx:20.18 | do not interfere with truth. They are not afraid of it, for it is | within the truth they recognized their holiness and rejoiced at what |
| Tx:20.19 | by their adjustments. And they look out in sorrow from what is sad | within and see the sadness there. |
| Tx:20.27 | no sin and it must look on others as on itself. Looking with charity | within, what can it fear without? The innocent see safety, and the |
| Tx:20.27 | fear without? The innocent see safety, and the pure in heart see God | within His Son and look unto the Son to lead them to the Father. And |
| Tx:20.30 | What could this be but madness? And is it this that you would see | within your savior from insanity? He is as free from this as you are, |
| Tx:20.32 | sinless give as they received. See, then, the power of sinlessness | within your brother and share with him the power of the release from |
| Tx:20.50 | kept “safe” from Him. But what you do not realize is what you fear | within your brother and would not see in him is what makes God seem |
| Tx:20.54 | the Son of God has with his Father in reality. The Holy Spirit rests | within it in the certainty it will endure forever. Its firm |
| Tx:20.73 | imagination. But vision sets all things right, bringing them gently | within the kindly sway of Heaven's laws. What if you recognized this |
| Tx:20.75 | They are the means by which the outside world, projected from | within, adjusts to sin and seems to witness to its reality. It still |
| Tx:20.76 | What has no meaning cannot be perceived. And meaning always looks | within to find itself and then looks out. All meaning that you give |
| Tx:20.76 | that you give the world outside must thus reflect the sight you saw | within; or better, if you saw at all or merely judged against. Vision |
| Tx:21.2 | And if this is its meaning, then the power to give it joy must lie | within you.] |
| Tx:21.10 | to infinity, forever shining and with no break or limit anywhere. | Within it everything is joined in perfect continuity. Nor is it |
| Tx:21.11 | Here is the memory of what you are—a part of this, with all of it | within and joined to all as surely as all is joined in you. Accept |
| Tx:21.17 | himself by chance or accident. No accident nor chance is possible | within the universe as God created it, outside of which is nothing. |
| Tx:21.23 | of vision and suspended judgment. Then only is it possible to look | within and see what must be there plainly in sight and wholly |
| Tx:21.41 | but this makes no one fearful. You are indeed afraid to look | within and see the sin you think is there. This you would not be |
| Tx:21.42 | the ego is not certain it is so. Beneath your fear to look | within because of sin is yet another fear and one which makes the ego |
| Tx:21.43 | What if you looked | within and saw no sin? This “fearful” question is one the ego never |
| Tx:21.43 | has been already shaken, nor are you now entirely unwilling to look | within and see it not. |
| Tx:21.44 | still is only partial—still limited and incomplete, yet born | within you. Not wholly mad, you have been willing to look on much of |
| Tx:21.46 | would withdraw from you in rage at your “presumptuous” wish to look | within, you do not want. A few remaining trinkets still seem to shine |
| Tx:22.1 | individual perception, seen in the other yet believed by each to be | within himself. And each one seems to make a different error, and one |
| Tx:22.3 | relationship starts from a different premise. Each one has looked | within and seen no lack. Accepting his completion, he would extend it |
| Tx:22.37 | one is valued because he seems to justify the other's sin. He sees | within the other what impels him to sin against his will. And thus he |
| Tx:22.49 | looks like an enormous solid body, immovable as is a mountain. Yet | within you there is a Force which no illusions can resist. This body |
| Tx:23.7 | War is impossible unless belief in victory is cherished. Conflict | within you must imply that you believe the ego has the power to be |
| Tx:23.25 | Who caused it and to Whom appeal is useless. Nor can salvation lie | within the Son, whose every aspect seems to be at war with Him and |
| Tx:23.45 | and that attack is justified on its behalf cannot perceive it lies | within them. How could they know? Could they accept forgiveness side |
| Tx:23.46 | look down on it in safety from above and not be touched. But from | within it, you can find no safety. Not one tree left standing still |
| Tx:24.19 | Think of the loveliness that you will see | within yourself when you have looked on him as on a friend. He is the |
| Tx:24.39 | and when you suffer pain of any kind, you have beheld some sin | within your brother and have rejoiced at what you thought was there. |
| Tx:24.45 | the way. His love for God replaces all the fear you thought you saw | within yourself. His holiness shows you Himself in him whose hand you |
| Tx:24.48 | He is one with you and that this Oneness is endless, timeless, and | within your grasp because your hands are His. He is within you, yet |
| Tx:24.48 | timeless, and within your grasp because your hands are His. He is | within you, yet He walks beside you and before, leading the way that |
| Tx:24.51 | failed to lay before you lovingly as yours forever. And no thought | within His Mind is absent from your own. It is His Will you share His |
| Tx:24.54 | for everywhere and find no sight nor place nor time where He is not. | Within your brother's holiness, the perfect frame for your salvation |
| Tx:24.54 | you. Your brother's body shows not Christ to you. He is set forth | within his holiness. |
| Tx:24.59 | are a separate universe with all the power to hold itself complete | within itself, with every entry shut against intrusion and every |
| Tx:24.63 | The memory of God shines not alone. What is | within your brother still contains all of creation, everything |
| Tx:24.67 | one, and one with Him. This is the state of true creation, found not | within time, but in eternity. To no one here is this describable. Nor |
| Tx:24.71 | with no provisions made for evidence beyond itself and no escape | within its sight. Its course is sure when seen through its own eyes. |
| Tx:24.72 | do you see outside yourself, your own beloved son. The other rests | within, His Father's Son, within your brother as he is in you. Their |
| Tx:24.72 | your own beloved son. The other rests within, His Father's Son, | within your brother as he is in you. Their difference does not lie in |
| Tx:25.1 | not a body. Yet He is in you. And thus it must be that you are not | within a body. What is within you cannot be outside. And it is |
| Tx:25.1 | in you. And thus it must be that you are not within a body. What is | within you cannot be outside. And it is certain that you cannot be |
| Tx:25.1 | gives you life cannot be housed in death. No more can you. Christ is | within a frame of holiness whose only purpose is that He may be made |
| Tx:25.2 | Yet does the Son of God abide exactly where he is and walks with him | within his holiness, as plain to see as is his specialness set forth |
| Tx:25.2 | within his holiness, as plain to see as is his specialness set forth | within his body. |
| Tx:25.8 | Christ and His Father never have been separate, and Christ abides | within your understanding in the part of you that shares His Father's |
| Tx:25.10 | could never be the teacher of a Oneness which unites all things | within itself. And so What is within this mind and does unite all |
| Tx:25.10 | of a Oneness which unites all things within itself. And so What is | within this mind and does unite all things together must be its |
| Tx:25.15 | Its past has failed. Be glad that it is gone | within your mind to darken what is there. Take not the form for |
| Tx:25.16 | as a body, it is but this you do. The masterpiece that God has set | within this frame is all there is to see. The body holds it for a |
| Tx:25.16 | needs no frame, for what He has created He supports and frames | within Himself. His masterpiece He offers you to see. And would you |
| Tx:25.17 | cherishes the frame instead of it. Yet God has set His masterpiece | within a frame that will endure forever when yours has crumbled into |
| Tx:25.19 | Within the darkness, see the savior from the dark and understand your | |
| Tx:25.19 | His gentleness becomes your strength, and both will gladly look | within and see the holiness that must be there because of what you |
| Tx:25.26 | be established and maintained without some link that kept it still | within the laws of God; not as the law itself upholds the universe as |
| Tx:25.27 | he stay more than an instant.] For he has come with Heaven's Help | within him ready to lead him out of darkness into light at any time. |
| Tx:25.35 | the world cannot destroy. For it is large enough to hold the world | within its peace. |
| Tx:25.46 | and fulfills the part assigned to him to make himself complete | within a world where incompletion rules. |
| Tx:25.52 | a place of madness. Not one Thought of His makes any sense at all | within this world. And nothing that the world believes as true has |
| Tx:25.55 | who believe theirs is the way to sanity. But sin is equally insane | within the sight of love, whose gentle eyes would look beyond the |
| Tx:25.58 | From this position does his sinfulness and all the sin he sees | within the world offer him less and less— until he comes to |
| Tx:25.69 | friend. What could He be to them except a devil dressed to deceive | within an angel's cloak? And what escape has He for them except a |
| Tx:25.75 | circumstance that this is true. Nor need you look to your experience | within the world, which is but shadows of all that is really |
| Tx:25.75 | the world, which is but shadows of all that is really happening | within yourself. The understanding which you need comes not of you |
| Tx:26.2 | and what is out can never reach and join with what is locked away | within the wall. Each part must sacrifice the other part to keep |
| Tx:26.4 | asked of anyone. What witness to the wholeness of God's Son is seen | within a world of separate bodies, however much he witnesses to |
| Tx:26.9 | Condemn him not by seeing him | within the rotting prison where he sees himself. It is your special |
| Tx:26.23 | of alternatives for choice. That there is choice is an illusion. Yet | within this one lies the undoing of every illusion, not excepting |
| Tx:26.25 | in boundless love could need forgiveness. And what is charity | within the world gives way to simple justice past the gate that opens |
| Tx:26.29 | still. And each one joins the singing at the altar which was raised | within the tiny spot that sin proclaimed to be its own. And what was |
| Tx:26.32 | tick of time in which the first mistake was made, and all of them | within that one mistake, held also the Correction for that one and |
| Tx:26.32 | held also the Correction for that one and all of them that came | within the first. And in that tiny instant time was gone, for that |
| Tx:26.56 | and desolation seem to rule. In joyous answer will creation rise | within you to replace the world you see with Heaven, wholly perfect |
| Tx:26.56 | can remain unhealed and broken from a Unity Which holds all things | within Itself? There is no sin. And every miracle is possible the |
| Tx:26.65 | circumstance it cannot answer and no problem which is not resolved | within its gracious light. |
| Tx:26.71 | be perceived in future time. No more can it be overlooked except | within the present. Future loss is not your fear. But present joining |
| Tx:26.72 | The plans you make for safety all are laid | within the future, where you cannot plan. No purpose has been given |
| Tx:26.72 | For a miracle is now. It stands already here in present grace, | within the only interval of time which sin and fear have overlooked |
| Tx:26.77 | Regard him gently. Look with loving eyes on him who carries Christ | within him, that you may behold His glory and rejoice that Heaven is |
| Tx:26.82 | up. There is no place in Heaven holier. And They have come to dwell | within the temple offered them, to be Their resting-place as well as |
| Tx:26.84 | a cross stands now the risen Christ, and ancient scars are healed | within His sight. An ancient miracle has come to bless and to replace |
| Tx:26.90 | is fair because the Holy Spirit has brought injustice to the light | within, and there has all unfairness been resolved and been replaced |
| Tx:27.9 | that sin and death are real, and innocence and sin will end alike | within the termination of the grave. If this were true, there would |
| Tx:27.24 | to a half. And these two halves appear to represent a split | within a self perceived as two.] |
| Tx:27.34 | concepts. Though it is but half the picture and is incomplete, | within itself it is the same. The other half of what it represents |
| Tx:27.38 | Attempt to solve no problems but | within the holy instant's surety. For there the problem will be |
| Tx:27.38 | answered, but only to restate its point of view. All questions asked | within this world are but a way of looking, not a question asked. A |
| Tx:27.40 | It dictates the answer even as it asks. Thus is all questioning | within the world a form of propaganda for itself. Just as the body's |
| Tx:27.40 | for itself. Just as the body's witnesses are but the senses from | within itself, so are the answers to the questions of the world |
| Tx:27.40 | itself, so are the answers to the questions of the world contained | within the questions. Where answers represent the questions, they add |
| Tx:27.41 | for he does not want an honest answer where the conflict ends. Only | within the holy instant can an honest question honestly be asked. And |
| Tx:27.42 | the mind is still enough to hear an answer which is not entailed | within the question asked. It offers something new and different from |
| Tx:27.43 | from them, and see what can be answered—what the question is. | Within the world the answers merely raise another question, though |
| Tx:27.47 | for the One Who blesses you loves all the world and leaves nothing | within the world that could be feared. But if you shrink from |
| Tx:27.50 | forms. All learning aims at transfer, which becomes complete | within two situations which are seen as one, for only common elements |
| Tx:27.51 | not the way that you perceive them. You are wrong, but there is One | within you Who is right. |
| Tx:27.53 | to let you understand that you have benefited from it. What occurred | within the instant which love entered in without attack will stay |
| Tx:27.54 | This is the law of purpose, which unites all those who share in it | within itself. Pleasure and pain are equally unreal, because their |
| Tx:27.55 | witness is the same and carries but one message: “You are here | within this body, and you can be hurt. You can have pleasure, too, |
| Tx:27.56 | This body, purposeless | within itself, holds all your memories and all your hopes. You use |
| Tx:27.57 | it is not real. For nothing could contain what you believe it holds | within. Nor could it tell a part of God Himself what it should feel |
| Tx:27.59 | but a single sound—a call for healing and a plaintive cry for help | within a world of misery. It is their sameness that the miracle |
| Tx:27.65 | a need. The world's escape from condemnation is a need which those | within the world are joined in sharing. Yet they do not recognize |
| Tx:27.67 | you should look to find the truth. The witnesses to sin all stand | within one little space. And it is here you find the cause of your |
| Tx:27.69 | shadow, leaping up and down according to a senseless plot conceived | within the idle dreaming of the world. |
| Tx:27.83 | God which can attack itself; a separate brother as an enemy; a mind | within a body, all are forms of circularity whose ending starts at |
| Tx:27.83 | brings its vengeance, not your own. It keeps you narrowly confined | within a body, which it punishes because of all the sinful things the |
| Tx:27.83 | which it punishes because of all the sinful things the body does | within its dream. You have no power to make the body stop its evil |
| Tx:28.5 | nor appoint what it is for. Like to the body, it is purposeless | within itself. And if it seems to serve to cherish ancient hate and |
| Tx:28.5 | made to keep the past alive, the present dead, are stored | within it, waiting your command that they be brought to you and lived |
| Tx:28.17 | must all healing come about because the mind is recognized as not | within the body, and its innocence is quite apart from it and where |
| Tx:28.18 | causelessness is given no effects and none are seen. A mind | within a body and a world of other bodies, each with separate minds, |
| Tx:28.20 | This world is causeless, as is every dream that anyone has dreamed | within the world. No plans are possible and no design exists that |
| Tx:28.34 | and golden dreams of happiness as all the treasures you would keep | within the storehouse of the world. The door is open, not to thieves |
| Tx:28.34 | break it into days and months and years? And what are you who live | within the world except a picture of the Son of God in broken pieces, |
| Tx:28.34 | except a picture of the Son of God in broken pieces, each concealed | within a separate and uncertain bit of clay? |
| Tx:28.44 | evil dream, this is the picture that the miracle will place | within the little gap, left clean of all the seeds of sickness and of |
| Tx:28.46 | and what is not of Him has no effects. What then would you perceive | within the gap? The seeds of sickness come from the belief that there |
| Tx:28.51 | not the body's ears and eyes perceive these countless fragments seen | within the gap which you imagined, and let them persuade their maker |
| Tx:28.53 | and you behold the innocence and emptiness of sin that you will see | within yourself when you have lost the fear of recognizing love. |
| Tx:28.66 | and yet this house will stand forever, for its strength lies not | within itself alone. It is an ark of safety, resting on God's promise |
| Tx:29.5 | seen between you. Thus do you endow it with a power that lies not | within itself. And herein lies its power over you. For now you think |
| Tx:29.21 | built to keep apart all living things who know not that they live. | Within the dream of bodies and of death is yet one theme of truth— |
| Tx:29.22 | And as you see him shining in the space of light where God abides | within the darkness, you will see that God Himself is where his body |
| Tx:29.24 | must be as bright as shines in him. This is the spark that shines | within the dream—that you can help him waken and be sure his waking |
| Tx:29.26 | of fear, no matter what the form it seems to take. The fear is seen | within, without, or both. Or it can be disguised in pleasant form. |
| Tx:29.32 | The changelessness of Heaven is in you, so deep | within that nothing in this world but passes by, unnoticed and |
| Tx:29.32 | might of its Creator; nothing can intrude upon the sacred Son of God | within. Here is the role the Holy Spirit gives to you who wait upon |
| Tx:29.45 | appears to be outside himself. Yet does he seek to kill God's Son | within and prove that he is victor over him. This is the purpose |
| Tx:29.46 | Seek not outside yourself. The search implies you are not whole | within and fear to look upon your devastation and prefer to seek |
| Tx:29.48 | All idols of this world were made to keep the truth | within from being known to you and to maintain allegiance to the |
| Tx:29.48 | happy. It is vain to worship idols in the hope of peace. God dwells | within, and your completion lies in Him. No idol takes His place. |
| Tx:29.49 | of idols found outside yourself, with power to make complete what is | within by splitting what you are between the two. You choose your |
| Tx:29.53 | the misery the world reflects. This is the penalty for looking not | within for certainty and quiet calm which liberates you from the |
| Tx:29.55 | to a sign of death. Its form is nowhere, for its source abides | within your mind, where God abideth not. Where is this place where |
| Tx:29.60 | purpose here. For more than Heaven can you never have. If Heaven is | within, why would you seek for idols which would make of Heaven less, |
| Tx:29.63 | that who judges him will not escape the penalty he laid upon himself | within the dream he made. God knows of justice, not of penalty. But |
| Tx:29.64 | accomplished and have done to make you sinful and put out the light | within you. Little children, it is there. You do but dream, and idols |
| Tx:29.68 | the holiness which never left the altar which abides forever deep | within the Son of God. And when he hears this song again, he knows he |
| Tx:30.39 | you lose the understanding of its purpose. So you see your will | within the idol, thus reducing it to a specific form. Yet this could |
| Tx:30.43 | thought of you. And so there are no separate parts in what exists | within God's Mind. It is forever one, eternally united and at peace. |
| Tx:30.44 | and will be just the same when you remember. And it is the same | within the interval when you forgot. |
| Tx:30.64 | of the world of fear when you have recognized Whose hand you hold! | Within your hand is everything you need to walk with perfect |
| Tx:30.76 | image of yourself that is not whole and will remain afraid to look | within and find escape from every idol there. Salvation rests on |
| Tx:31.8 | you will understand it was this call that everyone and everything | within the world has always made, but you had not perceived it as it |
| Tx:31.11 | you want disaster and disunity and pain. Hear not the call for this | within yourself. But listen, rather, to the deeper call beyond it |
| Tx:31.28 | on its own and motivate itself. If you are sin, you lock the mind | within the body, and you give its purpose to its prison-house, which |
| Tx:31.29 | its prisoner. And it grows old and dies because that mind is sick | within itself. Learning is all that causes change. And so the body, |
| Tx:31.33 | And you are in control of outcomes of your choosing. Thus you think | within the narrow band from birth to death a little time is given you |
| Tx:31.35 | point and go beyond it. It is true indeed there is no choice at all | within the world. But this is not the lesson in itself. The lesson |
| Tx:31.36 | which you see the purpose of the lesson shining clear, and perfectly | within your learning grasp. |
| Tx:31.41 | worldly goal is one with His. What road in all the world will lead | within, when every road was made to separate the journey from the |
| Tx:31.44 | suffering and sometimes offers solace. It believes that it is good | within an evil world. |
| Tx:31.49 | be used to demonstrate the world is real. For all of them are made | within the world, born in its shadow, growing in its ways, and |
| Tx:31.64 | place. How is this done? It is not done at all. What could there be | within the universe which God created that must still be done? |
| Tx:31.73 | to hold it past the hope of change and keep it static and concealed | within your mind. Give it instead to Him Who understands the changes |
| Tx:31.75 | Behold your role | within the universe! To every part of true creation has the Lord of |
| Tx:31.78 | For holiness is seen through holy eyes that look upon the innocence | within and thus expect to see it everywhere. And so they call it |
| Tx:31.93 | I ask for nothing but your own release. There is no place for hell | within a world whose loveliness can yet be so intense and so |
| W1:4.3 | of learning to see the meaningless as outside you and the meaningful | within. It is also the beginning of training your mind to recognize |
| W1:10.3 | thoughts of which you are aware are meaningless, outside rather than | within, and then stressed their past rather than their present |
| W1:30.3 | applies to everything you do see now or could see now if it were | within the range of your sight. |
| W1:30.5 | your eyes closed, using whatever subjects come to mind and looking | within rather than without. Today's idea applies equally to both. |
| W1:31.1 | be applied to both the world you see without and the world you see | within. In applying the idea, we will use a form of practice which |
| W1:41.2 | it is, despite the serious and tragic forms it may take. Deep | within you is everything that is perfect, ready to radiate through |
| W1:41.4 | not believe all this. How could you, when the truth is hidden deep | within under a heavy cloud of insane thoughts, dense and obscuring, |
| W1:44.2 | In order to see, you must recognize that light is | within, not without. You do not see outside yourself, nor is the |
| W1:50.3 | illusions. They will fail you. Put all your faith in the Love of God | within you, eternal, changeless and forever unfailing. This is the |
| W1:57.6 | my brothers, I begin to understand that this peace comes from deep | within myself. The world I look upon has taken on the light of my |
| W1:70.15 | My salvation comes from me. Nothing outside of me can hold me back. | Within me is the world's salvation and my own. |
| W1:73.5 | will look for it. Your picture of the world can only mirror what is | within. The source of neither light nor darkness can be found |
| W1:77.3 | the world you made. You have been assured that the Kingdom of God is | within you and can never be lost. We ask no more than what belongs to |
| W1:85.5 | myself. It is not found outside and then brought in. But from | within me it will reach beyond, and everything I see will but reflect |
| W1:91.4 | When you have felt the strength in you which makes all miracles | within your easy reach, you will not doubt. The miracles your sense |
| W1:95.1 | Today's idea accurately describes you as God created you. You are one | within yourself and one with Him. Yours is the unity of all creation. |
| W1:95.18 | the Son of God Himself, sinless as its Creator, with His strength | within you and His love forever yours. You are One Self, and it is |
| W1:95.18 | yours. You are One Self, and it is given you to feel this Self | within you and to cast all your illusions out of the One Mind which |
| W1:95.20 | do so, someone hears the voice of hope, the stirring of the truth | within his mind, the gentle rustling of the wings of peace. Your own |
| W1:96.3 | Problems that have no meaning cannot be resolved | within the framework they are set. Two selves in conflict could not |
| W1:96.5 | mind can also see itself divorced from Spirit and perceive itself | within a body it confuses with itself. Without its function then, it |
| W1:96.8 | Your Self retains its thoughts, and they remain | within your mind and in the Mind of God. The Holy Spirit holds |
| W1:96.9 | One Self. Our hourly five minute practicing will be a search for Him | within your mind. Salvation comes from this One Self through Him Who |
| W1:99.3 | be a meeting place at all where earth and Heaven can be reconciled | within a mind where both of them exist? The mind that sees illusions |
| W1:99.5 | Holy Spirit holds this plan of God exactly as it was received of Him | within the Mind of God and in your own. It is apart from time in that |
| W1:100.9 | this you came. Let this one be the day that you succeed! Look deep | within you, undismayed by all the little thoughts and foolish goals |
| W1:102.6 | Then seek this function deep | within your mind, for it is there, awaiting but your choice. You |
| W1:103.6 | Allow this one correction to be placed | within your mind each waking hour today. Then welcome all the |
| W1:104.3 | These are the gifts which are | within us now, for they are timeless. And we need not wait to have |
| W1:104.7 | We clear a holy place | within our minds before His altar, where His gifts of peace and joy |
| W1:106.3 | past all things which do not speak of Him Who holds your happiness | within His hand, held out to you in welcome and in love. Hear only |
| W1:109.9 | You rest | within the peace of God today and call upon your brothers from your |
| W1:109.10 | friends—bid them all enter here and rest with you. You rest | within the peace of God today, quiet and unafraid. Each brother comes |
| W1:110.4 | from His, no split between your mind and other minds, and only unity | within your own. |
| W1:110.8 | in your mind the Self Who is the holy Son of God Himself. Seek Him | within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of God and brother to the |
| W1:R3.6 | Place the ideas | within your mind and let it use them as it chooses. Give it faith |
| W1:111.2 | of holiness and truth light up my mind And let me see the innocence | within. |
| W1:113.3 | from my One Self. From my One Self, Whose knowledge still remains | Within my mind, I see God's perfect plan For my salvation perfectly |
| W1:121.11 | you hold of him. Look at this picture till you see a light somewhere | within it, and then try to let this light extend until it covers him |
| W1:122.6 | answer! Would you stand outside while all of Heaven waits for you | within? Forgive and be forgiven. As you give, you will receive. There |
| W1:122.9 | and gladly will we seek for it today, aware we hold the key | within our hands, accepting Heaven's answer to the hell we made, but |
| W1:124.2 | How holy are our minds! And everything we see reflects the holiness | within the mind at one with God and with itself. How easily do errors |
| W1:124.5 | restoring them to life. All this we see because we saw it first | within ourselves. |
| W1:124.10 | to look upon yourself. When you are ready, you will find it there | within your mind and waiting to be found. You will remember then the |
| W1:125.1 | Your Father wills you hear His Word today. He calls to you from deep | within your mind where He abides. Hear Him today. No peace is |
| W1:125.4 | time of peace. We gather at the throne of God today, the quiet place | within the mind where He abides forever in the holiness which He |
| W1:125.6 | desires have been stilled. Await His Word in quiet. There is peace | within you to be called upon today to help make ready your most holy |
| W1:127.5 | the truth of what love is, and what you are as well. Seek not | within the world to find your Self. Love is not found in darkness and |
| W1:127.8 | has promised this. And He Himself will place a spark of truth | within your mind wherever you give up a false belief, a dark illusion |
| W1:128.5 | its aspects and its phases and its dreams. We hold it purposeless | within our minds and loosen it from all we wish it were. Thus do we |
| W1:130.12 | will behold is hell indeed. Yet the release of Heaven still remains | within your range of choice to take the place of everything that hell |
| W1:131.1 | where there is none, for safety in the midst of danger, immortality | within the darkness of the dream of death. Who could succeed where |
| W1:132.4 | strikes it everywhere because you hold the bitter thought of death | within your mind. The world is nothing in itself. Your mind must give |
| W1:132.11 | because ideas leave not their source, and you maintain the world | within your mind in thought. |
| W1:133.10 | the ego's hidden goals. And though he tries to keep its halo clear | within his vision, yet must he perceive its tarnished edges and its |
| W1:133.11 | upon the tarnished as his own—the rust a sign of deep unworthiness | within himself. He who would still preserve the ego's goals and serve |
| W1:135.27 | in you, for now you come without defense to learn the part for you | within the plan of God. What little plans or magical beliefs can |
| W1:136.2 | truth from being whole. The parts are seen as if each one were whole | within itself. |
| W1:136.7 | parts are wrested from the whole and seen as separate and as wholes | within themselves, they become symbols standing for attack upon the |
| W1:137.8 | gentle hand is weakness overcome. And minds which were walled off | within a body free to join with other minds, to be forever strong. |
| W1:137.11 | give. What is opposed to God does not exist. And who accepts it not | within his mind becomes a haven where the weary can remain to rest. |
| W1:138.5 | it is known. But knowledge is beyond the goals we seek to teach | within the framework of this course. Ours are teaching goals to be |
| W1:151.5 | it does not believe. It is itself alone that it condemns. It is | within itself it sees the guilt. It is its own despair it sees in you. |
| W1:151.12 | beyond the body and the world, past every witness for unholiness, | within the Holy, holy as Itself. In everyone and everything, His |
| W1:152.6 | the afraid, the suffering and lonely, and the mind that lives | within a body that must die? You but accuse Him of insanity, to think |
| W1:153.2 | for there is treachery without and still a greater treachery | within. The mind is now confused and knows not where to turn to find |
| W1:153.10 | think how holy is your purpose, how secure you rest, untouchable | within its light. God's ministers have chosen that the truth be with |
| W1:154.1 | our worth, nor can we know what role is best for us; what we can do | within a larger plan we cannot see in its entirety. Our part is cast |
| W1:158.6 | of doubt and shadows made with the intangible. Here is a quiet place | within the world made holy by forgiveness and by love. Here are all |
| W1:159.6 | no sickness not already healed, no lack unsatisfied, no need unmet | within this golden treasury of Christ. |
| W1:162.1 | to the world you made. By them it disappears, and all things seen | within its misty clouds and vaporous illusions vanish as these words |
| W1:163.2 | thought of death seem mighty. For it seems to hold all living things | within its withered hand; all hopes and wishes in its blighting |
| W1:163.4 | as this? Here is the strength and might of God Himself perceived | within an idol made of dust. Here is the opposite of God proclaimed |
| W1:164.6 | to the world. Your vision, given you from far beyond all things | within the world, looks back on them in a new light. And what you see |
| W1:164.8 | Your trifling treasures put away and leave a clean and open space | within your mind where Christ can come and offer you the treasure of |
| W1:165.4 | comes to you. Ask to receive, and it is given you. Conviction lies | within it. Till you welcome it as yours, uncertainty remains. Yet God |
| W1:165.7 | certain. And the Thought of Him is never absent. Sureness must abide | within you who are host to Him. This course removes all doubts which |
| W1:167.6 | change what is its waking state. It cannot make a body nor abide | within a body. What is alien to the mind does not exist because it |
| W1:167.8 | changeless with the power to extend forever changelessly but yet | within Themselves, for They are everywhere. |
| W1:167.9 | not have, a foreign state it cannot enter, or a false condition not | within its Source, it merely seems to go to sleep a while. It dreams |
| W1:168.3 | Today we ask of God the gift He has most carefully preserved | within our hearts, waiting to be acknowledged. This the gift by which |
| W1:169.2 | Grace is acceptance of the Love of God | within a world of seeming hate and fear. By grace alone the hate and |
| W1:170.4 | the enemy without that you attack. Yet your defense sets up an enemy | within—an alien thought at war with you, depriving you of peace, |
| W1:181.3 | goals, and what we saw an instant previous has no concern for us | within this interval of time wherein we practice changing our intent. |
| W1:181.5 | time of practicing with one intent—to look upon the sinlessness | within. We recognize that we have lost this goal if anger blocks our |
| W1:182.5 | well. He will return. But give Him just a little time to be Himself | within the peace that is His home, resting in silence and in peace |
| W1:182.7 | patience has no limits. He will wait until you hear His gentle Voice | within you, calling you to let Him go in peace along with you to |
| W1:183.1 | for their identity. Your Father's Name reminds you who you are, even | within a world that does not know; even though you have not |
| W1:183.6 | as you sit with him in silence and repeat God's Name along with him | within your quiet minds, you have established there an altar which |
| W1:183.11 | is given you. No prayer but this is necessary, for it holds them all | within it. words are insignificant and all requests unneeded when |
| W1:184.11 | One Name, One Meaning, and a single Source Which unifies all things | within Itself. Use all the names the world bestows on them but for |
| W1:187.10 | give as we receive. The Name of God is on our lips. And as we look | within, we see the purity of Heaven shine in our reflection of our |
| W1:188.2 | the presence of what he beholds in him? It is not difficult to look | within, for there all vision starts. There is no sight, be it of |
| W1:188.5 | The peace of God can never be contained. Who recognizes it | within himself must give it. And the means for giving it are in his |
| W1:188.6 | Sit quietly and close your eyes. The light | within you is sufficient. It alone has power to give the gift of |
| W1:188.6 | you. Exclude the outer world and let your thoughts fly to the peace | within. They know the way. For honest thoughts, untainted by the |
| W1:188.7 | on them, but they must remain with you as well, for they were born | within your mind as yours was born in God's. They lead you back to |
| W1:188.8 | we share with God. We will not let them stray. We let the light | within our minds direct them to come home. We have betrayed them, |
| W1:189.1 | a reflection of the thought we practice now. To feel the Love of God | within you is to see the world anew, shining in innocence, alive with |
| W1:189.4 | them, the joy with which they look out from the endless wells of joy | within. What they have felt in them they look upon and see its sure |
| W1:189.5 | forget this law of seeing: you will look upon that which you feel | within. If hatred finds a place within your heart, you will perceive |
| W1:189.5 | will look upon that which you feel within. If hatred finds a place | within your heart, you will perceive a fearful world, held cruelly in |
| W1:189.5 | in death's sharp-pointed, bony fingers. If you feel the Love of God | within you, you look out upon a world of mercy and of love. |
| W1:189.9 | way. Through every opened door His love shines outward from its home | within and lightens up the world in innocence. |
| W1:191.2 | this to you. There is no sound that does not speak of frailty | within you and without, no breath you draw that does not seem to |
| W1:192.1 | one with God and with your Self. Yet what can such a function mean | within a world of envy, hatred, and attack? Therefore you have a |
| W1:194.8 | perception? Who entrusts himself to God has also placed the world | within the hands to which he has himself appealed for comfort and |
| W1:195.3 | to lie in death with you, as useless as yourself, as little left | within his grasping fingers as in yours. |
| W1:196.3 | will not believe you are a body to be crucified. And you will see | within today's idea the light of resurrection, looking past all |
| W1:196.8 | And God, Whom you had thought to banish, can be welcomed back | within the holy mind He never left. |
| W1:196.10 | attack could be directed outward and returned from outside to | within. It seemed to be an enemy outside you had to fear. And thus a |
| W1:196.11 | Now for an instant is a murderer perceived | within you, eager for your death, intent on plotting punishment for |
| W1:197.8 | the holy Son of God, for as you were created you contain all things | within your Self. And you are still as God created you. Nor can you |
| W1:199.6 | to enslave, it is a worthy servant of the freedom which the mind | within the Holy Spirit seeks. |
| W1:199.7 | freedom as your gift to those who still believe they are enslaved | within a body. Be you free, so that the Holy Spirit can make use of |
| W1:200.8 | everyone will cross to leave this world behind. But peace begins | within the world perceived as different and leading from this fresh |
| W1:200.8 | the way is easy, sloping gently toward the bridge where freedom lies | within the peace of God. |
| W1:207.1 | the world because I bless myself. God's blessing shines upon me from | within my heart where He abides. I need but turn to Him, and every |
| W1:208.1 | with me. And in that stillness, we will find the peace of God. It is | within my heart, which witnesses to God Himself. I am not a body. I |
| W1:209.1 | [189] I feel the Love of God | within me now. The Love of God is what created me. The Love of God is |
| W1:209.1 | I am. The Love of God proclaimed me as His Son. The Love of God | within me sets me free. I am not a body. I am free. For I am still as |
| W2:222.1 | God is with me. He is my Source of life, the life | within, the air I breathe, the food by which I am sustained, the |
| W2:223.1 | a separate entity which moved in isolation, unattached, and housed | within a body. Now I know my life is God's. I have no other home, and |
| W2:225.1 | I want it mine in full awareness, blazing in my mind, and keeping it | within its kindly light, inviolate—beloved, with fear behind and |

| W2:WIB.1 | as what his safety is. How else could he be certain he remains | within the body, keeping love outside? |
| W2:261.1 | I will behold myself where I perceive my strength and think I live | within the citadel where I am safe and cannot be attacked. Let me |
| W2:264.1 | beyond Your one creation or without the Love Which holds all things | within Itself. Father, Your Son is like Yourself. We come to You in |
| W2:264.1 | like Yourself. We come to You in Your own Name today, to be at peace | within Your everlasting Love. |
| W2:267.1 | Voice, sustained by Him in love, and held forever quiet and at peace | within His loving arms. Each heartbeat calls His Name, and every one |
| W2:WIC.1 | another and with God as well. He is the Thought Which still abides | within the Mind That is His Source. He has not left His holy home nor |
| W2:WIC.3 | Holy Spirit and at home in God alone, does Christ remain at peace | within the Heaven of your holy mind. This is the only part of you |
| W2:278.1 | If I accept that I am prisoner | within a body in a world in which all things that seem to live appear |
| W2:288.1 | mine. And I am saved because the past is gone. Let me not cherish it | within my heart or I will lose the way to walk to You. My brother is |

| W2:WISC.2 | Second Coming that permits it to embrace the world and hold you safe | within its gentle advent, which encompasses all living things with |
| W2:309.1 | Within me is eternal innocence because it is God's Will that it be | |
| W2:309.1 | in this. For to deny my Father's Will is to deny my own. To look | within is but to find my will as God created it and as it is. I fear |
| W2:309.1 | but to find my will as God created it and as it is. I fear to look | within because I think I made another will which is not true and made |
| W2:309.1 | will which is not true and made it real. Yet it has no effects. | Within me is the holiness of God. Within me is the memory of Him. |
| W2:309.1 | it real. Yet it has no effects. Within me is the holiness of God. | Within me is the memory of Him. |
| W2:313.1 | come to me that I may waken from the dream of guilt and look | within upon my sinlessness which You have kept completely undefiled |
| W2:WICR.3 | the whole. Its oneness is forever guaranteed inviolate, forever held | within His holy will beyond all possibility of harm, of separation, |
| W2:331.1 | You love me, Father. You could never leave me desolate, to die | within a world of pain and cruelty. How could I think that Love has |
| W2:332.1 | Forgiveness bids this presence enter in and take its rightful place | within the mind. Without forgiveness is the mind in chains, believing |
| W2:336.1 | truth. Its lilies shine into the mind and call it to return and look | within, to find what it has vainly sought without. For here and only |
| W2:336.2 | away my dreams of separation and of sin. Then let me, Father, look | within and find Your promise of my sinlessness is kept; Your Word |
| W2:336.2 | Your promise of my sinlessness is kept; Your Word remains unchanged | within my mind; Your love is still abiding in my heart. |
| W2:WIM.1 | perception nor exceed the function of forgiveness. Thus it stays | within time's limits. Yet it paves the way for the return of |
| W2:350.1 | us as we perceive ourselves. The Son of God incorporates all things | within himself as You created him. Your memory depends on his |
| W2:352.1 | to follow in this way. You have not left me comfortless. I have | within me both the memory of You and One Who leads me to it. Father, |
| W2:360.1 | created me, for the Great Rays remain forever still and undisturbed | within me. I would reach to them in silence and in certainty, for |

| Tx:5.11 | The | word “know” is proper in this context because the Holy Inspiration is |

| W1:23.3 | can well ask if this can be called seeing. Is not fantasy a better | word for such a process and hallucination a more appropriate term for |
| W1:106.4 | Today the promise of God's | Word is kept. Hear and be silent. He would speak to you. He comes |
| W1:106.5 | and all your brothers to be kept. Hear Him today, and listen to the | Word which lifts the veil which lies upon the earth and wakes all |
| W1:106.6 | Him your voice to speak to all the multitudes who wait to hear the | Word that He will speak today. Be ready for salvation. It is here and |
| W1:106.11 | thousand minds are opened to the truth. And they will hear the holy | Word you hear. And when the hour is past, you will again release a |
| W1:106.12 | Today the holy | Word of God is kept through your receiving it to give away, so you |
| W1:106.12 | not forget today to reinforce your choice to hear and to receive the | Word by this reminder, given to yourself as often as is possible |
| W1:110.5 | you free. This is the truth that God has promised you. This is the | Word in which all sorrow ends. |
| W1:110.8 | power to save whoever touches Him however lightly, asking for the | Word that tells him he is brother unto Him. |
| W1:110.13 | Let us declare this truth as often as we can. This is the | Word of God that sets you free. This is the key that opens up the |
| W1:114.3 | God's plan for salvation. What can my function be but to accept the | Word of God, Who has created me, for what I am and will forever be? |
| W1:123.4 | thanks that in our solitude a Friend has come to speak the saving | Word of God to us. |
| W1:123.5 | And thanks to you for listening to Him. His | Word is soundless if it be not heard. In thanking Him the thanks are |
| W1:125.1 | of stillness and of quiet listening. Your Father wills you hear His | Word today. He calls to you from deep within your mind where He |
| W1:125.1 | mind where He abides. Hear Him today. No peace is possible until His | Word is heard around the world; until your mind, in quiet listening, |
| W1:125.2 | is simply this: the Son of God is free to save himself, given the | Word of God to be his Guide, forever in his mind and at his side to |
| W1:125.3 | without our personal desires, and without all judgment of His holy | Word. We will not judge ourselves today, for what we are cannot be |
| W1:125.3 | Today we will not listen to the world, but wait in silence for the | Word of God. |
| W1:125.4 | Son of God, your Father speak. His Voice would give to you His holy | Word to spread across the world the tidings of salvation and the holy |
| W1:125.5 | He has not waited until you return your mind to Him to give His | Word to you. He has not hid Himself from you while you have wandered |
| W1:125.6 | Today He speaks to you. His Voice awaits your silence, for His | Word cannot be heard until your mind is quiet for a while and |
| W1:125.6 | for a while and meaningless desires have been stilled. Await His | Word in quiet. There is peace within you to be called upon today to |
| W1:125.7 | listening to the world and choose instead a gentle listening to the | Word of God. He speaks from nearer than your heart to you. His Voice |
| W1:125.8 | It is your voice to which you listen as He speaks to you. It is your | Word He speaks. It is the Word of freedom and of peace, of unity of |
| W1:125.8 | you listen as He speaks to you. It is your Word He speaks. It is the | Word of freedom and of peace, of unity of will and purpose, with no |
| W1:125.9 | from the body's eyes. Only be still and listen. You will hear the | Word in which the Will of God the Son joins in His Father's Will, at |
| W1:125.10 | you have a special purpose for this day—in quiet to receive the | Word of God. |
| W1:137.16 | give as you receive, to hold but what you give, and to receive the | Word of God to take the place of all the foolish thoughts that ever |
| W1:140.1 | Cure is a | word that cannot be applied to any remedy the world accepts as |
| W1:R4.10 | hurry now, for you are using time for its intended purpose. Let each | word shine with the meaning God has given it as it was given to you |
| W1:R4.12 | God offers thanks to you who practice thus the keeping of His | Word. And as you give your mind to the ideas for the day again before |
| W1:143.1 | [125] In quiet I receive God's | Word today. |
| W1:151.9 | And thus He judges you. Accept His | word of what you are, for He bears witness to your beautiful creation |
| W1:154.5 | carried, he is failing to perform his proper part as bringer of the | Word. |
| W1:154.10 | and for us, joining in One Voice the getting and the giving of God's | Word, the giving and receiving of His Will. |
| W1:162.2 | Here is the | Word by which the Son became His Father's happiness, His Love, and |
| W1:165.7 | ourselves to give us certainty. And in His Name we practice as His | Word directs we do. His sureness lies beyond our every doubt. His |
| W1:166.9 | self you thought was you may not be your identity. Perhaps God's | Word is truer than your own. Perhaps His gifts to you are real. |
| W1:168.6 | returning but the words He gave to us through His Own Voice, His | Word, His Love: |
| W1:169.4 | be and has determined it. And yet we urge you to bear witness to the | Word of God to hasten the experience of truth and speed its advent |
| W1:R5.2 | to us. We have no words to give to You. We would but listen to Your | Word and make it ours. Lead our practicing as does a father lead a |
| W1:R5.3 | we may walk more certainly and quickly unto You. And we accept the | Word You offer us to unify our practicing, as we review the thoughts |
| W1:183.7 | but once. And then God's Name becomes our only thought, our only | word, the only thing that occupies our minds, the only wish we have, |
| W1:184.10 | into the sunlight and forget the darkness. Here you understand the | Word, the Name Which God has given you; the One Identity Which all |
| W1:184.13 | meaning of the Name of God. Experience must come to supplement the | word. But first you must accept One Name for all reality, and realize |
| W1:188.7 | when you refuse to listen. And they urge you gently to accept His | Word for what you are instead of fantasies and shadows. They remind |
| W1:192.4 | and leaves the world a clean and unmarked slate on which the | Word of God can now replace the senseless symbols written there |
| W1:195.7 | last to us. An ancient door is swinging free again; a long forgotten | Word re-echoes in our memory and gathers clarity as we are willing |
| W1:198.6 | all will merge as one at last. And as this one will fade away, the | Word of God will come to take its place, for it will be remembered |
| W1:198.13 | the face of earth, made quiet in a dreamless sleep. And now the | Word of God alone remains upon it. Only that can be perceived an |
| W2:I.4 | Now do we come to Him with but His | Word upon our minds and hearts. And wait for Him to take the step to |
| W2:228.1 | I accept as true what He proclaims as false? Or shall I take His | Word for what I am since He is my Creator and the One Who knows the |
| W2:228.2 | are dreams. I let them go today. And I stand ready to receive Your | Word alone for what I really am. |
| W2:WS.1 | all the thoughts that have been born in time will end as well. God's | Word is given every mind which thinks that it has separate thoughts |
| W2:WS.3 | hid is now revealed—an altar to the holy Name of God whereon His | Word is written, with the gifts of your forgiveness laid before it |
| W2:234.2 | the loving help we have received, for Your eternal patience, and the | Word which You have given us that we are saved. |
| W2:245.2 | we come to hear the Voice of God, Who speaks to us as we relate His | Word, Whose Love we recognize because we share the Word that He has |
| W2:245.2 | as we relate His Word, Whose Love we recognize because we share the | Word that He has given unto us. |

| W2:256.2 | have no goal except to hear Your Voice and find the way Your sacred | Word has pointed out to us. |
| W2:276.1 | What is the | Word of God? “My Son is pure and holy as Myself.” And thus did God |
| W2:276.1 | the Father of the Son He loves, for thus was he created. This the | Word His Son did not create with Him because in this His Son was |
| W2:276.1 | we have come. And yet we need but to acknowledge Him Who gave His | Word to us in our creation, to remember Him and so recall our Self. |
| W2:276.2 | Father, Your | Word is mine. And it is this that I would speak to all my brothers, |
| W2:296.1 | today, that all the world may listen to Your Voice and hear Your | Word through me. I am resolved to let You speak through me, for I |
| W2:296.1 | damned it, I would set it free that I may find escape and hear the | Word Your holy Voice will speak to me today. |
| W2:WISC.1 | what is forever and forever true. It is the invitation to God's | Word to take illusion's place, the willingness to let forgiveness |
| W2:315.1 | smiles upon another, and my heart is gladdened. Someone speaks a | word of gratitude or mercy, and my mind perceives this gift and takes |
| W2:327.2 | Let me attempt therefore to try them and to judge them not. Your | word is one with You. You give the means whereby conviction comes, |
| W2:336.2 | look within and find Your promise of my sinlessness is kept; Your | Word remains unchanged within my mind; Your love is still abiding in |
| W2:WIM.3 | the world the silent miracle of love. And each is laid before the | Word of God upon the universal altar to Creator and creation, in the |
| W2:341.2 | Let us not then attack our sinlessness. For it contains the | Word of God to us, and in its kind reflection we are saved. |
| W2:WAI.5 | We are the holy messengers of God who speak for Him, and carrying His | Word to everyone whom He has sent to us, we learn that it is written |
| W2:355.1 | wait, my Father, for the joy You promised me? For You will keep Your | Word You gave Your Son in exile. I am sure my treasure waits for me, |
| W2:357.1 | brother, then in me. Your Voice instructs me patiently to hear Your | Word and give as I receive. And as I look upon Your Son today, I hear |
| W2:361.1 | And if I need a | word to help me, He will give it to me. If I need a thought, that |
| W2:E.3 | to Him in silence, asking for His sure direction and His certain | Word. His is the Word that God has given you. His is the Word you |

| M:5.9 | is not their hands that heal. It is not their voice that speaks the | Word of God. They merely give what has been given them. Very gently |
| M:11.1 | everyone must ask. Certainly peace seems to be impossible. Yet the | Word of God promises other things that seem impossible, as well as |
| M:11.1 | God promises other things that seem impossible, as well as this. His | Word has promised peace. It has also promised that there is no death, |

| M:11.1 | loves, and yet His Word assures us that He loves the world. God's | Word has promised us that peace is possible here, and what He |
| M:11.2 | of judgment. This time, ask yourself whether your judgment or the | Word of God is more likely to be true. For they say different things |
| M:11.2 | your judgment sees but death as the inevitable end of life. God's | Word assures you that He loves the world; your judgment says it is |

| M:13.7 | give up Heaven partially. You cannot be a little bit in hell. The | Word of God has no exceptions. It is this that makes it holy and |
| M:13.8 | it not, but learn this course and it is yours. God holds out His | Word to you, for He has need of teachers. What other way is there to |
| M:14.2 | Call God's teachers answer, turning to Him in silence to receive His | Word. The world will end when all things in it have been rightly |

| W1:97.12 | something else. The Holy Spirit gives you peace today. Receive His | words, and offer them to Him. |
| W1:98.7 | today give Him your tiny gift of but five minutes. He will give the | words you use in practicing today's idea the deep conviction and the |

| W1:98.11 | Give Him the | words, and He will do the rest. He will enable you to understand your |

| W1:154.15 | The world recedes as we light up our minds and realize these holy | words are true. They are the message sent to us today from our |
| W1:156.8 | cease. God speaks for you in answering your question with these | words: |
| W1:161.1 | disappear and offer room to love. Here is salvation in the simple | words in which we practice today's idea. Here is the answer to |
| W1:161.4 | Yet do these thoughts make clear the meaning of creation? Do these | words bring perfect clarity with them to you? What can they seem to |
| W1:162.1 | in learning. It will mean far more to you as you advance. These | words are sacred, for they are the words God gave in answer to the |
| W1:162.1 | more to you as you advance. These words are sacred, for they are the | words God gave in answer to the world you made. By them it |
| W1:162.1 | seen within its misty clouds and vaporous illusions vanish as these | words are spoken. For they come from God. |
| W1:162.2 | creation is proclaimed and honored as it is. There is no dream these | words will not dispel, no thought of sin, and no illusion that the |
| W1:162.3 | Holy indeed is he who makes these | words his own—arising with them in his mind, recalling them |
| W1:162.3 | he gives the world what he receives each time he practices the | words of truth. |
| W1:162.4 | Today we practice simply. For the | words we use are mighty, and they need no thoughts beyond themselves |
| W1:162.6 | with one like him in holiness? You are as God created you. These | words dispel the night, and darkness is no more. The light is come |
| W1:168.6 | because He loves His Son. To Him we pray today, returning but the | words He gave to us through His Own Voice, His Word, His Love: |
| W1:169.5 | We say “God is,” and then we cease to speak, for in that knowledge | words are meaningless. There are no lips to speak them and no part of |
| W1:169.9 | to do, for those in time can speak of things beyond and listen to | words which explain what is to come is past already. Yet what meaning |
| W1:169.9 | explain what is to come is past already. Yet what meaning can the | words convey to those who count the hours still and rise and work and |
| W1:R5.2 | be quiet and our holy minds be still, and speak to us. We have no | words to give to You. We would but listen to Your Word and make it |
| W1:R5.11 | then your gift to me. For this alone I need—that you will hear the | words I speak and give them to the world. You are my voice, my eyes, |
| W1:R5.14 | And with this thought we sleep, to waken once again with these same | words upon our lips to greet another day. No thought that we review |
| W1:R5.14 | thus when we have finished this review, we will have recognized the | words we speak are true. |
| W1:R5.15 | Yet are the | words but aids and to be used, except at the beginning and the end of |
| W1:R5.15 | and recognize that it is only here conviction lies. We use the | words, and try and try again to go beyond them to their meaning, |
| W1:I2.2 | goal. We are attempting now to lift these blocks, however briefly. | Words alone cannot convey the sense of liberation which their lifting |
| W1:I2.2 | see speaks for itself. Your motivation will be so intensified that | words become of little consequence. You will be sure of what you want |
| W1:I2.3 | And so we start our journey beyond | words by concentrating first on what impedes our progress still. |
| W1:182.2 | defensiveness and self-deception, would deny he understands the | words we speak? |
| W1:182.8 | stay with Him in perfect stillness, silent and at peace, beyond all | words, untouched by fear and doubt, sublimely certain that you are at |
| W1:183.7 | else. Let all your thoughts become anchored on this. No other | words we use except at the beginning, when we say today's idea but |
| W1:183.11 | No prayer but this is necessary, for it holds them all within it. | words are insignificant and all requests unneeded when God's Son |
| W1:183.12 | still relationship, in which communication far transcends all | words and yet exceeds in depth and height whatever words could |
| W1:183.12 | transcends all words and yet exceeds in depth and height whatever | words could possibly convey, is peace eternal. In our Father's Name, |
| W1:185.1 | To say these | words is nothing. But to mean these words is everything. If you could |
| W1:185.1 | To say these words is nothing. But to mean these | words is everything. If you could but mean them for just an instant, |
| W1:185.2 | No one can mean these | words and not be healed. He cannot play with dreams nor think he is |
| W1:185.2 | all he wants, and that is all he will receive. Many have said these | words. But few indeed have meant them. You have but to look upon the |
| W1:185.2 | The world would be completely changed should any two agree these | words express the only thing they want. |
| W1:185.5 | the peace of God is to renounce all dreams. For no one means these | words who wants illusions and who therefore seeks the means which |
| W1:185.7 | today devote our practicing to recognizing that we really mean the | words we say. We want the peace of God. This is no idle wish. These |
| W1:185.7 | words we say. We want the peace of God. This is no idle wish. These | words do not request another dream be given us. They do not ask for |
| W1:185.7 | one which can succeed where all the rest have failed. To mean these | words acknowledges illusions are in vain, requesting the eternal in |
| W1:185.8 | you cherish still. What do you ask for in your heart? Forget the | words you use in making your requests. Consider but what you believe |
| W1:186.5 | depends on you, be sure that it is so. The arrogant must cling to | words, afraid to go beyond them to experience which might affront |
| W1:193.9 | These are the | words the Holy Spirit speaks in all your tribulations, all your pain, |
| W1:193.9 | all your pain, all suffering regardless of its forms. These are the | words with which temptation ends and guilt, abandoned, is revered no |
| W1:193.9 | ends and guilt, abandoned, is revered no more. These are the | words which end the dream of sin and rid the mind of fear. These are |
| W1:193.9 | which end the dream of sin and rid the mind of fear. These are the | words by which salvation comes to all the world. |
| W1:193.10 | Shall we not learn to say these | words when we are tempted to believe that pain is real and death |
| W1:193.10 | becomes our choice instead of life? Shall we not learn to say these | words when we have understood their power to release all minds from |
| W1:193.10 | understood their power to release all minds from bondage? These are | words which give you power over all events which seem to have been |
| W1:193.10 | been given power over you. You see them rightly when you hold these | words in full awareness, and do not forget these words apply to |
| W1:193.10 | when you hold these words in full awareness, and do not forget these | words apply to everything you see or any brother looks upon amiss. |
| W1:193.20 | every care, and every form of suffering, repeat these selfsame | words. And then you hold the key that opens Heaven's gate and brings |
| W1:198.5 | the simple lessons He would teach, instead of trying to dismiss His | words and substitute your own in place of His? |
| W1:198.6 | His | words will work. His words will save. His words contain all hope, all |
| W1:198.6 | His words will work. His | words will save. His words contain all hope, all blessing and all joy |
| W1:198.6 | His words will work. His words will save. His | words contain all hope, all blessing and all joy that ever can be |

| W1:198.6 | and come to you with Heaven's love upon them. Those who hear His | words have heard the song of Heaven, for these are the words in which |
| W1:198.6 | who hear His words have heard the song of Heaven, for these are the | words in which all will merge as one at last. And as this one will |
| W1:198.9 | freedom come to make its home with you. The truth bestows these | words upon your mind that you may find the key to light and let the |
| W1:R6.6 | We will attempt to get beyond all | words and special forms of practicing for this review. For we attempt |
| W2:I.1 | Words will mean little now. We use them but as guides on which we do | |
| W2:I.3 | which conclude the year that we have given God. We say some simple | words of welcome and expect our Father to reveal Himself as He has |
| W2:I.4 | be accepted. So our times with Him will now be spent. We say the | words of invitation that His Voice suggests, and then we wait for Him |
| W2:I.10 | we need only call to God and all temptations disappear. Instead of | words, we need but feel His Love. Instead of prayer, we need but call |
| W2:I.11 | One further use for | words we still retain. From time to time, instructions on a theme of |
| W2:222.2 | Father, we have no | words except Your Name upon our lips and in our minds as we come |

| W2:254.2 | Today we let no ego thoughts direct our | words or actions. When such thoughts occur, we quietly step back and |
| W2:275.2 | whom to speak, and what to say to him, what thoughts to think, what | words to give the world. The safety that I bring is given me. Father, |
| W2:284.1 | elect to change all thoughts that hurt. And I would go beyond these | words today, go past all reservations, and arrive at full acceptance |
| W2:296.1 | me. I am resolved to let You speak through me, for I would use no | words but Yours and have no thoughts which are apart from Yours, for |
| W2:WAI.2 | Our use for | words is almost over now. Yet in the final days of this one year we |

| W2:WAI.2 | to speak of nor describe. Yet we can realize our function here, and | words can speak of this and teach it, too, if we exemplify the words |

| M:21.1 | you receive. But this refers to the prayer of the heart, not to the | words you use in praying. Sometimes the words and the prayer are |

| Tx:11.86 | at this world, and you will realize that this is so. For this | world is the symbol of punishment, and all the laws which seem to |
| Tx:11.87 | If this were the real | world, God would be cruel. For no father could subject his children |
| Tx:11.87 | salvation, and this is the ego's interpretation, not God's. Only the | world of guilt could demand this, for only the guilty could conceive |
| Tx:11.88 | This | world is a picture of the crucifixion of God's Son. And until you |
| Tx:11.88 | until you realize that God's Son cannot be crucified, this is the | world you will see. Yet you will not realize this until you accept |
| Tx:11.90 | In this strange | world which you have made, the Son of God has sinned. How could you |
| Tx:11.90 | sinned. How could you see him, then? By making him invisible, the | world of retribution rose in the black cloud of guilt which you |
| Tx:11.93 | in God's Mind. God's Son will always be as he was created. Deny your | world and judge him not, for his eternal guiltlessness is in the mind |
| Tx:12.13 | joyous response to the call of love if you heard it, and the whole | world you think you control would vanish. The Holy Spirit, then, |
| Tx:12.14 | in defiance and that attack is grandeur. You think you have made a | world which God would destroy; and by loving Him, which you do, you |
| Tx:12.14 | would destroy; and by loving Him, which you do, you would throw this | world away, which you would. Therefore, you have used the world to |
| Tx:12.14 | throw this world away, which you would. Therefore, you have used the | world to cover your love, and the deeper you go into the blackness of |
| Tx:12.23 | it is about you. You have been told that your function in this | world is healing, and your function in Heaven is creating. The ego |
| Tx:12.30 | for now is the closest approximation of eternity which this | world offers. It is in the reality of now, without past or future, |
| Tx:12.32 | of time as you interpret yours. If you accept your function in the | world of time as healing, you will emphasize only the aspect of time |
| Tx:12.33 | are not seen and sounds which are not heard. They make up a private | world which cannot be shared. For they are meaningful only to their |
| Tx:12.33 | only to their maker, and so they have no meaning at all. In this | world their maker moves alone, for only he perceives them. |
| Tx:12.34 | Each one peoples his | world with figures from his individual past, and it is because of |
| Tx:12.35 | strange and shadowy figures that the insane relate to their insane | world. For they see only those who remind them of these images, and |
| Tx:12.35 | other because they saw in them a shadow figure in their own private | world. And thus it is that you must attack yourself first, for what |
| Tx:12.37 | You have but two emotions, yet in your private | world you react to each of them as though it were the other. For love |
| Tx:12.37 | each of them as though it were the other. For love cannot abide in a | world apart, where when it comes it is not recognized. If you see |
| Tx:12.37 | you, and believing it is love, you call it to yourself. Your private | world is filled with the figures of fear you have invited into it, |
| Tx:12.37 | offer you, you do not see. As you look with open eyes upon your | world, it must occur to you that you have withdrawn into insanity. |
| Tx:12.39 | you to learn how to deny insanity and come forth from your private | world in peace. |
| Tx:12.41 | and you cannot see in darkness. Yet in the darkness in the private | world of sleep, you see in dreams, although your eyes are closed. And |
| Tx:12.41 | for by it you accept insanity, believing you can make a private | world and rule your own perceptions. Yet for this, light must be |
| Tx:12.42 | as His from love. And He sees for you as your witness to the real | world. He is the Holy Spirit's manifestation, looking always on the |
| Tx:12.42 | He is the Holy Spirit's manifestation, looking always on the real | world and calling forth its witnesses and drawing them unto you. For |
| Tx:12.44 | And with this vision of the truth in them came all the beauty of the | world to shine upon them. |
| Tx:12.55 | There is a light which this | world cannot give. Yet you can give it, as it was given you. And as |
| Tx:12.55 | given you. And as you give it, it shines forth to call you from the | world and follow it. For this light will attract you as nothing in |
| Tx:12.55 | and follow it. For this light will attract you as nothing in this | world can do. And you will lay aside the world and find another. This |
| Tx:12.55 | you as nothing in this world can do. And you will lay aside the | world and find another. This other world is bright with love, which |
| Tx:12.55 | do. And you will lay aside the world and find another. This other | world is bright with love, which you have given it. And here will |
| Tx:12.55 | Father and His Holy Son. Light is unlimited and spreads across this | world in quiet joy. All those you brought with you will shine on you, |
| Tx:12.57 | not alone. Even in sleep has Christ protected you, ensuring the real | world for you when you wake. In your name He has given for you and |
| Tx:12.58 | Sit quietly and look upon the | world you see, and tell yourself, |
| Tx:12.59 | The real | world is not like this. It has no buildings, and there are no streets |
| Tx:12.60 | The | world you see must be denied, for sight of it is costing you a |
| Tx:12.61 | You do not really want the | world you see, for it has disappointed you since time began. The |
| Tx:12.61 | tired and ready to return to dust even as you made it. This aching | world has not the power to touch the living world at all. You could |
| Tx:12.61 | you made it. This aching world has not the power to touch the living | world at all. You could not give it that, and so although you turn in |
| Tx:12.61 | you cannot find in it the road that leads away from it into another | world. |
| Tx:12.62 | Yet the real | world has the power to touch you even here because you love it. And |
| Tx:12.62 | the cries of pain that rise to it from every part of this strange | world you made but do not want. The only effort you need make to give |
| Tx:12.62 | you made but do not want. The only effort you need make to give this | world away in glad exchange for what you did not make is willingness |
| Tx:12.63 | You have been wrong about the | world because you have misjudged yourself. From such a twisted |
| Tx:12.63 | and waits for you to leave the past behind and enter into the | world He holds out to you in love. |
| Tx:12.64 | No one in this distracted | world but has seen some glimpses of the other world about him. Yet |
| Tx:12.64 | one in this distracted world but has seen some glimpses of the other | world about him. Yet while he still lays value on his own, he will |
| Tx:12.64 | he still lays value on his own, he will deny the vision of the other | world, maintaining that he loves what he loves not and following not |
| Tx:12.64 | the joyful journey home. You wait but for yourself. To give this sad | world over and exchange your errors for the peace of God is but your |
| Tx:12.65 | from pain as God Himself, Who watches over him in everything. The | world about him shines with love because God placed him in Himself |
| Tx:12.65 | on love, for it is all about him and within him. He must deny the | world of pain the instant he perceives the arms of love around him. |
| Tx:12.65 | point of safety, he looks quietly about him and recognizes that the | world is one with him. |
| Tx:12.66 | Son forever, and His Son returns his Father's love forever. The real | world is the way that leads you to remembrance of this one thing that |
| Tx:12.67 | In these lie your true perceptions, for the Holy Spirit corrects the | world of dreams, where all perception is. Knowledge needs no |
| Tx:12.67 | offer knowledge. Love waits on welcome, not on time, and the real | world is but your welcome of what always was. Therefore, the call of |
| Tx:12.68 | In Heaven this is so, for what could you need in eternity? In your | world you do need things because it is a world of scarcity in which |
| Tx:12.68 | need in eternity? In your world you do need things because it is a | world of scarcity in which you find yourself because you are lacking. |
| Tx:12.68 | because you are lacking. Yet can you find yourself in such a | world? Without the Holy Spirit, the answer would be no. Yet because |
| Tx:12.69 | For what you think you need will merely serve to tighten up your | world against the light and render you unwilling to question the |
| Tx:12.69 | the light and render you unwilling to question the value that this | world can really hold for you. |
| Tx:12.71 | through outer worlds. However holy his perception may become, no | world outside himself holds his inheritance. Within himself he has no |
| Tx:12.74 | lead you safely through all dangers to your peace of mind that this | world sets before you. Kneel not before the altars to sacrifice and |
| Tx:12.75 | is the only real need to be fulfilled in time. Salvation from the | world lies only here. My peace I give you. Take it of me in glad |
| Tx:12.75 | My peace I give you. Take it of me in glad exchange for all the | world has offered but to take away. And we will spread it like a veil |
| Tx:12.75 | across the world's sad face, in which we hide our brothers from the | world, and it from them. |
| Tx:13.1 | belongs to the sphere of knowledge and which therefore no one in the | world knows. It would indeed be impossible to be in the world with |
| Tx:13.1 | one in the world knows. It would indeed be impossible to be in the | world with this knowledge. For the mind that knows this unequivocally |
| Tx:13.5 | bringing healed and healing sight into the darkness and enabling the | world to see. For light must come into the darkened world to make |
| Tx:13.5 | and enabling the world to see. For light must come into the darkened | world to make Christ's vision possible even here. Help Him to give |
| Tx:13.9 | As miracles in this | world join you to your brothers, so do your creations establish your |
| Tx:13.10 | Yet in this | world, your perfection is unwitnessed. God knows it, but you do not, |
| Tx:13.13 | The | world can give you only what you gave it, for being nothing but your |
| Tx:13.17 | within you, you will not see the light. And by projecting it, the | world seems dark and shrouded in your guilt. You throw a dark veil |
| Tx:13.27 | The Son of God believes that he is lost in guilt, alone in a dark | world where pain is pressing everywhere upon him from without. When |
| Tx:13.37 | There is a sense of peace so deep that no dream in this | world has ever brought even a dim imagining of what it is. |
| Tx:13.38 | Nothing in this | world can give this peace, for nothing in this world is wholly |
| Tx:13.38 | Nothing in this world can give this peace, for nothing in this | world is wholly shared. Perfect perception can merely show you what |
| Tx:13.47 | Yes, you are blessed indeed. Yet in this | world, you do not know it. But you have the means for learning it and |
| Tx:13.49 | if it had been done unto you? Indirect proof of truth is needed in a | world made of denial and without direction. You will perceive the |
| Tx:13.49 | realize that to deny is the decision not to know. The logic of the | world must therefore lead to nothing, for its goal is nothing. |
| Tx:13.50 | is closed off and wholly separated from the truth. This is an insane | world, and do not underestimate the actual extent of its insanity. |
| Tx:13.51 | for the Source of their undoing is in him. There is nothing in the | world to teach him that the logic of the world is totally insane and |
| Tx:13.51 | There is nothing in the world to teach him that the logic of the | world is totally insane and leads to nothing. Yet in him who made |
| Tx:13.79 | you will feel guilty for this imagined crime, which no one in this | world or Heaven could possibly commit. God's Spirit teaches only that |
| Tx:14.2 | Father loves you, for there is no parallel in your experience of the | world to help you understand it. There is nothing on earth with which |
| Tx:14.5 | This is forever changeless. Accept, then, the immutable. Leave the | world of death behind, and return quietly to Heaven. There is nothing |
| Tx:14.8 | joined in the Atonement here, and nothing else can unite us in this | world. So will the world of separation slip away and full |
| Tx:14.8 | here, and nothing else can unite us in this world. So will the | world of separation slip away and full communication be restored |
| Tx:14.31 | clarity and brightness so intense you could not wish for all the | world not to accept what God would have you have. Behold your will, |
| Tx:14.42 | In this | world you can become a spotless mirror in which the Holiness of your |
| Tx:14.44 | that the reflection of God, shining in you, can bring to all the | world, you could not wait to make the mirror of your mind clean to |
| Tx:14.44 | your mind clean to receive the image of the holiness that heals the | world. The image of holiness which shines in your mind is not obscure |
| Tx:14.46 | lay all guilt aside. Reflect the peace of Heaven here and bring this | world to Heaven. For the reflection of truth draws everyone to truth, |
| Tx:14.47 | reality. You on earth have no conception of limitlessness, for the | world you seem to live in is a world of limits. In this world, it is |
| Tx:14.47 | conception of limitlessness, for the world you seem to live in is a | world of limits. In this world, it is not true that anything without |
| Tx:14.47 | for the world you seem to live in is a world of limits. In this | world, it is not true that anything without order of difficulty can |
| Tx:14.47 | and is motivated by a unique Teacher, Who brings the laws of another | world to this one. The miracle is the one thing you can do that |
| Tx:15.20 | and glittering brilliance, which will literally blind you to this | world by its own vision, you cannot supply. And here it is, all in |
| Tx:15.22 | this in place of magnitude, and you accepted it. Everything in this | world is little because it is a world made out of littleness in the |
| Tx:15.22 | you accepted it. Everything in this world is little because it is a | world made out of littleness in the strange belief that littleness |
| Tx:15.22 | littleness can content you. When you strive for anything in this | world with the belief that it will bring you peace, you are |
| Tx:15.25 | for it does require vigilance to protect your magnitude in this | world. To hold your magnitude in perfect awareness in a world of |
| Tx:15.25 | in this world. To hold your magnitude in perfect awareness in a | world of littleness is a task the little cannot undertake. Yet it is |
| Tx:15.27 | in perfect safety in your minds, untouched by every little gift the | world of littleness would offer you. But for this, you cannot side |
| Tx:15.29 | season (Christmas), which celebrates the birth of holiness into this | world, join with me, who decided for holiness for you. It is our task |
| Tx:15.29 | His Son's creations, but without leaving you. Far beyond your little | world but still in you, He extends forever. Yet He brings all his |
| Tx:15.31 | where holiness abides in perfect peace. My Kingdom is not of this | world because it is in you. And you are of your Father. Let us join |
| Tx:15.37 | you to fulfill your holy part in the plan that He has given to the | world for its release from littleness. God would have His host abide |
| Tx:15.60 | Herein lies peace, for here there is no conflict. In the | world of scarcity, love has no meaning, and peace is impossible. For |
| Tx:15.61 | laws of God prevail, and only they have meaning. The laws of this | world cease to hold any meaning at all. When the Son of God accepts |
| Tx:15.79 | a teaching assignment such as His, He must use everything in this | world for your release. He must side with every sign or token of your |
| Tx:15.92 | to delay the perfect union of the Father and the Son. For in this | world, the attraction of guilt does stand between them. Neither time |
| Tx:15.92 | them. This is the season when you would celebrate my birth into the | world. Yet you know not how to do it. Let the Holy Spirit teach you, |
| Tx:16.38 | and of His Son established forever. Seek not for this in the bleak | world of illusion, where nothing is certain, and where everything |
| Tx:16.45 | it is not natural at all seem to be the unnatural ones. For this | world is the opposite of Heaven, being made to be its opposite, and |
| Tx:16.61 | investment in seeing it would be withdrawn from it. You see the | world you value. |
| Tx:16.62 | On this side of the bridge, you see the | world of separate bodies seeking to join each other in separate |
| Tx:16.64 | hold on the distorted frame of reference which seemed to hold your | world together. This frame of reference is built around the special |
| Tx:17.8 | This loveliness is not a fantasy. It is the real | world, bright and clean and new with everything sparkling under the |
| Tx:17.8 | there are no fantasies to hide the truth. The bridge between that | world and this is so little and so easy to cross that you could not |
| Tx:17.8 | Yet this little bridge is the strongest thing that touches on this | world at all. This little step, so small it has escaped your notice, |
| Tx:17.9 | one but Him Who planned salvation could complete it thus. The real | world, in its loveliness, you learn to reach. Fantasies are all |
| Tx:17.10 | The stars will disappear in light, and the sun which opened up the | world to beauty will vanish. Perception will be meaningless when it |
| Tx:17.10 | made perception possible will occur. The perception of the real | world will be so short that you will barely have time to thank God |
| Tx:17.10 | God will take the last step swiftly when you have reached the real | world and have been made ready for Him. |
| Tx:17.11 | The real | world is attained simply by the complete forgiveness of the old, the |
| Tx:17.11 | world is attained simply by the complete forgiveness of the old, the | world you see without forgiveness. The Great Transformer of |
| Tx:17.11 | undertake with you the careful searching of the mind that made this | world and uncover to you the seeming reasons for your making it. In |
| Tx:17.12 | All this beauty will rise to bless your sight as you look upon the | world with forgiving eyes. For forgiveness literally transforms |
| Tx:17.12 | forgiveness literally transforms vision and lets you see the real | world reaching quietly and gently across chaos and removing all |
| Tx:17.12 | and a blade of grass a sign of God's perfection. From the forgiven | world, the Son of God is lifted easily into his home. And there he |
| Tx:17.13 | How much do you want salvation? It will give you the real | world, trembling with readiness to be given you. The eagerness of the |
| Tx:17.13 | to meet with your Redeemer and walk with him in trust out of this | world and into the real world of beauty and forgiveness. |
| Tx:17.13 | and walk with him in trust out of this world and into the real | world of beauty and forgiveness. |
| Tx:17.25 | value more. The spark of beauty or the veil of ugliness, the real | world or the world of guilt and fear, truth or illusion, freedom or |
| Tx:17.25 | The spark of beauty or the veil of ugliness, the real world or the | world of guilt and fear, truth or illusion, freedom or slavery—it |
| Tx:17.28 | In this | world it is impossible to create, yet it is possible to make happy. |
| Tx:17.29 | You have made very real relationships even in this | world which you do not recognize simply because you have raised their |
| Tx:17.43 | relationship is the expression of the holy instant in living in this | world. Like everything about salvation, the holy instant is a |
| Tx:17.44 | The holy relationship, a major step toward the perception of the real | world, is learned. It is the old unholy relationship transformed and |
| Tx:18.4 | to time, and life to death, was all you ever made. Your whole | world rests upon it. Everything you see reflects it, and every |
| Tx:18.5 | error. It was so vast and so completely incredible that from it a | world of total unreality had to emerge. What else could come of it? |
| Tx:18.6 | That was the first projection of error outward. The | world arose to hide it and became the screen on which it was |
| Tx:18.6 | only increase is conceivable. Do you really think it strange that a | world in which everything is backwards and upside-down arose from |
| Tx:18.6 | in quiet and take no part in all the mad projection by which this | world was made. Call it not sin but madness, for such it was, and so |
| Tx:18.7 | The truth will save you. It has not left you to go out into the mad | world and so depart from you. Inward is sanity; insanity is outside |
| Tx:18.9 | He has set the course inward to the truth you share. In the mad | world outside you, nothing can be shared but only substituted, and |
| Tx:18.12 | who heard? Return with me to Heaven, walking together out of this | world and through another to the loveliness and joy the other holds |
| Tx:18.13 | You have been called together to the most holy function that this | world contains. It is the only one which has no limits and reaches |
| Tx:18.14 | Does not a | world that seems quite real arise in dreams? Yet think what this |
| Tx:18.14 | a world that seems quite real arise in dreams? Yet think what this | world is. It is clearly not the world you saw before you slept. |
| Tx:18.14 | arise in dreams? Yet think what this world is. It is clearly not the | world you saw before you slept. Rather, it is a distortion of the |
| Tx:18.14 | world you saw before you slept. Rather, it is a distortion of the | world, planned solely around what you would have preferred. Here, you |
| Tx:18.15 | in them becomes apparent. Yet they are a way of looking at the | world and changing it to suit the ego better. They provide striking |
| Tx:18.16 | on substitution is laid upon you. For a time, it seems as if the | world were given you, to make it what you will. You do not realize |
| Tx:18.17 | For the dream of your ability to control reality by substituting a | world which you prefer is terrifying. Your attempts to blot out |
| Tx:18.18 | Dreams show you that you have the power to make a | world as you would have it be, and that because you want it, you see |
| Tx:18.18 | while you see it, you do not doubt that it is real. Yet here is a | world, clearly within your mind, that seems to be outside. You do not |
| Tx:18.19 | Your wish to make another | world that is not real remains with you. And what you seem to wake to |
| Tx:18.19 | you. And what you seem to wake to is but another form of this same | world you see in dreams. All your time is spent in dreaming. Your |
| Tx:18.22 | hold to close your eyes. It is not strange that dreams can make a | world that is unreal. The wish to make it is incredible. Your |
| Tx:18.23 | In your relationship, the Holy Spirit has gently laid the real | world—the world of happy dreams from which awaking is so easy and |
| Tx:18.23 | relationship, the Holy Spirit has gently laid the real world—the | world of happy dreams from which awaking is so easy and so natural. |
| Tx:18.23 | waking dreams represent the same wishes in your mind, so do the real | world and the truth of Heaven join in the Will of God. The dream of |
| Tx:18.75 | Such is the strange position in which those in a | world inhabited by bodies seem to be. Each body seems to house a |
| Tx:18.86 | little and limited and so fragmented they are meaningless. From the | world of bodies, made by insanity, insane messages seem to be |
| Tx:18.86 | to the mind which made it. And these messages bear witness to this | world, pronouncing it as true. For you sent forth these messengers to |
| Tx:18.88 | the body sees and seems to be the whole foundation on which the | world is based. Here are all the illusions, all the twisted thoughts, |
| Tx:18.88 | and betrayal that were made to keep the guilt in place, so that the | world could rise from it and keep it hidden. Its shadow rises to the |
| Tx:18.91 | Yet in this cloud bank, it is easy to see a whole | world rising. A solid mountain range, a lake, a city, all rise in |
| Tx:18.91 | how much imagination you bring to it, you do not confuse it with the | world below, nor seek to make it real. |
| Tx:18.92 | nature as He leads you past them, for beneath them is a | world of light whereon they cast no shadows. Their shadows lie upon |
| Tx:18.92 | of light whereon they cast no shadows. Their shadows lie upon the | world beyond them, still further from the light. Yet from them to the |
| Tx:18.93 | This | world of light, this circle of brightness, is the real world where |
| Tx:18.93 | This world of light, this circle of brightness, is the real | world where guilt meets with forgiveness. Here the world outside is |
| Tx:18.93 | is the real world where guilt meets with forgiveness. Here the | world outside is seen anew, without the shadow of guilt upon it. Here |
| Tx:18.95 | beyond words. We need remember only that whoever attains the real | world, beyond which learning cannot go, will go beyond it but in a |
| Tx:18.97 | Your relationship has been uprooted from the | world of shadows, and its unholy purpose has been safely brought |
| Tx:18.97 | washed with forgiveness, and set shining and firmly rooted in the | world of light. From there, it calls to you to follow the course it |
| Tx:18.98 | Forgiveness removes only the untrue, lifting the shadows from the | world and carrying it safe and sure within its gentleness to the |
| Tx:18.98 | and carrying it safe and sure within its gentleness to the bright | world of new and clean perception. There is your purpose now. And it |
| Tx:19.12 | to you. Faith is as easily exchanged for knowledge as is the real | world. For faith arises from the Holy Spirit's perception and is the |
| Tx:19.22 | It can indeed be said the ego made its | world on sin. Only in such a world could everything be upside-down. |
| Tx:19.22 | It can indeed be said the ego made its world on sin. Only in such a | world could everything be upside-down. This is the strange illusion |
| Tx:19.22 | changed creation from an idea of God to an ideal the ego wants; a | world it rules, made up of bodies, mindless and capable of complete |
| Tx:19.32 | For the belief that bodies limit mind leads to a perception of the | world in which the proof of separation seems to be everywhere. And |
| Tx:19.37 | from elsewhere—from your brothers and from various aspects of the | world outside. Yet peace will gently cover them, extending past |
| Tx:19.43 | of peace! For peace will send its messengers from you to all the | world. And barriers will fall away before their coming as easily as |
| Tx:19.44 | To overcome the | world is no more difficult than to surmount your little wall. For in |
| Tx:19.46 | in and push Him out must produce conflict. As you look upon the | world, this little wish, uprooted and floating aimlessly, can land |
| Tx:19.47 | the belief in sin, is all that remains of what once seemed to be the | world. It is no longer an unrelenting barrier to peace. Its pointless |
| Tx:19.51 | is meaningless to fear and quite invisible. Relationships in this | world are the result of how the world is seen. And this depends on |
| Tx:19.51 | invisible. Relationships in this world are the result of how the | world is seen. And this depends on which emotion was called on to |
| Tx:19.52 | Send not these savage messengers into the | world to feast upon it and to prey upon reality. For they will bring |
| Tx:19.53 | you salvation. Theirs are the messages of safety, for they see the | world as kind. |
| Tx:19.54 | you, wanting no messages but theirs, you will see fear no more. The | world will be transformed before your sight, cleansed of all guilt |
| Tx:19.54 | sight, cleansed of all guilt and softly brushed with beauty. The | world contains no fear which you laid not upon it. And none you |
| Tx:19.64 | gates are opened from within to let peace through to bless the tired | world! Can it be difficult for us to walk past barriers together when |
| Tx:19.65 | are guilty, so must I be. But if I surmounted guilt and overcame the | world, you were with me. Would you see in me the symbol of guilt or |
| Tx:19.66 | gratitude for giving peace its home in Heaven. Send forth to all the | world the joyous message of the end of guilt, and all the world will |
| Tx:19.66 | to all the world the joyous message of the end of guilt, and all the | world will answer. Think of your happiness as everyone offers you |
| Tx:19.67 | be the focus of the new perception that will bring light to all the | world, contained in you. |
| Tx:19.85 | Under the dusty edge of its distorted | world, the ego would lay the Son of God, slain by its orders, proof |
| Tx:19.90 | and the Son of God entirely restored to sanity. For here your | world does end. |
| Tx:19.96 | It seems to you the | world will utterly abandon you if you but raise your eyes. Yet all |
| Tx:19.96 | but raise your eyes. Yet all that will occur is you will leave the | world forever. This is the reestablishment of your will. Look upon it |
| Tx:19.110 | protection of his Father. Here is the only purpose that gives this | world and the long journey through this world whatever meaning lies |
| Tx:19.110 | only purpose that gives this world and the long journey through this | world whatever meaning lies in them. Beyond this they are |
| Tx:20.18 | question, and it was what they saw that answered them. You make the | world and then adjust to it, and it to you. Nor is there any |
| Tx:20.19 | yet remains and needs an answer. Do you like what you have made—a | world of murder and attack through which you thread your timid way |
| Tx:20.19 | but the fearful thoughts of those who would adjust themselves to a | world made fearful by their adjustments. And they look out in sorrow |
| Tx:20.20 | Have you not wondered what the | world is really like; how it would look through happy eyes? The world |
| Tx:20.20 | the world is really like; how it would look through happy eyes? The | world you see is but a judgment on yourself. It is not there at all. |
| Tx:20.20 | lays a sentence on it, justifies it, and makes it real. Such is the | world you see—a judgment on yourself and made by you. This sickly |
| Tx:20.20 | whose image it is and which it loves, and placed outside you in the | world. And to this world must you adjust, as long as you believe this |
| Tx:20.20 | and which it loves, and placed outside you in the world. And to this | world must you adjust, as long as you believe this picture is outside |
| Tx:20.20 | you believe this picture is outside and has you at its mercy. This | world is merciless, and were it outside you, you should indeed be |
| Tx:20.21 | Who in a holy relationship can long remain unholy? The | world the holy see is one with them, just as the world the ego looks |
| Tx:20.21 | remain unholy? The world the holy see is one with them, just as the | world the ego looks upon is like itself. The world the holy see is |
| Tx:20.21 | with them, just as the world the ego looks upon is like itself. The | world the holy see is beautiful because they see their innocence in |
| Tx:20.21 | watches over all perception answered. Take not the judgment of the | world as answer to the question, “What am I?” |
| Tx:20.22 | The | world believes in sin, but the belief that made it as you see it is |
| Tx:20.24 | you believe the answer and adjust to it as if it were the truth? The | world you look on is the answer that it gave you, and you have given |
| Tx:20.24 | answer that it gave you, and you have given it power to adjust the | world to make its answer true. You asked this puff of madness for the |
| Tx:20.28 | give it the power to do so. For you give power as the laws of this | world interpret giving—as you give, you lose. It is not up to you |
| Tx:20.28 | power to sin, and therefore it has none; nor to its results as this | world sees them—sickness and death and misery and pain. These |
| Tx:20.32 | function here is to release him and so to free himself. In the | world of separation, each is appointed separately, though they are |
| Tx:20.33 | The ark of peace is entered two by two, yet the beginning of another | world goes with them. Each holy relationship must enter here to learn |
| Tx:20.33 | that it shares His purpose. And as this purpose is fulfilled, a new | world rises in which sin can enter not, and where the Son of God can |
| Tx:20.34 | of each other serves but you two alone. For the whole new | world rests in the hands of every two who enter here to rest. And as |
| Tx:20.37 | In this | world, God's Son comes closest to himself in a holy relationship. |
| Tx:20.73 | within the kindly sway of Heaven's laws. What if you recognized this | world is an hallucination? What if you really understood you made it |
| Tx:20.74 | them, but always, do you want the purpose which they serve? This | world seems to hold out many purposes, each different and with |
| Tx:20.75 | to meet the goal of madness. They are the means by which the outside | world, projected from within, adjusts to sin and seems to witness to |
| Tx:20.76 | to find itself and then looks out. All meaning that you give the | world outside must thus reflect the sight you saw within; or better, |
| Tx:21.1 | Projection makes perception. The | world you see is what you gave it, nothing more than that. But though |
| Tx:21.1 | man thinketh, so does he perceive. Therefore, seek not to change the | world, but will to change your mind about the world. Perception is a |
| Tx:21.1 | seek not to change the world, but will to change your mind about the | world. Perception is a result, not a cause. And that is why order of |
| Tx:21.2 | is your judgment on yourself, and this you will project upon the | world. See it as damned, and all you see is what you did to hurt the |
| Tx:21.2 | you made and learn from this to recognize which one you chose. [The | world you see but shows you how much joy you have allowed yourself to |
| Tx:21.3 | Never forget the | world the sightless “see” must be imagined, for what it really looks |
| Tx:21.4 | what could be seen instead. It is not necessary to imagine what the | world must look like. It must be seen before you recognize it for |
| Tx:21.6 | The blind become accustomed to their | world by their adjustments to it. They think they know their way |
| Tx:21.6 | keep them blind. This they do not believe. And so they keep the | world they learned to “see” in their imagination, believing that |
| Tx:21.6 | believing that their choice is that or nothing. They hate the | world they learned through pain. And everything they think is in it |
| Tx:21.9 | You could remember, yet you are afraid, believing you would lose the | world you learned since then. And yet you know that nothing in the |
| Tx:21.9 | world you learned since then. And yet you know that nothing in the | world you learned is half so dear as this. Listen and see if you |
| Tx:21.18 | not, then, this little offering. Withhold it, and you keep the | world as now you see it. Give it away, and everything you see goes |
| Tx:21.18 | holy instant is this exchange effected and maintained. Here is the | world you do not want brought to the one you do. And here the one you |
| Tx:21.18 | its weakness. You must perceive that what is strong enough to make a | world can let it go and can accept correction if it is willing to see |
| Tx:21.19 | The | world you see is but the idle witness that you were right. This |
| Tx:21.24 | goal of madness. The goal of sin induces the perception of a fearful | world to justify its purpose. What you desire you will see. And if |
| Tx:21.26 | It is as needful that you recognize you made the | world you see as that you recognize that you did not create yourself. |
| Tx:21.26 | Creator and believing that you made yourself. For if you think the | world you made has power to make you what it wills, you are confusing |
| Tx:21.27 | cannot serve to justify the madness. Your brother thinks he made the | world with you. Thus he denies creation. With you, he thinks the |
| Tx:21.27 | the world with you. Thus he denies creation. With you, he thinks the | world he made, made him. Thus he denies he made it. |
| Tx:21.32 | is reached. Through them the Holy Spirit leads you to the real | world and away from all illusions where your faith was laid. This is |
| Tx:21.36 | how much their faith had limited their understanding of the | world, desiring to place its power elsewhere should another point of |
| Tx:21.37 | faith you give each other can accomplish this. For He Who loves the | world is seeing it for you without one spot of sin upon it and in the |
| Tx:21.47 | strength. The song of freedom, which sings the praises of another | world, brings to it hope of peace. For it remembers Heaven, and now |
| Tx:21.49 | Perception selects and makes the | world you see. It literally picks it out as the mind directs. The |
| Tx:21.50 | own control and far more powerful than you. And you will think the | world you made directs your destiny. For this will be your faith. But |
| Tx:21.60 | other innocent. Who looks upon himself as guilty and sees a sinless | world? And who can see a sinful world and look upon himself apart |
| Tx:21.60 | himself as guilty and sees a sinless world? And who can see a sinful | world and look upon himself apart from it? Sin would maintain you |
| Tx:21.73 | It has no weapons, and it has no enemy. Yes, it can overrun the | world and seek an enemy. But it can never find what is not there. |
| Tx:21.74 | is not there to find. Yet first he must be willing to perceive a | world where it is not. It is not necessary that he understand how he |
| Tx:21.75 | Do I desire a | world I rule instead of one which rules me? Do I desire a world where |
| Tx:21.75 | I desire a world I rule instead of one which rules me? Do I desire a | world where I am powerful instead of helpless? Do I desire a world in |
| Tx:21.75 | a world where I am powerful instead of helpless? Do I desire a | world in which I have no enemies and cannot sin? And do I want to see |
| Tx:21.80 | but not to why. You have control of this. And if you choose to see a | world without an enemy in which you are not helpless, the means to |
| Tx:21.81 | implies a state where vacillations are impossible. You can desire a | world you rule which rules you not, and change your mind. You can |
| Tx:21.81 | little glint of sin attracts you. And you can want to see a sinless | world and let an “enemy” tempt you to use the body's eyes and change |
| Tx:21.82 | are the same. For each one asks if you are willing to exchange the | world of sin for what the Holy Spirit sees, since it is this the |
| Tx:21.82 | the world of sin for what the Holy Spirit sees, since it is this the | world of sin denies. And therefore those who look on sin are seeing |
| Tx:21.82 | therefore those who look on sin are seeing the denial of the real | world. Yet the last question adds the wish for constancy in your |
| Tx:21.82 | question adds the wish for constancy in your desire to see the real | world, so the desire becomes the only one you have. By answering the |
| Tx:22.2 | nothing left to steal and then move on. And so they wander through a | world of strangers unlike themselves, living with their bodies |
| Tx:22.2 | a common roof that shelters neither—in the same room and yet a | world apart. |
| Tx:22.6 | describe, you think is you. Reason would tell you that the | world you see through eyes which are not yours must make no sense to |
| Tx:22.6 | whose sight is wholly independent of the eyes which look upon the | world. If this is not your vision, what can it show to you? The brain |
| Tx:22.7 | called upon this thing to lead you, asking it to explain to you the | world it sees, you have no reason not to listen nor to suspect that |
| Tx:22.7 | understand it. God has no secrets. He does not lead you through a | world of misery, waiting to tell you at the journey's end why He did |
| Tx:22.8 | dependent on the self you think you made to lead you through the | world it made for you. |
| Tx:22.17 | how could joy be found in misery? All that is possible in the dark | world of misery is to select some aspects out of it, see them as |
| Tx:22.23 | time you can command. You are no more a slave to time than to the | world you made. |
| Tx:22.27 | has been reborn to light His home with vision that overlooks the | world. Would you not have this holy home be yours as well? No misery |
| Tx:22.32 | For here is its own stability, its heavy anchor in the shifting | world it made—the rock on which its church is built and where its |
| Tx:22.40 | of Christ will light your faces and shine from them into a darkened | world that needs the light. And from this holy place He will return |
| Tx:22.42 | everything that seems to rise between you. So shall you walk the | world with me, whose message has not yet been given to everyone. For |
| Tx:22.43 | be lifted from their minds are this world's saviors, walking the | world with their Redeemer and carrying His message of hope and |
| Tx:22.58 | the attacker who he thought was there. Through this releasing is the | world released. This is your part in bringing peace. For you have |
| Tx:22.59 | for everyone. Each little gift you offer to the other lights up the | world. Be not concerned with darkness; look away from it and toward |
| Tx:22.60 | On your learning depends the welfare of the | world. And it is only arrogance that would deny the power of your |
| Tx:23.4 | There can be no attraction of guilt in innocence. Think what a happy | world you walk with truth beside you! Do not give up this world of |
| Tx:23.4 | a happy world you walk with truth beside you! Do not give up this | world of freedom for a little sigh of seeming sin nor for a tiny |
| Tx:23.5 | little and the weak about him? Who can walk trembling in a fearful | world and realize that Heaven's glory shines on him? |
| Tx:23.6 | to understand all that is given you. In kind forgiveness will the | world sparkle and shine and everything you once thought sinful now |
| Tx:23.6 | How beautiful it is to walk clean and redeemed and happy through a | world in bitter need of the redemption that your innocence bestows |
| Tx:23.14 | nothing cannot win reality through battle. Why would you fill your | world with conflicts with yourself? Let all this madness be undone |
| Tx:23.19 | meaningless and to attack the truth. Here are the laws that rule the | world you made. And yet they govern nothing and need not be broken; |
| Tx:23.28 | of the enemy, they would respond with only kindness. But in a savage | world, the kind cannot survive, so they must take or else be taken |
| Tx:23.31 | believe you walk in sanity, with feet on solid ground and through a | world where meaning can be found, consider this: [These are the laws |
| Tx:24.6 | On its behalf they fight against the universe, for nothing in the | world they value more. |
| Tx:24.17 | own creations, as like to him as he is to his Father. And all the | world he made and all his specialness and all the sins he held in its |
| Tx:24.28 | suits you not, or an event that you did not anticipate upsets your | world and hurls it into chaos. Truth is not frail. Illusions leave it |
| Tx:24.32 | The special ones are all asleep, surrounded by a | world of loveliness they do not see. Freedom and peace and joy stand |
| Tx:24.34 | is now redemption, and salvation can only mean destruction of the | world, except yourself. |
| Tx:24.39 | you remain beyond salvation. Only this is certain in this shifting | world which has no meaning in reality: when peace is not with you |
| Tx:24.49 | Before your brother's holiness the | world is still and peace descends on it in gentleness and blessing so |
| Tx:24.51 | and look upon yourself as lovingly as He conceived of you before the | world began and as He knows you still. God changes not His Mind about |
| Tx:24.51 | brother is as He created him. And it is this that saves you from a | world that He created not. |
| Tx:24.52 | Forget not that the healing of God's Son is all the | world is for. That is the only purpose the Holy Spirit sees in it and |
| Tx:24.52 | see the healing of the Son as all you wish to be accomplished by the | world, by time, and all appearances, you will not know the Father nor |
| Tx:24.52 | you will not know the Father nor yourself. For you will use the | world for what is not its purpose and will not escape its laws of |
| Tx:24.53 | behold in him the whole reversal of the laws that seem to rule this | world. See in his freedom yours, for such it is. Let not his |
| Tx:24.62 | How bitterly does everyone tied to this | world defend the specialness he wants to be the truth! His wish is |
| Tx:25.6 | Perception is a choice of what you want yourself to be—the | world you want to live in and the state in which you think your mind |
| Tx:25.8 | the Christ, to make the oneness clear to what is really one. In this | world, this is not understood but can be taught. |
| Tx:25.12 | Perhaps you fancy to attain some peace and satisfaction in the | world as you perceive it. Yet it must be evident the outcome does not |
| Tx:25.13 | that you should cherish still some hope of satisfaction from the | world you see? In no respect at any time or place has anything but |
| Tx:25.14 | seen, that hopefulness is warranted on grounds that are not in this | world? And yet your hope that they may still be here prevents you |
| Tx:25.23 | extent to which you value guilt, to that extent will you perceive a | world in which attack is justified. To the extent to which you |
| Tx:25.23 | up and offer it support. This is perception's form adapted to this | world of God's more basic law that love creates itself and nothing |
| Tx:25.24 | God's laws do not obtain directly to a | world perception rules, for such a world could not have been created |
| Tx:25.24 | laws do not obtain directly to a world perception rules, for such a | world could not have been created by the Mind to which perception has |
| Tx:25.24 | has no meaning. Yet are His laws reflected everywhere. Not that the | world where this reflection is, is real at all. Only because His Son |
| Tx:25.25 | Knowledge has but one law because it has but one Creator. But this | world has two who made it, and they do not see it as the same. To |
| Tx:25.26 | There is another Maker of the | world, the simultaneous Corrector of the mad belief that anything |
| Tx:25.26 | still His Son, even in error. There is another purpose in the | world that error made because it has another Maker Who can reconcile |
| Tx:25.26 | its goal with His Creator's purpose. In His perception of the | world, nothing is seen but justifies forgiveness and the sight of |
| Tx:25.27 | where they could never be, and you agree, then must the Maker of the | world correct your error, lest you remain in darkness where the lamps |
| Tx:25.28 | for you to see the workings of the Helper given you to see the | world He made, instead of yours. |
| Tx:25.29 | that brings release from the belief there are two ways to see. This | world has much to offer to your peace and many chances to extend your |
| Tx:25.30 | The Maker of the | world of gentleness has perfect power to offset the world of violence |
| Tx:25.30 | The Maker of the world of gentleness has perfect power to offset the | world of violence and hate that seems to stand between you and His |
| Tx:25.31 | your choice. But recognize that in this choice the purpose of the | world you see is chosen and will be justified. |
| Tx:25.34 | You makers of a | world that is not so, take rest and comfort in another world where |
| Tx:25.34 | makers of a world that is not so, take rest and comfort in another | world where peace abides. This world you bring with you to all the |
| Tx:25.34 | so, take rest and comfort in another world where peace abides. This | world you bring with you to all the weary eyes and tired hearts that |

| Tx:25.34 | them and covers them in gentleness and light. And in this widening | world of light, the darkness they thought was there is pushed away |
| Tx:25.35 | Those who offer peace to everyone have found a home in Heaven the | world cannot destroy. For it is large enough to hold the world within |
| Tx:25.35 | Heaven the world cannot destroy. For it is large enough to hold the | world within its peace. |
| Tx:25.36 | nor nearer. Nothing else. In any form. This can you bring to all the | world and all the thoughts that entered it and were mistaken for a |

| Tx:25.43 | on speaks of Him to the beholder. He can see no evil, nothing in the | world to fear, and no one who is different from himself. And as he |
| Tx:25.45 | be lonely, for the lonely ones are those who see no function in the | world for them to fill, no place where they are needed, and no aim |
| Tx:25.46 | fulfills the part assigned to him to make himself complete within a | world where incompletion rules. |
| Tx:25.47 | But when it rests on all, it is complete and every function of this | world completed with it. Then is time no more. |
| Tx:25.48 | to save instead of lose. Salvation is no more than a reminder this | world is not your home; its laws are not imposed on you; its values |
| Tx:25.50 | a blessing, then it cannot be a sin. Sin is the one thing in all the | world that cannot change. It is immutable. And on its changelessness |
| Tx:25.50 | that cannot change. It is immutable. And on its changelessness the | world depends. The magic of the world can seem to hide the pain of |
| Tx:25.50 | And on its changelessness the world depends. The magic of the | world can seem to hide the pain of sin from sinners and deceive with |
| Tx:25.50 | as love, dependable as Heaven, and as strong as God Himself. The | world is safe from love to everyone who thinks sin possible. Nor will |
| Tx:25.51 | is just as strong as is God's Will for life. Nor can the basis of a | world He did not make be firm and sure as Heaven. How could it be |
| Tx:25.52 | it more carefully. It must be so that either God is mad or is this | world a place of madness. Not one Thought of His makes any sense at |
| Tx:25.52 | madness. Not one Thought of His makes any sense at all within this | world. And nothing that the world believes as true has any meaning in |
| Tx:25.52 | His makes any sense at all within this world. And nothing that the | world believes as true has any meaning in His Mind at all. What makes |
| Tx:25.52 | And if but one Thought of His is true, then all beliefs the | world gives any meaning to are false and make no sense at all. This |
| Tx:25.53 | To justify one value that the | world upholds is to deny your Father's sanity and yours. For God and |
| Tx:25.53 | not that this belief depends upon the form it takes. Who thinks the | world is sane in any way, is justified in anything it thinks, or is |
| Tx:25.53 | Sin is not real because the Father and the Son are not insane. This | world is meaningless because it rests on sin. Who could create the |
| Tx:25.54 | The Holy Spirit has the power to change the whole foundation of the | world you see to something else—a basis not insane on which a sane |
| Tx:25.54 | a basis not insane on which a sane perception can be based, another | world perceived. And one in which nothing is contradicted that would |
| Tx:25.55 | the other as insane and meaningless. Love is the basis for a | world perceived as wholly mad to sinners who believe theirs is the |
| Tx:25.55 | look beyond the madness and rest peacefully on truth. Each sees a | world immutable, as each defines the changeless and eternal truth of |
| Tx:25.57 | He is not mad has God appointed One as sane as He to raise a saner | world to meet the sight of everyone who chose insanity as his |
| Tx:25.57 | choice of form most suitable to him; one which will not attack the | world he sees, but enter into it in quietness and show him he is mad. |
| Tx:25.57 | way of looking at what he has seen before and recognizes as the | world in which he lives and thought he understood before. |
| Tx:25.58 | this position does his sinfulness and all the sin he sees within the | world offer him less and less— until he comes to understand it cost |
| Tx:25.60 | but reflects the underlying tenet God must be insane. For in this | world, it seems that one must gain because another lost. If this were |
| Tx:25.65 | There is a kind of justice in salvation of which the | world knows nothing. To the world, justice and vengeance are the |
| Tx:25.65 | of justice in salvation of which the world knows nothing. To the | world, justice and vengeance are the same, for sinners see justice |
| Tx:25.68 | over them when they are told that they have never sinned. Their | world depends on sin's stability. And they perceive the “threat” of |
| Tx:25.68 | knows as justice to be more destructive to themselves and to their | world than vengeance, which they understand and love. |
| Tx:25.75 | that this is true. Nor need you look to your experience within the | world, which is but shadows of all that is really happening within |
| Tx:25.77 | prevail for you. And you are safe from vengeance in all forms. The | world deceives, but it cannot replace God's justice with a version of |
| Tx:25.78 | For if you answer “yes,” it means you will forgo all values of this | world in favor of the peace of Heaven. Not one sin would you retain. |
| Tx:25.81 | a loss could justify attack, and loss of any kind He cannot see. The | world solves problems in another way. It sees a resolution as a state |
| Tx:26.1 | wish to see a little part of him and sacrifice the rest. Look at the | world, and you will see nothing attached to anything beyond itself. |
| Tx:26.2 | The | world you see is based on “sacrifice” of oneness. It is a picture of |
| Tx:26.4 | anyone. What witness to the wholeness of God's Son is seen within a | world of separate bodies, however much he witnesses to truth? He is |
| Tx:26.4 | however much he witnesses to truth? He is invisible in such a | world. Nor can his song of union and of love be heard at all. Yet is |
| Tx:26.4 | union and of love be heard at all. Yet is it given him to make the | world recede before his song and sight of him replace the body's eyes. |
| Tx:26.5 | of to illusion merely ask that they might see a purpose in the | world that gives it sense and makes it meaningful. Without your |
| Tx:26.5 | and makes it meaningful. Without your special function has this | world no meaning for you. Yet it can become a treasure house as rich |
| Tx:26.6 | been lost. Hear then the song your brother sings to you. And let the | world recede and take the rest his witness offers on behalf of peace. |
| Tx:26.8 | gentleness upon His Son and keeps him safe from all injustices the | world would lay upon him. Could it be that you could make his sins |
| Tx:26.19 | grasped. There is a borderland of thought which stands between this | world and Heaven. It is not a place, and when you reach it is apart |
| Tx:26.20 | This is the journey's end. We have referred to it as the “real | world.” And yet there is a contradiction here in that the words imply |
| Tx:26.21 | last evaluation that will be possible, the final judgment upon this | world. It is the judgment of the truth upon illusion, of knowledge on |
| Tx:26.21 | decision. It is but a simple statement of a simple fact. But in this | world, there are no simple facts because what is the same and what is |
| Tx:26.21 | the worlds. In this one, choice is made impossible. In the real | world is choosing simplified. |
| Tx:26.23 | There is no basis for choice in this complex and over-complicated | world. For no one understands what is the same and seems to choose |
| Tx:26.23 | is the same and seems to choose where no choice really is. The real | world is the area of choice made real, not in the outcome but in the |
| Tx:26.25 | is this world's equivalent of Heaven's justice. It translates the | world of sin into a simple world where justice can be reflected from |
| Tx:26.25 | of Heaven's justice. It translates the world of sin into a simple | world where justice can be reflected from beyond the gate behind |
| Tx:26.25 | love could need forgiveness. And what is charity within the | world gives way to simple justice past the gate that opens into |
| Tx:26.26 | Forgiveness turns the | world of sin into a world of glory, wonderful to see. Each flower |
| Tx:26.26 | Forgiveness turns the world of sin into a | world of glory, wonderful to see. Each flower shines in light, and |
| Tx:26.27 | has left a place for Heaven's altar to rise and tower far above the | world and reach beyond the universe to touch the heart of all |
| Tx:26.29 | Where sin once was perceived will rise a | world which will become an altar to the truth, and you will join the |
| Tx:26.31 | hindrance to eternity, quite meaningless to the real Teacher of the | world. Yet since you do believe in [its reality], why should you |
| Tx:26.34 | teacher. Only in the past—an ancient past, too short to make a | world in answer to creation—did this world appear to rise. So very |
| Tx:26.34 | past, too short to make a world in answer to creation—did this | world appear to rise. So very long ago, for such a tiny interval of |
| Tx:26.41 | gone and hinder not the true existence of the here and now. The real | world is the second part of the hallucination time and death are real |
| Tx:26.43 | that lies between the worlds. You have gone on and reached the | world that lies at Heaven's gate. There is no hindrance to the Will |
| Tx:26.43 | that was over long ago. Look gently on each other and behold the | world in which perception of your hate has been transformed into a |
| Tx:26.43 | world in which perception of your hate has been transformed into a | world of love. |
| Tx:26.44 | Anything in this | world that you believe is good and valuable and worth striving for |
| Tx:26.44 | is not nothing and through its perceived reality has entered all the | world of sick illusions. All belief in sin, in power of attack, in |
| Tx:26.46 | your only Friend in truth. He brings you gifts that are not of this | world, and only He to whom they have been given can make sure that |
| Tx:26.48 | for punishment, and its request is granted—not in truth but in the | world of shadows and illusions built on sin. The Son of God perceives |
| Tx:26.49 | of anything that is apart from it. Yet has God given answer to the | world of sickness which applies to all its forms. God's answer is |
| Tx:26.49 | of God, the laws of time do not affect its workings. It is in this | world, but not a part of it. For it is real and dwells where all |
| Tx:26.52 | laws of two opposing powers until God becomes impatient, splits the | world apart, and relegates attack unto Himself. Thus has He lost His |
| Tx:26.53 | is the only function here and serves to bring the joy this | world denies to every aspect of God's Son where sin was thought to |
| Tx:26.54 | still conceives of other choices and has not yet reached beyond the | world of choice entirely. |
| Tx:26.56 | there; a little sigh that speaks for Heaven as a preference to this | world which death and desolation seem to rule. In joyous answer will |
| Tx:26.56 | rule. In joyous answer will creation rise within you to replace the | world you see with Heaven, wholly perfect and complete. What is |
| Tx:26.57 | not understood apart from Him and therefore has no meaning in this | world. |
| Tx:26.59 | their source made real and meaningful. And from this error does the | world of sin and sacrifice arise. This world is an attempt to prove |
| Tx:26.59 | And from this error does the world of sin and sacrifice arise. This | world is an attempt to prove your innocence while cherishing attack. |
| Tx:26.66 | your wishes are fulfilled. Let us unite in bringing blessing to the | world of sin and death. For what can save each one of us can save us |
| Tx:26.79 | sun. What was a place of death has now become a living temple in a | world of light. Because of Them. It is Their Presence which has |
| Tx:26.81 | no space nor distance lingering between the light of Heaven and the | world. |
| Tx:26.83 | the light where it has entered in. Your footprints lighten up the | world, for where you walk forgiveness gladly goes with you. No one on |
| Tx:26.89 | be known to you. And to this purpose, nothing can be added, for the | world is purposeless except for this. To add or take away from this |
| Tx:26.89 | away from this one goal is but to take away all purpose from the | world and from yourself. And each unfairness that the world appears |
| Tx:26.89 | from the world and from yourself. And each unfairness that the | world appears to lay upon you, you have laid on it by rendering it |
| Tx:26.90 | unfairly and who see as you have judged, you cannot calculate. The | world grows dim and threatening, and not a trace of all the happy |
| Tx:26.90 | abandoned to the dark, unfairly left without a purpose in a futile | world. The world is fair because the Holy Spirit has brought |
| Tx:26.90 | to the dark, unfairly left without a purpose in a futile world. The | world is fair because the Holy Spirit has brought injustice to the |
| Tx:27.7 | will for life, but wish for death that is the motivation for this | world. Its only purpose is to prove guilt real. No worldly thought or |
| Tx:27.18 | Thus does the miracle undo all things the | world attests can never be undone. And hopelessness and death must |
| Tx:27.18 | and of the Son unto his own, will yet be the last trumpet that the | world will ever hear. Brother, there is no death. And this you learn |
| Tx:27.20 | of your serenity is his. This is the “price” the Holy Spirit and the | world interpret differently. The world perceives it as a statement of |
| Tx:27.20 | the “price” the Holy Spirit and the world interpret differently. The | world perceives it as a statement of the “fact” that your salvation |
| Tx:27.35 | at all. Give welcome to the Power beyond forgiveness and beyond the | world of symbols and of limitations. He would merely be, and so He |
| Tx:27.38 | found. Nowhere outside a single simple question is ever asked. The | world can only ask a double question with many answers, none of which |
| Tx:27.38 | only to restate its point of view. All questions asked within this | world are but a way of looking, not a question asked. A question |
| Tx:27.39 | The | world asks but one question. It is this: “Of these illusions, which |
| Tx:27.39 | joy? And which can bring escape from all the pain of which this | world is made?” Whatever form the question takes, its purpose is the |
| Tx:27.40 | the answer even as it asks. Thus is all questioning within the | world a form of propaganda for itself. Just as the body's witnesses |
| Tx:27.40 | from within itself, so are the answers to the questions of the | world contained within the questions. Where answers represent the |
| Tx:27.42 | because it answers questions truly asked. The questions of the | world but ask of whom is sacrifice demanded, asking not if sacrifice |
| Tx:27.43 | Therefore, attempt to solve no problems in a | world from which the answer has been barred. But bring the problem to |
| Tx:27.43 | and see what can be answered—what the question is. Within the | world the answers merely raise another question, though they leave |
| Tx:27.46 | the miracle's abiding-place. From there each one is born into this | world as witness to a state of mind which has transcended conflict |
| Tx:27.47 | Be not afraid of blessing, for the One Who blesses you loves all the | world and leaves nothing within the world that could be feared. But |
| Tx:27.47 | Who blesses you loves all the world and leaves nothing within the | world that could be feared. But if you shrink from blessing will the |
| Tx:27.47 | world that could be feared. But if you shrink from blessing will the | world indeed seem fearful, for you have withheld its peace and |
| Tx:27.47 | have withheld its peace and comfort, leaving it to die. Would not a | world so bitterly bereft be looked on as a condemnation by the one |
| Tx:27.47 | well its question. It is asked of you on your behalf. A dying | world asks only that you rest an instant from attack upon yourself, |
| Tx:27.48 | that is there received is left behind on your returning to the | world. And being blessed, you will bring blessing. Life is given you |
| Tx:27.48 | you will bring blessing. Life is given you to give the dying | world. And suffering eyes no longer will accuse, but shine in thanks |
| Tx:27.48 | the other, for they cannot both be there. And what you see the | world will witness, and will witness to. |
| Tx:27.49 | Thus is your healing everything the | world requires that it may be healed. It needs one lesson which has |
| Tx:27.49 | has perfectly been learned. And then when you forget it will the | world remind you gently of what you have taught. No reinforcement |
| Tx:27.49 | to you who brought the sight to them by which they witnessed it. The | world of accusation is replaced by one in which all eyes look |
| Tx:27.50 | but they take specific forms, and these specific shapes make up the | world. And no one understands the nature of his problem. If he did, |
| Tx:27.59 | Love, too, has symbols in a | world of sin. The miracle forgives because it stands for what is past |
| Tx:27.59 | sufferings. Yet to the One Who sends forth miracles to bless the | world, a tiny stab of pain, a little worldly pleasure, and the throes |
| Tx:27.59 | sound—a call for healing and a plaintive cry for help within a | world of misery. It is their sameness that the miracle attests. It is |
| Tx:27.60 | But there is need that you be healed, because the suffering of the | world has made it deaf to its salvation and deliverance. |
| Tx:27.61 | The resurrection of the | world awaits your healing and your happiness, that you may |
| Tx:27.61 | and your happiness, that you may demonstrate the healing of the | world. The holy instant will replace all sin if you but carry its |
| Tx:27.62 | Suffering is an emphasis upon all that the | world has done to injure you. Here is the world's demented version of |
| Tx:27.64 | The “reasoning” by which the | world is made, on which it rests, by which it is maintained, is |
| Tx:27.64 | it makes no sense. Yet it seems sensible because it looks as if the | world were hurting you. And so it seems as if there is no need to go |
| Tx:27.65 | world's escape from condemnation is a need which those within the | world are joined in sharing. Yet they do not recognize their common |
| Tx:27.65 | each one thinks that if he does his part, the condemnation of the | world will rest on him. And it is this that he perceives to be his |
| Tx:27.65 | he does not hold has made upon himself. This is the purpose of the | world he sees. And looked at thus, the world provides the means by |
| Tx:27.65 | This is the purpose of the world he sees. And looked at thus, the | world provides the means by which this purpose seems to be fulfilled. |
| Tx:27.67 | The part you play in salvaging the | world from condemnation is your own escape. Forget not that the |
| Tx:27.67 | condemnation is your own escape. Forget not that the witness to the | world of evil cannot speak except for what has seen a need for evil |
| Tx:27.67 | of evil cannot speak except for what has seen a need for evil in the | world. And this is where your guilt was first beheld. In separation |
| Tx:27.67 | brother was the first attack upon yourself begun. And it is this the | world bears witness to. Seek not another cause nor look among the |
| Tx:27.67 | space. And it is here you find the cause of your perspective on the | world. |
| Tx:27.68 | Once you were unaware of what the cause of everything the | world appeared to thrust upon you, uninvited and unasked, must really |
| Tx:27.69 | No one can waken from a dream the | world is dreaming for him. He becomes a part of someone else's dream. |
| Tx:27.69 | to a senseless plot conceived within the idle dreaming of the | world. |
| Tx:27.71 | one in which the choice is split between a tiny you and an enormous | world, with different dreams about the truth in you. The gap between |
| Tx:27.71 | gap between reality and dreams lies not between the dreaming of the | world and what you dream in secret. They are one. The dreaming of the |
| Tx:27.71 | and what you dream in secret. They are one. The dreaming of the | world is but a part of your own dream you gave away and saw as if it |
| Tx:27.72 | enemy, the scavenger and the destroyer of [the] brother and the | world alike. Here is the cause of suffering, the space between your |
| Tx:27.73 | You are the dreamer of the | world of dreams. No other cause it has, nor ever will. Nothing more |
| Tx:27.77 | The body is the central figure in the dreaming of the | world. There is no dream without it, nor does it exist without the |
| Tx:27.77 | tells the story of how it was made by other bodies, born into the | world outside the body, lives a little while and dies, to be united |
| Tx:27.78 | The dreaming of the | world takes many forms, because the body seeks in many ways to prove |
| Tx:27.78 | which it has bought with little metal discs or paper strips the | world proclaims as valuable and good. It works to get them, doing |
| Tx:27.79 | from the time of birth to dying is the theme of every dream the | world has ever had. The “hero” of this dream will never change nor |
| Tx:27.81 | How willing are you to escape effects of all the dreams the | world has ever had? Is it your wish to let no dream appear to be the |
| Tx:27.81 | whose cause lies in the first. No one asleep and dreaming in the | world remembers his attack upon himself. No one believes there really |
| Tx:27.81 | when he knew nothing of a body and could never have conceived this | world as real. He would have seen at once that these ideas are one |
| Tx:27.83 | whose ending starts at its beginning, ending at its cause. The | world you see depicts exactly what you thought you did. Except that |
| Tx:27.83 | what you thought is being placed outside yourself and on a guilty | world which dreams your dreams and thinks your thoughts instead of |
| Tx:27.84 | The | world but demonstrates an ancient truth—you will believe that |
| Tx:27.89 | but not to listen, not to see. How differently will you perceive the | world when this is recognized! When you forgive the world your guilt, |
| Tx:27.89 | you perceive the world when this is recognized! When you forgive the | world your guilt, you will be free of it. Its innocence does not |
| Tx:27.90 | yourself. And it is this that has maintained you separate from the | world and kept your brother separate from you. Now need you but to |
| Tx:28.1 | but being kept in memory, appears to have immediate effects. This | world was over long ago. The thoughts that made it are no longer in |
| Tx:28.4 | is a skill that can remember now. The limitations on remembering the | world imposes on it are as vast as those you let the world impose on |
| Tx:28.4 | remembering the world imposes on it are as vast as those you let the | world impose on you. There is no link of memory to the past. If you |
| Tx:28.14 | Its effects are changelessly eternal, beyond fear, and past the | world of sin entirely. |
| Tx:28.18 | is given no effects and none are seen. A mind within a body and a | world of other bodies, each with separate minds, are your |
| Tx:28.20 | only that you see you made the one you would exchange for this. This | world is causeless, as is every dream that anyone has dreamed within |
| Tx:28.20 | is causeless, as is every dream that anyone has dreamed within the | world. No plans are possible and no design exists that could be found |
| Tx:28.25 | has no effects. Now are you freed from this much of the dream; the | world is neutral, and the bodies which still seem to move about as |
| Tx:28.27 | This | world is full of miracles. They stand in shining silence next to |
| Tx:28.27 | have been retraced, the ladder gone, and all the dreaming of the | world undone. |
| Tx:28.31 | The end of dreaming is the end of fear, and love was never in the | world of dreams. The gap is little. Yet it holds the seeds of |
| Tx:28.34 | as all the treasures you would keep within the storehouse of the | world. The door is open, not to thieves but to your starving brothers |
| Tx:28.34 | silver. They have nothing left behind the open door. What is the | world except a little gap perceived to tear eternity apart and break |
| Tx:28.34 | into days and months and years? And what are you who live within the | world except a picture of the Son of God in broken pieces, each |
| Tx:28.35 | Be not afraid, but let your | world be lit by miracles. And where the gap was seen to stand between |
| Tx:28.36 | This is a feast unlike indeed to those the dreaming of the | world has shown. For here, the more that anyone receives, the more is |
| Tx:28.50 | where your Self is safely hidden by what you have made. Here is a | world established that is sick, and this the world the body's eyes |
| Tx:28.50 | have made. Here is a world established that is sick, and this the | world the body's eyes perceive. Here are the sounds it hears—the |
| Tx:28.51 | your ears bear witness to illusion. They were made to look upon a | world that is not there, to hear the voices that can make no sound. |
| Tx:28.51 | senseless scrap and shred of evidence, and make a witness to the | world you want. Let not the body's ears and eyes perceive these |
| Tx:28.53 | not understand that it is here that you are kept as prisoners in a | world perceived to be existing here. The world you see does not exist |
| Tx:28.53 | are kept as prisoners in a world perceived to be existing here. The | world you see does not exist because the place where you perceive it |
| Tx:28.61 | and the Call to heal? Your savior waits for healing, and the | world waits with him. Nor are you apart from it. For healing will be |
| Tx:28.64 | But never you alone. This | world is but the dream that you can be alone and think without |
| Tx:28.66 | upon it, and the rain will beat against it but with no effect. The | world will wash away, and yet this house will stand forever, for its |
| Tx:29.15 | Confusion follows on confusion here, for on confusion has this | world been based, and there is nothing else it rests upon. Its basis |
| Tx:29.21 | see someone else as not a body, one with him, without the wall the | world has built to keep apart all living things who know not that |
| Tx:29.31 | There is a place in you where this whole | world has been forgotten, where no memory of sin and of illusion |
| Tx:29.32 | of Heaven is in you, so deep within that nothing in this | world but passes by, unnoticed and unseen. The still infinity of |
| Tx:29.34 | sword, for they have left their hold on every vain illusion of the | world. And being empty, they received instead a brother's hand in |
| Tx:29.36 | who serve the lord of death have come to worship in a separated | world, each with his tiny spear and rusted sword to keep his ancient |
| Tx:29.37 | though it was for this that every dream was made. Yet nothing in the | world of dreams remains without the hope of change and betterment, |
| Tx:29.37 | us be glad indeed that this is so and seek not the eternal in this | world. Forgiving dreams are means to step aside from dreaming of a |
| Tx:29.37 | world. Forgiving dreams are means to step aside from dreaming of a | world outside yourself. And leading finally beyond all dreams unto |
| Tx:29.42 | This | world will bind your feet and tie your hands and kill your body only |
| Tx:29.42 | it stand for this to you. Let this be changed, and nothing in the | world but must be changed as well. For nothing here but is defined as |
| Tx:29.42 | here but is defined as what you see it for. How lovely is the | world whose purpose is forgiveness of God's Son! How free from fear, |
| Tx:29.42 | a little while in such a happy place! Nor can it be forgot in such a | world, it is a little while till timelessness comes quietly to take |
| Tx:29.48 | All idols of this | world were made to keep the truth within from being known to you and |
| Tx:29.48 | Do not seek outside yourself. Let us forget the purpose of the | world the past has given it. For otherwise, the future will be like |
| Tx:29.49 | despair, you need but to decide you do not know the purpose of the | world. You give it goals it does not have, and thus do you decide |
| Tx:29.50 | my brothers; learn what time is for. And speed the end of idols in a | world made sad and sick by seeing idols there. Your holy minds are |
| Tx:29.50 | idol which you must protect against the light of truth. And all the | world becomes the means by which this idol can be saved. Salvation |
| Tx:29.53 | will complete your little self [and let you walk in] safety in a | world perceived as dangerous, with forces massed against your |
| Tx:29.53 | strength to raise his head and stand apart from all the misery the | world reflects. This is the penalty for looking not within for |
| Tx:29.53 | not within for certainty and quiet calm which liberates you from the | world and lets you stand apart in quiet and in peace [unlimited]. |
| Tx:29.55 | This | world of idols is a veil across the face of Christ because its |
| Tx:29.57 | place beyond the infinite, a time transcending the eternal. Here the | world of idols has been set by the idea this power and place and time |
| Tx:29.57 | the idea this power and place and time are given form and shape the | world where the impossible has happened. Here the deathless come to |
| Tx:29.59 | each depending on the one of whom the question has been asked. The | world believes in idols. No one comes unless he worshiped them and |
| Tx:29.64 | with. Who has need of toys but children? They pretend they rule the | world and give their toys the power to move about and talk and think |
| Tx:29.65 | the thoughts are real. And so he makes of anything a toy to make his | world remain outside himself, and play that he is but a part of it. |
| Tx:29.66 | bad things seem to happen, and he is afraid of all the chaos in a | world he thinks is governed by the laws he made. Yet is the real |
| Tx:29.66 | a world he thinks is governed by the laws he made. Yet is the real | world unaffected by the world he thinks is real. Nor have its laws |
| Tx:29.66 | by the laws he made. Yet is the real world unaffected by the | world he thinks is real. Nor have its laws been changed because he |
| Tx:29.67 | The real | world still is but a dream. Except the figures have been changed. |
| Tx:30.31 | They are made by you and your advisor for yourself and for the | world as well. The day you want you offer to the world, for it will |
| Tx:30.31 | and for the world as well. The day you want you offer to the | world, for it will be what you have asked for and will reinforce the |
| Tx:30.31 | have asked for and will reinforce the rule of your advisor in the | world. Whose kingdom is the world for you today? What kind of day |
| Tx:30.31 | the rule of your advisor in the world. Whose kingdom is the | world for you today? What kind of day will you decide to have? |
| Tx:30.32 | but two who would have happiness this day to promise it to all the | world. It needs but two to understand that they cannot decide alone |
| Tx:30.32 | keep in mind, and you will have the day you want and give it to the | world by having it yourself. Your judgment has been lifted from the |
| Tx:30.32 | world by having it yourself. Your judgment has been lifted from the | world by your decision for a happy day. And as you have received, so |
| Tx:30.35 | you chose to hate instead of love. For thus was hatred born into the | world, and thus the rule of fear established there. Now hear God |
| Tx:30.36 | What cause have you for anger in a | world which merely waits your blessing to be free? If you be |
| Tx:30.37 | This | world awaits the freedom you will give when you have recognized that |
| Tx:30.37 | you have recognized that you are free. But you will not forgive the | world until you have forgiven Him Who gave your will to you. For it |
| Tx:30.37 | forgiven Him Who gave your will to you. For it is by your will the | world is given freedom. Nor can you be free apart from Him Whose holy |
| Tx:30.37 | from Him Whose holy will you share. God turns to you to ask the | world be saved, for by your own salvation it is healed. And no one |
| Tx:30.47 | of you. Completely unaffected by the turmoil and the terror of the | world, the dreams of birth and death that here are dreamed, the |
| Tx:30.47 | Here is your one reality kept safe, completely unaware of all the | world that worships idols and that knows not God. In perfect sureness |
| Tx:30.48 | but where you are? Is your reality a thing apart from you and in a | world which your reality knows nothing of? Outside you there is no |
| Tx:30.50 | and the bears did not deceive him, broke no rules, nor mean his | world is made chaotic and unsafe. He was mistaken. He misunderstood |
| Tx:30.57 | The real | world is the state of mind in which the only purpose of the world is |
| Tx:30.57 | The real world is the state of mind in which the only purpose of the | world is seen to be forgiveness. Fear is not its goal, and the escape |
| Tx:30.58 | and the means by which it can be gained can now be understood. The | world becomes a place of hope because its only purpose is to be a |
| Tx:30.58 | can be fulfilled. And no one stands outside this hope because the | world has been united in belief the purpose of the world is one which |
| Tx:30.58 | hope because the world has been united in belief the purpose of the | world is one which all must share if hope be more than just a dream. |
| Tx:30.60 | this can be, for understanding this is Heaven itself. Even the real | world has a purpose still beneath creation and eternity. But fear is |
| Tx:30.61 | The real | world still falls short of this, for this is God's own purpose—only |
| Tx:30.61 | His, and yet completely shared and perfectly fulfilled. The real | world is a state in which the mind has learned how easily do idols go |
| Tx:30.63 | When brothers join in purpose in the | world of fear, they stand already at the edge of the real world. |
| Tx:30.63 | in the world of fear, they stand already at the edge of the real | world. Perhaps they still look back and think they see an idol that |
| Tx:30.64 | How light and easy is the step across the narrow boundaries of the | world of fear when you have recognized Whose hand you hold! Within |
| Tx:30.65 | An ancient hate is passing from the | world. And with it goes all hatred and all fear. Look back no longer, |
| Tx:30.65 | what lies ahead is all you ever wanted in your hearts. Give up the | world! But not to sacrifice. You never wanted it. What happiness have |
| Tx:30.70 | escape from fear begins and will be made complete. Here is the real | world given in exchange for dreams of terror. For it is on this |
| Tx:30.72 | This understanding is the only change that lets the real | world rise to take the place of dreams of terror. Fear cannot arise |
| Tx:30.72 | and if it had a real foundation, pardon would have none. The real | world is achieved when you perceive the basis of forgiveness is quite |
| Tx:30.72 | “forgive.” Unjustified forgiveness is attack. And this is all the | world can ever give. It pardons “sinners” sometimes but remains aware |
| Tx:30.73 | This is the false forgiveness which the | world employs to keep the sense of sin alive. And recognizing God is |
| Tx:30.74 | be one mistake which had the power to undo creation and to make a | world which could replace it and destroy the Will of God. Only if |
| Tx:30.82 | Would God have left the meaning of the | world to your interpretation? If He had, it has no meaning. For it |
| Tx:30.82 | changes constantly and yet is true. The Holy Spirit looks upon the | world as with one purpose, changelessly established. And no situation |
| Tx:30.85 | perception can be stabilized and one interpretation given to the | world and all experiences here. In this shared purpose is one |
| Tx:30.86 | this—all things have but one purpose which you share with all the | world. And nothing in the world can be opposed to it, for it belongs |
| Tx:30.86 | one purpose which you share with all the world. And nothing in the | world can be opposed to it, for it belongs to everything as it |
| Tx:30.88 | It will shift in what it stands for, and you will believe the | world is an uncertain place in which you walk in danger and |
| Tx:31.3 | the power of your learning skill. There is no greater power in the | world. The world was made by it and even now depends on nothing else. |
| Tx:31.3 | of your learning skill. There is no greater power in the world. The | world was made by it and even now depends on nothing else. The |
| Tx:31.4 | taking every step, however difficult, without complaint until a | world was built that suited you. And every lesson that makes up the |
| Tx:31.4 | world was built that suited you. And every lesson that makes up the | world arises from the first accomplishment of learning—an enormity |
| Tx:31.4 | Holy Spirit's Voice seems small and still before its magnitude. The | world began with one strange lesson, powerful enough to render God |
| Tx:31.5 | only purpose for your learning skill the Holy Spirit sees in all the | world. His simple lessons in forgiveness have a power mightier than |
| Tx:31.7 | to be learned are only two. Each has its outcome in a different | world. And each world follows surely from its source. The certain |
| Tx:31.7 | are only two. Each has its outcome in a different world. And each | world follows surely from its source. The certain outcome of the |
| Tx:31.7 | The certain outcome of the lesson that God's Son is guilty is the | world you see. It is a world of terror and despair. Nor is there hope |
| Tx:31.7 | of the lesson that God's Son is guilty is the world you see. It is a | world of terror and despair. Nor is there hope of happiness in it. |
| Tx:31.7 | still. And you will learn God's Son is innocent and see another | world. |
| Tx:31.8 | The outcome of the lesson that God's Son is guiltless is a | world in which there is no fear and everything is lit with hope and |
| Tx:31.8 | understand it was this call that everyone and everything within the | world has always made, but you had not perceived it as it was. And |
| Tx:31.8 | of each part of God's creation to the whole is heard throughout the | world this second lesson brings. |
| Tx:31.10 | behind each murderous attack and pleads that love restore the dying | world! You do not understand Who calls to you beyond each form of |
| Tx:31.11 | deeper call beyond it that appeals for peace and joy. And all the | world will give you joy and peace. For as you hear, you answer. And |
| Tx:31.11 | Your answer is the proof of what you learned. Its outcome is the | world you look upon. |
| Tx:31.12 | what their purpose is. Let us remember not our own ideas of what the | world is for. We do not know. Let every image held of [anyone] be |
| Tx:31.30 | of sacrifice preserved, for here guilt rules and orders that the | world be like itself—a place where nothing can find mercy or |
| Tx:31.33 | There is a tendency to think the | world can offer consolation and escape from problems which its |
| Tx:31.34 | Real choice is no illusion. But the | world has none to offer. All its roads but lead to disappointment, |
| Tx:31.34 | choice in its alternatives. Seek not escape from problems here. The | world was made that problems could not be escaped. Be not deceived by |
| Tx:31.35 | them all before you really learn they are but one. The roads this | world can offer seem to be quite large in number, but the time must |
| Tx:31.35 | this because they saw no way except the pathways offered by the | world. And learning they led nowhere, lost their hope. And yet this |
| Tx:31.35 | go beyond it. It is true indeed there is no choice at all within the | world. But this is not the lesson in itself. The lesson has a |
| Tx:31.36 | found. Learn now, without despair, there is no hope of answer in the | world. But do not judge the lesson which is but begun with this. Seek |
| Tx:31.36 | which is but begun with this. Seek not another signpost in the | world which seems to point to still another road. No longer look for |
| Tx:31.37 | Who would be willing to be turned away from all the roadways of the | world unless he understood their real futility? Is it not needful |
| Tx:31.38 | The learning that the | world can offer but one choice, no matter what its form may be, is |
| Tx:31.38 | your purpose here. You did not come to learn to find a road the | world does not contain. The search for different pathways in the |
| Tx:31.38 | the world does not contain. The search for different pathways in the | world is but the search for different forms of truth. And this would |
| Tx:31.40 | is still the same illusion and the same mistake. All choices in the | world depend on this—you choose between your brother and yourself, |
| Tx:31.41 | forgot His Presence and remembered not His Love. No pathway in the | world can lead to Him, nor any worldly goal is one with His. What |
| Tx:31.41 | to Him, nor any worldly goal is one with His. What road in all the | world will lead within, when every road was made to separate the |
| Tx:31.43 | The learning of the | world is built upon a concept of the self adjusted to the world's |
| Tx:31.43 | world's reality. It fits it well. For this an image is that suits a | world of shadows and illusions. Here it walks at home, where what it |
| Tx:31.43 | The building of a concept of the self is what the learning of the | world is for. This is its purpose—that you come without a self and |
| Tx:31.43 | by the time you reach “maturity,” you have perfected it to meet the | world on equal terms, at one with its demands. |
| Tx:31.44 | the place of your reality as Son of God. The concept of the self the | world would teach is not the thing that it appears to be. For it is |
| Tx:31.44 | sometimes offers solace. It believes that it is good within an evil | world. |
| Tx:31.45 | This aspect can grow angry, for the | world is wicked and unable to provide the love and shelter innocence |
| Tx:31.45 | And so this face is often wet with tears at the injustices the | world accords to those who would be generous and good. This aspect |
| Tx:31.46 | tolerate attack in self-defense, for is it not a well-known fact the | world deals harshly with defenseless innocence? No one who makes a |
| Tx:31.46 | side he does not want to see. Yet it is here the learning of the | world has set its sights, for it is here the world's “reality” is set |
| Tx:31.47 | condemned because of what I am.” On this conception of the self the | world smiles with approval, for it guarantees the pathways of the |
| Tx:31.47 | world smiles with approval, for it guarantees the pathways of the | world are safely kept and those who walk on them will not escape. |
| Tx:31.49 | to which its maker gives a meaning of his own? Concepts maintain the | world. But they cannot be used to demonstrate the world is real. For |
| Tx:31.49 | maintain the world. But they cannot be used to demonstrate the | world is real. For all of them are made within the world, born in its |
| Tx:31.49 | demonstrate the world is real. For all of them are made within the | world, born in its shadow, growing in its ways, and finally |
| Tx:31.49 | its thought. They are ideas of idols painted with the brushes of the | world, which cannot make a single picture representing truth. |
| Tx:31.50 | therefore cannot picture what it is. Yet is all learning which the | world directs begun and ended with the single aim of teaching you |
| Tx:31.51 | came what you should do in every circumstance? He must have made the | world as well as you to have such prescience in the things to come. |
| Tx:31.52 | make the other? And from whom must something be kept hidden? If the | world be evil, there is still no need to hide what you are made of. |
| Tx:31.53 | one who would not think it true is you. And what would happen to the | world you know if all its underpinnings were removed? Your concept of |
| Tx:31.53 | you know if all its underpinnings were removed? Your concept of the | world depends upon this concept of the self. And both would go if |
| Tx:31.56 | concept of the self has always been the great preoccupation of the | world. And everyone believes that he must find the answer to the |
| Tx:31.57 | perceive that you can interact but with yourself. To see a guilty | world is but the sign your learning has been guided by the world, and |
| Tx:31.57 | a guilty world is but the sign your learning has been guided by the | world, and you behold it as you see yourself. The concept of the self |
| Tx:31.58 | time there is a shift, but be you thankful that the learning of the | world is loosening its grasp upon your mind. And be you sure and |
| Tx:31.59 | The | world can teach no images of you unless you want to learn them. There |
| Tx:31.59 | sanctuary, clean and free of guilt. There is no statement that the | world is more afraid to hear than this: |
| Tx:31.60 | do not know what I am doing, where I am, or how to look upon the | world or on myself. |
| Tx:31.62 | and think is real and hold as true. On this one choice does all your | world depend, for here have you established what you are, as flesh or |
| Tx:31.62 | to touch your eyes and bless your holy sight, that you may see the | world of flesh no more except to heal and comfort and to bless. |
| Tx:31.63 | Salvation is undoing. If you choose to see the body, you behold a | world of separation, unrelated things, and happenings that make no |
| Tx:31.64 | can see the body without help but do not understand how to behold a | world apart from it. It is your world salvation will undo and let you |
| Tx:31.64 | do not understand how to behold a world apart from it. It is your | world salvation will undo and let you see another world your eyes |
| Tx:31.64 | it. It is your world salvation will undo and let you see another | world your eyes could never find. Be not concerned how this could |
| Tx:31.65 | the way to Heaven plain. The means are given you by which to see the | world that will replace the one you made. Your will be done! In |
| Tx:31.66 | does not fit the picture as it was perceived before will change the | world for eyes that learn to see, because the concept of the self has |
| Tx:31.66 | the concept of the self has changed. Are you invulnerable? Then the | world is harmless in your sight. Do you forgive? Then is the world |
| Tx:31.66 | the world is harmless in your sight. Do you forgive? Then is the | world forgiving, for you have forgiven it its trespasses and so it |
| Tx:31.66 | on you with eyes that see as yours. Are you a body? So is all the | world perceived as treacherous and out to kill. |
| Tx:31.67 | the promise of corruption and the stain of sin upon you? So the | world is seen as stable, fully worthy of your trust; a happy place to |
| Tx:31.70 | And this will be your concept of yourself, when you have reached the | world beyond the sight your eyes alone can offer you to see. For you |
| Tx:31.70 | the Aid that God has given you. And in His sight there is another | world. |
| Tx:31.71 | You live in that | world just as much as this. For both are concepts of yourself which |
| Tx:31.73 | you not rather look upon yourself as needed for salvation of the | world instead of as salvation's enemy? |
| Tx:31.82 | Let not the world's light, given unto you, be hidden from the | world. It needs the light, for it is dark indeed, and men despair |
| Tx:31.84 | once again if you would take your place among the saviors of the | world, or would remain in hell and hold your brothers there. |
| Tx:31.88 | His majesty and disappears before His holy sight. The saviors of the | world who see like Him are merely those who chose His strength |
| Tx:31.88 | of their own weakness, seen apart from Him. They will redeem the | world, for they are joined in all the power of the Will of God. And |
| Tx:31.93 | of God and power to bring this peace to everyone who wanders in the | world uncertain, lonely, and in constant fear. For it is given you to |
| Tx:31.93 | nothing but your own release. There is no place for hell within a | world whose loveliness can yet be so intense and so inclusive it is |
| Tx:31.93 | there to Heaven. To your tired eyes I bring a vision of a different | world, so new and clean and fresh you will forget the pain and sorrow |
| Tx:31.94 | Let us be glad that we can walk the | world and find so many chances to perceive another situation where |
| Tx:31.95 | And I give thanks for them. Salvation's song will echo through the | world with every choice they make. For we are one in purpose, and the |
| Tx:31.96 | from tiny scattered threads of melody to one inclusive chorus from a | world redeemed from hell and giving thanks to You. |
| W1:I.3 | is to train the mind to a different perception of everything in the | world. The workbook is divided into two sections, the first dealing |
| W1:11.1 | of the correction process—the reversal of the thinking of the | world. It seems as if the world determines what you perceive. Today's |
| W1:11.1 | —the reversal of the thinking of the world. It seems as if the | world determines what you perceive. Today's idea introduces the |
| W1:11.1 | Today's idea introduces the concept that your thoughts determine the | world you see. Be glad indeed to practice the idea in this initial |
| W1:12.1 | distortion. You think that what upsets you is a frightening | world, or a sad world, or a violent world, or an insane world. All |
| W1:12.1 | You think that what upsets you is a frightening world, or a sad | world, or a violent world, or an insane world. All these attributes |
| W1:12.1 | what upsets you is a frightening world, or a sad world, or a violent | world, or an insane world. All these attributes are given it by you. |
| W1:12.1 | frightening world, or a sad world, or a violent world, or an insane | world. All these attributes are given it by you. The world is |
| W1:12.1 | or an insane world. All these attributes are given it by you. The | world is meaningless in itself. |
| W1:12.4 | I think I see a fearful | world, a dangerous world, a hostile world, a sad world, a wicked |
| W1:12.4 | I think I see a fearful world, a dangerous | world, a hostile world, a sad world, a wicked world, a crazy world; |
| W1:12.4 | I think I see a fearful world, a dangerous world, a hostile | world, a sad world, a wicked world, a crazy world; |
| W1:12.4 | I see a fearful world, a dangerous world, a hostile world, a sad | world, a wicked world, a crazy world; |
| W1:12.4 | world, a dangerous world, a hostile world, a sad world, a wicked | world, a crazy world; |
| W1:12.4 | world, a hostile world, a sad world, a wicked world, a crazy | world; |
| W1:12.5 | occur to you, include them. For example, you might think of a “good | world,” or a “satisfying world.” If such terms occur to you, use them |
| W1:12.5 | For example, you might think of a “good world,” or a “satisfying | world.” If such terms occur to you, use them along with the rest. You |
| W1:12.7 | But I am upset because I see a meaningless | world. |
| W1:12.8 | meaningless is neither good nor bad. Why, then, should a meaningless | world upset you? If you could accept the world as meaningless and let |
| W1:12.8 | then, should a meaningless world upset you? If you could accept the | world as meaningless and let the truth be written upon it for you, it |
| W1:13.1 | is more specific as to the emotion aroused. Actually, a meaningless | world is impossible. Nothing without meaning exists. However, it does |
| W1:13.3 | fear. If you are fearful, it is certain that you will endow the | world with attributes which it does not possess and crowd it with |
| W1:13.5 | I am looking at a meaningless | world. |
| W1:13.7 | A meaningless | world engenders fear because I think I am in competition with God. |
| W1:14.1 | The idea for today is, of course, the reason why a meaningless | world is impossible. What God did not create does not exist. And |
| W1:14.1 | exist. And everything that does exist exists as He created it. The | world you see has nothing to do with reality. It is of your own |
| W1:14.3 | in learning to let go the thoughts which you have written on the | world, and see the Word of God in their place. The early steps in |
| W1:14.4 | With eyes closed, think of all the horrors in the | world that cross your mind. Name each one as it occurs to you, and |
| W1:14.7 | of horrors at which you are looking. These things are part of the | world you see. Some of them are shared illusions, and others are part |
| W1:14.8 | God did not create a meaningless | world. |
| W1:14.10 | God did not create a meaningless | world. He did not create [specify the situation which is disturbing |
| W1:16.2 | of “idle thoughts.” What gives rise to the perception of a whole | world can hardly be called idle. Every thought you have contributes |
| W1:17.1 | that it is really the other way around. This is not the way the | world thinks, but you must learn that it is the way you think. If it |
| W1:20.1 | importance of the reversal of your thinking. The salvation of the | world depends on it. Yet you will not see if you regard yourself as |
| W1:20.3 | a sign that our goal is of little worth. Can the salvation of the | world be a trivial purpose? And can the world be saved if you are |
| W1:20.3 | Can the salvation of the world be a trivial purpose? And can the | world be saved if you are not? God has one Son, and he is the |
| W1:20.5 | see. Such is the real law of cause and effect as it operates in the | world. |
| W1:22.1 | the way anyone who holds attack thoughts in his mind must see the | world. Having projected his anger onto the world, he sees vengeance |
| W1:22.1 | in his mind must see the world. Having projected his anger onto the | world, he sees vengeance about to strike at him. His own attack is |
| W1:22.1 | attack and counter-attack will preoccupy him and people his entire | world. What peace of mind is possible to him then? |
| W1:22.3 | Look at the | world about you at least five times today, for at least a minute each |
| W1:22.6 | Is this the | world I really want to see? |
| W1:23.1 | way cannot fail. Every thought you have makes up some segment of the | world you see. It is with your thoughts, then, that we must work if |
| W1:23.1 | your thoughts, then, that we must work if your perception of the | world is to be changed. |
| W1:23.2 | If the cause of the | world you see is attack thoughts, you must learn that it is these |
| W1:23.2 | thoughts which you do not want. There is no point in lamenting the | world. There is no point in trying to change the world. It is |
| W1:23.2 | in lamenting the world. There is no point in trying to change the | world. It is incapable of change because it is merely an effect. But |
| W1:23.2 | But there is indeed a point in changing your thoughts about the | world. Here you are changing the cause. The effects will change |
| W1:23.3 | The | world you see is a vengeful world, and everything in it is a symbol |
| W1:23.3 | The world you see is a vengeful | world, and everything in it is a symbol of vengeance. Each of your |
| W1:23.4 | You see the | world which you have made, but you do not see yourself as the |
| W1:23.4 | do not see yourself as the image-maker. You cannot be saved from the | world, but you can escape from its cause. This is what salvation |
| W1:23.4 | from its cause. This is what salvation means, for where is the | world you see when its cause is gone? Vision already holds a |
| W1:23.5 | for today introduces the thought that you are not trapped in the | world you see, because its cause can be changed. This change |
| W1:23.7 | I can escape from the | world by giving up attack thoughts about _____. |
| W1:23.9 | periods. We are still at the stage of identifying the cause of the | world you see. When you finally realize that thoughts of attack and |
| W1:25.2 | You perceive the | world and everything in it as meaningful in terms of ego goals. These |
| W1:25.2 | this, you will try to withdraw the goals you have assigned to the | world instead of attempting to reinforce them. |
| W1:29.3 | range. When vision has shown you the holiness that lights up the | world, you will understand today's idea perfectly. And you will not |
| W1:30.1 | for today is the springboard for vision. From this idea will the | world open up before you, and you will look upon it and see in it |
| W1:30.2 | not like by seeing it outside. Instead, we are trying to see in the | world what is in our minds, and what we want to recognize is there. |
| W1:31.1 | of release. Again, the idea should be applied to both the | world you see without and the world you see within. In applying the |
| W1:31.1 | the idea should be applied to both the world you see without and the | world you see within. In applying the idea, we will use a form of |
| W1:31.2 | times. Then close your eyes and apply the same idea to your inner | world. You will escape from both together, for the inner is the cause |
| W1:31.3 | As you survey your inner | world, merely let whatever thoughts cross your mind come into your |
| W1:31.4 | of your own freedom. And in your freedom lies the freedom of the | world. |
| W1:32.1 | develop the theme of cause and effect. You are not the victim of the | world you see because you invented it. You can give it up as easily |
| W1:32.2 | periods for today will again include two phases, one involving the | world you see outside you and the other the world you see in your |
| W1:32.2 | one involving the world you see outside you and the other the | world you see in your mind. In today's exercises, try to introduce |
| W1:32.3 | the idea for today two or three times while looking around at the | world you see as outside yourself. Then close your eyes and look |
| W1:32.3 | as outside yourself. Then close your eyes and look around your inner | world. Try to treat them both as equally as possible. Repeat the idea |
| W1:32.5 | repeating the idea slowly as you survey either your inner or outer | world. It does not matter which you choose. |
| W1:33.1 | is an attempt to recognize that you can shift your perception of the | world in both its outer and inner aspects. A full five minutes should |
| W1:33.2 | an abrupt sense of shifting. Merely glance casually around the | world you perceive as outside yourself, then close your eyes and |
| W1:34.1 | It is from your peace of mind that a peaceful perception of the | world arises. |
| W1:34.2 | applications should be done with your eyes closed. It is your inner | world to which the applications of today's idea should be made. |
| W1:35.1 | will show you. It is difficult for anyone who thinks he is in this | world to believe this of himself. Yet the reason he thinks he is in |
| W1:35.1 | to believe this of himself. Yet the reason he thinks he is in this | world is because he does not believe it. |
| W1:37.1 | This idea contains the first glimmerings of your true function in the | world or why you are here. Your purpose is to see the world through |
| W1:37.1 | in the world or why you are here. Your purpose is to see the | world through your own holiness. Thus are you and the world blessed |
| W1:37.1 | is to see the world through your own holiness. Thus are you and the | world blessed together. No one loses; nothing is taken away from |
| W1:37.3 | Your holiness is the salvation of the | world. It lets you teach the world that it is one with you, not by |
| W1:37.3 | Your holiness is the salvation of the world. It lets you teach the | world that it is one with you, not by preaching to it, not by telling |
| W1:37.8 | may open your eyes again and apply the idea for today to your outer | world if you so desire; you may alternate between applying the idea |
| W1:38.1 | Your holiness reverses all the laws of the | world. It is beyond every restriction of time, space, distance, and |
| W1:39.3 | We have already said that your holiness is the salvation of the | world. What about your own salvation? You cannot give what you do not |
| W1:39.3 | recognizing that your salvation is crucial to the salvation of the | world. As you apply the exercises to your own world, the whole world |
| W1:39.3 | the salvation of the world. As you apply the exercises to your own | world, the whole world stands to benefit. |
| W1:39.3 | the world. As you apply the exercises to your own world, the whole | world stands to benefit. |
| W1:39.4 | and therefore the end of hell. Your holiness is the salvation of the | world and your own. How could you to whom your holiness belongs be |
| W1:41.1 | invented many “cures” for what they believe to be the “ills of the | world.” But the one thing they do not do is to question the reality |
| W1:41.2 | that is perfect, ready to radiate through you and out into the whole | world. It will cure all sorrow and pain and fear and loss because it |
| W1:41.5 | to get a sense of turning inward, past all the idle thoughts of the | world. Try to enter very deeply into your own mind, keeping it clear |
| W1:41.6 | helpful. But most of all, try to sink down and inward, away from the | world and all the foolish thoughts of the world. You are trying to |
| W1:41.6 | and inward, away from the world and all the foolish thoughts of the | world. You are trying to reach past all these things. You are trying |
| W1:41.7 | In fact it is very easy because it is the most natural thing in the | world. You might even say it is the only natural thing in the world. |
| W1:41.7 | in the world. You might even say it is the only natural thing in the | world. The way will open if you believe that it is possible. This |
| W1:43.9 | I see through the eyes of forgiveness. I see the | world as blessed. The world can show me myself. I see my own |
| W1:43.9 | see through the eyes of forgiveness. I see the world as blessed. The | world can show me myself. I see my own thoughts, which are like God's. |
| W1:44.4 | exercise we will use today is the most natural and easy one in the | world for the trained mind, just as it seems to be the most unnatural |
| W1:44.10 | formless and without limit, as you pass by the thoughts of this | world. And do not forget that they cannot hold you to the world |
| W1:44.10 | of this world. And do not forget that they cannot hold you to the | world unless you give them the power to do so. |
| W1:45.4 | attempt to leave the unreal and seek for the real. We will deny the | world in favor of truth. We will not let the thoughts of the world |
| W1:45.4 | the world in favor of truth. We will not let the thoughts of the | world hold us back, and we will not let the beliefs of the world tell |
| W1:45.4 | of the world hold us back, and we will not let the beliefs of the | world tell us that what God would have us do is impossible. |
| W1:46.1 | forgiveness is necessary. Forgiveness is the great need of this | world, but that is because it is a world of illusions. Those who |
| W1:46.1 | is the great need of this world, but that is because it is a | world of illusions. Those who forgive are thus releasing themselves |
| W1:49.1 | it or not. It is the other part of your mind that functions in the | world and obeys the world's laws. It is this part which is constantly |
| W1:49.4 | the frantic, riotous thoughts and sounds and sights of this insane | world. You do not live there. We are trying to reach your real home. |
| W1:49.5 | the idea for today slowly whenever you can, closing your eyes on the | world and realizing that you are inviting God's Voice to speak to you. |
| W1:50.1 | that confronts you today and tomorrow and throughout time. In this | world, you believe you are sustained by everything but God. Your |
| W1:50.2 | trial and raise you high above all the perceived dangers of this | world into a climate of perfect peace and safety. It will transport |
| W1:52.3 | [7] I see only the past. As I look about, I condemn the | world I look upon. I call this seeing. I hold the past against |
| W1:53.2 | [11] My meaningless thoughts are showing me a meaningless | world. Since the thoughts of which I am aware do not mean anything, |
| W1:53.2 | Since the thoughts of which I am aware do not mean anything, the | world which pictures them can have no meaning. What is producing this |
| W1:53.2 | which pictures them can have no meaning. What is producing this | world is insane, and so is what it produces. Reality is not insane, |
| W1:53.2 | real thoughts as well as insane ones. I can therefore see a real | world if I look to my real thoughts as my guide for seeing. |
| W1:53.3 | [12] I am upset because I see a meaningless | world. Insane thoughts are upsetting. They produce a world in which |
| W1:53.3 | a meaningless world. Insane thoughts are upsetting. They produce a | world in which there is no order anywhere. Only chaos rules a world |
| W1:53.3 | a world in which there is no order anywhere. Only chaos rules a | world which represents chaotic thinking, and chaos has no laws. I |
| W1:53.3 | thinking, and chaos has no laws. I cannot live in peace in such a | world. I am grateful that this world is not real and that I need not |
| W1:53.3 | I cannot live in peace in such a world. I am grateful that this | world is not real and that I need not see it at all unless I choose |
| W1:53.4 | [13] A meaningless | world engenders fear. The totally insane engenders fear because it is |
| W1:53.4 | is dependable. It holds out no safety and no hope. But such a | world is not real. I have given it the illusion of reality, and have |
| W1:53.4 | in reality. In choosing this, I will escape all the effects of the | world of fear because I am acknowledging that it does not exist. |
| W1:53.5 | [14] God did not create a meaningless | world. How can a meaningless world exist if God did not create it? He |
| W1:53.5 | [14] God did not create a meaningless world. How can a meaningless | world exist if God did not create it? He is the Source of all |
| W1:53.6 | which tell me where I am and what I am. The fact that I see a | world in which there is suffering and loss and death shows me that I |
| W1:54.2 | because all thoughts have power. They will either make a false | world or lead me to the real one. But thoughts cannot be without |
| W1:54.2 | me to the real one. But thoughts cannot be without effects. As the | world I see arises from my thinking errors, so will the real world |
| W1:54.2 | As the world I see arises from my thinking errors, so will the real | world rise before my eyes as I let my errors be corrected. My |
| W1:54.3 | I would not exist, because life is thought. Let me look on the | world I see as the representation of my own state of mind. I know |
| W1:54.3 | I know that my state of mind can change. And so I also know the | world I see can change as well. |
| W1:54.4 | of my seeing. If I have no private thoughts, I cannot see a private | world. Even the mad idea of separation had to be shared before it |
| W1:54.4 | of separation had to be shared before it could form the basis of the | world I see. Yet that sharing was a sharing of nothing. I can also |
| W1:54.4 | so my real thoughts awaken the real thoughts in them. And the | world my real thoughts show me will dawn on their sight as well as |
| W1:54.6 | I would look upon the witnesses that show me the thinking of the | world has been changed. I would behold the proof that what has been |
| W1:54.6 | weeping, and abundance to replace loss. I would look upon the real | world, and let it teach me that my will and the Will of God are one. |
| W1:55.3 | [22] What I see is a form of vengeance. The | world I see is hardly the representation of loving thoughts. It is a |
| W1:55.3 | picture. My loving thoughts will save me from this perception of the | world and give me the peace God intended me to have. |
| W1:55.4 | [23] I can escape from the | world by giving up attack thoughts. Herein lies my salvation, and |
| W1:55.4 | and nowhere else. Without attack thoughts I could not see a | world of attack. As forgiveness allows love to return to my |
| W1:55.4 | As forgiveness allows love to return to my awareness, I will see a | world of peace and safety and joy. It is this I choose to see in |
| W1:55.5 | I think are my best interests would merely bind me closer to the | world of illusions. I am willing to follow the Guide God has given me |
| W1:55.6 | to use everyone and everything. It is this that I believe the | world is for. Therefore I do not recognize its real purpose. The |
| W1:55.6 | I do not recognize its real purpose. The purpose I have given the | world has led to a frightening picture of it. Let me open my mind to |
| W1:56.2 | me. All my hopes and wishes and plans appear to be at the mercy of a | world I cannot control. Yet perfect security and complete fulfillment |
| W1:56.2 | I have tried to give my inheritance away in exchange for the | world I see. But God has kept my inheritance safe for me. My own real |
| W1:56.3 | what I think I am, I realize that vision is my greatest need. The | world I see attests to the fearful nature of the self-image I have |
| W1:56.3 | will surely be given me. And with this vision, I will look upon the | world and upon myself with charity and love. |
| W1:56.4 | [28] Above all else I want to see differently. The | world I see holds my fearful self-image in place, and guarantees its |
| W1:56.4 | self-image in place, and guarantees its continuance. While I see the | world as I see it now, truth cannot enter my awareness. I would let |
| W1:56.4 | truth cannot enter my awareness. I would let the door behind this | world be opened for me that I may look past it to the world that |
| W1:56.4 | behind this world be opened for me that I may look past it to the | world that reflects the Love of God. |
| W1:57.2 | [31] I am not the victim of the | world I see. How can I be the victim of a world that can be |
| W1:57.2 | I am not the victim of the world I see. How can I be the victim of a | world that can be completely undone if I so choose? My chains are |
| W1:57.2 | open. I can leave it simply by walking out. Nothing holds me in this | world. Only my wish to stay keeps me a prisoner. I would give up my |
| W1:57.3 | [32] I have invented the | world I see. I made up the prison in which I see myself. All I need |
| W1:57.4 | [33] There is another way of looking at the | world. Since the purpose of the world is not the one I ascribed to |
| W1:57.4 | is another way of looking at the world. Since the purpose of the | world is not the one I ascribed to it, there must be another way of |
| W1:57.4 | upside down, and my thoughts are the opposite of truth. I see the | world as a prison for God's Son. It must be, then, that the world is |
| W1:57.4 | see the world as a prison for God's Son. It must be, then, that the | world is really a place where he can be set free. I would look upon |
| W1:57.4 | is really a place where he can be set free. I would look upon the | world as it is, and see it as a place where the Son of God finds his |
| W1:57.5 | [34] I could see peace instead of this. When I see the | world as a place of freedom, I will realize that it reflects the laws |
| W1:57.6 | mind is part of God's. I am very holy. As I share the peace of the | world with my brothers, I begin to understand that this peace comes |
| W1:57.6 | to understand that this peace comes from deep within myself. The | world I look upon has taken on the light of my forgiveness and shines |
| W1:58.2 | everything I see. From my holiness does the perception of the real | world come. Having forgiven, I no longer see myself as guilty. I can |
| W1:58.2 | truth about me. Seen through understanding eyes, the holiness of the | world is all I see, for I can picture only the thoughts I hold about |
| W1:58.3 | [37] My holiness blesses the | world. The perception of my holiness does not bless me alone. |
| W1:58.3 | my holiness. As I recognize my holiness, so does the holiness of the | world shine forth for everyone to see. |
| W1:58.5 | my salvation. It is also recognizing the salvation of the | world. Once I have accepted my holiness, nothing can make me afraid. |
| W1:58.5 | share in my understanding, which is the gift of God to me and to the | world. |
| W1:59.5 | God is the Light in which I see. Let me welcome vision and the happy | world it will show me. |
| W1:60.4 | [48] There is nothing to fear. How safe the | world will look to me when I can see it! It will not look anything |
| W1:60.4 | in everyone my dearest Friend. What could there be to fear in a | world which I have forgiven and which has forgiven me? |
| W1:60.6 | am sustained by His Love. As I open my eyes, His love lights up the | world for me to see. As I forgive, His love reminds me that His Son |
| W1:60.6 | His love reminds me that His Son is sinless. And as I look upon the | world with the vision He has given me, I remember that I am His Son. |
| W1:61.1 | Who is the light of the | world except God's Son? This, then, is merely a statement of the |
| W1:61.2 | It is not humility to insist that you cannot be the light of the | world if that is the function God assigned to you. It is only |
| W1:61.6 | I am the light of the | world. That is my only function. That is why I am here. |
| W1:61.10 | You are the light of the | world. God has built His plan for the salvation of His Son on you. |
| W1:62.1 | It is your forgiveness that will bring the | world of darkness to the light. It is your forgiveness that lets you |
| W1:62.1 | see. Forgiveness is the demonstration that you are the light of the | world. Through your forgiveness does the truth about yourself return |
| W1:62.2 | Illusions about yourself and the | world are one. That is why all forgiveness is a gift to yourself. |
| W1:62.6 | Forgiveness is my function as the light of the | world. I would fulfill my function that I may be happy. |
| W1:63.2 | You are indeed the light of the | world with such a function. The Son of God looks to you for his |
| W1:63.4 | The light of the | world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. I am the |
| W1:63.4 | I am the means God has appointed for the salvation of the | world. |
| W1:64.1 | of saying, “Let me not wander into temptation.” The purpose of the | world you see is to obscure your function of forgiveness and provide |
| W1:64.2 | therefore He sees another purpose in them. To the Holy Spirit, the | world is a place where you learn to forgive yourself what you think |
| W1:64.3 | our last few lessons, your function here is to be the light of the | world, a function given you by God. It is only the arrogance of the |
| W1:64.9 | remember the crucial importance of your function to you and to the | world. |
| W1:64.12 | This is the | world it is my function to save. |
| W1:65.1 | in which you can take your rightful place among the saviors of the | world. This is the only way in which you can say and mean, “My only |
| W1:67.1 | statement of what you are. This is why you are the light of the | world. This is why God appointed you as the world's savior. This is |
| W1:68.9 | as completely at peace with everyone and everything, safe in a | world which protects you and loves you and which you love in return. |
| W1:69.1 | conceal. Because your grievances are hiding the light of the | world in you, everyone stands in darkness, and you beside him. But as |
| W1:69.1 | you when you were in hell. He is your brother in the light of the | world which saves you both. |
| W1:69.2 | are literally attempting to get in touch with the salvation of the | world. We are trying to see past the veil of darkness that keeps it |
| W1:69.6 | the importance of what you are trying to do for yourself and the | world, try to settle down in perfect stillness, remembering only how |
| W1:69.9 | remind yourself that your grievances are hiding the light of the | world from your awareness. Remind yourself also that you are not |
| W1:69.10 | My grievances hide the light of the | world in me. I cannot see what I have hidden. Yet I want to let it be |
| W1:69.10 | let it be revealed to me for my salvation and the salvation of the | world. |
| W1:69.12 | If I hold this grievance, the light of the | world will be hidden from me, |
| W1:70.14 | charge of your salvation. You are in charge of the salvation of the | world. Say, then: |
| W1:72.8 | This is the universal belief of the | world you see. Some hate the body and try to hurt and humiliate it. |
| W1:73.1 | at all. Its wishes are not idle in the sense that they can make a | world of illusions in which your belief can be very strong. But they |
| W1:73.2 | Idle wishes and grievances are partners or co-makers in picturing the | world you see. The wishes of the ego gave rise to it, and the ego's |
| W1:73.3 | and forth and grievances increase with each exchange. Can such a | world have been created by the will the Son of God shares with his |
| W1:73.3 | His Son? Creation is the will of Both together. Would God create a | world that kills Himself? |
| W1:73.4 | Today we will try once more to reach the | world that is in accordance with your will. The light is in it |
| W1:73.5 | Yet the light which shines upon this | world reflects your will, and so it must be in you that we will look |
| W1:73.5 | so it must be in you that we will look for it. Your picture of the | world can only mirror what is within. The source of neither light nor |
| W1:73.5 | without. Grievances darken your mind, and you look out on a darkened | world. Forgiveness lifts the darkness, reasserts your will, and lets |
| W1:73.5 | lifts the darkness, reasserts your will, and lets you look upon a | world of light. |
| W1:75.2 | of light begins for you and everyone. It is a new era in which a new | world is born. The old one has left no trace upon it in its passing. |
| W1:75.2 | has left no trace upon it in its passing. Today we see a different | world because the light has come. |
| W1:75.3 | No shadows from the past remain to darken our sight and hide the | world forgiveness offers us. Today we will accept the new world as |
| W1:75.3 | hide the world forgiveness offers us. Today we will accept the new | world as what we want to see. We will be given what we desire. We |
| W1:75.4 | Our longer practice periods will be devoted to looking at the | world which our forgiveness shows us. This is what we want to see, |
| W1:75.4 | this. Our single purpose makes our goal inevitable. Today the real | world rises before us in gladness, to be seen at last. Sight is given |
| W1:75.5 | We do not see the ego's shadow on the | world today. We see the light, and in it we see Heaven's reflection |
| W1:75.5 | see the light, and in it we see Heaven's reflection lie across the | world. Begin the longer practice periods by telling yourself the glad |
| W1:75.6 | The light has come. I have forgiven the | world. |
| W1:75.7 | and clean of every concept you have made. You have forgiven the | world today. You can look upon it now as if you never saw it before. |
| W1:75.8 | The light has come. I have forgiven the | world. |
| W1:75.9 | forgiving. Believe He will not fail you now. You have forgiven the | world. He will be with you as you watch and wait. He will show you |
| W1:75.9 | for Him. He will be there. The light has come. You have forgiven the | world. |
| W1:75.10 | trust in Him. Tell yourself you wait in certainty to look upon the | world He promised you. From this time forth you will see differently. |
| W1:75.10 | will see differently. Today the light has come. And you will see the | world that has been promised you since time began, and in which is |
| W1:75.12 | The light has come. I have forgiven the | world. |
| W1:75.15 | we celebrate the beginning of your vision and the sight of the real | world which has come to replace the unforgiven world you thought was |
| W1:75.15 | the sight of the real world which has come to replace the unforgiven | world you thought was real. |
| W1:76.11 | this, and realize how foolish are the laws you thought upheld the | world you thought you saw. Then listen further. He will tell you |
| W1:77.3 | they belong to you. You have been promised full release from the | world you made. You have been assured that the Kingdom of God is |
| W1:77.4 | the rights of everyone. Miracles do not obey the laws of this | world. They merely follow from the laws of God. |
| W1:77.5 | your request is granted. You have asked for the salvation of the | world and for your own. You have requested that you be given the |
| W1:78.4 | him; we will not look upon our grievances. So is the seeing of the | world reversed, as we look out toward truth, away from fear. |
| W1:78.11 | the miracle of love the Holy Spirit showed you in their place. The | world and Heaven join in thanking you, for not one thought of God but |
| W1:78.11 | not one thought of God but must rejoice as you are saved and all the | world with you. |
| W1:79.1 | recognize that it has been solved. This is the situation of the | world. The problem of separation, which is really the only problem, |
| W1:79.2 | Everyone in this | world seems to have his own special problems. Yet they are all the |
| W1:79.4 | is the temptation to keep the problem of separation unsolved. The | world seems to present you with a vast number of problems, each |
| W1:79.5 | No one could solve all the problems the | world appears to hold. They seem to be on so many levels, in such |
| W1:81.2 | [61] I am the light of the | world. How holy am I, who have been given the function of lighting up |
| W1:81.2 | How holy am I, who have been given the function of lighting up the | world! Let me be still before my holiness. In its calm light, let all |
| W1:81.4 | Let me not obscure the light of the | world in me. Let the light of the world shine through this |
| W1:81.4 | Let me not obscure the light of the world in me. Let the light of the | world shine through this appearance. This shadow will vanish before |
| W1:81.5 | [62] Forgiveness is my function as the light of the | world. It is through accepting my function that I will see the light |
| W1:82.2 | [63] The light of the | world brings peace to every mind through my forgiveness. My |
| W1:82.2 | forgiveness. My forgiveness is the means by which the light of the | world finds expression through me. My forgiveness is the means by |
| W1:82.2 | forgiveness is the means by which I become aware of the light of the | world in me. My forgiveness is the means by which the world is |
| W1:82.2 | light of the world in me. My forgiveness is the means by which the | world is healed, together with myself. Let me, then, forgive the |
| W1:82.2 | the world is healed, together with myself. Let me, then, forgive the | world that it may be healed along with me. |
| W1:82.4 | peace extend from my mind to yours, [name]. I share the light of the | world with you, [name]. Through my forgiveness I can see this as it |
| W1:85.2 | [69] My grievances hide the light of the | world in me. My grievances show me what is not there and hide from me |
| W1:85.4 | Let me not use this as a block to sight. The light of the | world will shine all this away. I have no need for this. I want to |
| W1:92.7 | in love. It sees all others different from itself and nothing in the | world that it would share. It judges and condemns but does not love. |
| W1:94.1 | and entirely undone. You are as God created you. The sounds of this | world are still, the sights of this world disappear, and all the |
| W1:94.1 | created you. The sounds of this world are still, the sights of this | world disappear, and all the thoughts that this world ever held are |
| W1:94.1 | the sights of this world disappear, and all the thoughts that this | world ever held are wiped away forever by this one idea. Here is |
| W1:94.5 | This is the Self which never left its home in God to walk the | world uncertainly. This is the Self which knows no fear nor could |
| W1:95.17 | healed and whole, with power to lift the veil of darkness from the | world and let the light in you come through to teach the world the |
| W1:95.17 | from the world and let the light in you come through to teach the | world the truth about itself. You are One Self, in perfect harmony |
| W1:95.19 | We need your help, your little part in bringing happiness to all the | world. And Heaven looks to you in confidence that you will try today. |
| W1:95.20 | you are One Self, united with your Father, is a call to all the | world to be at one with you. To everyone you meet today be sure to |
| W1:96.14 | real thoughts you have denied, and let your mind go wandering in a | world of dreams, to find illusions in their place. Here are your |
| W1:97.6 | of each hour from your hands and carry them around this aching | world, where pain and misery appear to rule. He will not overlook one |
| W1:97.8 | the words the Holy Spirit speaks to you, and let them echo round the | world through Him: |
| W1:97.9 | safe and healed and whole, free to forgive, and free to save the | world. |
| W1:98.6 | you your full release from pain of every kind and joy the | world does not contain. You can exchange a little of your time for |
| W1:98.10 | with faith and confidence so strong and steady they will light the | world with hope and gladness. Do not lose one chance to be the glad |
| W1:98.10 | to be the glad receiver of His gifts, that you may give them to the | world today. |
| W1:99.9 | are words in which your freedom lies. Your Father loves you. All the | world of pain is not His Will. Forgive yourself the thought He wanted |
| W1:100.3 | Without your joy, His joy is incomplete. Without your smile, the | world cannot be saved. While you are sad, the light which God Himself |
| W1:100.3 | sad, the light which God Himself appointed as the means to save the | world is dim and lusterless. And no one laughs, because all laughter |
| W1:100.5 | what has been assigned to you by God. Thus do you fail to show the | world how great the happiness He wills for you. And so you do not |
| W1:100.6 | function here. If you are sad, your part is unfulfilled and all the | world is thus deprived of joy along with you. God asks that you be |
| W1:100.6 | deprived of joy along with you. God asks that you be happy so the | world can see how much He loves His Son and wills no sorrow rises to |
| W1:100.9 | Now let us try to find that joy which proves to us and all the | world God's Will for us. It is your function that you find it here |
| W1:100.11 | yourself you are essential to God's plan for the salvation of the | world. |
| W1:104.6 | Then lay aside the conflicts of the | world that offer other gifts and other goals made of illusions, |
| W1:104.6 | made of illusions, witnessed to by them, and sought for only in a | world of dreams. All this we lay aside and seek instead that which is |
| W1:105.1 | increase as we receive them. They are not like to the gifts the | world can give, in which the giver loses as he gives the gift; the |
| W1:105.3 | strange distortion of what giving means pervades all levels of the | world you see. It strips all meaning from the gifts you give and |
| W1:106.3 | Be not afraid today to circumvent the voices of the | world; walk lightly past their meaningless persuasion. Hear them not. |
| W1:106.7 | today, and you will hear a Voice Which will resound throughout the | world through you. The Bringer of all miracles has need that you |
| W1:106.10 | will begin the ministry for which you came and which will free the | world from thinking giving is a way to lose. And so the world becomes |
| W1:106.10 | free the world from thinking giving is a way to lose. And so the | world becomes ready to understand and to receive. |
| W1:106.12 | is kept through your receiving it to give away, so you can teach the | world what giving means by listening and learning it of Him. Do not |
| W1:107.5 | all the seeming difficulties and the doubts that the appearances the | world presents engender. They will merely blow away when truth |
| W1:107.13 | you peace so deep and tranquil that you will return to the familiar | world reluctantly. |
| W1:107.14 | And yet you will be glad to look again upon this | world. For you will bring with you the promise of the changes which |
| W1:107.14 | of the changes which the truth that goes with you will carry to the | world. They will increase with every gift you give of five small |
| W1:107.14 | you give of five small minutes, and the errors that surround the | world will be corrected as you let them be corrected in your mind. |
| W1:107.15 | “Truth will correct all errors in my mind,” you speak for all the | world and Him Who would release the world as He would set you free. |
| W1:107.15 | my mind,” you speak for all the world and Him Who would release the | world as He would set you free. |
| W1:109.2 | and everything there is. Here is the end of suffering for all the | world and everyone who ever came and yet will come to linger for a |
| W1:109.4 | This is the day of peace. You rest in God, and while the | world is torn by winds of hate, your rest remains completely |
| W1:109.7 | wings begins to sing, a stream long dry begins to flow again. The | world is born again each time you rest, and hourly remember that you |
| W1:109.7 | and hourly remember that you came to bring the peace of God into the | world that it might take its rest along with you. |
| W1:109.8 | With each five minutes that you rest today the | world is nearer waking. And the time when rest will be the only thing |
| W1:109.10 | Open the temple doors, and let them come from far across the | world, and near as well—your distant brothers and your closest |
| W1:110.1 | to time. For this one thought would be enough to save you and the | world if you believed that it is true. Its truth would mean that you |
| W1:110.2 | accepted as it is. It is enough to let time be the means for all the | world to learn escape from time and every change that time appears to |
| W1:110.3 | no thought but just this one to let redemption come to light the | world and free it from the past. |
| W1:110.5 | miracles, the great restorer of the truth to the awareness of the | world. Practice today's idea with gratitude. This is the truth that |
| W1:110.8 | within you Who is Christ in you, the Son of God and brother to the | world—the savior who has been forever saved, with power to save |
| W1:115.2 | is my only function here. My function here is to forgive the | world for all the errors I have made. For thus am I released from |
| W1:115.2 | errors I have made. For thus am I released from them with all the | world. |
| W1:115.3 | I am essential to the plan of God for the salvation of the | world. For He gave me His plan that I might save the world. |
| W1:115.3 | of the world. For He gave me His plan that I might save the | world. |
| W1:121.1 | the answer to your search for peace. Here is the key to meaning in a | world which seems to make no sense. Here is the way to safety in |
| W1:121.2 | it can spread its wings in peace and soar above the turmoil of the | world. The unforgiving mind is sad, without the hope of respite and |
| W1:121.4 | unforgiving mind sees no mistakes, but only sins. It looks upon the | world with sightless eyes and shrieks as it beholds its own |
| W1:121.5 | offer anything but more despair. Yet it regards its judgment of the | world as irreversible and does not see it has condemned itself to |
| W1:122.1 | of purpose, and a sense of worth and beauty that transcends the | world? Do you want care and safety and the warmth of sure protection |
| W1:122.3 | face of Christ from those who look with unforgiving eyes upon the | world. It lets you recognize the Son of God and clears your memory of |
| W1:122.6 | and plain, beyond deceit in its simplicity. All the complexities the | world has spun of fragile cobwebs disappear before the power and the |
| W1:122.7 | again. Accept salvation now. It is the gift of God and not the | world. The world can give no gifts of any value to a mind which has |
| W1:122.7 | Accept salvation now. It is the gift of God and not the world. The | world can give no gifts of any value to a mind which has received |
| W1:122.8 | Open your eyes today, and look upon a happy | world of safety and of peace. Forgiveness is the means by which it |
| W1:122.12 | Before the light you will receive today the | world will fade until it disappears, and you will see another world |
| W1:122.12 | the world will fade until it disappears, and you will see another | world arise you have no words to picture. Now we walk directly into |
| W1:122.13 | your gifts recede throughout the day, as you return again to meet a | world of shifting change and bleak appearances. Retain your gifts in |
| W1:123.5 | the thanks are yours as well. An unheard message will not save the | world, however mighty be the Voice that speaks, however loving may |
| W1:123.5 | who brings His Voice with you and let it echo round and round the | world. |
| W1:123.6 | you, and so they grow in power and in strength until they fill the | world with gladness and with gratitude. |
| W1:123.7 | to you in terms of years for every second, power to save the | world eons more quickly for your thanks to Him. |
| W1:123.8 | thanks for everything He gave His Son that he might rise above the | world remembering his Father and his Self. |
| W1:124.2 | point the way to truth, for God is our Companion as we walk the | world a little while. And those who come to follow us will recognize |
| W1:124.7 | Today we would experience ourselves at one with Him, so that the | world may share our recognition of reality. In our experience the |
| W1:124.7 | world may share our recognition of reality. In our experience the | world is freed; as we deny our separation from our Father, it is |
| W1:125.1 | Him today. No peace is possible until His Word is heard around the | world; until your mind, in quiet listening, accepts the message which |
| W1:125.1 | until your mind, in quiet listening, accepts the message which the | world must hear to usher in the quiet time of peace. |
| W1:125.2 | This | world will change through you. No other means can save it, for God's |
| W1:125.3 | cannot be judged. We stand apart from all the judgments which the | world has laid upon the Son of God. It knows him not. Today we will |
| W1:125.3 | the Son of God. It knows him not. Today we will not listen to the | world, but wait in silence for the Word of God. |
| W1:125.4 | His Voice would give to you His holy Word to spread across the | world the tidings of salvation and the holy time of peace. We gather |
| W1:125.7 | for silence, give ten minutes set apart from listening to the | world and choose instead a gentle listening to the Word of God. He |
| W1:125.9 | this to let your practicing today lift you above the thinking of the | world and free your vision from the body's eyes. Only be still and |
| W1:126.1 | Today's idea, completely alien to the ego and the thinking of the | world, is crucial to the thought reversal which this course will |
| W1:126.8 | in the idea we practice for today, this is a day of glory for the | world. |
| W1:126.10 | In silence close your eyes upon the | world which does not understand forgiveness and seek sanctuary in the |
| W1:127.5 | No laws the | world obeys can help you grasp love's meaning. What the world |
| W1:127.5 | No laws the world obeys can help you grasp love's meaning. What the | world believes was made to hide love's meaning and to keep it dark |
| W1:127.5 | and to keep it dark and secret. There is not one principle the | world upholds but violates the truth of what love is, and what you |
| W1:127.5 | truth of what love is, and what you are as well. Seek not within the | world to find your Self. Love is not found in darkness and in death. |
| W1:127.7 | every law in which you now believe. Open your mind and rest. The | world that seems to hold you prisoner can be escaped by anyone who |
| W1:127.10 | The | world in infancy is newly born. And we will watch it grow in strength |
| W1:127.10 | to shed its blessing upon all who come to learn to cast aside the | world they thought was made in hate to be love's enemy. Now are they |
| W1:128.1 | The | world you see has nothing that you need to offer you, nothing that |
| W1:128.1 | No one but must accept this thought as true, if he would leave this | world behind and soar beyond its petty scope and little ways. |
| W1:128.2 | Each thing you value here is but a chain that binds you to the | world, and it will serve no other end but this. For everything must |
| W1:128.2 | a different purpose there. The only purpose worthy of your mind this | world contains is that you pass it by, without delaying to perceive |
| W1:128.2 | perceive some hope where there is none. Be you deceived no more. The | world you see has nothing that you want. |
| W1:128.4 | your progress to salvation, nor permit temptation to believe the | world has anything you want to hold you back. Nothing is here to |
| W1:128.5 | we practice letting go all thought of values we have given to the | world. We leave it free of purposes we gave its aspects and its |
| W1:128.5 | Thus do we lift the chains which bar the door to freedom from the | world and go beyond all little values and diminished goals. |
| W1:128.6 | Peace and be still a little while, and see how far you rise above the | world when you release your mind from chains and let it seek the |
| W1:128.7 | much as when you looked at it before. Your whole perspective on the | world will shift by just a little every time you let your mind escape |
| W1:128.7 | by just a little every time you let your mind escape its chains. The | world is not where it belongs. And you belong where it would be and |
| W1:128.7 | it would be and where it goes to rest when you release it from the | world. Your Guide is sure. Open your mind to Him. Be still and rest. |
| W1:128.8 | when you think you see some value in an aspect or an image of the | world, refuse to lay this chain upon your mind and tell yourself with |
| W1:128.9 | This will not tempt me to delay myself. The | world I see has nothing that I want. |
| W1:129.1 | the one we practiced yesterday. You cannot stop with the idea the | world is worthless, for unless you see that there is something else |
| W1:129.1 | you will only be depressed. Our emphasis is not on giving up the | world but on exchanging it for what is far more satisfying, filled |
| W1:129.1 | filled with joy, and capable of offering you peace. Think you this | world can offer that to you? |
| W1:129.2 | be worth a little time to think once more about the value of this | world. Perhaps you will concede there is no loss in letting go all |
| W1:129.2 | there is no loss in letting go all thought of value here. The | world you see is merciless indeed, unstable, cruel, unconcerned with |
| W1:129.2 | for a while. No lasting love is found, for none is here. This is the | world of time, where all things end. |
| W1:129.3 | Is it a loss to find a | world instead where losing is impossible, where love endures forever, |
| W1:129.5 | How far away from this are you who stay bound to this | world. And yet how near are you when you exchange it for the world |
| W1:129.5 | to this world. And yet how near are you when you exchange it for the | world you want. Now is the last step certain; now you stand an |
| W1:129.5 | Here can you but look forward, never back to see again the | world you do not want. Here is the world that comes to take its place |
| W1:129.5 | never back to see again the world you do not want. Here is the | world that comes to take its place as you unbind your mind from |
| W1:129.5 | to take its place as you unbind your mind from little things the | world sets forth to keep you prisoner there. Value them not, and they |
| W1:129.6 | What loss can be for you in choosing not to value nothingness? This | world holds nothing that you really want, but what you choose instead |
| W1:129.8 | Beyond this | world there is a world I want. I choose to see that world instead of |
| W1:129.8 | Beyond this world there is a | world I want. I choose to see that world instead of this, for here is |
| W1:129.8 | Beyond this world there is a world I want. I choose to see that | world instead of this, for here is nothing that I really want. |
| W1:129.9 | Then close your eyes upon the | world you see, and in the silent darkness watch the lights that are |
| W1:129.9 | and in the silent darkness watch the lights that are not of this | world light one by one until where one begins, another ends, losing |
| W1:129.10 | bend to you, to shine upon your eyelids as you rest beyond the | world of darkness. Here is light your eyes cannot behold. And yet |
| W1:129.12 | The | world I see has nothing that I want. Beyond this world there is a |
| W1:129.12 | The world I see has nothing that I want. Beyond this | world there is a world I want. |
| W1:129.12 | The world I see has nothing that I want. Beyond this world there is a | world I want. |
| W1:130.1 | to see, believing what you see is really there. No one can see a | world his mind has not accorded value. And no one can fail to look |
| W1:130.2 | what he does not want to have reality? And who can choose to see a | world of which he is afraid? Fear must make blind, for this its |
| W1:130.3 | What, then, can fear project upon the | world? What can be seen in darkness that is real? Truth is eclipsed |
| W1:130.4 | and the multitude of differences you believe make up the | world. They are not there. Love's enemy has made them up. Yet love |
| W1:130.6 | Today we will attempt no compromise where none is possible. The | world you see is proof you have already made a choice as |
| W1:130.8 | Begin your searching for the other | world by asking for a strength beyond your own, and recognize what it |
| W1:130.8 | five minutes emptying your hands of all the petty treasures of this | world. You wait for God to help you as you say: |
| W1:130.9 | Let me accept the strength God offers me and see no value in this | world that I may find my freedom and deliverance. |
| W1:131.4 | you came, and you will surely do the thing you came for. But the | world cannot dictate the goal for which you search unless you give it |
| W1:131.4 | Otherwise, you still are free to choose a goal that lies beyond the | world and every worldly thought and one which comes to you from an |
| W1:131.8 | Heaven remains your one alternative to this strange | world you made and all its ways—its shifting patterns and uncertain |
| W1:131.11 | three times today, and we will ask to see the rising of the real | world to replace the foolish images that we held dear, with true |
| W1:131.13 | I ask to see a different | world and think a different kind of thought from those I made. The |
| W1:131.13 | world and think a different kind of thought from those I made. The | world I seek I did not make alone. The thoughts I want to think are |
| W1:131.14 | your mind and see, although your eyes are closed, the senseless | world you think is real. Review the thoughts as well which are |
| W1:131.14 | real. Review the thoughts as well which are compatible with such a | world and which you think are true. Then let them go, and sink below |
| W1:131.16 | of surprise, perhaps, will make you pause before you realize the | world you see before you in the light reflects the truth you knew and |
| W1:131.17 | find the goal of all your searching here and all the seeking of the | world, which ends together as you pass beyond the door. |
| W1:131.18 | is set by Heaven Itself to be a time of grace for you and for the | world. If you forget this happy fact, remind yourself with this: |
| W1:132.1 | What keeps the | world in chains but your beliefs? And what can save the world except |
| W1:132.1 | keeps the world in chains but your beliefs? And what can save the | world except your Self? Belief is powerful indeed. The thoughts you |
| W1:132.1 | are as strong in their effects as is the truth. A madman thinks the | world he sees is real and does not doubt it. Nor can he be swayed by |
| W1:132.3 | The present now remains the only time. Here in the present is the | world set free. For as you let the past be lifted and release the |
| W1:132.3 | future from your ancient fears, you find escape and give it to the | world. |
| W1:132.4 | You have enslaved the | world with all your fears, your doubts and miseries, your pain and |
| W1:132.4 | because you hold the bitter thought of death within your mind. The | world is nothing in itself. Your mind must give it meaning. And what |
| W1:132.5 | Perhaps you think you did not make the | world but came unwillingly to what was made already, hardly waiting |
| W1:132.5 | you found exactly what you looked for when you came. There is no | world apart from what you wish, and herein lies your ultimate |
| W1:132.5 | release. Change but your mind on what you want to see, and all the | world must change accordingly. |
| W1:132.6 | lesson for today. It is not pride which tells you that you made the | world you see and that it changes as you change your mind. But it is |
| W1:132.6 | change your mind. But it is pride that argues you have come into a | world quite separate from yourself, impervious to what you think, and |
| W1:132.7 | There is no | world! This is the central thought the course attempts to teach. Not |
| W1:132.8 | healing is the gift of those who are prepared to learn there is no | world and can accept the lesson now. Their readiness will bring the |
| W1:132.8 | rise to teach it. Others find it in experience that is not of this | world, which shows them that the world does not exist because what |
| W1:132.8 | in experience that is not of this world, which shows them that the | world does not exist because what they behold must be the truth, and |
| W1:132.8 | they behold must be the truth, and yet it clearly contradicts the | world. And some will find it in this course and in the exercises that |
| W1:132.9 | Today's idea is true because the | world does not exist. And if it is indeed your own imagining, then |
| W1:132.10 | and no time that can bring change to your eternal state. How can a | world of time and place exist if you remain as God created you? |
| W1:132.11 | another way of saying that to know your Self is the salvation of the | world? To free the world from every kind of pain is but to change |
| W1:132.11 | that to know your Self is the salvation of the world? To free the | world from every kind of pain is but to change your mind about |
| W1:132.11 | kind of pain is but to change your mind about yourself. There is no | world apart from your ideas because ideas leave not their source, and |
| W1:132.11 | ideas because ideas leave not their source, and you maintain the | world within your mind in thought. |
| W1:132.12 | does not share His timelessness and love. Are these inherent in the | world you see? Does it create like Him? Unless it does, it is not |
| W1:132.12 | it does, it is not real and cannot be at all. If you are real, the | world you see is false, for God's creation is unlike the world in |
| W1:132.12 | real, the world you see is false, for God's creation is unlike the | world in every way. And as it was His thought by which you were |
| W1:132.13 | Release the | world! Your real creations wait for this release to give you |
| W1:132.14 | There is no | world because it is a thought apart from God and made to separate the |
| W1:132.14 | away a part of God Himself and thus destroy His wholeness. Can a | world which comes from this idea be real? Can it be anywhere? Deny |
| W1:132.14 | accept the truth. Deny you are a shadow briefly laid upon a dying | world. Release your mind, and you will look upon a world released. |
| W1:132.14 | laid upon a dying world. Release your mind, and you will look upon a | world released. |
| W1:132.15 | Today our purpose is to free the | world from all the idle thoughts we ever held about it and about all |
| W1:132.15 | us along with them. And we who are as He created us would loose the | world this day from every one of our illusions that we may be free. |
| W1:132.17 | I who remain as God created me would loose the | world from all I thought it was. For I am real because the world is |
| W1:132.17 | loose the world from all I thought it was. For I am real because the | world is not, and I would know my own reality. |
| W1:132.18 | no strain, and let your mind in quietness be changed so that the | world is freed along with you. |
| W1:132.19 | need not realize that healing comes to many brothers far across the | world as well as to the ones you see near by as you send out these |
| W1:132.19 | the ones you see near by as you send out these thoughts to bless the | world. But you will sense your own release, although you may not |
| W1:132.20 | the day, increase the freedom sent through your ideas to all the | world, and say whenever you are tempted to deny the power of your |
| W1:132.21 | I loose the | world from all I thought it was and choose my own reality instead. |
| W1:133.2 | to bodily concerns, to things you buy, to eminence as valued by the | world, you ask for sorrow, not for happiness. This course does not |
| W1:133.2 | does not try to substitute utopian ideas for satisfactions which the | world contains. |
| W1:133.3 | There are no satisfactions in the | world. Today we list the real criteria by which to test all things |
| W1:134.7 | is the only thing that stands for truth in the illusions of the | world. It sees their nothingness and looks right through the thousand |
| W1:134.10 | is. Forgiveness stands between illusions and the truth, between the | world you see and that which lies beyond, between the hell of guilt |
| W1:134.13 | Forgiveness must be practiced, for the | world cannot perceive its meaning nor provide a guide to teach you |
| W1:134.13 | a guide to teach you its beneficence. There is no thought in all the | world which leads to any understanding of the laws it follows nor the |
| W1:134.13 | it follows nor the thought which it reflects. It is as alien to the | world as is your own reality. And yet it joins your mind with the |
| W1:134.17 | them, but realize that you are using his “offenses” but to save the | world from all ideas of sin. Briefly consider all the evil things you |
| W1:135.3 | The | world is based on this insane belief. And all its structures, all its |
| W1:135.3 | all serve but to preserve its sense of threat. For no one walks the | world in armature but must have terror striking at his heart. |
| W1:135.21 | will join their light with yours, and it will be increased until the | world is lighted up with joy. And gladly will our brothers lay aside |
| W1:135.28 | that comes to you without your planning. Learn today. And all the | world will take this giant stride and celebrate your Eastertime with |
| W1:136.8 | for an instant truth arises in your own deluded mind and all your | world appears to totter and prepare to fall. Now are you sick that |
| W1:137.2 | by a solid wall of sickened flesh which it cannot surmount. The | world obeys the laws that sickness serves, but healing operates apart |
| W1:137.5 | but removes illusions that have not occurred. Just as the real | world will arise to take the place of what has never been at all, |
| W1:137.6 | anti-Christ becomes more powerful than Christ to those who dream the | world is real. The body seems to be more solid and more stable than |
| W1:137.7 | Just as forgiveness shines away all sin and the real | world will occupy the place of what you made, so healing must replace |
| W1:137.9 | Healing, forgiveness, and the glad exchange of all the | world of sorrow for a world where sadness cannot enter, are the means |
| W1:137.9 | forgiveness, and the glad exchange of all the world of sorrow for a | world where sadness cannot enter, are the means by which the Holy |
| W1:137.10 | recognize them all, nor realize how great your offering to all the | world when you let healing come to you. But you are never healed |
| W1:137.13 | is to let our minds be healed that we may carry healing to the | world, exchanging curse for blessing, pain for joy, and separation |
| W1:137.15 | healed, I am not healed alone. And I would share my healing with the | world, that sickness may be banished from the mind of God's one Son, |
| W1:138.1 | In this | world, Heaven is a choice because here we believe there are |
| W1:138.2 | creation cannot enter here unless it is reflected in some form the | world can understand. Truth cannot come where it could only be |
| W1:138.6 | In this insanely complicated | world, Heaven appears to take the form of choice rather than merely |
| W1:139.6 | is the depth of madness. Yet it is the universal question of the | world. What does this prove except the world is mad? Why share its |
| W1:139.6 | the universal question of the world. What does this prove except the | world is mad? Why share its madness in the sad belief that what is |
| W1:139.6 | in the sad belief that what is universal here is true? Nothing the | world believes is true. It is a place whose purpose is to be a home |
| W1:139.13 | let your mind be cleared of all the foolish cobwebs which the | world would weave around the holy Son of God. And learn the fragile |
| W1:140.1 | Cure is a word that cannot be applied to any remedy the | world accepts as beneficial. What the world perceives as therapeutic |
| W1:140.1 | be applied to any remedy the world accepts as beneficial. What the | world perceives as therapeutic is but what will make the body |
| W1:140.3 | dreams the Holy Spirit brings are different from the dreaming of the | world, where one can merely dream he is awake. The dreams forgiveness |
| W1:140.7 | to what is sick so that it can be cured. There is no remedy the | world provides that can effect a change in anything. The mind that |
| W1:R4.12 | and of happiness for us and through our faithfulness restored the | world from darkness to the light, from grief to joy, from pain to |
| W1:144.2 | [128] The | world I see has nothing that I want. |
| W1:145.1 | [129] Beyond this | world there is a world I want. |
| W1:145.1 | [129] Beyond this world there is a | world I want. |
| W1:146.2 | [132] I loose the | world from all I thought it was. |
| W1:151.2 | You do not seem to doubt the | world you see. You do not really question what is shown you through |
| W1:151.3 | witness never falser was than this. But how else do you judge the | world you see? You place pathetic faith in what your eyes and ears |
| W1:151.10 | be judge as well of everything that seems to happen to you in this | world. His lessons will enable you to bridge the gap between |
| W1:151.11 | in change, the pure in sin, and only Heaven's blessing on the | world. |
| W1:151.12 | is not a part of anything you see. It stands beyond the body and the | world, past every witness for unholiness, within the Holy, holy as |
| W1:151.16 | your Eastertide. And so you lay the gift of snow-white lilies on the | world, replacing witnesses to sin and death. Through your |
| W1:151.16 | witnesses to sin and death. Through your transfiguration is the | world redeemed and joyfully released from guilt. Now do we lift our |
| W1:151.17 | remember Him Who is salvation and deliverance. As we give thanks the | world unites with us and happily accepts our holy thoughts which |
| W1:151.17 | made pure. Now has our ministry begun at last, to carry round the | world the joyous news that truth has no illusions and the peace of |
| W1:152.1 | your wish, and nothing is omitted that you choose. Here is your | world, complete in all details. Here is its whole reality for you. |
| W1:152.6 | Is it not strange that you believe to think you made the | world you see is arrogance? God made it not. Of this you can be sure. |
| W1:152.6 | that must die? You but accuse Him of insanity, to think He made a | world where such things seem to have reality. He is not mad. Yet only |
| W1:152.6 | things seem to have reality. He is not mad. Yet only madness makes a | world like this. |
| W1:153.1 | You who feel threatened by this changing | world, its twists of fortune and its bitter jests, its brief |
| W1:153.1 | it merely lends to take away again, attend this lesson well. The | world provides no safety. It is rooted in attack and all its “gifts” |
| W1:153.2 | The | world gives rise but to defensiveness. For threat brings anger, anger |
| W1:153.4 | to be an idle dream, beyond the possible. The sense of threat the | world encourages is so much deeper and so far beyond the frenzy and |
| W1:153.7 | fearful image you believe you see at work in all the evils of the | world? What but illusions could defend you now, when it is but |
| W1:153.8 | play such childish games today. For our true purpose is to save the | world, and we would not exchange for foolishness the endless joy our |
| W1:153.9 | chosen purpose as our ministry extends its holy blessing through the | world. |
| W1:153.11 | teach what you have learned, salvation waits and darkness holds the | world in grim imprisonment. Nor will you learn that light has come to |
| W1:153.13 | to hope, abandoned by your Father, left alone in terror in a fearful | world made mad by sin and guilt, be happy now. That game is over. Now |
| W1:153.14 | the story ended. Let this day bring the last chapter closer to the | world that everyone may learn the tales he reads of terrifying |
| W1:153.16 | Sometimes we will forget. At other times the business of the | world will close on us, and we will be unable to withdraw a little |
| W1:153.18 | moment, even though your time is spent in offering salvation to the | world. Think you He will not make this possible for you who chose to |
| W1:153.18 | for you who chose to carry out His plan for the salvation of the | world and yours? |
| W1:154.4 | Voice of God of Father and of Son that sets apart salvation from the | world. It is this Voice which speaks of laws the world does not obey, |
| W1:154.4 | salvation from the world. It is this Voice which speaks of laws the | world does not obey, which promises salvation from all sin, with |
| W1:154.6 | the role of Heaven's messengers which sets them off from those the | world appoints. The messages which they deliver are intended first |
| W1:154.15 | The | world recedes as we light up our minds and realize these holy words |
| W1:155.1 | There is a way of living in the | world that is not here, although it seems to be. You do not change |
| W1:155.1 | forehead is serene; your eyes are quiet. And the ones who walk the | world as you do recognize their own. Yet those who have not yet |
| W1:155.2 | The | world is an illusion. Those who choose to come to it are seeking for |
| W1:155.4 | If truth demanded they give up the | world, it would appear to them as if it asked the sacrifice of |
| W1:155.4 | of something that is real. Many have chosen to renounce the | world while still believing its reality, and they have suffered from |
| W1:155.4 | not been released accordingly. Others have chosen nothing but the | world, and they have suffered from a sense of loss still deeper, |
| W1:155.13 | Your feet are safely set upon the way that leads the | world to God. Look not to ways which seem to lead you elsewhere. |
| W1:156.1 | this be true, how can you be apart from God? How could you walk the | world alone and separate from your Source? |
| W1:156.2 | nor be in parts uncertain and in others sure. You cannot walk the | world apart from God because you could not be without Him. He is what |
| W1:156.4 | a Light in you Which cannot die, Whose Presence is so holy that the | world is sanctified because of you. All things that live bring gifts |
| W1:156.6 | As you step back, the Light in you steps forward and encompasses the | world. It heralds not the end of sin in punishment and death. In |
| W1:156.9 | I walk with God in perfect holiness. I light the | world, I light my mind and all the minds which God created one with |
| W1:157.4 | in still anticipation and in quiet joy wherein you quickly leave the | world behind. |
| W1:157.6 | now to bring the vision of what you experience this day to light the | world. We cannot give experience like this directly. Yet it leaves a |
| W1:157.6 | that he may come the sooner to the same experience in which the | world is quietly forgot and Heaven is remembered for a while. |
| W1:157.7 | increases and all goals but this become of little worth, the | world to which you will return becomes a little closer to the end of |
| W1:158.2 | You have received all this. No one who walks the | world but has received it. It is not this knowledge which you give, |
| W1:158.6 | Here is the joining of the | world of doubt and shadows made with the intangible. Here is a quiet |
| W1:158.6 | shadows made with the intangible. Here is a quiet place within the | world made holy by forgiveness and by love. Here are all |
| W1:158.8 | all who would achieve it. It requires but the recognition that the | world cannot give anything that faintly can compare with this in |
| W1:159.1 | you have it in your own possession. Here the laws of Heaven and the | world agree. But here they also separate. The world believes that to |
| W1:159.1 | laws of Heaven and the world agree. But here they also separate. The | world believes that to possess a thing, it must be kept. Salvation |
| W1:159.3 | been kept obscure. Christ's vision pictures Heaven, for it sees a | world so like to Heaven that what God created perfect can be mirrored |
| W1:159.3 | God created perfect can be mirrored there. The darkened glass the | world presents can show but twisted images in broken parts. The real |
| W1:159.3 | world presents can show but twisted images in broken parts. The real | world pictures Heaven's innocence. |
| W1:159.5 | worlds. And in its power can you safely trust to carry you from this | world into one made holy by forgiveness. Things which seem quite |
| W1:159.7 | Here does the | world remember what was lost when it was made. For here it is |
| W1:159.8 | roots. This is their home. They can be brought from here back to the | world, but they can never grow in its unnourishing and shallow soil. |
| W1:159.9 | lilies do not leave their home when they are carried back into the | world. Their roots remain. They do not leave their source, but carry |
| W1:159.9 | leave their source, but carry its beneficence with them and turn the | world into a garden like the one they came from and to which they go |
| W1:159.10 | way He has established. Christ has dreamed the dream of a forgiven | world. It is His gift whereby a sweet transition can be made from |
| W1:160.2 | so foreign to the truth he speaks a different language, looks upon a | world truth does not know, and understands what truth regards as |
| W1:160.9 | Today we offer thanks that Christ has come to search the | world for what belongs to Him. His vision sees no strangers, but |
| W1:161.1 | and anger had prevailed before. Here is Atonement made complete, the | world passed safely by, and Heaven now restored. Here is the answer |
| W1:161.2 | fragments of the whole, for only thus could it invent the partial | world you see. The purpose of all seeing is to show you what you wish |
| W1:162.1 | This single thought, held firmly in the mind, would save the | world. From time to time we will repeat it, as we reach another stage |
| W1:162.1 | words are sacred, for they are the words God gave in answer to the | world you made. By them it disappears, and all things seen within its |
| W1:162.2 | might. They are the trumpet of awakening that sounds around the | world. The dead awake in answer to its call. And those who live and |
| W1:162.3 | sleeps and wakens with the truth before him always. He will save the | world because he gives the world what he receives each time he |
| W1:162.3 | truth before him always. He will save the world because he gives the | world what he receives each time he practices the words of truth. |
| W1:162.4 | places all His gifts and all His Love to be distributed to all the | world, increased in giving, kept complete because its sharing is |
| W1:162.5 | for who could cherish sin when holiness like this has blessed the | world? Who could despair when perfect joy is yours, available to all |
| W1:162.6 | night, and darkness is no more. The light is come today to bless the | world, for you have recognized the Son of God, and in your |
| W1:164.1 | as represented there. He hears the sounds the senseless busy | world engenders, yet He hears them faintly, for beyond them all He |
| W1:164.2 | The | world fades easily away before His sight. Its sounds grow dim. A |
| W1:164.2 | before His sight. Its sounds grow dim. A melody from far beyond the | world increasingly is more and more distinct—an ancient call to |
| W1:164.3 | hears. How quiet is the time you give to spend with Him beyond the | world. How easily are all your seeming sins forgot and all your |
| W1:164.3 | grief laid by, for sights and sounds which come from nearer than the | world are clear to you who will today accept the gifts He gives. |
| W1:164.4 | There is a silence into which the | world cannot intrude. There is an ancient peace you carry in your |
| W1:164.5 | of judgment left to Him Who judges true. And in His judgment will a | world unfold in perfect innocence before your eyes. Now will you see |
| W1:164.6 | Brothers, this day is sacred to the | world. Your vision, given you from far beyond all things within the |
| W1:164.6 | world. Your vision, given you from far beyond all things within the | world, looks back on them in a new light. And what you see becomes |
| W1:164.6 | new light. And what you see becomes the healing and salvation of the | world. The valuable and valueless are both perceived and recognized |
| W1:164.7 | We will receive but what is given us from judgment made beyond the | world. Our practicing today becomes our gift of thankfulness for our |
| W1:164.7 | our own. We stand forgiven in the sight of Christ, with all the | world forgiven in our own. |
| W1:164.8 | We bless the | world as we behold it in the light in which our Savior looks on us |
| W1:164.8 | of salvation. He has need of your most holy mind to save the | world. |
| W1:164.9 | you receiving your consent and your acceptance. We can change the | world if you acknowledge them. You may not see the value your |
| W1:164.9 | them. You may not see the value your acceptance gives the | world. But this you surely want—you can exchange all suffering for |
| W1:165.1 | What makes this | world seem real except your own denial of the truth which lies |
| W1:165.6 | to heal as you were healed. For now you are among the saviors of the | world. Your destiny lies there and nowhere else. Would God consent to |
| W1:166.2 | Here is the paradox that underlies the making of the | world. This world is not the Will of God, and so it is not real. Yet |
| W1:166.2 | Here is the paradox that underlies the making of the world. This | world is not the Will of God, and so it is not real. Yet those who |
| W1:166.2 | He wills. Impossible indeed, but every mind that looks upon the | world and judges it as certain, solid, trustworthy, and true believes |
| W1:166.3 | their presence, contradict the truth, and suffer to preserve the | world he made. |
| W1:166.4 | Here is the only safety he believes that he can find. Without the | world he made is he an outcast, homeless and afraid. He does not |
| W1:166.5 | God is with him, and a treasure his so great that everything the | world contains is valueless before its magnitude. |
| W1:166.15 | He has shared His joy with you. And now you go to share it with the | world. |
| W1:167.2 | In this | world there appears to be a state that is life's opposite. You call |
| W1:168.4 | God loves His Son. Request Him now to give the means by which this | world will disappear, and vision first will come with knowledge but |
| W1:168.4 | an instant later. For in grace you see a light that covers all the | world in love and watch fear disappear from every face as hearts rise |
| W1:169.1 | It is the world's most lofty aspiration, for it leads beyond the | world entirely. It is past learning yet the goal of learning, for |
| W1:169.2 | Grace is acceptance of the Love of God within a | world of seeming hate and fear. By grace alone the hate and fear are |
| W1:169.2 | are gone, for grace presents a state so opposite to everything the | world contains that those whose minds are lighted by the gift of |
| W1:169.2 | whose minds are lighted by the gift of grace cannot believe the | world of fear is real. |
| W1:169.6 | merely disappeared into His Father, as his Father has in him. The | world has never been at all. Eternity remains a constant state. |
| W1:169.9 | There is no need to further clarify what no one in the | world can understand. When revelation of your oneness comes, it will |
| W1:169.12 | a clear reflection of the unity he felt an instant back to bless the | world? How could you finally attain to it forever while a part of you |
| W1:169.14 | Our learning goal today does not exceed this prayer, yet in the | world, what could be more than what we ask this day of Him Who gives |
| W1:170.12 | with you. This time you leave it here. And you return to a new | world unburdened by its weight; beheld not in its sightless eyes but |
| W1:170.14 | in us for there is none in You. Your peace is ours. And we bless the | world with what we have received from You alone. We choose again and |
| W1:R5.11 | I need—that you will hear the words I speak and give them to the | world. You are my voice, my eyes, my feet, my hands, through which I |
| W1:R5.11 | are my voice, my eyes, my feet, my hands, through which I save the | world. The Self from Which I call to you is but your own. To Him we |
| W1:R5.12 | but an ancient truth we knew before illusion seemed to claim the | world. And we remind the world that it is free of all illusions every |
| W1:R5.12 | we knew before illusion seemed to claim the world. And we remind the | world that it is free of all illusions every time we say, |
| W1:181.9 | as our focus goes beyond mistakes, we will behold a wholly sinless | world. When seeing this is all we want to see, when this is all we |
| W1:181.9 | own as well. This will become the only thing we see reflected in the | world and in ourselves. |
| W1:181.10 | The | world which once proclaimed our sins becomes the proof that we are |
| W1:182.1 | This | world you seem to live in is not home to you. And somewhere in your |
| W1:182.3 | We speak today for everyone who walks this | world, for he is not at home. He goes uncertainly about in endless |
| W1:182.6 | unheard amid the grating sounds and harsh and rasping noises of the | world. Yet does He know that in you still abides His sure protection. |
| W1:182.7 | again where He does not belong and where He lives an outcast in a | world of alien thoughts. His patience has no limits. He will wait |
| W1:182.8 | When you are still an instant, when the | world recedes from you, when valueless ideas cease to have value in |
| W1:183.1 | identity. Your Father's Name reminds you who you are, even within a | world that does not know; even though you have not remembered it. |
| W1:183.3 | Repeat God's Name and all the | world responds by laying down illusions. Every dream the world holds |
| W1:183.3 | and all the world responds by laying down illusions. Every dream the | world holds dear has suddenly gone by, and where it seemed to stand |
| W1:183.3 | and the tears of pain are dried as happy laughter comes to bless the | world. |
| W1:183.8 | of those who call on Him with names of idols cherished by the | world. They cannot reach Him thus. He cannot hear requests that He be |
| W1:183.10 | experience the gifts of grace. You can escape all bondage of the | world and give the world the same release you found. You can remember |
| W1:183.10 | gifts of grace. You can escape all bondage of the world and give the | world the same release you found. You can remember what the world |
| W1:183.10 | give the world the same release you found. You can remember what the | world forgot and offer it your own remembering. You can accept today |
| W1:184.3 | What are these names by which the | world becomes a series of discrete events, of things un-unified, of |
| W1:184.6 | This is the sum of the inheritance the | world bestows. And everyone who learns to think that it is so accepts |
| W1:184.6 | think that it is so accepts the signs and symbols which assert the | world is real. It is for this they stand. They leave no doubt that |
| W1:184.7 | Such is the teaching of the | world. It is a phase of learning everyone who comes must go through. |
| W1:184.7 | does he question its effects. Learning which stops with what the | world would teach stops short of meaning. In its proper place, it |
| W1:184.7 | a new perception can be gained, and all the arbitrary names the | world bestows can be withdrawn as they are raised to doubt. |
| W1:184.8 | Think not you made the | world. Illusions, yes! But what is true in earth and Heaven is beyond |
| W1:184.9 | indeed be strange if you were asked to go beyond all symbols of the | world, forgetting them forever; yet were asked to take a teaching |
| W1:184.9 | to take a teaching function. You have need to use the symbols of the | world a while. But be you not deceived by them as well. They do not |
| W1:184.9 | them. They become but means by which you can communicate in ways the | world can understand, but which you recognize is not the unity where |
| W1:184.10 | what you need are intervals each day in which the learning of the | world becomes a transitory phase—a prison house from which you go |
| W1:184.10 | to proclaim its unreality in terms which still have meaning in the | world which darkness rules. |
| W1:184.11 | Use all the little names and symbols which delineate the | world of darkness. Yet accept them not as your reality. The Holy |
| W1:184.11 | Source Which unifies all things within Itself. Use all the names the | world bestows on them but for convenience, yet do not forget they |
| W1:184.12 | is the inheritance He gave to those who chose the teaching of the | world to take the place of Heaven. In our practicing, our purpose is |
| W1:185.2 | words. But few indeed have meant them. You have but to look upon the | world you see around you to be sure how very few they are. The world |
| W1:185.2 | the world you see around you to be sure how very few they are. The | world would be completely changed should any two agree these words |
| W1:186.1 | as Heaven. It unites all wills on earth in Heaven's plan to save the | world, restoring it to Heaven's peace. |
| W1:186.7 | not know, sensing its basis crumble. Let it go. Salvation of the | world depends on you and not upon this little pile of dust. What can |
| W1:186.10 | concentrated drive toward goals like these? The functions which the | world esteems are so uncertain that they change ten times an hour at |
| W1:186.13 | and what is given in His Name takes on the form most useful in a | world of form. |
| W1:186.14 | has been restored to you is greater still. Salvation of the | world depends on you who can forgive. Such is your function here. |
| W1:187.1 | possess what you would give. It is the second phase on which the | world and true perception differ. Having had and given, then the |
| W1:187.1 | the world and true perception differ. Having had and given, then the | world asserts that you have lost what you possessed. The truth |
| W1:187.3 | first belong to you before you give them. If you are to save the | world, you first accept salvation for yourself. But you will not |
| W1:187.5 | they cannot be lost. There is no giver and receiver in the sense the | world conceives of them. There is a giver who retains, another who |
| W1:187.11 | Now are we blessed, and now we bless the | world. What we have looked upon we would extend, for we would see it |
| W1:188.1 | is but a recognition, not a change at all. Light is not of the | world, yet you who bear the light in you are alien here as well. The |
| W1:188.3 | of God is shining in you now and from your heart extends around the | world. It pauses to caress each living thing and leave a blessing |
| W1:188.4 | The shining in your mind reminds the | world of what it has forgotten, and the world restores the memory to |
| W1:188.4 | in your mind reminds the world of what it has forgotten, and the | world restores the memory to you as well. From you salvation radiates |
| W1:188.4 | in you shine brighter, adding to the gifts you have to offer to the | world. |
| W1:188.6 | alone has power to give the gift of sight to you. Exclude the outer | world and let your thoughts fly to the peace within. They know the |
| W1:188.9 | that share our life. We will forgive them all, absolving all the | world of what we thought it did to us. For it is we who make the |
| W1:188.9 | the world of what we thought it did to us. For it is we who make the | world as we would have it. Now we choose that it be innocent, devoid |
| W1:189.1 | There is a light in you the | world cannot perceive. And with its eyes you will not see this light, |
| W1:189.1 | its eyes you will not see this light, for you are blinded by the | world. Yet you have eyes to see it. It is there for you to look upon. |
| W1:189.1 | we practice now. To feel the Love of God within you is to see the | world anew, shining in innocence, alive with hope, and blessed with |
| W1:189.2 | Who could feel fear in such a | world as this? It welcomes you, rejoices that you came, and sings |
| W1:189.3 | This is the | world the Love of God reveals. It is so different from the world you |
| W1:189.3 | is the world the Love of God reveals. It is so different from the | world you see through darkened eyes of malice and of fear that one |
| W1:189.3 | one can be perceived at all. The other one is wholly meaningless. A | world in which forgiveness shines on everything and peace offers its |
| W1:189.3 | its gentle light to everyone is inconceivable to those who see a | world of hatred, rising from attack, poised to avenge, to murder and |
| W1:189.4 | Yet is the | world of hatred equally unseen and inconceivable to those who feel |
| W1:189.4 | unseen and inconceivable to those who feel God's Love in them. Their | world reflects the quietness and peace that shines in them, the |
| W1:189.5 | hatred finds a place within your heart, you will perceive a fearful | world, held cruelly in death's sharp-pointed, bony fingers. If you |
| W1:189.5 | fingers. If you feel the Love of God within you, you look out upon a | world of mercy and of love. |
| W1:189.7 | you are and what God is, all concepts you have learned about the | world, all images you hold about yourself. Empty your mind of |
| W1:189.7 | nor one belief you ever learned before from anything. Forget this | world, forget this course, and come with wholly empty hands unto your |
| W1:189.9 | His love shines outward from its home within and lightens up the | world in innocence. |
| W1:189.10 | that Your Will, which is our own as well, be done in us and in the | world, that it becomes a part of Heaven now. Amen. |
| W1:190.5 | oppression. No one but yourself affects you. There is nothing in the | world which has the power to make you ill or sad or weak or frail. |
| W1:190.6 | My holy brothers, think of this awhile—the | world you see does nothing. It has no effects at all. It merely |
| W1:190.7 | The | world may seem to cause you pain. And yet the world, as causeless, |
| W1:190.7 | The world may seem to cause you pain. And yet the | world, as causeless, has no power to cause. As an effect, it cannot |
| W1:190.8 | to triumph over love and time replace eternity and Heaven. And the | world becomes a cruel and a bitter place, where sorrow rules and |
| W1:190.11 | instead of conflict, and the light of Heaven for the darkness of the | world. |
| W1:191.1 | Here is your declaration of release from bondage of the | world. And here as well is all the world released. You do not see |
| W1:191.1 | of release from bondage of the world. And here as well is all the | world released. You do not see what you have done by giving to the |
| W1:191.1 | world released. You do not see what you have done by giving to the | world the role of jailer to the Son of God. What could it be but |
| W1:191.2 | What have you done that this should be your | world? What have you done that this is what you see? Deny your own |
| W1:191.5 | find a place among your thoughts, and you have risen far above the | world and all the worldly thoughts that hold it prisoner. And from |
| W1:191.5 | out the way to happiness that changed his whole perception of the | world. |
| W1:191.6 | with this holy thought, you learn as well that you have freed the | world. You have no need to use it cruelly and then perceive this |
| W1:191.6 | You will not see a devastating image of yourself walking the | world in terror with the world twisting in agony because your fears |
| W1:191.6 | a devastating image of yourself walking the world in terror with the | world twisting in agony because your fears have laid the mark of |
| W1:191.10 | death echoed since time began. For time has lost its hold upon the | world. The Son of God has come in glory to redeem the lost, to save |
| W1:191.10 | in glory to redeem the lost, to save the helpless, and to give the | world the gift of his forgiveness. Who could see the world as dark |
| W1:191.10 | and to give the world the gift of his forgiveness. Who could see the | world as dark and sinful when God's Son has come again at last to set |
| W1:191.11 | game of death, of being helpless, pitifully tied to dissolution in a | world which shows no mercy to you. Yet when you accord it mercy will |
| W1:191.12 | from his sleep, and opening his holy eyes return again to bless the | world he made. In error it began. But it will end in the reflection |
| W1:191.12 | Then join with me today. Your glory is the light that saves the | world. Do not withhold salvation longer. Look about the world, and |
| W1:191.12 | saves the world. Do not withhold salvation longer. Look about the | world, and see the suffering there. Is not your heart willing to |
| W1:191.13 | stay in chains till you are free. They cannot see the mercy of the | world until you find it for yourself. They suffer pain until you have |
| W1:191.13 | life. You are the holy Son of God Himself. Remember this and all the | world is free. Remember this and earth and Heaven are one. |
| W1:192.1 | God and with your Self. Yet what can such a function mean within a | world of envy, hatred, and attack? Therefore you have a function in |
| W1:192.1 | of envy, hatred, and attack? Therefore you have a function in the | world in its own terms. For who can understand a language far beyond |
| W1:192.3 | Creation cannot even be conceived of in the | world. It has no meaning here. Forgiveness is the closest it can come |
| W1:192.4 | all things unknown in Heaven, sees them disappear, and leaves the | world a clean and unmarked slate on which the Word of God can now |
| W1:192.8 | time in keeping watch on him. The bars which limit him become the | world in which the jailer lives, along with him. And it is on his |
| W1:193.3 | holy law of Love be given form in which it could be offered to the | world. And He created One Who could perceive what form this law |
| W1:193.9 | of fear. These are the words by which salvation comes to all the | world. |
| W1:193.17 | go with it. Thus will you remain unbound, in peace eternal in the | world of time. This is the lesson God would have you learn: there is |
| W1:193.17 | that lets it be to you another step to Him and to salvation of the | world. |
| W1:194.2 | about by guilt. Accept today's idea, and you have released the | world from all imprisonment by loosening the heavy chains that locked |
| W1:194.2 | You are saved, and your salvation thus becomes the gift you give the | world because you have received. |
| W1:194.4 | They are one to Him, and so they should be one to you. Yet in this | world the temporal progression still seems real. And so you are not |
| W1:194.5 | the light that was kept hidden in God's Son is freed to bless the | world. Now is he free, and all his glory shines upon a world made |
| W1:194.5 | to bless the world. Now is he free, and all his glory shines upon a | world made free with him to share his holiness. |
| W1:194.6 | way of quick reaction to temptation, you extend your learning to the | world. And as you learn to see salvation in all things, so will the |
| W1:194.6 | world. And as you learn to see salvation in all things, so will the | world perceive that it is saved. |
| W1:194.7 | pain has found his way to present peace and certainty of care the | world can never threaten. He is sure that his perception may be |
| W1:194.8 | your thoughts of sin and evil with the truth of love. Think you the | world could fail to gain thereby and every living creature not |
| W1:194.8 | healed perception? Who entrusts himself to God has also placed the | world within the hands to which he has himself appealed for comfort |
| W1:194.8 | for comfort and security. He lays aside the sick illusions of the | world along with his and offers peace to both. |
| W1:194.9 | choice for us that leaves temptation far behind. No longer is the | world our enemy, for we have chosen that we be its friends. |
| W1:195.1 | Gratitude is a lesson hard to learn for those who look upon the | world amiss. The most that they can do is see themselves as better |
| W1:195.1 | to Him alone Who made all cause of sorrow disappear throughout the | world. |
| W1:196.9 | for today. If it can but be you you crucify, you did not hurt the | world and need not fear its vengeance and pursuit. Nor need you hide |
| W1:197.3 | The | world must thank you when you offer it release from your illusions. |
| W1:198.7 | This | world has many seeming separate haunts where mercy has no meaning and |
| W1:198.12 | condemnation in God's Son, and Heaven is remembered instantly; the | world forgotten, all its weird beliefs forgotten with it, as the face |
| W1:198.13 | Now is there silence all around the | world. Now is there stillness where before there was a frantic rush |
| W1:199.5 | There is no thought that will not gain thereby in power to help the | world, and none which will not gain in added gifts to you as well. We |
| W1:199.5 | added gifts to you as well. We sound the call of freedom round the | world with this idea. And would you be exempt from the acceptance of |
| W1:199.8 | you for today. Your brothers stand released with you in it; the | world is blessed along with you; God's Son will weep no more, and |
| W1:200.4 | no meaning to you, though you sought to make them meaningful. This | world is not where you belong. You are a stranger here. But it is |
| W1:200.4 | a stranger here. But it is given you to find the means whereby the | world no longer seems to be a prison house for you or anyone. |
| W1:200.5 | iron doors. For you must change your mind about the purpose of the | world if you would find escape. You will be bound till all the world |
| W1:200.5 | the world if you would find escape. You will be bound till all the | world is seen by you as blessed and everyone made free of your |
| W1:200.7 | except the peace of God because He has one Son, who cannot make a | world in opposition to God's Will and to his own, which is the same |
| W1:200.7 | own, which is the same as His. What could he hope to find in such a | world? It cannot have reality because it never was created. Is it |
| W1:200.7 | he would seek for peace? Or must he see that, as he looks on it, the | world can but deceive? Yet can he learn to look on it another way and |
| W1:200.8 | Peace is the bridge that everyone will cross to leave this | world behind. But peace begins within the world perceived as |
| W1:200.8 | will cross to leave this world behind. But peace begins within the | world perceived as different and leading from this fresh perception |
| W1:200.9 | the Son will hear. And that is all there is to what appears to be a | world apart from God where bodies have reality. |
| W1:200.11 | be to us today. For we have found a simple, happy way to leave the | world of ambiguity and to replace our shifting goals and solitary |
| W1:R6.1 | truly. Each would be enough to give release to you and to the | world from every form of bondage and invite the memory of God to come |
| W1:R6.5 | or we remember in between we have a function that transcends the | world we see. Beyond this and a repetition of the special thought we |
| W1:R6.11 | each practice period can best become a loving gift of freedom to the | world. |
| W1:204.1 | that I am His Son, not slave to time, unbound by laws which rule the | world of sick illusions, free in God, forever and forever one with |
| W1:206.1 | [186] Salvation of the | world depends on me. I am entrusted with the gifts of God because I |
| W1:207.1 | [187] I bless the | world because I bless myself. God's blessing shines upon me from |
| W1:212.1 | function that would set me free from all the vain illusions of the | world. Only the function God has given me can offer freedom. Only |
| W2:I.1 | remain are merely introductions to the times in which we leave the | world of pain and go to enter peace. Now we begin to reach the goal |
| W2:I.6 | holy times to You in gratitude to Him Who taught us how to leave the | world of sorrow in exchange for its replacement given us by You. We |
| W2:I.6 | gifts of thanks from us, as through Christ's vision we behold a | world beyond the one we made and take that world to be the full |
| W2:I.6 | vision we behold a world beyond the one we made and take that | world to be the full replacement of our own. |
| W2:224.1 | from guilt that Heaven looks to it to give it light. It lights the | world as well. It is the gift my Father gave me, the one as well I |
| W2:224.1 | well. It is the gift my Father gave me, the one as well I give the | world. There is no gift but this that can be either given or |
| W2:224.2 | or what it is I do. Remind me, Father, now, for I am weary of the | world I see. Reveal what You would have me see instead. |
| W2:226.1 | If I so choose, I can depart this | world entirely. It is not death which makes this possible, but it is |
| W2:226.1 | this possible, but it is change of mind about the purpose of the | world. If I believe it has a value as I see it now, so will it still |
| W2:226.1 | it now, so will it still remain for me. But if I see no value in the | world as I behold it, nothing that I want to keep as mine or search |
| W2:WS.3 | is undoing in the sense that it does nothing, failing to support the | world of dreams and malice. Thus it lets illusions go. By not |
| W2:WS.5 | From here we give salvation to the | world, for it is here salvation was received. The song of our |
| W2:WS.5 | was received. The song of our rejoicing is the call to all the | world that freedom is returned, that time is almost over, and God's |
| W2:WS.5 | Father is remembered, dreams are done, eternity has shined away the | world, and only Heaven now exists at all. |
| W2:237.1 | I will arise in glory and allow the light in me to shine upon the | world throughout the day. I bring the world the tidings of salvation |
| W2:237.1 | light in me to shine upon the world throughout the day. I bring the | world the tidings of salvation that I hear as God my Father speaks to |
| W2:237.1 | that I hear as God my Father speaks to me. And I behold the | world that Christ would have me see, aware it ends the bitter dream |
| W2:240.1 | have seen yourself as you could never be and therefore look upon a | world which is impossible. Not one thing in this world is true. It |
| W2:240.1 | look upon a world which is impossible. Not one thing in this | world is true. It does not matter what the form in which it may |
| W2:WIW.1 | The | world is false perception. It is born of error, and it has not left |
| W2:WIW.1 | of separation has been changed to one of true forgiveness will the | world be seen in quite another light, and one which leads to truth, |
| W2:WIW.1 | in quite another light, and one which leads to truth, where all the | world must disappear and all its errors vanish. Now its source has |
| W2:WIW.2 | The | world was made as an attack on God. It symbolizes fear. And what is |
| W2:WIW.2 | It symbolizes fear. And what is fear except love's absence? Thus the | world was meant to be a place where God could enter not and where His |
| W2:WIW.3 | given them to seek. Their aim is to fulfill the purpose which the | world was made to witness and make real. They see in its illusions |
| W2:WIW.4 | be given a new purpose by the One Whom God appointed Savior to the | world. Follow His light and see the world as He beholds it. Hear His |
| W2:WIW.4 | Whom God appointed Savior to the world. Follow His light and see the | world as He beholds it. Hear His Voice alone in all that speaks to |
| W2:WIW.5 | Let us not rest content until the | world has joined our changed perception. Let us not be satisfied |
| W2:WIW.5 | And let us not attempt to change our function. We must save the | world. For we who made it must behold it through the eyes of Christ, |
| W2:241.1 | special celebration. For today holds out the instant to the darkened | world where its release is set. The day has come when sorrows pass |
| W2:241.1 | away and pain is gone. The glory of salvation dawns today upon a | world set free. This is the time of hope for countless millions. They |
| W2:242.1 | I will not lead my life alone today. I do not understand the | world. And so to try to lead my life alone must be but foolishness. |
| W2:245.2 | And so we go in peace. To all the | world we give the message that we have received. And thus we come to |
| W2:249.1 | Forgiveness paints a picture of a | world where suffering is over, loss becomes impossible, and anger |
| W2:249.1 | What suffering is now conceivable? What loss can be sustained? The | world becomes a place of joy, abundance, charity, and endless giving. |
| W2:252.1 | Its strength comes not from burning impulses which move the | world but from the boundless Love of God Himself. How far beyond this |
| W2:252.1 | but from the boundless Love of God Himself. How far beyond this | world my Self must be, and yet how near to me and close to God! |
| W2:253.1 | that anything should come to me unbidden by myself. Even in this | world, it is I who rule my destiny. What happens is what I desire. |
| W2:253.1 | not want to happen. This must I accept. For thus am I led past this | world to my creations, children of my Will, in Heaven where my holy |
| W2:258.1 | grace to shine in unawareness while the toys and trinkets of the | world are sought instead? God is our only goal, our only Love. We |
| W2:264.2 | This is salvation's prayer. Must we not join in what will save the | world along with us? |
| W2:265.1 | I have indeed misunderstood the | world because I laid my “sins” on it and saw them looking back at me. |
| W2:265.1 | And how deceived was I to think that what I feared was in the | world instead of in my mind alone. Today I see the world in the |
| W2:265.1 | feared was in the world instead of in my mind alone. Today I see the | world in the celestial gentleness with which creation shines. There |
| W2:265.1 | appearance of my “sins” obscure the light of Heaven, shining on the | world. What is reflected here is in God's Mind. The images I see |
| W2:265.2 | In quiet would I look upon the | world, which but reflects Your thoughts and mine as well. Let me |
| W2:266.2 | has given us! How can we lose the way to Him, when He has filled the | world with those who point to Him and given us the sight to look on |
| W2:267.1 | of forgiveness. Now my mind is healed, and all I need to save the | world is given me. Each heartbeat brings me peace; each breath |
| W2:269.1 | illusion which transcends all those I made. Today I choose to see a | world forgiven in which everyone shows me the face of Christ and |
| W2:270.1 | all that the body's eyes behold into the sight of a forgiven | world. How glorious and gracious is this world! Yet how much more |
| W2:270.1 | the sight of a forgiven world. How glorious and gracious is this | world! Yet how much more will I perceive in it than sight can give. |
| W2:270.1 | Yet how much more will I perceive in it than sight can give. The | world forgiven signifies Your Son acknowledges his Father, lets his |
| W2:270.2 | is our eyes today. And through His sight, we offer healing to the | world through Him, the holy Son whom God created whole, the holy Son |
| W2:WIC.4 | appointed as the end of dreams. For when forgiveness rests upon the | world and peace has come to every Son of God, what could remain to |
| W2:271.1 | witnesses to what is true in God's creation. In Christ's sight, the | world and God's creation meet, and as they come together, all |
| W2:271.1 | together, all perception disappears. His kindly sight redeems the | world from death. For nothing that He looks on but must live, |
| W2:275.2 | what to say to him, what thoughts to think, what words to give the | world. The safety that I bring is given me. Father, Your Voice |
| W2:278.1 | If I accept that I am prisoner within a body in a | world in which all things that seem to live appear to die, then is my |
| W2:278.1 | prisoner with me. And this do I believe when I maintain the laws the | world obeys must I obey—the frailties and the sins which I perceive |
| W2:282.1 | could realize but this today, salvation would be reached for all the | world. This the decision not to be insane and to accept myself as God |
| W2:283.2 | so we offer blessing to all things, uniting lovingly with all the | world, which our forgiveness has made one with us. |
| W2:289.1 | Unless the past is over in my mind, the real | world must escape my sight. For I am really looking nowhere, seeing |
| W2:289.1 | nowhere, seeing but what is not there. How can I then perceive the | world forgiveness offers? This the past was made to hide, for this |
| W2:289.1 | forgiveness offers? This the past was made to hide, for this the | world that can be looked on only now. It has no past. For what can be |
| W2:289.2 | not there. For You have offered me Your own replacement in a present | world the past has left untouched and free of sin. Here is the end of |
| W2:WIRW.1 | The real | world is a symbol like the rest of what perception offers. Yet it |
| W2:WIRW.1 | offers. Yet it stands for what is opposite to what you made. Your | world is seen through eyes of fear and brings the witnesses of terror |
| W2:WIRW.1 | of fear and brings the witnesses of terror to your mind. The real | world cannot be perceived except through eyes forgiveness blesses, so |
| W2:WIRW.1 | be perceived except through eyes forgiveness blesses, so they see a | world where terror is impossible and witnesses to fear cannot be |
| W2:WIRW.2 | The real | world holds a counterpart for each unhappy thought reflected in your |
| W2:WIRW.2 | world holds a counterpart for each unhappy thought reflected in your | world, a sure correction for the sights of fear and sounds of battle |
| W2:WIRW.2 | correction for the sights of fear and sounds of battle which your | world contains. The real world shows a world seen differently, |
| W2:WIRW.2 | of fear and sounds of battle which your world contains. The real | world shows a world seen differently, through quiet eyes and with a |
| W2:WIRW.2 | sounds of battle which your world contains. The real world shows a | world seen differently, through quiet eyes and with a mind at peace. |
| W2:WIRW.3 | to be condemned, and what is there that it would judge against? The | world it sees arises from a mind at peace within itself. No danger |
| W2:WIRW.4 | The real | world is the symbol that the dream of sin and guilt is over and God's |
| W2:WIRW.4 | his Father's Love, the certain promise that he is redeemed. The real | world signifies the end of time, for its perception makes time |
| W2:WIRW.5 | our goal, for it contains the memory of God. And as we look upon a | world forgiven, it is He Who calls to us and comes to take us home, |
| W2:291.1 | all things forgiven and at peace and offers this same vision to the | world. And I accept this vision in its name, both for myself and for |
| W2:291.1 | And I accept this vision in its name, both for myself and for the | world as well. What loveliness we look upon today! What holiness we |
| W2:293.1 | present state, whose Source is here forever and forever. Can the | world seem bright and clear and safe and welcoming with all my past |
| W2:293.1 | in the present, love is obvious and its effects apparent. All the | world shines in reflection of its holy light, and I perceive a world |
| W2:293.1 | the world shines in reflection of its holy light, and I perceive a | world forgiven at last. |
| W2:293.2 | Father, let not Your holy | world escape my sight today. Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns |
| W2:293.2 | today. Nor let my ears be deaf to all the hymns of gratitude the | world is singing underneath the sounds of fear. There is a real world |
| W2:293.2 | the world is singing underneath the sounds of fear. There is a real | world which the present holds safe from all past mistakes. And I |
| W2:293.2 | present holds safe from all past mistakes. And I would see only this | world before my eyes today. |
| W2:295.1 | Christ asks that He may use my eyes today and thus redeem the | world. He asks this gift that He may offer peace of mind to me and |
| W2:295.1 | as they are removed from me, the dreams that seemed to settle on the | world are gone. Redemption must be one. As I am saved, the world is |
| W2:295.1 | on the world are gone. Redemption must be one. As I am saved, the | world is saved with me. For all of us must be redeemed together. Fear |
| W2:296.1 | The Holy Spirit needs my voice today, that all the | world may listen to Your Voice and hear Your Word through me. I am |
| W2:296.1 | apart from Yours, for only Yours are true. I would be savior to the | world I made. For having damned it, I would set it free that I may |
| W2:296.2 | to rescue us from hell when we allow His teaching to persuade the | world through us to seek and find the easy path to God! |
| W2:297.1 | who would be saved, would make it mine to be the way I live within a | world that needs salvation and that will be saved as I accept |
| W2:300.2 | We seek Your holy | world today. For we, Your loving Sons, have lost our way a while. But |
| W2:300.2 | to Heaven and our true Identity. And we give thanks today the | world endures but for an instant. We would go beyond that tiny |
| W2:WISC.2 | nature of Christ's Second Coming that permits it to embrace the | world and hold you safe within its gentle advent, which encompasses |
| W2:301.1 | Nor can I suffer pain or feel I am abandoned and unneeded in the | world. This is my home because I judge it not. And therefore is it |
| W2:301.1 | eyes forgiveness has released from all distortion. Let me see Your | world instead of mine. And all the tears I shed will be forgotten, |
| W2:301.1 | forgotten, for their source is gone. Father, I will not judge Your | world today. |
| W2:301.2 | God's | world is happy. Those who look on it can only add their joy to it and |
| W2:301.2 | them. We wept because we did not understand. But we have learned the | world we saw was false, and we will look upon God's world today. |
| W2:301.2 | have learned the world we saw was false, and we will look upon God's | world today. |
| W2:302.1 | Father, our eyes are opening at last. Your holy | world awaits us, as our sight is finally restored and we can see. We |
| W2:302.1 | for fear must disappear when love has come. Let me forgive Your holy | world today that I may look upon its holiness and understand it but |
| W2:304.1 | I can obscure my holy sight if I intrude my | world upon it. Nor can I behold the holy sights Christ looks upon |
| W2:304.1 | I look on is my state of mind reflected outward. I would bless the | world by looking on it through the eyes of Christ. And I will look |
| W2:304.2 | sin to holiness. Let me forgive and thus receive salvation for the | world. It is Your gift, my Father, given me to offer to Your holy Son |
| W2:305.1 | so deep and quiet, undisturbable and wholly changeless that the | world contains no counterpart. Comparisons are still before this |
| W2:305.1 | no counterpart. Comparisons are still before this peace. And all the | world departs in silence as this peace envelops it and gently carries |
| W2:305.1 | no more to be the home of fear. For Love has come and healed the | world by giving it Christ's peace. |
| W2:306.1 | vision would I use today when it can offer me a day in which I see a | world so like to Heaven that an ancient memory returns to me? Today I |
| W2:306.1 | Heaven that an ancient memory returns to me? Today I can forget the | world I made. Today I can go past all fear and be restored to love |
| W2:306.1 | and holiness and peace. Today I am redeemed and born anew into a | world of mercy and of care; of loving kindness and the peace of God. |
| W2:308.1 | a past or future. He has come to give His present blessing to the | world, restoring it to timelessness and love. And love is |
| W2:308.2 | You have appointed for Your Son's release and for salvation of the | world in him. |
| W2:310.2 | We spend this day together, you and I. And all the | world joins with us in our song of thankfulness and joy to Him Who |
| W2:WILJ.1 | this the judgment is in which perception ends. At first you see a | world which has accepted this as true, projected from a now corrected |
| W2:WILJ.2 | The final judgment on the | world contains no condemnation. For it sees the world as totally |
| W2:WILJ.2 | judgment on the world contains no condemnation. For it sees the | world as totally forgiven, without sin and wholly purposeless. |
| W2:WILJ.2 | there it ends as well. And all the figures in the dream in which the | world began go with it. Bodies now are useless and will therefore |
| W2:WILJ.3 | You who believed that God's Last Judgment would condemn the | world to hell along with you, accept this holy truth: God's Judgment |
| W2:WILJ.4 | Be not afraid of this. Salvation asks you give it welcome. And the | world awaits your glad acceptance, which will set it free. |
| W2:312.1 | what you have chosen to behold. How surely, therefore, must the real | world come to greet the holy sight of anyone who takes the Holy |
| W2:312.2 | I have no purpose for today except to look upon a liberated | world, set free from all the judgments I have made. Father, this is |
| W2:313.1 | it is asked. This vision is Your gift. The eyes of Christ look on a | world forgiven. In His sight are all its sins forgiven, for He sees |
| W2:313.2 | and how loving! Brother, come and join with me today. We save the | world when we are joined. For in our vision it becomes as holy as the |
| W2:314.1 | From new perception of the | world there comes a future very different from the past. The future |
| W2:318.1 | holy Son, are reconciled all parts of Heaven's plan to save the | world. What could conflict when all the parts have but one purpose |
| W2:318.1 | placed in me. I was created as the thing I seek. I am the goal the | world is searching for. I am God's Son, His one Eternal Love. I am |
| W2:319.2 | stems from it shares its totality. What aim but the salvation of the | world could You have given me? And what but this could be the will my |
| W2:320.2 | Your Will can do all things in me and then extend to all the | world as well through me. There is no limit on Your Will. And so all |
| W2:321.2 | Today we answer for the | world, which will be freed along with us. How glad are we to find our |
| W2:323.1 | “cost” of restoration of Your memory to me for the salvation of the | world. |
| W2:325.1 | real, and guarded as one's own. From insane wishes comes an insane | world. From judgment comes a world condemned. And from forgiving |
| W2:325.1 | own. From insane wishes comes an insane world. From judgment comes a | world condemned. And from forgiving thoughts a gentle world comes |
| W2:325.1 | comes a world condemned. And from forgiving thoughts a gentle | world comes forth, with mercy for the holy Son of God, to offer him a |
| W2:331.1 | love me, Father. You could never leave me desolate, to die within a | world of pain and cruelty. How could I think that Love has left |
| W2:332.2 | We would not bind the | world again today. Fear holds it prisoner. And yet Your Love has |
| W2:333.2 | but this can end our evil dreams. No light but this can save the | world. For this alone will never fail in anything, being Your gift to |
| W2:338.1 | It needs but this to let salvation come to all the | world. For in this single thought is everyone released at last from |
| W2:340.1 | all suffering. Thanks for today, my Father. I was born into this | world but to achieve this day and what it holds in joy and freedom |
| W2:340.1 | and what it holds in joy and freedom for Your holy Son and for the | world he made, which is released along with him today. |
| W2:WIM.2 | and received as one. And thus it illustrates the law of truth the | world does not obey because it fails entirely to understand its ways. |
| W2:WIM.3 | to curse has come to bless. Each lily of forgiveness offers all the | world the silent miracle of love. And each is laid before the Word of |
| W2:WIM.4 | the miracle will justify your faith in it and show it rested on a | world more real than what you saw before—a world redeemed from what |
| W2:WIM.4 | and show it rested on a world more real than what you saw before—a | world redeemed from what you thought you saw. |
| W2:WIM.5 | fall like drops of healing rain from Heaven on a dry and dusty | world, where starved and thirsty creatures came to die. Now they have |
| W2:WIM.5 | and thirsty creatures came to die. Now they have water. Now the | world is green. And everywhere the signs of life spring up to show |
| W2:342.2 | me now. I come to you to take you home with me. And as we go, the | world goes with us on the way to God. |
| W2:345.2 | today. The light has come to offer miracles to bless the tired | world. It will find rest today, for we will offer what we have |
| W2:349.2 | them all. And so we trust in Him to send us miracles to bless the | world and heal our minds as we return to Him. |
| W2:350.1 | teaches me to let Your memory return to me and give it to the | world in thankfulness. |
| W2:WAI.3 | are the bringers of salvation. We accept our part as saviors of the | world, which through our joint forgiveness is redeemed. And this, our |
| W2:WAI.4 | Ours are the eyes through which Christ's vision sees a | world redeemed from every thought of sin. Ours are the ears that hear |
| W2:WAI.4 | of sin. Ours are the ears that hear the Voice of God proclaim the | world as sinless. Ours the minds which join together as we bless the |
| W2:WAI.4 | world as sinless. Ours the minds which join together as we bless the | world. And from the oneness that we have attained we call to all our |
| W2:351.1 | myself a sinner, not a Son of God, alone and friendless in a fearful | world. Yet this perception is a choice I make and can relinquish. I |
| W2:359.1 | Father, today we will forgive Your | world and let creation be Your own. We have misunderstood all things. |
| W2:359.1 | forgiveness rests upon a certain base more solid than the shadow | world we see. Help us forgive, for we would be redeemed. Help us |
| W2:360.1 | else can certainty be found. Peace be to me and peace to all the | world. In holiness were we created, and in holiness do we remain. |
| W2:FL.1 | For we would not return again to the belief in sin, which made the | world seem ugly and unsafe, attacking and destroying, dangerous in |
| W2:FL.3 | the function of salvation. Unto us the aim is given to forgive the | world. It is the goal that God has given us. It is His ending to the |
| W2:E.3 | but the Voice for God and for your Self when you retire from the | world, to seek Reality instead. He will direct your efforts, telling |
| M:I.1 | of teaching and learning is actually reversed in the thinking of the | world. The reversal is characteristic. It seems as if the teacher and |
| M:I.4 | himself that he is what he is not. Herein is the purpose of the | world. What else, then, would its curriculum be? Into this hopeless |
| M:I.5 | for God's teachers, there would be no hope of salvation, for the | world of sin would seem forever “real.” The self-deceiving must |
| M:I.5 | How can they work out their own salvation and the salvation of the | world? This manual attempts to answer these questions. |
| M:1.2 | They come from all over the | world. They come from all religions and from no religion. They are |
| M:1.2 | everywhere. It calls for teachers to speak for it and redeem the | world. Many hear it, but few will answer. But it is all a matter of |
| M:1.2 | be limited. And each one saves a thousand years of time as the | world judges it. To the Call itself, time has no meaning. |
| M:1.3 | He has therefore found his own salvation and the salvation of the | world. In his rebirth is the world reborn. |
| M:1.3 | own salvation and the salvation of the world. In his rebirth is the | world reborn. |
| M:1.4 | save time. Yet it is time alone that winds on wearily, and the | world is very tired now. It is old and worn and without hope. There |
| M:1.4 | God? But time, with its illusions of change and death, wears out the | world and all things in it. Yet time has an ending, and it is this |
| M:2.3 | The | world of time is the world of illusion. What happened long ago seems |
| M:2.3 | The world of time is the | world of illusion. What happened long ago seems to be happening now. |
| M:3.3 | time, the teacher of God seems to begin to change his mind about the | world with the single decision, and then learns more and more about |
| M:4.1 | come from vastly different backgrounds, their experiences of the | world vary greatly, and their superficial “personalities” are quite |
| M:4.3 | effect are never separated. The teachers of God have trust in the | world, because they have learned it is not governed by the laws the |
| M:4.3 | world, because they have learned it is not governed by the laws the | world made up. It is governed by a Power Which is in them but not of |
| M:4.3 | It is through this Power that the teachers of God look on a forgiven | world. |
| M:4.6 | helpful that any degree of reality should be accorded them in this | world of illusion. The word “value” can apply to nothing else. |
| M:4.12 | never do their will alone. They choose for all mankind, for all the | world and all things in it, for the unchanging and unchangeable |
| M:4.18 | for without trust, no one can be generous in the true sense. To the | world, generosity means “giving away” in the sense of “giving up.” To |
| M:4.18 | the workbook, but it is perhaps more alien to the thinking of the | world than many other ideas in our curriculum. Its greater |
| M:4.18 | the word means the exact opposite to the teachers of God and to the | world. |
| M:4.19 | out of self-interest. This does not refer, however, to the self the | world speaks of. The teacher of God does not want anything he cannot |
| M:4.20 | as well held no mistakes—nothing that did not serve to benefit the | world as well as him to whom it seemed to happen. Perhaps it was not |
| M:4.21 | give up all problems to one Answer is to reverse the thinking of the | world entirely. And that alone is faithfulness. Nothing but that |
| M:4.24 | that would prevent forgiveness. They have in truth abandoned the | world and let it be restored to them in newness and in joy so |
| M:4.25 | It is the function of God's teachers to bring true learning to the | world. Properly speaking it is unlearning that they bring, for that |
| M:4.25 | it is unlearning that they bring, for that is “true learning” in the | world. It is given to the teachers of God to bring the glad tidings |
| M:4.25 | of God to bring the glad tidings of complete forgiveness to the | world. Blessed indeed are they, for they are the bringers of |
| M:5.4 | to recognizing this is enormous, because the existence of the | world as we perceive it depends on the body being the decision-maker. |
| M:5.7 | in one respect, and the learning will generalize and transform the | world. The transfer value of one true idea has no end nor limit. The |
| M:8.3 | do all these differences come from? Certainly they seem to be in the | world outside. Yet it is surely the mind that judges what the eyes |
| M:8.3 | and gives them “meaning.” And this meaning does not exist in the | world outside at all. What is seen as “reality” is simply what the |
| M:8.4 | all differences rests, because it is on this that judgments of the | world depend. Can this confused and senseless “reasoning” be depended |
| M:8.6 | the messages the mind receives from what appears to be the outside | world. And of these two, but one is real. Just as reality is wholly |
| M:9.2 | achieving a goal in direct opposition to that of our curriculum. The | world trains for reliance on one's judgment as the criterion for |
| M:10.1 | Judgment, like other devices by which the | world of illusions is maintained, is totally misunderstood by the |

| Tx:9.74 | is no more real than the image, although those who make idols do | worship them. The idols are nothing, but their worshipers are the |
| Tx:9.77 | your Creator with him? To believe a Son of God is sick is to | worship the same idol he does. God created love, not idolatry. All |

| Tx:19.103 | offers you salvation as His Friend. The “enemies” of Christ, the | worshipers of sin, know not Whom they attack. This is your brother, |

| Tx:8.116 | is to value, so] your return is in proportion to your judgment of | worth. If paying is associated with giving, it cannot be perceived as |
| Tx:11.54 | to share it. Remembering you always, He cannot let you forget your | worth. For the Father never ceases to remind Him of His Son, and He |
| Tx:13.33 | you beyond the value that you set on yourselves, even unto the | worth that God has placed upon you. I love all that He created, and |
| Tx:13.79 | Seek not to appraise the | worth of God's Son, whom He created holy, for to do so is to evaluate |
| Tx:15.57 | that he is wholly worthy of it, and in our appreciation of his | worth, we cannot doubt his holiness. And so we love him. |

| Tx:2.51 | The Atonement is the only gift that is | worthy of being offered to the altar of God. This is because of the |
| Tx:2.51 | value of the altar itself. It was created perfect and is entirely | worthy of receiving perfection. God is lonely without His Souls, and |

| Tx:5.76 | cultivating you will cultivate in yourself. Your judgment of what is | worthy makes it worthy for you. “Vengeance is mine, sayeth the Lord” |
| Tx:5.76 | will cultivate in yourself. Your judgment of what is worthy makes it | worthy for you. “Vengeance is mine, sayeth the Lord” is easily |
| Tx:5.91 | miracles. He has not learned that every mind God created is equally | worthy of being healed because God created it whole. You are merely |
| Tx:6.1 | premises, the equally irrational conclusion that a brother is | worthy of attack rather than of love follows. What can be expected |
| Tx:7.76 | Only honor is a fitting gift for those whom God Himself created | worthy of honor and whom He honors. Give them the appreciation which |
| Tx:7.77 | One Child of God is the only teacher sufficiently | worthy to teach another. One Teacher is in all your minds, and He |
| Tx:7.108 | that is where he belongs. It is also the only environment that is | worthy of him, because his own worth is beyond anything he can make. |
| Tx:7.109 | Consider the kingdom you have made and judge its worth fairly. Is it | worthy to be a home for a Child of God? Does it protect his peace and |
| Tx:7.112 | created them with you. We said before that only the whole Sonship is | worthy to be co-creator with God, because only the whole Sonship can |
| Tx:8.43 | because he is deprived of anything else, but because nothing else is | worthy of him. What God and His Sons create is eternal, and in this |
| Tx:9.47 | it. The truth about you is so lofty that nothing unworthy of God is | worthy of you. Choose, then, what you want in these terms and accept |
| Tx:10.30 | and bless it with the light your Father gave it. Then you will be | worthy to dwell in the temple with Him because it is your will not to |
| Tx:13.75 | offer it to you? He will never ask what you have done to make you | worthy of the gift of God. Ask it not therefore of yourselves. |
| Tx:13.75 | of yourselves. Instead, accept His answer, for He knows that you are | worthy of everything God wills for you. Do not try to escape the gift |
| Tx:14.33 | God without His Son. And nothing brought there that is not equally | worthy of both but will be replaced by gifts wholly acceptable to |
| Tx:14.37 | are brought together with the gift of God, and only what is | worthy of the Father will be accepted by the Son, for whom it was |
| Tx:15.30 | sacrifice to accept anything less than glory. Learn that you must be | worthy of the Prince of Peace, born in you in honor of Him Whose host |

| Tx:24.34 | your enemy—feared and attacked, deadly and dangerous, hated and | worthy only of destruction. Whatever gentleness it offers is but |
| Tx:25.4 | which meet and join and raise Him to His Father, whole and pure and | worthy of His everlasting Love. |
| Tx:25.55 | And understand that everything that meets this one demand is | worthy of your faith. But nothing else. What is not love is sin, and |
| Tx:25.83 | It is not a special gift to some to be withheld from others as less | worthy, more condemned, and thus apart from healing. Who is there who |
| Tx:26.45 | with one illusion as your only friend. This is no friendship | worthy of God's Son, nor one with which he could remain content. Yet |
| Tx:29.35 | friend to him, created by his Father as His home? If God esteems him | worthy of Himself, would you attack him with the hands of hate? Who |
| Tx:29.56 | and this is what the miracle restores to what has life and power | worthy of the gift of Heaven and eternal peace. The miracle does not |
| Tx:31.63 | hence. Who could have trust where so much change is seen, for who is | worthy if he be but dust? Salvation is undoing of all this. And |
| Tx:31.67 | and the stain of sin upon you? So the world is seen as stable, fully | worthy of your trust; a happy place to rest in for a while, where |
| Tx:31.67 | as a star, as pure as light, as innocent as Love Itself. And you are | worthy that your will be done! |
| Tx:31.69 | yourself. But should one brother dawn upon your sight as wholly | worthy of forgiveness, then your concept of yourself is wholly |
| W1:91.9 | of something else, something more solid and more sure, more | worthy of your faith, and really there. |

| W1:14.3 | is another step in learning to let go the thoughts which you have | written on the world, and see the Word of God in their place. The |

| Tx:8.81 | Wrong perception is distorted willing, which wants things to be as | |
| Tx:9.2 | the ego. When you correct a brother, you are telling him that he is | wrong. He may be making no sense at the time, and it is certain that |

| Tx:13.73 | yourself, you are thinking destructively, and the decision will be | wrong. It will hurt you because of the concept of decision which led |
| Tx:13.78 | alone and will decide against your peace as surely as you made the | wrong decision in ever thinking that salvation lay in you alone. |
| Tx:13.90 | Decide that God is right and you are | wrong about yourself. He created you out of Himself but still within |
| Tx:14.26 | It is only this belief that the unknowing have, and by it they are | wrong about themselves. They have defined themselves as they were not |
| Tx:14.50 | giving you shining examples to show you that your way of ordering is | wrong, but that a better way is offered you. |
| Tx:17.39 | so hard and are still trying to fit the better picture into the | wrong frame and so combine what cannot be combined, accept this and |
| Tx:17.59 | and try to piece together what it must have meant. And you will be | wrong. Not only is your judgment in the past, but you have no idea |
| Tx:18.35 | combined with the unlimited power of God's Will. You have been | wrong in thinking that it is needful to prepare yourself for Him. It |

| Tx:19.17 | which makes salvation possible. For error can be corrected, and the | wrong made right. But sin, were it possible, would be irreversible. |
| Tx:21.3 | And so it is with you. You do not see. Your cues for inference are | wrong, and so you stumble and fall down upon the stones you did not |

| Tx:24.7 | Specialness is the great dictator of the | wrong decisions. Here is the grand illusion of what you are and what |
| Tx:25.30 | If then it is forgiven, sin's perception must have been | wrong. And thus is change made possible. The Holy Spirit too sees |
| Tx:27.51 | never violated. Fear you not the way that you perceive them. You are | wrong, but there is One within you Who is right. |
| Tx:30.19 | And so I hope I have been | wrong. |

| W1:59.5 | through Him. I have tried to define what seeing is, and I have been | wrong. Now it is given me to understand that God is the Light in |

| W1:131.5 | deceive himself, and think that it is hell he seeks. When he is | wrong, he finds correction; when he wanders off, he is led back to |

| Tx:2.17 | lack of love. These can be either from yourself and others or from | yourself to others or from others to you. Peace is an attribute in |

| Tx:2.31 | can be properly used as a way of putting distance between | yourself and what you should fly from. |

| Tx:2.74 | What you do comes from what you think. You cannot separate | yourself from the truth by “giving” autonomy to behavior. This is |
| Tx:2.77 | This produces conflicted behavior, which is intolerable to | yourself because the part of the will that wants to do something else |
| Tx:2.82 | step is know first that this is an expression of fear. Then say to | yourself that you must somehow have willed not to love, or the fear |
| Tx:2.87 | It is obvious, then, that when you are afraid you have placed | yourself in a position where you need Atonement, because you have |
| Tx:2.90 | It appears at first glance that to believe such power about | yourself is merely arrogant, but that is not the real reason why you |
| Tx:3.29 | that if you perceive truly, you are canceling out misperceptions in | yourself and in others simultaneously. Because you see them as they |
| Tx:3.36 | If you attack error in one another, you will hurt | yourself. You cannot recognize each other when you attack. Attack is |
| Tx:3.58 | has no separate parts. You who are really one with it need but know | yourself, and your knowledge is complete. To know God's miracle is to |
| Tx:3.60 | is beyond perception because it is beyond doubt. Do not perceive | yourself in different lights. Know yourself in the One Light where |

| Tx:3.65 | it is because you have judged him as debased. When you laugh at | yourself, you are singularly likely to laugh at others, if only |
| Tx:3.73 | by depreciating the power of your minds. To do so is to deceive | yourself, and this will hurt you because you know the strength of the |
| Tx:4.2 | knowledge instead of affirming it and are thus dispiriting | yourself. Do not embark on foolish journeys, because they are indeed |
| Tx:4.4 | we can overcome the cross. Unless you do so, you are free to crucify | yourself as often as you choose. But this is not the Gospel I |
| Tx:4.18 | and release others. Do not present a false and unworthy picture of | yourself to others, and do not accept such a picture of them |
| Tx:4.49 | have for the self you have made. You project onto your own idea of | yourself the will to separate, which conflicts with the love you feel |
| Tx:4.53 | more than God will, but I must wait as long as you choose to forsake | yourself. Because I wait in love and not in impatience, you will |

| Tx:4.62 | sufficiently vigilant against the demands of the ego to disengage | yourself. This need not be. |
| Tx:4.63 | is not one of concentration; it is the belief that no one, including | yourself, is worth consistent effort. Side with me consistently |
| Tx:4.83 | the real source of its perceived threat, and if you associate | yourself with the ego, you do not perceive the whole situation as it |
| Tx:5.19 | why you can choose to listen to two voices within you. One you made | yourself and that one is not of God. But the other is given you by |
| Tx:5.27 | earth. My only gift to you is to help you make the same decision for | yourself. The will for this decision is the will to share it, because |
| Tx:5.33 | the idea of God. Since you are part of God, it is also the idea of | yourself as well as of all the parts of God. The idea of the Holy |
| Tx:5.34 | yours. What you acknowledge in your brother you are acknowledging in | yourself, and what you share you strengthen. |
| Tx:5.35 | in strength before you can hear it. It is impossible to hear it in | yourself while it is so weak in your own mind. It is not weak in |
| Tx:5.35 | shared. If you make the mistake of looking for the Holy Spirit in | yourself alone, your meditations will frighten you because by |
| Tx:5.39 | place of the Sonship [is] God. This is your life, your eternity, and | yourself. It is of this that the Holy Spirit reminds you. It is this |
| Tx:5.41 | of peace. What you perceive in others, you are strengthening in | yourself. You let your mind misperceive, but the Holy Spirit lets |
| Tx:5.44 | to be a loving, wise, and very understanding therapist except for | yourself. That exception has given you more than perception for |
| Tx:5.48 | As a therapist, you | yourself tell your patients that the real difference between neurotic |
| Tx:5.52 | to one voice means the will to share the voice in order to hear it | yourself. The mind that was in me is still irresistibly drawn to |
| Tx:5.53 | cannot hurt you and hold nothing against him, or you hold it against | yourself. Teaching is done in many ways: by formal means, by |
| Tx:5.61 | follows, then, that if you identify with the ego, you must perceive | yourself as guilty. Whenever you respond to your ego, you will |
| Tx:5.73 | share it with your brothers. How else can the chance to claim it for | yourself be given you? What you do not understand is that the two |
| Tx:5.76 | that what you believe to be worth cultivating you will cultivate in | yourself. Your judgment of what is worthy makes it worthy for you. |
| Tx:5.79 | “Do not look there.” It is still true that “where you look to find | yourself is up to you.” The Higher Court will not condemn you. It |
| Tx:5.92 | peace, because you are of one mind and spirit with Him. Excluding | yourself from the Atonement is the ego's last-ditch defense of its |
| Tx:5.94 | in the usual sense because this implies guilt. If you allow | yourself to feel guilty, you will reinforce the error rather than |
| Tx:6.7 | be persecuted. If you respond with anger, you must be equating | yourself with the destructible and are therefore regarding yourself |
| Tx:6.7 | equating yourself with the destructible and are therefore regarding | yourself insanely. |
| Tx:6.26 | you disown and therefore do not believe is yours. You are excluding | yourself by the very statement you are making that you are different |
| Tx:6.26 | unconsciously, you try to keep the fact that you must have attacked | yourself first out of awareness and thus imagine that you have made |
| Tx:6.26 | yourself first out of awareness and thus imagine that you have made | yourself safe. |
| Tx:6.28 | The ego uses projection only to distort your perception both of | yourself and your brothers. The process begins by excluding something |
| Tx:6.29 | is the one need which in this world is universal. To perceive | yourself this way is the only way in which you can find happiness in |
| Tx:6.30 | in Him, Who alone is perfect. To deny this in any way is to deny | yourself and Him since it is impossible to accept one without the |
| Tx:6.32 | You can no more pray for yourselves alone than you can find joy for | yourself alone. Prayer is the restatement of inclusion, directed by |
| Tx:6.53 | a Guide to how to develop them, but you have no commander except | yourself. This leaves you in charge of the Kingdom with both a Guide |
| Tx:6.68 | This is a very preliminary step, and the only one you must take for | yourself. It is not even necessary that you complete the step |
| Tx:6.68 | for yourself. It is not even necessary that you complete the step | yourself, but it is necessary that you turn in that direction. Having |
| Tx:6.68 | you turn in that direction. Having chosen to go that way, you place | yourself in charge of the journey, where you and only you must remain. |
| Tx:6.90 | that you are without the Kingdom and have therefore excluded | yourself from it in your belief. It is therefore essential to teach |
| Tx:6.94 | learn to accept truth, because you threw it away. You therefore saw | yourself as if you were without it. By making another Kingdom which |
| Tx:7.5 | if God created you by extending Himself as you, you can only extend | yourself as He did. Only joy increases forever, since joy and |
| Tx:7.6 | you something about this last step, although this one you must know | yourself, since by it you know what you are. This is your being. |
| Tx:7.10 | To heal, then, is to correct perception in your brother and | yourself by sharing the Holy Spirit with him. This places you both |
| Tx:7.26 | see yourselves as separated from your meaning only by experiencing | yourself as unreal. This is why the ego is insane; it teaches that |
| Tx:7.28 | as true. How is that different from saying that you are perceiving | yourself as unreal? |
| Tx:7.51 | I am with you, and I cannot forget Him. To forget me is to forget | yourself and Him Who created you. Our brothers are forgetful. That is |
| Tx:7.71 | to be subject to exclusion. You will never be able to exclude | yourself from what you project. |
| Tx:7.73 | to be. Your brother is the mirror in which you will see the image of | yourself as long as perception lasts. And perception will last until |
| Tx:7.76 | are a part, or you cannot learn of His peace and accept His gift for | yourself and as yourself. You cannot know your own perfection until |
| Tx:7.76 | cannot learn of His peace and accept His gift for yourself and as | yourself. You cannot know your own perfection until you have honored |
| Tx:7.77 | Do not share their delusions of scarcity, or you will perceive | yourself as lacking. |
| Tx:7.79 | Projection always sees your will in others. If you will to separate | yourself from God, that is what you will think others are doing to |
| Tx:7.84 | that it can free you of conflict, lest you give the ego up and free | yourself. The ego, using its own warped version of the laws of God, |
| Tx:7.86 | perpetuate an illusion about another without perpetuating it about | yourself. There is no way out of this, because it is impossible to |
| Tx:7.88 | are willing to accept sole responsibility for the ego's existence | yourself, you will have laid aside all anger and all attack, because |
| Tx:7.90 | cannot make this judgment alone. By accepting the Atonement for | yourself, you are deciding against the belief that you can be alone, |
| Tx:7.91 | power, but God wills to release it. He no more wills you to deprive | yourself of your creations than He wills to deprive Himself of His. |
| Tx:7.91 | of His. Do not withhold your gifts to the Sonship, or you withhold | yourself from God. Selfishness is of the ego, but self-fullness is of |
| Tx:7.94 | know your own self-fullness. Exclude any part of the Kingdom from | yourself, and you are not whole. A split mind cannot perceive its |
| Tx:7.102 | That is why you need to demonstrate the obvious to | yourself. It is not obvious to you. You believe that doing the |
| Tx:8.4 | have what you give up? You share to have, but you do not give it up | yourself. When you give up peace, you are excluding yourself from it. |
| Tx:8.4 | not give it up yourself. When you give up peace, you are excluding | yourself from it. This is a condition which is so alien to the |
| Tx:8.7 | except for the crucial fact that both are teaching you about | yourself. Your reality is unaffected by both, but if you listen to |
| Tx:8.12 | make this distinction without Him. That is because you have taught | yourself that imprisonment is freedom. Believing them to be the same, |
| Tx:8.13 | could will to be without you. This is freedom and this is joy. Deny | yourself this and you are denying God His Kingdom because He created |
| Tx:8.19 | remember it is a holy encounter. As you see him, you will see | yourself. As you treat him, you will treat yourself. As you think of |
| Tx:8.19 | you see him, you will see yourself. As you treat him, you will treat | yourself. As you think of him, you will think of yourself. Never |
| Tx:8.19 | him, you will treat yourself. As you think of him, you will think of | yourself. Never forget this, for in him you will find yourself or |
| Tx:8.19 | will think of yourself. Never forget this, for in him you will find | yourself or lose sight of yourself. Whenever two Sons of God meet, |
| Tx:8.19 | forget this, for in him you will find yourself or lose sight of | yourself. Whenever two Sons of God meet, they are given another |
| Tx:8.19 | Do not leave anyone without giving salvation to him and receiving it | yourself, for I am always there with you in remembrance of you. |
| Tx:8.20 | are in him, because they are yours. The ego tries to find them in | yourself, because it does not know where to look. The Holy Spirit |
| Tx:8.20 | where to look. The Holy Spirit teaches you that if you look only at | yourself, you cannot find yourself because that is not what you are. |
| Tx:8.20 | teaches you that if you look only at yourself, you cannot find | yourself because that is not what you are. |
| Tx:8.21 | your responsibility to him, because it is your responsibility to | yourself. Give him his place in the Kingdom, and you will have yours. |
| Tx:8.22 | once you have really done this, you will accept the Atonement for | yourself. What other choice could you make? Having made this choice, |
| Tx:8.23 | You can encounter only part of | yourself, because you are part of God, Who is everything. His power |
| Tx:8.25 | laws govern you, because they govern everything. You cannot exempt | yourself from His laws, although you can disobey them. Yet if you do, |
| Tx:8.25 | you do, you will feel lonely and helpless, because you are denying | yourself everything. |
| Tx:8.27 | abide wherever you go. The remembrance of me is the remembrance of | yourself and of Him Who sent me to you. You were in darkness until |
| Tx:8.33 | you are nothing without me, because by denying the Father you deny | yourself. I will always remember you, and in my remembrance of you |
| Tx:8.33 | remember you, and in my remembrance of you lies your remembrance of | yourself. In our remembrance of each other lies our remembrance of |
| Tx:8.34 | do not love. Therefore, when you seek to imprison anyone, including | yourself, you do not love him, and you cannot identify with him. When |
| Tx:8.34 | do not love him, and you cannot identify with him. When you imprison | yourself, you are losing sight of your true identification with me |
| Tx:8.35 | The Holy Trinity is holy, because it is one. If you exclude | yourself from this union, you are perceiving the Holy Trinity as |
| Tx:8.36 | what you are. By separating your will from mine, you are exempting | yourself from the Will of God, which is yourself. |
| Tx:8.36 | from mine, you are exempting yourself from the Will of God, which is | yourself. |
| Tx:8.37 | recognizing Him? The recognition of God is the recognition of | yourself. There is no separation of God and His creation. You will |
| Tx:8.39 | with yours. Our union is therefore the way to renounce the ego in | yourself. The truth in both of us is beyond the ego. By willing that, |
| Tx:8.46 | in return? And what else but joy would you want? You made neither | yourself nor your function. You made only the decision to be unworthy |
| Tx:8.46 | only the decision to be unworthy of both. Yet you could not make | yourself unworthy, because you are the treasure of God. What He |
| Tx:8.47 | you, and He extends His Fatherhood to you so that you can extend | yourself as He did. You do not understand this, because you do not |
| Tx:8.48 | contradiction in terms which actually leaves nothing. [You can make | yourself powerless only in a way that has no meaning at all.] When |
| Tx:8.49 | There is no question but one you should ever ask of | yourself: “Do I want to know my Father's Will for me?” He will not |
| Tx:8.53 | physical. When attack in any form enters your mind, you are equating | yourself with a body. This is the ego's interpretation of the body. |
| Tx:8.53 | the idea of attack would have no appeal for you. When you equate | yourself with a body, you will always experience depression. When a |
| Tx:8.57 | and so are yours. You have attacked him, but you must have attacked | yourself first. Do not see him this way for your own salvation, which |
| Tx:8.58 | can perfectly accomplish His holy will for you when you so will it | yourself. He has not withdrawn His gifts from you, but you have |
| Tx:8.65 | except a means of pure extension is to limit your mind and hurt | yourself. Health is therefore nothing more than united purpose. If |
| Tx:8.66 | another as limited to or by the body, you are imposing this limit on | yourself. Are you willing to accept this, when your whole purpose for |
| Tx:8.67 | with His purpose, and you need salvation. You have condemned | yourself, but condemnation is not of God. Therefore, it is not true. |
| Tx:8.67 | brother as a body, you are condemning him because you have condemned | yourself. Yet if all condemnation is unreal, and it must be unreal |
| Tx:8.87 | Yet you cannot withdraw from me alone. You can only withdraw from | yourself and me. |
| Tx:8.88 | I give you no limits because God lays none upon you. When you limit | yourself, we are not of one mind and that is sickness. Yet sickness |
| Tx:8.103 | If it was never created, it is nothing. Can you really devote | yourself to nothing? |
| Tx:8.105 | depression, and ultimately panic, because you are trying to make | yourself unreal. When you feel these things, do not try to look |
| Tx:8.105 | unreal. When you feel these things, do not try to look beyond | yourself for truth, for truth can only be within you. Say, therefore, |
| Tx:8.110 | him and do not confound him, for your faith in him is your faith in | yourself. If you would know God and His Answer, believe in me whose |
| Tx:8.112 | mind to his and answers you. You cannot hear the Voice for God in | yourself alone because you are not alone. And His answer is only for |
| Tx:8.114 | way, you are looking for the truth in you. This is not going beyond | yourself but toward yourself. Hear only God's Answer in His Sons, and |
| Tx:8.114 | for the truth in you. This is not going beyond yourself but toward | yourself. Hear only God's Answer in His Sons, and you are answered. |
| Tx:9.4 | lack of correction for him. It is the giving up of correction in | yourself. |
| Tx:9.5 | right as you are, and if you think he is wrong, you are condemning | yourself. |
| Tx:9.6 | You cannot correct | yourself. Is it possible, then, for you to correct another? Yet you |
| Tx:9.6 | Yet you can see him truly because it is possible for you to see | yourself truly. It is not up to you to change him but merely to |
| Tx:9.7 | yours are of you. Accept his errors as real, and you have attacked | yourself. If you would find your way and keep it, see only truth |
| Tx:9.8 | to Him! You do not know how to use it. He will teach you how to see | yourself without condemnation by learning how to look on everything |
| Tx:9.9 | holds. Accept as true only what your brother is if you would know | yourself. Perceive what he is not, and you cannot know what you are, |
| Tx:9.12 | no sense and will not work. By following it, you will merely place | yourself in an impossible situation to which the ego always leads |
| Tx:9.13 | and begins to insist that you must accept the meaningless to save | yourself. Many have tried to do this in my name, forgetting that my |
| Tx:9.16 | how appropriately can you expect him to react? You might still ask | yourself, regardless of how you can account for the reactions, |
| Tx:9.25 | does or like the theologian, by acknowledging darkness in | yourself and looking for a distant light to remove it while |
| Tx:9.29 | As you awaken other minds to the Holy Spirit through Him and not | yourself, you will understand that you are not obeying the laws of |
| Tx:9.31 | react to you with joy even though you are not experiencing joy | yourself, there must be something in you that is capable of producing |
| Tx:9.31 | that it does produce joy in others, you must be dissociating it in | yourself. |
| Tx:9.33 | what you taught them. What you call upon in them, you call upon in | yourself. And as you call upon it in them, it becomes real to you. |
| Tx:9.33 | what you do to my brother you do to me, and if you do everything for | yourself because we are part of you, everything we do belongs to you |
| Tx:9.34 | learn of your wholeness until you see it everywhere. You can know | yourself only as God knows His Son, for knowledge is shared with God. |
| Tx:9.36 | reality which you can recognize. You cannot perform a miracle for | yourself, because miracles are a way of giving acceptance and |
| Tx:9.38 | salvation. Every minute and every second gives you a chance to save | yourself. Do not lose these chances, not because they will not |
| Tx:9.41 | You, then, have two conflicting evaluations of | yourself in your minds, and they cannot both be true. You do not yet |
| Tx:9.42 | with the ego's evaluation of what you are? If you are willing to see | yourself as unloving, you will not be happy. You are condemning |
| Tx:9.42 | see yourself as unloving, you will not be happy. You are condemning | yourself and must therefore regard yourself as inadequate. Would you |
| Tx:9.42 | not be happy. You are condemning yourself and must therefore regard | yourself as inadequate. Would you look to the ego to help you escape |
| Tx:9.49 | and viciousness. It remains suspicious as long as you despair of | yourself. It shifts to viciousness whenever you will not tolerate |
| Tx:9.52 | you hold it in your mind, protecting it from illusions and keeping | yourself in the Mind of God. Remember always that you cannot be |
| Tx:9.57 | to them. You cannot replace the Kingdom, and you cannot replace | yourself. God, Who knows your value, would not have it so, and so it |
| Tx:9.57 | value is in God's Mind and therefore not in yours alone. To accept | yourself as God created you cannot be arrogance, because it is the |
| Tx:9.57 | is arrogant, because it means that you believe your evaluation of | yourself is truer than God's. |
| Tx:9.58 | Yet if truth is indivisible, your evaluation of | yourself must be God's. You did not establish your value, and it |
| Tx:9.59 | Nothing beyond | yourself can make you fearful or loving, because nothing is beyond |
| Tx:9.59 | that anything which happens to you is caused by factors outside | yourself. You must learn that time is solely at your disposal, and |
| Tx:9.61 | much is up to you. When anything threatens your peace of mind, ask | yourself, |
| Tx:9.63 | for it is indeed changeless, and refuse to change your mind about | yourself. God will never decide against you, or He would be deciding |
| Tx:9.64 | for God. The law of creation is that you love your creations as | yourself because they are part of you. Everything that was created is |
| Tx:9.69 | your will to remember, for He retains the knowledge of God and of | yourself for you, waiting for your acceptance. Give up gladly |
| Tx:9.69 | your remembering of Him, for in this remembering is the knowledge of | yourself. |
| Tx:9.71 | When you attack, you are denying | yourself. You are specifically teaching yourself that you are not |
| Tx:9.71 | you attack, you are denying yourself. You are specifically teaching | yourself that you are not what you are. Your denial of reality |
| Tx:9.71 | part of God, you will understand why it is that you always attack | yourself first. |
| Tx:9.73 | you will look at it. By deciding against your reality, you have made | yourself vigilant against God and His Kingdom. And it is this |
| Tx:9.74 | No one can will to destroy himself. When you think you are attacking | yourself, it is a sure sign that you hate what you think you are. And |
| Tx:9.77 | Would you strengthen his denial of God and thus lose sight of | yourself? Or would you remind him of his wholeness and remember your |
| Tx:9.79 | but my love, for you do not value yourselves. When you do not value | yourself, you become sick, but my value of you can heal you because |
| Tx:9.82 | listen to. You made the god of sickness, and by making him, you made | yourself able to hear him. Yet you did not create him, because he is |
| Tx:9.82 | To accept other gods before Him is to place other images before | yourself. |
| Tx:9.84 | brothers; in fact, you would have to do so if you give him up for | yourself. For if you see him anywhere, you have accepted him. And if |
| Tx:9.90 | as what it is. No false gods you attempt to interpose between | yourself and your reality affect truth at all. Peace is yours because |
| Tx:9.94 | result in projection, and you will believe that others, and not | yourself, have done this to you. You will receive the message you |
| Tx:9.95 | not God-destructive. It means that you are willing not to know | yourself in order to be sick. This is the offering which your god |
| Tx:9.100 | Being. You are not sick, and you cannot die. But you can confuse | yourself with things that do. Remember, though, that to do this is |
| Tx:9.101 | If you will accept | yourself as God created you, you will be incapable of suffering. Yet |
| Tx:9.101 | because your acknowledgment of your Father is the acknowledgment of | yourself as you are. Your Father created you wholly without sin, |
| Tx:9.102 | You do not realize how much you have denied | yourself, and how much God in His love would not have it so. Yet He |
| Tx:9.102 | to you in your creation, and His gifts are eternal. Would you deny | yourself to Him? |
| Tx:9.103 | are not at home anywhere else or in any other condition. Do not deny | yourself the joy which was created for you for the misery you have |
| Tx:9.104 | of his reality. And as part of the Sonship, that is how you must see | yourself to learn of yours. |
| Tx:9.105 | and it is yours only because He has given it to you. Your gifts to | yourself are meaningless, but your gifts to your creations are like |
| Tx:9.106 | fatherhood gave you everything. That is why to deny Him is to deny | yourself. Arrogance is the denial of love, because love shares and |
| Tx:10.5 | anything else to the Sonship, recognizing your need of healing for | yourself? For in this lies the beginning of knowledge, the foundation |
| Tx:10.5 | of the Mind of God's Son you restore this reality, you restore it to | yourself. For you dwell in the Mind of God with your brother, for God |
| Tx:10.6 | and no endings in God, Whose universe is Himself. Can you exclude | yourself from the universe or from God, Who is the universe? I and my |
| Tx:10.13 | The projection of the ego makes it appear as if God's Will is outside | yourself and therefore not yours. In this interpretation, it is |
| Tx:10.16 | to unite your will with His, for He wills you Himself. And you will | yourself to Him because, in your perfect understanding of Him, you |
| Tx:10.17 | you have than those who have been healed by it? But be sure to count | yourself among them, for in your willingness to join them is your |
| Tx:10.18 | And denial is as total as love. You cannot deny part of | yourself because the remainder will seem to be unintegrated and |
| Tx:10.18 | it. To deny meaning must be to fail to understand. You can heal only | yourself, for only God's Son needs healing. He needs it because he |
| Tx:10.20 | enter, you lessen His welcome. He will remain, but you have allied | yourself against Him. Whatever journey you choose to take, He will go |
| Tx:10.23 | When you are weary, remember you have hurt | yourself. Your Comforter will rest you, but you cannot. You do not |
| Tx:10.31 | understanding is lost because you are looking on what God created as | yourself without love. And since what He created is part of Him, you |
| Tx:10.34 | Only you can deprive | yourself of anything. Do not oppose this realization, for it is truly |
| Tx:10.35 | part of you and you blame them for your deprivation, you are blaming | yourself. And you cannot blame yourself without blaming them. That is |
| Tx:10.35 | for your deprivation, you are blaming yourself. And you cannot blame | yourself without blaming them. That is why blame must be undone, not |
| Tx:10.35 | them. That is why blame must be undone, not re-allocated. Lay it to | yourself and you cannot know yourself, for only the ego blames at |
| Tx:10.35 | be undone, not re-allocated. Lay it to yourself and you cannot know | yourself, for only the ego blames at all. Self-blame is therefore ego |
| Tx:10.36 | be unable to enter the place where God would have you be. But love | yourself with the love of Christ, for so does your Father love you. |
| Tx:10.37 | appreciation of His Son. Christ waits for your acceptance of Him as | yourself and of His wholeness as yours. For Christ is the Son of God |
| Tx:10.47 | continue if you realize that, by accepting it, you are belittling | yourself and depriving yourself of power? |
| Tx:10.47 | that, by accepting it, you are belittling yourself and depriving | yourself of power? |
| Tx:10.48 | The ego can and does allow you to regard | yourself as supercilious, unbelieving, “light-hearted,” distant, |
| Tx:10.49 | cannot minimize it. For if you overlook love, you are overlooking | yourself, and you must fear unreality because you have denied |
| Tx:10.49 | yourself, and you must fear unreality because you have denied | yourself. By believing that you have successfully attacked truth, you |
| Tx:10.49 | that attack has power. Very simply, then, you have become afraid of | yourself. And no one wills to learn what he believes would destroy |
| Tx:10.62 | you, then, perceive unworthiness in a brother and not perceive it in | yourself? And can you perceive it in yourself and not perceive it in |
| Tx:10.62 | brother and not perceive it in yourself? And can you perceive it in | yourself and not perceive it in God? Believe in the resurrection |
| Tx:10.62 | God, which knows no time and no exceptions. But make no exceptions | yourself, or you will not perceive what has been accomplished for |
| Tx:10.66 | You have nailed | yourself to a cross and placed a crown of thorns upon your own head. |
| Tx:10.73 | that you can perceive the real world is to believe that you can know | yourself. You can know God because it is His Will to be known. The |
| Tx:10.76 | on your willingness to question everything you have learned of | yourself, for you who have learned amiss should not be your own |
| Tx:10.77 | for what is yours but which you did not make, and do not defend | yourself against truth. You made the problem which God has answered. |
| Tx:10.82 | but the real world is still yours for the asking. Do not deny it to | yourself, for it can only free you. Nothing of God will enslave His |
| Tx:10.84 | Be not deceived in God's Son, for thereby you must be deceived in | yourself. And being deceived in yourself, you are deceived in your |
| Tx:10.84 | for thereby you must be deceived in yourself. And being deceived in | yourself, you are deceived in your Father in Whom no deceit is |
| Tx:10.86 | real world as you share Heaven, and his healing is yours. To love | yourself is to heal yourself, and you cannot perceive part of you as |
| Tx:10.86 | share Heaven, and his healing is yours. To love yourself is to heal | yourself, and you cannot perceive part of you as sick and achieve |
| Tx:10.87 | in Him. If what you perceive offends you, you are offended in | yourself and are condemning God's Son, whom God condemneth not. Let |
| Tx:10.89 | frightened. It is not the reality of your brothers or your Father or | yourself which frightens you. You do not know what they are, and so |
| Tx:10.90 | For if God is not deceived in you, you can be deceived only in | yourself. Yet you can learn the truth of yourself of the Holy Spirit, |
| Tx:10.90 | you can be deceived only in yourself. Yet you can learn the truth of | yourself of the Holy Spirit, who will teach you that, as part of God, |
| Tx:10.90 | that, as part of God, deceit in you is impossible. When you perceive | yourself without deceit, you will accept the real world in place of |
| Tx:11.4 | for your unwillingness to perceive reality, which you withhold from | yourself. |
| Tx:11.8 | help you are asking for it, and if you perceive but one need in | yourself, you will be healed. For you will recognize God's answer as |
| Tx:11.11 | the loss, the basic cause of fear is removed. Thereby you teach | yourself that fear does not exist in you, for you have in yourself |
| Tx:11.11 | you teach yourself that fear does not exist in you, for you have in | yourself the means for removing it and have demonstrated this by |
| Tx:11.15 | forgotten. To perceive the healing of your brother as the healing of | yourself is thus the way to remember God. For you forgot your |
| Tx:11.16 | love. And to give a brother what he really wants is to offer it unto | yourself, for your Father wills you to know your brother as yourself. |
| Tx:11.16 | it unto yourself, for your Father wills you to know your brother as | yourself. Answer his call for love and yours is answered. Healing is |
| Tx:11.23 | to Him that is not of God is gone. Yet you must reveal it to | yourself in perfect willingness, for otherwise His knowledge remains |
| Tx:11.27 | you. Why would you insist in denying him? For to do so is to deny | yourself and impoverish both. He is asking for salvation, as you are. |
| Tx:11.28 | this is the only answer. Never lose sight of this, and never allow | yourself to believe even for an instant that there is another answer. |
| Tx:11.28 | an instant that there is another answer. For you will surely place | yourself among the poor, who do not understand that they dwell in |
| Tx:11.29 | To identify with the ego is to attack | yourself and make yourself poor. That is why everyone who identifies |
| Tx:11.29 | To identify with the ego is to attack yourself and make | yourself poor. That is why everyone who identifies with the ego feels |
| Tx:11.34 | maker along with his real salvation. Do not believe it is outside of | yourself, for only by recognizing where it is will you gain control |
| Tx:11.40 | whether you know where it is or not. If you believe it is outside | yourself, the search will be futile, for you will be seeking it where |
| Tx:11.40 | be seeking it where it is not. You do not know how to look within | yourself, for you do not believe your home is there. Yet the Holy |
| Tx:11.43 | the idea of attack can enter your mind, you must have perceived | yourself as weak. Because you had attacked yourself and believed that |
| Tx:11.43 | you must have perceived yourself as weak. Because you had attacked | yourself and believed that the attack was effective, you behold |
| Tx:11.43 | yourself and believed that the attack was effective, you behold | yourself as weakened. No longer perceiving yourself and all your |
| Tx:11.43 | was effective, you behold yourself as weakened. No longer perceiving | yourself and all your brothers as equal and regarding yourself as |
| Tx:11.43 | perceiving yourself and all your brothers as equal and regarding | yourself as weaker, you attempt to “equalize” the situation you have |
| Tx:11.44 | recognizing that attack has no effect. Although you have attacked | yourself, and very brutally, you will demonstrate that nothing |
| Tx:11.44 | invulnerability has more than negative value. If your attacks on | yourself have failed to weaken you, you are still strong. You |
| Tx:11.45 | uselessness of attack except by recognizing that your attack on | yourself had no effects. For others do react to attack if they |
| Tx:11.45 | The only place where you can cancel out all reinforcement is in | yourself. For you are always the first point of your attack, and if |
| Tx:11.47 | your limited resources. He becomes your resource because, of | yourself, you cannot learn. The learning situation in which you |
| Tx:11.47 | you cannot learn. The learning situation in which you placed | yourself is impossible, and in this situation you clearly require a |
| Tx:11.50 | have chosen is against love and amounts to a course in how to attack | yourself. A necessary minor, supplementing this major curriculum |
| Tx:11.51 | do not will should take heart, for although the curriculum you set | yourself is depressing indeed, it is merely ridiculous if you look at |
| Tx:11.53 | To invest in something without profit is surely to impoverish | yourself, and the overhead is high. Not only is there no profit in |
| Tx:11.55 | the projection of loving thoughts outward. Make the world real unto | yourself, for the real world is the gift of the Holy Spirit, and so |
| Tx:11.61 | whole, and the Atonement will radiate from your acceptance of it for | yourself to everyone the Holy Spirit sends you for your blessing. In |
| Tx:11.67 | his witnesses. This is why you find what you seek. What you want in | yourself, you will make manifest by projection, and you will accept |
| Tx:11.70 | within and thought you saw the power to give something else within | yourself. It was only this decision that determined what you found, |
| Tx:11.74 | look without and react unfavorably to what you see, you have judged | yourself unworthy and have condemned yourself to death. The death |
| Tx:11.74 | what you see, you have judged yourself unworthy and have condemned | yourself to death. The death penalty is the ego's ultimate goal, for |
| Tx:11.75 | that death comes from God and not from the ego because, by confusing | yourself with the ego, you believe that you want death. And from what |
| Tx:11.76 | will never see death. For you will have looked upon the deathless in | yourself, and you will see only the eternal as you look out upon a |
| Tx:11.80 | you have not heard is the only answer. God would reunite you with | yourself and did not abandon you in your seeming distress. You are |
| Tx:11.94 | projecting separation in place of unity. You can condemn only | yourself, and by so doing, you cannot know that you are God's Son. |
| Tx:11.99 | The ego teaches you to attack | yourself because you are guilty, and this must increase the guilt, |
| Tx:11.99 | he knows this is true. And being true for you, you cannot attack | yourself, for without guilt, attack is impossible. You, then, are |
| Tx:12.2 | you are no longer you, you do not realize that you are failing | yourself. |
| Tx:12.5 | and you are afraid to find him. You have handled this wish to kill | yourself by not knowing who you are and identifying with something |
| Tx:12.7 | then, believe that by not learning the course, you are protecting | yourself. And you do not realize that it is only your guiltlessness |
| Tx:12.8 | it for you, you have rejected it and have not accepted it for | yourself. You have recognized the futility of the ego and its |
| Tx:12.8 | fear. For you believe that in the presence of truth you will turn on | yourself and destroy yourself. |
| Tx:12.8 | that in the presence of truth you will turn on yourself and destroy | yourself. |
| Tx:12.10 | you and dispel it, without the need for you to raise it to awareness | yourself. Yet there is one more complication which you have |
| Tx:12.10 | Yet there is one more complication which you have interposed between | yourself and the Atonement, which you do not yet realize. We have |
| Tx:12.11 | if you did not believe that, without the ego, you would find within | yourself something you fear even more. You are not afraid of |
| Tx:12.14 | think you would be helpless in God's Presence, and you would save | yourself from His love because you think it would crush you into |
| Tx:12.14 | you into nothingness. You are afraid it would sweep you away from | yourself and make you little. For you believe that magnitude lies in |
| Tx:12.19 | your mind where the Holy Spirit is not welcome. And you will exempt | yourself from His healing power, for by not offering total love, you |
| Tx:12.27 | past because, by making it real in the present, you are forbidding | yourself to let it go. You thus deny yourself the message of release |
| Tx:12.27 | the present, you are forbidding yourself to let it go. You thus deny | yourself the message of release that every brother offers you now. |
| Tx:12.29 | from your sight. The Holy Spirit teaches that you always meet | yourself and the encounter is holy because you are. The ego teaches |
| Tx:12.35 | in their own private world. And thus it is that you must attack | yourself first, for what you attack is not in others. Its only |
| Tx:12.37 | it. Yet fear attracts you, and believing it is love, you call it to | yourself. Your private world is filled with the figures of fear you |
| Tx:12.38 | And the vision of Christ is not in your sight, for you look upon | yourself alone. |
| Tx:12.39 | would you offer this to your Father? For if you offer it to | yourself, you are offering it to Him. And He will not return it, for |
| Tx:12.39 | set you free. His sane answer tells you that what you have offered | yourself is not true, but His offering to you has never changed. You |
| Tx:12.40 | see all that you denied in your brothers because you denied it in | yourself. For you will love them, and by drawing nigh unto them, you |
| Tx:12.40 | will love them, and by drawing nigh unto them, you will draw them to | yourself, perceiving them as witnesses to your reality, which you |
| Tx:12.45 | and cherish instead of him. In your questioning of illusions, ask | yourself if it is really sane to perceive what was now. If you |
| Tx:12.56 | to you. In sleep you are alone, and your awareness is narrowed to | yourself. And that is why the nightmares come. You dream of isolation |
| Tx:12.58 | Sit quietly and look upon the world you see, and tell | yourself, |
| Tx:12.63 | You have been wrong about the world because you have misjudged | yourself. From such a twisted reference point what could you see? All |
| Tx:12.64 | company and learned of Him the joyful journey home. You wait but for | yourself. To give this sad world over and exchange your errors for |
| Tx:12.66 | that is wholly true and wholly yours. For all else you have lent | yourself in time, and it will fade. But this one thing is always |
| Tx:12.68 | do need things because it is a world of scarcity in which you find | yourself because you are lacking. Yet can you find yourself in such a |
| Tx:12.68 | in which you find yourself because you are lacking. Yet can you find | yourself in such a world? Without the Holy Spirit, the answer would |
| Tx:12.69 | yourselves what you need, for you do not know and your advice unto | yourself will hurt you. For what you think you need will merely serve |
| Tx:12.75 | together. The Holy Spirit will teach you to awaken unto us and to | yourself. This is the only real need to be fulfilled in time. |
| Tx:13.8 | When you have seen your brothers as | yourself, you will be released to knowledge, having learned to free |
| Tx:13.8 | yourself, you will be released to knowledge, having learned to free | yourself of Him Who knows of freedom. Unite with me under the holy |
| Tx:13.8 | in the eternity of God the Father. The holy light you saw outside | yourself in every miracle you offered to your brothers will be |
| Tx:13.12 | obeying the ego's harsh commandments, you bring its condemnation of | yourself, and you will not escape the punishment it offers those who |
| Tx:13.15 | love. Nothing can justify insanity, and to call for punishment upon | yourself must be insane. |
| Tx:13.16 | then, as guilty, and you will affirm the truth of guiltlessness unto | yourself. In every condemnation that you offer the Son of God lies |
| Tx:13.24 | to the Atonement. When everyone is welcome to you as you would have | yourself be welcome to your Father, you will see no guilt in you. For |
| Tx:13.32 | him. For in our love of him is your guiltlessness. But look upon | yourself, and gladness and appreciation for what you see will banish |
| Tx:13.43 | you will learn how to save. It will not be possible to exempt | yourself from what the Holy Spirit wills to teach you. Salvation is |
| Tx:13.48 | have not. If, then, you offer blessing, it must have come first to | yourself. And you must also have accepted it as yours, for how else |
| Tx:13.49 | forgiveness, you must have let guilt go, accepting the Atonement for | yourself and learning you are guiltless. How could you learn what has |
| Tx:13.52 | Anything you deny which He knows to be true, you have denied | yourself, and He must therefore teach you not to deny it. Undoing is |
| Tx:13.66 | your happiness and will not learn how to be happy. Say therefore to | yourself gently, but with the conviction born of the love of God and |
| Tx:13.71 | can, you teach him that the Atonement, which you have accepted for | yourself, is also his. There is nothing to forgive. No one can hurt |
| Tx:13.72 | not of Him. Teach no one he has hurt you, for if you do, you teach | yourself that what is not of God has power over you. The causeless |
| Tx:13.73 | Whenever you decide to make decisions for | yourself, you are thinking destructively, and the decision will be |
| Tx:13.73 | which led to it. It is not true that you can make decisions by | yourself or for yourself alone. No thought of God's Son can be |
| Tx:13.73 | to it. It is not true that you can make decisions by yourself or for | yourself alone. No thought of God's Son can be separate or isolated |
| Tx:13.75 | It will never happen that you will have to make decisions for | yourself. You are not bereft of help, and Help that knows the answer. |
| Tx:13.75 | you be content with little, which is all that you alone can offer | yourself, when He Who gives you everything will simply offer it to |
| Tx:13.76 | deny the truth of God's decision and place your pitiful appraisal of | yourself in place of His calm and unswerving value of His Son? |
| Tx:13.80 | everyone who struggles in the dark. For you decide for them and for | yourself. |
| Tx:13.81 | love is given equally to all alike! He leaves you no one outside | yourself, alone without you. And so He gives you what is yours |
| Tx:13.81 | any way by the decision. And everyone will be. Would you take unto | yourself the sole responsibility for deciding what can bring only |
| Tx:13.82 | with Him and with everything that is within Him, as it is within | yourself. Unlearn isolation through His loving guidance and learn of |
| Tx:13.83 | in doubt what you should do, think of His Presence in you and tell | yourself this and only this: |
| Tx:13.90 | Decide that God is right and you are wrong about | yourself. He created you out of Himself but still within Him. He |
| Tx:13.90 | and deceit, for thus are darkness and deceit undone. Fail not | yourself, but instead offer to God and you His blameless Son. For |
| Tx:13.91 | Before you make any decisions for | yourself, remember that you have decided against your function in |
| Tx:13.91 | So will He teach you to remove the awful burden you have laid upon | yourself by loving not the Son of God and trying to teach him guilt |
| Tx:14.7 | extension of perfect purity. Your only calling here is to devote | yourself with active willingness to the denial of guilt in all its |
| Tx:14.11 | No one can be untouched by teaching such as this. You will not see | yourself beyond the power of God if you teach only this. You will not |
| Tx:14.29 | Leave that to Him Who knows. You are not asked to do mighty tasks | yourself. You are merely asked to do the little He suggests you do, |
| Tx:14.55 | you are not alone and willing to remember it. Take no thought for | yourself, for no thought you hold is for yourself. If you would |
| Tx:14.55 | it. Take no thought for yourself, for no thought you hold is for | yourself. If you would remember your Father, let the Holy Spirit |
| Tx:14.64 | When your peace is threatened or disturbed in any way, say to | yourself, |
| Tx:14.66 | By this refusal to attempt to teach | yourself what you do not know, the Guide Whom God has given you will |
| Tx:14.68 | so firmly bound to guilt and committed so to remain, establish for | yourself your guiltlessness? That is impossible. But be sure that you |
| Tx:14.75 | they could not be of you. Leave room for Him, and you will find | yourself so filled with power that nothing will prevail against your |
| Tx:15.11 | there is no change in God. In the holy instant in which you see | yourself as bright with freedom, you will remember God. For |
| Tx:15.12 | of how long it would take to change your mind so completely, ask | yourself, “How long is an instant?” Could you not give so short a |
| Tx:15.14 | perfect peace, and perfect love for everyone, for God, and for | yourself. As long as it takes to remember immortality and your |
| Tx:15.21 | and begin to experience it as timeless, is to begin to experience | yourself as not separate. Fear not that you will not be given help in |
| Tx:15.22 | could never be content with it. Littleness is the offering you gave | yourself. You offered this in place of magnitude, and you accepted |
| Tx:15.22 | with the belief that it will bring you peace, you are belittling | yourself and blinding yourself to glory. Littleness and glory are the |
| Tx:15.22 | it will bring you peace, you are belittling yourself and blinding | yourself to glory. Littleness and glory are the choices open to your |
| Tx:15.23 | each time you choose is that your choice is your evaluation of | yourself. Choose littleness and you will not have peace, for you will |
| Tx:15.23 | littleness and you will not have peace, for you will have judged | yourself unworthy of it. And whatever you offer as a substitute is |
| Tx:15.24 | There is a deep responsibility you owe | yourself, and one which you must learn to remember all the time. The |
| Tx:15.24 | what you think you are and represents the value that you put upon | yourself. Believe the little can content you, and by limiting |
| Tx:15.24 | upon yourself. Believe the little can content you, and by limiting | yourself, you will not be satisfied. For your function is not little, |
| Tx:15.26 | make on behalf of His dear Son. Search for the little, and you deny | yourself His power. God is not willing that His Son be content with |
| Tx:15.28 | can be content with littleness are the decisions you have made about | yourself. The power and the glory that lie in you from God are for |
| Tx:15.30 | Before the greatness that lives in you, your poor appreciation of | yourself and all the little offerings you have given slip into |
| Tx:15.31 | Remember that you learn not for | yourself alone, no more than I did. It is because I learned for you |
| Tx:15.32 | are complete, in need of nothing, and unable to accept anything for | yourself. But you will gladly give, having received. The host of God |
| Tx:15.33 | to the plan of God and unwilling to attempt to grasp for peace | yourself, salvation will be given you. Yet think not you can |
| Tx:15.38 | that you alone cannot know where it is and can only deceive | yourself. |
| Tx:15.41 | would not share and that salvation lies in keeping your thoughts to | yourself alone. For in private thoughts, known only to yourself, you |
| Tx:15.41 | thoughts to yourself alone. For in private thoughts, known only to | yourself, you think you find a way to keep what you would have alone |
| Tx:15.43 | to accept perfect communication as long as you would hide it from | yourself. For what you would hide is hidden from you. |
| Tx:15.44 | deception and seek not to protect the thoughts you would keep unto | yourself. Let the Holy Spirit's purity shine them away and bring all |
| Tx:15.46 | you are alone. To be alone is to be guilty. For to experience | yourself as alone is to deny the oneness of the Father and his Son |
| Tx:15.50 | but you have also judged against both. Yet you had judged against | yourself first, or you would never have imagined that you needed them |
| Tx:15.50 | imagined that you needed them as they were not. Unless you had seen | yourself as without love, you could not have judged them so like you |
| Tx:15.52 | the values from the past, you would see them all the same and like | yourself. Nor would you see any separation between yourself and them. |
| Tx:15.52 | the same and like yourself. Nor would you see any separation between | yourself and them. In the holy instant, you see in each relationship |
| Tx:15.56 | ability to satisfy you completely arises only from perfect faith in | yourself. And this you cannot have while guilt remains. And there |
| Tx:15.57 | You have so little faith in | yourself because you are unwilling to accept the fact that perfect |
| Tx:15.58 | and what you gain he loses. Someone must always lose if you perceive | yourself as weak. Yet there is another interpretation of |
| Tx:15.59 | that, like your Father, you are an idea. And like Him, you can give | yourself completely, wholly without loss, and only with gain. |
| Tx:15.63 | idea of peace, for in ideas minds can communicate. If you would give | yourself as your Father gives His Self, you will learn to understand |
| Tx:15.68 | to but one insane belief—that the more anger you invest outside | yourself, the safer you become. |
| Tx:15.75 | with you while you believe that to communicate is to make | yourself alone? It is clearly insane to believe that by communicating |
| Tx:15.78 | makes you His in your awareness. And here it is that you experience | yourself as you were created and as you are. |
| Tx:15.93 | of receiving sacrifice as God is, and every sacrifice you ask of | yourself, you ask of me. Learn now that sacrifice of any kind is |
| Tx:15.99 | You think that everyone outside | yourself demands your sacrifice, but you do not see that only you |
| Tx:15.99 | but you do not see that only you demand sacrifice and only of | yourself. Yet the demand of sacrifice is so savage and so fearful |
| Tx:15.100 | to understand. Do not try to project it from you and see it outside | yourself. In you are both the question and the answer—the demand |
| Tx:15.101 | solely of your making. And seek not safety by attempting to protect | yourself from where it is not. Your brothers and your Father have |
| Tx:15.102 | sign of Christmas is a star, a light in darkness. See it not outside | yourself but shining in the Heaven within and accept it as the sign |
| Tx:15.103 | Christmas, give the Holy Spirit everything that would hurt you. Let | yourself be healed completely that you may join with Him in healing, |
| Tx:15.104 | God. Through guilt you exclude your Father and your brothers from | yourself. Through peace you invite them back and realize that they |
| Tx:15.104 | they are where your invitation bids them be. What you excluded from | yourself seems fearful, for you endowed it with fear and tried to |
| Tx:15.105 | as you perceive the body as your reality, so long will you perceive | yourself as lonely and deprived. And so long will you also perceive |
| Tx:15.105 | yourself as lonely and deprived. And so long will you also perceive | yourself as a victim of sacrifice, justified in sacrificing others. |
| Tx:15.106 | recognize it. The meaning of love lies in what you have cast outside | yourself, and it has no meaning at all apart from you. It is what you |
| Tx:16.11 | another way in which you would still try to keep understanding to | yourself. A better and far more helpful way to think of miracles is |
| Tx:16.19 | you, nor will you ever do so. You have never tried to solve anything | yourself and been successful. Is it not time you brought these facts |
| Tx:16.22 | and they shall know themselves.” For it is certain that you judge | yourself according to your teaching. The ego's teaching produces |
| Tx:16.22 | your choice. And this acceptance means that you are willing to judge | yourself accordingly. Cause and effect are very clear in the ego's |
| Tx:16.22 | And would you not have faith in what you have so diligently taught | yourself to believe? Yet remember how much care you have exerted in |
| Tx:16.23 | Sonship as one? And does it not also show you that you do not regard | yourself as one? For it is impossible to teach successfully wholly |
| Tx:16.23 | you did believe in it. And it must be that what you taught came from | yourself. And yet, this Self you clearly do not know and do not |
| Tx:16.24 | This is a course in how to know | yourself. You have taught what you are but have not let what you are |
| Tx:16.24 | be that has not learned it? It must be this that is really outside | yourself, not by your own projection, but in truth. And it is this |
| Tx:16.24 | between truth and illusion can only be resolved by separating | yourself from the illusion and not from truth. |
| Tx:16.25 | to you for their creation they offer gladly to your teaching of | yourself, who is their home. You who are host to God are also host to |
| Tx:16.26 | have taught this, and from far off in the universe, yet not beyond | yourself, the witnesses to your teaching have gathered to help you |
| Tx:16.26 | and apart from it. But with them you must learn that you but taught | yourself and learned from the conviction you shared with them. |
| Tx:16.31 | through this last undoing quite unharmed and will at last emerge as | yourself. This is the last step in the readiness for God. Be not |
| Tx:16.35 | seek for love but merely to seek and find all of the barriers within | yourself which you have built against it. It is not necessary to seek |
| Tx:16.35 | from one illusion into another must fail. If you seek love outside | yourself, you can be certain that you perceive hatred within and are |
| Tx:16.39 | The bridge that leads to union in | yourself must lead to knowledge, for it was built with God beside you |
| Tx:16.54 | evident impossibility? For if it were possible, you would have made | yourself helpless. God is not angry. He merely could not let this |
| Tx:16.56 | And to the same extent you are denying truth, and so are making | yourself unable to make the simple choice between truth and illusion, |
| Tx:16.57 | And unless love's meaning is restored to you, you cannot know | yourself, who shares its meaning. Separation is only the decision not |
| Tx:16.57 | who shares its meaning. Separation is only the decision not to know | yourself. Its whole thought system is a carefully contrived learning |
| Tx:16.59 | The search for the special relationship is the sign that you equate | yourself with the ego and not with God. For the special relationship |
| Tx:16.60 | Love is freedom. To look for it by placing | yourself in bondage is to separate yourself from it. For the love of |
| Tx:16.60 | To look for it by placing yourself in bondage is to separate | yourself from it. For the love of God, no longer seek for union in |
| Tx:16.66 | will abide with you. Your love for it will not allow you to betray | yourself, and you could not enter into a relationship where it could |
| Tx:16.74 | is that the special relationship is the acting out of vengeance on | yourself. But what else could it be? In seeking the special |
| Tx:16.74 | be? In seeking the special relationship, you look not for glory in | yourself. You have denied that it is there, and the relationship |
| Tx:17.3 | must do to your appreciation of the whole! What you reserve unto | yourself, you take away from Him Who would release you. Unless you |
| Tx:17.6 | to solve his problems through fantasy, you are refusing to forgive | yourself for just this same attempt. And you are holding both of you |
| Tx:17.7 | He was created to see this for you until you learn to see it for | yourself. And all His teaching leads to seeing it and giving thanks |
| Tx:17.15 | witness will enable you to think guiltily of another and not harm | yourself. They speak so clearly for the separation that no one not |
| Tx:17.16 | as their purpose the exclusion of the truth about the other and of | yourself. This is why you see in both what is not there and make of |
| Tx:17.54 | result, you do not realize that it is with you still. And by cutting | yourself off from its expression, you have denied yourself its |
| Tx:17.54 | And by cutting yourself off from its expression, you have denied | yourself its benefit. You reinforce this every time you attack each |
| Tx:17.54 | every time you attack each other, for the attack must blind you to | yourself. And it is impossible to deny yourself and recognize what |
| Tx:17.54 | the attack must blind you to yourself. And it is impossible to deny | yourself and recognize what has been given and received by you. |
| Tx:17.64 | To remove the problem elsewhere is to keep it. For you remove | yourself from it and make it unsolvable. |
| Tx:17.65 | that all your problems have been solved, but you have removed | yourself from the solution? Yet faith must be where something has |
| Tx:17.68 | Every situation in which you find | yourself is but a means to meet the purpose set for your |
| Tx:17.71 | in every aspect and complete in every part. You can leave nothing of | yourself outside it and keep the situation holy. For it shares the |
| Tx:17.78 | His faithlessness did this to him. Think carefully before you let | yourself use faithlessness against him. For he is risen, and you have |
| Tx:18.8 | gently by the hand and retraces with you your mad journey outside | yourself, leading you gently back to the truth and safety within. He |
| Tx:18.14 | outraged by the “attack.” This would not be your wish unless you saw | yourself as one with the ego, which always looks upon itself and |
| Tx:18.19 | is your determination to keep your hold on unreality and to prevent | yourself from waking. And while you see more value in sleeping than |
| Tx:18.33 | it is. And in your willingness for this lies also your acceptance of | yourself as you were meant to be. |
| Tx:18.34 | it. And what is this but the determination to be as you would make | yourself? God did not create His dwelling-place unworthy of Him. And |
| Tx:18.35 | Will. You have been wrong in thinking that it is needful to prepare | yourself for Him. It is impossible to make arrogant preparations for |
| Tx:18.35 | nor can you make him different. Would you first make a miracle | yourself and then expect one to be made for you? |
| Tx:18.36 | is given. In preparing for the holy instant, do not attempt to make | yourself holy to be ready to receive it. That is but to confuse your |
| Tx:18.36 | is of God alone and therefore for you. Rather than seek to prepare | yourself for Him, try to think thus: |
| Tx:18.38 | fearful. And it is only fear that you will add if you prepare | yourself for love. The preparation for the holy instant belongs to |
| Tx:18.41 | fear to happy dreams from which you waken easily to knowledge. Put | yourself not in charge of this, for you cannot distinguish between |
| Tx:18.45 | It is no dream to love your brother as | yourself. Nor is your holy relationship a dream. All that remains of |
| Tx:18.50 | belief that you could give and get something else, something outside | yourself, has cost you the awareness of Heaven and the loss of your |
| Tx:18.55 | The minds are joined, but you do not identify with them. You see | yourself locked in a separate prison, removed and unreachable, |
| Tx:18.56 | you set aside to house your hate is not a prison but an illusion of | yourself. The body is a limit imposed on the universal communication |
| Tx:18.57 | without alternative. And so it is. You cannot put a barrier around | yourself because God placed none between Himself and you. |
| Tx:18.59 | realize that it is a sudden unawareness of the body and a joining of | yourself and something else in which your mind enlarges to encompass |
| Tx:18.59 | it. You have accepted this instead of the body and have let | yourself be one with something beyond it simply by not letting your |
| Tx:18.62 | irresistible appeal the holy instant holds. It calls to you to be | yourself within its safe embrace. There are the laws of limit lifted |
| Tx:18.62 | of mind and freedom. Come to this place of refuge, where you can be | yourself in peace. Not through destruction, not through a “breaking |
| Tx:18.71 | was made to limit you. Can you who see yourselves within a body know | yourself as an idea? Everything you recognize you identify with |
| Tx:18.77 | Do not accept this little fenced-off aspect as | yourself. The sun and ocean are as nothing beside what you are. The |
| Tx:18.80 | locked away from love and leaving you inside. And you will recognize | yourself and see your little garden gently transformed into the |
| Tx:18.84 | must be corrected at its source. Therefore, it is the tiny part of | yourself, the little thought that seems split off and separate, which |
| Tx:18.92 | no more impenetrable and no more substantial. You will not bruise | yourself against them in traveling through. Let your Guide teach you |
| Tx:19.6 | Both cannot be together nor perceived in the same place. To dedicate | yourself to both is to set up a goal forever impossible to attain, |
| Tx:19.10 | is to heal. It is the sign that you have accepted the Atonement for | yourself and would therefore share it. By faith you offer the gift of |
| Tx:19.11 | loving Father, loved by Him like you and therefore loved by you as | yourself. It is His love that joins you, and for His love you would |
| Tx:19.24 | to be sinful than mistaken. Yet think you carefully before you allow | yourself to make this choice. Approach it not lightly, for it is the |
| Tx:19.36 | separate, but your Redeemer would have you look upon each other as | yourself. Your relationship is now a temple of healing—a place |
| Tx:19.58 | To think you could be satisfied and happy with so little is to hurt | yourself, and to limit the happiness that you would have calls upon |
| Tx:19.65 | end of guilt, remembering that what I signify to you, you see within | yourself? |
| Tx:19.71 | really punitive at all. It is but the inevitable result of equating | yourself with the body, which is the invitation to pain. For it |
| Tx:19.74 | that for your message of attack and guilt will someone other than | yourself suffer. And even if you suffer, yet someone else will suffer |
| Tx:19.74 | peace, it urges you to send out all your messages of hate and free | yourself. And to convince you this is possible, it bids the body |
| Tx:19.101 | is very fearful. And you attack him still, to keep what seems to be | yourself unharmed. Yet in his hands is your salvation. You see his |
| Tx:20.7 | their own. Here is the value that you lay upon your brother and on | yourself. Here is your gift to both; your judgment on the Son of God |
| Tx:20.7 | Offer him thorns and you are crucified. Offer him lilies and it is | yourself you free. |
| Tx:20.18 | adjust to it, and it to you. Nor is there any difference between | yourself and it in your perception, which made them both. |
| Tx:20.19 | this up. It is a picture of what you think you are, of how you see | yourself. A murderer is frightened, and those who kill fear death. |
| Tx:20.20 | look through happy eyes? The world you see is but a judgment on | yourself. It is not there at all. Yet judgment lays a sentence on it, |
| Tx:20.20 | it, and makes it real. Such is the world you see—a judgment on | yourself and made by you. This sickly picture of yourself is |
| Tx:20.20 | see—a judgment on yourself and made by you. This sickly picture of | yourself is carefully preserved by the ego, whose image it is and |
| Tx:20.35 | way to peace is open. Perhaps this seems impossible to you. But ask | yourself if it is possible that God would have a plan for your |
| Tx:20.65 | achieve its purpose through the means of sin? Judgment you taught | yourself; vision is learned from Him Who would undo your teaching. |
| Tx:20.74 | you did this. Once you accept this simple fact and take unto | yourself the power you gave them, you are released from them. One |
| Tx:21.2 | Damnation is your judgment on | yourself, and this you will project upon the world. See it as damned, |
| Tx:21.2 | [The world you see but shows you how much joy you have allowed | yourself to see in you and to accept as yours. And if this is its |
| Tx:21.9 | you knew so long ago and held more dear than any melody you taught | yourself to cherish since. |
| Tx:21.16 | Deceive | yourself no longer that you are helpless in the face of what is done |
| Tx:21.17 | you offer to the Holy Spirit, and even this He gave to you to give | yourself. For by this gift is given you the power to release your |
| Tx:21.19 | testimony, and as it gave it back to you, you listened and convinced | yourself that what it saw was true. You did this to yourself. See |
| Tx:21.19 | and convinced yourself that what it saw was true. You did this to | yourself. See only this, and you will also see how circular the |
| Tx:21.19 | you look upon the change in him, it will be given you to see it in | yourself. |
| Tx:21.26 | made the world you see as that you recognize that you did not create | yourself. They are the same mistake. Nothing created not by your |
| Tx:21.26 | to do so, you are denying your Creator and believing that you made | yourself. For if you think the world you made has power to make you |
| Tx:21.29 | bargain in the name of “fairness,” sometimes demanding payment of | yourself, perhaps more often of the other. Thus in the “fairness” you |
| Tx:21.50 | and see what it directs you see, and it is sure that you will see | yourself as tiny, vulnerable, and afraid. You will experience |
| Tx:21.59 | If it can correct and you allow it not to do so, you deny it to | yourself and to your brother. And if he shares this same belief, you |
| Tx:21.59 | both will think that you are damned. This you could spare him and | yourself. For reason would not make way for correction in you alone. |
| Tx:21.60 | it can. Yet reason tells you that you cannot see your brother or | yourself as sinful and still perceive the other innocent. Who looks |
| Tx:21.62 | the body against your reason, you will not understand the body or | yourself. |
| Tx:21.64 | tell you that this fact is your release. Neither your brother nor | yourself can be attacked alone. But neither can accept a miracle |
| Tx:21.65 | of his errors and make him whole. The instant that you choose to let | yourself be healed, in that same instant is his whole salvation seen |
| Tx:21.78 | on the effects of sin in any form, all you need do is simply ask | yourself, |
| Tx:22.5 | if you are his will, what you must then believe is that you are not | yourself. You can indeed believe this, and you do. And you have faith |
| Tx:22.5 | of being disconnected, and your haunting fear of lack of meaning in | yourself arise? It is as though you wandered in without a plan of any |
| Tx:22.7 | are something else, this “something else” which you have made to be | yourself became your sight. Yet it must be the “something else” which |
| Tx:22.11 | was you. He was not given there, nor was received by anything except | yourself. For no two people can unite except through Christ, Whose |
| Tx:22.21 | but what you made believes it is not so. Now must you choose between | yourself and an illusion of yourself. Not both, but one. There is no |
| Tx:22.21 | is not so. Now must you choose between yourself and an illusion of | yourself. Not both, but one. There is no point in trying to avoid |
| Tx:22.26 | of him what God has given him for you, not what you tried to give | yourself. |
| Tx:22.28 | from all effects of sin. Would you have partial forgiveness for | yourself? Can you reach Heaven while a single sin still tempts you to |
| Tx:22.28 | and God created it for you. Look on your holy brother, sinless as | yourself, and let him lead you there. |
| Tx:22.36 | gave him not his holiness but tried to see your sins in him to save | yourself. And yet his holiness is your forgiveness. Can you be saved |
| Tx:22.47 | uncertainty can be defensive. And all uncertainty is doubt about | yourself. |
| Tx:22.50 | the need arise to be defensive about anything, you have identified | yourself with an illusion. And therefore feel that you are weak |
| Tx:22.56 | The gentle service that you give the Holy Spirit is service to | yourself. You who are now His means must love all that He loves. And |
| Tx:22.60 | Is this humility? You do not see what this belief has done. You see | yourself as vulnerable, frail, and easily destroyed and at the mercy |
| Tx:22.61 | separate because of fear. For it seems safer to attack another or | yourself than to attack the great Creator of the universe, whose |
| Tx:22.62 | the whole, the Son without the Father, and to attack another without | yourself or hurt yourself without the other feeling pain. And this |
| Tx:22.62 | without the Father, and to attack another without yourself or hurt | yourself without the other feeling pain. And this belief you want. |
| Tx:23.2 | How strange indeed becomes this war against | yourself! You will believe that everything you use for sin can hurt |
| Tx:23.8 | Do you not realize a war against | yourself would be a war on God? Is victory conceivable? And if it |
| Tx:23.9 | Be certain that it is impossible God and the ego, or | yourself and it, will ever meet. You seem to meet and make your |
| Tx:23.9 | —an error in your self-appraisal. The ego joins with an illusion of | yourself you share with it. And yet illusions cannot join. They are |
| Tx:23.10 | Brothers, the war against | yourself is almost over. The journey's end is at the place of peace. |
| Tx:23.11 | what shall be part of you and what is kept apart. The war against | yourself was undertaken to teach the Son of God that he is not |
| Tx:23.11 | and you have not forgotten what you are. Only a strange illusion of | yourself, a wish to triumph over what you are, remembers not. |
| Tx:23.12 | The war against | yourself is but the battle of two illusions, struggling to make them |
| Tx:23.13 | when you have learned you cannot be in conflict. One illusion about | yourself can battle with another, yet the war of two illusions is a |
| Tx:23.14 | is not part of you. And by attacking it, you make two illusions of | yourself in conflict with each other. And this occurs whenever you |
| Tx:23.14 | through battle. Why would you fill your world with conflicts with | yourself? Let all this madness be undone for you and turn in peace to |
| Tx:23.16 | The stillness of your certainty of Him and of | yourself is home to both of you, who dwell as one and not apart. Open |
| Tx:23.27 | thus it fails to recognize that you can never take away save from | yourself. Yet all the other laws must lead to this. For enemies do |
| Tx:23.28 | been withheld; and the inevitable loss the enemy must suffer to save | yourself. Thus do the guilty ones protest their “innocence.” Were |
| Tx:24.12 | by comparison with what you see. Nor do you understand it is | yourself that you diminish thus. |
| Tx:24.13 | value specialness is to esteem an alien will to which illusions of | yourself are dearer than the truth. |
| Tx:24.18 | his function, any more than you can change the truth in him and in | yourself. But be you certain that the truth is just the same in both. |
| Tx:24.19 | Think of the loveliness that you will see within | yourself when you have looked on him as on a friend. He is the enemy |
| Tx:24.20 | so encompassing that nothing stands outside. Leave all illusions of | yourself outside this place to which you come in hope and honesty. |
| Tx:24.24 | for conflict everlasting. Here are the gates of hell you closed upon | yourself, to rule in madness and in loneliness your special kingdom, |
| Tx:24.25 | You but emerge from an illusion of what you are to the acceptance of | yourself as God created you. |
| Tx:24.27 | your puny might against the Will of God. And thus it stands against | yourself; your enemy, not God's. So does it seem to split you off |
| Tx:24.27 | brother's birthright to it, leaving him alone and unforgiven and | yourself in sin beside him, both in misery before the idol that can |
| Tx:24.33 | but that your will be done. They seek your love that you may love | yourself. Love not your specialness instead of them. The print of |
| Tx:24.34 | Specialness is a lack of trust in anyone except | yourself. Faith is invested in yourself alone. Everything else |
| Tx:24.34 | is a lack of trust in anyone except yourself. Faith is invested in | yourself alone. Everything else becomes your enemy—feared and |
| Tx:24.34 | and salvation can only mean destruction of the world, except | yourself. |
| Tx:24.36 | You can but hurt | yourself. This has been oft repeated but is difficult to grasp as |
| Tx:24.43 | already loosened from the bone and sightless holes for eyes, is like | yourself? |
| Tx:24.45 | His love for God replaces all the fear you thought you saw within | yourself. His holiness shows you Himself in him whose hand you hold |
| Tx:24.45 | hand you hold and whom you lead to Him. And what you see is like | yourself. For what but Christ is there to see and hear and love and |
| Tx:24.47 | And would He give a brother unto you except he be as perfect as | yourself and just as like to Him in holiness as you must be? |
| Tx:24.48 | be doubt before there can be conflict. And every doubt must be about | yourself. Christ has no doubt, and from His certainty His quiet |
| Tx:24.49 | is so lies in your brother, offered you that all your doubts about | yourself may disappear before his holiness. See in him God's |
| Tx:24.51 | your own. It is His Will you share His love for you and look upon | yourself as lovingly as He conceived of you before the world began |
| Tx:24.52 | by time, and all appearances, you will not know the Father nor | yourself. For you will use the world for what is not its purpose and |
| Tx:24.55 | in your brother's holiness that you might see the truth about | yourself set forth at last in terms you recognized and understood? |
| Tx:24.56 | it is not a part of him who stands beside you. He is the mirror of | yourself wherein you see the judgment you have laid on both of you. |
| Tx:24.58 | be what governs part of God holds not for all the rest. You place | yourself under the laws you see as ruling him. Think, then, how great |
| Tx:24.59 | Specialness is the function which you gave | yourself. It stands for you alone, as self-created, self-maintained, |
| Tx:24.65 | Ask | yourself this: can you protect the mind? The body, yes, a little— |
| Tx:24.70 | Look at | yourself, and you will see a body. Look at this body in a different |
| Tx:24.70 | your hands and hear it move. Here is an image that you want to be | yourself. It is the means to make your wish come true. It gives the |
| Tx:24.71 | Thus is the body made a theory of | yourself with no provisions made for evidence beyond itself and no |
| Tx:24.72 | without a meeting-place and no encounter. One do you see outside | yourself, your own beloved son. The other rests within, His Father's |
| Tx:25.5 | that you are there. And every body that you look upon reminds you of | yourself—your sinfulness, your evil, and above all, your death. And |
| Tx:25.5 | message and the messenger are one. And you must see your brother as | yourself. Framed in his body, you will see your sinfulness wherein |
| Tx:25.6 | Perception is a choice of what you want | yourself to be—the world you want to live in and the state in which |
| Tx:25.6 | where you think your safety lies, at your decision. It reveals | yourself to you as you would have you be. And always is it faithful |
| Tx:25.14 | you still from giving up the hopeless and unrewarding task you set | yourself. Can it make sense to hold the fixed belief that there is |
| Tx:25.21 | Forgive your brother, and you cannot separate | yourself from him nor from his Father. You need no forgiveness, for |
| Tx:25.22 | him the sinfulness he sees, but give him honor that you may esteem | yourself and him. To each of you is given the power of salvation that |
| Tx:25.35 | Would you not do this for the love of God? And for | yourself? For think what it would do for you. Your “evil” thoughts |
| Tx:25.38 | be afraid with “enemies” like these? And must you not be fearful of | yourself? For you have hurt yourself and made your Self your “enemy.” |
| Tx:25.38 | these? And must you not be fearful of yourself? For you have hurt | yourself and made your Self your “enemy.” And now you must believe |
| Tx:25.38 | And now you must believe you are not you but something alien to | yourself and “something else,” a “something” to be feared instead of |
| Tx:25.42 | walk the way you pointed out to him because it is your judgment on | yourself. |
| Tx:25.50 | And if the Holy Spirit can commute each sentence that you laid upon | yourself into a blessing, then it cannot be a sin. Sin is the one |
| Tx:25.56 | needs and to the special time and place in which you think you find | yourself and where you can be free of place and time and all that you |
| Tx:25.63 | this He needs—that you prefer He take it than that you keep it for | yourself alone and recognize that what brings loss to no one you |
| Tx:25.71 | what you see He offers you and what you recognize you could not give | yourself. |
| Tx:25.72 | you deserve but understands as well that you cannot accept it for | yourself. It is His special function to hold out to you the gifts the |
| Tx:25.75 | world, which is but shadows of all that is really happening within | yourself. The understanding which you need comes not of you but from |
| Tx:25.77 | love decide and never fear that you in your unfairness will deprive | yourself of what God's justice has allotted you. |
| Tx:25.84 | to solve for you means that you want it solved. To keep it for | yourself to solve without His help is to decide it should remain |
| Tx:25.86 | That is why your sole responsibility must be to take forgiveness for | yourself. The miracle that you receive, you give. Each one becomes an |
| Tx:26.1 | —a giving up of power in the name of saving just a little for | yourself. To see a brother in another body separate from yours is the |
| Tx:26.3 | incomplete to keep its own identity intact. In this perception of | yourself, the body's loss would be a sacrifice indeed. For sight of |
| Tx:26.3 | limits on each brother whom you see. For you must see him as you see | yourself. |
| Tx:26.5 | to every meager scrap and tiny crumb of happiness that you allot | yourself. |
| Tx:26.6 | But judge him not, for you will hear no song of liberation for | yourself nor see what it is given him to witness to that you may see |
| Tx:26.14 | give but some mistakes to be corrected while you keep the others to | yourself, remember this: justice is total. There is no such thing as |
| Tx:26.14 | not look at what is there to see? Each time you keep a problem for | yourself to solve or judge that it is one which has no resolution, |
| Tx:26.15 | that some injustices are fair and good and necessary to preserve | yourself. It is these problems that you think are great and cannot be |
| Tx:26.38 | Father has ensured must come to you. And from your own unfairness to | yourself has He protected you. You cannot lose your way because there |
| Tx:26.54 | Sins are beliefs which you impose between your brother and | yourself. They limit you to time and place and give a little space to |
| Tx:26.54 | Forgiveness takes away what stands between your brother and | yourself. It is the wish that you be joined with him and not apart. |
| Tx:26.62 | same. If you believe what is the same is different, you but deceive | yourself. What God calls one will be forever one, not separate. His |
| Tx:26.78 | still? Forget not that a shadow held between your brother and | yourself obscures the face of Christ and memory of God. And would you |
| Tx:26.87 | are is but another form of the idea you are deprived by someone not | yourself. Projection of the cause of sacrifice is at the root of |
| Tx:26.87 | be unfair and not your just deserts. Yet it is you who ask this of | yourself in deep injustice to the Son of God. You have no enemy |
| Tx:26.87 | in deep injustice to the Son of God. You have no enemy except | yourself, and you are enemy indeed to him because you do not know him |
| Tx:26.87 | and you are enemy indeed to him because you do not know him as | yourself. What could be more unjust than that he be deprived of what |
| Tx:26.88 | Beware of the temptation to perceive | yourself unfairly treated. In this view, you seek to find an |
| Tx:26.89 | one goal is but to take away all purpose from the world and from | yourself. And each unfairness that the world appears to lay upon you, |
| Tx:26.90 | brought can you perceive to lighten up your way. And so you see | yourself deprived of light, abandoned to the dark, unfairly left |
| Tx:27.1 | or you will weave a crown of thorns from which your brother and | yourself will not escape. You cannot crucify yourself alone. And if |
| Tx:27.1 | which your brother and yourself will not escape. You cannot crucify | yourself alone. And if you are unfairly treated, he must suffer the |
| Tx:27.1 | he must suffer the unfairness that you see. You cannot sacrifice | yourself alone. For sacrifice is total. If it could occur at all, it |
| Tx:27.2 | do you see as proof that he is guilty of attack. Thus would you make | yourself to be the sign that he has lost his innocence and need but |
| Tx:27.2 | to him, and when it rests on him are you set free. Wish not to make | yourself a living symbol of his guilt, for you will not escape the |
| Tx:27.3 | where you are beyond attack and prove his innocence. The picture of | yourself you offer him you show yourself and give it all your faith. |
| Tx:27.3 | prove his innocence. The picture of yourself you offer him you show | yourself and give it all your faith. The Holy Spirit offers you to |
| Tx:27.3 | your faith. The Holy Spirit offers you to give to him a picture of | yourself in which there is no pain and no reproach at all. And what |
| Tx:27.7 | represent. And each has many voices, speaking to your brother and | yourself in different tongues. And yet to both the message is the |
| Tx:27.10 | brother that sin can have no cause. How futile must it be to see | yourself a picture of the proof that what your function is can never |
| Tx:27.12 | of a purpose to a thing you made to hide your function from | yourself. This thing without a purpose cannot hide the function that |
| Tx:27.16 | is not real unless it brings a healing to your brother and | yourself. You must attest his sins had no effect on you to |
| Tx:27.16 | In their undoing lies the proof that they were merely errors. Let | yourself be healed that you may be forgiving, offering salvation to |
| Tx:27.16 | that you may be forgiving, offering salvation to your brother and | yourself. A broken body shows the mind has not been healed. A miracle |
| Tx:27.19 | an equal gift of full deliverance from guilt upon your brother and | yourself. Your healing saves him pain as well as you, and you are |
| Tx:27.22 | Identity and function are the same, and by your function do you know | yourself. And thus, if you confuse your function with the function of |
| Tx:27.22 | function with the function of Another, you must be confused about | yourself and who you are. What is the separation but a wish to take |
| Tx:27.26 | will not even see. The focus of correction has been placed outside | yourself on one who cannot be a part of you while this perception |
| Tx:27.26 | focus of your hate, unworthy to be part of you and thus outside | yourself—the other half which is denied. And only what is left |
| Tx:27.47 | A dying world asks only that you rest an instant from attack upon | yourself, that it be healed. |
| Tx:27.49 | taught. No reinforcement will its thanks withhold from you who let | yourself be healed that it might live. It will call forth its |
| Tx:27.52 | unlimited. Your part is merely to apply what He has taught you to | yourself, and He will do the rest. And thus the power of your |
| Tx:27.53 | will learn that peace is given you when you accept the healing for | yourself. Its total value need not be appraised by you to let you |
| Tx:27.67 | beheld. In separation from your brother was the first attack upon | yourself begun. And it is this the world bears witness to. Seek not |
| Tx:27.68 | guilt was not among them. Nor did you in any way request them for | yourself. This is how all illusions come about. The one who makes |
| Tx:27.72 | A brother separated from | yourself, an ancient enemy, a murderer who stalks you in the night |
| Tx:27.83 | done to you. The guilt for what you thought is being placed outside | yourself and on a guilty world which dreams your dreams and thinks |
| Tx:27.84 | this petulant device to keep your innocence by pushing guilt outside | yourself but never letting go! It is not easy to perceive the jest |
| Tx:27.86 | The secret of salvation is but this: that you are doing this unto | yourself. No matter what the form of the attack, this still is true. |
| Tx:27.89 | lesson truly learned. Salvation is a secret you have kept but from | yourself. The universe proclaims it so. Yet to its witnesses you pay |
| Tx:27.90 | This is the obvious—a secret kept from no one but | yourself. And it is this that has maintained you separate from the |
| Tx:28.6 | attributes with which you seek to keep concealed the truth about | yourself. Time neither takes away nor can restore. And yet you make |
| Tx:28.7 | Remember nothing that you taught | yourself, for you were badly taught. And who would keep a senseless |
| Tx:28.18 | your “creations,” you the “other” mind, creating with effects unlike | yourself. And as their “father,” you must be like them. Nothing at |
| Tx:28.18 | must be like them. Nothing at all has happened but that you have put | yourself to sleep and dreamed a dream in which you were an alien to |
| Tx:28.18 | yourself to sleep and dreamed a dream in which you were an alien to | yourself and but a part of someone else's dream. |
| Tx:28.33 | be gone and clutch them not with eager hands, to keep them for | yourself. The miracle will brush them all aside and thus make room |
| Tx:28.37 | Accepting the Atonement for | yourself means not to give support to someone's dream of sickness and |
| Tx:28.38 | form they take, for you will lose identity in them. You find | yourself by not accepting them as causing you and giving you effects. |
| Tx:28.38 | you are but a dream. And what is real and what is but illusion in | yourself you do not know and cannot tell apart. |
| Tx:28.53 | behold the innocence and emptiness of sin that you will see within | yourself when you have lost the fear of recognizing love. |
| Tx:28.57 | apart. This is the secret oath you take again, whenever you perceive | yourself attacked. No one can suffer if he does not see himself |
| Tx:28.61 | because it is a part of God Himself. Are you not sick if you deny | yourself your wholeness and your health, the Source of help, the Call |
| Tx:29.1 | do you believe, when you perceive a gap between your brother and | yourself. How could you trust Him, then? For He must be deceptive in |
| Tx:29.10 | on it as a simple way, without a sacrifice or any loss, to find | yourself in Heaven and in God? Until you realize you give up nothing, |
| Tx:29.16 | To change is to attain a state unlike the one in which you found | yourself before. There is no change in immortality, and Heaven knows |
| Tx:29.22 | You cannot wake | yourself. Yet you can let yourself be wakened. You can overlook your |
| Tx:29.22 | You cannot wake yourself. Yet you can let | yourself be wakened. You can overlook your brother's dreams. So |
| Tx:29.33 | This sacred Son of God is like | yourself—the mirror of his Father's love for you, the soft reminder |
| Tx:29.37 | dreams are means to step aside from dreaming of a world outside | yourself. And leading finally beyond all dreams unto the peace of |
| Tx:29.40 | for you and establish it as changeless and eternal. You can give | yourself a purpose that you do not have. But you can not remove the |
| Tx:29.43 | Seek not outside | yourself. For it will fail, and you will weep each time an idol |
| Tx:29.43 | and find the happiness His answer brings. Seek not outside | yourself. For all your pain comes simply from a futile search for |
| Tx:29.43 | But it is given you to know the truth and not to seek for it outside | yourself. |
| Tx:29.46 | loss. And by this giving up is life renounced. Seek not outside | yourself. The search implies you are not whole within and fear to |
| Tx:29.46 | and fear to look upon your devastation and prefer to seek outside | yourself for what you are. |
| Tx:29.48 | maintain allegiance to the dream that you must find what is outside | yourself to be complete and happy. It is vain to worship idols in the |
| Tx:29.48 | Him. No idol takes His place. Look not to idols. Do not seek outside | yourself. Let us forget the purpose of the world the past has given |
| Tx:29.49 | what it is for. You try to see in it a place of idols found outside | yourself, with power to make complete what is within by splitting |
| Tx:29.51 | do not seek to drown His Voice in chants of deep despair to idols of | yourself. Seek not outside your Father for your hope. For hope of |
| Tx:29.55 | face of Christ because its purpose is to separate your brother from | yourself. A dark and fearful purpose, yet a thought without the power |
| Tx:29.61 | raise him up? Hear then your story in the dream you made, and ask | yourself if it be not the truth that you believe that it is not a |
| Tx:29.62 | can he know the Self he has condemned. Judge not, because you make | yourself a part of evil dreams where idols are your “true” identity |
| Tx:29.62 | your salvation from the judgment laid in terror and in guilt upon | yourself. |
| Tx:29.70 | dreams remind you that you live in safety and have not attacked | yourself. So do your childish terrors melt away and dreams become a |
| Tx:30.2 | to form which sees you through the rest. It is not wise to let | yourself become preoccupied with every step you take. The proper set, |
| Tx:30.2 | strong and dedication weak, you are not ready. Do not fight | yourself. But think about the kind of day you want and tell yourself |
| Tx:30.2 | fight yourself. But think about the kind of day you want and tell | yourself there is a way in which this very day can happen just like |
| Tx:30.7 | time you think of it and have a quiet moment for reflection, tell | yourself again the kind of day you want, the feelings you would have, |
| Tx:30.10 | an answer that will work. Be certain this has happened if you feel | yourself unwilling to sit by and ask to have the answer given you. |
| Tx:30.10 | and ask to have the answer given you. This means you have decided by | yourself and cannot see the question. Now you need a quick |
| Tx:30.11 | is not part of it. Then realize that you have asked a question by | yourself and must have set an answer in your terms. Then say, |
| Tx:30.14 | want. This can be very hard to realize when once you have decided by | yourself the rules which promise you a happy day. Yet this decision |
| Tx:30.20 | to let you go ahead with just a few more steps you need to let | yourself be helped. |
| Tx:30.29 | begin a happy day with the determination not to make decisions by | yourself. This seems to be a real decision in itself. And yet, you |
| Tx:30.29 | be a real decision in itself. And yet, you cannot make decisions by | yourself. The only question really is with what you choose to make |
| Tx:30.29 | a simple statement of a simple fact. You will not make decisions by | yourself whatever you decide. For they are made with idols or with |
| Tx:30.31 | are not made in isolation. They are made by you and your advisor for | yourself and for the world as well. The day you want you offer to the |
| Tx:30.32 | you will have the day you want and give it to the world by having it | yourself. Your judgment has been lifted from the world by your |
| Tx:30.33 | Do you not understand that to oppose the Holy Spirit is to fight | yourself? He tells you but your will; He speaks for you. In His |
| Tx:30.34 | willing you be free. And to oppose Him is to make a choice against | yourself and choose that you be bound. |
| Tx:30.40 | unlimited. To seek a special person or a thing to add to you to make | yourself complete can only mean that you believe some form is |
| Tx:30.40 | search for wholeness to be made beyond the boundaries of limits on | yourself. |
| Tx:30.49 | are the false ideas you made to fill the gap you think arose between | yourself and what is true. And you attack them for the things you |
| Tx:30.52 | which guarantee your safety. All illusions that you believe about | yourself obey no laws. They seem to dance a little while, according |
| Tx:30.54 | will forever place you far beyond deception. You need not concern | yourself with how this will be done, for this you cannot understand. |
| Tx:30.55 | no longer for the things you do not want. And you are asked to let | yourself be free of all the dreams of what you never were and seek no |
| Tx:30.62 | the goal of sin and guilt. And all that stood between your image of | yourself and what you are, forgiveness washes joyfully away. Yet God |
| Tx:30.62 | what is his be given back to him. The gap between your brother and | yourself was never there. And what the Son of God knew in creation, |
| Tx:30.75 | from guilt for you. What can this be except a false forgiveness of | yourself and everyone who seems apart from you? |
| Tx:30.76 | You must forgive God's Son entirely. Or you will keep an image of | yourself that is not whole and will remain afraid to look within and |
| Tx:30.78 | is no way to think of him but this if you would know the truth about | yourself: |
| Tx:30.91 | is given you, but not of God Who knows no limits. You have limited | yourself. |
| Tx:31.11 | disaster and disunity and pain. Hear not the call for this within | yourself. But listen, rather, to the deeper call beyond it that |
| Tx:31.15 | there appears to be the hope of satisfaction and of peace. You see | yourself divided into both these roles, forever split between the |
| Tx:31.15 | the two. And every friend or enemy becomes a means to help you save | yourself from this. |
| Tx:31.17 | For he is asking what will come to you because you see an image of | yourself and hear your voice requesting what you want. |
| Tx:31.23 | all appearances, which are but ancient lessons that you taught | yourself about the sinfulness in you. Hear but his call for mercy and |
| Tx:31.24 | as a brother, must his Father be the same as yours, as he is like | yourself. |
| Tx:31.27 | your reality? And why do you attack them everywhere, except you hate | yourself? Are you a sin? You answer “yes” whenever you attack, for by |
| Tx:31.32 | and there will be no ancient penalty exacted from your brother or | yourself. For God has said there is no sacrifice that can be asked; |
| Tx:31.40 | and you can but decide how you would choose the better to deceive | yourself again. This course attempts to teach no more than that the |
| Tx:31.40 | in the world depend on this—you choose between your brother and | yourself, and you will gain as much as he will lose, and what you |
| Tx:31.42 | There is no road that leads away from Him. A journey from | yourself does not exist. How foolish and insane it is to think that |
| Tx:31.42 | it, walking there without your own reality at one with you? Forgive | yourself your madness and forget all senseless journeys and all |
| Tx:31.44 | A concept of the self is made by you. It bears no likeness to | yourself at all. It is an idol, made to take the place of your |
| Tx:31.50 | begun and ended with the single aim of teaching you this concept of | yourself, that you will choose to follow this world's laws and never |
| Tx:31.50 | and never seek to go beyond its roads nor realize the way you see | yourself. Now must the Holy Spirit find a way to help you see this |
| Tx:31.52 | and merely think of this—there are two parts to what you think | yourself to be. If one was generated by your brother, who was there |
| Tx:31.57 | interacts with evil and reacts to wicked things? Your concept of | yourself will still remain quite meaningless. And you will not |
| Tx:31.57 | And you will not perceive that you can interact but with | yourself. To see a guilty world is but the sign your learning has |
| Tx:31.57 | learning has been guided by the world, and you behold it as you see | yourself. The concept of the self embraces all you look upon, and |
| Tx:31.58 | show the changes in your own relationships as your perception of | yourself is changed. There will be some confusion every time there is |
| Tx:31.65 | not where you believe you are nor what you think the truth about | yourself must really be. It makes no difference what you look upon |
| Tx:31.66 | Son of God as you would have him be, forget not that no concept of | yourself will stand against the truth of what you are. Undoing truth |
| Tx:31.69 | form, with content still concealed, to shake your sorry concept of | yourself and blacken it with still another “crime.” You cannot give |
| Tx:31.69 | yourself and blacken it with still another “crime.” You cannot give | yourself your innocence, for you are too confused about yourself. But |
| Tx:31.69 | cannot give yourself your innocence, for you are too confused about | yourself. But should one brother dawn upon your sight as wholly |
| Tx:31.69 | your sight as wholly worthy of forgiveness, then your concept of | yourself is wholly changed. Your “evil” thoughts have been forgiven |
| Tx:31.70 | a shadow circling round the good. And this will be your concept of | yourself, when you have reached the world beyond the sight your eyes |
| Tx:31.71 | You live in that world just as much as this. For both are concepts of | yourself which can be interchanged, but never jointly held. The |
| Tx:31.71 | is far greater than you think, for you will love this concept of | yourself because it was not made for you alone. Born as a gift for |
| Tx:31.71 | made for you alone. Born as a gift for someone not perceived to be | yourself, it has been given you. For your forgiveness, offered unto |
| Tx:31.72 | Have faith in him who walks with you, so that your fearful concept of | yourself may change. And look upon the good in him that you may not |
| Tx:31.72 | more than this is asked. On its behalf, remember what the concept of | yourself which now you hold has brought you in its wake, and welcome |
| Tx:31.72 | need for it is just the same as yours. And let the cruel concept of | yourself be changed to one which brings the peace of God. |
| Tx:31.73 | The concept of | yourself which now you hold would guarantee your function here remain |
| Tx:31.73 | have it yours. Alternatives are in your mind to use, and you can see | yourself another way. Would you not rather look upon yourself as |
| Tx:31.73 | and you can see yourself another way. Would you not rather look upon | yourself as needed for salvation of the world instead of as |
| Tx:31.76 | a space between you and your brother, kept apart by an illusion of | yourself which holds him off from you and you away from him. The |
| Tx:31.76 | sword of judgment is the weapon which you give to the illusion of | yourself that it may fight to keep the space that holds your brother |
| Tx:31.76 | love. Yet while you hold this sword, you must perceive the body as | yourself, for you are bound to separation from the sight of him who |
| Tx:31.77 | in hell and misery? And what could this give rise to but an image of | yourself that can be miserable and remain in hell and torment? Who |
| Tx:31.79 | you are the thing you wish to be. It will remain your concept of | yourself until the wish that fathered it no longer is held dear. But |
| Tx:31.79 | simple choice of whether you would join with what you see or keep | yourself apart and separate. |
| Tx:31.80 | of what your brother is as it is free of any judgment made upon | yourself. It sees no past in anyone at all. And thus it serves a |
| Tx:31.81 | remembering that it is but a wish, insane and meaningless, to make | yourself a thing which you are not. And think as well upon the thing |
| Tx:31.88 | prevail in every circumstance and every place you raised an image of | yourself before. For what appears to hide the face of Christ is |
| Tx:31.89 | Learn then the happy habit of response to all temptation to perceive | yourself as weak and miserable with these words: |
| Tx:31.92 | as weakness and as suffering and loss is but temptation to perceive | yourself defenseless and in hell. Yield not to this, and you will see |
| W1:I.4 | specificity. Each one applies to every situation in which you find | yourself and to everything you see in it. Each day's exercises are |
| W1:I.5 | None of this will matter nor decrease their efficacy. But allow | yourself to make no exceptions in applying the ideas the exercises |
| W1:4.1 | only the thoughts you think are “bad.” You will find, if you train | yourself to look at your thoughts, that they represent such a mixture |
| W1:5.8 | You may also find | yourself less willing to apply today's idea to some perceived sources |
| W1:6.4 | the idea to some upsetting thoughts more than to others, remind | yourself of the two cautions stated in the previous lesson: |
| W1:10.4 | and introduce them by repeating the idea for today quite slowly to | yourself. Then add: |
| W1:11.2 | previous ones. Begin with eyes closed, and repeat the idea slowly to | yourself. Then open your eyes and look about, near or far, up or down |
| W1:11.2 | the minute or so to be spent in using the idea, merely repeat it to | yourself, being sure to do so without haste and with no sense of |
| W1:11.3 | exercises, close your eyes and repeat the idea once more, slowly, to | yourself. |
| W1:12.2 | with eyes open. Look around you, this time quite slowly. Try to pace | yourself so that the slow shifting of your glance from one thing to |
| W1:12.2 | even tempo throughout. What you see does not matter. You teach | yourself this as you give whatever your glance rests on equal |
| W1:12.3 | As you look about you, say to | yourself: |
| W1:13.3 | illusions are safety devices, as they must also be to you who equate | yourself with the ego. |
| W1:13.4 | from the preceding ones. With eyes closed, repeat today's idea to | yourself. Then open your eyes and look about you slowly, saying: |
| W1:13.6 | Repeat this statement to | yourself as you look about. Then close your eyes and conclude with: |
| W1:13.8 | concluding statement. Whatever form such resistance may take, remind | yourself that you are really afraid of such a thought because of the |
| W1:15.4 | In practicing the idea for today, repeat it first to | yourself, and then apply it to whatever you see around you, using its |
| W1:15.6 | to continue to look at each subject while you repeat the idea to | yourself. The idea should be repeated quite slowly each time. |
| W1:16.5 | as each one crosses your mind, hold it in awareness while you tell | yourself: |
| W1:17.2 | In applying today's idea, say to | yourself, with eyes open: |
| W1:20.1 | of the world depends on it. Yet you will not see if you regard | yourself as being coerced and if you give in to resentment and |
| W1:21.2 | In the practice periods, begin by repeating the idea to | yourself. Then close your eyes and search your mind carefully for |
| W1:21.4 | attack thoughts present themselves, hold each one in mind and tell | yourself: |
| W1:22.3 | slowly from one object to another, from one body to another, say to | yourself: |
| W1:22.5 | At the end of each practice period, ask | yourself: |
| W1:23.4 | You see the world which you have made, but you do not see | yourself as the image-maker. You cannot be saved from the world, but |
| W1:23.6 | today's idea. As you look about you, repeat the idea slowly to | yourself and then close your eyes and devote about a minute to |
| W1:24.9 | for each unresolved situation that crosses your mind, say to | yourself: |
| W1:26.3 | The idea for today introduces the thought that you always attack | yourself. If attack thoughts must entail the belief that you are |
| W1:26.3 | you in your own eyes. Thus they have attacked your perception of | yourself. And because you believe in them, you can no longer believe |
| W1:26.3 | And because you believe in them, you can no longer believe in | yourself. A false image of yourself has come to take the place of |
| W1:26.3 | in them, you can no longer believe in yourself. A false image of | yourself has come to take the place of what you are. |
| W1:26.13 | After you have named each outcome of which you are afraid, tell | yourself: |
| W1:27.6 | occupied at the time. You can still repeat one short sentence to | yourself without disturbing anything that is going on. |
| W1:27.7 | you were repeating today's idea, you can be sure that you have saved | yourself many years of effort. |
| W1:28.4 | all else I want to see this table differently,” you are committing | yourself to seeing. It is not an exclusive commitment. It is a |
| W1:29.4 | follow a now familiar pattern: begin with repeating the idea to | yourself, and then apply it to randomly chosen subjects about you, |
| W1:29.7 | hour, looking slowly about you as you say the words unhurriedly to | yourself. At least once or twice you should experience a sense of |
| W1:30.3 | throughout the day. Whenever you have a moment or so, repeat it to | yourself slowly, looking about you and trying to realize that the |
| W1:31.3 | As you sit and quietly watch your thoughts, repeat today's idea to | yourself as often as you care to, but with no sense of hurry. |
| W1:31.4 | the idea for today as often as possible during the day. Remind | yourself that you are making a declaration of independence in the |
| W1:31.5 | It is a declaration that you will not yield to it and put | yourself in bondage. |
| W1:32.3 | or three times while looking around at the world you see as outside | yourself. Then close your eyes and look around your inner world. Try |
| W1:32.4 | select a time when few distractions are anticipated and when you | yourself feel reasonably ready. |
| W1:32.6 | to any situation which may distress you. Apply the idea by telling | yourself: |
| W1:33.2 | Merely glance casually around the world you perceive as outside | yourself, then close your eyes and survey your inner thoughts with |
| W1:33.5 | to take a minute or so to sit quietly and repeat the idea to | yourself several times. Closing your eyes will probably help in this |
| W1:34.4 | in thinking of specific subjects, continue to repeat the idea to | yourself in an unhurried manner, without applying it to anything in |
| W1:34.5 | peace of mind is threatened in any way. The purpose is to protect | yourself from temptation throughout the day. If a specific form of |
| W1:34.7 | until you feel some sense of relief. It will help you if you tell | yourself specifically: |
| W1:35.1 | Today's idea does not describe the way you see | yourself now. It does, however, describe what vision will show you. |
| W1:35.2 | are part of where you think you are. That is because you surround | yourself with the environment you want. And you want it to protect |
| W1:35.2 | the environment you want. And you want it to protect the image of | yourself that you have made. The image is part of this environment. |
| W1:35.3 | The idea for today presents a very different view of | yourself. By establishing your Source, it establishes your Identity, |
| W1:35.4 | practice periods today, begin by repeating today's idea to | yourself and then close your eyes and search your mind for the |
| W1:35.4 | mind for the various kinds of descriptive terms in which you see | yourself. Include all of the ego-based attributes which you ascribe |
| W1:35.4 | Include all of the ego-based attributes which you ascribe to | yourself, positive or negative, desirable or undesirable, grandiose |
| W1:35.4 | debased. All of them are equally unreal because you do not look upon | yourself through the eyes of holiness. |
| W1:35.5 | you consider to be the more negative aspects of your perception of | yourself. Toward the latter part of the exercise period, however, |
| W1:35.5 | mind. Try to recognize that the direction of your fantasies about | yourself does not matter. Illusions have no direction in reality. |
| W1:35.11 | day, pick up a specific attribute or attributes you are ascribing to | yourself at the time and apply the idea for today to them, adding the |
| W1:35.11 | If nothing particular occurs to you, merely repeat the idea to | yourself with closed eyes. |
| W1:36.5 | these practice periods, close your eyes and repeat the idea to | yourself. Then open your eyes and continue as before. |
| W1:38.2 | sorrow, and can solve all problems. It can do so in connection with | yourself and with anyone else. It is equal in its power to help |
| W1:38.3 | or suffering in any form that you happen to think of in | yourself or someone else. We will make no distinctions because there |
| W1:39.6 | Begin the practice periods as usual by repeating today's idea to | yourself. Then with closed eyes search out your unloving thoughts in |
| W1:39.10 | several short periods during which you merely repeat today's idea to | yourself slowly a few times. You may also find it helpful to include |
| W1:39.14 | some three or four times an hour and more if possible, you may ask | yourself this question, repeat today's idea, or preferably both. If |
| W1:40.3 | which you associate with being a Son of God, applying them to | yourself. One practice period might, for example, consist of the |
| W1:40.7 | If only a brief period is available, merely telling | yourself that you are blessed as a Son of God will do. |
| W1:42.2 | anywhere, wherever you are and in whatever circumstances you find | yourself. Your passage through time and space is not random. You |
| W1:42.3 | sleep. It is better, however, to wait until you can sit quietly by | yourself at a time when you feel ready than it is to be concerned |
| W1:42.10 | repeat the idea during the day, the more often you will be reminding | yourself that the goal of the course is important to you and that you |
| W1:43.5 | At the beginning of these practice periods, repeat the idea to | yourself with eyes open. Then glance around you for a short time, |
| W1:43.12 | vary according to the circumstances and situations in which you find | yourself during the day. When you are with someone else, for example, |
| W1:44.2 | recognize that light is within, not without. You do not see outside | yourself, nor is the equipment for seeing outside you. An essential |
| W1:44.6 | and fears are meaningless. You might find it helpful to remind | yourself from time to time that to reach light is to escape from |
| W1:45.6 | Begin the exercises for today by repeating the idea to | yourself, closing your eyes as you do so. Spend a fairly short period |
| W1:45.6 | four or five thoughts of your own, repeat the idea again, and tell | yourself gently: |
| W1:45.11 | understanding you have already gained, you should be able to remind | yourself that this is no idle game but an exercise in holiness and an |
| W1:46.1 | forgiveness are binding themselves to them. As you condemn only | yourself, so do you forgive only yourself. |
| W1:46.1 | to them. As you condemn only yourself, so do you forgive only | yourself. |
| W1:46.3 | Begin the longer practice periods by repeating today's idea to | yourself, as usual. Close your eyes as you do so and spend a minute |
| W1:46.6 | of today's practice is to put you in the best position to forgive | yourself. After you have applied the idea for today to all those who |
| W1:46.6 | applied the idea for today to all those who have come to mind, tell | yourself, |
| W1:47.2 | Of | yourself, you can do none of these things. To believe that you can is |
| W1:47.4 | which you have invested with fear, dismissing each one by telling | yourself, |
| W1:47.6 | could deal with the situation successfully. It is not by trusting | yourself that you will gain confidence. But the strength of God in |
| W1:48.2 | whenever possible to close your eyes and repeat the idea slowly to | yourself several times. It is particularly important that you use the |
| W1:50.3 | all seeming difficulties without effort and in sure confidence. Tell | yourself this often today. It is a declaration of release from the |
| W1:50.3 | the belief in idols. It is your acknowledgment of the truth about | yourself. |
| W1:R1.5 | is not done by avoiding them and seeking a haven of isolation for | yourself. You will yet learn that peace is part of you and requires |
| W1:61.1 | God's Son? This, then, is merely a statement of the truth about | yourself. It is the opposite of a statement of pride, of arrogance, |
| W1:61.4 | to all temptation. It brings all the images you have made about | yourself to the truth and helps you depart in peace, unburdened and |
| W1:61.5 | one need not exceed a minute or two. They should begin with telling | yourself: |
| W1:61.7 | Let a few related thoughts come to you, and repeat the idea to | yourself if your mind wanders away from the central thought. |
| W1:61.8 | Thus you will awaken with an acknowledgment of the truth about | yourself, reinforce it throughout the day, and turn to sleep as you |
| W1:62.1 | light of the world. Through your forgiveness does the truth about | yourself return to your memory. Therefore in your forgiveness lies |
| W1:62.2 | Illusions about | yourself and the world are one. That is why all forgiveness is a gift |
| W1:62.2 | and the world are one. That is why all forgiveness is a gift to | yourself. Your goal is to find out who you are, having denied your |
| W1:62.5 | As often as you can, closing your eyes if possible, say to | yourself: |
| W1:64.2 | To the Holy Spirit, the world is a place where you learn to forgive | yourself what you think of as your sins. In this perception, the |
| W1:64.3 | this and only the fear of the ego that induces you to regard | yourself as unworthy of the task assigned to you by God Himself. |
| W1:64.6 | Prepare | yourself in advance for all the decisions you will make today by |
| W1:64.11 | the thoughts and look slowly and unselectively about you, telling | yourself: |
| W1:65.1 | and the relinquishment of all the other goals you have invented for | yourself. This is the only way in which you can take your rightful |
| W1:65.2 | It places the key to the door of peace, which you have closed upon | yourself, in your own hands. It gives you the answer to all the |
| W1:65.5 | the idea for today. Then close your eyes, repeat the idea to | yourself once again, and watch your mind carefully to catch whatever |
| W1:65.6 | involvement or concern as possible, dismissing each one by telling | yourself: |
| W1:65.8 | but do not strain or make undue effort in doing this. Then tell | yourself: |
| W1:67.5 | and then try to reach past all your images and preconceptions about | yourself to the truth in you. If Love created you like Itself, this |
| W1:67.6 | need to continue adding other thoughts related to the truth about | yourself. Yet perhaps you will succeed in going past that and through |
| W1:67.6 | to the awareness of a blazing light in which you recognize | yourself as Love created you. Be confident that you will do much |
| W1:67.7 | idea for today as often as you can. You need to hear the truth about | yourself as frequently as possible because your mind is so |
| W1:67.7 | hour, and perhaps even more, it would be most beneficial to remind | yourself that Love created you like Itself. Hear the truth about |
| W1:67.7 | yourself that Love created you like Itself. Hear the truth about | yourself in this. |
| W1:67.8 | the Voice of truth replacing everything that the ego tells you about | yourself with the simple truth about the Son of God. You were created |
| W1:68.1 | a grievance is to forget who you are. To hold a grievance is to see | yourself as a body. It is the decision to let the ego rule your mind |
| W1:68.6 | This has left you alone in all the universe in your perception of | yourself. |
| W1:68.9 | Spend the remainder of the practice period trying to think of | yourself as completely at peace with everyone and everything, safe in |
| W1:68.9 | can harm you in any way. At the end of the practice period tell | yourself: |
| W1:69.6 | have thought about the importance of what you are trying to do for | yourself and the world, try to settle down in perfect stillness, |
| W1:69.9 | of the importance of today's idea to you and your happiness, remind | yourself that your grievances are hiding the light of the world from |
| W1:69.9 | are hiding the light of the world from your awareness. Remind | yourself also that you are not searching for it alone and that you do |
| W1:69.11 | Also, be sure to tell | yourself: |
| W1:70.2 | of accepting today's idea is this: it means that nothing outside | yourself can save you; nothing outside yourself can give you peace. |
| W1:70.2 | it means that nothing outside yourself can save you; nothing outside | yourself can give you peace. But it also means that nothing outside |
| W1:70.2 | yourself can give you peace. But it also means that nothing outside | yourself can hurt you or disturb your peace or upset you in any way. |
| W1:70.10 | which you sought to make real. Recognize that it was not there. Tell | yourself: |
| W1:70.14 | For the short and frequent practice periods today, remind | yourself that your salvation comes from you and nothing but your own |
| W1:71.2 | Thus the source of salvation is constantly perceived as outside | yourself. |
| W1:71.3 | for salvation is thus demanded of everyone and everything except | yourself. |
| W1:71.9 | for your salvation will work, and other plans will not. Do not allow | yourself to become depressed or angry at the second part; it is |
| W1:71.9 | release from all your own insane attempts and mad proposals to free | yourself. They have led to depression and anger. But God's plan will |
| W1:71.13 | In the shorter practice periods tell | yourself often that God's plan for salvation, and only His, will |
| W1:72.7 | Very well. Let us accept this and be glad. As a body, do not let | yourself be deprived of what the body offers. Take the little you can |
| W1:72.8 | and exalt it. But while it stands at the center of your concept of | yourself, you are attacking God's plan for salvation and holding your |
| W1:72.9 | perception has been ruinous to your peace of mind. You have seen | yourself in a body and the truth outside you, locked away from your |
| W1:73.6 | is really Heaven. You know it is not so. You cannot want this for | yourself. There is a point beyond which illusions cannot go. |
| W1:73.8 | We will succeed today if you remember that you will salvation for | yourself. You will to accept God's plan because you share in it. You |
| W1:73.12 | After reminding | yourself of this and determining to keep your will clearly in mind, |
| W1:73.12 | of this and determining to keep your will clearly in mind, tell | yourself with gentle firmness and quiet certainty: |
| W1:74.7 | quickly with any conflict thoughts that may cross your mind. Tell | yourself immediately: |
| W1:74.9 | person or persons and the situation or situations involved, and tell | yourself: |
| W1:74.12 | If you feel | yourself slipping off into withdrawal, quickly repeat the idea for |
| W1:74.13 | be undertaken at regular and predetermined intervals today, say to | yourself: |
| W1:75.5 | lie across the world. Begin the longer practice periods by telling | yourself the glad tidings of your release: |
| W1:75.10 | Tell Him you know you cannot fail because you trust in Him. Tell | yourself you wait in certainty to look upon the world He promised |
| W1:75.11 | periods, too, will be joyful reminders of your release. Remind | yourself every quarter of an hour or so that today is a time for |
| W1:75.15 | in which God would have you be. Keep it in your awareness of | yourself and see it everywhere today, as we celebrate the beginning |
| W1:76.1 | While you would seek for it in things that have no meaning, you bind | yourself to laws that make no sense. Thus do you seek to prove |
| W1:77.2 | Your claim to miracles does not lie in your illusions about | yourself. It does not depend on any magical powers you have ascribed |
| W1:77.2 | It does not depend on any magical powers you have ascribed to | yourself nor on any of the rituals you have devised. It is inherent |
| W1:77.4 | Begin the longer practice periods by telling | yourself quite confidently that you are entitled to miracles. Closing |
| W1:77.4 | that you are entitled to miracles. Closing your eyes, remind | yourself that you are asking only for what is rightfully yours. |
| W1:77.4 | that you are asking only for what is rightfully yours. Remind | yourself also that miracles are never taken from one and given to |
| W1:77.7 | and will also be devoted to a reminder of a simple fact. Tell | yourself often today: |
| W1:77.9 | for. You will recognize these situations; you are not relying on | yourself to find them, you are therefore fully entitled to receive |
| W1:77.10 | to be satisfied with less than the perfect answer. Be quick to tell | yourself, should you be tempted: |
| W1:79.10 | form of problems today. Whenever any difficulty seems to rise, tell | yourself quickly: |
| W1:80.2 | Your only problem has been solved! Repeat this over and over to | yourself today with gratitude and conviction. You have recognized |
| W1:80.2 | aside and seen the light of truth. You have accepted salvation for | yourself by bringing the problem to the answer. And you can recognize |
| W1:80.8 | that do not exist. The means is simple honesty. Do not deceive | yourself about what the problem is, and you must recognize it has |
| W1:91.5 | weakness behind. This is accomplished very simply, as you instruct | yourself that you are not a body. Faith goes to what you want, and |
| W1:91.12 | phase of the exercise period, try to experience these truths about | yourself. Concentrate particularly on the experience of strength. |
| W1:91.14 | Five or six times an hour at reasonably regular intervals remind | yourself that miracles are seen in light. Also, be sure to meet |
| W1:92.10 | Let us give 20 minutes twice today to join this meeting. Let | yourself be brought unto your Self. Its strength will be the light in |
| W1:93.4 | and that light and joy and peace abide in you? Your image of | yourself cannot withstand the Will of God. You think that this is |
| W1:93.7 | but one thought—you are as God created you, not what you made of | yourself. Whatever evil you may think you did, you are as God created |
| W1:93.10 | what God has given you in place of what you have decreed for | yourself. |
| W1:94.6 | long list of attributes, both “good” and “bad,” you have ascribed to | yourself and wait in silent expectancy for the truth. God has Himself |
| W1:94.7 | practicing for the first five minutes of every hour, at least remind | yourself hourly: |
| W1:94.9 | Tell | yourself frequently today that you are as God created you. And be |
| W1:95.1 | idea accurately describes you as God created you. You are one within | yourself and one with Him. Yours is the unity of all creation. Your |
| W1:95.1 | it must be so, only because you believe that you have changed | yourself already. You see yourself as a ridiculous parody on God's |
| W1:95.1 | because you believe that you have changed yourself already. You see | yourself as a ridiculous parody on God's creation—weak, vicious, |
| W1:95.2 | Such is your version of | yourself—a self divided into many warring parts, separate from God, |
| W1:95.14 | Then close your eyes and tell | yourself again, slowly and thoughtfully, attempting to allow the |
| W1:96.1 | Although you are One Self, you experience | yourself as two—as both good and evil, loving and hating, mind and |
| W1:99.9 | Father loves you. All the world of pain is not His Will. Forgive | yourself the thought He wanted this for you. Then let the thought |
| W1:99.15 | to be another self. You have no function that is not of God. Forgive | yourself the one you think you made. Forgiveness and salvation are |
| W1:99.18 | Your only function tells you you are one. Remind | yourself of this between the times you give five minutes to be shared |
| W1:99.18 | minutes to be shared with Him Who shares God's plan with you. Remind | yourself: |
| W1:100.11 | Who calls to you today. And it is Him you answer every time you tell | yourself you are essential to God's plan for the salvation of the |
| W1:101.6 | Joy is just, and pain is but the sign you have misunderstood | yourself. |
| W1:101.9 | these five minutes gladly to remove the heavy load you laid upon | yourself with the insane belief that sin is real. |
| W1:101.10 | goal of peace. There is no sin. Remember this today, and tell | yourself as often as you can: |
| W1:102.7 | these hourly five minute rests, pause frequently today to tell | yourself that you have now accepted happiness as your one function. |
| W1:105.7 | are their right under the equal laws of God. Here you denied them to | yourself. And here you must return to claim them as your own. Think |
| W1:105.9 | Thus you prepare | yourself to recognize God's gifts to you and let your mind be free of |
| W1:105.9 | Now are you ready to experience the joy and peace you have denied | yourself. Now you can say, “God's peace and joy are mine,” for you |
| W1:105.10 | joy be lifted up, and what is yours can come to you at last. So tell | yourself “God's peace and joy are mine,” and close your eyes a while, |
| W1:105.12 | you to deny God's gift to him, see it as but another chance to let | yourself receive the gifts of God as yours. Then bless your brother |
| W1:106.5 | Prepare | yourself for miracles today. Today allow your Father's ancient pledge |
| W1:106.12 | choice to hear and to receive the Word by this reminder, given to | yourself as often as is possible today: |
| W1:107.15 | Do not forget your function for today. Each time you tell | yourself with confidence, “Truth will correct all errors in my mind,” |
| W1:110.1 | it is true. Its truth would mean that you have made no changes in | yourself which have reality, nor changed the universe so that what |
| W1:110.9 | waiting your acknowledgment as you. And you are lost and do not know | yourself while He is unacknowledged and unknown. |
| W1:R3.3 | to devote the time to it which you are asked to give. Do not deceive | yourself in this. Unwillingness can be most carefully concealed |
| W1:R3.7 | in perfect faith that you would see their messages and use them for | yourself. Offer them to your mind in that same trust and confidence |
| W1:121.6 | inherent in a mind which cannot sin. As sin was an idea you taught | yourself, forgiveness must be learned by you as well, but from a |
| W1:121.6 | must be learned by you as well, but from a Teacher other than | yourself, who represents the other Self in you. Through Him you learn |
| W1:121.9 | as you learn to see them both as one, we will extend the lesson to | yourself and see that their escape included yours. |
| W1:121.12 | you one with them and they with you. Now have you been forgiven by | yourself. |
| W1:121.13 | to every unforgiving mind, with yours among them. Every hour tell | yourself: |
| W1:122.5 | calling from beyond the doorway, bidding you to enter in and make | yourself at home where you belong. |
| W1:122.14 | Remind | yourself how precious are these gifts with this reminder, which has |
| W1:123.2 | Be glad today in loving thankfulness your Father has not left you to | yourself, nor let you wander in the dark alone. Be grateful He has |
| W1:124.10 | the glass this holy half an hour will hold out to you to look upon | yourself. When you are ready, you will find it there within your mind |
| W1:124.12 | frame that holds the mirror offered you today by hourly repeating to | yourself: |
| W1:125.5 | from Him. He does not cherish the illusions which you hold about | yourself. He knows His Son and wills that he remain as part of Him |
| W1:125.10 | As every hour passes by today, be still a moment and remind | yourself you have a special purpose for this day—in quiet to |
| W1:126.2 | further think that they can sin without affecting your perception of | yourself, while you can judge their sin and yet remain apart from |
| W1:126.3 | claim on your forgiveness. It holds out a gift to him but hardly to | yourself. |
| W1:126.6 | not a means for your release from what you see in someone other than | yourself. It has no power to restore your unity with him to your |
| W1:126.11 | As often as you can, remind | yourself you have a goal today—an aim which makes this day of |
| W1:126.11 | have a goal today—an aim which makes this day of special value to | yourself and all your brothers. Do not let your mind forget this goal |
| W1:126.11 | brothers. Do not let your mind forget this goal for long, but tell | yourself: |
| W1:128.3 | here. For what you value you make part of you as you perceive | yourself. All things you seek to make your value greater in your |
| W1:128.8 | image of the world, refuse to lay this chain upon your mind and tell | yourself with quiet certainty: |
| W1:131.15 | Seek for that door and find it. But before you try to open it, remind | yourself no one can fail who asks to reach the truth, and it is this |
| W1:131.18 | for you and for the world. If you forget this happy fact, remind | yourself with this: |
| W1:132.6 | is pride that argues you have come into a world quite separate from | yourself, impervious to what you think, and quite apart from what you |
| W1:132.11 | the world from every kind of pain is but to change your mind about | yourself. There is no world apart from your ideas because ideas leave |
| W1:133.17 | of Heaven, which swings open as he comes. Should you begin to let | yourself collect some needless burdens or believe you see some |
| W1:134.3 | is there; to overlook the truth in an unfounded effort to deceive | yourself by making an illusion true. This twisted viewpoint but |
| W1:134.3 | that the idea of sin retains as yet upon your mind as you regard | yourself. |
| W1:134.9 | if one brother has received this gift of you, the door is open to | yourself. There is a very simple way to find the door to true |
| W1:134.17 | consider all the evil things you thought of him, and each time ask | yourself “Would I condemn myself for doing this?” |
| W1:134.18 | chains you sought to lay upon your brother which were laid upon | yourself. |
| W1:134.19 | there will be so many times when you forget its meaning and attack | yourself. When this occurs, allow your mind to see through this |
| W1:134.19 | occurs, allow your mind to see through this illusion as you tell | yourself: |
| W1:135.2 | present as you wish. You operate from the belief you must protect | yourself from what is happening because it must contain what |
| W1:135.26 | You give up nothing in these times today when undefended you present | yourself to your Creator as you really are. |
| W1:135.28 | in you and tempt you to engage in weaving plans, remind | yourself this is a special day for learning, and acknowledge it with |
| W1:136.4 | Who but | yourself evaluates a threat, decides escape is necessary, and sets up |
| W1:136.21 | make plans against uncertainties to come, you have again misplaced | yourself, and made a bodily identity which will attack the body, for |
| W1:136.21 | you longer. Do not be confused about what must be healed, but tell | yourself: |
| W1:137.9 | you need undertake to let His laws replace the ones you made to hold | yourself a prisoner to death. |
| W1:137.10 | you from everything that ever caused you pain. And as you let | yourself be healed, you see all those around you or who cross your |
| W1:138.4 | one to make. And even this but seems to be a choice. Do not confuse | yourself with all the doubts that myriad decisions would induce. You |
| W1:139.2 | one who has refused to recognize himself? Only refusal to accept | yourself could make the question seem to be sincere. The only thing |
| W1:139.3 | To be alive and not to know | yourself is to believe that you are really dead. For what is life |
| W1:139.3 | to believe that you are really dead. For what is life except to be | yourself, and what but you can be alive instead? Who is the doubter? |
| W1:139.5 | split your mind into what knows and does not know the truth. You are | yourself. There is no doubt of this, and yet you doubt it. But you do |
| W1:139.5 | you doubt it. But you do not ask what part of you can really doubt | yourself. It cannot really be a part of you that asks this question, |
| W1:139.6 | Atonement remedies the strange idea that it is possible to doubt | yourself and be unsure of what you really are. This is the depth of |
| W1:139.7 | time Atonement is accepted, and they learn it is impossible to doubt | yourself and not to be aware of what you are. Only acceptance can be |
| W1:139.9 | Fail not your brothers, or you fail | yourself. Look lovingly on them that they may know that they are part |
| W1:139.9 | not to change reality, but merely to accept the truth about | yourself and go your way rejoicing in the endless Love of God. It is |
| W1:139.13 | the fragile nature of the chains that seem to keep the knowledge of | yourself apart from your awareness, as you say: |
| W1:R4.10 | to be reviewed that day. Then close your eyes and say them slowly to | yourself. There is no hurry now, for you are using time for its |
| W1:151.5 | This thing it speaks of and would yet defend it tells you is | yourself. And you believe that this is so with stubborn certainty. |
| W1:151.6 | completely vanquish. You believe to doubt his vassals is to doubt | yourself. Yet you must learn to doubt their evidence will clear the |
| W1:151.6 | must learn to doubt their evidence will clear the way to recognize | yourself and let the Voice for God alone be Judge of what is worthy |
| W1:152.15 | of God for self-deceptions, and God's Son for your illusions of | yourself. |
| W1:155.5 | although you are indeed. Thus can you serve them while you serve | yourself and set their footsteps on the way which God has opened up |
| W1:158.10 | not difficult to learn if you remember in your brother you but see | yourself. If he be lost in sin, so must you be; if you see light in |
| W1:158.10 | you be; if you see light in him, your sins have been forgiven by | yourself. Each brother whom you meet today provides another chance to |
| W1:159.2 | when you give healing. You accept forgiveness as accomplished in | yourself when you forgive. You recognize your brother as yourself and |
| W1:159.2 | in yourself when you forgive. You recognize your brother as | yourself and thus do you perceive that you are whole. There is no |
| W1:160.1 | the ways of love. Identify with fear, and you will be a stranger to | yourself. And thus you are unknown to you. What is your Self remains |
| W1:160.1 | to the part of you which thinks that it is real but different from | yourself. Who could be sane in such a circumstance? Who but a madman |
| W1:160.3 | this stranger in to take your place and let you be a stranger to | yourself? No one would let himself be dispossessed so needlessly |
| W1:166.8 | your poverty in exile? He would make you laugh at this perception of | yourself. Where is self-pity then? And what becomes of all the |
| W1:166.11 | oppresses you and speaks of His companionship when you perceive | yourself as lonely and afraid. |
| W1:167.3 | is due to its centrality in our attempts to change your mind about | yourself. It is the reason you can heal. It is the cause of healing. |
| W1:169.13 | and accept the gifts that grace provided you. You carry them back to | yourself. And revelation stands not far behind. Its coming is |
| W1:170.5 | attack and must have first conceived of it. Yet you attack outside | yourself and separate your mind from him who is to be attacked with |
| W1:181.1 | in your ability to transcend doubt and lack of sure conviction in | yourself. When you attack a brother, you proclaim that he is limited |
| W1:185.10 | And so do all who seem to seek for dreams. For them as well as for | yourself you ask but this when you make this request with deep |
| W1:185.10 | in the attempt. Help has been given you. And would you not avail | yourself of it by sharing it? |
| W1:186.6 | Arrogance makes an image of | yourself that is not real. It is this image which quails and retreats |
| W1:186.6 | to go beyond all images. You are not weak, as is the image of | yourself. You are not ignorant and helpless. Sin cannot tarnish the |
| W1:186.12 | Who knows all things exactly as they are, or a distorted image of | yourself, confused, bewildered, inconsistent and unsure of |
| W1:187.3 | them. If you are to save the world, you first accept salvation for | yourself. But you will not believe that this is done until you see |
| W1:187.6 | Never forget you give but to | yourself. Who understands what giving means must laugh at the idea of |
| W1:188.6 | honest thoughts, untainted by the dream of worldly things outside | yourself, become the holy messengers of God Himself. These thoughts |
| W1:189.7 | concepts you have learned about the world, all images you hold about | yourself. Empty your mind of everything it thinks is either true or |
| W1:190.5 | mind can hurt or injure you in any way. There is no cause beyond | yourself that can reach down and bring oppression. No one but |
| W1:190.5 | beyond yourself that can reach down and bring oppression. No one but | yourself affects you. There is nothing in the world which has the |
| W1:191.2 | and this is what remains. You look on chaos and proclaim it as | yourself. There is no sight that fails to witness this to you. There |
| W1:191.6 | free of your imprisonment. You will not see a devastating image of | yourself walking the world in terror with the world twisting in agony |
| W1:191.7 | Be glad today how very easily is hell undone. You need but tell | yourself: |
| W1:191.11 | You who perceive | yourself as weak and frail, with futile hopes and devastated dreams, |
| W1:191.13 | free. They cannot see the mercy of the world until you find it for | yourself. They suffer pain until you have denied its hold on you. |
| W1:193.12 | God would not have you suffer thus. He would help you forgive | yourself. His Son does not remember who he is. And God would have him |
| W1:195.3 | but try to bring him down to lie in death with you, as useless as | yourself, as little left within his grasping fingers as in yours. |
| W1:196.1 | understood and kept in full awareness, you will not attempt to harm | yourself nor make your body slave to vengeance. You will not attack |
| W1:196.1 | yourself nor make your body slave to vengeance. You will not attack | yourself, and you will realize that to attack another is but to |
| W1:196.1 | and you will realize that to attack another is but to attack | yourself. You will be free of the insane belief that to attack a |
| W1:196.1 | You will be free of the insane belief that to attack a brother saves | yourself. And you will understand his safety is your own, and in his |
| W1:196.5 | hopeless thought that you can make attacks on others and escape | yourself has nailed you to the cross. Perhaps it seemed to be |
| W1:196.6 | if you accept the fearful thought you can attack another and be free | yourself. Until this form is changed, there is no hope. Until you see |
| W1:196.10 | to be an enemy outside you had to fear. And thus a god outside | yourself became your mortal enemy—the source of fear. |
| W1:196.11 | Him to save you from illusions in His Love, calling Him Father and | yourself His Son. Pray that the instant may be soon—today. Step |
| W1:197.2 | Deny your strength, and weakness must become salvation to you. See | yourself as bound, and bars become your home. Nor will you leave the |
| W1:197.5 | to Him and every gift is given Him because it can be given only to | yourself, and what belongs to God must be His own. Yet you will never |
| W1:197.6 | to let forgiveness take away the sins you think you see outside | yourself, and you can never think the gifts of God are lent but for a |
| W1:197.9 | Him the holy thoughts of God. Earn now the gratitude you have denied | yourself when you forgot the function God has given you. But never |
| W1:198.1 | believed that you can injure, and the right you have established for | yourself can be now used against you till you lay it down as |
| W1:198.5 | and accept His gift with gratitude? And is it not a kindness to | yourself to hear His Voice and learn the simple lessons He would |
| W1:198.14 | this single sight and timelessness itself, you see the vision of | yourself and then you disappear forever into God. |
| W1:199.1 | Freedom must be impossible as long as you perceive a body as | yourself. The body is a limit. Who would seek for freedom in a body |
| W1:200.1 | not find peace except the peace of God. Accept this fact, and save | yourself the agony of yet more bitter disappointments, bleak despair, |
| W1:200.3 | succeed. To ask that what is false be true can only fail. Forgive | yourself for vain imaginings, and seek no longer what you cannot |
| W1:200.5 | of your mistakes and honored as he is. You made him not; no more | yourself. And as you free the one, the other is accepted as he is. |
| W2:240.1 | Fear is deception. It attests that you have seen | yourself as you could never be and therefore look upon a world which |
| W2:240.1 | in which it may appear. It witnesses but to your own illusions of | yourself. Let us not be deceived today. We are the Son of God. There |
| W2:253.2 | You are the Self Whom You created Son, creating like | Yourself and one with You. My Self, Which rules the universe, is but |
| W2:264.1 | Love Which holds all things within Itself. Father, Your Son is like | Yourself. We come to You in Your own Name today, to be at peace |
| W2:311.1 | relieve you of the agony of all the judgments you have made against | yourself and re-establish peace of mind by giving you God's Judgment |
| M:I.3 | say that teaches you. Teaching but reinforces what you believe about | yourself. Its fundamental purpose is to diminish self doubt. This |
| M:4.13 | in your brothers. How then could you not have been deceived in | yourself? Judgment implies a lack of trust, and trust remains the |
| M:7.6 | you are has entered your mind, and you have become deceived about | yourself. And you are deceived about yourself, because you have |
| M:7.6 | you have become deceived about yourself. And you are deceived about | yourself, because you have denied the Source of your creation. If you |
| M:11.2 | Again we come to the question of judgment. This time, ask | yourself whether your judgment or the Word of God is more likely to |
| M:15.3 | Is this your judgment on | yourself, teacher of God? Do you believe that this is wholly true? |
| M:15.3 | still your goal—why you are here. It is your function to prepare | yourself to hear this judgment and to recognize that it is true. One |
| M:15.3 | out of time can bring time's end. Judge not, for you but judge | yourself and thus delay this Final Judgment. What is your judgment on |
| M:15.3 | you yet learned to stand aside and hear the Voice of Judgment in | yourself? Or do you still attempt to take His role from Him? Learn to |
| M:16.6 | things are freed within it. You think you made a place of safety for | yourself. You think you made a power that can save you from all the |
| M:17.2 | to pupil. How many times has it been emphasized that you give but to | yourself? And where could this be better shown than in the kinds of |
| M:19.3 | All concepts of your brothers and | yourself, all fears of future states, and all concern about the past |
| M:22.5 | the way, for you have lost it. Turn quickly to your Teacher, and let | yourself be healed. |
| M:23.3 | for help? What did he say about this? Remember his promises, and ask | yourself honestly whether it is likely that he will fail to keep |
| M:23.5 | for love, but only that he might give it to you. You do not love | yourself. But in his eyes your loveliness is so complete and flawless |
| M:27.7 | God is guiltless now and forever. Nothing but this. But do not let | yourself forget it is not less than this. |
| M:29.3 | is obvious. To follow the Holy Spirit's guidance is to let | yourself be absolved of guilt. It is the essence of the Atonement. It |
| M:29.4 | As God created you, you have all power. The image you made of | yourself has none. The Holy Spirit knows the truth about you. The |

| Tx:1.29 | real threat is involved anywhere. Nothing is gained by frightening | yourselves, and it is very destructive to do so. |
| Tx:1.106 | in the plan of Atonement, but you must still choose freely to devote | yourselves to the greater restoration. As long as a single slave |
| Tx:2.95 | you have rejected fear. You have been afraid of God, of me, of | yourselves, and of practically everyone you know at one time or |
| Tx:3.31 | ultimately stem from the fact that you do not recognize or know | yourselves, each other, or God. To recognize means to “know again,” |
| Tx:3.63 | of the tremendous release and deep peace that comes from meeting | yourselves and your brothers totally without judgment. When you |

| Tx:3.65 | really capable of being tired, but you are very capable of wearying | yourselves. The strain of constant judgment is virtually intolerable. |
| Tx:3.72 | will be unable to escape from the prisons which you have made for | yourselves. |
| Tx:4.16 | chosen, therefore, to create unlike Him, and you have made fear for | yourselves. You are not at peace because you are not fulfilling your |
| Tx:4.18 | Release | yourselves and release others. Do not present a false and unworthy |
| Tx:4.18 | of yourself to others, and do not accept such a picture of them | yourselves. The ego has built a shabby and unsheltering home for you |
| Tx:4.19 | Of your egos you can do nothing to save | yourselves or others, but of your Souls you can do everything for the |
| Tx:4.58 | with your mind and urge you to follow my example as you look at | yourselves and at each other and see in both the glorious creations |
| Tx:4.63 | you really considered how many opportunities you have to gladden | yourselves and how many of them you have refused? There is no limit |
| Tx:4.80 | your minds should ask. You do not understand a patient while you | yourselves are willing to limit the questions you raise about his |
| Tx:4.80 | these limits for yours. This makes you unable to heal him and | yourselves. Be always unwilling to adapt to any situation in which |
| Tx:4.84 | We cannot safely let it go at that, however, or you will regard | yourselves as necessarily conflicted as long as you are here, or more |
| Tx:4.85 | The ego is nothing more than a part of your belief about | yourselves. Your other life has continued without interruption and |
| Tx:4.93 | misery with the ego and joy with the Soul. You have conditioned | yourselves the other way around. A far greater reward, however, will |
| Tx:5.1 | told you before to think how many opportunities you have to gladden | yourselves and how many you have refused. This is exactly the same as |
| Tx:5.1 | is exactly the same as telling you that you have refused to heal | yourselves. The light that belongs to you is the light of joy. |
| Tx:5.24 | remaining quiet even in the midst of the turmoil you have made for | yourselves. The Voice for God is always quiet, because it speaks of |
| Tx:5.38 | Holy Spirit is in light because He is in you who are light, but you | yourselves do not know this. It is therefore the task of the Holy |
| Tx:5.39 | You cannot understand | yourselves alone. This is because you have no meaning apart from your |
| Tx:5.55 | would be to forsake myself and God who created me. You will forsake | yourselves and God if you forsake any of your brothers. You are more |
| Tx:5.81 | Your patience with each other is your patience with | yourselves. Is not a Child of God worth patience? I have shown you |
| Tx:5.93 | is now. You have not been asked to work out the plan of salvation | yourselves because, as I told you before, the remedy is not of your |
| Tx:5.95 | wrongly but can as actively decide otherwise. Be very firm with | yourselves in this, and keep yourselves fully aware of the fact that |
| Tx:5.95 | decide otherwise. Be very firm with yourselves in this, and keep | yourselves fully aware of the fact that the undoing process, which |
| Tx:5.95 | error was made and give it over to the Atonement in peace. Say to | yourselves the following as sincerely as you can, remembering that |
| Tx:6.3 | It has indeed been misplaced, but it is a form of faith which you | yourselves have been willing to redirect. You cannot doubt the |
| Tx:6.8 | demonstrated only through joint decision. You are free to perceive | yourselves as persecuted if you choose. You might remember, however, |
| Tx:6.9 | truth in you, and know that it cannot be assailed. Do not protect it | yourselves, or you have believed that it is assailable. You are not |
| Tx:6.14 | you are never called on to sacrifice. On the contrary, by enabling | yourselves to hear the Holy Spirit in others, you can learn from |
| Tx:6.14 | from their experiences and gain from them without experiencing them | yourselves. That is because the Holy Spirit is one, and anyone who |
| Tx:6.32 | enables you to perceive this wholeness now. You can no more pray for | yourselves alone than you can find joy for yourself alone. Prayer is |
| Tx:6.40 | what is not true. From this, which you have made, you have taught | yourselves to believe that you are not what you are. You cannot teach |
| Tx:6.40 | what you have not learned, and what you teach you strengthen in | yourselves because you are sharing it. Every lesson you teach you are |
| Tx:6.41 | why you must teach only one lesson. If you are to be conflict-free | yourselves, you must learn only from the Holy Spirit and teach only |
| Tx:6.52 | it is impossible. You must remember, however, that when you put | yourselves in an impossible situation, you believed that the |
| Tx:6.70 | it is quite apparent that you can teach wrongly and therefore teach | yourselves wrong. Many thought that I was attacking them, even though |
| Tx:6.76 | That is why we suggested before that there was help in reminding | yourselves to allow the Holy Spirit to decide for God for you. |
| Tx:6.84 | minds, because He does not want you to teach errors and learn them | yourselves. He would hardly be consistent if He allowed you to |
| Tx:6.89 | If you allow | yourselves to have in your minds only what God put there, you are |
| Tx:7.15 | of God to those who do not understand them. You could not do this | yourselves, because conflicted minds cannot be faithful to one |
| Tx:7.16 | and requires no learning at all, but when you disinherited | yourselves, you became learners. |
| Tx:7.26 | there, as you do. How can you, who are God's meaning, perceive | yourselves as absent from it? You can see yourselves as separated |
| Tx:7.26 | God's meaning, perceive yourselves as absent from it? You can see | yourselves as separated from your meaning only by experiencing |
| Tx:7.68 | your function as co-creators with God and are therefore depriving | yourselves of joy. This is not God's Will but yours. If your will is |
| Tx:7.73 | that you have forever, but you do need yours. The picture you see of | yourselves is deprived, unloving, and very vulnerable. You cannot |
| Tx:7.75 | Him, and you do do nothing apart from Him. Keep His way to remember | yourselves and teach His way, lest you forget yourselves. Give only |
| Tx:7.75 | His way to remember yourselves and teach His way, lest you forget | yourselves. Give only honor to the Sons of the living God and count |
| Tx:7.75 | yourselves. Give only honor to the Sons of the living God and count | yourselves among them gladly. |
| Tx:7.93 | function. It therefore blocks your joy, and that is why you perceive | yourselves as unfulfilled. Unless you create, you are unfulfilled; |
| Tx:7.96 | of the Sons of God and thus have not failed to secure it for | yourselves. If it was the Will of God to give it to you, He gave it |
| Tx:7.107 | the ego perceives nothing as wholly desirable. By demonstrating to | yourselves that there is no order of difficulty in miracles, you will |
| Tx:7.107 | that there is no order of difficulty in miracles, you will convince | yourselves that in your natural state there is no difficulty, because |
| Tx:7.109 | you can be happy. You cannot make it any more than you can make | yourselves. It has been created for you, as you were created for it. |
| Tx:7.110 | you see and touch and remember are literally denying Heaven to | yourselves. I call upon you again to remember that I have chosen you |
| Tx:7.111 | perception which is immediate, clear, and natural. You have trained | yourselves not to see it, and this has been very difficult for you. |
| Tx:7.112 | You do not know | yourselves, because you do not know your Creator. You do not know |
| Tx:7.112 | creations, because you do not know their creator. You do not know | yourselves, because you do not know yours. |
| Tx:8.5 | Atonement is the opposite of the curriculum you have established for | yourselves, but so is its outcome. If the outcome of yours has made |
| Tx:8.21 | cannot be found alone, and you who are the Kingdom cannot find | yourselves alone. |
| Tx:8.33 | means that you have imprisoned yours and have not let it be free. Of | yourselves you can do nothing, because of yourselves you are nothing. |
| Tx:8.33 | not let it be free. Of yourselves you can do nothing, because of | yourselves you are nothing. I am nothing without the Father, and you |
| Tx:8.43 | of which is true is not yours. If it were, you would have destroyed | yourselves. Yet God did not will the destruction of His creations, |
| Tx:8.43 | having created them for eternity. His Will has saved you, not from | yourselves, but from your illusions of yourselves. He has saved you |
| Tx:8.43 | Will has saved you, not from yourselves, but from your illusions of | yourselves. He has saved you for yourselves. Let us glorify Him whom |
| Tx:8.43 | but from your illusions of yourselves. He has saved you for | yourselves. Let us glorify Him whom the world denies, for over His |
| Tx:8.50 | a very simple reason. You who are God's own treasure do not regard | yourselves as valuable. Given this belief, you cannot understand |
| Tx:8.58 | Rejoice, then, that of | yourselves you can do nothing. You are not of yourselves. He of Whom |
| Tx:8.58 | Rejoice, then, that of yourselves you can do nothing. You are not of | yourselves. He of Whom you are has willed your power and glory for |
| Tx:8.68 | Do not allow | yourselves to suffer from the results of what is not true. Free your |
| Tx:8.94 | to sacrifice anything. But if you ask the sacrifice of reality of | yourselves, the Holy Spirit must remind you that this is not God's |
| Tx:9.79 | my merit that I contribute to you but my love, for you do not value | yourselves. When you do not value yourself, you become sick, but my |
| Tx:9.96 | without the Father, Who alone is his help. We said before that of | yourselves you can do nothing, but you are not of yourselves. If you |
| Tx:9.96 | before that of yourselves you can do nothing, but you are not of | yourselves. If you were, what you have made would be true, and you |
| Tx:9.97 | It is because you did not make | yourselves that you need be troubled by nothing. Your gods are |
| Tx:9.103 | the joy which was created for you for the misery you have made for | yourselves. God has given you the means for undoing what you have |
| Tx:9.107 | eternity, you must learn to look only on the eternal. If you allow | yourselves to become preoccupied with the temporal, you are living in |
| Tx:10.23 | if you did you could never have grown weary. Unless you have hurt | yourselves, you could never suffer in any way, for that is not God's |
| Tx:10.72 | already. You have made many ideas which you have placed between | yourselves and your Creator, and these beliefs are the world as you |
| Tx:10.77 | against truth. You made the problem which God has answered. Ask | yourselves, therefore, but one simple question— |
| Tx:10.88 | my children, are afraid of your brothers and of your Father and of | yourselves. But you are merely deceived in them. |
| Tx:11.7 | Do not attempt to “help” a brother in your way, for you cannot help | yourselves. But hear his call for the help of God, and you will |
| Tx:11.17 | your heads under the covers of the heavy blankets you have laid upon | yourselves. You are hiding your nightmares in the darkness of your |
| Tx:11.32 | and which is the symbol of death. For if you could really separate | yourselves from the Mind of God, you would die, and the world you |
| Tx:11.48 | meaning of love, and that is your handicap. Do not attempt to teach | yourselves what you do not understand, and do not try to set up |
| Tx:11.51 | is merely the result of an honest appraisal of what you have taught | yourselves and of the learning outcomes which have resulted. Under |
| Tx:11.54 | but your Soul as you. He is perfectly aware that you do not know | yourselves and perfectly aware of how to teach you what you are. |
| Tx:11.73 | only by judging as He does, reserving no judgment at all unto | yourselves. For you will judge against yourselves, but He will judge |
| Tx:11.73 | no judgment at all unto yourselves. For you will judge against | yourselves, but He will judge for you. |
| Tx:11.79 | unless He had given you a way to remember, you would have condemned | yourselves to oblivion. |
| Tx:11.81 | the insane desire to control reality. You who cannot even control | yourselves should hardly aspire to control the universe. But look |
| Tx:11.82 | Christ is invisible to you because of what you have made visible to | yourselves. Yet it does not matter how much distance you have tried |
| Tx:11.90 | ego has no life, and God's Son is without guilt. As you look upon | yourselves and judge what you do honestly, as you have been asked to |
| Tx:11.94 | When you have accepted the Atonement for | yourselves, you will realize that there is no guilt in God's Son. And |
| Tx:12.69 | you lose whatever you have gotten in its name. Therefore ask not of | yourselves what you need, for you do not know and your advice unto |
| Tx:12.74 | altars to sacrifice and seek not what you will surely lose. Content | yourselves with what you will as surely keep and be not restless, for |
| Tx:13.11 | and the past, the laws of God must intervene if you would free | yourselves. Atonement stands between them like a lamp that shines so |
| Tx:13.11 | shines so brightly that the chain of darkness in which you bound | yourselves will disappear. |
| Tx:13.28 | You who have been unmerciful unto | yourselves do not remember your Father's Love. And looking without |
| Tx:13.33 | and because of this, I treasure you beyond the value that you set on | yourselves, even unto the worth that God has placed upon you. I love |
| Tx:13.52 | death and murder that your Father shared not with you. You have set | yourselves the task of sharing what cannot be shared. And while you |
| Tx:13.53 | cannot see through it. It deceives you because you chose to deceive | yourselves. Those who choose to be deceived will merely attack direct |
| Tx:13.65 | you. You do not want either alone, for without both, you do not see | yourselves as whole and therefore happy. Yet you are whole only in |
| Tx:13.75 | done to make you worthy of the gift of God. Ask it not therefore of | yourselves. Instead, accept His answer, for He knows that you are |
| Tx:13.82 | You taught | yourselves the most unnatural habit of not communicating with your |
| Tx:14.2 | selves away and valued God so little, hear me speak for Him and for | yourselves. You cannot understand how much your Father loves you, for |
| Tx:14.20 | teach you how to use on your behalf. You who made it to crucify | yourselves must learn of Him how to apply it to the holy cause of |
| Tx:14.29 | was accomplished the instant it was given Him for you. Do not delay | yourselves in your return to peace by wondering how He can fulfill |
| Tx:14.35 | darkened corridors, away from light's center. You may choose to lead | yourselves astray, but you can only be brought together by the Guide |
| Tx:14.35 | truth. They have no opposite, and nothing else can you bestow upon | yourselves. |
| Tx:14.38 | from your Father, for hiding it has cost you knowledge of Him and of | yourselves. The knowledge is safe, but wherein is your safety apart |
| Tx:14.53 | mind, let me assure you that you know nothing of it at all. For of | yourselves you could not know of it. The study of the ego is not the |
| Tx:14.58 | power, and all power is of God. You who have tried to keep power for | yourselves have lost it. You still have the power, but you have |
| Tx:14.58 | awareness of it that you cannot use it. Everything you have taught | yourselves has made your power more and more obscure to you. You know |
